In his address on "The Mission of Methodist to the Methodist Races," Bishop Clinton said in part: This question is but the personal application or the consideration, in its personal hearing of the larger problem in the mission of Christianity to the hard-raced races, and I deem it very appropriate that Methodism should, on such an unequivocal occasion as this, consider this question in so decidedly personal an assent, and this for two chief reasons. First, because we have tried providentially, may I say, in the forefront of the advancing colony of the Protestant church, be the first to hear and interest the cry that comes from the hard-raced races, like some Macedonian attend at once plaintive and insistent. And secondly, unless, Methodism be false to the traditions of her glorious past and dislolual to the spirit and genius of her great founder, none is more eminently fitted to minister to the claimant needs of these races than she, by reason of her special adaptations and qualifications. "In her incipiency and during the days of her early struggles and triumphs, Methodism causes the viewpoint of the Christian dream of a The New York Age. N. H. HIGGINS, M.D. world conquered for Him. With a splendid faith she transcended the narrow limitations of Calvinism, and in the spirit of the immortal Wesley, who declared that the world was his parish, she went forth proclaiming a gospel of love and hope for the world. Methodism emphasized anew the worth and 'the equal spiritual value of the individual.' One authority, quoted by Dr. John S. Simon, in his able and valuable Fernley Lecture, testifies that, largely as a result of Methodist preaching in the eighteenth century, 'all ranks of society recognized, or had a passionate desire to recognize, the equality of every living being before Almighty God' "Methodism, moreover, believed in and proclaimed the power of the grace of God, manifested in Jesus Christ, and made operant through the Holy Ghost, to save, uplift and ennoble the lowest and the worst who might respond to it." If she still hold to these great principles, which were fundamental in the beginnings of her history, then she is eminently qualified to fulfil a splendid mission to the backward races. Patient, Loving and Christianlike Leadership Needed. "What this mission is may be expressed in one brief but pregnant sentence: Patient, loving, Christ-like leadership towards all that makes for the salvation and uplifting to complete manhood of the backward peoples. God's ideal is the same for all mankind. He aims at perfect manhood in Jesus Christ for every member of the race. "It will demand of us a new appraisement of our potentialities and capacities, and a correct interpretation of their significance, both in relation to ourselves and to the backward races. Methodism has been wonderfully blessed by God; she has been the recipient of a marvelous endowment of diversified gifts, talents, powers. What is God's purpose in designing them? What can we have designed to serve? If we have never grasped the profound significance of life, or are content to pass a mere aimless existence, we shall not concern ourselves with these questions, and whatever blessings we possessed will be confiscated because of abuse or neglect. "Before closing let me suggest that apart from the high reasons growing out of our sense of Christian responsibility, there is another, and, perhaps, a utilitarian reason why we should fulfil this mission to these races. It is that the perfection of the race at large, of humanity, if you please, is delayed by these backward peoples. Of the heroes and worthies celebrated in the eleventh chapter of the Epistle to the Hebrews, it is said that 'they without us should not be made perfect.' So the perfection of humanity shall be delayed until these races are brought to Christ. Shall we give ourselves to the task? We shall lose nothing, by it. Our own heavenward progress will not, be retarded by our efforts to minister to the necessities of the fortunate." THE AGE FINDS HEIR Benjamin H. Mills, a member of the Twenty-fifth Infantry, Reads of Small Fortune Awaiting Him Way Out in State of Washington.

THE FIGHT OVER AFRICA Collector Charles W. Anderson in an Address Shows Nice the Foreign Powers Are Seeking to Get Control While the Negro Is Scattered Over the World and Owes but Little of the Country. In an interesting address in which he deeply deplored the failure of the Negro to stand together, Collector Charles W. Anderson spoke to a large audience Sunday evening at the Church of the Seven Day Adventist, No. 184 West 135th street, using for his subject "The Conflict Between the Forces of the Cross and the Forces of the Crescent in Tripoli, and its Liaison to Us." Counsellor Wilford H. Smith presided. Collector Charles W. Anderson has asserts that at this time the different foreign nations are very much worried about the various strips of land in Africa, and that the only territory not in dispute is Liberia, and that even Germany and France are unable to agree on the Liberian boundary question. "With Germany and France ready to war over Morocco, England doing all she can to retain her footshoe in Egypt, France resorting to every subterfuge to remain in control of Algiers, and Italy and Turkey fighting over Tripoli, the Negro of America can readily understand the great concern Europe is taking in Africa. And yet, while the various nations are trying to get every foot in the water, the exception of Liberia, the descendants of Africa are scattered here and there without owning a foot of the land in a country, which is causing the countries of the old world to quarrel and fight," declared 'Collector Anderson. The Negro was urged to get closer together in order to accomplish much good. MAKING APPOINTMENTS Negroes at Washington Profiting By Appointments and Promotions—Race Pleased With Nomination of William J. Browning to Succeed Louden-slager. Special to THE NEW YORK ACM Washington, D. C., Oct. 11. — It has been noted during the past week among all branches of the national government at Washington that colored employees have either been newly appointed to positions never before held by persons of their race or have received promotions at the hands of their respective officials in charge. It is considered significant by some that the changes which are being made for the best interest of the Negro are being brought about before the opening of Congress this winter, as the anticipation of a well-organized Democratic House of Representatives is not generally considered a pleasant prospect for a considerable number of office holders in this city. The colored men in office here look with considerable pleasure upon the nomination of William J. Browning of New Jersey, to succeed the late Hon J. C. Loudenshaker as Congressman from the First New Jersey District. Mr. Browning was for many years chief clerk of the House of Representatives at Washington, upon the election of a Democratic Hon. During his incumbency he was not noted for taking care of the colored men who desired office and employed many in connection with the various Republican committees with which he was closely connected. COUNTY COMMITTEE MEMBERS Following are the colored members of the Republican County Committee who were elected at the recent regular Republican primaries held in New York City, of which the Hon. Samuel Koenig is chairman; Charles W. Anderson, William P. Anderson, William G. Gee, W. Baptiste, Henry J. Nippe, Gikristin, Stewart A. Harrison, Edward Montgomery, J. W. Watson and Charles R. Johnson. BOOKER T. WASHINGTON ENDS TOUR OF TEXAS Large Crowds of Whites and Blacks Welcome Educator in Every Town WHITES HELP TO HIRE HALL Make Up 85 per cent. of Expenses at El Pino—Emmett J. Scott Also Given Ovation in His Home State. Special to THE NEW YORK AGE: Texarkana, Tex., Oct. 9. — Dr. Booker T. Washington's tour of Texas, in which he also visited towns in Arizona, ended here last Thursday. The educator was accompanied by a party of prominent and well-known colored men from various portions of the country. Everywhere the distinguished educator received overwhelming demonstrations of regard and affection, mingled with exultant pride on the part of the Negro people. Equally cordial was the reception given him by representative white men in various places, notably, the conference with Mayor Callaghan in San Antonio, the presentation free of cost of the City Auditorium, a building seating more than 7,000 people, by the Mayor of Houston, the more than cordial address by Mayor T. P. Woodridge of the address of welcome by City Superintendent C. Waco; the more at Waco and the perfectly frank yet friendly address of introduction by Hon. Chesley Adams, former County Superintendent of Public Schools, at Marshall. As on former occasions, Dr. Washington was accompanied by a party of distinguished Negroes, among them being Emmett J. Scott, his secretary; Booker T. Washington, Jr, Dr. J. A Kenney, resident physician; A. R. Amons of the Institute Battalion, Tuskegee Institute, Alabama; W. T. B. Williams, Agent John F. Slater and Jeans Funds Boards, Hampton, Va.; Bishop L. B. Scott, Bishop of Africa; Dr. H. T. Keskin, resident Western University, Quindor, Kan.; Dr. E. C. Morris, President National Baptist Convention, Helena, Ark; Charles S. Tador, representing the New York Evening Post, New York City; Dr. R. E. Park, magazine writer, Boston, Mass.; Horace D. Slatter, general newspaper correspondent, Hopkinsville, Ky.; A. P. Bedou, official photographer, New Orleans, La.; Walter L. Cohen, former Register U. S. Land Office, New Orleans, La.; J. B. Bell, capitalist, Houston, Texas; R. L. Smith, President Texas Negro Business League, Waco; R. C. Houston, Jr, President Provident Savings Bank, Fort Worth; Dr. E. M. Griggs, President Farmers' Bank and Trust Co., Palestine, Texas; the Rev. L. Camp, President General Baptist Convention, Austin, Texas; Dr. M. W. Dogan, President Wiley University, Marshall, Texas; Dr. E. L. Blackshear, principal Prairie View State Normal School; Prof. W. C. Rollins, treasurer Prairie View State Normal School, and others. Coming into the state from Arizona points, the first address on Texas soil was made in El Paso, where Dr. Washington had an immense audience, two-thirds of which were white. On account of the comparatively small number of colored people in El Paso, the white people of the city made up 85 per cent of the expenses necessary to hire the theatre in which Dr. Washington spoke. The welcome and reception given the distinguished educator in San Antonio, where the party mobilized, in a very commendable way set the pace for all other cities, in its cordiality. Fully three thousand people, about one thousand of whom were white, filled every available seat in the Beethoven Hall, crowded in the windows and stood around the walls and aisles to hear the famous Tuskegee Negro educator speak. The big audience cheered the speaker at almost every utterance, and stood around the walls and aisles to hear the famous Tuskegee Negro educator speak. The big audience cheered the speaker at almost every utterance, and stood around the walls and aisles to hear the famous Tuskegee Negro educator speak. "Lord, I'm Climbing Up Jacob's Ladder" and "The Old-Time Religion." In the afternoon Dr. Washington spoke to the Negro school children at the Second Baptist Church, counseling them to make their education worth while in their everyday lives and to take their mothers and fathers in their training with them. Finds Races Get Along Well Together at San Antonio. Dr. Washington was met by a reception committee and taken immediately to the residence of Dr. J. T. Walton, where he was entertained during the day. At 11:35 o'clock he and his party went to the City Hall, where he paid his respects to Mayor Callaghan. "I am pleased to meet you," said the Mayor. "You name is known throughout the world, and I have great respect for your great work at Tuskegee." He was greeted in a manner equally cordial by Aldermen Mauermann and Wickeland. He expressed great satisfaction over the friendly relations existing in San Antonio, between the races, adding that when away from here San Antonio were born in singing the praises of the city. "We will celebrate the praises of the citizens" declared the Mayor who was invited by Dr. Walton to attend the OPPOSE FILLMORE AS COLONEL Ohioans, Upon, Learning That Fillmore Has Been Made Head of the Department and Regiment of New York, Tell of His Connections With Miltia in Ohio. Special to THE NEW YORK AQB: Springfield, O., Oct. 10.—Colored members of the Ohio National Guard in this city were surprised on reading THE ACE that Maj. Charles W. Fillmore of this city had been made colonel of the provisional colored regiment of New York. It is the consensus of opinion here that Gov. Dix will never commission Maj. Fillmore colonel, if the Legislature should provide for a colored regiment, in view of his record in Ohio as major of the Ninth Battalion, the colored military organization connected with the Ohio National Guard. The late Gen. Asa S. Bushnell was the greatest friend the Negro of this state ever had to sit in the Ohio gubernatorial chair. Under him the colored voters received more representation than under any governor before or since, and no white man in Ohio ever contributed as much to Negro charity and educational work as Gov. Bushnell. Odd that of his as a commissioner, W. Fillmore as a commissioner, Ninth (colored) Battalion, and in many ways he assisted Fillmore, they both being residents of this city. Gen. Bushnell was re-elected governor for a second term in 1897, and in January, 1898, he was inaugurated. Although he had commissioned Fillmore as major, and although he was the greatest friend the race had in Ohio, Fillmore refused to turn out at his inauguration for a second term, and did all in his power to induce the battalion not to enter the inaugural parade, having been ordered by the Adjutant-Governor along with the rest of the state troops. Gen. Axline, who was then Adjutant-General of the state, immediately communicated with Capt. Rudd of this city, who was a staff officer in the Ninth Battalion, and the result was that the Ninth Battalion, under Capt. Rudd, turned out its full quota of men in the inaugural procession. Fillmore, at the suggestion of a faction opposed to Gov. Bushnell, had refused to turn out with his battalion. National Guard men, white and colored condemnment Fillmore's attitude, even knowing that a soldier's first duty is to obey orders of his superiors, and the orders wrote that the entire Ohio National Guard should turn out in the inaugural parade in Columbus. Soon after Gen. Bushnell took his seat for the second term the Spanish-American war broke out, and the Governor refused to commission Maj. Fillmore as major of the Ninth Ohio for service in the war, but instead had the War Department of the United States detail Capt. Charles Young, of the regular army, and he commissioned Capt. Young as major of the Ninth Ohio, instead of Fillmore, and at the head of the hattailion the present Maj. Young went into the Spanish-American war. FUNERAL OF BISHOP HANDY Noted Prelate Buried in Family Lot in Laurel Hill Cemetery, Baltimore —Bishop Handy Expires After a Five Years' Illness. Baltimore, Md., October 11.—The funeral of the late Bishop James Anderson Haudy, who died last Thursday night after a five years' illness from progressive paralysis, was held Tuesday afternoon from Bethel A. M. E. Church. The remains lay in state all of the morning, hundreds of persons availing themselves of the opportunity to take a last look at the venerable prelate. The funeral services were in charge of Bishop Levi J. Coppin, of Philadelphia. The opening hymn was lined by the Rev. Dr. D. P. Seaton, of Washington, after which prayer by the Rev. Charles E. Herbert followed. Bishop W. J. Gaines read the 90th Psalm. The Rev.

A number of resolutions and telegrams were read, after which Rev John W. Norris, of this city, delivered the benediction. Interment was in the family lot in Laurel Cemetery. The deceased was born in Baltimore December 22, 1826. He was reared by an uncle, having been left an orphan at an early age. The only child ULRICH MUST STAND TRIAL Assistant District Attorney James E. Smith announces that Harry A. Ulrich of 11½ West 63d street, who is charged with assaulting Dr. Booker T. Washington last spring, will be put on trial in Special Sessions Monday. The assault on Dr. Washington was at 11½ West 63d street, the educator being badly beaten and arrested on complaint of Ulrich, who said he took him for a thief. Dr. Washington made a counter charge of assault against Ulrich, who then said the educator had made improper remarks to his wife. Ulrich is out on $300 bail and at one time it was rumored that the case would never come to trial. Dr. Washington said he had no intention of letting the charge against Ulrich drop, and recently wrote that he would be in the city next week to give the charge. PRICE, 5 CENTS KELLY MILLER IN CONTROVERSY Defends the Actions of Dr. Wm. V. Tunnel in the Bruce Case Prof. Miller Says That While He and Colleague Differ He Has a High Regard for His Integrity Stand Taken by Dr. Tomell Does Not Nurture the University—incident Referred To As "Parental Confession." Washington, D. C., Oct. 11.—Prof. Kelly Miller, Dean of the College of Arts and Sciences at Howard University, has entered into the Bruce controversy, which is the principal topic of interest among the colored residents of Washington at this time, by defending the actions of his colleague and friend, Dr. William V. Tunnell of Howard University, who, as a member of the Board of Education, is advocating the removal of Roscoe C. Bruce as Assistant Superintendent of Schools. The Bruce aafir is referred to by Prof. Miller as "the perennial confusion in our local public schools," and while Prof. Miller asserts that he is in favor of the retention of Assistant Superintendent Bruce, yet he views with disfavor those who see fit to attack the integrity of Dr. Tunnell because he is strongly opposed to Bruce remaining Assistant Superintendent. Prof. Miller explains his position so Tobias: "I have noticed with interest the contribution of one of your Washington correspondents in the current issue of THE AGE, touching the perennial confusion in our local public schools. The AGE has great carrying power and conveys, not only the news, but also the invidious and insidious impressions which hide themselves between the walls of a wide audience. It is therefore all the more important that your news items should be accurate and the implications just. Touching the issues involved in this discussion, I wish to state at the outset, that I am in full favor of the retention of Roscoe C. Bruce as Assistant Superintendent of Schools, and am willing and ready to do all that I can in reason and honesty to accomplish this result. I find that my judgment in this matter is at variance with that of my almost lifelong friend and colleague, Dr. William V. Tunnell. As a member of the Board of Education, Dr. Tunnell is charged with deinite duty and responsibility; I am not. He has opportunity for intimate inside knowledge; I have not. He must act according to the light of his conscience and judgment according to mine. My intelligence is highly mindedness is of a high-mindedness in this difference of judgment. I have been associated with Prof. Tunnell for nearly a third of a century as boys and men, as pupils and fellow teachers, as friends and associates. This long acquaintance and association fully justify me in resenting with indignation my imputation or insinuation of dishonesty of motive or purpose, on his part, by whomever made, or however deviously implied. Thinks Overzealous Friends of Bruce Do Him an Injustice. "The overzealous friends of Mr. Bruce are doing him a positive injustice and disservice by imputing improptive motives to a member of the Board of Education who may feel forced, from what he considers a sense of duty, to request his removal. Dr. Tunnell has the same right to reach an unfavorable decision, as I have to reach a favorable one. There is no more reason why Mr. Bruce's opponents should be accused of sinister motives than that his friends should be so accused. The strength of Mr. Bruce's position does not rest upon the unworthiness of his opponents, but upon his own positive powers and achievements. In the lower order of politics, the opposing powers may prove effective. But God forbid that such low methods should ever inside the sacred precincts of education. To put one man up by pulling another down is far beneath the level of high-minded contention among homosexual men. I am sure that Mr. Bruce, chivalrous son of Harvard, would not care to have his personal fortunes advanced by ways so devious and dirty. "So far as respects the intimation of one of your correspondents that Dr. Tunnell is embarrassing Howard University by his attitude, he is speaking without knowledge and without authority. His gracious service to this institution is based upon a total apprehension of its policy and spirit. I have been connected with this institution for thirty years as pumil and teacher. I have always understood that my number of the faculty has this A great number of the members and friends attended the church services Sunday. The Rev. Simprea reached a very interesting sermon.

Last Thursday evening the funeral of Mrs. Warfield was held. Dr. Ransom left New York Monday evening for Baltimore in order to be present at the funeral of Bishop Handy, who died recently. Mother ZioR. Pastor Bolden spoke Sunday morning from the text, "But none of these things move me, neither count I my life dear unto myself, so that I might finish my course with joy, and my ministry, which I have received of the Lord Jesus, to testify the gospel of the grace of God." Acts, 20:24. Pastor Bolden commented upon the difference of this text as it reads in the revised version. He said, though, the text means the same, with the first phrase left out, yet there is strength and force in the phrase, "But none of these things move me," which suggest a larger field for encouragement, so with that view we shall speak from the verse as it reads in the King James version. "Paul was beaten and imprisoned, but he did not move from his high position. He was maligned and threatened with great affection, but he shrank not from duty. Like his son and Master, he healed him and heard, counted not his life dear unto himself. He delighted in doing the will of God, so that he might finish his course with joy." At the conclusion of the sermon two people joined with the church. The Rev. C. C. Ringgold, of the New Jersey Conference, was present. At the afternoon service, the Rev Sayles preached an eloquent sermon, after which the Holy Communion was served to a large number. The Rev. Bolden occupied the pulpit at the evening service. The Sunday School, Lyceum and C.E. Society held interesting sessions. The Stewardess Board, with Mrs. Ella Rochelle in charge, served an excellent dinner. Don't forget the annual Leaders' entertainment, October 24 to 27. Dr. J. S. Cooper, ex-pastor, will preach Sunday morning, October 15. Pastor Bolden will preach to the Grand Lodge of St. Lukes at night. Mt. Olivet Baptist Church. The feature of the services held at the church last Sunday was the high spirit of enthusiasm which was manifested throughout the day. At the morning service the pastor preached a most acceptable sermon, subject—"Preparation and Watchfulness for the Second Coming of Christ." In the course of his remarks the Rev. Hayes said: "When Halley's comet was passing the earth there were those who could discern the day of judgment in the erratic movements of this strange visitor; but Halley's comet has long since vanished and the world still moves on. Prophets whose specialty seems to be the interpretation of judgment-day signs are constantly unsettling the foundations of religion by their unwarranted liberties with sacred things. One of the latest excursions undertaken by this brood of fanatics is the attempt to discover some immediate connection between the final judgment and the war between Italy and Turkey. We should not be alarmed by the wild prophesies of such fanatics, but should remember the words of our Lord when he said: "But of our Lord and hour knoote no man not even the angels behone, but my father only." After the sermon several persons spoke in commendation of the discourse as being the most intelligent and inspiring sermon they had ever heard. Seated on the rostrum at this service were the Rev. J. H. Adams, Rev. J. B. Bell of Ariona and Rev. Jeremiah Gregory of Atlantic City. At half-past three o'clock last Sunday afternoon the Rev. William Preston as the second of the five messengers to appear before the St. Mark's Lyeum spoke on the subject "The Pursuit of Our Ideals." The choir of the Mt. Olivet Baptist Church rendered very excellent selections at this session of the Lyeum. At the evening service the pastor delivered a short and interesting sermon from the text "Create Within Me a Clean Heart, Oh, God, and Renew a Right Spirit Within Me." After the sermon the communion was administered to the thousand persons and the band of fellowship extended to the new members. This service was one of the most deeply spiritual feasts ever held in Mt. Olivet. After the service a young man of his own accord came forward and professed his faith in the Lord Jesus Christ. During the week the pastor has been the recipient of many substantial tokens of affection from the members and friends of the church. Friday evening of last week the boards of deacons and trustees presented the pastor with a handsome five-piece parlor suit of solid mahogany, also a number of ladies presented a very handsome mission wood china closet. Beside these two presentations Rev. and Mrs. Hayes have been the recipients of a large number of smaller tokens from the members and friends of Mt. Olivet Baptist Church. An increase in the attendance at the Sunday school sessions have been noted for each Sunday since the new hour of session has been in effect. The session is now held each Sunday afternoon from half-past one to half-past three o'clock Owing to unforeseen circumstances which caused the installation of the officers-elect of the B. Y. P. U. to be postponed from October 4 to sometime in November, it was necessary to render an impromptu program. The personal training period was introduced by President Allison, after which addresses were made by the Rev. Hayes, Messas, J. E. Robinson and Geo. W. Allen. The session was well attended and all present seemed to have participated in a most enthusiastic manner. The Musical Programme will be under the direction of Mrs. DeLyon Leonard. Menelik Literary Society, presented a very interesting program at the B. Y. P. U. session which convened last Sunday afternoon at half-past five o'clock.

Miss Edith Bagley is the president of "The Juniors." The installation services of the Rev. William Preston Hayes as the pastor of the M. Olivet Baptist Church commenced Monday evening, October 9. The following arrangement of the programs as will be rendered is announced: The services will begin each evening this week at half-past seven o'clock. Monday, October 9, sermon by Rev. W. M. Moss, D.

Notes The fall work has opened up well at the Manhattan Branch of the Young Men's Christian Association, and the management is hopeful for a good season. The basketball team is getting things in shape for a vigorous season, and other features are being planned. The Committee of Management has just voted to install a combination pool and ballard table for the use of the members, and also a small bowling alley. In addition to these features, the physical work director of the West Side Branch Y. M. C. A. has consented to come over once or twice a week and lead and assist the young men in any physical work that our limited quarters will permit. It is believed that these new features will add much to the interest and enjoyment of the members during the fall and winter seasons. The checker club has already organized under the management of J. A. Robinson and is practicing twice each week in preparation for the inter-branch tournament which will open in November. The Literary Society has again resumed work for the fall, and is now rendering some interesting programs. The Bible class is enrolling new members each week for the work now being laid out.

When it is remembered of the many colleges represented from all parts of the North, East, West and South—three of them were institutions for Negro education it speaks well for the race.

The principal thoroughfares of Raleigh were crowded with colored people from different parts of the state the past week with the many delegates and visitors attending the Woman's Baptist Missionary Convention. Quite interesting sessions were held by the encouraging Baptist Church and it was quite encouraging to see the interest manifested on the part of the delegates and people for the redemption of Africa. One of the greatest speeches delivered on the subject of missions and Africa was by M. M. B. Delamey, a lady who has been laboring in the interior of Africa several years among the heathen tribes. Part of her talk caused many to shed tears as she described the condition of the people in that dark continent and great was the enthusiasm of all, as she related the progress that the missionaries had made. The convention raised $2,500 for home and domestic missions. The convention was also delighted with a fine address by Miss Julia A. Army of the subject of Christian Education". Miss Julia thought that there was a great work to be done for Christ by the young women of her race. The citizens of Raleigh were proud to have this convention and it is hoped that they can find it convenient to meet again in the capital city. Miss Johanna Moore, a white lady of Nashville, Tennessee, eighty-two years old, who has been working among the colored people of the South for more than forty years, attended the missionary convention. She spoke hopefully of the mission work among the colored people of the South and thought much had been done and wonderful progress on people of Negro origin in every avenue of life. Still much remained to be accomplished. The convention received great inspiration from the address of Miss Moore. Mrs. Pattie G. Shepard of Durham, N. C., president of the Woman's Missionary Convention, and Mrs. Thomas S. Eaton, of Henderson, S. C., made capable officers. Prof. and Mrs. Lee Fuller, of Oxford, N. C., attended the convention and were the guests of the City and Mrs. Jawal while the city, Mrs. Marinie Ricks Powell, of Stanton, Va, was in the city last week, visiting relatives and friends. Mrs. Charlotte Garner, of Columbia, S. C., arrived in the city Saturday and returned several days visiting her aunt, Mrs. Charles Caldwell, on South Blooms street. FUNERAL OF BISHOP HANDY actual schooling he got was during the winter of 1833, when he attended a private school for three months. He had been a member of the Sunday School of Bethel Church continuously since he was five years of age, and it was said that Bishop Richard Allen placed his hands on his head in 1829 and predicted that he would be a prelate some day. When the late Bishop Daniel A. Payne, of the best educated men of his day, was pastor of Bethel JOSEPH LEVY & SON, 389 Eighth Avenue. MME.

INQUIRE ON PREMISES oct 12-2t Church he took an interest in young Handy and prepared him for the ministry. He was ordained in 1860 by the late Bishop John M. Brown. Bishop Handy enjoyed distinction of having served Bethel Church as sexton, steward, trustee, class leader, pastor, presiding elder and bishop. He was elected missionary secretary of his denomination in 1868, serving until 1872. He later filled pastorates for Orlando, Orlando, Winston, and Washington. He was elected financial secretary of the A. M. E. Church in 1892, and four years later was elevated to the bishopric. He was regarded as a strict disciplinarian, though a man of kindly heart, giving away half of his salary each year to poor ministers and others. His home was a storehouse of data concerning the history of the Negro. The bishop was married three times. His last wife, Mrs. Mary F. Handy, survives. He was married to his brother, a year later in sickness and health, who had his constant companion. Four grandchildren, a niece and a nephew also survive. With the death of Bishop Handy only a few of those rugged characters who forged ahead as leaders just before or after the Civil War remain.

Ameeting of the alumni association of Howard University will be called at an early date, the secretary at present endeavoring to get in close touch with out-of-town members who are deeply interested in the welfare of the association so that a time of meeting may be arranged to best suit the convenience of the majority of non-resident members. The meeting is of especial importance, since it involves the adoption of a constitution which has been prepared by a committee chosen at the last session in May. This new constitution, it is said: contains many features which are likely to call for further serious discussion, but which are considered by the makers of the instrument so sane that they anticipate its adoption without a serious hitch. The new fraternity which was expected to develop at Howard University this fall, it is said, will put in its appearance within a few weeks. By this time the matter will have been thoroughly gone over with President Thirkield and Prof. Kelly Miller, officers directly in charge of the College of Arts and Sciences, and it is expected that it will be received by them with much favor. It has become known that a number of graduates of the university have already organized the fraternity and have begun to take in members now in college to swell their numbers to an appraisal.

In another column of THE AGE today we print an article on social equality, by Dr. Thonpkins, of Kansas City, in reply to criticisms of The Crisis, to which we invite the careful consideration of the readers of THE AGE. It deals with a question about which there is more unnecessary ignorance and confusion than any of the many others related to the race problem—the race problem which is fundamentally the same in all lands, in America, Europe, Africa and Asia; made so by differences of ethnic types of the citizenship, or caste proscription by prescription of ages, or official standing, or scholarship, or social standing, and the like. You cannot have a condition of equality in any association of people whatsoever without destroying individual and individual initiative, without which political, civic and social stagnation and death have always resulted. The communistic efforts to reduce individualism and individual initiative to a common level, common standard, by community association, have always failed, because people are not beasts or swine; all of which latter grunt alike, quael alike, root alike, and act alike at a swill feast of slops; people are people, and naturally differentiate into ethnic, social and propagandist groups by mutuality of interests and sympathies, and even in such groupings the stronger will have precedence of the weaker, by mutual consent and election, or by force. The effort to equalize the collective wealth of the nation among the individual units that produce it by their labor, each in his place and way, is as hopeless a task as to equalize socially and politically, in one group, those individual units. In the building of a sky-scraper, or subway tunnel, or railway, or steamship, they are all brought together in one place, but they are directed by one master mind, the work of each is different in character, and they do not receive the same wages. When they cease from work they cease to be a working unit, subject to one master mind, and become individuals, such going to the social grouping which pleases him best. They do not meet in the home, the club, the cafe, and do not expect to, because the relative social standing of the financier of the building and the contractor and the workmen under him is as scrupulously defined by the unwritten laws of conassociation as the caste laws of India, or of Europe. Of course we have greater freedom from such social restrictions in this country, but the principle is here, and will remain here. There is no such thing as social equality, even in the groups where the like sort, relatively, associate together; and this is as true among Negroes as among other hyphenated types of the citizenship. There should be more general and rigid segregation into social groupings of their own among Negroes where there is; that there is not is scandalous, and is the provoking cause of social discrimination against them by white social groups. To tag all as socially alike, when nothing could be faker, is fatal to the social standing and rating of the Negro people. It would be difficult to come upon a more hopelessly confused statement of the relation of social equality and civil rights than is to be found in the article In The Crisis to which Dr. Thompkins takes exception. Clark Howell, of the Atlanta Constitution, with Machiavellian malice, could not have made a worse confusion of it. Dr. DuBois says, In The Crisis: A colored physician of Kansas City has made a speech at a large meeting in Denver in which he protests that he does not want "social equality." It happens, however, that social equality is precisely what this gentleman does want and we can prove it: If our readers will turn to the March number of the Crises they will learn that this same physician got on a Pullman car to ride into Texas and was ejected. He protracted vigorously, as he ought to have done, and brought out. Now, riding on a Pullman car is social equality, and there is no use pretending that it is not. Equal political rights are impossible without social equality. When American Negroes recently sent a protest to England complaining of civil and political degradation what did the South retreat? Practically all the southern white papers said this is "decriminal social equality"; and it was. Social equality is simply the right to be treated as a gentleman when one is among gentlemen and acts like a gentleman. No person who does not demand such treatment is fit for the custody of gentlemen. Of course, what the speaker meant to say was that he had no desire to force his company on people unnecessarily if they objected to him, but such a right does not imply "equality," but "superiority," and this speaker knows or ought to know that every time a black man says publicly that he is willing to be treated as a social pariah, he is forging the chains of his social slavery. Let intelligent black men stop this sort of talk. If they are afraid to demand their rights as men, they can, at least, preserve digested silence. Political Right, Civil Rights and Social Equality Rights are not one and the same. The Federal Constitution defines citizenship to be "all persons born or naturalized in the United States" (14th Amendment). But Pomeroy (in "Municipal Law") holds that "the right of citizenship must not be confounded with the right of suffrage and of taking part in the administration of the Government," while the Federal Supreme Court has ruled that the States have a right to say who shall vote and who shall not, when there is no "discrimination on account of race, color or previous condition of servitude." Citizenship does not carry with it the right to vote. The election laws of the States must be complied with. The Federal Constitution takes no cognizance of Civil Rights, but the Supreme Court held, Chief Justice Waite delivering the opinion, in declaring the Summer Civil Rights Bill unconstitutional, that the subject was within the scope of State powers. But the Interstate Commerce Commission has held that the Pullman Palace Car Company is an interstate corporation and cannot discriminate against an interstate Negro passenger, although a State law would apply in an ordinary coach of the same train. The right to ride in a Pullman car, then, by an interstate passenger is a civil one, and not a social one, actionable in a Federal Court. Dr. DuBois is, therefore, in error in confusing a social privilege with a civil right. What are civil rights? They are all that body of laws, common and statute, denominated public rights, in which one citizen has the same standing, all things considered, as another, in places chartered, licensed, taxed, for the accommodation, amusement or convenience of the public. What is to be gained by agitating the question of social equality, which means simply, reduced to an absurdity, that if one man, or group of men, do not desire and will not associate on social terms with another man or group of men they should be compelled to do it. How? There is no law whatsoever to compel them to do it, and there should not be. Such a rule would work both ways. Sir Walter Scott expressed the whole matter in a nutshell when he wrote: My castles are my klings alone, from turret to foundation stone: The hand of Douglas is his own, and never shall in friendly grasp. The hand of such a Marmion clasp. "Social equality" is not a civil right. It is an individual prerogative, inalien- able, with which the law has nothing whatsoever to do. BRUTAL LAW AND PUBLIC OPINION Law may be defined as public opinion, when it is enacted in the legal manner prescribed, to be enforced by the police power of the state; but by no stretch of the imagination can public opinion be defined as law when it has not been enacted in the legal manner prescribed, or when it violates in such enactment a constitutional principle. In his recent tour of Texas, in the interest of the Business League, the railroads were thoughtful and considerate enough to notify Dr. Booker T. Washington that he would have to accept separate car accommodations unless he secured special train service. He, very properly, secured special train service, and in that way evaded the separate car laws of Texas and the inconvenience and annoyance they entail upon all who have to submit to them. The separate car laws of Texas, and of all of the Southern states, are clearly unconstitutional, brutal, and were enacted and are sustained by a brutal public opinion. It is not possible to characterize them in milder terms without insulting the truth. The "equal but separate accommodation" clause, even, is not jintified by the Constitution, nor ever lived up to by railroads and steamboats. It was not expected by the brutal public opinion responsible for the enactment that it should be. What is the fundamental law? Article Ten of the Federal Constitution reads as follows: "The powers not delegated to the States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the states, are reserved to the states respectively, or to the people." The second sentence of Section 1 of Article Fourteen reads as follows: "No state shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; * * * nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws." The constitutional guarantee of equality of privileges and immunities is in no wise affected because the Federal Supreme Court has declared separate car laws within the scope of powers reserved to the states, simply because the Supreme Court neither makes constitutions nor laws; its defined functions being to interpret constitutions and laws. The hold fact remains that separate car laws, even in the segregation of colors of passengers, are an abridgement of the privileges and immunities of the citizens discriminated against, and that they are brutal in the hardships, indignities and extra expenses entailed upon the victims. PRESIDENT TAFT IN THE WEST. President Taft has not set the West country on fire with his calmly judicial exposition of the Administration's attitude towards the business interests of the country, but there are indications that he is convincing the people that he is honest, that he is capable, and that he will not allow himself to be run off his stride by hasty action in any matter where the vital interests of the whole people are concerned. He will not be moved by the new-fangled isms which the alleged "progressives" clamor for, to keep the country from going to the bow-wows, as they think, because they hope to catch the popular ear by so thinking, but he will stick to the old system of government and administration and rely upon "the sober second thought of the people." The country should pat itself on the back for having a level-headed President in the White House. Commencing on the Western situation, as summarized by the Topeka Capital, the New York Tribune, which remains the Republican Administration newspaper in summer's shine and winter's snows, says: The great mass of the Western people are by no means as hostile to the President as the Western Insurgent politicians are. In many of the far Western States there is little organized insurgent sentiment left, and disillusionment in the Mississippi Valley region over the Payne-Aldrich tariff revision has given way to the hope that through the agency of a vigorous and competent tariff board such reductions in rates can be secured as will benefit the consumer and yet do no injury to the great fabric of American industry. Those who have been counting on the disaffection of the West in 1912 will do well to measure the situation there in the light of the Topkapi's candid writings and admissions. The West believes in Mr. Taft and will eagerly respond to any favorable opportunity to align itself in full support of his administration. As we said last week, the Republican party has an unusually difficult task before it to win in the presidential election next year, as all of the solidly Republican states of New England, except Vermont, New Hampshire and Rhode Island, and all of the Middle States, except Pennsylvania, together with West Virginia, Ohio and Indiana, are in control of the Democratic party. These states must be recovered and the Western discontent placated. The Democratic leaders are. cocksure of success, and talk already as if they were aking their slouch hats and brogans on the White House front stoop in advance. They should be disappointed in their cocksureness. THIRSTY SOLDIERS IN AT LANTA Atlanta is a prohibition city. If a stranger there desires a drink he has to take it with him, or sneak it. There was a time, and not so long ago, when Atlanta was ruled by the liquorierians, with a drunken Mayor at the head of them; now, it is said, liquor is as scarce in the Gate City as water in the Desert of Sahara. But liquor can still be had in Atlanta, if the "proper side door" is known or pointed out to the thirsty uneducated to the taste of water. It appears that the military organizations of Baltimore, Philadelphia, Boston and other cities plan to attend soon a peace convention in Atlanta, and the managers have been flooded with telegrams, asking, "Will it be necessary to bring our liquid sustenance with us?" Think of that, ye Christian people! The following answer was sent and restored the hilarious status quo: "Just bring your thirst; we will provide liquid refreshments, despite prohibition." Now, in a case like that, what is prohibition that does not prohibit to do? The Atlanta managers of the celebration solved the problem by the "locker club." It arranged with the leading clubs of the city to furnish 5,000 cards each, which will be distributed to "the soldiers, governors, mayor, and other distinguished citizens who will be the guests of the city." But what an object lesson in evading law! What an advertisement to the youth of the country that peace conferences must have liquor, and plenty of it, despite the law, in order to discuss, to celebrate the wisdom, the glories of peace, and despite the fact that liquor has been the chief propagandist and inspirationist of laxness, brawls, poverty, domestic inharmony and national downfalls since Noah became an husbandman and got drunk on the wine he raised 4258 years ago. Mr. Noah, drunken, the tatter of the race, was a sign to the nations, but the nations have not so interpreted him. The drink bill of Europe and America is greater than the food bill, when the money cost is estimated in cash, in physical, moral and mental deterioration, and in the maintenance of police protection and jails. The managers of the Atlanta peace celebration could have wisely set a better example for the youth of the nation than to advertise the thirst of their expected guests and their willingness to evade the law by the "locker club" route. JUSTICE-HUGHES' NEIGHBORS. Mr. Justice Charles E. Hughes of the Federal Supreme Court confronts a condition and not a theory, according to a Washington dispatch to the New York World. He is having built a $100,000 home on the corner of Sixteenth and V streets, in Washington. When he began to build there was no other house on V street; now the entire frontage on both sides of the street is occupied by twenty two-story "box" houses, which are occupied by Negro tenants. An enterprising contractor did it. What of it? Will the Justice, who was once a popular Governor of New ork State, run away from his new home because it has been unexpectedly surrounded by Negro neighbors? The World says, with a concealed clarion note, of warning to Justice Hughes: "The colored residents of the national capital are famous for the size of their families. Their children are unusually endowed with healthy lungs and like to play in the middle of the streets." Then, in view of this statement of the case, if Justice Hughes should decide not to occupy his new home, or to abandon it after he has occupied it, it will not be because he has Negro neighbors, against whom he has no prejudice whatsoever, as he frequently declared in his campaign speeches, when standing for election as Governor of New York, but because his Negro neighbors have large families of children, who like to play in the middle of the street, and who have healthy lungs, are noisy; a Justice of the Supreme Court, requires in a home, and the neighborhood of a home, the seclusion and quiet, the repose, which invite to study and the meditation which follows after study. To move from a neighborhood for such cause, or refuse to move into one for such cause, would be a good and sufficient reason and justification of any one or of all of the justices of the Supreme Court. But there is another side to the question. It is true that most Negroes have large families, which knocks interschieens, the contention that they are dying off and will shortly disappear from the big face of Uncle Sam's map, and that they have healthy lungs, which challenges the contention that they are predisposed to tuberculosis and other pulmonary diseases, as strong lungs and such diseases refuse to dwell together harmoniously; it is equally true that all Negro families are not rowdies, vulgarians, boisterous, living more in the middle of the streets than in their homes and the public schools. Some of them, in the National Capitol, are cultured and refined in their homes and in the middle of the streets, and would no more disturb the seclusion and quiet, the repose, of Justice Hughes, than would any other sorts of American colors. It is highly probable that Justice Hughes' neighbors are of this character; we hope so; if they are not they should begin at once to educate themselves to be so. The segregation movements which have agitated the people of New York Baltimore. Newport News and other cities during the past year have been due largely to the reputation Negroes have of being noisy, very noisy neighbors, with large families of children, who have healthy lungs and live much in the middle of the streets. And there is far more truth than poetry in the existence of this reputation. A visit through the streets of the four sections of New York City where Negroes mostly live will bear out this statement. It is, then, of the first and highest moment that Negroes strive everywhere to scotch, as the head of a snake, this reputation which helps to keep them out of good neighborhoods and homes. THE REBELLION OF QUEEN VASHTI. The Persians have opinions of their own about woman, that are held by most Orientalists who believe in the teachings of Mohamet. Not long ago a woman's suffrage bill was introduced in the Persian Parliament and, upon consideration of it, created the wildest excitement and indignation among the members until, finally, it was thrown out, after the president had declared that, according to the Koran, the Mohametan Bible, "women have no souls, and are in any way inferior to man, and that a soulless animal cannot have the vote." Did you ever! It is enough to take the breath clean away from a man-American who remains at home and looks after the house and the children while the woman-American is abroad discussing "the state of the nation" and "the right of woman to vote" and do all things else the man does, wearing the trousers included, as Dr. Mary Walker and others do, and to ride the horse bestraddle, as the fashion is. The Persians should tarry at Teheran and thereaults until their opinions grow beards on them. In London or New York the "soulless woman suffragettes" would mop up the earth with them. This declaration by the Parsian Parliament to-day will be better understood and appreciated by the readers of Turt Azur if they will re-read "The Book of Esther," with particular reference to the rebellion of Queen Vashti and the revolutionary change of the status of woman in Persia which followed upon it. This happened $21 years before the Christian era, and is an inseparable part of Biblical law and commandment. binding upon and scrupulously observed in their laws and practices by all Christian people. It appears that Persian women had been in the habit of galing their husbands; so when King Ahasuerus commanded the queen to attend his feast, and show herself as queen to his guests, the great of his kingdom, she flatly refused to do it; thereupon the king took away her crown and ordered that thereafter "all wives shall give to their husbands honor, both to great and small," and that "every man should bear rule in his own house." Of course, the new order made a great stir, but under the firm rule of Mordecai the Jew the women of the land had to accept it. Women ruled Israel from Sarai to Mary, when Jesus rebelled against and destroyed it. Nearly all of the domestic troubles in Christendom are caused by too much Vashti domination. The courts are overworked by the unfortunate seeking relief from it, while by far the greater part of it never reaches the public but is borne in the silence of seclusion which is slow torture and finally death. It should be borne in mind, however, that the man is often a woman in nature and disposition and the woman often a man in nature and disposition; if a man-woman marries a woman or if a woman-man marries a man, there will be troubles a plenty from start to finish. It is a Biblical theory that the Shemites and Hamites are man-woman and woman-man; that is, they are criss-crossed, for the purpose of provoking the enmity between the man and woman described in Genesis 3. xv. and I will put enmity between the man and the woman, and between the seed and her seed." But among the Gentiles of Europe and the islands of the sea it was not so; originally the man was the female and the female was the man; now they are so badly mixed in the blood and spirit of the African and asiate as to have lost much of their omens, their singularity of individuality. EMMETT SCOTT NO OFFICE- HOLDER. Through a typographical error made in our Washington special last week, giving the news of Secretary MacVeagh's order against the dismissal of colored employees in the Supervising Architect's office, the impression was given that Emmett J. Scott is an officeholder in the Treasury Department. This was occasioned by the omission of the little word "to." In referring to Secretary MacVeagh's statement that while he was Secretary of the Treasury there would be no less colored men in that department, the paragraph should have read: "The fact is there are now more under him than when he made this statement to Emmett J. Scott." Mr. Scott is well content at Tuskegee, where he is an invaluable secretary to Dr. Washington, and has never had any desire to honor any Government position with his splendid ability and character. MR. FORTUNE WITH THE AGE AGAIN. T. Thomas Fortune is again a member of the staff of THE NEW YORK AGE, and will assist us in making it better and stronger, more constructive in its work of race helpfulness and uplift. Mr. Fortune has entirely recovered his health, which became impaired in 1906, and is now better equipped than ever before to deal with the living questions of the day. He always desired to be associated with his first love again, and we are glad to have him. While Mr. Roscoe C. Simmons was never at any time editor of THE AGE, we regard him as an able young man, and wish him well wherever he may locate. According to the latest census tabulation New York State has a total population of 9,113,614. That is much people. It has sixty-one counties, Hamilton being the smallest with 4,373 inhabitants, and New York the most with 2,762,522. Gov. Woodrow Wilson, of New Jersey, was so badly done for-in the Democratic primaries that he 'deemed it impolite to have his State convention endorse him for the Presidency. He was victimized by his own primary law. And that's the way Nemesis works. --- Wolfgang von Goethe says "We can offer much in the large, but to make sacrifices in little things is seldom what we are equal to." More people come to grief by neglecting the small than the large things. Think of the humble pennies, which make the dollars, that are squandered from January to January! The small rent in a garment, unglected, soon becomes a sightless hole, spoiling the garment. A specked apple, if allowed to remain, will infect a whole barrel. Look after the small things; the large things can hook after themselves. The death of Rear-Admiral Winfield Scott Schley, the popular hero of the Santiago sea fight, in which "there was glory enough for all," in the streets of New York, where he was stricken without warning, shows anew that death not only still "loves a shining mark," but that "in the midst of life we are in death." He was a brave and gallant officer, and rendered many of the valuable services which have served to place the American navy in the forefront of the best and strongest of the navies of the world, where John Paul Jones fastened its ensign more than a century ago. The Turks, who are stubborn fighters, threaten to make it more troublesome for the Italians to remain in Tripoli than they had to bombard their way into it. So a rat often finds it easier to sneak into a trap than to brazen his way out. So, also, a contentious, uppish individual often finds it easier to rush into trouble than to rush out again. The New York Giants of the National League have won the penant for 1911, and the smile on the face of the average baseball "rooster" is as dazzing as a sport's diamond out of "hock." It is the Giant's third win of the penant. We are inclined to exclaim, a long way after Sir Walter Scott: "Lives there a man with soul so dead, Who never to himself hath said, This my own my baseball team!" Lots of good advice is to be picked up from time to time in the daily newspapers. Most of it is dropped in dribbles from mouths of men who have succeeded in life, and who want others to do so. Any one, for example, who would keep a scrap-book of the newspaper sayings of Andrew Carnegie, John D. Rockefeller, James J. Hill, Cardinal John Gibbons and Booker T. Washington would soon have as wise a collection as "Four Richard's Sayings." But do people really care for good advice? Do not people really think they are wise enough, without instruction, in their own concept? The other day, when Mr. Rockefeller was leaving his Cleveland home for the winter, he said to a reporter: "I believe in sticking to one thing—don't change. The young man who works to make his fortune must pick out one thing and stick to it." Could any advice be more helpful than that? Young Negroes, especially those just out of the schools, could study this advice to great advantage. Most young people are easily discouraged in any adventure in which they do not succeed specially, and abandon it for some other, in its turn to be abandoned. It is the long, steady grind that wins in the end. Few can stand sudden success; it throws them off their stride. DR: THOMPKINS ANSWERS DUBOIS To the Editor of The Arc: In the response to the Governor of Colorado to the National Negro Educational Congress, held in Denver, August 14, 1911, the writer said in part as follows: "It is not social equality that we ask; we abhor the mere expression of social equality as the average white man sees it. We ask no special favors, but we do ask a square deal to make opportunities to be men." Now, the September "Crids" refers to this as a speech made by a colored physician of Kansas City, in which he protests that he does not want social equality. Then, your excellent journal cites its readers to its comment in the March issue upon this "same colored physician"'s protest against being ejected from a Pullman car, and goes on to prove that his speech in Denver is not consistent with the stand he took in the Pullman case. The suit entered for $100,000 against the Pullman and M. T. and T. Railroad companies for violence to one's person and its consequent humiliation, and against the rights of an American citizen, would be classed by the world at large as a suit for civil rights, not, as the sociologist puts it, in the "social equality" list. Let us for a minute take another statement of the Crisis, as follows: "Now, riding on a Pullman car is social equality, and that is no use pretending that it is unfair. If so, it is not a statement coming from the editorial columns of the Crisic. I could not have believed it; the expression is no absolutely absurd, and shows such utter lack of the editor's ability to discriminate between personal comforts and his phantom—his personal dignity." The expression is petty, and shows no eternal fitness of things. A Pullman car is a luxury, a commodity for which one pays a fee to rest, to sleep, to be comfortable, and the question of social equality is not a consideration. We have not been confused with necessary comfort. Take the own case. I received an urgent call from Southern city last week on professional business. I had been up two consecutive nights. The telegram says, "Come at once." The distance is 300 miles. The next day is to be a strenuous one. The individual is to be under my immediate care. My needs must be steady; my senses clear. The coach is straight back, dingy affair, adjourned in baggage car. The Pullman is one of the above comforts for which I can pay and which is necessary for the preservation of my own body and maybe the life on individual. We have a teacher here in one of our schools who brought his wife who was ill from Georgia, in a Pullman car. Tell me, this your idea of social quality? It has not been so understood by the American people, and never will be. In last week's paper we see where one of the Gould brothers is threatening the interests of another brother because his actress wife is not received on a basis of social equality in the family. There was a multi-millionaire in Colorado Springs who made his money by sudden speculation and bought membership in an aristocratic club in the city of English gentlemen. He was refrained because he was an ex-servant. These two cases I cite as typical examples in the clamor for social equality. Another statement: "Equal civil rights are impossible without social equality, and equal political rights are impossible without social equality." Now, civil and political rights are governed by laws made through acts of the people. lead and, so enjoyed by all alike, Social equality is a mutual agreement between individuals by sign or token of facial expressions, which legislation cannot regulate and which all cannot enjoy alike. The fact that the "Southern white paper" from New York in London of "demanding equality" does not make it so, for they, like others I know, are constantly changing this same phantom, and when they find this nameless something, for peace of mind and a better name, they style it "social equality." It never been a word of human tongue that has been made to be so many things. The Crisis says: "Social equality is simply the right to be treated as a gentleman, when one is among gentlemen." May I ask of those men that come into the office of the Crisis, how many men that are not gentlemen are, how many men that are all men the social equal of each other when they "act like gentlemen?" It has ever been my desire to respect credit, and dignity upon my people, and I am willing for the American Negro to determine the meaning of my statement; when you accuse me of "forging the chains of social slavery." If they agree with you, I will "preserve a dignified silence you." I can only say, as long as there is ignorance and intelligence, as long as there exists millionaires, middle men and paupers, there can never be social equality. I have discussed this matter of social equality as the average man and feels, eliminating the technicalities for the editor of The Crisis bears the distinction of being our greatest sociologist and understands sociology in its greatness. I am not wrong and he right, that the world needs a better definition of social equality. Respectfully, WM. J. THOMPKINS, M. D. Kansas City, Mo. "Midnight" Throws Light on Controversy To the Editor of The Agri- Several weeks ago you published in your paper a communication sized CM. S. Stewart. Recordkeeping Secretary of the Grand Lodge of told Fellows: It was a somethings in Col. J. O. McLissack. Blished in the Afro-American Lodge in which the writer relocated the Rev. E. P. Jones, Prof. E. H. McLissack Mrs. E. H. McLissack and others bledged in Mississippi and lodged of old Fellows in Mississippi. I am not writing this for the purpose of begging a job, which the writer says I have lost, nor am I beginning for bread because I think I have passed that star far as I am concerned the whole thing is manufactured out of old cloth. The article in question was sent written by L. O. Midnight, nor did he cause it to be written nor did he date it, and knows absolutely nothing about it, and no notice while in Pittsburgh, but I not seen The Ace, nor have I been able to get hold of a copy containing the reply or that which Mr. Stewart sent out yet, and as for the article which was supposed to be from the Afro-American Ledger, nor did it such a thing has never been in the Ledger, and I will deposit with the Bank of Mound Bayou $50 for any one who will produce the article from the Afro-American Ledger, referring to any of the parties named as "Theo." I do not think that I commit a crime when I earn a living by writing. I am a newspaper man, and I have tried to get the news to the paper when it was news, and when the writer accuses me of writing a speech and not speak is nothing out of the ordinary in journalism. It often occurs that the publication of the election of an officer is made before the election takes place by the officer reported anticipating it being elected that day, or by delay as was in the case of the election of John W. Harris by the Pyttlans. This is nothing new, to a newspaper. Permit me to correct the statement that information informs my any serious loss were not needed. He will answer and I am of the opinion that he will never so far as I am concerned. I have requested Mr. Stewart to make the correction, and suppose he will do so, for I do not want to be involved of writing a thing I did not write. J. O. MIDNIGHT A: Reliable Florida Agent Norton S.

In working the differential calculus let us not forget that the "rule" and the "line" leads us to that which is ancient and time honored; hence our nearest asset must be the treasures of antiquity, and further, if we are agreed that ours is a progressive science then let us apply this science to the things which obtain to-day. No institution was ever raised on better principles or a more solid foundation than are incubated in the practice of ancient theismony. Therefore, if the principles as practiced by our ancient brethren have withstood the lapse of time, the devastation of war, the change of dynasties, and the invasion of foreign foes, then it is easily reckoned that any departure therefrom is a fragrant violation of an oath and obligation.

This is the man who announced the second coming of Christ, and the coming of the Kingdom of God. He declares that Christ the Lord of God is now come. He also declares his First Decree to all people. He gives a tarting account this week in the columns of his paper. THE TRUE LIGHT," published at 39, 425 and 397 West 41st street, New York. So anxious he is to give the fact to all people that he is giving a copy of his paper free to every person that will ask for one and send for it. He declares that all the world is lost on the manner of Christ's second coming, and the purpose of his second advent among the people. All the Negro school children of the city were all alike by Dr. Washington for about fifteen minutes at Second Baptist Church, many of the parents crowding into the church to hear him. Some 200 people in all were crowded into the building. Emmett I. Scott was none the less welcome. Being formerly a Texas boy, who went to Tuskegee fourteen years ago, he was busy all day receiving the congratulations of his former friends. A large number of white people were in the audience, and to them as well as to the Negroes did Dr. Washington address mine and safe counsel with reference to the color question in the South. His address was filled with sparkling gems of eloquence and many pungent witticisms, and at all times he was able to hold his audience by some remarkable anecdote often told. The meeting was presided over by Dr. J. T. Walton, a local Negro physician, who delivered an address of welcome. Declaring that few living Americans had made such an impression upon public opinion, removed so many prejudices and awakened greater helpfulness in relation to the solution of a problem, Dr. W. M. Drake introduced Dr. Washington to the audience, who rose to speak amongst deafening applause. The Education at Houston. A wreck on the Southern Pacific made the train seven hours late reaching Houston and much of the program mapped out by the local committee had to be curtailed. Here Emmett J. Scott received another ovation, this being his home place, and the point from which He Joined Dr. Washington fourteen years ago to become his secretary. Fully 2,000 white and colored people crowded to the station and lined the sidewalks on the way from the Southern Pacific station to the home of the Orgen company, to which place Dr. Washington immediately repaired and made a short speech to the Negro business men of the city. In an informal way he told the Negro business men to cultivate friendly relations with the white business men, and congratulated them upon the remarkable showing made. From the office of the Orgen company Dr. Washington and his party drove immediately to Trinity Methodist Episcopal Church, where the colored school children had assembled to hear him. City Superintendent P. W. Horn and County Superintendent Pugh had made arrangements whereby the entire force of colored teachers and students could hear the distinguished Negro educator. The automobile ride that had been planned was abandoned owing to the lateness of the hour, and the Washington party was conducted to the home of J. P. Bell, 2121 German street, where dinner was served the party. A feature of the dinner was disclosed in the fact that it had been prepared entirely by the female students of the Langston School in the domestic science department. Besides the men of the immediate party there were present at the reception. N. U. Jones, Thompson, Texas. C. N. Love, editor of the Texas Freeman; Rev. G. A. Des. Landes, Prof David Almer, R. W. Walker, Rev. E. L. Light, Prof F. W. Gross, George W. Jackson, J. Leon Jones and Campbell A. Gilmore. From the residence of J. B. Bell the party was entertained by the trustees of the Carnegie Library at the residence of Dr J. B. Covington. The reception was largely a tribute to Dr Washington and his secretary, Emmett J. Scott, who more than any other individuals, were responsible for securing the donation of a library for the colored people of Houston. The trustees entertaining the party were: E. O. Smith, John Adkins, J. B. Bell, W. E. Willer, L. J. Spivey, W. D. Johnson. Andrew Parr, Richard Lockett, Nat Q. Henderson. When Dr Washington stepped on the platform At the Auditorium he received an invitation. To one side of the platform were a number of Tuskegee alumni, and they greeted their former chief with the college yell. Dr. Washington acknowledged both gracefully and took his place on the platform. With him on the platform were a number of leading Negro professional men and the following white men: L. L. Pugh, County Superintendent of Schools; Adolph Boldt, the Rev. Peter Gray Sears, the Rev. Stephen F. Power, the Rev. G. W. Strong, Prof. J. A. Brown, Judge Lock McDaniel, Judge T. W. Ford, Lewis R. Bryan and G. Van Amemigen. One very interesting and pleasing feature of the Houston engagement was the address of Emmett J. Scott, who was repeatedly called upon by the people for a speech. With evident embarrassment, born of his well known modest and retiring disposition, he in a few short words accepted the greetings from his fellow townsmen, saying in part: "It is the common-place, the trite, the quite bromidic thing to say that I am glad to be here tonight with Dr. Washington in this matchless city, the place of my birth, the queen city of the Lone Star State. The years have not flown too fast to dim my memory of the greatness of Texas, nor have the duties and responsibilities of the advancing years served to make me forget the radiant glory of the golden crown which encircles her imperial brow. No matter where I find myself, I am first of all a Texan!" Singing an original song dedicated to Booker T. Washington, eight hundred Negro students of the Prairie View Normal and Industrial Institute lined up in two rows, gave the famous Negro educator a royal welcome here this morning when he and his party approached the institute grounds. Tribute to Scott. The venerable Bishop I. B. Scott, the only Negro bishop in the Methodist Episcopal Church, received a remarkable tribute, as did also R. L. Smith, the Negro farmer's friend in Texas. Emmett J. Scott, here as at Houston, received a remarkable ovation and was repeatedly called upon for a speech. The entire party, led by Principal Blackshear and Dr. Booker T. Washington, went on a round of inspection of the industrial divisions. Here he spoke to about 5,000 farmers of both races. The address at Temple was made at midday Saturday, when hundreds of country folk, white and black, were in town for their week-end shopping and other business errands. The audience was composed of more white than colored, the speaking taking place in the open air on the public square. That night at Austin, the following night, Dr. Washington spoke in Wooldridge Park in a natural amphitheatre formed by the rise of the hills on each side of the speaker's stand. Fully five thousand people heard his address here. He was welcomed to the city by slayer Wooldridge, in whose honor the park had been named. At Austin the whole party went through a round of festivities, having breakfast at the St. John Orphanage, dinner at Sam Houston College and luncheon at Tillotson College. At all places where there were institutions of learning, Dr. Washington was pressed into service for short address to the students. Waco, the home of R. L. Smith, President of the Texas Negro Business League, gave the party the noisiest welcome and the biggest relative crowd at the station that had been encountered up to this point. Many people surrounded the station when the train arrived several hours late. The students of Central Texas and Paul Quinn College gave him a joyous reception, and at night in the baseball park, while he was being introduced by the City Superintendent of Schools, Prof. J. C.

Prof. Lattimore in his introduction surprised Dr. Washington by giving a detailed account of the sights he witnessed and the impressions made upon him in a recent trim to Tuskegee Institute. Dr. Washington was warmly greeted by Dr. S. P. Brooks, President of Baylor University. Prof. Lattimore, Samuel Sanger, a Texas merchant prince, and other well known white men of Waco. A belated train greatly inconvenienced the waiting throng at Fort Worth, which in many respects is one of the most important towns from a Negro standpoint in the state. While the party was scheduled to reach Fort Worth in the afternoon and Dr. Washington was to have spoken at 3 o'clock, the audience of about 5,000 persons, a large portion of which were white, kept their seats in the theatre until 9 o'clock, when the train finally reached the city. The reception by reason of the tardiness of the party was none the less vigorous, and was in many respects a great tribute to the remarkable esteem in which R. C. Houston, the Fort Worth leader, is held by his fellow townsmen. Despite this handicap and the fact that the Fort Worth engagement was on Sunday night, all the prominent Negro business houses were open for the inspection of the party, the most interesting features in Negro life in Fort Worth being the Masonic Temple, erected at a cost of $50,000, and the Negro High School, which is considered the best in the South, and the large number of business establishments of various kinds conducted by the colored people. A large number of people heard Dr. Washington at the State Fair grounds in Dallas on Monday. In the matter of enthusiasm and spectacular display the small town of Marshall outdid itself in the demonstration given Dr. Washington. The local Negro Business League had charge of the arrangements and with more than ordinary acumen, dispatched Dr. W. M. Dogan to accompany the party, within a few days of Dallas. A parade, more than a mile in length, in which the various industrial divisions from Wiley University and Bishop College and the Central High School were represented on tastily decorated floats. Girls from sewing classes were at work on the floats, from the printing divisions, the domestic science departments, and so in all departments. Small boys from the wood working departments, dressed in overalls, carrying their tools, mule driven teams drawing street cleaning and street building apparatus, followed, while the parade was headed by the Wiley University brass band and the local Business League. As at other points visited, the people who attended the meeting seemed to be of the very best element, well dressed, well behaved. The singing by the Wiley University Glee Club here was a feature of the occasion. Dr. Washington was introduced by Hon. Chesley Adams, former County Superintendent of Public Schools, who paid a high tribute to Dr. Washington and the Negroes of Harrison County. KELLY MILLER IN CONTROVERSY (Continued on next page) same right to form and express his opinion on any public question as the president of the University or the president of the United States. The University is glad to have members of its staff related to the various community and general activities. This broadens the area of its influence in the line of university extension. If Dr. Tunnell or any other member of our staff should, out of craven considerations of prudence, fail to perform a conscientious duty, he would prove himself recruit to the Howard University spirit. Those who stand in the high places of intellectual and moral guidance of the youth of the Negro race must hold up the ideals of frankness, courage, freedom both of conscience and utterance, and high-minded manliness. Although these qualities may at times be misdirected, nevertheless, their assertion is necessary if this race is ever to be guided aright.

They segued that Washington for years bad been without an up-to-date theatre cater- dmg to colored patronage; that in all Ge large playhouses, despite the fact Gant Washington is the capital of the United States, the colored residents were “Jim Crowed” and allowed only in wertain parts of the house.

As the colored press was informed feat the Howard Theatre had been pened as a “test case,” quite naturally ‘waore than ordinary interest was taken dm thé future destiny of the pretty little pizhoure, From the oeginning i was that the colored residents of Washington were exceedingly grateful tp the theatre management for’ giving ‘them such a beautiful amusement place, ‘bet that their admiration.and geatifica- ‘on grew cold when it came to the ques- tioa_ of price of admission.

For the first, time since his return from Europe, Clarence Cameagn White appeared before a New Yore eudience Monday evenine at Bethel A.M. E. Church, and music lovers of New¢ork City and Brooklyn gave somone evidence of their appreciation of . the young violinist’s work. That Mr. White has, heen greatly benefited by his two years’ stay abroad under the im Struction of competent masters cannot he denied by anyone who heard him be- fore he went abroad and who has had the oppertunity td attend a-recital given by him since his return. Mr. White's first piece, Concerto Op. 64, by Mendelssohn, was hig biggest number, which showed that he ig rapidly mastering the art of technique. His light numbers—"Meditation,” by Mas- senet; “Canzonetta,” by d'Ambrosio; “Deep River.” by Coleridge-Taylor, and “Sherzo.” by Van Goens, gave him an opportunity to demonstrate that he knows the trite value of tone poems, while “Fantasie Caprice.” his last num- ber, was delightfully: rendered. Mr. Christopher Gordon. a tenor with a sweet voice: Miss Etta Cannon, whe: gould earn a living as a reader, and Sam Lucas, dean of the colored the- jatrical profession, who put all in good humor with his funny stories, appeared on the program, “Miss “Maude Cuncy was at the piano and officiated with credit. LADIES’ AUXILIARY GROWING. | Sarah Green Byrd, President of the Ladies’ Auxiliary of ‘the Colored Vau- deville Benevolent Association, states gat the recently formed organization is making great progress and that_its membership is increasing weekly.

SOUTHERN SMART 8ET CO. ¢ > Lutt Whitney, of the Southern ‘Smart Set Company, writes: “The Smart ‘Set Company is creating a sensation ip Texas—almost as big as Booker T. Washington in his recent tour through the Lone Star State: 1 am proud of the impression the company is making down here, for it will be eventually the only paying field for a colored show. Our white audiences are growing rap: idly. The white people have learned that our show is clean and that itis much better than the white shows that play in many of the towns in the South. “In nearly every town small delega- tions come to see us and congratulate us on the merits of the show. On Oc- tober 2, the company's first time in Palestine, Tex. a party of white men, including the Sheriff and District At- torney, came to our car and stated that we gave tne best show they had seen in years. CRESCENT THEATRE. Crowded houses have been the rule at the Crescent Theatre every evening for the past two weeks, and business has been’ unsually large.’ In all fairness to the management it should be made Known that the house has been present- ing some good acts which have taken well with the patrons. In Glenn and Glenn the “Crescentites” were entertained last week by one of the strongest colored acts that has ever played at the I3Sth strect house. Glenn and Glenn are said to hail from the Southland, and*if there are other acts of their calibre down South they wil find it profitable to come this way. The female member of the team in particular dances and sings entertainingly. She is not like nine out of every ten of our colored female performers. so deeply concerned about her personal looks tha: she is opposed to doing ‘character work along grotesque lines. She works under cork and cleverly does a Topsy charac- ter. She made a dig hit singing “Piano Man,” and was compelled to respond to many encores. « The act should do away with several suggestive jokes, which are not enjoyed by the class of people who attend the Crescent. Hunter and Chappelle also attracted favorable attention at the Crescent last week. They have a fine idea, using mo- tion pictures in the last part of their act to desceibe their movements on a race track. Chappelle knows how to effectively handle 2 ballad and Hunter talks and sings more like Bert Wil- liams than any other perfortier I have seen, The act should be cut, as some of the talk is unnecessary and dull. Mme. Fairfax was seen at the Cres- cent Theatre about a month ago with a youngster, and scored. She appeared on the bill the first part of this week billed Mme. Fairfax and Company. While the billing. sounds bigger. it cannot be said that the act his gained .strength by its numerical addition. She and the young- ster still do all the principal work, al- though there are five in the company, three wonten and two men in all. Mme. Fairfax has 2 double voice almost as 1 -ge as herself, which is “having some voice,” and in carrying about a company he is paying unnecessary railroad fare. Kelley and Catlin are old favorites at the Crescent, and registered their usual number of jaughs the first three days of the week. Their. closing is weak, howerer, and should be strengthened. FEIN THE WORLD OF SPORT —— By LESTER A. WALTON ncnangenannnennnnnnnenrecerere Colored and Whites Play Great Game. N Tuesday, October 3, an unsuil Oo scene was presented in Key West Fla. A picked team from the white schools of the cify crossed bats with the colored players of the Doug- lass School in an exciting game on Jackson Square. ‘The colored tearh won by the score of 2 to 0. The features of the game were the pitching of Hepburn of the Douglass School, who allowed but twenty-seven opposing batsmen to face him, striking out cighteeg men and allowing but one player on the picked team to reach first, and the quick time in which the contest was played—48 minutes. The umpire called “Play ball” at 3.58, and as the clock was striking the our of four, three men had been put out in the first half of the first inning, The only runs scored were in the second half of the first inning, when Soto and Prichard of the Douglass team were walked and tallied on. Stevens twashase hit to right, which was the only Nit of the came. After the first inning actiber ‘site hooeed.

When Pitcher Redding left the Phila- delphia Giants and joined the Lincoln Giants last July, several fans who had been .closely watching this young and promising pitcher declared that Redding had to work six or seven innings before he began to warm up. in order to pitch effective ball. That Redding is one of the ‘champion long-distance pitchers of today has been proven several times this season. His last demonstration was last Sunday at Olympic Field, when he pitched two games against the Jersey City team of the Eastern League, and won both, Redding won his first game, 6 to 3, and the last 5 to 0. As he was not in good condition in the first inning of the first contest, he was hit for two runs. and the visitors made another run in the ninth inning. “When the second game was called Redding had struck his gait, and allowed but three hits, shutting out the Eastern Leaguers with= out a tally. In the first game Francis. made a home run in the sixth inning with two men on the bases. The scores: weer GAME. | JERSEY CITY. = LINCOLN GIANTS.

Mr. Garner possesses a well trained baritone voice and rendered several selections which quite captivated his audience. Mrs. Frye showed her versatility as a musician by presiding at the piano as an accompanist. The spacious rooms, beautifully decorated with flowers, were filled with many of Chicago's most prominent people. Among them were: Mr. and Mrs. Lawrence Jones, Mr. and Mrs. E. H.

Think about it—a preparation that all you have to do is apply it on the hair and with it you will not need to stay for one day or one week, but no last from it to eight months. Water not nothing else will make it kink again after it has been straightened. Kink-no-more is a wonder worker. So marvellous does it do its work that one can barely believe their work, or like magic, and onshore because the work like magic, and onshore because the work like magic, and onshore because the work like magic. We offer a reward of $199 for any head of hair the Kink-no-more will not straighten. Kink-nore is a vegetable compound; it is perfectly harmless and will not injure the scalp nor hair. But will stop it from causing itching. Kink-nore promotes an invariant growth of healthy hair and keeps it soft and glossy. Remember that Kink-nore is sold under a guarantee to do all that is claimed for it or is sold under a warranty. On the receipt of $1.00 is a regular size box of Kink-nore, enough to strengthen from one to two shades of hair. W. W. ordering when ordered, send post-money order to the company directly.
