NEW ROCHELLE N
NEW ROCHLELL, N. Y., April 10—The Murphy Brothers made their initial bow as restauranters at 253 Huguenot street. Thep propose to conduct a high class chop house and have secured one of the most central places in the city. We wish for them gerat success and believe that such will come to them. New Rochelle has been without a place to secure a decent meal for the strangers who are constantly coming into our city and the "White Front" restaurant will be a most opportune innovation from the hash houses along Mechanic street. Funerals among the Negroes have become quite common during the last two weeks. Friday Master Charles Stedman, who was burned so badly that he died, was buried from St. Catherine A. M. E. Church, and on Saturday a Mrs. Landine followed. Mrs. Rebecca Slater, wife of the Rev. W. H. Slater, died Friday morning after a very long illness. She leaves a husband and daughter to mourn her loss. The funeral will be held Tuesday from Shiloh Baptist Church. Mrs. Slater was well known an oer greatest labor was among the children of New Rochelle. Many were connected with the church through the influence of that oer greatest monument, which will live in it oer young People's Juvenile Club, organized 20 years ago, which as an auxiliary to the church has been of inestimable benefit both spiritually and financially. Easter services were fittingly observed at all the churches, and the people seemed to have entered into the spirit of the redirection of the Christ. Excellent music was rendered and the congregation contributed liberally.
We regret to learn that Harry Junior, who for many years has been janitor of the Westchester, has resigned his position and that a white janitor will now take his place. Such a position as that occupied by Mr. Junior was worth having and we hate to see it fall into the hands of a white man. Mr. and Mrs. Junior now reside at 95 Union avenue. Invitations are out for the wedding of Miss Mattie Allen to Mr. Riley Dickerson. Messrs. D. Harris and Webb are contemplating forming a partnership and do contract building. Both are young men and very efficient carpenters. Mr. Harris is a graduate of Hampton and that of itself means a great deal. Noble and Davia amusement park certainly looks fine and the proprietors are sparing no pains or money to present to the public a high class amusement park.

After all the Negro has a pretty considerable representation in the Federal civil service, with some choice Presidential appointments; and four years hence, if we reelect President Taft, he will have a great many more.
Mr. Charles Banks of Mound Bayon will be one of the handsomest delegates in the Chicago convention. If he should desire to address the chairman it will be impossible not to see him, as he stands quite six feet three in the air.
The Senate has passed the Root bill appropriating $250,000 for the Tri-Centennial Celebration of Negro Emancipation, in favor of the Georgia corporation of the Industrial College, at Navalnah, is president.

The fact is that Ol. Roosevelt fell down in the New York primaries March 28, it made impossible for him to form a National Party.

An Italian woman with four little children was locked up in fail last week because the young Italian woman who sued her for manderling her good name and reputation, and got a verdict in her favor, needed to retent. No; let her go to Italy, where she is Italian and just told me and she must suffer. She talked about me." Many people will accuse the young woman of being hard-hearted, vindictive; but they should not overlook the little fact that the tongue, although a little member, that slanders and shows the name and reputation of an Italian woman, should know what he is doing, or be made to know. A woman with four children should keep her tongue at home.
Gov. Wilson of New Jersey has asked that his name be taken off the Nebraska Populist primary ballot, as he is a Democratic candidate for the Presidential nomination and does not desire to appear on the Populist primary ballot. He is grateful for the honor, of course, but would rather not mix matters. That is honest, and straightforward. He is not a Populist, but a Democrat. Godowr Wilson, the Democratic Party, has any fixed principles he are not acquainted with them. It looks as if the Baltimore convention would nominate Gov. Wilson, who will give his hands full handling a well-balanced opponent like President Taft.

The Chinese people slept a long time before they woke up recently, got themselves a brand-new Republic and cut off their queues, which have for centuries given fame and uniqueness to the Chinese head. The liberation of the Chinese people from the former young child certain, but not conclusive, bear nothing of Wu Ting Fang, the appointed diplomat, who helped to start the new Republic on its way, but of Dr. Sun Yat Sen, who fetched it about, it and that he will devote the remainder of his life to a propaganda to reform the laws and holdings of China. He was a great leader in the new government. In nearly forty country the landed question is the one which ultimately marks the cleavage of the rich and ruling class above and the poor and servicing class below the social line. Negroes in all sections of the country should remember this now when they land and but they can do so and they can. Now is the time to say, when land will never be cheaper than it is.
The Jews have a hard time in most of the European States, being restricted in their business, their labor and their residential living to certain districts.

In Britain, last week, it Kirksanova, 1,000 Jews and 400 families at other points in the main district, were ordered to leave the town and be charged with using the prismity for the admission in dealing in grain. It is the peculiarity of the Jew everywhere that there is a profit in anything he will discover it and if there is any way to get it will find it. It is on this account that the Jew will never be accepted by the main town, the heavy, dull and stupid, of the new farmer and agricultural sort, made for us by the writings of Turgenev, Starpelt, Prince Krapotkin, Leo v. Maxim Gorky, and others. A the Jew among such people would At Ursus the profits in all directions.

Everything reflects our thoughts, if we will have it that way. A blind man looks forever into darkness, but he may see some things in that darkness which are afraid from those who can see, even though they shut their eyes tightly and thus be for the time in like darkness as the blind man. In "Paradise Lost" John Milton has given us deathless word paintings of the things he saw in the darkness of his blindness; in "The Inferno" Gabriel Dante has given us what he saw in the darkness of the dungeon; while Lord Byron's "Prisoner of Chilion" saw only the darkness of the dungeon when restored to liberty and the light of the sun. The outer darkness a man enters when he closes his eyes for a moment, contains things not now dreamed of in the philosophy of mankind.
Great minds in periods of calamity, of want and suffering, when wailings of despair demoralize sound and die on the air, may feel about the situation as their neighbors, but nerve themselves to see the star of hope afar off and cheer and encourage those who would fall by the wayside with brave words bravely spoken of better things to come, without destroying first the old things that have been faithful and true.
In his recent address to the Philadelphia Chamber of Commerce President Taft, as upon other notable occasions, refused to see and proclaim in the light all of the civic and industrial holgoblins Col. Roosevelt and others see in the darkness. For instance, President Taft said in closing:
"Now, I am not a reactionary. I am a progressive. I am not a pessimist. I am not an optimist, and I believe that we are going forward. I can remember in the Philippine Islands, perhaps that is a little too personal a reference, but it did seem to me as if we were making awfully slow progress toward decent, civilized, peaceful government out here, and I never got any satisfaction until I could take a stand six months away and look back six months and then see whether we had not made progress, and so we in this great community ought to look back and see whether conditions have improved with respect to politics, with respect to the direct action of the people, and whether the people have not ruled in such a way as to make this an effective popular government before we try to change it."
This is the correct view that every well balanced, mind should take. Our government has gone forward with tremendous strides ever since Republican policies that do things displaced in 1860, Democratic policies that hinder things from being done, and had done so from President John Tyler, in 1841. There are many reforms made necessary by the growth and needs of the country, and the Republican party has made them, as they came up, for fifty-two years, and will continue to make them without tearing down the National system of government the Fathers built.
NEW BISHOPS.
Within a few weeks both the General Conference of the A. M. E. Church and of the A. M. E. Zoon Church will be in session. One of the duties and responsibilities of these Conferences will be to select a number of new Bishops.
The time has come when all realize that new blood must be put on the Board of Bishops in each of these Churches, otherwise they will go backward instead of forward. There are a number of unworthy men who are "pulling wires" by day and by night, trying to get themselves elected to the Bishopric.
No man who seeks the office by unworthy methods should be elected. The mere fact that a man is willing to give his time and energy to seeking such a sacred office is the highest evidence that he is unworthy of it.
Let the Church deliberately search out the men who will best promote its welfare and put them on the Board of Bishops whether they are seeking the office or not.
THE FORWARD MOVEMENT
We see that some little bit of narrow-minded, jealous fellows in Washington are terribly disturbed because a Negro has been invited to speak at the great Carnegie Religion Forward Movement meeting in Carnegie Hall on April 21.
One of the pleas made by this little blinded group is based on the fact that the colored man selected is not prominent in church work for the race. On the same program where this colored man is to speak President Taft, John Mitchell, the labor leader, and William J. Bryan, the politician are to speak.
Of course, they do not protest because President Taft, Mr. Mitchell or Mr. Bryan are to speak: yet neither one of these three men is in active connection with church work, but it is well known that they are religious men.
The little, blind, narrow group in Washington are perfectly satisfied to have these three men on the program who are not especially identified with church work, but they are terribly exasperated to have the colored man on the program who is not especially identified with church work.
We wonder if this little clique in Washington realizes the sad spectacle which they are making of themselves. Happily, however, the world knows that they do not represent the Negro race but only themselves.
In this environment and programme age, it seems disheartening to see men who have had all of the opportunities afforded by the college and university for enlightenment devoting their time and strength to trying to "throw mud" and to pull somebody down instead of trying to help somebody up.'
There is a class of co-called college men who seem to think it a part of their duty to try to weaken every movement that has for its object the progress of the Negro race. They stand off at a far distance and "throw stones." They very seldom do anything to build up an individual or work in the direction of constructive progress. Their whole idea seems to be to "throw mud."
This-attitude we are glad to say is only assumed by a comparatively small number of college men and that number is growing beautifully less every year. For the most part, the men and women who are coming out of the colleges and universities are exhibiting a broad and generous disposition to help lift, somebody up and to help construct something.
We pity the little, weak fellows who are still working in the dark, thinking only of their own selfish, mean motives. We hope the time will come when they will change their attitude and get much more satisfaction and happiness out of life than they are now getting.
Tearing down and "throwing mud" has never made a big man in the history of the world.
THE PUBLIC AND THE STRIKERS.
A million men engaged in the coal mining industries of Great Britain have been on strike for some time, and untold suffering has resulted to the women and children of the miners and of those in other industries affected by coal mining. The British Parliament has been at its wits' ends to devise a wage scheme that would be satisfactory alike to the miners and operators. The industries of the whole country have been tied up or hampered by the inability of the miners and operators to settle their differences among themselves. The rights of the public, which are more paramount than those of miners or operators, is entirely ignored by the latter, and the Parliament does not know and has not found a way to safeguard those interests. It is a complication of modern industrial development with which British statesmen has not as yet learned to cope.
We are threatened with a long winted coal strike like that which has tied up great Britain. Some 500,000 coal miners have submitted "demands" upon the coal operators; and work has been suspended until May 9, while the sentiment of the contending forces has been ascertained by conference, by vote, and by other ways. There have been sufficient disagreements in the preliminary conferences to show by the temper of the leaders that if no agreement can be reached a strike of long duration will follow. The suffering among the women and children of the miners, like as in the recent cotton mill strikes in New England, threats to be great and much to be regretted.
The conflict of organized labor and capital has reached such a stage of development that it is easy to see that neither cares a rap about the public from whom they both derive their franchise to do business and make profit, the one of wage of labor and the other of interest of capital invested. Here as in Great Britain the statesmanship of the Nation affects not to know how to devise a remedy at law that will protect the rights of the public from the contemptuous disregard of labor and capitalism. But the remedy is simple enough. Public service corporations, those licensed by the State to do business, are not allowed to make above 6 per cent on the capital invested over fixed charges and operating expenses.
Every where labor insists upon a maximum wage scale and a minimum of work in stated hours. The law should exact a maximum wage scale and a maximum of work in stated hours of the laborer. Increase in the wage rate should be governed by the earning capacity of the business above the 6 per cent, guaranty on capital invested. Each State should have a Public Service Industrial Commission, to deal with all public service matters in the State, and the National Public Service Industrial Commission to handle all such of the questions as are inter-state in character. All questions in dispute should be arbitrarily referred to the commission, from whose findings there should be no appeal. In this way only can the public be protected in their rights to uninterrupted service and capitalism and labor unions be forced to fair dealing and a proper distribution of the profits. Among them they gouge the public out of an interest, fixed charges, operating expenses and wages. The public has a right to protect their interests by adequate legislation from the tyranny of both capitalism and trade unionism.
President Taft has recommended the consolidation of several departments at Washington that would result in much saving, and the putting of political appointees of the Internal Revenue Service in the classified civil service.
Hated by all who are so unfortunate as to meet him otherwise than as a follower, monumental as an egotist; dominated by unworthy ambitions and consumed with envy, he has repaid the loyal friendship and devotion to President Taft by the most constantly ingratitude and anachery and now seeks in furtherance of his own miserable ambitions to deprive that good President of the verdict of approval which he has so nobly earned.
Long ago Robert Burns summed up that sort of man in the following lines as he found him in the Scottish Highlands about him:
Oh, would the gods the gift to give us
To see ourselves as others see us!
It is unfortunate for the fame of any
man who has been exalted to the highest
place in the gift of the Nation that
he should deliberately pursue a policy
calculated to prejudice the chances for
success of the party and the men to
whom he has been indebted for the
honor. The Republican party does not
owe Col. Roosevelt anything; Col.
Roosevelt owes the Republican party
everything of public honor that he has
had. It begins to look as if he had
a grudge against the Republican party.
COLOR LINE IN OLYMPIC MEET.
Time was when there was no recognized color line in sports. The question of brawn and muscle endurance, with the necessary headwork to make these effective, opened the way in professional athletics of all sorts, in horse racing, prize fighting and the like; among amateur associations and individual groups it was otherwise, and perhaps always will be. But in professional sports of all kinds now the color line is to be found more or less tightly drawn. One of the Boxing Commissioners of New York State, even, has gravely suggested that black and colored pugilists should not be matched with white pugilists. Pugilism is as low down as sport can get without crawling on its stomach in the pit as crap shooting does.
The victory that John Arthur Johnson won over James John Jeffries at Reno, Nevada, July 4, 1909, has had as far reaching influence on international politics and diplomacy as the battle of Watertloo, which changed anew the map of the world. The Marathon race will be held at Stockholm, Sweden this year. Several Asiatics have entered for one or the other of the features. The London correspondent of the Sunday edition of the New York Sun says:
"We have recently had evidence in other than Olympic fields how the triumph of a representative of a colored race over a white man in an athletic contest may have for reaching political effect. The map of the world changes rapidly, nowadays, new States come into being and new peoples push for recognition as participants in the civilization of the West. The Olympic arena offers a field wherein these claims can be pressed easily and to great advantage; but it would be able to pretend that our standards of sporting ethics and of amateurism mean the same thing when stated in terms of some of the Eastern peoples.
"Is the arena to be thrown open to all the world? Or will it be necessary to deny anybody to restrict the Olympic games to the white nations, with specific exceptions in favor of others whom it may seem desirable to invite to join us." The question is one which reaches beyond the athletic world and involves consideration of politics and statemanship.
The conquest of Asia, Africa, America and Australia by the white races of Europe and the partition of their lands and enslavement or extermination of their people has begun to breed the fear that the physical or mental preeminence of representatives of the conquerors may encourage the former in the masses of them to turn upon the masses of the latter of them. The fear is natural, and was intended to be that way. The final settlement of it may not be by statesmanship or diplomacy but by a universal war between the dark races of religious fanatics under the crescent of Mohamet and of the white races under the Moloch Cross of gold and the crown of greed of the Gentile despoilers of the weak.
The Hon. Timothy L. Woodruff of Kings County is very much of a phoenix. As often as he is reduced to political ashes he flames up again. Now he is a public figure and it is public in Kings County. This is what he should be and we are right glad of it.
The death of Dr. Issue K. Funk, head of the publishing house of Funk and Wagnallis, publishers of "The Standard Dictionary" and many periodicals, principally *The Literary Diarist*, who started life as a Lotharan praacher and laid the foundation of his financial success as publisher to the exposure of the liquor traffic and the building up of the Prohibition party in New York State, was recently announced. With the growth of his other periodicals and his book publishing interests, the temperance newspaper paper, the prohibition party, to be promoted by Dr. Funk's work, like his gospel ministry work; but he was not allowed to pursue the money-getting phantom undisturbed. He got tangled up badly in psychic research, the spirit world and medians, and we judge by some of the things he created one time. We remember very well the little book store in Dey Street, where the great publishing house of today starred thirty years ago. Indeed, we remember the small beginnings of most of the big business concerns of today in New York State of the success of the prohibition thirty years ago and a great learing of great fortunes, and the Little business enterprises they conducted have disappeared. Why?
If we are to have an expedition celebrating the fiftieth anniversary of the freedom of the Negro, pray let some other city than Savannah be selected. Savannah is almost completely isolated from the bulk of Negro population. It is on the extreme eastern-seacoast. Not only this, but one has to wade through racial discrimination waist deep in order to reach Savannah. This means in reaching Savannah one has to wade through "Jim Crow" cars, separate waiting rooms and no accommodations for bathing or eating; and after he gets to the city has "Jim Crow" cars thrown in for good measure.
Please excuse us from Savannah! Let some other city be selected. It will be counted almost a penitentiary offence for a Negro to attempt to ride in a sleeping car owned by the Georgia Railroad in order to get into the city of Savannah.
The day has long since passed when the Negro is going to seek opportunities to have himself humiliated when he can go to parts of the country where he can hold up his head and be a man. The day has long since passed when the Negro is willing to pay for opportunities to have himself humiliated and insulted, unless he is compelled to do so.
Let the exposition be held elsewhere. The Negro will not go to Savannah!
THE HOOKWORM CONQUERED
Prof. J. George Adami of McGill University, says in the New York Medical Journal, that 300,000 people of Porto Rico, a third of the inhabitants, have been treated and cured of theHookworm disease by American medical science.
"They have demonstrated the cause of the prevalent disease of the inhabitants and shown how this disease can be arrested. Through their efforts the disease has been cured, and from being feeble and incapable, the victims of a progressive malady ending in death, the inhabitants of Porto Rico have had their vitality restored to them, have received health, strength and happiness."
We have not heard much of the work of the Rockefeller Hookworm Commission, which was given a million dollars to tight the Hookworm in our Southern States, but we are sure it is doing a good work. What medical science has done in stamping out smallpox and yellow fever, which in the twenty years after the civil war so devastated the population of the Southern States, it should be able to accomplish in combating the Hookworm disease, which, like tuberculosis, is insidious, gradual and merciless. The human race owes more to medical science than to any other of the sciences, as it has not only conquered for us endemic and epidemic diseases of all, sorts but it has laid down for us laws of health of priceless value.
EDITORIAL NOTES
As the minister who was to unite him to Miss Maude Bowman was detained by a flood, Rev. John Peters performed the marriage ceremony himself for himself at Annapolis, Ill. That is the way to crush disappointment, smash it.
The Maryland legislature has killed the local option proposition, and the Democratic stateman who gather in Baltimore, June 15, to nominate candidates for the Presidency will not have to spend the nights in Washington to drown their disgust at the high prices the Baltimore hotels have handed out to them.
A New Hampshire father wants to marry his son's young widow, but he will have to get an enabling act through the legislature in order to do so. Any how, the desire is imperial and should not be encouraged.
The New York Sun has been publishing a running bunch of highly interesting articles on the New York City curling question, "What is a Snob?" What definition we get of him the only definition of him remains the same; that is: a snob is a creature who imagines that he is what he is not. We have many such.
A Philadelphia preacher thinks that church policy should be shaped to please men more policy and women less. It is also said that the preacher is not crazy. One way to fill up the churches is to modernize them, and to make them pleasant places to go, rather than to go from. More preaching about the things of life, about which we have so much to worry, and less about the things of heaven, about which we do not need to worry at all, would also help. If men are not on earth heaven will make the most of us.

The anxious Democracy of the country has been assured that Col. Bryan will not bolt if the Baltimore convention should refuse to nominate the candidates and platform he advocates. But, excepteus has shown, that Col. Bryan, like Gov. Robert R. McDonnell, cannot do what he will do until he does it. When a man has ambition for balance wheel he will go any direction his ambition may take him. It is a fair conclusion, however, that the Democratic party has escaped Col. Bryan and that the Republic party is escaping Col. Roosevelt.
A proposition is being widely discussed that should have far reaching results. Should people who are physically or mentally unfit, as to one or both of them, be allowed to vote in the Republican Church? The proposition may become a political as well as a religious one. There are certain diseases of the mind and of the body known to be contractional in the marriage state, and the children of such unions are often burdened with the diseases of both parents, and hopelessly unfit to vote. The citizens. Has society the right to demand a health certificate of contracting parties? That is the question.

Recently, when the indictments against the meat packer-for violations of the Sherman law, were dismissed in the Federal court, in Chicago, there was very much evidence of the use of meat. Now that the sugar trust magnates have been acquitted, in New York,

However they move the consumers of the prosecuted concern have to pay the costs of the action in sudden or gradual advance in price of the product affected. When the relations of Public Service corporations to the Government are finally determined the actual cost to the consumer will be fabulous.
The English Suffragette window smothers who were sentenced to hard labor are having the time of their lives, as most of them are of the independent sort who do not have to make a living by hard labor but have home found clapping in full citizenship if they were capable of serving the State as men do and are expected to do it, but there is now way in which they can do it. They are simply physically incapable, and many think mentally. As for married women they are hopelessly incapacitated by the obligations of obligations of citizens. The destruction of the home will mean the destruction of the race. The enfranchisement of woman will mean just that.
A NOTABLE EDUCATIOAL INSTITUTION
The following editorial appeared in the Outlook March 30:
INFORMATION ABOUT ALLENSWORTH
Location--Allensworth is in Tulare County, California, situated about half way between Los Angeles and San Francisco, and on the main line of the Santa Fe Radrodf from Chicago to San Francisco, with six passenger trains per day which stop at Allensworth.
Soil--The soil of the Allensworth Colony is composed of a rich delta formation mixed with a sandy loam. It is now producing low crops of alfalfa and all kinds of vegetables in abundance.
Water--To get the best results it is necessary to irrigate your crops in the summer months. We have our large canal system installed and have just developed large flowing artesian wells.
Citizens who have successive heat or mist strikes, and no snow. We have several light rains from December to April. The climate is very cool and delightful. Many of the colonists declare that they have never been so well and happy as since living at Alensworth.
Alfalfa and Cows—One acre of alfalfa will support one cow for one year, besides several hogs and chickens. One good cow will produce about $100 worth of butter-fat per year, or about $100 per acre; not to mention the hogs and chickens. Hogs—They are wonderful money makers.
Poultry—Mrs. J. L. Morris and many others have made money in chickens, ducks, and turkeys. Poultry thrives better in the San Joaquin Valley than anywhere in the United States. We have a fine market, and the supply never equals the demand.
Onions and Potatoes—We strongly urge all to give their attention to the double crops of onions and potatoes. Onions develop from December to June, and potatoes from June to November. Two crops per acre per year. The onion crop should produce $300 per acre an dthe potato crop $100 per acre. Others do this—why couldn't you? All it requires is work. Labor—There is a strong demand for good, reliable men at all nearby ranks during the spring and fall. In fact, the Colony cannot fill the demand for labor. Wages are good, being from $2 to $3 per day—and no race prejudice shown here—and, too, an ideal climate in which to work out of doors all the year around. And cost of living is very low.
Our Aims and Ideals—We hope to reach the heart and soul of every race-loving man and woman to secure their hearty support for Allensworth. We are aiming to gather together only the best of the race—those whose ideals are high, lofty and noble. The moral standard of the Colony is zealously and carefully guarded.
Price and Terms of Land—The price of the land is $110 per acre. Terms $2 per acre-cash and $2 per month. For instance, if you want to buy five acres, send us a money order for $10 and then $10 per month.
Price and Terms of Town Lots—The price of town lots are $100 and up. Terms $5 cash and $5 per month. Important Stats and Information. After deciding how many acres you want to purchase, or how expensive a lot you want, please drop us a postal card or write us a letter and we will gladly advise you how to proceed. It is very simple and easy.

Allensworth, Cal., Dec. 5, 1911.
I visited Allensworth May 6, 1911.
I was so favorably impressed with its
tissue that I did not return to Los
Angeles for my language. I immediately
purchased a lot, put a honeysuckle
on the same and commended business,
being satisfied with my gift. I have
purchased 212 acres in addition. If
you want to become a happy person,
purchase a home in the Allensworth
Colony.
Yours for freedom.

Allenworth, Cal., Dec. 11, 1911
I have been living in Allenworth
Colony for one year, and at this time
it is one hundred per cent, better than
it was one year ago. The Pacific
Farming Co. is still developing more
water, so there will be plenty of water
for irrigation. Everything grows that
we plant. I have seen the best alfalfa
growing here, and have raised some
of the best hibbard squash, that I
have ever seen anywhere, also German
millet. I have sold squash seed
to the Seed Company of Los Angeles
for 25 cents per pound. Onions pay
wonderfully well.
At this writing everything looks
bright for the future of Allenworth,
and you will make no mistake to come
here and cast your lot with us. Labor
is in great demand at all times on
adjoining ranches and colonies at good
wages. Investigate us and then we
know what your decision will be.
Allensworth, Cal., Nov. 26, 1911.
I came here January 13, 1910, for my wife's health, with the intention of returning in a short time. My wife would not leave, so I had to stay. I can say her health is much better, for it is a good climate and we have good, pure water and healthy conditions.
There is lots of work here and at nearby ranches, especially in spring, summer and autumn. The soil is right, and to you that have purchased here I say, hold to it. Keep up your payments regularly, and do your best to get your brothers and sisters and friends to purchase now while they have a chance, and put every spare dollar into this proposition, for it will pay you, and do it as soon as you possibly can.
We have a nice school here of twenty-one pupils, and Baptist and Methodist churches. May God bless you all and may you look in the right direction.
Allensworth, Cal., Dec 8, 1911
It is the ideal place for those of our race who want to make a mark in life now, and with our good soil and water we can grow anything that is most commonly grown elsewhere.
I am running a general store and I opened on February 16th last. My gross receipts are now $600 per month and I have only bought 100 pounds of onions for my store since April last, for we have grown all that we needed on half of a small town lot.
As for, the future, if our people will only see the light, keep up their payments now and help us and the Pacific Farming Company, it will be the ideal city of refuge.
Dr. Ernest Lyon Principal Speaker at Services Held Under Auspices of St. Mark's Lyceum—Dr. Blydon a Brilliant Scholar.
Memorial services in honor of the late Edward Wilmot Blyden of Liberia, were held at St. Mark's M. E. Church Thursday evening under the auspices of the St. Mark's Lyceum. The services were well attended. The Lyceum Quartet and C. C. Clark sang several appropriate selections. George W. Young was master of ceremonies. J. E. Bruce of Bakers, N. Y., gave interesting reminiscences of the late scholar, who died in Surrey Leon, West Africa, February Land Dr. Ernest Lyon, ex-Minister to Liberia delivered the eulogy.
Mr. Blyden was free born and had an art of independence common to men born in an atmosphere of freedom. There was in him no trace of foreign blood, his ancestors having happily escaped the wiles of miscegenation. He was descended from the Ebos, one of the most courageous, warlike and intellectual tribes of all Western Africa. The choice terms in the English language were used by him to describe his connection. There was nothing about Africa or the Africans that he seemed ashamed of.
"He was proud of his race and the color of his skin, which was as soft and as beautiful as that of a woman. He was ready upon all occasions to defend the dignity of his race. And why should a man of African descent feel any less pride in acknowledging his connection with tribes like the Mandingans, or Vans, or Jollas, or Deys, or Grebass, or sorites of others, whose people have come to recognize the man of observation, than should the man of Sudan descent in acknowledging his ancestors, who were worshipping idolators, the mistletoe, offering human blood out of human skulls? Young Blyden emigrated to Liberia during the progress of its national evolution, which marked the rise of the republic, from a colony to an independent sovereignty. He was one of the men who helped to shape its national destiny. In Liberia at that early period he found the opportunity to satisfy his intellectual cravings. Liberia College, the national institution, then in Liberia, which he founded, which his soul learned. Here he demonstrated his capacity for higher education, his aptness for the classics, and his intense love of the dead languages. His mastery of the Latin, Greek and Hebrew was phenomenal.
"He was charmingly familiar with the literature, not only of the English but of the French, German and Italian, whose languages he spoke with fluency and academic precision. The Modamedans of West Africa regarded him as an authority on the Arabic, and his labors among them as commissioner of education won the esteem of the Sultan of Morocco, by being the author of his honors and distinctions of which no other English speaking member of the Negro race has been permitted to enjoy. This man who, on account of his race and color, had been refused association with the descendants of American pirates and slave barons, was afterward admitted into the presence of royalty and became the constant companion of people of title rank and distinction, notably William E. Gladstone, Palmerston, Lord Salisbury, the Earl of Derby, Charles Dickens, Charles Summer, Fred Douglas and John M. Langston."

The biggest musical event that has taken place in this city for a number of years was the rendering of Dudley Buck's famous cantata, "The Story of the Cross" by the Bethany Choral Union at the Bethany Baptist Church last Thursday evening. An audience, composed of members of both races, was present, and all speak in highest terms of the singing of the cantata. Professor T. A Bronson, the musical director of the Union, should receive great praise for the efficient manner in which he trained the voices, and each person taking part should be given credit for giving their time and services, thus making it possible for this affair to be a success. Miss Jennie Charleton is the president and Mrs. Sadie Campbell the secretary of the Choral Union.

READ THE WORDS OF OTHERS
Gentlemen:
I cannot begin to tell you all the benefits I have received since the arrival
of the specimens of Loadstone you sent me.
For many years I was convinced that no person lived who was more unfortunate than myself. Less in business; death of loved ones and other troubles too numerous to mention, were driving me to a state of fright. A friend told me to write you for information regarding the system of two Loadstones and their powers.
As a last resort I did so, and later purchased two of them. Since then the great change in my career has been so remarkable as to be almost beyond belief. My business increased rapidly, and not a thing has occurred to mar my state of happiness. You are as liberty to use
this letter as reference, for I believe it is my duty to let the words know of the wonderful change in my life, that I believe was brought about through the power and influence of two Loadstones.

NEGRO-SOUTN'S GREATEST ASSET
(Continued from Page 1)
possible to get many Negroes to work full time. In order to meet this situation, the standards of living for the Negro must be raised. He must be made to want better homes, more comfort, some reading material, better food, better clothes. To this end there must be a raising of standards through the better training of the masses of Negroes.
"If the South wants to be free from a harvest of crime, it is none too soon to deliberately start on a more definite plan of Negro training. Last of all, one ought to say that, regardless of the economic improvement, health improvement and lessening of criminality, it is no less than human to give delinite attention to this great problem. The very tact that some men are discouraged, that they feel the weight, of this great ignorant mass pressing upon our southern life, is all the greater reason why a group of broad-minded educators should honestly face and heroically address a meeting like this.
Log School Must Go.
"In order that we may undertake a more aggressive policy, four definite lines of improvement are demanded. First, among these stands the need for a more attractive school equipment. The log school house for the training of Negro children is still greatly in evidence. South Carolina has 1,777 school buildings for Negroes, the average cost of the building and grounds being $46.88. When one remembers that this includes all the buildings in the cities, one sees that the average school building is the merest but. South Carolina does not stand alone in this regard. I visited a large cotton plantation in Kansas recently where the plantation owner showed me $90,000 worth of gathered cotton ready for the market, where the plantation funders of Negro children with families, yet when I drove to the Negro school house, a mile away from the headquarters of the plantation, it was such a place as is fitted for the housing of horses and cattle. The annual report of education in one of the states in the South, speaking of these buildings, says: "The Negro school houses are miserable beyond description. They are usually without comfortable equipment, proper lighting or sanitation. In most cases they are a serious reflection on our civilization."

Ily told the chamois bag containing the two Landstones on the dresser and forgot them. Trouble began as of old; my husband was fretful and finding fault with everything. I was all out of sorts myself and wondered what had happened to cause so much discord all at once. Finally I remembered the Landstones and began to search. A few days later I found them banked away in my machine drawer, where one of the children had put them. Now everything is far as I am concerned, is moving along slowly but my husband, who laughed when the Landstones first arrived, has changed his time, and has sent you an order for a pair for himself.

"The next great thing in an advanced policy is for a larger amount of money to be spent on the colored children. One state in the South annual spends $1,202 on every white child enrolled and $1,71 a year on every Negro child enrolled. At the rate of $1,71 a Negro child would have spent on its education in twelve years, of school life $20,52, which is very far less than what is spent annually on the children of many of our Northern States."

TO MAKE EASTERN TRIP
Special to TWN New York Age:
Boston, Mass., April 9—After some effort on the part of tocar Baptist ministers in the cities of Washington, Baltimore, Wilmington, Philadelphia, New York and this city, it was announced that the secretary of the Sunday School Congress Movement would make an Eastern tour and visit these cities. The service of the Rev. Henry A. Boyd, secretary of the Congress, a movement that has created much favorable comment in this section of the country because of the great work it is doing among the Sunday School forces, has agreed to make a visit East. While nothing definite is given out by Mr. Boyd, who is also assistant secretary of the National Baptist Publishing Board, it is known that since the calling of the Sunday School Congress to meet at Tuskegee Institute, Ala., from Wednesday, June 5, to Monday, June 10, he has been unable to leave the office.
Quite a number of invitations have been extended the secretary of the movement to come East and give the people first hand information concern-

INFORMATION comes from the Middle West that preparations are
being made to take a minstrel company, composed of colored performers, to Australia in the near future, and that rehearsals are being held in one of the Michigan cities. Just who is backing the project is a piece of news that has not yet reached New York, but it is hoped that the parties are thoroughly reliable.
In recent yeats many colored performers have been lured away from the United States by promoters glib of tongue and possessing the power to draw pretty verbal pictures that so appalled to the imagination of many colored artists that they were enticed to foreign shores only to find conditions entirely different than what they had been represented.
It would, therefore, be well for those thinking of leaving with the minstrel company to investigate fully into the reliability of the person or persons sending the show to Australia, as well as go over their contracts carefully with some one who is capable of being able to tell when such an instrument is properly drawn. A bestesting sin of many coloured performers is to sign contracts without reading carefully and understanding all of the provisions contained therein, and then trying to make trouble when they wake up to the terms agreed upon.
Performers who foolishly sign contracts which give managers the better off the proposition have no one to blame but themselves. In these days of commercial activity and competition the manager is always going to make a contract to his decided advantage, if possible. So when a performer attaches his signature to a contract which he later finds out to be a one-sided instrument in favor of the manager he should get consure the "party of the first part," but blame himself for having got the worst of the deal.
But returning to the proposed tour of the minotel company to Australia There are many reasons why the minotel men should take the proper precaution before leaving this country. For a colored company to go to Australia and strand affects the colored citizens in the United States as well as the colored performers who encounter such bad luck. Race prejudice in England is said to have increased in late years owing to the presence in that country of idle colored actors, who have been compelled to get food and a place to sleep on their wits.
Several instances can be cited in which colored performers have been taken to Europe by irresponsible promoters, who have taken barn-storming companies abroad, and upon finding that no money could be realized have left the colored actors to rove about and look out for themselves thousand of miles away Broadway. How some of the penniless performers begged for assistance, while others followed avocations none too creditable is information generally known in theatrical circles. Had these people had their contracts drawn up properly there would have been no need of them remaining abroad.
There is very little if any prejudice on account of color in Australia, and the colored singers who have visited that country in years previous have been shown every consideration. The Fink Justice Singers and other colored musical organizations not only made a great impression in Australia along artistic lines, but their deportment off the stage as ladies and gentlemen made for them many friends.
Here's hoping that when the minstrel company now rehearsing in the Middle West goes to Australia the members of the organization will so conduct themselves that the people of that country will continue to regard the colored man in America with high favor. Let them follow up the work of the Fisk Jubilee Singers and other colored vocalists instead of tearing down the good impression they have made.

NEGROES SHOULD BOYCOTT.
In the Cleveland Gazette of recent date appeared the following:
Many of our people have noticed that "the song shop" at the corner of Ontario street and the Public Square, conducted by Jeroen H. Remick Company, New York City and Detroit, has a notice in their Ontario street window to all self-respecting members of our race to stay out of that "shop."
There are 20,000 Afro-Americans in this city and all are "musical." Stay out of that "song shop" until it shows more respect for us. Pass the word along to all you meet. New York and Detroit papers please republish this notice.
Instead of the Cleveland Gazette asking New York and Detroit papers to copy it should ask all the colored papers in the country to republish its article. Colored people in the United States are lovers of music and purchase annually hundreds of dollars worth of songs and instrumental numbers. That the Remick Company, the largest music publishing house in the country, gets a large share of our patronage cannot be denied. However, if it does not care to have our nickels and dimes in one city the colored musicians in the other cities should show their loyalty by refusing to buy music from the Remick people.
Many white business institutions, as do many white individuals, underrate the value, influence and status of the colored citizens in this country, and the sooner we emancipate them from their peculiar motions about us the better. There is no more effective method of doing this than by withholding the currency of Uncle Sam from their ever-yawning pocketbooks, a receptacle where the color line is entirely forgotten.
The Negro press of this country should so organize as to be able to inform the members of the race of all business firms that see fit to discriminate in the various cities. There are times when radical measures are necessary, and a general boycott on all such discriminating concerns would bring them to their senses. "In union there is strength," and it is high time for the Negroes of this country to find out if the saying is full of truth (or meaningless.

tongue solos go to make up a very good program for a ten-piece band. The Mason family, in a clever musical act are a hit in the oleo. Gus Goms has got his fire juggling act to such a degree of satisfaction that he is thinking of going into the vaudeville. The Turners, in their gymnasium act, are a scream from start to finish. Rose Goins never fails to get the audience. Albert Preveaux, the orchestra leader, knows how to select numbers that meet with the approval of the public.
WOLFSCALE'S BAND.
One of the features of "Cleopatra," the big spectacle of Barnum and Bailey's Circus, now at Madison Square Garden, is Wolfscale's Band appearing as Egyptians mounted on camels. This is the first band in America that ever attempted to play while mounted on the backs of camels.
The members of the band are: James Wolfscale, manager and director; Roy Wolfscale, cornet; Omer Thomas, cornet; W. Smith, clarinet; Edgar Campbell, clarinet; Troy Wolfscale, alto; George Beckom, alto; H. Gordon, trombone; J. McDonald, trombone; W. Brown, snare drum; H. Brown, bass drum.
Daisy Webster and Lottie Pryor, soubrettes with Mr. Wolfscale's company take important parts in the spectacle as "Charmion" and "Iris," attendants to "Cleopatra."
CRESCENT THEATRE
The two leading acts at the Crescent Theatre the first half of the week were the Whitman Sisters and Pick and James Crosby. The Whitman Sisters—Essie and Alberta—furnish some lively entertainment which consists of dancing and singing, and they make several striking changes in costumes. They have a pick who is quite nimble on his feet. James Crosby has a good single turn. His monolog goes strong and his last songs go stronger.
Spartan Girls Get Revenge
Two female basketball teams—the Spartan girls of Brooklyn and the Y. W. C. A. quint of Washington, D. C., were principals in an interesting match held Tuesday evening at New Star Casino. The local girls got even with the Washington team for the defeat administered them in the capital city several weeks ago by coming our victorious over the Y. W. C. A. by the score of 6 to 4.
A large and fashionable crowd saw the contest, which was aggressively played. Although many pounds lighter than the visitors the Spartan girls made up in agility what they lacked in brawn and managed to make the inside of the baskets the landing place of the ball more often than the Y. W. C. A. quint. At the end of the first half the score stood 4 to 3 in the Spartan Girls' favor.
The second half was marred by a dispute over the calling of a foul.
Genevieve Harris, right forward of the Spartana, complained that Minnie Sumner, center of the Washington team, had slapped her in the face while stretched outright on the floor. She called a foul, which Referee Holey Douglass seemed inclined to allow until Coach Oliver of the Y. W. C. A. quint registered a protest, the latter contending that a foul should have not been called. After much unnecessary talk between the heads of both teams Coach Oliver took the visitors off the court, but finally returned and finished out the game. Twenty minutes were taken on arrows.
Edith Trice, the speedy little left guard of the Spartans, played the star game for her team, and Isadore Kenney and Sylvia Piper did good work for Washington.

Lincoln Giants' News
John Lloyd, the heavy-hitting short stop, will captain and manage the Lincoln Giants this season despite his statement last fall that he would not be at the head of the McMahon team. Captain Lloyd expects to have a number of new faces on the team. Redding, Williams and McClellan will do the principal slab work for the Lincolns. Lloyd writes that Redding is in fine shape and will leave Cuba for his home in Atlanta next week. When the big pitcher appears in Harlem he will have on a new Panama hat that will set the natives along 135th street to talking. Lloyd will be in New York within a few days.
Rod McMahon has been working hard to secure the lease of Olympic Field, and it is reported that he has managed to get the grounds for another season.

Mr. McPherson, who writes under the nom de plume of "Cecil Mack," is the author of the city, and was for several years manager of the Gotham-Attucks Music Publishing Company. He has been identified with such hits as "Teasing," "Couis of Mine," and "Hannah from Savannah." Curtis was the first female to be married to a student to practice dentistry in the state of New York.
Announcement Luncheon.
On Friday afternoon, April 5, a unique announcement luncheon was given at the home of Miss Dora Cole. 102 West 136th street, announcing the engagement of Miss Dora Cole to Conrad V. Norman. Th affair seems to have been a cleverly arranged plan of Cupid and Innocent guests to be present to meet two strangers. After being presented to the guests of honor, all were invited downstairs to the dining room, where a beautifully decorated table, the handwork of a real artist, greeted eyes of those assembled. The color scheme of those pieces was large, basket of lavender sweet peas was suspended over the center of the table form which hung a bouquet for each of the guests present. Lavender napkin rings, pretty hand painted place cards made by Mr. Goldsborough and Conrad Norman all added a dainty touch to the mass of lavender loveli-
A very beautiful menu was served by the caterer, Miss Gertrude Stewart. Just before the dessert course Mrs Gertrude immediately demanded silence. Then in succession, small placards were held up on which were written the following instructions: Draw bouquets. To the hurries of the guests, the silk hats were attached to each pose. Find lavender envelopes under dolls. Deliver to addresses. Open and read aloud, came the next instructions on the placards. The guests obeyed and waited in the room with the envelope "I told you so." The next placard contained the word "What?" A telegram was then read which gave the following information: "Hidden within your favor deep. In secret which will no longer keep."
And then came the order to investigate favors. In the little silk bag was found a little lavender heart containing Cupid's proclamation: Know ye all, wherefore the house of Norman, and Dora, daughter of Robert, of the house of Cole, having reached the years of discretion and understanding, seek admission into the State of a trimony. I. Daniel Cupid, Governor of said state, sent me a letter of admission, soon after June fifteenth, nineteen hundred and twelve. Written under my hand and seal on this fifth day of April, nineteen hundred and twelve. (Signed) Daniel Cupid. (Soal).
Instructions were next given to open the box, found within the oak. This was done and to the surprise of all was found a small oval-shaped silver frame containing the picture of Miss Dora Cole and Mr. Norman. This seemed to delightfully please each guest and straightway congratulations were showered upon the little toilete.
After luncheon each person was given an envelope containing a small red heart cut into five pieces. To the lady who first succeeded in piecing and presenting a good heart to a prize recipient, Terry, the first lady Donatella Heart, a Heart contest with pench and paper followed next and Miss Kate Johannah, whose engagement was recently announced, proved the victor in this contest.
A heart hunt for sixty little red hearts hidden in the spacious parlors and created much meriliment, Miss Lella Norman, won first prize by finding twelve of the hidden hearts.
An excellent musical treat was then furnished by several of the accomplished guests present, when Miss Lella Norman, Mrs Nellie Wore Mundy, who shortened her stay in Washington after appearing at a recital in that city in order to be present at the luncheon; Miss Grace Curle, Miss Anna Choroh, a French Canadian chum of Miss Cole, a French sisters were invited to the event; Miss Eta Cannon, and the hostess. All left feeling that the affair was the most clever announcement party ever given in our social circles.
The invited guests were: Misses Sara Bailey, Etta Cannon, Grace Currie, Anna Chorsch, Jesse Fortune, Michael Jackson, John Kornan, Margaret Lottie Karney, Plainfield, N. J.; Emily Levine, Nettle Moore, Richmond Hill; Lella Norman, Pauline Turner; Mehdames Helen Curtis, Hattie Berry Harnes, Nellie Norman Mundy, Patton, Dalay Caryle Reed and Sadie Dorette Tandy.

Not with hot irons. But do it with (Kink no more, the greatest best straightening preparation on earth). Kink no more will straighten the kinkiest kind of hair. Think about it—a preparation that all you have to do is apply it on the hair and with little trouble, it becomes straight, not to stay for one day or one week, but to last from six to eight months. Water not nothing one will make it kink again after it has been straightened. Kink-no-more is a wonder work, more lovely than it its work that one can hardly believe their own eyes. It works like magic, and is unique because there is not another preparation that more like it. We offer a reward of $100 for any head of hair the kink-no-more will not straighten.
Kink no more is a vegetable compound it is perfectly harmless and will not injure the scalp nor hair. But will stop it from falling out; positively removes dandrug; promotes a luxuriant growth of healthy hair and keeps it soft and glossy. Remember that Kink no more is sold under a guarantee to do all that is claimed for it or money refunded. We will send to anyone on the receipt of $1.00 a regular size box of Kink no more, enough to straighten from one to two heads of hair. When ordering wind registered letter, posta money order or express money order. Liberal inducements offered to agents. Write today for special terms. Enclose 2 cwt stamp to reply. Agents wanted everywhere.
