COLORED WAITERS TO GIVE UP POSITIONS Can Remain in New York but Do Not Think it Profitable RECEIVING BIG MONEY During Strike Negroes Gelling $3 a Day - Going to Summer Resorts- George W. Holbert Writes. There is very little likelihood that in the future colored waiters will be employed by the leading eating places of New York in large numbers. In fact, within the next week or ten days it is highly probable that there will not be a single colored man carrying a tray in any of the first class hotels or restaurants in Manhattan. At present there are about one hundred Negro waiters working in the best hotels, chiefly at the Plaza, Breslin and Marseilles. Their exit is expected to take place within a few days as the striking whites are giving in and each day finds many returning to work. The hotel managers, while making some of the concessions asked, have flatly refused to recognize the International Hotel Waiters' Union. The colored waiters at present employed could hold their jobs if they desired. They have not been notified that their services would not be needed much longer. To the contrary they have been told they could remain as long as they pleased if their work was satisfactory. At the Hotel Breslin the entire crew is composed of colored men and the management has informed them that there was no disposition to make a change unless they wanted to leave. It is claimed by those familiar with conditions that the colored waiters working at the Plaza and other hotels will soon give up their jobs because they can find more profitable situations during the summer at the various resorts throughout the country. Since the colored men were installed in the white eating places they have been paid at a rate of $3 a day (working seven days) together with their board and lodging. When the white waiters struck they were only getting $25 a month and board, and protested against the quality of food they were compelled to eat. With the strike over, which will be a matter of a few days only, the colored waiters will be offered $30 a month, which is at a rate of $60 less than what they have been receiving during the strike. They do not think they would profit by working in New York at $30 a month and tips, when they can go to a summer resort where business will be good and make $500 during the season. It was give up on Wednesday at the headquarters of the Head and Side Waiters' Association in 580 street that the colored waiters do not contemplate affiliating with the International Hotel Waiters' Union. In gro waiters throughout the country are showing more than ordinary concern in the proposed conference of colored waiters, although there is a dif- reference of opinion as to white lines should be followed in organizing Wants Negress to Affiliate White Whites George W. Holbert, finance secretary of Local No. 634, Minnesota, Minn., writes on the subject and follows: To the Editor of Time Am: In your paper of some admonition there appeared an article entitled "A Conference for Colored Waiters." The article touched upon things that are so vitally important to us as waiters, that I (being one of the craft) beg leave to offer a few suggestions. I am heartily in favor of organization, but not along the lines as laid down in the article mentioned. If we are being dispensed with every day and everywhere, somebody is taking our places and it must of course be the white waiter. So, just as long as he stands ready to supplant us, all the organizing we can do among ourselves will avail us nothing. Over fifty per cent. of the white waiters are unmonized, and a great majority of that fifty per cent are mem- (Continued on page 8) ARRESTED ON FRAIL CHARGE BY GOVERNMENT Mrs. Bristol Moeerman stone is implicated in Case WEALTHY WOMEN CONNECT Claim that Moeoman Blackstone Butler Wrote Letters making for civil Aid.

Renard Overton, a Negro boy in the junior class, was prize winner in the youthful aeronautical contest held at Stuyvesant High School Saturday. All the airships on exhibition were made by the members of the Stuyvesant Aeronautical Society. There were copies of all the standard models, as well as original variations designed by the youngsters. The prize for speed was won by a special racing monoplane designed by Renard Overton. It made a continuous flight of 1,600 feet in sixty-two seconds. In order to show that the tiny aeroplanes would be propelled perfectly by motors, if any could be found light enough for the purpose. Overton susended one of his machines from the ceiling by a light cord and adjusted a small electric motor to it. The aeroplane flew merrily about in a circle for about 15 minutes. NEGRO GRADUATES AT CORNELL SPECIAL TO THE NEW YORK ACE ITHACA, N.

ARRESTED ON FRAUD CHARGE BY GOVERNMENT Mrs. Bristol Minerals Blackstone is implicated in Case Claim that Mesdames Blockstone and Butler Wrote Letters making for Financial Aid. On Saturday, June 15, Mrs. Irene Moorman-Blackstone and Mrs. Mary Butler will have to stand trial in the United States Court, Brooklyn, on the charge of using the mail to detraud, Mrs. Blackstone is well known, having been manager of the Harper-Moorman Reality Company, which was located in Brooklyn. Mrs. Butler is said to be the wife of a Brooklyn minister. The names of wealthy women are connected with the arrest and prosecution of Mesdames Blackstone and Butler, Mrs. E. H. Harriman, Mrs. James Speyer, Mrs. Fred. B. Pratt and Mrs. Tiffany, being among those who claim that the colored women attempted to victimize them through the mail. Mesdames Blackstone and Butler were arrested last week by the Federal authorities at the instance of the Brooklyn Bureau of Charities, which has charge of looking after those who are in destitute circumstances and worthy of charitable consideration. It is claimed by the Federal authorities that wealthy women began to receive letters from Mesdames Blackstone and Butler about two weeks ago in which strong appeals for financial aid were made. Both are said to have represented themselves as widows of preachers who had died leaving them in very destitute circumstances. Mrs. Blackstone is accused of asking for $3,150, setting forth she needed $3,150 to pay off a mortgage, which payment was necessary or she would lose her property at $22 Herkimer street, Brooklyn. Mrs. Butler is said to have asked for $1,000 to be used in providing for her support. The letters were sent to the Brooklyn Bureau of Charities for investigation, which later turned over the correspondence to the United States officials. Postoffice Inspector Tarsons was assigned on both cases, and his conclusion were that the two women were guilty of using the mail to defraud. Their arrest followed. They were arraigated before United States Commissioner Benedict, United States Attorney Beck representing the Government. Each was held in default of $500 bail. Mrs. Blackstone is out on bail. CONCORD CHURCH TO BUILD. Concord Baptist Church, Brooklyn, is planning to rebuild on its present site, Duffield street and Myrtle avenue, a large and imposing edence which will cost quite a sum. The decision to rebuild was reached at a recent conference between the officials of the church and the Rev. Dr. William M. M. pastor. Plans and specifications for the erection of the proposed building have not been made. Concord Baptist Church is one of the largest colored churches in Brooklyn, having about 1,500 members. Rev. David D. Turner, 70 years old, and pastor of the Shiloh Baptist Church, Jersey City, N. J., is locked up in the city prison in default of $5,000 bail, charged with violating the New Jersey white slave laws. The preacher's wife runs an employment agency, where she claims she handles all classes of help, both white and black. The agency is conducted at the parsonage. For some time the immigration officials have suspected the Rev. Mr. Turner. Finally Samuel M. Auerbach of 2319 Crotona avenue, the Bronx, an agent for the North American Civic League for Immigrants, laid the matter before Capt. John Cody of the City Hall Police Station in Jersey City. Cody arranged for Auerbach, a woman investigator and a police matron to visit Turner. This visit was made yesterday afternoon. Auerbach and the women got two colored women from Turner, and asserts that he told Turner they were wanted for immoral purposes in New York. He gave Turner SS. Auerbach got a warrant from Acting Judge Edward Markley and on it arrested Turner at his home. ATTENDANTS ELECT OFFICERS.

PRICE, 5 CENTS PYTHIANS WIN A BIG VICTORY United States Supreme Court Decides in Favor of Negroes CAN RETAIN THE NAME Chief Justice White Reverses Decision of Courts of the State of Georgia Movement in Southern States to Prevent Colored Orders from Using Names will be Stepped. Special to THE NEW YORK AGE. WARHINGTON, D. C., June 12.—Chief Justice White's decision, which was rendered Monday, in which it was held that the Negro Knights of Pythias of Georgia have the right to use the name and emblems of the order, is regarded as one of the most important decisions ever handed down by the United States Supreme Court relative to the rights of a fraternal organization. In deciding the case in favor of the colored Knights of Pythias all the members of the United States Supreme Court concurred with Chief Justice White except Justice Holmes and Larton, who dissented. This decision is far-reaching in its effect, as there has been a general movement throughout the Southern States to restrain Negro societies from using the names and emblems also used by white orders. Now the white organizations will be compelled to give up their fight in view of the stand taken by the Supreme Court. The news that the colored Pythians of Georgia had won their case in the highest court of the land has been received with great enthusiasm by the Negro members of the order throughout the country. Since the ruling in the case of the colored Eliza, which was decided against them a few days ago by the New York Court of Appellation, the colored Pythians have been commemorated. The position taken by the United States Supreme Court is different from the Supreme Court of Georgia, which affirmed the judgment of the lower court enjoining the colored Knights of Pythias of Georgia from using the name of Pythian or the Pythian conflicts and insignia or any imitation of the parent order of that name which has a white membership exclusively. The Georgia court based its decision on the rules of law which protect the public against unfair trade methods. Justice Holmes and Justice Lurton dissented. Chief Justice White held that there was no evidence to show that the colored lodges had injured their white namesakes in any way, and massmach as the Negroes had maintained their organization without complaint from the whites for more than twenty years, their membership having attained 300,000, the white lodges were guilty of laches and could not be heard to complain in a court of equity under such circumstances.

It comes a unique factor in the working out of "the problem." Shaw House is unusual and typical of Boston only, in that its residents are both white and colored. It not only carries on the usual settlement work in way of classes, clubs and recreation, it is making itself a recognized medium for the opinions and courtesies between the best white and colored people of Boston. During the year Miss Eaton has successfully carried out a series of conferences to which have been invited leading white people and representative colored people. At these conferences most interesting and beneficial discussions of race and community have been indulged in and at these meetings such people as Dr. Fleischer, Dr. Mann, W. H. Lewin, Dr. Rowley, Miss Baldwin and Jane Addams have taken active part. It is in such work that Miss Eaton is making the house of great and peculiar value to us. During the month just closed many interesting and delightful conferences by the following sequences of the house by the following Mrs. J. H. Lewis, Mrs. T. E. Courtney, Mrs. J. H. P. Ruffins, W. H. Lewis, Lucius Hicks and Philip Alston. HARTFORD. CONN. Regular Correspondent of THE ACK Hartford, Conn., June 12—Since the pastorate of the Rev. Kimball Warren this church has enjoyed a period of religious uplift, social enjoyment and prosperity not surpassed if equalled in history. His ministrations have been tireless and unceasing and we wish hereby to assure him of our deep appreciation of his effort for the spirit, social and moral welfare. The Rev. Warren has been with us now about eighteen or nineteen months. It has been the most successful of any in the history of the church, spiritually, numerically and harmoniously. Since he has been with us there has been added to the church five by baptism, and by letter thirty-three, and by letter seventy-three. Mortgage has been reduced three thousand dollars. Busy as the Rev. Warren is in his own parish, he has found time to assist one of our sister churches in the state in a ten days' meeting, which proved to be a success, by thirteen or more being added to the said church. Dr. Warren took charge of our church September 1, 1910. members we at the time being 277 and now enjoy a membership of 384. He has officiated at twelve marriages and nine funerals. The Sunday school has an average attendance of 135, and the B.A. U. has increased two-fold. Culture's two ladies auxiliaries connected with the church, are working splendidly. There is soon to be organized a men's club. Mrs. Gertrude Tramml, 154 Mather street, is quite ill at the present writing. Miss Harriette J. Taylor and Miss Rhoda Phillips, both of Mather street.

It is safer and more profitable to raise chickens in the day time than in the night time. Don't be ashamed to begin business in a small way. The chances are that you may grow into a business man in a big way. The General Conferences have all done their work and gone home for four years. Think of the large number who were called to be bishops and the small number who were chosen. It is a very gratifying thing to see a small business grow under your hand day by day into a big business. But you will not see the big business fact unless you start the small business venture. The Age wishes well the army of young graduates who have finished their school work and now face "the world, the flesh and the devil" and hopes they may all win out in the fierce conflict. Col. Roosevelt says he will not attend the Chicago convention unless "circumstances demand it." We shall not be surprised if circumstances should find a way to demand it. They are very obliged to those who control them, but very ugly towards those they control. The Richmond Planet says it has "great faith in the final triumph of right" and is content, in the language of the prophet, to "wait until the day breaks." But faith without work, is like waiting without hustling while you wait, as a reed shaken by the wind, will always keep the final triumph of right so far in front as not to be reachable. The Columbia Flowman, who is a very sensible penman, says "white people are being troubled over the very law which they passed to eliminate the Negro vote." That is the way bad laws always work, rising up finally to confuse their makers. If it were strictly written up by special laws made to satisfy the greed or hate of special interests. President Taft says: "If the people become dependent on one man the glory of the Republic will depart and its constitutional features will be destroyed." That has been the history of mankind from the earliest times. It is not good to turn away from old law and customs which have been tried in the fire of time and proved good. A nation, like an individual, should "prove all things and hold fast that which is good." The Senate has passed a bill compelling contractors on Government work to work their employees only eight hours. An eight hour work day with eight hours pay is not what the labor organizations desire. They really want ten hours pay for eight hours work. If they get it the public will have to pay contractors the extra charge in favor of the wage account. The wage account of those who be compelled to pay by the hour for work. Piece work, after all, is the best and fairest, as a person then receives full value for his work whether he be a slow or rapid worker. Most workers are slow, very slow. "Oscar W. Underwood of Alabama ought to have the Democratic nomination for the Presidency," says the influential Boston Herald. Mr. Underwood thinks about it just as the Herald does. It appears that Mr. Underwood, although serving a Southern district in Congress, was born on the banks of the Ohio River and that his family rendered "conspicuous service" in the Union army, facts not generally known. On the other hand, Governor Woodrow Wilson was born in the South, and has all of the Southern politician's carmarks that make him offensively objectable, being cold-blooded like a snake, unreliable in his friendships, and disposed to dominate inolently any situation in which he finds himself. As between Underwood and Wilson, the Alabama congressman is far and away to be preferred. The stand-pat. Republican Philadelphia Press says that "neither President Taft nor Col. Roosevelt will have an undisputed majority of the convention when it is called to order," and of the Roosevelt program to force the fighting for control and preventing Senator Elliu Root of New York from being temporary chairman and pitching the keynote it says, "There is a courage and audacity in this, but these are Rooseveltian qualities." Perhaps they are, but qualities in which Col. Roosevelt has no monopoly. They are rather qualities possessed by the average leader in any department of effort and in making American lower and make them the best citizen, laborer and soldier in the world. Napoleon Bonaparte held to if that man was fit to command who was not fit to obey. There will be display of plenty of American courage and audacity in any situation where they are needed. Black. Wherever this business group were employed colored people, they could not be taken in this crisis in a company. They should not be used merely to break the strike, and after the strike is broken, be "put out on the bricks." Such a course would work irreparable loss to the cause of the colored waiters, and would create prejudice far worse than now exists against them. We hope that wherever colored waiters enter employment formerly held by white waiters, they will have it clearly understood that they are to keep their jobs permanently, and not only for the time being. Second: We wish to urge upon the waiters the importance of doing the work as efficiently as the white waiters. This means that the colored waiter who would keep the job must keep his body and clothes clean and attractive, and must study his work just as the white waiter does. He must not use his job merely as a stepping stone to something else, but must, master every detail of it. The colored waiter cannot get situations in first-class hotels and restaurants if he sits up all night or a good part of the night, and then goes to his post sleepy and filthy next morning. He must be just as clean, attractive and wide awake as the white waiter. If he pursue the right policy, the chances are that many of the colored waiters will obtain permanent employment in this city. THE NINTH CAVALRY'S SAVINGS AND HOW TO INVEST THEM. That was a mighty interesting and instructive article in THE AGE of May 30, headed, "One hundred and eleven thousand dollars available for good investment; members of the Ninth Cavalry issue appeal and scheme note," dated at Cheyenne, Wyo. The cavalrymen desire to establish a department store, with many up-to-date money saving features, in the effort to get the Negroes of the country closer together on business lines. The article shows that the members of the Ninth Cavalry are a remarkable body of men, who are living the life of industry, sobriety and thrift that makes for health and respectability, which if practiced by every one thousand Negroes similarly living together in the same environment, would soon effect a radical revolution in the material status of the race and in its moral, intellectual and commercial rating. Or, if there were 100 groups of 1,000 Negroes; or 100,000 of the 10,000-000 in the country, earning no more than $72 per month, who would save an amount in the aggregate to $11,000,000 per annum, or for ten years, less interest, to $110,000,000, or in 100 years to $11,000,000,000—that is eleven thousand million dollars. Add compound interest and the cash value at the end of 100 years would stagger the imagination. It is not improbable that the aggregate savings of the 100,000 Negroes of to-day who are saving, will total that amount, given the 100 years of savings. If 855 soldiers can save $110,000 per annum of the 235,560 they receive, why cannot any group of 1,000 Negroes working together as they do at Allenworth, Cal., Boley, Okla., and Mound Bayou, Miss., do it. If 100 such groups are doing it we are having an annual accumulation of $11,000,000, less interest. Now The Age thinks that the soldiers of the Ninth Cavalry would secure the results they desire, and make more immediately possible a department or other store where needed and it would pay, if they would distribute with ten banks of the 55 the race has; say $10,000, or $100,000 per annum, for 10 years. This would leave a nest egg of $10,000 a year in ready reach of the soldiers, where they now have all of it, for any personal emergency that might arise. The money so distributed in our banks would benefit our farmers, contractors and commercial men in the same way that white banks furnish working capital for white farmers, contractors and commercial men, who always have ample security to protect the loan and are willing to pay a fair rate of interest. What Negro banks need is more money to loan on good security. What our business men need is more money in their business in order to make more capital. They can't get it unless our banks have it. Every year the bankers of New York are called upon to advance enormous sums to the small banks of the South to accommodate white farmers and business men to enable them to gather and move their crops. Our banks cannot depend upon the New York banks to accommodate them in any such effective way; therefore our banks in the South cannot accommodate our farmers and business men so that they can gather and move their crops to the nearest and best markets. Our three banks in Mississippi could handle to advantage in this way $100,000 a year more than is now available. We advise Major Dean to read the story of the business development of Boley, Okla., published in the proceedings of the last likely to experience any subsequent illness the company's average would unlikely be incurred in Negro肚脐. Major Dawn shoul'd also get in touch with Charles Banks of the Negro town of Mound Bayou, Miss. BISHOP THIRKIELD AND HIS GOOD WORK. It is a matter of the gravest concern to the 250,000 Negro members of the white Methodist Episcopal Church that the dominant sentiment of the church has its teeth set as firmly now as twenty years ago against the election of any of its Negro membership to the office of Bishop resident in the United States. Some years ago Dr. Isaiah Benjamin Scott was elected a missionary Bishop and assigned to West Africa. This was a concession even that was made grumpingly. Beyond this the General Conferences of the past twelve years have refused to budge, despite the tremendous efforts put forward by influential preachers and laymen. During the past year the subject has been gone over from every point in THE ACK editorially and by Rev. S. H. Norwood, Dr. Ernest Lyon, and others. There is a strong sentiment in the church that the blacks should separate themselves from the white parent body, and the sentiment is shared, by many whites as well as blacks. The stronger sentiment, however, among Negroes is, at this time, that they should remain with the parent body and hope and labor for the development of a healthier brotherly sentiment in the church. That was the regnant sentiment before the recent meeting of the General Conference at Minneapolis, at which eight new Bishops were elected; what the sentiment now is it would be very interesting, to know, as men don't feel the same coming out of a contest with defeat as they do when going into it with the hope of success. But it is not conceivable that so large a body of Negroes will stand many years longer for the attitude of charitable toleration that the church has taken and maintained toward them. Men want a square deal nowadays, whatever work they cooperate with others in; if they can't get it in one way they will get it in another, but they get it, or keep striving to get it. At the Minneapolis Conference, during the balloting for the election of the eight Bishop, there were times when it looked as if Dr. R. E. Jones, the accomplished editor of The Southwestern Christian Advocate would be elected by accident, as it were; but the "Thou chalt not" sentiment of the dog in the most stable bonded the way When there was but one more Bishop to elect the Negro delegates concentrated upon the best white man, for them, in the situation, as a compromise, and succeeded in having Dr. Wilbur P. Thirkield, president of Howard University, elected. It was the best course for them to pursue under the circumstances, as Dr. Thirkield has been connected with them and works as an educator, thoroughly in sympathy with them, during the past twenty years. He is a man of the broadest Christian scholarship and executive fitness and experience. He has not been a time-server, a selfish self-seeker in the Negro work and uplift; his soul and spirit have been in the work, and that which he has accomplished has not only been great but good as well. He could have accomplished as much and attained to the office of a Bishop if he had labored with his own rather than with "the strangers" in his church denomination. In this respect he is in a class with Bishop John W. Hamilton, whose great heart and intellect were so, long dedicated to the Negro work of education and uplift. The race honors itself when it honors such men. With Gen. O. O. Howard, Gen. Samuel Chapman Armstrong, Dr. J. S. McColloch, Gen. John Eaton, Dr. Hollis B. Frissell, and others. But what Dr. Thirkield gains personally in his election as Bishop, Howard University and the work of Negro education and uplift loses. That he did not expect to be a Bishop, that he loved the Negro work more than personal advancement, was shown when he accepted the presidency of Howard University, which is a congregational school, and thus put himself out of line of promotion in his own church. Such sacrifice of personal interest is sufficiently rare to be emphasized as often as possible, for the inspiration in the example, by those for whose work and uplift it has been made. It is sufficient to say that Dr. Thirkield will leave Howard University a hundred per cent. stronger and better than he found it; it is not too much to hope that his successor will continue to build upon the sure foundation he will inherit and not destroy it in striving to build upon a foundation of his own. Wilbur Wright, the first man to fly in modern times, is dead at the age of forty-five. He accomplished a great deal and lived to enjoy the satisfaction of his accomplishments in aerial navigation. Those who write their names in man's book of remembrance have to toll, late and early. Offenses against the person and life of white men used to be the excuse in the Southern States, the section where the lynchings of blacks for such offences were most common; now the disease has scattered itself all over the country, and the provoking cause has been enlarged from rape to looking at a white woman. At Tyler, Texas, on May 24, Dan Davis was taken from the officers of the law by "800 infuriated citizens" and burned to death in the public square. He is said to have made a written confession of guilt and to have implicated another Negro. But if he did do so that is in no wise a justification of the lynchings for setting aside judicial process for mob vengeance. Two crimes do not make one right. And mob violence, instead of promoting respect for law and due process of law brings law into contempt. Tyler has been the scene of four lynchings in the past few years. To be known as Lyncherstown is not a good advertisement for any place. Criminals should be punished, but they should be punished by law and by due process, and not by the mob and undue process. A NEGRO PRISON ASSOCIATION IS NEEDED. "Under the prison contract labor system," says the Outlook, "the state sells the labor, of its convicts to contractors for a small amount per head per diem, usually forty to sixty cents." What follows? The contractor has no interest in the convict. He aims to get as much work out of him, with the least expense, so that the convict is driven from dawn to sunset at the highest pressure. He is allowed not sufficient food or housing or sleep to do good work for long; but this does not bother the contractor, as the place of the exhausted convict who drops out of the slavery and dies is immediately filled by the state with another convict. The convict system of the Southern states, it has been shown, represents more than anything else the innate brutal character of the people who make and enforce the laws. Like laws, like people. Prison reform is constantly working its good work in all of the states of the Union except the Southern states, where the whole penal system, like that of Russia is aimed primarily to benefit the state and the contractors. The state is responsible for the health, the life and the keep of convicts, people separated from their brethren, and the state should not have power to transfer the responsibility to brutal, greedy contractors, who care nothing for the life and health of the convicts. A negro prison reform association is badly needed, covering all of the Southern states, to protect convicts from the operations of bad laws administered by brutal judges and worked out in horror and death by convict lessees. Such an association would have many good white men and women of the Southern states to sympathize with and assist it in its work, which should aim ultimately to reform entirely the penal system of the Southern states. THE PRESIDENCY OF HOWARD UNIVERSITY. The election of President Thirkield to be a Bishop of the Methodist Episcopal church has precipated a condition in the affairs of Howard University of the greatest moment not only to the institution but to the Negro people. By its position at the National Capital, by the history of its inception and dedication, and by the character of the important work it has done, Howard University has become one of the most important, if not the best and strongest institution for the higher education of Negro youth in the United States. Under the wise management of such an educator as Dr. Thirkield it has been demonstrated in the past six years that Howard University can be made to rank among the best and strongest of the institutions of higher education in the country. It depends upon the man. Everything requiring thought and action does. Having brought it to the highest point of efficiency and usefulness since the presidency of Gen. Howard and the acting presidency of Prof. John M. Langston, President Thirkield has much to be gratified at in relinquishing the work, but it is also due to him and to the institution that his successor shall be qualified in every way to maintain the present standard and see that develop- the University of Iowa is in need of best questionable positions as President of Howard University, but had "no objection to a first-class white man, with knowledge and genuine sympathy for the race." This is the correct and wise position. What Howard University needs is not any specific kind of color of the skin but a specific kind of brains and character and temperament. Its president must also be able to find money where none is planted to keep the work going. In 1906 great pressure was brought to bear to create sentiment that would ultimate in the election of a Negro president of Howard University. The Act did its share of the work and did it thoroughly. Those interested in the matter united upon Dr. Francis J. Grimke as the best fitted man, a member of the Trustee Board, to stand for election. It seemed that his election was assured, but at the psychological moment he declined emphatically to allow his name to be considered. The champions of the movement were not only dismayed but demoralized, as they had ready no other man to substitute for Dr. Grimke who would have stood a ghost of a chance in the voting. The election of Dr. Thirkield was the outcome of it. The best man possible to get' should be selected to succeed Bishop Thirkield as president of Howard University. Our preference would be a Negro. THE POWER OF PAINT, SOAP AND THE BATH TUB. The philosophy of paint, soap and the bath tub is so firmly established among Christian people that it has become a sign of the clean and the unclean among them. The house without paint, the floor without soap and the living body without a bath in a tub full of running water are things offensive everywhere to the eye that sres and the nose that smells. The individual guilty of persistence in such offence is shunned by his neighbors and cannot well respect himself. He must need grope about the community as one in a dream or under a "spell" dazed. Men do not consider him as being entirely sound in the head. This is so far true that Christian people everywhere take a pride in paint, soap and the bath tub and mark the individual who does not and distrusts him accordingly. It is only of very recent years that paint, soap and the bath tub have begun to find any sort of favor in Asia and Africa, that the missionaries of Christianity have introduced among them. In a recent talk, his students on "Signs of Certification," stenographically reported for the Tuskegee Student, Dr. Washington said: In a civilized country one of the signs of civilization in the use of whitewash and paint. There is a good deal of civilization. I grant. In countries and among people where they do not use, to any large extent, either whitewash or paint, but as a rule, the use of whitewash or the use of paint carry with them the idea of civilization. When you go from here, I want every one of you to use your influence in getting paint and whitewash, one or both, used first of all, in your own homes; in the house where you may happen to dwell, whether permanently; or in a temporary capacity, whether another of that house, or as a person bidding that house for the time being. Throughout the South, as one travels, he sees signs of improvement; he sees added to a one-room cavern another room, and in cases, two rooms and a bathroom; he sees three rooms and specifies to see that, in most cases, the builder stops when he gets shingles or the boards in their places without any attempt to go further in the use of either paint or whitewash, and I wish we might in that regard set a better example here. The students have done well in the creation of a grandstand on the ball ground, but I hope you will still go further and set an example in putting some paint or white-wash on that grandstand. It will look better and make us all feel better when you have done that. The first thing I want you to do when you go back home, or when you go into a community this summer to reside, even for a short length of time, is to get everybody in that community into the habit of using paint or white-wash inside, outside, on the fence, on the gate, everywhere, in the other, the home is in keeping everything about the home in good repair. The highly educated person, the highly civilized person does not let repairs go very long without having them attended to. But if the house be painted without and soaped within and the person who lives in it has no bath tub for his own person, the main thing needful will be lacking. Dr. Washington is our philosopher of common sense. He preaches the truth that is always to be found first in the small things we think and do, as they embody the truth that is equally in large things, as the principles upon which the universe was built are said to be embodied in an atom of matter or a microbe. The human house, the house we are born, live and die in, the human body, is the house we should learn first to know and to care for. "The proper study of mankind is man," said Alexander Pope. If he know himself and keep himself properly painted, soaped and bathed, so to speak, he will be in no humor to allow his houses and fences of wood to go unpainted, soaped and bathed. He will have it that all his belongings receive the same treatment that his body does. that the women should be kept open in to examination and waiting rooms for colored going are kept clean, sanitary and attractive. This can often be done by the women's clubs going directly to the railroad officials and insisting that the colored waiting rooms be kept in proper condition. These colored clubs can also perform a much needed service by making complaint directly to the railroad authorities whenever they find coaches provided for colored people that are unclean and unattractive. They should also complain constantly if white people attempt to use the colored coach as a smoking car. We can gain much more than we think by talking directly to the officials when our comfort on railroads is affected: Each club ought to have a committee on railroad stations and railroad trains which should be constantly at work. EDITORIAL NOTES Senator La. Follette secured the 88 delegates of his State in the beginning and has them yet. Where will they go when they get to the Chicago Convention when they can no longer flock by themselves? . Next Tuesday, the 18th, the Republican National Convention will convene in Chicago. The Age expects that the Nerro delegates will stand firm and vote for the candidate they were elected and instructed to vote for. They should not allow themselves to be allowed to foray. They could give the lie to those who believe and insult that they are mercenary time-serving weather vanes. --- Now the Improved Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks of the World of New York are restrained from using the Elk name, insignia and colors of the Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks by the New York Court of Appeals, and are in the same dilemma as the Order in Georgia. Fortunately they are free to adopt the name of any other animal not legally appropriated and incorporated by a white fraternity: The effort made at the General Conference of the African Methodist Episcopal Church, at Charlotte, to elect two additional bishops failed, mainly because the Board of Bishops felt that they were able to do the work and opposed it. The effort was made by the adherents of Dr. S. L. Corruthers of the Association of Religious Clubs of the Star of Zion, who will have to wait four more years before they can "try, try, again!" The church saves fully $5,000 annually, or $20,000, by the action, which could wisely be devoted to the fund for preachers' support and the support of aged and superannuated preachers. "I believe in the higher education of the Negro so that the leaders of the West believe in the higher education of the West. If more Negroes who have the higher education would spend more time and thought upon leading themselves until they had mastered the job, developed and matured their own ideals as high as possible, they would be better able to lead the race. Few Negroes there are between the ages of sixteen and thirty who do not go to smash in the effort to lead others before they have learned to lead. The youngest Negro in any gathering always thinks faster and talks louder and longer than the oldest one. As the race grows older in years and culture it should grow younger in wisdom, the wisdom that knows as much as it does, and no more, with proper appreciation of the wisdom of others. --- What Col. Roosevelt will do in any given situation is always as problematical as a mule's bind leg in repose. For instance, if he is not nominated at Chicago, "Will Col. Roosevelt bolt?" asks the cried mugwump Harper's Weekly. There it defines bolt as a verb, "To swallow hurriedly without proper digestion; to go to seed prematurely;" as a noun, "A pin having a permanent head on end"—a sort of brass tack with the game end up, ready to produce lockjaw when stepped upon suddenly. Now, a bolt is a thing, an instrument, harmless, until a bolter puts life into it; then, very frequently, the bolter is unable to control the bolt and in the end is done to death by it. It is a serious matter to put life into a dead thing like a bolt. Ajax may defy the lightning, but he has to respect the bolt when it strikes and shatters him. Now, then, "Will Col. Roosevelt bolt?" Chairman Harry S. New, who has a firm jaw, resents the insinuation of the Roosevelt people that the National Republican Committee is made up of a lot of political crooks and cowards. He says it is made up of gentlemen and that they cannot be browbeaten. The application for tickets of admission to Convention Hall by the Roosevelt people has been denied by Chairman New on the ground that it is not customary to issue tickets to candidates and their friends. If tickets are given to one candidate and his friends must be given to all candidates and then But the Roosevelt people do not seem to care a rap about customs and procedures. As always, however, where the rights of others are concerned, those who want them or participation in the benefits of them have to consult those who have them. "But, Mr. President, what is a little thing like the constitution between friends?" asked the late Congressman Sullivan of the late President Cleveland. So it goes. Take care of the smallest principle and the largest will be able to take care of itself. The effort so far to galvanize life the Brownstein discharge order or campaign Purposes has not been a brilliant success. The Age has taken no stock in it, because we do not believe in opening old sores for selfish purposes. When the Outlook, however, presumably with Consulting Editor been held these declarations, taken by seven different invasions we object. That does not right in law or equity. The President the Commander-in-Chief or war, is not a trial judge and nor advocate and court martial may designate these. He can be an or for them. A company, boss or regiment cannot be tried and a member of or it must be tried in his name enumerated or convicted in his name citizen cannot be compelled to against himself, neither can be there. There was evidence that the did the shooting, but no one did was convicted of doing it; there none of them was guilty in law, punish the battalion in order to the guilty soldier was illegal, as battalion has no standing as a law in the Constitution and therefore not be punished as a citizen of the military court; the President of the Army and Navy and Congress of the Army and Navy nor civil nor court's martial judge. There and can be no justification for the President Roosevelt in Brownies business.

His investigations have revealed the there is no college in the United where it is impossible for a s supporting young man to comp course; that there are some wh number of students partly high per cent, and that even at expensive universities there are merous opportunities in the scholarships and honor prizes student in need of financial aid Mr. Wilson tells of a colorful Northwestern University technical school where he courses in any college, who for years acted as porter on the Twelfth Century Limited between the Cleveland and Cleveland. He would then go on to work at 7:30 the next morning, attend all that day and the next morning go out again on the 21st train to third afternoon. He earned a month and supported an artist during his time in college.

Your correspondent has it that the white members of the trustee board stand ready to vote for and elect a colored man as president if the colored members of the board have sufficient confidence and pride in their own race to propose a man for the place. If the colored members of the board of trustees fall to propose or stand for a colored man for the place the race will be nearly disappeared; the students will have had a crime in their ambitions to succeed, and the present faculty, each and every member, must necessarily have his suit stopped for the reason that the student not to elect a colored man, in the assumption it is not yet time, will write "fails" for their hopes and additions, and will place at the entrance to the university grounds, figuratively, the sign, "All who enter here instructors and professors must not use for promotion." Dominant Negro Educators Being Speaker of. The colored men most prominently among of in connection with the propriety of Howard are Prof. Kelly Miller, dean of the college of arts and science at Howard; Prof. L. R. Moore, dean of the Teachers' College, and Geo. W. Cook, secretary of the institution. Prof. Miller enjoys the most reputation among almost a household word one end of the country to the other. All three are splendidly equipped though many argue that Prof. Kelly Miller in every respect being the most intelligent in scholarship, and being of relatively, the highest college of the institution, because of his national reputation, and because the institution is a national institution, is the most intelligent in scholarship and to the honor. Each candidate, never, has his supporters, who claim to write to be the most available. Other names suggested, but who are no sense active candidates, are Prof. R. Winght Jr., Wm. H. Lewis, assistant Attorney General, Judge R. H. Duloux, and DuLoux. If a colored man is seated, and his selection will rest with the colored members of the board, it believed the honor will come to one of the three candidates who are now, have been, connected with the Inquiry, and Moore or Gw. W. Cook, Kelly Miller to all odds the favorite. A prominent alumnus of Howard, I conversation with your correspondent, and that if the trustees failed this time, they would be such a blow to the members of the faculty of Howard that many them would not only accept offers to to other colleges, but would invite and that they would be justified so to do, and that the failure to select a colored president would mean a sad reduction, instead of increase, in the number of students that would enter the university, so that no educational institution right to hope for an increase in the student body when its trustee board, effect, declares that no graduate of the institution can hope to succeed, in time, to the presidency because he is colored. Great Interest in Selection of Presidency The greatest possible interest, all through the country, is being manified by colored men and women, and by prospective students. In the institution of the Hon. John H. White, white men have been suggested but not one of them has, in any particular, measured up to the colored spoken of for the place, and loyal man cannot see why some small institutions cannot be confined to some one church or whose study of sociology has given a limited colored acquaintance who have a national reputation, and whose invites honor or admiration at hands of his own race. The trustee board will meet June 1 to elect the new president. The committee appointed to look out for and report issues of Dr. John R.

HAYNES following this preparation he spent one year at the Agricultural and Mechanical College Normal, Ala. five semester periods, from which he received the B.A. degree, from which he received the A.M. degree in 1904. From September, 1903, to June, 1908, Mr. Haynes was traveling secretary of the Young Men's Christian Committee of the Young Men's Christian Committee of the Negro educational institutions and many cities and rural districts of the South. In this capacity he had the opportunity to observe both rural and urban conditions and to compare the efforts made by the Negro educational institutions in each section and to compare the results achieved by such efforts. Mr. Haynes gave special attention to the concentration of Negroes in cities in the United States, to many students of the opportunity to study problems leaplings therefrom. In studying at the New York School of Philanthropy in connection with his work at Columbia University, he made an intensive effort to migrate to cities with special attention to conditions and conditions in New York City, with the result that his mind was fired with inspiration and the desire to work out plans for ameliorating the conditions in these cities, in variably the concentration and subsequent segregation of Negroes in cities.

READ THE WORDS OF OTHERS I cannot begin to tell you all the benefits I have received since the arrival of the two specimens of Loadstone you sent me. For many years I was convinced that no person lived who was more unfortunate than myself. Loss in business: death of loved ones and other troubles too numerous to mention; were driving me to a state of frenzy. A friend told me to write you for information regarding the system of two Loadstone and their power. 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 at liberty to use this letter as reference, for I believe it is my duty to let the world know of the wonderful change in my life, that I believe was brought about through the power and influence of two Loadstone.

In doing so they accepted fact the separation of the races in society, and are determined to make that element as small a barrier as possible. Too much cannot be said of this new movement in this city to bring together for reasons that group of persons, who, by their actions, must set the standards for the future educational and social life of the Negro of this state.

HART AND JOHNSON'S ACT JUNETIME is responsible for a new act, which, having been tenderly kissed by the friendly sunrays of early summer, has ripened into a tempting morsel for those who possess a craving for vaudeville. The act to which I refer is that of Hart and Johnson, who enjoyed quite an auspicious New York debut at the Fifth Avenue Theatre last week. A new act which is in such high favor with the management of a theatre that a new sum is expended during the week for power in advertising it in electric lights attracts more than ordinary attention. The interest is even greater when it is a colored act, and when the names of the team are put in the big electric sign with others, playing no small part in illuminating Broadway. Within the past two years the Fifth Avenue Theatre has been closely identified with important events affecting the colored vandevillian. It was at this house that "Bob" Cole broke down men- M. tally just after Cole and Johnson had closed their engagement on a Sunday evening. About a year ago Aida Overton Walker and her company enjoyed a successful opening at the Fifth Avenue Theatre, and several months ago Avery and Hart were last seen in vaudeville together at the Proctor house. Last week Dame Fortune smiled on the new combination, which is appearing in what is probably the most elaborate colored act ever presented in vaudeville. In producing the sketch, which is entitled the "Entertainers," Hart and Johnson have brought together both brain and money—a winning combination. Three settings are used, together with a motion picture machine which they carry. The costumes and scenery used in the third name are especially lavish, the atmosphere being strictly Oriental. Hart and Johnson are principals in several funny scenes. Charlie Hart being the chief fun-maker. Although they are guilty of occasioning merriment in the first scene, it is in the second scene THE MISSING MAN J. ROSAMOND JOHNSON that the best comedy work is done; in fact, several comedy situations are worked up by the two quite cleverly. Charlie Hart sings two songs, but "Beans, Beans, Beans," he puts over along original lines instead of imitating as he does in the first number. Probably it is due to obtuseness on my part, but I never have been able to understand why Charlie Hart has thought it necessary to imitate, in view of the fact that he is original. J. Rosamond Johnson demonstrates his efficiency as a piano player on his favorite Steinway, and sings a catchy number entitled "If You'll Be My Eve I'll Build an Eden for You." J. Rosamond is wearing some swell togs which dazzle the eye from a sartorial standpoint. The act is now running twenty-seven minutes, which is entirely too long, and the finish could be made stronger. The skirt is new and is somewhat uneven in spots, but a month's steady work should make it one of the most entertaining acts on the big time. During this theatrical era there are but few colored acts on the big time. At MANHATTAN CASINO Dance Music by Band of 50 Pieces Why such adverse conditions exist is a mooted question. The promising New York opening of Hart and Johnson, however, has demonstrated that in order to attract favorable attention on the two-a-day circuit nowadays it is necessary that there be some consistency to the plot of the sketch, and that the scenery used and costumes worn must be in harmony with the atmosphere. Colored acts on the "going to the ball" type, which are supposed to be well costumed, but which usually find the female member dressed in a short skirt, and the clothes of the man as equally incongruous, cannot expect to demand the serious consideration of the managers and the theatregoers of today. Times have changed, and to succeed in vaudeville one must be a student. I take great pleasure in recommending the Hart and Johnson act for inspection by those who sincerely believe they have a "great" act, but who daily lament that they cannot understand why the managers and the public are unable to think as they do.

The foundation of the W-H-C Theatre in W. 138th street is almost completed and extensive preparations are being made for the laying of the corner stone sometime in July. The directors of the Johnson Amusement Company are planning to make it a gala occasion, and the leading fraterna societies will be asked to participate. Addresses will be delivered by well-known speakers. From present indications the out-of-town attendance to the annual frolic and summer night's dance of The Frogs, which will be given Thursday evening, June 27. will be even larger than on previous years. Heretofore this widely-known organization has given its frolics on Monday evenings, but this year Thursday was selected as the day of days in order to allow visitors to spend the week-end in New York. It is thought that the announcement that the dance will be held on a Thursday is largely responsible for the probable large outpouring of non-residents. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10. 11. 12. 13. 14. 15. 16. 17. 18. 19. 20. 21. 22. 23. 24. 25. 26. 27. 28. 29. 30. 31. 32. 33. 34. 35. 36. 37. 38. 39. 40. 41. 42. 43. 44. 45. 46. 47. 48. 49. 50. 51. 52. 53. 54. 55. 56. 57. 58. 59. 60. 61. 62. 63. 64. 65. 66. 67. 68. 69. 70. 71. 72. 73. 74. 75. 76. 77. 78. 79. 80. 81. 82. 83. 84. 85. 86. 87. 88. 89. 90. 91. 92. 93. 94. 95. 96. 97. 98. 99. 100.

A prize contest of the best musical compositions—vocal or instrumental—will be conducted under the Music School Settlement for Colored People. The following open letter from David Mannes, director of the Music School Settlement, explains itself: To the Negro Musicians of America: That the Negroes of this country have a generous offering in musical expression to make to the future of our national music is a fact that no one to-day can dispute. The trained musician, and the musical layman realizes this. As the folklore of the older nations has been the foundation of their great art-expression, so must the Negro music serve to this country the same high purpose. All great composers have drawn inspiration from the song of the people. The crisis in the life of our Union was fought out for the Negro; but emancipation is not complete until the soul-language music shall have free expression in all people and Know the encouragement of equal culture. Our American composers have not a native musical expression but have followed European models and by reason of imitation have lacked the sincerity that such pre-eminently must express. Now, then, to the Negro comes a great opportunity. His rythmic individuality, his simple harmonic structure—basic qualities in living FOR SERVICE FOR THE GOVERNMENT WESTERN MAWNES May 24, 1911 GIRL WINS FELLOWSHIP Miss Helen E. Hagan, a colored girl of New-Haven, Conn., was awarded the Samuel Simons Sanford Fellowship at the annual concert of the Yale Music School, recently held. The fellowship provides for a two-years' study abroad. The fellowship was awarded for the best original composition. For three consecutive years Miss Hagan has won scholarships at the Yale Music School. Last year she was given the Lockwood scholarship, and the year previous was awarded a scholarship by a friend of the school. Miss Hagan, who is the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. John A. Hagan, 83 Whalley avenue, finished her course at the Yale Music School this spring and was awarded the degree of Bachelor of Music. She will take advantage of the Sanford fellowship and will study concert work abroad for two years. THE DRAMATIC CRITIC The following is a dissertation on "The Dramatic Critic," by James Metcalf, the able writer on Life: The dramatic critic gets more kicks than hapence. He's no target for laurel wreaths. It has to be so. It's in the nature of things. If he's on the level, he is working for a big public that is not much intolerant except to the extent of saying that he is a good critic if he happens to agree with the general verdict and that he's a poor critic if he happens to differ with the opinion of the person who happens to be talking. That public for whose interests he is working, not so much in a positive way as in the negative position of defending it from the entirely commercial interests of the theatrical business, doesn't far out of its way to strengthen the hand of the critic. It takes his work for granted and is guided or not guided by him; mostly not. The only way that a critic finds out that he is alive is when he gets a real heart-to-heart talk from a disinterested person, such as a member of the profession, which is his principal subject of discussion. The kind of information he gets about himself from that source is not likely to be dattering. The actor will be compelled to himself as entirely matter of course and to be expected. He has a short memory for their source, if not for the compliments themselves. But he never forgets the statement which does not accord with his own estimate of himself, nor does he forget its author. Usually it rankles, but sometimes it finds indignant expression in the spoken or written word. IN THE WORLD OF SPORT DREW TO REPRESENT AMERICA. RIDAY, when over one hundred and fifty of America's greatest and nity of America's greatest athletes sail for Sweden on the Finland to participate in the Olympic games at Stockholm there will be in this representative aggregation a young athlete who is the talk of the athletic world, and who is looked upon to win honors for this country. He is Howard P. Drew, the crack colored runner of the Springfield, Mass. High School. Drew has been picked to represent America in two big events in the Olympic games—the 100 meter flat race and the 220 meter flat race. It is the belief of those who saw the colored runner in the big athletic meet in the Harvard Stadium Saturday that he will bring back to America the medal for being the fastest runner at 100 meters flat. The meet held Saturday, characterized as the greatest ever pulled off in this country, was to determine the places on the American Olympic team, and it was full of surprises. However, the biggest surprise of the afternoon was when Drew equalled the Olympic record at 100 meters flat and defeated Ralph C. Craig, the former intercollegiate champion spinner, of Detroit, Mich. The failure of Craig to win the 100 meters has been the chief topic discussed by experts since Saturday's meet, as no one figured that the Springfield schoolboy had a ghost of a show against the well-known Michigan runner. Drew is regarded as one of the strongest men the American team will carry to Stockholm. Aside from being considered formidable at 100 and 200 meters, the members of the executive committee of the Olympic games believe that Drew is dangerous at 70 meters; in fact, they have declared that Craig is no match for Drew at this distance. Poles Quits Lincoln and Joins Royals. There has been plenty to talk about by baseball fans in Harlem within the past week, and many rumors are going the rounds as to what is likely to happen in the near future. The run in between Capt. Lloyd and Poles in Sunday's game, which resulted in Poles' jumping the Lincoln Giants and joining the Royal Giants, has occasioned much discussion. It is reported that Redding may soon be seen on the Royal Giants, although both Manager Connor and the big pitcher refuse to discuss the subject. Poles joined the Royal Giants this week at Detroit. In Sunday's game between the Lincoln Giants and the New London team Poles and Capt. Lloyd became embroiled in an argument. Poles quit the team, and a few hours later made overtures to Manager Connor to become a member of the Royal Giants. An agreement was reached, and the speedy fielder was sent to join the Royals. INCORPORATED have come to threat to the primary question and he will question a member of the Lincoln Giants. The Royal Giants will return to New York about June 25, after an extensive trip through the South and West. The team has not been seen in New York this season, and Manager Connor predicts that the Royals will make it hard for the Lincoln Giants and other colored teams. The team is now captained by "Home Run" Johnson, who is doing his best to put on the field as strong an aggregation as he had a couple of years ago. Among the new players is Webster, who is said to be a good backstop, a wicked batter and very speedy on bases. The team is short on pitchers, Crawford and two others having been released in Chicago. It is said that Manager Connor is still dickering to bring Pitcher Ball to New York. Ball is at present on the St. Louis Giants. "Pop" Andrews is doing most of the pitching for the Harlem nine. In the line-up of the Royals are: Webster, catcher; Earl, left field; Poles, center field; Johnson, second base; Robinson, first base; Handy, short stop; Kindle, third base; Andrews, pitcher. H. W. Schlicter, owner of the Philadelphia Giants, was in Washington a few days ago and had a lengthy conversation with R. H. Jones, manager of the Washington Giants, relative to signing several players. It is rumored that Ham, the crack catcher of the Washington Giants, will be sent to the Quaker City team, along with several other good players. Sol White, who for many years successfully managed the Philadelphia Giants, is again with the team. Lincoln, 10: New London, 3. The New London team came to New York Sunday with a big string of victories to its credit, but upon returning to Connecticut after the game with the Lincoln Giants its reputation was somewhat dented. The Lincoln continue to win games, defeating New London 10 to 3. The score: **LINCOLN GIANTS!** **NEW LONDON.** Poles, lf. 1 11 0 0 c. r. b. o. s. c.

Reyala Win in Detroit At Detroit Sunday the Royal Giants defeated the S. and S. team of that city in a hard-hitting game, 12 to 6. Valliere's offerings did not seem to have anything on them that was in the least mysterious to "Home Run" Johnson and his players, who proceeded to bang out 13 safe knocks, two of which were good for extra base hits. Not one of the visiting team went hitless, and they way they ran the bases was enough to give any catcher the fidgets. At least one run was made by each player on the Royal club and six stolen bases were credited to them. The score: S. & S. 8. ROYAL GIANTS ab. b. 2. b. 2. Webr. c. 0. b. o. a. Marlin. sb. b. 2.

This Congress has been attended by some of the most noted men and women of the race from all sections of the country, who demonstrated a deep interest in the development of the race through the Sunday School and many advanced ideas were handed out by experts in the work. Wednesday morning a special train, known as the official special, composed of Fulham cars, day coaches, dining and baggage cars, reached the institute at 10 o'clock. It was met by a committee of teachers and students, headed by Dr. Booher T. Washington. Under the auspice of Tuskegee band they matched the chapel, where the meeting was opened by the Rev. Dr. C. H. Clark of Nashville, Tennessee, chairman. "Oward Christian Soldier" was the opening hymn, led by a chorus of one hundred voices under the direction of Prof. N. H. Pius, of Nashville, Teen. The Rev. C. D. Douglass, D.D., of Cincinnati, Ohio, made the opening prayer and the Rev. J. D. Haynes, of Nashville, read the scripture lesson. This was followed by a short address by Chairman Clark, who outlined the work of the week. Dr. R. H. Boyd, secretary of the National Baptist Publishing Board, and founder of the Congress, was presented and made a short talk. He declares that while he is not a college graduate himself he has college graduates to do his work. The officers of the Congress are the Rev. C. H. Clark, D. D., chairman; J. P. Robinson, D. D., Little Rock, vicechairman; Henry Allen Boyd, Nashville, Tenn., secretary; R. B. Hudson, A. M., Selma, Ala., recording secretary; J. M. Easterly, Chattanooga, Tenn., assistant secretary; R. H. Boyd, director; N. H. Pius, D. D., orchestra; Prof. C. W. Boyd, Charleston, W. Va., Metoka director. Booker T. Washington Speaks. Dr. Booker T. Washington made the principal address of the session, who said some plain and helpful things to the ministers present and the delegates to the Congress. Among other things, Dr. Washington said: "No single class of individuals exert more influence for good or evil among the masses of Negro people through the United States than is true of the Negro ministers. Each minister here has resting upon him a tremendous responsibility. What can this body do in order to save and strengthen the millions of our people in this country, 82 per cent, of whom live in the country districts and small villages. In the rural districts the Negro, all things considered, is at his best: in body, mind and soul. In the city he is usually at his worst. Plainly one of the duties of your church is to help to keep the Negro, where he has the best chance. In a marked degree the Negro is a social being. He, more largely than is true of any other race, uses his churches as the rallying point for his social life. Whether it is meeting relating to farming business, education politics, secret societies or religion, the Negro church house is used. "In dealing with the millions of Negroes, let us in America learn a lesson from what has taken place in England where agriculture and the farm have been neglected by church and state, with the result that the cities are filled with millions of unfortunate mistis who are in the gutters instead of being on the soil and out in the free; bracing air where God meant that man should live. "Mine is not a selfish plea to the church. I want to see the Negro saved for his own sake, and I want to see the Negro saved in order that the white race which surrounds him may be saved. All history teaches that wherever the white race, has been surrounded by a weaker race and a neglected race of any color, that there the white man had yielded to the temptation to degrade and weaken himself because of injustice perpetrated upon the weaker race." The Rev. W. H. Moses, D. D., of Knoxville, Tenn., responded to the address of Dr. Booker T. Washington, telling of the work done at Tukegee and, by the Negro throughout the country. Other addresses during the session were delivered by Miss E. Victoria Brown, of Greenville, S. C.; Miss Utica Murrell, Savannah, Ga.; L. N. Ingraham, Brewton, Ala.; T. Jonea, Logtown, Miss.; Miss Addie Jackson, Livingston, Ala.; C. W. Boyd, Charleston, W. Va.; Miss Savannah Thomas, Montgomery, Ala.; Dr. Henry H. Meyers, of New York, and Dr. R. H. Bowling, of Norfolk, Va. Dr. E. C. Morris, president of the National Baptist Convention, sent greetings. The Rev. Dr. A. J. Stokes, of Montgomery, treasurer of the National Baptist Convention, and S. W. Bacote, statistician of the same convention, delivered addresses. TOLEDO, O. Regular Correspondence of THE AOM.

This is a very strong organization, embracing as it does all of the practical working force of any average hotel or cafe: namely, cooks, waiters, bartenders and waitresses. Now, it seems to me that if we should analgamate with these people, the most serious obstacle would be removed—that of their opposition as well as competition. I have given this subject much thought in the past, and as long as ten years ago I was severely criticised by the fellow workers of my race that they were fast losing their prestige and they themselves were as much to blame by their inattention to business, their failure to keep abreast of the improvements in service that are being demanded by the public, and by their general deficiency and untidy habits. I declared then that in a few years, we would have employment in only second-class places, and maybe not all of them. They laughed at me and said I was crazy. Since that time there have been erected in Minneapolis six first-class hotels, and we stood by with mouths agape as one by one, upon their completion, they were manned by white crews. Volumes could be written upon this subject of the whys and the wherefores, but I would rather discuss some practical method of organization and improvement of our service as well as working conditions. And I can probably heat do so by giving a synopsis of a little of our local history here. Some time ago I interested enough more of my fellow workers to form a union. We did so, starting with fifteen. One house in which some of us are employed is unionized throughout—cooks, bartenders, waiters and waitresses. Out of this little handful of men have come some truly wonderful changes. We have our own meeting hall where we have weekly meetings, and once every month a general discussion of things pertaining to the good of the service.

But the two things that have impressed me most are the harmony that exists between the different working departments and the change in working conditions. And so that makes me strong for organization. But I don't believe we can hope for anything by going alone. We must join hands with the white man who is working in our same crafts, and together we can become a powerful force—alone we can never do much. The educational part of our little local and the improvements it has brought about for us in our work and general conduct, have been well worth the time and trouble it cost to bring us into existence. And so, if the young man in Kansas City, who are fathering this other movement, will give this their earnest and honest thought, they will see that an affiliation with this International would be far the more effective.

Klink-no-more Think about it — a preparation that all you have to do is apply it on the hair and with a little combing the hair becomes straight. Klink-no-more last from six to eight months. Water not nothing else will make it kink again after it has been straightened. Klink-no-more is a worker. No somebody does it its work in the house that one owns own eyes. It works like magic, and is unlike because there is not another preparation in the world like it. We offer a range of Klink-no-more hair the Klink-no-more will not straighten. Klash-no-more is a vegetable company; it is its perfect harmless and will not injure hair or skin. It is safe to eat; positively removes dandruff; promotes a luxurious growth of healthy hair and keeps it soft and glossy. Recommend Klash-no-more to all those who are prone to do all that is required for it or money refunded. We will send to anyone on the receipt of $1.60 a regular box of Klash-no-more, enough to straighten from hair to skin. We will send registered letter, postal money order or express money order.
