FOR DISFRANCINSEMENT
Urges Democrats to Support

TALK HURTS THE PARTY
Conservatives View Radical Utterances
of Newlands with Alarm as it is Aller-
ing Colored Vote.
Experience having democratic race with which amalgamatic the folly of investing an infundable with the right of rage, and the folly of admitting our shores peoples differing color, with whom amalgamatic undesirable, we declare that Constitution should be so ame as to confine the right of suff in the future to people of the race, and we favor a law proing the immigration to this try of all peoples either than of the white race, except temporary purposes of educ travel, or commerce.
Colored Democrats throughout the country are discussing with much disgust the announcement of Senator Newlands of Nevada that he intends to urge the adoption of a "white plank" in the Democratic platform at Baltimore, which will propose a constitutional amendment to disfranchise the Negro and bar the yellow races from entry to the United States except for temporary purposes.
His outspoken intentions have not only aroused the ire of the Negro Democrats, but also white Democrats who have been making a determined bid for Negro votes. Within the past year there has been more of a disposition to cater to the colored voters with a view to enlisting their support at the polls in November than at any time in the history of the Democratic party.
Colored members of Tammany Hall, who are making great arrangements to go so the Democratic Convention with the "white braves," and who have been optimistic regarding the possibility of the Democratic nominee for the President securing quite a percentage of the Negro vote in the various doubtful States, are very much alarmed over Senator Newland's announcement, and have informed the Tammany leaders that such talk is alienating from the Democratic party colored voters who are in a susceptible mood.
Trying to Suppress Newlands.
The conservative Democrats are working assiduously to prevent Senator Newlands from seeking to insert a race issue plank in the Democratic platform, but he insists that he will be able to secure the assistance of radicals and will ultimately gain his point. Some believe that the Nevada Senator, knowing how easy it is to get into the limelight by raising the anti-Negro issue, has done so with a view to getting some publicity.
"Japan cannot reasonably take exception to the proposed plann," said the Senator. "because there is nothing invidious in it as applied to people of that country yet it would accomplish everything in which the Pacific Coast contends in that respect. At the same time it will do away with the anomalous condition in the South, where the Negroes are disfranchised in spite of the law. discrimination which has come to be endowed in the Northern States, spent in Chicago where both sides."
"The question is emphasized by the are raising after the Negro delegates and why they are likely to hold the balance of power. I believe this should be a white man's country, and that we should proudly express our determination that it shall be. The situation in the North which now tends to bring the House disrepute, would be legalized in the country would honestly trust it believes in."

NOTED - COOK DEAD
Mrs. Emeline Jones, Original Maker of Bursage Chips, Expires After Limping Illinois—Caterer Gross Tells of New Services of Cook Was Sought by Presidents.
In the death of Mrs. Emeline Jones, who died at her residence, 314 W. Fifty-second street, June 9, after an illness of several months' duration, the country loses a cook widely known for her culinary art, and whose services were greatly sought after by Presidents of the United States and wealthy citizens. She, enjoyed the distinction of first bringing Saratoga chips to the attention of the public.
Mrs. Jones attracted attention because of her appetizing terrapin stews, croquettes and mince pies. Both President Cleveland and President Arthur, after having eaten food prepared by this celebrated cook, sought to engage her services as head cook at the White House, but to no purpose.
The funeral of the deceased was held Thursday, June 13, from the Church of St. Benedict the Moor, the Rev. Father O'Keefe officiating.
In speaking of Mrs. Emeline Jones as a famous cook and caterer, W. E. Gross, one of New York's oldest caterers, comments as follows:
"One of the best female cooks of New York City passed away Sunday, June 9, 1912, and funeral services were held at St. Benedict's Church in West 53d street on Thursday morning. The Rev. Father O'Keefe celebrated a solemn requiem Mass for the repose of her soul. Mrs. Jones came from Baltimore. Md. about forty years ago. A very little is known of her early life, but she soon launched out as a professional cook, succeeding Mrs. Murray, and in a few years became famous among the wealthy families of this city as President of the Public Waiters of New York, when I became acquainted with her. She was of a cheerful and sunny disposition and endeared herself to all who came in contact with her. Many of the caterers of those days sought her services, and the demands upon her were so great that she immediately procured and taught assistants to help fill her orders. One of her apt pupils, Mrs. Fannie C. Jarvis, gives her credit for the skill she acquired and is to-day her worthy successor.
"Mrs. Jones was the originator of the Saratoga chips, which became a staple article of food at the various business resorts. The late President Arthur, through Aleck Powell, sought her services to cook at the White House at a large salary, but she declined the offer. John Chamberlain secured her services at a large salary at his club houses in New York, and at Point Comfort, Virginia. The steward of John Daly, Nowell Newman, later succeeded in giving her a position at John Daly's house at Long Branch. Mrs. Jones was famous for her terrapin stew, croquettes and mince pies.
Engaged by Big Baker.
"Wall, the baker of Sixth avenue, in the winter season engaged the services of Mrs. Jones to make his mince pies and rolls. At that time cooks had to make rolls and bread for their parties and dinners. Most of the wealthy families procured their pies and rolls from Wall, who kept a bakery down town.
"Mrs. Jones' assistants were kept busy filling orders. Colored cooks and caterers did most of the work in those times, and she took delight in making successful such caterers as the Van Dykes, John Lucas, Hiram Thomas, Nathaniel Johnson, Moses Lewis, Horatio Butler, Wm. Smith, James W. Mars, T. McCarthy, Wm. Heydiger, John Brown, Vernon C. Murray, myself and many others. Most of the colored cooks came from Baltimore and Philadelphia and settled in New York.
"A prominent wealthy merchant of this city gave me an order to procure a cook to serve a dinner at his home, and to get the best, as he wished to entertain the late President Cleveland and his wife. Money was no object. I engaged Mrs. Jones. She served President Cleveland so well that he offered her a large salary to cook for him, but she had to refuse the offer. There was a tradition at that time before the advent of the French and Italian cooks that colored cooks were the best.
"Mrs. Jones always received her orders carte blanche, and made up her menus."
"Cooking is a fine art, and if many of our young women of today were to take it up we would have many more than we have and not depend upon delicatessen stores. Mrs. Jones lately suffered so that she could only take orders and send out assistants. I will miss her greatly.
"She leaves. I learn, a sister and a nephew. The French Cooks' Society faithfully cared for her during her illness, and had charge of her remains for burial."

Decision in Georgia Knights of Pythias. Case Prompts Dilem No Act-Opposition of Supreme Court in Pythias Case.
In view of the decision rendered by the United States Supreme Court last week in favor of the colored Knights of Pythias of Georgia, the New York State branch of the Improved Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks of the World has decided to carry its case to the highest court in the land. Webster & Price, counsel for the Negro Elks, are busily engaged preparing appeal papers, which will be taken to the United States Supreme Court on a writ of error.
The conclusion to appeal the adverse decision of the New York Court of Appeals to the United States Supreme Court was reached Wednesday evening. June 12, when, in response to a call issued by the Past Exalted Ruler of the Independent Benevolent Protective Or-
COUNSELLOR D. MACON WEBSTER
der of Elks of the World of the State of New York, a meeting was held at the lodge rooms of Manhattan Lodge, East 126th street, at which six of the ten lodges of the State of New York were represented.
The meeting was called to order by Past Exalted Ruler J. H. Anderson in the absence of the Past Grand Exalted Ruler J Frank Wheaton. Past Exalted Ruler D. W. Parker, of Manhattan Lodge, was elected secretary. They were made permanent officers of the temporary organization, which was entered into after the delegates had been made.
Motion of Counsellor' Macon Freely Discussed.
The first business before the conference was the motion put by Past Exalted Ruler, Counsellor D. Macon Webster, as to whether the name of the lodge should be changed or an appeal should be taken to the Supreme Court of the United States. This motion was discussed at great length by the conference and entered to a vote when decided unanimously in favor of taking an appeal to the Supreme Court of the United States. The conference was composed of not only past exalted rulers, but other members of the order, and all expressed themselves that there was but one position to take and that was to fight the case to the bitter end—winner lose.
The delegates, in their discussion recognized two very vital points: First, that should the case be permitted to rest as it is in the State of New York it would open the door for the B. P. O. E. to make an attack on the L. B. P. O. E. of W. in every State in the Union where lodges have been set apart and would necessitate a continuous line of defence from Maine to California, involving an expense which the lodge is not prepared to meet.
The second point, which was made was that their being such a strong love for the word Eik, few lodges outside of the State of New York where no action has been taken to prevent the issue of the name being used in their dugout.

COUNSELLOR A PRICE
The conference adjourned subject to the call of the temporary chairman, awaiting the action of the various lodges on the recommendation of the conference committee. In the meantime each member when spoken to expressed himself in no uncertain terms as to what the result of the recommendation would be and it is a foregoing conclusion that the Elks' case will be carried to the Supreme Court of the United States.
It is believed that a probe convention will be called by the officers of the Grand Lodge before the grand convention is held in Dayton to take decided steps on the recommendation of the conference meeting in New York.
Counsellor D. Macon Webster when seen by a representative of The Act, expressed his belief that the order would decide to proceed, at once with the appeal basing his belief in what had been said to him by the most influential members in New York as well as the attitude of some of the officers of the Grand Lodge.
United States Supreme Court's Decision.
The decision of the United States Supreme Court in the Georgia Knights of Pythias case follows in part:
A secret fraternal and benevolent order known as the Knights of Pythias was organized as a voluntary association in Washington, District of Columbia, in 1864. Pursuant to the authority conferred by an act of Congress approved March 5, 1870, authorizing the formation of corporations in the District of Columbia, the persons composing the Supreme Lodge, the governing body of the order, became incorporated as the Supreme Lodge, Knights of Pythias, by filing in the proper office the certificate required by the act. Among other things, required to be stated in the certificate was the name or title by which the society was to be known, its associates and successors, "shall be a body politic and corporate, by the name stated in such certificate;
The life of the corporation thus created, it would seem, expired by limitation in 1890. On June 29, 1894, however, by a special act of Congress, the Supreme Lodge was again made a corporation of the District of Columbia by the name of the Supreme Lodge, Knights of Pythias, and still exists as such. Membership in the order is restricted to white males. In addition to a Grand Lodge and subordinate Lodge in each State to which it has assigned, the condition of insurance branch known the Uniform Rank. The Grand Lodge of Georgia was instituted by the Supreme Lodge on March 20, 1871.
An order of Knights of Pythias of the same general nature as that above described, consisting of members of the colored race, was established in Mississippi on March 26, 1889. It became a corporation of the District of Columbia on or about October 10, 1889, by virtue of the general incorporation act of Congress of May 5, 1889, already authorized under the law and author of "The Supreme Lodge Knights of Pythias, North and South America, Europe, Asia and Africa." The order was introduced into Georgia in June, 1886, and a Grand Lodge was instituted in that State by the Supreme Lodge on December 15, 1890. The corporation of October 10, 1899, was reincorporated December 14, 1903, under the general law of May 5, 1870, by the name of "Knights of Pythias of North America, South America, Europe, Asia, and Africa," and incorporation, on January 15, 1905, the Supreme Lodge issued a new charter to the Grand Lodge of Georgia.
The Supreme Lodge of Knights of Pythias which as heretofore stated was finally incorporated in 1854 by a special act of Congress, the Grand Lodge of Georgia, which was subject to its jurisdiction, and the officers of such Grand Lodge were parties complainant in an amended petition in this litigation commenced in the Superior Court of Fulton County, Georgia. The defendants were the officers of the Grand Lodge in Georgia of the other body, who had made application to the court in which this suit was commenced to be incorporated as a domestic corporation of Georgia under the name and style of The Grand Lodge Knights of Pythias of North America, North America, Europe, Asia and Australia, jurisdiction of Georgia. The petition filed in the case pointed the organization of the order of the plaintiffs substantially as heretofore stated, and the defendants were added to the whole appellation attempting to be admitted to the order of the plaintiffs.

CHICAGO, ILL., June 19.—Within the past week the daily press of this country has used many tubs of ink telling of the susceptibility of the Southern Negro delegates to pecuniary influences, but at this writing (Wednesday) THE ACE representative has been unable to learn of a single case in which a Negro delegate has flopped for money considerations.
The attempt to put the colored delegates to the big Republican Convention now being held in the Windy City in a bad light before the world has aroused their wrath, as the majority of Negroes who have a vote in the convention are men of the highest character. There are capitalists, merchants, contractors, ministers, doctors, lawyers and planters in the list, and their financial status is better than hundreds of white delegates in attendance.
That the colored delegates are a balance of power at this memorable convention is admitted by all, but the Negroes contend that they have been made the target of much unfair criticism by unfriendly papers because of the attitude assumed by some of the campaign managers that they could be induced to violate instructions for money. They assert that had not the campaign managers picked them out to do the "dirty work" there would not have been any talk of colored delegates from the South being regarded with distrust.
And yet, despite all that has been said, no evidence has been produced showing that a single colored delegate has sold his vote and disregarded instructions. However, many attempt were made to corrupt Negroes. The vote at Tuesday's session for temporary chairman proved the loyalty of colored men to their original candidates. With but one notable exception, the colored delegates Tuesday instructed to support President Taft, did so, which is more than can be said of some white Southern delegates, as well as delegates from New York and Wisconsin, whose flopping stunts have occasioned no little comment.
Many white delegates are disgusted with the attempt of such anti-Negro jappers as the New York Times to besmirch the character of the colored delegates. One of the most outspoken is Former Gov. William Pitt Kellogg of Louisiana, who issued the following statement:
"In my opinion colored delegates cannot be bought. When I was Governor they always stood by their pledges to me. In 1876 four colored men were Electors. Fortunes were offered to them to change their votes; to one of them alone was offered $100,000 for his vote. If one had yielded Tilden would have been President."
The claim made by Tilden Age in last week's issue that the Southern colored delegates instructed for Taft were loyal to the President was substantiated Tuesday when the vote for temporary chairman was taken, which resulted in the election of Senator Elihu Root over Gov. McGovern of Wisconsin, the vote showing that the Taft people were in control of the convention.
SENATOR ROOT'S ADDRESS.
Upon his election as temporary chairman of the Republican National Convention Tuesday evening Mr. Root delivered an address in which he praised President Taft as a moderate progressive. He declared that this country should hold sacredly to the Bill of Rights, and that constitutional limitations must be observed. During his address Senator Root said: "We will make and vigorously enforce laws for the promotion of public interests and the attainment of public ends, but we will observe those great rules of right conduct which our fathers embodied in the limitations of the Constitution.
"We will hold sacred the declarations and prohibitions of the Bill of Rights, which protect the life and liberty and property of the citizen against the power of government. We will keep the covenant that our fathers made, and that we have reaffirmed from generation to generation, between the whole body of the people and every individual under the National jurisdiction. It is a covenant between overwhelming power and every weak and defenseless one; every one who relies upon the protection of his country's laws for security to enjoy the fruits of industry and thrift, every one who would worship God according to his conscience, however his faith may differ from his fellows; every one who asserts his manhood's right of freedom in speech and action—a solemn covenant that between the weak individuals and all the power of the people and the people's officers shall forever stand the eternal principle of justice declared, defined, and made practically effective by rules in those provisions which we call the limitations.
That covenant between power and weakness is the chief basis of American prosperity, American progress, and American liberty. It is because we have always observed it that we are put born to discussions and resolutions and civil war and alternating quarrels and decisions have so many of our sister remembers that we must defend them. Nowhere in the world is there an institution that the two nations

"We will maintain the power and honor of the Nation, but we will observe those limitations which the Constitution sets up for the preservation of local self-government. This country is so large and the conditions of life so varied that it would be intolerable to have the local and domestic affairs of our home communities, which involve no National rights, controlled by majorities made up in other States thousands of miles away or by the officials of a central Government.
"We will perform the duties and exercise the authority of the offices with which we may be invested, but we will require all of us to observe those constitutional limitations which prescribe the boundaries of official power. However wise, however able, however patriotic a Congress or an Executive may be, however convinced they may be that the doing of a particular thing would be beneficial to the public, if that thing be done by usurping the powers confided to another department or another officer, it but opens the door for the destruction of liberty. The door opened for the patriotic and well meaning to exercise power not conferred upon them by law is the door opened also to the self-seeking and ambitious.
Good Work of the Administration.
"The newly created bureau of mines and the newly authorized children's bureau mark the limit to which the National Government can go toward improving the conditions of intrastate labor without usurping the powers of the States. The pure food law has been enforced with vigor and effectiveness. There have been over five hundred prosecutions for violations of that law within the past year and more than a thousand cases within the past three years. More than five hundred shipments of adulterated and misbranded foods and drugs have been condemned and forfeited and enormous quantities of injurious food material have been destroyed.

classified and the data prepared for the

position. Construction under the arid
land reclamation projects has bee
pressed forward and over fifty thousand
people are now living upon the re-

"Great reforms have been made in the economy of the public service. A commission appointed by the President has been examining all the departments of Government operating under the antiquated statutes passed generations ago with a view to applying in them the labor and money saving methods which have made the success of the great business establishments of our country. In the Treasury Department alone, where the reforms first received their effect an can best be measured, over eighteen hundred places have been abolished, and with increased efficiency of service an without discharging any one, but simply by not filling vacancies as they ocurred. The savings effected in the administration of this one department amount approximately to $2,631,000 per annum. The same policy in the Post Office Department has made that Department self-supporting for the first time in thirty years and has changed deficit of $17,479,770.47 in 1909, cause especially by increased cost of rural free delivery, to a surplus of $219,118.12 in 1911. In the meantime the great Republican policy of rural free delivery has been advanced so that rural free delivery routes now number 42,199, covering a mileage of 1,210,447 miles. In the meantime also the new Republican policy of the postal savings system has successfully inaugurated under the act of June 25, 1910, beginning experimentally with a few offices and man after eleven months of operation, extending to 7,500 Presidential post office and $11,000,000 of deposits. The arm has been made more efficient. The great process of training not only the regular army but the militia by means of officer of instruction and joint operations has been pressed forward to the end that if war unfortunately comes upon us we shall have for the first time in our history a great body of trained America citizens competent to act as officers on the volunteer force, upon which we must so largely depend for our military defense. The test of mobilization of the regular army in Texas during the summer of 1911, with its rapidity of movement and freedom from disease, has exhibited a record of competency and ability most reassuring and satisfactory."
SAVES LIFE OF WHITE BOY.
Special to THE NEW YORK AGE
KEY WEST, FLA. June 18—Em Whitmarsh, a boy about 10 years old was saved from drowning to-day, by a Negro lad of about 16 years of age. Young Whitmarsh was sitting on the south end of the Mallory dock watching some swimmers in the water. Two other boys were playing on the doo when one pushed the other, knocking him overboard. While he was falling, his outstretche hand struck the Whitmarsh boy on the shoulder, and he fell in the water. Two of the swimmers went to his assistance, but it was not until Jam Hall, the Negro had mentioned in the first paragraph, sprang overboard with out removing his clothes, that he was rescued, but little the worse for his experience.

HE DESIRE TO. OWN SOME- THING.
The desire to own something is one if the most valuable assets a person can save with which to begin as well as to end life. The man who desires to own something will usually have his desire ratified, as such a man is never satisfied until it is gratified. In the beginning he may not have anything to offer in exchange for that he desires to own ut his labor of the hands and brains, ut that is the capital every man inits in large or small measure, be he rince or pauper. Given a, willingness work and reasonable skill in doing even the ordinary things thoroughly, ny young man can make his way in the world; can make a good day's wage as he goes along, which with proper self-ferial in his living expenses will not im in a few years enough capital in ash and in reputation with his neighbors to begin business and succeed in it, o that he may own the things the possession of which will give him the greatest satisfaction
The sentiment is becoming general among Negroes in all parts of the country that a man must not only know a great deal but he must own something to prove that he knows something. The pendrift, dressed up to date, who has nothing behind him to sustain his extensive living, does not find the favor now that he did ten and twenty years go among the people whose good opinion he desires, whose social and business influence he would enjoy. He must have some reputation for steadiness in work and for saving something of what he earns in order to stand well in his own estimation and that of his neighbors. That the desire for the independent ownership of one's time and occupation is growing our exchanges from show to week by the progressive business development in their communities. For instance, the Oak and Cal.) Sunshine says:
The slogan of the members of the Negro Business League at their inaugural last week at the Southern Kitchen was pretty what on preach and patronize your counter-rooms and your professional men as far as possible and produce something by land own a enterprise. If nothing more than a business are for a job. Make your own job by being a producer instead of a steady consumer. Buy land a farm.
A slogan with the word in its most while having in its community. We need such a one in New York, Brooklyn and Jersey City with an automatic arrangement that will keep ranging all of the time. We need it quickly, laundry, shoe and grocery stores of our own in all parts of the city where the people are in the city on the east and West in Harlem and in the Bronx. We need these business enterprises in order to accumulate money values to give the rate in financial consequence, and we need them to furnish employment for persons and daughters, who have small concerns of secure employment with a wide concerns of like character.
CHURCH POLITICS IN THE WHITE GENERAL CONFERENCE
In that part of the Episcopal address of the Methodist Episcopal Church, at the General Conference, at Minneapolis, referring to the Negro membership, the following position is declared: On grounds of expediency and it may well be said, by mutual preference, in view of all conditions, our Negro members have their separate Annual Conference, and our organization, that not by one or little of the rights or sanction benefits assisted by this arrangement, the Constitution and doctrine of the church operate in initially and without reference to race and prejudice conditions, our colored people are represented in this study on exactly the same basis as our white membership, and in proportion to their numbers they have equal voice with their white brethren in legislation and in all general Conference elections.
This is a clear statement. The outcome of the election for the eight new Bishops demonstrated the truth of it, as Dr. Thirklewould hardly have been elected the eight Bishop if the Negro delegates finding they would not secure the election of Dr. R. E. Jones, had not concentrated their strength upon him. That is the one way to play church politics "for keeps." Played earlier in the game they may have succeeded in electing both Dr. Thirklew
between the Church and the community, such an understanding in the beginning of the voting on each of the eight inquiries would have possibly secured two of the eight Bishops. Anyhow, since the selection of Bishops in all of the conferences has been reduced to a question of church politics, the Negro membership of the white Methodist Episcopal Church may try the plan at the next General Conference, and if they keep at it they will win in the long run.
"They have equal voice with their white brethren in legislation and in all conference elections," says the Episcopal address." Very well, then, let them play church politics as "their white brethren" do it. If the morality of it is questioned we have the first election to fill a vacancy in the discipolate of the ministry of Jesus for precedent, the election of a successor to Judas Iscariot being necessary, when Matthias was elected over Joseph Barsabas Justus. That first election to the "Bishoprick" was highly interesting (Acts 1, i-xxvi), and significant, in that for the fourth time Joseph of Jacob was denied inheritance in Israel. The 250,000 Negro membership of the Methodist Episcopal Church are very nearly in the same position as the Negro membership of the Republican party: they have equality in the councils of the party, but in order that they get equality of benefits out of the organization they will have to play the "game of politics" as their white brethren play it.
UNION OF NATIVES OF SOUTH AFRICA
The Dutch Boers and the British colonists in South Africa, who now dominate the country comprehended in British South Africa, have done what they could to disinherit the native blacks and to reduce them to a cipher in the Europeanized governments. Before the British conquered the Dutch Free States the Europeans had developed an administrative policy that excluded the native population from any participation whatever as citizens. They were regarded as serviles and treated with less consideration than dumb creatures, "having no rights which a white man is bound to respect," as our Chief Justice Tancy defined the condition of American slaves. When the British conquered the Dutch Republics and consolidated them with other possessions in the British South African Union, the natives were not included in the terms of citizenship and now have no status as citizens. Such a people so situated are bound to have grievances, as people who have no part, no voice, in making and enforcing the laws under which they live, unavoidably have.
No man, no nation is wise and just enough to govern another without his consent and participation in the government. Ancient and modern colonizations all show this to be true. The British were unable to do it with the people of their own blood in the Thirteen American Colonies. It was inevitable then that the African natives would have ultimately to get together for the protection of their lives, rights and property. This was recently accomplished at Bloomfountain, the strength of the organization being indicated in the following from the Lagos Weekly Record of May 4 received:
We reproduce in another column of THE AGE a powerful editorial article from the Weekly Record in which the inspiration, the motif, and the ultimation of the movement are set forth with the eloquence that understands and the courage that convinces. There is not a Negro in the United States who may not read the editorial with personal interest and profit. What has happened to the South African natives under European administration has in some sort happened to the Negroes of the Southern States, before the war they were robbed of their liberty and labor and the virtue of their women was regarded as the plaything of the slave masters, who treated their bastards as property; since the war their civil and political rights guaranteed by the Federal Constitution have so far been "denied or abridged" by the several States as to amount to virtual disenfranchement and tyrannical supervision and control of person and property.
The nature of Airliner in contact with Europeans has this question to make and define, not as white men want to make and define it but as they want it and we have faith that they will do it. They have begun in the right way. When the thinkers and rulers of a people become as one in inspiration, motif and ultimation, and keep of one mind, they will come to their own, if it should
their own strength and power, and have taken to the war. It took a long time to get the people of the British Islands of our mind and one purpose, it took a longer time to get the Germanic tribes into states and the states into the German Empire, and it took a longer time to told the Thirteen American Colonies into the thirteen original American States, now enlarged to some forty-eight, but these things have been done and are accomplished facts; what has been accomplished in these things is bound to be accomplished in like manner in Africa, as it is inconceivable that the African is not to have at least one empire of his own in Africa.
IS THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT SPINELESS?
Is the Federal Government spineless without the backbone around which everything is built, as a matter of fact or speculation? The question ought to be absurd enough on the face of it, but it is not, for the simple reason that every framework is only so strong as the life, the force, that animates it for the time bing. The Government may be strong and good enough, and fundamentally our is, but if the administration is weak or bad it amounts to the same thing as if it were structurally weak or bad. The strength of the Government is to be measured by the strength of the public opinion that makes it and the administration that responds to that public opinion in the enforcement of the laws. When the Democrats are in power they construe public opinion and the laws in one way; when the Republicans are in power they construe them in another way. In the main, however, justice is, or should be the fundamental purpose of Government—justice in the distribution of the collective benefits and in the equal protection of life, liberty and property.
In the Northern and Western States the Federal laws and authority are respected, and public opinion insists that this be done; but in the Southern States they are not respected and average public opinion insists that it be not done. State laws and authority are exalled above Federal law and authority, even in causes in which the relative jurisdiction of the two is rigidly defined and generally understood, as in the illicit distilling of liquors, in the right of a Negro to hold office and wear a Federal uniform and perform the duties of his office, with the sympathy and protection of the local police and public opinion, and the right of citizens to differ in politics and vote and be voted for, outside "the white primary" without inviting ostracism and mob wrather visitation, and the like.
A case in point occurred June, 1, at Union, Miss., when W. A. McAlpin, a Negro railway mail clerk, was unmercifully whipped. Why? The news dispatch explains, as follows:
The whipping seems to have been the sequel of feeling over the mulatto, who was making his first run on the New Orleans, Mobile and Chicago train. In place of the white substitute clerk, Parker, who has been running as an assistant police officer, McAlpin, who had been directed to wait at Union for the train, which passed going south at 2:42, which he was to board and assist to Laurel, left the train and went into a restaurant to get something to eat.
He was called out of the eating house, he says, and marched down the track at the point of a resolver. In an old gin and cotton house he found the ten or fifteen white men with four longy whits. He was forced to leave the house and marched unmercifully. He says he was struck on the head with a resolver, knocked and cuffed about, and warned not to work on the run again.
Despite his wounds, he ran and walked to Stratton, the next station, when released, and he could train the train there. When he came here it was necessary to bandage the greater part of his thighs. When he came back to his body and there were cuts on his head and neck.
"It is expected that the Federal authorities will investigate the outrage, it is said. There should be no expectation about it; there should be certainty that the Federal authorities will run down the fifteen white cowards and see to it that they are adequately punished. But there is no such certainty, because for the past sixteen years the Federal authorities at Washington have acted towards the white South as if they stood in awe of it in appointments to office and in prosecutions for offenses against Federal law and authority. President Grant began it by pardoning the North Carolina kuklux Klanites; and a Republican Congress voted general amnesty to those who had taken up arms against the Government in the Civil war instead of hanging or shooting the leaders guilty of treason. Postmaster Baker and his helpless family were done to death in South Carolina and the guilty parties were not punished; President Roosevelt invited the indicted Chartanooga lynchers to the White House, and so it goes. The white South is treated as the spoiled pet child of the Republic whose hands are always bound the parent, while the loyal faithful Negro is treated as a pariah, the Black sleep of the family.
The fifteen white cowards who assailed Railway Mail Clerk McAlpin should be hunted down by Federal detectives and punished adequately for their crime.
The Christian Conference took place in the Christian Recorder may be General Conference is ever. It was notley; it was sometimes disorderly. The possessim would only criticise and anger, but" beneath it all was the spirit of earnestness for the well being of the church. The Recorder thinks that a great deal of good work was accomplished by the General Conference, a review of which we quote in another column from our contemporary.
The photograph of Senator Ellinus Boot of New York, circulated before the meeting of the Chicago convention, of which he is slated to be temporary chairman, makes him look like the double of Lennard Bill Quigg, who after a stormy political career in the days when Senator Thomas Collier Flatt was a power in New York county and state politics, is now a retired citizen pursuing law, like ex-Gov. Frank A. Black, more for occupation rather than profit. His job is also a great lawyer. He and Co. Roosevelt used to be as close friends as Roosevelt and Senators Henry Cask Lodge and William Murray Crane of Massachusetts, but now they are all as a Commander R. L. Peary of the North Pole and his right-hand man, Matthew Henson. It is quite remarkable how great men fall out on the King's Highway and meet no more as friends.
Most women are afraid of rats and go all to smash in the presence of a snake. Just why the rodent and serpent should be their abhorrence is not plain, as the nature of the two is radically different. But the rat, cat and dog may all belong in the same class with the serpent, as there is perpetual empathy between them. There is usually trouble in any situation in which any two of them is found. Anyhow, there is a young woman at Sunbury, Park, who is not afraid of snakes. Last week, while walking along the country road, she came across a rattlesnakes, and, instead of running away, got a club and killed all of them. Her brother skinned them and will have them made into belts. The young woman belongs in the hero class, whether she gets a medal or a husband who will be able to live happily with her all of the days of his life.
Adul Baha Abbas, the Persian leader of the popular Bahai movement, who is now in this country preaching the gospel of religious toleration and universal peace, speaking in Philadelphia last week, said that he was willing to predict that woman would ultimately win the suffrage all over the world before the end of the present century, but that they must do it by their own efforts—"must endeavor to acquire the mental ability of men in science, arts, crafts and inventions." There is a job for womanhood. In the same daily newspaper containing the solemn priest Abbas' statement, the merry joker had smiled: "So you think your wife could be corrupt political organizations if she votes?" "I don't say that," replied Meckton, "but I will say that Herrietta can come pretty near breaking up any society they will let her join." But, truth to say, there are plenty of men built just like Meckton's Henrietta.
Talking about the movement, in Japan, to fetch about religious unity, between Shinotokam, Buddhism and Christianity, fostered by the Japanese government. The Outlook says: "The example thus set might well be followed by the Jews, Protestants and Roman Catholics in this country," while adhering loyalty to their separate creeds and churches, in a common effort for the betterment of the nation," and would "furnish much more hope of practical and immediate results than an endeavor to invent some common creed or create a ritual on which all can unite." As their work is separate and distinct in effort, although common in faith and purpose from that of the American churches, the Assemblies believe that the mission of the work denominations of the Western Hemisphere could do better work for the Negro and the nation if they had a working understanding. A National Congress represented by all of our denominations would accomplish this and attract the attention of the world to the magnitude of the moral and intellectual power of the work.

If the strike of the International Association of Hotel Writers in New York should result in resigning the hotel service to blacks as well as whites, and if that being accomplished it should teach the association that to make no discrimination on account of color in its constitution and yet to be informed of it as a present fable, the hotel workers should present falsehood and even up in the end, the strike will not have been in vain. It should also teach hotel proprietors that hotel workers should receive decent wages, and not have to depend upon the "tip system" foliated upon hotel patrons for their support, and that they should have reasonable and not unreasonable hours of service. Whatever the outcome may be, it is of the utmost importance the next step must be taken in an association for business and not for pleasure. Their interests need to be protected and promoted, and this cannot be done if pleasure and not business is made the primary purpose of the association.

What the General Conference Ascemplished.
The General Conference was energy,
enthusiasm, good nature, ambition,
innovation.
What did it do? If the noise had spent itself for nothing, as on a football field it would have been insecure, its judgments were surprising sound. It must ever be a wonder to those not accustomed to the method of procedure of ground conditions in little deliberation, could be arrived at. Four bishops were elected with but little friction in a remarkably short time, whose shape add real strength to our bench.
The layman's missionary movement and the Evangelistic bureau were approved, and made general officers without salary.
Of the 36 per cent given to the Conference, 90 per cent of it goes to Conference Treasurer to be divided; 40 per cent to superannuated preachers; 30 per cent to widows and orphans to missionary preachers, and 10 per cent to/Conference contingent expenses.
The church was divided into fifteen Episcopal districts, instead of fourteen, and 50 members of the membership of Missionary Board was increased by making the President of the Woman's Mite Missionary Society and the President of the W. H. and F. M. Society members of the same. Points of theological seminars were made members of the General Conference.
The Connectional Preachers' Aid Society was abolished. Shops of the Abbas of West Africa and South Africa were returned to their districts, with the privilege of coming back to this country once during the quadrennium at the expense of the church.
The next General Conference was vowed to be held in Philadelphia, which time the celebration of the centennial of our Connectional existence will take place.
The Movement to 'Unite by the Native of South Africa.
(From the Lugos, South Africa, Weekly Record.)
The movement on the part of the native of South Africa, to unite in their own welfare and for safeguarding their interests and rights in face of the problems and perplexities confronting them, and perplexities confronting them in the present day civilization, is rendered as indispensable as it is inevitable. And inevitable because of the plain and undisguised character of the treatment meted out to the black man everywhere, in the animation which excludes none but embraces all, and not only recognized universally as the measure to be meted out to the black man, but proclaimed as the one condition upon which the black man is to live, move and dance, confronting him, the black man would be less than human if he failed to realize the situation and take counsel with himself as to the ways and means he should adopt for protecting the omnipresent circumstances in which he finds himself, compete the black man as a rational being to do so. Race preservation, which is only another name for soft-preservation, is as important for him as for any human being. And he may be satisfied by the black man endeavoring to unite and formulate a national policy from his own standpoint as a set-off against the national problems he is compelled to face, but acting upon the dictates of the black man, he would activate any other people placed in like circumstances. Whenever such an attempt of the kind is made by the black man, or even where the attempt is suggested, it is generally met with obsession something like the following.
He (the Black man) should always persist in looking rather at the bright than the gloomy side of their position; that he should see how they advanced; that he should learn how to succeed; that nothing could check their advance; that he should touch that the darkest cloud had a silver lining; that he should frankly recognize and highly value the services and cooperation of thousands of people; that he should strengthen their hands and their work and not make it more difficult; and that he should obtain from expressing doctrines which imparted to the larger section of the European people an spirit of general interest and an ability to the advancement of the native.
NOTE AND COMMENT.
The Chicago Defender is excited over a "sensational" rumor that has reached it that Chrispus Attucks' monument is "to be removed from Boston Common." Think of that! Might as well talk of removing Boston Common from Chrispus Attucks' monument.
The Cuban revolution, like its former kind, is very slow and deliberate in movement, and is signalized by more talking than blood letting. "Be ye doers and not talkers of the word," does not appear to be a working principle of Cuban philosophy.
"Children are the joy and happiness of a home and deside," she said. The Indian article on "Child Training." So they are, but the children of a larger and a smaller growth do very little to make the childhood of the old folks a "joy and happiness."
The Negro Elks must get themselves another name or "be in the courts continually, spending thousands of dollars with the same results as in the New York case," is the conclusion of the Charleston (Wt. Va.) Mountain Lead. We think the Negro Elks have about reached that conclusion also.
The Mission Herald, says the Baptist Foreign Mission Board, sent 10,942 appeals and letters to superintendents of Sunday schools in 38 states for contributions for mission work and got only 1,528 responses. "Where are the reports from the other 9,414?" it asks. Coming, perhaps.
And now Coatesville, Pa., has an outbreak of smallpox on its hands! It doesn't pay a community to lynch and burn a man. Contesville has had fires and epidemics for retribution ever since it helped and burned Zoe of those waglers to commit可罚 of the crime. All such may be certain of it that their sins will find them out.

The Chicago convention needs to day as The Age goes to press on its new press, which is a real thing of beauty, and the first agony will be over when we go to press next week. And when the nominations are all made may all good Republicans be able to forget the rivalry for delegates and be willing to lend a hand to supporting the nominees and whipping the Democrats to a "frazzle" in November.
The American Baptist wants to know if the race is raising up men to take the places now held in church work by the older people. That is a very important question, not only as to church work, but as to all other work. That is to say, are the young people being prepared and have they the disposition to carry on the work of the fathers when it comes their turn. A race should be progressively old in its counselors and young in its workers; for the young grow old as the old grow young in the endless chain.
PLAN $10000
The Danville (Ky.) Torchlight is not satisfied with the way much church money is spent. It says: "We must remember that we are using the Lord's money in spending enormous sums to attend conventions and a multiplicity of annual meetings, and unless it can be shown that these meetings are a real necessity, He is not pleased with the expenditure." And the boards of one sort and another continue to grow in number and size. The meetings of some of their cost more in carfare than is netted and reported to the department of work they represent.
"Lynchers thirst for Negro's life at Salisbury, Md." says the flare head of a news dispatch. Maryland seems to be striking to get up a reputation as a Mob Wrather State, such as most of the Southern States enjoy, although such reputation, it has been demonstrated, is among the poorest and least
Negroes are not the only ones who have a noisy and riotous condition in some of their conventions. The Richmond Planet says it was reported from Democratic sources that the record "State Democratic convention at Norfolk was one of the most disorderly and disgraceful assemblages of men even seen in this Commonwealth, and that absolutely no 'rumpus' on the part of the colored people has ever exceeded it." The comfort in this is to be found in the hope that Negro assemblages will strive more and more to be a light of regularity and orderly procedure to the white assemblages.

"Slavery is not dead!" writes the Baltimore Afro-American Ledger, withinky tears, "and Theodore Roosevelt is the selected David of the people to meet and slay this Goliath of Gath who defies the tolling masses of the American people." The commercial makers of Big Business, of trusts, of corporations, of banks, of such and prosperous at home and strong aspected- abroad, while the political "Trust Busting" statesmen have made nothing but confusion in business and demoralization in the prices of all needful commodities by tricky tariff legislation, corrupt franchises, corrupt political practices, and rows among themselves for advantage and profit on the one hand and the other. The Business grafter, the political krifter and the publicist, the third of a kind, with the great mass of consumers and voters to be robbed and deceived into believing it is all done for their best interest, David to Goliath indeed! And neither was a saint.
"War is a game which, were their subjects wise, kings would not play at; sung Cowper. "We are glad to see that the trend of the world's sentiment among among Christian and civilized peoples is for peace. Let all differences and disputes be settled by arbitration." says the Christian Index. The Southwestern Christian Advocate narrows the question as follows: "The next step in the Christian movement should take should be to break up the sixty and more lichings that occur in our country yearly." Many agencies are working for the elimination of wars and for the peace of the world, but none of them more powerfully than the Christian principle of brotherhood—"Ye be men and brethren." The heaviest single burden of taxation we have to-day is the enormous pension charge and interest on bonded indebtedness created by our government, and far back as the war of 1812. Because of the enormous expense incident to war nations do not rush to arms as they did in former times.

Perhaps the largest drug store owned by colored men in the United States is the one in Chattanooga, Tenn. the proprietors of it are Messrs Allen and Wickliffe. They are engaged in a wholesale as well as a retail operation, the control of about $20,000. The drug store is located in the James Building worth about $15,000 and owned by a colored man of that name.

Two young men born in Texas but bred in California, have invented an electric device for controlling traffic in congested districts. The invention looks like a four-sided semaphore. It is electrically operated and oblates the necessity of the crossing policeman standing in the middle of the road. The device is one of the corners and by pressing a button, sound a signal and change the sign. The inventors are C. R. Isley and W. O. Warren.

THEATRICAL AND THE STAGE
WRITED BY
LINNER A. WALTON
VIEW OF CONDITIONS THEATRICAL
In recent years when the end of the season rolled around it has not been necessary to consume much time and since reviewing conditions and happenings in which the colored performer was closely concerned, as the food furious for hopeful and pleasant thought has been any too rich or plentiful.
By getting together and establishing central office for booking acts, say New York, an excellent option, usually would come out of what now a most unsettled and chaotic situation.
THEATRICAL JOTTINGS
in the past year it cannot be de and that situation has improved any grievent, although it is not all dark colored and it is bright spots on the theatrical mute, high give cheer to the colored performer, and it would not be surprised if there was a general change for the better before long.
an colored artist who has been actively involved with the show business for the past thirty years, in discussing the theatrical situation a few days ago, maintained that every ten years there was a big show in the theatrical market which directly affected the colored performer; that for the past three seasons such adverse conditions have existed, but that the skies will soon brighten and colored musical shows and colored vaudevillians will be more in demand.
There are some who seem to think with the erection of so many theatrues in New York and throughout the country that conditions soon will be favourable for the formation of a circuit which will warrant the organization of move and colored musical shows. It is also evident that the theatre fully from a financial standpoint during the season of 1911-1912, and while no money was lost, it is doubtful if any of the proprietors could take a six-month trip abroad on the net proceeds.
一
There is some talk that a colored show will be put in one of the burlesque wheels the coming season. In fact, both the Eastern and Western wheels are said to be seriously considering the adaptability of entering into such a project. It is also rumored that a circuit of ten, twenty and thirty-cent theatre will be formed, and that at least one colored musical show will be booked.
It is difficult to forecast at this time whether the colored vaudevillians will be given more consideration over the big time this season than last. Many believe that with the new combination made the colored show will go there. Perry G. Williams gave more colored acts work last season than any other big time manager, and although he has retired from the vaudeville field and turned over his houses to the Keith people, it is thought that E. F. Albee and his associates will give employment to colored acts bearing the big time bound.
The action of the Orpheum people in booking several acts over the circuit toward the end of the season has prompted the colored variety-artists to believe that Martin Beck will join with R. F. Albee and book more deserving colored acts next season than ever before. The Keith and Orpheum managers are working harmoniously together, and the combination can give more consecutive booking than the big time has been able to offer in years. There is no great demand for colored acts on the big time, but colored performers are greatly desired over the smaller circuits. What is destined to be quite a factor sooner or later in the theatrical world is the colored theatre, which is constantly in need of colored productions. Although the managers of colored theatres still experience difficulty in securing colored talent conditions are not as bad as a couple of seasons ago.
Strange as it may seem, there was a time when the majority of colored performers were opposed to playing before colored audiences. I recall when the Crescent Theatre opened in W. 135th street the management had trouble gather inducing colored acts to play at this house. It was necessary to offer a performer more than he was getting at a theatre in the same class as the Crescent before the proposition would be favored privileged, and then often under pressure. There were colored performers approached on the subject of working at the Crescent Theatre who complained of the number of shows they would be compelled to work, yet then investigation it was learned that they were accustomed to play as many shows at other homes, if not more.
It was puzzling not only to the management at the time, but those interested in the success of the Crescent Theatre as to why such an attitude was taken by colored performers. The following distinction was finally made: That with a view to "going big" many colored performers led their friends to believe that they were working on one of the larger vandeville circuits; however, by playing at the Crescent it would tend to lessen the estimation held by the friends of the performer's high standing in the theatrical world.
I am glad to state that conditions are changing for the better on this subject, and that colored performers are showing an inclination to work wherever they get the figure usually paid them, be the theatre regarded as white or colored. In the past managers conducting the剧院 patronized almost extensively by colored people have been at a loss to understand why they had so much trouble securing colored talent, while white talent was and is willing to work before colored audiences and at a figure less than demanded by colored performers.
The importance of the managers of colored theatres forming a colored circuit has been emphasized in these columns frequently, but no definite steps have been taken to bring about a result which seems no such to these houses.

Hart's fists a few days ago. They were arguing over money matters and Bentham is reported to have called Hart a "bet" name to which the colored actor took exceptions.
HARRY KRATON ILL
Harry Kraton, the well known vaudevillian, and the head of the big time hoop rolling act known as the Kratons, is a patient in the Home Sanatorium, West Southmorne, Burnemouth, England, having broken a blood vessel while playing baseball several weeks ago. He will not be able, to work for sometime. While his act was playing at Shepards Bush, London, Harry organized a ball team, composed of colored performers and played against a team picked from the members of Klaw and Erlangers Pink Lady Company, now enjoying a new fun run in London. This promising colored vaudevillian pitched the entire game for his team, striking out fourteen men, and the colored nine, won, 15 to 3. After the game Harry felt weak, but merely thought he had over exerted himself. Upon going to a doctor was informed that he had broken a blood vessel and would have to stop working temporarily.
CRESCENT THEATRE
There were some very promising vaudeville acts at the Crescent Theatre the first half of the week. Buster and Rockpile are two young comedians who have enough material in their skit for two acts and should eliminate some of it. They do more talking than singing, but as much of their dialogue is amusing their talk does not grow unnotonous. If these two young men would put themselves under the tutelary ship of someone well versed in storyology they would make a strong team in time.
Stoveall and Stoveall also have an act of some merit, and they went big at the finish. Their dialog is bright and songs go well.
Original Rags returned to the Crescent the first half of the week, scoring in his song with numerous topical verses.
Huggins and Berry headed the bill the second half of last week, making friends. The bastione voice of the male member of the team is deserving of special mention, and his songs, particularly the ballad, went big. Huggins and Berry have several changes of costume.
PREPARING FOR TOUR.
Arrangements are being made for the first annual tour of the Colored Benevolent Association, which will begin about Monday, July 15. The vaudevillians will appear in New York, Philadelphia, Baltimore, Washington, Wilmington, Atlantic City and Asbury Park. The performers will travel on a special train, and it is estimated that at least one hundred of the C. W. B. the ladies' auxiliary to the organization will participate. W. N. Spiller is chairman of the arrangement committee; Black Carl, director; D. Whiting, treasurer, and Lester A. Walton, press representative.
The directors of the Settlement School recommend that the compositions submitted by the students be genius of the Negro race in music. The jury selected to judge the music will give preference to our compositions. Our compositions must come up to a recognised standard of merit.

First Price $75.00
Second price $25.00
Cashier will follow instructions.
1. The contest is open to all colored people reading in Greater New York, and
all students in grades 1-3.
2. The compositions must be seat on or before November 1, 1912, and should be written on 43d street, New York City. On the corner of the envelope should be written "Primer" or "Second" to indicate the compositions solely on its own position irrespective of whether the composer be well known or wholly unknown. In order that the compositions be partially of the jury the plan that is customary in all such contests will be written on the envelope to sign to make his composition by a fictious name, but to send with his composition a sealed envelope containing the title of his composition. He should write the title of his composition on the outside of the envelope. After the compositions the envelopes will be open and the compositions will be returned to the sender. The jury will be selected from the most prominent musicians in New York and will be in cloose.

FROGS FROLIC NEXT WEEK.
In previous years the annual frolic and summernight's dance of The Frogs has been the most largely attended dance of the summer season in the East, and it is highly probable that this year will be no exception to the rule. This widely advertised affair will be held Thursday evening, June 27, at Manhattan Casino.
E. E. Thompson's Band of fifty pieces will furnish the dance music, and lovers of the terpsichorean art will have an opportunity to indulge in their favorite diversion from twilight till dawn.
There are hundreds of members of the fair sex in New York, Brooklyn, Jersey City, Newark, Philadelphia, Baltimore, Washington and Boston who have Frog pennants from the first dance given up to 1911, and in order to allow them to increase their selection 1912 pennant will be given to the ladies.
CASINO TO OPEN JULY 10.
The opening of Young's Casino, 134th street and Park avenue, has been postponed from July 1 to Wednesday, July 10, owing to the inability of the contractor to have this new amusement place in readiness by the first of next month. The opening of the Casino will be marked by a big vaudeville entertainment and dance, the proceeds from the sale of tickets to be given to local worthy charitable institutions. The Quality Amusement Company, organized to present unique entertainments and dances at Young's Casino from time to time, will soon-announce the date of its first offering.
IN THE WORLD OF SPORT
(By Lester A. Walton.)
FRAMING UP ON JOHNSON.
WITH the exciting Republican Convention at Chicago, the great pitching of "Rube," Marquard and the winning spout of Walter Johnson and his teammates of the Washington team occupying so much attention, the coming fight between Johnson and Flynn for the heavyweight championship of the world, scheduled to take place in New Mexico July 4, is being given scant consideration.
And yet there is being played a crafty, wicked game to restore the championship title to the Caucasian, although the gum-shoe methods being used are not escaping the attention of foxy "Jack" Johnson. I find myself unable to go into estates whenever the name of the champion is mentioned, and I have never been guilty of throwing my hat in the air, calling: "Three cheers for Johnson," but you have to admire the shrewdness displayed by this ebony-head fighter, who is at all times capable of taking care of himself, whether it be in a mental or a physical contest. Rumors have been afloat up and down Broadway for several weeks that there is a well-organized movement to make Johnson the victim of a hold-up game on Independence Day out in New Mexico by awarding the decision to Flynn whether he wins or not. The plan was to have as referee someone who could be depended upon to give a most raw decision if necessary, and then live without having his conscience worry him for having been principal to such a flagrant hold-up.
The rumor that an attempt would be made to "hand Johnson a hot one" must have been heard outside of New York, as Johnson has been transacting his business for the coming fight with care and precision. He showed conclusively that his eyes were wide open a few days ago when he scratched from a list of referees submitted for his consideration eleven aspirants, leaving but four to choose from. Those on whom the champion looks with favor are Ed. W. Smith of Chicago, Jack Welch of San Francisco, Edward Cochrane of Kansas City and Mark Levy of Albuquerque.
The men Johnson rejected, asserting that they could not render a decision in a fight in which he was principal under any circumstances. Abu Pollock and his photographs of Denver, Sandy Grisel and Omaha, Sam Austin and Honest John Kelly of New York, George Barton of Minneapolis, Harry Sharpe and Frank Noel of St. Louis, Charles Murphy of Buffalo, Albert Jones of Albuquerque, and Charles O'Malley of Las Vegas.
The champion has a good line on the fistic prowess of Flynn, and while he does not regard his coming opponent as a great fighter, yet he is training faithfully, as Flynn is not to be considered too cheaply. But the principal reason Johnson is getting into fine shape and keeping eyes and ears open is because of the rumors he, too, has heard about the frame-up to cheat him out of the championship title, if possible.
Redding Strikes Out Twenty-four.
"Dick" Redding, the speedy pitcher of the Lincoln Giants, hung up a new record for strike-outs at Olympic Field against the All Leaguers Sunday, sending twenty-four men to the bench by way of the one, two, three route, shutting out the opposing team, 6 to 0.
The boy from Georgia allowed but three hits. Of the three members of the All Leaguers who made hits Redding had two strikes before the ball was showed into safe territory.
The All Leaguers were made up of players from Metropolitans and the Washington United States League team.
The big league record is nineteen strike-outs, which was made by Charlie Sweney of the Providence team in the eighties. Redding's record beats anything made by either professional or semi-professional teams. The score:

Giety needs at this time a man of Torce~
ful character and energetic manner such
ae Dr. Penn is known to be. “He ia pe~
ealiarly known as a man who has been
successful at etutything he has attempt-
ed. He called the attention of the coun-
try to the remarkable achievement of
fhe Negro race through the success of
the Negro exhibit at the Cotton States |
Exposition, held in Atlanta in 1895, be-
amee of the painstaking care and gen-
eral forethought that directed his every
Sloroment a3 head of the department
‘ia generally known, too, that through
his invitation, he gave thet ‘eminent ed-
weator, Dr. Booker T. Washington, the
opportunity, at the Cotton States Ex-
position, to promulgate his gospel of
amity and mutual helpfuinces between
the races, for which .be has since be
come famous the world over.
Dr. Penn came to this position from
=e ablic schools of ‘his home town,
‘a, where he was prin-
eigel, and where he not only succeeded
im his work, but had drawm considerable
emention to himself through the suthor-
‘a distinctively race work, "The
“American Press,” a book of 600
pages, which was an authority upon the
fetetion of the Negro press to the abo-
Kition of the race. With reference to
‘this book, Bishop Vincent said: “The
pen is the sword of the African, by
‘which be will win place and power. The
om volume ts 8 library of valuable
and biography, and a picture
gallery aswell.” Dr.’ Penn has since
written “Self Education,” “The United
Megro,” and is a joint author of “Seven
Greded Sunday Schools.”
‘As Dr, Penn has gone on his mission
as Assistant Secretary of the Epworth
League in his church, he has come in
gontact with young men and women, |
thas had heart-to-heart talks with and
hes been 2 great influence and inspira-
toa to hundreds of the Negro young
a His success in the Epworth
has been reficcted in the many
fields into which he has been called, and

cussion on federation of all the

@ut the world, upon which he is the
faaking lay member. : |
Im the matter of organizations, Dr.
Penn, has a notable career. He has to
his credit the Epworth League in his
own charch, which in the past sixteen
years he has built up until it occupies
the position of the best and most widely
Drganized Christian society among the
young people, yielding by far
the largest results. He engineered the
first and most successful Negro expo-
sition movement, during which time he
also called together thé*Negro physi-
cians, giving birth to the idea which has
since resulted into the forceful Na-
tional Medical Association. (
Through the National Negro Young
People’s Congress, Mr. Penn offered
for the first time in all history a move-
ment whereby Negroes of all ‘lenomina-
tions could come together in one great
Christian movement for the race. The
last movement which he pushed t a
successful end was that of quadrupic

ward these conventions that in less than
two years he would be called to the
office, of one of the corresponding. sec.
retaries of the Freedman Aid Societies
and given the task of pushing forward
the great jubilee movement which was
the outgrowth of these conventions.
‘Twenty-five me ago, whe Dr.
Penn lived in Lynchburg, Va, he un-
dertook to take the lead, with others, in
having the local church, of which he
was a member, give $5,000 in one sam
for the establishment of the Virginia
Collegiate and Indystrial Institute in
that city, now one of the Freedman
Aid Schools. His church gave this sum
of money. Perhaps the most effective
argument which he will have to use
iia securing funds throughout the church
for the education of the Negro, will be
that one church, throwgh his own ef-
forts (at the time he never dreamed of:
being secretary of the Freedman Aid
Society) contributed such a sum of
money for the education of Negro chil-
dren, emphasizing at this early time,
self-help upon their part.
His success in these and other efforts
leads the people of the country to feel
that he will bring to the Freedman Aid
Society, in addition to his energetic
and forceful manner, the ripe experi
ence he bas gained in all these activi-
ties, and thus be the means of bringing
about larger results. for she work of the
Negro schools in the Soutn that depend
almost entirely upon the Freedman Aid
Society for their maintenance.
Some forces within the church argue
for the expansion of one or two of the
twenty-three schools along jines which
will more effectively reach and help the
masses of the Negroes. One writer has
pointed out in the public prints the suit-
able location of cither Clark University
or Claflin, particularly referring to the
fact “that for forty vears the Freeman
Aid Society fae owned a four-hundred-
here tract of land just outside of At
fanta, upon whieh the jand ina ethes
been idle or contributine no revenue
and adding practically no cdueaticna!
value to the school. In view, of the-e
facts, it appears that according t® his
record, Dr. 1, Garland Penn can come
ag near bringing to pass the featurcs of
educational work in these church
sqhoola shat will most effectively reach
the magses of the people.” *
“Hundreds of letters have come into
the office commending his selection to
thx Isiportant post, from government
offcials, white and colored pastors,
bishops of the church, business men of
national and world-wide reputation, all
of whom pledge to the new secretary
their continued support and good will.
On particularly noteworthy letter read:
“I am sure you will take up your
task, not as a novice, but as a clear
thinker, a ripe scholar with a woader-
fully balanced mind possessing un-
usual tact and executive ability, and
withal as a Christian gentleman of win-
some personality and tremendous force
of moral character. All these splendid
traits you.will have ample opportunity
to exercise in your new field of labor
to the glory asd ‘honor of God and to
the Christian elevation of our people.”
A lester from a Christian woman of
Ohio encloses the first contribution to
Freedman Aid work which Dr. Penn
has received.
There seems every reason to believe
that under the new administration of
affairs of the Freedman Aid Society
‘through Dr. Penn and Dr. Maveety,
who serve with co-ordinate jurisdiction,
the twenty-three important schools for
Negroes throughout the South will en-
ter upon a new era of prosperity and
racial uplift that will be the pride of
every race-loving Negro. :
‘One. of Dr. Penn's trite and bromidic
sayings is that he prefers showing how
he can do things rather than talking
about them, since doing them both
Shows and ‘tells wore cfectively than
any talk. As to his platform ability, Dr.
Penn has arisen to every emergency,
which any occasion demanded requir-
ing public utterance upon his part. ‘It
is a matter of history that just after
his appointment ‘as assistant secretary
of the Epworth Leagus, upon the of-
casion of his first public address in
Massie Hall, at Toronto, at _the Inter-
national Npworth League Convention.
Upon that aecasion he seas intradaced
iy Bishop John W. Hamilton of Bos-
vin, and the impression wbich be mite
upon the audience was so great that
Hishop_O. P. Bitzgerald, of the Meth-
adist Episcopal Church, South. came

hand of Dr. Penn, and the’ two <todt
