BANQUET TO BISHOP WALTERS Citizens of Greater New York and Vicinity Honor Churchman NON - PARTISAN AFFAIR Republicans, Democrats and Pro- gressives Assemble at Young's Casino Wednesday Evening Bishop Walters tells Banqueters That He Believes Democratic Administration Will Be Considerate of Negro. Bishop Alexander Walters of the A. M. E. Zion Church, was guest of honor at a banquet given by the citizens of Greater New York and vicinity Wednesday evening at Young's Casino, 134th street and Park avenue. While the gathering was non-partisan in its makeup, Republicans, Democrats and Progressives being present in goodly numbers, more than ordinary political significance was attached to the affair, as the occasion marked the first public acknowledgment of Bishop Walters as the new political leader of his race for BISHOP ALEXANDER WALTERS the incoming Democratic administration at Washington. The banquet was largely attended and the race was represented in all walks of life. Well known divines, professional and business men and those actively engaged in politics broke bread together, and the speakers were profuse in their complimentary references to Bishop Walters. Young's Casino was tastefully decorated, and the cut flowers and potted plants on the tables aided greatly in making the scene an inviting one. The somber evening clothes of the male guests were in direct contrast to the bright, attractive costumes of the ladies present. Counselor James L. Curtis creditably performed the duties of toastmaster. In starting the speechmaking Counselor Curtis said in part: "Just as an all-wise Providence has conserved in the bowels of the earth the material means of sustenance for the human race, to be economically dispensed at different stages in the world's history, to meet the demands of existing exigencies, so an inestutable God has ever held in reserve a man possessed of certain qualities and attributes to be called forth from the mound of time when in the course of human events the public weal demands the appearance of such a personality to advance a cause or promote a great undertaking. "The present exigencies demand that an unstinted, courageous and able advocate of the rights of the Negro race, step forth in the spotlight of the drama of American life to play this role. In the personality of our distinguished guest of honor, with the connexion and infidelity belonging only to the Diety, God has called forth Bishop James Ammons to perform this mighty task. To those who have traveled from New York to Liverpool it is a well known fact that after the regular pilot on the ocean liner has safely piloted the ship across the blood expanse, a few miles before the ship made the Liverpool landing, a special mission is brought to the ship to pilot the liner into harbor, because of shifts in the treacherous currents that glide. So, when this race of ours made other pilots have traversed the distance, in 1912 in safety and with such confidence we demand the alert brain and body hand of a special pilot, to meet another extra hazardous conditions, and a pilot the Negro race is proud to take in the person of our distinguished most of honor whom I am proud to call God, and whom I am happy to ac- JAMES L. CURTIS claim my leader, Rt. Rev. Alexander Walters." Bishop Waltera was given an enthusiastic reception when he arose to speak. He said in part: "Mr. Toastmaster and Friends: "I have not words at my command sufficiently adequate to express my thanks to the committee, headed by my good friend, Mr. James L. Curtin, for this expression of your confidence and esteem. When I say I most sincerely thank you I but mildly state the gratitude of my heart. "I have been in public life since I was fifteen year old. Ever struggling an best I could for the rights of my people. When I entered the ministry many of my friends urged me to give my politics as they well did in it. I told them that if to speak out in behalf of an oppressed people and to urge men to vote for men and measures which I had deemed best for the interest of my race, was politics, then I would continue in it. "When I was elevated to the Bishopric of my church again a number of well-meaning friends advised me to withdraw from public life, or politics, but believing that I ha a mission along the political lines I refused to withdraw. Again no conference, annual or general, no Connecational Council, nor the Board of Bishops of my church as a minister, that they wished me to withdraw from public affairs. And since I have gone until now in this good work, with the approval of my church and conscience. If the church has not called me to flait within the thirty odd years of active service I do not see any reason why I should turn aside from what I believe to be a God-given work because of the criticisms of outsiders. I congratulate my democratic Party of the United States its great triumph of November 5, in the election of Woodrow Wilson and Thomas R. Marshall, President and Vice-President of the United States. In them we have two of the best prepared leaders of the country. I con- NEGROES OR COLORED PEOPLE-WHICH? Prominent Negroes Discuss Question at Banquet Given by Thomas L. Jones, of Washington, D.C. Special to THE NEW YORK AGE WASHINGTON, D.C. Dec. 4., At a banquet given by Counselor Thomas L. Jones at his residence, 1901 New Hampshire avenue Northwest, a few evenings ago, the guests became involved in a lengthy discussion on the subject, "Shall We Call Ourselves Negroes or Colored People?" The banquet was attended by some of the leading Negro residents of the Capital city. Dr. John R. Francis, one of the most prominent of the local Negro physicians, declared that colored people was preferred, but he met bitter opposition from Ralph W. Tyler, the Negro auditor for the Navy Department. The question had equal support among those present, and after some discussion the subject was dropped for a more pleasant one. Among those present at the banquet were Judge Robert H. Terrell, who presided as toastmaster; J. P. Napier, register of the Treasury Department; Auditor Tyler, Dr. Francis, Prof. Kelly Miller, of the Howard University; Roscoe C. Bruce, assistant superintendent of schools; Calvin Chase, the Rev. S. T. Brown, the Rev. Dr. T. L. Garner, George W. Cook, Frank P. Plumber, Walter Wellebourne, Prof. Tillis, J. C. Thomas, Jr. of New York, and R.W. Thompson. WASHINGTON, D. C., Dec. 4- Negro writers employed in the various late's and early's of Washington are considering the establishment of a school for writers, where those desiring to engage in this employment, as well as men already working, may become proficient in the matters of good service. A meeting will last week in the lecture room of St. John Baptist Church with all officers and waiters in at least one at which the establishment of such a school was discussed, and preliminary steps were taken. At the meeting preliminary steps were taken for the organization of a Waiters Educational Society, and A. H. Underdown was chosen temporary president with C. J. Cole temporary secretary. Mardi Gras and Fancy Dress Carnival Given By Eutopia Neighborhood Club Largely Attended. Crowned as king and yet not a king was the peculiar experience of Cassio Norwood at the Mardi Gras and Fancy Dress Carnival of the Utopia Neighborhood Club at the New Star Casino Friday evening. Ordinarily kings are kings by the divine right of family inheritance, and they are deprived of their thrones only through final dissolution of their earthly tabernacles, from natural causes, sudden death by violence, forced abdication by more powerful claimants for their throne, or by the revolutionary uprising of their ill-governed subjects. Mr. Norwood owed his elevation to the kingly estate and his disposal therefrom to other and entirely different causes. A feature of the Mardi Gras was the casting of a popular vote for king and queen of the Carnival. Cassio Norwood was a candidate, and a very popular one. There were five other candidates, and their friends were just as desirous that they should have this honor. The balloting finished and votes counted; announcement was made by the official announcer, Wm. H. Vaughn. The crowd was large and the excitement was intense. The vote as announced was misunderstood by some of the anxious friends of Mr. Norwood, and information was given Mrs. A. S. Reed, president of the club, that he had received the highest number of votes. Mrs. Reed immediately instructed Mr. Norwood to don his kingly robes and take place in the procession which would lead him to the throne. Howe, Johnson was counted and the one actually receiving the highest number of votes, demanded a recall of the supposed-to-be king, claiming that the throne was his by virtue of receiving the largest number of votes cast. The claim of Mr. Johnson was referred to the supervisor of election, Arthur W. Handy, but in the meantime the coronation ceremony went merrily on and Mr. Norwood, amidst scenes of pomp and glory, received the regal emblems of his high estate. Mr. Johnson's claims were founded in fact. He had received the highest number of votes east, and his kingly dignities and honors had been wrongly given to another. There was little salve or palliation for wounded ambitions, but such as was contained in the award of a prize of $10 in gold, which was provided for the successful contestant, was given to Harvey Johnson. The contest for the queen was hotly contested, but the honors went to Miss Minnie Cherry, who made a charming picture in her queenly habiliments, although the consciousness caused noticeable nervousness on her part. She was also awarded $10 in gold. The vote was as follows: For king—Harvey Johnson, 241; Cassio Norwood, 173; J. C. Whittaker, 82; Dr. J. S. Williams, 62; H. O. Harding, 41; E. A. Nichols, 28. For queen—Miss Minnie Cherhy, 383; Miss Bessie Perkinson, 310; Miss Bessie Pike, 136; Miss Lillian Dickerson, 82; Miss Marian Johnson, 32; Miss Minnie Johnson, 30. The Man Farthest Down By Booker T. Washington Author of "Up from Slavery," "My Larger Education" This is the record of a trip made by Dr. W. W. the purpose of studying conditions in Europe, and illuminating book. For there is no one whose knowledge and understanding enables him really to depict the man farthest down like the author of Slavery; and the great beauty of it is that it is filled with optimistic observations founded on solid fact as as "Bad as conditions are in some places, I do not visit any place where things are not better made some years ago." His journey was a journey saddest spectacles in European life. As he says: will think, perhaps, that everything I was look commonplace or bad, and that I avoided every nary or worth while looking at. My only excuse in fact, not looking for the best but for the worst hunting for the man farthest down." The inspire book is that, having found the man farthest down an abundance of hope for him. This is the record of a trip made by Dr. Washington for the purpose of studying conditions in Europe, and it is a most illuminating book. For there is no one whose keen sympathy and understanding enables him really to depict the conditions of the man farthest down like the author of "Up From Slavery," and the great beauty of it is that it is filled with such optimistic observations founded on solid fact and deduction as "Bad as conditions are in some places, I don't think that I visited any place where things are not better now than they were some years ago." His journey was a journey among the saddest spectacles in European life. As he says: "Some people will think, perhaps, that everything I was looking for was commonplace or bad, and that I avoided everything extraordinary or worth while looking at. My only excuse is that I was in fact, not looking for the best but for the worst. I was hunting for the man farthest down." The inspiration of the book is that, having found the man farthest down, he shows an abundance of hope for him. With Frontispiece Map Net $1.50 Doubleday, Page & Co. Garden City new 2nd New York THURSDAY, DECEMBER 6, 1912 The Mardi Gras and Carnival. The program was divided into three parts. The first part was a program of dance music rendered by the New Amsterdam Orchestra, H. Gladstone Marshall conducting, during which the folks enjoyed 'themselves dancing'. At 12 o'clock, midnight, came the beginning of part two, which embraced the coronation exercises. Henry S. Creamer staged the entire production, and his efforts were highly successful. During these exercises the orchestra was conducted by Will H. Tyerg The program opened with a drill by the carnival girls, a group of twelve daity little misses, garbed in white and red. They wore white fur-trimmed hussar coats, with red shirt, shoes and stockings, and red Rudolph caps. As they moved gracefully through the intricacies of the drill a spotlight flashed vari-colored lights over their ranks, producing a beautiful color effect. The young ladies, were Missen Myers, Elsie Gardeen, Katie Wilson, Ethel Gardeen, Eola Chichester, Gretchen Ten Eyke, Luett Chichester; Elestine Perkins, Eileen Brown, Elsie Prime, Maud Palmer, Cordelia Garner. The second number on the program was the coronation profession, led by Wm. H. Vaughn, announcer, and Henry S. Creamer, court clown. Next came the carnival girls, accompanied by twelve toreadors, as follows: Ellton Wilson, Harold Parker, Clarence West, Robert Waller, Bert Piles, Oscar Heylinger, Harold Harding, Granville Green, Edgar Perkinson, Percy Lee, Gersham Myers, Gardner Jackson, flower girls, Rosaline Jorden, Consola Tupe; king and queen; pages, Rozier Hansborough, Robbie Lee. Odessa Warren Grey, queen of the Carnival last year, crowned the king and queen. Baby Helena Sheldon Johnson, Brooklyn, daughter of Mae Wells, of the team of Johnson-Wells, gave a realistic and impressive impersonation of Bothwell Brown's "Serpent of the Nile," to the music of the "Sun Dance." "Dance of the Fireflies." The "Dance of the Fireflies," originated, named and costumed by Mrs. E. L. McCall, was rendered by the twelve carnival girls. The costumes were sheer gowns of red silk games over red tights, red shoes, and wings tipped with silver spangles. The costumes were designed and made by Mrs. McCall, who also selected the girls to participate. The music was Will Tyern "Dance of the Fireflies." Miss Cordelia Garnett, the embodiment of the poetry of motion in the "Motor King Dance," and was compelled, as were all the other dancers, to respond to an encore, "King Chanticleer, an eccentric dance," was given by Miss Ruth Cherry. The oddity of their costumes and the unique character of the dance made a hit with the large audience, and they were roundly applauded. The exercises concluded with a mardi gras carnival, in which the membership of the Charity Play Club, comprising the carnival girls and the toreaders, with the members of the Utopia Club who were in fancy costumes, participated. The prize of $10 in gold for the most beautiful costume was awarded to Mrs. Ardelle Taylor. Officers of the Utopia Neighborhood Club are: Mrs. A. S. Reed, president; Mrs. E. L. McCall, vice-president; Mrs. Prince D. Smith, secretary; Mrs. Wm. H. Tyers, financial secretary; Mrs. C. Franklin Taylor, treasurer; Mrs. Mary Terrell, chaplain. The reception committee was Mrs. Ella McCall, chairman; Mrs. Harry Brown; secretary; Mrs. Martha Williams, treasurer, and Mrs. Rosa McLendon. The program girls were Vivian Ward, Pauline Mars, Mae L. Wells, E. Augustus Bishop, Florence Madocer, Minnie Johnson, Wilimena Adams and Ethel Norwood. The proceeds from this entertainment, which will reach goodly proportions, will be turned over to the Sojourner Truth House Committee. Large Amount of Property in New York and Vicinity Being Handled by Negroes — Many Are Doing Well. Continuing the investigation begun last week on conditions within the Negro business interests of New York. The Age representative visited this week several of the representative Negro real estate agents whose offices are located in the Harlem section, and made some inquiries concerning the handling of properties for rental to Negro tenants. Philip A. Payton, Jr., with offices at 67 West 134th street, is the pioneer Negro real estate agent in New York City. He made his first venture in 1900. In reply to a question as to how he succeeded in getting houses to rent to Negro tenants in the beginning, he said: "I was a real estate agent, making a speciality of the management of colored tenement property for nearly a year before I actually succeeded in getting a colored tenement to manage. My first opportunity came as a result of a dispute between two landlords in West 134th street. To 'get even' one of them turned his house over to me to fill with colored tenants. I was successful in renting and managing this house, and after a time I was able to induce other landlords to make the change and give me their houses to manage. By opening for colored tenants first a house in one block and then a house in another I have finally succeeded in securing for the colored people of New York over two hundred and fifty first-class flats and private dwellings, conveniently located as to transportation facilities, etc." Mr. Payton declared that it was only reasonable that colored tenement property should be managed by Negro agents because they would have more real interest, sympathy and respect for their tenants. Asked as to the effect on properties for white tenants when adjacent properties were opened for Negro tenants, Mr. Payton said: "As an illustration of the conditions that existed I cannot do better than test an actual case. I opened a house for Negro tenants at the end of a row of houses occupied by whites. Many of the whites moved, but the most peculiar phase of the affair was that in order to rent to white tenants the apartments on the side next the Negro tenement it was necessary to reduce the rent $4 a month less than on the opposite side, although the apartments were exactly alike. Negro Agents Open in Many Sections. Mr. Payton said also that the Negro agents had opened up sections never dreamed of in the beginning. Among other sections he mentioned West 119th street between Eighth and Manhattan avenues, and West 99th street between Central Park West and Columbus Circle. C. E. Hutchinson has his office at 5 West 134th street, and has six employees who are kept busy attending to the affairs of his office. Mr. Hutchinson was the second Negro to venture into the real estate business, and, like Mr. Payton, he has made a success of it. Two of the largest and wealthiest corporations of the city, one of them being the Ebling Brewing Company, have intrusted to his management all their properties which were bought for investment and rented to Negro tenants. These are million-dollar corporations. Speaking of the growth of his business, Mr. Hutchinson said that he started in the real estate business alone and built it up alone; that he had handled a number of properties he was satisfied no other agent could handle. Not long ago he handled a deal for a certain investor aggregating more than $100,000, and 'the deal was consummated in one day. Some deals he had carried through involved more than a half million dollars. An expert accountant is employed by Mr. Hutchinson, who audits the office books two or three times weekly, and in this way not only are the interests of his clients protected, but he is always able to tell the exact condition of his business. As to the future of the real estate business among the Negroes, Mr. Hutchinson declares that no one can tell what it will be. Its growth has been gradual but healthy and vibrant, and there is really no limit to it. Have Elegant Suite of Offices Nail & Porter are located at 135 West 155th street, in the financial district of the city, situated. The firm is composed of two senior men, Jack Nail and Harry Porter. The firm is partnerless young in the business, this being the first time the firm has been permitted to own the real estate business. The Porter said that the Negro great stranger is not unnoticed by the public. He is standing the Negro great stranger over the day and is always striving hard to break down the prejudice that exists against the Negro as a tenant. It is only the truth appearance on the part of the investor that the Negro is considered understake. The investor is (Continued on Page 7.) ASKS FAIR PLAY FOR NEGRO Ray Ettannard Baker Donoumous Segregation in Large Cities and Says White Man Should be Elevated to Treat Negro Justly. One of the principal speakers who addressed the City Club Monday evening advocating fair play for the Negro and protesting against the segregation of the race in certain districts of the large cities was Ray Stannard Baker, editor of the American Magazine. Mr. Baker declared that in segregating the Negroes and holding them down to the lowest occupations the white people were cultivating race hatred and working great evil to their own social conditions. "I do not know which is worse," he said, "the social disabilities which are placed upon the Negroes or the moral disabilities which we incur in so treating the Negroes. In the words of Booker T. Washington. 'The white man cannot keep the Negro in the gutter without staying there with him.' I often think societies formed to elevate the Negro would do better if their work were directed to elevating the white man to treat the Negro justly." Other speakers were Mrs. Henry Villard and Dr. George E. Haynes, Director of the National League on Urban Conditions Among Negroes. MRS. SUSAN VASHON DEAD. Special to THE NEW YORK AGE. St. Louis, Mo., Dec. 3.—The funeral of Mrs. Susan Paul Vashon. 74 years old, widow of the late Prof. Geo. B. Vashon, and mother of John B. Vashon, principal of Delaney School, who died at 8 o'clock Wednesday evening, at her home, 4583 Garfield avenue, was held Monday afternoon from All Saints' Episcopal Church, Garfield avenue and Locust street, to Bellefontaine Cemetery. Rev. C. M. C. Mason conducted the services. Mrs. Vashon was a native of Boston and a grandaughter of the Rev. Thomas Paul, founder of the Belknap Street Baptist Church. She came to St. Louis thirty years ago. She was for several years president of the Missouri Federation of Colored Women's Clubs. In the Civil War she aided in relief work for wounded Negro soldiers in Pittsburgh, Pa. JOHNSON MARRIES AGAIN. Special to THE NEW YORK AGE. CHICAGO, Ill. Dec. 3—Jack Johnson and Lucille Cameron, the nineteen-year-old white girl who is said to have caused the champion's first white wife. Etta Duryea Johnson, to commit suicide, were married Tuesday. The ceremony was performed by a minister of the A.M. E. Church and took place at the home the pugilist gave his mother at 344 Wabash avenue, in the presence of twenty friends, white and black, of the preteighter. COTTON SEED OIL MILL IN OPERATION Formal Opening of Mill at Mound Bayou, Miss., Attended by Nearly Ten Thousand Persons Special to THE NEW YORK AGE MEMPHIS, Teum., Dec. 3. Your correspondent was among a considerable group of men and women from Memphis who attended the formal opening of the cottonseed oil mill at Mound Bayou, Miss., a few days ago. Several present were heard to say that they did not believe that the members of our race in the United States appreciated the significance of the starting of this tremendous commercial enterprise by the black people of Mississippi and other parts of the South. Several surprises were in store for the party which went from Memphis to Mound Bayou. All were surprised at the tremendous crowd that gathered in the Negro town to hear the address of Booker T. Washington and to witness the formal opening of the mill by the blowing of the whistle for the first time. There were at least from eight to ten thousand people on the grounds, coming not only from Mississippi, but from Alabama, Tennessee, Texas, Illinois, Louisiana and other States. The second thing that surprised the Memphis delegation was the size of the cottonseed oil mill. The visitors had no conception that the buildings were so large or the machinery so costly and complicated. The third element of surprise grew out of the fact that the city of Mound Bayon was found to be much larger than the visitors had expected, and that the end in the day notwithstanding these were thousands of strangers in the city was maintained. Charles Parks, South T. Montgomery, and the officers of the city will allow the gratitude of the most fortunate to be undertaken by black people in the teaching of this course. It is hoped that as it is, the city will do more to the needs of the people. The city is now resting upon the book and the workers deserve and should have the thanks on our race. JAMAICA HARD HIT BY HURRICANE Western Towns Are Wiped Out By Destructive Tropical Wind Storm THOUSANDS HOMELESS Banana Industry Receives Great Set Back Temporarily and Coffee and Sugar Exporters Suffer Property Loss is Great in Leading Western Town—Westmoreland Devastated—Homeless Are Being Cared For. Late details of the recent hurricane in Jamaica, B. W. I., received by THE ACE show that the loss of life and property was greater than first reported. Many western parishes were almost completely destroyed by the storm, and the damage to the banana industry will be great. Montego Bay was hard hit by the hurricane and Lucea, Sav-la-Mar and Greene Island were almost wiped out. The entire parish of Westmoreland has been devastated and thousands are homeless. Every vestige of vegetation was swept away, although hope is expressed that the can crop of the parish will be saved. The Sav-la-Mar Parish church has been partially unroofed and the rectory destroyed. Archdeacon Davis was forced to live in his bath room immediately after the hurricane. St. Paul's Church, Grange Hill Church, Chichester Church, Mountpillar Church, Petersfield Church and the Darlington Church were damaged. At Negril the only building standing is the St. Mary's Church, which is being used to shelter the homeless. The destruction at Little London has been as complete as it was at Savi-la-Mar. The Wesleyan Church, the houses of Messers, Mayer and Goldon, and a shop belonging to the Hon. W. A. S. Vickers were the only structures left standing. At Montego Bay the homeless are being taken care of at the Court House, and many dead bodies have been recovered. Two days after the hurricane thirty-two dead bodies were found. There are at least three-hundred homeless at Montego Bay. There is hardly a banana tree standing at Catadupa and the surrounding districts. The storm at Cambridge was the worst within the memories of the oldest inhabitant. Great damage was done to property and the roads at Black River. All the buildings along the sea front were badly damaged. Among the heaviest losers are W. C. Nash and Co., R. B. Daly, Theo. E. Levy and S. S. Manley. At Montpelier the hurricane wrought havoc, leaving the town a mass of ruins. News from Lacovia, Ipswich, Hayes and Falmouth tell the same old story—that the hurricane damaged many buildings and destroyed bananas, coffee and ginger under cultivation. The Governor of Jamaica has completed an inspection tour of the western end of the island and the Government is providing hundreds with tents. No fear is being expressed over the probability of the needy ones starving, as the storm came at a time when provisions were ripe and ready for reaping. Quite a sum has been raised to aid the homeless. LEAVES $10,000 ESTATE. ALLENTOWN, Pa., Dec. 3.—When the will was probated last week of Caleb Nelson, a former slave, it was discovered he had an estate of upward of $10,000.

The pay and allowafices of the President are not such as to do this: they are not as great as those of the Governors- General of Canada, of India, and the like, and any effort to make them so would raise a public how! that would shake out of power the party responsible fer it, It has been that way in every “addi- tion Congress has made to the salary of the President and of their own salaries. We cheapen tht public service when we allow our public servants pay and allowances which corporations and pri- vate concerns allow, their division managers. Take the following irom the Philadelphia’ North .\merican, the chief newspaper of the Progressive party, of which Mr. An- drew Carnegie is not a partisan, ds a bit of venom a serpent might hiss at an honest man seeking w do a good deed: says the North American: It is now four days since the Carnegie egotism reached its full flower of offensiveness and without even the redeeming qualities of cynicism or of sardonic humor proposed to impose upon ex-Presidents of the United States a pension .of $25,000 a year for life. We have searched in vain for any sign’of approval of this Carnegi¢ setieme to make the little ironrraster the fairy godfather of the United States Government. If a single good werd has been said for it, such has escaped our attention. We cannot recall any proposition related to public policy that, se tar a> it has been discussed at all, has induced such universal reprobation, There seems to be a general sentiment that the dignity ef the nat’on has been offended: that one individual who has nothing to commend him cx- cept his millions has set himseli up as a power so much greater “han the repubbc that he condescends t patronize it, He pats it on the head and says, "New, if you are a good litte buy, PI give you $25,000 with whieh to. play store. Only, in this instance, the game is not “store” but “states- Sow, this watfendled digmty of the siation, this monumental conceit of the almsgiver, comprise one phase Sf the incklent well worth considering, Although, te our mind, not by any means the most important phase, it is, however, the mest obypurs and the most irritating. This feeling is some- thing entirely apart from the revulsion te “tainted money” which has been eNhihited on several eccasivns, when Mr, Curnegie’s greatest rival ay a | money-getter, Mr. Rockefeller, proposed large donations to religious work. | In the main, Mr. Kockefeller’s public benefactions have heen received with general approval. They have aided in invaluable work of science, in | the search for the causes, and therefure the eufes, of diseases which have | been axe-long cuemies of humanity, Roekefeller endowments have helped | te promote efficiency in publiy education, in every grade, from the ele- | mentary in the common schools to the post-graduate in the professional. a It is an old dodge tw pit one good man and his warks against | ativther (gooit man’ and lis works for the purpose of discrediting | both good men and their good works. This is the purpose of the | North American in pitting Mr. Carnegie and his works against Mr. | Rockefeller and his wark=. Every man cannot do it, but it is best , that he do it, as Saint Paul did, that he build upon his own foun- , dation and not upon another's. Jt is that way with Mr Carnegie and Mr, Rockefeller: cach built his fortune upon his own | foundation and distributes his wealth in diferent ways. Te isin ne | wise trne that Mr. Carnegie “has nothing to commend him except his millions.” Among other things he has this te commend him, | that far every ten per cent. of values he created out of Pennsyl | Sania raw material for Andrew Carnegie he created ninety per cent. | of fixed values for Pittsburgh and Pennssivania which were not ! there before he created them, which are there now, and will be | there as tong as Pittsburgh is Uvere. His literary” contributions have all been ior the glorification and upiuilding of the nation, } and mark hini as a man of genius: while his money contributions ; tu education, ts churches. to public libraries and to the promotion | of international peace by arbitration mark him as a man of broad \ and discriminating philanthropy. Far from being’ a blatant self- seeker after the applause of the rabble, Mr. Carnegie is one of the | most modest of men, and distributes his benefactions through | Boards. Commissions and ‘Trustees, rather than personally, none | but the largest of which are given to the public for information. Hut the greatness of Andrew Carnegie lies in, the fact that he has not drawn the race line or the national line in his intellec- ‘ual comprehension nor in-his money giving. Besides the $600,000 he ‘gave Tuskegee Institute he has given thousands of dollars to other Negro churches, schools and libraries not a few. He has not | denied the Neyro a considerable place in his giving. And his Edinburgh.

Bruce Kvany. from the principalship of the Armstrong) Manual Training schoo! “fpr the good of the service” is one of those things that happen in the Negro sdhool mix-tip in the District of Colum- bin which need not be taken at its face value, simply because most of them start and end it personal likes and dis- kes. : It is claimed that Prof. Evans has outgrown the work, that he is not up to the standard, and the like. Perhaps. We shall not go into that phase of it, which belongs particwarly to the School Board, but Tite Ack can, bear testimony to the fact that Prof. Evans has done as much as any other man during the past ten" years to bring the Negro public schouls of the District of Columbia up to the present high standard of effi- ciency and usefulness. He has made the Armstrong Training School the great and helpful institution that it is, and his influence with ‘former School Boards enabled him to exercise a large and good influence on the work of the schools other than his own. Tue Aor is justified in classing Prof. ‘Bruce Evans among the.great educators of the race. ‘DEATH OF SENATOR RAYNER. Some men die at the right time and some die at the wrong time, but as they have nothing to say about when the) should die, any more than when they should be born, they cannot be held re- sponsible for what they do. or is done to them. in the matter. Sometimes 2 man is horn’ before his times and some- times a lonk time after, and never gets straight with himself or his times, The | misfits are of that sort, and are fre- jauently men of such pronounced char- “acter that in the effort to get straiisht ‘with themselves they turn the world ‘and their times upside down. The Mlowliest pages in the history of man- j kind are a recived of the doings of sich | people .

A iew years ago the woman who sed artificial aids to beautify herself was viewed askance by the public. If nature was stingy with her gifts and one’s portion consisted of sallow skin, pitially short tresses and appearance Qencrally unprepossessing and anattrac- five, wae be te the dissatished woman whe attempted to remedy these imper- fectwwns by false hair, face powder, roxue. ot other such Tike “gay de- covers” The werld frowned upon the deception. : Tosiay things has» changed: women are beauty mad, and are employing every meats under the sun to improve ther fecks, “Common sense is in the discard, and) “fake” beamy doctors flourish This is more especially trne among white than colored women, The publics is) very lenient with miluly's weakness, and knows that it jg useless to say “don't” when she will, thereture so feng as she doesn't outrage nature tow much by her artiticial looks which is the great crime—it admires or amply tolerates Thereiore, ladies, if you employ these ‘beaut: aids, give some thought how test ts use them, The woman who does so will not insult good taste by smearing rouge on her face in the man- ner of a painted Indian going forth to war. Such a make-up is not pleasing to the eye since it is thoroughly un- natural: besides, one is likely to be placed in a class of. women to. which she would indignantly deny belonging. Nor is there anything pretty about a countenance which is ashy from too much face powder. There is now a face powder on the market which is designed’ for colored women, and harmonizes with their color better than the white tints most commonly used. Bonaparts-Grant Nuptials. Minx Eloise E.

Love's Language. There is a phrase’ in every tongue, to ~- evefy heart the same; In English ‘tis “I love you, dear!” in French’ ‘tis “Je vous aime!” - In German ‘tis “Ich Tiebe dich!" In Latin, “Amu Te!” Bur the words don’t really matter: it's WHO says them and—the WAY! There is a world-wide token. symbolical vi Ulises: in German ‘tis pronounced “gin kuss,” in English it’s “a kiss.” In French they call it “un baisers” but this we'll all allow, In isn't what they call it, but WHO. hisses yoir--and HOW! Aneniers te Woman Resdane: Miss Mi Li you would dress in good taste. pay particular attention to shoes, gloves, neckwear, veils and other small iccessuries that ge te make or mara costume It is not necessary to spend much money to be well dressed, but a woman must stick to plain modes and colors To Clara: Don't bathe your face in a half-hearted way, Wt) wash it thoroughly every might before going to hed in warm water, then cover it with + ood cream and massage quickly, using a tapping movement—that is to say, slap your face in very gentle, quick taps. Then finish off with a: bath in very cold water. Friction will keep the iace free of wrinkles better than anything else. but you must keep up the treatment otherwise it will do you no good, and remember, it is useless to apply wrinkle foods unless you are going to build up the body, give it good food. exercise and plenty of fresh: air.

Hence the comedy of errors. Hennessy has charge of the family) department of the United Booking Of- fees, and Blondell is also commected| with the United as booking agent. The Lafayette Theatre is bemg furnished acts by the family department of the Dated, but the conser of the Boass never seen Messrs. Heaneasy Blondel. . It was om a Sunday cvening and ‘the two booking agents had just returned from an automobile trip up state. While| im Haslem Hennessy suggested that a ‘visit be paid the new theatre, as he was) aaxious to look it over and sce how it was doing. Not caring to be known, they applied at the box office for two tickets, the eead af the United Family Department handing the cashier a $1 bill aud ask- mma for seats on the frst floor. The applicants were begrimed with dust and theie faces showed the nted of becom- ing on familiar terms with soap and water. Furthermore, their hats. were polled down over their eyes, having so adjusted their headgear in ‘such fashion while im the machine. ‘The cashier took the booking agents to be of African descent and informed them that the seats on the first floor were all sold out. Seats forthe balcony were parchased. but when Messers. Hénneasy and Blondell entered the thea- tre they noted that there were many seats vacant in the orchestra. They ‘became very much incensed, and were threatened with eviction by ‘the private ofcer. Then went to the box officc aed asked why they were not sold seats for downstairs. The information was handed out to them that colored people were only sold seats on the sec- ond floor. 5 This piece of information made the Booking agents more amery and the) demanded that they be shows the man- , who came forward with mock dgaky and wha ous very Saporiont f his bearing. When the visitors dis closed their identity excitemeat was great in the vicinity of the box office aad they were offered box seats.

Here ix amother instance showing what the management: of the Lafayctt ‘Theatre is trying to de im a colores community, and ferthermore, is getting away with it. If you want to find out bow moc! harm has been occasioned by the John s0n-Camerom incident ask the colores performer.

Even the whit critics were speaking complimentary o the show, and prospects for a big sea son were bright Business has falle Off since the pugitist got into trouble and now the managers of a number o houses have seen fit to cancel the show’ heoking, giving as a reason that i ‘would not be wise to play the calore: company while the whites were in thei present ‘mood.

On: pumber ef. the smalicr vaadeville cir cuits im the cast the managers hav given notice that they wifl be smabk to wse colored acts for some time.

Fie should have fair play, and the race should see that he gets it. But bow different things would be if Johason would have been discreet as to his movements? Oftimes it is not 30 much what you do as bow you do it. After all it may be that we expected too much of the champion, for he was wont to shine for his physical prowess and not as an ‘example of mental de- velopment. Yet the race has been put in a peculiar position by the Caucasian who, while not regarding us seriously expects so much of us. The inconsis- tency of the white man is once more shown on the race question when he makes a pugilist the’standard-bearer of the race, and thea expects him to live up to a standard observed by persons of more than ordinary mental parts. So when the pugilist does not come up to expectations the entire race is con- demned. The race is going to be more con- siderate of Johnson than he was of its members. Performers and others have been greatly, inconvenienced by his g9- torious conduct, but there is not dhe who does not want to see frim get a tair trial, and every effort will be made to have justice prevail.
