WALTERSOFFERED LIBERIAN POST Ared P. Moore Designs and Will Give Time to Business Interests WILL PROBABLY ACCEPT Mishap Walters, Regarded as Negro Democrat, New Appointment Under Advice GLOOMY PROSPECTS AHEAD Colored Democrats Not Closed by Recent Developments and New Beliefs They Will Love Mobilization. Washington, D. C., April 9.—It has been announced in political circles here that the post of Minister to Liberia, made vacant by the resignation of Fred R. Moore, has been tendered Bishop Alexander Walkers, who has the appointment under advice and will most likely accept. Last week Mr. Moore forwarded his resignation to the State Department, as he desires to give his time to his business interests. It is said that Bishop Walkers was immediately sent for by President Wilson and offered the ministership to Liberia. As Bishop Walkers, who is regarded as the biggest Negro Democrat in the country, was not offered the appointment to Haiti, many colored Democrats who have become skeptical as to the consideration to be expected of Wilson during his administration, put more credence in the rumor that a white man would be appointed. There were many applicants to succeed Minister Moore, who was appointed by Taft last January, and who must be of former union or of Company J. Frank Warner and Frank Warner were among the applicants most favorably spoken of. Since it has become known that Bishop Walkers is likely to go to Liberia if he so desires, there has been much waiting and grazing of teeth. Other colored Democrats who are applicants for positions under the present administration are now in bad humor, as they take it that if their spokeman accepts the Libertian post; their chances of receiving favorable consideration are remote. Already colored Republican politicians are saying to their Democratic brethren: "I told you so." PASSED AS A NEGRO Special to THE NEW YORK ACADEMIC MEMPHIS, Tenn., April 8—To escape a prison sentence C. H. Hok, of Kansas City, passed himself as a Negro for six years before he was identified here. Six years ago he was given a sentence of four years on an assault charge. He served six months, was paroled and immediately dropped out of sight. He went to Trenton, Tenn., where the police say he paused as one of the leading Negro residents of the town. He came to Memphis and held up a Negro for $200, which resulted in his identification. LANEY LEAGUE ENTERTAINING.

MOORE, of the Teachers' College of Health and University, Washington, D.C., in an important report to President S. M. BROWN, D. R., concerning the distribution of the educational resources of the Teachers' College Class of 1912 reports an increasing demand in the public schools for professionally trained teachers. He says that the "minimum" which has come to southern education through the James Fund, the Slater Fund, and other gifts to education, has put additional emphasis upon the importance of thoroughly equipped teachers throughout the South, and especially in the colored schools. The demand for trained teachers in special academic subjects and in the Manual and Domestic Arts has been especially pressing. Of the 213 students who have been graduated from the Teachers' College in the last twelve years, more than 150 have directly into the work of teaching. The list of graduates of class 1912 follows: Miles W. Connor, A. M., professor of pedagogy, State Normal School, Patterson, Va.; Jean Hamilton, A.

ODD FELLOWS BUILDING DEDICATED AT ATLANTA Special to THE NEW YORK ACE ATLANTA, Ga., April 8—Tuesday evening. April I. was a great night with the Negro Odd Fellows in this town, the formal opening and dedication of the Odd Fellows Temple, 200 Auburn avenue, being held on that evening, at the Bethel A. M. E. Church, Auburn avenue and Butler street. The building was erected at a cost of $110,000, and every penny has been paid. There are forty-two office rooms in the building and every office has been rented and is occupied by Negro professional staff. It was erected by a Negro contri- tor. R. E. Pharrow, with Negro workmen. Besides the office rooms there are six fine stores and six lodge rooms. The building is of concrete with pressed face, and the interior finish is of white marble. It is five stories high, not including the basement. Bishop J. S. Flipper was the master of ceremonies, and addresses were de- livered by Dr. Wm. F. Penn, the Rev. E. R. Carter, D. D.; C. C. Cater, the Rev. P. James Bryant, Jackson Mc- Henry, Dr. W. A. Fountain, Henry Lac- hom Johnson, Mrs. L. P. Fortune, Dr. H. R. Butler, C. W. Hill, and S. Ingram, district grand master Music was presented the choice of Bethel A. S. C. Church, Atlanta Baptist College orphanment, Mrs. L. H. Lofgren, and Sidney Woodward. The building committee consisted of Dr. W. F. Penn, chairman; W. T. Gibson, B. J. Davis, S. Cunningham, and William Driskell. At the conclusion of the exercises the building was thrown open for inspection, and it is estimated that fully 20,000 people passed through the building. The Odd Fellows of this State own more than $120,000 in investments in benefits to windows and ceilings, it has housed memorials for 5,000 with which to buy homes, build houses and go into homes. Although two bills were introduced in the Legislature last week, one providing for the equipment of a colored regiment and the other a colored battalion, to become a part of the State militia, members of the Equity Congress who have been industriously working for months to get, either a regiment or a battalion, do not feel exhaustive over the prospects. It is said that the playing of the possibility of either bill being passed. Senator Henry Salam of the Nineteenth Senatorial District, introduced a bill providing for a colored battalion, while Assemblyman Tom Kane of the Twenty-first Assembly District introduced a bill favoring the organization of a colored regiment. Assemblingman Kane, a Democrat, introduced his bill after Senator Salam, a Progressive, had presented his measure. Senator Salam's bill follows: An Act—To amend the military trust equipment of a colored battalion in the City of New York. Section 1—Article two of chapter forty-one of the laws of nineteen hundred and nine, entitled "An act in relation to the militia, constituting chapter thirty-six of the constitution, laws in many states, and thereof of a new section to be section forty, so read as follows: Colored battalion of infantry. Within three months after the section takes effect, the adjutant-general shall organize and equate a battalion of New York with a City of New York, such battalion when organized and equipped shall become a part of the National Guard of the State of New York, and subject to all the statutes, laws and regulations of the State of New York and to acquisition by the government subject to the provisions of this chapter, in relation to eligibility and commissioning of such battalion and City of New York shall provide quarters for such battalion and, subject to the approval of the commissioners of the sinking fund, such board may acquire a site for a separate armory for such battalion, and cause such armory to be erected thereon as provided by this chapter. This act shall take effect immediately. The consensus of opinion is that with both bills in the Legislature neither will become a law. FIGHT ON SMALLS. INVITED TO THE NEW YORK ACADEMY WASHINGTON, D.

NEWPORT News, Va., April 8.—The Negro Protective League held a very enthusiastic and largely attended meeting at the law office of Attorney E. J. Graham, Jr., last week. The league was one recently organized for the protection of Negroes in their civil and political rights, for their moral and intellectual advancement. The league resolved to vote as a unit on all matters affecting their common interests, and coined berewth they simultaneously agreed on nearly every matter that was presented. A very hot discussion ensued over the league's indemnity of a colored man for city committeeman from the second ward.

After Miss Maude John Taylor, 20 W. 50th street, had several visits to Tux Amt office in which she voluntarily made serious charges against James H. Anderson, further charging that she had insisted him provide evidence against him, asking that he be compelled to support her four-month sentence, an article was published in the Tuesday Tux Amt of March 20, setting forth the charges preferred against Anderson, which are a number of court records. The following work Anderson accused Tux Amt of doing him an injustice in the arrest and the issue of Tux Amt of April 13, to show that there had been no no answer to court records in the case, together with cases of original letters which Anderson had sent to Miss Taylor were published. In his attempt to make the public think that there was no truth in the article appearing in Tux Amt about him, Anderson, in last year's issue of his paper, reported to publication and musician slander by publishing false statements which he will be compelled to prove or stand the conspiracy. The following letters have been forwarded by Fred R. Bance to James H. Anderson and Commissioner R. S. King, respectively: New York City, April 7, 1912. Mr. James H. Anderson. Neither you nor any other man shall allege by innuendo or otherwise anything reflecting on the orme, and I hold you to strict accuse. You will either make good what you have said or be ready to take the consequences. What The New York Age has published about you are matters of court record and can be verified by anyone going to the Special Seminar on the Law of Ordeals written by you and The Age has stated facts which cannot be contradicted. The records of the court allege that you are the father of the child of Miss Taylor and you were arrested and brought to trial because of that of $300 for appearance in this case. You cannot deny or disprove this as the records are there. I shall expect an immediate reply to this communication. You're respectfully (Signed) FRED R. MOORE. (Bigned) FRED R. MOORE. New York City. April 7, 1912. Mr. R. S. King. Attorney and Counselor-at-Law, Brooklyn, N. Y. Dear Sir: The Amsterdam News of Friday, April 11, contains a copy of the proceedings on the part of my wife, Ida L. Moore, enjoining the sheriff of Kings County from selling an advertised house number 14 Dougstam street. I am surprised that any report of the landlord himself to international journalism and label by giving out to a newspaper court paper, not filed of record, after an agreement had been entered into whereby the whole matter was adjusted. The original complaint is in the hands of Mr. Smith, and the sheriff's copy was not shown to anyone, so that the only way the Amsterdam News got a copy of the complaint, in the action was through you. You will remember that I called you the 'phone to find out why you had not notified the sheriff that the matter had been maturit- tarily adjusted between you and Mr. Smith, representing my wife, and I further told you that the (Conti: med on Page 2 The most brilliant social affair of the season was the Bachelor-Benedict's Assembly, given at Lenox Casino, Lenox avenue and 125th street, Friday evening, April 4.

Hall, Miss Breckenridge, Dr. Bentley and Judge Brown, held a meeting this week for the purpose of deciding what action should be taken with reference to the LaSalle Hotel which refused to serve a luncheon to the Chicago Women's Clubs on account of the presence of Mrs. Ida Wells Barnett and other colored women. The situation was gone over from every point of view. Mrs. Barnett, around whom the refusal on the part of the colored people seemed to center, did not attend the meeting, although she was especially invited. It seems Mrs. Barnett has plans of her own which she is going to put in operation against the hotel people. After reviewing the whole situation calmly, it was decided at the meeting that it was very questionable whether a case in court would hold against the LaSalle Hotel, but a strong committee was appointed to take up the whole matter of discrimination with the LaSalle Hotel people with a view of seeing if such influence cannot be brought to bear upon the hotel to make the hotel discriminatory. White Women Divided or Behinder Your correspondent has sought to get the inside particulars regarding the attitude among the club women themselves, and he has discovered that the club women (white) are very much divided on the subject. Some are inclined to take the matter into the court, others are inclined to let the matter drop, and still a third contingent seems favorable to the plan of ceasing to invite colored women to attend such functions. It is feared that the majority of white women in Chicago are poised to keep up their fight much longer, and that the policy of not inviting colored women to hotels where a lunch is to be served will be followed. On Tuesday night following the women's episode at the Hotel LaSalle, the Chicago alumni of the University of Michigan held a banquet at the Hotel LaSalle. It was hoped that the audience would attend the University of Michigan reading in Chicago would have attended, there, accompanying the nature of color discrimination more closely before the public and the hotel people, but it seems that none of the colored graduates appeared at the luncheon, although invited the same as the white graduates were. SAYS THAT DETECTIVES CAUSED NEGRO'S DEATH White Citizens Writes to Mayor, District Attorney Whitman and Police Commissioner Waldo of Brutal Assault A white citizen, who does not wish his name made public, has written a letter to Mayor Gaynor, District A- torney Whitman and Police Commis- sioner Waldo in which he tells of a prent assault made upon an unofficial Negro by two detectives. According to the writer of the letter, the victim was so violently assaulted that he died of his injuries. Not a line in the daily papers has been published about the death of the Negro. A copy of the letter sent to Mayor Gaynor, District Attorney Whitman and Police Commissioner Waldo, respectively, follows: New York City, N. Y. April 4, 1913. Hon. William J. Gaylor, Mayor. Hon. Charles S. Whitman. An investigation should be made forthwith of the following facts. On Saturday evening last, April 5, 1913, about 9 o'clock two detectives in civilian clothes, attached to the New York Police force violently assaulted and so severely beat a colored man, and dragged him to the 32nd street to the 22nd Precinct Police Station (one block away), that from mild injuries he received the mild colored man died. No article has yet appeared in any of the newspapers regarding this occurrence which almost culminated in the murder of some five hundred people who witnessed the brutal and inhumane treatment of this small colored man at the hands of whom they were given two feet tall. When citizens attempted to demonstrate with solid detectives they drew their revolvers and threatened to kill any one who intervened. I am informed that the demand was a total stranger in the neighborhood, and was not even the order for which investigation has some charmer of bravery made by a child against some colored women in the neighborhood, dramatic for the As the result of charges published in True Act that Negro patients were being discriminated against at the Harlem Hospital, located on Lenox avenue between 136th and 137th streets, Mayor Gaynor has ordered that conditions at the hospital be thoroughly investigated. The first hearing was held Monday at the office of the Commissioner of Accounts, 220 Broadway. The hearing was set for 11 o'clock. Commissioner J. T. Mahoney stated that Mayor Gaynor's attention had been directed to the article in True Act which told of the Arawine of the color line at the Harlem Hospital, and that the city's chief executive had given instructions that steps be taken to ascertain if there was any truth in the charges. A copy of True Act was put in evidence at Monday morning's hearing, and Letter A. Walton, of True Act, was the first witness called. He told of the information he had secured upon personal The next witness was Dr. P. A. Johnson, who gave some valuable testimony. An adjustment for the day was then taken and subpoenaes were issued for the leading colored physicians of the city, who will be ordered to tell what they know about the mistreatment of Negroes at the Harlem Hospital. Mrs. Julia Moore to Testify. A subpoena has been issued for the appearance before the Commissioner of Accounts of Mrs. Julia Moore, 100-122 West 139th street, who charges that her daughter was neglected for six weeks while a patient at the Harlem Hospital. Mrs. Moore asserts that the attendants did not even wash the face of her daughter, Mrs. Farnie Auld. Because of the injury to her spine Mrs. Auld was unable to move and the attendants, during the period of her stay in the hospital, says Mrs. Moore did not even turn her over. Narcotics were continually given her and the result was that Mrs. Auld was constantly in a state of semi-unconsciousness. The only change in her position would be the propping up of her shoulders on pillows furnished by her mother. From faxing six weeks or more in one position bedsores were formed, and Mrs. Moore told a representative of The Act that a bedsores the base of Mrs. Auld's spine was large enough to put in place, that more than four of cotton gauze were taken from the sore, and that six to eight inches of the backbone were visible. Because of the neglect from which Mrs. Auld suffered at the hospital her mother moved her back home, at her apartments in the Arizona, 109-102 West 190th street, and hired a trained nurse to look after her. Mrs. Auld was taken home Thursday, February 27, and died Thursday, March 13. Besides the bedside at home of the spine, neglect had caused the flesh on the knees of Mrs. Auld's feet to decompose and drop off. LET OUT COLORED GIRLS. Last Sunday evening, the colored female ushers at the Palace Theatre were given their weekly salary and informed that their services were no longer required. White male ushers were put to work in their places Monday. Fifteen colored girls lost jobs in the shake-up only one was remained, who is in the chuck room. She was put to work at the instance of the local Industrial Committee. It is said that a change was made because the management and exceptions to the actions of one or two of the young promen. Moreover, but Tuesday, the request was expressed that white male ushers were substituted as they were not giving satisfaction. : oe IRE” , Washington Makes Assertion After Visiting Pacific, - .

In his sympathy for the Negro's educational uplift he stands in the high chass with the late Mr. William H. Baldwin, Jr., and with Mr. Robert C. Ogden, Mr. Oswald Garrison Villard, Mr. Andrew Carnegie and Mr. George Foster Peabody. As editor of the Atlantic Monthly and then of The World's Work, Mr. Page has been in a position to promote the work in the most helpful way. Like Mr. Peabody, Mr. Page is a Southern man, born in North Carolina in 1855, but his newspaper and magazine work has been done for the most part in Boston and New York; but both of them have been great powers of light and leading in the work of Negro uplift. But Mr. Page has also been sympathetic and helpful to the Negro in another and quite unusual way. As an editor and publisher he has had an open mind to the literary efforts of Negroes. If the work was good it has been acceptable to him, and he has not only used it, but given it prominence in the magazine and book form. By his open mind in this matter he has disposed other editors and publishers to be more sympathetic. Only those Negroes who have tried to do so know how hard it is to break into the magazines with articles and poems and into the publishing houses with books. "Declined with thanks" is a cold-blooded visitor from such that has chilled to the marrow thousands of young and old hopes that have died in the flower. And the Negro writer of the best and the most ordinary sort has very slim chance with the editors of the great newspapers or magazines unless he writes about the Negro and says what they think he should say about him. The Ace congratulates Mr. Page upon the great honor conferred upon him by the President. CHARACTER BASIS OF SUCCESS Every epoch of family or national existence produces a group of men who dominate the whole in whatever is thought and done, whether the group be a family of ten members or a nation of one hundred million inhabitants. In the larger and in the smaller there will always be one who is put forward, or who puts himself forward, as the chief of his group. This exceptional person will represent all that is highest and best or lowest and worst in his group or his nation. Often this person is of obscure parentage and limited preparation for the work to be done. It was that way with President Lincoln and General Grant; it was that way with Frederick Douglass and Harriet Tubman. When the opportunity came they were ready to embrace it and to make the most of it. How they got the preparation is often more pathetically tragical than what they did with the opportunity that ground them to dust in making the most of it. In the group of bankers whose education was got in the experiences immediately before and during the slave-holderd war, in which the names of It has been the misfortune of those who under history that they were incompetent to write history. Many such men have undertaken to do so, but the moment they deviated from the bare statement of facts and undertake to explain them they become special plausion, seeking to warp the facts to justify their conduct, their selfish purposes. Those persons have had the greatest success as the historians of their own times and acts who have been content to state the facts and leave to others the explanation of them. This comes about by the constitutional weakness of mankind generally to judge themselves and conduct, in any given time and transaction, without prejudice to themselves. The thief is never ready to explain the theft but is ever ready to justify the thief. As it is with the individual so it is with large masses of men who work together for a common purpose; they think they are right when doing the wrong, and after they have done it they often spend a long lifetime, out of jail or in it, trying to prove that they were right. There is never any justification for falsehood in words or wrong-doing in acts. They are conceived in error, brought forth in falsehood and executed in selfish disregard of the rights of others. When called to account the guilty invariably plead some variations of the Baby act. They seldom acknowledge the wrong and hang themselves in remorse, as Judas Iscariot did. The Aftermath of Slavery. have a common example of this distorted attitude in their acts in a discussion of the Reconstruction. All of the Atlanta Constitution, Col. Hilary A. Murray of the Navy in the second administration, and former Senator George F. Edmunds on the number of the Century Illustrated Monthly Magazine for an honest person familiar with the facts of the Reconstruction period, to read Mr. Howe, aborted defense of those who brought on the Reconstruction policy a failure, and the day course in both cases by sacrificing truth, and by berating and vilifying the helpless Man lived in the fearful tragedy of war and traumatize finish it was a white man's controversy, wants to freedom as a slave on the one hand, exists in his manhood and citizenship as a free bone of contention. The Negro slave did the insolent slave master did it. If the Negroers to whip the Confederates on the field of battle the Union cause in the corn and cotton fields, without which the Confederates on battle array as long as they did. Neither Man has a word of reference to this vital fact is unmatched in the various history of barbary mind. The Negro slave protected his master the Confederate soldiers in the field. He had to do nothing of the sort. We have a common example of this distorted attitude of wrong-doers to their acts in a discussion of the Reconstruction period by Mr. Clark Howell of the Atlanta Constitution, Col. Hilary A. Hegbert, who was Secretary of the Navy in the second administration of President Cleveland, and former Senator George F. Edmunds of Vermont, in the April number of the Century Illustrated Monthly Magazine. It is impossible for an honest person familiar with the facts as to the Civil War and the Reconstruction period, to read Mr. Howell's and Col. Herbert's labored defense of those who brought on the war and those who made the Reconstruction policy a failure, and the dismal effort to justify their course in both cases by sacrificing truth and parading falsehood, and by beating and vilifying the helpless Negro and the part he played in the fearful tragedy of war and travesty of peace. From start to finish it was a white man's controversy, with the Negro and his rights to freedom as a slave on the one hand, and his rights to protection in his manhood and citizenship as a free man on the other, as the bone of contention. The Negro slave did not provoke the war; the insolent slave master did it. If the Negro helped the Union soldiers to whip the Confederates on the field of battle he helped to weaken the Union cause in the corn and cotton fields by raising the needful supplies, without which the Confederates could not have remained in battle array as long as they did. Neither Mr. Howell or Col. Herbert has a word of reference to this vital fact. Ingratitude such as that is unmatched in the various history of barbarism and civilized mankind. The Negro slave protected his master's family at home and fed the Confederate soldiers in the field. He had to do so, they say. He had to do nothing of the sort. Cotton Rebuilt the South. Howell pictures the prostrate condition of the Saints and ink for tears, so that the picture is put in drawn from the late Henry W. Grady's Rhine. In Mr. Howell's picture, the effort to rebut the South contains no statement of the Nuns only "the demoralized, in some cases insoluble is admitted that cotton played the leading part of the South and is not admitted that the Nuns then as he is now in the production ofunion seems to be that it is hard to find a friend," although the invariable record is that rosequious for their own good; while our opinion that the average Southern white man is now but to white men as well, their bearing as lordly as if they were made out of diatom mud, like other white people. Mr. Howell pictures the prostrate condition of the South with his eyes for ducts and ink for tears, so that the picture is pathetic enough to have been drawn from the late Henry W. Grady's Rhetorical Fount of Hysteria. In Mr. Howell's picture, the effort to rebuild the wounded fortunes of the South contains no statement of the Negro's helpful part; he was only "the demoralized, in some cases insolent, Negroes," although it is admitted that cotton played the leading part in the rehabilitation of the South and is not admitted that the Negro was the main reliance then as he is now in the production of cotton. Mr. Howell's opinion seems to be that it is hard to find a free Negro who is not "insolent," although the invariable record is that they are too infernally obsequious for their own good; while our opinion does not seem but is that the average Southern white man is not only insolent to Negroes but to white men as well, their bearing toward one another being as lordly as if they were made out of diamond dust instead of common mud, like other white people. Was the Reconstruction Policy Wrong? well condemns the Reconstruction policy, but the free Negroes over to their former masters Andrew Johnson, some of the horrors of which view, are recited by General John Eaton, it, Lincoln and the Freedmen." General Eaton of looking after the Freedmen, under the General Grant. Naturally, Mr. Howell says, the now generally admitted unwise enfranchise while Col. Herbert says: "The Negro and the whites to forget their animosities and civilization. Hence the Solid South." The Southern whites refused to treat the free and all of the opportunity to do so under Peru thus making the Reconstruction policy inevitable to take part in the reorganization under that policy but doing all that they could orderly workings of it, finally overturning the Negro cradle and the grave. But whenment was unwise" and provoked the chaos asked themselves in the effort to make it appeal Clark Howell and Hilary A. Herbert—writethe facts to justify their works which rise upry and condemn them! Mr. Howell condemns the Reconstruction policy, but says nothing of turning the free Negroes over to their former masters by the policy of President Andrew Johnson, some of the horrors of which, from the labor point of view, are recited by General John Eaton, in his valuable work, "Grant, Lincoln and the Freedmen." General Eaton had charge of the work of looking after the Freedmen, under the sympathetic direction of General Grant. Naturally, Mr. Howell says, "chaos" was "wrought by the now generally admitted unwise enfranchisement of the Negro"; while Col. Herbert says: "The Negro and carpet bagger had compelled the whites to forget their animosities and come together to save their civilization. Hence the Solid South." The true statement is that the Southern whites refused to treat the free Negro fairly, when they had all of the opportunity to do so under President Johnson's policy, thus making the Reconstruction policy inevitable, and then not only in refusing to take part in the reorganization and control of the States under that policy but doing all that they could to hinder and abstract the orderly workings of it, finally overturning it by savage warfare on the Negro cradle and the grave. But who admits that "enfranchisement was unwise" and provoked the chaos the Southern whites provoked themselves in the effort to make it appear "unwise"? Such men as Clark Howell and Hilary A. Herbert—wrong-doers appealing from the facts to justify their works which rise up in the judgment of history and condemn them! Ex-Senator George F. Edmunds. now eighty-five years old, who served in the answers Mr. Howell and Col. Herbert, in the ry, as follows: Institutional amendments and reconstruction and on degrees as the best measures available in the cation. These measures were not measured before the last issue of that nothing better could have been done, and that should have been omitted. I am not unmindful of the Constitution has, so far, almost no purpose. But it stands an indestructible monu and an ever-lighted beacon of hope and encourage every country on the globe." of Vermont, now eighty-five years old, who served in the Senate from 1866 to 1891, answers Mr. Howell and Col. Herbert, in the same issue of The Century, as follows: "The Constitutional amendments and reconstruction and other laws were passed by Congress as the best measures available in the complicated and unteachable situation. These measures were not measures of cruelty or injustice, but of the best possible means of ensuring your consent to me that nothing better could have been done, and that nothing done by Congress should have been omitted. I am not unmindful that the Fifteenth Amendment of the Constitution has, so far, almost entirely failed to purge the purpose of the unstructible monument of liberty and equality and to ever-lighten beacon hope and encouragement to the impressed of every country on the globe."

Such master men are always in any age. In his recent testimony before the Palo Commission Mr. Morgan emphatically denied that "commercial credits are handed upon the possession of money or property." "Not air; the first thing is character—before money or anything." Mr. Morgan decribed, and experience hours him out. It is well for mankind that it does, and in an accentuated sense for the young Negro, who has to face the world empty handed and often without the scholastic training most needed for material success. If he has character he will inspire confidence of others in him—that entire faith may be placed in his word and that he can be depended upon to do well the thing he promises, whether it be a small or big thing—and his success becomes only a matter of time and persistence. Great men die in vain if no useful, helpful lesson can be learned from their lives. Mr. Morgan had character; he was a patriot, every inch, who loved his country; and he mastered the thing in hand, whatever the nature of it. His life teaches us those lessons. NEGRO PROBLEM NOSTRUMS Dr. Booker T. Washington has an article in The Independent for March 20 on "Solving the Negro Problem in Detail." He says he receives many letters, books and pamphlets "m which someone has tried to formulate a solution of the race question." The difficulty, he says, with most of the solutions is that they "start out with the notion that the Negro problem is a fixed quantity, always and everywhere the same, like a problem in arithmetic, to be solved once and for all." How, then? He says: "The trouble in this case is that, like other human problems, the race problem is one in which the terms are not fixed and cannot, therefore, be brought into the shape of a hard and fast formula." What, then? He says: "I have long ago given up the notion of solving the race problem wholesale. It seems to be rather that it can only be solved in detail." He is, therefore, "interested in the progress of the individual Negro quite as much as in the progress of the"—race as a whole. Dr. Washington then proceeds to state the facts in the business success of the Elbridge Brothers, at Uniontown, Ala., who do wholesale grocery business of $40,000 per annum, and of Watt Terry of Brockton, Mass., who, beginning with wages of $7 a week twelve years ago, now owns 222 buildings and has $7,000 a week income from them. These examples of success are more interesting to Elbridge Brothers and Watt Terry than to others, as most people are, and naturally, more interested in their own successes than in those of others; however, the examples, like all others good or bad, exercise a certain influence upon those who are in immediate touch with them of have them called to their attention by verbal or written statement. It is in this way that the National Negro Business League has been able to exercise such a great influence during the past fourteen years in stimulating the business attitude of mind and development of the Negro. People who are willing and anxious to learn of others and their successes invariably do better than those who proceed upon the theory that they know it all and are sufficient unto themselves. No, the Negro problem cannot be solved wholesale; it must be solved in detail. Until the details become numerous enough to make a wholesale estimate possible there will be a small army of people seeking to solve it and neglecting their own personal problem in doing so. Take the new Senator from Mississippi, James Kirkman Vardaman, as a provoking example of such solvers. He has introduced a measure in the Senate to separate the races on the street railways of Washington, and announced that he has in stock a whole cargo of separation bills that he will introduce as he moves along. He should solve the riddle of Benjamin Ryan Tillman of South Carolina, whose place as a "race problem solver" he aspires to take, as applicable to himself. Senator Tillman is dead in his place—paralyzed as to his limbs, added as to his mentality, and childish as to his whims, his devil's pitchfork useless in his voice for confusion now become senile whines! Senator James Kirkman Vardaman may go out by the same way. The unusual number of the first letter of the alphabet in his name is a sign of so much. It is a truth for his sort to consider more than they have done, from 1620 to the present time, that no good has come to any of those of him and the South who have systematically persecuted "the children of the Lord"—those who are always least and most helpless in the midst of any people of all nations, and that none will ever come to them while they persist in the persecution of them. The valdictorians of 1913 will soon begin to wave their tongues and arms in the air "to the delight of crowded houses of their parents and friends." The world is very fair to look upon from school commencement windows at 16 and 23; at 65 and 35 the look is not the same. IN A personal letter to the writer, Mr. John W. Calloway, of Miami, Philippines Lolinda a visual reader of The Ace who has a long record of army service and of Philippines civil service of many years, says the statement that the Philippines people are prejudiced against Negro soldiers, as published in the news outlines of The Ace of December 26, 1912, is not true. Far from being so, they have shown in all possible ways in the past that they are not, and are now showing it. They show it very demonstratively in all athletic contests between white and black soldiers, in which they prefer the latter invariably to the former in the betting. Especially is this the case in boxing contests. He thinks that Negro boxers and theatrical people of the clean sort would have great success in Japan and the Philippines, but "they must be artists, every inch, and clean," he says. Only small companies are needed, as there are plenty of orchestras, the Filipinos being a very musical people. "I want you to say something on my authority," says Mr. Calloway, "to our people, that they lay too great a stress on their weaknesses; that they are thought better of outside the United States than they think of themselves." We think this to be true from our experience in the Far East—in Japan, China, the Philippines and India—but it is far from being true in Australia, white Africa and Europe, with the exception of France and Russia and Asia. Wherever the English language has penetrated and got a foothold in the past twenty-five years race prejudice has grown by leaps and bounds, so that even in European Africa the Negro is, regarded and treated as a stranger in his own land. Where the thing will end is not clear to those who hope the best for the Negro people. We should teach the Spanish language more generally in all of our colleges and universities, so that our young men and women could distribute themselves more and more in the Latin American States, where there is little race prejudice and many opportunities now not opened to them in their country. POINTING OUT THE WAY. Negroes who spend much of their time in theorizing as to which is the more beneficial to the race, higher or industrial education, should cease giving their views on the subject long enough to read in last week's issue of The Ace about the Standard Life Insurance Company. This concern has been organized in Atlanta, Georgia, by Southern Negroes, and $100,000 has been deposited in registered municipal bonds with the State Treasurer. All requirements demanded of a full legal reserve life insurance company have been complied with. The company has been formed to write insurance on the lives of Negro risks exclusively. The officers and directors are Negroes, and President H. E. Perry says that over $400,000 in applications are now waiting to be passed upon. The Negro is arranging to celebrate the fiftieth anniversary of the issuance of the Emancipation Proclamation by Abrham Lincoln; yet within fifty years after the shackles of slavery had been removed from the black man he is able to boast of a business institution which has deposited $100,000 in registered bonds in the State. Treasury of the State of Georgia. Surely this is a noteworthy accomplishment, one which should inspire even the most pessimistic. The Standard Life Insurance Company should serve as an object lesson to Negroes who are seeking to solve the race problem by attacking those who are doing things instead of theorizing. With more representative business institutions as the Standard Life Insurance Company ambitious young Negro professional men will be given a better chance to earn a livelihood. The company will be in a position to employ Negroes as legal advisers and representatives at a yearly salary. Capable physicians will be associated with the company as medical examiners, and they, too, will be well paid for their services. The Standard Life Insurance Company, however, will be unable to put on its pay rolls hundreds of young professional men who are out of work and who will apply for positions, which causes us to remark that good judgment should be exercised in educating our young men and women. It is commendable to aspire to do great things, but why spend hours and hours, days and days, weeks and weeks, months and months, years and years, striving to make a success in an avenue of endeavor where the opportunities are limited and rank failure is inevitable. It is far better to be practical and aim to reach a goal where there is some probability of meeting with success. Even a successful bootblack who earns, enough money to buy a home and who contributes something to society is given more respectful consideration than a professional man who borrows from everyone touched by his pitiful plea for assistance on the grounds that adverse conditions have made it difficult for him to be come intimately associated with the dollar. The new management system will women and will still sell oil and more so the years will end but the contract should be regulated by the law of supply and demand and validity and ambition. When the Negro business man of a producer and loss of a consumer, when business concerns on the order of the Standard Life Insurance Company flourish in many sections of the United States then the door of opportunity will swing open wider for the Negro in the professions. The bright future in store for the Negro professional man and woman can be surmised from the rise of the Negro physician. Within the past decade he has rapidly come into his own, due to more roatee conditions, for his people have more confidence in him. Those who are sincerely concerned in the progress of the Negro, but who have developed a habit of compulsining and lamenting, yet who never offer any practical solution whereby conditions might be bettered, should adopt the constructive policy of the members of the Standard Life Insurance Company—do something; for they must learn sooner or later that the problems confronting the Negro are to be solved primarily by the Negro himself, assisted, of course, by public-spirited white citizens, and that playing the baby act retards, rather than aids, our progress.

COLORED WOMAN'S LETTER TABBORED (BY MAY MARTEL) The following letter was sent to The New York Times by a colored woman, but was not published. It was called forth by the "high and mighty" attendant of that paper on the civilization of Mexico. The brand in the U. S. A. is tooicient for a colored American, the chief sufferer, to allow the whites to forget. The Times however, did not reish the facts, which is usually the case with that paper on the color question, and the letter was tabbed. You and the two New York Times: Referring to the addition in today's Times concerning Mexico's civilization, I wish to say that I am not a defender of Mexico's barbariety, but I think the citizens of the U. S. A. should refrain from comment along this line for fear of being called inconsistent. Just a few months ago the inhabitants of Contville, Fla., saturated a black man with a killer veneer all and banded his body in a What sort of his charred, remains was distributed on savannas. What did this country with all of its civilization do about it? Practically nothing. About six months ago at Vienna, Oa, a mob of white men took a colored woman and strung her alive to a tree where a speeches was drawn around her neck until she was dead. According to Tennessean, public opinion, so subtle there was, outward expression of it, was in favor of the lynchmen. In Livermore, Ky., a few months back, a Negro "was stied hard and fast at the center of the stage in the local theatre, the lights were all turned on, then the good citizens of the town proceeded to perforate him with many bullets from rifles and revolvers. Only those were allowed to participate in the shooting who were willing to pay, etc. Incidentally, it may be mentioned the Negro was not lynched for the shooting (The N. Y. Tennessean). According to Tennessean, lynched in Lyrtia, La, because he couldn't pay a debt of 110. When the white man's friends attempted to whip him he resisted and was lynched. The State of South Carolina is trying to legalise lynching. All this, and more, in a civilized country. Heaven's sake, my dear sir, don't make the U. B. A. the laughing stock of other countries by commenting on their lack of civilization when our own is so pitiful deficient. RALEIGH, M. C. RALLEY, N.

Merron Trotter, the editor of The Guardian, before the Mus-Se-Laik Club. The Washington correspondent as usual proceeds to attempt to show that Trotter would not and obeyer be trusted by Kelly Miller in his talks before the club. Those who were present know, of course, that the statement is not as all true and particularly unfair it that any such headline should be used in the editor's own paper to the offence "Trotter Blamed Miller." The article proceeds to show that Prod. Naval H. Thomas of the High School, of the city, followed in a ring the such headline, and the race everywhere "to hold up the hands of this man and of his associates in the work they are doing." Now, the particular work to which Trotter and his associates have been devoting themselves is the attempts at tearing down of the work which Dr. Boocher T. Washington has been trying to do for the race in the hearth of the war. If it is remembered light neither Prof. Thomas nor Trotter has ever been. The article proceeds to say that Prof. Thomas named Mr. Trotter and Dr. DaBois as the chief expents of the work above referred to. It may be interesting, under these circumstances, to chronicle the fact that Prof. Naval H. Theimarks the brother of Harry E. Theimarks the brother of Dr. Washington's office for five or six years. He is the brother-in-law of D. A. Williston, nee Miss E. B. Thomas, who was stenographer in Booker T. Washington's office for five or six years. He is the brother-in-law of D. A. Williston, brother of Dr. E. D. Williston of the city who is and was the author of the book in charge of the Department of Landscape Engineering at Tukegee Institute. It would seem that Prof. Newal Thomas could be in better business than seeking to align himself with those men who are trying to tear down the work in which so many of his relaunces from the fact that one of his brothers graduated from Tuskegee Institute that a becoming sense of silence would have been better on the above occasion than the outburst so gleefully reported by the correspondent of The Guardian. Engratitude among Negroes is no matter what it does seem that among our "higher" (?) educated Negroes, the first requisite of "manileness" is that they shall cultivate a spirit of rank engratitude.

AS there are plays and playlets, it follows that there are shows and showlets. The point could be raised that in Harlem a distinction should be made between flats and flatlets by the real estate dealer, instead of always advertising "flats to let." But flats and flatlets, whose speaking of music, do not come under the heading of theatrical talk and are foreign to the subject. This week at the Lafayette Theatre S. Tutt Whitney, J. Homer Tutt, Blanche Thompson and a companylet are giving a tabloid presentation of "His Excellency, the Mayor," the musical comedy in which the Southern Smart Set Company appeared with success throughout the South and Southwest during the season. It has required quite some boiling down to give a connected version of "His Excellency, the Mayor" in but fifty minutes, when it usually takes two hours and a half to give the show. However, in the process of elimination the dialogue and musical numbers have suffered most, for the many quick changes made by principals and chorus make, it apparent that the wardrobe trunks are just as much in demand, as ever. S. Tutt Whitney and J. Homer Tutt have been steadily coming into the public eye. Being young men of intelligence, they realize one cannot make a big reputation in a short time, and their progress has been gradual. For the past two seasons they have been ambitious to make their New York debut, but because of unfavorable conditions have not been able to realize this ambition. Last week while the show was playing at the Howard Theatre, Washington, D. C., arrangements were made for them to come to New York this week and put on a tabloid version of "His Excellency, the Mayor." Although it is doubtful that Mr. Hearst and his papers would be disposed to make any complimentary reference to "His Excellency, the Mayor," or anyone else connected, being on bad terms with Mayor Gaynor, I am glad that I am not compelled to take a similar position. S. Tutt Whitney and J. Homer Tutt have been given an opportunity to demonstrate what they can do in a showlet, and the probabilities are that in the future they will be allowed to make another visit to New York and appear in a full-grown show, when a shrinkage process of their piece will not be necessary. There are some race horses that cover themselves with glory in short-distance races, but don't try to make them cover a mule or over in record-breaking time, for they will disappoint you. But in the case of the Whitney boys and their show they should be able to go the entire route with credit to themselves. S. Tutt Whitney, as Lem Lee, has the leading comedy role to play, which he does to satisfaction. He showed to best advantage in his work as a pantomimist, and he should give more attention to this style of acting. The fact that he is original in his methods and does not imitate other comedians who have succeeded as burnt-cork artists is an agreeable discovery. J. Homer Tutt is bound to make you take notice of him as straight man. He as Ned Johnson sees to it that he never comes on the stage in the same clothes more than once, and is always singing and dancing with the members of the gentler sex. Mr. Tutt gives promise of becoming a nifty straight man, but both in his singing and acting he must acquire more dash and vigor. His methods, at times, are too subdued. This deficiency should be easily overcome. The Whitney boys have a find in Blanche Thompson, who is just entitled to the special mention she receives on the billing. Miss Thompson is a lyric soprano who has had some musical training, and it would not be surprising if she won fame as a singer some day. Her voice is clear and bell-like, and her top notes win admiration. Miss Thompson has a winning personality, which is quite an asset on the stage. The young lady is a cousin of Abbie Mitchell and was also born in Baltimore. A few years ago she joined the Cole and Johnson Company; but tired of the stage after working three weeks in the chorus. Study and experience should develop her greatly. Miss Thompson plays the part of Marie Bellefonte, a rather high-sounding name. Of course we have our Van Nordens, Von Puhlis and Astorblids the same as the whites but somehow Johnson, Jackson and Green seem to fit our colored stage characters better. The playwright usually names his Irish characters Murphy, O'Flaherty and McCarthy, while Eisenstein, Greenburg and Cohen are as a rule associated with Hebrew characters. Although it is true that we, too, have Murphys and Cohens among us, somehow they seem incongruous when connected with colored stage types. The most melodious song in "His Excellency, the Mayor," is "Mexico," sung by Russell Smith, who appears as Pedro. Although Mr. Smith has a tenor voice of much sweetness, it cannot be said that he does the number justice. There is no reason for singing "Mexico" in the same tempo as a dead march is played. Temperament and fire are supposed to be associated with the music typifying all Latin countries. Mr. Smith would not cause hard feelings of he would look out into the audience at least once while singing. Others who aided in making the initial appearance of the Whitehats a success were Frank Jackson, Sam Gardner, Samuel Gray, "Babe" Townsend, Will Dixon, Chares Olden Ethel Marshall, Nettie Tayor, Marie Wayne, Al Strauard, Hattie Akers, Alice Russell, Della Denning, Grace Neff, Ora Dunlap and Josie Graham. In connection with the appearance of the fifty-minute sketch the regular vandeville bill was presented. Allen and Morton were a riot in their turn, re- peating their big success scored at one of the other Harlem theatres several weeks ago. Watch the rise of this clever team! WHERE THE SHOWS ARE. DR.

"The New Sheriff of Arizona" was produced by the Crescent Stock Company the first half of the week. Winfrey and Martin have returned to the Crescent to aid Hunter and Chapelle in the comedy making, and the four comedians, assisted by the other members of the company and plenty of gunpowder, put on a Western playlet in humorous style. Emmett Anthony appears to have come to stay at the Crescent Theatre The first half of the week he appeared in a single turn, making them laugh as usual. Sharp and Sharp returned to the Crescent after several months' absence. The clever little girl in this act is yet likely to be seen on Broadway. FRANKLIN THEATRE Daisy Fleming and her aggregation of acrobatic dancers were a big hit at the Franklin Theatre the first half of the week. The act is composed of two girls and four men, and their dancing is of the cyclonic order. Everybody works hard and everybody wins applause. "Boots" Allen has taken unto himself another business partner in the person of William Scudder, formerly manager of the Alpha Comedy Four. They work well together as a team and "Boots" Russell Allen goes big in his song, "My Friend." Flora Dabney and George Jackson were also entertaining. The Nashville Students, composed of Elenora Wilson and Messrs. Boute and Carter, scored the second half of last week. Miss Wilson has improved in her work since last seen in New York, and she wears a new costume for each number. The young men are exceptional dancers. This act should experience no difficulty getting steady work. JESSE SHIPP AT LAFAYETTE. Commencing next Monday afternoon, Jesse A. Shipp will present at the Lafayette Theatre a farce comedy in two acts, each to consist of twenty minutes, entitled "Soldiers?" He is being assisted by R. C. McPherson.

Performers will have to look to their laurels in the future in order to find a pathway that is strewn with anything more than a shedding of wild flowers and huckleberry leaves. There has been a tendency to weaken the ratio of colored actors playing the stroll but the managers are up a tree in this respect. The colored population wants to see one or two acts on every bill and must have them. So long as The Ace shall retain the present correspondent, the true value of all things theatrical in the Windy City will be accurately but briefly reported. The 'been California Poppies were the chief attraction at the Grand Theatre and their Texas Tommy whirlwind dances won an electrical success. The Three Dancing Mitchells were returned to the Grand not under protest but in defiance of the Pekin Hippodrome management, who repulsed their refusal to go on before an audience of eight on one meager occasion. Billy Caldwell was on the bill at the Hippodrome week of April 3. The Monogram Theatre had Sidney L. Perrin and Goldie Crosby in a family quarrel act that was convincing. Billy Cumby and Mias Letcher appeared in a sketch which showed them up well as versatile dancers. Cumby's song "Our Little War at Home" scored. The Phoenix, Merit and Washington picture theatres all drew well. The April concert season will have Bryant's recital at Olivet April 24.

Our children dance, our people sing, even our soldiers march to ragtime, which is fast becoming a national "Pied, Piper" to whose rhythm the whole country moves. This bizarre and fascinating music with its CLEF (Incorporated) MANHATTAN MAY hide-and-seek of accent has not only swept over the United States, but it has also captured Europe, where it is rightly known as "American Music," and is taken quite seriously as typical of this country. In New York where the commercial and mechanical instinct pervades all things, popular songs are regularly manufactured on stereotyped ragtime pattern and turned out on Broadway till the type is becoming so conventionalized that the refrain of a "best-seller" of a few years back might aptly now be changed to "All tunes sound alike to me." Yet ragtime at its best has originality which at once attracts, and a rhythmic impulse that compels response. I remember when the great Russian conductor Saionoff heard it for the first time. The band at the hotel where he was staying had been playing serious music in his honor, when something more popular was requested by one of the other guests. With the first bars of ragtime the musician, who had paid scant attention before, began to listen curiously, then attentively, then enthusiastically. He rushed to the leader of the band. "But what is this? It is wonderful! So original, so interesting." The leader smilingly explained that it was the "real American music." "I shall score it for orchestra and play it in St. Petersburg!" declared the Russian, with real appreciation behind the humor of the suggestion. Whence comes this music that now fairly runs in our veins? Though the origin of ragtime is a matter of discussion, no one can deny the influence of Negro musical characteristics upon our popular songs of the day. Of course the syncopation which is the predominant feature of ragtime is to be found occasionally in all music. It occurs in Scotch and Irish folk-song, it is very prominent in Hungarian melodies, and it is an absolutely essential element in the songs of our North American Indians of many tribes. It is frequently found in the music of primitive people who associate song with bodily movement and rely upon variety of WANTED APPLY TO HENRY S. At MANHATTAN CASINO 155 Thursday, Friday & Saturday of this week rhythm for diversity of musical effect. Any one who has studied Negro music in its different phases—dance-songs, cake-walks, laboring songs as well as the religious melodies—will certainly find ground for the assertion that what we specifically call rag time (the popular American song that is played, whistled, sung and danced to in the theatre, in our homes and on the street) received its first impulse from Negro songs. A remarkable volume entitled It has been said that ragtime first appeared in our music halls about the time of the Chicago World's Fair and it is possible that the reiterated syncopation of the Oriental drumbeat which went echoing forth all over the country with the polygor songs and rhythms of the "Midway Plaisance" may have had some slight share in the evolution of popular music. But some authoritative colored men have traced the origin of the first ragtime melodies directly to the common working-songs and boisterous merrymaking of their own people; and in spite of white imitators and Broadway manufacturers of popular songs, no one can invent such attractive ragtime as that written by colored men (who are only just beginning to be adequately paid for their own ideas); also ignorant colored people sing and play this kind of music naturally and instinctively in a way peculiar to themselves, and difficult, at first, to the average American. All this would help to prove the Negro's influence, at least, on the music of this country. Very different indeed from modern ragtime both musically and spiritually are the old folk-melodies of the plantation; yet many of these have also the rhythmic feature of syncopation—the short note falling on the even beat of the musical bar. White musicians here and there have turned to these beautiful Negro folk-tunes for themes and inspiration. Though we took from the Negro greedily (and still applaud him as an "entertainer" in vaudeville and cabaret) yet few of us ever gave to the colored man any serious consideration of his talent' or stopped to think that the music which white com- CLUB (incorporated) TAN CASINO AY 8 posers found worthy to be valued as a contribution to a future national "school" and whose themes they purposed to "develop" might be "developed" by Negro musicians if encouraged to study. . . . . AVONS AGAIN LEADING Alpha and Avon fought out their contest on the Avan alleys last week and when the smoke cleared away the Avon players had two more games to their credit, thus putting them in the lead again. It was ladies' night at the Avon alleys; so quite a number of the fair sex turned gut to cheer for the home team, which was natural. There was much regret and many sighs from the ladies when Capt. Anderson of the Alpha team withdrew from the contest, substituting Walter Thompson in his place, for the ladies admire Capt.

The Aymanian Baptist Church has large and interesting service at Young's Casino Sunday afternoon. The Abysseur, our pastor, which led the music was at the First, Mrs. Martha Pickenack, who held a solo entitled, "Make the Chance." The sermon was delivered by the Rev. Aclayton Powell, who took for his subject, The Mighty Eagle. He presented Judges 14:14, popular karaoke, and a rabble of the inner eagle forth meat, out of strong came forth sweetness. Dr. Powell discussed the air, water, fire and earth, showing their destructive forces and drawing lessons from the case. He dwelt especially upon the recent disasters in the Middle West. In offering was taken for the relief of those who were made destitute by the floods and tornado. The church will hold another popular service at Young's Casino at 3:30 p.m. next Sunday. The Rev.

Mount Olivet Baptist Church. The services at Mount Olivet last week were well attended. In the morning the pastor preached from the subject, "The Defection of Deman." At his subject was "What is Thy Name?" After collections were taken for the flood sufferers in the West, amounting to $51. The total collection for the day were $180.99. The day before the funeral event over the remains of Mrs. Orcie Barnes were held, undertakers David Brown and Turner and those officiating. On Tuesday evening a surprise was issued the retiring christian, Samuel Jackson, at his residence. Nearly every member of the choir was present at the evening was a most enjoyable. The choir is now under the leadership of Prof. H. Gladstone Marshall. Sunday the program of the H. U. G. Kinski and last Wednesday evening Bessie Garvill presented some of the best talent of the city in one of the most interesting programs ever released before this organization. St James' Presbyterian Church. At the recent congregational meeting of St. James Presbyterian Church the officers and two deacons were elected. There was a large congregation last Sunday at the morning service. Dr. John t. Edwards, of the New York Presbytery, occupied the pulpit and gave an interesting missionary discourse. At the close of the service the report of the committee on pastor was presented and received and the committee discharged with thanks. Dr. Edwards and Dr. Jesse F. Forbes, stated clerk of the Presbytery, complimented the church for its growth in a substantial membership and the splendid work it is doing. Dr. W. R. Lawton was given the strongest possible evidence by the congregation of their confidence in his leadership. The recently elected officers to the boards of the church are considered a valuable contribution to the work. Plans are to be immediately introduced that will greatly increase the finances of the church and add much to the interest of the services. The people have a mind to work and the officers are determined to bring St. James this year into a later realization of her great possibilities. Dr. Lawson's subjects for next Sunday are as follows: 11 a.m. "The Efficiency of Grace", 8 p.m. "The Right." The Minute Girls, under the direction of Mr. and Mrs. Bobby Kemp, will give a unique entertainment April 29 at Young's Casino. Union Baptist Church Sunday was an unusually bright day. Our members turned out in large numbers. In the morning at 11 a.m., m., the M. E. Lynch, who is a member of our church, and who has just closed his ministry at Rutherford, N. J., where he pastored the M. Aratrant Baptist Church, gave us a splendid service on the "Blood." Our Sunday school at 2 p.m. was very largely attended: Supt. W. H. Johnson is mourning his forces toer, to have Children's Day on the last Sunday in May. At 5 p.m. the memorial service of deceased Purley and the funeral service of W. Jones, who was a faithful memorial was held. He was on March 14 on one of the lighters of the New York and New Jersey Co. while at his post duty. His body has not been recovered. He leaves a widow, sister and brother. Deacon Furley leaves a widow and adopted daughter. The Moses and Odd Fellows made a good showing. The eulogy was delivered by our pastor. He quoted Isaiah 9:2. "And they shall rest in their Subject. The Saints Resting Ind." At 5 p.m. the church was crowded. Our pastor reached on The Kingship of Christ. He marked another great service. The pastor signed the church. A presentation of a number heard and his stand was made by Margene Griffin (white) who is a regular attendant. A number of socials are being given the home and in the parlor of the church. In the next six weeks there are many of entertaining features. S. N. Cass of Raleigh, N.

The first foreign missionary of the third Episcopal district of the A. M. E. Zion Church, Mrs. Carrie E. Cartwright-Chesson, who has spent twenty-five years in Africa, is in New York for a week or two soliciting funds for the erection of a school building at Brewerville, Liberia, West Coast of Africa, where is located the Brewerville Training School. Sessions of the school are now being held in the church building at that place. The Rev. J. J. Pierce is pastor of the church and principal of the school. Mrs. Chesson is there. She returned to this country in June, 1912, and expects to return to Liberia about September, 1913. She is stopping with Bishop Alexander Walters, 208 West 134th street, and will be glad to receive any donations friends may care to make. Books also are needed and will be gratefully received. She has a letter of recommendation from Bishop Walters, and donations may be sent direct to her or to the Bishop. While in this country Mrs. Chesson is located in James City, N. C.
