SAILORS FROM BRAZIL INSULTED
Stopped Over in Norfolk, Virginia, and Were "Jim Crowed"
Officers Were not Permitted to Eat in Public Eating Places of Town by Prejudiced White People.
Brazilian Bottleship Minas Geraes will not Leave for Home Until July 15—Visitors Entertained on Board Ship.
It did not take the officers and sailors of the Brazilian Navy, who are paying an official visit to the United States, very long to learn that race prejudice, based on color, runs rampant in this country. There is no such thing as the color line in Brazil and the swarthy-skinned visitors did not fully appreciate the meaning of the term until they came to America. On its passage to New York the battleship Minas Geraes anchored for several hours at Norfolk, Va. Brazil's sailors had not been in Norfolk twenty minutes before they were insulted and humiliated by prejudiced whites.
The first indignity to which the visitors were subjected occurred when the sailors boarded the street cars of Norfolk and were roughly treated because they violated the local "Jim Crow" laws. Not knowing that they were supposed to occupy but one section of a car the dark-skinned sailors took seats at random. Efforts were made to eject them and the street car employees and whites experienced no little difficulty as only a few of the Brazilians could speak English and did not know what the trouble was all about.
It is reported that the sailors misunderstood the motives of some of the whites in seeking to remove them from the "white section," and for a time bloodshed was feared.
Even distinguished officers of the Brazilian navy were visited while in Norfolk, having been refused accommodations in a number of the eating places of that city. The visitors left Norfolk very much perplexed as they did not understand what their color had to do with cordial treatment, specially as they are guests of the United States Government.
The battleship Minas Geraes is anchored at the foot of Seventy-ninth street. North River, and is manned by 250 men with eighty-one officers, Municipal Henrique de Coata, who is in charge of the Minas Geraes, is a soldier man. Many of the officers and sailors are of a mixed parent-
The Minas Geraes reached New York June 15 and will sail for Brazil July 15. The battleship has as its special guest Dr. Lauro Muller, Brazil's Secretary of State, who is making an official visit. When Elthu Root was Secretary of State he paid the Brazilian Government an official visit which the latter is now returning. The officers of the Minas Geraes had as guests on board the battleship representative colored citizens of New York, who have been royally entertained. The visitors have been recipients of much social attention. In the past the narrow view taken by many white Americans on the question has caused the United States to lose millions of dollars of business with the Latin American countries. The experience of the Brazilian sailors at Norfolk will not tend to bring about more pleasant relations between the commercial bodies of the two countries.
TOLEDO'S FIRST COLORED TEACHER
Tartaro O., July 1.—In the class of nine young men and women were presented diplomas at the present new Scott High School graduates of the Toledo Normal School was one colored girl. Jenne Tress of Norwood avenue. The ten years of Miss Ambres' life will have lived at Toledo, where patients, James and Mary Amber are well known and respected. Miss Ambers is a product of local public school system and a lawless record graduated from high school in 1911. There had been a colored graduate of the local School in this city and many did to discourage the young lady spending further time in school, she entered upon the course. Then time came for Miss Ambers to take her diploma she was accorded a great ovation not only by her colored friends but by her schoolmates, and practically the entire audience. She was the recipient of many beautiful and useful tokens of remembrance. Miss Ambers will be Toke's first colored school teacher.
PREJUDICE GROWS IN LONDON
Rev. Richard M. Balden and Prof.
James Eucherhuber Refused Hotel
Accommodations—Prejudiced White
Amenities—Deadly 'Germ
Wherever He Goes
Special to THE NEW YORK AGEN.
LONDON, England, Juyl I.—The Rev. Richard M. Bolden, former pastor of the Mother Zion A. M. E. Zion Church, New York, who is on his way to Zurich, Switzerland, to attend the World's Sunday School Congress, was subjected to as much prejudice in this city as they could have met with in any Southern State in the United States, being refused accommodation at several of the leading hotels of London because of his color.
The Rev. Mr. Bolden, in company with Prof. James Eichelberger, Jr., principal of the Waters Institute, Ark. reached London Sunday and endeavored to secure hotel accommodations. Refusals from hostelries applied to caused them much inconvenience and humiliation. This was a source of surprise to Mr. Bolden and his companion, as they had not expected to receive such treatment in London.
They finally secured accommodations at a hotel which received them regardless of their color and at which they were comfortably cared for. Mr. Bolden is being sent to Europe by his former congregation and will be away from the United States about two months.
"NO COLOR LINE' SAYS SUPT. BARBER
Head of Colored Orphan Asylum Answers Charges Preferred and Gives His Side of the Case — Citizens Invited to Visit Institution and Look into Conditions
F. W. Barber, superintendent of the Colored Orphan Asylum, located at Riverdale-on-the-Hudson, has written a letter to The Age denying the charges made against the management of the institution. Mr. Barber's letter follows:
The assistant superintendent is not a southern woman, having spent only the first eight days of her life in Alabama, and she has brought nothing of southern race feeling into the home. On the contrary, she has strongly assisted us in our efforts to stamp out all more prejudice, to do away with all color lines, and secure for our children a kind treatment. We have less the sort of color, more fair and square treatment of employees, or more hearty cooperation among the helpers than at the present.
The charge of cruelty to children is wholly false. True, a boy was slapped for lying and open impudence, but he was in no way abused and since that time has steadily improved in his general conduct. The mother much to the slapping that we did right, and to it again if the boy rejected the offense. This, however, is not our method of discipline, and was done during the first two weeks of the assistants work here. The charge of cruelty referred to was that of a colored house mother abusing a boy for which she was discharged at once, largely on evidence furnished at once, in nowadays accused of taking part in and encouraging such treatment.
"We are at a loss to know what is meant by a 'chance' state of affairs, because for two months and more there has been nothing in any way resembling chaos in this home. The chaos is very evidently on the outside among those who do not as all fully understand the nature of our institution colored children and every effort is being made to make and keep it a place where boys and girls, our real problems, may obtain such care and training as shall fit them to meet and conquer their world when we shall have done all in our power for them.
"No disrespect has in any way been shown any pictures sacred to colored people. Pictures were taken from the side of the room, and painting were going on, and one was begged for by an elderly colored employee and given her, which explains why it was not returned to the walls after alterations. No pictures of white men were placed in the room. We do not believe, however, that looking at pictures will inspire a boy or girl sufficiently to send them, on to victory. Our plan and purpose is to build up with them strong, unfailing character, like someone who come out and done well with their lives.
"Changes have taken place during the past two years and always in the effort to get the best possible for the boys and girls. The question of race or color has not entered into the problem. It is and always has been our purpose to get and keep those persons in our employ who will do more in any way for our benefit of the house we have kept always before us the fact that this is a home for boys and girls."
"The statement that positions of influence are all filled by white people and that whites are always shown preference might have been true two years ago, but is wholly false now. No one will dare say that a mother's place is menial and unimportant. We are all white-colored. Four members of the administrative staff are colored, and each position filled by them is of high character and great influence. Of the forty-four employees, ten are white only four of which occupy positions of influence.
"No outsider can tell our board to investigate because we are proud to state that our board is an active and
Future Militiamen Are Being Thoroughly Schooled in Military Tactics
Provisional Regiment Marches Through Streets Wednesday Evening—Resolution Blocked by Equity. Congress.
Officers of the Provisional Regiment, formed over a year ago to become a part of the National Guard of this State, have been hugely engaged for several weeks organizing the first company of the colored regiment, which will be mustered into the State militia some time in September. Under the supervision of Charles W. Filmore, colonel of the Provisional Regiment, the future multitamen are being put through a school of tactics which will enable them to pass the mental and physical test required by the military law. Capt. John L. Waller is acting captain of the first company. Wednesday evening the organization of the second company was begun. Arrangements have been made for the two companies to drill on Monday, Wednesday and Friday evenings of each week at Odd Fellows' Hall in 188th street Sergt. Henry Coles, late of the United States Army, is acting as instructor.
Wednesday evening members of the Provisional Regiment paraded the streets of Harlem with a drum corps of sixteen pieces. After the street parade the militiamen-to-be assembled at Odd Fellows Hall, where the first company gave an exhibition drill.
Members of the Equity Congress, who have been fighting for a colored regiment for the past three years, are enthused over the showing made by the first company.
Local Democrata Again Busy.
The charge is made that the local colored Democrats attempted to put through a resolution to amend the constitution which would have proved a boomerang to several well-known members of Equity Congress who are prominent officers in the Provisional Regiment. However, the authors of the resolution failed in their purpose.
A member of the United Colored Democracy offered a resolution to amend the constitution of Equity Congress so that in the future any member holding a Federal, State, county or municipal office would be ineligible to hold office.
Major Charles W. Fillmore, who presided, ruled the motion out of order referring to the preamble of the organization's constitution which states that progress was formed to promote the holding of office.

AN INDUSTRIAL SCHOOL FOR WAYWARD GIRLS
Virginia Women Plan to Establish Institution Near Richmond, Va.
SCHOOL TO OPEN IN FALL
Sixth Annual Session of the Virginia State Federation of Women's Clubs Held at Portsmouth.
Lorraine Smith, Va., July 16. The women of Virginia are about to realize their dream of the past three years to establish an Industrial Home School for Wayward Colored Girls near Richmond, Va. At the sixth annual meeting of the Virginia State Federation of Colored Women's Clubs, held at Zion Baptist Church, Portsmouth, Va., June 25-27, it developed that successful money had raised to purchase land and start the erection of a building to be finished in time for the school to open this fall. Through the influence of Mrs. Harris Barrett, president of the federation, Mrs. Henry Lane Schmelz, a prominent white woman of Hampton, Va., consented to act as chairman of a board of trustees consisting of representative white and colored men and women. At the federation meeting Mrs. Schmelz announced the trustees as follows: Mrs. V.R. Mumford, Russell Buse, Dr. Drewery, Capt. John Roper, Dr. L. T. Royster, Mrs. H. M. Caldwell, Mrs. Frank W. Darling, M. L. Titus, Mrs. Maggie Walker, Mrs. H. C. Norcum, W. C. Walker, Ma. R. K. Moton, Dr. B. Frissell, Judge Richardson, Missy Addison, Dr. Stokes, the Mrs. C. S. Morris, Mrs. H. L. Schmelz, president, H. L. Schmelz, treasurer, Mrs. Harris Barrett, secretary.
In January a tract of 147 acres of land near Richmond was purchased as a site for the school for $5,200. One thousand dollars was paid and notes given for the balance. With the money reported to the federation at this session it was found possible to pay three $900 notes on the site, leaving a balance of only $1,000 to be paid on the land. Mrs. Schmutz announced that a Richmond lady had given $2,000 for the erection of a building, and that a brick cottage was being erected by Capt. Roper of Norfolk, which it was hoped to have completed by the last of October.
Contributions during the year for the school were received as follows: The Dorcas Art Club of Hampton sent $50 in April; the Homemakers' Club of Hampton gave $59; the City Federation of Portsmouth gave $75; Mrs. Maggie L. Walker presented
ELKS LOSE IN OHIO
Permanent injunction issued by Judge at Dayton. Restraining Improved Environment and Protective Order of Elks of the World from Using Name "Elks."
Special to THE NEW YORK AGR
DAYTON, Ohio, July I.-Judge A. C. Risinger, of Eaton, Ohio, in the Common Pleas Court to-day rendered a decision in the case of the white Elks against the Negro Elks, granting a perpetual injunction order, restraining the Improved Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks of the World from making further use of the name "Elks" or any of the designated or emblematic possessions of the white Elks. The white Elks made application for this injunction last August and the decision has been pending since the hearing of the case in Dayton early this year. The Negro Elks will lose no time in appealing the case, and it is hoped to eventually win the right to use the title of "Elks" as has been done in cases of other Negro secret orders where attempt was made to restrain the use of distinguishing titles, insignals, etc.
The annual meeting of the Executive Committee of the Anna T. Jeanes Fund was held at the rooms of the General Education Board, June 30, Dr. Booker T. Washington, chairman, presiding. Also present were Dr. James H. Dillard, the president of the board, Dr. S. C. Mitchell, of South Carolina, and Major Robert R. Moton, Virginia, secretary. The board appropriated $40,000 for strengthening small rural schools for Negroes in the South. The board has had a most encouraging year.
NEGRO DEMOCRATS ARE HARD HIT AGAIN
Southern Democrats Rant and Make Themselves Ridiculous on "Negro Domination" Subject—E. R. Belcher Dropped as Deputy Collector at Brunswick, Ga.
Berkshire, Ga., July 1.—Democratic protests have been successful in causing Mr. McAdoo, Secretary of the Treasury, to resend his action appointing E. R. Belcher, a Negro, Deputy Collector of Customs at this place. No Negroes are now left in important Federal positions in the South.
More than a hundred telegrams were sent to Washington by the Brunswick Board of Trade, and by individuals protesting against Mr. Belcher. Then it was announced that the appointment had been withdrawn and L. P. Johnson accused instead. It was explained that Belcher is in by mistake.
The following telegram was sent to the Representatives at Washington by the Brunswick Board of Trade:
"We are informed that I. R. Belcher, a Negro, who holds the position of deputy collector for the port of Brunswick, will be in charge of the office after July 1. It such information is based on fact we enter our protest against such violation of our technologies and wishes.
"The solidarity of Democratic Georgia and of the entire South results from a determined opposition of our people to any semblance of Negro domination. We feel that our support of Democracy entitles us to protection from such wanton disregard for our wishes and ask that this Negro be removed from office and a white man appointed. We call upon every Senator and Congressman of Georgia and the South to and Brunswick in this matter."
CONTRIBUTES $1,000
TO FISK UNIVERSITY
Last week the trustees of Fisk University held two meetings in the office of Paul D. Cravath in New York City. Those present at this meeting included A.F. Reard, Dr. Ryder, H. L. Simmons, Dr. Booker T. Washington and Dr. George H. Moore. The trustees were gratified to find that the $300,000 fund which they have been striving to raise for some time has been completed, except for a few thousand dollars, which they hope to secure within the next few weeks. After completing the $300,000 fund, the trustees are considering the wisdom of beginning to raise $150,000 more to be added to the fund of Fisk University.
It was reported at the trustees meeting that the Alumni of Fisk University had raised in cash and in pledges something over $40,000. One colored woman who has been in charge of the laundry at Fisk University for a number of years contributed $1,000.
WANT REPRESENTATION IN STATE OF MARYLAND
BALMORE, Md. July 2—Many of the friends of Dr. Ernest Lyon, former American minister to Liberia, are urging him to enter the fight for the Republican nomination for Congress in the Third district. The seat is now vacant, owing to the recent death of Congressman Konig, a Democrat. There are over 4,000 colored voters in the district, and it also contains the bulk of the foreign vote. With the united support of the colored vote there is every indication that Dr. Lyon would stand a fair chance of securing the nomination. He has not decided whether to enter the fight or not.

Wood-Carr Faction Averse to Conceding that Taylor is Vice Chairman

State Comptroller and Bank Will Not Recognize Requisitions Unless Signed by New Vice Chairman.
COMMISSION WITHOUT HOME
Furniture Put on the Sidewalk-Because Commissioners Were Unable to Pay Rent-Effects Now at Democratic Headquarters.
The Wood-Carr faction, which has been running the Emancipation Commission with a high hand, has met its Waterloo in J. Henry Taylor, who was recently appointed vice-chairman of the commission by Gov. Sulzer to succeed Summer H. Lark, resigned. The Wood-Carr faction refused to recognize Mr. Taylor as vice-chairman, despite the effect of the Governor, maintaining that James D. Carr was the real vice-chairman of the commission. So Tuesday J. Henry Taylor set about to know who was who, and did his work with neatness and dispatch.
Tuesday morning, accompanied by his attorney, Louis A. Leaelle, 174 W. 135th street, Mr. Taylor called on the officers of the Fifth Avenue Bank and served notice as vice-chairman of the commission that there would be trouble if the bank cashed any more requisitions not signed by him. The State-Controller a short time ago deposited $2,500 in the bank to the credit of the commission.
Vice-Chairman Taylor and his attorney also visited Deputy State Comptroller Wallace F. Frisier, and Mr. Taylor presented his certificate showing that he had been named vice-chairman of the commission by Gov. Sulzer. The Deputy State Comptroller, after a conference with the visitors, announced that in the future he would not honor any requisitions against the $25,000 appropriated by the State for the holding of the celebration unless signed by Wood and Taylor.
Furniture on Sidewalk.
Waltice Chairman Taylor was having its status determined by the State and bank officials the Wood-Garr faction was having its troubles in Harlem. At a meeting held Monday evening it was decided to move from the Victoria Apartments to a store on Lenox avenue between 145th and 150th streets. The building is leased by a Chinaman, who runs a restaurant on the second floor and sublets the first floor. When the office furniture of the commission was moved Monday afternoon from the Victoria Apartments to the Lenox avenue store the Chinaman at once asked for the first month's rent. When he did not receive it he had the furniture put on the sidewalk.
As the commissioners had no rent money, and as the bank officials have ruled that they will honor no requisitions unless bearing the name of Vice Chairman Taylor, the commission is without funds and is also without a home. To make matters worse, John M. Royall now threatens to sue the commission for breaking the Victoria Apartment lease.
The furniture of the commission has been removed to the headquarters of the United Colored Democracy in 136th street, near Lenox avenue. At the monthly smoker of the United Colored Democracy, held Tuesday evening, art of depression prevailed which was not due to the extreme heat. Many present had in their pockets checks from the commission which had been signed by Wood and Carr. But they were not worth a cent, as Vice Chairman Taylor was not on them.
Out of the $2,560 placed in the Fifth Avenue Bank by the State Comptroller for the use of the commission $1,639 i still on deposit. Unless the Wood-Carriage concedes that Taylor is vice chairman there is no telling how long the balance will remain in the bank. In the meantime the work of the commission is at a standstill. Although the celebration is to be held in October, the commission has done nothing except theorize, allowing one member to tell his plans about bringing exhibits from Africa, and holding a sociological conference. At Monday evening's meeting of the commission the commissioner quarreled until early Tuesday morning The most important piece of business transacted was the putting through of resolution resolving to move from the Victoria Apartments. Although a publicity department is in variably established to effectively advertise an exposition, the advertising en has, been gobbled, up by one man who has seen that his publication, although a monthly, has gotten the bulk of the advertising at a fancy rate. The weekly papers have been given but scant consideration.

A Heart To Heart Talk About Wigs
We manufacture and.sell more high ‘class creole’ or
wavy wigs than any otker store in the United States,
THE REASON ‘WHY?
Our wig caps are made after living creole models; tried
on and fitted thus securing that tight snug fit on the
ears as well as around the head and nape of neck.
Every wig is hand made on ventilated netting, so to
leave the air to get to the scalp; thus promoting the
growth of hair while wearing a wig. Our wigs cannot
be detected from your own hair—they look natural, and
wear for years. :

THE EMANCIPATION COMMISSION
In May the legislature of New York State passed a bill appropriating $25,000 for the holding of an exposition to show the advancement made by our Negro citizens in fifty years, or since the issuance of the Emancipation Proclamation. Gov. Sulzer promptly signed the measure and a commission, made up entirely of Negroes, was named, the Governor investing them with power to make all necessary arrangements for the celebration.
May and June have gone on their way and the month of July is in our midst. What have the commission' ers done to inspire the Negroes of New York with the feeling of confidence that they are the right men in the right place? Absolutely nothing. To date the most conspicuous accomplishment of the commission has been to put on the payroll members of the United Colored Democracy only. The question of fitness is not an issue. If you want a job under the commission the principal requisite is you must be affiliated with the local colored Democratic organization.
So general have been the protests from members of the race all over New York State over the high-handed methods resorted to by the Democratic politicians controlling the commission that Gov. Sulzer has intervened. He has notited the commissioners that if they continue to disregard his wishes he will adopt drastic measures to see that an exposition is held which will be a credit to the Negro and the State of New York.
---
The officials are at loggerheads, due to a disturbing element on the commission which insists on doing impractical things. Headed by the chief dreamer of dreamers, this element is ambitious to bring to New York for the exposition, which is to be held in October, curios from Africa. Another idea is to gather together the sociologists of the race, the State to defray their expenses. THE AGE asks the Negro citizens of the State what has the bringing of exhibits to New York from Africa to do with showing the public the progress of the Negro of New York or of the country? We want to know what the race would gain by assembling a group of sociologists to discuss social science? To what extent would the public be interested in these discussions?
The charge has been made by the selfish and designing that THE AGE is disgruntled because it is not playing a prominent part in preparing for the exposition. Such is only the pitiful wail of those who are beginning to find out that the people are on to them. THE AGE would not care to be a party to any amateurish attempt to arrange for an exposition as is now being witnessed by the public. THE AGE would not care to be classed with those who have theories but who reap no material good; those who seldom put foot on terra firma, bare who soar through space in blissful ignorance of their lamentable predicament. THE AGE is desirous of being connected with successes, not failures.
It is far better for us to raise our voice in protest now against the fool-
when the businessmen assemble in the city and the hundred local legions in the country, and that the annual meeting at Philadelphia in August promises to be one of the most summarily attended and successful in the history of the organization. The local arrangements are being performed upon a generous scale by the local committee, to which the common council of Philadelphia has voted an appropriation of $5,000. The public officials, the newspapers and the general public are all co-operating to make the meeting a notable and successful one. The splendid work of the league in its thirteen years of effort has gained for it the good will and sympathy of the people of the nation who have their faces toward the rising and not the setting sun.
No one can read the statistics of the phenomenal growth of Negro business enterprises of all sorts, in all sections of the country, during the past thirteen years without being able properly to appreciate the direct and indirect influence of the Business League. It has stood in the forefront of the people as a clarion voice ringing in their ears the advice to "let down the bucket where you are!" "Make the most of the opportunity at the door!" "Save the pennies and the dollars will save themselves!" "Buy nothing of others you can buy of yourself!" and like texts upon which our editors and teachers have spoken and written long sermons that the people have heard and striven to profit by. The results are good. The results will be better.
All honor to Dr. Washington and his fellow workers of the Business League who have wrought by example and inspiration such a great and good work in so brief a time, as years of achievement are counted.
FIRST SCANDALS FOR PRESIDENT WILSON.
Much newspaper space has been given to an alleged statement of President Wilson, made long before he had put his patent leather foot under the White House mahogany, that thirteen is his lucky number. Perhaps it is. We shall see if it will be more lucky for the last man who got it 1913 years after the Christian era than it ever was for the first man who got it 1913 years before the Christian era. For all purposes of deduction Professor Wilson became President of the United States on the third day of the third month of the nineteen hundred and thirteenth year. If the cards are stacked in his favor these are his numbers. The result of the gamble, unfortunately, will affect the destiny of the United States, even more than it will those of the President of them for the period covered by the gamble.
President Wilson's administration is very young as yet, only four months old, but it has developed four full growth scandals that will grow in aggravating consequences with the growth of his administration. They are:
1. Secrecy of Negro employees in the departments at Washington and repudiation of Negro Democrats in appointments to office, and the displacement of Negro Republican officeholders, "in hot haste," and the appointment of white Democrats to succeed them.
2. Reorganization of the Civil Service Commission on a Democratic instead of a non-partisan basis; demoralization of the diplomatic and consular service by discarding the merit system in appointments and promotions within the service, and by marked favoritism in the predominating number of appointments of Southern Democrats, who know nothing about the consular and less about the diplomatic service.
3. Signing an appropriation, all with a rider that exempts trade unions and farmers' organizations from prosecution under the anti-trust law.
4. Pre-emptive dismissal of District Attorney McNah and his assistant of San Francisco for protesting against delay ordered by Attorney General McReynolds of the white slave cases against young Caminetti, whose father was recently appointed to be United States Commissioner of Immigration at Washington, and another man, his companion, upon the advice of his chief, Secretary of Commerce and Labor Wilson, instead of the prompt dismissal of Attorney General McReynolds for taking the advice and Secretary Wilson for giving it and Commissioner of Immigration Caminetti for offering it.
The white slave cases against Maury L. Driggs, former state architect, and Drew Caminetti, son of former State Senator A. Caminetti, now Commissioner of Immigration of California, are most provoking ones. Both are married men. They took two young girls from cultured homes into another state and bullied and dehonored them, and were indicted for the crime by the United States grand jury, the county grand jury of Sacramento having also indicted them for abandoning their minor children in shipping to Reto with the two women in the scandal. The indicted persons boasted that their high standing and official connections would save them, from prosecution, and may have done so if District Attorney McNah had not called the Attorney General to account and thus brought the outrageous scandal to public attention. To discharge the faithful district attorney and his assistant under the circumstances, as President Wilson has done, and to retain the Attorney General, Secretary of Commerce and Labor and Commissioner of Immigration, who are responsible for the holding up of the prosecutions, in their high and responsible positions, and to order that the held up cases be presented without delay. President Wilson has not helped his own case, but rather hurt it by his official acts.
Like Mr. William H. Lewis, Mr. McReynolds was an assistant attorney general under President Taft, although a Democrat of the South good enough to be singled out for a cabinet position by President Wilson. One of his first acts as attorney general was to demand the resignation of Mr. Lewis, presumably because he is a Negro and a Republican. He will have confession for comfort all the days he remains Attorney General, and we are not sure they will be four years long.
We are bound to recall the fact that Attorney General McReynolds would allow no delay in the white slave cases of Jack Johnson, nor reduction of the excessive bail, nor any exemption from the petty annoyances and persecutions to which Mr. Johnson was subjected by the Chicago officials of the government from the time of his indictment to that of his conviction. Johnson was black and had no pull, therefore the word went along, spoken or understood, to nail him to the indictment without delay or mercy, and it was done.
Turn the Democratic firebrands out! They have never been any good They have always been a disturbing element in the national life from Thomas Jefferson, the Virginia dreamer of dreamers, to Woodrow Wilson, the Virginia, preacher's son, who is disposed to rule the nation as President with as high a hand, and lofty a voice as he ruled the faculty and students of Princeton University. Turn the Democratic firebrands out. They are saturated with Southern reptilian poison, the breath of which is death to national honor, aspiration and hope.
hardy attempt to make the race in New York a laughing stock than to wait until later on, when the African exhibits and sociologists will cause Gov. Sulzer and the legislators to vehemently ask: "And it was for this that we gave the $25,000?" It is far better to acquaint the Negroes of the State now with what is going on and give them an opportunity to express their dissatisfaction to Gov. Sulzer than to remain mute and allow the public to witness a farce which would throw the race back fifty years in the estimation of the white citizens instead of serving the real purpose of the "proposed" exposition—show the advancement the race has made.
A NEW THEORY OF HEAVEN
Most people are interested in heaven and really desire to go there when they die. Just where and what heaven is they do not know, but that it must be very much different and better than earth they firmly believe. Dr Booker T. Washington has an idea about it that may be brand new. Speaking at Wetumpka, Ma. recently he said : "Many years ago it was said I was only preparing servants for white people. My son has to teach the dignity of labor, that man has to teach the dignity of labor, that man has to teach the dignity of labor, would command better wages for his later. Many of our people depend upon day dreaming. I want to draw every day, draw from the soil, draw your corn, your peas, your cabbage, your potato from your and farm.
To be a trained and efficient servant who would be a better citizen, who would command better wages than an untrained one is good, but to be a trained and efficient master of "trained and efficient servants" is a great deal better and more to be desired. Dr Washington would have said as much if he had followed the thought to the conclusion.
Heaven is a thing wiser than disagree about, but the Bible says it is in the fortreatment of the earth, where the sun, moon and stars are, and judging from so much of it as we are able to see with the naked eye and eye, with the naked flesh it is the hottest place in the universe to get away and stay away. In the sixth day God created man in his own image, and told them, his male and her female, to "be fruitful and multiply and replein the
And how, in the general confusion that prevails, Dr. Washington speaks very wisely when he says: "I think we should spend less time in trying to get people to go to Heaven and more time in trying to get Heaven into people." That is, according to the accepted theory of heaven, that it is a better place than the earth, Eden or Paradise. We prefer the theory that Heaven is the hottest place in the universe, which flesh and blood should be kept as far away from as possible, and that the image should not hanker after it, because the earth was given him to dwell upon and not heaven.
COMMENCEMENT WISDOM
The scholarly Dr. R. E. Jones, editor of the Southwestern Christian Advocate, in his commencement address at Tuskegee Institute, said that he once saw his ideal at a railroad station, palsied as to his limbs, who moved about in a roller chain by throwing his body back and forth. Beggar? No. A merchant prince, who carried his stock of goods about his neck. He did not complain. He made the most of his wits to make an honest living and made it. Anybody can do that, but everybody does not do it not try to do it. Why? Dr. Jones said:
"In the first place, you will know a year from now, more than you can realize at this present moment that this is a commencement, the beginning, and however peradoxical it may seem, you are not at the top of the ladder, you are at the foot. We are here to applaud you so much so that you have already accomplished as to give you life. In it all the strenuous tasks that lie before you. To be trak with you, young men and young women, the life in earnest that awaits you without will strength will be drawn upon, as well as your intellectual resources."
If our graduates will understand what Dr. Jones so plainly told them they will have more success in building upon the foundation that they got in their school days when they take up the real work of making a living and a reputation for themselves. Too many graduates imagine that they know it all when they finish the school course, when they are, as Dr. Jones says, at the bottom and not at the top of the ladder of wisdom of the books and the ways of the world.
CHANCELLOR GREEN AND THE FLORIDA STORM.
That the weak have no defense against the strong, whether the strong be the state or the nation, is an unwritten law of those who set up the argument that the state or the nation cannot be indicted, but who overlook the stern fact that the state and the nation can indict themselves, and do it, and that they are punished and speedily in ways that they cannot understand nor reach.
Take the case of Chancellor S. W. Green, of New Orleans, who three weeks ago was chased, locked up and tried $25 in Escambia County for violating the separate car law of Florida, although occupying a Pullman interstate car. The Federal Supreme Court has just declared, in general terms, that the State has a right to make, and its local and county officials have the right to enforce, such separate car laws and conduct. We emphatically challenge and deny such right. Here is a case where the State and the nation indict themselves of wrong against a citizen belonging to the weaker race element of the national citizenship, and who is held in insistent terms that he has no appeal from the injustice. We deny the affirmation insolently thrown into our faces by the Federal Supreme Court and the State officials of Florida.
Let us look into this. Last week a wind storm passed over Florida, climaxing in Leon County, destroying millions of dollars' worth of property in Escambia, Jackson and Gadsden counties, taking the roof off the State capital at Tallahassee, so that wind and rain could sweep through and saturate, unhindered, the insignificant old thing, and killing outright eighteen people. Is there no rebuke to the State of Florida and the nation in this catastrophe for the wrong done Chancellor Green and his defenseless race? Has not the Spirit rebuked them in a physical manifestation of wrath? He is no Christian who will not see and acknowledge the rebuke. Solennly we pronounce the sentence: This nation has ceased to be a Christian nation. The lords of this nation have gone wrong in Core.
Where is our authority for this statement as a Christian editor of an alleged Christian nation? In the first and only Episcopal of Jude (vesse 2) we have it as follows: "Woe unto them, for they have gone in the way of Cain, and ran gravely after the error of Balaam for reward, and perished in the gainstaking of Core." What is the woe of it? What is the Core? The explanation is simple. It is this. The state and nation have "gone in the way of Cain" by denying to the sons and daughters of the black slave woman which the white slave master raped and gave to her "the equal protection of the laws." They say to the black and colored sons and daughters of their white fathers that they have no rights that the white sons and
Bound of obligations. We deny the right of the state to make any such law and enforce it in any such way against citizens of the United States on "account of race, color or previous condition," and we appeal from the Supreme Court's sanction, of such law to the unfailing justice of the God of Nations.
FISK UNIVERSITY GETS $300,000
The trustees, faculty, alumni and friends of Fisk University are to be felicitated because of the completion of the arduous task of raising $300,000 to free the institution from debt and increase the endowment fund. Fisk University is now placed in a position to go forward as a leader in college education. Mr. Henry L. Simmons, the general agent, deserves special thanks. We understand that it is the plan of the trustees to raise an additional $150,000. We still add to the increase of the endowment.
Fisk University will soon be in a position to meet all of the requirements to make it eligible for the Carnegie Foundation. There is no disposition among the generous people of this country not to help Negro colleges, but Negro colleges must work for money just as Fisk has done. The word "college" will not draw money from the pockets of the wealthy.
Now let Howard University, instead of being satisfied with a mere pittance from Congress, go to work and secure an endowment that will be worthy of Howard. Both Fisk and Howard should have endowment of at least one million dollars each. Both can get it if they will go to work.
WHY THIS SILENCE?
Matters are transpiring in the present Democratic administration that are already past human belief, and in the face of all this the forces of "manhood rights" seem to be "ominously silent. We cannot understand it. The colored clerks in the Post Office Department have been segregated from the white clerks. They have been placed behind screens and in this hot weather they suffer torture. The colored clerks, have been segregated in the Bureau of Engraving and Printing. In the Post Office Department colored clerks have been ordered to use a separate toilet room from that used by the whites. Nearly every day some colored man put into some important and lucrative position by either Mr. Roosevelt or Mr. Taft is being turned out of office and a white man put in his place.
We do not hear a word from such Democrats as Bishop Walters, Dr. DuBois, Mr. Hershaw, Mr. Trotter and a host of others who make it a practice of defending the Negro's rights. Can it be that because these individuals, some of whom are applicants for office, are afraid to open their mouths? Has it reached the point where the desire for some personal gain has displaced their loyalty to the race and blotted out their manhood?
In the face of all that is going on we marvel too at the silence of such newspapers as the New York Evening Post and the Springfield Republican, papers that have heretofore stood up in a straight-forward manner in defending the rights of the Negro. Both of these papers, if we mistake not, supported President Wilson. Are they supporting him in his present unwarranted policy in dealing with the Negro race? The time has come when the atmosphere must be cleared. We ought to know who our friends are.
DR. STINSON'S ATLANTA WORK.
Dr. Richard Dennis Stinson, of the Atlanta Normal and Industrial Institute, who has a way of his own, which is his way, of "getting along with the best white people," and which has worked very well so far in his undertakings, has got up a neat circular in which the opinions on the Negro and his education and opportunity, expressed by some of the most influential white citizens of Atlanta, are brought together on one of the four pages, the Hon. Clark Howell of the Atlanta Constitution, who has a provoking way of blowing hot and cold on the Negro and his problems, contributing a handsome endorsement of Dr. Stinson and his work.
Take the following as crumbs of comfort: "Better citizenship among the Negroes means as much to the white people as it does to the Negroes themselves, in reducing crime and in benefitting the community at large." says Mr. Howell. "It is my opinion that in order to make useful citizens of the colored people they must be employed on the farm, in the workshop and as domestic servants. All who are capable and desire it can and useful employment of this kind. All should work." says Mr. James W. England. "Any people is better protected when it is educated," says Superintendent of Education Slaton. "It bespeaks a great deal when respectable white people and respectable colored people can meet and discuss matters of vital import to both and enjoy the meeting and derive as much benefit as has been done in this case." says Rev. John E. White, DD Mr S. M. Inman says.
The civilization of a State is no higher
than that of a country, and a
State is no stronger than its weaker
State.
These expressions are of great value because of the high character of the men who have made them and because Atlanta, where they were expressed, is not only the greatest city in the South, but the storm center of the race problem in the South out of which all sorts of gruesome, unlooked-for and monstrous things have come in the past, and which should he bottled up as to the future by a wise and just public opinion determined to separate the false from the true and to protect the innocent and weakling from the wrongdoing of the criminal strong and depraved.
EDITORIAL NOTES
Gov. Sulzer has lost the fight in the New York State Legislature on his primary measures, and will now have to appeal to the direct vote of the dear people.
The annual meeting of the Business League in Philadelphia this year will give the people of that sleepy city something to talk about until they have another fifty years of emancipation celebration to wring over.
Conference rows and riots are not eufying to participate in nor read about, but when Bishops disband the unanimous request of the congregations for the return of pastors they are bound to be expected and happen.
The school authorities of New York City have decided against the employment of married women as school teachers. We think this to be merciful to the married women who want to be school teachers, whose husbands should be able to support them.
What does Bishop H. M. Turner mean by the following notice over his signature in the Christian Recorder: "The Bermuda conference will be held July 24th. You know where Bermuda is, one of the islands in the ocean." This is horribly crabbed and vague.
Race discrimination in Negro institutions against Negroes is repugnant from every viewpoint and should be combatted by Negroes wherever it is found to exist. Conditions, therefore, in the Colored Orphan Asylum, at Riverdale-on-the-Hudson, as disclosed in The Ake of June 19, should be remedied by those in authority.
The New York commission of the fifty years of emancipation threaten to scour the earth for exhibits on the mikado, 25,000 appropriated for the celebration. The stink of New York State for exhibits. What the Negroes of New York have done and are doing are the things we desire and the State has appropriated the money to have display made of.
The Liberian Mission, is still vacant and expectant and anxious Negro Democrats are still waiting for the White House to nod their way. Bishop Walters still retains his unbounded confidence in President Wilson, but the enthusiasm has gone out of it, and is no longer heard in loud proclamations that echo to where rolls the Star of Zion, and all the hopes of Clement, Editor Clement!
Persons who want to succeed Mayor Gaynor of New York are growing to be numerous as the political power of parties. Mayor Gaynor says he is willing to run again, but so far no party organization that wants him has been discovered. That is because as mayor, Mayor Gaynor has tried to prove that he is bigger than any party. An effort of that kind usually kills the man politically who tries it.
It has just been discovered that the Egyptian women of 1,000 years before the Christian Era used "tear bottles" which really contained face powder. The American Tailors' Association threatened to split over the awful question of the length of woman's coat. High-heeled shoes are disappearing because women tend to have rebelled against them. And narrow skirts are becoming broader upon having common sense legs insist upon having room to move about in. We live in a great age and any movement or style intended to gag freedom of thought and speech and movement of legs and arms is bound to have heaps of trouble.
Why Should Not Colored Girls Be Received?
Your editorial on the Age:
Your editorial on the Sisterhood of Women "was timely. It seems to me that the resolution you mention, signed by a conference of workers in behalf of the proposed Sourjourner Truth Home, needs an amendment to part of the colored members of the National League on Urban Conditions. Among Colored folk generally may well ask a principle to be sacrificed to financial support. The sanction of a resolution classifying that "As practical workers we are colored girls can OR SHOULD BE RECEIVED in homes for white girls" looks very much like the colored members of the league are themselves just race for the publication on the ground of race for the publication using money. I have seen Mrs. Solkman in the issue of The Age of June 19, but it offers no explanation as to WHY colored girls should not be received in white homes. We recognize the fact that the resolution received, but we do not concede the fact. SHOULD NOT BE RECEIVED, even as an appeal for funds for a home to be set apart for them.
Yours truly,
COLORED WOMAN.

Condition at Orphan Home.
To the Elder of the Art.
Having read the article about alleged cruelties and ministries at the Colored Orphan Asylum in your issue of June 20, as well as knowing of the reply from Mr. Barber, the superintendent, which you so fairly print in this number, I beg to call your own and your readers' attention to a few further
the personal reading and writing letter, particularly the paragraph in which he invites all who are interested to come to Riverdale and see for themselves the conditions under which the children live, for the states what is known to all the trustees. I never worked with a group of people more willing to listen to well-founded criticism, nor more eager to turn it to the advantage of their little charges than to the managers of the Colored Orphan Asylum, as far as is consistent with their heavy responsibilities as guardians of future funds, as managers of large endowment funds, and as obedient servants of State laws. Second, it must be remembered that the institution is an old one which is going through a trying period of adjustment to the modern high standards of efficiency, a condition requiring forhearance, patience and freedom from alarmists' sentimentality. I believe that the voluntary statement signed by thirty out of the thirty-four colored workers at the home is a proof that the new order is beginning to bring satisfaction to those most intimately concerned.
Lastly, my fourteen years' experience among the colored people of New York convinces me that their sense of honesty and loyalty shown to all the world duringing the war is still ready to respond to such a challenging appeal for cooperation as Mr. Barber makes, and that the leaders will see that all future steps in this direction are taken according to law and order.

SUMMER NIGHT'S DANCEFEST
THE FROGS' FROLIC
(BY LUCIEN H. WHITE.)
Frogs of every degree and station
End their annual celebration;
Some were snout and some were slender,
Some were tough, but most were tender.
A big fat Frog in gaysome mood.
Welcomeed Froglets from pool and wood.
While a little Frog stalk at the stile
Trying little Froglets to beguile.
A Daddy Frog, who's broad and stout,
And a long, lean Frog, with a lanky snout,
Joined in the chorus, loud and strong,
"Come along, little Froggies, come along."
The Froggies came, dressed in their best,
The late style costumes stood the test,
High at the bottom, low at the top,
Made the Old Frogs' eyes play flip-flop.
Dark Frogs, light Frogs, brown and white,
All colors and kinds were out that night.
The music swelled and moved the feet
Of tough Old Frog and Froglet sweet.
The Frogs and Froggies danced till morn,
And occasionally slipped the mellow corn.
And when night's shade was raised by day,
The tired Froggies ceased their play.
Back to their pools and wood they went,
Each Froggie with a Frog, intent
On finding a cool and calm retreat
To rest—tough Frog and Froggie sweet.
SOFT and mellow radiance from myriads of tinted incandescent globes shimmered and glowed over fair faces and modish costumes Monday evening, June 30, when the guests of The Frogs, assembling from all directions of the compass, disported themselves upon the smooth and glasslike floor of the spacious and well-appointed Manhattan Casino, Eighth avenue and 155th street. The Frogs, a social organization of comparatively recent lineage, but of honorable parentage, have made for
themselves an unexcelled reputation as dispensers of joys that cheer and pleasures that never pall, were in their glory and in no wise did they allow their reputation as original and resourceful hosts to be detracted from.
No set program was attempted, but the ladies and gentlemen began assembling at an early hour, and, notwithstanding the intense heat, to the siren strains of the augmented selected symphony orchestra, swayed through the sensuous movements of the waltz, the enticing allurements of the schottische, the abandon of the tango, the steady swing of the two-step, the intoxicating languor of the slow-drag, and the wild writhings of the turkey trot. The ladies in their vari-colored costumes, conforming to the latest edicts of the fashion moulders, the men equally as varied in their dress, ranging from flannels to full dress, formed a composite mass of color that swung and swayed in kaleidoscopic color schemes, the combinations of the spectrum being rivaled as the tinted lights, falling from different angles, produced different effects to the eyes of the spectators.
Between dances the illuminated summer gardens were thronged with strolling couples, and in the din recesses of the palm walks and leaf-covered arbors beautiful lady and gallant gentleman enjoyed the cool night breeze from Coogan's Heights, exchanging bright glances from love-lighted eyes and whispering soft nothings fraught with love's most potent story. It was an evening of evenings, and the gay galaxy of pleasure's devotees made dalliance along the walks of the garden of joy until Old Sol pushed his grinning and perspiring face up from behind the eastern heights and the cold glare of day's reality bedimmed the pale and tender light of Luna, love's priestess.
It was a cosmopolitan gathering - gallants from the tropics, officers and sailors from the Brazilian warship, mingled with the guests and paid homage to the beauty of the American girl, the sweetest and fairest of all, and Venus' most effective weapon in the subjugation of the masculine enemy. Philadelphia, Boston, Washington and all the cities immediately contiguous to New York sent their fairest and most charming representatives and their alluring sweetness was never more appreciated or set in more effective surroundings.
Hospitable as they have always been, The Frogs surpassed themselves in the beauty and value of the souvenirs which were distributed to the ladies. Handsome and expensive cut glass, gold and silver ware, articles of glass, English porcelain, valuable field glasses and rare water colors were distributed with profligate liberality to the ladies present.

Tom Lemonier has signed to go our next season with William Brady's Little Miss Brown Company. This will make his third season in a Brady show as an actor.
Braxton and Braxton were at the Crescent Theatre the second half of last week. This act should get new material, for what they are using is too raw.
Jennie Scheper-Haston is back in New York and is looking the picture of health. "Gus" Haston, her husband, who is in Paris, is planning to return to America and will rejoin her.
J. Rosamond Johnson writes from Paris that he is in the French capital adapting sketches for Anna Held, who opens at the De Merode July 14. Mr. Johnson is to take unto himself a wife very shortly.
Pete Hampton and wife are in New York after a long vaudeville engagement abroad. They say business is good in Europe for all good acts. Mr. and Mrs. Hampton intend to spend several weeks at their home in Bowling Green, Ky.

The Hottentot Girls are playing in St. Louis. Evon Robinson writes that someone malicious y circulated the report t at a member of the act is in trouble, which is absolutely untrue.
CRESCENT THEATRE.
Manager Ostreicher continues to set aside Tuesday evening as amateur night, despite the heat, and Tuesday evening quite an audience was on hand to see a number of aspiring Thespians get the hook.
Laurence Chenault and Daisy Martin have formed a team and were featured at the Crescent the first half of the week. The act could be more effectively arranged. The hot weather has not made Miss Martin less energetic as a singer and dancer.
The Three Dancing Imps caught on well and George Fisher, who opened the bill, pleased.
LAFAYETTE THEATRE
Al Bailey and the Teare Sisters were headliners at the Lafayette Theatre the first half of the week. The act opens with a vocal number and then sets to work entertaining with instruments. It is with the brass instruments that this trio shows up strongest, and they handle cornetts and trombones with skill instead of adopting the theory that the harder you blow the more music you make, they believe in the quality of tone production. One of the sisters shows more than ordinary skill as a cornetist. The act ends big.
Simms & Thompson played a return engagement at the Lafayette the first half of the week, repeating their success of some weeks ago.
An interesting act on the bill was Davaldo's Sheep, and Walter Reynolds and company presented a sketch which was gripping.

BACK ON BIG TIME.
Fiddler & Shelton have gone back to the big vaudeville circuits after a season's absence. Sunday they open over the Orpheum Circuit for twenty-two weeks at the Orpheum Theatre, Regina, Can. Upon their return East they will play the two-a-day houses of Keith & Proctor.
Last summer when Fiddler & Shelton found it difficult to get booking in the United Booking Offices they went over to the Lee Loew Circuit and played over that time until spring when they went to the Middle West. Only two weeks ago the team announced intentions of touring the South and playing in the larger colored houses in the fall. Having been booked out of the United upsets all their former plans.
MILLIONS AT "MOVIES."
"An idea of the amazing growth of the moving picture industry in the last few years is given in figures compiled by Frank A. Tichenor, chairman of the first International Exhibition of the Moving Picture Arts to be held in the Grand Central Palace in the week of July 7," says the press.
"Tichenor says 3,600,000,000 persons patronized the moving picture theatres of this country last year. Many more are expected in the year to come, as theatres have been built by hundreds.
"Tichenor's figures, which are the first official ones ever prepared in this country, show $319,000,000 was received in quarters, dimes and nickels; that $80,000,000 is invested in the industry; that more than 200,000 persons are employed in it, and that 10,000,000 feet of picture films are produced weekly. They will be thrown on a screen in the exhibition.
"Curious are the statistics relating to the decrease in saloon licenses in some of the smaller cities, directly attributable to the wage earner's money going to the 'movies' instead of the poor man's club." The statistics will be illustrated by a moving picture called 'The. Shrinking Demijohn,' in which a monster demijohn is made by means of trick photography to decrease in size, while at the same time a moving picture theatre grows from a toy size to its normal proportions."
HOW ABOUT THE NEGRO? Some weeks ago the following dispatch from Chicago was published in the daily papers: Jewish leaders in Chicago are planning a nation-wide boycott of the theatres presenting "scurrilous and debasing impersonations of the Hebrew type." At a meeting in the Hotel La Salle, attended by many prominent men and women, it was decided to appoint a committee of nine to cooperate with the many Jewish organizations throughout the United States in an attempt to drive caricatures of Jews from the stage. Judge Hugo Pam presided.
It was proposed to rid the stage of the objectionable "Jewish comedian" through a concerted attack upon the box office. The method to be pursued will be similar to that adopted by the Drama League in stamping its disapproval of unworthy plays. Bulletins will be sent to every Jew in Chicago announcing that a play objectionable to the Jewish race is being given at a certain theatre. Especially the portrayal of the Jew as a mean, slinking individual, given to vulgarity and villainy, disapproved of. Honest characterization of the Jew was declared commendable, but a protest was made against the introduction of immoral songs and questionable speeches in the impersonation of the type.
"Such a representation," said Judge Pam. "is vile, outrageous and undignified, and tends only to create prejudice. Many theatregoers are unacquainted with the Jewish character, and they get their impressions of the race from the stage Jew. As a result race prejudice is fostered. Many of the caricatures that we have seen are unfair and dishonorable, and tend only to bring ridicule upon our people. If we have our foibles and weaknesses we do not mind seeing them reflected on the stage. All we demand is fair play."
The agitation of the Irish-Americans which brought about the elimination of stage lampoons on the Celtic race was commended. James O'Shaughnessy of the Irish Fellowship League is to give the conference the benefit of his advice.
Rabbi Tobias Schanfarber said that the majority of theatre patrons were Jews, and that if they protested as a body against the "blackguardian of their race" the theatrical producers would be quick to remedy the evil.
Prof. Ernest Freund, of the University of Chicago, said that the line should be drawn between the harmless and the vicious. The harmless caricature of the Jew, he said, was merely amusing. A. B. Seilenfreund, Grand Secretary of Benai Brith, objected to the portrayal of the Jew as a pawnbroker and an incendiary, and said that such plays as "The Melting Pot" had done more to injure the race than the lampoons of low comedy.
POTTER'S NOTE. The Jews are making a crime against surreptuous stage types which deceive their race. The truth have been equally active along similar lines, and the stage race America to-day more than any other race. What are we going to do about it?

The Twenty-fifth Infantry is Stationed in Hawaii.
At Schedul Barracks, H. T., Wednesday evening, May 28th, Mrs. Nettie Poindexter Scott and Mrs. Maggie D. McInham Reynolds gave a musical recital to the Scott Literary Society at the Post School Hall. The Twenty-fifth Infantry and other regiments of the garrison turned out en masse.
Mrs. Nettle Poindexter Scott, planlist, is the wife of Chapplain Oscar J. W. Stetson of the Twenty-fifth Infantry.
Mrs. Scott enhanced a comprehensive knowledge of the power of the pianoforte. Her defenses of manipulation with power to understand and interpter her subjects gives a high degree of one and finish to her playing.
Mrs. Maggie, D. McInham Reynolds, the wife of First Sergeant Ellijah Reynolds of the Twenty-fifth Infantry, has a full, rich soprano voice of considerable range and of sweetness of tone. She is a graduate of Wilberforce University. All her numbers were appraised by a judge and a judge and favorable comment of the audience. The following is the program in detail:

The Twenty-fifth Infantry band is under the leadership of Chief Musician Leslie M. King. The numbers rendered by the band were of a very high order. The band gives four or five open air concerts every week. One of these concerts is given as a part of the weekly meeting of the Scott Literary Society, which is rendered as the first part of the program.
Chaplain Oscar J. W. Scott is responsible for the organization and excellence of the literary society. The society was organized some years ago in the Philippines. Mrs. Mamie King, wife of Chief Musician King, is president and Matthew Bell of the band is secretary.
Chapain Oscar J. W. Scott, Twenty-fifth Infantry, holds services at 6:45 on Sunday evenings at the Post Chapel. A violin solo, a number by the regimental quartet (Mesars, Murphy, Davis, Austin and Davis), or some other musical number, is always an enjoyable part of the service. The prayer-meetings Thursdays, and the Eppworth League Sunday evenings are well attended. The post chapel is cruciform in shape, with a high vaulted ceiling, and is beautifully finished and furnished within. It will seat about 300 persons. Twenty-fifth Infantry is "cleaning up" in athletics on this island. At the field meet in Honolulu on Washington's birthday, the Twenty-fifth took five of the prizes, three cups and two medals, one a gold medal, won by Private Williamson, of Company "L" in the 200-yard dash.
The post baseball league, composed of the Fourth Cavalry, the First Field Artillery, the First Infantry and the Twenty-fifth Infantry teams, are playing a series of games for the championship and a substantial monetary prize. Up to the present writing the Twenty-fifth has played six games and won six, two of them being "shut-out" games.
The open reception given by the literary society was a successful affair. A short program constituted the first part and an "eat fest" the second part. The committee, Mrs. King, John A. Collins of F Company, First Sergeant Flint of E Company, Corporal Mills of F Company, M. Moblerly of the Hospital Corps, Mrs. Austin, Mr. Bell of the band, Mrs. Payne and Mrs. Barnes made careful and thorough arrangements.

The Man Farthest Down By
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.

IN MEMORIAM
LANE—in loving memory of our mother, Mrs. Sarah C. Lane, who entered into rest July 11, 1912, at her home, 636 West Third street, Plainfield, N. J.
What she was she became through adoring faith in Christ. A Christian who passed from that life to her, she was a general assembly; to stand before God, the Judge of all among the spirits of the just made perfect. The touching burial tribute of her pastor, the Rev. Tildon, based on 'the pilgrimage of the children of Israel, after these months, comforts her children scattered in various places. They journeyed to Palestine with their faces toward the swirling.
We shall meet beyond the river.
