MEMBERSHIP IS GROWING Seventeen New Clubs Have Been Added to Federation, Which now Has a Membership of 4,000 Women. Special to THE NEW YORK ACE. BUFFALO, N. Y., July 8.—The fifth annual meeting of the Empire State Federation of Women's Clubs convened in the city of Buffalo Thursday, July 3, for a two days' session. It was largely attended. From a point of harmony and concentration of purpose the session was the most profitable as well as pleasant in the history of the organization. Questions of vital importance to the race were spiritedly discussed, often precipitating a lively interest on the part of the participants. The federation placed itself on record as being in favor of Woman's Suffrage, as being opposed to the use of tobacco, smoking, etc., by our women and the use of chewing gum in public places, especially by girls. The delegates were comfortably quartered and everything possible was done by the Phyllis Wheatley Club, of which the federation was the guest, to make its stay in the "Queen City" a memorable one. Reception Tendered Delegates. A delightful reception was tendered the delegates at the Michigan Street Baptist Church last Friday evening and an automobile ride was provided for the Brooklyn delegation at noon by Miss Emma Murray, a former Brooklynite. On Saturday at noon the delegates in sight-seeing cars toured the city and were elated with its beautiful parks, the system of which is among the most approved of the world. Too much cannot be said of Mrs. M. B. Talbert and those associated with her in the splendid entertainment of the Empire State Federation. Everywhere were heard expressions of gratitude for the splendid homes in which we found ourselves. Mme. C. J. Walker, the hair culturist, spoke to the federation concerning her extensive business in Indianapolis and urged the women to strike out along industrial lines. The Michigan Street Baptist Church in the presence of a good audience. The president's annual address was replete with gratitude for past success and wholesome advice for future development.

The New MANY AT COMMENCEMENT Diplomax Awarded Graduates of Howard Orphanage and Industrial School — Exhibit of Children's Work Shown. The commencement exercises of the Brooklyn Howard Orphanage and Industrial School, Kings Park, L. I., were held in the chapel, June 27, at 2.30 p. m. A program arranged by the principal, Miss Mabel Dublin, was rendered by the children and graduates. Mr. Hines, chief accountant in the comptroller's office, was present and addressed the graduates.

WANT BOLDEN TO HEAD A NEW CHURCH Members of Mother Zion Church Who Are Opposed to His Removal Said to be Secretly Working to Organize Another Congregation—Former Pastor to be Offered Pastor Upon Return to America. When the Rev. Richard M. Bolden, former pastor of Mother Zion A. M. Z. Church, returns from Europe, he will probably be met with a request by a number of his supporters, who are indignant because of the scant consideration and courtesy shown them by the bishops at the last session of the annual conference held at Mons., when their petition for the return of the Mc. Bolden to Mother Zion as pastor for another year was ignored, that he withdraw from the conference and establish an independent church. That such a plan is contemplated is shown in the fact that the officers of the white church located in Harlem have been approached with tentative inquiries as to whether their church property could be purchased or not. It is not known as yet just what consideration was given to the inquiries by the officials of the church. It is said by some of his friends and supporters that Mr. Bolden, whose intellectual attainment is far above the average, has given considerable study to the scientific aspect of the various religious faiths and that he has some original ideas as to the principles and tenets of Christianity, and that if he can be persuaded to see the matter as his supporters see it, the new church will be established along practically original lines. Bolden Counseled Peace. Mr. Bolden, when he sailed for Europe, where he has gone to attend the World's Sunday School Congress as a delegate from the New York Conference of the A. M. E. Zion Church, with credentials signed by Bishop Walters, advised his friends and former parishioners, who were at the pier in large numbers, to abide by the decision of the bishop which took him from the pastorate of Mother Zion and sent him to the Yonkers Church, and to give their cordial and hearty support to the new pastor of Mother Zion. The present movement, it is understood, has been generated since he sailed and is entirely without Mr. Bolden's knowledge. As far as can be learned there are a number of the members of Mother Zion interested in this movement and their idea is to secure, if possible, options on an established place of worship before the return of the Rev. Mr. Bolden, so that when he does return they can be in a position to make a definite and substantial proposition in regard to establishing the new church. The promoters of the plan are keeping under cover, it seems, because if their identities were made public and for any reason the scheme fell through, every promoter would be persona non grata in Mother Zion and would probably be made the object of concerted persecution indirectly, if not directly. This movement grows out of the fact that at the session of the annual conference a request from a large proportion of the membership of Mother Zion went up to Bishop Hood for the retention of the Rev. Mr. Bolden as pastor of that church. This request was ignored and Mr. Bolden was transferred to the church at Yonkers.

Pittsburgh, Pa., July 9—A mass meeting of colored people was held in Washington Park Auditorium, Friday morning, July 4 at 10:30 o'clock, under the auspices of the Inder-Denomina- tional Colored Ministerial Association of Pittsburgh and vicinity, for the purpose of expressing indignation con- cerning the recent decision of the United States Supreme Court which declared the Civil Rights Bill to be unconstitutional; and to adopt resolutions calling upon the colored people throughout the country to co- operate in a general movement to prosecute adequate protection. The Rev. W. L. Lee, pastor of the John Wesley A. M. E. Zion Church, presided, and the Rev. P. A. Scott, pastor of the Wylie Avenue A. M. E. Church, was secretary. Addresses were delivered by Dr. J. H. Dwelle, of Braddock, Pa., Robert L. Vann and Dr. Israel S. Loe of Pittsburgh. Strong resolutions were maximally adopted by the large gathering. NEW JERSEY COMMISSION IS NOW SEEKING FUNDS Legislature Fails to Make an Additional Appropriation as Asked EXPOSITION ON SMALL SCALE Celebration Will Be Held at Young's Pier, Atlantic City, at a Cost of $2,500, Owing to Money Shortage. The fiftieth anniversary of the Emancipation Proclamation will be celebrated by the citizens of New Jersey in September at Young's Pier, Atlantic City, the celebration to last one week, at a proposed expenditure of $2,500. The arrangements are in the hands of a commission appointed by the State, consisting of three Negroes and four white men. The white men are J. H. Hampton, chairman. Boonton; T. C. Sensor, State Superintendent of Schools, secretary; Trenton; Wm. Riddle, Mayor of Atlantic City; W. C. Lesler, Trenton. The Negroes are Dr. C. T. Branch, Camden; Dr. W. I. Roundtree, Trenton; the Rev. A. Mark Harris, Jersey City. Headquarters of the commission are in the Mechanics' Building, East State street, Trenton, with J. M. Queen as stenographer. The State appropriated $20,000 for the celebration, $10,000 to be available during 1912, and $10,000 during 1913. It was originally provided that the celebration should be held jointly with the Philadelphia celebration, but because the Jerseyites became dissatisfied at the recognition accorded them by the Philadelphia commission, the plan was dropped. Only $2,000, mostly paid out in salaries, was used of the first $10,000, the balance of $8,000 reverting to the State's treasury under the act appropriating the money. After severance of ties with the Philadelphia celebration with the New Jersey Legislature appended to and an act passing giving the Jersey commission authority to proceed with the celebration in New Jersey. An additional appropriation of $15,000 was asked for, with the return of the $8,000 which had reverted, but this request was refused and the commission had to be satisfied with the $10,000 available during 1913 to work with. Quite a Sum for Salaries. Up to this time about $5,000 of this sum has been expended. A civil service examination for organizers was held, with the result that the Rev. Solomon Porter Hood, of Trenton, was appointed chief organizer at a salary of $100 a month, with $25 monthly for traveling expenses; Allain Locke, of Camden, who stood at the head of the list in the examination; Counselor E. R. Haynes, of Jersey City, who stood third; the Rev. John A. White, of Trenton, and Mrs. Pauline Baxter, of Newark, were appointed as assistant organizers, at a salary of $75 a month, with allowance of $25 for traveling expenses. These appointments were made in September. 2. Mr. Haynes served till March 1913, when he was opeper because he is alleged, his services not satisfactory to the commission. After being appointed as an organizer, Mr. Locke accepted a position of the faculty of Howard' University, Washington, but continued to draw his salary from the Emancipation Commission of New Jersey. It is reported that at least one of the members of the commission questioned Mr. Locke's ability to give the commission service commensurate with the salary paid him, his duties with Howard necessarily requiring his presence in Washington the major portion of the time. The chief organizer, however, it is said, championed Mr. Locke's cause, and declaimed that his duties as organiser were due to service in Mr. Jersey about twice a week, and that he filled all his engagements. As a consequence, Mr. Locke continued to draw his salary and traveling allowance from the commission, and, of course, his salary from Howard University. A Paucity of Results. The commission has not had, altogether plain sailing. Dissension has come into its ranks from various sources from time to time, to such an extent, it is said, that at one time Dr. Roundtree, one of the colored members, and Mr. Sensor, the white secretary, were not even on speaking terms. One of the organizers is reported to have said on occasions that he was having his salary and expenses "handed to him" without having to work for it—that it was the softest "graft" he had ever had. One of the commissioners is reported as saying that the secretary dominated the commission and on frequent occasions had dictated to the organizers the policy to be pursued without paying his fellow-members the compliment of consulting them. This commissioner intimated that the chief organizer, in fact, was being controlled and influenced entirely by the secretary. It was at first proposed that the celebration would be an exposition of the industrial and educational, progress of the Negroes of New Jersey, demonstrated by actual exhibits of the various branches of industry, illustrated by practical workmen in the different lines. The educational progress was also intended to have concrete demonstration. It was LOOKING FOR BUTLER Officials Say He Came to New York, Obtained a Stay of Proceedings in Collins' Case and then Suddenly Disappeared—His Whereabouts are Unknown. The Rev. C. Leroy Butler, against whom a body execution was issued under a judgment obtained by L. C. Collins on March 13, 1913, for the inappropriation by Butler of funds belonging to Collins, returned to the city a short time ago. It is alleged that to escape arrest under the body execution Butler made an application to the court to be allowed to disprove the allegation, and obtained a stay, of proceedings for ten days. The application was granted upon terms which were not compiled with, and the Rev. Mr. Butler, it is said, left the state, so that the judgment now stands as it did before he came back. It is declared by Charles E. Toney, 80 Wall street, attorney for Collins, that the application by Butler to appear and disprove the allegations was not made in good faith, but was for the purpose of gaining time to stay in the state for such period as he desired without being arrested. The present whereabouts of the Rev. Mr. Butler are unknown, but the body execution under the judgment stands now in its original force, and if he returns within the jurisdiction of the New York court at any time he will be liable to arrest. COLORED HELP NOT VALUED AT ASYLUM Miss Rosa L. Williams, Former Head Nurse of Colored Orphan Asylum Maintains the Color Line is Drawn at Institution—Tells of Her Experience with White Heads. The color line is drawn at the Colored Orphan Asylum at Riverdale-on-the-Hudson, according to Miss Rosa L. Williams, who was head nurse at the institution for four years and who was recognized as one of the home's most efficient and useful officials. Miss Williams tendered her resignation as head nurse March 15 and left the institution April 19, refusing to work any longer under Miss Mary Sheurman, the white matron, against whom she had lodged the charge of incompetency. Miss Williams declares she can also prove that Miss Sheurman had a preference for white help. Miss Mary Walsh, as white nurse who succeeded Miss Williams, is said to have held the statement that when Miss Sheurman was negotiating to bring her to Riverdale-on-the-Hudson she asked to be permitted to remain a week in New York City before taking up her new duties. Miss Sheurman is alleged to have vigorously demurred against this plan, saying to Miss Walsh: "I am in a hurry to get rid of the 'niggers.'" Miss Williams when seen by a representative of the. Age consented to tell of conditions at the Colored Orphan Asylum as she knew them, but first asked that a statement be published denying the charge that at her instigation articles have been published in the papers about chaotic conditions at the home. "I wish you would say for me that I deny having had any thing to do with the articles in question," declared Miss Williams. The following interview was given the title representative by Miss Williams. "Colored Help Net Highly Appreciated." "Mitch has been said about inefficient colored help at the Colored Orphan Home, but nothing has been said about those who have been a success. There are many who have made good and who are making good, but their services are not highly appreciated. If proper appreciation was shown, some promoted to better positions, but it seems to be the policy of the institution to appoint white people to the best positions, even though inefficient. Among those who are doing good work at the Colored Orphan Asylum are Miss Lillian Jackson, Mrs. Nedora Henderson, Mrs. Elizabeth Alexander, nursery mothers who have permeated a cheerful, helpful, home-like spirit over the cottages and whose Christian and moral influence has meant much to the institution. They are copying an executive position at an institution as the Colored Orphan Asylum is too far from the sphere of the Negro children to make themselves felt. They do not come in contact with children the same as the colored officials. "When Mr. Barber became superintendent of the Colored Orphan Aylum he started out by seeking to teach the children how to earn money from the church and to improve competence on material things than he did on the religious and moral training of children. Force of circumstances would make any child who leaves the home strive to get money, but a child should be trained in moral and religious lessons." Has Largest Circulation DUBOIS SUED BY LARK FOR LIBEL Brooklyn Man Brings Suit in Supreme Court Asking For $5,000 Damages HOLD BIG MASS-MEETING Citizens Gather at Salem M. E. Church and Protest Against Unbusiness-like Methods of Commission. SENDS FOR COMMISSIONERS Gov. Suzler Has Requested Them to Come to Alison—Vice Chairman Taylor Assumed by Unknown Thugs. Summer H. Lark uses Prof. William E. B. DuBois for Ileal. Vice Chairman J. Henry Taylor consulted by unknown toughs. Gov. Sulzer orders commissioners to ban this week. Wood-Carr footing made unsuccessful attempt to get control of money on deposit in Fifth Avenue Bank. Big mass meeting of citizens held Monday evening at Salem M. E. Church and business methods of commission denounced. Incidents and accidents in connection with the Emancipation Proclamation Commission squabble are taking place with startling regularity. Members of the commission and the heads of the departments are at daggers' point and are giving their time and attention to quarreling among themselves instead of looking after the affairs of the proposed celebration. Professor William E. B. DuBois, one of the commissioners, and Sumner Lark, who resigned from the commission to become director general, have become involved in a legal suit which threatens to make conditions more complicated and unsettled. Director General Lark, through his attorneys, R. S. King and Louis A. Leavelle, Tuesday brought suit in the Supreme Court of Kings. County, asking for $5,000 damages for libel. It is alleged by the petitioner that Professor DuBois gave a statement to a local paper last week which was published with a motive to carry the impression that he was an injudicious, incompetent person who was attempting to unlawfully use and misapply large sums of money out of the $25,000 appropriated by the state for the celebration. That the publication of such a statement at the instance of Professor DuBois had injured his standing in the community is alleged. In his petition Mr. Lark also assert that Professor DuBois accused him it the published article of furnishing Tau. Ace with sensational news matter about the commission which the plaintiff denies. Criticise Commissioners Monday evening over four hundred colored citizens assembled at Sakem M. E. Church, 104 West 133d street, to protest against the unbusiness-like manner in which the commission is running things, to criticize the personnel of the commission and to speak a good work for Commissioner J. Henry Taylor. The Rev. F. A. Cullen, pastor of the church presided. Among the speakers were Fred R Moore, Louis A. Leavelle, D. E. Tobin; W. T. R. Richardson, Captain H. Herman Blunt and Mrs. Elizabeth Jones. Each speaker praised the heroic stance taken by Vice-Commissioner J. Hearn Taylor in refusing to be bullied, in doing things he thought improper. The Wood-Carr faction was severely censured for the part it is playing in retarding the work of the commission. The following resolutions were adopted, protesting against the misuse of the Emancipation Celebration funds: PREAMBLE—There comes a time in the life of every people when the opportunity presents itself for that people to show their right to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness; to show to the world what they have done to entitle them to the admiration of their fellow-men. --- Fifty years ago, after an expenditure of millions of money and the sacrifice of thousands of pachycardia patients, fathers were answered; prayers that were uttered by earnest bowed down souls; prayers that were uttered in the hedges and swamps; prayers that were uttered in the cotton fields and the corn; prayers that were uttered by bleeding hearts to Almighty God for deliverance from a cruel bondage through the great drought, through the great drought, Abraham Lincoln, and we entered into citizenship with no knowledge of the great economic and other life of life, and little appreciation of this new condition entailed upon us. Left to work out our own salvation and to fight the battle of life alone and unhanded, we have lost the courage to adversely criticize and criticize treason and discredit code. made of the most important land and new, and both hope and courage, we are preparing to render an account of our stewardship of cities of the great State of New York, and of mankind, chief executive of course, freedom and uncompromising, one of nature's noblest, in the person of His Excellency, WILLIAM SULLEM. WHEREAS: The work of production exhibition to show the industrial, educational and religious programs the colored people have made since their emancipation is being held up by bitter dissension among the members of the organization recently appointed by Gov. Suller. AND, WHEREAS: The best interest of the colored citizens of the State of New York, and the environment in which they live, account of the injection of politics into the proposed celebration. AND, WHEREAS: The colored citizens of the City and State of New York feel exceedingly grateful to Gov. Sulzer for signing the memorandum in this State, and signing the act appropriating $25,000 for the purpose of holding an exposition showing the progress made by the Negroes in their 50 years of freedom. BE IT RESOLVED: That we, in our meeting assembled, do not sympathise with the discountes shown Gov. Sulzer by certain members of the said commission, and do hereby strongly protest against making this exposition a political celebration. We indorse unreservedly the appointment as vice-chairman of the Commission of the Rev. J. Henry Taylor. BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED: That a copy of these resolutions be sent to Gov. Sulzer. Captain H. Herman Blunt, John M. Royall, W. T. R. Richardson, Robert L. Waring and the Rev. F. A. Cullen were appointed on a committee to visit Governor Sulzer at Albany and present the resolutions. This week representatives of the Wood-Carr faction are said to have called on the officials of the Fifth Avenue Bank to ascertain the status of Commissioner Taylor. They were once more told that no requisitions would be honored unless bearing the new vicechairman's signature. So far the commission is working without funds. Governor Sulzer has summoned the commissioners to Albany, as he is distressed with the way the business affairs of the commission have been conducted 'meeting' of the commission as held Monday evening and the object of going to a discussion ensued. Some of the commissioners were disposed to ignore the governor's summons. It is rumored that several of the commissioners will be requested to resign. One evening last week Vice-Chairman J. Henry Taylor was assaulted by unknown thugs while walking on Lenox avenue, near 136th street. He was attacked from the rear, but was not seriously injured. All attempts to learn the identity of Commissioner Taylor's assailants have been unsuccessful. FORMER BALTIMOREAN DIED IN KANSAS CITY Appointed to This New York Acc. Kansas City, Mo., July 8.

OCALA NEGROES WILL START SAVINGS BANK Special to The New York Age. Special to THE NEW YORK ACK. O. CALA, FLA., July 8.—George Giles, president; Joseph L. Wiley, first vice- president, and Frank P. Gadson, cashier, are officers of the Metropolitan Savings Bank, capital stock $25,000, to be opened in the new $20,000 building of the Met- ropolitan Realty and Investment Co. Magnolia street. The Negro business men of Ocala and Marion county have demonstrated their ability to make good in financial mat- ture.

I cannot begin to tell you all the benefits I have received since the arrival of the two specimens of Loadstones you sent me. For many years I was convinced that no person lived who was more unfortunate than myself. Loss in business; death of loved ones and other troubles too numerous to mention, were driving me to a state of frenzy. A friend told me to write you for information regarding the system of two Loadstones and their power. As a last resort I did so, and later purchased two of them. Since then the great change in my career has been so remarkable as to be almost beyond belief. My business increased rapidly, and not a thing has occurred to mar my state of happiness. You are at liberty to use to mar my stance on this letter as reference, for I believe it of the wonderful change in my life, through the power and influence of two Dear Sirs: Several weeks ago I foolishly laid th this letter as reference, for I believe it is my duty to let the World know through the power and influence of two Loadstones. Several weeks ago I foolishly laid the chamele bag containing the two Loadstones on the dresser and forgot them. Trouble began as of old; my husband was fretful and finding fault with everything. I was all out of sorts myself and wondered what had happened to cause so much discord all at once. Finally I remembered the Loadstones and began to search for them. A few days later I found them tucked away in my machine drawer where one of the children had put them. New everything, as far as I am concerned, is moving along nicely, but my husband, who laughed when the Loadstones first arrived, has changed his tune, and has sent you an order for a pair for himself. ```markdown ``` NES INSTEAD OF ONE NATIONAL MAGNETISM, ITS MARVELLOUS AND MACH GIVES WONDERFUL MENTAL AND BUCK, SUCCESS AND POWER, ALL RE- that strange, mysterious power that charms on, shape their thoughts, control their destin- master of every situation?

NEW JERSEY COMMISSION IS NOW SEEKING FUNDS (Continued from page 1.) to be the duty of the organizers to travel throughout the State, holding meetings at various points occurring actual births of the handiwork of the people in all lines of industrial endeavor. Nearly $7,000 has been expended in this direction. Now it is said that the paucity of results in this direction will cause the proposed celebration to be composed largely of demonstrations by means of charts. The loss to the commission of the $8,000 and the failure of the State to make an additional appropriation has caused the commission to inaugurate a State-wide canvass for funds. It is said that not only do the organizers canvass for funds, but that a number of other persons are employed on a commission basis. All contributors of 50 cents or more are given a certificate issued by the commission. The statement is made as coming from one of the commissioners that when the Legislature was appealed to for additional funds one of the legislators was told why the State commission for more money when the commission had only used $2,000 of the first $10,000, and had nothing tangible to show for even that money. A meeting of the commission will be held next week at Trenton, and it is intimated that it will be rather warm in its nature. Mr. Collaizzi $5 Readings mailed 50c.

There are more valuable things to contend for and enjoy than that of freedom to marry the women of other races than one's own, among which are the rights of equal participation in the advantages of the government and its manifold opportunities to vote and be voted for, to make an honest living and to be protected in the enjoyment of life and property without molestation or despoilment by the greedy, envious or malicious, powerful enough to do so. There have been many occurrences here in New York of late days that prove that our view of the situation is the correct one. A writer in the New York Sun says: We repeat, Former Governor Hadley of Missouri is a great American. He was not in good voice at Trenton, because of much lecture harranguing oh the Chautaqua circuit, on which discredited, thrown-out or disgruntled politicians turn a fancy dollar, but he said much in thirty minutes of the commonplace sort we knew about and nothing of "some new thing" we desired and went to hear about. He is not near as great an American as Edward Caspar Stokes of New Jersey, who introduced him, and whom we prefer in advance over Gov. Hadley to succeed President Wilson in the White House. Gov. Hadley says there are no radical differences in the platform and policies of the Republican and Progressive parties, and he wants them to get together, weed out Southern delegates (who, we add, have been selling votes to Northern and Western Republican candidatorial thieves since 1872), and adopt the direct primary, and, incidentally, Herbert S. Hadley of Missouri. Fine. But we have been through Missouri, if not from it also. The Point: In opening his remarks Gov. Hadley said: "I find myself in the position of the old Darky when the Judge asked him, 'What is your name?' 'Mah name, sahi, am Joshway.' 'Joshau?' 'Yah, sah!' 'Are you any kin to the Joshua that made the sun stand still?' After scratching his head thoughtfully, the old Darky said, 'No. Jedge; I ain' no kin ter that Joshway: It's kin ter de Joshway dat made de moon shine.'" "The failure of Sergeant Littman to get a commission in the National Guard does not surprise me. I know from my own experience that a Jew has no chance for promotion. I belonged to the Twenty-second Regiment, which has a lot of Jews in it, and they do their duty. The Jews make good soldiers, as good as the Americans, Irish, Germans, Negroes or Italians. If the Jews had had the chance to fight for this country perhaps the civil war would not have lasted as long as it did. You would not now hear so much about the Irish Brigade or about Siegel's Corps. The house roared, but we, we smiled not. Why? Because the black man had claimed to be kin to the white children of the white widow of the white moon, and not of the black children of the black father of them all of the sun that burns things black. We knew that the white Hadley had failed to grasp the point and did not need to laugh at his ignorance, nor at his vulgarity in handling the old Darky. The text in question is as follows: "Then spake Joshua to the Lord in the day when the Lord delivered up the Amorites before the children of Israel, and he said in the sight of Israel, 'Sun, stand thou still upon Gideon; and thou, moon in the valley of Ajalon!' And the sun stood still and the moon stayed, until the people had avenged themselves upon their enemies. Is it not written in the book of Jasher? So the sun stood still in the midst of heaven and hasted not to go down about a whole day. And there was no day like that before it or after it, that the Lord heartened unto the voice of a man: for the Lord fought for Israel.' (Joshua. 10:12-14). "What we should have is a regiment of our own race, and we would show the country a regiment, as we have the money and men to do it. "JACOB HERTZ. "New York, June 30." What authority has the New York Sun for treating the term "Negro" as a common noun designating a thing: presumably color, instead of as a proper noun designating a race in the United States; a race in the same sense as the Jew, the Irish and others? None whatever. It is intended as an insult, the degradation of a whole race to the sexless neuter of things in no wise person. As the Sun persists in the offense, it makes itself the offender. The versatile anthropologists of the Sun could find some instructive occupation in tracing the relation of the American negro to the people of the Black Mountain of Montenegro, prominent in the recent Italian war, who were separated from their brethren of Africa at the Tower Babel, as the name of the race follows the individual as trade follows the flag. tablished the unpleasant fact that the prejudice is very general among the officers of the National Guard, and that on that account the Jews should have a regiment of their own, if they desire one. As a fugitive sign that the Jews are wrathful as well as very much disgusted at the rapidly growing prejudice against them, here in New York and throughout where Southern oratorial blackguards the nation, last week, at an open-air meeting of a Protestant church, a Jew evangelist screamed at one of the speakers, "You are a liar! You are not telling the truth about the Jews!" They just been jarred from their Dan to put him out and the police magistrate Beershela by the action of the Greek placed him under $300 bond to keep the peace. If he had been a Negro evangelist' and if wrathful Negroes who attend public meetings of all sorts should arise and denounce the liars who lie about the Negroes as often as they do it, there would be much, rioting at nearly every one of the religious chaucasus during the present summer where Southern oratorial blackguards appear, but the denunciation would break up the scandal and next year is evangelist screamed at one of the speakers, "You are a liar! You are not telling the truth about the Jews!" They just been jarred from their Dan to put him out and the police magistrate Beershela by the action of the Greek The Negroes of New York have been fortunate enough to secure the authorization of a regiment of their own of the National Guard of New York -State. They could wisely help the Jews of New York to do the same. The investigation authorized by Governor Sulzer into the charges of Sergeant Littman that he was denied advancement by the offices of his regiment because he is a Jew es- --- the American League, which has the hops of the Chicago Cubs and New York, because there are too many Jews in it. "These prejudice is given as the reason for publishing the chapter, which has been in existence for fifty-six years and has distinguished alumni," says the New York Times. So! The World Almanac for 1912 gives the number of Jews in the United as only 11,625,656, and in the United States as only 1,903,926; while there are some 905,000 in Greater New York. There are 10,000,000 Negroes in the United States alone, but 121,000 only in Greater New York. When he beaten by the Irish Michael M Bolden of New York and Paul, James Biehaugger, Jr., of Arkansas, in seeking accommodations in London hotels, as reported in the last issue of The Am, are significant, because such a condition did not exist prior to July 4, 1916, when Jack Johnson whipped Jim Jeffries in the Reno prize ring and the white world-wide denunciation of the fact that a black man should whip a white one. The fact of the matter is, the black race cannot be made to fall on the rise of a black princefighter, and the white race cannot be made to rise on the fall of a white princefighter, unless the white race insists upon making color and brute prowess tests of manhood instead of good works. The white race seems to be trying to do that and will get the hard fall it is wrestling for. We sympathize with Dr. Bolden and his friend, but the British people who have come to sanction such treatment of Christian preachers and teachers need our sympathy most, and we emphatically deny it to them. In the language of the Scripture, "Let the sow return to her wallow and the dog to his vomit," as those of them of white America have done, and which we refuse to condone. The persecution of the Jew and Negro by the Christian nations, and by them alone, of the nations, began with the introduction of the Christian religion in Rome soon after the death of Jesus, in the ministry of Saint Paul to the Gentiles, and they will be judged by that ministry in the fullness of time. The American Negro need not be discouraged in the face of the race prejudice nightmare that has been drawn about him. Far from it, but he cannot afford to "dance and make merry;" the duty is upon him to front the situation as a serious man, thoughtful as a man, and not as a little child, thoughtless as a little child. The Jew has been doing it with more and more success for nearly two thousand years, and is still doing it. So can and must do the American Negro. JACK JOHNSON OUTWITS HIS UNCLE SAM. GOV. HADLEY OF MISSOURI AND "THE BLACK JOSHUA." GOV. HADLEY OF MISSOURI AND "THE BLACK JOSHUA." It is a notorious fact that children, animals and insects are irresistibly drawn to fire, and are never satisfied that they should not play with it until they are burned or singed by it. The experience comes high, but they insist upon having it. Grown-ups are much the same in the things they don't understand but earnestly desire to play with, to show that they can do it, if for no other reason. Politicians of all sorts are prone to bolster their cause by comparing themselves to all the good men dead and queuing them to prove it. Thus Thomas Jefferson, Daniel Webster, Henry Clay and Abraham Lincoln have been used and abused in such service so generally that neither of them would recognize himself if he should possibly see him in the caricatures. "Mr. Jack Johnson and his white wife, with eighteen big trunks and two automobiles," are on the high seas, somewhere between Chicago and Judge Carpenter and St. Petersburg and the great White Tsar. This recital in a complex sentence of a concrete fact reduced to a scare headline in the Daily Hot Blast would read: "Jack Johnson Outwits His Uncle Sam—Jumps His Bail Bond and Escapes to Europe." Awful! But not entirely accurate, as the $15,000 bail bond cannot legally be adjudged as forfeited until Mr. Johnson fails to answer to the sentence of the Federal Court on appeal, in Chicago, next November. In the meantime Mr. Johnson will remain somewhere in Europe, if he can, and return at the appointed time to face the court, or remain away and forfeit the $15,000 bail bond. Which will he do? That is his business. Former President Roosevelt is and has been a great offender in this matter. During the campaign last year he took entire possession of Abraham Lincoln and his works and made them his own. It was heroic but highly unjust to the dead Lincoln. During his term as President Col. Roosevelt took entire charge of the Negro and rode him and his problem so hard that on reaching Brownsville, Tex., a grease spot on the map, he threw him, the Negro, down at Brownsville so hard and flat that he, the Negro, is still dazed from the effects of the throw-down. At the Chicago convention Col. Roosevelt magnetized the plus Progressive white hosts with the war cry, "We stand at Armageddon and battle for the Lord." He did not know what he meant. When the hosts gathered at the November elections the Almighty G whipped Col. Roosevelt and his Lord to a standstill. He should have read the text (Rev., 16: 14-21), in which the name of the Lord does not appear, with more understanding before adopting it bodily as his own. Former Governor Herbert S. Hadley, one of the seven Governors who petitioned Col. Roosevelt before the Republican convention met at Chicago last year to stand for the nomination as against President Taft, but who refused to bolt the Republican party as Col. Roosevelt did, made a short address to the Republican chairman of county committees of New Jersey, in the Broad Street Theatre. Trenton, Saturday, June 28, in the afternoon. The writer was there at the time and heard whom Former Governor Edward Caspar Stokes introduced as possibly the next Republican occupant of the White House, speak of the dead history and the future hopes of the Republican. Mr. Hadley is what is known as a great American. So he is, too great a a one to be the nominee of the Republican party by our support and with our sympathy. Should he get the nomination in despite of us as the candidate of the party, we should support him as against any candidate of the Democratic or Progressive parties. What is the matter with him? As far as we are concerned, we consider him structurally wrong on the Negro question, and we do not believe he can reconstruct himself on it. Johnson slipped out of Chicago last week, with a through ticket to a port in France, while the Federal detectives designated to shadow him were off their guard, and connected with his wife and other belongings at Montreal, in Canada, where he "took the steamship." The white American passengers, the white American negpapers said, "were much disgusted at having Johnson and his wife in the first cabin with them." We do not doubt it. But what of it? White Americans of all sorts have devoured enough black blood and spirit for quite three hundred years past to keep them in a raw condition of disgust for quite three hundred years to come. "As ye sow so shall ye reap," was not written in the sand, but "upon the stone the builders rejected," and cannot be washed out with water but with tears and blood. Of course the Federal authorities at Chicago and Washington "kept the wires hot" in the effort to intercept Johnson and his belongings, and have them returned to the United States, but there was no law to cover the case. He was only "a tourist in transit," and could not be detained, however willing the Canadian Government was to gratify the Government of the United States by fetching Johnson under "the disorderly" and "undesirable person" rule. Johnson's escape gave the Southern Government at Washington a galvanic shock, about which blue lightning has played as about a trolley wire in distress. The daily newspapers were afflicted over the escape with hysterical headlines that shrieked. We have no sympathy with Jack Johnson's sort of ways with women, and have said so repeatedly; nor have we any sympathy with the sort of ways of our Federal Government in dealing with Jack Johnson and other black and off-color people; when Jack Johnson, therefore, outwits the Federal Government we smile Sphynxy and keep our opinion at home. IS PROTESTANTISM DOOMED? Bishop Nealy of the Methodist Episcopal Church does not believe in the higher criticism of the Bible and says "The church to-day must preserve the Bible or Protestantism is doomed. It is time to preach not something new, but the grand old Bible." The color line is drawn so tightly in Bishop Nealy's great church that white and black preachers are not allowed to meet in the same conferences and the black conferences are not allowed to have black bishops to preside over them. One must accept, and are urgently expected to be grateful for separate conferences and white bishops. Separation of the membership of the church on the color line is equally pronounced and well defined. Such is the general practice of Protestantism. The day of preaching the Word is past; the day of doing the Works of the Word has arrived, and Protestantism, which has swallowed the Word whole for nineteen centuries, now halks at the Works, and is threatened with loss of spiritual power because of that. It is not more preachment of higher or lower criticism of the Bible that Protestantism needs and is dying for lack of, but more practice of Biblical philosophy. Hurrah for the first company of the first Negro regiment of the National Guard of New York, the first state and the best in the nation of 48 states. Prof. Hugh M. Browne, who has resigned as principal of the institute for Colored Youths, at Cheyney, Pa., has done a good and lasting work in that institution. Salmon Brown, the only surviving son of John Brown, is living at Portland, Ore., at the age of 77 years. He has had ten children and is now a cripple. Superintendent Barber, of the Colored Orphan Asylum insists in the last issue of The Age that there is no color line in his institution and invites citizens to visit the institution and see conditions for themselves. Very good. The Democratic broom has swept the Negro clean out of the public service in the Southern states, where the appointment vested in the President or his Cabinet officers. Now for those in public service in the Northern and Western states what of them? Former President Taft, who has dropped forty pounds of flush since he left the White House, says Senator Elihu Root, of New York, led him to the presidency, but he neglected to state who led him away from it. The two names should be linked in history as cause and effect. New York City should not be alone in having a large and influential representation at the Business League meeting in Philadelphia, August 20; all the big and little towns on the Hudson river, which have a thriving Negro population, and the large cities from Albany to Buffalo should be well represented. The price of beef has risen again. It is now $9.20 per 100 pounds at the stock yards. In the last two-weeks it has risen 60 cents per 100, and the packers predict still higher, prices. What are we going to do about it? Eat more bread and onions or tomatoes and no beef. Meat eating is a beautiful habit at its best and worst. In hot countries the people wear white clothes; in cold countries the people wear black and dark clothes. The people wear the same colors of their hair, fur, and skin. Now, why is that? Why should black and white folks fight each other about the color of their skins, which they did, not give themselves? "What fools these mortals be!" quotes the comic 'Park for motto.' President Wilson decided not to attend the grand reunion of veterans on the Gettysburg battle field, July 4, although the Federal Government had charge of it, but changed his mind when Northern Democrats showed him it would create a scandal for him not to be present. Great Virginian we have for President from New Jersey: "We shall not see his like again," and are very glad of it. The celebration of the battle of Gettysburg, which occurred fifty years ago, on July 4, was made the occasion of a 50,000 hugging embrace by the veterans of the Blue and the Gray, of the North and the South, "We one people and country," they embraced with one voice: "Let the veterans of the Grand Army of the Republic and of the Confederate Union unite as one organization!" was heard amidst the hum of the 50,000 voices. But the Negro veterans there looked on in silence and listened to the Rebel Yell without responding to it. Former President Roosevelt appears to have the Wanderlust as well as the Wonderlust. He wants to go everywhere and to see and know all things. It is announced that he will visit South America and be gone two years, returning in sufficient time to make all the trouble possible in the next section. Roosevelt died in years ago when he returned from Africa and went to Saratoga and amashed the Republican party of New York into small particles. The man who smashes his maker and kills himself doing it has a hard time to come to life again and make a maker of his own make. Why did not Secretary of the Navy Josephus Daniels, of North Carolina, advise the Brazilian Secretary of Navy not to allow the Brazilian battleship Minas Geraes not to visit Norfolk or other Southern ports, as they would not be made welcome on account of the off-color of officers and seamen: What's the matter with Josephus? Has he lost in the Navy Department the courage and diplomacy he should have learned in the editorial department of the Raleigh Observer? It looks that a mature man of courage the Democratic administration is pilling up for future settlement on account of race and color with brown and yellow Japanese and Chinese and black and yellow Latin Americans. True, "whom the gods would destroy they first make mad." --- A Chinaman, 140 years old, on the way from Cuba to Chinn, died in New York last week of old age. His death was sudden. He was a physician and had lived many years in Cuba, but the home fever came upon him and he set his face toward the Celestial Kingdom only to die on the way. But he will not sleep in the land of the strangers. His friends will take his remains to China and bury him among his fathers. There is another aged pilgrim now in New York from Dahomey, in Africa, and but recently we had one with us, a learned priest, from Persia in Asia. So also an Arab died here two weeks ago and was buried with the funeral rites of the brooding Desert of Sahara, but his remains will soon be taken to his native land for final interment. Strange pilgrims, all, in a strange land. The grappe jude policy of the State Department and the "Back to Water" policy of the White House appear to have taken possession of Dr. Abbarg in a way to astonish his German fellow-citizen. The disposition to eat and drink laked cold beverages of all sorts to excess has become so national in character, both in fact and in cold beverages it well might impossible to reshape the offenders with any "Don't" not backed up by a Federal-statute and the army and navy. As a matter of fact, they thy and hours and days in June, and as Anyone knows it is difficult to keep cool even in a freezer. United States to Aid Liberia. To the Editor of The Ace: In the issue of The Age of the 3d inst. there appeared a special despatch from Washington, dated July 2, bearing the caption "Liberia Will Get No Aid from the U. S. A." The caption from the headline is apologetic, I am inclined to this opinion since the body of the dispatch did not coincide with its caption. I am quite sure that you will correct this misleading headline when I inform officially the governor, been said given by the State Department of Washington to warrant the announcement that Liberia will get no aid from the United States. To the contrary the American State Department has given assurance to the Liberian government that the United States will stand by the arrangement of the former administration and the Government has been no impressed by official correspondence. It is fair to the American Government, that the fact should be stated. Liberia has enemies, and such a misleading publication, from so powerful a journal as The New York Age, which is for political speculation, and at the same time, might also create a condition of unrest in the republic, that would prove disastrous in its consequences. For these reasons I respectfully ask that the corrections be made. Respectfully. ERNEST LYON, L. C. G. THE PRESIDENT'S COLORED FRIENDS. (From the Washington Star.) Mr. Wilson's woes multiply. Although master of the situation as it stands, the President must wait a bit for the new tariff measure. It may reach him in the form he desires, and then move to the form he wants, and刮 wrist the senatorial lip and his pen. The measure is just starting on the most perilous stake of its journey, and Republicans and Progressives, united, are "laying" for it. But there is the currency measure. A modest estimate associates seventeen kinds of difficulties with that. Does it disguise rag money inflation—the terror of the country? Is there possible under it the creation of a political machine more powerful than ever was created with the spoils of office? Does it have the potential to national banking system? And so on. And now come the colored Democrats demanding recognition for their work in last year's campaign. Taking their cue from their white associates, they want to know where they come in at the bottom of the pie chart. And how soon are their platters to be filled? They are not numerous. The colored Democrat is an exotic. He is not native to the soil. He can be produced, and when he arrives he is not hardy. Last year many colored men voted against Mr. Taft. But the majority of such voted for Mr. Roosevelt. Only a few comparatively, voted for Mr. Roosevelt, and indirectly in Mr. Wilson's election by voting for Mr. Roosevelt—who was the assistant democratic candidate—are expecting recognition along with those who supported the Baltimore ticket—we took to the polls. What can Mr. Wilson do for his colored friends? What is he disposed to do? What will his party permit him to do? He is limited in the matter of his presumably he will appoint no colored man to the office,quence in the south. Such appointments when made by Republican presidents have always been condemned by the southern Democratic leaders, who often from him more roundly than they have ever done from a Republican. Limited, then, to a few places in the diplomatic service, and a few in this town which have become associated with the colored race, how, without a doubt, the colored miracle, will it be possible for Mr. Wilson to hungry? And what will be the feeling of those who are sent away empty? No wonder that when a prominent colored man visited the White House last week, the subject he got no further than the secretary's room. Mr. Wilson must have time to think matters over. Poor White and Poor Black (From Syracuse Post-Standard.) The Maryland Court of Appeals holds by unanimous vote that the "Grandfather Clause" of the election law is in violation of the Federal Constitution. The "Grandfather Clause" is designed frankly to disfranchise Negroes. A literacy or property test is prescribed to all white Negroes can meet it. Then all whites are exempted from its operation by the provision that a man whose grandfather would vote shall be entitled to the vote. It would require a fine spun argument indeed to prove that this law is not in conflict with the 15th Amendment. The southern political leaders would show not simply a regard for law, but for a requirement upon by making their restrictions upon the franchise run to white and black allie. There can be no quarrel with any conditions that may be imposed to penalize the poor, the ignorant, or the criminal, but it is neither just nor wise that the poor and ignorant and criminal white should be exempt from a law which makes so transparent a presence at being general in its application. "Halli has a new President," says the Indianapolis Freeman. How long will she keep him before shooting or exiling him? A physician has been kind enough to declare that Enrico Caruso, the morally deprived "song bird" is "mussur," has been the only man which may or may not account for the unusual weakness of his flesh, which is horribly human. GUARD (New York City.) The National Guard serves the State of New York and is beaten by a police respondent with Negro officers raised in this city, the Kane hostage defending the military law having been signed by Governor Sulzer. The Governor said that Gust be approved of the bill on the principle that there should be no discrimination against citizens in matters of race, color or creed. It is a sound and admirable sentiment, but Mr. Sulzer added that the carrying out the wield of the Legislature, because at the last stop there was no obedience at all to the proposal to raise a Negro regiment in this city. What tangible opposition there ever has been came from some of the officers of the National Guard, who maintained that it was already large enough and said that no armory was available for a new regiment. They also feared conflicts of authority being raised by the new office of Guard, and social complications. The color line as an objection was never openly urged, however. In view of the patriotic and memorable services of Negro soldiers in every war in which Americans have engaged, from the struggle for independence to the battle with the British, considering that in the event of a great war the Negroes of the country would be called to the firing line and would respond as of old, opposition to the enlistment of Negroes in the National guard. The Negroes would stand on to stand on. The only plausible argument that could be advanced was that there were enough white men ready to fill the ranks of the white regiments. As the Negroes of the city were the soldiers and of others of the race promising business and the professions were zealous to serve in the Guard there remained only the opportunity to join it by organizing an entire regiment. The men were ready and the staff was prepared before the Kane bill was introduced in the Legislature. The representative Negro who said that admission to the National Guard in a regimental organization would improve the morale and physique of the troops by taking them of the street and giving them the many advantages of an army, including athletic games and a library, said the indisputable thing. The Negro militia regiment will be a new departure, an experiment, but the troops will be able to defend and liberal treatment for it, always realising that it would represent the addition to the armed forces of the nation of a well-trained command in an emergency. The success of the Negro regiment will depend on cobble upon quality and character of carriers selected, and the material available is apparently of good promise. Who Established, and Where Was the First School in the Forests? First School for the Freedman's Sun, the first school for the Freedman's Sun, was established in 1862 by the Rev. and Mrs. Thomas L. Poulson at Drummond-town, Va. This, however, was not the first school for the Freedman's Sun, shown by the Negro Year Book, Mary S. Peake, a colored woman, under the auspices of the American Missionary Association, established at Fortress Monroe, Va., September 17, 1881, the first school for the Negro Year Book, and thereby laid the foundation for Hampton Institute.

OVER in London McIntyre and Heath, the well-known black-face comedians, opened at the Hippodrome on June 30 for a four weeks' vaudeville engagement in a sketch entitled "The Georgia Minstrel." After their first performance the comedians were requested to change their offering, as the Britishers absolutely refused to laugh at what McIntyre and Heath said and did Their London debut was regarded as a frost by the press and public, and, although they worked hard to please, they failed to locate the funny bone of the English theatregoers. After playing one week they were closed by the Hippodrome management and paid for three weeks' work. In the current issue of Variety the failure of McIntyre and Heath abroad is discussed as follows: McIntyre and Heath, the famous and popular American blackface comediana, are now out of the program at Hip Hop Women. Enraged for four weeks, the team played but one, when the management settled their contract by pay them for three weeks. The English people did not take to the acts offered, "The Georgia Minstrels" and "Waiting at the Church." McIntyre and Heath received a bad start at the Hippodrome at the opening matinee June 30 with the first-named piece. Changing later to the other almost as well known stit in their repretoire they could not do much better. The American performers in London are broken hearted over the affair. It is thought the English did not relish the apparently slow going pieces after the rush of ragtime. Conroy and Le Maire, another blackface team, who preceded McIntyre and Heath by several weeks on the other side, did not do over well in London, although Charles Hart (late of Avery and Hart), a popular comedian working in a style very similar to Bert Williams, is the comedy hit of the revue, "Come Over Here," at the London Opera House. Mr. Hart is appearing in it with Benjamin Johnson (formerly Cole and Johnson), and has almost the entire fun-making of the piece allotted to him. McIntyre and Heath were booked for the Hippodrome, London, through Will Collins, a London agent unfamiliar with the American market. It is said the team received a salary of $1,100 weekly for the month's engagement at the Hip. James McIntyre is considered by the vast majority of people in America as the greatest living comedian in blackface; Tom Heath holds the same reputation over here as a "straight man." Colored Americans should not enthuse over McIntyre & Heath's failure at the Hippodrome in London, but it should afford them pleasure to learn that the English do not see any humor in the course sayings of some white comedians who appear in blackface. Members of the theatrical profession, both colored and white, speak well of McIntyre and Heath personally. But their methods to provoke laughter have always been hurtful to the Negro. About three years ago I had occasion to protest in The Act against their penchant for frequently using "nigger," "coon," "black wrench" and other terms of derision in a musical show at the time appearing on Broadway. We do not object to having our race burlesqued on the stage, but we are strenuously opposed to being ridiculed. Bert 'Williams' portrayal of the easy-going, good-natured colored man is a type which does not offend and does not ridicule. We are not so sensitive as the Irish or the Jews on the subject, although we have good cause for being more so. McIntyre and Heath have made thousands of dollars out of ridiculing the Negro on the stage. Both are wealthy. At heart they may be our friends, but unconsciously they have introduced stage types which have been very harmful. So when the information comes from across the ocean that the English have shown themselves incapable of appreciating the darkey types presented by McIntyre and Heath I cannot help but experience a feeling of joyousness. I am not elated over the Irigid manner in which McIntyre and Heath were received by King George's subjects, but I rejoice that their sayings and manerisms failed to hit the bull'seye. Had their types favorably impressed the respect of the Britisher for the colored American would be on the decrease. The fact that Charlie Hart is making good in England in blackface shows that the English theatregoer knows the difference between burlesquing a race and ridiculating a race. While it is true that McIntyre is looked upon by some as a funny comedian in blackface, no well-informed theatregoer will refute the assertion that Bert A. Williams is the greatest comedian under cork. THE MUSICIAN CHARLES H. GILPIN When the Negro Players opened at the Casino Theatre, Philadelphia, some weeks ago those who pay more than ordinary attention to character acting were impressed with the work of Charles Gilpin. Although he had but little to the dill it well and created the impression that he was an actor of some parts. Later at the Lafayette Theatre Mr. Gilpin appeared with the Negro Players and made a bit of a sketch he presented, appearing as an old man who had come to watch his son pilot a horse to victory. Last week Mr. Gilpin was on the bill at the Lafayette and repeated his former success. With Gilpin's capabilities as an actor in legitimate roles he has a good singing voice. His old man characters cause you to grow reminiscent and think of the acting of the late Ernest Hogan, who excelled all others in playing Gilpin. Among strong points is his strict attention to detail in up. There is no reason why Mr. Gilpin should not attract general attention as an actor of ability. THEATRICAL JOTTINGS.

She can't sing but she is a promising contortionist. LAFAYETTE THEATRE BURT MURPHY, in a single turn, was the strongest card at the Lafayette Theatre the first half of the week. As there is a big demand abroad just now for real blackface comedians. Burt Murphy ought to take a trip across the ocean and try, his hand at acting foolish for the English.

Although he works under cork he appears in wardrobe that would pass the sanitary test. Some comedians who do blackface think the dirtier their clothes the funnier they look, which is a big mistake.

BENEFIT AT BALTIMORE Ford's Opera House was filled with Baltimore's elite Tuesday evening, July 1, on the occasion of the Provident Hospital benefit, arranged and conducted by Ford T. Dabney. The program was made up of numbers by some of the "big time" attractions and was of a quality to meet the most exacting requirements. Society was out in force and the boxes were occupied by a galaxy of Baltimore's most beautiful women, whose gowns, flowers and jewels added but little to their own natural charms.

M. E. CHURCH AND SUNDAY SCHOOL 233 W. 25th Street, New York City Rev. B. W. ARNETT, A.M., D.D., P WILL GIVE THEIR Mr. Barber, white but full of con- cious prejudices, showed at the first meeting with the colored workers that he did not know New England because a New England business beyond a doubt a lack of contact with escaped, refined members of the race. We were all called together and he goke to us as if we were children who had disobeyed his order. He stated people were not true and that he had authority to discharge all if he wanted no one excepted. On one occasion one of the white male officers had lost an old coat out of her trunk. He gathered about him only the officers and insulted him by mocking the chap that stood among us was dishonest. Not one of the white officers was subjected to such humiliation. It is denied that discrimination exists at the home, and yet I can cite instances without diplomas and that man had never had any experience in institutional work. But a colored applicant for a job usually had to be a graduate of some school although they always held inferior positions. The colored workers that if they had a friend any a meal it would cost twenty-five cents. This order was made in spite of the fact that white officers repeatedly entertained friend gratis, many of whom came to Riverdale and spent their time with the colored workers when wondered why the white workers were permitted to enjoy such unusual privileges. Williamsa' Great Work in Nursery. "A few months after Mr. Harber be superintendent he came to me and said he wanted someone to assume full charge of the nursery. He asked me that in connection with my work, I should be responsible for the training of all children under ten years old, numbering 10. I found the nurseries in very bad condition. There were no combs and brushes and no child had any particular wash cloth or clothes to wear. The nurses had not been trained on Sunday services at the chapel, now very little about table manners, in many instances the nurses did not know the names of the children for whom they were caring. I realized now deplorable were existing conditions and further realized what amount of work would be required of me to ameliorate matters, and at raise of salary. My day's work, with my additional duties, began at 5:30 in the morning and often lasted until the late hours of night. Sometimes when I had very little time, I had to tell these facts Supp. Barber cannot deny, can he deny that after two months my child came to the dining room with face washed, hair combed and clothes properly worn. Every minute my time was taken up and Sundays were also occupied, only surprised at the alacacy with such the nursery.mothers responded and the enthusiasm shown toward him to give the children proper eating, even though it meant many hours. I asked Mr. Barber after three hours as head of the nursery if he might it fair to crowd so much on me because of my interest in children. He told me he realised duties were very exacting and often to raise my salary $10 on the Mr. Barber was greatly pleased with my work in the nursery and after one year and five months, when I had raised the standard of the nurseries, my work had decided to give my nursery work ever to another person and create new work for me. Then Miss Sheurman came upon the scene as matron. What credit is given colored people who assume responsibility and who make good what has been assigned them to do. "When the new orphan home was under quarantine with seventy-one cases of measles is not true that the same nursery mothers put their shirts on and date with their children, doing the work of trained nurses? What appreciation was shown the nursery mothers, although it was suggested to Mr. Barber that he express his appreciation for the work from reports, in that the colored people are not able to assume responsibility. I think it only fair that the public should know that there are colored people who are not only doing what they are hired to do, but a great deal more." "When Miss Sheurman came to the Colored Orphan Asylum we had been led to believe that she had been institutional work. We very soon concluded that her predecessors may not have had the institutional experience, but their attitudes toward children and the interior and interior and agreeable to Miss Sheurman." Chargee Miss Sheurman as Being In- efficient. "Miss Sheurman had not been at the home a few hours before she began to impress upon us her position of suction师 and as head nurse and one occasion was reminded by the attending physician that I should be consulted on all such matters. I did not show interest in the matter, she would go. I advised her that the State Board Inspector would soon visit the home and that it was time to clean house. We worked side by side at the closets and removing the rubble. In the meantime no official notification had been given me by Mr. Barber that I had been relieved of the nursery when I been a nursery mother so to go to Nursery would knock if she was in charge she would reply that she did not know, as Mr. Barber had not told anything to her. When I interceded to Mr. Barber and asked him to give me the nursery, the subject he declared he did not know Miss Sheurman was in the nurseries. And yet Miss Sheurman informed me afterwards that Mr. Barber had told har of his contemplated change in books before she came to the institution. Miss Sheurman had not been at the Colored Orphan Asylum two weeks before the workers concluded that she was not possessed of the proper qualifications to be matron, and suggested that she had better first observe rather than enter into active service, for if she got in wrong with the children and people it would take a long time to outlive her. She agreed with me, but said Mr. Bartlett wanted her to enter into active service. It was impossible for me to stand by and see the children I had learned to love, published by someone who so thoroughly misunderstood them, and the nursery had been taken from me and the children had beenbidden to visit me, which order had made promoted to fashion moths. Miss Sheurman knows almost nothing of colored people and has no other hands with a half dozen people before it before going to the home. Mr. Sheurman has the assertion in The Age that the institution is one point higher this year than it directly is credit due? Miss Sheurman has introduced nothing new up to the time the importer came. There had no one directly over the cottage. It was to me that this body of house mothers, to be told by Miss Sheurman as "a bunch of inferior woman" in a large measure deserve credit for the one point. "It has been reported that Mr. Barber asked me to stay. Such is not hard, he could not get a colored nurse I did not accept my June 1, but he could not accept my offer because the suggestion displeased Miss Sheurman. When Miss Sheurman commonly about my work, maintaining, growing the little sheers the managers had put me in I told her that if four years of hard work at the institution were not a position for another Negro woman, then I felt I had lost four years of service."
