NEGRO BISHOPS FOR THE SOUTH Important Question Discussed At The General Episcopal Convention OPPOSITION TO THE PLAN Some White Clergymen Not Enthusiastic Over Idea of Taking Classes Before Negro Bishop for Confirmation. WORK AMONG NEGROES Negro Franklin Bath in the North and South Alcoed at Conference—Episcopiations Differ on Question. At the General Episcopal Convention now in session in New York City the question of Negro bishops for Negro dioceses was taken up Tuesday morning, October 21, and the committee to which matter was referred made a majority and minority report. The n. n. report, presented by the Rev. Dr. C. B. Bryan of the diocese of southern Virginia, opposed the election of Negro bishops and the separation of the Negro communicants into independent dioceses. The minority report, favoring the division, was presented by the Rev. Dr. I. M. Pittinger of orth Carolina, memorials and petitions for racial division of dioceses from the Missionary Council of the Seventh Department, from the Colored Convocation of the Diocese of North Carolina, from the Conference of Canals Workers among the Colored People, and from the woman's auxiliary of the same conference. Opposition to the plan came from the dioceses of South Carolina, Georgia and Atlanta. Many white southwesterners are wholly or in part composed of Negro communicants do not relish the idea of taking before a Negro bishop their classes for confirmation. Favor a Racial Missionary District. In presenting the minority report, and speaking in favor of giving the Negroes their own bishops, Dr. Pittinger pointed out that fourteen bishops, constituting the seventh missionary department, favored a racial missionary district. Continuing his argument, he said: "It is urged that such a jurisdiction, extending within the limits of organized dioceses, is without precedent. While it must be admitted that such a jurisdiction is contrary to the common use of the church in the past, it is not more or less than that in the clusion of the whole race, solely on account of their race, from participation in the ordinary life and activities of the church and it is by no means so grave a violation of principles. In our judgment the Church can never successfully appeal to any large number of colored people in the South while we thus exclude them from any adequate participation in our church life." The majority report, in opposition to the division, held that the proposed establishments would violate the principle and custom of diocese duty, and that under the proposed legislation danger of further and more irreparable separation between the races would ensue. That conflicts of jurisdiction would arise which might destroy the unity of the church. The doctrine declared further that "With the utmost humility and friendship for our colored, brethren and the desire to advance the work of the church among them we still cannot believe that as a race they are prepared for an independent ecclesiastical jurisdiction." Wednesday afternoon at 2:30 o'clock was set for discussion of the report and each side was limited to thirty minutes, notwithstanding the demand of delegates for unlimited debate. Francis Lewis of Pennsylvania, chairman of the committee on despatch of business, decared that while the question of Negro districts and churches might go on forever the convention was in no mood to do likewise. Services at Cathedral of St. John the Divine. A service on behalf of the church's work among Negroes was held at the Cathedral of St. John the Divine Sunday evening. October 19, under the suspices of the American Church Institute for Negroes, with the Rt. Rev. David H. Greer presiding.

NEGRO POSTAL CLERKS IN NATIONAL ALLIANCE Special to The New York Times CHATTANOOGA, Tenn., Oct. 21.—Twenty-eight delegates, representing the Nego postal clerks from the States of Alabama, Arkansas, Georgia, Kansas, Louisiana, Mississippi, Missouri, Indiana, Tennessee and Texas, met here October 2 to 4, and organized the National Alliance of Postal Employees.

WHITE HUSBAND AND COLORED WIFE WIN SUIT special to THE NEW YORK ACA- WASHINGTON, D. C. Oct. 22—William N. Webster white, and his colored wife was formerly Miss Nellie Ralls are back in Washington after having a trying experience with the Virginia authorities, who arrested and tried them for violating the miscegenation law of the State. Mrs. Webster is a mulatto. Several days ago at Harrisburg, Va. the couple were defendants in the Circu- t Court. After the testimony had been taken the attorney for the State entered a noelle prosequi, much to the surprise of those present. In doing so no reason was given for dismissing the indictments. It is said that the prosecution found it greatly puzzled to prove that Mrs. Web- ster had as much as one-sixteenth Negro blood in her veins. This is one of the many instances of how the whites are greatly puzzled over the Negro question in the South, one which is not due to the colored man's making. TROTTER TRIES HARD TO SEE PRESIDENT BUT FAILS Special to The New York Am WASHINGTON, D. C. Oct. 22--William Monroe Trouster of Boston came to Washington last week to get a personal interview with President Wilson. After remaining here several days, Mr. Trouster left for the "Club" City without getting even a glimpse of the chief executive. The bossman was informed Secretary Tumulty that he would not be able to see the President for several weeks. Trotter worked industriously for Wilson's election, and was equally as active in vilifying the "Black Cabinet" under Presidents Roosevelt and Taft. However, the members of the "Black Cabinet" were always on the alert and at all times were in a position to see the President. They also made it possible for other Negroes on important missions to see the nation's head. But this Administration is run by Democrat. APPLICATIONS AVAIL ABLE FOR PATROLMAN The Municipal Civil Service Commission, located at 299 Broadway, eleventh floor, is now engaged in giving out applications for patrolmen. All desiplos of securing them are advised to apply to the Municipal Civil Service Commission. RACIAL STRIFE CAUSED BY POLITICIANS, SAYS PRIEST Father Joseph Bunsch of Baltimore, Writes a Letter to The Age CATHOLICS AND SEGREGATION It Is Denied That Catholics Are Directly Concerned in Mosque Legislation Introduced in Religion deduct at Baltimore. In a letter to THE Age in which a denial is made that the Catholics are playing a prominent part in urging segregation in Baltimore, the Rev. Joseph Butsch of St. Joseph's Seminary, Baltimore, declares that as a rule the white and colored citizens live in peace and harmony when politicians are not stirring up contention. Father Butsch's letter to THE Age follows: To the Editor of The Age: In your issue of October 9 you had an editorial on "The Maryland Acony." in which article you seem to lay stress on the Catholics of Maryland and speak of Catholic Baltimore. You insinuate that Catholics are responsible for race prejudice and race riots that recently occurred where colored people were by whites. You also speak of legislation which denies to Negro citizens their rights. I fear that the writer of the article does not have an accurate knowledge of the facts and conditions, not as far as Catholics are concerned. Although Catholics were the first colonists of Maryland, the proportion of Catholics in Baltimore and the State of Maryland is at present smaller than that in much of the rest of the Union, much less than in New York and the New England States. Baltimore has probably a Catholic population of 75,000 out of a total of 96,000 in Maryland, and embraces the State of Maryland and the District of Columbia, has, according to the National Census, probably ten per cent are colored. It can be said that tour white Catholics are, as a rule, well disposed to the colored citizen and desire their welfare and progress. It is therefore that the part of the Negro race which it was a question of adverse legislation. The measures proposed are not considered religious questions by many live in peace and harmony when politicians are not stirring up contention. It is not my purpose to discuss or debate the segregation law, but I am not going to insist on the situation that law was intended to prevent the race animosities and disorders that have occurred here. The recent disorders occurred before the Reconstruction, according to the national census reports, the colored population is decreasing on the farms in the counties of Maryland and increasing in the city of Baltimore. I suppose labor conditions were not unimaginable property that have been accustomed to and desire neighbors of their own condition and color. These sentiments exist sometimes not only in regard to the blacks and Jews and other white classes of people. In Baltimore also it may be observed that on some streets that late emigrants colored people live peacefully in the same block and on the same street. Whatever may be the occasional amuletier or onerous between races in certain that the church as a whole has no part in them. The mission of that great and ancient Church is to teach the Gospel of Jesus Christ to all races. The Church teaches that members of all races and nations are children of a common heavenly Father, with immanence that they love each other divine charity and forebearance. It is hardly fair to attribute the mistakes and errors of individuals to the action of the universal. (Signed) JOSEPH BUTSCH. St. Joseph's Seminary, Baltimore, Md.

METZ THURSDAY, OCTOBER 28, 1913. WHEATON LAUFS FOSTER AS FAIR UPRIGHT JUDGE At a meeting held last week at the Waldorf-Astoria in the interest of fur- rstanding the candidacy of the Hon. Warren W. Worrell who is to for re-election as judge of the Court of General Sessions, Frank W. Worrell made the following speech before the Non-Partisan Committee: Mr. Chairman and Gentlemen: I assume you that I appreciate the desciption as a corrector on this platform. To repeat, Mr. Chairman, I hereby appreciate the honor which is in my hands to work by this committee to promote the election of my esteemed friend, the Hon. Warren W. Worrell. I 1903, when my membership was limited to that of New York, Judge Foster was one of the very few judges before whom I had the opportunity to appear. From that year until now I have been a corrector, and I appreciate the fact that I have to speak from the viewpoint of the loyalty of our communities. JUDGE WARREN W. FOSTER Foster's character perhaps from a different viewpoint than other members of our community. I have had the opportunity to study his traits of responsibility, to understand the value of justice, and in fact to study the man whom I regard as the persecution of justice. Never a defendant has been before him for trial and the judge should be thrown around any citizen all the protection that any citizen merits upon the trial throws upon him by Judge Foster; the high and the low, the black and the poor, the rich and the poor, the treated with a sense of strict justice, and it is a pleasure beyond the power of expression or words for me to aid this effort with whatever assistance I can lend to secure this protection. Normally the twenty thousand colored voters of the Borough of Manhattan or a greater fraction thereof, vote for Judge Foster, and I can lend to the character of Judge Foster, his sense of fairness, seemed to have been so generally advertised among the people whom I represent that they regard him as a judge. This is for me here to-night to dedicate my services in behalf of Judge Foster and in the assistance of this committee to promote the work among the citizens, and the honor to represent them to-night. We have already inaugurated a special movement in his behalf, startling of my friend, Counselor Outlaw, who sony sunsher. Equity Congress, a civic organization which meets weekly at the University of Chicago, which I have the honor to be the president, adopted a resolution, suspending, as it were, the rule of the court, which I have the honor to be the literal matters, suspended the rule and passed a resolution indorning Judge Warren W. Foster, because of his great injustice. So many instances of his great soul have been made manifest that men of all parties united in singing the song, Foster as a fair-minded judge, who puts justice above everything else. "If the adoption of this resolution identifies anything, this Equity Committee over 1,500 men who are currently serving for the uplift of our people in this community, men who are the victims of the violence, the community, who do deny crime, who displease violation of the law, who are trying to work for the general uplift of their race, unanimously adopted that with consecrate efforts on the fourth of November we will be enabled, with your assistance, to tenure a charter as the seventy-five percent of the colored vote in this borough." JERSEY DEMOCRATS IN ROW ON STREET CAR Jewish City: N. J. Ora 22-2Josh J. Pell, one of the prominent Negro Democrats of this city, and Counselor A. B. Gillow 22-2Washington street, Newark were before Police Judge Warren Wednesday morning, October 15, because of a row with John Larkins, a conductor of the morning performance which occurred on Larkins' car at Jordan avenue the evening of October 8. Bell charged Larkins with assault and Larkins entered a counter charge against Bell and Court of disorderly conduct. SCHOOL FACILITIES AT ATLANTA ARE VERY BAD Barbarous Conditions Said To Exist in Colored Schools of That City Special to THE NEW YORK AREA ATLANTA, GA, Oct 21.—The Atlanta Constitution for October 10 contained a broadside review of conditions as they exist in Atlanta schools, especially with reference to Negro schools. This broadside was prepared by Miss Iona Dooley, society editor of the Constitution, and Assistant E. T. Ware of Atlanta University. Miss Dooley has the thanks of our large Negro citizenship for her sympathetic, contemptuous article calling attention to the harrowing conditions which the Atlanta School Board has permitted to exist in our Negro public schools. Miss Dooley's article follows: "As many as 1,000 Negro children of school age are wandering around the streets of Atlanta to-day because there in no room in the public schools for them. "As many as 6,000, Negro children have only three hours a day schooling because of the double or triple午休 who can get seats to school in the morning and the other half in the afternoon. The same teacher who teaches sixty children ally more, and teaches until 4 in the afternoon. How can she do it? In the Pittsburgh School for Negroes in other city—the school composed of three old shack buildings—a fire broke out in the annex. There was the usual drill, the fireman came and put out the fire and a school knew about it. How can a woman direct the activities of a school while the interior of the building in which she is at one moment is so far removed from the one she can't know when it catches on fire? Teach in Basement. The bad effects of this system of double grading are complex. For instance, the children who go to school in the afternoons, the children who go to school in the afternoons the next month, this doing away with the possibility of their working when not in school, and the children who are going to school in the mornings can get work for the afternoons; but after one month at it he or she must give up the job to go to school in the morning and hunt a job for one month in the morning or late on the street. Hundreds Beaming Streets In South Africa there are fully 300 children of school age who are on the streets because they have no school to go to. "There are only some of the facts pertaining to outrageous conditions existing in the Negro schools in Atlanta, Georgia, that they can prevent or I have not embellished these facts; I have not related incidents that suggest the existence of immorality and deprivacy as the result of immorality and crowded conditions, nor have I told of the nature of the conditions when contemptuous discernment prevail. They are reproduced thus far only to prove that justice and humanity and common decency require that with the improvement of conditions in the white schools, there must be improvement in the conditions of the Negro schools. The representative Negro women of the city, many of them have organized to promote the interests of the school, and to advocate for the rights of desi- dent students. The Constitution office yesterday and brought reports of condi- tions of the Negro schools which they have already impaired. They have citizens who have hung out and who are anxious to help in the crises for the public school settlement. Their names and addresses are: L. B. Hope, Mor- gan College, Greenwood, 215th Street, C. C. Chier, 81th Jackson street. "It should be remembered that with this thousand or more Negro children host part of the school the want of MINISTERS WRITE LETTER FOR ROYALL The ministers of the city have united in support of John M. Royall for Alderman from the 21st Aldermanic District, and, with other prominent citizens, have sent out a strong letter to the voters of that district advocating Royall's cause. The following is the letter: For a long time the colored people of New York City have desired representation on the board of Aldermen and are fortunate to secure such representation through the candidacy of Mr. John M. Royall, who had the courage to announce himself as a candidate. Two Aldermanic District, and who has received the endorsement and positions of more than 1,100 voters in the Aldermanic District, and who we think a stronger man could not have been selected. Mr. Royall has the ability, both from a municipal business standpoint to properly represent the interests of this district in the Aldermanic board, and we cheerfully recommend and urge the united vote of the Aldermanic representation on the fourth day of November. CAMPAIGN MEETINGS FOR JOHN M. ROYALL Monday night a series of meetings were begun in the interest of the candidacy of John M. Royall, who is running for Alderman from the 21st aldermanic district. That night a meeting was held at Gilbert Baptist Church, 39 East 132d street, the Rev. L. B. Twisby, pastor, at the speeches were made by Mr. Royall and a number of his supporters. Tuesday night's meeting was at the Baptist Temple, 159 West 132d street, the Rev. M. B. Hucles, pastor, and Wednesday night the meeting was held at the Congregational Church, the Rev. V. S. Hancock.

COTTON SEED OIL COTTON SEED OIL MILL NOW OPEN Special to THE NEW YORK ACE MOUND BAYO, Miss., Oct. 21.—The Mound Bayon Cotton Seed Oil Mill began manufacturing on October 9. This is the largest commercial enterprise be- come known for by Negroes. It has a capital and a paid-in fund of more than $100,000, in- cluding operating fund. The managing director of this enterprise is Charles Banks, first vice-president of the National Negro Business League, and cashier of the Bank of Mound Bayon. This enterprise owes its existence to the State Negro Business League of Mississippi, which under Mr. Banks' direction established the Negro dentroto establish a business enterprise which should enlist the financial support of the Negro people of the State of Mississippi. The oil mill was dedicated a year ago by Dr. Booker T. Washington, who delivered the principal address, and by C. H. J. Mooney, editor of the Memphis Commercial Appal, who also spoke. MASS. CONGRESSMAN ASKS SEGREGATION INQUIRY Secretary to The New York ACE. WASHINGTON, D. C., Oct. 21- Representative John J. Rogers, Republican of Massachusetts, has introduced a resolution requesting information from the Secretary of the Treasury and the Postmaster General as to whether Negroes and white employees have been segregated in Government offices, and also as to any dismissals of Negro employees since January 1950. Rogers said he had been unable to get any information on the subject by personal effort. PIVE POSTAL CLERKS DISMISSED AT ST. LOUIS St. Louis, Mo. Oct 21—The attention of the officials at Washington is to be directed to the dismissal of five colored postal clerks who were summarily let out October 10.

SEGREGATION IN BALTIMORE Meeting Hold to Protest Against the Creation of Two Unequal Chinese Contraction to United States Constitution. Special to THE NEW YORK AME. BALTIMORE, Aid, Oct. 22—Oswald Garrison Villard, editor of the New York Evening Post, was principal speaker at the anti-segregation meeting held at Bethel A. M. E. Church Monday evening, under the auspices of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. During his address Mr. Villard denounced President Wilson's "Jim Crow" policy at Washington and also criticized Secretary of the Treasury McAdoo for drawing the color line in the Treasury Department. Mr. Villard stated that he had known President Wilson for the past two decades, that he had supported him for President, but that the chief executive's democracy had been found to be limited far behind the times in his steadfast exposition to woman suffrage," said the speaker, "and he fails utterly to see that to discriminate in his democracy against anyone is to bring his whole carefully-reared edifice to the ground. The principles upon which our democracy rests must apply to everybody without discrimination as exactly as a hand is raised. In paying his respects to Secretary McAdoo Mr. Villard declared the Secretary of the Treasury had put into the hands of the Republicans an issue by which it could again control nationally. He characterized McAdoo as "a passing phenomenon in our political life," for the part he is playing in segregating colored clerks in the capital city of the United States. "After he has finished office, the mischief of segregation will on unceasingly, and the division of the Register of the Treasury will be speedily known as the 'nigger' division," Mr. Villard said. Segregation at Baltimore Un-American Mr. Villard further declared: "I am here to protest against the un-American policy of segregation now attempted for the third time by ordinance in this city. We oppose this policy for many reasons. It is contrary to the best interests of the community as it is opposed to the wishes and desires of the colored population which it seeks to degrade; it is an attempt to turn back the hands of the nation not by the use of force and centric to establish on American soil the abominable Russian ghetto from which hundreds of thousands are now fleeing. It is unworkable, economically impossible, and indefensible, and bound, if attempted, to increase and not decrease race hatred and friction. "It is, we believe, contrary to the Constitution of the United States, and beyond all doubt, to the spirit of the Declaration of Independence. Finally, it is another step in the persistent effort to create two unequal classes within this republic—the advantaged and disadvantaged, the history established but fifty years ago by the blood of hundreds of thousands that this nation cannot exist half slave and half free." After stating that everywhere in Europe, save Russia, ghettoes had been abolished, Mr. Villard said: "At bottom here in Baltimore, the chief motive behind segregation is the desire to prevent the depreciation of real estate by sales to colored people; but the old argument that it is really necessary to preserve the purity of the Anglo-Saxon is also again trauted out. This purge of the Anglo-Saxon race is greater than the charity that is made to cover a multitude of sins: rape, murder, theft and the prostitution of the black women by whites. Injustice and oppression stalk behind it and oblige in the effectiveness of its bogie. The "Race Purity" Myth. "If the Russian 'Black Hundreds' are without his excuse for wrong-doings they have never, it must be said in fairness, sunk so low as to make the question of rents or of land an excuse for degrading those whom they would oppress. What could be more selfish and more ungrateful than to make the progress of a race upward depend upon the price of land, and not on the unfortunate act to increase the price of land, would there be any talk of segregation? No, there would be as great a demand for colored tenants as there is for colored labor in the South to make money for their white rulers, and nothing would be heard of the necessity of separation ordinances to keep the peace. Our old friend Rage Purity would be permitted to remain in the background, and would be important Taking up the question of segregation in the departments at Washington, Mr. Villard said that the adoption of his policy was merely an expression of the innate prejudice of the Southern portion of the administration, the President and certain members of his Cabinet. Thal at the outset of his career President Mr. Wilson has, from politician's point of view, most wrongly and needlessly antagonized one-ninth of the population of this country and its white sympathizers. "And he may go down in history as the man who set an motion terrible forces for evil without adequate conception or provision of the dangers he was inviting," said the speaker. TUSKEGEE'S ENDOWMENT IS NEARLY TWO MILLION TUSKEGEE INSTITUTE, Ala., Oct. 21.—The last report of Principal Booker T. Washington to the trustees of the Tuskegee Normal and Industrial Institute for the fiscal year ending May 31, 1913, shows that the institution's endowment fund is almost $2,000,000, the correct figures being $1,901,408.32. During, the year as a whole $308,128.85 was spent for current expenses, new buildings and equipments. As the income for these purposes amounts to $369,126.61, a deficit of $18,906.24 was left. Under the heading of "Gifts from Colored People," the report reads: An indicating the growing disposition of colored people to help themselves. I refer to the legacy of $10,000 recently received from the estate of the late Ann Marla Fisher, of Brooklyn, N. Y. I would also mention that $2,544 has been contributed by colored persons during the past year toward the work of the school. Several of these contributions were for $100 each, and many of them for $50, $25, $10, $5—the majority of them being $1 each. Included in the list of those contributing are 1,200 persons from thirty-seven states, the District of Columbia and the Philippine Islands. The class of 1833 celebrated its twentieth anniversary at the close of the school term, and placed in the hands of the principal $745 in cash and pledges for $265, making the total contribution toward their Alma Mater $1,000. With reference to the enrollment at Tuskegee, the report conveys the information that during the past year the institution had on its grounds 1,618 young men and women from thirty-three States and eighteen foreign countries. Principal Washington, in his report, informs the trustees that the improved water system for which they appropriated $45,293.31 has been completed and is giving the school and community good service. The report refers to the need of trained specialists to push forward the whole work of education in the South at a rapid rate and the need of a laundry building, which should be separate from other buildings, to be erected and equipped for approximately $12,755.90. IERSEY CENTRAL MEN Attended by guests from as far as the Philippine Islands, with Philadelphia Boston, Washington, New York, Ashbury Park, Newark, the Oranges, Bayonne and other nearby points well represented, the second annual vaudeville and reception of the Jersey Central Porters and Waiters' Beneficial Association was held at Columbia Hall, Jersey City, Thursday evening, October 16.

Lightfoot Comedy Company, Miss Emma Stevens and others, and a comedy was rendered, called "Dawn and Darkness." The program called forth many expressions of approval, but the hit of the evening was made by "Deacon" Golden, who announced at its end that the "services are not concluded." Music was furnished by Prof. J. C. Redfield's union orchestra, and all the latest dances were played. William H. Farrell, of Bayonne, the Negro composer, who wrote "Not To-night" and a number of other hits, was represented on the program and his music made a hit. The grand march was led by Percy C.

SALOON MEN MUST PAY FOR RACE PREJUDICE Journal to The New York Times PENSACOLA, Fla., Oct. 21. — Saloon keepers of Pensacola are stirred up over a ruling of the State Comptroller that every saloon conducts a double bar, one for white and one for Negro patrons, is subject to two licenses. These bars are known as "Jim Crow" saloons in Pensacola, and with few exceptions they are operated by every saloon of the city. The saloon men of Pensacola are in the position of being compelled by the city laws to have separate compartments for white and Negro patrons, while, if they comply with the city laws they will be subject to a double license from the State. The tax collector of Pensacola has issued his licenses covering such saloons under one license, but with the ruling of the State Comptroller they will be compelled to call on the saloon men for another thousand dollars. DIDN'T WANT NEGRO CARRIERS; LOST P. O. Sub-station No. 126 of the Brooklyn postoffice, Nostrand and Gates avenues has been discontinued by the Postmaster General because Henry P. Hill, a Southerner and Democovat, who had charge of it, objected to the assignment of two Negro carriers, Andrew J. Van Bluren and Frank Gordon. The station was located in a pharmacy owned by Hill who employed two girls, Miss Minnie Graf and Miss Delphine Kantrow, as clerks. To get rid of the Negro carriers Hill complained that they had insulted the two clerks and the Department sent Postoffice Inspector Crowell of Brooklyn to investigate. When Crowell made his report to Assistant Postmaster William Woods, who assigned him to the case, the branch was ordered discontinued. Hill had been mentioned for postmaster of Brooklyn in case Postmaster Voorhies, a Republican, was removed. The Rev. Dr. Archibald F. Campbell, pastor of the Nostrand Avenue M. E. Church, headed a petition to have the sub-station reinstalled under Hill. Postmaster Voorhies declined to discuss the matter, but Assistant Postmaster Woods said: "If a man, he be white or colored, wears the uniform of a letter carrier he is a gentleman and we will support him. That is all I have to say, aside from the fact that Hill will not get back the postoffice and that I have not yet decided where the new sub-station will be located." NEGRO OFFICIAL FAILS FOR NEW YORK CITY Special to COLUMBUS, O., Oct. 21. The cases against Leroy H. Godman, special counsel in the office of the Attorney General, and John H. Bowles, general agent for the General Accident Insurance Co. of Massachusetts, were dismissed without trial by Judge Black Saturday, October 11. It develops that a political plot was behind the affair, Mr. Godman being the first Negro attorney to hold a position in the Attorney General's office, and though he has always been a Republican he was appointed to office on merit by Gen. Hogan, who is a Democrat. Some time ago Godman and Bowles were called to the residence of Mrs. Margaret Royal, a dressmaker, on business. Two white women, customers of Mrs. Royal, were at the house at the same time seeing about some sewing. Enemies of the men called a police officer and the whole party were arrested on technical charges. The case against Mrs. Royal was the only one tried in court and a jury of twelve men acquitted her very promptly. The other cases were not tried, but dragged along until dismissed by Judge Black on October 11. Pending the outcome of the case Mr. Godman did not fill his position in the Attorney General's office, but he returned to his desk Monday, October 13, and was given a warm welcome by Attorney General Hogan and his associates. Negro Business League to Most. PETTERSBURG, Va., Oct. 21.—The first annual meeting of the Negro Organization Society will be held in Richmond Nov. 6 and 7, and the State Negro Business League will hold its annual session in Richmond at the same time. The two meetings will attract a large gathering of the leaders of the race. The Negro Organization Society aims to confederate all existing organizations in the State with the view of advancing the most fundamental needs of the race along the lines of health, education morals and national progress. The first year's work along these lines was very encouraging. The organization co-operated with the State Health Department in reaching the masses of the colored people in out-of-the-way places and aided in raising money for the building of graded school-houses On the night of Nov. 7 the two conferences will be addressed by Governor Mann and Booker T. Washington. NEGRO BISHOPS FOR THE SOUTH body and Bishop Thomas F. Gallor. Bishop Greer declared that the different schools connected with the Church Institute have a larger number of colored pupils, taken altogether, than either Tuskegee or Hampton. The institute is not, he said, the rival or competitor of these schools but their co-worker. Bishop Nelson of Georgia said he had given twenty-five years to study of the Negro question, with five years additional study on both sides, starting from a kindly feeling which he has never lost. Touching upon the question of the ballot for the Negro, the Bishop declared an immeasurable wrong had been done when the ballot was given to a people untrained for chancinship. That when freedom and franchise were given him he became the word of the nation as she no longer either a chattel or an acceptable relation of any kind in the land where he lived. THE NEW YORK, AUSTRIA, THURSDAY, OCTOBER 22, 1848. with the Negro problem in the North, calling it a city problem, saying that the white men should use their influence to obtain for the Negro that industrial freedom which he does not now enjoy. George Foster Peabody, a trustee of the institute, made a strong and vigorous plea for funds with which to carry on the work. He disagreed with Bishop Nelson that the Negro question was a problem, but declared it was a condition. The institute receives now $100,000 a year, but it should receive $500,000. Bishop Gailor of Tennessee declared that it must be said for the Negro that his progress has justified all that has been done for him. Forty years ago, he said, only one out of four could read and write; today the percentage is three out of four.

C The Man Farthest Down Author of "Up from Slavery," "My Larger Education, Etc. 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 been 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.

DRUMCENNESS IN THE CHURCH- What constitutes drunkenness? Many good people who drink water only as a beverage, but who possess an envious disposition and a viperous tongue, accuse every man they dislike or do not understand as being a drunkard whom they only know by hearsay as taking a drink occasionally; then, again, habitual whiskypoterians who never associate with a liquorless breath, accuse every person as being a drunkard whom they would want to force into their class, because he stands apart from them and is above them and disdains to make himself common as they do. To flippantly charge a man with being a drunkard is a very common way many Negroes have of seeking to blast the reputation of an enemy or of a friend who, they think, stands between them and something they desire. No man is a drunkard who takes an occasional drink and who is capable all of the time and does his work and does it well. It might be better for him that he did not drink at all, but that is his business, of which he is a better judge than others. If the question were left entirely to us to decide, we should vote to wipe out every saloon in the country and prohibit entirely the manufacture of all liquors, even for medicinal and art purposes, including beers and ales. It would be best for everybody, and for the nation and state which legalize and tax the traffic, if this could be done, because the liquor traffic is the greatest curse mankind has to deal with to-day in this country and Europe, and we think that, finally, in self-defense, mankind will have to do it. Our ancient and venerable contemporary, the Christian Recorder, the official newspaper of the great African Methodist Episcopal Church, in discussing an article by Dr. J. C. Caldwell,—in which the latter charges, among other things, that are impeding the church to-day, "greed," "utter disregard for the law" of the church, "boastfulness" and "indifference to boys and girls, growing men and women"—says: But we do not believe the right and the A. M. E. P. Church are Good, Lawless, Beautiful and Neglected. Only a few compassionous leaders, the vain themselves, have given the bad impression. We might add another sin—that of DRUNKENNESS—to what Dr. Caldwell has written. There is too much whisky in the church—too much of it high up in the church. "Tell it not in Goth! Publish it not in the streets of Aakelon!" But, horrors of horrors, immediately following this editorial lashing we find the following, signed by the editor of the Christian Recorder: If the Recorder did not have but one editor this painful 'duty would not be necessary, Editor (1). Lowe, in his editorial section of the Recorder, set up contrary to law, and in defiance of his spoken and written prouls, says that money for subscriptions from the Puget Sound Conference was sent to Editor Wright, and not reported to him, Editor (2) Manager Lowe. It is strange that Manager Lowe, who sent Editor Wright nearly every day, has never mentioned to the Editor Wright, but sooth the unlawful use of the Recorder to make a statement, which he clamintently puts in the paper without letting the editor see either manuscript or proof. I desire to say, however, that it is a malicious falsehood; that I did report in full to Lowe more than a month ago, and have written documents to prove it. I can only account for Lowe's action on the theory that he was in one of his drummers' debacles, such as has digressed the Bush Concern since he has been manager; for it is common talk that he has been plumped up off the street by the policeman and lodged in A child on the hill, full of joy and excitement, shakes their hands whenever she sees, their power of their hands, when for the moment they have a little brief authority." And all human authority is brief, transient. The months of the great of to-day seldom falls upon the shoulders of those of to-morrow in their family and name, but passes on to some other family and name. Successed men in all walks have the same problem to deal with that troubled the patriarch Abram when he complained: "What wilt thou give me, seeing I go childless, and the steward of my house is this Eliezer of Damascus? Behold, to me thou hast given no seed; and, lo, lo, one born in my house is mine heir." The child is always father to the man, but the man is not always son to the father. So the father often finds that among all his children there is none like him, that they are all strangers, and he knows from this that his fame and fortune may be wasted when he can no longer care for them. This is shown to be true in the lives of great men of whom record has been kept. In Rome we have the two Scipion, the three Gracchi and the two Catos; in Great Britain we have the two Pitts and in the United States the two Adams of Massachusetts, and then the name dies out. Whole generations are exhausted to produce one Cromwell, one Napoleon Bonaparte, one George Washington, one Andrew Jackson, one Abraham Lincoln, and they die childless or have children in whom is only the death of life. Strangely enough, nations undergo great and radical changes as they come to type in one great character as the exhaustion of one or more generations. Mark the changes in the character of the American nation from George Washington to Andrew Jackson, the first and seventh Presidents, a period of thirty-five years, to Abraham Lincoln, the sixteenth president, a period of thirty-six years. The changes in the national character and manners from Lincoln to Taft, the twenty-seventh President, covering a period of forty-eight years, were greater and more marked than in the periods between Washington and Jackson and the latter and Lincoln. Singularly enough, the thirty-five years between Washington and Jackson were disturbed by the question of the further importation of slaves and the settlement of the relative status of the slave master and the slave, while the thirty-six years between Jackson and Lincoln were disturbed by the question of the extension of slavery into free territory and the right of slave-holders to rule the nation, resulting finally in the abolition of slavery. The forty-eight years from 1865 to 1913 have been disturbed by the question of fixing the status of the free Negro citizens judicially by the several States and by the Federal Government, in accordance with the letter and spirit of the war amendments to the Federal Constitution. The results so far have been highly unsatisfactory. The Negro has steadily lost prestige as citizens in their political and civil rights, while they have steadily gained prestige as men and women in their Christian virtues and economic values. As home and church builders and maintainers and as wage-carners and business pioneers they have held their own. The Norfolk Journal and Guide, with a pathos in which hope is the dominant note, states the situation as follows: In these days of persecution, such as "Jim Crow" laws, segregation laws, mobs, monsters and the like, let the Negro perceive and co-operate and continue to raise his standard. Let him educate his children and buy land, and take more pride in his race. Cooperation should be the watchword of Negroes everywhere. Wherever there is a race enterprise, it should be encouraged and supported, and where it is fanky suggestions should be made for its improvement. The tide does not run one way forever, nor does the rain always fall, and some day, if the Negro properly perseveres, persecution will have to cease. With fifty years of freedom the Negro has countless blessings. He has had patience and made perceptions and discriminations of every northeast cloud to his higher advertisement. Sometimes the way seems dark and dreary but every cloud has its silver lining, and as long as there is life there is hope, and the Negro race shall continue to live and increase. Out of four million of shaved frost, a race of ten million has grown, and every census shows an increase. As in the past, the Negro has been a dominant force, out of rough and substantial material, and that foundation will stand through the coming darkness there is still a bright future. There should be more vocational training. Learn how to do move things and to do them better. Christianity is essential. The Negro must continue to remember his God and he will be led from the Wilderness of Persecution. No thoughtful Negro can read the foregoing article without taking fresh heart of hope. There is the ring of cheer and courage in it that is glorious even in the darkness of persecution, when the wages have not as yet been apportioned to the wrong-doers. It should enthuse the race as do the words of Lord Tennyson all gropers through the wilderness of persecution seeking after the perfect law of liberty, when he sings in "In Memoriam": That men may rise on stepping stones of their dead selves to higher things. The slave parents of the race who hoped and prayed for "higher things," but died before Gen. Grant marched into Richmond, would greatly rejoice if they could see to-day "the far-off interest of tears" which their children enjoy in their own homes, churches, free labor employments, and in the beginnings of a business development greater in future possibilities than in present results. It is for us in the present by our labors "to forecast the years," so that our children and their children may "find in loss a gain to match." If we do not do this, if we do not by our labors in the present continue to build for the future, we shall be poor indeed in all that makes for riches—the riches that do not take wings and fly away; and these riches consist more in good names built upon solid Christian foundations than in lands, tenements and hereditaments. These latter are not to be undervalued, far from it; but, as the Psalmist says, a good name is more to be preferred than riches. It is rather, then, the part of wisdom to succeed moderately by honesty in every transaction and strict economy than very greatly by dishonesty and a vulgar display of ill-gotten gains. The days of persecution are hard upon the race, and they promise to be harder, but his courage to win should grow with the persecution, following the star of his destiny," with increased faith in the God of his fathers. The wages of persecution is death, and those who impose them—whether they be individual, the state or the nation—will reain them as they reach them. I hold it truth, with him who sings The far-off interest of tours? The slave parents of the race who but died before Gen. Grant marched that they could see to-day "the far-off interlude in their own homes, churches, free labors a business development greater in fur. It is for us in the present by our late children and their children may "find do this, if we do not by our labors of future, we shall be poor indeed in all not take wings and fly away; and these upon solid Christian foundations' than These latter are not to be undervalued a good name is more to be preferred the wisdom to succeed moderately by honest than very greatly by dishonesty and a. The days of persecution are hard harder, but his courage to win should a star of his destiny," with increased faith of persecution is death, and those who viduals, the state or the nation—will re- the police station on account of his drunkenness. When in this state he is liable to write and say anything. A lier and a drunkenard are in abstinence. The further diagrame is that the Bishop's church would allow such a condition to be complied with. "R. R. Wright, Jr., B.D., Ph.D., was elected editor and "Rev. J. I. Lowe, D.D." was elected business manager of the Christian Recorder at the General Conference last year. The two have not pulled together since they were harnessed, it appearing that the manager has constantly got on the editor's nerves. We think it high time, for the good name of the church, that the Bench of Bishops should take a decided hand in the scandal and put an end to the strife between the editor and business manager of the Christian Recorder. Withal, a great many busy bodies who go about the country accusing other men of being drunkards, in the effort to square their guilty consciences with their dirty works, should stop long enough at the least to smell their own saturated breaths. MR. JOHNSON OF PARIS Commenting on the cable announcement that "France has acquired as a citizen Jack Johnson, who has quit the United States forever," the New York Sun, with the fine storm the thief used toward the owner he feels strong enough to bullyrag, says: "What has France done to us to deserve this?" It has done much. It has taken back from us the right of asylum for the oppressed, because of race, color and creed, and our claim to the brotherhood of man which Thomas Jefferson and Thomas Paine learned of them in the fierce tires of the French Revolution and incorporated in our Declaration of Independence and our Federal Constitution. France, the greatest republic in the Old World, with a uniform language and no rage problems, has kept alive the true principles of democracy, persecuting no man on account of race, color or creed, and leaving Truth free to fight falsehood in high and low places, and denying to none of its qualified citizens the right to vote and be voted for to a voice in the management of the affairs of his country; while the United States, which learned these things of France, the greatest republic in the New World, with a mixed population of all the races on the globe, speaking all the languages, draws a race, color and creed line on them all—gag free speech on the one hand and strangles truth on the other, in reporting and commenting on the news of the day, making a byword and a hissing of the true principles of democracy in the making and the enforcing of the laws and rushing as rapidly toward a Mexican confusion in the affairs of the nation as a detached star, chased by a detached comet. We are glad that Jack Johnson has become a citizen of France. The Negroes of this country do not need him for anything and never did. It cost him a great deal to whip Jim Jeffries, July 4, 1910, but he has some of the money and all of the glory yet; but it cost the Negro people more, because it gave him the means and the opportunity to make an exhibition of himself as a fellow of the baser sort" with "women We are constrained to agree with the President. There will be no justice in this country until there is absolute regard in the North and in the South for the rights of the humblest citizen. The man in the South who is most persecuted is the Negro. The inhuman and revolting tales that continue to come North of peonage and of mistreatment in convict camps sicken and discourage. We have just read one of these revolting stories, not in a Negro newspaper, but in a white newspaper, one of the most influential in the South, namely, the Montgomery Journal, published at Montgomery, Ala. We need not add any words of ours to describe the cruelties which are practiced in that section, but quote verbatim from the Journal. This is only one of the stories of atrocities which happened to come to the notice of the editors of the Journal. It says: A revolting and harrowing story of peonage, cruelty and bloodthirstiness was told to a Journal reporter this morning by a country Negro who escaped from his employer and came to Montgomery seeking the office of some official who would try and secure redemption for him. The Negro was told to tell his story to the Federal commissioner, and it is understood that he found that official and started the wheels of an exhaustive government investigation. The story of the Negro resembles the tales of cruelties in the Yucatan jute districts, and in a quarering, four-filled voice, the narrative seemed doubly pitiful. "City folks don't know anything about country darkeys," seemed to touch the keynotes of the entire situation, for the Negro declared that almost anything could happen to an African out in the country and me one would be the whiner, except the parties immediately concerned. Donald of its dramatic utterances the story which the Negro told the Journal reporter is substantially as follows: "I was working hard five days a week from before morning until late at night for $1.25 a day. My wife and I had a hard time getting along because I never made more than $7.50 a week, as we did not work more than six days a week, and generally only five. I heard that there was a man who wanted some Negroes and would pay $1.50 a day. I told my employer that I was going to quit, and we went to the commissary to figure out my bill. He said I owed almost twenty dollars, and I said I would get a man to pay my bill before I left. "He got me because I was determined to go and ask, 'I will take half of your bill out of your kid's. I begged him not to whip me, but he locked the doors so I couldn't get out. I was bleeding and raw and I was weak to yell. Then he let me go back to my cabin. My wife took care of me that night the next day. I found a man who would pay my debt. He went up to the barn and said he would pay my bill. The boys refused to take the money, and said he would send to the bill himself." "Before my friend could get back to my cabin-the bored bird on his horse and ridden across the fields to where I was. He made me lean over a log and while I was still sick from the other he himself he leashed me 300 times over the back, then turned me over and beat me over the stomach. I was like a man who had drunk a quart of whiskey. I couldn't move, but he pulled me over and tied me to a tree and beat me some more. I don't know how many times it must have been a hundred. I came mighty near dying. Then he said if you ever tell anyone of this I will you none." "But I had heard that the government was against white folks beating us Negroes so I laid quiet in my cabin for a week until I was able to go to Montgomery and躲 away. Now I want to tell some one about it who will tell the President. I am scared to go back because I have the bells will kill me but my wife is there and I am afraid the boss will beat her unless something is done right away." As proof that his story was no fabrication the Negro stripped off his clothes and showed newly beaked scars all over his body, presenting horrible evidences of a terrible beating. He was so weak and crippled that walking was difficult. We would ask, Mr. President, if, in the pursuit of justice, something could not be done by the Department of Justice to put an end to such conditions? The temptation, of course, is to use language of vehemence, but THE Age in soberness of spirit appeals to you and your great Department of Justice to put down such glaring injustices as the above article calls attention to. The editor of the Journal states that this story rivals those which come out of the Yucatan jute districts. We can remember nothing more disgraceful or unlawful than the recital of the barbarous cruelties above described. Again and again we appeal to you, Mr. President, to seek justice for those who are weak and who need the strong arm of the Government stretched forth to save them from the barbarities of men who seem less than human beings. In another column of this paper will also be found a story of convict misrement in Alabama. Certainly there must be some power within the Government to put a stop to the miserable conditions to which we respectfully call our attention. women and song," that has worked them germanent injury in many vita ways and in all parts of the earth. Plenty of white men of the sporting class are no better morally than Jack Johnson, but the white race leaves them to be responsible to themselves, to the law and to public opinion, while all of Jack Johnson that is vilest and vulgaris they have unloaded on the Negro as far as that could be done. But white men paid the big money he got for besting Jeffries and white women threw themselves at his feet in the hope of getting some of the white money the black libertine had in his possession and was unwise enough to spend lavisily on white strumpets. We hope, for his benefit, that Jack Johnson will make a better citizen of France than he made of the United States. AN INTERESTING DOCUMENT We presume that the creators of the submitted immortal 'document meant to honor our good friend, Mr. Charles W. Chesnutt, who is worthy of all honor but we are sure Mr. Chesnutt: would have been more fittingly honored if our good Washington friends could have seen it to express themselves in term that English-speaking people, who live and tread the earth and eat meat and bread, could understand: The teachers of the tenth, eleventh, twelfth and thirteenth divisions of the public schools of the District of Columbia, in meeting assembly to appreciate the work of Charles Waddell Chesnutt of Cleveland, O.. The two thousand American view of the colored man in the creature of an alien humanity and of radiantary spiritual life, accounts in large degree for the cruel care limitations placed upon the colored citizens of the Our school teacher friends in Wash- ington must be brought to appreciate the fact that there are a lot of common ordinary mortals who do not live in Washington and breathe its atmosphere and who have to be satisfied with ordinary every-day English. Then, too there are a lot of people living outside of Washington who have a good deal of work to do in earning a living and they haven't time to sit down, get a dictionary and a grammar to unravel complex, involved and perplexing sentences which flow without effort from the brains of a Washington school teacher. To illustrate some of the perplexities which an ordinary human being in reading this document is up against, let us take the following: Mr. Chanuann has done his country distinguished service by stimulating in Americans a thoughtful responsiveness to the demands of a common humanity and a common social duty: Of course, this may mean something but here in New York it will require a good deal of study and research to find out what it does mean. Let us try our hand still further on the following. We, in common with other Americans, have profited from the deep social truth and wealth of humanity of his writings. We wonder if the authors will be good enough to instruct us what they mean by "social truth" or "wealth of humanity". The following might be understood by Emerson, if he were living, but our fear is that it would be even too deep for the Concord philosopher. We do hereby express our appreciation for his interpretation to all human kind of the spiritual truth within the group of which we are a part. Perhaps all human kind might know what this means, but we confess, as ordinary individuals, we do not. We await with the most distinguished consideration further outpourings from the literary school teachers in Washington; in the meantime Mr. Chesnutt has our deepest sympathy and commiseration. It is so very seldom that one ever gets the rate and distinguished privilege of seeing a thought expressed in words from the pen of a Washington school teacher, whose life is spent in communion with the infinite, that we confess we welcome the first opportunity that we have had for a good many moons to try our hand at understanding and in deciphering this very illuminating document. We really do not need Mrs. Pankhurst, the leader of the English suffragates, in this country. Her ways at home have not been ways of pleasant and peace, but of hysteria and violence, of the sort of our own to contend with without addition of the foreign sort. A man's work in life will never be a woman's work, and a woman's work will never be a man's work. We will never be a woman's work. We once to herself, nor a he-she who was not a nuisance to everybody who saw him. the most important member of New York City's first twenty-five years. He was only their five years old when he did that, but that time he had accustomed a fortune as a business man and made much fame as a Republican politician, serving three times as Lieutenant Governor of New York. Mr. Woodruff even aspired to be Vice-President, and gave Mr. Platt, Mr. Quay and Mr. Hanna a lot of trouble at the Philadelphia convention in 1900, when McKinley and Roosevelt were nominated, to shake him off. The stairway and corridors leading to his suite of rooms in the Hotel Walton were thronged with delegates night and day while the three leaders struggled on another floor to settle the question of which should have second place—Woodruff or Roosevelt—on the ticket with McKinley, after Senator Hanna had won for his man the first place. Senator Platt over-reached himself in the effort to rid himself of a troublesome enemy in New York State by giving second place to Roosevelt instead of to Woodruff. It will be remembered that while the leaders wrangled the struggle was so great in the Hotel Walton that the elevator gave way and maimed and bruised many small politicians and a few big ones when it struck the bottom with a sickening thud. The Republican party may be said to have fallen down there and then, as it was then and there that Hanna, Platt and Quay divided its garment among them on a purely commercial basis, and loaded it without intending to do so with Col. Roosevelt, who strangled it to death for the time being last year, twelve years after, he drew the fatal lot at Philadelphia. And now they are all dead, of the six who drew lots at Philadelphia—McKinley, Hanna, Platt, Quay and Woodruff—except Col. Roosevelt, and his face is fixed toward the political past, having destroyed the faithful party bridge he had first and so often crossed to fame and fortune. Mr. Woodruff deserted the Republican party last year and joined the Progressive party. This fact may not have hastened his death, but must have embattered his last thoughts of life. THE BALLOT AND PROTECTION. In view of what has been going on in Baltimore and what is still going on, the question naturally arises. To what extent is the ballot in the hands of our people a protection against the wrongs and discriminations which they often suffer? All of the colored people in Baltimore vote, or are free to do so, and they have their ballots counted; but in some way it seems difficult for them to make their ballots effective in protecting themselves against racial discrimination and insult. GOV. STOKES KNOWN AS NEGRO'S FRIEND Special to THE N. J. O. Oct. 22—Edward C. Stokes, Republican candidate for Governor, has been the friend of the colored man. He has recognized the progress of the race and训令 the ancestors and the timeless doctor New Jersey. At different times during his term as governor he made recommendations which were in furtherance of the welfare of the colored population, and he did not permit those recommendations to go unabashed. In one of his most important public documents, his annual message to the legislature of 1807, he devoted a special Colored Citizens," in which he said, "The colored people of our State are subjects for consideration and care, educationally and industrially. These people, through no fault of their own, have been enjoyed by the whites. They gave this country two hundred and fifty years of unrequited toll, but with less than half a century of freedom they have, as a race, made marvellous accomplishments of property, in mental ability and in adaptability to conditions not altogether enviable." Gov. Stokes then called attention to the rapid increase of the colored population, the prevalence and patriotism demanded a recognition of this fact, and added: "Our State has not neglected its duty in this direction. It has provided liberally for the education of colored children making no distinction before them. He then took up specifically the needs of the school for Colored Youth at Bordentown, and said that Hampton and Tuskegee are illustrations of the possibilities of such institutions. He demanded that the State decide how far it would go in the further development of the school, and recommended increased facilities at the institution. As a result of this recommendation and of his further efforts the apper- ture of the State has been all but neglected took on a new life and was brought to a high state of vigor and efficiency. In what he has done for the colored people, as well as for the rest of the State, Stokes has been a consistent and persistent advocate of progress of a substantial and up-to-date sort. The Brooklyn Federation of Jewish Charities needs $195,000, and has begun a campaign to raise it in a stated time, to be held in Brooklyn and 1,000,000 in New York City. The pledges are pledged to take care of our own; it is just as good to let a man starve altogether as to let him half starve," said Rabbi Stephen S. Wise, our poor pastor, and we are beginning to learn that "we really are pledged to take, care of our own." The Jews have much wealth and some poverty; but if we will undertake our pledges honestly and bravely we shall be plenty of help from unexpected sources. The Committee of Chicago is in all respects the most important financial publication of the metropolis of the West. It is a public publication devoted to the commercial, financial, industrial, real estate and general business interests of that section. In its issue of October 10 it pays a great compliment to the Negro race generally and professionally in an appreciation of the leading Negro physician and surgeon of the race. It is not possible for money to pay space in a publication of this particular character, and it is all the more gratifying for that reason to note the unstinted words of praise of a member of our race. The article in full from the Commercial Chronicle follows: In a recent editorial one of the country's greatest journalists deplored the fact that physicians and surgeons who have blazed the trail of modern progress have been pressured by the people at large. Pastur and others, he said, had done more for humanity than Washington or Martin Luther, yet their names were unfamiliar to thousands who did not familiarize and care about history. Undoubtedly he was more or less right, but it is a fact that the general public is daily becoming more appreciative of the greatness of our surgeon. Undoubtedly he was more or less right, but it is a fact that the general public is daily becoming more appreciative of the greatness of our surgeon. Undoubtedly he was more or less right, but it is a fact that the world's leading surgeons, a man who paved the way for some of the most wonderful feats of modern surgery by the first surgeon to operate successfully upon the living human heart. We refer to Dr. Daniel H. Williams, a colored founder of the Provident Hospital at Dearborn and the first surgeon to operate upon the living human heart with complete success, sewing up the wound in the heart of a man who had been stabbed and left for dead. The man is living and the operation having been performed in 1893. Dr. Williams founded the Provident Hospital in 1892. This institution never would have been possible but for his dedication own personal efforts. He solicited the establishment of its own establishment and for many years, was its chief surgeon after its great work had been begun. Dr. Williams was born in Pennsylvania in 1858, and was educated in Wisconsin as a child. He was educated in the Wisconsin schools and later in Northwestern University. He began the practice of medicine in Chicago in 1892. He is a member of the Medical Association of the State Medical Society, Chicago Medical Society, and was on the surgical staff of the Protestant Orphan Asylum from 1892 to 1893. He was a member of the Medical Association from 1894 to 1898. From 1899 to 1891 he was a member of the Cook County Hospital surgical staff. He is now on the staff of St. Luke's Hospital. For five years, during the second admin. period of Dr. Williams was surgeon in chief of the Freedmen's Hospital, Washington, D. C., the largest Nerro hospital in the world. For a number of years he has toured the South once each year, giving clinics at southern Negro medical schools. Dr. Williams is one of the most successful surgeons in America to-day and is a fine example of the self-accentuating physician who modestly acquires great knowledge. He represents American attentiveness at its best. COLUMBUS OHIO Columbus, Ohio, Oct. 21.—J. Williams, head waiter, arrived in the city from New York and is now superintendent service at the Great St. John's Hotel. John L. Sullivan represents a Philadelphia insurance company. He is the only colored agent. Gerald Tyler, formerly of this city, was born St. Louis, where in the city last Wednesday night to take a part in the rendition of "Hiwatha's Departure."

He is organizer of the Negro Business League throughout the United States and Canada. A. Craik, North 4th street, has gone to Indianapolis, Ind., to make his future home.

The governor is to be commended for cancelling the Mobile and Baldwin with a naval stores company in Escambia County, because of the alleged inhuman treatment of convicts. A thorough investigation of all the convicts since the governor probably acted as quickly as he could consistently do so, but the delay in taking those unfortunate prisoners from their inhuman treatment has been made public by the Birmingham Age-Herald. For months reports have been current that the prisoners in the care of the Huxford-Orville Company were being constantly beaten, driven to work, and deprived of health if they revealed the horrible conditions under which they were compelled to labor. Only recently Lon F. Greer, an official of the state commissioned an investigation which developed nothing, and reported that the convicts were happy and contented; that their food was excellent. The revelations made to the special commission by the governor comes as a thunderclap. "The Atmore investigation should not stop here. Every effort should be made to bring justice to those who have imposed upon us the humiliation and their hands by an overtrusting state. Such outrages as those which have been perpetrated at Atmore should not go unpunished." Just because a man is so unhappy to do so, he should reason why he should be whipped and starved. They are still human beings and should be treated as such. The Journal hopes the governor will deep into the matter and get the true motion of every convict camp in the state.

SUPERIOR TO COPAIBA & INJECTIONS SANTAL CAPTIVE MIDY RELIEVES IN 24 HOURS troopers are taking advantage of the first opportunity presented them this season to see a colored musical show. The company opened to a full house Monday afternoon, and at Monday evening's performance the S. R. O. sign bespoke just how conditions existed within to all who were unfortunate enough to wend their way leisurely to the theatre after the hour set for the rising of the curtain. There have been many changes made in "The Old Man's Boy" since the piece was seen at the Lafayette last June. Numerically the company is somewhat smaller, but dramatically it is a larger offering. A prologue lasting eight minutes has been prefixed, a piece of dramatic construction which has done much to make the plot more easy of comprehension. It has further served to make the last act more potent in its dramatic accents as well as to strengthen the dominant idea with an atmosphere of consistency, uniformity and dramatic unity To comment on a colored musical show and seriously refer to the dramatic situations contained therein might provoke a smile from some who have not seen the Negro Players in "The Old Man's Boy." but nevertheless there are real dramatic scenes just the same—scenes tense and heart-gripping and which appeal to the emotions. The effect of bad acting is similar to that produced by bad cooking—the result is not inspiring. But when actors, be they colored or white, prove themselves masters of the science of stagecraft, then the heartstrings are touched, and there is awakened a responsive chord. Although colored actors have not impressed the public to date in plays calling for serious dramatic work, it cannot be gainaid that the dramatic scenes in "The Old Man's Boy" enacted in the prologue and the last act are the motor power of the piece and hold the audience longer and stronger than anything else. As Hiram Wilson, Sr., Alex Rogers has a chance to show what he knows about character acting and lives up to the expectations of those who know what he can do in that direction. As a character actor Mr. Rogers ranks high, belonging to that class of ambitious actors who hopes some day that conditions will allow him to do what he likes best. The next claimant for histrionic honors is Charles Gilpin, who, in his work with Mr. Rogers in the last act demonstrates that he, too, is a character actor above the average. Both these performers know much about enunciation and the art of making up. Lavinia Rogers, as Martha Wilson, is an admirable mother, and Andrew Bishop, who plays the part of Hiram Wilson, Jr., has evidently been put through a hard course of instruction since his last appearance at the Lafayette Theatre, for the improvement in his work is quite marked. Billy Harper is now the leading disciple of mirth, and he fills the job capitally. Harper is one funny little man. In "The Old Man's Boy" he is demonstrating his ability to successfully shoulder the burdens of a comedian in a show. First appearing as a performer who had lost his only shirt and later as a king, Harper skips through the show scattering laughter here and there. He has three songs, the last one—something about "Castle on the Isle of Coal"—being the best. I am a bit inaccurate as to titles of songs, etc., owing to the absence of programs. Henry S. Creamer, has taken some more raw material in hand and whipped them into dancers who can dance. Then he continues to favorably impress with his terpsichorean work, and Monday evening I heard many remark: "What a difference between Creamer when he is walking and when the music strikes up and he starts to dancing!" Mr. Creamer could save himself much unnecessary work by not striving to be too realistic. There are times he appears on the stage and uses technical terms to his chorus people and orchestra which are not understood by the ordinary theatre goer. Alice Gorgas, soprano soloist, while applauded Monday evening in her songs, did not receive the consideration she merited. While Miss Gorgas shows that she is still an amateur by invariably singing to one side of the house, etc., yet she is to-day the most promising young soprano on the stage, and a year's activity on the road should round her out wonderfully. Ruth Cherry is as dainty as ever in her dancing specialties, and she is also filling the role of Pearl Wilson with credit. To see Grayee Lee-Cook work it is difficult for one to believe that less than a year ago she had never been in the show business. With her voice and ginger she is bound to become a soubrette of no little ability. Jessie Ellis has burst forth from the During the first act Marie Lucas, who is musical director for the Negro Players, played a trombone solo, and as usual was compelled to respond to encores. This is my third review of the Negro Players within six months. Such a large quantity of ink has not been used because of the dearth of colored theatrical attractions, but because the struggle of the company for just recognition is one worthy of the support of all who believe in the elevation of the theatrical profession by clean, wholesome shows and companies composed of young men and women who are intelligent and respect themselves.

Through the kind offices of Klaw & Erlanger, the Shuberts Stair & Havlin and the following exchanges, American Theatrical, John Cort, Narons Affiliated, Julius Cahn, John I Coleman, Charles Burt and Wingfields, Mr. Voelckel has been enabled to secure a perfect route, commencing November 1 and continuing for lives sit up and take notice.

Say, let me tell you this is some town. Nearly 3,000,000 inhabitants, lively and cosmopolitan. We are playing at the Apollo Theatre. Will be there six weeks, then to Hong Kong for six weeks, thence to Manila and the Philippines for three months, then return to Hong Kong for three weeks, thence to Vladivostock, Russia, for three months. Return to Shanghai for three weeks, then back home to dear old Honolulu. Both Mrs. Wise (Katie Milton) and myself are in fine health and a tremendous hit here. No color line in this country, thank God. Wise and Milton is the first colored sketch to play China, as well as the first to play Australia, New Zealand, Honolulu and Sua, Fiji Islands. Sort of a pathfinder for Aunt Hager's children. There is a reason for us making our home in the South Seas. I wish more good colored people would migrate to Honolulu. There is plenty of room and need of them, but it seems our folks can't or will not get away from the "cushion". We have a nice home in Honolulu and plenty of work in the Southern Seas to keep us going, and the greatest of all, we are recognized as creatures that God made. We forget our shade in a country where "a man is a man for a" that. Yet we live beneath the same old banner, the same stars and stripes, but--there's a difference! We get THE Ack regularly at home and the agent at Honolulu is going to forward them to me. I am forwarding you a copy of the Shanghai Weekly. Kindly remember us to the members of the theatrical profession and friends. Very truly yours. (Signed) LIEN WISE Care of Wise & Milton. Apollo Theatre, Shanghai, China. Lincoln's Knock Chalmers Out of Box Seeking revenge for the defeat administered them the previous Sunday, the Lincoln Giants used their war clubs with telling effect against the curves of Chalmers, the crack pitcher of the Philadelphia Nationals, last Sunday at Olympic Field. Before the smoke of battle had cleared away Chalmers had been chased from the mound. The score ended: Lincoln Giants, 7; Mack's All Stars, 3. The score: Merchouse 38. Morris Brown 0. Morehouse 38, Morris Brown 0. In its first football-game of the season Morehouse College, formerly known as Atlanta Baptist College, met Morris Brown University Saturday, October 18, on the campus of Morris Brown and overwhelmed the opposing team—38 to 0. As Morehouse College was last year for undisputed champion of the South, the game was chiefly interesting as affording some opportunity for study of this year's team. The result was eminently satisfactory from the Morehouse standpoint. Capt. Parks, on account of the unusual roughness of the field, could take no unnecessary risks with his men, and was forced to restrict his efforts as much as possible to one section of the field. The Morehouse schedule for the rest of the season includes games with Clark, Atlanta University, Talladega, Tuskegee and Fisk. Smart Set Electe Officerr Smart Set Elects Officers.

Atlanta, and that there is no place provided for the petty offender except the stockade, which breeds criminals. As Seen by President Ware "Edward T. Ware, President of the Atlanta University, has written the following letter commending the crusade of the Constitution and pointing out deplorable conditions in the Negro schools: "Editor Constitution: I wish to thank most sincerely for the leading article on the first page of your issue of October and for your strong editorial upon the subject. If the citizens of Atlanta realize what neglect of school affairs means they will surely bestir themselves to better the existing conditions. "The conditions in the Pittsburgh colored school were spoken of as 'barbarous.' The whole situation in the middle school facilities for the Negroes might be termed barbarous. Bad as they are in the white schools, they are worse in the colored schools. The simple fact that there are about 3,750 seats in the public school system for Negro children and over 6,000 children in school suggests the prevailing conditions. This means that there are several sessions in all of the schools, in some of them including the sixth grade. One can imagine the inefficiency of such a system, the pupils, living for half of the day, the streets and getting only three and one-half hours of school work a day, when they ought to have at least five; the terrible burden upon the teacher who has to meet one set of children in a crowded room in the morning and another fresh set equally crowded in the afternoon. "At this time when the Constitution is making such a powerful plea for better school conditions I wish especially to emphasize the conditions of the Negro schools. It is instinctive and perhaps inevitable that the city should think first of the welfare of the white children, and yet when we consider that Negroes are dependent for all they get upon city government in which they are no share, is it not evident that the responsibility upon the city for the welfare of the Negroes is quite as great as the sponsibility for the welfare of the white children? I sincerely hope that in whatever appropriations may be made to relieve the conditions to which you have called attention, there may be due consideration to the needs of the children of both races. Editorially speak in very strong language, but not strong for the conditions which you have discussed. "Sincerely yours, "EDWARD T. WARE, "President Atlanta University. "October 8, 1813." DIES APPARENTLY POOR, LEAVES MUCH PROPERTY It has developed that Thomas Robinson, late of 12 Sixth avenue, who died August 9 at Grosvenor Hospital, apparently a pauper, was really the owner of property and cash amounting to between $6,000 and $10,000, the property consisting of New Jersey and Long Island lots, with about $200 in cash. Mr. Robinson lived with the Rev. S. H. Hale at the above number. The man had known each other since 1876, and as boys had steamedboated together Robinson was stouter and stronger than Hale and would often help Hale with his work that he might hold his job. Notwithstanding their long friendship Hale did not know that Robinson had accumulated anything, and when it seemed that Robinson, who had become addicted to drink, had no place to stay, Hale took him in and gave him a room at a nominal rent, which rent, however, was seldom paid. Robinson was 78 years old and he belonged to the old Robinson family formerly of New Haven, Conn., of which he was the only survivor. Several times during the past two or three years he had remarked to Hale that he would eventually pay him for his kindness. When he died it was discovered that he had left a will, naming the Rev. Samuel M. Hale as his heir and making him executor of the estate. The property consists of a house and fifteen acres of land at Pinebrook, N. J., ten lots at Babylon, Long Island, two lots at Rose THE NEW YORK AIR WEEKDAY, OCTOBER 22, 1888 dale, Long Island, and the cash money. The whole estate has an approximate value of $10,000 to $10,000. WIDOW OF DR. BLYDEN Mrs. E. W. Blyden, widow of the late Dr. Edwin Wilmot Blyden, is now a resident of the Lincoln Hospital Home, where she is well taken care of and provided for through the liberal generosity and disinterested kindness of Hon. William Dalton, deputy state election commissioner, of 436 Seventh avenue, who became interested in her case and made the necessary financial arrangements which made it possible for her to be placed in the home. Mrs. Blyden had been staying with her son at 113 West 53d street, and George W. Young became interested in her case. When Mr. Dalton made it financially possible, Mr. Young made arrangements for her reception at Lincoln Home, and secured from Benj. F. Thomas, of the Broadway Auto School, the use of an automobile and chauffeur to take her to the home. She was removed on Friday, October 3, being accompanied by Miss Stella Anderson, of Keyport, N. J., a sister-in-law of Mr. Thomas, who volunteered her services as escort. Mrs. Blyden is very old and feeble, and paralysis of one side makes it necessary for her to have constant attendance. DONNER LA Donner, La., Oct. 17.—Pomegranate Lodge, U. D. of F. & A. M., entertained M. W. G. M. John G. Lewis Sunday, October 12, with a splendid reception at Gibson.

McKissack and Miss Shirley Williams have returned from Evanston, Ill., where they have been spending a few weeks with Mrs. Henry Butler. Miss J. J. Elliott and daughter, Miss Whelock, have returned from a long trip to Denver, Colo. The Rev. Dr. J. T. Docking, who has been for many years engaged in educational work in the South, and is now the president of Rust University at Holly Springs, Miss., has proved himself to be a friend of the race, everywhere proclaiming the brotherhood of man and urging a square deal for all. Dr. Docking spent his vacation at his summer home in Rhode Island and was fully occupied in going among the churches lecturing in the interest of Christian education and the jubilee movement. He went West as far as Nebraska, where he lectured before the Methodist annual conferences, representing the Freedmen's Aid Society and the successful work it is doing for the Negroes of the South.
