FORTUNES IN FRUIT
FOR SOUTHERN FARMERS
Special to The New York App
TUSKERGE INSTITUTE, Aha, July 7.—A revolution in farm industry everywhere throughout the South is going on through the changing attitude of the farmers not only towards what the professors terms, diversification in crops, but towards the small farm husbandries. During the last ten years it has been rediscovered that the soil of the South is rich for fruit growing, and the markets are anxious for Southern fruit, particularly for the Southern reach, the best peach that can be bought. Many fortunes have been built up recently upon 'fruit growing, and progressive farmers in great numbers in all sections are turning to the cultivation of orchards:
A few years ago an Alabama farmer went to Texas to try out the land there in cotton and cattle raising. He failed miserably and turned back to Alabama. He bought up some deserted land in Central Alabama at $10 an acre, and turned the whole tract into a peach orchard. Now he has 1,100 trees, mostly lowwheeleds the employs a dozen helpers and the country, and a market. In South Mississippi the farm is located in archvale and its territory, big orchards are taking the place of plantations.
At Tuskegee Institute there are several orchard devoted to fruit growing, and 120 acres of land are given over wholly to this department of the agricultural course. Tuskegee's orchard contains 12,000 peach trees, 140,000 strawberry plants, 3,850 grapevines and 285 fig trees. Shipments of orchards being made daily to nearby markets. Tuskegee realizes what the fruit growing industry will mean ten years from now, and offers colored men and women and family to study it as a business and a science.

Jerritt was chairman of the reception committee. Meals were served to all the guests.
The institution is indecorporated under the laws of the State of New York and its general purpose, is to furnish a summer home for women and girls who cannot afford the high prices at fashionable resorts. Among the improvements, this year was the installing of a bath-room. Mrs. Laura Dease donated $65 toward this and others have promised enough to cover the cost of the work.
The home was the recipient of many donations, a swing from Miss Lea Thomas, 225 West 40th street, being appreciated. The home will remain open until October 1.
GRANTS USE OF PLOT AS HARLEM PLAYGROUND
Through the efforts of John M. Royall, the real estate agent, the Mutual Life Insurance Co. has consented to the use of the grant plot on the west side of 138th street, between Leinox and Fifth avenue, for playground purposes. The presidency of theorough of Manhattan, Marcus M. Marks, is being appealed to that the plot may be graded and properly equipped for playground purposes.
This is in keeping with the platform of Mr. Royall in his candidacy for Alderman last fall, when he advocated playgrounds for the children of Harlem. He has also secured on the Metropolitan Street Railway Co. the promise of free transportation for mothers and children under 14 years of age, to the Van Cortland, and Bronx Parks, on certain days of the week.
WHITE.MEN'S JOKE IS DEATH FOR OLD NEGRO. Special to The New York Age
Mizzeros, Md., July 8 - Benjamin Gozee, an old Negro, seventy-one years old, is dead as the reguity, of what is claimed to be a practical joke perpetrated by Joseph Darby and George Gozee, two young, white, men, with whom Gozee had been drinking. Darby said that Gozee became stuffed from drink and they could not arouse him. The oil from a kerosene Jamp was poured on his clothing and ignited, and before the flames could be extinguished Gozee was burned so severely he died in a few minutes. The two white men were taken to Salisbury, Md., and confined in the county jail, charged with causing the old man's death. Darby assumed sole responsibility, claiming the deed was intended as a practical joke and that he and Sloppes were and had always been friendly toward Gozee. The Negroes of the community are demanding that the full penalty of the law be visited upon Darby and Sloppes because of the heinous nature and disastrous result of the so-called "practical joke."

BISHOP WALTERSTO HEAR APPEAL IN BOLDEN CASE
Dr. Jacobe Files Appeal from Action of N.Y. Conference, Bishop Hood Presiding
Action of New York Conference Defined as Unreasonable and Arrogant, and Contrary to the Church Custom-Law Granting Appeal Mandatory in Wording
Much interest is being excited in the ranks of the A. M. E. Zion New York Conference by the appeal which has been taken by the Rev. Dr. F. M. Jagob, 416 God street, Brooklyn, as counselor in the case of the Rev. Richard Manuel Bolden, who was expelled from the conference at its last session held in Mt. Mernon, N. J. June 11-13. Under the church law Mr. Bolden has the right of appeal to a bishop other than the one presiding over this conference, who is required to summon a committee known as "Triers of Appeals"—to consider the matter.
Declaring the action of the recent New York conference to be unreasonable, arrogant and not in accordance with the custom of the church in procedure of this kind, Dr. Jacobs has filed the appeal with Bishop Alexander Walters of the 35th Episcopal District, at the same time calling attention to the wrongness of the pact action. Bishop Walters has declared that the matter will receive his prompt attention. The appeal was filed with him on July 3.
The Rev. Mr. Bolden, who was received time to present his witnesses, and given only five minutes in which to secure counsel, when his case was called before a committee at the session of the conference last month, expresses himself as confident of exoneration. He is proceeding with his work as head of the Emanuel Church. 105 West 130th street, and says that rich results are attained each day.
The following is the text of the appeal

Annual Conference and A. M. E. Z. Church, upon the ground that the proceedings of both committee and conference were unreasonable, arrogant, and not in accordance with the custom of the church in procedure of this kind.
We pray you, therefore, to convene a committee in our church policy as "Triers of Appeal" in accordance with paragraph 269 and paragraph 299 of the discipline of 1912 issue of the A. M. E. Church.

ALBANY SALOON MAN
ALBANY, N. Y., July 8—Race discrimination received a hard jolt in this city last week through the suit brought by Alexander Walker in the City Court against Edward Dooley, proprietor of a saloon on South Pearl street, for refusing to sell him a glass of beer on account of his race and color. After a jury-trial Mr. Walker was awarded a judgment for $100 damages. Mr. Walker and a party of white friends entered this saloon and ordered drinks, but the bartender informed Mr. Walker that he would have to pay $1 for a glass of beer. All the party walked out without drinking anything and the above action was brought with in a few days following.

WARNS IMMIGRANTS
The Act is in receipt of the following letter from the secretary to the President of the Republic of Liberia, which is self-explanatory. The letter:
To the Editor of THE AGE:
Fifty-four immigrants arrived at Monrovia a few days ago from Live Oaks, Florida, whose coming was a complete surprise to the Government of Liberia. President Howard learns from these people that they came out here on the representations of one Harrison C. Powell, a Librarian citizen now nephew or a near relative of us. It is also learned that Mr. Powell is regaling himself as an authorized immigration agent for Liberia, giving assurances to persons that he has made every arrangement with the Liberian Government for their reception and comfort, and all that is necessary for them to do is to manage to get here.
These representations are absolutely false and grossly misleading, and in view of the disappointments and serious discomforts which may follow to persons placing belief in them, the President feels compelled to state that Mr. Powell is not a relation of his nor does he represent the Government of Liberia in any capacity whatsoever.
About three years ago the Government of Liberia assisted Mr. Powell to the extent of reaching Taskeegee institute, Alabama, for the purpose of completing an engineering course but for some unknown reason it soon left Taskeegee state which the Government has been to complete ignorance of Powell's operations. The Government of Liberia has no immigration agent in the United States, and the President desires to make it known, through this medium, that no credence whatever should be placed in the representations of Harrison C. Powell.
Immigrants of respectable habits and sterling character are desired by Liberia, but before they think of coming out here it is necessary that official information of this intention should be had by the Government of Liberia so that necessary preparations may be made for the reception and disposal of such immigrants. It is pleasing to state that these fifty-four immigrants have been cordially received and are satisfied with what they have seen. Their needs have been amply supplied and preparations are now being made for their allotments of land. There is every reason to believe that they will have no cause to regret the change they have made.
Signed:
WALTER F. WALKER.
Secretary to the President.

GEORGIA DEMOCRATS FIGHT FAKE PROMISES
Candidates for U. S. Senate Use Race Prejudice in Campaign as an Issue
BUGABOO USED TO FRIGHT
Atlanta Constitution Springs Sensation by Exposing Candidates' Use of 'Same Old Tactics,' and Warns White People Not to be Misled—Joe Brown Opposing Hoke Smith:
SPECIAL TO THE NEW YORK ACE
ATLANTA, Ga., July 7. The sensation of the present political campaign in this State for a successor to the late U. S. Senator A. O. Blaçon was sprung by the Atlanta Constitution in its issue of July 2 when it published the following editorial:
SAME OLD TACTICS
The political situation in Georgia reminds us of "Hob" Toombs' story about the white man, the Negro and the pearly gates. The white man, Toombs said, wanted to negotiate heaven. Peter at the gate told him he would have to come mounted. So he returned to earth and induced a Negro to serve as steed, artfully instilling that plus equipped both of them could be the hallejugah land. They arrived in the celestial portals. "The your horse outside, and come on in," said the good gatekeeper.
It's been that way in Georgia politics since the cows came home. Everybody knows how it works. The demagogue gets out on the stump and by every cheap device imaginable appeals to race prejudice. He promises with a blinding oath to repeal the fourteenth and fifteenth amendments. He crosses his heart and swears himself purposeful in the face that whim he is inflicted by the house or the Senate he will see there in the Negro federal appointments. The campaign ends—and with it comes an end of the "issue" until it is resurrected for the same use in the next campaign.
The current Georgia campaign brings about the usual practical of the eternal "higher book." Once more they are going to ride the migrant up to the political heavily armed Army they have been on the Negro outside, for two more years until the next campaign. Time and again they have slid into office on the back of race prejudice, oozing promises to distrainise the Negro nationally, and to prize him away from the pre-counter and failed attempt to prize him afterwards they took their seats.
The people of Georgia are aware to these chap, biscine and contemptible cattle.
I hold that candidate who can find any stray passess than the "higher under suspicion" other than the promised other issues. I do make the old gossip, sophistical promises about the migrant—promises experience proves will not be kept. The people of Georgia have cut their political eyewitness. They know hypocrisy and buncoming when they see it.
The institution, in referring particularly to the candidates of Tom Fielder, exonerator general, and Congressman Tom Hardwick, who are candidates for the U. S. Senate in opposition to Governor John M. Slaton and whose utterances on the stump are largely based upon promises to do away with the Negro as a political factor in the government.
Ex-Governor Joseph M. Brown has thrown consternation into Hoke Smith's camp by shying his castor into the rang as an opponent to Hoke Smith, who is a candidate for re-election to the U. S. Senate for the long term. Governor Brown is a statesman and upright gentleman, and his announcement, while sudden, has mobilized a sentiment against Hoke Smith that is causing Smith to shed perspiration like rain drops.
SCHOOL YARDS OPENED
Pintuarity, Pia. July 8- Schoolyards in all sections of the city were opened to colored children on July 1 as recreation centers, under the supervision of the teachers.

DR. HAYES TAKES
PRESIDENT TO TASK
Before prescribing his regular sermon Sunday morning, Dr. Winn, P. Hayes, jr. pastor of Mt. Olivet Baptist Church, took occasion to comment upon the Independence Day speech of President Wilson, delivered at. Independence Square, Philadelphia, on July 4, in which the President sought to justify his Mexican policy on the ground of "interested benevolence." Dr. Hayes declared that the President had neglected to make any attempt to remedy the condition of the Negro in this country, "Buzens all who were treated as bad as were the Mexican peon. Said Dr. Hayes:
"President Wilson seeks to justify his interference in Mexican affairs on the very high ground of "interested benevolence." His heart has been touched by the crys of the submerged portion of the population of this disaffected nation, and his sympathies for the elderly five per cent, of the Mexican people who have never been allowed a look-in in regard to their government and the rights which have been exercised by the other fifteen per cent. He wants us to understand that he is fighting the battles of the war against the victims of exploitation at the hands of the merciless plutocrats of that country:
"But—why should Mr. Wilson order this expensive expedition, benevolent though it be, into Mexico, when even the ngrieved parties themselves have not asked his help." there in his own country are ten million Americans who are sighmerged with Mexico and they have repeatedly implored his friendly offices in their behalf, and he has consistently refused to be moved by their appeals. Mr. Wilson must know that the peons of Mexico are not disfranchised by law, and even—if they were, it is Mexico's business, not ours, to see that they secure their rights. Here in this country are black men who have been imprisoned by legislators, not freedmen. They have cried aloud for help, but in the words of another, 'the only answer has been the echo of their wailing cry.'
"Now If Mr. Wilson is desirous of trying out his altruism, why does he not address himself to this gigantic home problem?" Why offer his services where they are, and refuse to do them where they are? "Now If Mr. Wilson has conceived himself before the bar of public opinion of arrant hypocrisy, and nothing can change this verdict until he stops muddling the Mexican situation and applies his humanitarian proachments to the unfortunate millions at his door."

PRICE FIVE CENTS
WOMEN WANTED TO BOYCOTT AGE
Adopt Resolutions Censuring Editor Moore for Speech They Did Not Like.
FEDERATION WORKED UP
Place Wrong Construction on Utterances of the Speaker and Proceed to Express Their Sentiments in Regard Thereto.
GOOD ADVICE NOT WANTED
Afterward Adopt Plan Suggested by Editor for Raising Funds, for the Execction of a Monument to Harriet Tubman at Auburn, N. Y.
The Empire State Federation of Women's Clubs ended its session for the year at Concord Baptist Church, Duffield street, Brooklyn, Friday night, July 5, after a meeting notable principally for a movement to boycott The New York Age because of remarks reputed to have been made in a speech to the federation by that paper's editor, Fred R. Moore, and by the adoption of a plan for the raising of money to assist the Harriet Tubman Neighborhood Club of New York in erecting a monument over the grave of the deceased Irowe; Harriet Tubman, at Auburn, N. Y.
The address of Mr. Moore was made on Wednesday, the opening day, and it was the main topic of interest throughout the rest of the session. In the course of his remarks Mr. Moore referred by name to several Negro lawyers who employ white girls as stenographers, instead of giving an opportunity to colored girls to do the work. He said that black women have a hard time seeking employment. White people look out for their own and the women's own needs, and the conditions which exist. The part of his speech to which exceptions were taken by the women was when he referred to the need of enticing out so much platform oratory and getting down to practical doing of things. From after developments the women construed this to mean that Mr. Moore wanted the federation to get rid of its "platform women."
Women Adopt Resolutions.
This is contained by the text of life resolutions which were adopted by the women. The Ace editor being strongly excoriated and condemned for the repudiated statement.
Mr. Moore also referred in his remarks to conditions in Harlem and spoke favorably of Brooklyn's condition morally and from a home standpoint. The women took exceptions to this also, and the resolutions contained some scorching words in rebuke of that utterance. The full text of the resolutions, as referring to the editor of The Ace, presented by the committee on resolutions, of which Miss Minnie Brown of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People was chairman, is as follows:
"RESOLVED. That the Empire State Federation of Women's Clubs most solemnly resent the statement made by the editor of The New York Ace, that we are rid of our platform women. We take pleasure in informing the brainy editor of The New York Ace that every woman elected to office in the various organizations of this federation have done noble work and are not more ornamentals, as the assertion implies.
"We also present the assertion that there are few good colored women in Harlem, for we know that there are hundreds of respectable, well educated, refined women of our race, not only in Harlem, but throughout Greater New York and the world. We feel that such a statement, coming from such a source, does our race a great tribute."
"We may not know as much about the different types of our sex as the author of the above statements, but our achievements, which are easily seen and told of, in church, home and school room, is a universal aid of the more presentation."
Adopt Plan Suggested by Editor
**Response of the edition of Tug Not in this concordance and effective manner the women at the federation proceeded to adopt a plan suggested practically by Mr. Moore for the raising of funds for the Harriet, Tulman monument. It was decided and promised by the women that each member of clubs affiliated with the State Federation would contribute the sum of 10 cents, that amount to be sent on or before September 22 to Mrs. Harriet Johnson, 1027 Fremont avenue, Ozoma Park, I., measured, Ozoma Park, N. Neighborhood Club New York City. It is estimated that if the women fulfill their pledges in this particular, approximately $400 will be raised for the monument. In the meantime it is expected that work on the monument will be carried forward without delay.
Besides the opposition to The Ace editor, the federation also went on record as being opposed to indulgence in the social glass and to the vogue of

deserve -great credit for forcing the issue on the railroad in the State
Courts, “Waxcan all appreciate the sentiments of Hon, D. P. Smith,
Commonwealth Attorney of the Sixth Judiciat District, as expressed
in his letter to THe AcE of last week, as follows:
The principle involved in these prosecutions is whether.or not a col-
gored. man shall he: forced to receive a hali a pdund for the price of a pound,
ge whether a dollar in the hands of a hiack mar is worth any less than
jollar.in the hands of a white man. It is just as wrong to give a colored
man, inferior transportation for the maximum fare as it would be to give
him /half-valued merchandise or the top’ price. . > .
»T mean to push these prosecutions against all the railroads in my dis-
trict-until the, evil is abated. without regard to whose ax js gored. Li these
cases are nof sufficient, I ‘vill indict them again,
“If allof the ‘prosecuting officers of the Southern States, were of
like mind-with Mr. Smith we should have a far better condition .of
affairs, not only: in travel Conditions but in every gtheF. direction, where
the administration of the laws, whether’ just -or unjust, touch the life
f the people, all of the people. aud shoukd assure to ail and-each, the
equal and exact measurement ‘oi Justice. But Mr. Smith is a very
rare exception. lt would be like hunting for a needlesin a “haystack
to find another one like him in’ the Southern States. That is a very
bad condition of’ affairs fér the Southern States.” -it is symptomatic of
great troubles to come in the future that, are not written in the books
what States sow in the present. they reap in the future: they, can no
more run away from thejr acts than individuals can. So much we kivow
ay to the lw of spieiluhl repritats: 40 much we know aecfocts of the
history of nations and the biographies of men, great and small, -
Tt is casy enough for the Nation and thé wise men who rue its
destinies to reason that the Nation is strong,-like Samson, and, there-
fore, can do as it will in its relations to foreign natiéns or with its own
people; but they do not carry the reasoning: far enough if they stop at
that, they should’ go on to the tragedy of Samson for his wrong doing
fand of his nation finally for doing similar wrongs agaiiist itseli, It,is
[good to have the strength of a ginut,.but-it is not safe to use it as a brute,
in’ utter disregard of the rights of others, whether they be igdividuals
lor nations; and when they do it as either they are held to account? Ty
whom? The ‘foolish individual and the foalish nation may ask thai,
if they will, but no Wisé’man would think of asking it, Where is she
wiseman2s? ~ rv 3 -
It is the business of the colored people to invoke the Jaw that they
may’ secuse the ‘full meastire of such treatment as is granted them in
separate, car laws, and. in all other laws of separation that make un:
nattiratybrutal and sinusual distinctions between citizens. If tlvey do not
do so itwill riot'be done. Injustice docs not right tseli but, rather

THE MUSICIAN
100-VOICE CHORUS IN JERSEY
LARGE CROWDS AT THE LAKE
A CANTATA IN JERSEY.
(BY LUCIEN H. WHITE.)
Tuesday night, July 7, at White Eagle Hall, 335 Newark avenue, Jersey City, fair-sized audience heard the St. Paul's Musical Association of Orange, Newark and Montclair sing the operatic cantata, "The Haymakers." The association, numbering one hundred voices, is under the director of Wilson Lamb of Orange, chorister at the A. M. E. Church of that place. He organized the body of singers about a year ago and has succeeded remarkably well in maintaining its personnel intact.
The cantata sung Tuesday night has been given by the body several times and to much larger audiences, it is said, than Jersey City gave them. However, the concert was under the auspices of the Bethel A. M. E. Church, the Rev. A. L. Murray, pastor, and he is authority for the statement that it was not a financial loss.
Prof: Lamb seems to be an earnest, conscientious worker along the lines he has laid down, and he deserves credit for the manner in which he is carrying out his purposes. To get together a body of even a half hundred singers and keep them interested and loyal to the extent of practising even once a week is an achievement of no mean proportions. In the case of the St.
FIDDLER & S
At Lafayette Theatre W
Paul's Association I understand that Mr. Wilson has kept together one hundred singers, for a whole year, with practices at times as often as three and four times weekly. If nothing more was said about it, this would bring its need of praise to him. As to the results achieved, musically speaking, something else must be said.
The director is handicapped by a lack of material, evidently. The quality, strange to say, is all with the male voices. That is speaking as a whole. It is an unusual condition that in so large a number of women's voices there should not be several of more than passing excellence. But not so in this case. Of the principals, there are three women and four men. Three of the men have good voices, the two tenors having voices that might be developed into being extra good voices. Of the three women, only one, the soprano, has a voice that pleased, and you wouldn't want to hear her sing too often unless she got rid of an unfortunate habit of hunching the left shoulder continually while singing. As to the other solo voices the less said the better.
The work of the chorus was very good, with the male voices continuing to predominate in quality. The ability of Prof. Wilson was given a better chance with the chorus, and the result was pleasing. The attack was prompt and with precision and the shading was good. The director's control was absolute and the response quick and sure. Mr. Wilson has been laboring for a long while in the Jersey section to develop musical taste and appreciation and he probably is beginning to feel that his work has not been in vain, at the same time realizing that there remains much land to be possessed.
The principal singers -were Miss Pinkie Anderson of Orange, soprano; Miss Georgia Dean of Orange, alto; Mrs. John Smith of Orange, soprano; Oscar W. Brooks of Newark, tenor; L. White of Orange, tenor; William II. Young of Orange, baritone; W. II. Dunn of Newark, basso. The accompaniments were splendidly played by
Miss Ethel Richardson of the Damrosch Conservatory, New York, with George Delk of Orange and M. L. Van Dyke of Newark, violinists.
The Rev. A. L. Murray, pastor of Bethel A. M. E. Church, introduced the Rev. R. B. Smith, presiding elder of the Newark district of the A. M. E. Church, who was formerly pastor at the church of which Prof. Lamb is chorister. The presiding elder spoke most complimentarily of the work accomplished by Prof. Lamb.
CROWDS AT LAFAYETTE.
All records for attendance at the Lafayette Theatre during the summer months are being broken and Messr Morganstern and Walton have every reason to believe that the house will prosper under their management. On July 4, regarded as one of the most barren financial dates on the theatrical calendar, many were turned away in the evening, as the fire laws prohibited more people from standing. Country store on Tuesday and Saturday evenings continue to excite more than usual interest, and amateur night (Wednesday) is now making a strong bid for popular favor.
Ora Criswell is making the biggest individual hit ever scored at the Lafayette. Her turn was so enthusiastically received the second half of last week that she was held over for all of this

e Week of July 13th.
week. Miss Criswell is doing one of the funniest, if not the funniest, monologues ever done by a colored comedienne, and her excellent work is a topic for animated conversation among Harlem theatregoers.
Harrison Stewart is back at the Lafayette Theatre in a humorous sketch, "My Landlady," and is being ably assisted by Charles Gilpin, Blanche Deas and Viola Stewart, "My Landlady" is rich in laughs, and the quartet easily succeeds, in putting the audiences in good humor.
The Bruces experienced no difficulty in holding their own, the dancing of the male member of the team on roller skates being heartily applauded at every performance.
The Gilden Sisters, singers and dancers, the Jefferson Four and Claude Austin, juggler, were well received.
Lulu Coates and Company and Ora Criswell were the strongest contenders for applause at the Lafayette the second half of last week. Miss Coates' act has one of the best dancing two turns in vaudeville and she and her two male partners always make good. The act has a strong, whirlwind finish.
The Rosebud Quartet, Tascott, ragtime singer, the Marvelous Mells and Collins & Manning played a prominent part in making the bill an even and entertaining one.
A big benefit will be held at the Lafayette Friday, matinee and evening, in aid of the fresh air fund, conducted under the auspices of the Urban League. A large audience is expected at each performance.
Prof. "Lige" Crosse of St. Louis is now violinist at the Lafayette Theatre. For a number of years Prof. Crosse has enjoyed a reputation as a violinist of ability in the Middle West.

AN UP-TO-DATE TAILOR.
Lucius C. Jones, tailor, 431 Lenox avenue, is making a speciality of high class theatrical clothes. His latest creations, oxford gray coats, black and white striped trousers, will be worn next week at the Lafayette Theatre, by the team of Fiddler and Shelton.
Mr. Jones was five years with Tarasco & Co, on Fifth avenue, and eight years at the head of his own establishment, 146 West 53d street. Following the movement of colored people to Harlem Mr. Jones moved uptown to be nearer his patrons. He is now receiving his old customers and many new ones in his large and commodious shop at 431 Lenox avenue.
Thirteen years in the tailoring business in New York City enables Mr. Jones, to give to wearers of his clothes an air of distinction and refinement other tailors try to approach by means of gaudy trimmings, fancy pockets, extrafe style and cut. Dressers who are particular about their clothes will be interested in his output which for smartness of appearance, beauty of finish, workmanship, style and design are unsurpassed.
Mr. Jones enjoys the patronage of many well known people of New York. A recent order, was filled for three cutaway suits worn at the wedding of the daughter of Dr. Yorke Russell.
Royals Even Series With Lincolnns.
The Lincoln-Glants journeyed over to Wallace's Ridgwood grounds, Brooklyn, and played a double header on the Fourth of July with the Royals. The Royals won both games, thus evening up the series between the two clubs to four games each. Sykes and Gatewood were on the mound for the Lincoln in the first game, being opposed by Dismukes, while in the second game it was a battle royal between Williams and Harvey, in which Harvey had a shade-best of it. The Lincolnins only got three hits and no runs off Harvey, while the Royals got four hits and one run. The Lincolnins had three errors chalked up against them; however, while only one bobble was committed by the Royals.

SUNDAY BALL GAMES.
Lincoln and Royals Spit Even.
The double defeat handed the Lincoln Glants by the Royal Glants Saturday at the Ridgwood grounds, Brooklyn, made the Harlem aggregation work the harder for the two games played on Sunday at the Olympic Field, Manhattan. But the best the Lincoln Glants could do is break 10 wins, winning the first game at 5 and losing the second game, 8 to 5. In the first game many errors by the Royals contributed largely to the Lincoln's score. But Redding, who pitched the first game, deserved to win, as he allowed only two hits. The feature of the first game was the fielding of Clark, who made a sensational running catch of a line drive from the bat of Redding. As in the first game, the base running of Webster was a feature in the second. He stole second twice, third once and scored four of his team's eight runs. A large crowd witnessed both games. "The scores:
First Game:
Royal Glants: 3 0 0 1 0 0 1 0 1 = 5 2 7
Lincoln Glants: 3 0 0 1 0 0 4 1 = 10 1 1

Lincoln Stars Continue to Win.
The Lincoln Stars continued on their winning way by scoring a double victory at Lenox-Oval Sunday, the crack Ridgwoods, and the Amsterdams being the first victims. In the opening game, of the double header the Lincoln defeated the Amsterdams, 9 to 1, and in the final tussle, Ambrose Hussley, Jr.'s team was trounced, 5 to 1. Thompson was in superb form, pitching splendid ball for the winning aggregation. He fanned nine 'men. The score:

First Emmanuel Church
First Emmanuel Church,
first crowds attended the various
sessions of the church. Pastor Bolden
said that the Apostle Peter is in deliver-
ing the sermon that we call great em-
phasized the truth and the more other
in these words, for neither is there
saltations for neither is there
date of name under heaven that is
given to long ten, wherein we must be
knewed these words, came from his
lips as an explanation of the cure that
brought in the crippled man at the
beautiful gate." The charisuses, the Sadieces and the
rulers had claimed to forever silence
the power of Jesus the Christ, our
lord of lift, when they crucified him.
It was therefore, not only an insult,
but to the Sanhedrin court, this
miracle performed in another name.
rather than Joporalls, might be charged as blasphemy. The exegetement growing out of seeing the lame man, sapling and praising God was adding to the influence of the Apostle's preaching. This also fanned the fires of jealousy in the opposing parties. Peter—seeing the opportunity to make known the truth that God was with them, counted it a privilege to kill them that the Jewish hopes and the aspirations of mankind had reached their climax in the rejected, crucified, dead, buried, but risen, as cended, eternal Lord and King, are not only preaches that all believers may exercise power by using His name, but he illustrates the truth of his sayings by healing the crippled man.
We believe that our Lord had Peter to do this upon this individual as a sign. The man in the sign is crippled humanity at the gate of His Kingdom, Peter and John in the sign are positive believers in whom the Holy Spirit who work in the name of our Lord runs. The opposite part in the sign, the Saints, 'skeptics used agnostics, the Sanhedrin, 'skeptics used intellectus of the world, who seek to arbitrate all questions that affect the social and religious life of men.
We believe with the Apostle that salvation from individual sin, from mealtal derangement, froof national ruln, from worldly corruption and from universal darkness, is to he had through bellowing and working in our Lord Jesus Christ's name. He has substituted a perfect man for the sin of the world and that man is Himself. His love energy in the Holy Spirit by our wills enables us, not only to be saved, but to become children of Jesus Christ and joint heirs with Jesus Christ. He has the glory of His Father, because He did His will. We are partakers of His glory, because we also do His will as seen in Jesus Christ, our Lord, who is with us.
At the conclusion of the sermon, the members of the church, headed by Mrs. Bessie Robinson, unveiled a life-sized picture of the founder and chief pastor of the First Emmanuel Church. A fitting program had been arranged and the speakers were as follows: George Hinton, who represented the trustees; Mrs. Mme.

Carrington, the Literary Society; Mr. Wm. Townsend, church clerk; Miss Maud Holloway, the Morning Glory Circle, and Mrs. S. M. C. Jackson, who read an original poem, the choir.
