PASTOR HINTS AT DOUBLE CROSS IN CHURCH TRANSACTION
Rev. C. P. Dixon, "Black Billy Sunday," Declares Evil Doers Want To Expel Him From Newport News, His Home.
ARRESTED IN COMPANY
WITH 2 YOUNG WOMEN
(Special to Norfolk Journal and Guild.)
Newport News, Va.—The evil doers of this city want to discredit me, because I am exposing their works and driving them out of business” declared Rev. C. P. Dixon, known as “Black Billy Sunday,” in the Journal and Guide, regarding his arrest by a Newport News policeman while he was leaving his tabernacle in company with two young women at 12:30 a.m. on the night of July 8. Explaining his presence at the bar, he said he was our Rev. Dixon said he and three of his officers were detained there making some repairs, getting the building ready for Sunday services. When he left the tabernacle he met the two women, and asked them why they were out so late. They replied, he said, that they were not aware of the lateness of the hour, whereupon he started out to accompany them home, when he was approached and placed under arrest. Of the case the charges preferred against the minister were dismissed.
AT WAR WITH UNDERWORLD
Rev. Dixon declared emphatically that his arrest was inspired by a desire on the part of the underworld of his city to discredit him and drive him out of town. Since his residence here he has been the incarnation of too many institutions and other forms of Vice, and has necessarily made some enemies. An amusing incident occurred on the same day Dr. Dixon declared he was "framed up." A colored man approached the license bureau and asked him to operate a dance hall, telling the clerk that he was "going to make a lot of money now," because "Black Billy Sunday," was going away from the city. "He has knocked the bottom out of my business," said the applanner. "He was not aware however, that Dr. Dixon has no idea of leaving town.
At the trial Dr. Dixon was entirely exonorated, and the citizens generally believe that he is a victim of persecution.

Washington, D. C.,—Police Judge Hardison, dismissed a charge of assault preferred against George Brown, colored, by Policeman Raymond D. Carroll when Brown exhibited, a bruised head showing that the policeman had struck him with a blackjack after invading the colored man's home in search of a woman.

Brown and that man were arrested. He charged, was struck by officer Allen, he used the crowbar in defense of his home. A woman whom the officers sought was not in the home's apartment, having inwarded an adjoining room, and the officers picked the wrong dwelling. Brown proved to be a peaceful, law-abiding citizen, and said that when the policewoman came along, and not only violated the law by breaking in, and he felt justified in using any measures to repel the advance.
After hearing both sides of the case, Judge Addison dismissed the charges against Brown, and gave the colonel a reprimand for entering the colored man's home without a warrant.

VICIOUS CAMPAIGN
SLOGAN IS LOSING
ITS PULLING POWER
Negro Bugaboo Raised By Democrat Came Near Proving A Boomerang. Failed To Stir The Masses As Usuar.
DEMOCRATIC EDITOR
CONDEMS OLD PRACTICE
Elizabeth City, N. C.—That white people are grown tired of the "Negro Bugaboo," as a campaign issue was courageously stated in an editorial in The Independent of July 7th, published in this city by Editor W. O. Saunders, a fearless and outspoken advocate of democracy.
In the recent campaign for the office of Solicitor of the First Judicial District there was a warm contest between Attorney Walter L. Small and Edenton, both men of brilliant attainments. Toward the latter days of the campaign which closed with the primary on July first, it appeared that Mr. Leary was going to win the nomination, and friends of Mr. Small newspapers stating that Richard Lee, a colored citizen of Edenton had organized a club of 180 Negro voters in Edenton and Chowan county which would throw its strength in the white collar and announced that Mr. Small did not want any Negro votes. It was evidently believed that such a statement would stampade the election for Mr. Small, but it had, according to The independent, the effect of almost deceived newspapers' editorial in full:
A COSTLY MISTAKE
"The friends of Waltier L. S. small must now see that they made a serious blunder when they sought to gain votes for Mr. Small and discredit his opponent Herbert Leary by raising the old cry of "nigger" on the eve of the election of an advertisement in this newspaper per charging that Dick Lee, a Negro leader of Edenton had organized 180 Negro votes in Edenton and Chowan County to vote for Herbert Leary, may have gained a few votes for Mr. Small, but it lost more votes than it gained. He was arousing Mr. Leary's friends through the district and bestirring them to double their efforts in behalf of their candidate. Enraged by the "Negro" charge, Leary men scoured the district in automobiles, branding it "an insult to the pervalued powers of autocrats, to be deterred by Mr. Smith was resorting to unfair methods to gain the nomination.
"The truth is, Walter Small did not insert that advertisement in this newspaper last week. The advertisement was inserted by certain of his friends in his absence from the city because he was not going to press only as it was going to press. The statement contained in the advertisement was believed to be true and at least one Edentonian is responsible for the statement that Dick Lee had organized Negro voters for Mr. McCormick. The statement would not have justified its publication. The number of enfranchised Negroes in these Northcarlina North Carolina counties today is negligible and no one has any cause to be afraid of the Negro vote, especially in a Democratic primary. But even enfranchised Negro has a right to vote and vote for whom he pleases.
"Themistakake that was made by Mr. Small's friends should be a lesson to other candidates in other campaigns. The people generally are tired of the stumped everyone some politician cries," white is black." And this much also is true: it is enough to deny the Negro, the right to vote and to tax him without representation; having done to him he should be let alone."
Merriden, Miss.—The nine year old son of P. L. Quin' shot and killed his stepmother last week because, he said, she threatened to cut up his clothes if he had not finished some washing by the time she came home. The boy was arrested and later released in the custody of neighbors, who promised to care for him until some disposition is made of the case.
Didn't Like The Idea Of An Appeal From His Decision. Wanted To Know "What For."
Chabourne, N. C.-An unusual incident took place in the Mayor's Court here when that official, who was trying a drunk and disorderly case descended from the bench long enough to deliver a punch on the jaw of the lawyer representing the defender at the bar. Mayor L. Roy Bailey had heard the evidence, and passed sentence upon the defender, the lawyer, and the mayor. The Mayor asked on what grounds and the lawyer replied that it was not necessary for him to state his reasons, as he would them in court later. At this the Mayor became incensed and deliberately rose from the judge's bench and gave the judge a blow. The mayor started to mix matters when spectators separated them. Friends on both sides are enduring to get the men to make friends and settle the matter amicably.

University Student Kills For Whiskey
Athens, Ga—Bennie White, colored, was shot and killed here last week by Briggs Carson, a student at the University of Georgia summer school. It is allied that Carson and a number of students gave White money to buy whiskey for them on a Saturday night and when White did not buy, he went to the school for him Sunday-morning, meeting him on the road coming from the direction of his home. It is stated that when White saw them coming he ran, whereupon Carson drew his revolver and fired at him. It is claimed that Carson maintains that he only shot to frighten White. Carson is being held
Someone who did not have the courage to sign his name sent a letter to the Chicago Defender asking that paper to bring to the attention of the N.C. G.P. the case of Mr. Vaughan, a Navy lieutenant murdered a few weeks ago, while in the discharge of his duty, by a white officer of the same rank. In concluding, his letter the writer said: "The colored people are afraid here and the journal and Guide is afraid; just ask to assist it to aid the Southern people."
All of which we brand unqualifiedly as a wilful, malicious and cowardly lie. The same liar who sent that slander to the Defender and was too cowardly to sign his own name to it, is invited now to invulge his name in order that he may be made to retract. Editor Journal and Guide.
FIRST FOOD SHOW A BIG SUCCESS; CROWDS ATTEND
Exhibitors, Demonstrators And Visitors Express Satisfaction over The Project. Booth Attractiveness A Feature.
WELL PROMOTED, ABLY DIRECTED, IS PRAISE
The Food Show held at the auditorium this week under the auspices of the Norfolk Journal and Guide was a great success in every particular. In fact the success of the affair surpassed the best hopes of the promoters. There was no lack of crowds on inimitable exhibitors, exhibitors and demonstrators all expressed complete satisfaction over the success of the project. A big good natured crowd, a pleasing lot of demonstrators with a plenty of dainties to tickle the palate really made a jolly occasion. There were twenty exhibitors altogether, as many as could be placed in the auditorium, using a 10 x 10 booth for each one. Show was in reality a home economics demonstration. Each exhibitor had a demonstrator on hand to show the visitors how to prepare and make the most economical use of their products.
SNOWDRIFT-WESSON OIL
Mr. Edward G. Hensley, sales representative of the Southern Cotton Oil Company, in an interview with a Journal and Guide reporter, stated he was the author of the Food Show and Domestic Science demonstration. Incidentally Mr. Hensley paid a high tribute to the publishers of the Journal and Guide,—complimenting the paper on its success in the food show. The attendance at the Food Show and Demonstration was also commented upon; the decorum of the attendance being perfect, and the ability as an organizing genius of Mr. Hensley to handle all details being worthy of more than unqual merit.
The Booth of SNOWDRIFT-WESSON oil has elicited great interest, and the splendid advertising material of the Southern Cotton Oil Company is appealing to the aesthetic sense of the great crowds who nightly throng the Food Show.
The Journal and Guide is recipient of unstinted praise for the publicity given the various products, and condone on the complete success of the show.
The SNOWDRIFT-WESSON OIL Booth is staging a cake baking contest, open to all contestants, and handsome prize will be awarded the winner, prize prizes, gift offering, and a large can of Wesson Oil. Names of the winners will be announced in our next issue.

PRINCIPAL IN POISON DEATH CASE HITS BACK
PRINCIPAL IN POISON DEATH CASE HITS BACK
Says Christian Community Has Neglected Women Of Vice District. Accuses Christians Of Living In Glass Houses.
Smarting under the attention drawn to her by the recent vice exposures following the death of two young women immediately after a booze party staged at her home, Mra. Annie Johnson, who lives at 813 Wide street, has written a letter to the Journal and Guide, which is in the nature of a challenge to her accusers and to the whole Christian community.
IN-DISTANT Moop
"Let him that that without sln cast
atone," is the spirit of hor
challenge.
"Let our so-called Christian colored people," she writes, "who have so much religion, and who think so much of themselves, go and talk to those who are so much more than go from house to house and talk about them, condemning them to eternal degradation."
Evidently Mrs. Johnson does not think that the Christian community is so absorbed from home for the condition of the city that the immoral practices in certain districts of the city. She says: "Some of our own people, who call themselves so good are the ones that keep these girls down. They take advantage of their helplessness. Many of these girls are from good homes. As for myself, I am from a decent and respectable family and I don't think that I am any worse than my accusers."
WANTED TO SHIELD MADIN
Mrs. Johnson calls attention to the fact that the charges against her in connection with the celebrated poison death cases were dismissed at the hearing in police court. And she says that she would not have been locked up at all, but she "didn't want to get the whole matter," as God would have it," she says, "one of the girls told the truth about the whole matter," which exonerated her from any blame for their deaths. VICTIM OF CURUMMATES SHE SAYS
"Why condemn me?" she asks. "I have never been seen engaged in any immoral conduct on the streets. It is not my business. But the same thing could have happened at a hundred homes just like mine, in all parts of the city. But that is the way of the world, if these so-called Christian people think you are down they will try to help you, instead of helping you to get up."
"LOT OF GLASS HOUSES"
"I'll tell you why there is so much vice," says Mrs. Johnson; "it is because so many of your Christian people live in glass houses. They haven't the courage to do the right thing by these unfortunate girls, because they have contributed so much to their downfall."
"But God loves me, and He loves us all," she declared in her letter, "and God teaches us to love one another."
"There are so many that go to church and pray, then go to Wide street and other places seeking what they can find in the way of liquor and women."
Meanwhile "the law" is keeping a watchful eye on the up-town vice situation, and there may be something doing soon that will startle the town.
The case of Everett. Short, the patrolman of the navy yard who shot and killed a fellow patrolman, F. Jennings Vaughan, of Borkley Ward several weeks ago was continued by U. S. Commissioner Brinkley when he was called in to investigate the case. The case is now scheduled to be heard on July 18.
As Mr. Vaughan was very popular and his quiet and easy manner well known, the developments in this case are being followed with unusual interest by the citizens of Borkley.
SAYS CHURCH SALE WAS PREARRANGED PLANS MISCARRIED
Thought C. M. E. Connection Would Acquire The Property At Auction Price. Trustees Act Surprises Congregation.
St. Luke C. M. E. Church may be sold to another congregation in the near future if the former owners do not act quickly. Already several prospective purchasers have looked over the property besides several business men have interviewed the present holders as to what disposition would be made of it. At present, in inclining the holders to give the former congregation ample opportunity to decide if they will make efforts to redeem their church, provided of course they are not too long, in reaching a decision. The recent purchasers does not intend to hold the property an unreasonable length of time, it is said, as a losing proposition; especially as the opportunity to resell it at a figure will protect his interest is open to him.
Committee Visits Church
Would Sell For $23,000
The Bishop was willing that the church go to sale at auction for the amount of the first mortgage as a loan of the creditor. The amount of the creditor trustees to this was that it would leave their interests out of consideration except to the ex-creditor and second mortgage which the Bishop promised to execute in their favor.
It is claimed that the movement to reorganize the church under the name of St. Paul C. M. E. was instituted before the sale was held, the church being among the members for their signatures as members of the new St. Paul church. Those signing wore to be members of St. Paul and those not signing would have to seek another connection, and thought that the connection of this would have been that when St. Luke was put up for sale it would have been purchased by the new St. Paul congregation thus leaving unsecured papers up to the endorsers. The valuable $3,300 pipe organ which was also included in the list to be sold but the auctioner refused to allow it on account of the prior lien of the manufacturer. Action was brought in Judge G. G. Moore against three of the trustees, Mr. Walter Smith, Mr. Geo. W. Foreman and Mr. W. T. Blount by J. W. Smith Electrical Co., for recovery on a note endorsed by them as trustees in favor of St. Luke but the Judge held that the signature have to be brought against all of the trustees.
Bought To Save his Interest.
Mr. Gordon maintains that he bought the property with no mercury intent but simply to save his interests. He states that the congregationate the building. This course was taken of their own choosing. Services are being held there every Sunday by those remaining to the old church. Rex Lawley Jones is the owner for them last Sunday morning and, reenacted G. W. Brown at night. The St. Paul's are worshipping in Booker T. Washington High School where they are negotiating, for the purchase of the Jewish Synagogue on Cumberland street.

He calmly entered home.

"Skirts will come down this winter," says a fashion magazine. If that has reference to length rather than price we object.
The "community spirit" in Norfolk is coming back. It is essential to any substantial growth or achievement. Co-operation is the keynote of success. We can only have and maintain "community spirit" by practicing clean business, civic and religious ethics. Grafters, usurers and seekers after self-aggrandizement take notice. Good-will is the basis of progress.
Friend James M. Harrison writes in expressing the hope that the "tireless efforts" of THE JOURNAL AND GROUP have given the colored people of Norfolk "creditable, fearless" paper to be "fully appreciated by and the "race in general." If the growth of circulation is any indication that the people respect and want this newspaper, we are getting just the support our good friend wishes for us, for our sales have increased in Norfolk during the past four weeks at the rate of five hundred a week.
GIVE US TIME, BROTHER
A reader of THE JOURNAL AND GUIDE writes to say that he was disappointed at the Food Show because the exhibitors were white. Well, that just shows that the white brother has a shade on the colored brother when it comes to recognizing the value of advertising. With a few exceptions colored business men, whether grocers or bankers don't believe in advertising. We begged and implored the biggest colored business enterprise in town to take a booth in the show, and we cut the price of the booth 50 per cent as an inducement, but there was nothing doing. They just can't see it, brother, that's all. With them, advertising is money thrown away. The average colored business man thinks you ought to patronize him because he is a colored man, which is damphol philosophy.
And then food shows are participated in by manufacturers of food products. It happens that there are no colored manufacturers of food products, except ice cream, which is some more information for our friend. There will be some, later on, no doubt, and when there are we will try to drag them into the Food Show. We made it as colored as we could. All the demonstrators and workers in the show were colored. And there were several booths where colored ladies dispensed delicious cakes, pies, crullers, etc., etc., of their own baking. We are trying, brother Smith, to stimulate this "pride of race" you spoke about, but in order to make something out of a fellow you have got to have his co-operation.
AN ENGLISHMAN FROM AFRICA
A young Englishman with a German name, Morris Geisler, came into Ellis Island last week from Capetown, South Africa, and was denied entrance to the country, because the quote of Africa for July, which was 25, under the immigration laws, had been exhausted. He was very important, of course, but that did not help any, even though he was a rich man. He had to stay out. He was born in Capetown of English parents. He wailed as follows:
"If they'd only show some discrimination, some consideration for an Englishman. The term 'African' is deceived general, don't you know? There are South Africans, Northern Africans, East Africans, French Africans and German Africans. But under your immigration laws an Englishman with a long line of English ancestors is classed the same as a Kaffir, the common Negro laborer of Africa."
NORTHERN SYMPATHY AND SUPPORT RESENTED
When the Bishops, Council of the African Methodist Episcopal Church was in session in New York, recently Commissioner Groyer H. Whalen, as the personal representative of the Mayor, welcomed the Bishops to the city, and told them of some of the favors shown Afro-Americans by the Mayor and his administration. Mr. Ferdinand Q. Morton, who happens to be "a gentleman of color," and who holds the high office of Commissioner of the Civil Service, having been promoted from the office of Assistant District Attorney by the Tammany Mayor, and other speakers of our group, spoke of Mayor Hylan as Commissioner Whalen did.
Some of the Bishops appear to have been highly offended by the efforts of the speakers to show how well off Afro-Americans are in New York, and how well they are treated by Mayor Hylan. Bishop W. A. Fountain, of Atlanta, Georgia, resented the statements of the speakers and declared that the Mayor's representative had not shown the proper courtesy by leaving before he received the answer to his address, and that New Yorkers may boast all they cared to but that the "Negro in this and other Northern cities is no better off in one part of the country than in any other." There is so much untruth in. Bishop Fountain's viewpoint that it is charitable to assume that he was speaking to the white people of Atlanta and hoped that the Atlanta Constitution would report him in full, so that they might know how he felt about it. Bishop W. D. Chappelle, of Columbia B.C., resented the plea that the Negroes of New York be urged to do something for the poor Negroes of the South. The Bishop is reported to have finished his remarks by declaring that:
"Negroes in South Carolina did not need such assistance, and that there was no necessity for the Negroes of New York to cry for those who lived in the Southern States. He emphasized the statement that he was tired of hearing such sentiments as had been expressed in the addresses made by the New Yorkers who preceded him."
The readers of THE JOURNAL AND GUIDE, we are sure, will be interested in "the tempest in a teapot." We leave them free to draw their own conclusions, with the observation, however, that both Bishop Fountain and Bishop Chappelle would have gained more by silence than by voicing what they did say. It sounds as if they were both talking for home consumption and not for the common good of the race.
"NO GROUP DOMINATION," SAYS PRESIDENT HARDING
We have learned through long and sad experience that, in the Administration of the Government—local, State and Federal, "It depends upon whose ox is gored," the color of the ox being of the greatest importance, whether he be white or black and yellow.
For fully fifty years Afro-Americans have been lynched and burned and hounded from place to place, without due process of law, so that after a while and for a long time past such things have become so common as to excite only a passing interest in the communities immediately concerned. A news item, an occasional big headline, seldom an editorial, and the readers of the newspapers in the big news associations, get all they must expect of some of the worst and most brutal crimes ever committed in any country. The mob committed the crimes, public opinion sustained the mob, and the officers of the law turned their faces the other way and feigned ignorance. But the Nation has been held responsible by the Higher Judge of the Higher Law, and has had to pay as we have gone along and will have to pay. So much is written in The Book.
When the mobocrats began to murder, mutilate and destroy the property of white persons, as it began to do it some decade ago, and continue to do it with increasing numbers and violence to the present time, State and Federal officials and the responsible newspapers of the country began to regard mob lawlessness from another and a radically different viewpoint, and to cry aloud against it. Very good. It is an unelastic and inexorable law of the spirit that you can't hold black and yellow life cheaply without cheapening white life.
In his Independence address at Marion, his home town, President Harding declared that, "Government cannot tolerate any class or group domination through force," and General Pershing, speaking from the same platform, denounced in unmeasured terms the prevalence of mob violence, declaring that "we must stand up for prompt enforcement of the law or concede that free government is a failure." He went no far as to say that mob violence must be crushed "through the intervention of the Federal authority wherever necessary." President Harding and General Pershing both had in their mind's eye the recent murder of some twenty strike-breaking coal miners, and the mutilation of their dead bodies, at Hervin, Fillmore, and their reports of outrages upon the life and property
of white persons reported every day in the newspapers in widely separated States, from the Everglades of Florida to "where rolls the Oregon." There can be no proper development of the resources of the Nation where no proper protection for life and property exists in law and legal process; race and color having little to do with the matter, whether the victims be white or black and yellow or high brown. The business man the financier, the farmer, the laborer, are all of them timid and inoffeive in their endeavors if they have the feeling of insecurity in their lives and property. This fact should be very obvious to every mobocrat but it appears not to be.

WHERE DOES THE MOON

Letters From The People
COMMENDS, JOURNAL AND
GUIDE
Editor Journal and Guide;
Dear Sir: I wish to take this occasion to extend you my congratulations for the fine issue of this week's Journal and Guide.
I wish to its steady growth with personal pride, and realizing as I do, the thorny paths Negro journals tread, it is fortunate that we have such a creditable, fearless paper in our midst which has always stood for the best in everything pertaining to our interests here.
My dear friend will believe me when I say that I hope your tireless efforts may be fully appreciated by the colored people in Norfolk, and the race in general.
Yours very truly,
J. M. HARRISON.

Takes A Crack. At Food Show,
Jitney And Taxi Fares, Vice Conditions, Ete.
Editor Journal and Guide:
Sir: The Food Show opened in all of its beauty Monday night, but as all of the exhibitors were white it failed to inspire us with the progress of the race in the preparation and use of pure foods.
Of course, we know that the firms represented, at the Show are among us, but let's strive to help each other. Invite the colored grocers, bakers, cooks, chefs, and cream manufacturers, butchers, etc., to display their wares in the Food Show, then we will have something to brag about. Ask mother or grandmother to display some of those good foods we made, and we justly make Virginia famons—and some of those delicious hot rods that only our mothers can make. In fact let's start to build up real pride of race. That will stop us from trying to get white, but always
feeling proud of what God has made us.
A stranger in our town asked the auto fare to Bailey's Park. I say to the stranger, don't ask the Norfolk public and patrons of Bailey's Park; they don't know. I can truthfully say that the public can only give you money. But the drivers of for hire cars have several prices. For instance, if you go down in a Hudson 25c; Hudson and Ford 35c; Cadillac and Packard 60c; yet they all travel the same distance. The white public goes to Wichita, the blue public goes to Wichita, or seven miles, for 25c, but we must pay 60c to go to Bailey's Park, a distance of 4½ miles. Its high time the management of Bailey's Park took this matter up with the auto drivers for the protection of the public, as one dissatisfied patron may cause the run of any enterprise. If these gouging auto drivers cannot meet the public on a square deal, then put on more jitneys.
The Journal and Guide is to be commended for exposing the Red Light district up-town in the vicinity of Highland avenue and Wide street. The Red Light district is one of good people of Norfolk are with you. Give an eye to Nicholson, Henry, Calvert, Chapel, Star and other streets. Go after the Bootleggers—you can do that often end in drunken brawls and murder. Get the churches to rid themselves of so-called Christians, who protect prostitution, bootlegging, gambling and other dreadful vices. JAMES E. SMITH. Norfolk, Va.
ASK MR. ASHBURNER
Editor Journal and Guide:
Sir: Some months ago the city started paving Lexington street. The process of tearing up which is preliminary to all paving work was completed and there is where the work ended. I wonder what is causing this problem. I wonder other paving projects are going on in various other parts of the city; and it seems to me that the suspension of work on Lexington street could not be due to lack of labor or material. It is a tremendous inconvenience to residents of this street.

Pastor Defends Congregation
Rev. Taylor in a statement handed to the press this week sets forth at length his position in the present crisis of the church.
Pastor's Statement
"I am fully persuaded that duty to God and to my fellow-workers in: the common experience of the present pastor, in the crisis of this church's experiences to speak publicly as to my place in this matter."
The question to be given is the fact that I was appointed to this charge, to fill out the unexpired term of Rew. L., Rosen and Husser, and these these were created. The Bishop appointing me was Bishop R. S. Williams, of Augusta, Ga.
During the appointment, the Bishop was governed by information given to him that the work was in a flourishing state, and assured me that it would, provide a kind of spiritual encouragement who would apply, bless me energetically.

The Greatest Reduction Since the War on Fine Tailoring
requests coming from the board of trustees to secure aid from the connection Board such requests could not be legal, according to the law if the church, without the pastor endorsing them, as pastor of the church, under the present conditions of affairs, I would be untrue to the congregation and probably not made known the conditions to the Bible (the church would do) who confessed frankly, that this impression was that the property had already been transferred to the connection and further been transferred to the majority of the members had the same impression. But finding it not transferred, he insisted he not to have the congregation to request assistance to the connection, if they would do so voluntarily. This I started not to do, but the mean time there were rumors and even revelations that the church was going to be sold.
"The instructions given by the Bishop were also explained to the gentleman holding the sword, the equally conscientious so far as his interest was concerned, so insistent for his life, his desire of trusts were already made in the St. Luke, C. M. E. church, Church no. 24, Church no. 25 as the connection involved, he recorded in its name. He thought it the better thing to do, because it would afford opportunity to be legally helped aside from the responsibility of the faithful ones of the congregation.
Trustees Refused to Sign Transfer
"The transfer papers were prepared, a majority of the members signed, but only a minority of the trustees to sign. hindered its legal transfer, because the property was in the former church and their recollection by the G. M. E Church had no official response. the property was in their hands as trustees, and the property was corded. In the face of a refusal to transfer the property a demand was made by members of the Board to put the property up for sale."
Friendly Sale Ordered
"Therefore seeing no way to get help, and no way to protect the membership from harm, I am sentimentally to our General Conference Lounge, Louis J. Bishops, the matter before the Board of Bishops, and plead with them to save the situation for the congregation. I congratulate the congregation decided to have two or three bishops to come to Norfolk and hold an advisory conference here with some of the leading Bishops. "This was done and at this conference it was decided that in order to give the congregation and connection a clear title, to let the congregation be friendly, to give friendly sale means the person whose property or personal interest is at stake, to be taken back again, by giving it back. This is the sale. The Bishops had arranged everything, and offered a fair deal, but for some cause, the church was bought by one of the trustees. "It is a strange affair, for the church, it is open for public consideration, because the church is people and by the people and of the people."

struggle have put much of their hard earnings into the funds of the church and to see it as it did, is heart breaking to them.
it go as it did, is heart breaking to them. The public should know that the congregation is not at fault. They enthralled their congregation, but elected, by the people to take care of their interests.
"Their confidence was placed upon them to act as their 'Big Brother' and to safety satisfaction that all things mitigating word safely considered and wisely thought out. Ne man would place matters in the hands of any one if in the beginning he thought out how to make the 'offices' to make any step, forward must have the confidence of the members, such confidence is a sacred trust, and when it disappears it not only affects public notice but breaks the heart of those who love there.
"I fail to see where anything but the deep heart-felt sympathy, should be shown to those people by the city of Norfolk. They are not so blinded by the love they loved not seeing, but, trusting that their welfare was, safety, cared for. They voted for three repairs to be made; the request of pastor and ritee which makes them more faithful to God, must be accepted or what has happened. The members need to be commended for their loyalty rather than to be criticized. I fail to see any place where a pastor is a god of Justice and Judgment at the head of "His Church and will make all to reap what they sow."
Dr. Chas. S. Morris and daughter, Miss R. Morris spoke in Cleveland, Ohio last Friday. She is a god of Justice and Judgment in Canada, to engage in a series of meetings for Rev. J. Oswald Smith. Ms. Morris will visit Oberlin, Columbus, Toledo, Ohio in interest of Boston Institute.

Today recalls and memories
Of our love ones laid out best;
And she who number him

Dear is the grave where he has laid,
Sweet is the memory which never

Heart of my life is buried there,
when I was born, when I loved one

FAIR MANAGERS TO JOIN B. LEAGUE
Organize To Promote Better Business Relation And To Avoid Conflicting Dates,
Dr. J. H. Love, secretary of the North Carolina Negro State Fair; Henry Hartman of the Fairfax, (Va.). Fair and Hairy of the Norfolk (Va.) Colored Fair; and a number of other officials of the many Negro fairs, horse shows and celebrations of the country, have launched a movement to organize a subsidized fair at the Nebraska Men's Fair, at the convention of that organization to be held in Norfolk, Va., on August 16, 17, and 18.
It is the purpose of the new organization to make colored fairs a real asset. It is the purpose of these institutions, to the people by aggressively going after more and better exhibits and attractions.
One of the purposes is to better educate the public as to the great needs of the fair to community and national life.
Other announced objects are the elimination of conflicting dates for fairs and shows in the same neighborhood, the arrangements for joint booking of suitable attractions such as the fair, the fair contracting for a single date, the discussion and consideration of advertising and publicity methods common to such enterprises and their adoption, their use and the exchange of ideas, observations and experiences so that all may profit by the success of the fair. The interests of better and more economical operation of all fairs. Attracting to Negro fairs the better types of Negro novelty acts and drawing cards and the booking of Negro concessioners and shows when advisable, and the improvement of the fair. The value of all attractions submitted without regard to the race owners. The securing of more exhibits representative of the manufacturing and commercial interests of the race, more of the inventions of Negroes by whomsew manufactured. These because they stimulate and encourage fair, assist progress and are profitable.
The securing of more nationally advertised household equipment and farm machinery, so that by the demonstrations at fairs the people may be kept informed as to the modern methods and acquainted with the progress of the industry. The National Negro Press Association that meets in co-ordination with the league has promised its support. The Norfolk Business Committee has already assured the cooperation of local business men in the preliminary work and the care of attention of interested persons may address J. A. Jackson at the New York office of The Billboard.

DIES ON GALLOWS AFTER ESCAPING MOB
Fate Seemed To Decree Man's Punishment Unjust. Prosecuting Attorney Tries To Save Him.
Jwinton, Ga., July—Protesting his innocence to the last, James Denson, aged 21 years, charged, with assaulting an aged white woman, paid the death penalty on the gallows at 10:20 the today. The man, with a belief of the young man, pointing torches here made a strong fight in out that "all the breaks in connection with the case have been in favor of Denson as though the Almighty had some influence in the case."
Denson is the man who escaped from the mob and stormed the jail and took him from the officers bent on lynching him. The driver of the car carrying the mob ran into another car and threw out the occupants, including Denson, who had a rope about his neck. All of the mob men were injured and the men made his escape after cutting the rope from his neck.
"Providence," again seemed to take a hand when Denson was finally captured, the officers found him in a swamp-playing which fierce blooded sounds and bodies were relatives of the aged white woman are said to have rushed him to safe keeping to escape the mob which was bent on lynching him. To cap the climax, the gallows which was erected for the purpose of hanging Denson, from a building and working hard to be called to make repairs on it before it could be used. The storm seemed to be of no special fury in any other section.

S. Carter quality and workmanship in every garment.

The automobile party commanded Hubert to get down out of the buggy and, help them to get their car out of the buggy, the buggy the buggy. The buggy arose during which one of the party of whites struck Mrs. Hubert with a spade. Hubert immediately opened fire in defense of his wife, killing one of the party and wounding another.

ties Bureau, of New York, an organ-
ization which properly interests itself
in the civil rights of colored people
and Mr. B. H. Clark, governor of Bt.

in-a controversy over the treatment
accorded two colored editors of the
Islands.
These two’editors were arrested re-
cently and imprisoned briefly on
charges of sentene of court growing

The governor answered the Bu-

of the press do not extend to the co-
Jonial possessions. He cited as proof
the fact that the United States Su-
preme Court had held that trial by
jury might be denied a citizen of a
‘U.S. colonial possession. FE
