BRUCE "GRIT" The learned critics and book reviewers on some of the metropolitan papers, who know a good many things that are not exactly so, have strenuously objected to Dr. W. E. B. Du Bois' characterization of Aesop in his book "The Negro" as an African. There are some books about Africa and the Africans which a good many of these ready reviewers and critics have not read and which, if they would read them in some leisure moment, would enable them to speak and write more convincingly about Africa and its people. These same critics and book reviewers go up in the air whenever any one asserts that Alexander Hamilton, Washington's secretary of the treasury, was a man with a large strain of Negro blood—the son of a quadron mother and a white father. None of his biographers, for obvious reasons, have gone into this phase of his history. But in the island of Nevis, J. W. I., where Hamilton was born, the tradition will not down. All of the early writers contemporaneous with Aesop who have written about him describe him either as a "dark" or "black" man and repulsive in his personal appearance, with woolly hair and "pendant lips," etc. One of the Arabian poets, who must have seen him at some time or other or got a pretty good description of him from some one who had met him, speaks of him thus, "Brimful of wisdom; black as night." Now, whoever a white man "black as night," except he was a member of the burnt cork fraternity, a coal miner or a fireman, where soft coal is used? In the thirty-first chapter of the Koran, which is entitled Loquan, says the learned Dr. E. W. Blyden. Rodwell supposes that Loquan is the same person whom the Greeks, not knowing his real name, have called Aesop, or Aethiopis. He is celebrated in secular Arabian poetry. Dean Stanley in his "Jewish Church" pays striking tribute to the character of Loquan. "The mandates of Loquan," "The wise maxims of Loquan," are frequent phrases in classic Arabic literature to indicate the wisdom and judgment of the great African. Dr. Du Bois is on safe ground in claiming Aesop as an African, and he is supported in this by writers and historians, some of them contemporaneous with the mighty black, who knew what they were talking about. The testimony of these earlier witnesses is more dependable and valuable than that of moderns, who have acquired the very bad habit of reading history with their prejudices and interpreting it to meet the popular prejudices of their day and generation. How these critics are able to say with so much positiveness that Aesop was not an African, "black as night," doth not appear in the testimony they have adduced. Until it does we must continue to believe the testimony of the writers and historians, some of whom saw Aesop face to face. His blackness and ugility made such an awful impression upon them that they were impelled to describe him in terms which cannot be twisted or distorted to mean other than what they intended—i. e., that he was an ugly, repulsive black, with splay feet, pendent lips, a large abdomen and all the physical characteristics of the African. He certainly was. Press Association Membership Scale. Membership in the National Negro Press association is divided into class 1 and class 2.

E church, St. Louis, has returned to his home after a most interesting trip to New York and other large cities of the east. While in New York Dr. Brooks was kept very busy with matters pertaining to the international Order of Mystic Shriners, which held its annual session in New York the early part of August. He is a member of the order and shows great interest in its work. Dr. Brooks also attended to much important business connected with his denomination and his church. From New York he went to Washington, where he was also warmly received and kept busy. He is one of the most prominent of the many able young ministers of the African Methodist church. His rise and success in the ministry have been almost phenomenal. He is well educated, eloquent and gifted as a preacher, and if one is to judge from his past record it is safe to predict for him the highest honor in the gift of his denomination in the near future. He is a man of courage, fine common sense and energetic to a degree. Dr. Brooks is not only scholarly, but a trained writer. He has traveled extensively in the Holy Land and has put the results of his travel and study in writing. His new book, entitled "Footprints of a Black Man In the Holy Land," has recently come from the press. Dr. Brooks is not only interested in the immediate work of his church and denomination, but in all good movements for the good of the race. He is also much interested in the young people and believes in giving them a chance to be trained along both religious and secular lines. His friends throughout the country are watching his progress with keen interest. GREATER NEW YORK CHURCH UNION CONDEMNS LYNCHING Murder of Will Stanley Arouses Influential Religious Organization. New York. - Ministers of fifteen churches, members of the Baptist Church Union of Greater New York, at its regular meeting for August, adopted the following resolutions condemning mob rule in the south and with special reference to the recent lynching of Vill Stapling Temple, Tex. The resolutions follow: The resources to follow were observed from the Whereas, in the New York daily papers another unlawful, inhuman and fendish crime committed by the white citizens composed of men, women and children in the public squares of Temple, Tex., of the unlawful taking away from the office of the police by the name of Will Stanley, charged by the name of Will Stanley, charged with the murder of the three Grimes children, thereby defeating the ends of the court of justice in its mission and the unlawful taking away from the office of the police, known thereby robbing the prisoner of all the civic rights decreed to him under the constitution of this country; and Whereas, We believe that this and other similar, unlawful and inhuman acts of any people are steps backward in the development of civilization in the age and country; and Whereas, We as law abiding citizens positively and unreservedly condemn crime of whatever nature by whomsoever it may be committed regardless of the nature of the crime, we have looked to our white friends who professed superiority for higher ideals in society and religion, we are pained with regret to say that our people have not considered to conclude our only hope is in God" when we note such unpleasant happenings as this which blot our civilization and places our Christianity into ill rejection or other that it is o' bounden duty to trust and protect the government, to which we have proved our loyalty and fidelity by pouring out our life's blood on our people, and to which we have only that, but in every class of service we have been called upon to render from the time our forefathers landed here until now, and we are as willing now to do so. We have also been called upon like other citizens.

W. Monroe Trotter Speaks For Our Race. Boston. - A few minutes before 8 o'clock on the afternoon of July 5 the veil fell from the $2,000 bronze statue of Wendell Philips in the Public Garden, and a crowd of from 5,000 to 6,000 acclimated with cheers and patriotic song Daniel Chester French's almost speaking memorial of Boston's famous orator and abolitionist As the sun was shining behind rain clouds in the west little John C. Phillips, Jr., the great-grandnephew of Wendell Phillips, the man who declared that if he lived long enough he would make Boston streets too pure to bear the footsteps of a slave, pulsed the cord releasing the mantle which for several weeks had velled the statue. As the folds fell away from the figure of the great abolitionist "Glory, Glory, Hailiejah!" burst from a chorus of colored singers. Fervent was the prayer or Rev Montrose W. Thornton, pastor of the historic Charles Street church and also chairman of the executive committee of the local Equal Rights league branch; sterling and practiced the tribute of the acting mayor, George W. Coleman, a man of Wendell Phillips' principles, as was every speaker. Illuminating and forceful was the life story by Secretary William D. Brigham. Sweet t d inspiring were the singing by the colored singers, led by Dr. Walter O. Taylor and J. Therman Jones, and the music of the brass band of Company L. Sixth regiment of Massachusetts militia. Picturesque and touching was the encomium by the only survivor of the New England abolitionists, Frank B. Sanborn, now eighty-three years old, still active, a coworker with Phillips. Earnest and unqualified was the praise by the spoken man for colored Americans, W. M. rottor. Fired with eloquence born of love was the eulogy of Ireland's friend and friend of all oppressed by Michael J. Jordan, son of O'Connell's and home; tuneful and noble the paean of the poet of the occasion, cousin of Phillips' party leader, beacon, his name, William Lloyd Garrison. Every participant was an emulator of the 'Prophet of Liberty,' Champion of the Slave, while the colored women of the Woman's Relief corps held the colors. The monument, a masterpiece by Daniel Chester Iach, the sculptor, represents the great abolitionist standing at a reading desk, his right hand resting upon the desk, his left out stretched and holding a bit of broken letter. Upon the dark background, above the head and hatae are the words, "Whether In Chains or In Liberty. Liberty Knows Nothing but Victory." On the pedestal, in front, are the words in raised bronze letters: On the reverse side of the background is the quotation from Philips: "I love 'ae, presibly 'ese streets of Bostax, over whose pavements my mother held up tenderly my baby feet, and if God grants me time enough I will make them too pure to bear the footsteps of a slave." The exercises were opened by Mr. William D. Brigham, secretary of the Wendell Phillips Memorial association, who introduced the acting mayor, George W. Coleman, president of the city council. Mr. Coleman then introduced, in turn, four spectators, who presented a verbal panorama of Wendell Phillips' life. William I.

Chicago.—Thousands of people in attendance at the Lincoln jubilee celebration, now in progress in this city, have viewed the splendid exhibit of the National Baptist Publishing board of Nashville, Tenn. The exhibit is in charge of an experienced display man, who is employed constantly at the publishing house. In addition to the exhibit at the Colseum, where the jubilee celebration is in progress, this institution has an additional exhibit at the Eighth Regiment armory, where the national Baptist convention opened its thirty-fifth annual session on Wednesday morning, Sept. 8. One of the most attractive features of the exhibit is the unliness with which it is arranged and installed. It shows a graduation in efficiency in the art preservative, having on display the productions in mechanism and literary art from the smallest postal card to a mammoth leather or morocco bound book, the entire exhibit being the work of members of the race employed in the institution. Spectators have lingered long and admiringly at the skill and mechanical perfection displayed in these articles. Their admiration increases when they are told by the instructor that every one of the vast number of people employed at the Nashville institution came to work without experience at any firm or institution in their particular line of work. The exhibit shows samples of twenty-three different song books, in which, in most cases, the music was written, composed, arranged, printed, bound and sent out by members of the race. Every line of Sunday school requisites and church help needed for the denomination is also shown. In connection with this there is a church supply exhibit, showing that members of the race have actually been taught the art of cabinet making. In the church supply department anything can be made of wood from a collection plate to the most expensive church news, pulpits and pulpit furniture. There is also a complete display of Negro dolls ranging in size from the thinnest twelve inch doll, which is well dressed, to one measuring about three feet in height. Free literature is given those who stop to view the display. It has already been pronounced as the most unique exhibit at the celebration, where it is learned that it will remain until the exposition closes. The governor of Michigan in viewing this exhibit pronounced it the best arranged and most complete it has seen. The Chicago Daily American made special mention of it. ASSOCIATIC BRANCH WORK Local Organization at Portland, Ore. Makes a New Beginning. The Portland (Ore.) branch of the National Association For the Advancement of Colored People is showing signs of encouraging activity. It starts its fall and winter work as a full fledged branch, having received its charter, constitution and bylaws from the headquarters of the national body in New York. At the August meeting of the branch officers for the ensuing year were elected and the various committees appointed. The officers and committees are the following well known and progressive citizens; E. J. Minor, president; Mrs. H. M. Gray, vice president; Mrs. E. D. Cannady, re-elected secretary; E. G. Dickens, treasurer. The executive committee consists of R. D. Luscher, W. B. Brown, Rev. W. W. Howard, for one year; Rev. William Maggett, Dr. J. A. Merriman, F. D. Thomas, for two years; J. W. Stanley, E. D. Cannady, Mac Stanley, for three years. The other committees and members are: Membership committee, Rev. William Maggett, Mrs. E. M. Gray, J. Jones; finance committee, E. J. Minor, E. G. Dickens, W. C. Becton; press committee, Mrs. E. D. Cannady, J. W. Stanley, R. Lloyd Smith; legislative committee, Attorney Arthur I. Moulton, F. D. Thomas, E. D. Cannady, Attorney Guy C. H. Corilis and Attorney George Arthur Brown; education and amusement committee, Dr. Merriman, W. B. Brown and Hugh Harper. Society of Progressive Virginians. The ladies' auxiliary of the Society of the Sons of Virginia in Brooklyn will begin the fall and winter work of the organization with an entertainment and reception on Thursday evening, Sept. 30. The function will be held at Lincoln hall, Waverly and Atlantic avenues. Lincoln hall is owned by Alpha lodge No. 1381, Grand United Order of Odd Fellows. Mrs. Roger Harkless is president of the auxiliary, which has a membership of nearly 200. The society has a good bank account and is free from any financial indebtedness. Its management reflects credit upon the officials, who are supported by a membership of loyal women. Pittsburgh's Mayor Bars Film Play. The fight on moving picture plays which have features calculated to arouse ill feeling between white and colored people is still on. At Pittsburgh the last week in August leading white and colored people, with the Colored Civic league co-operating, made a strong protest to the city authorities against a certain photo play of the kind here mentioned. The result was that Mayor Armstrong issued an order to the chief of police forbidding the exhibition of any film calculated to inlaws.

His congenial ways and business qualities will no doubt have a tendency to make the business in which he is engaged a success. He was born in New York and came West in the interest of a concession at the Exposition, but on account of differences that exist, he changed his plans and entered the real estate business. Mr. Springer has also succeeded in getting the agency for the northern part of the state of the Travelers Insurance Co. of Hartford, Conn. He has absolute full charge of the road insurance this year. 'I am notorior conferred upon one of our race that has never been bestowed before on anyone. We have found him just as he is recommended, coronial and always ready when you enter his office, 77 B.Con Block, to assist those that need assistance. He is reliable and honest in his business transactions, which is everything to a man's business. The young men who are running the Maroin Hall dancing school on Thursday evenings will make it a point to dispense with the school whenever it interferes with a date taken by any fraternal or charitable organization. They are also in a position to rent Marion Hall at a reduced price on Monday, Tuesday and Thursday and Friday evenings, and solicit the patronage of the public. It is requested that the general public of the bay cities will rally towards attending the entertainment at Hamilton's auditorium on August 26, as Rev. Peck is doing everything that is in his power to make this the greatest affair that has ever been witnessed in Oakland. CHINESE HERB SPECIALISTS.

NOTED CHAMPION “OF RAGE FREEDOM Thrilling Story .f Nat Turner's Great Courage, VISION OF A FREE NATION, | Slaveholding Oligarchy In the South Was Native of Virginia—Quotations | From His Speech on the Day of His Execution. 1 i | | By JOHN E. BE “CE “GRIT.” ; Yonkers, \, ¥.-Many years ago I ‘stood with uncovered and bowed head on the spot in Southampton county, Va., where glorions old Nat ‘Turner | was executed for Jaring to strike a blow for liberty for himself and for his race. I shail never forget the sen- sation of that moment as long as I ‘iive, Nat ‘Turner was Virginia's great- est Negro and was one of the three Negroes in America—Vesey and Ga. | briel being the two others—who, al most single hande. and alone, shook | the slave oligarchy of the south trom its center to its circumference. | It we had now a ‘ge Negroes with the courage and mifihood of those |men and fewer Judases to betray ‘them, as each of these were, the great (battle for manhood rights which we | are now waging against the forces of evil and error would soon be won. Pauline Carrington Bowie, in her book “Their Shadows Before," deals with the Turner insurrection in South- ampton county ins ost engaging and interesting manner. ‘Turner is shown to have been a man of wonderful genius for organization and possessed a magnetic influence over his follow ers. He was far above the average of “his race, for he could read and. write “and understood something of chemis try. He was not the kind of man to be a slave, for men of his mental grasp could not long endvre the galling chains of slavery. Turner seemed to be able to sce the end from the begin ning. And whenever he spoke of the wrongs of his race men shuddered while professing to scout at lis “fa netical utterances.” | A Mr, Mortimer, a northern man, who visited Nat Turner in jail on the mora. ing of the day of is execution, suid to him, “Don't you see now that you | were Wrong, that what you thought ‘was your ifssion was a failure?” ae as a flash Turner answered: “Was Jesus’ effort a failure? ‘They “dlled him too.” “The work of Christ lived on and was accomplished after him,” sald Mr. Mortimer. ising to his full height, Turner replied: “And mine fy Just begun. I say to you what was begun in blood shail be accomplished by blood.” ‘The closing scene in the life of this remarkable Negro is thus deseribed by an eyewitness: “We were directly op- posite the scaffold, which hitherto hat been out of our ringe of vislon. Fas- cinated with the horror of this sight, I gazed fixedly at the instrument of death as motionless asa statue. There j was a stir “t its base, and in an tn- stant Nat Jurner, followed by Mr. Lawson, quickly mounted the few steps to the platform and with a command ing gesture faced the multitude. “Mas ters, may 1 speak? “Gag him!" called @ brutal voice from the crowd. But the sheriff called for jsilence. ‘The shouts and Jeers died into a hush, and the loud, clear voice continued: ‘What is done this day will not alter what will come to pass. ‘That which 1 was sent to do I have done, but the end is not yet. Three times ten years shall come to pass before de- liverance shall be. In a vision of the future the Lord has shown me, Na- thaniel his prophet, a freed nation and a river of blood. White men, there shall arise one of your race in a far land, and blood shall be shed, and the bonds shall be broken. 1 have done my work. What the Lord begins he shall surely danish. I saw battles, fre, blood, freedom." ‘Turner's prophecy that “three times ten years shall come to pass before de- lverance shall be” was fulfilled almost to the letter. He was executed 1a 1851 or 1833, and in 1863 deliverance did come to bis race. So that bis vi- sion of a freed nation and a river of blood, of battles, fire and freedom is now a part of the contemporaneous his- tory of America. His prophetle words, “White men, there shall arise one of your race iu a far land and blood sball be shed and the bonds shall be broken,” show him to have been wiser and keen- er of vision than the rabble that erled “Gag him!" For one of their race did arise in a far land, who in the words of the He- brew prophet, “Loosed the bond of the eaptive and let the oppressed go free” after a river of blood had been shed on the battleflelds of the nation, whose own life went out in blood at the hands of a cowardly assassin, and the deep damnation of his taking off set the J world im tears. Nac Turner was no fanatic; he was a seer, and, like old John Brown of Osawattomie, the eyes of his understanding were full orbed. He suffered martyrdom fur the cause of freedom and died as ouly martyrs ean dle in the cause of lberty amd righteousness. ‘The time will come when the nawes of John Brown and Nat Turner will be among the most il- lustrious in American history.

Walters Institute to Lay Cornerstone at Chapel Grove, Sept. 26. at Chapel Opening, Sept. 26. Warren, Ark. - Walters institute, located at Warren, Ark. will begin its eighth annual session with the laying of the cornerstone and the opening of its new chapel. The exercises begin Sept. 26 with a sermon delivered by Bishop Alexander Walters of New York city, for whom the school is named, and continue through Wednesday, the 20th. The Rev. Thomas W. Wallace, editor of the Western Star of Zion, East St. Louis, Ill., and the Rev. John C. Temple. The new chapel is a modern brick building, affording space in its concrete basement for dining room, kitchen and pantries. The building will be named Blackwell chapel in honor of the splendid service which Bishop G. L. Blackwell has rendered the school and the southwest during the seven years he has presided over that diocese. The bishop also will be present for the event. The main building of Watters institute, a thirty room frame structure, with all of its equipment, was destroyed by fire April 24, 1914. There was only $3,000 insurance, $1,000 of which was used to cancel the mortgaged indebtedness on the building that was burned. Notwithstanding this, Professor James W. Eichelberger, principal of the school, has, with the board of trustees, so managed and worked that money has been raised and two new buildings—a large frame building and the Blackwell chapel, which is to be opened in October—have been erected at a cost of more than $6,000. The frame building has been furnished, current expenses met with a comparatively small deficit and the work is more promising than ever before. The institution enjoys the distinction of having eight very prominent white men on its advisory board, of which board the mayor of Warren is chairman. These gentlemen have stood loyalty by the principal in his efforts to rebuild. The school represents in a very large degree what the race is doing for itself in the south. The principal addressed four conferences presided over by Bishop Blackwell in June, where he received more than $800 for the work. The Woman's Volunteer movement, an organization which began immediately after the fire destroyed the first building, has been helpful in securing money with which to carry on the work. Now re-enforced by a number of prominent women in several states, the organization is making the effort to show the chapel and dining room with necessary equipment and furnishings by Sept. 25. The trustees are also planning to make a special effort on Sept. 26 to raise a large sum with which to meet pressing obligations and to carry the work on throughout the session. The attempt is being made by the management to show how meier are the school facilities for the N_w co youth in this section. There are fewer colleges and good high schools in Arkansas than in any of the southern states. The illiteracy in the del. of Arkansas, near where the school is located, is greatest, while illiteracy in Louisiana, whence a number of the students come, is 48.4 per cent. Walters institute is doing a fine pioneer work in the southeastern part of Arkansas, offering the regular high school course and training in a few industries. ORDER OF SHEPHERDS MEETS Fifth Annual Session of Noted Society Held at Richmond, Va. The fifth annual meeting of the Improved Order of Shepherds and Daughters of Bethlehem we held for three days the second week. September at the Sixti. Mount Zion Baptist church, Richmond, Va. The sessions were largely attended. There were about 300 delegates present from the various local lodges whose reports were read and listened to with great interest. The society was organized at Richmond five years ago. The insurance department, after examining the accounts of the order, approved of its work and management without any criticism of its internal workings or financial condition whatever. The report says: "The affairs of the order are in splendid condition. Death claims and the other financial obligations are promptly settled and indicate that the management of the order is alive to the responsibility which rests upon the officials to deal justly all of the members."
