INSIDE INFORMATION ABOUT THE PEONAGE CASES IN GEORGIA
INSIDE INFORMATION ABOUT THE PEONAGE CASES IN GEORGIA
(By The Associated Negro Press)
Atlanta, Ga., April 14.—We think the readers of the Associated Negro Press should know something of the encouraging things that are transpiring in connection with the exposure of the eleven murders of Negroes that were perpetrated to support the fact that peonage of the most galling kind existed on John S., Williams farm in Jasper County, Georgia. Clyde Manning, colored, was his right hand man and admits that he killed nine of the eleven in accordance with "Mr. Johnney's orders. Says he had to do so or be killed himself. Williams and Manning's trial began April 5th and some of the prominent whites of the State lead by Mr. Woods—white—a good friend of the colored people, have employed one of the oldest Criminal Lawyers in the State to defend Manning.
Governor Dorsey of Georgia has been extremely active the very first in pushing the case against those responsible for the awful crime. Not only so but he says there are at least fifty Negroes in Atlanta who are refugees from this unjust system. One or two are employed at the State Capital building and certain of the officials have interposed to prevent their being carried back to the country.
He also says "After some of the communities in Georgia have driven away their farm labor and driven away their "farm loans," they will have an opportunity to sit down and think over calmly whether it pays to deal justly with the Negro."
Another feature worth noting is the fact that the daily papers of Atlanta have been extremely active in exposing and condemning Editorially the awful crimes in question; so much so that some of the Jasper ounty citizens are quite sore over the matter.
DREAM OF MILLIONS IS DISAPPOINTMENT TO MANY INVESTORS
DREAM OF MILLIONS IS DISAPPOINTMENT TO MANY INVESTORS
(By the Associated Negro Press)
Pensacola, Fla., April 14.—Oil stock millions was the text of a slick white faker who has been fleecing Pensacola Negroes of their hard earned money recently. He operated in the big Negro churches and is said to have reaped a rich harvest from his all too confiding victims. The man was a good speaker and baited his confidence hook with well worded offers to help lift the various church debts. Now the Negroes are loudly clamoring for the return of their misplaced cash and have taken up the matter with the county prosecutor.
GEORGIA GOVERNOR PROMISES
PUNISHMENT OF PEONAGE
The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, 70 Fifth avenue, New York, today made public a letter received from Governor Hugh M. Dorsey of Georgia, relative to the disclosures regarding peonage in Jasper County, Georgia, which caused the murder of eleven colored peons. The Governor definitely promised to do all in his power to see that the perpetrators of the system are punished.
Governor Dorsey's letter to the Association reads as follows:—
"I assure you that all true Georgians deploy the awful tragedies recently brought to light, and I am leaving no stone unturned to put the 'wheels of justice' in motion, and hope to bring about the conviction of the guilty parties. The Governor, as you know, has no jurisdiction. All he can do is to try to bolster up the officials elected by the people."
(By The Associated Negro Press) Raleigh, N. C., April 14.—North Carolina is now boasting of 25,568 births of Negro children during last year. This number shows an increase of one-tenth of one per cent over the white rate. The Bureau of vital statistics has congratulated the Negroes of the state on the splendid birth showing.
GEORGIA CITIZENS ADOPT RESOLUTIONS CONDEMNING PEONAGE
(By The Associated Negro Press) Atlanta, Ga., April 14—Resolutions strongly condemning the "murder farm" horror which led recently to the discovery of eleven bodies of Negroes in Jasper and Newton counties, and appealing to the people of Georgia to cry out against such a condition of affairs have been adopted by the Atlanta committee on church co-operation.
The committee offered its services to Governor Dorsey and other law enforcement officials in aiding to secure convictions against those responsible for the crime. The resolution follows:
"WHEREAS, in Georgia men have tortured Negroes, as men, worthy of the name, would not torture a beast, and have murdered Negroes, and have received no punishment for their crimes,
"WHEREAS, the conditions which justly call for the condemnation of God and man upon our beloved state, have culminated in the cold-blooded murder of eleven or more men upon one plantation in Jasper and Newton counties.
"BE IT RESOLVED, that as followers of Jesus Christ and as citizens of Georgia,
"FIRST. We concern with horror the atrocities committed in Jasper and Newton counties.
"SECOND. We urge the people of Georgia of every creed to cry out against the conditions which have produced this horror and beg them to unite in putting an end to these conditions by demanding that the virtual sale of men, convicted of crime, to pay fines, and the use of fines in payment of the fees of public officials be stopped, and that all laws be impartially enforced, and by condemning any laxity in the enforcement of law by any public official.
"THIRD. We commend those citizens of Jasper county who have urged the speedy enforcement of law, and the public officials in the counties named for their co-operation, and Governor Hugh M. Dorsey for moving so vigorously and promptly to bring to punishment the perpetrators of this last crime against Negroes in Georgia.
"FOURTH. We offer our services to Governor Dorsey and the officials in charge of the enforcement of law to aid in any and every way possible in securing the detection and conviction of those guilty of this crime against God and man."

Will Urge School Children To Continue Education
(By the Associated Negro Press)
Baltimore, Md., April 14.—A country wide movement to urge boys and girls to go to high school and go to college instead of dropping out and going to work, will be set in motion the week of May 9th to 15th.
President S. S. Booker of the Alphi Phi Fraternity, which is backing the movement, declared that in the thirty big centers where the branches of the Fraternity are located, speakers will be sent out and literature distributed to parents and school children.
Statistics in the office of the Fraternity show that a half million children and parents were reached by this kind of propaganda last year, and it is believed that hundreds were persuaded to remain at their studies. During the "Go to High School and Go to College Week" meetings will be held in the leading schools and churches in all the centers at which time speakers will point out the importance of keeping Colored youth in school until they are thoroly prepared for the work of life.
The more we think about the matter the firmer becomes our conviction that being President is no sincere jot.
Keeping your eyes on Heaven, is all right, but how about keeping your eyes on the pitfalls of life? This may be the way to get to Heaven.

BENEFIT TO BE GIVEN UNEMPLOYED BLACKS OF CHICAGO SOON
BENEFIT TO BE GIVEN UNEMPLOYED BLACKS OF CHICAGO SOON
(By The Associated Negro Press)
Chicago, Ill., April 14.—Reports that have gone out to the press through out the country are decidedly misleading in the statements that an abnormal number of the colored people who have come into the North looking for work have been grossly deceived. What is true is that a considerable number of industrial workers have been compelled to bow to the labor depression brought about by the needs and complications of readjustment. This situation, however, included whites as well as the colored people engaged in industrial pursuits.
For the colored unemployed a colored citizens' committee is successfully solving the problem by a monster benefit, to be given in the 8th Regiment Armory on the night of the 18th of April. The citizens at large are responding cheerfully to the call of the committee. Even the leading feminine members of the famed Lafayette Players are actively engaged in the ticket selling campaign now well under way. Laura Bowman, Susie Sutton, Ida Anderson and Alice Gorgas come out among the audiences which gather nightly at the Avenue Theater during the intermissions between the acts and sell tickets for the benefit.
The benefit promises to be a big success. William A. Buckner, former trainer for the "White Sox" American League Baseball team, Claude A. Barnett and the Chicago DEFENDER are among the managers of the benefit. The entire proceeds are to be used in the purchase and distribution of food among the needy unemployed Negro workmen throughout the city.
WHIPPING POST IS RELIC OF DARK AGES
(By the Associated Negro Press)
Wilmington, Del., April 14.—Four men were publicly whipped at the Newcastle county workhouse last Saturday, in the presence of about 125 persons, for crimes committed in Delaware.
Warden M. S. Plummer administered the punishment. He used the regulation whip, about three feet long. Three of the men flinched under the blows. The fourth man "took his medicine" with a smile.
Unusual interest had been aroused in the lashings because of the discussion throughout the country of the whipping post as a crime deterrent.
Whippings took place in the jail yard, where stands a twelve inch post, to which the prisoners, in a standing position, are attached with shackles. Lewis, Negro, was led to the post, stripped to the waist. Deputy Warden Leach read the court's sentence imposing a sentence of one year imprisonment and twenty lashes for larceny.
Lewis was shackled to the post. Warden Plummer applied the whip. At the end of the twentieth blow, Lewis locked around and smiled and asked, "is that all?" He was unshackled, his coat put on and led to his cell. Next Leonard Bennett was tied up. He was sentenced to ten years imprisonment and forty lashes for highway robbery. Bennett filinched as the blows were laid on.
John Richardson followed. He stood the first eleven blows without exhibiting any apparent emotion, but at the twelfth he began to squirm. From then to the fortyth lash Richardson twisted and stamped as the whip struck. Horace Archy, sentenced to forty lashes and twenty years' imprisonment for highway robbery, was shaking as he was led to the post. He trembled while Leach read the sentence. Archy filinched throughout the entire ordeal. He was able to walk to his cell unaided.
"This is the one disagreeable feature of my job," remarked Plummer, when the whippings were ended. "But I intend to do my duty and won't ask any of my deputies to do what I do not like."
While we are busy doing our Spring house-cleaning why not take a turn at Spring mind-cleaning.
FLAGSTAFF
Mrs. T. W. Garrison has been confined to her bed the past week suffering with a severe cold.

Syndicate Will Attempt To Destroy Hairdressing Business Among Blacks
(By the Associated Negro Press)
Chicago, Ill., April 14.—The Beauty Culture Trust is seeking to destroy the hairdressing business among the colored people throughout the country. Competition is the direct cause for this action on the part of the trust. This powerful organization is endeavoring to procure legislative action in the several states that will contain restrictive provisions which will literally choke its colored competitors to a hasty business death.
Illinois and New York are the first states to feel the fangs of the "trust" in this respect. Bills have been introduced in the respective legislatures of these states which provides for an edificational qualification for all who engage in the business of hairdressing in these two commonwealths. The main and dangerous features of the provisions in these proposed measures are the requirements of the examinations included in their text. If these bills become laws no one will be permitted to engage in the business who has not passed an examination that will be prescribed and prepared by commissioners whose personnel will be determined by the "trust" interests. Already chiropody is so restricted that a course equivalent to two years in medical college is necessary.
Increase of Marriages Among Blacks Shown In Nation's Capital
(By the Associated Negro Press)
Washington, Ga., April 14.—There has been a noticeable increase of marriages among the Negroes of Washington recently. This interest is declared to have been stimulated by the insistence of the local authorities to investigate the legal relations of a large number of Negro couples who have been reported as living together without the sanction of the marriage law. Local Justices are said to be reaping a rich harvest as a result of the investigation.
First Legal Jury of Colored Women Brings In Verdict 'Not Guildy
Indianapolis, Ind., April 14.—Indianapolis has just had the first jury of twelve Negro women in the legal history of the country.
They sat in the case of a Negro, Daniel Holt, plaintiff in a suit filed against Mr. and Mrs. Eugene M. Fife, both white.
Holt claimed the Pife automobile crashed into his horse and wagon to the tune of $165.00 worth of damages. After Rev. John Fox, also Colored, opened the trial with prayer, the jury heard testimony and in twelve minutes returned a verdict in favor of the defendants.
The days are longer but skirts are the same.
DR. R. R. MOTON MAKES WONDERFUL SPEECH IN OLD ALABAMA
(By The Associated Negro Press)
Montgomery, Ala., April 14.—At the recent meeting of the Alabama Teachers' Association, which was held in this city, one of the sessions was devoted to discussions on race relations by white and colored citizens. The principal speaker on this occasion was Dr. R. R. Moton, Principal of Tuskegee Institute. Dr. Moton spoke with the utmost frankness on this subject, plainly and forcibly, and was applauded frequently by the members of both races. He referred to the necessity of frankness and confidence on the part of each race in the solution of the race problem and set forth the conditions which to his mind caused the most friction, at the same time explaining some of the things that were in the "back of the heads of the Negroes." Among other things Dr. Moton said:
"I know one of the chief reasons why Negroes are not always as frank in discussing matters of discrimination and injustice with white people as they might be. They are afraid that these people will immediately jump to the conclusion that they are arguing for 'social equality' which is the most misused and confused expression in all discussions of race relations. Let me say with all emphasis possible, that not one Negro in ten thousand ever raised the question of "social equality" What they want is equal protection, equal civic rights, equal opportunity, and equal educational facilities. Negroes do not object to legal segregation because they want to be with white people, but because it places upon them and their children by law a badge of inferiority which carries with it inferior treatment and opportunities. In asking for the change of these conditions and the things to which I have referred, he is not asking for any special privilege, for if democracy means anything at all it means equal opportunity, protection and rights for every citizen. And I am glad to say that there is a large group, which is rapidly increasing in number, of the best people of the South who working together that the Negro might be accorded his rights, and live in peace and security may thereby be enabled to contribute their fullest share towards the highest development of the South."
Market Report Shows Decline in Cotton
New York, April 14.—There was a change in the tone of both the Liverpool and local cotton markets last week, which was attributed partly to an easier technical position, following recent advances, reports of increased spot offerings and apprehensions of labor troubles in the British coal mines at the beginning of next month. May contracts here sold off from 72.08 to 12.08 and closed at 12.22, with the general market steady at a net decline of 12 to 14 points.
For the first time in nearly two weeks, the Liverpool market was disappointing from the bullish standpoint, and the opening here was barely steady at a decline of 2 to 15 points. Liverpool continued weak after the local opening and a heavy seller here, particularly in the later months, and supposedly on fresh straddle accounts. There was also considerable southern selling, which increased, the disposition of recent buyers to take profits on long contracts and, before the decline was checked, active months sold about 40 to 46 points below Monday's figures. This carried July off to 12.55 and October to 13.06, after which there were rallies of several points on covering.
Crime Wave Among Blacks To Be Given Serious Study

WHITE WOMEN WILL OPPOSE APPOINTMENT OF NEGRO REGISTRAR
(By The Associated Negro Press)
Washington, D. C., April 14.—Members of Congress to day received copies of a petition, addressed to Mrs. Virginia White Speel, chairman of the National Woman's Republican committee of the District of Columbia, and signed by 508 white women employed in the office of the Register of the Treasury, opposing the appointment of a Negro as Register.
"We have been definitely informed" the signers of the petition declared, "that the appointment of a colored man as Register of the Treasurer is being considered.
"The Register's office is now very large and is doing responsible work. Its personnel consists of more than 900 clerks, mostly ex-service men and white women, who are dependent upon their income here for support. For a Negro to have jurisdiction over these clerks would be intolerable.
"It is true that colored men have served as Register's of the Treasury, but out of the twenty-two registers only four have been Negroes. At no time when this office was under the supervision of a Negro did the personnel consist of more than nineteen clerks and one messenger."
The signers of the petition, whose homes as given included thirty-five states, in a letter to members of Congress, enclosing the petition, declared: "This petition does not come from any political faction, nor was it instigated by southern prejudice. Northerners, Southerners, Westerners, Democrats and Republicans alike have set their signature thereto.
"In times of war it was thought inadvisable to put Negro officers in charge of white troops. In times of peace it would certainly be inexpedient to give Negroes jurisdiction over white citizens."
LOUISIANA BLACKS PLEAD FOR BALLOT ON GENERAL PRINGIPLES
LOUISIANA BLACKS PLEAD FOR BALLOT ON GENERAL PRINGIPLES
Baton Rouge, La., April 14.—A large delegation of citizens of the State from New Orleans, Shreveport and the parishes, appeared before the suffrage and educational committee and pleaded for the ballot on the one hand and for greater educational facilities on the other. They ask for the ballot on educational and property provisions.
"We are satisfied with those qualifications," they said.
They do not look upon the "understand clause" with any favor. They said it is a two-edged sword and will cut two ways—against whites as well as blacks. Bishop R. E. Jones, of the A. M. E. church, chairman, made the plea for the suffrage, in part follows:
"We base our plea upon our aggregate wealth. We have been operating as many as 50,160 farms with an acreage of 2,348,048 acres, 1,466,607 of which are improved farms producing crops worth over $150,000,000 annually.
"We own and operate four Statewide benefit life insurance companies, together doing a total annual collection in premiums of over $750,000. We have fully 90 per cent of the male adults, and 75 per cent of the female adults of our group in gainful occupations.
"We have one State Business League and are engaged in over 70 kinds of business enterprises outside of farming. We have six colleges of our own, 20 agricultural, industrial and manual training, and many primary and denominational schools; and we have 11 farm demonstration agents."
In the delegation appearing were; Bishop R. E. Jones, Prof. J. S. Clark, president of Southern University; Jno. G. Lewis, grand master of Masons; S. W. Green, grand chancellor of Pythians; B. V. Baranco, head of Colored Odd Fellows; Walter L. Cohen, head of several business interests in New Orleans; Dr. J. N. Lowery, Albert Workman, Dr. George W. Lucas, Chas. M. Robertson, Rev. L. Allen, Jr., Rev. T. F. Robinson, J. Edward Hines, G. C. Williams. Prof. Clark made the presentation before committee on education.

NOW OR NEVER — PULL TOGETHER
WE ARE OFF TO A GRAND START. We must all pull together and we will get somewhere. This means all, and it means the immediate cessation of petty bickering, personal faultfindings and internal strife.
Georgia and Mississippi peonage and wholesale murders, lynchings and vandalism; Texas, Arkansas and Tennessee atrocities; wholesale disfranchisement; Chicago house bombings; humiliating segregations, industrial intolerance, educational crimping and gratituitous social injustice are common enemies that require mass opposition.
The masses of our people are right in temper and spirit. Dr. W. E. B. Dubois, and others who have but recently finished nation-wide tours, attest this truth. From one end of the country to the other, Colored Americans are thinking in terms of absolute justice.
Therefore, it behooves the active and accepted leadership, regardless of vehicle of action, to pull together. The sentiment of the government, and the sentiment of right thinking white people favor us in a square deal. We must not, ourselves, explode the opportunity.
President Harding is going to be fair to all. There is no question about that. No influence, within or without, will swerve him from the righteous path of duty.
Congress is in action. Certain laws of great significance are proposed and certain corrections of unjust practices are demanded. Salvation in economic opportunity rests with governmental backing.
Great agencies are at work. Their wedging point is concentrated in Washington. This wedging point will be concentrated in Washington until something breaks or gives way.
The National Association of Colored People, the National Equal Rights League, the Committee on Race Relations, headed by Johnson, Cchurch, Cottrill, Cohen, Howard and others, together with the Associated Negro Press, are among the National forces driving against the Washington wedging point with directness and effectiveness. Each must be for all, and all must be for each. Each has an unquestioned and loyal following. Each has one banner under which all are advancing; that banner bears one word: JUSTICE.
We call upon the people to exercise the highest and most unselfish standard of co-operation in this gigantic struggle for definite advancement and progress. Our faith in the people justifies the belief that the people will not fail if the leaders do not fail. Our faith in the sincerity of purpose of the leaders justifies the hope that as we have a big job it will be carried on in a big way.

Marcus Garvey, Provisional President of Africa, is now in the West Indies somewhere, and there is talk of excluding him permanently from the United States, as "an undesirable alien." Some colored folk who do not agree with Garveysim, may make the pitiable mistake of sympathizing with an effort to exclude Garvey. They may forget that when it comes to the question of human rights, of the rights of a black man to go and come in the world so long as he obeys the laws of the land—they may forget that when it comes down to the question of common rights, we are all inseparably linked with Garvey and he with us. Garvey has lived here for many years, and unless he has committed crimes against society here, no colored man of ordinary self-respect and of brains will abet any efforts of anybody to "exclude him" as an undesirable alien. That generality has worked a lot of injustice to white people already. There is no reason why colored people should countenance it. We are always likely, however, to make the mistake of rejoicing when an injustice is done to our enemy opponent—forgetting that whatever wrong is done another man can be done to any of us. It would be just as sensible for us to rejoice when a mob burns a Negro that we do not personally like or who happens to be our rival in some way. A few people have no more brains than that.
We may disagree with some of Garvey's ideas, but we are not a coward and do not seek a coward's advantage.—Some white people, however, are very cunning; they write long magazine articles about Mr. Garvey and tell many lies and make many exaggerations about his work and the holdings and doings of colored people—not altogether calculated to help either Mr. Garvey or the colored people—and when they really turn in the dark and show what they really intend by an effort to take advantage of both Garvey and the rest of us. Some of us have had sense enough to know that much of what has been appear-
ing in certain magazines and papers was not really meant to HELP but to HURF. They have hoped thus by exaggerating certain oddities and peculiarities in "Garveyism." they would really do great harm to certain other movements of the American Negro, of which they are far more afraid than they will ever be of an attack upon Africa. It is like military trickery; they hoped by directing attention to what they think is a futile attack upon Africa, that they will thereby divert energy from what they fear one hundredfold more; the attack upon the Barbarisms of Texas, the slave systems of Georgia and the Cannibalisms of Arkansas.
And now they show their real hand by making suggestions to "keep Garvey out," and they expect the rest of us Negroes to be such poor fools as to join in and help at this stage of the scheme. We won't do it. We will rather fight for Garvey's right as a citizen of the world and as a property-holder and an accredited resident of the United States, to go and come at his will. We are tired of being inveigled into fighting each other in the interest of our REAL COMMON ENEMY. We won't be fooled both ways.

This is a photograph of the famous old Bridge of Spain, Manila. It is now a departed landmark of the Philippines, for its place has been taken by one of the finest bridges in the entire Orient, the new Jones bridge.
The Jones Bridge is named in honor of the late Congressman W. A. Jones of Virginia, author of the Jones law of 1916 which promised the Filipinos independence upon the establishment of a stable government.
The old Bridge of Spain is called "the mother of Manila's bridges." The original bridge was built of pontoons sometime between the years 1590 and 1600, being known as the Bridge of Boats. The stone bridge shown above was built about 1630. It was twice damaged by earthquakes, and was once partly demolished by a flood.
If a teacher in a public school in the Philippines desires to punish a child, she doesn't have to apply the ruler. She simply sentences the offending pupil to remain away from school a few days!
This is the most severe punishment she can inflict, for Filipino children take an almost abnormal pleasure in going to school and acquiring an education. The all-Filipino legislature, in response to the popular demand for "schools, and still more schools," is constantly increasing its appropriations for education, but the schools can scarcely be constructed fast enough to care for the ever-increasing enrollment. The school enrollment is now 802,000 without any compulsory attendance laws. When Dewey sailed into Manila Bay there were 2,100 private schools in the islands. Today there are 6,500 schools and colleges, with 17,000 Filipino teachers and about 1,600 other teachers, 341 of whom are Americans.
The University of the Philippines is the center of learning of the entire Orient, and is the pride of the Filipino people. It has an enrollment of 3,500 students. Santo Tomas university of Manila, older than Harvard, is another famous sent of learning.
The school system includes normal schools, agricultural colleges, twenty-seven farm schools, a nautical school and a school for the deaf and blind. The Filipino pupil, in addition to learning English and in addition to his regular studies, learns basket raking, embroidery and hat weaving, the trades peculiar to the islands, as well as the domestic sciences and pedagogy. There are more positions than can be filled by the trade school and commercial college graduates. The trade and agricultural schools produced $1,176,850 worth of goods in 1919. There is nothing that the Filipino people take more pride in and that
they are more grateful to the United States for, than their school system, which has been declared by many competent critics to be one of the finest in the world. While the system was implanted in the islands by Americans, every cent of the cost has been cheerfully borne by the Filipino people. The schools are making an English speaking race of the Filipino nation. English is the official language, and it is declared will continue to be when independence is granted.
"The Filipino boys and girls are well balanced, docile and industrious

pupils," says Junius B. Wood, who was sent to the islands by the Chicago Daily News to investigate conditions there. "To attend school is a privilege to a Filipino child or young man, not an unwelcome duty. In the cities those who work days go to school at night. "Today there is hardly a barrio where youngsters cannot be found who speak English. One third of the house of representatives and eighteen of the twenty-four senators speak English. In the next election, in 1922, the young men of the new schools will be stepping into control, and the first great goal of the public school system will have been reached."

At last, the great Mock Trial will be held. Friday night April 22nd at the C. M. E. church, corner 7th street and Jefferson, the Phoenix Literary and Debating Society will stage a Mock Trial. The defendant is charged with murder and the prosecuting attorneys are G. S. Rodgers and Cleo. M. Roberts. Attorneys for the defendant are Major Jones and Chas. F. Gardner of Chicago. This is going to be a hard tough case as all the evidence against the defendant is purely circumstantial. Prosecutor Rodgers says the criminal must hang or be sentenced to life imprisonment and attorney Jones says that he has never lost a case in all his years of practice. It will be worth going miles to see. Remember the place and date. Hon. William E. Watkins will in all probability, serve as judge on this occasion, for he is well versed in court procedure. You cannot afford to miss it.
Mr. Fred Williams and Miss Emily Crump of Phoenix were quietly married in Florence, Ariz., on last Tuesday. The young people did not take any of their friends into their confidence, but slipped away to Florence and were married before anybody's suspicion had been aroused. The bride's parents Mr. and Mrs. Wm. P. Crump, were let in on the secret and were present at the marriage together with the other members of the family. The bride is a native daughter of Arizona, a graduate of Storer College, and very prominent socially. She has been employed by Madam Howard at the Mary Francis Elite Shop in So. 5th Avenue, where she has mastered the art of dressmaking, millinery and designing. The groom is a popular young man who came to Phoenix several years ago from Parsons Kans., where he bears an enviable reputation. He is a torsorial artist of the first class and is employed by the Green Brothers, in North Central avenue. The newly weds will reside at 822 East Jefferson st. The Tribune joins their many friends in wishing them nothing but smooth sailing over the tempestuous sea of matrimony.
Sunday was trustee day at the A. M. E. church and the attendance was unusually large. The pastor, Rev. T. J. Sanferd was at his best and delivered two wonderful sermons.

At 6:30 the Allen Christian Endeavor met with Mr. Marby as leader and held an interesting meeting. On next Sunday Miss Constance Hall will lead the Endeavor meeting and all young people are invited to attend. The collections for the day were good as usual. Second Baptist Church
Splendid services were conducted last Sunday at the Second Baptist church and the attendance was large. The pastor, Rev. E. D. Greene preached two able sermons and all were benefited by his words.

How about Tombstone Rev.? Srgt. James Weatherly left last week on a five months' vacation and Mr. D. Roberts has taken his place at the E. P. & S. W. baggage room.
The rally given last Sunday at the Baptist church for the benefit of the B. Y. P. U. was a grand success. Rev. Newell the pastor, spoke like the famous Dr. R. R.

To Our Readers
No person is in a better position to know the attitude of the business concerns of a community than the one who solicits the advertisements and comes in personal contact with the heads of the business concern. When the advertisement of a business firm is carried in the Tribune, it not only serves as an announcement of the special prices or the line of goods handled by that concern, but it is a Direct Invitation to members of the race to patronize the business place; further, it is assurance of fair and courteous treatment.

Mothers Cook Book
Make yourselves nests of pleasant thoughts, bright fancies, satisfied memories, noble histories, faithful sayings, treasure houses of precious and restful thoughts, which are about discipline pain not make gloomy, nor poverty take away from us—houses built without hands, for our souls to live in.—John Ruskin.
SIMPLE DESSERTS
CUSTARDS, in various forms and flavors, rice, tapioca, gelatin and fruits are all good desserts for the little people. Fruits are stimulating; milk, eggs, and such combinations are nourishing, and these simple foods, when served in variety, will never become monotonous.
Apricot Charlotte.
Wash one-fourth pound of dried apricots, cover with cold water and soak over night. Cook in the same water until soft, then rub through a sieve. Soak one tablespoonful of gelatin in one-third of a cupful of cold water, add one-third of a cupful of boiling water, the juice of a lemon, one cupful of sugar and the strained apricot, Cool, and when the jelly begins to thicken, beat until light, then add the stiffly beaten whites of three eggs and continue beating until the mixture holds its shape. Chill and serve with whipped cream.
Mock Sherbet.
Cook one-half cupful of minute tapioca, one-fourth teaspoonful of salt, one cupful of sugar and two cupfuls of boiling water, together until clear, using a double boiler. Add the juice of two lemons about five minutes before taking from the fire, also the yellow rind of one lemon. Pour the mixture on a platter which has been dipped in cold water. As soon as the edges begin to jelly add two egg whites beaten stiff. Beat until light and foamy. Serve very cold in sheer bett cups with whipped cream on top.
Coconut Custard.
Prepare a custard for cup custards,
pour into cups and sprinkle the top of
each with a teaspoonful of fresh,
grated coconut. Bake in hot water
until firm. Chill before serving.

How It Started
LIBRARIES.
THE forerunner of the modern libraries were the collections of manuscripts' and clay tablets which the ancients made. The literary library of Ashbrunipal at Nineveh dates back to 668-626 B. C. Other libraries and collections of Archives have been discovered at Nippur, Babylon, Larsa, Evech, and other lost cities. Some of these seem to date back to almost 2000 B. C.
