THE TOPEKA PLAINDEALER. Roosevelt and Many Others Thought They Were Entertaining the Son of an Indian Chief. Meet Me at the FAIR THE N.E.G.K.O has the chance of a life-time to make good. In a few more days the Great Tri State Fair and Industrial Exposition will cease to exist on parur, but will be a stern reality. The eyes of the mighty West are on the Negro, and if he fails, it means that the race will be set back twenty years. Kansas is alive to her sense of it and if our sister states will do equally as well, it will be the biggest thing ever witnessed in the West. THE PLAN DEALER urges that Kansans lose no time in making arrangements for placing exhibits. A Pointer Shall Exhibits to W. A. HILLI, Secretary and Treasurer Tri State Exposition and Fair Association, St Joseph, No. Reunion of FRIENDS! A special dispatch to the Chicago Examiner says: Those without the pale of New York society will no doubt be interested to learn that one of the lions of the Smart Set, who has been extensively entertained by Mrs. John B. Drexel, Mrs. John Jacob Astor and others, and whom President Roosevelt has consulted frequently in regard to Indian affairs, is no other than the son of Mrs. Russell Sage's Negro cook. Though known to the circles of the elite as Antonio Apache, grandson of the famous chief Cochise, this Jusky Beau Brummel began life as a Louisiana pickaniny under the obscure name of "Tony Simpson." That such is the true identity of a man whom they denounce as the "most fantastic faker who ever fooled New York," is declared by William M. Carey and Elwyn W. Deming, both of whom are well known New York painters of Indian life. "It is about time the true character of this imposter is made publicly known," said Mr. Cuey. "He is not only a flicker, but a scamp. He is the same Negro who stole a painting from me about nineteen years ago, and in consequence served two years in Sing Sing prison." "The alleged gambit of Chief Cothue is a trivial," said Mr Deming. "I am glad you are going to expose him, to he has been trailing on the sympathies of a lot of good people who believed he was in it dism." Antonio Ackle, according to the testimony of Mr. City and Mr. Elwir W. Denning, has been able to exploit the crevality of the Smart Set for the last ten years because he made deception an art. Not only did he spee the Indian in physical appearance, but he also studied the habits and language of the rod skir. On top of his Attention he has been customed to wear a wig of course, black, Indian hair, which he brushed almost as smooth as patent leather. Those who have won his confidence say that I possess an elaborate investment of calfs with hair in various lengths, and that he sheds one wig to another as his trust is supposed to grow. Finally comes the chin out, when so badly in jumps back to No. 1 Just the natural color of these tures should impress his claim of Indian ancestry, he is well to be his skin with a coat of bronze paint, doing it so carefully that he has fre- quently proved it artist for color." As the horr of the Fifth Avenue drawing too to Autumn Apache has been worth to tell of his early life in the West with a great amount of detail which seemed corollaborative. It was a far different story from that revealed by the two artists who say that he is a humbug. He made no mention to Mrs. Drexel or Mrs. Astor of the fact that about twenty years ago he used to help his Negro mother peel potatoes and drain spinnach in the Nage household. Installed he boasted that his grand father was the fourth chief Cochise. and that his ancestral realm down in Arizona embarked a territory larger than Coronado. That country even to this day, he said, bore his name And when he was asked about the manners and customs For Information Regarding Rates for Shipment of Stuff, See Your THE SOLEMN CONCLAVE.

GENTLEMEN OF THE CONVENTION: We have assembled to consider questions of importance touching the rights and liberties of the state of Missouri. In doing so, every precaution should be taken to guard against conduct or expressions that will create hostility between the races that occupy the domain of this great State. The inhabitants of the same country should as far as possible do what they can to perpetuate good government and the well being and happiness of all. Some time since the following words appeared in the Christian Advocate, published at Nashville, Tenn. "Antagonisms between the races in the South are so be deplored. They will work untold harm to both, but the greater to the weaker people. Anything that separates the people South in feeling, purpose and sympathy should not be done. We should do that which will crush out all enmity. We must live side by side, and this should be done neighborly." I am in perfect accord with these sentiments. Friendly relations and mutual happiness, on a basis of justice and self-respect, are of first importance to both races. There are persons in the North as well as South who do not like the Negro. From them we can expect nothing. The weak and helpless of every nation have friend among the domestic race, and I am thankful to Almighty God that there is no exception to this rule in our broad country. As soon as the Civil War closed, the friends of humanity in general took the position that true education aimed to plant a love of knowledge, because they knew that universal suffrage demanded universal education, and that education was a better safeguard to liberty than a standing army. They believed in an adherence to truth because it was truth; a reverence for man because he was man; an enthusiasm for liberty because it was the watchword of the Father of our Country, a spirit of kindness because thus dealing with man we can better understand and each other, a sympathy for mankind because such should exist in a common broth thou, and above all a supreme regard for duty to our Creator to our homes and our country. These friends of education have gone on multiplying until they have called their numbers some of the wealthiest and most often invaded America. Among them are Mrs. Pebody, Carnegie Rockefeller and Miss Ann T. Jones, the latter of Philadelphia, who recently gave one million dollars for rural education in the South. This gift comes at a time when most needed, as there has been of late much discussion among it barring Negro schools from State and in some of the States, and should this calamity fall upon us, we hope that the fund will have been sufficiently increased to take up the work where it was left off by the State. The labor of these philanthropists and self-educating educators, many of whom are still among us, were not wholly without results, in the number of teachers, ministers, physicists, attorneys, editors, the clerical force employed by the government, skilled mechanics and agriculturists demonstrate. We now fear that there is a growing feeling among the AN DEN FRUHLING. (To the Spring.) Wilkommen, shou ne duing! Do We woe the Norther! Mit dichten Blumenkuchen Will- E? E! Daß man wusst!

The National Negro Business League of which Leofer I. Washington is president, will hold its eighth annual convention in Topeka, Kansas, this year, the dates having been fixed for August 15 and 16. It is the first time in the history of the organization that it has seen such a convention so far west as Kansas. This league, as it generally knows, is composed of many of the best, most illustrious and industrious men and women of the race, and we may say in a large measure represent the wealth, business acumen and intelligence of the race. And when we say intelligence do not mean to connote the terms literary attainments, but we mean that men and women who do things who occupy themselves or themselves are living and practical examples to the world and business world that could be well explained. Also and women of every wealth are represented in this great concourse of industry that is soon to invade. For the time the broad and inviting plains of history, Kannan. Largely the majority of those clerking will come from the North, East and South, some as delegates, and many as friends of the League who will make the trip to see the West as a matter of curiosity and personal pleasure. The tendrance will be large, we dare say, the largest in the history of the League in point of delegates enrolled. What will the West do? To what extent will we contribute to this splendid galley of the commercial and business world? Is it not the most important moment to place ourselves favorably there of the more distant parts who are soon to become our guests? it will be a splendid opportunity in the North, South, East and West to touch the cord of common brotherhood and for three days drink from the same fountain that will be filled with the rain. Of economy, thrift and industry. There has never been a time in history of this Republic when there was greater necessity for a common understanding as to the best methods of making a life worth living. Of realizing a life not only enjoyable to the mind or a common try but to the world. the program for this session will be rife with seed thoughts, thoughts when once a crop will take root and seed forth a hundred fold. The brooklyn to be seeded from this meeting, especially to the West is calculable. The opportunity will not rises we begin to to take it seen until it is past. To the end therefore, that we in West especially, may be able to grow and hold all the benefits that are derived from the meeting it is expected that in each community (any and country alike) Leagues — Business League — be organized and delegated at once to attend this meeting and all business men and women forth every possible method to be tendered and bear the program. The committee on transportation is assured of a rate of not over one and one third farce for the round trip and the benefit of those who may avail themselves of the opportunity. Topeka most heartily extends to all her warmest and best right hand. The necessary committees have been appointed and ample accommodations for all will be provided.

The Enterprise is mght in recommending the boycott, but why pass it "quietly’’ along the Jine? How are the people to know the guilty firms when our esteemed contemporary who advises that such steps be taken only ‘‘hints,’’ andis apparently afraid to call names? Negroes must demand every right that is accorded any other citizen, and if a store’ discriminates, don't “pass the word along quietly,'’ but cry out from the house-tops that every black man, woman and child may know, and steer clear of suchiirms. Let the white man know that the Negro will not pay to be Jim Crowed. The Enterprise started right, but it seems that Bro. Mahammitt “weakeded" towsrd the end,and all are in a quandary as to what merchant is guilty of discrimi- Dating. “The Boston Store,’ one of the largest establishments in Omaha will sell a Negro anything but refuse to serve him soda,ete, Is this not sufficient grounds for a boycott? Is this the con- temptible concerns our good friend Mahammitt had reference to? Well, it is high time the Negroes of Omaha start on the Boston Store before this custom becomes general and wil] be much more difficult to overcome, Bennett's and many other stores have as good wares as the Boston Store and will extend equal courtesies. Pass it loudly along the line that the Negroes are threugh with this outfit, and every Negro who places any worth oa manhood, pride and self-respect should consider it a crime against the race to be caught in this store.

New York Church Member Keeps Collections at Par "We have a member of this congregation," said an usher in a Lexington avenue church, according to the New York Press, "who contributes to his support in an unusual way. He pays his new rent all right, but he has a rooted objection to dropping a coin in the collection plate. No matter whether the contribution is for church expenses or for foreign missions, this man ducks the plate when it passes his pew. He says he abhors giving alms before men. But he redaims all the bad money that others drop into the plate as a way of getting even with his conscience. "When the collection is counted all the bad coin is picked out and given to the treasurer of the church. Some Sundays there is a good deal of it. It seems as though men and women who have Canadian dinners and quarters, mutilated coins of all denominations and money that was never made in the mint feel justified in dropping it into the collection box. When the treasurer gets a handful of this money he calls the old man into the vestry after the Wednesday evening prayer meeting and gets good money for it. The old man puts the bad coin in P's rocket and takes it home." Keap Serene. When you come to thick of it, most of us do have a hard time keeping ourselves in order. Temper, nerves, self-arrogance, and longing, ambitions and desires, all insisting to have a bearing, and down steps wisdom and order, control. Of course there are the cool headed, intellectual people to whom self-sacrifice means nothing, and little they know of the light of the other passionate half. Ill health and discontent are the fruits of the battle. Keep rerease, say "I shall control myself and be a cheerful philosopher" and all will go well—New York Post. Chinese Desired to Be by One Who Has Made a Study of Them How little the white man especially the majority of those of us who go forth as missionaries to "convert the heathen," comprehend the Chinese character! To the student of Chinese institutions, and the Chinese themselves, it seems outrageous presumption, for the truth is that the Chinese are without doubt the most religious people on the globe, says a writer in Cutting. Their religion is a very part of themselves, accepted without discussion from birth. The lowest pater, from a worldly point of view, lives on one of the hundreds of sampans floating before Canton, will deny himself in order that he may perform a particular religious duty. There are no people save the Mohammedans that so completely live up to the faith they profess. China has no divergent churches, no wrangling another; there is the one creed, of thousands of years standing, to which all yield allegiance and to which all pin a faith that continues unto death in incontrovertible Now and zeal we hear of a "converted" Chinaman; but I never saw one that had really broken from the faith of his fathers who was not the less trustworthy. In a considerable experience with many kinds of natives in the wilderness of their own country I have invariably found the ones furthest from "civilization" and the "generating influence of conflicting, white man creeds to be the most honorable and dependable. I can this as no unkind reflection upon the Christian faith or upon the real, often, also, so ignorantly directed of many good people ARE YOU GOING TO VISIT CHICAGO THEN, if you are you would want to stop at some good sellable home where things are homelike?

Why do so many druggists send to LEE'S for the Drugs with which to fill your Prescriptions? than any other druggist in the city, and that the druggist who refused to sell you a glass of ice cream soda the other day charges you more for your medicines than Mr. Lee? And did you ever hear of any one being refused anything in Lee's store because of his color? Really, now, do these ideas ever present themselves to you?
