THE TOPEKA PLAINDEALER. NUMBER 35. TOPEKA, KANSAS, FRIDAY MORNING, AUGUST 38, 1907. New York Church Member Keesa Instctions 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 pew rest all right, but he has 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 redeems all the bad money that others drop into the plate as a way of getting even with Ms. conscience "When the collection is counted all the bad coins picked out and given to the church of the church Some Sundays but is a good deal of it it seems though men and women who have Italian three and quarters, mutilated coins of all denominations at all money that was never made in the mint feel justified in dropping it into the collection box When the treasurer is a handful of this money he cut the old coin into the vestry after the Wednesday evening prayer meeting and gets good money for it The old man puts the bad coin in his pocket and takes it home" WHAT HE WOULD DO. Boldhorn Course in Event of His Birth In Suddenly, Awake Of Col. John C. Hayes, who served with distinction under Gen. Winfield Scott in the Mexican war, an amusing story is told by T. E. Parish in his "Gold Hunters of California." Hayes with his command, had been out scouting. On his return he made no report to Gen. Scott, who sent for him. Gen Scot was a veritable martinet in enforcing military discipline. After Hayes was seated in the commander's headquarters, Scott said: "Col Hayes, I have received no report of your expedition against the padre." I did not think it worth while," said Hayes. "Every officer of the army is required to make a full report of everything to his superior officer. Please make your report verbally." Hayes began by saying that he struck the padre's trail on a certain day, followed it for two days and on the third day while his command was roasting at noon and taking their steaks, the old padre came down on them. The "boys" gathered themselves together and whipped the Mexicans off killing quite a number of the padre command. His own loss was insignificant one killed and three wounded "Surprised you, oh!" guarded Scott. "Yes, we were not expecting him." "Where were your sketches?" "Did not have any." "What!" shouted Gen. Scott. "A solon in the regular army of the United States go into camp in the heart of the enemy's country and never place a picket on guard! What would you do if surprised when naked?"

He has gone out of the way to try to behalt its work and its manager, Mr. H. J. Binkett, and says the Bureau will die shortly, but we were born above this business. Therefore we support Kelly Miller for promotion, when we see his record justifies it. We believe his intellectual and moral attainments justify his elevation, to say nothing of his length of service. It is not our policy to pursue Kelly Miller or anybody else. We simply demand that he take his place as a man and maintain it. If he falls in this we will batter him to pieces. We do not believe he will ever become a contemptible slander and sneak as his prince and popements intimate. Is the Press Bureau serving its day and generation? Is it standing up for the right and the face and country within it was born to serve? Has it been given its life? My countryman, look at the work he is doing. Some work will be done too.

One of the immediate results of the recent visit of the National Negro Business League is the tremendous effect that it has had upon the fathers and mothers in this western section in looking forward to the future of their sons and daughters. Never before in the history of the West was the Negro so astounded to the absolute necessity of "making an inch of progress in doing things rather than a yard of complaint in the oozing." The Negro industrial schools this coming year will have a decided gain in students attending firm excess of previous years, and everywhere there is developing new life and awakened energy in getting tangible, telling, listing results, worked out for the good of the race. The teachers who have been doing Extension work for the Western University returned last week and report a glowing outlook for the coming School year. Rev. E. R. Vaughan visited the rich sections of Indian Territory and Oklahoma, where Negro own scores of farms, banks and whole towns, securing many new students. Prof. G. A.

They not only demonstrate successfully the capability, availability and urgent need of Negro young men and women being trained along business lines, but convinced and converted a host of the delegates, mothers and fathers that Western University is the very place for the manufacture of such talent. The sons of many delegates will attend there next year. Miss Hattle Ingram returned on Thursday after two weeks pleasant visit at Topeka.

Harris leaves a wife and six children the oldest eleven years and the youngest six months. It is a sad blow to Mrs. Harris, and the people of Fort Scott extend their sympathy to her. The remains were taken to Chepota for interment THEY ARE MOST RELIGIOUS Chinese Declared to Be by One Who Has Made a Study of Them. Has Made a Study of Them. How little the white man, especially the majority, of those of us who 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 Outing Their religion is a very part of themselves, accepted without discussion from birth. The verlest paper, from a worldly point of view, who lives on one of the hundreds of campans 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 anstiles, there is the one creed, of thousands of yeare standing to which a yield allegiance and to which all pin a faith that continues unto death incontrovertible. Now and again 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 farthest from "civilization" and the "converting" influence of conflicting white man creeds to be the most honorable and dependable. I mean this as no unkind reflection upon the Christian faith or upon the real, often, also, so ignorantly directed, of many good people ANSWER WAS BEFORE HIM. Query of Phillips Brooks That Seemed Unnecessary. It will not be difficult for Boston to recall the excitement caused some years since by an enterprising tailoring establishment known to fame for its important pregrounding of the question, "Do you wear panters which greeted the eye at every turn. When this furor of advertising was at its height, His lordship the Rt Rev. Mr Courtney, then but recently, created bishop of Halifax paid his first visit to his former home Boston, where for a number of years he had been rector of St Paul's Tremont street which post he had left for the higher dignity in Nova Scotia. He appeared on the street in the conventional dress of an English bishop, including the long black stockings and knee breeches. Thus attired he was met by the Rev. Phillips Brooks, who paused before him and gave attentively at the annual figure thus presented. The eyes of the distraught guished Boston clergyman traveled slowly down the street form of his late colleague in the ministry until they rested upon his rather extremities then, extending his hand he inquired solemnly: "Do you wear pants?"

A Texas editor who had been Landed a lemon by three of his subscribers sent each one of them a card bearing the following inscription: "To three of my delinquent subscribers. One of them said I will pay Saturday night if I live. He's dead. Another said, "See you tomorrow." He's blind. Still another said "I hope to pay you this week, or go to hell." He's gone." 1 THE people of Kansas and the great West who attended the National Business League consider it a rare treat to meet Mr. Emmett J. Scott, private secretary to Prof. Booker T. Washington. He is one of the most efficient and worthy young men of this country. He is business from start to finish and the people can see why Prof. Washington is so successful in the operation of his great institution. It is by surrounding himself with such men as Mr. Scott. Long live Mr. Scott and may his good work continue. We will advise our friend, Mr. Washington of Kansas City, Mo. to editor of the Rising Sun, to cease his urinary remarks concerning the better class of citizens of that city. If he continues his slanderous utterances that he has kept up for the last ninety days, he will have to be consigned to the mad house. Some of the leading people of Kansas City are considering very seriously whether he should before a court and adjudged for insanity. JOLA. KANS. Rev.

Mrs. Mary Smith departed this life Saturday August 1 her death being caused by poison taken by mistletoe, being sick only about 2 hours.

THE MAYOR OF BROOKLYN L. JONES, of Chicago, vice president of the Black Diamond Development Co., was in attendance on the National Negro Business League, and while here mixed a little business with pleasure by taking a party of eighteen or twenty men down to Chanute to inspect the company's oil and gas lands. A reporter approached Mr. Jones en route to the train, and upon questioning him he said: "I know that you are looking for an extensive interview on oil and gas, but I haven't the time to talk. But you might tell the people that I am taking these men down in God's section of Kansas to inspect the rich deposits of oil and gas gushing from wells owned and controlled by the Black Diamond Co. We are sinking new wells daily, and each find seems Continued from Page 1 in the Association-in fact he has Nick Chiles skinned a country block. As he is not ing Fred Moore what he thought running the Press Ass in and it in on the Business League, he furnished the conversation for fourteen lectures at a private picnic at Vinewood park Kansas always has a warm welcome for Will Duncan and he certainly enjoys himself when he lands among home folks. With the newspaper boys he stands at high and for the magnificent manner in which he has conducted the affairs of the Association he was unanimously chosen president for the third time, an honor that had never been bestowed upon any of his predecessors. At present Mr. Duncan is not connected with any paper except as a stockholder. He is arranging to start a great state paper at his home in Colorado Springs, and it will no doubt be one of the strongest and best journals ever offered the reading public. What is medicine for? To cure you, if sick, you say. But one medicine will not cure every kind of sickness, because different medicines act on different parts of the body. One medicine goes to the liver, another to the spine, Wine of Cardul to the womanly organs. So that is why better It is a great chance for the Negro to get in on the ground floor and make himself independent The stock is very limited, and those desiring to get in had better purchase now." Mr. Jones' statement is correct to the letter. It is a golden opportunity, and a dollar invested with the Black Diamond Co., will earn two--no way to lose—the stuff is being consumed daily. These shares are being sold in order to put in a more extensive pipe line which will double the sales of the out-put. A large number of Topekans are acting wise and taking advantage of this excellent opportunity.

This was indeed the most harmless and business meeting we have ever had. A large attendance of representatives and Past Chancellors greeted us. Peace and harmony prevailed throughout the entire session. Much important business was transacted. The endowment department shows a neat increase over last year, numerically and financially. The important feature of the Grand Lodge was the excellent reports of the Grand Lodge officers and representatives. The Grand Court of Calarthe surpassed by far all former members. Much has been accomplished through the untiring effort and noble work of Mrs M. Matley, the grand Worthy counselor. The reports showed the department in a progressive state. Mrs M. Matley was elected Worthy counselor.
