Read what Dr. W. L. Taylor, one of the greatest financiers of our race, who is the president of the True Reformer's Bank, Richmond, Va., has to say about the great success of the Black Diamond Development Company. Dr. W. L. Taylor, who is the Grand Worthy Master and Ruler of the True Reformers, an order that numbers 70,000 members, states as follows: I have personally visited the Black Diamond Development Company's gas and oil fields and closely observed its surroundings, and from every indication I believe that the project is worthy of patronage of incorporating members of the race. I have found out that the statement of the Vice President, L. L. Jones, and the other data to be held. They have right wholly with me at 21.25.2010. are marketing the game. Now, when such men as Dr. W. L. Taylor, of Richmond, Va., and Messrs. Sandy W. Trice and George E. Henderson, of Chicago, also Mr. H. Jones, of Pittsburg, Pa., go and see for themselves what we have on the field, and make such a statement as they have made, it must be true that this is one of the colored enterprises that has made a success. Mr. L. L. Jones and the other directors of this company deserves great credit for the manner in which they have conducted affairs and made this company a great success. The large pipe line will be completed Sept. 10th. There are a few more shares for sale, and all who are to make a good investment ought to identify themselves with this great line. For further information see on write Mr. L. L. Jones.

Other subscribers include people in the various professions who are well known in Washington Those living in the neighbourhood say they will not buy the house from the colored man under any circumstances.

Mrs Fields was born in Springfield, Mo., March 4, 1865, and was married to W. W. Fields Sept. 22, 1886. In her eighteenth year she was converted into the faith of Christ and lived a Christian life the remainder of her days. Bradley a husband, two sons, a mother and a sister. Mrs. Fields leaves other relatives and a host of friends to mourn their loss. The beautiful funeral services were conducted by Rev. E. D Abbott, of the African Methodist Church of Chanute. The casket was covered and the house was filled with beautiful floral offerings from the Blue Eagle lodge, the A. M. I. church of Chanute, the Golden Tabernacle, and the U. B. Band of Iola and other friends. Touchingly emblematic of Sister Pieln's life is, her favorite verse from the Scriptures "I will bless the Lord at all times, his prais shall continuously be in my mouth." Truly through life's trials and victories His praise was continually in her mouth. Life's work well done, Life's rate well run Life's crown well won, Now comes rest."

There is a growing demand for young men who fit themselves, by completing the Architectural Drawing Course, to make plans for houses, and who can do the work required in Electrical Engineering. Every effort is being made to make these courses more helpful than ever before. BOOKER T. WASHINGTON, Principal TINKLGEE INSTITUTE, ALA.

Alex John, son opened their doors and gave them a warm welcome and said they were all gentlemen. The whites like to see a Negro dance and sing, but Oh, my! when it comes to sit at the same table or sleep in the same bed, they think it is terrible.

THEY ARE MOST PRIJIGIOUS. Chinese Declared to Be by One Who H . Made a Study of Them. How do the white man especially the man of those of us who go forth a missionary of the Chinese character! To the element 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 camps floating before Canson, 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 abstractions there is the one creed, of thousands of years standing to which all will allege 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 father who was not the less trustworthy. In a considerable perforation with many kinds of natives in the wilderness of their own country, I have invariably found the one farthest from civilization and the "converting" influence of conflicting white man creeds, to be the most honorable and dependable. I mean this as no verbal reflection upon the Christian faith or upon the zeal, often, alas, so ignorantly directed of many good people. Dictionary for Directory.

WALLER IS DEAD Word was received here yesterday that Capt. John L. Waller, formerly of Kansas, had passed away at his home in Yonkers, N. Y. He was one of the most widely known Negroes in the West, and during his residence in this state he was a leader in politics, having served as minister to Haiti at the Harrison administration. Capt. Waller's career was not the most romantic of any man that ever lived in Kansas which we will publish in this report week. A host of colored and white friends sympathize with the bereaved family. State Y. M. C. A. Convention. By men who have attended the State Y. M. C. A convention in the past, declared the 1st Annual Convention held in Fulton Mo. Oct. 10, 1879, in successful in the state's town. On the two hundred and sixty-three members of the dance, only seven were invited to represent the books of letter on City and State and the city Association of St. Louis and Ivan City. Let be said to the credit of the different Associations, that they ordained, who through their many and Christian character, were able to work out my freedom that might arise in a state where the sections are safe with southern sentiment. The program of the convention included the names of men of national reputation, in many walks of life. The colored people of Fulton are prosperous, cultured and laying their homes. They took pride in entertaining the colored delegates. WINFILLD.

It happened that the negro farmer who was successful in homesteading a chin planted cotton and his white neighbor planted corn and wheat. It was further north than cotton had ever been successfully grown before but the negro knew how and the result is that Oklahoma has a greater diversity of steps than any other cotton growing state. It soon became evident in Oklahoma, however that the main alone could not harvest the ever increasing cotton crop on the territory. It was necessary to obtain additional labor, and attempt begin to educate the Indian to this kind of work. In the extreme southern countries of the territory where the race mission has always been a prominent question Mexicans were brought in frequently to do the picking instead of the negroes for it was feared that the negroes might remain permanently and colonize the Mexicans they could ship out of the country when the crop was picked. And finally the Indians were obliged to the list. of the farm and a private hog and language to the notoriously fields close to their homes for work at a time. It is not an unusual sight to see a live barn art with red from six to twelve children of all ages and ages working side by side in the same cotton field, their earnings going into a common fund that will stop the entire found's operating the winter months. The cotton grower has found that it is cheaper to feed the more picker than any other. He draws the same wages but it is not necessary to provide for him so expensive a diet. YALP, KAN Rev. R. C.

Mr. Patey to the stock list Mrs. Miner to the stock list The Advantages of Mental Development. At a Moss and Lateray Program teacher at the Second Reprint her a Family evening at Manhattan, Mr Mue, a student of the Agricultural College read the following paper In these days of a common living we find that mental labor making faster progress in the way of advertisement than manual labor. This statement can be proved in a great many ways in every field of work, not in the welfare of our race. It lets us remember that manual labor is not in the least degrading as long as it remains word with honest pay. There is a certain dignity in labor which is many minds cannot perceive. books for the sole purpose of training a living without a hard manual labor and bring out of them nothing for a nation to advantage of bring their knowledge to the light and view of others. During the last quarter of a century a great deal has been done by our people in the line of church and Sunday School work then the means of education. Education has a tendency to house intellect, create enterprise and to broaden and deepen the mental powers. There is no in situation of any kind that can ever hope to rise to the highest standard of excellence unless intellect, enterprise and good, sound judgment are utilized to the fullest extent. The only way to gain these qualities is to develop the mind by land mental training. According to a science called psychology the entire body is controlled by centers which are located in the brain. These centers control habits, morals, manners and character. If these centres are developed in the brain by hard study and concentration of the mind, who can doubt that they will be manifest outwardly in the form of intelligence? Now let us turn our attention to the race question, which is beyond doubt the most difficult that any person have been compelled to face. The only possible hope for the Negro race is to live with good moral principles, develop his mental powers and cultivate habits of industry. It is necessary that we deal liberally with educational matters and thereby gain intelligence which at the present time seems to be the only thing that will place in the recognition of the white man. As long as we are known to be indolent and unlearned we are sure to be held down by those who are greater in power than we are, and for this reason we should gain intelligence will enable us to see our condition, and what is nobler and grander still, to better it. While we are holding this subject of mental development in our minds let us not forget that manual labor is in a measure just as important. The body as well as the mind should be developed physically by work and exercise. It can be readily seen that a strong mind can scarcely be a weak body. The mind should not be deped at the expense of the body. The financial that it is wrong to strive for wealth, but it is saying that it is wrong to cultivate a love for money. As we all know the salary of intellectual workers exceeds that of manual laborers. It might be well to state the comparison by saying it is four to one. Of all these advantages obtained through mental power and application, character and intellect stand first. These two types are absolutely essential to our prosperity when we be satisfied by FINCA NOTE A daughter was born in Mr. and M. Sanders Smith and is a small there is an since the snow.

The occasion of commencement by the ladies of Missouri plotted for the night at Allen Chapel. A crowd of six hundred on the lawn, with people in the two houses attended by musical bells by the Western University. Lord Palmer, a number of its local society and all condition by its strong enthusiasm, was attended with inspirational excellence in tations in elocation by Melanie Fulls of Chicago and Mr. Proof, Griffin of Kansas University were invited with unusual skill and called forth mounted on scenery. In the oratorical contest the main event of the evening, the contestant top presenting Lincoln High School Kansas City, Mo., failed to make his appearance. The contestant from Summer High School, Kansas City, Kass Monzo Morgan, started off well, but in the middle of his oration forgot his selection and he gave up the effort. The contestant from Western University, William Ellister, delivered an eloquent speech on "America, the Paradise of the Negro," and at successive intervals brought forth tumultuous applause from his listeners. The decision, however, was denied to him by a trick of the judges, who were hissed unmercifully by the entire audience. This injustice, nevertheless, has made scores of new friends for Western University. Why Not? DO YOU NOT KNOW that the Knights of Pythias is the strongest and most progressive order of the age? The four departments of the order are as follows: SUBORDINATE LODGE: In this the members are united to care for and protect each other interested as well as in sickness and distress. UNIFORM RANK In this department our young men are receiving a military education which they can get in no other way, thus making them bet- ter and more useful citizens. LADIES COURT In this the wives, mothers, widows, daugeters and sis- ters of the Knights are united for the common pur- pose of life. ENDOWMENT In this department we are paying off thousands of dollars annually to widows and heirs of deceased Knights. IF THERE IS NO LODGE in your locality, confer with the Deputy Grand Chanc- eller, District or Ward, and send the Widows, and heirs of deceased Knights.
