The last sad rites performed over the remains of Bishop Grant of the Fifth Episcopal district took place Thursday of last week in Kansas City at Allen Chapel, the Rev. W H. Peck, pastor. The Lady lay in state at the church Wednesday and the Scottish Rite Mass performed their ceremony at low twelve. The services at the church began at 11:30 and lasted until 10. The lower part of the church was reserved for the ministers, lodgers and mourners who were looked after by Mr. George Tectars, one of the church ministers. The mourners came first and were seated opposite the casket which was of black broad cloth met the head and that large silver candles. It was mounted with an emblem of the Holy Bible, square and compass opened at the Twelfth chapter of Ecclesiastes. It was made of silver on which was engraved two verses that could be read several pages away --- TOPEKA, KANSAS, FRIDAY MORNING, FEBRUARY 3, 1911. Kansas should go slow in the matter of law making, and not be lead off by the bewildered cries of some "skyrocket" statesman. Our enterprises are prosperous, the people happy and earning a wage out of which they can save some for a rainy day. But should laws be enacted that will hinder a corporations in conducting business, it would destroy our present happy state of affairs and fill the streets and highways with a mob of ball starved men, women and children. Why pick on the corporations? These combinations of wealth have made Kansas blossom as the rose and brought peace, happiness and contentment to a land that was struck with poverty--he laughing stock of the world. A law so far reaching as to reduce the earnings of any concern or tax them unjustly means that wages will be reduced in accordance with same, thus bringing misery and suffering upon the masses. Kansas has a few men that could not make themselves seen or heard until they yelled "trusts. corporations, robbers," etc. This class are a menace to the peace and happiness of the people and they should never be given a position where the people's interests are involved. It is believed and hoped that the good, sane, sound, sensible men are in the majority in the present legislature and that they will kill any fool legislation. Kansas owes everything to corporations and she should treat these concerns fairly They are not seeking anything unreasonable and that they be given a square deal should be the demand of everybody. An excellent example of the good derived from corporations is visible in the abundance of prosperity brought about through the great Santa Fe, Union Pacific, Armour & Co., Charles Wolff Packing Co., Crosby Milling Co., and hundreds of other concerns that dump millions into the hands of Kansas wage earners and producers every year. These concerns are the life blood of Kansas and unjust laws against them will be severely felt by the masses. Let freight rates be increased and enable the roads to earn sufficient profit to raise the wages of the employees. Every railroad employee is in favor of increasing the rate as they know full well that they cannot hope for better pay if the companies are not permitted to easn it. Treat corporations the same as the individual who conducts a business They deserve the same treatment and once this is done no one will have cause for complaint. Dr. Booker T. Washington came direct from Tuskegee to be present at the funeral. He cologized the greatness of Bishop Grant by telling how he stood with the head of the nation at the last meeting of the Jeans fund committee at White House. All was rested around the table and when president Taft came in he found one chair vacant. He asked, "where is Bishop Grant?" He was informed that the Bishop was coronally all. He called his stenographer dictated a telegram to the Bishop expressing sorrow and hope for recovery and asked the board to sign it. He was a bright sign in this. A man born alive in an ox cart had been to fame and honored by the highest official of the nation is something that should make his feel proud. Continuing the speaker said that he will live in the future as in the past. He was a friend of Tuskegee where the student body was well and the faculty was always glad to welcome him. He was proud of the white man as well as the colored and we should feel proud of a nation that could We want to see Kansas remain in the same column along with New York and other states, and in order to do this our law makers must defeat any measure that will work a hardship in concerns that spend large sums in Kansas daily. Kansas legislation causes panics and brings misery and suffering. Be sane and pass laws that will bring corporations and the people closer together. Make each feel that the other is his friend and that both must go up or down together. Get together and pass laws that will be helpful to corporation and individual alike. NUMBER 5 Legislature to Do? Dr. Beal is one of the brightest minds in the district. Nelsen C. Crows representing the laity of the Faith district said the Bishop was a friend to the young men. He always tried to do something to uplift the young men who tried to do something. He said that it was Bishop Grant who went before the Missouri legislature and assisted in stopping the passage of the Jim Crow car law. The speaker said that Fredaick Douglass, Abram Grant and Booker T. Washington were three greatest men of the 19th century and that he doubted if the 20th would be able to reproduce their equals. Bishop Derrick said when the religious historian will speak of this days occurrence they will say that he fills a hero's grave immortal and the garland that bedecks his tomb will be watered with the tears of a great people and a sorrowing church and watched over by Him in whose sight the just and good are ever precious. When Dr. B. F. Watson sang, "Home at Last" he had to stop to prevent an outburst of emotion which was beginning to rise. The songs of Reva Peck, Gregg and Miss Ethee Grant, Gerald Tyler and Western U. Glee club wore sweet and appropriate. After the services the remains were reviewed for the benefit of those who came from out of town. The hearse was drawn by four fine black horses heavily draped each led by four plumed knights of Emanuel Commandry and four mounted knights of the same order followed by twenty carriages, ministers, officers of the church and friends The body of Mrs. Grant was removed from the receiving vault to the undertaking parlors of Gleed and Jones where it was viewed by her sister and a few intimate friends. The two bodies were taken over the M. K. and P. His body to San Antonio to be buried beside his first wife and son. Her body was left at Waco and buried in her sister's family plot as she did not want to be buried in Galveston where her first husband, Bishop Armstrong lies as she had a horror for the place ever since the flood. Bishop Grant's first wife and second wife were sisters. Bishop Sneller, Parks and Tyne commanded the remains to the South and said also Prof. Kealing and Rev. Peck, Ransom, Edwards, Wood, Bryant and Mrs. Drohman. The Bishop's funeral was held Sunday and Mrs. Grant's the following Monday at Waco. The will is an interesting document. She also made one which will appear soon as it is filed. OBITUARY OF BISHOP ABRAHAM GRANT. On 14th March, 1911, by Pro H. I.

Ralph Faxon, the new president, will be on the string line for a solid Republican party in Kansas LET every colored man read the late Bishop Grant's will. In it he will find food for thought. He was not selfish. After toiling and saving what he had received from a generous public was returned to them, that it might be more useful to them it am it had been to him. Let all who profit by this show their appreciation by not burying it but improve it by doing more than treasure it up. There are so many men of the race who live for themselves and expect the public to pay them homage. It will not be done unless they exemplify the works of Bishop Grant. Rev. Hurse of Washington, D.C. is the executor. He is a fine man, who will be one of the next bishops, and either he or Bishop Lee ought to take Bishop Grant's place in the West. We need a man who can at least follow in the footsteps of Bishop Grant; either of these two gentlemen will do it. Let us have a stronger and a more substantial ministry. Let the young men take the front. We need them. Merchants' National Bank in New Quarters! On Monday, February 5th, the Merchants National Bank will occupy their new home in the New England Building.

Funeral of Bishop Grant Continued from Page 1 end of him whose clay lies before us swaddled in the sober circumstance of death whose only office among men is to measure the size of a life. Abraham Grant was born near Lake City, Florida, while his mother, a slave, was being conveyed to the home of a new owner in an ox cart. This was in 1848. Iliis childhood and youth were in no way different from those of his condition, save that he was recognized as a valuable piece of property because of his willingness and capacity to accomplish what he was set to do. But his unfettered soul fretted at servitude and he escaped from the task-master during the Civil War, passing very near, in his flight, the present site of Tuskegee, where in after years a kindred spirit and a close knit friend was to erect the greatest monument ever raised by the genius of our race. Returning to Florida after the war, Abraham Grant successively worked in Lake City and as a steward in the hotels of Jacksonville. Meanwhile his life was being guided into the Christian ministry of the African Methodist Episcopal Church. Licensed to preach in the Mt. Zion A. M. J. Church in Jacksonville, Florida, he was ordained older by Bishop T. M. D Ward and from that time dates a service for God and man that can hardly be paralleled in the annuals of our clergy. Abundant spiritual results followed from the first, for the Pentecostal tongue of ame was youthsafed him and to preach was his meat and drink. Redeemed souls sprang up by the hundred as, like a Whitefield in bronze, he stalked through the sandy paths and tangled woods of his native State proclaiming "The Kingdom of heaven is at hand." He pastored several churches in the State, but it was at Tallahassee, the capital, that his full caliber as a church builder and administrator appears. The church he built still stands among the best examples of a neat and capacious temple in the State. But he was a man of affairs in temporal things as well as a Boonerges in spiritual ones. He built churches and paid debts wherever he went and so active was he in working for the civic and political rights of his people that among men like Wall, Long, Armstrong, Denham, Scott and Lee whose force, wisdom and manhood have won a reluctant page in the history of Floridian statesmanship, Abraham Grant was both motor and brake, recognized as their safest counsellor and bravest executor. Never seeking political position for himself, he held but one office under the government; but it was his delight to place others. He never forsook a friend and never pursued an enemy in all those dark and strenuous days when the passing of President Grant marked the suppression of civil liberty among the black citizens of the South. Bishop T. M. D. Ward, under whose administration in Florida Lubber Grant became a leading force in his Conference, on taking charge of Texas the next quadramnum, sent for the young ecclesiastical giant and stationed him at San Antonio, then in an almost disorganized condition, owing to internal dissensions. In less than two years, it was the largest, most spiritual, most active and most harmonious church in the State. Hisodias, Dr. Grant had become a mighty civic force in the city of San Antonio, relief upon the Mayor and leading anker for advice in all matters touching the interests of the race. Up to this time the African Methodist Church had never been able to gain a strong foot hold in Austin, the capital of Texas. Worshiping in an lightly old shanty, it was the by word of the city. Bishop Ward sent Dr. Grant there to work a transformation. Like many his wonderful organizing power corresponded every foe he befelt in discontent to thirsty and people in all of nominations, he had to beat the new power that had appeared among them. He soon exercised the same away and induce among both races which marked his career in San Antonio and Governor and Mayor were proud to call him friend. He erected a beautiful brick church on the site of the old structure, which still stands a model of beauty and convenience unsuppressed even today by any of the numerous buildings since erected in the state. His leadership was at once felt and generally a knowledgeful for his large heart and never failing sympathy for his dierential brethren distressed only and make them follow him gladly. By this time his name had over grown state or conference limits and he had be come a connectional star whose rise above the horizon challenged the attention of the whole church. In 1888, at Indianapolis, Indiana, he was elected Bishop amid mingled expectation and misgiving, for, however potent he may have been in the lower station, it had yet to be proved that he could fill the new mould calling for a higher set of qualities. He had had only limited school opportunities, and yet he was now called to a seat made scholarly by Payne, Brown and Dickerson; he had never seen a college, yet he was to assist in guiding the destinies of Wilberforce, Paul Quinn, Allen, Morris Brown and Western Universities; he was a simple Gospel preacher, yet he was now to engage the minds and move the hearts of doctors and professors; he had never lived out of the South, yet Europe and Africa were to hear and sit in judgment on his worth; full of the emotionalism and cheer of his race, he was to convince the coll reason and cynical contempt of the pale faced masters of thought and thing. Well might his dearest friend join with him in exclaiming: "Who is sufficient for these things? Yet a remarkable common sense met the trained minds of the critics and logicians and made them his admiring friends. The native dignity of the full orbed man overcame initial contempt and made the wealthy and the learned receive him as a peer. His full-blooded geniusity melted the cynic to friend-ship and his frutful observation gave into the keeping of a faithful memory a fund of knowledge that made him a teacher of university faculties and students. In short, the world found he filled the bill and yielded him the homage true greatness only can compel. He loved his fellow-man and won the ir answering love. Race with him meant nothing, humanity meant all. This is why, though he was schooled in slavery, no man ever felt masterful in his presence; he himself was a master and, like Acop in bondage, he ruled those he seemed to serve. No one was so poor but that Bishop Grant made him feel that he was much a man as himself; no preacher was so humble and so near the foot of promotion's ladder but that Bishop Grant felt his burden and gave concern to his wife and little ones. He was clear in his perception, prompt in action and gave his confidence to the man who could do things. He hated a lie and despised dishonesty or deceit. His indignation was withering, because his approval was so nourishing. Envy of another's success was a thing he could not even comprehend. Nothing pleased him more than to hear of the triumph of some young man, or to watch the growth of some great enterprise managed by a number of his race. For that reason he early linked every sympathy in his soul and every endeavor of his hand to Tuskegee and its creator and to both he was to his latest breath. Since his election to the episcopacy in 1888, he has successively presided over six Districts, viz: the 9th, comprising Texas, Louisiana, and California and Puget Sound; the 6th, comprising Georgia and Alabama; the 1st, comprising Philadelphia, New York, North East and New Jersey; the 4th, comprising Indiana, Illinois, Iowa, Michigan, Ontario and the North West; the 5th, two terms, comprising Missouri, Kansas, the Rocky Mountain States and the Pacific Coast. Besides, he killed out Bishop Embry's time in the 7th district, comprising South Carolina and Florida. In all those districts he greatly ad- vanced the educational and missionary interests, leaving harmony among the men and a high spiritual title in every church, and largely increased collection for general funds. But despite his success as a money taker, he always put the conversion of souls first, and he hardly ever preached without receiving some one into the church. His zeal with without abre- ment and thanks owe their con- tinuation with Christ to his tonicning appeals. As explaining 14 methods he would sometimes say "I have lived in two gon- cuses and an a pruduct of both." While making its pretentions to being a literary man, well know the value of publicity and when Bishop Wayman's death stopped to weekly 'Notes by the Way' in the Christian Receiver, Bishop Grant announced his intention to continue them, which he did to the dulgh and dilution of a host of readers. He published the Devoness' Manual, a very helpful pocket companion setting forth the scriptural origin of the ode and its duties. He was a constant worker to bring about furious relations between the two races, once held in the South where the nation could unrest. At on time Governor Irwin, of Texas, ordered a special train to send Dr. Grant to the seat of a threatenl race rift to settle it Governor James Hogg, of Texas, con- fided in him without reservation; while since his residence in Kansas, Governors Stanley, Hoeh and Stubbs have exhibited for him profound respect and admiration. Four Presidents of the United States have given him their confidence and friendship—Cleveland, McKinley, Roosevelt and Taft; while among foreign statesmen, Mr. Gladstone entertained him at Howarden Castle, in England. In an age of form and show, he was a strong opponent of ritualism and or robes; in a time of materialism, he was absolutely untouched by money greed or graft. He was a strict observer of the law, and careful of the rights of his men. Moreover, he was a constructor and not a dreamer. Two illustrations arise the Church Extension Society, now such a valuable arm of the Church, who brought into being by his Napoleon action. After the enactment of the law by the General Conference in Philadelphia, 1802, the matter lay dormant till Bishop Grant took up the matter with the Bishops Council and offered to put the Society into operation wit out expense to the church if they would let him choose the secretary, who would serve without salary till the General Conference ensuing. Consent was given; Bishop Grant organized the Society, becoming its first President; presented its claims to his conferences in the sixth district and secured their consent to appropriate 8 per cent of the Dollar money to the support of the needy churches, which action was enacted into law by the General Conference of 1806. He remained President until 1904, when assured it was out of danger, he turned it over with liabilities $.....; assets $.....; having begun with nothing Similarly, the Connectional Preacher's Anid Society came into existence at the session of the Philadelphia Conference held at Reading, Pa. under Bishop Grant, the secretary being appointed subsequently without salary. This action followed the General Conference in Wilmington N.C., in 1890. The Bishop has been president of the Financial Board twice which place he held at his demise. He has served as president of the Trustee Boards of Paul Quinn College, Morris Brown, Allen, Wilberforce and Western University, and visited Arfica January, 1899, for the Missionary Department expending less than the amount appropriated for expenses and returning the balance to the treasury. The sum given him was $.....; the amount returned was $..... He was delegate to the next Exumenical Conference called to meet in Toronto, Canada, next September, and was appointed to preside at one of the sessions. He was on the bed of his final illness, when the news reached him and for the first and last time expressed a desire that he might live to sway the gavel over world Methodism; but he soon dismissed the pleasant dream and bowed in calm submission to the will of God. He was a Phythian, an Old Fellow and a 33° Mason, having been Grand Master of the last named during his resilience in Texas. He was a member of the James Slater Fund Board for the education of Negroes in the South, being associated in this position with such men as President Taft, Dr. Barker T. Washington, Andrew Carnegie, H. B. Frasell, George Foster Petbody, R. R. Moton, A. L. Smith, Belton Gilbreath, J. C. Napier, Dr. J. H. Dillard and Mitchell. There his counsels were highly valued and their pongnant grief at his passing is expressed at those obsequies by telegrams that will be read. Two of the last things he did before he waved too weak for business were the completion of the purchase of a Home for Worn out preachers, at Colorado Springs, Ct., and the making of a monument of John Brown, of Harper's Perry Sine, for erection on the campus of Western university, Kansas City, Kansas. His statue was made in Italy and is now on its way to America. He had planned to have it installed next June, at Commencement, but when he found he was sinking so fast he expressed a wish to have it done as soon as the statue arrived so that he might see it before death closed his eyes. His pleasure was doused him He was twice married both times being happily married to noble Christian women whose compary lives aided his work and made ideal his home. He survived them both. He was confined to his house nearly three months before his death, steadily growing weaker, but always cheerful al ways resigned, always thoughtful of others, especially of that afflicted wife for whom his great heart went out in ever constant and thoughtful tenderness. He arranged for his own funeral to the minuteest details, and requested that his remains be laid to rest in the Old Fellows' cemetery in San Antonio, Texas. As he neared the river, he reluctantly surrendered the reins of episcopal duty into the hands of his life time friend, Bishop Parks; made his will; dismissed all earthly affairs and waited for the messenger of the Lord. Suddenly, without warning, the beloved partner of his life, for whose comfort he had made ample provision, was snatched from his side by death after an attack of less than an hour. Then it was that he who had borne racking pains and weariness unspeakable without a murmur, broke down and while he lay silent upon his pillow the hot tears slipped from beneath his closed cyclids unhindered. Quickly rallying, however, he gave instructions for every detail of the funeral, being heard to remark, "Ransom, did you ever see such a turn? I expected to go first, and now she goes before me." To the last, he was careful and methodical, putting his house in order. He was grateful for the constant attention of his friends, but he insisted that all should see that they need no regular duty, saying, "Never mind about me, there are others who don't get half this attention." A few days before his death, he said, "Well, it can't be long. I have never claimed to be anything but a summer saved by grace. I have done the best I could with the opportunity and advantages I have had; I have believed in and preached an immediate solution and an instantaneous gospel." Bishop Lee arrived on Saturday, January 14, and administered the last sacrament. Bishop Grant sent for his wife to come in and join him. It was well, for in six hours afterward, she was corpse. On Saturday night, just one week later as he lay suffering from a terrible pain in his right lung, he cried: "Lift me up, Ransom; I am dying." Sunday morning found him breathing stetorously and unable to give any sign of recognition save a pressure of the hand. Surrounded by his faithful friends, nurses and doctor, he continued to cbb, till suddenly, through the open window, a beam of sunlight fell across his bed and lifting his eyes to meet it—while church bells began to ring out for the Sunday morning services, he gave a gentle gasp and was gone. The clocks of earth marked 10:15; Heaven claimed its own and loved ones on the other side chided him for having remained away so long. At the Tomb in Texas (By H. M. Gilhean.) Chisolm News Service. Denison, Texas.—Sunday afternoon at San Antonio, Texas, the body of Bishop Abraham Grant was laid to rest in the Old Fellows cemetery. The floral offerings from all parts of the United States made of the grave a very flower garden, each separate flower seeming to rival the others in beauty and in size, and the fragrance of all combining and ascending to the heavens, perfuming the path upon which the soul of the devoted bishop rose as it went into the kingdom of its Master. If the soul of man ever clings to the body, then the soul of Bishop Grant lingered to give a hit like book to his cold corpse. For surely there remained in that majestic body until it was lowered out of the sight of the hundreds who were eager to gaze upon it, some connection with the God power that gave it force and inspiration through life and a kingly appearance in death. San Antonio is a city of beautiful flowers, and in the midst of winter delightful weather grants the thousands of tourists. But Sunday morning no man seemed to be in mounting and the clouds cast a pull of glom that made the Sabbath moon seem indeed a solitary. As the day advanced and the tunnel of hour drew near, the sun seemed to have consented to send forth its most beautiful rays and its warmth, in order that the day upon which the body of the deceased bishop was consigned to Mother Earth, might be one of vowing beauty and a fitting climax of a peaceful, sweet tempered life, made great through a supreme faith in God; and made a seared memory to his people by years of honest labor in their behalf. The funeral services were conduited by Bishop H. P. Pirkis, of Chicago, assisted by Rev R. B. Jenkins, of Louis. Bause of their length the services were begun at eleven o'clock, the holy having had in state at St. James church since the day previous. This church is now pretoiled by Dr. G. B. Young but was pastor formerly by Bishop Grant when he resided in San Antonio. Continued on Page 8 TOPEKA NEWS. Mr. Jake Morrison is reported seriously ill at his home.
