That Senators like Works and Var- daman should have eppored the adop- tion of the Stone resolution indorsing the action of President Wilson in se vering diplomatic relatione with Ger. | many must be accepted as a matter of course. The President was defend ing the honor ahd dignity of the . United States and upholding the laws of nations, It was inevitable that the crack-brains should line wp on the other sido of the questa. What have they to do with the hener and dignity of the United States er with the laws of nations? x We do not impeach the patriotiam of the Senators who opposed the Stone resolution. They are probebly patriotic Americans accoréing-te thor dim and flickering lights. What thay lack is not so much patriotien an brains. An private citizens 4 could be tolerated. As United Sta senators it makes one shudder to titek that the destiny of the republic fm great crisis could, in the smallest measure, depend upon men of a Bete sanity of judgment and so little sense of national responsibility. 3 Tho Post-Dispatch Is as little oa Jingo ns anybody, but it believes tit the opinions of the American peopie were voiced in the United States sem, ate yesterday Ly Senators who voted to approve the President's achoes and who ere ready to maintain the sovereign rights of the United States If those rights ure wantonly attacked.

Now this is commendable and she says that she is always proud to support the Plaindealer, and that she thinks the race should support it and pay for it. This noble woman is Mrs. Mary Marshall, who is a widow, and if she can pay her subscription why cannot others? May the Lord bless this exemplary woman and may she live for years to continue her exemplary work. She is honest, and we are always glad to herald to the world such actions. We are under deep obligations to her for this money, as the Plaindealer is very much in need of money and this came at an opportune time. JUNCTION CITY, KAN.

To Whom It May Concern: This is to say that Rev. W. T. Nickerson of Kansas City, Kan., is one of the strongest preachers of our race. He is both in scriptorian and a logician. He also thoroughly understands the weaknesses of his race. He has just finished a four week's meeting for the A. M. E. church here and it is generally agreed by all concerned that he accomplished more in arousing the people against the present day evils, such as the dance, card playing and movie shows, than anyone that has ever been in our community. I wish he had access to every pulpit in the conference. Yours truly. O. J. BUCKHARDT. Lincoln, Neb. LINCOLN, Neo. KANSAS CITY, KAN., AND KANSAS CITY, MO.

Obituary of Andrew Franklin Little Job, the Poetic Philosopher of the Patrarchial age, did truly say, "Man that is born of woman is of few days and full of trouble. He cometh forth like a flower, and is cut down; he fleeth also as a shadow, and continueth not." Although the fact of death is as old as the human race, and we know that it will surely come, yet, from the human standpoint, he is an unwelcome visitor. He has made his visits in every age of the world—from Abel, the first to fall by his arrow, down to the present time. Nor has death been a respector of persons or conditions—the rich, the poor, the great, the small, the prepared and the uneprepared—have alike succumbed to his mandate. In every stage of life and in every clime, none have answered him nay. He comes in various forms, and at a time when we think: Death rides in every breeze, And lurks in every flower; Each season has its own disease, Its peril every hour. Nor is there a time in life when we are at a safe distance from him; for as soon as we begin to live, we begin to die. Step by step, side by side, he goes with us up the sunny slope and down the incline we call life. Why should man's high aspiring mind Burn in him with so proud a breath; When all his haughty views can find In this world lead to death? In this world lead to death? The fair, the brave, the vain, the The fair, the brave, the vain, the wise, The rich, the poor, the great, the small. Are each but worms' anatomies. To strew his quiet hall. Mr. Andrew Franklin Little was born in the state of Arkansas March 31, 1876, and died Feb. 29, 1917, at the age of 17 years and 11 months. He grew to manhood in the state of his nativity, and at the age of twenty-five he was united in marriage in the city of Fayetteville, Ark., to Miss Alice Warren. To this union five children were born, one of whom died in infancy. About eight years ago he moved to this city and worked almost continuously in the employ of the M K & T Railway company. He was a man quiet and unassuming, honest in his dealings, and one who provided for his family to the best of his ability. He will be missed by many. He met with an accident Saturday, Feb 21 which resulted in his death. Although suffering intense pain, he bore it without a murmur until the end came. He leaves to mourn his death a wife, Mrs. Alice Little, three daughters, and a son, between the ages of 1 and 12; his father and mother, Mr. Kie Little and Mrs. Amanda Little, two sisters and two brothers, other relatives and a host of friends. He was a member in good and regular standing of the U. R. P. May God in His mercy grant peace to his ashes. NOTICE OF APPOINTMENT.

Sunday morning Rev. Hill asked for one hundred dollars. There were small ripples of laughter, as though some thought the request preposterous; but when the count was made $115.35 had been collected. This is said to be the largest spontaneous offering ever received in Topeka in the history of colored churches. It was nothing less than a march to see the pleasing manner of Dr. Hill in his money getting. There is a golden smile that he wears that simply can't be resisted. Upwards of forty persons gave $1 each. This Sunday will be a day of spiritual awakening. Morning, "The Son of Man"; evening, "Keys and Keyholes." Hear these two sermons if you are a student of the Bible—why Christ called Himself "Son of Man," while He is the Son of God, has perplexed theologians the world over. Hear about it Sunday in the way that Dr. Hill puts truths before his hearers. The Pope says that he is the rightful successor to Peter, and, as the keys were given to Peter, they have descended to him. Hear the truth of this great doctrine Sunday night at Shuhul. Come early to get a good seat. Sewing circle met with Mrs. Sims on West Tenth street. Pastor's Aid met with Mrs. Beulah Madison on Buchanan street. Dr. and Mrs. J. T. Hill were dinner guests at the home of Mr. Emery and Mrs. Kate Shaughter. 1215 Lane street, Wednesday evening at 6 o'clock. Dame rumor has it that Dr. Hill, the money wizard, was able to get $1 out of John Page, Jr., and a dollar also from Allot Connelly, for the church Sunday night. It seems also that on the Sunday before he was able to extract 25 cents from Viv Washington. We cannot touch for the truthfulness of these accounts, but will open our columns to anyone who knows and will give us the data. Look for the truth next week. Nick Chiles was appealed to for a dollar, but report has it that Nick said that he would give, but those present owed him so much he could not respond. Pay up, friends, and don't embarrass the editor. BROWN CHAPEL We are still alive over at Brown chapel. Each member is putting forth every effort to make our church a success.
