COLORED SOLDIERS FEARED TEXAS MOB
Terror Stricken at the News a Mob Was Approaching, Infantrymen Fired on Houston.
Ran Antonio, Tez., Nov. 2.—Positive identification of three Negroes of the twenty-fourth infantry who participated in the riot at Houston August 23 last, which resulted in the death of twenty-two persons, was made his afternoon by Captain Bing Shickman of the Twenty-fourth infantry, testifying at the court martial trial of the sixty-three Negroes who are charged with murder, murder and rioting. The identification was made in connection with a detailed narration of eremia leading up to the rioting.
The three Negroes who were positively identified were Corp J. R. Hankins, Corp G. Brown and Pituate Ira Doria. They were among the defendants in the court room.
The shooting up of Houston, according to Capt. Shakerjian's testimony, was precipitated by the action of Policeman Sparks of Houston in abusing Corp. Chan. Baltimore of the twenty-fourth infantry when he arrested him in the streets of Houston on the afternoon preceding the night of the outbreak.
The trouble started Capt. Shakerjian testified, when Baltimore asked Policeman Sparks why he had arrested a Negro member of the Twenty-fourth infantry Baltimore, according to Shakerjian, said Sparks cursed him and told him it was none of his business. Baltimore then told Sparks that he was on guard duty and would have to report back to the commanding officer why the soldier had been arrested. To this, according to the witness, Sparks replied he did not have to tell "in bigger" and hit him on the head twice with his pistol.
Baltimore than ran down the street and into a house, while Sparka fired three shots after him. Baltimore took refuge under a bed. Sparka following, pulling him out and striking him twice more with his pistol. Baltimore was then taken to tell Meintime the report reached Camp Logan, where the Negro troops were stationed, that Baltimore had been shot and killed. This incensed the Negro troops, Shekerjian testified, and notwithstanding they were told that Baltimore was not killed, their anger continued to rise, and that night they multiplied, went to Houston and shot up the town.
Cant, Shekerjian, who was on the wiltness stand practically all of the afternoon, testified that he was at Camp Logan about 2:30 o'clock on the afternoon preceding the shooting when a Negro soldier and a civilian brought in a report that Baltimore had been shot and was lying in a street in Houston Maj. K. S. Snow, he said sent him into the city to investigate.
The witness told of going to police headquarters, where he conferred with Chief of Police Brooke Roth Baltimore and Sparks told their stories of the incident in the chief's office. Shokerjian testified Sparks saying that Baltimore used in public languages to him. An officer who was with Sparks at the time of Baltimore arrest denied this, witness said. Chief Brooke then suspended Sparks. Capt Shuckerjian then said he took Baltimore to camp, instructing him on routes to little the whole affair, "Baltimore said he understood," witness said. Arving at camp, Shuckerjian said he cried at the drill surgeon into his tent and told them of the incident, explaining Sparks would probably be punished, and instructed the noncommissioned officers to explain the situation fully to the men. Mal Snow had previously canceled all tours for the night, he said.
Shekerjin then detailed the happenings in the camp later in the evening telling of learning that the Negro soldiers were obtaining ammunition and of his efforts to restore order.
The soldiers, he said, seemed possessed with the idea that a mob of Houston civilians was coming to the camp to shoot them.
"I passed into the crowd," witness testified "saving 'there is no mob coming'."
"Was there?" a Negro replied.
"Men, mobids can come into this camp to harm you unless it is over me," Shekerjin said.
"We are tired of this. We will take the law into our hands," one Negro shouted. Others excitedly shouted, "Give me more ammunition!" "Give me and get enough!"
At this juncture Nickerjian testified someone knocked him over. He got up and drew his flashlight and threw it on a man whose face impressed him, "from that light on I will put a hole through your!" he commanded Nickerjian put out the light!
Here the captain pointed out the door a Negro stout among the sixts three defensible in the court room. As the man when he referred to Col J A Bull, judge indicate conducting the prosecution, said Iro Hinkle, arisa."
The Negro Nickerjian had pointed out arrows, which were nervous. He then was composed to kill down. Continualz, Nickerjian then trilled.

"I'll happen faster than I can tell

"I continued running to men and taking
hold of them, issuing orders to cease firing. I was having some success.
"About this time I heard someone tell
so hell with going to France! Let's go
clean up that d— city!"
Then the captain said he saw a man
running past me. "I grabbed him and
told him to help me get these men to

dressed, witness said, and he pointed out

"Let's go to work. M company has

city. The Negro than were running to-
ward town, he added.
The statement of the officers in the above article proves conclusively that those of the Twenty-fourth infantry who took part in the riot were justified in so doing, for the reason that it has always been the policy of the Southern white man to lunch, burn and outrage the colored people and drive them from their homes whenever they saw fit. The rumor had gotten out that civilians were coming to the post and there was nothing else for the soldiers to do but anticipate to resist. It is perfectly natural that they would not take the commanding officer's word, for the reason that oftimes in the South of those and the government have promised protection to Negroes and at the same time troops have been allowed to take lunch and burn defensively colored citizens, therefore the colored soldiers felt that they could take no chances, for while the commands of the officer were given in good faith, if the mob of white citizens should have gotten started in Houston these would have been an awful riot and thousands of lives lost, and perhaps the commanding officer would have lost courage and failed to give the proper order to the soldiers to charge upon the civilians and resist any end all attacks. Then, in all probability, the commanding officer, being a white man, would have felt that he was committing an unappropriate sin to give a command to these colored soldiers to d find themselves. Here is where we contend that there should be colored officers in command of colored repulsions, as colored men understand each other better, and if these had been colored officers the soldiers would have been certain that they rights would be protected if they had been in a better mood to okay the command, for as we have said before, wherever colored men are in trouble, as in East St. Louis and many other places we could mention, the white soldiers and officers always make the race question the issue and not the rights and protection of all citizens alike. Colored officers in command of colored soldiers would not have allowed such disdainful acts as were committed in East St. Louis, but would have given protection to all citizens, regardless of color or condition.
We see no reason why these men of the Twain's fourth Infantry should be convicted for defending their lives and the rights of the government. They have taught those Texas hollowns an object lesson, as they have no respect for the laws of their state or the federal government, or the rights of individuals, especially colored people. When a Southern takes a notion to take the law into his own hands he does so, for he knows that he has a gang executing the laws who always decide in his favor. One thing that the Twain's fourth has taught the Texans is that colored men will fight when they are forced out. The soldiers towed the mob and presented thousands of lives and millions of dollars worth of property from being destroyed and the city as of Texas should compliment the soldiers for acting as lawful. We call them attention to the fact that in the small years ago when hundreds of lives were lost and millions dollars worth of property destroyed for the reason that the militia and soldiers could not cope with the situation. The members of the Twain's fourth Infantry were in their full right and justifiable defending their posts for us, we will, no doubt the community, offer me will but he did not know anything about Southern sentiment or Southern moods.

PERRY, OKLA
At our first stop at Perry, Okla. we were very much impressed with the town, which is quite an agricultural town.
We wish to make special mention of Mr. and Mrs. Tallifferro, who have a large grocery store and own several good places of property. Mrs. Tallifferro is Grand Motton of the Order of the Ecston Star of Oklahoma and has had wonderful success, bringing the order up to its present standing, and she is still working to make the order better.
Mr. Ale Hunn, an old Topkhan owns a cafe and restaurant, a good piece of property has money in the bank and is doing well.
Rev S W Washington has charge of the street cleaning work and has for several years pastor of the Baptist church there. He owns property and is doing well. Mr. T. W. Works is janitor at the court house. He is also listed among the property owners.
GUTURE
Our next stop was at tuthill, which is a good town, but the colored people have not held their own in the business world. They have a few grocery stores that are doing nicely, but they ought to have a good dry goods store in that town, which would pay well. There are a few good barber shops, and two clothes cleaning establishments. A great many of the colored people of tuthill are engaged in forming, although they live in town.
We called on Miss Ridley, the editor of the Oklahoma could, and most say she is doing nicely.
Rev Walter Brown is building a new church.
Mr. T. C. Brown, the barber, has put on a tuxedo home and shop which will make him some money as soon as they are manufactured in sufficient quantities to be placed on the market.
Mr Tantz Thompson who is a teacher and runs a shop of 115 South Street, is one of our agents. Mr R R Bitton is also our agent and is doing well.
Dr H W Cormel is doing well with his sanitation.
The Chambers building owned by Mr Chambers is one of the best business properties owned by colored people in桂林. There is a first class grocery store located in it and a white confessionery with such a foundation in connection.
Gulithte is a good town and we hope they will strike off near there, so the town will grow, because the colored and white people in that town get along to gather than in most places.
Prof Cory has a school as principal of the high school and is now practicing law, and is succeeding.
The biggest disgrace that has happened to Guthrie since its organization was the recent pretended trouble between the members of the school board who pretended that there was a great scorpion over the appointment of teachers, but they made the trouble happen between the colored people instead of the whites, and the colored people were foolish enough to stand for the outrage, the consequence being that the school was not opened for two months. The matter was taken before the county judge, who gave the tribunal school board forty eight hours to proop the schools or the numbers would be dismissed, and on the forty seventh hour the teachers were appointed and the schools ended. This was only a fire and a false, and was only done to say a little money to the treasure and set the colored people as far back along educational lines as possible, and many of them fell for this kind of done. There was a great scrap on us to win should be teacher, and of course the white people were glad to use the colored people fighting among themselves. It looks to us like profit in the whole matter and that some one of the school board was making money. There are enough colored patrons of the schools in Guthrie to have colored people on the board, and they ought to get busy not elect someone to represent them in that quality.
OKLAHONA 4 LEX
We stopped at Oklahoma City for a short while and found our old friend L. W. Harrison, attorneys at law, enjoying an iterative practice. He is also attorneys for the National Ballet Concertation (un
Incorporated) and speaks in glowing
terms of the success Mr. Bloyd is making
of the publishing house.

At Luther we visited the great store of
J. T. Armstrong. Mr. Armstrong is an
Australian by birth and is one of the few
colored men we have but who are strictly
business men. He is doing a business of
£23,000 a year. The store was crowded
nationally. There is a warehouse in connection for storing goods. Through J.

have been able to buy homes and farms
and are now living on 125 street.
new man paying him from $1 up to several hundred dollars on account. White he is the leading merchant of that town he does not draw the color line nor does he insist on people trading with it because he is colored. He likes to be neighborly and also likes to see the white stockkeepers snatched as well as himself. We were in town Saturday evening. He beautiful intelligent wife has charge of the dry goods department, and we were surprised and pleased to see dozens of white ladies coming into the store and Mrs Armstrong and her colored girl as assistants setting them. The color line cuts no figure, for Mr Armstrong has the goods. He has a large Pierce knife in uniform, in which he sometimes takes a ride out through the country.
Mr. Vishal told Dr. J. A. Cox, who has one of the most drug stores in Oklahoma, having a good large stock of everything first class. His wife is a beautiful, intelligent business woman and manages the store. Dr. Cox is also a practicing physician and enjoys a good practice. He was born in Columbia, Iowa in 24 years old and a graduate of Mohun. 67 Mrs. Powell of Guthile is assistant in the drug store.
Mr. S. Howard and wife conduct a drug store store, meat market and restaurant and are doing a land office business. The Saturday we were in town they sold out all the meat they had in the market, both fish and curd and all the cooked food.
We were also glad to meet Prof Lott and wife Prof Lott is principal of the high school of that city. This is his fourth war and he has given great service. Mrs. Lott is a beautiful, intelligent educator and resident clerk in the Arm strong store and Mr. Lott is bookkeeper. When not in the school room he puts in all of his spare time in this store.
We got Mr. Knick Vickers, who lives at Jones, Ohio. He owns one hundred and sixty years of land which is well stocked and is doing fine.
We were proud to mage the town of Luther and it was our first trip, but here after when we are on the train going into Olinda and we hear "Luther" called we shall unbound.
We hope the colored people will organize an indicate and purchase farm land in that part of the country.
Before we left the city we had the pleasure of meeting Judge Watson, Justice of the court.
NWVL
Our next stop was at Shawnee, which is our first visit to that city. Shawnee is in the live town with some real live and people full of nice atmosphere. It was not Miss Arizona City and her. Miss Our host lived in the town. She then than Shawnee and is by a town that, instead of young business women and has the beauty pastor. She enjoys the privilege of the best and most good people in that city and surrounding town. She has beautiful living quarters and a two to three living life. We are proud of her and her business. We not for Brooks, a prominent picture physician, who now has a commission as a lieutenant in the army. There are several grocery stores and further shops in the town. We are not a friend Hurry Hobson and wife, formally of Independence, but who are doing well.
Mr Roy C W Nunn the Baptist minister, who has been in the emphasis of the Bell Telephone company for a number of years.
While in Shawne we stopped at the Vailhough hotel, called to Mr. and Mrs C Vailhough. The hotel has thirty two rooms and I run on the European plan. It has been in operation for nine years. Mr and Mrs Vailhough are five people and the hotel is a first class place, well regulated and furnished, every thing neat and clean, and there is a coffee and dining room in connection. We have travelled to many parts of the country, and this is the last total owned by colored people at which we have ever stopped.
We met Roy Gittwood of Chandler old, a Methodist minister and a good business farmer. He owns shops and eat the grown cotton, and perches on Sun star
We also find the pleasure of dining with Prof Causer and wife, The Professor is principal of the high school and has several results. He has been there several years and has succeeded in having the school board put up a nice two story school building which has eight rooms and a bromant. It is modern and well equipped for doing the school and mount training work. Prof Causer is to be command for the first work he is doing. He says he has a first class school board and the superintendent of schools of Shawnee is a man who believes in giving all the people a chance for a good education. Mrs Causer is the daughter of Mr Jones, formerly of Kirkstall, now of Welch, Kan. They have two fine children, own a nice house and other premises
Decision in the Trials
The colored people of Shawnee have a few business places - pool balls and barber shops - and are beginning to own good homes. We would not wish to meet a inner set of people anywhere than those at Shawnee.
There is a large cotton mill in this city which gives employment to quite a number of people.
BROOKVILLE
We went on to Brooklyn, which is an exclusive colored town located on the Santa Fe. They have a large cotton gin and a number of general merchandise stores.
Prof. Simmons is the mayor and is the man who is consulted upon all matters pertaining to the interests of the people about Brookville. He and his devoted and intelligent wife conduct a grocery store and he also has charge of the gin up to the time we were there he had paid out over $50,000 for cotton, showing that this is a great cotton center. This gin has a capacity of about forty bales a day and the average is about twenty five bales a day. Prof. Simmons is a graduate of the best schools and colleges of Texas, and he has the confidence of the biggest business men and bankers in that part of the country. He is a face gentleness, quiet and reserved in his manner, kind and polite, and if the President of the United States was going to call for a diplomat we know of no man latter fitted than Mr. Simmons. His friends are many.
Mr F. L. Larkin has just opened a dry goods and grocery store and seems to be doing well.
A new townsite has just been laid out for Brookville, and we are told the people are boating lots quite rapidly.
At Teemish, the counts sent of this county, we telephoned to Brookville and and laid Mr. Frank Supert come over with his new Bulk, and he took us to Brookville and back. He is a wealthy farmer and owns more than a half million of land. He was born in Tennessee and sat first at Markope, coming from there to Brookville.
LINA
Our next stop was at Lima, Okla,
which is a little colored town! I am a
postoffice, two or three stores, a cotton
gin which seemed to be working to its
full capacity, several good homes, curry
body busy, and they have just erected a
$10,000 school building. Lima would be
a good town if someone would go there
and establish a good general merchandise
store, which is very much needed in that
part of the country.
The leading man of Lima is Mr. B. B.
Gross, who is the postmaster and owns a
fine house, a well stocked farm, and-1
worth something like $15,000 or $20,000.
There is considerable room for improvement
at Lima.

ANADARBO
We stopped at Anduruko for a few hours and to our surprise found one of the largest furniture stores in that town which was established by Mr Rufus Shaw some years ago and it is located in a large building, 150 foot deep, full of furniture, and is now owned by Mr John R Shaw, a brother of the late Rufus Shaw. The building is owned by the widow of Mr Rufus Shaw Mr John Shaw owns the building just across from the one in which the furniture store is located and in it he conducts a new and second hand store. He also has a warehouse and owns a like back residence and we must say that he is one of the most and most successful young business men we ever met. He has travelled in Europe and the principal parts of the United States is a graduate of Lunation national tural school in Paris. When he assumed control of his brother's business after his death in 1911 the stock was left to all the relations in common and Mr. Shaw succeeded in buying them all out and now owns the business himself Mr Harry N Shaffer, the manager, is one of Anduruko's leading young white men and he takes a great pride in managing this business. Mr Shaw has the entire responsibility of the Finance and other duties to look after and the bookkeeping which takes all his time the colored portraits are proud of him, as he is making great progress for himself and the price of large We valued his home and met his estimate wife who is doing much to make the business a success.

She is a very industrious young
lady and she and her husband own good property.
The colored people, as a rule, are not
progressing as rapidly as they might. The
town is pretty well overrun with Indians.
LAWTON.
Here is where you come in contact with the soldiers from It Mill. It is a very lovely little town and at this time several hundred colored people are engaged in work at the post and are doing fine. We found several successful restaurants, cafes, barber shops, roaming houses and tailoring shops.
Dr P R Gathing, the leading physician, who has been there eight years is a hospitable gentleman, has many friends and is doing well.

Mrs. Bertha Coney and husband have one of the most successful boarding houses and cafes in Oklahoma, crowded from morning till night. Their rates are reasonable, and in the cafe they have the best and latest of everything on the market. They also own good property and are fast coming to the front.
We met Mrs. Caledonia Abernathy, formerly of Topeca. She is certainly a humble woman; owns 100 acres of land. She has two fine daughters, Miss Gertrude, who is opening a picture how, and Miss Cornilla, who is in the hair dressing business.
We met Miss Helen Hunt of Emporia and Mrs. D. W. Gloster of Little Rock, Ark., who were guests at the Abernathy home.
We also met our old friend Mr. I. W. Klay, who we must say is a gentleman full of push, is a money maker and owns considerable property. He is a bachelor, but no doubt some good women could induce him to change his mind. He is estimated to be worth over $5,000, is a retired business man and is now employed at Fort Hill.
GOOD-BYE TO DR. HILL
Hundreds Throng Shiloh to Listen to Farewell of Eloquent Divine.
Sunday morning and evening Bilohi Baptist church was stuffed to its fullest capacity with people from all sections of the city. They had come to any farewell to the pastor, Dr. Joseph T. Hill, and listen to his masterly silence and sound lodge for the last time, perhaps forever, for many months at least. The audience represented people of every denomination and creed, and the "good follow," who is a well-wisher of the church but solitary attenders, was in evidence every way one shamed to gaze. A splendid man was leaving the community, one whose power and influence had borne fruit and mankind benefited thereby, and a fitting crown had assembled to show their appreciation and bid the Doctor and his excellent companion godsped. It was an occasion never to be forgotten, and never before in the city had such a large number of people of different re-

likons, crosses, lamps, etc., assembled under one roof for holy worship.
"My kingdom is not of this world" was chosen for a text, and as usual this great intellectual plant was at his heart, and from his magnificent storehouse of knowledge then fastened for an hour, and at the conclusion of the discourse it was plausibly visible that they desired the speaker to continue. At this service eight persons were baptized and fellowshipd into the church.
The training service was more largely attended, some of the other churches are pending service in order to permit their worshipers to pay their respects to the man who had been a pastor of the city. He came to Topoka through the Shiloh Baptist church, but preached to the people of Topoka. Hundreds were turned away at this service. Every inch of standing room was taken; even the rostrum at the foot of the speaker was filled with people. It was the same representative crowd of creeds and dictionaries, only it had grown on the streets it was often naked. "What does shiloh mean, to let a man like Dr. Hill get away from them?"
The text for this service was "What is that in thine hand? and he said, a red" "Thus spoke the Lord unto Moses, but those who heard the sermon thought the elephant Doctor must have had a brick in his hand. He hindled the discourse without gloves, and drove home many facts that will bear fruit, and paint and sinner will profit therefrom.
Dr Hill will be greatly missed in Topeka and the Kornoke Baptist church at Hot Springs, Ark., can will congratulate itself on its good fortune. As a token of esteem and appreciation, Dr Hill was given $200 and many handmade and useful gifts. Here's hoping he will grow and prosper, and should the Dale folk two of him, send him back to Topeka, where he will be received with open arms.

Since Uncle Sam has placed a large contingent of race men at Camp Funston for training, over the protests of some of the whites of that locality, it is up to the citizens of the state to prepare places for the entertainment of those men when they come into our cities and towns on ourough to visit. If we wish them to remain clean, able-bodied fighting men, representative of the race, they must have the citizens of the state to prepare places where they can find a good atmosphere to pass any their like time. Our churches should take the initial step and open wide their doors, where our young men can read, buy a cup of coffee or write a letter. If these accommodations are not afforded, other indications will be made to them to frequent questionable places where more harm can be done in a short time than we can remain in years to come. It is high time that we should awaken to these facts and act at once. Every opportunity possible is offered the white soldiers in this city when they come to town. The Y M C. A. doors await them. The eating houses and hotels are open to them. The churches have reading rooms where papers, magnasthen and writing materials are furnished them. What have we to offer our own books when they come to spend the weekend in Topeka? They will come to us in large numbers from time to time during their stay at the camp. They will expect some form of entertainment; some place to read, eat and sleep. They come to spend their money, and do so freely. It is up to us as self-respecting, race loving citizens to awaken and give this matter serious consideration and take immediate action.
VEGORES ARE NOT RAVIABLE
Colored Soldier in the French Army Are More Considerate After Capture of Their Hurries Than Their White Brothers
A widely prevalent fallacy has charged the Negroes with insurgency against their captives. Their officers say this charge has been disproved time and again after fights at Verdun, in Champagne and north of the Alpine. The Associated Press correspondent saw Negro troopers bringing in batches of prisoners after a battle at La Favelle, when a French artilleryman approached them to take one of the prisoners' shoulder straps as a souvenir. One of the Negro escort, however, became indignant and shouted:
"Over there in the trenches you might have taken one, but now that the Germans are prisoners they must be treated like women and protected." And the artilleryman had to go away without his souvenir.

We are proud to note the fact that the United States Supreme Court has decided unconstitutional the segregation laws of Louisville, Ky., Baltimore, Md., and other cities prescribing certain districts for colored people to live in. We are glad the Supreme Court has begun to look on the right side of justice. While it gives police regulation in the several states unlimited power, the Supreme Court has un doubtedly erred in giving them the right to segregate on interstate commerce, for while the court has declared in one instance that states can not interfere with interstate commerce, it has at the same time declared that the states have the right to regulate passenger traffic and a colored person traveling from one state to another is subject to be insulted and elected from first class passenger coaches and placed in fithy Jim Crow cars because the police regulations of that state no demand. While the Supreme Court has not decided this particular point which we would like passed upon, the railroads have been very shrewd and when their roads enter states where this law is in operation they always remove colored passengers into inferior coaches and never disturb the whites, knowing full well that if this was done the white people would resort to the courts for this abuse of privilege and the courts would sustain them. The colored people have never yet seen able to get a fair decision on this matter of interstate commerce, of personally going from one state to another, but have to be subject to police regulation of the states, when it should be the response. We are, however, proud of this life decision and hope for better things to come. We admit that as the race advances and becomes better educated along the lines where men will stand up and defend their race, then we will get our rights, but so long as we let men set a standard for us to follow, just men set a standard in our rights. There has not been a decision rendered by the Supreme Court of the United States or of any state where the raw question is involved when it has been decided that the state had a right to aggregate the race on any proposition of public matters, which is unconstitutional, and the courts so know, but they have resorted to this subtitle of saying it is better for the races that such laws be upheld, while at the same time other nationalities are allowed to minute and enforce all the rights and privileges under the laws and constitution that are guaranteed to all citizens, and no courts have yet upheld any discriminatory laws against all these allied forces and nationalities except the colored man. He is the only human being set aside and discriminated against by those unjust decisions. No honorable white man will say that it is right for any state to pass or unhold a law aggregating the colored race from the rights and privileges that are enforced into the laws and constitution within the confines of the state. Justice is a blind goddess who is always turning some up and some down, not knowing the color or condition, race or nationality. All taxes are assessed alike and paid into the same coffers and the ministering of justice should be the same to all alike. Let the race take hope, because of this decision, that things are coming better every day.

Dr. N. Paul Dudley, the "Minute Man," is here on his annual visit, and while sojourning is giving the people a peep into his bountiful storehouse of knowledge. Dr. Dudley wants to eliminate the term Negro and substitute "Ktheorian." He says it is obnoxious and degrading to the race and in his talk on the subject offers many strong points to substantiate his claim. He has a very beautiful chart dealing with racial history, etc., which enlist one to a membership in the "Ktheorian" club.
One of the finest things presented to a Topkaka audience in many moons was a lecture Sunday afternoon at the Central Hospital church by the Rev. Sir Frank Wilson, Chief Grand Mentor of the Knights and Daughters of Tabor. For over a quarter of a century Rev. Wilson has been the guide of the organization, piloting it through difficulties and reverses and today it is one of the greatest faternal orders in the U.K. The audience was small, but with apprehension and followed the speaker closely for all hour and ten minutes. "Immunity," was the subject and "every sentence termed with sound and wholesome logic." From a literary point it is a game and fired by the eloquent and forceful delivery of the speaker is very inspiring. At the close of the address, Rev. H. W. White, pastor of the church, paid a glowing tribute to Rev. Wilson in which he characterized him as one of the greatest benefactors and a man who is truly great. He said that Rev. Wilson had built well and that the Knights and Daughters of Tabor would ever stand out builds as a proud and lasting monument to his memory. Truth is a great lecture and we hope to hear it repeated sometime in the close future to a good large audience.
