THE RICHMOND PLANET THE MAYOR OF NEW YORK J. THOS. NEWSOME, General Attorney SHOT TO DEATH. THE REV. DR. EDWARDS INSTANTLY KILLED. Was Well-Known Here: Denver, Col., Aug. 21, 1911. Mrs. Alexander Edwards is a strict believer in the Biblical injunction. "Confess your faults one to another and pray one another that ye may be healed." So when she began to suspect that her husband, the Rev Alexander Edwards, pastor of Central Baptist Church (colored), was intimate with various "sisters" of the congregation she confirmed her suspicions by the aid of a detective agency and then insisted that the man make his confession. Edwards confessed to J. J. Manuel, one of his stock, that he had been intimate with Mrs. Manuel and Manuel brought him close with a bullet. Now the pronomer is dead and his slayer is in the city jail on a charge of murder. It all happened last night, and the pretty white church at Twenty-fourth and California is without a pastor. It is also minus its senior Sunday-school teacher, for the man charged with murder hold that position. Manuel has been a leading mem- J. THOS. NEWSOM ser of the flock ever since the church was started. He taught the older Sunday-school students and his wife had the very small children. They have no children of their own, but gave much of their time to looking after others. The Rev. Mr. Edwards appreciated their efforts, particularly those of Mrs. Manuel, and he began calling at their home at 4238 Decatur street to express that appreciation. He happened to select the times when Mrs. Manuel was there and that is how the trouble started. Edwards was somewhere around 60 years of age, and Mrs. Manuel about 25 years his junior. His wife, too, was younger than his oldest children. A while ago Mrs. Edwards began to hear things that reflected on the idolity of her preacher husband. She wanted to make sure before she required a confession of him, so she hired detectives. They blamed Mrs. Manual for the preacher's absences from home, and yesterday afternoon Mrs. Edwards read to the Rev. Alexander Edwards what St. James had to say about confession. He admitted everything. She led him reluctantly to the Manuel home, that he might confess to the wronged man. Manuel returned from his work as caretaker for the Park Land Company and found his wife with Mr. and Mrs. Edwards. He Edwards told quolls the purpose of the visit, ending with, "My parents to confess to you, that he may be hailed." (Continued quote Number) 10 W. Leigh St., Richmond, Vn. Sept. 5, 1811. Editor John Mitchell, Jr. City: Dear Sir,—I read in the columns of The Richmond Planet (first page), under date of Sept. 2, 1911, a statement relative to my thesis for the publication of the same: It is not true, and I would be very much obliged to you if you will give me the name of the person who authorized you to make such a publication. I have never desired newspaper notoriously and please don't make any further publication relative to me unless the same be over my signature. We presume Mrs. A. W. Holmes referred to the statement in our last issue that she offered to take the leadership of one of the clubs to raise money to help liquidate the indebtedness of the Order. Our informant was one of the present officials of the Grand Fountain. As the statement is unimportant, we content ourselves with a denial of its correctness, based upon the positive assertion of Mrs. A. W. Holmes, who knows best what she intends to do, and who accordingly with reference to such a personal matter is "the court of last resort."—Editor.

True Reformers Reduce Expenses Twenty-Seven Thousand Dollars Per Year.-New Officers Ask for Time. ```markdown ``` The new management of the Grand Fountain, United Order of True Reformers is about as hopeful a lot of officials as have been seen in this city for a long time. Around there on Second street the look of dejection has been in evidence for so long a time is gone. The cause of this condition of affairs is due to the fact that the Bureau of Insurance of this State seems determined to give the present officials a fair trial and to see if they can improve upon existing conditions. It is also evident, too, that the large attendance at the recent session of the Grand Fountain has given additional cause for hope. CREDITORS ARE PATIENT. The creditors are holding off so to speak, realizing that to attempt to force payments, at this time would cause a collapse of the whole superstructure, with the result that no one would get any money upon any of the chima. A campaign is being inaugurated in various sections of the country, and the North Carolina problem is being subjected to treatment. There is a general demand for Grand Worthy Master W R Griffin, and it is evident that that "angel" face and that pleading convolving voice will be in evidence in many parts of the country Mr Griffin is now where those whom he has criticized have been HEAVY REDUCTION IN EXPENSES He must carry out the promises made and he has certainly started about doing it, it is announced by him and his associates that the expenses of the Gramel Fountain have been reduced to the amount of $2,250 00 per month, or $27,000 00 per year. The payment of death claims will begin shortly. Pledges from all states to pay the money is steadily increasing Grand Worthy Master W. R. Griffin spoke at Newport News, Va., last Thursday night, and at Washington, D. C., last night. He will speak at Roanoke next Monday night, and at Lynchburg next Tuesday night.

New Orleans, La., Aug 21, 1911 Hohn Mittleman, Jr, Editor The White House My Dear Sir,—I inclose a clipping from the New Orleans Daily States, that have had, and now has as its landmark, the artificial and "much a-do about nothing" idea of "training all colored people to suit their own whims. That servitude was the best thing for the colored man and what has been left of its barbarous and incideous dealings and incriminations must be taught to them by every method conceivable to Southern journalism, and that class that has charge of the machinery of government. If the State Board of Education of Virginia has adopted that, as a textbook on history for colored pupils, and such volume or pamphlet contains what the press reports it has, I think it is the most contemptible piece of treachery, moral cowardice—and the simple admission that the Southern white man was right and his present contents are right also. In innoculating the virus of servility and every conceivable method that imparts the doctrine of non-resistance to the colored man with the idea that he is a mere thing" doomed to despair and almost isolation and extinction somewhat of an automaton, instinct vs reason. In all of his relationship that has to do with American civilization he should be taught the doctrine equally—or in the future all will be done. There ought to be protests from every colored man of Virginia against that history as a part of the common school curriculum of the State. Virginia's Two Negro Historians. Two colored men--Giles B Juck A. HUMBLES, Member son, a lawyer, and D. Webster Davis, a school teacher both of Virginia, have written an "Industrial History of the Negro Race in the United States." The authors are inclined to the Southern view of the causes of the Civil War of fifty years ago, write hopefully of the progress of their race and declare that "the honest, self-respecting Industrious and frugal negro can always find a white hand in our Southland stretched out to help him to higher and better things." The following is a passage taken from the work of the two historians: "There must have been refolio among the angels as they watched the order of creation. When God made the world they took down their harps from the willows; when He created man to rule and control the world, they tuned the strings, but when he made woman and brought her forth in her pristine loveliness, to be the helper and companion of man, the angels struck their harps, because they felt that God Himself would do no better work. Let us pause to pay a tribute to the old mistress on a Southern plantation, who, at all times, day and night; was willing to listen to the cry and administer to the wants of the negroes on the Southern plantations, and to such as she heaven awards its brightest crown." It is said that the Virginia State Board of Education has recommended the adoption of the work an a text book in the negro public schools of that State. ANNUAL INSTALLATION OF S. G. OFFICERS.

The man had just reached the scene when the dalriness observed him. About 8:30 P. M the taxi left Richmond and also passed an automobile and a man in the road. This must have been somewhere near 9 o'clock. Several other people wore in the cab, and may be called as witnesses. "Did he have anything with him?" asked the prisoner's counsel, very quietly indeed. "Yes; he had a single-barreled shotgun on his shoulder." The courtroom was very still. A newspaper carried a low, shook whistle and dashed off a bulletin. All three Battles within the room perfectly calm, without a chance of face. The defense was showing that Much dispute has arisen over the yellow top Counsel for the defense, as previously stated, openly asserted in court that a large percentage of cars now have yellow tops—an assertion that drew a rebuke from the bench. It is now declared by many that there are but three or four yellow tops in the whole city of Richmond. The prosecution will likely introduce experts to prove this. AUTOMOBILE INSPECTED Suddenly the State called Mrs. Blinford mother of Beulah. The crowd gave a gasp, and settled back for the thorough enjoyment of some new thrill. It was not to be. The prosecution with equal suddenness, altered its plans, and Mrs. Blinford retired temporarily without having said a word. At all events the willing spectators had at last got a good look at her. The Beatle automobile was driven onto the green and the jury leaving the box and followed by the whole courtroom audience, inspected the car thoroughly in the presence of judge counsel and prisoner The crowd was much interested, but observed strict deformity. The jurymen silently went about their work, making no comments, and the court, by agreement of both sides, permitting no suggestions or argument by counsel. The machine splotched with blood stood a mute witness. Several jurymen crawled into the uirt beneath and inspected the bottom. It is important to determine if the blood in the road could have dripped through the machine. The prosecution claims not Cushions were pulled up and the inner mechanism revealed. Henry Beatle looked on much interested. What the jury saw and concluded none but the twelve can say. In the nature of things it must have noticed these A yellow top. Bulck make. Absence of rear doors. Absence of rear doors. Other testimony, less important filled out the day. In the afternoon Chief Detective Scherer took the stand, and entered upon a comprehensive and careful rehearsal of all the facts and circumstances relating to the crime. For the first time the judge identified the accused account. From a legal point of view the statement of the chief detective was of great value to the prosecution. From the popular point of view it contained little that was new. Various conversations between the detective and the accused were recited in detail. Certain conflating statements in Beattie's several accounts of the murder were pointed out by the witness. According to Mr Scherer the accused admitted to him not only his past but his recent relations with Boullah Blinford, saying that he spent several hours with the girl on the night before the shooting. Comment was made by the witness upon Beattie's lack of torns or other evidence of sorrow after his wife had been killed. In great detail the detective then went on to describe the telltale footprints at the stump, describing the search for the murderer, telling the discovery of the gun and generally laying the whole story bare MANY OBJECTIONS There were many spats between counsel. Here, as elsewhere, the defense is objecting and objecting. The bill of exceptions will fill an enormous volume before it is done. Hearray evidence dares not lift its head here. Mr Carter even objects to hearing what the bloodhounds said in such language as they could command. Here is a sample true to the letter. "It appeared to me—" "We object." "It is my opinion—" "From all appearances—" "We object." "It looked like—" "We object. If Your Honor pleases." "It wan—" whatever it really happened to be. Only then did the witness vault the stile The important envelope to the Dear Kid" letter is still excluded from the record. The State's lawyers tried hard again to get it in yesterday, but Mr. Carter was entirely too much for them. They will try some more. The envelope contains the only date upon the misstro—July 14, 1911. four days before the murder. So far as the letter shoots itself is concerned, it has on it nothing to signify when it was penned. HEARING GOES OVER Cross-examination of Mr Scherer was not begun. Here the real test of his story will come, and the defense is preparing for an onslaught. No important did it regard this matter that it asked an adjournment when the direct examination was concluded, in order to have opportunity for an extended conference with the prisoner. By this time storm clouds had drawn up again, and mindful of the experience of the previous afternoon counsel also began to think of the long journey back to Richmond. The court hesitated to waste even an hour. Counsel arose for a discussion and at one moment threatened to exhaust in argument the time they seemed no destructions of saving. Final matter was put to the jury, and the nearest twelve, expressing no preference, the court agreed, and it too, had a few situations up its few mering. But for the dramatic entry of the bearded highwayman upon the scene and an occasional touch of blessed humor that helped, lift the shadows for a moment, the trial of Henry Boattie, alleged wife murderer, dragged through a tame and uneventful sixth day, the Commonwealth finally resting and the defense opening its case. Tarrying a moment to slip off the stage the improbable messenger boy, who strolled in the afternoon before with a story that threatened to upstate the vital features of its whole carefully-balanced case, the State speedily closed, having little else to say until the rebuttal comes. Then the prisoner began his defense, and the trial took a turn into a new lane, revealing for the first time a glimpse of the other side of the picture. Isolated facts of considerable interest on their own account came forth now and then, but the sign event of the day was the definite indication of the line to be pursued by Bountie in his struggle against the heavy odds no less harassed before him. Very plainly, the prisoner's counsel, by their plan of attack, showed a purpose to stick firmly to the original story of the crime and to to a finish from this vantage ground. Not only was this true, but before the defense's return movement was two hours old it had ventured even to produce the highwayman himself, bringing him to view, with shotgun on shoulder, a few miles from the scene of the murder, a few hours before its occurrence, striding steadily toward the fatal spot. In fact, before the evening closed, two highwaymen had appeared, and, unfortunately for the defense, their beards did not match one being gray and the other red. "Did you not say in Mr Baker's presence immediately after the coroner's inquest," naked Mr. Smith of Paul, that you were going to tell something you knew and that you were glad to get oven with Uncle Henry because the oven took your mother, or some other female member of your family, into a room and made her sign away everything she had?" An impasse was reached again it seems. But Wonderburg went right after Baker with a hammer and tongs delivery, and the wiliness did not fare well, though he clung to his story. Baker had said that Paul referred to his "mother or mother-law" as the one whose property had slipped into Uncle Henry's hauds. Then he changed is to "mother and (By Joseph F. 'Gelsinger) HENRY BEATTIE MORE CHEER F11. When Henry Beattie went back to his lonely and cheerless cell last night he seemed in some manner but for spirits. The day had not brought a vast deal of comfort to him, but at all events the other side had ceased its merciless pounding, and he was beginning to hear something in his own favor at last. He took it very calmly. The circles around his eyes were deeper than ever, and his face was still haggard by comparison with its recent complaint cast but the dogged, hunted look that would steal upon him occasionally gave place to a distinctly more hopeful vision of the future it seemed. What it may mean to him in the end, the first stroke for him brought keen gratification to the prisoner in the mere fact of seeing some one willing to stand firmly by his side. At one time he leaped his head on the bar in front of him and laughed convulsively. The county clown was on the stand, and Beattie be it said for him laughed only because he could not do otherwise. Neither could any one else. It is now believed that the trial will conclude by the middle of next week. With the State done and the defense hand more or less clearly shown, there was some opportunity yesterday to get a practical view of the prospect. The defense will probably conclude its testimony by noon tomorrow with the appearance of the proponent himself in the witness chair. The sentral will consume the remainder of the day and the morning of the following. It may be possible to get the instructions by Saturday afternoon. Or by Monday morning at the latest. Then the argument will begin and continue two days. This would carry it up to Wednesday when in all likelihood the jury will enter upon its consideration of the verdict. What the rebuttal will bring forth is impossible to say in this moment. A change had come over the face of things again yesterday and now not certain after all that Hellenic印ford the woman in the case, will ever take the stand. Development alone can decide this positively. The argument will precipitate one of the most brilliant legal battles of late years. In the forefront will stand Smith and Wendonburg with Carter and Gregory able supporting each. It will be a tight worth seeing. MANY HIGHWAYMEN APPEAR The defense with no blair of trumpets, quietly but rather suddenly lied down its trump card soon after the dinner recess. A tottering but sharp-witted old farmer named Henshaw, a Mormon, had just given a rumming account of the discoveries of a stranger in the Midlothian precincta a few days ahead of the crime shaw saw him on three separate occasions—on Wednesday, Friday and Monday preceding the houndle Twice he was sitting by the road and once wandered almostly along. This was within three-quarters of a mile from the spot where the murder was committed. The stranger was a slant-built man, rather tall, weighing about 180 pounds, about fifty years of age and a two-weeks' growth of board on blair face. The beard was gray. Altogether a very queer looking character, the wayfarer appeared to Henshaw to be a harmless lunatic. Promptly after this witness came W. R. Holland, a quarryman springing the one sonation of the day he, too, had a highwayman to describe. Shortly before 6 o'clock of the evening of the tragedy, Holland, working away at his quarry, observed a mysterious individual plodding along the Southern road, heading toward the Belt Line. The man wore a slouch hat, was about five feet eleven inches tall, weighed from 180 to 175 pounds and seemed about thirty-eight years old. He had a growth of board on his face—a sandy beard. THE RICHMOND PLANET, RICHMOND, VIRGINIA. Somehow it fell rather flat. Unquestionably, the sudden introduction of the personality of the highwayman, supposed by most people to be a creature of circumstance and the imagination, was both startling and impressive. The crowd, however, had been sated with thrills. The usual had become the commonplace, and worn out its own effect. Perhaps at another time the little room could have witnessed another scene aline, that of Monday, when Paul Beattie sat in the chair and talked to the curry, carefully avoiding the glaring eyes of his cousin. But now there was no scene, though without a doubt interest was high for a moment. Presently will more highwaymen came—old affairs having no connection with the present crime, but tending to reveal the existence in the county of a strong prejudice against automobiles. By this means the defense endeavors to establish the animus or motive in some hypothetical unknown. The rude and murderous assault described by Henry Beattie seemed to have no cause for crime except a deep hatred of motr carr and a determination not even to stop aside for them in the road. One remarkable case of a hold-up on a county road about a year ago was recounted yesterday, and two others will probably be cited today. Before it is done Chesterfield will have won a new sort of reputation. The woods seem to be full of highwaymen VA. UNION Offers the Best COLORED IT.

The Commonwealth is contending that blood could not in any way have gotten out of the automobile, and that therefore when Mrs. Beatle was killed she was in the road and not in the car as her husband has stated. By means of, the second spot near the place where Henry Beatle declared he stopped to fix his lights when he was racing home with the body of his dead wife the defense hoped to prove that blood did in fact step through the machine. Do this it and two little boys. But the State takes no chances, with so vital an art. SENBATION FALLA FLAT. From all appearances, the Commonwealth is not disposed to treat the new development seriously. The story was too put. There seems no question of the actual existence of the two individuals. In question-graybeard and redhead—but the prosecution broadly suggests that it is familiar with the hunts and habits of both and will be prepared at the proper moment to show them up in this true guide. Holland who was undoubtedly telling the truth when he said he saw a man with a gun on the Southern Railway stationed that he could identify him. The Commonwealth will probably give him a chance to do so. It is now declared that the presence of this man in the neighborhood was known long ago to the detectives, who made a thorough investigation at the time and now know the name and whereabouts of the supposed highwarmman and who are prepared to produce him on short notice for the inspection of the court and jury. Moreover it is claimed that men with guns are after all not rare objects along the Midlothian pike (itself though men with guns bought by Paul Beutte do not come every day. Remark was made yesterday in court upon the point that this is not the hunting season and that there is no reason why a stranger should go strolling about 'the place with a shotgun. As a matter of fact the woods along the roadside where the murder was committed are excellent for squirrels and rabbits. One man in the crowd boasted of halftrained ten bunnies there as late as last Monday The defense's trump card, it seems does not win. It must try again. PAUL BEATTIE THERE AGAIN One other feature stands out in the dull day the confrontation of Paul Bentle with two men who made statements he fathly contradicted. There was a touch of the dramatic here Paul eyed the witnesses calmly and then as calmly declared that they were not telling the truth the witnesses looked straight at Paul and said they were. The jury will have to decide this unless the Commonwealth, as it claims, is prepared to prove that Paul is right. It had not been expected that the prisoner's cousin would be dragged into the case so soon again. He had been left behind in the Henry flair, and there was something of a hurry when Mr Smith announced that he would be needed. A hurry call was sent to the prison. Fifteen miles away, where Paul, in bed, rolled up in blankets, 'was enjoying a chill and a morning newspaper. A tragic made the trip from fall to courthouse in one hour Paul did not have a merry day, though he seemed chirpy enough. The prisoner fastened his eyes on his cousin as he passed in through the door, but Paul did not look at him. Did you not tell G. W Booth on Mayo's Bridge the day after the homelife that you did not believe Henry had killed his wife,' and that he always spoke affectionately of her?' asked Mr Smith "I did not" "In that Mr Booth?" asked Mr Smith, pointing to a man who had just entered "It is" Paul got up and Booth sat down "Did Paul Boottle tell you on Mayo's Bridge the day after the homicide that he did not believe Henry had killed his wife, and that he always spoke affectionately of her?" asked Mr Smith. "He did" It looked and looks like a hard blow at Paul, but the Commonwealth, though refusing to go into details, asserts that it will have something more to say of this sode later, and that its star witness will come out of it with skirts clear. About an hour later Paul was called again Right behind him walked W F Baker. The two looked at each other "I did not." Baker was anked and answered: "He did." Nothing on earth is so valuable as a human mind. If a diamond is worth publicity at great trouble and poor expends more in the pain of a boy or young man worth all its polling that the school can give it. The best education is not too good for a growing tooth. Who would choose a poor physician to save a few cents when health is in danger?

Is that the best memory you've got?" 'Yes, it's the best memory I've got' "Read the record," snapped the lawyer quickly. The stenographer read and Baker stood convicted. "And now you come here and try to repeat a conversation three weeks old and yet you can't remember three minutes what you said yourself" remarked Mr Wendenburg sarcastically. But prince goeth before the fail not long after this the State attorney had occasion to question the accuracy of a quotation of a witness by counsel of the opposite side. It referred to the size of the much-discussed second "blood" spot in the road. He said eighteen inches across and not eighteen inches in diameter" said Mr Wendenburg" "He said eighteen inches in diameter and not eighteen inches across." said Mr Smith. "I appeal to the record," said Mr Wendenburg "Eighteen inches in diameter" read the stenographer Now, go out and apologize to Mr Billy Baker," laughed Mr Smith. The crowd littered and the court rapped sharply. The judge reminded counsel that if lawyers within the bar indulged in loud laughter he could never hope to preserve order among the more spectators. OTHER EVENTS OF THE DAY Rain and storm came overnight. The county roads filled up with mud and many an automobile rolled into a mire hole and stopped abruptly dropping its protesting passengers in the middle of the woods. Things move swiftly and surprisingly in Chesterfield. But a few hours before stiffling heat hung over the courthouse and dissatisfied beings gaped in the suffocating air yesterday all was changed. The sun had disappeared, and the air was damp and raw and almost chill. If the courthouse store had been blizzing nobody would have complained now. More than this, the to spare at the opening. It was no small matter to get by the sandhars, and the spectators were late. Work horses, with bony humps kicking nightly toiled along and got there at last. By noon the place was filled right up. Few stood on the outside, however. The Commonwealth set out and put once to its task of quelling the most fifteen-year-old boy who held up the whole court on Tuesday and caused something of a sensation by relating the discovery of a second blood spot in the Millothian pike Several Richmond motor cars were stalled, and there was some trouble getting the witnesses to the courthouse. After a time the swing began however, and that Alex was mashed. The little boy certainly believed all he said, but having bloody vision and a Sherlock Holmes turn of mind, he saw more than was really there. The prosecution clearly and conclusively showed by a dozen witnesses, including an uncle of the dead girl, the president of the State Penitentiary Board, the chief detective in charge of the case, the county coroner and several automobile owners, that no such second spot could have been in the road. Nobody had seen any blood except at the scene of the murder. They went specially to find it, but completely failed to do so. If it had been there it would surely not have escaped them, all said. One man declared he had passed two or three small puddles of water in the road. He was absolutely certain that they were not blood. Apparently he believed these were what little Alex had seen.

Not only this, but careful inspection called to show that a single drop of blood had come from the car after it got back to the Owen home with the body of the girl Thomas Owen Owen single of Mrs Bortlete seemed quite unlucky as to this Having seen one or two blood spot on the front bench he wiped ghee out and then went to the special purpose of finding others and removing them. He found again. STATE RESTS ITS CASE On the day before Henry Beat- thes best man was on the stand a rubient witness for other side now come the dead girl's mould of honor Miss Reena Reams. Her testimony was brief. She inspected the bar- gin found in the road near the县 of the murder and declared it was a kind wound by Lousey Qwen Beat- tle up to the time of her death. The importance of this lay court's in association with other things. The fact that a hairpin similar to a million others in the world was an isolated fact not very impressive. But taken in connection with certain other matters and perhaps the evit of the murderer's hair it was held by the State to be important in that it fended to establish the prosecution's contention that Mrs Beutte was in the road when killed. Later in the day the court definitely excluded this evidence and the hairpin now ceases to figure in the case. At the same time the court directed that nothing concerning the behavior of the blood hounds at the scene of the murder he allowed to get before the jury. "The Commonwealth rests its case." ] The long-awaited words came from the States end of the bar fifteen minutes afternoon Motions touching the admissibility of certain evidence were argued, Judge and counsel retiring. The defense then began. Paul Biegatte taking the stand first as previously described.

SATURDAY ..... SEPT. 6, 1911 Allen's National News Bureau. New York City, Sept. 2, 1911. The most notable address ever delivered in this country against race discrimination and the unjust treatment of the Negro in this country was delivered last Monday evening at the Pennsylvania Avenue A. M. E. Zion Church at Baltimore by Bishon Alexander Walters, the noted Zion prelate and race champion. In a speech characteristic of the Bishon the lynch law worked in this country was condemned, President Taft was criticized for his apparent acquiescence of these wrongs, and every unjust treatment of the Negro was hit out at by the Bishop. The fearless race champion worked the large and representative audience up to a pitch of great enthusiasm that brought forth cheer after cheer from the audience. The meeting held at the Pennsylvania Avenue Zion Church was called by the citizens of Baltimore to protest against the wrongs cropping out all over the country against the Negro Rev E W Jones, pastor, presided, and after a few musical numbers presented Bishop Walters as the orator of the occasion. The Bishop, who is well known in Baltimore, spoke along the same lines which were the keynotes of his address last week at the national political meeting at Boston Bishop Walters spoke as follows: "The right of the black man to the equal protection of the law of this great country has begun with the department of the Thirteenth Fourteenth and Fifteenth Amendments to the Federal Constitution. This sacred document guarantees to all American citizen life, liberty, the pursuit of happiness and the right to a trial by jury." Continuing, the Bishop said "I am sorry to say that while we have fulfilled our part of the contract, the government has been derelict in performing its duties toward us. We have been denied the right of suffrage in seven of the Southern States him crowed in the railways and trolley lines, denied justice in the courts and burned at the stake all because of our color and previous condition of servitude." Striking out against lynching, Bishop Walters said "Lynch law robinson against the regular operation of machinery of justice. It is opposition in regular counsel authority—a menace to good government, and therefore must be suppressed in order to save the nation from ruin. "If the States are powerless to suppress mob violence, then the Congress of the United States should pass laws to suppress it. The lynching mania is again becoming general and more flandish in its method. For a while there was a cessation in this feeblar business, lately it has broken out afresh, and it looks as if it would undermine our judicial system. "Lynching is a national problem and must be dealt with by the nation in large Striking out at Taft, Bishop said. There is something radically wrong in its government when a President alienates it in powerless to stop the burning alive of human beings, and when Congress tells you that we cannot help you—you must go to the State. There is hardly a morning that lynching is not served to us a breakfast dish. "The main cause of lynching is a low state of civilization on the part of its perpetrators, and a lack of healthy moral sentiment throughout the nation. The burning of Sam Hose, Henry Smith, Walker at Pennsylvania, and Peder Carter, of Oklahoma, and a score of others within the last ten years could not have happened in a country where public sentiment was altogether healthy. Speaking in an optimistic tone, Blashop Walters said: "While the limitations and restrictions placed upon us on account of race and color prejudice are numerous, let us rejoice in the fact that there are many doors open to us. "The important door of the home is open to us, and we may enter and make it as clean, sweet and pure at the home of any other race. At the close of the Civil War the time of our emancipation, we had but few hymns over which we had full control, and so far as legal marriages were concerned, we had but few. Today we have thousands of beautiful homes— homes where right principles are being inculcated in the children, homes where high ideals are set before the youth of our race. The door of the church is also open to us, and we have entered and made amazing advancement in things ecclesiastical and spiritual. The door of the school room is opened to us and we have entered and achieved wonders. The Negro has shown himself to be the equal of any other race in intellectual possibilities. This is evidenced by the high honors taken by Afro-Americans from the wealthiest and most influential institutions of learning in this country. Within the last forty years we have been able to eliminate over fifty per cent. of our illiteracy. We have an army of over 30,000 teachers and more than a million and a half of pupils in our schools. Thousands of our young men and women are learning trades. Bishop Walters paid a glowing tribute to the lawyers, doctors and professional man of the race, and said more business enterprises must be opened. Bishop Walters urged the race, to go into politics. The Bishop made a plea for a new leadership, and said that continual agitation would be an effective means of solving the question. - Closing his address, Bishop Walters salute. The price of our complete liberty is just of all a sacrifice of money sufficient to carry on the campaign. Many courage is needed. We must recognize the fact that while as a gnee we are united of the objects to be obtained, our civil and political rights. We must organize our forces at whatever cost and pain it may require. At the conclusion of the address the Bishop was cheered and vigorously applauded. BISHOP WALTERS. NOT TO CHANGE, REBIDENCE. The press notices going out from Thompson's National News Bureau to the effect that Bishop Watters is to change his Episcopal residence from New York to Washington is denied by the Bishop. Bishop Watters told your correspondent at his residence last week that he was to continue to reside in New York, and would make periodical visits to Washington to supervise the Zion work. The Bishop said that New York was a splendid place for an Episcopal residence. A NEW INTERNATIONAL Y M ' C SECRETARY. David D. Jones, a brilliant young race man and graduate of Wesleyan University, at Middletown, Connecticut, has been added to the international force of the Y. M. C. A. secretaries. Mr. Jones, who was endorsed by such eminent men as Rev Dr W. H. Brooks, Dr W. P. Thirkeld of Howard University, and President Shanklin, of Wesleyan University, is one of the best known young men of the race. His labors have been more or less in the Y M C A field, and he goes to his new field with a wide experience He is a North Carolinian by birth and attended the public schools of his native city and went off to New Orleans University, where he prepared for Wesleyan Mr Jones' work will be confined among the colored students of the colored institutions of the country His headquarters will be at Washington where he will be associated with A W Hunton Mr Jones is a brother of Dr R E Jones, author of The Southwestern Christian advocate CONDITIONS BAD IN PANAMA. Information reaches this bureau that work is progressing on the Panama Canal under very unsanitary and unsatisfactory conditions. The laborers are working under conditions very infurious to health and life, and much complaint is made by the negro laborers of the canal of how they are discriminated against and forced to live under unwholesome conditions. The colored laborers are separated from the whites and unwholesome conditions of the un sanitary part of the lsthmus. As a result of this mode of living, many of the colored men are forced to leave the lsthmus. The colored men are given Joseph wages than the whites and are forced to eat what is left over by the whites. The cost of living is so high in the canal until the men have very little opportunity to save anything. The colored laborers are not allowed to mingle with the whites in the Y M C A, and as a result must seek other means of recreation, which is not as wholesome. These unjust discriminations among the blacks and whites is creating much disturbance, and an effort is being made to bring them before the attention of the Federal government. These conditions were made known by Thomas B. Wilson, a colored American, from Philadelphia, who has just returned from the canal, where he went to work as an officer. Mr Wilson insulted that he offered the lathusin in dialogue when such conditions as named presented themselves. Mr Wilson was a visitor to Allen's National News bureau. Mr Wilson brought along several views, showing the unhealthy location of the negro quarters and the great contrast between the blacks and whites on the lathusin. A cut showing a picture of the Y M C A rooms for the white laborers and pictures of a room for the colored men shows the sarking need of a colored Y M C A on the lathusin. PROMINENT NEWSPAPER MEN IN METROPOLIS Last week the Metropolis was graced by a number of prominent colored newspaper men, who were passing through the city enroute from big race movements which they had been covering. Among them were Sol C Johnson, editor and publisher of the Sakannah Tribune, Emmet J Scott, of Suskeeson, and editor of the Tuskegee Student, and others. China Stewart, the noted negro newspaper man, is heading this way, and will be in the Metropolis soon. Information reached this bureau that at the meeting of the newspaper man at Little Rock much good was accomplished, and many phases of journalism affecting the negro were discussed. T. Frederick Smally, who publishes the Small's Trade Journal, was a visitor to Allen's Nationt News Bureau last week, and was enthusiastic over the session of the newspaper men. GENERAL NEWS ITEMS. Rev. Dr. S. L. Corrothner, the noted Zion churchman and candidate for the bishopric, was a visitor to the Metropolis last week. Dr. Corrothner was the guest of Blahop Waters and came over from Boston, where he was one of the speakers at the National Independent Political League. Rev. Dr. J. E. Harper, of Cincinnati; Miss Anna Grinnage, of Washington; Mrs. Harriot Gibbs Marshall, of Washington: Emmet J. Scott, of Tuskegee: Miss Annie Paine, of Washington. D. C., are among the visitors to the Metropolis. Dr. Wm. L. Bulkley, the only colored principal of a public school in New York, arrived last Sunday from a trip abroad, where he had gone for recreation and study. Dr. Bulkley-radicals a pleasant trip, and will enter into his work with a greater vim. Dr. Booker T. Washington is planning to tour the State of Texas the HE RICHMOND PLANET, RICHMOND, VIRGINIA. last of September. He will be a companied by Cleveland Allen, man- ager of Allen's National News Bureau. Bishop Walter's speaking dates are as follows: Monday, September 7. Binghamton, N. Y., following by visits to Danbury, Winsted and Hart- ford. Conn. A movement is on foot to orga- nize a national association of colored art and musical club. The club has planned an interesting campaign, and is under the direction of Mrs. Harriet Gibbs Marshall, president. --- In Memoriam.

A. John Gates Left Second Will. The late John W. Gates left a second will, it was learned in New York city, setting a side in effect the great ten-year trust he had created by the will drawn in 1910 for the joint benefit of his wife and son, Charles G. Gates, embracing practically all of the $40,000,000 in securities that he is said to have owned. The purpose of his former will, as announced by Judge Henry A. Gildersleeve on the day of the funeral, was to protect friends who had gone into his various enterprises with him from embarrassment by the possible casting on the mark of his death of his holdings. No such effort to prevent this is made in the second will, as only $2,000,000 is placed in trust. This trust is for the sole benefit of Charles G. Gates, the son, and is to continue during his lifetime. In addition to this, according to the will made public Saturday, a bequest of $1,000,000 is left outright to him. The widow is named in this later instrument as the residuary legatee after the provisions for the son and a number of smaller special bequests have been carried out, making her probable share, it is said, something over $30,000,000. She has arranged, however, in pursuance of a wish of her husband expressed during his last illness, to turn over to the son a part of her share of the estate sufficiently large to make their portions approximately equal. Fought Duel With Shotguns As the result of a duel fought with shotguns near Pineville, Wyoming county, W. Va., Wyatt Lambert is dead and Joe Mullins has surrendered to the authorities, pleading guilty to the killing of Lambert. Lambert and Mullins were enemies for months, having fallen out over a line fence. When Mullins passed the home of Lambert he carried a shotgun and made an insulting remark to Lambert, ending it up with an invitation to meet him in the woods. Lambert secured his shotgun, and a few minutes later Mrs Lambert heard half a dozen shots. The woman gave little heed to the firing, and it was only when her husband's mule returned home with one ear shot off that she became alarmed. Going down the road, she heard groans and found that her husband was shot and dying. He died before he could be taken home. Names Nearest Go-Respondent. William C. Bowman, manager of F, W. Roebling's fancy poultry farm, "Oaklands," at Trenton Junction, has a suit for divorce in the court of chancery in Trenton, N. J., naming Augustus Werts, a negro chauffeur, as the co-respondent. The "Oaklands," of which Mr. Bowman is the manager, is one of the most noted model poultry farms in the country. The Bowman's were married in Trenton in 1802. Mr. Bowman is recognized all over the country as an expert in poultry raising. Parole Captain of the Blocum. Captain William H. Van Schaick, who was commander of the excursion steamboat General Blocum when it burned in Hell Gate on June 15, 1904, with a loss of a thousand lives, was paroled by the United States govern- ment and returned to his home in New York from Sing Sing prison. It was a surprise to his wife and family, and the captain himself, for the old man was almost overcome. Condensa Life In Flat. "I am convinced that an all-wise God never intended human beings to live in fata," said Edward R. Pritchard, secretary of the Chicago health department, in addressing the Chicago Association of Commerce. "A parent who places a child in a far endanger's its health and robs it of a real home. Some facts may be better than others, but all are bad." Torpedo Boats Were Tossed by Wind Like Toys and Many Buildings Wrecked—Million. Dollars Will Not Cover Loss. Charleston, S. C., is steadily recovering from the disastrous result of the hurricane. A large force of laborers is cleaning the cebris-strewn streets. Train service is approaching the normal. As far as can be acertained eleven human lives were lost in Charleston county and a score or more people injured. The property damage amounts to at least $1,000,000. Shipping has suffered, but it is impossible at this time to fix the loss in dollars. Scores of launches have broken away and efforts are being exerted to catch them. In the low lying sections there is much suffering and the danger of sickness because of the storm effects is said to be great. Heavy rains contributed to the height of the water in the streets and yards caused by the abnormal tide, many lower floors being inundated, with loss to household effects. The Rdd Cross society has volunteered to render any financial assistance that might be needed The telegraph and telephone companies are striving to get their wires into working order. The violence of the storm is indulcated by its play with the torpedo bonts. These form part of the reserve torpedo fleet which is stationed at Charleston, and were strongly fastened to the stall-like wharves of the inner harbor. While they are obsolete in design, it was a revolution to the naval officers to see them picked up by the wind and swept ashore. With a shudder they contemplated the possibility of these little vessels with a human burden on the open sea during such a storm The storm left its imprint on the navy Six torpedo boats were wrenched from their moorings at the Charleston navy yard and tossed to toys high upon the beach by the ninety-mile gale. Many buildings of the navy yard are believed to be wrecked. No estimate of the damage can be made because of the interrupted telegraphic service. It is not believed that any lives were lost at the navy yard. The commandant appealed for $20,000 as an emergency fund with which to make immediate repairs. Though this amount will not by any means cover the loss sustained by the navy, Acting Secretary of the Navy Winthrop authorized an expenditure of $15,000 for the urgent work. The wireless station of the yard is out of commission and the meger official report to the department was sent by telegraph from Summerville, B. O. Roofs and doors are strown about the station and many of the wharves and sea walls have been almost demolished The lighting and power wires are on the ground and the trackage of the yard has been blown away. BOY KILLS ANOTHER FOR GIRL'S LOVE George Bellis, aged fourteen years, was shot and killed by Harvey Osborn, aged fifteen, at Stroodsburg, Pa. The youth then made his escape, and County Detective John M. Decker is scouring the county for him. Both boys were paying attention to a young girl who was staying with the Bellis family. The Osborn boy is reported to have said he would shoot the Bellis boy if, he would tell something the girl is alleged to have said about him (Osborn). The Bellis family live near Henryville. The Bellis boy stood at the top of the stairs and the Osborn boy at the foot of the foot when Osborn pulled the gun and fired upstairs. As soon as he did so he ran Osborn is a son of David Osborn and lives with his grandfather, Dimmick Detalck, whose home is not far away from the scene of the tragedy.

While some tourists in Switzerland were crossing the Loetachen glacier, they saw deep down in the clear ice the faces of two dead men. Guldes chipped out with their ice axes the frozen bodies of the two men and brought them to the surface. The bodies are probably those of two London tourists named Bemabesche and Cohn, who disappeared fourteen years ago. Chief Counsel For H. C. Beattie Jr. In Wife Murder Trial. --- LEAPS TO LAKE BUT SAVED BY LOVER Girl Tries Suicide Because Wedding Is Delayed. Angered because her lover, John Philhillan, put off carrying out his intention to marry her, Miss Clara Boyer, aged twenty three years, tried to commit suicide by throwing herself from the high breast of the Upper Tumbling Run lake, a pleasure resort near, Pottsville, Pa., into fifty five feet of water. The attempt at suicide was made in sight of many pluckers. The girl was out walking with her lover and suddenly broke away from him and ran toward the inkl, declaring she would take her life. When his sweetheart made her desperate leap Philhillan was close behind. Losing no time, he jumped in and supported her despite he pleading to let her end her troubles, until Peter Pfeiffer, a fisherman, C. Fred Cauffman and several others, in boats, dragged the couple ashore. A half hour later the couple walked from the water's edge, arm in arm, a complete reconciliation having been effected. It is believed the long-delay wedding will now take place. ST. CROIX JOHNSTONE. Fell Into Lake Michigan and Drowned When Engine Exploded.

Photo by American Press Association Inherits $40,000,000. John W. Gates, who died in Parla left a fortune of between $30,000,000 and $40,000,000. A close friend of the family declared the estate to be worth nearer the latter than the former amount. "This means that Charles G. Gates, only child and heir, will be one of the most powerful of the younger masters of finance in America," added this friend. Expression of regret, not only from his wide circles of acquaintances, but from numberless Parisians, who knew Mr. Gates only as a bold and successful business man, poured in upon the bereaved family. Mrs. Gates and her son are much worn by their long period of anxiety and nursing, and much sympathy for them is expressed. As soon as word of Mr. Gates' death had been cabled to America, messages of condolence commenced to arrive at their hotel from friends and business associates in the United States and elsewhere. The body of Mr. Gates will be placed in a vault, at the International American church, in the Rue de Barril, where it will remain until taken aboard a steamship for removal to the United States. Mother Sneeze Son. A probable fatal shooting occurred in Reading, Pa., when following a $3.50 Recipe Free. For Weak Men. I have in my possession a prescription for nervous debility, lack of vigor, weakened manhoo, falling momory and lame back, brought on by excesses, unnatural drains, or the follies of youth, that has cured so many worn and nervous men right in their own homes—without any additional help or medicine—that I think every man who wishes to regain his many power and virility, quickly and quietly, should have a copy. So I have determined to send a copy of the prescription free of charge, in a plain ordinary envelope to any man who will write me for it. This prescription comes from a physician who has made a special study of men and I am convinced it is the surreptitious combination for the cure of deficient manhood and vigor failure ever put together. I think I owe it to my follow man to send them a copy in confidence so that any man anywhere who is weak and discouraged with repeated failures may stop drugging himself with harmful patent medicines, secure what I bellove is t.e. quickest-acting restorative, upbuilding, SPOT TOUCH ING. Remedy ever devised, and so cure himself at home quietly and quickly. Just drop me a line like this: DR A. E. B. ROBINSON, $995 tuition fee, Detroit, MI. I will send you a copy of this splendid recipe in a plain ordinary envelope, free of charge. A great many doctors would charge $3.00 to $5.00 for merely writing out a prescription like this—but I send it entirely free. I would like to know the whereabouts of my mother, Beadie Allen. She went away in 1892 from Oberlan, N. C., two miles from Raleigh, N. C. She was last heard from last October. She was away, she would be away, she has five children am the youngest daughter that is trying to locate her. ONE OF THE LEADING PAINTER All Work Guaranteed. Cards. Lestors or Orders.

At the third shot Semore cried out, "Shoot again." He was hurried to a hospital and the mother, who has been married twice, was placed under arrest. She was not remorseful, and said she shot in self-defense after her son had made a threat to kill her. Five years ago, near the scene of the shooting, Semore killed a colored man, Andrew Anderson, by cutting his throat. He claimed self-defense and was acquitted. Woman in Bloomers Put in Chain Gang Iola, Kan. city officials, except Municipal Judge Smelter, are up in arms because a woman has been sentenced to don bloomers and work on the jail street gang Judge Smeltzer sentenced Mrs. Ella Reese to the gang, and ordered that officials provide her with bloomers. Street Commissioner Glynn refused to have a woman in the chain gang and other officials. say they will not allow her to serve the sentence. The city commissioners, Mayor Boltinger and Mr. Glynn have pored over the statutes trying to find some law invalidating the sentence, but failed. Judge Smeltzer insists that Mrs. Reese must work upon the streets as ordered by him. One of the commissioners has asked that she be made to darn nocks and mend clothing for some of the other prisoners. --- Two Boys Found Dead on Car. William Beakbank, aged fourteen, and Robert Crosby, aged sixteen, of Syracuse, stealing a ride into New York from Syracuse aboard a fast freight train, were found dead on the top of one of the cars that made up the train when the freight pulled into the Grand Central station. Somewhere in the darkness, probably near New Hamburg, where there is a split rock cut about 200 feet long, the train had shot into a tunnel, and the boys, fattened out as they were, on the roof of the car, were jammed against the top and crushed. Their skulls were fractured. Their faces were unrecognizable. Prices of beef are to be raised and New York retail dealers say the advance makes the cost of meat pass the high water mark of last fall Prices have been steadily advancing for two weeks and the wholesalers say another advance is to come. The wholesale price of thirdquarters of beef has jumped from 11 to 14 cents, while pork Johns have gone up from 10 to 13 cents. Wholesalers say the cause of the present advance is the warity of good cattle on the west and south west. Jersey Central Raises Firemen's Pay.
