On July 26, the statement says, Gen- eral Uribe informed the governor of Caracas that he had been approached by Carlos Gafaro, a Colombian, who asked him to join a plot for the capture of President Gomez. The plan wes for the seizure to take place at Senor Gomez's farm in the suburbs of the capital, and the ‘conspirators, armed with poignards in order to overcome any resistance, were to"compel, Senor Gomes to telephone or ders to the governor and to Inspector General Galavis to surrender the garri- eon at Caracas.

Superintendent Ehrke’s statement says that the assertion that there were just 19 passengers én the wrecked car is borne out by the train chart of Pullman Con- ductor Haynés and the list given ont at Chicago by H. G. Elliott, first assistant general passenger agent’ of the Grana Trunk. - ‘The eatasured passengers, according to ‘Superintendent Ehrke, who has charge of the Grand Trunk lines west of the De- troit and St. Clair Rivers during the absence of Superintendent Egan, were checked up when the train started east- ward after the wreck. ‘The forward section, which was knoxn as No. 14, had stopped because of an accident to the air brakes, and Engineer Mitchell; of the forward section, had crawled ‘under his engine to locate tho trouble. The locomotive of the second section, known as No. 4, plowed half way through the rear sleeper of the forward train, and the locomotive fire-box set fire to the Pullman car, | ‘The passengers in the rear berths had not the slightest chance to escape, and those not killed by the crashing” Eiabers as the locomotive forged through the sleeper were burned to death by the ffre that followed. Half a dozen passengers, however, seriously in- jured, were, rescued from the forward rths and taken to hospitals in Lurand and Flint. SMITH BY 3,476, Hoke Has 230 Votes to Gov. Brown's 138. .

(Special) —The total population of the United States and island possessions‘ may reach 100,000,000, according to unofficisl estimates made by Director of the Census Durand. When the“figures are completed, about November, Mr. Durand expects to sec the total for the states show about 90, 000,000. It may run up to 91,000,000, but this now appears improbable. ‘The Statistical estimate places the figure at 89,912,000, but it is considered sure that At will go’ beyond that. With the, rest dents of the Philippine and other islands it is possible, that the total will round out the century of millions.- “That's not ‘such a big number,” said “a census employe, “if you stop to think ‘that Jobn D. Rockefeller could give every man, woman and child $10 each and then “have some change to put in the Sunday school plate.” Tt is estimated that from 1900 to 1907 this country gained about 4,292,000 by immigration. “About 30 per cent. of im- ‘migrants in those years returned to their ‘native Iands.

The serious Vossische Zeitung, the Tageblatt, the Post and other papers point out’ the constitutional character of the Kingdom of Prussia in the empire, and inquire whether the chancellor, Dr. Von Bethmann-Holtweg, was privy to the Emperer’s purpose in delivering such a speech, They predict that it will Tead to a renewed discussion of the Emperor’s constitutional position when the Reich- stag reassembles in November. ‘Tho strongly monarchist Tagliche Rundschau, the favorite journal of army officers, says: “This speech means a storm. * * ° Never before has Emperor William set into such clear relief his romantic, medi- eval idea of his non-responsibility to man’s judgment, of his not being bound by the’ constitutional co-operation of the Peoplevand of ruling by God's free. grace Against all those convictions and feelings which today determine our existence as a state.” {rWhy." asks the Tageliche Rundsehau, “should ‘the Emperor choose this moment to emphasize hig ruling by" God's grass and his own right, when it will nourish an anti-mooarchieal agitation and good monarehists be thrown into a condition of Aragie disruption?” ® The organ of the landed nobility, The Deutsche ‘Tages Zietung, thoroughly ap- proves of the declaratlons of the Eu peror. ‘The Local Anzeiger lays stress upon the desire of the Emperor that the peo- ple to-operate with him, and points out that the Emperor delivered the speech in the castle where the Prussian kings were formerly crowned. He said in the same hall in May, 1890: “We Hohenzollerns take our crown from heaven’ alone,” and” in the same place om September, 5, 1804r he quoted the words of bis grandfathef— William I-—about ruling by divine right, and added: “So, too, do I take my king: dom by God's grace.” ‘The Tayeblatt affirms that although prices did not fall on the exchange, trad- ing slackened, and brokers apprehend an unfavorable influence of the speech upon markets at home and abroad.

PLE’S SCHOOL, AGAIN TO FLING WIDE ‘ITS. ; -pooRsS. —~ : Again, the time draws near when historic old Beach will fling wide its @oors. When the merry voices. of gleeful lads'and lasses will be heard about its poundarfes. When the re- turn of teachers, absent for months, ‘will lighten the hearts” and reibhten ‘the hopes of both youth and age, who age, interestet in the progress of the grand old school, and in the perpet- ulty of the principles for which it has always stood. We will welcome the teachers back again—one and all. We will hark with delight to the nolse of hammer and lathe, of buzz-saw and plane. We would welcome, again the merry clatter of the cleanly and comely lasstes wao,, by the orders of the. instructors ply the needle and turn the griddle. We would inhale again, the savory odors which arise from “sample dainties” prepared in ‘a model Kiteten by “little brown hands.” We would, again taste them. In the midst of the schools of our fair city and vicinity, Beach Institute stands out pre-eminently, the greatest. Its Influence is“not alone confined to the city and state, but it is national In scope and power, because its pro- ducts may be found in every quarter of the union dispensing the whole- some instruction received within her walls. Being a product, herself of a stormy period, her history is entwin- ed about the history of the state as a formidable factor of reconstruction, She has moved slowly but surely along upon every tidal wave of pros: ress that has given zest to the state and nation, modulating its effort and aim to the popular idea of progress- ing education, so that it ts not to be wondered at, that when the industrial education {dea covered the state, Beach institute was not asleep to its beneficence. Alett to popular de- mands, the Industrial idea was stud- fed out, and after arduous labor and tireless effort, adopted and instituted by Professor Weld, wao is in charge of affairs, ably assisted by an experi- enced and competent alde in the per- son of Professor Walters, the indus- trial department of Beach has devel- oped commensurate to the splendid advance of the Mterary department Under the managemeiit of Professor Weld the standard of the school has been raised. Though two years have been added to the higher course, the advantage fs with the students. For, in pursuing the studies incident to their additfonal years, those students who shall seek further advancement In other schools or colleges, will find that the advantage will come to them, then and there. They will find then, by a comparison of expenses incurred during the additional years spent at Beach, with tae expenses which will necessarily be incussed away: from| home, that the lengthening of the term at Beach was really an econom- ic one, advantageous, allke, to tbe school and to the patrons thereof. Beach Institute 1s the people's school and should be so considered by every Negro of the community. And as such we should all know it, know its teachers, thelr manners and methods, their relation to the _stu- dents, the students to them. Our en- couragement should go to them, un- solicited as evidenced by our interest in the progress of the school. And since it is the people's school the peo- ple should visit it They should indi- vidually know of the splendid instal- ment of machinery; of tue elegantly turnisted and beatuifully arranged rooms’ for instruction In the domes- tie arts, carpentry in its various guises. The people should see thelr children in operation in all of the recitation rooms from “Dan to Beth- sheba and back to Dan.” ‘Then will they know of the splendid methods through the channels of which thelr children are being pressed prepara tory for future usefulness. We sin- cerely hope that during the next term of this famous institution, every man and woman of the community will viait this school and pay their re- spects to their children and to those who are laboring for their uplift. It appears to me that it would not be a bad policy if the principal of Beach should prepare a registrar for the purpose of keeping a record of each visitor who came to the school dur- ing the term. The number-of names recqrded would tell an interesting story. The innovation, I believe, would serve its purpose at a minimum A Wife's tnfiuence, —/ , Lookers on often see the, wonderful fhftuence a wife can exert’ for the good or failure of her husband. By a gracious, genfal manner she may win hosts of friends for him,- In nearly every walk of life where he has to look to the generous public for.a live- Mhood, she can, help him; make the yoke easier, and the burden lghter, says‘Woman’s Life.

To middle age, when we have at/ tained to being what we Negroes.call “settled people,” no lessons are more delightful than those derived trous "youth. And after any slight foreign -experientes, how ready youth is to- teach; how sure of acquirements, judgment, and taste! At this season of the year the young return from their educational institutions to spend the holidays instructing thelr parents, and they return full of faith in their ‘mission, How wonderfully decorative ‘they are, too! It is one of natire’s nicest adjustments that youth should | bp baantifal ‘enough to make good all its deficiencies in sense and reason, while age makes good tne withered textures and faded colors by a phit ‘osophic temper and, a sense of hu- ‘mor. Yes; youth treads the earth proudly as one who masters environ- ‘ment, and instinctively, we, who have lived and failed much, fall toto the background conscious of) being tar nished with overwork.

They look upon us with a certain tender pity, and won- der what Interests life can -possibly have to offer one who has réached tho decrepit mit af forty-five.

A. A. Virgil, the colored pastor of the Warren A. M. E. Church in Pittsburg, Pa. "I believe the members of my race have gone far enough in their jubilant spree over the victory at Reno," he said. "Too much Johnson has made us mad. The Negro is still a missionary people and will be for many years to come. Consider that it took the white race two thousand years to get where it is and it is still far from perfection. We have harder battles to fight than those of the prize ring. Let the sober mental sides of our natures get a proper hearing. There has been absolutely too much Johnson on our lips and perhaps in our hearts." Huppar One Not In the Bible. "We were invited to dinner the other evening, my wife and I," said a Staten Island preacher, "by some people who had just moved into the parish. Inadvertently my wife had allowed the maid to go out that day, which involved the consideration of my boy, who is just five years old. My wife, telephoned, asking if it would be agreeable to bring the youngster. Of course, the new parishoner replied that they would be delighted. So we went. He Had It. Dr. Emmee—Your husband has very little pulse today. Mrs. Rastus Johnson: Yes, but don't yo' remember you done took his pulse when yo' was heah yestidy? Certainly. Rastus: It certainly am easy to abuse a good thing. Ebenezer: Dat's right. Now; a razor am all right in a barber shop, but it's a mighty troublesome thing at a social ball. Her Only Criticism. Little Dorothy not only liked her tea and coffee to have the appearance of being "really and truly," but she also liked the taste and flavor of each, says the New York Times. One afternoon her mother took her to a friend's home where tea was served at 5 o'clock. The hostess gave to Dorothy what she usually gave to her own children—of Dorothy's age—in the line of liquid refreshment, viz., hot water, sugar and milk. Dorothy tasted her's politely and ate her little cakes. "Why, Dorothy, you aren't drinking your tea, dear. Isn't it sweet enough?" asked the hostess. "Yes, Mrs. C., it's sweet enough," replied the child. "Then why aren't you taking it?" "It's too dull." she replied. Oh! These Servants. Mr. Browne: My daughter is to be married on Friday of next week and I'd— Mandy Lane: Yo' all will have to have dat some other day, cos' Friday am mah afternoon off. "At dinner I was asked to say grace, and not satisfied with this the family began to repeat in turn a passage of Scripture. The brevity of the beautitudes seemed to make the most popular appeal and when by boy's turn came I saw a twinkle in his eye, but was scarcely prepared for what followed. With a look of extreme plety he folded his hands and exclaimed: "Blessed are those who sit on a tack, for they shall rise again!"—New York Sun. Dr. Simon Flexner the chief of the Rockefeller institute, referred, at a dinner in Philadelphia, to the increasing number of clean shaven doctors, says the New York Tribune. "It is cleaner, safer to be cleanshaven," he said. "Certainly as far as physicians are concerned, there was more truth than poetry in the dialogue of the two little boys on the street corner. "Don't you hate to have your face washed?" said the first little boy. "Oh, don't I, though!" the other answered. "You bet, when I grow up, I'll wear full whiskers." Catcher Bill Bergen of the Brooklyn club sprung a new one at Cincinnati. When Bill walked into the catcher's box he carried with him three immense catching gloves. Two were placed on the ground near the plate and the third adorned his left hand. This glove was worn until a Cincinnati player reached first and then discarded in favor of one of the other gloves. If a pitched ball happened to bounce out of this glove, Bill dropped it and used glove No. 3. Bill explained that gloves Nos. 2 and 3 made it easier for him; him steal. POETRY OR AND BY OUR PEOPLE THE OLD BLACK MAMMY. 'Tis easy to wander off from my theme When travelling over the ground; Thro' evergreen pastures across the bright stream When in fancy I wander around, And see in the picture which never grows older. Tho' age chills the blood which never grows colder. In fancy I see those good Negroes again And sung as they chopped with the hoe: I can never forget, wherever I roam. The scenes of my childhood, and home. The dear old black mammy, so gentle and tender. So, faithful and true to her trust I loved her so well I dared not of fend her. She is gone, yet I honor her dust From the wells of my heart arise tears of regret. The' she sleeps 'neath the sod, I can never forget. She was lovely to me in her colored baudanna With which she' turbaned her head; Her songs were far sweeter than flute or piano, As she put me to sleep in my bed. Her soft crooning voice I can never forget. Like an angels, in dreams, she comes to me yet. to me yet. —From Senator Gordon's farewell speech in the United States Senate. THE SERPENT. Defeat has served to make many a man What half the pressing world were broke to see him be, Who, when he spurned to gam the higher sand, Like some loathed viper, lowest yet to see— To fight the guest of omnipresence To fight the guest of omnipresence, hissed; But seeing from his lowly, narrow dēn His own vile, cursed purpose missed, His brow with cruel hate or spreaded grin Is set. For as some game pacer in the ring, He views the envied victor mounted high. Who, from his lofty height, to the serpent sings A triumph. The poisonous viper, doomed to die. From stifling smoke of scorching deed, Turns to breathe, his last earthly existence low. Where track and paths of only hisses lead— And dies or lingers long in dark and ashy cell, From which next step takes hold much in that fashioned way. A grind in everlasting, grasping Hell, Where, all repair, he starts anew, another wretched day. Adeline Gertrude May, in Colored People's Magazine.

Children Will Buy Home of Uncle Remus "Where is the home of Uncle Remus?" is a question often asked by visitors to Atlanta. Ever since the death of Joel Chandler Harris, on July 3, 1908, his home is a modest cottage in West End, a suburb of Atlanta—has been the mecca of hundreds who know his tales and who count it a privilege to breathe the air and to saunter over the premises of "Snap Bean Farm." The very name of the place is typical of Uncle Remus. Who but Joel Chandler Harris, with his love for the simple and the unostentatious, would have thought of the wholesome, intimate title for the few acres that surround the low, wide-verandaed cottage? And the house itself is called "The Sign of the Wren's Nest," because, year after year, a pair of wrens built their home in the mall box that hung at the gate. Brer Fox and Sis Cow and Sis The creater of Br'er Rabbit" and Meadows and De Gals," had won for himself the love of millions. Especially was he loved by the children. The child who has not heard of the tale of "Br'er Rabbit and Tar Baby" or the story of "How Br'er Bear Lost His Tail," has indeed missed a part of the heritage of childhood. For him, the animals have no meaning. If his childish imagination has not been stimulated by Uncle Remus' stories of the wild folk of field and forset, he will have little understanding or sympathy for the four-footed tribes. A short time after the death of Mr. Haryis an Uncle Remus Memorial association" was organized. The movement was started by ex-Mayor Joyner of Atlanta and was taken up by prominent club women. Mrs. A. McD. Wilson is president of the association, and President Taft, ex-President Roosevelt and Mr. Carnegle are among the honorary vice presidents. The object of the association is to purchase the home of Uncle Remus from the Harris heirs and make a memorial of it. The property is assessed at $25,000, and, as soon at it became known that the Uncle Remus Memorial association could buy the property, several rich men offered to give the entire amount, but since Uncle Remus had been, beloved by many, it was thought best that many be allowed to help in the purchasing of "Snap Bean Farm." From all over the civilized world letters approving the plan of the association poured in. Mr. Carnegie gave a check for $5,000, Julia Ward Howe and other American writers expressed their hearty sympathy with the work, and from children all over the country came countless small donations. The association plans to install a library in part of the house, to preserve memorial rooms where Mr. Harris lived and worked, and to convert the grounds into a playground for children. It has also been suggested that a free kindergarten be conducted in the house. Upon the lawn a fountain will be placed, reproducing the well-known four-footed characters of his stories in bronze or marble. Work of the Uncle Remus Memorial association is not purely local. The officers are endeavoring to make the movement international. They wish all who have enjoyed the Uncle Remus stories to have a hand. The stories of the escapades of Brer Rabbit have been translated into seventeen languages, and the memorial association proposes to give the children of every land an opportunity to help. In all lands, the homes of men of genius have been preserved, and it is eminently fitting that the home of Mr. Harris, who understood and loved children, should echo through the The big-hearted man with the small bank account rises heads above the mean man who has nothing to do but cut coupons. Mr. A—Where did a hen's egg come from? Mr. B—From the hen, of course. Mr. $^5$ A—Where did the hen come from? Mr. B—From thio egg. Mr. A—Who came here first? My landlord told me he was going to raise my rent. I told him I was muck obliged, because I couldn't raise it myself. "Say, Pop, whats' a pessimist?" "A. pessimist, my son, is one who. of two evils, chooses them both." Mrs. Jones (sternly)—Della, my husband found a button in the hash yesterday. The Cook—Falth, I'm mighty glad, lv that, ma'am! Mrs. Jones (angrily)—Glad? And why, pray? The Cook—It wor off me, best shirt-waist an' I know I'd have had a turrible time thryin' to match it. A linguistic genius is one who keeps angry silence, with the knowledge of a half dozen languages to help him express his feelings. coming years with the shouts of children. The fact that Theodore Roosevelt has accepted an invitation given him by Mrs. A. McD. Wilson, president of the Uncle Remus Memorial association, at visit Atlanta next October and make an address for the benefit of the association, proves the interest that the ex-president and the general public take in the work of purchasing the Harris home. Of the many invitations for addresses received, and necessarily refused by Mr. Roosevelt, this one was accepted by him while in Paris recently. While in Atlanta next fall Mr. Roosevelt will be the guest of the memorial association, not of the city of Atlanta, Mr. Harris left little in the way of wealth. His legacy was one of kindly philosophy and love. But many a vagrant newsboy knew his cryptic philanthropy, many a needy co-worker had been tided over the occasional cataract of life by him, many an old Georgia Negro revered the name of "Marse Harris." So long as there are little children to hear of Br'er Rabbit, so long will Uncle Remus be remembered and loved. The rabbit will hide As he always hid, And the fox will do As he always did. But who will tell us What they say Since Uncle Remus Has passed away? EX-HUSBAND'S RIGHTS. "Once a woman is married to a man, that man always has some claim upon her, even if she has a divorce. When a woman is married she never can be absolutely free again. Courts can separate them, but in the sight of a law higher than man-made law, in the opinion of all well-meaning persons, the husband still has a claim on the woman who was once his wife." Judge Ralph Latshaw of the Kansas City Criminal court so declared recently when he reversed a decision of the Municipal court which held Dr. Milo E. Hartman guilty of an attack on his former wife. Hartman had been fined $500 in the Municipal court on a charge of having accosted his wife in a dry goods store. When Mrs. Hartman had finished her testimony the court told the defense there was no necessity for them to introduce any evidence. "Hartman had a right to come up and speak to his former wife and even take her by the arm," he said. "As long as he did not abuse her or swear at her he committed no offense. He had a perfect right to regard himself as a privileged person in his dealings with the woman who had once been his wife. I don't see how any court ever imposed a fine of $500 on a man for speaking to a woman who had once been his wife." NEWS OF THE DAY. Pah-Pah-Thep-Peah and Wah-Ah-Che-Thet, two Kickapoo Indians, were in court at Oklahoma City on the charge of stealing a fat pig from a farmer near Harrah. The defendants were accompanied by their squaws, who, among other things, wore new, tight, bright, oxblood oxforda, with high pinnacled heels. As the trial dragged on the shoes: began to pinch, whereupon the squaws sat down upon the floor, pulled off their shoes, rolled over on their blankets and calmly fell asleep. The hope of Singapore is for a great trunk line railway running from this southern point of the Malay Peninsula northward through Siam to Burma and on to India, and a branch line through Cambodia into China.

For invalids use a bedstead has been invented in which the centre of the head is made to swing out to form a head and shoulder rest. The lower house of the Prussian diet, after vigorous debate, recently voted down a resolution to permit cremation in Prussia. The main argument against the measure was that burial was an ancient Christian tradition authorized by Christ and his apostles of the early church, and that if cremation were introduced a serious blow would be struck against the Christian doctrine of the resurrection of the body. In favor of cremation it was urged that graveyards were unhygienic and unaesthetic, and opposed to modern conditions.

Edward R Lewis, Envy—A Disturbing Factor in Negro’s Progress: Since his emancipation, the Negro has made the orld sicae ane take,notice of iis unparalleled - pace in the‘race of life. Infact, the ‘Negro has served notice on the world that he must be reckoned with in the great Marathon race of modern -civilization. Though heavily handicapped by carrying top weight, in many instances the Négro-has come down the Inst jap and cross the wire winning by nosé.,, 1h the parlance of slang, there has been “some class” to the kind of progress he has made. The world must applaud and does applauds for the record which we have made. Now,'the Negro is but achild race, and as-such, has very ymapy faults which time and intelligence must eradicate. We cannot expect to be perfect all at once; but we all aught to be willing to dd oug best towards bringing the race‘up toa high standard. The time.is now ripe for him to get rid of the biggest obstacle met with in the road which leads to success. Standing out in bold relief, blocking the progress of many a Negro, shattering the hopes of many others; and causing the down fall of many more, is Mr. Envy—monareh of: all he surveys. It is high time for us to get rid of this obstacle; kick him out of the way, and if-we cannot help, let us not hinder the on- ward march of another. i _. Call the name of any Negro, and at‘once, you can hear the ndise of the knockers beating their hammers upon the anvil. of envy and. jeal- ousy. Say Booker Washington, and at once, the knockers get: busy. Because they and Washihgton do not agree on some points, fies have no use for him. It is actually disgusting to see to what extent some knockers have gone in their criticism of Washington. Say DuBois, and another set of knockers come forth with abuse and vituperation. Because they cannot agree with him ona few points, they are ready to wield their hammers. No one man possesses all the charactéristics which men admire, It is human to err, therefore, how much better would it be to encourage one another than to try to knock “the block” off of one another, Because we do not like all of Shake- speare’s plays, are we to say, we will liave none of them? No, we take the part we life, and we do not care a continental abont the other part. Let us encourage our men to do our utmost, cease to be envious of any record which different ones may make, get behind and push them up when we see them striving to go forward, and‘cease from swinging our hammers so recklessly on the least difference of opinion. - < Why, right here in Chatham County there are men who have done remarkably well, and yet who could do much.more if given the right encouragement. We nced to learn the lesson that no man has _a cor- ner on all the things for which mankind strives. The man, who makes a liying “chasing the dollars,” may be and generally is thoroughly posted on money matters, but he is not an authority on the latest scientilie inventions. The school teacher may be an author- ity in matters pertaining to school, and, is able to give the banker all kinds of points about current events, etc. The banker ought not be envious of the school teacher’s store’ of information ‘hor should the teacher be envious of the banker’s store of “‘long green.? The trou- ble is that some men want to be the, whole show—a thing which is impossible, No one man can have thefmost money, the best education, be the best writer, the best speaker, the most influential in the com- munity, the most popular, in short, no one man can be the “‘wholo cheese.” Let us get rid of Mr. Envy-and then encourage the business man to make more money, the doctor to become moreskillfal, the teacher ta be more thorough, the preacher to be more upright, the laborer to be more thrifty and economical, and the people as ¢ whole to get together for.it is just as true today as of old that “in union there is strength.” : A Progressive Company And Its Efficient General * Superintendent 7 . wa = - ay - Lif s eee J aN Pome e iG ee \ EMSs eae a Pacer 0 an Var ea eee Be Se Se Pe aaa LO ar os ee se ieee oe eae os gaara = Ry Bees oe 5 7 4 : ‘The company that you will event- ually join, that is if you are seck- ing the best, is the’ old reliable Pilgrim Health and Life Insurance company of Augusta.

Now they save that and put the money tnto homes and family com- forts, But the managers of the American ‘Federation of Labor have worked hard, and long to barness them. | The trust has sent small bales of money and last winter 18 “organizers” to tle up Battle Creek. They hired halls, gave picture shows, smokers, etc, as an investment, looking to rich retirns when they succeeded in hav- ing them tied hand and foot. But they falled and the. last of these “organizers” left Battle Creek on May ist saying “It's no use.” ‘The workmen knew the record of this great trust and formed their own association to protect their rights and also to protect them from the big Labor Trust. In Philadelphia some 4000 indepen- dent street car men, who mainly had familles, bad thelr own unfon and re- fused to join the big trust, preferring to ho free to work or not as they pleased. 5 But the trust planned to force them into the fee-paying ranks, so a strike was ordered to compel ‘the traction compahy to kick out these men and hire only Labor ‘Trust members. It was not a question of wages ‘or hours but to push the'frea men out of their positions where they were earn- {ng good money to support thelr famt- les.” The strike was ordered, not to ralse wages or reduce hours, remem- der, but solely to throw ont members of ‘an independent union and make places only for Labor Trust members, and thus show the Independent men they could not earn a living unless they first paid ‘fees to the trust man- agers. Incidentally the people of Philadel- phia must ‘submit to no car service, rioting and bloodshed with millions in losses while these fee-hunting, noto- sety seeking trust leaders were. teach: ing the world that industry cannot be carried on ‘except by worknten. who firet bend the kneé, bow the head and pay fees, How these men as strike leaders love to’sce their names in the papers voted.

The workman {s absolutely at the mercy of this band of men who have secured and hold control. Many and many an honest workman has raised his voico and appealed to hig fellows to rise and throw off the yoke of Gompers, et al. But, as one writes, “At every convention of the American Federation of Labor, strong opposition comes up but at the crit- {cal moment the impassioned orator appears and most dramatically puts the spot light on the leader and covers him with a mawkish film of ‘martyr- dom’ and the emotional delegates yell in delight, forgetting the instructions of the peaceful workingmen at home who desire to free themaelves from the odlum of membership under the great advocates of strike, boycott, vio- Yence and hate."" So we see the unequalled insolence with which these trust leaders pro- pose to “Induce” ministers to pull thelr chestnuts from the fire by preaching modern aggressive and vio- letit labor trust +methods, There Ix a better way to secure Jus- tice for workers, as will appear furth- er along.

Certain Labor Trust members do not hesitate to use violence, dyna- miting of property, burning homes of hudependent men and even murder to force obedience. . ‘The Oil Company doesn't go so far.

For example (just to get a little start with momentum in it.) the male never can understand why, when he loves a woman, she doesn't love him right back just the same as he loves her. This is too deep for him. It's over his head, to put it the other way around. Every time, when he considers this one, the sun gets in his eyes and he mums it. The great mystery, however, which the male mind never has and never will get even a shadowy imitation of a clutch on is this: Why do women love to go shopping? That's the one that has the universal male angora. No mind is capable of understanding it. The explanations of the women as to why they love to go shopping generally are hopelessly unsatisfactory. You know perfectly well that she can't possibly have more than 82 cents, and you know equally well that you yourself are going to be on a limited chocolate eclair allowance at lunch time until pay day, nudges around. Wherefore, naturally, you wonder how and what on and with what she's going shopping. "Oh," she replies ever so gayly, "I didn't say I was going to buy anything, did I, silly? I'm just going shopping, that's all. That same evening you seek to extract a little of the meat of the mystery from her. "Go shopping today?" you ask her. "Yes, and I had a lovely time!" she chirps. "Let's see what you bought," you proceed. "Didn't I tell you, goose, that I was going shopping?" she asks you. And then you get to the heart of it, or try to, with your question. "Look a-here, tell me this, won't you: What fun do you women folks get out of this shopping thing, any how? Where does it come in? You're not there, more often than not, with the price to snag anything when you go shopping. Well, then what's the use? What do you go for? Doesn't it tire you? And isn't it sort o' aggravating to look at all the junk and not get anything? In essence, why do you go shopping when you're not there with the roll to shop with?" "Oh, just to look at the pretty things," she replies, sort o' off-handedly, and that doesn't explain, does it? "But what good does it do you loking at 'em?" "Oh, one likes to know what the new things are." "Well, you find out, and then you have to pass 'em by. Meanwhile, your feet ache you, don't they, going around all those places?" "Oh, one's feet may ache, but it's such fun." -South Dakota Farmer. WE SEE. We see a new state law of Rhode Island prevents children from working evenings.

We see at Coltic park, Long Island city, running from scratch in the one thousand-yard handicap Sheppard breasted the tape a comparatively easy victor in 2.12 2.5, smashing the world's record of 2.13, made in Lon Myers, October 31, 1881, in New York city. Our people here are still discussing the recent victory of Jack Johnson and Jeffries and it is the main topic of conversation wherever colored folks gather. Well, there is no question about the matter, Jack Johnson is about the most talked and written about individual in the United States today, and his people are certainly proud of him. Not only do the colored people praise him, but we see that they are quite a number of whites who are handing him the glad hand, as in one instance attested by the many applauses he receives daily at the theater here where he is exhibiting. The white people here and elsewhere are also containing all kinds. The white papers here and also of writeups, interviews, editorials and caricatures about Jack. 000 Recently we heard a member of our race, a barber, who is very enthusiastice over Johnson, and especially his victory say that there are only three big people in the world today and when asked who the three were he replied, Booker T., Washington, Theodore Roosevelt and Jack Johnson. 000 Well, these three may not be the three stripes on the globe, but they are, in a very large degree of some important note and can always demand respectful attention. 000 There has been much discussion aroused over the exhibition of the motion pictures of the Johnson-Jeffries fight mainly because the black man was the winner; had the white man been the victor there wouldn't have been any preventive measures whatever; the pictures would have been shown universally. As things didn't come out as the whites expected they are trying to suppress the showing of the pictures. Many cities and towns have passed measures to prevent the pictures being shown. There was much opposition here also, and Mayor Gaynor was asked to prohibit it, but he said there was no law to stop it, and he wasn't going to make any change on the law to suit the opposers. 000 Mayor Gaynor was elected on the Democratic ticket and his term will last four years; three and a half years more. There will be an election for a governor of this state this fall and there was talk of nominating Mr. Gaynor for a candidate. The mayor, however, believes he can do considerable good for the benefit of his people just where he is, so, therefore, he is not particularly anxious about the governorship, not as yet but there is a lot of time yet and people change their minds occasionally. Mayor Gaynor is one of the best mayors the city has had for quite awhile, and his administration is appreciated by all people. He is now busy eliminating all the graft, abuses and other irregularities of the various departments of the various administrations. 000 The mayor also believes in doing things according to law and not by reason of his power of office alone, as is illustrated by his remarks recently regarding the picture fights. The mayor pays special attention to all complaints of the people and where there is a remedy it is quickly applied. A recent case was that of the Newdealers' association of the city. These people complained to the mayor that before they could get their license they had to pay a lot of graft to the different aldermen and politicians before they could secure their license. The mayor has promised to investigate the matter fully, so there will be no more graft paid aldermen by the newdealers. The mayor is right, many people like the law to be interpreted for their own special benefit, disregarding the fact that there is also another side to everything. Mr. Francis V. Oliver chief of the bureau of licenses here in reporting about the fight pictures to the mayor said: "Before my appointment moving pictures of prize fights were shown and are being shown at present. Until the recent fight no one objected that the law forbids them or makes it a final offense to show them, and I know of no such law." 000 Mr. Oliver state briefly and clearly the situation of fight pictures that have been shown before and pictures worst than fighting, but as the black man beats the white man in the latest fight pictures there is a general howling about the degrading of morals and effect on the minds of children and many other filmsy excuses. Anybody with ordinary sense can readily see why the pictures are not wanted to be shown. 000 Mayor Gaynor has been in office just about six months but since he has taken on the government of this city he has wrought many beneficial changes in various matters in regards to the people's welfare and benefit. Judging from the various newspaper opinions from time to time regarding his administration the people seemed to be quite satisfied with his presence at the city hall, and in the mayor's chair.

I have been sick several times, but never in my life did I experience such awful suffering as with this eczema. I had made up my mind that death was near at hand, and I longed for that time when I would be at rest. I had tried many different doctors and medicines without success, and my mother brought me the Cuticura Remedies, insisting that I try them. I began to feel better after the first bath with Cuticura Soap, and one application of Cuticura Ointment. "I continued with the Cuticura Soap and Cuticura Ointment, and have taken four bottles of Cuticura Resolvent, and consider myself well. This was nine years ago and I have had no return of the trouble since. Any person having any doubt about this wonderful cure by the Cuticura Remedies can write to my address.

To impress on young children just what should and what should not be done and why, is among the most trying problems of parents, as evidenced by the recent experience of a West Philadelphia mother. Last Sunday she asked her small son, aged eight, to carry a chair for her from the dining room to the parlor. He started off willingly, but in the hall he tripped and fell. Amid the crash could be heard the boy giving vent to utterances that would have done credit to a pirate of ancient days. The mother was taken by surprise and was greatly shocked. She gave the boy a long and serious talk on the subject of profanity. This apparently did not make the right impression, for when she concluded the boy adder to her discomfiture by exclaiming, "I am sorry I swore, mamma, but I forgot it was Sunday." All the Difference. The professor, was delivering an eloquent address on cruelty to animals, and to illustrate how a little judicious forethought would eliminate to a great extent the sufferings that even small insects are subject to, said: "As I was coming through the hall tonight I saw a bald-headed gentleman very harshly treat a little innocent house-fly which had alighted on his head. "Now, if there was any justification for such bad temper, I would be quite justified in indulging in it at the present moment, for a fly has just alighted on the back of my head. I can't see it, but I can feel it. "Possibly some of you can see it now, it is on the top of my head.

In high praise of the program and of those who participated: The Grand Chapter session commenced on Tuesday morning, presided over by the Royal Grand Matron, Mrs. Viola E. Hart, and the Royal Grand Patron, Sol. C. Johnson. The beautiful opening of the Grand Chapter proved of much interest, and soon after organization was perfected. Royal Grand' Patron Johnson was the first to render a report. It was receivel with appaluse. Royal Grand Mairon Hart gave a detailed account of her stewardship and she was commended for the same. The short and accurate report of the Grand Treasurer, Mrs. Nellie Hardy, also met the approval of the Grand Chapter. Our faithful and efficient Grand Secretary, Mrs. M. L. Ayers, rendered a well-prepared report, and the auditing committee uaid her a compliment for her work. The last report was that of the Grand Lecturer. This was also approved. The various committees went hard to work, and all rendered such reports showing the Grand Chapter to be in excellent condition. One of the great signs of progress among the Chapters is shown by the harmony that exists and the smallness of the work of the committee on Appeals and Grievances. During the year a large number of chapters have been organized with some of the best ladies in the state. The collections for all purposes were very flattering. The endowment department is in a flourishing condition. Many death claims were paid during the year. The ladies have many thousands of dollars as a balance on hand. The chapters have contributed very liberally toward the support of the Orphane Home, and many of them have sent in special contributions for the repair of the building damaged by lightning the first of the year. Tuesday night a very appropriate memorial services was held at which time the impressive memorial ceremony of the rite was carried out, with a few sentences eulogistic of the dead of each Chapters by its representative. This also proved of much interest not only to the delegates, but to the visitors. The election was held Wednesday, with the following result: BSH. C. Johnson, Royal Grand Pastron. Mrs. Viola Hart, Royal Grand Ma- tron. Mrs. J. C. Miller, Royal Grand A. Matron. Mrs. Nellie Hardy, Royal Grand Treasurer. Mrs. M. L. Ayers, Royal Grand-Secretary. Miss Effie Harper, Royal Grand Conductress. Mrs. E. L. Thomas, Royal Grand A. Conductress. Mrs. Willie G. Hill, Royal Grand Lecturer. Mr. S. S. Mincey, Grand Associate Patron. Rev. A. J. Gould, Grand Prelate. Mrs. Grace Sweet, Grand Warder. Mrs. Willie Strong, Grand Herald. Mrs. Maggie Mapp, Grand Truth. Mrs. Anna Roberts, Grand Faith. Mrs. Annie Babcock, Grand Wisdom. Mrs. L. E. Wright, Grand Charity. Brothers J. W. Weston and William Williams, Marshals. Mr. D. Harris, Sentinel. Miss Bessie E. Foster and Rev. A. R. Stallings, Auditors. These officers were installed by Past Patron L. H. Burdell. A spiritited contest came up over the selection of the next place of meeting. The places nominated were Pelham (Cordele, Fitzgerald, Atlanta, Sparta and Hawkinsville. Sparta was easily the winner, and this victory was achieved greatly by the personality of Brother G. W. Wynn, who worked hard to secure the meeting. Much business was attended to, and the best of spirit was shown throughout the session. It was the first attendance of many of the delegates, and all of them expressed great satisfaction at the success of the same. All of the delegates went away pledged to work harder for the success of the rite during the year. Grand Master Ingram Scared. Brother Joseph of St. Simons on the Warpath. St. Simons Island, Ga., Aug. 19.—The Savannah Tribune: Please publish the following article for me, so all true-hearted Odd Fellows will know part of speech of B. S. Ingram made in one of the leading churches of Brunswick, Ga., last night. His statements were very unbecoming a gentleman and a brother, by saying he is going around Georgia and put "niggers" out of the lodges who are against the present administration and put "niggers" in who are in favor of the present administration, and also the kickers. As for myself, I am not in favor of the present administration and if they can put me out I will be very glad to be tried before some able impartial committee who understand the laws of our beloved order. I want the Grand Master to know that the Grand Lodge, the B. M. C., Executive Committee and the Subcommittee of Management all belong to the subordinate lodges, and not the lodges belong to them. They are hired servants, and the servants cannot be greater than their masters. You think so, but is not so among the wise, and why don't you address us as brothers and sisters, instead of calling us in open church before the public you "niggers" repeatedly. I want you to know we are not "niggers;" we are Negroes. The word, "nigger" derived from the original Latin means black; it does not apply to tawny or olive colored; it means quite black. By that if Ingram's statement meant what he has said, he will put the black Odd Fellows out of their respective lodges if they kick against his order. He has also claimed that he has put about two hundred kickers out of their lodges. By next week I will make the two hundred and one or begin the two hundred and one that will put out. So we have reason to believe now that the reason Brother Singleton could not succeed Wilson is because it was a "nigger," with the meaning of Latin. Again: Ingram further stated, in his public remarks, that no one will run against him for District Grand Master, because their record is not clean enough. As for myself, I have a clear, clean record from my birth. I was born clean and keep clean and undefiled up to now. Ingram, furthermore, encouraged wrong-doing among his district deputies by telling them to charge every member in association before they become members four dollars apiece and paid the subcommittee twelve dollars and fifty cents, district Grand Lodge two dollars and all the rest of the money belongs to you. Ingram's statement in that is contrary to the General Laws, page 51, sections 1 and 2, and page 52, section 6, edition 1908, and read also decision of subcommittee, volume 1, page 23 and page 249, you will find Ingram has led your wrong all the way, my brethren, and you must stop taking advantage of your neighbor and ignorance. I have learned that some of the jack-leg deputies are going around visiting lodges and collecting money from the ignorant lodges. All that is contrary to the laws of our order. Ingram further stated, in his public remarks, when he became Grand Master, he found only nineteen dollars in the treasury. By that Wilson was right when he claim the Odd Fellows were bankrupt or insolvent, providing if Ingram's statement is true. The true condition of our treasury in the state never will be known except we adopt the rule of the General Laws of England concerning auditors, reading as follows: "The accounts of this society shall be audited by two persons, one of whom shall be a public accountant, who shall examine and attest all the books, statements and stock of this society and shall submit to the trustees and board of directors a written statement of the result of their audit." Ingram further stated in public he will not sign any application to open any new lodge except it came through his district deputy. I have noticed Ingram is not acquainted with the General Laws of our order. He needs to be introduced to it. Ingram has no more authority to sign an application to open a new lodge than the Zulu king of Africa or a guerrilla king of the Philippine Islands have. Ingram, please notice in the General Laws, page 51, sections 1 and 2, page 52, sections 3 and 4, and you will find who is to sign it and he has nothing more to do but sign it and put the two dollars in his pocket and whenever he shall fail to sign it by your instruction we will send applications directly to the subcommittee. Ingram is going around scaring the ignorant ones by saying if you kick against me, I will put you out and your three hundred dollars' policy will be canceled. I would like very much for Ingram to know that my cheque is good for three hundred dollars any day in the week, and I have only one boy, who gets five dollars a month placed in the bank for him, and if I should be called away now, I will leave behind me for him and his mother thousands, and you cannot scare me about three hundred dollar policy and stop me from using or exercising my free speech and prerogative in a right way. I have now in my possession American General Laws, also English General Laws, and you cannot put me out and keep me out of the Odd Fellows, because I can go to my native land and be an Odd Fellow, the same day I get there. English General Laws read thus: "Seamen — and in special cases, landsmen—shall be eligible to initiation the same night they are proposed, being a regular lodge night or a special meeting called for the purpose presided over by the N. G. or a P. N. G.; provided, the necessary certificates as to age and health are obtained and that two or more members are to certify as to character." Why don't Ingram address us like Hon. W. D. Creswill will address the Sir Knight? Why doesn't he address us like the Grand Lady, in the person of Sister R. L. Barnes, addresses WOODLAWN ATLANTA, GA. $9.05 Tickets on sale September 16, 17, 18 and night train of September 20, final limit September 28.

A. her brothers and sisters, instead of that way of calling us "niggers, which means quite black in Latin. Respectfully, P. C. JOSEPH. SOCIAL WHIFFS FROM LIBERTY COUNTY. The picnic of Ebenezer Presbyterian Sunday school, Limerick, Ga., came off successfully on Friday, 26th of August. There were many visitors from Savannah and-Florida, as well as from, remote parts of this county. Among the Savannah visitors was Miss McIntosh, daughter of Prof. McIntosh, who is spending some time with Prof. and Mrs. C. C. Cassels of Arcadia. On Saturday, 20th of August, the Rough Riders of Limerick went to McIntosh and played a baseball match with the Cow Boys of McIntosh. The score stood 5 to 0 in favor of the Rough Riders. A return match was played at Limerick on the day of the picnic above referred to, the Cow Boys again losing. The score was 24 to 10. Have you ever visited Woodlawn Park? If not, you owe it to yourself and to your family to go out and inspect the beautiful residential Park. Already such people as the Rev. Daniel Wright, the Rev. W. M. Gray, Dr. J. Walter Williams and many of the leaders among Savannah's colored citizenship have purchased lots at Woodlawn. Never before in the history of Savannah has such a proposition been offered to the colored people. Woodlawn is a home park. It is a place to live and raise your family. Why pay rent in a miserable house on a two by four lot in the hot and dusty city, when for less money you can live in your own home on a beautiful lot, ten times the size of a Savannah lot and raise your vegetables and chickens? It is not a question of whether you can afford to buy a Woodlawn lot—it is simply a question of whether you can afford to let such an opportunity get away from you. You can secure free car tickets from Geo. W. Jaqobs and Chas. McDowell. Take Isle of Hope car and get off at Woodlawn, just beyond Sandfly. On Sunday, 4th instant, the funeral of Miss Olive Lambright will be preached in Midway temple, Arcadia, at 11 o'clock a. m.f.l by the pastor, Rev. J. W. Pennington. Mr. Jos. J. Brown, a solicitor for the Savannah Tribune, will visit us soon and it is hoped that he will be successful in getting a number of new subscribers. The Tribune is one of the cleanest colored papers in América, and we readily recommend it to the homes of the good people of Liberty county. Friends of Dr. A. R. Wilson, pastor of Day's Memorial Presbyterian church will regret to learn that he is seriously ill at his home, Theber, Ga. Dr. Wilson is very widely known and his many friends wish him a speedy recovery. Mr. F. S. Frasier, the popular postmaster of Limerick, Ga., made a flying visit to Savannah last week, having formerly lived in Savannah Mr. Frasier has a number of friends in the city and his visits are always very pleasant. Master Simon Johnson of Limerick, Ga., who has been spending several weeks with relatives at Groveland, Ga., spent several days in Savannah the guest of his cousin, Mrs. Rosa B. Barnard. Moses Understood. Moses, and the Egyptian, too, knew, that rats spread the plague. There are several mentions in the Old Testament that prove this beyond the shadow of doubt. Cats and snakes catch rats, therefore cats and snakes were objects of veneration to old Egypt. Women Church Officers. A woman has just been appointed church warden at Walsgram-on-Sowe in Warwickshire, England. She is the ninth woman to hold such an office in England. There is also one woman, sexton in a small church in Lincolnshire. The office is hereditary and has been in her family for more than two hundred years. ae oe eee ee z= 2 SEE =f See == oS a ‘Sais re Sane ae es .
