VOL. XXVI. An Important Meeting of Big Ironmasters. First General Meeting of the American Iron and Steel Institute In Held In New York—Iron and Steel Manufacturers From Many Parts of the World Are In Attendance—Plan To Control the Markets of the World. New York (Special).—Iron makers from many parts of the world met at the Waldorf-Astoria here, in attendance at the first general meeting of the American Iron and Steel Institute. No such gathering of steel makers has ever taken place before in this country, and from it results may flow which will revolutionize that gigantic industry in some of its important branches. The American Iron and Steel Institute is a new departure, inasmuch as its aim is to deal not only with the technical part of the industry, but to take up its commercial side as well, and hence invade the domain of prices so important to the world at large. Other organizations, notably the Iron and Steel Institute of Great Britain, have existed for the exchange of views regarding the technical side of steel making and have held many important meetings, but the meeting today was probably the most important step yet taken toward securing what for a long time has been under discussion, namely a world-wide corporation among the makers of steel and iron for mutual protection in the markets of the world in the matter of productions and prices. The movement looking to such a thing has been going on quietly for sometime. Prominent among those who have been trying to bring it about are Judge Gary, of the United States Steel Corporation, but associated with him in these efforts have been representatives of many of the so-called independents and the foreign steel makers. Already several meetings of the new institute have been held, but it was not until the meeting of today that the American iron masters rubbed shoulders with many of the great iron masters of such countries as Great Britain, France and Germany in the new movement to secure cooperation. Chief among these foreign steel makers, perhaps, was Baron Von Bodenhausen, managing director of the great Krupp works at Essen. Colonel Sir Charles Allen, a nephew of Sir Henry Bessemer and president of Henry Bessemer & Company, of Sheffield, England, was another. All told, there were thirty-eight of the foreign steel makers present, representatives of practically all big foreign steel works. STUDY PANAMA'S NEEDS. Preparations For Taft's Trip To The Canal Zone. Washington, D. C. (Special).—Preparations are being made here for President Taft's trip to the Canal Zone. He will sail from Charleston, S. C., November 10, on the armored cruiser North Carolina, conveyed by the cruiser's sister ship Montana. He will be in Panama but a few days, but hopes to obtain sufficient information to guide him in desiling with several matters of importance affecting the administration of the Canal Zone government. No specific form of government having been prescribed as yet for that country. President Taft, in his executive capacity, is the supreme authority there. Mr. Taft desires to inform himself also, concerning the extent and character of the fortifications needed, the fixing of the tolls for vessels going through the canal, the proposed increase in wages, the future management of the Panama Railroad, the best form of permanent government for the Canal Zone and the regulation of the sale of coal at the terminal points. The government may itself sell coal, in order to prevent extortion or monopoly. The President may ask the coming Congress to deal with some of these questions when he prepares his annual message. Wash Machine Kills. Brigham City, Utah (Special).—A simple device attached to the wringer of a washing machine operated with deadly effect when it drew from a live wire more than 2,000 volts of electricity and dealt death to Thomas McMaster and his sister, Verna, and shocked the man's wife into unconsciousness. ART DEALER UNDER ARREST Federal Authorites Seize Noted New York Establishment. New York (Special).—The entire Fifth avenue establishment of the five Duveen brothers, known the world over as dealers in rare art objects and antiques, was seized by Federal officers, and Benjamin J. Duveen, the only member of the firm now in the city, was placed under arrest, charged with conspiracy to defraud the government out of customs dues. Henry A. Wise, United States district attorney, in asking for extraordinarily heavy bail when the prisoner was arraigned, said that the frauds would reach more than $1,000,000 and that all five brothers were implicated. Ball was fixed at $50,000, which was promptly given and Duveen was released. Special agents of the Department of Justice, armed with warrants, conducted the raid on the aristocratic establishment. After placing Benjamin J. Duveen under arrest a, search for undervalued articles was begun and, more than a vanload of "suspicious" goods was found. It was then decided to place the entire establishment under seizure. Duveen surrendered the keys of the safe and desks and was taken to the Federal building. When the prisoner was taken before United States Commissioner Shields, District Attorney Wise, asking for heavy ball, explained that the case was the most important one the government has thus far had to deal with in connection with importation frauds. He suggested that $100,000 would be the proper amount of ball. He assured the commissioner that he was in possession of evidence concerning a series of revenue frauds aggregating more than $1,000,000, which had been systematically carried on by the five brothers and another man mentioned in the complaint. The commissioner decided, however, to set the ball at $80,000. Mr. Wise, explaining the case, said that information was recently placed in his hands tending to show that the Duveens had for years been defrauding the government out of customs duties on works of art and antique furniture imported from abroad by means of false consular invoices. The records at the custom house were hurriedly overhauled and the records seemed to substantiate the charges. RECKLESS AUTOISTS HURT. They Crash, At 45 Miles An Hour, Into a Freight Train. Johnstown, Pa. (Special).—Tearing through the street at 45 miles an hour an automobile collided with a heavy freight engine at a crossing, seriously injuring the five occupants of the automobile, one perhaps fatally. George McFeaters, superintendent of the electrical department of the Lorain Steel Company, who was driving the car, is in the Memorial Hospital with a fractured skull and internal injuries. DESCENDANT OF COLUMBUS. Caesar Columbus Wants To Become a Citizen. Pittsburg (Special).—Caesar Columbus, of Eastville, Pa., appeared in the United States Circuit Court here and declared he had been waiting for Columbus Day before asking for naturalization papers. Columbus was born at Mazziit, Italy, July 4, 1887, and has been in this country since July 30, 1905. He is intelligent, and said he could trace his line without a break to the man who discovered America. Sioux Indians Return. $e$ New York (Special).—A. party of 31 Stoux. Indians, en route, to the Pine Ridge agency in South Dakota were brought in by the steamer President Lincoln, which arrived from Hamburg.

Buried beneath ions of, debris, a man's body was found on the second floor of the Baumbardt Printing Company plant, adjoining the wrecked Times' building. This makes 22 known-dead in the Times disaster. SAVANNAH, GA.; SATURDAY, OCTOBER 22, 1910. BATTLESHIP MAINE MAY FLOAT AGAIN President Taft Authorizes the Raising of Vessel. SPAIN WILL BE ASKED TO BE PRESENT The Work Is To Be Done Under the Direction Of An Engineer Officer Of the Army—Paramount Question To Be Decided Is Whether the Explosion Took Place Within Or Without—The Disposition Of the Old Hulk Has Not Yet Been Settled. Beverly (Special)—President Taft finally approved plans for raising the wreck of the battleship Maine from Havana Harbor, which calls for the completion of the work on or before the thirteenth anniversary of the destruction of the war vessel, February 15 next. The work is to be done according to plans made by army engineers and to be under direction of an engineer officer. The President believes that the paramount question in the raising of the Maine is the determining for all time of the cause of the explosion, and whether the source of destruction was from the outside or inside the vessel. For this reason he desires that the work shall be retained in the hands of the army engineers and not let out by contract. By direction of the President, Spain has been invited to send a representative to Havana to be present during the work of exposing-and removing the wreck. The disposition of the old hulk remains to be settled. The army engineers believe it will be possible to float the after two-thirds of the vessel. The forward third, where the explosion wrought the greatest havoc and killed the greatest number of the crew while they were asleep in their quarters, is believed to be too far gone ever to be taken as a whole and the wreckage will be removed piecemeal. If Congress approves the recommendation of the engineers, the wreck will be taken out to sea and given a ceremonial burial in deep water, there to remain until the end of time. Various plans have been suggested of exhibiting the wreck and preserving it, but none of these finds favor with the authorities at Washington. The wreck is now in 25 feet of water. It has sunk but one foot in the $12\frac{1}{2}$ years since it went down. Underneath the wreck soft mud has been found to a depth of five to eight feet, and beneath this there is hard clay. Congress has already appropriated $300,000 for the work. "HOLY ROLLERS" ARRESTED. They Were Dancing and Chanting Around Body of Boy. Atlanta, Ga. (Special)—Rev. E. H. Spencer, one of the leaders of the religious sect known as "Holy Rollers," and F. K. Key were arrested here when officers entered the Key home and found Spencer and 12 other "Holy Rollers" dancing and chanting around the body of Emil Chapel, a 15-year-old boy, whom they were attempting to convert. It is said that the boy had been in a hypnotic state for several hours. Charges of maintaining a public nulsance were lodged against the minister and Key. Weds Her Adopted Son. Aurora, N. Y., (Special).—The marriage of Mrs.' Bridget Johnson, 72 years old, to her adopted son, August Bendel, 22 years old, at Yorkville, has stirred the wrath of the children of the gray-haired bride. They retained a law firm to bring suit to have the marriage annulled. Charging that Bendel duped their aged mother into marrying him so that he could obtain possession of her property, valued at about $5,000, John and James Healy and Mrs. Mary Meyers, children of Mrs. Johnson by a first marriage, will go into court and ask that the marriage be declared illegal. Miss Hayes Engaged. Denver (Special). — Miss Lucy Hayes, daughter of J. Addison Hayes, a Colorado Springs banker, and granddaughter of Jefferson Davis, is engaged to marry George Bowyer Young, son of the late Harvey-Young, the artist. The wedding will take place during the winter. Four Dead In Wreck. Ridgville, Ind. (Special).—Four men were killed, four probably fatally and 14 seriously injured in a head-on collision between a through northbound freight train and a work train on the Grand Rapids and Indiana Railroad. five miles north of here. RAILROADS ARE PROSTRATED The Fren h Premier Calls Strike An Insurrection. Paris (Special).—The strike of the railroad men, which threatens to spread throughout the length, and breadth of France was denounced by Premier Bland as "an insurrection purely, built upon criminal foundations." The, Premler declared that the strike was called while negotiations were going on through himself and the Minister of Public Works for an adjustment of grievances, and he promised that the instigators of the strike would be criminally prosecuted. The River Seine, which in January threatened to destroy Paris, now looms up in the role of savior. The government has made arrangements to rush food supplies to Paris from the sea, requisitioning all tugs, boats and barges to meet the crisis brought about by the stoppage of the railway service, and ease the food market, which is already hard hit. The city is threatened with famine unless supplies arrive soon. The employees of the Eastern and the Paris, Lyons and Mediterranean Railroads have not yet to any appreciable, extent responded to the leaders' call to strike, and the government's weapon of mobilization has induced some of those employed on the Northern Road to return to their posts. Nevertheless, the Northern and Western Railroads are prostrated. The call to the colors has been ignored by the large majority, and at mass meetings held the strikers reiterated their determination not to respond to the call. Much destruction has been wrought on the Western system, where the strikers and their supporters have held up and derailed trains, blocked tracks, destroyed signals, ripped up rails and cut telephone and telegraph wires. The government has ordered the arrest of a score of the strike leaders and Instructions have been issued to the troops to use severe measures wherever occasion required. COAL FOR 6,000 YEARS. Gov. Clark Says There Is Plenty In Alaska. Juneau, Alaska (Special).—Gov. Walter E. Clark, who has returned from a 70-day tour of Alaska, said that in his annual report to the President he would make a recommendation concerning the opening of the great coal fields of the territory. It is understood he favors leasing the land, but he declined to outline his plan further than to say that it provided for protection of the people against the coal falling into the hands of monopolies. The governor said: "Alaska is entirely capable of supporting a large permanent population, but more liberal treatment by the Federal government is necessary to the development of the territory. The Alaska coal at the present rate of consumption on the Pacific Coast would last, the coast 6,000 years or more. The coal that Alaska is now burning is imported largely from foreign countries and costs $18 a ton. A few miles away is much better coal locked in the ground." Manuel Not Worried. Gibraltar (Special).—King Manuel spends the forenoon in the gardens adjoining the government house. He appears to be well and gives no evidence of worry. Two Portuguese were arrested as suspicious characters, fined and expelled from the garrison. A Portuguese merchantman arrived in the harbor flying the flag of the Republic of Portugal. Nun Commits Suicide. Lisbon (Special). — An English nun, named Tipping, whose mind had become deranged as a result of her experiences during the recent fighting between street mobs and the cloricals, committed suicide. She jumped from a window on the third floor of the house occupied by the secretary of the British legation, where she had been given shelter, and was instantly killed. Prepared For His Funeral. St. Augustine, Fla. (Special) After tying crepe on his front door, donning burial clothes and writing a note to an undertaker directing the disposition of his body, Giles Phelps, a well-known business man, committed suicide by inhaling gas. National League Of Postmasters. Chattanooga, Tenn. (Special).—The National League of Postmasters elected the following officers: H. K. Hong, New York, president; Alexander Archie, Wisconsin, vice-president; P. C. C. Young, Illinois, secretary.

I cannot remember how long I had slept imbedded in rock, but when I came to myself, a pick from a miner struck me, and I woke from my long sleep of many, many years. Then I was put into a greater crusher, which separated me from my rock bed, and I was carried to a place where I remember myself being heated in a great pot until I ran down like water into a box. This box was called a mould and after I cooled sufficiently to be removed, I was taken away from the smeltery, as it was called, and was christened an "ingot." I had a shape like a wedge. Afterwards, I, along with many other "ingots," was carried away down into a dark room called a "money vault" in the Philadelphia mint. How long I remained there I am unable to say, for it was so dark that I could not tell how many days passed. However, just when I was growing very impatient and beginning to think that my peculiar experiences had ended, some men took me on a pair of trucks into the silver melting room, where I was cast into a strip. O, my, but this was a most trying experience! I was placed between two great steel rollers which seemed as if they would crush the very life out of me, and tear me all apart, but luckily I held together and came out on the other side mashed flat. Then the man put me into another roller and I came out of this one still flatter and finally I was so stretched out by this process that I was more like a long band of hoop iron than a chisel or wedge. Then I was run under a machine which cut me out into a round piece, which 'size I have remained. After being welged, I was put into a vat of acid and came out bright and clean, O, how proud I was! Then, after being, taken upstalks again, a lady put me into another great machine and before I could imagine what was going to be done, to me, this machine 'came together on me. If I could have screamed, I certainly would have done sd, for I TOMBSTONE, ARIZ., FRANK The Medical Journal prints the following and credits it to an unidentified "Lay Exchange."

On one side of me was an American eagle and on the other side was the beautiful goddess of liberty. Then I began an entirely different career. Men admired me and placed values on me. I was worth one hundred cents, or ten dimes, which looked like baby dollars; two half dollars, which looked like dollars nearly grown. I was then placed in a strong box and shipped to New York, where I was put into another dark room and locked up with great locks, and iron walls. After coming out of this room I went into a dry goods store. Next, a little boy kept me to spend Christmas. Then he gave me to a candy man who brought me to a drummer, who brought me to the sunny south, where a colored washerwoman got a hold of me and gave me to the church. The preacher then took me and gave me to a man who put me in a strong box in the cellar of his house, where I stayed so long until I turned black. I learned afterwards this man was called a miser. The miser gave me and several others for a coat, then I went back into a bank. One night some men came and broke into the bank and robbed it, taking me away with them, and kept me hid in the woods not knowing what would become of me next. Last night I was lying on the ground and some of the robbers were gambling over me. At last one shot the other. He fell dead over me, and his blood dyed me red. I cannot get the stain off and I am a very miserable dollar, but I have seen many others that were happy, so here I am wondering what will become of me next.

We may be wrong, for no one is infallible in questions of taste; nevertheless, we opine and make bold to maintain that the most delicious product of the gardener's toll and the housekeepers' magic is the fried tomato. To us it is utterly inconceivable that the ancients should have considered the fried tomato polisonous, and that their view should be held by many persons of intelligence today. But, of course, it makes a difference who does the frying.—Newark News. Prayer Receptacle A deaf old lady in Ansonia, Conn., sent for a clergyman, as she was very sick, and needed ministerial consolation. After talking on general religious topics, the good man inquired if it was her wish that he should pray with her "Sartinly, minister, sartinly," was the reply. The sick one fumbled around her bed, and finally produced an old-fashioned car trumpet, with the request, as the minister opened his prayer book, that he should "pray into that." Discoveries at Venice. Some very interesting discoveries have been made in the course of excavation work around the island of Lido, at Venice, where a number of ancient pieces of artillery have been found beneath six feet of mud. The cannon are all in a state of excellent preservation, though it is clear, from their construction, that they must date back to the period almost immediately after the discovery of gunpowder, and it is believed that they will prove of very great artistic and historic value. Mrs. Nippy Grumbles. "This is a provoking world," said Mrs. Nippy. "I go down to the stores to buy things that I want, and I can't get a blessed clerk to wait on me—in hot weather, at least. But forty or fifty peddlers a day call me to the door at home and offer to sell me things I don't need at all." Another Novelty. It was after the stone-laying ceremony, and a wire was sent to the builder with the news: "Stone laid with great eclat."

One good turn deserevs two on your part. Since his emancipation, the Negro has made the world sit up and take notice of his unparalleled pace in the race of life. In fact, 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 Negro has come down the last lap and cross the wire winning by a nose. In the parlance of slang, there has been "some class" to the kind of progress he has made. The world must applaud and does applaud us for the record which we have made. Now, the Negro is but a child race, and as such, has very many faults which time and intelligence must eradicate. We cannot expect to be perfect all at once; but we all aught to be willing to do our best toward bringing the race up to a 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 downfall of many more, is Mr. Envy—monarch 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 onward march of another.—Savannah Tribune. THE MAN FARTHEST DOWN. Principal Booker T. Washington, who describes the Negro problem as "The Problem of the Man Farthest Down," is taking a journey through those parts of Europe in which man who is "farthest down" lives and works. His purpose is to compare the people who do the rough work in the fields, on the public works, and in the mines of Europe, with the masses of the Negro people who do the hard work in the south. The result of his observations will be published in a series of articles in the Outlook of New York city, Principal Washington will probably visit three or four of the large cities of Europe, notably London and Berlin, and will endeavor to make accurate estimates of the relative condition and opportunities of the people he meets there, as compared with those of the Negro in the south, with whom he is probably better acquainted than any other living man. He will also study the agricultural regions of southern Europe, where the bulk of our immigrant population comes from. Principal Washington believes that when this country comes to a more accurate understanding of the difficulties that the masses of the working people in other parts of the world have to struggle against, it will have gone far toward solving our race problem.—Tuskegee Student. Temperance Topics Gary, Ind., opened her doors to saloons last spring. During the month of May, one out of every 40 persons in the city was arrested for drunkenness. From Little Rock, Ark., to Dallas, Tex., there is not a single saloon. This condition was made possible by the "going dry" of Marshall by a clean majority of over 200 votes. Judge C. M. Seward, after a careful investigation, charges the violators of the liquor law with being the instigators of the recent Newark, Ohio, mob riots. The prosecuting attbruney of Coldwater, Mich., has issued only two warrants in over a month. There is only one prisoner in the jail. This shows what can be done in a community in which there are no saloons to breed crime. Because Simon McKenzie of Aneta. N. D., had been waging a fierce fight against the saloons the liquorites saturated his twenty-year-old son with kerosene oil and put fire to him. The child suffered untold agony. In Mocklenburg, Germany, the dining cars and railroad restaurants are compelled to serve non-alcoholic drinks at a low price and to "offer" them as much as they do the alcoholic drinks. The trainmen are allowed 50 per cent off on these drinks, but nothing on the alcoholic drinks. The cool-blooded argument of "money in the business" will sooner or later completely knock out the liquor traffic. The business world is fast learning that the saloon has no place in political economy. Nearly five Panama canals could be paid for in full with the money that is paid out for liquor each year. A man who hopes a great deal will not work. Literary criticism: Love stories speak of the hero "gathering" the heroine in his arms, and we object to the word. It is proper to gather off the line or to gather gooseberries, but not to gather a woman.

Next to eating candy, a child knows no greater joy than to be allowed to handle its mother's false hair. Any gentleman can have a Perfect Fit in my Tailoring Establishment.

CLEMENTS, CITY PASSENGER AND TICKET AGENT The Prince's Pearls By IZOLA FORRESTER "If you are not engaged to him you had no right to accept such a gift." Lorraine smiled slightly, aggravatingly, and lifted her supple, expressive shoulders in a way that intimated it was none of Mr. Maxon's business what she accepted from a certain party. "Doesn't it seem glorious to see dear old New York lift out of the mist again?" she said, leaning over the rail as the liner slipped leisurely up the bay after she passed the Narrows. "I shouldn't think you'd care much about it, or any other shore of your native land," retorted Maxon, bitterly. "You're ready and willing enough to throw up the whole thing and live abroad the rest of your life in some miserable, deserted, moldy old castle in Hungary that's as decrepit and played out as the princely line you will belong to. Lorraine—" "Do be quet. There come the custom house people." "What of it?" Lorraine hesitated and laughed. "I hardly think that mamma has the cash to pay duty on the prince's pearls," she said. "Won't it be a tragedy if they take them away from me?" "I hope they do." Jack Maxon's lips set in a close line. He stood just behind Lorraine, his hands folded, the cap pulled well over his dark eyes, and watched the arrival of the custom people and health off-officers. "Where are they?" asked Mrs. Ellison's voice behind them. She did not look worried at all, merely interested and alert. Lorraine answered without looking up from the dancing, churning waters about the praw. "Around my throat." "Beneath your gown?" Lorraine nodded and smiled, and Mrs. Ellison said no more, but smiled out at New York city's outline complacently. "Jack, my dear, won't you fetch my binoculars?" she said, tactfully. "Marie will give them to you. No. 11, you know, outside to your left. So sweet of you." As Jack strode haughtily away out of hearing she leaned over Lorraine. "Somebody has told that you are wearing the prince's pearls. The newspaper men, I think. One tried to talk to me just now." "How would they know?" Lorraine's tone was curiously disinterested. She was thinking of all Jack Maxon had dared to tell her since they first sighted Sandy Hook that morning. The slender, corseted form of the prince faded almost info obscurity beside Jack's stalwart Americanism, and Lorraine was thinking of many other things besides the pearls. Yet she had told the simple truth. She wore them, the entire five-strand necklace of exquisitely matched sea treasure, beneath her traveling gown of gray serge. And rumor over in Rome and Paris had more than hinted that the pearls were worth close to half a million dollars. The center, pear-shaped pendant alone had come from the turban of the Nadir of Afghanistan once upon a time, and had cost the house of Ravanelli over $200,000. Yet the prince who had purchased it had hung it on the forehead of his Tuscan bride and vowed it too poor an ornament matched against the splendor of her flashing eyes. The present prince had mentioned something of the same sentiment when he had sent the necklace to the Ellisons' hotel the day before they sailed for home. And there had been trouble. "I will never accept such a gift from a man whom I dislike," Lorraine had said, passionately. If you are fool enough to refuse them," said Mrs. Ellison, thoughtfully examining the strands, "I shall accept them for you. You are not engaged yet, dear, and under no obligation. These pearls might be a mere philopena present." "Yes, they might, mamm, they might!" Lorraine's tone of scorn had been indescribable. But the pearls had not been sent back. First, because the prince himself had left for Hungary on a shooting expedition with the crown prince of some little principality, and the pearls remained around Lorraine's throat go the safest place for such a treasure. One mistake she had made. She had worn them openly at the ship's concert. Not that anyone on board had known their history, but Jack Maxon had seen them and noted them, and he alone of their fellow passengers knew that the Ellisons did not have cash or credit enough in the world to buy the smallest pearl on the prince's necklace, not the smallest one, large as a hazelnut, and flawless, and worth ten thousand in the market at Ceylon. Jack had been her faithful adorer and comrade ever since they had built sand tunnels together at Atlantic City years ago. Sometimes, in spite of Mrs. Ellison's careful training, Lorraine would look at Jack and speculate on several points not down in her mother's code of worldly welfare. He was such a splendid pleader. All the way over he had begged and scolded and mada love to her and stormed, and Lorraine had kept silent. And always while she listened to Jack Maxon's pleading she felt the slender strands of pearls press like lead about her throat. Sometimes it seemed as if they would choke her. Mrs. Ellison kept close to her as they landed and went to the custom officers. She had declared everything, everything except the prince's pearls. Jack stood with Lorraine talking earnestly while the trunks were gone through, and Mrs. Ellison answered questions for both in the superbly disinterested, tactful way she had. But all at once Lorraine's quick glances saw what was happening. A young chap had entered quietly and caught her eye. He went to the official who was conducting the appraisal and whispered to him, and that worthy went past Mrs. Ellison straight to Lorraine's side. "You are wearing pearls unde- YOU ARE WEARING PEOPLE UNDECLARED MISST YOU ARE WEARING PEARLS UNDECLARED MISS clared, miss." His tone reached Lorraine from far off. Her mother had turned swiftly to the rescue, but already Lorraine had smiled slightly and nodded her pretty head. "Do you wish to see them?" she asked, and, taking off her gloves, she deliberately unclasped her lace collar and reached back for the gold catch that held the necklace in place. The next instant in reach was crowding forward for a look at the famous Ravenelli pearls. There they lay, in all their delicate, ravishing loveliness, on the palm of the customs officer. Even he was impressed, and hesitated. Then he gave orders. They followed him to the office and waited. "Jack, you could save them," implored Mrs. Ellison, tearfully. "It means so much for our darling girl. It is almost her wedding present from the prince. It is worth a king's ransom. Your father would come to our relief, I know, Jack." "Do you want me to save them, Lorraine?" asked Jack, bending over her, and Lorraine shook her head. Suddenly the official came toward them with a pleasant smile of relief. There was no duty on the pearls, he explained, returning them, for the good and simple reason that the pearls were a clever imitation, very, very clever, but an imitation, and worth about $500 at the outside, if that. They took the ferry back to the railroad station on the Jersey side. Lorraine was weary and wanted to go straight to Lakewood without stopping in New York, and Mrs. Ellison was oddly quiet. She retired to the cabin and left the two out on deck to talk without demur. And, while Jack laid plans for their wedding day, a month hence, Lorraine bent over the rail and laughingly let the- prince's pearls slip through her fingers, down into the green waters of the Hudson. Authorities of Small Town Had Everything Arranged for Quick Action. The whole population of a little suburb to the north of Philadelphia turned out at the celebration of the anniversary of their volunteer fire department. The village was in a state of intense excitement. A number of the inhabitants swarmed about, the platform of, a little bungalow which passed for a station. With a snort the engine of the train carrying the out-of-town visitors announced its arrival as it rounded the curve several hundred yards below the platform. Hand-clasping'among the men and women soon ensued and the visitors were led on a tour of inspection about the town. While admiration was being expressed on all sides by the visitors at sight of the newly crested headquarters and a brand new fire engine, the latest acquisition to the village, a Philadelphia, very much impressed, tapped the captain of the fire brigade on the shoulder, and in a surprised voice inquired, "How do you summon your fire department in case of fire? You don't seem to have either telegraph or telephone connections in the town?" That was the captain's chance and he seized it. "That's easily enough explained, sir," he said. "We send them all a postal card." TALES TOLD OF CHILDREN Amusing-Mixupa Made by Youngsters Grappling With Unfamiliar Problems. A boy, reading the line: "And those who live in cottages are happier than those who sit on thrones," startled his adult hearers by this surprising rendition: "And those who live in cottages are happier than those who sit on thorns." A lazy little girl, reading of St. Philip's experience in the desert, "skipped" when the teacher's attention temporarily was distracted with similarly astonishing result, especially as such words as "trumpet" and "chariot" were translated into homely if incorrect terms. "He went into a turnip, and sat down on a carrot," she presently announced. A school teacher was trying to give some backward children correct ideas about nationality. "I am an American," she wrote on the blackboard, requiring her pupils to state the land of their ibrth in the same manner. Jessie's turn was marked by a long pause. "Well?" inquired the teacher at last, "why don't you do your work, Jessie? Write down at once what you are!" "Please, teacher, I can't," confessed the troubled damsel. "I'm a Unitarian, but I don't kno how to spell it." WARN MOTHERS WHO SMOKE. At a meeting, of the National Association of Retail Druggists in Philadelphia recently, Mrs. William Estell Lee of that city said that the cigarette habit is growing among women, and that the fact is very much to be deprecated. The fear is great that with the mothers smoking children may be born with the habit, so to speak. KISSES REJECTED. "Ah, little boy," said the visiting suffragette, with a sigh, "I am shocked to see so many youngsters around here with soiled faces. Don't you know we suffragettes have promised to kiss every little boy who has a clean face?" "That's why we are keeping them dirty, mum!" shouted the tough lad as he bolted down the alley. WOMEN IN THE CLOUDS. Two Boston women went up in airships at the recent Harvard meet of aeroplanists, one of them the newspaper woman, Miss Elizabeth Ladd, who rode with Willard, and the other Miss Catherine Reed, a high-school teacher in Washington, D.C., was taken up by Grahame-White. SHE WAS SATISFIED. Her Friend—I suppose Mr. Meeker makes an ideal husband? The Bride—Yes, indeed. He seemed to realize from the first that he could not have anything his own way. The Manxman is said to be habitually careless and offhand, but it may be assumed from a story found in Miss Agnea Herbert's book, "The Isle of Man," that there are occasions when he only pretends to be cool. Miss Herbert took a Manx fisherman with her to London to see the last passing of her, majesty, Queen Victoria. They had an excellent place, where the majestic pageant moved just below them. In the distance the solemn notes of the "Marche Funebre" broke on the silence, rolling away down the serried ranks of the mourning course. Nearer, nearer yet came the solemn notes, mingling with a weird sound like the hum of the sea. As it rose higher and higher in an indescribable, overwhelming murmur, the united whisper of a multitude, Miss Herbert could scarcely see the gun-carriage, with its great, little burden, so full were her eyes; but the Manxman looked calmly, even unconcernedly, at the impressive scene. "It's magnificent," Miss Herbert whispered, when she could speak. "Isn't it glorious—this tribute of a great nation to a great queen?" "Middlin'," he replied, "middlin." The back of his big brown hand brushed nonchalantly over his eyes; and as Miss Herbert pretended not to look, something told her that the sunburn skin was wet. "Middlin'," he repeated, fiercely, "middlin'."—Youth's Companion. HOW IT LOOKED Maggie—Chimmie must be dead in love wit' some girl. Katie—Wot makes ye t'ink so? Maggie—He has n't been able to buy himself a new pair o' shoe-strings in two months! WOULD HELP THE POOR. Mrs. Francis A. Harris of New York is a milliner in business for herself, who takes the greatest interest in the evicting of poor people, and has asked the municipal court justice to give her the names of ten landlords about to dispossess needy tenants and she will pay half the rent due if the landlords will remit the rest. She says the landlords of today are men who came to this country a few years ago, penniless and ignorant, and no doubt the persons being dispossessed today will in their turn be just as inconsiderate landlords in the future. HELPING WORKING GIRLS. Miss Dorothy Payne Whitney finds time apart from society obligations to take a great deal of interest in young women who earn their own living. Miss Whitney is president of the Junior League, and when the clubhouse question was discussed she took stock and persuaded her friends to take stock to the amount of $250,000. Girls may have room and board from $4 to $5 a week, and besides have the advantage of parlors, laundries, roof garden, tennis court, basket ball and other amusements. A VICTIM'S GROWL. Mrs. Jones—I wonder why they call them intelligence offices! Mr. Jones (embittered by sundry experiences with migratory cooks)—They probably call them intelligence offices because anybody coming from them, hasn't any. Miss, Scribbles—I understand you were 'stuck on my labyrinth book? Mr. Criticus—I guess that's right. I paid a dollar for a copy of it. BANK SYSTEM WILL BE INAUGURATED. BEFORE NEXT SESSION OF CONGRESS. Only 2 Per Cent. Will Be Paid On Deposits and the Banks Acting As Depositories Will Be Required to Pay 2 14 Per Cent. Interest. Washington—Before congress opens the postal savings bank system will have been inaugurated. These first banks will be in the nature of experiments, naturally, for while a study has been made of the English system, conditions are so different that an entirely new system will have to be built up. It was at first intended to start the banks in about twenty-five of the biggest cities of the country, but this plan has been changed. It is now decided to pick out twenty-five or fifty sections of the country where industrial conditions are varied. This will be done for the purpose of testing efficiency of the new banking system, and of determining, the response which may be expected on the part of the different classes of people served. An improvement in the continental system of issuing pass, books to depositors will be inaugurated by this government. Instead of the book, as provided by the private banks, a card will be issued to the depositor showing by perforation the amount of money deposited. This card will be a duplicate of a similar one perforated at the same time and kept in a postoffice, the latter to furnish an absolute record of the funds receipted for. Should a card be lost by the depositor a duplicate may be obtained upon application to the office issuing the original. It will be made perfectly plain these cards are non-transferable and non-negotiable. They cannot be traded in or passed about as legal tender. They must be held by the party making the deposit and presented by that party when it is desired to withdraw any or all of the funds deposited. A machine similar to a cash register in operation will be used to punch the deposit cards. This means that the record will be mechanically accurate, and since both the depositor's card and that held by the government are punched by the same act, no discrepancy can possibly exist. In the course of time it is arranged that the whole system shall be self-sustaining. Only 2 per cent interest will be paid on deposits, and the banks and trust companies, acting as depositories for the funds collected by the government, will be required under the law to pay 2 1-4 per cent interest. The quarter of 1 per cent will represent the only profit the government will make, and this will go entirely towards maintenance and will likewise go as reserves. WIT and HUMOR Biting Words. The argument was fast coming to blows. "Let me tell ye something, Murphy," said Mulligan; "ye're nawthin' but a big cham!"

PISO'S THE BEST MEDICINE for COUGHS & COLDs I KNOW A PIT OF SILLY MEN who THINK THEY'RE MIXED OLD CRANIES, AND SILLY THINK THEY'LL GET RICK QUICK! BY FOLLOWING THE PANEL. Chidilike ignorance. Laura Jean Libbey, discussing in Brooklyn her successful appearance on the stage, said: "I talk in my monologue about love, marriage and the other interests of the heart. On these subjects women, especially young women, are strangely ignorant. "They really make me think, you know, of the little girl who was asked by her teacher: "What can you tell us about Solomon?" "Solomon," replied the little girl, "was very fond of animals." "was very fond of animals," "'And how, my dear, said the teacher, 'do you make that out?' "'Because, answered the little girl, 'the Bible says he had 500 porcus pines.'" COFFEE WAS IT. "All my life I have, been, such slave to coffee that the very aroma of it was enough to set my nerves quivering. I kept gradually losing my health but I used to say 'Nonsense, it don't hurt me.' "Slowly I was forced to admit the truth and the final result was that my whole nervous force was shattered. "My heart became, weak and uncertain in its action and that frightened me. Finally my phryleian told me, about a year ago, that I must stop drinking coffee or, I could never expect to be, well again. "I was in despair, for the very thought of the medicines I had tried so many times nauseated me. I thought of Postum but could hardly bring myself to give up the coffee." "Finally I concluded that I owed it to myself to give Postum a trial. So I got a package and carefully followed the directions, and what a delicious nourishing, rich drink it was. Do you know I found it very easy to shift from coffee to Postum, and not mind the change at all? "Almost immediately after, I made the change I found myself better, and as the days went by, I kept on improving. My nerves grew sound and steady. I slept well and felt strong and well-balanced all the time." Now, I am completely cured, with the old nervousness and slackness all gone. In every way I am well once more. "It pays to give up the drink that I acts on some like a poison for health is the greatest fortune one can have." Read the little book. "The Road to Wellville," in pkgs. "There is a good book."

FROM $102.00 at its organization in 1900 to over $100,000.00 in 1910 is the excellent record made by The Wage Earners Loan and Investment Company. Its growth has been phenomenal, caused mainly by careful investments, able management and loyal support. The colored citizens are proud of this institution that has done and is doing so much to blaze the way for race progress in this community. Nor only has Alabama come in for her share of honor this month by having Booker T. Washington feted by royalty but staid old Boston came right behind this and heaped honor upon honor by having this great educator along with another member of the race from Alabama, Mr. Wm. Pickens, among the chief speakers at the great Congregational meetings that are being held there. Bqth Mr. Washington and Mr. Pickens are the highest type of Negro'manhood and no greater honor could have been shown our race than to have these two gentlemen represent us on the platform on this auspicious occasion. Wiser and more appropriate selections could not have been made. On Wednesday evening Oct. 26th, there are going to be two special attractions here. The one will be the introductory appearance of the Savannah Choral club at the St. John's Baptist Church, the other, the annual performance of Robinson Bros. circus under the auspices of the Elks, white. The former is for the special benefit of the musical and artistic uplift of the Negroes of this city, while the latter is to enrich the coffers of the local order of Elks, white. To some, there is going to be a question as to which of these attractions has first call, to others there will be no doubt attached. The circus itself is this year, as in the past, probably a very creditable affair and well worth witnessing, but the attendant circumstances of its appearance on this occasion should make some material difference with the Negro portion of our population. And in order that THE TRIBUNE may be of a little assistance to those who are undecided on this question, we feel it incumbent upon us to remind you of the fact, that as the receipts, part at least, from the performances of this circus are to go to the benefit of this local order of Elks, white, one of the secret organizations which has in recent years been trying to deny the Negro the right to use their name and insignia, will be altogether inappropriate for any one of us to contribute a single penny to the revenues accruing from the performances of the circus while here on this mission. And furthermore, we believe that when the Negroes take into consideration the fact that in the future by an adverse decision of the supreme court they may lose the privilege of continuing their present orders of Elks and Knights, not a single self respecting one of us will set foot in the circus tent, and it goes without saying that our presence there will not be desired, but most welcomed at the performance of the Choral Club. Professor Du Bois of Atlanta University reminds us that the United States troops who did such heroic service in fighting the forest fires in the Northwest belong to a colored regiment—the Twenty-fifth Infantry, indeed, one of the companies of which was charged with shooting up Brownsville. We all know that the American Negro is capable of heroic service, but it is well to be reminded of particular instances.—The Congregationalist and Christian World. The following are open expressions of appreciation shown us for the humble efforts we have been putting forward to make THE TRIBUNE indispensable in the homes where it is already known: Marietta, Ga., Oct. 1910. Mr. Sol. C. Johnson: Editor of THE SAVANNAH TRIBUNE Dear Sir: It is just a source of pleasure for me, and I think I voice the sentiments of all the good thinking people, when I say that, I regard THE TRIBUNE as a Negro paper. His neway columns and the method upon which it is based makes it unsurpassed by any. other. I notice too, that for the past month the, Sunday school lesson has appeared in each issue which adds much to the greatness and success of the paper, and I am sure that our honorable editor and all who are connected with it, will use no small effort in making the dear TRIBUNE what it ought to be. Sincerely yours, Mrs. Elsie Coleman. Bainbridge Ga., Oct. 11, 1910. Hon. Sol. C. Johnson. Dear Editor: I must congratulate you for the brave and fearless manner in which THE TRIBUNE has been published and the stand it has taken in the defense of our race. I have been reading THE TRIBUNE for twenty two years and it has always stood for right and justice between the races regardless of whom it offended, religiously, racial or politically. I trust this quarter of a century improvement will enhance the value of your important sheet in our homes. It is the dearest of all the news that enters my home and when I call to mind that great man of courage, who stood at the head of the staff so long in the person of our late friend and brother, Col. J. H. Deveaux, I say to THE TRIBUNE you have my best wishes. Fraternally yours. New Haven, Coun., Oct. 14, 1910 Mr. Sol, C. Jahuson Dear Editor: Your letter of the 28th inst., was received and its contents carefully noted. I have been a subscriber to THE SAVANNAN TRIBUNE for eleven years. I would not be without. I wish to say further. THE TRIBUNE is both interesting and helpful to me. It is up to the standard. I also wish to congratulate you on your twenty five years of publication. I pledge you my co-operation by my continued subscription. Long live THE TRIBUNE. Congressman E. T. Austin THE TRIBUNE hopes and expects the re-election of the Hon. Richard W. Austin of the Second District of Tennessee. He is a true blue republican, an able and industrious representative, and deserves on overwhelming re-endorsement at the polls in the old Knoxville district in November. The colored people of the Southern states, indeed the nation for it is now a national question, ought to rally heartily to his support, for he has made and is making a strong fight to have Congress reimburse them for the money lost in the old Freedman's Bank.. Were we one of his immediate constituents, we would whoop it up for him day and night until the polls close on the 8th of November. A. C. E. League. Sunday Oct. 16, was Union League day at Bethel A M Church from 5 p m until 6:40 p u. The topic was well discussed, subject of topic. "Your amusements; do they build up or tear down?" Romans XVI-1. Those speaking on the topic were Mr. R L Robinson, F B Bryan, Rev. Philips, Mrs. R H Singleton, Rev. B S Hannah, Mr. Jesse Brinson, M L A Newton, Pro. Anderson and others. Those taking part on program were Miss Bell Ford, paper; selection. Mr. H Hynnes; solo, Mrs. R H Singleton. This solo was in deed a gem. Recitation, Mrs. Mason; Address, Mr. L C Irwin; paper, Mrs Lizzie Williams; subject, "The educated Negro." Mr. Reed made a good talk at the close of the meeting. Next meeting at St. James A M E Church, third Sunday in November. Everybody invited. Monumental Notes. The rally is over and we're out of debt. From Closes $103.00, Public 40.19, Trustees Board 30.00, Stewardess 11.00, Stewardess A 16.15, Stewardess B 2.71, Auxiliary 27.00, Missionary 5.00, Ushers 5.00, Sunday school 12.00, Chor 35.00, Juvenile choir 2.50, Insurance club 7.09, Parsonage Aid 13.30, Pulpit Aid 5.00, total 359.65. Dr B S Hannah P E, preached two able sermons Sunday, that day being set aside as his day owing to the fact that he closed his fourth and last quarter for the year 1910 at Monumental. Monday night the great sweeping we pulled off, after all the boards had finished their reports. Then the literary prose am was listened to. Dr. Townsley is sout of the proudest man living just about now, he is having all of the various colors platted together, to be tied around the broom, together with the ashes of the great mortgage burning in the little red sacks. He expects to take it to conference and show what he has done to get the church out of debt 464 members have joined during his pastorate. Dr. Townsley visited Thompson, Ga, this week on business. Miss V O Sherman rendered an excellent instrumental solo Monday night at the broom rally, F. B. B. Church. Rev Wright preached an able sermon Sunday morning and a large crowd was out. His subject was "A Separation" and he most beautifully and vividly brought the subject before his hearers. He showed most plainly how the good and the bad are devised, the one to inherit everlasting life, the other to suffer by the mistake of failing to adjust themselves with God. At night the services were packed to over flowing. The principle feature of these services was a talk which Rev Wright delivered to Zera Lodge No 165 I O O G S and D of S of the East side. Appropriate exercises were held in behalf of the Order, among which was a beautiful and comprehensive sketch of the Society's work. On Monday night Rev Wright and members were invited to Central Baptist Church to the seventeenth anniversary. Very impressing were these exercises and Rev Irby and his congregation deserves much-praise for the manner in which they are carrying on their good work. Big times on tomorrow. Let every body be present. Visitors always welcomed. Beth-Eden Bant. Cl Beth-Eden-Bapt. Church The congregations were unusually large at both hours last Sunday and seemed to enjoy the services much. The B.Y.P U was led by Mr.C Lindsay who gave very much valuable information upon the "prayer meeting toopie." Tomorrow morning, the pastor will preach; at night a session, subject: "The Clock of is Time pointing to the Hour of Doom" will be delivered by Rev John H May D D., formerly pastor of the Second Baptist Church of this city. All of Dr May's friends are asked to be present and hear him. Rally on 5th, Sunday." The clubs are urged to be ready with a round report. The members are called to meet Thursday night Oct 27th, to arrange for the fall bazzar. Revival at F. A. B. Church A great revival has been in progress at First African Baptist Church since last Wednesday night and will continue for a run all told of ten nights. This is one of the greatest meetings of the kind this church has ever attempted and we are noted for our wide awake, enthusiastic spirit on such occasions. This year we have with us as an impetus to the great work of the meeting Rev Dr C. H. Phillips D. D., of Richmond, Va., a great National Evangelist who has been accepted by the National Baptist Convention. Rev Phillips is a born speaker, an eloquent orator and a natural spiritual genius. This is Rev Philibs first appearance in Savannah but we have long heard of his fame as a worker for Christ and a leader of men. It will be an exceptional treat to hear this distinguished preacher in the course of his many talks during the revival. Among the many subjects which he will speak on are the following: Powers of the Holy Ghost; The Great Gospel Invitation; Three Steps out of darkness into Light; Faith; Man on Trial; Hurry up and come to Christ; Which way. Rev W L Jones, pastor urges the attendance of members and friends to hear this able speaker and guarantees that it will be the best meeting of its kind ever held in Savannah. Come out all. Second Baptist Church. Last Sunday was a lovely day, the air cool and embracing, the sky cloudless without a single obstruction, to prevent old Sol from sending his beautiful rays to the earth. The Rev H Maxwell delivered an interesting discourse from Hebrew 10th Chapter 38 verse. According to the appointment the Reid and Batchelar supporters began to assemble at three o'clock fully decided on supporting, the man of their choice. Secretary Roberts stated that it was necessary to elect a moderator for the evening, therefore Mr. W R Fields was selected for the place. He briefly stated the object of the meeting and the church then proceeded to call, Dr D A Reid of Philadelphia, Pa, and W B Watchelar of Ocala, Fla were nominated. Dr Reid received the highest number of votes, and the moderator declared Dr Reid the duly elected pastor of the church. After the vote had been taken, the moderator showed the importance of making the call of Dr Reid unanimous and urged the Batchelar supporters to that end. A motion was offered and sustained, naming the moderator, secretary Roberts, and W S Roundfield as the committee to inform Dr Reid of the call. The meeting then adjourned and the members well pleased went to their various homes. At eight o'clock p m the church reassembled to listen to her young son Rev J H Rogers He preached an able sermon, which completed a good days work for the church that will be long cherished in the memory of its members.

According to one of the By-laws of this society, the members of the "Catholic Mutual Aid Society will receive Holy Communion in a body on the fourth Sunday of October at the First Mass. In the evening they will have their monthly meeting in the school rooms: important business will be transacted and all the members are requested to be present. Here is gladsome news for the people who live at Brownsville and in the surrounding districts. Very Rev. Ignatius Lissner has just bought seven nice lots of land on 60th Street between Bullock and Harden Streets. On this beautiful piece of property he will erect a bie school building in brick; it will be ready for the next school year. All our schools are in splendid trim at present, and if looks as if the present school term will be the best one ever had. The Chatham Hall Night School, under the able management of Mr. Robert Gibson, also is doing good. Butler Presbyterian Church During last week there occurred at Butler Presbyterian Church, the Presbytery of Knox. In attendance thereto were many men of distinction and it was really a red letter day in the life of this church. Many and pleasing were the addresses delivered during the course of the meeting and much good was derived from those assembled. The Presbyterians are a coming people in Savannah and stand today upon the threshold of an epoch making a period of their history. They seem to be imbued with the right kind of spirit and are ever on the move, trying to do something good. To a people less enterprising, energetic and spiritual such a stupendous piece of work as they have accomplished within the last one or two years, could not have been achieved. To turn that ugly, unseemly, looking mass of brick and mortar which stood as a sort of landmark in Savannah, into an edge of beauty and value is a piece of work which Rev Redd and his followers may well feel proud of. They have done well, they have built on a strong foundation and are bound to rise. It has often been said, of this denomination that the ministers are the big guns of the protest: faith Of course, we're all not goog to agree¹ this because we don't all happen to belong to this faith but there is one thing we can say without contradiction and that is, that the Presbyterians have done well in Savannah and are deserving of our healthy congratulations. But let us not stop here for no denomination can succeed by itself. They are all dependent upon another. So suppose we all Baptist, Methodist, Congregationalist, and Episcopalians pay our Presbyterian friends a visit and see for yourselves what a great and good work they are doing. Savannah Choral Club. Wednesday evening Oct. 26th, the Savannah Choral Club presents, Mr. Joseph Douglass to the people of Sa- vannah at the St. John Baptist Church on Hartledge street. Mr. Douglass has a national reputation as a violinist, and and his playing will make glad the soul of almost any one. If it is necessary to cite any additional reason to those, who appreciate the highest in musical art, Mr. Douglass is a grandson of Frederick Douglass, that great representative of his people. One of our papers sometime ago made mention of the fact that Savannah not boast a Choral Club. Savannah now boasts a Choral Club. The membership is not large now, but the plans of the club are laid for a membership of 75. The club is working hard to make the presentation of Mr. Douglass a success, and the public is asked to help. The fact that a circus perform the same night ought not be a reason for expecting only a small audience. The circus is to perform for the benefit of charity to be dispensed by the white Elks. The Savannah Choral Club is to have its entertainment, for the start of a charity fund to be disposed by itself. The Choral Club will appreciate any encouragement, the papers see fit to give. The club is willing to make an effort along musical line, past failures and presents discouragements to the contrary notwithstanding. Tickets are now on sale. They may be purchased from Messrs. McDowell, P E Perry, Julius Jenkins, Marion Johnson and Dr J Walter Williams. The Savannah Choral Club believes there are enough music loving people in Savannah to fill Rev Gray's Church, and all such persons are invited to be present. Homestead Park Mr. W. S. Kain, local manager of the F. C. Becker Realty Company is back in Savannah again for the winter, and announces on another page of this paper, the re-opening of the sale of Homestead Park lots. Over two hundred of the representative colored people of Savannah, purchased this property last winter, and can vouch for the fair treatment which they received from the company. Many of these buyers have already paid in full for their lots, and in every case have received their warranty deeds promptly. In every case where sickness or lack of work, he hindered a purchaser from meeting the payments promptly, the company has granted a reasonable extension of time. Over one half of this property was sold last year, and the remainder will now be offered for sale on the easy terms. During the opening sale which is now going on prices will be the same as last year. But within a short time a considerable advance will be made. Those who purchase now will get the benefit of this advance in price. "Dont Let the Girlies Get You." That's the theme that runs through the song of that name "now being sung with immense success in-the-great musical force," "Alma, Where do You live?" The words of the song are by George V Hohart, the well known author, while Jean Brilquett is given credit for the music. This is the song and the play that is drawing the crowds to Weber's Theatre New York City. And it is this song—the words and music complete—that will go free as a special feature with each copy of next Sunday's New York World. A great newspaper and a great song for a few cents.

Desverney, L. G. Middleton and Dr. F. S. Belcher, in correspondence with the millionaire philanthropist, Mr. Andrew Carnegie, who has agreed to give the colored citizens of Savannah a $12000 Library building. The present city government, as an indication of its interest has agreed to give $1200 a year—$100 a month for its support. Now the only condition attached, is that a suitable site be furnished. The curators propose to raise $6000 to buy a site that will be an honor and credit to the colored citizens of today and the future. It is expected that every colored citizen in Savannah will gladly and willingly give something to this cause. A small amount from each one will easily raise this sum. Some one will call on you. Be prepared to give towards this fund. This must be, all means be raised, this lot must be purchased. Fox Smoker. One of the crowning events of the year in the club circle was the fourth annual smoker given by the Fox Club last Monday night at the Harris street hall. It was a rousing and screaming success and every one present pronounced it 'the greatest thing in the history of Savannah, Mr. T. A. Milledge the president acted as toast master and with his accustomed wit and humor made the affair one never to be forgotten. Among the speakers of the evening were' Capt. J. C. Simmons, 'H. W. Mann, J. Clayton Williams, Ed. H. Burke, C. M. Brinson, P. Y. Giles and others, The Apollo Orchestra rendered several beautiful selections and the two quartettes from the young Fox and Eurekas' respectively, added greatly to the pleasure of the evening. Deaths On Oct. 16th Mrs. Eliza Farrior departed this life at Hazelhurst, Ga. Mrs. Farrior was born and reared in Appling county, near Baxley. She was a school teacher for years and much beloved by all the little ones who came under her care. At the age of thirty-two she was married and later was blest with the birth of an only daughter. She was a consistent worker for Christ and an example for good to those who came in contact with her. After a stay in North Georgia where she was taken for her health, Mrs. Marie Stoval, after an illness of ten months succumbed to death on the 18th of this month. She was a member of Second Baptist church of this city and was one of its faithful attendants. Her body was taken from here by her devoted husband to Elberton for burial. On last Thursday night at 12:10 o'clock, Mrs. Tena Gilliard of 529 Oak street passed away. Mrs. Gilliard was for thirty odd years a member of First Bryan Baptist church and one of its most faithful attendants. The funeral took place Monday afternoon and the services were conducted by Rev. Daniel Wright. The deceased leaves a devoted husband, a son and a daughter to mourn her death. After a hurried trip from Detroit, Mich., where he is engaged in business, Mr. Augustus Gilliard arrived here Tuesday morning last too late for his mother's funeral. The many friends of the family extend their heartfelt sympathy. Death claimed Col. W. H. Woodhouse about mid-night Wednesday last at Charity Hospital. The colonel has been ailing for quite awhile but got around fairly well for one of his years. He was among the last of that class of old citizens that have been so prominent in affairs in this community. Col. Woodhouse did much for the organization of the colored military of the city and was appointed by Gov. Colquitt, as the first Lieutenant-Colonel of the First Battalion of colored troops. He served in this position gallantly for about three years when he was succeeded by the lamented Col. Deveaux. Col. Woodhouse was a dashing officer. He was a member of the Mutual Benevolent Society and at one time a member of Hilton Lodge of Masons. His funeral took place from St. Stephen's Church of which he was an old communieant, yesterday afternoon. Col. Woodhouse leaves two daughters, Mrs. Mamie W. Long, Mrs. A. C.

The Importance of Having Your Clothes Tailored To Order. Most men who are doing things in this country today are tailor dressed men. They are not ashamed to be seen anywhere—to stand up for the most critical examination. They know that ready-made clothes can only properly fit one man out of a hundred and they don't want to be one of the ninety-nine others. Stop to think: has another man's suit ever fitted you, no matter what's his size? Didn't the collar stand off at the neck? Weren't the sleeves too long or too short, the back too tight, or didn't the trousers look wrong? How can you expect, then, to be satisfied with such a suit even if new. On the other hand, the merchant tailor not only fits every measure, but you have the opportunity of preserving your individuality and suiting your personality in every particular. Do yourself justice. Have your suit tailored to order. Use good material. You will appreciate it as long as you have it. Drop in and see our $18,00 & $20,00 SUIT.

"Charity stamps," first used in Boston in 1862 for the soldiers' relief funds during the Civil war, were the original forerunners of the Red Cross Christmas seal, which will be used this year to bring happiness and cheer to millions. The Delaware Anti-Tuberculosis society in 1907 for the first time in America made use of a stamp for the purpose of getting revenue to right consumption. In a hastily organized campaign of only three weeks they realized $3,000. The next year, 1903, the American Red Cross conducted the first national tuberculosis stamp campaign. From this sale $135. - 000 was realized for the anti-tuberculosis movement. In 1909, under many adverse conditions, $250,000 was realized from these stamps. This year the slogan of the tuberculosis fighters and the Red Cross is "A Million for Tuberculosis From Red Cross Seals in 1910." Tlt for Tat. Lloyd C. Griscom, in an interview in New York, said of party dissensions. "They are animated by a nasty spirit, a tit-for-tat spirit; and they go from bad to worse. "It's like the case of the engaged couple at the seaside dance. The young man, a little jealous, said coldly to his flancee at supper. "Let me see—was it you I kissed in the conservatory?

OF INTEREST TO OUR WOMEN SUMMARY OF THE NEW FALL FASHION FEATURES. "For the fall and winter wardrobe Lady Fashion has put her seal of approval upon the short coat and the scant (plain skirt," says Grace Margaret Gould in Woman's Home Companion. "She also favors the one-piece coat dress for autumn wear, and whatever the color of the fabric, she recommends a touch of black in the way of satin cordings or braid. "She likes the deep sailor collar and she suggests trimming it with either fur or mohre bands. "She says: 'Let the high waistline be the vogue and use shirrings wherever you care to as a trimming.' "She has nodded her head in favor of the collarless neck, but she kindly says: 'Don't wear it if it is unhecoming.' "Sleeves are long or short, according to the type of gown, but always they are small. "The peasant waist with the sleeve cut in one with the bodice continues to be fashionable. "Flat, deep lingerie collars, decidedly quaint looking, will be worn with many of the smartest autumn dresses. "The most modish evening wraps are of black chiffon over a brilliant color. Royal blue and black in combination are much liked. All the wraps are cut on slender lines. "Though velvets, brocades and matlasses are in favor for evening costumes, yet the transparent fabrics are just as much in style. The velled effect knows no shading. "The matching blouse of clifton or marquette continues to be the proper waist to wear with the coat-and-skirt suit." CORRECT FALL NECKWEAR. "The woman who finds that she simply cannot wear one of the fashionable Dutch collars or Toby frills will be glad to know that a great deal of high neckwear-will be worn this fall and winter—such as high stiff stocks with long jabots," says Edith Weidenfield in Woman's Home Companion for September. "There will also be a return of the old-time 'dickie'—a stiff chemisette of linen. It will be made with or without an attached collar to wear with V-neck, tallored blouses. And the woman to whom the low-cut walsts are becoming can still wear these comfortable blouises and be quite as modish as she was last spring and ummer. TABLE LINEN NOTES. A pretty pattern for table linen shows a small ear of corn with the husks open. Pretty new luncheon and tea cloths are made of a rather coarse linen, plain, and the edge finished with a large scallop, this embroidered in a plain color. Gay tablecloths and napkins for summer homes have colored borders. One of these shows clusters of pink roses tied with a green double bowknot. MENDING CURTAINS. To mend holes in net or lace curtains, cut a piece of material as near like the curtain foundation as possible, making At about an inch wider all round than the hole; then dip in strong starch and lay over the hole, ironing it in place and trimming off loose threads and ragged edges. This patch will last until the curtains are washed, and will be almost invisible. Every mother should remember that the making of her daughter is of far greater importance than the administration of things in her house, and every daughter, should realize that she can learn to avoid mistakes only when she sees them. She enjoys most seeing her mother's mistakes and resolving that when she has a house she will "never do so." A beginning may be made with a small and comparatively unimportant responsibility, and it is to be remembered that responsibility and not mere work is the great thing, says Woman's Life. The very little girl may have the care of one plant, a hardy one to begin with, but system and neatness may be practiced in its care to great advantage. If the plant should be a blooming one, a small vase for the breakfast table would give an additional bit of care, and pleasure to both child and parents. Cottons now come printed in all sorts of Persian and old world design. Paris declares that transparent sleeves are to be a ruling feature. New guimpes are of the simplest order, sheer, untrimmed, unobtrusive, and shallow. Never were separate wraps and touring coats so smart as this season. The smaller the hat the larger the algrette or plumage seems to be the rule. ```markdown ``` Home's not merely four square walls, Filled with shrines the heart hath bulldid. Home—go, watch the faithful dove, Sailing 'neath the heaven above us; Home is where there's one to love, Home is where there's one to love us. Home's not merely roof and room, Needs it something to endear it; Home is where the heart can bloom; Where there's some kind lip to cheer it. What is home with none to meet? None to welcome—none to greet ua! Home is sweet and only sweet— Where there's one we love to meet e there's one we love to meet us. WHAT EVERY WIFE NEEDS. She need a good temper, a cheerful disposition, and a knowledge of how her husband should be treated. She needs a capability of looking on the bright side of life, and refusing to be worried by small things. She needs a secure grasp of such subjects as are of interest to men, and should not be above studying evening politics in order to understand should her husband speak of them. She needs a sympathetic nature in order that, should sorrow fall upon them, she may be able to give comfort to her husband, says Woman's Life. She needs considerable tact and patience—the one to enable her to know when to remain silent, and vice versa, and the other to put up with him when his temper is ruffled. LAVENDER-GARDEN. Now that the return in point of architecture to the farmhouse of early date seems an established fact, it is well to consider the cultivation of the old-time "perfume garden." Rose gardens we have had for years, and learned to love. A few women have even gone so far as to have an "old-fashion garden" in a corner of their up-to-date estates and beautiful such a garden always is. The lavender garden is not yet in evidence, yet there is no flower more closely connected with stories told as of the old-fashioned days than this. No plant has a sweeter, cleaner perfume and no linen closet is complete without it. HEALTH AND BEAUTY HINTS FOR WOMEN. The work consists merely in rubbing in a circle with the finger tips over the cheeks, temples and forehead sufficient to stimulate circulation. This serves to keep the tissues in healthy condition. A scald is one of the most painful injuries. One of the best healing remedies is made by beating castor oil and white of egg together until a cream is formed. SHIRTWAIST IRONING PLAN. It is difficult to iron between the buttons on a shirtwaist without breaking them loose or leaving a puckered edge. A good plan is to have a very thicky narrow pad of flannel or canton flannel to slip under the right side for the buttons, to sink into while you iron the wrong side then run the iron once along the outside edge on the right side. HOUSEHOLD AFFAIRS HOUSEHOLD AFFAIRS To make a good floor filler put one pint of broken glue in an old tin bucket and cover with one gallon of boiling water. Put the bucket into a second vessel of water and the glue will dissolve without burning. When it bolls add enough sifted saw dust to make a good putty. Fill the floor cracks with this, smooth with steel or wood scraper or thin-bladed case knife. It is claimed a splendid ironing board cover is made by tacking burlap to the board, and then covering it with a double, thickness of old white flannel. This makes a firm, smooth covering which never wrinkles like the blanket covering. When laundering starched articles in winter, always add borax to the starch and the cuffs will not lose shape. Buy a coarse blanket if you do not have one and keep it to place on the floor where the baby is playing there. Put the toys on it and if it is necessary to quickly clean the room of toys, pick up the blanket. If one has a piece of rooing slate and will heat it in the oven, it can be placed under the bread pan and the winter bread will rise more quickly. Cover well to keep in the heat. The cushioned back of a Morris chair has been found valuable in the sick room to place back of the invalid in bed. ```markdown ``` Negro Organizations. Negro Organizations. Negro organizations and Negro enterprises are in order and must be the password and the blood sprinkled over every Negro door-post in America. The-white man is not jealous of Negro enterprises, as reported by many of the race. It is he himself who makes the distinction and creates jealousy and narrowness against his fellow man. The respectable white man everywhere he is found is in accord with the industrious Negro who is trying to do something that he can call his own. Nothing would suit the white man better than to see the Negroes, doing business among themselves. Many a white man does business with them, not for the money he gets from them, but simply for humanity's sake. We see so many instances where the Negro keeps running wildly onward and forcing himself where he is not wanted, and many of them because they are made to wait, murmur and complain at their lot. We note with pride the organization of an automobile company, by some of the leading business men of Washington, D. C. There should be no question as to the success of the concern. Our people are fond of excursions, picnics and sight-seeing. They cannot ride in automobiles of other companies, therefore let the colored men and women of the District and throughout the entire country whenever convenient give their patronage to this worthy project. By proper support, in course of time, they can operate similar companies in other cities and states. The Negroes in this state and country in a great majority have a plenty of money lying idle in large banks that don't need it, and the officials show them plainly they had rather not bother with them; and why they don't take it out and establish such places, as will give their own people first-class accommodations, is a wonder to us. It can be done and it is the duty of the ministers of the gospel to lead out in this direction to educate their hearers as to the great necessity of patronizing race enterprises. No people are more easily led than the Negro and while a great deal of condemnation is being heaped upon the ignorant Negro, many leaders of the race should come in for their share of it themselves. It has been a miracle to us as to how the masses of the Negroes have been loyal and today are still so, the great need of the Negro today is men who will make sacrifices to redeem the race and the way to begin is to organize business enterprises and patronize each other regardless of foes or conditions.—Richmond-Reformer. WHY GO TO CHURCH2 In many parts of the west the rural telephone has grown from a fence-post affair to a thing of daily convenience. And now in Kansas it is entering, a field that is unusual and yet useful, for it is becoming the disseminator of the Sunday sermon. No more the farmer's wife who lives three miles from a church, need to worry as to whether the weather will be too bad for the long drive; no longer need the hitching up of the horses for that trip to the church be a matter of absolute necessity, for the telephone has stepped in and brought the church to the home. It is in Olathe, Kan, that the experiment of the telephone sermon is being tried, and so far it has been a success that it is growing. There illness and bad weather cannot cannot interfere with the Sunday worship, for the sermons, and every other church service, for that matter, are transmitted directly to the home, and all one needs to do to hear is to place a telephone transmitter to the ear. On Sunday morning, rise at six; use plenty of cold water on the face; eat a plain, hearty breakfast. Then mix up and take internally a dose composed of equal parts of the following ingredients, namely: Determination, Self-respect. —Stir well and add a little love just to make it sweet. Repeat the dose every three minutes until Sunday school time, unless relief comes sooner. If the day is stormy an external application of overshoes, rubber coats, and umbrellas will be beneficial.

On June 25, whea the ship was-lying off Port de Paix, on the northeast coast of Hay- 4i, a black cloud swept out from the shore and clung like a big black ball to one of the port davite. Tnvestiga- tion showed that it was a huge regi- ament of “stingers.” The swarm was watched closely all through the day and night until the vessel was an- chored off St. Marc, Hayti. There the ball. lifted and separated and thousands of the little insects, after hovering about the ship for a time, sailed off on a bee-line for the shore. Bir ga ose explanation,” said. ‘the, captar fit his report to friends. “Those bees found that there were few flowers in the vicinity of Port de Paix and so they deliberately planned the trip to St. Marc, where plant life is wonderfully rich,in hon- ey. They must have known that the Alleghany was bound that way and decided to get free passage.” BEE KEEPER’S “FOXY” IDEA Quadruples the Production of Honey, ‘Though Somewhat. at the Expense of Quality. . The beeman gave a crafty laugh. “Bees are certainly easy,” he said. “Is their creed, you know, that they must work as long as it is light; so if you surround an apiary with powerful arc lamps the bees will Ia- bér 15, 18, 20 hours a day—vill le- hor, in fact, just as long as you keep the light going. “Thats an old story, the bee's overtime; but last éeason produced a new idea, namely, that of placing pans of sugar and water about the hives. Thanks to this idea, the bees don’t have to waste their time look- ing for flowers ; they just crawl from hive-to pan and back again; and their output of honey is quadrupled. “Of course, honey made from su- rad and water isn’t as delicate and fragrant as honey made from clover and ¥oces and lilacs; but this is an age of competition, and I’m not in the bee business to make good honey, but to make—ha, ha—good money.” RULES FOR READING. Girls who are fond of outdoor reading may indulge in that delight- ful pastime without detriment to their eyes if they will take @ few simple precautions. ‘Never allow the sun to shine on the page you are reading, for the glare is injurious; and it is wiser, when possible, to soften the light on the book by the shade of a parasol or a tree. However great the temptation to finish, a fascinating story, do not read in the twilight, for this brings too great a strain on the eyes. When reading on the piazza do not face the light, but tum your chair about so that the light comes Sver your shoulder. . NEW KEY TO ALPHABET.

NO. 43-1918, Brahmina, Buddhists, Mohammedans and Parsees largely make up the inhabitants of India, and Masonry there is prosperous. It surely speaks well for the institution when men of such wide religious opinions can assemble around the alter of Masonry in peace and harmony and brotherhood.—Exchange. The genius of Masonry spans the continent with its arms of light and beneficence. It seeks to exalt man and society and to bring on a brotherhood of humanity. It is spring in the van of winter working quietly as the forces of nature; and when criticised replying not again, but going steadily forward with its humane and ennobling work in the service of God and man—Rev. Edwin Wheelock, Vermont. Masonry at all times and in all countries and among all peoples of the earth has appropriated to itself this great mission: the unification of mankind by the exclusion of everything special, local, or selfish on the one hand, and the inclusion of those virtues and purposes, necessities, and aspirations which were common to human nature on the other. All our emblems, symbols, and ceremonies were conceived in this mold, and stand the test of this broad criterion. There is not one thing in the philosophy, plan and object of Masonry which can not be said of or to every human being—the subject of its study is mankind, the domain of its inspiration universality, the infinite.—Charles F. Buck, Grand Orator, Louisiana. LOW TWELVE. My brothers, we must each pass on. The institution of Masonry which we honor and love will still continue to meet as I believe and hope in this land its full development. To gather here the power to play its part in the ultimate purpose of the universe. For each one of us low twelve will sound, and the acacia will mark the spot where that which is corruptible will mingle with the. elements from which it was formed to serve again its physical purpose in Nature's crucible. But rooted strong in mother earth it will also tell of that part of us which will still live, its spiritual purpose accomplished, reembraced in the all pervading spirit of never ending life. To each of us is given the power to leave a footmark physical, visible; and a spiritual imprint on the path invisible, the straight line to happiness and peace. Each tear we wipe away—each word of encouragement and hope we speak, each effort of our hands to raise the tallen, each flower we plant in Nature's garden of friendship, each step we take in service to our fellows, is a stone with our marks upon it, in the great symbolic temple in which some day all mankind shall worship our one and any Father. When the tumult and turmoil of the passing day is ended and the fading glories of the west are gradually losing their primatic beauty in the coming night—how sweet to see for a moment evn, through the lowering curtain, the bright flash of the east—the rising sun. How sweet to feel, for a moment even in the glowing coldness, the beauty of the south, the warmth of the sun at its meridian height—as we stretch forth our arms, naked, helpless as we came to receive the wages of a well-spent life. My brothers a truly Masonic life—is a life well spent. God grant it to all of us, and give us to see that it means work not word—practice not profession, service not symbol. And may the Masonry of your great state become and remain for centuries to follow your first an enduring bulwark of the common weal. An active influence in your community for all that tends to harmony among mankind. Proved by plumb, square and level, may it ever be strong in right and justice against the encroachment of arbitrary night, against every effort to exalt the power of gold, above the sublime gift of God, liberty of soul and body—Selected. PROBLEMS OF NEGRO EDUCATION The general problem of Negro education is to assist in making the Negro master of his peculiar environment. The primary problem of every teacher is likewise how, with the opportunity and the means at his disposal, to best do what he can, directly, to assist in making the Negro master of his peculiar environment; that is, to improve conditions. Out of this primary problem grow all the problems of school management, classroom government, recitations, and community improvement. The demand is more and more being made that the teacher concentrate his efforts upon this primary problem of improving the conditions under which the people live. This is finding expression in two ways. One is in the increasing demand for industrial education, and for more practical literary work in the classroom, work which can be made to articulate with everyday life. The second way in which this demand upon the teacher for improving conditions is finding expression is in the insistence that the teacher, in addition to classroom work, shall assist in the general improvement of the community. The work of the teacher in the classroom and the work of the teacher directly with the people of the community are regarded as, of equal importance. If the primary fundamental problem of the teacher is outside of the school, in the community, then the work in the classroom is also primar- ily but a means towards an end, which 'end is, assisting, in improving community conditions. All the secondary or minor problems relating to school work minimize themselves and often disappear, when the teacher, with the proper perspective, places the emphasis upon the end of education rather than the means, and keeps ever before him that what he is trying to do is to help improve the condition of his people.—Prof. Monroe N. Work in the Southern Workman. AN INSTITUTION FOR RACE UPLIFTMENT. Durham, N. C., October 15. 1910. The realization of Dr. James E. Shepard's plans were evidenced last Tuesday night in one of the most auspicious meetings ever held in this city in the interest of education for the Negro. The enthusiasm of the large and cultured audience that filled the auditorium of St. Joseph's A. M. E. church, being imbued with the spirit of the occasion, registered the fact that the institution of which Doctor Shepard is founder and president, is a potent factor in the development of the Negro. The presence of Judge Jeter C. Pritchard, president of the advisory board of the school; Mrs. Emma Erskine Hahn, president of the Woman's Town and Country club of New York; Rev. Jasper C. Massee of Chattanooga, Tenn., one of the leading divines of the south; Mr. Brodie L. Duke, the "tobacco king;" Rev. Dr. Shannon of Newark, N. J.; Rev. Dr. Leggett of Ohio; Dr. Jas. B. Dudley, president of the State A. and M. college for Negroes, Greensboro, N. C., and other noted personages created an atmosphere that gave encouragement to all present. President James E. Shepard in introducing Judge Pritchard, said: There must be safety valves for a progressive civilization, and these valves are institutions of the kind for which this meeting is being held." With his personality and mellifluous voice he created reserved enthusiasm especially when he exclaimed: "The man who is a friend of the Negro who is trying to rise, Judge Jeter C. Pritchard, who will preside over this meeting." When Judge Pritchard began to speak he was given an ovation. After speaking of the stupendous undertaking of Doctor Shepard and the splendid school he has given his race he said: "The stability of any government upon the fact of the earth depens upon the moral and intellectual development of its people." Speaking of the exigencies requiring movements of importance similar to the National Religious Training School for Negroes, in Durham, he in pard said: "This is one of the most important institutions ever organized for the uplift of the Negro." As an evidence of what he can accomplish in North Carolina, the progressive Negroes in Durham he held as a concrete example and said: "The Negro who will accept the opportunity to become a desirable citizen will find North Carolina the state with virgin opportunities for them. "The colored man who respects himself is esteemed by the white people of the state." Dr. J. C. Masse was then introduced by Judge Pritchard. Under the caption: "The By-Products of Christianity," he delivered an address that was significant because of the many frank statements made by him. "Politics is a dirty game," was among the many strong utterances made by this gifted speaker. Referring to the recent upheaval in the political realm of his state he exclaimed: "The corrupt politicians of Tennessee have been burled out of sight by 50,000 clean voters." He said that he was going to vote for the Republican nominee for governor, who is a Baptist minister. His abhorence for Andrew Carnegie was expressed in the following words: "No man in this generation has done greater harm to Christian education than Andrew Carnegie. Religious institutions have changed their charters in order to meet the whims of this man. "I believe that this institution is one of the moral by-products of Jesus Christ, and Doctor Shepard need make no apology for making the school a religious institution." Mrs. E. E. Hahn, who is a grandmother of Lord Erskine of England, famed as one of the greatest men in English history, was introduced to her Negro audience. The music by the gifted singers had evidently inspired her as she made an exceptional comment about the singers. She possesses a rich vocabulary and has the ability to hold her audience. She eulogized Doctor Shepard and said that he and Doctor Washington are examples of the class of leaders that the Negro most needed. Brodie L. Duke, who had given the school $3,000, made a short talk and inspired his audience. Wednesday morning in the chapel of the school the student body, faculty and leading citizens were addressed by Judge Pritchard, Hrs. Hahn, Doctor Massee, President Dudley, Brodie L. Duke, Hon. N. B. Broughton, Col. Jas. H. Young, Prof. S. G. Atkins and others. The school opened, with an excellent enrollment. The picturesque grounds, large buildings and able corps of teachers from the best schools in the country make this institution, although young, among the best in the country. The advisory board met and the plans presented by Doctor Shepard were favorably acted upon. WOODLAWN PARK The Beautiful The logical home for Colored people.

Sunday School Lesson for Oct. 23, 1910. Specially Arranged for This Paper. GOLDEN TEXT—"And it came to pass, when the days were well nigh come that he should be received up, he steadfastly set his face to go to Jerusalem, and sent messengers before his face."—Luke 9:51. The first element of a good review is to make it a real review, a general view of the whole period which, has been studied. In this case our review covers 13 lessons, from Lesson III of the third quarter to Lesson III of this quarter. The second element is that the review be made attractive and interesting. And it can be so conducted both in the class and for the whole school as to become one of the most attractive and helpful sessions of the year. The period covered by this review extends from the summer of A. D. 29 to April 4, A. D. 30; about nine months. The place in the life of Christ is the last part of the great Gallilean ministry; the whole of the Perean ministry in the country east of the Jordan; and the last four days of Christ's public ministry, in Jerusalem and vicinity. The Map.—Trace on the map the movements of Jesus—Capernaum, Caesarea, Philippi, Gallilee, Capernaum, Jerusalem, Gallilee, Perea, Jericho, Bethany, Mount of Olives, Jerusalem. Picture Review. — Reproductions from photographs of great paintings, and of Biblical and historical places and events (both in color and in black and white), are now so reasonable in price as to make them available for regular use in the class or Sunday school. It is a great help to the memory, if each class or each scholar makes a picture book of this part of the life of Christ. The best book for this purpose is one made for this object, of 140 pages, with a peculiar but simple back, which enables one to fill the book with pictures without at all distorting the covers, which are of heavy board covered with tasty paper. Great interest can be added to the making of these volumes in various ways. They are ornamented with pen drawings. "For instance, the fact of Jesus working as a carpenter during his young manhood is happily illustrated by sketching a hammer, a jackknife, saw, or other carpenter's tols." Maps and charts and small pictures can be cut out of disused Quarterlies; illustrations can be preserved from magazines and newspapers; small cards can be obtained with beautifully arranged pressed flowers in various actual colors, from different parts of Palestine which Jesus has made sacred, two cents each, in packages of 25. The Topical Review.—Let the scholars go through the lessons during the previous week, some taking one class of subjects, and others another, if they are unable to examine all thoroughly. 1. Find all the statements that were applied to the life of the apostles. 2. Find those two which contain references to children. 3. Find those which refer to marriage feasts. 4. Find those which are based on vineyards. 5. Tell the story of each of the parables. 6. Tell the story of the triumphal entry. 7. What do we learn about watching? 8. Note the references to Christ's suffering and death.
