VOLUME XXVII. BIGGEST OF ALL TRUSTS YIELDS Billion-dollar Steel Corporation Planning to Dissolve. Officials of the Company in Frequent Consultation With Attorney General Wickerham. New York.—It was reported here on excellent authority that the matter of dissolving and reorganizing the United States Steel Corporation is receiving the earnest attention of the Department of Justice and the legal representatives of the so-called "Billion-dollar Trust." There is ground also for the assertion that the Steel Corporation is making a strenuous effort to meet the demands of the government, but by reason of the complexity of the situation little headway has yet been made. Chairman E. H. Gary declined to discuss the status of affairs, and Francis Linde Stetson, the corporation's general counsel, would not affirm nor deny the report that negotiations looking to a voluntary dissolution are contemplated. To those who have followed the operations of the United States Steel Corporation since its inception a decade ago the work of disintegrating and reorganizing the largest industrial combination over organized represents a task of titanic proportions. Many of the subsidiaries which helped to make up the corporation have lost practically all semblance of their original selves, and in the opinion of dispassionate observers it would be well-nigh impossible to restore original equities. It is a matter of common knowledge that a large part of the $500,000,000 common stock originally represented little more than bonuses, or water. On the other hand, it has been admitted by government investigators that much of this inflated value has been replaced in recent years by moneys taken out of earnings. In fact, the report of the Department of Commerce and Labor has practically fixed upon a value of $50 for the common shares, because of the millions put into new construction, betterment, depreciation, etc. Quite apart from the legal obstacles which are said to beset the path of the United States Steel Corporation, it is evident that trade conditions are distinctly adverse. For the last three months such new business as the company has received has been at marked price concessions. This, of course, is equally true of the many independent companies, but the latter have had a distinct advantage in the fact that their wage schedules were generally lower than those of the big corporation. BROTHER KILLS BROTHER. Hoe is Used With Fatal Effect in Fight on Farm. Salisbury, Md.—Walston's Switch, a little village about five miles east of Salisbury, was the scene of a bloody conflict in a cornfield in which Theodore Ennis killed his younger brother, Eddie, in the presence of their father, John Ennis. The father and his son Theodore had some words concerning the shares of corn due each, and Eddie Ennis became involved in the dispute. Eddie pulled his knife from his pocket and lunged at his brother Theodore, cutting him and also cutting the father's clothing while he was attempting to separate the boys. Theodore seized a hoe, and the two brothers went at each other fiercely, and after several gashes had been inflicted by each Theodore sent the sharp edge of his hoe into the brain of his brother. Eddie fell to the ground and died at the house shortly after being carried there by his mother and father. SLEEP IN BATH TUBS Indians in Southern California Use Them For Beds. Banning, Cal.—Although most of the improvements installed for the mission Indians of Southern California by the Bureau of Indian Affairs have been gratefully received by the red men, the bathtubs installed two years ago never were appreciated until recently. The bathtubs in the Indian Home were regarded with suspicion and remained unused until one of the old chiefs discovered that they made excellent beds. He communicated the discovery to others, and now the head of each family possessed of a tub seeks his nightly repose within it. TO . THE RESCUE (Copyright, 1911.) SPAIN UNDER MARTIAL LAW Revolutionary Plot Behind the Strikes--A Judge Is Murdered. 1944 1914 Madrid.—King Alfonso signed a decree suspending the constitutional guarantees throughout Spain. This is equivalent to declaring the country under martial law. This act, which had been under consideration for some days, was taken to give the government powers time to deal sharply and promptly with the revolutionary agitation now fermenting in many parts of Spain, especially in the cities and industrial districts, where Republican and revolutionary plans are being further under cover of workingmen's strikes. Spain is face to face with a crisis equal in gravity to that following the riots in Barcelona in 1909. The situation is bad. The agitation and the power of the agitators on the masses have increased in proportion to the rigor of the repressive measures undertaken by the government. What at its origin was purely a labor movement has now developed into a revolutionary conflict. a commune having actually been proclaimed at two towns near Valencia. At these places the authorities were driven out of the districts. The affiliated trades unions have decided to call a general strike throughout the length and breadth of Spain, and the government, abandoning the tone of optimism heretofore maintained, decided upon the drastic step of "suspending the constitutional guarantees" throughout the whole country. It was explained, however, that in so doing the government did not seek to persecute the trades unions, but it was made quite clear that any attempts to stir up a rebellion would be rigorously punished. All meetings have been forbidden. The military authorities, it is further stated officially, will not assume control except in extreme cases. Well-known Republican parliamentary leaders stand aside from the present movement, which is socialistic and destructive in character. Announces His Intention to Succeed Himse.£ Columbia, S. C.—Senator Benj. B. Tillman's announcement that he was a candidate to succeed himself, was made public here, refuting recent stories that he might refuse to run again because of failing health. A. Senator Tillman probably will be opposed by former Congressman W. J. Tabert, of this city. TILLMAN TO RUN AGAIN. BENJAMIN R. TILLMAN. U. S. Senator from South Carolina. While Senator Tillman was in town he purchased two. pitchforks—for agricultural purposes—and carried them to his home in Trenton. BUTCHERED IN THEIR BEDS Two Families Exterminated at Colorado Springs—Heads Smashed WI:h Ax. Colorado Springs, Col.—Butchered in their beds by some person as yet unknown, who used an axe, the bodies of six persons, three in each of two neighboring houses, were found here Wednesday. The heads of all the victims had been smashed in and the appearance of the bodies indicated that they had been dead several days, and that death came while they slept. A report says that the murderer has been caught and that he has confessed, but this is denied by the police officials, who, it is intimated, fear a lynching might follow such an announcement. An axe which had been loaned to Mrs. Henry F. Wayne, one of the victims, by J. R. Evans, a neighbor, last week, was found blood stained by Mrs. Evans on Monday near the back door of the Wayne home. No attention was paid to this fact, however, as it was thought the axe had been used in killing chickens. The dead: Mrs. Alfie May Burnham, wife of A. J. Burnham, cook at the Modern Woodmen Sanitarium. Alice, aged six, and John, aged three years, their two children. Henry F. Wayne, a consumptive, until recently a patient at the Wood- men Sanitarium. Mrs. Wayne and her one-year-old baby girl. The Burnham house is situated at Dale street and Harrison Place, and the two houses next to it on Dale street are vacant. Directly in the rear is the Wayne home and close to it is that of Evans. The discovery of the bodies was made by a neighbor who called at the Burnham home. Not getting any response and noticing a strong odor, she forced an entrance. The bodies of Mrs. Burnham and those of her two children were found in their beds, which were covered with blood, and the walls and ceiling were also spattered. The woman rushed to the street and gave the alarm. Instinctively a dozen persons went to the Wayne house, where there had been no signs of life since Sunday and the same terrible scene was presented. In bed were the bodies of Mr. and Mrs. Wayne and their baby, all horribly mangled as in the case of the bodies in the Burnham house. That such a crime had been committed in a thickly settled neighborhood and left unrevealed for three days is regarded as incredible. Not even a footprint is to be found on the floor of either house, and no one could be found who had seen anyone about the premises since Sunday when all the murdered persons at different times were in a neighboring grocery. A KISSLESS HUSBAND: Judge Grants Mrs. Mary Lyle Willis a Divorce. Kansas City.—If a husband will not permit his wife to kiss him, then she is entitled to a divorce, decided Judge Walter A. Powell, in the Circuit Court at Independence, Mo., in the case of Mrs. Mary Lyle Willis against Archie C. Willis. "When I would attempt to fondle and kiss him he would call me silly and tell me to go away," the woman testified. Judge Powell immediately granted her a decree. Big Oil Fire Loss $1,250,000. Los Angeles, Cal.-The fire at the plant of the Hercules Oil Refining Company at Vernon, which has burned for 24 hours, was brought under control Tuesday night. CANADA REJECTS RECIPROCITY Laurier Government Defeated by Canadians. BORDEN WILL BE PREMIER Indications That the Opposition Will Have a Majority-In Parliament-- Laurier Fifteen Years Premier. The new Parliament will be made up about as follows: Province. Lib. Con. Ontario 13 70 Quebec 36 27 Nova Scotia 10 8 New Brunswick 8 5 P. E. I. 2 2 Manitoba 1 9 Saskatchewan 7 3 Alberta 4 1 Brit. Columbia 0 6 Totals 81 131 Opposition, majority, 50 Montreal.—The Laurier government and reciprocity suffered an overwhelming defeat in the Canadian elections held Thursday. By a veritable political landslide the Liberal majority of 43 was swept away and the Conservative party secured one of the heaviest majorities, upward of 50, that any Canadian party has ever had. Seven cabinet ministers who had served with Premier Laurier were among the defeated candidates. The Liberals lost ground in practically every province of the Dominion. Where they won their majorities were small. Where the Conservatives won their majorities were tremendous. Ontario, the leading province of Canada, declared almost unanimously against the administration and reciprocity. Robert L. Borden, leader of the Conservative party, will shortly become the prime minister of Canada. He will be supported in Parliament by a working majority of members far more than ample for his purposes. The government defeat means that the Fielding-Knox reciprocity agreement, ratified by the American Congress in extra session, will not be introduced when the Twelfth Parliament assembles next month and that a revised basis of trade with the United States, looking to closer commercial relations, will not be possible in the immediate future. The Conservatives are committed to a policy of trade expansion within the empire and a closed door against the United States. Although re-elected in two constituencies in Quebec, the defeat of the Liberal party also means the retirement from public life of Sir Wilfrid Laurier, who for nearly two decades has directed the destinies of the Dominion. COLD STORAGE THE SAVIOR. Sarlous Food Riots Prevented By The Industry. Chicago.—Food riots as serious as those now disturbing European cities are averted in America by the cold-storage industry, according to Chas. E. McNeill, secretary of the National Poultry and Egg Association, who spoke before the Chicago Association of Commerce. "The cold-storage industry is the great modern equalizer of prices for food, and legislation which seeks to limit butter, poultry and egg storage to three months would result in exorbitant prices next year." Editor Shoots Jeweler. Rock Island, III.—John J. Looney, editor of the Rock Island News, is under the care of physicians and is in a badly bruised condition, and Jake Ramser, a jeweler, has a severe bullet wound in his hand as a result of trouble between the two. Ramser, it is claimed, resented things Looney said about him in his paper, and the two had a quarrel in a barber shop. Ramser was shot through the hand. Gun Explodes; Six Dead. Toulon, France.—A gun on the French armored cruiser Gloire burst, killing one gunner and injuring 13 members of the crew. Five of the injured men died later in the day, making a total of six dead. The accident occurred during target practice at sea, a port gun exploding as a projectile was being inserted in the breech MANY ORDERS FOR PHEASANT Farmers of Idaho Think Birds Will Prove Valuable as Pest Exterminators. Ioland C. Voddard is in Boise, Ida., after an extensive trip through the southern part of the state, where he has been placing orders for hundreds of pheasant among the farmers, who have been persuaded that the birds will prove valuable as grasshopper exterminators. "I have placed these birds in Wyoming and Utah," said Mr. Voddard, "and everywhere I have been most successful. The birds apparently have an unlimited capacity for grasshoppers and consume quantities of them every day. The old-fashioned idea of using paris green and other poisons to rid any country of the pests is rapidly giving way. "In some parts of Utah last summer many ranchers used a sort of tin net, which they dragged across the field and resulted in the killing of millions of the insects. On one field of 120 acres 30 sacks filled with grasshoppers were taken by means of these nets. But the pheasants are far more effective. "There will be hundreds of pheasants in the southwestern part of the state this year as a result of the activity of the farmers." "If turkeys are allowed to run in the fields the benefits are great, for the big birds can live for a long time on a diet of grasshoppers. The amount of the pests which the pheasant will consume will be nearly twice as much. "The idea of placing pheasants on farming tracts for the purpose of doing away with the grasshoppers was started years ago in Kansas, when farmers of that state ran out of paris green and had to find some new scheme of ridding their country of grasshoppers."—New York Herald. ANY OF THEM THE WEDDING OF MARY AND JOHN The bride was led to the altar Is an exceedingly foolish remark; As a matter of fact it isn't correct— She could find her way in the dark. TOO EAGER TO PROMISE. II. B. Irving once had an amusing experience in Glasgow. For the part of the young prince in "Charles I," a young Scotch girl had been carefully coached, and all went well until she appeared in the poignant scene where Mr. Irving, as Charles, has an agonizing leave-taking with his wife and children, and goes out to execution. "Promise me," Charles says to the little prince, "that you will take care of your mother. And swear that you will never let them make you king while your brother Charles is alive." To which the child is supposed to reply: "I'll be torn to pieces first." On this dreadful night, however, Mr. Irying only got as far as "promise me that you will take care of your mother." "I'll be for-r-en to pieces fir-r-st," was the annihilating reply. HER ORDER. Two women, evidently of rural origin, recently entered a millinery establishment in Chicago, and the elder of the two gave this order to the saleswoman: "I want a mourning hat, as I am in mourning. But my daughter here," waving her hand in the direction of her companion, "is a widder of two years' standing, and she is in light distress. You might show her a hat with some red feathers on it." Therefore the Photographer Didn't Tell the Customer He Was Sitting on His Hat. "Look pleasant," said the photographer. The sitter raised his eyes and gave a sickly smirk. "Your head just a little bit more to the left, please," suggested the voice from the black shroud. "No, don't move the eyes." Like a man suffering from a stiff neck, on an Eiffel tower collar, the sitter tilted his head gingerly till it reached the desired angle, and, he resembled a dying fish trying not to mind. "That's very nice—very nice, indeed," said the photographer. "Stay just there while I make the exposure." He removed the cap as he spoke and counted out a minute and three-quarters. "Thank you, air," he then observed. "You can get up. I'm afraid you've been sitting on your hat." "My hat!" roared the sitter, angrily regarding the flattened felt. "Why the dickens didn't you tell me I was sitting on it?" "My dear sir," protested the photographer, blandly, "that would have spoiled your expression!"—Answers. A NOISELESS KISS WANTED Baker Geraldine—You mustn't make any noise when you kiss me. Gerald—Afraid we'll frighten the microbes? Memory handed down through 30 generations is one of the perplexing facts of science. The beaver flourished along French rivers until killed off for its fur, but is now known only in about a dozen of the villages on the Rhone near Avignon. For three centuries these villages have had no trees to cut down for dams. The animals were compelled to adopt a new mode of life and have burrowed in the banks, shaping mud with their tails as usual. Recently some of them were taken by a Polish count to forests on his estates. Very strangely, they resumed the habits dropped three centuries before they were born, and at once began cutting trees and building dams. A CHEAP CYNIC. Champ Clark, at a banquet in Washington, defended the honesty of American politics. "It is cheap cynicism," he said, "nothing but cheap cynicism, to talk like Binks. "Do you think it follows,' a friend said to Binks, 'that because a man is a politician he is a liar?' "Oh, no,' Binks retorted; 'but unless a man was an expert liar I don't believe he could be called much of a politician.'" JAPAN'S EXAMPLE TO EGYPT. Japan decided at a certain moment in her career that western civilization was a necessity for her; she engaged western instructors and retained them until she had learnt all they could teach. And now Japan is self-dependent and independent; because Japan has taken and assimilated to the full all that she needed from the west and all that the west could give her. This is the ideal of Egypt—Egyptian Observer POETRY of and by Our People UNNAMED SAINTS. Brought all he loved across the sea, To live and work g adorf noG ridoulo To live and work for God and me; Felled the ungrassed oak, With horrid toll Dragged from the soil The three-gnarled roots and stubborn rock; With plenty filled the haggard mountain- side. And when his work was done, without memorial died. No blaring trumpet sounded out his fame; He lived, he died, I do not know his name. No form of bronze and no memorial stones Show me the place where lie his moldering bones. Only a cheerful city stands, Bullied by his hardened hands- Only ten thousand homes, Where every day The cheerful play Of love and hope and courage comes; These are his monuments, and these alone- There is no form of bronze and no memorial stone. And I? Is there some desert or some boundless sea Where thou, great God of angels, wilt send me? Some oak for me to rend, some sod For me to break, Some handful-of thy corn to take, Are scattered far afield, Till it in turn shall yield Its hundredfold Of grains of gold, To feed the happy children of my God?

Way down South in Dikle land Shines the sun today; Memory sees through fleeting years Little folks at play, Catchling crawfish in the pond. Overgrown with grasses. Just behind the sugar house Where the long road passes. Silent is the engine room— Bollerv rusted over; Still, the whirling governor balls— But there, blooms the clover! Little faces flushed and hot Watch for crawfish shy; Sunnobnets and phlafores Very much awry! Bees are humming; butterflies Filt from bloom to bloom. See, the great red crawfish comes Slowly to his doom! Reaches out his long sharp claws— Smells the tempting bait— Seizes hold-ha, shouts of joy, He has met his fate! Flercely claws and goggle eyes Hold the foe at bay, While he swiftly down the bank Backs and crawls away. Eager little fingers then Balt again with glee; Never any crawfish yet Quite so big as he! Softly through the summer air ^Thistledown is sailing. Breezes blow and white clouds drift. Rattles unavailing. Wearlge grow the little hands Of ligh and fishing pole; Leave the old red crawfish then To etink within his hole! —M. E. Buhler, in New York Times THE GARDENER A gardener old, with eyes and senses keen, Bent o'er his garden plot of springing green And tended carefully each tiny shoot. Each usn-flecked leaf and struggling little root, When suddenly he spied a strange small blade Of which he knew not, and he quickly made A gaping hole the where its root had been, And tossed it o'er the wall among the green, The days went by. In air and shower and sun The tiny blade a tall, slim stalk had even, And, tipping its fair length with sunny light, A great gold illly opened to the sight. The gardner, looking o'er the wall one day, Espied the thing which he had thrown away, And with a sigh and sad, regretful air, 'Its looks were wicked, but its soul was fair.' 'Tis ever thus. The flowers are tossed aside, The weeds remain. The gardeners in their pride See not the future, only the today. And throw the sweetest things of life away. —W. P. Steinhaeuser, in the Lutheran.

Whenever a member of congress has a story to tell about that famous humorist, ill Nye, he hunts up Representative Frank M. Nye of Minnesota, his brother. Representative Gould of Maine cornered Nye in the lobby of the capitol the other day and said that while most of the stories that are told have been jokes which Bill Nye turned on the other fellow yet he remembered one incident where the joke was on the humorist. "Your brother was living in New York at the time," said Gould, "and a neighbor from Shirley, Me., where you both were born, dropped in to see him. "You know the old house is about all that is left of the town,' remarked the visitor. "Yes, I suppose that's so," said Nye. "They think a great deal of you there. The old house stands on the corner and they have put a tablet in front of it." "Bill was all attention. He leaned forward and inquired: "What was on the tablet?" "Eight miles to Readville,' said the visitor." THE ROBIN'S VOICE. Mrs. Isaac L. Rice, president of the Society for the Suppression of Unnecessary Noise, was talking in New York. about the advantages of deafness. "When our society," she said, "achieves all it has set out to achieve, then deafness will no longer be an advantage. It's a distinct advantage now, softening to a murmur, or annihilating altogether, the clatter and bang of life. "Yes, deafness is a distinct advantage now. I know a dear old gentleman, happily quite deaf, who was awakened at dawn one April morning by a terrific, maddening series of shrieks from a freight locomotive. "Well, well," he said, pleasantly, posing himself to slumber again, 'that's the first robin I've heard this spring.'" LOVE IS STILL BLIND. "Melissa is romantic." "Anything romantic about her recent marriage?" "Of course. You see, she had-always dreamed of belug rescued from drowning by a handsome six-footer with dark, dreamy eyes and a Charles Dana Gibson chin. So when she was at the seaside in June she went out too far—perhaps by design—and screamed and splashed water and was rescued. And, say, the man who rescued her was a little sawed-off person with sandy hair, a squint and a pointed chin." "Good gracious, what did she do?" "She married him."—Cleveland Plain Dealer. EDISON AND THE MAGNATES. The following anecdote was related last week of Thomas A. Edison. A meeting of directors had been held a few days before at his Orange laboratory. The conversation turned on the recent indictment against trusts. Edison mentioned that he had been present at a dinner of "captains of industry" some time ago. One of the directors said: "Edison, how was it that you were invited to dine with that crowd?" He replied without a moment's hes He replied without a moment's hesitation: "Oh, I suppose it was to dilute the company."—Harper's Weekly. TRUISMS FROM EARTH'S FOUR CORNERS.

A QUESTION OF TIME. Not far from the Brooklyn bridge is a news stand over which an exceedingly alert woman presides. She does a thriving trade, and her tongue is a rapid worker. On a recent Wednesday evening a passenger halted, noticing a fresh issue of a weekly publication that was not usually on sale until the following day. He purchased a copy, remarking at the same time upon its early appearance. "Oh, yes," ejaculated the live-wire news woman. "You see, it generally comes tomorrow, but tonight it came today." The purchaser passed on with a dazed expression—New York Globe. QUITE EASY. "I want to do something that will cause me to be talked about," said the ambitious man. "That's easily arranged," answered his wife. "Merely move into a strange neighborhood." "I asked her to marry me, and she gave me a supreme court answer." "What kind of an answer is that?" "Said she would give me six months to readjust myself so as to be acceptable." "Puck." NOTES OF NEGRO BUSINESS LEAGUE AS REPORTED BY OLD HICKORY IN THE DALLAS EXPRESS. In his address to The Negro Business League, Dr. Washington said: 'The peculiar value of this league, however, is not in the size of the national organization nor in the number of local leagues, but in the work and influence of the league in turning the attention of members of our race to the rich opportunity that is right about them in their own communities for industrial and business growth. The value of this league consists mainly in the new spirit that it has put into the race—a spirit that turns the impossible to the possible, from that which is artificial and unstable to that which is natural and enduring. "The National Negro Business League, too, is unlike many other organizations in the fact that it is not a secret organization; it has no grips and pass-words, and offers no sick and death benefits. Nor is this in any sense a political organization. Let me add, too, that the Business League is not in opposition to any other organization that is meant to help our race, but stands ready to help and co-operate with all other worthy organizations." The foregoing paragraph sets forth the reason for the existence and the peculiar value of the league. It can be seen that as a source of race inspiration and confidence it has no equal among organizations today. And the reason is plain: A Negro is inspired a great deal more by the success of a Negro than he is by the success and achievements of the white man. To the latter every avenue under the sun is open. To the former nineteenth of the gainful occupations are closed. A white man or any man other than a Negro, may prepare himself for a position as bank cashier, bookkeeper, commercial salesman or expert machinist and positions awalt his acceptance. The Negro must go a step further: after preparation comes creation. He must create his bank, his store or machine shop. The other man has only to go out and conquer worlds already existing, the Negro can't do any conquering until he has called worlds into existence. For this reason I always feel like dooming my old hat to the man who has made good in regions where his presence—not alone his success—cause genuine surprise. We like to hear or read the story of "Negroes who have stolen the keys of sleeping destiny and made the prophets he." To this class belong the men who told their story at the Business Lengue. Here follows the stories of a few of them: J. T. Walton of San Antonio. Tex. read a paper on "Personal Experiences as a Contractor and Builder," which showed the wonderful work he was doing on behalf of himself and the colored race in the city of San Antonio; that he was teaching them to own their own homes. He said that to date he had built 135 homes for colored people, and he himself built thirty-three, all within three years, and that he has in construction eight more, to be completed August 1st. That in the last three years he has, with his assistants, built $114.098.07 worth of homes for the colored people, ranging in price from $325.00 to $3000.00, and that he has paid out in those years $24,656.12 for labor, all of which was colored, with the exception of tinners, but he soon expected to have colored tinners. He said that the bell-boys and barbers were saving their money and buying lots and starting homes, believing that the time to marry was when they had their lot and house started. Mr. Walton gave a concrete example of what the colored man can do, if energetic and has faith in himself. Mr. Walton is his own architect—self-taught—and draws his plans and specifications himself. He gives employment to twenty-five young men who have studied their trades in school. The men who are teaching the boys and girls of the race how to do, and the men who give them something to do, are together making good in the matter of race uplift. Among the people for whom Mr. Walton has built homes are the parents of Monk Gibson, the boy who was hanged for the murder of a family some years ago. Mr. Spencer Patterson of St. Denis, Miss., spoke on "Truck Farming as a Business Investment," and has a truck farm of 700 acres which he rents, as it is cheaper to rent than to own, though he has land of his own. He raises peas, strawberries, tomatoes, cabbage and corn, and gets a good price for his products. In his town they have a local business league, composed of fifty men and women; about thirty of the men have farms, and the balance follow the professions. At one time they were earning $1.50 a day, blu through co-operation some of them are worth from $20,000 to $25,000. Mr. Geo. Goadland of Bloomington, Ill., recounted the story of his success in "Manufacturing Sanitary Oils and Mops." His product goes by the very suggestive name of "Oil of Gladness," and is shipped to every part of the world. Mr. Goadland has a pay-roll of about $8,000 a month and gives employment to scores of people. The following list of subjects discussed shows the diverse fields of activity into which the colored brother has broken: "My Success as a Real Estate Dealer," J. Leon Jones, Houston, Texas. "General Merchandising," by J. C. Cross, Brownsville, Texas. "Raising and Shipping Fruits and Poultry," by J. W. Brown of Prospect, Tenn. "Why I Am Called the 'Pickle King,'" by Samuel Ballton of Greenlaw, L. I. "My Success as a Wholesale Dealer in Grain, Hay and Fuel," by J. E. Williams, Columbus, O. "My Success as a Horticulturist," by Joseph Brown of Nashville, Tenn. "My Success as a Wholesale Dealer in Salt and Fresh Fish," by N. W. Ryan of Edenton, N. C. "Blacksmithing and Wheelwrighting," by Isom Jefferson, Lexington, Miss. In observing the variety of callings into which the Negro has forced his way and in which he has scored success one is reminded of the story of the church sexton who was asked how he liked the way the new minister prayed as compared with the former minister. "Why, mans" he answered, "dis here new preacher asks for things I didn't know the Lord had!" Mr. Hilliard Taylor of Boley, speaking on "irr the Cotton Market," stated that he came to Boley in June, 1904, and built a gin, got it ready for operation by September 22, and began cutting cotton. The first year he cut 186 bales, the second year 440 bales, the third year 840 bales, fourth, 935 bales, fifth 1,020 bales, sixth 1,298 bales, the seventh year, 1,705 bales. (Applause.) "I am going to cut 2,000 bales this year. (Applause.) There are three gins in Boley. We ginned 3,500 bales last year. We believe we will gin between 5,000 and 6,000 this year. The capacity of those three gins is 150 bales per day. We buy the cotton in the raw material from the field, gin, pack, throw it in the yard, class, and sell it to the highest bidder and take the money. We have a handsome little bank at Boley, and it furnished me last year $56,982.12 to take up the crop. (Applause.) That cash was sent, not to the foreign merchant, but to the farmer, one by one, as he came fn. All our cotton was sold within 100 miles, to local buyers. "The Ft. Smith & Western R. R. asked me to call upon this league to have them do what they can to train some young men along the lines of telegraphy. We have four towns on the Ft. Smith & Western where we need telegraph operators. We have called upon Dr. Washington to send us telegraph operators; but his reply was he could not find any. There will be one or two needed in each place." (Applause.) Mr. Scott Bond of Madison, Ark., asked the speaker if he bought cotton in the seed how he could class it. The speaker said, "I don't propose to grade the cotton of the man who sells in the seed. That's for him to say whether he wants to sell In the seed or gin and class it. When I buy I buy it for what the market calls for that class of cotton, and when I put it into the bale I class it." Mr. Bond stated that the speaker had not answered his question. "Was it more profitable to the farmer to sell cotton in the seed?" The speaker replied, "In some cases it is and others it is not," which statement was greeted with applause from the Oklahoma delegation. It may be mentloned in passing that Mr. Scott Bond owns 3,000 acres of farm land, from which he derives an income of several thousand dollars annually. Mr. Charles Ford of Taft, another colored town in Oklahoma, showed the work he had accomplished in the cotton market, and handled all questions with skill and intelligence. He said that some years ago, hailing from Louisiana, he went into Oklahoma and broke into the cotton market, without experience and money, and made good. He was told that he could not buy or weigh cotton but one of the very men who made that statement afterwards offered to hire him at a salary of $50.00, which he accepted as he was getting $55.00 at the time. He was given a raise to $75.00. His employer told him, "I thought you could handle the colored men, but you handle the white men as well." He went to Galveston, to Mr. Moody, expert classer, and asked to see the different types of cotton from nondescript to strict good middling, and called the grade and staple of each. Mr. Moody told him he could class as good as he could. He wasn't satisfied, however, until he went to Louisiana and classed the grades of that season's crop. The speaker said he handled more cotton than any colored man in Oklahoma, and was the first colored man to buy a bale of cotton and ship it. Mr. J. R. Reynolds of Marshall, Tex., made an interesting talk on his connection with the installation of the electric light and power plant in Boley, the only town in the country, with the exception of Tuskegee, where such a plant exist controlled and operated by Negroes. He said they have tried to discourage him in his work of training young colored men in electrical engineering, because only mental positions are offered to them. He said that a white man of Marshall, Texas, said to one of his pupils, "What's the use of your studying electrical engineering! You may learn it but you can't get a job after you learn it. Your professor may know electrical engineering as well as our city superintendent, but if ours should die or move away, he could not get the job because he is a colored man." I said to the pupil, "What he said to you is in a great measure, but if you learn electrical engineering thoroughly and then no one will offer you a place, you go out into the world and make your place." (Applause.) For the foregoing very full and graphic report of the League we acknowledge our indebtedness to, "Our Review," a daily paper published during the sittings of The League by Mr. E. M. Wood—a feat that was creditable alike to all concerned. Mr. J. C. Napier was, by association, one of the most attractive and lovable men at the League. He is registrar of the U. S. treasury and his name on our currency is necessary in order to make it go. Money makes the mare go, and Napier makes the money go! Mr. Napler brought two or three trunks full of new bills to the league, and for which members could exchange old money and thus have the new bills—ranging in denomination from $1.00 to $50—as a souvenir. We got hold of some of the new bills—the little ones—but we couldn't hold them till we got home! The Negro funeral directors of the country have invested in the business $2,200,000 and have established a credit basis of the first class. There are fifty-seven Nego banks now in operation—two above and fifty-five below Mason and Dixon's line. The National Negro Bankers' Association today approved a bank guarantee plan for fifty-four Negro banks in the South, whereby it is proposed to protect the deposits of the banks, to correct an evil which may develop in the future. The plan adopted is to raise a guarantee fund of $25,000 to start with and to be deposited in the Penny Savings Bank in Birmingham, Ala., for the use of a governing board to be selected by ballot of the various banks. This board will have authority to select an inspector who is empowered to make examinations of all banks whenever it is deemed expedient. The fund will be protected by an indemnity bond sufficient to protect banks entering into the agreement. The fund for the guaranty will be raised through securing of five hundred dollars by each signatory bank approving the plan. We saw a number of Negroes whose holdings amount to $150,000 to $300,000—one Negro we saw was said to be worth a half-million dollars—made largely in the undertaking business! Prof. H. T. Keeling is without a peer in the Negro race when it comes to clean-cut, concentrated oratory minus all fuss and feathers, generally styled rhetorical flights. He can say more in fewer words and say it more effectively and with less play to the "gallery gods" than any man we have ever heard. The auditorium where the banquet was given was decorated in red, white, and blue, but the color scheme was overwhelmingly and predominately white! Of about 800 women present there were just six' who were very dark-skinned. The others varied in color from near-white to ultra-white. Only a view of the men showed you that it was a black folk's gathering. Were they dressed? Well, Ermanl! it would take a poet to do justice to them in that respect. To paraphrase a verse of Pope. On their bright arms great sparkling gems they wore. Which Jews might kiss and infidels adore. Their hair was so abundant and plentiful I could see that if unplanned it would easily drop to the floor! Mr. J. H. Hines. of Waco promenaded with a lady who acted rather distant towards him until she found out that he was a bank cashier and then a radical change came over the spirit of her drems and also over the spirit of her demeanor. We marched with a gentleman by the name of Mr. Bird. Gee! We liked the latter part of his name, because it brought to mind a word we used to hand out all day long to an old acquaintance of ours. NO FOURTH. Senator Cummins, at a dinner in Des Molnes, was talking about a government-contract that he deemed unfair. "This contract, if accepted," he said, "would work out like the farmer's crop. "A farmer, you know, leased a field to a farm laborer, and the rental was to be one-fourth of the crop raised. "Well, harvest time came in due course, but the farmer was amazed to find that he got nothing. The tenant hauled three loads of produce to his own barn, but there was nothing left for the farmer. He, of course, remonstated. "Here,' he said, 'how's this? Wasn't I to get a fourth of the crop?' "Yes, sir, you was,' the tenant answered excitedly; 'but hang it, there was only three loads, sir.'"—Los Angeles Times. THE ELEPHANT. Judge Ben B. Lindsey, defending woman's suffrage at Albany, said of an opponent: "He objects because he misunderstands. His description of woman's suffrage is about wise and accurate as the little boy's description of the Easter circus elephant.

ECMJ FARM INSTITUTE MAKES GREAT SUCCESS P. C. PARKS ELECTED DIRECTOR—FARMERS HAVE GOT IMPROVE THEIR MESA WODS OF WORK. Atlanta, Ga.—The interest in negro farmers institutes in Georgia culminated at Clark university by perfecting a permanent organization for perpetuating this important work. P. C. Parks, who has done more than any other single man in the state to foster this beneficial institution, was unanimously elected director of the Georgia Colored Farmers' institute, with authority to arrange for another meeting next summer. Director Parks had on display attractive samples of the nine different grades of cotton which have become the recognized standards of cotton classification in the markets of the world. The discussion of the grading of cotton developed many valuable points and a number of farmers offered remarks concerning the careful picking and storing of cotton so as to insure the highest market. The wife of Warren Logan, the treasurer of Booker T. Washington's great institution at Tuskegee, Ala., urged those present to make a careful and palingtaking study of the question of the cultivation and marketing the great staple crop of the south in order that they should be in position to know positively the exact grade of cotton that their own product came under, and thus enable them to dictate to the buyer the price they expected to receive. She cited instances where humble colored farmers in her section of Alabama had exercised care in seed selection, in the cultivation of the growing crop and in the picking of the cotton, and had in that way outstripped their neighbors. P. D. Johnson pleaded with the negroes to use greater foresight and to erect dry cotton houses on their farms, where the cotton could be stored after it came from the field, and said that it was far better to store the seed cotton for a few weeks in a clean place than to rush it to the gin as soon as it was picked. He also argued that too great haste had heretofore marked the harvesting of the crop and begged his audience to wait until the bolls were thoroughly ripe before they were picked; also to be sure to remove the chaff or trash before they deposited the lint in the basket. Professor Johnson dwelt on the misery of the "negro-in-debt" and hoped the colored farmers would learn the lesson of frugality and common sense in order to escape from this great burden. A. Bentley, an bell-blethum darky, with snow white hair and a voice that readily lent itself to all the uses of oratory, made an address that sank deeply at the tendency of the new generation of negroes toward irresponsibility. He made a striking contrast between conditions as they existed before the war and as they exist today. His speech called to mind the eloquence that marked the earlier years of the last century, and his hearers gave vent to their approval by frequent outbursts of applause. G. F. Hunniclutt, editor of the Southern Cultivator, made an address on Growing What You Eat on the Farm," and stated that if the farmers of the south hoped to maintain a high price for cotton they must cease planting every available acre of ground in this crop. In order to keep from buying every article of consumption at retail prices, the speaker said they must raise more corn, oats and hay and give greater attention to their gardens. He showed the enormous economic waste entailed by fertilizing and cultivating twenty acres of cotton when by fertilizing and cultivating only fifteen acres the farmer would get just as much cash for his crop and save the labor and fertilizer that applied on the extra five acres, while devoting those five acres to producing things now purchased for cash or on credit. MEET AT PITTSBURG KNIGHTS AND DAUGHTERS OF TABOR HOLD EIGHTH ANNUAL GRAND SESSION. Pittsburg, Pa.—The annual grand session of the Knights and Daughters of Tabor, or International Order of Twelve, was held in this city at Continental hall, Center avenue. The International Order of Twelve is an interesting organization in view of the fact that its founder was a negro. The order was founded during the days of slavery of Moses Dixon. The association has grown until it has as its members some of the most prominent and best known women and men of the race. Sir M. E. Merchant, of Columbus, O., is the grand chief of this division, and Sir S. A. Jordan, of Little Rock, Ark., is the international grand chief. Both were present at this important session. Sir H. S. Bates, of Ebenezer Baptist Church choir, of which the Rev. W. W. Brown is pastor, is an active member. In speaking of the society one of the prominent members said: "There is no possibility of any of the white associations entering law suits' restraining us from using their signs, emblems and regalia, for everything we are using is the product of negro brains." Better to have fished and lied than never baited hook at all. ```markdown ``` Baroness's Von Grooss, wife of George S. Wilkins of New York, has strong hope of solving the American servant problem.

Education and wealth are both beet-set with many-dangerous perils. Especially is this true in a race that had its beginnings like ours had forty-five years ago. Some of the downgrades have been specially favored with the advantages of an experienced college education, and likewise some of the few that have been blessed with the tact for acquiring something that had good sense to know and to feel that their highly favored conditions only entailed upon them, the most the task of helping to raise those of the race, who were less favored. There have been others of the favored few who have little interest in their education that their education and wealth was to put them beyond the reach of their fellows and thus leave them to struggle up the hill by themselves, or else wither and die in the misery of their own morrow and sorrow. Our attention has been called to the project of infant baptism by some of my pastors and the many people that should be baptized eagerly and more faithfully performed. Send to it brother that every child in your congregation is baptised and properly instructed in the things that "pertain to his soul's health".

This movement in India has the power and public life. It sets up the idea of a home where would stand armies of morals and manners prevail but where Christ is not recognized in Lord and King. How many nominally Christian homes there are would be the proprietors would be given power to lift the name of Christ were spoken aloud within their walls. How many in which the Bible is not read, the voices of prayer is not heard, certain others no a single sign to show that God is honored and worshiped there! Nor is religion not popular nowadays. A Christian home provides such a place and precious time because it is grounded in the belief that it is necessary for the development of the virtues which we worship in the institution. Its shelter, its wise and careful cultivation is intended to grow souls and nothing can make up for the lack of them. The home is the appointed educator of mankind. We have a multitude of institutions which we call "schools," but the Test schools, where the real lesson of life are learned, are the homes of America. We have a great deal about the higher education "that there is." Higher education still fulfills that can be basic in our institution in the later lessons in school, and that face, and problem, and problem, and problem, which names this hand such magnificent power, in teach, that it is training to be in school, or cottage, anywhere in the world, which can take the piece of the discipline of home. Every Christian home is university. Gully equips house, endowed and ables with the highest education which can be gifted to humanity. "Hbma is training laocod to all mankind, it will not only the children, who are to be the saviors there. Often we older children learn more at home than those, who learn young in years. Our Lord's words are literally true, "preceint you become his little children, ye shall enter into the kingdom of heaven." We will help learns in the home school we have to teach them to conquer pride and solitude and wilfulness and discontent in a word, to subdue them, to perform self. We need to learn under, the wholesome discipline of home, to be strong, and patient to be hopeful and brave, to be kind and thoughtful, to be learner and true. How good it is to learn these great lessons of life not by ruddy contact with the hard work world, but in the sacred shelter of our Christian home. Or, we who have such gifts, You have the best thing that is, to be had in this world. Make the most of it. Be true to all its responsibilities. Love your home, cherish it, brighten it, beautify it, it with the fragrance of never-falling love and sympathy, guard it, feauntly夸 anything which might mar its happiness. Remember, you may not have it long. Your home may only day be ruthlessly broken up and may be be cut out into the wide cold world. Then you will wish to carry with you an well-matured character and high and solid principles and all the safeguards which can be had, not the least of which are the bright and happy memories of the home life you have left behind. Make then, your home life, something which it will always be a joy and an inspiration to look back up. All our "Man goeth to his 'long' home." There is allong home which our Lord is preparing for those who love him. Why has God given us these earthly homes? It is not to prepare us to teach us about, to make us deceive, a heavenly home? The high and holy purpose of home life here is to make us homeick for that "home of fadeless, splendor," that "spite" and blessed country which eager heartl "expect."

Satugpar, Serremper 30, 1911 Last Thursday merning an old Colored woman: was coming to town with her produce for market and with her slow country team she was taking things easy going along on the proper side, West Broad street, when suddenly one of the reins sho was holding in her hands broke. The old country mule shied to one side and the old woman lost temporary control of the situation when finally a little Negro boy ran to her assistance, In the meantime a motorcyclist had coms along, going at the ac- custemed rapid pace with which they travel the streets and when the old mule suddenly turned off her course her herd barely grazed the cyclist and kuocked off his exp. The Intter after going a short distance turned around and began remonstrating with the old woman, but fortunately a young mounted policeman whose horse was eating grass just opposite to where the man’s cap was knock- ed off saw the whole atfair nod see- ing that the old woman was being treated unjustly by this upstart cautionad him to move ov as the accident was unavoidable and could not be helped. ‘This-is an ad- mirable example of the fine calibre of some of the young men on the police force and we would be pleased if nll the officers were as manly. - On Monday all of the public schools will open. It will be a gala occazion for the young folk and they are all looking forward to the first day of school with much anticipation. ‘There is noth. ing which delights both teacher and pupil more than a good open- ing day and the parents should see to it that their children start the school year off in the proper manner, Let us see to it that our children make an early de- partura from home in order that they may not be marked “tardy” the first day. A good besinning is the race half finished. Let us impress upon our little ones from the start that it i imperative that they be at school eyery day on time, and the best way to do this "js for us to allow them no excuse for x late start from home, Let’s ‘get them off bright and early Mon- day morning and keep it up through the entire year. Let us see to it that they are fixed up neat and clean so that they will be a credit to us and to them- selves, Let us be sure that they are not’ lacking in the necessary hooks and other school necessi- ties for if there is anything which is embarrassing to children it is ‘for them not to be able to be well supplied the first day of school with those things which the scheol regulations require. Let us not permit our children to feel as if they are neglected in this respect. aAnd finally Iet us im- press upon them that we expect geod work out of them, for often a child makes progress in just such proportion as we exact of him Several months ago we mad mention of the fact that a large proportion of the women of the under world who were once con. fined within certain préseribed limits Jnthe northeastern part of the city had migrated to the vicinity of Bolton and Burroughs streete and were causing — the peaceful and respectable. colored citizens of this section grave con- cern on account of ‘their pre- sence. These women are now not- confined to any small area but are continually spreading through. out the entire western section of the city and have become a seri- ous menace to the youth of that district. Again we call the atten- tion to the prasence of these women and their baleful influence. They are contaminating our young boys and girls who of necessity must pass along the streets upen which these women live. We cannot hope to cave these youn people who are so environed. They are the hope of the race and upon their -proper traiting de- - «| pends the future eleyation of the race. And to the parents of these children so surrounded we wish to advise that they should not cease their efforts to have these women, of the under world remored. ‘These women and their men fol- lowers, sometime yery young ones, have become so emboldened as to create some very disgraceful scenes. ‘The respectable resi- dents of this section can scarcely pass an evening upon their porches without being compelled to witness these shameful scenes. fhe colored property owners of this section have become so alarmed at the situation that they have actually hesitated to make necessary improvements upon their property for fear that the conditions may become worse in- stead of better, It behooves the white citizens to giye some thought to this serious matter for it is from just such respectable colored families that they are to draw their servants. Servants are thrown into close relation with their children, at times even the rearing of them, and their in- fluence upon them is-consequently very great. And frum this selfish reason alone, if from no other motive, the respectable white families should join in the crusade against these lewd women. It is a crying evil and should be stamped out immediately. ‘These women, as is the case in most re- putable cities, should be closely restricted to certain districts and) made to.remain there. We plead’ with the authorities to see that our humble homes are protected and that our children be given a chance to develop the best that is in themand ina pure and whole- some utmoshere. : Prof. J.

Reid, and also brother Thomas W. Reid, the former our Vice President, and also President of St. Philip, Charles and West Broad Street, League, who had spread sunshine as she labored so cheerfully and arduously among us, and whereas we bow in humble submission to Him who is too good to err, too wise to make a mistake, therefore be it Resolved that, in the demise of Sister Reid the Allen Christian Endeavor League feels that she slept away as one who wraps the drapery of her couch about her and lies down to pleasant dreams and we cherish her memory, knowing that she was faithful to the call of duty at all times and we shall strive to emulate the precedent laid down by her, our worthy sister, know that our loss is her eternal gain—Be it again Resolved, that we shall not mourn the loss of our beloved Sister for The saints who die of God possessed Enter into immediate rest For them no further test remains Of purging fires and torturing pains Who trusting in their Lord depart Cleansed from all sin and pure in heart Close followed by their works they go Their purchase day to know Yet glorified by grace alone They cast their crowns before the throne And fill the echoing courts above With praises of redeeming Love. Knowing that some sweet day we shall be permitted to clasp her glad hands when we meet to part no more. Her place among us cannot easily be filled, with bowed heads and sorrowing hearts we calmly say, Thy will be done. And lastly be it Resolved that a copy of these Resolutions be sent to the bereaved family, be spread on a page of our minutes and be published in The Savannah Tribune and Savannah Independent. C. W. Alexander, Chairman W. O. P. Sherman, Jr. Mrs. L. Drayton R. A. Robinson' P. C. Perry In Memory of DR. S. PALMER LLOYD, Two years ago death to him a summons brought And claimed this beloved for its own, Although so hard we fought— To keep life's spark on Earth with us, Who dearly loved him so. We could not win, for God had bade That he from us should go, And each day we hope and pray that God—his soul has happy made And for his kind deeds here on Earth— in Heaven he repaid, A brother he was good and kind A son devoted and true; A kind act for everyone; to those— a friend he knew. W. H Lloyd In Memory of my Loving Husband, THOMAS W. BROOM. Who died in Savannah; Ga, September, 30th 1911. Can I ever forget the moments When the chariot swung so low Can I ever forget the hour While my heart was aching so Can I estimate the value Of my dear true husband? Can I sing too loud his praises Though they ring through years and* miles? Do I love him? Yes I love him, And I feel my loss his gain He will no more toil and struggle, For in heaven there is no pain. He is sleeping, sweetly sleeping.

R. A. GRANT: IN: SOUTHERN LIFE MAGAZINE. By Christianity we mean that form of religion which is based on Jesus Christ, the Incarnate God, brought out most beautifully in the beloved Apostle's words: "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Nay, not a form only, but a system of life, feeding upon the principles given us by Jesus Christ. "For there is one God and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus." With this definition in view, what has the negro a right to expect of Christianity, first, as a man? There is a spark of individuality in every human being that if properly fanned blazes into the fire that brings out the realization that he is a man. A great awakening is on like unto the awakening of 1835 when were seen the effects of the preaching of the gospel upon the people of the colonies. A greater upheaval is being felt by the world today than when the deeds of the European world were broken up by the restlessness of the people making demands for their rights, because this mixture of dirt and water driven on by the soul, is responding to the demands of the world coming into the man. China, under Christian influence, is being cleaned up and men are being saved. Africa, under English rule, is in better shape than she would have been without it, for the spirit of Christianity now broods over her like the hen over her chicks, and facts show that she too is rising and answering the call of Christianity. The negro here has already come into the limelight of Christianity, then, why should there not be a refluent wave? Take a man and rob him of that most important factor—manhood, and his life is deprived of all that ought to make him the being intended for him to become; and because the negro has been robbed of those privileges which otherwise might be his, some have grown discouraged and despondent, but the optimistic among us expect Christianity to lift his clouded sky, broaden his narrow vision, break down the hedges growing about him. The idea of handing a lump of sugar to a horse works equally well in the case of a man; and although he does not look for sugar by, the barrel full emptied at his door, he does expect to be permitted to reach out his hand with the rest of men and grasp a lump unintimidated. Sometimes it has been said that the measure of the standard of a man, to which the world has its high ideal formed, cannot be attained by the negro, but blind indeed must be the person who cannot see the facts being brought each day, showing that the steeps are being climbed and the summits reached. For I am sure you are conversant with the facts of the "Forward Movement," the Y. M. C. A. Rally, and when you remember that these are practically new movements among us, the great measure in which he is responding to these demands and responsibilities can be better appreciated. In Chicago it was announced that two philanthropists offered $25,000, to be given, if they could among themselves raise $50,000. When the lists came in they had $66,000. In Philadelphia figures show that negroes subscribed $25,000, and in Atlanta not long ago two negro men gave $1,000 each, and one $500 for the Young Men's Christian Association work. You may say I have cited you only an instance, and if you do I shall tell you that if one negro goes wrong, you make more of that than I have made of this instance. Theories of evolution have been relied upon to prove that the negro evolved from a lower animal, but it has not been satisfactorily shown so to be. Even to this there will be no objection if, as Coburn says, man was evolved from a lower order. I heard a gentleman say that we are all made out of one mud, and another fittingly replied, yes and saved by one blood. We expect the truth of Paul's statements to be made evident in the life of the world through Christianity. (Gal. 3:28) "There is neither Jew nor Greek, neither bond nor free, there is neither made nor female. for ye are all one in Christ Jesus." (Acts 17:26) "And hath made of one blood all nations of men for to dwell on all the face of the earth." I read in The Evening Metropolis of February 28, this year, a plea of a lawyer for a white boy fourteen years old, convicted of burglary, and after he had told of the disadvantages through which the boy had come, he said: "But we ought not to condemn a boy offhand, like that, when we know that a rose can't bloom in the dark, nor a diamond sparkle until it is dug out of the ground, cut and polished, and a boy has to have a chance, too. You have heard - my story; if any man wishes to give this boy a chance, communicate with me." Thus, if this is a plea from a standpoint of Christianity, and I believe it is, we look to Christianity, knowing through what the negro has come, and that he is still in his boyhood, to give him a chance due a member of the family of Adam. What has the negro a right to ex- pect of Christianity, second, as a citizen of the Republic? The negro has proven himself loyal and true to every call and claim of this great Republic. For when the burning desire for freedom from English oppression saw the light of day, he was there. When the last possession of the U. S. was received with open hands, he was there. From the riot in Boston to the Spanish-American war, the blood of the negro has been mingled with the blood of other men, making a mighty stream, the price bringing us freedom, protection and the enlargement of our borders. As for bravery, there is no smirch upon him, for he has shown himself worthy of this trust to all rational minds. If any doubt, just one reference, and that is all I have space to make. Take a run with me to San Juan, and see him as he climbs through shot and shell to the head of the fort and places there the pride of the Republic—Old Glory. For scholarship he has snowed under all attacks made upon him by measuring up to the standards of educational heights, and in the classes of artists; specialists and inventors he is found. For the accumulation of property he has outstripped the record found upon the historical setting of the world's progress, and now owns and controls, according to Dr. Booker T. Washington—and he is no mean authority—five hundred and fifty million dollars' worth of property, two hundred thousand farms, four hundred thousand homes. He should be guaranteed protection, food, clothing, shelter, safety of life and property, prosperity, healthful sanitary systems, comfort and security. Like the men during the time of the revolutionary uprising who cried "Peace, peace, peace," but there was no peace, there are among us those who cry "Patience, patience, patience." This almost ceases to be virtue when you remember that of unrest has been born the noblest acts; greatest deeds, and highest achievements. Then, there are those who rest secure upon the adage, "Good things come to those, who wait," but they must turn and read on the other side—"All things come to those who hustle while they wait." Christianity takes care of the yellow man in China—the black man in Africa, but the negro is here and expects humane treatment. He expects Christianity to save him from being ignored, mobbed and exploited. He expects Christianity to see to it that he is treated sanely, sympathetically, and also steadfastly and intelligently. He does not expect of Christianity special friendship, but he does expect the friendship and consideration due a man on the basis of the Fatherhood of God, Saviorhood of Christ, and Brotherhood of Man. Thus we would get the equality guaranteed by the true exemplification of the principles given by Christ, for there is no color of the soul. A little more Christianity for the white man, as well for the negro, will go a long way toward solving the so-called race problem on these shores. It has been said, and it is a good point, that "the white man of the south will not say 'Mister,' yet a Christian will call him brother." This points to a settlement of the so-called race question. A weaker, a more deficient and perhaps an erring brother he may be, but the negro is still a brother. He is one of God's children. He is a member of the great human family for whom Christ died. WHEREIN WILLIE WAS FAVORED. Dorothy, Della and Daisy, three youngsters of a New Jersey town, were discoursing about the baby brothers who had taken up their residence in the three families during the past year. "My little brother Tom's got a lovely silver mug that grandfather just sent him," said Dorothy. "It's a beauty, and he had a silver knife and fork from grandma, too." "My little brother Harry's got a beeyutiful carved rattle that Uncle Dick sent him from Japan," said Della. "It's the prettiest rattle that ever was." "My little brother Willie's not so big as your brothers," said Daisy, with an air of endeavoring to conceal a feeling of triumph, "but the doctor says he's had more spasms than any other baby in this whole neighborhood, so there!"—Lippincott's. IN MEXICO. An American engineer from Mexico City was talking about President Diaz. "Diaz has a dry humor," he said. "Mexico, however, is not a dry land. They drink pulque there; a drink made from the cactus, which looks like milk and tastes like vinegar. Three glasses of pulque will make a Sunday school superintendent walk 30 miles through a blizzard to murder his wife and children. "No, Mexico is not dry. One day a Mexican statesman arrived at President Diaz's an hour late for luncheon. He apologized in a thick voice. "The fault,' he said, 'lies with my automobile.' "But, friend,' said Diaz, 'don't you know that an automobile is run by gasoline, not by alcohol!"—Cincinnati Enquirer. WELLI WELLI "Don't get disheartened—think of the porous plaster." "What of that?" "Everybody.turns his back on it, yet it hangs on, and in the end achieves success by close application." UXFURL LIBERIAN FLAG ENSIGN OF AFRICAN REPUBLIC RAISED WITH ELABORATE CER- EMONY AT LAUREL, MD.-DR. Laurel, Md.—The Liberian ensign, representing the Lone Star on the west coast of Africa, was unfurled along with the raising of the Stars and Stripes on a tall pole erected here by the colored people of Laurel and Flag day was celebrated with enthusiasm. Dr. Ernest Lyon, former American minister to Liberia, and now Liberian consul general to this country, made the principal address. Other speakers were John H. Murphy of Baltimore, Dr. Stirling Brown of Washington, Rev. M. J. Naylor of Baltimore, Dr. Ernest Williams, Rev. V. N. H. Hughes-and Rev. William Jenkins. There was a tournament. "It is fitting on this occasion of unfurling Old Glory to the breeze that the emblem of the republic of Liberia should be hoisted by its side. Not only is the flag of Liberia similar in design to the American flag, but its history is inseparably connected with all things American. The stars and stripes of Liberia is the neglected infant of the Stars and Stripes of America, but we are elated over the fact that a reconciliation has begun which it is hoped will speedily work to the complete rehabilitation of Liberia. "Liberia is not the only independent negro nationality in the world, neither is it the only English-speaking community on the west coast of Africa, but it is the only independent negro nationality of English speaking people in the world, and as such it undoubtedly occupies a. unique position in the consideration of mankind. "Although Liberia is a negro state, like Abyssinia, Haytl and the Dominican Republic, nevertheless its existence is quite distinct in its origin and history from these. Apart from the idea of an asylum for exiled Africans who desired to return to their fatherland, its mission, in the minds of the founders, was to extend Christianity and western civilization into Africa. Liberia was to be the entrance through which the benefits of modern civilization and of the Christian religion were to pass, in the English language, to the millions of heathens in the interior. Its founding marked the awakening of Anglo-Saxon conscience; it showed concretely the penitence of a repenting people for the commission of a great wrong upon a weak and helpless race. Liberia was a compromise and was intended to solve, without the shedding of blood, one of the great problems of modern times. "However, in the conflict of ideas and the clash of arms, God partially overruled the designs of his creatures, and consequently the plan of American colonization of Liberia simmered down and the country suffered. So desperate had the condition of Liberia become that the American government, reviewing the history of its founding and being reminded of the sentiment, hopes and designs of the founders, felt compelled to stretch a helping hand across the Atlantic, which will prove to be the salvation of this unique republic." Dr. Lyon has received cable instructions, confirmed later by due course of mail, appointing him agent of the Donovan trust fund. The Donovan trust fund comprises a bloock of valuable business property in Baltimore belonging formerly to the Donovan estate. Mr. Donovan was a slave holder and became rich under the system. Many years after his death his widow, dealing to do something for the negroes as a partial atonement for whatever the negro suffered under slavery, was advised by the late Gen. Ferdinand C. Latrobe to direct her efforts to the republic of Liberla, to the founding of which his father, John H. B. Latrobe had contributed considerable time and money. Accordingly, upon this advice a trust fund was formed with General Latrobe and another as trustees. PERFECTLY SIMPLE. No apologies go with this. It is the invention of former Mayor Baxter of Baltimore, and he must take all responsibility for it. "Why," asks Mr. Baxter, "is the prince of Wales like a baldheaded man, a monkey and an orphan?" Well, there isn't any answer to a question like that, of course. Whereupon Mr. Baxter answers it himself, with every indication of enjoyment. "The prince of Wales," he elucidates, "is the heir apparent. A baldheaded man has no hair apparent, the monkey has a hairy parent, and the orphan has nowhere a parent." Comment would be superfluous. Herbert Corey in Cincinnati Times-Star. HOW FAR CAN YOU SEE? What is the farthest limit to which the human vision can reach? Power in his book, "The Eye and Sight," gives the ability to see the star Alcor, situated at the tail of the Great Bear, as the test. Indeed, the Arabs call it the test star. It is most exceptional to be able to see Jupiter's satellites with the naked eye, though one or two cases are recorded, the third satellite being the most distinct. Peruvians are said to be the longest sighted race on earth. Humboldt records a case where these Indians perceived a human figure 18 miles away, being able to recognize that it was human and clad in white. This is probably the record for far sight.

SCOTT, Proprictress Matrimony _ For Sale ‘% erraee ORTH ip a matrimonial journal left on the seat, and her eye being caught by some of the advertisements, she had taken the paper home with her. * Among ‘the other attractions wa the advertisement of Madame Kane who made it a business and a delight to providé handsome wives and wealthy husbands for the small sum of $3 cach. She had brought aboul hundreds of happy marriages, and was anxious to bring about hundreds more. It was matrimony while you wait, and no mistake erer-vccurred. Miss Laurine read that advertise- ment and giggled. She read it again and chuckled. There was certainly three dollars’ worth of fun in ‘it. Dressing in one of her plainest cos- tumes, she rang madarn’s bell and was welcomed with a smile. Yes, madam brought human hearts to- gether—male and female hearts. Sometimes. those hearts loved at first sight; at other times they didn’t love for two or three days, but lore was sure to come, What sort of a husband would Miss Brown like? She had old men, middle-aged men and young men on ‘her list. She had tich men and men who were without wealth, but romantic. ‘The list be- gan with statesmen and ran down to artists starving in a garret.~ As Miss Brown was fair, she would probably prefer a dark hus- band. She had seventy dark ones on her list, and could warrant each and every one sound, kind and gen- tle. You pay $3, register your name, and the things as good as done. A meeting is arranged, you see each other, Cupid fires his arrows, and there is a marriage and a bridal | tour! : “{—TI think T prefer a starving artist,” said Miss Laurine, who had of course given a false name. “I have always heard that starving art- ists cling to the romance of marriage longer than any other class.” | “They' surely do,” said Madam Kane. “Whether it is because they ro around with empty stomachs, or ‘from their artistic natures, I can’t say, but they continue:to be roman- tic for years and years. I have five starving artists on my list, and all ‘are dark, We shall have no trouble fat all. Long hair, dreamy eyes, érooping mustache and ragged jack- et—I know just what you want. Call in one week.” : Miss Laurine didn’t mean to call. She had been actuated by a-spirit of mischief and curiosity. She didn’t like Madam Kane, and she didn’t believe in Jove and matrimony being reduced to business. The five starv- ing artists must continue to starve. If she could get their addresses she would send them a dollar apiece, but the matter must end there. And yet, when the week was up she rang madam’s doorbell for the second time. She had said she wouldn’t, but madam had said to herself that she would. Curiosity would fetch her. “I am so glad “you have come, Miss Brown.’ I have an artist bere waiting. He is the nicest one oue my list. Te has been living in a garret and starving for the last three years, and oh, he is so very, very romantic!” . “But I—I don’t want to mect him!” faltered the girl “I'll just look at his photo and then take three or four days to make up my mind.” “But that is unusual, my.dear., I have no photo of him, and you know that delays are dangerous. If you wait three or four days he may be picked up by some one else. Only five starving artists in the city, and there are hundreds and hundreds of girls who want to get married; seize the golden opportunity now.” “No, I think P'll wait.” At that moment three blocks away azine to send a five-dollar bill for his last poem. 2 - ~ As he reached the house of Mad- ani Kane he did nof rush up the steps. On the contrary he paused to wonder whether he shouldn’t reg- ister as Buffalo Bill or Raflles in- stead of a poet. Both were roman- tic and catehy. He had visited mo- tion picture shows where both char- acters were portrayed, and “he had noticed that every young woman clapped her hands and rolled up fiér eyes. ° : Madam Kane begeed Miss Brown to be introduced to the starving art- ist in her presence. The rent on his garret was due, and the free lunch places were freezing him out, and he wanted to know about his future, By this time Miss Brown had be- come alarmed and wanted to get out of the house. She no longer saw things in the light of romance. She was moving toward the door when the starving artist bounced into the room and fell at her feet and clasped her hands and rolled his eyes and exclaimed: 7 “Tt is my angel! She has come at last! In my dreains I have seen her a hundred times!” : “I won't stay—I won’t stay!” eried the girl as she drew her skirt from his grasp. “My angel!” wailed the man on his knees. “In my dreams I have painted your portrait! I have knelt to you as now! I have taken your hand and iold you of my love! Do not be cruel to me now!” The man did it well. He had once héld a theatrical engagement for two weeks, and had learned where to bring in the pathos and the ges- tures. And, besides, he was a friend UR - OG a se & | |, | vd Apt... ee ae OG, a bl dS Piha arc oe y Vaiapysy ® My Annell of Madam Kane’s and receiving « commission on his acting.

He had scarce ly scrambled to his fect and assisted her to rise when the starving artis! was upon them. He knelt again to pour out another impassioned ap- peal. ‘Mr. Bennett was a young man o! action. He proved it on this occa. sion. He raised the artist and kicked him, and then took Miss Brown on his arm and walked across to the park and seated her on a bench and soothingly told her not to weep. “T ste no occasion for tears!” she promptly replied, Hie had thought she was sobbing, out as she looked up he found her smiling, Mr. Bennett was a well-bred young man, Ie sat and looked at the toes of his shoes and never asked a question, Miss Brown also Jooked at the toes of her shoes and preserved silence.

FLYING HIGHER THAN BIRDS Amazing Altitude That Was Reached In an Aeroplane by the French- man, Garros. * The Frenchman, Garros, estab- fished’ a truly amazing re¢ord for al- titude in an aeroplane when he as- cended 13,943 feet. Think of a | inan’s “winging his way,” as it were, to a height considerably over tyo ‘miles above the ‘solid earth. The skylark is popularly esteemed the highest flyer of the common birds, yet he mounts no more than a mile, whence he pours forth his liquid notes to charm the ear of an ordi- nary mortal and awaken responsive song in a Shelley. Pike’s Peak is but 14,147 feet above sea level and scarcely more than 8,000 fect above the plateau where Colorado Springa rests in its beauty and wealth among the lesser ranges of the Rocky moun- tains, Garros, by ascending to an al- titude almost equal to that at which yenturesome visitors find the Ma- sonic monument on the top of Pike’s Peak, surpassed Lincoln Beachey’s record at Chicago by 2,365 feet, a space that itself would have filled the whole world with wonder -less than three years ago—Philadelphie Press. - > ‘ Don’t Buy'a New One Save the old ones and send to us.
