The Savannah Tribune FOLKS GO PICNICKING" URBAN LEAGUE GIVES AN ENJOYABLE OUTING Over Forty-seven Take in the Trip to Cattle Park Last Week —Many Donations Made— Other Activities of the League. With the possible exception of Christmas donations last year to the poor of the city by the local branch of the Urban League the most praiseworthy accomplishment of the league was the picnic given for the poor old folks of the city at Cattle Park on Wednesday of last week. The affair has been very generally commented upon and the adult committee of the league, known as the Willing and Sunshine Workers, and whose chairman is Mrs. Rachael Moore, received many congratulations from those who saw the picnickews going through the city. The money to defray the expenses of the outing was raised by the committee from subscriptions given by friends. There were in all about forty-seven old folks who took in the outing and the happiness which escaped through their worn and wrinkled countenances was evidence of the joyous times they experienced during the day. Some of the experiences of the day were truly novel to most of those who were able to take the outing in, especially is this true of those who were conveyed in the auto truck. As is the case with many elderly persons, almost without exception those who rode in the motor truck had a preconceived idea of danger arising from riding in an automobile of any sort and it was not without much coaxing that most of them were persuaded to take a chance in getting in aboard the snorting cars, the drivers and by-standers enjoying the many quaint remarks made by the old folks as they watched the loud exhausting machines—but no harm befell the picnickers and now they are automobile enthusiasts. The picnickers left from the two sections of the city, those on the west side starting from the First Bryan Baptist Church and picking up others at the Union Station and The Tribune building, the Eastside crowd joining the Westsiders at the picnic ground. The scene at the grounds was a most impressive and enjoyable one, the old folks conducting themselves as if they were children. It was the first outing for many of them in the past twenty-five years, and the affair reminded one of the good old time camp meetings of years ago. After enjoying a few hours consumed in reminiscences of the past, dinner was had and the old folks who had breathed the pure salt air for the first time in a quarter of a century ate with an appetite which would have done justice to a Sunday school crowd, Rev. W. L. Cash of the Congregational church, and Mr. T. F. Freeman were present during the entire day and assisted in entertaining the picnickers. After dinner a good old time spiritual meeting was held on the pavillion over the river and the old folks were addressed by Rev. J. L. Taylor of the Episcopal church, Rev. Dan, Wright of the First Bryan Baptist church, Rev. Cash and Rev. Green. The old folks seemed to take in with unusual interest the remarks that were made and many a hearty "amen" was given the speakers. But to the younger persons who were at the services the most impressive thing was the jubilee singing and playing of the old folks. The very trees themselves resounded with praise as the old time pieces were sung by the old folks and the younger folks looked on as if in amazement as the old folks gave vent to their long pent up feelings. One old lady, especially, whose age she did not exactly know but which would be in the neighborhood of a hundred and twenty-five years, if the historical events she has witnessed were not woefully twisted, was a live wire in the. meeting and her prayer was truly of the sort that .Carnegie . Library . Dedicatino .Postponed The dedicatory exercises of the Colored Carnegie Library which were to take place this coming Wednesday afternoon have been indefinitely postponed on account of an unavoidable delay in the work on the building. Notice of the date of the dedication will be given later in The Tribune. Savannah Man Honored Mr. Elijah Alex. Hamilton, formerly of this city, now residing in Philadelphia, Penn., is spending his vacation attending the Young People's Congress at Atlanta, Ga., July 8th to 12th as a delegate from mother Bethel A. M. E. Church, of which he was elected treasurer last April, and is serving his second term as president of the Ushers Brotherhood and Ladies Auxiliaries of Philadelphia, an interdenominational organization. They recently presented to him a gold medal for faithful service. Mr. Hamilton is employed at the Navy Y. M. C. A. building, League Island. Carpenters Union to Worship at St. Stephen's. The local members of the United Brotherhood of Carpenters and Joiners will attend services in a body at St. Stephen's Episcopal Church tomorrow night to celebrate their fifteenth anniversary. The sermon to the Union will be preached by the rector, Rev. J. L. Taylor Rev. Nesbitt to Address B. Y. P. U. Rev. Nesbitt of the Hull Memorial Church, will address the B. Y. P. U. of the First A. B. Church, West Broad and Bolton streets, at 6:30 q'clock tomorrow afternoon. Rev. Nesbitt is a forceful speaker and good attendance is expected at the meeting. Imperial Branch The members of the Ladies Branch of the Imperial Aid and Social Club have selected Mrs. Sarah Maxwell to act as head of the committee on health during the absence of Mrs. F. Proctor who is off on a vacation. Mrs. Maxwell is well fitted for the position and the office will be well taken care of by her. Mr. George Anderson of Philadelphia, is in the city visiting his brother, Mr. Joseph Anderson. so generally called "soulstirring." It caused her companions to ejaculate many a strong amen and made many of them shout as if they were twenty-five years younger. The meeting lasted allittle over an hour and a half and those in charge of the picnic, wishing to avoid nightfall, had a time to peruse the picnickers that it was time to return to the city. On the road home the singing continued until a mile from town the songs gradually died out, and the old folks were seen to drop off in sleep, one by one. The picnic was given on the grounds of Mr. G. J. Moore, Cattle Park, in former years a popular place for picnics. The committee investigated 85 homes and from them secured 47 persons who took the outing in. Many more might have gone, but for lack of clothing and ill health, the members of the committee are, Mrs. Sarah Robinson; Mrs. Henrietta Dear, Mrs. Lucy Newton, Mrs. Josephine Singleton, Mrs. Barbara Williams, Mrs. Sarah Wright, Mrs. Walker, Mrs. White and Mrs. Rachel Moore. The League has been making much progress in the city accomplishing much good both among the young and old. The boys club has just closed the first regulary organized baseball league among Negro boys of the city and the committee on girls clubs is now conducting three circles in as many portions of the city, attended by an aggregate of ninety girls. The committee on Industrial farm has also done much effective work and is hoping, in the future to have the youths who are present there instructed in elementary branches of English. The president of the league was at the picnic, as was a'so our Negro photographer, Mr. J. W.

Johnson, 622 West 41st street, on Wednesday evening July 1st. Midst the beautiful strains of Mendelshon wedding march, rendered by Mr. James Durden and Mr. Robert Green of the Metronome Orchestra, the ceremony was performed by Rev. Singleton in the beautifully decorated home. The bride entered the room assisted by her uncle, Mr. Daniel Alexander, where they met the groomman and his brother, Mr. Austin Walden of Macon, Ga., who was his best man. The bride was handsomely arrayed in a gown of white crepe de chine embroidered and trimmed with pearls and made entrained, and wore a very becoming bonnet trimmed with orange blossoms with a beautiful cornet shaped spangle with the bridal veil touching the train and carried a showered bouquet of bridal roses and lilies of the valley. Miss Marietta Jordon of Fort Valley, the bride's cousin, was the bridesmaid. She was beautifully gowned in a blue crepe de chine trimmed in shadow lace and pearls and carried a bouquet of pink roses. Little Miss Vera Louise Jordon of Fort Valley, Ga., was the flower girl. She was very becoming dressed in a blue silk under shadow lace. She carried a beautiful basket of ferns and carnations. Little Thelma Jordan neatly dressed entered bearing the handsome ring on a pillow of white satin. The bride's mother was very beautifully gowned, decorated with a beautiful bouquet of carnations and ferns. Immediately after the ceremony light refreshments were served and Mr. and Mrs. Walden entrained for Fort Valley, Ga., their future home. The bride wore a very becoming traveling suit with hat to match. The bride being a teacher at Maple street school until the closing of the term was greatly remembered by the principal and teachers, as well as by a host of friends by their numerous and handsome presents. On Thursday afternoon July 2nd, Mr. and Mrs. Walden were tendered a reception at Fort Valley, Ga., by Mr. H. J. Jordon, uncle of Mrs. Walden, Beth-Eden Church Services were well attended Sunday, an dthis was a very busy day for the Rev. Clarke, the pastor. He preached three sermons during the day, having had a funeral immediately after the morning service, he preached from I Thess, 2:18, "Wherefore we would have come unto you, even I. Paul, once and again; but Satan hindered us." At the communion service at night his text was taken from Luke 22:19; the sermon was, indeed a powerful one, in it, Rev. Clarke waxed eloquent. This service was very impressive. Come and we let you out early. You will find plenty of fans and ice water. There was an interesting meeting of the B. Y. P. U. Sunday; several of the deacons and members gave interesting talks on the lesson. Another good meeting is promised for to-morrow. Services to-morrow as follows: preaching 11 a. m.

Many Beaufortites Visit The City OVER HOME FOLKS ENJOY PLEASANT STAY Some of Beaufort's Leading Citizens, Including Tribune Representative, Among Excursionists—Enjoyed the Sights of the City. On the occasion of the annual fourth of July excursion to this city from Beaufort, many visitors were in the city Monday of this week. Because of the fourth coming on Saturday, the day was celebrated by the Overhomers on on Monday. The excursionists left Beaufort Sunday night at midnight and arrived in the city about six o'clock next morning. Evidence of the presence of strangers in the city could be seen on every side and the visitors seemed to have enjoyed the day immensely. Many of the younger members of the excursionists spent the day at the amusement parks and automobile rides on the beautiful roads of the county, others visited friends while most of the older women took their day out in shopping. The crowd included some of the leading Negro citizens of Beaufort, among them Mr. J. S. Blocker, The Tribune correspondent. Mr. Blocker reported that the Negroes are getting along nicely there and making much progress. Many new homes are being built by them and they are gradually opening up new business enterprises. As is usually the case, several of the excursionists who miscalculated upon the leaving time of the boat or were having such a grand time that they were not over anxious to return home, reached the docks just in time to see the Islander winding her way down the first turn of the river on her return trip. Several of the visitors, of course, paid their yearly visit to The Tribune office, among them being Messrs. Blocker, Sanders, Scott, Moody Zealy and Patterson. Oriole Glee. Club at Imperial Celebration The well known Oriole Glee Club of Charleston, S. C., will be present at the tenth anniversary of the Imperial Aid and Social Club which will be held on Wednesday evening July 29th. A special program is being arranged for the occasion, which will appear in The Tribune later. The Oriole Glee Club is one of the leading musical societies of the City by the Sea and their appearance here will be greeted no doubt by a large crowd. The Imperial Club is one of best known and strongest societies in the city, having elegant quarters in the double two-story house on the southeast corner of Oglethorpe avenue and East Boundary street.

FINE SUCCESS IS SCORED BY AMERICUS COLORED MAN From .Cotton .Maker To Bank President. Among the delegates attending the recent annual session of the Negro Masonic Grand Lodge in Americus, and one of its most important officers was Lucius E. Williams, formerly of Americus but now one of the wealthiest of Savannah's colored citizens. He is the son of Mary Williams, one of Americus' worthiest representatives of the ante-bellum race, and who lives on Hinkle street here, Lucius Williams began his career here as a cotton marker in Capt. C. W. Felder's warehouse at $2,00 per week. From this menial work he entered the railway mail service, where he remained several years and saved his money, which he invested in Savannah realty. In 1900 he established the Wage Earners Loan and Investment Co., the success of which has been phenomenal. From a capital of $1,144 in 1902, the company now owns a handsome four-story banking building just completed, and its assets on June 5, this year amounted to $240,513. The capital stock paid in, is $41,353, reserve and undivided profits $28,800, and deposits of $137,870. The company has loans outstanding of nearly $180,000. All this, and more, was accomplished by an Americus Negro boy who, without education and few opportunities, has made a success that his friends here white and colored are proud of—Americus Times—Recorder.

The State Grand Lodge, Knights of Pythias, will convene Tuesday, in the twenty-fourth annual session at Valdosta in what is expected to be one of the largest gatherings in the history of the body.

How well he performed his duties and treated his force were demonstrated by expressions made and the presenting of a silver service. Up to this date President Wilson has failed to name his successor. His action in demanding the resignation of Mr. Johnson before appointing his successor can not be approved by those conversant with the political game. The plan is to later appoint a colored man who the senate will hold up, in the meantime the office will be administered by a white man, thus carrying out the Hoke Smith-Vardaman idea. The recently inaugurated campaign against street and corner loafing by the police department of our city, can but meet, the approval of all citizens who have the welfare of the city at heart. For some time, we have noticed the apparently increasing number of men and boys who infest certain of our streets and corners, and who seemingly have not the slightest desire to engage themselves in any sort of occupation that smacks of work. On some of our most prominent streets and corners, these sons of rest occupy so much space that it is sometimes with difficulty that one is able to go about his way with out brushing into some of them. Embarrassing as this is to male pedestrians, who must feel their way, as it were through this mass of idle humanity, unusually so it to females who must encounter not only the stare, but at times the jibes that naturally come from these human rodents. According to the police, the time has come when street loafing must be stopped. So far as the street loafer is concerned, regardless to what his color may be, and there are many of both races, other climes must be sought by him. This is the recent decree of the police department. And it is on the right line in so decreeing. It is a conservative estimate to state that ninety percent of the criminality from which a community suffers, is born in the minds of the denizens who block our streets and corners and infest the dives and dens while they are so engaged. The street loafer is a dangerous individual. The criminal tendency finds easy and fertile soil within him. He should not be allowed to go about his way with impunity or run amuck among us. Let come what it may, be he white or black, the loafer should be corralled. The Tribune welcomes most heartily this present campaign against the street loafers. It sincerely wishes that before the campaign ends, loafers, both white and black, will be made either to seek and secure work, or to enter the services of city and county without pay. If there be any one effort put forth by the members of the Urban League which justified the existence of their organization, it is the one put forth on last week by the Committee on Women's Club, which resulted in an outing given for some fifty or sixty of our oldest and most helpless inhabitants. To have witnessed the joy and happiness evinced by the old folks as they were helped in the tally ho and started on their trip to Cattle Park, would have caused the most selfish or least inclined towards charitable endeavor among us to smile at least approbation on this effort of the consecrated men and women who planned the outing for the old people and made it such an unusual pleasure for them. Such efforts on the part of the members of the Urban League are in keeping with the purpose and spirit of their organization. Begun only a few months ago and organized on a missionary basis, the League has on more than one occasion brought sunshine and happiness in places where there was a dearth of them. The poor and unfortunate of the city have in the Urban League a staunch and helpful friend. Its members void of all desire of ostentation or commendation are going about their work in a quiet but effective way. Judging by the work already done by the League and the continued manifestation of interest shown by its members, the Urban League seems to have outlived the experimental stage and is now a fixity among us. The Tribune feels that there is no more worthy or deserving agency of charity now at work among our people than the Urban League. The Tribune hopes to see the day when the League shall have so broadened itself until every phase of Negro life in the community will feel the influence of its touch. May this day be not far distant. In Memory of the Late Dr. I. E. Nash. When the news of the departure of Dr. I. E. Nash reached the anxious ears of the people of Baunswick we stood bewildered and awe-struck. For a moment we were sorely troubled; but when we remember that the mighty Ruler of earth and heaven does all things for the best, we know that it was for no evil purpose whatever that he was snatched srom us, but that it was for the relief of his suffering that his good work was postponed and God in His wise judgment saw fit to have him make a change for the better. As a physician he was a mighty bulwark in his profession; as a gentleman he was honest and honorable, polite and obliging to all classes; as a christian his life was clean and spotless and his daily walk in the community stands for itself, it was above reproach and therefore worthy of emulation. His short illness and sudden death was like the approach of a terrible storm whose thunders had long muttering in the distance. At last it bursted in fury carrying death and desolation in its path. But now the worst has past, and the beautiful sun is again casting her benignant rays over her mourners, thus we who were so sogely vexed and troubled have soothed our murmering spirits with a few lines of Bryant's Thanatopsis which reads: Yet not to that eternal resting place did he retire alone, nor couldst thou wish for him a couch more magnificent. He is resting with patriarchs of the infant world—with kings, the powerful of the earth—the wise, the good, fair fortune and hoary seer of ages host all in one mighty sepulchre. The hills rock-ribbed and ancient as the sun—the vales stretching in intensive quietness between; the venerable woods—rivers move in majesty and the complaining brooks that make the meadows green; and poured around all Old Ocean's gray and melancholy waist are but the solemn decoratoris all of the great tomb of man. The golden sun, the planets, all the infinite hosts of heaven are shining on the sad abode of death through the still lapse of ages. All that tread the globe are but a handful to the tribes that slumber in its bosom. Take the wings of the morning, pierce the Barcan wilderness or lose thyself in the continuous woods where rolls the Oregon and here no sound save his own dashings—yet the dead are there. * * * * All that breathe will share his destiny. * * * * As the long train of ages glides away the sons of men, the youth in life's fresh spring, and he who goes in the full strength of years, matron and maid, the speechless babe, and the gray headed man—shall one by one be gathered to thy end. Then let us so live that when thy summons come to join the innumerable caravan; which moves to that mysterious realm, where each shall take his chamber in the silent halls of death. Thou go not like the quarry-slave at niget, scurged to his dungeon, but sustained and coothed by an unfaltering trust, approach thy grave like one who wraps the drapery of his couch about him, and lies down to pleasant dreams." A friend, July 7, 1914. S. W. M. Among the Masons. Every representative to the Grand Lodge is giving glowing repts to their respective lodges of the notable meeting of the Grand lodge. St. John's Day was more generally observed than ever. The Masons of Savannah had a fairly attended gathering when the program as published was carried out. The committee had it well arranged and desire to thank The members of Morgan Lodge No. 359, Morgan, Ga., met at the lodge room and proceeded to the church where the celebration was held. The sermon was preached by Rev. S. S. Griffin. The program was well carried out. The principles of Masonry cannot fail to make our lives purer and better if we but live up to them. There is a wonderful attractiveness about Masonry. Its ceremonies are beautiful and inspiring and its teachings are founded upon the Holy Bible. We are not sent into this world to do anything into which we cannot put our hearts. We have certain work to do for our bread and that is to be done strenuously; other work to do for our delight, and this is to be done heartily; neither is it to be done by halves or shifts, but with a will; and what is not worth this effort is not to be done at all.—John Ruskin. Please allow space in your valuable paper to say a few words about the Master Masons who celebrated St. John's Day here Sunday, June 29th at Brown's chapel A. M. E. Church. The Masons here are a band of loyal men and true to their order. An excellent program was rendered to the delight of many. The sermon was delivered by Rev. A. A. Duncan of Blakely, Ga., and it is needless to say that he proved himself equal to the occasion and his deep and well arranged sermon which was enjoyed will always be remembered as a beneficial one to the Masons.—Fort Gains, Ga. Atlanta, Ga., July 1914. More than 800 Masons assembled at the Odd Fellows Auditorium on Auburn avenue Sunday afternoon June 28 and celebrated St. John's day in great style. The sermon by Dr. C. M. Manning was received with great spiritual reverence by all present. The brothers were greatly inspired at the report of the condition of the Grand Jurisdiction as outlined during the sermon. Grand Master H. R. Butler presided and was assisted by Brothers W. Ed. Griffin and Grand Senior Warden J. W. Dobbs. The brothers have decided to make this year a record breaking year for the ancient fraternity as far as they are able and have also resolved to aid the Grand Master to hold Georgia to the front and in the lead of all other jurisdictions. Deputy Grand Master J. H. Walker of Macon was in the city Monday night; with the assistance of Illustrious H. H. Butler 33rd, C. A. Faison 32nd and a host of other 32nd degree Masons, conducted a large and interesting class across the hot sands of desert to the oasis where each son was taught fruitful lessons. Camel's milk was plentiful. Rev. C. M. Manning, Illustrious High Priest was in evidence and performed his duties well. Illustrious R. Nelson of Acworth was present and enjoyed the journey through the desert. There is quite a deal of sickness among the Craft in our city. We are sorry to hear of the death of Bro. Andrew Pope who departed this life Saturday morning 3 a. m. and was buried Tuesday 3 p. m. He was a member of Crystal Lodge No. 112 this city. The Grand Chapter Order of the Eastern Star will meet in Americus Tuesday August 4th at 9 a. m. The opening exercise will be held the Monday night the 3rd at Masonic auditorium.

NEGRO GRADUATES NORTHERN COLLEGES Georgia Boy Among the Number The Harvard class day, when the guaiety of commencement week reaches its height, started with lowering skies and a smart shower in the early forenoon, but with a promise of fair, cool weather for the most important events of the day. At 11 the procession was formed again in the yard, this time with fuller ranks, for practically the whole class was in line, with nearly 400 men. The ceremonies in Sanders consisted of the delivery of the class oration by Alexander Louis Jackson of Englewood, N. J., the colored boy who is known in college for his hurdling on the track team and for his public speaking. The poem was read by its author, Charles P. Curtis, Jr., of Boston. At the conclusion of these two parts the class ode, in twostanzas, written by Pitman B. Potter, was sung to the tune of "Fair Harvard," the singing being led by chorister A. F. Pickernell. "Success As an End in Life" was the subject of the oration delivered by A. L. Jackson. It was well arranged and the thoughts were clear and logical. Mr. Jackson showed that he is keeping abreast of the times, and he urges his classmates to avoid the assumption that money is everything in the world, and that it will purchase anything. Nine hundred and sixty-nine men were given degrees in Sanders Theater Thursday by President Lowell in addition to the honorary degree awards. The regular degrees considerably exceeded those of a year ago. The men receiving the degree of bachelor of arts—455—were, as usual more numerous than the other recipients. In the list, however, were 172 taking the degree of bachelor of laws, sixty-three the degree of doctor of medicine, sixty the degree of doctor of philosophy and 229 miscellaneous. HARVARD GRADUATES OF COLOR The colored students graduating were Alexander L. Jackson, bachelor of arts; Lucious L. Jordan, bachelor of arts with degree Cum Laude in special subject of economics; James A. Wright, bachelor of sacred theology PHI BETA KAPPA The Phi Beta Kappa Society of high scholarship, had its meetings on Monday. Ex.President Taft was the orator and Bliss Carman the poet. The only colored member of present was Editor W. Monroe Trotter, the first colored, member of the Harvard chapter of the class of 1865. DRUE KING GRADUATES FROM TUFTS MEDICAL.

There was one colored girl in the graduating class of the Massachusetts state normal school at Salem, Mass.—Miss Helen Henderson of 52 Windsor street, Boston. Rev. James A. Wright, vice president of the Harvard-Andover Divinity Club, graduated from the divinity school. On Monday, June 15, he received the degree of bachelor of sacred theology from Andover Theological Seminary, the first colored man to receive this degree since 1907, and the fifth to receive the degree in the 106 years of the institution. On Thursday he received the degree of bachelor of sacred theology from Harvard University. Rev. Wright is an A. B. of Howard University, 1911, and has been the successful pastor of the Congregational Church at Haverhill, Mass., for a year or two. L. L. Jordan was born March 4, 1887, at Montgomery, Ala. He graduated from the Columbus public school June, 1905; entered the second year class of the preparatory school at Atlanta University 1905, from which he entered the freshman class of the said University 1907. He received his A.B. with high honor at Atlanta University in June 1911, and taught Latin and Greek at Miles Memorial College in 1911-12. He entered the junior class at Harvard in September, 1912, and was graduated from Harvard on Thursday with the degree A. B. and Cum Laude in economics. As to his future plans, he expects to teach in the South. The position has not been decided upon. Drue King was born in Augusta, Ga., March 16, 1888, of one of the oldest and most prominent families, son of Albert King, well known and successful hotel drummer of Augusta. He attended Mauge Street grammar school, was graduated in 1903, came north, attended Boston English high school and graduated in 1907 with honors. Took post graduate course in 1907-08; then entered Tufts College, taking one-year pre-medical course as preliminary to beginning medical work; then began regular work. He was well liked at Tufts and made many friends. He graduated Jure 17th, 1914 and has had the following hospital experience: Boston City Hospital, Massachusetts General Hospital, Massachusetts Charitable Eye and Ear infirmary, Carney Hospital, Boston dispensary, the home for Consumptives. As to future work he will take the Maine and Massachusetts boards next month; then go home for the summer and begin active work in the fall. He will devote special attention to the eye, ear, nose and confine his work wholly to those organs. He is undecided as to just where he will locate. He is a firm believer in equal rights, and has always tried to live up to it at Tufts and whenever a banquet, dance or lecture was given by the school he never failed to attend. There are sixty-two graduates in his class, he being the only, colored.—Boston Globe. Seaboard Air Line Railway Seaboard Air Line Railway Rate $4,95 round trip.

It is very important that you have your feet treated if you are suffering with the above complaint.

The skin is one of the three principal channels by which the body casts off impurities. It is estimated that in every square inch of the souls there are 2,685 sweat glands and these serve to aid Nature in throwing out of the system the filth, the carbonic acid and disease, which have found their way into the blood and lymph channel.

C. Lindsay In our letter of last week, we promised to tell you of some things for which the Negro Business League stands. We may find it necessary just here, to tell you first about some of the things for which it does not stand. It does not stand for the self appointed leadership of that would-be Negro leader, who, in order, as he proposes, to keep into the good graces of the other fellow, will walk or send his children two blocks out of the way to buy a pound of bacon or a bar of soap from the Greek on the corner, when there is a struggling Negro shop-keeper much nearer and who will sell him these small items just as cheap and who in the meantime will be assisting in the good work of keeping open the doors of a small struggling Negro business venture. In a way we have hinted at the kind of things, and the hook-worm methods of killing Negro business by that element of would-be self-appointed Negro leaders, who, while on dress parade with mouth wide open and with clinched-list and with great and deep emphasis say: "Let us stand together and build our business up." We will not pass judgment upon their sincerity, we leave that to you. The thoughtful element of our people in Savannah, are proud of the business ventures of our men. Here in this city, we have two splendid hospitals, well equipped, owned, operated and controlled entirely by our own men. We refer to Charity hospital at the corner of 36th and Florence streets. The moving spirit and dean of this splendid institution which is doing so much toward the alleviation of the pains and sufferings of our needy people, is that modest and una-suming practitioner, Dr. W. C. Blackman. The other, The East Side Sanitium, is located on East Gwinnett street, just east of the subway: this is entirely a new venture, which is modern in every respect, and is the result, pure and simple, of the brain and money of Dr. G. W. Smith and associates. A splendid woman came into the office of a Negro business man a few days ago, (who furnishes profitable employment to twenty-one members of the race,) seeking employment for her excellent daughter who graduated from the normal department of a certain school a few weeks since. The gentleman was very anxious to give this accomplished young woman some thing to do, but was filled out for the time, but on speaking to the lady about giving to the business represented by himself some of her patronage, she frankly told him that she did not care to bother with Negro things as they could not stand. Without further comment I drop the subject here. An eminent jurist, who, by the way, is an officer of one of the largest and most influential banks in this city, or in the South as to that matter, in addressing a refined cultured audience of our people under the auspices of the Negro Business League said: "I have taken the time and pains to investigate today, the financial standing of your people in one bank alone, and found that twenty-two hundred of your people were depositors in the savings department in sums ranging from small amounts each to amounts up into the thousands." Again, I am forced to ask you, can you not see the solution of our problem? The people must be brought together through the medium of our business league, where confidence will be inspired, and where the masses of our people will be taught by the promoters of Negro businesses, that we are not trying to fleece them, but trying to put our mites together in a cooperative way, and thereby make places for our boys and girls who are coming from the various schools year after year. I was very much amused some days ago, when I approached a cert in-business (?) man upon the subject of taking part and assisting in the work of the Negro Business League, when he asked me how much benefits did it pay a week. I assured him that there were no benefits connected with it, but that it was for the Negro just what the Chamber of Commerce of the Board of Trade is to the whits. It meant the creating of more businesses and the taking of better care of those that we have and the co-operation of every one in advertising and boosting every thing which the Negro had for the benefit of the race. Said he: "I) care to 'jine' today." e one asked me some days no is a busine n and and Steamers Pilot Boy and Clivedon has been chartered for the occasion. Come Early and Avoid the Rush. while I was thinking for a moment for an answer, a good friend of mine happened to be standing near by, who came to my rescue with this answer: "The man," said he, "who can keep his grocery bill paid up now as high as the cost of living is, put him down as a good business man." Therefore, all well wishers of the race, who are promoters, or even engaged in some honest, legitimate business, are eligible to membership; $1.00 joining fee, 25 cents per month. GOLDEN CIRCLE NEWS.

First Bryan Baptist Church On Sunday morning Rev. Wright conducted the services at Nicolsonboro Baptist church, of which he is pastor. Quite a number of friends accompanied him. They returned to the city in the afternoon, having spent a pleasant and profitable day. At night, Rev. Wright read for the lesson Matt. 25: 1-13. The text was from Matt. 25: 13, subject, "Let us go out to meet him." It was a brilliant sermon, describing very carefully the parable of the "Ten Virgins." Rev. Wright led the hymn "Amazing sight." Quite a number bowed for prayey which was offered. The Sunday school is apparently getting on new life; the B. Y. P. U. is also steadily growing numerically and in interest to all. You are heartily welcome at any of these services. The Sunday school picnic on Tuesday was a success numerically and socially.
