The Savannah Tribune. URBAN LEAGUE PUBLIC MEETING TO- MORROW AFTERNOON AT 4 O'CLOCK RABBI SOLOMON OF MICKVE ISRAEL SYNAGOGUE TO DELIVER PRINCIPAL ADDRESS VOLUME XXXI At The Pekin Theater Prof. J. G. Lemon will Tell of the Accomplishments of the League —Choral Society of Urban League's Boys' Club will Make Initial Appearance—J. C. Lindsay will Act as Master of Ceremonies. On tomorrow, Sunday, afternoon at 4 o'clock a public meeting for "sweet charity" will be held at the Pekin theatre under the auspices of the local branch of the National League on Urban Conditions Among Negroes. The meeting which is a sort of booster for this league which has accomplished so much for the Negroes of Savannah, will, no doubt, be attended by a large and enthusiastic crowd. The principal address of the afternoon will be delivered by Rabbi Geo. Solomon of Mickve Israel Sysagogue. Rabbi Solomon is one of the most interesting and fluent speakers in this city and his discussions are always listened to with much delight. Prof. J. Garfield Lemon, of the Ga. State College and one of the best informed members of the race in this city on social service work, will tell of the accomplishments of the league since its organization three years ago. One of the main features of the meeting will be the music in which the choral society of the boys' club of the league will make its initial appearance. Another delightful musical number will be the double quartette, which will be rendered by pupils of the Cuyler street school, and also the female quartette. The master of ceremonies will be J. C. Lindsay, a member of the executive committee of the league. A special effort will be made at the meeting, to which, of course, there will be no admission fee, to secure subscriptions to the league's Christmas and Charity fund. This fund has already passed the hundred dollar mark and it it hoped that those at the meeting who have not already subscribed to it will do so. The programme to be rendered is as follows: Chorus, "Throw out the Life Line", Boys' Club Urban League. Invocation, Rev. N.-M. Clarke, D. D. Quartette, "Rise, Shine for the Light has come," Mesdames A. O. Orner, Willie Hooker, Misses S. O. Lee and Bertha Lee. Address, "The Urban, League its Accomplishments and Aim, Prof. J. G. Lemon.

W. L. Cash. URBAN LEAGUE DISTRICT LEADERS AT WORK In order to more efficiently carry out the work of the Urban League in securing the names and addresses of the more worthy people who are to be the recipients of Christmas donations, the city has been divided into districts and leaders for each district selected. These leaders held an enthusiastic meeting at the league's headquarters last week and organized for the work. These leaders are Miss Ada L. Scott, Miss Bessie E. Foster, Mrs. Frances A. Morchison, Mrs. Josephine Singleton, Mrs. R. A. G. Taylor, Miss C. Emma Lewis, Mrs. Henrietta Deas, Mrs. Geo. S. Williams, Mrs. M. E. Tolbert, Mrs. M. E. Sherman, Mrs. Laura Fields, Mrs. A. E. Orner, Mrs. L. A. Newton. Each of the ladies will have assistants. A meeting of these adles and their assistants will be held Wednesday afternoon December 15, at 5:30 o'clock at the headquarters, at which time progress in the work will be reported as well as the amount collected on the Christmas and Charity fund. The School Question Attracting Much Attention. Washington, D. C., Dec. G-The expected has happened. As predicted in these columns months ago, the district commissioners have recommended, in their very comprehensive report to Congress, radical changes in the public school system for this community. There is a general belief that the changes will be made substantially as advocated by the city's administrators, for the reason that the people are sick and tired of the perpetual racket that has been occasioned by the clashes in the schools of both races, and especially is the dintasteful to the colored people, for it appears that it is the colored schools that the storm center is usually located. It may be that we think the latter true, because we are nearer to the Negro center of confusion than to that of the whites—and it may be that they carry on their domestic battles with less fuss and feathers than is characteristic of us. In any event, the people want peace, and it must be had, even if the price is found to be a little steep. Little can be lost in the long run, for almost any kind of change is considered better than the chaos that has become a strench in the nostrils of the friends of civil righteousness and educational progress. Fair play and a restoration of the merit system is wanted, and it has been acknowledged that only thru a change of system and a change of administrators could this be secured. If the commissioners have their way, the District has a chance to get what it has long wanted. The report of the commissioners, among other things, urges that the present board of education of nine be dissolved and that a new board of five members be named by the commissioners, with such powers as the commissioners may prescribe. All appointments, promotions, dismissals, etc., are to be made by the commissioners, and not by the board, as formerly. The office of superintendent of schools is to be abolished and a director of education is to take over the function of looking after the scholastic end, with a salary of $6,000 per annum. Two assistant superintendents are provided for at a salary of $4,000-per annum, an increase of $1,400. One of these, of course will be colored. Who? Nobody can guess, but it is safe to say it will not be the "present incumbrance" The effect of a reduced board on its colored membership remains to be seen. In the present crisis, the main thing is to get a "square deal". It the colored people lose anything in the way of representation under the new system, they have only them-scres to blame. It is believed that the commissioners will give our people fair play all along the line. Editor Manning in our Midst Mr. A. I. Manning, editor of the Indianapolis World, and advance courier of the National Democratic Committee, refached town last Saturday and is busy this week with the session of the committee that is fixing the time and place of the next national convention of the Jeffersonian party. Mr. Manning is usually the custodian of the prized $100,000 check that is put up by the city that wins the convention. Mr. Manning's host of friends, chief among them Bishop Alexander Walters, are extremelyuxious to have him "land" a position under the administration commensurate with long party service and unflagging loyalty, and they still have hope that a suitable berth will be found for him. It is said that he might be persuaded to accept the recordership of deeds, if it should be tendered. This desirable plum is still unplucked and the $1,000 salary is lapsing. It is an open secret that Mr. Manning could have had the Liberian Mission, but declined it, and joined Bishop Walters in the recommendation that led to the selection SAVANNAH, GEORGIA, SATURDAY DECEMBER 11TH.

Dr. and Mrs. Fonvielle arrived here Thursday of last week and are living at 521 East Park Avenue. BURNED TO DEATH In a fire which started in a frame house in Bolton street lane near West Broad on last Tuesday afternoon, Mrs. Judy Hart was burned to death in an upstairs room. She had been living there with her daughter, Mrs. Pattence Graham, but there was no one in the house when the fire caught. Her son-in-law, Mr. Alex Graham, arrived on the scene a short while after the blaze was detected and knowing the old lady was upstairs attempted to rescue her, but the flames having enveloped the entire inside of the building made it impossible for him to reach her. Mrs. Hart will be remembered as the old blind woman. When on the streets she carried a stick in front of her as a guide and at times a little boy led her with a stick. She was buried on Thursday morning. THE FOOTBALL SEASON AMONG NEGRO COLLEGES PRODUCES MANY SURPRISES HAMPTON, FISK AND WILBERFORCE HAVE EXCEPTIONALLY FINE RECORDS 1915 INCENDIARY FIRES CAUSE BIG LOSS Planters Warned to get Rid of Negro Employes. Atlanta, Dec. 6.—News was received in Atlanta to-day to fire losses, totalling over $90,000 in Cherokee county following warnings to planters to get rid of their Negro employees. It was learned to-day that there had been found fires. In two cases warnings had been received, but in the other two instances it is stated that no notice had been sent. The Coggins brothers, who have immense barns and granaries near Canton, Ga., lost $75,000. Hal Coggins who lives in Atlanta, said he did not believe the insurance would cover the losses. Other losers by the fire were Otto Sherman, about $10,000; Guy Stinger, about $5,000, and Freeman Bell about $1,000. In every case, proof was left that the fires were of incendiary origin. Coggins stated to-day to reporters in Atlanta that the barns of his company would be rebuilt. HIS CILARITABLENESS PROVEN Mr. Geo. S. Williams Left Large Estate The will of Mr. Geo. S. Williams, who died a few weeks ago, was probed in the ordinary's court. It proved that he had amassed a snug competence by his wise investments and frugality. Mr. Williams was always of a charitable disposition and no worthy appeal was turned down by him. This much was especially shown in the disposition of his holdings. He left a house on Burroughs street for his two sisters. He allowed Miss Mary H. Williams five dollars per month and provided a home for her for life. Mrs. Luvinian Hill, a sister-in-law, was bequeathed $200, and the same amount to Mrs. Lillian Williams Seymore of Hartford, Conn. Charity hospital of which he was president and one of its olders trustees, was donated fifty dollars. Two more of his relatives, Messrs. George T. Williams and J. H. Blunt were also financially remembered. Mr. Williams was devotion itself to his beloved wife. Mrs. Mamie Miller Williams, and in proof of this and her loyalty and helpfulness to him, he left her the sole executrix without the least restriction. She receives the residue of the estate. Those who have been apprised of the contents of the will were free in expressing its thoughtfulness and thorpeness.

Battise, the well-known barber, who has been confined at the Charity hospital for more than five weeks, where he underwent an operation, is able to be out again. ON AMONG NEGRO CES MANY SURPRISES BERFORCE HAVE EXCEP- NE RECORDS Game Well Attended Hampton Wins Middle Atlantic Championship.—Morehouse Leads Georgia Schools Again—Livingstone and A. and T. Best In North Carolina—Va. Normal Plays Heaviest Schedule—Improvement in teams. Many were the surprises among the Negro colleges during the foot ball season just closed. Innumerable were the times when the reckoning of the dopsers went for naught and they were forced by the unexpected so often happening, to admit that their reasoning was a little faulty. Up in the middle Atlantic states the stalwart team of Hampton had the edge on all of their opponents and by reason of their 18 to 0 victory over Howard will have to be given the championship of that section. Hampton's record this year was exceptionally good and in no instance was her goal line crossed by an opponent while she succeeded in piling up 148 points against her adversaries. In the southeast and middle south Fisk University, by virtue of the heavy schedule played and the overwhelming defeat she administered to Tuskegee on Thanksgiving day, will, no doubt, be conceded first place by most of the followers of the gridiron. In this state the Morehouse Tigers again carried off the honors. Because of many injuries to the team during the early fall, Morehouse had to play her last two games under great handicaps but proved a worthy and formidable foe, not losing a single game and holding aloft the colors of the Empire state of the South against some of the best teams of the country. In the Tar Heel state they were unable to decide the championship, although Livingstone and the Agricultural and Technical College tried twice during the season to decide this question between themselves, both games resulting in ties. The heaviest schedule of any Negro college was played by the Virginia Normal and Industrial Institute. Nine games was played by this school all resulting in victories except the one with Virginia Union, which the latter captured by a score of 9 to 7. Of the twenty schools enumerated below two succeeded in keeping their goal line uncrossed, they being Hampton and Knoxville. In South Carolina the State College boys at Orangeburg went the season without a defeat, as did also Wilberforce University in Ohio. Knoxville College and Jackson College. Miss. On the whole the attendance at the games was much better than last year and the spectators in most instances were afforded an excellent brand of the game. The following is the result of the games so far as we have been able to ascertain, upon which the dopsters may frame many argument to suit their respective favorites: Fisk University Fisk 62.....Franklin Y.

Saturday December 11th, 1915 The first gun in the presidential campaign was ured last Monday when the Democratic national committee met and decided to call the Democratic National Convention in St. Louis, June 14, 1916. The Republican National Committee meets next Tuesday in Washington, when a call for the National Convention will be decided upon. During the reconstruction period lawlessness reigned supreme under the name of the "Klu Klux Klan. This momenclature is being perpetuated by certain zealots forming a fraternal union in Atlanta. We had hoped that before the termination of the present year, that we would have had established at least a first class centrally located grocery store and a well stocked furniture store. These and other enterprises are badly needed in the city. Instead of duplicating our interests it would be far better for our men of means to divert their attention in a more diversified way in order to attract some of the dollars that are going into the coffers of the other fellow. May the coming year see the establishment of these and other badly needed enterprises among us. Only a few days more before the closing of the tax books which carries an additional cost to delinquent tax payors. This should be a call especially to the voters to qualify in order to participate in the elections of the coming year. At present this state enjoys perpetual registration with the provision of each year's tax being paid. This should be an incentive for from our men to keep up and many mare of them to be placed on the registration list. At least be a qualified citizen. The more than eight thousand dollars to be distributed to day by the Wage Earners Savings Bank, to members of its Christmas club, show how much our people, and especially the little ones can save by putting aside methodically a few cents. This should be an incentive for hundreds more of our people to join these Christmas Clubs, and not only that but save a part of their earnings and deposit same in the colored banks. Our people are entirely too weak to be acting along factional lines. Those who are leading in it should be discarded by the people. Atlanta is trying to recall its mayor and a few of its councilmen. Among the petitioners for the recall are several colored voters. Capital is being made of this fact. It is hoped that the day will come when certain of our white friends will come using dark glasses. One night this week in Cherokee county a big farming concern lost $90,000 by fire, which was of an incidiary nature. The prepetrators claim that it was done as a warning for all the Negro employees to be discharged and run out of that county. Another claim is made that the perpetrators committed arson in order to cover up their thievery. At one note, the poor Negro being used as the buffer. Last week we published a very interesting article from the pen of Mr. Chas, F. Waters, on the singers of long ago. This article conjured up pleasant memories to those who know the organizations named, and the sweet singers connected with them. Savannah was always noted for its sweet singers, its choirs and other musical organizations.

S. Blocker Beaufort, S. C., Dec. 9.—One of the most beautiful weddings seen here for some time, was that of Mr., Joseph Mulligan and Miss Rosa Bryant on Thanksgiving evening at Tabernacle Baptist Church, Rev. D. W. Bythewood officiated. Immediately after the ceremony a reception was held in honor of the bride and groom at the beautiful home of Mr. and Mrs. Elliott, corner Harrington and Prince streets. Both the bride and groom are very popular, as was shown by the many hansome presents received.—Mrs. Sadie D. Folk was called to the bed side of her mother at Jackson, Miss, this past week.—Major J. H. Fordam, of Orangchurg, S. C., was in the city for a few days last week. While here he was the guest of Hon J. I. Washington.—Mrs. Rosa Williams has returned home after spending two weeks in Augusta. While there Mrs. Williams took in the colored fair.—Rev. P. P. Watson is in the city this week. Rev. Watson is always a welcome guest at his old home.—Mrs. Josephine Bythewood died Friday December 3rd at her home on Duke street. Her funeral took place Sunday from the F. A. B. Church.—Emancipation day in Beaufort, January first, promises to be the largest held here in years. The local committee will arrange for floats and other displays of Negro progress. The school children will be given prizes for fancy work, canning and cooking matches. Interest is being manifested here in the celebration.—Rev. Jennings, the new minister of the Wesley M. E. Church, preached his first sermon in Beaufort last Sunday to a large crowd which was out to welcome him to our city.—Miss Julia Moore is out again after being ill for two weeks at her home on Scott street.—At the auditorium Thursday evening, December 2. "East Lynn", a stirring drama in five acts was presented for the benefit of F. A. B. Church. The cast of characters was as follows: Sir Francis Levinson, Mr. Earnest A.

Butler, as he is commonly called among Atlantans, but who is better known by his fraternal brethren for his many deeds, has brought great benefits and profitable results in many measures that would have been lost had it not been for the devoted interest that Dr. Butler has in his brothers. Dr. Butler is a resourceful diplomat as well as a distinguished physician and surgeon. He, by his statesmanship, made it possible for the order to exist today in the southern states, yet he has received no credit for his masterly works from the people of his city or state. He is a member of the Supreme Lodge, and it was at a meeting of that august body that he, after all the stars of eloquence and legal knowledge had failed to solve the perplexing problem that confronted them concerning the future existence of the order in Georgia, when they failed, Dr. Butler poured out his healing balm of knowledge upon the troubled waters of anxiety and thereby caused measures to be passed that were directly responsible for the existence of the greatest fraternal organization the world has ever known, and for his many deeds of a like character he has been appointed Surgeon General of the Supreme Jurisdiction of N. A., S. A., E., A., A., A., receiving his appointment last week. We all should exclaim with sincere hearts. "Long live Gen' Butler, and may his days be lengthened for in him we have found a fraternal savior."—Capt. John H. Fletcher, Pythian Editor, Atlanta Post. SICK IN NEW YORK The many friends in this city of Mr. Joseph S. Williams will regret to learn of his critical illness in New York City. He is formerly a Savannahian, but for a number of years he and his wife, Mrs. Frances Smith Williams, have been living in New York. Since the beginning of the great European war which is being waged by twelve contending countries, who, by their actions, seem to enjoy the practice of killing and malning a few thousand men a day, which work of man slaughter has been going on for the past sixteen months, and because of the deadly work of the much dreaded submarines, which destroy in a few minutes that which it took months, yea, even years to build up, and all of which is being done in the waters under the earth; while the air craft of modern warfare is hurling their deadly missiles from above upon the heads and property of their enemies, whether they be real or imaginary, this our own country which is at peace with all nations of the earth has now come to the conclusion that the only hope for her in the event that a hostile nation should essay to "put us into our class", is "preparedness." "Preparedness First" "Preparedness First" Preparedness first is exactly the point we had in mind when we began our letter for this week. In many respects individuals are like nations. Those nations which prepared in advance of this great war are the ones which are causing the others which did not prepare to sit up and take notice. The same rule of preparedness which is bringing success to the warriors in the European countries today will also bring success to the Negro business man in this community, when the rule has been intelligently applied. It is indeed a mistaken idea which no Negro man engaged in business should cherish and entertain for one moment, that he can get and hold the trade of the fastidious public without first being prepared to do so. The black man with money to spend, is like the people of all other races, he is now beginning to want the best for nothing. The troughtful Negro business man, like all other business men, is thinking and planning as the days go and come how he may not only hold what business he has but he may gradually put on a substantial increase. The Negro business man is also learning the important lesson of keeping his stock up to the high standard set by the other fellow. He has also learned that to get and hold trade, it is necessary to keep his wares and shelf goods clean, free from dust, cobwebs, fly-specks, etc. Like the other fellow, he is beginning to learn that when two or more persons come into his place of business and ask for a certain article or a special brand, it is time that such article or brand he kept in stock. In other words, the average high class business Negro has decided if the other fellow can make good as a business factor in the same line in which he is engaged, that he can and will make good too. The twentieth century Negro business man has long since learned that he cannot be classed as a first class grocer with only a few dusty cans of sardines and a few trashy gallons of grits in an open tub or box in some little dark, foul smelling shop. He has also learned if it is necessary for the other fellow to keep his place of business clean, will lighted, well stocked, properly ventilated and attractive, that he, too, must do likewise if he would make good in his special line. What is true with reference to the up-to-date Negro grocer, is also true with the Negro dry goods merchant, the Negro banker, the Negro doctor, the Negro lawyer, the Negro insurance man, in fact, every Negro who has the other fellow as a competitor, should see to it that he be prepared in every respect to deliver the goods. Perseverance Perseverance is only another name used in business circles for one sticking to his or her job. Once upon a time when we as a race were without men who really had any practical experience in the love of business and in the professions, and when one would venture in without first counting up the cost and would fall, there were those on both sides of the fence, so to speak, who would be deeply in sympathy with him who failed, but now-a-days when practical men of the race can be secured, whose training came as a result of years of service in the other fellow's business where they were taught to do things in a way that profits and dividends would occur from the business in which they were engaged, and when our men engaged in business allow themselves and their enterprises to fall in the face of all of these advantages in their favor there is no sympathy or consideration to be expected. It is not enough for a man to thoroughly understand the business in which he is, engaged but, to make that business succeed as it should, it is highly necessary for him to keep everlasting on the job. In other words it means perseverance first, last and all the time. Swimming up Stream. It is said that this nerve straining venture is only engaged. In by the game fish. The Negro man engaged in business, meeting and overcoming the many obstacles, as he stems the tides of adversities, may be truthfully classed as the game fish of the race. There are no great deeds accomplished worth while, without thought and labor. As we close this letter we wish to call the young men's attention one more time to the importance of registering and paying one dollar and having their names placed among those of all men who really feel that they are a part and parcel of this government and desire all men to treat them as such.
