NEW EPISCOPAL DISTS. FORMED
United Meth. Church is Name Favored
Rev. W. D. Johnson and Rev. A. J. Carey Elected on First Bishopric Vote—Final Ballot Awaited With Much Interest.
(By Rev. W. O. P. Sherman, Jr.)
St. Louis, Mo., May 13—Balloting for the four new bishops of the African Methodist Episcopal Church, which is having its second week of general conference here, began today. The voting was very spirited and on the first ballot Rev. Wm. Decker Johnson, of Plains, Ga., and Rev. A. J. Carey of Chicago, a native Georgian were returned winners. There will be several other elimination ballots taken tomorrow.
Aside from the election of bishops the most important topic brought before this week's session of the conference was that of consolidating the three Negro Methodist churches, the African Methodist Episcopal, African Methodist Episcopal Zion and the Colored Methodist Episcopal church. The name proposed for the merger is the United Methodist church of the world. Organic union was the main feature of Monday's session held at the Coliseum, Rt. Rev. H. B. Parks, presiding. Enthusiasm reached a high pitch when Bishop Parks announced that A. M. E. Z. general conference in session at Louisville, Ky. had voted 200 strong in favor of organic union. The C. M. E. synod two years ago voted for the union unanimously. No dissenting votes were cast today against the union.
Dr. G. T. Robinson of this cityw as the fraternal delegate from the M. E. church and was responded to by Dr. A. J. Carey of Chicago. Dr. J. B. Isaac of Nebraska declared in an address today that a new day faces a new Negro with new problems. He said that he must have vision, courage, resourcefulness, valor and above all things must be willing to cooperate with his brothers. Dr. Hamlett, the manager of the C. M. E. Book Concern, delivered fraternal greetings from the C. M. E. church and was accompanied by Bishop Williams of Georgia, Bishop Lane, Bishop Cottrell, Bishop Carter, Bishop Hood and others.
Rev. W. C. Shelton, D. D., a former Georgian, died very suddenly on the streets of St. Louis Thursday, his funeral being held from St. Paul A. M. church on Saturday at 12 o'clock.
Bishop J. S. Flipper of Georgia read the Episcopal Address and in it was recommended that four bishops be elected at this session. Fully free thou and people witnessed the play "Mary Magdalene" on Friday night. Four new Episcopal districts, making a total of nineteen in the organization, were provided for in a report of the committee on episcopacy adopted Tuesday. It was recommended that Mississippi and Alabama, at present in the eighth and ninth districts respectfully, be made separate districts and that the section west of the Rocky Mountains, now a part of the fifth, be made a district. The other will be in South America, with the episcopate at Rio de Janeiro, it was said.
Resolutions were adopted urging passing the anti-lynching bill pending before Congress, which would make lynching a federal offense and demanding that the United States remove its troops from the island of Haifa, where it has not only assumed to take the reigns of government from those to whom it properly belongs, but whose troops are debauching their women and murdering their men."
The pageant "The First One Hundred Years of the A. M. E. Church" was staged Tuesday night under the direction of Prof. F. L. Williams. The following glee clubs sang: Club from Morris Brown University; Shorter College, Lampton College and Wilberforce University.
The 26th session marks the greatest in the history of the church. The conference is composed of some of the braintest men in the country, they are here from far and near, about 2,000 in number, in every walk of life. Bishop J. Albert Johnson delivered the quadrennial sermon, it being far above the average.
Several ministers who served as chaplains during the recent war are in attendance. Revs. M. Collins, C. G. Parks, A. G. Casper, C. Stewart, B. W. S. Demison, R. A. Green and Jno. Hill. Rev. A. L. Wilson North Carolina was elected chairman of the episcopal committee; Rev. J. I. Lowe of Arkansas, vice chairman. Rev. S. Johnson of Texas, secretary and Rev. G. W. Williams of Georgia, assistant secretary.
The session will close during next week.
The C. M. E. Bishops are also here in session at the New Lane Tabernacle. Enright and Newstead streets, those present being Bishops C. H. Phillips, L. Holsby, Atlanta, Ga.; I. Lane, Jackson, Teen.; E. Cottrell, Holly Springs, Miss.; R. A. Carter, Chicago, Ill.; N. C. Cleaves, St. Louis, Mo.

Rev. Father Dahlent Dies.In Macon
Was Much Beloved by the Negroes
Among. Whom He Worked
The body of Rev. Father Joseph Dahlent, pastor of St. Peter Claver's church, Macon, who died there Monday night, arrived here Wednesday. The body lay in state at St. Benedict's church from Wednesday until yesterday morning when the funeral was held at 9 o'clock, the interment being at the Cathedral cemetery.
P.
Father Dahlent was a native of Alsace-Lorraine, having been born there on April 4, 1876. He finished the course of study at the parochial school of his home and then went to Clermont Ferrand, France, where he entered the apostolic school of the missionaries of Lyons.
He made his theological course in the city of Lyons, France, in 1895, and was ordained a priest in 1890. He had been working in different places as a professor and a priest and was first engaged in college work in Cork, Ireland. On account of his lifelong delicate health his superiors sent him to Vally, Island of Samos, where he remained for a year. He ultimately came to Georgia.
Father Dahlent was a former pastor of St. Benedict's church for five years, during which time he endeared himself to the colored people of the city, his sunny disposition and general character making for him many very ardent friends not only in the church which he served but among the Negroes thruout the city. He showed his faith in the Negroes in every respect, and at all times did what was in his power for their uplift. In Macon, where he served last, no less high regard was felt for him by the colored citizens. His funeral yesterday morning was largely attended, the Rev. Father Oberedit having charge of the services. Special services were held at the Cathedral cemetery previous to the interment. Members of the Knights of Columbus and the Catholic Aid Society of St. Benedict's church served as pall bearers.
Negro Alderman Mayor's Floor Leader
(Assoc. Secretary Negro Press)
Chicago, Ill., May 12th—The re-organization of the City Council for the coming year reveals that a colored man is to be reckoned with as one of the Council's leaders and also as the Mayor's personal representative on the floor of the City's legislature. Mayor William Hale Thompson, has been making a vigorous fight on the Municipal Voters' League, a reform body of citizens who have been keeping an eagle eye on the proceedings and ventures of the Council for a number of years.
Faint echoes of revolt have been heard in the Council during the past and this spring when the time drew near for the annual re-organization the echoes assumed the proportions of loud thunder and then it was that Louis B. Anderson, one of the aldermen from the second ward, blossomed forth as the Mayor's floor leader. It is declared in some circles, that the colored man was chosen as the goat in the matter, but if such is the case Alderman Anderson has come out of the flight with increased prestige and the reputation of being the most skillful parliamentarian in the council.
By a pronounced majority the representative of the Municepal Voter's League was deprived of the privilege of a seat in the Council Chamber among the aldermen. The local daily press is apparently getting much joy out of the situation by playing up the part that Anderson played in the ousting as a victory of the sinister forces of the City Administration. Mr. Anderson retorts that the reason he made a vigorous fight against the continuation of the League's activities in the Council's affairs was because he regarded the members of that organization a lot of busy bodies who worked from selfish motives rather than for the public good. In the meantime, the colored citizens appear to be getting a deal of satisfaction out of the important and what they call the dignified part their colored representative played in the fight.
Mayor Favors Armory For 15th
(Associated Negro Press)
New York, N. X., May 12th—At a mass meeting of the colored people in the district of Harlem, Mayon Hyland declared himself to be in favor of the erection of an Armory for the celebrated "Buffaloes," the 15th Regiment of this city, last week. He advocated the collection of funds for this purpose.
SAVANNAH, GEORGIA
WOOD REMAINS PRES CHOICE
Negro. Gubernatorial Candidate Refused
"Lilly White" Situation In South Promises Trouble
Chicago, Ill., May 12th—Politics as might reasonably be expected, is the all absorbing topic of the day. And the nearer we get to the convention time the more intense grows the interest. Candidates, of course, hold the center of the stage. It is admitted on all sides that the event of the past week have apreciable cleared the atmosphere. thehe is no doubt now as to' who will be the chief contenders for the nomination when the convention gets well under way. Wood, Johnson and Lowden, in the order named, are the men who will start off with the big lead. In other conventions this situation has proven to be a handicap. There are signs, however, that this is not likely to be the case this time. At least the wise acres have decreed that there is a pronounced undercurrent which establishes Leonard Wood as the strongest "Second choice" who has ever weathered a pre-convention fight.
Next in point of interest comes the "Lily White" situation in the south. This question is giving the leaders no small concern. It does not matter to them that the south, weary of carrying the weight of an inept economic system, is making an effort to shift its political affiliations to the Republican Party. Men who appear to be alive to what they call the "serious necessity" for electing a Republican President affect to believe that small dependence can be put in any "break of the south" from its traditional political moorings at this time. No a few of them, however, are between a "white devil and a black blue sea." They want to perserve the integrity of the black vote in the north, but they aslo want to perserve the white integrity of their race in the south. Hence the dilemma.
The colored candidate for governor of Arkansas has been refused a certificate of nomination by the Secretary of State T. J. Terrell. Secretary held that J. H. Blount, the colored man nominated by the Colored Republicans in their recent convention, did not represent the regular Republican organization of the State and therefore he could not issue to him a certificate of nomination. The colored men propose to carry the matter to the State Supreme Court and if necessary to the U. S. Supreme Court for adjudication. A full set of delegates will be selected by the colored men to represent them in the National Convention.
About 100 out of the 984 seats in the National Convention will be contested according to the estimates made by those who are on the inside of things here. All but fourteen of these contests will come from the South. The situation in this regard is causing not a little uneasiness among the various campaign managers and plans are now being seriously considered by which an amicable adjustment may be reached before the convention meets. This is considered necessary because the colored votes in the north is becoming restless because of an impression gathering impetus among them has led them to believe that there is well defined plot to read them out of the party council. This phase of the general situation is sure to be watched with more than curiosity interest.
Bankers See Chance Among Negroes
(Associated Negro Press)
(Associated Negro Press)
Chicago, Ill., May 12—One of the most significant signs of the times is the development of investment propensities among the people of our group. This has been demonstrated in recent months as never before by Kriebel & Co., investment bankers, a large banking firm of Chicago.
As recognition of the possibilities for investment, this well known and reputable firm secured the service of F. M. Babb, one of the most progressive young men of that community, whose reputation for honesty and fair dealing is unquestioned, Mr. Babb entered the office of this institution with zeal and determination, and has had singular success in disposing of listed stocks of the highest grade.
So remarkable has been his-success in a constructive and efficient manner, that the firm has decided to establish a branch office on the South Side, in the neighborhood of the new business center of Indiana Avenue and 35th Street, promoting Mr. Babb to manager of the new department. This marks one of the most unusual business ventures in which the group has ever shared, and bids fair to stir financial circles from one end of the country to the other. Mr. Babb is recording secretary of the Chicago Business League and a prominent member of the Apomatto Club.
Whites and Negroes Work in Harmony
(Associated Negro Press)
Asherville, N. C., May 12th—The Colored waiters is coming into fashion again in this city. Colored waiters are now being used in the leading restaurants being the first to return to their use. An interesting phase of the situation is that the white waiters are not trying to break away from the colored men, but are working side by side with them. If the experiment proves a success other cafes in the city will adopt the plan, it is said:

CLUBS' UNION REFUSE DEMAND
Increased Cost of Music Opposed
Several Clubs Object to Action-Taken By Social Clubs Union
At a meeting of the Social Clubs Union held Friday night of last week, at Union Brotherhood Club, Price and Oglethorpe avenue, resolutions were adopted, restraining the various clubs that compose the union from hiring any band or orchestra that is allied with the Musicians' Union.
The action was taken on account of the increased charge of the musicians for furnishing music. The meetings of the Social Clubs Union are made up of representatives from the various clubs and it is apparent that many of the members of the clubs are unfavorable to the action of the union.
The matter will most likely come before the union again and efforts will be made to have the union rescind its actions. Should the re-solution become effective, the various clubs will be handcapped in securing first class music and therefore they are very like to lose a great deal of their patronage at entertainments.
In discussing the matter with several musicians, it was stated, that the increased cost for the upkeep of their instruments and the advanced price in sheet music forced them to make the raise. It is the opition of many that the musicians are entitled to more pay and a fight should not be made against them by the Social Clubs Union.
The raised prices of the musicians are: Street parades, $35.00; holidays, $45.00; funeral marches from house $30.00; when from house and church $55.00; night escorts $20.00 one way; $30.00 return or two ways; excursions all day not less than six men $7.00 per man; afternoon excursions $25.00; dance orchestras not less than five pieces $20.00
Negroes More Interested Than Whites
(Associated Negro Press)
Montgomery, Ala., May 12th—Colored teachers are outstripping white teachers in this state. At least, that is the conclusion reached by Dr. N. R. Baker, a county superintendent who lives in this city. Dr. Baker has disclosed the fact that there were eighty white teachers and one hundred colored teachers who stood for the recent examinations. "I wonder," said the Doctor, "if the white people know that there is more interest being shown among the colored people in school work than there is among the whites. This condition', continues the doctor, "cannot continue without danger to our civilization. The colored race is furnishing all the teachers needed for themselves and are improving their school work steadily. The whites are neglecting themselves in this particular."
Street Car Smashes Auto
In a collision Thursday afternoon, a five passenger Buick belonging to P. Edw. Perry, president of the Mechanics Bank was greatly damaged by a southbound A. and B. car at Abercorn and Gwinnett streets. Mr. Perry who was driving the car at the time of the accident escaped injury. Mr. Perry was going west on Gwinnett and was turning south on Abercorn when the car coming from the north struck the right side of his machine, knocking it with much force into a north bound car which was standing still tikking on passengers.
It is claimed that the car which struck the machine did not give the customary signal when it reached the cross streets where the accident occurred. The machine suffered about a 8400 damage.

They have employed an export of the Royal Baking Powder Company of New York and have organized a baking school which meets Monday, Tuesday and Thursday afternoons.

Colored Women Asked To Contribute
My dear Co-workers:
This message comes to call your special attention to the fact that our drive for funds with which we are hoping to help bring success to the Republican party this year, comes to a close May 30th.

MAN DROWNS ON EXCURSION
Wm. Davis Accidentaly Falls Overboard
Was Sitting on Moonlight Boat Ralling And Was Suddenly Knocked into Water by Passing Dancers—Body Not Recovered.
The second fatality in eight days attending river excursions occurred Tuesday night on a moonlight trip down the river when William Davis of Hancock street lost his life by falling overboard near the dredge which is stationed near the "waving house." The excursion left the city about nine oclock for a trip to Daufurkle island on the steamer St. John.
About nine hundred or more persons gathered for the excursion, which pushed off without any untoward incidents. After the boat had gone but a short distance from the city, the crowd began to get boisterous and unruly, and when the boat had reached a point in the river where it was to turn off for Daufuskie it was decided by the management, on account of the only mood of the crowd not to visit the picnic ground where a stop of an hour or two was to have been made, but to continue a little farther-down the river and then return to the city.
Much drinking is said to have been indulged in on the boat and this put the crowd in a highly restless spirit. When the boat returning got near the house from which persons wave at all out going vessels the report went out that a man had fallen overboard. It was William Davis, a young man of about 24 years, who was sitting on the railing on the lower deck, who was accidentally knocked overboard by the crowd which was dancing near where he was sitting. It was stated, though not authoritatively, that he had been drinking heavily and therefore was not aware of the dangerous position in which he was sitting. A stop was made as soon as the warning, "a man overboard," was made and an effort made to rescue him, but he was not to be seen and the boat continued to the city, reaching here about midnight. The drowned man was a porter at Livingston's pharmacy. News of his death was immediately carried to his wife, Mrs. Gertrude Davis, who said she knew her husband had gone on the trip. Beside a wife, a two year old daughter and a baby two months old survive him. The body had not been recovered up to yesterday morning.
The drowning of Davis recalls that only on Monday of last week a young woman, Mrs. Bessie Haynes, lost her life on an excursion by jumping into the river.

May 5th—The Southern Sociological Congress will hold its sessions in this city from May 9 to 11th. Race views are to be given. On the closing day Dr. Robert R. Moton, president of the Jesse Institute, will deliver an address on "The Negro in Community and National Service." This entire day will be given over to a conference on race relations. Gov. Carl E. Milliken, of Maine, will be chairman.
The other speakers including persons of prominence are, Gov. Thomas W. Bickett, of North Carolina, who has as his subject "The Obligation of the White Man to See That the Negro Gets a Square Deal;" Dr. W. D. Deathford, Nashville, Tenn.; Prof. J. E. KZ Aggrey, Sallisbury, N. C.; Prof. Monroe N. Work, Tuskegee Institute; Dr. George L. Hayes; Dr. Emmett J. Scott; Prof. Allaue LeRoy Locke, Harvard University; Prof. John M.

About 950 members of the Knights and Daughters of Jérusalem gathered at the Metropolitan Baptist Church, where the annual sermon was delivered to the Order by the Rev. M. W. D. Norman, pastor. The Knights of Jerusalem is one of the strongest organizations operating here and has much good work to its credit.
Miss Thersa Herbert, ninety years old, formerly a slave in the family in which she served until a short while ago, died here after a brief illness. She was born in Charles County, Maryland, and refused to leave her owners even after slavery. Her remains were interred in the burial plot of the family of her employees at Mount Olivet Cemetery.
The Ministerial Alliance of Washington indorsed the strike of colored hod carriers and laborers and pledged itself to have all pastors discourage men in their congregations from taking the jobs left vacant by the strikers. About 2,000 men were involved in the strike.
The choir of the Lincoln Temple Congregational Church rendered a service of sacred songs, from works of celebrated composers, "O Thou the Contrite Sinner's Friend," Bewald; "Turn Thy Face from My Sins," Scott; "Lord, for Thy Tender Mercies Sake," Woodman; and "The Lord's Own Holy Day," Shelly, being the choral works. Dr. Charles Summer Wormley, baritone soloist of more than ordinary ability, was in excellent voice in Judge Me O God, and It Is Enough, from Dijah
The singing by the men's Lorus of "Lord and Father, I call on Thee" was a feature. The other soloist were Mrs. Eilhul Calloway Pearing, soprano, and Mr. R. D. Carlton Dorsey, violinist, who rendered Kuisler's Indian Lament. Under the pastorate of Rev. Emory B. Smith Lincoln Temple has shown wonderful growth. The unusual incident of forty persons being added to the church at one time was brought to pass, through Rev. Smith's efforts. A new edifice is proposed.
Much activity centers around Robert L. Miller and Armand W. Scott, who are candidates for delegates to the Republican National Convention. Frank J. Hogan and James A. Cobb are slated for delegates and W. T. Galliber will be one of the alternate elected. The Board of Education was criticized for its refusal to grant the use of the school buildings. John T. Rhines, a prominent undertaker, declaring that the board was opposed to suffrage in the District because it knew that the first election would be for members of the school board.
The social activities for the week included a number of affairs the principal of which was a testimonial to Mr. Nathaniel Guy, prominent in educational and dramatic work. He stands at the head of the race's best in Shake-peran roles.

THE YAMACRAW KINDERGARTEN It has been refreshing and satisfying to no mean degree to watch the splendid work which has been done during this year by the Yamacraw Free Kindergarten Association at its school in the heart of Yamacraw for the children there. It was a splendid sight to see the earnest and competent teacher at her regular routine, and once especially when she took her larger group of young charges, well-garbed and orderly, through the streets of the city, amongst the great buildings, the beautiful parks past the monuments and squares, that their young and untrained but impressionable minds might profit by the rich object lessons in which this city abounds.
We know something of the struggle of the noble women who are making this agency of uplift possible, thus hardest application to the task of making money to meet the necessary current expenses. We know and sympathize with the teacher and her helpers, in the vicissitudes which they must experience to bring about results of good health, good manners, cleanliness and training of mind in a field where veriest humanity of spirit and most earnest interest are put to the severest test. And this year, these good women are reaping something of reward for their struggle, when they see the children of the school themselves in their development and progress as against their condition some months ago. It is in this, that the serving of others counts, that we shall stick to our jobs until we secure the ends of helpfulness which we set out to achieve.
It is going to be easier for the association now to raise its necessary funds. When the public knows that its money, all of it and more, together with countless sacrifices which money cannot buy, are being applied at the point of suffering and need and neglect, the public is not going to withhold the needed money.
The good work is going to grow and soon we shall need several good teachers and more room, and better equipment, because the field in Yamacraw is so large and so growing with the problems of delinquency and neglect. And where the stewardship has been so satisfactory as it has been this year, the people are going to delight to lend a hand in the good work, and are going to point with pride for having had a hand in the good that has been accomplished.
If the Urban League had done nothing else than establish this good work it has more than justified its existence and the faith and sacrifice of its leaders.
PICNIC FATALITIES
If picnics, boat excursions and such occasions must always be attended by fatal accidents, shooting scapes or other orgies which bring disgrace and suffering to many people, often innocent persons or dependents, it is just as well if we do not have such things. Just so long as the ruling motive in such things is money-making, whether such things are promoted by organizations or individuals, there is going to be more or less of trouble attending them. Money-making is not objectionable, if crowds can be controlled, bad whiskey eliminated and a legitimate amusement provided for those spending that money. Peaceable and self-controlled patrons of such public affairs have a right of protection against reckless elements of people who frequent the mercenary picnic and the commercial dance hall. The responsibility for the proper conduct of these affairs is with the management alone.
Two lives have paid the toll of two recent boat excursions which left our city. Who can tell how many souls have been affected in suffering, deprivation and want, to say nothing of heart-aches, by those two calamities? How many innocent children, how many sorrowing parents? It is said that the crowd attending the last fatal picnic, was large, mongrel and tough; that moonshine and the arms abounded; and that the crowd was in ugly, mood throughout the entire occasion.
Investigation has revealed that during last summer, many of the boat excursions were very disorderly, and that there are those who would attend or promote such affairs who do not do so because it is next to impossible to prevent the abuses which we have outlined above
There are a great many clubs, churches and other organizations which carry clean, well-behaved, legitimate bout excursions. Must these be denied the pleasure of a day's outing because others, for mere money, will promote the disorderly sort? It is good thing to have a dark
tressure on the sails. It is refreshing and restoring to the people to get out of town for a day with one's family, one's friends or one's sweetheart. We, therefore, in the interest of personal safety and public danger, should see it that ruthens are curbed and restrained on these occasions, whiskey and firearms absolutely forbidden and good order preserved, at whatever cost. If we do this, we shall save to the people the pleasure which comes from such diversions, and rid the world of much distress and suffering.
NO DANCE HALL OVER ST. AUGUSTINE'S PULPIT.
To: the Editor of the Sagannah Tribune:
Kindly allow the following article to appear in your newsy journal. Last week there appeared in the columns of another paper an unwarranted, vicious and ungentlemanly attack on St. Augustine's church and the priest in charge. Who is this man so bludged by prejudice and love of filthy lucre that he can unblushingly juggle the truth and misstates facts as to say that there is a dance hall over the pulpit of St. Augustine's? Over that sacred, edifice nothing waves but the cross and the blue dome of heaven. There, three bishops of the holy church have had their spiritual thrones. Two of them have passed to the great beyond, one still remains. Saints innumerable have worshipped at this shrine and to me this man Petty, who is as small as his name, has slapped every Christian in the face as well as blasphemed the memory of those who have gone on to glory everlasting. His ungodly and mudslinging attack has shown the Christian people of Savannah what happens when a stand is taken by our ministers for dececey and sweet morality.
Thanking you again, I am,
Very truly yours,
Mr. Georgia C. Keller

Virginia Ind. School Continues Work
School Founded by Colored Women Of Virginia Holds Meeting
Hampton, Va., May 10—Mrs. Henry Lane Schmelitz of Hampton president of the Industrial Home School for Colored Girls, founded by the Virginia State Federation of Colored Women's Clubs and located at Peak's Turnout in Hanover county, presided at the sixth annual meeting of the trustees, which was recently held at Hampton Institute, of which Dr. James E. Gregg is principal.
Mrs. Schnelz and Superintendent Janie Porter Barrett, who is the secretary of the board, acting for the entire board of trustees, signed a deed, conveying the real estate owned by the corporation in Hanover county in the commonwealth of Virginia, which under the Acts of 1920, will hereafter possess, control, and operate the school which is worth $75,000, under the title "Virginia Industrial School for Colored Girls."
Mrs. W, S, McNeill of Richmond, chairman of a committee of the trustees, expressed the thanks of the retiring board "to all of the friends of the school and especially to the state Federation of Colored Women's Clubs." The resolution expressed the hope that all colored women of the state would continue and increase their devotion to the very worthy purposes of the school and pledge to the officers of the Commonwealth the good will and cooperation of the retiring trustees.
The following officers were elected to serve on the governor's board of managers: Mrs. H. L. Schmelz, president, Hampton; Mrs. W. S. McNeil, vice president, Richmond; F. W. Darling, treasurer, Hampton; Mrs. Margq L. Walker, Richmond; Mrs. C. P. Cardwell, Richmond; Mrs. Laura E. Situs; Allen Washington, Hampton Inst; Dr. William H. Stokes; Mrs. B. B. Munford, and Superintendent Janie Porter Barrett, secretary ex-officio, Peak, Va.
Superintendent Janie Porter Barrett reported that during five years of work at the industrial home school, 140 girls had been received; that 84 are at the school now; that 28 are out on parole; that 6 are in other schools; and that 7 have married. She also reported that the girls on parole are doing well; and there is need of a year-round teacher and domestic-science equipment.
P. W. Darling of Hampton, treasurer, reported that 81,639 were on hand for the Harris Barrett Cottage Fund, and 81,422 were on hand for the general fund.
"In several of the southern cities," said Mrs. Schmelz, "I found, while on a tour of Interchurch World Movement conferences, that our school was used as an illustration of Christian brotherhood between the races and in working out inter-racial problems. Mrs. Martha P. Falconer, repre-enting the Fosie Commission, voluntarily made this statement; I visited all such institutions and I find that the money which the government has expended through the Peak School for wayward colored girls has produced the largest result and has been the most efficiently administered of any of the funds which the government has appropriated for like purposes anywhere in the United States.

May 11th—Twenty-three Wiley University students volunteered for the Methodist ministry and eighty-one women students dedicated their lives to some form of Christian service during the three weeks' sesion at the university at Marshall, Tex. of the Centenary school for rural pastors last March.
"Emphasis placed on making the rural church an agency of community service, economically, socially and educationally, was what wont me," declared one of the students who volunteered for the ministry. "The Centenary program for making the church of practical aid to country people in their business, their work and their play is mighty fine. I want to have a hand in it."
Strange sights were seen at Wiley during the sessions of the rural pastors' school. Preachers butchered, salted and smoked a hog, learning the proper processes. Stripped of their coats and with sleeves rolled up, they ploughed and planted a patch of land, and fenced it with brush. They made tin cups from tin cans, and also, made scoops, tly taps and fireless cookers. One afternoon the entire sixty-nine in attendance from rural colored charges in Louisiana, Mississippi, Arkansas and Texas pruned the trees on the campus. Two afternoons, the preachers spent cleaning and raking lawns and backyards. They planted a hundred shrubs and vines on the campus and nearly surrounded one large dormitory with ivy. They stretched a tremendous cloth-line for the girl students of the dormitories who had been hanging their washings on a barbed wire fence.
Finally, just to show they were good sports as well as workers, the preachers with a "pick up" club played the Wiley baseball club and won by a score of 5 to 4.
Attention was given to the question of colored pastors encouraging their people to own land, and the operations of the Federal Farm Loan Banks and the methods of procuring loans were explained in detail.
Fully half the time of the school course was given to the problems of home and community betterments. Such subjects as evangelism. (religious education, church finances, church publicity and sermon-building, occupied the morning hours. But as fast as lunchoon had been eaten, the preachers took off their coats, rolled up their
sleeves and pitched in to learn by practical application how to guide country people, up the ladder of better living. The Rev. Ralph A. Felton, educational secretary, of the Rural Work Department of the Methodist Board of Home Mission, was in charge of the school. Bishop Thirkield of New Orleans who was to have been on hand the major part of the time, was stricken with "Flin" and was unable to be present only the closing days.
"This school at Wiley," said Dr. Felton," starts the second year of our series of summer schools for pastors all over the country. These summer schools form one of the projects of the Centenary. They are intended to help rural pastors to make their churches a fundamental institution of rural life by furthering community development in every aspect."

SPECIAL NOTICE
The Social Clubs' Union met on Friday night, May the 7th, inst.. at the Union Brotherhood club room and after a brief discussion on the prices the Musicians' Union has demanded, commonly voted not to use any part of said Musicians' Union, orchestra or band. There demands are unreasonable and unjust. They tell us to charge you 35 cents for admission so as to offset the high price that they charge and demand. We feel that the public is paying sufficient at 25 cents for admission, and we, therefore, will not concede to their demands and will not agree to employ them at their high price. We, the Social Clubs' Union, will use the musicians that are in our union, viz. Elks band, Knights of Damon band and the X. G. E. Drum and Bugle Corps. Therefore, we earnestly ask that the public give us their assistance to stop this uncalled for high price music.

Howard Adds To Board of Trustees
Washington, D. C., May 12—Two distinguished educators of more than National reputation, Dr. Albert Bushnell Hart, Eaton Profesor of the Science of Government in Harvard University, Cambridge, Mass., and Dr. Charles R.

Policemen Cole and Moore appeared on the scene, disarmed the young soldiers and locked them up.

THE CHAUTAU
TENT ME
Timothy Williams is an honest old farmer; and more than that, he is a Christian. He can shout "Glory, halleuah" louder than any one else; and even Mr. _____ the minister cannot pray fervently than he.
Mr. Williams is a deacon in the church, the old gray church on the corner, which he always faithfully attends, regardless of the condition of the weather.
To him this old gray church is the only temple of God upon this sinful earth; and no one has ever been able to persuade him to attend religious services outside of its walls. But about three weeks ago, some people came and pitched a big khaki tent in Yamacraw, and soon many strange opinions were formed and queer stories circulated concerning these peculiar strangers.
Some said they are trying to run a circus and campmeeting hand in hand. Others said they are only a set of religious cranks, while a few believe they must be blasphemers. General curiosity was at once, aroused; but deacon Williams is not a man to run after new things. In fact, he seldom reads the newspapers' save for the purpose of ascertaining the price of hay or potatoes; and he usually learns these important items from his old friend and admiring neighbor, Thomas Simmons.
Now "Tim" and "Tom," as they are known to each other, have grown up from boyhood together; and what one knows, the other soon finds out. Accordingly, when Thomas heard how these tentdwellers were talking and doing, how they observed "Saturday" as a sacred day of rest instead of Sunday, and are advocating other doctrines as "terrible," he went over to have a talk with "Neighbor Tim" about the impropriety of allowing such conduct in their midst. He verily he
Now when Deacon Williams heard these direful reports, he felt that it was more than his righteous soul could endure to remain silent and know of such doing among a people who called themselves Christians. It certainly did not seem right for them to be openly profaning the day which he and his father and grand father had always kept as holy, and trying to influence others to forsake the religion of their fathers. Why, this will never do. It will be giving the enemy peaceful possession; and he for one felt very determined that such evil influence must be speedily removed, though he said little to Mr. Simmons at the time.
but little to the contrary. But what followed may be better appreciated if told in Deacon Williams' own words as he told it to his friends out behind the barn on the flowling Monday morning.
"I tell you, Tom," he began, "I felt

sorter riled up the other day, when you told me about how them there folks down at that tent was talin' and actin', an' I jest made up my mind that some thin' must be done to nip sech doin' in the bud. So after eatin' a bite of supper, I put out for the pars'mage to have a talk with Rev.——about the matters, feelin' shore that hed land in an' rout 'em quick enough
Wet, when I got there, he was settin' at his desk writtn' out what I tuck to be his sermon. It didn't take me long to interduce my business; an' starin' at me sorter pestered like for a minute, he said he'd heerd of sech a people long 'fore they made their appearance in Yamacraw. But he kinder leaned to the idea that the best way was to keep shy of 'em till they pulled up an' got out. But said I, 'Everybody won't keep cler' of 'em, an' next thing we know, some of the young folks will be led off after their ways, an' the peace an' quiet in our neighborhood on Sunday will be spilled.'
"Well," said he, 'the best thing we can do is to warn the people agin 'em; fer, said he, "it ain't safe to venture onto the devil's ground to fight him and for my part, I don't keer to run the risk.'
"Well, now, Tom, you don't know how I felt when I see our pastor seemed so kinder feared an' speakin' so nettled like. Now that's not my way of doin' things; an' seeim I couldn't ex pect any help from him to rout 'em, an' recollectin' what the Bible says about not givin' place to the devil, I just settled it in my mind then, an' there that I'd go down an' jump a foul of 'em myself; fer I felt it was somebody's duty to perfect the morals of Yamacraw society.
Now, Tom, I will go down to that there tent myself, so I will be on to what them there folks is tallin' an doln' I will see, you next Monday mornin' and tell you all about it.

TRIBUTE TO LATE
CAPT EDW. SEABROOK
The following tribute was paid to the memory of the late Capt. E. Seabrook whose monument in Laurel Grove Cemetery was unveiled last Sunday afternoon:
The significance of this day is one that should be ever memorable in the minds of our Race in Southland because it is to honor one who, in his untiring efforts, has written his name high upon the scroll of fame. I am taking this liberty to write something pertaining to him because of my great love for him as a friend and brother and in recognition of the splendid work accomplished.
Though born of the humblest, over-shadowed by disadvantages and confronted with many incumbrances and vicissitudes he portrayed that irrefutable truth that mind is superior over matter
in the financial world. He was also poor in education but endowed with a natural ability, being rich in thought, immaculate in conception and concise in strategy. While South Carolina borned him, Georgia named and famed him. We, as a race, who knew him, loved him.
He was known as the colored uplifter and builder of enterprise and industry of the world. He died in Savannah, Ga., the foremost city of the United States today of colored industry, enterprise, and finance.
Tis hard to break the tender cord,
When love has bound the heart.
We must forever part, dearest love,
We have laid thee in peaceful graves' embrace,
But the memory will be cherished till we see the Heavenly face.
A personal friend,
Wm. L. Davis,
Albany, N. Y.
ASBURY M. E. CHURCH
Rev. J. A. Richie, pastor. As a minister of the gospel of Jesus Christ. I am one who believes that the first business of any minister is to preach the gospel, then to visit the sick, widows and orphans. Care fore the dying, lift up the fallen, tell them of Jesus, who is willing to save. To do this he must be relieved of the responsibility of looking after the work of the officers of the church so far as doing
their work. That means that the Sunday school superintendent, the Eppworth League president, the Ladies' president, Women's Home Missionary Society president, Ushers' Board, Stewnds Board, trustees board, Progressive club, choir and all the other departments of the church must do their own work. For them to do this it leaves the minister to do his work and do it most effectively. It is true he should meet with these departments to advise, council and help them plan their work, but leave it for them to do. The collection of money, I hold, belongs entirely to these officers, there fore, I do not collect any money in my visitations, except it be for missionary purposes strictly. The minister is not a beggar and should not at any time go about to collect his own

Fined For Selling The Crisis
(associated Negro Press)
New York, N. X., May 6th—The National Association for the Advancement of Colored people, recently made public copies of telegrams passing between the Association and the Governor and Acting Governor of Mississippi, in which the Association asked legal protection for a lawyer to appeal the case of the Rev. E. R. Franklin of Jackson, Miss., who was fined four hundred dollars and sentenced to five months on the county farm at Tehula, Miss., for selling the Crisis.
No Discriminating In School Functions
(Associated Negro Press)
Brooklyn, N. Y., May 6th—Following orders from Associated Superintendent of Schools John L. Tildsley that the color line must not be drawn in school functions, the senior class at Girls' High School voted 71 to hold its prom at the Hotel Margaret and to admit the six colored girls in the class. When plans for the dance were made, the six were informed that they would not be permitted to attend because the hotel people did not want them in the ball room.

SEEM TO FAVOR WOD
Chicago, Ill. May 6th—An effort on the part of the United States investigators, o connect colored men with a radical political movement said to have its headquarters in this city failed signally. The discovery was made that the colored voters were very busy greeting sentiment for Lowden and Wood. At present General Wood appears to have a long lead over Gov. Lowden in so far as the political affection of the race goes in the state of Illinois.

The scene below shows wild men in barbaric dance in the heart of darkest Africa, and the other shows a group of young women in "Behold the Star of Knowledge—the star will lead you on."

They will be assisted by about one hundred and fifty local people, including many kindergarten tots...In addition to these, there will be a chorus of
about two hundred under direction of Prof. R. W. Gadden, which will feature Negro spirituals...The play was written by Mrs. Alice II. Ware, wife of the present head of Atlanta University.. It shows the progress of the Negro race from its life in darkest Africa up to the present time...The Atlanta "Constitution has this to say of its presentation in Atlanta: "No play nor pageant could more dramatically express the place of the colored citizens in the life of the nation today, than "The Open Door," which was presented the other night in the Atlanta Auditorium Armory, when in the audience assembled by the Georgia Memorial Commission to do honor to the

HOW THE POLITICAL
ATAIOSPHERE APPEARS
Chicago, LIL, Miy Gth—The political
atmosphere has cleared during the past
aveck. It 1s Wood -and Johnson out
in the lead with Lowden -and Harding
trailing the leaders in the order named.
Political wiseacres are citing his-
fory fo prove that the pratical advan-
age of the present situation lies with
no particular mempar of the now fa-
mous Quartett. Vague allusions sre
being directed in the direction of Char-
les “Evans ‘Huges by these prophets.
‘They are predicting 2 deadlocked
convention, in the early — balloting.
Then, out of the nowheres of the sit-
uation will come a few scattering votes
for_Huhges. And then? Then will come
the avalanche-carefully arranged and
skillfully operated by the men, who
know how. and ont of the apparent
chaos. of the situation will emerge
Charles Evans Hughes as the standard
bearer of the party for a second try
and “sure win”
Wood is still the favorite with the
colored voters, Huges however, would
not be an unwelcome candidate
declare a goodly number of colored
leaders. “It is anybody but Lowden”
with them. One cannot get a very
-elear reason for the colored opposition

In the voting contest which the Sunday School ed upon. In going to Bificent boat St. John. T out of Savannah for th is fortunate in having s. It might be mention
In the voting contest just closed for the selection of the place to which the Sunday School should have its excursion, Beaufort was decided upon. In going to Beaufort, the Sunday School will use the magnificent boat St. John. This is a new boat, which, is carrying excursions out of Savannah for the first time this summer, and the Sunday School is fortunate in having secured her for the occasion. It might be mentioned that the Congregational Church is the only church that has been able to secure this magnificent steamer for a holiday excursion.
The excursion will take place on the 3rd of June, Jefferson Davis' birthday, a day when all of the schools and business places of the city will be closed. This in itself will assure the success of the outing. Plans for the occasion are being rapidly perfected. The management has secured the services of the leading orchestra of the city. This year the excursion will have many features that are new to the excursion world. Chief among these will be the great Marine Bazaar. All arrangements have been made to make of the lower deck one vast fair with all the features that go to make such amusements, things of pleasure. No one can afford to miss this occasion of the season.
Tuskegee, Institute, Ala., May 8th Dr. Robert R. Moton, principal of Tuskegee Inst., announced today that President H. C. King, of Oberlin College, Oberlin, Ohio, had accepted the invitation to deliver the annual commencement sermon on May 23rd, which date marks the beginning of the thirty-ninth anniversary exercises. Dr. W. S. Ellington, pastor of the First Baptist Church, East Nashville, Tenn., will deliver the annual address to the graduating class of Phelps Hall Bible Training School on Monday evening, May 24th.
The exercises will conclude on Thursday, May 27th, at which time the graduating exercises and the annual demonstrations of the industrial departments will be held. Bishop John Hurst of the A. M. E. Church, of Baltimore, Maryland, will deliver the commencement address, on that date. The class of 1910 will hold its reunion and will be represented on the commencement program by J. H. Ward, or Louisville, Ky. Major Allen Washington, commandant of cadets at Hampton Inst., is a visitor here this week, as the guest of Principal and Mrs. Moton.
PROGRAM AT PEKIN THEATRE There will be an excellent program rendered at the Pekin theatre, Sunday May 16, under the management of Mrs. L. Simmons, Mrs. E. W. White and Mrs. Daisy E. Blair. The entertainment will be given in the interest of St. Paul C. M. Echurch. Music will be remiedered by Echpso orchestra. Admission will be: adults, 25c and children 15 cents.
Y. M. C. A. Notes
"Mothers Day" was largely attended, standing room being hard to find speakers' papers, and singing were good. We make special mention of the original poem written for the occasion by Mr. L. W. Sherman. The entertainment at Mrs. M. J. Cade was most excellently attended by the old people and the young people, in fact, there was not room for them. Bear in mind the first Monday night in June, in any oratorio, "Queen Lister," will be presented with all of the warmth and beauty of song and story of the Arabian Nights with beautiful scenery, pretty girls, dazzling costumes and delightful and exquisite music.
J. Walter Moore, who presented this entertainment in Savannah fifteen years ago when but a mere youth, is training the chorus of one hundred voices. The full orchestra is also in active rehearsal for this event. It will be given under the auspices of the A. M. C. A. and directed by Secretary Moore.

Mrs Bell Robinson and Mrs. Phillips presented Pastor Goodall and wife with a beautiful bunch of pink and red carnations as a token of esteem. There were numerous papers from members representing each department of the church. Each person made very timely expressions relating to the excellent service given the church, by pastor Goodall and wife also of the wonderful progress spiritually and financial
by. Sunday was indeed a glorious day. The Sunday school lesson was reviewed by Supt. Ayers after which a short program was rendered in keeping with "Mothers Day." The attendance at the B. Y. P.

NATIONAL NEGRO BUSINESS NOTES
News Notes of Racial Progress Furnished by the Secretary
Special business development among Negroes over that entire country is taking a more progressive aspect every day. Almost, daily, reports coming in from the various local leagues tell of new enterprise being launched, and these enterprises are in new fields as well as in old established lines. New and better methods are being installed and the watch word among the trade is "Ultra-efficiency.
The Wage Farmers Bank of Savannah, Ga., purchase an entire block of buildings at the southwest corner of 135th St. and Seventh Ave. New York, n. general improvement in the property being contemplated. The purchase price was near a quarter of a million.
The Division of Negro Economics of the Department of Labor, Dr. George R. Haynes Director, reports continued results in the organization of building and loan associations throughout the State of Ohio, and an extension of this effort to Tidewater, Virginia.
The Commercial Bank and Trust Company, Richmond, Va., is being promoted under a capitalization of $100, 000.00, surplus, $12,500.00 T. C. Erwin, President.
Mr. John W. Lewis, president of the Industrial Savings Bank of Washington, D. C., is heading up the National Mutual Improvement Association the object of which will be among other things, the financing of worthy business projects that are needed.
The Federal Building and Loan Association of Washington, D. C., is capitalized at $100,000.00 with Mr. J. Edward Rattley, president.
The Universal Development and Loan Company, 512 T St., Washington, D. C., Charles E. Lane, Sr., president, is doing a general real estate and loan business under a capital of $100,000.00 organized in January.
The Monumental Pictures Corporation J. Williams Clifford, President, is capitalized at half a million and proposes to produce super-feature motion pictures to bring about a more thorough understanding and appreciation of Negro Life in America. The corporation is now placing its stock on the market from its headquarters in Washington.
Information from Mr. Roddy, Cashier of the Solvent Savings Bank and Trust Co., Memphis, Tenn., shows that the Cooperative Stores of that city, with fourteen stores in total, operates on a $30,000.00 paid in capital, doing an average monthly business of $30,000.00.
Interest is also being shown in the probable establishment of a Negro bank in Havanna, Cuba. Definite information on this is at present, however, vague.
The Progressive Business Association of Philadelphia, the local league of that city, reports through its secretary Mrs. Sommerville Fauntleroy, that things are getting under way for the entertainment of the National League in that city in August, which meeting promises to be the most important yet held.
The Norfolk Negro Business League, like Chicago, has now a regular established headquarters with a paid secretary in charge.
Atlanta, Ga, has recently revived and reiterated, 200 Auburn Ave., with J. C. Moss, President, and expects to launch an immediate campaign for development. Dr. H. Hoger Williams furnished the "pep" that got it over. The National Negro Business League is now cooperating with the Treasury Department through Mr. William Mathews Lewis, Director of the Savings Division of the War Loan Organization in a "Thrift Drive."

PASTOR SURPRISE
Please allow me space in, your valuable paper to express my many thanks to the members and friends of the first Baptist church of Waycross, Ga., for the many good things that was brought to us Wednesday night May 5th, about 9:30. While I was thinking about stepping off in dream land about fifty indies and gentlemen of the First Baptist church and other friends stepped up on the front porch and made an alarm at the door and on an investigation to find out the cause of the alarm I found a host of friends laden with groceries of all kinds and they marched on through to the, dining groom and unloaded their burdens and I found that they had brought us so many good things to make us happy and money thrown in for good measure. High cost of living! why I shall know nothing of the high cost of living for the next few weeks. I see that these good people here don't intend that their pastor shall be worried about the high cost of living.
I am your humble servant,
Rev. A. R. Starling. D. D.
