Will President Harding Fail Us? PRESIDENT REFUSES TO EIMINATE Negroes Not To Be Appointed to Positions Requiring Senate Confirmation.
Washington, D. C., June 15th (Associated Negro Press)—"Will President Harding fail us?" That is the very serious question that is being asked by everyone interested in political progress. It is being asked by no less persons than Col Henry Lucien Johnson, Republican National Committeeman from Georgia, and Robert L. Church, well known business man and political wizard of Tennessee. It is also being asked by their political associates and the newspapers of the race from one end of the country to the other.
There's no desire to see the President fall his 12,000,000 colored American constituency, that backfilled him unanimously in his election. In fact, numbers of letters are coming to leaders in Washington stating that religious denominations are holding prayer meetings, in the cities and back in the villages, and the hills and mountains, praying that President Harding may be given courage to stand up to the high sentiments of justice expressed in his many public addresses. The people with nothing less, and, even in the words of Henry Lincoln Johnson, "we certainly can endure nothing less."
The whole trouble is bound up in the policy of recognition. Colored Americans are insisting that all citizens be recognized absolutely on merit. Very active elements in the South are urging the President to "classify" the Negro, and that means to eliminate and segregate.
The President, it is said, refuses to eliminate, but that he is lending a listening, if not sympathetic car to the plan of segregation. This information may strike the colored Americans out the country with amazement, but The Associated Negro Press learns this from high authority.
The situation at present may be stated:
First: There will be no appointment of colored Americans to office in the southern states.
Fourth: There will be appointments of ments of colored Americans to presidential offices, that is, offices that require the confirmation of the United States Senate.
Third: There will be no appointment of a colored Register of the United States Treasury, Recorder of Ideals or any other similar offices formerly held by colored Republicans.
Fourth. There will be appointments of a number of prominent colored Americans to prominent places in various departments, as many as twenty or more places, that do not require Senate confirmation. Such appointments will have salaries attached amounting to $5,000 or more, and will have the approval of President Harding.
Colored Leaders' Oppose
This program of policy does not meet the approval of colored Americans, and President Harding is being respectfully informed of the facts. "We don't want ' jobs, we want ' positions,'" declared Col. Johnson. "It does not matter to us if the jobs named have salaries, with the wealth of Shylack, it is a matter of principle, and we must justice.
"On this matter of principle," continued Col. Johnson, "We want the position of Registrar of the Treasury. If the protest of a few women can keep us from this place, a similar protest can keep us from any place that may be given. It cannot only keep us from places of employment, but from civil justice everywhere. This we must unalterably oppose, with the help of Almighty God."
A Step Backward
It is stated that if President Harding pursues this policy it will be a step backward, even farther than Taft and Woodrow Wilson. It is argued that Taft appointed a number of men to federal positions requiring Senate confirmation. It is stated that even Woodrow Wilson named a colored man for Register, of the Treasury, even tho he later withdrew the name and placed
BISHOPS COUNCIL OPEN THURSDAY CITIZENS TENDER BANQUET BEFORE OPENING
Chicago, Ill., June 15th (Associated Negro Press)—The Bishops' Council of the African Methodist Episcopal church opens Thursday morning June 13 in Mother Bethel. Sixteen bishops will be in attendance. Two Bishops, namely Brooks and Vernon, are absent in Africa and Bishop C. T. Tanner is ill in Philadelphia. Wednes day night preceding the opening of the Council, citizens of Chicago will tender a complimentary banquet at Quinn Chapel. Addresses of welcome will be made by Gor, Small, Mayor Wm. Hale Thompson, Bishop A. J. Carey and Major R. R. Jackson. Bishop L. J. Coppi, presiding bishop of the Fourth Episcopal district will be host to the Bishop's Council. Besides the bishops there will be in attendance 15 general officers, 22 college presidents and about 400 presiding elders and pastors. Sunday, June 20th each pulpit in Chicago will be filled by a Bishop. The Bishops' Council meets biennially for the purpose of conferring over work of past 6 months and planning the work of the ensuing 6 months to insure harmony and uniformity of act.
RESOLUTION PASSED BY
HOUSE OF DELEGATES
Boston, Mass., June 15th (Associated Negro Press-The House of delegates of the American Medical Association last Wednesday passed a resolution to the effect that members of the medical profession should remember that they are physicians, not bartenders.
That the President is not in favor of appointing any colored person to any office where he will come in contact with or be "over" white employee, is being stated by those close to him.
This policy if carried out, will have a sickening effect on the party in the elections for 1922, so far as colored Republicans are concerned. Robert K. Church, who has been regarded as an Administration-spokesman, has let it be known among friends that he will assume no position of "pussyfooting", double-crossing or compromise. He has stated that he will absolve himself of all responsibility if this attitude is assumed as Administration policy. In this position he is being backed practically unanimously by all political leaders.
A number of Congressmen and United States Separators who have large numbers of colored voters, have gone to President Harding, urging him of the importance of heeding the protests of the people.
Systematic efforts to prevent the confirmation of Frank A. Linney as United States Attorney for the Western District of North Carolina has begun. Every Senator has received by mail a pamphlet entitled "Copy of Protest Against the Linney Nomination." It was signed by five prominent Negroes of North Carolina, headed by Bishop G. W. Clinton.
The protest quotes a letter from Linney, written during the campaign "To The Women of North Carolina," which contains these statements;
"The Republican Party has not made efforts to organize Negroes in this campaign, nor will it conceive at such political strategy. If we carry the State you will have a strictly white government. The Republican Party's policy will be to let the Negro stay out of politics. If the Democratic organization will meet us half way, we are in a fair position to eliminate any possibility of the Negro question in this or any subsequent campaign."
In arguing the candidate's unfitness to the President the committee says:
"Mr. Linney has declared over his signature he was willing to enter a combination to deny us this great fight. If during his incumbency occasion should arise where the rights of colored people were involved, how could he do otherwise than either by silence acquiesce in their disfranchise or by positive action make the amendments to the Federal Constu-
SAVANNAH, GÁ., SATURDAY JUNE 18.1321
$2,000,000 IN PROPERTL WAS OSS
White Clergy Sanction Horrible Program
Tulsa, Okla., June 15th (Associated Negro Press)—The Tulsa riot was wilfully planned. An excuse for starting the horror was given by a foolish Negro lad and a silly, irresponsible white girl. Result: more than 200 whites killed and wounded while the casualties among the Negroes amounted to about 60 people, all told. Property losses were confined wholly to "Little Africa" and amount to more than 2,000,000.
Completion of an $85,000 church was the straw which broke the camel's back of prejudice and made ready for the consummation of a plot that can be regarded the most diabolically fendish in the history of the United States. To this chapter of horrors can be added the outspoken declaration to lychn J. B. Stradford and James Smitherman, two of the more prominent Negro business men of Tulsa, 'should they be so bold as to show their faces in our midst again.' Stradford and Smitherman were among the few leaders who managed to escape the clutches of the mob.
Even the white clergy were among those who gave sanction to the horrible program of wholesale destruction of property and attempted general slaughter of men whose only crime was a determined effort to prosper and live decently. This statement is given force and color by the facts that the business section and the better residential district in "Little Africa" were the first places to feel the forked tougue of the torch. "Had there been no effort to lift "Little Africa" out of the slimy conditions of a slunt district there would have been no riot," declared an intelligent Negro to the Associated Negro Press representative.
Bishop Mouzon of the Methodist church, South, the Rev. C. W. Kerr of the First Presbyterian church and the Rev. Harry G. Cooke of the Centenary M. E. church, last Sunday, declared from their pulpits, that the colored people were wholly responsible for the horrors of the riot. Bishop Mouzon went so far as to announce that William B. DuBois' recent visit and talks to Tulsa Negroes was one of the contributing causes of the riot. He averred that the Negro must not presume to compete with the white man nor seek to rise out of the economic and social situations in which the whites are determined to keep him. A violation of this edict was sure to visit on the Negro the reprisals of race riots whenever it occurred. Cooke and Kerr were no less outspoken in their denunciations of the Tulsa Negro's aspirations to approach the social and economic levels of the Tulsa whites.
Smitherman's whereabouts have not been discovered up to this date. Stradford, however, was located in Independence, Kansas, and an effort to extradiate him was frustrated by his son, G. E. Stradford, a Chicago lawyer, who succeeded in getting his father out of the hands of the Kansas authorities thus the processes of a Habeas Corpus proceedings. The elder Stradford has not been since located. Should either of these men be brought to Tulsa a lynching bee would surely be added to the awful list of horrors that have already visited this benighted place.
In the meantime there is a group of white citizens who are desirous that restitution be provided for the Negroes by rebuilding and replacing their personal losses at whatever cost. While this offer appears to be bona fide if seems to be qualified by presenting a plan which will move the colored people from the occupancy of the district that was so want only destroyed. The answer of the colored people to this plan has not yet been given. It is not short they will be given much choice in the matter.
The graduating exercises of Charity Hospital Training School for Nurses was postponed from last Wednesday night to next Wednesday night June 22nd. The inclement weather of last Wednesday night has made this change necessary.
HOWARD UNIV. ERECT BUILDING
PLANS PREPARED BY UNIVERSITY TYS OWN ARCHITECTS
Washington, D. O. June 16th (Associated Negro Press)—Ground Breaking for the new Home Economics Building to be erected by the Howard University took place on the University Campus at 12:145 o'clock the afternoon of Tuesday, June 7th, 1921. Each member of the Board of Trustees turned a spade of dire. A simple program of exercises was followed and the University R. O. T. C. Band played the Howard Alma Mater and several other selections. Dr. S. Stanley Durkee, President of the University, presided and Dr. Emmett J. Scott Secretary-Treasure, reported the Congressional action providing $201,000 for the erection of the building.
Dr. Scott stated that the preliminary plans for the new Dining Hall and Homo Economic building have been submitted to the Department of the Interior and have been approved. The final plans are to be submitted shortly and it is expected that bids will have been accepted and the construction of the building begun not later than July 15th. It is hoped that it will be ready for dedication and occupancy during the early part of the next school year. The building will be modern in all of its appointments. The University authorities asked permission of the Interior. Department that the plans for the new building might be prepared by its own architects, consent being given the plans were so prepared by William A. Hazel and Albert I. Cassell, both architects and instructors of the school.
The building will has fireproof in construction through, of steel, brick and concrete. The exterior will be red brick of broken tones and rough texture with trimmings in limestone. The floors will be of steel and concrete The architectural style adopted is "Colonial," style of the more important existing buildings. The dining hall by reason of its large dimensions will be the dominating feature of the interior and finds its expression on the exterior by the large arcade of semicircular windows. The three floors have a combined area of 225,000 square feet and a cable content of nearly 600,000 guble feet. It will be steam heated and electrically lighted thrust and will cost $201,000 when finished and furnished. The trustees were Rev. Chris. H. Richards of N. Y. city; Mr Roffe Cobleigh, Boston Mass; Col. Theodore Roosevelt, Washington; Rev. Ulysses G. B. Pierce, Washington; Dr. J. E. Moorland, New York city; Bishop John Hurst, Baltimore; Dr. Wm. A. Sinclair, Philadelphia; Dr. Marcus F. Wheatland, New R.I.; Mr Andrew F. Hifter, Washington; Mr Wm. V. Cox, Washington, D. C.; Dr. J. H. N. Waring, Hopkinton, Mass.; and Hon. J. C. Napler, Nashville, Tenn.
"DANGEROUS TENDENCIES"
BROUGHT TO LIGHT
Looters Are Great Testimony to Primal Passions of Greed and Gain
New York, June 15th (Associated Negro Press)—William Pickens, the noted colored outfit and publicist speaks of the "dangerous tendencies" brought to light by the Tulsa, riot. Among other things he said in a recent interview:
"Several dangerous tendencies are noticeable in that Tulsa affair; there were white looters, whose chief Inspiration was to steal the goods and effects of the driven Out Negroes; and the benevolent(?) committee offered to rebuild the homes of the colored people but in a different section of the city, selected by the committee.
"If these looters are not severely punished, and if this committee is allowed to "more" the colored population to the section where it is willing for them to live, it will furnish one of the most subtle and powerful inducements to mob violence against colored people. If to burn out the "Negro section" will make it possible for the whites to rob and plunder and then dispossess them, it will add some powerful influences to the tendency to such violence. We can list in our mind many places where the Negro quarter would be gladly set fire to on tomorrow, if certain interests could be sure that it would result in the removal of the Negroes.
"These looters are a great testimony to the primal beastly passions of greed and gain that play their part in these programs; and it is the very irony of kindness to offer to rebuild the homes of the colored population elsewhere.
MASONIC GRAND
LODGE MEET
IN AMERICUS
TO CONVENE NEXT WEEK
Will Be Fifty-First Annual Communication.
Next week Americus will be the mecca for the representatives of the 30,000 Masons in Georgia. The occasion will be the fifty-first annual communication of the Most Worshipful Union Grand Lodge of Ancient Free and Accepted Masons.
Last year the grand lodge met in Savannah when the Golden Anniversary was celebrated. The communication this year will be as interesting as ever.
Along with the Grand Lodge the Royal Arch Grand Chapter and John H. Dereaux Commandery K. T. will also meet. The Grand Commandery under J. H. Walker will convene Monday morning, and the Royal Arch will meet in the afternoon presided over by Grand, High Priest J. H. Kendall. Each of these organizations has grown wonderfully and will have large gatherings.
The Grand Lodge will convene Tuesday at 9 o'clock, and Most Worshipful Grand Master H. I. Butler, M. D., will preside. The attendance will be one of the largest ever had. Under the guidance of Grand Master Butler, the Grand Lodge has had permanent growth. In the state there are 51 warranted lodges and about twenty-four working under dispensation. Among the features of the Grand Lodge is the commodius orphan home in Americus where many orphan boys and girls have been molded into useful men and women. This home is being conducted by Prof. and Mrs. S. S. Humbert. The Relief Association of the Grand Lodge is the best of any connected with grand lodges. Under the effort, and faithful labor of Mr. W. C. Thomas, its sectary treasurer, it will report a balance of about $222,000 with all claims and expenses paid. Both the Grand Lodge and Orphan Home departments will report an aggregate collection of nearly $10,000 for the past year.
The Masons all over the state will rejoice in this great showing and work the harder for the continued success of the order.
The members all over the state are hearty in their expression of loyalty and love for the Grand Master and officers of the Grand Lodge for their earnest and hard labor for the great progress that has been shown.
The representatives from Savannah will leave Monday morning at 7:30 o'clock over the Seaboard 'Air Line.
Tulsa, Okla., June 15th (Associated Negro Press)—Homes for thousands of Negroes made destitute by the race rioting here last week will be rebuilt by Tulsa business men, but a general plan of reconstruction was still being sought by members of the citizens' committee of welfare named for that purpose. The Negroes will profit in one respect, for the business' interests of the city are determined that a better, and more sanitary district will be erected. Some prominent men object to rearing a new Negro settlement on the ashes of the area destroyed and suggest that land be bought in the northern section of the city, where homes could be built with a view to city planning.
Judge L. J. Martin, chairman of the committee, declared his belief that 1,000 Tulsa men should volunteer each to build a Negro a home. He said it would require not more than $1,000 for a home. The relief work among the colored people has been thoroughly organized and most of the refugees have left the detention camp at the fair grounds.
E. W. Langston, formerly of Brunswick, Ga. state superintendent of the Liberty Mutual Life and Health Insurance Company, the only Negro industrial insurance company in Ga. which made an increase for the year 1920, has moved his headquarters to Savannah, Ga. He is an insurance genius, and has very efficiently served his company every since its birth.
FRENCH OFFICIAL COLORED TROOPS
Commander-In-Chief Appreciate Bravery of Colored Soldiers
Washington, D. C., June 15th (Associated Negro Press)—An official of the French Government now in the United States has sent to Dr. Emmett J. Scott, former Special Assistant to the Secretary of War, the following statement which he has just received from Paris:
*Before the colored Senegalese troops left the Rhine district for Asia Minor, on May 29th, 1920, one year ago, General Degoutte, one of the most famous French leaders, of the Great War, commander in chief of the French forces in the Rhine Provinces, issued the following message. The Senegalese Brigade leaves, the French Army of the Rhine, called forth to an important mission on a point of exterior operation. I regret to see the departure of these elite soldiers I was often able to appreciate their bravery, at first in our colonies, later during the war.
"Always and everywhere, the Senegalese have shown themselves worthy of their glorious fame; the conquest and pacification of the African middle zone, of Madagascar and of Morocco, Dixmude, the Dardanelles, the Somme, the Alsne, Verdun and the Avre, are their titles of herolism.
"Tara the cordiality, the simplicity, the kindness, which, they have proved in dealing with the population of the occupied district, they have obtained the sympathy of all those who ap proclaimed them. We have testimonies which make it plain.
The odious propaganda against everything which is French does not leave them. They can proudly oppose the cleanliness of their lives, the high sentiment of their duties as citizens and as soldiers, their glorious past, to the perilous illness of people who for get too easily the horrors of which they have become guilty in Africa as well as in France and in Belgium. I salute their flag, quite new but already bright with glory."
COUNTERFEITER NAMED BY
SECRET SERVICE AGENT
Ocala; Fla., June 15th (Associated Negro Press)—A clever Negro counterfeiter who has given government operatives worlds of trouble for more than three years has been caught by secret service agents in Ocala, Fla., according to information received at Atlanta head quarters of the service last Monday. He is Roy S. Dorser, of Ocala, who possesses, according to government lethuna, uncommon ability for transforming $1.00 bills into ten spots, and who, they charge, has flooded the southern states with bogus bills for a long period. Secret Service Agent H. B. Arnold, of the Atlanta office, nabbed the man on a train a few miles out of Ocala last Friday, he reported, while the Negro was paying his fare with a fake $10.00 bill. Mr. Arnold arrested him and forced him to show him to his Ocala home. There the agent reported he uncovered a complete count, ferreting outfit. The man admitted his guilt, the agent said, and was logged in fail in Ocala, to await trial in United States court on various counterfeiting charges—some dating as far back as 1015.
ATTACKED BY CROWD
Chicago, Ill., June 15th (Associated Negro Press)—Dr. Elbert R. Robinson, colored, who filed suits last year charging infringements on a car, wheel patent that ran into millions, is in trouble again. On the strength of the suits it is estimated he borrowed around $500,000, promising to pay back approximately 14,000 per cent "when the suits were settled." Several days ago Deputy Marshall Samuel Howard and Frank Campbell tried to serve a bankruptcy subpoena on Robinson on State street near 1st and were attacked by a crowd of Robinson's friends, who beat them.
But he left his two cars behind, one of them worth about $10,000, and trimmed in gold. It is believed he will come back to claim this idol of his heart. When he does he will be placed in a cell, with about seventeen others charged with attacking the marshals.
Action On Representation Taken REPORT OF COMMITTEE ADOPTED "Link" Johnson.. Makes Impassionate Plea For Rejection of Certain Portoins.
Washington, D. C., June 15th (Associated Negro Press)—More than 200 colored Americans, from every section of the United States where the race lives in large numbers, were present at the meeting of the Republican National Committee, in the New Willard Hotel, where action on representation in Republican National Conventions was taken.
The action was preceded by extended discussion, opened by National Committeeman H. L. Remmel, of Little Rock, Ark., and National Committeeman Henry Lincoln Johnson, of Atlanta, Ga. Mr. Johnson made an impassioned plea for reflection of that portion of the sub-committee report which requires at least 2,500 votes in a congressional district before a delegate to the convention is permitted. He recited the history of Republican and Democratic politics in the South, and described the difficulty with which southern voters reach the polls. He said: "If there is to be any cutting down, let it begin in Congress. We should not be penalized for not doing that which is beyond our Control." Secretary of the National Committee Clarence B. Miller, of Minnesota and National Committeeman R.-R. Howell of Omaha, Neb., spoke for the full adoption of the report. Robert B. Church, of Memphis, Tenn., sat in the meeting with the proxy of George Wingfield, of New. The room in which the meeting was held was taxed to capacity.
Report of Committee.
The report of the sub-committee was finally adopted by a vote of thirty six, with twelve against, after unsuccessful efforts to amend. The report follows:
Your Sub-committee appointed pursuant to the resolutions passed by the last Republican National Convention and by this committee at its meeting in Chicago, June 5, 1920, having fully considered the condition of the Republican Party with particular reference to the features mentioned in the resolutions, hereby recommend that the following rules be adopted:
First-Only legal and qualified voters shall participate in a Republican primary, caucus, mass meeting, or mass convention, held for the purpose of selecting delegates to a county, district or state convention. Only such legal and qualified voters shall be elected as delegates to county, district and state conventions.
Second-The next Republican National Convention, and also conventions thereafter until otherwise ordered, shall be composed of delegates as follows:
(A) Delegates-at-large
(1) Four Delegates-at-large from each state.
(2) Two additional Delegates-at-large, for each Representative-at-large from any state.

we are sad, your beloved, because you left us.

It was a bitter pain, a shock severe.
To part with one that we loved so dear
But there is no pain in that fair land,
Life, joy and peace go hand in hand
And we know that you are waiting to
Welcome those that you left so broken hearted here.

Was it for naught we gave our lives.

INDULGING THE MOB
There is no possibility of re-establishing law and order in Georgia so long as mobs are allowed to search jails, invited or indulged by officers of the law, so as to 'quiet and appease' (as they say) the enraged "citizens." This practice may be an expedient for the time and place, but it encourages mob violence by, impressing the mob with its power, it puts law and order in the attitude of recognizing and treating the lawlessness and the mob spirit and it admits that the mob is a community force with a dignity sufficient to entitle it to recognition. There is no way to avoid this conclusion. We cannot deceive ourselves in to anything else. It is a plain compromise with lawlessness.
The Moultrie-Auterville mob has already searched four jails, and with the permission of the jailors. And upon this theory of dealing with the mob, there is no reason why it may not go the rounds of all the jails in Georgia, searching them in turn, for some man accused of the horrible crime recently committed in that section, while every one of us, including the jailors, know that wheather the "accused" is guilty or not he is going to be lynched, riddled with bullets, and perhaps burned at the stake.
Don't we all know that the very first, Negro to be caught by the mob will be lypched? Can't we judge from the horrifying history of past mobs in Georgia, in and around Moultrie and elsewhere, just exactly what is going to happen when the first suspect is caught? Can't we judge from the fact that the mob is already beating and whipping and shooting innocent men and women, burning their homes and churches? Don't we know that hun dreds of black men and women and children are running in terror thru the swamps and the woods now for fear of their lives?
Temporize with the mob in Georgia for a little while longer and we are going to have a condition in this state which will eclipse Russia and Armenia in ruthless disregard of law and constituted authority.
And we are temporizing, all over the state, with mobs and the mob-spirit; we are playing with a consuming fire, which at any time may get beyond control, and which has already devastated the state; depriving the moral quality of one part of the people, and driving terror and death into the hearts and souls of the other.
Mobs are "unlawful assemblies" before the law in view of their lawless history, and should not be allowed to form; or having formed should be summarily dispersed or jailed.
TWO DIE ON THE GALLOWS
Two paid the death penalty Friday, June 3rd, both dying protesting their innocence with their last expiring breath, namely, Isarel Waters and Lemon Wright, alias Shorty Ford. Israel Waters was sentence at Clide, Ga., Bryan Co., and was brought here for safe keeping. Shorty Ford was sentenced here in the last term of court
Three weeks before their execution, neither professed faith in Lord Jesus Christ. On 6th of May, through invitation of Rev. J S Wilder, we visited the jail and became their spiritual advisor. Our first advice was a full confession of crime for which they were charged and sentenced, stating to them whether they were guilty or not, God was willing to forgive them, if they would truthfully confess their sins. Both of them declared their innocence and held out to the last moment.
After much praying, singing teaching the Bible and persuading them, they accepted Jeuss Christ as their personal savior and were baptised by Bers. J. L. Dudley, pastor of Union Baptist church, and myself. We kept up our visits to them, encouraging and strengthening them in the faith as the time drew near for their execution. Thursday, June 2nd, we spent most of the day with them. At 4 p.m. Israel Waters was carried back to Clyde
Because Lawyer Baughn believed fully in Shorty's innocence, he wanted him to have a Christian burial and gave a check for $52.00 and $15.00 worth of cut flowers. Mrs. Annie Orrer Whitmire gave him a burial place in their family lot. His funeral was held from Mt. Tabor Baptist church, Saturday at 4 p.m., more than 1500 persons viewing the body.
His history—His mother died when he was 6 months old and he was reared by an aunt who is very intelligent. He attended Morris Brown College through 9th grade, but feeling he ought help in his upkeep he went to work. At the time of his execution he was a boy not yet out of his teen. Every one who has had close touch with him, believes him innocent. These are the facts as I know and see them.
THE PULPIT EN-
DORSES EVERYWOMAN
The Pulpit, the Press, and the Public have all been loud in their praise of Everywoman which Butter Presbyterian church presents at Municipal Auditorium on Monday, June 27th at 8:30 p. m.

Eureka Day at Beach Hammock on Wednesday was a big success. From mid-day up to the scheduled time for the annual excursion of the Eureka Aid and Athletle Club to get on its way it was evident that the attendance would be larger than that of any social club that has gone down the river this season. From all parts of the city you could see followers of this popular organization wending their way to the water front to take in the afternoon outing. The result was, more than 000 people took advantage of the opportunity and spent Wednesday afternoon at Beach Hammock. The arrangements for the big day were in the hands of a hustling committee, which was headed by John A. Gaudsen as chairman and Chas. Squire as assistant chairman. The committee feels grateful to those who attended. The Eureka club is one of the foremost civic organizations of city and its entertainments are usually looked forward to with much pleasure.

Mrs. Annie Willis Blackshear died in New York City, May 11, after an illness of a few weeks. It was quite a shock to her many friends. She was given all medical attention, but nothing could be done and she passed away just as calm as could be. Mrs. Blackshear has resided in New York for three years. She was a member of the Four Leaf Clover Club which attended her funeral in a body. The funeral was held from the parlor of Rocherike and Yates and was largely attended in spite of the inclement weather, Dr. W. K. Lawton officiating. Mrs. Blackshear was a loyal woman and always abounding in the work of the Lord. She was survived by a husband and three children, Mr. Nathan A. Blackshear, mother, Mrs Rosa, Willis, two sisters, Mrs. Mary J. Thompson and Mrs. Josephine Miles; one aunt of New York City, Mrs. Georgia Cross; one uncle, Mr. Samuel Hayward; two cousins, Mr. Geo.

MR. AND BROWN ENTERTAIN
The home of Mr. and Mrs. J. Clarence Brown was the scene last Monday night of one of the most beautiful social gatherings of the season, the occasion being a party given in honor of Mrs. Florence Pinckney of Washington, D. C., who left for her home Thursday night. A program of unusual interest contributed to the making of the evening one of unforgettable enjoyment. One lively feature of the entertainment was a novel magazine art advertisement contest in which every one present took part. The exciting race for the prize, a beautiful note book, resulted in a tie between Miss Carrie Green, Miss Marlon Hood and Miss Irina Curley. This was deciled by drawing straws, Miss Carrie Green drawing the lucky straw. At this point the program took a decidedly musical and literary turn. Solos were rendered by Miss Mittle Grant, Miss Carrie Green and Mrs. Martha Ginn. A recitation was rendered by Miss Willie Grant. After this a number of unusual games were introduced by Miss Mattle Victory. The evening's festivities were brought to a close after the guests had been served with refreshments. Among those present were Mrs. Florence Pinckny, the guest of honor, who was presented with a lovely token; Miss Mattle Victory, Miss Florida Tate, Mrs. Lilla Palge, Jesse Fisher, Miss Willie Grant, James Edwards, Mrs. Hattie Clarke, Dr. and Mrs. J.
