Church, Sunday, October 25 —Twelve Deserving Captains Lead Their Armies to Victory The work of the valiant workers of Taylor Chapel M. E. church last Sunday will stand in the history as a premium for raising money in a short time, for years. Rev. Richard Davis, the excellent and able leader of this flock of Christian workers, began this battle of a new church rally about three weeks ago last Sunday, and in so doing, he named twelve captains, who were to organize their armies and battle to raise the largest sum for this rally day, last Sunday. The tight began early—without delay—and the town was haunted from one end to the other by these captains and their workers. Socials, suppers, concerts, entertainments and prizes were given during this battle, and also trolley parties—everything that was honorable was done by these workers to raise the money. All last Agric Sunday each captain and their secretaries were busy collecting in their donations until the winding up that night, and after each had reported the results of her battle, the grand total was over three hundred dollars. The following are the names of the captains and the actual amount paid to the board of trustees for the new church: Mrs. Rev. R. Davis..... $57.49 Mrs. Rev. Densmore..... 35.00 Mrs. Maude Travis..... 33.05 Rev. R. Davis..... 31.14 Mrs. M. B. Smith..... 29.95 Mrs. Rev. Bishop..... 26.11 Mrs. Florence Cadwill..... 24.30 Mrs. W. H. Carter..... 23.35 Mrs. Julia Nelson..... 18.52 Mrs. Anna Wright..... 16.28 Mrs. A. G. Wheeler..... 15.00 Mrs. T. P. Moffette..... 13.01 Cash received ..... $322.22 Which is the largest sum ever raised in Taylor Chapel or any other church among the colored people of Sedalia for years The church was filled with the many friends who were anxious to hear of the results, and when the total was announced, the audience burst forth with many cheers for such a victory lead by SEDALIA MISSOURI, OCTOBER 31 1903 our pastor and his able workers. The prize doll which was given away by Mrs. Mattie Carter, was awarded to the little Brown girl. The prize cake awarded by Mrs. Travis was sold at Warfield's restaurant. W. H. Huston, Pres. W. H. Carter, Sec. —Trustee Board. Rev. R. Davis, MORGAN STREET BAP TIST CHURCH FAIR. The Blue Ribbon Club of the Morgan Street Baptist church, under the careful management of Mrs. Rev. Mack, Mrs. Anna Hurdle and Mrs. Lillie Kenney, held a very successful fair all week. The church was beautifully decorated in every department and an excellent program was rendered each night. Thursday night was the banner night, which consisted of an address by Ex-Mayor P. D. Hastain, followed by Jno. Ramsey, president of the literary society. A solo was then rendered by Miss Emma Drake, followed by recitations by Mrs. Kinney and Lady Kinney. Afterwards the drill of a number of small girls in robes was had, under the management of Mrs. Kinney. These little girls made an excellent showing and gave much credit to the church, themselves and their instructor, and was well worthy of a larger audience. The Queen City band ren- culture bui derd a short musical concert every night, which added greatly to the affair. This FAIR has been continued until Monday night on account of the rainy weather.

It’s sometimes good to change your opionin, is’nt it brother. The Negro voters has an import ant part to play inthe next cam- paign, beginning with our local city affairs and concluding with state and national election, The question now is, what are Sedalia Negroes and the Negro voters of Central Missouri doing to prepare themselves for the fight, so as to be able to make themselve felt and to benefit themselves as a race. Other cities like St Louis. Kan- sas City and St Joseph has Negro clubs and leagues organized, and are working for success of the re- publican party and the Negro’s in- est in their city. Why can’t old Sedalia with her hundreds ot Ne- groes fall in and organize. Yes, why cant the thousands of Negro voters of Central Missouri organ- d pane togethee, and dc their duty for the suecess of Koos yelt, Bothwell and their race.
