Of all exhibitions held in the United States since Philadelphia Centennial in 1776, the Jamestown Ter-Center to be held on the shores and waters of Hampton Roads, near the cities of Norfork, Portsmouth and Newport News, Va., April 26 to Nov. 30, 1907, is to be the most unique, and in originality and novelty will completely eclipse all previous Expositions. The celebration commemorates the most important event in history—the founding of the first English speaking settlement in America, at Jamestown, Va., in 1607, where Captain John Smith and a small party of colonists established a village from which has grown America, with nearly one hundred million population. The celebration will show the remarkable position attained by the United States in history and education, together with the marvelous industrial development and commercial expansion during three hundred years. Contemporaneous with the Exposition SEDALIA, MO., MONDAY, NO./EMBER 19, 1906, will be held on the waters of Hampton Roads the greatest naval pageant ever witnessed in the world, in which every type of war vessel from the navies of all foreign nations will participate. Another attractive feature will be the international military encampment in which detachments of troops of European countries will unite with the soldiers of the United States in a series of drills and maneuvers and parades, etc. The site of the Exposition is located within twenty minutes ride of the Tidewater cities of Virginia, reached either by trollly or steamer, and nature has combined with the ingenuity of man in making a beautiful and picturesque spot. The grounds cover more than 400 acres, with two miles of water front facing the greatest waterway in the world, and commands an unsurpassed view of innumerable points of national and historic interest. The scheme of landscape decoration will be novel and elaborate, one of the attractive features being the floral fence which surrounds the ground. It is made of trumpet vines trained on mesh ed wire, intertwined with honey suckle and crimson rambler roses, the effect being an artistic triumph of flowering beauty. More than twenty five exhibit palaces are now nearing completion, comprising Auditorium, Manufacture and Liberal Arts, Mines and Metallurgy, Marine Appliances, Machinery, Food Products, Arts and Crafts, Transportation, Social Economy, etc., in addition to the government and States buildings and pavilions They will be of semipermanent construction and in appointments will excel any similar group of buildings ever erected. In architecture they will all be of the colonial period, forming and appropriate setting to the natural beauties of the environment. Another attractive feature will be the government pleasure pier extending 2,000 feet into Hampton Roads. At either end it will be surmounted with light towers and a working exhibit of wireless telegraphy. The entire structure will be illuminated by thousands of arc and inundescent electric lights, affording an inexcelled view of the naval dislay. Amusements have not been lost sight of, and the "Warpath," covering more than a mile, will offer a diversified class of original novelties. In assembling the exibits, especially those representing the varied industries and the liberal arts the managers of the Exposition have been careful to select only such as show the latest and best attainments in every line of industry. Hence, it will be the first "selective" Exposition ever held in the United States, in which every phrase of commercial and industrial development will be displayed so arranged and classified that visitors may obtain an intelligent understanding of the history and growth of any specific branch of the trades and industries, without the necessity of visiting other buildings to in spect another part of the same exhibit. Many reasons combine to make the celebration the most successful ever attempted, and when President Roosevelt touches an electric button April 26 of next year, signifying the formal opening of the gates, the thousands of visitors will not be disappointed in the wonders and attractions of the Jamestown Ter-Centennial.

During the latter part the campaign for Municipal Judges a disgraceful cartoon appeared in the field, which represented a very black Negro holding court and a scene which greatly reflected on a colored judge pretending to give justice to a white woman on trial in court room full of rough and loudmouthed ignorant Negroes. The issue of this cartoon was evidently intended to make votes of prejudiced whites against Candidate F. L. Barnett and all hands naturally thought it put out by Democrats. However, after the election, Democrat candidates who did not wish the colored people to think they would offer them such an insult, sought to find who was the author of the objectionable picture. It was now traced to one H. G. Herbert, an employee of the City Hall, and a Republican by politics. The matter was brought to the attention of Mayor Dunne, who at once ordered Herbert, suspended and promised to have the matter vigorously investigated and Herbert prosecuted if found guilty. The Mayor declared that no man who was so indecent as to offer such a gross insult to forty thousand of the city's citizens, even in all things did seem fair in politics. And Herbert is not at work and Barnett is judge.— FAYETTE Rev A H Higgs held meeting on the Third Quarter Nov 3rd—4th'06. He delivered three sermons, two came forward for prayer.

The melancholy days have come, the saddest of the year. Of wailing winds, and naked woods, and meadows brown and sere Heaped in the hollows of the grove, the autumn leaves he dead; They rustle to the eddyiny gust, and to the rabbit's tread, Where are the flowers, the fair young flowers, that lately sprang and stood In brighter light and solter airs, a beauteous sisterhood? Alas! they all are in their graves; the gentle race or flowers Are lying in their lowly beds with the fair and good of ours. The rain is falling where they lie, but the cold November rain Calls not from out the gloomy earth the lovely ones again. The wind flower and the violet, they perished long ago, And the brier rose and orchis died amid the summer glow; But on the hill the golden rod, and the aster in the wood, And the yellow sunflower by the brook, in autumn beauty stood, Till fell the frost from the clear old heaven, as falls the plague on men, And the brightness of their smile was gone from upland, glade and glen. And now, when comes the calm, mild day, as still such will come, To call the squirrel and the bee from out their winter home; When the sound of dropping nuts is heard, tho all the trees are still And twinkle in the smoky light the waters of the rill, The south winds search for the flowers whose fragrance late he bore And sighs to find them in the wood and by the stream no more.

Allen and faculty of Lincoln Institute, Jefferson City, Missouri, is directing the minds of the student body of that institution properly, when they pay some special attention to agriculture. The greater part of our people in this state are best suited, by experience and training, for the farm. Our boys, who stick to the farm and apply modern methods in running them, will find that they will be counted among the most reliable, useful and indeendent citizens in every community where they may reside. Our leaders, until recently, put too little stress upon the importance and dignity of this occupation. In fact, in many instances, our former leaders have done more to lead our boys from the farm than to encourage them to stay thereon. By teaching our young men scientific agriculture, as is being done at Lincoln Institute, they will learn that farm life is neither drudgery nor degrading. If our 14,000 men, now engaged in agriculture in this state, will teach their children to love the farm, we will see, in the near future, more happy, independent and ideal homes. Character, self-reliance, prudence, honesty, thrift, personality, soberness and kindred other virtues can best be instilled into the minds of our youth's minds about the farm fireside. We must encourage our boys, whose parents own land, to stick to the farm, unless they have some special aptitude for some other useful line of work. Too many of our boys leave the farm, where they might be manly and independent, to hop bells in hotels, shine shoes about the streets, chase spittoons throughout saloons, shake three in gambling dens, loat the streets and get into other haunts that lead them to eternal damnation. They leave the farm where they may drive their own horses, milk their own cows, feed their own hogs to become servants of others. It is time to teach our boys to quit running all over the land looking for something "easy." To attain success, one must work. They must know what is best for them to undertake. All of our boys cannot be lawyer, doctors, preachers teachers or bankers any more than all white boys or red boys or yellow boys. Majority of all people are agriculturist in some form. Therefore a majority of us must stick to the farm and dignify the farm life by becoming dignified men and women. If other schools in the state will supplement the work, as outlined by Dr. Allen and others at Lincoln Institute, the attention of our future leaders will de directed farmward and the coming decades will note our rapid development with pleasure. FARMERS CONVENTION AT LINCOLN INSTITUTE President Allen and Other Speakers Emphasize the Value of Agricultural Pursuits to the Negro. The Fifth Farmers' Convention in Lincoln Institute was held Friday, November 9, 1906. President Allen's annual address presented a strong plea for agricultural pursuits and its attendant industries as the bedrock for the development of the Negro or any people in its primitIve conditions. Farmer Abram Jackson of Boone county brought an excellent exhibit of agricultural products from his farm, near Brown's station and with farmer Logan of Calloway county gave a very interesting account of his career as a farmer from his humble beginning to the present time. Prof. Damel of the department of Agriculture gave a very valuable talk on the seed corn and illus trated this talk with a chart of his own making that made it possible for all present to understand the purport and trend of his remarks Various counties in the state were represented by students from the same and their agricultural merits of the respective counties were brought forward for discussion. "The American Farm," "Fertilizer," "Garden Products,""were excellent papers read by the following students: Chester Kimbrough, Newton Henderson and Grant Tayes. Humorous selections from Dun bar—"When the corn pone's hot" Anna Harper. "Sign of the times" Edith Millen. "The corn stalk fiddler" William Anderson. Selections by the Institute band, and national airs by the school enlivened the more serious work of convention. A strong set of resolutions was adopted. The officers of the preceding years were reselected as follows: Dr. B. F. Allen, President. Prof. J. W. Damel, Organizer Prof. J. S. Moten Chairman of Resolutions Com. Prof. J, S. Yates Secretary The following resolutions were adopted: Lincoln Institute, Jefferson City. Mo., Nov. 10, 1906. To the President and Members of the Fourth Farmers' Convention: We, your committee, submit that, Whereas, a State is given relative standing and importance in the catalog of states, not by its population alone, but by its aggregate wealth made up, in the main, of its mineral, agricultural, horticultural and live stock productions, and Whereas, Missouri, for this, stands fifth in the United States; and of its population there are 161,234 Negroes, increasing at the rate of 8 per cent per decade, and Whereas, There are 13,615 Negroes (male) engaged in agricultural pursuits, 58 of whom' are gardeners, nursery-men, florists, and 27 stock raisers, herdsmen, and drovers. 1. That this convention declare very emphatically its determination, to double its efforts to create renewed interest in agricultural pursuits, on the of the Negroes of this state, as the occupation of greatest independence and widest freedom, increased longevity and least opposition. 2. That we encourage land owning as the greatest impulse to having better homes, more attractive front yard, more sanitary back yards, more comfortable barns and more substantial fences. 3. That we give our attention to the turning of the boys and girls from their steady march to the cities and towns, by making the country homes more sacred and cheerful by good sanitation thereabout, good books, magazines and newspapers, which are made more accessible by free rural mail delivery. 4. That we make the rural community more desirable, by employing/capable and moral teachers and preachers; by keeping our children in school during the school term, and attending, with them, the churches, which is the best means of keeping the family together and avoiding idle moments, so conducive to mischief and crime. 5. That Lincoln Institute under Pres. B.F. Allen, has increased her usefulness to the entire people of the state by the utress and time which it gives to horticulture, Industrial Training and to Domestic Science, thereby preparing competent workers and Cor.

Chicago, Nov. 8.—Chicago is just awakening to the realization of what it means to have a Negro judge, and the howl of protest which began Wednesday gained in crescendo when it was announced that Frederick L. Barnett. the judge in question, would not be assigned exclusively to the trial of cases involving persons of his own race. "This is not a 'Jim Crow' court' declared Chief Justice Olsen, of the new municipal court. "I shall assign Mr. Barnett, where I think he will do the most good." Barnett was elected to a two year term as municipal judge as a Republican, despite the fact that he ran 30,000 votes below the home makers.
