EDITOR OF CONSERVATOR:→ Please allow me a small space in your valuable columns. It is a pleasure of mine to have something to say about a mam (not withstanding it is a little late) who has been to our city in an official capacity. By the unanimous action of Flora Lodge No. 15 K. of P. I was directed to send to the Conservator our official or gan a few statement regarding the official visit of Grand Lecturer F. J. Brown. He is one in his official capacity who does things efficiently and strictly business like. As per previous announcement, he came to our city on the morning of the 18th ult; and delivered a lecture on Pythianism that no previous effort by any one in his capacity or out of it has ever equated. The historical recital of that beautiful and unparalleled story of Damou and Pythias was superb Oftimes in his flights of oratory, the point of sublimity was reached. It was grand- it was magnificent. His exemplification of the secret work in the school of instruction showed his superiority over all Negro Pythians in the jurisdiction and his capability of meeting any who has been initiated into the mysteries of the Pythian order. His imittable way of proceeding with his work is an element of consideration of importance. The instructions given here will redound to much good to all true Pythians. Many new ideas were left that are permanent fixtures with the loyal knight. His examination of the accounts had all the critical features and business like elements characteristic of an expert in that line. Brown is the only one who has shown the real importance or significance of that office. It was a nominal office until the Grand Lodge shouldered the responsibilities on him. Flora Lodge is to a man for Brown for the third term because she knows he has made out of the office what it is. The heights have been attained through him. Long live! F. J. Brown.

RETIRED NAVAL LIEUTENANT IS RETIRED NAVAL LIEUTENANT IS MADE DEFENDANT IN SUIT. Berlin. May 4. (Copyright, 1907)—A remarkable case is soon to come up for trial. For the first time in the history of German jurisprudence a negro is suing a white man. "Prince" Ludwig Paul Opundo of the Kameruns has brought suit against Heinrich Liersemann, a retired naval lieutenant. The suit is libel. Articles written by Liersemann charged the prince with being an inferior individual, a convicted thief and with attempting to play a false role in various places in Germany, particularly in Keil. It was asserted for example that at a ball given in honor of the prince by a certain countess several high naval officers declared that they would leave if he remained. Liersemann also related that while the prince was playing tennis with "several high-born ladies" an admiral who was present declared that he would leave at once "if the Negro remained." Liersemann related that the prince when 9 years of age, was THE CONSTITUTION LEAGUE'S TALION ENDORSED BY MAS A CLARION CALL TO ARMS HEADQUARTERS SOLDIER COMMIS THE CONSTITUTION LEAGUE'S DEFENSE OF BLACK BAT TALION ENDORSED BY MASSACHUSETTS COMMITTEE. A CLARION CALL To ARMS—SUSTAIN THE APPEAL. HEADQUARTERS SOLDIERS' DEFENSE FUND COMMITTEE. Boston, Mass., April, 1907.—Recognizing the unlawful discharge of the "Black Battalion" of the Twentyfifth U. S. Infantry by the Chief Executive of the U. S. as another blow at the Constitutional rights of American citizens, "The Constitution League of the United States" has of its own volition taken up the fight of the discharged soldiers and supported the Hon. Joseph Itenson Foraker, Senator from Ohio, in his splendid effort to maintain Constitutional rights for American citizens. We, the members of the committee for the "Soldiers' Defense Fund" of Massachusetts, heartily endorse the appeal issued by "The Constitutional League" for funds to carry on this great work of constitutionally establishing the rights of American citizens, regardless of race, creed or color. We do hereby urge the members of our race to form committees by public mass meetings or otherwise and to raise funds to help "The Constitution League." We especially appeal to the editors of colored newspapers to publish gratis, and as possible, this, our appeal, and the appeal by "The Constitution League." We also appeal to all churches, secret societies, other racial organizations and individuals of our race to aid "The Constitution League" in its laudable effort to secure the rights of the citizens in this country, whether soldiers or civilians. This committee, purposely crawls from diverse elements and groups of Massachusetts coloured citizens, has for several months been in close personal touch with the management of "The Constitution League;" has been in cen- tential conference with its secre- tary; has given several hundred dollars into its hands to be expended at its discretion for the --- brought to Germany by a Catholic missionary and stayed for some time on the estate of Count Prasta, a prominent member of the reichstag. While still a youth, it was added, he was apprenticed to a Kiel ironmaster. Once the latter was asked: "Have you a Negro among your employees?" The answer was; "A Negro? No; but if you wish to see his roy al bighness, Prince Ludwig, at work, he is next door." Liersemann finally related that the prince spoke disrespectfully of some students, who, in return, sought him out and thrashed him soundly with sticks and fists. The alledged prince is merely the son of a native chief, but so great is the request for royalty and nobility in Germany that Ludwig Paul Opundo is addressed as "your royal highness," as a title recognized by the best people. The prince is always well dressed and speeds most of his time at Altona. The decision of the court is a- S DEFENSE OF BLACK BAT- ASSACHUSETTS COMMITTEE. IS—SUSTAIN THE APPEAL.

It is after this actual experience and test that we publicly declare our absolute confidence in "The stitution League" and recommend it to the colored Americans of the country as a most excellent agency in character and ability to receive and handle funds for the soldiers' defense, and for the enforcement of the National Constitution in all its parts, in accordance with its name. We declare "The Constitution League" to be the boon of the race, the greatest cause for hope, the rightful successor of Garri son's anti slavery society. Rev. R. C. Ransom Rev H J Callis Rev M. A. N.

It is feared if the verdict be rendered in favor of the Negro it will greatly affect German prestige in the Kameruns. Already Akwa natives have presented a petition to the reichstag protesting against the conduct of Gov. Putkammer and other German officials in the Kameruns. Western College ANNUAL CONVOCATION WEEK.

FARMINGTON At a joint session of Pythians and Calantheans Thursday evening, quite a number were entertained by an address from the Grand Chancellor Si· A. W. Lloyd After carefully stating the grow thand spread of Pythianism in Missouri, he touched largely upon the necessity of the Negro looking well to the investment of his pecuniary means. This statement, "All Negroes as a rule know how to earn money, but few know how, when and where to spend it" was well taken by the hearers. Chancellor commander, Charles E. Baker responded on behalf of Burlieigh Lodge and Miss Dayse F. Baker on behalf of Masoicat Court. Burlieigh Lodge rejoices always at the very thought of the annual trip of their most Worthy Grand Chancellor, for they know he brings with him glad tidings of great joy.
