Grand Representatives, Members of the Knights of Pythias and Courts of Calantha of the Grand Jurisdiction of Missouri—Greeting. Owing to the fact that the Knights of Tabor, under the provisions of their laws, are required to meet on the Fourth Tuesday in July, and the further fact that they had called their convention to meet in Fayette, Mo., prior to our having acted on the place of our next session, I deem it best for all concerned to change the date of our Grand Lodge session from the Fourth Tuesday, to the Third Tuesday in July, knowing that Fayette could not accommodate two Grand Bodies the same week. Theregory, by the power vested in me as Grand Chancellor of the Jurisdiction of Missouri, I do hereby proclaim and ordain that the 23rd Annual Session of the Grand Lodge K. of P., is hereby called to meet in the city of Fayette, Mo., as a guest of the Fayette Lodge No. 35 K. of P., on the 3rd Tuesday in July 1907, the same being the 11th day of, for the purpose of transacting such business as shall properly come before it. Let all whom these presents concern govern themselves in accordance with the above. 1. I call your attention to Art. XI, Sect. 2, Grand Lodge Constitution, that, "Each subordinate lodge shall pay to the Grand Lodge with Semi-annual report, 25c per capita tax for each member in good standing." Said tax must be paid at once to W. A. Gunnell, G. K. of R. & S., P. O. Box 803 Desoto, Mo. Any lodge failing to comply with the above requirements will not be allowed a voice or a vote upon the Grand Lodge floor. 2. The Endowment tax for the term ending Sept. 30, is now due and must be sent to W. T. Ancell, Huntsville, Mo., July 1. Lodges failing to comply therewith, will be dealt with according to law. 3. All who anticipate attending the Grand Lodge and Grand Court, will communicate with B. F. Isaacs, J. H. Diggs and H. L. Williams, Eayette, Mo., in order that arrangements may be made for their board and lodging. 4. Lodges desiring changes or amendments in the laws, etc., must submit same in writing through their representatives prop-early signed as per requirements of law. 5. I have had extensive correspondence with Southwestern Excursion Bureau, and the Western Passenger Association in an effort to secure rates, but owing to the fact that the two ct. per mile rate passed by the recent State Legislature goes into effect about June 14 1906, they were unable to make any concessions. 6. The Grand Lodge will be in sageg from July 16 to 19 in clusive, or until all business that shall legally come before it shall have been transacted. 7. All past chancellors desiring Grand Lodge degree must present credentials properly signed and sealed. Charges for the same will be $2.00 8. Each subordinate lodge in this jurisdiction shall be entitled to one representative in this Grand Lodge for the first 50 members or less, and one for each additional 50 members. Such representatives must be past chancellors in good standing, with credentials properly signed by their respective lodges. 9. I would recommend that no lodge send a delegate who cannot remain until the session has completed its work and the Grand Lodge has adjourned. 10. I desire herein to call the special attention of the Chancellor Commands of subordinate lodges to the fact, that the Grand Lodge in session at Kansas City July 1906, made the payment of the Temple Tax obligatory upon the lodges. (See p. 93 Official Proceeding 22nd Annual Session.) You are there fore instructed to enforce the collection of the same as the lodge will be held responsible to the Grand Lodge. All lodges who have not reported Pythian Temple tax on blanks furnished sometime ago, are liable to suspension. 11. The report of the per capita tax, must correspond the number of the Beneficiary Board. 12. Representatives from South East Missouri, and St. Lo. is expected to leave for Fayett, Monday evening, July 15th. For further information, call or write the Grand Chancellor at Pythian Temple Building 3137 Pine., St St. Louis, Mo. 13. Representatives from lodges who have deceased members since the last session, will bring with them a written ecology and present the same to the chairman of the Committee on Memorials. 14. The 4th quarterly meeting of the Beneficiary Board will be held in the city of Fayette, Mo., July 16, 1907. Any matter requiring the attention of the board should be forwarded to the Secretary, W. T. Ancol, at Huntsville, Mo by July 1, 1907. 15. The formal opening of the Grand Lodge will be postponed to Tuesday evening, July 16, at 8 p. m. at the Grand Opera House, and all Grand Lodge offices and Representatives will assemble Tuesday a. m., July 16, to go into official session. Given under my hand and seal of the Grand Lodge, this 27th day of may 1907. (ATTEST) W. A. GUNNELL, G. K. of R. and S. A. W. LLOYD.

Others believe it to be the place where they may in two weeks learn in the way of scholastic training more than they have due several year actual class work in the schoolroom. Both ideas extremely erroneous and childish. The Institute is not a strong where the conductor acts as ring-master, while those who tend do some manner of intellectual stunt. Neither is the Institute an academy, so thoroughly charged with intellectual dynasty that one needs merely to go there empty-headed and sit open minded, for a brief season, to be filled with mentality, intellectual common sense. These things do not come that way. The sphere of the Teachers' Institute is to deal with simple practical and real conditions and things. It may properly be led a Grand Convocation of Experiences. In it, it is presumed the teacher or an aspirant to teach, has had some scholastic training before entering the Institute. Thither they should come to assist the methods by which they may impart their knowledge to others. By a study of methods the individuality and person of the taacher will be considerably strengthened. If teachers would read and study half as hard six months before the Institute as they do during its sessions, they would reap value when they attend since they would not have to be so burdened with books, books, books.

While we confess that we have had many shortcomings during the past year, yet we feel grateful for all that we have accomplished. By persistent effort we have been able to augment the efficiency of our office equipment by the addition of materials and machinery that are necessary for the maintenance of a general newspaper and job printing business. When we began this publication we knew nothing of type, composition, job printing or anything practical about newspaper or job work. Today we are able to do some of all manner of work connected with either newspaper or job printing. All we have learned in the way of practical printing we count as a valuable asset. From practical experience we have been able to learn much of men and issues. At times we have been forced by conscience and circumstances to join issue, on public propositions, with some of our friends, our local politicians and our associates. In all of our controversies, we have endeavored to be open, frank, honorable, fearless and aggressive. To be conscientious rather than mercenary has ever been our guiding star. Believing as we do that journalists should build sentiment rather than yield to its bickerings, it would be inconsistent with our inmost promptings to allow any extraneous influence to dictate our policies. Be it known, however, that in maintaining this position, during the past year, we have frequently counselled and advised with our friends. Advice is welcomed; dictation is resented. Our policy, hereafter, shall be to defend the truth and to encourage industry, character, education and everything that tends towards racial unity, national development and international peace. Politically we shall stand for men, who are broad enough to extend to all men, even Black men, every constitutional right and God-given privilege. In other words it is our purpose, hereafter, to practice sensible politics. Common sense instead of antiebellum or postbellum sentiment shall be the premises from which we shall derive our political conclusions. Reciprocity is our 1907-'08 slogan. For the year 1907-'08, we feel safe in assuring the public that the Conservator will be better in every department—Editorial, Mechanical, News, Business and Job. Unto all who have so zealously stood by us in the past we extend our heartiest thanks. In frankly setting forth our intentions, we purpose to enter the business world with more aggressiveness during the ensuing year. Any favors shown will be most highly appreciated.

She is in a critical condition today. There had been no objection to their marraige, except on account of her age, but the young couple decided that parental objections should not count, and started with a horse and buggy for Lewisburg, county seat of the adjoining county, to secure the necessary license and be married. They had proceeded only a few miles, when their horse was stopped by two men. One unhitched the horse while the other held the occupants of the buggy under control at the point of a revolver. --- Men Rapes for white Women Marriage, Propective Groom Tied is Criminally Assaulted by Nherner Charged With Mur- After Raping Her.

WOMAN IN CRITICAL CONDITION IN CRITICAL CONDITION The men were finally taken to jail at Marlinton, although the crowd at first was determined to lynch them, but cooler counsel prevailed. Miss Bird had to be carried to Marlinton and her condition is serious. It is feared that the excitement of the night, and the cruelties of which she was subjected may drive her into insanity. This is the second crime of the same nature which has occurred in the same section within a year, the former one having been committed at Ronceverte about a year ago.

Mrs. Alice G. Jones, of St. Joseph, presided over the body of more than 125 ladies. "Blest Be Mhe Tie That Binds," was used as an opening praise. Miss Alma Fleming, of St. Louis, presided at the organ. Prayer was offered by Hon. S. W. Veughn of Weston, Mo. The welcome address to the visitors and members of the Grand Court was delivered very ably by Mrs. Laura Kennedy of this city. The response was made by Mrs. C. R. McDowell of Hannibal. The first day was devoted chiefly to committee arrangement and the consideration of the Grand Matron's address, which was received with heavy applause. It is fitting that much praise be given Mrs. Jones, who has presided so deliberately over this large body and she has proven herself in every way equal to the honored position. Wednesday morning's session was given chiefly to hearing reports and fixing the place for the next meeting, Cape Girardeau was the choice. The afternoon session was given to the election of officers for the ensuing year. Queen of Honor Court of this city tendered the Grand Court, Goodwill Lodge and visiting court members a swell reception at the Masonic Hall on Wednesday evening. A large audience was in attendance.

The public installation was held at the masonic hall, Mesdames E. J. Smith and M. L, Harrison officiating. On retiring from office the G. A. M. received from the subordinate court at Paris a beautiful hand painted plate, valued at $25 also from the Grand Court the neat sum of $5 as a token of remembrance to her of her fidelity to the Order.

CALL FOR A SOLEMN CONCLAVE To the Citizens of the State of Missouri On February 13th, 1907, fifty delegates, representing ten counties and larger cities in the State, assembled in the State House in Jefferson City to enter their protest against the seperate car law, which had already passed the State Senate, and to appeal to the reason, liberality and good judgement of the railroad committee and other members of the House of Representatives who were present, to keep the proposed bill from becoming a law. We are thankful to say that the better judgement of that body prevailed and we have been spared the humiliation to which our people are subjected in many States. The success which attended our efforts upon this occasion indicates clearly that with organization throughout the State and discreet management we can do much towards creating a healthy public opinion in regard to all matters bearing upon the interests of our race. The Negro is under criticism, he needs defense; his civil and political rights are in jeopardy he needs protection. For these reasons the delegation adopted a resolution while assembled in the A.M.E. Church, Jefferson City, Mo., February 18th, 1907, instructing the president and secretary of that gathering to invite a solemn convoction of the people of Missouri through their representatives, for the purpose of considering the advisability of a permanent organization. The meeting is hereby called to convene in St. Louis, Mo. opening in Central Baptist Church July 10th, at 9 a.m. and closing in St. Paul A. M. E. Church, July 11th. All religious denominations educational institutions, charitable associations, secret societies, and any other organizations in the State not included in this number are requested to send at least one delegate from each city, community and precinct to be present at said convention at the time herein designated.

New York, May 25—An attempted criminal assault on a five-year-old girl in Corona, L. I., today gave rise to the suspicion that Henry Becker might not haue been the assault of Amelia Staffeldt, the 15-year-old girl who was found slain in a field in Elmhurst on Wednesday of last week The culprit in today's attempted outrage was arrested, and he answers fairly well the description given by Joseph Engel of the man he saw running away in the cabbage patch adjoining the lot in which the Staffeldt girl was murdered. The scene of the Staffeldt tragedy is not for distant from the place where today's atinmpted assaults took place. Mt. Vernon, Mo.. June 5- Mt.
