Up to that time, those who were unfortunately stricken by sickness or accident, were slightly cared for by the charity of the more fortunate miners. As a result of this condition of disorganization many were known to suffer for want of proper treatment and the common necessities of life. Providentially the interest of George Douglass was aroused and while discussing the matter with Matthew Mady, they resolved to attempt the organization of the Afro-American miners. The original plan was to enroll all who were willing to allow the revenue from one box of coal to go in a common fund to be used to pay sick or accident benefits to those who might become victims of either affliction. Fully fifteen miners were enrolled by August 10th, 1905. In a short time, the members were augmented to more than forty. The perfected organization was called "The Afro-American League' with the following miners as officers:— Edward Burris, President Shelley Oldon, Vice President Fred Lindsay, Recording Sect'y Wm. Davis, Financial Sect'y George Porter, Treasurer Matthew Mady acted as chairman of the temporary meetings that led up to the permanent organization. At present the Afro-American League has a membership of 125 and a cash balance of more than $500. In its roster it has enrolled a majority of the best Afro-Americans of LaFayette County. It will endeavor in the near future to establish a business enterprise that shall be helpful to each of its members as well as the general public. A word of commendation is due Messrs George Doug'ass, Matthew Mady and their associates who have wrought a work so nobly for the race. The following is a list of those who assisted in founding this worthy institution:— George Douglas Frank Wright Matthew Mady John Boyd Monroe Workcuff Wm. Call Elijah Lucas Virgil Shelley George Workcuff George China Charles Shelby John Lindsay Milton Holmes Peter Hawkins Wm. Workcuff Walter Mason Wm.

Recently our contemporary, The Sedalia Advocate, incommuting on some remarks made by certain ministers in Illinois, advised the Sedalia Negroes to do some foolish and untimely things. For any of our citizens to incite others to attempt to do anything that may be construed as an alarm or threat is untimely at this time, since there exist here the kindiest of feeling between the industrious, moral and progressive classes of all of our citizens, white and black. At no time since freedom came to us as a people, has it become more necessary that we guard our utterances than the present. Negroes, who have nothing at stake who have heretofore, walked the streets and talked loud and big, must be taught the lesson of prudence and common sense. Local politicians, if they are really patriotic, must cease to give aid to any class of citizens, who are foolish enough to preach, teach and talk: incendiarism, anarchy and race antipathy. WISE CHOICE The Freedman Aid Society in sending to George R. Smith College Albert C. Maclin, M.

THE WORLD'S GREATEST PARK Riverview-Chicago's Dazzling Fairyland of Amusement Devices. To see Chicago at play one must go to Grosse Pointe. Grosse Pointe is attractively gray moods and the lakes' is never merrier than when disporting. The Roman hippodrome cannot be compared with this great park, either in its fabulous investment or at attendance. Frequently 250,000 men, women and children are within the enclosure of the theater after one enters the white masonry of the gates and till he emerges, he is my hero. The theater is the lead everywhere to turreted pavilions, circuses, theaters, ballets, "Streets of Calao," ball parks, casinos, water parks, and train railways, "Wild West Shows," aerial coasters, manageries, Japanese pagodas and air concerts by the world's finches. Interview is a festival city, with its chimes of bells, peals of organs, roar of taints, cooling swish of waters, dashing of foaming lakes, beat whistles, stringed instruments, "tom-torns," euphonies of baggipes, chanting of Indians, hymnals of rifles and crash of artillery, roaring of lions, vocalizations of a million birds and animals, jubilee singing, shouts and laughter, and sounding above all, the tactile strains of Bohumir Kryl's great band. Its Chutes cascades, 500 feet in mid-rain spray in rainy conditions in continuous gondolas. Gay gondolas clouded clouds of mist, dashing downward until its transparent waterways lifted its transparent waterways into foam. Laughter and shouts of delighted passersby in musical murmur of the falling cascades. In a thrilling "Wild West," cowboys in Indians exhibit feats of bronze riding. The biblical story of Babylon is en- dicated by women and women in the classical costumes. In Big Otto's Animal Jungle, "Miss Della Young," pretty and fearless, detains wildcats. She eats the lice of a Nu-tahoe head between great teeth that give dangerously against her white throat. She and Harrisee; the "Kyrahnus" on the mountainous retreat of Emperor Barbarossa, and Paul Revere's ride are here.

The first of June we organized two clubs and Mrs. Lizzie Holmes was chosen Capt. of club No. 1. known as Busy Bee Miss Daisy Harris was chosen Capt. of club No 2 known as the Excelsor. These captains were to report to the Trustees the 3rd Sunday in this month. It was quite interesting to see how the members of the two clubs vied with each other. The pastor W. A. Bohannon ably assisted by Rev J. G. Hunt of the Market St. M. E. Church of this city. Revs. Harris of the A. M. E. church and Wilson of the C. M. E. church and a few members from their congregation came over in the afternoon. At 7:30 oclock the pastor preached to a large crowd taking for his text Mark 13:13. At the close of this service the captains were called and made their report. Club No. 1. reported $84.70 and club No. 2. $46.00—Total $130.70. Much credit is due these christian women for their labor. This money is to be applied on the debt of the Trustees'. W. A. Bohannon A Reynolds.

BURNS The World Oldest Ruler The World Oldest Ruler The Republic of Hayti has become notorious for its revolutions. Its present ruler, President Nord Alexis, however, is a remarkable man. He is 88 years of age and is said to be the oldest ruler in the world. He hopes to serve another term and if he does he will reach at least the age of 96. Notwithstanding his advanced age he is a man of considerable energy. Current Literature in a recent number contains an interesting article on General Lord. Among other things, the author says: "He is a typical full-blooded Negro of the somewhat Senegamban Hayti sort. The top of the cranium is well nigh destitute of hair, while what remains on either side of the head is closely cropped. Its iron gray curlines detract from whatever notion of the patrarchal may attach, to the personality of the oldest ruler of any nation in the world. "The thick lips are surmonted by certain straggly hairs which the General waxes punctilliously, for he is a great admirer of the third Napoleon between whom and himself, according to the Parts daily just named, his admirers discern a striking physical O Superior Faculty Terms Reasonable.

Whether by pick or plane, Whether by tounge or pen, Let me not live in vain; "He is a profound student of the campaigns of Napoleon Bonaparte, whose mass theory of tactics he exemplified in his own many battles in the northern Haytian hills for the freedom of his country. "It is admitted by all Haytians that Alexis is first and foremost a soldier, but he is likewise honest and of a humane disposition. What foundation there may be for the rumors that he has immense wealth no one in Hayti seems to know. He lives within his income of twenty-four thousand dollars a year—the presidential salary. Alexis has been voted in recent periods liberal extra sums for traveling expenses—as much as fifteen thousand dollars annually." ---S. W. Christian Advocate. Life Give me a taste of life!

School of Fatherhood Lady Cook, of England, proposes that a School of Fatherhood be established throughout England and the United States. She says of the matter: 'There has been enough talk a bout saving the women. Let us make an effort to save the men. Heaven knows they need saving. There is a phrase on everyone's lips about a child's right to a good mother. The child has a right to a good father, too. It will be the aim of the school to train boys to such standards of living as shall make them fine; clean heads of families. "The school which I expect to see in operation within the year correspond to a normal school. Teachers will be taught there the principles that shall be taught to boys, beginning at the ages of from eight to ten and onward until the lads are of marriageable age. This is what the Duchess of Marlborough meant when she said: 'I want to see boys taught the doctrine of personal responsibility.' She has been schooled in much sorrow, and she has learned better lessons that have taught her to bring up her boys to noble manhood.
