The St. Louis Argus Washington, District of Columbia.—The cabin which was Lincoln's first home, now standing on its original site near Hodgensville, Ky., became the other day the property of the nation. A man who sees it, and later sees the completed great marble memorial to Lincoln on the bank of the Potomac at Washington, will have seen typical edifices of the most, symbolic career yet known to the republic. The one is ten logs high on a side; is plastered with soil, and has an outer chimney of logs, sticks and mud. The other is to cost millions; be made and adorned by artists of distinction; and become, next to Mt. Vernon, the home of Washington, the most frequented of all American civic temples. What enduring monuments these are, not only to Lincoln, but to the 10,000-000 Black men and women and children in America—it was because of the Emancipation Proclamation that Lincoln will longest be remembered. J. MILTON TURNER'S WILL CONTESTED Mr. J. S. Young, of Ardmore, Okla., is in St. Louis looking after the estate of the late J. Milton Turner. Two days were spent taking depositions in the office of Attorney Crittenden Clark, 1403 Market St. It was learned that the will of Mr. Turner is being contested by his relatives. THE INVINCIBLE CONCERT The people of St. Louis had an opportunity of witnessing one of the high class entertainments at Union Memorial last Monday night, September 25, and quite a large crowd took advantage of it by being present. The very first number rendered by the company was an index to a good entertainment that was to follow. throughout the evening each number seemed better than the one preceding. Messrs. Johnson and Makey, the two blind men, command the admiration of all who hear them. They are good. In the meanwhile, Mrs. Johnson and her daughter come for their part. Prof. J. W. Cooper is no stranger to amusement lovers in St. Louis, he having appeared recently at the Booker Washington Theater, as the "World's greatest ventriloquist." There are no dull moments during his performance with his Manikin. Dr. Abbott, pastor of the church, worked hard and gave them a good entertainment in return. JOHN WYATT DROWNS Sergeant John, Wyatt, of the Eighth Illinois Regiment, Co. H, son of Mrs. E. O. Wyatt, nephew of Mrs. B. J. Carruthers, Mrs. B. E. Alexander and Mr. Loyd Archer, formerly residents of St. Louis, was drowned in Austin, Texas, September 23. Body will be shipped to Chicago for interment. Y. W. C. A.

The popular concert held in the gymnasium Tuesday evening was attended by a large and responsive audience. The stars of the evening were Messrs. J. Arthur Freeman, Richard B. Harrison, Miss Myrtle A.

MEN'S MEETINGS OF Y. M. C. A BEGIN SUNDAY WEEK From reports that come from the Colored Department. Y. M., C. A. it looks like the "I Will Club" which has recently been organized is going to be a winner. The "I Wills" are planning to pay in on their subscriptions, or to collect from subscribers a certain amount by an early date in October. From the number of replies that have been received, there can be no doubt that there is a keen interest on the part, of the men, nor can it be doubted that these men are determined to work continuously for the new "Y." Arrangements have already been made for the beginning of the fall meetings at Pythian Hall. These meetings are for men and will begin on October 8 at 4:00 p. m. A strong list of speakers has been secured, among whom is Mr. Clarence Howard, president of the Commonwealth Steel Co., Judge Selden P. Spencer, Archdeacon, Jas H.

Wilkins, Mr. and Mrs. Packard, Miss Cora Hill, Miss Mackey, Mesdames Brolla Williams, Bettie Lems, Mary Smith, Laverta Hutt, Anna Sydnor and thirty children of the Union Memorial Church Sunday-school visited us, bringing song and sunshine to our old hearts. In the religious services led by Mr. Geo. B. Jones, Mr. Wilkins delivered a message from the Master, and the children made our hearts light with beautiful songs. The sight of so many dear little ones of our race took us back many years ago, when some of us had little ones of our own, and we, too, were a part of the busy world. Oh, it was a glorious day. Through the solicitation of Mrs. Geo. B. Jones, Mr. C. H. Horton, the druggist, donated three gallons of ice cream, which we greatly enjoyed. We are so grateful to know that we are not forgotten, thanks to the efforts of our dear missionary workers, and we want you, Mr. Editor, and your many readers to know that we are thankful.

Because is common, our rights must be common, we consolidated for the overthrow of all forms. We are glad to see our troops returning from the Southern frontiers. Though they are not battle-scarred, they have had some advantage from training and drilling and such exposure and deprivations as are inevitable concomitants with all wars. We are glad that the war did not take place, we regret that several bloody engagements happened, but our regret is greatly lessened by our admiration for the heroism and manliness displayed by the peerless 10th Cavalry at the battle of Carrizal. "The Noble Six Hundred" of Balaklava, in their deeds of heroism were met and surpassed by the Black 10th. These changes in Negro pluck and prowess will be rung for many years.

The money as we used for building and improvements. I understood that the Board needs money, for building purposes, that the children may the Board might do without waiting for the attention to the need of a building for the neighborhood of Fairfax and Finney A One thing the Board might do without waiting for the bond issue, is turn its attention to the need of a building for the Colored children in the neighborhood of Fairfax and Finney Avenues. This would relieve the congested condition at Simmons school. If the Board has not the money to erect a new building, we would suggest that the portable on Cottage Avenue be removed to the Fairfax location. There better arrangements, and better conveniences for the small children can be made. If portables are to be used, why not put them in the most convenient place for the most children. It will cost a very little more, and it is the duty of the Board to relieve the present condition at the Cottage Avenue school. "Any man who is brave enough to die for me and my country, I am brave enough to honor him for it."—Congressman L. C. Dyer. Wilson has been rebuked by his own party in New Jersey in turning down a candidate for the nomination for United States senator who was his choice and who had nominated him twice for the presidency. The Adamson law is acting on Wilson like a boomerang. It is the coming back, or the rebound, of a blow that will determine its force. Wilson can't dodge it. It is bound to hit and hit him hard, too. The Underwood tariff law did not, as promised, reduce the cost of living. It is one of the Demoeratic dismal failures. Prices are higher under the Underwood tariff law than ever before. Celebrates Tenth Anniversary of Victoria Hair Grower by Establishing Agencies. Jubilant Over Success. Mrs. Victoria Clay-Haley, National Organizer of the National Association of Colored Women, has just returned home from an extended tour in the interest of her business and is jubilant over her overwhelming success. Mrs. Haley is a graduate in the art of hair culture and during her twenty years of public service as a public school teacher, club, social, church and fraternal worker, she has had one thought uppermost in her mind, the need of more scientific hygiene as to hair, face, hands and body. After ten years' use a host of satisfied customers are unanimous in their demand for the con- Ask Sor Thaloria Mar Brown timed use of "Victoria Hair Grower" and will have nothing else. Therefore Mrs. Haley is now launching her business on a larger and improved method. On the recent tour she opened many agencies for the "Victoria System of Beauty Culture," and is now prepared to instruct classes in the "Victoria System" in person or by mail. Fall class is now being formed in the city. Any person desiring to enroll in October Class may do so by applying at the "Victoria" office, 200 N. Jefferson Ave., St. Louis, Mo.

This school is for the development of those desiring to become musicians. The different branches taught are: Piano, voice, harmony, theory, hand and orchestra, also choral directing. Mr. Austin, recently of Indiana, is widely known in musical lines. Since in the city of St. Louis, about two years, he has appeared in some of the largest churches and balls in the city, with band, orchestra and choral societies. A special course of instruction will be given each scholar in theory, regardless of what instrument they study. Come at once and get your schedule arranged. Special arrangements will be made for children who are in school; also for adults who are busy during the day, lessons can be arranged for at night. Remember you have a voice and you ought to develop that which has been given as a gift to you. A female orchestral band will be organized at once. All ladies playing wind, brass or string instruments are requested to meet Mr. Austin as soon as possible at his studio. All scholar's time can be arranged by phone or in person. The piano teaching in this conservatory is under the direction of Miss Marie Harris, who is widely known in this city being born here, and having received her musical education here principally. For several years she conducted a piano studio here with great success. She has served as a successful pianist in the large churches, the high school, and many large concerts in this city, both as a soloist and accompanist. She has sojourned for the past five years in New York City, Philadelphia, Pa., and New Jersey, where she received recognition as a successful pianist and teacher of piano music. Studio-613 N.

BENJ. DAVIS A BIG BARGAIN ODD FELLOWS' HALL By REV. J. H. RALSTON Secretary of Correspondence Department, Middlebury Institute of Chicago TEXT—Wherefore, holy brethren, partakers of the holy calling, consider the apostle and bishop priest, the apostle, Christ Jesus; who was faithful to him that appointed him, as also Moses was faithful in all his house—Heb. 2:1, 2 Man may lack nearly all the virtues that are ordinarily prized, but if he pressed, but if he retains just the virtue of faithfulness he cannot be overlooked. If he add to the other virtues that of faithfulness he at once goes to the front. PETER H. We may note that the faithfulness of Jesus Christ had something in view every moment—the commission of him who had appointed him. He had come to do the father's will and he never for a moment let that drop out of sight until he was ready to say. "I have finished the work that thou gavest me to do." Every man that thou gavest me to do. If he keeps in view the one who gave him the appointment, he will not fall. Jesus Christ realized every moment that he was an apostle, that is a "sent one," and he carried out his work as sent to be the high priest for his people, viz. to make a reconciliation of men to God, in short to make their redemption complete. This faithfulness of Jesus Christ was compared with the faithfulness of those who was declared to be "fatfulness in all his house." Nothing omitted as far as human scrutiny could go, but the faithfulness of Jesus Christ was greater—not so much in the quality of it—but in that he was faithful to the son in his own house, whose house we are. Here, as in other qualities of the high priest, Jesus was better than man or the best of men. It is in this faithfulness of Jesus Christ that the believer has the guardy of his ultimate salvation. While man must not forget that he must hold fast to the "confidence and rejoicing of the hope firm unto the end," with emphasis must always be placed on the fidelity of the Redeemer. Paul was confident that he that had begun a good work in him would perform it, or perfect it, until the day of Jesus Christ. To him Jesus was looked upon as taking hold of a man and guaranteeing his salvation. It is not presumption to look upon Jesus as undertaking the redemption of a man and believing that he will complete the work. It is very rarely that you find a Christian man or woman who is instrumental in bringing a man to the Lord who is faithful, and the believer might from two standpoints do well to think of Jesus as faithful to him. Sometimes when he is in the way of temptation and Jesus is having a hard time to hold him; sometimes when a man is really doing his best with tremendous opposition, Jesus is near at hand keeping him from falling. This faithfulness of Jesus is something in which we may all share. As we look upon men we find many of them possessing the talents that we do not possess. They have splendid physiques, fine personalities, good voices, high intellectual attainments, guavity and many other qualities, and as we look at ourselves we find ourselves to be utterly lacking, and such as we have are very inferior, and so we despair of making a mark in connection with them. There is another thing about the faithfulness of Jesus that completes our confidence; his faithfulness is coupled with transcendent ability. Paul again comes to us and says: "For I know in whom I have believed, and am persuaded that he is able to keep that which I have committed unto him against that day." There was a day when Paul committed his eternal salvation to Jesus Christ. He left it all in the hands of Jesus; he trusted him as faithful. At that time Paul did not know much about the ability of Jesus but now, near the end of his life, after the lapse indeed of many years, we know that he has tested Jesus and his testimony is that not only was he faithful but that he was able. We cannot doubt but that Paul had many hard battles, and as he was passing through some of them it would seem that he must fall, but just as he was going down Jesus held out his strong hand and delivered him. "That day" was not far distant to Paul although it has not arrived yet, but Paul knew that his eternal interests were safe in Jesus because he had tested him for so long. Paul knew that God was rich in glory and could supply all his needs, as he wrote to the Philippian Christians. To every man that has a serious thought about the salvation of his own soul Jesus Christ is presented as a mediator between God and man, in the position of the high priest, and he has three qualities that are absolutely necessary to the completion of that work. First, he has the ability to do it; secondly, he has the willingness to do it; thirdly, he has the faithfulness to do it. (BY M. O. SELLERH, Acting Director of the Sunday School Course of the Moody Bible Institute, Chicago). (Copyright 1915, Western newspaper Union.) LESSON TEXT—Acts 23 GOLDEN TEXT—They shall fight against thee; but they shall not prevail against thee; for I am with thee, saith Jehovah, to deliver thee—Jer. 1:19. The stirring events of this lesson occurred in the Castle Antonin and the Sanhedrin hall, near the temple court of Jerusalem; also in Caesarea, the Roman capital of Juden; on the Mediterranean coast, in the year A. D. 57, just at the close of Paul's third missionary journey. The lesson pictures two successive days of strange adventures in which Paul was concerned, a narrow escape and the unexpected providences used in his deliverance. The day was inaugurated by Paul's magic words, "I am a Roman citizen," which caused the commander, Lysins, to release him from the threatened scourging, and made him more than ordinarily careful in his treatment of Paul. 1. Before the Elders (vv. 1-12). By referring back to chapter 21, v. 13, we find the charge which really underlay all of Paul's trouble, his preaching in the name of the Lord Jesus. Paul's defense is interesting. He gives us a rehearsal of his Christian life, laying emphasis upon its blamelessness and the fact that he is not an apostate Jew. The high priest speaks to silence him, but not gently. Although Paul for a moment seems to give way to his justifiable indignation, he quickly reveals his reverence for the rulers of the people. He then divides the sanhedrin. Read carefully chapter 22:6:7, and compare with verses 17 and 18. The sanhedrin could not explain this testimony of Paul, and were seeking to put aside the whole question. An interesting discussion would be to consider the insult to Paul. Was his indignation right and rightly expressed? Another question, the matter of Paul's apology. Just for what did he apologize? Is it ever wrong to speak evil of rulers? These were indeed days of stress and storm. Was Paul justified in dividing the sanhedrin in order to conquer their opposition to him? Again, how God used these incidents in the furtherance of the gospel is a suggestive lesson for us all. It has been hinted that Ananias was not in his priestly garments, and therefore perhaps not readily recognized by Paul. Paul may never have seen him, as he was elected high priest after Paul had left the council. It is interesting to note that it is not said that anyone struck Paul or that Paul did not apologize for his words or deny them to be true, but only for their being spoken to the high priest. Read in this connection what Christ said to the Pharisees (Matt. 23:27). Paul apologized because he had broken the law found in Exodus 22:28. In the trial of Christ one of the officers struck Jesus with the palm of his hand, whereupon Jesus answered him, saying: "If I have spoken evil, bear witness of the evil, but if well, why mistest thou me?" On the other hand, when Jesus was ill-treated by the common soldiers, he opened not his mouth. II. The Plot and Deliverance (vv. 12-35). Paul's prospect was not a pleasant one. In his darkness God appeared to his faithful servant to cheer him (v. 11). Perhaps Paul was tempted to think he had made a mistake in coming to Jerusalem over the protests of his friends, but evidently the Lord heartily approved of his testimony there. A dangerous conspiracy was forming against him, but God was, as he always is, beforehand with his comfort and preparation for the crisis. We have often speculated as to what became of the forty men who entered into it (See v. 12)—whether they actually lived up to their oath. If they did, they must have died of starvation. They were determined men, willing to go any length, and fancied they were doing the will of God. There is no more dangerous man than he who fancies that he must be the judge as to who are God's friends and who are his foes, and that he is the appointed executioner of God's judgment. The plot was well laid, and seemed certain of success, but it failed miserably. (See Psalm 2:1-4; 64:1-10; Isaiah 41:10). The wicked, who leave God out of their plans, no matter how cunningly they plot, are doomed to failure (Rom. 8:31). These plotters co-operated with the priest. Ecclesiastics have often descended to the lowest villainy. Men are not murdered today, though their reputations are often blasted by unprincipled and bellishly impelled professed followers of the lowly Nazarene. Paul had friends in this city. His nephew's discovery and revelation, and the Gentile soldier, a colonel, offered his deliverance. In the boy's heart there must have been great admiration for the uncle. It would be well for teachers of boys to have them repeat in their own language this boy's story. Paul was not safe in Jerusalem. The Roman governor recognized the nature of the conspiracy, and the desperate character of the Jewish fanatics, and therefore sent him under a strong guard to Caesarea, which was reached after a journey on horseback, lasting through the night and the full lawning day.
