THE WACO HORROR.
THE APPEAL prints in this issue the special report of an agent of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, who was sent to Texas to investigate the recent man-burning at Waco, the center of Texas Christian Civilization.
The report says: "This is the account of one lynching. It is horrible, but it is matched in horror by scores of others in the last thirty years, and in its illegal, law-defying, race-hating aspect, it is matched by 2,842 other lynchings which have taken place between January 1, 1885, and June 1, 1916."
"What are we going to do about this record? The civilization of America is at stake. The sincerity of Christianity is challenged. The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People proposes immediately to raise a fund of at least $10,000 to start a crusade against this modern barbarism. Already $2,000 is promised, conditional on our raising the whole amount."
THE APPEAL has made a contribution to the fund and hopes that every American who believes in the supremacy of the law and the perpetuity of democracy to give to the cause according to his means.
NO DENIAL
The Richmond Planet has an article headed "Major Moton's-Denial" and quotes from the New York Age, that paper's statement of the case.
As a matter of fact there has been no denial by Major Moton of the charges as stated in the public press.
THE APPEAL agrees with the Cleveland Gazette, that the Age evidently means well, but that Major Moton is fully able to speak for himself.
THE APPEAL believes that if he is not guilty as charged that Major Moton ought to issue a signed statement repudiating the reports sent out by the Associated Press and announcing that he will be a man no matter if Tuskegee is swept from the face of the earth.
OPPOSES HYPHEN REGIMENT.
Mayor Mitchell of New York objects to the organization of a regiment of troops composed exclusively of citizens of German birth. In his letter, which he has given out he said he was of the opinion that it would be hurtful to draw racial lines in American military matters.
"I would deprecate the formation of a regiment composed wholly of men of any one nationality," he added, whether they be German, French, Italian or Russian, as this might tend to draw the very racial lines which I believe ought to be avoided. I suggest that you urge your men to join the regular organizations of the national guard or such other organizations as may be recruited by the federal authorities."
The mayor ought to have added that it is a mistake to form a separate regiment of colored men. Colored men in New York made a fight to have themselves segregated. It was a great mistake and adds another to the list of causes which will prevent the colored people from being treated as American citizens. IT NEVER PAYS TO ASK FOR SEGREGATION OF ANY KIND.
HAS HEART ENLARGEMENT
The Pullman Palace Car Company is getting reckless! It has announced a raise in the wages of its employees. The raise granted is 5 per cent, but there will be no raise for porters who have been less than 15 years in service.
This means that if a porter continues working for the Pullman Co. and does not get fired around the close of his 14th year of service he will receive an increase in wages of $1.87½ a month.
The present top wages of the Pullman porters is $2.75 a month.
The benevolent Pullman Company also announces that in consideration of its 5 per cent increase in wages to employees 15 years in service that the old system of yearly bonuses to men 15 years in service are to be given 2½ per cent increase every five years.
A BRAVE GOVERNOR
Governor Dunne of the state of Illinois is a just and brave man. He has just signed the sixth reprieve he has granted to Elston Scott, a colored murderer under sentence of death at Murphysboro, III. The last reprieve stays the hanging until October 27, because Sheriff James White of Jackson county has steadfastly refused to grant the governor assurances that the execution would be conducted decently. It seems that the sheriff had planned to make the hanging a gala public event, but Governor Dunne is determined that the state shall not be so disgraced.
A GREAT GRAFT
A national colored democratic league has been organized for the purpose of making a raid on the democratic barricade. The four members met this week and elected themselves officers.
Resolutions indorsing the administration of President Wilson and by his jimcrow policy were adopted by a unanimous vote of four.
Mr. Peacock explained an elaborate plan "to get next to" the democratic national campaign fund which was received with great enthusiasm and shouts of "Let me get to it!".
It is said that on account of the high price of all building material all building operations connected with the large fund raised for the segregated Y. M. C. A. and Y. W. C. A. will be dispensed with for the present. It would be better if the buildings were dispensed with entirely. No good can come from "jim-crow" public or quasi-public institutions of any kind.
After telling the story of the recent "jimrow" reunion of the M. E. church North and the M. E. Church South, the Cleveland Advocate asks, "Whither is the M. E. Church North bound?" In reply the APPEAL begs to suggest that it is HEADED FOR HELL.
It was Japan, a nation NOT WHITE, that has called the hand of the first president of the United States who has used his high office to discriminate against the colored part of this nation. BROWN Tokio dictates to WHITE Washington. SO mote it be.
Dr. Ng Poon Chew, formerly a consul in the Chinese service and editor of the first Chinese newspaper in America, says China has too many W. J. Bryans. He says the great need of his country is to inoculate a fighting spirit into its younger generation.

MOB OF CHRISTIANS BURNING HUMAN BEING IN U.S.A.
Fifty thousand copies of the story of "The Waco Horror" have just been distributed by the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People through its official organ, the Crisis, and as a result a campaign for an anti-lynching fund of $10,000 has been solicited. Immediately hearing the details of this American atrocity, which for barbary surpasses anything charged against the Germans in Belgium, Judge Moorfield Storey, National President of the Association, and formerly President of the American Bar Association, and the N.A.A.D. Abody, both of Boston each offered to the National ward such a fund on condition that the remaining $8,000 be raised by August 1.
The N. A. A. C. P. sent a special investigator from National headquarters at 70 Fifth avenue, New York, who commenced gathering evidence in the lynching, and curred, within forty-eight hours after the lynching. Inasmuch as fifteen thousand people had sanctioned the affair by their presence and dozens of witnesses, the difficulty in ascertaining the names and addresses of the ring-leaders and the failure of both the judge and sheriff to make the slightest effort to protect their prisoner. The Associata of Texas lawyer, a distinguished Texas lawyer with courage enough to bring the case against these murders into court.
Politics, the investigator found, was at the bottom of the affair. Sam Fleming, the sheriff, is up for reelection at the Democratic primary in July. His opponent, Buchanan, though not a Democrat, has bigger his credit, and is therefore a poplar. Unless he is to go back to selling bargains and cultivators for the

hardware store, Sam needed a lynching to increase his popularity. The murder of Mrs. Fryer on Monday May 8, came just at the right time. Jesse Washington, a colored boy of New York and rape, his trial was set for Monday, May 15. The crowd began gathing from the surrounding country or Sunday. When court opened, 1,500 crowded into the room, inside the rail and the judge's desk and jury box, and 2,000 waited in the court yard.
The District Judge of the Criminal Court, R. I. Munroe, elbowed his way to his desk, and the boy was brought from his chambers, where he had been sent from Dallas in the middle of the night. As the jurors were called, the crowd yelled, "We don't need any jury!" but the trial was allowed to be hurried through. The jury brought in a guilty plea, and asessed his punishment at death, asessed his punishment at death. The defendant had waived his legal rights and would have been hanged that same afternoon. There was a pause in the jury, and the rapher slipped out with his records. Sheriff Fleming sneaked out, too. Then a big fellow in the back of the court room yelled, "Get the nigger!" They took him before the court and took his judgment, without the judge lifting a fist. The back stairs they rushed him to the crowding outside. They put the chain in his mouth so that he wouldn't choke too soon, and when the driver of the Anheuser brewery led the rabble, wound it around his

own wrist rather than take chances that the boy should die too soon. Many had come a long way to attend this party and they didn't want it to be a minute. Everybody was happy; they helped and sang like a bunch of fans at a ball game, according to a Waco paper. When the boy's clothes had been cut up and distributed as souvenirs there were not enough pieces to go around, so some cutup cut on an ear for his keepsake. The Waco Times-Herald published the same afternoon, said the burning, the people on every side took a hand in showing their feelings in the matter by striking the Negro with anything obtainable; some struck him with shovels, bricks, clubs, and others stabbed him and cut him until when the strung up his body was a solid-colored blood of the blood of the many wounds inflicted covered him from head to foot."
They took Washington to a tree on the City Hall lawn just outside the window of His Honor, the Mayor, which he generously shared with Mr. Gulderleve, the photographer to the Cairn house, to cut a chain was thrown over the limb of this tree, and while the fire was being lit, this bloody thing was hoisted into the air where everyone would have a full view. A manicurist who works for Goldstein & Mingle, whose office was told the investigator she saw on the lad. As the chain tightened around his neck, this half-dead creature reached up convulsively to grab it, so they cut his fingers off. The Waco Times-Herald makes no bones of it. "Fingers, ears, pieces of cloth, all that the Negro's body were cut off by members of the mob that had crowded to the

scene as if by magic when the word that the Negro had been taken in charge by the mob was heralded over the city. As the smoke rose to the top, the crowd gathered in the neighborhood of 10,000, crowding the City Hall lawn and overflowing the square, hanging from the windows of buildings, viewing the scene from the tops of buildings and the streets. Blocks of blocks away. Onlookers were hanging from the windows of the City Hall and every other building that commanded a sight of the burning, and as the Negro's body commenced to burn, the crowd grew larger, thousands of throats, and apparently everybody demonstrated in some way their satisfaction. * * * * *
The body of young Washington was burned to a crisp and was left for scraping. "Women and children who desired to view the scene were allowed to do so, the crowds parting to let them look on," says the newspaper account. One father, when questioned about the scene, said the son on his shoulder where he could get a good view, is reported as saying: "My son son can't learn too young the proper way to treat a nigger."
At 12.o'clock the crowd adjourned for lunch, as usual; but by a quarter past one some of the boys were back to continue the fun. A cowboy who had ridden in off the range created a diversion by lassosing the corpse and riding all over town with the remains dangling at the end of his lariat. When the head bounced off as he galloped through the "reservation," the ghetto where the Negroes and prostitutes are segregated, some little
boy sets it up on one of the doorsteps and extracted the loose teeth, which are reported to have brought as high as five dollars apiece from those who hold such rare and permanent souvenirs in their hands, held together till night, the undertaker was able to chuck into a very small ash can. Waco is a center of American culture and is a Southern college town. It is a Chatham University, 40,000 population, boasting thirty-nine white and twenty-four colored churches. Yet no responsible voice was raised in protest that bloody Monday, and only one has been since. The town is cry to Heaven should be raised against this and every lynching, by legal prosecution, by publicity, by co-operation with the best white element of the South, political agitation, are urged to assist in the association for the Advancement of Colored People to raise this $10,000 anti-lynching fund before August 1. Contributions should be sent to Oswald Garrison Villard, the attorney at the national headquarters of the 70 Fifth avenue, New York.
Waco and Americanism.
(From the Chicago Evening Post.)
If Americanism is more than a smeal shibboleth of patriotism; if, as we have it, it has a real meaning that gives the manismism must be shocked and humiliated by the horrible story of the Negro lynching at Waco, Texas. It is no defense to say that the war in this instance had confessed to it, and been convicted by a court of justice. Rather it is an aggravation, for here there was no risk that justice would not claim the full penalty. The burning of the man for the delectation of citizens and citizens under such circumstances, is to brutal horror too black for words to stigmatize. It was the gratifying of aust for vengeance as guilty as theust that provoked it. It was more cruel in its wrong to Americanism at this time because the people of Texas have been crying aloud for the repression of mob rule on their own border. They demand intervention to compel them in Mexico, yet give themselves to violent violence in their own state.
In the forefront of the Villa chase the colored soldiers of the Tenth Cavalry and Twenty-fourth Infantry have done exceptional place; they have done exceptional work, and the ideal of Americanism must be exalted in their minds by the knowledge that American law cannot protect from the mob a member of their own family. As pervious to Americanism as the "moral treason of the politico-racial hynen" is the treason of those who defy law and humanity and brand their country with the mark of barbarity, they must be guilty cows in Waco cannot be apprehended, every citizen in the town should be disfranchised. It would be small injustice to those who were not participants, for in a matriarchal community tolerates such outrages and protects the perpetrators, it should bear a measure of the responsibility. The votes of men who practice anarchy do not desirable votes. Disfranchised men may be done to protect Americanism.
Agreed to Be "Set Aside." (From the Postle of
(From the Eagle, Washington, D. C.) No, the colored delegates to the M. E. General Conference, held at Saratoga to "walk out." They simply assented to arrangements to be "set aside"—to be segregated into a colored general conference, to be presided over by a colorado delegate, to be the delegate of directing their own laborers in the Master's vineyard. Two years from now the two wings of the M. E. church, North and South, will unite to colorate membership and the refusal of public honors to the 350,000 colored communicants are designed to clear the way for the approaching "love feast." There is verity in the assertion that, in the situations, the church is a social organization, with religion as a by-product.

Comments of Colored Contemporaries on Major Moton's Failure to Resent the Humiliation of His Wife and the Insult to the Colored People of the Country.
AN OPEN LETTER TO ROBERT
RUSSIA MOTON.
(From the Crisis.)
The Crisis hastens to extend to you on your accession to the headship of Tuskegee the assurances of its good will and personal respect. The Crisis does this all the more willingly because it has to some extent been the mouthpiece of many who have had occasion to speak to you about the words and deeds of your predecessor. It would be a matter of hope and rejoicing if your assumption of new duties could be the beginning of a new era of union and understanding among the various groups of Americans. But understanding and co-operation must be based on frank conference and clear knowledge. As a preliminary step to such understanding the Crisis ventures in this open letter to express to you publicly its hopes and fears. It hopes that the aims of the colored American have become sufficiently clear to admit of no misunderstanding or misstatement. We desire to become American citizens with every right that pertains to citizen ship.
1. The right to vote and hold office.
2. Equality before the law.
3. Equal civil rights in all public places, and in all public services.
4. A proportional share in the bene fits of all public expenditures.
5. Education according to ability and aptitude.
With these rights we correlate our duties as men and citizens—the abolition of poverty, the emancipation of women, the suppression of crime and the threat of war. The Crisis assumes—indeed, it knows—that in these matters you believe substantially, as we do, and that the real differences between us, if they are such, lie in matters of present employment and present process. We assume, without demur, that following the late Booker T. W. Washington you will place especial emphasis on vocational training, propagation of the Christian faith in white South. These are necessary and against these the Crisis speaks policies, but they have their pitfalls, this warning word: The teacher and broadener training will give any race its ultimate leadership. This Mr. Washington came to realize, and this you must not forget. 2. Individual accumulation of wealth may graduate and inevitably give way to the accumulation and equitable distribution.
3. Finally: Conciliation is wise and proper. But how far shall it go? It is here that the Crisis confesses to its solicitude in your case. It cannot be ransom, but the request query of you in the case of the St. Louis luncheon. It has it before the heading of a Rochester paper which gives as your opinion that "from North one gets distorted view of South. At first, there is the recent case the Fullman car and your family. The Crisis will assume in all of these cases that you have not been correctly reported; that you did not want to be distracted from St. Louis City Club; that you did not assert that the South was maligned usually at the North, and above all, that you did not say that you had no sympathy with the attempt of memorial car rides on Pullman cars in the South. The Crisis knows only too well the way in which Southern newspapers put such sentiments into the mouths of colored leaders; but the point upon which this is the case that such atrocious statements cannot be always passed in silence.
We do not wish the principal of Tuskegee to spend his valuable time in answering calumines and misstatements, but we do believe that when he is in the case of the Pullman car, something besides silence and acquiescence is called for.
We hope to see, therefore, at Tuskegee in the future a carrying out and a passing past work and a continued attempt to come to terms of understanding with the best of the white South; but to these policies we hope to see added a policy of making it clearly understood that Tuskegee does believe in the Tuskegee does believe in the Jim-Crow cars; that it recognizes the work of the Negro colleges, and that it agrees with Charles Sumner that the rights of rights is the first of rights."
This, then, is the forward step at Tuskegee which the Crisis and its friends look for under your administration, and it desires to express its faith, and indeed its faith, that you will not disappoint your fellow workers.
RESENTMENT NEEDED
After having been appointed Pulman tickets from Montgomery, Ga., the wife of Major Robert R. Moton, recently installed as principal of Tuskegee Institute, and Blanton Moton, his brother, were ejected from the car by "two police officers" in the best citizens of Troy, Ala. Although he had paid Pullman fares and were interstate passengers, both were forced to ride in the jimcrow car.
The wires tell us that when Major Moton was informed of the matter, he concurred in saying that he "respected the traditions of the nation" and had no resentment against the people who committed the outrage."
THE APPEAL has no hesitancy in saying that If Major Moton is quoted correctly and feels that way that he respected the presidency of an institution which should be fit colored youth for life. Managed should be the basis of all training.
What more is needed to make a man resentful than an attack on his wife? A being who would not defend his wife is being one who is unworthy to be called a man. Even the lower animals the males willingly give their lives in defense of their mates. The present unhappy state of the coated people in the United States is largely due to the tactics of the so-called leaders who have not only too cowardly to defend themselves when attacked but have actually advised submission to great
Major Moton is in no sense a leader of the colored people, but the fact that he is at the head of Tuskegee gives him influence and he is doing the colored people a great wrong when he is to resent any wrongs. He was pickled with people who are not looking for the real welfare of the country but for their own selfish ends.
If the trustees of Tuskegee really mean to serve the colored people they should ask for the resignation of Principal Moton and put in a man who will attack on the rights of the race.
Manhood is the basis of all real progress.
Servility Brings Contempt
Colton, Cincinnati, O. J.
If the above shows true referring to the "Motton Invoice" Major Motton will rise to fame and as did his illustrious predecessor, "Crooking the pregnant hinges of the knee that thrift may follow fawning" of white death from the great masses of white flesh, he also brings a vast amount of content. There is so much bowing, cringing and nauseaesthetic servility shown by some of our people, is it any wonder that the 25th class of white people feel the Lord's anointed, and therefore vastly superior to all colored people?
No Very High Opinion.
(From the Nashville Globe)
We entertain no very high opinion of President Moton's explanation to the Associated Press Correspondent at Montgomery, anent that sleeping car episode. We trust he was incorrectly quoted.
An Apologist.
(From the Washington Bee.)
The Bee, at the time Major Moton was named by a committee of apologists, said then that he was a "Hand-Picked Leader." The leader of the colored race in this country is due to these "hand-picked leaders." Now, in the place, Major Moton represents a class of white men and not the Colored Americans. He not only as a "hand-picked leader" but an apologist who fails to present an insult. Would he can white man of any nationality attempt to make excuses for an insult to his wife by a common carrier. But this not been the policy of all hand-picked representatives. This hand-picked representative applies to the insult offered his wife while route to her home. Will Major Moton, the newly installed principal of uskewee, enter a suit for damages? The hand-picked representative to those who had insulted her. The Bee has always been an admirer Major Moton, and thought that he possessed manly traits, that would comment him to the thoughtful consideration of the American black Bee must confess that he is a hand-picked leader and an apologist.

Major Moton's First Duty:
The future of the great work at Tuskegee, may call for an offending silence, but it will never be helped long or to any great degree by an abject surrender of the race's rights. The Motson's first duty to himself and his wife set himself now and at all times four weeks with the progress of his people.
Must Contend for Rights
We do not just understand the position of Principal Robert R. Moton in the matter ..... There is no other course to pursue than to con- tend for rights denied, even then the rights and dis- appointed in so doing. We must be ever settled until it is settled right. We must continue to appeal to the conscience of the American people. We must continue to attempt to enforce our rights in the courts of the land, even though schools of them may be prejudiced against us.
Has Shown His Hand
Four days after the inexperienced assistant principal of Tuskegee, Ala. Normal and Industrial Institute the South forces Major Moton to "show his hand" and there is not even a "deuce" for the race. One thing sure and the most racial standpoint he is certainly no improvement upon Booker T. Washington.
Unfit to Teach Our Children.
(From the Martinsburg Pioneer Press.)
This paper has no retraction to make in the Major Moton affair. It thought then and knows now that no improvement was made by his prosecution. Washington's palliation gave us double for work for manhood rights not only in the North as well as the North as for untold years to come, and his successor's ambition is to be patted on the back and be called "a good darker"—to the lower regions and "a good darker" class. Any man who goes on his wife when abused for contending with her paid for, to ride in a PULLMAN car to unit lead and teach our children.
Stand Squarely for Justice
Major Moton, please don't assume the attitude of an apologist. We are hoping for big things from you. We know you appreciate the difficulties of your position. Stand squarely and firmly for justice. Stand squarely and firmly for justice. Apology is due from either Mrs. Moton or yourself, because as a cultured and refined woman she preferred to in a "Jim Crow" Pulman rather than in a "Jim Crow" car in which "equal accommodations" are not provided, and in which the conditions are sedum sanitary or pleasant.
(From the Richmond Planet.)
Principal R. R. Moton has gone to work. It would be well for him to keep at it and to have nothing further to say about that Pullman sleeping car incident.

MRS. JULIA ST. CLAIR
Has Been Called From Earth to a Home Beyond the Skies.
The young may die, but the old must die, is an old but true saying, therefore the passing away of one who is verging on three score and ten does not grate so harshly upon us as when one is taken in the flower of youth, yet the Grim Monster is an unwelcome visitor at any time. Mrs. Julia St. Clair had not needed the services of a physician for more than thirty years, but on last Saturday after an illness of about two months, she passed into the great beyond, aged about 68 years.
The deceased was the mother of Mrs. Grace Ferguson, 456 St. Anthony avenue, with whom she resided at the time of her death, of heart failure. She also has a daughter, Mrs. Ella Cook, living at Point Douglass, Minn. Besides the two daughters mentioned she leaves her own mother, Mrs. Miura Carr, aged 84, who lives with Mrs. Erna St. Paul, eight grand children and one great, great grand child to mourn her. Her funeral was held on last Monday afternoon at the house at 2:00 at St. James A. M. E. church, of which she was a faithful member, at 2:30 o'clock.
The funeral services were conducted by the pastor Rev. J. P. Sims, the music was led by Mr. Robert S. Strong. There was a large concourse of friends of the deceased present and there were many beautiful floral tributes. Lyles was funeral director, the pallbearer, one of the grandons of the deceased and at Oakland in the lot belonging to her life-time friend, Mrs. Lottie Patterson, of Anoka, who desired to have her friend laid to rest there.
The deceased was one of the founders of Brown Chapel, Hastings, Minn. over 20 years ago, of which Rev. J. C. Anderson was pastor.
McKNIGHT-McCOY WEDDING.
As generally is the case in publishing accounts of weddings and lists of presents and their donors, there are some errors, some inadvertent omissions and also some presents are received after the publication of the account. Such was the case in the account of the McKnight-McCoy wedding publisher last week which errors, omissions and additions are herein. In the list of those giving the embossed silver fragrant bowls the names of Mr. and Mrs. J. M. Allison, Messrs. Miles Cannon, James Combs, George Brady, Jasper and Hiram Gibbs were omitted.
In Mrs. J. Jones' club, the names of Mr. and Mrs. Ward Johnson were omitted.
The groom's present to the bride, a Circassian walnut bed-room suite of four pieces, was inadvertently omitted.
Additional presents were:
Beautiful white silk hosiery, Mrs. R. Stokes.
Hill-faced zenil towels, Mr. and Mrs. I. S. Ashe.
Hand-painted china compote, Mr. and Mrs. A. B. White.

MISS ELNORA RODNEY.
A Charming Young Lady of the Zenith City by the Unsalted Sea.
Miss Elnora Rodney, of Duluth, Minnesota, is visiting Attorney and Mrs. J. Louis Ervin, of 478 West Central Street, for a few weeks.
Miss Rodney, who is, in reality, the belle of Duluth, was the only one of her race to graduate from the Central High School of Duluth this year. She expects to matriculate in the College of Pharmacy, University of Minnesota, this fall.
Miss Rodney's path has not been strewn with roses. She has reached her goal only after passing many re-

verses, and with a determined effort
work, work and nothing but work.
Miss Rodney is a sister to Wallace O. Rodney, who was employed as bookkeeper at a salary of $125.00 per month, by P. McDonald, contractor of Duluth, and who, while out at one of the company's camps near Bemidji, Minnesota, last November, was accidentally shot through the thigh by a deer hunter, and will be a cripple the remainder of his life by reason of it. This happened just at the time Miss Rodney is making her most努力 effort in her high school career, but with undaunted courage she pushed forward to a successful end, and is entitled to the plaudits of her many friends.
MRS. EMMA PORTER-CRAWFORD
Has Gone the Way of AH the World to
Await the Resurrection Morning.
In the midst of life death is ever
near, was sadly exemplified in the pass-
ing away of Mrs. Emma Porter-Craw-
ford which occurred at Prince Rupert,
B. C., July 1, 1916.
The remains of the deceased were
shipped to St. Paul to her aunt, Mrs.
Emma Jackson, of Anoka, Minn. The
body arrived Sunday, July 9, and was
taken charge of by the undertaker,
T. H. Lyles, and the funeral services
were held in his mortuary chapel on
Tuesday, July 11th, at 2:30 o'clock,
Rev. E. H. McDonald, pastor of Mem-
eral Baptist church, officiating. The
chapel was filled with the friends of
the deceased and many floral tributes
and casketed in addition to those
that were sent with the remains
by loving friends in Prince Rupert.
The funeral discourse was one of the
most masterful of the eloquent divine
and was listened to with wrap attention.
The music for the funeral was
furnished by Prof. W. A. Weir, who
presided at the organ.
Mrs. Belle Telle sang as a solo, "Calvary" with Mrs. Irene Harris as accompanist.
She served the services Rev. McDonald read, the following obituary:
Thirty-five years ago, in the village of Clarksville, Texas, Emma Porter Crawford was born. A few years after the mother who had dreams for her little one and whose loving hands made plans for her life, closed her eyes in death and laid in the arms of a devoted sister, Mrs. Emma Glover Jackson this little daughter. Mrs. Glover Jackson came to St. Paul, bringing in 1886 a collection of years that followed in care and training could be purchased by the steady grinding of toil and sacrifice on the part of the devoted aunt-mother, Mrs. Glover Jackson, was showered upon Emma, and in 1897 she was graduated from St. Joseph Catholic Seminary with splendid academic and Christian training, as well as a talented, accomplished musician and artist together with all the charm of beautiful young womanhood thus she who lies before us stood on the threshold of young womanhood upon upon with glad, joyous vision, blessed with accomplishments, admired and respected, with a wonderful opportunity to make the most of life. Ere long she was wooped and won in far-off Nashville, Tenn. As she entered into motherhood she missed and yearned for that wonderful mother-love of "Aunt Em," and when she made her way back with two little ones the loving arms of the devoted mother-aunt enfolded her in a long and well-responsible care of the great responsibility of the care and ing unaided by the father's protection and assistance, or even by an encouraging message as the years rolled by. And so Boyd and Vivian Crawford came also under the care and protection of Aunt Emma.
On Saturday, July 1st, at Prince Rupert, Alberta, Canada, Emma Morter-Crawford closed her eyes on the operating table, and when she awoke she stood in the presence of the God from whence she came. She leaves to mourn her loss two children, Boyd and Vivian Crawford, her aunt, Mrs. Emmia Thameson, a brother, William A. Porter, a sister and other relatives in the southland.
She was for several years organist at St. Peter Claver church and at that time rendered by her talent much valuable service to the social and civic organizations of this city.
Mrs. Jackson, Mr. Porter and the daughter and son of the deceased desire to tender their thanks to all friends for their expressions of sympathy and sorrow at their bereavement.
Interment at Oakland cemetery.

HONOR COLORED SOLDIER
HEROES OF CARRIZAL.
The National Equal Rights League
suggests and urgently advises that
everywhere Colored Americans hold
Memorial meetings in honor of the
colored cavalrymen who were sacri-
ficed in Mexico and died bravely fight-
ing for the flag which does not pro-
tect them at home. It would be most
fitting to eulogize these black heroes
right now, and appeal for equal rights
for their race. White Irish-Americans
are eulogizing Irish rebels of Ireland.
A citizens’ committee could be formed
at once in every city,
Boston’s meeting will be in old
Fanouil hall, July 6th.
Pres. Byron Gunner, Hillburn, N. Y.,
will be glad to get a notice of ail
such meetings,

RACE PRIDE.
When I am dead,
Write not above 'my grave:
“He was a Christian man, and gave
Of his scant store to feed ‘the poor.”
“And paid his tithes and loved his
neighbor well.”
For these things be of God and He
will tell
Me what my blessings are,
When 1 stand before “is. judgment
ar.
But write instead—and plainly I im-
plore:
“Here lies a Race Man,” just that,
nothing more,
From o'er the palisade
Of heaven's harborage,
‘My soul, after a thousand years will
see
A race new-bom in Freedom's sanc-
tity,
Esteeming one who, long before his
age,
Boasted of Negro blood and parent-
‘age.
