THE TULSA STAR
A BASE PLOT
Tawyer Matin Engages In Joint Conspiracy To Put The Star Out Of Business.
Makes Trip To Sapulpa With Ex-Manager Of The Star To Get Money For The Purpose.
Two weeks ago it was announced in the editorial columns of this paper that another conspiracy to the editor was about to be unearthied and we served notice that the fireworks would be put off when all details were in.
This conspiracy was lower, harder, meaner and more cowardly even than the rumored conspiracy a few weeks ago to do personal violence to the editor. It was planned and entered into primarily by two men, one a so-called ingrate who had been discharged as manager of this paper and the other an inconspicuous pedant, who had no other reason to seek and encourage the downfall of the Star and its editor than the general principles peculiar to his character. The former was W. H. Cooter and the latter Freeman L. Martin.
Four Sapulpa by Martin to the Tulsa Star. It was fraternal work for a secret order of which the Star is the official organ and supposed to do all the printing of said order in this State. Martin is a prominent figure in the works of this order and had he can half the MAN that he precluded to be and swore he would be to become a member of the order.
He would have delivered the work to the Tulsa Star. Even had not the editor belonged to the same order and his paper not the official organ, he would have delivered the work to us had he been true to mainly principles.
But instead he took the work to a white printing office where not even a codored janitor is employed after telling the editor that he had it and would deliver it to him. The editor called at his of
Carter has circulated many evil and malicious falsehoods against the editor of this paper and tried in every man he could to do all the harm posits, revenge. He was joined in his base undertaking to Freeman L. Martin, a local lawyer whose name, even his picture, has often appeared in the column of this paper beating him at the expense of the editor. Together these two repreate went to Sailpa two weeks ago for the express purpose of inducing Dr. Hareyrey and Mr. Hutton to borrow money from the employment department of the Kind L. of H. to buy the Star printing plant, circulating the else report that the Star had one out of business and that they would buy it out. Their man in this case, how ver, did it carry and they returned to falsa sadder but wiser phools.
There is no class of men worse than an ingrate and this W. H. Carter has proved himself to be the editor of The Star has in his possession letters from Carter he was in Sedalia begining a job and asking for money to be to Tulsa on His request granted and he came "all to bad." Soon after his connection with The Star he began "conning and consiving" against editor, his emerger and benevoler, which created in his dismal After he went about conning false reports re-ferencing the editor. But the jacket found him out and will design him to the same fate that awaits all of his kind somewhere on the wayside.
Martin's connection with the morality was for personal gain notoriety, but his hopes in the case, like his erstwhile Haythan ambassadorship dream, went glittering. The curtains are drawn and Martin, the great leader of the race, man, will be revenge to the public in his true color. It is with much regret that we are thus drawn into this fight but every man has a moral right to fight in self defense and since our enemies have placed us in false light it is our purpose to defend ourselves by showing them in their true light that the public may know the full truth. We oath to say that Lawyer Martin, in our opinion, is a disfavor to the profession he follows because he is not an honorable man a menace to the community or the same reason, and a traitor to his race. He preends to be a race man but his actions belie his words.
SUCCESSOR TO THE MUSKOGE STAR
TULSA, OKLAHOMA, FRIDAY, AUG. 29 1913
from Sapulpa by Martin to the Tulsa Star. It was fraternal work for a secret order of which the Star is the official organ and supposed to do all the printing of said order in this State. Martin is a prominent figure in the works of this order and had he even half the MAX that he preended to be and swore he would be to become a member of the order.
He would alve delivered the work to the Tulsa Star. Even had not the editor belonged to the same order and his paper not the official organ, he would have delivered the work to us had he even true to many principles.
But instead he took the work to a white printing office where not even a codored jankor is employed after telling the editor that he had it and would deliver it to him. The editor called at his office for it and he mistated facts by representing that he had renamed the copy to Sapulpa when he knew full well it was at that time in another shop here in town. We leave it to the public whether his was the action of an honorable race man.
There is no excuse that he can offer which will excuse his actions in this unjust and malicious conspiracy. We are not publishing this because we feel "sore" because we did not get what was justly ours, but because we want the public to know why Martin and Carter are circulating false reports about the Stars. If either Martin or Carter desire to reply to this article the columns of his paper are open to them.
This now is the calibre of the men who are trying to discredit and record the progress of The Star. We submit our case to the public on the merits alone and we are willing to abide by the verdict.
Dry Farming Congress Notes
The International Dry-Farming Congress, which meets in this city in October-is one of the biggest things going and the farmers of Oklahoma should make the best possible of the meeting and discussions. Dry-Farming is an art that should be known to every tiller of the soil and this will be a splendid opportunity for all farmers to improve their knowledge of the art. The Board of Managers are planning a big building to be erected exclusively for colored farmers, and while there is no need of this kind of discrimination, it will be a great advantage to the colored farmers inasmuch as they can the more effectively display their exhibits.
At Harlow's Big Bankrupt Sale
One of the biggest and best sales of the season is said to be going on at the Harlow Brokerage store on South Main street. This company makes a business of buying bankrupt stocks and selling it to the buying public at bargain prices. One noticeable feature of this store is the excellent atray of salesladies and salesmen, all of whom are very courteous and anxious to serve the purse. Mr. Harlow, the pro-meritor, is a man of exceptional qualities and deserves the trade he gets.

Game To The Core
New York Gov Files Charges
The latest from New York impeachment case is that Gov. Sulzer has filed charges of conspiracy against his political enemies—the Tammany gang and is preparing to put up a stiff fight, not only to clear himself of impeachment, but punish his persecutors. The impeachment trial comes up next month.
East End
Another brawl was pulled of on North Greenwood las Sunday, the principals being women of the underworld. The fight caused considerable excitement as such scenes usually cause and served to call the attention to the need of two policemen in this end of town. One patrolman cannot keep order in the East End because to do so would be necessary for him to remain on his beat continually which is impracticable.
The ministership to Hayti has been taken from the colored constituency and given to a white man, says the latest report from Washington. This will end the political dream of a number of colored democrats who have hoped for the best.
Francie Carter, who was wanted by the police for the murder of Friday Williams about a year ago, was arrested early this week in a raid at Bawtlesville. Police man Williams was sent after him and he is now in the county jail agitating trial.
The news comes from Newata that Prof. Grubs, principal of the colored school at that place was shot and killed there by a barber

Appreciative Guest.
A somewhat parsimonious couple in Edinboro invited a friend to dine with them on a Monday, and when the joint was laid on the table it proved to be the remains of Sunday's roast heated up. Whereupon the guest remarked that this appeared to me "an' auld frien' with a new face." This, however, did not prevent his doing justice to the fare provided, and upon departing he said: "Well, good-night; I've had an enjoyable evening, and you have always the consolation that it hasn't cost you much."

STATE SCHOOL LAND COMMISSIONERS ADVERTISE ARKANSAS RIVER BED LANDS FOR LEASING
CONVICT LABOR FOR IRRIGATION
E. B. HOWARD TELLS OF GREAT RESULTS ACCOMPLISHED IN COLORADO
EMPLOYMENT OF CONVICT LABOR
Results in Millions of Dollars Improvement to Farm Lands and Roads—Can Be Duplicated in Oklahoma
B. B. Howard, secretary and member of the Oklahoma State Board of Public Affairs, has returned from a vacation trip of three weeks, spent in Colorado. Because of his observation of the highly successful irrigation projects in Colorado Mr. Howard is an enthusiast over the subject of irrigation for Oklahoma.
"During my vacation," he says, "I took the opportunity to investigate and study the great benefits irrigation has been to the state of Colorado, and I am more than ever impressed with the suggestion that I made a year ago, relative to devising some plan for using our convict labor and placing Oklahoma farms in position to be irrigated during such seasons as we have had this year.
"While in Colorado I inspected several farms and tracts of land which

have been benefited by irrigation and from the nature of the soil that I saw and a study of the conditions in Oklahoma, I am confident that irrigation would be entirely feasible in this state, and that nothing like the amount of water would be required for our purposes as I found to be necessary at these places, for the reason that a study of the rainfall in Oklahoma since its first settlement shows that every year there is sufficient precipitation to raise bumper crops were it properly distributed and were we to place ourselves in position to preserve the water that falls in the winter and spring and early summer months, and that good crops could be insured each year.
"There is no doubt but what Oklahoma soil is more productive than many tracts of land I saw in Colorado which were producing immense crops by reason of irrigation.
"In Denver I inspected the display of the agricultural products of that state, and especially those which had been produced on irrigated land. It was a surprise to see the quality and quantity, of different kinds of crops, such as wheat, corn, oats, sugar beets, etc., that are being produced in that state on land which, previous to the days of irrigation, would grow nothing save short grass and cactus.
"After an Investigation of these plants and other products and a study of the conditions in Colorado, I can see great possibilities for Oklahoma agricultural interests if our people will only take up the matter of irrigation and a preservation of our rainfall.
"There may be other ways in which it would be better to do this work, but figuring that we have several hum-
Two miles of the bed of the Arkansas river, immediately adjacent to Turkey Island, and a large portion of school land located in seven different counties, were ordered to be advertised for lease for oil and gas purposes by the school land commissioners. None of the land to be advertised for lease has been passed on by the oil and gas experts of the school land department. The leasing of the lands is authorized by the commissioners in response to requests received from prospectors, who are willing to give bend, lease the land and put down test wells. The lands to be leased are: Section 16, township 12 north, range 6 east, Lincoln county; west half section 36, township 12 north, range 6

dred men in our penitentiaries and reformatories for whom we must necessarily provide means of employment and believing that it would be better to use these men in improving our agricultural interests, which at the same time would mean the improvement of our towns and cities, until some better means of doing this can be found. I have made up my mind to urge upon the people of this state to take up this matter and keep it before the public until such time as some kind of arrangements are made to put our farms in better condition than at the present, and I urge a movement that will immediately put these unemployed men who are being supported by the state, to the work of building dams, ponds or some other arrangements for preserving the moisture that we need during the months of July and August, when we have a dry year in this country.
"I believe Oklahoma could take up no better slogan than that which has been recently broached in Missouri of 'WATER FOR EVERY FARM.'
"It has been suggested that reservoirs be established along rivers to take care of the overflow waters. Perhaps that scheme could be carried out, but why shouldn't a state commission or someone, take up the subject and work out a plan? Perhaps it might be better for each county to handle its own problem, but be that as it may, let's do something! I think it would be a mistake for us to let the lesson of this season be wasted. We are going to have such seasons as this occasionally, and we might as well make up our minds to do what we can to reduce the evils by making reasonable preparations for preserving our water and having it at such times as this when it would mean so much to our people and to this state.
"In addition to studying the matter of irrigation while away, I also took occasion to observe the many good roads built by the state of Colorado, with their convict labor. These good roads have been one of Colorado's greatest assets and have not only meant a great convenience to the citizens but have attracted the investment of thousands of dollars in that state.
"I talked with people who had charge or had an interest in the work during the time these roads were being built by the convicts of Colorado and without exception found that everyone and every person cognizant of what had been done, not only praised the officials of the State for their work, but assured me that the very fact of working these convicts out on the roads in the fresh air and the better treatment, made of them, when their terms expired, better men, and those whose terms had not yet expired, better prisoners.
"In fact, from every standpoint, Colorado is greatly benefited by reason of working convicts upon her roads, and why should Oklahoma not do likewise?"
"The conditions are such that as good, if not better, roads can be made for a minimum cost and a minimum amount of work, as compared with the roads that it was necessary for Colorado to build through her canyons and mountains.
"Good roads and a practical application of some scheme or other, yet to be figured out, of irrigation, would be the greatest thing that Oklahoma can do for herself. It would not only assure to our farmers, crops each year, but would assure to every mechanic and laborer in this state, work at his own trade in the future, with good roads over which to transport the products of our irrigated farms. The improvement by reason of these roads and this irrigation would mean yearly a great deal more to our state than some of our rich mineral interests to which we pay so much attention at the present time.
"I suggest that the people of Oklahoma take up the matter of good roads and irrigation and that no stone be left unturned until both are an accomplished fact, and in this suggestion I ask that every man in this state, who is interested in this movement, either communicate with me or in some way start an agitation and keep at it until these things are an accomplished fact."

Filed away among the records in our sanctum sanctorum we have a list of our enemies with their public records which we keep for reference. This enables us to show the public, if need be, the class of men who wantonly oppose and villify us.
We realize that we are not very popular with a certain class of their energy fighting corruption—if they can make up their minds people in Tulsa, but we also realize that every good cause has its enemies. We ask no quarter from our enemies. We ask only for a square deal.
Don't fail to sign the petition to President Wilson protesting against the insult of Jim Crowism in the White House which appeases on the front page. Do your duty. Sign it yourself and get others to sign it. Then cut out the petition and mail it to the Tuisa Star, Tuisa, Okla.
The Chamber of Commerce seems to be a thing of the past in spite of the efforts on the part of Mr. Welts to revive the organization, after two years of inaction under the leadership of Freeman L. Martin. The colored people have demonstrated their lack of confidence in this man and in this case at least their judgment has been justified.
It is rumored that Martin and Carter will launch a newspaper in a near future for the avowed purpose of putting the Star out of business. The Star welcomes the advent of another weekly even if it ones antagonizing us. We would suggest however, that they spread their energy fighting corruption—if they can make up their minds to do so.
Now that Patrolman Dillard has been removed the question naturally arises: "Who will be the next patrolman appointed to fill his place?"
It is necessary to have two good men to insure proper protection for the people of East End and we feel confident that the police commissioner will do his best to get a man favorable to the better class of people of this community.
Whenever, he is, he should have all the courage and other good qualities of a gentleman, a full sense of duty, with a high regard for his oath of loyalty and deference for his superior officers.
He should be fearless in the performance of his duty and blind to favoritism. Any police officer should be a material help to the

WILL LAW AND
The public sore and unisex at 216 E. Archer is still running wide open, in full view of the passing public and in contemptuous disregard for all decency, either in open defiance of the law or in spite of it. The house in question is on the principal thoroughfare for the citizens of the East End, and is inhabited by a reckless class of white prostitutes who may be plainly seen by the passer by, prancing about the house in kine dresses or sitting on the laps of their drunken and dissipated consorts in a manner highly disgusting and shocking to respectable people who must pass along this way. A month or two ago all the houses in this vicinity were occupied by colored people of the same class, and because of the rotten conditions caused thereby the Star began a successful campaign against them, and all of the house were cleaned out and most of the inmates ferred to leave town, subsequently of the houses, expt 216 E. Archer was forced by respectable colored people most of whom have children and one door west of the kine question lives a quiet, respectful family with several little children, all of whom are entitled to, and ought to have ample protection from the evil examples of the underworld. These families moved into the houses because the officers had announced that these princess of vice and shame would not be permitted to plly their trade in this district.
The Star was emphatic and determined in its fight against certain conditions caused by the presence of Negro prostitutes along this street, and when the same or worse unwholesome conditions obtain now because of the presence of white prostitutes who have substituted the black ones, the Star will again shoulder arms for the cause of the common people and (for continually until) the property is given or until our duty trails the dust.
it, and the good Christian people of Tulsa, white and black, should take up the fight and push it to a successful end.
The Colored tenants, it is said, have appealed to the owner of the house, but in vain. If there is not already a city ordinance ample to protect decent people of this city from such damnable outrage as this the Christian people should visit the city council and insist that such ordinance be enacted. How long would a house of Negro prostitutes stand in a respectable white community? Not many hours, because the torch would be abolied and the inmates driven out like so many dogs.
Here is a respectable Colored community, made so by cleaning out the lower element of Negroes and renting the houses to respectable Colored people, where the tender minds of little children are being trained, infected with reckless prostitutes, engaged in daily practice of vice and immorality in its lowest form. Heaven must frown upon those responsible for these conditions and hell smiles a welcome to them. A petition to Mayor Wooden will doubtless bring the desired relief. Those who wish to sign a petition asking that the house at 216 E. Archer be closed will please come to the Tulsa Star office, 501 N. Greenwood.

The hotels and other public places in New York cannot discriminate against the Colored people and other races after September 1, when the new civil rights law passed by the last legislature goes into effect. Under the new law it is a fine of $100/ with imprisonment for the proprietor of any hotel, rooming house or any kind of public place where discrimination is allowed on account of race or color. This is certainly a progressive step on the part of the Empire state and it is hoped that such civilization will eventually come about in other states.

Mr. William A. Radford will answer questions and give advice FREE OF COST on all subjects pertaining to the subject of building, for the readers of this paper. On account of his wide experience as Editor, Author and Manufacturer, he is, without doubt, the highest authority on all these subjects. Address all inquiries to William A. Radford, No. 178 West Jackson boulevard, Chicago, Ill., and only enclose two-cent stamp for reply.
The majority of people have to figure pretty closely in approaching the building problem. At least, it is well for them to do so, even those who have an abundance of the "wherewithal."
This is a cottage house plan, 32 feet 8 inches wide by 42 feet 8 inches long, exclusive of the porch. Ten feet of the length, however, is accounted for by the kitchen extension, so that the main part of the house is not very large.
It is intended to be a cheap affair. The word "cheap" in this instance is used in its better sense, meaning good value for what it costs. The word "cheap" has been shamefully abused. Such slang phrases as "cheap skate," "cheap John," etc. has given a snide value to a good old-fashioned English

word which originally meant "bargain." As this little house can be built under favorable circumstances for about $1,000, the word "bargain" should apply without any qualifications.
The value of a house is not always in its size. It is more in after comfort and continuous convenience. There are many small families living in crowded quarters who would have much better accommodations than they are accustomed to, if they lived in a

little house like this, erected in the outskirts of town, where fresh air and sunshine may be had in quantities sufficient to promote health and good looks.
The arrangement of the rooms is very simple; and while the finish is good and neat, there is nothing expensive about the house. The plan calls for a good cellar with a concrete wall, or with stone wall properly laid and coated on the outside with a half-inch layer of Portland cement mortar to insure a dry cellar.
There is room in every town and city for hundreds of such houses. Transportation is so easy, quick and convenient on account of the new electric trolley lines, that there is no longer any excuse for people huddling together in small, badly lighted, unventilated apartments, except in very large cities.
The large veranda across the front gives the house a good appearance.

The specifications provide for good mortar that is to be gaged with cement when used below grade line, and beam filling between and alongside of all joists on top of the wall by fitting brick closely underneath the floor. It is also provided that the cellar bottom shall be leveled off and paved with brick, or it may be laid down in the more modern concrete if the foundation bed is properly prepared. There are a sloop sink and catch basin provided, the same as for larger and more expensive houses.
Is this the Mroog Dthr TdE
Another feature never seen in cheap houses until lately is the cement waincoting in the kitchen. The use of cement for this purpose has many advantages. It is dry and rat-proof, and it has a good, smooth, hard surface that may be stained or painted any desired color.
For the first time in her life she stood at the railway station about to make a trip. She was much agitated. Gazing about, her eyes fell on the train announcer as "the friend in need."
"Young man," she spoke, "can you tell me where to get my ticket?"
The banality of a sea poem by Alfred Noyes led a Philadelphia sonneteer at the Franklin inn to say: "This poem of the sea reminds me of a young woman from Illinois who saw the Atlantic for the first time last week at Cape May. "As she stood on the windy beach, gazing dreamily out over the vast blue expanse of tumbling water, I said to her: "So this is the first time you've ever seen the sea, eh?"

It takes away the plainness, and, in fact, is the main difference in outward appearance between this little modern cottage and the old-fashioned one-story house that everybody avoided if possible. But there are other and more important improvements in the new construction. Modern methods of using building paper, cement, better mortar, and better plaster, are working wonders in the comfort of such little houses. It is just as cheap to use these materials as to build a house in the old-fashioned way. In fact, in some instances, a saving of money and labor may be effected while improving the building.
Thought He Was "Fresh."
"Right there at the ticket window," he replied, jerking his thumb, "through the pigeonhole."
She regarded the hole and the train announcer. Her face grew crimson at the fancied insult.
"You be off!" she yelled, as she recovered her breath. "How on earth am I to get through that hole? I ain't no pigeon."
It Excited Her Appetite.
"Yes, the very first time," she answered.
"And what do you think of it?" I asked.
"Ah," she said, with an ecstatic smile, "it smells just like oysters!"

AFRO-AMERICAN CULLINGS
To serve and uplift the negro race by training its girls and young women to be good cooks and good laundresses is the purpose of the National Training School for Women and Girls—an awkward title for one of the most interesting experiments in vocational education yet made in this country, says the Baltimore American. The primary object is not to train girls to be servants, but to train them so that, if they do become servants they will be good ones, and if they become housewives in homes of their own they will be efficient there. To this end this school has subordinated the conventional three R's of the conventional school to the unconventional three B's of this particular school. To quote from the school catalogue: "The aim is to make practical use of the three B's—the Bible, the bathtub and the broom. The Bible is the text book for all students, and by daily study and teaching students will be brought to value it as the best guide for action. The positive power of the bathtub in refining and developing one's physical powers is dwelt upon; physical cleanliness is required. The broom holds third place in importance in the practical scheme. The negro home is suffering more from the lack of women who know how to make and maintain a home than anything else. This school is established to train housekeepers and home makers. Every student is taught how to work and must not be lacking in a disposition to do so. A clean life, a clean body and a clean home are all that the humblest member of the race needs to insure real advancement. We shall conform to the actual needs of the race regardless of present educational methods and notions."
The Grand Imperial court of the Daughters of Isis closed its annual session at Indianapolis with the decision of the following officers: Grand imperial commandress, Mrs. Cassie Melker, St. Paul, Minn.; grand imperial deputy commandress, Mrs. Priscilla Smith, Baltimore, Md.; first grand imperial lieutenant, Mrs. Anna D. Groves, St. Louis; grand imperial treasurer, Mrs. Laura Williams, Washington, D. C.; imperial grand recordress, Mrs. Laura Harris, Memphis, Tenn.; first grand imperial ceremonial daughter, Mrs. Ward, Philadelphia, Pa.; second ceremonial daughter, Mrs. Marion Price, New York city; oriental guide, Mrs. Anna Fisher, Pittsburgh, Pa.; grand imperial inner spy, Mrs. Gertrude Pritchett, Indianapolis; grand imperial outer spy, Mrs. Anna Crooker, Chicago; imperial recorder, Levi Williams, Jersey City, N. J.; imperial treasurer, J. Frank Blagburn, Washington, D. C.; imperial oriental guide, George H. Wharton, Philadelphia, Pa.; imperial grand marshal, Howard W. Pinn, Boston. The next meeting of the council will be held at Pittsburgh, Pa., the first week in August, 1914.
The State Colored Farmers' congress met recently at Prairie View, Texas. The subject of scientific farming is one that the colored people can address themselves to with the promise of benefits no less substantial than result from similar meetings on the part of the white people. The possibilities of Texas agriculture are unlimited, and intelligent co-operation in placing the industry on a higher plane of intelligence cannot be too strongly presented to the congress, who constitute so large a proportion of the working forces on the farms of South Texas, particularly.
"The Negro Yearbook" is a publication prepared by Monroe N. Work, a member of the staff of Tuskegee Institute, to summarize facts concerning the negroes. It ought to have a wide circulation, for it presents material of great interest, showing the really remarkable progress made by a race just out of slavery. Fifty years ago, for instance, the negroes owned only a few thousand dollars' worth of church property. Now their church holdings are valued at $57,000,000. In 1867 there were 800 schools for freedmen, with 2,000 teachers and 111,000 pupils. Last year there were 1,700,000 negro children enrolled in southern common schools, and 100,000 in normal schools and colleges, with 34,000 teachers.
An official statistical review of the silk production of mulberry leaves and silk cocoons in Spain from 1901 to 1910 shows that this industry is confined to 12 provinces, which yielded in the decade 346,772 metric tons of leaves and 12,674 tons of cocoons.

Negroes in New York say they will boycott an exposition which will be held in that city in October to commemorate the fiftieth anniversary of their freedom, unless the governor heeds hundreds of letters protesting against the work of nine negro commissioners he appointed and orders the commission to change its course. Hunter C. Haynes, a negro who helped draft the bill passed by the legislature last April, appropriating $25,000 for an industrial exposition and celebration, says the commission is planning an exposition to consist of sociological congresses, charts and African curios. Others of the colored race are demanding the work and progress of the negroes of New York state be portrayed, since the bill specifically states the exposition is to be for that purpose: "Fifty years of my race's most serious history," Haynes said, "have been connected with political degradation. Now, when we plan an exposition designed to do good, this commission makes a partisan affair of its work. It will be impossible to give a creditable exposition in such a short time. Nothing tangible has yet been done. More than $3,000 has been spent in salaries and in carrying out impractical ideas."
In appointing Madison R. Smith minister to Haiti, President Wilson broke through a custom of giving this post to a colored man. Mr. Smith is a former member of congress, having served in the Sixtieth congress as representative from the Thirteenth Missouri district. The present minister to Haiti is Dr. Henry W. Furniss, colored, of Indianapolis. This is the second important post given to colored men in the last administration which has been filled by President Wilson with a man of another race. The register of the treasury, a position which has for years been held by a colored man, is to be filled now by a full-blooded Chocktaw Indian, Gabe E. Parker of Oklahoma. The president originally appointed Adam E. Patterson, a colored man, as register, but, when it became apparent that he could not be confirmed Patterson asked the president to withdraw his name.
The United States bureau of education, in co-operation with the trustees of the Phelps-Stokes fund, has announced that it is making a study of private and higher schools for colored youths. A report of the equipment of the different schools, their work and their place in the educational system with which they are connected, will be publisher later. The Phelps-Stokes fund is the residuary estate, amounting to about $1,000,000, bequeathed by Miss Caroline Phelps-Stokes of New York for various philanthropic purposes, among which is the education of colored boys and girls. Gifts have been made to the University of Virginia, University of Georgia and to the Peabody college in Nashville, Tenn., for the maintenance of fellowships and research work in the field of colored education. A number of smaller sums also have been given for related purposes.
Emphasizing the importance of self-help among the negroes of the south, leaders in the negro Methodist Episcopal church in Alabama have laid plans whereby it is hoped to raise at least $16,000 during the summer for the work of Miles Memorial college, the connectional school for negroes in this state.
The election of officers of the Imperial Council of Colored Mystic Shriners was the most important incident of the closing of the fifteenth annual session at Indianapolis. John H. Murphy of Baltimore, for the last eight years imperial recorder, was unanimously elected to the office of imperial potentate. Mr. Murphy is a native of Baltimore, where he conducts a large job printing establishment, and has for the last 21 years been owner and publisher of the Afro-American Ledger. He has been identified with the colored Masonic circles for 38 years. The other officers are deputy imperial potentate, Joseph L. Sherwood, St. Paul, Minn.; imperial chief rabban. George McKing, St. Louis, Mo.; imperial assistant rabban, Clarence E Dunlap, Indianapolis.

Witchcraft.
In many parts of the world—Greece, for instance—the believer in witchcraft still gets hold, by hook or by crook, of hair, nail parings and so forth from an enemy's head and hands and burns, buries or does something else with them in order to entail unpleasant consequences upon that enemy. And universal folklore reveals the concern of savages to dispose of their own hair and nail clippings to prevent an enemy from getting at them. Australian native girls, having had a lock of hair stolen from them, expected speedy death as a certainty.

HE CARRIED AN UMBRELLA.
A dear old lady who was very "sot" in her prejudices was asked just why she didn't like a certain man. She had no particular reason that she could think of at the instant, but she had been so emphatic in her expression of dislike that she knew she would have to find some excuse—at once. Just at that moment she happened to glance out of the window and saw him passing by. He carried a neatly rolled umbrella though it hardly threatened rain.
Quick as a flash she answered her questioner, "He carries an umbrella whether it's raining or not—he is a 'softie.'"
"But," said her friend, also looking out of the window, "here comes your son William, and he is carrying an umbrella."
This did not stump the old lady. "But that's another matter—I don't like him anyhow—and besides, it all depends on who carries the umbrella," she replied triumphantly.
That is the position some people have taken regarding that wholesome and refreshing beverage Coca-Cola. They have said a good many unkind things about it and in each instance have had it proved to them that their tales were not true.
Finally they seized upon the fact that Coca-Cola gets much of its refreshing delicousness from the small bit of caffeine that it contains. They looked upon that as a splendid argument against it. Then, like the old lady who was reminded of son William, they were reminded that it is the caffeine in their favorite beverages, tea and coffee, (even more than in Coca-Cola) that gives them their refreshing and sustaining qualities.
But does that stop their criticism of Coca-Cola for containing caffeine? No—their answer is similar to the old lady's—they say "But that's another matter"—what they mean is "Being prejudiced against Coca-Cola and liking tea or coffee, it all depends on what carries the caffeine."
We think the joke is on them—for caffeine is caffeine, and if it is not harmful in one it can't be harmful in another. We all know that it is not harmful in tea or coffee—that it is really helpful in whatever it is—this is bound to include Coca-Cola.
Of course, the truth is, that having started an attack on false premises and having had what they thought were good reasons for criticism proved to be no reasons at all, they are grasping at an excuse which does not exist, to explain a prejudice. So you see, after all, it all depends on who carries the umbrella to people who are determined to be unfair. Let us be fair.—Adv.
Caused Her Little Inconvenience.
A New York letter tells of a western girl, unused to the insidious cocktail, who was dining in a Broadway lobster palace. The dinner apparently was given in her honor. She gulped down her cocktail manfully but with a wry face. During the dinner her hostess noticed that her cheeks were flushed, that her eyes sparkled and her face beamed. The hostess felt a little concerned about her, but why, it was hard to sav, as she was not in the chicken class. Perhaps it was because of the loudness of her laugh and conversation. Anyway, the hostess leaned across the table to whisper to her, "Why, Kate, do you feel that cocktail?" "Oh, yes," was the westerner's reply with beaming face, "I feel it, but thas all right. It doesn't annoy me in the slightest."
ECZEMA DISFIGURED FACE
Hampton Springs,Fla.—"I had had eczema on my face and hands for about three years. My face was badly disfigured. The eczema broke out in pimples and itched so very badly I would scratch it all the time. It was the most irritating disease I ever had. It started on my face and hands and it spread all over my body. I had great large sores all over me, caused from the eczema. It bothered me day and night so that I could not rest at all.
"I used three remedies for skin disease and they didn't give relief at all. I was almost terrified until a friend recommended Cuticura Soap and Ointment to me. They helped me from the time I started to use them. I only used two cakes of Cuticura Soap and two boxes of Cuticura Ointment and was cured." (Signed) Mrs. E. C. Parker, Dec. 7, 1912.

WORLD'S GREATEST AUTO DAREDEVILS ENTER OKLAHOMA STATE FAIR AUTO RACES
LAF-EYE-5EE
290 Horse Power Jay-Eye-See, world's biggest gasoline dreadnaught entered in Oklahoma State Fair and Exposition auto races.
With entries assured from half a dozen of the world's greatest automobile dare-devils, the management of the Oklahoma State Fair and Exposition, Oklahoma City, September 23 to October 4, 1913, is going ahead with plans for the last two days of the fair, October 3 and 4, on a more elaborate scale than ever before. The presence of a galaxy of speed demons will furnish a fitting climax to all the big things that have gone before on other days of the big annual exhibition at Oklahoma City.
At the present time, a majority of the world's half mile track records

are held on Canadian tracks where most of the automobile competition takes place. There are no road races nor asemblance of a speedway in the northland. But of all the tracks raced on by the American drivers in Canada not one is superior to the Oktrack, and if Louis Disbrow has an lahoma State Fair and Exposition even break in luck during the Oklahoma State Fair races it is better than an even break that he will place a new mark in the record books for the mile speed trial. Before signing a contract to take part in the State Fair races on October 3 and 4, Disbrow paid the Fair track a visit, stopping off on his way from Galveston, Tex., between trains.
DEMOCRATS PLAN DAY AT THE STATE FAIR
William F. McCombs, chairman of the Democratic National Executive Committee of New York City, is to be the guest of the Young Men's League of Democratic Clubs of Oklahoma on Democratic Day at the State Fair in Oklahoma City, Wednesday, October 1. McCombs has accepted the invitation upon the condition that he will be present if his health permits. He is now in Germany recuperating from an operation for appendicitis and expects to arrive in the United States about September 1, coming to his former home in Arkansas for a few weeks rest.
Other speakers invited for the occasion are United States Senators Gore and Owen of Oklahoma, and Reed of Missouri, and Governor Lee Crue. The program will begin with a state-wide rally and banquet Tuesday night, September 30, which will consist of speeches by the younger

Disbrow is already well known in Oklahoma for his daring as he has twice stopped off on his way to Galveston, for the beach races, to give exhibitions at Tulsa, where he is a big favorite.
No sooner had the report spread over the state that Disbrow had accepted terms to take part in the Oklahoma State Fair races, than his friends at Tulsa, Sapulpa and Muskogee began making arrangements for tours to Oklahoma City on October

Of the drivers already entered in the Oklahoma State Fair and Exposition race meet, three of them hold world's records. Disbrow has to his credit no less than seventeen world's marks and is probably the biggest individual holder of speed honors in the gasoline world today.

State President W. B. Richards has called a meeting of the district chairmen of the several congressional districts and the members of the executive committee for the evening of September 30 at which time plans for extending the work of organization into every county of the state will be taken up and outlined.
President Richards announces that a silk banner will be offered as a prize for the congressional district bringing the largest delegation, and a silver loving cup will be presented by the Oklahoma County club to the largest county delegation. The Oklahoma county club will enter none of the contests, and will act as host for the visiting delegations.
Combination That Wins.
Some men are able and some are energetic; the winners are both.
A secret chamber was found by workmen while engaged in the belfry of St. Sampson's church, Guernsey, the Channel islands, containing a high altar, candlesticks, and the base of a censer. It is presumed that the articles were hidden at the time of the reformation and have remained there over 300 years.
Worth Knowing.
If a package of value is to be sent a great distance, it is an excellent idea to provide the box with a cover of unbleached muslin securely sewed in place. If the shelves and floors of closets are wiped with water which is hot and cayenne pepper, insects will be kept away. Borax and alum are good to put into the cracks.
Coaxing the Children.
A mother who wished her children to drink a glass of water each morning on rising, found it somewhat hard to interest them in the daily health drink. As an inducement she gave them a bundle fo confectioners' straws and now they enjoy their morning drink immensely.
