Vol. 2, No 34 Get in T Covering The Entire State of Race P Stron Wounded Man Refused Admission to Pottsville (Pa.) Hospital Dies. The evil effects or race prejudice were brought prominently to public view in Pottsville, Pa., on May 20, when an effort was made to have George Baxter, who had been severely wounded in a mine explosion, admitted to the Pottsville hospital. Martin Dolan, a contract miner for whom George Baxter worked, obtained a mandamus which would have admitted the wounded man to the hospital, but while the authorities of the institution were wrangling in court over Baxter' admission he died. One of Baxter's eyes had been blown out while at work and the other seriously injured, which required a speedy operation. Mr. Dolan offered to pay all the extra expense of a private ward but the hospital officials refused to permit Baxter's entrance until the board of managers consented, although a section in the charter of the hospital provides that no distinction shall be made in the treatment of patients on account of color or nationality. Sapulpa Has New Hotel Sapulpa Has New Hotel Only Colored Hotel in Stati With Private Buss and Baggage Line SAPULPA, OKLA.—JUNE, 19—The Colored people of this city are congratulating themselves for having the only hotel in the state operated by Colored people which has its own private cab and baggage line to convey guests of the hotel from the depot to the hotel. The hotel is known as the Great Western Hotel, owned and controled by E. D. Glass, a progressive citizen of Sapulpa, who has lived here about five years. Mr. Glass, saw the great need of a first class hotel in Sapulpa, for his people and realizing that he could materlly benefit his town as well as himself by supplying this need, he set in to do so. As a result Sapulpa, has acquired a new distinction. It is hoped that Mr. Glass, will succeed in his worthy enterprise and at present there is no reason to be leave he will not. Of course in every town and community there is a class of citizens who habitually oppose everything and everybody not of their particular choice or liking. But it is said that this spirit of petty jelousy does not exist in Sapulpa. SUBSCRIBE for THE STAR SUCCESSOR TO THE MUSKOGEE STAR TULSA, OKLAHOMA, SATURDAY JUNE 20, 1914 Wooley For Co. Sheriff 1930 There is no more familiar face in Tulsa than that of our well known commissioner, Mr. Woolley has served Tulsa county as commissioner for four years, and has performed his duties with such zeal and efficiency that there seems to be little doubt but that he will achieve the office for which he is running. Mr. Woolley has lived in Tulsa for twenty-seven years, coming here in the early days, when Tulsa was far from being the city it is now. Mr. Woolley has grown with the city and a more loyal man to his community is not to be found. Mr. Woolley has been in the coal business at Dawson for the last fourteen years. Mr. Wooley is a man who has the courage of his convictions, standing unflinchingly for what he knows to be right. No better man could be found for the office of sheriff than Mr. Wooley and the gratifying results of his term as-county commissioner seem to assure him an easy victory.—Tulsa County Chief. Grandfather Clause Hearing Expected Soon At almost any minute we are expecting an opinion in the Grandfather Clause, which we all understand as a law which deprives negroes of the right to vote at general elections in the state of Oklahoma. No one seems to doubt the outcome of the case and it is about conceded that the law will be declared unconstitutional and the rights of suffrage restored to all men as it should be.

BRYAN Address Howard Students SECRETARY W. J. BRYAN Address Howard Students MR. BRYAN SETS EXAMPLE FOR SPEAKERS. Secretary of State Bryan, in his splendid address at the commencement exercises of Howard University, set an example which other speakers who venture to address colored audiences would do well to follow. At no point n the hour which he spoke did Mr. Bryan refer to his hearers as "you hackneyed and annoying "your race" and "my race," which so many well intentioned Caucasians put into their talks to colored people. Mr. Bryan's speech was one that might have been delivered before any audience anywhere under the sun. It dealt in broad principles of life and living and was addressed to all humanity. A blind listener coming on the Howard University campus last Wednesday could not have told from anything Mr. Bryan said whether the crowd was black or white, Northern or southern, Republican or Democratic. There is no color, party or section in the doctrines of civic righteousness, and Mr. Bryan emphasized this great truth by avoiding any reference that might suggest such distinction. The gifted Nebraska statesman was applauded to the echo by the largest crowd ever gathered on Howard's picturesque campus.—Washington (D. C.) Sun.

Muskogee, August 19-21 1914. V. J. BRYAN Howard Students The Big Star Booster The Oklahoma Booster Edition which will be published by the Tulsa Star will be one of the most complete and accurate publications ever published in the state. Much real enthusiasm is being manifested by business men, farmers and professional men throughout the state who desire to do all they can to make a good showing for the negroes of Oklahoma at the National Negro Business League which meet at Muskogee August 19, 20 and 21. Letters are coming into the Star office daily asking for information about this Booster Edition and many are sending in interesting facts about their business, farms, etc., to be published. Owing to the limited time left to work up this edition our special agents will find it difficult to visit all the towns in the state. Therefore those who desire to be represented in the biggest publication ever put before the National League will do well to write to this office for particulars. The Tulsa Star, being the leading Negro paper in the state, has shouldered the responsibility of bringing the Negro business men of Oklahoma closer together and giving them a creditable representation at the annual meeting of the National Negro Business Men's League at Muskogee in August. In order to do this as it should be done the Star will publish a special twenty-page Oklahoma Booster edition as a souvenir of this great national meeting of Negro business men. This special edition will be the largest Negro newspaper ever published in America and will be a credit to the entire state. Every Negro business man, professional man or farmer; every Negro woman, girl or boy living within the bounds of Oklahoma, who has done anything worth while will be given space in this special edition if it is possible for our special agents and reporters to find them. The Star photographer will make special efforts to make pictures of Negro farms and business houses as well as beautiful residences owned by Negroes, that we may have cuts made to run in this special Booster edition. Our agents will visit every town in the State where Negroes reside, if possible, and we hope every colored man and woman in the State will help us. It is our purpose to show up the best side of the Negroes of Oklahoma at the big meeting at Muskogee. The Negroes of this State will be on trial before the greatest body of Negroes in the world, headed by one of the leading educators of the world, and it will be expected of us to make a good showing. The Star will make it possible for us to present a better case than any States has presented to this great body heretofore. Help us to help you. WILLIAM F. M'COMBS PETER H. William F.

WINS LONG BATTLE FOR ELIMINATION OF DICTATOR. Provisional President Likely To Be Member of the Constitution- alist Faction. Niagara Falls, Ont.—Delegates from the United States and the Huerta government have formally affixed their signatures in the presence of the mediating representatives of Argentina, Brazil and Chile to the first protocol of the series through which it is hoped to restore peace in Mexico. The agreement as to the manner of transferring executive power from Huerta to the new provisional government stood the acid test of reduction to writing. 12 provides that: "A government is to be constituted in Mexico of a character to be later provided which shall be recognized by the United States on (date to be fixed) and which from that day forward shall exercise public functions until there shall be inaugurated a constitutional president." The brief protocol was significant of two things: It makes no mention of General Huerta as the provisional president and it omits the method of transfer which the Mexican delegates and mediators suggested and to which the United States objected on the ground that its retention would be tanta-mount to recognition of the existing regime: The Mexican plan provided that Huerta should name as minister of foreign affairs, the man agreed upon here as provisional president. The Mexican delegates while abandoning the constitutional form of succession as part of the protocol, are satisfied because it does not specifically deny Huerta's right to name as minister of foreign affairs the man chosen here for provisional president if the latter sees fit to accept designation from him. It is not considered probable, however, that the new provisional president, who is likely to be a constitutionalist, would take the executive power directly from Huerta but he might do so from some other individual whom Huerta might leave in authority. All parties now are concentrating on the second part of the peace plan which relates to the name of the provisional president and possibly will include his cabinet of four. Though the protocol is of comparatively few words, it is the embodiment of that for which the United States has been striving for more than a year—elimination of Huerta. With Huerta's formal statement of his intention to withdraw when Mexico is politically pacified, the protocol takes for granted that such a pacification will occur and arranges for the transition. LORIMER BANKS CLOSE DOORS Four Chicago Financial Institutions Closed by Order of State. Chicago.—Four state banks, the most important having for its president William Lorimer, unseated from the United States senate, were closed by the state banking department here. Representatives of the department began examination into the institutions' affairs. The four banks were the LaSalle Street Trust and Savings Bank, the Broadway State bank, the Illinois State bank and the Ashland Twelfth Street bank, known as the Lorimer-Mundy chain of banks. The LaSalle Street bank was the main institution. Combined, the banks have deposits of $6,411,997 and reported cash means of $1,434,692. Of deposits, $966,000 consists of city funds. The bulk of this amount $650,000 is on deposit with the LaSalle Street Trust and Savings bank. FREE COAST-WISE TOLLS REPEALED ADMINISTRATION WINS SECOND LEGISLATIVE BATTLE AFTER LONG SIEGE. 13 REPUBLICANS WITH MAJORITY While Eleven Democrats Vote Contrary to the Wishes of President Wilson and the Administration Forces. Washington.—Repeal of Panama canal tolls exemption for American coastwise shipping passed the senate by a vote of 50 to 35. The measure goes back to the house, which will accept the Simmons-Norris amendment specifically reserving all rights the United States may have under the Hay-Pauncefote treaty. The passage of the bill after a bitter struggle that has lasted for several months was conceded another victory for President Wilson. Although thirteen republicans came to the aid of the democrats who voted for the bill on final passage, the president initiated the movement in his party for repeal and it was behind him that many democrats who voted "aye" lined up on the last test. The senate was weary with its long grind of debate, its weary watching for any attempt to gain parliamentary advantage and by the time Vice President Marshall put the question for passage of the bill the oratory had died down, the chamber was quiet and the vote was taken with but little excitement. Bitterness among democratic senators over the appeal bill flared up again and before oil was poured on the troubled waters, Senators Vardaman of Mississippi, and West of Georgia, came near blows. Apparently only the interference of Senator Ashurst and the presence of the sergeant-at-arms prevented a physical encounter. It all lasted less than a minute, but in that time the senate livened up and displayed an interest in things such as has not been evident for some weeks. For Repeal.

Saltillo, Mex.—General Carranza announced that he had returned an answer to the note of the Niagara Falls mediators, stating that he would appoint representatives to the conferences at Niagara Falls. The names of the representatives were not made public. The note simply gives the assurance that the constitutionalists would be represented and did not mention conditions on which the constitutionalists would take part. Niagara Falls, Ont.—An important point in plans for the pacification of Mexico was gained by the United States through the conciliatory spirit displayed by the Mexican delegation. What had been a stumbling block for several days was passed in safety. In a full conference of the mediators and the delegates of both countries it was agreed that the transfer of authority from the present administration to the new provisional government should be accomplished in some other way than by General Huerta's appointment of a minister of foreign affairs to succeed to the provisional presidency. This method, provided for in the Mexican constitution will be abandoned because the United States insisted that to assent to it would be tantamount to a recognition of General Huerta's right to exercise constitutional functions.

ZACATECAS STILL HOLDING OUT ARTILLERY FIRE DRIVES BACK CHARGING NATERA FORCES. Constitutionalist Armies Now Number 100,000 Well Armed Fighters According to Gen. Carranza. Saltillo.—Zacatecas is making a desperate resistance to General Natera and although the constitutionalists have captured Guadalupe, Mercedes and Grillo, suburbs of the town, they were repulsed twice with heavy losses from the fortified hill of La Buffa which is one of the strongest defenses of the town. General Natera reported to General Carranza that his charges at La Buffa were met with a withering artillery fire from the federal defenses, which he said were extremely strong, but his men were in fine condition and spirits and were not discouraged at the checking given them. He reported that the casualties on both sides were extremely small. The arrival of reinforcements sent him from Torreon by Villa is being delayed by heavy rains and washouts along the National railways. He said the federal entrenchments showed that much labor had been spent in their preparation. Takes Small Towns. General Gabriel Hernandes reported that June 12 he captured Xicoton-calt, Puejutia, Valles, Tamahua, Armatian and other smaller towns in Hidalgo, capturing many arms and much ammunition and two field pieces. Cuernavaca was captured June 6 by Zapata, according to a cable received by General Carranza. General Carranza declined to discuss the scope of action or the powers which will be delegated to the representatives of the constitutionalists to be sent to Niagara Falls. He also declined to discuss the possibility of an armistice, declaring that in diplomatic affairs as in military matters it was inadvisable that certain matters be made public. He asked to be excused from discussing these matters, saying that he preferred to remain silent in regard to them than to have any statement he might make given a possible misleading construction. General Carranza, however, seemed most optimistic regarding the reception of the constitutionalist representatives and the success of their mission. He reiterated the fact that he previously had accepted the good of fices of the A. B. C. mediators in principle for the discussion of internal questions. Claims Big Army About the military affairs of the constitutionalists General Carranza spoke more freely. In reply to a question as to the number of men under arms in the constitutionalist army General Carranza estimated them at 100,000. He said there were in his possession also 120 pieces of field artillery, all captured from the federals, 175 machine guns and ample ammunition. On the fifteenth of March, 1913, Gen. Carranza held a review in Saltillo of the constitutionalist troops. He had less than 200 men and one machine gun. Before the majority of the 16,000 troops now here leave for the south, General Carranza will hold a review of them all with those that are left of his first little band in the place of honor. WILSON DEMANDS ANTI-TRUST BILL PRESIDENT TO FIGHT SPECIAL INTERESTS URGING ADJOURNMENT. DEPRESSION IS PSYCHOLOGICAL Pictorial Review and Simmons Company Assist in Agitation. Federal Reserve Board Organized. Washington, D. C.—President Wilson came out with a flag declaration that despite what he characterized as a deliberate campaign by certain interests to secure adjournment of congress and prevent passage of the administration's trust program, he would use every influence at his command to get the pending bills through the senate at this session. Choosing his words carefully, the president disclosed his belief that organized distribution of circular letters and telegrams among business men, members of congress and other public officials, calling for an adjournment of congress, a halt in the trust bills, an increase in freight rates for the railroads and a "rest for business" was responsible for what he recently described as a "psychological depression." In spite of that view the White House made public copies of letters and telegrams brought in by friends of the administration. One letter was circulated by the Simmons Hardware company of St. Louis under date of June 9. Just prior to that date President Wilson had offered to E. C. Simmons, president of that company, a place on the federal reserve board. Just before the president expressed his views on the trust program it was announced that Mr. Simmons had declined the appointment and that Chas. S. Hamlin of Boston would be nominated in his stead. Mild Sensation Created. The president's declaration and the publication of the letters created a mild sensation approaching that which followed the president's denunciation of "insidious lobby," which, he said, was threatening the tariff bill last year. Varying opinions were expressed as to the probable time of adjournment of congress, but it generally was agreed that the session should be continued until anti-trust measures are finally disposed of. FEDERAL RESERVE BOARD NAMED Chas. S. Hamlin of Boston Fills the Last Vacancy. Washington.—Organization of the new national banking and currency system entered its last stages when President Wilson nominated the five men who, serving with the secretary of the treasury and the comptroller of the currency ex-officio, will constitute the federal reserve board. Charles S. Hamlin of Boston was nominated for the two-year term; Paul Warburg of New York, for four years; Thomas D. Jones of Chicago, for six years; W. P. G. Harding of Birmingham, Ala., for eight years, and A. C. Miller of San Francisco, for ten years. Thus eventually all appointments to the board will be for ten-year terms, the term of one member expiring every two years. President Wilson will select one of the men named to be governor of the board. It is generally expected that Mr. Jones or Mr. Hamlin will be chosen for the place. CARRANZA'S DELIGATES BARRED From Mediation Conference Unless He He Agrees to Armistice. Niagara Falls, Ont.—The three South American mediators formally advised General Carranza by telegraph that they would not admit constitutionalists to the conferences here unless an armistice were declared and internal as well as international phases of the Mexican problem accepted as the scope of mediation. This action followed the receipt of a note from Rafael Zubaran, special representative of Carranza in Washington, announcing the appointment of Ferando Iglesias Caldron, Louis Cabrera and Jone Vanconcelos as constitutional delegates to the mediation conference at which, according to the view of the constitutionalist chief, "it is sought to settle the international conflict which has arisen between the United States and the Mexican republic." The mediators told Carranza they feared he "had not duly considered" their communication, requesting an armistice and that his representatives should discuss the entire Mexican problem.

Bud, Ky.—"I want to urge all weak women," says Mrs. Lizzie R. Barker, of this place, "to give Cardul, the woman's tonic, a fair trial, for I believe it will do for them what it has done for me. I was a sufferer for 13 years, with such pains I could scarcely walk or stand on my feet. I had headache, dizziness and fainting spells. After many treatments failed to help me, my husband persuaded me to give Cardul, the woman's tonic, a trial, and I did so. Now I feel like a new woman. I am well of all these troubles, and can do all my housework, with pleasure. When I commenced taking Cardul, I was not able to sit up. Now I am enjoying good health and do all of my work. I shall keep Cardul in my home all the time. There is not any medicine that equals it for women." We, also, urge you to try Cardul, the woman's tonic, for your troubles. It has helped so many thousands of women in the past half century that we feel sure it will help you, too. Prepared from perfectly harmless, vegetable ingredients, Cardul is the remedy for you to use. It can do you nothing but good. Try it.—Adv. Not All.

Dr. George P. Phenix, vice-principal of Hampton institute, has said: "Moral qualities, which in the aggregate make strong character as well as economic efficiency, are developed through the combination of industrial work by day and academic work by night, as they could not be by either alone, and longer hours are made possible in the trade, agricultural and domestic science departments. "Every student in the trade school has one hour of study early in the morning, eight hours of work in the trade school, and two hours of academic work in the evening period. This makes 11 hours a day, outside of which he must get time for meals, the care of his room, religious services and recreation. Yet the students gain in health and skill, in scholarship and in character." To ambitious negro and Indian students, the following courses are offered: Academic-normal, covering THE FASHION SCHOOL Students Learn Art of Dressmaking. four years of work for those who are preparing to become teachers; an agricultural course of four years; and a trade course of four years in any one of thirteen trades, including building industries as well as such indoor trades as tailoring and printing. In the agricultural courses the Hampton school has the opportunity of learning the best modern practise in field, garden, orchard, greenhouse, horse barn, dairy and poultry houses. Hampton sends out "agricultural missionaries." Mere bigness has never been a goal at Hampton. Every department has grown in natural response to the pressing needs of the races receiving training. Today, between 1,200 and 1,300 students, including some 40 Indians, are enrolled. The industrial accident insurance commission of California has published a decision that it is illegal to reduce wages to meet the cost of insurance against the compensation risk on employees. Plans for an orphan asylum to accommodate 400 negro children and to be erect adjoining the estate of August Belmont at North Babylon, L. I. are being discussed. Mr. Belmont also has a big place at Hempstead, L. I. The promoters of the orphan asylum are said to be negotiating for the purchase of the Edwards farm of 100 acres owned by the receivers of the Dean Alvord company. The principal feature of this farm is an extensive nursery farm. There are several buildings on the tract and these, it is expected, will be remodeled for the use of the negro orphans. The general assembly of the Presbyterian church in the United States endorsed the work of the Anti-Saloon league, the National Temperance union and the Woman's Christian Temperance union. According to the report of Rev. Mr. McCleland, $247,000 was expended last year by the freedman's board, an increase of $34,000 over the preceding year. The money was spent for evangelistic and educational work in the four negro Presbyterian synods in the South in which 45 new schools were erected. Farming offers an inducement to Missouri negroes unsurpassed by any other calling and solves the problem of their future by giving them opportunities and advantages which no other vocation holds out, declares Commissioner John T. Fitzpatrick in a bureau of labor statistics bulletin. The negro population of Missouri is 157,452 men, women and children, with 43,960 living in St. Louis, 23,566 in Kansas City, 4,249 in St. Joseph, 1,995 in Springfield, 801 in Joplin, 1,871 in Sedalia, 1,846 in Hannibal and the others scattered over the state, including the few that now own farms and others engaged in husbandry. Out of the 280,000 farms in Missouri approximately 3,753 are owned by negroes. They range in size from 3 to 260 acres and are worth, land, buildings, live stock, and everything else on them, $27,768,750, using the average value of a Missouri farm $7,405 as the basis for computation. The farm of the average Missouri negro farmer, just like that of his white brother, the bulletin says, is well kept and well stocked, and is very productive, growing wheat, corn, oats, grasses, watermelons, strawberries, peaches, apples and all other food necessities. Negroes raise poultry for the market, sell eggs, milk and butter, have beehives and plenty of honey, produce sugar cane which, in fall, they boil out for sorghum molasses. Their daily menu is made of the best things they produce, being far superior to that of the average city negro, who half the time is out of work and has no money to buy food. The life of the negro farmers is full of comforts and joy. In winter most of them are well housed, warm, snug and well fed. Free fuel wood furnished by the timbered lands in and around their farms does away with coal bills. Every Sunday there is chicken, sweet potatoes, honey, dumplings, apples, nuts and other dainties, with strawberries or watermelon in summer and turkey or duck and mince or pumpkin pie in winter. Fresh eggs and hickory smoked sugar cured ham is an ordinary breakfast. Nearly every negro farmer of Missouri has a bank account, and his profits allow him to take a vacation in St. Louis, Kansas City, or some other metropolis once or twice a year. He owns three or four suits of clothes, with shoes and hats to match. A superintendent's report for the Washington's colored schools contains the following suggestive paragraph: "No other school population can present greater need for, nor a riper field for, this early training. Almost helplessly weighted with centuries of unfavorable conditions in the past, and with present environment largely inimical to proper moral and intellectual growth, many of the homes are not fitted to ogive to these tender years that care and training which insure bent to noble and useful manhood and womanhood. There is much due to private and society effort to supply this need, and it did much in directing the attention of congress to this great need and toward securing the public provision made. This public provision, though small, is large in significance, in the hope of larger provision it permits for the future."

Staining wood with beautiful colors while the tree is still standing is undergoing experiment. The dye is introduced at the root, and some trees take up three gallons of the coloring fluid in two days. If introduced when the sap is flowing most freely the results are quick and very marked. The colored tree is cut and used for interior or other woodwork and furniture. The experimental work conducted by the Canadian government in regard to the manufacture of peat proved so successful that there are now two private concerns producing peat, one at Alfred, Ont., and the other at Farnham, Que. It is said that the peat manufactured by the Canadian government is satisfactory for grates and also good for cooking. State authorities of Colorado are making a thorough study of minerals having or supposed to have radio activity, and authorities now assert that every curative mineral spring in Europe can be duplicated in that state. It is said there are 15 springs in Colorado having radio activity. TULSA, OKLA., STAR INTERNATIONAL SUNDAY SCHOOL LESSON (By O. E. SELLERS, Director of Evening Department The Moody Bible Institute of Chicago.) LESSON FOR JUNE 21 THE GREAT REFUSAL. LESSON TEXT-Mark 10:17-31. GOLDEN TEXT-"Ye cannot serve God and mammon." Luke 16:13. (Read also entire verse.) The story of this rich young ruler is one out of the ministry of our Lord that has made an indelible impression throughout every succeeding generation. This is so because it is so vital, vibrant and vivid a revelation of our every-day experience. The lesson naturally divides itself into two sections. Read carefully the parallel accounts; Matt. 19:16-30 and Luke 18:18-30. Man of Courage. I. An Eager Young Man, vv. 17:22. This man is an arresting figure. Much may be said in his favor: (1) He was young (Matt. 19:22); (2) He was in earnest, "came running" (v. 17); (3) He was educated, "a lawyer," Luke 18:18; (4) He was rich, Mark 10:22; (5) He was loved by Jesus, Mark 10:21. That he had lived a clean life is revealed by the answers he made to Jesus. Moreover he must have been a man of some courage, belonging as he did to the ruling class, the Pharisees, yet he came running into the presence of Jesus and cast himself at his feet. We need but to recall that this class was at this time definitely hostile to Christ, yet this young man dared to speak the conviction of his heart in this public way by calling Jesus, "good." We feel that he was an honest seeker after life. His question reveals the unrest of the human heart. It matters not what men may possess of wealth or position, these things do not bring heart rest. Great moral courage, noble aspirations and benevolence never will save nor fully satisfy the human soul. Man does not obtain life by doing, Gal. 2:16. Life is a gift, Rom. 6:23. We must not misunderstand the reply of Jesus (v. 18). Jesus did not deny being good, John 8:46; 14:30; 8:29, but he saw that this young man was filled with the idea of his own goodness. To say that Jesus was good was practically to say he was God, and this the young man did not mean: Jesus sought to reveal to him his careless use of words. Jesus undoubtedly here lays claim to deity and subsequently he said, (v. 21) "follow me," i. e., for this man to yield his life actually to the control of God. Last week we were taught to "make friends by means of the mammon of unrighteousness; that when it shall fall they may receive you into the eternal tabernacles." This is exactly what Christ told this young man to do. "Sell . . . give to the poor." By thus using he would store up treasure in heaven. That he could not stand the test is evident from v. 22. Perils of Riches. II. The Master's Exhortation, vv. 23-31. As a great teacher and philosopher Jesus took this occasion to point out the perils of riches. Nearly every man is willing to run the risk. We have, however, but to look about us to see illustration after illustration of the truth of these words. "How hardly"—increased wealth, decreased piety. "How hardly"—men seek to tone down this picture, but have no right so to do. The only safety is found in the words of verse 27, "with God all things are possible." The most severe test possible to be given to a man's religious experience is for him to be prospered in wealth or position. The rich young ruler is an evidence of the fact that such a godless life is a restless one. Notwithstanding his possessions, his refinement, the privileges of his position and a life so cleanly lived as to leave no vulgar moral scar, yet he exclaims: "What shall I do that I may inherit eternal life?" It was easier for the proverbial camel to have entered the city gate (or a literal needle's eye as you prefer) than for this young man to yield to God the control of his life. Every life is under control. A godless life is a self-controlled life. As men came to Jesus he saw perfectly their individual needs; their peculiar malady. The disciples were amazed at the master's words and thought if a rich man cannot be saved there is hope for none. Such is not the meaning. This is revealed in the reply to Peter's question. Men are saved irrespective of position or of possessions for God loves them all. Those who turn the control of their lives over to his keeping, those who, no matter what their condition or position in life, follow him, leaving all, or bringing all as the case may be, will have their reward here in this life and in the world to come, eternal life.

FORGET TULSA, OKLA THE TULSA STAR Printingand Publishing CO. Don't fail to get in the Oklahoma Booster Edition of The Tulsa Star. Of course the Tulsa spirit will be the dominant spirit at Muskogee in August. Tulsa will be there with the goods in the Star's Oklahoma Booster Edition. The crops in Oklahoma are in excellent condition and a record breaking harvest is assured. The Tulsa Star is now generally recognized as the leading Colored paper published in the State—in the Southwest for that matter. We are going some! It's funny how well some people like to be lauded by the press, and how earnest they appear to be in the belief that they were "really entitled to it", and that the editor was duty bound to stand the expense of telling the world of all their good qualities, etc. This is a funny world. The Woods Block, which is rapidly nearing completion on Greenwood and Archer streets is a very creditable addition to the business section to the east end. Other buildings are going up on Greenwood which are blazing the way for still others to follow. And all of these buildings are owned by Negroes and will be occupied by Negro merchants. If you don't believe the Negroes of Oklahoma, are making good. wait till the the Star Booster Edition is out and you will be convenced. Petty jealousy, envy etc have done more to keep the negro ace divided and at outs with itself than any other known agency. Let us get the habit of boosting our neighbors business. It doesent cost anything, and might be of immeasueable help to us all. It doesn't look good to the outsider to see the two daily papers of great Tulsa, contentedly lambasting bombarding and attempting to belittle each other, and the people of this city have grown disgusted and are praying for the finale. To give color to the question the Star suggest that a Mediation Commission be appointed and retire to the bank of the Arkansas, to settle this unpleasant spleen venting Contest between the Tulsa World and The Tulsa Democrat. The Mexico Question The statement made public this week by the Huerta delegate to the Niagara Falls Peace Mediation Commission is deserving of some consideration not only by the general public in the United States and the government, but by all the nations of the world "wherever human hearts in human love abound." From the incipiency of this Mexican trouble the U. S. government has assumed the attitude of a powerful dictator of a weak revolutionary rent government and has stubbornly insisted that its dictatorship be recognized without any regard for the rights of the people of that country. To all appearances the U. S.-Mexico situation is plainly a fight of a powerful government against one man—Huerta. From the time of Huerta's election our government has been openly antagonistic to his administration and has at no time offered to help him restore peace—if such a thing was possible—to his country. Instead the U. S. government issued its ultimatum that Huerta must resign—that he would not be recognized as the president of Mexico. Because they said he murdered his foes and stole the election. What if he did? Are there no elections stolen in this country? He may have murdered his foe, but in view of the circumstances no one should expect otherwise. Murdering is common in Mexico—especially in revolutionary wars. Huerta is no exception to any other ambition Mexican and no more should be expected of him. We do not approve of all of Huerta's acts, neither do we approve of all the acts of the U. S. government. We believe in fair play and whatever Huerta's faults he is entitled to that much. The invasion by the U. S. government into Mexico on the pretense of insulted dignity and committing acts of war against a government which it had not officially recognized simply because little Huerta refused to salute the flag, wore all acts unbecoming a powerful Christian government. It would have been more in keeping with the dignity of the governmen to have entered Mexico as a neutral friend to both sides and restored peace if possible. But diplomacy would not permit this. However diplomacy will permit the U. S. government to demand the resignation of Huerta, who was elected (at least supposed to be) by the people of his country, and dictate the selection of a rebel for president of Mexico. We contend that this is plainly unjust, not only to Huerta and his delegates, but to the entire Mexican people. We love our country, but we love RIGHT and Justice better. TULSA. OKLA.

"Rain," was the answer. "It's going to rain there tomorrow and probably the day after." A week or two later the observer met the merchant and asked what use he made of the information. "It was worth to me," replied the fruit man, "about $200. You see, grapes can't be picked in wet weather so I knew if it was going to rain out there grapes would be scarce here. As soon as I got your answer I ordered a double shipment—two cars instead of one. It rained in New York for three days running, and the price of grapes here rose to a figure that let me sell my shipment at a fine profit. The only mistake I made was in not ordering four cars instead of two."—World's Work. When Short Jenks Raged.

EYE STRAIN Relieved by Quitting Coffee. Many cases of defective vision are caused by the habitual use of coffee. It is said that in Arabia where coffee is used in large quantities, many lose their eyesight at about fifty. Tea contains the same drug, caffeine, as coffee. A N. J. woman writes to the point concerning eye trouble and coffee. She says: "My son was for years troubled with his eyes. He tried several kinds of glasses without relief. The optician said there was a defect in his eyes which was hard to reach. "He used to drink coffee, as we all did, and finally quit it and began to use Postum. That was three years ago and he has not had to wear glasses and has had no trouble with his eyes since. "I was always fond of tea and coffee and finally became so nervous I could hardly sit still long enough to eat a meal. My heart was in such a condition I thought I might die at any time. "Medicine did not give me relief and I was almost desperate. It was about this time we decided to quit coffee and use Postum, and have used it ever since. I am in perfect health. No trouble now with my heart and never felt better in my life. "Postum has been a great blessing to us all, particularly to my son and myself." Name given by Postum Co., Battle Creek, Mich.

RESULT OF LIVING IN FLATS City Habitations Have at Least Taught the Advantages of Consolidation, With Its Accompaniments of Increased Comfort and Lightened Labor. By WILLIAM A. BADFORD. 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, in 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. 187 Prairie avenue, Chicago, Ill., and only enclose two-cent stamp for reply. The demand for six-room houses is increasing. During these prosperous years thousands of young men as well as older men have accumulated a little money and have grown tired of paying rent, which has resulted in a determination to own homes of their own From watching the building of small houses their interest has increased. They have sent for books of house plans and studied the different designs and have finally selected houses to suit their needs and to fit their bank accounts. Usually arrangements are made with some contractor, who is forehanded enough to build a house, take a small payment down and a lien on the property as security for the balance of the purchase price. These deals have increased until they number up into the thousands in all thickly-settled parts of the country, and the sign is a good one. The best class of citizens live in their own homes; a fact that is recognized the 90 world over. The more homes we have the more interest people take in local improvements and municipal government. The habit of living in flats has educated people in the way of utilizing the advantages of concentration. Families that once thought a large dwelling necessary have found that a six-room, two-story house, about the size of the one illustrated, may contain more actual comfort through the application of modern methods of PANTRY 30'X40' KITCHEN 15'0X10'0' DINING ROOM 12'0X14'0' LIVING ROOM 18'0X12'0' PORCH 24'6X4'0' First Floor Plan. housekeeping than the larger houses they were formerly accustomed to. They have learned that a small house is more cheaply furnished, because you have no extra room that must be filled up to make it look right, because you have a place for everything and it is necessary to keep things in their proper places. City flats no doubt are responsible for a great deal of sickness and discomfort through lack of proper light and ventilation, but they have done one good thing in pointing the way to pack a great many house comforts in a very little space. After becoming accustomed to the regular warmth of a steam-heated building and the luxury of having water on tap any time of day or night, no one wants to do without them again, but after putting up with the noise of neighbors too close, the unavoidable variety of flavors caused by so much cooking in one building, the fumes from the laundry where washing is carried on every day in the week, the rattling of planes at any time of day or night, the dust from beating rugs, the noise from innumerable children, and a hundred other annoyances, a family finds a house like this a great relief and sat- DED ROOM 16'0X8'6" DATH 7'0X5'6" DED ROOM 10'0X8'6" DED ROOM 16'0X10'0" Second Floor Plan. isfaction. There is so much more light, air and freedom. All through the house such mechanical devices as revolving coal grates that make a continuous fire possible, gas heaters to warm the water in the tank when a coal fire is not needed, attachments to furnaces to warm the wash water in the winter time, electric flatiron heaters, gas cooking ranges, improved gas burners for lighting, and a hundred other inventions are now installed into these small modern up-to-date houses in such a way that life is rendered more enjoyable than ever before in the history of dwellings, and what makes it all seem almost too good to believe, more like a dream than a reality, is the fact HOUSE Small Att The design appears small city be at buildin used Y., w follow "I some that all this may be enjoyed by any hard-working couple with no capital except their hands and willingness to work. Take a house like this, for example, that is only 24 by 28 feet in size, and you have six good, satisfactory rooms, an attractive-looking front stair with easy access to the other parts of the house, and with all the modern improvements at a price ranging from $2,000 to $3,000, according to the location, local conditions and style of finish. A house could easily vary $1,000 in cost by the difference in materials. For instance, a heating plant large enough to keep the house comfortable may be purchased for $100, or a system of heating costing $300 or $400 may be put in. A difference of $100 could be easily made in the floors alone. Some men want floors double, with deadening material between, while others are satisfied with a single tongue and grooved flooring, and if there are a few knots in the bedroom floors there is no serious objection made. When you go through a house in this way from cellar to roof it is easy to make a variation of $1,000 even in a small house. But no matter how cheap the material or how hard the workmen are driven to finish the job within a certain time limit, such houses are not complete without the very best plumbing that can possibly be secured. In this sense the best does not always mean the most expensive. An iron pipe may be just as sanitary as one made of copper, nickel-plated, but what is meant by the best in this sense is a thorough plumbing system, properly proportioned to the house, well trapped and ventilated, and the pipes put in by a man who understands the business. A house should also be wired for electricity and piped for gas and thers should be plenty of ventilating flues in the partitions. POULTRY Subject of Golden Egg Fable Really Brings Money to Farmer's Pocket —Needs Little Shelter. There is no fowl that can be raised on the farm more profitably than the goose, says N. L. Harris, superintendent of the poultry farm of the Kansas State Agricultural college. The goose needs little shelter, and no more care and attention than any of the other fowls of the barnyard, he argues. Some of its other advantages are that it is seldom subject to disease, it is louse and mite proof, and hawks rarely prey upon young goillings. The eggs may be hatched under hens, but the goslings should be taken away immediately. They can be brooded for a short time in the outside brooders, but after that they should be confined in the house at night. Geese live to great age, some having been known to live for fifty years. The males may be used for six or seven years, and the females are profitable up to ten or twelve years of age. The young geese will lay twelve to eighteen eggs a season, and the old ones can be counted on for from twenty to thirty. "The Emden and Toulouse geese are the best for Kansas," continued Mr. Harris. "A large number of them are raised in the southeastern part of the state. "It is an erroneous idea to think that you need a pond or stream in order to raise geese," Mr. Harris declares. "With the exception of plenty to drink, the geese need no water." HOUSES FOR THE BEGINNERS Small Coop Illustrated Which Can Be Attached to Outbuilding—Scratching Shed Also Shown. The two illustrations given show designs for poultry houses that should appeal to all beginners. Fig. 1 gives a small house that will do well for the city lot, says Farm Journal. It can be attached to the barn or any outbuilding. 'This is the style of house used by Tom Purple, Binghamton, N. Y., who sends the drawing and the following letter: "I am sending you by this mail something that I feel sure will be to Fig. 1—A Two-Story Coop. the point for the 'small acre' man who wants to keep a few chickens of two breeds. I had perfect success with my chicks this year, and being determined to keep them, had to invent something that would cover only so many square feet on my father-in-law's lot, as there were no accommodations at home for them. The two story affair is something new around here, and by using the straw and leaves for furnishing the exercise necessary for good development, I have had rare results—exceptional results. I feed in small feeding boxes in the morning and scatter some grain through trash to make them work. The same at the other feedings." Fig. 2 shows a hen house to which a scratching shed is attached. The house is about a foot above the A ground, and has a board floor. By means of a small opening the fowls can get to the scratching shed, which is protected in front by wire netting. The floor of the scratching shed is earth. This style of house can be built any size desired. Beginning of First Year. When you say a hen lays best in her first year, which is not always true, remember the first year doesn't begin until she is six months old. HOW WOMEN AVOID OPERATIONS By Taking Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound. Cleveland, Ohio—"My left side pained me so for several years that I expected to have to undergo an operation, but the first bottle I took of Lydia E.

I had asked several do undergo an operation, but the first bottle I took of Lydia E.

Economical and Nutritious Preparations Made Possible Through the Use of Green Things That Nature Lavishly Provides. This is the season for squaring up accounts with Mother Nature and the world at large. If you have been overeating, cut down and change your diet, overworking, cease for a little and take breath; too closely housebound, let things go for a day or two and get out into the fields, following the needle of your nature that points toward the country. And first, the diet. Are you eating plenty of cress, plenty of spinach, onion and greens of all sorts? Vegetable salads should be on the table once or twice a day, and below I am going to give you some Armenian dishes where very little meat, combined with vegetables and seasonings, make hearty, nutritious, acceptable and extremely economical dishes. Spinach With Meat.—Ingredients: Meat, one pound of mutton or lamb fat and lean; spinach, two quarts; dry onions, two or three, medium size; broth or plain water, two cupfuls; eggs, one; lemons, one; salt and pepper to season. Cut the meat into eggs-sized portions and fry it in its own fat with the coarsely chopped onions until a light brown. Mix with this the well cleaned, washed and coarsely cut spinach. Season to taste, add the broth and cook over a moderate fire until the meat is tender. Serve with a dressing made of the beaten egg and the juice of the lemon, mixed and blended with a portion of the broth. Spinach With Minced Meat.—Use for this one pound of mutton or lamb (some fat), two quarts of spinach, two or three medium-sized onions (dry), one tablespoonful of butter, one cup of broth, four eggs, salt and pepper to season. Clean the spinach thoroughly, cut in pieces, not too small, boil in plain water eight to ten minutes, then strain. Mince the meat and fry in the butter with the onions, finely chopped. When these are ready, lay half the spinach in a deep pan, pour over this the fried meat in one layer, meanwhile seasoning each layer with salt and pepper as you proceed. Cover with the rest of the spinach, pour over all the broth (which is obtained by cooking bones, bits of meat etc., in water) and boll over a moderate fire or bake in a hot oven. Just before serving make four hollow places on the surface of the spinach with the back of a spoon, and break an egg into each. Cook two or three minutes longer until the eggs are done and serve. This gives a hearty, digestible low-priced dish. Dolmas or Stuffed Dishes.—The "dolma" is a simple and nutritious oriental dish, easily prepared and cooked. It is a stuffing that though easily varied as to seasonings has one general foundation. It is used with tomatoes, green peppers, cucumbers, vegetable marrows, eggplants, onions, cabbage, vine leaves and quinces. The standard dolma mixture consists of the following ingredients: Meat, one pound of fat and lean lamb or mutton, ground fine; rice, one-quarter pound, well washed; dry onions, three or four medium size, finely chopped; parsley, one bunch, chopped; water, two or three tablespoonfuls; salt and pepper to taste. Mix by hand in a large bowl, and if there is more stuffing than needed make walnut-sized balls of the remainder and cook with the "dolma."—Washington Star. French Chef's Advice. Soup should never be salted while cooking until it has been thoroughly skimmed, as salt prevents the scum from rising. To Renovate Veils. Veils that have become wrinkled and mussed looking can be made to look like new in the following manner: Fill a basin with boiling water and stretch the veil over the top, moving to and fro until the whole veil has been entirely steamed. All the wrinkles will have disappeared. About Hairbrushes. Old hairbrushes which have become soft can be made quite hard and firm again by dipping them in a strong solution of alum. To Remove Rust From Steel. To remove rust from steel, the following is excellent: Cover the rusted part with sweet oil, letting it stay on for a day. Then rub it with a lump of fresh lime and polish in the ordinary way. To Renew a Tag. When a tag comes off of bootlace, it can be renewed in the following manner: Press a little black sealing wax around the end of the lace and shape to a point. This makes a serviceable new tag that lasts a long time. BUT ONE ANSWER to the great health problem—you must keep the digestive system strong and active.

"Now, Ellen," she exclaimed eagerly, a few minutes after her sister had reached the house, "do tell me about that cure for rheumatism! I am so anxious to hear about it that I could hardly wait for you to get here." "Well, Carolina," began her sister, "it's electricity—" Before she could continue, Mrs. Carter interrupted her.

Towards the end of a long life old Mr. Barleycorn, a well-known brewer in a quiet old town, joined the church, so with a view to their eternal welfare he made it a custom for his workmen and draymen to turn up on Sunday morning at the brewery, all dressed in their best smocks and top hats, when he would march along with them to church. This had been going on for some time, when one day the parson met him, and, after stopping to chat, mentioned at parting, "Oh, by the way, Mr. B., I do wish you would cease bringing your men to my church; they snore so that I can't hear myself preach."

Little Edwin, three-year-old son of Mr. and Mrs. Crosby Prior of Bremen, Long Island, has been rejoicing over the advent of a baby sister in the home, and as he proudly announced to all, "she is all mine." A neighbor desired to purchase the baby of Edwin but he would not trade. A hen and chickens, toys, candy, many things dear to the heart of a small boy, were offered and stoutly refused. "I want you to think of this over night, Edwin," said the man, "and tomorrow I'll see you again." The following morning Edwin was around. "I have one last offer to make to you for that baby sister," were the words that greeted Edwin. "I'll give you my motor boat for the baby." The youngster was almost staggered for a moment and then said: "You may have her, I was going lobstering this summer and the boat is just what I need. Think I'll go out by Monhegan. Will went there and did pretty well," then he added a little remorsefully: "Perhaps you'd better take some of my playthings when you take her, she may get lonesome without me."—Kennebec Journal.
