Vol. 3, No 42 A Fine Example For Christians A Fine Example For Christians CHICAGO, Sept. 8. —Tumultuous scenes marked the thirty-fifth annual convention of the Negro Baptists today and only the presence of policemen prevented innumerable fist fights. Arguments over a proposed new charter were followed by a struggle for possession of a megaphone, which, but for the police, might have developed into a free fight. Trouble began shortly after the convention had been called to order in the First Regiment armory by Dr. E. C. Morris of Helena, Ark., the president. As a result Morris and the other administration officers left the convention and opened a meeting at Olvet Baptist church. In the afternoon the bolting faction returned to the armory and a struggle soon developed over a megaphone which one of the delegates used to make himself heard. Morris secured it and 'drowned out the vices of the faction' which remained in charge of the convention after the bolt, which was headed by Rev. E. P. Jones of Mississippi. A wild scramble for the megaphone gave the police a great deal of trouble before the billigers were subdued. CHICAGO, Sept. 9. —A police guard and the serving of an injunction followed by scenes of wild disorder were for developments at today's session of the Negro National Baptist convention. The injunction was served on E. C. Morris, Helena, Ark., president of the convention. It restrains him from speaking at the convention or taking any other active part in the proceedings. The trouble begin at the first session yesterday. Morris ruled out of order a motion to consider a new charter for the organization. An appeal from the ruling carried and Morris and his adherents left the hall and held a separate meeting at a nearby church. Today he returned and had been addressing the delegates for half an hour when the restraining order was served it was obtained by E. P. Jones, R. H. Boyd and C. J. Eoyd. Jones was the proper person to hold a meeting at Morris left the meeting. C. J. Boyd is manager of the publication house of the convention at Cincinnati. The meeting grew more disorderly when Jones took the gavel. Delegates all over the hall were shouting: "Put Jones out! We want Morris!" Ten Policemen Interfered. Twenty hundred of Morris' friends followed. Most of the remaining delegates left their chairs and many of them surged toward the speaker's platform. Jones was pounding for order in vain. Ten policemen under a litutenant appeared and mingled with the crowd. Someone seized Jones by his coat tails and pulled him backwards. He fell to his knees, but was not hurt. Finally he abandoned his attempt to preside and mingled with the crowd in front. Cries of "Oh, Lord Help Us!!" could be heard above the din. Suddenly Jones pointed at a delegate and shouted: "Arrest that man. He threatened my life." The man indicated eluded the grasp of the policeman nearest him and escaped, but a number of others were ejected. T. Walker of Augusta, Ga. next took the platform and tried to quiet the delegates. NEGRO FAIR IS DRAWING WELL. Mercantile and Farm Exhibits are Good and Racing Attracts Much Attention. MUSK JGEE, OKOLA, Sept. 9 A large crowd attended the Independent Negro State Fair today, and the racing and other track events were above anything which the colored race has ever put on in Muskogee. The fair was formally opened Monday by Mayor Miller and will continue throughout the week. One division of the fair which attracted as much, if not more than the racing, was the fine exhibits both in the agricultural department and the women's fancywork department. Some of the best corn, wheat and other products ever raised in this part of the country were on display, having been grown by Negroes near Muskogee and other towns. The women's department contained much fine fancy work, crochet, embroidery, tatting, etc. as well as a number of jars of AMERICAN RANCHERS KILL MEXICAN BANDITS CORRECTED In an encounter between American ranchers at Las Noches, Tex., and Mexican bandits, who outnumbered the former four to one, the Americans took refuge in the ranch house shown above in the photograph and held the bandits at bay, killing five of them. Below, three of the cowboys ready to drag the dead Mexicans to the place of burial. FREMAN L. MARTIN IS APPOINTED JUSTICE preserves, jellies, fruits, etc., which were also noteworthy. Lawyer W. H. Twine a local colored lawyer introduced the Mayopt and was general Master of Ceremony at the opening of the fair. Mrs. H. A. Clark, supervisor of music in the colored schools is in charge of the art exhibits and much praise is due her for her uniting efforts to make this the leading feature of all the exhibits. Many pieces are on exhibit made more than one hundred years ago. CANDIDATES GET A SURPRISE See Meteor as They Are Crossing Swamp and Fear End of World is Coming. Hickory, Miss.—A few nights ago, as four gentlemen of this place were coming through Chunky swamp, a meteor threw a flash of light as bright as day into their faces and scared them almost as badly, perhaps, as did the mysterious light which surrounded Paul on the road to Damascus. Two of the men who, by the way, are candidates, were in a very dark and lonely part of the swamp, and thought they were about to be held up by highwaymen when the light flashed all around them. Then they saw the meteor falling through the trees not more than a hundred feet away, apparently. One of the men said he thought the world was coming to an end, while another said perhaps the Germans had his address. The gentlemen who saw the meteor were M. G. Scarborough, F. G. Semmes, W. M. Everett and N. M. Everett. Startling Information. San Angelo, Tex.—John Corbet, a trapper, is showing friends here a rock which he found along the North Coucho river. The rock has a cavity in it in which he found a frog. Mr. Corbet broke the rock and the frog hopped out. Undoubtedly it had been there many years. TULSA, OKLAHOMA, FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 10, 1915 TULSA FAR AHEAD OF OTHER TOWNS IN THE STATE IN GIVING REPRESENTATION TO COLORED CITIZENS. Another important recognition was given the colored citizens of Tulsa early this week when the County Commissioners appointed Freeman L. Martin Justice of the Peace making the third Justice allowed by law for Tulsa. Jake Dillard was appointed constable and the mills of the law in the East End are now busy grinding away. Already several cases have been tried and the new justice seems to be on to his job. One of the daily papers predicted after Martin's appointment that this new court of justice would be strictly a "Jim Crow" court dealing only with cases wherein colored people are concerned, but as Justice of the Peace for the City of Tulsa Justice Martin must hear any case brought before him whether the principals be white or black or both. The daily papers almost invariably try to make a burlesque affair out of any and everything headed or conducted by colored people, much to the disgust of all intelligent people, white as well as black. But as a matter of fact this court of justice will mean as much to the county and city as either of the two courts presided over by white justices. The office which justice Martin now fills by appointment will be an elective office hereafter. At the next election there will probably be at least two as pirants for the place. Tulsa now has three colored men on the city police force, two in the sheriff's office, one justice of the peace and a constable. In this respect as in all others Tulsa leads every town in the state. Page Will Stay In Langston OKLAHOMA CITY, Sept. 7.—Professor Innman E. Page, recently resigned from the presidency of the colored A. & M. college at Langton, and who for 17 years was at the head of that institution, announces that he will continue to reside in Langton, where he owns property. For twenty years before coming to Oklahoma, Professor Page held a position on the faculty of a colored school in Jeffer son City, Mo. The Langston school is considered one of the best of its kind in the country. MEN TEACHERS WEAR VEILS Korean Parents Who Sent Their Daughters to School Objected to Male Instructors. Washington.—Changes in Korean manners and etiquette are reaching even the girls' schools since the time of Japanese control. Desirous of broadening the minds of the women, a girls' high school was established at Seoul in 1908, when the girls admitted, 54 in number, were almost entirely daughters of noblemen. The teachers were women at first, but the number of students increased so that the necessity of efficient male instructors was felt and some were appointed. The community in general and the students' parents in particular were enraged, alleging that it was an unpardonable crime for men to enter the gate of a girls' school in broad daylight, even if they were teachers. The school authorities therefore made a concession that the male teachers should veil their faces when they passed the gate of the school. It is an absurd idea, but the students parents were satisfied with it. Some girls were attended by two or three chaperons or maids even at school. At first the young ladies could distinguish only such primary colors as red and blue, having no eye for delicate secondary colors and tints. But at present they are instructed in all liberal arts and their thoughts and ideas are naturally being broadened. The graduates want to make a new departure in the serious matter of marriage and are being generally allowed by their parents to have a free choice of a match. It is reported that these new women desire to marry physicians or lawyers in preference to young heirs of noblemen. Pay For The Star STATE-WIDE MASS MEETING WOULD HELP FARMER Called to Meet In This City Government Plans to Mortgage Forests' Future Income. Will Ask Congress to Advance Money for Public Works in Order to Stimulate Agricultural Development. Washington.—The secretary of agriculture's plan to anticipate future receipts from the national forests by securing an advance of money from congress for the construction of roads, trails, bridges, and other public works would stimulate agricultural development and would relieve many struggling communities from the present burdens of taxation, an article contributed by the chief of the forest service to the department of agriculture year book, just issued. This policy, says the article, would apply exclusively in those counties where there is a considerable area of national forest land so located that the forest resources cannot be marketed, although later they will yield a large revenue. It would fully meet the local difficulties arising from the fact that the national forests are not subject to taxation; would aid in the protection and development of the forest resources, and would remove the one barrier which in a few places prevents farmers from immediately enjoying the benefits of the national forests. Millions of acres of farm land are today undeveloped because of a lack of good roads. In opening any new country road building constitutes a hard problem for the settlers. At first, while the settler is struggling to erect his home and farm buildings and to clear his land, he usually cannot afford to pay high taxes or otherwise contribute toward the expense of road building. The national forests comprise the remotest and least settled regions of the country. In many cases farming in these localities is still pioneering, under as difficult conditions as have ever existed in the United States. One of the principal reasons for the failure to develop the large areas of excellent agricultural land which lie near the forests is the lack of roads. The government is trying to meet this problem in two ways, first, by public improvements being made on the national forests, and second by the direct contribution to the counties of a share in the forest receipts. Up to date the forest service has constructed on the forests more than 2,300 miles of roads, 21,000 miles of trails, nearly 600 bridges, and 18,000 miles of telephone lines. Every one of these improvements benefits setters and ranchers. In addition, there is appropriated annually for the use of the counties in which the national forests lie 25 per cent of the gross receipts from timber sales and other sources, to be used for road and school purposes. Some of the individual forests are bringing in over $100,000 a year and the business of the entire national forest system is increasing so that this direct contribution to community upbuilding is rapidly growing. In fact, already a total of nearly $800,000 is obtained from the forests every year for county, road and school purposes. LOST RELATIVE I am desirous to find my brother.

MASS MEETING Called to Meet In This City Leaders And Laymen of The Race Will Organize Here on The 18th For Mutual Protection A mass meeting of the colored people of Oklahoma has been called to meet in Tulsa Saturday, September 18 for the purpose of discussing the general needs of the race in this state and to form an organization to promote the general welfare of the race. This course was adopted at a meeting in Oklahoma City last week, at which were present some of the leading race men from every section of the state. A very large delegation is expected as at the present time there is a wave of unrest among the colored people of Oklahoma growing out of political and other conditions existing in the state. All the arrangements for the meeting is in the hands of a committee headed by editor Smitherman of the Tulsa Star. Every colored person who comes will be admitted to the mass meeting and will be at liberty to express themselves on the questions at issue. The meeting will be held in the Dreamland Theatre on N. Greenwood. NEGRO DOCTORS ARE MAKINK GOOD IN MUSKOGEE. MUSKOGEE, Okla., Sept. 8.—The colored people of this city believe in their own hospitals. There are more Negro physicians in Muskogee than in any other town or city in the state and they boast of the fact that when one of their patients must undergo a serious operation it is not necessary to take them to a white hospital. The Negroes of this city have three creditable hospitals and they are being supported generally by the colored physicians. The Morrison Sanitarium is the oldest institution of this kind in the city. This hospital is the result of much hard work and sacrifices on the part of Dr. E. D. Morrison who has labored faithfully to uplift his profession and his people in mase along with it. The next oldest hospital in the city is the Dorcas Hospital which is the result of a determined effort started a few years ago by the ladies of the Dorcas Club. The latest in this line is the Grace Henry Hospital recently started by Dr. W. H. Sims of this city. This is located on South 3rd Street almost in the business center of the city in a building owned by Dr. Sims, who is bent on educating the masses of the race in the wisdom of using their own doctors. Muskogee must be given the credit for being anywhere in the state in this respect. It is hoped that every other town in the state where Negroes live will follow the example. Chisum Charged With Libel Guthrie, Okla., Sept. 7.—Melvin J. Chisum, editor of the Tribune a paper published in Oklahoma City in the interest of the Negro race, was released on a $5,000 bond when arraigned here Monday on a criminal libel charge preferred by officials of Logan county. Chisum was arraigned before Justice of the Peace W. H. Hornaday and charged with having published libelous statements concerning I. E. Page's official conduct as president of the Negro A. & M. College at Langston, Okla. The article complained of alleged that vice was permitted to flourish in the school while Page was president. Page has resigned as president of the school.

The story reads like a fable. in 1881, 34 years ago, there was a politi- cal campaign on in Macon county. The Negro had a voice in the elections, As a reward for political service a promise was fulfilled to the leader of the Negro voters—“that a good teach- er would be furnished to the Negroes of Tuskegee.” Booker T. Washington was the fulfillment of that promise— @ political product that has worked well. He had been educated at Hamp- ton, Va, and came in response to the demand for a teacher—thus the Ne- kro race came to be in possession of 4 leader whose influence has been felt over the world, and whose executive ability has builded a city of his own out of the barren fields in Macon coun- ty.

WRITTEN ASSURANCE GIVEN That There Will Be No Further Slaughter of Innocent Non-Combatant Traveling On Merchant Vessels. Washington—Stranded relations between the United States and Germany over submarine warfare apparently passed into history after Count Von Bernstoff, the German ambassador, informed Secretary Lansing in writing that prior to the sinking of the Arabic his government had decided that its submarines should sink no more liners without warning. Count Von Bernstoff's letter which revealed for the first time that Germany had prepared an answer to the Lusatania note which was about to be dispatched when the Arabic was destroyed follows : "My Dear Mr. Secretary: "With reference to our conversation of this morning, I beg to inform you that my instructions concerning our answer to your last Lusitania note contains the following passage. "Linners will not be sunk by our submarines without warning and without safety of the lives of concombatants provided that the linners do not try to escape or offer resistance." "Although I know you do not wish to discuss the Lusitania question until the Arabic incident has been definitely and satisfactorily settled. I desire to inform you of the above because this policy of my government was decided on before the Arabic incident occurred. "I have no objection to you making any use you wish of the above information. "I remain, my dear Mr. Lansing, "J. VON BERNSTORFF." Disavowal Expected. The next step, it is said authoritatively, will be a formal communication from the German government disavowing the destruction of the Arabic and tendering regret and separation for American lives lost in the disaster if the attack was made by a German submarine. Even if the submarine which torpedoed the liner subsequently was sunk by a British man of war as has been suggested both from Berlin and London, the Berlin foreign office is expected to send its disavowal as soon as reasonable time has passed with a report from its commander. Once the situation growing out of the Arabic incident has been disposed of, the response to the long unanswered American note on the Lusitania will be dispatched and if Germany's explanations and proposals in this case are accepted by the United States, both officials and diplomats here expect the way to be cleared for a complete understanding between the two governments on the subject of freedom of the seas. In German circles it is freely admitted that in Berlin a hope prevails that such an understanding would be followed by insistent action by the United States to stop interferences with neutral commerce with Great Britain and her allies which prevent Germany from importing food supplies for her civil population. The new American note to Great Britain making representation against the restrictions imposed by the orders in council, is almost ready to go forward to London. BERLIN TELLS OF GREAT LOSSES Germans Claim To Have Put 1,100,000 Russians Out of Business. Berlin.—An official review of the eastern campaign estimates that since May 2 the Russians have lost at least 300,000 men in killed or wounded, and 1,100,000 men captured by the Germans. The announcement follows: General army headquarters publishes a review of the results of offensive movements in Poland and Russia since May 2, beginning with the battle at Gorlice. Army headquarters estimates the strength of the Russian troops which were then directly engaged in that region was about 1,400,000. In the fighting since My 2, 1,100,000 have been captured and a minimum of 300,000 wounded or killed. "This is a very conservative estimate. The actual figures are surely much higher, because the Russians saved artillery by recklessly sacrificing their infantry. Thaw Asks Divorce. Pittsburgh—Harry K. Thaw filed suit asking a divorce from his wife, Evelyn Nesbit Thaw, charging misconduct with John Francis of New York. The petition is very brief, covering less than one typewritten page. In it Thaw alleges that his wife was guilty of misconduct with Francis at 31 West Thirty-first street, New York, in December, 1909, and January, 1910, and at various other times and places. Francis is a newspaper reported. He says he has not seen Evelyn for three years. CEN. PASCUAL OROZCO KILLED FAMOUS MEXICAN FIGHTS HIS LAST BATTLE. And Is Killed In Fight With Pursue ing U. S. Troops.—Had Fought In the First Revolution. El Paso.—Gen. Pascual Orzoco, prominent military leader in Mexico's many revolutions of the last several years, was killed in a fight with a posse of American civilians, customs officers and troopers of the Thirteenth United States cavalry. The battle took place on Green river canyon of the High Lonesome mountains in Culberson county, Texas, following a raid on the Dick Love ranch. Orzoco and four companions were pursed from the Sierra Blanca country into the foothills. The last of the band died at dusk. Orzoco was one of the first to join Francisco Madero when the latter organized his revolt against President Diaz in 1910. Orzoco took the field in northern Chihuahua and in company with his bullion guards as a nucleus soon raised the most effective fighting force under Madero's banner. Facing tremendously superior forces he remained in the field throughout the Madero revolution Gen. Pascual Orzoco. even throughout the time when Madero himself was forced into hiding in the United States, escaping the pursuing federalals by his knowledge of the mountains and the mobility of his mounted men. Orozco was the senior general among those with Madero at the taking of Juarez and took command of the captured town. When Madero became president Orozco accompanied him to Mexico City but it was not long before a disagree ment arose over large sums of money Orozco alleged to be due him and his father, Colonel Orozco. Orozco abandoned his allegiance to Madero and again took to the hills taking the majority of his men who had followed him through the Madero campaigns with him. With the fall of Madero, Orozo joined the adherents of Huerta and became one of the most active military chiefs of the latter. He took part in scores of engagements and skirmishes in Chihuahua, Durango Coahuila and Nuevo Leon. With the arrival in the United States of General Huerta, Orozo joined his former chief and accompanied him on the journey to El Paso which culminated in the arrest of both at Newman, N. M., last June by United States officials. After being released on bond he again escaped a few nights later and it is supposed has been in the vicinity where he was killed since that time. GREAT SLAUGHTER OF BRITISH Berlin Claims 50,000 Died Last Week On Gallipoli Peninsula. Berkin.—The British employed 100,000 men in their attacks on Turkish positions on Gallipoli last week, according to a dispatch from Constantinople to the Frankfurter Zeitung and their losses were extremely heavy. The correspondent estimates that since August 6 the British losses have been more than fifty thousand. According to the correspondent the killed among the British troops in the fighting of August 28 and 29 included about six hundred officers. A cavalry division, he declared, was almost completely wiped out. The Germans continue their progress toward the Russian strongholds in the east. The progress toward the Villa railroad is being continued while the army of Prince Leopold and Field Marshal Von Mackensen both report that the Russians are being driven back along a wide front. In the Galacian operations recently resumed, the Germans have met with a check on the Stripa river where strong Russian forces counter attacked and, according to Berlin, "partially stopped" the Austro-German pursuit. More Troops To the Border. Washington.—Two regiments of infantry and one of cavalry were ordered from Galveston to reinforce American troops patrolling the Mexican border. Secretary Garrison announced that the war department was sending additional forces at the request of Major General Funston, commanding the border patrol. The secretary indicated the troop movement comprised merely a part of a general plan evolved by General Funston for strengthening his positions. THE TULSA STAR 20 LOST ON HESPERIAN TORPEDOED VESSEL FOUNDERS WHILE BEING TOWED TO QUEENSTOWN. 2 AMERICANS ON BOARD SAFE Some Doubt As To Whether Explosion Was Caused By a Mine Or Torpedo, But Survivors Favor Latter Theory Queenstown.—The Allan liner Hesperian sank within a few miles of Queenstown after Captain Main and a volunteer rescue crew of twenty-five had made a brave fight to bring the crippled ship into port. The sinking of the Hesperian in deep water probably will prevent an investigation to determine whether the disaster resulted from a submarine's torpedo or from a mine. Passengers and crew assert positively that the vessel was struck by a torpedo, but thus far no statement has been obtained from any one who saw a submarine or a torpedo. One first cabin passenger, six second cabin passengers and six third-class passengers on the liner Hesperian are unaccounted for. A woman's body has been identified as that of Miss Carberry, probably of New Foundland. Torpedoed Without Warning Captain Main of the Hesperian declared the vessel was torpeded and that no warning was given. Major Maitland, in charge of the ocean services of the Canadian Pacific, said the list of missing was likely to reach twelve passengers and perhaps one or two members of the crew. He added that all would have been saved but for an unfortunate mishap in launching one lifeboat in the darkness. As soon as Captain Main landed in Queenstown he proceeded to the admiralty office to make his report. There landed with him thirteen officers and twenty-five men who remained with the liner to the last. Two mine sweepers and two admiralty tugs attempted to tow the Hesperian to port but the ship, partly filled with water, was so unmanageable and the sea so heavy that no progress could be made. The American consul at Queens-town, Wesley Frost, telegraphed to the American embassy at London that the admiralty authorities had not been informed officially that the Hesperian had been torpeded without warning, but that they believe that the case. Mr. Frost's message also said that forty-five unorganized Canadian troops were on board, most of them invalided and that the Hesperian had a 4.7 inch gun mounted stern. The consul has been unable to learn of more than two Americans who were on the Hesperian, both members of the crew and both reported to have been saved. BORDER SITUATION STILL VEXING Heavy Reinforcements of U. S. Troops Near Brownsville. Washington.—The rushing of heavy reinforcements into the trouble zone by the United States authorities is believed to have had the expected result of overawing the Mexicans whose raids into Texas had become so persistent as to give rise to rumors of an organized invasion of American territory. While no further fighting was reported from the trouble zone near Brownsville, American troops were on the alert all along the Rio Grande to check any recurrence of raids into Texas by Mexican bands. In a bruch, which in the annals of Latin-American wars, would have been considered a real battle, 30 Mexicans were killed, the fighting all being across the boundary. Extraordinary precautions had been taken by border patrol officers after the circulation of reports that preparations were under way for a general invasion of the United States territory. Major General Funston was given authority to handle any emergency and commanders would not hesitate to pursue to a rout the participants in any movement approximating an armed invasion. If the raiders continued to appear in small bands, however, it was understood they would not be followed across the frontier. News dispatches from the border stated the situation had been relieved by co-operation of the Carranza military authorities who removed their troops from the river bank at Cavazos. Major General Funston reported that General Nafaratte, the Carranza commander at Matamoros, again had denied that Carranza troopers were riding the Mexican border and proposed bringing more Carranza troops to the Mexican side to suppress disorders. The Carranza authorities have suggested a conference to arrange joint action.

COURTESY OF OLD TIMES Manners Were Important When Washington Lived, but We Have No Time to Be Polite. Among the manuscripts preserved in the state archives at Washington is an old copybook written when he was but fourteen years old by the man for whom the city was named. Most interesting of all the memoranda set down carefully in the boyish handwriting are what George Washington quantily called "Rules of Civility and Decent Behavior in Company and Conversation." And one of these rules is: "Be not forward, but friendly and courteous; the first to salute, hear and answer, and be not pensive when it is time to converse." If as a boy he studied such maxims, do you wonder that Washington was all his life noted for his fine manners? The rules of courtesy were thought to be a very important part of a gentleman's education in the eighteenth century. A man was considered ignorant and ill-bred if in his intercourse with the world he omitted certain little acts of politeness. What gentleman of the old school ever permitted himself to remain seated when ladies were standing or to smoke in their presence without first asking permission? When they were invited out our ancestors were brought up to believe that due respect to the host and hostess demanded that each guest make himself as agreeable as possible; hence the quint maxim copied out so carefully by the young George Washington; "Be not pensive when it is time to converse." The man at the present day too often, takes the attitude that he is conferring a favor by accepting an invitation; and expects to be amused and entertained without contributing anything. Old-fashioned courtesy taught that deference must at all times be paid to age. A hundred years ago little boys and girls were told to "mind their manners" if perhaps the "dominie" or the schoolmaster or anyone of position or authority spoke to them; and the small lads would bow deeply and the tiny maids would curtsy most respectfully. Such airs and graces, pretty though they were, would be out of place in our more strenuous times. Yet there is no reason why our young people's manners should not be as good, if of necessity less formal, than those of our ancestors. If children are taught to be deferential to their elders, to be polite and generous to their playfellows, and are instructed in all the small courtesies of the table and drawing room prescribed by etiquette, they will have been given a heritage by their parents that will be of inestimable value in after life. For a thorough acquaintance with the fundamental rules of good breeding gives an ease of manner that can be acquired in no other way; and it helps wonderfully in the fight for success we all must wage.—Rehoboth Sunday Herald. A train of thought isn't much good to a man who is too lazy to generate steam for moving it in the right direction. Crumbs of comfort are satisfying only when there are enough of them to make a square meal. Of course there is more than one good reason why the match-making mamma should be called Mater.

A few hours later he was speeding to the penitentiary under a sentence of 30 years. This incident is referred to in Muskogee by some as a "legal lynching." THE NEGRO FAIR in Muskogee this week was very good for a maiden effort, although the Fair Association did not seem to have the co-operation of the leading business Negro men of that city. In fact it was a very noticeable fact that the leading business men of the city turned a cold shoulder to it and refused to support it. Without attempting to discuss the merits or demerits of the Fair Association or the peculiar attitude of the business men of Muskogee in refusing to give their endorsement and support to this movement, we believe that inasmuch as this was a Muskogee enterprise, and more than that, a race enterprise, every Negro business man in Muskogee should have encouraged it. This was a splendid opportunity for the race in Muskogee to secure some valuable advertising, and as we see it, it matters little through whom the opportunity came, the leading business men should have been in the game. However, the plan is laid and Muskogee here-after will be known as the home of the Negro Fair movement in Oklahoma. MORE GUARDIANSHIP DOPE.

Us Save You M LAST WEEK a certain County Judge, is said to have sent for a Colored man who was guardian for his own children and told him that his report was not correct and that unless he—the father—resigned as guardian of his children, criminal prosecution would be started against him. The Colored man went to a lawyer, a Colored lawyer, who went into every detail of the case. After a diligent investigation he found that a big oil well had come in close to the land belonging to his clients children, and informed the Judge of the County Court that his client would not resign, but was ready for trial if he had committed any crime. Whereupon the Judge said he would take the case under advisement. Or course there will be no trial. Do you see the point? The Colored man had done no wrong. He was guardian of his own children and when the big grafters saw a chance to turn a trick and rob these little Colored children they were ready to do so even if it had been necessary to send the father to the penitentiary. But thanks to the genius and ability of one of our own lawyers the scheme was nipped in the bud and the Star will bet a dollar against the hole in a doughnut that no charges will ever be brought against the guardian and father. et Us Save You Money! et Us Save You Money!

Work for 2,007 Obtained by Bureau of Appointments, According to Report—Some Make $390 New Haven.-Yale students who worked their way through college last year earned a total of $37,146.88 in positions obtained for them by the bureau of appointments of Yale university, according to the first report of that bureau. During the year the bureau assisted 600 students who applied for work. In the cases of three-fourths of the men applying the bureau provided for work and scholarship aid sufficient to make the assets for the year equal to the total necessary expenses. Typewriting and stenographic work furnished the most profitable means of employment and the newspaper bureau brought good results. Owing to the discussion that arose concerning tutoring this means was not pushed vigorously. Next year, according to arrangements made by the faculty, there will be a regular tutoring school attached to the university. The record kept of the amounts earned by students shows that a total of 2,007 jobs were given out during the nine months of the university year, from which the men reported total earnings of $19,646.88, and 175 positions were furnished for students for the summer, from which the estimated total income is $17,500. This, of course, does not include the large amount of income of men from work which they have continued on jobs obtained through the bureau in previous years, or the earnings from the large amount of work which men have found for themselves about the city. On the basis of this computation it is estimated about seven hundred students in the university support themselves and earn approximately $300 a year each at Yale. They engaged in all kinds of work. There were 318 ushers, 98 did clerical work, 73 were waiters, and included in other classes of work are canvassing, caring for furnaces, gardening, collecting, clerical work in dining halls, music and clerking in stores. Twenty-five men canvassed for names for a woman's suffrage petition presented to the Connecticut legislature; five acted as models for artists, for classes in anatomy and for an underwear manufacturing company; fifteen acted as pallbearers, fifty were "supers" in theatrical entertainments, five were professional partners at dances. One man worked for the Winchester Repeating Arms company, doing a twelve-hour shift six nights a week, and he completed a regular year of law school work. Others gave sleight of hand performances, played in orchestras, served as inspectors for the antifly campaign, acted as doorkeepers at weddings, etc. One gathered newspaper clippings at 50 cents a clipping of the record of every competitive event between Yale and Harvard to settle an argument between a Yale graduate and a Harvard graduate. One cleaned tombstones. GRAVEYARD IS FOR SALE Milton Burying Ground, Oldest in St. Louis, to Be Sold for "a Song." St. Louis.—Anybody wish to buy a cemetery for sixty-eight cents? One is to be sold at public auction, for taxes and costs to cover the amount. It is the old Milton burying ground, with an area of three-tenths of an acre, a quarter of a mile north of East Alton, the oldest grave in which is that of John Milton, who died in 1812. An assessment of two dollars was levied against the graveyard for the East Alton drainage and levee district. It was to be paid in annual installments of twenty-three cents. The trustees of the cemetery have had little money for its upkeep and for the past year or so J. W. Carey, former treasurer of the drainage board, has paid the twenty-three cents out of his own pocket. QUARRY STONE POISONOUS Men and Horses Made Sick by Flying Particles When Limestone Is Blasted. Auburn—A peculiar form of blood poisoning among employees in a limestone quarry was reported by Dr. John H. Whitbeck, health officer of Cayuga. Fifty men have been struck. Six are in a hospital and one will probably die. According to Doctor Whitbeck, the malady is caused by the blasted stone. Horses cut by particles also were infected. Workmen Find Coffin. Ladoga, ind —The remains of a coffin containing some fragments of human bones were unearthed here by workmen excavating for a cellar in New Ross. The grave was not near a cemetery. About fifty years ago a man named Noffsinger disappeared mysteriously from New Ross and was not seen nor heard from afterward. Residents of New Ross believe he met with foul play and was burted in the woods, which then covered the land where the grave was found. Business = Professional Directory ECONOMY DRUG CO.

Pineapple Sirup.—Put three pounds of loaf sugar into a kettle, add two cupfuls of water and the whites of two eggs, well beaten. Toil together until clear. Remove and cool. Pare and grate enough pineapple to make a quart of juice, then strain into the sirup. Boil ten minutes, remove and bottle. Cover the corks with melted paraffin. Stanford Salad—Put on individual glass plates a slice of pineapple with the core removed. On this put a center slice of a juicy orange. Spread a layer of mayonnaise on top, crown with a maraschino cherry and sprinkle with chopped almonds. Heart leaves of lettuce may be used as a foundation for this salad. Pineapple Marmalade—Peel, grate or chop as many pineapples as are desired. Weigh and allow a pound of sugar for each pound of fruit. Mix well and let stand overnight in a cook place. In the morning cook until soft enough to put through a sieve. Strain, return to the preserving kettle and continue the cooking, stirring constantly until a clear amber jelly is formed. This will be thick when cool. Put into small jars, cover and seal. This is fine for cake fillings, desserts and many other tasty dishes. Pomona Punch.—Add two lemons, two oranges, sliced thin, two quarts of pineapple juice, one quart of straw- berries, or raspberries, a quart of sparkling water and a pound of sugar.

When a dessert is to be had in a hurry a most attractive one may be prepared as follows, providing you have the ingredients: Cut sponge cake in squares, place it on individual plates, put a spoonful of whipped, sweetened and flavored cream on top of each piece and place a canned apricot round side up on each prepared as follows, providing you have the ingredients: Cut sponge cake in squares, place it on individual plates, put a spoonful of whipped, sweetened and flavored cream on top of each piece and place a canned apricot round side up on each piece. Lemon Jelly With Peaches.—There are so many dainty dishes one may make with canned fruit when the fresh is not obtainable. Use fresh peaches at this season for this dish. Make a mold of lemon jelly and when ready to serve unmold in the center of a chop plate, heap round it whipped, sweetened and flavored cream and decorate with peeled halves of peaches. Serve some of the jelly, cream and a peach for each helping. Peach Conde.—Cook rice in milk until soft and creamy. Serve a spoonful of the rice with a half of a cooked peach, which has been cooked in a stirup until a light brown. Pour over a spoonful of the stirup and serve warm, hot hot, with cold poultry or game at supper or luncheon. Apples With Onions.—Slice green apples, using a pint of apples and cupful of sliced onions, doubling the amount if the family has a cultivated taste for such wholesome dishes. Brown the onions in a little hot salt pork fat, add the apples and a very little water, enough to keep them from burning while cooking. Stir occasionally and season with salt, sugar and a dash of cayenne if liked. Serve with pork chops or roast pork. Fried Apples.—These are also delicious to serve as an accompaniment to pork in any form. Wash, but do not peel, the apples, core and slice in thin rings, brown in hot butter, sprinkle with sugar while looking to give a good color, add a grating of nutmeg, a dash of salt and serve hot as a garnish around the platter of sausages, pork chops or steak. Nellie Maxwell What Puzzled Him. The muskety instructor had just been giving a lesson on the rifle to one particularly "green" set of recruits. At the end he asked: "Now, is there any question you want to ask?" One dull-looking "Johnny Raw" stepped forward, blushing awkwardly.

Ready to Say "Good-Night" H K THE FIRST CHILDREN The night clothes of little lads and maids, when made for other seasons than winter, do not differ much from those worn by their elders. For little girls, nainook and batiste and the light muslins are used for the gowns and narrow lingerie laces for trimming. The trimming is simpler, that is, not so much lace is used, and the methods of applying it are less intricate. With the return of fancy needlework to fashion in the belongings of grown people, it is sure to appear on children's clothes, where it seems more appropriate than any other sort of trimming. The small and dainty patterns in laces are chosen when laces are used. The little empire gown shown in the picture has a body of narrow lace and fine embroidery. It is sleeveless, with a ruffle of wider val lace finishing the arm eyes. This is a pattern for summer wear and few sleeveless gowns are made for little girls. For between seasons, little models are made with high neck and long sleeves, finished with fancy needlework and A Lovely Negligee Lovely Negligee of Yellow C A Lovely Negligee of Yellow Crepe A Lovely Negligee of Yellow Crepe THE FASHION WEEKLY Some of the most beautiful tones of yellow are even more delicious in crepe, it seems, than in any other material.

Anyone with any knowledge of sowing can undertake to make so simple a pattern. The bodice portion is cut in kimono fashion with sleeves and body in one piece. It is gathered to a narrow soft belting at the waist line. The long plain skirt portion, with hemmed opening down the front, is straight and is also gathered to the belt. The bottom is finished with a three-inch hem. When the body and skirt have been made and joined at the belt the lace is to be set on. Choose an open mesh pattern and one having a pretty finish at its top edge. The lace should be ten to twelve inches wide, or it may be wider. Gather a ruffle of the lace to be set about the waist line. Turn the K small tuckers. These are to be replaced, as the cold weather comes on, by gowns of canton flannel, made long. The small boy's pajamas hardly need description. They are made of light cotton materials. The pants are fastened at the waist with a tape which is run through a hem in the top. They are as plain as can be and so is the coat. This is usually bound with braid and provided with a pocket at one side. The same pattern is used for the canton flannel pajamas used in cold weather. For the comfort of little ones who sleep in cold rooms and are liable to kick their feet from under cover, bed shoes of canton flannel or of elderdown are recommended. They are easily made and easily laundered and they are most comforting. There are numbers of patterns for little nightdresses—the simplest ones are the best.

When this flounce has been set about the waist, small chiffon roses in light pink, blue and yellow with pale green chiffon leaves, are to be set over it in a row, with one color following another. These roses are important and the negligee would lose character without them. A width of three or four inches is cut from the top of a length of lace to form the ruffle for the neck and front of the body. The remainder of this length will make the ruffles that are set on to the ends of the sleeves. The narrow, standing ruffle makes a heading and a single chiffon rose in pink, with its little, pale green leaves, is set at the top of each ruffle against the net. The negligible is worn with a cap to match. It has a small lace plaque at the center of the crown. A puff of crepe is gathered to this and edged with lace. It is drawn up about the face on an elastic band. A few very small chiffon roses are set with bows of narrow satin ribbon in the flounce of lace that falls about the face.

BOTH ADEPTS IN DECEIT How Signals Arranged for Between Soldier and His Wife Really Were Carried On. The captain had not been long married when he was ordered into camp. To be sure, the camp was in plain sight of the captain's residence, but then it was still a separation; and to lighten this terrible condition it was arranged that the bereaved husband and wife should signal to each other often with their handkerchiefs. It was on the second day that the young wife was seated on the porch reading. "Tell me, Jane," said she, "is the captain still signaling?" "Yes, ma'am," answered the maid. "Then keep waving your handkerchief. I want to finish this novel." At the same time, in camp an officer from an adjoining company stepped up to the captain. "I say, old fellow," he asked, "why do you keep that man out there all day waving a handkerchief?" "Oh, it's merely a bit of signal-code practice for him." No Long Term Wished "May I say just one word before you impose sentence?" asked the street railway magnate. "Well, what is it?" snapped the court. "Please remember, your honor, that you are imposing sentence and not granting me a franchise," he cautioned, fearing for the worst. Inconsistency. Mrs. Bacon—He's a very inconsistent man.

His voice was not at all full." "Maybe not, but he was." When you have no reason to smile, keep in practice, anyway. Use Aeroplanes to Hunt Seals. Difficulty experienced this past season in locating seal herds in northern waters has caused the owners of sealing ships to give serious consideration to employing aeroplanes in next year's hunt. These craft of the air, they believe, can scout more cheaply and with less waste of time than the sealing ships, themselves. Small aeroplanes, designed especially for the purpose, are looked upon as entirely feasible. Through their use, seal herds will be located and reported to the vessel which can then make for the spot indicated. Certain-teed Roofing "Are the summer boarders making themselves at home?"

Washington.—With the approach of the open season for shooting the wild fowl, the United States department of agriculture is warning sportsmen that the federal regulations as amended October 1, 1914, will be strictly enforced. Some misunderstanding has arisen from the fact that the various state laws do not always conform to the federal regulations. This is regarded as unfortunate, but in such cases the department must insist upon the observance of the federal regulations. Federal regulations divide the United States into two zones. Zone No. 1, the breeding zone, includes the states of Oregon, Idaho, Colorado, Nebraska, Iowa, Illinois, Indiana, Ohio, Pennsylvania and New Jersey, and all states north of them. Zone No. 2, the wintering zone, include all states south of those named. The regulations prescribe the season as follows for Zone No. 2, in which Oklahoma is located: Zone No. 2.

INTERNATIONAL SUNDAY SCHOOL LESSON (By O. E. SELLERS, Acting Director of the School Course of the Moody Bible Institute. LESSON FOR SEPTEMBER 12 ELIJAH'S FLIGHT AND RETURN. LESSON TEXT-I Kings 19:8-18. (Read entire chapter). GOLDEN TEXT-Be still and know that I am God. Ps. 46:10. Ellijah's great victory over the prophets of Baal which resulted in their extermination is followed by a most notable prayer service on the top of Mount Carmel (18:42-45). So confident was the prophet that at the arising of "a little cloud," he hastily summoned the feasting king and urges his departure to his home, "that the rain stop thee not." The God whom Ellijah had honored so signally that day laid his hand upon the prophet (18:46) so that he was able to outrun the king's horses to the entrance of Jecreel. There he is met by a messenger of the wicked queen (19:2) who had been the protector and provider of the slain prophets. Getting his eyes off of God and seeing only a vile and wicked woman Ellijah not only ran for his life out of Ahab's domains but also "went a day's journey into the wilderness" to the protecting shade of a juniper tree (v. 4). 1. The Discouraged Prophet, vv. 4-8. Old and young, great and small, we all have our periods of discouragement and frequently despair. Christian's encounter with Giant Despair appeals to us all for it is so true to life. At Carmel, Ellijah controlled the king; in his palace at Jezreel, Jezebel soon shattered his good resolutions, if he had any. We must recall that it was her prophets Ellijah had destroyed. There is a suggestion in the fact that Ellijah did not enter her presence (18:46). Yonder in the wilderness, his Gethsemane, Ellijah prayed a vastly different sort of prayer than upon Mount Carmel. Jezebel is still in power. Heathenism is not overthrown, his efforts had been but trying to "dam Niagara with bulrushes." No one who has ever heard the oratorio "Elijah" sung will ever forget the bitter agony of "It is enough." The prophet who alone had been exalted to the heights was alone capable to sounding such a depth of human despair. The sources of his discouragement were his physical condition, his loneliness, inactivity, mental reaction and a feeling that his cause was lost. God's first remedy was to feed his falting servant and then give him a task to perform, viz., a journey to Mount Horeb (Mount of God), for God loved him just as truly now as previously at Carmel. In this new strength Elijah went "forty days" (v 8; I Pet. 2:2). II. The Encouraging God, vv. 9-13. God's second remedy was to give Elijah his word though this time it suggested reproof. "What doest thou here?" Elijah is out of place. In reply he begins to rehearse his loyalty to God, and how bad the others were and then in seeming petulance he adds, "and they seek my life." "I only," are the words of the selfish man and when Elijah used them he too was a backslidden servant. It is true that there was great apostasy in Israel but the prophet was far from being the only true servant remaining. (See 18:4; 20:13; 22:35; 41; 22:8). This is a favorite way the Evil One has for paralyzing our efforts. There is no evidence but that the 7,000 were as brave, certainly at that moment more so, than Elijah. God then continued his treatment by giving the prophet a vision of himself and of his methods for advancing his kingdom. A series of symbols made the truth plainer and more impressive than words alone could possibly have done. Leaving the protecting cave Elijah first met a wind which "rent the mountains," a type of Elijah's past activity. This was not God's chief power nor method. The mighty wind which destroys is as nothing compared to the silent forces which create. III. The Result, vv 14-18. As a sovereign remedy God now sets before Elijah three definite tasks to perform. Elijah still speaks of his faithfulness as though the success of The Cause depended upon him. The man who assumes that attitude in the work of God's kingdom will, like Elijah, soon be set aside. Elijah's first task was to avoid Israel and go to Damascus and "anoint"—set apart for special service—Hazael (v. 17), who was to be the instrument of punishing Israel. His next task was to find Jehu, the commander in chief of Ahab's army, and set him aside to be the king, not immediately but to be in training for that office. Elijah's work is now not that of fire and wind, but of the "still small voice." To others is delegated the more spectacular tasks which these typify. In this connection (v. 17) those are strange words, "shall Elisha slay." To fully understand them we must be familiar with that prophet's life and work, also with that accomplished by Jehu (See II Kings 2:23, 24; Hos. 6:5; 6; Isa. 11:6.) Elijah's third task was to appoint his successor and surely no harder task ever comes to any of us than to turn over our work to another. THE TULSA STAR CALOMEL SICKENS!

Love would put a new face on this weary old world, in which we dwell as pagans and enemies too long, and it would warm the heart to see how fast the vain diplomacy of statesmen, the impotence of armies and navies and lines of defense, would be superseded by this unarmed child." Alas that the sentiment has not been accepted, but instead the world and the individual have been laying their plans, and directing their action, by a calculation of chances which, of course, can be no bigger than the human mind that does the calculating. That love has not been tried is proved by the collapse of commercial civilization, but the things of commerce and of calculation perish, while the sentiment of love endures, because it is of God, and being of God, is sure in the end to triumph.—Universalist Leader. In the good old days gone by when a gardener was kept it used to be the custom to keep a cask of lemonade from which the outdoor servants could help themselves. The gardener was noticed to go very frequently to the cask, and his mistress took the opportunity to speak to him on the subject. "John," she said. "I think you get thirsty very often." "No, mum. I don't," replied John. No, mum, I don't, replied John. "Well, John, I see you very frequently at the lemonade barrel." "Yes, mum, that's what keeps me from gettin' thirsty." WELL AND IN GOOD HEALTH Since Taking Cardui. After Seven Years of Suffering, Says South Carolina Lady. Columbia, S. C.—Mrs. L. C. Heinmann, of 331 Washington St., of this city, says: "I have received so much benefit from Cardul, I feel like speaking a good word for it to every lady I come in contact with, that I think needs it, hoping to help some one to get well, as I did. I had been sick in bed for a long time with the change of life. The doctor tended me all along, and finally one morning when he came he said he believed I would have to go to the hospital yet. I said No. I then read all of the testimonials in the Ladies' Birthday Almanac and then I phoned for a bottle of Cardui and commenced taking it. I began to improve from then on. I took five bottles continuously, then off and on for awhile, and I was well . . . and have had good health ever since, I am glad to say. I have recommended it to a lot of my friends. I was troubled for seven or eight years before I took Cardul. I think it is the best medicine on earth for female troubles . . . If this testimonial will help some one else you are at liberty to use it if you like." Begin taking Cardul today. It may be the very medicine you need. Your druggist sells it.

One night he was exceedingly late, and his wife, after fretting herself into a temper, went to bed, determined to give her husband a lesson. When she had been upstairs about ten minutes she heard a knock, so, putting her head out of the window, she inquired: "Is that you, Tom?" "Yes, Kate; come and open the door." was the answer. "What has kept you out so late?" asked his wife. "We have been discussing the real benefits of fresh air," answered he.
