In Glowing Rhetoric He Tells Colored People Artificial Limitations and Strife Will Vanish. (Dispatch Washington Bureau.) Washington, June 7.—Washing out the color line and, throwing down the gauntlet to Senator Bailey, whose passionate eulogy of Jefferson Davis seemed to be his target, Senator Clapp of Minnesota delivered a notable address in the Cosmopolitan Temple Baptist church last night on "The Opportunity of the Black Man." He threw aside the veil of the future and saw the negro on a plane of equality with the white man; he saw artificially imposed limitations and racial strife valish in the light of a new era. As he painted these things in glowing rhetoric and firm conviction, his audience, largely composed of negroes, chered wildly. He eulogized Lincoln, in contrast to Senator Bailey's tribute to Jefferson Davis, president of the Confederacy; he denounced slavery, "permanent bondage, and servitude," in contrast to the Texan's statement that "the truth of history lies on the Confederate side." His reply to Senator Bailey could not have been more complete, or more obviously planned as a reply, had he attempted to reply to the Southern categorically. "The black man is surrounded by many limitations," said Senator Clapp, "and it is his problem, if he wishes to be recognized on a plane of equality with the white man, to grasp every opportunity for development, and advancement. "God never made any race for permanent bondage and servitude to other and in the tomorrows to come, your descendants will glory in the triumph accomplished through your efforts today. There is absolutely nothing in the limitations of color to prevent the black man from being fully as honest, sober, industrious, and of as much service to the community and nation as the white man." VERNON WON'T HEAD INDIAN SCHOOL. Washington, June 10.—Protests of Oklahomaas by telegraph, and through Representatives McGuire and Morgan, against the appointment of former register of the treasury William T. Vernon, a Negro, as assistant superintendent of the schools of the Five Civilized Tribes, have resulted in a change in the plans. Mr. Vernon will be appointed assistant superintendent of schools in which Negroes and Indians are pupils. He is at home in Kansas City, Kan., at the bedside of his aged father, who is in a precarious condition. Neatly furnished rooms, all modern conveniences, good location, Mrs. J. B. Glover, 1809 5th Ave. So. Minn COLORED MEN'S CHANCES IN THE SOUTH. There is not a city, town or village in the South where an industrious negro cannot obtain employment and receive fair treatment at the hands of his white neighbors. There is not the least doubt that the relations of the two races in the South are today vastly better than they were 10 years ago, and we believe it is due in large measure to the fact that the negroes are beginning to understand that those who have the kindest feeling and most sympathy for them are the white people among whom they have been born and reared.—New Orleans States. The items from the classes, make the news of the masses. Read the Twin City Star. The Twin City Star has been published a year—and since its beginning has missed a few issues.

The judge firmly believed that a man who received the paper, although he never subscribed for it, is entitled to pay. James Thompson moved, and William Robinson took immediate possession, and received and accepted a weekly newspaper that was delivered to him through the mails every week. The goodnatured editor sent accounts frequently, but no attention was paid to them by Mr. Robinson. Finally there was a day of reckoning. Robinson had received the paper for some time, he informed the collector, but he said that he never subscribed and declined to pay for it. The judge personally questioned the defendant, who said that he read and made use of it and was receiving the accounts, which were frequently enclosed in the paper. Judgment was rendered in favor of the newspaper. The judge was severe in his criticism of people who are receiving papers and do not think it worth while to pay for what they receive and make use of it as an act of dishonesty, he said one should acquaint the publisher and pay for what numbers he receives.—X.

KING GEORGE V BELTRAMI COUNTY ATTORNEY RESIGNS Indignant Because, Ignored by Arson Plot Probers. Bemidji, Minn., June 22.—The political pot, which began sizzling in connection with the Dumas arson charge, boiled over when County Attorney Henry Funkley, a friend of Sheriff Hazen, sent in his resignation to County Auditor J. L. George. Funkley accompanied his resignation with a brief statement that he could not get along with the officials conducting the Dumas investigation. Thayer Bailey, a Bemidji attorney, has been hired as special state's attorney to assist in these cases. This was done without Funkley's knowledge. When the arrests in connection with the case were made Bailey swore out the warrants and Court Commissioner Simmons issued them without consulting the county attorney. All this has angered Funkley and he declared, after he had handed in his resignation, that he would have some startling charges to make against the officials who are conducting the investigation. He styles this as a part of the "gang" and hints that there may be some connection between the men under arrest and the officials who are conducting the probe. In the statement accompanying his resignation Mr. Funkley says in part: "If I am not competent to be consulted in the matter of issuing warrants I am not competent to try the cases after the parties are arrested, and since it appears to me from the action of Mr. Fullerton, as stated to me by said court commissioner, that I am suspected of being in league with criminals, and since I will not be county attorney in name only, I deem it but fair to the county and myself that I resign." FOR THE SUMMER CAPITOL Congressman Nye and Minneapolis Committee Laying Plans. Minneapolis, June 22.—Congressman Frank M. Nye, who returned Monday from Washington for a brief vacation, met informally with the special "summer capitol" committee of the Commercial club, to talk over the prospects for establishing a presidential summer residence at Lake Minnetonka. The details of the Minneapolis offer were explained to Mr. Nye by the members of the committee. Congressman Nye explained the situation at Washington, which precludes any action on the Minneapolis offer during the present extra session. The summer capitol matter will come up at the regular session which begins in December, so that there is plenty of time to prepare for hearings on Mr. Nye's resolution accepting the Minneapolis offer. SALVATION ARMY HAS NAVY Yacht Manned With Bibles and Song Books Put Into Commission. New York, June 22.—There was put in commission off the Battery here the nucleus of a new navy the Salvation Army yacht Jerry McAuley, the first vessel of the army's naval adjunct. Instead of great guns and quick fireers she carried Bibles and song books. The McAuley will cruise along the Atlantic shore, stopping at the principal cities and towns to hold services. Mrs. L. W. Hill Sees Mayos. Rochester, Minn., June 22.—Mrs. Louis W. Hill, wife of the president the Great Northern railway, arrived in Rochester in Mr. Hill's private car, over the Great Western railway, to consult the Mayo surgeons. Mrs. Hill said that she would be here several days. She would give no information concerning the nature of the consultation. One of Principals in Coronation Ceremonies. THE QUEEN TO INVESTIGATE INDIAN AGENCIES Three States Included in Proposed Probe. Washington, June 22.—A thorough investigation of Indian affairs of the reservations of Minnesota, notably the situation at the White Earth agency, is authorized in a resolution introduced by Representative Stephens of Texas, chairman of the house committee on Indian affairs. The resolution further provides for a like inquiry into the affairs of the Indians of Wisconsin and the Osage tribe of Oklahoma. It is provided that the investigations proposed shall be conducted by a committee composed of five members of the house. The committee is empowered to sit and act wherever it chooses. The resolution provides specifically for a thorough inquiry into the situation at White Earth growing out of the alienation of lands by the mixed bloods under the authority of the Clapp law, approved June 21, 1906. Plans to Pass Resolutions Soon. Chairman Stephens will call up the resolution in due season. He pans to pass it in the house before adjournment. If this programme is carried out the investigation in Minnesota will be begun early in the fall. The committee probably will hold its first session at Detroit. Other reservation cities will be visited. After conference with various persons supposed to have knowledge of the situation Mr. Stephens decided to make his resolution general in scope and purpose in so far as it applies to Minnesota. The resolution was referred to the house committee on rules, which is expected to make a favorable report. Representatives Miller of Minnesota and Burke of South Dakota undoubtedly will serve on the committee on inquiry. Amendment to Bill Turned Down by the House. Washington, June 22.—The house of representatives by a vote of 172 to 112, practically a strict party vote, refused to concur in the Bristow amendment adopted by the senate to the house resolution providing for the direct election of senators. The Bristow amendment leaves with congress the power to regulate the time and manner of holding these elections, while the resolution passed by the house in the early days of the present session would change the Constitution so that "the times, places and manner of holding elections for senators shall be as prescribed in each state by the legislature thereof." MINER FALLS 500 FEET In His Descent Hits Another Who Falls 700 Feet. Calumet, Mich., June 22.—As he started for a drink of water, while eating his dinner underground in No. 6 shaft, Hecla branch of the Calumet and Hecla mine, Anton Kowalski fell 500 feet to his instant death. Kowalski's body struck Joseph Gonetro, who was fixing rollers in the shaft, and knocked the latter 700 feet further down the shaft. Gonetro suffered a fractured skull and several scalp wounds. Kowalski was fifty-five years old and is survived by a widow and four children. Lind Reassures Governor. St. Paul, June 22.—That the finances of the University of Minnesota are not in as bad a condition as they have been pictured, and that at the end of the present fiscal year the university will have an absolute cash balance in excess of $19,000, are among the statements made in a letter written by former Governor John Lind, as president of the board of regents of the university, to Governor Eberhart. TWIN CITY STAR HIGH HONOR FOR DR. LYON. Appointed Consul General For Liberia In the United States. Rev. Dr. Ernest Lyon, United States minister and consul general at Monrovia, Liberia, has been tendered the appointment as consul general of Liberia at Washington. The offer is rendered the more important as an indication of the high regard the La- A. H. REV. DR. ERNEST LYON. berlians have for Dr. Lyon in their asking him to represent them with a nation of which he was formerly the accredited diplomatic representative, The commission, which was signed by President Arthur Barclay and Secretary of State F. E. R. Johnson, is already in Dr. Lyon's hands. In a letter notifying Dr. Lyon of the unusual appointment Secretary Johnson writes; I have the honor to send you herewith a commission appointing you consul general of the republic of Liberia at Washington, U. S. A. In performing this pleasant duty I avail myself of the opportunity to this important position. When you can do much for the promotion and the advancement of the people of this country. The interest manifested by you during your stay here in the welfare of the republic convinces me that his excellency the president made no mistake in selecting you for the post. I am confident that you will be a valuable Liberia's welfare and that your relations with the department will be of the most harmonious and cordial character. Dr. Lyon is a man of ability. He received his education at New Orleans university and Union Theological seminary. He has been an instructor in his alma mater and Morgan college, Baltimore. The efforts of Dr. Lyon for the republic of Liberia and the general estimate there of the man may best be judged by the following extract from a letter that Bishop J. C. Hartzell sent to Dr. Lyon a few weeks ago: In the success of your work as the diplomatic representative of the United States to Liberia you have fulfilled, and more than fulfilled, the anticipations of your friends, and in social standing, Christian character, intellectual vigor and success-epolitic administration your word will stand out as one of the brightest pages in the history of Liberia and as in every way worthy of the great nation of which you were the representative. THRIFTY AFRO-AMERICANS MAKE GOOD IN KANSAS CITY Accumulated Wealth Through Sound Real Estate Investments. The attention of the public has recently been called to several successful Afro-Americans in Kansas City, Mo., who have made their money in business and professional life within the past twenty-five years. Perhaps the wealthiest of those mentioned is John Lang, who made much money as a concert manager and invested it to good advantage in real estate. His fortune is now estimated at $200,000. J. D. Bowser, principal of one of the public schools, has also turned his earnings to good account. Besides owning the house in which he lives, Mr. Bowser owns several other properties of considerable value in the city. His estate is valued at $100,000. Dr. M. E. Lee, proprietor and owner of the Palace drug store, is one of the most successful business men of the town. The Druggist Co-operative Mercantile company is also owned by Dr. Lee. While he has been eminently successful in business, the bulk of his wealth stands as the direct result of his ability to make wise investments. Mrs. Lucinda Day owns three two story brick buildings, besides other houses and lots, with an estimated valuation of $50,000. Among other successful persons who have risen beyond the bread and butter competence are Principal G. N. Grisham of the Lincoln High school; Dan Lucas, Dr. J. E. Perry and Leon Jordan, a contractor.

WOOL BILL REPORT ORDERED Democrats Vote Almost Solidly to Have Senate Finance Committee Report Out House Wool Bill Not Later Than July 10—Supported by Progressives and Staiwarte. Washington, June 22.—The throwing of the Democratic wool revision bill into the senate drove the progressive Republicans of that body into an open coalition with the Democrats in a demand for a general revision of the tariff and brought about the threatened crisis in the finance committee's control of the senate. At the end of a bitter fight the resolution by Senator Gore requiring the finance committee to report back the wool bill before July 10, was passed by a vote of 29 to 18. The fate of the Canadian reciprocity bill is in doubt as a result of the remarkable developments of the day's session of the senate. Western Republicans, who have fought the reciprocity measure, taking up challenges thrown down by the Democratic leaders, followed each other in rapid succession in their ultimatums to the senate leaders. These ultimatums invariably were that before the reciprocity bill is permitted to pass, a Republican senator will be forced to undertake a revision of other schedules of the tariff, including much more than the woolen revision bill and the free list bill, which have gone through the house of representatives. Three Stalwarts Join Progressives Of the affirmative votes cast for the Gore motion overthrowing the finance committee sixteen were Republicans. This included the full progressive strength of the thirteen and in addition Senators Jones, Nelson and Townsend. Senator Myers was the only Democrat voting with the Republicans against the motion. As the result of the senate's action Senator Penrose, before adjournment, called a meeting of the finance committee, of which he is chairman and he and other regular Republicans predicted that when the senate next convenes the wool measure, together with the free list bill, will be reportd adversely. The fight began the instant that the wool revision bill appeared from the house of representatives. Senator Gore, apparently with the approval of Democratic leaders, moved that the finance committee be instructed to report the bill back to the senate on or before July 10. The admitted purpose of the motion was to prevent the finance committee from holding the bill indefinitely or from failing to report it at all. The result of the Gore motion was to disrupt so completely the lines that have formed in the senate that it cannot be fortold now when a vote can be reached on the reciprocity bill or whether enough votes can be mustered to pass it without amendment. The fight over the Gore motion raged until 6 o'clock. Then an attempt was made by Senator Gallinger to adjourn the body. The progressives, voting with the Democrats, refused to let the fight be halted, and with the defeat of the motion to adjourn progressives took up the cudgels and explained their purpose and their intentions on the tariff issues. Senator La Follette declared that the Democrats had been baiting the Republican progressives by asking them if they still retained their principles of downward tariff revision. He said that he favored a coupling of many tariff schudles with the reciprocity bill, so that the president would be compelled to pass upon them as an entirety. "I believe the executive who got his election on the promise of a downward revision of the tariff will not dare withhold his approval from a bill that enacts into law this Canadian pact and at the same time enacts reductions in duty in these important tariff schedules," said Senator La Follette. Senator Cummins declared his belief that congress had just entered upon a revision of the tariff "from beginning to end." "I speak for myself and for no other man," he said, "that my vote shall not be cast for the adjournment of this session, provided the Canadian reciprocity bill passes, until all tariff schedules containing injustices have been changed. At the same moment that this agreement passes we should take from the shoulders of the people the unjust taxation under which they labor." Pope Lauda Peace Move. Rome, June 22.—The Osservatore Romano says about ten days ago the pope sent an autograph letter to Monsignor Falconio, the apostolic delegate at Washington, expressing gratification at "the noble initiative of some illustrious Americans in favor of peace." Good form Don't wear colored or fancy openwork stockings with your street shoes. Always choose plain stockings to match the shoes in color. Don't pin your ruching and dress shields in place. Baste them instead and see how much more comfort they give you. It really doesn't take much longer to baste than to pin. Don't think that because collarless dresses and blouses are fashionable you can wear a low cut dress on the street. There is a vast difference between "collarless" and "low necked." Don't buy any cheap jewelry and imagine it looks like anything but just what it is—a cheap imitation of a good article. Much jewelry is in bad taste at any time except with elaborate evening dress. Don't wear soiled and mussed frills and ruchings. You had much better wear perfectly plain clothes without trimmings if you cannot keep these dainty accessories fresh and without soil. Don't forget to see that your blouse is properly fastened before leaving your mirror. The waist gaping open at the back not only looks careless, but may cause you some embarrassment too. Don't allow your skirt to slip from under your belt. In these days there are so many devices for holding the blouses, skirts and belts in place that there is no girl who cannot find one to answer her purpose if she only tries. Don't wear shoes or gloves that have lost their buttons and never wear shabby shoes or gloves if you can possibly avoid it. Keep the former nicely polished and the heels straight; keep the buttons on and the rips mended in the latter. Receiving Guests. How many women fall in the politenesses here when they give themselves up to informal ways of doing things. A visitor not too well known calls, and the lady of the house comes down in a loose, blousy wrapper, none too pretty or neat, without a word of excuse for not being properly dressed. This is carrying informality to the point of ignorance, for if there is any reason why a loose garment is worn at a visiting hour it should at least be attractive and partially fitted to the figure. Then, in the event of some slight indisposition, it is possible to invite a woman guest to go upstairs into a bedroom, where the dowdy dress of the hostess would not be so much out of place. To receive a man friend in such attire would be a grave indiscretion, for men abominate the dowing, unattractive robe, and as it is always suggestive of the absence of corsets it seems on such occasions vulgar in the extreme. The easy house gown, then, must look as if it is worn over corsets to be within the pale of the proprieties, and if masculine eyes are to look upon it it must be attractive and beited in to the figure to boot. But only an old lady or a young matron who is compelled to dress in this manner should make a practice of receiving guests in such informal attire, for the dignity of suitable dress adds greatly to one's social importance—above all, pretty, proper and becoming dress in the home. Notes of Condolence There are persons who never take notice of another's sorrow until they meet the bereaved ones. Sometimes this attitude is from fear of intrusion, again it is from fear of not saying the right thing, too often it is from procrastination. Whatever the reason, it is a mistake. There are some few who dislike outside sympathy in sorrow. The majority are hurt if it is not given. They never quite feel the same toward the friend who they think was neglectful of their trouble. The visiting card with a few words of sympathy is sufficient, save among close friends. A married woman incloses the card of her husband. Never make a note of condolence stitled. It should express you and not be an essay on grief. Also be brief. A few sincere sentences count more than pages of rambling platitudes. It is customary to send the note to the member of the family you know best, including the others in your expressions of sympathy. Etiquette For Children In answering a person children should not say "Yes, ma'am," or "No, sir," but "Yes, mother," "No, father," "I hope so, Mrs. Brown." "Thank you, Aunt Helen." They should, in other words, always affix the title or name of the person spoken to. Shyness is generally due to ignorance of what is expected of one; therefore the shy child must be treated with great consideration and encouraged to come among strangers and older people and then be shown just what to do and say. No school of etiquette offers so many opportunities to its members to learn the correct way of doing things as the family table. No corrections should, however, be made in such manner as to attract the attention of others, and, if possible, make the corrections after the meal is over. A Japanese Touch In Smart Summer Fashions. ```markdown ``` GEISHA SASHL The geisha sash combined with one of the new tabler effect gives a striking appearance to this gown of mustard brown satin, which is just the thing for smart afternoon wear. The geisha sashes are known in Paris as "la Japonaise". They have short wide bows and are worn high. The tablers are embroidered in oriental fashion in old gold and colors. BARBARIC JEWELRY. Gemmed Anklets Are Now Worn Over Stockings. The craze for barbaric jewelry, especially sets of Persian or Indian design, has reached a tremendous vogue, all of the real articles having gone up in price and a great many good imitation ornaments being now on the market. Some beautiful specimens are anklets of beaten silver and gold, a Persian anklet set with semi-precious stones and a beautiful Indian necklace made of braided silver set with turquoises and emeralds. The Venetian beads which were so popular a few years ago have given way to heavier jewels of a semi-precious character, chains of gold and silver ornaments, and especially to plaques of jewels, gold and enamel, worn on the breast and suspended by a slender chain. Among the many other jewels which form novelties of the season are the extraordinary finger rings and hand harnesses, consisting of one or more rings, a bracelet and a jewel for the back of the hands. This is distinctly an oriental fashion and has not been seen on the stage until the present time. OUTING HAT. Turkish Towelling Used In the Designing of Smart Headgear. Turkish toweling, that most plebeian of fabrics, has been used in covering the wire frame that is the foundation for this round crowned summer outing headgear. Velvet faces the upturned brim and supplies the material for the bow at the back of the hat. Trimming at the back is one of the new touches in millinery. The use of Turkish toweling for smart outing hats is an idea that com- TURKISH TOWELING HAT. mends itself to those who can appreciate the artistic possibilities of this inexpensive fabric. In the dull, unbleached shades it is particularly effective. Hats of Turkish towelling are referred to by the designer as "wash rag hats." Bleaching Fluid.

The Bee doesn't mean a bogus institution or an institution that will admit persons who say that they are editors but in reality they are nothing but frauds. An editorial association among colored editors is what is needed in this country. A real live intellectual body of men who edit legitimate papers. The country is full of newspaper frauds who are imposing upon the country. This city is an asylum for all kinds of frauds. There are frauds in every profession in this city. —Wash. Bee. FRATERNAL COHESIVENESS. A real fraternal feeling is rapidly growing among the two Masonic bodies in St. Paul, and it cannot be made to strong. On the level it's the square thing to do and plumb foolish to do otherwise. Since the election of Mr. Francis as Worshipful Master of Pioneer Lodge and Mr. Melchor of Perfect Ashler Lodge the Lodges are coming closer together. Negroes must "GET TOGETHER" and stick and the Masons are no exception to the rule. When you hear a Negro Mason talking against another lodge he has forgotten his obligation and should be reminded of it. Forget the past, wipe off the slate and work together. The Star and the community wants to see each Lodge hold the other on the five points of fellowship. SEND YOUR SUBSCRIPTION. Lo, soul, seest thou not God's purpose?

WHICH ONE? IF ANY. Many of our people complain that they have paid for one of our local publications and never received it—also that they have contributed financially to the same. This publication was started as a business enterprise, on its merits, not as a piteous object, and each issue has spoken for itself. It is supposed that people who subscribe for papers are intelligent, and should know whether they paid for this paper or The Weekly Visitor. Such sayings are generally untrue, and unfair to both papers. THE VETERANS OF THE G. A. R. And the Women's Reller Corps. The State Encampment of the G. A.

The removal of Southern colored office holders in the South from office and the appointment of Democrats and ex-Confederates in their stead. With such a record for the Republican party to go to the country on in 1912 to capture the colored vote will be bound to be effective.
