St. Paul, Dec. 22.—Archbishop John Ireland's ordination as a priest, fifty years ago today, was remembered by many friends with congratulatory messages and gifts. Mrs. James J. Hill sent a magnificent robe of ormine with a long train and fastened in front with a large clasp set in jewels. Numerous other presents were received at the archbishop's residence. They were mostly costly paintings, but the names of the donors and the description of the presents were not given out. Smiling and corteous, the archbishop received his visitors, but informed them that it was his wish to make no formal utterances on this occasion. Mr. and Mrs. Geo. J. Charleston celebrated their Golden wedding at their residence, 607 St. Anthony Ave. on Dec. 19th. The presents were numerous. A purse of $168.75 was presented by friends. There was a large gathering of all residents, and the happy couple were showered with congratulations. A full account will appear later in our columns. Mrs. Ida Lyons, of Lansing, Mich., a sister of Mrs. G. J. Charleston, attended the Golden wedding of her sister HOSPITAL WORK IN NEW YORK Brief Bits of History Connected With Its Progress. STARTED MANY YEARS AGQ. Institution Now Known as Lincoln Hospital Was Originally Established Under Title of Society For the Support of the Colored Home—Purpose of the Founders Explained. By N. BARNETT DODSON. The colored home in New York city now known as the Lincoln hospital was originally established or incorporated by the legislature under the title of "the Society For the Support of the Colored Home." A petition presented to the legislature for the repeal of certain acts passed March 11, 1839, and May 26, 1841, which appropriated $10,000 for a state hospital in the city of New York, asking a transfer of the money therein named to the colored home. These acts were repealed and a new act framed. The money was transferred to the managers of the colored home to be applied to the erection of a permanent building on the real estate belonging to the said home in the city of New York for the relief and support of disabled colored sailors and other infirm and destitute colored people. In 1848 the society purchased forty-four lots of ground lying on Sixty-fifth street between Avenue A and First avenue, upon which the managers erected a suitable building. It consisted of two distinct divisions or wings for the accommodation of males and females, each 100 by 26 feet, separated by a ground plot of 100 feet, the whole forming an open square. At the first meeting in 1839 after the adoption of the constitution twelve individuals were proposed and received as objects worthy of relief. During 1847 the statistics show that the institution had cared for nearly 1,000 persons, a large proportion of whom were from the almshouse. The colored home originated in the liberality of one Christian lady, a Miss Jay by name, who was the daughter of the distinguished and venerable John Jay, who subscribed the first $1,000 to the home, which was turned over to a committee of ladies who met at the residence of her sister, Mrs. Maria Banyer, during the autumn of 1839. The sum appropriated was especially designed for the relief of the sick and respectable colored aged. It is said, despite the fact that this colored home, now the Lincoln hospital, was originally set apart for the use and benefit of the colored people, that, while there are colored trained nurses on its staff, not a single colored physician out of the dozens or more competent medical men in Greater New York is a member of the medical staff of the hospital. Surely the original promoters of the hospital could not have intended that this condition should exist. They must have foreseen that at some time in the future the race would have its own physicians when they gave the colored race the nucleus for a great hospital in which to train its own men for the care of the people of their own race. Colored medical students have little if any opportunity to study and observe the progress of diseases in the great hospitals of New York city. Would it not be a good thing for Lincoln hospital to invite some of the leading colored physicians in New York city to co-operate with its present medical staff in the treatment of colored patients and to open its doors to colored medical students who are studying in the various medical colleges? Tuskegee as a Convention Town. Tuskegee, Ala., is looming up as a convention town. The national Sunday school congress will hold its session there in June, 1912, and in August the National Medical association will hold its annual convention at the same place. LIFE'S PURPOSE.

Dr. Washington says: During the past fifteen or sixteen years it has been my privilege to receive and to distribute Christmas presents in the way of cards, books, etc. among the very poor colored children, especially those living in the plantation districts of the southern states. During these years happiness has been carried to the homes and hearts of thousands of children who otherwise would have had little or nothing to remind them of the Christmas season. For the most part these presents have been distributed through colored teachers in the rural districts of the south. I shall be very glad to serve again, as in other years, as the medium for distributing such presents as friends may be kind enough to send.

ORGANIZATION Extracts from the Address of Hon. W. T. Francis, Before the Minneapolis Forum, Dec. 17th, at Bethesda Baptist Church. In the magnificent capital building of the State of Minnesota, as one enters the Senate Chamber, he sees in letters of gold which extend around the great room, those pregnant words of Daniel Webster:— "Let us develop the resources of our land, call forth its powers, build up its institutions, promote all its great interests, and see whether we also in our day and generation may not perform something worthy to be remembered." To have the sense of obligation resting upon us, to understand its nature, to have the glorious consciousness of the weight of responsibility upon our shoulders, in the endeavor to achieve things that are really worth while,—this is what transforms life and enables it and makes living worth while. If the Negro expects to accomplish anything in the development of real and natural forces, it can only be done in so far as he has the ability to organize,—to use his mental, physical and moral strength in organization—and his ability to build up the organization by a united effort. In the onward march of science men have learned that the dewdrop is a tiny ocean, that solidity of matter is obtained by moving particles so closely knit that the human eye sees space in vain. These silent forces speak wonders of the glowing possibilities of man in ORGANIZED function. No man lives and succeeds by himself alone. Back of every successful individual stands the organization. Behind Washington stood the ragged regimentals. Behind Grant stood the Northern soldiers. Without "the man behind the gun" the triumph of Dewey at Manila may never have been recorded. Without the 9th Cavalry the charge on San Juan Hill would have proved an inglorious failure. Without the men of means who stand behind Booker Washington, Tuskegee would be impossible. What is true of the individual is true of the organization, but the power of the organization is far more reaching, its influence wider, its purposes more extensive, in that it contains a collection of minds, hands and hearts, standing together for one purpose. But there must be a oneness of purpose in organization. That timely admonition of Webster which stands forth emblazened before the eyes of all who enter our magnificent Capital Building is pregnant, especially so, with value to the Negro man and Negro woman. Let us build up our institutions. Let us seek to do those things which will add to the life of them, and not the things which tend to destroy. We are all either builders or destroyers. There is no middle ground. Each of us belong to either the one class or the other. No matter what your social position, no matter how wealthy or how poor you may be, no matter what your occupation, you belong to one of these two great armies. By the force of your example, by your attitude on moral questions, by your honesty or dishonesty in business or in personal or political relations, by the interest you take in your organizations to make them stand for something, by your interest in your home and in everything with which you come in contact you are helping to build up this race, or you are allied with the forces that are ever busy, busy, busy trying to tear it down. Everything in nature has two elements at war within it—the elements of growth and health, and the elements of disease. Every social organization that man has devised has in it, constantly working, consciously or unconsciously, the forces that work together in unity and make for strength and growth, and the forces that tear down and destroy. The spirit of unanimity should govern the race in its dealings one with another. Whenever a Negro starts an enterprise of any kind, the Negro as a mass should be there to spur him on, to help him in his struggle for a livelihood, but we don't. We sometimes employ white physicians, white lawyers, white undertakers, white butchers and bakers and candle-stick makers, subscribe for and pay for white news papers, and stand by and see our own men and institutions fall one by one, day by day, for the want of our support and encouragement. Let me urge the members of this Forum, as Negroes, to so organize your forces that you may give to our institutions the best service of which you are capable. And in conclusion let me repeat those golden words of Daniel Webster, substituting the word "Race" for the word "land," for it seems to me no greater hope or ambition can be desired. "Let us develop the resources of our Race, call forth its powers, build up its institutions, promote all its great interests and see whether we also in our day and generation may not perform something worthy to be remembered."

After the program, (several musical numbers being canceled) the ladies served supper and sold Aprons—meeting with good success. The two nights' entertainment was conducted by the following committee: Mesdames R. B. Moulden, B. Jones, W. H. Hyde and Edw. Hammond—and it was as usual a social and financial success. Mrs. Walter Blackburn and Mrs. R. S. Brown are coming to the front as local readers. Their selections are very appropriate and their renditions, both of humor and pathos, are true to nature, and result of careful study. They will no doubt fill a place upon our programs in the future.

CHRISTMAS FOX HUNT IN AMERIGA. oe en Se ee. foe ‘the modern survival of the ancient chase that used to furnish game for the great holiday feast. Long ago in the middle ages before the day of markets, of storage houses or refrigerator cars the lord and vas- sals shared the traits of the lion and scorned to eat that which they did not Kill. At daybreak on the morning of the holiday the chieftain summoned the men of his clan, and to horse they went in pursuit of the wild boar. Across hills and level stretches, through swamps and across frozen streams they galloped till they came up with the flerce prey. In the battle that ensued the privi- lege of the most valorous feats, of undergoing the greatest danger and of finally administering the death stroke was intrusted to the noblest. ‘Then the body of the boar was carried back by the vassals, the body roasted and the head garnished and decorated to take the place of honor in the cen- ter of some long table laid in the-cen- ter of a baronial hall. Far into morning of the next day would the roistering continue, and the poor gentleman who could drink “only one bottle was destined to sad experiences tn this bout of mighty bibblers. ‘The boar has passed from the earth. No longer does the lord kill bis own Christmas feast, but in small measure he revives the Joys of the holiday hunt by bis pursuit of sly reynard. ‘There are in the United States seven- ty first class cluba devoted to the sport of fox hunting. The season be- gun at Thanksgiving day ts at its height by Christmastide, for then the air is crisp with frost, and the last of the crops that hunters might have damaged have been gathered into the barn and safely stored away. For persons of wealth these are ear- ly risers who, at 7 o’clock in the morn- ing, have gathered near the clubhouse. One comrade joins another, and a merry exchange of Christmas greet- ings recalls the holiday. Trotting behind the huntsmen and the whippers-in come the hounds, now quiet and businessiike, but at the word of command ready to break into ‘a very babble of dog noise. Horses, superb horses, strain eagerly at their bridles, anxious to bear thelr red coat- ed riders off in the chase. ‘The master of the hounds gives his word of command, and across a corn field the mad Christmas race starts. ‘To the first fence comes the mad cav- aleade. It is a high one. Over, under and through the bars scramble the dogs. Grandly on his horse the mas- ter takes the fence. Others follow. some not so gracefully. Some one falls, but the race goes on. all eager | to reach that place where in front the hound 1s giving tongue. ‘There comes a ditch whose surface 4s only partly frozen, the middle hav: ing the water free. ‘The leap Is a bad | oue, with the footing covered with Ice. but one after another the hunters put thelr steeds at it.

The American Negro is the yee Producer of cotton in the world. business methods impel bim to 80 provide for its manufacture and sale as to obtain the best values for himself and those directly or indirect- ly concerned. Cotton manufacture 1s one of the standard industries of the world. In England, France, Germany, Italy, Rus- sia, Japan and China, as well as in Mexico, Canada and the United States, several millions of people are employed in tts production. ‘The American Ne- gro is the producer of fully 90 per cent of all thelr supply of cotton.

Twenty-five homes have beet! ‘built, valued at more than $30,000. Capacity of Mop and Twine Factory. ‘The first manufacturing plant to be ‘erected was the Mill City mop and twine factory, a complete spinning mill of 2,000 spindles, with a full equip: mont of twisting and winding machin- ery, valued at $35,000, with a frst mortgage bond issue of $15,000. This plant was operated successfully during the past year, giving employment to forty operatives and nding a ready market for all its product in twine and ‘mops, having more than sixty whole- sale and jobbing bouses in its list of customers. ‘The erection of all bulld- Ings, including bot the homes and the mill, was cone by the citizens of Mill City. They are the complete masters of every detail of the construction of the building and the operation of the machinery. ‘The cotton mill of today ts a bust- ess organization capable of employ- pe, many hundred persons, creating merable positions of responsibility and trust, also permitting the develop- port ot 2 ee degree of scientific ywiedge and skill on the part of the progressive operative. There is among the colored people ample talent. suited ‘and educated fully up to all these re- quirements. ‘The lines along which this develop: ment has progressed provide not only for the factory itself, but also for cre- ating 2 model sucin! xertlement around the plant in which the operatives can purchase thelr own homes. All the houses are being planned and built in good, neat style with large and well Ventilated rooms. These homes are neatly finished after the best stand- ards. The town lies about half a mile east of Dallas within switctiing dis- tance of two railroads, the Texas and Pacific railroad being north of it and the Texas and New Orleans on the south. ‘Scope and Worth of the Main Factory. ‘The main factory, known as the Mill City cotton mill, is now belng erected and the machinery installed. The building will contain 35,000 square feet of floor space, and the equipment, all of which bas been purchased, consists of 5,000 spinning spindles, 200 looms, complete bieachery and dye works, ‘also complete equipment for a machine ‘and repair shop.

The sentiment of the American public knows no bounds. They chose any time or place to perform any ceremonies which may appeal to their fads or fancies. — The lynching of Negroes by white men is prevalent, yet the lynching of white men by white men has proven that this lawlessness is not born of prejudice alone, but out of a custom practiced by these public execu- tioners, who disregard the written laws of the land and hold justice as a mockery.

THE TRUTH WELL TOLD. ‘Don't be afraid to speak ill of the dead. No man that has lived should be saved from deserved criticism by the commonplace fact of ceasing to be alive. “I should wish,” sald the Cardinal de Bernis, “that every re- gard of politeness be preserved for the living, but that it might be per- mitted to speak freely one’s mind of the dead.” Filled as our lives are with daily shams, there is no more absurd and abominable sham about us than the mask of sorrow that we wear to the funeral of a rogut, As a matter of fact, the dead, betng safe from phys- foal punishment, should be the more open to such reprobation as their acts may have courted. In a true sense, “the evil that men do lives after them.” To condone the faults of the dead is to corrupt the morality of the living—Reginala W.

A newspaper isn’t simply a bare chronicler of events, It is' personal- ity. It comes into your house almost as a member of your family. ‘What sort of a person do you like to have visit you? ‘He ought to be honest, courageous, ‘no hypocrite, and a gentleman, with @ real interest in you, ready to lend @ hand if you need help. Cheerful- ness and good humor are excellent qualities, and a wide range of in- terests. ‘What do you find in The Star? It has opinions, of course, and it speaks them out freely. They are its own and they are not influenced by outside interests. The square deal is its platform. In handling news it observes the decencies and amenities of life. It never wantonly brings shame or sor- Tow to any home, Its advertisements are clean. If the Twin City Star does not bring you something of, interest in any particular issue, it has failed by so much that week. It takes of its hat and apologizes for having bored you as a visitor. But it trusts this doesn’t often hap- pen. Not often, does it? | > 4 c MAYOR J. C. HAYNES ° who promoted a Negro Detective, Chas. Hamilton from a plain clothes officer to Sergeant, then recently to Lieutenant of Police. INDICTED “RESORT KEEPERS” CHARGED WITH HABITUAL CRIMINAL At ‘Two Among Them are Negroes. Pleas of not guilty were entered by 14 of the 15 women indicted by the grand jury on the charge of conduct- ing houses of ill-fame, when arraigned before Judge Holt of the district court yesterday. County Attorney Robertson made an attempt to have the bail of the six women, indicted under the habitual criminal act, fled at $4,000 each, but failed. He called attention to the seriousness of the offense for which they were held and said they had treated the Iaw as a joke. “I have lived in Minneapolis 26 years,” said Mr. Robertson, “and to my knowledge some of these women have been dis- obeying the law during the entire time. It is high time that the law showed its stern hand.” Lower Bond Agreed Upon. Joudge Holt was not inclined to fix the bond as high as $4,000, and finally Mr. Robertson agreed with the court on $1,000 bonds. ‘The women indicted only for operating a house of {llfame were released on $500 bonds. Margaret Larson, who was among those cought in the raid by Sheriff Langum and indicted by the grand jury, was not arraigned because of ll ness. ‘The women indicted under the habitual criminal act are Helen Lind, Mattie and Jennie Pierce, Lyda Jack. son, Grace Edwards and Ida Dorsey. The others are Kittle Hall, Edith Rog: ers, Vivian Le Roy, Mona Moore, Gladys Wilton, Frances Stewart, Lau ra Little and Eva Lucastda Dorsey and Eva Lucas are Negroes. David Parker, who stole silverware and jewelry from Mrs. Bell, 315 14th Ave. So., was held for the Grand Jury in $500 bail. Robert Davis was arrested for beg ging on Wednesday night.
