Parker, a medical student at the Creighton university, Omaha, in a fit of insanity, slashed Mrs. Andrew Jackson, an invalid (whose husband is employed on the C. P. Ry.) about her body as she lay in bed at her home, 603 St. Anthony avenue, on the night of Dec. 26th. She was removed to St. Joseph's hospital in the police ambulance, and at a late hour her condition was considered critical. Parker came here last week to marry Miss Margaret Detiene, also colored. Yesterday was the date set for the wedding, but friends of the bride prevailed on her to postpone the affair. This was done, and it is thought that this, together with overstudy at the university, had unbalanced the man's mind. He was arrested Christmas day and sent to the county jail by the police as he was thought to be insane, but yesterday he was adjudged sane by C. B. Telsberg, county physician, and released. He returned to the home of Mrs. Jackson, where he has been staying. Before going to bed he stopped in at the room of Mrs. Jackson for a few moment's chat. Suddenly he jerked a razor from his pocket and attacked the bed-ridden woman. Her screams attracted Miss Margaret Deteline, who gave the alarm. Neighbors hurried to the room and overpowered the man and then notified the police. Mrs. Jackson was taken to the hospital in the police ambulance where she died at 8 A. M., Dec. 27th, and the man to the county jail. Ten different cuts were made on Parker's arm by his own weapon and one on his knee. He was overpowered by several blows on his head with an axe. Parker is a cultured and well manned young man, of respectable parentage. He was committed several years ago to an insane asylum in Omaha. During his vacation he worked as a waiter on the Soo Line Dining Cars. He is held in the County jail charged with murder. He was placed in a strait-jacket. Miss Marguerite Adams, who is at the Walker (Minn.) Sanatorium was the recipient of a beautiful watch, which was sent her as a Christmas present, by her friends, Misses Hattie Peters, Willa Moore, Ida Loomis, Messrs. Henry Crawford, James Green, Harold Cage, Marion Bolding, Ralph Warren, Ora Hall and Lewis Terrell. Fezzan Temple, Nobles of the Mystic Shrine gave their Annual Ball on Friday night, which was the best crowd of the holiday season. Splendid music and a pleasant time was had by all who attended. Mr. Ray Anderson is fortunate to spend his Holidays "ad libertem." He took a long chance at the Catholic Club Dance. Although advertised as a "social pugilist" his challenges may be accepted, and the decision will be announced from the Municipal Bench. Dr. M. H. Yeizer returned from Seattle to spend the Christmas holidays, and will return shortly. Mrs. Bertie High is visiting her husband, Mr. Henry High, who is now in Winnipeg. Mrs. Thos. Williams was called home suddenly from Winnipeg on account of the death of Mrs. Jackson. Mr. and Mrs. R. B. Chapman of 606 St. Anthony Ave., were agreeably surprised by Mr. and Mrs. W. T. Francis on their 7th anniversary, which was celebrated at their residence by a small gathering of their friends. Attorney Francis will leave next week for Philadelphia, Pa., to meet the Supreme Court of the Odd Fellows. He is the Clerk of that body, and will probably visit many of his political friends in Washington, D. C. ST. JAMES A. M. E. CHURCH. Watch-meeting services on Sunday night, Dec. 31.

The world owes much of its development to emergency men—men who fill the breach in times of danger or calamity. These men, with brave hearts and true courage, are the ones who often save an army or a state, says the Christian Recorder. Often these men who come to the front are unknown and would have been unheard of had no emergency arisen. Had things gone on smoothly the places of honor would have gone to the men of age, of long standing and experience. But when emergencies come and sons, nephews and cousins falter because they fear failure, with consequent disaster to their reputations, or because of other considerations fall to shoulder the burden, then it is that the emergency man comes forth. David was an emergency man. When the army of the Phillistines shouted defiance at the hosts of Israel and the mighty Goliath mocked at Israel's God, where were Israel's great men? Where were the sons and nephews of King Saul and his great men? Where were the experienced generals, who had won victories on many battlefields? Why did they falter? Was it because they feared for their reputations? Was it because they feared for their families? Was it because they were cowards? Why was there none to fight Gollath? Yes, there was one God raised up an emergency man. He was David. But who was David? A mere boy, an untrained warrior, with no reputation, no family, no responsibilities, and he had no laurels. David was a novice. But David conquered Gollath. This mere slip of a boy, unknown, untrained, with no noble associations, conquered Gollath. And God rewarded him. Joseph was another emergency man. He was a boy. He didn't run with the gang. He was a member of no clique. His brethren despised him. The king threw him in prison. When Pharaoh's wise men and soothsayers could not interpret his dream God sent an emergency man. He was Joseph, and he was young and inexperienced. But when the wise, the experienced, the greatly honored failed, Joseph filled the breach. Did Pharaoh put Joseph back in prison after the emergency passed? No! Heathen Pharaoh was too fair, or was it that he was only too wise? The Bible and modern times furnish many examples of emergency men—men whom greater or less emergencies have brought to the front. It is for every man to so prepare himself in heart, body and mind, for he may be needed when the time comes. SHRINERS ELECT NEW OFFICERS. Fezzan Temple, Nobles of the Mystic Shrine elected the following officers at their last meeting on Dec. 15th. J. M. Morris, Ill. Potentate; Chas. Brodie, Chief Rabban; A. D Adams, Brodie, Srabban; T.

Allen, Capt. of Guard; Claude Goodman, Outer Guard. The Waiters' and Bussmen of the Commercial Club presented to their Headwaiter, Mr. D. E. Beasley a handsome Bookcase. Mr. Fred. D. Gamble made the presentation speech as follows: Mr. Beasley, there comes a day in all of our lives when we should all strive to be happy and in harmony with our fellow man, by the grace of God we have been spared to once more witness the dawn of that glorious day. In order for man to be happy and glad, he must contribute to and be instrumental in making his neighbor happy. A couple of days ago something came into your house very mysteriously and you have been wondering where it came from. I have been chosen by the waiters' and bussmen men of the Commercial Club to extend to you our hearty greetings of the season and in token of our sincerity, loyalty and the high esteem we hold for you we wish to present to you the Book-Case which you found in your home. May you enjoy a very merry Xmas-Tide and Happy New Year and may you be spared to enjoy many happy returns of this glorious Yuletide Season. Mr. Beasley responded with a very touching talk on the spirit of the giver and the receiver and assured his co-workers that he highly appreciated their services rendered him, and also that their token of respect was an evidence that they realized that he had always tried to do the best for all concerned without malice to none.

FROM PORTER TO BUSINESS MAN BELIEVES IN A SQUARE DEAL Former Texas Boy Who by Persistence, Thrift and Economy Has Accumulated Considerable Wealth. Served In Many Capacities Before Launching Out For Himself. New York.—Among the successful business men of the race who have attained eminence in their respective fields of endeavor is James C. Thomas, the efficient and well known undertaker in New York. Mr. Thomas has one of the largest and best equipped undertaking establishments in the country, located in One Hundred and Thirty-fourth street, in the heart of the Harlem section of the city. Mr. Thomas' undertaking establishment has become one of the show places of the metropolis. The proprietor, who stands high in the business and professional world, tells a vivid JAMES C. THOMAS. story of the hard struggle which he had in working up to his present position in business. Mr. Thomas was born in Harrisburg, Tex., and went at an early age to Galveston, Tex., where he received his common school education and spent his early manhood days. As a young man he was always anxious to make his mark and began his rise in the world by working as porter and waiter on the steamboats. Twenty years ago he took up residence in New York and found work in the hotels for some time. For eleven years he worked as a steward in a fashionable club of New York and by strict economy saved enough money to enter business. While working in this capacity he resolved to become an undertaker and entered the Echols School of Embalming, from which he graduated in 1806. He opened his first undertaking establishment at 493 Seventh avenue, where he proved himself to be an efficient and capable undertaker. He was among the first of the race to enter the field in New York and by square and honest methods has built up a splendid business. The growth of Mr. Thomas' business necessitated larger and more commodious quarters. Three years ago he moved into his new establishment on One Hundred and Thirty-fourth street, which is valued at $24,000 and contains every convenience. It is well appointed, with offices and a large, spacious chapel. Mr. Thomas has ample facilities for the successful carrying on of his business. Besides his prominence in business he is active in many other directions, being identified with several race movements. He is a member of the executive committee of the National Negro Business league and at the recent session of the league in Little Rock was one of the speakers. Mr. Thomas is also a prominent lodge man. When asked to what he attributed his success in business he replied: "I owe my success to honest dealing and being prompt. I am fond of my business and believe that the only way to make a success is to be honest and square and prompt. I owe a great deal of my success to my wife, Mrs Thomas, who assists me in the business and who is an experienced undertaker and embalmer." Besides the beautiful city residence of Mr. Thomas in New York, he owns a fine country home at Fairfield, Conn. JUDGE JOHNSON'S NEW YEAR'S BALL-AT SOUTH SIDE AUDITORIUM, 12th AVE.

Ring Out THe Ow, Rine Ih The Nev: Ra old year, ring. passing of 1911 into 1912. Bvery bell, every chime, every peal, come It from brass or steel or glass, sounding in mellifuous beauty in the silence of night. marks the observance of a custom that goes back not less than fifteen centuries. Ring out the old year, ring in the new, 1s not an impulse to celebrate with mere nolse another swing of Fa- ther Time's scythe. The custom has a significance, a beauty of meaning (Mdentified with some of the earliest ob- servances of the church. From remotest antiquity bells play- eda part in religious worship. In Exypt the feast of Osiris was announced by the ringing of bells. Aaron and other Jewish high priests wore bells attach- ed to their vestments. In Athens the priests of Cybele used bells in thelr rites; the Greeks employed them in camps and garrisons, and the most solemn moment in the ritual of the Catholic church is preceded by the ringing of sliver chimed bells. Paulinus, bishop of Nola, introduced the bell into the Christian worship in the year 400 A. D. ‘The first bells were made in Cam- ania, hence the term campanile or bell tower. ‘The adoption of the bell into the services of the church soon gave the chimes the comforter’s office in the minds of the devout In their’ simple faith the worshipers belleved that con- secrated bes had the power to pre- ‘vent storms, to dive away evil spirits and to bring repose to the sufferer. The direct forerunner of the New Year bell is what was known as the “passing bell.” This was rung at the death of a believer. In theory devils troubled the expiring patient. But the peals of a consecrated bell were belleved to possess a potency that the most malignant of devils could not withstand; hence with ev- ery death the ringing of the holy bells exorcised the evil spirits and assured the soul a happy passing into a future ‘untroubled peace. From this ancient custom developed easily and naturally the habit of ring- ing out the old year and ringing in the new. Centuries bave passed, a thousand years, and stil! 500 more have been numbered since the first New Year was hailed by the music of tuned brass, but man still finds the custom beautiful and comforting, and 1912 will be saluted by more peals than any of its predecessors, ‘The bell most favored ts made of tin and copper. In the reign of Henry LL experts decreed that a bell should have two parts of copper and one of tin. ‘When Mr. Layard made his famous in- vestigation of the ruins of Nineveh he found beautifully toned bells where the proportion was ten parts of copper against one of tin. Later experts have decided that four to one Is about the right proportion. Experiments have also been made with bells of brass, German silver, real silver and gold. Some made of steel were shown to have a beautiful tone. but deficient from the fact that it could not be sus- tained. Glass bells of great thickness give out an exquisite melody, but the ‘material is too brittle to withstand the constant impact of the clapper. | So most of the bells that greet 1912 will be made according to the formula jot four parts copper to one part tin. |The most famous of the bells that have greeted New Year are now si- lenced for all time. One is a prized ‘relic of the world’s greatest autocracy; the other is a worshiped memento of the struggle for liberty that launched into existence the world’s mightiest re- public, | The great bell of Moscow, now lo- ‘cated in the Kremlin, was cast in ‘1784. Tt was the design of its makers that it should fil the air with a yol- /ume of melody that should make it world famous. In both helght and dl- ameter this colossus of bells is twenty- one feet. [t weighs 193 tons. But how vain is the planning of mankind is proved by the tragic ca- reer of this monster of sound. Only for three years did it toll forth the be- ‘sinning of the new year. Cast in 1734, it remained in {ts place till 1737. ‘Then it fell during a Ore and from its great weight sank deeply into the earth. For exactly one century it was per- mitted to remain buried. ‘Then it was raised, but the exca- vators found in its side a gaping hole, where a great piece had been broken out, No more should the bell ring. But they raised it, placed it on a solid foundation, and it now forms the dome of a small chapel made by ex- cavating the space beneath it. Now, though it may no longer ring in the new year, it can be the sanctuary for the New Year prayers of the faithful. Every New Year eve citizens of Philadelphia gather around the shrine of liberty, Independence hall, to hear the new year rung tn. Formerly this service was performed by the bell now known as the Liberty bell.

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 gospel truth must be presented in the form of generalities or some fel low will get hit and howl, saya a re cent writer. Few persons like truth, even in homeopathic doses, if it bits them. But while preachers and editors are criticised for what they do say, no one thinks of giving them credit tor what they do not say. Yet what they keep to themselves consti- tutes the major portion of what they know about people. Very many peo- ple harbor the belief that newspa- pers are eager to publish derogatory things. It's a mistake. There isn't a newspaper that could not spring a ‘sensation in the: community at any time by merely telling what {t knows. ‘There is not a newspaper that does not keep under the lock of secrecy scores of derogatory things which never meet the public eye or reach the public ear. Deciding what not to print is the most troublesome part of newspaper work. How many good stories are suppressed for innocent relatives and for the public good, no- body outside of a newspaper office has any {dea of. In some instances he who flies into a passion because a newspaper prints something about him which he considers uncompll- mentary has every reason to feel pro- foundly grateful to the newspaper for publishing 0 little of what it knows of him, And oft times the loudest butter is the most vulnerable to at- tack. A blg noise fs often a device employed to cover trepidation. News- papers put up with more bluffing than any other agency would endure. It ie not because they lack courage; it ts because- they are unwilling to use thelr power to destroy or ruin unless the interests of society im- peratively demand it. It might be well for some people to reflect upon these truths and in ellent gratitude accept mild admonition, lest worst befall them.—Minneapolis Argus. Larson, the photographer, 313° So.

Several young men, scions of the best families are becoming very annoying to the management and patrons of public entertainments. There is an effort on foot to stop them, and Judge Finehout has a straight workhouse sentence awaiting them. These young "snobs" are a nuisance, and they take advantage of every opportunity to appear obnoxious. Lack of home training is the cause of it, and the heads of their respective families are responsible. Begin New Year with a subscription to a Negro paper. If you do not subscribe to a local paper, send for your home paper. But pay for it. Race papers are a necessity, and must be supported by individuals. Every Negro should in some way contribute something towards the advancement of the Negro Press. RUSSIA AND THE SOUTH. (St. Paul Pioneer Press.) It is entirely proper that the President of the United States and the Congress should make formal protest, even to the abrogation of a treaty, against Russia's failure to recognize passports granted to American citizens of Jewish birth, but there is a little lesson at home that should be learned by some of the Southern Congressmen who have been most bitter in their denunciation of Russia for "discriminating against American citizens on account of their religion or race." Many of the states of the South openly discriminate against a class of American citizens "on account of their race." Most of the Southern States have constitutional amendments or election laws which disfranchise the Negro voters for no other reason, whatever the various excuses offered, than their race. It will be at least interesting to watch these Southern Congressmen who have been so bitter in their denunciation of Russia and see if they will demand that the Legislatures of their own states cease their discriminations against any American citizens on account of their race. DR. SMITH DEFENDS TIPPING SYSTEM. Dr. F. Smith of 74 Boylston St., Boston, Mass., in a communication to the Boston Post, comes to the defence of the poor waiter who depends on his tips for existence. He declares that the men higher up often receive the tip money, and urges everyone to be sure that the gratitulty fee is placed directly in the hands of the waiter. "When a waiter works 12 to 14 hours waiting on table," writes Dr. Smith, "he is like a blind man sitting on the corner of the street for charity. The average of our hotel patrons tip the man from $1 up for getting them a table or taking their order. Now, I leave it to anyone's judgment how much the poor white slave (waiter) who serves the repast should get for his services. His pay is only $25 a month and he is subject to all sorts of insults from the chief down to the dish washer." A REAL NEWSPAPER. A newspaper isn't simply a bare chronicler of events. It is a personality. 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 a real interest in you, ready to lend a hand if you need help. Cheerfulness and good humor are excellent qualities, and a wide range of interests. 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 sorrow 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 happen. Not often, does it? O'NEAL ON RACE PROBLEM Tells Methodist Conference Equal Protection Should Be Granted. At the recent session of the Alabama A. M. E. conference, held in Montgomery, Governor Emmet O'Neal delivered a most timely address, in the course of which he said that he recognized the fact that the two races are bound up in mutual interest, and, while the question of social equality must not enter every consideration, the state demands the Negro be given every chance to develop himself and become the best citizen possible. As governor of Alabama, he said, his activity would be bent in all these directions and he would see that as far as practical Negroes should have equal rights in the courts, with every educational, industrial and economical right of way for advancement. Secret Society Event of Importance. The public functions of Queen Esther chapter. No. 9. Order of the Eastern Star, in Brooklyn are always looked forward to with much interest by the members of the various secret societies in Greater New York. The coming reception and drill of the society, which will be held in Summer hall on Thursday, Jan. 25, is expected to surpass in brilliance and numbers that of any in the history of the organization. Sir Knight Thomas H. Wright of Ivanhoe commandery. No. 6. Knights of Pythias, will act as drillmaster. General Conference Delegates.
