4. 27 NO. 15 years ago the members of the Baptist Church extend to Dr. Drew to conduct in their church. Dur- lied he was there, about weeks, six hundred and professed religion. He be church in a few weeks and dollars. So successful trials and the satisfaction station was extended him at a probationary call for Dr. Drew extended an in- ery Baptist minister to at- tention. Almost every invi- cepted, and seated in the occasion was every leading star of any prominence and Walter H. Brooks, of the Street Baptist Church, pre- praises of Dr. Drew were the divines. He was compared by evangelical work. Editor in Chase, who had been imitated on that occasion, said, among things, that Dr. Drew had com- more souls and collected more than all the Baptist churches ed in so short a period. This we been the cause of the sudden sentiment of the Baptist six months' probationary the people gave Dr. Drew six city dollars in six weeks by George W. Lee preach- new. This was more than could stand. Schemes enaugurated to depose the time, and by force he was SAVON A. W. DRIW DD, WHO HAS BILMED and finally the matter was carried to the courts. Rev. Drew, the Robbins brothers—two of the strongest men in the Metropolitan Baptist Church—and about one thousand members followed Dr. Drew, and a new church was established, known as the Cosmopolitan Temple Baptist Church. Dr. Drew saw opposition springing up among a few of those whom he regarded his friends. He promptly removed those. The people were anxious for a church. Dr. Drew made every effort to purchase one for the people. He worked hard. He combatted the abuse and opposition without and within. He at Last Succeeds. His hopes have been realized. During all of the fight against him his moral character and honesty have never been questioned by honest people. He has worked night and day. He found many friends among the best of white and colored people in this city. High Government officials, business men, white workers in the community have assisted him and his people to secure a place. He kept his schemes in the backyard and worked incessantly. False petitions declared that he would get no charge. An effort was made to influence the congregation that Dr. Drew was away, and never to return again. It fact that Dr. Drew went without the necessaries of life in order to serve the people. A Place of Worship. He gave picnics and church entertainments in order to raise money to secure a church. Everywhere he went he found the hands of those who once declared him great raised against him. He found friends in such high officials as the Commissioners of the District of Columbia; Major Sylvester, the greatest police chief in the world; Cabinet officials, and the leading business men in this city. All of his church entertainments were successful. Little children have a fondness for him, and those in the lowly walks of life, although poor but respectable, follow and love him. He who impose upon his people for money to send him abroad. He had a mission to fill and he has accomplished it. He has increased his membership from one thousand to two thousand. The court restrained Dr. Drew from entering or interfering with the working of the church until the court could pass on the matter. All the members left the said church and hired a hall, where they held their meetings until the court could pass on the matter, and set aside a day to elect a pastor. At this meeting three hundred or more members' names were taken of of the regular church book, and made a new record book, and yet Dr. Drews' had the majority. They continued to worship in the hall, with a long and hard fight in law. Finally Dr. Drew won. The law declared him to be the only legal elected pastor of the Metropolitan Church. But Dr. Drew decided that he did not want to go back to the old church. Therefore he, with over one thousand members, organized the Cosmopolitan Temple Baptist Church, December 13, 1904, with the majority of the best members of the Metropolitan Baptist Church and some of the leading citizens of the United States, coming from nearly every State in the Union. Fully two thousand members, with a head light, inside of ten years this church undoubtedly will have five thousand members on its enrollment. They raised more money than any church in the city, and own today one of the largest and best pieces of property in the city, recently purchased on N street northwest, between Ninth and Tenth streets; 100 by 150 feet; formerly owned by a rich white congregation. This property is said to be worth from $100,000 to $200,000. It will be remodelled, and when completed it will be one of the largest owned by Negroes in America, and will be the headquarters where the large conventions and other large gatherings will assemble. The New Church Is situated on the north side of N street between Ninth and Tenth streets northwest. The lot is sixty feet by one hundred and thirty-five. The present structure will seat fifteen hundred people. He has paid twenty-five thousand dollars cash for it. After it is remodeled it will have a seating capacity of five thousand, and it will cost one hundred thousand dollars. It will be the creased to five thousand dollars per annum. He will be the largest-salaried largest colored church in the city The board of trustees at its last meeting voted to pay Dr. Drew a salary of one hundred and fifty dollars per month, and within two years his salary will be in colored divine in the United States. The new church will be educated January 1, 1908. When Dr. Drew announced that he had bought the church property on N. Street, and after the reading of the deed by the secretary, the congregation arose in a body and sang "Praise God from whom all blessings flow," then a prayer was offered by the pastor, in the midst of great cheering and rejoicing. When the cheering ceased a motion was made, seconded and unanimously carried, after which a resolution was then presented by Deacon Hope E. Evans, which was accepted, to increase the pastor's salitor's salary, as follows: On and after January 1, 1908, shall be two hundred and fifty dollars per month; on and after January 1, 1910, and when the membership shall reach five thousand, he shall receive five thousand dollars annually. The plans and specifications have just been completed for probably the most magnificent and one of the largest of the church edifices owned by Negroes in America. It is of a beautiful design, purely classical and of the Roman style in and out. The front elevation is so be of select No. 1 impervious press brick, trimmed with granite and marble. The main entrance will be through a three-door Roman colonnade into the vestibule. The colonnade, which will be of white mathle, is to rest on three large polished granite colmuns, with Ionic trimmings and a Vermont gray granite base. The entire building will be trimmed out in oak, walnut and maple. It will have first and second galleries in the main auditorium, which will altogether seat over five thousand people. The church is planned as near as possible after the great Cathedral and the great Spurgeon's Tabernacle of England. It will be another great ornament to the National Capital, and also a living monument to the skill, brains and handiwork of the Negro race. This edifice will be dedicated on Sunday, January 12, 1908, by the father of the Baptists of the United States, Rev. William T. Dixon, D.D., the honored pastor for forty-four years of the WASHINGTON, D. C., SATURDAY SEPTEMBER 7, 1907. M. B. DR WILLIAM E. CHANCELLOR HAS RETURNED. Christian Workers Christian Workers Convened at Greenwood.—Dr. Sheppard Grected. August 22-25, 1907. The city was thronged with enthusiastic delegates and visitors from all parts of the State, as well as from North Carolina and Virginia. Thursday evening, August 22, at 3:30 p.m. the first session opened with a rousing song service, which was conducted by Prof. C. H. Uggums, D.D., of Orangeburg. This service lasted for half an hour. Then a short conservation service was held by the President, Rev. P. P. Watson, D.D. He was followed by a tintely but intensely interesting address by Dr. D. Webster Davis, of Richmond, Va. The Thursday evening session was opened by a mammoth song service, led by Professor Uggams, which greatly impressed the congregation spiritually. Several addresses of welcome followed in DR WILLIAM E. CHANCEL behalf of the citizens, Sunday schools, and churches, to which suitable responses were given. During the evening papers were pre-We were then favored with another very earnest address by Dr. Davis,which was full of wholesome suggestions and to the point. The Friday morning session opened with an early prayer meeting from 6 to 7 o'clock, Dr. P. P. Watson presiding. The theme was "The Salvation of the Young." This was indeed a wonderful meeting, and was well attended by the young people, and showed that God's presence was there by the soul-stirring orizons that went up to the throne. The next session convened at 9 o'clock a.m. This was one of the most interesting sessions because the anxious congregation was made to rejoice as they were told of the arrival of Dr. James E. Sheppard, the field superintendent for New York, who had been no little distance away from them since the last meeting of the convention. He was greeted by the rising of the congregation. Dr. Shepard made an interesting address on "Our Work and Responsibilities." It was helpful and brought forth expressions from many persons to do more effective work. Dr. Davis spoke on this subject, "A Square Look Into the Future." His address was as usual inspiring, and the manner in which it was delivered showed that the speaker spoke from the depths of his heart. Reports from the general secretary, Dr. J. W. Moultrie; Dr. F. Y. Denby, chairman of the executive committee, and Dr. J. C. Williams, chairman of the committee on resolutions, were excellent. They showed what good had been done, but how much more there is to be done. Drs. Moultrie's and Williams' reports opened the eyes of the convention as never before and the session closed and the people went their way with more determined efforts to do aggressive work for the Master in the future. The next session was called to order by the president, Dr. P. P. Watson, at Continued on 5th page.

Washington certain questions which he wishes him (Mr. Washington) to answer. Mr. Editor:—I see through the columns of your paper that Mr. Booker T. Washington is to speak in our city in the near future, and I know that he is anxious to give good advice and to throw light upon the complex questions that are now agitating the Negro: Question 1.—We would like to know if Mr. Washington still believes that every revised constitution in the South is intended to put a premium upon good character, intelligence and the ownership of property. Number 2.—We would like to know if he is still more concerned in getting rid of the Jim-Crow Negro than he is in getting rid of the discriminating and humliating Jim-Crow cars of the South. Number 3.—We would like to know if he still believes that the acquisition of a little money, a piece of land, a brick house or an old horse, under a government like this, is more to be desired than ones civil and political rights. Number 4.—We would like to know if he still believes that industrially and skilled trained Negroes, denied of their civil and political rights, will ever be allowed to take the place of white men equally trained and with the right to vote. Number 5.—We would like to know if he still believes that the best way to help the Negro is to praise and laud the Southern white man and to make excuses for his murderous and outrageous treatment of the Negro, and to magnify the weaknesses and faults of the poor, helpless Negro. Number 6. Will he please point out wherein the speech of Secretary Taft, in Kentucky a few days ago, could be construed satisfactory to a self-respecting Negro, when he absolutely endorsed the disfranchisement of the colored people of the South, and assured the disfranchisers if they would come over to the Republican ranks there would be no interference?

(The heat knocked them out.) COLORED RACE AND LABOR B. H. WARNER SPEAKS AT DEANWOOD PARK. About One Thousand Persons Are Present at the Cosmopolitan Church Picnic and Barbecue. About one thousand persons were present Monday afternoon at the picnic and barbecue of the Cosmopolitan Colored Baptist Church at Deanwood Park. The orator of the day was Mr. B. H. Warner. There were several other speakes. Rev. Simon P. W. Drew, pastor of the church, presided. Mr. Warners address was, in part, as follows: "I am in favor of the best education for the largest number of people, along practical lines, where the most good can be accomplished. It is idle to attempt to rectify, wrongs or improve conditions by discussing the race issue. What permanent good can result from trying to prove the white race is superior or the colored race inferior in mental, moral, social or business equipment? Complaints o criticisms will solve no problem. What is needed is beneficial, practical advice and work. "If men and women are not qualified to preach or teach let them do the best they can in the field of labor for which they are best fitted, in the workshop, on the farm, or in the kitchen. Efficiency dignifies labor. The faithful employee hardly ever fails to win the grateful regard of the good employer. Prosperity brings contentment and happiness. This cannot be had without earnest effort. Dont let discontent and disappointment induce anyone to an idle life or unfavorable environment lead to discouragement. M. "The trend of all well-regulated life in America is upward for all willing workers and downward for shirkers. Some of the greatest men in the history of our country have attained their positions by overcoming opposition that would have disheartened any ordinary man. Abraham Lincoln had no inviting opportunity; often with not even a candle to furnish light for his midnight toil, he used the pine knot of the wilderness to light the pages from which he studied. "Fred Douglass, Booker, Washington and thousands of other colored men secured the respect and confidence of their fellowmen by the exercise of good sense, persistence and patience. "Labor can be dignified and respect secured by efficient service in the household and the colored race can have as a missionary working, for the destruction of prejudice and the upbuilding of strong and valuable friendships everyone who uses his or her time in faithfully performing even the tasks disagreeable and uninviting." Short addresses were also delivered by Dr. J. B. McLaughlin; W. Calvin Chase, editor of The Bee; Judge E. M. Heylett, and Mr. J. A. Lankford, a colored architect and builder. DR: W. E. CHANCELLOR Superintendent William E. Chancellor has returned to the city very much improved in health. There was a great deal of talk about nothing. Dr. Chancellor is entitled to some time off without being questioned as to where he goes or when he will return. It is not believed that he meant any discourtesy to the Board of Education. TEACHERS RESIGN. The Professional World, a paper published in Columbia and Jefferson City, Mo., states that two of the best teachers have sent in their resignations—Miss Fredericka D. Sprague and Miss Mayme Grimshaw. Both of these ladies are from this city. Miss Sprague was formerly a citizen of Rochester, N. Y. She is the grand-daughter of the late Frederick Douglass, and one of the most accomplished young ladies in this country. Miss Grimshaw is a natural product of Washington, and a lady of refinement. She is the daughter of one of the best-known citizens of Washington. She is able to succeed anywhere. USEFUL HOME HINTS 8UGGESTIONS THAT HAVE BEEN FOUND VALUABLE. Simple Remedy for the Annoying Chilblain—Novel and Effective Manner of Cleaning Laces A busy woman, employed during the day in sewing in other people's homes, sends the following useful suggestions: 1. Some one asked for a remedy for chilblains. Here is a simple cure. Cut an onion in two, put table salt on the cut side and rub it upon the afflicted part. Do this a few times and the cure will be effected. 2. To clean draperies, I use sawdust and ammonia. Put the sawdust into a tub and pour in enough household ammonia to scak it to the bottom. Beat the draperies or rugs free of dust. Put them into the sawdust and, with a small whisk broom, rub the mixture well into the article to be cleaned. The dirt will disappear at once. Hang out of doors to dry and air. 3. To clean lace, get a large paper bag and put the laces into it. Pour in a quart or more of Indian meal, and shake the bag up and down—not hard, but steadily—for some minutes. Do this several days, and four or five times a day. I cleaned a hand-made hat in that way and it came out as white as snow. 4. Get rid of water bugs and ants, weevils and roaches by washing shelves and floors with borax. I live in an apartment where there are 26 families, and I have not had a bug of any kind for years. I also clean my carpets every Friday with borax, and never find a moth. I sprinkle borax in my packing boxes when I put away woolens and feather pillows, using it liberally, and the moths never touch them. Turpentine is good for washing woodword and floors in closets and wardrobes. Moths will not live in a place that has been washed with turpentine. 5. For cold feet and cramps, an old doctor told me once to rub the shim-bone up and down until the flesh and the hand are hot. I tried it and have never suffered from cold feet and cramps after doing it. 6. A common oyster shell is a durable pot-and-pan cleaner. I got my husband to drill a hole in the center of one and to put a lid knob in it. One may buy one knob at a hardware store for three cents, or two for five cents. 7. If I put a half cupful of water in the saucepan in which I am about to cook oysters, then pour in the milk, the milk will not scorch. I let the water come to a boll, then add the milk or cream, or both. Then I let that boll before the oysters go in. I never need to clean burned milk from the side of a pan if this is done.—Montreal Herald. Iced Coffee. Pour one quart of boiling water on one cupful of coffee. Stir and let stand in a cool place, for 15 minutes, or boil five minutes. Strain. Have also a quart of well heated milk, not boiled, and pour the coffee and milk mixture into a freezer. Sweeten with powdered sugar. Cover the freezer, place in a tub of ice and rock salt, reaching a little higher than the coffee comes. Turn the handle of the freezer in different directions for five minutes, and serve in coffee glasses with powered sugar, passed separately. Clean Old Cloak It is not always necessary to send light cloth coats or cloaks to the cleaners whenever they appear a little soiled by smoke and dust. A successful method of removing surface dirt consists in rubbing the material with equal parts of oatmeal and whiting applied with a piece of flannel. The coat should be well shaken, and the same application repeated once or twice, until the cloth looks perfectly clean. After shaking it once more, it should be pressed on the wrong side with a warm iron. Renovate: Skirt. An old black skirt may be successfully cleaned as follows: First of all, brush and shake it well to get rid of the dust, then brush carefully all over with a good hard clothes brush dipped in malt vinegar, using plenty of the vinegar. The skirt should then be hung out in the air for an hour to dry, and then pressed on the wrong side over a damp cloth. The ordinary serge or cloth skirt will be found to look like new after this treatment. Tutti Frutti for Invalids. For invalids who are allowed to eat fruit there is nothing more dainty and refreshing than the following: Take one box blackberries, one-half pound cherries, peel and cut up four bananas, powder with sugar to taste and mix thoroughly. Do this early in the morning and set on the ice to get cold. Luncheon Ead Among the new social fads is that of serving a poached egg on a small square of toast to each guest at luncheons and teas. This has long been an English custom and has lately been introduced in New York by society women who have just returned from London. Putting Up Preserver In putting up fruit in glass jars care should be taken to get fresh rubbers each season. This is a comparatively small expense and will save untold worry from leaking jars. Bavarian Creams of All Sorts Are Most Palatable. Bavarian creams of all sorts make delicious and nourishing desserts for invalids. For chocolate Bavarian cream, soak half a box of gelatin in cold water for at least half an hour. In a double boiler heat one pint of milk and two ounces of grated chocolate, add the gelatin and stir until dissolved. Next add half a cup of sugar and remove from the stove, turn into a deep bowl and add one teaspoonful of vanilla; set this bowl into a pan of ice water and stir until it thickens like a sauce; then add a pint of cream whipped stiff. Stir lightly, pour into a mold, wet with cold water, set it on ice and serve with whipped cream. This must be made very early in the morning if it is to be used for lunch or tea. If a fruit cream is desired substitute fruit juice, stewed and strained, for the milk, omitting the grated chocolate. Both raspberry and peach Bavarian cream are delicious. Cheese and Mustard Sandwiches. Cream some butter, adding to every tablespoonful two tablespoonfuls grated cheese seasoned lightly with paprika and made mustard. Mix thoroughly and spread. Grated American or Swiss cheese mixed to a paste with salad dressing makes an excellent filling, as also cottage cheese mixed with parsley or cress and seasoned with paprika. Other good combinations with cottage or cream cheese are cream cheese and olives, green or black, chopped fine; cream cheese and chopped nuts, with or without mayonnaise; cheese and chopped dates or figs; cheese and chopped spinach moistened with lemon juice and mayonnaise; cheese with the yolks of hard-boiled eggs put through a ricer; cheese and sliced cucumber; cheese and preserved ginger, chopped; cheese, currant jelly and nuts. Veal Scallop. Chop into bits cold roast veal and the dressing with which it has been stuffed! Put a layer of this mince in a baking dish and moisten with veal gravy, then put in a layer of chopped canned mushrooms and sprinkle with buttered bread crumbs. Season with salt and pepper, add more chopped meat and proceed in this way until the dish is full, sprinkling the top with crumbs and bits of butter and wetting each layer of the meat with gravy. Cover the dish and bake until the contents bubble, then uncover and brown lightly before sending to the table. Use for Celery Leaves. After cleaning the celery do not throw away the leaves. Wash them carefully, spread them out thinly and set them on the back of the stove to dry. After they are thoroughly dried, rub them to a powder, and put them away in bottles. They will prove a delicious flavor to many different kinds of dishes. Try a pinch in a chicken stew, or with the scalloped tomatoes. A Savory Green Corn Chowder. This is a savory mixture of green corn, green peppers and tomatoes. To a half dozen ears of corn allow five tomatoes, five green peppers and five small onions, all minced. Cook the onions a golden brown in a little bacon fat, then add the other vegetables, having the corn cut from the cob as nearly whole as possible. Cover with boiling water and simmer for an hour. Season with salt and pepper and serve. Salad Dressing. Take a coffee cup; put into it one egg; a pinch of salt; two tablespoonfuls of sugar; one of flour; mix well, and fill up the cup with vinegar. Take a small, granite pan; put it on the fire with a piece of butter the size of a walnut. When warm, put in the contents of the cup; stir until thick and smooth. Put back in the cup, and when cool thin with sour cream. Will keep a month or more. To Steam Brown Bread. A loaf of steamed brown bread or a pudding generally has a soggy, wet place on the top, caused by the steam condensing on the inside of the cover and dropping down on the loaf. To prevent this, fold a clean dish towel two or three times, and put it on your steamer before you put on the cover. The towel will absorb the steam and your loaf will be perfect. Vanilla Sauce. Take one pint and a half of milk, stir in three beaten eggs, and pass through a strainer in a double boiler. Add three tablespoonfuls of sugar. Put on the fire and when the water in the lower pan begins to boil, stir and keep stirring until the mixture has reached the consistency of a thick cream. Remove from the fire, add a tablespoonful of vanilla, and serve warm or cold. An Herb Bouquet. In cooking recipes one very often comes across the term a "bouquet of herbs." This means that a few sprigs of parsley, a piece of thyme, a clove of garlic, a bay leaf, and a few peppercorns all tied together, ready to be dropped into whatever they are to flavor and are (in this way) easily removed. How to Bake Peaches. Peaches may be baked like apples with excellent results. Peel the fruit, put into a baking dish with sugar, bits of butter and a cupful of water. Bake until the peaches are tender. A few chopped nuts sprinkled over the top of the fruit is an improvement. They should be served cold. DESIGNS IN MAUVE ONE.OF THE MOST POPULAR COLORS FOR DECORATION. Properly Carried Out, It Will Add Charm to Any Recom—Hint as to Oriental Rugs—For the Window Shade. Mauve is becoming a popular color in decoration, but it is a color to be wisely and discreetly chosen on account of its prognosis for not lighting up well. It is a day color, rather than one for artificial light, but if carried out in the proper manner and according to certain conditions of taste, a mauve drawing-room or boudoir may be made a place of undeniable beauty and charm. The floor and woodwork should be stained dark, to afford the best setting for a plain mauve wall paper, with figured chintz curtains in some of the new art designs or in the stiff old-fashioned flower patterns with a dash of pink or yellow in the groups of blossoms. A striking chintz with a mauve ground had a large white iris conventionally treated. Striped curtains in two tones of lavender or green look well with either a plain or figured wall, but the severely plain hangings should only be used in conjunction with a figured wall paper. These come in lovely patterns—wistaria, violets, iris and trellis designs, making choice a difficulty. In purchasing oriental rugs be sure to avoid a certain kind made from goats' hair if you are, sensitive to odors. In damp weather these rugs grow decidedly unpleasant, and nothing but several days in the sunshine seems to tone them up again. Age does not affect this peculiarity, although it sends up the price of the carpet. Nor can one usually detect any disagreeable smell in the shop, where the stock is kept aired and dried. Window shades are often rather expensive things to replace, and yet they soil very quickly. Many housewives will be glad to know they can be made out of Indian Head cotton, which can be had for ten cents a yard. Fasten the material straight across the old rollers—or buy new ones—with many tacks, stitch a wide enough hem at the bottom to hold a flat stick of the proper width and run it in. Shades that have become ragged at the bottom are often improved by cutting and rehemming. A screw-eye fastened into the center of the stick through the muslin will hold the cord. In making a plain fruit cake, if the raisins and currians are warmed in the oven before mixing them in, they will not sink to the bottom in "that distressing way." A very good pudding in which to use cherries is made by covering the bottom of a baking dish with the fruit, above this a layer of breadcrumbs and lumps of butter. Go on alternating until the dish is full, breadcrumbs being the top layer. Cover the dish and bake ten minutes more to brown the top. If the cherries are well sweetened beforehand, this is an excellent dessert with a hard sauce flavored with nutmeg. Cocoa Macaroons Pass through a sieve, together, one cup of sifted flour, half a cup of granulated sugar, two level tablespoonfuls of cocoa, half a teaspoonful of baking powder, one-fourth teaspoonful each of salt and cinnamon, one-eighth teaspoonful each of cloves, mace, and nutmeg. With these mix the grated rind of an orange and one-fourth of a cup of chopped citron. Break one egg and the yolk or white of another into the mixture, add also a teaspoonful of vanilla extract, and mix the whole to a stiff dough. With buttered hands roll the mixture into balls about the size of hickory nuts. Dip one side in granulated sugar and set some distance apart in buttered pans, the sugar side up. Bake in a quick oven. The recipe makes eighteen macaroons. Curried Left-Overs This is a family name for blits of mutton, lamb or veal which are too ragged to be served in any other way. They are first passed through a chopping machine and then mixed with an equal quantity of cold rice (boiled), and seasoned with pepper, salt and curry powder and a little chopped parsley or celery if it is at hand. Form into small cakes or croquets, using a raw egg to hold them together: dip in egg, roll in crumbs and fry in deep lard. Any cold, cooked cereal can be used instead of the rice, although rice seems to lend itself to curries with peculiar appropriateness. Egg Sauce. Heap two tablespoonfuls of butter in a saucepan. When it bubbles, put in (all at once) two tablespoonfuls of flour, and stir from the sides toward the center of the pan until the ingredients are well mixed.

Strike breaking has become to chiefs of corporations a recognized business and they are in constant touch with men like Farley and Bowen. Railroads, street car companies, machine works and institutions employing large bodies of workmen keep strike-breaker bosses on the pay-roll even in time of peace. The instant the suggestion of a strike is made the strike breaker boss is notified and sends his secret agents among the dissatisfied workmen. Then he begins to enlist men capable of working at this particular trade and holds them in readiness for a call. They are under pay while waiting orders. The handling of strikes is not banned in the offices of the corporat-ies Farley and Bowen each have done in big buildings on upper Broad- the profits of Farley and Bowen mainly from the increased wage and per man furnished to break the strike. For instance, when the sub- tute up began twenty months ago, motorman's pay was $3.25 a day, the guards and train hands got $1.75 to $2.25 a day. While being the strike Farley received $ a day for each man he furnished, addition to $1,000 a day for person- ship supervising and commanding the breakening force. He pays his $2.50 a day. In less than twenty hours after the strike had been warded Farley had 500 men at work an average pay of $5 a day.

Arley got into the strike-breaking business in a peculiar way. He ran an small hotel, at Plattstburg and while ill with typhoid fever he wandered off in a delirium and got rid of all his monies. When he recovered he found himself in Brooklyn broke, while the B. K. T strike was on. He got a job as a postman and that suggested his present occupation. He has since broken strikes in Chicago, Cincinnati, San Francisco, Waterbury and many other cities. WHIP-CRACKING IN CHURCH. Old Custom Believed to Have Been Penance for a Murder. London.—Whip-cracking in church was a custom formerly practiced, though not without protest, at Calstor, Lincolnshire, on Palm Sunday. Many attempts were made to suppress it, and about 70 years ago the lord of the Manor presented a petition to the house of lords with that object. "A cart whip of the fashion of several centuries since," ran the document, "called a gad-whip, with four pieces of wych-em bound round the stock. A Whip-Cracking in Church Porch. and a leather purse attached to the extremity of the stock containing 30 pence, is, during divine service, cracked in the church porch, and while the second lesson is reading is brought into the church and held over the reading desk by the person who carries it." A local tradition inclines to the view that the custom was originally a penance for a murder, and that the lord of the manor of Hudson could exact some penalty from the Lord of the manor of Broughton if it were omitted. For many years the attempt to put an end to the custom failed, but in 1816 the objectionable practice was allowed to lapse. MAY RUN FOR CONGRESS Gen. Corbin Willing to Enter Contest If People Wish It. Cincinnati.—Congress has no particular attraction for Lieut. Gen. Henry Clark Corbin, but he announced the other day that he would be willing to run in the Sixth Ohio district, and to serve, if elected, if the people desired him as a candidate. He made this announcement when he was told that his friends at Batavia, O., desired to nominate him. The Sixth district has had a factional fight on its hands for some time, and it is considered that the nomination of Gen. Corbin would bring about harmony among the Republicans. Gen. Corbin said that he was not ambitious and was not ask- LIEUT. GEN. CORBIN. (Retired Army Officer Who May Enter Race for Congress.) ing anything. "I am a plain American citizen," he said, "and accustomed to obey orders. I would 'do anything to serve my people if they wished it so." Gen. Corbin, who was retired from the army a short time ago, was born at Batavia, O., 66 years ago. College Graduates In the World College Graduates in the World. One of the Yale professors has been making a study of the occupations of Yale graduates by classes. He finds among other things, that a constantly lessening number are entering the ministry, and a steadily increasing number are studying law. The law now claims more than twice as many as any other profession. Next to it comes finance. Fewer than one-twelfth of the graduates enter the ministry, in spite of the fact that one of the purposes for which Yale was founded was "to train godly young men for the Christian ministry." But, side by side with these facts, it is also noted that charitable and philanthropic work—the giving both of money and of service—is yearly claiming a larger share of the interest of educated men and women. Perhaps that is where the "godly young men" of to-day are going. Youth's Companion. Prevent Hair Falling.

Is Situated in Little Snake River Valley, the Scene of Many an Exciting Adventure with the Indians. Denver, Col.—The people of Colorado feel that "Jim" Baker's old cabin on the Little Snake river should come under the law that gives the government supervision and control of historic places of interest. The cliff dwellings of Colorado have been set apart as a national park. Beecher island Indian battlefield is also a national park, and there is a monument where Maj. Theonburg and his troops were killed in northwestern Colorado when they were marching to the rescue of the Ute agent, Meeker. As interesting as any of these places is Jim laker's cabin, built in the early 40's by this intrepid trapper, scout and pathfinder, who ranks with Jim Bridger and Kit Carson among the great characters of the early west. Here Baker penetrated, long before any other white man thought of settling in such a wild country, and here he lived with the friendly Indians and fought the unfriendly tribes, every day being spiced with some thrilling adventure. Baker's unique cabin, which is built with a "lookout" on top, where the trapper used to watch for unfriendly Indians, is located in a romantic spot. It is in the valley of the Little Snake River, which winds along the Colorado-Wyoming state line. It is in the foothills of the Sierra. Madre mountains, and near it is the celebrated Battle mountain, where Baker and some trappers and squaws successfully stood off a large attacking party of Indians. Few visit the spot to-day because of its inaccessibility, but this will soon be changed. A few, miles below Bridger's cabin the Routt County Development company of Denver is opening 50,000 acres of state land to settle Baker's Cabin with Indian Lookout on Top. ment. A 60-mile irrigation ditch is being built, and next year, when the water is turned on the land embraced in this vast project, "Jim" Baker's once lonely valley will be thickly populated and there is no doubt that a spur of the Union Pacific railroad will reach it from the north, while the new Moffat road, from Denver to Salt Lake, will pass within a few miles of it from the south. Old "Jim" Baker himself would never have dreamed of the rush for this valley which the building of the Little Snake river ditch presages. He moved into the Little Snake country early in the 40s, it is said, because some one had moved, into the same county with him in the eastern part of Colorado a year or two before, and he considered the country was getting "too derned crowded." Even when he died, in 1898, there was little indication of the present great demand for cheap irrigated land, and the scout would have scoffed at anybody who would have prophesied the coming of a great irrigation enterprise to the Little Snake river valley. "Jim" Baker's experience in the wild west, particularly in Wyoming, is only paralleled by "Jim" Bridger. Baker was born in 1818 at Belleville, Ill. In 1838 he joined a company of recruits at St. Louis, in the service of the American Für company, and made the long journey up the Missouri and across the plains into Wyoming. It is a notable fact that this first expedition was in charge of "Jim" Bridger, and it was only through the tact and resources of this notable plainsman that the entire party was not lost. Many times the party was stopped by savages, and the warriors held a council to determine whether to kill the white men or let them go on. But always, according to Baker, "Jim" Bridger's quickness of wit, and his extraordinary knowledge of the Indian character saved the scalps of the entire outfit. In all the years of his frontier experience Baker declared he was never nearer death than on this first tril, which ended at the mouth of Popo Agle, on Wind river. Baker's cabin was the scene of many an exciting skirmish, and the forethought of the old trapper in building the queer "lookout" on his house was more than once rewarded when he headed off Indians who sought to surprise him. In 1855 Baker entered the services of the government as a scout, and for several years he was looked upon as one of the greatest scouts and guilders in the service of the army. The Pike's Peak excitement drew him into Denver and in 1859 he built a home on Clear creek, not far from the present capital of Colorado. Here he remained until 1873, when he went back to his first love—the Little Snake river valley. Baker, like the other old trappers of his day, had several Indian wives. Many of his children now live in Colorado and Wyoming and they are justly proud of their intrepid ancestor. WINS NEW FRENCH HONORS. Rodman Wanamaker Made Officer of Legion of Honor. Philladelphia. In the recent promotion of Rodman Wanamaker to the grade of officer of the Legion of Honor the president of France has recognized a remarkable achievement. Mr. Wanamaker is the younger son of John Wanamaker. He and his brother, Thomas B. Wanamaker, who is the proprietor of the Philadelphia North American, have long been associated with their disguised father in his great mercantile enterprises, notably the big New York and Philadelphia department stores. Rodman Wanamaker established the Paris branch and set a precedent. M. RODMAN WANAMAKER. (American Who. Has Won Signal French Honor Through Business.) He brought about a practical commercial reciprocity, which never existed before, and which has worked to the advantage of both nations. By making a personal study of the situation in France he found a way to supply the deficiencies of the American market by drawing upon the skill of the French workman. He showed the Frenchman how to make goods that America needed and that could not be bought at home. At the same time he introduced into France goods in which America excels. Ten years ago he was made a chevalier in the legion in recognition of his services in the encouragement of art. His promotion in the order, however, is due as much to his commercial achievement as to his work in the interest of art. For several consecutive years he has been president of the American Art association of Paris, an organization which includes French, as well as American students. From the time he went to Paris in the interest of his father's business he has been a patron of the French salons. He has bought and shipped to this country hundreds of masterpieces. From the salon of 1903 alone he purchased more than 400 paintings, all of which were exhibited in the Wanamaker stores in this city and Philadelphia without cost to the public. Mr. Wanamaker is a stanch advocate of outdoor culture and a prominent clubman. MOOSE BROKEN TO HARNESS Minnesota Man Owns One of Oddest Team In America. Eldora, Ia.—Edward Crossman, of Ely, Minn., owns one of the oddest teams in America. He succeeded last winter in breaking a pair of moose to drive in harness. In his sleigh Mr. Crossman spun about as rapidly behind these animals as if drawn by horses. The moose were captured at Bear Island lake, a few miles to the south- Crossman's Moose Team. west of Ely, five years ago. The mother had been killed by an Indian, and a trapper in the neighborhood, hearing the dog barking, hurried to the spot, where he found two moose calves. Mr. Crossman bought these calves from the trapper and secured a permit from the governor to keep them in his possession. At first the moose did not like the idea of being hitched up and they made a great fuss, but being young they took to it sooner than if they had been full grown. The problem of feeding the moose was no small one. At first Crossman fed them willow twigs and young birch, but this became a difficult task, for they required about three wagon loads a week. To-day they eat hay, turnips and cabbage and seem to enjoy the diet. One of the moose will eat as much as two horses. They nibble at something most of the time, except when lying down in the middle of the day. Each moose weighs about 850 pounds. Nothing tickles a woman more than to find one of her own hairs on her husband's coat. MILLIONAIRE IN JAIL CONVICT INHERITS WEALTH BUT CANNOT SPEND IT. Pasquale Monaldi of Italy Sentenced to Fifteen Years' Imprisonment for Murder, Comes Into Riches. Seldom has there been afforded a more striking illustration of the irony of fortune than that which has befallen a young Italian. He has suddenly become enormously wealthy, but the unexpected access of riches only adds to his misery. He cannot spend a cent of it on himself. He has to work hard without pay and subsist on the plainest fare, although money enough is his to enable him to wallow in luxuries were he only to get it. Pasquale Monaldi is a millionaire, but he still remains a convict. Not long ago he was working wearily at breaking stones under the African sun on the island of Lampdusa, between Malta and Tripoli, wondering why he had been sent into the world if the end was the four walls of a prison during the best years of his life, when a companion, seeing his dejection, undertook to cheer him up by predicting that something would certainly happen. "Yes," said the other contemptuously, "I can die, that's what can happen." The same mood followed him to his cell, and it was with a smothered oath that he looked up when a rattling at his door announced a visitor. Two men walked solemnly into the narrow cell, and standing before the convict asked him if he had not felt in his bones that something was going to happen. "Happen." exclaimed Pasquale roused to fury by the second harping on the same theme. "don't bother me J. DASQUALE, MONALDI. with happenings, what I want is to be left in peace! "Very well, then," said the visitor, "I shall have your millions and leave you in peace!" After balting the poor fellow some time longer until he was rapidly losing his head, he was told that an aunt, whose very existence he had forgotten, had just died, leaving millions, and that he, Pasquale, the poor convict, was her only heir. "What are you torturing me for?" he cried, "that would be the limit! Millions outside and I—a prisoner! I will not believe in such ill luck!" But, all the same, it was true. Pasquale's aunt, Berta Forlani, went when young to South America with her parents, where she married a miner. This miner discovered a silver mine, and died leaving her rich. The now old and childless woman had just passed to her long rest, and her nephew is the only survivor of the whole family. Pasquale, who was a barber, is in his convict prison for 15 years, and is now just 25, having served three years already. His crime was murder, but not premeditated. One evening he was out walking with his sweetheart, Rosa Gambrotta, but the course of true love was not flowing very smoothly. She was not as wrapped up in her companion as he would have wished, and in his eyes, was too conscious of the admiring glances thrown at her. When he was in a thoroughly bad temper they met a certain Giuseppe Bottego, his most feared rival, who greeted the girl familiarly, all three stopping to talk. Rather free jokes passed between Rosa and Gluseppe, which ended by the latter catching her about the waist, and, with a ribald jest, planted a resounding kiss on her red lips. She, taken aback, screamed, and furiously demanded if Pasquale would stand by and see her thus treated. Pasquale on his side saw red, and drawing his knife struck wildly at the offender, sending the blade straight into his heart. It was all over in a moment. The victim sank dead to the pavement, while the murderer and girl, hoping to get away in the darkness and loneliness of the road, turned to run, but were stopped. All this came out at the trial, which ended in Pasquale being sentenced to 15 years' penal servitude, the bitterness of his fate being intensified by the knowledge that Rosa was a heartless firt, who would speedily dry her eyes and console herself with another lover. And the millions? They will be administered by some one appointed by the courts, and if he is honest Pasquale will find them waiting' for him when he comes out. If he should turn out dishonest, Pasquale may find himself as penniless as when he first donned the convict's garb. Beekman Family's Mahogany Carriage in New York Once More. New York.—There was taken to the New York Historical society's building from Oyster Bay, L. I., recently a coach in which George Washington used to ride. Although it was built more than 160 years ago it is in an excellent state of preservation and could probably make many a long trip yet. The coach was built in England for Gerard, Beekman. It was first taken to the family home of the Beekmans, on what is now Beekman street. New The Beekman Coach. York, and was used by the family up to and during the revolutionary war Just after the war, when Washington was president, he was often the guest of the family, and the coach was put at his disposal and often used by him. When Gerard Beekman died it was bequeathed to his son, William, the grandfather of the present owners. That part of the will which relates to the coach was framed and still hangs in the Beekman homestead at Qyster Bay. It reads: "To my son, William B., I bequeath my coach, trusting he will preserve it as my other children think it too old fashioned to have around. Dated November 3, 1801." The vehicle is built of mahogany and is elaborately carved in relief. The blue scroll painting is still visible over all the framework. The body of the coach measures seven feet nine inches from the floor to the roof. It slopes in front, and while the front wheels are of the ordinary size the rear wheels are six feet in diameter. The coach is so high from the ground that three steps are necessary; these fold up so that they form a block of iron ten inches square. On the doors at each side is still visible the coat of arms of the Beekman family. Two panes of glass 10x12 inches in the front of the coach give light. The coachman's seat in front is guarded by a wide strap with a big buckle. There is a seat for the footman at the rear, with ample room for baggage. Under the two seats in the carriage are large drawers. The coach is lined with heavy gray felt which is badly torn and notheaten. The present head of the Beekman family, Gerard Beekman, kept the coach for many years in a special coach house, and the coachmen were under instruction to save it first in case of fire. SENATOR MAY BE PROSECUTED. H. A. Dupont Figures In Case Against Powder Companies. Washington.—Senator Henry Abgernon Dupont, who may be subjected to a criminal prosecution if the government wins its case against the powder combine, was elected United States senator from Maryland in 1908. He has long been connected with the powder company, but is supposed to A. SENATOR H. A. DUPONT. (Head of Powder Trust Who May Be Prosecuted.) have sold his holdings after his election to the senate. Mr. Dupont was born in 1838 and was educated in the University of Pennsylvania and the United States military academy. From the latter institution he was graduated at the head of his class in 1861, and he took an active part in the civil war, being breveted lieutenant colonel in 1864 for distinguisbed services, besides being awarded a congressional medal. In 1875 he resigned from the army, and for a time was president of the Wilmington & Northern railroad. For a number of years Senator Dupont has been engaged in agricultural pursuits more for pleasure than profit. He is a widower. Hobby of Prince of Wales.

A ballot in the hands of an ignorant voter is almost as dangerous as a loaded gun in the hands of a child; it is apt to do more harm than good. Like other good things in this world, the ballot must be used intelligently to be most effective. It is an individual possession, and should only be used to further the interests of its possessor. Therefore, each voter, before casting his ballot should ask himself how it will be possible for the man or principle for which he votes to help him individually. Unless their interests are the same, the voter must expect to find the man of his choice arrayed against him when the test comes, for self-preservation always has been and always will be the first law of nature. Hence, when a candidate, in seeking votes, promises to represent conflicting interests, he is agreeing to do the impossible, for no man can serve two masters, and he will always be found in the service of the one that he believes will best advance his own selfish interests. This is the main reason why there is so much fraud and corruption in public affairs: the interests of the briber are opposed to those of the voters, and he uses money as the means of securing his ends by corrupting the official, depending on the exercise of the privileges he secures to recoup himself. The only way in which such practices can ever be stopped is by removing the incentive, that is, by making it impossible for the individual to derive a profit through a public franchise or untility. In other words, whatever is collectively used must be collectively owned and operated. Today the negro is, or should oe, intensely interested in the labor problem, for he is in the producing class as distinguished from the nonproducing class, or capital class, and a very casual investigation will but show him that the real interests of these two classes are diametrically opposite; the laborers trying to get the most for the least effort, and the capitalist trying to give the least for the greatest amount of the products of the laborer. This being true, how should the Negro cast his vote as between these two factions? He must remember that the men who own most of the property are generally well educated and know better how to accomplish their purpose than the uneducated, and also that their wealth carries a weight that the man without property cannot hope to exert. Where there are but two parties, or candidates, and they are both dominated by the wealth-owning class, it makes but little difference to the voter of the producing or using class which of the two is successful, for his interests will be only secondary, if they are not entirely neglected, by any legislation that will be enacted by the successful party. Under these circumstances the poor voter virtually throws his vote away by voting for either of such parties, for he must expect to see any promise broken under sufficient pressure that was made for the pur- pose of getting his vote. On the other hand, a vote is not lost if cast for one whose interests are identical with the voter, even though his candidate should be deated, for the growth of such a party will cause the self-interest, or ear for self-preservation, of the successful party to enact legislation that otherwise wold not have been done. IT IS AMUSING. Long before the nomination of President Roosevelt The Bee opposed him and it continues to oppose him. It now seems that a few Negro candidates for the next convention want to insist on placing its Editor in the Roosevelt column. These candidates must do better than that. They must have a real live and new issue to defeat the Editor of The Bee as a delegate to the next convention. The white Republican who has been selected is a simon pure Republican who believes in human rights and has on more than five hundred occasions upheld falling humanity. The Record, the organ of the candidate for Bishop and other paper that doesn't know where it stands, have stated that The Bee has betrayed Senator Foraker. The Bee is under obligations to no man and neither does it betray the confidence of any one. The Editor of The Bee is a candidate for delegate from this city to the next National Convention and he is against Roosevelt and all of his policies. He is against Taft and the entire Administration combine. Will the candidate for Bishop declare himself? The Editor of The Bee has been for Senator Foraker long before the Brownsville incident and long before any person ever thought of naming him for president of the United States and long before Senator Foraker ever thought of having his name mentioned for the Presidency. The Bee has been an admirer of this distinguished Senator and the only time that it ever opposed him was at the time he opposed Senator-Hanna for the misfit in the White House. The Bee is under obligations to no man or set of men. Senator Foraker ought to be proposed, and if any colored man opposes him, he should receive a paralytic stroke in the hand that accepts a bribe. The colored Americans owe debt of gratitude to Senator Foraker. They should never forget what he has gone through to sustain human rights. The honesty of The Bee is only questioned at any time by demagogues and religious hypocrites. Show one line that The Bee has published that would warrant a doubt in the minds of honest people. The Bee will rise or fall with Senator Foraker and he knows it. When he doubts the honesty of The Bee, then let demagogues speak. ONT DOLLAR PER! There are some saloons in this city where whenever a colored American enters and calls for a drink of whiskey or a glass of beer, etc., he is ifformed that the whiskey is one dollar per drink or the beer is twenty-five cents per glass. The excise board should reject such saloon licenses because it is in violation of law. While The Bee doesn't approve of saloons in any shape, certainly when such establishments go so far as to discriminate against any citizen on account of his color by charging such high prices, such places should not be granted licenses. Whereas the law permits saloons to exist, they should not allow any saloon to overcharge any citizen on account of his color. As a matter of fact colored citizens have saloons conducted by those of their own race, they should patronize them and not subject themselves to insults. There are saloons in this city whose proprietors have earned a fortune from colored citizens but who now inform them that their trade is not wanted. When colored citizens learn that it is best to patronize their own saloons, other nationalities will cater for their trade. Just why colored citizens insist on going to places that don't want them The Bee is unable to state. There are several first-class saloons, in this city, conducted by colored Americans and they should be patronized. Why then is it necessary for colored men to go where they are not wanted? Let the colored citizen who drinks whiskey, beer, etc., go to their own places. Let them say to the white saloon keeper, if you don't want colored trade, there are places that do. What better places can be found than Gray's, Moore's. Cosley's, Gaskins & Gaines', Holmes', the Philadelphia House, and other places, too numerous to mention? The time has come for colored citizens to become more independent. When this is shown, the colored citizen will be respected. HURTING THE RACE. It is to be regretted that the entire colored race must be blamed for the conduct of a few unruly upstarts, boys and girls, and in many instances a few of the denizens of the alleys. In a large degree the pulpit ought to be more active and see if there are any in its congregation or in the vicinity in which the church is situated that could be reached by admonishing these individuals to be more careful as to their deportment when they board a street car. Last Sunday morning about five young colored men boarded an Eleventh Street car under the influence of liquor. Just where they secured the liquor so early, it being about nine o'clock, and just how they became intoxicated so soon, is a mystery. They were noisy and to a great extent profane. These are the conditions that injure the better element of the colored Americans. If the pulpit would do its duty in this particular instead of seeking graft and impoverishing the congregation by collecting large sums of money to go abroad, the condition of the colored people would be improved. After many of these ministers go abroad, what benefit is it to them? They go and return and sit down and wait until the next year, then many of them suggest other schemes to get money from their congregations. It is hoped that a more charitable observation will be taken by those who have power to give and take away. All the colored people are not alike. The better element of colored people are not responsible for the acts of those who don't seem to improve their condition. These conditions are hurting the race. WHY PATRONIZE THEM? A correspondent a few weeks ago called to the attention of the readers of The Bee the wholesale discrimination of colored citizens in the several places of amusement in this city. The colored people know that that they are not wanted in them and why do they patronize them? Why will they continue to be humiliated? Certainly if these places of amusement don't want them, it seems to The Bee that these people degrade themselves by patronizing institutions that don't cater to colored patronage. The Washington Times some few months ago publicly stated that it did not cater for colored patrons, but it seems to The Bee that more colored people purchase the Times than ever. It can be justly said, whenever you see a colored person with a Times, you may conclude that he is a fit subject for St. Elizabeth. No colored person with a grain of sense will purchase the Times after such a declaration. There is something wrong with some colored people. They should not go where they are not wanted. They should not purchase a paper that has declared that it doesn't cater for their patronage. If they must read a daily paper there are several in this city that are friendly to them and will undoubtedly give them a square deal, namely, the Star. Post, and Herald. Hereafter if a colored citizen is seen with a Times in his hands, put it down that he is a good subject for St. Elizabeth. Prof. Booker T. Washington has a right to declare for Mr.Taft if he so desires. Is that any reason that he will be nominated and elected? Mr. Washington has expressed his opinion and it will go for what it is worth. Now TheBee expresses its opinion. Mr. Taft will not be nominated, and if nominated he will not be elected, notwithstanding the aid President Roosevelt may give him. The friends of Mr. Washington have the same right to become offended with The Bee as the friends of Mr. Foraker have to be some offended with Mr. Washington. The Bee would suggest to the colored Americans to drop the name of Taft and don't worry, because he has no more show of being nominated than the editor of The Bee has of being appointed to the United States Supreme Bench. Let us work for the nomination of Senator Foraker or someone named by him. Burton will be nominated in the city of Cleveland, to defeat Mayor Johnson. Burton is against Senator Foraker; hence all loyal Republicans must vote against him. It is a scheme to secure a Taft delegation. Burton must be defeated. Mayor Johnson is a better man. SUPERVISORS TRANS- FERRED. The transfers of two supervising principals will enable them to show their ability to discipline, if nothing more. When men arrogate to themselves superior authority simply because they have been put in a position of power is no evidence that they should use that power to the detriment of those under them. It is not necessary at all to exercise domineering power the weak. Female teachers in the public schools have some rights that should be respected. Some people in power should be given an opportunity to show what they can do with the impossible. Let us see what we will see. THE JIM CROW NEGRO. Notwithstanding the continued discrimination against the Negro he continues to patronize the Jim Crow theaters. You will see they going in droves to the Jim Crow theater and begging for a seat in the Jim Crow corner. Will the colored American ever learn any sense? Will he continue to be the sycophant and poodle doodle dog for poor white trash? The Bee has seen many things in its life but it is a novelty to see colored people purchase tickets at a theater to be Jim Crowed. The address of Mr. B. H. Warner at Deanwood Park, Monday afternoon, was full of solid sense and good advice. THE TRIUMPH OF REV. SIMON ..P. W. DREW, THE EVANGELIST, IS REMRAKABLE.

A description of this program would be incomplete without some reference being made to the original poems rendered by Mrs. Morser and Miss Julia Watson, of this State. It gives me inexpressible pleasure to mention the number of original poems rendered by Dr. D. Webster Davis, of Richmond, Va., and the obliging way in which he responded to the many encores. Miss Ada Williams recited "Tlte Street Musician" with much pathos. The Saturday morning session was opened promptly at 9:30 o'clock. The most interesting feature of this service was the Question Drawer, conducted by Dr. J. E. Shepard. The questions were heaped upon him and were fluently unraveled as fast as possible. This proved to be a splendid way to bring light to those, who needed it on vital subjects pertaining to Sunday school work. A masterly paper was read-just after this most interesting feature of the program by Rev. J. C. Gibbs, B.D., on "Supplies and Periodicals." This also was helpful, and the session closed, all feeling benefitted by what they had seen and heard. In connection with this convention was the Sate Lawson W. C. T. U., which convened on Saturday morning at the same time the convention was in session. 'Twas a beautiful sight to see the women, old and young, who came from far and near to fight the one great evil, the liquor traffic. On Saturday evening a large crowd assembled in the Morris Chapel Baptist Church, a very commodious structure, to witness the mammoth mass meeting in the interest of the Womans' Christian Temperance Union. Mrs. E. V. C. Williams, the State President, was at her best. She delivered her annual address in a masterly and eloquent manner. After the devotional exercises conducted by Miss Helen Usher, of Sumter, S. C., timely speeches were made by Mesdames Rogers and Kennedy, of Anderson, S. C., and Mrs. Bulwere, of Rockhill, S. C., on the Y. W. C. T. U., urging more young ladies to organize. Mrs. Duckett, of Columbia, spoke on "Loyal Temperance Legend Work. Miss Julia Watson, of Columbia, conveyed greetings from Mrs. Rosetta E. Lawson, National Organizer, in a very elquent and impressive way. The declaration of principles was read by Miss Mayne Perrin, of Abbeville. Miss Helen Usher, of Sumter, responded beautifully. Timely remarks were made by Mrs. L. A. Hawkins, of Columbia. Encouraging addresses were made by Drs. Shepard, Frierson, Moultrie, Watson and others. A large collection was lifted. Mrs. E. V. C. Williams was unanimously re-elected as president. To my mind, Sunday was the red-letter day, and well might be called the climax. At 9:30 a.m. Sunday all the Sunday schools of the city gathered in union services. Dr. J. E. Shepard presided with much dexterity, assisted by his most efficient co-workers, Messrs. C. C. Spaulding and W. G. Pearson, Factory and Salesroom 419 118 St. N. W. Phone Main 4474-Y Luke's P. E.

COMPANY, Near K Street Market. Soft mats Have no Equals HATS A.M., of Durham, N. C. The beauty of the service was that it opened and closed on time. Suitable music was rendered, which heped to enliven the occasion. After the close of the Sunday school the church service was entered into, a practical sermon was delivered by Dr. P. P. Watson, of Columbia, president of the State Convention. The afternoon session was held in the A. M. E. Church of Greenwood. It was opened promptly with song service conducted by Professor Pearson. Several brilliant addresses and papers marked the feature of the afternoon. Professor Uggams favored us with one of his soul-stirring vocal solos. On Sunday evening Dr. Shepard and Professor Pearson gave brilliant addresses. These two speakers held the audience spellbound for no little time. Dr. Shepard gave a wonderful account of his trip abroad. Thus the intellectual, spiritual, and social feast was ended, and the conventioners left the little city of "magnificent distances" with a determined effort to stand by the interdenominational work and its leaders and make South Carolina the leading light in the union. SOUTHWEST NOTES. Rev. W. A. Ray, of Metropolitan A. M. E. Zion Church, filled his pulpit Sunday, and large congregations greeted him. The Sacramental text was selected from I. Cor. xi, 26. Mrs. Jennie Shelton has returned from a short vacation at Asbury Park, and her health is much improved. Messrs. J. T. Newman and G. A. Turner are spending their annual outing at Atlantic City. Mrs. Josephine Murray is fast regaining her sight. Miss I. S. Contee leaves this week for a short visit to Baltimore. Mr. W. D. White, of Third street, has returned from a visit to his mother in Virginia. The reception given by the Royal Cabinet Club at Fishermans Hall, on Labor Day, was well attended. Instrumental music, solos, and quartettes engaged the company until nine o'clock, at which time Mr. Harris Marshall, assisted by the club, served refreshments. Dancing was indulged in until half-past eleven. Mr. John Simms is president of the "Royal Cabinet Club." Miss. Martha Marshall, of 812 G street northwest, is improving slowly.

C., Aug. 30, 1907. Miss Virginia Williams, Abbeville, S.C., was quite an attraction at the Interdenominational State Sunday School Convention. Her skill as an organist and pianist was unsurpassed. She is also blessed with an excellent voice, and her vocal selections were as inspiring as her instrumental renditions. She is destined to be one of the races greatest musical artists. She is the niece of Hom. W. C. Chase. Dr. S. L. Corrothers will deliver the second of a series of sermons at Galbraith. sunday m. frogs, September 8, at 11 o'clock a.m. In the evening at eight o'clock, "What Shall the Negro Do to Be Saved?" Last Sunday Galbrath Church was crowded both day and night. People were seen in the congregation from all parts of the city.

Hot Weather Is Period Most Trying Both for Invalid and Nurse— Cold Broth Sometimes Bet- ter Than Hot. a The chronic Invalid or convalescent is particularly an object of pity in mid- summer. The appetite Is less cap- tious In cold weather than fn hot, and unfortunately for the housewife is less inclined to put forth special effort at the very time when the invalid 1s most exacting. As the convalescence or comfort of the ailing member of the household depends so much upon the diet, the effort to supply food at once nourishing and appetizing must be sustained. Daintiness is extremely Im- portant in serving food for an Invalld, ‘Thin, undecorated china and glass- ware, a liberal use of the Inexpensive paper doyleys, and garnishings of fresh parsley, cress and slivers of lemon will help along the good work of tickling the jaded appetite, Bread, the staff of life, is always a problem in serving the invalid. When toast palls, try pulled bread for a change. This can be made in connec- tlon with your regular baking day, kept in a dry place and heated as needed. Pulled Bread.—Bake ordinary yeast bread in the shape of long, narrow French loaves. When cool, but not entirely cold, cut lengthwise through the center, then with two forks scoop or pull the bread out of the crust and, still using the two forks, pull it apart in strips six or seven inches long and an inch, or an inch and a half in width and thickness, Line a large baking pan with brown paper and arrange the strips of bread on this, rough and crinkled edges uppermost. Set in the oven with the door partly open until it dries out thoroughly, then close the }door until the bread turns a golden brown. Warm each time before serv- ing. This is much Ifke Zweiteck, but its odd shape appeals to the invalld. | If broths must be served as nour- ishment, try them ice cold Instead of hot. ‘The nutritive qualities are there just the same and, if properly sea- soned, iced broths are just as good for the patient as the hot ones, and in- finitely more tasty. Herewlth are recipes for chicken and clam broth, Serve elther in a dainty cup, topped off by 8 spoonful of whipped cream: Clam Broth.—Buy a dozen small clams {n the shell, arrange them fn 2 pan or tray and pour boiling water over them. As fast as they open turn clam and liquor into an enameled stew pan. Add 2s much water as you have olam Uquor. Stew gently for 10 min- tes and skim off the scum that rises.

Chicken Broth—Cut the fowl ‘Into quarters. Lay in salted water one hour. Remove and place in three quarts of water, bringing it very slowiy to a boil. Boil gently until Ilquor has di- minished one-third, Remove chicken. Season the liquor, bring to a boil and strain.:Stir a cupful of hot milk slow- ly into two beaten eggs, then add the mixture to the broth, stirring slowly. Half of this quantity is sufficient to serve an invalid two or three times a day. USE FOR OLD SHIRTWAISTS. Discarded Garments May Be Utilized in Many Ways. Discarded white shirtwalsts are not the useless articles they first appear. One with a pretty front may be cut out in neck and arms for a corset cover: A child’s guimpe or a lady's cheml- sette may also be cut from the por- tions of handsome waists, while turn- over collars are easily obtained from embroidered fronts. The edges are bound around with blas folds or nar- row brald. A plain shirtwaist forms a good foundation for a chemisette of sheer material, as it aids In holding that decidedly inclined to wander ar- ticle in place. The sleeves and neck are cut out, the armholes bound, and the chemisette stitched into position. If desired, the tail portion may be cut away just above the waist line, doing away with extra bulk at that point. A narrow hem will do as a finish, ———_ !

A charming wali paper displayed in & store window shows an arbor design of light purple shades upon a creant ground, says the Chicago Xews. Pur- ple tones are so fashionable now that they are, and very rightly, used con- siderably for furnishing. They are particularly clean+and pretty for a bedroom; that Is, if the violet or lay- ender shades are selected. For a sunny exposure violet gives a cool effect. Most women select blue or pink for thelr bedrooms, but if violet is becom- ing it {s every bit as effective, and If the solid tone ts not used the dainty floral designs in papering are not sutf- ficiently pronounced to confict ser!- ously with a dislike for the color.

DISH OF MEXICAN ORIGIN. “Chili Colorow" for Those Fond of Highly Seasoned Viands.

This is a Mexican concoction, called “Chili colorow.” ind those who care for such dainties will find it a most delectable miature. To make it, Mr. Leighton takes a quart of boiled tomatoes and ‘one onion that has already been chop- ped fine. To these he adds three ta- blespoonfuls of granulated sugar, one tablespoonful of the prepared ground Spanish pepper—a condiment that may be purchased at any first-class sBrocery store—and a little salt, The mixture fs then permitted to stew rath- er slowly for some 20 or 30 minutes, when, if it seems too dry, a little water is added.—The Bohemian. ig Feult Dumplinc, ‘Sift one pint of flour, one-half tea- spoonful of salt, and.two teaspoontuls of baking powder; rub in one heaping tablespoonful of butter and.mix into a stiff dough with three-fourths of a cupful of milk, Toss the dough onto a well-floured board, knead it slightly and roll out one-third of an Inch thick. Cut into rounds with a large cutter Put half of a pared peach in the cen- ter of each, draw the dough up over the peach and roll carefully in the hand until the folds have disappeared and it fs smooth and round like a ball. Butter the perforated pan in a steam: er, arrange the dumplings on It so that they will not touch, cover tightly and steam 20 minutes. Serve with fruit sauce. Rub one-fourth of a cup- ful of butter to a cream, add gradual- ly one cupful of powdered sugar and beat until Nght and frothy, then beat in gradually one cupful of sliced peaches, Set in a cool place till hard. eae the same as hard sauce. Grownine Grunna: ‘The majority of cooks who attempt to prepare escallops or other dishes that are supposed to be finished with a top layer of browned crumbs ugual- ly spread thie bread or cracker crumbs over the surface, finally dotting them with bits of butter. As the invariable result such a dish is always browned unevenly. The butter, spreading as it does in spots, browns nicely, but all around these spots are unbrowned spaces that give a most inartistic if not unfinished appearance to the dish. To avotd this it ts only necessary to roll the crumbs fine and .then mix them with the melted butter before spreading them over the space to be browned.*Those who have never prac- tlced this method cannot fail to be delighted with the improved appear- ance and flavor that may be imparted so easily to any preparation of this Kind. A ‘Gurumhen Blablae.” Use the smallest cucumbers you can procure, Make a brine of one pint of salt to a gallon of water, and let them remain two days in this. To one gal- lon of best cider vinegar add one cup of sugar, one tablespoonful of mus- tard seed, one teaspoonful of pepper corns, one of cloves, and a dozen blades of mace. Put the spices in bags, add them and the sugar to the vinegar, bring to a boil, and pour over the cu- cumbers. Repeat this four mornings; seal while.hot and drop a small piece of alum in jar. DoublesEnd Pillow Slips. When making pillow sllps, if both sides are left open instead of just the ‘one. there will be no hard corners to turn In washing, and they are easier to fron. Both sides can be trimmed with lace and insertion—two buttons and buttonholes on each side to but- ton the pillow In. They look so pret- ty on the bed pillow shams are not — Keen Food Het.

A Judge Indeed and in Fact.—A Humanitarian and a Christian.—His Some judges are made, while others are born. Judge Louis I. O'Neal was a born judge. He possessed a heart and a soul as pure as baptism. He died Tuhrsday afternoon at his country home, after a hard day's work in the court. His duties were trying, because the docket had been extremely large during the entire absence of Judge Kimball, and after court he would go to his office and take up his justice business. The announcement of his death was indeed a shock to the entire bar and community. Judge O'Neal was one of those men who understood human nature. In the Police Court, before whom hundreds of defendants were tried, he seldom if ever made a mistake. As justice of the peace he was on the side of right. He knew no favorites and sad indeed is the death of this distinguished jurist to those who knew him. He was popular with everybody, because everybody knew that he was fair and just. He was a Christian indeed and in fact, and showed it whenever he would sentence a defendant. He always looked for the innocence of a defendant, and not his guilt. But if the evidence established guilt he would temper his sentences with mercy. He was just the kind of man that that eminent jurist, Justice Stafford, mentioned, who should preside of the Police Court, and his contemporary was Judge Mills, who also believed in tempering justice with mercy. His place is hard to fill, because God made only one Judge ONeal. He had the confidence and respect of the bar because he was a man and a Christian. His funeral took place last Sunday afternoon from the First MethodistEpiscopal Church, Petworth. Rev. Charles Cole officiated, and he was buried in Glenwood Cemetery. Friday morning, August 30, Prosecuting Attorney James L. Pugh, Jr., announced to the court, Judge Alexander Mullowney presiding, the sudden death of Judge O'Neal, and introduced Attorney Campbell Carrington, who delivered a most feeling and eloquent eulogy, speaking of his excellent traits and undaunted liberality. Attorney Thomas L. Jones was the next speaker, who also paid a high tribute to the death and memory of this good and great man. Judge E. M. Hewlett, in speaking of him, said also that he was a man of infinite wisdom and sound judgment. Attorney A. W. Scott said that Judge O'Neal was a humanitarian, and on several occasions he had taken money out of his own pocket to pay the fines of those whom he had convicted. Such a man, said ...attorney Scott, was too good to be judge. He was no sycophant, but a man and a Christian gentleman. Attorney Sellers also paid Judge O'Neal a fitting tribute. Attorney J. A. Moss said that he would be missed. He was a friend to the rich and to the poor. He knew no man by the color of his skin. HOWARD UNIVERSITY SCHOOL OF MEDICINE 1867. Rev. Wilbur P. Thirkield, D.D.

Attorney Chase said death was certain and few of us are ever ready to meet it. Judge O'Neal possessed two great cardinal principles, justice and equity. But why should we weep? "Sorrow can never revive the dead, so we weep because we weep in vain." Attorney M. T. Clinkscales, in speaking of Justice O'Neal, said that the bar has lost a most valuable friend and the community a Christian benefactor. Mr. Leybring, financial clerk of the court, was the last to pay a tribute to the dead judge. He was earnest and eloquent. He knew him well, remarked the speaker, and he was a man loved and respected by everyone. No man was held in higher esteem by the bar, as is evidenced by the tribute paid him.
