The overall atmosphere appears to be one of a public event or gathering, possibly related to a festival or community activity. VOL. XL. NO. 21 The GREATEVANGELIST Given a Reception—His Many Virtues Extolled—Five Hundred People Seated at His Table—Beautiful Decorations—His Appointment as World Evangelist Celebrated—Many Ministers Present—Mrs. Willbanks Given a Royal Salute. Rev. Alexander Willbanks, known as the world evangelist, was given an enthusiastic reception last Friday evening in the main auditorium of his church, Tenth and R streets northwest, in honor of his appointment by the National Baptist Convention as the world evangelist and his homecoming. The church was beautifully decorated with flags and bunting, while the pulpit was occupied with palms and cut flowers. In either aisle of the church were seen at each post young ladies dressed in white with red, white and blue sashés. In the lecture room below was a table set in T-shape, handsomely decorated with flowers, set to receive the evangelist and his guests at the conclusion of the ceremony. The reception was in charge of the committee on arrangements, consist- 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10. 11. 12. 13. 14. 15. 16. 17. 18. 19. 20. 21. 22. 23. 24. 25. 26. 27. 28. 29. 30. 31. 32. 33. 34. 35. 36. 37. 38. 39. 40. 41. 42. 43. 44. 45. 46. 47. 48. 49. 50. 51. 52. 53. 54. 55. 56. 57. 58. 59. 60. 61. 62. 63. 64. 65. 66. 67. 68. 69. 70. 71. 72. 73. 74. 75. 76. 77. 78. 79. 80. 81. 82. 83. 84. 85. 86. 87. 88. 89. 90. 91. 92. 93. 94. 95. 96. 97. 98. 99. 100. REV. ALEXANDER WILLEBANKS THE WORLD'S GREATEST ing of James Ellis and James Wall. The reception committee consisted of Mrs. Sophie Johnson, assisted by Miss Mamie Payne. The floral committee was headed by Mrs. Ella Walls. At 8 o'clock Rev. L. F. Nichols, the master of ceremonies, called the as- ssembly to order and introduced Rev. G. L. Davis, who offered prayer. Among the most notable addresses delivered was the address of Attorney P. W. Frisby of the local bar and the recitation of Miss Shelly Covington and one of Dunbar's poems by Miss Snyder of Chicago. Addresses were also delivered by Editor J. F. Wilson, Editor W. Calvin Chase, Lawyer P. Frisby, Miss Bessie Davis; C. J.

Willbanks was introduced and responded to the many complimentary things said in his behalf. Just before the introduction the pastor of Trinity Baptist Church presented him a $75 black cape, which was made by Mrs. Willbanks. When the cape was put over his shoulders he walked forward, resembling Ajax defying the sea. Man ycompliments were paid Mrs. Willbanks for her loyalty and devotion to her distinguished husband. At the conclusion of the exercises the company was invited to the lecture-room below, where a large table was set in T-shape, and over 500 people were fed, and they all were satisfied.

Zion Baptist Church, N. E.; Friendship Baptist Church, S. W., and Linden, Md., last Saturday night, which shows the activity of this great preacher, and last Sunday more than 500 people were turned away. People came from Burrille. Saturday night he was serenaded in the day by the Jenkins' Band, and he wore the evangelical cape which was presented to him one behalf of Mrs. Willbanks by Rev. Lee Davis, pastor of Trinity Baptist Church. Mt. Jiegel Baptist Church of Alex-andria, Va., was represented by Deacon John Wilson, who delivered a fine address. He brought the greetings of that church. He said that he had known Rev. Willbanks for twenty-five years, while he was pastor of his church. Big Meeting Held by Dr. Willbanks at Charleston, S. C. At Charleston, S. C., Dr. Willbanks was met at the station by two brass bands and a parade two miles long through the heart of the city. He delivered 15 sermons and 848 souls were brought to Christ. He stood out in the river on Sunday in a rowboat and preached the baptism sermon to ten thousand people, who lined the river for half a mile. All Charleston was stirred as never before. He delivered his farewell address under the great railroad shed at the depot, and 3,000 came to bid him good-bye. A floral arch was formed over his head and six bottles of cologne were broken on him while speaking. At Indianapolis, Ind., a large tent was erected, where he conducted another great meeting. So great was the crowd that the superintendent of the street car company ordered all cars to stop at the tabernacle, and the cars had signs on back and front reading "This car to the Black Billy Sunday Tabernacle." At the close of the meeting Dr. Willbanks baptized the converts in the presence of 15,000 people. Two great meetings were held in Pittsburgh, Pa. Three thousand people walked nine miles during a streetcar strike each evening, sometimes through the rain, and packed the Rodman Street Baptist Church to hear the evangelist. Hundreds were converted. MERIT IN NEGRO PLAY AT ALBAUGH'S THEATRE Show Written. Produced and Acted by Colored People—Abounds in Keen Humor—Songs Are Original and Are Rendered by Singers with Excellent Voices. (Baltimore Evening Sun, Sept. 30.) "A troupe of Negro artists staging a musical comedy and playing to their own people is no novelty to the theatrical world. But there is playing at Albaugh's Theatre a musical comedy written, staged, produced and acted by colored actors and actresses, who display unusual talent. The troupe, known as the Smarter Set Company, is offering a two-act musical comedy entitled "The Children of the Sun," which is clever, unusually well composed with bright lines and which brings out much of the rich humor, characteristics of the Negro and at the same time has a reflection of racial pride. And with this unusual company, which seems to be making a struggle to lift the Negro into a place in the higher theatrical sun, is Salem Tutt Whitney, a formidable rival of Bert Williams, who might well be pleasing an exclusively white audience of Broadway with a big variety hit. He has all the assets and with it the intelligence of just, the kind of a darky comedian who always gets a laugh no matter how simple the line. With J. Homer Tutt, also a clever actor of the smarter type, he wrote the musical comedy being presented, and in it he displayed a bit of genius. Appeal to Both Blacks and Whites. "The Children of the Sun" is undoubtedly intended to make both whites and blacks laugh and think. The producers might be accused of putting out racial propaganda, for it is based upon a book written by a well-known Negro archaeologist, who traveled and studied extensively to further his theory of tracing black, yellow and Oriental races back to the ancient Ethiopian race, classifying them all as "Children of the Sun." Therefore, while such a plot, even though it is hung together lightly with song, dance and travesty, is not offensive to the white race, it may not please the proud East Indian rajah, a Japanese diplomat or statesman, a Persian philosopher, an Egyptian prince or an Abyssinian king. It, nevertheless, would have a tendency to boost racial pride among the Negroes, and allay any desire on their part to change their color. The first scene brings out plantation songs along the banks of the old Swanee River, with Dixie wite and suggestions of the rich, old Virginia background. Songs Unusually Good. There are some unusually good songs, and the chorus girls and men have well-trained voices. In fact, Ed Tolliver, Carrie King and Virginia Wheeler have cultivated voices and sing without trace of the dialect. "Travelin', We've Travelin'," "Dear Old Dixie Home," "Come and Dance with Me" and "Something About You I Like" are all songs that have few borrowed strains in them and are purely racial inspirations. The dances were good. A section of the house was given over to white people, and there were several there. The Smarter Set will be the attraction at the Howard, week starting Sunday night, October 10, with matinee daily. JURY REFUSES TO CONVICT KEV. MARTIN. Jackson, Tenn., October 17—Rev. J. C. Martin, book agent of the C. M. E. Church, and one of the foremost citizens of this city, is just from Memphis, where he has been on trial in Judge Young's court, an- swering charges brought against him by Rev. M. W. Wilson. The jury, after listening to the evidence, refused to grant judgment against Rev. Martin. Rev. Wilson made a vigorous fight to convict Rev. Martin. He had three of the ablest lawyers in Memphis, two white and one colored, while Rev. Martin was defended by Lawyer Booth, a prominent colored lawyer. By reason of the prominence of the parties involved the case had gained wide circulation, and the failure of the jury to convict Rev. Martin is considered a sweeping victory. Rev. Martin is well known throughout the country and stands high in church circles. 11TH TRIENNIAL SESSION OF SCOTTISH RITE MASONS The eleventh triennial session of the United Supreme Council of the thirty-third degree of the Ancient and Accepted Scottish Rite of Freemasonry for the Southern Jurisdiction of the United States of America held divine services at Mount Zion M. E. Church, Twenty-ninth street and Dumbarton avenue northwest on last Sunday at 8 p. m. All branches of the Craft of Masonry of the city of Washington turned out in honor of the Supreme Council. The service was attended by a very large congregation. Many prominent Masons from all parts of the United States were present. Among them were Rev. S. M. Strayhorne, Grand Master of Tennessee; John G. Lewis, Grand Master of Louisiana; Dr. John Payne Turner, Grand Master of the District of Columbia; Joseph P. Evans, Grand Master of Maryland; and Senator Charles L. McNary from the State of Oregon. Rev. Dr. D. DeWitt Turpeau, $32^{\circ}$, preached a very fine sermon. Rev. J. N. Beaman, $33^{\circ}$, was the Grand Prior of the occasion. After the sermon, Hon. Charles L. McNary from the State of Oregon was introduced and made a few remarks, complimenting the choir, soloists and the sermon. Among the things he said to the Masons were: "You are my brethren. I am a thirty-second degree Mason. You are moving along the line. It is the greatest medium that will elevate your people." CARD OF THANKS. Mrs. Catherine Nall wishes to sincerely thank the employees of the Naval Gun Factory and the many friends for the kind expressions of sympathy at the death of her husband. CHAUTAUQUA CONCERT COMPANY COMMENDED Tuesday night, October 21, the Archie Harrod Chautauqua Concert Company gave an excellent concert at Mt. Ziion M. E. Church. Rev. Turpeau and those present highly commended Mr. Harrod and Company and expressed their desire to have them return at an early date. Personnel: Myme Terry, soprano; Minerva, Cofer, soprano; Elicina Hankins, soprano; Mattie Gantt, alto; Jennie Willis, alto; Stellena Harrod, alto; Mr. Cole, tenor; John Payne, basso; Leon Thompson; basso; Archie Harrod, reader. 4 ARE ANY OF THESE IN YOUR NEIGHBORHOOD? ., DO YOU DEAL WITH ANY OF THESE DRUG STORES?

The Bee also wants to know why one man should charge $400 for traveling and other expenses and another over $1,000, and a refusal to pay the Metropolitan Baptist Church only $50 for an entire week, day and night, for the use of the church building, and an appropriation of only $5 for janitor service. An explanation is respectfully requested, at once. These are only a few of the extravagant figures that The Bee has published prior to the forthcoming report of this Race Congress. Much has been said of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, but investigation will show that this is the only organization in the interest of colored people that is doing any good for their advancement. The hypocrisy of ministerial leadership will be exposed if a correct account is not given of the people's money. Another item of $400 was presented by an individual, of which $200 has been paid, or promised to be, as a compromise. The Bee is published in the interest of the people and not to defend or cover up unlawful acts. The Bee believes that the Executive Secretary, Prof. John R. Hawkins, will give an honest report, no matter who will be effected.

A representative of The Bee recently called at the office of the new subdivision Longview, located at the car stop of Sixty-first street on the H street car line extended. Mr. Weeks, the owner, recently acquired twenty-two acres of as high and as conveniently located property as could be found in any direction from the city. For frequency of car service it is not surpassed by any suburban line. The streets are all ninety feet wide, one street in particular being highly improved. The office, located at Sixty-first and Dix streets northeast, has a very attractive exterior, with the interior of oak and other appropriate finish. The owner expressed much satisfaction in being able to say that all the buyers of home sites in Longview had appeared to be cultured and refined people. Among other efforts looking for the betterment of the colored race, the development of well-located suburban tracts in the hands of careful, honorable and fair-minded men is to be encouraged. In Longview certain dedications of land for parking and extra streets were made (though not required), that all posterity might be benefited. We believe this subdivision to be worthy of careful investigation by our best people: ROOSEVELT MEMORIAL. Big Meeting Planned for Monday Night, October 27th. The Roosevelt Memorial Association has launched a campaign to raise a minimum of $10,000,000 with which to provide memorials in keeping with the plans of the national committee. This campaign will be conducted during the week of October 20-27, 1919, and it is desired to make this a distinctly popular movement. The local district branch will hold Z. Church, corner Fourteenth and a meeting at John Wesley A. M. E. Corcoran streets northwest, on Monday night, October 27, 1919, at which time we hope to make a good report. It is hoped that every friend, and admirer will enlist in this non-partisan movement. It has been well said "a memorial to Theodore Roosevelt will be an inspiration to future generations of Americans by reason of the high ideals of citizenship it will perpetuate." Invitation is extended to everybody to be present. All who wish to help in this movement may send subscription to Mr. J. R. Hawkins, who has been asked to act as Secretary-Treasurer, 1541 Fourteenth street, northwest, Washington, D.C., who will acknowledge and send certificate for the same.

These artistic decorations make Poro College rank among the handsomest institutions in America. Gives Race Employment. While Poro College gives employment to over 250 women of the race, both young and old, yet the Malones have been unselfish with their finances in having this wonderful painting placed on the wall that it might be an inspiration, encouragement and joy to the many employees and the public. Prior to the unveiling of the painting, a program was given in the auditorium at 2:30 p. m. Prof. F. L. Williams, principal of Sumner High School, presented Bishop H. B. Parks, presiding bishop of the Missouri conference, who acted as master of ceremonies. The large audience arose and sang "America," Gerald G. Tyler, director. A tenor solo was rendered with pleasing effect by Robert Moman. Cary B. Lewis, Chicago Defender, Chicago, Ill., brought greetings from Poro agents of the Windy City. Miss Ruth Minor, one of the Poro girls, sang beautifully "By the Old Cathedral Door." "The Battle Hymn of the Republic" was sung by the audience. The oration of the afternoon was delivered by the Rev. W. H. Peck, pastor of St. James A. M. E. Church. He said in part, "The Poro building is one great garden of beauty and refinement. No attempt at the spectacular is made, while richness is everywhere apparent. Yet this is more than surpassed by the subdued color effect which testifies of great refinement. The first panel typifies the race's beginning, as is shown by the scant clothing, incomplete physical development, the crude spear and the selfish burden, and is well called the Genesis. But his interest increases; they become humanitarian, agricultural and mechanical. Hence this is the Exodus. So much has been accomplished through application and sacrifice that a large panel must be used to typify the height to which the race has climbed, and the three heroic figures of Negro womanhood personify Liberty, Music and Art, in which the race has made its most wonderful progress." Handsome Painting Unveiled. The audience arose and marched to the lobby, where Rev. Reverdy D. Ransome, New York City, editor of the A. M. E. Church Review, delivered an able and brilliant, address, following which the Misses Rowena Slaughter, Mary Hardy and Artesia Charleston, Poro girls, drew back the curtain, and the audience viewed the wonderful painting with awe and admiration. and try to imagine that you are compelled to find your way through life in darkness, that you are barred forever from seeing daylight.

There are two other varieties from which the leaves are taken and which are of equal value with the barosma crenata. The leaves are the parts which are termed offiinal. The natives gather these leaves and powder them. "The powder," says a traveler, "they have named 'Booko,' and they use it for anointing their bodies." They also distill the leaves and obtain from them a spirituous liquor somewhat resembling pale brandy, which they not only use for convivial purposes, but also for the cure of various diseases, particularly those located in the stomach, kidneys, blad- All the objectionable features of the ordinary raincoat are eliminated from this practical new garment.

A decoction of the leaves is systematically applied by them with great success to wounds and skin disorders. Burning bush.—These plants grow in many sections of the United States, in woods, in thickets, and in river bottoms, flowering from June to July. The bark of the root has a bitter and unpleasant taste in its natural shape and yields its qualities to water and alcohol. It is tonic, alterative, laxative, diuretic and expectorant. It is serviceable in dyspepsia, torpid liver, constipation, dropsy and pulmonary diseases. In intermittents it also serves a good purpose. Butter weed.—This is an indigenous, annual herb, with a highly bristled stem from 6 to 9 inches high. The leaves are lanceolate, flowers are small, white and very numerous. Butter weed is found everywhere in the Northern and also in the Middle States; it grows in fields and meadows, by roadsides and flowers from June to September. It should be gathered when in bloom and carefully dried. It is useful in gravel, diabetes, dropsy and many other kidney diseases. The volatile oil may be used instead of the infusion.

The leaves are ovate and smooth, flowers white and odorless and become yellow and redolent; calyx, five cleft; carolla, funnel shaped; stemmens, five. The fruit is a small white berry. This plant is a native of the West Indies, Florida and South America. The root has a coffeelike taste, is of a reddish brown color and has a disagreeable odor. It affords the cahincic acid its most important medicinal agent. In medium doses it aids the urinary discharge, increases the action of the heart and promotes perspiration. It has been found efficient in amenorrhoea, rheumatism, syphilis, etc. It is used in Brazil as an antidote for snake bite. (To be continued.) REV. H. T. DENT. Rev. H. T. Dent, of Mt. Tabor M. P.

WHY SURPRISE? By J. C. Cunningham. In a recent editorial on the riots (police strike) in Boston, Mass., and the general riots in Chicago, Knoxville, Tenn., to say nothing of the City of Magnificent Distances, the Evening Star, of this city, seems to be greatly surprised or alarmed over the part that the "white boys" played in these lawless games. And, knowing that lawlessness holds sway and "Judge Lynch" is the whole thing in this day of freedom and democracy, why should the up-to-date, highly informed Evening Star be surprised at the little white boys of the United States of America taking an active part in lawless riots? Is the Star unmindful of the fact that schools in the South have been closed in order that those little tender minds might be given lessons on lynching and burning colored men, women and children? And does the Star expect these little white boys (future Presidents of this country) the day of harvest is near at hand; lessons well? Does not the Star expect people to reap what they sow? The damnable seeds of hatred, of discrimination, of lynching and burning human souls have been sown into the hearts of the American white children in the school houses, in the pulpits, at their mothers' knees, and to be so stupid as not to learn their and the Star needn't wonder at the abundant crop which is to be gathered therefrom. When we remember that Jehovah hath said, "Whatsoever a man soweth that shall he also reap," and when we further remember that this same King of Kings hath said to the unjustly persecuted races, "If you will trust in Me, I will be a pillar of cloud by day and a pillar of fire by night and will lead you to the land of promise." The Evening Star may expect to be surprised at some terrible things that are yet to come! And the Star would do a world of good to use its powerful influence in training the white boys to foresake the ways of their fathers and seek to be law abiding. ROOSEVELT'S LAST SPEECH. Monument to the Great Statesman. New York, September 23.—Col. Theodore Roosevelt's last public speech was made before colored war workers at Carnegie Hall on Saturday, November 9, 1918. This speech had not been scheduled, and it was not until early in the afternoon that he was appealed to, the committee not knowing until then that he was in the city. The colonel had motored to this city from his home at Oyster Bay in order to see his physicians. He went to the Hotel Langdon, where he always stopped. The physicians visited him, and it was his intention to motor back late in the afternoon. The colored war workers, who had city and had established canteens .Howard Theatre. Andrew J.

Those in charge learned that the colonel was in the city and hurried to the hotel. When they went to his room, they explained the situation and requested him to make a speech. "Certainly I will, and be glad to. Your organization has been doing great work," he replied. The colonel then called up his home, saying that he would not be home for dinner, and the committee left greatly pleased. Few realized that day the great pain which the colonel suffered. A friend, who was with him and rode with him in his machine to Carnegie Hall, noticed it and spoke to him about it. "Yes; it is very painful, but I guess that it will go away in a few days," he replied.

He paid a great tribute to the nurses and workers, saying that they had done excellent work among the colored soldiers. On the platform was a boy who had been decorated for bravery by the French Government. When the colonel spied the colored youth he paused and paid him a great compliment. At the conclusion of his speech, Col. Roosevelt had to be helped from the stage and down the stairs. His right ankle was swollen, and he said that every time he placed his foot to the ground pain shot through his leg. The colonel was assisted into the machine.

President Lewis Successful-Campaign Drawing to a Close-The People's Enthusiasm-Big Meeting Monday Night. The meeting of the stockholders at the Y. M. C. A. on Monday night was opened with prayer by Mr. Sylvester Walker, after which Mr. John W. Lewis was introduced. He began his remarks by thanking the people for their loyal support and solicited their aid to make the future meetings as successful as the past ones have been. A number of young people have been attending these meetings, and Mr. Lewis expressed his delight in getting them interested, for, as he says, the destiny of the future race lies in their hands. The older people are simply laying the foundation for the younger generation to build upon, and it behooves us all to give them a good start in life. He spoke of how, in the District of Columbia alone, 42,000 colored people were supporting fraternal organizations and have millions of dollars in the bank. For what? To help the sick and bury the dead. That is a very praiseworthy object, but what about the living? We must encourage our children to be bankers, real estate brokers, etc., and to do this we must give them their start. There are in the District of Columbia 125,000 colored people, with an aggregate payroll of $1,000,000 a day. In the white banks here the colored people have deposited over $11,000,000 and only about half a million in the colored bank, and it took six years to get that. How much good that $11,000,000 would do our own people! We might be able to have two or three banks. That is what the colored people must learn to do—organize and consolidate our funds as well as our talk. During the past three weeks over 58,000 subscriptions have been taken, and over. $7,000 has been collected. Last night, as on previous nights, the clerks were kept busy writing pledges and collecting money, and we are sure to go "over the top" on November 3. A meeting will be held at the Y. M. C. A. next Monday night, which will be the last meeting before the final reports are made. Everyone is urged to be present and bring their friends. DQING A REAL BUSINESS Houses, Lots, Farms, Churches, Shops, Stores, Etc., for Sale on Easy Terms by Clarence M. DeVeile, 1014 W Street Northwest. If you really want to borrow some money, or buy a house, go at once and see Clarence M. DeVeile, as it it said that he is selling more houses than any other agent of his race, and get possession of the house he sells you quicker than any other person in Washington. He is the only agent who will lend you money to buy a home and allow you to pay him in small sums, with the privilege of making larger payments if you desire to do so at any time. If you know of any property to be sold at public auction and you haven't enough money to comply with terms, he will attend the sale and buy the property in for you, and give you time to pay him back. He is well experienced in all real estate lines and will render any assistance desired to help you get a home. Mr. DeVeile is not only after the dollar, but has his clients' interest at heart, and he is, without a doubt, a great credit and honor to his race. He has a book of about five hundred houses to sell in all sections of Washington and vicinity, which you can examine upon calling at his office and select the one you want, and if you haven't much money, he will lend you some, prices from $2,000 to $30,000. He is reliable and honest, and is licensed to do this business by the honorable Commissioners of the District of Columbia. Out of the nearly thousand houses Mr. DeVeile has for sale, there is one now vacant and ready for occupancy—six rooms, brick, hot and cold water and bath, gas, latrobes and range, hall upstairs and down, making all rooms private; on corner of wide alley, large front and back yard and cellar, in a good neighborhood. Call at once at the office of Clarence M. DeVeile, 1014 W street northwest; phone first North 1644. His office is open from 9:15 a. m. until 7:30 p. m. Mr. DeVeile also has a very large automobile, with a careful and reliable chauffeur, and will carry you free to see any house you desire to purchase from him. This is the same Mr. DeVeile who gave free rent to all poor persons during the severe winter about two years ago, according to Mr. Charles Taylor, of Deanwood, D. C. "I have watched his progress with interest and find that his wonderful the fact that he is not only a church member but a true Christian, in every success as a business man is due to sense of the word, is superintendent of the Sunday School of Simpson Memorial Church and holds other high offices in the church; and he feels it his duty to render service and to give liberally to God and His cause." Mr. Clarence M. DeVeile, Esq., wishes to announce that he will gladly carry any and all persons in his automobile, free, to their respective churches every communion Sunday in the year, regardless of denomination, if they are aged and infirm, provided he is notified fortyeight hours before the time for communion. His office is 1014 W street northwest, phone North 1644. See him at once. LIEUT. THOMAS INJURED. Arm Broken by Fall—Set by Dr. A. M. Curtis. Lieut.

Parker has recently added this table to his office. It is something entirely new and wonderful in construction. Its "universal joint" conforms with the principles of anatomy and physiology of the spinal joints, and is remarkably adapted to manipulative treatment of the human spine. When it is remembered that the spine is the "backbone" of the body, and contains the spinal cord, which gives off nerves to every organ, tissue and muscle, it will readily be understood that health and strength depend largely on the condition of the spine. Crooked or stiff spine cause various kinds of diseases, weakness, and premature old age. Osteopathic treatment cures these troubles by correcting the spine. Women who are suffering from female troubles will do well to consult Dr. Parker, as he makes a specialty of those cases. DR. T. THEO.
