OUR DUTY.
AN OPEN LETTER FROM THE EDITOR

The charge has been made that
there is no unity of action among
the youhg men of this country and
for that reason every administration
that has come into power, through
the efforts and by the votes of the
Negroes in the North, has seen fit
to recoganize a class of men calling
themselves leaders, to the exclusion
of men who have a large cOnstitu-
ency behind them. These qui 81
leaders have betrayed the race and
exposed their ignorence to every
political party which place the
masses of the unfortunate race in
an embarrassing position.
OUR DUTY,
therefore, as American citizens, is
to establish a thorough Organiza.
tion in every State, city, county
and township and thus demonstrate
to the more fortunate of our fellow
citizens, that there can be unity
of action among the intelligent
masses of our people. The next
Republican Convention thaG is tC
take place shortly, In this city
should, and 1t must be controlled
by the young republicans of pro
gressive ideas. Allan rule oul
fellow citizens, corrupt methods
which are the causes of the right O
suffrage being denied US, mus
be eliminated from the body
polite.
Let us be up and doing and OIL
this charge let our mote be reform
and victory.
Yours for the cause,
The Editor

is BEAUTY A BLESSING?

Of the beautiful women l have
known, but few have attained Supe-
riOrity of any kind, says Anna
Katharine Green in Fhe Ladies'
Home Journal. So much IS expect
ed by the woman accustomed to
admiration, that she plays and palt-
ers with her fate TIL the crooked
stick is all that is left her. This we
see exemplifed again and again.
While the earnest, lofty, sweet
smiling woman of the pale hair
and doubtful line of nose, has, per-
haps, one true lover whose worth
she has time to recognize, an
acknowledged beauty will find her
self surrounded by a crowd of
snowy egOtists whose admiration so
dazes and bewilders her that she is
sometimes tempted to bestow her
self upon the most importune one
in order to end the unseemly
struggle.
Then the incentive to education.
and to the cultivation of ones spe-
clal powers is lacking. forgetting
that the trIumphs which have made
a holiday of youth must lessen with
the years, many fair one neglects
that training of the mind which
gives to her who is poor in all else,
an endless stOrehOuse of wealth
from which she can hope to pro-
duce treasurers for her own delec-
tatlon and that of those about her.
long after the ftful bloom upon her
handsome sisters cheek has faded
with the roses of departed summer.

THE CHURCH NOT RESPONSIBLE, nc.
To the editor of the BEE:
Will you give me space in your
valuable paper to give my views
in short on the question which Is
now the all absorbing topic of the
great Baptist family in the Dis
trict of Columbia, for as you know
this is purely local question, re
lating only to the colored portion
of the Baptis of this District.
We have here a ministers confer
ence which meets every Monday
morning at 10 a. IN. The churches
of the Baptist faith are not all
responsible for what is done IN a
ministers meeting as it is not a
delegated body, but at the same
time we of the Baptist churches
feel what 10 done by the Ministers
of our churches; that which REFLECTS
on the denomination, reflects on
us. One of the most important
questions which claims attention
from the laity of our churches,
is that how far can a body of dis
atisfed members of a Baptist
church 90, in going out-organiz
ing and having themselves recog-
niEfzedr dr as a regular Baprty yeh urch,
and when this question is 1tr!lli=
gently answered, then we mi
have something further to say
J.: regard to the action Of the mini
'r ters in reorganlzing their associi
n ton. We think they had d rlgl
l. to do so if it was for the best IL
II terest of those coneeraed.
, Speaking of Rev. w. IL. BrooE
~ d. d we do not believe that
e. wishes to do harm to any one
,e his brother ministers; but as
in educated divine in the dootri
j. and faith of his church, he wish
N to have the churches united,
VS. that we can have uniformity al
7e harmony of action with us as Bt
II lists; because as one wing of Go
~ y Army we have to fight again
s Satans kingdom.

A. Sentimental Journey.

But few people read Lawrence Sterne's
book nowadays, for we have craze for
the newest Of the new and book shelves
TEEN with French and G erman transla-
tions, erratic and religious novels, and
we haven't the time to devote to the Old
masters, as it were, And yet, "a Sen
timental Journey" is one of the later
classics and has in its time enjoyed wide
popularity. But people, with the ex-
ception of lovers and bridal couples, are
not taking sentimental journeys in this
practical age, and whenever thew enter
upon a jaunt they express a decided
prediction for fine equipment, con-
venient trains, quick runs and all other
modern improvements CT travel. And
they find no difficulty whatever in Sc
curing these ADVANTAGES when they
take the Duluth Short Line, as the
Saint Paul g. Duluth Railroad is pop
ularly termed, for it has them all, being
the Oldest and best route between the
Twin Cities and Duluth, West Superior
and other points, with close connec-
tons at fine terminals with roads rum
ming in all directions. Information

The summer dramatic season at the

this new departure and are giving it
their earnest support. For the coming
week the management announce SUI

famous play 1.-The Bankers Daughter .
This drama is considered to be among
the best plays that this popular author
has written and enjoys almost nation
al reputation. 1t was one Of the great
est of Union Square successes and was
among the best paying productions Of
its time. The play is strong and DOS
sesses ell-defined plot and brilliant
dialogue. Although some Of the scenes
are laid IN Europe the piece Is essen
TALLY American, as it treats of Ameri-
can characters. The play is most in
teresting one and furnishes moral that
cannot fail to be understood and one
that carries much moral weight. There
is no lack of interest in the piece; the
climaxes are all exciting, one in partic-
ular is the duel scene with much vivid
realism. Jacob Lifts entire company
will appear in the production. The
play will be well staged and the pre-
sentation will be a most me1itorious
one.
