DOES THIS MEAN WAR?
An Attempt to he Made to Arouse
COlored Men.

New YORK, Aug. 12.-The Woman's
Loyal legion, an Afro-American asso.
citation having as its aim the education
and betterment Of the women of the col
ored race, held its first meeting tonight
in the A. M. e. church in Sullivan
street. Speakers outlined the educa-
tional campaign which will at once be
started by the formation in every Afro
American community in the East of
chapters of the legion. Mrs. Victoria
Matthews, president of the legion. said
that. while it had been organized for
three years, it had beeu working quietly
until now, when the time had arrived to
come to the front. She said the most
horrible indignities were heaped on
the negro. and he had himself TO
blame for it, as he was too tame. lie
needed stirring up. and when he
awakened TO the false position the white
race had placed him in, he would rise in
his might and quickly bring his white
brethren to their senses. The rights of
an American citizen were too sacred TO
be violated without protest. Mrs.
Josephine Ruffin, editress of the Wo-
mans Era. published in Boston, fol-
lowed Mrs. Matthews. She refuted the
idea that loose morality prevailed
among colored women.

BROOKLYN, Aug 12.-Thomas Holt.
jantor of the Church of the Atonement
at Fifth avenue and Seventeenth street,
shot his wife three times tonight at
their home in Brooklyn. and then cut
her throat with a razor. She died
soon afterwards. For the past two
weeks Holt has been acting strangely.
A few Gays ago he called upon Police
Capt. Murphy and told that official that
his wife was trying to poison him. Capt.
Murphy, who knew Holt and his family,
laughed at him, which seemed to enrage
Holt. Since then he affected a new
craze, spending his time in watching
for burglars. who, he declared,
were planning to rob him.
This morning he left the house earls to
attend to some matters at the church.
Soon after his return he appeared to be
III very Respondent mood. Shortly
after O'Clock tonight, after he had fin
ished his work at the church, he went
he had been shot in the head.
Then. without any further remark,
he drew a revolver and fired at her.
The bullet entered her right side, and
he fired again. striking her on the left
side. The woman rushed from the
room, Holt following her into the hall,
way, where he shot her for the bird
time, in the breast. He then cut her
throat with razor. No reason for the
dead is known beyond the suppo sition
that Holt is insane.

The War Forms q Theme for
Sermon.
Apropos of the war between China
and Japan, Rev. William WikinSGh
last night, in st. Andrews church,
preached a sermon in which he spoke
on Life in China" 1t was an interest
ing sermon, and replete with instruct
i've material. The press, he said, IS a
means of wonderful instruction, and
the war of China and Japan Will do
mOte to advance the interests of those
two countries than all the teachers in
that ancient land could in century of
toll. The ASlatlcS are people whose
past records, present condition and fut-
ure prospects deserve the wise study Of
everyman who calls himself Christian,
statesmen, scholar or Intelligent citizen
of any nation. The Chinese had name
in history. and schools of thought which
commanded the attention of the greatest
men in Europe-and do even TO this
day-lOng before the Christian era
dawned upon the world in all its benefi-
cent spIendor- In continuing his Ser
mon. Rev. Wilkinson said:
"Our profoundeSt scholars think the
Arabs. who, as we know, were the
chemists, the astronomers and time re-
corders of the Old World. To most
readers much is los by the changes of
name. Cathay was the name China
used to be known by. Today it is prob
able China has 400,000.000 people.

pie, large number of whom live
pretty much as men lived when job

Abraham fed his flockS between kadesh

the man who knows how to reach and
see it, The Chinese are not without a
religion. COafuciuS did as much, if not
more, to create a love OF worship
amongst the Chinese as any man has
ever done in the midst of any people.
This man has been dead tWenty-fOur
centuries, yet he lives. and is a mighty
power in China. and ancestral worship
as taught by him tlOuriSheS to this day.
The near future will show that old
customs, superStitions, exclusive spirit
and sef-OpiniOn Will break down before
the wItchery OF the new life OF this new
age. China has no railway except one
for military purposes. All this Will
soon be changed. China has relied
upon its vast numbers to keep its place
and power. Lord Give, in India, long
since showed how little vast numbers
can do against highly trained soldiers.
The Japanese, whatever the result of
this war, will prove to China how much
better for council or fights is the Euro
pean plan, which they have learned so
much of. than the spirit of the past, as
embodied in Chinese ways. The church
may learn what work 1t yet has to do
before the cross casts out the errors of
pagan and heather lands"

Eustis is fair sample of the material
which makes Up the paper:
"Whatever may be said Of Eustis as a
theoretical mayor, it cannot be denied
that, practically considered, he has
made mayoralty failure as tall as the
Washington monument. In some Ie-
spects, however, he has been brilliantly,
picturesquely successful. AS the phan-
tom bridegroom of the gentle Minnie.
as the heroic and eXuberant exemplifi-
cation of Don QuiXote in municipal ad.
ministration, and as the self-satisfied
dupe OF his own theories he is clearly
entitled to pedestal more conspicuous
than his fellows"
