James ]. Jeffries Is quoted as say ing that if Bill Squires. the Austra- Han heavyweight, who is on his way here. can prove that he is not a lemon, he will take him on in a cham pionship mill. But Jefries once again positively declines to have any thing to do with Jack Johnson. who has just knocked out Peter Felix in jig time at Sydney. N. s. W. Jenrfes says that as long as he is champion he will draw the color fine. following the example set by John l.. Sullivan. But this argument will not carry much weight with the sporting fra teruity when Johnson returns here and makes another attempt to get a match with the boilermaker. Mean while It is said that Philadelphia Jack O'Brien has deliberately re- fused a match with Squires. saying that Jeffries is the man to tackle the Australian. 0'Brien possibly has an underground tip as to Squires's real ability and does not care to take chances with his precious reputation In view of all this. therefore. 1t looks very much co if Squfres would be asked to meet Tommy Burn e soon e he Isnds On the Pseiec slops, e

defiant attitude of life begins and
keeps up until the struggler is ex-
hausted. This is like a rat in a
trap who realizes that its supreme
effort will at last be failure
against the tremendous odds
against which it contends. Again
one may take an optimistic mood
and conceive of evil as unreal and
express being as hypothetical, that
only sood is real and non-good is
unreal, either or all of these atti-
tudes or moods are used by thinkers
and people who must bear respon-
sibilities and care, but new and
better way is open to solved our
problem. 1t is the way of law and
truth. To know the law of life
and the way of truth is to put our
selves in such relations to these
laws that the laws themselves at
once shields us and at the same
time afford us power and strength.
In this attitude we are taught to
accept whatever that comes to us
as having clear meaning for us,
a lesson to teach truth to unfold,
a power to give, and as being an
opportunity for our advancement.
With such valuable benefit to be
obtained we are determined at
once to welcome whatever comes,
knowing tnat it is means of self
improvement and strength and
that its purpose is to be means
of developing a stronger character
and unfolding a new power.
This then is great advance
over other attitudes but the way af
progress is improving at each adj
vance step we take. Our idea
should be the highest. If we wish
to attain tie heights of peace
which is the "Place of Power"
The greatest influence for the
largest good we must do more
than simply accept and try to use
our environment to the best ad-
vantage, we must come to fully
understand the principles of life
and by cooperation with them to
transmit our circumstances and
conditions into the highest ex-
pressions of humanity. This is
the summum bonum of thinking
and acting. By cooperation is
meant the method or Law of our
mental thought which determines
our feelings and actions and brings
them to coincide with our thoughts,
this alone will bring us to that
peace and place which is the law
full heritage of every soul.
These principles of life, of which
we speak, are unity, abundance
and goodness, based upou the fact
that God is omnipresent. When
our life accords with those at all

New Thought
The Practical Value of New Thought and How We May Accept
Reject the Events of Life, Etc

In these articles we have pro-
ceeded along logical and natural
lines, first saying to our readers
what New Thought is and is not.
Ap intelligent knowledge of sub
ject is the first requisite of its at
tainment. Second, we gave the
various schools of New Thought,
concluding with the fact that while
certain schools and teachers en-
phasize first one phaze and then
another in the body of New
ffhought-truth; yet all schools have
this one characteristic in common;
they begin at the same source and
end at the same conclusion, i. e.
"The Great Spirit is the All and
we are part of the whole" This
is the premise from which no New
Thought student will depart. 1t
is the unite of his thinking and is
the governing principle of his ac-
ton. Such basis is broad enough
for all people of sound thinking
and activity and high enough and
deep enough for all meditation and
effort, both for time and eternity.
Our third discussion dealt with
the avenues of approach to New
Thought experience or conscious
ness. Here many ways were dis
closed by which different persons
with different attitudes of mind
might approached and experience
the fullness and power of New
Thought truth. Fourth, we spoke
at some length of the polentiality
of New Thought, its power and its
value to the individual and to So
ciety, for if there be no value and
service to New Thought truths
then they are not worth the study;
but we aimed to show that their
power was unlimited, their service
infinite and its JOY the greatest
blessing that could come to man
or society:
We desire to discuss to-day, the
practical value of New Thought.
How may we accept or reject the
events of life, or what power shall
they exert over us.
There are several attitudes we
may take towards the inbarmonious
circumstances of daily life, first,
we may refuse or object to them,
that is worry and fret about them,
dislike and try to eject them from
over environment, or second, we
may take the attitude Of the fatal
ist, what is to be, will be-" this is
resignation, we assume the passive
and submissive spirit, which usual
ly means a negative condition,
letting things bear upon us in a
strickly stoical fashion, or we may
assume a positive and combatative
attitude and attempt to overcome
our environment by pure will power,

March 10Th aud was the guest of
Rev. James Washington and Mr..
and Mrs. P. Payne. Being the
Bishops first visit to Phoenix
Arizona, he was favorably impress
ed both with the people and their
surroundings.
Mrs. Jennie Erwin one of the
Stewerdess, served an elaborate
dinner in honor of the Bishop
SaturdayIat 4 p. m. Rev. Wash
inet put every effort forward and
there was nothing withheld to pre-
vent a decided success for the re-
ception and entertainment of the
honored guest.
The only thing that was hard to
decide-How can we show our hos
pitality in three small days when
we had planned to entertain the
Bishop three weeks.
The IL o'clock service Sunday
morning conducted by Bishop
Grant at Tanners chapel was a
very impressive and soul string
one.
The public reception in the
Hardwick theatre at 3 O'Clock was
well attended. Welcome addresses
were made by Rev. Mckinney and
VIM. Crump. Bishop Grant was
then introduced and his remarks
were mainly on the progress made
by the Negro since the Civil War.
The Bishop preached an able
sermon Sunday night to an appre-
ciative audience of both white and
colored.
Monday at noon Mrs. Payne en-
tertalned at dinner, Bishop Granl,
Rev Washington and wife. Also
monday from 3 to 5, a reception in
honor of the Bishop was given by
the Auxilaries of the church and
the social club. 1t was a seccess
and everyone left feeling well re-
paid for few hours spent in
social manner.
Monday night at the Hardwick
theatre, Bishop Grant lectured on

Both wit and eloquence were so
combined to make the thoughts SO

tactics of the Russians, during
both sides were fastening prepar-
ations for the conflict which was
recognized as inevitable, was forci-
bly, described.
The character elements of the
two people, which were the real in
huence on either side for victory
or defeat, were carefully scrutiniz,
ed. The Russian lack of national
pride-the popular discomfort with
existing conditions-the army
lukewarm in its loyalty and inef-
fective as fighting force, with a
population of I5O,O00,OOO to draw
upon were pictured on the one
side.
Against such odds came the lit
tie brown men of Nippon, whose
entire population is but 50,000,000,
but its fighting force thoroughly
organized and ready. Its people
homogeneous and loyal from the
Mikado to the humblest coolie and
anxious to sacrifice their all for
home and country.
Behind them, too, were a thous-
and years religion, racial integri-
ty, reverence of blood and the
highest moral culture.
Picking up but a short while
back the manners and customs,
methods of warfare as well as of
peaceful pursuit, the mind can
scarcely realize the evolution that
has been accomplished.
Facts, however are stern things
and the world knows to-day that
the baby foot Of Japan rests vic
toriously on the prostrate form of
the great bear of Russia.
The thought was suggested by
the lecturer that what Japan has
accomplished may be only an ini-
tiatitive of the larger and more
widespread aggressiveness of the
brown peoples of the orient.
India and China with their hun
dreds of millions, the former ruled,
albeit with some form of justice
but thoroughly dominated by
handful of Englishmen and the
latter in very great measure con-
trolled by the same influence, may
not always be content to walk in
leading strings but may rise in the
strength and majesty of numbers
and inexhaustible resources and
assume a more exhalted station in
the forward march of the nations.
The thought. then may be reas-
onably INDUCED, what of the Ne

for the District and otherwise ac-
lively prominent in all matters af-
fecting the public welfare, was the
speaker before the Bethel Literary
and Historical Association at its
last meeting.
Mrs. Mussey, it will be remem-
bered cast the one conspicuous
negative vote against the dismissal
of Prof Cardozo by the Board, at
the end of trial in which it is
held, no part of the charges was
proved.
The fact that Mrs. Mussey stood
up squa1ely for fair play is CRATE
fully appreciated by colored citi-
zens, while a failure to do so by
their own representatives on the
Board is equally condemned.
In this connection rumor has 1t,
that at the conclusion of the trial,
Mrs. Mussey YVES very generally
congratulated by colored specta-
tors aud among others Mrs. Arthur,
Gray cordially took her by the
hand and assured her of the CRATE
full appreciation with which color
ed citizens generally would view
her action. AT this juncture, it is
said that Mrs. Terrell, the colored
lady member of the board, hearing
this, interposed with the remark to
Mrs. Mussey, that this feeling
would probably last one month to
this Mrs. Gray is said to have re-
torted with much spirit at wont
last that long for you, for you're a
traitor to your race"
Mrs. Mussey was greeted by an
audience which almost completely
filled the auditorium of the great
Metropolitan church, while stu
dents from the Manual Training
and High schools under Prof. j.
T. Layton, Director of Music, by
their singing, added greatly to the
pleasure of the occasion.
Mrs. Musseys' address was of
the homely, unprepared but sin
cere and heartfelt variety, which
Immediately touch a chord in the
affections of the audience, through
responsive feeling of honest pur.
pose and kindly sympathy.
"The Home Life" was the theme
through which much practical
suggestion was made for a more
loyal and earnest devotion to the
home, each one of which may be
considered a recruiting station,
from which must come the future
citizens of the Republic.
Mrs. Mussey also made an APP
peal for the aid of the large audi
ence in behalf of the Manassas In
dustrial school for colored boys
and girls. This is a philanthopic
work in which her late husband,
Gen'l Mussey was deeply interest
ed.
The school is situated near the
battlefield of Bull Run and was
established few years ago by
Jennie Dean, former slave wo-
man. 1t is doing an inestilnable
work for the uplifting of the Ne
gro boys and girls of that section.
Mrs. Mussy was presented with
a bouquet of choice flowers on be-
half of committee of ladies',

Racial prejudices are so fragrant
and oftimes shown in so vulgar
and offensive a manner, that the
self respecting citizen rather pre-
fers to ignore them than humili-
ate himself by their notice. When
however they are so absurdly pre-.
sumptuous as to take the form of
petition, Haunted in the face of the
head of department of the Gov
ernment, it is incumbent upon ev-
cry one to sit up and take notice.
Such action has recently been TAX
en- by the white employees in the
office of the Superving Architect
of the Treasury, asking that a col
ored clerk or rather daughtsman,
who had met successfully the tests
of civil service aud was appointed
to this office at $500 per year, be
ousted. In evidence of the great
Indignation which is felt by the
Architects office, several OF the
employees have already resigned.
1t will be remembered, that Mr..
Cortelyou, not so long ago, when
Postmaster General, refused to
grant the request Of large num-
Der of white Railway Mail clerks,
that the white and colored clerks
be segregated. He has thus far
ignored this petition and it is not
probable that any notice whatever
will be given the matter by the
Department.
