of his utterances on the subject so

The following evening after the SER

was on his way to church, he was in
tercepted by a gang of rascals and
cruelty beaten. He was threatened
with death, it is said, if he continued
his meetings. With the prospect Of
such cutthroats skulBing about his

NO DISTURBING INCIDENTS TO
MAR PEOPLES PLEASURE.
ALL KINDS OF SPORTS TO AMUsE
THE PEOPLE THEY WERE
HAPPY AND ENJOYED THEM
SELVES-THEY FULLY APPRE-
GATED THE DAY DEDICATED
TO THEM.

Greenwood Park was filled with |
thousands of laborers, members of col
ored labor organizations, their fam
lilies and friends on Labor Day, Mon
day, September 2. Most fittingly was
the day spent by the colored toilers of
the city at this beautiful pleasure re-
sort. They went there to enjoy them
Selves as they felt free to do, and in
enjoying themselves they honored the
great national holiday. BY proclama-
tons of municipal, state and the fed
eral government specific day is dedl-
Gated each year to the Nations toll
ers for assembling together and en-
Toying themselves after the manner OF
their own choice Since the institu-
ton of this day sacred to toll, there is
no other national holiday so wholly
and universally appreciated and COM
memorated 1t appeals to the senti-
ment and appreciation OF the Nation
greatest productive force-its laborers
upon which it depends for its pros
perity and general welfare.
Aside from the sentimental feeling
which the occasion engenders, 1t also
shows the universal appreciation OF
the dignity of labor which is increas
ing and rising to higher plane veal
after year.
No class of American citizenship
was more susceptible to the lessons o.
patriotism, frugality and optimism
which the occasion suggested thai
were the colored laborers who spen
Monday at Greenwood. All day lonI
the people poured into the Park, whicl
had many features of amusements TO
their enjoyment There was a bi
game of baseball between the Nationa
Baptists and the Giants, which was Ell
loved by an immense number OF peC
ple; there was the skating rink wit
it's big throng of skaters and spect;
tors; the shooting gallery with its W
taries, and the merry-go-round with a
ways crushing crowds and riders. N
one could have a dull time with a
these things in motion.
The management of the Labor Da
entertainment at Greenwood should
congratulated on the manner in whiC
everything was conducted. There W;
not a single fuss, fight or other di
turbing incident to mar the peace al
pleasures of the occasion. At some

So the colored people of the commu

Since 1870 the British have at intervals vainly attempted to recover the trophy which, in 1887, was pre- septed to the New York Yacht Club by George l..

It was successfully defended by the Colum- bia in 1871, by the Madeline in 1876, by the Mischief in 1881, by the Puri- tan in 1885 and by the MayfOwer in 1886.

'hosf the postal convention
 led ins arlington in 1897, and
 vern the exchange of mails be-
 cen the United States and other )untries, except Mexico, Canada Ind Panama, with which this coun- try has separate conventions.
 The most notable change effected is in the reduction of letter pos-i tage to all countries included in the universal postal union. Former ly the rate was cents per half ounce, but under the new regula- tions, beginning today, is 5 cents for the first ouce and 8 cents for each aditional ounce.
 Another innovation is the intro- duction of reply coupon, which, when presented at a postoffice of any country that is a member of the postal union, will entitle the person presenting it to a postage stamp equivalent to the value of a scent United States stamp. The coupon itself will be sold for 6 cents, the additional one cent being charged for printing and recording. The arrangement was made so that per- Sons is this or other countries could write to correspondents in foreign lands, enclosing the value of stamp for reply Incidentally also, the coupon will enable persons to pay small accounts in foreign lands without going to the trouble of se- curing money orders.
 For instance, a resident of the United States may write to a cor respondent in Germany or Italy and desire to prepay the stamp requir- ed for an answer. Heretofore there has been no method of doing this, since American stamps are valueless in foreign lands. All he has to do now is to spend six cents for reply coupon at any American post office and enclose it in his letter The German or Italian addresses will exchange the coupon at his own - Pnsttteiffs4iaee- Pnstteifs4itaee 6Gr-a German or Italian stamp which will prepay his reply. Five Millions Df these coupons have been printed by the universal pos l., o+ Docpo ond ,3;cf,,;butoI nO,opu the various countries.
 The reply coupon which was pro- posed by Great Britain, is the nearest thing to universal postage stamp that has ever been adopted. For many years the plan has been opposed by certain countries, the reason being that in the introduce tion of universal postage what would be practically a universal currency would result. Another ob- lection is that because of the slight difference in the apparently equiv ,lent coins of the several countries, some places the stamp could be
 ~raaget slight reduction and
 large concerns using a large
 per of stamps would send to
 ,eN countries to buy them.
 Washington postal officials believe lat the adoption of the reply cou- pon involves a long step toward the universal postage stamp, and at the next meeting, which will be held in 1913, such a measure will be adopted.

The three previous challenges of Sir Thomas were transmitted through the Royal Ulster Yacht Club, and it is hoped that the baronet's new affil- iation will result in a change of luck The Royal Irish Club is ancient as we'll as royal, having been organized in 1731. Its headquarters are located at Kingston near Dublin, and it sails it's races in the Irish Sea.

Proposes TO Use Influence in Con-
EresS Toward Passage of
Appropriation Bill.

The Chamber Of Commerce has inau-
gurated a movement 10 urge upon Con-
gresS the passage of appropriate iegisia-
ton TO increase the pay Of government
clerks In Washington. The matter was
discussed at the recent meeting OF the
board of directors. and referred 10 tile
committee on law and legislation, wi.h
Instructions 70 act.
The matter was brought before the
board in the following resolution, pre-
sented by Mr.. A. Lisner:
Be il resolved. That the Chamber OF
Commerce use its best endeavors in CoI-
gress 70 have a bill passed at this ses-
sion granting an increase IN salaries 70
government employees.
In presenting the resolution Air. Lisner
said that. in his opinion. now was the
time 20 act upon the question, and the
quicker the matter should be presented
70 the committees OF the House and Sen
ate the quicker results would be OBJ
tanned
Mr. Lisner said the resolution was not
introduced 10 aid any particular interests,
but in the hope Of rewarding clerks for
faithful and efficient work done in the
government service. He thought il was
not necessary to waste time in preparing
the details of the plan. as the members
OF Congress are well acquainted with the
situation in the departments, know pre-
cisely what is wanted. and he believes
they will act if the public opinion Of
Washington makes itself felt through
the activity OF the Chamber of Commerce
