speaker. The nation looks to the
happily 6nvironed, intelligent, we'll
paid and dignifed colored people OF
the capital for inspiration, example
and instruction. He thought the
burden of saving the young men Of
today in the cities, and the problem
of building a foundation for the bet
terment of the future generations,
would best be solved by such organi-
cations as the Young Mems Chris
tian Association; devoting them
selves to Christian teachings. In
connection with the spiritual force
drawn from the Bible, Dr. Washing
ton said that the material impulses
of life would be rightly directed. The
desire to lead a pure, sober and use-
ful life would come: the importance
of having a bank account, the respect
that the possession of property IN
spires, the value of making the most
of ones time and opportunities would
be the natural outgrowths of the fell
lowship and active participation in
the work of the Young Mems Chris
tian Association, if it would meet
the expectations of those who are
earnestly striving to make it what it
should be. The speaker dwelt upon
the evil of extravaganza. or lIvinG

beyonl ones means for the sake Of
superficial show, and warned the
young men of the degradation that
IS certain to follow indulgence in
strong drink-the destruction it
would bring to the mind, the body,
and the soul He expressed the pride
he felt in being a member of a race
that could in but a bare forty years
of freedom gather together such a
brilliant audience Of men, that could
prove itself capable of supporting
its own religious institutions, take its
place in the world Of business, and in
all respects live up to the highest
ideals of the civilization in which it
abides.
. DR.. Washington kept the house in
an uproar by his timely witticisms
and apt stories. The illustrations
were so applicable that the point was
often anticipated and laughed at by
his appreciative and sympathetic
hearers before the story could be
fully told. Never was a body Of men
in such a happy humor The speech
was voted "a great one" and the
cause Of the Washington Young
Mems Christian Association has been
pushed along beyond measure. The

was pleasing sight to behold.
Everybody seemed willing and anx-
ious to help on the good work.
According to statements made by
the management, the collections 20
date amount to about $4,000, leav-
ing $4,000 out of the $4,000 of sub
scriptions yet unpaid The hope is
given out that the $4,000 needed to
secure the remaining $4,000 of the
money donated by Mr.. Rockefeller
will soon be forthcoming from the
reliable subscribers who have simply
delayed payment,
Attention was called to MrH.W.
Chase, a hard working colored man
who contributed $500 in cash to-
ward the movement and promises
$500 more when the membership
shall have reached 1000.

Mooreland, International secretary.
and Mr. L. E. Johnson, local secrc-
tary, was the signal for prolonged
and hearty applause. After music
by the Lyric Orchestra, made up of
students of Howard University, and
congregational singing, led by Pro
fessor John T. Layton, Mr.. John
son felicitouSly introduced Commis-
sioner MacFarland as the presiding
officer of the day.
Mr.. NIacFarland's address was
pitched in a lofty key. He was proud
to see such a representative audience
turn out and exhibit such an enthu-
siaStic interest in movement thai
is fundamental in the development of
good citizenship; he had never be-
fore seen such an audience assem-
bled anywhere for the purpose Of
advancing the Young Mems Chri-
tian Association work among the
colored people, and he regarded the
evidences of civic righteousness dis
played here as a fitting answer to
the reaCtionaries who so often SLAM
der the Negro race. In his opinion,
a race should be Judged by its besc
specimens, not by its worst, He re
ferred in a most complimentary man
ner to the fact that the colored peo-
pie had promptly subscribed $4,000
for the new Young Mems Christian
Association building when Mr. 7. D.
Rockefeller agreed to give $4,000 II
they would raise a like sum. Mr.
MacFarland thought the colored peo-
pie should rally to help this agency
of moral uplift, not only for their
own benefit, but as an example to
the whole country, for what is done
in Washington is essentially national
in affect and influence.
Mr.. E. J. Morton, president Of the

DR.. Washington was introduced by
Mr.. MacFarland as the foremost
Negro on the American Continent" "
The welcome the Wizard" received
was cordial in the extreme and 1t
was several minutes before order
could be restored
DR.. Washington never made a
better speech on any occasion in his
long experience in public life. The
serious phase of his address dealt
with the responsibility that rests up
on the good people of this commu-
nifty to save the vicious that they
themselves may not be pulled down.

some donation to the National Reli-

DR.. James E. Shepard,
Durham, North Caronia.
Dear Sir:
l congratulate you upon the fact
that your thought about a Bible
Training School for our Christian
workers, as made known to me while
we were in Asia, is being crystallized
into definite shape, and I apprehend
great and lasting good will accrue to
the race through such an institution.
Kindly acknowledge receipt of
$3.50 for your enterprise, and oblige,
Yours very truly,
r. B. McRary.
The Durham Morning Herald, in
its issue of Saturday, May 8, has
the following to say about it.
GETS GOOD CHECK
DR.. Shepard Receives Nice Dona-
ton from Colored Man
DR.. James E. Shepard yesterday
received from Professor R, B. Nc
Rary, of Lexington, North Carolina,
a check for $3.50 which is to be ap-
piled to the new Training School
that is to be built for the colored
peope.
Professor AIcRary is a substantial
citizen of Lexington, living now on
the property owned by people who
formerly owned his family. He has
been made agent for their real es-
tate, and is one of the most tactfuI
and shrewd of citizens. He is a gift
ed orator and made the emancipation
address here last year
This gift of Professor McRary
which is the largest gift made by a
colored person, shows the big-heart-
edness of this Negro phiIanthropist,
and is a worthy example for others.

Another treat is in store for the pub
lie this week at the Breed theater, as
Manager McNulty has happily secured
the great feature picture Boots and
Saddles" a magnificent revival of the
war days, with an absorbing story,
carefully selected characters and
minute details. This splendid picture
is by the same firm that made the
famous Stirring Days in Old Vir-
ginia,' the picture that helped to hake
the establishment of Breed theater as
a permanent home of high class motion
pictures possible. This picture has
been released from the manufacturers
a very short time. and as a cOnse-
quence is very new to the public and is
remarkably free from the hackneyed
action that is so prominent in most
big moving pictures. This film is one
of rare interest and even now, at this
early stage. is in great demand and
the manager had great difficulty in Sc
curing it.
A very timely picture is also on the
bill under the title of The Suf-
fragette's Dream, which is highly
amusing. being high class comedy

THE GRocER's DREAM.


Last evening / was talking
with a grocer aged and gray.
Who told me of a dream he had.
l think twas Christmas day.
While snoozlng in his office.
The vision came to view,
For he saw an angel enter.
Dressed in garments white and new.
Said the angel, I'm from Heaven,
The Lord Just sent me down,
To bring you up TO glory.
And put on your golden crown.
you've been a friend to everyone.
- And worked hard night and day.
GU We supported many thousands
ana from Few received your pay.
$50 we want you up in glory,
FOR you have labored hard.
And the good Lord is preparing
Your eternal, just reward"
Then the angel and the grocer
But When P d2Ea dose s 10 lad. at
The angel murmured "WaitP
II have a place TO show wa.
It's the hottest place IN he'll!
where the ones who never paid YOU
In torment always dwelln'
And. behold. the grocer saw there
His old customers by the score,
And grabbing up a chair and fan.
He wished for nothing more;
But he was bound to sit and watch
them
, A AS q, they'd sizzleii SINCE and burn.
Whichever way they'd turn.
said the angel, Come on. grocer.
There's the pearly gates to Sec"
But the grocer only muttered
This is heaven enough for me"
