RACE PROGRESSING
SAYS FRANKLIN
BRAY IN SPEECH
INTERESTING ADDRESS
AT THE ELKS' THEATER
Declares He Is Becoming Land
Owner and IIIiteracy Disap-
pears; the Emancipation
Celebration.

That the negro population of Louisi-
ana and Mississippi owns more farms
according to the United States census,
thar do the white men of those states
was the interesting statement made
last night at the Elks' theater by Rev.
Franklin Bray, during an address
which closed the exercises by the col
ored people in celebration of Emapci-
patton day. Rev. Dr.. Bray is q speaker
of no mean ability and a colored man
of considerable education. He is pres
ident of the negro business mems lea
que of Colorado n has been promin-
ent in the work Of advancing the inter-
ests of the negro in that state. DR..
Bray takes an optimistic view of the
condition of his race in this country
and believes that he is becoming a val
liable economical factor. and a useful
citizen. His talk last night was on the
subject THE Advancement of "A Race
and he supported his theme with an
array of statistics chiefly gathered
from the last federal census. He de-
clared the negro. who has increased
in numbers in America, over two mill
lion in twenty years. has proven that
he is not decreasing as Il race; argued
that the negro is progressing intellec-
tually and the percentage of Hitter
acy is dropping rapidly; that the ne
gro upports over 5000 church or
CARNATIONS and has a large church
membership and property inc that he
is accumulative, as shown by the.
much larger numbers of ncgro land
owners in the south and Yer the
whole country. DR.. Bray believes that
the negro at this time is having al at
tack of genuine land fever and that
the disposition of the members of the
race to acquire property is one of the
good signs of progress in self main
tcnance and civic usefulness. Rev. DR.
Bray's speech was a strong presenta-
ton of the best features of the pro-
cresS of the race intellectually moral
" and financially and was listened to
with close attention although the audi
cnce was not large.

When their labors were completed,
the officials reported unanimously to
Mr.. Taft in favor of the White, and,
accordingly, car of this make was inn
mediately ordered from the manufac-
turers, The White Company of Cleve-
land
The new car was delivered to Mr..
Taft in Washington few days before
his Inauguration and since that time it
has been in almost constant use. There
has not been day when the president
or some members of his family have
not been seen riding around the nation
al capital in the new car. 1t is hinted
that Mr.. Taft likes fast travelling and
that when he rides out into the open
country, he does not always insist that
the speed of the car be kept within the
legal limits.
C. A. Hawkins, manager of the Pa
cific coast branch of The White Com
pany, 1470 Market street, San Fran
cisco, said recently to correspondent
of this paper: "We are receiving
many inquiries each day asking for full
details regarding the construction of
Mr.. Taft's car and in reply we are
sending copies of our catalog. Mr..
Taft's car is exactly like any other

When the announcement was made
several months ago that Mr.. Taft would
use an automobile during his term as
president, much rivalry developed
among the leading manufacturers for
the honor Of selling him car and the
public watched with interest to see
what Mr.. Taft's choice would be. The
knowing ones predicted that the White
Steamer would be selected and they
pointed out that President Roosevelt
had used White Steamers for two years
at his summer home at Oyster Bay and
had recommended this make to Mr..
Taft as the most desirable.
This prediction proved correct, al
though Mr.. Taft did not rely solely on
Mr.. Roosevelt's recommendation but,
with his usual thoroughness, determin.
ed to have an investigation made of all
the principal makes. Accordingly, he
asked several officers of the War de-
partment to look into the matter for
him and they tested many makes of
cars, visited a number of factories so
that they might see what materials
were used and, finally, they investigat-
ed the records Of the different types of
cars in public contests and in private
Ssrvies.

MAN1cuRED HOTEL WATERS.

Latest Innovation in the Service Of

Manicured hotel servants will be pre-

pressed for three or four months with
the general untidiness of walters, bell
boys and other employees exclusive of
the clerical staff and yesterday the fol-
lowing pronunciamento was issued:
Beginning on this date every EN-
ploye Of the Wolcott who comes In
contact with the guests Of the hotel
will report daily to Miss Cora NJ. Par
ker, the official manicure, to have his
or her finger nails clipped, cleaned,
polished and filed.
'This order Is mandatory and no ex-
cuse will be accepted for disobedience
except illness or other excuse which
the management shall deem to be rea-
sonable.
"a room has been provided for the
manicure near the walters dressing
room, and she will be on duty from
$3.50 a. m. until p. m.
mo charge will be made for the
service, which tends to promote cleanli-
ness and which will appeal to the

RAILROAD SAFETY DEVICE.

Subway Travellers Security.

The "Death button" Adds to the
Subway Travellers Security.
Safety in railroad travel Is a vitally
interesting topic, and an article In the
Circle, entitled, Making Railroad
Travel Safer" gives some remarkable
illustrations Of the many inventions
and automatic appliances which tend
to guard tile public from danger. One
of these is called the death button
making provision as it. does in case OF
the sudden death or inactivity Of the
one in charge at the moment on lines
where electric current has been In.

In use In the Manhattan subway trains,

Before he can get any current at all
this button must be pushed down by

which he car move the handle about

But should he drop dead at his post

er except that his car has the United
States coat of arms painted on either
door. In other words, when we make
car for the president of the United
States there is no way in which we can
make 1t any better than the car which
you, or anybody else, can purchase
from us.
"Some of those writing to me about
Mr.. Taft's car say that although they
are very desrious Of having car like
Mr.. Taft's, they are afraid that such Q
car is somewhat larger and more ex-
pensive than they desire. In reply to
these letters point out that our Model
'O' 20 horsepower car is exactly like
our 40 horsepower model, except as re-
CARDS the size of the different parts.
The principle of construction is exactly
the same and the smaller car possesses
all the desirable qualities of our larger
model. In other words, l point out
that they can secure an exact duplicate
of Mr. Taft's car for 81, 900, or a car
of the same qualities but of smaller di-
mensions for only $4,000. Judging by
the demand for White cars, a god pro-
portion of those desiring to purchase
automobiles are quite content to trust
President Taft's judgment as to ths
best and most desirable make"
