MRS. LOU NJ. CHURCHILL,

Many persons have headache
after any little excitement or ex-
ertiOn. They cannot attend
church, lectures, entertainments,
or ride on trains without suffer-
ing. Those who suffer in this
way should try DR.. Miles Anti
Pain Pills. They give almost
instant relief without leaving
any d~isagreeable after-effects, as
they do not derange the stomach
or bowels; just a pleasurable
sense of relief follows their use.

FIRST UNIVERSAL
RACE CONGRESS
Important Event TO Occur In
London In July, 1911.
4 GREAT OPEN PARLIAMENT.
BY N. BARNETT DoDsoN.

Perhaps the greatest event Of the
twentieth century, so far as the colored
races are concerned, will be the first
universal race congress, which will
meet at the University of London, Lon
don, England, July 1920, 1911.
The president of the congress is the
Right Hon. Lord Weardale, the chair
man Of the general committee is Pro-
fessor Felix Adler Of New York and
the general secretary Gustav Spiller of
London, who has been visiting the
United States.
As Mr.. Spiller said, "The object of
the congress is to discuss in the light
Of modern knowledge and the modern
conscience the general relations sub
sisting between the peoples of the west
and those Of the east, between so called
white and so called colored peoples,
with view to encouraging between
them fuller understanding, the most
friendly feelings and a heartier CO.
operation"
Judging from the reactionary tone in
America, one would expect that such
congress would receive scant well
come In the world, but this is not so.
The congress has received hearty sup
port from hundreds of influential men.
Among those who are backing the prof.
ect are many members Of the perma-
nent court Of arbitration, majority Of
the delegates to the second Hague con-
ference, twelve British governors, eight
The Twin City star. [volume] (Minneapolis, Minn.) 1910-19??, 1910-11-25

British premiers, more than forty CO.
lonial bishops, some 100 professors of
international law, many well known
anthropolOgists and sociologists and q
majority Of the council Of the inter.
parliamentary union.
In this congress each race will be
asked to speak for itself and to spea9
frankly. and the speeches will be is
sued In a bound volume before the
congress cOnvenes.
The first speaker will be an East In!
dian, the next two will be German and
French scientists and the fourth the
general secretary, Mr.. Spiller. who will
speak on the problem Of race equality.
The next session will be taken up I'm dis
cussiOns Of the general conditions Of
progress, and there will be heard such
scientists as Sergi and Deniker on con-
ditions Of racial progress
These sessions will be continued
Thursday morning with papers from
China Japan. Turkey. Persia. India.
Egypt and Haiti. Then there will
come series Of papers on the peace
full contact between civilizations and
on problems Of interracial economics.
The American Negro, however. will
be mostly interested In the sessions
OF Friday, when the vital question Of
the modern conscience In relation to
racial questions will come up. Israel
Zangwill will speak for the Jews. Sir
Charles Dixie will speak for forced la
Dor, Dir. Blyden will speak on West
Africa, DR.. Dubois on the Negro In
America. DR.. Eastman on the Amer
lean Indian and Mr.. Jabavo on the
South African native.
Two secretaries for America have
been appointed-the Rev. Frederick ].
Lynch and DIR. w. Il. B. Dubois. DR..
Dubois Is specially concerned with
arousing interest among colored people.
He plans to organize a select COM
mlttee Of leading colored people. who
are going to be asked to attend the
congress in person. OF course all 9th
ers who wish may attend. but It Is
particularly desired that the attend
ance shall be representative.
Interesting articles on the races con-
gress have appeared In the Review Of
Reviews. New York Independent and
the New York Evening Post. The
Ethical World says: "For every day
purposes we may conveniently divide
mankind into the white. black and yell
low families. All history tells the sad
tale Of their wars and jealousies. and
later history also tells the tale Of
dawning sense of oneness.

slaughter.
After being out for an hour and a
half, the jury in the case of jain
Jones, negro, on trial for the killing
of Roy Jeffries, also negro, S. Hol-
den street, on the night of Sept. Is
in pool room at 725 Washington
avenue south, returned verdict of
guilty of manslaughter in the first
degree. 49,
The crime was committed during a
quarrel. Jeffries, his brother and an.
other man entered the pool room and
were using profane language, not no
ticing the presence of a woman who
had accompanied Jones into the place.
Jones took umbrage at the remarks
and fight resulted, during which
Jones stabbed his adversary in the
groin. Jeffries died shortly afterward
at the City hospital from loss of
blood.
The punishment for manslaughter
in the first degree is from five to 20
years in the state penitentiary. Sem
tence will be pronounced by Judge
Holt, before whom the case was tried,
within day or two.
Taking into consideration the des-
perate character of the defendant, the
weapon used, the fact that nearly all
the witnesses testified that he had his
weapon ready for use and threatened
to use it, before the affray; the fact
of his subsequent flight, and resist.
ance to the officers, and their testi-
mony against him, Jones has the right
to be thankful for the able and earnest
efforts put forth by his counsel to save
his neck, as he was indicted for MUIR
der in the first degree, and the Court
charged for murder in the first and
second degrees, and for manslaughter
in both degrees, and acquittal.

Many of the most important and in
tricate assignments fall to the hands
of the assistants, and in the course OF
their work they are frequently brought
into contact with senators, members
Of congress and barristers of promi-
nence who have business with the de-
partment Of justice.
1t will thus be seen that the pro-
posed appointment is one Of the utmost
responsibility and far out of the ordi-
nary run Of positions usually accorded
to our race. 1t is expected that the
name of Mr. Lewis will be sent to the
senate shortly after the opening of
the congressional session in December
The president is being warmly con-
graduated upon all sides by the color
ed press and public for his generosity
in giving the race such honorable rec
ignition, and there is no doubt that
his hold upon the respect and conf
dence of the rank and file of the col
ored people Of the country has been
greatly strengthened.
The competency of Mr.. Lewis is con-
ceded by the most eminent lights at
the American bar. Polished in man.
ner, eloquent of voice and chaste in
language, he has few peers as a plead
er, and in the preparation of cases his
is a master hand. He possesses charac-
ter and force of the most positive or
der. with magnetic poise and dignity,
vel is modest and unassuming In his
daily intercourse.
Mr.. Lewis combines the elements
that make for efficiency of the lasting
kind and in the wider field promised
him will add new laurels to his brow.
1t is expected that his nomination will
be speedily confirmed by the senate.
Mr.. Lewis is at present superintend-
ent of the naturalization bureau in
Boston, having been promoted from
the post of second assistant United
States district attorney upon the resig-
nation of John Casey, Esq. In both
offices he made an enviable record.
He was appointed assistant district
attorney by ex-President Roosevelt in
1903, and some of the most difficult
cases known to the department have
been ably disposed of by him. In
one significant instance he received
the thanks of Chief j. e. Wilkie of
the United States secret service for
superior skill in conducting a case
especial Importance In which this
hch of the government was deeply
crested. ...........
Mr.. Lewis is a native of Berkeley,
Va, where he was born in 1868. His
father was minister Of prominence,
but not of large salary, and young
Lewis was compelled to look out for
himself in the matter Of securing an
education such as he desired. He
worked his way as a waiter to earn
his college expenses after finishing
the common school branches in and
about Portsmouth, Va.
