of the accident yesterday he said that
his intention was to turn into the

store, but after he had turned to the
west he noticed that he was enter
ing the alleyway back of his ware
house, and having his mind on other
things could not think fast enough to
avert the accident which followed.
However, he considers that after all
the accident, if it had to come, was a
fortunate one.

SEEKS FUTURE FOR NEGROES.
Race Problems to Be Solved at a st.
Louis Meeting.

There are no aspirants for unattaln-
able ideals in the movement now un-
der way for a meeting of the National
Negro Educational congress to be held
in St Louis, August 25 to 81. The
meeting is to be a gathering of prom
inent negro educators who, backed by
the moral support of the most prOmin-
ent white men in the country, propose
to devise some plan for lettering the
condition of the negro race.
And the plan, whatever it may be
finally, will not be something visionary.
1t simply will be a way by which the
negro shall be taught to make good"
The idea for such a meeting first
was brought out in a resolution passed
at the meeting of the Missouri State
negro Teachers association in st.
Louis last December. Since then Pro-
fessor ]. Silas Harris, principal of the
summer school of Kansas City, Kas.,
and George T. Wassom, also of this
city, have been working to bring about
the meeting.
Their efforts have met with success
and the big national meeting is as
sured. Governors of all the states in
the Union in which there are large
numbers of negroes have appointed
negro educators of their state as dele
gates to the meeting. President Taft
also has taken an interest in the move
ment and has delegated a number of
prominent negroes to attend the meet
ing.
1t is in the active work of these
negro educators, backed by the sup
port of the president and the governors
that the hope of the movement lies.
At the ST Louis meeting governors of
two northern states and two southern
states will deliver addresses.
Something must be done for the
negro" Professor Harris said yester-
day. To-day the race in the United
States is worse off than it was imme
diately after the civil war. and they are
growing worse. The negro is here to
stay; he cannot go away. Everyone
realizes this, and if everyone helps in
this movement we can make the negro
a useful, worthy citizen"
This black man must be taught to do
something with his hands," Mr.. WATSON
declared and one idea in this move
ment is to find some way of develop
ing manual education among the
negroes so that all of them will be able
to go out into the world and do some
thing useful. The system of negro
education today is wrong. The negro
child graduating from school does not
have the same opportunity as the
white child graduate. We know that,
so does everyone else. This meeting Is
to find out where the trouble lies and
to- find a remedy for it."-Kansas City

PECULIAR CAVORT|NGS
OF AN AUTOMOBILE
The independent Telephone Company
Received a Hard Blow.

Yesterday morning when j. T. Le-
Sueur, driving his Cadillac car, start
ed to turn into the alleyway between
his place of business and the Mesa
opera house, he misjudged the distance
and ran into a telephone pole belonging
to the Independent company. The
spring on the right hand side of the
car struck a little to the left OF the
center of the pole and plowed its way
entirely through the nine inches of CO.
dar wood and extended on the opposite
side. Carl LeSueur, a young son of
the owner of the car, was thrown from
his seat at the side of his father and
hurled entirely through the wind shield.
from which he suffered a few minor
cuts by coming in contact with the
glass. but otherwise was uninjured.
So firmly had the steel become
wedged in the wood that it required
the efforts of ten men to pull the car
backward until il was free of the grip
of the pole
The strange part of the accident Is
that the car as soon as it was free was
driven to the Mesa garage, where an
examination resulted in the discovery
that no damage had been sustained
other than the bending of the lamp
support and the breaking of the glass
in the wind shield. Just why the
spring was not broken and the occu
pants of the car more seriously in
jured is one of those unexplained
happenings.
Mr.. LeSueur has been driving his
car but a short time. His sons, who
became quite proficient as drivers,
were suddenly shorn of their ability
as far as the city is concerned by the
passage of the ordinance prohibiting
all persons under the age of IS from
driving automobiles. Mr.. LeSueur has
only been driving his car since the
