the All-Stars said today that the
All-Stars Is the best team living
and offered to bet 100000 that
they could beat the Cubs In a
series of five games.
Fans Less Confident.
The poor showing of the Ath-
letics in their games with the ALI
Stars has had its effect on the
Philadelphia fans and they are
not so confident that the worlds
championship will rest with the
American league team as they
were a week ago.
The batting weakness of the
Athletics is causing the fans the
greatest worry. Maek's men
have shown up woefully poor
against the All-Star pitchers and

TACOMA HIGH PROMISES
TO GIVE LINCOLN SOMETHING

When the Tacoma contingent
started for Seattle today to be on
hand to cheer the High school
team against Lincoln in their
gridiron battle, it looked as if the
whole town was moving out.
A big crowd went over and If
roofing counts Tacoma ought to
be able to make a showing.
Coach Perkins thinks Tacoma
has a good chance to win. Woods
will be out of the game for Lin
coin as he is not eligible. This
helps Tacoma. The Lincoln is 10
pounds heavier to the man than
Tacoma, but the little fellows
held them last year and they are

Washington, D. c.. Sept. 7-"The
smart Set" the race leading road
attraction of the season, is playing a
phenominally successful engagement
this week at the New Howard The
-atre. THE company embraces forty
talented people, and are presenting
a revised version Of Edwin Hanford's
musical comedy "His Honor, the
Barber" With S. H. Dudley as chief
tunImaker and music by James T.
Brymm, together with artistic stage
eHects by w. H. Lytell, the piece is
full Of snap and go, and is bound to
be one Of the best drawing cards Of
the year. Mr.. Dudley's effervescent
humor Is constantly on tap, and he
has never appeared TO better adYan-
tage than In his unique character OF
Raspberry Snow" whose chief am
bition in life is to shave the Presi-
dent. He has several splendid musi-
cal numbers and his comedy is Of
brand peculiarly his own. His in
terview with the donkey, Patrick"
continues to be a taking feature.
Assisting the star are three or
four "top-liners," who are entitled to
the rank Of "stars" likewise. Mrs.
Aida Overton Walker, the best dane
ing comediene on the stage, received
an ovation at every performance. She
has three strong numbers: "Golly,
Amt I Wicked;" a turn in child's
dress, pleasingly reminiscent Of
'Pickaninny Days." beautiful

in the second act; and picturesque

ductions are by that popular and ac-
comp plished song-writer, Ford Dab

to see that they were properly put
on and that the orchestration was
all that it should be. From the re-
peated encores at the hands Of the
delighted audiences, and the finished
interpretations Of the selections by

musical hits Of the show. Miss Ella

Columbia, 8. c., Sept. Especial
The ousting OF the Negro from the
Republican party in this State, the
Improvement of the personnel of the
party, a general observance of the
policies of President Taft toward the
Negro, and the election of a '"lily
white to the; State chairmanship are
several ofthe- issues that are exneet--
ed to be fought out when the Re-
publican State Convention meets in
Columbia on September 2 There
were sixteen out of twenty-four OF
the State committee present yester-
day. OF the sixteen members there
were but three white Republicans,
others being Negroes. John .Capers,
the national Republican committee
man from this State, was not pres
ent at the meeting to-day, as has
been his custom in the past. L. w.
y. Bialock, one Of the best known
Republicans in the State was in the
city, but did not attend the meeting.
The other white members. of the com
'mittee stated that they did not know
why Mr.. Blalock was not present.

ed concerning the meeting of the

There will be plenty of action at

bert, "and questions you have been
asking me now, you will find out
the answers to then. The meeting of
the committee today was very quiet,
there being nothing decided upon ex-
cept to hold the State Convention on
September 26." w.
Tolbert said that there would be
at least one hundred and thirty dele
gates to attend the Convention.
When asked If there would be con-
certed effort to displace the Negroes
and follow out the policies OF Presf-
dent Taft with reference to the Me-
gro, Tolbert said that he could not
answer, because all that he knew he
had read In the newspapers"
The leaders Of the Republican
party in this State are Of the opinion
that it is time for the Negro to go If
the party ever hopes to make any
headway. This opinion was freely
expressed by members yesterday.

During all this time. the world has
been unrecognlzed so far as the holy
Spirit is concerned. Indeed. the Apos-
tie after Pentecost went still further
and declared that 1.-The whole world
lieth In the Wicked One" The only
action of the holy Spirit must be, as
In the case OF Felix. to "reprove
the world Of sin and righteousness, and
of a coming judgment" Our text de-
clares. however, that the time Is com
ing when the world will receive a
share of the great Divine blessing,
which was fully assured by the death
Of Christ. But Its time Of favor will
be "dfter those days"-after this Cos
pei Age shall have come to an end;
after the New Dispensation. the Mil
lennial Age, shall have come. Let us
note first the blessings belonging to
this Gospel Age. I'm which we are spe-
cially interested, and subsequently let
