THE 10TH ST. BAPTIST CHURCH
Gave Rev. Walter H. Brooks, D. D., a
Surprise on His Goth Anniversary.

On last Wednesday evening, August
40. a number OF members of the 10Th
Street Baptist Church met at the
church and from there jOurneyed to
the parsonage, 8o4 Twenty-second
Street DR.. Brooks was quite sur
prised to see so many OF his members.
The committee, OF which Sister Rosa
Taylor was chairman, had arranged
with the wife of Dr. Brooks TO receive
and seCrete the refreshments when
sent there. Dr. Brooks was told that
the cause Of this sudden invasion was
TO celebrate his Goth birthday. Mrs.
Emma Lewis was mistress OF ceremo-
nies She told DR.. Brooks of the
great love that lurked in the bosom
of his members for him, and that as
he had led the church so successfully
for over quarter of century, they
felt he should be given every consld-

another in Oklahoma, especially puts
US in a bad light before the people OF

There is but one final remedy Tor
such crimes in my opinion, and that
IS the enforcement OF the law every
where, regardless of race or color.
And | am glad to note that through
out the country, North and South,
that there is a growing sentiment as
expressed by the strongest daily
newspapers as against lynching. l
believe these recent burnings will go
far toward bringing public sentiment
to the point where such Outrages will
be fewer in the future than in the
past.
The better element of my own race
thoroughly condemn and deplOre
crimes committed by individuals, but
the punishment should be admins
tered by the court and not by the mob.
The best of our people as repre-
sented here at this session OF the Ma
tional Negro Business League are
urging that the lawless idlers among
as be controlled so that they may not
engender racial bitterness.

seem to be IN doubt as to the actual
age Of Dr.. Brooks, as the bays con
tanned from p cents TO S. so. Miss
Taylor made a neat address after pre-
senting Dr. Brooks with this goodly
sum. Dr. Brooks responded in his
usual happy way He thanked the
members for their consideration, and
stated his object was TO build up the
cause he represented by a whole
hearted service, and TO do the things
that were pleasing TO his Maker.
After this q large cake with sixty
lighted candles was placed on the
table. DR.. Brooks demonstrated that
his wind was good, for with one pun
he extinguished all the candles put
one. The committee saw to II that
ice cream and cake IN abundance
should be there. An enjoyable time
was spent around the festive BOARD

ATTORNEY KING.

Attorney I. Melendez King, one OF
the most prominent members of the
local bar in this city, and prominent
Elk, IN an interview with a Bee rep
Tesentat1ve Monday, said among
other things that he thought that
President Taft had made a most ex-
cellent President in that his efforts
have been to serve all the people, II
respective of party, color, or Condl-
ton. President Taft has done some
thing, remarked Attorney King,
which his record will show"
Relative TO the attacks made on the
President for not sending a special
message TO Congress condemning
lynching must be carefully consider
ed. 1t IS quite evident that the col
Ored Americans have no better friend
in the White House than President
| Taft Some agree that the United
States should invade State where
| lynching is perpetrated. 1t is we'll
known principle of Constitutional law
/ that the United States cannot invade
| a State in violation of the Constitu-
ton of the United States except to
protect the property of the United
/ States. Otherwise the State right doc
trine obtains.
No matter what the Presidents de-
sire may be. | feel confident, further
remarked Attorney King, that the col
ored Americans will not find better
| friend to them than President Taft.
, He has a good heart and a sympa-
thetic disposition. There is no rea-
son that he should be defeated for re-
nomination and election. So far as |
am concerned, and | believe that the
more intelligent colored voters of the
country will agree with me, that no
Republican, no matter how much he
may dislike a Negro, has ever, to my
knowledge, introduced a Jim Crow
car measure, either in Congress or any
| Legislature. Again, there has never
| been a disfranchisement measure in
troduced in any legislative body by a
white Republican. ] cannot see the
consistency of the colored advocates
| of the Democratic party. | cannot
see what they hope to gain. For my
/ self, | am for the denomination and
election of President Taft, and if such
| a man as Senator Crane or Secretary
/ Hilles is placed at the head of the
National Republican Committee, there
will not be enough of so-called Negro
Democrats left to relate good story

SUNDAY SCHOOL
WORKERS To

INTERESTING SCHEDULE is OUT
LINED FOR SUPERINTENDENT
LEAGUE-LECTUR TO BE
GIVEN EACH MONDAY EVENING
AT O'CLOCK.

The Sunday School Supcrinteudents
League, of which Mr.. w. S. Garfield
is the enthusiastic president, has I'M
dertaken a very practical scheme for
solving one Of their problems, namely
the Inauguration of a series of lee
lures upon Teacher Training" with
special reference to the boy in the
Sunday school, between the ages Of II
and Is.
The first of the series What Is
Teaching?" was presented last Monday
evening at the Y. NJ. c. A. to a select
group of boys teachers in the various
Sunday schools of the city, by Mr..
w. P. Cunningham, educational direc-
tor of the Y. NJ. c. A, whose long ex-
perience in religious education, espec-
tally with the Wisconsin Sunday
School Association, enabled him to
open the series with new viewpoint
to many Of those present
Five or more lectures will be given,
the subjects having been assigned to
men whose special training along
men whose special training makes
them experts along certain lines. They
are for every teacher of boys, between
IL and Is in the Sunday schools of the
city and pastors and superintendents
are expected to attend.
The course is simply a preparatory
step of the Sunday School Superin-
tendents League to meet the needs of
the day in Sunday school work in
Pensacola and doubtless this fall some
plan of a Central Training Institute
will be perfected which will enable
every school to have trained teach
ers.
The remaining lectures will be given
each Monday evening at o'clock. The
subjects and speakers follow:
