An amusing article on THE Ele-
gance of Man" appears in a German
newspaper 1t complains that men no
longer trouble about their dress. They
are content to be clothed and they
don't care a bit whether they look
elegant" or not. But the most pitt
full object of all according to this criti-
cal sheet is the man who, not know
ing the rules of the game tries to
dress we'll. The worst offender. says
the critic, is the Partisan with his mar
row cut trousers, his pointed shoes.
and his flowing crayat and coat that
is cut too close to the figure. He is
all that a man should not be. with his
little cylindrical hat set on the side
of his head to crown his badly cut
clothes.
The article states that the best dres-
sed men are to be found in New York.
The men in Vienna are accused of be-
ing too conservative, too fond of dreary
colors. In Brussels you may occasion
ally meet a we'll dressed man whereas
in Holland there are no elegant"
men. And the Germans do not look

though not always followed by those
who wish to appear smartly dressed.
You must never wear false cuffs or
shirt fronts, or tie that is made up
Your tie must moreover completely
cover the stud of your collar. Brown
boots must never be worn with town
clothes, and never be fastened with
buttons. That is the objectionable
sin. Goloshes are anathema, SO are
boots with rubber heels and rubber
tops.
Sticks and umbrellas with orna-
mented handles must never be car
ried; they should be as simple as
possible. And SO should watch chains
and tie pins, and we must be very
careful about the size Of our cigar
and cigarette cases. Many tailor
has been driven to despair by the
carelessness of his client in carrying
unwieldy things in his pockets. II we
follow all these rules we may succeed

such sensation that the manage

It Is one of the few films that have
caused staid Richmond audiences to
cheer. The helpless girl Is rescued

AS [ said before, this business
and professional structure rests up
on a solid foundation of labor. AS
phalt paving gangs and railway
construction, gangs send into Chica-
go to their families $2,25O,OOO per
year. The stock yards concerns get
blank receipts for over 100000 an
nually. Railways out Of Chicago
send to the State street merchants
a half million In hard-earned wag-
es via Negro employees. The Illinois
Trust Company boasted Of having
900 Negro depositors, with some
accounts over thirty years old, ag-
gregating 100000. To my definite
knowledge the Jennings Trust COM
pany holds savings for 270 Me-
groeS..
With such an Industrial showing
and paying taxes On $2.SO0,000
worth of property, owning 100000
worth of stock in close corporations
of their own, it is really no surprise
that the Negro is more in evidence
in public service in Chicago than
elsewhere in this country.
To those fearing that staff and
line officers in the National Guard
might be a social Embarrassment,
let me point to the Eighth Illinois
and it's armory, the knights of Py-
thias, and their 100000 quarters,
and the grandest Negro business
and social club in America, except
ing only one. I refer to the Apo
mattox, on Wabash avenue, where
only Negroes hold forth. Yet were
you to enter, from the appointments
and service you would hardly have
thought such to be the case. The
Elks, beneficial order, have club
with membership of 1000.
1t is, then no wonder that Chi
cago's coIored citizens keep a men,
ber in the legislature, have one Of
five county commissioners, an as
sistant states attorney, and are
now trying for a member on the
school board and a judge. These
added to their fire company Of
proved efficiency, police sergeant,
detectives, and three score police
men, meat inspectors, postal clerks,
carriers, bailiffs, deputy sheriffs,
messengers, etc, give to the Chiea-
go Negro the best showing of any
American city because they have
earned it,. A. j., in New York

Many writer's have advanced the
ories and reasons for so-called race
question conditions. The subject
mas been studied in every section
or America with but little success.
Tor the very reason that humanity
Is not subject to rules, but responds
only to the primal laws of nature.
The Negro, being after all human
DelnS, has simply absorbed such
knowledge as has been offered him
In the different communities in
which he happened to have his be-
ing. For this reason Chicago and
the surrounding territory have
shown more advance than -any-oth-
er portions Of the United States.
ChicaAo's great industrial institu-'
t1ons needed labor. During the
period between 1870 and 1890 i'm
migration from the South respond
ed to the call. The Negro who
came worked side by side with the
foreign-born laborer under SUPER
vision of Yankee bosses. From the
one he learned by actual contact
how to work steadily, how to use
his wages thrifty, the beauties of
a home, and a definite system Of
savings. From the latter he ac-
quired. true knowledge OF the
a manly bearing.
The Chicago stock yards have
been responsible for more Negroes
becoming taxpayers than any other
institution in this land, excepting
possibly, the Pullman company
Contrast the horizon Of these men
with that Of eastern Negroes, near
ly always servants Of hotels, clubs
or homes, where the nature of their
employment brought to their view
nothing but ease, splendor Of gar
ment, surroundings and extrava-
gance. The eastern "boy" saw
"Mr. George" during his hours Of
recreation and initiated him. He
saw the top OF society's structure
| without knowing Of it's foundation,
as did the Chicago boy. Without
; that influence and without the pa
| ternalism Of the southland the Chi
cago Negro developed u business
ability based upon economy and
Willingness to work.
These seemed TO be tie founda-
tions upon which ia built Chicago S
black citizenship.

given an ovation such as only COL

The colored population of Cal

Many whites patronize business en-

proof of their friendliness in re-

In 1900, September Sth, the col

lost almost all their property, as
a result of the disastrous storm and
flcod that swept over and deluged
the city that fateful night.
Their progress, therefore, today
