THREE YEARS GROWTH OF
THE ABYSSINIAN CHURCH.
Congregation Prospers Under the Rev
Dr.. A. c. Powell's Ministry.

December. 1911, marked the close Of
the third year of the pastorate of the
Rev. Dr. A. Clayton Powell at the
Abyssinian Baptist church in New
York DIR. Powelfs anniversary ser
mon consisted of n critical review OF
the spiritual, financial and numerical
growth of the church and was one of
the best discourses which the pastor
has delivered during his three years
pastorate of that large and influential
congregation.
Under his ministry the church has
enjoyed an unparalleled degree of sue
cess. a recital of the accomplishments
sounds more like fiction than facts OF
church history. During the three years
the pastor has made 1O41 sick calls.
conducted 2G9 funerals, married fifty
three couples. prayed for seventy-one
babies, delivered in his own church
two lectures. 40T sermons and mid
week gospel addresses; = delivered at
other churches and halls 100 sermons.
lectures and addresses. thus making
total of 531 sermons, addresses and
lectures delivered in three years.
DR.. Powell well said that only man
who has passed through such an ex-
per ence knows the time, nerve force
and blood required in the preparation
necessary for the delivery of this mum
Der of speeches. During the three
years the church collected from all
sources S61 .297.12 and paid on its debts
$1O.351 When Rev. Mr. Powell took
charge the church owed on all its
properties S145,357. 1t now owes Sl35,-
coo and had paid in interest during
his pastorate S21, 500 and for addition
to the church $500.
During the three years 703 members
have been added to the roll. 1t is now
considered one of the strongest church.
es financially, spiritually and numer-
ically in the north, having a member
ship of 2,300. AS an illustration of
this during the one hundred and third
anniversary, which was recently cele-
brated. the pastor asked for $500, and
$4,000 was the amount received.
The church is thoroughly united, and
no people are showing their love for
than the Abyssinians. In addition to
about 500 worth of Christmas gifts
made him and his family. the members
gave him 4 handsome purse as an ey-
preston of their love and high apprc
citation for his three years service.

INDUSTRIAL STATISTICS.
Wonderful Achievements Of the
Race In Pennsylvania.


Race In Pennsylvania.
Unusual public comment has
been aroused in the annual re-
port of John L. Rockey, chief
recorder of the state bureau of
industrial statistics, because of
the fact that for the first time
there is included in his report an
account of the realty holdings,
personal property and industrial
activities among the colored peo-
pie of the state. The report
shows that individuals and or
ganizations hold title to real es-
tate valued at $2O,OOO,OOO. The
assessment on said realty
amounts to S13.OOO,OOO.
In the city of Philadelphia
alone the race owns 1850 parcels
of real estate subject to taxation,
of which the assessed valuation
is $2,S01,2T5. In Pittsburgh there
are 643 pieces of property cred
tied to members of the race, with
an assessed value of slab, ,06O,
the market value of which is ST.
$4,000. In other cities. like
Harrisburg, the property hold
ings of the colored citizens are
estimated at from $4,000 to
$15O,OOO
Mr.. Rockey's report further
shows that there are upward of
$4,000 persons of African descent
employed at gainful occupations,
classified as follows: Engaged
at domestic service, 694 per cent;
manufacturing, 1913 per cent;
transportation, 11.6 per cent; ag-
riculture, 4.6 per cent, and in
professional service, 1.5 per cent
Within the past decade there
have sprung up number of
thrifty business concerns which
give employment to members of
the race. There are eleven build
ing and loan associations in the
state conducted by persons of
means and experience. There
are 359 churches besides many
other religious organizations
owned by the colored people in
the state. which are valued at
