Many Unjust Laws, Says Francis.
This is the statement made yester-
day by w. T. Francis, lawyer, prom
inent among st. Paul Negroes. Ac-
cording to Mr.. Francis, unjust legisla-
ton is being passed continually
against the rights of the colored race.
Leaders of the movement say it Is to
combat this injustice that the Negroes
all over the country are setting aside
the third Sunday in October for pray
er. "Give us a manifestation from
heaven that this oppression will
cease" is their plea.
Will Be Countrywide Movement.
Churches in nearly every state in
the country are setting aside the day.
1t is expected that the national color
ed Baptist convention, which is in ses-
sion in Nashville this week and the
Iowa conference of the African Meth
odist church at Evanston, ILL.,, the lat
ter part Of September will officially
designate the third Sunday in Octo-
Der to be observed in all the churches
represented at the two conferences.
Word has been received from Balti-
more that the Ministers Alliance of
African Churches of Maryland, which
holds it's convention this week, also
will consider the matter favorably.

The Minnesota delegation at the
X. p. Encampment was very much in
evidence at Camp Cresswell. Brig.
Genl. w. r. Morris headquarters were
one Of the attractions on the Brigade

all, Col. Fred Thomas, Maj. w. M.
Scott, Maj. H. G. Thompson, Capt.
Clack, Lieut.. Ed. Southall. After Wis
iting the camp we called on Col. and
Mrs. Edw. F. Mitchell, whose tent was
the feature Of the encampment. It
was luxuriously furnished with rich
laces, draperies and pillows. Col.
Mitchell is an officer on Maj. Genr
Jackson's staff. During dress parade
moving pictures were taken under the
direction Of Mr.. Hunter G. Haynes,
which will be shown all over the coun-
try, and every one was proud of the
splendid military showing of the Uni
form Rank. The music of the 9Th
Illinois Band was grand. After parade
we answered mess call at GenI Nor
ris tent, and enjoyed a splendid sup
per with the officers. Mrs. Lapsley
and Marguerite" were special guests.
We left for the city with Gen. Morris
to find Prof. Howard and Mr.. Jas.
Branch. Prof. Howard had been spend
ing his vacation in his native city,
Baltimore, where he Is we'll known.
He is a relative of the Cummings
family, and was very busy paying
calls, but "Uncle Jim" Branch after
spending two days in Baltimore had
gone to Atlantic City to meet the Elks,
having been a Grand Lodge delegate,
he decided to see his old acquantances
and attend the ball. Mrs. Washington
and Mrs. Lapsley stopped at the Y.
w. c. A. rooms during their stay, and
left after the parade for Atlantic City
with Gen1 Morris to join the social
throng on the Boardwalk. Prof. Weir
of st. Paul and Capt. 8. Seymour were
also in attendance at the encamp-
ment. We are glad to say that Min
nesota did well, and its delegation in
every way we'll enjoyed their stay.

IT PAYS TO ADVERTISE.

We claim to be the best advertising
medium of the Twin Cities, and when
you're not advertised in the Twin

all. Because the people read the
Star for the news, especially in Min.
neapoIis. The day of the Town Crier
Is past. Be up-to-date, Advertise and
Pay for It. A newspaper is the best
medium. 1t reaches the homes and
firesides Of people who attend public
entertainments. These people never
go out and loiter around and read
hand.bills and hangup notices. They
