RACIAL QUESTIONS ARE
AMONG MOST IMPORTANT.
coIorsd Americans Taking Care Of
Own Problem, Says Or. Macarthur.

In an able address at the national
convention Of Baptist young people OF
America, which held its sessions at the
Baptist temple. Brooklyn, for five days
recently, the Rev. DR.. Robert Stuart
Macarthur, who was for forty years
or more pastor of the Calvary Baptist
church in New York city, referring to
the unjust discrimination and preju-
dice practiced against the colored peo-
pie, made the following sweeping dec
laration:
1.-THE question of religion must be
studied racially. Racial questions are
among the most important considera-
lions Of the hour. We hear persons
talk Of the Negro question. but this
is question Of minor importance
The Negro is an American. He speaks
English. He Is vastly more American
than many Of us who affect to be his
superior.
He is taking care Of his own ques-
ton in an interesting way. The serfs
of Russia were liberated before Mr..
Lincoln issued his emancipation proc
lamation. The Negro in America has
made vastly greater strides In the ac-
QUESTION Of property. in the possession
of education and in the development
of Christian life than have the serfs
Of Russia.
1.-THE whole problem in America is
finding its own solution. Perhaps the
greatest danger we have today is with
the ignorant white people rather than
with the Negro.
There are enormously difficult racial
questions in several states today, but
they are largely questions affecting the
white race rather than the Negro.
1.-The Anglo-Saxon race Is autocratic,
proud and self opinionated. It is ex-
tremely hard to get on with It in many
parts Of the world 1t treats not only
the black race, but also the brown
race az II both races were greatly in
ferior."

X1HS EFFIE KING AND MISS LOTT1B GEH.
be mentioned the Misses Ef1e King
and Lottie Gee, the Ginger Girls, in q
refined singing and dancing act.
These talented young women have
one of the best SISTER" acts in vaude-
vile. Both have excellent voices and
know how to use them. The act IL
beautifully costumed and staged with
artistic taste. IT.
They are conscientious workers, and
their services are constantly In de-
mand. Miss King was born in Lima,
O., and educated in the public and
high schools of that city. She began
her musical career in the A. M. r.
church Of that city, and later Joined
the Mitchell Sisters Of Wilberforce uni
versity I'm the American Jubilee chorus.
Miss King appeared with Williams
and Walker for two years, and with
the Smart Set company for two years,
and later Joined her present partner in
vaudeville.
There is no more ambitious student
among the colored performers than
Miss Lottie Gee. Her aim has been
to please, as she has successfully done.
To this end she has thoroughly pre-
pared herself. Miss Gee Is a native
Of Virginia.
She, with Miss King, Joined the
American Jubilee company, Williams
and Walker company and later enter
ed vaudeville. These young women
represent the better element Of young
colored performers on the American
stage. Both own property, thus show
ing that their efforts have not been in
vain.

.PALAIS ROYAL Plans
BUILDING EXTENSION
Front of Structure at 18th and
G Streets to Be Car
ried North.

Another unit is to be added to the es-
tablishment of the Palais Royal. The
18th street front of the building at 18th
and G streets northwest is to be car
ried farther to the north, according to
plans which are now under considera-
ton by Mr.. Lisner. For some time past
he has owned the adjoining property to
the north. which he purchased with the
view of providing for tn" additional room
which experience had taught him was
periodically needed in order to accom-
modate his growing business
Some time next fall the three buildings
111-15 18th street, are to be taken down
making available a building site sixty
feet wide and one hundred feet in depth
Here will be erected the new section OF
the building, which will correspond In
exterior appearance and in height with
the present building. 1t will be the third
enlargement OF the original Palas Royal
that Mr.. Lisner built some twenty years
ago on the corner of 18th and G. streets
after removing some old residences
which then occupied the site.
Since then an addition of two stories
has been made and two years ago a
wide frontage on G street was built up,
adding materially to the floor space
When the latest addition is completed
the floor space will be further increased
by some $1,000 feet, giving a total OF
1S3, 800 square feet.

PLANS Of SEMINARY
ATTRACTING ATTENTION
Tract of Land Acquired Is in
a Coming Educational
Center.

The announcement that a large tract of
west Of Wisconsin avenue had been pur-
chasedas a site for young ladies' sem
mary has attracted good deal of atten-
ton. This is not so much because the new
owner OF the land. Miss Somers. who is at
the head Of the Mount Vernon Seminary,
intends to remove that large educational
plant from it's present location within
the original limits of the city to the new
location In the suburbs, as because the
group OF buildings Of the new Mount YER
non Seminary will be in a neighborhood
that Is to become quite an educational
center.
On the east side of Nebraska avenue, or
the old-time Ridge road. is the group OF
buildings where il is expected in the near
future the students of the American Uni
versity will assemble. Massachusetts
avenue extended passes along the north
borders of the university grounds,
while short distance to the north of
the junction of Massachusetts, and Ne
braska avenues and on the east side of
the latter lie the eighteen acres which
Miss Somers has just acquired.
This new holding comprises In part the
ground about the old house which is now
occupied by the Country Club and was
known some years ago as Grasslands A
recent act of Congress gave authority to
the Washington Railway Company to
build q branch of It's line on WISCONSIN
avenue west along Massachusetts avenue
10 the bounds of the District, and il is ex-
pected by the time the American Uni
versity is ready to open it's doors, which
may be this fall, the railroad line will he
in operation

Julius tower at Spandau. and which is
now to be increased to 0,0o0OJo. The
ordinary explanation is that the money
is to be employed in case of a sudden
outbreak of war. This calls up the pic
ture of the kaiser ordering the chief OF
the general staff to run around the cor
ner and bring back a dozen trainloads OF
rye bread and canned beef and q couple
of batteries OF artillery. Even suppos-
ing that Germany were in the throes or
an unprecedented financial panic and
credit lay PROSTATE, and France seized
the opportunity to declare war, IL is not
to be imagined that the imperial govern
ment would find IL impossible 10 obtain
funds for war. One is inclined TO believe
that the golden hoard in the Julius tower
