The Grand Master arose from a
sick-bed to pay visit to the three
Masonic Lodges in St. Joseph, Mo-,
Thursday night, and feels amply re-
paid by the magnificent and enthusi-
astic reception accorded him. He was
accompanied by Sir w. G. Mosely, Rt.
Eminent Grand Commander, and Geo.
w. X. Love, Grand Secretary and they
had the time of their lives. A spirit
of harmony and good fellowship such
as has not been known in st. Joseph
in years prevailed and each of the
three lodges tried to outdo the other
in making the occasion complete
success.
An elegant and bountiful luncheon
was served to all present and brief
but happy addresses were delivered
by Grand Master Crews, Sir Mosely,

Worthy of All Kindness Shown
Mrs. Luda Bruce Fox Beloved by All Who Knew
Her In Church, Home and Fra
ternal Organizations.
Three Cities Hannibal, Mo, Omaha, Neb., and Kan
sas City, Join In Sincere Expressions
of Their Sympathy.

Luda Bruce Fox was born in Han
nibal, Missouri, September Is, 1864
and passed away after a painful and
lingering illness January IA, 1915.
To my many readers and friends
desire to say that she was a loving
and devoted wife. She professed a
hope in Christ when but a child and
ever after lived consistent Chris
tian. She lived in Hannibal in the
early years of her life and her father
having died in the early seventies and
her mother being poor and with other
small children to support, she deter
mined that If she was to secure an
education, she must win it for herself
and so she earned her way through
school by working for the family of
]. B. Price, a wealthy lumber dealer
in that city. She finished the course
laid down in the Hannibal schools
and in 1879 the family moved to Oma-
ha where after taking several courses
in languages and music, she gradual
ed. In 1884 Prof. j. H. Pelham sent
for her to become one of the Faculty
of the Douglass high school in the city
Of Hannibal and she taught there un-
til 1879. After a severe attack of ILL
ness, she. was compelled to give up
her work and her mother who was
then living and brother John E. Bruce
took her home to Omaha. Although
assisted in carrying Miss Bruce on
the train on that day many years ago
little did 1 think that she was at a
future day to be my wife. After her
recovery Prof. Jas. H. Baldwin, know
ing her ability as teacher sent for
her to come to Kansas City in 1901
where she remained and taught very
successfully until 1905 when she was
welded to the writer, June 21st of that
year.
l can truthfully say that from that
day until, her death she never spoke
a harsh or ugly word to me and oh
how l shall miss her; but God "who
doeth all things well, knows the
best"
The funeral services of the Ladies
of the Golden Circle held at 600 p.
m. Saturday, January 16, were very
impressive. AS were also the public
services held on Sunday at Allen
chapel, and as 1 sat and listened to
the lovely music by Prof. R. G. Jack
son and those sweet and beautiful
songs that she loved so well as sung
by Aliens unequaled choir which
were Take it to the Lord in Prayer;
Let Jesus Come Into Your Heart;
and "Asleep in Jesus; sounded like
an angel choir in Heaven and will
never be forgotten by me. Also per-
nit me to make special mention of
that sweet solo Flee as a Bird" as
sung by that dear friend OF our fam
lily, Mrs. Matte Dean. After this
music our hearts were tuned and pre-
pared for the beautiful Eulogy and
resolutions of Condolences which
were read from the Golden Circle, the
Book Lovers Club, Carnation Court

.SPINGARN SPEAKS
PROLONGED RECEPTION VERY
INTERESTING.
N. A. A. c. P. Keep Late
Hours for the New
Abolitionist.

Homers Odyssey never more re
flected the final home coming of the
Greek hero Ulysses by hints and
signs than did the meeting at the Y.
M. c. A. building suggest that every
one was on tiptoe listening and wait
ing for an important person who hap
pened not to be a Greek myth but a
much alive man full of plenty good
fighting blood. Prof. Spingarn ar
rived about forty minutes late after
being suddenly transported from train
to motor car and as quickly to the
| Paseo branch where he found a
crowded house awaiting contentedly
the arrival of the man whom Color
ed people are learning to admire and
love. 1t was a quick message and
narration of real acts of association
work that have amounted to some
thing in the last ten days. Segrega-
ton, Prescription, Jim Crowism and
discrimination have heard the voice
of justice commanding thus: Back
hitherto shalt thou come and no
| luTIueT anu mere SudlJ Iny pIOuU
waves be stayed" Mr.. Spingarn has
an earnest, decisive and enthusiastic
style of address that takes hold and
pitches everything in front and that
of which he does approve he turns
topsy turvey, the rest he pushes in
the right direction. The gentleman
did not know that he was billed to
speak lowing to a confusion of tele.
grams) but the very fact that he
spoke under the conditions is the fin
est testimonial of his sincere work
for the Afro-American's cause. While
waiting several were called on for
remarks" among whom was Mr.. AL.
bert Jacobson a white friend and
member of the association who won
applause and friendship by his pure
and noble words which everyone vot.
ed as coming from the heart" Miss
Todd, Miss Anna j. Jones, Dr. Keal-
ing, Prof. Bowser- and others shared
the evenings duties and there was
much gained in the way of helpful
ness.
