vorable comment
! The idea of having the representa-
tives of the institutions fostered by
the Land Grant college fund meet once
or twice q year to discuss the many
phases of work and detail connected
with such agricultural and Industrial

the right direction. The paramount

BILE a uniform system of teaching, dis
\ cipline and general school manage
ment.

DOINGS OF THE ODD FELLOWS
AND HOUSEHOLD FOR THE
PAST WEEK.

Il has been suggested that the
Household find hall farther from
the Odd Fellows next time, as the
men would hardly let the ladies trans
act their business for paying them
fraterna1 visits. However, we are
glad to see this bond of sisterly and
brotherly devotion. 1t is a sign that
the two orders will prosper and grow

are sent by the suffrage of their fellow
citizens A dispatch from Paris re
Gently says that the race and color
question that was raised In the French
chamber of deputies by the bill Of the
Negro deputy. NJ. Diagne, representing
Senegal, providing for the extension of
general compulsory military service In
France to colonial municipalities whose
inhabitants enjoy French citizenship,
was presented in numerous new lights
and complications at the session of the
chamber.
The question of how to apportion a
pension In cases Of polygamist Sene-
galese leaving several widows proved
poser for the deputies. The minis
ter of war and the military committee
Of the chamber approved the general
provisions of the Diagne bill, which
provide for the incorporation with
the regular French forces of the Sene-
galese subject to compulsory service.
The action of the committee was i'm
mediately attacked by Deputy La
broue. who pictured the difficulties
arising from the presence in the French
army of soldiers unable to speak
French and of different religion and
social customs.
Deputy Labroue also raised the ques-
tfon of confusion in the payment Of
pensions to the widows of polygamous
Senegalese. He proposed an amend
ment providing for the incorporation
of such troops in native regiments en-
titled to pensions and the other rights
of French citizens. The speaker was
frequently interrupted by protests from
the Negro DepGties Diagne, Lagrosil-
liere Of Martinique and Candace and
Boisneuf of Guadeloupe, Lagrosilliere
crying amid frantic applause, Our fel-
low citizens ask only to be allowed
to serve the mother country. for which
they already have poured out their
blood.
Paul Deschanel, president of the
chamber, was forced to quell the tu-
multi by declaring that the entire cham
Der felt "the same respect ard the
same love for all, whatever their race
or religion, who are fighting under the
folds of the tricolored flag" Deputy
Labroue insiste ON the special regf
ments for Senegalese who do not speak
French. Deputy Boisneuf interrupted.
crying, II then demand special regi
ment for Frenchmen unable to read
and write"
Deputy Diagne then obtained the
floor and made an eloquent appeal OF
behalf of the blacks. reviewing thu
part they had played n conquering the
French colonial empire For eleven
months the Senegalese have demanded
to be allowed to serve France he
said 'if they haven't cen permitted
to do so It If he fault Of the minister
, of war;"
Deputy Diagne said that the WIDOWS
of soldiers ought to receive pensions
even when there were .,everal, but ne
added: Native soldiers are not as rich
as the average French soldier, who Is
also poor and therefore has only one
wife Polygamy is d luxury of wealth. u

war, said the Diagne oiis seemed to
aeet the wishes of a majority Of the
colonials and urged itf passage. The
bill was passed without change.

Prof Jackson, of the Department OF
Music, Of Western University" OF
Kansas, is not only a teacher and
composer, but the best Negro Pipe
Organist and Chorus Director of his
Race. To see and hear him as he di-
reefs the large chorus in Beethoven's IS
"Halle1ujah" from Mount of Olives,
Nevin's Chorus "The Rosary" and
other selections; the works of the
Master Composers, places him among
the best musicians of this age But
he is more than a genius when ii
comes to the Negro conception OF
their own Folk Songs; and that that
has been found impossible for the
Caucasin TO successfully teach or re-
produce, the peculiarly characteristic
Folklore Songs, as sung in the Negro
days of Bondage, and after the Eman-
cipation by Fisk Jubilee Singers" and
by late Race Composers, as S. Cole

scious art of the past, and with the

him above all others.

In an interview with Mrs. Dodge IN
regard to the convention held at 18th

before stated, no president can do her
best work in one year. She feels that
she should have at least had two
years to accomplish any tangible re-
suits. However, she is satisfied that
she has done her full duty. Mrs.
Dodge scorns the idea of any division
between the North and South and
says they should stand more firmly
together. Mrs Dodge says she in
tends to do as much for the building
up OF Club work in the future as she
has in the past. Mrs. Dodge has
been very busy the past week, visit
ing Angel Island and attending nu-
merous entertainments given in her
honor. She expects to visit San
Quentin as she has heard that there
is discrimination of prisoners in that
institution. Mrs Dodge left for her
