The A. M. E. Conference of this
district is becoming a clearing house
tor Negro crooks. They issue a
license to preach, which is permit to
steal and a privilege to beg. These
circulating scoundrels should be
among the hustlers and grafters OF
carnival company, instead of stand
ing in the pulpit of the church of God
They should not be permitted to
affiliate with the worthy members of
the clergy-who suffer from the faults
OF their brethren. Most of these inn
migrants go from city to city, leaving
behind disgraceful record. They are
syndicated and have become a power
tul factor in the Conference.

DIR. REDD ACCUSED.

Mr.. J. M. Brown brought suit for
absolute divorce from his wife, Ethel,
this week, upon grounds of adultery
and cruel and inhuman treatment.
He names DR.. J. H. Redd as COR
respondent. The action is the result
of an investigation by Mr.. Brown,
who received information from his
wife, that Editor Smith had attempted
to blackmail them. As we before
published, we confidently informed
DR.. Redd about current gossip, and he
conspired with Mrs. Brown to tell her
husband, that Smith had threatened
to write them up Had Smith
wanted to expose conditions or to
bring about a separation in either
family (Dr. Redd is married to a
daughter of Prof. c. H. Moore, or
GAMER of the National Negro Busi-
ness League), he would not have con-
fided with DR.. Redd, but would have
told either Mrs. Redd or Mr.. Brown.
After being threatened with legal
proceedings, we published our expla-
nation of our part in the affair. Mr..
Brown, who had been our personal
friend, believed in his wife's inno-
cence, and for that reason, he, de-
clared war on the Star. He gave her
every protection and deserves credit.
Most men are just the opposite. The
affair had been almost forgotten when
Mr.. Brown informed US of the truth
of the current rumors, and after a
family quarrel, he had resorted to
law. He claims that suit will be
brought against DR.. Redd for alienat-
ing his wife's affections. Smith has
never made any charges against DR..
Redd or advised any separation, as it
is a mans privilege to love and honor
his wife under all conditions. Mrs.
Brown is a white woman and family
friend of the Redds, and DR.. Redd,
was given many privileges by Mr..
Brown, because he was their family
doctor. Brown claims that they have
had immoral relations during past two
years.

SUCCESSFUL YOUNG BUSINESS
MEN

Messrs. Jasper and Hiram Gibbs,
sons of Mrs. lone E. Gibbs, are the
proprietors of the ]. and H. Wet
Wash Laundry. These young men of
our race, have made success in their
business, and have, from a small be-
ginning, established one of the lead
ing laundries of this big city. They
served the public, delivered the goods
and deserved success. If we forget
Our color, conduct our business along
right lines, demand of every one a

consideration, we will be a factor in

Frank Miller has annexed another
lot to his proposed garage site on At
lantic avenue and Fifth street and now
owns the Fifth street frontage be-
tween the Great Northern right of
way and Fifth street. The lot was
formerly THE property of S. Stewart.
In the deal Mr.. Stewart takes the
Miller residence lot at Seventh and
Nevada streets, on the west side.
Mr.. Miller has not decided definite
" whether he will erect the garage
on the corner occupied by the Colyer
& Olson undertaking par'ors or on the
lot adjoining the SpIitstoser meat
market. His new property aquisition
increases the value of the corner for
building purposes and his friends are
counseling the advisability of keeping
the lots clear for future developments.
Plans for the new garage have been
adopted and the work of erection will
be commenced as soon as Albert. Mill
err returns from Minneapolis at which
time the matter of the site will be de-
cided upon.
