HERE AND THERE

The Knights of Pythia has been in ses-
sion in st. Louis for the past week and 1t
is reported the largest delegation OF men,
bers of the order that have ever before as
sembled were on hand.
The Twenty-fourth Infantry is now at
Camp Logan near Houston, Texas, and the
company is reported to be in the pink OF
condition. 1t recently had row with the
whites Of Texas and as a result some I'M
pleasantness was created
Many attempts have bee nmade to burn
the homes of colored folks in East st.
Louis who left them at the time of the
riots and as yet have not returned. This is
evidently being done with the view of
intimidating them into not returning.
Political jealousy of the spirit of, eff
can't, you shant," is responsible for the
retirement Of the Ohio Colored Company,
at which COL Young was as the head
The row ragged so raw and strong that the
governor tired Of it all and ordered the
company disbanded, which means the per-
manent retirement of COL Young. This
is the oft told tale among the colored citi-
zens of the United States
Rev. Hollis Burke Frissel principal of
Hampton Institute, one of the foremost in
situations of the South for the education of
colored youths, suddenly died at the insti-
tuition. DR.. Frissel was the successor of
Col. Armstrong, the founder of the school,
and was almost as much instrumental in it's
success as was Col. Armstrong himself
committee of cOlered men called at the
White House recently to protest to the
president against the growing outrages per-
petrated upon colored citizens in various
parts Of the country. The spokesman of
the committee was James w. johnson, con-
tributing editor to the Age of New York
and secretary Of the National Association
for the Advancement of Colored People.
The president refused to see the commit

will not go South to train, according to an

black men will not have to train among
those white heathens, but it does seem that
Uncle Sam would be able to send his sold
lers wherever he desires at least in his own
country, but the White House, being under
the influence Of the South will doubtless
continue to do as the southerners want it
to do.
copy of the compiled reports of the
seventeenth annual session of the National
Negro Business Mems League, which was
held in Kansas City last August, has Just
reached this office and it is chuck full of
good things The chief organizer of this
league was the late Dr. Booker II. Wash
ington and that was the first meeting held
after his death, and the memorial ad-
dresses showed in what high esteem he was
held, not only by the members of the
league, but by the citizens Of this country

will be held in Chattanooga, Tenn.

The Eighth Illinois Regiment having been
mustered in the government service the
begun the organizing of home guard, the
services Of which will be rendered to the
governor Of the state. There was move
looking toward the organizing of similar
body in Seattle, but it seems to have died
a bornin. Let's hope the Business Mems
League of Seattle will revive the effort
and absolutely put in into effect, providing
the governor will accept the company, and
even if he does not, it would not be a bad
idea to organize it just the same for it
might come in handy when you least ex-
pect it.
At convention of charity workers held
in Hampton, Virginia, twenty white south
erners met like number of black southern
ers and discussed without reserve the social
relations between the whites and the blacks,
how the one could learn of the other and,
Ill.
The mooted question has been, how to most
effectively reach the colored needy by the
whites. In some of the cities in the South
no distinction is made and black person
gets the same consideration as white per-
son. but this is the exception and by no
means the rule. The good that may be
done for the needy colored is lost sight of
by the whites lest in doing so the black
folks will get the idea that they, the
whites, are extending to them social equal
ity. AS in charity work so in religious
work, majority of the whites worshiping
at the shrine Of race prejudice instead Of
at the shrine of Jesus Christ and Him cru
Gifted. Prof. Kelley Miller was one of the
principal speakers, he representing Wash
ington City, and his talk was along broad
and liberal lines. He advocated the drop
ping of all colors and conditions, when
doing charity and religious work. In those
cities that have joint boards of white and
cclored members far better results are
achieved by the charity workers.
