This covenant OF the league Of ma
lions IS an alliance and not a league,
as is amply shown by the provisions

nations. Those same nations, the
principal allied and associated powers,
also dominate the league through the
council.
The committee believe that the
league as It stands viii breed wars
instead OF securing peace They also
believe that the covenant OF the
league demands sacrifices Of Ameri-
can Independence and sovereignty,
which would in no way promote the
worlds peace, but which are fraught
with the gravest dangers 10 the fu-
ture safety and well being OF the
United States.
ssThe amendments and reserTn-

the United States may be excluded

that certainly will not happen. The

MEETING OF THE NATIONAL
NEGRO BUSINESS LEAGUE

Tuskegee Inst, Ala.-At the last
meeting of the National Negro Bush
ness League, at Atlantic City, N J.,
DR.. Robert R. Motion, Chairman of
the Executive Committee, in an adj
dress proposed a three-fold plan to
the members Of the National League,
which included a thoroughly organ
lied effort on the part of Negro news
papers to solicit national advertising
and to extend their circulation. Sec
ond, a stronger organization Of State
and Local Negro Business Leagues
and a closer cooperation with Negro
farmers in the matter of marketing
farm products. Third, to establish a
fund from which advances might be
made to earnest, ambitious, honest
young. men and women in!helping
them TO establish business enterpris-
es. This thrse-fold plan was thought
fully discussed by many of the lead
ing men present and it was decided
to endeayor to translate a part at
least of this very comprehensive plan
into something concrete at the st.
Louis meeting Of the League this
year.
Program material is being rapidly
put into shape by the. Secretary, Dr..
Emmett J. Scott, and the officers Of
the st. Louis League have appointed

Crow-ism one may witness any night
in the Black Billy Sunday revival
meetings whether in exclusive Evans
ton or down in Texas. Black Billy
breaches the Gospel that Christ is

for the worlds ills. Many on every
side are heard to say that Black

himself the same fearless foe, the

In October, 1896; Rev. J. Gordon

of the members Of the famous gath

present he and the writer nave oeen
warm friends. He faithfully served
with that regiment in Cuba during
the Spanish-American War in 1885,
and greatly assisted to administer to
the sick and the afflicted, he was right
mp in front and was in the thiekest
of the fighting when the members
of that regiment made its long to be
remembered charge up San Juan Hill

BROTHER JAKE JOHNSON OF DENVER, COLO, WAS
TERRIBLY SCALDED WITH BOILING Hot WATER
BY HIS WIFE Fer MAKING LOVE TO HER
BEAUTIFUL NIECE
BY CHARLES E. STUMP

Denver, COlo.-Have you ever eat
en- any real tough. rooster? The peO-
pie in Denver were about to be feast
ed on a big human rooster a few
days ago, and if you can just get
in touch with Brother Jake johnson,
whose body was prepared to be pick
ed for the stewing pan, and even
some of his flesh was cooked done
enough to eat, but it was too tough.
This is how it happened. Way back
yonder within the memory of man,
who won the heart of beautiful
young damsel, and they secured a
preacher who tied the knot so tight
that even eternity could not unite it.
He declared that God had joined
them together and the man who at
tempted to unite it would have to
tell God the reason for so doing.
Things have moved along smoothly,
but Sister Johnson, lost by age some
of her teeth, and her face began TO
have lines on it like the map of the
United States, and she could not
move along as she once could.
But now you want to know what
had that to do with it. Not a thing.
Brother johnson remained young, on
first, Logging. He liked the young
girls and was found of their COM
pany. His wrinkled-faced wife did
not pay much attention to this, be-
cause he was always fond of chill
dren. There came into the home her
beautiful young niece. She was an
aggrivating brown, that would be a
model in any fashion store for beauty.
She was endowed with it, and the
wife did not have to appeal to her
husband to help to dress the girl, for
he found every dollar he got hold Of
at the disposal of the young girl. He
wanted her to dress and look as well
as my of the other girls.
But things went wrong in that home
few Sundays ago. The wife was
up and about getting breakfast, the
girl, not feeling welL had remained
in her room a little late that morn
ing, and the good head of the house
was taking his usual morning rest,
but by some means in a dream he got
in the other room in the bed where
this young neice was. The wife fell
upon her knees and talked to the
Lord for a few minutes in this man
ner:
Lord, it has always been my aim
to serve you on Sundaysmorning, but

THE BLACK BILLY SUNDAY"
HOLDS RoUSNG REVIVAL
MEETINGS AT EVANSToE, ILL.


Black Baly Sunday, the man with
a burning message that has thrilled
thousands from coast to coast, has
invaded the exclusive strongholds Of
the mul6-miIlionaires and the near
multi-milhonaires with his old-time
gospel, and hundreds are erowding
the Mt. Zion Baptist Church nightly,
of which the eminent DR.. E. P. Jones,
who is president of the Great Nation
al Baptist Convention (unincOrpOrat-
ed), is the genial pastor. No evan
gelist has ever visited Evanston and
so stirred the community with such
religious fervor as this gifted man of
God, while the Search Light" has at
tempted to stir up a tempest IN a
tea pot under the bold caption Jim
Crow Revival In Evanston" If there
is such a revival in progress in Ev-
anstOn, the editor Of this yellow jour
nal is urged to come to Evanston and
locate the same or forever be brand
ed as the man who beat the Devil
at his own game and he is the father
of lies. If reports are true Black
Billy has held meetings down m the
Negotiating South, where the race
lines are drawn 30 close until one
could hardly slip q sheet Of paper
between the lines, and reports from
Southern journals have told the story
under glowing head lines Of the great
meetings, where color lines were
thrown to the four winds, 50 anxious
have been the people TO hear the old
Gospel.
1t can be said Of Black BIliys
work here IN Evanston that it has no
earmarks of the sO-ealled Negro r.
viivals with old-time grOtiousness and
