READ MEDITATE HUSTLE AGITATE Tho American Negro must read, meditate, hustle and agitate if he would obtain anything llko an equal chance In that raco which results only in the survival of the fittest. While there Is so much agitation going on in tho daily press, as to tho necessity of strengthening our defenses and In creasing our military forces, wouldn't It be a good idea as well as the right time to petition his excellency the tiovernor to authorize the organiza tion of the Negro Regiments In the State of Missouri? Now that tho election is virtually over In which an attepmt to make tho political pot "boll" has been a dismal failure It will be well for tho country to buckle down to business and re move, if possible, the depression that has settled over the country through lack of confidence In tho present ad ministration. Colored women who aro waxing warm over tho subject of suffrage should bear in mind the fact that all "Jim Crow" legislation has como at the behest of women. If tho "Full Crew" amendment car ries, the railroads will bo compel' led to hire more brakemen. Then In order to retrench, they will bo compel led to lay off the colored porters. Voto against Amendment No. 9. School authorities have given out a rule' prohibiting outside phono calls to schools except during tho first half hour of each half-day session and af ter 3 o'clock. This Is a good rule and will bo appreciated by teachers who desire to do their Work uninterrupted, The return of Rev. Wm. H. Thomas to the pastorate of Allen Chapel in sures nnother year of prosperity for both pastor and . church. Rev. Thomas, coming among strangers ono year ago, has moro than made good and has established himself not only as a groat preacher but as a sterling christian leader and a strong factor in the moral and social life of the com munity. Naturally there are a few perhaps, who havo not learned to ap preciate the value of his work for good reasons, which Ignorance and jealousy so easily contrive disparage his efforts. But tho fact remains that the church debts are being paid, the membership increased as never be fore, tho congregation growing with each week and tho services attracting the attention of the most intelligent and cultured, all fo which looks good to us. tors.

All of these young physicians are graduates of tho 'Meharry Medical Col lege nt Nashville, Tenn. Dr. E. O. Hone of Howard University passed tho Kansas Board and -mas complimented 'by them. Among the attractive features of tho October number of tho Crisis was tho half-page cut of the three beauti ful and Interesting children ot (Mr. and Mrs. Olilton Webster of St. Joseph, Mo. The natuaralness of their poso and their roguish smiling counte- nanco havo enlisted admiration from all who have seen the pictures. Among the many candidates seeking election no next Tuesday there Is none more upright aud conscientious than Alderman Miles Bulger who Is run ning for presiding Judge of the coun ty court on the Democratic ticket. Alderman Bulger Is a man renowned for his strong convictions and always exhibits the moral courage to back them. We predict for Miles Bulger the largest voto cast for any candi date for office In Jackson county next Tuesday, itr. Bulger has ex pressed strong sympathy for the charity negroes at the county poor farm, and deplores the unsanitary and other frightful conditions which exist there. If elected he will Immediately begin to remedy this existing evil. President George Evans writes that George R. Smith college at Sedalla, Mo., opened very encouragingly. That a number of Improvements and repairs have been made this summer; the fac ulty has been strengthened and an earnest spirit was manifested on the part of the students. Prof. Evans also Informs us that tho farm has become a real industrial feature under the su pervision of Prof. B. H. Lilliard of this city. MAY END LID CLUBS HERE. The Police Commissioners Say They Will Enforce the Law to the Let ter When They Receive the Decision. The decision of the Missouri su premo court yesterday that clubs, so cial, benevolent or any kind, that dis pense intoxicating liquors must take out dramshop licenses is of the most far reaching effect. Right off the bat It will result In the big social clubs of the city, such as the Kansas City Club, the Athletic Club, the Elks, Country Club and such, closing their bars on Sunday. They also must close nights at 1 o'clock. More than that, it will mean, If the law is en forced, the passing of the "lid club." Must Take Out Saloon Licenses. The police commissioners said last night they had not received notice of the decision yet. But as soon as they got it they would see that it was complied with to the letter. That will mean that each club must come before the board and take the chance of getting a saloon license In the name of Its secretary 'or some offi cer. It will mean the clubs must pay the regular saloon license and come under the Jurisdiction of the police commissioners. If a man has a habit of getting hot under the collar he should quit wear ing collars. HEALTH fS WEALTH Favorite Prescriptions Which Have Been Used as a Preventive As Well As a Cure.

The mean, sneering, contemptible attitude of the Kansas City Star as re flected through its asinine reporters In dealing with all things concerning the Negro is simply a case of "storing up wrath" that will break on Its head "some sweet day by and by."

HATRED THAT WAR BREEDS Remarkable Changes in Pleasant Re lation Caused by Hostilities Be tween Nations. Hato and war must go hand in hand. You couldn't go out nnd shoot your neighbor to death unless you first hated him. If circumstances should force you to Buch a thing you would speedily, by a sort of self-hypnosis, work yourself into a state of mind where you honestly believed that kill ing was entirely too good for him. This is just what tho nations in Eu rope havo done, writes Martin Mar shall In Leslie's. We read now how the Germans have despised the Eng lish In the past and how the French have for 44 years longed for revenge on the Germans; of how Belgium hated the kaiser with tho, hatred of fear, and of mutual antagonisms be tween Teuton and Serb. These senti ments wero partly official and conven tional, but mostly imaginary. The people got along pretty well together. Frenchmen did business In Berlin and Germans went holidaying to Paris; London's restaurants were largely manned by Gorman staffs and Russian peasants helped to reap the harvests In Prussia. Educated 'men in each of these nations prided themselves on their familiarity with the languages of the others, and enjoyed their litera ture, art and music. Then came war, and all was changed. Some milllo'hs of men were going to slaughter each other, and Hrst they had to convince themselves that they ought to do it. Tho prelim inary era was of window smashing, street demonstrations, trade boycotts and Imprisonment of Inoffensive na tionals of hostile nations. Then Wag ner's music was tabooed in Russia and Franco; St. Petersburg must havo its name changed to cleanse it from the loathsome Teutonic termination; Eng lish table sauce disappeared from Ber lin restaurants; Paris styles were an athema In Vienna; London poured Munich beer Into the gutters; a Paris magazine started a popular. prize con test for the best substitute name for Eau do Cologne In short, Europe ran the whole gamut of silly, sentimental hysteria preliminary to shooting of suspected spies, the bombardment of peaceful villages, the killing of women and children, the "strict military reprisals" that always occur In war and always shock the victims and the neutrals. Big Pin Money. Some of tho large dress manufac turers In New York, In whose factories a considerable amount of draping must be done, find that their bills for pins frequently run as high as $1,500 i a year. Used only once, the pins are removed and permitted to fall on the floor, where they are swept away. Even if gathered up at the day's close they would be too dirty for use a"gain. A compan?. Just starting in business, proposes to effect a saving In the pin Item by taking all the used pins, and, having cleaned and polished them, re turn them at half what they cost the manufacturers originally. The experl ments to produce a clean, reflnlshed pin entailed over a year's work. It was found that if the pins were gath ered together by using a magnet they made a mark on white fabrics, so this method was discarded. A process has been discovered, however, whereby the satisfactory result was obtained Hot tomato bouillon, 5 cents; hot rhlcken boullllon, 5 cents; hot clam boullllon, 5 cents; hot egg chocolate, 10 cents; hot egg and grnpo Juice, 10 cents.
