BIG CELEBRATION
AT PITTSBURG
Notable Event In Smoky Giiy
Witnessed by Thousands.
ECHOES OF FREEDOM HEARD.
Emancipation Day Exercises War
Crowded With Many Brilliant
Scenes, Which Showed the Prog res
of the Race Along Many Lines Dr.
W. B. Johnson's Stirring Address.
At the recent emancipation celebra
tion in rittsburg, which was witnessed
by more than 7,000 people. Dr. W.
Bishop Johnson, the celebrated Bap
tist divine from Washington, was the
principal speaker. The occasion was
one of the most notable ever conduct
ed by the colored people of Pittsburg,
and the mammoth parade of floats,
representing every trade and craft,
with citizens in automobiles and car
riages, was a picturesque sight
Mayor Mage and other prominent
citizens of Pittsburg made addresses,
and the whole affair was under the
direction of a committee of well
known colored citizens, headed by
Bev. Dr. R. C. Fox, pastor of Carron
Street Baptist church.
Dr. Johnson's address was & com
prehensive review of tile slave Ques
tion, particularly In i& bearing upon
the dvll war, and a strong and force
ful exposition of the duties and re
sults of emancipation, upon the life of
the Negro race and the American na
tion. Dr. Johnson laid down the great
principle hat morai right is omnipo
tent and no man or government of
men can resist it
Just what emancipation meant to
tfie Negro, coming as he did fresh
from the horrors of slavery, was de
scribed in a vivid and convincing
manner by the speaker, wbo was like
wise iempTiatlc in enunciating certain
obligations and duties his new found
freedom imposed upon him. Dr. John
son's speech was, in part, as follows:
Viewed is to Its results, the femxneipa
tlon proclamation was an. oversbadowias
ana glorious success. It, united thefrtesda
of the Union. It tbrewinto flespairfnc
forces new life. It brought Into the ar
mies of the Union as by magic ISO.COO sol
diers from the 'enfranchised race. JCt was
the deathblow to slavery. It was the fin
ishing stroke of the rebellion.
The Immortal Lincoln was in no sense
a smart erer. Ha was a profound resoa
er, learned in the law. He studied and
understood the constltntioa of bis coun
try. He did not issue m. proclamation for
Tnrt or to h YtantnA t
He did not toy with .the mighty con
cerns of the republic. His hvery act was
governed by the slncerest convictions,
guided by conscience. He was f"'n"My
a statesman, and patriotism and heroism
were his crowning virtues.
The emancipation of the slaves was the
most Important and forreaching as wen
as the most equitable and humane fact
recorded In. American history. Nothing
has occurred in the long and eventful his
tory of the republic like the breaking of
slavery shackles from the souls and bodies
Of the American bondsmen.
It affected the American people legally,
morally, sociologically and spiritually aa
no other thing had done or has done
since. It was the culmination of a long
series of struggles between national self
respect national purity of conscience and
national greed and selfishness.
Forty-seven years have elapsed. The
American Negro, while hampered by prej
udice, poverty and proscription, has had
time enough to show himself a blessing
or a curse. Have the conditions of free
dom exhausted him? Has he assimilated
as a man and citizen? Does he antago
nize the Just Ideals and traditions of the
American people?
He is interwoven into the being of the
nation, in its llfeblood. its homes, its
schools, its Industries and enterprises, its
victories and defeats. Its legislatures
cannot enact a law. its courts render a
decision, its political parties gain a vlo
tory. without considering him.
He Is a permanent element of American
life, not dangerous to her well being, be
cause he is a Christian and progressive;
not vicious, because he is industrious and
rapidly becoming Intelligent, not a pau
per, because he Is a taxpayer on over
900.000,000 in property
One of the most essential elements of
racial strength the Negro must have now
is an exalted race pride. The Negro wbo
Is ashamed of his race ought to be driven
out and marked as a traitor.
It should be the highest ambition of
every black man to Invest the race with
honor, dignity and power. We have noth
ing of which to be ashamed. Forty-seven
years of freedom read like a romance.
The Negro has no primrose path for the
future. He must rise on his merits every
time. He must make himself an indis
pensable factor in American life and con
tribute the best citizenship and sterling
worth Into the community in which he
Uvea.
He must simply compel the community
to recognize bis honesty and Industry not
by a servile, bat in band policy, which U
more hypocritical than real and which
costs TiiiTt self respect and the respect of
all his neighbors, but a manly, straight
forward course that shows him to be re
liable, honest industrious, virtuous and
law abiding.
"We must organize In business, religion,
society, against lawlessness and. crime.
for the protection of home, church, polit
ical right and every other thing that la
sacred to the man and the citizen.
St. Barnabas Men's Guild Reopens.

THE BOUQUET OF WINE.
blsmarck Wanted Champagne Barrels
as War Indemnity.
Germany's governmental policy is to
encourage the exports of brain, labor,
sunshine, air and water. There is
nothing in sugar, in alcohol, but car
bon, gathered from the air. but hydro
gen and oxygen gathered from the
rainwater, transformed by the sun
into beet plants, grown In fields, tilled
and wielded by band, the beet pulp
being transformed by other bands and
skilled knowledge into sugar and al
cohol. Denmark and Holland export
butter which takes nothing from the
soil. The French Import Asiatic silk,
weave it at Lyons and export the fin-
ished product They export wine by,
analysis 87 per cent water. 10 per cent
alcohol and 0.04 per cent aroma and
bouquet Water and alcohol take noth-1
log from the soil, but the aroma makes
the wine worth from $10 a pound
down.
In the peace negotiations between
Bismarck and the French in 1871 It
was not the money indemnity, it was
not the loss of territory, that pro
longed negotiations. Bismarck be
thought hlmtelf to demand 5,000 empty
old champagne barrels. Impregnated
t with the aroma, the bouquet producing
ferment and this the French reruseo.
They had consented to pay $1,000,000,
000. they broken heartedly gave up Al
fdee and Lorraine, but the bouquet of
their priceless wines Bismarck should
not have, and in the end they compro
mised on five barrels. The French
were instinctively governed by super
nal common sense. Engineering Mag

Edison's Kinetophone Capable of Re
producing Opera.
Thomas A. Edison recently gave a
demonstration at his laboratory in
New Jersey of the "talking moving
pictures." It was successful, but he
thfrifc be needs one year more to so
Improve the mechanism that grand
opera can be reproduced.
As finally explained tie phenomenon
of a moving picture of actors whose
movement of lips was reproduced in
speech as on a stage was this:
There are two Instruments, one pho
tographic and one iphonograptilc, one
giving the moving lifelike picture and
the other accompanying tveryv move
ment with the words. Both macfilnes
were synchronized, "locked" together,
like the sending and receiving instru
ments in close telegraphy. Thfclr con
nection was Instantaneous. The mov
ing picture talked.
The camera was operated fifteen feet
from the screen. The recording pho
nograph is eight feet back of the
Screen. The difficulty of having films
and sounds correspond was overcome
by having the phonograph controlled
by an electromagnet operated top. the.
moving picture operator. And at the
time he begun cranking the films to
the speed of sixteen pictures a second
the phonograph was oeued by the
electromngii-t.

weighs less and has sufficient stability,
therp having been but one failure re
corded due to faulty construction. It
can be built in one-half the time re
quired for a brick shaft, and once
constructed the concrete shaft requires
practically no repairs.
Elizabeth's Keform.
Queen Elizabeth In the last year of
ner reign was much concerned as to
the expenses of the royal household.
According to a document in the public
record office, she ordered a comparison
to be made between the expenditure
incurred in the third and the forty
third years of her reign, when "yt was
found that in bread, beare. wyne,
wood, coles, wax lights, torches, tal
low lights and meetes and other allow
ances of Incidents, necessaries, car
riages and wages 12.000 ($60,000) per
Annum at least more was spent and no
sufficient warrant for the increase.
The queene's majestie being informed
of this difference said: I will not suf

crease that no prince ever before me
did. But my speedie order for re
formaclon shall satisfy my loving sub
