THREE YEARS LATE
A Train That Won tha Behind Tlmo
Record Medal.
A train of a railway system In tha
oath-west once arrived at its destina
tion nearly three years late. The ch
camstances were these:
The train left Bolivar, just across
Galveston bay finxn Galveston, on
8ept 8, 1000, and was caught in the
treat storm that so nearly destroyed
the Texan city. Bolivar Is seventy
flve miles from Beaumont, which was
the point of the train's destination.
Before the train had traveled far -on
tts journey it was caughtin the storm.
Thirty miles of the track were washed
away, and the train was left stranded
on a sandy waste. Many persons who
Bred on Bolivar peninsula were saved
from death by taking refuge in the
train. After the storm subsided they
Talked to Bolivar with the passengers,
but the abandoned train was left oa
the prairie.
The storm bankrupted the railway,
and no effort to rescue the engine and
tars was made until 1903. Had not
the road suffered so seriously in that
storm the property would have proved
of great value a few months .later,
when oil was struck at Beaumont. In
1803, however, the road underwent re
pairs, when the train was drawn Into
Beaumont, where It was greeted by a
cheering crowd. New York .press. ,

One of the most interesting and most

This room Is close to the secretary's
office and looks southward to the Po

looming up with stately effect at the
left. Thursday of each week is set
apart for the diplomatists, who are re

BALZAC'S TROUSERS.
What the Author Meant When Ha Told
the Tailor "No Feet."
In a village In the heart of Touraini
there lives an old man whose pride II
is that he once had the honor of mak
ing a pair of trousers for Balzac. Thi
old tailor delights to tell of his meet,
ing with the distinguished Frenchman.
When the tailor got to the chateau
where Balzac was staying he found
him in the garden at work on a novel
He was so busy that the tailor waited
in silence. Many sheets of paper, cov
ered with fine writing, lay around him,
He would write a' spell, then start
wildly about, and then go at it again
as if he knew that a world was wait
lng for his words.
After standing near and watching
the great man awhile the tailor at lasl
felt that be must interrupt Balzac is
order to get his measure for the trou
sers. Balzac was extremely good na
tured smiled as the tailor measured
him, but spoke but once.
"No feet," said he as the tailor fin
ished his measurements. Then he
turned to his work.
The worthy tailor had no Idea at aO
what this meant, but for some reason
be had not courage enough- to inter
rupt the novelist again to ask. How-
ever, the tailor chanced to meet a
servant on his way out and of him in
quired what M. Balzac meant by "No
feet."
"Oh," responded the servant, "M.
Balzac wants his trousers made with--out
any openings at the bottom so that
he can sit and write without having
to put on 8llppem." Harper's Weekly.

NEW MOVEMENT
BEGINS WORK
Plan and Scope of the Asso
ciation Briefly Told.
WILL PUBLISH THE CRISIS.
Review of Causes Which Lad to tha
Organization of the" Association In
New York and What Its Policy Will
Be Career and Work of Professor
W. E. B. Du Bole.
Br FRANKUN F. JOHNSON.
The problem of adjusting the differ
ences between the heterogeneous
masses in the United States so that
each man win enjoy equality before
tha law and equality of opportunity
for himself and his children has agi
tated the minds of statesmen oft and
on since 1770.
The overthrow of England's sover
eignty In the United States and the
establishment of a democratic form of
government was the first. The exist
ence of slavery, the agitation agalast
It and Its final extinction was another
step In the recognition of the brother
hood of man.
The. enfranchisement of the Negro
and the abrogation, of many of the
W. X. B. DU BOIS, PH. D.
laws preventing the Negro from fol
lowing various fields of activity were
steps in recognition of the principles of
democracy.
The disfranchisement laws, Jho
crow measures, restricted school facil
ities for the race, are efforts to undo
the start made for the extension to all
of what many are pleased to term
"Jeffersonlan principles."
With the curtailment of the rights
of the Negro and a steadily growing
race consciousness as well as knowl
edge of public affairs and the growing
economic independence of the race
has come the conviction that the spir
it of democratic principles is no lets
for the colored man than for the
white.
A number of white and colored men,
all firm believers In the principles of
democracy and strong opposers to
all temporizing with social prejudices
and its manifestation in dlscrlmlnat
g laws, have organized the National
Association For the Advancement of
Colored People, with offices in the
Evening Post building, 20 Vesey
street. New York.
The need of such an association can
be best gleaned from an address which
one of its leading promoters, Oswald
Garrison Vlllard, editor of the New
York Evening Post, delivered at the
recent meeting In New York of the
National Negro Business league. Said
Mr. Villard:
My friends of the Business league,
do not let the historian of the future
say that In this money making age the
colored American became so engross
ed in the accumulation of means and
the establishment of business as to
forget those higher things without
which be cannot hope to succeed and
rise to great usefulness, to be really
worthy of his heritage of American
citizenship.
"Do not forget that, while every ef
fort must be spent In fortifying our
selves in every community by busi
ness and material success, equal effort
must be devoted to that of far greater
movement, the insistence upon the
Negro's equal and political rights in
every place and at all times.
"Anything short of absolute equality
before the law is slavery.
"My friendsthis republic cannot ex
ist frqif slave, half free, any more to
day than it could In the time of Abra
ham Lincoln."
Dr. W. E. B. Da Bois, the eminent
'authority on racial questions, has been
engaged as secretary of the associa
tion. Professor Da Bois is a native of
Massachusetts. After graduating from
risk university 'In 18SS he entered
Harvard university, receiving the' de
gree of bachelor of arts in 1S90 aid
the degree ot master of arts the fol
lowing year. .
He was awarded a fellowship.-aad,

ed the' degree of doctor of philosophy
by Harvard I? 1S33. He did some spe
cial research work for the University
of Pennsylvania, after which he went
to Atlanta university to take charge
of the department of economics -and
sociology.
Dr. Du Bois Is the author of "Soul
of Black Folk," a history- of John
'Brown, "The SupnAsslon ot the Slave
Trade," "The Philadelphia Negro" and
many pamphlets on (he race question.
When he resigned from the profes
sorship to accept the position of di
rector of publicity, and research for
the National Association For the Ad
vancement of Colored People the
board of trustees of Atlanta univer
sity. In accepting his resignation, paid
him the following glowing tribute:
"We accept with regret the resigna
tion, of W. E. Burghardt Dn Bois,
Ph. D from the professorship of eco
nomics and history at Atlanta univer
sity. "For thirteen years he has served
this institution with great ability and
devotion. He has proved himself a
careful scholar, a firm disciplinarian
and a thorough and Inspiring teacher.
"The charm of his personality and
his prevailing good cheer have added
much Uoijtbe, enjoyment of life In the
schoolliirfiay.j j .
"UnjfihisjgJdan'ce, the department
of ecotafiilckj aijd 'history has been
greatly! (strengthened and has brought
Atlanta university wide recognition
among scholars.
"We can only hope that his new field
of labor will give him larger oppor
tunity for the exercise of his excep
tional powers for the benefit of the
Negro race and of humanity."
The association will begin the publi
cation of a magazine, the Crisis, the
1st of November. Its aim each month
will be to record every Important hap
pening and movement in the world
which bears on the great problem of
Interracial relation and especially.those
which affect the Negro American.
The magazine will be the organ of
no cliques or party find will avoid per
sonal rancor of all sorts.
' Dr. Du Bois will be editor in chief.
His assistants will Include Professor
Kelly Miller of Howard university, Os
wald Garrison Vlllard. Charles Edward
Bussell, William Stanley Bralthwaite,
poet and writer; J. Max Barber and
Mrs. Dunlop Maclean.
ANTI-LYNCHING SOCIETY
ORGANIZED IN BOSTON.
Afro-American Women Unite For Ao
tivs Campaign Against Injustice.
An antl-lynchlng society composed of
Afro-American women has been organ
ized in Boston. The purpose of the
new association Is to call the attention
of the legal authorities to the too fre
quent lynching of Innocent citizens.
It Will also make investigations as to
the cause of such crimes with a view
of apprehending aud baring the guilty
punished aci-ordliiR to law Instead of
mob rule.
The promoters of the movement met
at the residence of Mr I C Parrlsh,

Among others who took part In the
organization are Mrs. Carrie O. Reed,
Mrs. A. BIsbee. Mrs. A. Russell, Mrs.
E. F. Sport. Mrs. B Anderson and Miss
E. Jewell.
The harmony of thought, the true
principle for vindication of their wom
anhood and the race, exhibited in the
efforts for the public meeting and Its
-success, with the triumph gained over
the press, cemented a tie between
them which has caused them to press
forward with greater energy to rem
edy, if not lessen, the continued evils
perpetrated against the race.
Already they have plans formulated
for a big antl-lynchlng meeting In tho
near future and are assured support
by some of the best leading white
women and men of the country.
