General Information Concerning
the Afro-American.
TAKEN FROM OUR VARIOUS EXCHANGES ,
Showing the Progress of the Various Unu
of Human Endeavor Being Acconv
ptlshtd by the Race.
There is no national evil to the over
coming of which the leaders among us
should give more earnest and honest
attention than to that of lynching.
Negroes arc the chief victims of the
mob, and the crime of which these vie
tims arc accused by their murderers is
one that is charged up against the en
tire race as a moral defect. It is said
that the negro docs not comprehend the
duty of chastity, and that he knows no
moral restraints when his merely animal
passions arc aroused.
The friends of. the race refute these
false charges by pointing to such great
negro organizations as the A. M. E.
church and inviting the most rabid negro-hater
to deny that this grcat church
ins prouuecu men, irom us uisnops
down, whose teachings and lives fait to
set before the people the purest morals
in precept and example. We have re
sisted with vigor such exceptional refer
ences to our religious organizations as
have been made by Ridpath, Hoffman
and r few others, and have ever stoutly
stood as the champion of those who re
gard our churches as centers of high
moral influence.
Mr. S. Coleridge Taylor, of London,
the semi-African .musical prodigy,
stands alone in his class as the foremost
operatic writer of the age. The race
can well afford to feel proud of Mr.
Taylor, and rejoice in his splendid
achievements.
William Clarence Hucston, of Lex
ington, recently received a communica
tion from Chicago University, inviting
him to he present at the annual banquet
of his class to he held there in May and
make a speech, responding to the toast,
"The South." Mr. Hueston will be the
only colored participant
R. J. Reynolds, the well-known to
bacco manufacturer of Durham, N. C,
has .subscribed $5000, one-half- of the
sum needed, for the construction and
operation of a hospital for Afro-Americans.
The hospital will be located at
Winston-Salem, N. C. The Afro-Americans
of North Carolina have raised the
other $5000 among themselves. The
hospital will be operated in connection
with the Slater industrial school.
The principal speaker in the debate
between Yale and Harvard last week
was Roscoe Conkling Bruce, -non of the
late Senator B. K. Bruce, of Mississippi,
whose widow is now in charge of the
woman's department at the Tuskegee
Industrial School in Alabama. Young
Bruce, who is of colored parentage, has
a remarkable gift of eloquence, as well
as a brilliant mind, and his color does
not seem to be any obstacle to his per
sonal popularity, or scholastic success..
He was the president of his class at the'
Exeter preparatory, school; he is the
vice-president of his class at Harvard,

The last meeting of the Paul Laurcnc
Dunbar Literary Society was well at
tended, but the debate to have taken
place had to be postponed on account of
the absence of some of the principals.
Kriss Kringlc has tirotniscd to visit
the A. M. E. Zion church. Thirteenth

ing, on which occasion he will be glad
to meet all of his young friends and his
old ones as well.
The Paul Laurence Dunbar Literary
Society held another very interesting
meeting on last Thursday evening, on
which occasion a very interesting de
bate was conducted on the subject: "Re
solved, That nubile opinion has nullified
the fourteenth amendment to the con
stitution." Earlv in 1901 one of our old pioneers,
who after traveling many years on the
matrimonial sea had the misfortune to
be left alone, will again take unto him
self a helpmeet. It is his intention to
spend the honeymoon In the genial c'i
tnatc of California. Wc wish him much
joy in his new venture, and a long and
happy life.

have been numerous dinner parties, and

The Christmas exercises at the A. M.
E. Zion church consisted of an enter
tainment by the Sunday school scholars

Kriss Kringlc visited the scene and re
membered all present in a very sub
stantial way. On .Tuesday evening the
choir, assisted by some of their friends,
presented a very fine programme, after
which refreshments were served and a
very pleasant social evening spent.
The old-fashioned quilting bee at
Mount Olivet Baptist church was well
attended, and called back pleasant mem
ories to those ol mature years who were
in attendance, and gave the younger
members a view of how their mothers
and fathers enjoyed themselves. A large
number were present, ami opportunity
was furnished for "work and gossip"
and the partaking of seasonable "goo."
cheer."
On Friday evening the Bethel A. M.
E. church opened their fair. A bounti
ful array of useful as well as ornamental
articles was displayed in a manner cal
culated to tempt the rash mortals that
ventured near to empty their pockets,
while the number of handsome and car-
nest attendants were ever willing to as
sist in making selections, The fair will
last Saturday and Monday evenings, and
will wind up with 11 Christmas tree on
Monday night.

The efficient committee made the event
one long to be remembered by their
guests.
The fair held at the Bethel A. M. E.
church on the 21st, 22d and 24th huts,
was well patronized, and offered excel
lent opportunities for securing hand
some articles for holiday presents, and
at the same time helping a worthy
cause. The fair ended with a Christmas
tree on Monday evching. On Wednes
day evening the announcement that the
most handsome lady in Portland would I nortli west comer Tenth and Everett
be on exhibition drew a large crowd to'etieutx, Portland, carrion u full line of
the Bethel church, on which' occasion
the pastor fulfilled his promise to unveil
me oeiie t,oeiij 01 tiic city. An inter
esting programme was presented, after
which refreshments were served bv the
committee in charge.
One of the most touching instances
of self-sacrifice in the matter of giving
Christmas gifts came to our notice the
other day. A little girl, 11 years old,
the daughter of a widow who was com
pelled to be away all tlay at service, left
5 cents a day for the little one to get a
quart of milk, to answer with a loaf of
bread for her lunch and dinner, She,
wanting to give her mother a Christmas
present, and having no oiher way to get
any money, would get a pint of milk and
a ticket, thus managing to save '5 cents
every other day, so that when Christmas
came she bought a handsome handker
chief, and telling her mother that it was
not much, but all she had, presented her
with it.
The United States transport Thyra,
whicu returned to this port alter an ab
sence of about three months on a tryi
to Manila, brought back three of our
caucus who had been engaged in otii
cial capacity, viz., Mr. lienj. Uayles,
steward; Mr. Harry Miller' and Mr.
Green, first and second cooks. They
report a very pleasant voyage on the
whole, although they saw some few day
of rough weather. f The ship will return
to Manila in about a week, when we
understand that the same parties expect
to return with her. In regard t'o ths
natives of the Philippines, they report
lint they consider that they have not
been treated as they should have been
by the Americans, as the natives that
nicy saw appeared to be tractable and
intelligent, and some of them said that
they wanted the Americans to be friends
of theirs, but were not willing to five
up their country and all rights to for
eigners. They also stated that in the
main they had far more liberty under
the Spanish rule than they have en
joyed since the occupancy of the islands
by the United States. The white Amer
icans in Manila treat the natives as the
Southerner treats the negro in the
South, seemingly being of the belief
that the natives have no right that a
white man needs to respect.
On the loth inst. Mr. James' Banks
departed this life at the St. Vincent's
hospital in this city, lie was buried on
Friday from llolman's undertaking par
lors. Mr. Banks was a pioneer and a
highly respected citizen, and. while he
had not been a well man for several
years, still his death came as a shock to
many who did not think him seriously
ill. For several years he had suffered
from rheumatism, but several months
ago he accepted a position as cook for
one of the surveying parties in the em
ploy of the Northern Pacific Railroad
Company, and while engaged in that
occupation he was taken sick and came
to Portland. On reaching here, having
a permit from the railroad company to
go to the hospital and receive medical
treatment without any additional ex
pense, he failed to notify any of the
members of Odd Fellows' Society, of
which order he was a member, of his
condition or of his return to the city.
On the same day that he entered the
hospital he died, and the parties in
charge, not knowing that he was identi
fied with any order, or, in fact, being
ignorant that he resided in the city, as
the permit was made out from the sur
veying camp, notified the railroad com
pany, who gave orders to have
him buried at their expense as
one -of their employes, which was
done by Mr. Ilolman, the under
taker, and not one of the members of
the Odd Fellows' lodge was aware of
the sicknes or death of their brother
until after his burial. Mr, Banks was
always a quiet, unobtrusive man, who
would never glvr any one any unneces
sary trouble. He was not a "society
man," preferring solitude or the com
panionship of a few congenial souls .1
