CRUMMELL’S THEME The last day’s session of the American Negro Academy was called to order at 10:30 o'clock this morning by the president, Rev. Alexander Crummell. The following pa- rers were read at the morning session “The Obstacles in the Way of the Negro’s Progress in the United States,” by Rev. Matthew Johnson of Philadelphia, and “The Bearing of the New Philosophy of History and the Thecry of Christian Evo- lution on the Destiny and Progress of the Negro Race,” by William H. Ferris of New Haven, Conn. Rev. Mr. Anderson's address was a rec- ord of the existence of the negro in the United States since the war. He began by stating that before the war the African was regarded simply as a beast, in the same class as gocds or chattels, with no rights which a white man was bound to respect. The whites who were most friend- ly to the negro had the idea that he could receive only the simplest instruction. In the last thirty years, the speaker said, no less than 30,000 negroes had met martyrs’ graves simply because they dared to e cise their rights as citize L ings in the south were dealt with exhaustive way, and the declara- | /i $2.00 Gilt Chairs... .$1.15 $4.00 Gilt Chairs. ...$2.50 $3.75 Gilt Chairs... .$2.40 $4.50 Gilt Chairs... .$2.80 $5.00 Gilt Chairs... .$3.60 And so on up to the $15 Chairs.

William H. Ferris’ paper dealt with the obstacles which prevented the negro from reaching the top and how these obstacles should be removed. What the negro needs, he said, is the aggressiveness, the courage, the indomitable will and energy of the and powerful.” $12 coats, $5.

On the American del- lar is the motto, ‘In God We Trust,’ and the more dollars one possesses the more God he has. “They tell us that we must get our for- tune, and intelligence will follow. However, it requires intelligence to make and amass a fortune. “The negro problem will never be solved until both the white and black come up to Christ's standard. Just so long will rac prejudice exist in the mind of the Amer can, it being born in the blood, as the negro is regarded as inhuman.” It was the idea of the speaker that the development of the negro was not to be accomplished by going outside of ‘himself. It was rot by any assimilation with other races. “We should take the best which is in us,” he said, ‘and make the most of it. We should imitate the virtues of the Anglo- Saxon race, its tenacity of purpose, with- out any vices which it may possess.’ If we remain patient and courageous, the negro problem will solve itself.” A discussion followed the reading of the two papers, when the session adjourned for lunch, which was served by the committee.

Grimke and Prof. Kelly Miller, members of the executive com- e of the American Mind Toward Negro Intellect." He spoke for about an hour and a half, and had the closest attention of his auditors. The formation of the academy, he de- clared, was the first step the colored men of America had taken toward the difficult work of cultivating the intellect and fos- tering refinement in the colored race. A history was given of the work of the negro in the United States. From this the speak- er drew the inference that there fs no need for the negro to attend a manual labor school, as he is a laborer by nature. The great need of the negro is to have his laber properly exploited and a larger share of the wealth his toil creates, * “The American mind, it can be seen,” said the speaker, “has barred the entrance of the negro {1.to the grand vestibule of art, literature, science and philosophy. It is no® lack of intellect which has been the difficulty. The difficulty with the Ameri- can mind, be it noticed, is repugnance to negro cultivation. There has been no re- pugnance to negro drudgery, no repug- nance to the negro’s menial service, no repugnance to the negro cook, servant, seullion. It is this attitude, this repui- sive, this forbidding attitude of the Amer- ican mind toward the negro intellect which forces the negro In this land to both rec- ognize and to foster the talent and capacity of hig own race.” “Speeds, sur ooo hie QoeQoo oro doedre foros “Prices are ai Dinner Sets, $15, $18 & $22.50. ate your tal Ye es patterns in Doulton and Old Blue Chiza—the h mest ever exbibited tn ety.
