ADVANCE OF THE NEGRO RACE Rev. Philip Aklla Habert Lectares to I.arg-a Audience at Zlon Bap tist Church. Rev. Philip Aklls Hubert, a noted colored preacher snd educator of ths south and financial secretary of Morgan college at Lynchburgh, Va., and the Paul Quinn col lege of Waco, Tex., occupied the pulpit at the Zion Baptist church, '2215 Orant street, Inst evening. Rev. Mr. Hubert has been in the city about two weeks and will stay two weeks longer In the interests of tit) Institutions he represents. Mr. Hubert, who Is an eloquent speaker and a strik ing example of what education can do for the colored race, chose for his theme last evening "Qod and the Colored Race; or an Argument Showing . Very . Palpably and Clearly that the Colored Race Is as Closely Identified with God as Any Other Race." Mr. Hubert said In part: "The progress of the race Is consequent upon Identical creation. We must view ths race from a religious and moral stand point; we must consider it from physiog nomical, anatomical and ethnological standpoints; this Is absolutely necessary to get an intelligent' understanding of the question. The negro question is not at all a serious ore. In spite of all that has hap pened antagonistic to Its progress. "One of the prims essentials Is that the race must take cognisance of Its personal advancement; then the advancement of the race us a whole will follow as a natural consequence. The longevity of ths race establishes ,lts permanancy as a race. It matters not what social causes msy be In jected Into the race. It does not deteriorate, but rather It strengthens through the Ares of adversity. ' "All things ronuldered there la no paral lel la lUstory to compare with ths negro's progress during the past forty years, and the tendency Is, with the present Industrial Improvements, the race will continue to Im prove at an Increased ratio. ' This is my honest conviction." A large attendanoe listened to Mr. Hub ert's remarks. HEMINCS MARES ANSWER If you have any thing to trade, advertise It In 'the This for That 'column of The Doe. . t.s City Treasurer Defends Tax Van Condemned by Eeal Estate Exchange. SAYS IT WAS NEEDED WITH SOME MEMBERS Tells of Forcible Methods Necessary la Collecting Taxes of Real Estate Man Who Vowed Vengeance Against Treasurer. Action by the Real Estate exchange In declaring the exhibition of City Treasurer Hennlngs' collection van In "bad taste and entirely unnecessary'' has called forth a trenchant reply from Mr. Hennlngs. He asserts that his method of inducing the prompt payment of taxes has produced $2,000,000 for ths city during the last few years. and declares the action of tho ex change was brought about through per sonal Ill-feeling on the part of some of the leading members whom he found it necessary to coerce Into paying their taxes. The treasurer withholds the names of the tax shirkers In the exchange, but says they will be furnished if desired. While not deeming it advisable to give out the facts concerning the episode which Treasurer Hennlngs believes to be at the bottom of the present criticism, his rec ords show' that In 1901 he collected personal taxes delinquent for twelve years from one of the men who is an officer of the exchange at this time, a distress warrant being used, coupled with the threat of attachment of personal property and re moval In the van. After this point had been reached the real estate man went to the city hall, paid the taxes and, shaking his flat under the nose of the treasurer, declares he would "fix him." Hennlngs Explains the Case.' In the opinion of Treasurer Hennlngs the long-delayed attempt to "fix" has been started. The treasurer gave out the fol lowing statement defending his position: In 1901 the Omaha Real Estate exchange went on record as endorsing my system of collecting delinquent taxes. On April 21. IM), the Omaha Commercial club, in a letter, said: "Motion unani mously adopted endorsing your course In pressing collections of delinquent taxes and hope you will continue your effort in this direction with energy and success." On May 5, 1903, the good people of Omaha re-elected me with a majority of 3,128 votes, thereby endorsing my plan and saying, "Continue to do your duty, and, if neces sary collect with the van." I have been city treasurer for over four years, during which time the "van was on the streets for twenty-two days, with the following result: Under the former treasurers 55 per cent of personal taxes were collected, while under my plan 95 per cent. This is an Increase of 40 per cent, which would amount to $160,000 on the 1904 levy and would be a saving of almost 2,00u,000 dur ing a period of ten years, if the Interest on the oasis of 25 per cent Is included. As every other large i city, Omaha has some tax shirkers. These are the people whom I have been after, and the kicking comes largely from this class. Some of the most prominent members of the Real Estate exchange have refused to pay back taxes until I attached their goods, and at that time they threatened they would fix me. If desired, names will be furnished. ' Ninety per cent of the annual tax levy Is appropriated and set aside before the tax list reaches my office, and the warrants issued monthly are registered for Interest at 7 per cent, for the reason that the cash Is not In the treasury; therefore, In order to stop this 7 per cent and get the city on a cash basis, It becomes necessary to use my method snd enforce collections of de linquent taxes. In conclusion would state that several members of the Real Estate exchange called upon me yesterday and today and stated that had they been present they would have fought the passage of the reso lution. KILPATRICK'S TENT RUINED Wind Demolishes the Giant "Top" and Great Show Will Be Given Free at Krug- Park. Ths short stormy spell Wednesday after noon cost the Kllpatrick Bros, show over $1,000 a minute. Their mammoth tent, fifty-five feet In height, was almost com pletely demolished, and the dancing poles and fixtures were smashed like so much matchwood. The guy ropes parted snd the whole tent was only saved from being blown away by the center pole, which stood fast. The storm lasted about four minutes snd In that time canvass men, performers snd all available men were commandeered into service. They at tempted to hold down the stake ropes, but tha wind swept them from their hold, and It wss only by the merest chance that no one was Injured. The tent la on a hillock at the Krug Park grounds snd had no protection from ths wind, srid In a Jiffy the great structure was rent from Job to bottom. The tent is tha largest circus tent In the world. As Kllpatrick Bros, had made a contract with ths Krug Park people to give tha per formances, all that could be done at so Short a notice was done and performances given In Krug Psrk arena. Time did not permit tha loop-ths-loop to bs erected and this wss rot given last night, but It Is programed for tonight's performance. Out side of the cost of the tent Kllpatrick Bros, lose some $3,000 by having to give their performance free of charge. There will be no extra admission to the Krug Park grounds. FONTANELLE S0CIAL SESSION Club Listens to Some Speeches and Indulges In Light Refresh, menta. The Fontanelle club met Wednesday at 1320 Farnam street, third floor, front, don't ring. It was a social session, but whether in cele bration of Tom Blackburn's first night out since his return irom California or the home-coming of Wattles and Brome from the Chicago convention was not made quite clear from the proceedings. All thres of the gentlemen named acknowledged the compliment from the club when they were called upon to utter words. R. BT Howell called the assembly to or der and introduced ..Lieutenant Governor McGtlton as the chairman of the evening. The lieutenant governor, having the honor thrust upon him unexpectedly, found him self short of words Ji which to express his gratitude and made'an Immediate draft on the eloquence- that bfr-knew was concealed behind the negligee shirts In the room. Ills first call was for O. W. Wattles, who came forward and expatiated at length upon the work of the Nebraska delegates and visi tors at the Chicago convention. Inci dentally Mr. Wattles declared that one of the objects- of the Fontanelle club was to bring together "the better element", of the republican party in Douglas county. "Let us hope that we will always be represent ing that which Is best Ip the party and that we will always be fighting that faotion which represents ths worst of the party." he said. Mr. Blackburn was the next member to talk; but he said very little, confining his remarks to an expression of his gratitude for the welcome given him on his return from California with a wife. Harry Brome, who came next, sought to Impeach the testimony of his reoent col league, Mr. Wattles, by declaring that the Fontanelle club represents no faction In the republican party. After Mr. Brome's speech a fifteen-minute recess was taken for refreshments, which consisted of sandwiches and claret lemonade. About half of those present took sdvantage of the recess to get away, and consequently when Howard Kennedy, Jr., and W. F. Ourley spoke about half of the benches were empty. Mr. Ourley said he considered his membership in the club s, badge of honor, for the reason that the organisation stands for the principles of supporting and Voting for the entire repub lican ticket after It Is nominated. - woman a chance of hiding herself.

Blsgard, a youth of tender years and residing at 606 South Sixteenth street, after losing $62 In a resort last night, came to the conclusion that six months In a city doee not necesnarlly mean a knowledge of the world snd the ways of the women that inhabit it. -Blsgard's home is in Harlan, la., and his knowledge of the peculiarities of the Third ward women was vague. He saw them as he passed their windows, they looked so charming, so entrancing, so in nocent. One of them Gertie Washington smiled at him and his fate was sealed.
