MISSISSIPPI MOB HANGS MAN SARBUS, MISS., Aug. 6.—Howard Pielow, colored, was taken from the county jail by a mob and hanged to a tree just north of town. Officials say he condemned to an attack upon a white woman of this city. Churches, fraternities, the Y. M. and Y. W. C. A. s. Veterans of Foreign Wars, the American Legion and other civic bodies have been asked to co-operate in the reception and have expressed a willingness to do so. Tickets to the entertainment, which will be free, may be secured at the headquarters of the organizations mentioned or at any of the newspaper offices in Harlem. To formulate plans for the event, Col. Arthur Little, commander of the 369th Infantry (old 15th), gave a dinner Friday evening at the regimental headquarters, at 53 West 130th street, which was attended by public-spirited citizens of Harlem. Aside from the officers of the regiment, there were present at the dinner Dr. E. P. Roberts-George W. Harris, Mrs. Edward A. Warren, Fred R. Moore, Ex-Assemblyman Hawkins, Rev. A. C. Garner, Rev. G. M. Oliver, Mr. and Mrs. William M. Kelley and others. In impressing upon those present the importance of the event and the reason all colored Harlem should turn out to greet "The Lion of the Argentine," as Gen. Gourard is affectionately called, he mentioned the recent stand taken by France in regard to her black citizens in that she had refused to foster a color line at the instance of visiting American tourists. It is in the desire of Col. Little to give Gen. Gourard the greatest reception he has received since he has been in America.

Y., WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 8, 1923 FRANCE TO PROTECT ALL HER CITIZENS Threatens Punishment for Americans Drawing the Color Line; Prejudiced Tourists to Be Expelled. PARIS, Aug. 6.—"Foreign tourists, forgetting, they are one man, and the face behind them is the customs and laws, recently in several occasions have strongly manifested their aversion to seeing colored men, born in the French colonies, sit by their side in public places. They even have gone to the length of demanding their expulsion in insulting terms. If such incidents are repeated punishment will be exacted." Thus reads a note issued by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs tonight, which has startled the Anglo-Saxon communities in Paris by its frank and fearless advocacy of the rights Short10c TaxiFare; Held in $10,000 Bail Robert Smith and Thomas Brown Held on Charge of Burglary. A shortage of ten cents in a taxi bill resulted in the capture of Robert Smith, a longhorman, go home, and Thomas Brown, 232 West 120th Street, a machine operator, who had been wanted for burglary. According to Albert Ames, 290 West 130th Street, his tailor shop at 2330 West 1330 Street was broken into on August 9 and clothing belonging to customers valued at $280 was taken away. He reported the loss at the police station. The connection link to the robbery is furnished by George Bornbush, a chaplain, 159 West 143rd Street. Seaborn says that on August 2, at 3 A.M., Smith hailed his cab at 123rd Street and Seventh Avenue and directed him to drive to 123rd Street, southwest corner. Hare Brown got on with two large bundles, he said, and in an entitled manner told him to drive to 128 West 143th Street. Arriving at that address, he said that Brown dismounted and dropped out the bundles, when several ladder dreads full out. On asking for his hire of fifty cents, he said that Brown produced fifty cents, meaning that that was all the money he had, but that he would go inside and bring the balance. Bornbush, he said, never returned, owing him the full sum. Seaborn said that he reported the matter to the police station. Two days later he now both dependants in a treatment of Lenox Avenue and joined them out to Detective Bunl Whitehatcher of the 189th Street station. On talking about the suspicious bundles, a search was made at the address and the clothing from Amor' shop was found. The defendants were held in $10,000 cash, for General Seaborn. Bornbush had carried weapons. Last Posed Photo of the Late President (1) in A. Fargo LATE PRESIDENT AND MRS. WARREN G. HARDING in hight is believed to be their last posed photograph just before they arrived back in the United States from Alaska. Lord Sent Her to Marry Dr. Hayes Rev. William P. Hayes, pastor of Mt. Olivet Baptist Church, one of the largest in the city, was in court last Friday to ask that he be protected from a woman who says the Lord has ordered her to marry him. Dr. Hayes says that the woman, Mrs. Ida Nesbitt, 186 West 143d street, had proposed to him 200 times in the last month. Last week she called at his home 11 times in one day. The climax came Sunday when she climbed into the pulpit, seized him by the head, and yelled to the congregation: "The Lord sent me a dream to marry this here man." She was sent to Bellevue Hospital for observation. Their determination to play Hawaiian music on their ukeleles despite complaints from many residents at 161 West 140th street led two youths before Magistrate McQuade of the Washington Heights Court last week for a hearing on charges of felonious assault. Their victim, Ralph Horton, superintendent of an apartment house at the 140th street address, is now in the Harlem Hospital with a 'bullet wound in the lower part of his back from which he may die. William Scott, 24 years old, of 133 West 140th street, and William De Haven, 22, of 111 West 138th street, are the two accused youth whom Magistrate McQuade held without bail for a further hearing on Friday. Horton told Detective Scott of the West 155th street station that the two youths were persistent in playing the ukeleles in the house after numerous complaints had caused him to urge them to desist. After remonstrating with them twice he walked next door, Horton declared. They followed him, he said, when he returned to the lobby of the apartment home. As he entered the lobby the switchboard burned and he walked over to receive another complaint from an adult resident over the ukelele playing. While his back was turned, Horton charged, Scott drew a movever and shot him. Both defendants were held without bail by Magistrate Macdonald. Arraigned again on Monday morning they were held without bail for a hearing Wednesday morning by Magistrate Simpson. Both men deny having shot Horton. FALL KILLS YOUTH. Ernest Allnaby, 39, of 46 Johns Street, a West Indian, plunged to his death in the afternoon small of 211 Broadway at 11. Walter T. White Blames Maj. Moton James W. Johnson Says N. A. A. C. P. Protested Against Location of the Hospital. A mass meeting of protest against the conditions at the Tukagoe hospital was held at the Salem M. H. Church, 102 West 126th Street, on Sunday afternoon. James Weldon Johnson, the principal speaker, said that the N. A. A. C. P. had protested against the establishment of a segregated hospital from the start, and particularly one located in the South. The protest, he said, was of no avail, but that the association had received assurances from President Harding that an all-colored personnel would be placed there. "In the event of a victory of the Ku Klux Klan, what sort of treatment will the Negro veterans get from prejudiced Southern crackers?" he asked. Mr. Johnson praised the New York World for its efforts on behalf of a colored staff and said that he felt sure that the Klan would be beaten if the fight is kept up. Walter L. White, assistant secretary of the N. A. A. C. P., said that Major Moton was largely to blame in not having fireworm the present state of alfira. Major Moton, he said, had been "too naive, too trustful." Mr. White told of a contract that had been made by the hospital with a white undertaker in the neighborhood, "aggranulating so many corpses a length." He expressed the belief that the Federal Government would finally get in a Negro staff, and hoped that women it did so. It would not act in an apologetic manner, but show a bold gest. A. Philip Randolph of the Moronger declared himself so being against all forms of segregation, and said that the hospital should have been built for veterans, regardless of color, with a mixed staff. "Whatever you have an all-Negro this or an all-Negro that, it is always encouraged that the Negro gets the inferior." Atty. Norman Whaley said that he thought that, because of the necessity of the election, a white staff will be appointed. Whaley, he said, "will follow Randolph. The white South has always trumpeted over the Federal Government." YOU CAN BUY AND SELL MOST ANYTHING IN THE AMSTERDAM NEWS Advises That White Tuskegee Citizen Confer Secretly With Director Him After His Confidential Interview Advises That White Tuskegee Citizen Confer Secretly With Director Him After His Confidential Interview A Washington newspaper has just made public a telegram which it claims was sent by Major Robert Russa Moton, principal of Tuskegee Institute, to C. W. Hare, a member of Senator Powell's committee which has opposed the use of Negro physicians and surgeons at the war veterans' hospital. The telegram, which proves beyond doubt that Major Moton compromised the hospital situation, is as follows: "Advise that Committee from town come at once and with all secrecy to see General Hines, with whom I have just concluded confidential interview. Further advise that Committee get in touch with Senator Underwood, who can be of valuable assistance. Illness prevents my coming to Tuskegee at once." Two days after this telegram was received in Tuskegee it was announced through the Associated Press that the Alabama Ku Klux Committee was in Washington and had conferred with Director Hines. This was last Friday. It was also announced at the time that the Committee was unable to reach a decision with Director Hines. The Committee was composed of Dr. L. W. Johnson who is said to be the direct cause of the exit from Tuskegee of Dr. Kenny; State Senator R. H. Powell, said to be head of the Ku Klux Klan in Tuskegee, and W. W. Campbell, son of the man from whom Dr. Washington purchased the first land for the erection of the institute. Why Major Moton requested that the Committee come to the Capital "with all secrecy to see General Hines" after his "confidential interview" is not known. Neither is it known why the Alabama Senator, who has little respect for Negroes, should be conferred with, unless it is to strengthen the side of the Ku Klux Committee. Those who have seen the Major since he has been in Washington state that he does not look ill and that he has been seen frequently out riding in his car. Word has just been received that Director Hines has announced that he and the Committee have reached a solution of the hospital personnel problem, whereby the control of the institution for veterans is to be vested in a board of trustees, the majority of whose members will be white. The details will be made public later. MRS. PEARL LA VAN ALLEN SENT TO PRISON Mir. Pearl Le. Van. Allen, 208 West 131st street, was sentenced to 30 days in the City Prison when arranged in the Neighbors Court last week charged with entering the home of her former husband, Rev. George W. Allen, 208 West 131st street, and smashing the furniture while he was away. Counsel for Mrs. Allen admitted that Mru. Allen had smashed the furniture, but said that her client had done it because the Rev. Allen refused to pay allamy that had been due. Mrs. Allen was receiving alimony of $8 a week. The sum was formerly $12, but it was reduced to $10 and then to the present figure by the court. It was a part of the $10 alimony that she claimed was owing her. Mrs. Allen was also held in $300 hall for a hearing on August 7 charged with being a fugitive from justice. She is wanted by the New Jersey police. It is charged that she had immoral relations with an italian named Patti in the home of Mrs. Balbeck, of Mendheim, Morris County, N. J. MRS.

Joke Book Author Gets Khux Warning Like Cootie, Book Says, Klaus Attacks the Defenseless. B. Philimon Greene, 246 Wear 16th street, author of a joke book entitled "My Landlord's Dead Gone," awoke on Monday morning to discover on his front door a painted cloth bearing the letters "K. K. K." and also adorned with three leaden bullets. Greene distributes the placing of the sign on his door to a joke about the Ku Klux Klan, published in his book as follows: "The folks who didn't go to war were founding so many organizations that it is a wonder they did not found a college to educate the poor, ignorant cooties." And, believe me, cooties were as thick over there as Democrats are in Georgia; and just as many will jump on a man of the Georgia Democrats will. Moreover, the cooties were just like the Ku Klux Klan. They will you go to sleep before the dust something." Two weeks ago Greene received the following communication algor "In your john book you said that a Klanman and a loo were just alike. The K. K. K. is a full-bloc of American organisation, true the flag, love the country and be the Klan only to God. It is not to be made a target for slurp jokes and contemptible sayings. There is not a Negro who won't rather sit in his lot more than to say each thing about the Klan in the South, and the Klan must be repeated to the North. "We demand that you take your john book all the market in 12 days. This is in your only warning. If you tell so be loud it we will fix you that your Yankee Negro can't help you.

MacClinton Cited; Failed to Pay Alimony Lieut.-Col. Seth B. MacClinton, of the 369th infantry, National Guard, was cited by Justice Lydon Thursday to show cause why he should not be punished for contempt of court for failing to pay his wife, Mia. Amy MacClinton, $20 a week alimony. In asking for the order Mrs. MacClinton said that since December, 1915, when she obtained a separation and $20 a week alimony, her husband has paid her only $1,000. Mrs. MacClinton lives with her daughter at 501 West 214th street. The daughter, who is employed as a secretary, pays $47.50 for their 2-room apartment and her salary is the only source of income. Mrs. MacClinton said she was unable to earn her living. Lieut.-Col. MacClin- ton, on the other hand, according to his wife, has an income of more than $10,000 a year as a member of a law reporting firm which does all the stenographic work of the criminal cases in the Federal Court, receives $500 a year peace time allowance as lieutenant-colonel and has quarters at the armory at a nominal regal.

MORN. 8042 Following information received at this office that immigrants, and Negro immigrants in particular, were being mistreated at Hills Island the Amsterdam News sent a reporter to the island on August 1 to make a special inquiry. On his arrival he, with a number of others from the city's dalles, were taken into the office of the Commissioner, Major Henry Curran. Here they were received with the utmost courtesy by him, and received prompt replies to the questions they asked. Assuring the reporter that he without them to see everything, and had no secrets, Major Curran placed a guide at disposal with orders to take them everywhere. On talking with some of those who have been detained for one reason or another the Amsterdam News reporter heard many tales of dissatisfaction. On further inquiry, it developed, however, that these complaints arose from the fact of detention and not from any discourtesy or ill-treatment on the part of the officials or the attendants. Everyone with whom the reporter came in contact from the Commissioner downwards, was the pink of courtesy. The food served in the great dining room was as good and as well cooked as that on the table of the average New Yorker. Among those who sat down to a dinner consisting of lentil soup, pot roast, potatoes, bread, coffee and rice pudding were some 200 men who were awaiting deportation. These were arrested on warrants, are stowaways, or were charged with illegal entry. Of this number about 20 were colored. All entered for dinner together, and sat where they chose, no attempt being made to separate them or to give the colored once inferior treatment. In the women's quarters the same condition applied, as also in the hospital through which the party was personally conducted by Dr. J. B. Bogena, chief medical officer, a very "SEE courteous and affable gentleman. The buildings throughout were scrupulously clean. This, according to Commissioner Curran, is one of most difficult jobs of all, as many of the immigrants, particularly those from Southern and parts of Central Europe have little or no idea of cleanliness. Blankets are steamed and fumigated every day. The immigrants who complained, naturally expected that on arrival in America they would be expected to land without restrictions, but it is evident that if there were no restrictions the United States would soon be flooded with people from all parts of the world. Some of those who have been detained have been on the island many months, pending decision on their cases in Washington, D.C. August 1 was the month's busiest day, being the first day of the new quota. Seventeen hundred immigrants from three ships—the Orizaba, the America, and the Columbia—were examined and in less than two hours a considerable proportion of the newcomers were on the boat bound for New York City, the whole process of examination being completed with much excitement and evident satisfaction. Such hardships that exist on the island—and naturally to start with one will find it hard in being detained and not being allowed to land—would seem to proceed from the immigration laws, and not from the actions of those whose duty it is to enforce those regulations. The chief hardship, apart from the detention, seems to be caused by the delay in decisions and appeals in Washington, D. C.

FRANCE TO PROTECT ALL HER CITIZENS of the Negro citizens of France against the impudence of American tourists and residents in France. The note was probably called for as the result of a recent disgraceful incident which caused much criticism of American barbarians who would inflict their savage social customs on the French people. Colored cadets from the Freujus Military School, for the training of African officers and non-commissioned officers, were visiting Paris as official guests after joint exercises with the St. Cyr and St. Maixent Military. Colleges. Some seats were reserved for them on sightseeing cars belonging to a tourist agency. Four American barbarians, who had booked for the same ride, objected to the presence of the colored men and refused to take their seats in the car. Certain members of the Chamber of Deputies, including colored deputies, thereupon took up the matter with the foreign office. Tempe Comments. It is learned that the Qual d'Orsay's starting communique last night, saying that if foreign tourists did not quit baiting colored Frenchmen, the government would inflict punishment, had its immediate origin in an incident of several days ago, during a visit of some Americans to the battlefield. A French surgeon, rehomed for his ability, who is a Negro, occupied one of the seats in the big tourista's automobile as it started on the trip to the region of Rheims. Practically all the other 20 occupants were from the United States. side. The result was a strong protest to the foreign office. Deputies Candace and Bousea, both Negroes, have served notice on Premier Ponceau that they will interpolate the government on this issue when Parliament opens. The Tempa tonight devotes an editorial headed, "Prejudice," to the actions of American tourists toward black Frenchmen. "Why must American tourists constantly forget they are not in their own country and that all the usages of that country are not necessarily our usages. Their question of whites and blacks is one for our American friends, and the 'solution' they have found shows that a country can at the same time claim to be democratic and also yield to prejudices. We have nothing to do with the attitude which prevails in America among her citizens. That is not our business. But this is France, and with us the color line is totally unknown. Our forefathers didn't write the Declaration Les Droits de L'Homme (Declaration of the Rights of Man) 'or us to forget its letter and its spirit. "Besides, our lack of discrimination against colored men is not inspired by doctrine. We are sincere about it. The blacks with whom we come into contact come from the French colonies. 'What over their status—citizens, subjects or proteges—they are our compatriots, and we treat them as such. How could it be otherwise when so many of them fought by our side to save France?' The police have been instructed to protect French citizens at all cost, no matter what their color might be. Tourists who disobey this ruling will be expelled.

Six Thousand Fam Victories of Fam Great Enthusiasm As Phil Battle for Supremacy a Last Sunday Afternoon Six Thousand Fans Cheer Brilliant Victories of Famous Lincoln Giants Great Enthusiasm As Philadephians and New Yorkers Battle for Supremacy at the Catholic Protectory Last Sunday Afternoon in Sizzling Contests. (By JOHN F. CONDON) When genial "Jim" Keenan asked the Hillsdales to call again after their brilliant success, all the knowing fans thought that Protectory Oval would be steeped in sorrow, because Santop asked where all the crepe-hangers hailed from. "Cyclone Joe" Williams said: "Get 'em again and let us play it to a finish." When genial "Jim" Keen again after their brilliant thought that Protectory Ova because Santop asked where from. "Cyclone Joe" William let us play it to a finish." The Hillsdales did return August 5, 1923, and there we hittte to meet them. Six the were hoarse. The Hillsdales article of ball, with Lee put such as benders, spitters, fast The Lincolnns only scored one Hillsdales crossed the rubber "Rose of New Rochelle," ser deafening applause. In the Winters, who took Lee's place little Davie Brown, the twirl left and sent Joe Williams or were blanked in the eighth and colns made great inroads into during the eighth session. The Hillsdales did return to Protectory Oval on Sunday, August 5, 1923, and there was quite a warm baseball committee to meet them. Six thousand fans cheered until they were hoarse. The Hillsdales were putting up a wonderful article of ball, with Lee putting everything over the pan, such as benders, spitters, fast, slow, subway and aeroplane. The Lincolnons only scored one run in five innings, while the Hillsdales crossed the rubber three times. Then Singer, the "Rose of New Rochelle," sent Thomas over the plate amid deafening applause. In the seventh the Hillsdales landed Winters, who took Lee's place, over the coveted course, and little Davie Brown, the twirling wizard, soaked one to deep left and sent Joe Williams over the rubber. The Hillsdales were blanked in the eighth and ninth innings, while the Lincolnons made great inroads into the Hillsdales' pitching staff during the eighth session. Thomas sent a two-bagger to the bleachers. Lucky Pierce, the age of baseball, drove one so far that, like the late Billy Keeler, he hit "where they weren't." Cyclops Joe Williams sent Thomas and Pierce across for tallies and Huddspeth, who was hit by the pitcher, scampered home on Wilson's next single, followed by Singer, making the dna score 7 to 4 in favor of the Lincoln. The game came at once with Holland in fine form. He was opposed by Ross. Both teams were blacked in the first inning. Enah made one in the second. Then the Hillsdales scored every inning until the ninth, with a total of seven. Mackey at short was a star of the first magnitude, and his stockwork would have ben a credit to top-notch work in the National League, with a homer and two singles to his credit. J. Johnson was like a streak of lightning and he landed three singles with his ashen baton. "Mackey's dive into the air and his handed grab at Hudson's rapid drive stamped out a cohesive coordinating players, precision and Monroe, who controlled their muscular movements by keen, quick perception and a strong determination to do or die, when occasion required. For the Lincoln's, Poles. Thomas and Wilson, the big little man, drew forth storms of applause, time after time; Poles rushing forward with the bases "entirely intoxicated" and the game wabbling on its last exultations, just as he did in France when he was wounded in defense of "Old Glory," and, leaping forward at a fast, shap, decelerating line, he grasped it at the last moment a few inches from the ground and the ball while resting on the elbow of the carpeted, emerald carpet.

On the field as well as on paper, the well-balanced outfit that has been gathered together by the Philadelphia pilot appears to be the class of the league, but the uncertainty of things that may occur is what keeps the fans keyed up. Hildale has bested all of the league clubs in games played to date, with the exception of the Cuban Stars, that have taken four falls out of the Philadelphia team and suffered 3 reverses. The other clubs measure up to Hildale in the following manner: Hildale has won 8 out of 9 from the Lincoln Giants. 5 out of 7 from the Baltimore Black Box. 4 out of 7 from the Bacharach Giants and 3 out of 5 from the Brooklyn Royal Giants. Well within striking distance of the league leaders, Alex Pompey's Cuban Stars are giving Hildale a tough battle and may carry it right down to the final when the two clubs meet in their last series in September.

THE WORLD OF SPORT The successful ducking of the issue by Jack Kearns and his white heavyweight champion Jack Dempsey has at last focused the attention of the white sporting writers on the metropolitan dailies to the real seat of the trouble. Colored sport writers here in Harlem long, long ago decided that Paddy Mulline, the white man supposedly looking after the business affairs of Harry Willie, was fast asleep at the switch and recently Paddy has come in for a great deal of panning at the hands of the colored people for his dilatory tactics. It was a time like Mulline boxing is enjoying its greatest popularity and big purses are being given some of the best hams the game ever produced. It was thought that Mulline would so steer his colored fighters thousands of dollars would roll into the coffees of the "Black Panther." With the eyes of the world centered on Paddy last week, the Irishman shuffled into the presence of the Boxing Commission and when he came out the big dailies told their readers that Paddy was so busy telling the gentleman of the August body of his fishing trip he forgot all about Willie. Of course, as long as Harry is satisfied the rank and file of us must be satisfied, too, but it is rather hard for us to be forced to the realization that we have a fighter willing and anxious to meet the best produced by the white race and his chances apparently spelled by a member of that race. It is Willie's business the way Mr. Mullins is handling his affairs, but a host of men and women of this colored race is rather put out at the attitude maintained by this Paddy where we are directly concerned. Some time ago when Paddy ambled into the presence of the Boxing Commission and deposited twenty-five hundred dollars, which might as well have been left in the bank to draw interest, an attempt was made by the management of the Lafayette Theatre to induce Willie to do a few minutes for the edification of his people who were very anxious to gaze upon him and applaud him for being the most logical contender to meet Dempsey. The Lafayette Theatre seats have two thousand people and at least fifteen thousand would have packed the theatre during the week to see Marry and the price to be drawn down by the "Panther" was right. There was nothing doing. Thinking that they could appeal to the race pride of the challenger some of our worthy organizations staging benefits at the theatre tried to induce him to walk on the stage and bow. Again there was nothing doing. With Paddy Mullins piloting the destinies of Harry Willis and continuing the attitude which he has maintained so far, we fear that by the time he does succeed in making a match for Willis the colored fighter will be very unpopular among his own people. We direct the attention of our readers to the opinion of Damon Runyon, one of the fairest white writers new siling ink in a special column on the New York American and Journal, appearing in the paragraph below. "Much attention has been given to Wills' claims in this column. The right of Wills and every other colored man or fighter to matches with the best of white fighters has always been strongly upheld; the 'color line' in sports always decried. But Wills has been asleep in his rights, as the lawyers would, the past few months. "He has not fought alice he met Clem Johnson in a disappointing bout in Madison Square Garden months ago. By his own inactivity, he has permitted Luis Firpe to leap out of obscurity and steal the thunder that should have belonged to him. "There is nothing occult in securing big matches. The fighter makes himself a drawing card by FIGHTING, by keeping his name constantly before the public. That's all there is to it. In all that uproar, the only voice that was silent, the only heavyweight hand not lifted in, was Wills, who was a fierce Wills. Whose fault was it? Wills offered and declined matches with George Godfrey, Floyd Johnson and Jack Renault, among others. "He seemed to take the attitude that he should fight only Jack Dempsey, that the world owed him that match. Yet he has done nothing to prove he retains the old ability that made him for a time the foremost contender. He had not been above fighting such men as Buddy Jackson, Tut Jackson and Clem Johnson before that. Perhaps he based his claim to a match with Dempsey on his victories over these opponents. Perhaps he based his win three-round defeat of Fred Fulton, "John Arthur Johnson, booking a match with the white champion, waasted no time crying about the relentlessness of Tommy Burma, the title holder. John Arthur Johnson climbed on a boat and chased Burma clear to Australia. And it is not of record that John Arthur Burma overlooked any opportunities prior to his visit to Australia to take a shot at any other aspiring fighters that came his way. "John Arthur Johnson, in Wills' position, would probably long ago have had the match with Dempsey by the expedient of making it impossible for Dempsey to deny him and still call himself a champion of the world. The writer thinks Wills is a good fighter—he is thoroughly game. "His first fight with Sam Langford nine years ago, when Langford was Langford—was a terrific test of Wills' courage. Langford had him on the floor time and again; Wills had Langford on the floor. It was a desperate battle for fourteen rounds, when Langford knotted out Wills, then comparatively inexperienced. "The writer thinks Wills, in his old condition, would give Dempsey a good fight. Perhaps Wills would beat Dempsey if Dempsey is punching no better than he punched against Tom Gibbons at Shelby. "But Wills and his handlers cannot hope to secure a match with Dempsey, or with Firpe," if Firpe takes the title from Dempsey, by sibling idly down and watching the pugilistic roll down. "Wills, properly managed, is a $100,000 a year plant. But a nonproductive plant pays mighty few dividends in prize fighting or anything else."

WOODS 133 W. 129th St. Apt. 2 East New York State Open Tennis Championship Games Now Under Way Francis Says Players From Other States in Competition Are Lined Up Against the Best in Greater New York. The New York State open tennis championship got away to a flying start on Saturday, August 4; on the grounds of the Ideal Tennis Club, 188th street, near Lenox avenue. There are 79 entrances in the men's singles event, 18 in the ladies' singles, 28 in the men's double and 16 mixed doubles. Among those that are entered from out of town will be found such sterling rocket welders as national champion E. Brown, of Indianapolis; former national champion Talley Holmes, Ted Thompson and Prof. J. Wilkinson, all of Washington, D. C.; Rev. Dr. Walker of Baltimore; Dr. McGriff, of Norfolk, W. Va.; words, the New Jersey champion, with M. Hill and Farrar also of New Jersey. The fate of the draw,has worked havoc among the New York City players; of the seeded players Champion Brown is at the top of the first half of the draw and our Satch is at the bottom of the second half; these two starling players should be fighting it out on Saturday for the New York State championship as they were to do in Philadelphia on Saturday last for the championship of the Philadelphia Tennis League when rain intervened. In his bid for a place in the final round the national champion will have an easier time advancing than Salutch, having only Dr. McGriff, F. Johnson, Tahey Holmes and Hill of New Jersey as real top-notch players, whereas in Salutch's bracket will be found such players as George Smith, Prof. Wilkinson, Norbert Bain, Ted Thompson, E. Gomes, Fred Johnson, Dr. Walker, Worde and Farfar. It is regrettable that the fate of the draw placed so many of the same players in the same half, necessitating general killing off among themselves. We have also seen several matches where members of the same clubs were drawn to meet each other in some of the first round matches. Of course, we know this cany be helped if the rules of the draw are to be carried out. The latest singles have brought together a small but clausty field, Mrs. Wade true, the first half with Mrs. Leonard at the bottom of that half; Mrs. Conick he the second half, with Miss Crawford at the bottom of this section. In Mrs. Wade's bracket will be found Mrs. Leonard and Miss Nickelson, while in Miss Crawford's end there are Mrs. Madison, Miss Thornhill, Miss Vaughan, Miss Burnett and Mrs. Conick, truly a formidable array we'll say, but if Miss Crawford shows the same brand of tennis that she is capable of and which she exhibited in winning the ideal ladies' singles cup, she will some tough and Mrs. Wade will have the opportunity that everyone is sure to liken losing to avenge her recent defeat. Can she do it? In the men's doubles we will see some spirited games; the pairing shows some very good combinations. Brown and Wilkinson, Saltch and Spooner, Smith and Jones, Gomes and N. Bain, Farrar and Words, Holmes and Thompson, McGriff and Furlonge and Ponder and Johnson are among the best. In the mixed doubles Saitch and Mra. Wade, Wilkinson and Miss Crawford, Dr. Walker and Miss Nicholson, Jones and Mra. Conick, Ponder and Mra. Leonard are very prominent, but we feel that Saitch and Mra. Wade and Wilkinson and Miss Crawford should go down to the finals. We should have preferred to see Miss Crawford paired Music by Ragam Joyce's Orchestra. Administration so great. Committee: John S.

FRANCIS.) with some local player, but the writer feels that there must be some good reason why this is not so. The referee, Dr. Hoege, and his able assistant Mr. Burke, made a wonderful start when they succeeded in completing nine matches on Saturday and four on Sunday; if this average is kept up during the rest of the first, second and third round matches, we will not have that sorry spectacle of seeing contestant playing in so many matches on the same day during the closing days of the tournament, with the result that they can do more justice to themselves, and give the tennis fans better games for their enjoyment. The open air dance that will be held on the courts on Thursday evening, August 9, is the talk of all, and if people attend in the same numbers as those discussing it, a most enjoyable time seems assured. It is their best time to talk tennis as much talking cannot be done during the matches. The committee are working hard to make a success of this dance as the others held indoors have always been poorly attended due to the summer heat. As we predicted in our last issue, the out of town players are going to find out that they have got to hustle this season to stop young Earyne Salitch, New York City's wonder player, from championship honors. The kid, playing in Philadelphia away from home fans and well wishers, defeated the great Talley Holmes, several times national champion, on Friday in the semifinals of the Philadelphia Tennis League championship games. The match was won by Salitch after a hard struggle as the scores will show, 4—6, 9—7, 6—4. We have been told by Champion Brown that Talley Holmes is playing better than he ever did since he has adapted the "drive" to the elimination of the "chop" stroke; if this is all the more credit to Salitch. After defeating Holmes the New York player qualified to meet Champion Brown in the finals on Saturday, but rats intervened before the Boxing Track and Field Events--Billiards First game of the first est could be concluded, the score being 40—love in favor of Brown. It was then decided to play the finals in New York City on Wednesday afternoon on the Ideal Courts during the contests of the New York State open. New York tennis fans are extremely fortunate in having the opportunity of seeing two finals among tennis players of such ability. The achievement of Norman and Jones in their wonderful showing in the elimination contests held recently in Long Island, both in the singles in which they both went down to the finals and semi-finals respectively, though losing out in those events, and in the doubles where they earned the right to represent the Borough of Queens, is one that every colored tennis player and fan alike should feel proud of. It is bound to have a healthful effect on the sport, and it is what the progressive element among the colored tennis adherents have been advocating this season, the opportunity of showing the little ability we have, thereby interesting the more experienced white players in our games, with the view of stimulating the game among our race. In other states the white players take more interest in the colored players than in New York, in fact in New York there is no liaison between the two races in tennis, and consequently whatever aid we can get by that co-operation is lost. We sincerely hope that this is but the beginning of brighter days for colored tennis in New York. Danny Edwards at Velodrome Against Jerome Moore's Crack Little Bantam Keeps Going and Continues to Hold His Own Against Best of 'Em Little Danny Edwards, bantam-weight champion of color of the world, continues to please the fight fans by his performances, as will be seen by the match he will engage to boil-night at the Velodrome when he again stacks up against Frankie James. Danny not very long ago put on the first best fight against the first going Frankie, and thousands will journey to the Velodrome to see the return engagement. Edwards is lighting in his best form these days, and they say that Denver Ed. Martin has been secretly helping Danny to develop a punch which he hopes to uncover in the near future, as the little Californian, has been satisfied to win his battles, like Johnnie Dundee, by points. Followers of Edwards' will be glad to learn that his manager, Mr. P. Moore, who has been forced to remain in bed for the past week or two to recover, and will be seen in his old haunts in the near future. Mr. Moore continues with the plans mapped out some time ago, which will give his stable first call when it comes to the engagement of the best colored fighters. The passing of Larry Bettridge to a white manager has occasioned a great deal of regret, among the followers of the game, and many are of the opinion that the colored fighter will regret this step, as the white man cannot do as much for him as Moore. Considering the inability of white managers to get matches, for the colored fighters, we sometimes wonder why a little more forthought is not used by those following the ring game. Even when the present-day white fight managers obtain engagements for their boys they sellout if ever draw down the money. Moore has been able to command for the services of his fighters. Look at Paddy Mullins; what is he doing for Wills that George Moore could not surpass, even though a colored man, with the many obstacles to be overcome.

Miller reached back to bygone days and Infected a dance number he has used before but which carried a certain newness about it because he danced it with Ida Anderson and Mra. Anderson, being associated with the dance for many years, xppeared to be in her element. We thoaght her the reel charmer as she led the “Sheik” on, but the fow minutes wherein she returned to terpsichore brought her into an atmosphere with her siren-like Braces that would have made many & desert king lift her to his horse and speed awsy to the desert. whereis, many ‘of the yerformers wherein many of ‘the Foe to the occasion and “stopped” the show, such as Hattle King Reavis, ably assisted by Walter Richardson at one time and Alonso Fenderson at afother, in renditions of Sumbers that wom instant ap- proval.

Mrs. Sainte Bread Washington, the widow of the late Miriam Washington, died at the home of Mrs. Anderson, of Dalforn Avenue, July 21, after a lingering illness. The funeral was held from the cemetery at New York afternoon, the William B. Hyrd omnicoating, John E. White was funeral director, and the interment in New York Bay Cemetery. There were no relatives, but Mrs. Washington had many friends. She was a member of the Ladies' Aid of the Lafayette Presbyterian Church, also the church. William B. Jones continues very ill at his home, 668 Communipaw Avenue, Henry Mumford, husband of the woman who was murdered last month in this city, died at his late residence on July 23. He was one of the material witnesses for the State in solving the murder of his wife. Because his death followed so close to his release from custody, investigation of the cause of his death was demanded by the race doctors of this city. It was thought that his death came as a result of the methods used in the third degree. Dr. George E. Cannon and Dr. James R. Stroud were present at the autopsy. The official reason given out for the cause of his death was that of heart trouble. Dr. Huskins, the County Physician, was in charge of the body. The body was later removed to the establishment of John E. White and the funeral was held from this place. Since natural causes were given as the reason, no further investigation will be made. Mr. and Mrs. Benjamin W. Whitney are the proud parents of a fine baby boy, which was born Thursday, August 2. Mother and baby are doing well. Another addition to Jersey City is the fine sanitary barber shop which opened this week on the ground floor of the Booker T. Washington Post, American Legion Building, at 30 Ege Avenue.

URROGATE SETTLES COFER CASE Orders Miss Beck to Appear and Tell What Disposition Has Been Made of Property. Surrogate Foley handed down a decision in the Cofer will case, over which Maybelle Beck and Mrs. Cassandra Cofer, both claiming to be widows of the late Lloyd McGee Cofer, had been litigants, recognizing Mrs. Cofer's claim and appointing her administratrix of the estate. The will contest began on Sept. 27, 1922, nearly a year ago. Cofer died on Aug. 6, 1922. The estate's estimated value is $50,000. The Surrogate also ordered Miss Beck, who lives at 220 West 138th street, to appear in court and tail what she knows regarding the disposition of the Cofer estate. Mrs. Cofer charges that the properties at 228 West 138th street, 220 West 138th street and 10 Marian place, Saratoga Springs, were illegally deeded over to Miss Beck by Cofer. Mrs. Cofer also secured an order for Miss Beck to return to her stock certificates in various oil companies formerly owned by Cofer and now in Miss Beck's possession. It seems that Coter was confined to his bed through illness in February, 1923. He is said to have executed a power of attorney, naming Miss Beck, on June 19, 1923, and, when he was rendered physically unable to sign his name, checks were made out and signed by Miss Beck and large sums of money withdrawn from Coter's bank account. There is in evidence another power of attorney, which it is claimed, he executed on July 7.

"Coffer owned several shares in the Standard Oil Company and other oil concerns, which he is said to have signed over to the respondent. Some of these alleged assignments were witnessed by a man named Stephens, a notary; Mary Solomon, a maid in the employ of Cofer, and Manning, a personal friend. In some cases, Coffer's signature is bold and regular, as though written by a man in perfect health, while in others, dated the same day, it is shaky and irregular, as though the signer was weak with illness. "The ink of the signature in each case is plainly different from that of the notary and the witnesses."

Daly, formerly industrial secretary of the New York Urban League, and well known to New Yorkers, has rapidly developed his real estate interests in Washington, D.C., to the point where he is now considered the leading colored realtor in the nation's capital. Mr. Daly stated in a recent interview with the Washington Star, a white paper, that new, strictly modern homes for colored people in Washington could be sold before completion, if any builders would be sufficiently speculative to build extensively for colored purchasers. Mr. Daly's challenge was taken up by a large firm of builders, and his office was given the exclusive agency on a whole row of new homes, which were erected in one of the semi-suburban districts of the capital. As was predicted, the whole row was sold even before the sidewalks were laid. Dlighted by the success of their experiment, the builders have just purchased 15 more building lots through the Daly office. These houses will be completed before late fall. Commenting on the rapid strides which he has made in the reality field, Mr. Daly said: "The field is a fertile one for anybody who understands the knack of selling—and whose intentions are fundamentally good. Salesmanship is one business essential in which we all seem to be woestly deficient." At the end of his first year in business Mr. Daly announced that property totaling $198,665 had been sold through his office. The Magnolia Cottage at Arverne seems to be a big attraction for visitors from Harlem, Jersey City, Brooklyn and Brook, who journey down to the beach over the weekend. Splendid service and commodious accommodations speak well for the cottage, and their guest list is increasing every week. Visitors and guests over the past were not signed by Coler. In one case, the letter was signed by the bottery in the name of Coler, and there is an apparent attempt on the exhibit to show that Coler made his mark."

SHERIFF SAVES MAN FROM MOB (Preston News Service.) SHELBYVILLE, Ill., Aug. 4. The quick thinking and stern measures taken by Sheriff Riley of Shelby County, who told members of a large mob that any attempt to attack the jail would be met with a volley of bullets, saved Willis Byrant, aged 29, of Clinton, Ill. from seizure by the mob. It is alleged that Bryant is charged with attacking a young 13 year old girl last Tuesday afternoon. Bryant is held in jail closely guarded day and night.

Christopher Bowling, an unsephilitized Harvard student, known to his classmates as the Virgin, meets Beatrix Marley; a beautiful colored girl of Boston, and accompanies her home. Her beauty overwhelms him and he takes her unawares with a kiss; for which he is invited away from the house. BOUT a week after Bloody Monday night Mr. William Reese of Harvard was calling upon Miss Beatrix Aiam Reese of Harvard was calling upon Miss Beatrix Marley of Boston. It was his fortieth call, for it was impossible for him to keep away from Beatrix. Will was a bright fellow. He had come down from Exeter with an excellent record for scholarship and his instructors expected him to do wonders at Harvard. For the first six months of his freshman year he came up to everyone's expectations; in the mid-year examinations he made some of the best marks in his class. But in the latter part of March he had gone to a party, and there he had met Beatrix Marley. It had been his good fortune to escort her to her home. Starting as her escort he had ended as her slave. When the final college examinations took place in June Will barely made the sophomore class, and those who had never known the spell of Trixie Marley accused Will of loitering through college. The experience had taught him nothing, and here he was again, at the beginning of his sophomore year, at the feet of the Boston Circe. ing the aggressive in kissing a girl—well, the world, or the Virgin, isn't made that way." "Indeed indeed," said Wes. "Oh, do say something interesting," said Beatrix. in her tenth attempt to turn the conversation from the subject of love. She had smiled at him, cooled at him, and talked babytalk at him, but when he began to talk love she shut him up. "But I thought I was saying something interesting," said Will, ruefully. "You're not a freshman any more," she said; "you should have outgrown such childishness. Tell me some of the college goesis; I know there must be some. What's the latest joke on some of the boys, or any of them? And that innocent, girl-ahy boy you used to tell me about—what's his name?" "Oh," said Will, brightening, "you mean the Virgin, Chris Bowling." "Oh, the Virgin's always good for a joke; there's always something on him. He's so unsophisticated, you know, and asks such simple questions—simple in the better sense of the word, I mean." "And if I remember rightly he's a great sorcerer of girls." "No, oh, no," said Will, "it isn't that; if anything he's a worshipper of women. He has such reverence for them that he worships from afar and approaches them, if ever, with a prayer. Why, he wouldn't talk love to a girl if the Supreme Court ordered him to do it." "Oh, he won't make!" "And I almost believe that the day he kisses a girl the world will come to an end." "It hasn't yet come to an end," amused Miss Marley. "And he hasn't kissed a girl yet," said Will. "I know it seems incredible, but you don't know the Virgin as we do. If he even suspected a woman wished to kiss him he'd take the next train out of town. As for the funniest idea of his talk Bargain NOW LISTEN PELLER, I DO NOT THAT MY PRO WAGON AT TIME . READ THIS FIRST. ing the aggressive in kissing a girl—well, the world, or the Virgin, isn't made that way." "Indeed, indeed," said Miss Marty, ironically. "Oh, I know that girls don't believe that any man is averse to kissing, but the Virgin would soon show them, that is, if he ever let them get near enough. "You were going to tell me the latest joke on this Virgin of yours," she said. "You, said Will. "and it's right in line with what I've been saying." The latter is that the Virgin does not even know a man from a woman." "What do you mean?" "Why, we had the class fight last Monday. Bloody Monday Night, you know. Well, some freshman dressed in woman's clothes and mixed in the fight. He must have known the Virgin was green, for he waited till the Virgin was near him in the scrimmage and then imitated a woman's scream. Of course, the Virgin's the soul of chivalry, so he knocked down a dozen freshmen to reach the so-called woman's side. He picked her up and carried her to a side street out of harm's way. Then the supposed woman punched him in the ribs and let out a coarse, masculine laugh. It happened that he knew the Virgin; they had gone to high school together in Nowburgh, where the Virgin comes from. I suppose that is why he picked the Virgin to try his trick on. The Virgin went up to the fellow's room in Holyoke Hall and they talked about Newburgh till two clock in the morning. The Virgin had never been up so late before, so he overslept and missed both his morning lectures—first time he missed a lecture since he first came to college." "Well, I declare!" said Beatrix Marley. "And the Virgin." continued Will. "was so chagrined that he wouldn't tell us about it at first, for he knew had be in for a kidding match. But Phil Worden had seen the whole thing from a distance, not knowing it was a man, so he EDITORIALS FEATURE ARTICLES LOCAL AND SOCIETY NEWS CLASSIFIED ADS told the gang that the impasseable Virgin had been hugging a girl on the square. Then the Virgin had to tell on for fear of losing his reputation." Will ended his story with a prolonged burst of laughter. After a moment of wild-eyed surprise Bessitra Marley joined in, laughing longer than Will, but for reasons he knew nothing of. "Decidedly," said she, "this Virgin of yours is a case. It must be a great thing to know him." "Yes," said Will. "I'll bring him to see you if I could only drag him. But it's of no use. We worked on him for a year and he wouldn't budge." "But sooner or later the right girl will come along." right girl will come along. "He wouldn't know it if she did. He has a great reverence for women, but he's like ice. I've seen pretty woman make eyes at him in a street car, but he wouldn't crack a smile." "So you think he's ice," said Beatrix, thoughtfully. "My opinion is that this Virgin is a tinderbox. No, he's worse than that. He's like the volcanoes of Iceland, covered with thicknesses of ice; when he finally erupts his affections will pour out like lava." "You may be right," said Will. "You have a keen intuition about men. According to antecedent probability he will not erupt, but if he does. I surely want to be around to see the performance." "Perhaps you may. For all you and I know that girl might be right in Boston, or that bridge now, waiting for desiray to strike her in the shape of Mr. Christopher Bowling." "I don't know a girl in Boston or anywhere else," said Will stoutly, "who could make the Virgin look at her, unless of course," he added, politely, "that girl be Miss Beatrix Morley." "No," she said, demurely, "such power is beyond me." "Not beyond you, Beatrix. Any man on earth would give years of his life for your favor. You know, Beatrix. you've known ever since I first saw you that I think of nothing and no one else——" "Oh, my, my, my," she interrupted. "You're getting uninteresting again." "But Beatrix, you know how I feel about you. I don't expect you to return my feeling right away, but let me hope that some day, some time——" "And you're a full-grown man, talking like this." "Oh, Beatrix," he said objectly, "don't talk like that." "But I do," she said, with an impatient toss of her proud head. "I'd think ever so much of you if you would stay sensible. As it in, you've spelled a perfect evening." After a few more furious attempts Mr. Will Reese gave it up and told her good-night with tears in his eyes. "Who'd have thought it was in the Virgin to lie like that?" she wondered, almost respectfully. "I'll have to see him again. But he needn't think he can kiss me whenever he looks like it. Anyhow, I'll call him up to mourn." * PACE wiower sage eee aces =~ Ttems of Social Interest - De.

The Senior Choir rendered splendid music. Dr. Brown spent a few minutes soliciting pledges and individuals to take books and banks. He then spoke of the death of President Harding and declared that he was a Christian gentleman and strove with all his might to please all the people in an impossible air. Brown looked at the citizens, to bow their heads in prayer, and to sing "My Country 'tis of Thee." In offering the prayer he besought the throne of grace for special blessings of strength upon the new President, that he might be found equal to the emergencies of the nation in all matters pertaining to the office which he is called upon to fill.

RUSH MEMORIAL The rendition of the hymn "Lead Kindly, Light" by the choir of Rush Memorial Church, last Sunday morning, was undoubtedly the most effective singing they have ever done. Dr. Oliver conducted the hymns on "The Parables." Elliot is found in Matthew 2:12. Subject: "The Marrage of the Kings Son." "The admirable feature of the Parables," said Dr. Oliver, is "simplicity." Christ's aim in teaching these narratives was to make them so plain that they could be easily and readily understood. The network of the discourse founded on these outlines: (1) The God (mind) Against individual Holiness, (3) And Holiness Necessary to Enter into the Marriage Feast. ST. MARK'S M. E.

WARREN GAMALIEL HARDING, twenty-ninth President of the United States, whose untimely death occurred last Thursday in California, was the sixth President of the United States to die in office and the third to die of illness. He was born in Blooming Grove, Morrow County, Ohio, and at the time of his death was fifty-eight years old. One editor states that up to the time of the Republican Convention in 1920, when he received the nomination for President, that he was "a very respectable Ohio politician of the second class." In the Senate he was an undistinguished and undistinguishable unit in the Republican machine. At the height of his campaign his enemies charged that he had colored blood in his veins, but this charge did not prevent his receiving the largest plurality ever given a candidate for the presidency. DESPITE sporadic attempts to prove himself worthy of the Negro vote, the Harding Administration was a disappointment to the vast majority of colored voters, who had hoped to see lynching made a Federal crime and the Negro come into his own as an employee of the Government under the Civil Service and appointive branches of the Government. WARREN GAMALIEL HARDING, twenty-ninth President of the United States, is now dead, and we pause from our labor to show our respect to him and to the high office he held. Our hearts go out in sympathy to his faithful widow, whose cup of sorrow is full to the brim. We have no grievances against him now that he is dead, and lend our voices to the sentiment expressed by both his friends and his political enemies that he was a good husband, a loyal citizen, and a faithful friend. President Calvin Coolidge ASSUMING OFFICE as P United States Calvin Coolidge advantage over his predece Wilson and Harding—in that to wild promises to the voters. Nominated and elected beccess in stamping out the Bos IN ASSUMING OFFICE as President of the United States Calvin Coolidge has a distinct advantage over his predecessors—Taft, Wilson and Harding—in that he has made no wild promises to the voters of the country. Nominated and elected because of his success in stamping out the Boston police strike and because of the desire of the Republican convention delegates to give the Vice-Presidency to an Easterner, Coolidge takes up the reins of government about as free of domination as it is possible for a man in political life to be. President Coolidge, though classed as a reactionary, advises, however, that one should "not hesitate to be as revolutionary as science," or "as reactionary as the multiplication table." COOLIDGE comes from New England farm stock. He has the reputation of having the courage of his convictions. He is economical and honest. While he has adopted politics as his vocation in life, it cannot be said that he has progressed because of his ability to make wonderful speeches, for he has made few of any kind. WHAT THIS FOREBODES for the Negro in America is a matter of speculation. We believe, however, that he will be frank in his dealings if not altogether fair, and that should he decide once and for all time to put an end to injustice, discrimination and mob rule in the South he is man enough to do it or forseit his life in the attempt. bok men 1170 The General Gouraud's Reception NEGROES of Greater New York City will be given an opportunity to express their appreciation for the great French Republic when on next Monday afternoon they are scheduled to greet General Gouraud, the "Lion of the Argonne," at the Seventh Regiment Armory. It was under this noted military character that the famous Fifteenth Regiment fought and won fame in France. France has not forgotten the American Negro soldier, nor has she forgotten those dark sons of her own who helped bring victory to the Allied arms. FRANCE ALONE of all the Allied nations involved in the war has shown a determined disposition to protect both its citizens and soldiers of color since the war. She alone has issued orders to her police force to "protect the citizens of France at all cost," even against the wishes of prejudiced American tourists, and she alone has nerve enough to back up such an order. WHAT A DIFFERENT STORY we must tell concerning our own country. The American Negro soldier was discriminated against before and after the war. He was lynched before he entered the service of his country and such inhuman treatment was not abated after the war. His complaint is not against the foreign tourist on American soil, but against those who profess to be his fellow citizens. IN VIEW OF THESE CIRCUMSTANCES we should be willing to lay aside our regular duties next Monday afternoon and show our appreciation for one of the greatest men in the world, whose country demonstrates daily the high regard it has for the American Negro soldier, the French colonial and for all mankind, irrespective of race, creed or color. RECENT SURVEY of the City of the U. S. Department of War has some insight of our fellow citizens in a mountain county in GERMANY ONE FAMILY, separately from range from the nearest state, the father had not called twelve months, the mother, at the settlement in seven years her mother had lived sixty years saw a train. Another woman to the nearest settlement, in twenty years. A mother wore three miles from town, one-third a rugged trail, stated she had year before she saw another home the father answered questions and, explaining his wish, said 'She has seen mighty wars and never seen a train. And fathers were visited with to nearby villages in years never seen a train." TITLE WONDER that this far the Negro the vote, believed, burns men at the stake of the modern Ku Klux Klan. PRESSED BY CONTEMPORARY Our 63 Per Cent Costlier Government A RECENT SURVEY of the Children's Bureau of the U. S. Department of Labor gives us some insight of our fellow white citizens in a mountain county in Georgia. "IN ONE FAMILY, separated by a mountain range from the nearest store and post office, the father had not called for his mail in twelve months, the mother had not been to the settlement in seven years, and the father's mother had lived sixty years before she saw a train. Another woman had not been to the nearest settlement, six miles away, in twenty years. A mother who lived only three miles from town, one-third of the distance rugged trail, stated she had lived there a year before she saw another woman. At one home the father answered most of the questions and, explaining his wife's shyness, said 'She has seen mighty nigh no strangers and never seen a train. A few mothers and fathers were visited who had not been to nearby villages in years; some had never seen a train." LITTLE WONDER that this fair State denies the Negro the vote, believes in the Jim-Crow, burns men at the stake and is the home of the modern Ku Klux Klan. EXPRESSED BY CONTEMPORARIES (From the New York World) Senior Bureau of the Department of Washington gives the follow of expenditures and of costs of a capita for New York City d. the year just before the B ton took office and 1914: Total Exp Expenditures The Census Bureau of the Department of Commerce at Washington gives the following comparison of expenditures and of costs of government per capita for New York City during the past year, the year just before the Hyland Administration took office and 1914: This represents an increase in total expenditure of 63 per cent. from the last year of the Mitchell regime. Relatively to a growing population it represents an increase of 51 per cent. Taxes, of course, have increased proportionately. Up to Jan. 1, 1918, when Mayer Kylin first took office, the tendency of expenditure had been downward. Since then the tendency has been the other way, and by leases and bounds. This is not by way of proving residences extravagance against the Kylin Administration. For from it. The dollar of account has been depreciating greatly during these later years. It will buy a much smaller amount of labor and material than formerly. But when all is said along this line that can be said, the fact remains that the city's Government is not enjoying an administration notable for economy. Twenty-two dollars, cannot be added to its costs for every man, woman and child in the city within five years where a careful watch over the disposition of the city's money has been the rule. Nor is there to be observed the slightest effort to arrest this tendency so threatening to the income of taxpayers for any other purpose than to pay taxes.

DIXON had had occasion to go into the room several times. On one occasion he had heard this man say times. On one occasion he had heard this man say vehemently "The 'nigger' is a menace to our civilization and should be kept down. I am opposed to educating him, for the educated 'nigger' is a misfit in the white man's civilization. He is a caricature and no good can result from his 'butting in' on our affairs. Would to God that none of the breed had ever set foot on the shores of our country. That's the proper place for a 'nigger,'" he had said quite aloud, on seeing Dixon engaged in wiping out the wash bowls. At another time he had heard the same speaker deliver himself of this opinion: "You may say what you please, but I would never eat with a bigger." I couldn't stomach it. God has placed an insuperable barrier between black and white that will ever prevent them from living on the same social plane, at least so far as the Anglo-Saxon is concerned. I have no hatred for the black man—in fact, I could have none, but he must stay in his place." "That's nothing else but racial antipathy," his opponent had objected. "You don't have to take my word for it." said the other, snappily. "Didn't Abraham Lincoln say: There is a physical difference between the white and black races which, I believe, will forbid the two races living together on terms of social and political equality! Call it what you will, but there is an indefinable something within me that tells me I am infinitely better than the best 'nigger' that ever lived. The feeling is instinctive and I am not going to violate nature." Upon hearing this remark, Dixon had thought as follows: "My good man, how easily I could define that 'indelible feeling' of which you speak. I notice from your positive manner, and impatience of contradiction that you experience that indelible feeling of superiority not only toward Negroes; but toward your white associates as well, and that feeling you, yourself, would call in any one else 'conceit.'" Dixon had happened to be present at the close of the discussion, which, had been brought to an end by the announcement of dinner. The conversation had been a rather heated one and had closed with this retort by the anti-Negro passenger: "You, too, had slavery in the North, but it didn't pay and you gave it up. W wasn't your pedantic and self-righteous Massachusetts the first to legalize slavery? You Northeners forced slavery on us, and when you couldn't make any more money on it, because England had stopped slave trade, you made war on us to make us give it up. A matter of climate, that's all. Climates reversed, it would have been the South that wanted abolition. It was a matter of business with you, not sentiment. You Northerners, who had interest in slavery, were bitterly opposed to abolition. It is all very well for you to talk, but if you Yankees had the same percentage of 'niggers' that we have, you would sing a different tune. The bitterest people against the 'nigger' are you Northerners who have come South. You, too, have race riots, lynching and segregation. The only difference between South and North in that one is frank and the other hypocritical" and he added with valence sincerity, "T hate hypecries." In spite of this avowed enemity toward his people, Dixon had felt no animosity toward the man. Here, he had thought, was a conscience, honest but uneducated. Shortly afterward an occupant of the another, who had been puffing a huge calabash with Indian stability, met Dinon in the passageway. Producing his remarks with a few terrible, but good-natured caths, he said, "That fellow is obsessed by the race problem. I met him yesterday at the hotel, and he has talked of hardly anything else since. This morning we were in the elevator when a well-dressed Negro, who looked like a professional man, came in, and at once he began to tell me so that all could hear him something about 'nigger' doctors in Oklahoma. If he could only see how ridiculous he is making himself, he'd say 'un'." "I feel myself as good as he," he went on to say, "and I have associated with colored people. We have a colored poster in our office—Joe—and we think the world of him. He doesn't like 'niggers.' oh!" Then with a knowing wink, nudging Dixon in the ribs at the same time, he added another oath, "I wager his instinctive dislike as he will." doesn't include both sexes of your race. I know his kind well." Dixon had felt like saying. "We must be patient with the self-deluded." but he did not. He had simply thanked the speaker for his kind sentiments, then turned and walked away. All of this ran through the porter's wind when he saw the pajama-clad passenger appear in the doorway. The newcomer, on entering, waited up to the mirror, where he looked at himself quizzically for a moment, then selected a chair and adjusting it to suit his fancy made himself comfortable in it; next, he took a plain and well-worn gold cigarette case from his pocket, selected a cigarette, and, after tapping it on the chair, began rummaging his pockets for a match, all in apparent oblivion to the presence of Dixon at the near end of the long cushioned seat. But Dixon had been quietly observing him and definitely presented a lighted match, at the same time venturing to inquire in a respectful and rather solicitous tone. "Can't sleep air?" "No, George," came the reply in an amable, but condescending tone. "I was awakened at the last stop and can't go back to sleep. I never do very well the first night, anyway." With this the passenger began to talk to Dixon quite freely, telling him of his trip from Oklahoma. They soon began to talk about more personal matters. Into this part of the conversation the passenger injected phrases such as "darkies," "niggers" and "coons." From this the senator began to tell jokes about chicken-stealing, razor-fights and watermelon feasts. Of such jokes he evidently had an abundant stock. Nearly all of these Dixon had heard time and again. One was the anecdote of a Negro head waiter in a Northern hotel, who, when asked by a Southern guest if he were the head "nigger" indignantly objected to the episthet, but upon the visitor's informing him that it was his custom to give a large tip to the "head nigger." this head-waiter, so the story goes, effusively retracted, saying, "Yassah, Bos. Ise'de' head niggah, and pointing to the waiters, added, "and of you doan'b leave me asst all dem othah niggah deh." The narrator was laughing immoderately, and so was the listener. Had the entertainer been a mind reader, however, he might not have been flattered by his success as a comedian, since it was his conduct, and not his wit, that was furnishing the porter's mirth. While the passenger was still laughing the train began to slow down, and Dixon, asking to be excused, slid to the other end of the seat to look out, thus exposing the book he had placed behind him. The passenger saw the volume and his humor was instantly changed to curiosity. The book stood end up on the seat and he could discern from its size and binding that it was a volume that might contain serious thought. He had somehow felt that this Negro was above the ordinary and the sight of the book now confirmed the feeling. A certain forced quality in the timbre of Dixon's laughter, as also a merry twinkle in his eye had made him feel at times just a bit uncomfortable, and now he wanted to verify the suspicion. His curiosity getting the better of him, he reached over to take the volume, but at the same instant Dixon's slipping back to his former seat caused him to hesitate. Yet he determined to find out. He demanded slippantly, pointing to the book, "reading the Bible, George!" "No, sir." "What then?" "Oh, only a scientific work." said the other, carelessly, not wishing to broach the subject of recital differences that the title of the book suggested. Dixon's very evident desire to evade a direct answer seemed to sharpen the other's curiosity. He suggested off-handedly, but with ill-concocted eagerness. "Pretty deep BY J. A. ROGERS AUTHOR OF "Blood-Money" (newspaper Feature Service.) manner he inquired, "Who's the author?" Dixon saw the persistent curiosity in the other's eye. Knowing too well the nature of the man before him, he did not want to give him the book but being unable to find any pretext for further withholding it, he took it from the seat, turned it right side up, and handed it to the Senator. The latter took it with feigned difference. Moistening his forefinger, he began turning over the leaves, then settled down to read the marked passages. Now and then he would mutter: "Nonsense! Ridiculous!" Suddenly in a burst of impatience he turned to the frontispiece, then exclaimed in open disgust: "Just as I thought. Written by a Frenchman." Then, before he could recollect to whom he was talking—so full was he of what he regarded the absurdity of Flout's view—he demanded: "Do you believe all this rot about the equality of the races!" Now Dixon's policy was to avoid any topic that would be likely to produce a difference of opinion with a passenger, provided that the avoidance did not entail any sacrifice of his self-respect. In this instance he regarded his questioner as one to be humored, rather than vexed, for just then the following remark, made by this legislator that afternoon, recurred to him: "The Jew, the Frenchman, the Dago and the Spaniards are all 'niggers' to a greater or less extent. The only white people are the Anglo-Saxons, Testones and Scandinavians." This, Dixon surmised, had accounted for the remark the other had made about the authors adopted nationality, and it amused him. As Dixon pondered the question there occurred to him a way by which he could retain his own opinion while in apparent accord with the passenger. He responded accordingly: "No, sir, I do not believe in the equality of the races. As you say, it is impossible." (To Be Continued Next Week) National Sociological The National Sociological Society, organised in 1908, has spent twenty years in the investigation and study of the causes underlying racial friction in the United States, and has concluded that the lack of common ground on which the white people of the South can stand, the white people of the North can stand and upon which the colored people themselves are willing to stand in the cause of inharmonious relations between white and colored Americans. The investigation has convinced the Sociological Society that the American Racial Question is sociological and economic, in its basic principles and aspects, rather than political, and must be solved on sociological grounds. There must be found an alchemic for the solution of the problem, and the conference of the best minds of both races from every section of the country is called to discover, if possible, that alchemic. The Sociological Conference on Racial Harmony will be held at Washington, D. C., September 20, 21, 22. WRITES ON "WHAT U. S OWES THE NEGRO The Negro is the creator of the only things artistic that have yet sprung from American soil and been universally acknowledged as distinctive American products," according to James Weldon Johnson, writing in the August "Our World," published in this city. After reciting that Negroes nailed with Columbus, explored with Narrows, fought in every war on American soil, and contributed by their labor to the nation's prosperity, Mr. Johnson says: "However honorable and glorious as is the Negro's record, it is not the most important story about him in America. For a display of the elements of stamina and courage and loyalty and of intelligence, it does not begin to compare with his peace record. It is in the victories of peace that the Negro has demonstrated His highest claim to full membership in the groups that enter into the making of America. It is in the victories of peace that he has stood the test of the more essential qualities of manhood and citizenship—of stamina, patience, sacrifice, courage, determination, intelligence and faith in oneself. Indeed, in my opinion, it requires greater courage and a higher degree of qualities, mental and spiritual, for a Negro to be a successful, respected and self-respecting citizen in any Mississippi, than it required for a Negro to win the Croix de Keeping Fit:- By E.

These conditions are known as apoplexy by rapture, or apoplexy by embolism or thrombosis. These conditions lead to the following final results, namely: paralysis of one side of the body, or sudden death. Legal Talks By ATTORNEY ANNA J.

Ex-President Woodrow Wilson became ill and paralyzed; while the late President, Warren G. Harding, died almost instantly. The causes of apoplexy are numerous and should be known. In these days of competition and strenuous living, apoplexy is causing the death or paralysis of a very large number of people. A degenerative state of the walls of the blood vessel is the underlying cause of apoplexy by rupture. In such cases an increased blood pressure will readily rupture a blood vessel of the brain. This is why it is so necessary for a man or woman over 40 years of age to have regularly an examination of the heart, blood vessels and kidneys; and also to find out if the blood pressure is too high. By such an examination one will know how to reduce their physical efforts, and lessen up on mental strain.

There was too much mental strain with such a journey. He was over 40 years old, and was already burdened with national and international problems. The pressure was too much, and therefore a blood vessel in his brain broke. Severe muscular efforts, attacks of anger or excitement, overindulgence in, spiritual liquors, all these may cause apoplexy. Hardening of the arteries frequently results from apphilis, chronic aphritis and heart disease; apoplexy usually occurs where there is a hardening of the arteries. Thus many conditions enter into the causes of apoplexy; a high blood pressure is a signal of danger. After 40 years of age, the family physician should regularly examine the heart, the kidneys and the blood pressure; and, in some cases, Wassermann blood tests should be taken. In this way apoplexy may be avoided. Talks BY NIA J.

Where this defense is available to a tenant, the landlord must file a verified bill of particulars, setting forth the gross income derived from the building, and a detailed account of all his operating expenses, in order that the court may determine the reasonableness of his demand. Landlords are most unwilling to do this, and the tenant who shows a fighting spirit is more than likely to obtain concessions. 135TH STREET, LIBRARY New Books "North of 36," a new story by Hough, who wrote the famous "Covered Wagon."
