White Salesman Robs His Negro Benefactor
COLUMBUS, O., Aug. 21. Charles Jones, of Halig's Mission, was robbed of $17 Wednesday afternoon by a white man representing himself as a pin salesman. The man asked Mr. Jones to buy some pins. Jones told the salesman that he did not need any pins. Then the salesman put up a hard luck story that he had failed to make a sale for the day and was actually broke. Then Jones told him that if he was as bad off as all that he would lend him a dollar. While Jones was counting out a dollar in change to lend the salesman, the stranger grabbed Jones bankroll, a total of $17, and ran away. Jones then notified the police.
Bruce Against the Dyer Bill
Bruce Says Individual States Should Deal With Lynching.
(Preston News Service.)
BALTIMORE, Md., Aug. 21.—I am a Democrat from the South, and traditionally in favor of retaining as large police power in the individual states as possible." declared Senator Bruce in expressing his opposition to the Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill. "On the other hand, I am more strongly opposed to the barbarous practice of lynching and I am in favor of eradicating lynching. My method will be for the states to deal with the problem individually, by effective action. What I think should be done is for a large number of leading men, white and colored, in the Southern States, to unite in a written appeal to the governors of those states to recommend to their legislatures the passage of some uniform law that, in addition to the penalties prescribed by the ordinary law of the land for homicide, would impose severe penalties on all public servants concerned with administration of justice who refused or failed to protect, to the full extent of their ability, a victim of lynching."
He also said: "I favor the law already enacted in some sections—a fine against the county in which a lynching is permitted to occur, the fine to go to the family of the victim. Such legislation in a few of the states which have been most disgraced by lynching would remove all feeling of necessity for anything like the Dyer bill, and would also be an advertisement of great material value to the states adopting it." Senator Bruce is from Maryland.

Like a bolt of lightning from a clear sky came the news on Monday night to this city of the real reason why a Dempsey-Wills fight has been hanging in the balance for the past few months, and that reason is that the Honorable Al Smith, Governor of the State of New York, has Presidential aspirations and is making a bold play to the cracker Democrats of the South in preventing Harry Wills from meeting Jack Dempsey in the roped arena.
Negrous have boasted, and especially those supplying the Democratic Party in this part of the country, that the Democrats are the real friends of our people and Al, good old Al, of the East Side, would go out of his way to see that justice was done and fair play was meted out to all, at least in the world of sport. This is the same Al that smilingly gazed down upon the colored Democratic Marching Club a few months ago which made the trip all the way to Albany to let Al know that he had the colored vote in the palm of his hand.

We understand that the editorial department of this paper will be more than anxious to learn what will be said by the colored brothers in exenuation of the attitude of their dear friend Al. As we look back to that day when the naughty black sons of this city and state comprising the crack 15th Infantry marched up the broad avenues of the city to the plan ditrix of the throng, there rises within us a certain sadness which tempers anything we might have to say at this time of the unfairness of the white man in continually using us as a political football to appease that section of the country which is still in a primitive stage, that section where they are hanging, burning and shooting men, women and children of the black race.
Some of you boast of Abraham Lincoln forgetting there was a time when even he said to "save the Union with or without slaves." What care any white man for the sufferings of this race of cows when his personal ambitions must be served? Here we have the most logical contender for postal honors being denied his chance after we were told that we want to France to fight for true democracy. The record of Jack Dempsey during the war is something that his manager has succeeded in burying because it was not of the best and when he fought Carpenter the American people turned out to cheer the French champion because HIS record could stand the glare of the spotlight.
Willa, an upstanding American citizen of color, hailed by men of all colors because of his politically bearing at all times, and a man whose character has never been questioned and an honorable member of the community in which he lives, has been denied the right to fight for the championship by the Governor of the State of New York. The war record of black men play no part in the consideration of Al Smith. But let Mr. George Underwood of the New York Evening Telegram tell the tale of this injustice to our people:
Unless Governor Smith suffers a complete change of mind there will be no Democracy Willie... content in New York State until after the Democratic National Convention of 1994.
If the context, the one big burying event the whole sporting world has been missing to see, is slapped at all it probably will be in Connecticut or New Jersey. It is unlikely that it can be postponed until next year to permit it to be staged in New York. As Congress offers some allowing advantage, Jack Mirror, Manager of Democracy

The outstanding features of this year's sessions were the speeches of Gov. McAsean, latter being taken (or resumed) with to some extent, in favour of southern white people in this section) and of Major Robert R. Moton, president of the league.
RaeRae's speech dealt with those phases of the life and problems of southern whites and Negroes. The Governor was introduced by a Negro who had lived within three blocks of him for 30 years. Naturally, much interest centered around what Dr. Moton would have to say this year. In some strangely unaccountable way, the entire delegation to the convention was anxious to hear a word from the Tuskegee leader, and the head of the league, on the now famous Tuskegee hospital situation. Dr. Moton's remarks on the Tuskegee hospital included the following:
He declared that he had reaffirmed from public announcement because he felt it better to restruct his talking to those who were in a position to accomplish something. "In all of this affair," he asserted, "two great motives have been actuating those of us at Tuskegee who have had directly to deal with the situation. The first was the conviction that Negroes have a right above all other people their own and, second, the necessity of present interest that those relationships between white people and black people at Tuskegee, in the South, and all over the country, which was the outstanding achievement of the career of Booker Washington.
"So far as the first motive goes, we have abundant evidence that our physicians and nurses are capable of rendering the services demanded. This is not only our own opinion, but it is the testimony of those in authority outside of the Negro race. I have steadfastly and unwerringly taken that position from the very beginning and have said that by every right of sentiment and justice our physicians and nurses should have the opportunity to serve in that hospital, and I have made this assertion where it would mean most; namely, before the superintendent of the veterans' hospital at: Tuskegee, the director of the Veterans' Bureau in Washington, and before the late immeiated President Harding himself! stand on that position today and there is no man living who can make me change it, and there is no force on earth or in heaven that will make me surrender it.
"On the other hand, there is the question of good will between the races to be considered. For 35 years Washington so conducted the work at Tuskegee that the school and the town were constantly moving forward in hearty cooperation, and there were those among our white friends in the town of Tuskegee who were equally as steadfast in their determination that these harmonious relations should not be disturbed as he. Therefore, to avoid any possible capture of these harmonious relations, I have avoided as far as possible any public statement on the situation: I have preferred to make my recommendations to those in authority who were in a position to adjust the matter on a satisfactory basis. And in every instance I have reinforced my recommendations with the statement that if Negro physicians were debarred from serving in this hospital it would be the occasion of great embarrassment to all concerned."
At the conclusion of Dr. Moran's speech the convention passed a resolution endorsing his stand in the controversy.
A committee composed of Mr. S. Hunter, Bert Roddy, Jesse Jones, J. C. Mitchell, M. S. Stewart, George W. Brads and R. W. Wright, Sr. chairman, made itself personally responsible to the extent of $3,000 by January 1, and to secure the best man in the country to put to work organizing local leagues. Real cash was put up.

For more than twelve years I was suffering from severe headaches, nervousness, pain in the back and stomach, poor appetite, weakness, lazitude and ceni-sipation. I was able to walk only with distress. I complained several physician's, but they did not seem to recognize my disease and were unable to help me.
One day I read the announcement of Dr. Hannah's online and I immediately put myself under her care. I went to her office with my new laptop left with the first treatment and I improved. Now after being under her care only three months I have been able to walk and eat. I am able to walk well and while I was hardly able to eat before, I have now a wonderful appetite and enjoy everything I am eating. Indeed, my condition is excellent that you would hardly believe I was ever stink.
I am very grateful to this skillful specialist and I gave this testimony very willingly so that others may learn how much good he does for the sick.

Seventh avenue and 132nd street. A stroke of apoptomy was given as the cause of his death.
Mr. Tasker was in the shop getting some tonsorial work done, when he was taken ill. First aid was given him by employees of the shop and friends of his who happened to be there at the time. Present also was Dr. Vernon Ayer of 123 West 187th Street, whose efforts to revive the stricken restaurateur proved futile.
Meanwhile a crowd collected outside the barber shop, attracting the attention of a Patrolman from the West 135th Street Station. A taxicab was summoned and Mr. Tasker, escorted by Dr. Ayer, was removed to his rooms in 123rd Street where he died soon after. Funeral services were held
Monday evening in the funeral parlor of Undertaker William C. Perry, 248 West 182nd St. Rev. A. Clayton Powell, D. D. pastor of Abyssinian Baptist Church, officiated, assisted by the Saloonsmen's Protective Union No. 1 and the Empire State Order of Moose, of which the deceased was a member. His body was interred in Evergreen cemetery yesterday.
At the time of his death his wife, Mrs. Sarah Tasker, was in Atlantic City, managing "Doc's Lunch" there.
Tasker was born fifty-three years ago in Philadelphia, but has been a resident of New York for thirty-five years.

Claiming that they were from the "jungles" and that they were not afraid of anyone, William Bryan, 18, 215 West 62d street, and John Fowler, 19, 232 West 63d street, were arrested by Patrolman Tuchy, of the 135th street police station, and arraigned in the Magistrate's Court Monday, charged with attacking the officer at 2.45 a. m. in front of "The Garden of Joy," 139th street and Seventh avenue.
The officer said that at 1.15 a.m. both defendants came out of the "Garden of Joy" somewhat intoxicated, and using loud and profane
language. He said that he warned them both, but they returned an hour later and when he spoke to them again Bryan hit him with his clenched fist while Fowler attacked him with a razor.
Bryan pleaded not guilty and said that he complained to the officer about a man who had attacked him in the cabaret in an argument over a girl, when the officer began striking him with his club. He admitted that he had been drinking "bootch" and that when he came out of the Garden of Joy he was "a little intoxicated." Fowler, who was cut about the mouth, said that the officer beat him in the face. He denied that the ransom—a handleless one—was his, and said that the officer had picked it up on the ground, where it had apparently been dropped by someone else. Patrolman Tahoy admitted striking the defendant, but said that he had been compelled to do so in self-defense. Both defendants were held in bonds of $1,500 each for General Sessions.
When asked where were the "jungles," according to the officer, said that they meant the Columbus Hill District.
THE HORSE'S SPEED LIMIT.
Before our agrarian population had taken so enthusiastically to the automobile, two farmers drove into town in an old spring wagon pulled by a very hony nag. The little burg had been incorporated, and among the evidences of this was a brand-new sign at the town line: "Speed limit, 10 miles an hour." Observing this, the driver began whipping up his steed vigorously.
"What's yo' hurry?" demanded his companion in mild astonishment.
"See that sign!" returned the other. "But I dunno if I can make it or not."—Everybody's Magazine.

British Association Refuses Sanction to Colored Star
But Sprint Champion Sails on Franconia for Pre-Olympic Games Here
To Get Around Ruling of English Athletic Governing Body H. F. V. Edwards Declared His Intention of Becoming An American Citizen.
After all arrangements were made by H. F. V. Edwards, the English sprint champion, to come to America to compete in the Pre-Olympic games of the Wilco A. A. at the Yankee Stadium on September 8, he was denied permission to make the trip by the Amateur Athletic Association of Great Britain.
To get around the ruling of the English athletic governing body, Edwards decided to emigrate to this country and before sailing on the S. S. Franconia yesterday he declared his intention of becoming an American citizen upon his arrival here. Having declared his intentions of becoming an American citizen he is no longer under the jurisdiction of the A. A. A. of Great Britain, but will become registered with the A. A. U. of the United States, which will make him eligible to compete in the Wilco A. A. games.

There is a possibility of the A. A. U. refusing him permission to compete in view of the action of the A. A. A. in refusing to sanction his trip here, but if Edwards presents his amateur credentials it is hard to see on what grounds they can refuse to register him, in taking the action that he has, Edwards has forfeited his right to compete in Olympic games at Paris next Summer. He represented England in the Antwerp Olympic and finished third in the 160 and 200 meter races, and having competed in the Olympics for England, he cannot compete for any other country in Olympic competitions.
His plans are to take a position in New York and live here permanently.
He is coming here to match attitudes with some of the American sprinters who he had the pleasure of beating in the Olympic games at Antwerp three years ago, and also who he failed to beat, namely Alain Woodring, the Olympic 200 meter champion. Edwards finished third, 10 times greater at the Antwerp Olympics. On September 8 he will find that he is up against a better grade of sprinters that competed at Ant

Dick Landon, the Olympic champion in the running high, expects to be able to show how he is going to repeat his Olympic victory at Paris next year. Leoley Brown, of Dartmouth, inter-collegiate champion, who is joint holder with Landon of the world's indoor record; Johnny Murphy, of the Pacific Northwest and J. V. Algeria, of Chicago, present national champion, completes a field of 4 feet a quartet of high jumpers as could be brought together.
If records do not fall at this meet, it will not be because the talent was not the best that could be find in this country.
Popular "Kid" Buller to Face Martin Saturday
Protoge of George Moore Making His First Appearance Against Real Star in "Providence Terry."
Fight face will have a bout dished up to them the coming Saturday night at the Commonwealth Casino that will find the old and popular host of benging in this community pushed to the doors. After trying top a long time, George Moore has succeeded in inducing one of the best white boys in the game today to give his popular little fighter, Kid Buller, now known as Ansel Ball, a fight.
Buller has been matched to meet President Terry Martin in the ear encounter, and if Buller wins, it will mean that he is on the way to that recognition which his manager has promised him. Buller has been forced to give away a great deal of weight in his previous fights and the white boys have been giving him a wide berth on account of his punching ability. It will be remembered that Buller fought Frankie Curry, one of the toughest boys in the game, and soon after the word was passed that Buller was a dangerous man, buller also met a regular light when he faced Charlie Pilkington some time ago, as the white boy weighed 124 pounds and would have entered the ring weighing 137. had not Manager Moore insisted that he at least enter the ring near the lightweight instead of keeping so close to the wallers, speaking of Buller reminds us that Danny Edwards will be forced

Moore has never looked with favor on Edwards fighting so often, but even a manager is human and at times will fall for the insistent plea of a fighter.
Upon his return to the big city Danny will be matched with Abe Attel Goldstein for a return engagement, and the fur will fly, as the real Edwards will be in the ring. It is said that both the Commonwealth and Queensboro Clubs are angling for the match. Of course, we hope that the McMahons will get it, to give the colored fans the opportunity of seeing Danny at his best, right at their very doors.
Asks Receiver For Homestead Grays
PITTSBURGH, Aug. 15—Seller Hall fired a bill in equity this morning in Common Pleas Court against C. W. Posey, Jr. and Charles Walker, through his counsel, Attorney Coleman Harrison and Morris G. Levy, in which he asks for a receiver for the Homestead Grays, a Negro baseball club, which has been playing around the western Pennsylvania district for years. Hall alleges that this spring he entered into an agreement, whereby the defendants and himself were to conduct two baseball clubs, the Seller Hall Giants and Homestead Grays, and that he was to have a one-third interest in the Grays. Hall was manager of the Seller Hall Giants, and Posey the pilot of the Homestead Grays.
This arrangement continued until July 29, when Hall alleges that Posey told him that he was no longer interested in the Homestead Grays. Hall alleges that the Homestead Grays have been receiving large guarantees for playing games, and that he has been denied access to the books of the club, showing the receipts and what his percentage of profit was. Unless a receiver is appointed, Hall declares that he will be deprived of his profits, which have been made and which will be received for the remainder of the season.

THE WORLD OF SPORT
The Sportive Spotlight
The old-timers in the athletic world are planning to get together at Craig's on the night of September 23. If these men who have in the past contributed their share towards the progress of athletics among colored people can take a night off and meet, it is going to be a right good old time for all concerned, and when the boys sport home it will be with reminiscences the essay in the battles of life. The will be in athletics number some of the finest young men the rose has produced and it is no fault of theirs that the present generation isn't steadfastly working on the foundation which the boys of yearlyer built for them. Fifteen and twenty years ago there were among us youngsters making personal sacrifices and honestly working towards a better and brighter day in athletics, and one in restrospective mood can look back and recall these wonderful days when, through the work of these aplendid fellows, thousands of people in Greater New York and New Jersey enjoyed the things then being accomplished on track and field and the basketball court.
Sad indeed is the present time when you can remember what was done in the past. The names making up the list of those boys of the past who are still young men are legion, and we hope we will have the pleasure of recording them for our readers following the banquet. The night selected has been set aside for fraternizing among the bunch and, like they did things in the old days, they have limited their spachmakers and makers of speaches to three. As the time, draws near we hope to have a few more words to say, as none, regardless of what the future might bring, can be more deserving of praise than these young men.
Regardless of what the future will bring forth through the activity of Paddy Mullins in behalf of Harry Wills, we are firmly convinced at this time that Jack Dempsey and his astute and wily manager, Jack Kearns, will finally frighten the fight between Dempsey and Wills are the principal. In extinctions, then what we have in the past pointed out that Jack Kearns is out to get all the money he can for his champion, and this point we readily recognized, until Mr. Kearns resorted to the same old trick of demanding the earth for a fight between Wills and Dempsey and being given at least half the earth before the man enter the ring.
Kearna fells that the day Jack Dempsey crawls through the ropes to meet Harry Willis, that day he and his meal ticket will bid adieu to the money-making jaunt that has brought Dempsey all the name of fistlane, man whom we are connoisseur would go the same read if stacked up against "Kid" Norfolk. We do not believe that Kearna is curious when he states that he is willing to send his man against Willis three weeks after the Dempsey-Firpo fight. Kearna, to use the shorter and uglier word, is lying, and he knits it.
The plans now running riot in the mind of Tex Rickard will call for a return engagement between Tommy Gibbons and Jack Dempsey. Dempsey hold up Gibbons out in Shelby and allowed him to go the limit for this very thing which they are going to attempt to put over after the Dempsey-Firpo fight. We sincerely hope that the "Wild Bull of the Pampas" will spell the plains of the seahorses and by some chance paralyses Dempsey with one of his famous rights and take the championship back to the Argentine and refuse to enter the ring again. If Louis wins we hope that he will devote his entire time to representing the Stutz Meter Car Company in the territory assigned him in South America.
This would give Willis the championship of Americas automatically, then it would be up to them to try and bring back the Bull; as none other in the country will be able to hold up the supremacy of the white brother. Even Louis might have some African blood coursing through his veins, as they mix more down his way.

Royals Win First 6 to 1 With Hubbard in Box—Streeter, For Lincoln, Whitwashes Them 5 to 0.
BY WILLIAM J. MOORE.
The Lincoln and Royals split a double header at the Catholic Protectory Sunday, Jees Hubbard of the Royal Glants had the Lincoln at his mercy, shutting them out for eight innings, but the New Yorkers escaped a scout in the ninth tallying a run, the final being 6 to 1 in the Royal Glants' favor.
Sam Streeter, after pitching the ninth inning of the first game, faced the Royals and shut them out 5 to 0, allowing only three scratch hits besides fanning seven batters, while his team-mates drove Flourney out of the box in the second inning. Dick Rodding finished the job; he was no pawn to the Lincoln Giants, who batted him harder than his predecessor, who was hit very hard.
George Scales, of the St. Louis Storm, played his first game with the Lincoln Giants at third in place of Marcell who was on the bench, having been sick all the week.

Paddy Mullins in Letter to Amsterdam News Says He'll Claim Championship
Mullins Says That He Has Given Much Thought to the Matter and Has Reached the Conclusion He and His Protege Have Been Victimized.
Paddy Mullins, manager of Harry Wills, has just come to the realization that both himself and the challenger have been made the victims of a huge hoax by the boxing powers in New York City, which include not only the Boxing Commission, but the tall Texas ranger and Negro hater answering to the name of Tex Rickard, the same Tex Rickard who never would have been a power in the boxing game but for Joe Gans and Jack Johnson.
Climbing to success on the shoulders of these Negroes, Rickard, no doubt seeking to enter society after the swimmind pool episode had been dismissed from the courts of this city, showed by his action that he has given the colored fighters the "go by" for all time in spite of the camouflage pulled by giving Panama Joe Gans a gold belt keeping him in the ranks of colored fighters. Instead of bringing Joe down to Madison Square Garden to meet the best the white race can produce he gave him a gold belt and bade him goodbye.
At no time have we entertained the idea of Wills being given a square deal in this city, for the rollers have been greased to keep him out and money is being spent to deny him the chance at the world's championship. Mullins ought to come up here, hire some military bands, stage some monsters and warriors and do everything within his power to make the "interests" feel bad. He ought; to also lead a bunch of colored people from Harlem to root with all their might for Lais Firpo. Everything within his power should be done, now that he is wide awake, and he will find scores in this neck o' the woods willing to help him make a noise that will at least attract the world's attention, if it doesn't get him the match with Dempsey. Read what Paddy says:
Mr. Romeo L. Dougherty,
Sporting Illustr. N. Y. Amster-
der
Dear Sir: After waiting patiently for several years for Jack Dempsey, the world's heavyweight champion, to give Harry Wills, my star performer, a chance at his title without success, exhausting every means to try and get a square deal for my colored warrior, abiding by the laws of the State Athletic Commission, functioning under the Walker Boxing Law, I hereby lay claim to Dempsey's title for my protege. Wills is ready to defend the world's heavyweight championship against all comers. Dempsey, Firpo, or anyone else. There will be no bars on any particular fighter.
I have thought the matter over carefully for some time before claiming the world's heavyweight championship for Wills and have done so only after realizing that we have been the victims of a huge hoax, have been buffeted around and stalled off for several years, so that Dempsey could meanwhile con-

"Cap" Wilson Reminds You
"Cap" Wilson is now enjoying a much earned vacation, and instead of hastening away to the seashore he is busy helping the crew of the Mooselight Ship to put the Salishing touches to the old boat, "Cap" says he has never seen so many pretty girls demanding reservations for the big trip, although the boat in the country have happened the ship with their presence. He says they seem to realize that the boat will be making an history and this time when she leaves New York Causey on the night of September 4.
veniently battle soft marks. The end of our patience has been reached and we believe the fair-minded, sport-loving public will back us in our claim.
What must a man do to get a match with Dempsey First, they asked Wills to kick Fred Fulton. He did that job in a couple of rounds. Then they foisted Bill Tate and other colored warriors on my man, attempting to belittle his fighting ability but without success. Wills proved to be their masters. Finally, after clearing all obstacles, did he get the chance he deserved with Dempsey? No!
More than a year ago we challenged Dempsey by placing a $2,500 forfeit with the State Athletic Commission, according to law. The board ruled that Wills was the logical contender for a match for the world's title. Articles were then and there signed, waiting only for a promoter to appear. Simon Flaherty, of the Queensboro Stadium, announced months back and recently that he stood ready to pull off the real "battle of the century," but still nothing doing on the part of Jack Kearns and his title-holder.
Now they are trying to put over a Luis Firpo match with Dempsey, a bout that all fair-minded sports know to be the biggest joke ever perpetrated on a sport-loving public. It will be even worse than the fiasco pulled off many years ago between Tommy Burns and Bill Squire, of Australia, which failed to go a round. Wills can take Firpo a match and everyone knows it, but that chase of Arentine led, the greatest "pull-up" fighter in the world, against Dempsey. Echo, none.
Thanking you for past courtesies extended to us in our effort to get rightful recognition for Wills and assuring you that my protege stands ready to meet all of the leading contenders, I beg to remain.
Yours in sport.

Bliven Still Pulling Hard For His Cuban Fighter
And Emil is Making Good and We Hope That the McMahons Will Give Him a Look in.
When it comes to shouting for a fighter from the managerial standpoint, Ben Bilven has it on quite a number of these gentlemen. Fortunately he is backed up by the performances of his boy, Emil Morro, for whom he is shouting and Emil is not fighting, far enough agay to make us imagine that his manager is also in the manufacturing business.
We have before us a number of clippings from towns not far removed from the big city, and we rise to remark if Emil received the same kind of stuff from the metropolitan dailies, nothing, short, of meeting Benny Leonard would be the result. Of course, Emil might musse Benneh's hair and there it may be, but after all is said and done, we believe that the McMahon boys, in charge of the Commonwealth Sporting Club, should give us a chance to see if Emil has really improved 100 per cent. Says Mr. Bliven:
New York City, Aug. 20.
Mr. Romeo Dougherty,
My Dear Mr. Dougherty: Again I am coming to the front for one of the best lightweight in America. I remember calling on you when I took up the management of Emil Morro and telling you I thought that he had the makings of a greatighter and I am sure I was not mistaken, as I am now told by other

people and high-class workers and it must be true.
He beat McNulty, when all the wise ones said was the gambit champ and the hardest-hitting boy in the world. I will agree that he is a terrible puncher, but, what is he going to do with the punch if he cannot land it?
Morro showed him that he, not him, was the prospect for that junior title and if we are given the chance we are bound to show them he is the champ.
Don't it beat the band what a man has to leave his own ballway in order to make the public and his friends know that he is good?
Morro is without doubt the best lightweight that Harcon has turned out since Benny. Leonard, but we cannot even get a shot at the Commonwealth Club, where his friends can see him.
The friends that saw him at the 15th Regiment would never know it was the same boy, for close sticks out all over Morro as a boxer, fighter and gentleman.
There purrt to be a, WHY put, Jesse McMahon as not to use Morro at the Commonwealth.
What say you?
Thanking you very kindly for the past favors and trusting he will get the publicity that is due him! I again thank you.

Governor Smith has decided that the votes of the Presidential delegates from the South mean more to him than the Dempsey-Wills match means to New York boxing fans, and those seeking to stage the big championship bout here have been warned not to attempt it.
AL DENIES IT.
As we are about to go to press word reaches us that Governor Smith has denied being responsible for the ban on the Wills-Dempsey fight. However, the colored people of Greater New York feel that as the man in position to see that the Boxing Commission plays fair with all hands, we feel that well might the Governor have committed the sin of commission as that of
Information of the attitude taken by a prison Smith comes from several, not reliable sources. It was first brought to the. Evening Telegraph's attention through one of the political heuchmen of a Presidential delegate from another state. This information was passed along to others and resulted in the formation of the Connecticut ydicate, headed by Thomas F. Reilly, of Stamford, and several influential politicians and business men of the Nutmeg State, and Reilly's visit to New York in an attempt to corral Kearns and get his signature to a contract. The information was verified by a local colored politician, who last night declared:
The Presidential Bae.
"Your information is absolutely correct, regret to say. Although the governor has been shown that his refusal to permit Mr. Dempsey and Mr. Wills to engage in their sporting contest here will certainly cost the Democratic party in New York two Assembly Districts, and probably the Governor is so overcome with his Presidential aspirations that he is willing to turn down some of the men who made him politically here in order to curry favor with certain Lily White Presidential delegates from the South.
"The voters of New York made Al Smith. The voters of New York, both white and black, want to see a straight, manly contest between Mr. Dempsey and Mr. Wills. Now, the Governor turns down these voters to satisfy his own personal ambitions regarding getting the Presidential nomination. He thinks more of the narrow backed Southern delegates who are tired heart and soul with Oscar Underwood than he does the men who have worked shoulder to shoulder with him here, and twice helped to put him in the Governor's chair.
"It is all right for Governor Smith to declare there is no color here. It is all right to point to the mixed bouts between whites and blacks of inferior calibre to move there is no color line in sport here. The fact remains that the Governor will not permit the only mixed bout of importance there is any wide demand to see—the contest between Mr. Dempsey and Mr. Wills.
"Last week a final attempt was made to induce the Governor not to get the bars down on a Dempsey-Wills meeting. The Governor had not changed his views one whit from the attitude he took several weeks ago, when we first found out how the wind was blowing, and sounded him out. Before the last ejection he was strong for a Dempsey-Wills contest. His views changed when his Presidential assignments began to get the better of him.
Off for Good in New York.
Putting the Dempsey-Willis contest off until after next year's convention is putting it off for now we far as New York is concerned. Twice the match has been made rp! hot here and then allowed to cool. It can't be beaten again. As far as New York goes the public doesn't want to wait until both Mr. Dempsey and Mr. Wills grow gray hairs and have it enter the ring on crutches. It is now or never. New York has lost the great contest. Al Smith has barred the states. Mr. barring the gate here to Dempsey and Wills he has thrown three Assembly Districts to the Republicans in the hopes that the Smith will desert Gecar Underwood and line up behind his banner. Unless I am mistaken in my understanding of sentiment in the South, however, Governor Smith's barring of Means, Dempsey and Wills will prove to be as bad politics as it is bad about.
"By putting his foot down on the match Governor Smith not only refuses Mr. Willis a square deal, but the millions of bating time a square deal. The Governor permits a beat between Mr. Dodgeguy and this Pirgo, a raw Argentine honor with only a year's experience, yet denies the fine a straight appointment constant between two of the most grimly matched houses in sporting history. With one punch the Governor knows the square deal out of heart."

as far as New York is concerned, there still is a possibility that the pair will meet this year. Unless Thomas F. Reilly, the Stamford promoter, is spoofing, he will be able to offer Dempsey more alluring terms than could be haped for in New York.
A Great Exhibition of Gameness at Queensboro
Wherein Danny Edwards, Though Losing, Won Another Host of Friends By Going Down With Colors Flying.
Tex Rickard, the Texas Negro hater and the man who is really at the helm of boxing in Greater New York and who is successfully keeping Harry Wills out of a fight for the championship, would have felt very bad last Tuesday evening at the Queensboro Athletic Club had he been present to witness the demonstration staged by a colored boy even though that colored boy was the loser in a fight which had drawn almost 8,000 fans to the Long Island palace of fistfighters.
And let me say right here that the vast majority of those cheering were white people, the handful of colored people present not bexix large enough to make up the proverbial baker's dozen or a coronal's guard. When Danny Edwards crowded through the ropes to face Abe Goldstein, a hoarse shout went up, which attested the popularity of the little colored bantamweight champion of the world with the white folks and many figured that again they would be given an opportunity to see the dancing little colored boy winning a fight, but against whom the usual decision would be chalked up.
But they saw an entirely different Danny Edwards. In fine mime up to 24 hours before the fight, the colored boy for the first time in many a day crawled through the ropes slick but with the bulldog tenacity of putting in an appearance and keeping faith with the thousands who have applauded him during the time he has been showing around here. Although he appeared to be hitting his stride up to the third or fourth round, it was seen that something was wrong with Danny, and the white newspaperman, who were out in full force, started to comment among themselves and shake their heads.
Getting into the tenth round they saw that Goldstein was enjoying an opportunity and an ad-vantage which few white fighters have had the chance to enjoy since Danny came here from the West, and that is that he really appeared to show that he was not at his best, and each and every daily in Greater New York and New Jersey, the morning after the fight, came out with a statement to that effect.
But when the 14th round came we saw why Edwards has enjoyed the popularity-which has been his, and that was his exhibition of sameness which brought the throng to its feet, despite the fact that Goldstein had his followers working overtime. With a body tired from exhaustion, brought about by his indisposition, which those of us on the inside knew before he entered the ring. Edwards was staggered with clean shots to the jaw, which would have taken the heart out of many another bantam, but tenaciously, he clung to that something which engaged him on to fight, and time after time was he the resident of those blows.
But he was human, and when he work'd down it flashed into the mind of his handlers that Danny could not keep up the fight, as he across one time without taking the court. The second time he again attempted to take after the judge had told off five, and not willing to see their hey take a change while unable to guard himself, those in his corner sent the swollen feline into the ring. The crowd must have sensed that Edwards was about to rise after taking a count of alms, and when he left the ring he was given an evidence that took away the ether of defiance from the heart of little Dan.
About Things Theatrical
When the late Bert Williams passed away, thousands of people throughout the country considered it a personal loss, as Mr. Williams had become a fixture in millions of homes through these splendid records which were being successively produced by the Columbia Phonograph Company. In a race to secure a man to take the place of Williams and, incidentally, corner some of the matter which Williams had been sending out on Columbia, the majority of the reaper-producing companies in New York City sought to put Edete Hunter's signature to a long-term contract after his remarkable success as leading com-
But Hunter showed a cautiousness which one would associate with a man of more mature years, and that it redeemed to his benefit is seen in the fact that to-day he is carrying in his inside pocket one of the best contracts ever issued by the Vistor Company. Refusing to be swayed by his many friends, who insisted that he was the only logical man in America to take the place of Bert Williams, he steadfastly refused to jump at the many propositions being put forward by many of our mushroom composers and song writers, and associated himself with the one man in America who can at this time do much in helping him to continue the wonderful record made by Bert Williams, and that man is Alex Rogers, who for years furnished the material which did much in helping Williams to the success he attained on the records.
Calling in his associates, Luckythy Roberts, Mr. Rogers, after arrangements suitable to all parties, decided to furnish the lyrics, with Roberts furnishing the music for Hunter's work on the records and the efforts of the combination will soon be given to the public in records which, we dare say, will make an instantaneous hit with the people. No stone is being left unturned to produce the very best along these lines, and word coming to us from the recording room of the Vister Company is the most enthusiastic received in some time occasioned by the work of one of our high-class artists.
In the meantime, Hunter continues his success at the head of the show, which he also wrote, and, after peaking them in at the Gayety Theatre in Baltimore for the past week and a half, closed their engagement there Wednesday of the present week to go on the read on the Shubert time. The Baltimore Daily Post and other publications in Baltimore gave the comedian and his company some of the best press notices of any company during the past few years, which we make bold to predict will also hold good in the many other places where the production will show.
Opening in Harrisonburg on August 23, the big show will start on its big swing around the Stubbert Circuit prepared to repeat the remarkable success of the past few months. During the time he is on the road, Hunter will devote his spare time to working another show and, with the experience gained from the present vehicles and the assistance of those who will assume the responsibility for producing same, there is every reason to believe that a bright future awaits the youngest comedian, now at the head of the heap, and the only one to individually draw the praise Hunter has from critics, not only in the metropolitan dailies, but in newspapers wherever the show has appeared.

Race in League Waxes Hot as Season Grows
(Preston News Service.)
CHICAGO, Ill., July 24—The race in the Negro National Baseball League has proven "anthing but the runaway many rabid fans predicted at the start of the season.
Now surprises have been springing up almost daily, and not the least of these has been the wonderful spirit of Bruce Petways Detroit Stars, who in one short month, have risen from fourth place to first and are now the sensation of the league.
Guided and piloted by the cagay catcher-manager, the club, with a veteran pitching staff, augmented by some youngsters, who are really THE CLASS, the Wolverines are going at a pace right now which will do more for the good of baseball, if kept up, than any other chance to have ever happened.
Detroit is baseball cray, and on every corner nothing but wonderful showing of the Stars is being discussed. Manager Pewray has always but surely built himself an organization that i...a credit, not only in Duggett and the owners of the club, but in the entire baseball world. And the base is better now than at any time since the advent of the older league. But 10 points occur in the Stars and the A. B. G.

The Butlers Entertain
On Monday evening of this week Mr. and Mrs. T. H. Butler, of 47 East 123d street, entertained a number of city and out-of-town guests in honor of the Misses Camille Saxon, Frances Smythe and Marietta James here on a visit from Augusta, Ga.
The charming Mrs. Butler, who will be remembered as one of the leaders of the younger set just a few years back in the days when her brother Edgar (Little Perkle) Perkinson was helping to make basketball history, seem to have added to a personality which as a young matron drew so many of her friends to her hospitable home.
Until an early hour the guests enjoyed dancing and whist, lunch being served at intervals. Among those present were the Messrs. Bert Pyles, Edgar Perkinson, Dave Watkins, John Adams, Walter Freeman, Clarence West, here on a visit from Dayton, O.; Mr. and Mrs. Blakely, the Misses Beatrice Coler and Roberta Williams, also from Georgia; Misa Parker, of Columbus, O.; Mrs. Madlyn McPherson and Mrs. Madlyn Hart, the latter here spending time from Los Angeles, Calif.
Lane Managing the Lincoln
Charlie Lane, who took a flier in the drama here some years ago when things were beaming on seventh avenue and it was "the thing" to patronize the thrilling plays, blew into town this week, and the secret was out relative to things theatrical in Washington. Jay Clifford has been shelved and now Charlie is the big manager at the handmade Lincoln Theatre built by the Crandall interests for colored patronage on U street. N. W. Lane has outlined a policy which he believes will do much in keeping the big house packed, and he has other plans for the coming season which will be announced later.
Packed House Greeted "Liza" Opening at Lafayette Theatre Monday
Which Reminds Us That We Have Entered the Regular Theatrical Season With Big Shows Going Out After Rehearsing in This City.
It was a packed house that turned out to greet "Liza" at the Lafayette Theatre on Monday night and from all appearances that audience went away pleased and all indications point to a banner week for the production which will bring Irvin C. Miller into the third week of being the individual to furnish the entertainment at this house at this time of the year.
Although "Liza" did not fare so well down on Broadway in spite of the long run at two theatres, the production when it hit the road came into its own and received the mark of a standard offering which included those behind it to garner bookings on the best time and the week at the Lafayette is but the start of a season which promises to be a big one.
Which recalls the departure of Miller and Lyle at the head of their new show last week for Washington, D. C., where they are appearing for two weeks with other time booked before making the bid for popularity on Broadway. With the best backing behind them, the friends of Miller and Lyle are looking forward to a show which, as an attraction, will hold its own with "Shuffle Along," and from all reports we gather that it is all that is expected of it, although New York will refuse to accept anything but first hand information.
Whitney and Tutt are also in town getting ready to go into rehearsal with their new offering which, it is said, is being put-out by responsible people, and the "Hoover Comedians" are also looking forward to a successful season in what they tell us in their best effort. Noble Sisale and Euble Blake are going out at the head of the original "Shuffle Along" which has been rehearsing her for the past few weeks, and they will take the show over the time not filled up to the time they closed last season.
We have it from what we, consider reliable sources that the Brown and DeMont show will not be seen at the Lafayette, although when they left here to fill dates to whip the production into shape, it was understood they would be at the Lafayette Theatre early in September.
Going back to "Liza" we find that we miss Emmett Anthony very much. With this exception the company remains intact with the addition of a few others, including Snow Fisher and Miss. Reavis, Greenlee and Drayton continues to be one of the big features with the offering, as is Miss Gertrude Saunders. Doe Doe Green, Irvin Miller and Billy Mills are still holding down the comedy end, whil's Margaret Simms in the role continues to make good. Others who have always pleased our public are Will A. Cook and Alonzo Fenderson.

Rush Memorial Sunday School Outing Season's Premier Event
1,000 Mothers and Children Given Outing at Pelham Bay Park.
On Wednesday, August 25, the mothers and children of Harlem were given the most elaborate entertainment in the way of an Outing which they have ever had, the pleasure of witnessing by the Mosera, Immarman Bros, and Moe and Connie, under the auspices of Rush Memorial Sunday School, Rev. G. M. Oliver, pastor.
Long before the appointed hour had arrived, crowds were assembled at the church on West 1838 St. There was no discriminating. Everybody received an invitation and about 1,000 accepted. Representatives of all denominations were present, also many out of town guest, and everybody was cared for absolutely free of charge.
There were nine of the largest sight seeing buses available and they were filled to capacity at an early hour and on their way to Pelham Bay Park.
Everything possible was done for the happiness and protection of all. At the park. Meerser, immerman and Moe and Connie had stationed in the most conspicuous place, Allen, the well-known caterer, who had prepared refreshments in abundance for this large gathering, and everybody was served and all ate to their heart's content. In the school, I did the supervision of the School, under the supervision of E. Holman, Supt. I, Ruffin, Assistant Supt. and E. Wilkes, Secy, formed a Committee and looked after the interest of mother and child.
The donors of this cutting are sincere and devoted friends to the people of this community and they have allied themselves with Bash Church to do all the good they can to help carry on the work of uplifting humanity. The large crowd gave three cheers for these splendid men who had caused them to spend such a pleasant day and without any financial sacrifice on their part. Last year these same friends rendered the same service although just about half as many accepted the invitation. If we may judge each succeeding year by the preceding one, we dare say that Messrs. Immerman Broe and McCormick Connie will need twice as many bodies to accommodate those who appreciate their effort in the cause.
The work being done by Dr. Oliver at Bash is highly commendable. He has the co-operation of each and every member, which indicates that peace and sincerity of purpose are reigning there.
The Sunday School like all other auxiliaries is putting forth every effort to bring up its quota for the Fall Rally which is now in progress. The money raised in the Rally will be used to further beautify the church, renovating basement, setting up a recreation center and a Grill Room. Dr. and Mrs. Oliver left Friday to spend the day needed rest. During his absence the pulpit will be filled by the Rev. A. R. Cooper, for many years pastor of Bethel Church. Dr. Oliver will again be at his post the first Sunday in September.

Negro Janitor Copies Famous Oil Painting
(Preston News Service.)
KANSAS CITY, Mo, Aug. 13.
Officials and workers in the Union Station here cannot believe their eyes when they behold a copy of a famous oil painting produced by Albert Jackson, a colored jammer at the station. Going about in his usual manner silencing the mop over the spacious floors, his co-workers and other denizens about the station little thought that Jackson was fit for anything other than to massage the floors of the station.
Jackson just finished and put on display in the office of V. I. Bell, station master, a copy of one of Corregio's best known paintings, "Birth of Christ." In his surprise at the prevailing blue tone of the painting by Jackson, the visitor is likely to overlook the fact that the janitor-painter has done a very commendable job of copying. What actually was done was to copy a reproduction of a steel engraving. The engraving was done presumably from the original by A. Lefevre. And that accounts for the blue color scheme. The painting shows the Mother Mary, St. Joseph's heavenly host hovering above, and, of course, the Christ-
The unusual thing about the work of Jackson is that the light is made to radiate from the Child gently and tenderly rather than from an easily source. The copy is about 12x6 inches, and three monos were required for its production. With thrift unusual in the profession, Jackson has set down the figures in the matter and finds that the paint used cost him exactly $11.50.

"MAMMY" MONUMENT
MAY NOT BE BUILT
WASHINGTON, Aug. 20. Widespread misunderstanding is prevalent throughout the country concerning the proposed erection of the so-called "Black Mammy" statue, which proposition was generally opposed by the colored press and people. Another error largely current is to the effect that a site had been selected by Courress. Such a bill passed the Senate, but no action was taken by the House, whose concurrence must be recorded before the monument can be located. If the House maintains its attitude, the location of the monument may be indemnitely deferred.

The Vamp and The Virgin A Serial Story of Negro Life and Love
Sixth Chapter.
Christopher Bowling, an unsephilated 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. But for some reason the Virgin is invited to call again and again he takes the same liberties with the beautiful Beatrix, but is interrupted in the act of kissing her by the arrival of Mr. Marley, Beatrix's father.
OR an instant there was stillness, the sulphurous stillness of a trench just after a shell has burst. On one
side of the parlor swayed Beatrix, dishevelled, her face a grayish white, her hair down over her shoulders; on the other, the Virgin, his neck still gripped from behind by a hand he had, not yet seen, stood paralyzed with fright and shame. One tense moment, then Beatrix's father gave his neck a twist and a shake and flung him violently toward the door.
"Out of my house, you young cur! Out of here!"
Beatrix's father was a big, strong man in a rage; he followed the Virgin as if to kick him. But Beatrix darted past him and up to the Virgin, and asked the Virgin's arm.
"No, no!" she cried. "Don't you go. Chris. Father, you don't know what you're doing."
"I don't, eh?" he shouted, his big, black-mustached face swelling with anger.
"You don't, you don't. I won't let him go like this; he's done nothing wrong."
serving all of you and I don't think there is anything so very terrible.
"No," growled Edward Marley, "you didn't see 'em when I did."
"Beatrix," said the mother, "tell mamma what you were doing worm your father came in."
"I was kissing Chris." said the girl defiantly.
"Why don't you tell how you were hugging him, too?" grunted her father.
"Yes, I was doing that, too."
"What is all this?" said a calm voice at the stairway, and an elderly lady entered the room.
"What is it!" thundered Beatrix's father. "I open the front door, I happen to look into the parlor, and what do I see? What—"
"Mother, mother!" cried Beatrix, "father doesn't understand at all. He thinks Chris—"
"Who?" asked her mother, still calm.
That asking young hound there!" broke in the father, "I try to kick him out of the house and she jumps between us."
"Edward, Edward," said Mrs. Marley, putting her hands on his chest.
"See, mother?" said Beatrix desperately, "You can see Chris has done nothing to be——"
"What do you mean by anything?" the father burst in. He termed to his wife, "Look at her with her hair all over her face, just as I found her, and then trying to tell me——"
"Oh, father!" grenaded Beatrix, "can't you take my word for it!"
"No! he shouted, and his voice made the chandeliers rattle. "I know what I saw."
"Father!" screamed the girl. She sprang away from the mute Virgin and faced her parents like a fury, the blood rushing to her face and her eyes flaming. Never had she so defied her father.
"You insult me without giving me a chance to clear myself. Then I won't try to clear myself. Then I told you I was innocent; I told you he was innocent. It's the truth, and if you are determined not to believe me, you need not." "You think I'm a fool, girl? A mighty innocent picture you are, with your——" "Now, Edward," said Ben, tribru mother, who was the costest head present. "but we not come around. I've been ab-
serving all of you and I don't think there is anything so very terrible."
"No," growled Edward Marley, "you didn't see 'em when I did."
"Beatrix," said the mother, "tell mamma what you were doing woon your father came in."
"I was kissing Chris," said the girl defiantly.
"Why don't you tell how you were hugging him, too?" grunted her father.
"Yes, I was doing that, too," she replied boldly. "Furthermore, it was all on my own initiative. I enticed Chris: he had no idea of kissing me at first; he never in his life kissed any girls but me."
"My God, Beatrix!" said her father, "You let him tell you that."
"I did," she said, unhaken,
"and I believed him; I believe
him yet. He is the only young
man in the world that I'd be
have it of."
The Virgin was at last stirred
to speech by his chivalric instincts. He could not stand by
and let Beatrix take all the
blame.
"It didn't happen that way!"
he burst out. It didn't. It's
my fault. She didn't want to
kiss me; I made her."
"And for making her, you
young dog" said Edward Marley.
"I'll break——"
"I'm no dog, Mr. Marley!" the
Virgin broke in. Defending
Beatrix had brought him back
to himself, which meant that no
man could call him a dog with
impunity.
"He didn't make me kiss
him," said Beatrix. "he's only
trying to shield me."
"If you hit him you hit me!"
said Beatrix, rushing back to the Virgin.
"You get out of here, and don't let me ever see you around hero again."
"No, me!" said Beatrix, holding on to the Virgin. "I won't have him imitated like that. If you drive him out I'll go out with him."
"Beatrix!" said her mother.
"I will, I will!" He kissed me; he had the right to kiss me.
"What right?" said her father sharply.
"I love him!"
"Buster!!" cried the Virginia.
"My child, my child," said her mother. "I do not even know the young man."
"My name is Christopher Bowling, Mr. Marbury. I am a sophomore at Harvard and my home is at Newbern on the
EDITORIALS FEATURE ARTICLES LOCAL AND SOCIETY NEWS CLASSIFIED ADS
Hudson, New York. If you wish to know more about me will give you my parents a dress," said the Virgin.
"A college student!" said I ward Marley. "So you're out of those young ducks who can here and amuse yourselves in four years at, our daughter expense and then go away wilt out caring what sorrow, leave behind you."
"You don't know Chris, ther," said Beatrix, again indignant. "This is the only Boston or Cambridge house he been inside of. He would not have been in this house but an accidental meeting. I'm only girl in Boston that I know."
"I suppose he's got you fleaving that, too," grumbled his father.
"But it's true, father. Don
you suppose I've saked all the
other girls if they know him!
"\hat. was the accidental
meeting you spoke of!" ask
her mother.
"It was Monday evening tw
weeks ago——"
"And you're kissing him a
ready!" cried her father.
"Yes, sir," she said, with mock nickname. "I had just spent the afternoon at Borth Nelson's in Cambridge and was on my way home. At the transfer station at Harvard Square stopped to watch the ants fight between the sophomore and the freshman. There were hundreds of them; they crowed ed upon the pavement and was caught in the crowd. Chris saw me and came to my rescue I had been knocked about in the crowd. I was scared, and I fainted. He carried me into the station and brought me to He offered to see me home safely and I waited till he went to his dormitory and changed his clothes. Then he saw me home. We've never been introducted."
"And from what I saw, you don't need it now," said her father, who could not get the picture out of his mind. What father could?
"But, my child," said her mother, "you never told me anything about it."
"No, mamma. I promised Chris to keep it secret."
"Why a secret?" said her mother reprovingly. "And why such a rapid acquaintance with a man you had never seen Before?"
"You don't know Chris. Mrs. never been seen with a girl and he deared the boys would tame him awfully. They call him Virgin, that's his regular nickname; no one ever thirsts of calling him Bowling or Christopher. And he was not really a stranger to me. I know him from hearing so much about him; the boys who come here—you know them all, mamma. Will Reiss, Nick Hightwell, Jill Worden, and the rest—they were always full of jokes and stories about the Virginia. So our meeting wasn't so very irregular, after all."
"Oh, I see," said her mother, "Mr. Bowling, I am pleased to meet you. I did not know how much we are indebted to you."
She extended her hand and the Virgin took it. He had found a friend in this elderly lady with the wise eyes and benevolent face.
"New you, too, page," said Dostrik.
"I guess I'll wait awhile" said her father dayly.

Equal Rights
League Meets
The New York Harlem Branch of the National Equal Rights League held an enthusiastic meeting Sunday afternoon in the Grace Congregational Church, on West 136th street, at which resolutions were adopted and ordered sent to the program committee for the coming convention of the American Bar Association, urging that federal legislation against mob-murder be formulated, and the danger to respect for law by the tolerated nullification of some sections to be added to the features of the association's proposed "Constitution Week" program.
C. T. A. French, the president, conducted the meeting, Dr. Julia P. H. Coleman, of Washington, and Wm. Monroe Trotter, of Boston, national officers, were the speakers. The meeting voted an endorsement of the action of the league's national conference here, just closed, in expressing "unavoidable dissatisfaction" over President Coolidge selecting an avowed, powerful political enemy of the race from a southern State as his private secretary. Further remonstrance was also planned.
Other resolutions of the conference endorsed and ordered sent to the President was one urging that Mexico be required not to set up any race or color immigration bar for United States citizens as a condition of recognition, and one asking the President to put colored doctors at the head of the medical staff at Tumkeegue.

NEW YORK AMSTERDAM NEWS, WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 22, 1923
District Grand Lodge Number Two
BY S. A. GIBBS
District Grand Lodge No. 2. Grand United Order of Odd Fellows, State of New York, has undergone a complete change. All reactionaries have been swept from office, and the Grand Old Order, administered by a splendid group of liberals who can work together for good, will move onward and upward to a higher place among Grand bodies of the Empire State.
The 10th biennial and 34th session of the District Grand Lodge, held August 7th, 8th and 9th, in Rochester, will go down to posterity as the starting point of greater progress for the G. U. O. of O. F. in this jurisdiction. Not only for the lodges, but for the Households as well.
From the time that District Grand Master Harry J. Edwards and District Grand Most Noble Governor of Johnson read their annual addresses, it was evident that old things would be done away with and all things would be made now.
K. of P. to Meet
Soon in Boston
The weather was ideal throughout the session, and the good people of Rochester did everything possible to make the stay of the team as comfortable as possible. One. Aside from the signal victory of a complete progressive ticket, perhaps the most important feature of the convention was the hospitality of the people of the home. Some of the hosts, Doug Lashley, gave credits to the Bro. J. W. Derham and the local committee. The grand street parade, which was scheduled for the afternoon of the sixth, was ordered off by the Master because of the death of Brot. J. W. Derham. Lashley got a chance to show his bright new uniform. That evening he donned his fatigue coat and white trousers, planned his many medals to his breast, and went marching round the town. So the team was represented after all. That was another outstanding feature.
There were 21 new delegates to this convergence, and every one seemed eager to have "a change," and would not rest until they got it. They were determined; and when Bros. Lee and Lashley, representing the auditors, made their report they became more determined. The auditors were: Theodore Aylmer of Tarrytown; Jas. P. A. Lashley, of New York; Ernest Chandler, of New York City. They were opposed by John H. Mitchell, of Brooklyn; E. W. M. Butler, of Yonkers, and J. L. Francis, of New York City, and wiped off the map.
The administration ticket carried the names of Harry J. Edwards, of New York City, for Grand Master; Rev. W. H. Parker, of Buffalo, for Deputy Grand Master; Chas. J. for Deputy Brooklyn, for District Grand Secretary, for District Grand Treasurer, and N. Ewing of New York City, for District Grand Director.
Those commonly referred to as the Adair group presented a ticket carrying the names of the Rev. J. Carrying the names of the New York. or Grand Master; of Geneva. Doug. Dam, of Rochester, for Deputy Grand Master; James F. Adair, of Brooklyn, for District Grand Secretary; Joseph L. Pritchard, of New York, for District Grand Officer; George H. Avery, of Nyack, for Nick. of York, the Grand rector. The entire ticket headed by Harry J. Edwards was elected, 33 to 21. Most of those defeated caught the first train out of Rochester without waiting to congratulate the victors or to see them installed.
After singing "For He Is a Hearty Oddfellow" and giving honors, all made a circuit of the station of the Grand Master and shook his hand, wishing him and his newly formed cabinet God-speed, after they voted almost unanimously to come to Brooklyn in 1925.
Postscript—In the Grand Household a group referred to as the Prattts ring was completely annihilated and the following elected: Sister Lena Johnson, of Auburn, District Grand Most Noble Governor; Sister Sarah A. Poole, of Brooklyn, District Grand Right No.1 Governor; Sister Sarah A. Clarke of New York City, District Worthy Registerer; Sister George Lewis, of Albany, Grand Treasurer, and Sister Lissie Lippins, of Syracuse, District Grand Director.

ST. MARK'S M. E.
On Sunday, Aug. 19th, the Church and tent services of St. Mark's M. E. Church were attended by unusually large congregations during the entire day. The pastor, Dr. Robinson, was the minister of the internal service in the Church and delivered a powerful sermon which will linger long in the memory of every individual who attended the service. Text: Genesis: 14th Chapter and latter clause of the 23rd verse. Theme: "Father is Rich." At the tent service in the evening, Rev. Holmes of Waynesboro, Ga., preached a very practical sermon which greatly moved his hearers. Rev. Holmes is in New York, visiting his sister, Mrs. Josephine Frasier, (nine Holmes) who is a prominent member of St. Mark's Church and one of the popular Public School Teachers.
Rev. R. A. Bolden. Associate Pastor of St. Mark's, was the occupant of the pulpit in the tent in the morning and delivered a very eloquent and forceful sermon. Bolden also conducted the Men's Rally. Bolden's o'clock Singing was led by Dr. Robinson. Next Sunday, Aug. 26, will be Women's Rally in the tent at 3 o'clock. The services will be conducted by Mrs. Emma Bell. The weekly services in the tent are continuing to draw large crowds to raise $15,000 for the entire period of nine weeks covering the time devoted to the tent services. Last Thursday evening. Mrs. Robinson, wife of the pastor made a very timely and appealing address. The Sunday School was fairly attended and the collection good. Mr. A. W. Monroe and Mrs. Mildred Turner gave interesting talks on "Stephen, the Martyr."

Cooper is filling the pulpit at the Dr. Cooper preached one of his messages, his writing his text from St. Luke 10:28-"And who is my neighbor?" The sermon was very practical and the question was plainly answered. The answer was based on the biblical illustration of kindness the Jew by the Samaritan as the Jew between Jericho and Jerusalem, sick and fall of sorces, showing

that our neighbor is anyone whom we can help in the time of need. And that in the time of isolation assistance from those whom we least expect is more to be apprehended. Many out-of-town folks worshipped at Rush, among whom were Mr. C.

Ukeleles
Ukeleles
YOUNG MAN AND YOUNG WOMAN, what are you going to do with that ukelele when the snow begins to fall? You cannot cover yourself with it to protect your body from the cold and you cannot eat it. It is all right to have it. It has given you much innocent merriment and hour after hour of recreation. Is it all you have to face the winter with? You learned how to play it in about ten days. In the same length of time you could have prepared yourself for a Civil Service examination or planned to make yourself more useful to your employer. Have you placed all of your eggs in the musical basket of pleasure or have you put a few of them in the basket of serious thought for your future and the futures of those depend-ent upon you?
Hootch Joints Thriving
HOOTCH JOINTS in Harlem continue to be as busy as ever. Drunken men may be seen staggering out of these dens of poison at all hours of the day. Between 135th and 140th streets on Lenox avenue there are not less than fourteen of these places and they are as obvious to the eye as was the former licensed liquor saloon.
BETWEEN 135TH AND 136TH there are not less than three; between 136th and 137th there is one; in the next block going north there are four; in the 138th to 139th one; and between 139th and 140th no less than five. There are others, but these leave no doubt as to their character.
Who Fattened the Snake
WE HAVE REPEATEDLY made the assertion that a Democrat is a Democrat in New York State, Alabama or Washington. Al Smith, governor of New York, has been considered a good Democrat. He was elected by white and Negro Democratic voters of New York on a platform of equality before the law and fairness to white and Negro citizens. IN OUR JANUARY 3 ISSUE we warned that "when Al Smith steps out of New York State into national politics, he will be dominated by that same rabid anti-Negro group of Senators and Congressmen from the Southern states who oppose fairness to the Negro." Governor Smith has not yet stepped out of this state but the presidential bee is in his bonnet and we now behold our Governor currying favor with the "lily-white" Democrats of the South for the nomination for President, by strangling the Dempsey-Wills bout.
WE WONDER what our Democratic friends, among whom are a large number of sportsmen, think of "Al" now? We wonder if they will admit that in supporting good Northern Democrats for office they are fattening snakes who will bite them as soon as they turn their eyes towards the nation's Capitol?
Protests and Votes
IT MUST SURELY become apparent to thinking Negroes that the good to be derived from continued protests is limited and that that limit has about been reached. We protest against every wrong inflicted upon us and most of the time our action stops there. Meanwhile, our fate is in the hands of "practical politicians" who have never been known to make a decision as the result of a protest, or a million of them. When our actions against wrongs stop with protests, the protests go into the waste basket and the wrongs go on as before.
A RAFT OF THESE PROTESTS are now going up against the appointment of C. Bascom Slemp as Secretary to President Coolidge, a "lily-white" of Virginia who opposed the passage of the Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill. Of course, Slemp's reputation happens to be a little tainted as a result of his being accused of accepting bribes for positions in the U. S. Civil Service, which is unfortunate, even if the charges are false.
IF SLEMP is the "practical politician" he is credited with being, he is entirely subservient to the will of his bosses and his party. He will support the Dyer Anti-Lynching or,nv other bill his party demands that he support, but remember that this demand must
be backed up, not with protests, but with votes.
HERE IN HARLEM we have 150,000 people but the actual voting in the two districts in which colored people live is far below what it should be for so many people. Here in New York more than in any other city and state in the nation, politicians listen to voters and to voters only. While decent and so-called intelligent people are sending protests to the Mayor, the Governor or the President, crooks, thieves, gunmen, selfish Negro leaders and whites who wish to place stumbling blocks in our paths, are voting, voting, voting, one, two and three times, early and often. IF YOU WANT TO VOTE you must register between October 8-13. If you do not register you cannot vote. Requirements are one year in the state, four months in the county and thirty days in the district. Then should you have occasion to protest against a wrong or to endorse a right, you will be in a position to do so as a voter and not as a protestor alone. Join a political organization, vote in the primaries and the regular elections.
PROTEST WITH YOUR BALLOT.
A Texan Abroad
RUNNING TRUE TO FORM, an American signing himself "Texan," has addressed a letter to the Paris editor of the Chicago Tribune, in which he suggests that the French Government permit certain Montmartre cafes to draw a color line. He also told the editor how glad he was to meet a colored man from South Carolina, but "there is no use concealing the fact." he says, "that it is a most painful sight for Americans to see Negroes dancing with white women."
HIS LETTER IN FULL FOLLOWS:
To the Editor of The Tribune:
Sir: It seems to me that the Negro question, which has finally struck France via the American tourist, could be very easily arranged by a little goodwill on both sides. Although I come from Texas and share the ideas of most Southerners on this problem, I can see that there is an entirely different angle to the question over here.
I have been asked many times by Frenchmen: "Why don't you like the Negroes in America?" I have always replied: "But we do like the Negroes. It is only when they insist on mingling with the whites that there is trouble. The Negroes in the South understand this, and as a result there is little trouble. We understand each other down there.
I met a Negro from South Carolina the other day here in Paris. I was glad to see him and he was glad to see me. It was certainly good to hear the familiar accent again, and to talk things over.
But there is no use concealing the fact that it is a most painful sight for Americans to see Negroes dancing with white women. And it is bad for France, too. Most Americans who have visited France return home with a great and sincere admiration for these people with so much courage and genius. But the Southerner is saddened when he thinks of the indiscriminate mingling of the white and black races that is permitted in certain stratas of society here.
I think that if the French Government would permit certain cafes and dancing places in the Montmartre to draw the color line it would solve the problem, for the Americans would go exclusively to those places. Many disagreeable incidents would thus be avoided.
TEXAN.
"TEXAN'S" LETTER IS ALL RIGHT—to him and other narrow-minded Americans like him who, not satisfied with making a laughing stock of the Statue of Liberty here, desire to make a laughing stock of Liberty in France. But, France is a sovereign power, and it is up to "Texan" to obey her laws or return to the bloody State of Texas from which he came.
EXPRESSED BY CONTEMPORARIES
Don't Prejudge and Misjudge President Coolidge
(From the Pittsburgh American.)
Negroes who do no thinking for themselves have too often been misled in the past. They have trusted politicians, leaders" and others who have failed them finally. Some politicians and "leaders" have shamefully misused the influence and power invested in them by the poor blinded masses of the race in the country. Instead of bread, the people have received stones as a reward for their faith and trust. Hitherto it has seemed sufficient to endure politicians without any natural trust of the class. But the time has come when the blindest can hardly ask a politician to guide him without the risk of being shoved into a pitfall in the daytime or during the darkest night. It remains, therefore, for all Negroes to begin now to develop self-reliance, to take their welfare into their own hands and think and work with the rest of the Nation bent upon restoring the world to order.
The welfare of the multitude of Negroes in America, is of far more important consideration than the political fortunes of any individual. If every one of the race will accept this truth and hold to it there is the possibility of greater good than formerly. The habit of delegating the task of thinking to any particular group or any of its spokesmen is a dangerous one. It may mean the Negro of the responsibility and duty of independent thinking in political matters. Then when the results are disappointing, we turn to blaming those to whom we have delegated too much influence and power in representing us.
We must not fall into the error of beginning to appraise the administration of President Coolidge before he completes it. We should avoid unreasonable and unjustifiable criticism of his acts. We should not make the mistake of choosing him as leader of the Republican Party and the candidate of 1924 before he has been selected as such by the delegates of the National Republican Convention. It will be well for Negroes not to prejudice or misjudge President Coolidge. We can avoid any of the possible mistakes, if Negroes of this country will do nothing for themselves than politicians have been doing. Negroes will be helped in this particular by considering the fact that "Every man for himself—and God for us all" is the maxim by which politicians of every breed, party and race him and work.

IXON was apparently unmoved. He responded with charming courtesy, his well-modulated voice and even
tones in sharp contrast to the bluster and nysteria or the other. "The belief that the history of the Negro began with his slavery in the New World, while popular, is highly erroneous. The black man, like the Aztec, was civilized when the dominant branches of the Caucasian variety were savages. You will remember, sir, that Herodotus, the Father of History, an eye-witness, distinctly mentions the black skins and woolly hair of the Egyptians of his day. In Book II, Chapter 104, of his history he says: 'I believe the Colehians are a colony of Egyptians, because, like them, they have black skins and woolly hair.' Aristotle in his "Physiognomy", Chapter VI, distinctly mentions the Ethiopians as having woolly hair and the Egyptians as being black-skinned. Count M. C. de Volney, author of 'The Ruins of Empire,' says: 'The ancient Egyptians were real Negroes of the same species as the other present natives of Africa.' A glance at the Sphinx or at any of the ancient Egyptian statues in the British Museum will confirm these statements.
When I saw the statue of Amenophep II, I was immeasured by the facial resemblance to Jack Johnson. I have seen Negroes here and in Africa with a strong resemblance to King Sahura of the Y Dynasty. By the light of modern research it does appear as if white-skinned humanity got its civilization from the black-skinned variety and even the original. Volney says: "To the face of Negroes, the object of our extreme contempt, we give our arts, science and even the very use of speech" and with a resemblance to the production of great men by the Negro—"
The passenger, who had been fledging in his chair, now interrupted testify. "But what about the Negro's debased condition in the scale of civilization? Look at the millions of Negroes in Africa little better than gorillas! They are still selling their own flesh and blood, eating human flesh and carrying on their horrible voodoo! All of the white race is civilized and all the other races, to some extent. Consider the traditions of the white man and all it means! Look at the vast incomprehensible achievements of the white man, the railroads, the cities, the magnificent edifices, the wireless telegraph, the radio the ships of the airy-eye, consider all the marvels of science. What has the white man not done? He has weighed the atom and the star with perfect accuracy. He has probed the uttermost recesses of infinity and faithomed the darkest mysteries of the ocean; he has challenged the lightning for speed and equilized it; he has competed with the eagle in the air, and outstripped him; has rivaled the fish in his native element. In fact, there is not one single opposing force in Nature that he has not bent to his adamant will. He has excelled even the excellence of Nature. Consider, too, the philosophies, the religions, the enobling works of art and of literature. Has the Negro anything to compare? Has he anything at all to beast of Nothing! Absolutely nothing! Anyway, the face of the Negro is the face of facts, things patient to even the most ignorant, you tell me the Negro is the equal of the breed of supermen—wonder-men—I represent! Really this child-like credulity of yours reaches the acme of absurdity. More than ever do I perceive a Negro is incapable of reasoning."
And he caught for breath as he lolled back in his chair, while a supreme smile of satisfaction lit his features.
Dixon, who had been listening patiently, was seemingly unaffected, for he responded composedly: "The white man's civilization is only a continuation of that which was passed on to him by the Negro, who has simply retrogressed. 'Civilizations,' as Spiller has pointed out, are meteoric, bursting out of obscurity only to plunge back again." Macedonia, for example. In our own day we have seen the decline of Artec and Inca civilization. Of the early history of man we know nothing definite. Prior even to paleolithic man there might have been civilizations excelling our own. In the heart of Africa, explorers may yet unearth maps of some extinct Negro civilization in a manner similar to the case of Assyria forgotten for 2,000 years, and finally discovered by accident under 40 feet of earth. For instance, the Chichapilin globe (October 11, 1916) is documenting editorially made the recent discoveries made at Nepat by Dr. Retserer of Harvard, says. "To his amusement he found even greater treasures of the Ethiopian past. Pragment after fragment was unearthed, until at last he had reconstructed edifices of no less than 11 monarchs of the forgotten Negro empire." Since then the tombs of 14 other kings and 37 queens have been unearthed by the Retserer expedition. Among them is that of King Tirukwana continued in the book of

Then there have been such purely Negro civilizations as that of Uganda and Singhay, which were of high rank. Boas says in his 'Mind of Primitive Man' book, Dilron took out his notebook: "A survey of African tribes exhibits to our view cultural achievements of no mean order. All the different kinds of activities that we consider desirable in the citizens of our country may be found in aboriginal Africa."
The passenger did not reply. He had narrowed his eyes, which, like two slits, were peering at Dixon fleecely. The latter, after a brief pause, returning his gaze, continued undauntedly. "Spiller also says: The status of a race at any particular moment of time offers no index to its inherent capacities. How true has this been of Britons. Plets and Scots and Huns. Nineteen hundred and seventyone years ago England was the trained themselves with wood, offered human sacrifices, and even practiced cannibalism. Nor is culture a guarantee against decay, or Greece would not have decayed. You may be sure the Roman had the same contempt for the savages of the North who finally conquered him and almost obliterated his civilization, as have the self-styled superior peoples of today for the less developed ones. But these undeveloped peoples should not be deplied. Nature, it most certainly appears, does not intend to have the whole world civilized at the same time. Even as a thrifty housewife retains a balance in the bank to meet emergencies, so Nature retains these undeveloped varieties as a reserve fund to pay for the costs of ways exacts. First say that many biologists regard the Caucasian has having arrived at the limit of his evolution, and that he can go no higher without danger to his overdeveloped brain. Undeveloped peoples, like undeveloped resources, sir, are simply Nature's bank account."
The Senator readjusted his slippers and went over to the water cooler for a drink. He did not like to argue in this vein. Dixon's quiet assurance and well-bred air, too, surprised
Ass'n Will Discuss Recreation Problems
Abraham Lincoln's "home town." Springfield, Illinois, has been chosen for the Tenth Annual Recreation Congress to be held October 8-12, announces the Playground and Recreation Association of America under whose auspices the Congress will meet. From 800 to 900 delegates including leading figures in education and community recreation are expected to attend.
"Since the purpose of the Congress is to discuss practical and tried methods of promoting community recreation, it is appropriate" says Joseph Lee of Boston, president of the Congress, "that the home of Lincoln, America's most community minded citizen, should be selected for the Congress. We expect that many persons will want to see Lincoln's house, the office where he practiced law, and the chair where he sat as a member of the Legislature."
Among the topics to be discussed are the national physical fitness campaign, athletics for girls and women, adult recreation, the church and recreation, home play, small town and open country recreation, recreation for colored people and summer camps.

him, and made him unconsciously admit to himself that here was a Negro different from his concept of that race, and not much different from himself after all. Yet his racial pride would not permit him to be outwitted by any he regarded in inferior in spite of that "inferior" apparent intelligence. He would try the tactics best known to him—the same that he had more than that once used successfully with Negroes. He would outface his opponent, awe him, as it were, by his racial prestige. With this determination he returned to his seat and calmly coated himself.
After a few leisurely puffs of a freshly-lighted cigarette he turned to Dixon, who had not moved, and in pretty much the same tone that a bullying lawyer would use to a timid witness, shaking an extended forefinger and glaring from under knitted eyebrows, he demanded:
"Do you mean to tell me that you really believe the Negro is the equal of the white man? That you think you are as good as a white man? Come on now, none of your theories." (To be Continued Next Week.)
Pickens Writes on "Jim Crow in Texas'
William Pickens, field secretary of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, writing in The Nation, gives his personal experience with Jim Crow in Texas.
The Jim Crow car is not an institution merely to separate the races, assorts Mr. Pickens; "it is a contrivance to humiliate and harass the colored people and to torture them with a finesse unequalled by the cruelest genius of the heathen world.
Fourteen States have Jim Crow laws. Not one of them maintains equal accommodations' for colored people, although the law rarely calls for accommodations 'equal in all points of service and convenience' as so to guard with the Fifteenth Amendment.
Mr. Pickens then recites individual cases:
"A colored woman traveling three nights from El Paso, Tex., to Charleston, S. C., with a baby and small children, is compelled to carry cold food and to sit up on straight-backed seats for the whole trip. A colored woman of Portland, Ore., editor of a paper there, bright, intelligent and attractive, respected by the best-known white and colored people of the State, was visiting her parents in Texas, carrying her infant and a small child of three years. On their third night's ride, in Texas, she was compelled to get up, dress herself and babies, and vacate her berth because some short distance white passengers objected to her presence in the car. She hurried from Florida undergo an operation by an expert in Chicago, had to risk death by a 24-hour ride in Jim Crow day coach. Slick colored people sometimes have to be carried on stretchers in the baggage car."

An illustrated article on "Hamptonians in Extension Service" includes description of the work of a field agent of the Division of Extension of Agriculture. S. Department of Agriculture agent under the Co-operative Extension Work of Virginia; of a county agent; and of a home-demonstration agent. In editorials Dr. James H. Dillard, director of the Jeanes Teachers School, field agent of the General Education Board, write respectively of the work of the Jeanes teachers and of the country training schools. In line with these worth-white phases of service rendered in the Hampton Institute Conference "On the Hampton Minister Conference" and on "Group Effort in Rural Districts," telling in the recent Farmers' Conference held at Hampton institute.

Interesting comparisons between the Negroes in Haiti and in the United States are given in an editorial, "Haitians and American Negroes," by Mr. W. T. B. Williams, who spent several months in Haiti studying conditions in that country before taking office in Indianapolis. "The Red Man in the United States," and "Sonora Indian Myths," are reviewed in this issue.
Keeping Fit-:- BY E. ELLIOTT RAWLINS, M.D.
FIBROID TUMOR is a frequent condition with which women suffer. Women of the Negro race are more prone to this tumor than white women. A fibroid tumor is made up of fibroid tissue, blood vessels, lymphatics and also nerves. It also contains muscle tissue because it is a tumor of muscle organ.
The majority of fibroid tumors develop between the ages of twenties-five and forty; after that they are apt to degenerate or become smaller because the blood supply, which is its nourishment, is less at this period of a woman's life. As to the cause of fibroid tumor, medical science has propounded many theories; one thing is certain that the sexual and reproductive period of woman is a determining factor in its causation, because after forty-five a fibroid tumor never develops.
A fibroid tumor as a rule grows slowly, from three to thirteen years before it assumes a large size. The danger of this form of tumor is hemorrhage; degeneration into cancer or sarcoma; pressure symptoms upon the pelvic organs, such as the bladder and rectum; impoverished condition of the blood known as anaemia, and many nervous disorders.
When a diagnosis of fibroid tumor is made, the woman should make up her mind for an operation. X-ray and Radium treatment have not yet been perfected to be absolutely sure of a cure. Without operation many complications may occur. The anaemia as a result of fibroid tumor is so persistent and resistant to
The symptoms of fibroid tumor are variable. Many give no symptoms and are found out by accident in the course of an examination by a physician. The chief symptoms are hemorrhage, painful menstrual epochs, pressure pains in the nerves of the thighs, and in some cases an enlargement of the abdomen with a hard nodular mass.

CONTRARY to what is, perhaps, the general impression, there is, in the absence of a special agreement, based upon a valid consideration, no obligation upon a landlord to make repairs in leased premises. The law imposes upon the tenant the duty to keep these premises in repair. Where the leased premises are parts of a building, and in apartments, the landlord is bound to keep in repairs those parts of the structure which remain under his control—the hallways, roof and other parts of the building for the general use of all tenants and which are subject to the landlord's control.
What has perhaps caused confusion upon this subject in the public mind are certain provisions of the Tenement House Law and the Sanitary Code of New York City, which state that every tenement house and all parts thereof shall be kept in good repair and in a cleanly condition at all times.
It has been quite conclusively established, however, that the effect of these provisions is merely to make the owner of the property responsible to the tenant, a authorities for its reasonably proper and sanitary condition; that that between the owner and the tenant, these statutes do not undertake to lustry upon the former, except for the proper maintenance of such buildings as the halls, stairways and other parts under the landlord's control and intended for the tenant's common use. Thus, it is held that the falling of a ceiling in an apartment, if not directed upon by the landlord's negligent maintenance of the roof, pipes or other parts of the building that he controls, does not make him liable to the tenant for damages sustained by the latter by reason thereof, it not being the landlord's duty to keep the ceiling in repair.
The interpretation given to sections of the Tenement House Laws is that the Tenement House Department shall compel the owner, see that the unsanitary conditions, if there be any therein existing, to occupy the tenant occupying the specific apartment in which the conditions should be presumed to be the creator of the unsanitary conditions responsible for the same, and should be compelled to remove them.
The Tenement House Department, however, under the law, can hold out the landlord responsible, and therefore the section is further courted to mean that the landlord must see to it that the tenant remove the condition; in other words, compel the tenant to do so.
The practice of landlords, formerly quite general, periodically to redecorate their tenants' apartments, has also contributed to the impression prevalent in the public mind that it is incumbent upon them to do so. But there never was any law on the statute books compelling a landlord to decorate his tenant's apartment. Before the housing shortage—during the period when the housing supply exceeded the demand, it was invariably the custom of landlords to do so, but it was done voluntarily, under the stress of competition, and not by any compelling law. All this, of course, does not mean that the lease may not specifically, and validly provide that repairs of any specified sort shall be made by one party or the other—by landlord or tenant. Such a provision in a lease is quite usual, and is enforceable, just as any other contract.

When a diagnosis of fibroid tumor is made, the woman should make up her mind for an operation. X-ray and Radium treatment have not yet been perfected to be absolutely sure of a cure. Without operation many complications may occur. The anemia as a result of fibroid tumor is so persistent and resistant to treatment that it often kills. Degenerative changes in the fibroid, such as cancer, frequently occur; the operation for fibroid tumor is a perfected one; and absolute cure is the result. Fibroid tumor cannot be successfully treated by internal medicines, or massage, or chiropractic adjustments. The knife is the only means; and the operation is comparatively safe.
