IN GREATER NEW YORK ELSEWHERE 5c EXTRA OSCAR GANT DIES BY GAS The dead body of Oscar Gant, age 40, was found yesterday morning in the bathroom of his mother's home, Mrs. Julia Gant, who lives at 132 West 139th street. He had evidently committed suicide, as a gas tube had been attached to the jet and the gas was on. The odor of the escaping gas was detected by his mother. Gant was a Red Cap, employed by the New York Central R. R., and a member of the Manhattan Lodge of Elks, No. 45. His wife, Alice, is living. Amsterdam News-Red Caps' Excursion Run Without Mishap That nearly 1,000 colored people may go for a day's outing and deport themselves as respectable men and women should was demonstrated Sunday when The Amsterdam News and Pennsylvania Red Caps ran an excursion to Atlantic City, carrying that number. There were many children on the train. Twelve hours were spent at the famous seashore, five hours more than the regular Pennsylvania excursions allow. The crowd was a record-breaking one also from the point of behavior. The only two incidents marring the orderliness that prevailed was the loss of a pocketbook in Atlantic City by a woman, and one excursionist who tried to beat a taxi fare. The latter was left in Atlantic City in care of the Police Department. A large number of the excursionists went bathing, visiting the various amusement places and walking along the boardwalk in the beautiful moonlight. On the return trip, which began at midnight, most of the excursionists settled down in their seats for a little rest. SECRETARY OF INTERIOR WORK TO ASK FOR $500,000 FOR HOWARD VOL. XVII.

Miss Violette Ramey, 28, late of 100 Edgecombe avenue, who had been hailed into the Heights Court charged with paying too violent attentions to Superintendent Alexander King, of the College Post Office Station, has not only promised to not vamp the handsome widower any more, but has left the city in search of forgetfulness. Miss Ramey, who is 38, was arraigned before Magistrate Barrett two weeks ago, on complaint of Superintendent King, who produced a large sheaf of letters, which Miss Ramey had written him, some of which were alleged to be of a threatening nature. He denied SECRETARY OF IN TO ASK FOR $500 Amount Needed to Enlarge Facilities of the Medical and Dental Schools; Students Rejected Last Year. WASHINGTON, D. C., Aug. 27.—An appropriation of $500,000 to construct and equip an addition to the medical and dental school at Howard University, the only college in the country, with one exception, where colored physicians and dentists are graduated, will be requested of Congress at its coming having given her the slightest encouragement for her persistent love attacks. Miss Ramey, on the first arraignment before Magistrate Barrett, confessed the love for the complainant and said that ever since she had accidentally seen him one day last February on a street car he had impressed her so much that she had not been able to forget him, even though she had "prayed to God" for help to do so. On her second arraignment she promised not to annoy the superintendent any more and added that she was through with the whole tribe of men for keeps—that they weren't worth it. She was then discharged. It is reported that she has gone to her parents in Connecticut. CALLS ON PRESIDENT. WASHINGTON, Aug. 28—W. H. Lewis, of Boston, Assistant Attorney-General under President Taft, called upon President Coolidge last week. Mr. Lewis was the first colored man named to the position of Assistant Attorney-General. He was a delegate to the Republican National Convention in 1920, and attended Amherst College with Mr. Coolidge. INTERIOR WORK 2,000 FOR HOWARD session by Secretary of the Interior Work. This sum has already been included in the estimates of the appropriations for the Department of the Interior for the coming fiscal year of 1925, it was stated by Secretary Work today, and is due to the insufficient facilities for the education of members of the colored race in the medical and dental professions existing throughout the United States. Recent investigations show that the colored population of the Nation has increased to nearly 12,000,000 and that there is only one colored physician to 3,194 persons, while the white race has a phryi- Amsterdam News PRESIDENT TO BACK BILL AGAINST LYNCHING Apartments to Let, 4 rooms, bath, steam and electricity, all conveniences, property being thoroughly overhauled, electric lights for halls and apartments, in 141st St., near Edgecomb Ave. Apply JOHN M. ROYALL, 21 W. 134th St., K. Y. O. Vigilant District of Columbia Weekly Makes Public Confidential Letter of Tuskegee Head's Secretary. (FROM THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE.) As was to be expected, Robert R. Moton now denies the sending of the telegram to C. W. Hare of the K. K. K. Tuskegee Citizens' Committee. In a telegram sent to the Afro-American, published last week, he says: "The Tribune telegram declaring that I invited the white Tuskegee Committee to Washington for a conference with Director Hines is false." Notwithstanding Moton's flat denial in the above telegram the Tribune is in possession of a letter written by Moton's secretary, Albion Holsey, in which the sending of the telegram is admitted and attempted to be explained. The letter in part follows: Tuskegee Institute, Ala. August 10, 1923. Dear Mr. LuValle: I wrote you a letter yesterday and since then I have been thinking of the telegram which came into your hands, and which the Tribune released to the colored paper. I am not willing to believe that you would maliciously publish this telegram in the way you did when your own knowledge of the situation, based upon facts which I gave you, would have explained the full purport of Dr. Moton's strategy in sending that message. That same confidence which I have in you leads me to write you this letter with the expressed wish that it shall not be published or shown to any one except Mr. Walker. Secretary to the Principal. In addition to the above written admission that the telegram referred to was sent, we learn that Mr. Moton's secretary when asked concerning it admitted to Mr. Jas. A. Cobb of this city that the telegram was sent and attempted to explain that it was sent to "trick the Klu Klus crowd" in Tuskegee. The above letter, which was marked "confidential," would not have been published but for the denial which Moton is broadcasting through the press. To withhold this specific and definite proof of the sending of the telegram in the light of Moton's denial would place this paper in a false light. We therefore are forced for our own protection to give the public the facts, notwithstanding the request for secrecy. GIVEN FIFTEEN DAYS. Ben Williams, 37, 506 Longway avenue, was sentenced to 18 days in jail for speeding by Magistrate House in Trade Court, Monday. NEW YORK, N. Y., WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 29, 1923 Executive Secretary States That Coolidge Will Ask Laws to Break Up Hooded Mobs WASHINGTON, August 28.—President Coolidge will recommend a strong and potent anti-lyning measure to the next Congress and promises to get behind it with all of the influence and power of the White House, is the announcement given out by C. Bascom Slemp, new Executive Secretary. It is understood that the President will not only ask for the enactment of all of the clauses of the Dyer bill, but will urge that penalties and jurisdiction be incorporated for the punishment by the Federal authorities of masked and hooded organizations engaged in outrages upon American citizens. It's a Long, Long Story About $20 Recent depredations reported from Georgia and other points in the South, in which man and woman have been hung by masked bands of marauders, are so deeply deplored by the President that he desires the anti-lyning measure to include penalties drastic enough Driver of News Delivery Truck Says Woman Took $20 From Him Dismissed. Chivalry for beauty in distress has set Charles Gersch, white, of 30 Willard Avenue, back just $20, according to a story Gersch told Magistrate Earl Smith in the Washington Heights Court Monday morning. Gersch said that, at 5:30 on Sunday morning, he was on his way to Harlem with a truck load of Hearst's papers, when Beatrice Joynes, colored, of 61 West 133d Street, begged him for a ride, saying that she was broke. He gave her a ride, he said, and she got off at 156th Street and Lenox Avenue. A few minutes later the chauffeur, Charles Goldburg, called to him, he said, saying "You'd better look in your pocket." On looking he said that two $10 bills were missing. Some minutes later he said that he saw her again at 118th Street and Lenox Avenue, and that when he came toward her she tried to escape in a taxi. He said that he could not account for the manner in which the alleged robbery had occurred, as at no time did the defendant approach him in an affective manner, or he her. Detective Butler said that, on arresting the defendant, he took her to the 37th Precinct station, where she was searched. Here the matron found $17.60 on her. In the sum was a ten-dollar bill. The defendant declared that she had never been on the truck and said that she was returning from a party when Gersch and Goldburg made improper advances to her to which she had turned a deaf ear. She said that she had been out of work for three weeks and lived with her mother and sister. Declaring that the complainant had not proved his case, Magistrate Smith dismissed the charge. DOROTHY LEVY. 14. REPORTED MISSING Dorothy Levy, age 14, is reported missing. She left her home, 2006 H. 96th street, on August 21, wearing an orange colored dress, trimmed in black ribbon; a dark hat, black Oxford shoes and stockings. She carried a new suitcase. She loops about 18 years. Height five feet nine inches; weight, 134 pounds. Her dark blue suit was trimmed in blue ribbon —(Advt.) Recent depredations reported from Georgia and other points in the South, in which men and women have been bugged by masked bands of marauders, are so deeply deplored by the President that he desires the anti-lynching measure to include penalties drastic enough to bring them to an end. It is expected here that the bill will meet with the same opposition from the Democratic members of Congress, particularly from the South, that appeared against the Dyer Bill. It will be remembered that Senator Underwood, leader of the minority and candidate for the Democratic nomination for President, obstructed a vote on that measure and threatened to stop the functions of the Government, with an infamous filibuster, rather than see it become a law. Those close to the President say that he believes the present emergency conditions will insure a favorable consideration of a new bill. At least the supposition obtains that with the long session of Congress, which comes in December, there will be offered sufficient time to fight the defenders of lynching to a finish. CHAIR PUSHERS STAGE DUEL QN BOARDWALK ATLANTIC CITY, N. J., Aug. 27. —Thousands of visitors recently saw two chair pushers engage in a duel with knives after a quarrel over a fare. The trouble began in the rush hour when the boardwalk was crowded with the afternoon holiday throngs. Police fought their way through the crowd and arrested the duellists who gave their names at the city jail as Charles Dunn, colored, and Herman Graves, an East Indians. Both were employed by one company, but argued as to who was "next" on the list to go out. Notice to Subscribers Correspondents and Agents THE AMSTERDAM NEWS will be published as usual on Wednesday, but to insure publication of news matter, advertisements, etc., all matter for publication in our issue of September 5 should reach us not later than Westchester County Park Commission Buys Resort to Keep Colored People Out—Pays Sum of $360,000 — Many Negroes Had Agreed to Buy Lots. The Westchester County Park Commission recently completed the purchase of 320 acres of land at Croton Point to be used as a county park, it was announced Monday night by W. Delavan Baldwin of Yonkers, chairman of the commission. The land was the property of three men, one of them, Inglis M. Uppercu of the Uppercu Cadillac Company of New York. The reported price was $360,000. The move of the commission in making the purchase, it was said, was to prevent the land being taken over by Harlem Negroes, headed by Robert W. Justice, of 447 Lenox avenue, Manhattan. Justice had worked out a plan to develop on the land an enormous summer resort for Negroes. He planned to build a pier on the Hudson at Croton Point where steamboats could discharge passengers, schoolhouses, dancing pavilions, bathhouses and other structures to attract Negroes from all over the United States at vacation time. "It will create an awful sensation in Harlem. Many people have subscribed to lots at Croton Point to the value of half a million dollars. We were to be given an agreement and had an option on the land until September 12. "The arrangement for the option was merely verbal between two gentlemen, Mr. Hindley, Uppercu's attorney, and myself." Justice had envisioned a model of Atlantic City for his race at Croton Point. The land is one mile from Harmon, near Osceola and Peekskill, and it was believed that residents of those towns were behind the Westchester County Park Commission's move in purchasing the land. "I consider the sale a breach of an oral agreement," Justice said, "but I want to add that both Mr. Uppercorn and Mr. Mingle are such fine people that I will not say anything against them. I know they will do the right thing, and I think they wouldn't have sold the property if heavy pressure from Westchester had not been brought against them." ATLANTA, Ga., Aug. 27.—Representative Bennett of Dodge County, who introduced a bill in the Georgia Legislature providing for the re-establishment of whipping in the State penitentiaries, appeared before the Committee in behalf of the measure. The treatment of Negro convicts in the prisons and convict camps had become go notorious that former Governor Hardwick ordered whipping discontinued. Representative Bennett is anxious to have whipping made lawful. "The convicts," urged the Representative, "are becomingullen, stubbber and uncontrollable since whipping was outlawed in this State. All Negroes must be kept in constant fear of the lash, and those who are confined as criminals especially." YOU CAN BUY AND SELL MOST ANYTHING IN THE AMSTERDAM NEWS SOUTH BEING AROUSED AGAINST ILL-TREATMENT OF THE NEGRO Hartman bootleggers continue to ply their murderous trade with impunity. In the days before prohibition there was a check on the saloon-keepers, regular liquor was sold, and a license, costing thousands had to be procured. Now the sky is the limit, and all who wish may enter the trade. Rat-gut whiskey and death-dealing gin are being freely sold over the counters bringing in a fortune to these slow murderers of their fellow men. With the large number of visitors in the city, last week proved a banner week for the bootleggers. They took in tens of thousands of dollars extra. In several places investigators from the Amsterdam News saw liquor being sold freely over the counter to all comers. After and during the Pythian parade men could be seen staggering from these places on Lenox and Seventh avenues. Many of these bootch partiers are as obvious as the former licensed liquor saloon, and no one can help but see them. There is usually a display of some soft drinks in front with a partition behind which the liquor, or what passes forth, is sold. In addition, these places there are others not so easily seen as drag stores, furniture stores, ladies' dress stores and fruit stores. On Lenox average is a furniture store notorious for the vile hootch it sells. In a block nearby is a ladies' dress shop where customers ask for red stockings or white stockings and get a bottle of red hootch or white one as the case may be. In addition to the 14 joints mentioned last week as existing between 135th and 145th streets on Lenox avenue, there are seven others. Even those who run may read what these places are. HARVARD PROFESSOR IS FOR SEGREGATION WILLIAMSTOWN, Mass., Aug. 27.-Prof. W. M. McDougal, in a discussion of race as a factor in politics, at the institute, said: "I cannot help thinking that the only solution of the Negro problem here in America is the segregation of Negroes in some portions of the country where they will live their lives without endangering either their own culture or the culture of the United States." The professor pointed out the danger of seriousness to the future supremacy of the so-called white race if continued residence in this country side by side of the races. He seemed to think that there is a possibility of an unwelcomed assimilation of the present races and the production of an entirely different racial type brought about by miscognition. Among those who should be isolated are: Greeks, Turks, Balkans, Japanese, Chinese and Negroes. WRITES MAYOR NYLAM. Louis A.

William Bentley, who shot and killed Robert Shields Dec. 24, 1922, in the apartment of his wife, Mrs. Edna Bentley, 47 West 139th street, has brought suit in the Supreme Court for a divorce. Mrs. Bentley presented counter claims for a separation. Her motion for alimony was denied, although Justice Lydon granted her a $50 counsel fee. In his alimony, Bentley admits he shot and killed Shields, who died 20 minutes after the shooting. He says he went to the apartment on the morning of the fatal shooting to bid his wife a "Merry Christmas," and that, Shields learned of him when he walked into the bedroom, brandishing a large "hookbill" knife. "I shot him in self-defense," declares Bentley. Mr. Bentley, in her affidavit, takes strong exception to her husband's claim of self-defense, and further declares that she can prove by several witnesses that Shields was fully clothed when he was shot. Bentley alleges his wife admitted, after the shooting, to Policeman Emanuel Cline, of the 38th precinct, that she was "living a meretricious life" with Shields. Bentley assured Justice Lyndon in his affidavit that he will be able to produce witnesses at the trial of the divorce action to prove his contention that Shields end his wife were occupants of the same apartment for several weeks between August 1 and the day of the shooting, and their relations were not innocent. Considerable discrepancy appears in the affidavits as to Bentley's financial condition. His wife says he had a former saloon at 163 West 1324 street, that he has an interest in a cigar store at 650 Lenox avenue, and has an income from the latter of $60 to $70 a week. Bentley declares that he is "down and out," had to pawn his jewelry, and that his presence at 650 Lenox avenue is explained by the fact that he is secretary of a social club with rooms in the building. He said he is undergoing medical treatment for high blood pressure. WARNINGTON. Apr. 27.—Secretary Melton today sent specialists to see Richard Green, 69, his messenger, when he learned he was critically ill. Green, who got his first job with the Government from President Grant, has been at the door of the Treasury Secretary's office for decades. Six feet, three inches tall, he is known for his courtesy and dignified bearing. OUSED AGAINST NT OF THE NEGRO here, which will be read of the opening mass meeting Wednesday night. In his message, Mr. Sterey said the interim committee throughout the South showed that the consciences of white people were being roped against the ill-treatment of Negroes. The defeat of the New Anti-Lynching Bill in the last Congress by the filibuster of Southern Senators was an admission, said Mr. Sterey, that the crime of lynching was a Southern one. Mr. Sterey's message in full is as follows: "I am sorry that I cannot meet you face to face and in person after you my congratulations on the successful year that has passed since our last meeting, and the prospects of assured and complete success that awaits us.

MACON, Ga., Aug. 27.—The first gang of alleged kidnappers and floggers which have been terrorizing Macon for six months was captured tonight by Sheriff's officers. Three white cowards, brothers, S.

That amateur basketball has left the field with a long, sad, dying gasp was evident last season when the final smash-up came, and now the only reminder of the good old days is for one to focus attention on what the professionals are doing. Unlike the amateurs, who waited until the last moment to get into action, the McMahon boys are right now preparing to put their team again in the field this year, with the avowed intention of defeating the Original Celtics when the time arrives.

Unlike the amateurs, wh to get into action, the McMah ing to put their team again i avowed intention of defeating time arrives. It is also said on good authority that the promoters behind the Commonwealth basketball team are planning an early invasion of New Jersey long before the snow starts to fly and from present indications they are primed for a big killing in the land of the mosquito as they have nothing in the way of a colored team worth while to offer in those places where Jimmie Fults was a Czar for so many years. Word also came to us last week that "Strangler" Forbes and Hilton (Kid) Slocum plan to sever their connection with the Commonwealth and become members of a new outfit to start here this Fall. Sesquim, the former pilot man of the Leeds team of Pittsburgh, is slated to take the place of Slocum at center and it is even rumored that Walter Cooper, the old master, is planning to come out and try for the place. All those desirous of trying out with the Commonwealth will be welcome as the McMahons believe in giving all hands a chance and picking the best for the big team. So far no word has come from the famous "Kangaroo" Pappy Ricks, who is still sojourning in New Jersey, from which place it is hard to move him.

J "BATTLING" SIKI, The Senegalese Fighter Said to be on His Way Here From the French Capital. Sild Is Coming; Will McTigue Take a Boat? Not Much Being Said of the Planned Invasion of the Senegalese in Fistic Circles Here Mike McTigue has been basking in the glory of a questionable victory over Battling Skii for the past few months, and while the French-Boston Federation has decreed that Skii did not lose his title in that innery, little affair in Ireland, the white papers on this side of the rater have been aiding and abetting McTigue in his pose as king of the division. At that, McTigue hasn't created my sensation here, and now that he Senegalese is called to be headed to those shores, we fear that McTigue will return to the land of the Macs and refugia to show us far P. In Behalf of Whom Paddy Mullina Now Ascends the Rostrum to Teil Why Dempsey Ducks. Mr. Romeo L. Dougherty, Sports Editor, Amsterdam News, New York City. Dear Sir: Once more I find my self called upon to contradict a story. which appeared in the daily prints anent my heavyweight star, Harry Wills, which was canonized. Gene Sememt, which was Jack Johnson. He said that Johnson and Wills are to battle in the near future. There is nothing to the yarn whatsoever, for I must repeat again that under no conditions will I allow the logical contender for Jack Dempsey's world's title to mix with Jack Johnson in the ring. I am tired of seeing my great champion used for the purpose of making money for battlers, who know they can get some real hit by facing Jack Johnson has been out the ring for years and if he runs to fight; let him tackle some of the other warriors. As for Wills, Jack may as well let him out of the picture for such a match is not even thought of by us. I have several bigger events in view for Wills than stacking him against the former champion. For some time this one and that one has attempted to ridicule Wills and his fighting prowess. One by one these alleged fighters have been accommodated and disposed of. They had Bill Tate, then Kid Norfolk and afterwards Tut Jackson to meet Wills. What happened to them is already ring history. One by one they were left by the pugilistic wayside. With the road cleared for a match with Dempsey, everyone admitting Wills to the lightful contender for the heavyweight championship, Jack Johnson has been trying to foist himself into the picture by repeated challenging of Wills and statements that they would be matched. I have had occasion to deny these assertion before and once more wish to say that under no conditions will Wills box Johnson. I shall esteem it as a great favor and so will Wills if you will place these facts before your readers. Sincerely yours. PADDY MULLINS, Managet Harry Wills. how he managed to get a decision over the colored French fighter. Tex Rickard, who has been trying to get away from colored people ever since he made a pile of dough to start him in the game through Joe Gans and Jack Johnson, hasn't as yet shown any enthusiasm about the coming of Siki, although he was the first to animate the wild card against the latter after Siki had knocked out Germaine Gorman Gormanston. NEW YORK AMSTERDAM NEWS. WEDNESDAY. AUGUST 29, 1923 THE WORLD OF SPORT Personal But Not Private August 22, 1923. Mr. Romeo L. Dougherty, Sporting Editor, Amsterdam News, 2233 Seventh Ave., New York, N. Y. Dear Friend Dougherty: I don't suppose that this letter will ever see the light in the column of your paper, being the product of a Democrat, but it will at least afford you several minutes of amusement as well as enlightenment. In the current issue of your paper appears an article under your name, attributing to Al Smith the failure of Dempsey to meet Willis in New York State. Without debating the truth or falsity of this, let us for a period take up fundamentals. Romeo, you are a sport writer, an exceptionally good one, and while your English is not always of the best, you are always familiar with your subject in sports. In this instance, however, you have permitted yourself to be misled by the opinion of Mr. Underwood, a sport writer himself, but who essays the critical task of political philosopher. This is fortunate. To me, in sports your word is as sound as his. In politics his is as unreasoning to me as yours. By following him, therefore, you have opened yourself to criticism. First, let us assume that Al Smith stands between Dempsey and Willis in this state, whether he actually does so or not. We take this stand so that you will benefit by any doubt or weaknesses in my arguments. What offense does the Negro race suffer thereby? You have a library as large, if not a great deal larger, than mhme. Delve for your own satisfaction and see if any lasting benefit has ever accrued to any group merely because of the athletic prowess of an individual belonging to it. Romeo and Greece, in their day, humbled the world in sports. Their pristine, though, was created by their progress in intellectual matters. Plato has more followers today than the great runner who took home the news from Marathon. Batauus, in France, and over the world, will be read long after Georges Carpenter is dead. A victory of Willis over Dempsey will not stop a single lynching in the South, nor abolish one Jim Crow car. Race prejudice still lives and stalks upon the highways of America. When Johnson whipped James Jeffries there was suffering among Negroes in the South. There were many serious disturbances among the races above the Mason-Dixon Line. Do not misunderstand me, friend. I am as much in favor of the equality of sports as I am in favor of the equality of intellect, but I believe that the Negro's position socially, politically and industrially is of so serious a nature that for us to consume our energies in proposing the idea of a Dempsey-Willis pugilistic encounter in a reflection on our intelligence. Did you ever stop to think that if as much printer's ink had been spilled in support of the Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill as has been spilt in behalf of such a fight, lynching would by now be gasping its last? No race has been built by prize fights, nor ever will be. Quiet thought always will be master over brute strength, and one philosopher is worth as much as every prize fighter that ever lived from the days of David and Goliath. One word in defense of Al Smith. If you are fair you will admit with the rest of us that he is the very best Governor that ever went to Albany. You know about the rent laws, his laws, that were and are of greater benefit to us than to any other group since we receive less in return for our labor. You remember Hattie Dixon and her son Theodore. Smith took both of them out of the death house after the Court of Appeal had affirmed their conviction. There is not a case similar to this in all the legal records of New York. I want to go further. You state that Mr. Smith is making a bid for the Southern vote. What if he is, and what if his means of doing this is the blocking of Dempsey and Willis? Can you name me one politician from the East who, with presidential ambition, did not also make bids for that vote? Let me name you those who did: Abraham Lincoln, Benjamin Harrison, Grover Cleveland, Wm. McKinley, Teddy Roosevelt, Wm. Howard Taft, Warren G. Harding, and today, Calvin C. Coolidge. Perhaps they all used different methods, but in each instance the Negro was the club. Your mistake, however, is in believing that Mr. Smith blinds for the Southern vote. He doesn't have to do this. He is a Democrat, and in the South such a thing as the Republican Party is simply a name, an organization without voters. Mr. Smith can even referee the Dempsey-Willa fight and get more votes for president from the South than any Republican you know. This in itself ought to convince you that your article is all wrong. The only real bidding that is being made by any prospective candidates at present is that of Mr. Coolidge, who deliberately selects from the State of Virginia, as his Secretary, Campbell Bascom Slemp, a curse to Negroes all over the world. Closing I want to call to your attention another mistake, which is in believing that Mr. Smith, by his alleged attitude towards the big fight, has thrown away three Assembly Districts. Where are they? Only two, the Twenty-first and Nineteenth, are largely inhabited by colored people, and those, as your registration of 1822 will show, are solidly Republican. The Thirteenth is a white district. But what is Mr. Smith's attitude towards the fight? I suppose it is about the same as that 999 out of every 1,000 white man. He no more wants to see one of his race beaten by a fighter from ours than we want to see one of our race beaten by a fighter from his. Blood, Rames, politics and everything else cast in the rubbish will fall, and blood is a great deal thicker than water. Thanks for your patience. Somehow or other we are, insisted to doubt, the least bit that Brother Bridges felt his letter would not be reproduced in these columns, for, even though we say it ourselves, Brother Bridges is fully aware of the fact that we have always tried to be fair. We welcome at this time the brilliant affection from the pen of our young and estequent crater whose voice, whether lifted in behalf of the Societist or Democratic Party, hold upbound those among us with a serious thought to the future progress of this downtrodden race to which we belong. It was Arthur. Brisbane who a few weeks ago told the million readers of Hearst's American and Journal that the success of Benny Leonard in the roped arena did much to raise the Jew in the estimation of thousands of people outside of his race. We respect the opinion of George Underwood of the New York Evening Telegram because we have found him at all times trying to be fair to our people in sport, and this long before the hue and cry of a symposium-Willie Right. It is said that the previous Governor of New York sent word to this city advising that Manager Buckley, of the Pioneer A. C., should stage a city skivelling that Manager Buckley, while there existed in the game and immediately Buckley had Democrat Edwin Curtin. We are not asking the present Governor of the State of New York to in the matter or do anything that would endanger his aspirations for the presidency. We are simply asking that as the Chief Executive of the State he insult upon his State Athletic Commission administering their own rules in an imperial manner. We are fully aware that a Wille, victory will not stop a single lynching in the South, but are we not also fully aware that all the work of our intellectuals has also failed to stop a single lynching in that heightened section of the country? We seek no lasting benefit to accuse our race from the prime prize, but do it not meet that we deplore a condition which finds us fit to defend the flag of the United States in the mud and mire of France, passing through a living hell in defense of a country which, when the lull of battle comes refuses simple justice to one of our own who seeks to earn his livelihood in a calling which wins the plaudits of the world when one reaches the top? Are we to blame simply because ignorance ran riot throughout the country when Johnson whipped Jeffries? Is it not a fact that officers of the law if acting true to their duty could have prevented the unfortunate occurrences? Was the victory of Johnson over Jeffries responsible for the Chicago riots? Was the victory of this same Johnson responsible for the Washington riot when Woodrow Wilson, running, true to form of the Southern Bourbon and cracker, did not avail. Have the decency to raise his voice deploring the outraging law and order at the Nation's Capital and in the very shadow of the White House? So, my dear Brother Bridges, quiet thought will always be master over brutal strength, oh? As I see it the devastating war from which humanity is still suffering was the failure of diplomacy, which, I take it, represents quiet thought, calm judgment and serious consideration, especially if the consideration surrounds some weak power with furtile lands. Like you, my dear William, we are fully aware that the salvation of a race will never come through price fighting, but that is no reason why we should not raise our carolls in ancient when a car Miss Isadora Channels of Chicago Also to the Fore in Chicago Tournament CHICAGO, Aug. 27.

Buller Fights a Draw With Terry Martin Injustice is being perpetrated upon a member of our race simply because he is a colored man. You follows who are strong in the council of the Democratic Party so impressed us with your talk of the true sportmanship of "AI" we were rather shocked at his silence in this matter after representations had been made that the State Athletic Commission had brought with them to New York that idea of "one law for the black man and another for the white" after they had accepted Willa's forfeit for a fight with Dempsey and which they seek at this late date to return to Wille because Tax Rickard wills that the white bruiser be protected in his flight from the black man. George Moore was not the happiest looking individual at the Commonwealth Club last Saturday night, for which there were reasons, good and sufficient. In the first place, Moore felt that the night should have been an auspicious one for him because without any notice he sent his crack little fighter, Bohby Risen, against "Bull" Rafferty, the bout, on to take the place of a very unsatisfactory encounter whereby a match was the three or four socks to the wind of Young Jack Johnson and sent the latter down for keeps in the very first round. The Sportive Spotlight Nothing proves better the inconsistency of the white man than an article by Fred Keats in Saturday's Sun and Globe deploring the fact that today the race falls to boast a crop of boxers as good as those in the old days. It is all the colored fighter can do to get a chance to show in the colored clubs and if he happens to be a pretty fair fighter with a tendency to head for the championship, he has no chance at all. Riden, against Rafferty and under the guidance of Denver "Edd" Martin, again showed fight fans that he is really the ziz and will have to be reckoned with if given a chance at the white boys his weight. Rafferty did not at any time lose his pulse, but the showing of Riden was so perfect it did not take the judges long to decide that Riden was the winner. Bobby who by his smile and if there was any doubt he would be nursing the same disappointment of the majority of the colored fighters. Coupled with that is the act of a bunch of judges who seem to carry through the idea of "white supremacy" with a vengeance by handing gut burn decisions that sting up high heaven whanever one of our boys hands a lacing to the white mitt pusher. If a colored and white fighter and a bout and any doubt is in the minds of the people as to the winner, you can go down hook, line and sinker on the colored boy getting the worst of it. George Moore, who has been piloting Danny Edwards through the maze of the game in this city, has suffered untold agony from decisions handed out against Edwards and recently we found Moore rather warm under the collar when the subject was broached: "Not only," said George, "have I suffered from this angle of the game, but in trying to prove to the other fellow I was a good loser. I have been allowing opponents for my boys to get away with the forfeits calling for weight. But from now on it is a different story and these white boys had either make the weight or come prepared to lose their forfeit. After that Moore settled down to see just what Buller would do against Providence Terry Martin and Moore was satisfied up to the time the judges said that Martin won. It was then that any kind of egg would have been burnt to a frazzle had it come in contact with the top of Moore's cranium. And you couldn't blame the serial manager who during the afternoon had allowed Terry to keep the forfeit for weight which he failed to make. "They thought by my attitude that I am inclined to be an 'aest mark,' and they did not go to the trouble of getting down to weight, but I have a big surprise in store for the next one." Moore and his fighters have been smiling through some of the rarest decisions that the hamafat judges ever handed down, but a movement is on foot to remedy this part of the game and we hope it is on the level. Under the existing conditions in boxing we'll, never be able to produce the champions to take the places of the old timers and such as Fred Keats can do a world of good by devoting their time and space to demanding fair play and then we'll show them something. Martin, in his slam bang style, went after Buller from the first round, but Buller remained cool throughout and pasted Terry good and plenty, delivering the cleanest blows throughout the fight, in the first round administering a nasty out over one of Martin's eyes that bled profusely throughout the contest by reason of Buller starting it in the opening of every round. Moore started to feel dissatisfied second round, when he saw that Martin was filling all the rough stuff in the calendar, priginfhighter, but readily forget it when he noticed how Buller was weathering the storm and holding his own. How often do you hear of Panama Joe Gans, Kid Norfolk, and a number of other fighters of the colored race being given a chance at the big fight clubs? Even with white managers behind them they have got a hard road to travel and Mr. Keats might as well stop bemoaning things until such time as the colored boys are given a square deal in the game. prised individual in the world when the colored lad refused to be come flustered and met everything he had with smashing returns. At times perry had to break ground and other times he was found swinging like a gate, with Butler dancing along the ropes and giving him a chance to get set for a blow from healthy black fists. The announcement of Martin's victory did not seem to meet with favor at the hands of the big crowd, even though the white folks did not appear to be pleased at the constant bleeding of Terry at the hands of Buller. In justice to Buller the McMahon Brothers signed him up to meet Martin again on October 6 and wepline from this action that Jesse and "Ed" feels that the colored boy did not get a square deal. This will mean that a packed house will greet these fighters when they appear and Buller having first-hand information on the style of the great Providence Terry Martin, will be better prepared for adversary on the night of October 6. Who Was the Referee? Scores of fight fans leaving the Commonwealth Sporting Club law Saturday after voicing their disapproval of the referee for the night continued the panning of this gentleman on their way home. It was said by many that he "rode" Kid Buller unmercifully and his action had much to do in making the colored how appear to the judges to be losing. Buller has been "ridden" in the past at the same club and was forced to confine his blows "high up" for fear that a body blow would give his opponent a chance to claim a foul. There are a number of tricks to the game unknown to those not interested to the extent of keeping tables on the officials, but more and more the fans are becoming educated to the niceties of pugilism. AT PROTECTORY OVAL In the opening game on Sunday next at Protectory Oval, East Tremont avenue, near 180th street, the aggressive, hard hitting Wilmington. Dei. team will play the Lincoln Glants. Magnificent New Theatre for Harlem Planned Costly Structure Under Consideration by Moneyed Men of the Colored Race Rumor Says That John T. Gibson of Philadelphia Is Among Those Planning to Invade This Section With an Up-to-Date Show House. Rumor, which travels fast in the theatrical world, came to town this week to the effect that a number of well-known colored business men are seriously considering the building of a magnificent new theatre in this section of the city housing more than one hundred and fifty thousand race men and women. About a year ago this same rumor came through Harlem, but nothing came of it until recently, when the name of John T. Gibson, owner of the Standard Theatre at South and 12th streets and the Dunbar Theatre, on Broad street. Philadelphia, was prominently mentioned as one of the men connected with the project. Those said to be on the inside are of the opinion that the Cranall interests, operating many houses in Washington, D. C., and the same people who built the splendid Lincoln Theatre in that city for exclusive colored patronage, are behind the move to construct a new playhouse somewhere between 125th and 155th Streets on Seventh Avenue. John T. Gibson is looked upon as the most successful colored man in the game and the other day a newspaper story to the effect that Gibson is worth over a million dollars was sent out via one of the many colored press agencies. It is said that the policy of the new house if the plans go through will call for the showing of the best musical plays on Broadway before or after they go to the "Big Street." The best colored musical comedies will also be played in the new house although the management will not depend entirely upon the colored shows to support the theatre. It is pointed out that thousands of colored people travel to the white houses where the best shows are being presented and those behind the venture believe that the bringing of the big successful white companies will draw big houses among the colored people as they support the best along this form of entertainment whether it is offered by white or colored people. On the other hand it is rumored that an attempt will be made to bring the same high class vaudeville to colored Harlem as obtains at the Ahambra and other houses where colored people have never been welcome, but where they are merely tolerated to avoid the annoyance of constant suits for discrimination. It is also pointed out that during the run of "Shuffle Along," at Daly's Theatre, formerly the M Street Music Hall, hundreds of colored people made the trip each week to see the show and those said to be behind the new venture feel that if such a show played here it can at least run six weeks to successful business before or after the close of a Broadway engagement. "These people," said a person in a position to know recently, "who are planning the erection of this new house feel that up to date vaudeville or musical comedy shows or even the best dramatic shows getting the support on Broadway will be given the same support in colored Harlem at least or a week. The names of the reading Broadway stars mean as much to the colored people as to the white and in time it will be nothing unusual to see in electric lights some of the best European and American stars shining forth in this community." "An advertising campaign to reach everybody as now employed down town will be inaugurated and maintained and no attempt will be made to bring in cheap rinkers from the small time of white vapderville and try to pass these acts off on the colored people as standard acts when they all know better. The white burlesque shows which are only patronized by the roushest element among the whites will also be taboo. From seven to ten thousand colored people is Harlem are prepared to pay the price each week for the host shows and if this venture goes through the proof will be there for those who at this time entertain doubts of its success." JENKINS' BAND AND JUBILEE SINGERS HERE > The Jenkins Orphan band and Jubilee Singers, 100 streng, are scheduled to appear in a mass meeting and concert at the Metropolitan Baptist Church, 127th street and Seventh avenue, next Monday evening. A parade will be staged prior to the meeting. Both Mayor Hylan and Commissioner of Public Welfare Byrd S. Coler have been asked to appear and address the meeting. The president and founder of the Jenkins Orphanage, Charleston, S. C., of which institution the youthful entertainers are inmates, was founded in 1891 by Rev. D. J.

In this age of advanced business methods, whether theatrical or commercial, legitimacy in advertising is the prime factor in the growth of any enterprise. "Bluff" or Bunk" deceptive methods of all sorts are now permanently retired. This is especially true in theatrical advertising. There is but one paying advertisement: GIVE THE PEOPLE A SHOW. This is exemplified beyond the possibility of a doubt in Louis Lesser's "Follies of Pleasure." From the original date of his entry into the musical tabloid field, he has positively excelled in meritorious production, and has grown in popularity until now the mere announcement of the coming of his attraction is all that is necessary as an advertisement. "The shows the thing" is the truest expression ever coined. All the circus advertising you could do would not help a poor attraction. The importance and magnitude of "Folles of Pleasure" are better realized when it is understood that it is, both in artistic as well as numerical strength, one of the largest musical tablobs travelling, containing a galaxy of some of the brightest stars in the musical comedy and vaudeville firmament headed by Ed Jordan, a most unctious, accentric comedian; Chas. Taye, in his inimitable Hebrew impressionation; Tom O'Brien, a light comedian of the Willie Collier style; John Walsh, a very cunning young juvenile; Margaret Bradley, a beautiful young prima donna whom the pavers claim resembles the late Lillian Russell when in the heyday of her success; Sue Madison, a nitty dancing soubrette and Ada West, a most charming and piquant ingenuine. The comedy 'is entitled "Bertha Dav's Birthday." in which many ludicrous situations follow in rapid succession, and one laugh hardly dies out before there is another. Numerous vaudeville acts are also given during the action of the play. The chorus consists of 10 ravishing, sirenic singing and dancing beauties, handsomely gowned, who are the pick of hundreds and every one is an art model. Roosevelt to Open Sunday Theatre at Corner of 145th Street and Lenox Avenue to Open With Big Feature Pictures The Roosevelt Theatre, which closed many weeks. azo, will, we learn, open its doors for the season on the coming Sunday with some of the best features in pictures, and which the management feel will appeal to the picture fans in Harlem. It is said that Manager Corsin will return to carry through the policy inaugurated when the theatre closed for the warm months. Manager Corin has been busy laying plans for a busy season at the Roosevelt, and among the many and most important plans he has made will be an attempt to secure first run pictures for patrons of the house. Some weeks ago it was thought that the theatre would remain closed until late October, but the rumor must have been ill founded as the plans laid out during the early days of June are about to materialise, and an extensive campaign to acquaint the people in the community of the fine offerings will be carried through. H. V. Edwards, the great colored sprint champion, arrived in New York on Monday morning on the Franciscia and is at present residing at the Y. M. C. A. Edwards is being made to feel at home by Roy Morse who states that it will be a few days before the Britsher makes an announcement of his plans, although it is expected that he will appear in the pre-Olympic games being staged by the Wiley A. C. on September 6th NEW YORK AMSTERDAM NEWS, WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 29, 1923 M. B. H. "CAPTAIN" HENRY WILSON. Bold Skipper of the Moonlight Ship Sailing From New Star Casino September 3. "Cap" Will Bring Elks Back for the Moonlight After Painting Chicago Healthy Red the Bold Skipper Will Arrive to Take the Bridge "Cap" Henry Wilson, pilot of the famous Moonlight Ship, left town with the Elks Sunday morning to do his share in helping to paint Chicago a healthy red before returning to take the ship on one of her biggest sails from New Star Casino the coming Monday night, September 3. The captain said before leaving that while ex-Alderman Harris cried for a bigger, better and brighter Harlem, the Moonlight Ship is about to start on a greater, grander and more glorious trip than ever before in her history. Many souvenirs have been secured for the strong and hundreds of balloons will be released from the upper deck at midnight, which will add to the decorations now adorning the good old boat. The evenings being rather cool, "Cap" is playing right into luck as the majority of those going on the sail feel that the nights are just right for the continuous dancing to the strains from Allie Ross' orchestra. Even the crew of the boat seem to share the enthusiasm for the captain and from all reports they are bent on proving to the skipper that the ship is one of the most seaworthy as they will be working on her during the time the pilot is in Chicago. All in all, it will be a grand sail as all the saloon reservations have been taken and the rush will be a big one. "The Governor's Own" Now on Sale at the Harlem Flower, Shop on Seventh Avenue "The Governor's Own" the latest march by Alton A. Adams, the colored naval bandmaster, was placed on sale last week at the Harlem Flower Shop on Seventh Avenue near 138th Street and from all reports the number seems to appeal to many residents of this section. The march was released on the Columbia records on August 20th, and from the reception accorded the piece it is more than likely that Adams will soon send out another one entitled "The Virgin Island March." The composer is at present devoting his spare time from naval duties to gathering the folk lore melodies which many feel will meet with instantaneous favor here, the same as the South American tunes, many of which were robbed and placed on the records by schemers who seem to have reached the end of their rope after the composers got busy and brought some of them to justice. Klan After Lil' Arthur To add to his worries, word came to town the other day that the Ku Klux Klan is after Jack Johnson and will not permit him to appear in a heavyweight battle in Mingo, W. Va., on Labor Day. From the looks of things it would appear that John Arthur is done for as a pugilist, as his recently-announced intention to meet the Italian champion faded away, and he was slated to meet another battler in New Jersey instead. Even this latter fight seems to be up in the air, although his new manager made a noise as though he had coped a fight for Jack. Jack Johnson had a fine chance up to the time he arrived from Leavenworth, when thousands turned out to greet him, but they say that establishing headquarters at the Lafayette and getting into that familiarity with the populace which breeds contempt has taken away the glamour and left Jack a very ordinary individual on Seventh ave. Mgr. Snyder Offers Thomas Meighan in "Homeward Bound" at the Lincoln Mgr. Snyder Offers Thomas Meighan in "Homeward Bound" at the Lincoln While Quintard Miller is Presenting Miniature Musical Comedy Entitled "Miss Dinah of 1923," With Theresa Brooks, Estelle Cash and Others. For the entertainment of patrons of the New Lincoln Theatre on West 135th street Manager Snyder has been bringing a series of miniature musical comedies, and that they are meeting with great success is attested in the fact the manager plans to continue this form of offering as long as they can be secured. Howard's Revue closed two successful weeks at this house last week, to be followed this week by "Miss Dinah of 1923," by Quintard Miller, who left "Liza" to go "on his own" for a while at least. A pealing love theme—these are the principal features of "Homeward Bound," the new Paramount picture starring Thomas Meighan, which will be on view at the Lincoln Theatre for four days beginning today. Lila Lee, who played opposite Mr. Meighan in "The 'Neer-Do-Well,'" is his leading woman in this new screen offering. Mr. Meighan is a seaman in this delightfully crisp story, while Miss Lee is the daughter of a ship owner who' unaccountably detests the sailor in his employ. He is unaware that Jim Bedford, the sailor in question, loves his daughter, and that she returns his love. She goes to sea in a palatial yacht, the command of which had been wrested by Bedford from Svensson, a cowardly skipper. This sets in motion a series of thrilling events which go far to make this perhaps the best sea picture screened in many months. Of course, the finish, although surprising, is pleasing to the spectator. The supporting players are well known screen artists, all of whom add value to the picture as pure entertainment. These include, among others, Charles Abbe, William T. Carleton, Gus Welnberg, Maude Turner Gordon and Cyril Ring. The production was directed by Ralph lince and the story was written by Peter B. Kvne, under the title, "The Light to Leeward." Lincolns Capture Two More at Protectory Oval Lincoln Giants won two more games at the Catholic Protectory Sunday, defeating Ascensions of Philadelphia. Pa., 12 to 7, in a slugget, and Mount Holly, N. J., 5 to 3. Sam Streeter slanted in the first game against Ascension and gave way after four runs were scored on him. Joe Williams taking his place. The-Lincolnis pounded out eleven runs in the last three frames. Dave Brown started the second game but had a bad first inning; was scored on twice. After that he had Mount Holly at his mercy. "High Pocket" hit over the center field for a homer. Thomas made a star running catch with one hand off Ranless' bat in the eighth. Pottsville and Wilmington are booked for Sunday and on Monday, Labor Day, Bacharach Giants play a doubleheader. Now Playing—All THIS Week Miller Producing Co.

(Mechanical Draftsman) and daredevil aviator, of 117 West 141st street, was discharged in the Washington Helights Court last week by Magistrate Sweetser when arraigned for disorderly conduct, on the complaint of his former partner, Simon Bernard, 3441 Seventh avenue. According to Bernard, Julian owed him for a parachute with which he had supplied him. He said that Julian had refused to pay and he took out a summons for him to appear in the civil court at 125th street. When he served the legal document on Julian he charged that the latter on reading it struck him in the face and punched him about the body, necessitating a visit to the doctor and a bill of $10. Julian declared that he had acted in self-defense, and said that Bernard after serving the summons had struck him in an altercation over money which Bernard owed him. He added that he had paid Bernard $110 for the parachute. Julian told Magistrate Barrett on the first arraignment that he wished to make a complaint against Bernard, who, he said, owed him $600. He was referred to the civil courts. In addition to losing the case, Bernard also lost the price of the doctor's bill, which Julian had promised to pay on the first arraignment. KIDS WILL LIKE CIRCUS. The thousands of kiddies in Harlem will be given a great treat if sent or taken to the Lafayette Theatre this week to see the circus which is holding forth at this house. Of all forms of entertainments, this seems to carry the greatest appeal to the youngsters There are many favorites in this little musical skit which include Theresa Brooks, Estelle Cash and others well known in the profession. Alex Lovejoy, formerly with "How Come," is also in the show, and Miller tells us he has a chorus of "prancing beauties" guaranteed to hold their own with the best in the business. In keeping with the policy which has been maintained at this theatre for some time, another big picture will share the honors with the other end of the entertainment.

N. Braithwaite, Director, one of Crack Stenographers of City. The Braithwaite Business School 2376 Seventh avenue, will begin its Fall Term on September 10. This is its fourth year, during which period it has had remarkable success graduating a large number of students, many of whom are now occupying good positions in the civil service, or with private firms in this city. The principal and founder of the school is I. Newton Braithwaite, one of the most skilful stenographers in America. Mr. Braithwaite has been teaching shorthand for 10 years, and is a member of the Pitman Commercial Teachers' Association and also of the National Shorthand Reporters' Association. Last April he passed the examination for court stenographer, which requires the highest standard of efficiency, and a speed of not less than 200 words a minute. One hundred and forty-four candidates sat; 50 passed, of which Mr. Braithwaite, the only colored candidate, came among the first. The school, which is registered by the Regents of the University of New York, has four teachers, occupies two floors, and is thoroughly equipped to furnish a first-class training in stenography, typewriting, bookkeeping, business and literary English, office practice, penmanship, arithmetic and Spanish and to prepare students to take civil service examinations for stenographic and other clerical positions. The teachers are well equipped in their respective lines to impart practical training in the course named. Stenography is taught personally by Mr. Braithwaite. The sessions are at night, the course lasting from six to nine months with tuition more reasonable than other similar places. "Personal attention is given to each student, according to his requirement," said Mr. Braithwaite, "and our teachers rank with the best in the city." There is a greater demand than ever before for men and women who have prepared themselves by specialised educational training to tackle the problems which are confronting the world today. It is the men and women who possess the knowledge that comes through educational training that are chosen to fill the positions which are daily being created in every walk of life; because the employer realizes that the usefulness of his employee is increased in proportion to the amount of his education. It is therefore necessary that he should qualify to take his place among the workers who are in demand, so that his future career shall not be of uncertainty, but shall be sure, because he possesses the thing which makes it so—an adequate education. The school is now open for enrollment, and for visitors. TUSKEEGEE TO HAVE NEW $80,000 DORMITORY TUSKKEGEE INSTITUTE, Ala. Aug. 27—Excavation for the erection of the new $80,000 dormitory for boys at Tuskegee Normal and industrial Institute has begun and the laying of the foundation will begin early this week. The erection of this building will serve to facilitate greatly the housing and handling of the increasing number of boys seeking training at the institute. Work on the building will be pushed as rapidly as possible with the aim of having it ready for occupancy during the incoming year. In accord with the policy of Dr. Booker T. Washington, the founder, the building will be erected by students under the supervision of instructors. HOTEL BELLMAN ON TRIAL- ATLANTIC CITY, N. J., Aug. 27. —Kermit Campbell, a bellman in the Morton Hotel, is on trial here on a charge of stealing $1.081 in travelers' checks and currency from the hotel safe. The money and checks belonged to guests in the hotel. According to the police, Campbell had $609 in currency in his pocket when arrested. Dr. Shellcroft formerly lived in this city and received his medical education at the Long Island College Hospital. While in the city he was an active member and former elective secretary of Hamilton Lodge No. 710. He has kept up his interest and membership in the lodge now for 30 years, but he has not been able to attend a meeting of the lodge in over 27 years until last Wednesday night, at which time he was greeted by a large attendance of the members of the lodge who listened to his interesting speech with much interest. He narrated his early struggles to obtain an education and later his success in his chosen profession. After his graduation from the Long Island College Hospital Medical School he serve as internee at Freedman's Hospital, Washington, for one year, then he took the advice of Horace Greyley and went West, settled in Parkersburg, W. Va., penniless but full of ambition to succeed. His success there has been marvelous. He not only stands high in the general practice of his profession, but he is assistant health officer of the city and a member of the State Board of Education. Dr. Shellcrot, stated that in many respects there seems to be less prejudice in West Virginia than there is in New York; that there are great opportunities there for young men of character and edm'tion who are willing to work hard to get ahead in any of the trades and professions; that State is lined with all kinds of wealth, such as coal, oil, natural gas, copper, etc., besides timber and farm lands, just waiting for the right man to come and get their share of its wealth. By hard work, strict attention to his profession, judgment and sound investments, he has become the largest colored taxpayer of Parkersburg and one of the largest property owners of that city. One thing that the doctor noted was that colored doctors had full and free access to all of the facilities of all of the hospitals of West Virginia, and that fully half of his patients are from the better class of white people of his city. Mrs. Shellcott (nee Miss Maggie Crowder, of Raleigh, N. C.) formerly a teacher in that city, a sister of Mr. Charles J. Crowder, of Brooklyn, has been a constant companion and helpsome to the doctor, both while he was a young struggling doctor and now that he has attained success and wealth. He leaves this week for a month's study at the University of Buffalo, Buffalo, N. Y. Among those present at the dinner were: Dr. and Mrs. John W. Shellcott; Mr. and Mrs. Frederick Hall; Mr. and Mrs. James P. Adair; Mr. Thomas E. B. Ball; Charles J. Crowder; Mr. B. Brown; Mrs. Margaret Brown Gordy; Henry Poole; William S. Palmer; Arthur Williams; Richard Branier; Oscar Bewtner; Arthur G. Derick; George W. Adair, the presiding officer of Hamilton Lodge; Philip Palmer; Mrs. T. O. Wilson; Mrs. Drake; Frederick Swan; Mrs. Leona Johnson. Arthur G. Derrick, the treasurer of Hamilton Lodge, acted as coaster-master and introduced the various rookeries. At a stirring meeting of the executive committee of the West African Republican Club, 206 West 14th Street, Tuesday night, the members went on record as not saving endorsed Counselor James Pill as their candidate for the assembly, and that the article appearing in local papers that the lib has endorsed Mr. Pill was erroneous, spurious and misleading. Thomas H. Evans, chairman of the campaign committee of the D. Dye, of the organization, and Arthur J. Gary, chairman of the executive committee, with harris H. Williams, membership chairman, spoke strongly against ablification of such statements without the endorsement of the lib. Attention, CLASSIFIED ADVERTISER! The N. Y.

SERVICE) HELLO WILL HOW THEY BITIN'? BITIN'? SAY IF THERE EVER WAS A FISH IN THIS POND IT MUST BEEN IN JONAH'S TIME!! I HEAR YOU BOUGHT ACAR AMOS, WHAT KIND DID YOU GET? I GOT ME A NICE FORD I JUST GOT A NEW ROLLS ROYCE. OH WELL, A ROLLS ROYCE IS A PRETTY NICE CAR TOO! Lie Given to Charges Against Filipinos Social Worker of Police Department Says Individual Must Choose Dancing Partners. "Personally I believe that it is up to the individual woman of mature years whom she desires to choose as her dance partner. In regard to the Philippine situation, all I can say is that the Philippines is an American citizen, and has much right to dance in an American dance hall as some of our own licehards." This is the answer of Mrs. Rose Taylor, 611 West 135th street, white welfare officer of the Police Department, to the supposedly vicious dance hall situation created by the young Filipinos. Incidentally, it is the identical position taken by The Amsterdam News months ago. "I have always found," Mrs. Taylor continued, "that the dance hall proprietors are willing to cooperate with the Police Department and to obey our regulations. In the case of the Filipino dancing men, I understand that the young women who are dancing instructors in the halls prefer the Filipinos as partners, because they are more litle as dancers, are more courteous and chivalrous and entertain the American girl in a royal fashion." WELL-KNOWN HARLEM WOMAN PASSES AWAY Mrs. Maude Kirton, of 45 West 128th street, passed quietly away on Saturday, August 18, at 3:20 A.M. She had been indisposed for a short while, but no one thought her illness serious, until three days before her death, when she fell into a state of coma from which she never revived. The deceased was a native of Barbados, B. W. I. She came to this country seventeen years ago, and nine years later married Thomas H. Kirton, one of Harlam's young enterprising undertakers. She was of a sunny disposition and her amiable ways won her many friends. On last Tuesday her funeral services were conducted at St. Luke's chapel, by the Rev. E. Elliot Durant, assisted by the Revs. Clifton Coleman and Edmund in the presence of a very large number of sorrowing friends. Her remains were laid to rest in Woodlawn Cemetery. She leaves benhind to mourn their loss her husband, mother, son and a host of friends. GA.

Temporarily abandoning his experiments to find a substitute for gasoline, the druggist emerged from behind the counter and halted the window dresser. "John, I've kind of lost track. Is there a comedy on at the theater this week?" "No, sir, a sad play." "Very sad!" "Weezy." "Then take the chocolates out of the window and put in smelling salts."-Pittsburgh Chronicle Table Beauty Culturist Meeting Adjourns Delegates Attend From All the Principal Cities. The fourth annual convention of the National Beauty Culturist League was held at St. Mark's Hall, 57 West 138th street, New York City, August 14, 15 and 16, which was largely attended by hairdressers from Chicago, Detroit, Kansas City, St. Louis, Philadelphia, New York, Brooklyn, and other cities. The mornings of the convention were spent in business for the good of the organization and afternoons were devoted to demonstrations of permanent wares, jewelry, hawking, facial massages and other forms of beauty culture by leading hairdressers. It was very interesting to see the booths of various colors, stocked with preparations made by race men and women. Evenings were taken up with concerts at which prominent speakers made short addresses. The convention ended Thursday evening with a dantant and collure review. At 10:30 the floor was cleared for a song and toe dance by little "Kewple Doll." She was highly applauded. The installation of officers followed, and then the collure review. The prizes were awarded for the most artistic headress. The first prize was won by Mrs. Helen W. Robinson of Brooklyn, a member of Local No. 35 of Brooklyn. Mrs. Robinson's hair was dressed by Mme. Baird of Ethel's Salon, 203 West 183th street, New York City. The second prize to Mme. Day, third prize to Mrs. Terry for their exhibits. The Brooklyn local entertained the members and delegates at a luncheon given in their honor at Fleet Street Church, Brooklyn, Friday, August 17.

Mary Epps was mistress of ceremonies. At the close of the program a beautiful bouquet of rosebuds was presented by Mrs. H. Robinson in behalf of the local to Mrs. Hattie M. Wilson, President, for her faithful services during the year. HEARD ON THE HIGHWAY. The Fredonia Erardal says it took a long time to locate "the latest man in the country," but "You guessed right, gentle leader; that man is none other than Delbert Russell. Listen to this: Whenever Mrs. Russell accompanies him in the car and he has trouble trouble Rus hides in the weeds somewhere, leaving his wife the first man who comes along as the lady alone in the car just naturally stops and fixes the fire. As soon as the friend in need departs our hero steps out and starts on his way." But a contemporary says it wouldn't call that brother "lazy"; he's a genius.—Altanta Constitution. HIS RELATIVITY THEORY. An old judge had grown tired of the petty interests and conveniences of his court. Desiring to live closer to native he built his home on the outskirts of the town. One day he met a number of the younger legal lights who were inclined to think the old judge rather eccentric, and he, in turn, did not agree with them as to their importance upon earth. "But, judge," one of the leading lights said, "you live so far out." "So far out!" So far out!" the judge spouted. "So far from where, from whom, yet I am just as close to the sun, moon and stars Dr. William L. Bulkley to Make His Home in France; Served 24 Years. Dr. William L.

There will be no charge of adm The Vamp and The Virgin A Serial Story of Negro Life and Love HE Virgin was in his room, engaged in an earnest pow-wow with his chum, Joe Grimes. He had felt that if he didn't confide in somebody he'd burst; so he was telling Joe the whole story of his love affair, omitting only the girl's name. Joe had filled his pipe but he grew so interested that he forgot to light it. "Gee, Virgin," cried Joe, when the story was finished. "she must be a poach for looks and charm. I like to meet her myself. And you—well, you surprise me, making such fast time. I didn't know it was in you. Yet that's the way it goes; the novice comes in and wins the money. So her old man caught you and wring your neck—ha, ha! Wouldn't I like to have seen your face? And, say, Virgin, suppose she had made good her threat to leave the house with you—what on earth would, you have done?" "I don't see any joke in it," said the Virgin. "But really, now, Joe, would you consider yourself engaged to the girl?" "That is," said Joe, seriously, "does she belong to the class of girls from which fuzzy fellows like us would choose our wives? You know, rightly or wrongly, men judge their obligations to a girl by the girl's general standing." "This girl's standing is one of the best in Boston by your own account," said the Virgin. "By my account!" exclaimed Joo. "Do you mean to say I know her?" "You certainly do. Since I've confided in you, I may as well go the whole length and tell you who she is." "Well, I'm all ears." "It is Beatrix Marley." "Beatrix Marley! Great jumping Jeboahhat!" Joe blinked at the Virgin for a moment, then he broke forth with a string of highly seasoned expletives, the mildest of which was: "I'll be hanged!" "You're surprised, oh!" laughed the Virgin. "No," said Joe, sarcastically. "I thought it was the Queen of Sheba, Princess Patricia, the Czarina, or somebody like that. I'm not surprised, Virgin." he said, more sincerely: "I'm only amazed, dumfounded, stumped, knocked cold. Beatrix Marley, of all women! I thought you were the one man she'd never get to." "I don't quite understand you, Joe," said the Virgin, coldly; "your tone savors of disrespect." "No, Virgin. I only take my hat off to Miss Marley, that's all. She has seen you only twice, and already she's got you wondoring whether it is your duty to marry her." "I tell you," said the Virgin, impatiently, "she's done nothing. I'm the active party, or the guilty one, if you wish to put it that way. Do you think she asked me to kiss her? I made her, I tell you." You really think so. "You—Sh, well," said the Virgin, "you've seen so many impure things and people that you don't know innocence when you see it. She loves me, I tell you. She stood out against her own father for me; she was ready to leave her home for me. A fine sort of man I'd be to doubt her after that." "Virgin," said Joe, currently "do you really think Beatrix Marley loves you?" "Oh, I know you don't like you as much as said so." Bloody Monday Night, when I never dreamed that I was destined to meet, her less than an hour later. You think she's a Carmen, who sets out to trap man, rob them of their manhood, and then drop them for somebody else. I didn't believe you then, and I don't believe you now. That's one reason why I did not mention her name at first when I told you my story. I wanted your unbaused opinion and I knew you were prejudiced against her." "And now that I know she's the girl, I suppose you don't want my advice." "I do want it, if you can give it impartially. I'm sorry I told you it was she; I didn't intend to, but when a man starts telling a thing he generally tells more than he meant to. You don't know Bestrin, Joe. She's the finest girl I ever saw, all life and love and goodness. If you could only have seen her when she rushed between me and her father!" "Maybe she wanted to save her father from being hunged for murder." "And when she tried to take all the blame upon herself," said the Virgin, rapidly, ignoring Joe's remark. "Or when she told them she loved me." "Very dramatic I confess," said Joe, without enthusiasm. "Even Sarah Barnhardt would relish a scene like that." "Joe," said the Virgin, resolved to be patient with this humidum plodder of the ways of the earth, "your trouble is that you don't believe in anybody, women least of all. You can't imagine such a thing as a pure motive." "Don't I, though? You'll always called me the college cynic. Wail, what's a cynic but one who suspects the worst while secretly hoping for the beat? As for believing in people, why, I know a little girl now—" "Fresh-checked country maiden," interrupted the Virgin, "innocent, cow-milking and all that." "No, sir," said Joe, shortly, "Country life and innocence are not necessarily the same thing. I know a girl once who milked cows and she also milked my pocketbook." "How?" asked the Virgin. "I won't go into detainee." said Joe, with a wry face. "But the little girl I started to tell you about lives right in New York City, and she's lived there ever since she was born. Cynie though I am, I'd believe anything she told me." "So you're in love, too?" said the Virgin. "I love you." Joe encalmed. "I didn't say I was in love; I only said I believe whatever this little girl told me." "When you believe anything a girl tells you, you love her." "Virgin!" said Joe, started. "You've certainly learned a lot in these last few weeks. Sometimes I think a good, throughgoing love affair is the best education in the world." "You say you believe in your girl's sincerity," said the Virgin, "yet you don't Lelleve Beatrix is sincere." "They are different girls, Virgin." "That wouldn't affect my belief in the slightest." said Joe, smiling. "Well, we've wandered from the point at issue. Laying aside whatever admits me." have of Miss Marley's sincerity, do you think I should consider myself engaged to her? "You haven't asked her to marry you and received her consent, so you're not engaged. You know that much yourself." "Now, Joe," said the Virgin, "don't evade the question. You might have put me off with that answer two weeks ago, but, as you say, I've learned a lot. Beatrix has opened my eyes." "Or closed them," murmured Joe. "No," continued the Virgin missing the point of Joe's mark. "she's opened them. You know as well as I as that mere act of proposing and being accepted is the least part of an engagement. A man can be under obligation to merry-girl without having said the least word about marriage. Now, hasn't Beatrix a right to expect me to marry her? nights and love are not the same. You can't do her love you to the exclusion of all other men, you ought to marry her. But you had better bide your time and make sure of her love." "I'm sure of it already!" cried the Virgin, springing up and walking the floor in rapture. "Not from her words, not from her kisses, but from what she is hersek. Ah, boy, if you tell me!—things that her lips would never dare to tell! She loves me! She loves me!" "Rave on," said Joe. "Rave on!" (To Be Continued Next Week.) Thomas Jesse Jones Defends Colored Race WILLIAMSTOWN. M a s s. Aug. 27.—At a round-table discussion of inter-racial relationships in the Institute of Politics, now in session at Williams College, Prof. William D. McDougall, Democrat with Southern incidences, submitted a paper on "Race as a Factor in World Politics." The paper attacked the colored people viciously, and tended to show that they are inferior and "are spreading their inferiority among the white people." These conclusions were ally refuted by Dr. Thomas Jesse Jones, noted sociologist, who paid tribute to the inherent ability of the Negro, and insisted that, as a basis for the solution of the problem, there must arise an increased respect among white peoples for the possibilities of the development of the Negro. Colored Woman Named on Educational Board CHARLESTON, W. Va. Aug. 27. —Mrs. Irene Moats, of Clarksville, a graduate of Ohio State University and a prominent colored teacher in this State, has been appointed by Governor E. F. Morgan to membership upon the State Educational Board. The Governor said this was his answer to an attempt made by the Democratic lower house in the Legislature to discontinue appropriations for Negro welfare work in West Virginia. Assistant City Architect PITTSBURGH, Pa., Aug. 27. —Mayor Magee has appointed Louis B. Bellinger as assistant to the city architect. Bellinger is a college graduate and is a regular practicing architect and one of the few Negroes of the country who is registered to practice under rigid State laws.

Mayor Seabrook and the Board of Trade sent a special invitation to the Knights of Pythias, now in session in New York City, asking them to come to this city to hold their encampment in 1825. If the Pythians accept the invitation to come here it will bring more than 10,000 Negroes from all parts of the country to this city next year to attend the meeting of the Supreme Council of the Dodge of K. of K. President Negroes have assured that the next meeting will be held in this city as indications that the general objections raised by the northern contingent will be overcome. Many northern members of the organization do not care to come to the South on account of the Jim-crow cars, the general bad treatment that Negroes receive in the South. It is believed that a large number of northern members will not attend the next meeting if it is held in the South, but the delegation left here with a special invitation, backed with all kinds of assurance that the members of the organization will be treated in the best of style and given every protection possible. It is claimed by southerners that many Negroes who have never been South will then have an opportunity to become acquainted with real southern hospitality.

An Interesting Sidelight THE WORD BATTLE being waged be- tween Mayor Hylan and Frank D. Water- man, of fountain pen fame, following the for- “jiier’s charge. that the latter discriminated against Jews and Catholics in his factory, furnishes an interesting sidelight on the race problem. Mr. Waterman declares that there are 440 Roman Catholics, 32 Jews and 350 Protestants employed in his factory. In the business office there are 106 Roman Cath- olics. 8 Jews and 94 Protestants. HOW MANY OF THESE EM- PLOYEES ARE NEGROES? Possibly not ‘a one, as colored employees are not gener- ally: designated simply as Protestants. The same distinctions are made, as a rule, in em- ployment records as are made in every-day life. AND YET, Mr. Waterman states that if the Mayor can prove that he has “ever dis- uriminated against any one because of their race or religion” he will donate $1,000 to any charity the Mayor will name. We are sure that in the many years Mr. Waterman has been an employer he or his assistants has had applications from colored men and wo- ‘men. What disposition has been made of them? Are they given the same opportun- ity? We doubt it. Unless the policy of the ‘Waterman firm has changed recently, not even a colored elevator operator is employed in his big plant under the Brooklyn Bridge. IS IT POSSIBLE that in this so-called land of Liberty, discrimination of the Negro has become so calloused as not to be rec- ognized? Or do both the Mayor and Mr. ‘Waternisg. consider the Negro less than hu- man? It seems to us that all the Mayor should have to do to win $1,000 for charity is to say that the Fountain Pen King has discriminated against Negroes. Well Said \ WASHINGTON CORRES! xpresses it, “Of all the can tentative and receptive, wh { for the Democratic nominati one will acknowledge any fri colored American or any sy citizenship. If any one of the ny of these attributes of huma efully guarded the secret, | AS A WASHINGTON CORRESPOND- ENT expresses it, “Of all the candidates, logical, tentative and receptive, who have appeared for the Democratic nomination, pot @ single one will acknowledge any friendship for the colored American or any sympathy with his citizenship. If any one of them pos- sesses any of these attributes of humanity he has carefully guarded the secret, lest he might prejudice his chances for the prefer. ment of the Democratic Convention.” “IN SOME CASES their record upon this matter {s sufficient, as is cited by Senator ‘Underwood and W. G. McAdoo, but unies they rig rottenly true against the Negro their sexts in the bigh councils of the party will remais conspicuously vacaat. It was ua- der Mr. McAdoo, es Secretary of the Treas- ury, that the first segregation of racial em- ployees was accomplished in the United States Government. “THERE 18 MUCH TALK of Governor Al Smith as the standard bearer of the great wn- terrified and unwashed Democracy in 1934. ‘While it is to be doubted that the Gov- ‘ernor's ‘wetful predictions wit! be sufficient to Dring him isto the realization of bis aspire- tions, whether they do or not he will be placed to the extremity of declaring bimself against the Negro, else bis chances will dwin- die to sero. . “THE DEMOCRATIC requirements are plainly put. The South, home of distran- chisement, lynching, discrimination ané peon- ‘age, is the warp and woof and the palladium of all Democratic hopes. Unless you hate the Negro you just cannot be © Democrat, be- cause the South will withhold its okey and stamp of approval. The Democratic party in the South rendered itself possible by robbing the Negroes of their rights as citisens, and the Northern Democrat cannot be elected or even nominated unless he subscribes himself to the ‘principles’ that condone and approve this robbery. “WILSON FOUND this out when he tore into bits the letter he had written Bishop Walters. “THERE 18 NO gainsaying that you must be against the Negro or you cannot sit in the Democratic game, which is not @ Negro limit, but an absolute Negro exclusion. The stakes include the ill-gotten electorate of the South, and any disposition in favor of the colored American citizens who are the victims of the injustice renders any man ineligible for the Democratic nomination for President, because he cannot be # Democrat.”" WELL SAID. .
