Ride in a Taxi Driven by a Negro— REVERAL TAXI COMPANIES REFUSE TO EMPLOY COLLORED SHAUFFEURS 'BREAK THE BONDS' BY REFURING TO RIDE IN THESE CARS.
THREE 'LOVE NESTS' RAIDED
American Negro
Labor Congress
HEADED by Mr. Lovette
Fort-Whitman, sup-
Fort-Whiteman, supported by its organ, "The Negro Champion," and advocating a maze of objectives involving school attendance, tenant and share-farming, organization, child labor, peonage, social life, etc., the American Negro Labor Congress has launched its campaign, to culminate in a convention at Chicago on October 25, 1925. Exhaustive propaganda is being used to depict the aims and purposes of the A.N.L.C., and reports indicate that the Congress is using intensive methods to foster and promote its program. Not being informed, at first hand, of the merits or merits of the A.N.L.C. movement, the following comments are uttered in a neutral tone, based upon the actual propaganda and opinion being used for and against the movement.
The propaganda of the A. N. L. C. has a dual personality. It resembles that of the Marcus Garvey movement and, at the same time, is not unlike that of W. Z. Foster (white), who heads up the so-called Workers' Party of America. In fact, says an organ of the American Federation of Labor: "Whitman has been delegated by the Workers' (Communist) Party of America, which takes orders from the Russian Third International to organize an American Colored Labor Conference. It is the purpose to model the 'Congress' along the lines of W. Z. Foster's privately owned Trade Union Educational League, and now that his (Foster's) bunco game is playing out as a money-giver among white folks, Foster has turned his attention to the colored brethren and has begun an active campaign to sell his quick political nostrum to the class of American citizens." On the other hand, the propaganda of the A. N. L. C. purposes to depict genius relief to the working classes of the world, aiming at "Imperialism" and holding itself forth as the curative of industrial oppression. From New York comes the rumor that A. N. L. C. is largely composed of unnaturalized West Indians and other aliens who have no claim to the title "American."
Foster's activities, now on the skids, are well remembered, and the impetus which the so-called communistic wave gained in labor circles some years ago has died out. Then, too, it cannot be seen how any movement in the labor world which has aroused the fire of the American Federation of Labor can hope to succeed. Nevertheless, the A. N. L. C. will be carefully watched by many groups of American workmen and, if it is on the square, it will receive support. On the other hand, if it is merely the vehicle of a deluded group which desires to pervert American labor institutions, it will, like its predecessors, be broken up on the rocks of safe and rane American solidarity, not perfect by any means, but the best that could be perfected up to this day and time.

The former undertaking establishment of J. C. Thomas, located at 89 West 134th street, now occupied by the Harlem Bible Tract Society, was gutted out by fire of unknown origin yesterday morning at three o'clock. The fire was discovered by Patrolman Smith of the Sixteenth Precinct, who turned in the alarm.
Tenants living on the upper floors of the building had narrow escapes before they were rescued by firemen and volunteers. Patrolman Lewis Chism, his wife and brother, who live in the building, were among those rescued from the burning building.
It is not known how the fire started. Many persons are inclined to believe that it was the work of a "firebug."
In order to more efficiently fight the flames, firemen broke through No. 87 West 134th street, the first floor of which is occupied by the barber shop of J. D. Webb.
GUARD DETROIT HOME WITH GUNS
DETROIT, Mich., July 15.—For the third time in three weeks there have been racial flareups here in the exclusive Grand River avenue residential section.
This last disturbance was caused Saturday night, following the removal in the morning of a colored family into a house near Livernois and Grand River avenues.
White residents gathered and stormed the house, whose occupants opened fire on the white mob. A white boy was injured. The firing soon dispersed the mob.
Banners of the Ku Klux Klan have been circulated, calling for a mass meeting of the white residents July 15.
Three nights ago another colored family defended itself with gun
ALCOHOL TRANSACTION INVOLVES DRUGGIST
Wilbert Gilliard Held for Further Hearing Thursday on Charge of Grand Larceny Growing Out of Purchase of Liquor
The hearing of the charge of grand larceny against Wilbert Gilliard, a druggist, Lenox avenue, near 135th street, was discontinued Monday morning in the Washington Heights Court, to be continued Thursday morning before Magistrate Silberman.
According to testimony of A. Morfil, a wholesale druggist of 641 Lenox avenue, Gilliard purchased some sundry goods and issued a check for the purchase when there were not sufficient funds to cover the check.
On the cross-examination of Mogil by Gilliard's attorney it was pointed out that the transaction had been for the sale of alcohol, and not for sundries.
Following their usual business practice, Gilliard gave an order for so many gallons of alcohol about May 23 and issued a check at that time, it is claimed. Several days later what the liquor was delivered it was found to be wood alcohol instead of grain. Gilliard then

Preliminary Tryout of Soprano Voices Well Under Way
Applicants Who Failed to Appear on Scheduled Dates Will Be Admitted Friday --- Several Letters Returned Marked "Not Found."
THE committee in charge of the preliminary tryouts in connection with the Free Course of Instruction and Training in Grand Opera Singing, offered by Edoardo Ferrari - Fontana. Metropolitan Opera House star, was swamped with applicants Friday evening, in the basement of the 135th Street Branch of the New York Public Library, where the tryouts are being held.
As voice after voice was tested for its quality and range, it became evident that Mr. Fontana will have something like fifty voices, from which to make his final selection. Very few of the large number of young women and girls who made application for the award had poor voices.
More tryouts will be held tonight (Wednesday) at 7:00 P.M.
Friday night, July 17, at the same hour, will practically see the winding up of this part of the work, except for applicants living out of the city.
Applicants who, for one reason or another, were unable to come for a tryout on the day they were notified to appear, will be given a second opportunity Friday at 7:00 P.M. Be sure to bring the letter you received from the Musical Editor, so that you may be easily identified. The tryouts are not open to the public.
Letters addressed to several applicants were returned, marked "Not Found," by the post office carrier. Any person who sent in an application and who did not receive a letter telling them when and where to apply for the preliminary tryout will also be admitted Friday night at the Library. Bring one or two pieces of music with which you are familiar if possible.

Birthday Party Marred by Killing
Police Scouring Harlem for Ivan Riley—Shot Fired Through Door
Police are scouring Harlem for Ivan Riley, 34, 69 West 13th street, for the alleged murder of Mrs. Miza Matthews, 23, in the hallway of her sister's home, 20 East 132d street, Sunday morning.
It is charged that Riley fired two shots through the panel of the door in an attempt to kill Mrs. Belle Murray, the murdered woman's sister, after she had refused to admit him into her home.
An elaborate birthday celebration in honor of the women's sister from Washington, D. C., was in progress when the shooting took place. The woman was struck by one of the bullets in the chest.
According to the version of the shooting told by Mrs. Murray, Riley knocked at the door. She opened it. Mrs. Matthews, her sister, was with her at the time. Upon scouring Riley, the two accounts showed the door in his face.
A moment later five revolver shots rang out, one of the bullets striking Mrs. Matthews. While some of the panic stricken guards rushed to the aid of the unconscious woman, others darted downstairs after the murderer, but he was too fast for them.
Woman Disclaims Owning Revolver
Freed on Charge of Violating the Sullivan
Catherine Parker, 2222 Fifth avenue, who was held on a charge of violating the Sullivan Law, was released when she was arraigned before Magistrate McQuade in the Washington Heights Court Tuesday morning.
About 1 A. M. last Sunday morning a group of young people, engaged in a quarrel, were standing on the corner of 115th street and Fifth avenue.
The increasing noise at that intersection attracted the attention of a policeman, who was several blocks away. When the officer approached the scene, the young people quickly scattered. The Parker woman was the only one who remained and a revolver was found lying on the ground where she was standing, it was alleged. The officer arrested her for possessing the weapon.
On cross-examination of the officer by Attorney Richard L. Cunningham, 1133 St. Nicholas avenue, counsel for the defendant, it was brought out that the weapon was not the property of the Parker woman and was not in her possession at the time of her arrest.

PRIVATE DETECTIVE AGENCY IN THREE 'SPECTACULAR' RAIDS
Prominent Washingtonians Trapped in Room Here—Fraternal Man's Wife Accompanies Operatives—Divorce Action to Follow
As a result of an investigation made by the Boulin's National Detective Agency a few weeks ago, which resulted in a raid on the premises at No. 244 West 136th street. Mr. Oscar L. Paine, of 84 West 134th street, through his attorneys, Dyett, Hall & Patterson, has brought suit for absolute divorce against his wife, Mrs. Isabel C. Paine, of Washington, D. C.
Mr. Paine claimed that when he and the detective entered the premises they found a man by the name of James E. Thomas undressed and in his wife's room. Mr. Thomas is said to conduct a business at No. 1009 New Jersey avenue, N.W., Washington, D.C., and is a property owner of that city.
The husband claimed that he had accused his wife of undue friendship since his return from France in 1909. After the raid, Mrs. Paine, 8, is said, pleaded with the detective not to mediate the name of Mr. Thomas in the divorce proceedings, as he too is well known in Washington. More than that he has a family there.
She further is said to have promised that if Thomas' name was omitted from the record she would not defend the suit.
Lodge Head Trapped

Detectives claim that on several occasions they saw Mr. Paine and Thomas in the rooms together. The estranged couple were married September 19, 1907, by the Rev. Geo. W. Lee, pastor of Vermont Baptist Church, Washington, D. C. The trouble started in 1812 when Thomas came on the scene. They were separated in 1829 and Mr. Paine continued to live at
FROM SAVANNAH, GA,
TO N. Y. ON BICYCLE
It only took Frank Allen, 17, fifteen days to reach New York on a bicycle from Havannah, Ga. Allen arrived in New York early Monday morning. While he was passing through Columbia, E. C., he was forced to lay down in a ditch with his bicycle until a white farmer passed with a mule hitched to a buggy, he said.
Boys Steal Gallon of Ice Cream
Charged with striking David Merril, 16, 345 West 136th street, on the head with a club, John Farwell, 26, 205 West 123rd street, a chauffeur for an ice-cream company, was held in $1,000 ball when he was arraigned before Magistrate Silberman in Washington Heights Court Monday morale. While Farwell was delivering cream in a store at 141st street and Seventh avenue, a group of boys raided his truck and took a gallon can of cream.
Searching for the young bandita, he found a group of youngsters on a roof near 141st street and Seventh avenue eating ice-cream. When Farwell attempted to find out the guilty parties he was attached by the youngsters, it is alleged. In self-delivery Farwell said that as took a club and struck Merril on the head.
500 B street, Washington, D. C.
Mrs. Paine has retained Attorney
Cormilus McDougald to contest
the case.
The neighbors of 338 East 1500th street, Bronx, were treated to a midnight performance on Thursday, July 9, when a raiding party from the same private detective agency descended upon a room on the third floor, west, where they say they found Louis A. Brodie, of 1008 Brook avenue, undressed in a room with a woman by the name of Annie Jefferies, Mrs. Brodie accompanied the detectives. Mrs. Brodie contemplates legal proceedings against her husband and the Jefferies woman.
She stated that he has been in the habit of staying away at nights and writing love letters to Mrs. Jefferies.
One of the letters, dated July 8, follows:
"My Dear Friend:
"Everything is fine, everything is working pretty, no trouble at all, no suspicion. I will be there tomorrow at 8 p. m., so have the coast clear as I have a very short time to spend."
The Brodies are members of the Union Baptist Church and he is a member of several lodges, including the Meadows and Oddiellows. They were married 27 years ago in Blanche, N. C. The wife accused him with staying away at nights and of non-support.
Still Another
Still another raid took place about 1 a.m. yesterday. Mrs. Hester Davis, of 11% West 127th street, accompanied by several operatives from the Beaulin Agency, surprised her husband, Ramesh W. Davis, in a room on the ground floor of 124 West 139th street, with a Miss Beale Thurma. Miss Thurma, it is said, after being severely beaten by the evil wife, made her escape to the exsct in her black silk pajamas. The detectives had trailed Davis and the woman to Coney Island and several other places. It is understood that Mrs. Davis is going to start divorce actions for absolute divorce through her attorney, J. P. Ishl.
The couple were married in Henderson, N. O., on June 15, 1915, by the Rev. Anderson. She accused him of deserting her in 1925 and of taking away her furniture on another occasion while she was away.
DAVID is a Brunner at the Walton Hotel.

Bast Seventy-fifth Street Cook Fails in Attempt to Take Own Life-Bullet Grazes Head and Chest
---
Harrison Boyd, 35, a cook, 233 East 75th street, is being held in custody, awaiting his trial on a charge of first degree murder. Because his wife, Mrs. Nina Boyd, 33, 206 East 85th street, jilted him for the love of another man and refused to return to him Boyd fired four shots at and instantly killed her in the hallway at 131 East 60th street, where she had been employed as a maid, Saturday.
Following his firing at his wife, he pointed the gun at his head and pulled the trigger, but the bullet merely grasped his head and lodged in his chest. Having emptied his gun, he left the scene and went to

The employer of the murdered woman, Mrs. Caroline Dew, did not hear the report from the .32-caliber revolver and was informed of the tragedy by an iceman, who discovered the body lying in the hallway when he was in the act of placing ice in a refrigerator.
Boyd kept close watch on the residence, where his wife had been staying from an early hour in the morning, for her to come out of the house. He then followed her to the Dew residence. Gaining entance to the house, Boyd pleaded with Mrs Boyd to return to him, but she refused him point-blank. He then drew a revolver from his pocket and in rapid succession fired four shots. Two of them pierced her breast and the other two lodged in her arm.
Hoping to end it all, he said, Boyd then fired at his own head in an attempt to kill himself, but the bullet struck him a glancing blow.
Although suffering from his wound, he walked from his home, after changing his shirt, to the East 61th street police station and surrendered himself, turning the gun over to Lieutenant John Casey, who was on desk duty. Casey immediately notified Detectives Nicholas Campo and James Smith, who took Boyd into custody. He was removed to the prison ward at Bellevue Hospital, where he related the story of the shooting and the causes that led up to it. Boyd is a native of Bristol, Va., and has been in New York only three years. He was married two and a half years.
"Judge" Bailey Fined
$2 by Magistrate
Rufus Bailey, alias "Judge" Bailey, 16 West 130th street, was fined $2 for driving without license Wednesday morning when he was arraigned before Magistrate Farrell in the Manhattan Traffic Court. The whole courtroom was in an uproar when the attendant called "Judge" Bailey. Because of his self-styled title and on the promise that he would get the license at once, the magistrate gave him a light fine.
Colorful News "Movies"
(Continued from Page 1.)
we have been able, with any degree of pride, to look into the past and fortify ourselves against the "supremacy" club which the Anglo-Saxons have long had over our heads.
Like Topsy, historically we just grew; but Dr. Woodson has woven into his pages of Negro history sufficient facts to convince the world that this dark content of America, with its varied hues, can authentically point to the past with as much consolation as any other face.
The work Dr. Woodson has performed has called for unending self-sacrifice. A poor boy himself, engaged in the laborious work of the hand, he saw the vision of education, which ended in his having conferred upon him the highest degree from America's most renowned university. In the interim he was inspired to take up the burden of reducing Negro history to practicable record form, in which work he is still engaged. After almost tearful persuasion to enlist the sympathy of others who saw the tremendous value and influence of Negro history, and amid trying difficulties, Dr. Woodson set himself to the trying task of compiling facts concerning the Negro, both in his native land and in America. His work has been well done, and the pages which he has wrought out of the dark past of the Negro, in themselves, make one of the most signal services which any Negro has ever performed in behalf of his people. Dr. Woodson's historical works are being used in many Negro schools in the United States. By right they should be absorbed by every living American Negro, who should see himself and his ancestors as Dr. Woodson sees him and them.
Dr. Woodson is a profound scholar, a Christian gentleman of high ideals, and one of our strongest proponents of unselfish service to the race. His life and his work are outstanding and are loved and cherished by all who have intrinsic pride in high endeavor and the unselfishness of real service.
The Skeptic
NO GREATER baneful destroyer of racial hopes exists than the skeptic — the brother who lacks confidence in himself and his race. We have met several different varieties of this member of the Four Horsemen, and it is both painful and pitiful to see him apply his extinguisher to the comfortable warmth of racial advancement. One skeptic, a physician, said he never paid any attention to what he read in Negro newspapers — that it was all bunk, and he could get enough real news by reading the white dailies. Another, a Negro business man, said he had no use for Negro lawyers, all of whom were N.G. A modest washerwoman, whose rent was, raised every quarter or so, said she'd rather pay her rent to a white agent; while another prominent doctor, with a lucrative practice among his own people, always "cut in" a white undertaker whenever he could. Still another skeptic said he did not have much use for colored dentists; and most of the brothers and sisters living near the young colored druggist on the corner went downtown for everything, excepting ice cream sodas and postage stamps.
SKEPTICISM is the withering fire which is DEVASTATING to racial endeavor and economic independence. Its proponents continually cut off their noses to spite their heads, for some time or other skeptism comes home to roost, no matter how unwelcome it may be. It is readily admitted that charlatans, quacks, and inefficients are present in overwhelming numbers, a condition which exists among all racial groups. But this should bring no solace to the withering trail of the skeptic who, here and there, dashes cold water on Negro business and Negro professional life. The skeptic is a sinmure criminal, void of pride and acuteness important, and he should be driven from the household of racial effort. For this is a day of optimism for those whose faces are set towards the day of economic emancipation. Producers must be equalized by consumers, and knocks must be given away to hoaxes. Also, what new hopes will our children have for future days? Shall they continue to be days of unnecessary doubt or daze of grandeur or solidarity among all the unites of a struggling people, who need concentrated help from within as well as from without?
Mr. Bryan Broadcasts
WILLIAM JENNINGS BRYAN, now of Florida, ardent advocate of grape juice, free silver, 16 to 1, and counsel for the State in the Tennessee evolution case, has again taken to broadcasting. This time, we note, with some satisfaction, that the ex-Nebraskan has added the Constitution to his program, and upon the historic paragraphs of that document the Commoner has spoken long and earnestly; but, as usual, without much logic. After sparkling references to the case of Dred Scott, the escaped Negro slave, who, in the fifties, although having reached a free State, was held to be subject to the laws of the slave State from he had fled, Mr. Bryan says: "Who made the courts? Who made the Constitution? The people! The people can change the Constitution, and if necessary they can change the decisions of the courts." One of two things is true of Mr. Bryan's little red wagon, at least so far as his adopted hailiwick is concerned, and that is, either as in Genesis of old, the people rested after their arduous tasks of providing a magna charta for all the people, or else, as usual, Mr. Bryan is mistaken. We modestly think that probably the substitution of the words "Some of the people" would remove all chances of Mr. Bryan's having violated one of the sacred Commandments.
At any rate, down in the Floridian Everglades some of the people are protected by the Constitution, and some—a very large "BUM"—are not. Testimony taken before the House Committee which investigated a Florida election showed that, because some of the people wanted to have the privilege of the voting benefits of the Constitution, they were run out of the State; while others, on a sort of a 1 to 16 plan, were beaten up and intimidated. And neither the courts nor the Constitution of Mr. Bryan's State gave fullest protection, to those poor black people who merely sought the right of the electorate, that they might have a voice in the choices for public office to serve ALL—not SOME—of the PEOPLE.
Poor Mr. Bryan, used to defeat, mistaken though he is, would perform a national service in his fealty to the Constitution and to the people by returning to the Everglades of Florida and reiterating his statements there, at the same time urging his fellow citizens to practice what he preaches. This might bring about an EVOLUTION in Florida FAR MORE VALUABLE to the country at large than the one which Mr. Bryan is butting into in Sunny Tennessee.
"I Heard"
I heard that Jim Jones had left his wife; that Smith had whipped his kid; that Carter pulled a carving knife and awful damage did. I heard our minister drank booze; and had some fearful apees; that Elder Jones lets curse words loose, and said that Hell would froze. I heard my wife was riding 'round the town with different men; that Green some cash was hiding which should put him in the pen. I heard that for ten bucks apiece some gold bricks you could buy; that Mary's cousin's uncles niece would chest and steel and lie. In fact, of evil things. I heard enough to fill a book; most everybody had some word to say of crook or hook. The good things, though, were never told of any friends I claimed. Their valorous acts were left to mould. Their good deeds left unnamed.
Take Jailer's Pistol and Keys and Escape
HARRODSBURG. Ky. July 18. Jim Davis and Willis Smith, prisoners, escaped from the jail here after attacking Jalfer J. L. Demarco and taking his pistol and keys. The two forced the jailer behind a cell door and squeezed him. Two of his ribs may be fractured.
When the men were being taken back to their cell they contrived to keep the cell door slightly open and, when Demarave returned about half an hour later they leaped upon him. Other doors of the jail were unlocked by them. A pouse is seeking them. Davis is charged with murder and Smith with robbery.
"FOURTH" VICTIM
2 Held as "Lemon Pool" Operators
Charged With Fleecing Man Out of $52 of His Savings
James Gillian and Fred Booker, addresses unknown, alleged operators of "the lemon pool game," were held in $10,000 bail when they were arraigned before Magistrate Silberman in Washington Heights Court Monday morning.
Gillian, it is charged, approached Muriel Martin, 434 St. Nicholas avenue, an employee of the Edison Electric Light Company, at 140th street and Eighth avenue, to ask him to keep $900 for him while he went into a house on St. Nicholas avenue for some jewelry belonging to him.
Martin had just drawn $52 from his postal savings account and was implored later by an unknown man with Gillian to put his money in an envelope with the $900, which he did. The unknown man than took the envelope and told Martin to call at another address ten minutes later, it is 'calmed. When Martin called at the specified place, the unknown man failed to show up, it is said.
Martin identified the two men when they were being arraigned on another charge.
After they were discharged they were rearrested on the complaint made by Martin.
WOMEN FIGHT IN BUS OVER CHILD
For attempting to take away a small child-from the arm of Mrs. Vergie Smith. 1967 Seventh avenue, while she was a passenger on a northbound bus on St. Nicholas avenue. Wednesday afternoon, Alice Carter, 19, 203 West 137th street, was fined, $10 when she was arraigned before Magistrate McQuade in the Heights Court Thursday morning.
Passengers on the bus were thrown into a panic when the young woman attacked the older woman. The screams and cries of other women passengers attracted the attention of Patrolman John P. Costello, of the Wadsworth avenue police station, who rushed to the scene and separated the two women. After learning that the child had been placed in Mrs. Smith's care by one of her sons, the officer arrested the Carter woman on a charge of disorderly conduct.
Medical Student Jailed for Non-Support
For failure to provide for his wife, Frank Sutherland, 151 W. 145th street, was brought before Magistrate Marsh in the Court of Domestic Relations by Probation Officer Samuel A. Gibbs, and ordered to give a bond of $520 or stand committed to the City Prison for six months.
The complaint was made by his wife, Edna, a comely young woman of 22 years. Mrs. Sutherland told the Court that she came to the city about a year ago from Jacksonville, Fla., and made her home with her sister; that Mr. Sutherland, a Britisher, married her in May of this year; and that he has never made a home for her, and has refused to give her any support.
Mr. Sutherland, who says he is a medical student, told the Court that he thought that as long as one could find no work, the Court could do nothing. He now has work on Welfare岛.
Pleads for Clemency for Accused Girl
Because of the plea for clemency by Joseph Ward, former vaudeville artist and proprietor of the Alamo Cabaret, 12th street and Eighth avenue, Consalo Smith, 19, 204 West 138th street, was released on a charge of disorderly conduct when she was arraigned before Magistrate Barrett in the Morrisania Court Saturday morning.
The complaint was made by Ward's wife, who had employed the girl Friday to do some house-cleaning. An argument between Mrs. Ward and the girl was brought about by the girl's refusal to do some troning, it was claimed. The girl struck Mrs. Ward against the head and body when she turned her back, it was alleged.
When Ward told the judge that he had no desire to have the girl prosecuted, the magistrate suspended his sentence.

Minister Aids in Reunion of Couple
The Rev. W. W. Brown, pastor of the Metropolitan Baptist Church, 128th street and Seventh avenue, not only attempted to save souls last Sunday morning, but also to find a man's former wife. He was successful. The minister read a letter written by George Sylvester Mason. Baltimore public school music teacher, to his congregation, which inquired of the whereabouts of Mrs. Mary Wood Mason, who divorced Mason 15 years ago. A friend of Mrs. Mason, who was in the audience at the time, informed her of the letter. The couple were remarried Saturday at St. Mark's-on-the-Bouwerle. Mr. and Mrs. Mason parted in 1910 and never saw each other again until their reunion.
Free-for-All Fight Ends Poker Game
Frank Middleton Won at Game, But Lost Out in Fight
George Wheeler. 2165 Fifth avenue, was held in $500 ball, charged with slashing Frank Middleton. 27 West 131st street, and taking his winnings away from him, when he was arraigned before Magistrate Sillerman in the Washington Heights Court Monday morning. It is alleged that Wheeler and Middleton were in a gambling house at 140 West 133d street last Tuesday night playing poker. When the game was over, there was a free-for-all night. Everybody had a knife and each one became engaged in a quarrel, it is charged. When Middleton and Wheeler began to argue over the winnings, Wheeler pulled out his knife and started slashing at his opponent. It is claimed.
Although Middleton was suffering from the wound, he limped to his home. Fatrolman William Hunter of the 135th street station, who arrested the alleged assailant, was called to the Middleton residence by the complainant's sister. The defendant was at the bedside of his victim when he was arrested. Middleton was removed to Harlem Hospital, where he was treated.

ATLANTIC CITY, N. J., July—The third annual meeting of the National Colored Republican Conference was held July 3 in the Jethre Memorial Presbyterian Church of Atlantic City. The session was called to order by the President, Mrs. Daisy Lampkins, of Pittsburgh, Pa. Rev. Silas W. Bristow offered prayer after which the President, Mrs. Lampkins, made her opening address in which she called attention to the
death of the founder and president of the Conference, Dr. George E. Cannon.
The Recording Secretary, James E. Keford of Waterbury, Conn. presented his annual report in which he told of the activities of the Conference since the last meeting, of the condition of the finances and the action of the Committee meeting held in Newark, N. J., in the month of May.
Dr. W. A. Byrd, of Jersey City, N. J., Chairman of the Steering
Committee, presented his report saying that through efforts of the Steering Committee the Republican National Committee had selected Hon. Clarence Matthews to head up the Colored Bureau in the last Presidential campaign and that the Committee had had several conferences with President Collidge on the subject of equal patronage for colored members of the National Discrimination and segregation. The following resolutions presented by the Steering Committee were adopted:
"Your committee feels that our great task for this year is to get Congress sympathetic with our aims. What are these aims? (a) Restoration of the ballot. This is difficult because so many who are deprived do not realize the value of the ballot, hence are unconcerned about it. The fact remains that because of this "Rape of the Negro Franchise" by the South, a ballot cast by a white voter South is equal to ten votes cast by whites elsewhere in the country. Our fathers in forming the Constitution recognized this probable evil, and made it mandatory upon Congress to penalize by reducing the representation from such states both in the Electoral College and in the House of Representatives. We should ask for the application of the Constitutional safeguard to balance the franchise.
Therefore "We recommend that this conference approve of reduction of Southern representation, and instruct its Committee to fight for it before the present Congress. It is our opinion that the moment that this is done, that moment the South will restore the ballot to all Since the members of Congress are chosen under Federal supervision, we also recommend that this conference instruct its committee to take up the enforcement of this statute with Attorney General Sargent and secure his active support in this matter.
"We question if one third of the members of Congress from what is called the solid South" are fairly not only elected, but one great evil standing in the way of an honest and pure franchise in the South is the mob spirit. We recommend that conference appeal to the present Congress to pass an anti-mob law so as to safeguard liberty and life in this nation.
We recommend that the Steering Committee be empowered to get in touch with Chairman Butler of the National Republican Committee and with the Chairman of the Congressional Committee and ask that a colored man be put in charge of a bureau for the purpose of assisting in the election of Congressmen in the same manner as Mr. Clarence Matthews and associates in the National Campaign. The President appointed the following Committees:
On Nominations—James E. Keford, Mrs. M. E. Burrell, Rev. H. B. Taylor, Judge W. R. Page, and Mrs. M. E. Graves.
Mrs. George S. Williams, National Committeewoman from Georgia, was introduced and made a short address.

CHAPTER I
Of the Founding of the Pan-African Movement. The first Pan-African Conference was held on the 23rd, 24th and 25th of July, 1900, at Westminster Town Hall, Westminster, S.W. London, Eng., under the direction of the Association. According to the report of Pan-African Conference, which is now before me:
"The idea was conceived early in the year 1897 that such a conference would be of immense benefit to the question of treatment of the natives, which was then agitating the mind of Great Britain in consequence of the Matabele and Bechuanaland Wars, the compound system in vogue in the mining district of South Africa, the existence of actual slavery in Pemba and Zambar, the uprising of natives in the hinterland of Sierra Leone, and the distress of the inhabitants of the West Indies, consequent upon the war crisis and the hurricane灾情. The British institution for the first time in England was called to the existence of the aforementioned condition in South Africa principally by Mrs. A. V. Kinnock, a native lady, and Miss Colenao, and the work thus begun was continued by the Hon. Secretary, Mr. H. S. Williams. In the year 1898 he visited Birmingham, Manchester, Liverpool, Edinburgh, Stirling, Daude, Glasgow, Belfast, Dublin, and numerous places in the neighborhood of London, with the result that a council of several representative members of the race present in London was held, and an association was formed with the objects: to encourage a feeling of unity; to facilitate friendly intercourse among Africans in general; to promote and protect the interests of the slaves, stimulating African descent, socially in British Colonies and other places, especially in Africa, by circulating accurate information on all subjects affecting their rights and privileges as subjects of the British Empire and by direct appeals to imperial and local governments.
"The spirit of the above objects was fully carried out by appeals and memorials being sent to Her Majesty's Secretary of State for the Colonies, and the German Emperor."
The officers of the old Pan-African Association were: The Right Rev. Bishop Alexander Walter, M.A., D.D., President; Rev. Henry B. Brown, Vice President; Dr. R. J. Colenso, M.A., General Treasurer; M. Benito Sylvain, General Delegate for Arica; H. Sylvester Williams, Esq. General Secretary. The Executive Committee consisted of: Hon. Henry F. Downing, ex-U. S. A. Consel, Laonda, S. Coleridge Taylor, Esq., A.R.C.M.; F. J. Loudlin, Esq., J. R. Archer, Esq.; Mrs. Jane Cobden-Unswin, Mrs. Anna J. Cooper, M.A.
At a meeting held at 139 Palace Chambers, London, on November 19, 1893, a circular was sent broadcast to leading Negroes calling them to attend a Pan-African Conference, "in order to take steps to influence public opinion on existing proceedings and conditions affecting the welfare of the race, the various parts of the world, South Africa, West Africa, West Indies and United States of America." The Conference was held at the date stated above and
"the conference merged the old association into the Pan-African, which has been effectively organized with constitution, laws and by laws, also have established permanent headquarters in London at Room 411, 61-41 Chancery Lane, with a Bureau from which it hopes to disseminate facts and statistics relating to the circumstances and conditions of members of the African race wherever found." Conferences were to be held every four years. The officers nominated and elected at the conference were:
U. S. B. — Vice-President, W. B. Du Bois, M. A.; Secretary, T. J. Calloway, Eg.
HAYTY — Vice-President, M. A. Pusanin Secretary, Right Honorary DEHRMA — Vice-President, M. Bengue Spyral (Abbe-M. Camp be the Emperor Messalil of Abbreyale); Secretary.
A. K. Ravenscroft, M. C.
Hon. F. R. E. Johnson; Secretary, S. F. D. Penns, Esq.
SOUTH AFRICA — Natal—Vice-President, Edwin Knlöck, Esq.
W. AFRICA — Sierra Leone — Vice-President, J. A. Williams, Esq. JP.; Secretary, M. Lewis, Esq. Labos — Vice President, J. Oyonba Payne; Secretary, N. W. Holm.
GOLD COAST — (Not represented).
BRITISH WEST INDIES — Jamalia—Vice-President, Hon. H. R. Cargill. Trinidad — (Not represented).
Orange, Orange, River Colony and Transvaal were not represented. Countries not represented were to have officers selected later.
CHAPTER II
Of the Recurrection of the Pan-African Movement in Later Years. In the Crisis for January, 1919, the first gun was fired to build up in the minds of the public the myth that Du Bois was responsible for fostering the idea of a Pan-African Movement and organising the first meeting. We are told in that issue that, "The first step toward ascertaining the desires, aspirations and grievances of these people should be the calling together of a Pan-African Congress to meet in Paris during the sessions of the Peace Conference. And again, in the same under: The N. A. A. C. P. has under the plans for a Pan-African Congress to be held in Paris this winter." On December 1, 1918, Dr. Du Bois sailed on the Crisis "to summon the Pan-African Congress." We learn further from the same number of the Crisis that a meeting is to be held at Carriegle Hall which "will institute the Pan-African Movement in the United States."
In the February, 1919, number of the Crisis, in an article entitled: "Africa and the World Democracy," we learn that the above meeting was held on January 6, 1919, under the auspices of the N.A. A. C.P. with John R. Shillady then the Secretary, presiding. All the comment in the Crisis is calculated to give the reader the impression that the idea of a Pan-African movement is the brain child of W. E. B. Du Bois. If he claims it as such, then it is a bastard, because H. Sylvester Williams was really the man who founded the Pan-African movement and called the first conference. What Du Bois has done is to obey the fact that such an organisation ever existed; change the name from Pan-African Association to Pan-African Congress, and garner the glory.
The first meeting of the Pan-African Congress was held in February, 1919, at Paris; the second, with three conventions in 1921, at London, Brussels and Paris; the third in 1923 in London and Lisbon. in the April, 1919, number of the Crisis, the eminent editor is spoken of as "founder and Secretary of the first Pan-African Congress. There is nothing any-where in the Crisis to lead the reader to believe that Bois is not the originator of the idea. It is obvious that there is not much distinction in filching the person of someone else and palming it on under the name of an unsuspecting world.
It is well to note that Mr. H. Sylvester Williams lectured on the Pan-African movement in the United States and the West Indies about the year 1901. So the statement in the Crisis about instituting the Pan-African movement in the United States is rather tardy to say the least. Lastly, why has the good editor abstained from mentioning the pioneer organization of which he was representative in America? Would that have cried his chances of making a place for himself with the anacolic Pan-African Congress?
CHAPTER IIII
Of the Coming of 1820 and What
Happened Then.
Came the year 1920—as years are wont to do—and there was a great excitement within the sacred confines of 70 Fifth Avenue. Hearts were gay and litting song and laughter resounded through carpeted office, where sleek officials reclined in avivel chairs surrounded by attentive secretaries and stenographers. And the cause of this happiness and ruinings? The sixth award of the Springg Medal—awarded annually for the highest achievement of an American Negro—gave to the Krieg of Kings, William K. P. barb, noted here.
grievances," the military phraseology of which is not difficult to understand when it is remembered that Darkwater was then struggling in hat-in-hand, for a captaincy in the Jass (National) Army. According to a leaflet on the subject issued by A. C. F. C., the medal was "Presented to Mr. C. F. C. in the Campus of Atlanta University," and "Awarded for the founding and calling together of the Pan-African Convoy."
Obviously, the medal should have been "awarded for the resurrection of the Pan-African Association, changing the name and calling another meeting." For it is not worthy that the good Dr. Du Bois was a delegate to the Pan-African Conference (hence not conceivably important of it), was one of the signers of the "general appeal to the nations of Africa" that was elected Vice-President for the U. S. A. In fact, the learned leader was so interested in the success of his first effort to unite the thinking Negroes of the world that he contributed the tremendous sum of ten shillings toward the expenses of the Conference.
CHAPTER IV
Of Divers Thoughts, Queries and Conclusions on the Forgoing. So much for the question relative to the credit for founding and calling of the first conference or congress. It is quite clear that to the Right Rev. Dr. W. E. B. Du Bots, Biabop of the Aramerican Literati, the credit does not belong. And of what value was this resurrected Pan-African movement for which Du Bots was tendered the Spingarn Medal? It does it compare to the Socialist, Comrade or archist Internationales in regard to democratic representation of different groups of Negroes? Not at all. It is merely a group of hand-picked delegates selected and invited by Dr. Du Bots; mostly job holders under imperialist governments tourists, white liberals and such fry. The last "Congress" was a worst frost than the "first" one in 1919, "delegates" being such representative Africans as Ramsay MacDonald, H. G. Wells and F. D. Morel, etc., Du Bots himself representing the entire Negro population, the western hemisphere. This so-called organisation has had no influence on the Negroes anywhere and the Negro masses know nothing of it. Why not give the Spingarn Medal to Garvey, also. His "international" organisation was just as international as that of Dr. Du Bots, and probably so.
It was no "achievement" to call together a group of white and black liberals already cooling their heels on the outskirts of the Peace Conference. It would have been an enormous organization built up an effective organization it would have attracted the attention of the entire world.
Now, lastly, why hasn't the Spingarn Medal gone to Robert "Singlestick" Abbot or Robert "Rusty" Moton? Surely, the work Abbot has done through his Chicago Defender to persuade the dark brethren to get out of the South and come North is worthy of a medal. And the masterly achievement of "Major" Moton in hounding millions of dollars out of the white American plutocracy merits the attention of the Committee on Awards. Must such men as these become officials of N. A. A. C. P. before being awarded the coveted medal? Must other worthy Aframical achievers wait until the medal awards have gone the rounds of the immaculately dressed staff of canvasback duck eaters? According to the conditions of the award, "it is intended primarily that the medal shall be for the masterly achievement in the preceding year, but if no achievement in any one sense seems to merit it, the Committee may award it for work achieved in preceding year." Why hasn't Hand received it? Or Marcus Gravy (for his production of laughter?) Or Harry Pace? Or S. W. Rutherford? Or Florence Mills? Or C. C. Spanking? Or C. F. Richardson (brain editor of the Houston Informer—a thinker in the side of Texas crackers?) Or Paul Robeson, Or Harry Wills (for beating Firpo)? What about De Hart Hubbard? Well, why not any of the above. Doesn't the paragraph on conditions tell us that "the choice is not limited to any one field, whether intellectual, spiritual, physical, scientific, artistic, commercial, educational, or other endeavor?" Alright now! If Du Bols could get it for his Pan-African Congress, why can't Kelly Miller get it for his defaced Sanhedrin? Or Cyril Briggs for his deceased African Blood Brotherhood (in which there were no Africans?) Come to think of it, they all have (or had) about the same membership and influence on the trend of events.
OVERCOME BY SMOKE
(Preston News Service.)
CINCINNATI, Ohio, July 12—
George Darnell, aged 23, and Geo.
Burpe, aged 54, were found unconscious in their home into Wednesday afternoon by George Tebull. The two men were overcooked, it is thought, during the night by smells and, gas fumes from burning rubbish.
"Governor Williams again dissolved the St. Crox, Virgin Islands, Colonial Council, upon the ground that they refused to recognize the credentials of two of his appointees," is the substance of a callogram received to-day by the American Civil Liberties Union. The Council refused to seize E. Stakeman, a lawyer and judge of the St. Crox Police Court, and one Armstrong, two of the Governor's appointees. The Council issued its refusal upon an act of Congress passed in July, 1921, which states that only citizens of United States or of the Virgin Islands shall be eligible as Council members.
The dissolution of the Council by the Governor places the governmental machinery of the islands in a state of chaos.
"Stakemen failed to acquire citizenship in either the United States or the Virgin Islands, when he announced his allegiance to Denmark, in order to acquire status for his appointment to the Colonial Council," is the unofficial opinion obtained by the American Civil Liberties Union from Government authorities. An official government ruling, defining the status of Stakeman and other individuals being American Civil Liberties Union and other organizations interposed in the welfare of the Virgin Islands.

CADORE'S CURVES PROVE PUZZLING TO CUBANS; WARHOP HIT HARD
Cadore proved a puzzle to the Cuban Stars in the first game of a doubleheader with the Bushwicks at Dexter Park Sunday afternoon, but Jack Warhop was greeted with vicious and effective swinging in the nightcap, the home talent dividing honors with the visitors from Cuba. The ex-Robin mound artist's benders broke to perfection and he recorded a shutout triumph, while his teammates batted Juanelo to the extent of four runs. The Cubans returned the compliment in the final, Dihigo handing the "Kandy Kids" a row of goose-eggs, while "Indian Jack" was nicked for seven counters.
FOUR
The Cubans were limited to six safe blows in the opener, one of the prettiest ball games of the season at Dexter Park, and at no time threatened the mastery of Cadore. The Bushwicks made excellent use of the stick in the fifth and seventh frames, in each of which they tailed twice. Spudding singled to start the fifth and was forced by Weiss. Steen came through with a double that sent Weiss home with the first Bushwick rally. McVoy singled scoring Steen. In the seventh, Weiss beat out a hunt. On successive singles by McVoy and Miller, Weiss rode home and McVoy registered when Dean raided safely to right. Two pinch hitters inserted into the pastime by the Cubans in the ninth failed to save them from a whitewashing.
Handicapped by errors of omission as well as commission, Warhop was in trouble practically from the start in the final contest. A hit batman, a walk and a single-filled the hankerock, with none down in the fourth but, thanks to a one-handed catch of a line drive by Joe Weins for the third out, as well as knocking down of a terrific wallop over the first-base line by McVoy, the Cubans were held to a lone tally. In the following frame, however, the Cubans slammed Warhop's offerings freely and were aided, by poor fielding, in gathering three runs. They added three more in the sixth and were checked from further onslaughts thereafter, the only gesture being a two-base blow by Baro in the eighth.
The Bushwicks threatened in the sixth. Warhop singled and was advanced to third on a long rap by Dean. Lal lifted a high one to center and a return throw to the iliomond was made with such dispatch that Warhop was forced to remain at the far corner. He was left stranded there when Peploisk forced Dean for the third out. Dithig had matters well in hand at other times and the Bushwicks could not turn their eight safeties into any advantageous use.
Next Sunday afternoon the Bushwicks will encounter the Royal Giants and the following Sunday will clash with the Hilldale Club.
BOXING, BASEBALL, TENNIS, CRICKET, ETC. New Jersey Tennis Players for Tournament
It may be a little early for us to try to figure out the chances of our New York players in the national championships, to be held this year at Bordentown, N. J., the week of August 24, but if by doing so we can add anything to our chances our efforts will not be in vain.
Last year we went down to Baltimore with visions of capturing the national men's singles and doubles championships for New York, but failed in our objective. Former National Champion Edgar G. Brown was out of competition in the events, due to his suspension, which left only Talley Holmes, Ted Thompson and Allan Woolridge, all of Washington, D. C. along with Saitch, as the top notchers for the national singles crown. Saitch had shown that he was capable of taking care of the Washington trio, defeating Ted Thompson in straight sets in the semi-finals of the Philadelphia championships, and the next day going through Talley Holmes in the finals of that event by as wonderful an exhibition of tennis as we were privileged to see among our people. Thus with Brown, the only other player we feel capable of defeating Saitch, out of the running, we felt sure that New York would get her first national singles championship, but it was not to be. National Champion Talley Holmes played wonderful tennis against Ted Thompson to win the crown, and deserved the high honor and prize that go with the achievement. But we are not taking any credit away from him, or making any alibi for our New York entry. E. Saitch, when we say that had Saitch not injured himself in one of his earlier matches, the finals results might have been different. This year at Bordentown, Brown will be encountered, but Saitch has shown that he can give as good as he can take and might be depended upon to give the best in him.
Harry Jackson, of Nation's Capital, Closely Pressed by Shippen, Another District of Columbia Player
George Smith and Edgar Gomes, ninth and eleventh national ranking players, respectively, should give lots of trouble to some of the out-of-town players, and will no doubt be found higher up in the ranking for 1925.
Harry Jackson, of Washington, D. C., by his consistent playing, led a field of 30 golfers in the First International Golf Championship held at the Shady Rest Country Club, of Westfield, N. J. His card of 149 for 36 holes on July 4, followed by another of 150 on July 5, shows how consistent this stellar player from the capital city played.
In the men's doubles events, our best entry of Saitch and Smith, competing for their first time for the national doubles honors, finished in the runner-up position. With an added year of playing together, the New York team should annex the men's doubles crown this year. The teams of Holmes and Thompson of Washington, McGriff and Downing of Virginia, and Rhetha and Walker of Baltimore, known ranking doubles combinations, in our opinion, do not measure up to the New York pair, and even should Edgar Brown secure a good partner and enter the doubles event, the fact that they will not have had a long enough time to round out a good doubles combination between them should eliminate them from serious consideration.
He was closely pressed by the veteran golfer, Shippen, also of Washington, D. C. These two leaders in the first day's play were paired on July 5 and thrilled the large appreciative gallery by their wonderful shots, but Shippen was unable to overcome his younger opponent's three-stroke lead of the day before and finished second with a total of 802. Brice, of Harby, Pa., scored a 153 for the first 36 holes, but could not improve his position on the second 36, finishing third with a total of 213. Braxton, of Darby, Pa., couldn't seem to get started on July 4, but after getting all of the bad golf out of his system came back July 5 and showed the enthusiastic gallery the best golf of the day, scoring a 73 and 75, thereby winning the special cup for the lowest score of the day.
With the ladies, our New York ladies' champion, Mrs. Lottie Wade, does not seem to take any interest in tennis any more, and it is problematical as to whether she will be seen fighting for the honor for old New York, but we feel that the Big City will be ably represented by Mrs. Conick, Mrs. Madison and Mrs. Leonard, not to mention one or two of the younger players, who have shown much improvement. Mrs. Conick threw a scare into Miss Channells, the national ladies' champion, last year when, in the semi-finals, it took the champ overtime sets to be returned victor at 7-5, 8-6. This year Mrs. Conick is playing much better than last year and is sure to give the champion more trouble should they meet. If the New York ladies show the same form in the nationals as they have shown thus far this year, New York should not suffer from the probable absence of Mrs. Wade, the state champion. Besides the New York entry, Miss Channells will have good and hard competition from the Ballard sisters of Philadelphia, the Hines sisters of North Carolina, Miss Nicholson of Baltimore, and Miss Radcliffe of Chicago.
The tournament in itself was a wonderful success, having the leading representative golfers from the District of Columbia, Pennsylvania, New Jersey, New York, Connecticut and Long Island entered. The Fox films had an operator out to the tournament taking pictures of the clubhouse, grounds, gallery, players in action and presentation of the case by Attorney Oliver Randolph, of Newark, N. J. These pictures will be shown in the theatres during the coming week.
We had no outstanding or ranking combinations in the ladies' doubles event last year. Mrs. Leonard of N. Y. City, paired with Miss Channells of Chicago, won the national ladies' doubles crown, and might be seen defending their title this year. We should like to see an all-New York team, however, and will suggest Mrs. Conick and Mrs. Madison. We wonder if the women can get together for the sake of little old New York!
The new rule limiting entries to competition in only two events will no doubt break up the mixed doubles team of Mrs. Leonard and George Smith, who rank number three in the national mixed doubles rating, and who this year might have placed higher. Miss Nicholson and Dr. Rhetta, the national mixed doubles champions, will be lucky to hold their titles, should the same combinations of Channells and Hudlin of Chicago and Leonard and Smith of New York have a chance to play against them. The Baltimore entry are the champions alright, but we feel that the latter combinations are both capable of defeating the champs, if they are brought together this year.
Scores of first ten lowest: Harry Jackson, 229; Shippen, 202; Chas. E. Brice, 313; L. Martin, 214; Wallace Branton, 319; Robert Lee, 322; Ira Harrington, 322; R.

Lose to Fort Hamilton
Milton's double in the ninth inning gave the Fort Hamilton nine a 6 to 5 triumph over the 45th infantry tormentors of San Juan, Porte Rice, at Fort Hamilton Saturday afternoon.
JAMES AND AL MAMAUX TWIRL JAMAICA TO DOUBLE VICTORY OVER RED CAPS
Twice at Jamaica Oval Sunday the Penn Red Caps found the Jamaica Cardinals a hard club to beat, and as a result the colored players lost both ends of a doubleheader by scores of 7 to 4 and 2 to 1. Both contests were fast ball games, replete with many sparkling fielding jewels. Bill James twirled his mates to the first victory, and Al Mamaux had the best of Wiley in an interesting pitching duel.
NEW YORK: AMSTERDAM NEWS; WEDNESDAY; JULY 18, 1920
A Big Event Already Casting Its Shadows O'er the Firmament of Sport
WHEREIN Francis Cogitates on Possibilities of National Tennis Champions
BY ARTHUR E. FRANCIS
Wiley, although he lost, pitched one of the best ball games that has been seen at Jamaica. He allowed four hits and had it not for a bit of wildness in the third inning, when he hit the first two batters to face him. It may have developed that the Cardinals would have finished at the short end of a 1 to 0 score. Al Mamaux was not far from Wiley in effectiveness. He struck out seven Red Cap batters and was the victim of a touch break in the first inning, which allowed a run to cross the plate.
Harry Mackin, who was switched over to short after Jimmy Irving was forced to retire at the start of the second game, was a revelation. The popular Harry never played better ball and on two occasions he pulled Mamaux from tough positions by his flashy fielding. The veteran Tommy Clarke broke into the limelight and showed that age has not yet slowed him up.
The Red Caps hit James freely in the opening contest, but the blood pitcher kept the blow scattered and he won rather handily. There were plenty of home runs in this contest. Krumenacher contributed two of these four-base clouts. Big Boy Thomas caught one of James' offerings and sent it over right field fence with one man on the bags in the third inning. In the second and sixth there was a man on the bases when Pete Krumenacher cleared the fence. The big first baseman also contributed fielding gem in the third inning he made a leap after a throw of Irving's and touched the runner on the base line for an out.

Lincoln Giants Divide Doubleheader—Lost 1st to Westinghouse; Win 2d
The losing streak of the Lincoln Giants was broken Sunday, July 12, by a victory over the Philadelphia Professionals at the Protectory Oval. In the opening game the Lincoln had been nosed out, 10-9, by the Westinghouse team, but in the second contest they took an early lead which they were able to maintain throughout the game. Heavy batting was the feature of both games, with Scales and Mason taking the batting honors for the home team. Scales got seven hits in two games, including two home runs, while Mason was close behind with five hits.
Harper and Taylor as relief pitchers—Harper taking the place of Williams in the first game and Taylor relieving Johnson in the second—were able to stop the scoring of the opposing teams, but the Lincoln are still in need of good pitchers. Any local player who thinks he can make the team will be given a tryout by reporting to Mr. Keenan at the grounds or writing him at his home, 505 West 135th street.
There is no doubt that this is a splendid opportunity for aspiring athletes, for in a few years New York will again be on top in baseball, as she is in every other kind of sport.

hilldale Takes Second Straight Game From Brooklyn Royal Giants
PHILADELPHIA, July 11. Hilliard made it two straight from the Brooklyn Royal Giants when the Bayviles hit Cannonball Dick Reding at opportune times and salted away another Eastern League victory, score 6 to 4. By winning to-day's encounter the Darby Daisies run their strick of consecutive wins in league games to an even doten and are now virtually trampling on the beels of the Harrisburg Giants for the top rung of the league standing. Nip Winters again started against the Flasbush foe and was forced to seek under a barrage of gas blows, but even with his retirement Winters is credited with another win to his fast-growing string. Babe Currie again stepped into the breach as a relief hurler and spiked the oneyes' gun.
The Hilldale team got off to a lead in the first inning, when Carr singled to right and went all the way to third when Watson fumbled the ball. Mackey singled and Carr crossed the plate. The lead was increased to four in the third. Briggs beat out a slow roller; Stevens sacrificed and, after Carr fanned, Mackey's single, Judy Johnson's triple and Thomas' single counted three runs. Johnson Hill was the real T. N. T for the Royal outfit; the hot corner led drove in two of the Giants' four tallies and scored a third one himself. His single in the fourth scored Watson with the first Brooklyn tally and in the sixth he rocked a home run into the center-field bleachers, with Charlie Smith perched on first base. As in the former contest, Hill's homer tapped Nip Winters to fade from the scene and Rube Currie was pushed to the peak.

Dempsey Should Defend Title or Retire, Says Senator Walker.
"Jack Dempsey should defend his heavyweight championship or retire." Senator James J. Walker, sponsor of the New York boxing law and one of the Democratic leaders, said this week. "It's entirely a matter of whether Dempsey wants to fight again." Walker said "There never has been any political influence used to interfere with a match between Dempsey and Harry Wills, and if the time comes that the color line is drawn, the boxing bill should be bolished."

Vaccarelli, his injured arm completely on the mend, starts a new campaign for title honors when he stacks up against the sturdy West Side. Red Cap Wilson, in the final inn. Rosen will have for an opponent Joe Mandell, the rugged Paul-Philipian, while Grosso, who will travel the ten-round route for the first time, is paired with Artur Smith, the Negro heavyweight from Harlem.

Besides the star events there will be a six-rounder between Harry Scott, the Atlantic City idol, and Johnny Felucci of the east side, with Al Butterfield of Harlem booing the mark against Al Vitola of the Bronx in the opening tour.
Holland Hit Hard,
Hilldale Wins From
Brooklyn Royal Giants
PHILADELPHIA. July 9.—Nip Winters up again on victory for the fast-going Hilldale Club, bumping the Royal Giants 10 to 6. But not until the big left-hander had been subjected to a severe lacing and forced to retire in favor of Currie in the fifth inning did the cordict swing toward the Hilldale team and Winters. The Royals put up the most stabborn kind of resistance and at the half-way mark of the fifth inning were leading by a 6 to 3 victory. Brooks and Johnson still supplied the bulk of the tent punch exhibited by the Flint-bush team. On two occasions Brooks landed on Winters' shoots for drives that were good for the circuit. Johnson Hill also slapped out a home run with two men on the path.
Brooklyn first home run game in the fourth inning with no one on the bases. The drive was the longest of the game and cleared the deep center-field fence, with plenty to spare. The center fielders second clout came in the fifth inning, directly behind Hill's homer; both drives went into the center field. The fifth frame was even more productive for the home team and netted the Boldenidge seves markers. Rector replaced Holland on the mound in this inning and blanked the Daisies in the remaining rounds.
The Sportive Spotlight
Sporting scribes of New York shock the promoters got wet and knocked Jimmy Slattery out for the time being. Many have would be rated as "Naturals" by "Big City." To date all have oval "Naturals" that could be made—Harry Greb vs. Tiger Flower.
It is a matter of record that has met and defeated every one division at the present time. Tommy Robson and Billy Britton knockouts ever credited against Dileweight, as was proven in the Flowers and Jock Malone-Flow 158 pounds.
Ever since that famous tour last August between Flowers and defeated Greb the champion that he would never again to the press after this engagement it for having taught him many never knew previously.
Flowers has been fighting for the past two years—meetied lectured middleweight, light-heavy have been selected. He has been during this period. Jack Delhey heavyweight, who also knocked trick in two furious fights.
No fighter has ever won a in a match that went the entire and no sport scribe has ever won of a match in which he participated.
Manager Walk Miller visit Boxing commission on July 6 at $2,500 and a request that Flowers the middleweight title. Miller six months and, in the event within this period, that he could also agreed that Flowers should the commission so desire.
Slattery, Berlenbach and down overtures from promoter Who is left? You name one.
Sporting scribes of New York have freely commented on the shock the promoters got when Dave Shade upset the dope and knocked Jimmy Slattery out of the picture for big shots for the time being. Many have suggested other matches that would be rated as "Naturals" by the followers of boxing in the "Big City." To date all have overlooked one of the most logical "Naturals" that could be made in the middleweight division—Harry Greb vs. Tiger Flowers, 15 rounds for the title.
It is a matter of record that the sensational colored fighter has met and defeated every outstanding middleweight in that division at the present time. He knocked out Johnny Wilson, Tommy Robson and Billy Britton during this year for the only knockouts ever credited against them. He is a legitimate middleweight, as was proven in the official weights of the Wilson-Flowers and Jock Malone-Flower matches, when he scaled 158 pounds.
Ever since that famous tour and no-decision match at Freemont last August between Flowers and Greb in which Flowers handily defeated Greb the champion has made no secret of the fact that he would never again meet Flowers. In a statement to the press after this engagement Greb gave the "Tiger" credit for having taught him many things about boxing that he never knew previously.
Flowers has been fighting on an average of once a week for the past two years—meeting anyone that promoters selected middleweights, light-heavyweights and heavyweights have been selected. He has been defeated by only one man during this period. Jack Delaney, the hard-hitting light-heavyweight, who also knocked out Berlenbach, turned the trick in two furious fights.
No fighter has ever won a referee's decision over Flowers in a match that went the entire scheduled number of rounds and no sport scribe has ever written an adverse fight account of a match in which he participated as one of the principals.
Manager Walk Miller visited the offices of the New York Boxing Commission on July 6 and carried a certified check for $2,500 and a request that Flowers be given the next chance at the middleweight title. Miller was advised that he must wait six months and, in the event Greb failed to defend his title within this period, that he could then file his challenge. Miller also agreed that Flowers should meet Dave Shade first should the commission so desire.
Slattery, Berlebach and Shade have repeatedly turned down overtures from promoters for a Flowers engagement. Who is left? You name one.

Norris' All-Star Eleven Is Helpless Before Combined Aggregation of New York Players
At New York Oval last Sunday, the Flower of New York, a stellar seven picked to uphold the prestige of colored cricket, lived up to their advance notices in magnificent style, thoroughly touncing Capt. Norris' all-star eleven, sending them in twice at but. The white team was repulsed by 9 wickets and 176 runs, the total being 252 for 1. Ten bowlers were used, but in the form Simpson and Simons displayed it is difficult to say how many more could have been utilized—252 for 1, as far as our memory recalls, is a record for New York never before renched and doubtless, will stand for some time.
The fielding of both sides was cirtight, exceptional plays being made by E. Holder and A. Lewis. The team's summary follows:
New York Pick (Capt. Moore)—E. J. Solos, 18, L. B. W., Cabral b. H. Simons, 68, not out. A. Simpson, 160, not out. Total, 252 for 1 (extras 6).
While Eleven (Capt. Norris)—E. 42, full, 26, bowled E. Holder; L. Cabral, 0, runout; B. Cortland, 0, C. Holder bowled A. Lewis; O. C. Holder bowled B. Lewis; C. C. A. Walton bowled Lewis; K. Kendall, 8, bowled by Holder. A. Joseph, 8, bowled by Moore; C. Boxill, 0, bowled by Holder; L. Wilson, 8, L. B. W., by Holder; J. Taylor, 12, C. Lewis, by Holder; N. Totterdell, 2, bowled by Walcutt; C. Norris, 6, not out. Total, 74; extras, 3. H. average—E. Holder, 4—24; A. Lewis, 2—20

Ozzie Dear, old Cleaners star,

have regained the old time form

enough to win. Orients being uni-

McGee of the Orients was a sur-

side. Fitting to all corners, donat-

Black Bill, Cuban dyweight, added another victory to his string of 110 last Saturday night when he outpointed Wee Willie Woods of Scotland in the main ten-round contest at the Commonwealth S. C. The meeting was the second between the pair. Bill having taken the first one by a fair-sized margin at the New Manhattan Casino this spring. Saturday night Bill removed all doubts as to who was the better man, outspeeding his rival from start to finish.
Woods kept plugging away at his elusive rival, doing the forcing in the early part of the fray, but being unable to land any real hard punches on the speeding Cuban. Bill cut loose with a two-fisted flurry when his rival pressed a hit too hard, and held the upper hand in practically every round. In the closing session Woods appeared to slow down, and the little colored lad was able to hit him almost at will. Black Bill weighed 111%, and Woods was two pounds lighter.
The semi-final event of the program, also listed over the ten-round distance, was a fast battle with Charlie Manly of New Bedford getting a draw with Joe Hall, of Buffalo. Hall, who recently gave Jack Bernstein a great fight, was surprised by the New Englander and the draw decision gave him all the hotter of the break.
Manty, making his first appearance at the local club, proved to be a first-class ringster, and although not as fast as Hall, made up this shortcoming with a vicious two-fisted attack. Manly weighed 183.1%, half a pound lighter than Hall.
The first ten of the night brought Cirilan Olano. Cuban entry in the lightweight tourney and knockout conquerer of Clonie Tait, into action against Andy Tucker of the Bronx, Olano winning the verdict. Tucker essayed to fight his man as Leoyas did in the finals of the foreign end of the tourney, but finished second best to the Cuban.
The action was interesting throughout, with Olano showing a
PANCHO VILLA DEAD

good two-fisted attack, and Tucker hammering for the body with a left hook. Tucker was warned in the first, ninth and tenth sessions for hitting low. Tucker weighed 136 pounds, and his conquerer was two pounds heavier.
In the six-round preliminary, Dominick Petrone, Harlem bantam-weight, made short work of Billy DeSalvo, of Newark, forcing his handlers to tos in the towel in token of defeat after 34 seconds of milling in the third round. Petrone slammed his rival with a left hook and crossed with a right to the head that floored him for the count of nine twice in the second stanza. In the third, DeSalvo took another trip to the resined rug for a toll of eight, and would have been stowed away for a longer count had not his seconds halted the fray. Petrone weighed 118, and DeSalvo was three pounds lighter.
The four-rounder between Joe Smith, of Brooklyn, and Johnny Reid, of Harlem, was nothing to get excited over, the local man winning the verdict after much pushing and pulling. Neither knew much about the sport, with Reid being just a shade more experienced than his rival. Smith weighted 172, and Reid was 165½ pounds.

Many weeks ago when the weather was of such everybody found it hard to keep cool, our good friend, "Bob" Douglas of the famous Renaissance Five, made a promise to stage shirt waist dances at the Renaissance Casino some Saturday nights, all because he had deep sympathy for patrons of the Saturday night dances in spite of their enjoyment under unfavorable conditions.
But the weather man has been unusually kind to "Bob" and his fellow-workers at the Renaissance, for splendid weather has been in evidence for the past three weeks and the throngs have turned out with a vim to enjoy the dances which are the talk of this section of the town.
All indications point to another bumper house at the old stand the coming Saturday and Messrs. Siblee, King, Douglas and Mervor will find themselves busy from early evening until the closing hour.

Pulling Curtain of the Past Aside and Going Back With Fond Memories "Down Memory Lane"
Glance at the Many Pictures Appearing in the Sport World Today and See If You Can Recall the Well-Known Faces Making History in the Days of Yore Performers Will Also Take Their Places in Coming Issues
Ira F. Lewis, brilliant, efficient, energetic and ambitious associate editor of the Pittsburgh Courier, is one of the best writers of sports among colored men in this day and time Lewis, from time to time, goes "Down Memory Lane" on beautiful word pictures, and so appealing is the phrase, whenever we have occasion to borrow it from him, comments come to us from all over the country.
To day we are going, "Down Memory Lane" in pictures, and the weeks to come will see many faces that will be remembered by hundreds in Harlem and all over the country. This is but a tribute to the many friends we have made in the sporting and theatrical world covering a period reaching back over fifteen years.
Some of these people have concluded their work and gone to rest in the "Great Beyond." Others have pulled up stakes for other parts while many remain with us and already Time is tracing their locks with grey. We want you to see them as they used to be in their hayday, and the more fact of gaming upon them once again is bound to recall those good old days.
Some of them the present generation will fail to recognize, but their glory lives after them and we are certain their history is known to even those who saw them not: on track and field, the basketball court and on the stage. When one can look back and recall pleasant memories life has not been lived in vain, and to the boys and girls of athletic and theatrical glory we again doff the old lid, reminding them that even Time can make us forget those days that meant so much in all our lives.

De Hart Hubbard to Appear At Ind. Exhibition Meet
(Preston News Service.)
INDIANAPOLIS, Ind., July 13.—With no little elation, the local lodge entertainment committee of the Knights of Pythias, Indiana juridiction, has announced the DeHart Hubbard, 60th century athletic marvel, to appear at their annual gala day field meet in this city on July 29.
Hubbard's acceptance will make July 29 and the event at the State Fair Grounds the outstanding feature of the four days' session of the grand lodge here. Holder of the world's record, of national records and intercollegiate records for track and jumping events, young Hubbard, who is star for the University of Michigan athletic crew, has been a headliner in all the sports pages of the country for the
1.
past few months since he set a mark for a bread bick which athletic experts say cannot be beaten unless it is by Hubbard himself. He has appeared in every big athletic event of the country in the past year among collegians, and to have him appear in the local event is considered no little honor and triumph for Hooverdorp in general and the Knights of Pythias, Indiana jurisdiction, in particular.
In addition to Hubbard, a number of high school athletes web have gained renown in inter-scholastic events will appear and try for the handsome trophies offered by the committee. As the National Association of Colored Musicians will be in session here at the same time, the local music promoters are joining with the grand lodge entertainment committee in planning for the reception of Mr. Hubbard and it is predicted that the thousands of visitors and delegates who will attend the meet and the attendant festivals will carry away a lasting impression of loosest hospitality and galley.

Negro Married Women
Swell Workers’ Ranks
WASHINGTON, D C.—In a sur
vey recently made by the Women’s
Burean of the U. . Department of
Labor, it was found that, of th
2,000,000 married women 2¢ work
in gainful cecupations, Negro wo
men comprise one-third, a mruct
larger proportion than the perceat
jagé of the Negro racial group {1
the totat population cf the country.
It was further found that in agrh
cultural orcupations the female Ne
fro workers actually outnumber
native-born white women, taking
the lend ft: all occepetions common
to agricultural life. When: it Is
considered that these women,
three-fifths of whom are between
25 and 44 years of age, are engaged
n their leisure time in caring fot
homes and children, it {s « remark
able fact that their inelusion in
work forces is from onethird to
threevifths of the tozal number of
married women at work in general
and celected occupations, a¢ the
case may be.

(PRESTON NEWS SERVICE)
Pullman porter. He is dead and white America calls him a hero. The Pullman Company has cited him for unusual and extraordinary heroism, as they say in the army. This man Daniels threw himself in the way of some scalding steam trying to keep a door closed, in order that the passengers might not get burned. There was a wreck on the road and the boiler gave way, throwing hot water and steam everywhere.
Daniels refused medical aid. He told the doctors to look after a little white girl. I wonder what - Fat. Harrison. Tom Heflin, the Imperial Wizard, all the Southern crackers and all the Northern copperheads — including those high up in the Pullman Company — will say to this? As Ben Tillman and all his liko up from Hell, what will they say?
Because, if Daniels—in the living flesh—had run true to America's estimate of him, he would have saved himself and attempted to rape this little girl as he caught her wandering amidst the wrecked train. For — says America — the Negro is a rapist, an inferior, unmoral, half-man. And Daniels was a Negro.
I can't grow enthusiastic over what the Pullman Company has done. It costs nothing to reward and praise a dead man. Ever since this thing happened I have been asking myself, "WHAT WOULD THE PULLMAN COMPANY HAVE DONE TO REWARD DANIELS IF HE HAD LIVED?"
He would have been no less a hero, no less self-sacrificing, no less devoted to duty. But I am of the opinion that the Pullman Company would have done similar to the Russian lady told of by William James. You remember, this lady sat in the theatre and wept at the misfortune of the hero, on the stage, while her own coachman froze to death on the outside. For he was only a coachman and Daniels was only a Negro.
And so, knowing white America as I do, I just can't lose my head whenever our native 100 per cent Nordic countrymen make these constantly recurring, dramatic,
SECTION TWO NEWS
BUDGET DIRECTOR BUCKLEY IN SPEECH
Urges Citizens' Welfare Council to See That Competent Physicians Apply for Position in Harlem Hospital.
"In union there is strength," Edward W. Buckley, director of budget and representing Mayor Hyan at the mass meeting of the Citizens' Welfare Council at Grace Congregational Church, said in a talk, in which he congratulated the people for securing medical representation in Harlem Hospital, Monday evening.
A resolution, protesting the Ku Klux Klan parade in Washington and demanding that colored policemen be relieved of the humiliation of accompanying the march, was passed and sent in the form of a night letter to President Coolidge. "The first time that I ever heard of the fight for colored doctors to be given a place in the Harlem Hospital was in May, when Mayor Hylan handed to me a letter from this Welfare Council." How the order of the "See that they get what they have asked for, if it is possible" was executed, was explained by the director of budget. "In the Sold of art and Literature, Negroes have achieved great distinction, and there is a reason why, they should not make some outstanding accomplishment at Harlem Hospital." he said.
An appeal was made by the mayor's representative to the citizens to see that only efficient men apply for positions at the hospital. The Harlem Hospital is merely a test, he said.
"There are a number of city hospitals, and it depends upon the colored doctor's efficient services there whether or not the other institutions will be opened to you. There should be no difference
brotherly and crass gestures in our direction. |
Why should I throw my hat in the air, when I stop and think and know and feel that Daniels alive today would be nothing more than a glorified "GEORGE," forever and ever, to the end of the Pullman cars?

Colonel Young Post, American Legion, Assisting in Drive
The drive for the National Endowment of Orphans of Sodisre and Disabled Soldiers is being conducted through the headquarters of the Col. Chas. Young Post, No. 898, American Legion.
The Col. Chas. Young Post realising, perhaps more than any other organization in this community, the great need and suffering among ex-service men, is adding the national body in its endeavor to alleviate this very serious condition.
It was pointed out that the average American citizen has forgotten the soldier, but the organizational functioning in the interest of the soldier are daily faced with the distressing increase of these wartime results. The public interest in the military cannot be too highly commanded. Any contribution, from one dollar, will be heartily accepted and appraised. Checks and money orders are made payable to William C. Anderson, treasurer, or Dr. M. V. Boutts, commander Col. Chas. Young Post, American Legion, 2276 Seventh avenue.

HOWARD UNIVERSITY FACULTY DISMISSALS UNJUSTIFIED
Orlanda C. Thornton Points
Out Alleged Inconsistencies of Pres. Durkee
Efficient teachers, independent thinkers, student sympathizers, styled as the "administration enemies" of Howard University by its president, J. Stanley Durkee, have been dropped from the university's faculty on the false pretense of economy and a so-called educational survey made by an expert, according to Orlando C. Thornton, who is appealing to the public and alumni for them to demand his reinstatement as a member of the faculty, claiming that his dismissal was unjust
Dr. Charles R. Brown, dean of the divinity school at Yale University and president of the Howard University's board of trustees, will not take any action in the case of the ousted professor, according to a letter written by the dean to Prof. Thornton. He said that the matter will have to be taken up through the faculty with President Durke. A sight to drive Dr. Durke from Howard is being urged by Dr. William A. Stainold, former trustee and one of the oldest graduates of Howard, who is touring country, and the Howard Alumna Association.
The fight by the general Alumun Association to oust Dr. Durkee from Howard was brought about by his attempt to drop Dean Kelly Miller, Dean George Cooke, Prof. Alaine Locke, Prof. Thornton, and Prof. Lorchard from the faculty of the university, it is claimed. Later the three professors were dropped while Dean Miller was reduced to the rank of a professor and Dean Cooke was made Dean Emeritus.
"I dislike very seriously being treated so at a time when there is expressed hereabout some doubt of the loyalty of a few teachers to the administration. While I am definitely made to understand that my case is a clean one, that there is no impatience of disloyalty, certainly the public will not understand, and I would naturally be classed as a malignant and an administration enemy, especially when the 'shake-up' at Howard is due, in a large measure, to so-called administration enemies. I fear that I shall be unable to bear up under the diagnose of that," Prof. Thurston declared.
The action taken by the president in making readmissions at the university was based on the economy plan of President Coolidge and on the so-called survey made by the educational expert from Columbia. It is said, the incursion of Durkheim's action, his canning disposition and his militaristic manner in handling affairs was pointed out in the report made by Prof. Thurton.
Prof. Theorem is a native of Pittsburgh. He finished the elementary schools in that city. In 1930 he graduated from the University of Pittsburgh with the degree of Bachelor of Science in Economics. Since that time he has done special work at the University of Pennsylvania. He is a member of the International Accountant Society, becoming eligible for membership by having successfully passed twenty-two examinations. When in the set of completing the requirement for the degree of C. P. A., his official duties made it necessary for him to discontinue his work.

New Rule at Columbia Not Discriminatory
That six Negro students have been assigned to rooms in the dormitory at Columbia University was revealed by application blanks that require the student to insert the name of his race on applying for a room. The new rule that has been put into operation, that requires each student to place the name of the race he belongs to, is not to be used to discriminate any students. Dr. John J. Coss, director of the summer session, declared. He said that no controversy had arisen over the assignments to rooms.
"So far as colored students are concerned, we have found a large majority of them prefer to live with others of their own race," he said.

Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity Maintains High Rating at Syracuse University
CLEVELAND, O.—In a communication recently received by Attorney Norman L. McGhee of Cleveland, O., national secretary of the Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity, v. W. M. Smallwood, chairman of the fraternity committee of Syracuse University, states that the Iota Chapter of the Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity was among the fraternities at Syracuse University maintaining a high average for the past school year.
In Dr. Smallwood's report its states: "The present plan of indicating the relative standing of the fraternities is now to us at Syracuse. The immediate reason for making the change from a percentage rating to this one is the adoption of the group plan of grading. The essential fact that we wish to learn from a study of the scholastic work of fraternities is their success in meeting or exceeding the minimum requirement for graduation which is that work counted toward a degree shall be passed with an average of "C." That is, the candidate must have earned a degree in college hours required in the course in which he is registered. If we take the total number of hours which any student carries in any year and the total number of grade points earned, and divide the number of hours we find the relative success of such a

Assistant Post Office Chief Speaks at Postal Employees' Convention
WASHINGTON, D. C., July 18—First Assistant Postmaster General J. H. Bartlett was received with enthusiasm when introduced at the convention of the National Alliance of Postal Empires here Friday. He invited the colored clerks, outliers and railway mail service men to examine the bright side of their employment and to think with optimism of the future.
Mr. Bartlett stated that colored men comprise about 8 per cent of the total of postal employees. There are, he said, 22,000 colored postal employees out of a total: 300,000, none of whom received in salary less than $1,700. Responding to questions, he suggested that the clerk's pension should be $1,200 rather than $720. He also outlined the policy of the department to give employees as much time off Saturday afternoons as the work would permit.
Referring to matters of discrimination affecting colored men in the service, he said:

The same method can be utilized in determining the relative success of a group of students, such as a fraternity, and this is the method that has been employed in the present ratings. It is a satisfaction to report that no fraternity fails to have an average rating of more than 1.00. The rating 1.00 indicated that the fraternity as a group has earned as many grade points as credit hours, which means that the members of the fraternities take as groups averaged to be successful in meeting the requirements for graduation. Inasmuch as these requirements were raised when the grade point system was adopted, this showing on the part of the fraternities is to be commended.
In view of the fact that Alpha Phi Alpha is the only Negro College Fraternity on the campus of Arvaceus University which has faculty recognition, such information regarding the high rating obtained by this group of representative Negro college students should prove gratifying to the Negro people throughout the country. The average maintained by the Alpha Phi Alpha was 1.240, being close to the front in the list of more than fifty organizations at the Arvaceus University.
If I were on the civil service commission again and you browse in this question. While the photograph gives the chance to discriminate on account of color, the thing for you to fight is not the civil service means of identification, but to make a change in the position of the fellow, in whatever department, who discriminates on account of color. Stand up and fight that fellow. It is the better way to cure the evil."

“Self” One -of
Greatest Evils
Rev. HK, Spearman, New
Pastor of Bethel Char,
in Pointed Sermon
“One of three greatest evils that
exist today that 1s detrimental to
an individual i “self.” As & race,
as a brother, we sre constantly
building forte against one another
when wo should be busy repairing
our own fort” ‘That was the be
Wet expressed by the Rev. H. K.
Spearman, pastor of Bethel A. M.
Church, in bis sermon Bunday
morning.
In a prrable be showed how &
fort that had been bullt by a king
to attack another people was trans-
formed to a fort of advantage for
the other people. He then empha-
sized the point to use things that
are done against you to some good
adventége: The two ather évils
that exist todsy are the devi! and
people.
“Im reconstructing your charac:
ter you can use one of the devil's
stones, which is careful watching.
‘The Lord wants us to take that
jstone out of the devil's fort so as
to guard against him. If you'll get
lose to Jesus, he'll help you tear
down stone by stone and timber by
[Umber of the devil's fort.
“People built forts against thetr
‘brothers. You awake some mort-
{ings and think that your temple
bas been built and that the fag of
‘victory is waving on top, when, in
fact, it has been torn down. ‘Be
jeareful who you bulld your fort
against. You might attempt to
bulld one against God's children.
“You have g magic powor in life.
Every quailty in your Nite was cre-
ated for good. There is a power in
our beast that can transform the
int a playground for the
devil.” he said.
| Following Ne minister's sermon,
the conductor of the choir sank
“There is Nothing Between My
oul and My Saviour.” The Rev.
Spearman then appealed to per
sons in the congregation that were
Rot members of some church fz
New York to join some church

E. Jones Returns From Trip West
on Coast
Eugene Kinchle Jones, executive secretary of the National Urban League, has just returned to New York after a 7,500-mile trip to Pacific Coast cities, where he investigated the soidal conditions among Negroes and inspected work of the Urban League in cities of the Middle West.
While en route, he visited Denver, where the National Conference of Social Work, of which he is the only colored member of the Executive Board, held its annual meeting. From Denver Mr. Jones visited Los Angeles, where there is a thriving Urban League supported by the Community Chest to the extent of $11,300; San Diego, San Francisco, Oakland, Portland and Seattle. He found a Negro population of 3,000 in Portland of 4,000 in Seattle and San Francisco of 6,000 and San Diego 2,500-all fertile fields for Urban League work.
Mr. Jones states that the League further plans to stimulate interest in the Urban League's plan of organization in these coast cities.
In Minneapolis, Mr. Jones addressed the students of the Department of Sociology of the University of Minnesota, and in St. Paul spoke on the subject of "The Negro in the North" from Radio Station WCCO. maintained by the Washburn, Crossy Flour Mills, in co-operation with the Chambers of Commerce of St. Paul and Minneapolis. Mr. Jones also addressed the Urban League mass meetings in St. Paul and Minneapolis, where the Minneapolis Urban League was formally launched, with Mr. A. L. Harris, former "Fellow" of the League and teacher at the West Virginia College Institute, as executive secretary. The Urban League is now supported by community chefs in twenty cities. There are twenty-eine Urban Leagues with offices and staffs, requiring the expenditure this year in the neighborhood of $400,000, including the budget of the national office.
In speaking of the National Conference of Social Work, Mr. Jones states that in his opinion this organization is one of the most democratic movements in America. In addition to having set speeches on the Negro by three colored persons, there were two important addresses by prominent white members of the conference on the Manace of Racial and Religious Influence. Throughout the conference there were two addresses to the fabric of the discussion a thread of racial interest which indicated that the more than 3,600 delegates there were thoroughly aroused to the importance of developing better relations in interracial contacts that our democratic institutions may be preserved.
CRUELTY TO CONVICTS
CHARGED IN MISS.
(Preston News Service.)
JACKSON, Miss., July 13.—Excessive flogging is charged in a report of the board of prison trustees by Col. Montgomery, a member of the board, when he calls attention to two camps on the Parchman farm as the chief offenders. Col. Montgomery has worked strenuously for a number of years to check corporal punishment of prisoners. He says that official investigations disclose that cruel use of the lash is too often the result of malicious brevity on the part of those in authority over the men, and there is serious doubt as to whether more harm than good results from this ignorinous form of punishment that breeds only more intense resentment against organized society.
BAPTIST CHURCH
ENTERTAINS WORKERS
(Preston News Service.)
MEMPHIS, Teen. July 13.—The industrial efficiency department of the Tabernacle Baptist Church, Rev. Sutton E. Griggs, pastor, entertained the Migr-Morgan Company and its employees in the main auditorium of the church on the corner of Georgia avenue and Landersdale street, Monday night. Some of the best musical talent among the colored people of the city rendered selections, Felix Read, the foreman of the Migr-Morgan Company, furnished several numbers with his quartet. The Willburn singers, led by P. E. Scott, were on the program. L. E. Campbell, who has won quite a reputation in the rendering of Negro spirituals, was among the entertainers.

WASHINGTON, D. G. —Nicely per cent of the $1,000,000 Houston-Tukwawee endowment fund has been subscribed, the committee announced this week, leaving only $500,000 to be obtained in order that the conditional gift of $1,000,000 from George Bastian might be assured Under Mr. Bastian's offer, the balance must be raised by December 31.

PROFITS OF CHARITY
CHARITY should be profitable to individuals who are in need of it and not to those who dispense it. To convince the public that funds collected from it are being spent for the purposes for which they were solicited, most charitable organizations issue periodic reports to the public, through the press and by other means.
THE HARLEM CHILDREN'S FRESH AIR FUND, directed by Guilford M. Crawford, is a charitable organization, in that it solicits funds through the press, in public theatres and in various other ways, to help the poor children of Harlem enjoy the great out-of-doors. The Amsterdam News has from time to time opened its columns to the project, but has insisted that a report be made of the disposition of the funds collected, so that it might more wholeheartedly co-operate with the officers of the Fund.
THE DIRECTOR of the Fund has been reluctant to make such a report and for that reason we have closed our columns to its activities. This action is taken without in the least charging that the moneys collected have been profitable to Mr. Crawford or to any of the officers of the Fund, but because we believe that the public is entitled to know what is done with money contributed by it.
Out in Colorado the chances are that every third colored unit you meet was either born in Missouri, Texas, Tennessee or Alabama.

Rabbis Lecture in Seminaries
Klaas J
WASHINTON, D. C.—Jewish rabbis are lecturing in Protestant theological seminars on race relations as exchange professors. Christian institutes are spelling in Jewish colleges and institutions on the morrowhood of race. He says in report by John W. Herring, secretary of the Committee on Goodwill Between Jews and Christians of the Federal Council of Churches, to members of his committee and to a group of rabbis representing the Central Conference of American Rabbi.
Among theological seminaries which are taking part in this exchange of lecturers are those of McCormick University, the University of Chicago, Oberlin College and the Union Theological Seminary. Rabbis and Christian ministers serving as exchange professors include: Rabbi Solomon Freebof of Chicago, Rabbi S. Mayerberg of Dayton. Professor Eustace Haydon of the University of Chicago, and President Ozora D. Davis, Chicago Theological Seminary. In addition, students at a number of colleges have had group discussions on race questions.
Newspapers throughout the country are helping to create understanding and goodwill between Christians and Jews and other racial groups, states the report, which says that a recent statement formulated by the Jolat Committee of Jews and Christians was widely published by the press.
In addition, newspapers have sought and published, Mr. Herring deanus, many articles and interviews with both Jews and Christians on the subject of race relations. The newspapers, he says, also have covered fairly and adequately meetings which have been held in many cities and towns throughout the country. The
RISING TIDE OF COLOR
It is of the greatest importance to all students of the American Negro problem to analyze the causes of the uprising of the Chinese masses at present against the oppressive yoke of European and American imperialism. Throughout the colored world there is an upuurgency of the oppressed colonial peoples against the policies of plunder and dire exploitation of France, England, America and Japan.
The imperialists for a long time have endeavored to partition China among themselves. Just as, long ago, they did of Africa. A wide wave of rebellious reaction has set in among the Chinese masses against these foreign brigands.

The Oneness of Our News papers Becoming Apparent
The Oneness of Our Newspapers Becoming Apparent
as much as many of our past actions have "umped" us non-co-operative, unorganized for the late action, release to insults or misreprisonation aimed at the race, who can say that the newspapers worth while were "salee at the march" on the recent Bullard utterances relative to prowess of colored soldiers. There were no special arrangements brought out from a direct mutual understanding. Numerical press service, at the time, to furnish the stored copy which may have been printed simply use it was furnished. Neither was there an article "stuff to insure or encourage its publication" just a natural outburst of the press of engaged people who are slowly but surely awakened to a commendable race consciousness which lies for a real and natural race defense and protection which should be inevitable whenever an artificial person or thing is singled out. Make it good or bad, newspapers are sentimentary. Sentiment, when at variance with the established laws, becomes the active law. No law actively enforced if the prevailing sentiment is mist. This being true, it is one of the most useful signs of a growing racial unity that has been affected for years.
The Chicago Bee earnestly trusts that the good manned in being practically unanimous is going to the aid of our people, yes, any people in them are maligned and vilified for usuriousness, will not stop short with the General Bullard's "memories" or "memoirs."
Since the pen is更易 than the sword and since the newspapers are the "common carriers" of pen, let us gird up our loins, brother editors, and a firmer grip on wielding the pen in good sense making for the worthy until the people then will catch the spirit—resulting in both people's "press" working for the general good to the end that the professional slanders will find no useful places among us.
As much as many of our past actions have "stamped us non-co-operative, unorganized for immediate action, unresentful to insults or misrepresentation aimed at the race, who can say that the race newspapers worth while were "asleep at the switch" on the recent Bullard utterances relative to the prowess of colored soldiers.
There were no special arrangements brought about from a direct mutual understanding. No special press service, at the time, to furnish the prepared copy which may have been printed simply because it was furnished. Neither was there any "paid article" stuff to insure or encourage its publication—just a natural outburst of the press of enraged people who are slowly but surely awakening to a commendable race consciousness which makes for a real and natural race defense and protection which should be inevitable whenever any special people or thing is singled out.
Be it good or bad, newspapers are sentiment makers. Sentiment, when at variance with the established laws, becomes the active law. No law is effectively enforced if the prevailing sentiment is against it. This being true, it is one of the most hopeful signs of a growing racial unity that has been manifested for years.
The Chicago Bee earnestly trusts that the good beginning made in being practically unanimous in coming to the aid of our people, yes, any people, when they are maligned and vilified for ulterior reasons, will not stop short with the General Bullard's "memories" or "memoirs."
Since "the pen is mightier than the sword" and since the newspapers are the "common carriers" of the pen, let us gird up our loins, brother editors, and take a farmer grip on wielding the pen in good sentiment making for the worthy until the people themselves will catch the spirit—resulting in both people and "press" working for the general good to the extent that the professional slanderers will find no restful places among us.

Klan Provokes Assaults on Children Judge Ben Lindsey Says, Scoring It
DENVER. July—Judge Ben B. Lindsay of the Denver Juvenile and Family Court, speaking at a meeting recently of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, in Zion Baptist Church, asserted that complaints had been filed in his court by parents and teachers whose children had been assaulted because they were Catholics or Jew. Judge Lindsay said, in part: "We have had complaints from parents and teachers in our court in Denver of assaults upon white children because
action of American newspapers in this matter, he states, will have a reflex influence on the European press. Both the Protestant and Jewish religions are in this growing understanding between racial groups, it is asserted.
"Ideas of neighborhood and the exchange of courtesy and hospitality through groups of various races and classes have made progress," says Dr. Alfred Williams Anthony, chairman of the committee. "In many cities regular 'town meetings' or forum councils are being organized for the discussion of racial, international and community problems. Chicago is the most advanced, with a paid secretary.

they were Catholic or Jews. These assaults have been just as unreasonable, unChristian and violent as they ever were upon people just because God's sunshine and climate had made their skins black instead of white.
"It is not uncommon to receive reports of hostility among children in this and, no doubt, other Klan-ridden communities, all because of their differences in religion and because these innocent children are poisoned with the idea that they are better than others and that, socially, Catholic and Jewish children are not any more fit to be their companions than colored children.
"One of the many lessons we are to learn from the Ku Klux Klan is that the white man is becoming a common sufferer with the colored man because of intolerance and injustice to the Negro. If the Negro can be, as he has been, denied his constitutional rights, may not the same thing be done to the white man? Thus this phenomenon of the Klan, even though it be a phase, and a passing phase, in newtribalism, one of the penalties upon the stairs of all of us in an all too heedless disregard of the rights of men while color differs from ours.
"Colored men, equally children of the same Pachyli are coming sooner and sooner to real life will their white brothers. Their patience, their burdensome, their compassion and their Christian attitude towards appearance and conditions are behind a greater vision of a more rapid in the end than their beadage than some possibly come from any notion that invoked other wars, violence or hate. These cultured weapons of the past are being revived again in the modern habituation of the Kiss Kiss."
Housing Report Shows Difficulty Negroes Have in Finding Homes
Housing Report Shows Difficulty Negroes Have in Finding Homes
WASHINGTON.—Efforts of Negro Americans to find suitable homes throughout the country make a stirring story, as related in the introduction of a report on housing by the Commission on Race Relations of the Federal Council of Churches.
Negro families are attempting to move from alley and congested districts in nearly every part of the country. In some cities where they have lived in neighborhoods teemed by white residents their new homes have been set on fire and in others they have been bombed, declares the report.
Negro population, especially in the cities, is most acute.
"Negroes have repeatedly explained that the efforts of colored families to move into 'white neighborhoods' are not due to the fact that they wish to associate with the white people as such, but rather to
One of the most surprising incidents in the record is of a white congregation singing "Onward Christian Soldiers" marching to the home of a highly-educated Negro, who was engaged in important educational work. The leader handed the owner of the home a written demand that he leave the neighborhood and waited for his reply. The owner said he would remain where he was. The crowd left, but special police protection was needed for some time before the family felt safe in their home
It is not because Negroes wish merely to move into white neighborhoods and to have white neighbors, but because they have suffered even more from the housing shortage than white persons and are seeking to improve their health and living conditions by leaving the alleys and undesirable districts to which they have generally been expected to confine themselves to the outlines of the report. Attempts of various kinds have been made by individuals and organizations to meet the situation and to provide suitable housing for colored people.
"Negro Americans have even more difficulty than other residents in finding suitable places in which to live because prejudice against them operates regardless of culture or financial ability," says the introduction to the report. "Under ordinary conditions other racial and national groups can usually secure housing accommodations in almost any residential area if they can pay for them, and maintain the neighborhood standards in other respects.
"It has frequently happened, however, that Negro residents have not been permitted to remain unmolested in their own homes even though they kept their property in superior condition and otherwise conducted themselves with entire propriety. Hoodlums have been permitted to break windows and to destroy flowers and shrubbery.
"Houses have been bombed. Concerted action on the part of supposedly respectable citizens in the way of anonymous warnings of calamities unless the property was vacated, actual physical attacks on members of the family, and destruction of property by fire carried out, are measures that have been used to force colored people from homes in neighborhoods where living conditions are desirable.
"Court action has been resented to. Decision by the United States Supreme Court has made impossible restriction by ordinance of the residence privilege of any part of the population, but groups of property holders have entered into voluntary agreements to exclude Negro residents from property owned or controlled by them, and have brought pressure to bear on neighbors to force them to join in an excluding Negroes. A suit to make impossible this method of abrogating the Constitutional right of citizens is now pending before the Supreme Court of the United States.
"Frequently the only houses available for colored tenants have been in districts infected with vice or other low moral standards, in spite of the desire of the colored people to provide decent surroundings for their children. Almost always the areas to which they are expected to confine their residence are those least adequately provided with street paving, sewage and garbage disposal and other sanitary provisions, and fire and police protection.
In many cases no adequate housing legislation has been enacted. In other cases existing legislation does not afford colored tenants the protection it gives to others because it is not enforced for their benefit. Efficient enforcement requires an adequate staff for inspection. Insufficient enforcement is sometimes due to lack of and sometimes to unequal distribution of inspection service, and sometimes to failure to enforce the regulations for other reasons.
In addition to difficulties due to prejudice, the economic limitations of the colored citizens still further restrict their choice of dwelling. As a result of these conditions, at a time when there is a shortage of housing for colored citizens

Negro population, especially in the cities, is most acute.
"Negroes have repeatedly explained that the efforts of colored families to move into 'white neighborhoods' are not due to the fact that they wish to associate with the white people as such, but rather to the fact that usually the only decent housing conditions are in such neighborhoods."
Attempts of various kinds have been made by individuals and organizations to meet the different situations and to provide adequate housing accommodation for the colored people. Important illustrations of some of these efforts are described in the report in order to answer the questions of those who want to know what has been done, how it has been done, by whom, and what the result has been.
Negro Is Hero of Earthquake
SANTA BARBARA—Forgetting his color and the gross injustices heaped against his race, James Horton, a porter at the Arlington Hotel here, saved the lives of a dozen women and recovered the dead body of Bertrum Hancock, 51, the only son of G. Allan Hancock, Los Angeles millionaire, amid the excitement following the great quake early Monday morning.
Horton, single-handed, with only his strength and indomitable will urging him to go to the rescue of the quake victims, carried woman after woman down the crumbling stairway of the almost completely demolished Arlington Hotel and placed them in safety upon the lawn.
Though each trip up and down the shairs took away his strength and brought fatigue and exhaustion to his body, with its attendant dangers from falling bricks and walls, Horton braved the danger, and on each time of his perilous venture brought the almost lifeless forms of unconscious white women to safety. Hancock's body was brought from out of the wreckage of the hotel after the first tambor had swayed back the center of the hotel, causing the interior and outer walls of the building to fall. Mrs. Hassan J. Titus, a wealthy resident of Los Angeles, was saved from the falling walls when Horton made a des-
Soliloquy of Satan
J. OTHO GRAY
HA, HA, HA, I am Satan, monarch of a drear dominion; a bleak and fetid gulf that is a nursery of abomination and house of woe! I sway the realm of darkness. I am the lord of hell. Ah, signor, mine is a sorry kingdom; a domain of desolation, rabid self-love, insane pride, fierce cruelty and quenchless unrest! My subjects are hideous to behold; the sunlight flees in terror at their approach, the winds of heaven shudder in afright at their presence, the trees are stricken dumb, the flowers are outraged — all creation is alarmed and pales at the thought of them, for there can be no quietude where my outcasts place their feet!
Ah, signor, mine is a sorry kingdom, but my power is great, for it reaches into the world of mortals and seeks its prey with greedy relish! With diabolic satisfaction I pull men down, down, down to the depths of the Stygiian Creek, but only when they reach out to me and foster the thought of evil in their hearts. Look abroad upon the land; employ your wits. Think ye that all these puppets are blameless before their God? Legions of these creatures make themselves into hall-fodder, impoverishing themselves for the sake of avarice, passion and vanity. Oh, vanity, vanity, who can measure the vanity of man? Justly I speak with decision of these two-legged grasshoppers that are taken in their own craft, that turn away from the sunny meadows of Paradise and choose them the carrion and squawal of the abyss. Theo they cope to Tartarus, they have only themselves to blame, for there is no power of compulsion that can make any man sin in his heart if his spirit looks to the stars.
Hell's fiercest onalaught is vain when man's foundation rests upon the Rock of Ages. Myriads dwell with me, reaching in glory and deprivation. Of that accured crew lost in hell, forever damned, not one can be found vile enough to say he forged his doom with his soil looking upward. Oh ye that inhabit temples of clay and understand not the meaning of what you do, waste not your substance, burrow not your inheritance nor sacrifice to the golden calf. Good is good and evil is evil, and both hear wondrous fruit in the womb of eternity.
Hie, he, he, I am Satan, Prince of Evil, and the spirit that rebels, but I am lost! Oh, the happy fields of Eden, the garden of Heupersider, the numerous bliss of Viviana desired me forever! Down, rebellion! he, Saviour—feeding sinion—Satan, Satan, dog, fire of corruption, are you a wounding also? Awesome, ye anguish, away crucifix — I am lament—he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, I am lost — oh Christ!
perate dash for her safety to the fourth floor of the building and brought her down the steps with the cool and calm attitude of a real hero.
To-day Horton is quietly aiding in the relief work being administered to residents of the stricken city.
He is declared to be the hero of heroes of the great disaster.
Horton is a native of Santa Barbara. He is 22 years of age, unmarried, and highly esteemed by all who know him.

7 States Pass Anti-Lynching Laws
Two Others Strengthen Statues Against Mob Violence
WASHINGTON, July. — Seven States have passed new laws for the suppression of lynching during the last ten years, according to a report prepared by Professor Monroe N. Work of Tuskegee Institute for the Commission on Race Relations of the Federal Council of Churches to be published shortly. Two other States—Oklahoma and North Carolina—have strengthened their laws against the "great American crime." In all there are now thirteen States that have special lynching laws.
Bills for the suppression of lynching have been introduced into practically all Southern States. Four of the States passing new anti-lynching laws are Northern or Western. They are Kansas, Minnesota, New Jersey and Pennsylvania. Two of them—Kentucky and West Virginia—may be classed as Border States. Other States with anti-lynching laws are Alabama, Indiana, Ohio, South Carolina and Tennessee.
During this ten-year period, according to the report, the Federal anti-lynching law, known as the Dyer bill, was introduced into Congress, and its discussion greatly aroused public attention to the evil. The bill was pending when Congress adjourned.
In announcing the publication of the report, Dr. Havness, secretary of the Commission, says: "These efforts for national and State laws will be a great help against mob violence. Legislation will be effective, however, just in so far as public opinion leaches up the law and insists that officers uphold the laws and protect prisoners, and that properly constituted courts try prisoners, irrespective of color or creed, in an impartial manner. During the first five months of this year there were seven lynchings, one of the victims being burned at the stake. This is two victims more than the first six months of last year and seven too many for America. The churches and all good citizens must redouble their efforts to stop the mob record

One reads this notice of the publishers with enthusiasm that is not dulled after the book is finished. For Mr. Taylor is a careful scholar, able from the first to give us a picture of reconstruction days freed from the desire to prove a case, and dispassionate to a degree that is sometimes ponderous. Yet one sees he is a Negro writing from the standpoint of his own race. How much this book is needed, one familiar with the hectic literature of reconstruction alone can understand.
It is in the care and attention of the delicate nervous system and brain, however, that most parents fail, through neglect or ignorance, resulting in an impetus, impulsive, an overreaction, child rattles, dull or obstinate. These are the children most people call unruly, but medical science calls them neurotic.
These children need proper care and treatment, and if their neurotic impulses are restrained, guided or curbed they will grow into normal adolescence, with pleasing and happy personalities. There are two types of neurotic children. First, the unrestrained emotional type; they are the impetuous, impulsive, overwilful, superstitious, timid and over worried child. The second type is the restrained emotional child, characterised by being reticent, obigate, dull and overconcerns. Most of the naughtiness, disobedience and tempers of children may be found in characteristics peculiar to one of these types of emotionalism.
Parents, therefore, should watch carefully the child, in order to mould its growing personality by proper restraint, advice and punishment. Notice if your child shows the inability to concentrate; if it falls persistently to devote its time to the accomplishments of a particular work or duty.

Out of the mass of important material gathered from a multitude of sources, certain facts stand out clearly. One is the demoralization of the South, after the war, morally economic. The aristocracy in their short months of government, by their black codes and pionage, treated the Negro as still virtually a slave. The poor whites, many of whom doubtless understood that it had been a rich man's war and a poor man's fight, "were possessed with a singularly bitter and vindictive feeling against the Negroes since they had ceased to be property. The pecuniary value which the individual Negro formerly represented having disappeared, the malming and killing of them seemed to have been looked upon by many as one of those venial offenses which must be forgiven to the outraged feelings of a wronged and robbed people." . . The Negroes, outside of a small, well-to-do group of former free men, and the most intelligent of the slaves, were ignorant, without property, often wanderers. Many died in the early months after the cessation of the war from want.
For ten years these various groups were under the reconstitution government, and the second important fact in that the workers advanced greatly in these ten years. The artistry was improved, but the men of the people programmed. We have pages of important figures showing the increase in manufacture, the growth of cotton mills of the phosphate industry, or laboring. Even agriculture, at first throughout, later contributed directly to production. And we
If it shows any of these traits, methods should be 'used to bring about a change. Is no personality be developed.
There must be persistent correction in these outbursts of emotionalisms. Do not say the child is nervous and make no effort to correct the condition. Nervousness depends upon emotional instability, lack of inhibition, absence of will, enslavement to impulse. Parents, therefore, should try to strengthen the will, and dehorme this impetuosity. This can only be partly helped in the school room; the larger training and treatment must be done at home. Parents should not always try to make life's pathway of the child too easy; teach the child the "business" of overcoming obstacles and the moral grandeur of overcoming temptation. Teach him the truth. In this way the child will overcome if restrained or unrestrained emotionalism and be made strong to overcome evil persistently perform the assigned work or duty and develop self control. Remember the children of to-day will be the men and women of to-morrow.

economic improvement came education, especially for the Negro, who had not only the very adequate new state schools, but the excellent schools started by northern philanthropy. Colored churches multiplied and the freed man began to know the stability of a home. Those must have been stirring days for the black man, dangerous, with the Ku Klux Klan roaming the land, but magnificent.
Half of the book is non-political and half given up to an account of the reconstruction government. We are shown all its wastefulness, its vanity. The stalting was great, almost equal to that. Tweed was putting over in New York. But one learns that there was a reform element, some members of which were Negroes, and as one reads it looks, as though that element might win out when the Presidential election of 1876 occurs and the black man of the South is left without Federal aid. Then comes the elimination of the Negro vote by various fraudulent methods. We leave him in 1888 disfranchised by the State's new constitution.
According to Mr. Taylor's story the poor white was in every way inferior to the aristocracy and the thinking Negro, left without Federal support, wisely chooses to support the aristocratic class. Portions the poor white, who was fighting the populist battle, had thus a legitimate grievance against the black man.
