DYER HAS HUSBAND OF CANDIS DAY ARRESTED
1
CHARLES SUMNER,
of 1849
IN THESE days when the
lure of gold on the one
hand and the pyramided
prestige of Anglo-Saxon
clan on the other hand poten-
tially influences certain
blacks and certain whites, re-
ceptively, to bend to the
will of DISCRIMINATION
and SEGREGATION in
many of the public school
systems of the United States,
defying Constitutional pre-
cepts and Christian brotherhood, it may not be amiss to turn back to a day in the
life of the late Charles Sumner,
of Massachusetts, United
States Senator, states-
man, champion of Negro
rights, and human citadel of
justice.
On December 4, 1849, Mr. Sumner appeared before the Supreme Court of Massachusetts as counsel for Sarah R. Roberts, a colored child five years old, who, by her past friend, had sued the City of Boston for damages on account of a refusal to receive her into the public schools. The question stated by Mr. Sumner was: "Can any discrimination on account of color or race be made under the Constitution and laws of Massachusetts among the children entitled to the benefit of our public schools?" In opening his argument, Mr. Sumner said to the Court: "This little child asks at your hands her personal rights. So doing she calls openly upon you to decide a question which concerns the personal rights of every colorful child; which concerns the fundamental principles of human rights; which concerns the Christian character of this community. Such parties and such interests, so grunted and varied, may justly challenge your most earnest attention."
In touching upon Sumner's remarkable logic in this particular his biographer says (in 1874): "The freedom from caste which characterizes the schools of the young States of the Northwest may be largely ascribed to the influence of this argument presented to the bench of judges in Massachusetts."
Charles Sumner, the truly great Commander, continued this argument of 1849 with the following allegations, which it is well that you and I amid, as we said before, the lure of gold and the pyramidified prestige of Anglo-Saxon blood, should well consider in this modern age, when DISCRIMINATION and SEGREGATION are being meted into American life in a way which their proponents consider highly ethical. Listen to Sumner in 1849:
Listen to Summer in Iowa.
As the State receives strength from the unity and solidarity of its citizens, without distinction of class, so the school receives, new strength from the unity and solidarity of all classes beneath its roof.
In this way the poor, the humble and the neglected share not only the companionship of their more favored brothel, but enjoy also the protection of their presence in drawing toward the school a more watchful superintendence. A degraded or neglected class, if left to themselves, will become more degraded or neglected. To him that hath shall be given and the world, true to these words, turns from the poor and outcast to the rich and fortunate. It is the aim of our system of public schools, by the blending of the whole school to draw upon the whole school intention which is too ant to be only to the favored few, and thus secure the poor their portion of the fruitful sunshine. BUT THE COLORED CHILDREN, PLACED APART BY THEMSELVES. ARE DEPRIVED OF THIS BLESSING.
"May it please your honors, such are some of the things which it has occurred to me to say in this important case. I have occupied much of your time, but I have not yet exhausted the topics. Still, which way soever we turn, we are brought back to one single proposition, THE EQUALITY OF MEN BEFORE THE LAW. This stands as the mighty guardian of the rights of the colored children in this case. It is the constant, ever present tutelary genius of this Commonwealth, frowning upon every privilege of birth, upon every institution of caste. You cannot slight it or avoid it; you cannot restrain it. It rehails that you should welcome and protect your children and words will be a cheer and freedom of rejoicing to a race which has earned by much suffering a title to much regard. Your judgment will become a sacred landmark, not in jurisdiction only, but in the history of freedom, giving precious encouragement to all the weary and heavy-laden way-farers in this great cause. Massachusetts will then, through you, have a fresh title to resard and be once more, as in times past, an example to the whole land."
this spoke Charles Summer. In 1958 he would say he were here to work.

Yom Kippur Closes
Most Harlem Stores
Harlem was the only community
where literally all business was
closed Monday, Yom Kippur, and
it was necessary for persons to
walk from ten to fifteen blocks to
find an open grocery, market or
dellentonsen shop. Stores in other
sections operated without being
noticeably affected by the holiday,
but in Harlem Negroes own few
of the many stores they support

R.S.CONKLIN RE-ELECTED BY NEGRO MAJORITY IN 21ST A. D.
Negro Leaders of District Fail to Unite to Get Recognition Votes Entitle Them to
BY THE POLITICAL OBSERVER.
At a meeting of the Republican County Committee of the 21st A. D. presided over by Chairman Tuttle of the General Advisory Committee, last Tuesday, Robert S. Cunklin was re-elected leader of the district in the face of a Negro majority, over Charles W. B. Mitchell, Negro co-leader of the district and candidate of the Appomattox Republican Club. The vote was 87 to 19. The meeting was held in the Manhattan Republican Club.
White County Committeemen voted solidly for Cunklin, but factions led by John Clifford Hawkins, Mr. and Mrs. Richard E. Warner and George W. Hurts seemed prefered white leadership to Negro leadership in a district, the majority of whose voters are Negroes.
The action of Mr Hawkins, who is the leader of the Bradhurst Republican Club, who supported Conklin for re-election, is easily explained, for while Mitchell is supposed to be the elected co-leader of the district, Hawkins' club succeeded in getting more recognition from Conklin than the Appomattox Club. Warner, who is a prohibition agent, is also supposed to be in Conklin's good graces.
The case of George W. Harris, who went so far as to make a speech in support of Conklin's leadership, is more difficult of explanation because he has somersaulted from his position of a year ago when he was looked upon as Conklin's bitterest enemy in speeches and in his New York News, he painted Conklin as the greatest enemy Negro voters in the 21st A. D. have ever had. Yet Harris seems forget all of his utterances Tuesday night and praised his erstwhile enemy.
Harris, who is characterized by many voters as the most "office hungry" man in Harlem and who, because of the readiness with which he changes his front when it serves his own purposes has self-sufficient to reinstate his self-important organization, but in doing so has posited what little following he had in the district. He was defeated in the recent primary election by Theodore B. Smith for the Aldermane nomination and has asked for another election.
Neither Smith nor Pope B. Billips, candidates for re-election to the Assembly, voted for leader Tuesday, and many are speculating as to the candidate they would have supported if they had voted. The re-election of Conklin blasted the hopes of Negroes who have longed to see a Negro elected to leadership in the district which would give them their first opportunity to observe the party they support from the inside through the eyes of a member of their own race and this opportunity has been denied them by men of their own race.
SHOOTS GIRL; KILLS SELF.
NEW ORLEANS, La. Sept. 28. After shooting and probably fatally wounding Miss Lula Johnson, aged 16, Willie Anderson, aged 18, fired a bullet through his brain and died instantly last Thursday night. It is thought by police that the motive for the shooting and suicide was jealousy.
Because his wife, who was born in West Indies, cannot easily pass for white, William Roland, white, 55 West 161st street, who was brought before Magistrate James M. Barrett in the Washington Heights Court, Monday morning, on a warrant for attacking his wife, said that it was hard for him to live in any community with her.
Mrs. Williams testified that she and her husband had frequent quarrels and fights. When the wife of William, to account for his wife's binge nose, he said that in trying to block the blows from a frying pan he accidentally hit her on her nose.
The charge against the man was dismissed.
Resent 'Jim Crow' in Union Station
Bishop Walls and Mrs. Aileyne Denied Service in Washington
WASHINGTON: D. C. Sept. 28
—The Washington Branch of the N. A. A. C. P., through its president, Neval H. Thomas, and its secretary, Archibald S. Pinkett, has pledged the entire resources in legal proceedings against the new Union Station here for refusal to serve Bishop Walls and the wife of Bishop Alleyev of the A. M. E. Zion Church in the restaurant on Saturday morning.
Bishop Walls and Mrs. Alleyev were en route to New York and went to the lunchroom for breakfast. They were told that they had to accept segregated service at the colored end of the room. They immediately called up Bishop E. D. Jones and Attorney S. M. Dudley and returned to the station.
Mr. J. A. Jackson, editor of the washington Tribune, also arrived on the scene, and the group immediately sought the manager and lodged their protest only to be refused equality of service. They were told that their assistant, tenthendant and presented their exhortation that they were willing to forego their business engagements and wait in the restaurant until they were served. The station master ordered the manager to serve them. In all they lost three hours in getting their breakfast
Bishop Walls consented to return to Washington Monday, when the whole group will have a conference on procedure for entering the suit. The N. A. A. C. P. is determined to put this insulting practice to the supreme test, as it receives numerous complaints from travellers passing through who will not take the time to cooperate with the Association in legal action.

Plea Now Made to Suspend Sentence for Crime for Which Negro Would Have Been Lynched
RALEIGH, N. C., Sept. 28. — Wallace Powell, an 18-year-old white brute, was found guilty of an assault on Miss Moselle Jones, aged 14 years. Tuesday in the Wake County Superior Court on a directed verdict of Judge Garland E. Midyette, who declared that Powell was guilty on his own statement. The court reserved judgment in the case.
A large crowd of members of both races crowded in the court room and several well known white men testified as to the good character of the Powell boy and asked the Court to give him another chance. The case came up in the Superior Court on the appeal from the City Court where Powell was sentenced to six months on the roads by Judge W. C. Harris.
Judge Midyette asked attorneys for the State what punishment the Powell boy should be given. F. T. Bennett said that they thought the boy should be given a suspended sentence and fined, while Attorney R. N. Simms, counsel for the private prosecution, did not agree with the Bennett recommendation. Simms declared that he thought the good Negroes of the State should be protected and that every step should be taken to see that their rights were observed. He said that he would be more inclined to recommend clemency if the Powell boy had not appalled from the City Court sentence after he had entered a plan of nolo contendere.
Powell Admits Attack.
In court Powell admitted he at attacked the girl one Sunday night when he was alone with her in the home of his brother-in-law, Gearhart, while the family was at church. He said that the girl fought him like a tiger and finally broke away from him and ran from the house. It was also brought out that the girl suffered several scratches about her arms and body during the scuffle with Powell.
Strong pleas for clemency were made by Geanhardt, and by Rev. Sylvester Betts, white Baptist minister, who said, that the boy's father while thinking of the case had opened a hymn book at the hymn: "God Will Take Care of You." Judge Midyette suggested that the Lord took care of those who took care of themselves.
Lafayette Doorman Held for Assault
On his way into the midnight show at the Lafayette Theatre several Fridays ago, Fred Rogers, steward of the New York Press Club, was attacked by the doorman, George Main, 34, of 157 West 51st street. It was claimed when Main was arraigned before Magistrate Barrett in the Washington Heights Court. Thursday morning, he was held in $1,000 bail for a furious outcry. Water Box 2168 Seventh avenue, porter at the theatre, who appeared as a witness for Main, was held as a co-defendant. According to Rogers, Main held him while Rose struck him several blows in the face. Rogers also produced in court teeth that had been knocked out during the attack. Both of the men pleaded not guilty.

Operation of "White Slave Ring" Charged
Acting in concert with two colored men, Max Stack, 28, white, alias Morris Goldstein, 249 street and Fifth avenue, is charged with operating a "white slave ring." This was learned when Goldstein and Irving Jackson, 29, 42 W. 133rd street and Ernest Lyons, 26, 430 street and Magistrate James M. Barrett in the Washington Heights Court, Sunday morning.
Magistrate Barrett held Goldstein in a $10,000 bail and the two other men in $2,000 each for a further hearing. It is claimed that two white girls, Rose Pacchiano, 20, who said she lived in the Bronx, and Lucille Guerra, 17, of Memphis, Teen, were lured to the Fifth avenue residence while out looking for a job on the stage and were held for immoral purposes.
Need Cheap Rent, Not More Apts.
Unification of Harlem's forces for the fight in favor of the extension of the Emergency Rent Laws, to take place in the Assembly next year, is being conducted under James Middleton, chairman of the North Harlem Community Council. It is Mr. Middleton's opinion that the present method on building by the contractors will never solve the housing problem, as they cannot seem to get it into their heads that cheaper rentals more than an increased number of houses is what is needed. There is not a housing shortage at present, but a scarcity of apartments cheap enough to meet the income of the average family.
New houses at 110 West 140th street are renting for $65-$75 for two rooms and kitchenette; one room. $45. Five room apartments at 109 West 134th street which rented for $18 in 1918 are now renting for $35 for two rooms, without steam heat or coal stove, three rooms rear. $45.
The landlords look only for quick profits, not good investments, and their continual-selling and buying of the houses with an increase of price each sale is causing all the trouble, Mr. Middleton said.
Accomodations Denied 'Y' Officials
Accomodations Denied 'Y' Officials
ATLANTIC CITY, N. J., Sept. 28. White secretaries of the Student Department of the National Y. M. C. a refused Friday to take accommodations in a white hotel on the Boardwalk because the colored staff of the National Council was refused accommodations and went with the colored secretaries to the Ridley House, a colored hotel. Among the white secretaries now staying at the Ridley House are two Southern men. They are as strongly opposed to the segregation practices of the white hotels as the men from the East and West. The action of this group probably dooms Atlantic City as a future meeting place of "T" men, since the National leaders of the organization are determined that they will not hold national meetings in places that draw the color line.

Randolph Day Charged With Disorderly Conduct Growing Out of Wife's Choir Connection
It has just become known that Professor Lorenzo F. Dyer, organist and choir leader of Mt. Olivet Baptist Church, in Fifty-third street, appeared in the Fifty-fourth Street Magistrates' Court as a complainant against Randolph Day, of 42 West 139th street, whom he charged with attacking him in Fifty-third street the preceding Sunday. Day was arraigned on a charge of disorderly conduct, but following a hearing the case was dismissed.
The alleged attack followed the receipt by Mrs. Candis Day of a letter from Professor Dyer telling her that her name was no longer listed as a member of the choir, but before its receipt she had received another letter from him in which it was stated that she had violated some of the rules of the choir.
Testified that he told the professor not to write his wife again, and the alleged street attack followed the receipt of the second letter.
The real cause of the disagreement then lies back to April, 1823, when Mrs. Day and Mr. Olive Hopkins, also a member of the choir, sang with the choir over a local radio station.
A representative of The Amsterdam News listened in on the program and the next day secured a photograph of Mrs. Day which was published in the next issue of the paper.
A few days later Mrs. Day says that she received an anonymous letter in which it was stated that she had a "hell of a nerve to have her photograph published in the paper." The name of Miss Hopkins, who is the choir's leading soprano, was also mentioned in the letter. At that time Mrs. Day was the second leading soprano.
Since that time Mrs. Day, who has been a member of the church for fourteen years and the choir for six years, says a determined effort has been made to get her out of the choir.

Six Killed in Fla. Jail Break
Dead Includes Colored Trusty Shot in Confusion by Guards
MIAMI, Fla., Sept. 28—When 15 white prisoners attempted to break out of the Dade County Jail, Sun day morning, Ollie Moore, a trusty, was accidently shot and killed by a guard. Five white prisoners were also killed and a pedestrian who was walking a half block away from the jail was wounded by a stray bullet. The break was made while breakfast was being brought to the prisoners. Owing to the layout of the jail, all foods must be served through the main entrance to the jail proper. Acting Warden C. G. Pratt was stained near the door, while Moore entered with a tray of food. As Moore stepped inside the door one of the prisoners ran into him, knocking him to the floor. The rush for the door followed, and Moore, apparently confused, is said also to have started out of the building. He fell mortally wounded in the doorway.
Warden Pratt stepped into an adjoining corridor of the jail for protection. The fusillade of shots did not stop the rush for freedom, according to the Deputy Sheriffs. As the five men fell wounded, however, the others turned back into the jail.

Cop Chasing Man Is Shot in Wrist
Charged with shooting Patrolman Thomas Goodwin of the 135th street station in the right wrist, Nelson Harris, 22. address unknown, will be arraigned before Magistrate James M. Barrett in the Washington Heights Court tomorrow.
While the officer was patrolling his beat Saturday night, he was informed by some children that a man was hiding in the hall of No. 234 West 142d street. He found the man there and ordered him out.
Harris dashed for the roof, with Goodwin at his heels. Unable to evade the patrolman there, he started to descend by a rear fire escape, but was overtaken.
While scores of tenants watched out of windows, Goodwin and Harris fought. Harris drew a pistol and shot Goodwin in the right wrist, but the patrolman shifted his nightstick to his left hand and continued the battle. When other patrolmen arrived Harris was unconscious.

Every Effort Promised to Punish Lynchers
Interracial Head Voices Popular Indignation Aroused by Crime
ATLANTA, Ga., Sept. 28.—Every effort will be made to apprehend and bring to justice the persons who last Sunday lynched Willie Dixon, patient at the State Sanitarium for the Insane at Milledgeville, according to a telegram received Tuesday by the Georgia Committee on Interracial Co-operation from John T. Brantley, president of the sanitarium's board of trustees.
A thorough investigation is under way, said Mr. Brantley, all the facts will be laid before the grand jury, and everything possible will be done "to bring the perpetrators of this horrible deed to justice."
The State has offered a reward of $500 for arrest and conviction of the leader of the mob, and $100 for each of its members. Dixon, a victim of violent insanity, had last week slain one of the woman nurses at the sanitarium.
Bishop F. F. Reese, of Savannah, chairman of the State Interracial Committee, in a vigorous statement to the press, branding the act of the mob as "an outrage upon justice and upon the dignity of the State," calls upon the authorities for prompt action and upon the press and the citizens for public expressions of their "indignation and sense of outrage." The bishop's statement concludes:
"As chairman of the State Committee on Interracial Co-operation, for myself and my associates I desire to express most earnestly our utter abhorrence of this crime, and respectfully to call upon our governor and other State authorities to offer promptly as large rewards as possible for the arrest and conviction of those connected with this lynching and all other burials of mob violence. The press of the State and individual citizens will promptly and publicly express their indignation and sense of outrage. It is only by laboring

Workers Going South to Help Pick Cotton
(Preston News Service.)
MEMPHIS, Tenn., Sept. 28.—With hundreds of cotton pickers, Negroes and Mexicans, being brought into Tennessee, Arkansas it is believed by leading planters and business men that the acute labor shortage in the surrounding territory is about alleviated. They think the entire crop will be picked without further labor difficulties. Most of the plantation owners are paying transportation of workers who are being brought from the northern industrial centers and middle West. Several railroads have offered special rates to cotton pickers.

“SPEAKEASY” CAUSES KILLING
After a quarrel in front of an apartment house at
2168 Fifth avenue early Monday, Brutus Redick, 27, 2380
Seventh avenue, was shot and killed. Another man,
John Bowers, 33. 32 West 133d street, was arrested,
charged with the murder and locked up at the West
135th street police station by Patrolman Arthur Brisbane.
Madeline Austin, 25. 2394 Seventh avenue, was shot
in the left foot by one of the two revolver bullets fired
by the murderer. She was taken to the Harlem Hospital
by Dr. Totori.
According to Patrolman Brisbane the shooting re-
sulted from a quarrel about a “speakeasy.” the address
of which was refused to Redick by Bowers, who accused
Redick of being a patrolman in plain clothes.
The woman who was wounded was passing the men
when the shots were fired and had no part in the quarrel,
the police said. -

LEGISLATIVE
ELECTIONS IN
HAITI IN 1926
WASHINGTON, Sept.. 27;
—Secretary Kellogg has re-
ceived from publishers and
directors of a group, of Hai-
tian newspapers opposing
the «Administration of Presi-
dent Luis. Borno a letter vir-
tually. ..demanding ..that, the
call for legislative elections
be issued October 10 for Jan-
uary 10, 1926. This is cou-
pled with the warning that
‘the Haitians have thus. far
demanded independence “only.
by pacific and legal_means.”
‘Stale Department officials see
no Treason to expect serfous trouble
in Haltt oven if President Borno
should decide, us he probably will
and has constitutional authority
to do, to withhold the cail until
October, 1927, The “transitory”
provisions of the Constitution
stipulate merely that the legisia-
tive elections shall be held on Jan.
10 of an even-numbered year under
a@ call to be issued three months
prior to such election, which fixes
the Oct, 10 date.
The comnwunication, which bears
the signatures of four ‘members ot
the Opposition press, Ed Foujet,
E.G. Chauvet, C. Moravia and J.
Jolibols Jr.. ignores the latitude
given the Haitian President in de-
ciding on just what .eveu-number-
ed_year the election shall be held.
The legislative body, when creat-
ed, will “leet future” Presidents,
and the letter of protest assumes
that ‘next year, “American officials
here and their Haitian agents tan
to-repeat ‘the coup of 1922 and te
have the President elected, by the
Council of State; w-body of twen-
ty-one officials: named and revoked
by the President of the Republic
as he may see fit.”
Mr, Kelloge’s attention ts drawn
to “the systeniatic opposition with
which Haitian requests have al-
ways been met by American offi-
ciais in Haiti and by their Haltian
creatures and proteges.” and they
demand that Mr. Ketlogg declare
himself at once on the question of
hold a legislative election.

Douglas Men Ready to Start Big Season Which Will Introduce Sunday Night Games, With Saturday Night Being Retained as Assembly Night at the Casino
The shrill sound of the referee's whistle calling the colored and white basketball teams to the court will ring out on Sunday night. Oct. 18. at the Renaissance Casino when the crack Renaissance Big Five will take the court for their 1925-20 season against one of the best white aggregations of basketball players.
After a month of preparation Manager "Lob" Douglas has decided to start the games on the above named date and this announcement will be received with a shout of joy by the thousands patronizing these contests, which are seldom if ever devoid of the thrills which did much in keep-
ing up the interest last season
ring up the interest last season. The Saturday Night Assembly, maintained by Douglas and his associates, will continue at the恳issance Casino, the games from the 18th on being staged on Sunday nights. The Renaissance team will make its appearance intact, and having played so long as a unit the present season will most likely find the boys repeating the wonderful work which brought them games with some of the best white teams in the United States in the past.
The crowd which gathered for the usual week-end dance at the casino last Saturday night must have sensed the preparations being made for the continuation of the feature which has met with so much approval in upper Harlem, for all hands appeared to be more enthusiastic than usual and the spirit was reflected in the box office where Messrs. Mercer, King, Sibley, Douglas and Hulswould held court on the fag end of the night.
This move brings Douglas into his own as a basketball manager, for despite the past seasons of success the sacrifices he has made ever since he entered basketball have been a constant drain on his time, his energy and his finances and even five seasons of consecutive successes will be only bringing to this genial manager small returns for what he has put forth, so that the game could last among colored people.
To a man his associates are with him, and now that those hectic days of constant battle seem to be of the past, we again rise to congratulate "Smilin' Bob" on being fortunate enough to surround himself with such an array of gentlemen whose understand-
ing in catering to the public is of such appreciation for their efforts is being shown by the support given them even during the summer months when others in the same line are forced to constantly make apologies for "the hot weather."
International Bouts at the Commonwealth This Week
With Al Brown and Frisco McGale Representing the Colored End. a Glimpse at This Article Will Disclose a Wonderful Bill.
Eight nationalities will be represented at the big boxing show arranged by Promoter Jess McMahon for the Commonwealth Sporting Club in Harlem this Saturday night when Al Brown faces Irish Bobby Green. Sergeant Sammy Baker tackles Frisco McNagle and Jimmy Sakamoto hooks up with Lew Marsters in a triple header of ten rounds. There will also be a six spot between Hip Sing Lee and Jimmy McLaughlin and a four-round go featuring Mike Esposito with Abe Spinner.
Brown and McTale are colored gladiators. Sergeant Sammy Baker is German, Bobby Green and Jimmy McLaughlin are sons of Old Erin, Jimmy Sakamoto is a Jap, Hip Sing Lee a Chinese, Ab Spinner a Hebrew, Mike Esposito, an Italian, while Lew Marsters is a Czecho-Slovakian. The card is by far the greatest presented at an indoor arena in a long while. Brown and Baker are two of the most popular warriors around here. Little Al has stood out for a long time as one of the outstanding figures in the flyweight class. Sergeant Sammy Baker is the hardest hitting welterweight in the game.
Sakamoto, the Jap, scored a sensational one-round victory at the recent new talent show at Jimmy's first appearance here and made it ten straight for him. Prior to coming to Gatlin the Japanese fentherweight did his boxing at Seattle clubs.

Lincoln Giants Take Two Games on Good Hitting
Beat Bayonne and Port Richmond in Doubleheader at Bronx Oval
The Lincoln Giants won two games Sunday afternoon at the Catholic Protectory grounds in then proceeded to beat the Port Richmond nine in the second game by a score of 12 to 8. The Port Richmond game was a heavy slugging match which was called at the end of the eighth, because of darkness. The Lincoln Giants gathered in a total of 35 hits during the afternoon, while their opponents registered 17 hits. Bayonne batters seemed to have come to the Bronx without their batting eyes, for they only made three safeties. The Port Richmond players made up for this shortcoming of the visitors in the second game by collecting 14 hits.
second game. Nuttall, who did the pitching for the home club in the final contest, was touched up for three hits in the first inning and then was invincible for the remainder of the encounter. Dooley. Bayonne's hurler, was no puzzle to the Giants. The second game was an old-fashioned slugging match with hits as free as the atmosphere.

Moore Sending Banny Edwards to the Fore
Bill Tate, Rejuvenated Under Watchful Eye of Popular Oregonian, Corning Here Soon
That George P. Moore, popular manager of fighters and the man who made this section of the country sit up and take notice when he first arrived in town piloting Danny Edwards and a number of other fighters means business, is seen in his activities.
Word coming to us from the West brings the information that Danny Edwards has been signed to meet Billie Mascot at Vancouver, B.C. and Vic Foley, bantam champion of Canada, at Portland, Ore. Moore believes that these fights will round Edwards into shape after Danny's recent victory over young Nationalia, one of the leading bantams on the Coast.
Under supervision of Mr. Moore,
"Big Bill" Tate met and easily defeated Frank Farmer last week at Tacoma. Tate, at the time the information came to us, was slated to box Tiny Herman on September 25. "Big Bill" is also tentatively matched for a return engagement with George Godfrey in Los Angeles the latter part of this month or early in October.
Farmers and Cuban Stars in Even Break Sunday
Islanders Turned Back by Hearne After Taking the Opening Contest From Crack Glendale Players
Effective twirling by Elmer Hearne, former pitching ace of the Bridgeport Eastern League Club, gave the Farmers an even break with the Cuban Stars of Havana in their double-header at Farmers Oval Sunday. Hearne allowed the Cubans four hits only and fanned seven in the nightcap, which the Glendalers took by a score of 8 to 4. after Oscal had handed the homesters a 9 to 2 setback in the early contest.
Hen Wiley was easy for the Red Stars in the opener. The visitors shelled the lean right-hander from the mound in the sixth inning and got to him for 11 of their 14 hits. Ferrer, the Cuban second baseman, led his team's attack, bunging out four bingles in five times at bat. Dhigio and Cardenez pooled the longest hits, each getting a circuit clout.
Fabre gave Hearne a stiff tussle in the first four innings of the nightcap, but blew a 2 to 0 lead in the sixth inning. The Farmers getting him for five runs, Loesch, Christ and Haddar starred at bat for the Farmers. The score.

All-Bermuda Team
Loses Cricket Match
Winding by the closest possible margin, by one run and one wicket still in hand, the eleven of the Sussex Cricket Club defeated the All-Bermuda team in the last cricket game of the season at New York Oval, in the presence of 1,500, Sunday afternoon. The All-Bermuda team batted first and was dismissed by 73 for the loss of nine wickets before time was called. The best batting in behalf of All-Bermuda was accomplished by R. Robinson, who ran up a total of 21. W. Paynter and E. Robinson seconded his efforts with 15 and 10, respectively. A. Mayers, of Sussex, did exceptionally fine work with the ball, taking five wickets for 22 runs.
The victory of Sussex was mainly due to the splendid stand made by M. Spencer and R. Allen, who in partnership together put on 41 runs for the second wicket. Spencer stayed until he had 29 to his credit, while Allen lost his wicket after making 24.

St. Paul, Sept. 24.—One of the last remaining char-
acters in the romance of railroad pioneering in the West
became a memory in St. Paul today with the death of Louis
Liverpool, once coachman for James J. Hill, “the empire
builder,” founder of the Great Northern Railroad.
More than a half century ago when Hill was pushing
his lines of steel westward beyond the frontier, Liverpool
was brought from New Orleans to be St. Paul’s first Negro
coachman.
‘The city, then a railroad jumping off place, was
amazed at the first appearance on its dusty street of
Louis, habited in a rich velvet uniform topped with a high
hat, guiding a pair of spirited horses from his proud perch
on the driver’s seat.
For years that same spectacle drew the attention of
St. Paul’s select as Liverpool presided over the perfectly
appointed carriage of two generations of Hills. He was
known to be the only person in town who could interrupt
“Jim” Hill at a directors’ meeting to borrow a quarter.
Louis was recognized from the first as the aristocrat
of Twin City servantdom. But his undying fame was won
|. when the honor of being knocked out by John L, Sullivan,
champion of champions, was conferred upon him.
| The great day come when John L., in the gris oF
his fighting career, visited St. Paul and picked Louis as
his sparring partner in an exhibition match. The coach-
man stayed five rounds.
On the strength of this achievement Liverpool was
made a member of the Police Department to break up one
of the most formidable gangs the city ever had known.
He succeeded and later was made keeper of the city jail.
:But after the great stone mansion at the head of Sum-
mit avenue, St. Paul's Fifth avenue, was deserted and the
Hill family’ scattered, Louis fared badly. Age bent his
massive frame and his only means of livelihood was a
| decrepit team of horses very unlike the charges he had
| driven for “Jim” Hill, Louis called it an “express busi-
ness.” *

Franklin Manager Returns from Europe
Henderson Is Accorded Big Welcome by Dance Lovers at Two Local Casinos This Week
Returning to Renaissance Casino on Night of Oct. 3 to Fill Special Date After Rousing Welcome by Host of Admirers Sunday and Monday Nights
If judged by standards set in the past, it was about time that the name of Fletcher Henderson will continue to act as furore in the dance world, but that Henderson stands in a class all by himself was attested Sunday and Monday nights, Oct. 27 and 28, respectively.
Therefore, it being beyond the bounds of reason to attempt to judge one by the past who has undoubtedly brought new methods to a mode of entertaining which was new when the late Jim Europe was in power, it is fair to assume that the name of Fletcher Henderson ceased to create such a magnet for many days to come.
nix
It was last Sunday night at the Renaissance Casino that his own people took advantage of the opportunity to turn out in large numbers and dance to the music of his celebrated orchestra, and to cap the climax the Bretton Hall noys presented the popular musician and his far-famed aggregation of musical artists before a great course of people at the Manhattan Casino on Monday night. At the latter place, Henderson vied with Eddie Elkins' Club Richmond Orchestra for the honors, and that he more than held his own was evident from the manner in which the people responded and at the conclusion of every dance demanded encore after encore.
Returning to the Renaissance Casino the coming Saturday night, Oct. 3, Henderson will, for this special occasion, occupy the spot usually held by the Saturday Night Assembly. Preparations for the biggest Saturday night entertainment along dance lines at the Renaissance have been made and it is a foregone conclusion that the place will be packed from curly evening.
National Contest Is Sponsored by Keith-Albee
Color No Bar in This Event,
Which Will Be Staged at
the New York Hippodrome
October 19
Broadcasting a promise which
holds out a chance to fame and
fortune to those in the amusement
world and in other activities taking
advantage of the opportunity,
the Keith-Albee circuit of theatres
plans to hold a National Quartette
Competition at the New York Hippodrome the entire week of October 18, the object being to select the best quartette in the country.
Clubs, singing societies, vocal
schools, church choirs, fraternal
organizations, business houses,
schools, colleges and groups of
harmoniously inclined individuals
are invited to enter the competition,
and their quartette may be
designated for the organization it
represents.
Quartettes entering at the Hippodrome are not prohibited from participating at any other Kelth-Albee or affiliated house whose contest is before or after that of the New York Hippodrome.
The winner of the contest here will compete with other winners from other theatres in Greater New York for the opportunity of representing New York in the finals. The Kelth-Albee circuit is sponsoring this National Quartette Contest in each of the cities in which it has theaters. Winners in the various city contests will be entered in song competition, and the victors will participate in the national finals at the Hippodrome in December.
Those desirous of entering the contest or are in any way interested can phone, call or write to Mr. Clinton E. Lake, manager of the Hippodrome, for further information regarding this contest.
"Hell's Highroad" at the New Douglas Theatre
In point of magnificence of production and luxurious atmosphere, few films equal and few excel the Declil DeMille picture, "Hell's Highroad," which will be shown at the New Douglas Theatre Sunday, Monday and Tuesday, October 4. 5 and 6. Leatrice Joy is the star and gives a wonderful performance in a gripping story which deals with a girl's hungry desire for wealth and the manner in which she uses her beauty to attain her concern. But in the final she finds happiness along an altogether different road and settles down with an humble lover. Supporting Miss Joy in one of the finest roles of her career are those recognized screen favorites: Robert Edeson Edmund Burns, Julia Faye and Helene Sullivan.

Popular Manager of Franklin Theatre Back Home After Delightful European Trip
Yearly Pilgrimages to All Parts of the World Keep Manager Eckert Looking Fit and in Good Spirits
In the days before prohibition the last few words in the sub-head above this article would occasion no surprise, hence we hasten to nip any pun thought up by the ever-present jokesmith as this is the day and time of prohibition and the lines, by some, would be taken as indication of the desire for some of our wealthy citizens to seek "other fields of conquest."
The point of the article is that we were real pleased to bid welcome to Manager Eckert, of the Franklin Theatre, who has been playing around Europe for the last few months, and be it said with all the fervor at our command, he is looking the picture of health and contentment.
Mr. Eckert for the past few years has been making trips to various parts of the earth. One year you can find him nosling around in the West Indies; another year he can be found in the Canal Zone lazily enjoying looking at the ships passing through the Panama Canal. Sometimes, in the winter, he hikes off to Bernuda and while we are shivering from the cold breezes he gets great pleasure in sending back post cards of beautiful tropic scenes.
This year he went to Europe and took his time visiting the principal cities of the old world, and before the end of the coming winter we expect he will be hiking it for South America. Mr. Eckart has been in business in Harlem for almost a quarter of a century. With his estimable and genial wife he operated a delicatessen store many years ago on Lenox and formed contracts that in after years made it possible for him to enter the theatrical field minus the hardships which have beset the path of so many entering the game without the least knowledge of colored people.
During the time he has been the owner and manager of the Franklin Theatre he has always sought to give his patrons pictures of the highest quality. He is one of the few white managers who would go out of his way to give a picture manufactured by colored people a chance. While others have shown such pictures in the past and look as pure as picture business pure and simple. Mr. Eckert acts, from our personal observation, as if he considered it a duty.
At the Franklin Theatre he has the assistance of his daughter, Mrs. Ewald, as fine and charming a young woman as ever graced the front of a theatre, and Miss Petronella Bells, for many years cashier at the Franklin. During the absence of the popular manager, these two young ladies hold things down in a manner that adds to the enjoyment which he finds in his well earned vacations in foreign lands. With Louis Sivina, who operated the Roosevelt and Douglas Theatres, Robert Levy, formerly at the Lafayette;
NEW YORK AMSTERDAM NEWS, WEDNESDAY, SEPT. 30, 1925
About Things Theatrical
The withdrawal of Floyd Snelson as one of the editors of the Tattler has brought to light some amusing phases of "fabulous salaries" said to be paid some of our newspapermen.
For the edification of the writer, Snelson last week disclosed a contract calling for his services that would make Sober Sue smile with astonishment and the late Bill Devery exclaim: "Ye Gods and little fishes" at the small figures displayed when voluntary information had been brought to us about the "staggering figure" at which he had been retained.
Which, after all is said and done, far from detracts from the fact that Snelson did make things appear to be booming for his publication in his way and in his own inimitable style which a few weeks ago, upon his own assertion, found him making explanations in the office of the District Attorney, while at the same time recovering from a smack on the back of the neck by some irate reader.
"And the worst of it," said Snelson, "is that I was not to blame, but had to take the brunt of it all because of what is considered my happy medium for shedding trouble. Woe is me. I am off to other fields of conquest as the conditions under which I worked became unbearable." The last we saw of happy-go-lucky Floyd he was seen supervising the removal of a beautiful picture layout from the office of the Tattler to the rooms of the association.
"I am going to run that fellow Dougherty off the Amsterdam News," said one of our friends acting as manager of a certain theatre in Harlem. "He is the bunk. I suspect he would like to get my job as manager, but he can't run a theatre." Well, neither can you, brother, as the theatre over which you have a small need of control practically runs itself. Ha, ha, and how would he put into effect his plan of running us off this paper? By stopping the owner in front of the theatre and asking her to go in and see HIS BOSS as he, the boss, had planned to place an "ad" in these columns, but changed his mind when we said some things Mr. Boss did not like. Dost thou know any more jokes, darling? We forgive you now, but if you keep on telling the performers how much you dislike us we might be tempted to tell our readers how much we dislike you and why. Do you get us? Righto!
The upheaval created by a beauty contest sponsored by a little sheet out in Jamaica reminds us of the unpleasant things said early this past summer when a certain "palm garden" came into full being for one night and simmered and died when premises galore were made to the gentle folk of the little suburban town and not kept anent the appearance of some of our leading lights in the theatrical firmament. The footlight stars failed to materialize, as did the money due us on advertising. After we had been bunked into carrying the "ad" we made it our business to appear on the scene to verify the promises galore and had to come out and tell the folks that none of our performers honored the place with their presence on the occasion for which they were billed. We believe that the popularity of The Amsterdam News can be traced to the fact that all the writers on this paper are moved with the desire of playing fair with their readers, even though it entails the loss of an advertisement from time to time. But we should worry. For every inch of space lost under the circumstances we have been rewarded with ten. So there!
So "How Come" went against the wall out in Chicago. Well, this is what we expected in spite of letters from certain people painting the prospects of the show a roseate hue. The tendency to boost those in the theatrical game without merit but an abundance of good looks were never more evident than in the case of this show. Some time ago, we picked up one of our "leading" papers and to our surprise found a picture of a beautiful young woman who for ages had carried a spear in the back line of every chorus in which she appeared, and she was billed in as beautiful a combination of words as ever graced a newspaper speaking of Florence Mills or some of the other ladies with talent and experience. This young lady we have in mind can neither sing, dance or deliver lines, yet Louis Azorsky will arrive in town with a gang of alibis telling the why and wherefore of the account telling of how some of the folks in the offering were forced to look long and lingeringly towards the railroad ties leading back to New York. And that, as our friend "Look-It" at a certain theatre on Seventh ave. nue would say, ain't all. Beautiful word pictures surrounding a certain show in the making right here in Harlem are going to take on the color of a disconsolate blue within the next few days.
Atlas Association in First Aunnal Affair Oct. 12th
The Atlas Association of New York will stage their first annual dance on Columbus Day night. Monday, October 12, 1923, at the Renaissance Casino, 138th street and Seventh avenue. This affair promises to be one of the outstanding social events of the present Fall season. In looking over the roster of membership we note that the officers of this organization represent some of the most widely known individuals in Greater New York. Extensive plans are being made to add many features at this entertainment that will, without doubt, carry an unusual appeal to those attending, announcement of which should serve to bring out an even larger gatherer than anticipated.
Mrs. Maria Downs, Raymond Snyder and Mr. and Mrs. Regan at the new Lincoln, Mr. Eckert took his place many years ago as one of the theatrical managers in the commercial theater, never tire of welcoming back even though their trips from Harlem be of short duration
JULIUS BLEDSOE
PROGRAMME IN SIX LANGUAGES Glenn Dillard Gunn of Chicago Herald-Examiner says: "His is the finest Negro voice yet heard in the concert halls of America."
Continuous Scene of Activity Planned for Seventh Avenue and 138th Street This Season
The most animated scene of activity on Seventh avenue the entire fall and winter season will be located in the buildings of the Renaissance people, between 137th and 138th streets. If plans now being completed are carried through, and we see no reason why these same plans should not go through.
Mr. Roach and his associates have made arrangements to add to the electrical display, already quite impressive when the theatre is considered and included with the casino, which will vie with the best thing along this line down-on 125th street.
A series of Sunday afternoon dances will be staged at the casino to last from 2 to 6 P.M., with the best music in attendance. At the Renaissance Theatre a special effort will be made to offer patrons of the popular picture house another series of special concerts with the best artists in attendance.
Unlike the music at many of the other theatres, at the Renaissance will be heard special programs in keeping with the pictures instead of the jazz played at one theatre at least, whether it be a funeral or a wild cabaret-scene being shown on the screen. As it cannot, be denied that the best class of colored people in Harlem patronize the Renaissance, this feature which will be improved upon at the Renaissance will carry an even stronger appeal to the thousands enjoying the pictures at this house.

The popularity of the club has in the past done a great deal in bringing out thousands to their affairs and, as this will be the biggest and strongest effort put forth by the members of the club, it is not far fetched to predict that this year will find them adding to their already large list of friends.
The Casino managers are working in conjunction with the club to help make the affair something out of the ordinary. During the past few years the following supporting affairs staged by the Mets reached such large proportions they were forced to secure the spacious and commodious Manhattan Casino. We hope to carry the final details of the plans of our friends in our next issue.
W. K. Varney to Direct Fisk University Quintet
The trustees of Fisk University announce the appointment of Walter K. Varney, of France and America, as director of the Fisk Jubilee Traveling Quintet. This is considered a rather fortunate arrangement, as Mr. Varney is widely known in musical and operatic circles in Europe, as well as in America. It is understood that the new director will take up his duties immediately.
Mr. Varney was recommended to the trustees by Mr. Joseph Ritzer, under whose patronage the singers have spent the last two seasons in London and on the continent, and who arranged for them to appear before the King and Queen of England in June.
Mr. Varney has had a broad and varied experience in the theatrical and musical fields, and brings to his new work with Fisk large managerial ability, and wide acquaintance and contacts with prospective patrons of the Fisk singers.
Members of the quintet are: Mr. and Mrs. J. A. Myers, Mr. H. W. O'Bannon, Mr. Carl James Barbour and Mr. L. D. Collins.

It would seem that the Jama-
page newspaper started some t

contest flashed across the min
For weeks pictures of the contests appeared in the Enterprise and, as quiet as appeared the working up to the fateful night when the prizes were to be handed out, an undercurrent of interest was intense, as many of jamais young damsels, blessed with an unusual amount of pulchritude, had entered, backed by their parents and friends.
Came the eventful evening when the beauties and their many friends assembled at Polish Hall. A dance was to follow the bestowing of appropriate prizes to the winners selected by five judges, good and true, for it was assumed that everybody would be happy at the conclusion, and the lucky winner would rule as befitting a queen passed in a throne by men supposed to know the beautiful among the beloved creatures of earth "for whom Kings have lost their thrones; for whom men have died in the past and will continue to die in the future, etc."
Enter now the little goal of discontent. It is alleged that the judges, after looking over the assembled gathering of youth and beauty, gave out as their opinion a verdict announcing that No. 3 Miss Jagenin Webb, should receive a prize of first prize, winner. The audience, or the major portion of it, as the story runs, which had previously decided to abide by the opinion handed down by the men selected to act in the capacity of archers of the face of Long Isle and beauties, immediately issued the recall and refused to accept the opinion of the august generation on the platform gathered.
In no uncertain terms, we understand, opinions were voiced by gentlemen (2) in the audience that threatened an uprase, and the Enterprise, though enterprising, was hard put to find a way out until John Purnell, well known lem and a resident of the Herriot Park section of the city, suggested that the only way out was to take a hard decide, as a table South American revolution would be the result if the august judges demanded that their opinion be put to the referendum.
Stripping the judges of their power, the matter was then left in the hands of the audience, which immediately declared the action of the judges out of line and proceeded to place another young lady to the fore for first-prize honors, it is alleged. Miss Webb withdrew in fright and consternation. Her mother, Mrs. Aria Webb, militant and standing on what she declared her rights, insisted that she would only accept the opinion of the men selected, as per promise by the newspaper, to say who would receive the prizes in the contest.
The affair ended with the prizes being given to those approved by the audience, which, according to Mrs. Webb, turned the entire proceedings into a popularity instead of a beauty contest. The Amsterdam News representative, deciding the affair was of enough moment to the residents of all Long Island towns, sought out Mrs. Webb at her residence, 15 Vine street, and, in an interview, received an angle of the story we believe worth telling, as the Enterprise, so far as we can learn, has failed to make its appearance ever since the week of the contest.
"I am going to fight this thing for the principle involved, and not because of any desire to appear received or dissatisfied in the matter," said Mrs. Webb. "That day has passed when a newspaper, regardless of how small, can come before the public with promises and fall to livo up to them.
"Five judges were selected to say who were to receive the prizes in this contest. For weeks the Jamaica Enterprise had been advertising a BEAUTY CONTEST and we, were naturally nonplussed when these gentlemen, acting in the capacity for which they were selected, were summarily divested of their power on the night of the affair and allowed the affair to be turned into a POPULARITY CONTEST. The judges said that my daughter won a $20 diamond ring and, unless it forcibly coming from those responsible for the affair, I unhappy to fight it." The reporter, after his interview, made the trip to Merrick Park and fortunate in finding him Purcell, who suggested the move which he asserted. "saved the ring." From what we could

dilem from Mr. Purnell, it is his opinion that Miss Weeb is either entitled to the prize or one equivalent. "We should have enough respect for law and order," said Mr. Purnell, "to ally by the opinion handed down in matters of this kind by the men selected to pass upon those who, in their opinion, are entitled to the prizes." Judges said that this dishonor was prized by the audience housed it and gave first prize to another young lady after it had even decided to resort to this move to stein the unpleasant turn which the entire thing had taken.
"From personal observation and the opinion expressed by many of the people, the judges were to pass upon the matter, and not the audience. Being for yours associated in the Big City with things of this kind, you can readily understand how sorry I am that affairs took the turn they did."

Dr. Cadman Lauds Advance of Race in Church Work

President of Federal Council of Churches in America Says Progress in 60 Years Is Amazing
No other race has made as noble and splendid progress in religious matters in the last 80 years as the Negroes of America, according to the message of President Dr. S. Parkes Cadman of the Federal Council of Churches of Christ in America, delivered last Sunday night at the Nazarene Congregational Church, Herkimer street and Froe avenue.
Dr. Cadman told the congregation, which filled the church to capacity, of some of the work accomplished the recent meeting of the congregation, Presbyterian churches hold in Stockholm, attended by representatives from 33 nations, representing 400,000 Christians, including white, black, yellow and brown. The conference was most interesting in many ways, Dr. Cadman said.
The conference did not waste much time in any of the disputes prevailing in some church circles, such as modernism and fundamentalism, evolution, and the story of Genesis, Dr. Cadman stated, adding there has never been any real quarrel between science and religion.
The human race came from a common origin of God's creative force and all are destined for the same goal, he continued.
"Go back for enough and we all come from one Father, God, and that is the discovery that many people do not like. Having this common origin, there is a common mobility to maintain. The conference is its message said that all man and woman believe were the property of the Eternal God and the Lord Jesus Christ."
A means for uniting was in cooperative service, with harmony among all the people of the earth, regardless of color or creed, Dr. Cadman stated the conference further had developed.
"When the boys were on the firing line, we did not ask about their color. It is not necessary to be a Baptist, Congregationalist or Methodist to be a good Christian. These are only regimental names." Dr. Cadman wound up his address by bringing to the Negroes of the borough the congratulations of the Federal Council of Churches, declaring that the colored people have co-operated with the Council wholeheartedly. The Rev. Henry H. Proctor, pastor of the church, prior to Dr. Cadman's address, declared that the 75,000 colored people of Brooklyn had no better friend than Dr. Cadman, and that Dr. Cadman has no better friend than the 75,000 colored people. Dr. George E. Haynes, secretary of the Commission of Church and Racial Relations of the Federal Council of Churches of Christ, introduced the speaker.
OLEVELAND. O.—Concurrent with the information being circulated by the colleges and universities throughout the country regarding the great increase in enrollment of students, which is being published in the newspapers of all sections, comes the news that the National Secretary of the Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity, Attorney Norman L. McGhee, of this city, has received reports from the fifty-old chapters of that organization that the large enrollment of colored students in the high schools and colleges where these branches of the fraternity are situated is traced directly to the influence of the "Go to High School, Go to College" campaign waged so effectively last May and June by this group.
Interviews with new students made by officers of the chapters, it is stated, disclose that more than 500 students testify that they were inspired to continue their educational training as a result of counsel given in the various meetings held during the 1925 "Go to High School, Go to College" campaign. According to Raymond W. Cannon of Minneapolis, Minnesota National President of the Fraternity and Director of the Education Campaign, these heartening echoes of the "Go to High School, Go to College" campaign which the Alpha Phi Alpha会集 each year since 1926 will quicken the desire of every member of the organization to put over an even bigger campaign in the coming year.

One ton in the basement is worth Two in the mine
That's the reason you should get your Winter's supply of coal now. It looks like another coal strike and it's hard to get coal from the mine when the miners refuse to work.
The coal we have on hand won't last long after the strike starts, so we advise you to place your order now.

Armed With Dime Bank, Man Chases University Student Around the Block
Of Course He Thought It Was a Pistol, But Had No

Armed With Dime Bank, Man Chases University Student Around the Block
Winston Hill, 25, cashier in Tab's Cafe, 140th street and Lenox avenue, who was charged with chasing Richard E. Williams, a Howard University student, with a revolver after giving a party in honor of a group of students at his residence, 672 St. Nicholas avenue, was dismissed by Magistrate, James E. Barrett in the Washington Heights Court, Thursday morning.
A gay party was given in honor of students on August 29 by Hill. The fellows stopped at nothing. They made plenty of noise for their amusement. After the hilarious fete, Hill's brother, who was also in the party, missed his stick pin. Hill testified. The accused man's brother then asserted that all of the fellows had stolen his pin.

The students became indignant and resented the charge by jumping on him. In order to check the violence of the group, Hill said that he took a silver plated dime bank from his dresser and quickly flashed it before them. Williams insisted that it was a revolver, but Hill stuck to his story. Under cross-examination the student said that Hill chased him around the block with the revolver. When Attorney Richard L. Cunningham, counselor for the defendant, demanded that the other members of the party be called to the witness stand, it was learned that they had gone back to school. The court then granted the counsellor's motion to dismiss the case.

369th Infantryman Shot in Both Legs
Because another man offered a check in payment for a drink, it is claimed, Bourrough J. Jackson, 45, attached to the office of Federal Prohibition Director John W. Foster, who was also a customer, attacked the man and later shot the counterman, early Thursday morning. David Tice, 30, the counterman, who is a member of the 369th infantry, was shot in both legs by the same bullet when he ordered Jackson out of the cafe for insulting another man, the police said in their report. Jackson will not be arraigned in court for a hearing until Tice recovers.
Tenants Sue Landlords for Injuries
The lives of tenants in Harlem are in constant danger because landlords will not make needed repairs. This fact was disclosed Saturday when a number of tenants won judgments in the Seventh District Municipal Court against landlords for injuries sustained by them.
A jury before Justice Leary gave Emma Phillips, 30 West 135th street, a judgment for $300. It was against Samuel Malsley, white. The tenant was injured when she tripped over the alleged torn carpet at the second floor and fell down a flight of stairs.
A falling ceiling in the kitchen of her home caused Maude Davis, 226 West 142d street, to be severely injured.

Y. M. C. A. Activities
One of the finest and best club meetings ever held in the history of the Boys' Department of the West 135th Street Branch Young Men's Christian Association was that of the Camp Glenwood Club, conducted last Friday evening. Over 75 per cent of the boys who had attended camp last season gathered in the Association for the purpose of perfecting an organization destined to build up the attendance at camp next season. The singing of the old songs, a short business session and short speeches by Mr. Henry C. Parker, chairman of the Board of Managers; Mr. W. H. Austin, chairman of the Boys' Work Committee, and Mr. Thomas E. Taylor, executive secretary of the branch, formed the major part of the program.
Jerome Douglas, better known as "Doug," sang for the club one of the selections which has always been a favorite with them, Mr Horace V. Davis, one of the leaders, made an offer of a gold medal to the boy bringing in the greatest number of new members during the season. Any boy in the club of the association or in Harlem may now become a member of this club upon payment of a dollar when joining, and monthly dues of 25 cents. This money will be credited to the members' camp period.
Those present at the meeting were: William Briggs, Leon Cole, Mr. H. V. Davis, Jerome Douglas, Oscar Dunham, Earl and John Forsythe, Adolph and Arthur Harris, Dr. George E. Haynes, Lawrence Hunt, Harold and Leroy Jackson, Martin Johnson, Mr. Kenneth Miller, Ralph Owens, Winston Robinson, Eldred Thompson, James Thompson, Charles Towns, Earl Rivers, F. P. Farran, W. H. Austin, Mr. Thomas E. Taylor and Mr. W. C. Anderson, Jr.
The next gathering of the club will be held in the gymnasium on Thursday evening, October 29, at 7:30, at which a regular Camp Fire program will be conducted.

IN THE blessed State of Georgia even the Negro patients in the insane asylum are not safe from the insane mob roaming outside. A violently insane Negro beat one of the white nurses with a club, and she died. Some of the nurses or other employees communicated with the unincarcerated savages on the outside, and a mob of fifty of them entered the asylum and took this insane human out and brutally lynched him.
If one lynching can be more beastly than another, this is the most beastly. In all actually civilized communities such an act of an absolutely insane human is considered an accident, like any other regrettable accident of nature, but not a crime to be punished even by the law. The flends who lynched this unfortunate creature did not even have the humanity to remove him from life as mercifully as possible, but they tried him and brutally beat him to death with these demons, consequently treating this insane man in the same way in which he had musically treated his unfortunate victim. Only he had not been such a coward, for he had not come fifty strong and he had not sanely attacked the insane.
And yet there are supposedly same-men in the great Congress of the United States who do not understand that we need a Federal law to check this beastly thing. Who is it that is insane? That Negro? That moh? Or that type of Congre-samen? Some sensible questions need to be asked. First, why does not the State of Georgia have Negro nurses and attendants in charge of Negro insane patients? No, they give these white men and women the
Organize Branch of N. A. A. C. P. in Staten Island
To aid Samuel Browne, postman, 67 Fairview avenue, Custleton Hill, S. L., and to prosecute M. W. Robertson, white, a real estate dealer who was indicted by the Grand Jury for damaging Browne's property with five other persons, a branch of the N. A. A. C. P. was organized in Staten Island Sunday afternoon.
The meeting was held in the old jail house, 1571 Richmond terrace, West New Brighton. Wm. A. Morris was elected president. Our of 250 persons that were present 100 joined while the others pledged to do so later.
Robert W. Bargall, Director of Branches, assured the newly organized body that it would receive all the possible support of the national body. Since Robertson, who is in a native of Georgia and neighbor of the Browne family, has been charged with being the instigator of several attacks on the postman, the local branch was organized to further protect the property and help prosecute the man.

Dr. Irving H. Cantor, Noted Dentist, Opens an Office in Harlem

Dr. Cantor has achieved wide reputation in other parts of the city as a dependable dentist, who believes in giving a dollar value for every dollar paid. His services and well equipped facilities are now available at his new office, 200 West 135th street. Room 108.-Advt
chance to draw the salaries on the misfortune of this otherwise segregated people. They exploit even the insane for their social economic advantage. If that nurse had been colored civilization would have been saved from disgrace. For the same reason, every Southern State should have Negro policemen in Negro sections, so that when some officer is killed by a colored criminal, the consequences would be the procedure of law against crime and not an attack by mobs against civilization and human decency.
And yet these same salary-hungry hypocrites did their best to force us to accept white nurses and doctors for sick and disabled Negro soldiers at Tuskegee, so that any accident or any lie any time could have aroused these furies of hell. We knew them, as we know now, that those who thus tried to force their "services" on the Negro had no interest in his welfare, but in their own gain.
And yet these Georgia friends were following some what the example of our courts of law. If the reader will reflect, he will recall that almost every day, when some white person has done something violent or antisocial, his sanity is inquired into by the courts and he is often adjudged insane and irresponsible. but such an inquiry is almost never made in the case of Negro prisoners, especially when they have attacked or injured white people. The Negro who wrongs an inmate is all wrong. All insanity belongs to white people. If the truth could get a hearing, most of the very few Negroes who ever do actually commit rape or murder against white people in the South would be judged by a civilized court to be insane.
In this invasion of usyllums and lynching of the insane, the State of Georgia has successfully reasserted its pristine supremacy in this whole beastly business.

Next Sunday Baptism and Holy Communion at the close of the service. All friends are invited to come and worship with the young people. Blahon G. I. Blackwell was the preacher in the main auditorium. His sermon was the most informing and inspiring. He called the roll of the fathers of the church, including the blahops, ministers and laymen, who had laid the foundation and made it possible for us to enter this good heritage. The church was crowded, every available seal being occupied. At the close of his discourse twenty-five persons were received into the church.

METHODISTS VOTING
ON AMALGAMATION
CHICAGO. Sept. 23.—The vote of Methodists on amalgamation of the Northern and Southern branches today stands 12,000 for and 952 against.
This includes more than half the Northern conferences and less than half of the Southern. At the Northern Methodist headquarters here it was announced that the Northern vote favors amalgamation. The October conferences must be awaited to show definitely the nature of the Southern vote. The Southern church requires a three-fourths vote to accept amalgamation. The Southern vote is 837 for and 400 against. This includes very few conferences in the old South.
The Northern total is 11,168 for amalgamation and 552 against.
Abyssinia Purchases Home for Its Aged
The *Abyssinia Baptist* Church has purchased a home for its aged members on St. Nicholas avenue, between 146th and 147th streets. The location is the best in Harlem, and it is considered the finest home yet purchased by Negroes in New York City. It is built of limestone, all the floors are parquet, and it is heated by hot water system. It has a frontage of 30 feet with a ten-foot driveway and a stone garage that will hold two cars. In the rear is a lawn 20@30 feet which will add much to the enjoyment of the inmates during the summer months.
The *tittle* will pass January 29, and possession will be taken, on May 1.
No announcement made during the 117 years of Abyssinia's history stirred the congregation to greater enthusiasm. When Dr. Powell, during the delivery of his sermon Sunday morning, made the announcement that he would applaud and many were for joy. D, Edward Smith, whose office is at 188 West 135th street, was the broker in the transaction.
Civil Service News
(Prepared by the New York Academy of Business.)
The Municipal Civil Service Commission has at last set the date for the receipt and close of application blanks for the 2d Grade Clerk' examination. Candidates may get their application forms at the Municipal Building, Room 1400, after Wednesday of this week. Applications for this test will close on October 15, at 4 p.m.
The United States Civil Service Commission sets October 28 as the last day for filing applications for its General Clerical test. The examination will take place only in November.
The last eligible on the State Clerk list has been appointed. This examination took place early in the year and the list was established in March. 1925. It contained the names of 646 persons. It is apparent from this that there will be another examination for Clerk in the state service very soon.
The mental test for Court Attendant will be held before the physical test. It is estimated that there will be more than 3,000 persons examined for this examination.
More than 200 persons were certified for positions under the Municipal and the State Civil Service Commission during the past week. This shows the vast increase in the number of civil service workers from week to week.
Examinations for the following positions are being held each month by the United States Civil Service Commission for workers in the New York city district: Junior Typist; Junior Stenogrampher; Telephone Operator; New sender Boy and Girl. Make application at the Custom House, New York City.

Then I began to use Exelento Skin Soap on my face and the results were equally amazing. All bliemishes disappeared and my face became soft, smooth and beautiful."
Exelento Quinine Pomade and Exelento Soap may be obtained for only 25¢ each at all drug stores or will be sent, postpaid, upon receipt of price.

Say Victim Is "Character"
Warren Russell, 22, alias Arthur
Alken, Arthur Abbot, and Bernard
Russell, said to have a criminal
record in three states, was arrested
on suspicion by police in South
Orange last Thursday, and it is
alleged that the arrest turned out
to be the capture of a long sought
law breaker.
Russell arrived in South Orange Thursday and went to the home of Leo E. Firth, a member of the South Orange Field Club, living at 151 S. Orange Ave. He inquired bell, where he could find a Mr. Hunt, and was directed across the street to a boating house run by Mrs. Harry Smith. Subsequently Mrs. Harry saw the man wandering about the living room. He said he wanted to find Mr. Hunt, but the man was passing the Riggs place on his machine, he claims he saw Russell hurking behind a tree. When the police returned a little later Russell had disappeared. A bystander stated that he had jumped into a tentacle and ordered bell, where he could take him to the Lakawanna Station.
Hustening in pursuit the police man caught Russell juss as he was boarding a train. Russell insisted he was innocent of wrong-doing. He had met a Mr. Hunt, he said, at the Pulitzer Building and talked with him about radio sets and had come to South Orange to try to call Hunt a radio call. Treated by Detectives his record proved, so police stated, that Russell had been arrested in Fassale in 1921 and had served time in the Rahway

Miss. Governor Denounces Mob
JACKSON, MISS., Sept. 28—The time has come when the law abiding Christian people of Mississippi should assert themselves in no uncertain terms against such mob action and should rally to the support of the peace officers in maintaining the integrity of the law, said Stevenovern in a statement issued the day following the lynching of J. P. Ivy at New Albany.
"Officers charged with the responsibility of protecting criminals should resort to extreme measures in thwarting a mob," continued the Governor. "Had the Governor received notice of the crime in a case, he gave the police a port to the shuffl in the prevention of so horrible a crime against the law. I want every peace officer in the State of Mississippi to know that as long as I am Chief Executive of the State every possible help will be extended to them in the enforcement of the law. I will put pennalties to vindicate the laws of the State and see that those laws are executed. I hope the court officials will not hesitate to perform their duties in the case under discussion, as well as in like cases that have occurred or may occur in the State." Mississippi law the Governor is powerless to interfere in a local situation unless state aid is asked for by the county authorities, nor has he any power to inflict penalties on county officers who fail in their duty.

Negro Rabbis Contend They Are Real Jews
(Presion News Service).
CHICAGO, Ill. Sept. 28.—According to a report circulated here last week about Jews stranded in the city to attend the services held in the Temple of the Gospel of the Kingdom at 1850 West Lake street here and were amazed to hear two Negro rabbis declare to the congregation of several hundred that they alone were the real Jews.
A few weeks ago this congregation came into public attention when Mrs. Elizabeth Miller was brought to trial accused of soliciting funds under false pretenses. It is said that at that time Rabbi David Lazuras and Rabbi Canoi Sifnum appeared in court in aid of the woman and their cause. It is reported that so convincing was the argument of the rabbbi 'the girl was released and she and her friends continued their work among the people of Chicago.
Segregation Fight Spreads in North
Segregation Fight Spreads in North
The fight on residential segregation is spreading throughout the North according to reports received and published by the National Association for the Advancement Colored for the North. A revenue there was a riot in Philadelphia, and now Harry E. Davis, member of the Ohio Legislature and of the N. A. A. C. P. Board of Directors, forwards a report showing that an organization has been formed in Cleveland from a white residential district.
The fight in Cleveland is being made to bar Dr. C. H. Garvin, a colored physician, from occupying a house he is having built on Wade Park avenue. Two hundred white property owners recently organized against his occupancy of the house he was having built.
One white attorney, Frank P. Gentesch, of 1104 Wade Park avenue, N. E., near Dr. Garvin's property, has said he will have sold G. W. Willa, a colored man present at the meeting:
"I want you to know that you will never live in the Wade allotment. Furthermore, you can save to Dr. Garvin that he will never live in the house that he is building on Wade Park avenue." Dr. Garvin is reported to have said in a press interview that he had built a home in which he was building a home in which he intended to live and that the property was not for sale at any price.
WASHINGTON, D. C. Sept. 28—Judge Hochling, in releasing James Bostick and James Sample, against Robinson, said that the indictments against Sample and Bostick were untruth.

An Opportunity Cast
to the Winds
THE TWENTY-FIRST Assembly Dis-
trict is entirely devoid of Republican
leadership in the colored end of the dis-
trict. Numbers of men call themselves
leaders and some of them may think
themselves leaders, but this does not
make them leaders. The little men who
call themselves leaders and who, in
party councils, claim to represent the
intelligent Negro voters in the district,
should step aside and let some man or
woman, with a spark of manhood in
them, work unselfishly for the political
advancement of the voters.
THAT THE men and women who cal!
themselves political feaders of the
Negro voters in the Twenty-first fall far
short of the mark was clearly demon:
strated last Tuesday night when the
—Ceunty Committee met to elect an Exec-
utive Leader, For the first time in his-
tory Negroes, because of their voting
strength, had an overwhelming major-
ity of the County Committee. A Negro
candidate, Charles W. B. Mitchell, was
nominated and supported by the Ap-
pomattox Republican Club against Rob-
ert S. Conklin, a white man. Conklin
has held the reins for five years.
THE WHITE County Committeemen
supported Conklin unanimously; the
Appomattox Club supported Mitchell, but
three other groups, led by John Clifford
Hawkins, of the Bradhurst Republican
Club; Mr. and Mrs, Richard E. Warner
and “office hungry” George W. Harris,
refused to support Mitchell and re-elect:
ed Conklin.
UNANIMOUS WHITE SUPPORT FOR
THE WHITE CANDIDATE AND DIVIDED
NEGRO SUPPORT FOR THE NEGRO
CANDIDATE, Why?
SIMPLY because the Appomattox Re-
publican Club, which had the largest
number of Committeemen, did not see
the wisdom of advancing a stronger
candidate and because the other so-
called leaders did not wish to run the
risk of losing their jobs or their stand-
ing with the present leader. Conse+
quently, the opportunity to elect a Negro
Executive Member was lost.
TO TAKE ADVANTAGE of the oppor
ity to elect a Negro Executive Member
oi the district is not so much a question
of race as it is a question of justice and
fair play to the majority of voters in the
‘district. We saw no reason why Conk-
fin should not be elected Leader of the
district, so long as the majority of Coun-
ty Committeemen were white, and we
look upon it as a calamity that Negroes
failed to avail themselves of the same
opportunity when it presented itself to
them. In his selfish desire to get back
into the good graces of a man he bit-
terly opposed last year when it suited
his purposes, Harris even made a glow-
ing speech for the re-election of Mr.
Conklin.
} WE REPEAT that it is significant that
the white. County Committeemen voted
as a racial group the same as they al*)
ways do, while our spineless leaders
fought for themselves,—divided- thelr
votes and re-elected a white man to lead
a Negro majority. It is also significant
that Pope Billups, Assemblyman, and
Theodore B. Smith, Aldermanic ca
didate, were conspicuous by their
absence. |
WE ADMIT that Mitchell was possibly
the weakest candidate that could have
been put up, but this does not excuse
any of the leaders ior failing to support
him, or put up a Negro they could |
support. Under similar circumstances
we are sure white factions of any
race would have been able to agree
on one of their own, Failing in this, it
would seem that the next best. thing
would be the election of another white
Leader who, from the beginning, would
owe his allegiance to the Negro major=
ity and who would most certainly do|
more than the present Leader to solidify |
the various elemants in the district for
the benefit of the party. . instead, we
have the sorry spectacle of Negroes
voting against themseives and against
the advancement oi their race along po=
litical lines. |
NO MATTER what we may-think'of Mr.
Conklin personaliy, he is certainly not
the man for’ the office, because he has
jailed utterly to advance the interests
of his Negro constituents and for some
unknown reason has seemingly little or
no. power in the larger councils of the
party. Comparatively speaking, the ap-
pointmerits he has se-ured. ior loyat
Negro constituents have been so mea-
ger that they are hardly worth mention:
ing. On top of this the best office com-
ing to the district he'has annexed bim-
self, Mitchell's Leadership could not be
as bad as Coni:lin’s for the Negro
masses.
ELECTED primarily by a white major:
ity in the County Committee, Conklin’s
only hope of reteining his Leadership.
now that the color of the majority has
changed, is in keeping the Negro Lead:
ers fighting among themselves or curry:
ing favor with him in the hope that they
will be appointed or retained in some
petty job, or designated for some elec:
tive office.
NEGRO REPUBLICAN voters in the
Twenty-first A. D. must come to the re=
alization that they do not need white or
Negro Leadership of the kind they arc
now getting in that district and that
they have the power to change it.
Murderers Photographed Even
WE ARE GLAD that the New York
Evening Journal published photographs
of the burning alive at the stake of J. D.
Ivy at Rocky Ford, Miss., tor it mirrors
American civilization more clearly than
anything which could have been written
about it and caused even a white south-
ern newspaper editor to voice his
doubts as to Caucasian supremacy in
the iollowing words:
“We have not yet emerged from the age of bar-
bariam. Unilias there comés out af these crimes: and
all other crimes in which men take the laws under
which we live into ther own hands the swift and
sure punishment that siiould come, we cannot really
claim to be civilized. We have the veneer ‘of ety.
{Mzation and the coatings of culture and the lux
uries of modern invention, but if we condone these:
erimes against society we have the primary instincts
of the brute and the savage.”
ANOTHER PURPOSE served by the
publication of the photographs is
the refutation it gives to the lie general-
ly sent out by the press that the guilty
parties are “unknown,” because in the
photograph one sees not only the bound
victim of the mob tied to a stake, but the
faces of the merciless murderers.
MERE WORDS, though, will not stop
lynching and, as the government repeat-
edly shows its indifference to stop it,
Negroes everywhere must begin to con
sider effective methods to stop it or die
in the attempt. |

Mr. Bannister. How strange! It this be true the

different from any other corporation in ‘America.

men want to gét more Wages, better hoitrs, pay for

Mr. Bannister cltes the fact that the porters started

(From the Cleveland Herald.)
With increasing frequency the metropolltwn press
‘of the country proceeds to saddle crimes upon
members of our race, which crimes, subsequent de-
velopments have proved, were Committed by whites.
This has not happened once, nor only in the South.

Only a few months ago the New York press trie!
to fasten the brutal murder of the Kane girl upon
fa Negro. A number of colored men Were arrested
and helt on charge of suspicion, for investigation,
No evidence, however, has as yet been uncovered
to indicate that any of these men were guilty. More
recent was the attempt fo place the kidmaping an!

to which a wealthy white boy hus since confessed.
And now comes the effort to identify Henry Horn,
a colored man, as the midnight marauder who ter-
rorized the city of Nashville for two weeks. Al-
though the mnrauder is claimed to have worn a
mask, there are those who say they recognize)
Horn as the man. Horn insists that he is innocent.
Walter F. White, Assistant Secretary of the Na-

People, urges members of the race to protest to
newspapers against the policy of playing up alloge:]
Negro crime, and, if such papers insist on exploit-
Ing the Negro, to boycott them. This appeats to
be tho most effective way in breaking this practice.
Tt has been tried before with good results and it
will be no doubt work again.

Constitutional Weakness
N THESE days of modern competition, stress, financial
] burdens, high rents, oversexcitement and jazz, the con-
stitution of an individual is a very important item in
his or her general makeup. It is the deciding factor as
to whether the person shall be well and happy or sick,
unhappy and distfessed. What, then, is this vital factor
called “constitution”? It is something inborn. It comes
down from parent to child. Some call it temperament.
It may show itself in infancy, at boyhood or girlhood, ur
present itself finally at adult age. “Because ol this con-
stitution ‘same people became sick easily. some become

USING RADIO
WASHINGTON.—-More than
550,000 farms in the United
States are now equipped with
radio, the Department of Ag-
ricuiture estimates, following
a nation-wide survey through
county agricultural agents. A
simflar survey last year showed
365,000 farma on which there
were radio sets. The rapid in-
crease is due to the need of
prompt market information, to
the educational value of radio
and to fts entertainment fent-
ures.
