Evolution in Baltimore
THE evolution mania has gotten as far North as Baltimore, and Johns Hopkins University proudly announces that twenty "sure-nuff" monkeys are on their way from the Himalaya Mountains of Asia to Baltimore, where an exhaustive attempt will be made to find out for once and for all the real truth about the origin of man. Several white scientists, who have charge of the experiment, will keep records of the habits of the monkeys, together with their births, deaths, parental instincts and social relations, and the monkey colony will be carefully compared with those of man. Perchance the monkey charts and mortality statistics will be introduced as expert evidence when the Scopes case comes from Tennessee for final adjudication.
Not being very well acquainted with Asiatic monkeys, we do not know just what they will do under the restricted environment which will be carefully shaped for them at Johns Hopkins University. We are venturing to suggest, however, some activities which we firmly believe they would not engage in even though they were given a chance.
We are confident they would not become consumers of bootleg liquor nor do we believe they would join a lynching party, though they can find some excellent instructors on this side of the ocean. While a trained ape is very intelligent, we are convinced that one would never develop sufficient thought to recognize color distinctions. If a monkey were highly trained, we don't believe he would refuse aid to an injured man as was recently the case in Memphis, Tean.
We certainly wish the Johns Hopkins scientists great success in their experiments and trust that they may achieve results which will be of use to the scientific and utilized world. But we would like to add the hope that Johns Hopkins may, too, add a class of twenty colored scholars to its medical and other departments for careful study and observation and opportunity.
Such an evolution as this, we
surely believe, would be of
the benefit, particularly to the
the Negroes and the
Nation, to all of whom the

White Elevator Boy Hit on Head
White Elevator Boy Hit on Head
Maid Resents His Attempt to Make Her Use Basement Entrance
Receiving the insults of a white cleaner boy and a janitor, Rachael Miller, 25, who is employed as a maid at 2065 Grand Concourse, near West 15th street, broke a soda water bottle over the boy's head Friday. She was arrested and arrested in court Saturday.
Although the charge against her was dismissed because the complaint John Boyson, the elevator worker, failed to appear in court, the jury state attained the insults of the men by instructing the woman to only the basement entrance to the house.
The man, who has always entered and left the building by the first entrance, was informed by the elevator boy that the entrance was for white people only. She got the elevator at the fifth floor and instead of stopping the lift at the first floor the boy went down to the basement. He then demanded her to get off. An argument followed. When the janitor came upon the scene and attempted to hold the elevator boy in putting her off she picked up a bottle which was nearby and hit him on the head with it.
Snatched Bag of Change in Subway and Ran
Charged with snatching $22 from the 11th street subway station exchange booth, Arthur J. Wright, 186 West 12th street, was held in $1,600 bail by Magistrate Simpson in Washington Heights Court on Monday morning.
J. B. Thompson, agent at the 11th street subway station, testified that Wright took a bag of money out of the booth while he was stealing the chain for a women to enter. He said that he saw Wright snatch in the bag and run. He followed the accused man and his cry for justice attracted a crowd who in the chase, Wright snatched and dropped the bag, and he was overtaken several blocks away from the station. It was sold.
FIRES FATAL SHOTS WHEN ATTACKED BY WHITES
One of Pair Had Followed and Struck Him Following Automobile Collision To Plead Self Defense
MILWAUKEE, Wis., Oct. 12. As a result of a hotel argument and an altercation, Lawrence Buicholtz, a white truck driver, is dead, his companion, Jennings Siegfried, also white, lies almost at the point of death from gunshot wounds and the Reverend Edward Thomas, a minister, is being held on a charge of first degree murder.
The fight had its origin when a car in which the minister was riding collided with that of the truck driver and his companion, who were also accompanied by a woman. According to reports the collision was unavoidable and no serious damage resulted therefrom, but that Bucholtz became incensed and cursed Rev. Thomas. Pursuing the doctrine which he preached, the minister did not reply, but drove on. This further angered Bucholtz and he followed the minister to the home of Mrs. A. Fews and when the Rev. Thomas alighted the truck driver struck him in the face. Siegfried rushed up to join in the scrap and Rev. Thomas pulled a revolver from his brief case and shot Bucholtz in the forehead and chest and Siegfried in the abdomen. He was wounded himself in the hand during the struggle.
With the smoking gun still in his hand the minister went into the house of Mrs. Tews to dress his wound, leaving his attackers lying in the street. The woman companion of the two white men called a taxi cab and took the men to Emergency Hospital, where Bucholtz died.
Rev. Thomas is highly respected in Milwaukee and the vicinity. He is a member of the Sane Fourth Commission appointed two years ago by Mayor Hean and is active in civic affairs as well as in the progress of the members of his race. For several years he has conducted a night school in the Lippham Park Community House for Children who were unable to attend the day sessions. Friends of the minister of both races feel that he will be discharged when his trial comes on a plea of self-defense. --- (Exchange.)

No Bail for Boy Who Shot Mother
Had Remonstrated With Him for Not Finding
Theodore Samuels, 21, 130 West 134th street, who is charged with striking his mother, Mrs. Lottie Ruffin, a hairdresser, over her head with a hammer and then shooting her, was held without bail by Magistrate Vitale in the Washington Heights Court Tuesday morning for a further hearing Thursday.
The condition of Mrs. Ruffin is slightly improved, it was reported from the Harlem Hospital. She is suffering from a gunshot wound in the scalp and a severe gush caused by a blow with a hammer.
The police learned that the accused youth had been out of work for several months and had made no attempt to secure a job. Last Monday night, the police said, Mrs. Ruffin and her husband had a talk with Samuels and told him he would have to get work or get out of the house.
After a two-day search following the alleged attack, Samuels was caught by Detectives Turney and Scott, attached to the 135th Street Station.
Charged with burglary, William Mitchell, 20, 2102 Madison avenue, and Benjamin Haywood, 27, 24 West 134th street, were arraigned before Magistrate Simpson in Washington Heights Court, Monday morning and were held for a further hearing. The men are accused of entering a delicatessen store at 561 Lenox avenue, owned by Xenous Paris, and taking $60 from the cash register Sunday night.

WHITEPLAGUE DEATHS ON INCREASE IN HARLEM
Fatalities Four Times as Great as Those of White Persons in N. Y. City, According to Assn.
A statement issued yesterday by the New York Tuberculosis and Health Association directs special attention to the tuberculosis problem among Negroes in New York City, which is affirmed to be an increasing one, in volume at least, if not actually at a higher rate in the relation to the total number of these residents.
"In 1924," says the statement, "600 deaths from tuberculosis among Negroes were noted, as against 353 in 1923. Of these, 318 were of the male sex and 282 of the female sex. The present Negro population of New York City, on the basis of the 1920 Federal census, is now estimated at more than 180,000; and, if this figure be accepted, the death rate from tuberculosis in 1924 among Negroes was 352 per 100,000, while that of the remaining population, practically all white, was only 35—a ratio of four to one, as against the usual ratio of three to one in the past.
"Born among Negro men and women the largest number of tuberculosis deaths occurred in the younger age groups of 20 to 25 years. Negroes now furnish one tuberculosis death to every nine such deaths occurring in New York City, though they probably number one in thirty of the general population."
As regards the general situation in this city, in respect to the "white plague," the Association points out that among the 5,557 deaths from this disease, last year, 2,287 were of the female sex and 3,300 of the male sex, according to the Bureau of Records of the New York City Department of Health. Tuberculosis killed, as usual, more men than women, the death rate of females having been 76 per 100,000 and that of the males 110, or 45 per cent greater.
The highest tuberculosis death rate among women occurs at present among the younger groups—namely, those between 20 and 25 years of age. The rate in that group was 119 per 100,000 living. The highest tuberculosis rates among women are all noted between the ages of 15 and 30. Among men, the highest tuberculosis death rate was between the ages of 55 and 60 years. Comparatively, high rates in the latter sex prevail anywhere between 10 and 60 years of age.

Smashes Furniture of Girl's Employer
Mad Lover Held for Grand Jury in $1,500
Because his sweetheart jitted him, Johnson Jones, 31, 2400 Seventh avenue, broke into the apartment where his former sweetheart is employed as housekeeper and full of the furniture and apparel belonging to the owner of the apartment.
Jones claimed that he had bought beautiful clothes for Nora Clegg, 25, the housekeeper for Alexander Giddens, 10 West 136th street, and that she was scorning him because of another man. Giddens is an electrical engineer.
The accused man was held in $1,500 buil by Magistrate Vitale in the Washington Heights Court Tuesday morning for the action of the Grand Jury.
According to the police, Jones broke into the apartment of Giddens Monday afternoon. He destroyed all of the woman's and Giddens' clothes and damaged all of the furniture.
Miss Clegg said that she wouldn't have anything to do with Jones because he was a married man. She denied that she had accepted money from Jones last Thursday.
Because Giddens was involved in the case, Magistrate Vitale said that he would have to send Jones before the Grand Jury.

Move Believed Certain to Handicap Republicans in Election, as Voters Show Distrust of Present White and Negro Leaders --- "Sop" Also Thrown to Three Other Negroes Who Supported White Man in Preference to Negro for Leadership
By far the most important development in political circles in the 21st Assembly District, where Negro Republican leaders combined with white County Committeemen to defeat the election of a Negro as Executive Leader of the district a few days ago, is the announced designation of George W. Harris, of 135 West 135th street, defeated candidate for the party designation in the recent Primary Election, as Associate Executive Member of the district, with Robert S. Conklin, white, Executive Member. The designation of Harris, who was characterized a few weeks ago as the most "office hungry" man in Harlem, is sure to handicap the Republican party in the November election, for, aside from the fact that he deserted Charles W. B. Mitchell, Negro candidate for Leader. Negro voters are compelled to question the motives of a man who seemingly supports Negro candidates only when it suits his purposes and who so willingly lays aside his armor when he sees something for himself in the offing. Needless to say, his purposes are best served when he himself is a candidate. Such an attitude may be human, but it is certainly not divine.
Noel Must Stand Trial for Murder
The trial of Harrison W. Noel, white, son of a Wall Street lawyer, for the murder of Raymond Pierce, taxi chauffeur, is scheduled to begin Monday, October 26, before Judge E. C. Caffrey in the Court of Common Pleas, Newark.
All efforts to prove that Noel, who escaped from a private sanitarium for the insane, a few days before he killed Pierce, is not responsible for his act, were fruitless and the former college student must stand trial for murder in the first degree.
Noel also confessed that he kidnapped and murdered little Dorothy Daly, the day following the Pierce murder, but when he goes to trial next Monday wee's, it will be for murder of Pierce, the Daly murder having been committed in another county.

Because of his supposed insincerity and what Conklin himself, a little over a year ago, called his "selfishness," Harris has continually lost his influence in the district, and it was only following the recent Primary that he realized how improbable it is for him to be elected to any office.
As soon as this realization came to him he set about to make his peace with Conklin, in the hope, it is believed, that he would be eligible for some appointive position at the hands of the white district leader. His actual influence in the district is less than that of John Clifford Hawkins and Mr. and Mrs. Richard E. Warner, the latter also designated as Associate Leader, who, like Harris, voted for the re-election of a white man to lead a Negro majority.

FORMER ROOMER ACCUSED OF THEFT
On a charge of petty larceny, Edward Gray, address unknown, who appeared to be about 18 years old, was held in $500 ball for Special Bessels when he was brought before Magistrate Simpson in the
Washington Heights Court Monday morning.
The charge against the youth was made by Frank Whitters, 16 West 123rd street. Withers testified that Gray lived in his home until last March, when he dis appeared. At the same time one of his suits, valued at $25, disappeared.
PULLMAN PORTERS URGED TO BE LOYAL
Special Assistant Attorney General Charges Brotherhood Is Supported by Bolshevists.
WASHINGTON, D. C. Oct. 12. — Charging that efforts to organize the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters are inspired, directed and fostered by Communists, who have no regard for government. Perry W. Howard, special assistant to the Attorney General and Republican National Committee, urged Pullman porters to remain loyal to the company and not allow themselves to be intrigued into a radical labor fight, which has for its ends the embarrassment of capital in the United States and the production of chaotic conditions as now obtain in Russia.
Mr. Howard is himself a former Pullman porter. He has just been retained by the Pullman Company as one of its general counsel. His work for the Pullman Company, he explained, will not interfere with his duties in the Department of Justice, where he has been engaged for more than four years in defending railroad suits brought against the Government. He said that he has no intention of serving any of his present connections at this time, political or otherwise. "It was only after the most careful consideration that I accepted the offer of the Pullman Company," he said, "and was persuaded to do so by the larger opportunity of serving the race which presented itself."
While in Chicago last week, he stated, starling revelations were made to him, which thoroughly convinced him that the movement to effect an independent organization

tion of Pullman porters has in its background communistic influences. It was because he was unwilling to see the Pullman porter become an agent of communism in this country that he became associated with the Pullman Company, he declared. "I am conceived," he said, "that Socialists and Communists are fostering the movement to form a radical labor union among the Pullman porters, not to help the porters, but to bring about a condition that will inure to the benefit of ultra-radical labor."
Mr. Howard expressed the opinion that there is nothing in common between the American Negro and the class of persons receiving their orders from Moscow. He believed, he said, that the economic salvation of his race is in the goodwill of the capitalists and that attempts to create ill-will between them are for the purpose of exploitation. He points to the fact that the Negro is barred from membership in practically all labor organizations.
He said that "the Pullman porter has no just grievance that in due course will not receive the proper consideration. Machinery for the settling of labor disputes between the company and its employees as to hours, wages and conditions of employment is already set up. The porters are given representation.
and their present organization, approved by the United States Railroad Labor Board, is functioning. I can see no need for further organization and certainly nothing can be accomplished by any new organization except the collection of joining fees and membership dues. "Thero can be no increase in wages at this time. In the first place, Pullman porters receive reasonable pay for the work done and their earnings certainly amount to more than a living wage and afford them even some of the luxuries of life.
"The question of wages of all persons engaged in the railroad transportation industry was recently passed upon by the United States Railroad Labor Board and the Interstate Commerce Commission, and the salaries of all employees, except Pullman porters were reduced approximately 121% per cent, while the Pullman porters received an average increase of approximately 121% per cent.
"Before the wages of the Pullman porter can be increased again, the wages of other railroad employees must be increased. That is the decision of both the United States Railroad Labor Board and the Interstate Commerce Commission. And wages cannot be increased until there is an increase in the earnings of the railroad companies. Besides, the public is
demanding cheaper transportation in both passenger and freight service.
"To meet the demands which the leaders of this movement tell the porters they will make and be granted would cost the Pullman Company $12,000,000 a year. The reports on site with the Interstate Commerce Commission show that the net earnings of the company last year only amounted to $8,000. 600. It cannot be done without bankruptcy.
"Such a situation would cause the Pullman Company to look about for cheaper labor. In that event, Filipinos are available and white men in the guise of trainmen would not be averse to accepting their places.
Digressing from the economic viewpoint, Mr. Howard touched upon the religious and charged that 'in their creeds and dogmas the Socialists and Communists, who would disturb agreeable relations between the Pullman Company and the Pullman porter, deny the existence of God, and adherence to them or their doctrines will deplete the new and reader useless the pulpit, making a race of atheists as can be found only in desolate Russia.' He concluded that "the time has come for someone to speak out plainly and in the language of common sense. If we throw away the
opportunities and friends we have made in the past fifty years chasing after mirages, it is going to work untold injury upon our future. Let the Pullman porters hold what they have and cleave to the worlds they know rather than to flee to those they know not of. I urge every common sense man in the employ of the Pullman Company to let the wild-eyed, long-haired, leather-lunged, starving botshevists and communists go on their way."
Pickpockets Given Long Prison Sentences
Two men who admitted before a jury and Judge Canable in the Bronx County Court that they were pickpockets were sentenced to from four to nine years in Sing Sing, Friday morning. The convicted men. Jasper Robinson, 22, 101 W, 130th street, and Everett Thredgil, 22, 61 W, 134th street, offered an unusual defense. They contended the charge brought against them by John Ellis, 425 W, 53rd street, was because they beat him to a "job" when he was attempting to pick the pockets of a man asleep in a subway train. Ellis testified that he was on his way uptown to visit friends and fell asleep in a Jerome avenue subway train. When he got off at
16th street and Jerome avenue, he inquired as to how to get back to 155th street.
An unknown man, he said, volunteered to show him the way and, as he was led to 167th street and River avenue he discovered that Thredgill and Robinson were following him. Thredgill, Ellis testified, threatened him with a knife, while Robinson took $15 from his pockets.
FOR FURTHER HEARING
Alfred White, 32, 71 West 135th street, who is charged with petty larceny and violation of the Sullivan law, was held in $1,500 ball for a further hearing in the Washington Heights' Court on Thursday. White was arrested on the complaint of William Brooks, 450 St. Nicholas avenue. He charges White with stealing $20 from him at the point of a knife.
Given Long Sentence
At Own Request.
Because he is without a home and is crippled, William Winston, 57, who was found guilty of soliciton alms and vagrancy by Magistrate Weil in the night court, Wednesday night, asked that he be sentenced to prison for the longest possible term. The court sentenced him to six months in the warehouse.

No Marks of Violence on Body—May Have Fallen to Death While Intoxicated.
An unknown man about 35 years old was found dead in the bottom of a dumbwaiter shaft in the basement of the tenement house at 200 East 86th street late Saturday evening. No clues as to the cause of the man's death have been found. The dead man was 5 feet 8 inches tall and he wore a gray cap, dark suit and a brown overcoat. Detectives of the East 104th Street Sta-
tion believe he had been dead five days.
Mrs. Mary Powers, white, janitor of the building, who lives on the ground floor, became suspicious when the strong wind of Friday night sent an odor up the dumb-waiter shaft into her apartment, but she did not investigate until the next day.
The dumb-waiter, which is at the top of the shaft, has been out of order since last July. Mrs. Powers said, and the shaft is never used by the tenants. The door of the basement has no lock, and anyone can enter from the street.
Mrs. Powers called Policemen Halligan and Nelson of the East 104th Street Station, but a preliminary search of the dead man's clothing revealed no mark of identity.

the man, under the influence of alcohol, wandered into the house to sleep, and, opening the door of the dumbwaiter shaft, fell to the bottom, where his body was found tightly wedged.
There are twelve families in the four-story tenement house.
The body was removed to the morgue, after Medical Examiner Norris had viewed it.
INDEFINITE SENTENCE FOR AUTO THIER
Admitting that he stole an automobile valued at $2,000, Samuel Obig, 34, 372 W. 127th street, was sentenced to the state penitentiary for an indefinite term by Judge Cohn in the Bronx County Court, Thursday morning.
According to the police, Obig stole a sedan from a garage at 159th street and Park avenue. He was arrested by an officer after he collided with another car a short distance from the garage. Marcia Davis, 36, 302 D. 151th street, who is awaiting sentence in connection with the same crime, were at the time employed by the garage.

In the same communication Harris charges that Conklin opposed the recognition of qualified colored men and women for party office and that his age-long policy has been to "divide colored people and thus rule them."
In the latter he has succeeded, for the present at least.
This is the same Conklin Harris now finds himself in complete accord and for whom he made a glowing speech week before last when Negroes had it within their power to oust him.
Turn now to Conklin's estimate of Harris as late as November, 1923:
CONKLIN'S ESTIMATE OF HARRIS
"I do not know just what Mr. George W. Harris has been charging me with in his newspaper, since I have not seen any recent copies. It has at times been necessary to deny some of the charges that he has made against various Republican candidates, but I have never been concerned as to what he might say about me. The first I knew of Harris was about four years ago, when some of us who are active in Republican matters were looking for some representative citizen to present as the party candidate for Alderman in the 21st District. The district lines were then different than they are at present, and included part of the present 22nd District. Harris was comparatively unknown, but was urged as available as a Harvard graduate, and editor and high class citizen.
"After considerable difficulty, Mr. John Bolles (of the 22nd) and I succeeded in persuading a majority of the County Committee to support him, and he became the party nominee. After strenuous efforts we succeeded in electing him."
"ALLIED WITH TAMMANY AND SELFISH" when he has had the support of more than one or two of the hundred and fifty members of the County Committee from our district. The objections which his party associates have to him, so far as they have come to my attention, are that he has refused to act with his party in the Board of Aldermen, that he has failed to support other local Republican nominees, that he has been an adherent of and has supported Hylan and his unsavory 'gang', that he is allied with Morton, the Tammany Hall representative in the colored district, that he is extremely selfish and declined to do anything at any time for any Republican save those in his own club, and has sought to encourage and capitalize race hatred for his own advantage.
"BOOTLICKER"
"Personally I have had comparatively little to do with him, since I find it difficult to deal with that type of citizen who comes fawning and smirking and bootlicking to a political leader in private, denouncing and sneering at the men of his own race who have not had the advantages that he has had, and, in public, however, makes a great flourish of political bravado as an alleged independent and poses as the persecuted champion of that race.
I have had comparatively little difficulty it find it difficult to deal with comes fawning and snuckling a political leader in private, denouncing of his own race who have what he has had, and who in public flourish of political bravado and poses as the persecuted charm been so addicted to misrepresent it necessary to refuse to see him of witnesses. In both 1921 and public advertisement of the policy of the County Committee to so derman without interference in leader, Harris besieged me night at the club rooms to override as he described the County Committee their orders' and force his mind to do so. was nominated in 1921 he lost large majority and was elected given to him as a Republican in 1923 he succeeded by his slander public candidate, Dr. Harding, on. he might be said about Harris, or inclination to review his ree year that if he could secure any the County Committee member good I would be glad to hear members, however, have bitterly been my policy to play the paris on a reluctant conference." claimed, had only five of the out of the 150. Mr. Conklsider his present purpose conference."
"He has been so addicted to misrepresentation that I have found it necessary to refuse to see him except in the presence of witnesses. In both 1921 and 1923, when I had made public advertisement of the policy of allowing the members of the County Committee to select the candidate for Alderman without interference in any way by the District Leader, Harris besieged me night and day at my office and at the club rooms to override those 'tools and bums', as he described the County Committee, and to 'give them their orders' and force his nomination. Of course I refused to do so.
"When he was nominated in 1921 he lost the colored districts by a large majority and was elected only by the loyal support given to him as a Republican by the white districts. In 1923 he succeeded by his slanderous attacks upon the Republican candidate, Dr. Harding, in defecating him for election.
"Much more might he said about Harris, but I have neither time nor inclination to review his record. I have told him each year that if he could secure any substantial support from the County Committee members from his own neighborhood I would be glad to hear of it. The committee members, however, have bitterly opposed him and it has not been my policy to play the part of a 'boss' and force Harris on a reluctant conference."
Harris, it is claimed, had only five of the County Committee with him out of the 150. Mr. Conklin has been requested to reconsider his present purpose of forcing him upon a "reluctant conference."
By their own statements one of them is certainly unit for leadership in the district, and since they have now agreed to "lay down together," the intelligent voter will be distrustful of the motives of both of them.
CONKLIN'S CHANGE OF FRONT.
Forgetting Harris' supposed selfishness and his "fawning and smirking and bootlicking" proclivities, Canklin in his letter motives Harris of his reward, wrote that:
"It appears to be advisable that you should be designated as an associate member of the Executive Committee of the Republican County Committee from the 21st A. D. It is essential that the representative from the colored section be one who can command popular support.
"You are qualified by education and experience to present the views of the colored people in party councils. If it be agreeable, therefore, I shall advise the secretary of the County Committee of your designation. Your associate will be Mrs. E. Hortense Warner." While the designation of Harris as associate leader is in truth an empty honor, because it carries no part of a vote in executive meetings, as is enjoyed by other leaders of racially mixed districts. It is contrary to the ruling of the Executive Committee of the County Committee, as explained by Conklin himself, because Negro members of the County Committee were not

consulted or permitted to make a recommendation of even the associate leader. This is probably due to the fact that the majority of the Negro members would again designate Charles W. R. Mitchell, who was recommended one year ago by the Appomattox Republican Club and whom Conklin, czar-like, refused to recognize after designating him. Under date of June 25, 1923, Conklin, announcing the decision of the Executive Committee to appoint Negro associates, wrote that "At the meeting of the Executive Committee of the County Committee, held June 21, 1923, a resolution was passed authorizing the Executive Member from the 21st District to designate one colored man and one colored woman to act as additional associate members of the Executive Committee. I have therefore designated Dr. Charles H. Roberts and Miss Sadie F. Wright as such associate members.
"When the County-Committee is elected at the coming primaries it is my opinion that the members from the election districts east of Edgecame avenue should hold a conference and express their preferences for such associate members, AND THAT THE EXECUTIVE MEMBER CHOSEN FOR THE NEW TERM SHOULD BE GUIDED BY SUCH PREFERENCE IN MAKING HIS DESIGNATION." The above was signed by Conklin himself. The recommendation of Mitchell as associate member had the approval of the majority of the Negro members and he was designated by Conklin, who later refused to deal with him.
OTHERS REWARDED.

John Clifford Hawkins, the other two political leaders, who supported Conklin in the election. A third person is to be appointed.
Thus a white man has amply rewarded the four political leaders who made it possible for him to retain his power in a district where the majority of voters and the majority of the members of the County Committee are Negroes.
Fruitless Conference, Held
News has come to The Amsterdam News that a conference for the purpose of deciding on a leader for the 21st A.D. Republicans was held in the office of John Clifford Hawkins, of the Bradhurst Republican Club, 2313 Seventh avenue, prior to the re-election of Conklin, but that the conferences were unable to agree on a Negro candidate.
This conference, it is understood, was attended by Dr. Charles H. Roberts, Charles W. B. Mitchell, Hamilton J. Travis and William A. Cornell, all of the Appomattox Club, and Mr. Hawkins.
Mr. Hawkins is said to have agreed in principle that a Negro should be elected, but refused to suggest Mitchell, giving as his reason that he was not qualified, and urging that the Appomattox Club, which had about 44 of the county committee, put up a substitute not identified with any of the factions at loggerheads with each other.
This, it is further claimed, the Appomattox representatives refused to do.
Seen Monday, Mr. Hawkins refused to deny or affirm the report. He also refused to make a statement on the designation of Harris as associate leader or state whether

Mrs. Bethune Speaks at Vassar
Mrs. Bethune Speaks at Vassar
Mrs. Mary McLeod Bethune, president of the Daytona Cookman Collegiate Institute and of the National Association of Colored Women, passed through New York last week en route for Poughkeepsie, where she was invited by President McCracken, of Vassar College to speak before the student body and to be the guest of the college during her stay. Vassar is one of the most renowned institutions for the higher education of women in America, and Mrs. Bethune was invited by Dr. McCracken as a recognition of her leadership among the women of the race and of the place she has made as an educator.
Mrs. Bethune, who spoke to the Vassar students last Friday evening, received a great occasion, and as the result of her vis problems confronting the col secured.
Mrs. Bethune told of the struggles and aspirations of the Negro women of America, and of their marvelous progress in business and the professions.
"All the Negro woman of America want," said the speaker, "is a square deal and a fair chance the great race of Life. She wants in chance in training, in education, in living conditions and in the affairs of American citizenship."
Continuing. Mrs. Bethune said: "The Nero woman needs for her refinement and training the same opportunities of manhood and womanhood need. She asks for her children the same chance for development of manhood and womanhood that is needed for all other children of the world. Mrs. Bethune told of how the colored women of Bologna moved to every movement making for the growth of the nation. It is believed that the visit of Mrs. Bethune to Vassar, which has long been one of the most exclusive institutions for the higher education of women, has great deal for the social education of the student's relative to race relations. While in Penssakeejee Mrs. Bethune spoke at a community meeting. She spoke of an incheon last Tuesday at St. Luke Hall, under the auspices of the Citizenship Department of the Empire State Federation of Women's Club. Mrs. R. H. Leankin

Food for Children Who Travel
Many times, and especially during the summer months, mothers are forced to take their children on trips with them. During these trips the parent is forced to contend with that ever-present and serious problem of food for the child.
As in almost every other case, the chief source of worry during these periods is the milk supply its source, its purity and its food value. It is not always convenient to get market milk of dependable quality for it; many sections of the country adequate facilities for its care are not provided. To meet the needs of mothers in these trying situations, science has provided a form of milk, conveniently carried and easily prepared. The cans are in two sizes, the one containing six ounces and the other 16.
Evaporated milk is just pure cow's milk with more than half of the water removed. None of its food value is lessened; in fact, its digestibility is improved. It is easily mixed with water and is, undoubtedly, the most practical form of milk for use as a food for children. Some of the country's leading pediatricians recommend its use employing the following formula: For Six Week to Third Month, Milk evaporated . . . 6 ounces Lime water . . . 3 ounces Milk sugar . . . 2 ounces Boiled water . . . 28 ounces Seven feedings in twenty-hour hours; 4 to 5 ounces at three-hour

British Subject Flogged in N. C.
Gov. McLean Orders Inquiry Into Case at Consul's Request
(Preston News Service)
GREENVILLE, N. C., Oct. 12. Acting upon instructions from Governor A. W. McLean, Solicitor Jesse Davis was in Greenville Tuesday afternoon, on route to Farmville to make a rigid investigation of the recent flogging administered to Dr. S. J. B. Collins, a physician at that place, by a ooded range.
Dr. Collins, who is a British subject, was said to have been instructed by his assailants to leave the town but instead he appealed to the British consulate in this country and on Wednesday Solicitor Davis received a message from the vice consulate in Wilmington urging a thorough investigation. According to rumors dropped here and there by whites, known to be members of the Ku Klux Kan, it is claimed that Dr. Collins goes about among his Negro friends and in fact wherever possible and makes many expressions of an insulting nature with reference to the recent Ku Klux Klan demonstrations staged at Farmville.

Bishop Heard Opposes Klan
Advises Ministers Against. Receiving Tainted Money From Anti-Negro Body.
ASBURY PARK, N. J., Oct. 12.—"It is not the policy of our Church, especially in this district, to take any donations whatever from the Knu Khux Khan." Thus apoke Bishop Heard during the closing hour of the great Educational Chautauqua just closed here. The utterance was significant not alone because of its decisiveness, but because it was made. In the presence of hundreds of ministers and laymen from all parts of the Northeast, from Boston, Mass., to Dover, Delaware.
The discussion was provoked by Rev. W. A. Flamer, who is pastor of an A. M. E. Church in Middle Pennsylvania. Rising to a question of personal privilege Rev. Flamer said, "I have been approached several times, both in my present charge and in the one I had previous to my coming to my present charge, and asked to permit the Ku Klux to hold meeting in my church and give a donation. I refused to permit them to come in their regular. But many of my people protested to my excluding the Ku Klux because they had money and my church heavily in debt."
Bishop Heard without hesitation stated they should not. "We should do nothing, however little, to show we favor the Klan," said he. "How could they expect us to favor them when they are opposed to us? Before they bring us their money let them take away their opposition to the Negro. And again, they go about in towns and hoods, covering their faces. Nobody knows who they are. We don't want to have these people so clothed in our churches. We want to see the people we preach to. We do not want to have any group of masked men come to us. As a practical question, I know there are many communities where the Ku Klux Klan is so strong as to almost wipe us off our feet. But we must stand for a principle."
Three men were held for court on charges of murder by a coroner's jury Thursday after investigation of the death of Walter G. Gantt, aged 49 years, while acting as overseer at the recent election. Oliver Odgen was charged with the killing, while Fred Squires and Lee Shelton are charged with being accessories to the killing.

SIX
Colored Champs Ready After Working Out at Local "Y" for Season's Games
Many Well-Known Stars in Line-Up of Bronx Men Coming Here to Tackle Colored Players
Basketball will make its bid for another season of popularity and success the coming Sunday night when the crack Renaissance Five trots out to defend their honors as colored world champions against the Bronx Stars, an aggregation of white basketball players known to fans all over the East.
While we in these parts imagine that the October start is early, the white players have already been active on the courts and are coming here fortified with three victories already. This will insure one of the best games to those making the trip to the Renaissance Casino. Among the players on the Bronx team are such fine players as Harry Davis, Rube Ford, Jordan Sert, Smolok and Rakib. The latter player considers one of the best players in college basketball and captained the team of the College of the City, of New York. The games will start promptly at

Darby Team Wins Fifth Game in Sixth and Retains Championship
A powerful Hildale team, seenting victory, swept aside the Kansas City Monarchs by a score of 5 to 2 at the Phillies' Park last week and captured the colored world's series, five games to one. A crashing attack that wouldn't be beaten gave the barbarians runs in 11, fourth, ninth, sixth, and seventh innings and the title was brought live with a rush. Pill Cookrell, Hildale spitball artist, gained his first victory over the K.C. fourth. Last season in the series he was easy for the Monarchs and in the present series the one game won by the Westerners was that of October 2, in Kansas City, with Cookrell the losing pitcher.
Cockrell held the Monarchs secure until the second innings, his speed and skill, backed by the splendid support of his teammates, checking effectively the grim effort of the Monarchs to fight through to a victory that would mean at least another chance at his success. Hilldale went into the lead in the fourth. With two out Cilin Thomas double to right field and scored on George Johnson's ringing shingle to the left garden. In the fifth an error by Moore placed Warfield on the paths and Mackey sent his captain across the plate with the second run of the game when he doubled to right field.
Again in the sixth an error paved the way for further Hilldale scoring. Joseph fumbled Cockrell's crouner to third and Philip scored on Steven's two-bagger to right field. Briggs's sacrifice sent Steve along to second and Warfield drove him home with a single through third and short, giving Hilldale a 4 to 1 lead.
The traditional Monarch flight came to the form in the seventh when Newt Allen singled, went to second on McNair's sacrifice, stole third and scored on Hawkins' single through Judy's territory.
The fans in the stands forgot the cold when Mackey opened the Hilldale seventh by driving one of Bell's curves over the right field fence for a home run. This drive marked the end of Hilldale's scoring for the series. In the ninth successive doubles from the hats of McNair and Moore gave the Monarchs their second run and errors by J. Johnson and Stevens filled the bases with one out. But Foreman, sent in to bat for Swett, stunned ingloriously. W. Bell fell out to George Johnson in the final act of the series drama.
BASKETBALL STARTS HERE SUNDAY NIGHT Hilldale Again Cops E. L. Championship
will furnish the music every Sunday night, the same as they do for the Saturday night affairs which will continue under the same management all winter.
Manager "Bob" Douglas has succeeded in signing up some of the best team in the county for the Sunday night games, and with the regular Saturday Night Assembly going, the Renals' dance forces will be kept pretty busy all this season.
SUPERIORS STARTING NEXT
MONTH.
Brooklyn will usher in basketball at Labor Lyceum next month when the crack Superior Athletic Club offers their basketball team as the attraction in a big affair on November 3. On this occasion the team will hook up with the Yankees Big Five, which gave the Brooklynites a hard tussle last season, losing by only one point to Superior.
Fletcher Henderson's Rainbow Orchestra will furnish the music for the dance which will follow the game. The Superior Club basketball team holds the distinction of being the only good colored team now operating in Brooklyn.
Snakes Getting Ready
The 16th Infantry "Snakes" will blow the lid off of the basketball season at the armory the first week in November. Only honed fide members of the regiment are eligible to play, but the soldier boys are in hopes of another successful season.
Games will be played on Saturday nights of each week.

Currie Again Held Kansas City Players in Check
Thousands of Enthusiastic Fans Out to See Hilldale and Monarchs in World Series Crash
PHILADELPHIA, Oct. 9. Rube Currie, talented right-hander of the Hilldale pitching staff, held the Kansas City Monarchs in check for the second time in one week and Hilldale won the fifth game of the thrilling colored world's series by a score of 2 to 1, before 9,000 wildly cheering fans at the Phillies' Park on Thursday, October 5. The game boosted the Darbyles' stand in the series to four games to one and narrowed the chances of the gallant Westerners to a virtual 100 to 1 shot. It also served to strengthen Currie's position as leading Eastern hurrier, as it was Rube Currie himself who went to the mound in the opening game of the series in Kansas City and humbled the Monarchs on their home grounds.
In the course of Thursday's battle here Curtie allowed seven hits and fanned four, while his team gave him almost perfect support. Hildale got to C. Bell in the fourth, when George Carr, hard hitting first sacker, coming up with one out, sent one of the Monarch hurler's curves soaring over the right field fence for the first run of the game and incidentally the first circuit clout of the series. Mackey followed him with a crashing double to right field and scored on Clint Thomas's double in the same sector.
This tragic fourth inning marked the end of Bell's usefulness to the K. Cs for the day. He started the fifth, but successive singles by Stevens and Carrie put him in bad at the start and Dean was rushed to the mound to attempt to stem the Darby tide, with one out and two perched on the sacks. Out of this hole Dean emerged on a fast double play when Dean fielded Briggs' grounder, doubled up Curle at second in time for Allen to throw Briggs at out first. Monarch's lonely lady came in the Monarch's doubles by Allen and Moore, but after that session a double by Duncan in the seventh was the only hit that Curle allowed.
Carr, with three hits out of four times at bat, and Duncan and Thomas with two hits out of three
trips to the plate, led the batters
in a game that was featured by
hard but not abundant, hitting.
Hain prevented the playing of
Friday's game.

Howard University Defeated Livingstone College Last Saturday Afternoon
Visitors Sprung Sensational Aerial Attack, But Washingtonions Were Prepared for This Plan of Battle
WASHINGTON, D. C.
Oct. 12. Defeating the much-tooted Livingstone College aggregation of Salisury, N. C., in a fast and exciting game before a large crowd on the University Campus, the Howard "Bisons" on Saturday. Oct. 10, won their second consecutive victory of the season by a score of 21 to 0. The aspiring "tar-heelers" had just left the South with laurels dangling about them on account of the 18 to 0 victory over Hampton Institute, of Hampton, Virginia, and had boasted that they would uphold the gridiron honor of the South by scoring on the "Blue and White" boys of the National Capital
The "Bleons" playing a brand of football far superior to that of last week against Morgan College took the boys from North Carolina into camp by a 219 score. The "Bleons" made the Livingstone line look like paper, ripping their way through the Livingstone line almost at will for five, seven, and ten yard gains, totaling in all fourteen first downs against three made by Livingstone. The Howard boys scored a touchdown in every quarter except the third.
Livingstone opened up with an aerial attack in the second half which tailed, as Coach Watson's boys had profited by last week's shortcomings against Morgan. Don thrown broke through in the first half for a twenty-five yard run and Tyron repeated in the last quarter for twenty yards. Dokes, captain of last year's team, Smith, and Campbell were repeatedly seen to make clean tackles, thwunting every attempt to break through the Howard line, "Tick" Smith, halfback, was hurt on the second play after his substitution for Dodson.
The look from Solisbury, N. C., were unable to withstand the powerful attack of the Washington boys and on their offensive they made only three first downs to Howard's fourteen. Weeden fullback of the Livingstone eleven played a sterling game for his team.

The game will be 250 points, 125 each
evening of the 19th and 20th.
Beginning Wednesday, 21st.
Edward Hornesen, 18.2 balke line billiard champion of Belgium, who finished second to young Jake Schaffer in the last World's championship tournament, and is now rated as the world's most dangerous contender for the World's 18.2 balke line title, will be in action. He has a high run record of $18. It is seldom that in any block of 300 or 500 points, that he fails to make runs of from 150 to 200. He will play this handicap exhibition match at the C. A. B. P. Assen, against Marcel Leoemput, 1,500 to 900 in blocks of 400 to 300. This should whet Mr. Hornesen's appetite for Schaffer. This also will be his first match since returning from Europe and promises to bring out the best billiards he's capable of, for Leoemput is not easy pickings for any of our American stars. He finished second in the last championship held in Paris the past summer, against Darrartiere. He has a record of an average of 55 in a thousand point game, high run, 437. This is fine billiards for

All billiard room owners should give their most hearty cooperation to this supreme effort to interest, stimulate, and educate

Friends of Olga Jacobs Insist She Was Entitled to First Prize
People Clamored for Her and She Was Given Award Advertised by the Jamaica, L. I., Enterprise
The New York World, no later than Sunday, carried an interesting account of the aftermath of the Atlantic City Beauty Contest, showing that the lucky winners seemed to have a hard time escaping the glamor attendant upon being chosen as the most beautiful from the section of the country each year. When charming little Olga Jacobs and her mother, mother of relatives in Jamestown L. I., not so very long ago, she did not know that she would be the innocent cause of an uneavail that bas, up to, this writing, left the social elite divided.
Through friends Miss Jacobs was entered in the Beauty Contest of the Jamaica Enterprise. On September 11. at the Polish National Hall in the same town, scores of people who had turned out to witness the picking of the prize winners and the presentation of the prizes clamored and stumped the affair in her behalf, and in no uncertain terms decided that she is pretty enough for first prize honors in most any contest. Miss Jacobs was awarded first prize after the judges had picked another young lady, and in spite of the turn of affairs commented upon in another part of this paper, the consensus of opinion is that she won "hands down." Miss Jacobs is the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. James I. Jacobs; of 2009 Fulton street, Brooklyn, and a niece of Dr. F. M. Jacobs. At

New Book of Negro Spirituals
(From The New York World.)
At last there appears a satisfactory edition of Negro spirituals. It is called "The Book of American Negro Spirituals," and it has been edited by James Weldon Johnson, Secretary of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. Only one who has waded through many hitched editions can appreciate the intelligence with which 'this book is put together. Mr. Johnson has selected his songs with discrimination and had them decently printed. With the aid of Messrs. I. Rosamond Johnson and Lawrence Brown he has recaptured authentic harmonies, as much a part of the complete effect as the melodies. And he offers in a brief introduction a more plausible explanation of the origin of this music than all the learned commentators since the Civil War.

Johnson Knocks Out Bennett in Second
Sunny Jim Williams Making His Eastern Debut Against Lou Bogash Saturday Night
It was our boon Saturday night companion, Henderson Huggins, who looked wise and acted like a man with inside information when we invaded the sacred confines of less McMahon's "Palais de Swat" last week-end to view the fisticis dish supplied by the genial manager.
Henderson opined that the fur would fly in the seminal event of the evening, which brought together John Lester Johnson and Ray Bennett, the latter substituting for Carl Carter. It would seem that Huggins had the misfortune to run into Minnie Tattler a few minutes before he entered the Commonwealth Club.
Miranda, so posed all-wise when it comes to things physical, gave Henderson the inside dope on Mr. Bennett and predicted that Ray would put up a better fight against John Lester than Carl Carter. Well, if Carter isn't any better than Bennett then he might as well, like Martucci, take the first boatboat and fade away.
It ever a man felt the sword of Damuelles hanging over his head it was Ray Bennett. He was almost a nervous wreck when John Lester, coming down the aisle from his dressing room, repeatedly stopped on his way to the ring to greet his many friends. John wore a smile as if he had things sewed up and acted like it. When he entered the arena he walked over and shook hands with Bennett, who gave a correct limitation of a victim going in slaughter. Nervousness was painted in the colors of the rainbow all over Ray, and there for even a one-eyed man to see without blinking.
The bell that started the fighters on their way must have sounded like the cruck of doom ringing out to Bennett. He crouched low and came out to absorb some mighty socks from John Lester. From the first good sock Ray knew he was a beaten man. He made many trips to the canvas and, while recining thereon was saved by the bell. He came out in the end to again go to the canvas or helplessly trying to withstand the tide of John Lester's safely blows which soon had the breakmute out for keeps. From the way John Lester shaped up we online that many of the white lips will again take to their winter creams and stay therein until assured that John Lester Johnson will be matched to meet them.

HOSAY ON THE SHORT END.
After going to the bat for our Brazilian friend, Jose DeCosta, Hosay had the misfortune to run into many good rights and lefts sent his way by Italian Jack Herrman up in Yonkers last Thursday night.
The Italian made things so hot for Hosay, and had the Brazilian looking so bad, had they to stop the daughter about the fourth round, the fourth round, while it lasted. It was a holocaust while it lasted, and now Hosay will have to start all over again before getting that long cherished chance at the Commonwealth.

The second ten will be an international affair between Ernie Jarvis, the English flyweight champion, and Black Bill, of Cuba, Much has been sald of Jarvis since his arrival here several wakes ago, and Bill should put him through the well-known acid test.
The first ten-rounder will bring together Tommy Milton, the Harlem flyweight, and Jimmy Russel the Brooklyn Bearcat.

Sons of North Carolina
Judging from the interest being displayed in the coming 30th anniversary of the Society of the Sons of North Carolina, one of the oldest benevolent organizations in Brooklyn, a record crowd will fill Arcadia Hall, Holsey street and Broadway, on the night of Thursday, Oct. 22. Besides the address that will be made that night by Senator Calder, a splendid short musical program will be rendered by recognized race stars. Dancing to the strains of a 15-piece orchestra of Van Dyke Players will provide a fitting climax for a memorable night to the people of Greater New York in celebration with the Sons of North Carolina.

About Things Theatrical
They are still telling funny jokes down on Seventh avenue.
The latest is that "bon mot" to the colored brethren of the colored newspaper/world: "Well, gentlemen, you have no one else but Dougherty to blame for not getting 'an 'ad' from us."
When the millennium comes perhaps the dear boys will fall for this line of stuff. Our friend the manager is also kidding one of us by saying: "You see, your 'ad' is the entering wedge for the boss to start an advertising campaign."
To those of you who are wise to the fact that it takes advertising to carry a newspaper, it is evident that the Amsterdam News continues to serve the interests of the largest number of people: Just look us over and see if we are on the bricks because Mr. Boss has witdrawn his advertisement from these columns.
The truth of the matter is that the three colored publications getting advertisements from this theatre we have in mind should rise and THANK DOUGHERTY. They are only advertising in an attempt to prove us all wrong. Mawruss — all wrong in our charge that the "Big Manager" could never see colored newspapers. This game of running around to all the colored newspapers and asking for their support, when you are about to take charge of a theatre is "old stuff."
What ho, my worthies, the going seems to be pretty hard for the colored mitt-pushers these days. Estridge, Tiger Flowers, Lawson, Panama Joe Gans, Kid Norfolk and the rest of the stars have faded since getting the short end of the fistic arguments and it is about time for the belated "come-backs." Of course, the Keed is entirely out of the running and even Jack Dougherty is willing to admit that the time is ripe for him to bring Larry Estridge back to the Commonwealth.
With Paul Robeson making the English sit up and take notice and Garland Anderson arriving with "Appearances" for Broadway, our end, theatrically speaking, is apparently being held up in these dog days of musical comedy. Not a big musical comedy show in sight, with the possible exception of the rejuvenated "Chocolate Dandies," which returned to Gibson's Dunbar Theatre in Philadelphia WITHOUT the fifty-thousand-dollar guarantee. The appeals to the colored people of Philadelphia to return and see the same show at cheaper prices were indeed amusing.
Quite a fuss was created recently in New Jersey when the charge was made that the Orpheum Theatre, the only house of its size playing the big musical comedies when they come along being managed by a Negro despite the promises made by a certain New York theatre, is being operated solely for Negroes. Nothing to it. White folks always find a warmer welcome in colored places of amusement than is the case when colored people show a tendency to visit places run by the whites.
We rise to ask our readers to look over the offerings at the various theatres appearing in these columns and give them as much support as possible. A white concern advertising in a Negro newspaper is making a direct appeal to our people and in the meantime supporting a business employing many of our own. It also shows a desire upon the part of the advertiser to give our newspapers the same chance they would give to the whites were in sections thickly populated by people of their own race. It is also a mark of confidence in these organs, which are the only medium through which the Negro can speak.
At Mrs. Downs' New Lincoln Theatre you will not only find some of the best pictures, but a vaudeville bill equal to that of any colored theatre anywhere in this broad United Land. The Franklin, Douglas, Roosevelt and Renaissance Theatres are offering features in pictures that should appeal to the most exacting. You do not have to go to Broadway to see the best motion pictures. The managers at these houses are fully alive to your wants and take pains to save you the trouble of having to leave Harlem to enjoy the best in pictures. The Renaissance Theatre will soon be offering midnight features that should pack this popular little house. The slogan of The Amsterdam News is to SUPPORT THOSE PLACES WILLING TO SUPPORT OUR PEOPLE. If you happen to be in New Jersey and within striking distance of the Orpheum Theatre, go to it as often as possible and let us nail the lie that there are no Negroes intelligent enough in this neck o' the woods to manage a big theatre catering to its own people.

MASQUERADE
THE LINCOLN THEATRE.
Comedy has a different meaning to various people. When "The Ten Commandments," which is coming to the Lincoln Theatre, was shown in the New York State Penitentiary at Sing Sing; the subtitle which drew the biggest laugh from the prisoners was this: — "If I go to prison, I want company." Anyone who pretends to an understanding of the psychology of humor can figure out that one.
THE FRANKLIN·THEATRE.
George Larkin and an exceedingly well-balanced and capable cast are at the Franklin Theatre, commencing today. Wednesday, in a modern picture play described as a comedy-melodrama and entitled "The Right Man."
"The Right Man" is a newspaper story. There is a Star Reporter—played by George Larkin, well-known in these, and other parts as a "stunt" man. There is a Managing Editor, played by that olly, wily villain, Jerome La Gasse. There is the publisher of the paper, a well-meaning gentleman whose wife is not as true to him as she might be. The publisher is nably portrayed by Roy Lustloff and the wife by vampish Olive Kirby. And, adding the comedy without which a picture, to our own modest way of thinking, is not what a picture should be, is Milburn Morante, whom you may remember in the Universal Joker Comedy Company or in the old Keystone-Triangle Company.
THE DOUGLAS THEATRE.
Very often do our people reach the heights of musical - comedy stardom, but seldom do they reach the enviable position that Evelyn Preer holds in the history of dramatic art. An actress of rare ability, and intelligence. Miss Preer was selected by David Bellasco as his only colored star.
She appears at the New Douglas and Roosevelt Theatres, Sunday, Monday and Tuesday, October 18, 19, 20, in Oscar, Micheaux's greatest production, "The Devil's Disciple," ably supported by the popular Lawrence Chennault, Percy Verwayn, and an all star colored cast. The picture is really the first story of Negro night life in Harlem over brought to the screen. Every scene is taken in this locality and every one will recognize the hundred one landmarks that are familiar to the viewer. The story centers about a beautiful but vain girl who falls in love with a degenerate. She determines to reform him, but fails miserably, and is in turn dragged down and down. Besides being intensely gripping and dramatic, the picture contains a good moral lesson for our stage struck sisters.
RENAISSANCE THEATRE.
For this Thursday and Friday at the Renaissance Theatre the management film "A Fool and His Money" that richly romantic story of a young writer who, had always
Lincoln Giants Hit Hard and Win Two Easy Games
wanted a real castle and got it when he least expected it. The story, by George Barr McCutecheon is a particularly good one, and with Madge Bellamy, William Haines and Stuart Holmes playing the leading roles, it is excellently portrayed. "The Street of Forgetten Men" will be the attraction at the Renaults Saturday, Sunday and Monday, October 17, 18 and 19. Percy Marmont, Nell Hamilton and Mary Brian are featured in this picture, which is an adaptation by Paul Schofield of George Kibbe Turner's Liberty Magazine story by
Lincoln Giant and Win Tw
Defeat Bayside Team and Then Shut Out the Much Touted All Stars by 7=0
The Lincoln Giants won two abbreviated ball games at the Catholic Protectory Oval Sunday afternoon. They defeated the Bayside team in the first game by a score of 7 to 2 and then gained a 7 to 0 victory over an All-Star team. The second game was called at the end of the fifth inning on account of darkness.
Jack Quinn, veteran spitballer of the Philadelphia Athletics, was scheduled to pitch for the All-Star team, with Gordon Cochrane as his battery mate. But neither Quinn nor Cochrane had received permission from K. M. Landis to play in the games so the veteran; although he was at the field, and in uniform, could not pitch against the Negro team.
A young fellow by the name of Sweeks took Quinn's place, but had nothing at all up his sleeve. Chambers held the All-Stars to one hit and struck out six.

It is an underworld romance laid on the Bowery in the late 90's, in the days when a big glass of beer cost five cents and a free lunch went with it. Some of the streets were considered quite dangerous then. The story has a gripping moral and a touching pathos as well as its bits of comedy. "The Street of Forgotten Men" is the kind of lingering picture which every movie fan as well as every person in Harlem seeking an instructive as well as entertaining picture should see.

Brooklynites Startle Raid of Detective
Preacher's Wife Alleged to Paramour When Operative in Quiet Neigh
At about 11 p.m., Thursday nearly everyone was fast asleep and the milkman, the neighbors early avenue were treated to a oing to pay any entrance fee. T of several operatives from the Agency. Rev. Samuel A. Jone unions and Mrs. Nellie A. Jones
Those who occupied the front seats of the show were Mr. J. Lovewell and his wife and several roomers. Those who occupied the rear seat and the overflow meeting consisted of the good neighbor, in the immediate vicinity of Mrs. Waverly avenue. At about 11 P. M. a woman shoted, and in five minutes afterward, Mrs. Nellie A. Simmons were dragged downstairs, half naked, into the parlor of Mrs. Lovewell, the landlady, who was too surprised to talk.
The Rev. Samuel A. Jones is pastor of St. Paul's Wesleyan Church, on Waverly avenue, Brooklyn. Mrs. Nellie A. Jones is his wife. Both of them were living together up until Thursday at 367 Cumberland street, Brooklyn, for several years. They were married 14 years ago in New York. There are no children. Mr. Simmons is a porter at 42 Wallabout Market. About a year and a half ago he was a lodger in the Jones home. Simmons afterwards to toodge with the Lorewells, at 421 Waverly avenue, and moved with them about two weeks later to 426 Waverly avenue. After Jones claimed that whom Simmons was a lodger at his home in Cumberland and street he had reasons to believe that he was overfriendly with his wife and asked him to leave, over the objection of his wife.
He further stated that, after Simmons had left, from time to time reports reached him that his wife was seen with Simmons at Summer resorts, plenics, country outings and theatres. He further alleged that Simmons was even in the habit of passing in front of his house and making signs to his wife, after which the lady would disappear to parts unknown. He then engaged the services of Scout's Agency and, after several weeks of thorough investigation, during which the parties were kept under observation, they finally succeeded in raiding the premises of 426 Waverly avenue.
Breaking down the door of Simmons' room, they found both he and the preacher's wife undressed, in bed. It is stated that both of them were dragged downstairs in the parlor of Mrs. Lovewell, the landlord, without having had an opportunity to get dressed, and, finally, both Simmons and Mrs. Jones were dragged upstairs again, permitted to dress, and carried from the premises.
There were several letters found by the detectives, some of which the preacher alleged were written to his wife by Simmons.
The detectives claimed they have trailed Mrs. Jones for several weeks and claim that she would leave her husband's house in Cumberland street in the afternoon and stop in stores to do marketing and take the groceries around to Stamius' house, prepare meals, and remain in this room for several hours on on she would re-enter. Rev. Jones has started suit for absolute divorce in the Supreme Court through his attorney, Pope B. Billups, naming Simmons as correspondent.
Held on Burglary Charge
Earl H. Jackson, 26 of 120 Beach 84th street, Rockaway Beach, following an indictment of burglary in the third degree, pleaded guilty and was sentenced to an indictment of burglary in penitentiary by Judge Burt Ray Humphrey in the Queens County Court on Saturday.

"Frail Little Woman" Supposed to Have Captured "Burly Negro"
Mineola, L. L., Dispatch Bears Usual Earmarks in Capiture of Man Charged With Burglary
Mrs. Alexander Schumanski, who keeps a little grocery store on Laurel avenue, Hempstead, L. L. has been suddenly made a heroine by the Brooklyn newspapers after what was supposed to be her heroic capture of "a big, black, burly Negro," the kind with which newspapers are acquainted but which exists only in the minds of white newspapermen.
George Hill, the colored man in the case, is alleged to have entered Mrs. Schumanski's store intent on burglaring the place. The "little woman," so says a dispatch to the papers, entered her store suddenly and found Hill, who jumped the counter and made for the door
The Polish woman was too quick for him, continues the dispatch, which makes Hill the size of Jack Johnson and Mrs. Schumanski the size of a ten-year-old girl, and she closed with her burglar. She shouted hustily for her husband, and Joseph Wassling, a neighbor, but before their arrival she had knocked Hill down and dagged him with her clothes line.
Up to a late hour last night the Pathe Motion Picture Company had not sent any representatives to take pictures of the store, with Mrs. Schumanski artlessly posing in the doorway and modestly accepting the applause of her neighbors for heroically subduing the "giant."
Brooklyn Lodges Enthusiastic About Dance for Christmas Fund
Because the entire proceeds of the affair will be used to gladden the hearts of Masonic Aidows and orphans and other deserving persons, at Christmastide the officers and members of the F. & A. M. Prince Hall, of the Second Masonic District, comprising the lodges of Brooklyn, Staten Island and Long Island, are standing solidly behind District Deputy Grand Master Samuel A. Gibbs for the success of the Xmas Stocking Concert and Dance which is to be held on Thursday evening, October 22, at Brooklyn Labor Lyceum. This concert is expected to be the greatest social event among the Masons of the Second District.
Worshiful Master John R. Hort in a recent letter to the members of Tuscan Lodge called their attention to the pleasant evening in store for them, and urged upon each to give every effort for the success of the affair.
Pro. E. Aldana Jackson, organist of St. Mark's M. E. Church, Manhattan, has accepted the voluntary services of Mr. Edward Carter Lindsay, pianist; Mrs. Novelle Pinder, dramatic reader; Messrs James D. Spencer and Chas. H. Nicholas, harbors and others. Prof. Andrew T. Williams, a member of Carthaginian Lodge, who has also accepted the voluntary services of a number of high-class artists, has donated a beautiful violin to the Christmas prodigy violin to the Xmas Stocking Committee, with the instructions to the District Deputy to dispose of it in any manner possible he sees fit for the benefit of the Craft. With the six lodges of Brooklyn, and all the other lodges of the District, even as far away as Setaquet, L. I., so greatly interested in the Christmas benefit, the evening of October 22 will be recorded as the most outstanding social event of the most season.

News of Brooklyn and Long Island
The Beauty Contest Controversy
Instead of clarifying the atmosphere, made rather hazy by the controversy arising from their attempt to stage a "Beauty Contest," the Jamaica Enterprise, of Jamaica, Long Island, has thrown what will be looked upon as a camouflage smoke bomb — an explanation which failed to explain to the satisfaction of those concerned.
Miss Olga Jacobs, of Brooklyn, New York, who won first prize, and Miss Eugenia Webb, of Jamaica, Long Island, can now be considered tied for first place honors, in that the Enterprise tells us at this late date the judges, whom they must have had a hand in selecting, awarded the "same prize to two and the Enterprise will see to it that each one of the contestants in question shall receive the same." The explanation, which came out in the belated issue of the Enterprise of October 3rd, reads as follows:
"Due to the controversy concerning the award of the First Prize in the Beauty Contest, The Enterprise withheld from publishing the account of the same, but after investigation they find the facts to be that the judges did award the first prize to Miss Eugenia Webb, of 15 Vine street, Jamaica, and at the disapproval of the audience the same judges changed their decision and awarded the same to Miss Olga Jacobs, of Brooklyn, unto whom it was given. The Enterprise wants fair play and so far as in them lies is determined that all contestants shall receive such. The Enterprise does not mean to detract from and shall endeavor to see to it that all concerned are satisfied. According to the judges' decision (that is our information as to each awarded the maximum prize (3) and the Enterprise will see to it that each one of the contestants in question shall receive the same. Trusting that this adjustment will meet the approval of all concerned, we are yours for success and harmony. The Jamaica Enterprise, etc."
Instead of helping the situation, that explanation naturally throws the whole thing into what will be looked upon as deeper controversy. We might here explain that this paper is only interested to the extent of giving news and information to the hundreds of readers in Jamaica, wherein resides one of the contestants, and to thousands of readers in Brooklyn, the home of the other contestant. If it is true that the judges reversed their decision on the night of the affair at Polish Hall, we are anxious to know why the Enterprise failed in its account of the awarding of the prizes in another part of their publication to mention that a first prize had been given to both Miss Jacobs and Miss Webb.
In behalf of the parties interested and thousands of readers of this paper, we would gladly welcome a signed statement from Messrs. Pedro, Borroughs, Beauclare, Dade and Hack, who were the judges appointed, to say who, in their opinion, was worthy of being crowned as the most beautiful contestant making a bid for honors in Jamaica. In justice to both of the young ladies, we are naturally forced to again how to what the Enterprise tells us is the decision of the judges. They have said that these men awarded the same prize to two contestants, and it is now up to the judges to go on record with an opinion that will for all time settle this unfortunate affair.
The majority opinion of those present, at what the Amsterdam News Jamaica correspondent at the time termed "a fair turnout," is that Miss Jacobs should be entitled to the prize, but Miss Webb, her friends feel, has as much claim to recognition, in that she it was who, in the opinion of five men designated to pass upon the matter, was worthy of the honor. In justice to Miss Jacobs, the judges should have publicly announced on the same night of the affair (it what the Enterprise says is true) that a mistake had been made and the family and friends of this charming little Brooklyn lady would not have been made to feel embarrassed by the turn the affair took after the mixup. In conclusion, we voice the hope that the judges will now come forth and proclaim the winner of the contest.

Flushing Recluse Charged With Stealing Violin
Romeo Valentine, 18, of Seventh avenue, Bayside (the Roaming Valentine with the violin, as he is termed), was arrested by the detectives of the Flushing precinct last Wednesday afternoon while playing a violin he is alleged to have stolen from Gertrude O'Grady of Myrtle avenue and 25th street, Flushing. Valentine is charged with burglary and was haled before Magistrate Kochendorfer in Flushing on that charge. The violin that Valentine is alleged to have stolen is an heirloom to the O'Grady family, valentine detectives for the Flushing detectives living in a but he constructed in the woods on Little Bayside avenue, Bayside, playing sad tunes on the old violin.

Is Love Dying?
WASHINGTON, D. C.-When the veteran editor, Phil Dabney of the Cincinnati "Union" wrote his classic: "Is Love Dying." he brought tears to the eyes of the bobbed hair Walnut Hill beauties by saying that "The hair, woman's crownning glory, is now so short that cranial lumps and bumps are plainly perceptible. The man whose hand has lovingly, fingeringly, and consolingly carressed and stroked the charming tresses that formerly rippled cearward, now keeps his hands away from that bony poll, partly hidden in the remnants left by the busy barber."
Editor Dabney has shocked his many Washington friends, none of whom noticed his aversion to the bobbed hair type during his recent visit here. Probably the barbers in Washington are more expert than those in Cinchnati, or the absence of cranial lumps and bumps here may be due to the fact that this is a more peaceful city. However, stroking charming tresses will continue to be the favorite past-time if not the chief occupation of the males in this city of calm repose and beautiful

About 50 members of the Harlan Community Chorus braved the beating rain Friday evening and were present at the first rehearsal point in the beautiful auditorium of Park School No. 139, in West 139 street, between Lenox and Sewanee avenues.
Proudly at 8 o'clock Max Dutzmann, noted choir conductor, began typing out the new applicants for membership, and at 8:30 the rehearsal was under way.
To say that the beginning was pronouncing is expressing it mildly. At the conclusion of the rehearsal Mr. Bungmann said that he, too, was thoroughly plenied with the calendar showing made.
New members will be admitted
at each rehearsal. To become a
member, call at the office of The
Amsterdam News and ask for an
application blank, which when
property failed out should be
presented at the regular Friday even-
ing rehearsal at 8:00 o'clock.
Blanks may also be secured by
mail. Enclose a self-addressed
and stamped envelope.
All applicants on what is called the reserve list will be given a try-out Friday prior to the rehearsal by Mr.utzmann. Individual notices are being sent each applicant on the list.
Pushkin Society
Gives Sunday Musicale
To begin their season's activities the Pushkin society, a literary club of City College, gave a musician Sunday afternoon in the 187th period branch of the Y. W. C. A.
Judging from the heavy applause of elderly people, who were present, the most pleasing part of the program was the piano selection rendered by Ernestine Jesse Covation. Miss Covington is a graduate from the Oberlin Conservatory of Music. The selection that she played was Chopin's "Etude in E Major" and the "Etude on Black Keys."
W. Thompson displayed an unusual knowledge of music from Weinhausk. Thompson is a graduate from the Royal Academy of Music, London.
Others who appeared on program were Phillip Beach, piano solo; Miss Z. Kelly, dramatic selection; W. McLean, baritone solo; Miss D. Watson, history of the Pushkin society; and Eardle, Johns, dramatic selection.
Fred at Wife, Kills Daughter White Plains Man on Trial for Murder in First Degree
WHILE PLAINS, N. Y., Oct. 12—Killer Moore, charged with the murder of his adopted daughter, Mrs. Bonnie Harris, and the wounding of his wife, Mrs. Genova Moore, last July, in front of their home, was brought before Supreme Court Justice Arthur S. Tompkins and a jury for the first time last week.
While aiming at his wife, with whom he had just had a quarrel, Moore fired several shots, but the bullets struck Mrs. Harris instead of his wife. He fired again at his wife, but the bullet merely grinded her side, it is claimed.
Moore escaped and after a pistol battle with policemen in Hampshire three days later he was captured. During the gun fight, a patrolman was shot in the leg.
The accused man will be represented by former City Judge Mortimer S. O'Brien.
Charred with the theft, of eight pairs of men's silk socks, valued at $2.50 from the haberdashery of Simon Sailing, white. 52 E. 125th street, Howard Davis, 26. 172 W. 132nd street, was held in $1,000 ball for a further hearing by Magistrate Goodman in the Heights Court, Friday morning.

In this article I will tell of some of the French customs and how they differ from American ones.
Coming from a country where it is not legitimate to have a thirst, one of the things that has struck me most is the enormous quantity of wine that is consumed. A Frenchman takes wine with his meals as an American is supposed to take water, and in the cheaper restaurants if you do not order wine you are charged extra on your bill. Drinking with each meal is such a fixed custom in France that I fancy the foes of "the Demon Rum" will have a rather hard job trying to introduce prohibition.
One of the most important thanks to an American need to a hearty feed in the morning is the French breakfast, which consists only of rolls and coffee. It is difficult to get a substantial meal before 11:30. Unlike the American restaurants, the French restaurants are open only about three hours around noon, and about four hours in the evening. Food is about a third cheaper in England and America, quality for quality. Many are on an entire course, wine included, for four francs or about 19 cents. But to eat in such places one must have a rather robust stomach. Tipping is the custom in France, and if you were to forget the weder, he'd pretty soon tell you about it.
When you go to the theatre the usher expects a tip—it is her pay—and at the hotel, one-tenth of the price of your room is added to the bill for the chambermaid.
The means of transportation in Paris are street car, bus, subway and taxi. The latter are even more numerous than in New York City, and ever so much cheaper. Taxis in Paris are almost as cheap as street cars and four persons can ride from one end of the city to the other for about fifty cents. The public conveyances all have first and second class. One can ride all over the Paris subway second class for about two cents. But when you get to your station you'd better open the subway door yourself or you'll be carried by. The same holds true when you are getting on.
As was said, the advocates of prohibition will find a virgin field to work in; so also will the advocates of Sunday closing as Sunday is a gerat business day here—many of the places close on Monday instead.
In the markets, large heaps of snails are on sale. I ate one for curiosity's sake. It was tough and rather tasteless, and I have decided that so far as snails and oysters are concerned the little dears can go on enjoying their lives.
Wine, brandy, cognac and beer are very cheap. You can get a quart of good wine for about ten cents. It is certainly not comforting to my thirsty friends in the great American Sahara to say this, but the fact is that you can get a schooner of beer (or schope, as it is called here) for three cents, is it any wonder that almost every fifth person one meets in Paris is an American?
Omelette Without Eggs
There is never a rule without an exception. You have heard the old saying: One can't make an omelette without breaking eggs. Well, it is all wrong. The other day I stopped at a restaurant and ordered two boiled eggs. Soon the waitress returned to say something about her having no boiled eggs, but that I could have an omelette. Well, I have found that when I don't quite understand the best

curiosity at seeing it was about as
far as I got with it.
Speaking French is more than a Motion. You start out to say one thing and you finish by saying another. This matter of a difference of language goes so deep that even the cats and dogs will not notice you, if you call them in the English manner.
And speaking of cats, I am reminded to say that a black cat running across your track is a lucky sign here. Thirteen is a lucky number with the French.
Another custom is that a duty is levied on merchandise brought into the city of Paris. This is reminiscent of the time when the states of the union had to pay duty on one another. A taxi-driver leaving Paris had better get a ticket for the quantity of gas taken out. And if he brings in more than he takes out he must pay the duty.
But to me, a Negro, the most striking thing in France is the attitude toward the Negro. Just reverse the Anglo-Saxon or cracker attitude and you have it. As I said in my last article, one finds Negroes, black Negroes, employed everywhere, I have talked with more than a score of French Negroes, principally from the French West Indies, and they tell me that the natives of those islands enjoy full equality with the Frenchman at home.
In my last article, I spoke of Bengala, the magnificent, Sangalese at the Follies-Bergere. I have since returned there and I have found that his contact with the white woman in his act has been cut to a minimum. One act has been entirely illuminated. I remarked on it to a Frenchman and he replied: "C'est les Americans." One hears more English than French spoken at the Follies-Bergere. Ot one of the side-shows I imagined that I was back in New York City.
As I write, I have before me a copy of Premier Poincaré's warning to Americans to leave their color discriminations at home. Still they have money and are capable of doing a lot of mischief.
In the shop-windows on the Grand Boulevards may be seen wax-models of real Negroes, men and women, kinky hair and all, dressed with the latest clothing as advertisements. This it seems to me is a little more than even the Negro at home, with his inferiority complex would do in his shop-window. To be black is certainly no disgrace in France.
The star in Parisian shows are full-blooded Negroes. Some niggers past I went to the Gaumont Palace, one of the finest cinemas I have ever been in. After the pictures there was an aerobic texture in which the star was a clever little black boy. The net wound up with a boxing contest between this little Negro and a white boy. As they nummed each other, I waited breathlessly to see which would be made to win. The white boy, I said, surely. But to my astonishment the black boy not only was made to knock out the white one, but he knocked out two of the white men, then stood with one of his feet on the white boy, with arms folded as a conqueror. And the audience applauded.
In front of the Palace of the Trocadero, looking toward the Eiffel Tower, among other statues, are those of two African queens, thick lips and all. I remember that the figure representing Africa in front of Buckingham Palace, London, is a white girl.
I found not a little of color discrimination in London, but so far I have been unable to find the least trace of it here, that is, so far as the Frech are concerned. At present, I am living in the Latin Quarter. Here one sees almost every race on earth, and all live peaceably. More than ever, am I convinced that the statement that there is a Godo-rained hostility between racos is one of the biggest lies ever told.
I have since had the pleasure of meeting Rene Maran, famed author of Batioula and being a guest at his home. I will say something about him in my next article.

It is hoped that the conference serve as a whole preliminary to coming scalp sale, which takes place between Thanksgiving and Christmas.
Alleged Policy

Search for Slips—Held
in $27,000 Bail
Objecting to detectives searching him for policy slips, Otis Wilson, 21,314 West 143rd street, drew a revolver and attempted to shoot the officers Friday morning. When he was arraigned before Magistrate Smith in the Heights Court, later the same day, he waived examination and was held in $27,000 bail for the Grand Jury
The two detectives, Uhlfelder and Smith, attached to Special Service Division, said that they were making a campaign against policy players and that they observed three men approach Wilson at 133rd street and Seventh avenue and hand him something. They took Wilson into a hallway at 2272 Seventh avenue and Uhlfelder started to search him for the slips. According to the detectives, the prisoner placed big hand inside his coat, as if to get the slips, and drew a 45-caller revolver. Wilson's fingerprints showed he had served a term of five years in Sing Sing for robbery in 1915. He was acquitted previously on charges of incomicide and burglary.
John R. Davies
Addresses Forum
Declarating that hundreds of tenants who have direct contact with their landlords know more about the "Rent Law Conditions" than he, Judge John R. Davies, of the Seventh District Municipal Court, urged the 200 people who attended the Citizens' Forum Sunday afternoon in the auditorium of P. S. 136, 135th street and St. Nicholas avenue, to support candidates in the coming election who will enforce the laws.
Judge Davies was introduced by Michigan Brown, who has been a clerk in the Seventh District Municipal Court for three years.
In concluding his talk about some of the tenant cases that had been arranged before him, Judge Davies explained how he could really bring relief to the tenants as President of the Borough, the office for which he is a candidate. Music was furnished by the John C. Smith Dance Orchestra.

Spiritualist Fined $50 or 30 Days for Peering Into Future
Magistrate Relents and Reduces Fine to $30, Which She Paid—Accused by Three Policewomen
Posing as clerks from Bloomingdale's Department Store, three policewomen prayed and sang hymns to get their fortune told by Mrs. Anna Hall, an ordained minister in the Spiritualist Church, 308 West 138th street. This was disclosed in the testimony of the officers Monday morning in the Washington Heights. Court when Mrs. Hall was arraigned before Magistrate Simpson.
After a long-drawn-out cross-examination made by the defendant's counsellor, the court carefully analyzed the case and similar cases that have come up in the courts.
The minister was found guilty of prophesying for the future and was given the option of paying a $50 fine or spending thirty days in the workhouse. The attorney for the accused woman begged that the fine be reduced to $25. The court compromised by reduced the fine to $30, which she paid. A Mrs. Helen Weeks and daughter, who live at the 138th street address, testified for the defendant. The police officers were Sarah Barr, Julia Hart and Mary Sullivan, all white. According to the testimony of Policewoman Barr, they went to the spiritualist's residence for the second time last Tuesday. Each officer was taken alone into a back room where they said, their fortune was told. One of the policewomen declared that the woman gave her a salve and bandage for her limb, which was in perfect condition.
Policewoman Barr said that she was informed by the minister that she had a sister named Katie, who was going to cause her a great deal of trouble. In order to avoid serious trouble, the officer was instructed by the spiritualist to pour salt in each of the corners in her bedroom. Mrs. Hall denied that she had given the policewomen private interviews or charged them $2. The minister said that she led the policewomen in prayer and songs, and then asked the Lord to help them. Following the cross-examination Magistrate Simpson recited the principal points that were brought out in the testimony. He cited the decision that had been handed down by other judges in similar cases. Prior to rendering his decision, the judge ordered that the fingerprints of the spiritualist be taken.
High Bail Set for Mechanical Dentist
Charged With Assault and Violation of Sullivan
Law
Joseph Ulmer, a mechanical dentist, 102 West 130th street, was arraigned again in court Monday morning. He was held in $10,000 bail for a further hearing in the Washington Heights Court, Saturday, on a charge of felonious assault and violation of the Sullivan law.
Magistrate Simpson denied the motion of the defendants counsel to reduce the bail to $10,000.
The crime wave is increasing throughout the State, and if the court do not make it difficult for him guilty of carrying weapons and assault to evade the law, crimes will continue to increase in numbers. The crime wave must be curbed." Magistrate Simpson declared.

Wife Held for Fatal Stabbing
Stabbed during a quarrel in his house last Sunday night, William Howard, 27 years old, Janitor of an apartment building at 555 Southern boulevard, the Bronx, died in Lincoln Hospital last Monday night, Anna Howard, 23 years old, his wife, is being held without bail, charged with homicide.
According to police of the Morris-anna station, where the woman was taken, Howard was stabbed by her in a quarrel in the base most of the Southern boulevard building. The quarrel, in itself, took place over the question as to whether Howard or his wife was the janitor. Howard contended that a man was always the head of the house, while his wife insisted that, as she was doing most of the work, the title of janitor was hers, the police allege.
A fight ensured in which Howard was stabbed in the neck and body, with a bread knife. He was raked to Lincoln Hospital. The wife, arrested immediately after the stabbing by Detectives Doyle and Woy of the Morrissana station, was locked up, charged with felonious assault.

DR. GOMEZ RETURNS AS PASTOR IN DETROIT
DETROIT, Mich., Oct. 13.—Rev. Joseph Gomez has been reappointed by Bishop Vernon again as pastor of Bethel A. M. E. Church this past summer. He gave a guest appointment. While the rule of the A. M. E. Church is to limit appointments to five years, the work of Rev. Gomez has been so exceptional that he has been returned for two years. Bishop Gomez has built the new Bethel Church, having the largest seating capacity of any colored church in America. And next June this church will be the host of the bishops of the A. M. E. Church, one of the mud-summer session of the Bishops' Council.
Funeral of Rev. Alexander
Mason Held in W. Va.
CHARLESTON, W. VA., Oct. 12.

Grand Secretary and J.F. Wilson at Odds
NEWARK, N. J., Oct. 12.—What bids rial to assume the proportions of a national fraternal shake-up is contained in the contents of two letters passing between the Grand Exalted. Ruler of I. B. P. O. E. of W. and the Grand Secretary of that body within the last ten days. The contents of those letters have served to atr up and bring to a head the enmity between J. Finley Wilson and George E. Bates, and the contest which is going on at present within the ranks of the rebellious Pride of Newark Lodge No. 93 of this city.
It seems that on the 25th of September Grand Secretary Bates wrote a letter to every lodge of the Elks' Order, in which was listed the names of all the suspended members of the entire body. Among these names was included those of Dr. A. A. Browne, District Deputy, Geo. L. Peterson, John M. Stonte and George L. Wolfson. But these men, though suspended from Pride of Newark Lodge at different times, were all suspended since the 14th day of May. At noon of the 14th of May Pride of Newark was itself suspended from the national order. The suspension was lifted by Wilson at Richmond.
Bates in his communication of the 25th evidently neglected to consider this fact. On Oct. 6 Wilson therefore wrote Bates a letter of reprimand, in which he stated that the Grand Secretary's action, which was ill advised and may lead to very serious consequences, may also be the basis for libel. The word "libel" is capitalized in the communication. The decision of the late Henry Lincoln Johnson at Richmond on the status of the revived Pride of Newark Lodge was that the lodge, with its suspension lifted, maintained the same status that it had at the time of its suspension.

TEN baby fingers of ten kiddies, each, to our way of counting, make 100—and that was the sight which greeted us in a home we recently visited, just overflowing with 100 per cent Americanism. It was by far the happiest home we had ever seen, and the harmony, the entire aged 11, 10 and 9, played "What I Do" with equal grace and facility. Robust boys ran errands and from the store for their parents, while the receding tiers of youngsters amused the wee kiddies on down to the baby. In this home, the legendary "Cutter's Saturday Night scene" with peace, happiness and co-operation aphonding.
TEN BABY fingers of ten kiddies a way of counting, make 100 and a sight which greeted us in a home visited, just overflowing with 100 per cent cism. It was by far the happiest moment.

Bob persuaded from the store for their receiving tiers of youngsters annual kiddies on down to the baby. In the legendary "Cutter's Saturday Night Society," today with peace, happiness and abounding.
This, we thought, as Mother spreads a one hundred per cent American honour with an act of kindness high morals, love, self-esteem, unity, unending smiles and the spirit one—one for all. Here, we mused, is a kind of Americanism we read about equality, Godliness, advancement, patriotism. Here are some boys who make a battlefield in which world supremacy fought out. Here are some girls who add pure Christian womanhood and the animals of retirement. Roosevelt would have honored such a Americanism, such monumental Christ Lincoln would have smiled to know the brown-fingered kiddies, all ten of them men and women.
And, though we, as we paused be out: Must these God-given children somehow meet the rabbit of those classes less prey onward vainly seeking to imaginary world, where dwell a super people to toll from these youngsters forborn with brown skins? Surely, are so befleamed such a pure American home, before Daddy and Mother Morse shall last kiddies reach maturity. Christians will have pervaded those spots which has struggled to enter for lo these man memories will have been refreshed by that "God is no respector of persons."

Cleanliness, high morals, love, self-sacrifice, respect, unity, unending smiles and the spirit of All for one, one for the world, one for the challenges and Americanism, we read about, Freedom, equality, Godliness, advancement, loyalty and patriotism.

Plead for Christian Idea in Race Relations All Over Civilized World—Warm of Present Dangers
LONDON, Oct. 12.--Race problems occupied the attention of the Episcopal Church Congress at Eastbourne, and grave words of warning were uttered of the perils involved in ranging the white race against black, brown or yellow peoples. Lord Willingdon, who has been Governor of two presidencies in India, and J. H. Oldham, Secretary of the International Missionary Council, who has traveled all over the world and been a close student of the Asiatic question particularly, agreed that it is impossible to continue the old policies of white supremacy. Willingdon traced to a war growth the idea of self-determination of the colored races in the East. They not only resented the idea of inferiority, but believed that the Eastern standard of morality is in many ways higher than the Western.
"In my view," said Lord Willingham, "there is only one solution of the problem. The white races must realize the necessity of treating all colored men in the spirit of absolute equality and give up the attitude of color superiority. Providence long ago placed the whitenan in the position of a trustee, whose wards, the colored men, are growing up. The white man no longer needs even for their good. At best he can only successfully guide them past particular dangers.
"I honestly believe," he contends, "if the whole attitude of the white to colored races could be altered. If the white man would always act in a spirit of giving equality and opportunity to those who are colored, what appears now is a wave of pardonable attitude on the part of colored races would entirely change and they would be willing to discuss these important matters in a fair spirit, with a due sense of the difficulties surrounding them. The only one way of doing this is by always carrying into relations with the colored races the principles of the Christian faith and remembering that there is a divinity who should work, rough hew them as we will." Secretary Oidham, analyzing the causes of race discrimination, laid special stress on the economic

side, and said that the basis of the exclusive immigration policies of America and the British dominions were caused by the fear that standards of living might be affected by the admission of cheap labor. As a keen student of eastern Europe, he of the leading Mosques of the Near East, with their eyes open to the reconcilable differences between Bolshevism and Mohammedanism, were inclined to throw in their lot with the Bolsheviks solely because they felt that the Bolsheviks created them as equals, where western nations did not. He urged the Congress to remember that Christ always thought of men as individuals and to avoid misusing men as Christians, and not of them as individuals. He asked the audience to face the facts, squarely.
"A solid white front inevitably means a solid yellow, brown or black front." he said, "and that can only have one meaning—war. The only way to present defiance and true vision to refuse to be entangled into the snare of radicalism. They should strive to ensure the triumph of their claims of humanity, even though it brings them the opposition of men of their own race. They should feed in this matter than the Christian Church," he concluded.
Shuran Singha, a Christian Indian, who wore a turban and also addressed the congress in perfect English, said, "We have got to go to the white man to rule the black. We must get rid of the white man's prestige. Not the prestige of color, but the prestige of character will count in the future."

Improved "Y" Dedicated at Columbus, Ga
COLUMBUS, Ga. Oct. 13.—With Hon. George Foster Peabody, New York philanthropist, and Dr. R. R. Motson of Tuskegee Institute as the principal speakers, the colored Y. M. C. A. building in this city has just been reedited, after extensions and improvements which make it one of the most up-to-date institutions of the kind in the country. Fifteen thousand dollars, contributed by the Y. M. C. A. Army and Navy Fund and by local colored citizens, was expended in the improvement program, which provided increased dormitory facilities, enlarged gymnasium and auditorium, and refinishing of the building throughout. An additional secretary, C. E. Farley, has been employed to work exclusively among the soldiers of the 24th Infantry stationed at Fort Beaumont. Many prominent people of both races took part in the dedication, including the mayor of the city, president of the Central 24th Infantry, Prof. H. A. Hunt of Fort Valley and Dr. M. L. Taylor of Columbus.
The original building was the gift of Mr. Peabody, a native of Columbus, and was erected in 1907 at a cost of $20,000. The improvement program was initiated by A. B. Richson, secretary of the Central

Segregation Fight On in 17 Cities
Denver, Colorado, Is Latest Addition to Growing List
Acute segregation situations in seventeen cities throughout the United States, ranging from New York to Los Angeles, are reported by the National Association, which has just received a report adding the city of Denver, Colo., to those previously listed. George W. tross, president of the Denver branch of the N. A. A. C. P., reports that the "grim monster of segregation has raised its head in Denver as in other cities just now and it looks as though we are to have a fight here."
The Denver situation arises out of a joint meeting recently by three "improvement" associations, whose members and friends are being urged to sign agreements not to sell property to Negroes. Petitioners have raised and being circulated for every block in those districts and numbers of property owners are reported to have signed. Proposals were also discussed at the white property owners' meeting to establish a separate school for Negro students and to amend the state law to provide for segregation. The cities, besides Denver now invade segregation are: Detroit=Eleven Negroes charged with first degree murder for defending Dr. O, H. Sweet's home from a riotous mob are being defended by the N. A.

Burglar Escapes Death Penalty
FRANKFORT, Ky., Oct. 12.—One man saved from electrocution and at least two others relieved temporary at least from a life sentence under Kentucky's burglar law is the result of the Court of Appeals ruling that the measure is unconstitutional. The last legislature passed an act fixing death penalty or life imprisonment for any person caught robbing a residence between darkness and daylight.
Alex Gibson entered a country home and was surprised there by the owner. Both were injured. Gibson was given death penalty. He was placed in the Eddyville Pavilion, where Kentucky executions are carried out, and is there now, but will be returned to Fayette County for a new trial.
William T. Smith and Walter Henry Harris were convicted of burglary charges within the meaning of the law and condemned to spend the rest of their lives in the penitentiary. When the Court of Appeals instituted habeas corpus proceedings, won their release from the extreme penalty and were returned to Fayette County for trial under
the old statute, which provides
new laws, new years
alleged, upon concession.
It is understood that the defect found in the law by the Court of Appeals will be remedied and the bill will-be-offered-for--passage again at the legislative session this winter.

Chaotic Condition in 21st A. D.
Chaotic Condition in 21st A. D.
REPUBLICAN VOTERS in the Twenty-first Assembly District are justified in viewing with alarm Robert S. Conklin's designation of George W. Harris as an Associate Member of the Executive County Committee. Harris and Conklin are old enemies, who during the course of their careers have said very uncomplimentary things about each other, which transcend ordinary campaign or political utterances.
IN 1923, when Harris was a candidate for office without the indorsement of Conklin and the regular Republican organization, Conklin, in a letter reproduced for the most part in this issue of The Amsterdam News, charged that Harris was ungrateful, selfish, a "bootlicker," that he readily misrepresented facts and that he had the backing of the local Democratic organization.
HARRIS, IN REPLY to this attack, charged that Conklin was responsible for the chaotic political condition in the Twenty-first District, a majority of whose voters are normally Republicans, that his policy is the "age-long policy of the Caucasian, to divide the colored people and to rule them," that he is opposed to the interests of qualified Negro voters and that on the whole he is utterly unfit for the position he holds from the Negro's point of view. The fight between the two even reached the stage where one of Harris' henchmen was thrown out of the clubhouse on upper Broadway.
A SHORT TIME before the recent Primary Election Harris realized that he would be unsuccessful in his attempt to become the organization candidate for Alderman in the District without the support of the organization and set about to make his peace with the white leader. The nomination was denied him, principally on the ground that he had no political following. Harris' overtures to Conklin — the same "fearless, independent Republican," who a year ago had many people believing that he was actuated by the highest of motives for the good of the race—reached their climax when the County Committee met to elect the Executive Member for the District, on which occasion he arose and made a glowing speech in favor of his erstwhile enemy as against Charles W. B. Mitchell, who was opposing the white leader in the election, and, incidentally, revealing himself as a selfish office seeker.
HARRIS' REWARD came a few days ago when he was notified by Conklin

that because he was "qualified by education and experience to present the views of the colored people in party councils," he had designated him an Associate Member of the Executive Committee.
By CHARLES H. WESLEY.
URING my experience as a teacher of history at Howard University, and as a student of history at several of America's largest institutions. I have had many opportunities to secure at first hand information concerning the knowledge which many students have had of the history of special periods and nationalities. From the very first, it has been amazing to to me that there should be such an immense amount of ignorance of the facts of history as they relate to the Negro group, and such a hereworship of the facts of history as they relate to other groups who live in America. But the main reason for this lack of acquaintance and of information concerning the Negro group is very evident. It is not the fault of the student, for his interest in nearly every case has been easily aroused in pursuit of these facts. The faults may be quickly located. They may be found in the text books and in the school curricula. I have examined about twenty-five textbooks in the field of American history—it could not be expected that there would be a great relation between Negro History and European History. for the Negro in Medieval and Modern times has been almost a negligible factor in the history of Europe—but among the American History texts there were only two which made any other mention of Negroes than as a group of slaves and papyrus free Negroes. Individual Negroes of merit are mentioned in none. Coming up under such a system, it is very apparent that Negroes cannot be expected to know anything of their past.
IF, as Conklin charged in his communication, Harris was a "bootlicker" a little over a year ago, he is still a "bootlicker," because he has not changed his tactics in the least and, if Conklin's sole purpose a little over a year ago was to divide Negro Republicans and thus rule them, in which he has succeeded for the present, at least he is still the same scheming politician. Voters may repose their belief in two things: One, that both of them were lying when they made charges against each other; the other, that the charges are true but that for personal reasons they have decided to forgive and forget.
EITHER OPINION must lead ultimately to the decision that neither Harris nor Conklin is fit for leadership in the Twenty-first Assembly District and that both should be deposed.
HARLEM NEGROES have already for too long a time reposed faith in white and colored political leaders whose only purpose is to advance themselves politically. There is little doubt that in compromising his differences with a man he claimed was opposed to the political advancement of Negroes, George W. Harris is looking out for his own personal interests and that he does not give a tinker's damn for his past utterances or for the group he represents; and Conklin, likewise, stands revealed in his true colors when he designates a "bootlicker" as his associate, so as to be able to keep the Negro end of the district divided and thus rule a Negro majority.
It is a sad experience in a child's life which brings to it the realization for the first time that there is a political, a social and an economic difference between himself and his white playmate around the corner. It is more unfortunate that this child must soon realize that his badge of color in America is a sign of subjugation, inferiority and contempt. Some of us may recall such experiences in our own lives or of those near us. My little girl came to me at one time with her hands very soiled after her play. I told her to go immediately and wash her hands. After that they were washed, she returned proudly and said, "Gee, Daddy, I'm white." I replied, "No, girl, you are not." Her answer in a very hopeful tone was, "Well, I'm near, white"; and again I replied, "No, you are not. You are a Colored American, only of a Colored American life in America. We may attempt to withhold the information as to color differences, as long as the child lives in America, sooner or later the rude shock must come of the racial difference between it and the child of fairer face; and this child of fair face through the tradition of the street comes to realize its superiority over the child of darker face. In this way the traditions of racial differences are perpetuated. It is the statement of a well-known fact that if racial relations are to be improved, we must start with the new generation. One shock after another comes to the rising generation until the iron of bitter disappointment is burnt deep into their souls. To the one of color there comes the inevitable feeling of inferiority and the discouraging expectation that the race to which he belongs cannot and has not attained racial distinction. To the other, there comes the feeling of superiority and the expectation that because of the position of the group to which he belongs, he must claim the seat of authority over his darker brother.
THE ASSOCIATE MEMBERSHIP in itself is worthless, for while the majority of the County Committeemen are Negroes, the real associate is Mrs. Margaret A. Sealy, a white woman. Next comes that "fearless, intelligent leader" of Negroes, Harris, whom Conklin has designated to sit in party councils but whose lips are sealed and who hasn't the power to make the simplest recommendation. Conklin has further divided the Harris "sop" between John Clifford Hawkins and Mr. and Mrs. Richard E. Warner, the remaining three leaders who looked with favor upon Conklin's candidacy, leaving out altogether the faction which had the nerve to vote for a colored man as against a white man for leader, and who constitute a majority of the Negro voters and County Committeemen in the District.
SUCH A CONDITION should be unbearable to any man who calls himself a Negro and who has an ounce of faith in his oppressed race. The deed is done and the time is short before election.
QUICK, DECISIVE ACTION IS NECESSARY. Conklin is a candidate for the Supreme Court Bench, and while there is little or no likelihood of his election, Negroes everywhere should refrain from casting a vote for him. If it goes against the grain to vote for a Democratic candidate in his stead, leave his name on the ballot blank. In failing to vote for him you will be voicing your disapproval of his tactics and set in motion the machinery necessary to oust him from the Executive Leadership in the Twenty-first Assembly District and prevent his further advancement in politics at our expense.
Shall we allow these vicious impressions to find their way into the inner fiber of our American youth, or by a conscious effort of teaching shall we seek to remove them by substituting for personal, parental and racial traditions the more positive foundation of historical facts? Only a study of history in all of its phases and of all of its people can meet successfully the bitter experiences which are driven into the inner selves of American children by these first childhood experiences in racial contacts. The correct information may be obtained, as some of us have obtained it, in our homes, at mother's and father's knees, where we learned the wonderful stories of times past. But the task of the home has been rapidly taken over by the school, because it can be carried on more efficiently. Once the education of the human race was carried on in the home, and the great body of social tradition was transmitted by way of the parent and the elders. In the process of evolution, the school has taken over this function, for there
NEXT WEEK'S editorial will deal with other candidates for office in districts where there are a large number of Negro voters.
EDITOR'S NOTE: "Negro History in the School Curriculum" is a monograph which covers the substance of an address delivered before the Teachers' Institute of the 19th 13th Division and Allied High and Normal Schools of Washington, D. C., January 30, 1925, by Dr. Chas. H. Wesley of the Department of History of Howard University. The speech on the monograph is regarded by leading educators as a very able treatise of a subject which of late has increasingly engaged the attention of pedagogists and Invited the interests* of students.
the body of organized knowledge is supposed to reside either in books or in teachers. History is no longer the story of ancestral greatness or tribal glory or national agranization. It deals with the entire past of humanity, with all men in all times and in all places. It is the development of man in his activities as a social being. The curriculum, so far as history is concerned, should embrace then the study of the contributions of all peoples. In the interest of a better American nation, this is particularly true of those people who have contributed to American History. It has been a recognized factor among American historians that American History should not be studied without a correlation of it with the history of the old world. This has been regarded so necessary that in the production of the important set of histories in the cooperative series known as "The American Nation," the first volume was entitled "The European Background of American History." This connection with Europe in study is explained as necessary because the American youth must take into account the origins and contributions of the nations from which our civilizations have been derived. The story of the transfer and the evolution of the contributions to civilization by the peoples of England, Ireland, France, Germany, Spain and Holland are passed in review. It is probable that there is one group whose origins and whose contributions have been neglected by the historians of America's past? Is it true that in the chronicle of the American people there is a neglect of one section of this people? These questions must be answered in the affirmative. Negro origins and Negro contributions to America are unknown because of the text book treatment, which is written as a rule to support a particular racial bias, and also because there are teachers who do not know these facts, who do not care to know them and who are different as to their diffusion. It is my special purpose in the treatment which follows to pursue the scholarly attitude, to search for truth, to create interest in this field, to acquaint students not only with the facts which are common knowledge but also the truth from their neglected field, with the hope that the teachers who read this may be inspired to equip themselves to become the lantern bearers of the truth of history to all young America. It is hoped that the teachers of the schools of all groups may follow the treatment of this subject. Facts speak for themselves. They may prove disappointing to personal opinions, but the serious search for truth will expect to have his choiceful opinions controverted by the discovery of new facts.
I want to ask you to think with me briefly concerning, first, the study of the Negro in Africa; second, the study of the Negro in America, and third, the advantages which are to be derived from this study. In so brief a treatise if I shall not succeed in giving to you any new information or any really new thoughts, as I briefly survey this field, I shall be satisfied if I can convey to you a point of view—the teacher's point of view in the teaching of Negro history so as to secure the greatest value to all pupils. The work of interracial committees and good-will attitudes can be immensely advanced by a different point of view on the part of the teachers of social subjects.
I. The Negro in Africa.
In the first place, let us note the place of Africa in any educational plan for the study of the history of man's past. The civilizations of the Greek, the Roman, the German, the English, the French and other nations are embraced in the modern study of history. But the treatment of the African civilization has been left to Anthropology and to Ethnology. Therefore, the first named countries have a place in the school curriculum, but the contribution of the latter element is neglected and denied a place either in courses or in the teaching of general history in the modern school. The geographies which are used in the
schools give pictures of naked savages in Africa as examples of this people. While beautiful pictures of Goth, Hun, and Vandal warriors clad in skins—which were used, by the way, not so much because of the desire to hide their naked bodies as because of the requirements of the cold climate—these pictures give concepts to young America of the glories of the European past. But why study the tribes of one continent and neglect the tribes on the other, when both of them have contributed to the making of America?
There were kingdoms in Africa as glorious and as brilliant as those of the Goths, the Vandals, the Huns, the Angles, the Saxons, the Jutes and the Franks. There were governments, laws, industrial and economic manifestations which rivaled the early kingdoms of Europe. While German savages were tighting and quarreling in the forests of Germany, kingdoms were flourishing in Africa. The Arab conquests of the seventh and eighth centuries and the later periods caused the decline of these empires. The same fate might have come to Europe of Charles Martel had not turned back the eastern conquerors as they were advancing into Europe at Tours in 1722. There Christian and Mohammedan civilizations struggled, and it was determined that, henceforth European civilization should be Christian and should take from the East only what was desirable for its own advancement. In Africa, the Mohammedan waves of Ottoman and Seljuk Turks swept over the African kingdoms leaving only ruins in their wake. Africa and Europe for centuries had withstood repeated assaults, but the permanent occupation of these periods gave to Northern and Central Africa the same lethargy which came to Spain until Fordiland of Aragou and Isabella of Castle and freed Spain from the Mohammedan yoke by capturing Granada in 1492 and immediately thereafter the substitution of the Inquisition and religious bigotry continued the decline of Spanish civilization.
In the study of history from the texts which are used in our schools, Africa is regarded only as a source for a labor supply, and as the habitat of savages through all times and as the home of degraded civilizations, and people. Unfortunately, the average historian who prepares a history text book knows little about Africa prior to the rise of the Slave Trade; and more unfortunately, if he does know of these facts, he does not see the propriety of stating them to a reading public who would not be very well pleased with the reading of it. And yet, if the object of study is to seek the truth, then it should be the purpose of the schools to give the truth to the young generations and not the concepts which are narrowed by the special interests of text book authors.
There are volumes which are constantly bringing into our view new truth concerning the races of mankind and more especially concerning Africa and its peoples. The opening of the tombs of Kings Tribulio and Tutukamken has aroused new interest in things African. The continued publication of the Harvard African Studies has kept before the scholarly world the newer discoveries, Scientific, geographical and anthropological societies are having those facts presented at their occasional meetings. Our own Smithsonian Institution has not been negligent in arousing interest in this field. Not so long ago, I came across a bulletin of the Geographical Society containing an article under the caption, Did African People Europe? Why should not the schools in this movement to discover and disseminate new truth? Of course, it is evident that the work of research in this field should be undertaken by those who are trained technically under competent direction for the purpose, by those who understand and by those who have visited the libraries of Europe and North Africa in search of material. Nevertheless, there is a great body of knowledge which is available to all students of history, and which all may read, understand and pass on to another who does not know. In order to be practical, I list a number of books which are accessible to teachers and busy students. Numerous other references to periodical magazines, to travels and observations, to the annuals of learned societies and to volumes in the large libraries of Europe and America may be obtained through bibliographical aids.

But Georgia is not going lynching. Georgia has pun lynchings.

Why do colored newspaper propaganda emanating from they should not print it, but out commenting on it in a w fooled — and in a way not.
But the average colored knows how insincere is the South. They are always r the horrible crime of rape. North Carolina is convicted colored working girl of 144 fought him like a young ti six months' sentence, and that suspended!
It's a lie about their being opposed to equality — even equality — for black people actual rape by a black man. South there are twenty-five ored women by white men — and they know that not any white man there be po Negro man or raping a Negro.

APPLESAUCE! And yet we have seen a statement under this heading printed, sometimes without comment, in many Negro weeklies. Those "good" white folks who want to hide the shame of Georgia for lynching an insane Negro are cleverly broadcasting this "promise" to punish, for the sake of appearances. We are glad that at least some white folk in Georgia are sufficiently ashamed of the brutal deed to want to make the rest of the world think that Georgia is going to punish somebody for it.
But Georgia is not going to punish anybody for this lynching. Georgia has punished nobody for about 500 lynchings.
"Oh, but they are offering a reward of $500! Well, if I had the money, I could serenely offer a reward of $500,000 for every one of these lynchers that Georgia will punish. It is easy to offer rewards that you know will never have to be paid. If Georgia really wanted to punish anybody, it would not be necessary to offer any rewards, but only to send two or three even third-class detectives to Milledgeville, who in a few days could have the name and address of every man of any consequence who invaded that insane asylum. Even some of those crazy people could tell who some of the mob were.
Why do colored newspapers "bite" at this cannouflaging propaganda emanating from Atlanta? I do not mean that they should not print it, but they should not print it without commenting on it in a way to show that they are not fooled — and in a way not to fool other colored folk. But the average colored man will not be fooled. He knows how insincere is the dominating influence of the South. They are always raving in that section against the horrible crime of rape. And when a white man in North Carolina is convicted of raping a little innocent colored working girl of 14 years, who he himself says fought him like a young tigress, the court gives him a six months' sentence, and the lawyers are trying to get that suspended!
It's a lie about their being opposed to rape. They are opposed to equality — even legal, political and industrial equality — for black people. For every case of alleged actual rape by a black man against a white woman in the South there are twenty-five cases of actual rape of colored women by white men. And the hypocrites know it and they know that not one time in a thousand will any white man there be punished for either lynching a Negro man or raping a Negro woman or girl.
It would not be unjust for the Negro editor to tell these Southern white gentlemen of the Interracial Committees and others that he will publish no "promise" and other pretenses about punishing lynchers, and will give no credit to any such alleged effort until something is actually done.

Refuse to Work With Negro on Negro School
LEAVENWORTH. Kas. — White workmen on the new Lincoln school building in South Leavenworth refuse to work with Al McClanahan, colored carpenter. Mr. McClanahan was hired by the foreman (white) who is a resident of St. Joseph. Mr. McClanahan is a property owner here and was put to work on the staircase by the foreman. When the plumbers and other workmen saw McClanahan they grouped together and called the foreman. He was astonished to learn of their attitude toward McClanahan on account of his color, but after they threatened to walk out, he came to Mr. Clanahan and told him of the situation and explained he would have to dispense of his services, or the others would strike and leave the building. Mr. McClanahan quit. So the white plumbers and other workmen are finishing the Lincoln school for colored in South Leavenworth.
