VODERY REPORTED SHOT
Negro Political Leadership
NOT a few political zealots of the race are surfeiting the innocent public with printers' ink describing the brand of leadership which is necessary to rescue the "sinking" black citizen from the drowning tides of political indifference. The political portrait painters are blending a descriptive character comprised of the diplomacy of Booker T. Washington. the aggressiveness of Ferdinand Q. Morton, the judgment of Emmett J. Scott. the organizing ability of Ed. Wright, the fighting qualities of Joe Bibb. and the popularity of "Billy" Matthews.
This man, the political zealots seem to think, would be such a political "Moses" as could snap his fingers and have the Anti-Lynching Bill passed, Negro eligible voters registered in Alabama, and twenty-five $10,000 appointments made in one 24-hour period—daylight saving time. Even Major R. R. Moton, good man that he is, has recently had the mantle of political greatness thrust upon his heavily laden shoulders by those who are fiddling while "Rome" burns. As the old legend goes, "there ain't no sich animal" as the political painters have pictured upon the screen. What our group needs to spend sleepless nights figuring out is not so much "who is going to do it" as "how it is going to be done."
What we need is not a leader, but a unit—a unit of solidarity which will make the leader know that when he moves he has behind him a solid phalanx of supporters—supporters who have AGREED upon some ONE thing at ONE time.
The American Federation of Labor, with five million members and ONE chief leader, gives to him full AUTHORITY of its content. But, alas, up to this time less than five million Negro voters have not seemingly agreed upon the AUTHORITY and UNITY they would give to any one of their fifty-seven leaders. Why not lay our own "cornerstone" and then let the leader proceed; for "leaders" are servants, not saviors—directors, not builders of unity.
The Optimistic Pullman Porter
CIM USER
I clean home, and I wouldn't be happy riding in a dirty car," said the Pullman porter pleasantly as he mopped up the floor for the fifth time between New York and Syracuse. "Besides," he continued, as he carefully wiped out a washbowl, "on a long trip like this cleanliness means everything to travelers."
"Well," said I. "it's pretty good for you, anyhow—with every berth taken you'll clean up about $12, or so cents apiece." I ventured.
"Not on your life," the porter replied. "Did you notice that fellow who just got off at Syracuse? Well, there were his wife and two sons. He gave me two bits. That's

"Faithful" Followers of Imprisoned Leader Are Holding Summer Convention at Commonwealth Casino This Week
Flaming with banners and gilt-braided uniforms, and keeping step to the rhythm of four brass bands, the Garvey faction of the Universal Negro Improvement Association paraded through the streets and avenues of Harlem Sunday.
The march from and back to the headquarters of the association, 56 West 135th street, marked the opening of the Garveyites' summer convention, which is to be held for one week at the Commonwealth Casino, 135th street and Madison avenue. The opposing faction is also in session at Liberty Hall.
From every window on the route and from the hot roof tops hung hundreds of persons, some censuring the followers of Marcus Garvey, who is in the Federal Prison at Atlanta, as they passed and some cheering his name. The sidewalks, too, were lined with people.
The procession was headed by Fred A. Toote, acting president. Close behind him rode Lady Henrietta V. Davis, fourth assistant president general. On foot were the uniformed ranks of the Universal African Police, African Legion and Royal Guards of Africa.
F. Levi Lord, chancellor, and W. A. Wallace, secretary general, are also in attendance at the conclave.

After Clark's escape, police said they "found" in his room three trunks containing silverware stolen from churches.

MUSICIAN, COMPOSER, WOUNDED; ASSAILANT UNKNOWN
Fired on by Unknown Man Who Forced Way Into His 49th Street Apartment in Search of Diamonds—No Details
Will Vodery, musician and composer, was shot in his Forty-ninth street apartment early Friday morning, according to rumors circulated last week. No official statement could be secured to substantiate the report.
According to a well known performer, an unknown man entered the musician's apartment and attempted to steal some valuable rings. When Vodery refused to give up the gems, the robber, it is alleged, opened fire. One of the bullets took effect in the artist's left arm, it is rumored.
At the office of the composer, 46th street and Broadway, no one could be reached over the telephone to verify the report. A woman answering the telephone in his uptown apartment on Seventh avenue admitted that Vodery had been shot. She refused to divulge the cause of the shooting and said that the artist had gone out of town. For a number of years Vodery was associated with the great comedians.

Car inspectors found Woods and a companion hiding in a box car and forced the pair to accompany them in search of an officer. Woods is said to have opened fire, instantly killing Guldroz and fatally wounding Dauctet. Both men escaped. Cornered by police in a vacant building, Woods fired, the charge entering Chiasson's head. Woods was captured when his gun jammed.

The mob obtained entrance to the jail by calling the jailer to the front door and covering him with shotguns and pistols while others entered the jail and shot the Negro in his cell. Bird's body was then taken to the neighborhood in which the crime is said to have been committed and hanged to a tree.
Rhinelander Files Appeal
Case Will Be Argued in Brooklyn Next Fall
Leonard Klp Rhinelander's fight to obtain annulment of his marriage to Alice Beatrice Jones was to be renewed Thursday in the Brooklyn part of the Appellate Division of the Supreme Court with the filing of an appeal from the decision under which annulment was denied.
The appeal papers consist of two printed volumes, comprising 1,455 pages. Sixteen copies were to be filed, or thirty-two volumes in all. The papers contain the complete record of the trial of the suit for annulment, the testimony and all of the exhibits, which include the love letters and the photographs. One of these letters contains more than 2,000 words.
The appeal will not be argued until fail. It will have place on a court calendar printed about September 19, and will be heard some time after October 4.
Former Supreme Court Justice Isaac N. Mills, chief counsel for Rhinelander, will argue the appeal. It will be necessary for the litigants to appear in court.
The appeal carries out the announcement made by Judge Mills last March when Justice Joseph Morschauser denied the motion of Rhinelander for a retrial of the suit, that the jury's verdict would be appealed.
Lad, 15, Held for Murder of Chum
Blows on the head, delivered by a playmate, resulted in the death in Knickerbocker Hospital Thursday of Joseph Ruffin, 15, 372 West 126th street. Ruffin, who had been playing at St. Nicholas avenue and 126th street with Jesse Woodson, 15, 370 West 127th street, returned home suffering from what appeared to be lacerations of the scalp. He explained that, during the course of an altercation, he had drawn a knife, whereupon the Woodson boy had picked up a paving brick and struck him on the head several times with it. It was not until several hours later, when he lapsed into unconsciousness, that the Ruffin boy's mother realized the seriousness of his condition. He was taken to the hospital. Young Woodson was arrested in his home and turned over to the Children's Society charged with juvenile delinquency.
HARLEM PAWN BROKERS TAKEN IN CUSTODY
Joseph and Herbert Roth Believed by Police to Have Criminally Received Stolen Property Priceless Gems in Shops
Over a million dollars' worth of stolen jewelry, it is believed by the police. has been received and sold by Joseph Roth & Son. pawn brokers, with shops at 308 and 508 Lenox avenue. With the arrest of Joseph and Herbert Roth Monday priceless gems, which have not been recorded on the books of the loan brokers, were identified by wealthy families here and on Long Island. While there are several policemen detailed at each of the two stores, a complete check has not been made as to the stolen stock on hand. Brought before Judge Mancuso in Part I of General Sessions, the two prisoners were held in $7,500 bail each for a further hearing on a charge of receiving stolen property. The bail was not forthcoming, and they were remanded to fail. Evidence gathered by Detectives Battle, Boyden and Winterhalter of the West 133th street station against the loan shop was presented to the Grand Jury on Thursday. The following day Judge Mancuso issued a bench warrant for the arrest of the two men.
The investigation came after the arrest of a young girl for the theft of jewelry. Her confession led the policemen to inspect the records of the two loan shops. The authorities believe that several suitcases of valuable diamonds will be identified by prominent families.

Despite the opinion of Attorney General Ottinger that the License Committee has no authority to deny Jack Dempsey a license, the committee, comprising Colonel John J. Phelan, Chairman, and D. Walker Wear, of Binghamton, Monday, refused further to consider Dempsey's application for a license until the heavyweight champion has complied with the resolutions and orders of the State Athletic Commission and defends his title first against Harry Wills, challenger for the title. The committee's action is based on the theory that Wills's challenge has not yet been disposed of.
The License Committee proceeded with its review of the case Monday officially ignorant of the opinion rendered by Attorney General Ottinger. When newspaper men queried the committee, Colonel Phelan said the board would have no comment to make until its members are apprised officially of the opinion.
Dempsey had been matched to fight Gene Tunney in the Yankee Stadium on Sept. 16.

According to the young woman, the defendant pinched her several times. When she spoke to him about his advances, she said that Plachta slapped her. The complainant then summoned a police officer and had him arrested.
Klan Tries to Scare Postman
Cross Burned in Front of His Hollis, L. I., Resi=
A letter signed with initials of the Ku Klux Klan ordering him to remove from his home in Hollis, Long Island, because of his race, has been received by Thomas B. Harper, Negro postal clerk, who purchased a home in this community on May 1.
Mr. Harper and his wife are fair colored people, but when darker friends came to visit them the agent who sold the house, together with the president of the Local Civic League, sought to have them accept their equity and move.
On Mr. Harper's refusing to be run out of a community because of prejudice, he received a letter ordering him to move within a month and to sell to the agent.
A few nights thereafter a fiery cross was burned opposite his house. Mr. Harper appealed to the Lieutenant in charge of the precinct for protection and sought a permit to have arms in his house. This last was denied.
The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People has written to George McLaughlin, New York Commissioner of Police, urging that instructions be given the Lieutenant of the precinct to see that ample police protection is granted Mr. Harper in case needed.
ROB BUTLER STORE.
A bandit with a revolver in each hand held up a James Butler store at 1068 Lexington avenue Saturday, stood guard over Eugene Boyle, white, manager of the store, and James Murray, district superintendent of the company, while an accomplice, who entered the store after him, took $150.
JAIL GUARD PREVENTS ESCAPE OF 3 WHITE PRISONERS
Had Sawed Bars and Overpowered a Guard—One Awaiting Execution—Investigation Ordered
CHICAGO. Aug. 16.—Courage of Harry Brown, a guard at the Cook County jail, who pretended he had a pistol in his pocket, prevented the possible escape of three white prisoners early today.
The trio, one of whom is awaiting execution, had sawed their way out of their cells and overpowered one guard, before the guard forced them back into their cells.
Daniel McGeohegan, awaiting execution along with "Midget" Fernekes, and his cell partner, Matthew Stewart, awaiting trial on three charges of robbery, were the first to saw out. A few minutes later Angelo Caggiano, utilizing the two bars sawed by McGeohegan and Stewart, and one he sawed himself, managed to crawl out of his cell.
Caggiano is awaiting trial for robbery. His cell mate, Gus Peterson, also awaiting trial on a robbery charge, did not leave the cell.
Sherif Peter Hoffman immediately ordered an investigation. An inspection of the cell block revealed that a bar on another cell confining three prisoners had been sawed, but the space was too small and the first prisoner who attempted to crawl through was held fast.

Accepts Bennett Presidency
Accepts Bennett Presidency
GREENSBORO, N. C., Aug. 16 (by The Associated Negro Press)—The board of trustees of Bennett College for Women, located here, announced today that David D. Jones, Atlanta, Ga., has accepted the presidency of the college, and will assume the duties of that office Sept. 1.
Mr. Jones is a graduate of Wesleyan College at Middletown. Conn., and has served efficiently as a student secretary of the international committee of the Y. M. C. A., as secretary of the Pine Street Y. M. C. A. of St. Louis, Mo., and as field secretary of the Commission on Inter-racial Cooperation, with headquarters in Atlanta, Ga.
It is the belief of the Board of Trustees that, under President Jones' administration, the hope of developing Bennett College into the foremost college for colored women in America will be realized.
Don't's for Girls
Don't nag. A terrible habit that grows like a weed is the nagging habit.
Don't be ushamed of your modest home, if it is well kept. This matter concerns you.
Don't forget that vanity ruins beauty, and blunts the mind.
Don't trust the man who urges
The college since 1573 has been operated by the M. E. Church as a coeducational institution. Recently a survey was made by a group of outstanding educators to determine how Bennett College could in a larger way serve its constituency and the surveyors concluded that the greatest need at the present time was for a woman's college; thus Bennett College was changed into a college for women.
The college alms to maintain high standards of scholarship and to inspire thorough work by all of the students. President Jones will be supported by a capable, efficient faculty, and a good year is expected.
President Jones, who is widely known throughout the country, is a brother of Bishop R. E. Jones.

Further U. S. Advice to Laundry Workers
In further discussing home laundering, the United States Department of Agriculture points out that the working surface of nearly all laundry equipment is too low. This places the woman operating it so out of balance that she is soon fatigued or makes it impossible for her to use force where it counts most. The top rim of the wash-tub should be placed so that the worker does not stoop from the shoulders.

Beauty Secrets
By
Mme.
Sara
Washington
Beauty is dependent solely upon health. If you are in a healthy condition, the hair is livelier, the complexion expels a radiant glow, the eyes sparkle, the poise and carriage are artistic and one is filled with vim, vigor and vitality. However, sleep is nature's greatest rejuvenator, and the health-seeker should avail herself of it to the fullest extent. You cannot be in a run-down condition, due to improper rest, and expect to improve your beauty or even retain it. Therefore, your sleep should not only be sufficient in duration but also in intensity and regularity.
The number of hours generally needed varies with circumstances, but the average is from seven to nine hours. The character of sleep depends largely on the mental attitude on going to bed. One's sleep should not be interrupted by dreams. But it is habitual for many persons to dream of the "policy numbers" or race horses. They are so absorbed in their hobby of playing the "numbers" and doping out their slips before going to bed that they carry their worries to sleep with them and are robbed of proper rest because of dreams. I have known of cases where persons kept a pencil and pad at their bedside and during a course of dreams would actually awaken and jot down the "dream numbers."
You should get in the habit of forgetting work and all cares at bedtime. If troubled with worries, above all try to banish them before going to bed. If you suggest to yourself the most pleasant thought which memory or imagination can conduce up, your sleep is likely to be more peaceful and restful than if you take your worries to bed to keep you awake until sleep comes in spite of them and to continue to plague you in your dreams.
So keep in mind that you need sufficient uninterrupted sleep. If you are worried or have been giving considerable thought to the "numbers" it is a good plan to read something diverting, but not exciting, just before retiring. Often abstruse books that require great mental concentration will prove serviceable in quieting the mind and inducing sleep.

Household Lore
If paper is used on your pantry shelves, put on three thicknesses at once. It is as easy to cut three layers as it is to cut one. The layers can be removed then, one at a time, as they become solled, a few dishes being removed and replaced as the paper is rolled away.
The box of a carpet sweeper should be frequently opened over dampened newspaper, the dirt emptied out and hair and lint cleaned from the brushes with a buttonhook, coarse comb or old scissors. The mechanicism should be kept properly oiled.
Folding napkins, towels and table linen in thirds lengthwise instead of quarters when ironing gives a much handsomer appearance.
When a suit or dress of dark serge becomes shiny with wear, sponge it with hot vinegar and press it in the usual way. No odor of vinegar will remain, the shine will disappear and the material will be much improved in appearance. The vinegar will leave no stain.
Have a small horseshoe magnet in your workbasket fastened to the end of a tape or ribbon of sufficient length so that it may be dropped to the floor to pick up scissors and needles.
Good Housekeeping
WHAT fun it would be—for you and for me—
To live where we, really were freer.
For housekeeping problems arise certainly
To perplex us, and, yes, to appear.
A continual round employing the time
When we long most a poem to write.
For we simply can't find a classified rhyme.
Where there's cooking or sweeping in sight.
What fun it would be if two pair of hands
Were allowed us—ah, then we could lift
One pair to the sky when poems run by
And catch some high rhythmical drift:
A juicy, large beefsteak we'd broil.
In this way, by shifting and happily assisting.
Better fun, though twould be, it sweeping and cooking
Swift vanished complete out of life.
And poetry's repeating—substituted for eating—
Then surely forgotten were strife!
For burning potatoes, losing track that tomatoes
Were cooking, while a little young rhyme
Was claiming attention, we'd ne'er have to mention;
Then Life we could style most sublime.
—Alice Matthews.
Mrs. Williams—I didn't get much sleep last night. It was 3 o'clock before my husband got the baby quieted.

THE FEMINIST VIEWPOINT
A PROFESSIONAL school for women has been established at La Paz by the Bolivian Government. This act is in response to a vigorous campaign conducted by women's clubs and societies in Bolivia.
"To enable a woman to maintain herself when on her own resources," is the fundamental purpose of such a public school.
Some thinkers may call this a step toward home-making, while others may call it a decided home-breaking act.
Without a doubt, the long debated question of "home or a career" comes into play. Will these women, when they have been graduated from such a school, be inclined to give up all hopes of having a family of their own? Will they be merely self-supporters that seldom get married? Or, will these women be self-supporting home-makers?—T. E. B.
Suggestions
twenty-four big okra pods, and with a slender boning knife scoop out as much pulp and seeds as possible. Mix these with one-fourth cup minced ham, one beaten egg and enough fine bread crumbs to make the consistency of a dough; season with salt and pepper. Pack this mixture into the pods, replace the cut off ends and secure them with bits of wooden toothpicks. Arrange okra in a baking dish. fill up chinks with fine bread crumbs, cover with a layer of grated cheese, pour over all one cup rich gravy or stock, cover the dish and bake for thirty minutes in a moderate oven. Remove cover and continue to cook until the pods are tender.
Cheese and Anchovy Sandwiches.
Cream two tablespoons, butter,
add one-fourth cup grated cheese
and one teaspoon vinegar. Season
with salt, paprika. mustard and
Anchovy sauce. Spread mixture
on thin slices of bread.
One-quarter pound smoked dried beef, thinly sliced; one cup scaled cream; one and one-half tablespoon flour.
Remove skin from meat and separate in pieces, cover with hot water, let stand ten minutes, and drain. Dilute flour with enough cold water to pour easily, making a smooth paste; add to cream and cook in double boiler ten minutes. Add beef and cook ten minutes more.
terms in chiffon remain on the fashion calendar. Models with jabots, ties, cape backs, soft bows and fluttering full skirts are still "smart" for late Summer and early Fall.

The Cook Says:
The bread box should be washed out frequently, dried and thoroughly aired by keeping the lid open a little. Thus the bread will never get a musty taste. To keep it from becoming too dry, place a small washed potato in the pan. Moisture is given off by the potato, but not enough to cause mildew.
Always have a bottle of onion juice in the kitchen. It is such a time-saver. It may be prepared by forcing onions through a meat shopper, using the smallest cutter, and then squeezing the pulp through a coarse piece of linen. The unpleasant smell may be removed from the hands by washing them with soap and water and rubbing them well with pumice.
When making small buns or cakes, flour the tins well instead of greasing them. This plan is much less expensive and the cakes never stick to the tin.
When making coffee do not put the pot over the flame, but place it in a pan of boiling water. This is a slow but excellent way of making the beverage and, furthermore, it will keep the coffee hot indefinitely and prevent it from boiling away. The coffee retains its fine flavor and does not become strong.
Always grease new pie plates, pot covers, sieves, tin cups and bread pans, with lard before using them and put them in a warm oven. They will never rust if treated in this way.
Clippings
There's no such thing as "unbiased opinion." If he has brains enough to form an opinion, he can't be a neutral.
Picking wild flowers without permission brings a $25 fine in Maryland. Why wasn't man constituted so that he would love to cut the weeds and let the wild flowers alone?

Several solos were also rendered. George Zeno of Brooklyn Lodge No. 32 of the Elks sang "Flee as a Bird to the Mountain" and Mrs. L. Alston, a Daughter Elk, sang "One Sweetly Solem Thought."

C. Blon Jones, Exalted Ruler of Progressive Lodge No. 35 of the Elks, and special deputy of the grand lodge for the state of N. J. and Emmanuel Broussard, Exalted Ruler of Jamaica lodge, brought condolence from their respective lodges.
Elks' Band
Exalted Ruler Thomas L. Higgins conducted the ritual. Past Exalted Ruler Eugene Gordon, who is secretary of the lodge, recited "Thanatopsis" in a very eloquent manner, and while so doing the Elka' quartet sang softly "Abide With Me." It is composed of M. Cary Johnson, George Leighton, William Murray and W. Brown. In keeping with the Elks' custom, a eulogy was delivered by one of the members. Past Grand Exalted Ruler George E. Wibecan, a close personal friend of the deceased, performing this task. He stated that it was one of the saddest duties he had ever been called upon to perform, a task he moved while delivering the eulogy. Wibecan stressed the honesty of Mr. Myers, calling attention to his handling of the lodge's money for over 20 years and not one shortage in that time.
Mr. Myers was one of the best known 32nd degree Masons in the state, and the members of the craft were out in large numbers. The members of Hiram Lodge No. 4, of which he was also a member, conducted their ritual for the dead, Past Master F. P. Giles of African Lodge No. 63 conducting this service. This was followed by the members of King David's Consistory No. 3, conducting the ritual for the dead. There were floral tributes in great profusion. They were borne in by a group of Daughter Elks chosen from Excelsior and Progressive Temples and Brooklyn lodge. The pallbearers were Peter Tucker, Thomas Merrifweather, Millard Holmes, Harrison Williams, George Brown, and William Johnson, all members of Brooklyn lodge.
John E. Myers was born in York, Pa., about 58 years ago, and at an early age he took up the trade of barber. He came to Brooklyn about 55 years ago and established a shop in the Flatbush section of the city, where he catered to some of the best known white people of the old city of Brooklyn. In the course of time he moved to the downtown section and established himself on Myrtle avenue, near Bridge street. His business grew and he sought larger quarters, moving to Duffield street. He remained on this street until his death, having his shop at 157½ Duffield street.
For over a year he had been suffering with stomach trouble and was in the hospital for some time. Later he seemed to improve, and returned to his business. While he had not fully recovered, through sheer will-power he would go to his place of business every day. On Saturday, Aug. 7, he collapsed at his shop and was taken home by friends and passed away on Aug. 11.
Mr. Myers was a great fraternal man. He helped organize Excelsior Lodge of K. of P., was a member of the B. O. of Free Gardeners and was made an honorary member of the Society of the Sons of North Carolina.
He is survived by a widow, Anna W. Myers, who is District Deputy of the Daughter Elks of the state of New York; two daughters, Mrs. Florence E. Dilworth and Mrs. Blanche Chase; two sons, Henry Walmsley and John E. Myers Jr.

Two men, one of them said to be colored, held up the grocery store of Thomas Roulston, Inc., at 64 Henry street, three blocks from Brooklyn Police Headquarters. The robbers obtained nearly $2,000 and then made their escape in the district manager's Ford, while two policemen emptied their revolvers in a vain attempt to halt them. A few minutes after 11 o'clock in the morning the pair entered the store carrying revolvers and sash rope, and without any preliminaries they ordered the manager of the store, Carl Henry, of 1686 Second avenue, Manhattan, and the district manager of the Roulston chain stores.

hurry. Then the pair tok $35 from
the cash register and left.

belonging to the Roulston company
in which Wilson makes his rounds. The motor was running. The bandits jumped in, turned on the gas and sped off up Henry street.
Wilson meanwhile had freed
himself and dashed out of the store
crying for the police as the robber
made off.
Patrolman Sylvester Flanagan
of the Poplar Street Station, who
was on post nearby, raced up the
street, firing after the retreating
car without success.
Patrolman James Perano heard
the shots, saw the car and joined
the chase, emptying his own pistol
at the hands.
They escaped by turning to the left and driving directly toward Fulton street and Borough Hall, the busiest section of Brooklyn.

Dempsey Convinced 13
Is His Unlucky Number
HUNTINGTON. Aug. 14.—Superstitions by nature, the same as Jack Dempsey's wife who refused to allow the champion to work out last Friday the 13th, Peter E. Dempsey, after his arrogance in traffic court yesterday for infringement of the State motor vehicle laws, is firmly convinced that 13 is not his lucky number. Dempsey, who was arrested for operating his car without a proper license, was served with summons No. 13. Yesterday was a busy day in local traffic court, and Dempsey was the thirteenth violator of the law to be called before Justice Leighton. After paying a fine of $10, which in his opinion should have been $13, Dempsey glanced at the calendar on his way out of court and was petrified upon noticing that it was the 13th day of the month and Friday at that.

Brooklyn Lawyer Not a Suicide, Says Wife
All of Brooklyn was shocked Friday, Aug. 15. to learn of the death of Counselor J. B. Bennett, who was killed at the 14th street station of the Lexington avenue division of the I. R. T., when he fell in front of an express train. According to reports, Mr. Bennett was waiting there for his wife, and as he saw her descending the stairs he walked towards her and then suddenly reeled and fell in front of the onrushing express train. Before the motorman could stop the train it had passed over his body, amputating a leg and an arm.
Mrs. Bennett was so overcome she fainted but was soon revived by a physician. It was evident at first that the lawyer had committed suicide, her Mrs. Bennett has denied this, saying that she knew of no reason for her husband taking his life.
Funeral services were held from his late home. 62 Brooklyn avenue, on Monday, Aug. 16. Mr. Bennett was 40 years old.
Interment was in the Evergreen Cemetery.

"IF I SHOULD FAIL"
If I should fail,
When I have done my best,
And striven hard
To meet each given test,
I will not bow my head,
But lift it up, instead,
And pray to Heaven. then,
For strength to try again.
If I should fail
In battling for the right,
My struggle prove
To be a losing fight,
Tho' driven from the field,
E'en then I will not yield,
But wait for season due
The struggle to renew.
If I should fail—
Should faint, and fall, and die
In closing hour
Triumphant I would cry
My heart is not afraid!
My soul is undismayed!
I've given the world my best,
And leave to God the rest!
LESSONS FROM THE FALL OF BABYLAND
Familiar is the Biblical record of the "Fall of the death of the king, Belshazzar. The Bible reads in the words: "That night was King Belshazzar, secular history gives us a more elaborate account of events.
The king, his lords and nobles, their wives and the enjoying a mighty feast in the royal palace, lived in abundance and where they were intoxicated, dizzy whirl of the dance. Intoxication resulted in the golden vessels taken from the temple in the very height of these orgies the king saw a key in the wall—writing the finish of his kingdom; then and the end of his life.
According to secular history and to traditional king and his guests were engaged in their revelry the Mede was tunneling and changing the River Euphrates, by which means they drained through it entered Babylon, stormed the royal king and subdued the nation.
Our nation is intoxicated by prosperity; its nomand; its young people are possessed with the Bohemianism and Epicureanism; the most sacred institutions are desecrated every day; moral abuses are lamentably depreciated; and, amid all of the ominous aspect of things we are reveling toazar and his royal guests.
While rulers and people are feasting, while they more indifferent to the higher principles, bolder in their attitude toward the God of nations, deceyency, morality and righteousness are vigorous,iously digging and undermining the very fourth our national superstructure rests—and that is inevitable destruction.
To speak a little more specifically, Sabbath briage sanctity, home purity, ethical environment, justice, equity, basic elements supporting being discredited and utterly disregarded. Bee laws, concubinage, disrespect for parents, laxity, lack of home discipline, inordinate vanity, boast, undisguised lawlessness, graft and corrupt judicial malfeasance and misfeasance are some of influences which are undermining the foundation.
While we celebrate the founding of the nation's progress, it behooves us to remember Babylon spirit and the Babylon transgressions will give the Babylon penalty. It would be well for us Kingling's lines:
LESSONS FROM THE FALL OF BABYLON
Familiar is the Biblical record of the "Fall of Babylon" and the death of the king, Belshazzar. The Bible record closes with the words: "That night was King Belshazzar slain"; but secular history gives us a more elaborate account of these tragic events.
The king, his lords and nobles, their wives and concubines were enjoying a mighty feast in the royal palace, where wine flowed in abundance and where they were intoxicated also by the dizzy whirl of the dance. Intoxication resulted in desecration of the golden vessels taken from the temple in Jerusalem. At the very height of these orgies the king saw a handwriting on the wall—writing the finish of his kingdom; the end of his reign and the end of his life.
According to secular history and to tradition, while the king and his guests were engaged in their revel the army of Lyrus the Mede was tunneling and changing the course of the River Euphrates, by which means they drained the channel and through it entered Babylon, stormed the royal palace, slew the king and subdued the nation.
Our nation is intoxicated by prosperity; its women are fashioned; its young people are possessed with the evil spirits of Behemianism and Epicureanism; the most sacred elements and institutions are desecrated every day; moral and spiritual values are lamentably depreciated; and, amid all of these and despite the ominous aspect of things we are reveling as did the bazaar and his royal guests.
While rulers and people are feasting, while they are growing more indifferent to the higher principles, bolder and more defiant in their attitude toward the God of nations, the enemies of decency, morality and righteousness are vigorously though inadvertently digging and undermining the very foundation on which our national superstructure rests—and that means certain inevitable destruction.
To speak a little more specifically, Sabbath observance, marriage sanctity, home purity, ethical environment, honor, honesty, justice, equity, basic elements supporting our nations are being discredited and utterly disregarded. Bohemianism, vice laws, concubinage, disrespect for parents, laxity in home life, lack of home discipline, inordinate vanity, boastful arrogance, undisguised lawlessness, graft and corruption, official and judicial malfeasance and misfeasance are some of the forces and influences which are undermining the foundation of our nation.
While we celebrate the founding of the nation and recount its progress, it behooves us to remember Babylon: for the Babylon spirit and the Babylon transgressions will merit and receive the Babylon penalty. It would be well for us to remember Kipling's lines:
"The tumult and the shouting dies,
The captains and the kings depart;
"Lord God of hosts, be with us yet
Lest we forget; lest we forget."
Reverting once more to the Supreme Authority, let us fix in our memory the text—"Righteousness exalteth a nation, but sin is a reproach to any people."
WHAT TO GIVE THE PEOPLE
In defense of its sensational, detailed publication of immorality yellow journalism maintains that its demands of the people for news. The same able by those who supply entertainment by means of moving pictures and other forms of amusement are giving the people what they want. But the view that they are corrupting the minds and lives of up false ideals, encouraging crime and more commercializing vice for mercenary purposes. Given the ministry is not clear of the charge of sentiment instead of creating sentiment of the rational kind; and this is true of all leaders who wield line of least resistance and have the good will moral or spiritual laxness makes them sensitive before a religious gathering a Negro minister say
In defense of its sensational, detailed publication of crime and immorality yellow journalism maintains that it is meeting the demands of the people for news. The same argument is made by those who supply entertainment by means of the theatre, moving pictures and other forms of amusement, i.e., that they are giving the people what they want. But these agencies know that they are corrupting the minds and lives of the people, setting up false ideals, encouraging crime and moral laxness, and commercializing vice for mercenary purposes.
Even the ministry is not clear of the charge of pandering to sentiment instead of creating sentiment of the right and the helpful kind; and this is true of all leaders who would follow the line of least resistance and have the good will of those whose moral or spiritual laxness makes them sensitive. Speaking before a religious gathering a Negro minister said, "Well, I know what the people of the different churches like and I give them just what they like. If I am talking to Methodists, Baptists, Presbyterians or any other church folk. I know exactly what will please them and I give it to them, for 'what it takes to suit them, believe me, I got it.'" And this minister was applauded.
But the high ground that should be taken by journalists, authors, ministers, parents and all others who duty it is to direct the thoughts and guide the lives of the people, is that these leaders, teachers, monitors should give the people not what they want, but what they need—the things that will contribute to their general well-being. Duty requires that the people be given what they need, rather than what they want!

The Proposed Palace of Liberal Arts and Manufactures, Covering Over 12,000 Square Feet.
Elaborate Plans Being Made for National Negro Exposition in 1927
To encourage men and women to enter manufacturing enterprises, elaborate plans are being made here for a National Negro Exposition in 1927. With possible resources of over $300,000 the event will be launched, having the support of large enterprises and industrial schools conducted by Negroes.
Prominent citizens and city officials have already expressed their willingness to aid in making the exposition a success. Mayor James Walker and Park Commissioner Gallatin have pledged their support in appropriating any desired and available city property for the event, which is to last from June 1 to October 31.
From the most obscured hamlet to the most modern city in which any kind of industry is carried on will be represented. These plans were made public by Tipp Beaver, well-to-do business man here, who is chairman of the committee in charge of the exposition.
The exposition ground will cover a space of about twenty-five acres. Plans are being made now for the erection of magnificent buildings. The most beautiful ones probably will be the Palace of Liberal Arts and Manufactures, covering over 12,000 square feet, and the Women's Palace of Art. Every church, fraternal and social organization will be featured on one day each week. A community chorus with 500 voices will give concerts every Sunday afternoon if the arranged program is carried out. Associated with Mr. Beaver are a large number of prominent business men. At the main office, 664 Lenox avenue. It was reported this week that the program was progressing rapidly. Mr. Beaver himself has had a varied business experience.
He is a native of Alabama and was the son of a wealthy store keeper. Starting as a sign painter for a number of traveling carnivals and shows, he later settled down in New York and secured work in a sign painting shop. From this position he went to the Fox Film Company where he assisted in doing art work for the corporation. Leaving the movie concern, he entered the sign painting business for himself. Just before the war, he added electrical display signs to his enterprise. Since that time his business has grown to the point where he holds contracts from a large number of big taxicab companies to put emblems and their rates on the machines.
Last year his establishment painted a copyrighted seal on over 4,000 taxicabs. Besides this he has been engaged in the engraving and construction business. To become directing head of the exposition, Mr. Beaver has retired from his own personal businesses. He is married and has nine children.
Charged with selling drugs, William "Tuck" Mitchell, 30, and his wife, Antolnette, 24, were arrested by Detective Higgins of the Narcotic Squad in their apartment at 156 West 131st street early Friday morning. Magistrate Gottlieb in Washington Heights Court held both without ball on a charge of having drugs in their possession.

Manhattan Man Drowned at Rockaway Beach
Charles Malase, of 2411 Fifth avenue, Manhattan, was drowned at Rockaway Beach, Sunday, Aug. 8. He was the only person of our group among the ten persons that were drowned in the metropolitan area during the week-end.
Malase's drowning, according to the police, was not due to his inability to swim, but to an attack of heart trouble, as this was the diagnosis made by the medical examiner of the city.
Malase's body was recovered by the life guards at Rockaway Beach, after a fierce battle with high seas and a strong undertow. As they brought him in they found that the man was dead.
His death was believed to have been caused by heart disease, as there was no evidence of submersion.
Friends of the dead man stated that he was an excellent swimmer.

Ira De A. Reed Reports That Negroes Hold Many Important Positions in the States of Ohio, Kentucky and Virginia
That Negroes are holding chemical companies and other plants was made known by Ira retary of the New York Urbaney vexed the industrial and labor Negroes in Ohio, Virginia and granted to an Amsterdam News. In observing the living conditions of industrial workers in the large centers, Mr. Reed expressed his surprise in finding such beautiful and clean communities. The racial feeling that exists in some places, he said, was rather remarkable. Pointing out Lexington, Ky., as a fine example, Mr. Reed told how the two groups took part in recreational activities together in a harmonious way. In Louisville, Ky., the secretary pointed out, there is a big business boom. The housing condition there for Negroes who are in good circumstances is excellent.
An interesting story surrounding the rise of an automobile washer in a white filling station containing over 11,000 gallons of gasoline to the managership was related by the surveyor. This station is located in Huntington, Va., and the hero of the story is Chester A. Thompson.
About three years ago Thompson secured a job as car washer at the U. C. It Filling station. A white manager hired him. The car washer, who had been a miner, watched the operation of the business rather closely.
Over eighteen months elapsed and the "big boss," the white owner of the concern made an inspection visit to the place. It was evident that the manager had misappropriated funds after the books had been audited. Disgusted with the loss, the owner fired the man in charge and ordered Thompson to dispose of the stock on hand at once.
Thompson, in disposing of the gasoline and other accessories on hand, did so well that the owner decided to allow him to run the business. The story has progressed now to the point where there are four Negroes and a white man working under his supervision.

a large number of Negroes. Mr. Reed told how a factory helper had been called upon by the heads of the concern to recruit workmen. The man himself has now advanced to factory manager and other men are employed as chemists in the research department and as chief electricians.
Another interesting situation was recalled by the industrial secretary from his observation in Lexington, Ky. Robert T. Togan, a contractor, is superintendent of the Combs Lumber Company. one of the largest mills in the central part of Kentucky. Aside from that he has been awarded a contract to erect a municipal building for the city.
Undertaker's Son Recovering From Recent Injuries
Kenneth Dillard, seven years old, of 86 Putnam avenue, son of Undertaker Warren Dillard, who met with an accident while on the excursion given by the Concord Baptist Church Sunday School, recently, is recovering.
Young Dillard, after reaching the grounds where the outing was held, went up a hill to play. It seems that a boulder became loosened as he ascended the hill and before he could get out of the way of the huge stone it struck him. He was knocked unconscious. One of the sons of Deacon Powell went to his assistance and brought him down the hill, where first aid treatments were administered and he was revived.
The lad sustained lacerations of the face, but fortunately escaped without any fractures. It had been feared at first that the boy had suffered a fractured skull.

"4-11-44" Ready for Big Start at Hurtig and Seamons Theatre
Hunter Show, with Host of Well-Known Stars, Will Open the Coming Saturday Night on 125th Street
For weeks they have been whiping the big show entitled "4-11-44" in shape at Hurting & Scanon's Theatre, on West 125th street, preparatory to the big opening, which takes place the coming Saturday night. We can say for this show that it will certainly be one well-rehearsed before it starts, for almost every night for the past week they have been staging the entire production, and all the people will be better perfect when the first curtain ascends.
Eddie Hunter will appear in his old spot in the show. He will be supported by almost every person that surrounded him in the old "How Come" and, if we are to judge by appearances, each and every individual appears to be going through the parts assigned them with a vim and enthusiasm one would expect down on the Big Street.
George Cooper, Amon Davis, Andrew Trible, Billy Mitchell, "Happy" Holmes, Leroy Broomfield, Gent and Perkins, Emma Jackson, Amon Greeley, Nina Hunter, Grave Rector and many others known to Harlemites will be in the rest. A full two hours' entertainment await those making the trip to 125th street, and they will be hours which will carry more comedy, singing, dancing, etc., than have been seen in these diggings for some time.
Ileent Tim Brynn has been personally on the job for the past four weeks getting the music together, and his orchestra is just rarin' to go. Tuneful numbers aound all through the show, and Tim has done everything in his power to help make the production the success it is bound to be. Hunter has and his heart set on this show all show and he is like a kid with a new toy. Here is where he will do the work that will bring out the best in him, as he is firmly convinced that with "11-14" his interests are centered for what true benefits can be derived.
Paris Underworld; Its Glamour and Tragedy
There is no fascination to equal the underworld of Paris. Its lure is felt throughout the earth's four corners. What strange clamour and heart-reading tragedy it holds is faithfully portrayed in the film version of "The Rat" in which Mate Marsh, Novello and Isahel Jeans are the leading stars. "The Rat" is the attraction at the Douglas Theatre next Saturday, Sunday and Monday.

The Monarch Bang, conducted by Lieutenant Fred W. Simpson, will give a concert on the Central Park Mall Wednesday night at 8.30, with Elizabeth Terrell, soprano, as soloist. This band is recognized as the direct successor of the 15th Infantry Band, which became well known abroad in the early days of the A. E. F., under the direction of the late Lieutenant James R. Europe. This concert closes the Wednesday night series of Central Park concerts arranged by the Park Department

The race was again represented on the concert numbers of WHN last Friday, evening when the radio audience was given the delightful treat of hearing Mrs. Duillel Doming, the youngest colored planiste, who rendered too very difficult numbers from Liszt. Mrs. Doming was presented with a gold medal last year when she appeared at Carnegie Hall. She shows marked ability and gives promise of great musical achievement in the future.
NEW YORK AMSTERDAM NEWS, WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 18, 1926
Manager Snyder Offers Another Unusual Picture
"It's the Old Army Game" Underlined for Showing Latter Half of This Week If more funny gags exist than have been used in W. C. Fields' first Paramount comedy, "It's the Old Army Game," which comes to the New Lincoln Theatre Thursday, your correspondent doesn't know of them. Fields' premiere as a motion picture star can only be characterized as—a walloping success.
"It's the Old Army Game" is the screamingly funny tale of Elmer Prettywille (W. C. Fields), owner of a drug store in a small Florida town. This shop serves as a meeting place for the townsopeople, and those who would buy stamps, magazines, books or use the telephone. In other words, everything is sold but—drugs.
Louise Brooks, a little lady who promises to create nothing short of a sensation, because of her portrayal as the girl Fields would like to marry, gives a mighty fine performance.
Among other things shown in this cinema circus is the young man who arrives in Florida, not to buy real estate—but to sell New York city lots to the Southerners! He being a handsome young peperster—and Louise being what she is—they fall in love with each other. How Fields manages to become involved in a case of fraud, goes to New York, and gets his love affairs straightened out take up the remainder of this comedy. All the way through the film one can detect the reliable guiding hand of Edward Sutherland, the director of "Behind the Front."
New Renaissance Ball Room to Open Next Week
Final Touches Being Put Upon the Well Known Casino and Crowds Planning to Be On Hand
After the first announcement of the plans going forward in making a complete change at the Renaissance Casino, those who have known the place ever since it has been catering to the colored people of Harlem appeared to entertain doubts as to the truth of the assertion that the things stated were being done.
But scores have been "crashing in" to give the place the once over and, naturally, the news they brought away has seeped through this section and now all hands believe that the ever popular Renaissance Casino will be a place well worth visiting after the big opening August 27.
They say that Paddy Mullins gives a correct imitation of a clam, but if the manager of Harry Wills can beat Manager Roach for silence the Gowanus Canal over which Paddy presides will go dry within the next few weeks. Roach has refused to be interviewed, silently waving newspapermen into the Casino, his only words being: "So that you can see for yourselves."
The place has undergone a re-

Laid in Singapore, "The Road to Mandalay" is replete with scenes thrilling and throbbing with all the mystery so known among the East Indians. Lovers of good pictures will flock to the Renaissance and enjoy this wonderful picture, which besides Chaney stars Lois Moran, Owen Moore and Henry B. Walthall.
Over week-end, Saturday, Sunday and Monday, August 21, 32 and 28, the attraction at the Renaissance will be Milton Sills in "Puppets." Pictures with thrills have been produced many times on the screen, but in "Puppets" it is said no greater thrilling picture has ever been produced on the screen.
With Gertrude Olmstead as the star, this picture should draw banner houses at each performance.
They Are Running in High at the Lafayette
Whitney and Tutt, Sarah Martin, Billy King, Willie Gant's Orchestra and Others on the Bill
That Frank Schiffman, general manager of the Lafayette Theatre, is far from being asleep on the job is evident by simply glancing at the bill he is offering at the Lafayette Theatre this week.
That something came into the wind to make the genial representative of the Brocher interests stretch out and gather such an array of talent is certain, and while we are not going to mention just what we think brought it about, the fact can remain for those who run as they read to see.
Whitney and Tutt and their revue came in and opened at this house Monday afternoon, to say nothing of Billy King, Sarah Martin and Willie Gant's Paradise Warbler from Small's Paradise Cabaret. This is quite an array of talent and it is needless for us to go into details. The entire bunch are known wherever we seek entertainment, and that means everywhere. The same old standing room crowd made the Lafayette room despite the raft, and it will take no prophet to predict that all this week bumper houses will be the result of that bill gathered together by the Lafayette management.
Somewhere along the allied front lies the mythical Kingdom of Spenzonia. The Queen's Chateau is serving as a war hospital. Bob Howard, an American, and his buddy gunner are patients. Bob, his face swathed in banages, is in love with Princess Elena, and she with him. But at the signing of the Armistice he is swept back to the States. She has nothing but a memory to console her.
A year later Bob starts for Europe to find his pretty nurse. On

Re on the "Up and Up'
at Madison Square Ga
From the source we have always considered authoritative comes word of a strong attempt to take the middleweight title away from Tiger Flowers on Thursday night at Madison Square Garden in the event of Harry Greb being on his feet at the end of the fight. This information, coupled with the more mish which has been going the rounds in the past, apparently lends a charm of reality to what, in different circumstances, would be looked upon as a press agent, story.
Walk Miller, manager of the Tiger, has informed The Amsterdam News that he will go before the Boxing Commission on Tuesday in an attempt to spike any under cover stuff that might be pulled at Tex Rickard's fight house Thursday. "I am going before the commission in order to best of fair play" invades them in his communication to this paper, "and at the same time I am going to request that the commission do everything possible to see that impartial and unprejudiced officials are appointed to judge the match." Miller also thinks that there are over 600,000 colored people living in Harlem to whom he would like to make an appeal to send a representative gathering to voice the disappointment there are not any such amount of our people here in Harlem and we would strongly advise all colored men and "women to keep their dough in their pockets.
We do this with regret, as we hate to see the Tiger lose any of the monetary spoils that that would perhaps go to him, but since Tex Rickard has absolutely refused to give Harry Wills a chance at the most important title in the fictile game, we believe that any money contributed to Madison Square Garden at this time is simply helping to make the Negro hating Texan stronger and indirectly giving him more power to continue to keep him alive and to be a sensible citizen of this country out of his just claim.
Just at this time the deal handed to Wills and his argument with Dempsey has the fisticible situation in a serious state, Miller believes, and so do we. Dollars, dollars, dollars. That's the thing that makes the mare go and she cannot

For five years they have lied and resorted to all kinds of unfair tactics to keep Dempsey from getting the beating which should have been the lot of the late war's shocker long ago, and if Negroes would but wake up to the power behind money when it is judiciously withheld they would think twice before throwing any more dough into the coffers of Rickard, The Tiger won't miss our money, and the money from the white folks which will swell his end belongs to us anyway if we must be repaid for the many years of free labor enjoyed by the "Colonels" and "Missuses" of the South who sat in the shade while our grandfathers and grandmothers toiled without pay to help make them rich.
Not So,
Brutus!
"THINGS," said Miranda Tattler to us Tuesday night, August 3. "are very slow in sport these days. Don't you find it so."
WHICH naturally gave us a quiet laugh, for Alvin to show us the night previous had remarked that in spite of the fast approaching handicap of age it was wonderful how we managed to secure the matter we do.
THEN, to make sure that things were far from being slow in sport, at least with us, we looked over the pages of sport in this paper carefully and found that we had no reason to be the most exacting—on how we do it ourselves.
AND the thins we carry that no other paper of this kind carry are legion. Starting on page thirteen we found that the Commissioners of the Eastern Colored baseball team held their big moment in Philadelphia, where the Greb-Flowers fight and been put back to August 19 and the Harrisonburg Giants had defeated the Farmers at the latter's oval.
CONTINUING to the fourth column we saw where Harold Strom had starred at the New York Oral in a big cricket match which drew almost two thousand fans to see Margesot's team defeat the crack Bermudians. in the same column a report appeared of the light beating De Luca wherein the former received the decision; also an account of the change of the New York Orientals to the New York Braves.
THE account of the defeat of the Bacharach Glants by the Lincoln Glants tops the fifth column, followed by the account of the defeat of the New York Cricket League and the report of the intended match between Chick Suggs and Pete Sarmiento at Madison Square Garden. Up next is up by the Salem-Crescent Athletic Club, showing where boxers from that club did not fare so well at the bounds of the Crescent Athletic and also the defeat of Mickey McCann, the crack Salemite, cunning Lee.
SKIPPING, back to our "head" sport page, we find the brilliant Francis telling of the victory of Eyre Scat of New York and Lulu Bailard of Philadelphia at the tenure of tournaments. David Bordray of its kind appearing in any paper in this country. In the next column William Pickens writes interestingly on "Wills-Dempsey-Tunney," followed by the defeat of the Hands of the club. In the next column we find, under the head of "Oh. You Lloyd!" sidelights on the victory of the Lincoln Giants over the Bucharachs, and below the account of the defeat of the famous Bay Ridge nine taking its place.
In the fifth column our special tennis writer, Francis, again appears with the only comprehensive account of the New York State tennis team, right here in Harlem and in the sixth we find where the Hildale boys had blanked the Harrisburg Giants in another game. The next column is given over to the audition of George Godfrey to New York to help fight the claims being put forth by Dr. Caffrey aenct the management of George, who, by the way, says that Jimmy Dougherty of Vassar College has recognized that he recognizes. For lack of space we carried over the account

The "Tiger" Is Ready
THE WRESTLING TEAM
WALK MILLER, Manager of "TIGER" FLOWERS Shown in Center, and "OLD FOLKS," Trainer of the Georgia Sunflower. Who Will Give Harry Greb a Chance to Come Back at Madison Square Garden on Thursday Night.
DEMPSEY'S NEW CHAMPIONSHIP
Dempsey was champion boxer, then champion dodger, and now, according to Harry Wills, he has become the champion liar. Thru all this rotten lying and dodging, on the part of the boxer and some members of the Boxing Commission, Wills has kept dignifiedly silent. But there comes a time when silence is a weakness, not a virtue.
It is time for all of us to speak plain language. Here goes: if Wills were champion and Dempsey challenger, and the black champion had dodged the white challenger as much as Dempsey has dodged Wills, the Negro would have been uncrowned, not only by the New York Commission, but also by the New York City Police, who would not be a place left where he could box for an orphan's milk fund. Any such dodging black champion would have been called "yellow" in so many different dialects that he would stand as a disgrace to his entire race.
Harry Wills was not talking rashly when he questioned Dempsey's veracity. For example, Dempsey had the brazen face to say that for five years he has been trying to get Harry into the ring! We must at least compliment Dempsey's nerve; it certainly takes nerve to say publicly, boldly and in big print. Dempsey knows is untrue. Wills has been the one chasing Dempsey, since the memory of the fan runneth not to the contrary.
A few questions will make that clear. Has the boxing commission ever had to threaten Willis to try to make him contract with Dempsey? Has the commission ever had to order Willis to set a date for a bout with Dempsey? Has Willis ever forfeited $50,000.00 just to keep from meeting Dempsey? Has any promoter ever had to get an injunction against Willis to try to make him live up to contract to box Dempsey? Has Willis ever pretended, as Dempsey has pretended, that the lack of financial inducement stood in the way? Has been having a tough time with Dempsey? Only Jack would fight. If money were the consideration to Harry believe us, he could get more money by agreeing to "lie down" to Dempsey, or sell out in some way, than he could ever get by licking Dempsey.
When we compare the character, cleanness and manhood of the two men today, we can say, sincerely, that we would rather be in the same race with a Harry Willis than to belong to anything that claimed Jack Dempsey as a member.
Now, If Dempsey does not trade off his title to Tunney, so as to get out of hot water by letting another white man in to keep up the dodging for another five years—if Tunney should happen to be licked—(by an accidental blow from Dempsey), what excuse will Dempsey next give to keep from risking battle with his only rival—Harry Willis?
WILLIAM PICKENS.
of the billiard players to the theatrical pages.
SAY, do you see where sport is slow after reading the Amsterdam News? Not by a long shot, but Perhaps Mirandy did not have a chance to glim the pages. When sport does get slow with us we cannot be forced out. Don't take our word for it, but look over the pages today, compare them with all those claiming to be rivals, and form your own conclusion.
DO you notice how these amateur fighters of the Salem-Crescent Athletic Club continue to make history? That boy Canada Lee is some pumpkins, to say nothing of the other fighters whom you see every week. So far the Amsterdam News is the only paper in these diggings giving a full-and detailed account of the amateur bouts—and other things in the athletic world.

the running champion will never forget. If ever a man gained a moral victory, another man it will. Wills and Wills rose and gave the colorful fighter the giad hand. Dempsey shook Wills' hand gracefully because, it was a man you do. And, remember this: '1722 CROWD STAGING THE STRONTE-STRATION STOOD NINETY-EIGHTY. ONLY YOU CAN WHITE. Yet they'll tell you there isn't any demand for the fight between Wills and Dempsey.
Wibecan and Moore
Winners at New Haven
NEW HAVEN. Aug. 12.—Gus Moore and Kenneth Wibecan, two runners who formerly starred for Boys' High School in Brooklyn, won their events in the New Haven police field day games here yesterday. Moore, who now represents the Century A. C., captured the one-mile run, his time being 4:35. Wibecan, also of the Century A. C., took the 100-yard dash in 0:10 1-0.

Tiger' Flowers Contributes Five Thousand Dollars to Julian's Flight
Aviator Shows Letter From Federal Aircraft Company Acknowledging Receipt of Money
If everything is what it appears to be on the surface, Lleut, Herbert Julian is really sitting on the top of the world. Julian came into the office of the Amsterdam News on Monday night, and showed us a letter from the Federal Aircraft Company acknowledging receipt of five thousand dollars which has been contributed by "Tiger" Flowers towards the purchase of the plane with which he plans the transatlantic flight early in September.
There is nothing else for us to do but believe the truth of Julian's assertion in the face of what he has so far disclosed to us, and when it becomes known that the middleweight champion of the world has contributed a large sum to Julian for the purchase of his knifes thousands will join the knifs that roots for "Tiger" Flowers. Our only regret in the whole matter is the fact that the "Tiger" is fighting for Texas Rickard on Thursday night at Madison Square Garden. Had it been for Lew Raymond at the Queensboro or Humbert Fugazy or any one of the other promoters, we could wax enthusiastic and ask ourselves out and give the "Tiger" a rousing dose of thanks for what he has done.
But it won't be too late after Flowers has defeated Greb to bring him to Harlem and stage a banquet in his honor to let him know what we think of him. We can assure Walk Miller that we have no priorance against the force of the crowd, but help but showing our human side in denouncing Rickard for the part he is playing keeping Wills-out of his chance.
We want the "Tiger" to come to Harlem so that we can all join in a big tribute to him. As a fighter he has been a gentleman and has brought, added prestige to the game. He has fought hard, canvassed and has always come to the fore in behalf of his people whenever the call reached him. We are for Flowers and Miller but very much against Rickard.
Braves Win and Lose
The New York Braves divided a doubleheader at the Jasper Oval on Sunday.
"Bill" Howell, on the mound for the first game, made it his fourth straight win this season, when he defeated the Amity nine, white, to win.
In the second the Braves were ambushed in the ninth by the Pirates to the score of 5-5 and made it the third game this season the Braves have lost.

JUSTICE DONE
The License Committee, which has the power to give or withhold a license to Jack Dempsey, on Monday evening turned down the application of the white heavyweight champion to meet Gene Tunney at the Yankee Stadium on September 16.
This is justice to Wills, although we have our doubts about the decision holding good. For ways that are dark and tricks that are mean, the heathen Chinese is an angel compared with some of his white brothers in this neck to the woods. Messrs. Farley, Phelan and Wear have lived up to the rules as written and which Messrs. Browser and Muldoon have abrogated because of their desire to favor Tex Rickard. Having been denied a license to appear in the ring here with any other fighter than Harry Wills, we can but wait and see the next move made in behalf of Dempsey. That he has no intention of meeting Wills is certain, for, like a child in the dark, he is terribly afraid of the black man.
Trying to Bluff Us on Bill Tate
The public prints are carrying long stories on the workouts of Jack Dempsey at his training camp. The chief feature of interest which Witch Igoe of the New York World, least of the disciples slinging ink for a living, sees in Dempsey's training for Tunney is the fact that Big Bill Tate is in camp. So as to make the fans believe he has no color prejudice, Dempsey is using Tate's more freely in speaking of the manner in which he train, and Hype, blessed all through the Wills-Dempsey affair, is at the training camp to help put Dempsey over on the New York public.
Dempsey says Tate is the greatest heavyweight in the world. Yeh. Jack thinks so and proves just why he doesn't want any part of Harry Wills. If Tate is the greatest heavy in the world then we are the greatest. Lightweight that ever was, we can beat Dempsey that the only time Big Bill ever thinks of meeting Harry Wills it is for the loser's end and not because Bill feels that he has a chance.

TUSKEGEE AT PHILADELPHIA
TUSKEGEE AT PHILADELPHIA
Arrangements have been completed for staging the game between Tuskegee and Lincoln at Franklin Field, the home grounds of the University of Pennsylvania. Tentative plans have been made for holding the game at the stadium of the Sesqui-Centennial, but because of the large expense involved, and the better situation of Franklin Field, it was deemed advisable to make the change. To attend games at the Sesqui-Centennial stadium it was necessary to pay an entrance fee to the exposition first, and the additional price of entrance to the game.
This will be the first time that any Negro institution has had the use of Franklin Field, and it is felt that because of the many attractions of this well known stadium, and the fact that Negro athletes are given suchicular recognition at the Annual Pennsylvania Games, the general public will be more inclined to liberally patronize what is going to be the biggest inter-sectional contest ever staged between colored schools. Coach Young is confronted with the problem of building an entirely new team. At the present time it looks as if Captain Grasby is to be the only regular from last year who will form the squad for 1926. The coaching staff this year will consist of U. S. Young, Dr. Ernest Martin and T. R. Wall.
Ned Gourdin to Appear in Pentathlon

Darby Ball Players Put End to Winning Streak of Bushwicks
But Are Blanked in Second Game, When White Players Came From the Rear With a Rush and Started Clout Fest
The Bushwicks' winning streak came to an abrupt finish at four straight in the first game of their double header with the Hilldales of Darby, Pa., at Dexter Park, last Sunday, but the excellent twirling of Joe Kaiser, of the Brooklyn Savings Bank League, and Freddie Robhman's latest acquisition, made it seem like a perfect day for the office. Thomas' infield out and Carr's scratch bingle gave the visitors their tally. Lai's short single, Irving's one-timer, Dennehey's scratch and Goebel's single manufactured the Bushwicks' brace of points.
Carr singled through second to start the fatal eleventh, Washington got a base on Irving's error. Robinson sacrificed, Lee bunted safely and Briggs sacrificed. The scores:

The largest crowd to witness a colored baseball series all season taxed the seating capacity of the Catholic Protectory Oval last Sunday. Aug. 15, to witness the only local series between the Lincoln Giants and Cuban Stars. Neither team showed marked superiority over the other in the series on Sunday, but earlier in the week the Cubans won three games from the Lincolns.
With Glsentaner pitching airtight ball, the Lincolns won the first of the Bronx series by a score of 7-2. The Cubans' only scores came as the result of a home run by Dehigo with Crespo on first.
The second game was won by the Cubans after Chambers had lost some of his usual control in the fourth inning and walked two men. Three safe bingles in a row followed, which gave the visitors four runs. Manager Lloyd was forced to take Chambers out in the sixth inning, when he again became wild. Gilmore finished the game.
Baro, the speedy Cuban left hander, pitched his team to victory. He allowed only seven scattered hits—George Johnson and Finley leading their team-mates with two each. The fielding of Oms was another feature of this game.

The Bushwicks' winning streak came to an abrupt finish at four straight in the first game of their double header with the Hilldales of Darby, Pa., at Dexter Park, last Sunday, but the excellent twirling of Joe Kaiser, of the Brooklyn Savings Bank League, and Freddie Johman's latest acquisition, made it seem like a perfect day for the Woodhaven athletes. Jack Warhop, the little underhand expert, who has been pitching fine ball of late, turned in another good game in the opener, but his hurling was not quite good enough to discount that of Lee. The colored team's round entry outlasted Warhop in a battle that went 11 innings and won by a score of 5 to 3. One of the Hilldale runs was unearned, Kaiser hooked up with Campbell in the nightcap and turned back the Pennsylvanians with five hits. Campbell allowed five blows also, but he weakened with shabby support behind him and the Bushwicks set four runs, two of them unearned.
Ted Dennehey. Bushwick centre holder, and Carr, the visitors' first baseman, did some tall sticking in the opener, each getting three hits in the turns. The fielding of Jack McVoy. Bushwick first baseman, was a feature of each game. Mac accepted a total of 25 chances in the two contests.
These runs in the sixth frame sweed up the twilight tilt for the Bushwicks. Bobinson sent the Bushwicks on their way by bunting Pee Wee Dean's bid for a base after Welss was thrown out. Dennehey singled to right, sending Dean to third, after which Eddie Gobel walked. McVoy then shot a timely single to right that scored Dean and Dennehey. Goebel sprinted home and beat the throw-in.
The Hilldales got the jump on the first game by scoring two markers in the opening canto. Briggs was distressed off by Warhop, went to second on Warfield's sacrifice and stole third, from where he scored on Mackey's sacrifice fly. Johnson doubled, Thomas walked and Carr snapped for the second run. The Bushwicks did not break into the scoring column until the sixth session when Dean was hit by a pitched ball and Dennehue doubled to right after two were out. Another run in the eighth inning made the Hilldales' lead look as big as a mountain, but the Bushwicks made a game comeback in their half and knotted the count. Mackey's single, Johnson's sacri-

IDEALS AGAIN DEFEAT BLUES
In an inter-club match game on Sunday, Aug. 15, on their courts at West 13$8$th street, the Ideal Tennis Club defeated the Blue Bird 4 games to 3 in a very interesting series of matches.
The chief feature of the games was the wonderful playing of young Reggie Weir, the junior star of the Ideals, who is fast becoming their chief dependent in match games, also the other junior, Charley Wilson, who, if he takes the game seriously, will be one of the coming players of the next few years.
Young Weir engaged in three matches for his club, all against older and more experienced players in every instance, and came out victor in every one.
He first tackled Mina, one of the best players of the Blue Birds, and trimmed him at 5-6, 6-2, then paired with Stephens they de-

Warren Again Clouts De Mave
We had no space for it, last week, but it is the truth again. Over in New Jersey that sedate looking person called Jack Warren met the "Golden Boy," Jack De Mave, in a return bout last week and what he did to Tom Fahy's would-be meal ticket was a caution. The Hoboken Blond knocked Warren down in the first round and thought it was all over for the night, but the colored fighter got up and made De Mave sorry he took such liberties. He pounded the once promising white hope into submission in the clinches and out of the clinches.
The colored fighter had the white boy guessing and some rapler-like rights and hetty lefts which De Mave swung only landed where Warren happened to have been a second before. In other words, De Mave was swinging like the proverbial gate. Warren, of course, was not credited with a victory and knowing what we do about the hardships to be endured by colored fighters, did not expect it even though he knew he won the fight.

Bishop Fisher Writes of the
Recent Methodist Bishops’ Banquet
: —_—
WASHINGTON, Aug. 16. — The California Christian
Advocate, in stating that there has been not a little writ-
ing on the subject of the Bishops’ Banquet, which obvi-
ously was in advance of accurate information on the sub-
ject, publishes an interesting statement, originally prepared
for the Christian Century by Bishop Frederick Fisher, who
“A divsh of shame warms my
cheek as I write these lines, be-
gsuse I was actually present at
the social union banquet in Wash-
ington referred to in editorials in
‘The Christian Century, Zion's Her-

Advocate, and other periodicals.

“Aster the event was over and
tho visitors began to compare
notes, it dawned upon them that
‘color’ might have entered into the

Someone has said in referring to
the social Ufe as a part of the
burch program thet “the word
‘social’ “means a money-meking
sebeme and the church ought, not
to resort to such means of making,
money. The devil can't pay our
expenses: if he does he wants an
{nterest in the business." What
4s needed here is a broader idea
of the unselfish purpose of social
getherings.
‘Another misconception is the
supposed opposition between so-
cial and spiritual life: some say
that the social life cannot save
anyone. “What the church needs
ig not social life but more spiritual
Ute,” is their common expression.
The two are thus divorced from
each other instead of identified.
Social life ought to be spiritual
and trae spiritual Ife is social.
Everything that brings men to-
gether in helpful companioship
makes for the extension of the
Wngdom of God.

He and thousands of children,
trom mere babies to adolescence,
can find no better’ piace to play
than the streets. No boy who has
not been trained to play properly
can establish right attitudes of

of amusement without becoming
more or less frivolous and shallow.
‘The young people who can find
no better outlet for their craving

presented to the full meeting of

themselves ot records as protes-
tanta,
“But my shame comes from the
fact that I did actually attend the
turetion and did not see the de-
leted ‘black’ names; nor was I
even discerning enough to sense
anything wrong. I still hope the
local committees may be able to
show that It Was not color that de-
termined the plan. However, no
matter what any bishop or ‘sny
committees may say—it happened.
Personally, I repent in sackcloth
and ashes for my lack of percep-
tion, And several other bishops
have expressed to me their shame
and sorrow.
“This unfortunate circumstance
shows how deep-rooted these racial
conceptions are; and if it serves
to challenge us to our lack of true
Christionity, it will be worth ‘the
loss which must come to the
church because of it... The
missionary program today — in
fact. the whole Christian program
—has ceased to.be one ot geo-
graphical expansion only, and has
decome a program of necessitous
readjustment of individual and so-
clal character on the part of the
messenger and those who send
him.”

“Who Killed the King of the Negro Underworld?”
THE WHIRLPOOL)
Read This First
While fighting with Richard Nelson, “Nero Brock-
er." king of the Negro underworld, is mysteriously
killed with a dagger. Nelson, who had gone to see
Brocker concerning the latter’s insult to his fiancee,
Laura Stevens, earlier in the day, was alone with
'Brocker in the room where he was killed. Nelson
‘is arrested and charged with the murder. While in
prison he is visited by his lawyer, Frank Greene, and
later by Laura Stevens.
Nelson's trial, which started a few weeks, later,
is attended and followed with keen interest by all
of Harlem. Several witnesses have given their testi-
mony. both for the prosecution and defense, when
Nelson's lawyer suddenly calls Laura Stevens, the
accused man’s fiancee, to the witness stand. Laura
tells of Brocker's insult to her when she went to his
apartment on business for her employer,
Attorneys for the state and defense sum up their
cases and after the judge charges the jury it retires
‘to deliberate on Nelson's guilt or innocence. The
jury reaches a verdict and returns to the courtroom.

would be, the only.-doubt was as to its degree.

zaswered the*foreman.
‘The people gasped. No one had expected such a drastic
edsion® “theis conviction of Nelson’s guilt was softened
‘by the motive that had prompted the killing, and by the
“act that, after all, Brocker’s death was no loss to the
community,

Therefore. he was not surprised at the verdict. Yet, it
came down upon him like an expected but crushing load.
He felt numb, as if part of him were dead already, and at
first he did not hear the order to rise. Finally, he rose
with uncertainty to his feet, like a drugged man.
The ‘judge faced him, stern and inexorable.
“Richard Nelson; after a fair trial, you have been
found guilty of murder in the first degree. You are an
educated young man, a college graduate. You knew be-
forehand the consequences of your action. You allowed
yourseli to cherish murderous intentions, till they cul-
minated in the killing of James: Brocker.” Can you offer
any reason why the extreme penalty oi the law. should
not be visited upon you?"
“J did not kill him, I did not kill him,” repeated Nelson
dully. “That's all, I did not do it.”
The judge waited a-moment, and then pronounced the
fatal words.
“Richard Nelson’ you are sentenced to death. May
God have mercy on your soul!”
Two officers advanced upon Nelson and one stood on
cach side of him. He felt as if he were passing through .a
bad dream. Some women in the courtroom began to sob.
-\s the officers started to lead him away Laura Stevens
broke. from the crowd and frantically threw. her. arms
around him,
“Dick, my Dick!" she screamed. “They can‘t—they
caa't kill you. You are innocent. before God—”
‘The officers ‘grimly separated them and Dick, hardly
secing where lie went. was led up ‘the aisle. He could:not
speak. he felt as i? some hand of iron were gripping” his
heart. Finally he dropped upon a couch, a great door
clanged and he realized: he was back ‘in his cell.
‘Thea every nerve in him suddenly came to life again.
The blond of youth, so soon’ to: be still forever, awoke
and rushed thtough his body, rebelling against the in-
fustice. of su-calléd justice. He leaped up -and beat. the

How to Attract the
Wild Birds
By RHEA KIMBERLEY JOHNSON
HE simpler the bird-houses or nesting-boxes, the bet-
ter the birds seem to like them. Remember, the
birds are not attracted either by the beauty nor
uniqueness of a bird-house. Nature intended certain
species to nest in holes in dead trees. The woodlands
with natural homes for these birds are disappearing. The
birds are forced to accept anything. similar as a substi-
ture. Nothing could be a better substitute: than a piece
of a hollow limb. If it is closed at top and bottom with
a piece of wood or tin, a hole bored in the limb—about
one-third the way. down from the top so that the birds
can get in and out—there is no finer -bird-house to be
found. Many people make the mistake of putting the en-
trance hole of the bird-house too near the bottom. I. have
seen many . beautifully. made .and - expensive bird-houses
which I would not have taken as a gilt because they did
mot serve the purpose for which they were made—to at~
tract the birds— as the entrance was not in the place that
the birds like to have it. The jeathered people like to
put in plenty of nesting material in the bottom of their
nests. They do not want cold, damp air blowing in on
their uestings. These are the two main reasons why the
hole should be nearer the top than the bottom,
One can hang Ddird-houses
from a limb or mail them to a
stump or tree. Never put them
too low or where they ‘will be
easy for a cat to reach. Some
people say that the wrens will

placed a bird-house, made from
a piece of old apple-bough. un-

about 12 feet above the ground.
For the last three Summers
that house has been the home of
two and three broods each

sometimes the bluebirds set

the wrens. We always know

have had have been made from

_ Laura was at the station with her mother and Greene,
his lawyer. The officers let her kiss him, then she fainted
in her mother's arms. .
The train started, roared through the tunnel and
reached the open country, like a relentless monster beat-
ing him away from life and love. Ir was a bright morn-
ing, the sunlight sparkled on the river and played over
the beautiful fields and hillsides of the Hudson Valley.
Dick looked out once or tice. It looked.as if nature
had put on her most attractive look simply to torture him
with a last sight of the life he was leaving behind for-
ever. No more green jields fur him,.no more blue sky,
or flowers. or sunlight, nothing but black death and a
murderer's grave.
At Sing Sing he was put through the formalities. to
which he paid litrle attention. Nothing seemed to matter.
They took him out-into the yard and the death-house
stood before him. As he approached it a curl of smoke
came from the chimney, and with his first mental impulse
since his trial he wondered if that smoke was the an-
nouncement of an execution. Was some man in that
terrible chair being shocked to death, as he too would be
in his turn? And was that other man innocent, 1007
They put him in his cell at last and-he began that
awful round ‘of a condemned man’s days, each day cutting

remembered the date set for his death. ‘He paid no
attention’ to it when he first heard it, and had been too
numb with misery for it to make an impression on him.
‘The date was tie last day of July.” Tt was’ then’ the
Gwenty-fifth of June, Thirty-six days more to live.
Like a shock another thought came to him. “The last
of-July-was-his birthday. By what diabolical chance had
the court chosen that date? Jt seemed as if everything had
conspired to torture him,
He passed the days.in agony. going over and over the

Yet he had*not intended::te kill Brocker. He had come

who had told him that Brocker had inveigled her young

pursuit of children under age. and his immunity’ because

Old Payroll Shows
Pay of Slaves
MOBILE, Ala—The cware-
lhouse of the Mobile and Ohio
Raflroad has given up several
payrolls made out to slave own-
ers, the oldest having been made
out and signed by Oliver Beers,
former slave owner connected
with the M. & O. in 1858, three
years before the civil war.
On the list were such names
of slaves a8 Tom, Washington,
Anthony, Jefferson and John.
Each worked in section gangs of
the M, & O. before the civil war.
‘They were “worth” $20 or $35

ical abilities,

ly legible despite its age, the

his mind to gather all the data possible and then write a |
scorching series of articles that should compel the prosecu-
tion of Brocker or drive him out of town. That was all
he meant by saying he would “get” Brocker, but, in con-
nection with the murder, it was enough to convict him of
premeditation. . . .
He felt like a man who goes swimming in an innocent
iockiag stream and suddenly finds himself in 2 whirlpool, ,
“That's it? he murmured hopclessly,. “a whirlpool, 2
whirlpool. Down, down, down, to death!”
One day Rev. Worthley, Laura's pastor, came to see
him, and talked with hima long time. The pastor was
wise. and as much a man as he was a minister.
“Richard.” he said when taking his leave, “the evidence
is all against you, and'yet I'cannot believe you killed the
man. Americans don't kill with daggers. But, of course,
jt would be said that you, an educated man, chose a for-
eign-looking weapon to divert suspicion, Anyhow, I
don't believe it. I have supreme faith that my God will
not let you die for something you never did. “Something
must turn up; it's got to.”
“I have only two weeks to live.” replied Dick.
Taura’s visits were hardest to bear. She came to
sce him as often as she was allowed.
Now, Laura,” he told her one day, “you are a brave
girl by ‘nature and by habits. Think_as ‘little of me as
you can and plunge into your work. Do you still keep up
your Sundav School class?” '
“I try, Dick, as much as I can. It’s the only relief I
can find. Doing something for somebody does scem to
help me.”
“How is the little Cuban ‘girl—Juanita—Bonita—whose
father was so crazy about her?”
“Bonita Padilla?’ she interrupted. “Why, Dick, you’ve
forgotten, and no wonder, after what you've been through.
Bonita Padilla died two weeks before this trial of yours
came up.”
“Yes, yes, I remember now.”
“Her death was rather a mystery to me,” continued
Laura, “and I couldn’t get much information about it. Her
father was like a madman. No wonder—she was stich 2
sweet—Dick! Dick Dick!” E
“What is it?* he asked wonderingly. s
Laura had clapped her hands to her head.
“Maybe—maybe——,” she said, and pauscd. © “Oh,
heavens, it’s just possible!”
“What do you mean?" 7
“Oh, Iet me think!” she cried, her eyes stretching;
then suddenly she burst out with @ cry,
“Dick, you're saved!" .

Life of Maid
(Preston News Service)
Among the various stories being sent to The Daily Worker, a publication in Chicago, in a contest the following was awarded third prize: Maggie is a colored girl of 14. She has two brothers and two sisters younger than her. Her father died leaving her mother to care for the five children. Maggie's mother works as a cook in one of Chicago's restaurants. It is very hard for them to get along with the $17 a week that she earns. Maggie's mother decided to send Maggie to work to help make both ends meet. Maggie went to an employment office. After paying a few dollars she was sent to work in a doctor's home as a maid. The doctor paid her $6 a week and her meals. If she happens to go out on the street and starts to play with the other girls and forgets for a while she is a maid, her mistress calls to her and says: "Maggie, where are you? Come here quickly. The baby is crying." Poor Maggie then realizes that she cannot enjoy herself as the other children do but must work. She is a maid. She cannot play with the other children. She must help her mother to provide the necessaries of life to her brothers and sisters.
She goes back into the house. Tends to the baby. As soon as the baby is asleep she sweeps the floors, dusts the furniture and does the other housework. During the moments she looks hugely out of the window, shining, she meets with the other girls enjoying herself. As she looks out of the window she realizes that a life of toll lies ahead of her and that she must work hard all her life just as her mother has always done.
Authorities Avert Chicago Jail Race Riot
(Preston News Service.
CHICAGO, Aug. 16.—Inmates of the county jail, who in recent weeks have had a dynamiting party, many booze parties and fights between individual prisoners, were about to stage a southern pastime.
It is claimed that on Thursday the 31 playful inmates of the sixth tier of the new jail got things in fine shape to stage a little "below Mason and Dixon line" comedy, in the form of a race riot.
The authorities claim that before the opposing factions could clash and break one another's hands with billies and various implements, made from bed springs, etc., the plot was discovered by one of Cook County's faithful guards on that tier which houses 30 colored prisoners and 18 whites.
The warden and his deputies searched the cells and collected the various implements of impending warfare. The authorities were unable to place the blame and consequently decided on punishment for the entire colony on the sixth tier.
NEW YORK AMSTERDAM NEWS, WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 18, 1926
OXFORD, Eng., Aug. 16.—Until recently a bottle of gin was commonly accepted as money in Africa.
Details concerning the progress of natives of West and East Africa were given by W. Ormsby-Gore, Under Secretary for the Colonies, who addressed the Geography Section of the ninety-fourth annual meeting of the British Association for the Advancement of Science last week.
He declared that only recently money, such as we know it, had displaced the square-shaped bottles of gin and cards of cloth as currency among the natives.
Shells still were used as money in some places, he told the audience.
He spoke of the "newly rich" class among the African Negroes, which, he said, was due to the sudden influx of wealth among them.
To illustrate their growing prosperity, he declared that Nigeria had increased the value of its exports from £8,250,000 in 1921 to £17,000,000 in 1925.

THE QUICKEST WAY TO FORTUNE
Have you ever heard this saying!—A dollar saved is a dollar earned. You might say, of course, I could not save a dollar if I did not first earn it, but do you realize that every dollar which you are compelled to spend. If you could devise some means whereby you could avoid spending that dollar, it would be like earning another dollar.
Come to Jamaica—an ideal Home Town
For instance, you pay $65 per month for a six-room flat; now suppose you could devise a plan by which you could pay the amount 65 monthly and have the landlord sign an agreement to deposit $33,33 in the bank in your name every month. Wouldn't you call yourself lucky!
Well, here is your chance.
Get a 1 or 2 family 6 or 11 hot water, tile and shower by enamel gas range, breakfast-nut vegetables and chickens. You pay from $200 to $250 after initial amount to about 8 go to increase your first pay you will have at least $400 at the end of ten years, your property, and also allowed 200 in 10 years, you will have here you can sell your property while your next door neighbor, owns not a red brick in the building has several inmates are buying their homes. The a number of our people have are now living comfortably and I am interested in round this article will be on Thrift and Independence. If you have a friend in the see me.

“The Third D 7
e Third Degree
WHEN WE READ of a man S being SUD=
jected to the “third degree” most of us
think of a battle of wits between an ac-
cused person and the police authorities.
In our mind’s eye we see a crafty crimi-
nal confronted by equally crafty detec-
tives who are familiar with criminals
and their ways. What we believe the
“third degree” to be and what it really
is are two entirely different things.
THE “THIRD DEGREE” is nothing
more nor less than an indoor lynching,
or nearslynching, bee sanctioned openly
by authority. It is one of the most dis«
graceful proceedings this side of hell it-
self. It amounts many times to cold-
blooded murder because innocent men
have been known to die from the effects
of such “examinations.” Questions, no
matter how forcefully put, cannot knock
out teeth, break bones and dislocate
noses.
WHEN SUBJECTED to “third degree”
.pethags, most accused persons senfess,
the crime they are charged with hav-
ing committed, no matter what that
crime may be. As a consequence, a con=
fession to police authorities is worth
little in open court unless guilt is estab-
lished by corroboration.
WE ARE NOT surprised that a juror,
after listening to testimony of police
brutality in the trial of members of the
Oberst gang, caused a mistrial by de-
manding that he be relieved. We are
not surprised that there is an alarming
disrespect for constituted authority.
We are not surprised that six police of-
ficers have been shot down by gunmen
in New York City since the first of the
year. And we are not surprised at the
apathy and indifference of the average
citizen when he reads that a police of-
ficer has been slain in the periormance
of his duty.
- ONLY THE OTHER DAY a police official
was heard to remark that there is more
Jaw in the end of 2 nightstick than in the
courts, and we hasten to affirm that
there is too little justice in too many of
our courts, but even this does not give
police officers permission to sit as
judge and jury on persons accused of
crimes, no matter how grave that crime
may be.
ALL THIS is as it should NOT be. The
policeman is sworn to uphold the law,
to protect citizens, to apprehend those
believed guilty of crimes against society,
in return for which he is paid out of the
city treasury, and should have the re-
spect of every law-abiding citizen. But
he hasn't this respect, and will not have
it until brains take the place of brutality
in alf his dealings with his fellow men.
WE HAVE LITTLE OR NO SYMPATHY

for criminals. When convicted, such
punishment should be meted out to
them as the law calls for. When at-
tacked or when it is necessary we are
not opposed to the use of force by police
officers, but we cry aloud against un-
necessary and unwarranted abuse and
assault of individuals by members of
the police force, from which Negroes
throughout the city are the worst suf-
ferers. The Oberst gang is white, but
this does not alter our position against
police beatings. Scarcely a week goes
by that cases of assault by policemen
are not reported to us—in station
houses, detention pens and sometimes
even in court houses. Some of these
reports may be exaggerated, but many
of them have been found to be true.
STOP PRACTICES of this kind and the
policeman will take his rightful place
in the minds and hearts of those for
whom he often forieits his life and have
their co-operation in driving the crim=
inal element out of the city.

Jet us ask ourselves the question, “What have we
done to help ourselves?” Has there bees an organ-
ized effort on our part to mobilize our forces for

An Open Letter to Commissioner
: McLaughlin
nes
Among law-abiding Negroes in Harlem there is
no desire to condoze crimes committed br gangsters
(black or white) who shoot officers of the law and
bring distress to thelr families.
But we do believe {t to be an incumbent duty on
the police authorities to first put a stop to the
‘practice of police brutality after an arrest bas been
made. One outstanding case which I am bringing
to your attention is the beating up of Ecimanuel
Jacobs of 47 West 129th street by Detective Hunter
(colored) and other detectives of that precinct, and
it ft ts your purpose to be fafr and {mpartial, 1 am
reasonably sure that you can ill afford to let this
matter be just a mere pussing cloud,
Emmanuel Jacobs and his wife were arrested on
a charge of assault on Police Detective Hart. When
the case was brought up for trial in the Washing
ton Heights Court, 166th street and St. Nicholas ave-
nue, on Tuesday morning, 11th instant, Judge Flood
immediately dismissed the case after Several wit
nesses had been heard.
Lack of intelligence on the one hand and the
desire to abuse poWer on the other was evidently
the reason for the bold intrusion of Detective Hart
in the apartment of Mr, and Mrs, Jacobs at the
time of the incident.
Belleving hitt to be a. burglar, Mrs. Jacobs
screamed for help as she Jooked at this stranger
In civilian clothes polating a gun at her.
Her husband ran to her assistance and after
relieving Detective Hart of his gun, administered
a few necessary blows on the intruder. who did not
‘show his authority, because he kad already abused
it
It ought to be quite clear to you that all Negroes
are not murderers, for Emmantiel Jacobs turned
aver the gun of Detective Hart as soon as the
police officers appeared on the scene. °
Yot despite these facts, Emmanuel Jacobs re-
ports to several agencies who are watching your
‘attitude toward this letter that after he was taken
to the police station Deective Hunter kicked him
and proceeded to beat him with his fists, while his
wife looked on. Other detectives Joined in the
cowardly outrage and his health is Impaired because
of the blackjacks which he redelved on his body.
May Tsay, str, for your information, that Negroes
are not concerned about the weltare of Detective
Hunter, merely_Decause he 18 a Negro.
It he is the first to raise bis hands against Iaw-
abiding and unoffending citizens, then it is no
honor to the Negro race to have a man of his
type on the police force.
T believe you are due the courtesy of this letter,
which is.so highly suggestive of your most im-
mediate consideration,
T have written ft by. request of Mr, and Mrs.
Jacobs, Who are prepared to appear at your office
with thelr wimesses at any time.
Trusting that you will give thls matter your most
serloun consideration, I am,

restrictions put upon preachers and churches by
Mexican laws.
