Curfew Uppercuts
Mr. Dempsey
THE downfall of Mr. Jack Dempsey, ex-heavyweight boxing champion of the world, with reservations, is not unlike the plight of a white man, who, having been injured in a wreck, preferred death to a ride to the hospital in an ambulance which bore the body of a colored man.
Dolgis Dempsey, who became weak in the legs, short of breath, and shy of punching force after a three years' marathon of evasion of one Mr. Harry Wills, has suffered groves uppercuts both from Mr. Tunney and Father Time. In his gloom, however, Mr. Dempsey is consolled by the fact that he was defended "by an American—a yellow countryman—a man who speaks the English language" and scored uppercuts with American punches. Mr. Dempsey, aided by Mr. Rickard and several other good American "sportsmen," did not think it was ethical to fight Mr. Harry Wills for the world's championship, and those years of dodges—not fighting—took their toll from Mr. Dempsey's once husky frame.
Mr. Tunney, even before uppercutting Mr. Dempsey into submission, ascribed to the policy of white championships only (that is, of course, excepting another international war is fought) and will probably grow fat, sleek, and slow reading Mr. Wills and battling second and third-raters of his own hue. However, it was good to change champions, because even in the ring, variety is the spice of life.
Of course prize-fighting is a brutal, barbaric sport; and it wouldn't elevate the Negro race any if Mr. Wills were to fight and win. Yet, as long as good American and English-speaking sportsmen are going to engage in warfare either in the ring or in the field of shot and shell, why not make it no per cent American, just like the Ku Klux Klan says it should be?
Detective Arrests Pair Sentence to Workhouse
George Bland. 485 Waverly place, Brooklyn, was a little too clever for two confidence men who attempted to dupe him out of $200. Soon after he had escaped from the trap set for him. Detective Peeney of the West 123d Street Station, who had followed the prisoners for over 10 minutes, came to his assistance and placed them under arrest. At the police station the prisoners described themselves as Fred Becker and Charles Brulison, no address. Arraigned in the Washington Heights Court. Monday morning, before Magistrate Bernard Douras, the pair, who have been previously convicted, were sentenced to five months and 29 days in the workhouse. According to the detective, the prisoners had a dollar bill wrapped around a packet of cigarettes and pretended as though it was a large bank roll of approximately $200.

FIRE FIRST GUNS IN HARLEM FREE SPEECH CAMPAIGN
More Than 500 Attend Mass Meeting in Liberty Hall to Protest Against Arrest of Street Corner Speaker — Vigilance Committee of 100 to Be Named
Firing the first gun in a free speech fight, nearly 500 persons congregated at Liberty Hall Sunday afternoon in a united demonstration against the laxity with which policemen and other city officials protect law-abiding citizens in Harlem.
Liberty Hall, a shell of rough bricks, had its biggest crowd probably since the time when Marcus Garvey stood upon the platform as the "Moses of his People." Many white people were in attendance.
In contrast to the whites who once visited the structure as curious spectators Sunday they were interrupted participants.
The primary object of the meeting was to protest against the arrest of Richard B. Moore, secretary of the Harlem Educational Forum and director of the Institute (Continued on Page 2.)
Jersey Patrolman Saves Trio From Mob
Three men were rescued from a mob of several hundred white men and women in Jersey City Sunday night when reservo policemen from the Grand Street Station arrested them.
It is claimed by residents of the Bay and Green street section that the men had been celebrating. One of them, police say, took a razor out of his pocket and began to chase a group of children. Within a few moments the street was crowded with men and women giving chase and the trio was finally cornered in an alley near Bay and Warren streets.
Vincent Purcell, white, 22, 83 Railroad avenue, was slashed on the arm when he attempted to grasp the razor. It is said, before the arrival of the police.
At the station the three under arrest gave their names as Raymond Caldwell, 31, Charles Allen, 27, and Lucious Scott, 27. They lived, they said, at the Pennsylvania Railroad camp at Bay and Green streets, Jersey City.
Scott: the possessor of the weapon, according to police, was booked on charges of atrocious assault, carrying concealed weapons and disorderly conduct. The other Norcross were charged with disorderly conduct.

California Preacher Has Divine Punch
LOS ANGELES. Cal.. Sept. 27
(By The Associated Negro Press).
—The Greenspan Foultry Market,
at the busiest corner in the Negro
business district, was the scene of
a near-rlot when one of the workers
stepped up to the Rev. Emanuel
Hall and told him he had heard
enough for a "gigger."
The preacher promptly knocked the insulter down and, when another employee rushed him with a cleaver, someone else knocked him down and took the weapon. For awhile there was quite a mixup between white and colored bystanders who took sides with the principals. The argument was started by Greenspan, the proprietor, attempting to force the Rev. Mr. Hall to take a chicken he had refused to pay for the night before because it had not been weighed.
MAN, DRUNK. BROKE INTO APARTMENT
On a charge of disorder conduct, Vincent Roberts, white, 1360 Nelson avenue, was sentenced to 30 days in the Workhouse Monday morning. He was arrested by Patrolman Greene of the West 135th Street Station after the prisoner had broken into an apartment at No. 2730 Eighth avenue. He was intoxicated at the time, the officer said.
Papers Served on Garvey by Mail
Hearing on Injunction Postponed Until He Has Time to Reply
Probably for the first time in history, induction papers were served on a prisoner in the Federal Prison at Atlanta, Ga. when the opposing faction of the Garvey movement, of which George A. Weston is president, sent the papers in a registered letter to Marcus Garvey, who is serving a five-year term on a charge of using the United States malls to defraud, Saturday.
On the ground that Garvey had not time to reply to the papers served on him, the hearing on the injunction restraining the Garveyites from using the name of Universal Negro Improvement Association was adjourned to a later date.
Wesley Holder, who has been charged with burglary by the Garveyites, expressed his belief that his body had scored a distinct victory on serving the papers on the imprisoned man. He is being personally represented by Attorney Leonard George.
Head-Over-Heels in Love; Asks Sentence to Chain
PITTSBURGH. Sept. 27.—Ralph Asbury, 18, a dashing young shell, who says he hails from North Carolina, was so overcome with humiliation and heart pangs when Miss Bessle Fulton, a beautiful lassio of 18 summers, refused his ardent pleading to join him as a life partner, that he walked in to Magistrate Orie's office Tuesday morning and requested the magistrate to sentence him to the electric chair. The magistrate explained to the young man that the charge of "suicidal person" did not entitle him to a seat in the chair. Asbury then asked for the longest sentence you have. Magistrate Orie obliged the suffering lover by lining him $100 with the option of 90 days in the workhouse. Young Asbury was arrested after he had created a disturbance in the home of Miss Fulton when she returned to marry him.
BAIL IS DENIED MAN WHO CAUSED RIOT CALL
Crowd Clubbed Policeman Into Insensibility Not Knowing That He Had Arrested Man Who Attacked Boy in Store
George W. Ewald, assistant district attorney, attached to the Washington Heights Court, pictured Douglas Allen. 22. 160 West 127th street, as a menace to the community when he made a strong appeal Monday to the court to hold the prisoner without bail for the Grand Jury on a charge of felonious assault. Bail was denied. In explaining to the court how the prisoner had brutally attacked an innocent youth, Mr. Ewald thundered that the "bully" had incited a crowd to attack Patrolman James Eagar, attached to the West 185th street station, causing him to be confined to Harlem Hospital. "This crowd could have easily knocked over a mother with her baby in her arms as she was passing along the street and crushed her to death." the assistant district attorney said. "This defendant has come to New York from the South, and instead of bettering his condition, he has drifted into the lowest pit that a man can fall." he asserted.
Allen entered a stationery store at 1320 street and Seventh avenue two weeks ago and after assaulting Eric Wilson, 2207 Seventh avenue, was placed under arrest by Eagar. While on their way to the station, Allen broke loose and ran severel blocks down the avenue and turned into West 130th street.
A huge crowd congregated around the officer after he had captured his prisoner. Shortly before he was caught, he fired five shots at the officer. The crowd pounced upon the officer and clubbed him unconscious.

Softens Heart of Cold Magistrate
Pickpocket Tells Court It's His First Crime Here in Twenty Years
A criminal with a police record dating back to 1901, incurred all over the United States and in the principal cities of Canada, made an appeal for lenency that softened the heart of the court.
Wesley Walsh, 50, 2117 Seventh avenue, was sentenced to six months in the Workhouse by Magistrate Maurice Gottlieb in the Washington Heights Court, Monday, on a charge of jostling.
On blending guilty to the charge the defendant explained that it had been over twenty years since he had committed a criminal offense in New York. Then in a heavy burdite voice that was full of delightful resonance, he begged the court to show him some consideration.
Magistrate Gottlieb expressed his appreciation for the man's confession and after he had been fingerprinted gave him the light sentence.

SIGNATURE ON CHECK FOR $264.42 FORGERY, IS CHARGE
SIGNATURE ON CHECK FOR $264.42 FORGERY, IS CHARGE
Man Arrested in Chelsea Bank When He Attempted to Cash Note Made Payable to John W Stovall by John M. Royall
To await the action of the Grand Jury on a charge of forgery, Jack Adams, 10 East 130th street, was held in $5,000 bail by Magistrate Bernard Douras in the Washington Heights Court Monday.
The charge against the alleged forger grew out of his attempt to cash a check made out to John W. Stovall, 117 West 137th street, by John M. Royall, real estate broker, 21 West 137th street.
Royall testified that he sent a check to Stovall for $264.42 which he had collected in rents from Stovall's property. He identified the check that he had signed when it was presented to him by Assistant District Attorney George W. Ewald.
Stovall, who is a contractor, said that he never received the check. He swore that the signature of "John Stovall" that appeared on the check was not his.
George Mercer, teller in the Chelsea Bank, testified that the defendant presented the check at his window to be cashed. Because he was acquainted with Stovall's signature, he questioned the man, he said. When Adams insisted that he was Stovall, he suspected him then of forgery and notified the West 135th station station.
Detective Bauerschmidt in response to the call went to the bank at Seventh avenue and West 155th street. After questioning the man he placed him under arrest. Adams pleaded not guilty but was not represented by counsel. He said he was ready for trial but would not take the stand in his defense. He refused to interrogate any of the witnesses.

Husband Alleges Spouse Is Wife of Antonio
Marriage annulment proceedings were begun yesterday by Burnett T. Madden, 274 West 127th street, against his wife, Bettie Hardnie-Madden, same address, in the Supreme Court of New York County.

BODY FOUND IN AREAWAY OF COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY SATURDAY
BODY FOUND IN AREAWAY OF COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY SATURDAY
Associated but Little With Own Race; Accused of Insulting Woman on Campus Day Before He Met Death
The body of Charles Fouschee, 30 years old, an employee of Columbia University, which was found in the areaway of the administration building of the university Saturday, has created a great deal of suspicion. Because of Fouschee's light complexion it is believed that the employee's identity was not known by any of the officials at the university. He associated for the most part, it has been learned, with white persons. It is alleged that Fouschee had been held in the custody of the school authorities for insulting one of the women on the campus. He was locked up in the bursar's office and was being held for the police. The office is 70 feet from the ground. He was thought to have escaped until his body was found Saturday morning lying in the areaway directly beneath the office, according to a statement given out by the university officials. Although several different addresses were found in the man's pocket, no one knew anything about him at any of the places. He was formerly a member of the local waiters' association, but no information could be secured from the organization about him.
His body was identified by a member of the firm of Duncan Brothers' undertaking establishment. Upon the request of his father, John Fouschee, the body was shipped to Glendon, N. C.

HENSON TELLS OF KUDLOOKTOO
Marvin Misunderstood, Says Matt Henson in Interview
Explorer Who Went to Pole With Peary, Says Eskimos Could Not Speak English—Slayer Confesses After Seventeen Years
Matt Henson, who accompanied Peary to the North Pole in 1900, was greatly surprised Friday night when he was told of Kudooktoo's confession that he had shot Ross G. Marvin and his explanation that he did so to save the life of the Eskimo known as Harrigan. The story was published in the New York Times.
"I remember the two Eskimos very distinctly," he said. "They were mere boys. Harrigan, as he was called, was 20 years old. Kudooktoo was only 15. As far as I knew, they were well-behaved, reliable young Eskimos, but a single white man is always in some dan-ger with two Eskimos, especially it he does not understand their language. The Eskimos may not have any evil intentions, but they may misunderstand the white man and console against him.
We somewhat crippled at the time that Peary sent him back with the two Eskimos. One foot had been frozen and the toes of the other had been frost-nipped. If the two Eskimos took different routes from his, it is possible that he thought they were not obeying orders, or that they were trying to abandon him. Perhaps he scolded them angrily, and they got the impression that he was going to leave Harrigan behind. It is very hard
Mr. Kudlookoo is honest in telling the story that he killed Martin because Marvin threatened to leave Harrison behind to starve to death. I believe that Kudlookoo and Harrison misunderstood the white man's intentions. They might have feared or surmised that he was going to abandon one of them. I believe it is absolutely impossible that Marvin would do such a thing. Mr. Marvin was a very quiet young man, but one of great courage and strength of character. He

was somewhat crippled at the time that Peary sent him back with the two Eskimos. One foot had been frozen and the toes of the other had been frost-nipped. If the two Eskimos took different routes from his, it is possible that he thought they were not obeying orders, or that they were trying to abandon him. Perhaps he scolded them angrily, and they got the impression that he was going to leave Harrigan behind. It is very hard to say what happened.
"I have known a few bad Eskimos. Once they got panicky and were on the point of leaving Peary in the lurch. I remember a case where they murdered their medicine man. At the same time I never would pick Harrigan or Kudlookoo as the bad sort. They were young, fairly willing and were rated as good Eskimos.
"The story of the two Eskimos was that Marvin was making the trail some distance ahead of them, when they lost sight of him. They went on a little further, they said, and came to an open lead or place where the ice was broken apart, exposing the open water. There they saw the back of Marvin's coat. According to their story, his body was floating face downward and he was drowned.
"It sometimes happens that suffering and privation will temporarily unbalance the mind of a man in the Arctic, but Marvin was a coo-headed, quiet and just man, and I feel sure that no such thing happened to him. It seems difficult, on the other hand, to believe that an Eskimo would keep a secret in his breast for sixteen years and then make a false confession. It seems to me that he is very likely telling what he believes to be true, but I do not believe that Marvin ever uttered any such threats."
"I recall a thing that may be the explanation of the whole tragedy," continued Henson. "Peary explicitly instructed Marvin to send one Eskimo boy ahead and the other behind. If he came to an open lead. In other words, an Eskimo should cross first, Marvin should cross second, and the other Eskimo third. If they were crossing thin ice, or any other dangerous place, this procedure was to be followed.
"It is very probable that, acting under these instructions, Marvin sent one ahead and ordered the other to stay behind. They might
have feared, from this order, that it was the intention of Marvin to abandon one of them. Eskimos are quick to become frightened and to act on their fears, and Marvin was probably killed because they did not understand him.
"Marvin, unfortunately, could not speak the language of the Eskimos. It is very dangerous for a single white man, who does not understand Eskimo, to deal with two or more Eskimo boys. One thing that cause me to suspect Kudlooktoo's story is the fact that, if Marvin did say he would abandon 'Karrigan' and let him starve, they would not have understood him. They did not know English well enough. The fact must have been that they did not understand him and guessed at his meaning."

Harlem Merchants Form Association
Harlem Merchants Form Association
To adopt plans for a Harlem Center Merchants' Association, the local business men will hold a meeting in the new Harris-Cooper Building, 135th street and Seventh avenue, this Thursday evening at S o'clock
At a conference Sunday afternoon in the offices of the H. R. George Investment Bankers, 2298 Seventh avenue, tentative proposals were drawn up by a number of merchants and will be presented at the Thursday meeting.
The organization which is to be incorporated will include business men from 145th street on the north to 130th street and from Fifth avenue on the east to Eighth avenue. To improve the social and business conditions among the merchants is one of the prime objects of the movement. They demand better police protection especially at busy corners at night. Dlim lights will be substituted for much brighter ones if their plans materialize. Any member of the organization will be helped in times of distress through a social committee which will create a trust fund in order to supply financial aid. A big jubilee week will be celebrated each year, merchants having their windows decorated. Music will be furnished and the Mayor with his official family will be invited to take part in the celebration.
Among the sponsors of the movement are: H. R. George, president

THE FEMINIST VIEWPOINT
"WOMEN arrive early for State Convention" reads a headline in one of the dailies. Yes, at Madison Square Garden on Monday the first delegate to appear was a woman. Half an hour before the scheduled start a count was taken, and of the fifty-two delegates in their seats, forty-four of these were women.
What does this mean? Women, in this way, are showing their appreciation of the right of franchise. Maybe they are trying to disprove two sayings: "Women are always late" and "After you get what you want you don't want it."
Nevertheless, this early start on the part of women in the State Convention must not be taken too seriously. The vital thing to think about is whether or not these women—and the hundreds and thousands of others who are not at the convention—are prepared, and prepared thoroughly, for wise voting—T. E. B.

Fashion Hints
The new idea of combining three fabrics is becoming popular—black, red and gold make a favorite combination.
Lace is a strong note in the new lingerie. White, cream and ochre shades are equally popular, being introduced as yokes, medallions, insets, band and ruffles. The lace is frequently dyed to match the color of material used for the lingerie.
Matching bags and scarfs is a new note in ensembles. Hats and scarfs to match continue to be modish.
Flower dolls, typically French, limp jointed, long bodied, are the new novelties for the boudoir, for favors or for gifts. These dolls are dressed in a skirt of rose leaves, orchids, lilies or chrysanthemums, with matching head dress or ruff.
Bertha Perry Rhodes on Interracial Board

This will be the first Interracial Conference of Women and promises to be a most interesting and profitable session. Mrs. Rhodes well deserves this signal honor, having served faithfully on various welfare and charitable committees. She is vice-president of the local branch.
Another Equality Demand. PARIS. Without prejudice to their claim to votes and general equality with men before the law, some married French women have decided to select a few special. If apparently minor points, on which they intend to secure equal treatment. Among the right desired immediately is the equality of postal privileges.
A French wife went to the post office and asked for a box as near her husband's as possible.
Are you in business on your own account, madame?" asked the postmaster. "No? Then you need your husband's authorization to rent a box."
The reply started the movement for postal equality.

BOSTON, Sept. 27.—How much clothes to wear, social relations of bushands and wives, what to do about the neighbors, what and how much to eat and why, how to guard the budget from the pernicious influence of the fact that "they say" the Jones family in the next block has a new car, and how to break "back breaking habits" in the routine of housework are among the questions to be discussed in a new course. The college about married announced today by the college of Practical Arts and Letters of Boston University.
Mrs. Elizabeth Macdonald, former, editor of a widely known women's magazine, wife, mother of three and carver of a career into the bargain, will conduct the new course on the discussion group plan. In the groups the girls may discuss if they wish—and only if they wish—their most puzzling and intimate problems with Prof. Macdonald, a woman already widely known as teacher and counselor in the teacher economist. The course is offered because, in the opinion of Dean T. L. Davis, of the college, and Prof. Macdonald, "modern life moves so fast that special study is needed to keep pace with it."

Lost—An Oklahoma Blossom
OUT in the wide open spaces of Oklahoma, in a small town known as Bacon, lived a young woman whose father's property was graced with many old wells. Evelyn was 26 years old last July and her father's birthday present was a New York to visit her cousin, Alice.
However, prior to Evelyn's departure for the kast, she and her older sister motored to Oklahoma City, where a good amount of cash was spent on clothes. She was going to New York and must be "upstirred."
Well, when the little Oklahoma blossom arrived with her expensive outfit of clothes, she resembled a circus freak rather than a fashion-plate. Nothing she possessed harmonized. She had four very beautiful gowns, but not to her Eurydice lines, she had not to her party, but had no doubt in them in her red shoes would not go with her really party dress.
Because she had expensive and flashy adorable clothes she imagined she was going to set New York ablaze. But the Little Oklahoma blossom still was locked funny in whirl she had, and cousin Alice had to make some radical changes in her wardrobe.
Being Well Dressed.
One does not have to be expensively dressed in order to be attractively and well dressed. Much depends upon appropriateness. deeply fashionable and many supplies should not be worn to business or school. How much more attractive and appropriate are a plain, neat shirtwalt and skirt with plain neckties, simple hat and shoes. Not dressed like going to a party. Appropriate clothes for the suitable kind of clothes for every occasion.
It is your duty to be as well dressed as possible, for your friend's sake as well as your own. But, a well dressed girl is never conspicuous. Your girl should always dade your uses, certainly would not wear a fine evening gown to a plain.
So criticize your own garments. Try to have them neat and clean, and self-specting. Try to have your clothes convenient, neat, graceful, beautiful, and of the body. Choose something which is not over-decorated, but
Indigestion bad spells relieved
NOTHING can take the place of Theford's Black-Draught with us because we have never found anything at once so mild and so effective," says Mrs. Hugh Nichols, R.F.D. 4, Princeton, Ky. "When the children have spells of indigestion and upset stomachs, I always straighten them out with a dose or two of Black-Draught.
"Several times I have suffered with bad spells of indigestion myself and found I would soon get relief if I took a course of Black-Draught. I was troubled with a bad accumulation of gas and severe pains across my stomach and lower bowels. Now when I feel a spell of this kind come back it is of joy by taking Black-Draught at night for a few nights will prevent the trouble and save me much pain and suffering.

which will emphasize your charm and personality. Young girls do not wear or dress up or much decoration on clothes, youth is always charming itself.
Some girls try to copy every style. You should not do this unless it is a style which is becoming to you. Stick to simplicity. Simile is not a style which is becoming to it but it is being so intelligent that you know what to leave off in the way of decoration. Being well dressed is knowing what to omit. Trimmings and ornaments without them are foolish and spoil a gown.
Develop the sense of artistic appreciation. We must think of our costumes as being works of art. Every girl has a style of her own. She should study it and so as to bring out as her good points and conceal those not so attractive.
Stooped or narrowed shoulders if they cannot be corrected, can be made to look less narrow by the plan of the gown. Stout figures can be made to look less stout. So by choosing the right colors and correct decorations and right lines, you can often improve your appearance.
Don't spend your money foolishly on a gown or coat just because it is expensive or in style. First find out if you are becoming in it. Don't be like the Oklahoma blossom!

Kearney Mayor Repudiates Pact
Tells H. G. T. Corporation He Is Powerless to Make Offer
The case of the H. G. J. Corporation of Kearney took on a new aspect Tuesday, when the City Council of Kearney invited the three officers of the corporation, their attorney, Milton Finlestein to a conference to discuss an offer of compensation by the Council to the corporation.
Condemination proceedings had previously been passed by the Council and, according to the rules governing them, they would have to be ratified at a subsequent meeting of the Council.
An attorney for the City of Kearney appeared before the Chancery Court in Newark and requested a stay of two weeks on the injunction sought by the colored corporation.
When the meeting of the Council was convened last Tuesday evening with members of the corporation present, the Mayo of the city wanted to know who had invited them. City Attorney John Cook took this responsibility.
The Mayor then informed Attorney Finkelstein and his clients that he was not empowered to make them an offer. As a result, the corporation has instructed his lawyer to proceed with instruction to show cause, and the hearing will be heard on Tuesday morning before Vice-Chancellor Church in the Chancery Court in Newark.

A GOOD NAME
Over ten years ago when I opened my dental office here in Harlem I set out to establish a GOOD NAME, because "a good name is rather to be chosen than great riches."
I succeeded by placing my heart and conscience into everything that I did and by trying to see how much, and not how little I could do for my patients.
Now my Name cuts its own chan- ned and does its own talking.

Memphis, Tenn.-Ramsey Bay, correspondent for Inter-Racial News Service, was given a very gracious interview today by Madame Mamie Hightower, internationally known beauty culturer of this city. In the course of their conversation, she learned about their discovery, Golden Brown Facial Ointment, which she made many years ago for the personal use of her girlhood chum, Alma, new Mrs. Jefferson Jefferson. The romantic story of Madame Hightower's love and devotion for her friend Alma, who was handcapped by an impossible completion, is only rivalled by the manner Alma's complexion was cleared, beautified and glorified by this new fama ointment.
As far as that is concerned the same conclusion is being performed daily by others in almost all the cities in the United States are treasured with pimple and blotchery, erema, better or rash, if your completion is sallow and slakly you should immediately to the drugrist in your community and purchase a box of Golden

In an interview with Miss Belle Sherwin, president of the League of Women Voters, concerning the attitude of women who fail to register and vote because they do not care to tell their ages, Miss Sherwin declared that "women who refuse to vote because they have to disclose their ages are out of date and handicap women's political progress." "A woman's age, no matter what it be, is not a thing to conceal or be ashamed of unless it proves that she has failed to gain understanding."
The refusal of women on such grounds to take part in the choice of men and women who are to conduct the government is as antiquated as many other customs which for centuries bound women within a narrow sphere of activity—social and political. The voting power is a serious one. It should not be impaired by trifling.

Brown Beauty Ointment. Its use according to directions will clear your complexion and restore to your cheeks the bloom of youth. A box costs only $16. It would be well also to buy a cake of Madame Hightower's Beauty Soap and use it always before applying the ointment. This ointment is creamy white and lathers in hard or soft water. It takes the impurities out of the pores and provides the skin with the natural oils they need to build up the tissues.
Ramsay Ray states that Madame Hightower's Golden Brown Beauty Preparations are now sold by 12,000 druggists who have signified to her their appreciation of the patronage of Our Group. Madame Hightower has their names in a great book. If your druggist cannot supply you, write direct to Madame Mamie Hightower, care of Golden Brown Chemical Co., Memphis, Tennessee. Mr. Ray assures this paper that Madame Hightower answers all letters personally and sends trial site packages free to those who write her.

Joy Was Really Unconfined With the "Virginia Joymakers"
Wild Battle, in Which Police Officer Was Shot, Staged at Brooklyn Labor Lyceum
Everything was going along fine at the Labor Lyceum on Wednesday night, Sept. 22, where the "Virginia Joymakers" were giving their annual dance, until the "corn liquor" commenced to work on certain members of the uptown gangs about 12 o'clock, then things commenced to happen, and as a result a policeman was shot with his own revolver, and four persons were arrested.
According to reports, George "Lonny" Cook of 147 Classon avenue and a young man named Butler got into an argument, and words led to blows. Cook, who is a much larger man than Butler, was getting the best of the fight. Butler fled from the scene of battle to get some of his uptown gang and all of the uptown boys ralled to the battle cry. This was the signal for the downtown boys to come to Cook's aid.

Edward. 29 years old, came to his wife's assistance, and was met by a barrage of chairs and empty beer bottles. This was casualty number two.
In the meantime Patrolman James Von Hattan of the Wilson Avenue Station, who had heard of the light, entered the hall, and Cook was pointed out as the cause of the trouble. He was taking Cook out of the hall when it is alleged, John Mitchel, better known as "Babe," who is a chauffeur, of 2100 Atlantic avenue, made an attempt to take his knife from the officer. During the struggle the common rescued for his gun. One of the men is reported to have tried to get it from the officer and in doing so the revolver was fired, striking the policeman in the left ankle, shattering it.
By this time reserves had arrived and arrested Cook, Mitchell and Mr. and Mrs. Smalls. Cook and Mitchel were taken to the Gates Avenue Court on Thursday morning and were held without bail in the charge of felonious assault. Mr. and Mrs. Smalls were also USED CARS FOR SALE

Patrolman Leonard, of Classon Avenue Station, Captured "Candy Burglar"
Robert Slade, 41 years old, of 414 Hudson avenue, was arraigned before Magistrate Golden and held without ball last week on a charge of burglary. According to the police, Slade's record shows that he has four convictions of burglary and one of petty larceny, and has served time for each.

Brooklyn Man Said to Have Wielded Knife in
One of the most brutal assaults ever committed in Brooklyn within the annals of the local police department took place Monday afternoon, Sept. 13, when Walter Redley, 24 years old, of Trenton, N. J., is alleged to have attacked Mrs. Bessie Jackson, 23 of 1861% Atlantic avenue, in an apartment at 51 Utica avenue, with big knife. She was cut about the breast, face and in the back, one car was so badly cut that it was hanging on. The police marvel how the woman survived. It is reported that the Jackson woman, who is married but is not living with her husband, had been warned that Redley, with whom she was keeping him, was out to kill her, believing that her wounds would serve to dissuade the man, she went into the apartment of Mrs. Watts, the man's sister, who also was her friend, and another girl friend, Lillian Carter.
Shortly after Mrs. Jackson entered Redley commended to abuse her, it is said, and is also alleged to have drawn a large knife and started in to "cut up." as he is reported to have been stabbed. Mrs. Jackson is, it alleged, pleaded with him not to cut her, but her pleas only served to enrage the man until the woman in whose apartment they met intervened by calmly stating: "Stop cutting her, Walter, you have cut her enough." The Carter woman is reported as saying that she was going out to get an officer, but she alleged to have gone to the house and defied anyone to the house and make her leave the door so they could go out. When Redley had ceased cutting the woman at the request of the landlady, whose name the police did not get, the women let Mrs. Jackson out and she went down stairs, despite the great loss of blood, and collapsed on the sidewalk at Utica and she was notified and an ambulance came and took her to the Kings County Hospital.
When detectives came they were told that Redley and his sister had died, but at 11 o'clock that evening Mrs. Watts came back to her home on Atlantic avenue and the police were notified. She was arrested and taken to the detention home for female material witnesses on Malbone-street and questioned relative to the whereabouts of her brother. She refused to say.
At 1:00 o'clock Tuesday morning Patrolman Greytak of the fifth precinct was notified. Redley was in the home at Milica avenue. He went to Milica avenue it is reported, and found the man under a bed.
Redley was arrested and later was arraigned in the Sixth District Court before Magistrate Golden. He was held without ball on the charge of felonious assault.

Synopsis—TOMSKY, a young Russian, has a grandmother who knows three cards which, if played in succession, always win. Narumov, a calvaryman, heard Tomsky when he told of the secret his grandmother knows. Later Tomsky asks permission of his grandmother, who is a Countess, to present Narumov to her. She consents to meet him.
Now Go On With the Story
WILEN Tomsky asked permission of his grandmother, the Countess, to present one of his friends to her, the young girl's heart beat violently. But hearing that Narumov was not an Engineer, she regretted that by her thoughtless question she had betrayed her secret to the volative Tomsky.
Hermann was the son of a German who had become a naturalized Russian, and from whom he had inherited a small capital. Being firmly convinced of the necessity of preserving his independence, Hermann did not touch his private income, but lived on his pay, without allowing himself the slightest luxury. Moreover, he was reserved and ambitious, and his companions rarely had an opportunity of making merry at the expense of his parsimony. He had strong passions and an ardent imagination, but his firmness of disposition preserved him from the ordinary errors of young men. Thus, though a gamester at heart, he never touched a card, for he considered his position did not allow him—as he said—"to risk the necessary in the hope of winning the superfluous," yet he would sit for nights together at the card table and follow with feverish anxiety the different turns of the game.
The story of the three cards had produced a powerful impression upon his imagination, and all night long he would think of nothing else. "If." he thought to himself the following evening, as he walked along the street of St. Petersburg, "if the old Countess would but reveal her secret to me! If she would only tell me the names of the three winning cards. Why should I not try my fortune? I must get introduced to her and win her favor—become her lover. But all that will take time, and she is eighty years old; she might be dead in a week, in a couple of days even! But the story itself: can it really be true? No! Economy, temperance and industry: those are my three winning cards: by means of them I shall be able to double my capital—increase it sevenfold, and procure for myself ease and independence."
. . .
Musing in this manner, he walked on until he found himself in one of the principal streets of St. Petersburg, in front of a house of antiquated architecture.
The street was blocked with equipages: carriages one after another drew up in front of the brilliant illuminated doorway. At one moment there stepped out on the pavement the well-shaped little foot of some young beauty, at another the heavy boot of a cavalry officer, and then the silk stockings and shoes of a member of the diplomatic world. Furs and cloaks passed in rapid succession before the gigantic porter at the entrance.
Hermann stopped. "Whose house is this?" he asked of the watchman at the corner.
"The Countess A——'s," replied the watchman.
Hermann started. The strange story of the three cards again presented itself to his imagination. He began walking up and down before the house, thinking of its owner and her strange secret.
When Hermann went to bed that night he dreamed of nothing but cards, green tables, piles of banknotes and heaps of ducats. He played one card after another, winning uninterruptedly, and then he gathered up the gold and filled his pockets with the notes. When he woke up next morning he sighed over the loss of his imaginary wealth, and then sallying out into the town, he found himself once more in front of the Countess's residence. Some unknown power seemed to have attracted him thither. He stopped and looked up at the window. At one of these he saw a head with luxuriant black hair, which was bent down probably over some book or an embroidery frame. The head was raised. Hermann saw a fresh complexion and a pair of dark eyes. That moment decided his fate.
Lizanka had scarcely taken off her hat and cloak, when the Countess sent for her and again ordered her to get the carriage ready. The vehicle drew up before the door, and they prepared to take their seats. Just at the moment two footmen were assisting the old lady to enter the carriage. Lizanka saw her Engineer standing close beside the wheel;

It made a law requiring colored ladies and gentlemen to stay home after nightfall or carry "passes" like convicts — and it forbade them, by unlawful police bullying, to bathe in the great big ocean!

the left, and walk straight on until you reach the Countess's bedroom. In the bedroom, behind a screen, you will find two doors: the one on the right leads to a cabinet, which the Countess never enters; the one on the left leads to a corridor at the end of which is a little winding staircase; this leads to my room."
he grasped her hand; alarm caused her to lose her presence of mind, and the young man disappeared—but not before he had left a letter between her fingers. She concealed it in her glove, and during the whole of the drive she neither saw nor heard anything. It was the custom of the Countess, when out for an airing in her carriage, to be constantly asking questions. On this occasion, however, Lizanka returned such vague and absurd answers that the Countess became angry with her.
Hermann trembled like a tiger as he waited for the appointed time to arrive. At 10 o'clock in the evening he was already in front of the Countess's house. The weather was terrible; the wind blew with great violence; the sleety snow fell in large flakes; the lamps emitted a feeble light, the streets were deserted; from time to time a sledge, drawn by a sorry-looking hack, passed by, on the lookout for a belated passenger. Hermann was enveloped in a thick overcoat and felt neither wind nor snow.
. . .
"What is the matter with you, my dear?" she exclaimed. "Have you taken leave of your senses, or what is it?" Lizanka did not hear her. On returning home she ran to her room, and drew the letter out of her glove; it was not sealed. Lizanka read it. The letter contained a declaration of love; it was tender, respectful, and copied word for word from a German novel. But Lizanka did not know anything of the German language, and she was quite delighted.
At last the Countess's carriage drew up. Hermann saw two footmen carry out in their arms the bent form of the old lady, wrapped in sable fur, and immediately behind her, clad in a warm mantle, and with her head ornamented with a wreath of fresh flowers, followed Lizanka. The carriage rolled away heavily through the yielding snow. The porter shut the street door; the windows became dark.
For all that the letter caused her to feel exceedingly uneasy. For the first time in her life she was entering into secret and confidential relations with a young man. His boldness alarmed her, for she had neither female friend nor adviser. At length she resolved to reply to him.
Hermann began walking up and down near the deserted house; at length he stopped under a lamp, and glanced at his watch; it was 11:20. He remained standing under the lamp, his eyes fixed upon the watch, impatiently waiting for the remaining minutes to pass. At 11:30 precisely Hermann ascended the steps of the house and made his way into the brightly illuminated vestibule. The porter was not there. Hermann hastily ascended the staircase, opened the door of the ante-room and saw a footman sitting asleep in an antique chair by the side of a lamp. With a light, firm step Hermann passed by him. The drawing room and dining room were in darkness, but a feeble reflection penetrated thither from the lamp in the ante-room.
She sat down at her little writing table, took pen and paper, and then tore it up. The way she had expressed herself seemed either too inviting or too cold and decisive. At last she succeeded in writing a few lines with which she felt satisfied.
"I am convinced," she wrote, "that your intentions are honorable, and that you do not wish to offend me by any impudent behavior, but our acquaintance must not begin in such a manner. I return you your letter and I hope that I shall never have any cause to complain of this undeserved slight."
The next day, as soon as Hermann made his appearance, Lizanka rose from her embroidery, went into the drawing room, opened the ventilator and threw the letter into the street, trusting that the young officer would have the perception to pick it up.
Hermann reached the Countess's bedroom. Before a shrine, which was full of old images, a golden lamp was burning. Faded stuffed chairs and divans with soft cushions stood in melancholy symmetry around the room, the walls of which were hung with China silk. On one side of the room hung two portraits painted in Paris by Madame Lebrun . . . . .
Hernann hastened forward, picked it up and then repaired to a confectioner's shop. Breaking the seal of the envelope, he found inside it his own letter and Lizanka's reply. He had expected this, and he returned home. his mind deeply occupied with his intrigue.
Hermann stepped behind the screen. At the back of it stood a little iron bedstead; on the right was the door which led to the cabinet; on the left—the other which lead to the corridor. He opened the latter, and saw the little winding staircase, which led to the room of the poor companion. Lizanka. But he retraced his steps and entered the dark cabinet.
Three days afterwards a bright-eyed young girl from a milliner's establishment brought Lizanka a letter. Lizanka opened it with great uneasiness, fearing that it was a demand for money, when suddenly she recognized Hermann's hand-writing.
The time passed slowly. All was still. The clock in the drawing room struck 12; the strokes echoed through the room one after the other, and everything was quiet again. Hermann stood leaning against the cold stove. He was calm; his heart beat regularly, like that of a man resolved upon a dangerous but inevitable undertaking. One o'clock in the morning struck; then two; and he heard the distant noise of carriage-wheels. An involuntary agitation took possession of him. The carriage drew near and stopped. He heard the sound of the carriage-steps being let down. All was hustle within the house. The servants were running hither and thither, there was a confusion of voices, and the rooms were lit up. Three antiquated chambermaids entered the bedroom, and they were shortly afterwards followed by the Countess, who, more dead than alive, sank into a Voltaire armchair. Hermann peeped through a chink. Lizanka passed close by him, and he heard her hurried steps as she hastened up the little spiral staircase. For a moment his heart was assailed by something like a pricking of conscience, but the emotion was only transitory, and his heart became petrified as before.
"You have made a mistake, my dear," she said, "this letter is not for me."
"Oh, yes, it is for you," replied the girl, smiling very knowingly. "Have the goodness to read it."
Lizanka glanced at the letter. Hermann requested an interview.
"It cannot be," she cried, alarmed at the audacious request, and the manner in which it was made. "This letter is certainly not for me."
And she tore it into fragments.
"If the letter was not for you, why have you torn it up?"
"Be good enough, my dear," said Lizanka, disconcerted by this remark, "not to bring me any more letters for the future, and tell the person who sent you that he ought to be ashamed."
But Hermann was not a man to be thus put off. Every day Lizanka received from him a letter, sent now in this way, now in that. They were no longer translated from the German. Hermann wrote them under the inspiration of passion, and spoke in his own language, and they bore full testimony to the inflexibility of his desire and the disordered condition of his uncontrollable imaginatoin. Lizanka no longer thought of sending them back to him. She became intoxicated with them and began to reply to them, and little by little her answers became longer and more affectionate. At last she threw out of the window to him the following letter:
The Countess began to undress before her looking glass. Her rose-beddecked cap was taken off, and then her powdered wig was removed from off her white and closely-cut hair. Hairpins tell in showers around her. Her yellow satin dress, brocade with silver, fell down at her swollen feet.
Hermann was a witness of the repugnant mysteries of her toilette: at last the Countess was in her nightcap and dressing gown, and in this costume, more suitable to her use, she appeared less hideous and deformed.
CHAPTER FOUR
Like all old people in general, the Countess suffered from sleeplessness. Having undressed, she seated herself at the window in a Voltaire armchair and dismissed her maids. The candles were taken away, and once more the room was left with only one lamp burning in it. The Countess sat there looking quite yellow, mumbling with her flaccid lips and swaying to and fro. Her dull eyes expressed complete vacancy of mind, and, looking at her, one would have thought that the rocking of her body was not a voluntary action of her own, but was produced by the action of some concealed volcanic mechanism.
"T HIS evening there is going to be a ball at the Embassy. The Countess will be there. We shall remain
until 2 o'clock. You have now an opportunity of seeing me alone. As soon as the Countess is gone, the servants will probably go out, and there will be nobody left but the Swiss, but he usually goes to sleep in his lodge. Come about half past eleven. Walk straight upstairs. If you meet anybody in the ante-room, ask if the Countess is at home. You will be told 'No.' in which case there will be nothing left for you to do but to go away again. But it is most probable that you will meet nobody. The maidservants will all be together in one room. On leaving the ante-room turn to

Two editors of Louisville. Ky. I. Willis Cole and William Warley, editors, respectively, of the Louisville Leader and the Louisville News, were to face trial at Madisonville, Ky., on September 27, charged by the County Attorney with libel.
That's the reason why we know that God does not use these blind powers of nature to punish anybody, because the wrong people get punished. The hardest part of the aftermath of this terrible storm will burden the backs of Florida black people.
If the Red Cross would insist upon treating all suffering people simply as humans in stricken southern Florida, the storm would seem like a divine remembrance to that Godforsaken country.
It is more likely to give a new excuse and a better opportunity to oppress the oppressed. We will hear soon that colored people are being compelled by the authorities to do all the dirty work; that they are the last ones fed in the long lines of the hungry; that they are jim-crowed like cattle and treated like dogs by the "relief" workers; that, being starved into stealing, they are shot down like prowling dogs by the soldiers, acting under the coward's cloak of martial law.

Biographical Sketch --- of --- Alexander S. Pushkin
ALEXANDER S. PUSHKIN was born in Moscow, June 7, 1799. His great-grandfather was a pure African Negro and was made a nobleman and general by Peter the Great.
From him Pushkin inherited the title of "Count." In 1820 Pushkin wrote the "Ode to Liberty," for which he would have been banished to Siberia, had he not escaped to Kishinev. Later he returned to Moscow.
Suspecting his wife of intimacy with Baron D'Anthes, son of the Dutch Minister, Pushkin challenged him to a duel and was mortally wounded. He died February 10, 1837, at the age of 38.
Great as is Pushkin's fame as a poet and writer, the average Negro knows little of him and it is for this reason that we take great pleasure in presenting this sketch and one of his stories to our readers. He was one of the world's greatest writers.
pression. The lips seemed to tremble, the eyes became animated; before the Countess stood an unknown man.
"Do not be alarmed, for heaven's sake, do not be alarmed!" said Hermann in a low but distinct voice. "I have no intention of doing you any harm. I have only come to ask a favor of you."
The old woman looked at him in silence, as if she had not heard what he had said. Hermann thought that she was deaf, and bending down towards her ear, he repeated what he had said. The aged Countess remained silent as before.
"You can insure the happiness of my life," continued Hermann, "and it will cost you nothing. I know that you can name three cards in order —"
Hermann stopped. The Countess appeared to understand what he wanted; she seemed as if seeking for words to reply.
"It was a joke," she replied at last. "I assure you it was only a joke."
"There is no joking about the matter," replied Hermann angrily. "Remember Chaplitzky, whom you helped to win."
The Countess became visibly uneasy. Her features expressed strong emotion, but they quickly resumed their former immobility.
"Can you not name me those three winning cards?" continued Hermann.
The Countess remained silent; Hermann continued.
"For whom are you preserving your secret? For your grandsons? They are rich without it; they do not know the worth of money. Your cards would be of no use to a spendthrift. He who cannot preserve his paternal inheritance, will die in want, even though he had a demon at his service. I am not a man of that sort; I know the value of money. Your cards will not be thrown away upon me. Come!"
He paused tremblingly awaiting her reply. The Countess remained silent: Hermann fell upon his knees.
"If your heart has ever known the feeling of love," said he. "if you remember its rapture, if you have ever smiled at the cry of your new-born child, if any human feeling has ever entered into your breast, I entreat you by the feelings of a wife, a lover, a mother, by all that is most sacred in life not to reject my prayer.
"Reveal to me your secret. Of what use is it to you? . . . Maybe it is connected with some terrible sin, with the loss of eternal salvation with some bargain with the devil. . . Reflect—you are old; you have not long to live—I am ready to take your sins upon my soul. Only reveal to me your secret. Remember that the happiness of a man is in your hands, that not only I, but my children, and grandchildren, will bless your memory and reverence you as a saint . . ."
The old Countess answered not a word. Hermann rose to his feet.
"You old hag!" he exclaimed, grinding his teeth, "then I will make you answer!"
With these words he drew a pistol from his pocket.

COLORED MOTION PICTURE TENDERS ISSUE STATEMENT
Say They Will Not Mislead Public by Deceit and False Propaganda Deny Claims of Brecher and Schiffman, and Say Only Negro Operators Not Working Are Those Out of the Lafayette
---
It is not the intention of the Colored Motion Picture Operators to deceive the public by any false propaganda. Our desire is merely to inform the public of the true state of affairs existing in the different theatres in Harlem. The Colored Motion Picture Operators, upon the advice of Mr. Frank Crosswalt, a colored official of the A. F. of L. made application to the Motion Picture Operators' Union. Local 306, A. F. of L., for membership and were accepted and granted all rights and privileges. They have since had no cause to regret their action. Insimulations to the effect that the union discriminates against its colored members is just so much bunk and open shop propaganda.
The presence in Harlem at this time of the union officials is proof of their willingness to fulfil to the limit their obligations to the colored members of the union.
In a letter appearing in the columns of last week's Amsterdam News Mr. Brecher, owner of the Lafayette, indulges in many misstatements and insinuations intended to deceive our people. He proves much of the 8 hour day, but since when has he become interested in the 8 hour day? Colored operators employed by the Lafayette were always made to work 11 hours a day, seven day week. Union conditions demanded that the Lafayette gives its operators a day off in every week, in accordance with the most enlightened social laws of the nation. The Lafayette thinks this too good for colored employees.
Under union conditions there would be two shifts daily, with a man working from 1 to 6:30, and another from 6:30 to 12. But the Lafayette thought it did not matter how intensively it exploited colored men. They are only Negroes, so work them eleven hours a day, a seven day week. Under union conditions the Lafayette would have to employ a seventh day or relief operator to relieve the regular operators on their day off. The Lafayette thought this would be giving work to too many colored men.
Under union conditions the payroll for the Lafayette operators would be $141.40 a week for two regular operators and a seventh day relief operator, as against $74 the management pays its colored operators under non-union conditions.
Under union conditions the relief operator would get $20.20 as against the $14 paid by the Lafayette to its colored relief man under non-union conditions.
We deny Mr. Brecher's statement that there are many colored operators out of work. There are none out of work, except the two thrown out by the Lafayette Theatre and replaced by non-union whites. Colored union operators are employed in the following theatres: The New Douglas, Roosevelt, Lincoln, Renaissance and Gem. The statement that colored operators are employed as relief operators in these union houses is as false as most of the statements made in Mr. Schiffman's letter.
The chief operators in the following theatres are colored: The New Douglas, Roosevelt, Renaissance and Gem. The reason the union demands shorter hours for Motion Picture Operators is because of the arduous and eye-straining nature of the work. The motion picture projector is no longer a mere mechanical contrivance, cranked by hand or made to operate by the simple closing of a switch. The projectionist of today must have an excellent knowledge of mechanics, electricity and optics, and is in a delicate and complicat-
The projectionist has a great responsibility, for a failure to measure up to the right standards means that all the producer, director, actor and cinematographer have striven for loses much of its artistic and commercial value. The pleasure of the audience is lessened, the exhibitor is subject to constant expense, and lives and property are endangered. The above answers Mr. Schiffman's statements as to the operator's job being "comparatively easy and simple." We are not making this statement to discourage any young man from taking up the study of motion picture operating, but to give the public an idea of the study and work necessary to become a first class operator.
We resent, and believe the pubi

forts to place the colored operators on the par of a porter in order to explain his indefensible treatment of the colored operators.
In conclusion we will say that the colored operators are prepared to carry this fight to a finish for union recognition and decent working hours and conditions. Colored workers are tired of doing skilled work for less pay than given to white workers. We have the same obligations to our children as the white workers have. We. too, want our children well-fed and decently clothed. We. too, want to educate our children. Theirs is the future, ours the duty to defend that future. We want a union: we want to live. We call upon the colored theatre-goers, the vast majority of whom are workers who suffer daily from the exploitation of bosses. We call upon them to back us in this fight for the rights of colored labor.

Former Editor Writes in From New Jersey
Briggs. Editing Publicity Paper for Textile Strikers, Speaks of Harlem Strike
A former editor of the Amsterdam News has come forward with a letter which, in adhering to our principles of at least trying to be fair all around, will command the attention of those interested, whether they are for or against the union. Cyril V. Briggs welded a trenchant pen for years on this paper. When he severed his connection here he devoted his entire time to the publication of the Crusader, a magazine which fought for the rights of Negroes.
Mr. Briggs is at present strike publicity manager for the big Passalic Textile strike which has lasted over eight months, a condition which is known in every quarter of the globe. Through his publicity thousands of dollars have been raised for the strike relief. The union in whose behalf he speaks conducts four food stores, children's kitchens feeding two thousand children a day, and a playground. His letter, naturally, will command the respect which we owe to one whose timely editorials in this paper found great response at the hands of thousands of readers:

Sporting and Dramatic Editor.
News. Mr dear Mr, Poukherky.
MY dear Mr. Dougerty
Permit me the use of your columns to convey my congratulations to the colored motion picture operators on their action in joining the ranks of organized labor, and my best wishes and strong conviction that success will attend the just fight they are now waging against the unfairness and hypocrisy of certain theatrical interests. Of course, with zero workers we were waking up to the necessity of economic organization. Unorganized, the workers always get the worst of it. Employers never do the right thing simply because it is the right thing, but in every case because of the pressure of labor. Those workers who have not intelligence enough to organize possess no economic power and are in no position to exert effective pressure. To protect our interests as workers—and over 97 per cent of our group belong in that category—and secure higher wages and shorter hours of labor, the Negro workers must organize along economic lines. The labor unions are increasingly opening up to us, as the American labor movement gains knowledge and experience in the struggle and goes about rectifying its former mistakes.
Organized labor is beginning to realize that the interests of all workers—black and white—are intricately interwoven and can never be separated. Bars that formerly were raised against us have been lowered by the force of economic conditions and the growing influence of the left-wing element within the unions. The reactionary leadership that formerly kept the ranks of the workers divided in the face of the united front of the bosses is fast fading from the scene.
The Negro workers should take full advantage of the changing spirit of the labor movement. We cannot longer afford to be parasites in the sense that while being beneficaries in every case of the

for recognition of their right to organize is one. The intelligent display of solidarity with their white fellow workers by the Negro mill workers, of Passaic, N. J. is unusual. In the latter cases, are over 600 Negro textile workers participating in the big eight months old textile strike against wage cuts, long hours and inhuman conditions in the mills. Many of these colored strikers are acting leading roles as picket captains, union delegates, etc. These colored textile strikers are establishing a glorious tradition for the Negro workers by their heroism and determined fight against the attacks of the mill-controlled police of the strike zone.

No Negro capable of doing his own thinking will be deceived by the letters of the Lafayette owner and his general manager appearing in your columns last week.
Mr. Brecher opened his letter by flaunting the statement, true or otherwise, that he has paid out to colored employees $180,000 since acquiring the Lafayette. Out of his own pocket or from money paid in by colored patrons and of which he got the lion's share?
With the exception of the manager, Mr. Brecher says, the em-
Owing to lack of space we find it a physical impossibility to reproduce an article submitted to this newspaper with reference to the strike of Local No. 306 against the Lafayette Theatre by Dr. Hubert H. Harrison. The length of this article precludes its appearance in the current issue of The Amsterdam News, and we hope that those concerned will see this matter in the right light, as it is our intention to try to deal fairly with all sides in the controversy now going on between the Brecher interests and the Labor Union.
ployees are all colored. And why is not a colored man manager of a theatre drawing its revenue solely from colored people? Does Mr. Brecher think a manager's salary too much to be paid a colored man? He evidently thinks union wages too good for colored operators. He tells us that he considers $60 a week fair pay for what he terms a "comparatively easy and simple job" and in the same breath he says "the salary of the operators under our conditions are higher than the union conditions." This last statement is of a sort with the usual hypocrisy of the open shop bosses. Their wages are always higher, conditions better, etc., than under union conditions, the open shoppers claim. Yet they always oppose the union and the right of their workers to collective bargaining, by which means only can workers protect themselves.
The Lafayette owner very evidently has little respect for the intelligence of the people who patronize his house when he declares "the colored operators have more to lose than to gain by being members of the union." That statement is so patently false that one marvels at the effrontery of the man making it.
Every thinking Negro should rally to the fight of the Negro union motion picture operators. These colored operators have themselves testified to the benefits accruing from union membership in higher wages, etc. Colored theatregoers should back to the limit this fight of the colored operators for recognition of their right to do collective bargaining and by the use of the union weapon to protect their standard of living and secure decent conditions of employment. The bosses have their united front AGAINST the workers. For our own protection the workers must unite and organize. A united front of the workers against the united front of the bosses is the sole salvation of the workers. Organize!

A western picture is always appealing, but a picture like this one with the added attraction of the famous Rin-Tin-Tin is particularly appealing and will doubtless draw capacity attendance at each showing.
For the week-end feature, the management has secured that big, strong epic of the screen, "Men of Steel," with Milton Sills and Doris Kenyon. This is indeed a "big" picture, towering over many

Filled with beautiful scenes, replete with thrills and gripping from start to finish, "Men of Steel" is a picture that all should see and that all who do are certain to thoroughly enjoy. The work of Milton Sills in this classic is said to be his very best and the support received from pretty Doris Kenyon is a contributing factor in making this picture one of the finest ever produced.

Operators' Fight Summed Up Next Week SAVOY READY FOR MANDARIN BALL Jackson Publicity Man for Columbia Circuit Operators' Fight Summed Up Next Week
"Billboard Jackson" Now Exploitation Agent for Burlesque Circuit
Special Publicity by Colored Writer Will Mean Much to Performers and Newspapers
Two weeks since "The Washington Tribune" announced that J. A. (Billboard) Jackson had retired from the post of Executive Editor of that publication; and, inasmuch as Jackson is perhaps the most widely known newspaper man of his race, Negro journalism was astonished for the marked advance made by the Washington paper since he became identified with it, but the acquirement of 20 per cent of its capital stock since last August has been one of the wonders of colored newspaper life.
Last week Jackson joined the publicity staff of the Columbia Amusement Company, the big burlesque organization of the country, after a conference with Mr. Sam Sorbbner, the astute president, and a group of circuit officials in Pittsburgh, to do several weeks' special exploitation work.
Mr. Jackson has been engaged to devote special attention to the promotion of publicity for the colored shows of the circuit in several mid-west cities. The position is of a good character, involves much traveling, and gives opportunity for a tremendous service in race relations, education and adjustment.
Jack, or "Billboard" Jackson, as he is best known throughout the country, is well fitted for the newly created position, as he enjoys the acquaintanceship and confidence of virtually all of the editors of his race group and a large number of the other group. Just three weeks ago the conservative "Boston Transcript" (the 130-year-old daily) paid him a nice tribute for his handling of the publicity in connection with the Masonic conventions held in Boston in August. Jackson's appointment to the general staff of the big circuit of nearly half hundred theatres and as many shows is further proof of the serious interest that the officials of this circuit are bestowing upon the Negro profession.
The Columbia circuit is conserving to the Negro performer all of the advantages that have come to the race since "Shuffle Along" revived public interest in our artists, "Seven-Eleven," the pioneer Negro production which Jack Goldberg placed on the circuit to become a top money attraction in its first season, has created a place for two other full sized shows and several half-and-half productions. All of them have justified themselves; and in pursuit of as complete and fair chance for these shows as has any white show on the circuit, Mr. Scribner has determined that some one fully familiar with Negro show business and in sympathy with the hopes of race artists shall present their stories to the public. It is a bold move, and one that required the courage and wisdom that characterizes the Columbia executives to bring it into effect for even the

We may be certain of hereafter knowing all about the merits of "Seven-Eleven Company" and its "Watermelon" production; the big "Rain" to go show, "4-11-44," Dave Marion's double show, and the Jimmy Cooper "Black and White Revue." Altogether these shows furnish employment for more than 300 Negro artists whose salaries represent a weekly addition of more than $25,000 to the wealth of the race. Columbia burlesque means, besides clean amusement, just about a million dollars per year to the Negro. This is a consideration that lends importance to Mr. Jackson's new job and entitles the Columbia officials to a more than passing esteem from theatre-goers of the race.
Like every instrument of advance for race professionals of any vocation, the Columbia circuit officers are not finding entirely smooth sailing. Local conditions in some of the cities of the circuit continue to defy their efforts to improve amusement conditions, but progress is being made.
"Billboard" Jackson is equipped to help this along. He is a member of almost all of the important race organizations and is an indefatigable worker in most of them. He ranks among the higher pow-

Social Season in Full Swing With Advent of Chinese Ball
Mysterious Preparations Under Way for Big Event at the Savoy
Yea, verily. Friday next is to be a banner night for certain persons interested in seeking the thrills out of life as they caper merrily about in an entrancing Oriental atmosphere. The Chinese Mandarin Ball, that much talked about spectacle, takes place at the Savoy Ballroom, Friday evening, October 1. To the tune of Chinatown My Chinatown, this gorgeous event will add its enticing charm to effectively combat the least sign of the blues in you.
When East meets West a sense of romance hovers about ready to take you in its grasp and this occasion will be no exception.
Anticipating that because of the huge success of the first Chinese Mandarin Ball there would be a demand from the public to make this affair a semi-annual occasion, the management of the Savoy have planned this event since last July. They have had the necessary time to send their purchasing department into the most remote corners of New York to locate souvenirs and novelties that would be representative of the real China and from all reports these eminent

gentlemen have done their work well because the souvenirs to be given away are decidedly attractive and extremely occidental in design. More than that yet is the news that the greatest Chinese theatrical stars of the age have been engaged to provide the entertainment. Savoy patrons will remember with keen delight the wonderful bill which was presented at the first Chinese Ball.
A ten piece orchestra comprised of all Chinese musicians will also be one of the surprising features, the first Chinese jazz band, in fact, that has ever played in this country. This band has lately arrived

Games Started on Saturday and Ended on Sunday with Enthusiastic Gatherings on Hand on
BY ARTHUR E. FRANCIS.
In the first annual contest for the Capitol Joshua Cockburn Trophy, emblematic of State supremacy in tennis, between New York, New Jersey and Pennsylvania, a team representing New York won from a team representing New Jersey on Saturday and Sunday, Sept. 25 and 26, by seven matches won to one lost.
Owing to the absence of an association in the State of Pennsylvania that State was not included in the contest this year.
If the future contests for this valuable trophy are to be judged by the playing and interest exhibited by this initial endeavor of the event, then the Cockburn Trophy contests are bound to be by far the most interesting and keenly contested games in our section of the country.
The games started on Saturday on the courts of the Ideal Tennis Club, West 125th street, with matches between the ladies of the team, the first of which found Mrs. Estella Alston, recent runner up in the New York State open tourney, representing New York, against Mrs. C. Thornhill of New Jersey. Mrs. Alston, by playing a remarkably fast, heady, all court game, won the first set at 6-0. In the second set, however, the New Jersey entry braced considerably and pushed the New Yorker to the limit before losing this set at 10-8. giving New York first blood. The second match brought together Resgle Weir of New York and Herman Morrow of New Jersey, both premier junior players of their respective States, and the latter being in addition eastern junior champion. This match did not bring out the best tennis in either lad, the first set going to Young Weir by the score of 7-5, the Jersey lad playing as if he was afraid of the hard drives of the New Yorker, and the closeness of the score was caused by the many errors made by Weir, who did not seem able to get his drives over with any degree of consistency, superinduced perhaps by the steady chop strokes of the Jersey lad. Weir speeded up in the second set, however, and quickly ran out the set at 6-1.
The ladies' doubles, with Mrs. Frances Gittens and Mrs. Emma Leonard for New York and Mrs. B. Saddler and Mrs. C. Thornhill for New Jersey, resulted in another victory for New York; the score being 1-6, 6-3, 6-1. The New Yorkers were outplayed in the first set, but soon got going, taking the next two sets easily.
On Sunday, with one of the largest galleries in attendance, the match was continued when Fred Johnson for New York faced W. Willis for New Jersey in the first match of the day. This match proved to be the first and last victory for New Jersey in the series. Willis, playing a deadly accurate game, with plenty of pace in his chop drives, mastered Johnson in three sets at 6-4, 2-6, 6-2.
George Smith of New York then faced Kenneth Worde of New Jersey and this match provided the opportunity for the crowd to see one of the most remarkable games of the series. Smith won the first set, after a hard battle, at 6-4, but the former New Jersey champion won the second handily at 6-2, and continued his deadly work in the third set for a lead of 5-1. Every

New Yorker with the exception of "Phil" Lovy conceded victory to the New Jersey player, but Phil was heard to say, "A match isn't won until the last point is counted," and had the extreme satisfaction of saying "I told you so," for George Smith put up one of the games rallies ever seen in Negro tennis in many a year; coming from behind at 1-5, he won the next four straight games to duce the set & five all, after which they jockeyed in holding the lead until Smith won out in the 18th game at 10-3.
The feature match of the day brought out Eyre R. Sallch, eastern and national champion, for New York, against Solomon Worde, New England and New Jersey champion. Worde showed a brand of tennis that was perhaps capable of defeating any player in the Metropolitan District with the exception of the man he was playing. Before Snitch, who has not played much since his St. Louis triumph, got warmed up to his work. Worde ran through the first set for a win at 6-3. The national champion, however, got going and ran out the next two sets for the match at 3-6, 6-3, 6-2.
Mrs. Emma Leonard, New York and Miss E. Marcellus, New Jersey, then met in a ladies' singles match, and Miss Marcellus won the first set at 6-4, but finally fell before the steady, accurate placing and brainy generalship of the New Yorker, who took the next two sets at 6-2, 6-1. K. Hughes, New York, took H. Butler, New Jersey, into camp in straight sets at 6-3, 6-4. Hughes is a newcomer in New York tennis, and has worked himself up to a high position in the New York ranking among the men players. The men's

doubles between Saitch and Smith, New York, and Worde and Worde, New Jersey, in the first match, and Hughes and Spooner, New York, and Butler and Hill, New Jersey, in the second match, had to be called owing to darkness. New York, however, had won 7 of the 11 matches, or one more than was necessary to hold the cup. Several very commendable things featured the games. First: New Jersey, for once, had all of their first line players. Second: They were all on time, New York players being late, though living in Harlem. Third: Six of the eight matches required the full three sets to determine the winner. Fourth: The enthusiasm of the crowd, who cheered a good play for either side.
Mr. Gerald Norman of Flushing, N. Y., acted as referee of the matches. The games next year will be held in New Jersey and will probably include the State of Pennsylvania, as required by the articles of agreement governing the cup. At some future date we will publish these articles for the information of the tennis public.
Bacharach Comedians Will Feature Games
The past world series that Clark Griffith's Washington Senators figured in with Nick Altrock and Al Schact capering their antics on the coaching lines will have nothing on the present series between Kansas City and the Bacharach Glants, when the Bees' funny men begin to do their "stuff." With Country Brown and Roy Roberts on the coaching lines the fans are sure to be kept in good humor with their comedy antics and clever coaching. Brown, without a doubt, is the most comical player in colored ranks and aside from his clowning stunts he is capable of playing a splendid article of ball.

SIX STRAIGHT!!
The Lincoln Cubs added another victory to their recent string of victories. Layson started in the box for the Cubs but was removed in the 5th inning and replaced by Robinson, who pitched winning ball for the Cubs.
The Cubs staged a batting rally in the 5th inning, batting in seven runs and sewing up the game. This is the Cubs' sixth straight since returning to Central Park. With two men on and none out in the 5th, Williams started his teammates to victory by knocking a triple over the shortstop's head.

The manner in which Dempsey fought, or rather didn't fight, might make auspicious people think that maybe the thing was a bargain rather than a battle. Dempsey floundered and faulted and halted. If he had had an opponent like Harry Wills he would probably have been knocked cold in the first few rounds.
Tunney could clear the atmosphere and make himself a worthy champion in all eyes, and not a mere pretense like Jess Willard, if he would agree that in the next six months he will fight the best boxer that can be gotten of any race or color from anywhere. There is so much corrupting money in this rotten game now that a "world champion" cannot be, like Caesar's wife, "above suspicion" just because he is champion in name. Tunney's attitude in this matter will immediately gain or lose for him the respect of the more decent portion of mankind. He has already been reported to be in sympathy with the cowardly business of dodging Negro contenders. But now that he is champion, in name at least, what will he say about it?
Perhaps we shall soon hear. If he "draws the color line" the doubt will become a conviction that he was put up and put over for that very reason.
Lafayette Emporium Double News Service
When the management of the Lafayette Billiard Emporium, which is housed in the Old Fifteenth Regiment Armory, corner Seventh avenue and 132nd street, announced through the columns of this sheet that they would announce the complete returns of the Dempsey and Tunney championship fight, it seems that they were farsighted in their original idea of double news service for these special events, for as it turned out, Old Pleuvis visited his wrath on 130,000 people and some of the telegraph wire at the Sesquil, putting them out of commission just as the big fight started. But, did this unforeseen calamity, which belated some of the world's greatest papers effect the Emporium's double news service? Not a bit. The large crowd who took no chances but came to the Emporium never knew until they read in the daily papers next day that such a thing occurred.
Now for the battle for supremacy of America's own and greatest out-door sport the world's baseball series between the Yankees and the St. Louis. The management not only guarantees the complete returns of the game over their own special double news service but

Tennis players and fans met around the festive board on Saturday night, Sept. 25, when they gathered at the St. Luke's Dining Rooms on West 130th street to do honor to Eyre R. Saitch, recently crowned national man's singles and doubles champion, at a testimonial banquet in his honor.
For weeks preparations were under way by a committee to make the banquet a long remembered one, and it is generally agreed that the committee succeeded in their efforts.
Over 100 guests were present, and a more representative body of men and women of our race would have been hard to find.
Saltch, in winning the national championships, brought honor to New York, and our Harlem community in particular, and the guests present on Saturday night represented the best people in New York, and Harlem in particular.
Gerald Norman, former president of the New York Tennis Association, and present executive secretary of the American Tennis Association, was presented by Arthur E. Francis, chairman of the Banquet Committee, as the master of ceremonies and toastmaster, and under his guidance a well balanced program of speakers was presented to the banqueters. Those who made short addresses were as follows: Dr. T. E. Hanson, president of the New York Tennis Association; Dr. J. I. Hoage, first vicepresident of the American Tennis Association; Mr. E. K. Jones, treasurer of the American Tennis Association; Mr. Parker, assistant executive secretary of the Y. M. C. A., West 135th street branch; Dr. J. Hubert, executive secretary of the New York Urban League; Mr L. Saitch, father of the national champion; Dr. E. P. Roberts, formerly commissioner of education in New York City, and Dr. E. E. Rawlins.
Complimentary letters were read from the president of the United States Lawn Tennis Association and the president of the American Tennis Association, both bodies controlling the great masses of tennis players of both races in the United States.
A handsome travelling bag was presented to the national champion through Mr. Edmund Burke, a former president of the New York Tennis Association. This present was a gift from the tennis fans and players of New York and was, made possible through the initiative and efforts of Mr. E. Braithwaite, one of the foremost fans in Harlem, and steadfast Saltch booster.
The national champion, called upon to respond to the many remarks, made a wonderfully eloquent speech, which showed conclusively that he possessed other marked qualifications besides tennis.
The invocation was offered by

Cinders Chips of Salem Crescent A. C., 1926
BY ERNIE WINTH
The Salem Crescent track team has done very well when one considers the handicaps which confronted it during the past season. The creditable performances are as follows: The season opened on June 13, and Salem was represented by a mile relay composed of the following men: J. Sheppard, M. Jackson, H. Greenidge, the track manager, and S. Levy, our president and truck captain. This relay forced the Holy Name Club relay, anchored by Pincus Sobers, the "met" and junior national 880 yard champion, to create a new track champion, to create a new track champion of 2:34 for the Ulmer Park track. On July 4 E. Dawkins, E. Greenidge, and E. Giles scored in the 100 yd. and 600 yd. races at Bayonne and City College. On July 24 the team won the point trophy, when points were scored by Dawkins, Giles, and Timbers, in the 100 yd., 1,000 yd., and 300 yd., respectively. Others who competed were Blanchard and Greenidge. The team also scored in Caledonia meet on Labor Day. September 19 Dawkins won the county 200 yd. championship, and was second in the 100 yd., Blanchard was second in the 220 yd. The season closed with the New York A. C. meet at Travers Island, September 25. This is a summary of the doings of Salem's track team during the outdoor season, 1926. Many of the athletes will return to their colleges, among them being M. Jackson, H. Greenidge, T. Hernandes, and S. Levy. Salem should be well represented on the board floor this season.
Atlantic City All "Het" Up Over World's Series
All is excitement down in Atlantic City over the fact that the Bees have copped the hunting in the Eastern circuit and the Playground of the World is to witness a world series tussle in their own backyard and it is a foregone conclusion that the Bees' ball orchard will be taxed to its capacity when the Kay See Monarchs line up against the home talent on that stretch of Jersey sand. Fitting and prompt ceremony will mark the opening game Friday. Oct. 1 Mayor Ed. Bader, Councilman William Bacharach, whose family name has been applied to the Bees, and other city officials and celebrities of the seashore city will grace boxes and assist in the lid lifting.
Lincoln University Getting Ready for Big Clash With Tuskegee
Sixty-seven Men Report for Team, Which Will Go Into Practice Under Coach Young for Season's
Presented with the most formidable schedule that has ever been prepared for any Lincoln team, and with only one member, Captain Grasty, of last year's team, returning to Lincoln, Coach "Lissy" Young has started on the Herculean task of trying to develop a group of unknown cubs into a strong fighting machine of Lions.
Despite the hard task before him and the handup of only one man as a nucleus, Coach Young and his assistants, "Doc" Martin and "Berry" Walls, are not in the least disgraced. The cry which Tuskegee is broadcasting of "Beat Lincoln" is spurring them on with a determination to turn out a great Lincoln team.

Practice was started on the 10th, and each day has brought out additional men until at the present time there are 67 on the squad. The unlikely ones will be rapidly eliminated and only those who show promise will be retained. The first scrimmage was held on Thursday and several of the newcomers showed up well. Captain Grasty shows all of the fire and aggressiveness which have made him one of the best tackles playing anywhere. Unless some of the new material shows up well Grasty may play center. Hughes, from Boston, looks to be a certainty as one of the tackles. He is somewhat larger than Grasty, and has the same kind of dash and fight. Dyer, from Wylie, Texas, is a very strong candidate for the center position. He reminds one very much of Goodman of last year's team. Jayson, the Porto Rican, who was a substitute last year, is fighting hard to fill the place formerly occupied by his brother.
Robinson, one of the new men, is showing considerable strength and working hard for a line position. Wallis, a substitute last year, will probably fill Calloway's place at guard. Coach Young is rather disappointed that Walker of last year's team has not returned, but he has placed great hopes in the further development of Longshore, a former star of the Orange Iliqua School. "Like" Young, a brother of Coach Young, who was formerly at Morgan, is making a bid for a backfield position. He is a good pointer and with training will prob-

ably fill Anderson's shoes. Hibler, who shows many of the characteristics of "Jazz" Byrd, is almost a sure bid for haltback. Martin, a younger brother of the celebrated coaches, is also an aspirant for backfield position, Charleston, who formerly played on the Massachusetts "Aggies," is a backfield possibility. Williams of New York and Carter of Baltimore will fight neck and neck for the quarterback position.
Other candidates are now showing possibilities, and every day will show more and more development, Graduate Manager Alexander and other interested alumnae who have seen the squad feel more than hopeful of the season's possibilities.
LINCOLN GIANTS AGAIN DIVIDE
In their final appearance in New York this season, the Harrisburg Giants divided a double header with the Lincoln Giants at the Catholic Protectory Oval, Sunday, September 26. The Lincolnins copped the first game by a score of 14-1—the only run the visitors made came as the result of a circuit clout by "Fails" Jenkins in the very first inning. Chambers, who was on the mound for the Lincolnins, allowed but six scattered hits.
Harrisburg turned the tables in the second game by making 10 runs in two innings off Gilmore. Glentaner relieved Gilmore and allowed but one hit in the last four innings, but the ten run lead was too much to overcome. The final score was 10-8.

BACHARACH GIANTS HAVE WELL-BALANCED TEAM
Elaborate Program of Chinese Entertainment Charming Chinese Souvenirs to Everyone
DREAMY, DREAMY CHINATOWN
World's Finest Ballroom Lenox Avenue,140-141st Street
When the Monarchs, who apparently have the fourth straight gonfalon of the western circuit nailed to their mast, hit the rails for points east to become one of the participants in the annual tussle to determine "Who's Who" in the realm of horse-hide encased agate, the boys from the far reaches who have quaffed the cup of victory and also drained the dregs of defeat in preceding inter-league combats that carried the title at stake, go to the mat with the Bacharach Giants, they will find the Atlantic City team a foe worthy of their steel. Summing the outfit up only a biased one would not concede them a well balanced club. To begin with, dashing Dick Lundy was slipped the assignment of commander-in-chief last fall, when John Henry Lloyd was practically let out, and Lundy in turn slipped the Atlantic City town its first championship team. With Lundy the lead it's not so much for a player to follow instructions but to emulate example to the peer of shortstops in the east disports day in and day out. As a player he has truly stepped out in a class by himself, as a leader his work has been an inspiration that has made his team mates rise to heights and drive through to a pennant after a poor start. The rest of the infield can field, throw and think. At first base, "Chance" Cummings, awkward and unguily, is also shifty and cunning, his ability to handle difficult throws is recognized throughout the league and "Chance" is always pulling a smart play. At second base Ramondo Garcia, imported by Lundy from Cuba, has justified Lundy's judgment of material, playing his first season in the States. Garcia has fit into the Bacharach combination and proves a worthy running mate for the redoubtable Richard Ollie Marcell at third base is no stranger in the land of barbecue. Marcell, a native Texan, had made several trips west with the Bacharach Giants when the club was under the banner of the late John Connors of New York. Marcell, whose sobriquet is "Scrappy Ollie," is one of those fielding fiends who relishes the rasping razzberry and oftimes invites the wrath of the fans.
The Bees' outfield of the plug-
ing, consistent Ambrose Reed, the sensational Chaney White and Luther Farrell forms a creditable array of fly chasers. Farrell is a semi-converted hurler who failed to make the grade with other clubs in the league as a hurler but has shown to be a big advantage with the Bees and has hit the ball so hard and timely that he has been stationed in right field when not taking his turn in the box. The receiving will be taken care of by Bill Jones, the Jacksonville lad, who has none of the fluts but all of the essentials that go to make up a reliable backstop. Jones will have Baltimore Joe Lewis as a running mate. Lewis joined the ranks late in the season after Bill Gatewood, the veteran maskman, sustained a broken finger that will keep him out of the series.
The hurlers are banked on as the real TNT of the seashore gang. Arthur "Rats" Henderson, the Richmond youth; Claude Grier, who matriculated from A. & T. College, Greensboro, N. C.; Hubert Lockhurt, another school boy who hails from Talledega College; Lefty Farrell, Al Mitchell and Roy Roberts round out a squad that is touted to stop the Rogan, Duncan, McNair combination. The reserve strength of the club lies in Country Brown and McKinley Wallace, two utility men.

"Eggle" Dallard Lost to Bees in World's Series.
"Eggle Dallard," the fleet-footed outfielder acquired late in the season from Baltimore, is confined to the hospital in Atlantic City with scant likelihood of him being able to participate in the present series. A throat infection has caused Dallard to take to a cot.
Cubs Win Final Game
The Columbia Cubs won the final game of the season by defeating the Carlton' B. B. C. (white). It was the attack of the Cubs' heavy artillery which caused the white boys to toss up the sponge, or to be exact, to show the yellow streak. They lost not only to the Cubs but also a place in the hearts of their own people.
The Carltonts were leading in the seventh inning, 5 runs to the Cubs' 3, their side had been retired and our boys were, coming to bat, led off by their versatile manager, Charles Bourke, who hit a two bagger; Cuba Monsanto followed with a terrific single to center, but continued to second on a fumble, reaching there via a fade away slide, the ball reaching second with him, but due to the faulty way in which the white boy covered the sack he could not catch the $^*$ fleet-footed Cuba, who was called safe by the umpire. Bourke scored during the play, but the Carltonts would not play if Cuba remained on second; maintaining our rights we stood fast, the Carltonts refused to play; we win thereby a decisive moral ball game.
WALKER A. C. OPENS THIS SAT.
Uptown fans are looking forward to Saturday night, when the old Commonwealth will open its doors under the name of the New Walker A. C. With Joey Ross, of Mulberry Bend, considered by many experts as responsible for Fidel La Barba's temporary retirement in the flyweight division, pitted against Black Bill, world's colored flyweight champion, in the main 10-rounder, Harlem, fans are assured of a scrap that will be filled with action from gong to gong.
Ross was twice matched to meet the flyweight king; once at the Garden and again at Boyle's Thirty Acres, but the 112-pound champion wanted no part of Joey's game. Because of his evident fear of Ross, the latter's manager will claim the flyweight croyn if Joey beats Black Bill Saturday night. The Cuban is one of the outstanding contenders and he is certain to give Ross a tough ride from start to finish.

Eastern League Holds the Spotlight
HILLDALE EVEN WITH FARMERS
The Hildale Club of Darby, Pa. evened its season's account with the Farmers by taking the Glendalers over the jumps twice at Farmers Oval Sunday. The colored tossers won the first game by a score of 5 to 4 and the second by 11 to 4, a six-run rally in the ninth inning of the nightcap soothing the visitors' feelings for the double shut-out they suffered in a previous twin bill at Glendale. Each team pounded out 10 hits in the opener and, although the Farmers really exhibited cleaner fielding than did the Hildales, a misjudged fly really decided the contest. Hon Wiley twirled for the Farmers, while Lee worked for the Hildales. Farmers staked Hehl to a three-run lead in the twilight tilt, but he weakened in the fourth and staggered through the fifth. Joe Fay, young southpaw, held the Darbyites in check up to the last round. Both games were replete with snappy fielding.
Mackey, Hilldale catcher, did some tall hitting. In the opener he got four hits in five turns, among them being two doubles. A home run and a single were his contributions to the Hilldale cause in the nightcap. Chad See got three out of four in the second clash, one of his blows being a homer. Robinson and Lee also hit for the circuit in the nightcap. Howie Loesch was the individual fielding star. He grabbed several hot grounders that looked good for bases, and made accurate pegs to first base
The Hildales were leading by 5 to 4 with two out and two on in the ninth, which gave the Farmers a fighting chance to break oven. Fay intentionally passed. Mackey to get at Johnson. Fay then lost control and passed Johnson, forcing in a run. Thomas also drew a free ticket, forcing in a second run. Lee cleared the right field wall, sending three runners in ahead of him.
Mackey's fly, which was misjudged by See, proved the telling blow in the early affair. It went for two bases and resulted in the Hildales' winning run. The scores:

A.M.E. Conference Up in Arms
A.M.E. Conference Up in Arms
Resent Action of Bishop Heard in Transferring Churches
Members of the New York Conference of the A. M. E. Church were up in arms against the action of Bishop W. H. Heard in what they said was his attempt to save the Rev. M. W. Thornton in the Bridge Street Church affair. The conference met at New Rochelle last Tuesday.
The bishop's action exchanged Metropolitan A. M. E., of which the Rev. J. R. Robinson is pastor, and the Bridge Street church to different conferences because the latter church refused to recognize the Rev. M. W. Thornton as presiding elder.
The reception of the Manhattan District Conference and Sunday School Convention was given at New Rochelle, N. Y., at Mt. Carmel A. M. E. Church last Monday. Among the speakers were the Rev. S. H. V. Gumbs, presiding elder; Bessie Randolph Henri and Judge Samuel E. Swinburne.
Tuesday morning the conference was formally opened. The District sermon was preached by the Rev. D. Ward Nichols of Emmanuel A. M. E. Church. The Rev. J. Julian Jenkins read a significant paper on the condition of public schools as they affect the Negro.
The Rev. H. K. Spearman spoke on the intellectual status of the people.
Dr. R. R. Downs sounded the horn of his supposed radicalism in a paper, "The Best Means to Reedem African Methodism in Manhattan." He stressed the importance of intelligent and sympathetic minsters in our New York pulpits. The Rev. M. E. Jackson spoke on Tuesday night.
A. M. E. MINISTERS FORM ALLIANCE
The ministers of the New York Conference of the A. M. E. Church met Monday, Sept. 20, at the Missionary Department of the A. M. E. Church, 112 W. 120th street, for the purpose of organizing into what is called the Manhattan Institute. The Rev. S. H. V. Gumbs was elected president; the Rev. H. K. Spearman, first vice-president, and the Rev. J. Julian Jenkins, secretary.
Many questions affecting the A. M. E. Church in New York were discussed, particularly the annexation of Bridge Street Church in Brooklyn to the Manhattan District Conference in order to attain and maintain some semblance of peace and harmony, seemingly impossible under the Rev. Montrose W. Thornton, presiding elder of the Brooklyn District.

Last Sunday was Bible quotation day, and it was very inspiring, Elder M. C. Strachan of the Second Harlem Seven Day Adventist Church, who has preached for several Sundays past, has been asked by Mrs. Lewis to preach every Sunday. Elder Strachan has accepted the call.

After the morning service the members of the trustees', stewards', stewardesses', ushers' and Sunday school boards, Building Fund, class leaders, choir, Trustees' Relief Association, Ladies' Aid, Foreign Mission Board and other auxiliaries were photographed.

Acceptances to participate in the services have been received from Bishop Luther B. Wilson, resident bishop; Bishop R. E. Jones and I. B. Scott, the Rev. Ernest Lyons, former pastor of St. Mark's, and Revs. Handy, Mitchell, Butler and Virgin, the four latter being sent out from St. Mark's Church.

Columbia, S. J. D., New York University, who will be assistant professor in charge of Applied Economics, and will coach debating: U. S. Maxwell and a graduate student of the same university, who will instruct in science. The English department will have added its staff Miss Helen L. Watts, A. B. Smith College and A. M. Columbia who will take place of Miss Cashin, who is on leave of absence to study at the University of Chicago. J. E. Suggs, A. B., University of Illinois, is to be director of physical education and will head all athletic activities. Miss Maurele Fuller, A. B. and A. M. from Searstr College, will assist religious students. Lavergne Gregor, A. B. Ohio Wesleyan, will English and Latin in the high school department and Miss H. Belle Rafford will be the matron of the house for high school girls, and will also do some assistant teaching in the high school.
Miss Susan Mendellhall is to be dean of women. She was formerly dean of women at Steven College and international secretary for women students in New York City. Her A. B. and A. M. degrees were received from Columbia University. Miss Colleen Jones is the new matron of Jubilee Hall and brings to her position much experience gained as matron of the Iowa Federation Home and in social and church work.

Mother Zion Church Brings Anniversary Celebration to a Close
The Rev. Dr. J. W. Brown, in Sermon, Implores Members Not to Forget Those Who Made Erection of New Church Possible
The first anniversary of the erection of the New Mother Zion Church and the one hundred and thirtieth anniversary of its organization came to a close on last Sunday. Bishop J. S. Caldwell preached the opening sermon the Sunday before and the Rev. Dr. J. W. Brown, the pastor, preached the closing sermon on Sunday morning. Among other things, he said:
"It is very helpful now and then to stop and think of those who have gone on before us, and to contemplate upon the noble deeds. This is one of the reasons why changing an anniversary. This organization is 130 years old. This beautiful and spacious edifice is one year old. We pause to give thanks, to revere the memory of others who labored before us, also to make a forward look."
"I cannot pass through this season without thinking of Bishops Hood and Walters, of Eato. Fenderson, Rives, Nickson, Chase, Landrine, W. David Brown, Charles Davis, Rev. Allen, Charles Brent, Charles Thomas, among the men. Among the women I am thinking of Charlotte Fisher, Elizabeth Tucker, Margaret Garnet, Nettie Brown, Lemuma Scott, Emma Brent, Martha Faye, Nealie Arrington, Angela Savoy, Priscilla Angela Rawlins, Carrie Reed, Ida Aglein. There are many others but I must let you continue to call the roll.
"We are commanded not to forget the past. To forget the past means ignorance of God's providence. To forget the past shows great ingratitude. I want to ask that you do not forget who are laboring with you today. You cannot afford to forget the present pastor and officers who laureated the erection of this beautiful church. May these anniversaries prop up that the memory of those who labor may be kept green."
Services were under the auspices of the Woman's Home and Foreign Missionary Society and were held in the evening. Mrs. Ida Wallace was mistress of ceremonies and Mrs. Lella Walters speaker.
Monday the anniversary reception and reunion was held. The address delivered by Dr. E. Haynes, secretary Commission on the Church and Race Relations, Federal Council of the Churches of Christ in America.
This congregation will hold baptism services at Mt. Olivet Baptist Church on Sunday, Oct. 10, at p.m. The Community House activities will begin Oct. 1. Silas Glenn has been engaged by the board of management as physical director.

Business League Has Regional Organizations
TUSKEGEE INSTITUTE, Ala.
Sept. 20. As a part of its program to render a more positive business service the National Negro Business League in its recent convention in Cleveland, Ohio, adopted a new plan of regional organization which divides the country into eighteen districts, each, with a regional director, who will also act as a vice-president of the league. Each district is to be a district that with its officers elected by the members of the various local leagues within its jurisdiction. The plan is to have annual regional meetings prior to the national convention. The regional director will keep a careful watch over the economic and business conditions in his district, and will make a study of its opportunities for business development. He will also keep the national secretary informed of striking and unusual examples which will be published in the newly authorized Business League Bulletin and other periodicals.
"The practice of dividing the
country into provinces is
Holsby, secretary," is the ac-
tion of Mr. Holsby.
cepted plan of organization of many of the leading associations in America. It affords closer supervision and direction of the general association activities. It also relieves the national officers of a great local detail, thus permitting them to devote more time to making helpful contacts with other national, economic and business organizations." Other national officers are equally impressed with the feasibility of the plans. Steps are already being taken to perfect the active organization of the districts with a view to getting effective work done this year.

GENEVA. Sept. 13.—According to information in circles of the League of Nations, the dispute between Abyssinia, Great Britain and Italy over the attempts of the two European powers to obtain a zone of influence in the African Christian kingdom has been settled by private negotiations and will not be aired before the League Assembly. Abyssinia had protested to the League that Great Britain and Italy were applying undue pressure to obtain not only what amounted to a zone of influence, but also by Italy the right to build a railroad into Italian Somaliland and by Great Britain the building of a dam in Lake Tsana so that the waters of the Nile might be brought more regularly out of the Sudan.
The Abyssinian Government caught the ear of the world with this protest, as both Great Britain and Italy had to reply. Abyssina warned the League that it might force a discussion of the question of citizenship assembly, but as apparently has now been averted. The details of the settlement are not disclosed, but it is reported that Abyssina got a loan in return for granting the British and Italian concessions.
To Observe "Political Day," "Political Day," will be observed this Sunday afternoon by the Citizens' Forum, which meets in P. S. 136. The topic, "The Negro and the Ballot," will be discussed. H. Adolph Howell and Counsellor Miles A. Paige will speak.
DIES ON 107TH BIRTHDAY.

Colorful News Movies
and his publishers seem destined to make a fortune out of the sales of the much-sought-after volume depicting Negro life in Harlem. In the same manner in which "Three Weeks" outsold "Ramona" and a score of other volumes of genuine merit, his latest book seems destined to corral the present Negro sales market of literary "gems." The supply is unlimited and the demand is like a whirlwind. Dusty volumes of Dunbar, Du Bois and others, devoted to portrayals which the Negro needs to read, still go a-begging for buyers, but printers of the book are working overtime to keep up with the law of demand.
It is reported that the Harlem Branch of the New York Public Library has on file more than fifty requests for the new story of Little Africa; while Howard University Library, from which, a few years ago, was snatched a volume upon the general topics of ultra-socialistic principles, lest the students might be influenced by certain alleged colorful communistic theories, will probably secure an ample supply of the volume.
This column does not hold any intensely adverse brief to Mr. Van Vechten's book, written at the semi-social expense of good ethics as between the author and those who danced and dined him into the midst of their "heavenly" moments of relaxation. This column merely repeats what it averred a few weeks ago, that the recking and riotous cabaret and Charleston life of Harlem, or of any other location or group of American citizens, whether white, black, yellow, brown or red, is of little consequence when the substantial objectives of such a group or locality are sincerely considered for a moment. Social realism, religion and economic progress are the objectives which we should be grappitually pursuing these busy days—not what might have been had the barrier been placed around amalgamation processes, or what might be were America living in the millennium of the Golden Rule Period—which it is not.
Of course, Mr. Van Vechten is out for the money, and we cannot censure him severely for such a common fault, or virtue, as the case may be. We can, however, lament over the gullibility of our own group, which, as usual, is swallowing hook, line and sinker, baited with literary nothings.
The Cottonpickers
THE announcement has been broadcast from the Mississippi delta that there is a shortage of twenty thousand cottonpickers for the incoming season. The S.O.S call has been sounded and the announcement predicts that the cotton labor gap will be filled with Negroes and Mexicans. Just why there is a shortage in the delta district, where free labor once abounded, does not appear, but the fact remains that aprehension is abroad in Mississippi, lest precious King Cotton wastes some of his sweetness on the desert air. Let us look briefly at the economic anomaly which is beginning to make its presence felt, not only in Mississippi but elsewhere in the Southland, where Negro labor is now sitting up and taking notice.
Due to the inequities of the crop mortgage systems southern farmlands are being slowly but surely deserted by Negro farm tenants and operators. This indirect influence is pulling away from the agricultural fields efficient Negro laborers who, if they cannot reach the steel and automobile plants of the South, they have three seers out to Tennessee and Birmingham steel employers. The output of Mississippi cotton to the New England textile industries has been curtailed, but to the present slight textile depression in New England, and because of the growth of North Carolina's textile industries, which now absorb a larger share of the South's cotton. Wages, at low ebb in the South now, as ever, have been made to keep space with the new southwestern cotton, and the newly paid worker of all, the Negro is still being kept "in his place." in industry, agriculture, and otherwise.
With a full in New England's cotton, the Mississippi delta and other sections of the South face the greatest chance they have ever been endeavoring to learn the lesse make the cottonpickers' occupation pleasant and profitable. Alas, though, grasping at a straw, the delta has turned to the Mexican, who, good man though he may be, is unable to right to "unhorse" stanchion, loyal American workers, white or black. Southern steel has long since been endeavoring to learn the lesson of industrial justice to all, and it is encouraging to state that much

LATE COLONEL
CHAS. YOUNG
U. S. A.
Colonel Young was born in Kentucky on March 12, 1864. He was appointed to the United States Military Academy at West Point, N.Y., from Ohio, and was commissioned a second lieutenant in 1884. He won fame with the Ninth and Tenth U. S. Cavalry and served with the Ohio State Guard. He also held many other important military posts, both in the United States and Liberia. He was retired June 22, 1917, with the rank of colonel.

Miami in its grasp. When the storm subsided the counting of the dead and wounded and the estimating of the property loss and damage began. Then Miami turned to its Negro population, which for some unknown reason had few fatalities. MIAMI did not turn to the colored citizens in a brotherly spirit, nor did she base her appeal on mutual suffering and deprivation. No, she grasped the sword, declared martial law and began the conscription of Negro labor, to which class Miami has always felt all Negroes belong.
NECESSITY was used as an excuse for renewed oppression and the colored people naturally revolted against it. Riots followed, but were soon put down by marines and state guardsmen—armed murderers backed up by the law who, when called out to quell racial disturbances in the South, always protect whites and shoot Negroes.
PLACARDS have now been posted throughout the business and residential sections of white Miami. "This is not a time for laggards. Every able-bodied man must work or go to jail," it proclaims. Negroes, who in Miami and elsewhere, have always borne the burden in the heat of the day, did not need the warning. They stood ready to do their bit—which in the South is more than their share — but demand that their share be not confined to suffering and the dirty work of rebuilding the city. If black men are conscripted, white men should be conscripted. There's dirty work enough to go around and all of it need not be heaped upon the shoulders of black men.
THE HURRICANE will not bring Miami to her senses. Like many another city in the South, she will rehabilitate herself, probably on a firmer foundation, forget the present disaster, and set fire to another Negro school, church edifice or human being.
The Truth Hurts
TWO NEGRO EDITORS are soon to go a trial in Louisville, Kentucky, for con-empt of court, in that they referred to the hanging of two colored men as "legalenchings," pointed out that it was impossible for them to secure a fair trial in a certain Kentucky county and con-asted the fate of a white man who was declared insane after he had been charged with assault on a little colored girl

contrast to the dignified memorial stones which mark the graves of those about him. Visitors to this sacred spot often stand in wonder when they see no marker at the grave of this wonderful man, and it is necessary that the public know the reason why up to the present time there is no memorial stone.
It is not the fault of the government, for the government has given the same consideration to the grave of Colonel Young that it gives to the graves of all other officers. The government does not furnish ornamental memorial stones for the graves at Arlington. To the United States Army Charles Young was Colonel of Cavalry, but to the Negro race, of which

How long, oh Lord, how long will the decent law-abiding citizens of Virginia submit to the religion of mobbery and thuggery which is defying the laws, the courts and respectable public opinion? How long will the State which has been revered for its defiance to duly administered justice and to freedom of the individual from unlawful violence be forced to bow its head in shame because of lawless mobs which know no respect for law, hold no regard for public opinion and spit upon the courts of justice? The query becomes more pertinent daily. It becomes more pertinent daily because it is borne in upon the public conscience that in not one of the outrages upon Virginia society has appreciable progress been made in ferreting out and punishing the perpetrators, and because, too, the list of outrages themselves continues to grow.

She further stated that any surplus which might be collected over and above the cost of a modest stone be used for the establishment of a scholarship fund, the interest of which might be used to aid needy boys and girls in obtaining an education.
The fraternity is endeavoring to carry out every wish of Mrs. Young and is sponsoring the movement for the erection of the memorial. A contract for the erection of a stone to cost $2,300 has been signed with the J. H. Manning Co., Washington. D. C., and the monument will be ready in October. The foundation for the stone has already been laid.

he was a splendid representative, he epitomized those qualities that are priceless to a struggling race. He was a prince of men. He was a public character, big hearted, sympathetic, fearless, tactful, active, intellectual, strong.
Some time after his burial at Arlington, the Omega Psi Phi Fraternity, of which he was a member, communicated with Mrs. Young, his widow, and asked permission to place a stone over his grave. Mrs. Young replied that she felt a memorial raised by the public would be a splendid tribute. She further said that under no circumstances would she desire any one organization to erect the stone, but that it should be erected by subscription from the many

of the crime committed against the person of a Catholic priest in Princess Anne County, and while it may not stir the public indignation as did the whipping of two young women at Bristol, the flogging of four men in Norfolk by a hooded band is equally defiant of law and order, and equally demands strictest investigation and sternest punishment for each and every member of that lawless mob. This latest bit of terrorism was committed in Norfolk on the morning of August 30, twenty-four hours before Rev. Vincent D. Warren was seized by his masked assaults, but it has just been reported to the authorities by the frightened and suffering victims. Four men were seized by the mob of seventy armed and hooded men, and three of them are said to have been subjected to treatment almost incredible in a State which professes to be civilized. But the victims have the physical marks to prove their charges of cruel treatment and consequent suffering, and preliminary investigation of the authorities leads them to credit the almost unbelievable tale. The fourth man, it is reported by the three victims of the unlawful lash, was released when he produced a card purporting to identify him with the membership of a hooded fraternal organization.
Here, then, are four crimes, all committed in Virginia within a month, each one of which has defied the tenets of decent society, flouted the courts and contemptuously kicked the law aside. Each of them has been followed by deep indignation and widespread protests on the part of the State at large, and other States have signified through their press that they were watching Virginia with confidence that it would justify its olden traditions of reverence for order and justice and seek out and punish the criminals who have shamed it. And yet in each of the immediate localities where a mob crime was perpetrated there has been a measure of apathy that is inexplicable. Perhaps the local authorities are moving with all the dispatch and vigor possible.

THE International Cancer Congress closed its session on last Friday. No new cure, no startling discovery, no
new methods have been announced by this eminent scientific body of men. The cause of cancer is still unknown. It has not been proved that it is due to a germ; it is, however, not a hereditary disease. The only conclusive statement made by the congress is that for cancer to be cured it must be discovered early and treated radically with a knife or by radium.
Cancer is still prevalent, and many deaths are occurring every year from this baffling disease; yet many cures are also occurring when an early treatment is instituted.
The early discovery of the disease is nine-tenths of the battle to get well. The public should know the early signs of a possible cancerous growth.

Ask your physician about them.
If any suspicious symptoms present themselves, go immediately to your physician or a good hospital for an examination.
A generation ago Negroes did not develop cancer in the large numbers they do today. Modern civilization, with the devitalizing stress, seems to contribute to the secret something that affects the cells of the body, disturbs their normal activity, and stimulates the cells to a massive overgrowth.

Love and Friendship
LOVE is like a usurer,
Miserly in spending:
Writing in his register
Each item of his lending.
Evry penny spent must earn
Ample interest,
For without a fair return,
Love will not invest.
Friendship never, never lends,
Seeks no selfish gains:
Freely, lavishly, he spends,
But asking for his pains
No return or recompense.
From his ample store,
Gives he of his affluence
More and more and more.
Love is like a slaver bold,
Forcing full allegiance;
Who would come into his hold
Must bow in strict obedience.
He sits on a haughty throne
Posing as divine,
Making all his slaves lie prone,
And worship at his shrine.
Friendship is a champion
Guardian and defender.
Spurning pedestal and throne
For offices more tender.
Under Love's high tyranny
Who desire may bend—
I would not your lover be:
I would be your friend.
—James William Henderson.

It is, therefore, necessary that the Negro as a group look with keen observation upon the early symptoms of this prevalent disease. Any immunity that we had is now lost. We are as one with the white race in being vulnerable to this disease. Next week I shall tell you what the early symptoms are.
