ROOF KILLING REVEALED
U. N. I. A. OFFICIALS FREED
The Waning U. N. I. A.
CANCEROUS discord is ceating out the vital forces of the Universal Negro Improvement Society. The Garveyites and the anti-Garveyites are at each others' throats in a feud which probably will end in the death of the parent organization. In spite of the humorously pathetic back-to-Africa project which leaders of the U. N. I. A. so zealously fostered, the association possessed a few outstanding virtues, chief among which was the fact that so large a body could organize itself, function, and prosper for so long a time with a definite objective in mind. This in itself was an achievement which the Negro in America had never before enjoyed outside of the field of religion.
Jealousies and self-aggrandizement, however, are now having their day in the U. N. I. A. Its definite purposes are being laid upon the table, while its leaders are engaging in personal charges, countercharges, and incarcerations. The masses, who gave of their money and energy to stabilize organization among Negroes, are being forgotten, while its leadership struggles with itself in fury End in self-destruction. Distintegration has set in upon what was once a great organization.
It would be both graceful and self-saving if the masses who comprise the U. N. I. A. could be kept intact to face, not an emigration to the dark continent, but an approach to the problems which beset the Negro in America. If the names of organization of the Negro could be kept alive, so that in an orderly, scientific way he could put firmness and initiative into the plan which should be pursued here to bring about his complete emancipation, what consolation would be enjoyed by the black pathfinders of America.
Cannot something be done to preserve the U. N. I. A., give it a while leadership of integrity, a new plan of action, and save it as the model, in form at least, from which new units of racial solidarity may be created and dedicated to the service of the strugging race?

Weston and Holder Exonerated by Magistrate Douras in Washington Heights Court
Marcus Garvey and his lieutenants suffered a heavy setback Thursday when George A. Weston, president of the anti-Garvey faction of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, and Wesley MacD. Holder, secretary, were exonerated by Magistrate Bernard J. Douras, sitting in the Washington Heights Court, on a charge of burglarizing the office building now occupied by the Garvey faction.
Followers of both factions, male and female, crowded into the court room and listened with a great deal of attentiveness. Silence among the spectators would be occasionally broken when apparent enemies of Garvey giggled either at question that was put by one of the attorneys or at the answer to a question by the complaining witness. A few of the women were robed in their Black Cross nurse, uniforms. The hearing lasted for two hours. Neither Weston nor Holder was put on the witness stand. Attorney Lennie George, who appeared as commissor for Holder, was re-enforced by two other lawyers. The Garveyites were represented by Attorney Lawrence Brown.
As the victorious officers of the association left the bar they were affectionately mobbed by their loyal members.
Disappointed, on the other hand, in their failure to execute the orders of their imprisoned chief, Urlah Gittens, acting as Garvey's secretary, who was the complainant, dashed from the room.
With the aid of a night watchman in the Universal Negro Improvement Association a final attempt was made to prove that Weston and Holder had entered the building of the association at 56 W. 125th street through a rear window on the second floor by climbing the fire escape.
Books, papers and money were alleged to have been removed from the building by the men after they had opened the door for about twenty persons to enter and ransack the place.
Although Holder and Weston had corroborating witnesses, they were not put on the stand.
The charge against the opponents of Garvey is regarded by some who are well acquainted with the present mechanism of the whole organization as a last minute play to stay off the injunction proceedings instituted by the Weston group restraining other groups from using the name of the Universal Negro Improvement Association. From all indications Garvey has made his last stand.
Several libel suits and actions for false arrest are expected to be filed this week by Attorneys for Weston and Holder.

Richard Moore Found Guilty
Sentence Suspended Made Speech in Front of Lafayette
Magistrate Henry Goodman, sitting in the Washington Heights Court yesterday afternoon, found Richard B. Moore guilty of obstructing traffic. He was given a suspended sentence.
Action to appeal the decision of the court will be instituted at once.
Attorney Ruth Whitehead Whaley, with offices at 206 Broadway, represented Moore, who was specifically charged with disorderly conduct on the ground that he violated an injunction issued by Supreme Court Judge Valpine Tuesday morning in the Washington Heights Court before Magistrate Henry Goodman.
At the end of the testimony of the complaining witnesses Attorney Whaley made the motion to dismiss the disorderly conduct charge against her client. The court listened for several minutes to a rebuttal and then reserved its decision. Moore was then put on the stand.
The first witness to take the stand was the arresting officer, Patrolman Blank of the West 135th street station. He testified that he observed a large crowd, numbering about 150 persons, around a little speaking stand at 135th street and Seventh avenue. The officer said that he noticed a fifteen police car drive up to the car and order the speaker away. At this time he was one block away.
Bernard Burt, manager of the Lafayette, the complaining witness, was the next to take the stand. He declared that he heard Mr. Moore refer to this theatre as being the only one out of the local theatres that did not employ Negro motion picture operators. The theatre manager further charged that the speaker attempted to incite the crowd to storm the Lafayette Theatre. Upon the grillings cross-examination by Attorney Whaley he admitted that he caused the arrest of Mr. Moore because he thought that the injunction was being violated.
Boy Skater's Leg Crushed by Trolley
While roller skating on the asphalt pavement near the foot of 145th street bridge on Lenox avenue, Frank Miller, 13, 2441 Seventh avenue, was run down by a trolley car Saturday.
A rear wheel passed over the boy's left leg crushing it so badly that Dr. Blaha of Harlem Hospital was forced to amputate the leg below the knee.
Policeman Lacey, of West 135th street station, with the aid of Motorman Raymond Griffin and Conductor Clyde Davis, jacked up the street car and extricated the boy, who had fainted from pain.
Lacey applied a tourniquet to the crushed foot and stopped the flow of blood until the ambulance arrived.
Griffin, who was driving the street car, said he did not know the car had run over the boy until bystanders shouted to him.

Harmless Air Pistol Proves Thorn in Side of Patrolman Burke
Arrests, Releases and Rearrests Man Who Exhibited It in "Alleged Speak-easy" Did Not Know Possession Was Violation
The stumbling of Charles Reason, also known as "Lawrence." 36. 2150 Fifth avenue, into an alleged "speak-easy" at 2200 Seventh avenue while he was under the influence of liquor, and exhibiting an air pistol which looked like a real automatic revolver, has proven a thorn in the side of Otto Burke, a police officer attached to the West 135th street station.
WINEGLASS, COUSIN OF ACTOR, DIES FROM EFFECTS OF BULLET
Police Searching for Henry Luckes, Who Is Accused of Shooting Staged in Seventh Avenue Pool Parlor
Russell Wineglass, 35, cousin of the actor, Dewey Wineglass, was shot during an altercation early Saturday morning in a poolroom at 2369 Seventh avenue, and died an hour later on the operating table at Harlem Hospital. According to the police, the assailant is alleged to be Henry Luckes, 136 West 142d street. He is still at large. From information that was given the police, the men had been discussing each of their rights to have the companionship of a woman when the talk suddenly took a violent turn. It was shortly after 1 A.M. that a report was received at the West 135th street station that a man had been shot at the Seventh avenue poolroom. A squad of reserves, with Detective Winterhalter, went to the scene. Wineglass was rushed to the hospital, where he died soon afterwards from loss of blood.

When Reason was arraigned in the Washington Heights Court Monday morning, Magistrate Henry Goodman declared that it was the most unusual case that had ever been brought before him. The complaining witness, Joe Casino, white, owner of the Seventh avenue premises, who endeavored to withdraw his complaint of attempted robbery against Reason, was held in the custody of the police as a material witness for the State.
Reason, who had been out on ball since last week, was held without ball to await the action of the Grand Jury. Commissioner of Police McLaughlin was informed of the action of the patrolman and asked that the case be investigated.
Fred R. Moore, publisher, 228 W. 123rd street, testified in behalf of the defendant and revealed the attempt of a policeman to assault the prisoner while he was being taken to the police station. Reason was represented by Attorney Richard L. Cunningham. During the
Confesses Fifty Apartment Thefts
Even Suspect's Revolver Was Stolen, Police
After being trailed by a rookie Monday night, it is alleged that a gunman, William Springer, twenty-three, 268 West 153rd street, confessed he had robbed at least fifty apartments in the University Heights, Washington Heights and Morningside Heights sections in the last year.
Springer's revolver, police said, was stolen from Detective George Parr of the Fifth avenue station, Brooklyn. The bundles, detectives declared, contained clothing and jewelry the robber said he took early Monday night from an apartment "somewhere in University avenue." He could not remember the address.
Detectives Donohue and Cronin went to Springer's home and said they found it contained tapestries, rugs, radio sets, silverware, clothing and jewelry, all believed to have been stolen.
Police added Springer told them he worked the "motion picture game," entering first floor apartments between S and 10 P. M., when the occupants were likely to be attending motion picture theatres.

REASON STAGGERED
Around 7:30 p. m. last Thursday, Reason said that he staggered into the Seventh avenue place. A man on guard at the door, whose official duty it is to pull a long chain to release a bar across the door when the person is a regular customer of the place, or who does not look suspicious, admitted Reason when he tapped on the window.
The guard and Reason have been friends for over 15 years, the defendant said. Reason declared that he had a wrapped package in his arm, and the guard asked him what it was. He threw the package upon the bar and instructed him to look and see. Reason testified.
As the door guard was inspecting the contents of the package Patrolman Burke, who was in plain
WHITE GIRL REFUSES TO TESTIFY AGAINST HER LOVER
Defying her father, Bertha Soffer, white, 19, who had been living in a rented room with John Rankin, 21, 220 West 134th street, refused to give him up as her lover and intended husband and bitterly denounced the idea of testifying against him. When the couple was arraigned in the Heights Court, Monday, a lawyer employed by the girl's father asked that ball be set for her. It was granted. Although Rankin is held as a fugitive from justice, extradition papers have not been granted. Rankin and the white girl attended the same school at Duquesne, Pa., and there they became interested in one another. Some time ago the Soffer girl came here to visit relatives, and soon after her arrival here Rankin followed.
Since that time they have made several attempts to marry and have been blocked each time. Upon evidence received several weeks ago Detectives Bauerschmidt and Crosby of the West 135th street station went to the West 134th street address and found the couple living as man and wife.
Efforts were made to have the girl to take the stand against her lover, but she refused. She is expected to be a mother soon. The case was adjourned until tomorrow when it is expected that some disposition will be made of it.
Laborer Arrested After Woman Yells
Asbury Pety, 32 laborer, 47 W. 133d street, was held in $1,000 bail to await the action of the Grand Jury when he was arraigned in the Heights Court Monday on a charge of having a razor in his possession. According to Patrolman William Robinson. Sunday night, while he was in the vicinity of St. Nicholas Park, he heard a woman scream. As he rushed to the scene where he heard the cry, he said that he saw two men run away from her. Patrolman Robinson gave chase and overtook Pety, he said. The second man escaped. When he brought the prisoner back to the place where the woman was standing she had disappeared. He then searched the prisoner and found a razor in his inside pocket, he said.

He strangled Adele Brunjes, with whom he was in love, to death last July in their apartment. Lack of any proof of premeditation led to the acceptance of the plea.

PROBABLE THAT WHITE MAN WAS LURED TO HIS DEATH
Body Found Saturday Morning on Roof of 138th St. Apartment House Identified by Stepfather
From all information gathered by the police, the theory that the body of Frederick W. Earle, white, 27, Higgannum, Conn., which was found on the roof of the apartment building at No. 1111 West 138th street Saturday, was just another case of a white man on a slumming tour in Harlem being lured to his death by a woman and her accomplices, is the most reliable one.
Identification was made by Howard I. Spencer, the man's stepfather, who came to New York from Higgannum, which is south of Middletown, directly after the first information reached the family from the police that a man answering Earle's description had been found dead.
After identifying the body, Spencer immediately began a search for Earle's younger brother, Irving Earle, 20 who left by boat on Friday night for New York, and was due to arrive here Thursday morning. Both young men came here to attend the world's series.
Earle, who was murdered, left his home late Friday afternoon in his Ford automobile and drove alone to New York.
His body was found about 6:30 o'clock by Joseph Forman, white, 12 West 116th street, driver of a milk wagon, who had made deliveries in the house and was crossing the roof to an adjoining building. An ambulance surgeon summoned from Harlem Hospital said the man probably had been dead five hours.
Mrs. Lillian Islall, who lives on the top floor, told detectives she had heard footsteps on the roof about 1:30 o'clock in the morning, followed by the sound of a scuffle ten minutes later. The sound ceased, she said, and she did not investigate.
A soft hat, evidently worn by the victim, bore the name "Burtons, 388 Main Street, Hartford, Conn." His empty wallet had the initials "F. W. E." on the outside. There was also found an insurance policy issued to Frederick W. Earle by the Tully Wiley Insurance Company, 769 Main street, Hartford, on Aug. 31, covering automobile liability in the amount of $10,000. No arrests have been made as yet.
"Gets Religion" and Pleads Guilty
(Freston News Service.)
DETROIT. Mich. Oct. 4—Saying he had "got religion" in the county jail, Edward Munson, 21 years old, Wednesday pleaded guilty to robbery and was sentenced to serve from two and one-half to fifteen years in Jackson Prison.
Munson told the court his newly acquired religion made him enter a guilty plea and that he hoped to make amends in prison for his past misdeeds. He served part of a one to 15-year sentence in Jackson Prison two years ago.
Pietro Babba, a street merchant, was held up by Munson, who stole women's lingerie valued at $200 from him.

DR. JOHNSON'S ADDRESS.
The new president of the university made his initial appearance as an officer of the school before a Howard University assembly and spoke, in part, as follows:
"Fellow students: Today begins the fifty-ninth year of instruction in Howard University. On behalf of the board of trustees, the faculty and administrative staff of the university I have come to welcome you into the university community, some of you for the continuation of your studies and others of you for the first time.
"The Howard University community was established in 1867 by a man who had been a soldier and who was not content to see the four millions of American Negroes physically free from bondage. He desired to see them intellectually and spiritually emancipated.
"During the fifty-eight years of its existence the Howard community has kept in unanswering view the desires and ideals of this noble man. Little by little our community has grown in students, in faculty, in equipment, in friends, in standards and in power. Today we have over 6.708 graduates at work in all States of the Union, in foreign countries, and in all departments of life; a faculty of some eight-score of professors, assistants and instructors, a student body of more than 2,000 young

"We greet you as our younger comrades in a great enterprise. In acquaintance with fundamental processes of thinking and with specific fields of inquiry we have preceded you, and we wait to*serve you as you walk along your way, confirming your choice of the best and warning you as well as we can concerning the dangers to be avoided.

RELEASED BY OFFICER.
The officer took his prisoner from Seventh avenue and 130th street to Eighth avenue. When he had reached 132d street. Reason declared, the officer put him into a taxicab and told him to go home because he was too drunk to know what he was doing.
Still believing that Burke was not a policeman. Reason said that he instructed the taxi driver to go to the West 132th Street Station.
A short distance from the station the defendant saw Mr. Moore. He then told his story to the publisher. Realizing that he was intoxicated, Mr. Moore, the prisoner testified, instructed him to go home and come to his office the following day.
OFFICER TRAILS HIM.
Only a few minutes after Reason had talked to the publisher, the policeman came up to him and asked in which direction the man had gone. The officer was told. Reason was overtaken by a police reserve officer who informed him that Officer Burke was at the station. At the station there was a debate as to whether or not the air pistol was a violation of the Sullivan law. Reason said. Upon the decision that it was a dangerous weapon he was arrested and the charge of attempted robbery was later lodged against him.

REASON FORMERLY A SECRET SERVICE MAN.
Reason was formerly connected with the United States Department of Justice. Prior to the World War he was convicted of a charge of petty larceny. He is married and lives with his wife at the Fifth avenue address.
Burke has been on the force for only a year. He said that he had been in the Seventh avenue place for about 10 minutes before Reason entered. He said that he saw the defendant point the instrument at the door guard and remark, "Don't dart!"
He said that he released the prisoner on because he thought that as much as the fake pistol looked like a dangerous weapon, its possession was not a violation of the Sullivan law. After he released the prisoner, he found out that it was a violation and then rearrested him, he said.
In order to relieve the officer from further embarrassment the court would not allow Attorney Cunningham to comment on his action. Magistrate Goodman said
that he would see to it that the irregularities of the officer were brought to the attention of the Police Commissioner.
In making an appeal for the dismissal of the charges against his client, the defendant's counsel pointed out that two magistrates had decided that an air pistol was not a violation of the law. No higher court has ever made a decision.
In announcing his decision Magistrate Goodman said:
"In all my years in the district attorney's office and during my service as a member of the bench I have never heard of a case just like this. I have never heard of a police officer acting in the place of a Grand Jury on the sidewalk."

Perhaps you were never trapped in a burning house, perhaps you've never been singed by fire—but the fact remains that fire is one of your greatest enemies. 'Be careful with everything and anything that could cause a fire. Help do away with fire!—T. E. B.

Household Lore
Match marks on a polished or varnished surface may be removed by first rubbing them with a cut lemon and then with a cloth dipped in water.
To bleach white goods that have become yellow, dip them in strong blue water after washing, let them become very blue, and then hang out to dry. They will be thoroughly bleached.
Gilt braid that has become tarnished may be renewed by rubbing a little alum into it. Leave for a few hours and it will look like new.
In papering a room, you should remember that large patterns and dark colors will make it appear smaller. A plain or striped paper, if a light hue, will give an impression of increased size.
When purchasing materials for unholstering purposes always choose a close weave and look for the absence of long, loose threads on the surface.
To remove red ink stains from table linen, spread freshly made mustard over the stain and leave for half an hour; then sponge off and all traces of the ink will have disappeared.
The Cook Says:---
The cook who is wise in her day and generation sees to it that the dishes she prepares are attractive in appearance and interesting in flavor.
Give variety to muffins and biscuits by adding raisins, dates or cocoanut.
To beat eggs quickly, add a pinch of cream of tartar before starting to beat them. The desired frothy condition will be acquired more quickly and retained longer.
To color soup green, pound spinach leaves in a mortar, extract the juice and add to the soup.
Let potatoes stand fifteen minutes in hot water before baking and it will take half the usual time.
A plate of cool, inviting salad saves the day when all other plans go awry, or you feel the need for a free afternoon.
Ready-to-serve soups usually need to be diluted with water or stock. You can also taste of your family by adding seasoning, if you think it necessary.

Beauty Secrets
By
Mme.
Sara
Washington
Popular among last season's summer students at Columbia University was a charming young society girl, who resides with her mother in Pittsburgh. Her name is Helen. Her father is a prominent New York physician and she has spent the summers here since her parents separated seven years ago.
The Smoky City miss possessed many charms and was much sought after. Numerous social affairs were given in her honor, and the past season was "just the berries" for Helen.
Helen's attention to her studies began to wane during the last two weeks, but first and became centred on Phil, a dark-eyed youth whose Valentini-like features are quired for him the nickname "Sheik."
"Shoik" had known "Babe" (as Helen was affectionately called), for the past three years. But "Babe's" increasing popularity caused Phil to be more attentive to her than before. He was really getting serious and told "Babe" so. Of course, Phil had another girl of whom he was quite fond. He had not entertained visions of marriancy with the latter, but she was a good pal, and he felt quite contented in her company. While with "Babe" he really thought that he loved her. There was so much unlovable attractions. She was his exact type. She possessed every desirable charm but one—and that was—broad shoulders. Hers were extremely round.
This was a pity as "Babe" was only 19. She was tall and otherwise beautifully formed, but even these attractions, and her powerful winning personality, could not offset this defect in her posture. It does not seem reasonable that a parent would permit a child, who was otherwise so perfect, to arrive at such a stage when it could have been easily corrected.
Round shoulders are the result of bad carriage. The way a person stands or walks has bearing upon health, upon efficiency, upon personal appearance. It is clear

Babe's Carriage
enough that a stooping posture must decrease the efficiency of the heart and lungs and injure the work of the liver.
But, according to physicians, the bad effects do not stop there. When the abdomen is habitually released and allowed to sag forward—as usually happens when people stand badly—all the important organs inside slip downward a little. They lie lower than they should, and often the lower border of the stomach drops two or three inches. This, perhaps, is due to the stretching of the nerves and blood vessels, but in all events the tone of the whole system is sure to be lowered; the organs grow fubby and do their work sluggishly.
So give yourself the "once-over." Stand up straight—walk correctly and breathe deeply. Be graceful in your carriage, as it has a powerful attraction. Good carriage is directly connected with a person's feeling and self-respect. If you stouch around with your eyes on the ground and your abdomen sagging, you are not in a position to have the strong and healthy feelings of self-respect that the person has who stands erect. If, while walking along the street, you wake up to the fact you are carrying yourself poorly, take the attitude of standing straight—the physical attitude will follow. Hold your head well back, shoulders square, look people squarely in the face. This will not only give the impression to others that you possess the power you want, but it will actually tend to bring power to you.

"I have found Black-Draught to be the finest kind of a remedy for this. I take Black-Draught and make a tea out of it, and take it, along in small doses for several days. I have never found anything that served me so well.
"Since I have known about Black-Draught, I have not suffered nearly so much with headache, caused from indigestion. If I find my tongue is coated, and I wake up with a bad taste in my mouth, I know I have been eating indiscretely, and I immediately resort to Black-Draught to straighten me out." old everywhere. 25 cents.

Shaw University Doing Only College Work
RALEIGH, N. C.—Snow University began its first year as an institution devoted wholly to collegiate and theological work, when it opened this year.
With the graduation of the class of last year, the academy ceased and the freshman class became the lowest class in the regular literary work.
The faculty has been augmented by several new members. The Rev Lewis K. McMillan, B. D., Yale, comes to the theological department as professor of Old Testament, and church history.
In the college, Miss Agnes Koehler, A. B., Elmira College, is associate professor of French, and Ben Langston Taylor, A. B., Virginia Union, with further study at Cornell, is associate professor of physics. Foster P. Payne, A. B. Morehouse, with further study at Columbia, is instructor in English, and two of Shaw's graduating class of last year have been called back as instructors. Miss A. Ruth Gadson in French, and Edward McClaren in chemistry.
At the joint meeting of the Y. M. C. A, and the Y. W. C. A., Prof. Benjamin Brawley spoke on "The Abiding Satisfaction of Life."

Sufferers From Indigestion or Stomach Trouble CUT THIS OUT
"Stomach trouble, dyspepsia, indigestion, sourness, gas, thorium, food poisoning, ear, caused nine times out of ten by chronic acid stomach, says a well-known authority.
Burning hydrochloric acid develops in the stomach lining and inflames and inflames the delicate stomach lining and often leads to gastritis accompanying dangerous attacks. Don't do the stomach with pepsin or articular digestants that only give temporary relief from pain by giving the stomach of the stomach into the intergument.
Instead, neutralize or sweeten your acid stomach after meals, hot water or milk. Magnesium and meals will the pain vanish but your nothing better than Blursure. There is nesa to mask it.

Two White Detectives Charged With Attempt to Extort $300 From Doctor
Dr. Richard Birnie, of Brooklyn, Passes Marked Bills as Police Inspector Looks on and Arrests
Two detectives attached to the Butler Street Station in Brooklyn were arrested Friday on a charge of extortion by Inspector Lewis J. Valentine and two sergeants from Commissioner George V. McLaughlin's confidential staff. They are Jeremiah Campbell, 451 Fittentton street, Brooklyn, and Reginald Stlaymaker, 30 Huntington street, Brooklyn. Both are white.
The two detectives are specifically charged with having made an appointment at Atlantic avenue and Court street with Dr. Richard Birnie, 646 Herkimer street, Brooklyn, to receive $300 to drop an investigation into the death of Mrs. Alice Grandson, who died after an operation. Adelaide Foster, a midwife, arrested in the case, was discharged in Homicide Court Friday for lack of evidence.

Dr. Birnie had been to Police Headquarters with his story and was instructed to pass $300 in marked bills. Dr. Birnie, police asserted, had been cleared of any connection with Mrs. Granderson's death before the detectives approached him. Records show the physician attended her before and after the operation was performed. The physician, police said, agreed to give the detectives the money at Court street and Atlantic avenue at 3 P. M. Friday. In an interview with a reporter for The Amsterdam News Dr. Birnie said: "As directed by the police I drove to the corner of Atlantic avenue and Court street and the detectives were awaiting me. Detective Campbell was walking up and down the street and Detective Skaymaker was at the wheel of the Ford sedan.
"Campbell approached the window of my car and spoke with me for about five minutes. He said, 'Be careful, I think I am watched. Have you the money? I said, yes, and passed him the illiterate vector Valentine and by me to him. There were three $100 bills.
---
"He said: 'Don't tell Slaymaker how much you gave me.' "He then walked back to his rut. I got out of my car on to the sidewalk and gave the prearranged signal—the raising of my bot from my head. As soon as camphrel headed his car Inspector valentine and his Nissan was delivered in on them, found the money in his pockets and arrested both men." Dr. Brietle is a graduate of Harvard University and has practised in Brooklyn several years.
Gne Foot Warm; Given Time to Warm Both
"Why one shoe?" asked County Judge Taylor of James Ferdinand. Friday morning, Oct. 1. in the county court.
"I was playing cards, your Honor." answered Ferdinand, "and my foot got warm."
Ferdinand was charged with having stabbed Samuel Stanley, 82 living places. The trouble are over because of his intentions to the wife of Stanley, it is alleged, and an estrangement of the Stanley resulted.
Assistant District Attorney Heily brought out the fact that when Ferdinand was arrested he was found with one shoe on.
In holding Ferdinand for sentence Judge Taylor said: "Well, I will give you time to cool off both sides. Sing, sing, and after that you will back to the British West Indies and the wife and children you deserted there to come here and break up another home."

Californian at Marcy Church Attacked Racial Barriers During Time Limit Allotted by Pastor
Miss Sidney J. Davis, a missionary and founder-superintendent of the tourist Mission in Los Angeles, Cal., created quite a stir at the usually peaceful and harmonious Sunday services in the Marcy Avenue Baptist Church (white) on Sept. 26, when she attacked the racial barriers of white church rules.
Miss Davis, who came to Brooklyn last June as a delegate to the Baptist Young People's Union Congress, was presented to the congregation by the Rev. John M. Moore, pastor of the church, with the idea that she would just describe her work and step. Miss Davis was given five minutes in which to give an outline of her activities. She did this and then she deplored the time limitation which had been placed upon her to deliver an important message.
The young lady then launched her attack on the "rules, laws and budgets" of the white Baptist denomination, which to her mind tend to act as barriers between members of congregations who were inclined to contribute to such causes as she and other colored men and women were interested in and made financial appeals for. She also helped the old Roman Catholics are extending in a financial way for work among colored people.
This line of talk, judging from the actions of the congregation, was not what they wanted, and Dr. Moore, at the end of ten minutes of this caustic criticism, quietly resumed his place in the pulpit and gently reminded the invited guest that the five minutes that had been allotted her had expired. Miss Davis in a polite manner concluded that talk was before she requested permission to receive funds at the door when the services had ended.
Dr. Moorole readily consented to her request, but stated that while the members of the Marcy Avenue Baptist Church had evidently been deeply moved by the first portion of Miss Davis' talk, they deplored the critical tenor of her remarks. He told Miss Davis that in churches of this day and time budgets, rules and regulations were necessary and important parts. She made no comment, but left the pulpit with an expression which seemed to ask, "What would Jesus do if He had to deal with so many rules and so forth if He came into the world to day."

Crawls to Safety
He fell to the tracks as the train brushed by and stunned, lay across the rails till roused by the force of the next train. Then he rolled between the tracks, just as the steel wheels clucked past his face. The thunder of the wheels and the screech of the brakes drowned the man's feeble cries. The darkness of the tunnel at the end of the station prevented the motorman from seeing the bellboy.
When the train had rolled down under the river, Thompson, dragging his mangled and bleeding foot, inched his way on hands and knees back across the track and into the comparative safety under the end of the station platform.
"No One Heard But God."
The man hundred boards trains just wove his head, he spent the next two hours, stationally crawling onto the tracks between trains in a vain effort to attract aid.
Prayers were mingled with faint cries for help. None heard "except God," as Thompson later declared.
"I never prayed so hard in my life," the bellboy told an ambulance surgeon. "God heard me and saved me."
After two hours, hope nearly gone. Thompson realized he was losing consciousness. He almost gave up hope of being rescued alive.
Then George Zupack, a motorman of a Broadway train, heard faint cries. He left his cab to investigate and unable to trace the muffled calls, notified the station agent. Patrolman John Stiglar, who was summoned, jumped to the tracks and investigated.
Thompson, weakened from the loss of blood and nearly no blood from beneath the platform. He was taken to the Cumberland Street Hospital, where it was found necessary to amputate his foot. Later he recovered sufficiently to say that his prayers were answered after he had given up all home.
"Officer," he said to Patrolman Stigland at the hospital. "I never prayed so hard in my life. If I knew that I was to suffer so long I would have ended it all beneath the wheels of a train. But the thought that my prayers and cries would be heard at any moment gave me encouragement."
At the hospital it was said Thompson has a chance to recover,

NEW YORK AMSTERDAM NEWS, WEDNESDAY, OCT. 6, 1926
and women of the white race have visited Harlem in the spirit of the missionary. In this movement recognised leaders of the business man in New York have invited a recognised, successful business man of Harlem to come downtown, sit on their board as one of them, without spirit of segregation, and to work with them for the common good of New York. I want to bring to your attention that this is the first time that a colored man has been elected to the board of such a permanent organization.
"Mr. Nall is a leading real estate agent in Harlem, Today, in nominating Mr. Nall, the colored man is recognized as a business man of equal standing with the white business man of New York. It is a pleasure to see him take his place with such business men as Herbert N. Straus, Lawrence Elliman, Francis L. Whitmarsh and Frank D. Waterman. When I see men like these, successful men in the business world, recognizing the business ability of the colored man, working with him to help the party in the state and in the nation, it is indeed a right step forward for the building up of a splendid organization."
Mr. Nall is chairman of the Finance Committee of the Young Men's Christian Association. Harlem Branch, chairman of the New York Urban League, and a member of the Board of Directors of the National Association for Advancement of the Colored People. For five years Mr. Nall was president of the Association of Trade and Commerce of Harlem, and for twenty years has been a member of the firm of Nall & Parker.

Ward of Abyssinian Prince Enters Ohio State University
Is in Sophomore Class in Colleges of Commerce and Journalism Has Been in United States Four and One-Half Years Has Mastered English Language
COLUMBUS, Ohio, Oct. 4. One of three wards of the reigning prince of Abyssinia, attending American universities at his expense, became an Ohio State student at the opening of the fall quarter. His name is Bashahwarad Nabetwold and his home is in Addis-Aboba, Abyssinia, where his mother, two brothers and one sister are living.
Nabtowold is 30 years old and has been in the United States four and one-half years, which have been spent almost continuously in classrooms at Muskingum College, New Concord.
He is the protege of Prince Ras Tuffari, who, six years ago, took three Abyssinian youths and placed them in schools in Bombay, India, where they were taught the rudiments of the English language and American customs.
The trio, who are Bashahwarad, Malaku Beyan and Worku Gobena, then came to Muskingum College, where they were given private tuition until they became sufficiently versed in the English language to enter the regular classrooms.
Nabtewold came to Ohio State this fall as a sophomore in the College of Commerce and Journalism. Malaku is attending the University of Pennsylvania, where he is studying medicine. Worku is continuing an arts course at Muskegum. Careful in his diction and easily understood, he said he and his companions hoped to remain in the United States for three more years before returning to their native country. He plans to become a teacher or have employment in a Government office when he returns home.
Likes Staten.
He found it very difficult to master the English language, but declared his native tongue is more difficult for a foreigner to learn. Due to the fact that his language is so difficult, French is the most universal language, he said.
American customs and dress, radically different from those of his native country, are not to be found fault with, in his opinion. American food was difficult to become accustomed to, he said. But he likes the United States and the hospitality of its people, and announced the intention of returning some day after he has completed his studies and returned to his country.
BATES NAMES RAY,
GRID STAR, CAPTAIN
LEWISTON. Me., Oct. 4. — Chas. D. Ray, backfield star, holds the distinction of being the first of his race ever elected captain of the football team of Bates College. Football has been played at Bates since the latter part of the nineteenth century and during that time Negro boys frequently have made the varsity, but Charlie Ray, "triple threat" of the Bates team this year, yesterday qualified as the first to lead the team. He was chosen unanimously when Donald Cobb of Gardiner, elected last season, failed to return to college. Ray, now a senior, came to Bates from West Chester, Pa., and gained a place on the varsity squad in his freshman year.
"The Negro and the Ballot" was the subject discussed by Attorney Myles A. Paige, regular Republican candidate for the State Senate from the 19th Senatorial District, at the John P. Price Lyceum, of Mother Zion Baptist Church, Sunday afternoon. Attorney Paige is the first Negro to ever be a regular candidate for the State Senate in New York.

Dr. Hubert Harrison Opens Lecture Series
Dr. Hubert H. Harrison, staff lecturer of the Board of Education, opened a new fall and winter series of lectures at 200 West 135th street, Saturday night. This series will be given under the auspices of the Citizens' Educational Committee, composed of Dr. E. Elliott Rawlings, Dr. Melville Charton, Arthur A. Schoomburg, William H. Davis, William Pickens and Romeo L. Dougherty. Every month in rotation there will be a lecture on each of the following topics: "The Trend of the Times," "Literary Lights of Yesterday and Today," "Popular Science," "Race Problems and History."
The opening lecture was devoted to "Civilization's Black Beginnings" and was a presentation in popular form of the results of historical research and scientific exploration by Egyptologists and others
This Saturday night Dr. Harrison's lecture will be "A Reply to Nigger Heaven" which is described in advance as "a sizzling summary of the blase neurotics who make Harlem their happy hunting ground, with some interesting sidelights on our nocturnal aristocracy of 'brains' and hooze." A silver offering will be lifted.
Blew Auto Horn to Annoy Her, She Says
Thomas H. Robinson, 33. 2484 Seventh avenue, near 144th street, paid a $10 fine when arraigned before Magistrate Glatzmayer in Night Court last week on a disorderly conduct charge preferred by Mrs. Lillian Jackson, 309 West 148th street. For the past three weeks, Mrs. Jackson said, Robinson had been parking his car in front of her ground-floor apartment and continually tooting his horn for the sole purpose of annoying her.
Mrs. Jackson attributed Robinson's horn-blowing efforts to the fact that she had attempted to have him repay a loan of $512. She said she had loaned Robinson the money a year ago and had subsequently, upon his refusal to make good the loan, gotten a judgment against him for the sum involved. However, she added, the judgment had proved fruitless, because Robinson did not have any money. Robinson pleaded not guilty. He said he just happened upon occasions to drive his car past Mrs. Jackson's home and, if he had blown his horn, it was only because circumstances made it necessary.

Claflin Students Form Alumni Association
Former students, graduates, teachers and friends of Claflin University residing here in New York have formed an alumni association for the purpose of keeping alive the Claflin spirit and to aid in the movement of a "Greater Claflin". The association was formed following an enthusiastic meeting held at the Y. W. C. A., 179 W. 137th street, when a large number of former students gathered in response to a call. Present at the first meeting of the association was Prof. William Cooke, a former member of the faculty of Claflin, who in an enthusiastic address told of the part that Claflin has played in the religious and educational life of the race in this country.
The following officers were elected: T. A. Dickson, president; Miss Ada Dore, vice-president; Miss Lulu Hunt, secretary; James Williams, treasurer; Gertrude Coleman, assistant secretary; Mrs. Lilian Rector, chairman of the program committee, and Cleveland G. Allen, director of publicity.
Claflin University was founded in 1896 with nine students.

According to the police, Hippe, while employed by a vermin exterminating company, was assigned to work in the building at 1183 Gerard avenue. While there he cleansed a room occupied by Ethel Ullman, white, who later discovered that her watch was missing.
The loss was reported to the police. Learning of Hippe having been in the room, police located him in an adjacent building. He was taken to the station house and, after much questioning, is alleged to have admitted taking the watch.

The check was made out in the name of Sherman Mason, owner of a barbershop at 453 Lenox avenue, and was drawn on the Chelsea Exchange Bank. The check, the complainant charges, was later returned by the bank because Mason's name had been forged.
Horn was arrested when he sought to cash a similar check in the furniture store of Morris Tannenbaum, white, 1867 Second avenue, when he purchased an ice-box for $17 and presented a check for $47.50, which was drawn on the same bank and also bore the name of Sherman Mason.

‘which we believed to be right und fair to our readers, if to no one else.
True. we might have made promises to come forth ‘with those things
‘which would perhaps appear to favor one side or the other, but let
those who howl loudest of promises broken not forget that they too
have made promises which, when the time ix ripe, we will recite in
these columns so that they who walk carefully can read.
‘On Saturday evening Mr. Frank Schiffman in an inspired state-
ment to this writer asserted that he way fully prepared to meet all the
demands of Local 306 in bebalf of the Negro motion picture operators.
«Mr. Schiffman declared that each and every item in the demands made
. by the union would be met, and when he left ux we felt that the time
‘was ripe to tell our anxious readers that victory had been won for the
colored boys,
But another element entered into this matter less than twenty-four
‘ours later. It was told to us that in spite of the charges being
omade that the race issue js the biggest thing in the fight. the Negro
*motion picture operators ca:ne out with their white co-workers in a
Sight against the Leo Brecher interests and not particularly the Latay-
‘ete Theatre.
‘Wo have deen told that white men in the Washington, the Olympic
and the Verona were called ont at the sume time the Negroes came
out of the Lafayette Theatre. On the face of this statement, and {f it is
trae, and to our way of thinking, Negroes apparently fighting for the
same thing a8 white men would not be held {n very high estimation by
their own if they should desert their white brothers at what they con-
sider a crucial moment in what they all believe to be a fight of “all
for one and one for all.” We have been told that the injunction which
Was uerved on the street speakers in this community did not specity
only the Lafayette Theatre, but the Washington and Olympic Theatres.
in that, we understand, this xame injunction prevented the picketing
of the Washington and Olympic.
‘The Negro operators claim that they would consider themselves
curs at this Ume to accept the salvation +?) offered and leave the white
men with whom they became affiliated to paddie their own canoe. They
say that, much as it would appear on the face of it all that they are
turning down a chance which Harlem believes they fought for. colored
geople must be made to understand that there are principles {nvolved
‘which preclude their accepting Mr. Scbiffman’s offer at this ume.
To cap the climax of the whole matter. It has been brought to us
that the musicians at the Lafayette have been called out by their union.
and white musicians now playing, we have been told. at the Plaz,
another house which is controlled by Mr. Brecher, have been notified
to take up thelr instruments and walk ont of the house by October 9.
‘it will be readily seen that this fight between the union and the Brecher
Apterests ig even deeper than apy one of us thought at the outset.
From time to time Local 306 has assured this writer that, Negro
eperators will not be confined to working in theatres in Harlem.’ When
‘We first started to ask for a chance for the Negro operators we natur-
gly Goumht that they should be given an opportunlty in those houses
ing supported by Negroes. On the other hand. ft is well to remem-
Yer that after those Negroes became members of the union they auto-
matically became part and parcel of the organization, and we have been
assured that Negro operators would go into the Plaza Theatre under
union conditions if Mr. Brecher saw fit to place them there.
It sounds fine to say that Negro operutors should be sent to
Broadway if the union is desirous of proving that they mean well by
the colored operators, but such a statement fy so empty and devoid of
common-sense in a day when every intelligent reader ix aware of the
conditions as-they exist between white and colored people here, it $s
an insult to ofer it as a subterfuge.
We would today counsel our colored operators to accept Mr. Schiff.
man's offer and go to work, but would we dare do that which is against
the very principles of those things for which we as u race have been
fighting? Is it not 9 fact that we have been fighting for equal opportunl-
tes along all lines? ‘Truth to tell, we have no advice to offer in this
matter except to say that Local 206 at first denied Negroes certain
rights: we came out and spoke against the conditions und both the
union and the Negro operators assured ux that the conditions had been
changed to the satisfaction cf the coloted men.
If, because of an attempt to take a fair stand In the matter, we
are forced in any way to make a sacrifice which would mean the loss
‘of our position, the good favor of those who did not sbow @ tendency
toward such good favor until months and months afterjtheir coming here.
the good will of actors who are more in our debt than we are in theirs,
or anything that will mean a deep sacrifice, we rixe to remark that
now is the time that some of us should wake up to the realization that
only until such time as we are prepared to make sacrifices in behalf of
our own will we secure those God-given rights which others have in
the past enjoyed. We ARE PREPARED FOR THE WORST.

white operators affiliated with Local 306 of the American Fed-

what has transpired is a forecast of what we can expect.
On last Saturday afternoon Mr. Frank Schiffman made a
slatement that he was prepared to accept the conditions of

Mr, Schiffman asserted that every demand of the union would
be met and this paper immediately consulted those supposed

should include the signing of other theatres“which were in-
volved when the colercd nen went ont of the Lafayette.

40 the dest Of Our auilty ane
in behalf of those who have fol-
lowed the events of this fight, we
secured another side of the mat-
ter when Thomas Johnson. who 1s
unquestionably the chief operator
at the Roosevelt and a Negro, made
the assertion that the Negro op
erators could not, under any cft-
cumstances, accept the offer of Mr.
Schiffman unless the Latayette in-
cluded the white operators with
which the Negroes are affiliated,
Johnson sald that at least two
other theatres are fovolved and
the colored and white men are bat-
tling as a perfect unit for what
ther consider their rights. The
[final conference ‘was held in Mr.
Brecher's office at the Plaza The-
jatre with Sat Kaplan, president
of the union, and Vice-President
‘Efchorn. It {s sald that the union
officials again refused to accept a
contract for the Lafayette unless
the Brecher people sigued for the
other houses.
In the meantime, it has come to
‘un that the Negro musicians at the
Lafayette Theatre bave been notl-
fied to withdraw by Local S02.
American Federation of Labor, and
it has deen emphatically told to
uus that the white musicians at the
Plaza Theatre. another house con-
trolled by Mr. Brecher. will be
forced to come out the latter part
of this week. Jt is also alleged
that every angle that can be lawful-
ly brought to ber will be called
nto play by the union.
Johnson, in making a statement
to this paper, says that he has
worked In many white theatres to
wholly white districts in all the
years gone by and he sees no rea
gon now why Negro operators
‘would not get a chance jn white
houses, ag it is the intention of
the union to place them wherever
8 tendency is shown to use them
by white owners of theatres,
That there will be further derel-
opments in this fight oes without
saying, Schiffman has impressed
us as being prepared to wage as
strong a battle as any map moved
with what he believes to be right.
while the unfon men claim they
will also wage a battle that will
last until the snows of spring start
to melt.

PICTURE FEATURE THIS WEEK
Gloria Svvanson doesa’t think
the Charleston's so much, AS #
mattor of fact, she thinks every-
one can do {t these days. Charles-
ton dancers are found everywhere.
But where does one find a dancer
who can do the “of to Butialo,"
“French twist,” “strut,” “swinging
step,” “exit step,” and s lot of
others that Miss Swanson's been
learning lately? *
Perhaps you think they're easy
to acquire. If you do, ask Gloria
how long she practiced while re-
hearsing for scenes fo her Iatest
Paramount picture. “Fine Man-
ners,” which comes to the Lincoln
‘Theatre this Thursday.“ But sbe
knows them now and can perform
with all the nonchalance and skill
of o regular campaigner.

over thé fast eleven of St. John the

and speed, both teams fought hard
through three perlods with the
score standing 6-0 at the beginning

Bordéntown's attack strengthen-
ed here, however, and a clever off
tackle thrust by Goosby put the
bail on St. John's five yard ine,
and a minute later Waples took 1:

THE STATUS OF GENE TUNNEY
To the Editors of the Negro Press:
In the interests of fairness, justice and accuracy, The
New York Age suggests that in the future all reference
mace to Gene Tunney be that of “white heavyweight
champion,” and not “heavyweight champion of the world.”
Tunney, adopting the dodging tactics of Jack Dempsey,
has found it advisable to hide behind the COLOR LINE to
escape a dreaded meeting in the ring with Harry Wills,
-colored heavyweight champion. °
‘The world’s heavyweight championship title can never
be rightly won nor held while a white champion refuses
to fight = colored champion, or vice versa. There exists
today two distinct heavyweight divisions—one of white
fighters and one of colored fighters.
Give Tunney his just deserts—no more or no less. If
some of his over-enthusiastic admirers want to make him
what HE IS NOT, that is their business. Let us stick to
the facts and the truth. ©
That the above suggestion from The New York Age
will be followed by every sport writer on Negro news-
papers is a foregone conclusion. The Amsterdam News
giedly accepts the suggestion from the Age, which we
consider one of the most timely made at a time when a
studied attempt to keep Wills oct of his chance for the
championship will be the result of Tunney’s victory over
Dempsey.

game. Dick Lundy, youthful man-

It did not take long for the
Giants to display the fire and dash
that enabled them to overthrow the
Monarchs in the west. In the sec-
ond inning, Hines, the aggressive
catcher‘of the invaders. opened
hostilities with a single to lett
field. Sweatt got a free ticket
from Rat and Marlarcher made it
three on and none out when Mar-
cell failed to handle his bunt down
the third base line. Henderson
fanned Williams, but Jackson sent
a roller down to the pitcher's box
and the Bacharach hurler threw
wild to the plate. permitting the
fleet Hines to come racing home

Darkness forced. the officials to
call off the game at the end of the
ninth and it wus decided to play
again at the same park on Satur-
day. No game hed originally been
scheduled for that date.
In this opening contest both
teams seemed well matched and
both were guilty of errors caused
by overaurlety rather than in-
ability. There were thrilling sit-
uations enough to ploase the most
ardent fans.
Harry Wills, now rated the out-
standing challenger for heavy-
weight honors, {s swinging into the
last few deys of training for bis
fifteen round bout with Jack
Sharkey, of Boston, at Ebbets Field
Columbus Day, which will mark the
sloso of the 1926 outdoor season.
Wills has worked for this match as
‘never before, realizing that, in
‘Sharkey he is meeting the toughest
‘opponent in several yeers.
"The Brown Panther has worn
out several sets of sparring part-
‘ners in his dally workouts at Billy
‘Grupp's Harlem gymnasium, and
Manager Paddy Mullins has had
‘more than bis share’ of .trouble
keeping him supplied, Wills knows
that in Sharkey he 1s not being fed
a set-up. He will not find another
Tut Jackson or a Kid Norfolk in
the clever, twofisted young Hub
heavyweight who recently astound-
ed the fistic world by outpolating
George Godfrey, of Leiperville, Pa.
No one reolizes this mote fully
‘than Paddy Mullins’ Brown Pan-
ther. And Ro one realizes more
fully than Wills what 2 victory over
‘Sharkey will mean. Wills and
Sharkey stand out as the leading
[contenders for the Dig crown now
worn by Gene Tunney, the Green-
; wich Village- ex-Marine.
‘Wills ows that he will have to
‘de at his best to beat the youns-
‘ster who holds victories over such
heavyweights as” Jeck Renault,
George Cook. Floyd Jobson, Jim
‘Maloney, King Solomon, Johnny
'Risko, Jack DeMave, Eddie Heff-
‘man and many others. He will
heve to be closer to his old fighting
form than he was when he en-
countered Bartley Madden and
Lals Firpo.
‘The edvance sale for the bis
windup war of the outdoor season
has been smashing records every
day. Promoter Humbert J. Fugazy
js more then surprised with the
demand for tickets “I figured
that Wills and Sharkey was about
the best heavyweigat bout avail.
able, but the tremendous demand
for tickets kas far surpassed my ex
| pectations.”

If you have read the Amsterdam

unnecessary to try any lengthy in-
troduction of our old friend Canada
Lee. “However. we believe it is
timely to remind you that Canada

Canada has bowled them over in
such regular order he could not re-
sist the importunities of many
managers to bearken unto the call
of the professional ranks, and this
week at Madison Square Garden
he will make-his initial appearance
among the money getters.
It they give Canada the same
break in the ranks of professional
pugiiism as ‘they gave him in the
amateurs, then we expect to con-
Unue to grace the columns of this
paper ‘with his accomplishments all
the time. Lee is one of the lum!-

one of the leading organizations of
its kind in this country, and he has
brought added lustre to his club not
only by his sterling performances
but by his gentlemanly. conduct
which is a feature of the boys of

RAY TO LEAD
‘BATES ELEVEN
LEWISTON, Me., Oct. 2.—Chas.
D. Ray, of Westchester, Pa, is the
first colored football captain Bates
Coliege ever had. His election this
Week was unanimous. There was
no quibbling over the color line.
Not only was he the logical man
for the place, Deing recognized as
one of the best backs in Maine, but
he was also the popular choice of
his teammates. Probably there Is
no student at Bates held in higher
esteem by the faculty and student
body. His scholastic attainments
are on a par with his football play-
ing. Donaid Cobb of Gardiner was
elected football captain at the close
of last season, but bis failure to
return this fal] left the team with-
out a captain,
Since? coming to Bates in 1923,
Ray has been an outstanding figure
in athletics. He 1s famous for his
forward passes, which are bullet-
Uke in speed and accuracy. He
plays In the outfield on the varsity
dasedall team, is 2 good hitter and
fast baserunner. His track work
also has attracted attention.
Charlfe is a senior, but he has a
brother Dave Ray, who entered
Bates last year and already has
won a place in the backfield in the
varsity eleven. Dave is big ond
bulky, a striking contrast to wiry
Httle Charlie.

The same outfit which played
last year will again be in action,
‘The team appears very strong to
date, with Pinkie Clark and Lanky
Jones, by many critics considered
to be the two greatest offensive
players of the 1925-26 collegiate
season, in the Lneup. Wilmer
Jones, Chick Edwards and Peacock
will complete the line-up.

Salem M. E. Church
"What Think Ye of Jesus the Christ?" This pointed question was the subject of the Rev. Dr. F. A. Cullen's discourse at the morning services at Salem Church just Sunday. Since his return Dr. Cullen has in his sermons been driving steadily at a more clean-cut attitude for Christ and His principles of life.
At the evening worship the new order of service for the first Sunday was instituted. There was no sermon. Instead, Dr. Cullenadministered the sacrament for the first time during the day. This custom is to be the regular order hereafter. The Communion wine was mixed with water drawn from Jacob's well, which the pastor had brought with him on his return from the Holy Lands. Jacob's Dream. a pageant, was presented at the Lyceum by Mrs. Marshfield and a number of her co-workers. At the Epworth League Miss Luella Staples had charge of the program. In the morning Dr. Cullen baptized 15 bables and young children with water he had brought from the River Jordan. The members of the Official Board were quite surprised and charmed with the souvenirs that Dr. Cullen brought home for them.
Sunday morning, directly after church services, the funeral services of Mrs. Sarah Boley were conducted by the pastor. Mrs. Boley was one of the original members at the beginning of Dr. Cullen's pastorate and had faithfully followed Salem's growth through all its stages.
The pastor, the Rev. Dr. John W. Robinson, preached the Sunday

If your husband has stomach trouble you can help him by seeing that he has a supply of Bisurated Magnesia (either powder or a spoonful of powder) or two tablets taken in a little water after meals will instantly neutralize the acidic food you have trouble and he can enjoy his meals with no more fear of indigestion. Bisurated Magnesia used by thousands to neutralize stomach acidity and quickly overcome indigestion. Carbonate, Block of Citrate of Magnesia. Insist on Bisurated. Its action is safe, prompt and sure and it can be used to cost from any reliable drug store.

Chapter Five
AT THE sight of the pistol, the Countess for the second time exhibited strong emotion. She shook her head and raised her hands as if to protect herself from the shot . . . then she fell backwards and remained motionless.
"Come, an end to this childish nonsense!" said Hermann, taking hold of her hand. "I ask you for the last time; will you tell me the names of your three cards, or will you not?"
The Countess made no reply. Hermann perceived that she was dead!
***
Lizanka was sitting in her room, still in her ballroom dress, lost in deep thought. On returning home, she had hastily dismissed the chambermaid, who very reluctantly came forward to assist her, saying that she would undress herself, and with a trembling heart had gone up to her own room, expecting to find Hermann there, but yet hoping not to find him. At the first glance she convinced herself that he was not there, and she thanked her fate for having prevented him from keeping the appointment. She sat down without undressing, and began to recall to mind all the circumstances which in so short a time had carried her so far. It was not three weeks since the time when she first saw the young officer from the window—and yet she was already in correspondence with him, and he had succeeded in inducing her to grant him a nocturnal interview!
She knew his name only through his having written it at the bottom of some of his letters; she had never spoken to him, had never heard his voice, and had never heard him spoken of until that evening. But, strange to say, that very evening at the ball, Tomsky, being piqued with the young Princess Pauline, who, contrary to her usual custom, did not flirt with him, wished to revenge himself by assuming an air of indifference. He therefore engaged Lizanka and had a long dance with her. During the whole of the time he kept teasing her about her partiality for Engineer officers; he assured her that he knew far more than she imagined, and some of his jests were so happily aimed that Lizanka thought several times that her secret was known to him.
"From whom have you learnt all this?" she asked, smiling.
"From a friend of a person very well known to you," replied Tomsky. "from a very distinguished man." "And who is this distinguished man?"
His name is Hermann.
Vikanka made no reply but her hands and feet lost all sense of feeling.
"This Hermann," continued Tomsky, "is a man of romantic personality. He has the profile of a Napoleon and the soul of a Mephistopheles. I believe that he has at least three crimes upon his conscience. . . How pale you have become!"
"I have a headache. . . But what did this Hermann—or whatever his name is—tell you?"
"Hermann is very much dissatisfied with his friend; he says that in his place he would act very differently. . . I even think that Hermann himself has designs upon you; at least, he listens very attentively to all that his friend has to say about you."
"And where has he seen me?"
And where has he seen her.
"In church, perhaps, or on the parade—God alone knows where. It may have been in your room, while you were asleep, for there is nothing that he—"
Three ladies approaching him interrupted the conversation, which had become so tantalizingly interesting to Lizanka.
Tomsky's words were nothing more than the customary small talk of the dance, but they sank deep into the soul of the young dreamer. The portrait, sketched by Tomsky, coincided with the picture she had formed within her own mind, and thanks to the latest romances, the ordinary countenance of her admirer became invested with attributes capable of alarming her and fascinating her imagination at the same time. She was now sitting with her bare arms crossed and her head, still adorned with flowers, sunk upon her uncovered bosom. Suddenly the door opened and Hermann entered. She shuddered.
"Where were you?" she asked in a terrified whisper.
"In the old Countess's bedroom," replied Hermann; "I have just left her. The Countess is dead."
"My God! What do you say?"
book: that do
"And I am afraid" added Hermann. "that I am the
cause of her death."
Lizanka looked at him, and Tomsky's words found an echo in her soul: "This man has at least three crimes upon his conscience!" Hermann sat down by the window near her and related all that had happened.
Lizanka listened to him in terror. So all those passionate letters, those ardent desires, this bold, obstinate pursuit—all this was not love! Money—that was what his soul yearned for! She could not satisfy his desire and make him happy! The poor girl had been nothing but the blind tool of a robber, of the murderer of her aged benefactress!

OULD that I stood as other men:
Proud and erect, because no ban
Rivets their possibilities,

Would that I stood as other men

That I might in myself have pride
And, as other men, go as far
Who do not know the color bar!
Who knows the heights or depths I might

-Bu ALEXANDER S. PUSHKIN
She wept bitter tears of agonized repentance. Hermann gazed at her in silence: his heart, too, was a prey to violent emotion, but neither the tears of the poor girl, nor the wonderful charm of her beauty, enhanced by her grief, could produce any impression upon his hardened soul. He felt no pricking of conscience at the thought of the dead old woman. One thing only grieved him: the irreparable loss of the secret from which he had expected to obtain great wealth.
"You are a monster!" said Lizanka at last.
"I did not wish for her death," replied Hermann. "My pistol was not loaded."
Both remained silent.
The day began to dawn. Lizanka extinguished her candle; a pale light illumined her room. She wiped her tear-stained eyes and raised them toward Hermann. He was sitting near the window, with his arms crossed and with a fierce frown upon his forehead. In this attitude he bore a striking resemblance to the portrait of Napoleon. This resemblance struck Lizanka even.
"How shall I get you out of the house?" said she at last. "I thought of conducting you down the secret staircase, but in that case it would be necessary to go through the Countess's bedroom, and I am afraid."
"Tell me how to find this secret staircase—I will go alone."
Lizanka arose, took from her drawer a key, handed it to Hermann and gave him the necessary instructions. Hermann pressed her cold, limp hand, kissed her bowed head, and left the room.
He descended the winding staircase, and once more entered the Countess's bedroom. The dead old lady sat as if petrified; her face expressed profound tranquillity. Hermann stopped before her and gazed long and earnestly at her, as if he wished to convince himself of the terrible reality. At last he entered the cabinet, felt behind the tapestry for the door, and then began to descend the dark staircase, filled with strange emotions.
At the bottom of the staircase Hermann found a door, which he opened with a key, and then traversed a corridor which conducted him into the street.
THREE days after the fatal night, at nine o'clock in the morning, Hermann repaired to the Convent, where the last honors were to be paid to the mortal remains of the old Countess. Although feeling no remorse, he could not altogether stifle the voice of conscience, which said to him: "You are the murderer of the old woman!" In spite of his entertaining very little religious belief, he was exceedingly superstitious, and believing that the dead Countess might exercise an evil influence on his life, he resolved to be present at her obsequies, in order to implore her pardon. The church was full. It was with difficulty that Hermann made his way through the crowd of people. The coffin was placed upon a rich catafalque beneath a velvet curtain. The deceased Countess lay within it, with her hands crossed upon her heart, with a lace cap upon her head and dressed in a white satin robe. Around the catafalque stood the members of her household and relatives.
Nobody wept—tears would have been out of place. The Countess was so old that her death could have surprised nobody, and her relatives had long looked upon her as being out of the world. A famous preacher pronounced the funeral sermon. In simple and touching words he described the peaceful passing away of the righteous, who had passed long years in calm preparation for a Christian end.
"The angel of death found her," said the orator, "engaged in pious meditation and waiting for the midnight bridegroom."
The service concluded amidst profound silence. The relatives went forward first to take farewell of the corpse. Then followed the numerous guests, who had come to render the last homage to her who for so many years had been a participant in their frivolous amusements. After these followed the members of the Countess's household. The last of these was an old woman of the same age as the deceased. The young women led her forward by the hand. She had not strength enough to bow down to the ground—she merely shed a few tears and kissed the cold hand of her mistress.
Hermann now resolved to approach the coffin. He knelt down upon the cold stones and remained in that position for some minutes; at last he arose, as pale as the deceased Countess herself. He ascended the steps of the catafalque and bent over the corpse. At that moment it seemed to him that the dead woman darted a mocking look at him and winked with one eye. Hermann started back, took a false step and fell to the ground. Several persons hurried forward and raised him up.
At that same moment Lizanka was borne fainting into the porch of the church. This episode disturbed for some minutes the solemnity of the gloomy ceremony. Among
Reach, were I released from this black night
Of denial, hate and scorn
And loose the fetters that adorn
My soul, my mind and bind my hands
To lowly tasks, like iron bands?
Who knows but I would then arise
Gigantic, and the world surprise
And benefit, without a mar?
Then, that might shake the color bar!
Democracy! Democracy!
Art thou only a mockery?
And freedom for the few
Whose skin is white, whose blood is blue?
Will not sickness and death hefall
The white, black, yellow, brown, red and all?
Can whites love whites, no others trust.
When all must soon come to the dust
And greedy worms their white skins mar?
For there they'll find no color bar!
—Henry T. Bradley.
Both remained silent.
Chapter Six
the congregation arose a deep murmur, and a tall, thin chamberlain, a near relative of the deceased, whispered in the ear of an Englishman, who was standing near him, that the young officer was a natural son of the Countess, to which the Englishman coldly replied: "Oh!"
During the whole of that day Hermann was strangely excited. Repairing to an out-of-the-way restaurant to dine, contrary to his usual custom, he drank a great deal of wine, in the hope of deadening his inward agitation. But the wine only served to excite his imagination still more. On returning home he threw himself upon his bed without undressing, and fell into a deep sleep.
When he awoke it was already night and the moon was shining into the room. He looked at his watch. It was a quarter to three. Sleep had left him. He sat down upon his bed and thought of the funeral of the old Countess.
At that moment somebody in the street looked in at his window and immediately passed on again. Hermann paid no attention to this incident. A few moments afterwards he heard the door of his anteroom open. Hermann thought that it was his orderly, drunk as usual, returning from some nocturnal expedition, but presently he heard footsteps that were unknown to him. Somebody was walking softly over the floor in slippers. The door opened and a woman dressed in white entered the room. Hermann mistook her for his old nurse and wondered what could bring her there at that hour of night. But the white woman glided rapidly across the room and stood before him—and Hermann recognized in her the old Countess.
"I have come to you against my wish," she said in a firm voice. "but I have been ordered to grant your request. THREE, SEVEN, ACE will win for you if played in succession, but only on these conditions: That you do not play more than one card in twenty-four hours, and that you never play again during the rest of your life. I forgive you my death, on condition that you marry my companion Lizanka."
With these words she turned around very quietly, walked with a shuffling gait towards the door and disappeared. Hermann heard the street door open and shut, and again he saw someone look in at him through the window.
For a long time Hermann could not recover himself. He then rose up and entered the next room. His orderly was lying asleep upon the floor and he had much difficulty in waking him. The orderly was drunk, as usual, and no information could be obtained from him. The street door was locked. Hermann returned to his room, lit his candle, and wrote down all the details of his vision.
Two fixed ideas can no more exist together in the moral world than two bodies can occupy one and the same place in the physical world. "THREE, SEVEN, ACE," soon drove out of Hermann's mind the thought of the dead Countess. "THREE, SEVEN, ACE" were perpetually running through his head and continually being repeated by his lips.
If he saw a young girl, he would say: "How slender she is! Quite like the three of hearts." If anybody asked: "What is the time?" he would reply: "Five minutes to seven." Every stout man he saw reminded him of the ace.
"THREE, SEVEN, ACE" haunted him in his sleep and assumed all possible shapes. One thought alone occupied his whole mind—to make a profitable use of the secret he had purchased so dearly. He thought of applying for a furlough so as to travel abroad. He wanted to go to Paris and tempt fortune in some of the public gambling houses that abound there. Chance spared him all this trouble.
There was in Moscow a society of rich gamesters, presided over by the celebrated Chekalinsky, who had passed all his life at the card table and had amassed millions, accepting bills of exchange for his winnings and paying his losses in ready cash. His long experience secured for him the confidence of his companions, and his open house, his famous cook, and his agreeable and fascinating manner gained for him the respect of the public. He came to St. Petersburg. The young men of the capital flocked to his rooms, forgetting balls for cards, and preferring the emotions of them to the seductions of flirting. Narumov conducted Hermann to Chekalinsky's residence. Here he planned to play the three winning cards given him by the dead Countess.
Narumov and Hermann passed through a suite of magnificent rooms filled with attentive domestics. The place was crowded. Generals and Privy Counsellors were playing at whist; young men were lolling carelessly upon the velvet-covered sofas, eating ices and smoking pipes. In the drawing room, at the head of a long table, around which were assembled a score of players, sat the master of the house keeping the bank. He was a man of about sixty years of age, of a very dignified appearance; his head was covered with silvery-white hair, his full, florid countenance expressed good-nature, and his eyes twinkled with a perpetual smile. Narumov introduced Hermann to him. Chekalinsky shook him by the hand in a friendly manner, requested him not to stand on ceremony, and then went on dealing.
"EXCELSIOR"
EXCELSIOR has been defined as higher, more elevated, more advanced. Objectively it is a call to take higher ground, climb to greater altitude, strive for greater accomplishments. Subjectively it expresses dissatisfaction with the present status, present attainments, and both the inner urge and the unfaltering determination to make progress in things which are contributory to self-advancement and to human development.
Higher thoughts are imperative, for it is an incontrovertible fact that, "As a man thinketh in his heart, so he is." Thoughts are inner forces and potentialities which act upon our whole being and, to a great extent, decide our destiny. Evil thoughts incite to crime, social immoralities and debasing sensuality, while the habit of "thinking good" is productive of virtue and rectitude.
Higher vision is of supreme importance, for, if one's vision is low and his horizon narrow he will indulge life

The game occupied some time. On the table lay more than thirty cards. Chekalinsky paused after each throw, in order to give the players time to arrange their cards and note down their losses, listened politely to their request, and more politely still, put straight the corners of cards that some player's hand had chanced to bend. At last the game was finished. Chekalinsky shuffled the cards and prepared to deal again.
"Will you allow me to take a card?" said Hermann, stretching out his hand from behind a stout gentleman who was playing.
Chekalinsky smiled and bowed silently, as a sign of acquiescence. Narumov laughingly congratulated Hermann on his abjuration of that abstention from cards which he had practiced for so long a period, and wished him a lucky beginning.
"Stake!" said Hermann, writing some figures with chalk on the back of his card.
"How much?" asked the banker, contracting the muscles of his eyes; "excuse me, I cannot see quite clearly."
"Forty-seven thousand dollars," replied Hermann.
At these words every head in the room turned suddenly round, and all eyes were fixed upon Hermann.
"He has taken leave of his senses!" thought Narumov.
"Allow me to inform you," said Chekalinsky, with his eternal smile, "that you are playing very high; nobody has ever staked more than two hundred and seventy-five dollars at once."
"Very well," replied Hermann; "but do you accept my card or not?"
Chekalinsky bowed in token of consent.
"I only wish to observe," said he, "that, although I have the greatest confidence in my friends, I can only play against ready money. For my own part, I am quite convinced that your word is sufficient, but for the sake of the order of the game, and to facilitate the reckoning up, I must ask you to put the money on your card."
Harman drew from his pocket a bank-note and handed it to Chekalinsky, who, after examining it in a cursory manner, placed it on Hermann's card.
He began to deal. On the right a nine turned up, and on the left a three.
"I have won!" said Hermann, showing his card.
A murmur of astonishment arose among the players. Chekalinsky frowned, but the smile quickly returned to his face.
"Do you wish me to settle with you?" he said to Hermann.
"If you please," replied the latter.
Chekalinsky drew from his pocket a number of bank-notes and paid at once. Hermann took up his money and left the table. Narumov could not recover from his astonishment Hermann drank a glass of lemonade and returned home.
The next evening he again repaired to Chekalinsky's. The host was dealing. Hermann walked up to the table; the players immediately made room for him. Chekalinsky greeted him with a gracious bow.
Hermann waited for the next deal, took a card and placed upon it his forty-seven thousand dollars, together with his winnings of the previous evening.
Chekalinsky began to deal. A knave turned up on the right, a 'seven on the left.
Hermann showed his seven.
There was a general exclamation. Chekalinsky was evidently ill at ease, but he counted out the ninety-four thousand dollars and handed them over to Hermann, who pocketed them in the coolest manner possible and immediately left the house.
The next evening Hermann appeared again at the table. Every one was expecting him. The Generals and Privy Counsellors left their whist in order to watch such extraordinary play. The young officers quitted their sofas, and even the servants crowded into the room. All pressed around Hermann. The other players stopped, impatient to see how it would end.
Hermann stood at the table and prepared to play alone against the pale but still smiling Chekalinsky. Each opened a pack of cards. Chekalinsky shuffled. Hermann took a card and covered it with a pile of bank-notes. It was like a duel. Deep silence reigned around.
Chekalinsky began to deal; his hands trembled. On the right a queen turned up, and on the left an ace.
"Ace has won!" cried Hermann, showing his card.
"Your queen has lost," said Chekalinsky politely.
Hermann started; instead of an ace, there lay before him the queen of spades! He could not believe his eyes, nor could he understand how he had made such a mistake.
At that moment it seemed to him that the queen of spades smiled ironically and winked her eye at him. He was struck by her remarkable resemblance.
"The old Countess!" he exclaimed, seized with terror.
Chekalinsky gathered up his winnings, shuffled the cards aflesh and the game went on as usual.
A few weeks later Hermann lost his mind. "Three, seven, ace!" "Three, seven, queen!" he muttered constantly.
(THE END.)
and evaluate character accordingly. No one was ever inclined and influenced to strive for higher things until he had gotten a vision of these higher things, hence the importance of a higher vision!
"Aim high" is an aphorism worthy of adoption, as it means to point higher, direct efforts toward higher things, strive for higher attainments and more worthwhile achievements—those which in character and utility are more exalted and exalting. The sphere of its functions includes coveting higher honors and being actuated by higher principles and aspirations.
Climbing higher will be the natural result of aiming higher. To sum up: Higher thought will be productive of higher vision; higher vision will beget higher aspirations and determinations; higher aims will incite to struggle for higher, more commendable and more beneficial attainments, and all of these combined will culminate in higher living, both subjectively and objectively.
In all activities of life one could adopt no more worthy or beneficial motto than EXCEL STOR

Five-Year Fight Frees Texas Man
Luther Collins Spent Five Years in Jail on Serious Charge
After five years of unremitting effort, the Houston, Texas, branch of the N. A. A. C. P. has won a spectacular fight resulting in the liberation of Luther Collins, who was successively sentenced to death and then to 99 years in prison, and has spent in all five years in jail.
Mr. Collins was convicted and sentenced on the testimony of a white woman of ill repute, and the contradictions in the testimony also together with evidence of Mr. Collins good character, made it evident he was innocent of the assault charged.
Recently Luther Collins' 99-year sentence was reversed and the district attorney of Fort Ben County, Texas, gave the Collins attorney authority to try the case in any county he wished. The attorney promptly named Washington County, where the attorney had practised law for 25 years. The bond was at once reduced for $7,500 to $2,500 and Collins was released under bond in March of this year. Bond was signed by four of the most prominent white and four of the most prominent colored men of the city of Houston, one of the white men being secretary of the chamber of commerce, two of them bankers and the fourth a prominent merchant.
After a number of consultations between the district attorney of Washington County, the Judge and the defense attorneys, the district attorney moved that the case be dismissed. Collins was freed early in September and is now working at the job he held before his arrest.

Government to Look Into Miami Peonage
The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People announces receipt of a letter from Everett Sanders, secretary to President Coolidge, stating that the President has directed the Attorney-General to investigate reports of virtual peonage enforced, against Negroes only, in the district of Miami, where he was prosecuted in labor at clearing away the storm debris. Mr. Sanders' letter to James Weldon Johnson, secretary of the N. A. A. C. P., reads as follows:
Your telegram of September 27 has been received and, by the President's direction, it is at once being brought to the attention of the Attorney-General.
Sincerely yours,
EVERETT SANDERS,
Secretary to the President
SULLIVAN LAW HOLDS
TWO FOR HEARINGS
Two men were held for a further hearing on charges of having loaded revolvers in their possession when they were arraigned before Magistrate Douras in the Heights Court last week.
Policeman Bevans, of the W. 135th street station, arrested Mattings Refd, 29, at his home, 32 W. 135th street. A neighbor complained that Refd had threatened to shoot him. The revolver was found in the man's pocket, Bevans said.
When Magistrate Douras found that Reid served a 30-day sentence in the workhouse last August for stealing, he refused to admit him to bail.
Arthur Yarbrough, 23, 113 W. 140th street, was arrested by policeman Sheehan of the 18th Division in a hallway at 101 W. 140th street, when Sheehan became suspicious of a loaded .38 caliber revolver in Yarbrough's hip pocket, the policeman charged.
Ernest Wood, 23, 5 E. 137th street, who struck and killed Rose McCaulley, 2, white, in front of her home, 729 E. 134th street, with his truck on Sept. 11, was discharged for lack of evidence by Magistrate Flood in the Bronx Homicide Court, Wednesday.
Wood, who was operating the truck without a license, pleaded guilty to that charge and was fined $50 or three days in jail. He did not have the money and was committing the crime.
The little girl, who was the youngest of eight children, was running across the street toward her home when the fatal accident occurred. The front wheel struck her and the rear wheel passed over her body. She died instantly.
3 MEN AND WOMAN
HELD IN DRUG NET
Accused with having narcotics in their possession, three men and one woman were held for a further hearing by Magistrate Bernard Douras in the Washington Heights Court Thursday.
They gave their names as: Marla Bell, 25, 129 W. 134th street; Jas. Johnson, 23, 141 W. 230th street; Arnold Pensey, 23, 2278 Seventh avenue, and John Howard, 25, 134th street.
Detective Cinger, of the Narcotic Squad, told Magistrate Douras he found the three men and the woman gathered around a table in the Bell woman's apartment, on which he found two hypodermic syringes and a heroin mixture.
Every new voter is required to present a certificate of literacy before he or she can vote. Evening School No. 139. Seventh avenue and 140th street, is open October 4 to 9, inclusive, for those desiring to take the literacy test. The hours are from 7:30 to 10:30.
SERVES LIFE TERM IN ONLY TEN MINUTES
LITTLE ROCK, Ark. Oct. 4.—The shortest life sentence probably ever recorded was served here in the Arkansas penitentiary a day last week.
Will Willoby, 65, of Desarc, sentenced to life imprisonment for murder, died ten minutes after he had been admitted to the prison office.
Prison authorities believe he took poison. Physicians say no.
- Filling to pay his tax fare
Richard Wagner, 33, white musician, 10233 Eighty-fifth street.
Richmond Hill, L. I. was arrested on the complaint of Ira Richard, 38 W. 138th street, the driver. He was dismissed when he was arraigned before Magistrate Glatzmeyer in Night Court last week after he had paid the bill.
Young Man Held as Thief Suspect Police Say He Confessed He Stole Clothing From Apartment
On a charge of burglary, a twenty-two year old man, who gave his name as William Brown, 483 Lenox avenue, was held without ball for a further hearing by Magistrate Albert Vitale in the Harlem Court Thursday.
Brown is charged with burglarizing the home of Ralph C. Hearns, white, building contractor, 17 E. 84th street. He gained entrance, it is charged, by removing the window screen, and stole several suits of clothes valued at $600, which he packed in two suit-cases. After the burglary, Brown is alleged to have taken the stolen articles to the areaway of an apartment house at 1291 Madison avenue.
He was leaving the areaway when he was stopped by Policeman McCube of the East 104th street station. While being questioned, Brown broke away from the policeman and ran away, being caught in case of several blocks. Returning to the areaway, the policeman alleges he found the stolen clothing.
Brown, it is said, then admitted stealing them from the Hearns home.

A Rusting Machine the A.M.E. Church
CONTINUING our discussion of the "Church Today," presented two weeks ago, we believe that it will readily be admitted that the African Methodist Episcopal Church denomination, founded in 1816 by Richard Allen, who afterward became its first bishop, is the greatest church organization, and one of the greatest organizations among Negroes in the world. The 1926 Negro Year Book gives it a membership of nearly 600,000 in its 6,900 churches. The value of its church property is estimated at $16,320,284. There are a larger number of Baptist, probably three and a half million, but these are organized along different lines and cannot be treated as one body.
IT IS PROBABLE that the A. M. E. Church reached the highest point of all round usefulness to the Negro race prior to the death in 1915 of Bishop Henry McNeal Turner, then senior bishop, who showed those virile qualities of leadership so much needed today by the masses of Negroes. Since that time the denomination, while increasing its membership, is seemingly losing its spirituality by encouraging corrupt leadership and, consequently, losing its real usefulness.
ITS QUADRENNIAL conferences and elections of bishops and general officers to fill vacancies elevates too many men to the bishopric and other high offices who are not imbued with a spirit of service either to their denomi-
"Tuberculosis Kills Three Times as Many Negroes as Whites"
Metropolitan Life Insurance Company Completes Survey of "White Plague" Among Its Policyholders
The tuberculosis death rate among the industrial population of United States and Canadian cities is lowest in the Western Provinces of Canada, and highest, with only one exception, in the Eastern Provinces, the Metropolitan Life Insurance Company announced recently. The East South Central States of the United States proved the highest of all, according to a statistical study the company conducted on the basis of its own policyholders.
The study further revealed that tuberculosis mortality more than 2,000,000 Quebec and New Brunswick," the report stated.
Next to the western provinces of Canada, it was found, the lowest tuberculosis death rate was registered in the individual population of the cities in the West North Central States. In this group Nebraska had the third best rank among the States and provinces.
Delegate to Y. M. C. A.
Knew He Was a Negro
(Preston News Service.)
HARTFORD, Conn., Oct. 4—Kenneth C. Aldridge, delegate to the world congress of the Y. M. C. A., held recently at Helsingfors, Finland, says that the Negroes were given the same consideration as other delegates. "Even the white American lad put aside his traditional prejudices, for the time being anyway," he said. Aldridge issued a statement of his impressions, which reads, in part, as follows:
"It often happens when a Negro returns from travel in Europe or some northern part of the United States that he expresses his enjoyment by such an expression as 'I didn't even know I was colored until I looked in the glass'—meaning I suppose, that the thought of his be-

The New. Ku Klux Klan
Quality and not quantity is the present-day slogan with the Knights of the Ku Klux Klan throughout the United States. This is the program in every State that has followed the purging and house cleaning that has been going on inside the organization.
So speaks one of the Klan organs, the Fellowship Forum, and it is permissible to read between the lines. The "purging and house cleaning" which the Klan has received is one way of describing the wholesale defections from which it has suffered; the idea of "quality and not quantity" in a money-making organization where every additional member means more income for industrious agents is a bit of noble-mindedness which one may regard with some suspicion. It is more likely that the Klan, having lost its quantity, is finding as much comfort as it can in the notion that what remains to it is quality.
As a matter of fact, the Klan is changing, there is in one sense a "new" Klan, and both the change and the reasons for it are instructive.
Time was when mere mystery, white hoods, oath sworn in the night and a jumble of grand titles like Sir Kilgraf and Imperial Klaetiphone, plus assurances that it stood steadfast against two or three vague "perils," were enough to find a certain market for the Klan. Given time, however, such attractions pall, the day comes when midnight rallies, electric crosses, shivers in the night and perpetual forearmedness against something which never comes all lose their charm. The only way to hold an organization even part way together in these circumstances is to give it something positive to enthuse about. It is this process of transition which now engages the attention of the organizers of the Klan.

nation or to the race. The same corruption that distinguishes American politics in general is playing too great a part in the election of bishops. As a consequence, the church is losing ground in all new centers of Negro population in the North through the failure of bishops to assign to the churches and presiding elderships men who are able to cope with the problems that confront the church and the race.
PARTICULARLY in New York City and Brooklyn the A. M. E. Church is playing little or no part in the social and economic progress. Other churches and denominations, by more readily adapting themselves to the needs and aspirations of the race, with less dissension and internal strife, with more inviting places of worship and with a greater spirit of service, are attracting the members of the A. M. E. Church.
The study further revealed that tuberculosis mortality among the more than 2,000,000 Negro "industrial" policy holders in 1925 was approximately three times that for the whites. The company found that the death rate from this cause among its 7,000 Negro policy holders in Canada was only 138.8 per 100,000, as compared with 227.0 in the United States.
THE GREAT A. M. E. CHURCH MA-CHINE, with its great possibilities for that kind of service that makes for progress along religious and all other lines, is rusting and in a bad state of repair. Greed, selfishness, politics, the arbitrary and autocratic power vested in its bishopric, are tearing its heart out and preventing it from playing the part hoped for it by those who sacrificed their lives and energies for it.
The study also showed an inevitably high tuberculosis mortality in Colorado, due to the large invalid population coming there from other regions. In a study of 23,608 deaths from tuberculosis in Colorado during the period 1908-1920, it was shown that for every case "developed" within the State five cases were contracted outside.
In showing the high death rate in Eastern Canada the Metropolitan statisticians found that Nova Scotia cities, with a rate of 150.5 per 100,000, registered higher tuberculosis mortality than that of any State or province, with the exception of Colorado. The cities of the Province of Quebec (121.8) had the third highest figure in both countries.
MESSAGES from the Bible found attached to the legs of wild geese killed recently in the South are said to have thrown colored communities into religious turmoil. Should the geese ever light in Harlem, they would cause a riot. The cause would be a different one from that which threw our Southern brethren into hysterics, though the Bible would still play its part. There would be some scramble to read and identify the verses so as to play them on the numbers.

MUSIC
Imperial Wizard before the recent "Third Biennial Convocation," one finds that its religious emphasis is shrunk from something like the 99 per cent of good old-fashioned Klan address to something like per cent or 30 per cent—and the rest of the Klan's oratory is spent chiefly upon three issues which are not religious but political; war debts, the World Court and Prohibition. None of these issues was originally part of the Klan's program, but any issue will do in a pinch—and when any one of these three arises in an election the Klan promptly claims credit, if it can. The Klan, of course, is dry, anti-court and for the collection of the last red penny of the war debts. And if Mr. Jones, nominated for the Senate in Kentucky or Virginia, is wet, pro-court but right (by Klan standards) on the war debts, then the Klan ignores his fitness and his approval of the court and proclaims tremendous victory for itself in the field of international finance. If Mr. Brown, nominated in Utah Nevada, is wrong on the debts, wrong on the court but right on Prohibition, then the Klan ignores attitude toward debts and court, concentrates on exhibition and bedecks itself with laurels. The thing is somewhat absurd, but none the less revealing. Human nature being what it is, andidity in the matter of nightshirts and flamingoses being soon arrived at, the Klan has lost the impetus of its first rush. It is no longer the eating organization which was to save American an emergency with its vast plans laid in secret. It has become instead a rather third-rate political morally embracing a backwoods philosophy on five issues not of its own making, and rushing antically from State to State to stand in the front row when the camera takes a picture.

(From the Western Press, Bristol, England.) "The Negro question in the United States is undoubtedly at the root of much of the violence and intimidation that is practised there. We in Europe can show nothing to match the dementia of a mob that still tears a Negro to pieces or burns him alive for his crimes. It is an odd illustration of the difference between theory and practice. in the United States that thousands of men who nominally possess full political rights dare not exercise them for fear of inviting the vengeance of their fellow citizens."

ing a Negro disappeared entirely from his mind, due to there being no obvious sign of prejudices or the like in the section visited. I am sure none of the Negro delegates to the world's Y. Y. M. C.

"NEGRO CRIME EXAGGERATED" — DARROW
(N. A. A. C. P. Press Service.)
Writing on "Crime and the Alarmists" in the October number of Harper's, a monthly magazine, Clarence Darrow points out that the crime of Negroes is vastly exaggerated. "The colored population," declares Mr. Darrow, "is charged with a share in the commission of crime quite out of proportion to their number. This, too, should always be considered in connection with the fact that in the North they live in industrial centers and in restricted, crowded areas, and that colored people, owing to race prejudice and poverty, are much more apt to be accused and convicted than the whites."
MARSHALL, Tex., Oct. 4.—It is conceded everywhere that the wet and dry question will figure very largely in the next presidential election. To answer this question so far as the Negro is concerned, Wiley College is launching a foundation for the study of "Prohibition and the Negro."

Can Cancer Be Cured?

LAST WEEK I told you of the prevalence of cancer among the Negroes as a group, in comparison to years gone by. I mentioned the fact, that the important thing in cancer treatment is an early diagnosis. This week I shall state what the early signs of cancer are. Most people are afraid of cancer and because of the fear they refrain from consulting a physician or surgeon until it is quite late in the development of the disease.
What we need is an educated public in matters of health; the consciousness of knowing that the deadliness of cancer is in the late discovery of its presence. What, then, are the early signs of cancer?
This depends upon the place of the body which is being attacked by cancer cells. The most frequent places of cancer are the stomach and intestines, the rectum, the womb, the breast, the lips and the tongue.
attempt for a permanent cure.
In women the womb and the breasts are always a source of trouble. At the birth of a child the womb of the mother is frequently injured. In nursing her baby the breasts becomes a vulnerable spot. Because of these irritations, cancer frequently develops.
Any woman who observes a lump in the breast, no matter
The lips and tongue are prone to cancer because of frequent irritation and injury. Excessive smoking; decayed and ragged teeth; a burn of the tongue from too hot foods; all these may be the exciting cause of cancer of the lips or tongue. Anyone noticing a persistent raw spot with a feeling of discomfort on the tongue or lip should immediately consult a physician, for this may be the beginning of a cancerous growth. An early operation before the cancer cells circulate and spread through the lymph channels and blood vessels will cure cancer completely.
Cancer of the stomach and intestines is a frequent condition. This is due to the abuse and injury which the stomach sustains. Too hot foods, too cold foods, too much food, irregular meals, badly cooked foods, strong liquor all these can injure the stomach and intestinal wall, resulting in gastritis and enteritis. If the injury continues, then ulcer of the stomach or intestines develops. This ulcer frequently changes into a cancer. The early and suspicious symptoms are persistent and frequent digestive disturbances. Pain, discomfort, loss of appetite, belching and burning in the pit of the chest or in the abdomen, with a steady loss in weight, are the symptoms that need a thorough examination.
The X-Ray and a chemical analysis of the stomach and intestinal contents are the exact methods of detection of cancer of these organs. An early operation will cure; a late operation means usually an unsuccessful

I Had a Dream
BEHOLD! I had a dream
And ere my soul
It passed beyond the
A night it was — sweet.
When moonbeams deteke
With fairy flakes of light
The flowers breathed a
Unto the silent air.
And Beauty slept while
Amidst this scene I stood
BEHOLD! I had a dream! A sweet, sad dream,
And ere my soul could stay its flight
It passed beyond the portals of immortal light.
A night it was — sweet, mystic night—
When moonbeams decked the dreamy boughs
With fairy flakes of light.
The flowers breathed a perfume rare
Unto the silent air.
And Beauty slept while angels lingered near.
Amidst this scene I stood entranced,
Listening to the thrill of rippling waters,
Telling tales of bygone days
When knights were bold and true
And maidens fair would droop their heads
To Cupid's fearless arrow.
Then suddenly upon the horizon,
Like one awakened from the dead,
Arose the Sun.
And night was changed into a perfect day—
Earth filled with song and throbbed with life again.
The flowers blushed beneath the sparkling rays,
The sky grew pale,
The sea was wrapped in softest blue
And snowy wavelets dimpled on the shore.
Then to my spirit spoke a voice
Clear and serene.
If this is Life and Life is Love
Then give me life, that I may live and love.
But as it came it passed away—
Elusive, swift, infallible—
And earth was clasped within the clutches of a
black, impetuous night.
The night wind moaned as though the gods
Of nature were dead;
The stars blinked faintly in the darkened space
And gray clouds mocked me in fantastic haste;
The sea roared as though some unknown demon
Woke that kingdom from its depth.
One would think the Beings of Creation
Into oblivion had leapt.
Through all these changing scenes I stood
Unmoved!
Again that voice spoke unto me:
If thou must live — Begone!
Cast thou thy lot among the warriors of this Earth.
And let thy light be seen across the World.
It was a dream — a sweet, sad dream.

attempt for a permanent cure.
In women the womb and the breasts are always a source of trouble. At the birth of a child the womb of the mother is frequently injured. In nursing her baby the breasts becomes a vulnerable spot. Because of these irritations, cancer frequently develops.
Any woman who observes a lump in the breast, no matter how small, should consult her physician. It may be cancer.
In women any persistent bleeding, or blood-tinged watery discharge, should be looked upon with suspicion, and expert medical opinion sought as to its origin and its treatment. Cancer of the womb gives these early signs.
The rectum is that part of the intestines that retains bulky waste material and undigested parts of food. There it stays until evacuated from the body. It is thus subject to constant irritations and inflammations, and these are always excitants of cancer.
An increasing constipation passage of blood or mucus from the rectum, an over- offensive odor to the bowel evacuations are all signs that need expert opinion and treatment.
A radical operation for cancer of the rectum gives a cure if the procedure is performed early before the cancer spreads.
Cancer occurs in many other parts of the body such as the skin, nose and throat; but those I have dwelt upon are the most frequent.
The conviction of medical science today is—that a reduction in deaths from cancer will follow the public education of the early symptoms and prompt treatment when so discovered.
Does the drop in the number of marchers-in the Ku Klux Klan parade in Washington from 33,000 on 40,000 last year to 13,101 by actual count this year mean loss of business for the cotton mills?
