Editor Fred R. Moore
Designated for Alderman
Fred R. Moore, editor of The New York Age, was designated for the Republican nomination for Alderman of the Nineteenth Aldermanic District by the members of the County Committee at a meeting held in the clubrooms of the Central Republican Club Monday night. Sidney Louls, former candidate for Municipal Court judge, placed Mr. Moore's name in nomination. The nomination was seconded by the Rev. Samuel Bolden. Attorney Myles Paige's name was placed in nomination by Corneius Jackman, causing somewhat of a furore. Assemblyman Abraham Grenthal said that he would not stand for the designation of Mr. Paige, for the reason that Mr. Paige had never come to him to acquaint him with the fact that his name was to be placed in nomination. In reply to this, Mr. Paige said that, if he were a member of the club, he would never come to any leader asking for an office. "This community," he said, "is populated by a majority of my people, and I, as their representative, have the right to be a candidate without the consent of any white man."
Mr. Paige then asked those who had placed his name in nomination to withdraw it, and Editor Moore then received the votes of the entire convention on technical grounds.

Dancer Held in Bail, Charged With Abandoning Her Six-Months-Old Boy
Mrs. Rose Shepard Left Infant With Woman for Few Hours, According to Police, but Never Returned
Charged with abandoning her six-months-old child, Robert, Mrs. Rose Shepard, 26, a dancer, living at 321 West Fifty-ninth street, was held in $1,000 bail for the Grand Jury when arraigned before Magistrate Weil in Harlem Court.
According to the police, Mrs. Shepard brought her child to the home of Mrs. Mary Reilly, janitress, of 254 East 105th street, on April 15 last. She requested Mrs. Reilly to look after her child for a few hours, as she wanted to visit some friends who lived in West Harlem.
Mrs. Shepard failed to return and Mrs. Reilly, after caring for the child for a few days, notified the police. The child was sent to the foundling ward in Bellevue Hospital and a short time later committed to the New York Child Nursery, where it now is.
Last Tuesday Mrs. Shepard, learning that her child had been sent to Bellevue Hospital, went to the hospital and was referred to Mrs. Butler of the Department of Public Charities. Mrs. Butler in turn notified the police and Detectives Lynch and McLaughlin of the East 194th street station hurried down and arrested Mrs. Shepard while she was in conversation with Mrs. Butler.

Mrs. Shepard, according to the detectives, explained that she had no intention of abandoning her child. She knew Mrs. Reilly, she said, and had left the child with her because she had secured a position to rehearse with a show and was obliged to travel with the show. She told the detectives she was obliged to secure employment because her husband had left her. The police say that Mrs. Shepard has two other children who are in institutions.
Negro, in Speech, Welcomes Lindbergh
HOSTON, July 25.—Negro military officers were in the front line when Washington, D. C., welcomed Lindbergh; Negro policemen and civilians played an important part in New York's celebration of his coming, but it remained for Boston to place a Negro man on the program to speak when the viking of the air was given a tremendous reception at the arena last Friday evening.
This reception, at which Atty. Charles William M. Williams, clerk of the Juvenile Court, was one of the speakers, together with Gov. Alvin T. Fuller, Mayor Malcolm E. Nichols, Edwin C. Johnson, vice-president of the Chamber of Commerce; F. Lauriston Bullard of the Boston "Globe" and Carl W. Johnson, royal vice-consul of Sweden, came at the climax of a tributary fealty, the liko of which has never before been accorded a conquering hero by the people of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts.

Excursionists Riot on Sinking Boat
Nearly 1,000 Saved From Death in River Near Baltimore
BALTIMORE. July 24. With nearly a thousand excursionists aboard—some of them "in the act of rioting"—and a leak in her afterhold that gradually got beyond control of the pumps, the bay steamship Majestic early today won a four-mile race up the Parapasco River, regained a Baltimore dock and safely landed passengers and crew. An hour and a half later she settled to the bottom of the harbor, with only the stack and top of the pilot house showing. A check-up accounted for every one of the 950 persons aboard—959 Negro excursionists, W. E. Walton, white owner of the ship, and the crew of thirty, including seven white officers. What caused the night is not known, and Captain Fred A. Travers refused to comment upon the leak, except to say: "The leak was in the afterhold. I'll tell you that much. But there are some other things about it you will never know. I have a good idea what it was and what caused it."
The Majestic left her pier at 1:10 a'clock this morning on a regular "moonlight excursion." being due back at about 5 a. m. Capitain Travers said he made his regular inspection before the ship left. After proceeding some distance toward the Chesapeake Bay, he said he turned the wheel over to the first mate and went to his cabin.
The mate, Alonzo Dean, was in charge until Fort Carroll, several miles down the harbor, was reached on the return trip, the captain said, when, "at about 4:30 a.m., while we were off Fort Carroll, he came to my cabin and told me that the passengers were in the act of rioting. I went immediately to the pilot house and ordered full speed ahead so as to get-to our pier before the fight became too bad.
"A few minutes later." Captain Travers said, "Mr. Walton came into the pilot house and told me the
C. STEBER'S SENTENCE REDUCED TO 10 MONTHS IN PRISON
Leniency Shown Printer Who Made Counterfeit Revenue Stamps for Bootleggers Because of His Previous Good Record
Charles Steber, Harlem printer, was not sentenced to eighteen months in Atlanta Penitentiary, as reported, when he was tried and convicted in Federal Court recently on a charge of possessing counterfeit internal revenue stamps. Instead, Judge Harry B. Anderson sentenced him to a year and a day in Atlanta Penitentiary, but, following a plea for leniency by his attorney and Mrs. Steber, sentence was reduced to ten months in the Westchester County Prison at East View, N. Y. Steber, whose print shop was at 83 West 134th street, was indicted by a Federal Grand Jury June 3 and was admitted to $5,000 ball June 14 by Judge John Clark Knox, in Federal Court, at which time he pleaded not guilty. Boud was furnished by the Equity Casualty Company.
On July 6 Steber pleaded guilty as charged and sentence of a year and a day was imposed by Judge Anderson. His attorney, M. Michael Edelstein, 111 Broadway, accompanied by Mrs. Steber, conferred with Judge Anderson. Attorney Edelstein stressed the fact that it was Steber's first criminal offense of any kind and that, because of poor business, he had yielded to the temptation of printing counterfeit revenue stamps for the liquor trade.
Mrs. Steber pleaded for a lighter sentence, asking that the place
ship had sprung a leak. I immediately ordered all the pumps started and for a while they seemed to be holding their own." Later, he continued, the engineer reported that the water was getting ahead of the pumps.
Captain Travers said he headed the Majestic for the nearest plier. When this was reached, he said, the excitement was so great that fifteen minutes were required to get tied up.

Mrs. Letitia Ernestine Brown Alleges She Has Been Common-Law Wife of Carleton Curtis for Past Seventeen Years
Alleging that she has been the common-law wife of Carleton Curtis, a retired millionaire and prominent New York clubman, Mrs. Letitia Ernestine Brown, of Harlem and Freeport, L. L., has entered suit in the Supreme Court before Justice William Harmon Black for separation, with counsel fees of $20,000 and alimony of $250 a week.
In papers filed in the unusual action, Mrs. Browk through her attorney, Richard E. Carey, 2376 Seventh avenue, says Curtis is worth over $10,000,000 and has a yearly income of $1,000,000. He is a large stockholder, she says, in the Fifth Avenue Bank, is the proprietor of the Hotel Devon, part owner of Aeolian Hall.
Mr. Curtis' attorney, Harold H. Corbin, who is associated with Max D. Steuer, 11 Broadway, denies that the case has "any foundation in fact for discussion."
It is admitted, however, that Mr. Curtis knows Mrs. Brown; that he has given her over $100,000; that he purchased a home for her on Colonial avenue, Freeport, L. L., and that he established a trust fund for her with his bank which paid her $1,200 monthly.
HIS ATTORNEY WONT DISCUSS CASE.
So Attorney Corbin's statement that there is nothing to discuss goes almost beside the fact.
facts appear to have placed it, and result in a victory for Mrs. Brown. Through Bonlin's National Detail, Bureau-scores of affidavits are said to have been procured from white and colored people in Freeport and elsewhere to support the woman's contention that she has been the common-law wife of Curtis for seventeen years. Mrs. Brown is said to be 24 years old now and, if that age is correct, she was a girl of 17 years when she first met him. Curtis is said to be about 60.
Attorney Carey, a Negro attorney well known in Harlem, is confident that, when all of the facts are known, the case will be lifted out of the blackmail class, into which a partial revelation of the
Revue Performer's Case Continued
Clarence Robinson Admits He Attacked Girl in Jealous Rage
Clarence Robinson, 27, revive cabaret and stage performer and producer, was arrested last week by Detective Banerschmidt of the West 135th street station on complaint of his alleged sweetheart and colleague, Cynthia Curtis, 125 West 133d street, who charged that Robinson beat and kicked her, discoloring her eye, and tore and cut up $700 worth of her clothes. At first, Robinson pleaded not guilty to both charges.
Robinson was arraigned on charges of disorderly conduct and malicious mischief before Magistrate Vitale in Heights Court on Tuesday and Saturday of last week. On the first charge he was held in $200 ball and found guilty and given a suspended sentence.
On the second charge ball was set at $300 and the case adjourned until September 5. Magistrate Vitale get this date to allow Robinson time to pay Miss Curtis the cost of her damaged wardrobe. He paid her $75 of the amount in Court Saturday morning.
On the witness stand Robinson revealed that he had been living with Miss Curtis for two years and had bought the clothes that he admitted he tried to destroy. Miss Curtis denied this. He declared that he became enraged when he learned Miss Curtis was receiving the attentions of another man. He lost his temper. Robinson stated, and struck her Sunday morning, June 17, at 130th street and Lenox avenue, and in fit of jealousy went home and tore and cut up dresses, wraps, suits, underwear, stockings, furs and beads belonging to Miss Curtis. Aside from testimony of his good character, Robinson received "a lucky break" due mainly to the efforts of his attorney, Harold J. Selgel, 50 Broad street. Following his altercation with Miss Curtis, Robinson shifted his residence to 370 St. Nicholas avenue.

facts appear to have placed it, and result, in a victory for Mrs. Brown. Through Bonlin's National Detective. Bureau-scores. of affidavits are said to have been procured from white and colored people in Freeport and elsewhere to support the woman's contention that she has been the common-law wife of Curtis for seventeen years. Mrs. Brown is said to be 24 years old now and, if that age is correct, she was a girl of 17 years when she first met him. Curtis is said to be about 60.
Who is Mrs. Letitia Ernestine Brown? What does she look like? Where does she now reside?
These are the questions on every tongue in Harlem. Few have been found who know her, but those who have been interviewed verify the statement, that for years she had large sums of money at her disposal.
More remarkable yet is the assertion that she is not any too pleasing to look at; not the type of woman with which the movies always associate retired millionaires.
Her features are apparently of the pure-blooded Negro type; not the Spanish or high-yellow vampirish type retired millionaires are supposed to pursue when they cross the color-line for sexual amusement.
Her whereabouts are known only to her attorney and to private detectives guarding her. Photos of her are unavailable.
CURTIS BITTER.
Whatever Mrs. Brown was to Mr. Curtis for sixteen or seventeen years, her present status in his eyes is not so good.
"This suit is merely an attempt to blackmail me," he says in his reply. "She wants me to pay money to hide the fact that I knew her."
He submits copies of letters which he states were written to her by a Garland Patton, showing that in 1925 and 1926, when he (Curtis) was giving her money she was supporting Patton and took him to France with her. Patton's wife, charges Curtis, sued Mrs. Brown for alienation of her husband's affections. This suit was settled by payment of $1,500, he says.
"Although I knew she was not what is called a 'good' woman," states the millionaire, "I did not think she was as bad as this until I put detectives on her trail, this year."
Curtis declares that Mrs. Brown is "a confirmed alcoholic" and drank copiously of raw whiskey. She also passed checks when she knew there were no funds in her account to meet them, he says, and then came to him for help.

Leroy Leaks. 25. laborer. 29 West Ninety-ninth street, was arrested at his home late Sunday night by Detectives Moore. Boyden and Bransfield of the West 135th street station on suspicion of being the murderer of Joseph Porterick, white. 32. a grocery clerk employed in the store of Dresner and Shapiro at 200 West 140th street, where he was mysteriously shot on the night of March 28. Leaks was arraigned in Homicide Court Monday.
At the time of the shooting considerable mystery surrounded the episode, the assailant leaving no clue. There was no witness to the shooting and no one heard any shots. Four boys saw Poricker come out of the store holding his left breast, which a bullet from a small calibre revolver had pierced, passing through his body and coming out at the right shoulder. The boys heard no shots. Poricker dropped dead on the stoop and his body was carried back into the store by Walter Braithwaite, 327 Edgecombe avenue Dr. Johnston arrived from Columbus Hospital and pronounced the man dead. For three months the detectives were completely baffled. Every clue was run down, but frultlessly.
The entire neighborhood was finely combed in an effort to trap the slayer and janitors and superintendents in every house in the block where the shooting occurred were questioned. The four boys who saw Porlicker stagger out of the store were taken to the police station and grilled, but no evidence was obtained.
The money in the cash register, 327.55, had not been touched. Sylvia Porlicker, the dead man's wife, was questioned at her home, 371 Beckman avenue, the Bronx, and she declared that she never knew her husband to have an enemy.
Someone said they saw a man leave the store in a taxi, and another declared that they had seen a man run from the store at the time of the shooting. Several men were arrested, but none could be identified.
With the coming of July, however, the detectives' tireless efforts were rewarded with a definite clue. Leak's arrest followed.

All Charges Against Sweet Defendants Quashed
DETROIT, July 25.—All charges against Dr. Ossian H. Sweet, his wife and eight others in connection with the slaying of Leon Bremler, white, during a race riot in front of the Sweet home on Sept. 5, 1925, were nolle pressed Thursday.
The rioting resulted from opposition to the Sweet family moving into a section of the city where they were unwelcomed by the white residents.
Clarence Darrow, Chicago lawyer, and Arthur Garfield Hays were engaged as defense counsel. The jury disagreed after forty-six hours' deliberation and a new trial was ordered.
Instead of proceeding with a second trial with all the defendants together, Henry Sweet, a brother, was tried subsequently and acquitted.
Due to lack of evidence, the complaint and charge of robbery against Raleigh Luckey, 100 West 141st street, was dismissed by the Grand Jury in General Sessions. Louis Davidson, 1016 Bryant avenue, was assaulted and robbed in the hallway of 230 West 141st street on Saturday evening. July 2, by two unidentified colored men who ran after attacking Davidson. After reaching the street, Davidson caught and held Luckey, who was returning from work.

more light on the case. Judge J. D. Campbell has revealed that Hall had unburdened himself to him for the melancholy which preceded his insanity. According to the man's story, he had incurred the enmity of the Ku Klux Klan in Virginia by being instrumental in saving the life of a friend of his who had been threatened with lynching. He then fled to Sea Bright, he said, but after three weeks the alleged persecution began and he began to be in constant fear of his own life. He said he had been told to leave town. Judge Campbell says he soothed the man somewhat by telling him that he had no reason to be afraid; but later in the day he developed the symptoms of insanity, and it was necessary to place physical restraint upon him. After the violence of the first attack, Hall became somewhat rational and expressed his willingness to be placed in an institution.

THE FEMINIST VIEWPOINT
JUST a lifeless bull, pup. Yes, one made of wood and painted white and black. The kind with
and painted white and black. The kind with rollers for feet. An automatic "pusher" attached to a long lead was the thing that made his head move from side to side and caused his brazen eyes to open and close. All in all, he looked vicious and wise. Yet this bull pup gave her pleasure.
The three or four hot days of last week made many of us seek the beaches and parks for relief. At night the bus was the life-saving means of transportation and pleasure. At 12gth street and Seventh avenue—one of those scorching nights—a white woman got on a bus. In her arms was a clumsy, wooden bull pup.
This woman, young and attractive and well-dressed, gave that pup as much attention as the average person is willing to give a cichl. When she left the bus, at Thirty-fourth street and Fifth avenue, she put the object on the pavement and started pulling it down the street. All the time she said "sweet northings to her pet."
We would suggest that she, and all other persons similarly affected, would wake up, adopt some little homeless child, then lavish love and attention on it. The return in the end might be more worth while—T. E. B.

Now that we are spending time at the beaches and out in the wide-open spaces, we are subject to be bitten by the sun's rays, which result in tan. In order to protect your skin, before going out cover with a light coat of vanishing cream and dust with powder. When you come in from the sunlight, use cold water compresses, with a teaspoonful of alcohol in the water, and apply a soothing powder when the face is dry. Do not rub the skin with a harsh towel.
A simple lotion for sunburn and freckles contains equal parts of glycerin, peroxide and witch hazel. It should be applied at night before retiring and be allowed to remain on the skin.
A word is due here in regard to glycerin. It forms a part of many lotions and is, among other things, a solvent for coloring matters, hence its efficacy in sunburn and

freckles lotions. Impure and undiluted glycerin is harmful. It dries the skin and causes various troubles that result from dry skins. A teaspoonful of pure glycerin in a pint of water forms a very satisfactory lotion for various purposes. It softens without greasing, allays itching and irritation, makes the skin light, supple, soft and glossy, and serves as an antiseptic. But be sure you have pure glycerin. There are many impure forms on the market and it is their presence in so many cheap creams and skin foods that makes these preparations harmful.
Nighties Coming Back in Style in Paris
PARIS, July 23.—Pajamas are going out and girls, it appears, are going back to the old reliable nighties.
Nighties a la mode are in every fashion shop and, once well started, any change goes quickly here, where a hard day's work for the woman of fashion is a round of the dressmakers.
Pajamas, like short skirts, are much less fashionable now that any one can have them. The chic woman wants to become a leader by having or doing something different.
Nighties when worn grew longer and longer as skirts steadily shortened. In the present fashion trend, however, as skirts lengthen nighties are shorter
The nighttowns are elaborate with lace; they often have insets and appliques of stunning material that girls have always known that girls have always known.

British Journal Fights Color Bar in Behalf of American Negro Artists
British Journal Fights Color Bar in Behalf of American Negro Artists
Amsterdam News, Through Another One of Its Bona Fide European Correspondents, Again First to Give Other Side of Heated Question
My comment at this time is not very much as to the action taken in the VARIETY ARTISTE FEDERATION, but I am making a thorough investigation in records to this matter and will state my views on the subject a little later on.
However, I do regret that such a thing has come up and I personally consider it very unfortunate that the Negro or color question is addressed into this matter, but of course there are many sides to it, and there is nothing to do but wait and see results will happen.
I must give lots and lots of credit to the Encore and their staff, and this matter up at once, or as soon as the first articles were published in the daily papers, and it has been a tradition. I have always read this theatrical magazine and, being one of the best papers ever here, they have always been most fair to Negro artists. I am a letter of appreciation from any of the colored papers in America could be highly appreciated because the Encore deserves much credit for the finest Englishmen. I have ever met
It is through Encore that the Variety Artiste Federation are trying to retract what they have said about the Negro artists and in their most articles they are trying to say that they are not referring to all African artists, regardless of color. Having just arrived in England, it all is new to me, so until I find out what it's all about I won't say any more.
European theatrical correspondent the New York Amsterdam News, Albemarle Theatre, c/o 4 Harmony Kings, Leicester Square, London, England.
(From The Encore, London, Eng.)
The Yellow Peril has been supplanted. We have now a new danger dancing like a Damoclean sword over our heads. The whole Variety profession, according to its official sponsors, is viewing with timorous apprehension the approach of vast hordes of Negroes, coming to ravage Variety's fair realm. In place of a Yellow Peril we have got a Black Peril, international polity not being within our scope or understanding, we will make no comment on the Yellow Scare. As far as the Black Peril is concerned, we here and now label it as the most utter unfortunate tosh. The picture of V. A. F. officials in sackcloth and shoes dismally wailing to a Government Department a feremel of the wore attendant on a negro invasion is really affecting. Let us hence to shed a sympathetic tear.
And then let us get down to plain, stark, starring facts, as we usually do. Let us ask, first of all why there is no official outcry against the White Peril? There are in our midst busy agents and boots who literally comb the continent of Europe for nuts suitable for British Variety. Were the V. A. F. consistent it would appeal to the Government to introduce aliens into our halls, aliens who are camping the places of Britishers. Where the V. A. F. consistent it would nail to its flagpost the word, "Britain for the British" and perdition for every other nationality. But, unfortunately, as we have so many, many times had to point out, the V. A. F. is not always uniform in its principles. At times its officials act with almost Solomonic wisdom. At times they show a decided lack of menace of values, and common understanding. This is one of the times when all appreciation of proportionate estimation seems to be lost to sight.
Our first point, then, is that no is no official objection to Americans. Austrians or any other European nationality; a very sensitive point of view, too. There is no objection to performers from the States, either, so long as the complexion is of your authorized by the V. A. F. objection, therefore, must be present in the performers' order. If this is not correct, permission of the Federation's ready officials will issue a disclaimer, should there be no contradiction in the official organ we shall take for granted that what has really happened is that the V. A. F. has no black fever, and got it badly. The Negro, because he is a Negro, must be banned. This certainly

does not come very well from a country that was the first to abolish Negro slavery. We really should love to form a committee consisting of Layton and Johnstone, Scott and Whaley, Williams and Taylor, The Harmony Kings and a few more colored gentlemen we are proud to know, and ask the officials responsible to to come along and explain to them the why and the wherefore.
Common-sense tells us that no management would put more than one colored act on any bill. Common-sense tells us that, with this one act, there must be seven or more artery acts to carry out this act; this is a very good thing for Variety. Even should there be more than one colored act on a bill, there need never be any reason to fear a preponderance of Negro performers in this or any other country, for the simple reason that the area is poor and ground run. We will grant that *Blackbirds* was a terrific success. For no other reason than that it was a success will it be possible for any other colored company to make a success. The standard is set. Anything less artery acts will not be capable of "Blackbirds" is foredoomed. One might conclude from the state of fright the V. A. F. has got itself into that to put on a "Blackbirds" show was just a matter of collecting a few colored performers and carrying on. Neither the act nor the act of simple as to swallow that. The truth is that Variety is cos-
impolitan and, further, always has been. In all its history there never was a time when it was entirely free from the foreign element; and a good thing it never was. The Encore's view is that, so long as an artist can put over a good clean clever original work, he will enjoy his nationality is. The Encore's view is that any Negro who has an act that is likely to prove a box-office attraction should be accorded a warm welcome to this country, if only in his capacity as a Variety missionary. Free trade in artists is as essential as free trade in art. If it is not free trade in art, then excluded the best that other countries could send it.
We strongly advise the V. A. P. to drop this stupid business altogether. There is no danger of England being overrun by swarms of colored performers. There is no danger of the police being involved in music births will all put on all black shows. If the V. A. P. wants to do the profession a real service it should drop the Negro question and commence a crusade having for its aim the return of the scores of British acts that are in foreign markets. We welcome here as abroad properly handled. In addition, it would make the importation of colored acts unnecessary.
"Fighting Love" Will Be at the Douglas Theatre
VIVID STORY OF THE SAHARA DESERT TO RUN FOR THREE DAYS
The attempt by Italy to regain the lost province of Tripolitana and the machinations of a rascally territorial governor who plotted against his own countrymen, are the main features of "Fighting Love," which Nils Olaf Christander directed for Cecil B. DeMille and which will be on view at the Douglas Theatre on Saturday next. "Fighting Love" should be one of the screen's most unusual pictures, for the five principal players in the play have almost equally important roles demanding of them the most virulent characterizations possible.
The film story was adapted from a novel by Rosita Forbes and was prepared for the screen by Boulah Marie Dix, noted novelist and scenarist. Jetta Goudal is the star and Victor Varconi and Henry B. Walthall are featured in her support.

Drake and Walker Score With Band, Sharing the Honors Monday
True to its psediction, Drake and Walker's new show opened to a record audience at the Lafayette Theatre on Monday and was received with an ovation. It's a long time since a revue evoked the laughter and the apause that Henry Drake's vehicle did. The show is properly divided into three parts. The first consists of a miniature musical comedy entitled "The Thompson Family." It is a story of runaway lovers, an ante father, two detective detectives and a heart-breaking vampire. In this little comedy, Drake Mabley, Goehl-Rodriguez and Jackie Mabley go through some of the funniest stage "business" that it has been the good fortune of audiences to see and hear.
During the unfolding of the plot there are specialties by Jackie Mabley, Ethel Walker, Jimmie Baskette, Baby Mack and Johnnie Dandridge. The Mountain Jackie had to respond to six cails for encores.
The second part of the program is taken up by the band—an aggregation of twelve musicians who, in the opinion of many, form one of the best colored bands on the stage today. Drake leaves in his previous antics added considerably to the effectiveness and enjoyment of the numbers.
The third part of the program is a cabaret scene which is the hit of a show already filled with hits. In this part the chorus shows off to the best advantage. There are forty members in the cast and every one does splendid work.
The picture part of the program consists of the official Dempsey-Starkes in "The picture horse." The fight pictures are very clear and interesting. The fatal seventh round is shown in both regular and slow motion. Every blow by the fighters is clearly shown.
THE Clare Smith show, now in rehearsal, will open in Washington at the Howard Theatre week of August 14 and then will play the Royal Theatre the following week.

Interesting Items of Negro Performers in Europe—On Trying to Bar Negro Artists—Hutchinson Making Good—Lord and Lady Mountbatten Helping Us—Views of Race Prejudice in England
BY IVAN H. BROWNING, London, Eng.
RUCKER & PERRIN are a very big success in the English variety halls and are now playing the provinces. They have been quite busy since leaving Blackbirds. Perrin's Chinese impersonation is especially interesting to the English. They are returning to the West End in London again, shortly.
AL JOHNS, the well-known American composer and entertainer, is still in Paris and has just finished a very beautiful number entitled 'Argos.' He is proudly interred in New York, this summer's hit in 'BONAS AMYERS.' Monseur John's health is much improved now and I enjoyed several afternoons with him at his little hotel at Boulevard de Clichy. He seems perfectly contented and happy living in Paris.
LAYTON & JOHNSTONE have returned to England after a short stay in New York and are filling engagements in various cities. Mr. Layton is particularly interested in New York and I presume Mr. Johnstone also, but the papers haven't mentioned it. This seems all wrong. Mr. Johnstone is indeed the great asset and part of the celebrated team of Layton and Johnstone.
BUDDY GILMORE, the well-known drummer, and wife, have sailed for South America from Paris and after engagements there will return to New York.
The Four Harmony Klings a symphony in color, as announced on the programme, is the celebrated Negro quartette. They are four Negro singers, one from New York and three from a time and thorough vocal orchestra and succeed in retaining each his own personality in a choir which is a perfect unity. They put some picture, although their ministry is in too large a range, which is their outward appearance, one wonderful vocal changes. The humorous interpretation does not destroy their charms. They are a classical number worth hearing as well and even the point of low comedy, of grimness, of eminence, nor the tone. They are a great company of singers, a quartette comparable to the Russian Quartette, and I but they saw the "Chauve Souris" in New York. There is great style in their work, without parade and showiness, and they were enclosed and enclosed.
FROM "The Carneet in the Semaine":
We prefer the Negro quartette. It is harmonious and exotic. It sings some some words on the comic side unless I don't understand the words. The words are on the comic side, and I don't understand the words. The words are on the comic side, and I don't understand the words. The cat concert, curiously orchestrated according to their voices, and for example, "Dinah," which is well liked and known. And look at that Negro all kinds of musical similarities (affinities) between musical Negroes and the Russians. An enjoyable quarter of an hour indeed.
The Harmony Kings are all four decapitated by their stiff white collars. All four multicolored dressed in beige trousers, white beads and black sleeves, which we do not understand but which in their intact mystery are the symbols. The Harmony Kings modulated, which roll forth and vibrate in an uncompatible art. We get the impression of unexpected muscle, far away harmony. We think on closing the mouth of the singing of silences. It is appealing and profoundly touching. We feel the sound of the music of undeclared inactivity. In truth, these Harmony Kings and it is agreed that we thank the Empire for revealing them to us.
FROM "Le Carret de la Semaine": We prefer the Negro quartet, some melodies which I think are on the words. The words are simple and all contain variably well-known example, "dibna", which well-liked from among these Negroes. He is no all kinds of musical smallities (taffy and the Russiana.

"Africana" Continues
Down at Daly's Theatre
Show Drew Bumper House
Last Saturday Night and
Outlook for Long Stay
Seems to Be Good
With its many changes, which seem to find favor at the hands of those witnessing the performances, "Africana," with Ethel Waters, Glen and Jenkins, Snow Fisher and a host of other well known people, ended its second week Saturday night with the standing room only sign occupying a prominent position.
Judging from the outlook as noted by our reviewers, the show is apparently good for a long run down at Daly's. There have been certain changes which added to the piece and from the manner in which Miss Waters and her company is being received one would be included to admit that Mr. Dancer knew what he was doing when he got out the scissors and shears and also added other parts.
Where before the performances ended about a quarter past ten, a full two-hour revue is the reward to these making the trip to Daly's.

This spectacular event gives promise of many thrills, for there has been an unprecedented rush on the part of scores to enter the contest which holds so many hundreds of dollars for its prizes.
This season's contest is in a different form than heretofore. Instead of one affair, the management has decided to hold an elimination contest every Saturday night, with inducing prizes to the

Gilda Gray surprised a great many persons when "Aloua of the South Seas" was unanimously called the best first picture a screen novice had ever made. Now comes her second, "Calareu," to the Lincoln Theatre, and the former idol of the music balls again proves that she knows as much about films as she does about dancing—and believe you me—that's plenty! Gilda isn't the first terpsichorean exponent to attempt adventuring in cinemaland but she does stand alone in having made a running start and followed it up with another wow!
As in "Alomar," Miss Gray is again surrounded by a better than average cast, Tom Moore and Chester Conkin are featured and with two such "trumpers" as these the star found herself receiving excellent support. Mona Palma, one of the Paramount junior stars, Jack Egan, William Harrigan and Charles Byer all contribute fine performances.

WON'T MAKE MUCH DIFFERENCE IF YOU WILL ONLY VIEW "BEWARE OF WIDOWS"
Laughter is declared by leading medics to be the greatest cure of mental and physical ills. By this deduction anyone attending "Beware of Widows" starring Laura La Plante at the Roosevelt Theatre, now will get more benefit from its hour and a half of entertainment than from a dozen highly expensive visits to the doctor.
There is an irresistible charm about. Miss La Plante, a very beautiful blonde, with deep dimples that make her eyes sparkle. She is endowed with a delicious and rare comedy sense and is a finished actress.
Bryant Washburn is coming back into his own and is excellent in the role opposite Miss La Plante. Walter Hiers (who can forget him?) is with us again in his heavyweight and light comedy.

Murder and mystery, mutiny and po-death rode into harbor Friday night aboard schooner Kingsway, which recently made round-trip between New York and the Gca, during which time Earl L. Battice, ship port, Miss., is said to have killed his wife, mutinied, the mate to have met death the captain to have been poisoned. The a taken off the ship last Wednesday when Barnegat. He was indicted and the case ing yesterday.
Murder and mystery, mutiny and poison, jealousy and death rode into harbor Friday night aboard the four-masted schooner Kingsway, which recently made an eight-months round-trip between New York and the Gold Coast of Africa, during which time Earl L. Battice, ship's cook, of Gulffport, Miss., is said to have killed his wife, the crew to have mutinied, the mate to have met death mysteriously, and the captain to have been poisoned. The alleged slayer was taken off the ship last Wednesday when she appeared off Barnegat. He was indicted and the case came up for hearing yesterday.
Battice cooked for the crew almost until the trade ship docked with her cargo of cocon beans. Fred Mortimer, white, ship's mate, who was the original "Mr. Pike" in Jack London's novel, "The Mutiny of the Elenora," is said to have died of "natural causes" at sea on June 23, while the ship was on her way to Barbadoes. Both Mortimer and Battice's wife, Lucia, were buried at sea.
Waldemar Karl Badke, German donkey engleman of the schooner, together with Battice, was taken off the ship under arrest by Assistant U. S. Attorneys Kenneth L. Simpson and George L. Mintzer, who are investigating the case. It is said the attorneys will endeavor to indict Badke on charges of mutiny and adultery, the latter charge growing out of Badke's alleged immoral relations with Badice's young wife, whom the husband is said to have slashed with a razor in a jealous rage. Both men will be arraigned tomorrow before United States Commissioner Garrett W. Cotter. Five members of the crew are being held in the Tombs as material witnesses, although probably no charge will be made against them.
F. E. Lawry, captain of the Kingsway, a freighter of the African and Eastern Trading Company, did not sail with the ship when she left New York, but joined her at Pensacola, Fl. when her first master, Captain Chase, was taken seriously ill at San Juan, Forto Rico. The cook deserted at San Juan, and the only substitute available was Battice, who refused to go unless they permitted his wife to go with him.
Captain Lawry and the crew were at odds from the start of the voyage, he said. "The crew looked upon me as an interloper," he asserted. "They refused to take orders from me." The mate, Mortimer, gave his own orders." Lawry said, and ignored those of his superior." The captain's laconic explanation of the mate's death was that he had "broken down and died."
Battice is said to have murdered his wife long before this happened. At his arraignment in Fed.

Theater goers all over the country admire the beautiful hair of Miss Katheryne A. Boyd of the J. Lawrence Criner Company. Miss Boyd says: "I often wondered how other women kept their hair looking so smooth and glossy until I started using Improved Pluko Hair Dressing. Then I knew the secret. This delicately fragranced, fine textured preparation is easy to use, keeps my scalp healthy, and makes my hair soft, straight, silky and glossy."

gun, but none of the crew had any, but he managed to borrow a razor from a sailor, telling him that he was going to use it to shave. He met his wife on deck on the evening of February 5, he said, "You love this fellow, don't you?" he asked. "Yes," the wife replied coolly. He then drew the razor from his pocket, he narrated, and slashed the woman across the throat, cutting her from ear to ear. Captain Lawry, in the absence of a doctor, treated the woman, and in spite of her wound, she lived for six days in a state of cellulium, screaming almost incessantly until she died. The captain said he endevoured to patch up the wound with adhesive tape, but that the crude attention she received was unavailing.
Before her death, Mrs. Battice signed an ante-morten statement, marked with her blood, which charged that "Just because he had a girl in Porto Rico he wanted to get rid of me." Battice was captured and put in chains, but he escaped and jumped overboard; then begged to be rescued when menaced by a shark. He was put in irons the second time and again he freed himself, and the captain found him wandering about the deck. The alleged murder took place off the Gold Coast and the ship put into Monrovia, in Liberia. The American Consul there told Cap-

tain Lawry that if Battice stood trial, at least four of the crew would have to remain behind as witnesses. As the Kingsway carried only eight men., Captain Lawry decided to bring Battice to New York for trial.
In the meantime an African cook named Congo had been engaged to replace Battice. "A few weeks later." Captain Lawry said, "I swelled to twice my natural size and had to take strychnine to save my life." He believes he was poisoned. Congo's cooking poisoned the rest of the crew also. it is said. Battice was then released and put back at his job.
The penalty for murder on the high seas is hanging. The complaint against Battice is taken from the old common law

Mr. Phillips has all along shown the highest regard for the members of the I. B. P. O. E. of W. and did much to bring about harmony among the ranks of warring Negro factions. Mr. Wilson and Mr. Howard both testified to the issuing of an order calling away the convention from New York because of that injunction.

After listening to all the arguments, Judge Taylor said that on the evidence produced he would like to grant an immediate and absolute vacating of the injunction.
142nd STREET
However, in view of the fact that Justice Morchauser had issued the original order, he would refer the matter to that judge for final adjudication; he said. But he did issue an order making the injunction inoperative until August 28. And thus New, Yorkers have at last met the demands of the grant exalted ruler. COMMITTEE SEEKS COOPERATION OF PUBLIC.
With the assurance now that the convention in all its details will be in New York, the local convention committee, handicapped with its legal troubles, finds it now necessary to appeal to the New York public for whole-hearted support in making the twenty-eighth grand lodge session of the Elks a success. The public is asked to realize that some 200,000 people will have to be housed during the week of August 20, and the people are requested to send in their names and addresses to the chairman of the housing committee, Joseph W. Albright, at convention headquarters, 160 West 129th street, stating how many visitors they can accommodate. Police Sergeant Samuel

ST. LOUIS, Mo. July 25—Aaron Malone, former head of Poro College, famed institution of beauty culture, was named defendant in a suit for $2,500 filed in Circuit Court Thursday by his former secretary, Mattle Beasley Robinson. She alleges that Malone employed her about a year ago to serve him during his litigation with his wife, Mrs. Annie Pope Turnbo Malone, founder of Poro College.
Miss Robinson says that Mr. Malone agreed to pay her $2,500 and in addition pay her $10 per week for expenses. He paid her the $10 weekly but not the $2,500 she complains. The litigation between the Malones was settled out of court recently. Malone could not be reached for a statement.

In the passing of the Rev. P. J. Sampson, D.D., 90, retired minister of the A.M.E. Church, this church in particular and the city in general has lost one of its most noted characters. Dr. Sampson died at the home of his nieces, Mrs. Caroline Sampson McKinney and Mrs. Elizabeth Sampson Jones, 41 Grand avenue, Jamaica, L. L. on Thursday night, July 14. This is the rectory of St. Stephen's Episcopal Church, of which Rev. William McKinney is
Funeral services were held at the historic Bridge Street A.M.E. Church Monday afternoon, July 18. The Rev. Edward E. Tyler, pastor of the church, acted as master of ceremonies. The sermon was delivered by Dr. Solomon Porter, a pastor of the A.M.E. connection, former U. S. Minister to Liberia, and president of Campbell College. He
was a friend of Dr. Sampson. Ministers from all over the State and New Jersey attended the service. Dr. Sampson was born in Wilmington, N. C., in 1837. His parents were among the few free Negroes in the South at the time. He was educated in the public schools of Cambridge, Mass., and in the course of time was graduated from Conners College, Boston, Mass., in 1836. Dr. Sampson began his life as a public school teacher in Jamaica, L. 1. He was the publisher of the "Colored Citizen" at Cincinnati, Ohio, which he continued as a Negro war policy paper and the close of the war, about
Once he was made assessor to the superintendent of Brown School at Wilmington, N.C. He took an active part by appointment in the reconstruction period, and was later nominated to Congress, but was defeated by the nominate candidate. He was hired in the Treasury Department to offer years. Simpson also practiced law in District Supreme Court, and Justice of a District Court, and a public lecturer on so-called topics, and
called relics of Georgial Seminary at Albany, Pa., and was licensed to work in 1882. Among the many charges which he held was that of the Bethel A. M. E. Church in Henry Park, N. J. where he received for many years prior to his arrival in Jamaica. He was the long elder of the New England conference for nine years. Dr. Sampson was the author of "Common Sense Physiology." "Natural Theology" and "How to Live One Hundred Years." Besides his nieces, Dr. Sampson is survived by two sisters, Mrs. Sesia Dudley and Mrs. Funnie S. Norwood, and several nephews. Interment was in the family plot at the Flushing Cemetery.

Shepard, 62, one of the borough's best known hair dressers and daughter of the late Israel Abbott, a grand master of the Masons of the State of North Carolina, and one of its leading politicians during and after the Reconstruction Period. She died July 16. The Rev. Charles F. Kirton, pastor of the Boyle Memorial A. M. E. Zlon Church, delivered the funeral sermon.
Mrs. Shepard was a native of New Berne, N. C., and came here about thirty-five years ago.
The home in which she died was recently purchased by her daughter, Mrs. Boyer, and had been renovated at great cost. Her death comes after the marriage of her granddaughter several weeks ago.

grandchildren.
Harlem Woman Opens New Establishment in Brooklyn
Mrs. Mary Lane, the well-known undertaker and embalmer, and Mrs. Arneta Penn, who is also a licensed undertaker and embalmer, have opened a funeral parlor and chapel at 123 Duffield street. Mrs. Lane, who is well known in financial affairs, and for her activities in charismatic and church circles in Manhattan, has been in business for over 19 years. She was associated with her late husband, J. Wesley Lane, and at the time of his death decided to continue the business at 112 West 123rd street, New York City. The Brooklyn parlor and chapel is centrally located and is one of the most spacious and best appointed here.
Suit Promises Big Sensation
Prominent White Retired Broker Claimed as Common-Law Husband
Contending that he abandoned her lost January when they were living together in Freeport as husband and wife, Leitlin Ernestine Brown of Harlem applied last week in the Supreme Court, Manhattan, for $2,000 counsel fee and $250 a week alimony, pending the determination of her separation suit against Carlton Curtis, white, a retired real estate operator.
Justice Black took the motion of counsel for the woman under advertisement, as, before the Court may must establish to the satisfaction of the justice that she has a reasonable chance of proving her alleged common-law marriage. Curtis denies the charges and declares the suit "is merely an attempt to blackmail me."
in her complaint the woman calls herself Mrs. Brown and declares that, since November, 1911, she has been using the name at the request of the defendant, who assumed the name of Henry Brown while they were living in Freeport. She alleges he bought a home for her there from which he barred her last winter by changing the locks.
Old Brooklyn Church Trustee Buried
Willis D. Wright, 79, a trustee and former steward of Bridge Street A. M. E. Church, died at his late home, 555 Herkimer street, on Thursday, July 14, after a long period of illness. Funeral services were held at Bridge Street Church Sunday afternoon, July 17. The pastor, Dr. Edward E. Tyler, and Dr. Henry H. Proctor, pastor of Nazarene Congregational Church, delivered eloquent eulogies of the deceased.
Mr. Wright, who was born in Charleston, S. C., was one of oldest and best-known members of this church, having been a member for over forty years. He came to New York about sixty years ago. During the course of the services resolutions were read by members of the various departments of the church.
Mr. Wright is survived by a daughter, Mrs. Lucy Fowlkes. Interment was in the Evergreen Cemetery.
Cop Claims He Was Crowned by Jimmie Allen
James Allen, 26, of No. 114 Troy avenue, Brooklyn, was held without ball for the Grand Jury in the New Jersey Avenue Court in Brooklyn after he waived examination on a charge of assault made by Patrolman Joseph Abowitz of the Brownsville Precinct. Abowitz told the Court Allen hit him on the head at Prospect place and Howard avenue, Brooklyn, on the night of June 30, while Abowitz was taking into custody another man against whom a woman had lodged a complaint. Abowitz shot Allen twice. Both were taken to the hospital. Abowitz is still on sick leave and told the Court he has lost fifteen pounds as a result of the blow on the head. He spent a week in the hospital and is still under treatment.

Jamaica Youngsters Sought Jobs and Decided to Work
Too Light for Heavy Work, They Decided to Split Pay if Superintendent of the Jamaica Post Office Would Put 'Em to Work
Thousands Leave Harlem; Great Exodusto Nearby Suburban Centers
Dodging high rents, congestion and responding to the urge to have a home of their own, it is estimated that more than 15,000 folks have migrated from Harlem during the past 10 years and taken up residence in Jamaica. Corona and other nearby suburban centers, according to Mr. R. O. Gothard, the general manager of the Homeseekers' Service Bureau, 31 East Jackson avenue, Corona, and 189 Globe avenue, Jamaica.
To assist those who want to learn more about what the suburbs of New York have to offer in the way of cheap homes and apartments, the Homeseekers' Service Bureau has opened an elaborate New York office at 210 West 135th street, next door to Western Union. From 9:30 A. M. until 9 P. M. some one will be there to show you actual photographs and give you direct and RELIABLE information about either Corona, Jamaica or Flushing.
A daily and Sunday auto trip has also been arranged to leave the office at 10 A. M. sharp, to enable you to see their offerings. There is no charge for this service, and no obligation to buy, but reservations must be made at least one day in advance. When reservations warrant it, a de luxe bus will be used on Sunday.-Advt.
Allan Shepard, 9, of 23 Vine street, and James McLaughlin, 10, 22 Vine street, South Jamaica, are giving serious thought to the matter of severing all school connections and entering the business world. And when Allen and Jimmy give serious thought to anything some very deep thinking is done. Vacation days were dragging heavy on the hands of the two young boys this week, so they decided that something had to be done.
"Let's go to work," suggested Allan. "Boy, you hit something that time," was Jimmy's response. "Work is something I don't want to do nuthin' else but. Let's go. But right here the boys hit a snag. Where should they work? Of course there are a lot of places where a young fellow can get a job, but where would their efforts be appreciated? For a few minutes the gray matter finally worked. Allan decided that the Government would like to have a couple of energetic "men."

Uncle Sam, reasoned Allan, would make a pretty good boss, too.
"Let's you and me go to the post office and work there." Allan said, and this met with Jimmy's approval, so they presented themselves before Lorenzo D. Brown, superintendent of mats, at the Jamaica post office.
Mr. Brown looked the pair over very carefully and had just about decided that perhaps they were too small and not strong enough for the work. But the case of Allan, whom it was to be disposed of so easily—not if they had anything to say about it.
"Well, how much pay do you want?" Mr. Brown asked
"Sixty-five cents an hour," was Allan's prompt answer. Strange to say, this is the rate paid substitute carriers. He calls for the work aren't "you" ventured Mr. Brown. "How much can you carry?"
"Well, you see," piped up Jimmy. "Allan and me wants to work together. We splits the pay and we splits the work. I guess may-
be us each can carry thirty pounds."
"Familiar with the territory?" was the superintendent's next question.
"Usn't ansi so familiar" answered Allan, after doing a little thinking, "but we knows all the places on the south side."
Mr. Brown was foundering. Finally, in desperation, he said: "Well, you know that all our employees must go to church regularly."
"Go to church?" came back Allan and Jimmy together. "So do us." And they named their respective places of worship.
So Mr. Brown took his pad and pencil, wrote down the names of the two youngsters and told them that "as soon as we need any help we will let you know."
"Just so's you don't forget," was Allan's paring shot, "you better take our telephone numbers."
When this had been done the boys were satisfied, and left for home to await the summons to duty.
Fonl Play Suspected in Death of Inwood Man
INWOOD. July 22—William Richards, 27, a chauffeur of 119 St. George place, Inwood, died in St. Joseph's Hospital, Far Rockaway, last week of wounds said by the county police to have been inflicted a short time before by another colored man with a razor.

Heated Discussion of Color Question Led to Stabbing, Say Brooklyn Police
Downtown Section of Church City Thrown Into Furore When Blind Man Is Discovered Stabbed and Given First Aid by Barber
Despite the fact that he is alleged to have been badly cut up by Mrs. Patricin Brown, his landlady, James Dhorkins, 42, a blind man, of 157 Duffield street, refused to press a charge of felonious assault against her in the Adams Street Court on Wednesday, July 20, and after medical attention at the Cumberland Street Hospital returned to the home of Mrs. Brown.
When both were arraigned before Magistrate Short on the same day, Dhorkins alleged that she cut him during an argument as to the relative merits of being a black Negro and a light Negro. Mrs. Brown also claimed that the blind man cut her.
Funeral services were held at St. Augustine's P. E. Church Wednesday afternoon, July 20, for Lewis S. Smith Jr., 17, the son of Lewis S. Smith Sr. and grandson of the late W. H. Smith, said to have been Brooklyn's wealthiest colored citizen at the time of his death.
The Rev. George F. Miller, rector of the church, officiated. He was assisted by Dr. H. C. Bishop, rector of St. Philip's P. E. Church, Manhattan.
Young Smith's death was due to drowning on Sunday afternoon, July 17, when he made a heroe effort to rescue his cousin, Miss Melab Smith, 19, of Mount Vernon, from drowning. She was saved by another cousin, Dr. William Warwick, of Germantown, Pa.
Smith, who was a popular member of Brooklyn's most exclusive social set, was a senior at the Boys' High School.
He was visiting his grandmother, Mrs. Ursuline Smith, at her country home at Sea Cliff. He and his two cousins, Miss Smith and Dr. Warwick, decided to take a sail in Hempstead Harbor, off Piries Point, when Miss Smith decided to take a swim. Warwick and Smith were in a boat rowing when suddenly they heard Miss Smith cry for help. Both went to her rescue.
Dr. Warwick was able to reach the young lady and get her ashore, but Smith, who was an excellent swimmer, became weakened by the exertion to reach his cousin and he was drowned.
He was the only child of Mr. and Mrs. Smith, who reside at 751 Marcy avenue.
His mother is Mrs. Effe Stanford Smith, the well-known slugger.
His grandfather, W. H. Smith, who died several years ago, conducted a catering business in the Wall Street section for a number of years and at the time of his death left an estate said to be valued at over $260,000.
His father, Lewis S. Smith, has a responsible position with the Central Trust Company. Manhattan.
Interment was in the family plot at Cypress Hills Cemetery.
Harlem Man Held Here Charged With Burglary
Francis Jacobs, 20, 16 West 141st street, Manhattan, who described himself as a cathedral dancer, was held in $3,000 bail for the Grand Jury on a charge of burglary by Magistrate Short, in the Adams Street Court Monday morning, July 18.
Jacobs was arrested by Patrolman John Pankanin, white, of the Poplar street station on July 15, charged with breaking into the apartment of Thomas Gaffney, white, of 475 Hudson avenue.
The police believe that Jacobs is the "afternoon tea burglar" who has been responsible for a number of robberies in the past few months. Many women reported their apartments were entered between 4 and 6 p.m.
When arrested and questioned by the police, Jacobs is alleged to have admitted that he needed money to tide him over until he began an engagement in an Atlantic City cabaret. From the looks of things he will have to postpone this particular engagement for some time.
According to the blind man, who recently moved to Brooklyn from Harlem, he has lived with Mr. and Mrs. Brown for several months. He sells matches for a living. Mrs. Brown guides him around in the morning and Mr. Brown guides him around in the afternoon. He pays them for this and also meets all of his living expenses out of the receipts from his sales and what the public gives him.
On Wednesday morning, about 11:45 o'clock, according to the police, the blind man and the Browns were socializing and they must have had a large amount of liquor, for Dorkins seemed under the influence of it. During the course of the socializing the conversation drifted to color, it is said. Dorkins is very dark and Mrs. Brown who is 26 years old, is very light. Mrs. Brown is alleged to have stated in very vigorous terms that she never was "wild about a black man." The blind man replied that light people had nothing to be proud of. In giving his opinion he is alleged to have used very strong language. Then a light started.
The blind man stated that someone cut him and, as only Mr. and Mrs. Brown were in the apartment, he knew that she cut him. He then is alleged to have drawn a knife and cut her. He claims that he did this in self-defense. Mrs. Brown claimed that the blind man attacked her first and that she threw a plate at him; but, from reports, it is doubtful that a plate could do the damage that was done to Dorkins, for he had a cut about two inches long over his left eye and a cut along his left cheek about four inches long. Eighteen stitches were taken in his face. Mrs. Brown was only slightly cut. She was cut on the face, her right index finger was cut and her left breast was bitten.
Attention was attracted to Dorkins when he left the apartment of the Browns, which is on the first floor. He was bleeding profusely and was crying that he had been cut. It is reported that, only for the first aid rendered by James Gant, proprietor of the barber shop at 1575 Duffield street, which was run by the late John E. Myers, he would have bled to death.
POLICEMAN Harry Abramowits of the Poplar street station was summoned; he in turn called a mounted policeman to his alder, for a huge crowd had gathered. Abramowitz went into the apartment of the Browns, while the other officer called an ambulance. At least a half-hour had expired between the appearance of the bleeding blind man on the street and the arrival of the ambulance and the crowd was so large that the reserves were called out to disperse the crowd. The rumor had spread that a man had been killed and it went like wildfire, and the morbidly curious flocked to the scene of the alleged murder.
The ambulance surgeon attempted to give Dhorkins alder, but he became so unruly that it was decided to take bin to the Cumberland Street Hospital.
He told Officer Abranowitz that he had been cut by Mrs. Brown and wanted her arrested. The officer replied that she also claimed that he cut her and he would have to arrest him also. With an oath the blind man said: "Well, lock us both up." Both were put in the ambulance but, instead of going to the hospital, they took them to the Poplar street station. From there they were arraigned before Magistrate Short. By this time the blind man had a change of heart and would not press the charge. Mrs. Brown would not press her charge, either. So the case was dismissed. Dhorkins did not want to go to the hospital, but the judge said he must go; so the officers were forced to put him in an ambulance and took him to the Cumberland Street Hospital. He remained there overnight, but to Thursday morning, he left, returning to the home of the Browns.

STEN
GLEN COVE, July 25—Patients and nurses at the Parkside Hospital were thrown into a panic one afternoon recently when Rufus Arroy, seven feet in height and powerfully built, stabbed his wife, Odell, to death on the lawn in front of the institution, where she was employed as cook.
A few moments later he was back, in the custody of two Nassau County detectives, shaking with fear and mumbling: "I done it! I done it!"
The self-confessed slayer was arrested by Detective Gordon Hurley and his brother, Lieutenant of Detectives William McKinley Hurley, as he ran for a bus on Sea Cliff avenue, close to the hospital. The detectives were riding by in a police automobile, when their suspensions were aroused by Arroy's evident haste to get away.
Driving the car around the front of the bus, Detective Hurley compelled it to stop, and the two enclosed and questioned the colored man, who had just entered.
"You got me, I done it," he told the detectives, and, as they asked him what he had done, a large pocket knife clattered to the floor. Picking it up, the detective opened it and found the largest blade stained with blood.
The victim was just breathing her last, when Tryor was taken back to her side. Seeing the detectives' attempt to obtain n

statement from her, Tryor protested:
"What's the use of asking her?
I tell you I done it."
He identified at once the knife the detectives picked up and admitted it was the weapon with which he had stabbed his wife.
"She was a good woman," he added, "but she wasn't good to me."
Tryor was then taken to the station house at Gen Cove, where he almost immediately signed a confession, and was then taken to the Mineola Jail. On Monday his case was taken to the Grand Jury and he was indicted for murder.
Mrs. Tryor, who was liked by everyone at the hospital because of her gentleness and refinement. While her work was in the kitchen, it had been her custom to go among the patients in the ward to cheer them up.
She had been separated from her husband since last December, when he was arrested on suspicion of violation of the Sullivan law. She obtained employment at the hospital and continued there, with her ten-year-old son, Oscar, after her husband was released. According to police in the hospital had lived in fear of him ever since she came.
On Saturday about 2 o'clock she left the institution for her afternoon off. Just as she was about to board the bus she was met by her husband leaving it. She turned and run back, it was alleged, with him in pursuit. As he caught up with her near the front steps and stabbed him in the pocket and stabbed again in the region of the heart. She staggered up the stairs and collapsed at the top, then her husband walked off as if to fly. Then he noticed the one last driving off and broke into a run to catch it.

NEWS OF CHURCHES AND FRATERNITIES
With the I.B.P.O.E. of W.
By Charles Magill
HENRY LINCOLN JOHNSON.
A. B. CHRIEL, exchanged ruler of Henry Lincoln Johnson Lodge, and his staff were installed last. Monday night by District Deputy David W McDaniel, assisted by Samuel B. Mitchell, deputy grand organizer. Past Exalted Ruler James Allen filled the station of grand esteemed leading knight for the installation. In addition to Chrielfow, those installed were: Leslie Taylor, leading knight; G. Kirkpatrick, leading knight; Fred Crusse, ensured; Wood ruler.
Following the ceremonies a collation was held in the basement of the lodge's meeting place at 606 Third Avenue, and Henry Lincoln Johnson Lodge band will be equipped with brand new uniforms as the result of a motion that prevailed at their last meeting to spend $1,000 to make the band presentable for the convention parade. A housing committee, head by treasurer Edward Gibbs, is now locating the house for Manhattan's youngest lodge. The members hope to be thoroughly installed in their new convention. Saturday night a class of 100 candidates will be installed.
Saturday night, August 6, a class of 60 candidates will be installed at the headquarters of Brooklyn Lodge No. 32, 1068 Fulton street. This will be the first installation under Joseph M. Washington, newly elected exalted ruler. At the last regular meeting of Brooklyn Lodge the secretary, Eugene Gordon, read his annual report. The report showed New York State's oldest lodge to be in excellent financial shape and was an evidence of the good work done for the lodge by the retiring exalted ruler, Counsellor Thomas L. Higgins.
Funeral services over the remains of the late Charles Trice, a charter member of the lodge, who died Thursday at his home, 346 Van Buren street, were held Sunday at 2 p.m. at Nazarene Congregational Church, the Rev. H. H. Proctor officiating.
Counsellor Higgins, chairman of the Brooklyn lodge convention delegates, headed his delegation to a meeting held in Manhattan Tuesday night, where the New York delegates were organized.
Dr. George of Paducah, Ky.; Dr. R. R. Johnson of Brooklyn, and William Turner of Wheeling, W. Va., are candidates, respectfully offered the office of the grand lodge offices now hold of grand esteemed leading knight, grand esteemed lecturing knight, and grand esquire. The first two are administered in or on the side may go, with the grand exalted ruler. The latter is classed more as an independent. Turner, who has the distinction of being a grand police officer, is likely to have little opposition for re-election. With the secret ballot in effect this year, it is difficult to predict election results so far. This薄薄 does not seem to be making much of a fight in aid of his candidacy for grand exalted ruler. The battle is likely to narrow-down to Mr. Wilson and Mr. Steele, with the odds
Palladie Lodge of Yonkers, N. Y., is planning to have its new home dedicated by Grand Excalibur Ruler William W. Wheeler. Yonkers, being one of New York's suburbs, is preparing to care for delegates and visitors who might prefer to live in the country during the week of the convention. Special meeting last Wednesday night. Monarch Lodge passed a resolution endorsing the candidacy of the present grand exaltation, and the delegates agreed to endorse its delegates to vote for Wilson at the coming convention. But one dissenting vote was recorded against the resolution. At the last regular meeting of impaired bridge similar resolutions were done.
Manhattan Lodge No. 45, however, stands pat on its endorser, previously mined the endorsement of Henry Lincoln Johnson and Brooklyn lodges, Mr. Wilson now city delegate, the city delegate pledged, to him. An Imperial Lodge a heated discussion ensured before the adoption of the bill. The Lodge the rails has been so stressed by the work of Casser Holstein and Blondy Brown that the city went through without much comment.

HILE,ON MY WAY irom Portland to San Fran-
cisco T saw a picture of R. R. Wright, Senior and
Junior, I was immediately struck with the idea
of the transmission of college traditions from father to
son. I have recently written so much about the second
generation of college-hred Negroes that a few concrete il-
lustrations are necessary -to iitusteate fully my idea.
R, R. Wright. Sr.. represents as well as any other pos+

Montmartre Also Has Reputation as Being Jazziest Spot
MONTMARTRE! The jazziest and sexiest spot on the two continents! The first place visited by all good Americans! Cut out Montmartre, and you make an awful dent in the tourist trade. Last year, when the price of the franc shot up, Americans deserted Paris in droves, and dozens of these places had to close. With the present war against cabarets and sexie places in New York, Montmartre is doing a finer business than ever this year. This zone of hectic night life somehow reminds me of Harlem and Chicago's South Side. The respectable Nordic drowses on such places in his neighborhood, but comes into the Negro neighborhood when he wants to cut loose. When the Englishman wants to have a good time, he comes to Paris, but a Montmartre or a nude show in London would be unthinkable. One must be clothed from head to foot to be respectable in England. The English and the Americans are great manufacturers of clothing, yarn and economys twin sisters?
The three principal music halls of Montmartre—the Folies-Bergere, the Moulin Rouge, and the Casino de Paris—frankly enter to the nude. Scores of bodies throng their stages, some with figures eclipsing that of the Venus de Milo, and almost eclipsing her in the matter of clothing or lack of it. The Paris halls, who by the way, are mostly English girls, do wear a garment about one-fifth of an inch larger and thicker than the sleeve of ham one gets in a railroad sandwich. I visited Montmartre in 1925. It's the same this year, only one sees more, each more of the ladies.
In 1925 at the Folles-Bergere it was Bengla, the magnificent Negro, dancing with one of the white ladies clad in the above mentioned unmentionables. This year it is Josephine Baker, dressed in two tiny tufts of red and yellow feathers, back and front. This, I have been told, took the place of three or four bananas, which looked as if they would fall off any minute. There is also a moving picture at the Folles with nudes, and then ever so many more nudes.
At the Casino de Paris, which is even more gorgeous than the Folles this year, is a black girl of such matchless figure and bust (what I really mean to say is breasts) that the audience applauds when she appears—and that is all she does. French audiences applaud little, since the actors are in the habit of hiring their own applause, better known as the claque.

THE BRAIN is that part of the body where mental pictures are formed and emotions developed through
the nerve impulses originating in the sense organs of eye, ear, nose and skin. There is also intimate connection between the brain and the internal organs of the body through the nervous system. Thus our complete personality is controlled or modified by the brain. Every impression or stimulation coming to the brain from the time of birth to the last beat of the heart has some effect upon the cells of the brain. Thus we behave our personality is formed, our habits made, our emotions, instincts, memory, sensations and experience initiated and controlled. Our environment, what we hear, see, smell, feel, eat or drink have some effect upon the brain cells. Consequently our environment should be the best at all. Therefore the brain cells function normally.
A rule for individuals, families, cities and nations should be: "As ye would that men should do to you do ye also to them likewise." This ideal environment at the present state of your civilization does not exist, and therefore the brain is continually injured, resulting in spiritual and physical abnormalities such as anger, fear, envy, selfishness, heart disease, diabetes, kidney trouble, neurasthenia, hysteria. Thus we human beings suffer with physical and mental disease, some more than others.
Changing this mental reaction of environmental impressions is the field of psychotherapy. It is a method of changing certain abnormal mental and physical conditions by appealing to the willpower intelligence and reasoning power of an individual. It is a legitimate procedure, but its limits is limited. Physicians, social workers, ministers and moral teachers can and do use psychotherapy in certain mental and physical abnormalities in order to make the individual more normal. Human beings in everyday life are constantly reacting to de-valuing impressions and over-simulations. Thus, overwork,

repeated misunderstandings, domestic friction, bad news, noise, darkness and unsanitary surroundings act as a "thousand pin pricks" to the sensitive brain. If these conditions are continuous or acutely powerful, a "breakdown" of the nervous system will occur and the functional disturbances in the heart, kidney, liver and stomach will result. The individual becomes sick. Some chronic disturbance is established in mind and body, such as a neurotic, psychoneurotic, pseudo-dyspentics, pseudo-cardiens, pseudo-asthmatic. Certain diseases are therefore established by certain mental tendencies or reactions, such as anger, fear, envy, selfishness and vanity.
These mental reactions could be prevented by the self-education of the will-power, or by the persuasive influence of some other person. In this way these abnormal states of mind and body can be prevented. The sick one can be cured by psychic means, cured by appealing to the will-power, personality, intelligence and reasoning power.

The same sight may be seen in any of the dance halls in Paris, sometimes a white man and a black girl, but more often the converse. I have been taking some of the Negro tourists to these dance halls so that they may see for themselves. The Negro population of Paris seems to have increased since I was here last.
Montmartre has other shows, too. frankly vulgar, some with plays which cater entirely to French audiences. Life begins there after midnight, and the jazz bands do not begin to hit their stride and the champagne corks to pop their loudest at two frames

Those Lead Speakers
Dear Egypt Ann:
My problem is getting to annoy me. The girl I go out with has one bad fault, and that is that she talks too loudly. She embarrasses me very much, especially on the train and trolley. She seems to be unaware as to how uncomfortable she makes me feel. I haven't the nerve to ask her to speak softly, as she would probably feel hurt. Kindly advise me what to do.
L. M.
Dear L. M:
Your girl isn't the only young woman in town who needs a little tempering down. Speaking loudly in public doesn't show good breeding. No matter how educated persons may be, if they talk in a loud tone they are classified below their station.
Recently, to my sorrow, I met an acquaintance of mine in a trolley car. Her greeting was so noisy that all eyes were turned upon us. Of course, she was entirely unaware of the fact, but I was getting uncomfortable under the collar. She talked on, sharing her conversation and slang with the other passengers, who were amused indeed. She, poor soul, was quite unconscious of our attention and plight. Finally, I decided that something must be done.
"Look here, A——," I said to her. "Isn't that woman annoying?"
"What woman?" she asked.
"The one down at the end of the car who is talking so loudly." I answered, meaning her, of course. "Why, everyone in the car has heard everything she's said! Don't you admire refined voices?"
"I do," answered she, in a voice greatly lowered. For the rest of our trip she spoke in a modulated tone.
Is M. it wouldn't be a bad idea for you to admire people with soft voices in your girl friend's presence, nor would it hurt to express disapproval loudness. You must not take the hint, but you must expect her to change overnight. You just keep on praising to the skies some girl who has a refined manner of speech. She'll get busy.
Luck to you.

One begins to feel in good Anglo-Saxon style that the taste of the Parisian public must be awfully perverted. Well, there are in Paris more than six theatres of the most serious sort as the Opera, Opera, Comique, the Trocadero, the Odeon, where the plays of Cornellie, Hugo, Moliere, Racine and Shakespeare are put on nightly. They are large theatres, but try to get a seat in one of them any night and you have a job on your hands. The bulk of these patrons are by no means what we call the intelligentsia.

A noted sculptor from the East came here, looked at the towing rock and decided that the carving could be done, and it is likely the plan will be made feasible within a few months. Two years will likely be required to cut Lincoln's figure into the heights of limestone. The peak lifts its mighty head above Cumberland Gap, and its shadow reaches almost to Lincoln Memorial University. The rock mountain is located on the grounds of the university, which, however, is in Tennessee. Virginia, Kentucky and Tennessee State lines join here. The figure of Lincoln would be more than 100 feet in height, and according to the plans as advanced, it would be alone.
Legislative Manual Ready for Distribution
ALBANY. July.—The 1827 New York State Legislative Manual, issued by Robert Moses, Secretary of State, and now in the process of distribution, easily takes rank as one of the foremost publications of its kind in the state. The Legislative Manual has been published in New York State continuously for over 100 years, starting as a book of comparatively few pages that included the State Constitution, a list of the members of the Legislature, committees and towns, together with the population figures. Today the manual is a book of over 1,200 pages and is really the "Who's Who" of New York State's official life.
This year's manual contains a great deal of new matter that makes it more valuable than ever as a reference volume. The various commissions and bureaus have been gathered under the eighteen major state departments, in accordance with the reorganization program. Small cuts have been used of the heads of these departments for the purpose of more closely identifying the individual with the department over which he presides. The political section is unusually complete.

COMPLETE FUNDS FOR MILHOLLAND BUSTS
Emmett J. Scott of Howard University has advised the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People that the sum of $277.50 had been raised for the purpose of playing at Howard University a bust of the late John E. Milholland, vice-president of the N. A. A. C. P. at the time of his death, and a lifelong champion of the Negro. Mr. Scott called attention to the fact that the Washington Committee was the first to raise the money for one of these busts.

jokes at the Folies are just as "hot" as at the Lafayette in New York, yet its show is not a more presentation of the nude, but displays of such beauty and artistic excellence that only prudes of the worst sort could be offended. The displays at the Montmartre music halls certainly improve one's taste in femininity and make it doubly difficult for those women who neglect their shapes.

We now were on higher ground. No water here at all. We watched the people interestedly as we came to the little towns. The white people were of the "ipo" white trash" type. You could sense in their attitude and carriage an effort to uphold the social supremacy which their white skins gave them, even though they looked positively ludicrous in their attempted superglory. Style certainly was present, though. The younger girls whom we saw from the car windows were hobbled and "Poroed" right up to the minute and dressed in gay foulards and kinghams out according to the prevailing style. It was surprising, way down here below the sun. I don't know where they get them, whether from Sears Rebuck or locally. Silk hose and dresses of slinker silk, the latter looking somehow out of place, were there in abundance, too.

sounds very unpatriotic, but patriotism and fact are foes.
What is the cause of all this? My guess—a guess founded on introspection—is that with freedom to see what they please, when they please, the average French theatre-goer prefers what is "respectable" just as the average American. Most of my French friends speak contemporously of the Montmartre cabaret. In America, however, sex plays are combated, thus arousing an abnormal interest in them. There is this one fact about sex: the more one fights the stronger it gets, like Antaeus in Greek mythology. Finally sex becomes an obsession. Give it enough play, however, and it soon becomes the fattest of subjects for the
"Happy to know you, Mrs. Smith," I ventured.
"My compliments," she replied and then with a directness and ability which" startled me, since she had never seen me before, began to read my palm.

"You don't like crowds, but you'll talk when there's just two," she said. J. O. moved across the aisle.
"You ought to come to Chicago," I told her, as I wiped the perspiration from my brow after her revealing exposure. "If you wrap a turban around your head and do a Jalta, Johnson, you'd get rich overnight."
"Oh. I never make money out of my gift, she said demurely."
Twenty-one years old, she was a Mrs. Smith of North Little Rock, and had come down to see that her mother was safe on high ground.

great majority, since sex excitation is of short duration. Were it not for the Americans and the English, two sex-repressed nations, the Montmartre cabarats with their champagne and dancers de luxe would probably sink to the level of the Halles, haunt of the Apaches.
I think John Calvin was right. Some of us are going to hell anyway. Hell. if there is one, was certainly made to hold people, and in trying to reform everybody we give the biggest kind of advertisement possible to the "devil's" work.
Nude shows after all, whether in Paris or New York, are only money making propositions. Imagine in the Congo, where the women go nude, some Congo Zilgeld putting on a nude show.
I'll never forget a sight I saw once in a magistrate's court in New York. Some lackless fellow had been found with a lot of lewd pictures and was up for a hearing. Before the trial the pictures were passed around in an inner room where all of us reporters, policemen, clerks, all had a good look at them. Among the number, was the magistrate, who after several jokes at the pictures, went on the bench and gave the prisoner a stiff sentence. And speaking of pictures I must tell this one, though it is almost too good a joke to be given away.
The average tourist arrives from the land of the pure with the impression that Paris, is a naughty city and, of course, he isn't so far wrong. While in the neighborhood of the Opera, the Place de la concade or the Arc de Triomphe, hanuts of the sellers of post cards, guide-books, etc. he will very likely be approached by one of these vendors in the same city, secretive way that sellers of pretended "hot" goods do in America, slip-

By LEOLA LILLARD
THE MOST elastic word in the whole vocabulary of entertaining is the term lancheon. It is applied to a midday meal occurring any time between 11 a.m. and 3 p.m., and may mean anything from a brilliant a la Russse banquet to the hastily gathered fragments left from yesterday's dinner.
It may describe an hour of absolute leisure and the most delightful conversational interchange, or it may signify the five minutes' grab from the sideboard between the games of a closely contested amateur tennis tournament.
In general, we may say that luncheon, resembling the dinner in the main features of its serving, has these points of distinction: the number of guests is irregular, usually uncertain; they go to the table single; they come dressed in any way that the hour of the day or their recent occupations warrant—men dropping in dressed for business or sporting and ladies in promenade costumes, with bonnets or hats; the luncheon being largely of cold dishes, is not spoiled by a half-hour's tardiness; a late-c comer is greeted as cordially as the first arrival, and "the more the merrier" seems to be the motto of the hostess who keeps "open house" at luncheon time.
The formal luncheon, for which engraved invitations are issued, is usually the "ladies' luncheon" type, and the formality of serving is equalled by the elegance of the toilete. Men have little leisure for daytime entertainments, except during the brief outing at some summer resort, where the easy-going lunch is the ruling fashion.
The menu of the cold luncheon may present great variety and provide for many guests with little trouble. For a smaller or more definite number, a hot luncheon may be prepared. The cold luncheon may consist of cold meats—ham, tongue, roast beef, etc.—salads, wine jellies, fruits, cakes, bonbons and coffee. For a hot luncheon is suggested the following: a tender steak with mashed potatoes and asparagus, or something equally simple, and a desert of ple or cooked fruits. In all respects, the luncheon is a little "informal dinner." If it is strictly formal it consists usually of soup, fruits, lobster in cutlets, croquettes with mushrooms, an omelet or fish, broiled chicken or lamb chops with green peas and potatoes, a salad, crackers and cheese, ice cream, coffee, tea or chocolate.

ping you a package of cards in a covering of tissue paper, the man gives you just enough time to get a fleeting glimpse of a nude female, then in the most frightened manner possible, glancing from right to left, he says instantly. "Put it in your pocket. Quick! Quick! Police!"
Of course, you, full of the above mentioned impression, thinking here is a chance to get some real pictures to take back as souvenirs that you have really been in gay Pairs, decide to keep them. How much! Fifteen francs. You calculate quickly. Only sixty cents. Why in the States they'd cost that many cents each. You hand over your money. Back at your hotel you pull them out for one good look, then if you have a sense of humor you'll have a good laugh at yourself instead. . . . They're reproductions of pictures to be seen in any art gallery. And you have been, passing by better than these all morning in the shop windows for one-fifth the price. These men do a rushing business.
Let us suppose, however, that you're no greenhorn, and insist on speaking French no matter how much English he speaks. You ask him how long he has been selling pictures in that neighborhood. He replies several months, on which you hint that the policemen must be awful dumb not to have spotted him all that time. He makes you another proposition. He promises to take you to a place where you can see something "awful good." All of which reminds me that I had better close, or some lady will be writing to "double dare" me to tell, as in the case of my article on Pompei.

the 4 o'clock tea, gives opportunity for displaying all the pretty china one owns. Flowers and fruits may decorate the table or tables, and all the most artistic effects may be secured by a little attention to blending and grouping. A hostess who knows how can make her rooms look like a festal bower for these occasions without much money outlay, and if she is clever in the compounding of made dishes and salads, she can give luncheons that are remembered as the epitome of good style, albeit the bills for the same are surprisingly small. Such a gifted woman enjoys a sense of exultation that is unknown to her richer sister, who merely fills out a check for the cost and leaves all else to the caterer.
At a home luncheon, ladies remove wraps but retain hats. As the guests enter the drawing-room the hostess shakes hands with them and introduces them to one another before going to the dining-room. When no men are present the hostess leads the way to the dining-room and the guests find their places at the table by the name cards. When men are present the procedure to the dining-room follows the custom at a formal dinner.
It is becoming customary to use the daylight as much as possible at all social functions; and, indeed, at no affair, unless it be very late in the afternoon and very ceremonious, is the daylight excluded and the candles and chandeliers lighted.
As the luncheon is the most impromptu and variable of meals, each person's conduct must be guided by his or her own instinctive sense of propriety. One who is habitually polite is not likely to make any blunders at a luncheon, since there are no arbitrary rules to trip up the unwary. If the luncheon hour is much past noon the guests should be careful not to remain too long after, as they might thus be declaiming the hostess from later afternoon engagements.

"I had asthma all my life. It came upon me when I was a baby and I began to worry about everything, never wanting more than a little temporary relief, this terrible affliction. One year ago in May, as a last resort, I tried Nacor. At the time I was so weak, I had no every breath, and had had a night in bed for ten weeks. I had to leave me, and from that time on I improved steadily. I began getting today. My asthma is entirely gone. I don't choke up or wheeze at all, so I don't die. I am at last entirely rid of the disease."

WITH THE PERMANENT suspense an injunction of nineteen years binding, which restrained Negroes New York State from legally calling themselves Elks or using regalia similar to that used by the white order that name, the ominous skies which have darkened the future of Negroes or have cleared for the time being just. Therefore, the next session of the Grand Lodge will be held in New York City as previously scheduled.
IT BECAME APPARENT long ago that the whole controversy could and should have been avoided, since the white Elks in the state offered no opposition to the Negro Elks; and it was reasonable to assume that if the white Elks entered no opposition the state would never none. Through the controversy, they has been found to remove permanently the restraining injunction from the statute books in this state. The same, it has served a useful purpose, in spite of the petty jealousy and double dealing which marked from the beginning to end.
NEW YORK CITY should now ready to entertain the thousands delegates the convention will bring the city from far and near places. A month remains with work aplenty for the members of the New York Convention Committees, local lodges of order, and the public at large. The operation of the latter has been assured should be given in an unstimming manner.
H. L. Mencken and Half Truths
IF IT IS THE DUTY of a columnist, or up a hornets' nest every once in a mile, H. L. Mencken, the editor of American Mercury Magazine, writes in the Sunday World under reading, "Hiring a Hall," will go down in history as one of the world's great columnists. Mencken attacked Negro preacher last Sunday week, pretty strong language, and for the next few weeks he may expect to receive numerous one-way tickets to perdition, he said:
Elks' Controversy Settled
WITH THE PERMANENT suspension of an injunction of nineteen years' standing, which restrained Negroes in New York State from legally calling themselves Elks or using regalia similar to that used by the white order of that name, the ominous skies which have darkened the future of Negro order have cleared for the time being, at least. Therefore, the next session of the Grand Lodge will be held in New York City as previously scheduled.
IT BECAME APPARENT long ago that the whole controversy could and should have been avoided, since the white Elks in the state offered no opposition to the Negro Elks; and it was reasonable to assume that if the white Elks offered no opposition the state would offer none. Through the controversy a way has been found to remove permanently the restraining injunction from the statute books in this state. Therefore, it has served a useful purpose, in spite of the petty jealousies and double dealing which marked it from the beginning to end.
NEW YORK CITY should now get ready to entertain the thousands of delegates the convention will bring to the city from far and near places. A scant month remains with work aplenty for the members of the New York Convention Committees, local lodges of the order, and the public at large. The cooperation of the latter has been asked and should be given in an unstinted manner.

Mencken, the editor of the American Mercury Magazine, who writes in the Sunday World under the heading, "Hiring a Hall," will go down in history as one of the world's greatest columnists. Mencken attacked the Negro preacher last Sunday week in pretty strong language, and for the next few weeks he may expect to receive numerous one-way tickets to perdition. In part, he said:
He (meaning the Negro prachers) has led the race since the Civil War and he has made a dreadful botch of it. His influence today, though it is fast declining, is still for the bad. Those Negroes who follow him remain ignorant and ridiculous: Nothing comes out of them save monks.
NOT ONLY did Mencken thus assmtsmself of a one-way ticket to hell, is fast becoming apparent that he made some sort of an official wh

he gets there; that is, if the Rev. Dr. John W. Robinson, pastor of St. Mark's Methodist Episcopal Church, has anything to do with it. The Rev. Dr. Robinson, in his Sunday morning sermon, detected a cloven foot on the Mercury editor, and cloven feet never adorn the extremities of ordinary sinners. In part, Dr. Robinson said:
"I wonder if Mr. Mencken is not peeved ever the presence of Negroes in New York's social circles. It is passing strange that he should use the realm of the Negro in business, in which field we have not yet accomplished much, as productive of a leadership that shall eclipse the in-
fluence of the colored pastor. When that day shall such men will be knocking the Negro business man's leadership. With no word of praise for Negro poets or composers, Mr. Mencken takes a dastardly fling at the colored pastor. He could not hide his cloven foot."
NOW MR. MENCKEN is, after all, old and done, a human being. U.S. thousands of other human beings will take their bread and butter by writing, may not know what he is talking about; or, he may know only a part of the truth of what he is talking about the credit him with sincerity. We cannot credit him with having spoken a whole truth in the article complained or the simple reason that we do not believe that he knows the whole truth of white or colored men know a whole truth of the racial situation of America. Fewer still would be fouling to voice it even if they know it.

NOW MR. MENCKEN is, after all is said and done, a human being.

Few white or colored men know the whole truth of the racial situation in America. Fewer still would be found willing to voice it even if they did know it.
IS WHAT FOLLOWS THE WHOLE TRUTH?
"The acceptance of the educated Negro socially removes his last ground for complaint against his fate in the Republic, and leaves him exposed to the same criteria of judgment that apply to every one else."
AROUND this assertion Mencken whole article is built, which proceeds to compare what the Negro has done with music, poetry and prose with what he has done by the white race. If a major assumption is untrue and not found, all he bases upon it cannot be shaky, however sincere he may be. The Negro has not been accepted, specially, whether educated or not, as Mr. Mencken doesn't know, it is no late for him to find out for himself that is more, the majority of Negroes are not concerned with social equality in the way that Mr. Mencken thinks they are concerned with it. Few Negroes care anything about it at all. Because a few Negroes have been found who are willing to go to any length to associate themselves socially with white people and be patronized by them no reason to conclude that all Negroes will be found willing to do some thing.
GIVE THE Negro an equal opportunity inside and outside the law; give him equal educational and other facts for which he is taxed as a citizen; him pick him own associates, own leaders, and stop penalizing him because of his race and color, and will work out his own salvation.

What Is Education About?
(From the Herald, Tribune.)
Higher education has become so general in the United States that professors, parents and students alike are in danger of taking it for granted. Only once in a while are we roused to fundamental thinking as to what it is all about. An important contribution to such reflection has just been made by Dr. William S. Learned in the twentieth bulletin of the Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching, entitled "The Quality of the educational Process in the United States and in Europe."
Earlier education has become so general in United States that professors, parents and students are in danger of taking it for granted. One in a while are we roused to fundamental that as to what it is all about. An important situation to such reflection has just been made William S. Learned in the twentieth bulletin Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement Teaching, entitled "The Quality of the education access in the United States and in Europe." Dr. Learned's careful investigations abroad further importance of perspective to his obsesion on our own educational practice. In make paraphrases he comes to conclusions that bear troubled suspicions of those at all conversions in university problems and methods in this course. Dr. Learned finds clearly one definite supply in both French and English university education.
Dr. Learned's careful investigations abroad give peculiar importance of perspective to his observations on our own educational practice. In making comparisons he comes to conclusions that bear out the troubled suspicions of those at all conversant with university problems and methods in this country. Dr. Learned finds clearly one definite superiority in both French and English university education over our own. The English and Continental universities do promote in their students a habit of definite and concentrated inquiry. The undergraduate
unite abroad is engaged in solving genuine intellectual problems, working toward a clear and definite project of scholarship or thought, not learning the trick of passing a course or meeting the peculiar demands of a given professor. A man's work—it is interesting, by the way, that no one calls Oxford students boys—is a disciplined convergence toward mastery of some field, not a whimsical splattering of electives. Stephen Leacock would not meet abroad a young man taking Turkish, music and architecture not because he meant to be choirmaster in a Turkish cathedral but because they came at 9, 10 and 11." Dr. Learned points out, furthermore, the notorious extent to which American college education, both from the point of view of dean and student, consists in points and credits, signifying nothing very much, at least in the presence of a given number of hours listening to or at least in the presence of a given number of professors. Nor. is it unjust to point out, as Dr. Learned does, that the colleges repeat too much the method and split of the high school, nor that we make provision for the gifted athlete rather than for the gifted student.
It is encouraging to note in a report of this thorough-going type signs of genuine hope. There are reforms in process all over the country that promise to turn the colleges into centers of genuine education rather than mere treadmills of instruction. At Harvard the combination of the small-group tutorial system and the requirement for the election of groups of related courses are doing much to get rid of the evils of the lecture system and the play-boy elective system. One tutor reports that the "gentleman's mark" is disappearing. Study, when it has a point, may become a fashion. The honor system at Columbia, with its provision for intensive work in one field and a thorough survey of the classics of European culture, is another recent development of real importance. The so-called "orientation" courses in widely scattered colleges in the East and West and the Melklejohn project at Wisconsin for a college that shall be a co-operative body of scholars—all these indicate the hopeful restiveness of American education. Ten years from now a report such as Dr. Learned's may find many of its causes for criticism

INTERRACIAL church women, who recently met in conference at Wyncote, Pa., for the purpose of working out national plans for better race relations in America, have concluded a Christianized and ambitious program, which is worthy of a nation-wide effort. The proposed policies call for the frequent exchange of interracial visits between religious exponents of both racial groups, with the view, we presume, of promoting a contact as a background for a real understanding, from which the whites will glean that since there is but one Heaven they might as well begin now to prepare for the unity which will prevail there. The ardent Christian women ask that in securing places for Christian conventions, locations be selected at which the delegates can attend ON THE SAME BASIS.
In practical lines, they call for a changing attitude on the part of white employers and workers toward colored workers; for the encouragement and training of colored workers for more equitable opportunities in industry and for better placements.
They demand that educational institutions, both public and private, shall give only a true presentation of the Negro and his contribution to America; and they point out the benefits in Negro health work, of removing discriminations against Negro physicians in municipal and other provisions for training and experience. In all, the church women have perfected a landable reformation for the Church, the white wing of which, during the past century, has exhibited the grossest example of neglect we have ever observed. If it would have done so—yea, if it had had the Christian fortitude with which it should have been surcharged, the church could have clasped the hand of the Negro and led him forward to FAITH, LOVE AND GOD.
Compelled though to seek his own God, the breach between the Negro and the white Christian creed is both broad and deep. The Church can mend its ways, if it will; and the Wynote delegates have shown it how to do so. There is yet time to "Love the Lord, thy God with all thy heart and thy neighbor as thyself." Is the Church at last ready to practice what it preaches?

"God's Trombones"
By JAMES WELDON JOHNSON. Published by The Viking Press, Inc., 30 Irving Place, New York City. Price, $2.60.
ALWAYS find it difficult to review poetry. Poetry touches our emotions. We like it or we don't like it, and we don't want to reason and weigh it. So I say unreservedly of "God's Trombones" that I like it immedensely. I think that everyone who cares for poetry ought to read it, and I think the Negro who has any books in his library should have this one. It not only is noble free verse, but it tries to fix in our imagination the old-time preacher, a type that is rapidly passing and should not be forgotten.
God's Trombones — God's Trumpeters we would have said before the trombone became so important in the Negro orchestra—preach for us seven sermons, with an opening prayer. The sermons are on familiar topics: The Creation, The Prodigial Son, Go Down Death, Noah Built the Ark, The Crucifixion, Let My People Go, and The Judgment Day. As one reads them one after another (aloud to get the full effect) it is like the unarching of a great procession led by God, "the stars clustered about His head," whose footsteps "hollowed the valleys out and bulled the mountains up." There is Noah, "His long white beard a-flying in the-wind, And the Gospel light a-gleaming
from his eye,
the crowd laughing at him as he
builds his ark. The Prodigal
Son slinks by.

The Hebrew children leave Egypt where they were held "under the driver's lash," and march on a path through the middle of the sea, dry as the sands of the desert. Jesus climbs Golgotha's rugged road. black Simon bearing the cross. The line of figures is majestic; not people shut up in a book to be brought to life ceremoniously of a Sunday, but vivid, alive, moving in the world today. Where the poet begins and the preacher ends we shall never know. Mr. Johnson may have remembered bits from various foreign-born whites fell from 45.9 per cent to 35.8 per cent.
459 per cent. With such marked abandonment of household duties on the part of the whites, some one, of course, had to fill the gap in kitchens, builders, and dining rooms; and the vacant places were filled by colored females, ten years of age and over, who climbed from a percentage of 42.4 in 1910 to 50.3 per cent in 1920, thus saving the day for those in search of honest, energetic and 'table' cooks, handmaids, waiters, nurses and general houseworkers.
We are happy, of course, to find one spot, as to which the Negro is encouraged to seek to reach the highest pinnacle of work success. Nevertheless, we are a bit discouraged when we remember that the white domestic group, which in a decade graduated into clerks, stenographers, teachers, executives, and skilled artisans in the trades and vocations, were not accompanied by a commensurate percentage of our own faithful wives, daughters, mothers and sisters.
That they of this latter group are still enforcedly clinging, in such a large percentage, to the arduous tasks of domestic service, is not we, know, because

I take this opportunity to commend your work as editor and the contributors of your paper on the Special Article Page.
The article of July 6, entitled "The Devil's Playground" by Edgar M. Grey, was given special attention Sunday by me at both the morning service and in the afternoon, before the Sunday school. I had a young woman to read the article to the school and I believe it made a very deep impression upon the young people.
Yours respectfully,

Daniel Haynes' Voice Attracting Attention
A marveilous voice has been discovered in Daniel L. Haynes, a hitherto unknown. This voice of rich quality with tones as true as those of an organ is attracting much attention in Miller and 'Lyles' revue, "Rang-Tang" at the Royale Theatre. The newly found singer was born in Atlanta, Ga., graduated from the Morris Brown University of the same city and later took a course at the Chicago University. Haynes made his first appearance on the stage last February in a dramatic role in "The Bottom of the Cup," at the Mayfair Theatre, succeeding Charles Gilpin in the part. Afterward he played in "Earth" at the Fifty-second Street Theatre, and in the same play at the Grove Street Theatre in Greenwich Village.

Mechanized Warfare By WILLIAM PICKENS
ACCORDING to a recent press story, England and her inventors are planning to use fewer men and more mechanism and machinery in war.
That's good news. Instead of drafting so many human lives for war, we can then draft more iron and steel and other hard goods and munitions. Battle "tanks" can be controlled by radio and sent toward the enemy's lines with no men aboard. Even the guns can be directed and fired by radio. And when the enemy blows up the tank, perhaps also by use of his manless artillery, we will lose only a tank. The day will be won by the side whose tanks and other materials may last the longer.
Airplanes, with no human flyer aboard, controlled by a radio station somewhere on the ground, can be sent over the enemy's lines to drop deadly bombs into his territory.
Perhaps we can get more "generals" and other officers to engage in the fighting when the fighting can thus be done from far back of the lines and out of reach of the enemy's guns, except such guns and bombs as the enemy might send toward us in tanks and planes. Anyhow, it would take much fewer men to conduct a war — the generals, colonels, majors and lieutenants would be about sufficient. The mass of mankind could

Pacific Coast Has Fewer Infant Deaths
According to an announcement made by the American Child Health Association based upon the annual report on infant mortality for 1926, cities of the Pacific Coast lead the entire United States in having the lowest infant death rates.
The reports show that the thirty-eight cities of more than 100,000 population of the three west coast states. Washington, Oregon and California, had a combined rate last year of 54, which represented the number of deaths under 1 year of age per 1,000 births.

Song of the Son
POUR, O pour that parting soul in song,
O pour it in the sawdust glow of night,
Into the velvet pine-smoke air tonight,
And let the valley carry it along.
And let the valley carry it along.
O land and soil, red soil and sweet-gum tree,
So scant of gress, so profligate of pines.
Now just before an epoch's sun declines.
Thy son, in time, I have returned to thee.
Thy son, I have in time returned to thee.
In time, although the sun is setting on
A song-lit race of slaves, it has not set:
Though late, O soil, it is not too late yet
To catch thy plaintive soul, leaving, soon gone.
Leaving, to catch thy plaintive soul soon gone.
O Negro slaves, dark purple ripened husks,
Squeezed, and bursting in a pine-world air.
Passing, before they strip the old tree bare
One plum was saved for me, one seed becomes
An everlasting song, a singing tree.

What they were, and what they are to me.
Caroling softly souls of slavery.

moves, with no sailor or marine aboard. It can be steered forward, backward, in any direction, and its guns can be directed, directed and fired. When such warships as that are put on the ocean, there will be some point in limiting naval armaments to certain marina of tonnage, for the result of the war will depend directly upon who can last longest in explosives and floating steel. War will be reduced to its lowest and truest terms—the survival of the biggest.
But, won't it be fine to have naval battles without any men and land battles with nobody but the generals and other officers? Then, indeed, we shall not have to conscript men but only to conscript property. "Quotas" will then consist, not of lives, but of materials: the Steel Trust will have to supply its quota of steel; the Munitions Trust its quota of munitions; the Water Power Trusts their quotas of electricity, etc.
And whenever war thus attacks property as almost its sole victim, war will become a crime, and will stop, or be stopped. Whenever our casualty lists begin to relate, not how many sons of mothers have lost their lives, but how many tons of the Steel Trust's steel, how many gallons of the Oil Trust's oil, and how many kilowatts of the Power Trust's electricity have been sacrificed in the last great battle, there will be a different attitude toward war. For property is sacred.
When the products of the trusts can be conscripted instead of being sold in war, instead of their wanting to bring on a war for profits they will avoid a war as they would avoid a commercial and financial panic.
Here's hoping that England and her rivals will advance mechanized war methods to such a degree that there will be no more human slaughter but only property destruction, only "mechanical death." The CAUSE of war has always been goods. Why not let goods become the sole VICTIM of war?
If we can have mechanism an automata to do all the fighting and "dying," then perhaps the chief horror of war will be shifted from the multitude to the millionaire; and instead of sacrificing millions of "doughboys," we will need to sacrifice only a few dozen "dough" men.
A war that destroyed only the property of the rich would do more to prevent war than would any treaty. As a peacemaker, science may ultimately prove to be superior to religion.
