McCray—Why Not Garvey?
Associated Press on Aug. 11, the days "Warren T. McCray, Governor of Indiana having completed one-third of a tenure term in the Atlanta Federal Penitentiary, is expected to be released on parole from the prison today." It is further stated that the Parole Board recommends his release and that Attorney General Sargent approves it.
American Negroes, take notice.
Here is a big American white man who is a sure-enough criminal, and no doubt anywhere about it. He used the malls to defraud, not out of ignorance of the law, but to about the law, deliberately knowing all about what he was doing. He sought his own personal profit in the deed.
Marcus Garvey, in truth, was not a criminal, but a misinformed visionary. His organization aimed the use of the malls in it much smaller way than did McCray. Garvey was not seeking profits in a personal business. He was, of course, seeking glory in a visionary cause, and it is most likely true that he hardly understood the legal import of his stock selling.
Garvey has served more than one third of his term, for he not only went to prison before McCray but his term was only five years, while McCray's was ten years. McCray went in last and comes out first, although McCray's term was twice as long as Garvey's.
Garvey was a bigger man, better known around the world than McCray ever could have been, more famous than all the governors of Indiana put together.
And yet Garvey is still in prison while Attorney General Sargent relatively recommends the release of the white man who had ten times more chances than Garvey to know better" and who was a far greater criminal.
Garvey was right: This is certainly a "white man's country."
Whatever Negro editors and other leaders may think of Marcus Garvey, there is but one way for the human brain to think of this obvious partiality of our Department of "Justice." Garvey in this case is not an individual, but a symbol. At the very lowest estimate he deserves as much consid eration as McCray, former "Gov eror of Indiana."
Harlem Detective Nabs Four White Bandits
Four alleged desperate white criminals from New Hampshire, Conn. were caught in Harlem Sunday night by Detective Flinner of the West 135th street station, assisted by Detectives Garvey and Bransfield of the same station. The sensational capture occurred a lenox avenue and 144th street, when the desperados were stopped in a motor car which they are said to have stolen from New Hampshire. Two guns of high caliber were found in the car, the detectives said. The prisoners were Kenneth Macintyre, Henry Miller, Carmyne Parise and Thomas Cailahan, all white, wanted by the police for a long list of burglaries and sensational hold-ups in New Hampshire and Richfield, Conn. The crime quartette was arranged in Heights Court before Madistress Simpson Monday and held in $20,000 ball on charges of burglary, larceny and of being fugitives from justice. They will have a further hearing.

PLUNGES KNIFE INTO HEART OF SICKLY HARLEMITE
Had Boasted, It Is Said, That He Could Kill Man in This Country-and Get Away With It by Being Sent Back to Africa
John Smith, 24, native African, 2448 Seventh avenue, is said to have plunged a knife through the heart of Earl Daniels, 8. 120 West 139th street, who died a few moments later, follwing an argument in Apartment 4 at 148 West 129th street, owned by Susie Davis, about 9:30 a.m. Sunday. Smith was arraigned in Heights Court Monday on a charge of homicide, and Magistrate Vitale held him without bail if a further hearing in Homicide Court.
Both men were said to be friends of Miss Davh and had called there Sunday morning. Miss Davis relates that Smith asked Daniels to engage in a gate of craps and Daniels replied that he did not play the game, ant Miss Davis added that she did not allow the game to be played if her house. This conversation took place in the janitor's quarters in the basement. Smith is said he have asked Miss Davis for 35 cents with which to purchase a pair of dice, insisting all the while that Daniels play the game with him. Miss Davis said she refused to ind Smith the money and he coined to argue with Daniels. Sming trouble, Miss Davis said she summoned the janitor to put Smith out of the house, but he refused to go. She became impatient, she said, and showed him out the loor.
"I can murder anan in this country and get away with it, for I don't belong here. Smith is said to have boasted, "belong in Africa, and if I kill a anan here, this Government, will send me back to my country."
As Smith lingered in the hallway mumbling dire treats, Daniels, who was a sick fellow, told Miss Davis that he was going home. As he entered the hallway Smith lunged at him wha a knife plunging it into his bast. Miss Davis declared that it a happened so quickly that she didn't realize it until she saw Davis's shirt stained with blood.
"I'm stabbed," Danieltmoaned, . . . in the heart, . . . in the heart, . . . Get me a t. quick, . . . and take n to the hospital."
Smith had fled, and Daniels staggered out of the hallway and struggled to Lenox avenue and 129th street, where he wrestled in a taxi by the aid of Paulman Cooke of the West 123d fire station. The taxi had hardly tited under way before he fell ver, dead.
When they arrived at Haem Hospital Dr. Polombo told the it was too late. Daniels' friends and the medical examiner were promptly notified. Smith as placed under arrest shortly a ward by detectives from the Ww 123d street station.

Dismembered Body Was Found at 85 West 134th Street 3 Months Ago
Suffering from a fractured skull that may prove fatal, Joseph Jenkins, 30, a roomer at "the house of tragedy" 85 West 134th street, where a dismembered body was found less than three months ago, lies in Harlem Hospital in a serious condition. Jenkins jumped from the second-story window to the flagstone rear court below. Little hope is held for his recovery. About 6:30 Saturday night Frances Parks, the landlady, hurried to the room after hearing the cries of George Sheldon, Jenkins' roommate. She arrived, she said, just in time to keep Jenkins from jumping out the window. Sheldon aided her in quieting Jenkins, who told them that he was very nervous. No sooner had they gotten him in bed than he leaped to his feet and plunged over the window sill. Mrs. Parks said she grasped his tie to hold him, but it slipped from around his neck as he fell. An ambulance from Harlem Hospital was summoned by Patrolman Quinn of the West 183th street station, and Jenkins was rushed there for treatment. At press time physicians reported Jenkins' condition as improving.
Fails to Identify Man as Assailant
Charged with hitting a man over the head with a glass bottle, Philip Alberti, white, 25, 1046 Fall street, was arrested by Patrolman Matthews of the West 135th street station and arraigned in Heights court Monday morning before Magistrate Vitale, who discharged him when the complaining witness said that he was not the guilty party.
Jeff Blunt, 31, 148 West 129th street, said to be the manager of an establishment at 69 West 133d street, told Matthews that a man hit him over the head with a glass bottle.

Georgia Passes Law Requiring Citizens to Reveal Racial Ancestry
Baltimore Sun Terms It "Most Savage Law Relating to Marriage Ever Enacted"
Copies of the Baltimore Sun reporting the enactment by Georgia of a "savage" law, requiring registration of the ancestry of every person in the state, in order to prevent the marriage of persons of Negro and white antecedents, have been received here. The bill was passed in the last session of the Legislature and has been signed by Gov. L. G. Hardman.
WOMAN FOUND DEAD IN ALLEY; FELL FROM WINDOW
Foul Play Suspected at First, but Police Investigation Fails to Uncover Anything Suspicious
Said to have met death from a fall, Blanche Brown, 25, was found in an alley near her home, 302 West 146th street, by Harold Smith, 206 Edgecombe avenue, about 7:30 a.m. Thursday. Smith called Patrolman John J. White of the West 135th street station, who summoned the ambulance from Harlem Hospital, Dr. Salerno pronouncing the woman dead upon his arrival. The name of William Martin, Apartment 2, 302 West 146th street, is given as a witness.
Enforcement of the law rests with the State Health Department and it is required that the state health officer prepare printed forms on which every citizen of the state must give available information as to the race of his ancestors and any mixture which may have occurred. failure to give correct information being punishable as a felony. Marriage licenses may be refused if proof of the "racial purity" of the applicants is not on file, and the belief is expressed that the law will cause many residents of Georgia to journey to other states in order to be married.

AT 10 a.m. M. Chief Medical Examiner Gonzales arrived and had the body removed from the hospital to the City Morgue, where identification was awaited. Fourteen dollars in cash was found in the woman's shoe, the police said.
Detective M. Moore of the West 135th street station conducted an investigation. At first the police were inclined to the belief that the woman had been murdered and thrown into the alley.
Investigation by the police revealed nothing suspicious, and their report seems to support the medical examiner's belief that the woman met death by falling out of a window.

"Alleghet, it is one of the most savage laws relating to marriage ever enacted. Yet, we are informed:
"Such a measure is absolutely necessary in Georgia, according to its advocates, if white blood is to be kept pure."
"We hear this with mild surprise. We had labored under the impression that white people in Georgia are opposed to marrying Negroes. We had no idea that savage laws are required to prevent them from doing so."

Led by the Rev. Marlon F. Sydes, pastor of Bethel A. M. E. Church; the Rev. J. C. Jackson of Union Baptist Church; R. R. Bunt and W. H. Hicks, editor and business manager of the Hartford Observer; A. J. Allison, secretary of the Urban League; Henry Williams

Body Brought Back From Paris for Burial Here

Lieut. E. E. Thompson
Military funeral services for the late Lieut. E. E. Thompson, former bandmaster of the 36th Infantry Band, who died in Paris, will be held today at 2 o'clock at the Duncan's funeral parlor and at St. Mark's M. E. Church, 188th street and Edgecombe avenue. The Rev. John W. Robinson will officiate.
The body of the deceased arrived here Monday on board the S. S. Leviathan. Charles Thompson, 157 West 133d street, a brother and the only living relative of the deceased, has charge of all arrangements. Interment will be made at Woodlawn.
and others, they met at the office of The Observer on Monday and passed resolutions calling for the immediate suspension of O'Brien from the force and his ultimate punishment.
President Walter Balterson of the Police Board said that he did not recognize the right of anyone to make a race issue out of the slaying of young Wright by O'Brien. "The department is investigating the affair," he added.
Wright was killed when local police and a county detective raided the home of Isaac and Curley Medlock, brothers, at 295 Windsor street, Saturday night. It was alleged that the brothers were operating a still...
Policemen say that Wright escaped through a window when they arrived and when he was pursued he fired several shots at the officers, who returned the fire. A bullet pierced Wright's heart. He died instantly.
The gun which Wright was alleged to have used has not yet been found, the officers admitted.
In a letter to The Currant, the Rev. John W. Freeman, rector of St. Monica's P. E. Church, asked: "How could a man shot directly through the heart dispose of his revolver so effectively that it can not be found?"

Inez Reid, 30, 61 West 135th street, lay dead in the living room of Apartment 1 on the ground floor, at 9:30 Monday night, following her murder with a hatchet held in the hand of her husband, Ezekial Reid, 34, who escaped to 16 West 137th street, where he jumped from the fourth story window when detectives attempted to arrest him. Clothes lines in the yard below broke his fall and he suffered nothing more serious than contusions of the back.
Gambling Row Causes Stabbing
Assailant Escapes but Is Captured Few Minutes Later by Detectives
Following an argument over a game of pool, Alfred J. Webb, 25, 20 West 134th street, was stabbed by one Joe White in Johnson's pool room, 62 West 134th street, about ten o'clock Monday night. Webb was taken to Harlem hospital with a stab wound in the back, which was treated by Dr. Stern Patrolman Knowles arrived on the scene just a moment after White escaped. Webb had been playing pool with another man with whom he had made a bet of $5, it is said, and an altercation arose between them. White stepped up to interfere, the police say, and then he and Webb began to fight it out and Webb was stabbed.
Detective Joe Brown, assisted by Detectives Moore and Duane of the West 135th street station, were assigned to apprehend White. Several hours later Detective Brown caught White at Lenox avenue and 122d street and placed him under arrest.
White was, arraigned in Heights Court yesterday morning before Magistrate Simpson on a charge of felonious assault. Physicians aye that Webb will recover, although his condition is serious.
CORRECTIONS
According to Mrs. V. Kelley Ford, owner of 242 West 187th street, no person named Norman Bates lives at her address. He was mentioned on the front page of last week's paper.
No person named Sadie White lives at 232 West 129th street. according to a statement made by G. A. Paris of that address.
Medical Examiner Vance removed the woman's body to the morgue and Reid was treated by Dr. Stern at Harlem Hospital and later transferred to the prison ward at Bellevue Hospital.
According to Louise Rodriguez, who lives in the basement and has been an intimate friend of the Reids for a number of years. Reid had uttered threats upon the woman's life for the past two years. Mrs. Reid, it was said, had continually taunted her husband and often gave him cause for jealousy. Mrs. Rodriguez declared that she was in the apartment with the pair shortly before the murder and that both of them had been drinking. Reid was not yet intoxicated, she said, but Mrs. Reid was very drunk. She heard Reid tell his wife that she had better stop her fooling. It was said that the woman had been "cheating on" Reid, who was a "hard-working man." The clitmax was reached. Mrs. Rodriguez said, when Mrs. Reid made a vulgar request of Reid.
At this point Reid told Mrs. Rodriguez to leave the apartment, and she did so, but returned five minutes later and found the wife murdered, her head nearly severed, from her body. On her way to the apartment, she passed Reid in the street with his poodle dog under his arm, she said.
Police were notified at the West 15th street station, and Detectives Duana Moore and Winterhatter and a half-dozen others, including a captain, rushed to the murder scene. Patrolman Reilly, however, was the first to reach the scene, where more than a thousand people were crowded around the doorway or hanging out on the fire escape windows.
Reid was captured and taken to Harlem Hospital, where he was fingerprinted. He is said to have confessed to the crime, but would give no motive. Mrs. Rodriguez was taken to the station house and cross-examined. An entire squad of policemen were necessary to disperse the crowd, which began to thicken again when the "dead wagon" called to remove the body. Police declare it to be one of the most brutal murders in the history of Harlem, almost rivalling that of the dismembering of the body of John Henry by his common-law wife, Geecheeters Glascoe, a few months ago.

Some of the intricate financial desnags in the final payoff. One bill tha ing the committee concern is that paid Casper Holstein.

The actual deficit to be paid by local Elk lodges, which amount was engendered by the holding here of the Grand Lodge session, will be around $15,000. All bills will be paid, it is reported, and the less sustained by the three lodges that formed the Entertainment Committee, Monarch, Imperial and Manhattan Lodges.
Some of the intricate financial details are apt to bit snags in the final payoff. One bill that is said to be giving the committee concern is that paid to Perry Howard by Casper Holstein. The bill, it is claimed, was paid by Mr. Holstein without authorization on the part of the New York committee, and was allged to have been paid for legal services performed by the Wilson attorneys.
At the grand lodge session, $5,000 voted to the local committee by the grand lodge committee for legal fees and out of this sum, it was expected, so the story goes, that the $2,500 spent by Mr. Holstein would be returned to him.
It was also believed that the $2,000 advanced by him to the local committee as expenses for the committee sent by the New Yorkers to Chicago, would also be paid, leaving the local committee but $500 out of the $5,000.
Strenuous objection has been raised to this procedure and it is likely that considerable smoke will be raised before the matter is adjusted.
As it now stands, the grand secretary, George E. Bates, is not likely to draw the check for some time.
Another interesting item was the $6,000 granted by the grand lodge to the New York legal committee. This money was received by Attorneys Pope Billups and Francis Rivers as their fees for legal services. Some discussion was raised also as to the regularity of this, in view of the fact that the local committee had already advanced that committee $2,500 for expenses. However, the legal committee will be obliged to spend much of the $6,000 for obligations incurred.
One important feature of the convention will be the staying on the hand wagon of imperial and Monarch Lodges. The big men in those two lodges say that they are tired of being outside the administration and from now on they will be with Finley Wilson and the powers that be in the order.
Former Asylum Inmate Killed Battling Police
EVANSVILLE. Ind. Sept. 5.—The body of Wesley Cooksey, riddled with bullets, was dragged from his burning home here tonight after dozens of tear bombs had been hurled into the house.
Five policemen who attempted to enter the place after Cooksey threatened to kill his wife were wounded, two seriously. Cooksey held the officers at bay for three hours. Police set fire to the house in an effort to drive him out.
Chief of Police Harry Anderson was shot in the hand, Edward Gutkerman, chief of detectives, was shot in the abdomen and is in a serious condition. Ray Langzford, patrolman, is in a serious condition with a bullet wound in the head. It is believed both will recover, however. Cooksey at one time was an inmate of all asylum.

First shampoo the hair and dry it thoroughly. Next heat a large-toothed metal comb. Then apply a Gold (Golden) Brown is used exclusively by our Group). Now roll the hair so that a few strands at a time can be straightened. Draw the heated metal comb from the root ends to the tip ends—so this with quick, careful strokes. To straighten short hair use the back or front side of the heated comb.
Occasionally a letter comes to me stating that the metal comb is not satisfactory. In which case a good pressing iron will work. Which is also heating, apply Golden Brown Hair Dressing Liberally. Next draw a few strands at a time through the not end surfaces of the iron. No matter how coarse the hair, how unruly it may be, I have just described it most effective. It improves hair beauty quickly—removes dandruff, restores glossiness, giving your hair that beautiful, well-groomed appearance which is your rightful hairline.

Parlor Cars Land Pair in Cahoose Railway Police Find Man Asleep in Drawing
Parlor Cars Land Pair in Cahoose Railway Police Find Man Asleep in Drawing
Love of parlor car luxury landed two men in jail last week. Leonard De Derness, 25, 34 West 129th street, was arrested in a parlor car in the railroad yard at 155th street and Morris avenue, by Special Officer Doney of the State Railway police, who found him near the linen closet, and could show no authority for being there. De Derness was arraigned in Night Court before Magistrate Well who held him for probationary investigation until the next day. De Derness said he was in the linen business, which inclined the magistrate to the belief that he was in the car "on business," although De Derness insisted that he only entered the car to get a drink of water.
Preferring drawing-room comfort to park bench stiffness, Charles Evans, 28, no home, was found sleeping peacefully at 2:10 a.m. Thursday morning in the drawing room of a car in the New York Central Railroad yards at Sheridan avenue and 158th street. Evans stated his preference for sleeping quarters to John Leonard, state railway officer, who took him next day to Morrisania Court, where Magistrate Smith gave him a home in the Workhouse for thirty days. Police records show that Evans spent a similar visit there in January, 1925, at the suggestion of Judge Barrett.

When You Buy FURNITURE
You may roughly divide furniture into two classes:
1—That furniture which is made to sell.
2—That furniture which is made to ensure service and satisfaction to the buyer.
Obviously there is a dividing line between the two. Frankly, that furniture which is made to sell is, well, made to sell. There is no assurance of permanent satisfaction to the buyer attached to it.
It is the most expensive kind of furniture that the customer can possibly purchase, for it has but a short life. How much more intelligent is the course which actuates the purchaser to buy only those grades of furniture which, after years of service, remain staunch and untouched by the scars that inevitably stamp themselves upon the products of inferiority. The Riley-Hogan policy is never to misrepresent. You may accept our recommendations and advice as furniture gospel. For we sell furniture that is dependable. And behind this looms the fact that our prices are competitive with those of any house in New York, and in frequent instances considerably lover.

The girl ignored the remark and Silver came out of the store with the advice that Taylor had better stick to colored girls. That's how the argument started and that's how the men came to be arrested. In court Taylor said his remark was not meant for Miss Brown, but he was found guilty and sentenced. The girl told the magistrate that Briggs was not guilty of anything more than a smile, and

Last Tuesday night Murphy went for the Lynn police headquarters and asked for a night's lodging. His stabby but well-cared-for clothes and his dignified and intelligent manner impressed the officers on duty. They told him at the station they would be obliged to charge him with vagrancy if they kept him at the station. He answered to this, saying he had walked the streets looking for work, but that his rheumatism had finally overcome his strength.
He was given a meal at the station before they placed him in a cell. When officers searched his clothing they discovered he had exclaimed one cent and a jack-knife. The following story of Murphy's life was told in court Wednesday.

Forbidden Pleasures
Just like Adam and Eve were punished for eating forbidden fruit, so do a vast number of men and women, both young and old, suffer today because they lack strength. Dissipation has weakened many so they can no longer withstand the slightest exertion—others were born weak and have never known how to build their bodies so they could take advantage of the many pleasures they seek. There is no excuse for anyone crying for health, and strength—everyone can enjoy life—

Nobody seems to want an old man last night I was down to my last penny when I went to the police for help." Mr. Murphy was released from the charge of vagrancy. He sat out, according to a promise he made to police, to visit Lynn employment agencies in search of work. Police say they will give him every possible aid in finding a job.

Chauffeur Arrested for Selling Liquor in Maine
PORTLAND, Me., Sept. 5.
The arrest of Fred W. Hopler of New York City, a chauffeur for Mrs. Isabella Loring, a wealthy New York woman, halted the sales of liquor at Proust's Neck, a summer colony of millionaires, Federal agents said, last Tuesday.
Hopler, charged with sales of rum to agents and the possession and transportation of liquor in Mrs. Loring's $3,000 limousine, waived hearing and pleaded not guilty before United States Commissioner Jacob H. Berman. He gave $1,600
hall to the September form of the district court.
The car was seized with liquor and later returned to the owner by order of District Attorney Frederick H. Dyer, who said he was satisfied that she knew nothing of Hopper's alleged transactions.
Complaints that a chauffeur was selling liquor at the summer colony sent Henry P. Weaver of the dry force to the scene Sunday. He declared he made purchases of whiskey and gin from Hopper for $4 a bottle, and arranged for delivery of a case of liquor. This delivery, it is alleged, was made by Hopper in the limousine on the Higgins Beach road. His arrest followed.
God's Blessing Asked for Finder of Lost Pay
"May God bless him who found my pay and guide him in the use of it," was the exhortation of Spencer Jenkins, houseman employed at the home of Assistant District Attorney Robert C. Taylor, 16 East 83rd street, when there were no answers to an advertisement he inserted in newspapers. Saturday morning after he had lost his month's pay of $87.50. Jenkins was paid on Friday and he put the money in a pocket in which he afterward found a hole.

ARTIST SAILS FOR STUDY IN EUROPE
Otto H. Kahn, International Banker, Finances Winner of Harmon Prize
Sale of Several Pictures Assured by Indianapolis Art Dealer - Promises to Get in Touch With Palmer C. Hayden, Another Prize Winner
Hale Woodruff, a 27-year-old artist of Indianapolis, sailed for Europe Saturday on the Paris for two years of study in France, Italy and Spain, financed by the winning of a recent award in art, the promised sale of pictures yet to be painted and a contribution from Otto H. Kahn of New York.
FOUR
Sketching since he was a small child, Woodruff received his first national recognition last December when he was given the second award in art of the William E. Harmon Awards for Distinguished Achievement Among Negroes. This was in the first year of a series of awards which the Harmon Foundation of New York is granting for outstanding creative contributions by American Negroes. Entries for this year's awards in the fields of art, literature, education, religious service, music, science, business and race relations closed on August 15. Announcement of successful candidates will be made on January 1, 1928, by Dr. George E. Haynes, secretary of the Commission on the Church and Race Relations of the Federal Council of Churches, who is administering the awards for the Foundation.
in his nomination to second place, Woodruff's work, as well as that of candidates in all the other fields of award, was compared with the Coast of its kind which had been achieved by white artists and judged by a group of persons eminent in the world of art. He received $100 and a bronze medal. This money formed the nucleus for a fund which he hoped to raise for a long-desired European trip. His work as a jailor in the Y. M. C. A. at Indianapolis and later as membership secretary gave him little extra funds over what was needed to carry on his study in the John Herron Art Institute.
Most of the five paintings which he submitted for the Harmon Award he was able to sell and an exhibit in the Leiber Galleries at Indianapolis led Harmon Leiber, the owner, to promise to sell to the extent of one a month such pictures as Woodruff might paint while in Europe. This nearly completed his financial arrangements for study while abroad, the final assistance being given by Otto H. Kahn, of New York, who learned of Woodruff from Walter White, assistant secretary of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People.
Woodruff sailed in a third-class cabin. His plans after his arrival are indefinite as yet, but he will first get in touch with Palmer C. Harden, Greenwich Village house cleaner, who won the first Harmon Award in Art, and was subsequently financed for two years' study abroad through a gift of $3,000 from an anonymous individual.
Woodruff was born in Cairo, IL. His father's death when he was a small child threw the burden of support upon his mother, who has been employed as a cook in New York and other cities. She is now the patron of a hospital at North Angeles, Calif. Woodruff himself worked his way through grammar and high school, doing odd jobs and waiting on table.

Truck Driver Says He Saw Chauffeur's Car Fell
Following a five-mile chase on Boston road early last week, Eiffle West, 29, 37 Roslyn place, Mount Vernon, was placed under arrest by Patrolman Murphy, stationed in a patrol booth at Boston and Gun Hill roads, and arraigned in West Farms Court, before Magistrate Vitale, who held him in $3,000 bail for a hearing last Friday on charge of felonious assault.
Herman Zarftsky, white, a truck driver, 978 Tinton avenue, near 165th street, testified that he saw West's Willis-St. Clare roadster strike a woman at 172d street, in the excitement the woman is said to have disappeared in the crowd and the extent of her injuries, if any, have not been determined.
Zurilsky said that West threatened to kill anyone in the crowd who came near him, but invited him to hop on the running board and accompany him to the police station to report the incident.
After driving around the block, Zurilsky declared that West drew a gun on him and drove him off the running board, while the car sped north on the boulevard, turning north at 17th street to Boston road. Zurilsky said he persuaded a passing autist to take up the chase and was joined by Patrolman Murphy when they reached the patrol booth.
West is said to have been traveling at the rate of 55 miles per hour, and was not caught up with until they reached Baychester avenue, where a southbound truck is said to have impeded further progress. Zariktsky said he positively identified West as the man who struck the unidentified woman, as he was driving directly behind West's car. A thorough search of West's car failed to find any trace of the revolver he is said to have pointed at Zariktsky. In court West denied the charges.

Father-Son-in-Law Row Nearly Fatal
Controversy Started Over Wife of Alleged
Assailant
Following an argument with his father-in-law, Charles Bruce, 39, cannaker, at 672 Crotona Park South, is not expected to live from the bullet wounds inflicted by Jeremiah Thomas, 1802 Crotona avenue, stepfather of Charity Bruce, common-law wife of Bruce, over whom the alteration is said to have arisen. Thomas was placed under arrest and charged with felonious assault. The woman was also arrested.
According to the story told to detectives Daly of the Simpson street station, and Nelson and McArdle of the Bathgate avenue station, who were summoned by tenants who were freightened by the sound of the shots, the three were gathered in the quarters of the Brutes Thursday night. It is said that treble had been brewing for some time between Thomas and Bruce, who thought that Thomas was paying too much attention to his stepdaughter. An argument arose on this point, it is reported, and resulted in the near-fatal shooting. Bruce was placed in a taxicab and rushed to the Bronx Hospital, where he was treated by Dr. Bull of Lincoln Hospital and later removed to that institution. Detectives found Thomas in the cellar at his home and arrested him. In his possession they found a revolver (that had recently been fired, they said).
Thomas and Mrs. Bruce were arerained in Morrissana Court Friday. Physicians say that Bruce will recover.

SLEUTH TELLS OF "CONFIDENCE" MEN
Detective Winterhalter Reviews Long Experience With Swindlers
Detective Winterhalter Reviews Long Experience With Swindlers
Speaks of Bill Raisers, "C. O. D." Schemes, Policy, "Stolen" Goods, and Sundry Gag Games Used by "Con" Men
The recent arrest of a Harlem swindler, charged with working the old "con game" on another Harlemite, caused intensive Emil Winterhalter of the West 135th street station to wax reminiscent and review the past fifteen years, during which time he has handled every type of criminal case in Bortham, from petty pillering to "crokin' a guy."
The ancient "pocketbook gag" is still a favorite among "con men." Winterhalter declares, in which a "come-on" drops a wallet in the sight of a stranger and in the presence of the "con man," who enters a claim for a split of the contents, which appear to be a small fortune, the "con man" offering to sell his share for, say, $50, and some times more.
One woman (and many others for that matter) actually went to the bank and drew out $145 and paid it to a "con man" who gave for a wallet containing a "fortune" which consisted of a $10 bill wrap put around a nickel's worth of newspaper.
BILL RAISERS.
Is the C. O. D. method perpetrated by clipping obituaries from the newspapers and addressing packages containing cheap articles to the deceased. One fellow got away with this plan for a year, but now he's serving time in Atlanta prison, Winterhalter recalls.
The C. O. D. charges were from $4 to $8 for a 40-cent article, and the package would arrive during the busy funeral arrangements, and the mourners would pay the bill without question. POLICY GAMES. Policy gambling, said Winterhalter, separates more people from their cash than any other form of swindling, aside from its being against the law. This is a form of lottery in which the better attempts to guess the last four figures in the "clearing house number," which is the total amount of checks cleared daily by the New York Clearing House from all member banks, and usually runs into billions.
When the better wins, which rarely occurs, and attempts to collect, he usually finds that the banker is "blue," meaning that he has blown the town to parts unknown, where he again sets up in business.
The "stolen goods" graft is another profitable source of easy money for crooks, said Winterhalter. "Be warned of the 'con man' who approaches you too confidentially and whisperes that he has silk shirts, furs, raincoats, indies' wear and other things to sell you cheap. Such conferences usually occur in hallways, where one receives the 'secret' information that the goods have been stolen, or that the pseudo-merchant is a driver, and that in loading cases some of the goods fell off and were 'savaged.' The buyer finally awakens to the truth that the material he bought is worth about one-third what he paid for it, and that it wasn't stolen at all.
LAUNDRY GAG.
"The laundry gag is also common," said Winterhalter, and proceeded to outline the details of it. A tenant in an apartment hears the dumbwaiter bell ring and looking down the shaft bears a man yell up that he has some laundry for her. He says the bill is from $3 to $5 and puts the laundry on the dumbwaiter with the understanding that the tenant will put the money on when she takes the laundry off. The "con man" pulls down the dumbwaiter hurriedly, takes the money off, and the housekeeper unwraps the bundle to find it full of rags.
"However, it's a great life," said Winterhalter. "If you're not too greedy, and that's where we come in."

Winterhalter also recalls a supposedly shrewd merchant who was induced to part with $15,000 to a "con man," who showed him how to raise the denomination of $1 bills to $50 by merely pouring a little chemical on them. The hand being quicker than the eye, the adept "con man" switches the real thing in place of the $1 bill. "C. O. D." SCHEMES. Another adept "money raiser"

"Black Herman,"Magician, Held for Trial in Special Sessions as 'Quack"
"Black Herman,"Magician, Held for Trial in Special Sessions as 'Quack"
Charged With Practising Medicine Without License Attorney Lavelle and Magistrate Douras in Wordy Tilt
Herman Rucker, magician and printer, better known to Harlemites as "Black Herman," 39. 119 West 136th street, was given a hearing in Heights Court Friday before Magistrate Douras, who made out a prima facie case against him of practicing medicine without a license, in violation of Section 1203 of the Educational Law, and sent the case to Special Session for final disposition. Bail was set at $1,000.
An additional charge of fortune telling remained against Rucker, on which bail was set for a further hearing yesterday.
Policewoman Nettie Sweetman of the Eighteenth Division was the complainant. Rucker's attorneys were Louis A. Lavelle and Joseph Weil, son of Magistrate Weil, who refused to hear the case when it came up before him some time ago, because his son defended Rucker.
Bond was furnished by Junius M. Green, 168 West 136th street.
The hearing was marked by a stormy tilt between Attorney Lavelle and Magistrate Douras, who threatened to charge Lavelle with disorderly conduct. Attorney Well took no part in the controversy.
According to Policewoman Sweetman, she visited Rucker at his offices on May 23, and was told that she was suffering from appendicitis, high blood pressure and gas. She testified that he placed his hand on her side and mumbled some untelligible words. She was then given a dark fluid in a large bottle, labeled "Black Hermann's Body Tonic," with directions to rub it on her side, under the arms and behind the ears, she said. The "body tonic" was accompanied by another smaller bottle containing what seemed to be a similar fluid, and the price charged, it is said, $5, which she said she paid.
The element of superstition was liberally disclosed in the affidavit of the charge of fortune telling, wherein is revealed Black Hermann's method of regaining the lost love of a lonely wife.
Upon the occasion of the policewoman's several visits to Rucker's office, Rucker is said, to have told her to take the scrapings from the soles of her feet, and, with other ingredients, to place them in the husband's food; sprinkle in the four corners of the room and on the bed a strange liquid from a strange bottle and to lay certain roots against the husband's body. Also, she is said of have been given for magic purposes a certain

root by the awesome name of "John the Conquerer." On the witness stand Rucker completely denied all charges of fortune telling, and produced a license to show that he was permu-
In the complaint given to District Attorney John H. Banton on July 9, it is charged that Rucker's name does not appear in the published list of registered physicians as required by law.
Attorney Lavelle sought to show that Rucker was as genuine and dignified a magician as the late Houdini and decried the court's apparent efforts to picture him as a cheap fortune teller. Rucker himself told the court that magic was his profession.
The court ruled that the people had established against Rucker a prima facia case, and Attorney Lavelle told the magistrate that he was biased and prejudiced, and demanded a new trial. His motion was denied, and Magistrate Douras threatened to charge Lavelle with disorderly conduct for his temerity in questioning the sincerity and offending the dignity of the court. The hearing proceeded in an atmosphere that was electrically charged, ending in Lavelle being told that he was a stubborn proposition. "You make yourself obnoxious to all the judges," said Magistrate Douras. "Don't let it happen again." This occurred following Lavelle's statement that he would apologize if a committee of the Bar Association found him in error.
Following Rucker's first arraignment before Magistrate Well on June 11, the case was adjourned to June 15, 29, July 18, August 19, the case being finally heard last Friday.

THE WOMAN WHO WAS THE LADY OF THE WORLD
Miss Zora Neale Hurston
After spending six months in all parts of Florida and a few weeks in Mobile, Ala., Miss Zora Neale Hurston, 43 West Sixty-sixth street, returned home last Tuesday night. She was accompanied in her car by Langston Hughes from Tuskegee, Ala.
Miss Hurston was chosen by Dr. Franz Boas of the department of anthropology, Columbia University, to collect Negro folk songs and stories in Florida. She was chosen later by Dr. Carter G. Woodson to get material on the African colony near Mobile for the Negro History Society. Her stories are many and interesting concerning interviews with Cudjo Lewis, who is nearly 100 years old, and who is the only living member of the group of 116 brought from the Tribe of Takkoi in August, 1859.
Miss Hurston, a short story writer of note, was married to Herbert A. Sheen in Florida on May 19. He, a senior medical student at the University of Chicago, has come to New York to live. They met each other at Howard University years ago.

secret of the LINIT Beauty Bath. After your LINIT Bath, powdering is unnecessary as LINIT leaves just the right amount of powder on the skin, evenly spread, without excess. You will find that LINIT adheres well, absorbs perspiration without caking, eliminates oil shine on body, hands and face, prevents chafing and affords protection to hands and face against wind and sun.
Whether your skin is the dry or oily type, a LINIT Bath is equally effective.
LINIT is so easy to use—when put in water it dissolves immediately—that's all there is to it—bathing as usual, does the rest.
LINIT is a pure vegetable product—its natural color is white and it is not disguised by added color or odor.

What Clippers Can Do
Where is the woman who hasn't a friend? For her this talk will mean little, but to all others—much. Two young girls put their heads together and decided to get a pair of hair clippers between them. They watched the barber closely as he plied his trade and learned the way he used them. Now they make trips to the costly shop but seldom and find hobbied hair much less expensive to keep. This is the secret: the girls trim each other's neck and thus keep their necks daily most perfectly groomed. Those fine hairs that grow down the neck and give such an unkempt appearance to the toilet are forever kept away. If you have a hobbled-hair friend, try this.

Freeport Will Not Have New Republican Club
Frederick R.

Mr. Jones said that he had been in conference with Frank Graham, sponsor of the county organization, and it was pointed out it would be matter of only a little time before the club was established, a centre in Freeport. It is believed by both Mr. Jones and Mr. Graham that more can be accomplished with one club taking in all Nassau County than by a number of separate organizations.

Brooklyn Boy Sent to Elmira
Found Guilty of Third Degree Burglary Last Tuesday
The fact that he was little more than a boy in the judgement of County Judge Alonzo G. McLaughlin, save Milton Brown, I, of 423 Summer avenue, from getting a long term in Sing Sing on Tuesday, Aug. 30. He had been found guilty of a charge of burglary in the third degree and was sent to the reformatory at Elmhurst.
According to the police, Brown confessed to many robberies. The specific charge against Brown was that on July 13, last he forced an entrance into the home of Marcus Friedman, white, at 712 Montgomery street, obtained jewelry, and cash of a total value of $84. He was accompanied by another boy named Brown, who was no relation of his. The other boy was Alfred Brown, 15, of 34 Marion street. Milton Brown at the time of his arrest gave his address as 169 Atlantic avenue. The boys were arrested by Detectives James Hunt and Patrolman Frank Fink, white, and Bunny Bobold, stationed at 3 o'clock in the morning, after a chase through Union street near Albany avenue, and were caught after a number of shots: were fired over their heads. In passing sentence Judge McLaughlin said:
"I appreciate that he is little more than a boy, but I am also aware of the fact that this youth, in the dead of night while people were sleeping there, made his way into five different homes. There is little reason to show mercy to one guilty of such a crime. Were this defendant older I would give him a long sentence in Sing Sing. I am sending him to Elmira, not only as a punishment, but also as the one place where he will be subjected to training and discipline that may check what might otherwise be a career of crime." In confessing his burglaries, Brown stated.
"We wore sneakers and would creep on our hands and knees after getting into a house. We lifted the screen out of the windows, and I always made for the bedroom. First I would look for the pants and search them for money. Then I would go to the dresser and take the jewelry I'd find. People didn't wake up. If they did wake up, they were too scared to come after you." The Brown boys were accused by the police of being responsible for forty burglaries in the Empire. On the night of the arrest they had the police of the Empire boulevard station on the jump all night. The boys admitted that they had entered five houses that evening and their total loot was $51 in cash and $1,000 worth of jewelry.

Has Taught Other Jersey Town Lessons in Economy
LAWYFIELD, N. J., Sept. 6—The first anniversary of the corporate existence of Lawnshire, where Nogness rule, was celebrated today. Mayor James Himmings, who serves without pay and makes his living as an expert steam roller pilot in his spare time, went cheerfully to the seashore this morning for a rest. New Jersey Legislature gave last year the community of 2,000 Nogness and 40 white parrots corporate existence. Politicians — principally white ones — forsaw extravagance, corruption and wasted a result. Today, although some troublesome problems of taxation and prohibition have arisen, the whole experiment has been highly successful. Lessons in economy have been taught by the Mayor and Councilmen, who underwent no pay; the auditor, the solicitor of $250 a year; the venerable clerk serve for $250 a year; the venerable police receive no pay; the six stalwart policemen support themselves by odd jobs.
"Total administrative expenditures for the year were only $6,825, which Borough Clerk Horace Bryant can record for the State. Unfortunately, the revenues were consol'ed below this sum. Not all of the citizens of Lawnside hung grasped the principles of on. "They will buy music," Mr. Brown "but they will not pay taxes." Drastic Action Frowned On. The drastic suggestion has been made to sell the property of recalcitrants for taxes, including music, if necessary. The calmer counsel of the majority, however, favors meeting the situation in such succeeding year by a bond issue, any legal measures for the collection of taxes would be out of harmony with the easy good-will of Lawnside, but the mathematically inclined, including Mr. Brown and Mr. Bryant, point out that such measures eventually will be necessary.
Prohibition is a thorn in the side to Lawnside officials. Councilman President Brown, who had today off from his duties as chauffer to a family in nearby Haddon Heights, discussed the question frankly as he rocked on the front porch of his home.
"There are four bootleggers in Lawnside," he said. "I'm strong for law enforcement, but it's hard to tell just what exactly to do with it. Their customers won't make complaint against them. Course, I would go there and drink myself, but I would be in keeping." And if I did go there drunk their liquor, would it be in keeping for me to complain against them? That's the big question. Would it be in keeping?"
Mayor Hemmings is in an even more difficult position. His attitude toward law enforcement has been assailed by a member of his own family. His brother-in-law, Charles Whittington, openly asserted the Mount Pisgah Affiliate school of Mount Pisgah Church that the Mayor has invited to wink at violators of the law. In reply, Mayor Hemmings pointed to the splendid record of Lawside. Not a man had been arrested for drunkenness by the Lawside volunteer police. Aside from these questions of taxation and prohibition, which harass all governments in America, conditions in Lawside are almost ideal. The community has a fine, modern, eight-room schoolhouse. Its 248 pupils, from the 19th grade, are making creditable loans. It has not yet arrested public buildings, but the largest room of the school makes an admirable Council Chamber.
90 Per Cent Own Their Homes. The borough has competent doctors and very little illness. It is pleasantly located near the White Horse pike, which leads from Philadelphia to Atlantic City. Its property has an average square mile of property more than half a million dollars. Ninety per cent of its citizens own their own homes. The twoscore of white persons who live on the fringe of the borough are represented by a white Councilman, J. W. Smith, and have no complaints against the administration of the borough. The borough has a comfortable hotel, operated by the hospitable William Willis, and a park, swimming pool and boating pond. The serpent of politics, however, threatens to enter this Garden of Eden with the next Mayoralty election. Already the friends of John Brown are booming him for the of

do. No one questions the honesty or ability of Mayor Hammings. All units in praising his skill with steam roller lifts. He is not an ordinary steam roller engineer. He is especially employed by the Burial Asphalt Company of Philadelphia in a demonstrator of new roller lifts. An Clark Bryant expresses, "Mayor Hammings can make a steam roller do everything but talk." The chief objective urged by his opponents is that he is not an operator. If the Mayor himself cannot furnish order, they ask, what hazards of public occasions. But Mayor Hammings is quietly up building in the organization and has little understanding more than one kind of steam roller. The borough is well equipped with fraternal orders. It has branches of the national orders and has organized two local fraternal groups—the Good Samaritans and the Fishermen of Guilfoyle. They are now seeking to establish a lodge of the Eiks.
Shriners' Session Ends With Dance
The twentieth annual session of the Nobles of the Mystic Shrine which began Sunday, August 25 at Bethany Baptist Church at Bethany Baptist Church night, August 25, when the Daughters of Isla gave a tarwil reception at Dreamland Academy, Beacon street, Newark. Nearby, the name address of Lichtenstein Colony Thomas J. L. Brang of the New Jersey National Guard, who represented the Governor, was one of the high spots of the convention. Baker departed from the usual stereotyped welcome speech and in a short, frank speech reached the hearts of the gathering.

Initials on Belt Betray Fugitive
Vanity in having his five-inch belt sanded with his initials caused the downfall of William T. Coey. He was arrested Wednesday in Newark on a charge of being a fugitive from justice from New York City. For two years at intervals officers have been seeking Coey, it is said, who is charged with leaving New York State after being indicted for abandonment of children in March. Receiving a tip that Coey, known as Slim, was frequenting the lumber yards in the vicinity of South street station of the Pennsylvania Railroad, the officers watched the neighborhood. The officers spotted the tall man who described sent there from New York stranger wore a belt on the bank of which were the initials "W. T. C." in brass studs. It was Coey, "Say, Slim," the officer called, without revealing his identity, "what are those initials for?" "That's my name, William T.
"It is, eh? Don't you know you
are wanted in New York State for
the abandonment of your chil-
dren?"
"Sure, I do," answered Coey,
with an air of nonchalance.

Jimmie Doyle Says That Jack McVey Outpointed Latzo Wednesday Night
Also Claims That White Fighter Got Bargain Rates When Cleveland Judges and Johnny Kilbane Called Bout a Draw
(By James E. Doyle)
Ivey, that bliss, that delight,

that sort of mind, when take

the brown belter, though he

lauto could have dispensed
with or eight pounds of
irred and made a new
job of it.
He wasn't bad, at all he
he was very, very good.
He took it upon himself
opportunity it seemed to the
cities that a portion
of audience was just so much
sured that he had to travel rather than at the centre at tip that he might have shown in been down to 150, or there were. There was no sparing on McGee's part during those twelve interesting rounds. No sparing, repulsion of him. His was a stoaly, technical even pace, a winning pace for all the records will have to win him.
They lay away evenly, with time to choose between the first or two; Howkeway or two more, though I thought McVey was beginning to gain a bit of an edge by that time. They wrapped into it right properly in the fifth. McVey grabbing an early advantage with those rapid, stom-like lefts to the body as late as retaliating, to square with rights to the jaw.
Latz Aimless Claims One.
Latz's right still was working
chemically in the sixth, one of his
very best rounds. But McVey
was sitting, either; he never
do the seventh and eighth were
all McVey and the ninth was his
though he landed a low left
hand that caused Latzto make a
half-heated claim of foul.
Kil and wouldn't stand for that.

He ordered Latzo to continue fighting the Latzo mixing rights to the law with a double-fisted attack to the body, broke into a brief lead as the tenth got under way, but McVey was on top at the windup of that fiery frame.
It was Latzo who did the late rallying in the eleventh, after McVey had left-hooked his way to the front once more. And the twelfth was something of a toss-up as well.
Latzo displayed the harder punching power (those right crosses of his are good to look upon but whatever of superiority he showed in that respect, what all other angles are considered, enitled him to no part of a draw.
Lazzo slipped on the damp canvas near his corner and almost went to the floor under a hard left to the chest in the teeth. That was the closest either came to a knockdown, though both were shaken up on several occasions. Eight thousand customers liked the main go, even as they appeared so fancy every other shindy on the program.
New York Braves Swamped Buffaloes
Buck Harris piloted his slugging Braves to an easy defeat against the Buffaloes A. C. by the score of 21-10 on Sunday.
The Buffaloes tried their entire pitching staff in vain, and at the ending of the six innings the Braves had slaughtered three of their pitchers.
"Rabbit! Percy, Braves insider, contributed to the slugging match by hitting two homers, one of them with the bases filled.
There was some fashionable throwing by Leon Knight, while his teammates all contributed at least one hit each.

GQDFREY TO MEET MUNN
The world of sport having read and digested George Godfrey's quick knockout of Maloney some weeks ago in Philadelphia, will turn its eyes to Ebbaet Field on the night of Sept. 14, when Godfrey crawls through the ropes to meet Monte Munn in the feature twelve-round bout of the evening. Godfrey's showing in this city in the past hasn't been of the kind to arouse any enthusiasm, but he has apparently stepped into the limelight when he made short shrift of Maloney, and many believe it was the battle which has changed George into a budding monace to the ruler of the heavy-weight division.
Munn has enjoyed his opportunity, being white, for quite some time, but there are enough self-appointed defenders of "Nordic supremacy" in things flastic who believe that despite his poor showing on many an occasion, he is the man to wipe from the flastic map the "Black Shadow of Lieperville."

FLOWERS FEELS VERY CONFIDENT
New Rochelle Lad Says He'll Whip Fast Going South American Tonight
"After what I saw of the Terris-McGraw battle I am sure I can beat both of them," said Bruce Flowers the other day. Bruce has been matched with Stainlaus Loayza for the feature event at Ebbets Field tonight (Wednesday) and the battle has aroused a great deal of excitement among both white and colored followers of boxing. Loayza is known to thousands of former patrons of the Commonwealth, where he came into his own by defeating some of the best men in the lightweight division. The South American was very popular among patrons of the game, who seldom missed a Saturday at the old club when Jess McMahon acted as matchmaker.
"I know that a lot of people are going to believe what I said about whipping Terris and McGraw after I get through with that South American. They tell me that Terris had to go at top speed to score over Loavza. Well, I'll beat him easily and maybe I'll outing him just to show I can beat him at his own game."
Flowers is just bubbling over with confidence. He feels that the other topnotchers in his class are on the slide and that he is coming on at the right time to take them. He wants a return bat to with Louis Kid Kaplan and then is willing to take on Terris, McGraw, Billy Wallace or any other lightweight as fast as they can be disbled up for him. If he cannot get Kaplan again he is going to aim for Terris.

TIGER CLAWS JOE ANDERSON
Hit White Fighter at Will and Had Him in Bad Shape at Finish
Tiger Flowers is going to be a hard man for Mickey Walker to snub fistfully. This the Georgia Doecon proved at Madison Square Garden last Thursday night, when he easily boxed his way to a victory over Joe Anderson of Covington, Kentucky, suh. The battle topped the card at Tex Rickard's home of swat and it was easily the feature offering of the night.
Had the bout been scheduled for more than ten rounds, it is doubtful whether Anderson would have been able to remain upright, for in the tenth Eagles hit the white boy at will and had him in a pretty bad way at the finish.
Flowers, convinced that he is receiving the run-around from the man who took the world's middle-weight title from him with the assistance of a Chicago referee, is determined to tight his way to a position where Mickey Walker will either have to give him a return shot at the title or wear a dented crown. The decision which gave Walker the title was so shady that it necessitated an official investigation which white-washed those robbing the Tiger.
The Tiger was so good against Anderson the white man failed to put up any kind of a showing. The man who had eased into the limelight by his great battle against Shade found himself a toy in the hands of the Deacon. The Tiger hit him with everything but the bucket and the ring posts and it was like sweet music to his ears when Anderson heard the song announcing that hostilities were at an end—for the night at least.
five-nine; James Thomas, New York City, three-six-one, and H. C. Johnson, Windy City, Chicago, three-six-one. Golfers from all parts of the country competed in the top medals and $300 in cash. The tournament was conducted under the auspices of the United States Colored Golfers' Association, of which B. C. Gordon, of Newark, is president. The dinner, Robert Ball, represents the Windy City Association, an organization headquartered in Newark, awarded this evening at the grand hall by Hon. William A. Eastman, of Providence, R. I.

ROY MITCHELL WINS DECISION
Halifax Fighter Breezes Home a Winner Over Philadelphia
BOSTON, Aug. 29—Roy Mitchell, clever hardhitting light heavy-weight from Halifax, won a fast ten-round decision over Tex McEwan of Philadelphia Monday night at the arena.
Mitchell's clean win over the Philadelphia scraper, by no means a set-up, prompted Tom Goodwin, shrewd judge of fighting men and promoter of the Sammy Puller-Johnny Sheppard New England and featherweight championship battle the same night, to serve warning on the fight public to cast a critical eye at Mitchell.
Without a solitary doubt, the colored Apollo from the Provinces is the most feared light heavyweight on the continent. His record, made in the North country, tells the answer for when he was 11 years old he knocked out Bing Toney of Lewiston, who had no trouble staying ten rounds with Paul Berlenbach and Tiger Flowers; knocked out Rocky Roebound Stone; defeated Tommy Robson of Malden; fought a slizzling draw with clever Yale Okun, and battled Mike McTigue down to the last wire.
The result has been that white light heavyweights have refused to meet the colored star, and for months he has remained ill here in Boston, while Goodwin has approached every light heavyweight of note in the land, only to be turned down. Perhaps memories of Sam Langford and George Dixon, two other Negro stars who came from Nova Scotia, drove prospective opponents away. Perhaps the stories that Okun and McTigue and the others have told about his great punching power had their effect. His win over McEwan will place the young colored star on the top of the card, fighting in main houts and making history, as did Langford and Dixon, is the prediction of Mr. Goodwin.

BERMUDIANS WIN SIXTH
BERMUDIANS WIN SIXTH
Game Against St. Kitts Awarded Them on Technicality Sunday
Again passing the second century and compiling a total score of 226, for the loss of six wickets, at which time they declared their innings closed, the visiting cricketers from Bermuda dismissed the opposing St. Kitts eleven for seventy-six and scored the sixth victory of their tour before a crowd of 2,500 persons at New York Oval on Sunday.
The tourists had the better of it in all departments of the game, but had a narrow escape from a draw. Nine of the St. Kitts were down and only four minutes were left in which to play. Failure on the part of the last batsman to take his place at the wickets within the allotted time of two minutes caused the umpire to award the game to Bermuda.
C. Philpott gave another splendid exhibition of batting in behalf of Bermuda and, despite the best efforts of the St. Kitts bowlers, put together the useful total of fifty-eight before he was caught out. Every one of the other Bermuda batsmen reached double figures. Next to Philpott, the best scores were those of Eric Rust, thirty-one, and Alma Hunt and E. Swainson, each twenty-five. R. Richardson and A. Hayward led off with nineteen apiece, while E. Durant and Alma Hunt contributed seventeen each.
The bowling of W. Simmons in behalf of Bermuda was the chief stumbling block for the St. Kitts batsmen, of whom N. Yearwood, R. Yearwood and E. H. Margetson alone reached double figures. Simmons captured four wickets for seventeen runs and Alma Hunt two for twelve.

LINCOLN ISSUES CALL TO "GRID"
Prospect of Formidable Lion Team More Favorable This Season
LINCOLN UNIVERSITY, Sept.
15. Active preparations have al-
ready begun for the forthcoming
football season at Lincoln. Dr.
"Ted" Morrison, the new coach,
has been on the grounds since the
first of August, and is getting
ready for the arrival of the pro-
spective members of the squad.
A call has been sent out to 25
men to report on September 10
to begin preliminary practice. A
new pit, a new tackling dummy, a
new bucking machine have been
installed and it is likely that the
location of the present football
field will be changed to the other
end of the campus where the baseball
field is now located.
A large number of new men who have made excellent reputations at other schools as football stars have registered for entrance this year, and the prospects of a formidable "Lion" machine are more favorable than for several years past.
Lincoln will have to get in good shape very early because of the unusually hard schedule which has been arranged. The first game will be with A. & T. College at Greensboro, N. C., on September
30. This will be followed by a game with "Union," probably in Norfolk, on October 8. On October 15, Baltimore will be the scene of a struggle with Hampton and on October 21 the "Lions" will meet Virginia Seminary, probably on the campus at Lincoln. Lincoln will play Tuskegee in Philadelphia at the National League jerk on Saturday, October 29. On November 6 the "Lions" will travel, to Charleston, W. Va., for a struggle with West Virginia Institute. On November 12 Shaw will be played at Raleigh, and on November 24 (Thanksgiving Day), the Annual Classic with Howard will be played in Philadelphia at the American League Park.

MISS Florence Mills will arrive here soon on the jantzit now French Mairie "Jolie de France," after a most successful appearance in many of the countries of the old world.
FLORENCE Mills took advantage of the love of the Europeans for her by never allowing an opportunity to pass to ask that justice be shown to the members of her race.
MISS Mills, as will be readily recognized in the many interviews she has given to the papers of the old world has been one of the best representatives of this race on the other side. An outstanding star of the French race, she now new hawks for her name by her splendid work in behalf of her people.
INSTEAD of creating the spotlight at radiant light, girls parties of the "little tobolabist" and backing in the stories of monkeys and other degenerates, she employed her time defining the role of which she laughed at, and providing an authentic tap into prevailing our culture while winning her way into the hearts of the people by her art and a modesty which borne her career from the time her beautiful manifold audiences on both street spotlight.
AND if the medium of our people here in the Greater City can be marshalled to ring teeth in behalf of work well done, we believe that it should be in behalf of this little lady who should not be allowed to shrink from the hues which she has to wear, and the theatre profession would do their themselves home in honoring Fereance-Mits up her return.
WILL say the numbers of the colored
theatrical profession because we do
not believe that the profession
should leave it to others to be the
first to show the appreciation which
we have for the people in which she carried the story of
an impoverished people before the inhabit-
ants of countries where precluded
Americans are trying to paint the
soul of that outstating American
identity. She will be a teacher,
Mother Mills, and well they may
for she stepped into the breech and
did that which we only expect from
accepted "leaders" of the race.
AND while we regret that we are a forced to show another phase of life as lived by a certain element from among us in England, and certain element from among us in France, in column of today's paper, we are charged with giving the news even though it hurts at times. Timely, well say, was the presence of a performer at a time, for what she did had a great deal to do in offsetting the drastic notion which was about to be taken against Negro performers in England. At Amsterdam the members of the Amsterdam will recall the action of an official body among the white theatrical artists in England which come dangerously near to her burial. Of the theatre profession from entering the "tight little life."
SHELTON Brooks, who returned from Chicago recently, we understand, has been added to "African-American acquisition which should mean an increase in the number of Earl succeedes in vaulting over the many obstacles in keeping his aggregation of entertainers downward, in the following order: to come, to point with pride to his accomplishments. We do not know how true the information contained in the following report is, but just as much and more to overcome in remaining in that sphere of enchantment and money called Broadway, the dancers' all-cultural show, is having a hard time in Americann to make all the ends meet. An injunction action and aid for the 400 damages by the jury brought by his attorney, S. Goldman, 1560 Broadway, alleging violation of contract when the show moved from Italy's Sixty-third Street Theatre to the National Theatre re-
The Brooks Costuming Company have put in a claim for unpaid costumes and A. M. Blumberg, of the National, to ensure that they are regularly to enclose the clothiers' share from the box office receipts of the revue. Dancer was able to bring his prosecco to Waters sank a bankroll, reported at about $10,000, in the show. She's the star.
The injunction action names Dancer, Mitchell, and the Shibbers, owners of the National, as defendants, claiming that the contract for Daly's Theatre stipulated that "African" should play only in Daly's Theatre while in New York.
JOSEPHINE Baker continues in the limelight. She has written her memoirs and Paris is sitting up and taking notice. Of course, it is doubtful if copies will be sent to the Negro United States for view purposes, which will be the usual mistake as our authors are daily catering to a much larger field of theatrical recognition to the mediums through which they could reach a large number of their own. A Paris despatch to the New York Herald-Mail on the dancer's memoirs, as follows:
"The memoirs recently published by Josephine Baker, the American dancer and actress, have spawned a new York paper and are acclaimed at Montmartre, where she have been received with indulgent humor even by soigned to a French review of her Tempel comments with relish on the dancers' wit and shrewdness and accepts her success in Paris as a just winner.
"Such intimate touches as the dancer's declaration that she owes all her success to a rabbit's foot or that she has been a master of the French in her native St. Louis, are mentioned with delight in the review. It recounts her career at length and takes care of the details of her appearance in colored reviews does not take account of the fact that her father was a Spanish. Her shade was a French, and the summa is the review. Give her the praise she and custainers and Josephine wouldn't be out of place at Lillian's review.
"The only flaw - Le Tempel finds in the book is that it lacks some of the dancer's characteristic brightness. The memoirs are distorted. The dancer is a born humorist; the paper says, in her dancering, but it appears some of the memoirs have lost in trans-forming, into print.
"Everything goes well with her! the review conclusion. 'She has an

'Rang Tang' Chorus Girl Remained in Water Longer Than Previous Winner
Only Colored Girl Entered in Big Marathon Miss Jackson Went More Than Half the Distance When Taken Out of Water—Trained at Pelham Bay and Not at "V"—Only Fifteen Women Qualified
Pauline Jackson, well-known swimmer of this city and one of the few colored women in the limelight in swim events in this country, did not win the Wrigley marathon staged in Canada last week, nor did she come near winning, but when they lifted her out of the water, almost numb from the cold, it was with a deep sense of satisfaction that she turned to a Canadian reporter and remarked: "Well. I stayed in longer than George Young, anyway."
Young is the youngster who won the previous Wrigley swim marathon, which was staged in California, and was picked by the wiseacres to put up a real battle. When the women lined up for inspection Miss Jackson stood among the fifteen out of one hundred qualifying to enter the contest, and of those fifteen she presented the best chest expansion.
Through a mistake she happened to be among the swimmers going three miles out of the way, having to curve and hit the course again. After combing the course for a little over eleven miles, the cold water got in its work and Miss Jackson had to be taken out. Some of the best swimmers in the country started to drop out after covering a mile or two. George Young quitting cold after going five miles.
Swimming being almost entirely removed as a line of athletic endeavor among colored people, few, if any, entering the many events in the Amateur Athletic Union of the United States, the preparations for entering the marathon made by Miss Jackson went practically unnoticed. Instead of training at the local "Y" for such an important event the young woman trained at Pelham Bay, covering between four and five miles every day for a period of eight weeks.
Under the able guidance of Physical Director Townsend of the 185th Street "Y" Miss Jackson improved her side stroke and in the contest did most of her swimming with her legs, as this insures greater endurance for a long swim. Upon her return here last week, she stated that the support of the "Rang Tang" company meant a great deal to her. She also said that she was treated in a splendid manner by the Canadians. Canadian papers at hand testify to the warm manner in which the New York swimmer was received, one stating that she received more cheers than some of the most prominent swimmers in the contest. That swimming will receive
aristocrat for husband, she won the other day 400,000 frances on the races, and all this because "I believe in God, my men cross knives, I never cut the hand, my men never put my stocking on the hand first." Butuch is the dancer's ritual. In worldly nifty she tases her own judgment. About men as well as things. Many distinguished men they don't impress with words" Each is made with two arms, two legs, in head, etc. Each does what his man. What these great men do with their dog and Josephine does with her legs. This is the different ways of winning runners.

A "Close-Up" on James B. Lowe
London It Load is in New York
More twenty years of leading he
again living in America greatest
But what a difference that twenty
sears has made.
A sense of years back he was just
little I love a tailor. He was a good
thought, was one of the fine black
men to work at the trade on Fifth
街. His love is yet a tailor in fact, a
better one now than then; still carries
his thumb in his trousers pocket and
a needle handy behind the lapel of his
hat, but he is not working at the
trade now. Is he working a position,
or is he simply but surely guides
his clients, has taken him into a
problem of expression. Lewis
is an older man, and an even better
after that tailor.
Mr. Lewis has just depicted one of
the world renowned characters of "The
Tailor in Universals two-million
week production of "Uncle Toni's
Cinder." New York will soon have the ope-
rature to how well Mr. Lewis has
would in all it like to know how this
mature actor.
Well, James Lowe did not turn out to be H. Lowe was born one—born with a cleavage life by the clumsy of an expression or the shading of a word. Lowe was defted to be an actor even though his career was ended until he had been upon this earth some forty-three years.
It is forty-seven years now, and forty-seven years of the most varied exhibition in history away from home in Georgia when he was twelve years of age. Mr. Lowe had tasted much of the life he had before he left New York twenty years ago in search of adventure.
In that twenty years he has been involved with many times before his location in the hearth's door, being injured in a railroad wreck in Canada. Doctors who attended him said that he would have been in a plaster cast Lowe, in spite of a wrecked spine, faced the world with that indomitable spirit of athlete manhood.
After traveling over the entire United States and Canada and a trip to California, Mr. Lowe fell in Los Angeles, California, some four years ago and discovered that he had a mother and sister living there, he had made a trip to Arizona to obtain his mother prevailed upon him to stay with her just for a little while, and it was during his stay that he was given his first animals and risking his life with wild animals, but taking whatever came his way with a smile. From that humble beginning years ago he had become the leading figures of American show life. And how well he carries these honors. Men who have achieved far less important than he. To this hour he is the same unchanged Lowe of yester-year—a man who always made friends, helped and who always extended helping hand to those who applied for aid. Mr. Lowe is just beginning a very useful decade of life that she will continue to contribute to the monument of Negro progress in the world of art and usefulness.
"Hard-Boiled" Haggerty" at the New Douglas
"Hard-Bolled Haggerty," Milton Sills' latest startling picture, coming Saturday to the Douglas Theatre, is particularly notable for the fact that it contains not only a powerful characterization for the star, but unusually strong and effective ones for many other story characters.
Molly O'Day plays opposite the star in the role of a French girl of mystery, with whom Haggerty falls in love. Much comedy and a burden of tense drama as well as the romantic side of the picture falls upon this new, very capable and attractive little actress.
Arthur Stone, army "buddy" of the fighting lier hero, is both clown and dramatic figure, and Mitchell Lewis as an air service major has a big dramatic part as human and powerful as his "Poleon Doret" of "The Barrier," as his famous stage role of "Captain Flag" in "What Price Glory."

Florence Runs True to Form
And Hopes Her English Success Helped All Her People
The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, 52 Fifth avenue, has received a clipping from the Bradford, Yorkshire, Obsserver, in England, containing the farewell message of the stage star, Florence Mills, to the English public.
In the message she expresses the hope that for every friend she had gained by her stage successes, the colored people throughout the world would also have gained a friend.
"To return to my heart's one real and great ache." writes Miss Mills, "does personal popularity, enthusiasm and applause count for anything? I had hoped—and, in fact, I go on hoping—that for every friend I have made in this country, the colored people as a whole have also rained a friend. Britain is a Christian country, surely Christianity knows no color.
"Because the great Creator made some of us different colors—be it black, brown, or yellow—it is in the power of anyone honestly and sincerely Christian at heart to look down upon us as something inferior? Black sheep are certainly not to be found among people of one color only.
"I now return to America, still hoping that my efforts have not been quite in vain. I shall return again, and may those friends I—and I hope, my people—have gained not merely remain loyal and true but multiply many, many times."
'The Clown' Gripping Tale Of Life Under Big Top
A polignant cross-section of circus life has made its way to the screen in the Columbia production, "The Clown," which opens at the Roosevelt Theatre Saturday. A story of tense dramatic action, it shows a deftness and fine restraint in direction that gives it appeal as well as strength.
The action centers about a circus owner who is unjustly sent to prison through the treachery of his partner. After 18 years he sees his daughter, now a young woman, performing in a show given at the penitentiary. He also sees the man who has ruined his life—and determines upon revenge. He escapes from the prison and makes his way back to the circus in clown guse. He overhears his former partner's plan to wreck the girl's happiness and that only strengthens his despair—for he must save her. It is a horrible revenge that he takes—but he accomplishes it—in a highly dramatic climax that is but the forerunner of an equally tense situation.
The circus background of the story is a vivid one—with all the glamour and color of the sawdust arena. It gives a glimpse behind the scenes as well as provides a regular circus performance with its glitter and gayety. The big entrance parade is there, the bands, the air performers', the galley of clowns and the crowds—will do their part in presenting an authentic circus atmosphere.

Record Crowd Stormed Alhambra on Labor Day
"Lucky Numbers" opened at the New Albahama Theater on Monday to record crowds. From 8 a.m. on until after 10 at night it was a case of "standing room only," and much of the time not even that. Many were obliged to wait in the lobby until seats were available. It is years since the Albahama has seen such a rush of patronage, and it well proves that the people of Flarton are ready to respond to the right inducements in the amusement line.
The Trombadours, who are presenting a new musical show each week, have added to their ranks two comedians who have already proved popular—Haby Mack and Anna Mae Fritz. Also Gertie Moore has joined her husband, Tim Moore, in the cast.
William Petway is staging the dances and does a tango with Tiny Alexander.

Deplorable Conduct of Members of a Certain Aggregation Now Seeping Through Harmony Kings Florence Mills, Al Hughes and a Few Others Have Done Much to Overcome Ill Feeling
While rumors have been coming from England of the desirable conduct of a number of Negro performers connected with a certain aggregation of entertainers in London was not until recently that a certain well-known actor felt that the time had come to call the attention of the Amsterdam News to the matter and crave that this paper be the medium of notifying all other papers published by Negroes in this country, hoping thereby to conduct a campaign of wireless publicity" and "scaring the bums" into better beating.
Our correspondent in Europe have steered clear of this matter, perhaps not wanting to become involved because of the low class of men whose actions are being cited by the English authorities as proof that the further admittance of entertainers of color will be carefully considered before passports are issued to any large revue or musical comedy.
"There are at least a half a dozen or more," writes our correspondent, "members of a certain combination going about the streets in London and every town in which they have appeared fighting, some of them being pretty well used up, others being stabbed, and more than one occasion the police authorities have been forced to take a hand." The scandalous conduct of these performers are going to make it very hard for those of us forced to remain here, and we do hope that something can be done to correct this deplorable condition. These people are a disgrace to our theatrical profession. I believe that The Amsterdam News will be just as ready to air this matter as it has been to give praise to the worthy members of the profession here in Europe."
In the meantime such splendid artists as Florence Mills, the Four Harmony Kings, Al Hughes, Mr Whaley, the latter formerly of the old team of Scott and Whaley, and a few others have done everything within their power to place our people in a favorable light in Europe. In last week's Amsterdam News appeared a reproduction of an address by Dr. Lewis Farnell of Exeter College, Oxford, in which he was alleged to have spoken in documentary terms of the race. In the same paper a letter from a member of the Four Harmony Kings taking exception to the remarks of the learned Englishman also appeared. Mr. Ivan H. Browning, a member of the quartet, and European theatrical correspondent of this paper, wrote Dr. Farnell on the matter, receiving the following reply: Oxford, England. To Ivan H. Browning Esq.
10 LONGUE ST.
London, W. C. 2.
Dear Sir:
I wrote no article in the York-
shire Evening News and it was
only a garbled and inaccurate re-
port of a phrase that slipped from
my lips in a short address to an
Oxford gathering of English music
teachers and I am exceedingly
cry that it wounded your feel-
ings.
I was only speaking of bad jazz
music and its evil effects and I
shook of it as coming from Ameri-
cand from the Negroes.
I am well aware that some musi-
c of the colored races is very
good and I said so and I have en-
joyed listening to a most beautiful
Negro singer.
I have no color prejudice, and I
lame it.
Speaking as to English I used the word "nigger" as we talk popularly of "Nigger minstrels." It was no more meant as an insult than when we use "John Bull" for an Englishman. If I thought that it would have been quoted like this by careless reporters without its contents I would have been more careful, I am.
Yours faithfully.
LEWIS R. FARNELL,
Exeter College,
Oxford, England.
Aug. S. 1927.
Mr. Browning also took exception to the theatrical writer in a South Shields paper referring to the quartet of which he is a member as a "migger" troupe, and the English writer immediately apologized as shown by the appended clitoris:
Mr. Ivan H. Browning, manager of The Original Four Harmony Kings, appearing at the Empire Theatre, South Shields, this week, writes objecting to the quartet having been referred to in the Gazette as a "nigger" troupe. Mr. Browning argues that "nigger" is a detergent term to apply to the Napro or colored race. The word "nigger" was certainly not used in our notice of the talented performance given by the trouple, in any decoratory sense, or with the rightest intention of hurting anybody's feelings! It was a friendly familiarity. However, we take note for future guidance of Mr. Browning's dislike of the term.

ACTS OF CERTAIN PERFORMERS DEPLORED Crowds Packed Local Theatres Last Monday
Alhambra Revue Went Over Fine
House
The new management and the new policy inaugurated some time ago at the Alhambra Theatre seem to provide just what the people of Harlem want.
It is interesting to observe the readiness with which the public has responded to the removal of all prejudice and the placing of all seats, boxes, loges and everything at the disposal of all comers, without any restrictions.
In fact, nothing remains from any previous management of the Alhambra except the walls of the building. The spirit of cordial welcome accorded to all is meeting with an agreeable response and happy countenances are now the rule at this theatre.
"Harlem Rounders" was the attraction last week, and entirely different from the previous week's revue. Tim and Gertie Moore were leaders in the fun. Anna Mae Fritz introduced a Southern note and was especially applauded for her artistic rendition of "Georgia Rose." William Petway did a speedy acrobatic dance. George W. Cooper's dry wilt and the agreeable numbers delivered by Ida Brown, popularly known as "Baby Blues." enlivened the revue. George Booker, who is a true tenor, and not a forced baritone, revealed that he plays as well as he sings. The cast was a large and capable one and the humorous sketches went over well, especially "King For An Hour."
The dancing girls, called the "Sunkist Dolls," have been trained in an abundance of intricate ensembles and aroused much enthusiasm when they tripped out upon the illuminated runway which extends right from the footlights through the center of the orchestra floor. This runway is an innovation for a revue theatre, and when it lights up brilliantly is quite a surprise to the audience.

LONDON and Paris are simply packed with Americans, and everything has gone up. In Paris it is terrible. They charge you for even breathing.
HAVE noticed so few of our people coming to Europe, and it seems to me that they would get up like parties and come like the whites do. I am sure it isn't the lack of money, because during the Eks' convention in New York they must have spent more than what it would cost to make two or three trips to Europe.
It is certainly the European traveling that really helps to put on the finishing touches and broadens you in a most unusual way. and I do hope next year more of our people will realize this fact and make a tour over here, if no further than England.
AM delighted to know about the success of the Amsterdam News and I must say that it has certainly made wonderful strides. By the way, I do wish you would personally see that a Mr. Cecil Robinson, 25 Avenue Road, Regents Park, has his piece in the great centre of the Amsterdam News, Mr. Robinson has been living in Italy, but is now living in London immediately. He is indeed a very fine young chap, a bachelor, quite wealthy, and color doesn't mean a thing to him if you are a gentleman. He is a very fine young man, and they are both intelligent and have numbers of beautiful parties at his London home while they were here. He is especially interested in Negro music of all kinds—literature and newspapers. I find a number of people over here whose hobby it is to get all the New York records, newspapers, etc., have them in their homes, and when they invade to see them they can talk freely about things pertaining to the Negro race.
HAVE been told that in at least two well-known West End English homes there is a copy of every book written by Dr. Du Bois, Kelly Miller, James Weldon Johnson and others; and these same people read the Chicago Law, the New York Times, the New York Times, and a useful interesting news to me when I first heard about it and proves that careful study is being made of the American Negro. I am sure that during the trip of Dr. Wilberforce Williams, Mrs. Bethune and others it opened their hearts and ever, because, after all, the East Indian, with all his wealth, and the other darker races do not at all compare with the real American Negro, they find.
WE have just finished a short run in the West End, having played the big Coliseum and Palladium, and now we are in the popular city of Manchester.
FUNNY thing about this city: Travis always blessed day hero, and even though this is our sixth time here the weather is always terrible, and, as as summer is concerned it is over in Manchester. I don't see how the sunlight it is certainly a revolution.
It has raised more in England this summer than it did last year at this time and throughout the country the weather is very damp, and when they do have a bit of sunlight it is certainly a revolution.
WELL, the Blackbirds are still meetter with success and are on their second week at the Empire, Newcastle-on-Tyne, way up the North of England. I understand Miss Mills is away on a holiday, but I am sending your letter on to be forwarded to her.
JOYNER & FOSTER are in Newcastle this week also, and are playing the Stoll Kinema. These boys have done very well in England and after next week they will pay a return visit to Paris and then sail for America.
LAYTON & JOHNSTONE are having a three weeks' run at the popular Alhambra in the West End, and doing great as usual. Mr. Johnstone's new special built Dancer is unusually attractive.
JOHNNY HUDGINS and his beautiful wife are enjoying the popular Parisian summer. Monstere Hudgins is getting ready for his appearance in the big Moulin Rouge Revue this winter.
JIM & JACK, the clever dancing boys are enjoying Blackpool this week and having their usual fine success at the well-known Palace Theatre.
CARPENTER & HATCH are way up in the North of Scotland. These boys are very popular up there.
SCOTT & WHALEY are playing in and around Manchester for three weeks before returning to London. They are on the Broadhead tour.
MRS. MAIELLA CRABBE, wife of the basso of the Four Harmony Kings, has arrived in America and is now spending her holiday with relatives in Washington, D.C.
JUST as I was about to mail my items I received a note from Miss Mills and husband (Kid). They are having a most delightful time in Baden Baden, Germany, and will be there for fifteen days. They are resting, and enjoying the fireworks after a long day. After visiting Belfast and Wellington then back to Paris for new days. Selling on September 21 from Harve on the wonderful row steamship He Le France for New York. I am sure everybody will be delighted to see this charming little artist and her hubby once more. We will miss her so much, but trust she will return soon because we are made to admire. I can't begin to tell you a reason she has been over here, and she is certainly a great, great credit to the artistic world.

"Salvation" at the Lincoln
Pauline Strake Pulls a Rip Van Winkle in Her New Picture
Rip Van Winkle had nothing on Pauline Stark!
At least that's how the popular actress felt after her first day's work in "Captain Salvation," the Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer production now being shown at the Lincoln this Thursday.
For she passed the first day on the new picture in bed—supposedly asleep!
Miss Stakew, playing the role of Bess Morgan, the feminine lead in the picture, is washed ashore, following a shipwreck at sea, and discovered half alive by Lars Hanson, who takes her to his cabin, where he cares for her until she recovers. In this sequence, there are a number of scenes where Miss Starke is lying in bed in a state of semi-consciousness—and it took an entire day to "shoot" them.
"One would think it would be very restful to lie in bed and watch the other members of the cast work," said Miss Starke, "but it so happened that on the particular day they were making those scenes. I was anything but sleepy—in fact, I longed to be up and around the studio."
With Lars Hanson in the leading role, in addition to Miss Starke, the cast of "Captain Salvation" includes Marceline Day, George Fawcett, Sam de Grasse, Jay Hunt, Flora Finch, Eugenie Besserer, Eugenie Ford and others of note.

The Former First Musician of the Only Colored Band in the United States Navy Is Organizer and Leader of the Community Band at St. Thomas, Virgin Islands.
Former Navy Man Now Leading His Own Band
P. O. Nicholson Was First Musician With Virgin Island and Outfit Which Came Here
That upstanding little musician,
P. O. Nicholson, who many will remember as one of the outstanding members of the United States Naval Band, under the leadership of Bandmaster Alton A. Adams,
and which made a tour of the country some summers ago, has been creating a favorable impression as leader of the Community Band since he left the service.
Nicholson was first musician with the naval band and his work on the clartonet elicited unusual comment by lovers of the best in music. Of unusual intelligence, it was not hard for him to make a number of friends while a member of the band which left such a splendid record behind when they took transport for their island home at the conclusion of their visit.
Nicholson since leaving the service has been employed in a responsible position by the Naval Government of the Virgin Islands, and so well did he discharge the duties assigned him, we understand, he is in line for an early promotion. The Community Band under his able guidance has made quite a hit with the people of the Virgin Islands and visitors to St. Thomas, where the youngsters are stationed.

"Wages and Gifts" Sermon Subject
Rev. Willard Monroe Fills Pulpit at Abyssinian Baptist Church
BY CLIFFORD MILLER
"Wages and Gifts" was the theme of the Rev. W. Willard Monroe, assistant pastor at the Abyssinian Baptist Church at the evening service last Sunday.
The text was "The wage of sin is death, but the gift of God is life overlasting." He said that life afferms every individual two choices—wages or a gift, the one death dealing, the other life giving. There is a penalty for all lawlessness, "every sin must be paid for." The basis for all sin and righteousness are deeply rooted in the three great instincts; the self, the herd, the sex. Perversion of these instincts is sin, the proper use is life overlasting.
That much of our sins result from overestimating our strength and not admitting our weaknesses. God's great gift to sinful man is liberation from his sins. "Christ is, one's heart is cure for sin."
The Reverend Monroe has served the Abysinian Church, for one year. On September the twenty-ninth will take a three weeks vacation.

Negro Catholics in Annual Convention
Negro Catholics in Annual Convention
Pope Pius Sends Greetings Pontifical High Mass Celebrated
BY CLIFFORD F. MILLER.
"I'm a dreamer of dreams—I dream of the Negroes as a great people, a Catholic people," said the Reverend Father Fox of the Jesuit Missions at the third annual convention of the Federated Colored Catholics of the United States on last Sunday in St. Mark's Hall. The object of this federation is to bring about a closer union and better feeling among Catholic Negroes; to promote the cause of Catholic education throughout the Negro population.
This federated movement has the sanction of the prisoner of the Vatican, Pope Plus XI, who sent this message to be read: "The Holy Father sends to the convention of the Federation of Colored Catholics his good wishes and paternal benediction." At the opening meeting the Pontifical High Mass was celebrated in the St. Charles Borromeo Church by the Right Reverend John J. Dunn, D. D. V. G. Bishop Auxiliary of the Archdiocese of New York. The sermon on "Talents" was preached by the Right Reverend Montguson Thomas M. M. O'Keefe, pastor of the Church of St. Benedict. At the afternoon meeting Elmo M. Anderson, counsel board of Mission Work Against Negroes, called the session to order. After prayer by the Reverend Father Fox, the first act of the convention was to pledge allegiance to the flag. The flag corps of the Fifteenth Regiment was present and the audience stood at attention while Mrs. Marlon Coleman sang the "Star-Spanned Banner."
Addresses of welcome were made by Attorney Myley A. Paige, prominent young attorney, clad in khaki, as an officer of the army, and Mrs. Elosse Bibb Thompson, dramatist. The address of the latter was remarkable for eloquence. Prof. Eugene Clark, assistant superintendent of public schools on public grounds, addressed to the addresses welcome. He said that Catholic education of the Negro for service would be the keynote of the convention. Dr. Thomas W. Turner of Hampton Institute, Hampton, Va., president of the federation, was present and he introduced distinguished guests and members of the convention from out of town. Chief among these were the Reverend Father John Le Farge, associate editor of America; the Reverend Dr. E. Kramer and W. W. J. Read, Columbus, Ohio; N. T. Veldar, Pittsburgh, and J. E. Wilkerson, St. Louis.
Noah D. Thompson introduced a number of the local guests for a brief word of greeting. Dr. Thomas W. Turner, president of the federation, at the Monday morning session urged the 250,000 Negro Catholics to pool their forces to make greater headway among the Negro race. Sixty delegates from thirty-six Catholic organizations were present to listen to his challenge. Dr. Turner in his annual address believes that the hope of the spread of Catholicism among Negroes will be effected when those in authority advance higher education for the making of leaders. While he has done for him, or what it has done for out-suprised by other denominations in erecting colleges. There, is only one Catholic college and it serves only thirty-eight pundits.
He especially commended the work that is being done at the Cardinal Gibbons Institute and suggested that in all the schools for Negro Catholics the supervision by an expert administrator of the Negro race would make for efficiency. He believes, too, in the employment of a native clergy.
Other speakers were the Rover-end Father McKane of the Josephite Order and C. F. Clarke of Philadelphia on the "Value of a Native Clergy" and the field agent, William W. McKane, representative of religious societies generally demanded equality in the Catholic Church.
On Monday night a reception was held in honor of the visiting delegates. A musical program was rendered. All sessions and the reception were held in St. Mark's hall.
On Tuesday the entertaining committee gave the delegates a sightseeing trip around the city and a boat ride up the Hudson. Chicagoland is clamoring to entertain the fourth annual convention.

N. A. A. C. P. Activities
The association has received and made public a letter from a resident of Madison County, Florida, reporting the mistreatment and unpunished murder of Negroes in that city, that the Negroes there are suffering greatly and "do not know that they are emancipated."
Robert W. Bagnall, director of branches of the association, anounced that plans were under way for a motion-wide drive to increase the number of branches from 400 to 1,000.

Author Glad to Be Out After Eight Weeks' Stay
NEUTILLY-SUR-SEINE. WELL, it feels good to be out on the boulevards again, even if one's legs are a bit wobbly. Being away for eight weeks is not much of a joke.
but still, the laugh is on me and the drys. While almost everybody else was drinking wine, beer and champagne, I stuck religiously to my regime of two quarts of water daily. Two weeks after I had been in Istanbul I read an article in one of the leading French press calling attention to the fact that the drinking water of Paris was charged with typhoid germs, that the number of deaths from this disease had greatly increased, and that something ought to be done to sterilize the water.
Since then I have been learning much. Older Parisians have been telling me that twenty-five years ago there was an epidemic of typhoid which swept off thousands, and since then there has been a tendency to avoid pipewater. Knowing ones either boil their water, or add a sterilizing aid before drinking it, that is, the few Parisians who do drink water.
Very little attention is paid to the purity of the water supply in Spain, Italy, France and some other European countries, and it seems that pretty few people of America tourists contract this disease, something not advertised in the booklets of the tourist agencies. A recent victim was J. Oden Armour, Chicago millions.
Traveling around one thinks of railroad or steamship, or soo needlehead, or some other form of violence. None of these happens but a little microbeaches out from nowhere and puts one an invisible wallop that puts him away for a much longer time than the list of the world's champion petrel would be likely to. Water, it is beginning to seem to me, hath its perils no less than wine. In the hospital at the same time with me was a man whose troubles were directly due to drinking too much liquor. Needless to say he is from a certain dry country.
At the present, I am as much afraid of water as I am of Lenox aversion mouth, though I am told that I am immune to further attacks of typhoid. All of which reminds me of a little story: in the cool old days of barrals and free lunches when prohibition was still in mpatches, an ennoblish dry was holding ferns on a street corner oh the virtues of water and the vices of wine. Presently spoke a florid individual in the audience with the blessings of Bacchus on his sofa: "Say, Mr. Water-drinker, you heard the story of Lazius and Dives, haven't you?" The speaker admitted that he had: "Dives was in hell, wasn't be combined the heckler." "Yes," agreed the speaker. "And what was the first thing that Dives called for? Whiskey?" "No, water," replied the speaker confidently.
"Yes, mimicked the heckler,
'be called for water. That's
where all you bally teetotalers
so.'
Yes, as I said, I'm afraid of
water.
Barall of this is getting away
from the theme. I'm to tell
about the American Hospital of
Paris.
Back in 1904 some far-seeking
Americans of this city saw the
Hope
*Hope springs eternal in the human breast.*—Alexander Pope.
NEW poets have given to the world more subtle fallacies than has Alexander Pope, but he has also given us many inspirings and helpful truths. One of these is quoted above.
In his marvelous climax of I. Coral, Ful. Chapter, Paul attributes these great endurance and grace longevity than is attributed to faith, and he makes hope not only to love, which he calls the only sentiment, or every other principle.
In all probability it was hope rather than faith that inspired the "Brave" Admiral to command "Sail on" salt on, when it seemed that certain destruction was harming, and so has it in many cases when men faced soothing impossibility.

all-important to be able to
describe one's ills in one's

speaks the foreign language
fairly, when one is really ill, doing
so calls for no little effort, and

speaking, is much below the

standard of the average American hospital so far as equipment and maintenance are concerned.
Four years later the hospital was built and opened with beds for twenty-two patients. It was then increased to thirty-two, but this also proved inadequate as there was always a second seated room coming expressly as they do now from all parts of Europe, for even at that time the hospital was recognized as a model of its kind. In the meantime it was incorporated by Act of Congress. Then came the war when it rendered important services to the French troops by conducting the American Ambulance Hospital when it encountered the war this turned over to the United States army and became Military Hospital No.1.
After the war when the number of Americans increased in Paris there came the necessity for a still larger building, with the result that the present building with accommodation for 220 beds, eight private maternity rooms, and several other departments, was erected at a cost of a million dollars, all of which was raised by public subscription, mostly from American residents and tourists in Paris. Although the city is inexcitable for Americans, except in cases of emergency, French friends came forward liberally with unsolicited contributions, the hospital itself being a memorial to the Americans who died or took part in the war.
At present the American Hospital of Paris has the reputation of being the best in Europe, and as was said, sick Americans come thither from all parts of the continent. Its operating rooms, laboratory, radiocopy, X-ray, electrotherapy, eye, ear, nose and throat, and other departments are said to equal the best in America.
For convalescing patients there are a solarium, two roof gardens with remarkable fine views of the city and environs, and a well kept garden environs, just outside the courtyard of Pea's hospital is surrounded by beautiful suburban homes and lawns. As to maintenance the interior of the building is the perfection of cleanliness. All in all it is a structure of which Americans abroad can well be proud.
Prices range from $2 a day in the wards to $30 a day in the de luxe rooms. Private rooms can also be had for a little over three dollars a day. Although chlofly for Americans the places of residence of the 1,626 in-patients treated for the year 1926, shows a pretty good cosmopolitan range, China,
ties. And thus it must ever be if man is to make progress and civilization is to be advanced.
Hope is designated as an anchor. An anchor reaches down and, taking hold on some object below, gives stability and safety to the vessel which it is intended to preserve, and so it is with hope. Hope for better things, for better days, for lifting of burdens and giving of dark clouds will give to the human heart, the human soul, the fainting human spirit sufficient stability to avert wreck when the winds of adversity are raging and threatening disaster.
On drift on life's means we crack and ruin not only to the drifters but, perhaps, to other vessels with which the drifters may come into contact; and no other anchor has proved so successful in this particular as HOPE.
But an anchor dangling in the

Brazil and East Africa, being included. France (mostly American residents) led with 407, with New York next with 377. The medical board, composed of leading American and French physicians and surgeons in Paris, supervises the medical work of the hospital. It is augmented by a consulting staff of omentine European specialists and more than 200 well-known practitioners who compose the Courtesy List. There is also a medical advisory board of American composed of thirty leading physicists and surgeons. Internes are selected from the leading graduates of the best American medical schools. The student and nursing staff comprises sixteen nationalities - Russian, Danish, American, French, English, etc.
But all of the above are facts and figures of greater or less interest to the average reader. What interests everyone, however, is the humanitarian side. How are you treated? A Negro audience will especially want to ask. How are colored folks treated? Here also I can speak in unqualified terms, and glad to do so. I can recall few things in life that gives me as much pleasure as to speak well of the American Hospital.
Tyrphoid fever reduces one almost to the last degree of helplessness, and I was cared for night and day almost as if I were an infant. Doctors and nurses, it seemed to me, did the maximum to make me as comfortable as possible. The nurse who attended me the most of the five weeks, a young lady from California, Miss Janet Merkin, is one of the kindiest and most thoughtful persons it has been my rare pleasure to meet. She never seemed to forget the slightest detail. And her cheerfulness was unfalling. When it was possible for me to cut again everything was done in the way of nourishment to help me to regain the large amount of weight I had lost.
Two other Negroes, who were in the hospital the same time as myself voice my sentiments exactly or a voice thetas, as you will. They were W. Henry Lee, a chemist, native of Boston, who has been living here thirty years, and late E. E. Thompson, former bandmaster of the 567th Infantry, who had been playing in the leading European capitals, but who died recently of cancer.
Without wishing to dwell too much on the matter of my illness I might add that prior to my going to the hospital I consulted three physicians in three weeks all of whom were treating me for something else, the probably to the symptoms I gave them.
Tourists and others are welcome visitors at the hospital. Negro visitors being as welcome as any other. I understand. And I believe too that donations, large or small, are also welcome from them, as the hospital is dependent on its maintenance largely on gifts. Under its charter it cannot be run for profit so it is a purely humanitarian institution.
The American Negro population is increasing; so are the tourists. The inevitable result is that from time to time one two get set and anthurium that one such and has been treated free. And in any case it is a mighty fine thing to have such an institution to which one may go when in a foreign land. That, at least, is one fact I shan't forget.
My next article will be on Negro Americans in France, who and what they are.
water would be powerless to afford stability, for it would drift on with the vessel. Virtue and safety will always lie in the anchor that reaches down and fixes itself on something. So, HOPE must be based on something, attached to something, and that something must be firmer, stronger than itself, and then the vessel which it would preserve.
Hope born of our wishes, our dreams, our ambitions will fall; to give stability it must take hold on eternal verities such as the vitality of truth, the triumph of justice, and the conquest of righteousness, even though these be hindered and delayed.
Yes, for the helpfulness of mankind, to save us from despair, and from utter wreck and ruin, it is well that—

Water Drinking—A Keynote to Health
IN THESE modern days, the state and municipal governments always make provision for a plentiful supply of good drinking water, and thus water as a drink becomes commonplace. Familiarity with this liquid breeds contempt, and many people do not think of drinking water in the amount that is necessary for health.
Water in the proper proportion is necessary for a proper functioning of the body organs. The element water enters into all life. The animal and vegetable kingdom all need this life-giving constituent.
Let us consider some of the important organs in the mechanism of man and we shall see that water is a predominating and constant element.
The blood passes through every organ of the body and carries the nutrition to support life. This blood contains over thirty per cent of water.
Water increases the muscular movements of the intestines and thus prevents constipation. Because of these important reasons, human beings need to drink a sufficient amount of water to avoid disease.
Rubner, a physiological investigator, states that a fasting animal may lose all its sugar and fat, and also one-half of its protein food and still live, but it loses one-tenth of its water the animal dies.
The brain, that wonderful mechanism that controls the working of these organs, contains from 53 to 90 per cent of water; the liver, the important organ that manufactures the bile juice which aids materially the digestion of foods, contains 75 per cent of water; the muscles which cover the bones and contract and retract with every movement of our body, contain 75 per cent of water; the saliva, the secretion of the mouth that changes many of our foods into a form that is easily digested, is almost all water (90.5 per cent). The bones of the body, the framework upon which the other tissues are superimposed and whose strength is one and one-fourth times as great as cast iron, are composed of 40 per cent water.
This will demonstrate beyond any doubt the importance of water in the human system. In the chemistry of respiration, water is an essential element in the exchange of the poisonous carbon dioxide for the invigorating oxygen. The perspiration of the skin is essential for regulating the temperature of the body. The kidneys eliminate the poisons of the body only when they are in proper solution with water. Water dissolves the joins and anions on sheaths and causes an easy movement of the joints; in the digestion of foods, absorption of the end-products of digestion can only occur by being properly diluted with water.

A Key to Culture By LEOLA LILLARD
ETIQUETTE is not so much a manifestation towards others as it is an exponent of ourselves. We are courteous to others, primarily, because such behavior only is consistent with our own claim to be well-bred. If we have sufficient control over ourselves and attempt to serenity in the presence of our most aggravating foe. Some establish the good-will of others, we will behave with setimes the enemy's worst manifestations fail to move us to resentment; we show him pity rather than scorn; we treat him with politeness, not because he deserves it, but because we owe it to ourselves to be gentle-mannered, self-respectful and forgiving. And it is a mark of a well disciplined mind that is able to meet all emergencies calmly.
Control of temper is one of the most valuable results of training in the ethics of calm behavior. Manifestation of tilt-temper may be the occasional outburst of a spirit that dwells under the shadow of an ancestral curse, but which in its better moments grieves in sackcloth and ashes over its yielding to wild, unguvernable impulse. Such people are often generous and self-sacrificing in the main, though causing so much sorrow and disaster to others by these occasional whirlwinds of passion, in all that delicacy of feeling and usual regard for the amenities indicate they are "well-bred." And it is as ungenerous to deny this fact as it is to criticize the conduct of the insane. But habitual cold-blood and willful tilt-temper—the trademark of unmitigated self-selfish—are indisputably ill-bred.
This calm serenity does not mean weakness or moral cowardice. The dignity that forbids one to be rude also forbids one to endure insolence. A gentleman may scathe a liar in plain unvarnished terms, and yet not lose a particle of his own repose of manner; and the higher his own standards are, the more merciless will be his denunciation of what he holds to be deserving of rebuke. But through it all, he has his own spirit well in hand, under curb and roin. The ominous calm of a well-bred man is a terror to the garrulous bully. It is "the triumph of mind over matters."
Eliquetta begins with self. There is no worthy deference that does not rest on the basis of self-control.
"To thine own self be true; And it must follow as the night the day."

Water increases the muscular
movements of the intestines and
thus prevents constipation. Because of these important reasons, human beings need to drink a sufficient amount of water to avoid disease.
Rubber, a physiological investigator, states that a fasting animal may lose all its sugar and fat, and also one-half of its protein food and still live, but if it loses one-tenth of its water, the animal dies.
Every day the human body loses water through the lungs, kidneys, skin and bowels, thus it is essential to make up for this loss by taking a sufficient amount of water daily.
Water is taken into the system through the foods, such as vegetables, greens, milk, fruits and other liquids, but largely by pure, unmixed glasses of water daily. At least four glasses of water should be taken daily, and this water may be taken between meals or with the meals.
We have often heard that water should not be taken with meals because it dilutes the gastric juice in the stomach. There is no scientific reason for this statement.
Researchers have been made recently and it has been found that water taken with the meals cills the stomach gastric cells and used new of gastric juice. Thus water is a chemical stimulant to the gastric juice.
Another fact to remember is that water taken with the meals in fifteen minutes leaves the stomach and passes into the intestines. It does not, therefore, stay long enough to hinder the digestion of other solid food in the stomach. I would suggest that you should take a glass of water before breakfast and one at meal time. This would make four glasses at least for the day. This regularly in the daily water intake will prevent possible disfunction in certain organs of the body.

People who have themselves well in charge show equal courtesy to everyone. There is no incitation on their part to ignore the individuality of people. They try to avoid slighting one man simply because he lacks the personality or special quality most attractive to his own impulses, and publicly exhibiting extreme preference for those who possess by nature more attractive attributes.
True missionary work lies not alone in tracts, exhortations, camp meetings and foreign distributions, but in the subtitle attraction of a refined, benevolent spirit, breathing its very self into the lives of those who have hitherto known only the grasping selflessness and evils of their fellowmen, and to whom this new gospel of brotherly kindness and deference are both a marvelous revelation and an inspiration.
Next to self-control, and harder to comply with, is forbearance, though often overlooked. Those, who by inheritance or by culture, are blessed with a logical mind and equable temper, should be lenient in judging cruder people whose dense ignorance causes them to do astounding violence to the principles of morality and etiquette alike, by exhibition of ugly temper. Only by making allowances can the conduct of some people be accounted less than criminal. Whatever the tendency, temperament, or temptation, good form requires the cultivation and the exhibition of good humor and a disposition to take a cheerful and generous view of people and things.

~ Harlem's "Baby Farms"
"Conditions in Most of Them Are Deplorable"
IN A SURVEY which began the early part of March, and which has just been brought to a close, the dangers of baby farms were compared with the good derived from them. The conclusion was reached that baby farms are destructive to the life of the infant; not that baby farms as such are dangerous, of course not, but those conducted for the convenience of the Negro mother in Harlem are just simply bad and ought to be made better or closed up
The writer's attention was called to this problem by the number of women who advertise in local newspapers for children to board. He then decided to investigate the, farm keepers; first as to their licenses, secondly, as to their own general health, and thirdly, as to their own general morality and preparation for the work. On some of these trips he was accompanied by members of the staff of the Department of Health. Economic conditions often send the mothers to work in order to care for the newly born infants. As a result, there have grown up almost overnight numerous baby farms that for a small fee agree to care for the babies during the long hours of the day.
The make-up of these women, as indicated by the history of the trade, exhibits two types: The first made up of old decrepit and sickly women who cannot earn their living in regular employment; the second, young women who themselves have one or more children, and whose husbands are on the job making a salary, but who desire to boost family income by earning a few extra dollars each week. There is also developing a new type—young women too lazy to work regularly and who take in children as a means of earning a living. Upon about the fifth of March, 1827, to the twentieth of August, 1827, there were 123 baby farms advertised in local newspapers. Of this number, Miss Helen Dole of the Health Department declared that there had been made only about sixty-one applications for permits, out of which nineteen had been granted. Forty-two were denied permits.
Month after month, however, these farms have increased, and the Department of Health finds itself totally unable to cope with the present situation. It was discovered by the investigation of some of these farms and taken into consideration the task which the proprietors had undertaken. For instance, there had been no

Girls, Trust With Care!
Recently a sad case came to my cars. It was not a man but a girl who led her off. Her home training was such that it made her wary of men. She took their fatterings with a grain of salt. She heeded not their pet jibo about what all girls do and how she didn't act human. A supposed-to-be girl friend persuaded her girl influenced her because she was a girl. Marion could see no reason why Gertrude should wish her harm.
Writt actually happened is this: Pat, Marlon's friend, figures that he can 'make time' as he wants to with her. He knows that Gertie is considered 'clever' and he knows that Marion rather admires Gertie's sophistication. He offers Gertie some money, if she will use her influence. Gertie is game. It won't hurt her any and she sure wants money. She tells Marlon that Pat is safe, that he is a man, not a kid; that he is well experienced and means well by a girl; that girls are alike. Marlon that Gertie speaks from experience. She believes that Marlon speaks sincerely with no utterter selfish motive. Gertie invites Marlon to the house when she knows that Pat will 'drop in' on business. She leaves the two alone.
Several months later Pat loses his job. He leaves New York and can't be found. Marion is in serious trouble. She goes to Gertie. The two quarrel, and under the influence of liquor Gertie the pain she played in the affair and also tells a relationship that existed between her and Pat. Marion is a pointless school

provision for the handling of the
food of the children.
In several of the places the
nurses were found to be suffer-
ing from various skin diseases,
and in one case, the son of one
of the nurses had succeeded in
infecting about nine other chil-
dren with some form of eye
trouble from which he had suffer-
ed from birth:
In West 142d street the hus-
band of one of the nurses had
infected her with a disease, and
the day on which the investigation reached the farm the nurse
Edgar M. Grey
had just been removed to one of
the hospitals.
All of these farms, even those which had been granted permits by the Health Department, were found to be filthy and unsanitary. Many of them were conducted in basements of houses. In one case the daughter of a blind woman conducted the farm, but the daughter went out to work each day, leaving the mother to care for the children. In this case the real nurse was a five-year-old girl child who cared for the other children. In West 118th street, it was discovered that a nurse who took care of six infants was herself suffering from a lung disease, and had been taking treatments for over a year. She was recently ordered away by the city physician. Even a nurse suffering from common leprosy was found caring for four children, and had done so for more than three years.
A striking case was that in which all of the children on the farm, including those of the nurse, suffered from a scalp infection, which had spread to almost all the other children in the house.
In one case where the mother of a farmed child had been charged by the week for bottled milk, she discovered that the child had been fed loose milk.
There are many day-nurserys doing excellent work in the community. Two churches which conduct farms are doing excellent work in this direction, and it would appear that the future of this important work depends largely upon an increased interest in the problem taken by the church.
In so far as the present stock of baby farms are concerned, the community should take them in hand, or be prepared to lose its babies. Young mothers with

Dear Egypt Ann:
I am a girl of twenty. The young man whom I really love makes a very small salary, scarcely large enough for one to live on, much less two. I don't feel as if I can depend upon him, he likes to drink. He is 25. He loves me and we are always happy with each other except when he drinks and then he gets cranky or foolish.
Now I have a proposal of marriage from a man of 32 who has provided a nice home. He is a good man and who appears to care for me.
I respect and admire him, but
I don't love him. I told him that
I didn't, but he is confident that
I will learn to love him when we
are married. Kindly give me
your advice on this latter.
KAY.
Dear Kay:
As I see it, neither one of them is the man for you.
Of course, a car, a fur coat, and a pretty home are temptations but you would get very little happiness from them. You know that you don't love the man. He could never do enough to please you and as time goes on you'd scarcely be able to tolerate him. If you don't love your man before marriage, it's a sure bet that you won't after marriage.
As for the younger fellow, you'd be taking a foolish chance, it's bad enough to have a man with an unsteady salary, much less with an unsteady mind.
You've got ten years at least before you start worrying about not getting married. Take your time and keep your love until "HE" comes.
In a happy marriage the elements of love, trust, and respect must be present.

"Many Are Used as Blinds for Illegal Pursuits"
out experience and with economic starvation facing them are too prone to give their babies out to the nearest farm at hand—one can hardly blame them for doing this—but the interest in the lives of their babies should serve to guide their selection of more sanitary farms and nurses.
This practice appears to have grown out of the ancient habit of parents of leaving their young children in the care of the neighbor next door. Then the situation assumed commercial aspects, and now we have the presence of the lives of the children themselves. The Department of Health has shown a willingness to co-operate with the leaders of the community in legal prosecutions wherever violations of the law are called to its attention.
The Department of Health prescribes that all operators of baby farms, in order to obtain a permit, should present a doctor's certificate from a registered health physician, and that a regular report as to sanitation, morality and general appointment must be made by a department inspector.
Parents should see that persons with whom they leave their children have one of these permits, and should notify the Department of Health of any unsatisfactory conditions they encounter at a baby farm. They should be careful not to send their children to farms which are used as a "blind" to coverImprudine practices; they should report to the Department of Health any drunkenness discovered on the part of farmers.
In West 131st street, during the closing week of July, the police were forced to place one of these farmers under arrest who had used her baby farm as a "blind" for other degrading practices. At Fifth avenue and East 134th street, prohibition agents broke into one of these so-called day-nurseryes and arrested the farmer and her husband, charging them with selling and manufacturing "hootch."
Just across the street from the Harlem Hospital, on Saturday evening of June 25, the police wagon was backed up to a basement and more than forty crop shooters taken from a baby farm and placed under arrest. The babies were left in the care of a child seven years old for the entire night and Sunday morning.
It is bad enough to read that the New York Negro has the highest infant mortality rate in the belly. We know that there are certain normal economic reasons for this—normal because they prevent the colored man from earning a competent salary—but we cannot permit them to continue to take toll of human life if there is any way to prevent it.

TREAT GETS BARE TREAT.
Joseph Treat, bellhop at the St. Paul Hotel, Columbus avenue and Sixth street, was given the rare opportunity to speak the early part of last week. He saw four armed bandits stalk into the hotel and stick up. Thomas was surprised when they demanded to open the gate.

Nail & Parker Purchase Option on Exclusive Colony Near Bar Harbor
Sorrento, in Heart of Maine's Exclusive Resorts, Comprising 1,200 Lots, May Be Developed by New York's Leading Brokers
The genesis for the establishment of what promises to be an exclusive Negro colony at Sorrento, Maine, directly across the narrow cove from aristocratic Bar Harbor, began with the recent purchase of the option on 1,200 quarter-acres at Sorrento by the realty firm of Nail & Parker, 145 West 135th street, who bought the option from Joseph S. Edelman, 151 West Fortieth street. The negotiation was consummated August 30. The Mann Realty Company are the owners of the property.

Sorrento adjoins Winter Harbor Bar Harbor and Frenchman's Bay, and these comprise the heart of one of America's most exclusive summer colonies. Construction is said to have been expressed at Negroes invading this exclusive territory. Stroud Rodick, real estate broker of Bar Harbor, declared, however, that conditions at young men looked helplessly on while the thieves pay $45 from the register in the cashier's office and another $60 from Charless pockets.
CRACKS COP WITH
STICK OF WOOD
Preceding his arraignment in
Heights Court yesterday, Samuel
Morse, 35, 201 West 148th street,
accused of cracking Patrolman
Walton of the West 135th street
station on the legs with a stick of
wood when Walton attempted to
arrest him when he found a danger-
ous knife on him, was held in
$1,500 bail by Magistrate Douras
in. Heights Court, Thursday,
charged with felonious assault and
violation of the Sullivan law.
ALLEGED PURSE SNATCHER CAUGHT.
Glover Goodman, 34, 17 West
118th street, was arrested about
4:30 a. m. Monday following his
alleged attempt to snatch a woman
's purse containing $45, at 17
West 118th street. The arrest
was made. Petrolman Gallo of
123d street station, who
baled Goodman and Magistrate
Vitale in Heights Court, where
he was held in $2,500 bail for a
further hearing Friday.
Bar Harbor would not be affected in the slightest by this new venture.
The various estates will cost from $30,000 to $100,000, it is reported.
The development of Sorrento promises to include a clubhouse, golf links and tennis courts, and the bathing establishment will face that of Bar Harbor, the summer homes of John D. Rockefeller Jr., Mrs. William Pierson Hamilton, a sister of the late J. Pierpont Morgan; Mrs. Henry F. Dornick, sister of the late William C. Whitney; Philip Livingston Vance McCormick and Wynant Mervool; this new venture, it is will be the first of its kind in the world and it is understood that discrimination will be shown in the type of resident approached and that it will not be entirely a matter of money.
The intention of the backers is said to be to have only a few families at first and gradually build up the place with the most desirable element.
In view of the fact that this is not the first time such options have been secured on property in exclusive sections, which in the end came to naught by being later repurchased by white people, many profess to see in the anouncement nothing more than a scheme to force the sale of Sorento by injecting the color question into it. However, many well-to-do citizens of color all over the country have longed for just such a place and, if the brokers consummate the sale, it is believed that it would prove profitable to them.
Dog's Howl Leads to Finding Aged Man Dead
TRENTON, Sept. 4—The howling of a dog led neighbors to the storm-scarred shack in Borden-town where John Roberts, age 74, had struggled to support his sister, Sarah, 72, until age slackened his footsteps and bowed his hands. When neighbors broke in they found Roberts dead. He was leaming against a wall, apparently dying while watching over his sister, who was critically ill in a chair across the cheerless room. Both had suffered from neglect, county authorities saluted, and taken to the hospital of the Burlington County Home for the Aged. Neighbors will pay for the burial of faithful old man Mayor John Frederick of Borden-town had requested that the couple go to the poorhouse, but they both knew this meant separation and both refused.
"I just can't live without Sarah," said John, "andbesides,Ipromised Poppy and Mammy Dk leer for her just as long as I was able. We'll get along somehow." John worked the little vegetable patch in the rear of his home until about a year ago, when weakness made him incapable. Mayor Frederick did what he could for John and Sarah and had provided sent to them from time to time. John and Sarah were respected by the townfolk."Never a more loving pair was known," was one of the tributes paid yesterday.

Rockaway Beach
Rockaway Beach
THE LONG ISLAND Daily Press told recently how the Rockaway home owners are up in arms because of large invasion of Negroes, and that a majority of property owners declare for segregation as a check.
ROCKAWAY is too near all other parts of New York State for segregation to thrive there without spreading out to include the entire state. Cities, like people, seldom benefit by the bitter experiences of others. If Rockaway were wise she would remember Detroit and Washington and throw overboard all thought of segregation as the way to solve its problem.
THE TROUBLE with segregation is that it segregates racial goodwill and sympathy. It puts both races in hostile camps and the end is often wrecked properties and embittered lives, and a few casualties.
A BETTER WAY for Rockaway property owners is to dismiss their passions and welcome such means as will bring the two racial groups to discuss dispassionately their common problem. Perhaps, some of the white property owners will be surprised that many of the Negro home owners enjoy as much civic pride as they themselves and guard just as jealously the peace and prosperity of the town. A mutual conference is always rewarding.
MUCH of the difficulty of the problem at Rockaway seems strictly mental. The white home owners fear trouble, because they nurse resentment. Let them first mentally disarm themselves of bitterness and believe that their difficulties need not end in racial clashes.
IN OUR AGE when often one racial group is on the heels of another in possessing the land often some agreement or understanding or conference may conserve land values and keep the peace of a community. At least, nothing beats a trial. To keep goodwill freely showering a community is of far more value than to keep the prices of real estate at top notch.
OUR BEACHES-one and all are the recreation grounds for the masses. We advocate an open door policy of all beach places of a public nature. We would have no racial group discriminated against. We would urge all cases of friction to be passed on to a board of arbiters, composed of leaders of interested races.

The Flogging of White Men
FLOGGING is a new kink in the Southern white man's way of dealing with white men. The other day a mob of masked men dragged a white man and his wife out of bed and gave them a flogging. The outraged victim has sought the court to punish the culprits. If the alleged floggers are convicted it will be a hopeful sign that justice may yet be within the reach of all, it matters not what one's race may be.
THE ENTIRE machinery of government in the South is controlled by the white race—has been since the settlement of America. Its failure to function to correct injustice to a white man will be his own avowed failure. But his disintegrating conception of justice to all, meaning only white men, has stunted his own sense of justice. Now that he is victim of his own limitation his fight to get justice in the courts for a white man is rendered all the more difficult.
THIS COURT battle becomes significant. Justice is on trial in Texas. A victory over lawlessness is every race's victory, a defeat sounds the death knell of the Negro's hope for justice in Southern courts. White law breakers could not keep on violating the rights of the black man without compromising those of the white man. The epidemic of floggings of white men throughout the South proves that this assumption was correct.
Elks Show the Way
THE CHIEF criticism of Negro fraternal organizations has been that they put all their time and money on pomp and regalia and none on constructive racial work. Professor Kelly Miller, speaking on lodge funerals, said recently that Negroes put too much money in the ground.
THESE criticisms will soon be silenced if other Negro organizations follow the example of the Elks. This order maintains twenty-three scholarships in the leading universities of America, and at its recent convention in New York it voted $5,000 to the Infant Mortality Commission for the purpose of studying housing conditions and sanitation among colored people.
NO ONE can watch the great parades of Negro fraternities without being impressed by the tremendous potential power they represent. The mainspring of the Negro's power is coiled within his bosom, and it must be released and wisely directed. The Elks have shown the way.

Is the Negro a Living or a Dying Race?
By KELLY MILLER
Negro race is breeding from the bottom, but is dying out from the top. Where the parents produced six to ten children, the descendants are producing two or one or none. Some time ago I made a study of the eugenics of the Negro race, published in the Scientific Monthly. I took as my basis the Negro members of the faculty of Howard University. I ascertained the number of children of the families from which
PRESIDENT
they were derived. The average was over six children to the family. But the number of children which these educated sons and daughters had produced was less than two. I also took into account the unmarried members of the faculty and, judging from their ages, it did not seem likely that they were destined to improve their average. It so happened that the issue of the magazine in which my contribution was published contained a study of the fecundity of scientific men, with something like corresponding results, with this striking exception, the white men, for the most part, were married, while a large proportion of the Negroes of like age were single.
According to my general observation, this condition is general among the advanced section of the race. In the first place, a large number remain single from a sense of prudence or of cowardice. In the second place, many married couples are childless. And in the third place, a large number have only one or two children. Here, in the city of Washington, these three groups are dominant. Within the last ten years or so the school regulations have allowed teachers to continue in service after marriage. But the children are few and far between. Birth control is playing havoc with the fecundity of the Negro of the more favored class. How far down this too prudential practice is destined to descend is hard to predict. But it is clear that it is already of sufficiently widespread operation to impair seriously the productivity of the race.
A highly educated man of some fifty years called to see me the other day. He is a graduate of an Eastern college and has been attached to the faculty of an important institution for twenty-five years. He is married and is highly esteemed in the social life of his community. In response to my query as to how he was getting on, he returned a most satisfactory and enthusiastic answer. But when I asked him how many children called him father, his countenance grew serious as he responded, "None, thank God. I would feel most miserable to bring children into the world to met with the

LOUIS L. DOUBLIN, statistician of the Metropolitan Life Insurance Company, contributes an interesting article to the September number of the American Mercury upon the vital problems of the Negro race. He is, perhaps, the highest authority upon that subject, as he has the handling of two million cases of Negro policies in his company. His analysis is thorough and his findings based upon supporting facts. Those who have followed his outgivings on the subject from time to time are well aware of his sympathetic and optimistic attitude.
Mr. Dublin permits himself to indulge in prophecy as to the maximum strength of the Negro element, placing the limit at fifteen million. But he is cautious enough to say that all such prophecy is hazardous and without scientific value. One man's guess is about as good as another's. There are so many uncertain factors that there is no safeguard for a sane judgment. The figures of the Census Office are subject to such irregularities that they often mislead the hardy philosopher into untenable conclusions. Thus, Mr. Dublin tells that thirty years ago there was much gloomy prediction concerning the early extinction of the African on account of his inherent degenerative tendencies. These are all discredited by more recent showings.
The census of 1920 is obviously incorrect for reasons which I have found out elsewhere. It is easy to predict that this will be shown abundantly by the forthcoming census of 1930. This leads me to say that every effort should be stressed to see that this census is correct so far as the Negro factor is concerned.
The Negro in the United States is practically a subject race and is liable to the vicissitudes of all minorities under like conditions. The issues of life hard upon him and tend to grind him to powder unless he is strongly fortified by physical stamina. Negroes are the hardest worked, the poorest paid and the most ill-circumstanced of all of the complex elements of our population. If there be a streak of weakness it will be emphasized by harsh treatment and cruel usage. The stress and strain of our mechanical civilization is hard and severe. None but the fittest can hope to survive. The Indian could not stand it. He must either withdraw from the circle of its competition or succumb. But the Negro, so far, has stood the test. The harsh exactions of a slave regime did not impair his physical vigor. Where either weaker varieties pine and die, he lives and multiplies and laughs. He has probably passed the most exacting experience he will be called on to meet with his physical vigor intact. The transition from slavery to freedom; the sudden shifting of the basis of existence from the support of the master to his own endeavor and direction, was perhaps as great a strain as any race has ever been called upon to meet. And, yet, four million slaves in 1860 had grown into ten million free men in 1920. This tells the story of the Negro's physical stamina as nothing else can do.
If there is any danger of the ultimate extinction of the Negro race in this country, it will grow out of psychic rather than physical reasons. The spirit of pessimism spells the doom of any people. Up to the present, the

Defends Dutch Guiana
To the Editor of The Amsterdam News. Dear Sir:
Recently, in your paper of August 24, while the Pan-African Congress was in session, some statement was made regarding Dutch Gulana, which I wish to rectify.
The speaker, or writer, claimed that the educational system of same was very backward, but through the medium of your paper may I inform him of the following: The educational system of Dutch Gulana, although bold to state, surpasses that of any English speaking country by careful survey of the various systems.
Our public school subjects, the majority of them, are equal to any United States high school subjects, and our high schools (paying schools), which are on par with any college, are in some instances higher than those of any English speaking country.
If the speaker means to refer to the glorious past and heroism of our forefathers in Africa and regarding Negro history, I'll agree with him that with the exception of a few, the majority of Negroes in the Western Hemisphere do not know about same.
For further guidance, may I advise him to read the different books such as Tiffany and Vandercook's about Dufch Gulanna. Does he know about the Bush Negro, a race of people who have been unconquerable by both white and black people—a race we can be proud of.
Very truly yours.

lot of the Negro race." This pessimistic wall indicates race suicide with a vengeance. With this brand of philosophy the race would soon cease to breed from the top, and may be from the bottom, too.
It is said that the fashionable among the white race practice birth control in order to give the parents wider latitude for pleasure or to give the fewer children better opportunity of education and culture. But I believe that the Negro alone acknowledges that he does not desire children by reason of the fierce fight which they must face. This is essential cowardice, which, I believe, is limited to the Negro alone. If a good Presbyterian should stop to think that he might possibly be the parent of a child predestined to eternal damnation, the race of that denomination might become extinct. Why should anyone bring children into the world—all of whom are bound to suffer the agonies of death? The first law of God and nature is to multiply, replenish the earth and subdue it. It is only the coward and the craven who shrink from this God-imposed task. Those who say and do these things declare by their deeds that they lack faith; faith in themselves and in their possibilities, indeed, the human race would be better off if it were never reinforced from such imbecility.
What the Negro race needs is courage and hope which can look beyond the present untoward condition of things and visualize the possibilities of humanity. Imagine the forebears of Abraham Lincoln indulging in such fatuous folly. Suppose that the parents of Shakespeare had reasoned thus. What right have we to foredetermine the possibilities of a human soul?
I once listened to a play called "Rachel," produced by a good friend of mine, whose motive was to proclaim the doctrine of race suicide because of the gloomy prospect. This is the counsel of death. The Negro race possesses natural physical stamina that will enable it to stand the stress and strain of
Blades of Steel
IN Rudolph Fisher's new story,
"Blades of Steel," appearing
in the current month's "Atlantic
Monthly," the author sustains
his well-earned reputation as a
discriminating short story writer.
"Blades of Steel" is a tale of
135th street, the heart and
soul of Negro Harlem.
This is the place; the time is
the day of the Barbers' Annual
Ball. Out of these commonplace
surroundings Mr. Fisher weaves
a tragic romance. It is in this
phase of the story that the
author betrays the genius of the
short story writer—the same
that De Maupassant portrays in
"The Coward" and Edgar Allan
Poe in "The Pit and The Pend-
ulum."
DeMaupassant used Paris for his chess-board, while Fisher moves his dusky pawns over the field of Negro Harlem, a location quite as interesting in many ways as "dear Paree." The pawns in Fisher's story are few in number. This is one of Mr. Fisher's idiosyncrasies and one to be admired, as it tends to concentrate one's interest. There are two men and the girl, with one or two side characters, such as "Pop" Overton, the head barber, and others. Interest centers around the

ALBERRY A. WHITMAN was born in Kentucky in 1857. He was a slave. Whitman graduated from Wilberforce University and soon after became its financial agent.
Whitman published in 1877 at Springfield, Ohio, a volume of his poems entitled, "Not a Man and Yet a Man." Then in 1884 appeared his longest and most ambitious work, "Twasinta's Seminoles, or The Rape of Florida," modeled after Lonfellow's "Iliawatha." In 1890 he reissued his first volume of poems, with an additional collection, entitled, "Drifted Leaves." His last publication, 1901, was "An Idyll of the South."
As a poet Whitman was in the minor class. Although he has composed some excellent lines, he never attained very much as a master of the art. He occupies a poet an inconsiderable place among his countrymen. But it has been thought proper to give some of his poems their proper merit. Whitman was intensely religious and sincere; and, above all, he endeavored to be simple,
the most cruel and exacting regime that an inquisitous civilization will or can impose upon it. But it cannot withstand the craven cowardice of those who would end all future generations for fear of bad dreams.
The Negro is now crowding into the cities. He is becoming intoxicated with the elixir of the pleasures and gaites of urban life. He is learning the secret and method of race suicide. A large number of children is an abomination to the cliff dwellers of city fenements. Those left in the country are longing to follow in the train of their kindred and friends. We may not now be able to predict just what the end will be. But if sound counsel can be made to prevail, the Negro will maintain his own as a component factor of the American people and will become heirs and joint heirs to all the good things in the patrimony of mankind. But neither God nor man can make any use of a dying race.

girl, Effic, with her fine hair and eyes and her "luminous seal-brown skin." One might complain that she was too capable of taking care of herself, and, perhaps, too much absorbed in her friend, Eddy Boyd; aside from this, no sane judgment, could criticize.
Eddy Boyd (Eight-ball), and "Dirty Yaller" Couzens are the antitheses of each other. "Dirty," so called from his complexion, is the perfect type of the bully and coward. "Eight-ball" is a dapper little dark gentleman, erect, well poised, with thin lips above a courageous chin, the beau ideal of little Eiffle. The climax comes at the end of the all-night ball, after the dancers have adjourned to Teddy's fine grill room. It was all over in a few minutes, and "Dirty Yaller" gets all that is coming to him. The dramatic closing scene is a complete victory for Eddy. When he hands "Dirty" a napkin to wipe his bloody face and escorts him to the door, with advice to go to the hospital, he shows himself up as a Harlem Sir Galahad. Indeed,

His power of managing argumentation in verse is extraordinary, as well as the power of expanding them into passages distinguished by every poetic ornament and the most energetic brevity. Regarded as a poet, while it is allowed that Whitman was deficient in invention, his other qualifications will scarcely be disputed.
The poetical merits of Whiteman undoubtedly stand most conspicuous in "Not a Man and Yet a Man," his first and best long composition, perhaps, of which natural description was made the staple, and certainly the most fertile of grand and beautiful delineations, in great measure deduced from the author's own observation. Its diction is somewhat cumbrous and labored, but energetic and expressive. Its versification does not denote a practised ear, but is seldom unpleasantly harsh. I give below three stanzas taken from "An Idyll of the South":
He was of manly beauty—brave and fair;
There was the Norman iron in his blood;
There was the Saxon in his sunny hair
That waved and tossed in an abandoned flood;
But Norman strength rose in his shoulders square,
And so, as manfully erect he stood,
Norse gods might read the likeness of their race.
He sings of the heroine:
A lithe and shapely beauty; like a deer
She looked in wistfulness and from you went:
With silken shyness shrank as if in fear.
And kept the distance of the innocent.
But when alone she holder would appear;
Then all her being into song was sent
To bound in cascades—ripple, whirl and gleam,
A headlong torrent in a crystal stream.
And he ends thus with much tragedy—that of their mutual love:
The hedges may obscure the sweetest bloom—
The orphan of the waste—the lowly flower:
While in the garden, faint for want of room.
The splendid failure pines within her bower.
There is a wide republic of perfumes.
In which the nameless waifs of sun and shower.
That scatter widely through the fields and woods.
Make the divineness of the solitudes.
To use another's expression:
After such a manner wrote those whom we may call hards of an elder day.
Albery A. Whitman died about twenty years ago.

The Tiger Lilies
FOUR gorgeous tiger lilies.
All growing on one stem.
With long and slender stamens.
And speckled, all of them.
I cut them very gently.
And placed them in a vase.
I watched them very closely.
And knew ouch spotted face.
One curled and died at sundown.
Another opened wide.
Another's petals shattered.
The fourth, her face did hide.
Ah' then, I thought of children.
Whose parents are the same.
Alike, and yet so different
In everything, but name.
