According to the son's story, his mother, Mrs. Dora George, gave a house party Saturday night and a good time was being had by all until Mrs. George saw her husband sitting on the bed in one of the bedrooms hugging Jesse Coleman, said to be one of his women friends. The wife objected and George is said to have replied: "This is my chicken," and the wife answered: "Well, I am your wife, and you will have to get out."
An argument arose between the man and wife and finally the son, Amos, ejected Miss Coleman, who objected to being put out and became very indignant.
George then ordered his son out of the house and father and son began fighting, ending by the son being slashed on the wrist and his coat out.
George then went out on the step with his friend, Miss Coleman, the son said, and Mrs. George followed. An altercation then arose between the husband and wife and George is said to have stabbed her in the neck, chest, tongue and jugular vein. Her son and a roomer, one Mr. Means, picked up the prostrate woman from the street and placed her in a taxi.
The husband started to run away, but became frightened at the condition of his wife and entered the taxi with them and drove to Harlem Hospital. Edna Dorssey, George's married sister, accompanied them also. When they arrived at the hospital Mrs. George was pronounced dead.
Mrs. George had always been in fear of her life and her husband had often threatened to kill her, it is reported. Mrs. George's body will be taken to Lurens, S. C., for burial.
DRUG ADDICT SAVED
FROM LIFE SENTENCE
Fred Estorge, 26, 113 West 131st street, was sent to the New York County Pentimentary for an indefinite term, instead of to Sing Sing for life, allowing his conviction for petty larceny on an indictment charging him with burglary as a fourth offender. Judge Conn, in Bronx County Court, at first refused to accept his plea of cruelty on the burglary indictment and intended to hold him as a fourth offender and sentence him for life. After it was revealed that Estorge was a confessed drug addict and that all of his offenses were petty and probably due to the use of drugs, he was saved from the life sentence.
Woman Held in Shooting
Joseph Scott. 28. 222 East 127th street, was sent to Harlem Hospital early last week in a serious condition with a bullet wound in his chest, said to have been fired from a gun held in the hands of Ella Barrett. 65, with whom Scott was a roomer. The woman was held on a charge of felonious assault and violation of the Sullivan Law.

George Terrence Jones. 21, 130 West 140th street, pleaded guilty to petty larceny and was sentenced to seven months in the City Prison Monday, by Judge Levine in Part IV of General Sessions Court. His attorney, Lester Murray Johnson, of the law firm of Rothwell, Harper and Mathews, 74 Trinity place, pointed out that Jones had already been in prison for seven months and made a motion that this time he applied on the sentence. The motion was granted and Jones was released. The stolen goods had long been returned.
Seven years ago Jones stole a bolt of goods from his employer, Louis Margolis, in West Twenty-seventh street, and was arrested and his case heard in Heights Court, where he was held in $1,500 ball for the Grand Jury. Junius M. Green, bondsman, 168 West 136th street, furnished for his release.
He was indicted by the Grand Jury with ball continued and called for a pleading before Judge Knott. His brother, whose name is George also, went before the Judge and pleaded for him, pleading not guilty. When the case came up for trial both men had skipped town. Bond was forfeited and a bench warrant sworn out for the arrest of George T. Jones.
Some time later Detective H. S. Boulin of the Boulin National Detective Agency was hired to apprehend the man. George Jones (not Terrence) was an agent for the Victory Life Insurance Life Company, and by a clever ruse of pretending to purchase insurance, George Jones was apprehended and identified by Mr. Green, the bondsman, but he was not arrested. He left the city.
On August 9 Detective Boulin apprehended and arrested George Jones and he complained of false arrest, hired a lawyer, and was released after habeas corpus proceedings on August 17, after the fingerprint record showed that he was not the man. Then The Amsterdam News published the story of his arrest, and George Jones entered suit against the paper for libel. George Terrence Jones had fed to Canada, but had occasion to bring suit against Watt Terry, millionaire real estate man, for the sum of $10,000 for the alleged falling of plaster on Jones' head in his apartment, owned by Terry. When the case came up he came back to the States under the name of Dewey Jones, under which name he entered suit.
Detective Boulin became suspicious and went to court, arriving just as the jury was being paneled. He identified George Terrence Jones, who also had a spy to watch for him, and when he entered the court to arrest Jones and turned his head to call a court attendant the spy substituted himself in Jones' seat and Jones ran.
Detective Boulin threw the court in complete disorder as he pursued the fugitive Jones, and placed him under arrest, giving the Judge the facts in the case. Jones was then held without ball to await trial. This was on March 20, 1927. On Oct. 17 he pleaded guilty to petty larceny he committed. Monday

1 1/2 TO 3 YEAR SENTENCE FOR DR. PERRY CHENEY
FIVE DISMISSED, 29 SUSPENDED IN HAMPTION STRIKE
HAMPTON INSTITUTE, Oct. 24.—Five students have been dismissed from Hampton Institute, twenty-nine suspended and thirty are at present on the temporary ineligible list for participation in the recent student strike. The dismissed students cannot return to Hampton Institute either during this session or at subsequent sessions.
The five dismissed are men students, although there are eight women students included on the list for disciplinary action by the administrative board. Those suspended will be denied readmission to the school during the 1927-1928 session, while the thirty included in the last group are ineligible for admission to the school at present. It is possible some of these students may be admitted later.
Dr. Gregg has emphasized that, although students have been dismissed, no student has been expelled. Expulsion means that a student cannot obtain entrance to any other school. It has also been announced that only one member of the football team was involved in the strike.
Many students who left Hampton October 13, when the institution was closed by the school officials, have returned or submitted applications for their return prior to Tuesday, October 25, when instruction will begin. Over 100 applications for readmission to the school were received by the vice-principal Friday.

Ramsey Several Months

Although a complete chock of the anticipated enrollment on the reopening of school is not available, it is thought that all with the exception of approximately 150 will reregister. It has been quite definitely determined that all but about 25 women students will return. Sixty male students will not be allowed to return at this time, and some others will find it difficult to return on account of finances.
Rumors and press reports announcing the intention of Dr. Thomas W. Turner and Dr. R. Nathaniel Dett to resign from the faculty of the school are absolutely false. Both men have been most loyal in their support of the administration in handling the strike and will continue in their present capacities.
Preparations for reopening the school have gone forward smoothly and everything was in readiness for resumption of instruction tomorrow (Tuesday).
ALUMNI TO SUPPORT ADMINISTRATIVE BARD.
A statement following a meeting of the executive committee of the Hampton Alumni Association, authorized by Charles H. Williams, chairman of the alumni visitation committee; Charles T. Russell and Mrs. Janie Porter Barrert, all members of the committee, was issued today as follows:
"The executive committee of the Hampton Alumni Association met in a special session at Hampton Institute October 21, 1927. This meeting, called by the chairman, Dr. W. E. Rold, was attended by alumni from various parts of the country. Letters and telegrams were read from distant alumni, who on account of short notice were unable to be present. After a five-hour session in which the committee heard all aspects of the recent difficulty at Hampton Institute, it was unanimously voted to support the administrative board in the efforts to maintain discipline at Hampton during the recent strike. "The visitation committee, operating with the executive committee, will co-operate with the school in adjusting matters, which it is hoped will make for better understanding on the part of the administration and the student body."

William Smelle, 48 St. Nicholas place, agent of the Victory Life Insurance Company here, was granted an absolute divorce from his wife, Flossy Mae Smelle, in. Supreme Court Monday, before Justice Whitaker. John J. Coyle, 110 East 125th street, was Mr. Smelle's attorney. The divorce proceedings grew out of the trapping of the wife and her alleged lover, Dr. James Ramsey, of Kansas City, in an apartment at 287 Edgecombe avenue last May 20 by operatives of the Boulin National Detective Agency, who had been watching the pair for several months. When the raid took place the pair are said to have just returned from New Haven, Conn., and Long Branch, N. J.
Dr. Ramsey has served time in Leavenworth Prison for violation of the narcotic laws.
The Smellies were married April 14, 1925, the wife being a native of Kansas City.

YOUNG WOMAN KILLS PORTER SHE SAYS "DONE HER WRONG"
Irene Johnson, 22, 418 West Thirty-sixth street, waited on the steps of the house Monday night with a revolver in her hand. She was waiting for Don Fisher, a Pullman porter and her admirer, who she suspected had been paying attention to other women.
Her worst fears were realized when a taxicab drove up and Don got out. Four young women were in the taxicab.
Irene walked across the sidewalk firing at every step. In four strides she was at the curb. Don lay on the sidewalk dead, one bullet having struck him in the heart and another drilled his head. The four young women fled shrieking. Irene got into the taxi.
"West Thirtieth street police station," she directed the driver.
She paid him and entered the police station. Throwing the revolver on the desk, she surrendered herself.
"I've shot my man," she explained, "because he done me wrong."

After "very careful consideration of the case," Judge William Allen sentenced Dr. Perry W. Cheney, who has offices at 200 West 1351st street, to not less than one year and one-half to not more than three years in Sing Sing Prison on a charge of second degree assault, in Part VI of General Sessions Court Friday at 11:32 a.m. Dr. Cheney was convicted October 13, after a trial that lasted two days, and he remained in the Tombs one week awaiting sentence. Cornelius W. McDougald, 200 Broadway, was his attorney.
Soon after sentence was pronounced Dr. Cheney was taken to Sing Sing.
The charge grew out of a street fight on December 26 when Dr. Cheney's car was struck at 1451st street and Eighth avenue by an auto driven by Hyman Pincus, white, 1416 Wythe place, who cursed and struck the doctor, and a fist fight between them began. John Torpey, white, 41 Bradhurst avenue, and several other white men saw the scuffle and are said to have joined in and beat Dr. Cheney, who declared that when he saw he was in grave danger he drew his penknife and struck blindly at his opponents in self-defense. Torpey was stabbed dangerously near the heart.

Henry Gallallard, 29, 225 West 146th street, charged with an attempt to swindle $4,400 from Hampton Mathews, 101 West 131st street, was held without ball for a further hearing when arraigned in Heights Court Friday before Magistrate Ewald. He was charged with grand larceny.
According to Mathews, he was coming home on a train last Tuesday from New Haven, when he met two men, with whom he entered into an argument concerning who had the most money. Mathews bet that he could show them over $4,000. Whereupon they agreed upon a meeting at the Empire Savings Bank, 231 West, 125th street. Mathews drew out his money, $4,400, leaving a small balance. Gallallard then made his appearance in the case.
The bet was $800 to $100 and the third man held the stakes. They walked through a store to 124th street, where Mathews showed his money and claimed his bet. Gallallard then demanded that he let him count it, and when he refused he is said to have snatched it from him. Then the fun began. The fight, attracted the attention of Patrolman Fox of the West 123d Street Station, who caught Gallallard when he ran. He protested his innocence and offered Mathews $75 of the $100 held by the unknown stakeholder.

Cheney, who has offices to not less than one year and one-year years in Sing Sing Prison on a assault, in Part VI of General Ses-32 a.m. Dr. Cheney was convicted that lasted two days, and he remained awaiting sentence. Cornelius W. W., was his attorney. As pronounced Dr. Cheney was taken of a street fight on December 26 as struck at 145th street and Eighth on by Hyman Pincus, white, 1416 and struck the doctor, and a fist John Torpey, white, 41 Bradhurst white men saw the scuffle and are beat Dr. Cheney, who declared that grave danger he drew his penknife opponents in self-defense. Torpey was the heart.
The fight was stopped by Patrolman George Hetzler of the West 135th street station who, although he rescued the doctor from the gang, immediately placed him under arrest on the complaint of Pincus and Torpey. Torpey was taken to Harlem hospital, where he remained thirteen days; the first two or three days of which he was not expected to live. He finally recovered, but declares his recovery is only partial.
Torpey is said to have remarked outside the court that he did not blame Dr. Cheney for stabbing him under the circumstances, as he had rushed into the fight merely on the basis of color without waiting to determine who was right.
Dr. Cheney was arraigned in Heights Court before Magistrate McKiniry in January on a charge of felonious assault. Three witnesses testified in his behalf, one of them declaring that he saw Torpey with an iron bar with which he drove him away when he came to the doctor's assistance. The District Attorney considered it the People's case after hearing the testimony, and Dr. Cheney was released on bond of $3,000 to await the action of the Grand Jury. His conviction and sentence came after several adjournments of the case over a period of ten months.
Attorney McDougald moved to have the vordict set aside on the ground that Torpey's witnesses had given conflicting testimony and that the vordict was against the weight of evidence. His motion was denied. He then pleaded for leniency, saying that his client had told a true and straightforward story without trying to embellish the facts in his favor. He also pointed out that to sentence

Pointed Out Leroy Leaks as Slayer and Latter Was Held in Tombs Prison for Three Months Before He Was Freed
A lie from the mouth of a known criminal without any supporting evidence neatly sent an innocent laboring man to the electric chair, it was revealed Thursday in General Sessions when Judge Koenig freed Leroy Leaks, 25, janitor at 29 West Ninety-ninth street, and dismissed a murder indictment against him. Leaks had been kept in prison three months and was to have gone on trial for killing Joseph Poricker, 32, white, grocery clerk employed in the store of Dresser & Shapiro at 200 West 140th street, on the night of March 28.
rwo
Leaks was granted his liberty upon recommendation of Assistant District Attorney Brothers and Attorney George William Clune, 21 East Fortieth street, who had been appointed by the court to defend him. His confinement rested solely on the word of Richard Daly, ex-convict, 150 West 140th street. Daly was arrested along with Thomas McCann, 60 West 142d street, and both were charged with robbery. They are also said to be the bandit pair who held up and robbed two detectives about two years ago.
Detective Sergeant Samuel J. Battle and Detective William Boyden of the West 135th street station, who were accused of "railreading" Leaks to the death chair on Daly's statement, denied this in most emphatic terms. Daly told Attorney China that he had named Leaks as the murderer because Battle and Boyden beat him to make him tell, and that he was thus compelled to "frame" Leaks with a lie to protect himself from their cruelty.
Not only did the detectives deny meting out any cruel treatment to Daly, but several other detectives and one civilian, who were in the station house at the time of Daly's arrest, corroborated their story.
Sergeant Battle told a reporter that Daly was hungry the night he arrested him, and that he and other detectives present bought him two chicken sandwiches, a pot of coffee and a piece of pie. After this small banquet Daly felt so good and grateful that he volunteered the information that he knew who killed the grocery clerk, the sergeant said. He then gave a complete and accurate description of Leaks and his address and said he would take the detectives to him. It is said.
The detectives and Daly crowded into an auto and went to the Ninery-ninth street address. Leaks and five men and a woman were standing on the corner conversing when the detectives drove up, and Daly instantly deposited Leaks out from among the rest. Sergeant Battle said, "I remarked several times," said Sergeant Battle, "that this man Leaks was not the murderer." However, Leaks was arrested, indicted, and was about to be tried for the murder when Daly's retraction saved him. Porlocker's slayer is as much a mystery as ever.
Attorney Clune's investigation disclosed that Leaks was in bed with the grippe under the doctor's care on the night of the killing, that he has a fine reputation and has never been arrested before. Leaks is now job less and penniless, but through it all his wife, Irene, has stuck by him. Leaks has a two-year-old son.
John Smith to Run for Alderman
Petition, However, Is Contested by Regular Democratic Organization
The name of Attorney John William Smith, 145 West 138th street, was submitted to the Board of Election in a petition signed by 1,690 persons, recommending that he be named for Alderman from the Twenty-first Aldermanio District on October 11. Only 662 names were needed, it is said.
Thomas Chicopee of a New York Democratic club filed a petition asking that the Board be restrained from placing Attorney Smith's name in nomination on the ground that 82 of the signatures appearing on the petition were of those who either had not registered or who did not vote in that district. This petition will be heard October 27 before Justice Valente in Special Term, Part I, of the Supreme Court. Attorney Smith, who was elected Alderman in 1823 and served until 1925, is running as an independent candidate on the Independent Voters' ticket.
Children Saved at Fire
Thirteen persons were rescued with difficulty from the fifth and sixth floors at 2254 Fifth avenue Saturday afternoon when a two-alarm fire blocked their exit through the hallways. The fire was discovered by Patrolman Davidson of the West 125th street station, who turned in an alley. The fire spread rapidly, and Hook and Ladder 30 arrived and carrled eight children and five adults to safety.

BOSTON, Oct. 24.—Elder Grossman was found guilty on two counts of larceny and one for collecting funds for an institution without authority to do so, by a jury in Suffolk Supreme Court on Friday. He was tried on complaints of Morris Freedman and Lawrence Laskey, who testified that Grossman, addressing them "Good morning" in perfect Yiddish, sought funds from them with which to build a temple or synagogue in Dorchester.
Grossman, with flowing beard and bearing all the earmarks of a Jewish rabbi, except for his dark hue, said that his real name was Elder and answered "What does it matter?" when asked by the assistant district attorney if the "Elder" was a Christian name or one which had been conferred upon him. He admitted having asked subscriptions, but said they were for a temple to be built at 304 West 137th street, New York City. He didn't even know where Dorchester was, he said. He also said that his society, which was not religious, has headquarters at 2367 Seventh avenue, New York City.
Final disposition of the case will be announced by Judge Hayden next Thursday.

him to prison would deprive his wife and six months' old baby of his support, and that he would also suffer the loss of his physician's license. Attorney McBougland said that he had been before the Medical Board of Regents and was told that his client would lose his license, but might have it restored upon proof of extenuating circumstances. The court was also reminded that Dr. Cheney had served his country as a Heutenian in the World War, and that Dr. Leo Flitz Neason, head of the medical corps of the 369th Regiment, and Colonel William Taylor, also of the 369th, had resisted as character witnesses in his behalf.
At the trial the District Attorney called a number of witnesses who denied that a crowd of whites had attacked and beaten the doctor and that Torpay was not engaged in the fight. Attorney McDougald said that these witnesses lied, but he was apparently unable to prove that Torpey had attacked Dr. Cheney with an iron pipe.
Judge Allen was clearly in sympathy with the plaintiff, Torpey, and expressed his belief that the jury should have brought in a verdict of first degree assault. He declared that Dr. Cheney had been very ably defended and that his character witnesses indicated him to be a man of high standing and superior training and intelligence.
A good reputation with his employer and his war record saved Ellsworth Jackson, 32, 17 West 135th street, from five years in Sing Sing on a charge of robbery when tried in Bronx County Court Thursday before Justice Cohn.
Jackson said that while working for Morris Horowitz, white, 212 Brook avenue, on Sept. 12, he found a greasy bag on his employer's desk and thought it contained something to eat. He took it outside and found it contained $249. The shock and temptation were too strong for him, and he soon found himself in a speakeasy, he said, where he lost it all.
Mr. Horowitz declared Jackson to be a good worker and, the judge having suspended sentence on Jackson, will give him his old job back at $25 a week and deduct $5 a week toward payment of the money. At Mr. Horowitz's request Judgo Cohn suspended sentence when he learned that in the World War Jackson had conducted himself with marked bravery under fire in the front line trenches and was cited for heroic action during the battle of the Argonne Forest.
"But this is the last time your war record will save you," the judge warned when he saw that Jackson had had a previous conviction.
Seek Missing Couple In 149th St. Slaying
Following an altercation in apartment 10 at 228 West 149th street, where two couples lived, last Tuesday night, Thomas Williams, 31, was shot to death and police are searching for Thomas D. Clark (C. D. Clark), 34, and his wife, Carrie. Mrs. Williams, wife of the slain man, could not be located for an interview.
When detectives from the West 135th Street Station arrived they found a trail of blood leading from the apartment to the street, which led them to believe that one of the Clarks was injured. The missing husband is being charged with the crime.

"I have received nearly sixty letters from those interested in this case, speaking in your behalf," said Judge Allen addressing Dr. Cheney, who stood silently at the bar with a mien of solemn gravity. "Quite a number of my personal friends have spoken to me in your behalf and I told them that I would give your case very careful consideration.
"But all the while the thought uppermost in my mind was whether they would have been coming to me in your behalf if it had been their son in his early twenties, like this young man, and he had been so brutally stabbed. . . . It is fortunate for you that his life has been spared."
Judge Allen then declared that he believed Dr. Cheney lied when he testified that he struck out blindly with his pennkite and did not know that he had stabbed Torpey. "I hope the time will soon come when the District Attorneys will have more time in which to investigate cases of perjury." He also accepted the testimony of the prosecution that the doctor was not set upon or beaten by a crowd of, white men.
"I have looked in vain for any ex-
tennailing circumstances," the judge continued. "... A man of your training, experience and superior intelligence should have exercised more self-control and found other means of self-defense." Sentence was then pronounced: Attorney McDougal said he would file an appeal. With locked features and blanched lips Dr. Cheney was led away to begin his term in prison. All efforts to save him had failed. Mrs. Cheney was not permitted to see her husband in the Tombs cell.
The doctor's wife reacted to the situation with admirable poise and frittitude and did not weep. "I am the only friend the doctor has to stick by him now," Mrs. Cheney said. "I feel this just as keenly as any wife would who loves her husband, but I cannot see the wisdom of going to pieces now, when I need all my strength to fight for him and to take care of our baby."
Last March Dr. Cheney was involved in a slander suit brought against him by Mrs. Elaine Douglass, widow of a World War veteran, in which she was awarded $3,000 in a $50,000 suit against him and the publishers of the Interstate Tattler. In an alleged Interview with Dr. Cheney, published in the Interstate Tattler, he was charged with calling Mrs. Douglass an adventurer who had a criminal record in West Virginia.
On February 1, 1926, Mrs. Douglass was awarded a verdict of $600 and costs against Dr. Cheney for the return of this amount which she said she loaned him in July, 1925, at which time they were very friendly and end were engaged to be married, it was reported. At the trial in the Seventh District Municipal Court, before Justice John R. Davies, Mrs. Douglass testified that Dr. Cheney had borrowed the money from her to get some of his alleged "numbers runners" out of jail, the doctor having become a "numbers banker" to curtail his income, she said.
Further testimony revealed that, on the night of November 20, 1925, Mrs. Douglass went to Dr. Cheney's home at 574 St. Nicholas avenue to force him to pay her the money. He had promised to marry her, Mrs. Douglass testified, and she was about to become a mother. Newspaper reports declared that Mrs. Douglass went there with a gun to force the doctor to marry her and that shots were fired. Dr. Cheney denied this and said that she had come to him to have an illegal operation performed and that he refused. No shots were fired, he said, as he took the gun from her before she had a chance to fire.
Prior to this time Mrs. Douglass, in despair over her condition and the doctor's alleged unfair treatment, attempted to commit suicide and was removed to Harlem Hospital.
Her attorney, Abraham Grenthal, characterized Dr. Cheney as a cur

Mamie Todd
Tells of Plot
Swears Bessie Morse Asked Her to Hire Gunmen to Kill Relatives
Amid excited protestations that she "didn't believe in murder herself," and had acted only as a gobetween, Mamie Todd, maid, testified Monday in New Brunswick, N.J., that she had been instructed by her mistress, Bessie Morse, white, to employ gunmen to kill members of the Morsa family, allegedly in order that her employer might not have to divide an inheritance.
The maid and Miss Morse, who is 40 years old, are charged with conspiracy to murder. It is alleged that Miss Morse sought the deaths of her sister, Mrs. Grace Dey, the latter's husband, Elmer, and their adopted son, Raymond Britton. It is also charged that Miss Morse's father, George F. Morse, was at one time an intended victim. Morse has since died as the result of an automobile accident.
The charge is based largely on the story of the maid, coupled with the accusations of a detective and a special investigator that they were approached by the maid and
Extravagant to Pay More
offered money to do the murder.
The maid believed that they were
gunmen, it is alleged. Mamie Todd
insists that she actually paid $260
on account for the murders.
The maid was very excited as she testified before the nine men and three women on the jury. She frequently shouted: her defiance when attorneys for Miss Morse interrupted her story with objections. She asserted that she had approached William Chasney of Matawan, a white fish peddler, and asked him if he wanted to make $1,000 by killing the Morse family. She said that Chasney professed interest and introduced her to "Lambertson," "Mickey" and John Krueger. Krueger and "Mickey" (George David) were investigators employed by Prosecutor Toolan. They carried on the negotiations in some detail before the arrests of the maid and her mistress.
Her account was corroborated by the fish peddler and by Holmes Lambertson, his assistant. Chaney said that he had reported the matter to the county detectives and introduced the two investigators as gunmen. He said, also, that he had never seen Miss Morse, although he said that the detectives had asked to see her.
WOMAN GETS LIGHT SENTENCE
Gheochester Glascoe, 26, who, crazed with fear, hacked her husband's body to pieces last June after he had met his death by running onto a knife held in her hand, with which she is said to have been defending herself from his brutality, was sentenced to from five and a half years to fifteen years in prison on a charge of second degree manslaughter, in General Sessions Court Thursday before Justice Koenig.

ints That President Coolidge, by His Silence, Endorses Segregation as a Republican Policy
Moorfield Storey, president of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, has written a letter to direct Work, U. S. Secretary of the Interior, warning him that Negro voters are determined to end segregation in the government departments in Washington and that votes will be against candidates responsible for a segregation policy. Storey's letter in full is as follows:
Mr. Dr. Work:
I was very much amazed at your reply to Mr. Thomas' representation in regard to the segregation of whites and colored employees in our department, and your suggestion that the colored employees did not make any fuss if the outliers did not interfere.
There are now upwards of 12,000, colored American citizens in the country who have under the institution and law every right that belongs to their white fellow citizens.
Commits Suicide While Wife's Out
Escaping Gas Fumes Aroused Neighbors of Zachary Halland
There is a systematic movement over the country from white people to deny those rights. There is a movement to prevent their living in the same neighborhood with white people, although the Supreme Court has declared that any statute that effect violates the Constitution.
Another movement is made to exclude them from public parks, public bathing places, theatres, restaurants and other public places. Still third would keep them out of public buildings or give them very inferior accommodations, in portions of the country they are lynched and their property rights interfered with, but there is adequate attempt to enforce their rights in the courts.
A law which will give the United States courts jurisdiction over lynchings has passed the House of Representatives and would pass the enactment if it came to a vote, but it was defeated by filibustering. These movements against our show citizens exasperate a great many leading Americans, and we are determined that these movements shall stop. Mr. Coolidge has repeatedly given voice to strong expressions of sympathy addressed herups, to Negro conventions and other gatherings of colored people, but nothing has been done to carry out those expressions and the exasperation has increased in consequence.
From the time the Civil War endured through the administrations of Lincoln, Johnson, Grant, Hayes, Hartford, Cleveland, Harrison and Roosevelt there was no segregation in the departments. Black and white stood alike in the service of the United States at Washington. Beginning with "Mr. Taft's declaration that he would not appoint a colored person to office in any community where colored men were not desired there has been a steady segregation, and the practice which was good enough for Lincoln and Cleveland is now abandoned by the Government officials in Washington. The whole movement against the rights of the colored people flurishes under the example of the Republican officers in Washington, and if we say to any community that this segregation shall stop and that it is unconstitutional, the answer can be made—"Why, the Government officers in Washington are segregated, and the President justifies it, or does nothing to prevent."
It is proper that you should understand that this practice is very bitterly condemned by a great many American citizens, and they are determined that in the forthcoming election the colored vote shall be cast against all who favor these practices, or who having the power do nothing to stop it. This will affect everybody who takes part in the segregation enforcement, and it must be understood that the colored voters are determined how to vote so as to secure their rights, and to grape everyone who denies them their opposition.
Pleads Not Guilty
To Murder Charge
Charles J. Young, who, in a quarrel over a watch and chain, tatally stabbed Albert Benford of lower Jersey City several weeks ago, last Thursday entered a plea of not guilty to a charge of murder for which he was indicted Tuesday by the Grand Jury. Robert S. Hargrove, his counsel, was with him in court when he pleaded before Judge Daniel T. O'Brien.
It is claimed Young used a carving knife on Benford and the weapon broke, the blade lodging in his victim's body. No date has been set as yet for Young's trial.

last Wednesday his neighbors
thought he was going to work, but
instead he shut, tight all windows
and doors and turned the jets in the
gas stove on and lay down across
the bed in his bathrobe and slept his
last long sleep. When his wife,
Clara, come home at one o'clock in
the afternoon the police told her
that her husband had been dead
seven hours. Grief over his wife's
alleged unfaithfulness is said to have
been the cause of Halland's suicide.
Mrs. Halland, who is about 30
years old, when interviewed by a
reporter admitted that she knew her
husband's motive for self-destruction, but refused to discuss the matter.
Gas fumes were noticeable a few hours before Mrs. Halland's arrival, and the police were summoned. Patrolman Brisneane and several others of the West 153th street station broke into the apartment, shut off the gas, throw up the windows, and saw Halland lying upon the bed in the middle room. Dr. Ghee arrived from Harlem Hospital and the emergency crew from the Consolidated Gas Company were also sent for, but Halland was already dead, said Dr. Ghee.

Woman Held in Bail Charged With Larceny
Charged with grand larceny, Clarice Breathwaite, 22, 115 West 143d street, was held in $1,500 ball for the Grand Jury when arraigned before Magistrate Ewald in Heights Court Friday. She was arrested by Patrolman Judon of Traffic C on complaint of Ethel Edwards, 23, 211 Fifth avenue.
Mrs. Edwards testified that on Sept. 27 she was obliged to leave the cilt to visit a sick relative and left her apartment in charge of Miss Braithwaite, to whom she gave instructions to remove her belongings to the storage house. Miss Braithwaite is said to have ordered the storage men to take the belongings to the Wilson Storage Co., but she retained bed linen, draperies, crackery, tapestries, clothing, pictures, rugs and some of the furniture, all valued at $800, for her own use, and later is said to have sold some of them. Her excuse was that Mrs. Barnes owed her $20.
SILVER'S NNIVERSARY SALE
Patrolman Martin E. Rhodes, assisted by Patrolmen De Stella and Scott, all of the West 135th street station, captured three white bandits Friday morning just ten minutes after they are said to have entered the restaurant of Paul Pollis, white, at 2689 Eighth avenue, corner 143d street, where $80.10 was taken from the cash register and a patron robbed of $4.85. The alleged hold-up men said they were Charles Larkins, 27, 523 West 52d street, Walter Connors, 35, 415 West 135th street, and Malick McMagh, 31, 252 West 148th street, all white. They were arraigned before Magistrate Ewald in Heights Court the day of their arrest and held without bail for a further hearing.
The daylight hold-up is said to have occurred at 10:45 a.m., when the robbers walked into the place and one of them drew a gun on the proprietor while another went to the cash register and took its contests of $30.10.

The Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters Thursday filed with the Interstate Commerce Commission a brief contending that the commission had power to investigate the tipping system on the Pullman linois, the abolition of which the brotherhood is seeking. The company contends the commission has no jurisdiction. The case is part of the brotherhood campaign to obtain recognition by the company.
"The essence of the brotherhood's ease is that tipping injures the service fendered the public by the Pullman Company," Mr. Hunt declared. "The company is a common carrier, and hence a public agent, and its porters are public servants. The company permits and encourages them to receive tips. Tipping produces discriminations in favor of the tip giver. The interstate commerce act commands equality of treatment among passengers. Tipping produces inequality and dis
crimination, and is therefore unlawful."
The brief admits that the commission has no jurisdiction in wage rates.
"One of the ugliest holdovers from slavery will end and equal economic opportunity for the Negro be greatly furthered if the commission holds the investigation and orders the tipping practice stopped," said Mr. Hunt.
In a petition filed with the Commission on Sept. 8 last, the Brotherhood charged the Pullman Company with violating Sections 1, 2, 3, 6 and 15 of the Interstate Commerce Act and called upon the Commission to investigate the conduct of the company with a view toward compelling it to cease from its alleged unlawful practices. On Sept. 17 the Commission notified the Pullman Company that it had twenty days in which to rectify the conditions or answer the charges of the Brotherhood.
Accordingly, on Oct. 7 the company filed its reply with the Commission in which the jurisdiction of the Commission to hear the petition was denied by the attorneys of the Pullman Company. Consequently, the question now before the Commission is its right to hear the evidence and correct the violations, if found to be as stated by the brotherhood, whose attorneys are of the opinion that the Commission is empowered to act under Section 13 specifically and the entire Interstate Commerce Act.

(A child was acquitted a child of Chinese descent to attend the public school provided for Negroes. It was submitted for decision without oral arguments. The court also laid the Lum, daughter of Gong Lam, an American citizen of Chinese descent, centenced in a brief that the child had been unwaffectedly excluded from a school where the school authorities insisted in his brief that State laws for the segregation of children by races in the public schools of Mississippi were not authorized of Chinese descent must go to a school provided for Negro children.

These Porters Want Tipping Continued
A get-together meeting of about seventy-five of the older porters of the Pennsylvania Terminal district was held at Tabb's grillroom last Tuesday evening. The object of this meeting was to express loyalty to the Pullman Company and to ask the Pullman Company to open up more avenues of employment for Negroes.
A. B. Broady was toastmaster and introduced the following speakers: G. W. Kirk, L. G. Slims, H. L. Minkley, W. C. Banks, P. A. Sample, and P. H. Waiden. Resolutions were introduced by W. C. McGray and H. L. Minkley endorsing the plan of employee representation and condemning the anti-ripping movement. Both of these resolutions were unanimously adopted.

Allen, secretary of the local Urban League, and Attorney Julian Rafay prestated to Mayor Nichols against the appointment of Dr. Federick L. Hoffman as consulting statistician for the Health Department of the city, which took effect on October 1.
Their objections to Dr. Hoffman, who is at present consulting statistician for the Prudential Life Insurance Company, have led to a search consulting statistician at the Babson Institute at Wellsley Hills, are based on the doctor's known writings infirmal to the Negroes' fitness as insurance risks in general and his specific statements in Volumes Nos. 1 to 3.

Lawyer Sues Former
Trustee of Church
Counsellor Robert S. Hartgrave, lawyer and churchman, recently instituted a suit against Roland Abrams, 2355 Boulevard, Jersey City, for slanderous actions to defame his character and name. He charges specifically that, white he was an pearling as counsel for the Rev. William A. Byrd on Oct. 11, before the First District Court, Abrams came to him and accused him of being the cause of the trouble between the pastor of the church and himself. It is said Hartgrave no good, a trouble maker, and that he intended to be his brains out. The other features of the charges are such as generally follow to sustain damages to the $10,000 mark in which the lawyer sues.
The action was instituted in the Shoreditch Mr. Hartgrave will be represented by former Judge Richard Dochter.

The following is a brief account of the Boy Scout movement in Harlem, as submitted by George Goodwin, executive field secretary of the movement:
Have you ever seen the boys of your community wearing a brown uniform, brown hat and colored kerrich about their necks and on the left side of their blouses all insignia in red: Boy Scouts of America? Those boys represent the individuals those boys take advantage of America's accepted program for boy development. Those boys, under proper adult leadership, are securing the five things that appeal to real boys without injury to themselves or the community they are. Food, Facts and a fellowship. The Boy Scout program belts the globe. Fifty-seven countries with a population of 1,540,000,000, or 91 percent of the world's population, have accepted this program for boys.

keep myself physically strong, mentally awake and morally straight." In the United States alone there are 700,000 boys and 180,000 scout masters who adhere to this oath. They stretch" from Malta to Florida and from the Atlantic to the Pacific. If they assembled in any one of large cities it would take four days and four nights for them to review. And at the basis of this great program is the Scout master, a man of character and vision, with a genuine interest in boys.
What part of this vast movement to give our boys the proper start in life do the citizens of Harlem represent? We have over 200,000 Negroes in our community and statisticians say that 20 per cent of the population of every community is made up of boys. That would give us 40,000 boys as our quota. But it is largely an assumption. However, it is clear that there are 9,800 Negro boys in Harlem between the ages of 12 and 17. Of these boys spend one-ninth of their time in school, two-ninths of it asleep, and five-ninths of it is totally unorganized. This holds true as far as the Scout movement is concerned, save for a mere handful—214, who are Boy Scouts. Has it ever occurred to you as to what they may be doing with most of their time? Playing in the streets, frequenting pool rooms, stealing, or nooning into the excitement they will and have. That yearning for adventure in a boy is a good sign, but unless it is properly directed it will prove dangerous.
Few boys are actually bad to the core, and the majority of that few are bad because no real effort has been made to understand them. Then, too, the boys of any given community are but a reflection of the daddies of that community. We is developed by constant training in the things worth while.
Ten thousand boys are waiting and wanting to be Boy Scouts. "Waiting for real live men—red-blooded and right-hearted, to lead them." There are twelve men and older boys trying to bridge this gap in Harlem today—a pitiful, yet gal-

IMPROVEMENT
FOR THIS MARVELOUS
This soft, satiny "feel" comes from an extremely thin "layer" of LINIT—invisible to the eye—left on the skin after the bath. This thin, porous coating of powder is evenly spread—not in spots that it may clog the pores—but thinly and evenly distributed over all parts of the body.
And the most astonishing thing about this new LINIT Beauty Bath is that the cost is negligible—practically a penny a bath.
The outstanding attraction of a LINIT Bath is that the results are immediate. You need not wait weeks for some sign of improvement in your skin—simply swish two or more handfuls of LINIT around in moderately warm water, bathe, and immediately you sense an entirely different supple softness in your skin.

The purpose of this course is to take the art of shading lamps a less problem than a lamp-maker, and it is hoped that those who have already d some experience as shade makers will find some practical us that will be of value to them, so subject is so many-sided that is quite possible that some point vital importance to some one particular worker may not seem to have the skill, so we will choose on or two particles of shades for treatment rough these columns and advance em step by step each week, from a selection of the frame to the lastishing touch. It would appeal us much to know at we shall please you to beautify some this fall by directing your mousse making.
Lampshade making should be insidered an art, as well as a art, and, with a little patience, a fitful workmanship and good taste, fine a lampshade as money can be produced at a fraction the cost of those offered in the ores. As a general rule, lighting fixtures of shades are accessories to a

room rather than a main feature. In fact, there is nothing much worse in interior decoration than lights which insist on making themselves apparent the moment one enters the room. Therefore, if the old lampade is to be replaced by a new one, it is well to consider whether the shape of the present frame is exactly right or whether a examine it critically and decide whether it is large enough for the base or top-heavy; or it may be that it takes up more space on the table than is necessary. Many a small room has taken on a crowded look because the lamp shade is too large. Inversely, a beautifully furnished room may lose the effect of dignity by insignificant fixtures and shades. Begin at once to visualize the size and colors that would relate themselves most hard to see to the fixture and decoration of the room.
The first lesson of this course will appear in next Wednesday's issue. If you are specially interested or wish any further information concerning the course kindly get in touch with me at The Amsterdam New office on Wednesday, Thursday or Friday afternoon between 4 and 5 o'clock; or communicate by letter, sending a self-addressed and stamped envelope.

When Witches Wake--
It's Hallowe'en!
Four more days and then the big, black broomsticks will be in use. Witches are going to fill the air with mystery. For those who care to entertain on Monday night, October 31, the following suggestions may be of value.
Decorations
Out of cardboard you may make skeletons and devils, witches and cats, cat faces and pumpkin faces. Crepe paper streamers in plain orange and black, or gally adorned with witches, cats and bats—even tiny seals of witches, cats and pumpkins pasted on the streamers—make attractive decorations.
Costumes.
For the masquerade party you may be a clown, pirate, skull, devil, or a girl from Spain or Holland, or a Colonial maiden. Don't forget that your costume may call for a wig, masque or hat—or all three of these.
Food.
No matter what you have for your guests to eat, you must have a sup of apples, doughnuts, apple cider, nuts (shalled and unshelled), figs dates and raisins.
Woman Fire Chief
A woman is the head of the ladder and hose brigade of the little town of Silver Springs, Md. Mrs. W. J. Brannon, white, is the doughy chief—probably the only woman fire department chiefain in the country.
HOUSEWINE'S EXCHANGE
RUGS, COMFORTERS, BLANKETS, PORTIERES, CURTAINS, DRAPERIES AND BEDSPREADS
ONE of my readers has directed my attention to the fact that the proper attire in the office and school is far more important than one would think. Is there any reason why we (meaning the office and school girls) should not look our best? Yes, but "looking best" does not mean sleeveless, ruffled, frilly dresses nor materials of the finest qualities. It does mean "looking best" in a business-like way. Simple plain lines, plain but neat and attractive. Serge, Jersey and flat crepes are very serviceable materials and may be brightened with a neat set of collars and cuffs. The dress in the picture is a good illustration of simplicity and trimness. The front pleats give enough variety and still do not detract from the business effect. Not so many satins—If so, get the darker shades. Your organdies and dames are even better for a party. Georgettes are very destructible, not practical, hence I do not advise, even the darker shades.
Care should be taken in buying your hose for business. Although colored shoes are fashionable, you should confine yourself to black or tan. It is needless to match the color of your shoes to the color of your dress. You can decide whether you decide to wear your yellow or orchid you will find yourself puzzled and finally have to return to the smart black slipper, which carries a suggestion of trimness, smartness and grace that adds to the charm of the entire costume. You will still the rage. All shades and styles, with two pins—one extending to the front, the other crossing—are indeed very pretty.
Canned Goods
Many housewives are deploring the fact that winter is approaching and very soon they will be unable to obtain fresh vegetables. There need not be any worry along this line. Canned vegetables are fresh vegetables preserved by heat. They lose little it any of the nutritive value of the raw product. Do not fear, the vegetables are preserved along scalloped lines and with such a large proportion of housekeepers using these canned foods, it is important that every woman know something about the preparation. First of all, no artificial colors or chemical preservatives are used in the canning of vegetables. The liquor in canned vegetables is pure water with salt added to taste. Do not throw this away; cook it down with the vegetables or add to your soups. Few vegetables enjoy so great a popularity as peas and corn. Still, you are very apt to get a different size pea or corn every time you make a purchase. To the average

The regular monthly party was given at the West 137th street branch of the Y. W. C. A. on Thursday.

They gooey masks for the girls to wear, plumed the ceremonial look of Hallowen on the wall; dimmed the lights in true Halloween style and hung candles high up on strings to be skimished for by the energetic.
The music was arranged for through the courtesy of Mrs. W. H. Spiller.

housewife, a can of corn is a can of corn; or a can of beans a can of beans. But when you stop to consider more about them, you will not let the grocer give you this grade or this quality because it is all he has at the time. You can size determine the grade of canned vegetables. Asparagus, beans and peas are graded by size. Peas are passed through a metal sieve and canned according to size. The smallest pea, known as petits pois, is the best and most expensive. The sifted pea is next in size, being a little larger than the full size pea. The full size pea, known as the telephone style, is not as tender nor as sweet, still less expensive and should

The Top of the Milk
When your milk comes in the morning, don't drink the cream or stir it up, but try this: Pour the top off and each night put the fresh cream into your face. If your next door neighbor brings up tips that follow upon this habit, Pat yours into your face and don't forget your neck. Drink your cream just where you want it, through the little pores.
After the cream pat, run over the face with a small piece enclosed we would seal the piece, we should hold the harsh hand of old age at bay, take your cream this way religiously.

not be used as a vegetable but in soups or sauces. Beets are canned in enamel-lined cans to preserve the color. They are canned sliced in quarters or whole, according to their site. Some canners grade them as baby, tiny, midgrown. Canned asparagus is very popular as a salad, as well as a vegetable. There are two kinds, white and green. The white is obtained by deep planting; the green grows above the ground. Asparagus is graded according to the thickness of the tuber. We shall have another talk about canned fruits and vegetables very soon, and will discuss the labeling, packing, etc. Then you can ask your dealer about the particulars, especially about the cans that do not hold water; you begin to this he will offer good goods and you will take advantage of sales in your neighborhood and stock up for the coming season.

Dear Miss Sharpe
I am a constant user of fresh cream. Will you tell me what to do to keep it fresh for days?
Mrs. F. S.
Dear Mrs. F. S:
I will eat a small carrot, wash and drop in bottle. This will keep cream absolutely fresh for ten days.
Dear Miss Sharpe:
When and how should I ventilate my bedroom?
Mrs. L. L.
Dear Mrs. L. L.
To ventilate your bedroom, raise your window two inches from the bottom and four from the top during the day. When you are ready to retire, open them wide at the top and bottom. Use your discretion according to the prevailing weather conditions.

"For several years I was denied the blessing of motherhood," writes Mrs. Margaret Burton of Kansas City. "I was terribly nervous and subject to periods of terrible suffering and melancholia. Now I am the proud mother of a beautiful little daughter and a true companion and inspiration to my husband. I believe hundreds of other women would like to know the secret of my happiness, and I will gladly reveal it to any married woman who will write me." Mrs. Burton offers her advice entirely without charge. She has nothing to sell. Letters should be addressed to Mrs. Margaret Burton, 256 Massachusetts, Kansas City, Mo.

_NEW YORK AMSTERDAM NEWS, WEDNESDAY, OCT. 26, 1927
Howard and the C. 1. A. A.
MUCH water has passed under this bridge sinco that eventful soar of
our Lord nineteen hundred and twenty-four, when Bob Miller, re-
nowned All-Anterican, athlete, made his famous hop, step and jump from
Union University to Dunbar High School and then to Howard University.
The controversy over the legality of that historic leap, which involved
conflleting interpretations of the playing rules of the Colored Intercol-
lopiate “Athletic Association, resulted in an open broach between the as-
sociation and its chief stockholder, Howard University. .
In spite of the profoundness of the principles claimed to be involved
in the dispute by each of the warring factions, the sport fraternity has
remained storleally cynical anont the worthwhileness of-the issues at the
root of this prolonged academic debate. To the man on the street, techni-
‘eal questions appear more or less vague and trivial {n comparison with
‘the main objective of Intorcolleglate athletics, which should be to promote
good-will between schools through the medium.of friendly athletic mo-
petition. Whatever the rgrits of the conflicting principles, the breach
‘has developed one corollary concerning whicd the parties of both parts
are iu Ununimous ngreoinent, namely, that athletics In “Negro colleges
have recelved the “rabbit punch” as a result of the fratricidal warfare.
Uniess a sane viewpoint that.ts motivated by a zeal to establish amateur
values in athletics supersedes the present. bitter conquest for contrél of
the polltical machinery of athletics, the yearning of Negroes for ono
group organization which shall function both to'encourage the maximym
participation of our athletes in amateur competition ax well as to establish
Contacts in the higher flelds of amateur sporis, will remain a forlorn
hope.» — =
‘When one contemplates the thousands of dollars expended eunually
to building up artifietal rivalries in one sport with a corresponding negiect
of other vital sports, plus the Mmitless energy wasted in propagating
nogative results in rival Institutions, one ts {nclined to doubr the wisdom
of big Ume sports. in Negro colleges. i -
Gan an athletic system be valled educational which overatresses fo0t-
ball during three months of the academic year and then relegates baskot-
ball, baseball and track athletics to the “ham and bean” class during the
other siz months of the calendsr? Can the same system be productive
jot good-will when the-chief beneficiaries of the football budget are neither
the schools, the players, nur Uo students, but matnly the railroads and
eateroriees ‘which afford no dfrect returns to the patrons on thelr inveat-
meat.
The net result of the open breach botwoen the schools which formed
tho old Colored Intercollegiate Athlette Association has heen a general
cooling off of that feeling of fellowsbip between undergraduates which
burned Ike a prairie fire during the years immediately preceding the rup-
ture of athletic relationships, plus & more or less bankrupt treasury on
both sides. Colleges owe {t to the public to toster principles of domoc
racy and brotherhood both in thelr Incra and extra-mural relationships; tc
[curb anobbishness: to set the example of unseltish service in racial co
operation. How better can these ends be achleved than by burying the
| hatchet and getting together for the good of amateur sports i
Giving McVey the Worst of It
TWAS © tow niinates after the fighi—s sort of onoweee ae ee act. |
Jack MeVey scored enough points to win half a dozen ordinary dect-
sions. An even more one-sided referee had taken advantage of a judgee’
disagreement and given Pete Latzd a draw the former welter champ
deserved no more than Babe Ruth merited a kick in the pants for his
sixty homers.
“Jack had retired to the Taylor Bowl dressing room, a very sad,
cresifallen boxer. He was whipped, this dejected colored Ind—trimmed
not by his ring opponent, but absolutely floored by one of the most un-
fair series of adverse decisions ever handed a visitor to our tistle arenas,
Only a few weeks before he had belted a much heavier warrior, Bob
Sage by name, from one end of the ring to the other. Yes, tlogged him
soundly, and yet— draw! An even Dreak for # victory as clean cit
as the glad rags he sported {n off duty tours
‘Adverse Verdicts Flatten Jack,

‘MeVey, a5 I bave related, had gone back under the stands for bis
bath and street togs. But littie appeal had elther shower or sporty duds
to the clever colored chap at this moment. That cool and collected de-
meanor that was his in the ring had departed—left him flat,
Down on an old wooden box he slumped, his head buried in the gloves
that still plowed his nifty fists. A changed boy If ever there was one?
-Avhat's the matter, John?" It was his manager, Maurice Caln. speak’
ing In a tone designed to cheer up the colored boy. “What's the trouble?
Are you hurt?"
Showly Jack raised his head, Tears were streaming from his oyes, an
unusual pleture indeed of this usually jovial knight of the squared circle.
‘ Ready to Quit.
“Mr. Cain,” be began, “T lke this game, just love to box. And T try
every minute i'm in there to sive the best I've got In me, But f guess I've
got to give it up!” =
“Oh, don't feel that way, John.” pleaded Cato, “Cheer up. Your luck
will take a tupn one of these day's, boy.”
"No, 1 don't guess 80,” sobbed McVey. “I beat thet fellow tonight.
‘And [beat that other mau, too, They just don't seom to lke me around
here. ‘I can't sce much uso in this fighting racket unless you can get
the decision when you earn It."
Well, Cain finally quieted him and headed for bis hotel. “You'll be all
right after a good sleep, John," he eucournged. “Hop up to your room
now and turn Jn.” g
Did Jack hop to his room? Not « bit of {t, no more than be had on
brighter ‘nights. Excusing himself trom the Httle gathering that had as
sembled he headed around the cqrner.
“Where's he going, Maurice?” one of the hoys inquired.
“To the phone booths, Golng to call up his mother in New York. He
always does that—win or lose.”

Drake-Walker At Lafayette
Popular Comedian and Company Score Big at Opening Show
Henry Drake blew into town on Monday, bringing with him a company of fifty of the fastest performers that have ever cavorted on the stage of a local theatre. The opening performance at the Lafayette caught out the largest matinee attendance of the season—an audience that kept the performers on the stage until night had fallen, responding to encores.
It is difficult to point to any one actor or as the feature of the show. Drake enjoys the enviable reputation of being the most successful of colored producers and in this show he has gathered together a most remarkable army of talent. If the current rumor concerning Drake's retirement from the stage is true, this revue can stand as a fitting tribute to one of the most skilled producers and organizers on the stage.
Jackie Mabley and String Beans
Price are the chief fun-makers of
the show, assisted by Henry
Drake, Jimmie Baskette, Sambo Reid
and Willie Drake. The chorus is
just pretty and well-dressed. These
are the hardest working chorus girls
in the show business and they make
a hit with every audience—colored
as well as white. A trio composed of
Jessie Croyer, Arthur Noble and
hope Black scored in their song and
dance number. The Pickantany Four,
named in every city from Maine to
Florida, were also well received.
Estelle Edwards and May Belle lead
the chorus.
Particular mention must be made of Jackie Mabley. This young woman is one of the ablest performers on the stage. Her humor is irresistible. For fully ten minutes she had the audience rocking with laughter. She sings and she talks and she dances in a manner which cannot be described, but which makes the audience just go wild. Will Marion Cooke told the reviewer some time ago that he regarded Jackie Mabley as one of the best conditions of all times—white or colored—and that at least one noted producer of successful plays will soon engage her. Drake's famous band repeated the success which it meets all over the country. It played several "request" numbers to the unbounded delight of the audience.
The feature ploture for the week is "Camille," starring Norma Talmage. "Camille" is adapted from one of the world's most famous novels. "The Lady of the Camillas."
Both stage and screen show at the Lafayette Theatre this week are of the highest calibre and another illustration of why the Lafayette enjoys the reputation all over the country, bringing one of the finest of theatres.
Lincoln Theatre Offers "Beau Geste" This Week
The French Foreign Legion, the endless, gorgeous, giant sand dunes of the Sahara, a famous missing sapphire, hundreds of desert warriors sweeping on horseback to attack a lonely fort manned by forty men, practically all in mutiny—there you have just a glimpse of the romance and thrills contained in *Bou Geste*, which comes to the Lincoln Theatre Thursday.
No greater effort was ever put into making of a motion picture. This romantic, thrilling screen mystery story, adapted from one of the most popular novels in years, represents a fierce undertaking than even "The To Commandments," which was also produced by Paramount. Donald Colman, Alice Joyce, Noah Berry, Mary Brian, Neil Hampton, William Powell, Norman Trevor, Victor McLaglan and Ralph Rubin are featured, but there are traces of others nearly as promi-
"Blean Geste" is a mystery story of the Foreign Legion on the deserts of Africa that will tighten your skin with excitement. It tells of three young Englishmen who disappear from home after a famous adventure, "The Blue Water," belonging to their aunt, is stolen. All this leads to a remote fort on the Sahara and the ever feared attack of an Arab host.

A
"Flaming Follies At the Alhambra
House Next Week
"Flaming Follies" at the New Alhambra proves itself one of the liveliest and funniest of the musical comedy revues of the season.
The playlet "Satan's Day Off" has a unique and appropriate幕景 background. The demonized messie of the informs is played by Al F. Wan. He temporarily places in charge a new arrival, impersonated by the versatile Emmett Anthony. Imps attend the new ruler, who institutes laughable reforms, and finally rescues from the tortures a beautiful woman whom Satan has persecuted.
Another comedietta deals with a capricious wife, played by Lenn Wilson, who conceals a visitor, who in reality is Mantan, the California nut. Her husband returning unexpectedly, she has the intruder pose in a gilt frame as "Harry' Wills' Picture," which is the title of the sketch. The results are tremendously laughable.
Slim Henderson is the central figure in another playlet, in which Rose Henderson and George W. Cooper are also prominent. The Alambra girls appear as the "playful little red devils" in "Satan's Day OFF" and in another appearance perform a spirited march as trained nurses. A vocal trio and various solos and other numbers, as well as dances, enliven the proceedings to the delight of the audience. Lena Wilson made a special hit leading the girls in the number "Ain't It a Grand and Glorious Feeling?" Beginning The Play for the balance of the week, the photoplay feature will be Buddy Roosevelt in "The Obliging Buckaroo." There will also be the Mack Sennett comedy, "Hubby's Quiet Little Game," and as always, the Pathe News of the World on the first day of issue.
The revue to open Monday will be of wild western flavor, entitled "Rodeo Girls." This is the time of year that the cowboys and cowgirls go to the cities for their exhibitions of foats of the plains. This should furnish an exciting and amusing theme for a comedy revue. It is predicted that the Alhambra will offer a unique entertainment in "Rodeo Girls," with various now faces in the large cast.
"Cat and Canary" to Amuse Lovers of Mystery Here
Everyone who has taken an interest in attempting to solve mysteries is promised the thrill of a lifetime when "The Cat and the Canary" opens as the feature attraction at the Douglas Theatre the week of Saturday, Oct. 29, 20 and 31. "The Cat and the Canary," a "Universal production with an all-star cast headed by Laura La Plante, is said by those who have seen its previews to be by far the most mysterious mystery ever filmed. Six people, three women and three men, go with an attorney to a supposed haunted house to hear the reading of a will. The attorney is murdered—each of the six persons might have done the killing. Which one of them was it—if any—is undiscoverable until the final scene.
"The Cat and the Canary" is a screen adaptation of the great stage success of the same name by John Willard. It was directed by Paul Lenk, perhaps the most famous of a score of foreign directors who have come to this country in the past two years.
In addition to Miss La Plante, the cast embraces some of the best-known names of filmdom, including among many others: Arthur Edmund, Carew, Forrest Stanley, Craigleton Hale, Gertrude Astor, George Slegmann, Flora Finch,

An all-star cast of exceptional merit supports Richard Barthelmess in "The Drop Kick." First National's production of Katharine Brush's story of college football life which comes to the Roosevelt Theatre next Saturday, Sunday and Monday. Playing opposite the star is Barbara Kent, a Wampas baby star, who has developed into a young lady of high promise. An important role is played by Alberta Vaughn, who was a star in her own right in several films. Dorothy Revier, dark, exotic villainess, enacts the role of Brad Hathaway's wife, while Brad is played by Eugene Strong—who was starred in several pictures several years ago.
Hedda Hopper enacts the role of Barthelmess' mother and Barbara's mother is played by Mayme Kelso. James Bradbury, who appeared with the star in "Classmates," has the role of "Bones" Allen, and Brooks Benedict, who was with Barthelmess in "Ranson's Folly," does the part of Ed. Pemberton. The part of the dean of Shoreham College, the locale of the story, is played by George Pearce.
Ray Rockett produced the picture, and it was directed by Millard Webb. Camera work was done under the chieftainship of Arthur Edeson and Dick Hyland, famous Stanford football star, acted as technical adviser. Some of the most thrilling football scenes ever photographed are to be viewed in this latest Barthelmess feature.

Whitney-Tutt Show Pleased
Many Pleasing Features With "Desires," Which Played Lincoln Theatre "Desires of 1925" played the Lincoln Theatre last week and proved one of the most desirable revues of the season.
Whitney and Tutt, musical comedy veterans, wrote and staged the piece. Clarence Nance, the boy from Gotham, acted as a comedy burlesque master of ceremonies, making wise cracks throughout the evening. Stewart Hampden, also under cork, did fine work in the role of second comedian. Alonzo Fenderson, late of Harlem revues and Broadway, maintained his high callibre as character man.
The Three Melody Malda call for special mention in their unique singing of songs in character, thus combining acting with melody. They are Mable Ridley, Teresa West and Ida Brown.
Both Miss Ridley and Miss Brown are of charming, magnetic personality and their solo numbers went over very pleasingly. Miss West, the lady of voluptuous form, was most intriguing in her dancing.
Charles White and Reginald York, dancing boys, did odd steps nicely to too bad tunes. The chorus of chickens, all spring, pranced pretty past the footlights. Salem Tutt Whitney and J. Homer Tutt, an inseparable pair, plan to come back stronger than ever, following the illness of the veteran comedian, who was not expected to live a year ago. J. Homer Tutt remains the unrivalled Bean Brummel of colored musical comedy in America.

Negro Art Theatre Presents First Bill at the Library
The New Negro Art Theatre, located in the West 135th Street Branch Library, opened its first bill with the Sekondi Players Monday night, presenting a lyric program which included an epic pantomime, "Congo," by Vachel Lindsay, and a one-act comedy, "He Said and She Said," by Alice Gorenberg. The entire program was enthusiastically received by the small audience, who applauded nearly their every gesture. Hemsley Winfield is the director. Josephine L. Heathman, lyric soprano, was the featured soloist of the evening and sang with unusual clarity of tone and with fine emotional shading. Miss Heathman was a student of Max Duzin at Carnegie Hall. She is now rehearsing with Florenz Ziegfeld's "Show Boat," which is to open soon on Broadway.
"Congo" was the most interesting number on the program, it being a primitive jungle scene of great beauty, and was realistically presented. Albert W. Patrick sang the chants of this scene. He Said and she Said" was admirably played by Jacob Adams, Mae Lee, Ardelle Dahney and Syll Bryant Poston, the latter two having had professional stage experience. Both Mrs. Dahney and Mrs. Poston gave a performance that was nearly letter-perfect, but Mrs. Poston displayed the greater poise. The jungle scenes and Miss Lee was top self-confidence, although both of them revealed genuine sincerity and potential ability. Robert L. Douglass read poems from Langston Hughes and Paul Lawrence Dunbar. Mao and Marion Lee, Olivia Moore and James E. Tennant, were royal vocal selections. Jaroline H. Winfield wrote a poem, and a quartette sang, with further Wilson, Thomas Seay, Marshall Brown and Arthur Crush.
Doris Bryant rendered a dance composition of very pleasing grace. Hupa Burke played Charlton's "Poeme Erotique." The same program will be repeated next Monday night and November 11, the appearance of Miss Heathman.

Madame Florence Cole-Talbert Returns After Three Years in Europe
Acclaimed in Opera House at Cosenza, Italy Where She Sang Difficult Role of "Aida Before Critical Audience
On a Marah evening this year in the old town of Cosenza, Italy, the opera house was crowded for a performance of "Aida." Upon the stage Radames, the young Egyptian captain, was going off to join the army in its campaign against the Ethiopians. Aida, the Ethiopian captive in love with Radames, was bidding him Godspeed. Radames disappeared and Aida turned to the audience, and from her lips burst that most tremendous of Verdi's arias, "Ritorna Vincitor!" Her voice soared and ank and soared again, till all the pent-up suffering of a race throbbed forth in the words "Nempre Soffir," ending with a one sob.
TEN
The audience rose as one person, lapping and shouting in their enthusiasm. The people of Cosenza one of the most critical audiences in critical art; with them there is no middle ground between angry hisses and fervid acclamations. But that night they forgot themselves and raved against the singer's reputation was made from that night on, and wherever she went in Italy she scored triumph after triumph.
That singer was Florence Cole-Talbert, the first Negro woman to make her mark in the exacting role of Aida. She is now in America for a short visit, having arrived October 18. Though she burst suddenly upon a dedicated taloy, her success was not the more accidental hit, even the Nolo Achieves that; even Saruso in his early years was told by teachers that he had no promise. Florence Cole-Talbert prepared herself for victory by years of severe and unremitting study; of toll that cannot be realized by one who has never tried it. It is harder to become a successful opera singer and it is to become a Nolo Achieves Student. She reaches the operatic goal one cannot speak too highly of her talent and force of will.
Florence Cole-Talbert was born in Detroit, the daughter of Thomas A. and Saddle Chandler Cole, both of whom were talented in music and literature. When she was a child the family moved to Los Angeles, where Florence began to study music. At her graduation from the high school, where she had studied ancient and modern languages, as well as the theory of music, sitting at commencement exercises. She continued her musical studies at the College of Music at the University of California, and in 1916 she was graduated at the Chicago Musical College with the highest honors of the class, receiving a diamond-set medal. Up to that time she had won most of her laurels at the piano, which she had begun to play at the age of six, advancing so rapidly that when she was sixteen she was chosen to accompany the famous Madame Azalea Haackley at a recital in Los Angeles, the school of musicians, seeing her vocal promise, urged her to concentrate on vintage culture.
She took their advice and studied with John B. Miller, Herman Daviles and Oscar Saenger, Eusebio Cuculdi, an Italian barbone, encouraged her to study Italian operatic roles and sang duets with her at several concerts. She spent five years in concert singing and became a great favorite in all parts of the United States. In 1918 she made her New York debut in Aeolian Hall and three years ago she sang at the Century Theatre. New Yorkers will remember her appearance for three seasons at the late Daisy Taplay's educational recitals at Rush Memorial Church, where her singing was eagerly looked forward to and enthusiastically attended. Two years ago she went to Rome, Italy, study with Delta Valeri at the Summer School for Americans. This school is at the historic Villa d'Este, which abounds in romantic traditions of the great d'Este family of the Renaissance and was a favorite retreat of the great composer Franz Liszt.
At this school Madame Talbert received the greatest applause of all the students and all the flowers came her way. The Italians could not get enough of this Negro woman who had mastered both their language and their music. After that came more study in dramatic action with Julian Quezada of Milan. Then came the big chance to sing the title role in "Aida" at the Teatro Comunale in Cosenza. Madame Talbert was called upon to hold her own in such renowned company as

Louigi Marletta, the tenor; Ugo Marrurano, the baritone; and Pina Minotti, the centralist. With them she sang in three operas on three successive nights and each night she was called before the curtain and loudly applauded.
The newspapers, the Fascista of Calabria and the Messagero of Rome, dwelt upon her beautiful voice and expressive acetic effects, prophesying wonderful success for her as an opera singer, for whom she is known that the word star is not used so carelessly in Italy as it is in America.
After her triumph at Cosenza Madame Talbert visited Rome, Naples, Florence, Venice and Milan, receiving ovation after ovation. She appeared also in Paris, Switzerland and London. Success had not gone to her head, for in Paris she stopped to study French repertoire with M. Picheran of the Opera Comique. After her present visit of a few months to this country for concert engagements she will return to Italy, where she holds a five-year contract with Signor Victor Delliers' theatrical agency, which is her sole representative for operatic singing in Europe. The Italian riting of Madame Talbert is indeed high. They pay her their greatest compliment when they say that she has an Italian folklore is a drama to be performed to such roles as Aida. Such voices, as all who attend our Metropolitan Opera House know, are generally more remarkable for power than for sweetness. But Madame Talbert possesses a voice which is a dramatic soprano, and yet is lyric and flexible.
The critics need no longer complain that Verdi made his greatest heroine black, forcing white singers to make themselves up for the role. Just as "Madame Butterfly" has its Japanese singer, Tamara Miki. Verdi was not included not only by her own race, but by the Italians, the race of the composer Verdi and the most critical operatic audience in the world.
Pastor of St. David's P. E.
Church Resigns Post
After serving as rector of St. David's P. E. Chapel, 384 East 160th street, for the past thirty-three years, the Rev. Edward George Clifton has resigned his charge, which will be pasted by Clarence Robinson, a layman, until a new pastor is appointed by Bishop Clifton. Dr. Clifton at St. David's was lauded by Suffragan Bishop Herbert T, Shipman in his farewell sermon at the church on Sunday morning. He spoke of how Dr. Clifton had expended every energy in building up the parish and in fulfilling his mission as a spiritual leader among parishioners. In a letter to the retiring pastor, Bishop Manning says, among other things: "You have given long and most joyful to your health now bulge you to give up your work. I know how greatly this will be regretted by the faithful people of St. David's Chapel and how much they will miss you."
The Rev. Dr. Clifton's wife, Mrs. E. G. Clifton, worked side by side with her husband, playing the organ, teaching in the Sunday school and in the industrial school. Previous to his pastorate at St. David's, Dr. Clifton served at Gravesend, Middletown, Newburgh, Baxtertown, the Little Zion Church on 117th street and other places.

Y.W.C.A. Opens $7,500 Campaign
Y.W.C.A. Opens $7,500 Campaign
"Must Pay Own Way," Says Mrs. E. P. Roberts
Today officially begins the annual budget campaign of the West 137th Street Branch of the Y. W. C. A. With $7,500 as the goal and a little over a week in which to raise it, "Y" leaders are asking Harlem residents to contribute generously. Of the $265,000 difference between the income of all departments and the amount necessary to operate the various Y. W. C. A. activities in New York City, this branch is asked to assume responsibility for $7,500 of it.
"A racial group must pay its own way if it is to develop," says Mrs. E. P. Roberts, 130th West 130th street, who is the colonel of the budget opportunity. "So, one other opportunity the Y. offers Harlem residents is to make an investment in racial self-respect. We are going out to get monetary contributions of all sizes, to help meet our 'budget difference.'"
Those assisting Mrs. Roberts in executive positions are: Mrs. Lola S. Kellar, Mrs. Eva T. Parks, Mrs. Susan Peyton Worthma, majors; Mrs. Elizabeth Michael, Mrs. Adah Thomas-Smith. Mme. Mire. Virginia E. Scott, Mrs. Minnie C. Pickens, Mrs. Ernest R. Alexander, Mrs. Wren-rouse, Mrs. H. H. Hilbert, Mrs. Corn Turner, Mrs. Etnah Rechon Routte and Mrs. Goldie Graves, captains.
This branch of the Y. W. C. A. boasts of following things: Over 500 girls, women and men were placed last year through the room registry service; thousands of persons received individual attention and service from the information desk; clubs are provided for girls all skill levels; girls are served in the education, ployment and physical training departments; an A-1 caterafer is conducted to suit the hours of those who have to go to business.
Mrs. Cecella Cababis Saunders is the general secretary of the branch.

Religious Leaders at Nazarene Church Say Negroes Show Progress
Prominent men paid tribute to the rapid strides made by colored people in the financial, educational and religious field during ceremonies held at the Nazarene Congregational Church, Grand avenue and Lefferts place, at the morning and evening services Sunday. The church, the pastor of which is the Rev. Dr. Henry Bush Proctor, is celebrating its establishment at the new location. The Rev. Frederick H. Gordon, secretary of the Brooklyn Federation of Churches; the Rev. Dr. Newell Dwight Hills, lately pastor of Plymouth Church; the Rev. Dr. S. Parkes Cadman, pastor of Central Congregational Church, and president of the Federal Council of Churches of Christ in America; the Rev. Dr. H. Potterton, pastor of the Universalist Church of Our Father, and former U. S. Senator William M. Caldar addressed large congregations. Both services were attended by colored and white people. Dr. Gordon extended the greetings of all the Protestant churches.
"It has been a wonderful year for colored people." Dr. Hills said. He said great strides had been made by colored people in finance, education and religion. At the evening services Dr. Cadman spoke on the necessity of outlawing cowardice and the need for power, discipline and love. He urged the need of religion, declaring that, although both the Greeks and Romans were mighty in the world many years ago, and had great statesmen and power, yet they did not have sufficient religion. Personally, he despised the slavey. He defined the necessity of warfare saying "that those who take the sword shall perish by the sword." He demoined the Ku Klux Klan, the so-called 100 per cent ... Americans and urged colored people to attain organization for their betterment.
Former Senator Calder pointed out that the Fourteenth and Fifteenth Amendments were being enforced more than ever and that the Negro was finding a place in the sun. "In practically every walk of life today the colored man is equal to the white man the black man and the unruly the young men and women to take an interest in church matters for the future of the church," of America, family life and all that is good lay in their hands.

Douglas, who represented the parent, won decisively over the firm of Caldic & Siegal before Justice Dumme at Special Term, Part II, of the Kings County Supreme Court last Monday. It appeared that Albert L. Sylvester of 224, Lexington avenue, had recently lost his life, and her relative, William, alleged had for years, pitcherally opposed to toward Sylvester, sought to take from him through court proceedings his overweight child.
Mrs. Louisie Glen, his sister-in-law, sought to show that he had been abusive to his wife, her sister, during her life with him, and on this basis to have the conclusion that he was not a fit person to have the custody of the child. But on cross-examination her testimony broke down when Mr. Douglas went deeply into the acts of prejudice and contempt which she is, alleged to have committed against the defendant over a long period of years. At the conclusion of the proceedings, Judge Dunnie denied Mrs. Jen's petition and gave the child

Ruth Whaley Creates a Stir
Woman Attorney Made 'Em Sit Up. and Take Notice in County Court
Miss Ruth Whalley appeared in Queens County Court last week to defend Clarence A. Williams of 136 West 137th street, Manhattan, charged with another man, Albert Hawkins, of 212 Edgecombe avenue, Manhattan, of stealing two saxophones from a store in Jamica. Detectives said Williams and Hawkins broke into the shop of Charles Vorback, 165-19 Jamaica avenue, Jamaica, on Sept. 13 and took two saxophones valued at about $150. They were arrested on Sept. 17 in Sobel's Pawn Shop, 145th street and Eighth avenue, Manhattan, when they attempted to redeem the musical instruments. A clerk in the pawn shop said the saxophones were pledged there on the day they were stolen.
Attorneys said Miss Whalley presented her case in a clear and thorough manner and was quick to grasp at every point which could be used in her foyer.
Williams said he was in his restaurant in Manhattan and Hawkins said he was in Atlantic City on the day of the robbery.
Inter-Racial Amity Meeting
Memorial to Abdul-Baha Is Planned by Pastor of Local Church
An inter-racial amity meeting, with a program including white and colored speakers, was held under the auspices of the New York Baha'is in the Nazarone Congregational Church, of which the Rev. Dr. Henry Hugh Proctor is pastor, on Grand avenue and Lefferts place, last Friday night.
The Nazarene Congregational Church had been placed at the disposal of the Baha'is in connection with a series of services to be held by local religious bodies which are co-operating with Dr. Proctor in the dedication of this new church and community center. Dr. Proctor has already announced his intention of devoting one room to a memorial of those publicity addresses in the United States during 1912 strongly emphasized the racial problem
The New York Baha'i planned this meeting as one of their public inter-racial amity conferences which will be held at regular intervals in cities throughout the United States and Canada. Such conferences were urged by Abdul-Baha in 1912, who at the time, uttered the public warning that unless justice and amity could be established between the white and colored races in America, the result would become the most serious menace in our national life.
The program consisted of addresses of "The Origin of Prejudice," Horace Holley; "The Re-ability of Youth to the World," by Miss Wandeyne Mathews, and "The Power of Baha'u'lah to Unify Mankind," by Mrs. Mary Hanford Ford, Mrs. Bishop H. Lewis presided. The conference was preceded by a dinner in the church. Both dinner and conference were open to the general public, a big attendance resulting.

BUILDER OFFERS BRICK HOUSES IN JAMAICA TO COLORED PEOPLE
Rising Tide of Color Creates Problem
The American brand of race prejudice reacts in many peculiar ways. Because of the advent of a few colored families in what was formerly an exclusive white neighborhood in the Richmond Hill section, one of Jamaica's best builders of brick houses is now offering ten very beautiful one-family, six-room brick houses, with one-car garage, to colored buyers. Those familiar with the type of houses generally built and sold to our people will appreciate the difference in these houses at once.
The price is only $8,500 and the down payment $750. They are in a section where sewers are already laid and the streets paved. All have parquet floors throughout, and the kitchen and bath are tiled. Nothing is missing that will contribute to the comfort of the owner.
These houses can be seen by going direct to the office of the builder, 145-02 Jamaica Ave. (Mr. Helm), Jamaica, or through the Homeseekers' Service Bureau, whose New York office is at 210 West 135th St. Daily auto tripe will be made direct from this office, and all information concerning them will be gladly given at any time. As a special inducement a ton of coal will be given with each house sold before Nov. 15th.

Judge Imposes Life Sentences Butler and Night Watchman Sent Away by County Judge Adel
Judge Imposes Life Sentences Butler and Night Watchman Sent Away by County Judge Adel
Two men were sentenced to life imprisonment by County Judge F. Adel in Long Island City last week. To Andrew Mazareck, 32, of 832 East 18th street, Manhattan, who had nine previous arrests and six convictions against him, the court delivered a scathing lecture. Mazareck on June 1, 1926, took $7,000 worth of jewelry from Thomas F. Mazareck of 30-04 Boulevard, Belle Isle, who held Mazareck as a butter, although he knew Mazareck's prison record.
"You are the lowest type of man I know of," said Judge Adel. "Your employee took you in, knowing your record, but he believed that a man of your callibre could be reformed and take his former role in society. There is nothing much I can say to you that would express my feeling. I sentence you to serve the remainder of your life in Sing Sing prison."
Floyd L. Thomas, 36, of 5436
7th avenue, Astoria, a night watchman,
was the other man who received
a life sentence. He stole furs
at $6,500 from his employer.
Hannah "because he didn't keep

"Metric System"
Had Some Merit
Attorney Morton Wins Discharge of Client Held for "Banking"
With 'number' bankers and players getting sentences with great frequency lately, Lazarus Murry, $4, who operates a tire repair shop at 286 Putnam avenue, can count himself very lucky, for he was discharged last week when he appeared in the Court of Special Sessions on the charge of operating a "pol诈" or "number" game. He was represented by Attorney Franklin W. Morton.
Murry, who caused comfortable mirth in court on Sept. 14 when he appeared before Magistrate Hirschfeld in the Flatbush Court by saying that the numbers alleged to have been found on him by the officers were numbers that represented his metric system of measuring and price fixing, was arrested by Paulsdman August Rant of the Elevenshield Division, white, who claimed that Murry had paid a man a price who appeared in his shop with three "suspicious looking" numbers in his possession. Magistrate Hirschfeld did not take kindly to the metric system explanation and held Murry, in $500 ball "until the District Attorney finds out enough about metric measurement and other matters pertaining to your business."
The first number that Murry was confronted with was 196. He claimed that it meant one point 85 and was the metric measurement of the inner tube of a balloon tire. The next number was 519.
That's five gallons of gas at 19.8 ounces a gallon," Murry proudly stated.
"Fine," the Magistrate went on. "Now how about 015?"
"That's a No. 9 patch at 15 gents," Lazarus replied.
"Very good." Masistrate Hirschfield said, "but I don't believe you, Lazarus."
In the Court of Special Sessions, Attorney Morton made no attempt to deceive the court, and when one of his witnesses was told to tell the truth about the figures, replied that they looked like polley slips. This frank admission课ed to please the three judges, and when Attorney Morton stated that his client may have played the numbers, but was not what was known as a "banker," his motion to dismiss the complaint was granted.

A Fraternal Suggestion
A Contribution to the November Messenger Magazine by the Brilliant Young Satirist and Investigator.
By GEORGE 8. 8CHUYLER
THE Americano, living amidst the dullness and drawnness of a democracy and the machine age, thirsts for color and excitement. Pittsburgh Plus, Service and E Pluribus Unum, are no bespalded feudal noon; the thoroughfaces on gally caperated streets and followed by smartly unified men, and the small of small dimensions craves these appendedages of monarchy even in a real world. The beauty in fire feathers is the desire of all but the intelligent minority, and not the less among those entertaining this desire
As a solution to this problem, we have had with us for some time that we have a large number of custodians, janitors, broklayer, waiter, street sweeper or counterman can satisfy his cravings by paying down a small initial fee or by paying a large fee of a fraternal induction, and thus gaining the privilege to cavort in a uniform that would turn an Italian admiral into a French admiral, prince down the streets in their helmets and breastplates, multi-colored capes, patent leather boots, prodigious shoes, and sturdy ostrich feathers. What a pleasure for the longsherman or tunnel builder or dishwasher's helper to return home from the job, and for his field marshal's uniform and such doubly boome Right Honorable Grand director of Cuckolds, Supreme Grand director of Boxes or Holder of the Royal Forehead.)
It is no wonder, with all of their inroads, that the fraternal orders have attained huge memberships and increased in power. Howey ledging house. There seems to be understanding with the blindishmouts of a brass hand. Even Gavry with his moronic schemes was able to get stalwart brass hand. We have reconfident African Legion. We have free organization now named after almost all of the prophets of the Bible. If the number of organizations continues to grow on the insect world, if indeed one heat way hasn't already been made in that way hasn't already been made in that way daughters of this, that and the other, the kingdoms of God knows who and what
It soon passes strange, however, the notion of the shrewd organizers of the Jacksies, the members of the starting a society named after the plumbing and dependable jackets. Certainly, the fraternal organization could be invented than The Ancient and Honorable Order of Jackets, nor could any number of other societies that would lock to it in large numbers. This society could have such titles for uniforms as the Imperial Supreme jacket, the Imperial Royal Crown jacket, the Imperial Haunch of the Jacksies, etc. As a business prop,

SPECIAL ARTICLES
WHERE you buy your medicines, and how your prescriptions are filled, are very important matters in the keeping of your health, and in prompt relief and cure if you are sick. Physicians prescribe certain drugs, with positive actions and definite doses. This is done to bring about certain actions in the various organs of the body, such as the reducing of the pulse rate, if it is too high; the reduction of fever, if it is excessive; stimulation of the kidneys, if their physiological actions are reduced and renal poisons are being retained within the body; stimulation of the liver cells to cause a better intestinal digestion.
Medicine in many ways is a positive science. The doctor is relying on a definite action of a medicine to change your symptoms of pain, ache, tenderness, fever, chills, weakness and loss of sleep into a feeling of comfort and well-being of the drugist, who is supposed to know what he is doing and who is honest enough to fill the prescription according to the dose, directions, kind of drug, and amount prescribed. Your health and the doctor's reputation as an efficient attendant depend upon the proper preparation of the prescription by the drugist. In Harlem many drugists are not honest or qualified in their compounding of these prescriptions. They substitute inferior medicines, or they do not give the prescribed amount of drug. They, in this manner, save money in the final cost of prepared prescription. But they return or prevent the prescription because it is even worse than being dishonest, but such is the condition new prevailing in Harlem.
Some people seem to think that physicians get a percentage from certain drug stores. This is not so. It is not the prevailing custom in Harlem. Physicians know the

THE foremost living poet and novelist of the Dominican Republic is Fabio Fiallo. He is a writer who has kept close to true literature and who has developed the literary language of his country by giving it more grace, beauty and flexibility. Fiallo was born in 1868 in Santo Domingo City, Republic of Dominica, West Indies. He received his education in the schools there. He was for a time military governor of the capital (Vega), civil and military governor of Santo Domingo City, and general in the army. He was minister to Cuba, consul general in New York and Hamburg. For some time Senior Fiallo has been managing editor of the following newspapers: La Bandera Libre, La Campana and Las Noticias.
Fabio Fallo stands out today as the most educated "poet, of his people." His poems are always fresh, sublime and clear cut and well suited. What he writes is always well done. His versification is very bold and vigorous, and his rhythm is often melodious beyond any other writer of equal merit and strength. His sonnets, especially when he forgets himself, are among the loftiest in the Spanish language. They are all distinguished by an earnestness of purpose and energy of style. He paints with his poems the human heart-folding by a word or an epithet its innest feelings or most thoughtful thoughts. He is a poetical mind laboring in poetry. He is a true poet.
He has written many beautiful poems. He has not sung only a tender dity or two, then shut his lips to listen to the applause they bring, but has written much sometimes softer and less touchingly, and always more beautifully. He excels in short and neat things; yet he has poured out his fancy and his feelings through the evolutions of a continuous narrative and an intricate story. The flow of his language is remarkable; his fancy is ever ready, and is never tired. His poetry is like one of the rivers of his country—a lovely lagoon. The traditions of his Spanish parents have been moderately and uniquely used by the poet in both his prose and lyrical writings. As a poet, he is a reasoner and a reasoner who is not to be taken against, who knows when to be tender with love—I should say, tender as love.
Here is a short poem which is worthy of the noblest hard that ever wrote. It is called "Lily and Rose":
They spoke of the grace of the flowers,
And each had a choice of his
Some of them praised the roses,
And some would the lilies enthrone.
And I thought of your cheek, beloved,
Which the color of youth discloses,
I thought of that evening kisses—
And then I was all for the roses!
Dut remembering your pale forehead,
Thanermine more pure and more fair;
Like butterflies nests your
honest, well-equipped and efficient druggist and, because of this, direct their patients to a particular drug store. This is protection both to the physicians and the patients. Ignorance is rampant in Harlem among many thousands of us. We know that the police tell us. He is never wrong and always honest; this is especially so in this matter of prescription filling. As a physician and knowing Harlem as I do, I am stating it mildly when I say that more than half of the white druggists in Harlem are either dishonest or incident with their Negro customers.
To remedy this condition, and thus to help adequately to treat any sickness, I suggest that Negroes in our community take their prescriptions to the ten or twelve Negro drug stores in Harlem. Everyone of them will fill your prescriptions honestly and efficiently. They have to. Negro physicians in their last Medical Society meeting discussed this matter very thoroughly and have investigated all the Negro drug stores relative to standard of drugs, the honesty of the druggist and efficiency in training.

I could go on quoting him forever, but the space at disposal will only admit of a few short notes regarding his prose compositions. When Flallo had fixed his character as a poet, and the public looked only for poetical productions from him, he suddenly came forth as a prose writer, and with still added proofs of intellectual origin. His prose stories have the leading characteristics of his poetry. Their theme is love, and they demonstrate that love is fraught with difficulties, and there are other qualities manifested in the tales. The prose pages is for him a wider tableau on which he can, with more freedom and ampler display, record his various imaginations. His volumes abound with proofs of a shrewd observation of society, with masterly sketches of character and the most beautiful snatches of scenery. But surprise and delight more than all are the sound and true estimates of humanity and the honest holdiness with which his opinions are expressed. The clear perception of the fearful social condition of his country, and the ferocity of the memory of his scattered through his writings, especially the fast, do honor to his heart. His writings require to be yet more truly appreciated in this country.
He is the author of: "Primavora Sentimenta" (verse); "Cuentos Fragiles" (prose); "Cantaba el Ruizcanor" (verse); "Las Canciones del Odio" (verse); "Filos y Necrosot" (essays); "Cuentos Galantes" (verse); "Nuevas Poemas" (verse); "Vida Politica" (political writing); and "Canciones de la Tarde."
Man Swallows Bug; Bitten to Death
WORCESTER. Mass., Oct., 24. Stung fatally by a bug which he swallowed while driving his automobile, Dr. R. H. McKinnon, white dentist, was the victim of one of the strangest deaths ever recorded. Within a few hours after being bitten inside his throat, Dr. McKinnon was found to be the victim of a violent infection, accompanied by high fever. Specialists were unable to save his life.

The Congo Museum Near Brussels
Houses Most Complete African Exhibit in Existence
TERVUEREN.
THE tourist with a fondness for museums, but who, after seeing dozens and dozens of them all so much alike that he has decided to "go slow" on them when he gets to another city, will be delighted to reach this beautiful suburb of Brussels, for here he will find one that is different, one that straight-way transports him to another clime—the famous Congo Museum.
This museum, too, has the added advantage of being itself in a large park of exceeding natural and artificial beauty. It looks out on a series of gardens in bloom, bordered with trees clipped in many shapes, and two artificial lakes with a rich background of forest—a delightful vista, indeed.
The Congo Museum, which has, perhaps, the most complete collection of African objects in existence, is the work of King Leopold. The congo atroctly fame. Leopold, it is recalled, was at one time absolute master of the Congo Free State, a region as large as all Europe, with Russia left out.
How Leopold, ruler of the smallest country in Europe, came to acquire this vast domain is interesting. While Duke of Brabant, he visited Africa and was so impressed with it that his country ought also to leave a continent that he presented to Parliament a Grecian stone on which he had written: "Belgium needs colonies." Soon after that he called a Geographical Congress to which came representatives of the leading European Kingdom, he said, was to suppress the trade in Central Africa, which was then being actively pursued by the Portuguese and the Arabs. The final result of this conference was that Leopold was made head of a society known as the Suppression Trade and the Opening of Central Africa. The last half of this title is significant.
It was about this time that he heard of Henry M. Stanley and, backing him with his private funds, Leopold sent him into the Congo, where Stanley established trading posts. Another conference of the Powers, and Leopold, partly because he was the man on the spot and partly because of the rivalry of England and Germany, was made a present of this vast territory in the United States, by the way, was the first to recognize the new state as one of the nations of the world.
It appears that the new rule was beneficial at first. The slave hunters were driven out and the natives established in their rights. But as the territory was gradually opened and its vast natural wealth was exploited, the natives' treasury and rubber—companies were formed for its exploitation, and Leopold issued a decree which practically took away all the land from the natives and made them serfs. How these agents of Leopold created conditions, beside which the cruelty of the Portuguese master was Purandise, is too much a matter of history to be repeated here.
A large part of the wealth wring from the Congo natives was used by Leopold in beautifying his palaces and in building monuments and museums in Brussels. Among these are the Chiquenante Museo de la Antigua Antillean Fifteenth anniversary of Belgian Independence, and the Arch of Triumph, two of the most imposing structures in Europe. A large part of his Congo revenues also went to the support of his mistresses, but that is another story. How Leopold was finally forced to give up the Congo by pressure within the Congo, and to give up revenue, is also another story. It might be said in passing, too, that the present King of the Belgians

Are You Killing Him With Kindness?
It's a fact, girls, and an annoying one, too. Men can't stand good treatment! And the sad part of it is that every woman wants to do all the little kindnesses possible for the man she loves. She wants to be attentive to him. She wants to be sweetheart, mother, sister and pal.
But the man simply can't stand it! He begins to take things for granted. He becomes bored—and, added, he'll begin looking around for some dame whom he'll have to chase after.
Now, for pity sakes, don't think that Eggsy Ann is advising you to get rough and resort to "cavewoman" methods. It doesn't pay

you will be struck by this fine above all others: namely, the black man has been to along exceedingly well without the aid of the white man, and he never needed him. From the product mentioned above the Negro constructed every imaginable article for his daily comfort, and that was down centuries before the Earliest European settlers in the Americas, the things are, beds, beds, cushions
A short walk through the first room of this large museum and you are immediately struck by the enormous wealth that was handed to Leopold by the Great Powers, largely through leasons of one another. Palm nuts, palm oil in all its grades, cocoanus, peanuts, peaches, peacoat, bunnas, cocoa, coconut, nuts, nuts, natives to grow them; jute, hemp, ranule and other fibres; rice plants as tall as a man; millet, corn, cassava; coffee, huge sweet potatoes, avocado trees, plantains; vanilla beans, peas, chocolate, breadfruit, corn; fruits, as pataws, guavas, sour-sops, sweet-sops, cashews, granadillas in abundance.
One room is devoted entirely to the rubber industry; in another are tusks of ivory the height of a giant, while in one beautiful spacious room the center of the large house Leopold carved entirely out of ivory, encircled by other busts and images of ivory.
In another room are the dyewoods and building woods, mahogany, chony, cedar; also gold, copper, coal, iron, radium ore, diamonds, marble, mica. In still another are bliss of many varieties, the oldest of which has a beak shaped like a wooden shoe; apes, giraffes, buffaloes, wild bears. In snort, this section is a region of the vastest wealth imaginable.
Much space is devoted to the ethnology of the native, and this is, perhaps, the most interesting part of the exhibit. As you wander through this part of the building seeing the native handwork to waste that much energy on any man.
You'll notice that the girl who is unconcerned, the girl who can make herself interested in many, the girl who lets the boys do the ringing and the writing, is the girl who is in demand.
No, she is not proud or cold.
She is delightfully indifferent and she's far ahead of her anxious little sister who dreams about him all day, writes him little notes, calls him up just to hear his voice and begs him to take her out. It takes him a hard to control our desires, but if we keep in mind that we'll save ourselves many future heartaches and pain it will help us a whole lot.
Dear Egypy Am:
I have been going with a fellow for a year and I find that I care for him quite a bit. He also seems to be in love with me, but we can't seem to get along. He expects too much of me.
He has asked me several times to have a difficult conversation with him and have refused. I have what he calls an old-fashioned idea
Dear Egyptsy Ann:
you will be struck by this fact above all others, namely: the black man has been able to get along exceedingly well without the aid of the white man, and he never needed him. From the products of the black man, the big groove constructed every imaginable for his daily comfort, and that was done centuries before the European came on the scene. Some of the things are: beds, pots, chairs, hammocks, wooden chairs, toothpick, spoons, forks, cloth; leather of crocodile, lizard, snake, buffalo, pig; coffers, ointment boxes, pillows, pillows, pillows, smothing, by the way, is said by many leading ethnologists to have come from Africa.
As to musical instruments, there seems to be no end to their number and variety; for dancing there are tambours twice the height of the average man; drums at least ten feet long, probably used for sending messages; trumpets of carved elephant tusks; hollowed wood for the can-ean; mandolins, wood for the polished ones; dancing-bells for witch-doctors; zitheres, metal songs of many kinds, and strange musical instruments made of the inflated skins of rat-bats.
And this fact must also be particularly noted: no two of any of the above-mentioned objects are alike. Every one has been done by hand, and the maker has carved his personality into it, producing in many instances a work of art that is not only exquisite, but original. For instance, there is the bow of a violin, whose lower end, instead of terminating as European ones, usually do. has a neck made to stand. The top of a mandolin has carved on it a female figure. As to the carved tusks, the bronzes and the walking sticks of the chiefs, it will be really amusing to hear again that old, old story that the Negro is but an imitator of the Nordic. And so it is, too, with the spears, assagels, arrows, culvers and oth-

UNCERTAIN.

If I had a sister I'd most assuredly advise her to get down on her knees and thank God that He had saved her thus far from such a low person.
You are not old-fashioned. You are virtuous, and far too good for this man. He doesn't mean you any good. If he did, he wouldn't insist that you do anything against your principles and he certainly wouldn't fault you by telling of his relationships with others.

or instruments of death—each is a work of art having a purpose in addition to its original one, namely, beauty. The war masks, no two of which are alike, are terrifying imaginations—Edgar Allan Poe in wood and paint.

Impressionistic! Is it any wonder that many European ar-

lists, growing barren and jaded from centuries of convention, are now being by a study of this primitive art?
In the face of all this a certain statue in one of the halls must be noted. It is that of a Negro, standing forlorn and hopeless, an attitude to be represented to represent the native "before the coming of Belgian civilization."
In addition to the terrific price he has already paid, what does the coming or civilization mean to the native? It means that all his individualism, which found expression in this beautiful art, will be extinguished, his articles of daily use will be stamped out for him by machinery. Like Navajo blankets, they will be made in Germany or Japan and sent to him. He will exchange his primitive religion for a capitalistic one; in place of his present diseases he will have some sympathetic civilization connection; in time he may even learn to bleach his skin and straighten his hair, and broadly will grow to feel that that civilization of which he is now a part is the best of all possible states.
Originality, as was said, is the keynote of all this art. Here is the bellows of a furnace made out of the bladder of some huge animal. Not so bad, but when one sees a bladder being used on the latest style of medical instrument for stinging either. The Negro, too, has a bladder that he has been one is struck by the originality, in place of the nightshirt and the nightcap of the Norlide brother, the Leopard Slayer wears a leopard robe and cap with two slits for the eyes; in place of hemp and torch, he wears on the ends of his fingers fifth-sharped knives with which he crawls on his sleeping victim, strikes him in the jugular vein and lacerates him, just as a dog does, thus masking his crime. Yes, as was said, one leaves this rich museum with the feeling that he did not need the white man, but that it was the white man who needed him and what he has.
He was competent to himself.
Now his culture is being destroyed.
Soon all that will be left of it will be in the museums, and for a long time to come he will be dependent on the overlord of industrialism, just as the bleached remnant of his brothers in the New World.

A Key to Culture
By LEOLA LILLARD
Introductions
"THE beginning is half the battle." In the first instant of a greeting between two people, the ground upon which they meet should be indicated. Cordiality, reserve, distrust, confidence, caution, condescension, deference—whatever the real or the assumed attitude may be—should be shown unmistakably when eyes meet and heads bend in the ceremony of a greeting.
One of the most questions of the day is "When is it proper to introduce people to each other?" Strict etiquette forbids casual social introductions, or the introducing of any two people at any time without the consent of both parties. It is argued that people who meet in a drawing room may engage in conversation if they are not least hesitant. They should understand that this interchange involves no acquaintances beyond the present occasion.
By this arrangement an awkward silence is averted, and it certainly seems as if the chief argument in favor of "introducing people" is met. With the "root" as their transient introduction, they are perfectly at ease without personal introductions. Then they all together the most sensible and agreeable solution of the question, but many social assemblies demonstrate that a large number of people are yet waiting to be introduced. And they often resent this ceremony being neglected. It should be understood that anyone is at liberty to speak to a fellow-guest without an introduction. This does not necessarily warrant an audience claim of being present. If, in the case of this prompt chat, mutual interest is awakened, either one may later seek an introduction in due form through some common friend.
When introductions are made, gentlemen should be presented to ladies, younger people to older, etc. The formula for introductions may be abbreviated to a mere announcement, e.g., "Mrs. Smith-Mrs. Brown" the pause and inflection filling the omission of words. Upon the tone
Never Trouble Trouble
TO my mind there comes a motto
Which to many may be new,
And it runs like this, my children,
Whatsoever you may do
"You must never trouble trouble
Before trouble troubles you!"
If your friends should prove disloyal,
If they many be or few,
If your enemies be legion,
If in vengeance they pursue,
Even then don't "trouble trouble
Before trouble troubles you!"
If you'd drive away all sorrow,
Did unhappiness adieu,
If you'd make your own cross
lighter,
Give your clouds a brighter hue,
Do not ever "trouble trouble
Before trouble troubles you!"
Now, give heed unto this warning, for you'll find it always true. Whether you be wise or foolish, Whether Gentle or whether Jew, it's best not to "trouble trouble Before trouble troubles you!" —R. A. Adams.
When December Marries May THIS expression is generally used in reference to the mating of a young woman with a man many years her senior, which, in this mercenary age, is becoming more and more frequent and more and more disastrous.
Sometimes there is a real measure of affection on the part of young women who take this serious and dangerous step, but in the majority of cases consideration has been given to convenience, expediency, if not actual financial profit.
"I wanted a home." "He could take good care of me." "He has lots of money and promised me plenty of nice things and a good time." These are some of the expressions used by young women exhilaratory of their actions in unitary schools. "Most men want are so far in advance of them in air. As the frigid air of winter will chill the tender blossoms of spring, so, generally, the stern nature and austere mien of an aged husband will chill the buoyant splendid of a young wife. This is almost invariably true because few men will ever be able to sympathize with the natural exuberance and the character of lies of a young wife—and few will ever make an effort to understand and sympathize.
For the most part such a husband will require, and insistently demand, that the young wife shall conform to his standard, whether it be right or wrong, wise or foolish. In such cases, in order to have peace, the young wife must bury her joy, stupefy her spirits, submerge her individuality and become merely the echo of her lord.
The aged husband of a young
and manner depend the courtesy of the introduction so barren of phrasing. A formal presentation is made in this form: "Mrs Smith, allow me to present Mrs Brown." Tact suggests that a hostess shall avoid bringing uncongenial people together. But if this unfortunately happens, through ignorance or thoughtlessness on the part of the hostess, the guest should not allow anyone, not even the hostess herself, to discover the mistake. The same rule which allows perfect strangers to be greeted social for an hour and then part will grant, certainly will grant to enemies a similar privilege. The woman who consciously hides her personal animosities rather than mar the harmony of the social world is doing her part to keep the world in tune.
The offer of the social right hand of fellowship is a tacit recognition of equality. Hand-shaking is said to be an American habit. It should be a mode of expressing warmth and loyalty of friendship. However, it is employed indiscriminately and bestowed with equal alacacy on lifelong friends and recent acquaintances. Fearful and sensitive people rather conservative in hand-shaking, the quagmire allows considerable, fastidious proper and graceful, but not required introduced. With certain exceptions, as a host and hostess shaking hands with a guest, etc., it is polite to shake hands heartily if a hand is cordially extended, or to retrain from proffering the hand when reserve is evident in the manner of the other person.
wife is almost certain to be jealous and fearful that his wife's attention may be diverted or least divided; he is crude and tactless in dealing with real or imaginary disloyalty of this kind. Instead of trying to hold his wife's hands, he is cruel and by means of kindness and tenderness, he usually is hard, demanding and unreasonable, and does more harm than good. Generally, as a man advances in age he becomes untidy in dress and in general appearance, yet he expects his young wife to be loyal and remain near him despite his repulsiveness. If she is 25 and he is 35, and just in her prime he is 65 and amid the declining period—IF HE IS NOT ALREADY DECLINED!
There have been, there are and there will be exceptions to the rule herein discussed, but the young woman who is sought as the mate of a man far her senior should give the matter her most serious consideration, for few, very few of such marriages are productive of happiness.

Nowadays, though, we don't have the troublesome task of gathering the sage and the musy sugar at home.

It is very popular because nobody can discover it has been applied. Simply moisten your comb or a soft brush with a little of the syrup and take one small strand at a time; by morning the gray hair disappears, but what delights the ladies with Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Compound is that besides beautifully darkening the hair with the syrup, you can dress: that soft lustre and appearance of abundance which is so attractive.

Decision Favors Deputy Diagne
Had Been Accused of Defer amation by Former Governor of Senegal
PARIS, 10 — (By Mail) — A case that has caused considerable stir here in social and governmental circles involves M. Blaise Diagne, president of France's colonial commission. Mr. Diagne was accused by M. Pierre Tallier, white, former governor-in-chief of Senegal, of defamation. The case came before the Sefa Assizes last week.
M. Tallier's charge is that the Negro deputy accused of extorting a pretender is affiliated in "Cigolian France," March 5 of this year. Defended by Matre Delmont, Negro deputy from Martineau, deputy deputy, from Martineau, acquitted, but he was so able to make his accusations that the government counsel for the defense in demanding the acquittal of the accused.
The article from "Colonial France" as read in court charges that M. Tallerie took advantage of his position to extort money from the republic by sending her to Dubourg in connect with a mosque that was to be butt. The mosque in question was to cost five million francs. At the time of the signing of the contract Governor-General Tallerie demanded for the francs then from annually, along with other expenses and advantages.

Mr. Thomas terms the order "an unprecedented backdown on this great issue; and by the most stubborn man in the Cabinet. All Negro Washington is accusing the victory."
As a step in the court fight to prevent extradition of Edward Glass from California to Oklahoma, the association has had an investigator in Sapulpa, Oklahoma, procuring evidence as to whether Glass would be fair trial. Returned to Oklahoma, the evidence is being forwarded for use before the courts in California.
Following the kidnapping, by a Georgia Sheriff, of Samuel Kennedy, whose extradition to Georgia was being contested in the courts of the Willett branch has met and paused resolutions committing itself to commence proceedings against the Sheriff of Vigo County for alleged connivance with the Georgia Sheriff in kidnapping Kennedy.
The vigorous fight made by the association upon the antinternarriage laws proposed in Northern states, all of which were defeated, has goaded the Ku Klux Klan into printing for national distribution a circular viciously attacking the N.

CARR—in memory of our beloved son, James L. Carr Jr., who passed into eternal rest October 27, 1826.
I cannot say and I will not say
That he is dead. He is just away.
With a cheery smile and a wave of hand.
He has wandered into an unknown land.
Think of him faring on, as dear
In the love of there as the love of
Think of him still as the same. I say
He is not dead; he is just away.

the poisons which accumulate
when the organs do not act

"I always give Black-Draught to the children for
colds (when a laxative is
needed). It is fine for that.
My trouble is chiefly constipation which is always ac-

sides. I think Black-Draught is the quickest and best relief
for this."

OWN YOUR OWN HOME
Why pay high rents when you can buy beautiful one and two-family brick houses in Corona and Jamaica, near transportation facilities, and near schools and churches? These houses have steam heat, electricity, parquet floors, tile baths and kitchens, and one or two-car garages. A one-family house can be bought with as low as $500 cash and a monthly payment of $33. The two-family can be bought with $1000 cash and $50 monthly payment. A ton of coal will be given to each-buyer.
For those who prefer the city, I have magnificent private houses in the best blocks of Harlem that can be bought with a reasonable amount of cash. Call and be convinced.

A Deplorable Case
FOR THE FIRST TIME within recent memory a Harlem physician has been convicted and sentenced on a charge of felony. In spite of his position as a professional man, in spite of his plea of self-defense, in spite of the very able defense of his counsel, who was complimented by the presiding judge, the verdict was "grutility of assault in the second degree" and the sentence a term in state's prison to from one and one half to three years.
AS THE PHYSICIAN was colored and the victim white it has already been said that the verdict and sentence were due to race prejudice. There seems to be no justification for this opinion. Every effort was made by friends to save the defendant. The presiding judge is noted for absolute fairness; the jury spent three hours deciding the points at issue; the defendant's counsel known for his combative fearlessness in the courts, made no complaint of injustice during or after the trial. The general public feels that justice has been done.
IT IS DEPLORABLE that in the danger of a moment a man should destroy the fruits of twenty years of study and professional work — his practice, his standing and his citizenship. One of the main objects of education is the acquirement of control over the more dangerous passions; another is the development of a strong ethical sense. As was said three thousand years ago, so still may be said: "He that ruleth his spirit is greater than he that taketh a city."

The Same Old Problems

THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE informs its readers that Carl Van Vechten is about to visit the capital, apparently to write another "Nigger Heaven," and warns them to be careful what they say and do when he is around. The Tribune ends by wondering when Negro writers will get busy and write about Negro.life.
THIS QUESTION is asked by many; the answer occurs to few. The Negro writer's problem is the same as that of the Negro in everything else. A young Negro graduate of Columbia University recently applied for a clerkship in a large New York department store and was refused. The Negro writer sends a story of normal Negro life to a large publisher and it is refused because it does not meet the white public's idea of the Negro. IT IS SIGNIFICANT that all the stories and plays of Negro life which have won the approval of the general white public have dealt with tragedy or decadence. "Emperor Jones," "In Abraham's Bosom," "Goat Alley," "Porgy," "Nigger Heaven," "Birthright," "God's Step-laren" are in this class. Humorities such as those of Cohen

and others, portray the Negro as a ridiculous character or a shooter and cutter. In not one of them is there anything inspiring the Negro to lift up his head. More or less subtly they tell him it is futile for him to aspire, that he is hopelessly and eternally inferior, that the wages of aspiration are defeat and death.
FOR A NEGRO writer to follow these examples and pander to this taste would indeed be death. On the other hand, if he takes the opposite stand and glorifies his race as countless white authors have glorified theirs, where is his public? When we have Negro department stores we shall have Negro clerks. When we have Negro publishers and a large Negro reading public, we shall have real Negro writers and real Negro stories.
Madame Talbert
THE AMSTERDAM NEWS offers its congratulations to Madame Florence Cole-Talbert, the first Negro prima donna. Negro women have won fame as singers before this, but not in opera. Such stars as Madame Selika, Flora Batson, Black Patti and Azalia Hackley won the public acclaim in concert work. Madame Talbert is the first to succeed brilliantly in operatic singing, to receive enthusiastic recognition in Italy, the home of opera, where ordinarily good singing is a matter of course.
MADAME TALBERT'S success is a fully deserved tribute to her genius and character and a splendid service to her race. After such a signal triumph in Europe it is not too much to hope that some day the Metropolitan Opera House of New York may present Florence Cole-Talbert in Aida."

WRITING from Paris, J. A. Rogers reports that the American Legion, in their recent celebration in that capital, tried to segregate the Negro members in special hotels. A correspondent of The Nation, who minced with the crowd of Parisian onlookers at the parade, heard this remark: "I see only two Negroes, Where are all the rest—lynched?
THE ATTEMPT at segregation failed because the French welcomed the Negroes and even Americans refused to move out of a hotel when a Negro moved in. White Americans boast of their civilization, but they constantly manifest one of the glaring traits of the barbarian, the unwillingness to accept the customs of a country as they find them. The remark overheard at the parade needs no discussion: it is complete in itself.

He has employed the contest the Muslimist decision as in the violin game the Muslimist treaty with China, still in force, which devalues Chinese subjects shall enjoy all the privileges of the public educational institutions under the control of the Government of the United States, which are
I WANT to apologize to Bishop A. L. Gaines for my release of three weeks ago referring to him as "A Heretical Bishop." I was misled into this ascription by the partial and misleading report of his discourse as it appeared in the columns of the Afro-American. Judging from the startling headline and the excerpts arranged under it, no other conclusion was possible. The Afro-American is usually reliable, though often merciless, in its news service. It would be cowardly to hide behind the shield of reportorial error, which is made to cover the sins of many writers and speakers. I will say, however, in vindication of my misguided judgment, that the report bore all of the semblance of accuracy and stood unchallenged for. several weeks, while several publications had derived therefrom the same conclusion as myself.
Upon the appearance of my release, Bishop Gaines wrote me to the effect that I had totally misconstrued his position, and that the purpose of his sermon was precisely the opposite of what I had interpreted it to be. A copy of his letter was printed in the Afro-American, I thereupon, requested to unlearn me with a complete text of his discursive interpretation to correct any wrong interpretation which was derived from disjointed excerpts, and which a careful perusal of the full discourse might justify. The bishop then sent me the July issue of the A. M. E. Keyw, containing the full text of his sermon in question. And I am fully convinced that the excerpts printed in the book are no adequate basis for assessing the attitude of the bishop on the issue treated.
In my judgment, these extracts wholly misrepresented his position. I can account for this reporter inaptness only on the supposition that the reporter must have entered the audience after the bishop had set forth his preliminary purpose, and left before he had drawn his final conclusion. The bishop was deed starling and startling when taken out of their setting. But the good bishop set up these modernist hypotheses for the very purpose of unsetting them. His argument
Poor Old Harlem
POOR old Harlem, otherwise known as New York's "Little Africa"—the most talked of and the most written about urban section in America. It is Van Veenchtenized, Garveyized and criticized almost unto death during the past decade, only to arise each morning and continue upon its cosmopolitan way as a peace part of the world's greatest city.
First, its children are not getting enough air and sunshine; next, there's something wrong with its hospitalization facilities; Tammy Hall is not treating it right; race consciousness is not developing rapidly enough; or, being held, poor Old Harlem are being held.
"Harlem," a rehabilitated word from Dutch American's Zuyder Zee, in itself means nothing. Nor does it count for anything that New York's swelling Negro population massively decided upon Harlem, rather than the East Side, Brooklyn or the Bronx, in which to have a large bice of their content to concentrate upon community development in a great city. Furthermore, it isn't of any consequence that a reasonably-proportionate number of boogieoggers and "police" kings and gangsters their trades in Harlem; or that a bit of crime-floorsls along with religion, and gambling along with Salvation Army'music.
It does matter, however, that Harlem is becoming full-grown alongside of Pall street, Oliver street, Van Cortlandt Park and Port Morris; that Harlem children, although their health may need improvement, attend, in freshborn American style, the public New York; that the people of New York; that Harlem function for Harlem just as for all other New York communities; that Harlemites worship the same God Who rules over University Heights and Van Sloan Park.
After all, it is of moment that residents of Harlem are eating full-size slices of the cosmopolitan food that they are greed, above all, and that if they are greed, above all,
enjoyed in the respective countries by the citizens and subjects of the most favored nation. This provision is confirmed by Article II of the Angell Treaty of 1580 and by Article IV of the treaty of 1594. But it does not guarantee, as the lawyer claims, "that, Chinese children of school age might attend any of the public schools in the Territory that were in any way supported by the United States." Control is the word. The schools of Mississippi is Federal control. Nevertheless, Mississippi is logical and unwise in making color a dividing line, whether the race line is justified or not.

these were the words which he had heard from profane lips while on his way to the morning service.
At the outset, Bishop Gaines set forth these words: "The purpose of this discourse is to state practically in their own language the views of infidels, skeptics and agnostics, and to urge the needs of preparation on the part of the ministers of today to show that their views are in line with the mentales of Christianity." I take it that the reporter, anxious as becomes the tribe to make a striking story, quoted these modernist views and ascribed them to the bishop, when he himself had made the citations only to demolish their validity.
Bishop Gaines's note to me made no complaint; there was no demand, not even a request, for retraction. He merely pointed out with Christian forbearance what he believed to be the basis of blunder. This is all that is necessary in case of misunderstanding between any two men of gentlemanly instinct.
velop as plain, honest-to-gooodness. American citizens they'll not require any. violent reformations or antidotes different from those which are being used to assuage their fears, to make them feel safe. And, as biologists, psychologists, sociologists and other likes of scientists, philosophers and social reformers journey to Harlem, both for the purpose of observation, reformation and recreation, we earnestly pray that they will give us the courage and less to poor old Harlem in the halcyon days of the future.
Hurrah for Jamaica
THE little, economic giant, Jamaica, of the British West Indies, with whose human output America is well acquainted, is again in the world spotlight. It has just been discovered by the New York Times Company that Jamaica's duties have almost reached the million-dollar mark. Up to the end of last month, Jamaica's revenue returns ran an average of $100 million, while her import duties exceeded Government estimates by approximately half a million.
This showing is more eloquent than all the 'platform' gossip and oratory in the world. It speaks in dollars and SENSE, which are always, far more powerful than metaphors and hyperboles.
Jamaica is a producer. It has goods that someone wants to buy. That is the wedge that opens the heart of Jamaica, is far more potent than essays on economics and dissertations on how to get rich quick.
West Indians are a progressive, thoughtful people. The great majority of West Indians who have come to America have set examples of quiet efficiency, formality, and off to jamica. What a wonderful land for native Negro leadership to help develop.

LETTERS
Several weeks ago, as some of my readers will remember, I wrote upon Henry Ford's apology to the Jews for the great wrong which, by misguidance, he had permitted himself to perpetrate upon that chosen seed of Israel's race. Any digits in making the requisite gesture to perpetrate him is in the wrong. The only greet is that no apology can ever make full amends for the wrong inflicted. Both the original statement and the apology doubly advertise the grievance. Many who read the charge will never see the disclaimer. And many who do see the retraction will discount it as a compulsion or prudence, rather than conviction. Henry Ford has still a hard time to convince many persons that this disavowal is genuine, rather than constrained.
I have been handling public questions for thirty years through sundry channels of publication. By speech and pen; in press and on platform; in book and pamphlet; in magazine and newspaper, I have treated of men and measures conceivable relationship. But I have been called upon and never felt warranted by voluntary action to retract or apologize for anything which I ever said or wrote. I have frequently incurred striking disagreement of others as competent as myself. But I have never in the disappearance of my own conscience and judgment after all, is the only thing worth while. I have always striven never to do an organization, and especially an individual, an injustice. If at any time I make a misstatement of fact or error of appraisal of fact causing injustice to any party, all that is necessary is to have my attention called to the error. The appraisal of fact out request. But mind you, I must be convinced, as I am in this instance.
All that I said about radical or heretical pronouncement on the part of priests, set apart to administer to the spiritual aspirations of these simple-minded, unisophisticated souls, I wish to reiterate with double emphasis. But I do wish to withdraw the implication that Bishop Gaines, judged from this discourse, belongs to this class. He fervently avers his belief in the Virgin birth and in all in the essential doctrines set forth in the New Testament, notwithstanding the onusphalt of seduclief or sophist. About this there can be no doubt on the part of anyone who will read carefully and, with the furnished key, his able discourse before the recent Bishop's Council.
long enough to assert that "every intelligent American citizen over 14 years of age knows that neither the Republican nor, the Democratic party has any firm intention to enforce the Fourteenth, Fifteenth or the Eighteenth amendments" (to the U. S. Constitution). Hence, argues Dean Miller, "let us hope that the race problem will be eliminated from partisan politics."
As long as the Negro in America is dealt with as a separate and distinct group, it will be impossible to take his "problems" out of partisan politics, and such partisan politics points inevitably to the Republican party, for the reason that the party is solely responsible for the constitutional amendments, or the first two thereof, referred to by Dean Miller, which, in born fide Republican states, are enforced and recognized to the benefit of the Negro. On the other hand, with amendments, as regarded by the party, make up four-fifths of the platform which makes a Democrat fescapably a Democrat.
As will recur to Dean Miller upon redirection, the enforcement or non-enforcement of the Fourteenth and Fifteenth amendments has, up until this time, been treated as a separate clause by the Grandfather clauses of which are passed by the Democratic states in order to sidestep the dreaded political equality of the Negro. Just as miscegenation laws in Democratic states prevent intermarriage, so, do constitutional prevent the Negro from shaking hands with an election ballot.
This calamity, of course, is an indirect preventative of Congressional enforcement of the Fourteenth and Fifteenth amendments, because of 16- to 1 representation—that is, 16 white votes to every one black vote, in the Democratic states—which Congressmen and Senators from those districts are now enjoying. Had the alert South been curbed at an earlier stage in to invent legal ways of disaffirming Fifteenth and Fifteenth amendments, then have been no question of enforcement in this day and time. It would have been res adjudicated. The Negro, then, is compelled to cling to the Republican party though many are its faults. Should he align himself according to the

I HAVE lived with "Copper Sun" for two months, browsing in it, again picking it up at odd moments. At the end of this time I judge it a volume of beautiful lines, of lovely moments, but not of the sustained excellence of "Color." There are a dozen unforgettable poems in "Color" and only two or three in "Copper Sun." But in this new volume, from the first page to the last, are vivid bits. From the Dark Tower comes:
"merite of men and measures" as Dean Miller suggests, it would be like dropping a grain of sugar in a cup of coffee, when the teaspoonful which we are now using scarcely adds any virtue to the beverage.
No, it cannot be done. Football, rubber ball, or whatnot, the Negro group, which has been so grouped, although unfortunately so, by the great national majority, as long as it is treated as such, must fight back as much as national political matters. And, in that role, there is no choice but that it must cling to the party of Lincoln, Grant, Roosevelt and Coolidge.

The Throney of a Brown Girl says:
Think not this grave shall keep her,

Death may dig it deep and deeper;

These lines of Death:
While still, his shears snarl through my thread,
Dismembering it strand by strand.
A few sincere music lovers and faithful church devotees braved the inclement weather of last Monday to attend an organ recital at the new St. Mark's M. E. church by William Herbert Bush of New London, Conn.
Heralded as the master organist of New London, organist of an aristocratic white church, and at last a member of the choir at the St. Louis Exposition. Mr. Bush's visit was anticipated with keenest interest.
His program, not unlike many of the organ programs of present-day recitalists, was made up of numbers evidently chosen to tickle the fancies of the less musical hearers—piano transcriptions, dull, un-organ-like and not interesting. The really worthwhile numbers were the opening selection, "Do Minor," and the concluding number, "Filinadia," by Sibellus.
Mr. Bush's playing of the former lacked the animation and clean cut technic so requisite in the performance of this masterpiece. The rather spirited movement, the ornamental flourishes, the contrapuntal niceties so characteristically with the lucidity and poeticness that make counterpoint always a pleasure to listen to.
"Finlandia" also suffered at the rectalist's hands. The whole character of the composition was seemingly lost. The opening measures, cathedral-like in their form, were in their reading of a small or insignificant improvisation. And the sorful, folk tune contained therein lost its beauty by a slow tempo and chime elaboration. Unfamiliarity with a given organ is always a decided handicap in giving a concert on a strange instrument. However, one should remember that the composition is not to be subordinated to registration.
The beautiful Casavant organ upon which the recital was played was terribly out of tune, particularly the reeds, disapares and mixtures. Patrons should be spared such torture. Instruments need to be tuned before each recital and recitalists should be allowed all the practice time they wish in which to become perfectly at home on an instrument.
Mrs. Euthar Hayes, soprano, answered rather two songs. Mrs. Hayes exhibited rather pleasing voice and encouraging potentialities. With a little more attention, particularly to intonation, phrasing and diction, she should prove a valuable asset in the concert calendar of the many who love and cherish vocal art.
Howard President Talks on Prejudice
Dr. Mordecal Johnson, president of Howard University, speaking at the World Unity Conference, held at the International House on the Crusade, declared that both the Prejudice and college were inadequate to combat the growing race prejudice of the world. "Race prejudice is the greatest of all the prejudices" continued Dr. Johnson. "For it combines all of the prejudices. The spirit of the world is to crush each other. The terrible exploitation of Africa and India by the British ought to bring shame to every subject of England. Race prejudice in its modern form is occupied with the organized movement in America can be depended upon to fight race prejudice." The Protestant Church as it stands to day is totally inadequate, he declared. "Very little hope is seen in the 1,000 colleges in overcoming race prejudice," he continued. "You can carry on any definite profession in race relationship."

An appreciation of Keats:
There is no redder blossom on the

These and many, many other
stand marked in my volume
as a redder blossom. There is
one lyric, only eight lines, a delicat
tribute to love:
Tremulous is the lover's breath
With little moans and sighs;
Heavy are the brimming lids
Upon a lover's eyes.
While the book is full of lovely lines, there are awkward ones as they. They must be deliberate.
No one can more vividly poetry than Countée Cullen. Is it part of today's realism to believe that discordance is necessary? Keats, the red blossom on the bough, did not do it. Were he alive he would rejoice in this Negro post. But how would he feel when he finished the verse whose first lines I have quoted from the Threnody:
Body that was quick and sentient, Dear as thought or speech,
Death could not with one trenchant Blow smatch out of reach.
That "blow" would be a knockout one, right between the eyes. When he had recovered consciousness he would give his excited criticism of this separating of adjective and noun.
The book is profusely illustrated but the pictures fall far below the excellence of the verse. Countee Cullen needs a rare genius to interpret his deeply imaginative poetry.

Looking for Happiness
To look for happiness is futile; one must make it, must make it out of the material in hand and not from the belongings of another.
We require but little from which to make happiness. The greatest need is the strong desire, the will to possess it. Let us not despise our possessions, be they ever so small. A few crumbs-a- and a few grains-a- and from such simple things are made our happiness.

My Need
I DO not pray that all my days
With golden light may glow.
Nor do I seek the level paths
Wherein my feet shall go.
I do not ask for toys too dear.
Nor unloved, sweet blues—
Because I know souls such as mine
Must taste of bitterness.
For wine too sweet must needs be
stored
Against a coming morrow;
So give me, Lord, within my cup
Some bitter drops of sorrow.
