GIRL, 17 YEARS OLD, CAUGHT IN ACT OF ROBBING APARTMENT
Husband, Returning Home Sunday Evening, Saw Figure at Window --- Recovers $1,000 Worth of Clothing and $65 Cash
Charged with burglary, Pearl Evans, 17, 237 West 126th street, faced Magistrate Ewald in Heights Court Monday morning under the accusation of having broken into the home of Mrs. Ida Smythe, 105 Edgecombe avenue, by way of the fire-escape and through the kitchen window, which is on the fourth floor. She was apprehended in the act of stealing $1,000 worth of clothing and $65 cash by her husband, Archie Smythe, the complainant said.
The alleged burglar girl was held without bail for a further hearing. The theft occurred Sunday night, during which time Miss Evans also helped herself to a fine dinner and, perhaps "the most unkindest cut of all" wiped her hands on the window curtains, said Mrs. Smythe.
When Smythe returned home Sunday evening he saw a figure at the kitchen window, his wife said, and as he ran toward it the figure started down the fire-escape with a large bundle. It proved to be a girl. He stopped her and held her for questioning while Mrs. Smythe summoned Patrolman Jackson of the West 135th street station. The girl was arrested and gave her name as Pearl Evans, the police reported.

"I asked the young girl if she was hungry," said Mrs. Smythe, and said that if such was the case I would have gladly given her easy for food. I told her it was necessary to steal. But she said she was not hungry and would not give any reason for doing what she did. I suppose she just did it to be bad."
When unraised for a further hearing yesterday, Miss Evans was held in $1,000 ball for the Grand Jury on a charge of burglary.
Tuskegee Sports Star Held on Theft Charge
Robert Nelson, 21, 137 West 187th street, former three-sport athlete of Tuskegee Institute, faces General Sessions Court Friday. Charged with the larceny of clothing valued at $177.50, the youth whose name was choreographed by college sport fans from 1920 to 1923 is at Liberty in $1,000 ball.
Nelson, who was formerly employed by the Trivers Clothes Stores, 1000 Broadway, is accused by the company of taking a number of coats, vests and pairs of trousers and secreting them in his room. He denies the charge.
The youth starred at the Alabama institution in baseball, basketball and football. In the later sport he was Coach Jimmy Golle's pride in the Boston-Nelson forward pass combination. He was associate editor of the Campus Daily News in 1921 before leaving school in his senior year during the Tuskegee college

City to Welcome Presbyterian Body
Churchmen to Meet Thurs day at St. James' for Four-Day Session
Presbyterian of the city were preparing today to greet scores of visitors expected here for the thirty-fourth annual session of the Afro-American Presbyterian Council, slated to meet Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday at St. James' Church, St. Nicholas avenue at 141st street.
An elaborate program, with participants drawn from all over the nation, has been arranged by general committee headed by the Kev. William Lloyd Jones, pastor of the church, playing host. The activities open Thursday with a luncheon for delegates, followed by a meeting of the executive committee of the national body.
Thursday evening marks the first public services with greetings scheduled from St. James' Church bodies and civic organizations. The Rev. Milton Thompson, of Detroit, the retiring president, will preach the annual sermon.
Public exercises will reach their high mark again Friday evening, according to the committee, when Dr. William Hallock Johnson, president of Lincoln University, addresses the session. A banquet for delegates will be held for delegates that evening in the church lecture room.
Seeing the sights of New York will occupy the visitors Saturday afternoon. A Christian educational pageant by the young people of the local council, and the St. James Choir's offering of Mohr's "Office of the Holy Communion" will bring the session to a close Sunday evening.
"Numbers" Office in Taxi, Detective Says
The now racket in the "numbers" game is to set up a collection office in a taxicab and move from place to place in order to save the expense of renting a stationary, clandestine office in some apartment, and to reduce the chances of arrest. This was revealed in Heights Court Thursday before Magistrate Edward upon the arrangement of Pearl Johnson, 27, and John Robert, 32, both of 201 West 148th street, charged with possessing policy slips. They were both held in $500 ball for Special Sessions.
Detective Beakey of Division Inspector Lahey's staff told the court that he observed several menurtively approach a taxicab parked for a period of 20 minutes at 158th street and Edgecombe avenue, and hand in small pieces of paper.
Upon investigation he said he found the floor and seat of the cab littered with alleged policy slips, in envelopes. He informed the occupants they were under arrest, he said, and confiscated the slips.

WITH SENTIMENT in Greater New York crystallized in favor of the election of Governor Al Smith, except possibly in Harlem and a few other districts, Senator George H. Moses' remarks Monday, at a meeting of the Women's National Republican Club, may be definitely relied upon to alienate the Harlem Negro vote to the candidacy of Hoover for President and Senator Curtis for Vice-President, unless his remarks are immediately repudiated by Mr. Hoover himself or by the Republican National Committee. The best way in which to do this, and about the only way that we know of that will prove effective, is to remove Senator Moses as Eastern Campaign Manager for Hoover, and let him return to the hills of New Hampshire.
"I DO KNOW THIS, HOWEVER," Senator Moses was quoted in yesterday's paper as having stated in his speech here, "THAT IN WASHINGTON THERE IS NO COLORED CIVIL SERVICE COMMISSIONER WHO DICTATES TO A WHITE STENOGRAPHER OF THE FEMALE SEX, SUCH AS I UNDERSTAND IS DONE RIGHT HERE IN NEW YORK."
THUS, IN THESE FEW WORDS, all the sentiment created for the election of the Republican national ticket in Harlem is wiped away, and cannot be restored until definite action is taken to restore it. More than this, Senator Moses' remarks are keenly resented by white Republican leaders here and by voting Negro citizens all over the United States.
Why We Are Opposed to Brutal Police Methods
IF A PERSON COMMITS a prohibited act, the power to punish is vested in the judiciary. For instance, if you apprehend a murderer, you must not unnecessarily strike him no matter how mean and contemptible he may be. If you do you are usurping the power of the judiciary. Remember that under the law all persons are assumed to be innocent until proven guilty in the manner provided, and if you punish you are taking away from that person the rights he is guaranteed by the Constitution—that he may not be punished for an offense until proven guilty, after an opportunity has been given him to present his defense.

TRATION
Section District and Register To
Declares Republicans in Washington Permit No Negro Commissioner to Dictate to White Female Stenographers as Is Done in New York City
The color issue was boldly raised here Monday, this time by one high in the ranks of the Hoover campaign forces, when Senator George H. Moses of New Hampshire, Eastern manager of the Republican National Committee, slammed a broadside at the Democrats for permitting a Negro civil service commissioner to dictate to a "white stenographer of the female sex." He hurled his scathing criticism out before 500 members of the Women's National Republican Club.
Senator Moses, a New Englander, who is not conversant with the political intricacies of New York, was following the lead of the Ku Klux Klan organ, the Fellowship Forum, which published a picture of Ferdinand Q. Morton, Democrat, civil service commissioner, dictating to a white stenographer. His reference was made of the same man.
Shared Room With Colored Woman
White Landlord Is Sent to Jail for Thirty Days
When a white man brought a colored woman to share with him a room he had rented in the home of Salvatore D'Agostino, white, 40, 403 East 151st street. D'Agostino was arrested by Detectives Rieger, Bauer, Dudley and Nachmann of Inspector Ryan's staff, arraigned in Morrissania Court Saturday and sentenced by Magistrate Bushel to serve 30 days in the workhouse on a charge of conducting a disorderly house. D'Agostino explained that his new tenant had asked to rent the room for himself and wife, and that he did not know that the colored woman was brought into his home until the detectives confronted him with her. Mrs. D'Agostino was also arrested, but was freed in Woman's Court by Magistrate Silverman. The couple's two children, however, were sent to the Children's Society, where they are being held, it is reported.
"The Bronx is one of the clearest counties in the world and I am going to keep it so," Magistrate Bushel is quoted as saying. "There is only one way to stamp out the evil and that is to make an example of this particular case."

Applauded by half of his audience, a sector of equal size received his tirade in silence. Leaders of the Republicans openly disagreed with the remarks, which they contend can only serve to arouse bitterness and possibly create a breach between white and colored Republicans.
It was pointed out, also, that the senator was unwise in choosing his subject, for recognition is given colored Republicans in New York as elsewhere. There are Assistant District Attorneys Hubert Delaney and Richard Baltimore in the United States Attorney's office; Charles W. Anderson, Collector of Internal Revenue, post office superintendents and other officials holding appointive offices without engendering the least friction and no discrimination is made in assigning white workers to assist them.
The bombshell of Moses came after a speech in which he ridiculed the Democrats for their tardy espousal of the tariff. Concluding, he submitted to questioning.
Kelly Miller's Son Dies After Operation
Was Teacher in Armstrong High School in
WASHINGTON, Oct. 8. — Isaac Newton Miller, second son of Prof. Kelly Miller, secretary-treasurer of Howard University, and Mrs. Miller, died last Wednesday following an operation for appendicitis. Funeral services were held Saturday in the Andrew Rankin Memorial Chapel of Howard University. Interment was made at the Lincoln Memorial Cemetery. "Newt," as he was popularly known, was born in 1897. After being graduated from Howard University in 1919 he took special courses in physical education at Harvard. He was appointed director of physical education in the Armstrong Technical High School here in 1920, which position he held until the time of his death.
The deceased was a member of the Eastern Board of Football Officials, the Basketball Officials' organization of the District of Columbia, president of the 1928 class of the National Playground Recreational Association of America, and a member of the Omega Psi Phi Fraternity.
Surviving Mr. Miller are the following: Mrs. Carlisa Miller, his widow; Annie May and Gloria, his two daughters; his parents; Paul Butler and Kelly Miller, Jr., his brothers; Misses May and Irene Miller, his sisters.
One woman asked if it were true that Herbert Hoover had placed Negro officials over white men during the Mississippi flood relief. Another wanted to know whether the Presidential candidate had made promises to the colored Virginians for their support.
Moses Didn't Know
"I don't know that any such condition exists," he replied, "but if any promises have been made, they will be kept."
Continuing, he declared: "I do know, however, that in Washington there is no colored civil service commissioner who dictates to a white stenographer of the female sex, such as I understand is done right here in New York."
Party Regrets Rashness
Regret that the color issue should be raised by one of the highest campaign officers flowed freely through Republican circles. The Senator only meant, it was insisted, to draw a comparison showing that Democrats and Republicans alike acknowledge the place of the Negro to serve in public office. Meanwhile, the campaign forces await the wave of protest expected to come from the Negro constituency.
SUPERINTENDENT GUILTY
OF WITHHOLDING RENT
Proclaiming his innocence on a charge of petty larceny and demanding a trial, Floyd Knox, 41, former superintendent of a building at 1075 Boston road, where he was accused of withholding $55 rent money he had collected from a tenant, was found guilty in the Court of Special Sessions Thursday and sent to the penitentiary for an indefinite period.

Johnson Raps Tammany Hall Here as G.O.P. Warms Up for Congress Race
Mrs. Mary Church Terrell Pleads Women's Support of Republicans in Rally, While Candidates Seek Harlem Votes
The Democratic party in general and Tammany Hall specifically came in for biting denunciation Thursday evening when Mrs. Mary Church Terrell of Washington and Dr. Elwood Erickson, white, of Montclair, N. J., appeared as principal speakers in a Republican meeting under auspices of the Community Forum at Abyssinia Baptist Church.
TWO
Climaking a week of active campaigning in the Interest of Edward A. Johnson, candidate for Congress, in which hundreds of Harlemites took part, the meeting presented an array of Republicans either seeking office or active in the state and national campaigns. Aaron Smith, United States deputy collector for the second district, presided.
Mrs. Terrell, who is the widow of the late Robert Church Terrell, judge of the Washington Municipal court, pleaded for support of the Republican ticket by her sex. Denouncing what she termed the "unfair tactics" of the Democrats, she lauded the G. O. P. for giving recognition to Mrs. Addie Hinton and other women.
Horace W. Palmer, white, candidate for State Senate, spoke briefly, promising fair representation if elected. Dr. Erickson outlined the history of the Republicans, emphasizing the stand it has always taken for Negroes.
The high point in the meeting came when Edward A. Johnson was introduced. The Congress aspirant assailed Mayor James J. Walker for his failure to make good his promise of a Negro judge, and for the prominence given the grandson of Robert E. Lee in the welcome to the Bremen trans-Atlantic flyers.
"Wth the Democrats in the saddle at Washington," he contended, wholesale expulsion of Negro officeholders would follow."
The speaker scathingly scored the South for its diversion of Federal educational appropriations into all-white schools. His first act, he declared, would be to attack the bill.
Music was furnished by the Abyssinian male orchestra, with P. B. Walkins directing, Miss Ruth Balloy, secretary of the forum, assisted Chairman Smith in conducting the meeting.
Eight political organizations joined in Tuesday evening with a half mile parade and mass meeting at Mother A. M. E. Zion Church in the interest of Edward A. Johnson. Led by the Uniformed Rank of K. of P. and the Manhattan and Eureka Temples Marching Club, I. B. P. O. Elks of W., with their bands, the procession filed down Seventh avenue with flaring torches.
Samuel F. Holman presided at the meeting in which the Herbert C. Hoover Colored Republican League, the Stop Lynching League, Mrs. Elnora Johnson, president; the North End Republican League, Miss Ruth Jones, president; Loyal Republican Union, Charles Williams, president; Woman's Republician League, Mrs. Rosa Lampkin, president; Political Study Class, Mrs. E. Hortence Warner, president; and the Women's Get-Together Political and Civic League took part.
Speakers included Mrs. Mary Church Terrell, Mrs. E. Hortence Warner, Dr. Julia P. Coleman, Alderman John Clifford Hawkins, J. Finley Wilson, John Wesley Illi, John A. Bolles, Abraham Grenthal, Col. Charles A. Fillmore, and George W. Harris, chairman of the Republican Eastern Speakers' Bureau, who furnished the leading speakers.

Alleged Thief to Face Grand Jury
Robbery of White Man
Leads George Johnson
Into Toils of Law
George Johnson, 31, 251 West 129th street, accused of robbing Albert Juetnett, white, 187 Grand avenue, Mineola, L. L. of $15 after assaulting him in a hallway in West 134th street, near Eighth avenue, was held without bail for the Grand Jury on a charge of robbery when arraigned in Heights Court before Magistrate Ewald, Monday morning. Juetnett testified that Johnson approached him on the street about 2:30 a.m. Saturday and after learning that he was on his way to Long Island suggested that the two of them go together, but that he first had to get his suitcase. He walked with Johnson to 134th street and as they entered a hallway, he testified, Johnson hit him over the head and robbed him.
After coming out of the daze from the blow he told his story to Patrolman William N. Robinson of the West 135th street station, who was on duty at 135th street and St. Nicholas avenue. As he approached the patrolman, Johnson himself was there being questioned by the officer, he said, and he identified him as his assailant.
The officer told the court that he observed Johnson running away from the scene of the alleged robbery and stopped him for questioning. "He told me that he was running to catch a 12:30 train," said Patrolman Robinson, "and I reminded him that it was already 2:30. When the complainant came up and accused him of the robbery Johnson finally confessed and took us back to where he said he had thrown the $15 in an areaway." And sure enough, the money was where Johnson said he had thrown it, the officer testified.
When Johnson took the stand he related to the court rather unconvincingly that he and Juettner entered a taxicab and that as they got out at 13:43 street and Eighth avenue and Juettner started to pay the driver, he (Juettner) dropped the $15 in the street.
"And when he dropped it I picked it up and ran." Johnson said, adding that he also dared Juettner to follow him.
According to police records, Johnson was convicted of larceny from the person in 1923 and sent to the reformatory at Springfield, Mass.
Phonograph Hurled In Domestic Brawl
During a fight in the home of Mary McNair, 214 West 146th street, a phonograph was hurled at the head of a visitor, George Perry, St. Clair School, Mount Hope, N. J., and about five others involved in the fray were treated for lacerations at Harlem Hospital, it was revealed in Heights Court Thursday before Magistrate Ewald. The defendants were Hermann Logan, 21, 24 West 151st street; William Hopkins, 19, 251 West 126th street, and Eddie Matthews, 21, 348 Lenox avenue, all of whom were found guilty of disorderly conduct and received suspended sentences. Perry was the complainant against Logan and Hopkins, while Dorothy McNair, 214 West 146th street, who was struck in the left eye, was the complainant against Matthews. The trouble occurred about 4 o'clock in the morning.

Williams Opens New Funeral Chapel Here
Imbued with the belief that beauty and distinctive settings have their place in the modern funeral home, Fred M. Williams, who conducts an undertaking establishment at 249 West 125th street, has opened a chapel vying with the foremost in the city. The main floor of a private residence was converted into an auditorium. A new wall was constructed and finished in an extravagant design. Cluster lights lining the four side of the room yield a soft, mellow radiance in keeping with the general color tone. Approximately 150 persons may be seated comfortably. The chairs and other wooden furniture are of the latest period and modern styles. Art-greens, ferns, imported candlesticks and draperies are also part of the equipment.
Mr. Williams came from Anderson, South Carolina, and has been in business here five years. He is a member of Imperial Lodge of Elks No. 127: Delphia Union No. 14, Prince Hall Masons; Golden Fleece Lodge No. 7887, Odd Fellows, and worships at Abyssinian Baptist Church.

Red Cross Workers in Florida Accused Of Discrimination by Relief Committee
Organization Here Issues Call for National Conference Pleads for Funds to Aid Stricken in Hurricane
Charges that the Red Cross is practicing discrimination against Negro hurricane refugees in Florida and the West Indies, as was done in the Mississippi flood relief, were made here Friday by the Negro Workers' Relief Committee, with offices at 461 Lenox avenue. The organization has dispatched a field organizer to Florida and will make independent distribution in the stricken zone.
Accusing the Red Cross of acting with the State government of Florida, the Chambers of Commerce and the Ku Klux Klan, the committee issued a call for a national conference here following the report of the field agent.
Formerly known as the Negro Committee for Miners' Relief, the organization has branches in Chicago, Cleveland and Pittsburgh. On the executive committee are the Rev. William Lloyd Imes; Henry T. Hunt, Richard Moore and Cyril Briggs.

Pleading not guilty and waiving examination on a serious charge preferred against him by a 14-year-old school girl, Lester Brilley, 16, 300 West 151st street, was held in $3,000 bail for the Grand Jury when arraigned in Holds Court Monday morning before Magistrate Ewald. Detective Moore of the West 130th street station was the arresting officer. Brilley's alleged act of misconduct with the girl occurred on Sept. 18 at 268 West 144th street, the court records show. Officer Rodrick of the Children's Society was the chief complainant, and the name of the girl's mother was given as a witness.

Hardest Fight of Life For Negro, Says Curtis
CHICAGO, Oct. 8. "The hardest fight of my public career involved the cause of the Negro." Sennoir Charles Curtis, vice-presidential candidate on the Republican ticket, told several hundred persons at a mass meeting in the Olivet Baptist Church last Wednesday.
This battle, as the candidate explained, was against Hoke Smith, senator some years ago from Georgia, whom Negroes regarded as one of their arch enemies in the Senate. Smith at the time was engaged in opposition to an appropriation for the erection of the Dunbar High School in Washington.
Senator Curtis said further: "I have always believed in the possibilities of the colored people as a race. I have been aware of their problems and have sympathized with them in their trials. I have been proud to recognize their contribution to America's progress and to use my efforts to see that they get a square deal."

Church Should Be Leader Says Ransom; Liberian Absolves Firestone
Pleas for the recognition of blood ties and aid of Liberia by American Negroes and the conscription of the church toward securing social and economic justice for colored peoples were made by two bishops in separate sermons in Harlem churches Sunday morning. Bishop T. Momm Godin, suffragan prelate of West Africa, delivered his message at St. Martin's P. E. Chapel, Lonox avenue and 122d street. The declaration that the church should forge to the front in promotion of justice was made by Bishop R. C. Ransom at Mother A. M. E. Zion Church, West 137th street.
Commenting upon the recent attacks upon the Firestone enterprises in Liberla, Bishop Gardiner declared that he has kept in constant touch with his homeland since his arrival here June 10, and not one word of dissension has been sent. The Liberian churchman praised the Firestones for their employment of 10,000 native workers in tending its 1,000,000-acre tract. Two Episcopal clergymen, under his direction, are doing missionary work on the rubber company's plantation, he revealed. With the steady advance of counts: about her, Liberla could not longer bar commercial interests seeking to develop her territory, he opined.
Emphasizing the task of the church, the prelate polated out that there are only 45,000 Christians in
the republic, in contrast with nearly 2,000,000 pagans and Mohammad medans. The Liberians have shown a commendable fortitude, he declared, and need the active friendship and aid of Americans.
Race's Position Lowest
In the economic scale in America the Negro stands lowest. Bishop Ransom told his audience of 1,500. Steering clear of politics, he pleaded for race and church leadership in remedying the situation. With 90 per cent of the members listed as laborers the solution to the life of colored folk lies in economic advance, he contended. The new leadership must come from the youth, he declared, as he urged removing unprogressive blacks from office if they show no ingrvement in fifteen or twenty years.

In Ms report to the N. A. A. C. P,
Mr. Andrews states:
“During the investigation upon
which the instances set out were
gathered, 1 heard many complaints
from Negro clerks of ‘unjust and
unfair treatment In matters of rat
ing and promotion, They felt they
were discriminated against on ac.
count of raco and color, citing in
stances of white coworkers whose
ctticteney and capablitties were less
than theirs. This diserimination
may be termed subjective and Is
probably harder to pin down.
“Negro women seem to suffer
more from race discrimination than
do the men. This Is true of em
Dloyees graded as clerks. Negrc
employees graded as laborers and
mossengers are not confronted witl
Face distinction as a general rule
This may be due largely to tho fac
that, most laborers and mossenger:

WITH three more days to go, who can predict how the registration books in Harlen, or in any other section of New York where Negroes live, will look Saturday night after 10:30 o'clock? What will be the percentage of increased registrants over last year's figures? Over 1924? Are the names on books principally those of "old-timers," or are they noticeably those of brand new voters?
November 6, in all probability, will be a time too important for any voting American to let pass by. Particularly in New York should voters be concerned, for they are to help elect a President, a Governor, Lieutenant-Governor, State Comptroller, an Attorney General, an Associate Judge of the Court of Appeals, a United States Senator, Representatives in Congress, State Senators and members of the Assembly.
But in order to take advantage of voting on November 6 you must register some time between now and Saturday night at 10:30 o'clock at the polling place set aside for you. You are at liberty to belong to any party and vote for the men you consider the right ones. If you are 21 years old, a citizen of the United States and of New York State (to be the latter you must have lived in the State one year, in a county four months and in a district thirty days) you are eligible to register.
Those who are registering and voting for the first time will cast a vote that is as powerful as the one cast by a "dyded-in-the-wool" politician—T.E.B.

Blinding Pain
at Certain Times'
"I was very weak and
thin and used to suffer with
very severe headaches," says
Miss Amie Mae Brown,
1121 R. Whitaker St., Birm-
ingham, Ala.) "I would be
almost blind, the pain was
so severe," she says.
"This was when I was just entering the upper classes at school. I didn't want to get bored. I suffered with back and spine pain. Someone suggested that my mother give me Cardui, for which I am very thankful. I took 6 bottles at that time, and was soon strong and well and did not have new braces or pains at certain time." Twice since I have been a grown woman I have taken Cardui, and it never failed to help me."

Downpour of Rain Fails to Affect Fashion Show
Judging from the number of ladies present at the Friday night fashion show, sponsored by the Unique Fashion Club, Inc., formerly the Designers and Creators of Fashion, at Rockland Palace, 155th street and Eighth avenue, a heavy downpour of rain has no effect on them. Or, perhaps, they were out in such numbers because fashion shows come but once or twice a year—and every well-dressed lady must know what Dame Fashion has decreed for her to wear.

Alhambra Hero Nabbed by Cop
Your Own Gun Must Not Be Used in Play Actor
When is a prop not a prop?
The man is the prop who is the gun and you're the prop of it and a cap nabs you for having it on you almost the moment you hit the wings. That's just what happened to James Baskett, who is assisting Amanda Braun Theatre. At the close of Sunday's matinee show Baskett was arrested by Patrolman Hannon of the West 123rd street station, charged with violating the Sullivan Law in that plaid in the theater, a revolver which he had just finished using in the little drama called "Meet the Gang."
For the first time in his life it was Meet the Magistrate's Office, Baskett who was in Night Court before Magistrate Bushel and held in $1,000 bail for Special Sessions. Bond was furnished for his release. Baskett said, by Joe Hurtig hurting a couch, the剧院, and Sullivan Hasseon both, 209 West 183rd street, both white.
"I had no idea I had so many friends until I got into this trouble. "I was afraid that I would not sleep." "And that wonderful little wife of mine did all the running around to get matters straightened out for me. I owe everything to
How It Happened.
According to Mr. Gosdofer, manager of the Alhambra, it all started with the boys, who soon make up again." But the reporter learned an entirely different story. There had been some hard feeling. It seemed, between Baskett and Clement (Dusan) that the boys had come from the way in which Baskett described the situation it seemed that there certainly was an chouy gentleman in the fuel pile. Then an old prop gun during the week," Baskett said, "and it was in such bad condition that one night I cut my hand on it. It was not necessary at all to fire the gun however. Anyway, I decided to toast it." "When I picked it up on Sunday it seemed rather heavy but I paid no attention until after the show, when I discovered to my astonishment that it was fully loaded. It certainly looked when I first began to use it."
The Plot Thickens.
Baskettt could not explain how the cartridges got in the gun, but when he discovers that he is wearing the hook with the horror of what might have happened if it had been accidentally fired while on the stage.
He said that he remarked in Fletcher's presence that he would probably shoot out the bullets into the ash can. The reporter suggested that Fletcher probably misinterpreting cannons' "caw" for Baskettt said Fletcher darted out the stage entrance like a jack rabbit dodging a hound.
Baskettt said that he was only kicked in the face when he proceeded to the basement when a heavy hand, the hand of the Law, clamped down upon his shoulder. For the first time in his life the brass snare was used to relate. "I didn't know what it was all about," he said.
Fletcher had fetched all the law he could find and although he was afraid of being more than enough to handle the situation, Baskettt believed. He smiled at the bluecoat like a comedy character smiles at a roaring lion, and rides to the ludge, with fear and trembling—perhaps with grashing of teeth.
All night long he sang "the Pistoler's Song" as it wove have driven him mad but he had to be glad when the gate swung wide and he stepped outside the jail on bail and he stepped outside the jail if freedom he must part; should the prop gun prove a pop gun it will lighten his heart. Then Fletcher continues to "Meet the Gang" with the show in Philadelphia at Gibson's Theatre.
Brooklynites Entertain
Farina at Carlton Ave. "Y"
On Thursday afternoon, Sept. 27, the members of the Troop 55, Boy Scouts of America, the Troop of the Carlton Avenue Branch "Y" and the Mothers' Club enthralled by the mature character, "Lil Farina." It was an unusual reception in that the boys did much toward arranging the plans for his coming. As soon as they heard that he was to be in Brooklyn at one of the theatres, they persuaded the master Peter "Lil Farina" to come to the "Y" building, and then they secured the support of their mothers. All the afternoon of Sept. 27 the boys were congregating at the building to give the little actors a final flirtation. Five thirty-clock came and Farina's automobile drove up to the entrance. He was then ushered into the building by a group of scouts and escorted to the platform in the gymnasium, where hundreds of people had gathered to get a peep at the little fellow.

WHEN King Vidor asked this paper to make mention of his plan for the exhibition, did not realize the ready response of almost n thousand colored fans desirous of getting into the pictures. He found in New York the colored talent he was unable to find in Hollywood and Chicago.

This one he had taken to a small producing organization in Texas and had convinced the producers that it would make them all famous. He assembled the cast, played the leading role and directed it. This was in 1912. Although none of them lost money on the venture, it brought Vidor no offers from the film industry. At this time he married Florence Vidor, who later became a leading motion picture actress, and the two went to New York, where Vidor tried extra work in the movies.

Andrew Bishop in Much Better Role
Alhambra Players Going Over Big in Revue and Playlet This Week
Andrew S. Bishop has a long record of successes in Harlem, up to the time he left New York five years ago. But never has he surpassed the role he is now playing at the Alhambra in "Red Light Magic." At its finish the enthusiastic applause sent the curtain up seven times while the players bowed and smiled their thanks for the appreciation of the audience so emphatically conveyed.
In a small town Andrew S. Bishop is judge of the city court and he tampers justice with mercy, much to the disgust of the narrow-minded including his splinter sister, played by Estelle Cain and her antique skirt once Foudsonism.
"A scarlet woman," delightfully portrayed by Edna Barr, comes to his home to seek his aid for another girl. The judge falls in love. No one else can help her friend, Jimmie Baskette, and the judge's lovely niece, Edna Harris.
A white slaver seeking to regain his hold on the girl follows her to the judge's home. She retuces to the judge of the home and plays by William Edmonson, shoots her down.
How the judge, crushed by this exertion, tries to tragic note that reaches every heart.
The gay part of the program gives Emmett Anthony a wonderful opportunity to display his comedy skills, and offers have come to him from Broadway managers. So Harlem had better enjoy him before he goes on to show the price of admission is six times as much as at the Althamra.
In "Dancing Dandles" Emmett Anthony slings all his famous spectacle before the judge satisfied, and is seen in several comic sketches. Crackshot and Pigmeat, a new recruit to the Althamra, has a new friend the other funny man, and S. H. Dudley Jr. and Jannie Baskette assist.
Doris Rheubottom delights and Ida Brown charms. Mary Clemons and S. H. Dudley and the chorus of eighteen boys and girls romp in and out of the gayety.

Many at Opening Of Alhambra Hall
Place One of the Most Up-to-Date of Its Kind in the City
Last Friday night the Alhambra Ballroom throw open its doors to a public and quite a number of Hirlemites took advantage of the opportunity to give the new dance the chance. The consensual opinion was that the management had lived up to all the promises made. The result was that on Saturday night, another those resorts visitors and others cannot miss when giving Gotham the once over. Under the personal direction of Prof. Chas. H. Anderson everything proved on hand to be on hand in dancers got three tripping the light fantastic. Two bands are on hand to music and many innovations will be in the activities of the place as time.
With its most desirable location on Seventh avenue between 125th and 128th streets, the hall bids fair to make all others it will keep pace as the Negro population has not only shown an upward trend, but is fast approaching 110th percent. The localities of the most convenient localities that could be obtained in the section, then observation it would seem that the management has left undone in entering to the people. Appropriately decorted, many marveled at the beauty of the place as it is the people have been admitted to this hall. Hundreds were totally ignorant of the existence of such a place over the Alumbrae Theatre and indication of the men making the investment.
Johnson Disclosed as the "Gene Austin in Black"
Since our last issue it has been disclosed that the party we referred to as "Gene Austin in Black" is no longer young man, Johnson, a promising young man in the musical music, who has successfully turned out many numbers, in conjunction with Andy Razaf. For the record, the noun photograph Company has been trying to uncover a "crooner" of popular songs among the colored people, but apparently without success, and the chance and from the company we have if that the release, which they hope will make a place for him as the crooner, the black, will be released the latter part, "Explainin' and" "Good Things to Come" will be the record which will most likely be awaived by a number of layers of this form of music, to understand the record number is 14361.
Some Interesting Letters
Some Interesting Letters
WITH COMMENTS
By THE EDITOR
IN justice to Mr. Franb Schiffman, manager of the Lafayette Theatre, we submitted a letter to him from Mr. George Schuyler asking that he comment on same. This is his first time he editor usually inserts a letter if he sees fit and await the reply of those concerned if they see fit to defend themselves. Mr. Schiffman's reply to Mr. Schuyler letter last week occurred when the editor usually inserts a letter that we had good reason for handling the matter as we did.
As we recall a passage of Mr. Schiffman's letter bearing on the revulsion which he felt at times to the honesty which he pumps us taking the stand we do at times, we are wondering if it was with a feeling WITHOUT revulsion that he gazed on that scene in last week's performance and others tell us, we have been led to believe are the conditions existing on Seventh avenue fronting the Lafayette Theatre. If the scene is well done, as our observers and others tell us, then Yep. There's room for thought.
But let us to the matter in hand. We asked for comments on Mr. Schuyler's and Mr. Schiffman's letters. We asked for a nightly brought the following four letters of a man whose honesty in his writings has never been questioned:
Romeo L. Dougherty,
Dramatic Editor Amsterdam News,
New York City, N. Y.
My dear Mr. Dougherty:
he ours and Mr. Schuyler seems to
be a follower of his great
grow under his feet. In publicly
complaining about the unmannerly
and incompetent conduct of the Lafayette ushers he hit upon a subject
I had been intending to release a
manuscript for several months.
But somehow it is not what
What Mr. Schuyler says is true.
At least it was true up to the time
when I suspended going to the Lafayette. The ushers there are as
shitless and snooty a set of indi-
ficials as it would be possible to
find anywhere outside of a reformatory.
Perhaps I had better modify that. Since it is impossible to identify individuals in the gloom of a theatre during a performance, unless that alone, it may be that some or even most of the ushers of the Lafayette are courteous and efficient. It may be that I have always observed that the ushers are aware and reason from their inefficiency that the entire staff is out of gear. That is possible but hardly probable. Time after time I have seen patrons stubs or ushers being ordered to show their stubs two or three times by some usher whose memory was less than a minute long. Notice I say "ordered" to show their stubs; not "ordered" to the. The thing has happened to me.
One afternoon last summer I went to the Lafayette with a boy friend. The picture was on when he asked me to go. We had to grope our way through the darkness until we found seats for ourselves. A few minutes after we had been seated an usher appeared and beaded us. I Iowed him my pass which was good for two. He examined it skeptically but finally handed it back and disappeared in the gloom. Ten minutes later he appeared again. We had to pass to be examined. Again he regarded it with a fishy eye and handed it back. Another ten minutes passed and Mr. Usher materialized out of the darkness once more. He questioned and same skeptical scrutiny.
Now, I am by nature a timid man.
Subway guards, elevator men and
hash house waiters can sally cow
up in heat in December, when the land-
lord has the nerve to come for the
rent when it's due or when some
one miscarries. I will have to go out an
battle for the family harm. Even
a theatre usher can browbeat me
with a stern look. But there is a
mind my mind if that usher demanded to
see my pass for the fourth time I
was going to get up and kick him in
the stomach. But he did not come
to see me, so we slept, so he
apparently was when we entered
the balcony.
Yours.
THEOPHILUS·LEWIS.
In closing the discussion for the time being and assuring Mr. Schiffman that we have no reason whatsoever to do other than try to help in the successful operation of a theater enterprise, Mr. Schiffman for whom we have the highest regard, we refer him to the columns of another publication right here in New York. The Contender, we admit, is a new publication, but, departing from the attitude of Nogro journals in these parts, we do not think that it means one of the best we have seen in a long day.
If Mr. Schiffman will read the page devoted to the theatre in the Centender of last week I am sure that all the things that he is making a bld for the high regard which, we say without a blush, we feel that he has had for this writer, regardless of those things which we of praise he is proud of, of praise he gladly praises, and of do believe that we should be accepted for what we are when we see things not in keeping with what these things not in keeping with what we believe to be in order.
Star of "Porgy" Writes.
MR. FRANK WILSON, who today samples the appended letter, is widely known for the splendid work he once on the stage from the early drive when he bequeared in Harlem with his own little playlets which met with immediate
success. Every once in a while he renews the friendship with the editor which started when he first came here to show us his worth and which, as luck would have it, Fate decreed that we should recognize. We are pleased at the receipt of Mr. Wilson's letter at this time as he has responded nobly to the efforts of Whitney and Tutt in the new production called "Deep Harlem." Filos of this paper will show that we have always harped upon the fact that we have not been enjoying shows worth while in Harlem since 1915. We have brought their enlisted offerings to the Lafayette Theatre.
For some reason the manner in which the name of Earl Dancer was brought to the fore in the production of *The Nutcracker* gave me a lie that it was all Dancer. Had we known that Whitney and Tutt planned coming here with something new we would have done the same thing that we have been doing in the past. We understand that the same warm welcome which they enjoyed in the past. We understand that some of our friends felt that we had forgotten the boys and not care to say much about them, which, naturally, gives us a big laugh.
What other writer in this part of the country has sung their praises as we have? What they had to offer in the past was in keeping with our longing to sing as a toll to prove the contensions which we have barked at our readers for almost twenty years. The Negro, my dear Lucette, is so ready to forget that he runs amuck the moment the thought enters his mind and next week he looks for support. Take a deep breath, is our advice, before rushing into snan judgments. Well, let us go to Mr. Wilson's jetter: Corona, L. I. Oct. 6, 1925. Mr. Romeo L. Dougherty, Dramatic Editor Amsterdam News, New York City. Friend Romeo: Having spent the better part of the season 1927-28 in New York on Broadway, we about to be working in Toronto, Canada, in the Theater Guild's play, "Porgay."
Before going let me confess to you as having spent 43 years on this old Mundane Sphere; oh. I know I don't look it," but its just true the same and I have been blessed on more than one occasion by being inspired through the medium of some artistic exhibition witnessed from time to time by some worth-while endeavor that has made me for the profession in which at this time I am striving for improvement and success.
I remember my first inspirational adventure back in 1903, when I witnessed the performance of Williams and Walker in "In Dahomoy," on the opening night of the first of Will Marlon Cook leading an orchestra of 40 white musicians to the beautiful voice of tonor Henry Troy singing Molly Green, and as Jesse Shipp, Alex Rogers, Theodore Pauky, Anna Cook, Ethel Hampton and the supporting Bert Williams and George Walker, as they assured the success of the first Necro play on annear on Broadway, and as Bert Williams hammered home the final wedge at about 10 P.M. that evening sang by Mary Cook and Rogers and in the final number when singing and dancing the "B'way in Dahomoy" number.
Williams and Walker clasped hands on their success. Boy, I left that theatre walking on air. Later on in years I witnessed a matinee performance of "The Price." I think it was with Abbie Mitchell. Walker Thompson, Marle Young, Babe Townsend and others. That to my mind was a high water mark in acting at the Lafayette Theatre and for the first time I had witnessed and could hardly think of anything else until the first performance of the Moscow Art Theater Players in this country at the Jolson Theater in 1923. These presents were "quite" Folstoy speaking no English but conveying every point by gesture and emotion.
I have never witnessed such acting in my life before or since, and as the result I was wafted to the greatest heights of inspiration. The theater was a place for years. I thought that never again would I feel the emotion and exultation experienced on that evening. But Romeo, Son, now it comes out, as the German says, "Georgiette did," and Romeo says in the end, "Son, if you want to see the best effort since the old Williams and Walker days haul ankles up to the Lafayette Theater and see 'Deep Harlem.' I inquired more and more about the details into details to the extent, as the acting goes, "It eat good to me," and I made the Friday midnight show with friend wife and others and even spent a more enjoyable evening in any man's or woman's theatre.
If there is any such thing as a Negro revue. If there will be any such thing as the great American drama, I will be in "Deep Harlem." After looking at some of the things that have been presented on the stage in Harlem as shows "Deen Harlem" was as stalking your head above middy and your heart below. Never have I seen any audience before take an entire show right to its heart and bosom and caress it gently. Man, I was so excited the whole time. Singing, Singing, Singing! My! My! My! Dancing, jam, music, just like old times. I was so worked up about the whole thing that when the little girl just stunned from the arms of her mother and fell to the floor I found myself

This is just the sort of show that might be expected from the pen of Salem and J. Homer Tutt. The boys have always striven to give us the best jokes and the best Dancer, Joe Jordson and the gentlemen mentioned above, along with the entire cast—every one of them.
Stick to it, men. I think "Dap Harlem" is a break for all of us and "Rococo needle" is say I was injured. I think "The Deep Harlem" is the beginning of some good shows in Harlem and downtown. Yours, for the success of "Deep Harlem," or may I as the continued success.

Dinner Given to Entire Company
Bill (Bojangles) Robinson Staged Big Dinner to Members of Popular "Blackbirds"
The entire theatrical profession and all Harlem are talking about the big dinner given by Bill (Bojangles) and the entire cast of the successful "Blackbirds" Company under the personal management of Lew Leslie. This is the colored profession that an individual has taken it upon himself to give such a filmmaker as was stageed at the Paley Center for the Arts, an entire theatrical company.
Bill Robinson, one of the outstanding hits with the show and one of the most professional members of the most professional of colorful, felt that he would take this medium of showing his fellow workers how much he thinks of them and the happy performers was seen in the manner in which they rose to the occasion on Monday night. From the time Robinson entered the show, he was unusual. An unusual dancer, he has always hit upon extra curves to make his audiences gasp and murmur simply realizing for the time when they could rise out of their seats and give him the applause that seldom go to an individual. Also, from the behind the footlights he has been to the fore not only staging benefits in behalf of his fellow performers and organizations, but making perseverance seem such to make any bell perfect.
Robinson has appeared all over the United States and Europe and there are a few places where he isn't known. He is one of the ultimate an instrument to those performers of a lighter ice stealing his act and within twenty-four hours an account appeared in a European paper. The act was performed at the attention of the Amsterdam News by the representative of a white European journal, which provides better than anything else the opportunity to hold of the popular dancer all over. When the final curtain fell on the show at the Liberty Theatre on Monday night the performers hoped to be the first line for Small's Paradise. The affair was one of the biggest of its kind and the following special menu was enjoyed by the company and the dancers specially invited for the occasion:
Bill Robinsons in driving deep another wedge and a good reason why thousands of people all over the country will go out of their way to see him whenever his name adorns a theatre in whatever town. A Swell Time
The trite phrase, "A good time was by all, applied in its follow-up," is lightly successful party. The entire management of both the "Blackbirds" company and the Liberty Theatre staff, including the executive staff, stage crow and ushers, present.
Robinsons publicly expressed his thanks to Leslie for the success he has enjoyed during the past six months, which he said had caused him to become worth $2,000 more to his circuit.
Leslie expressed his thanks to Bill for helping to make "Blackbirds" the great success which it has become. Sol Leslie, Lewis brother, was present also.
The entire cast of "Blackbirds" was introduced, including Ada Ward, Holly Hall, Tim and Gerty Moore, Maureen Mimel and Peg "Creighton Bates, George Cooper, Johnny Hudgins, Blue McAllister, Cecil Mack and his "Blackbirds, Choir," Harry "Shorty" Lucien Moore, Leah Crawford, Jackson Mitchell, Mitchel Mike Davis, Chester Jones, George Rickson, and the "Blackbirds" chorus of fifteen baby dolls. Alle Ross, leader of "Broadway's fanfare," was also diseased. The hobbit of Mice Ward and Hall were in attendance, also. Those of the company and the theatre management who were presented included Mr. and Mrs. Harriet Ward, Miles Ward, Schiller Arthur Low, Fred Schiller stage manager, and Charlie Coogan and his stage crew of about fifteen men, and others. Leigh Whipper, the crush man "Peg," Smilu's watters served a menu that was fit for a
Drake-Walker Opens in Harlem
Negroes Should Support Venture of Performers Now on 125th Street
The Drake-Walker Company opened at the Drake Theatre, formerly the Teatro Apolo on 125th street, near Seventh avenue, on Monday night and go on. The theatre is really one of the outstanding members of the Negro theatrical profession and a man who should receive consideration from his people. He is always paid the people working for him and has established a record second to none in the profession. His word has been his bond all over the country and theatrical speak of him in the highest terms. We could, perhaps, go into lengthy details on the opening of the show at new Drake Theatre, but no one would want to miss this time to say something about this young man who has been the most successful of all the colored producers of the day in that he has something to say. His career can come to Harlem and his years leave with the option of a longer term, that is, Negroes in the profession, and few producers can say that they have their obligations as Henry Drake.
In all these years we have had no colored man with enough guts and capital to holdly take over a theatre and attempt to compete with those now in operation, hence when a man of color seeks the patronage of his own people after having established a record such as that possessed by Mr. Drake, it is time to demand the attention of the reading public.
Popular Drake and Walker
Drake's big company arrived in New York on Monday morning and immediately got busy for the opening. The theatre was scene of excitement, with a horse in many a day. With his wife and most able assistant, Miss Ethel Walker, Mr. Drake got busy and by the time the people sought their seats in the theatre everything was in skin shape order for the big attraction. Mr. Drake offered at the Drake Theatre it will be as good as offered at any of the other theatres here. The company has been one of the only aggregations which commanded the attention of other cities in the East and could always depend on return engagements wherever they appeared. Some years ago Drake kept the Putnam Theatre in Brooklyn open and when his company left, Brooklyn closed and shortly after the house closed.
If his shows were good enough for the剧院 right here in Harlem to battle for them, going so far as to enter court proceedings to keep him out have had contracts for another, then surely his shows should be good enough to be supported when he is investing his own money in a theater, and have a reflection on the people of Harlem to allow Drake to fall where their support has kept other theatrical running successfully. The entire population supporting the剧院 issterdam News is not ashamed to jump to the front and ask for the support of a colored man who has so lived that he has never yet ask for his money, and he has ever failed to meet his obligations. No one chorus girl can claim that she ever failed to receive her money from the Drake-Walker Company, something which cannot be said for the other producers. Give Henry Drake and his a great big hand.

Robeson Scores Over Producer in Law Tilt
LONDON, Oct. 3—Paul Robeson scored a partial victory today over Mrs. Caroline Dudley Regan, white and a former Army officer, him to return to the United States for appearance in a revue for which he had contracted, when the court refused to grant an injunction for him from the "Show Boat" company.
Sir Alfred Butt, director of the company, is quoted with having said that the show might end if Robeson were forced from the cast. In denying the injunction, the court practically admitted that the producer has ground for a damage suit against Robeson is under suspension by Actors' Equity Association of America because of the breach of the contract. The action does not apply to engagements abroad.
At the Douglas
Excellent screen entertainment is offered in Fox Films "Road House," which comes to the Roosevelt Theatre for three days' engagement. It is a colorful, splendidly told story of a youth, directed by Richard Rosson. Besides its value as a clean-cut, well-directed motion picture, "Road House" brings two players to the screen. Maria Alba, acclaimed the director of the personality plus, besides being very easy on the eyes. She has marked talent and promises to make screen history.
The other youngster is Warren Bain, who plays the role of the prodigal son. Bain gives an excellent performance and is a real find in juvenile ranks.

The breed girl, the sensation of "What Price Glory" and "Resurrection," is said to have the finest opportunity her cyclonic career has yet given her.

Commencing next Monday night, October 15, the management of the New Lincoln Theatre will inaugurate a new policy which will bring to auditors at this house a change that will be for the best. Three big shows for the price of one will include a musical comedy revue with twenty-five people, the cast to be changed weekly, bringing new principals to the theatre, which will be decidedly welcome.
Three big time vaudeville acts from the major circuits will also appear weekly, with change of these acts on Monday and Thursday. Although the Lincoln has long ago established a reputation for showing some of the best pictures in Harlem to be seen in any theatre, white or colored, the management has decided to go in for some of the most exclusive film offerings which will give the Lincoln added impetus as the house has never lost its picture fans. Every Saturday night will be surprise night as in the past and those who have found it hard to obtain the next days dinner would do well to attend. The house also mentioned night. Spirited contests will also be inaugurated for other nights in the week, of which newspaper readers and theatre fans also attended. Columns of the local papers
This week the "Lincoln Follies" with a selected cast of thirty-five actors, including musical tabloid with a kick, which will be supported commencing Thursday by Florence Vidor and Albert Conti in "The Magnificent Man" with a fascinating Miss Vidor as an out-and-out flirt, a resident of Paris, a lover of the galeties of the French capital and the triptych of the geysers city. Lincoln parrons will find much more to enjoy in this picture than in many shown within the past few months. The show will feature no more than any shown in her previous pictures, and her acting excels all she has done in the past.
The New Show by Whitney and Tutt
One of the Best Seen in Harlem in Some Time
In presenting "Deep Harlem" with those veterans of the footlights, Salem Tutt Whitney and J. Homer Tutt, supported by a cast of seventy-five people, at the Lafayette Theatre last week, Earl Dancer, an actor, and Jeremy Perelman, a new Negro stage production, based upon the history of the race, which contains a wealth of dramatic material.
"Deep Harlem" is a swift and vivid panorama of race history in ten scenes of drama, comedy, song and dance, beginning with the Kushiro who in ancient, resplendent Ethiophia, ending in the Harlem gin mill of today.
It depicts in a masterful manner the true-life story of the Negro, en masse, from the state of rulers, through abject slavery, down to the present day of jazz, gin and joynness.
"Deep Harlem" opened this week at Howard Theatre at Washington, D.C., and was booked for Gibson's Theatre in the Quaker Town the following week.
The complete story of this stupendous production, which is already scheduled to appear on Broadway at the New York theater and Tutt, who based the theme of the play upon one of their earlier and outstanding successes, entitled "My People." Deep Harlem" transports the king of theatrical and other members of the Kruger tribe as well as the Prince of Batabuille, through several incarnations covering a period of a few thousand years.
As an elaborate, well staged, hard-earning and instinctive performance, Harlem" passes "The Children of the Sun," another spicuous success from the facile pens of these prolific playwrights.
To the minds of old timers "Deep Harlem" recalls those unsurpassed veteran writers and producers—"George Washington Bullion," "The Mayor of Newtown," "George Washington Bullion Abroad," and also their Broadway attitl. Joy a master of theatrical art has received not a single adverse criticism from the metropolitan daily press.
Whitney and Tutt have been writing and producing musical comedies, sketches and tab shows for over a quarter of Deep Harlem is a fitting vehicle for the culmination of their fine artistry.
The show opens with the gorgeously costumed, elaborate setting of the palace of the Kushite king, followed by a desert caravan, and then the next finest and most realistic scene of the story. Now comes the Plantation scene, the Convict Farm, Deep Harlem and Seventh Avenue, the latter scene or sketch having been written by Whitney new himself in the Avenue with his master hand. The Gin Mill scene closes the performance.
*Maurice Hunter Signs Up*
Last week Maurice Hunter, nationally famous artists' model, signed up with Earl Dancer to appear in "Deep Harlem," and his first appearance at the midnight show at the atmosphere of the production.
Hunter is the chief model for the Art Students' League of New York, 215 West Fifth-seventh street, and magazine illustrators who paint pictures both for the covers and in the themed, in-house Hunter as a model on almost innumerable occasions.
The entire production was staged by Dancer, Whitney and Tutt, assisted by Doe Doe Green and Nat Cash. Book and lyrics are also by Whitney and Tutt. The costumes from the house of Brooks, 260 West Fort Street are "Deen Harlem" is principally a singing production, with an ensemble of forty trained voices. Among the soloists and leading singers are Thomas Hall, Charles Willis and Sterling "Red" Grant, all honors, and Josephine Heathman, soprano, who took a prominent part in Broadway show, "In Abraham's Bosom."
Also, there are the Croole Four, a female quartette consisting of Helen and Jean Wallace and Winston Bingham. Male Quartette, comprised of Charles Bridges, Leo Key, Dave Ausbrook and Anthony Getzel, and the Four Northern Brothers Quartette.
Jordan and his Twelve Sharps and Plats have given the entire piece a rhythmic, throbbing heart whose beat set up an harmonious vibration within the emotions of the audience that is irresistible. Jordan was the first interpolated number were written by J. C. Johnson and Andy Razaf.
Mabel C. Ridley takes the leading role in the quartet with Charles Willis and I. Homer Tutt are in the role of princes. Whitney plays the part of the Kushite king, and later appears as Deacon on the plantation and as "Bridges," the star of Saventh avenue. Sterling Grant does very fine character work also.
Pearl Darrell gives an excellent exhibition as the Snake Dancer, Howard Elmore and Harry Mayna, tan dancers, brought down the house. Alice Gorgas, dramatic star in the portrayed the characters of witch and pimp's hustler, Louis Cole, dapper smiling Beau Brummel, and his partner, Pearl McCornick, a charming darling, were the hit of the show with their dance specialties.
Ed Push and Doc Doe Green, partners in fun, furnished the chuckles, Orca and the Gorilla, Jackson, Rose White, Karl Cook Rosa Anderson and a hey of prancing, dancing chorus beauties.

"Hot Feet" at the Lafayette Theatre Another Harper Revue Being Offered at Seventh Avenue House
"Hot Feet," Harper's new revue at the Lafayette this week, differs from the last week's, sensational show. "Dee Hustle," a sensational purue a show, but one that moves with lightning speed through dances, comedy, chorus numbers and sweet melodies. Individual honors were about evenly divided among old favorites and newcomers, the famous Keith Jennings, the Dixie Four, were of course, the most popular. Always a splendid group of entertainers, this singing and dancing quartette give their very best to the audience. Yesterday were greeted with thunderous applause. Then came Frank Radcliffe—he of the sweet voice, the gong-maker, the fast foot and the dancer. In the midst, Halleck. Radcliffe "stopped the show."
Miss Mattle Hilo, a dramatic soprano and blues singer de laux, sang with more fire and melody than audiences have heard in months, and she, too, had to explain that the hour was late before the audience knew what was happening in comedy dancing team of Joyce and Rookie also were a hit. Miss Joyce is a splendid singer and dancer, while Miss Rookie's eccentric dancer costume had the audiences convulsions. A team of white aesthetic dancers, Jose and Edythe, took part in two of the scenes and performed the music for "Hot Feet" being rendered by LeRoy Tibbs' Band, which has just completed a season's engagement at Connie's Inn. They came from one of a ship. This band includes the dance and jazz bands in Harlem.
The photophy part of the program unites a slight change this week. The picture will be "The Queen of the Chorus." Beginning on Thursday, the program will be "With the Tide," a stirring story of a life that was wasted and a soul redeemed. Both stage and screen performances are rare entertainment this week.

Sylvester Cohen Also on Big Card at Manhattan Sports Club Tonight
The stage is in all set and the crowd will get in motion early tonight to tre: to the Manhattan Sports Club, located at 155th street and Eighth avenue for Kid Chocolate will again be seen in action when he throws the ball hardest test in the person of Eddie O'Dowd, the boy who has held his own against Bust Taylor, Bushy Graham, Abe Goldstein and Pete Zlivc. Winning every fight in which he has engaged since coming to this arena will be the winner, won a remarkable following on account of his splendid showing in the roped arena. His last fight was at the St. Nicholas Arena last week, when he handed Johnny Erickson such a pasting the white boy resort-room, but defeated the defeated opponent, when the bell ended the action in the last round.
Supporting the main bout will be George Hoffman, former amateur national champ, who has knocked out Bernie Zaucklebe. Another former national champion, in the person of Sylvester Cohen, one of the best boys produced in the amateurs and who piled up a remarkable record before turning "pro," and added to trade wallows with Billy Lynch. With an eye to giving the more exacting fans real bouts, the management of the Manhattan Sports Club are looking around and trying to see the boys to show at the Manhattan in the near future. Any colored boy with any kind of a reputation in the game will get a chance at the uptown club and tonight will be a fixture of what to expect in the future.
Larry Creighton, the former amateur heavy who had to go to Boston to get work because the boys in these parts all found a hole when his name was mentioned, is underlined for an early appearance at Stanford. He studied six of his last eight opponents and has also won a big following among those keeping in touch with things fictive.
HOWARD BISONS IN FINE GAME
Butler in Splendid Game Against Howard University Team
SALISBURY, N. C., Oct. 5.—The Howard Bisons journeyed down to Salisbury from Washington and handed the Livingstone Bears a severe drubbing in their own back yard, the final score of the game being 32-0. In this year's team letter, he lacked a deal of co-ordination of effort, and too, several vets were forced to retire from the game because of old injuries. Butler, the veteran 190 pound full-back, was the shining light of the defense and offense of the game. He was handicapped by a lame ankle, he was in every play intercepting passes, tackling hard and putting up a marvelous defense. He was responsible for the only two first downs registered by the Bears. Berry, the flashy quarterback, played a new game as did Ormond, Battle and Mc
The old war horses, Ross, Simpson and Cole, were the Howard mainstays, with Marshall flashing some brilliant broken field running. In the last quarter the second string quarterback, Payne, on incedered one touchdown and was wilt one yard of another when the F. I whistle blew.

sion, we will say "It won't be long now." for on Sunday night, Oct. 14, at the Renaissance Casino, 138th street and Seventh avenue, Bob Douglas and his World's Colored Champion Renaissance team will give us all a chance to exercise our lungs, by cheering his boys on to victory over the Bronx Professionals, who will open the season against the famous quintet on the Harlem Court. The Bronx Pros have always been a good drawing card at the casino, because they can always be depended upon to give the Renaissance a rattling good fight. For the past few weeks Bob has been putting the boys through their paces, and they are in the pink of condition for their season's premier.
To beat the Renaissance on their home court is the desire of all visiting teams. The reputation of the colored champions is known in every quarter of this country. The Bronx quintet will try to be the first to gain that honor, but the Renaissance will also strive to open the season with a victory. The casino fans love a winner, and the Renaissance team knows what is expected of them by the fans that go to see them season after season.
We feel sure that the casino will be packed, and all the rail birds and balcony gods will be in their accustomed places when the opening whistle is blown.
Original Collegians told us that his boys are putting on the finishing touches in their training for the opening of their season Friday night, Oct. 19, at the New Alhambra ballroom, 126th street and Seventh avenue. The Collegians will play amateur basketball against amateur teams, and try to revive that spirit formerly exhibited by the famous teams of Alpha Physical Culture, St. Christo-

pher, and Spartan Field clubs years ago.
The team is comprised of a classy bunch of youngsters who made a good name for themselves the past two seasons, and who, with good management and the proper team spirit, should be a hard team to beat.
We can never forget the glorious past, when the big three, Alpha, St. "C," and Spartan were the bulwark of the city's defense against such teams as Loendl, Hampton, Howard, etc. The sparkling playing, keen rivalry, organized cheering squads, and general good-fellowship will always live in our minds.
If the Original Collegians can revive this spirit again, basketball in New York City will be better off for it, for we want the vehicle by which our young players can be developed.
In the Renaissance Five we have the best colored professional team in the world, and they are just a step behind the best in the world, white or colored.
We should like to have the best amateur team in the country in New York City, so let's see what you can do, boys.

'BABY JOE' STOPS DIVODI IN NINTH
Coast Boy Will Meet Reisler In Harlem This Saturday
Although Baby Joe Gans demonstrated his punching ability to the complete satisfaction of the large Square Garden Friday night, when he knocked out Andy Divoi in the ninth round of the semi-windup, he made a very favorable impression on the sport's sponsorship and ring conduct.
Seldom has a boxer been fouled us many times as Gans was and stayed on his foot, and seldom has a referee let a boxer be fouled as he was and stayed on his foot with disqualifying the offender. The white lad started his low punch in the fourth round and a low left to the groin temporarily crippled the young master in the right leg. Gans was leading nicely on points at this time and the warming up to Gans were all with him after Divodi's misuse. Gans managed to shake loose the cramp in his leg during the rest between the fourth and fifth rounds and he went after the welterweight in a businesslike way as he stood down to hold Divodi didft back, where before he had been content to hold, but when he went to his corner his handlers had to use the smelling salts and also patch up the cuts in his face, so damaging had been Gans' punching. He was not in the low punches and, when the referee warned Divodi, Gans patted his opponent on the back.
Divodl was extremely lucky to weather the seventh round, for Gans rocked him from pillar to post with a flock of lefts and rights. With the crowd encouraging him, the California boxer continued to pile up his lead in the eighth, but no one thought he had the power left after a tough fight. With a tough fight, to score knockout, He scored his knockout in the ninth, with two minutes and forty-eight seconds of the round gone. A one-two left to the head sent poor Divodl to the canvass flat on his face. He got up soon after the count of ten, but was out of his head. The weights were announced Gans 140 and Divodl 146 pounds.
GANS AT THE OLYMPIA
A double windup of mixed bouts, featuring four of the most prominent boxers in the welterweight and lightweight divisions, will be the first offering at the Olympia A. C., in Harlem, Saturday night. The first ten-round brings together Jackie Pilkington, Harlem, welterweight pride and Al Iaquinta, Newark, with recently gave Ruby Goldstein and Tommy Grogan stiff opposition in ten-round battles, while the second ten finds Baby Joe Gans of Los Angeles paired with Johnny Reisler, welterweight of Harlem. In two six-round contests Marty Sampson, welterweight stablemate of Tommy Grogan, meets Joe Gans of Brooklyn, and Low Jewel, Brooklyn featherweight, clash with Benny Martinik, Benny Altman and Steve King, light-heavyweights, clash in the four-round preliminary.
BROWN BOOKED TO BOX ABROAD
BROWN BOOKED TO BOX ABROAD
Popular Bantam Going to Repeat Former Success in Capitals of Old World.
From the front page to the last page the Amsterdam News is in the habit of scooping not only rival Negro papers in the community, but the leading white publications and the announcement of the plans of Al Brown is another instance. Brown will be leaving for Europe in the near future, possibly next Thursday, to go through with some books looked for him on the other side by his manager, Dave Lumansky. It is more than likely that the National Boxing Association will also decide to name the colored fighter champion of his class either before or after he leaves for Europe, Bushy Graham absolutely refusing to meet Brown in a championship encounter. While the New York Boxing Commission is in the habit of scooping the implications of the national body, it is expected that they too will take action against Graham.
Since returning to this country from his recent trip to Europe, Brown has made an even better impression on boxing fans and writers and he has been for months hailed as the ten champion of the class. Brown must all the boys sequestered him and it was the intention of the powers that be at Madison Square Garden to put him on with Graham in the elimination tournament which would have given him the full claim on the title. But Graham is actually afraid to meet the colored lad crier motion to take against him if the various commissions are to be consistent. The Amsterdam News will be the first to tell readers of the boy that Brown will meet upon his arrival in Paris. At the present time it has not been disclosed just what fighter Brown will be going to fight. The popular and gentlemanly little fighter will again leave these shores with the best wishes of hundreds of friends.

BRONXPROSFULL OF CONFIDENCE
White Players Determined to Give Renaissance Five Bad Start Sunday
Bellving that they have the jump on the Renaissance Five, world's colored basketball champions, because they have been putting some hard work in getting ready for the past three or four weeks, the boys making up that popular combination of basketball players known as the Bronx Professionals, are exuding a confidence which bodes ill for the Douglas men, unless they are ready when they take the court at Rolandee Casino the coming Sunday night.
Always wearing an egnamatical smile, Bob Douglas has "nothing to say," except that his men will be ready when the time comes to show off the which they were be wearing for the last week you did not come to them because of being "paper made." With Slocum in the lead after preparing for the past few weeks, followers of the local team will expect them to show no trouble, although it is but the start of the season.
Fisk Takes Season's First From Simmons Last Week
Fisk defeated Simmons of Louisville, Kentucky, before a crowd of approximately 800 to a score of 12-6. This was the first game of the season for both teams. Considering the heat the game was very well played. The first half was replete with incomplete passes. The stars of the first half were Yost and Burke, Yost running for a touchdown of 68 yards. In the second quarter Fisk made a touchdown on a fumble by Simmons. Captain Burke of Simmons made a sensational run of 75 yards by attempting a touchdown. Following the points the first half ended 12-6 in favor of Fisk. There was no score during the second half. Penalties were frequent on Fisk's side. Exchange of punts made it impossible to show Fisk's defensive strength. There is much anger aimed at him. Gonch Johnson hopes to iron the kinks out of his men before the next game.

Wins Exhibition Game
In their first exhibition game of the season the Renaissance Five knocked over the strong Y. M. H. A. Five at their headquarters on Ninety-second street last Sunday evening by a score of 35-23. The colored champs believe that this tilt has placed them in fine fettle for the Renaissance Storm light, the Renaissance Casino when the official opening in basketball in these parts takes place.

Inability to take advantage of the breaks of the game sent the Bulls down to defeat before N. C. State by a score of 13-3.

There was a fast charging line, and it was only after State put on its aerial attack that victory began to loom forth for the home team at Durham, N. C. The two touchdowns made by N. C.

CEDARHURST, L. L., Oct. S.—Cedarhurst defeated the Penn Red Caps, 6 to 4, here yesterday. Hendrickson, Cedarhurst pitcher, was the star of the game, striking out 11 men and hitting two doubles.
In the ninth inning, the Red Caps
started a rally and shoved two runs
across the plate. A double play,
Reedlinger to Blor, ended their
hopes of equalizing the score. The

Wales Presents Photos
| To African Tribe Heads
NAIROBI, Kenya Colony, Africa,
Oct. 3—Probably seeking to
strengthen the bond hetween the na-
tives and the British crown, the
Prince of Wales pnid honor to 2,000
chiefs and headmen here today as
‘he Presented his photograph tq each
tribe im attendance. In direct con-
trast to the motley assemblage he-
fore the thatched huts, an airp!cue
sped back and forth over the camp.
Despite the fact that many of the
natives had never seen a flying ma-
ching they paid scant attention to
it while the royal visitor greeted
them, Upon its landing later, how-
ever, they crowded dangerously
near the whirring propeller to ex-
amine this foreign marvel.
Looking
Your Best
—— By FANNETTE——
Sunday Girls
CAN 8 woman neglect herself six
days a week and expect to make
good appearance on the seventh?
-_ Is she doing herselt justice st she
doesn't try to make a good appear-
‘ance always?
Many women we seo on the sub-
way and street, traveling to and
from work, look as though they had
spent much care and time In dress-
Ing. They look more like ladies of
letsure then working girls. | Every
¢ay Is Sunday as far as appearance
1s concerned. Looking your best
only on Sunday has become almost
as proverbial as the Saturday night
bath,
We want to look fresh and clean
every day. We are judged, gazed
at and talked about on week days
more than on Sunday, because it’s
understood that even a tramp tries
to doll up a Ittle on that day.
‘A bith once a day, carefully
brushed teeth, well-kept nails, pol-
ished shoes, clean stockings (non-
twisted) and a dress that {s minns
spots, Wrinkles, soiled collar and
cuffs, should be regular features in
the daily program.
‘Tho psychological effect of\look-
Ing and feeling up to tho minute Is
marked. Wo feel self-assured, un-
embarrassed and can meet the most
critical eye unflinchingly,

Community Center Head Principal Speaker at Regular Monthly Meeting
Willard J. Price, president of the Commercial Community Center and a member of the Dorough Civil Association, was the principal speaker at the association's regular meeting last Tuesday night at its headquarters. Mr. Price gave a very interesting talk and told of his recent experience. Conditions were such, he said, that they constantly reminded the Negro that he is a Negro and that the Negro of his so-called "interferior complex", and that the Negro showed greater economic and industrial tendency towards racial solidarity. These observations forced the speaker to "wonder if the Negro in the community had too much liberty, for where he has so much liberty of action in trading and doing other business colored brother in business suffer."
Mr. Price also said that greater Negro patronage of Negro businesses made greater business and there was a need for our boys and girls. He also told of his efforts in trying to provide a place in Brooklyn that would serve as a civic center owned by the company. He told of his outlining his plans to the white owners and how they were interested and, to show their interest, reduced the original purchase price. The company has taken hold of the property the company has been offered a price for it that would give a profit on the investment, but the company has remained to keep it in their own hands. Mr. Price also spoke of the lack of support he has received in putting over this community proposal and discouraged and would carry one. The meeting was largely attended and a number of new members were taken in. There were also a large number of unknown citizens present as visitors.
The members had quite a discussion on the proposition of the secretary having a committee look up the record of Republican and Democratic candidates for local State and national office and ascertain their attitude and the measures to be amended by the committee to be endorsed by the association. This proposition was lost, as some of the members thought that it was established as the precedent for a civic organization. Plans were also made for the Christmas Basket Fund reception to be held in the city. Last year quite a number of baskets were given to needy families in the uptown section. This year it is hoped to double the number. Benjamin Battier is chairman of the committee.
Other officers are: Mrs. Elsie Williams, vice-chairman; George E. Wibecan Jr., secretary; Mrs. Maund J. Savage, treasurer; Among the members of the committee are: Mrs. Harry Lapelle, Mrs. Cooper, Mrs. Maud Scott, Mrs. Margaret Maud, Mrs. Richardson and others.

Constipation Often Causes Sickness
"About fifty years ago," says Mr. Lewis G. O'Shields, of Porterville, Ala., "my mother gave me the first dose of Black-Draught, and I have taken it ever since, when I needed a medicine for constipation. I have used this remedy all my married life, in raising my children.
"I have used Black-Draught frequently for heartburn, as I have had spells of this kind, off and on, for years. This follows indigestion, and indigestion comes close on constipation. "I have found that the best way to head off trouble is to begin taking Black-Draught in time. It leaves me of dizziness, tightness in the chest, backache. "By getting rid of impurities, Black-Draught helps to keep the system in good order. I always keep it in the home, and have recommended it to many people, in my time. I always say a good word for a good medicine." Sold by all druggists.

Intended as an old in revitalizing the organs of reproduction, many report also that it helped to relieve many of the ailments common to women, such as bearing-down and periodical pains, etc., and aids them to lead happier and more comparable lives.

Stroking the Southern Cat
Stroking the Southern Cat
EVER SINCE the death of Charles F. Murphy, the chief of Tammany Hall, Negro voters have wondered what was the real attitude of Judge Olvany, Mr. Murphy's successor, toward them. For several years he was non-committal; even the Negro Democratic office-holders were uncertain of him. Now he has spoken in no uncertain terms.
HE HAS SAID that he will no longer recognize the United Colored Democracy, which has existed since Croker's time and which reached its height under Murphy. He has said that the Negro Democrats of Harlem shall no longer be allowed to select their own leader, but shall be represented by the white district leader. The reason for this decision, he said, is that there are only 23,000 Negro Democrats.
THE REASON GIVEN by Judge Olvany is entirely inadequate for such a decision. Under Croker and Murphy the Negro Democratic vote was far less than 23,000, yet the Colored Democracy was fostered and encouraged in its work of converting Negroes from Republicans to Democrats. Negroes were appointed to good city positions, club houses were maintained, and the chief of Tammany Hall recognized and supported whatever leader was chosen by the Negroes. At times the leaders were accused of a lack of energy and of failure to use all available means to further their mission, but if the Negro Democratic vote was not larger it was certainly not the fault of Tammany Hall. And as Judge Olvany, upon his accession to power, declared his intention of continuing the policies of his predecessors, Croker and Murphy, the reason for his decision must be sought elsewhere than in the smallness of the Negro Democratic vote.
THE TRUE REASON grows plain when one considers the general trend of Tammany Hall's policy this year. Governor Smith has done all he could to satisfy the South on the Negro question. As for Mayor Walker, even if his alleged behavior in Rome be discounted, he has done more truckling to the South than any other Mayor or Governor in the history of New York. During this campaign the report has been spread through the South that Governor Smith had a Negro secretary and that Tammany Hall's policy was to appoint Negroes to high places in the city government. Now, as if in answer to this report, Judge Olvany declares that he will not recognize Negro Democrats unless they are subordinate to white district leaders.
THE JUDGE'S DECISION, therefore, is only another move on the part of Tammany Hall to please the South. At whatever sacrifice of pride or principle, Tammany Hall intends to stroke the Southern cat the right way.
Language or Slanguage
AMERICA PRIDES HERSELF on democracy, which, of course, means government of the people by the people: More concretely, it means that anybody can become President, whether he was born in a palace or in a pit. This has been taken to mean that a President does not need a background of education, a cultural training, or any familiarity with the usages of refined society. Indeed, there have been several Presidents notably lacking in all these qualifications, especially in the frontier days.
THE TROUBLE with this theory is that the frontier days are gone. The United States has grown to the position of a first class world power, and is more concerned with world affairs than ever before. Hence the people feel that for President they want a man who always comports himself with dignity. Apply this rule to the two men now running for the Presidency, what do we find?
ON ONE HAND we find a man who has spent his life in tremendous projects which have taken him all over the world, among big things and big people. When he makes a speech he confines himself to the larger issues of the campaign, to the welfare of the Republic, to constructive pro-

posals and safety. He hurls no brickbats, he never assails the opposing party with recriminations, he never answers personal attacks, and his language is always that of the dignified statesman.
ON THE OTHER HAND we find a man of pleasing personality who knows how to catch a crowd. His life has been spent in practical politics. When he makes a speech he devotes part of it to answering what some woman said about him, he says his opponents are against him because of his religion, he drags out seven-year-old accusations of corruption against the opposing party, he is angered because that party's leaders will not let themselves be dragged into a debate with him, he accuses people of whispering about him. As for his language, when he wishes to say that a report or argument is unfounded he says, "That's boloney" or "That's Moran and Mack stuff," or a kindred expression.
AS THE PAPERS on both sides have said that the real issue of this campaign is the personalities of the candidates, the public will have to decide which it wants in the White House, a dignified man of action or a politician, language or slanguage.
Prohibition in the South
PROHIBITION has been called a moral issue by some and a political issue by others; in the South it is neither. In that section of the country it is, like everything else, a race issue. A correspondent for the Chicago Tribune has ascertained that the South's main reason for voting against liquor was to keep it away from the Negro. Representative Southerners told him that they drank all they wanted, Prohibition or no Prohibition, that the important thing was to keep the nigger scher." They said that before Prohibition white women could not travel safely because of drunken black beasts. A COMPARISON of the lynching statistics the seven years before Prohibition and the seven years after would be interesting. Certainly some of the most horrible lynchings in the South have occurred since Prohibition, without any accusation that the victims were drunk at the time they supposedly committed their offence. The South seized upon Prohibition as upon everything else—as a chance to deprive the Negro of something.
PARIS. "MY NEGRO uncle is the
son of my grandmother, and the brother of my father. At the same time I hasten to declare that I am a white woman. My genealogy is bi-colored only by accident, but what an accident!"
So begins one of the latest novels on the Negro to appear here. The title is "Blanche et Noir" (White Woman and Black Man) and the author is Mme. Louise Faure-Favier, one of the best-known of the French writers. Mme. Faure-Favier has handled her subject so delightfully, with such ingenuousness and such subtle humor, that we are inclined to think that even an American publisher might be induced to handle an English translation of her book.
The principal character of the story is Jeanne Lortace-Rieux, who comes from a good middle-class French family, and who was born the same year that her grandmother, Malvina, presents a son to the "Negro Samba-Luobe" in far-off Senegal. Samba-Luobe had come from Africa to visit the Paris Exposition of 1889. Mme. Malvina was dining with friends on the first floor of the Eiffel Tower when she saw a Negro, well-dressed, and speaking enough French to be able to order a meal, seated at the next table, gazing at her. Coming from a little town far from Paris, he was the first black man Mme. Malvina had ever seen.
When the waiter came to take the black man's order, the latter had said, looking at Mme. Malvina, "Dring me the same kind of wine that the woman with the blue eyes ordered." An acquaintance had been struck up on the spot, an invitation to climb the rest of the Tower followed, and all ended in Mme. Malvina's "slamming the door of the house where she had spent twenty-seven years of wisdom and self-denial" and running away to Senegal with Samba-Laobe.

Writer Says Dictionary Compiled by Missionaries Is Not the

Nows.
Dear Sir:
I write this so as to correct the
mistake made by you in a recent
issue anent the publication of an
African dictionary by Mr. and
Mrs. Rusklin, missionaries in the
Bolgian Congo.
You asserted that this dictionary
was the first one "of an African

Mr. Edison is not only misleading,
but gross mistake.
As early as 1565 books have
been published in the Ilo, Yoruba
and Hausa dialects in West Africa
and as late as 1519 various
editions of dictionaries have been
published in Lagoas and London

only five—she perceives that there is some mystery in her family which seems divided into two camps. To add to her mystery, she resembles Mme. Malvina, and becomes strikingly so as the years go by. She hears her grandmother's name spoken about from time to time in whispers, but one day, while having her first train ride, she heard it spoken aloud.
Louise, too, becomes more and more interested in Negroes, and reads books about Africa. And, as if to make matters worse, an incident happens when she is 10, on the day of her first communion, that she finds it impossible to explain. She is with two little girl friends when one of them suddenly asks the question: "Whom would you rather marry, a Jew or a Negro?"
Louise realized at once that her little friend had raised the question to embarrass her and her friend.

The above dialectic dictionaries and publications relate only to the British West African colonies, not to mention the late German Cameroons, Dahomey, Togoland or Senegambia, Dakar, Khartoum and Uganda, which countries have publications both sacred and literary, published in Paris, Berlin and London by African and European lexicographers.

Both girls insisted that in that case neither would marry, but said the little tormentor: "Suppose they would cut off your head if you don't marry?"
"What, have my head cut off? Better marry than death." Jeanne replied: "I would marry the Negro."
At this the other two girls began to shout: "She has said it! She has said it! Jeanne says that she would marry a Negro," and to Jeanne's parents and all over the town they carried the news, much to the discomfiture of poor Jeanne, who, left alone, retired to her garret to read more about Negroes and Africa.
Jeanne, more and more interested about Negroes, makes little Negro dolls and plays at being in Africa, whereupon her parents accuse her of playing at being a Negro, whereupon she confesses to the priest, who promptly absolves her. The fact that she has a Negro uncle is also used by some of her girl friends to torment her. She, however, continues her studies about Negroes and defends them. In a cathedral not far from her home she sees "in the middle of the transcept the celebrated Black Virgin crowned with diamonds and dressed in brocade and gold."
"Why," she asks her uncle, "is the Sacred Virgin black as a Negro woman?" Her uncle replies that the Black Virgin was brought from Palestine by the king, St. Louis, and that there are many other Black Virgins as in Velay, Auvergne and Forez; that there are also the Black Virgins of Maurlac, Vassivierre, de Murat, d Aurilinc, D'Orcival.
Then comes the great war, and Jeanne is a journalist. She sees "black soldiers of a Senegalese regiment." She interviews a young black officer whose face is disfigured by a shell, and who speaks French. Croix de Guerre black officers convalescing proudly wearing their Croix de Guerre. With them are several pretty young Bretonnes, and she "was not surprised to see these beautiful blonde girls with arms around the ncks of these great Negroes, whispering endearing words to them."

"BLACKBIRDS" O. K.
To the Editor,
The Amsterdam News:
Dear Sir:
With reference to Miss Blanche
Watson's letter in The Amsterdam
News of September 26, I reply:
I have had the pleasure of seeing
the musical comedy, "Blackbirds
of 1828" at the Liberty Theatre, but did
not see at all any indencency on the
part of the girls in dancing their

I am colored and for a good many years past have had the opportunity of being behind some very fine revues that were presented on Broadway. If what I saw during that time does not convince me that the colored actresses are not in the lead morally, then I don't know what morality means; neither do I know how to define it.

FIRST VOTER
This One Has Decided to Vote for Hoover Because Democrats Give No Encouragement.
To the Editor of The Amsterdam News.
Dear Sir:
Having read the editorial "Cutting Off Your Nose," I wish to state that it contains facts that every Negro voter should know. Daily I hear Negroes say "I am for Smith and liquor." They do not seem to understand that the president alone has no power to make changes in any law.
I am casting my first vote in the coming election. It shall be for the man who will do most for the Negro race. That man is Herbert Hoover. I believe that the Negro will do well to hold with the Republican party until the Democrats give some encouragement. The day has not yet come when the Negro can become a part of a political party that lit-

AFTER THE RECENT FLORIDA HURRICANE a general funeral service was held for the dead, which numbered 1,300. No, that is a mistake; two general funerals were held, one for the white dead, the other for the Negro dead. Evidently the white people believe there are two heavens, one for them and one for Negroes. CAN THEY BELIEVE that when all those souls stand before their Maker there will be any discrimination? They may be sure that when the souls bound for the other place reach their destination there will be none. Hell has no white fires or black fires; they are all red, and in the eyes of satan one color of fuel is as good as another.

Fuel Is Fuel
Finally, Jeanne, curious to know how the young white girls felt, went to them and asked the same question that had been put to herself: "Which youd you rather marry, a Jew or a Negro?"
One replied without surprise: "Why the finest of the two?" Another said: "On condition that it is good-looking, rich and well-bred."
Whereupon Louise meditates: "These young people are right in not embarrassing themselves with prejudices of race and color. They will love a Negro if the Negro has a fine appearance and his flesh moves their flesh.
As to Jeanne, herself, one day while in the cemetery in which her ancestors are buried she cones face to face with a handsome young Negro. It is her uncle. She kisses him affectionately and walks off with him, and through the village circulates the news that Jeanne is walking with a Negro, adding, "even a handsome Negro." Her uncle, who is wealthy, tells her of his mother and the sacrifice she made in going to Africa, and the good works she did there, whereupon Louise adds: "The women will one day undertake the fine role of mediator, such as was that of Malvina Rioux in 1800 in the Senegal still undivided in the heart of their beaker and finer hearts of the civilizers. They are the ones who will take the initiative in wiping out that terrible antagonism of race, and the ones who will prevent the men, after having fought over territory, religion and money, to kill one another over color of skin.
"It will be sufficient for them to decree that the black equals the white, and that beauty is to be found as much in one as in the other; that the brain of a black equals that of a white, and that there is but one humanity."
Louise finally leaves for Africa with her uncle, and as to whether she marries a Negro is left to the reader's imagination.
All in all "Blanche et Noir" is one of the best books that has appeared here on the Negro in a good many years. It is to be hoped that there will be an English edition.

Political Questions
Q.-What salary did Hoover receive as Secretary of Commerce? As food administrator?
A.-As Secretary of Commerce he received a stipulation annually the salary paid all cabinet officers. As food administrator, since law forbade Government service without remuneration, he served with a salary of $1 a year.
Q.-Why has the Maine election national attendance?
A.-Although Maine is almost invariably a Republican state, it has proved in the past a very reliable barometer of the "drift" of political sentiment in the nation. In past elections in Maine has generally been followed elsewhere. Conversely, an abnormally small Republican vote in the Maine gubernatorial election has been followed by Democratic victory in the Presidential race.
Q.-What was Hoover's first public office?
A. If you mean an elective office, he has held none. His first governmental post was that of Food Administrator during the war, to which he was appointed by President Johnson first as public servant, then as a deterred voluntarily at the outbreak of the war, in finding transportation and funds for Americans stranded in Europe.
Q. Has Al Smith carried New York in all his campaigns for Governor?
A. No. He was defended in 1920 by Nathan L. Miller. Republican.
Q. Is the electoral college's vote cast by state units?
A. Yes. However, the direct vote is for Presidential election, and if one representing a minority party obtains a plurality, its vote in the College is independent of the state unit.
FLORIDA HURRICANE aided for the dead, which numbered; two general funerals were the other for the Negro dead. Believe there are two heavens, roes. That when all those souls stand be any discrimination? They souls bound for the other place will be none. Hell has no white red, and in the eyes of satan another.
Asthma and Hay Fever
THERE is probably no dis more suffering and anxie tor, than asthma. It is attacks of difficult breathing chest, due to a spasm of the b ing through them.
THERE is probably no disease so common which brings more suffering and anxiety, both to the patient and doctor, than asthma. It is characterized by almost sudden attacks of difficult breathing and loud wheezing from the chest, due to a spasm of the bromchial tubes and the air passing through them.
The specific cause of the disease is at this time not definitely known, but it is believed to be due to a sensitivity of the body to certain substances, as some articles of food, dust, pollen, etc., each individual suffering from the condition, to some with one of the groups. Reduced colds and debilitated states may lead up to this type of body sensitivity.
It has been observed that some patients who seem never to be free of this alliment go for months at a time without an attack after they have had their attention directed to some faulty daily habit.
Hay fever is a disease very much like asthma from the point of view of individual sensitivity to a foreign substance. As I write
The problem of prevention and treatment is no easy tack. One cannot always move to locations where they may be free from it, hence some form of treatment must be instituted. The skin test to find out just what is causing the attacks is done extensively at some of the hospitals in the city. Although the cases cured are not in the majority, I feel that everyone suffering from asthma should be thoroughly tested out. Many a night spent on one's elbows gasping for breath could be avoided if help were sought at the onset of the very first symptoms. It is more difficult to stop an attack-after it has been going on for several hours.
A new drug, which is the extract of an Oriental plant and is not habit forming, is now used with much success. It obviates the use of the needle as its administration by mouth is effective. The use of vaccine injections will often reduce the frequency and severity of the attacks, though a prophylactic agent is present. These spells are often inflicted by indigestion, constipation, sudden chilling of the body and overcongested homes. It would be well for individuals suffering from asthma to pay special attention to these simple hygienic preca

BOOK CHAT by MARY WHITE OVINGTON
"A BIBLIOGRAPHY OF THE NEGRO IN AFRICA AND AMERICA," Compiled by Monroe N. Work. Published by The H. W. Wilson Co., 960 University avenue, New York City. Price $16.00.
THOSE who do not read Book Chat are not likely to know of this enormously important publication until they go some day to the library to look up a reference and see the volume put before them. Once seeing it, however, each will want to examine it further. For here is an exhaustive list of material on the Negro, magazine articles as well as books.
"The purpose of this bibliography," the introduction by Anson Phelps Stokes reads, "is to furnish an accurate and comprehensive handbook of the titles and authors of valuable books, pamphlets and articles from periodicals on the Negro in Africa and America. . . . The author has not tried to include all known printed works on the subjects named. Indeed, he has eliminated more titles than he has included, so that the book is a select reference bibliography on the Negro, with more than 17,000 entries covering the most worthwhile publications in different languages issued before 1923."
Mr. Work began publishing bibliographical material in the first Negro Year Book, 1912. In 1921 the Carnegie Corporation made a grant to the Department of Records and Research of Tuskegee and he was able to go on from this beginning to the comprehensive volume just published.
Interest in his work became international; he went to Europe and visited the great libraries of England and the Continent, enlarging especially his titles on Africa and its culture. The number of his titles grew and at length he has given us a reference book that will be known throughout the world. The book is clearly arranged, easy to find one's way in. There is a Table of Contents and an Index of Authors. The titles are so arranged that the book is itself an index and it is a simple matter to find material on whatever subject one may want.
National Urban League Increases Fellowships
The National Urban League. 17 Madison avenue, announces that three additional fellowships have been added to the total number maintained by the league at leading schools of social work. These are the Julius Rosenwald Fund Fellowships of $1,200 each and have been awarded to Norman R. Eolden, C. Felton Gayles and Wiley A. Hull. Mr. Bolden, who has been assigned to the Graduate School of Social Administration of the University of Chicago, is a graduate of the University of Pittsburgh. B.

Hay fever is a disease very
much like asthma from the point
of view of individual sensitivity
to a foreign substance. As I write
this article thousands of sufferers
are just ending a period of continuous sneezing, running, burning eyes and nose, and a general feeling of discomfort—all due to fall hay fever.
The condition occurs in the spring, summer and fall. Every season the victims of this malady become more numerous without any apparent cause. Among a large variety of pollen, the giant and dwarf rugweed, timothy and golden rod seem to affect a greater number in these parts.
Just as in asthma there are large clinics making tests to determine the type of pollen to which those suffering will react. Section into the skin of extracts from these pollen will often prevent these attacks if taken about two weeks before the hay fever season begins.
During the course of the disease these injections will markedly reduce the severity of the symptoms.
All physicians are readily supplied with these pollen extracts, and even in cases without tests the administration of a combined extract gives satisfactory results. The use of drugs and highly advertised patent medicines in this disease is of very little value.
