Annapolis? Record Good. A report showing that 533 colored persons owned their homes in Baltimore, in 1910, that 54 colored persons owned their homes in Annapolis, and that for the state of Maryland, 695 colored persons owned their own homes, was issued by the Bureau of Census recently. A feature of this report is that it was gotten out by colored government employees under the efficient direction of three colored clerks, Robert Felham, Charles Hall, and William Jennifer. According to the published figures, one colored person in every 91 in Baltimore owns his home, in Philadelphia is one colored person in every 92. In other cities the figures vary, for one person in every 46 colored persons owns his home in Washington, D. C., in Annapolis, Md. It is one in every 28, Richmond and New Port News, Va. one in 27, and in Winchester, Kentucky, one in every 1 colored person owns his home. This report lends some of our previously held theories in the head, for while the largest number of homes in Baltimore were Negroes is in the South because $5 percent of people live there, but only one person in twenty owns his home in that section, whereas in the North, as a whole, one person in 18 owns his home, and in the west one person in 12. Two thirds of the homes owned in Maryland are without encumbrance and 33,000 rent homes and farms in the state. In the counties, Anne Arundel has the largest colored population in the largest number of colored homes, but 715 farm homes are while in Prince Georges $23 colored persons own their homes. In Dorchester the number is $27 colored persons who own their own homes. Somerset county beats all the other in the state for 1139 homes leading 719 farm homes are owned in this county by colored people on the basis of thrift and home ownership Somerset county not only leads the rest of the state, but makes a far better showing than Baltimore city. duns away or shamefully abandons or delivers up any fort, post, camp guard or other command which it is his duty to defend or induce others to do the like, or cast away his arms and ammunition or quits his post or colors to plunder or pillage or by any means, whatever occasions false alarms in camp garrison or quarters shall suffer death or such other punishment as a court-martial may direct." Notice of the court-martial of Lieut. Cheers was given, in last week's Afternoon, American but it was not commanded until tiberean knew Vigil and other military Methodist ministers who were concerned chiefly about Lieut. Cheers, conferred with Mr. Emmet J. Scott in Washington with the idea of having President Wilson and Secretary of War Eaker review the case carefully before the sentence of execution was carried out. Germans Feared Colored Guards Germans Feared Colored Guards Respected Their Ability To Use Bayonet, and "Showed Speed." Stopped Work When Colored Soldiers Began to Sing. In the field artillery training camp at Coquidan, France where the units of the Dite Division, now stationed at Camp Gordon, received their finishing touches, there was a large number of German and American soldiers at camp in stockade. The Southern men were proud of the manner in which Negro soldiers of the South guarded the Hun prisoners. "There wasn't a single chance in the world for a prisoner to get away as long as a Georgia Negro, equipped with a bayonet, was on the job," said one of the Savannah men in the Irish. The Negro guards made no bones about their desire to be given the opportunity of seeing what 'shoof bayonet fighting felt like, and the German prisoners feared them worse than they did anything on earth. When a Georgia Negro guard ordered Fritzie, at the point of charge, to taunt wagon and show some speed" Fritz gave an exhibition of perfect obedience never witnessed by officers of the Kaiser. "Three or four hundred Hun prisoners were often assigned to a single guard and never one attempted to get away. In the first place they were well fed and housed and were much better off than they were in the German army, and in the second place they had a moral dread of cold steel and a tremendous respect for the Negro soldier's ability to use it." "While fearing the American Negro-soldiers worse than they did the Kaiser, the Fritzies were deeply interested in the singing of the colored troops. When a file of singing colored soldiers marched by where the Hun prisoners were working industry was suspended while the prisoners listened in amazement." VICTIRS HUSBAND OVERSEAS Washington, Jan. 16.---Lawrence Brandon, father of Valentine N. Brandon, whose wife was the victim of the murder for which the Maryland Court of Appeals today determined John Snowden, the Annapolis Negro, should hang. this afternoon expressed gratification at the Court's action. Valentine Brandon, the young husband of Snowden's victim, is now with the American Army overseas. He is a member of the One Hundred and Thirty-fifth Machine-gun Battalion of the Thirty-seventh Division in LAURELS FOR 325 SIGNAL BATTALION Only Colored Signal Unit In American Army Shows Rare Skill Under Fire. Croix de Guerre For The 8th Illinois Regmt. By Ralph W. Tyler Accredited Representative of The Committee on Public Information. With the American Army in France. La Mans, Dec. 20.—One of the units of the American army to arrive here enroute for commemoration to America that has made good effort having the gambit is the 326th Field Signal Battalion of the 92nd Army Division, the only colored signal unit in the American Army. While this battalion has not had to occupy front lint trenches; make raids for prisoners, or march in huth- formation, into his encampment, and nobody has supposed that it did not have a dangerous, and a very dangerous duty to perform. The boys of this battalion had to string the wires for telegraphic and telephonic connections at times when the enemy guns were requested, then, so, they respected their then into situations fully as dangerous as combat units. This battalion is composed of all young colored men, save the Lieutenant-Colonel, Major, and two other officers, and few exceptions, with few exceptions, college or high school boys—not a few of them experts in radio and electric engineering, and those who were not experts in the work when the enemy proficient men. Major Spencer, now Lieutenant Colonel, who was responsible for the formation of this unit, was firm in the belief that colored boys could make good, and he has remained with it long enough to experience his belief becoming a realization. After arriving at Brest June 19th, the battalion proceeded to Vitrey, and from that town began a four-day hike to Bourbonnes-le Bains, a distance of more than 20 miles, before he arrived for a few days, to Voissey, and at Voissey the boys got their first taste of what was to be, later, their daily duties. Here the radio company received its quota of the latest type of 'French instruments, a battery supply of telephones and wire was issued to companies B. and C. Here too, the infantry Signal Platoons of the battalion joined the outfit and shared in the training. The first test of real courage given the men, in their first introduction, in fighting, in addition to stringing wires, and sending and receiving radio messages, came on the afternoon of September 27th when a party of liaison men, including the Colonel and Lieut. Herbert, latter being colored, sent the Colonel C. and at the suggestion of a French soldier, turned to the left. They soon found themselves beyond their lines, and directly in front of a German machine gun nest. The Colonel divided his men in half, advanced on the enemy's position. This sortie resulted in the Signal boys capturing eight German prisoners and two machine guns, but the attack caused the loss of Corporal Charles E. Four days later, during general advance, Sergeant E. Moody of the Battalion, was mortally wounded ed while at his post. Boykin was killed outright, while Sergeant Moody died in the hospital from wounds received—these being the first two of the Signal troops to make the sacrifice. On the 10th of October the 92nd Division took over the Marbache sector, relieving the 167th French Division, and here, also, the 325th Field Signal Battalion took over all existing lines of communication and installed new lines, and maintained connections between the various units of the 92nd Division. This was no small duty, when it is remembered that an army "sector" extends over a wide area of many square miles and in front of 100 cities and towns. The Marbache sector was an active front, and time and time again did these boys go ahead repairing lines, establishing new communications under shell fire, with no thought of personal danger—inspired only on the sight of the Corsican man—get connected through at any cost, but get it through. On the morning of November 10th when the Second Army launched its attack on the famous Hindenberg line before Metz, the 92nd Division, which I was with during this big attack, was holding the line of Vanderres-St. Michel-Xon-Norry. During the entire engagement, which lasted from 7 o'clock the time of the 10th to 11 A.M. the 11th, entire Signal Corps functioned splendidly, and as one man, keeping up Continued on Page 4. THE MARK OF THE AMERICAN HUN—BLOT IT OUT TWO LYNCHINGS LAST WEEK The records of History Will Show That the United States fought valiantly for Democracy in Europe. Wounded Soldier Who Lost A Leg In Battle Tells How White Officers Treated Boys Of the Now Famous 92nd Division "The French treated the colored troops fine but the Americans carried their same old prejudice over to France," was the statement made by Private M. Clark, of Philadelphia. Private Clark, who is a member of the 368th Infantry is now stationed at the General Hospital No. 2, Fort McKenny, recovering from the loss of his right leg in the September drive. In relating his experiences in France to representative of the Afro-American, he told how the colored and white American troops were separated. They seldom if ever camped in the same town. When the 368th Infantry arrived in one French town the people made so much over them that the major, a white man issued an order that no colored soldiers were to be seen talking to the French people, male or female. The soldiers obeyed this mandate but the French townsmen did not, therefore the regiment was moved out into the suburbs of the town and made to live in, tents, whereas in the town they had occupied the houses of the French people. According to Private Clark, even this separation failed to keep the French people away from the Americans; as a result an order came about the last part of August that the entire regiment woul dreturn to America. Then the September drive was launched by Marshal Foch and so many of the white Americans were killed that this order was recinded and the 368th Infantry was sent to the front. Private Clark says that many of the boys have been killed and a very large number of them have been wounded. SUES CONTRACTOR FOR $50,000 DAMAGES New York, Jan. 26—Annie Mills brought suit for $50,000 in the Supreme Court against Isaac E. Jersey of Bellevue, Long Island, a wealthy contracting and constructing engineer. She charges him with breech of contract in failing to support her two minor children until they reach their majority. According to the Mills woman, for sixteen years, Jersey, who is married and has two children, has allowed her two servants, a liaisonus and all the other luxuries enjoyed by wealthy women. He had purchased her a home, on Grand avenue, Brooklyn, which through fraud, he got her to transfer to his wife, and then began to charge her rent. After all the evidence had been taken, the jury brought in a verdict in favor of Miss Mills. Sections of the 376th, 369th, 370th, and 372d Regiments Assigned By War Department for Early Convoy To America. Washington, D. C., Jan. 20.—An announcement is made through the office of Emmett J. Scott, Special Assistant to the Secretary of War, that the War Department has assigned for early convoy from France to America the following units of colored troops, or sections thereof, as herein described: part of 32d Division ("The Buffaloes," part of 32d Division) headquarters and first battalion, 49 officers and 1,236 men; headquarters company, supply company, and third battalion, 49 officers and 1,315 men. 369th Infantry (formerly 15th New York Regiment) headquarters supply company, 2nd battalion and sanitary detachment, 56 officers and 1,202 men. 370th Infantry, (including the former 8th Illinois Regiment), headquarters, 2nd and 3rd battalions, detachment, 68 officers and 1,555 men. 372nd Infantry, (including the District of Columbia National Guard, etc.), less 2nd battalion, 65 officers and 1,855 men. 372nd Infantry, medical detachment and second battalion complete, 22 officers and 683 men. This will be welcome intelligence to the relatives and friends of these galant warriors for freedom and democracy throughout the land. In many of the larger centers of colonized Africa, they are already underway to give them a warm reception upon their arrival home. These colored soldiers, to a man, have given an admirable account of themselves on some of the most notable battle-fields of France and elsewhere, and there are they are to receive at the hands of grateful and well-served Republic. BISHOP SMITH MAKES STRONG STATEMENT Detroit, Mich. Jan. 17.—Bishop C. S. Smith of the A. M. E. Church closed a strong expression of his view on conditions here and abroad. He said: "The story from Paris which we recount the activities of Dr. K. R. Moton, head of the Toskegue Institute, among american colonists, not to be regarded as pointing to misconduct on their part if Dr. Moton went to France to bolster the morale of the colonies, nor not founded upon necessity. 'I am free to admit that the colored troops now overseas, when they return to the colonies, have a same degree of self-resistance and degrade great self-restraint. The white people of the south will need to exercise the same degree of self-resistance and degrade great self-restraint. The revival of the Ku-Kluus Clan in Georgia and Tennessee is not only deplorable but points to the possibility of violent race conflicts in those states in the near future." Odd Fellows Differences Aired In Court and Apparently _Morris Comes Off A Philadelphia, January 17—Efforts of the insurgent faction of Odd Fellows to meet with the regulars in annual meeting of the sub-committee of management had their sequel today. Common Pleas Court No. 3, in equity session, Judge W. C. Ferguson, at 4:15 o'clock this afternoon refused to issue an injunction against Grand Master Edward H. Morris and the other members of the Sub-Committee of Management, dling philippe another thereof with him to restrain them from continuing in and exercising their functions of the offices held by them; and also declined to appoint a receiver to take over and manage all properties and assets of the order. This was the court's reply to the bill in equity filed by a number of individuals, who claimed that they had been elected "last September as members of the Sub-Committee of Management and were being kept out by Grand Master Morris and others associated with him. Judge Ferguson in setting forth his reasons for so refusing and declining said in substance: "As the court sees the matter, it appears to be a dispute as to who, shall hold the offices—Grand Master Morris and those who are now in, or those who want to get in, but are on the outside. "I will not" continued the judge, issue any such infunction, because it will leave the great organization with our official guidance and directorship and will cause it to cease functioning—and that ought not to be, as the hundreds of thousands of members should be protected in their interests. The Judge made it plain throughout his discourse that the membership of such a large, magnificent and worthy organization, should not be made the victims of persons rapelled by profit by seeking, to hold its offices. LYNCHERS SURPISED FOUR ARE KILLED Blakely, Ga., Jan. 17—In an attempt to lynch a prosperous farmer here, four white men were killed, Bryants, a prosperous colored family, lived in Blakely, Early County, Georgia for a period of forty years. Highowers, a white family had lived in the same neighborhood. In this white family was a girl about 20 years of age, who had become infiltrated with Henry Bryants a younger son of the Bryant family. Bryant resented her affections. A little later he was drilled into the army. Returning home on Thanksgiving he spent a jolly time with his family. On Saturday night Thanksgiving, the family was sent around the heart; when there came a loud knock on the door. In answer to the query "who's there?" came the reply "Don't matter a damn, open up." Becoming suspicious firearms were secured and the door opened. Outside were a crowd of white men. Taking no chances, the two boys fired into the crowd, killing four. After a battle of three hours their ammunition gave out and one of the boys was captured and lynched. DR MOTON HOME Tustigse, Ala., Jan. 21—Dr. Robert R. Moton landed in Boston on Tuesday and arrived here today in time for the second session of the Farmers' Conference. It is reported that he has been asked to return to the Peace Conference as soon as possible. On his 1500 mile trail, secured soldiers, Moton travelled in an auto from General Pershing's headquarters, usually with escort. Other members of the party were Lester Walton, Nathan Hunt and Thomas J. Jones. BILLY SUNDAY IN RICHMOND Richmond, Va.—Colored people of this city are absolutely barred from the meetings held by Billy Sunday in the City Auditorium. Mr. Sunday is worried over the matter and announced that he wishes to arrange a date when he will speak to the colorado governor. The outcome will be watched with interest. Nothing so shocked the people of the state of Maryland in general and the people of Baltimore in particular as the decision of the Court of Appeals in the case of John Snover, which was numbered in the October term. All of the judges of the court were present and the opinion was delivered by Judge Burke. The first phase of the case answered in the decision, which was delivered last Thursday, was as to whether or not the appeal was taken in time. On the basis of the Court of Appeals answered: "It appears that the appeal was taken in time, and that the exceptions were prepared by the counsel for the accused and submitted to the judge on two occasions within the time limited by previous orders regularly passed. 'This was all that was required of counsel, and under the circumstances stated, it cannot be held that delay in submitting exceptions or transmitting the record to the judge was appropriate or his counsel. We said, in Wilmer vs. Baltimore, 118 Md. 328, that in cases at law, it is the practice of this state in the event of disagreement between counsel, for the trial judge to determine the facts and to dismiss the appeal will therefore be dened." will therefore be denounced." By this means Snowden won the right to have the Court of Appeal or not the lower court in Annapolis had granted him a fair trial. NO ERROR FOUND In rendering its opinion, the Court of Appeals or not the lower court in Annapolis had granted him a fair trial. Snowden Weeps Protests Innocence Disappointed when told of decision of Court of Appeals Governor To Fix Date Of Execution This Week...Petitions from State Wait_ on Manifestation of Annapolis Public Opinion Annapolis, Md., January 22—Protesting his innocence and further emphasizing it by saying that If God could come down to Annapolis, he would say it the same thing. John Bellis was not moved from this position when informed by Sheriff Bellis of the decision of the Court of Appeals in his case last week. If Bellis expected to see Snowden break down, lose his nerve and confess, he was mistaken. In reply to the sheriff's announcement that he must prepare to meet his God, and that he should tell the truth of the matter, Snowden answered amid his tears, that he knew nothin about it. So far as is known there has been no organized effort throughout the State to ask Governor Harrington to commute the sentence of Life imprisonment. On the legal side, the opinion of the Court of Appeals is regarded as final and the only hope of saving Snowden's life at all rests in the executive clemency of the Governor. Anticipating petitions from white and colored people throughout the State, Governor Harrington made public his view that he is opposed to capital punishment except for rape. The governor is reported to have read the testimony in the case and to have become convinced of Snowen's gulit. DATE NOT FIXED YET. No action by the Governor in fixing the date for Snowen's execution can be taken until the findings of the court at Towson reach Annapolis and are sent to the Governor. He will probably release the papers this week and the date of execution some time in February, unless the sentiment of the white and colored people of Annapolis and in the State shows itself favorable toward sparing Snowen's life and commuting the sentence. Rev. Benjamin Holt has taken the place of Rev. J. A. Briscoe as spiritual advisor. RANK DISCRIMINATION AT BARTLETT-HAYWOOD PLANT Stories of the rank discrimination against colored employees in the Bartler Haywood Company's Pork Plant are made public for the first time thru the discharge of George W. Perry, 2029 Drud Hill avenue, ww. discharged from the Company's employ for circulating question asking that colored employees get the same bonus that white employees are getting. According to his statement, Perry went to work in June last when thou- was a shortage of help everywhere. He did the tasks assigned to him faithfully, and after sometime inquired of the several foremen superintendents, if he got a bonus as white employees all around him were given. Reply came that colored employees were not given any bonus by the company. Thinking about the matter, a white, Perry decided the Company was using government work, as that all the employees had a right to receive the bonus, black or white, while all the men had a right to pay 155 out of the 183 men in his section to sign it. The petition was sent in Wednesday and on Saturday for the first time some of the men got the bonus. From then on some weeks we got a bonus, and some weeks we did not. It seemed to Perry that some of the white Jolks in authority were getting the bonus money that was due the colored employees. He said on one occasion when a colored man was leaving because he was taking the colored white man took him into a private room and made up 4 to give to him. This man was then transferred to another shop, where he got his bonus regularly. Perry was discharged recently and the superintendent told him, he was too much trouble, and had gotten thru his petition for bonus. *Colored employees at the Harriet* *Haywood Plant: subscribed $10000* for Liberty Bond Company. Perry said for the winning bid did his bit for the winning of the war.

Dear daughter, let me miss you As the hours go slowly by But beyond this vale well greet you On her hands, my dear daughter. Gone from earth, yes, gone forever Tear dimmed eyes will gaze in vain I shall hear her voice, oh, never Nevermore on earth again I will hear her voice, dear daughter. Lonesome, lonesome, every spot Listening for her voice till weary Weary, for I hear it not. I will hear her voice, graveyard And sit beside my daughter's grave Then I think I hear her crying "Weep not, dear ones, we shall meet By her loving parents. MR. and MRS. EDWARD PARKER PARKER---In loving remembrance of my devoted sister Bernice, who died one year ago, January 19, 1918.

Where you will find eternal rest. A happy home we once enjoyed with death. Death lins left a vault chair. Which never can be filled. PARKER--In loving remembrance of Bernice E. Parker, who died one year ago. God in his wisdom thought it best, to take our loved one from us, to bear token of the earth she, our mother, on her hand. Each hour has come to us anew, With bitter senses of loss, O God in mercy pity us, O God in the face of the cross. Gone from the best of her days. Bright in girlhood's bloom.

The jurisdiction of this court is final, and friends of Snowden must concur in the decision rendered. It is noted however that the opinion states expressly that the Appellate Court did not sit to determine the guilt or innocence of the accused, but whether or not the procedure of the lower court was in strict accordance with the law. The very thing that the Court of Appeals could not pass on is the thing that interests the white and colored friends of justice in this State. Snowden's counsel is reported to have said that he took the case not for the fees—and he has gotten no fees—but because he believed in his heart and with his conscience in Snowden's innocence, and that not enough evidence had been brought forward to convict him of the crime. It is not procedure so much as guilt or innocence of the accused that has been the chief concern of many persons in the State, who have vitally interested themselves in the case. Snowden's continued protestations of innocence under the most discouraging conditions, the fact that Mary Perkins could have been influenced by the $500 reward, and the unwarranted transfer of the case from Annapolis to Towson, these are the things that have caused the public to contribute time and money in fighting this case thru the courts. Snowden is not Isaacs, and if he were, sentiment would see to it that he were hanged and hanged quickly. As soon as the Governor sets the date of the execution, public sentiment will manifest itself as to the belief in his innocence OWNING HOMES less surprise a good man than a thousand colored and their own homes, and very ninety-one owns it he It will doubtless surprise a good many people to learn that in 1910 less than a thousand colored people in the city of Baltimore owned their own homes, and that only one colored person in every ninety-one owns a home. In this respect Baltimore is no better and no worse than Philadelphia. New York and other large cities, and it is a striking thing to note that the percentage of Negroes who own their own homes is higher in the North than in the South and highest of all in the West. Taking the country as a whole is where the ownership of homes by the colored people stands in the most favorable light. In 1900, 1,833,000 homes in the United States were owned by colored folk. In 1910, this number had been increased to 2,173,000. By far the larger number of families rent their homes instead of owning them. In fact, three times as many people rent their homes as own homes. Nevertheless statistics for the past thirty years show that the percentage of owned homes steadily increases from year to year, while the percentage of rented homes steadily decreases. Without doubt the period of high wages and migration during the past three years will cause a material change in these statistics by 1920. The practicable impossibility of renting homes in the large cities is one factor alone that is making many persons buy property, who would not otherwise do so, and the high wages make it possible for persons to buy through building associations and keep up the payments. One of the first questions asked by judges and magistrates of persons brought before them charged with crime is "Do you own property" or "do you own your own home?" The citizen who can answer this question affirmatively stands a much better show than one who answers negatively. Not only in times of trouble, but in other times, the community looks up to the man who owns his home, or some other property, as a steady, thrifty and dependable neighbor. The late Booker T. Washington, in his own inimitable way preached over and over again to his people "get property, get property, get property" as a means of winning the respect of the nation. A glance at these statistics, and a knowledge of what has taken place in recent years brings the conviction that all sections of the country are striving to follow Mr. Washington's advice and to catch up with Winchester. Kentucky, where one out of every seven colored persons owns his own home. "LEGISLATION CANNOT BE CARRIED OUT" Cardinal Gibbons, in an interview with a reporter of the Baltimore American, makes the above assertion with reference to enforcement of the prohibition amendment recently passed. We fully agree with the Cardinal, as to the impossibility of making any law, human or divine, which will not be broken by somebody, as long as men are human. Perhaps the Lord of us all was aware of this fact, for the first two human beings on earth were violators of His law, and men have been violators of all laws ever since. It may not occurred to Moses when he came down from the mountain with the tablets of the Ten Commandments, that they would be broken, but he found it so during all the forty years he had dealings with the people he was leading God gave us the Ten Commandments; men have extended them in every generation by additional laws, but from the very fact that we have jails, penitentiaries and other houses of detention, only further emphasizes the fact that no matter how great the penalties are made for breaking laws, men will break them. It has been contended that the prohibition laws carry with them the right of search, and that the sanctity of the home will be invaded—that the personal liberty of the people will be encroached upon. Is this not true of all criminal laws upon the statute books? If a man is suspected of larceny, or of obtaining goods under false pretenses, are not his premises searched for the suspected goods? No man's house is searched unless there is a suspicion on the part of the authorities that crime of some kind is concealed therein. There are thousands of people in this city whose homes have never been invaded by the authorities looking for evidence of crime. No man's house will be searched unless there is suspicion attached thereto. We have no means of knowing just how much the newspapers are getting out of the slush fund of the "wets" except from the persistence with which, in the face of the overpowering evidence of the people against it, they seem to hang on to the wet idea. It would not be possible for the legislatures of more than three-fourths of the States to have approved of the amendment, had there not been a preponderance of their constituents favoring it behind them. As a rule, politicians do not act that way. It is safe proposition that they only did what the people behind them wanted done. After more than four thousand years, men still commit murder, men still lie, men still commit adultery, men still steal, men still swear, men still break the Sabbath, and men still covet their neighbors' goods, and we are strongly of the opinion that for many hundreds of years to come men will still be breaking the laws of God, and coming under condemnation of the same. So that if men are going to stop making laws because men are going to break them, then we have arrived at a most unfortunate period in the world's history. We have known the crime and poverty which have come from strong drink; may we not have an opportunity to judge what the community will be and look like without it. NEW ENGLAND WOMEN Mary J. Buchanan, white, recently probated, makes pro- fess the education of "deservi- color, of respectable nor- ment of physics they may el- capabilities." States that those receiving the b led at the Massachusetts Insti- tute best school of its kind in a man further provides that the young men who may desire anity must be decided upon by o or more of them. Old New England stock that fast dying out. Nearly all outh, with its large number of such persons, who sacrificed th to the black belt. Now and a sis to mind what an enormous the women of New England. The will of Mary J. Buchanan, white, of New Bedford, Massachusetts, recently probated, makes provision for providing means toward the education of "deserving and ambitious young men of color, of respectable northern parentage, in whatever department of physics they may elect, as being best adapted to their capabilities." She designates that those receiving the benefit of her will shall be educated at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, probably the best school of its kind in the country. Mrs. Buchanan further provides that the fitness and competency of the young men who may desire to become recipients of this bounty must be decided upon by thoroughly reliable judges—two or more of them. The good old New England stock that the Mrs. Buchanan represented, is fast dying out. Nearly all of the early education in the South, with its large number of private schools, was done by such persons, who sacrificed themselves to carry enlightenment to the black belt. Now and again the death of one of them calls to mind what an enormous debt the colored people owe to the women of New England. THE PLAN FOR AFRICA As chronicled in the December 20th issue of the Afro-American, Dr. W. E. B. DuBois presented to Colonel House a memorandum proposing a plan for the internationalization of Africa. A correspondent of the local SUN in a recent dispatch notes that the memorandum has actually been presented to the Peace Council, and will be discussed by the delegates. Dr. DuBois' plans call for the reconstruction of Africa to include the former German colonies, and in addition the colonies of Belgium and Portugal, making in all a territory of two and a half million square miles, with twenty million people. Such a country should be governed by an International Council of civilized white and colored people, Dr. DuBois suggests, but adds that there should be no attempt to change suddenly the efficient form of African tribal government or to convert the natives by religious propaganda. Rather the slower method of the schools and the churches should be followed. After two years twenty millions of boys and girls should be in the schools and as many adults in the churches. "Is such a state possible? Those who believe in men; who know what blacks have done in human history; who have taken us to follow even superficially the story of the rise of the Negro in America, the West Indies and the Americas of our way know that our modern contemption of Negroes rests upon no scientific foundation worth a moment's attention. It is nothing more than a vicious habit of mind. It could as easily be overthrown as our belief in war, as our international hatreds, as old conceptions of the status of women, as our fear of educating the masses and as our belief in the necessity of poverty. We can, if we will, inaugurate on Dark Continent a last great crusade for humanity. With Africa redeemed, Asia would be safe and Europe indeed triumphant." Those are splendid words from the editor of the Crisis, and no doubt awaken the right response in the breast of Americans as well as colored Africans. In effect they carry the same import as Bishop Turner's opening address in South Africa ten years ago when he coined the phrase "Africa for Africans." If the allies are not to make of themselves "VULTURES" preying upon the Dark Continent and exploiting it as they have in the past for its rubber, ivory, diamonds, gold and human labor, then they must apply not the principle of self-determination—Africa is not ready for that—but the principle of an organization and government for Africans under some such scheme as Dr. DuBois suggests. Secretary of the Navy Daniels has issued an order inaugurating a crusade against the use of "cuss" words and profanity in general by seamen. Looks like the old expression of "cussing like a sailor" will not hold good any longer. Dean Pickens suggests it would be a fine thing if President Wilson could address the Peace Conference on "How I solved the race problem in America." Chester, Pennsylvania, has a political boss whose official position is janitor in the courthouse, but whose unofficial title is "King Bass." Bass controls only 100 votes, but is said to have an office in the courthouse on the second floor, up among the judges, etc., which indicates that it is not how many votes you control but how close is the contest. Moorfield Story is right when he says that if an element of white Americans, wins out in its efforts to put colored American soldiers on their return where they were before the war, all the strength of the country will not be able to prevent an uprising. With the hat of State's Attorney Broening thrown into the centre of the ring, Timanus seems to have accepted the inevitable in good faith, and proceeded to take a back seat. "While poverty exists, life will be needlessly wasted" is the conclusion of the Federal Child Bureau Report on the close relation between parents' income and infant mortality. It took the Bureau six years to investigate conditions surrounding 23,000 babies, and it found that where the parents income was $550 a year one baby out of every six died. When the wages of the parents were $1250 or higher, only one baby out of every sixteen died. These are pre-war statistics, and there is no doubt that the high wages earned in the past two years in all lines of work have served to lift many families out of the $550 a year class into higher classes. --- PRIVATE FLEET WM.

To the Editor: I would be obliged if you will correct in your next issue the error which appeared in today's paper naming "Warden Lankford" as superintendent in Anneliese Arnold to Mr. Lankford is not a warden at Cheltenham, which, if you mean the House of Reformation for Colored Boys, is not in Anne Arundel County, and has no warden. The reformatory at Cheltenham has the reputation of being a model for similar institutions in various other parts of the country, now making more humanely managed semi-penal institutions in the states, and one of the only two containing colored inmates, which has colored representatives on the board. Each Grand Jury has taken occasion to commend its efficient management. Thanking you in advance for making this correction, I am pleased that you has an inadvertence on your part, in your otherwise very accurate paper. I am. Very truly yours. E. B.

The said minister is not a member of the Baltimore Conference. Two years ago he trans- ferred to the Philadelphia Con- ference. He may have his transfer out of the conference if so he is not a member of any as yet. He is standing on the outside between the two conferences. We resent such an article coming from an outsider. We men who have been in this conference for 25, 30 and 40 years to not want war in the Middle East. Let him prove himself in our church and con- ference before he undertakes to tell what to do. I have been traveling in the Baltimore Conference for 28 years, and I would not dare to di- tate to the Conference—who would elect to the General Con- ference. I pray if Rev.

Mrs. George Washington has just received the information of the conversion Mrs. Georgia Washington has just received the information of the conversion Mrs. George Washington has just received the information of the conversion Continued from Page 1 Erady, Snowden's counsel, took 66 exceptions to the rulings of the lower court at the trial held at Towson, Port-ix-six of these were not pressed. "We have considered them carefully, and find no reversible error in any of them. "This court has no power to pass upon the guilt or innocence of the appellant (Snowden). He elected to be tried by jury. They were exclusive judges of the weight and sufficiency of evidence established the guilt or innocence of the accused. We have no power to disturb their findings, unless we find that the court during the course of the injunction committed some reversal or injunction error either in admission or rejection of testimony. REVIEW OF THE CASE "Mrs. Brandon was seen the morning of the eighth of August, after the departure of her husband for work. This was about ten or eleven o'clock." Her husband returning at 5:30 by lying on the bed, her hair loose, dressed in exposed, bled, bruised, neck scratched and bruised, and wound in her head, from which blood had flowed and soaked into the bed clothes. According to the testimony of Dr. Joyce, death resulted from a blow on the forehead, strangulation and stock. "There was no doubt that she died of her injuries." PHOTOGRAPHS ALL RIGHT The use of photography objected to by the counsel for Snowden, was held to be properly admitted by Judge Dupean of the lower court, since they only showed injuries which had been fully described, and were not denied to exist. KELLED ON JUNE 11, 2015. STATE RELIED ON FIVE WIFES "The state peliked on the testimony of Mary Perkins (Ethan Credithers). Leroy Sisco and two others." "Mary Perkins saw Snowden leave the Brandon home about eleven o'clock in the morning with a bottle of something that looked like whiskey." "He peeped out, according to her testimony, before leaving the house to see if any one was looking, and then walked off." Sisco, the twelve year old boy, about twelve o'clock, said he hard a "little noise" in the Brandon house, saw a lady's arm start to come out of the room, and pulled her back and shut the door." There was an effort made by Snowden's counsel to break down this testimony, but the jury evidently believed they told the truth. SCHATCHES ON SNOWDENS FACE Scratches discovered on Snowden's face discovered on Snowden's face have been indicted by Edna Wallace, the woman with whom he lived. The state that differently and showed by Dr. Curr that the autopsy performed by him disclosed particles of skin of a colored person under the skin of Mr. Brown that the money was important. and WE THINK UNDER THE 'CIRCUMSTANCES CLEARLY ADMISSALE MARY WILLIAMS TESTIMONY REFUSED Exception to the ruling of the lower court in refusing to allow Mary J. Williams to testify as to the 'nose' nights of August 7th. (before the crime) was Mr. Brady's 48, 47 and 40th bill of exceptions. The Court of Appeals held that by the uncontradicted evidence of five witnesses, Mr. Brandon was alive the next morning. Since there was anyone except Snowden with the proposed offer of testimony was properly refused." AS TO MARSHAL CARTER Lawyer Brady's bill of exception against the acceptance of the testimony of Marshall Carter and deputy Marshall House of the Baltimore police force, who denied that Snowden was abused or maltreated by the deputy force commanded from him, was commended briefly by the Court of Appeals. It said that the ruling of the lower court on this testimony was not manifestly wrong or injurious. In conclusion, the opinion of the Judges reads: "We have given the case most careful and earnest consideration, and we have found no reversible evidence of any of its rulings, and the judgment will therefore be affirmed." "Motion to dismiss appeal denied, and judgment affirmed with costs." HNONRS FOR NEGRO SIGNAL UNITS Continued from Page 1. communications, installing new lines In writing the "thins" to this brief mention of this important army unit made up of young colored men it fitting that I tell of the particular work done by the boys of the 1st Platoon on the first day of the invasion, that the burglar was lifted, the big guns of the enemy began shelling Pont-a-Mousson. The first shells, as I vividly recall, hit the edge of the city, and then gradually they began peppering the Signal Battalion's station. Sergeant Rufus B. Aiwood, of the 1st Platoon, was seated in the cellar near the switchboard: Private Mike the watchboard, and Private Clark the burglarphone. Several officers and men were standing in the "dugout" cellar. Suddenly a German shell struck the top, passed through the celling and wall, and exploded, making havoc of the cellar. Lieut. Walker, colored, who arrived just at this time, displayed admiration. He took immediate charge and found all lines broken. He found, on trying it, the buzzphone out. Private White then received orders to stay on the switchboard, and Corporal Adoiphon Johnson on the buzzphone. The 12 drop monochord board was nailed up by White, and then gun the connecting up of the monochord board. All outside the time the shelling around this point, by the Germans was force and deadly—shells hitting all around the boys; stuck a nearby ammunition dump causing the explosion of thousands of rounds of ammunition, which caused a terrific splash and all lights to be extinguished. But not leave this dangerous post, a veritable target for the enemy's big guns until the Lieutenant of the Military Police arrived and ordered them out. IN THE SOCIAL WHIRL Mrs. A. L. Galmes entertained the members of the Dubols Circle, their husbands and a few additional friends at her residence on McCulloh street Tuesday, January 21.

These young ladies are well versed in such affairs and we feel assured that this is a very valuable time as there has been a very fortunate time as the Christmas process has been. Furthermore, Naun's Jazz and is promised which is an incentive in itself. Speaking of dances, recalls the rumor that the Minerva's tub will be sponsored for one day in February at the Service of the day. They always have abundant success in their undertakings and we have to reason to believe that this will be an exception. The French class continues in popularity. The membership having gone up to 95% of the class are very enthusiastic and chatted in having so splendid a teacher. Adversely there are those, elated of the "old school," men of much learning and little intelligence who include the progress of the class by their endless questions, thoughts and suggestions. Their motive seemingly to the qualifications of the class is to be an undergraduate. Miss Gibson on the spot has come to understand which she handles both and hope that very soon she will. But put the quietus on them. From St. Louis comes the interesting announcement of the engagement of our Mrs. Kenneth Jain Carney to the Rev. Shilton Hale Bishop.

We, the undersigned, take this means of informing MR. WARNER T. McGUINN that we desire him to become a candidate for the office of City Council for the 14th Ward, subject to the Republican Primaries. We believe that Mr. McGuinn's long record of usefulness to the Ward, the City and State, is worthy of the highest consideration from the citizens of the said Ward. We believe that his acceptance of the nomination would place behind him the Republicans of the Ward, both white and colored. We know of no other Republican in the Ward who is more popular and more able to assume the great responsibilities of representing his fellow citizens as Councilman. We therefore urge Mr. McGuinn to accept the nomination and pledge our undivided support to his candidacy. RICHARD NEWTON CHARLES H. OWENS JOHN BROUGH GEORGE L. DENT JOHN BRISCOE JOHN CURTIS JOHN E.

A STORY In the early part of the nineteenth century they lived in a city midway between the North and the South, a Negro teacher by the name of the Rev. Henry Jones. He was the pass of a congregation, composed of some free colored people and those slaves—for this was a slave holding community—who were "cured by ferryship masters." He and four of his shipmates in an edine or what is now a result of hard work, the building had been purchased by the congregation and through the ingenuity of the pastor, had it needed to the "Colored people" to their successor "forever." They worked in a shelter with workers shipped in ferry and devotion. The Rev. Jones by his upright life and many character drew his members to him, and kind shepherd draws his stock. There came a time when the white church of the same faith which had supervision over the Rev. Jones and his book, divided among the colored church. The injustice at which they divided was held at this same city, not a stone's throw from the color church. This cast the lot of colored church with the side that favored slavery. So the church should separate the lives of people should separate the lives of whites and join the recently formed colored organization of that faith. The white Elders held that they had no such right and forthwith expelled the Rev. Jones, Rev. Jones held that he had already left the church and could not be expelled. During the closing Sunday when the colored people were burden to meet in the church under the white Elders. At the appointed time the place was crowded. The white Elder stepped forward to the pulpit to open the services and to his consternation the Rev. Henry elicited the Bible on reading the pulpit, Rev.

"Servants he obedient to the Rev. Jones completely ignoring him lied the hymnal, "Jesus Shepherd of the Sheep, to Thee We Fly for Help." The congregation filled with the spirit of their leader, sang the song of the Rev. Jones, prayed the Rev. Jones prayed a prayer such as only the Negro preacher of that day could have felt and prayed.

WALKER President of the Madam C. J. Walker; Mauufacturing Company and the Leila College, 640 N. West Street, Indianapolis, Ind. By Margaret Black Should Know Whether she is wealthy or poor, she should early be taught to take her place in domestic councils. To help her mother in writing notes, letters and invitations and answering the same. The same. To the disposition of the daily menu for meals, remember the dishes papa likes and the boys have called for. To act in her mother's stead whenever it is necessary, to keep the burden from wearing too heavily on mother's should. To act in the love between her and the young children, carrying out the orders of mother and making herself a delightful comrade and companion. To her fathers and brothers she should be a veritable blessing. To whom they can carry their confidence and worries which it does not seem necessary to worry the already overburdened mother with. To whom they want help, and how to oversee the house, plants, and the disposition of the furniture, pictures, books and bride-a-bride. She should know the theory of cooking and understand the composition of different dishes, and if the house is without domestic help, she should be able to take a responsible role. She should have her own allowance of pocket money and dress money and know how to use it to the best advantage; she should also know the use of a bank account and a check book. Where the time from her studies allows it she should know how to earn a little pocket money for herself, so so to be independent, and to learn to be self-supporting. She should know that so long as under twenty-one and unmarried she and must be governed by her parents. She should remember that her father has the right to say who shall visit the house, and effect any man from the premises if he chooses. That no girl under sixteen, or who is attending school has time to entertain company and three good friends, or attend weekly dances, and the theater and movies every evening. If she does these things her lessons are not only poorly known, but her health suffers. A girl should be trained to be unselfish and considerate. To take good care of herself and should also receive the proper physical exercise. No girl is properly trained who does not know how to take proper care of her body. It is easy to abuse ones health but it sometimes takes a lifetime to rectify a small mistake made thru ignorance in girlhood. The Art of Dressmaking LADIES' TAILORING ETC.
