Earl Johnson's time for the five and one half mile course was 32 minutes and 28 seconds. After a two days rain the streets of the city and the roads of the park were in poor condition for a race.

Ike Bannister, the old veteran, who has run in ever-race held by the Afro-American, and who was always among the prize winners, was in next to last place coming thru the park, but spun up and finished fourteenth. One of the men found the going so slippery that he finished the race in his bare feet. All of the starters finished in good condition and were rushed to the "Y" building for hot showers and a run down. Continuous rain led many would be spectators to believe that the race would be called off, and the office forces of the "Afro" was kept busy during the morning telling inquiries that the contestants were here from Washington, Philadelphia and Lincoln University, and the race would go on as scheduled. Start was delayed until 12:57 in hope that the downpour would reuse MEDALS AND CUP AWARDED.

Miss Jackson told of the work of the National War Work Council is doing in spending $200,000 set aside for colored women's associations.

WHITE SOLDIER A HERO A white soldier on the W. B. and A. she said, got up, and coming back to the rear of the car, where she was standing, escorted her to his seat up front, when another white man in the opposite seat asked him, "Is that the best you can do, give your seat to a 'bigger' woman?" The soldier replied in effect: "I am an overseas fighter. While shackers like you were at home, thousands of the men of the race represented by this woman did as much to achieve history in France as white soldiers did. Some of them were better men than I am, and they are still in France. We left them over there. It would have been a heap sight better, if we could have taken such men as you over there and left them." Of course the whole car heard the dialogue in silence, while Miss Burroughs, humiliated by the cracker, and at the same time thrilled by the soldier's defense could only say to herself "Thank God." Miss Elizabeth Carter, formerly the only colored teacher in the mixed schools of New Bedford, Mass, spoke on "Blurred Vision."

Wright, drummer in the famous "Holl Fighters" (369th Infantry) Band, recently returned from overseas.

Wright was arrested, but claims he defended. accented funeral was held from St. Mary's Methodist Episcopal church, West 32rd street on Tuesday. The famous leader was attired in the costume in which he had appeared before hundreds of thousands of cheering people; dress suit and pleated boots shirt.

UGH DR CAROLIN JAMES TIRED OF COL- ORED MIGRANTS Association of Commerce Would Send Negroes back To Southern Homes—Associated Negro Press Uncovers Scheme to Get Rid of City Voters. Chicago, May 14—The people of Chicago are much concerned about the motive of the Chicago Association of Commerce in telegraphing to all the larger Southern cities and emulating of the commercial bodies in that section whether they have any employment opening of any kind for members of the race. Coming as it does, in connection with a concerted effort on the part of all the daily papers and leading civic organizations of the community to "look into the Chicago Negro problem," there is some suspicion on the part of the thinking people as to whether there may not be some "white folks in the world." The copy of the telegram sent to the Southern cities reads: "Are you in need of Negro labor? Large surplus here. Both returned soldiers and civilians. Negroes ready to go to work. Can you send responsible parties to interview Negroes and make suitable selection and arrangements for locating them in jobs needed for your section?" Soldiers' buildup ready to provide office facilities and corporate in every way possible. "Signed R. R. Beach. Chicago Association of Commerce." This telegram is being received with varied degrees of enthusiasm in the South, and the story concerning the "search for openings" is being played up and written up in the customary Southern fashion of accepting gingerly suggestions emanating from the North, white or otherwise. Some of the headlines in various newspapers are amazing with the facts in the case. The Greenville, N.J. Pledmont, has this caption "Negroes in Chicago Facing Survival." The Columbus (Ga.) Enquirer has this headline: "Chicago has Surplus of Negroes; Could Columbus Use Them?" The Enquirer proceeds to say after printing the telegram: "In the event of local commerce organizations deciding to accept the offer of the Chicago body, a representative will be dispatched to the Windy City with instructions to pick out only Southern Negroes who have ventured up to the search of the progeny of gold mines. Northern Negroes to include northern mines into the minds of northern blacks will be sent south." Careful investigation by the Associated Negro Press discloses the fact that there are some of the race out of work, just as there are thousands of whites, but there has been no request on the part of the men out of work to have the Chicago Commerce body telegraph to find work in the South. As a matter of fact, there is not only a general disposition not to return to the South, but then to hundreds of people from the South coming North, regarded as a bit of champion on the part of the Chicago body and "R. R. Beach" to in this manner to "get rid of the colored people of Chicago. Chicago is on the threshold of the greatest building revival in the history of the city, and it is believed by all thoughtful people, that the demand for labor in a few weeks will far exceed the supply. GAINES WITH DANIELS PARTY Washington, May 14—There has been quite a bit of comment among folk in official life here, because of the fact that all the cablegrams giving the names of the "official party" traveling with Secretary of the Navy Daniels on his tour thru Europe, the name of Robert Gaines, a race man, appears. Mr. Gaines is described officially as a messenger, but his name appears on the official list sent by cable-gram. DRIVING RA NA RACE REESE E WANTS STATE TO HANDLE LYNCHERS Governor Dorsey Favors Appoint- ment of Grand and Petit Juries Savannah Gn., May 14—The creation of a grand and pettier jury to handle lynching cases only is being proposed by Governor Hugh M. Dorsey. The Governor will endure to kill through the legislature. Governor Dorsey declared: "I have long recognized that the matter of lynching is a crime against the sovereignty of the State, and as such, the state should have first jurisdiction over lynching, and not be left to the hands of the particular community where the crime occurred." Governor Dorsey was one of the signers of the call for the National Anti-Lynching Conference held in New York. The program to "Make American Safe for Americans" on which the National Association for the Advancement of Colored. People. is making its drive, was given out as follows by Mr. Shillady: 1. A vote for every Negro man and woman on the same terms as for white men and women. 2. An equal chance to acquire the kind of an education that will enable Negroes everywhere wisely to use their skills in the courts for all crimes of which he is accused, by judges in whose election he has participated without discrimination because of race. 3. A right to sit upon the jury which passes judgment upon him. 4. Defense against lynching and burning at the hands of mobs. 5. Equal service on railroad and other public carriers. 6. Is to mean sleeping car service, dining car service. Pullman service, at the same cost and upon the same terms as other passengers. 7. Equal right to the use of the public parks, libraries and other community services for which he is taxed. 8. An equal chance for a livelihood in public and private employment. 9.

Bruce, assistant superintendent in charge of the colored schools removed from his office. A plan was on foot to picket the Franklin Building, but for some reason it fell through.

Compton appointed on the Board of Education to take the place of Dr. John Hayden Johnson, whose term of office expires June 30, 1913.

DING and LODGING Men Only. Refer- required. Apply O Penna. Ave. In the near future the word "Acolian" will be constantly before the public. It was decided at the last rehearsal of the orchestra bearing that name and mention in a previous issue of this paper that the name of the orchestra would be the Acolian Symphony Orchestra. This particular name was selected because of its musical connection. It is taken from the Acolian harp which in its turn derived its name from Acolus, god of the wind. The Acolian harp is an instrument that is played by the wind. Placed in a open window the wind passing thru causes the strings to vibrate causing a most pleasing sort of music. Thompson in the "Castle of Indolence" describes the music of the harp as "such sweet, such sad, such solemn, such arduous." An instrument producing chords by the wind alone, without any interference as the Aeolian Harp, stimulates the fancy and is in itself an attractive phenomenon. We are impressed with it as by a "sweet upbraiding" (Coleridge's Aeolian H.) to be followed as the wind pressure increases by more and more angry notes as we mount to those dissonances of the next higher octave and seem to shrick and bowtill until the abating gust of wind suffers the lower and more harmonies to predominate again. The wind finds in this return a celestial echo as of some devotional antiphon. Aeolian music is nature's music. And so we have named our orchestra 'Aeolian' because it is, our aim to unite man's music with natures music. As yet, the orchestra is in its infancy the membership is still small. It is the aim however, of the organization to have as large a membership as possible. To that end we invite both men and women to join us in our rehearsal at the Y. M. C. A. at 3 o'clock on Sundays. This organization gives something for the young musical students to work for and aspire to. As soon as they become sufficiently proficient they may join the Symphony orchestra. The personnel of the orchestra will be given at a later date.
