Thomas Declares Republicans There Are Tired Of Jobless Prince Georges County Is Pointed Out As Example Of What Can Be Done "We are not going to support Sydney E. Mudd for re-election to Congress this time," John A. Thomas, a tobacco grower of Charles County, told a representative of the AFRO-AMERICAN the other day. He was in the city to sell his crop of tobacco. "Sydney E. Mudd has never done anything for the colored voters," he went on to say. "We are in the majority but we get no offices. We will work for John R. Higgles, white, a Progressive, and you will find many of us right behind W. Ashbie Hawkins in his senatorial aspirations." He mentioned the fact that colored voters in Prince Georges county have a road supervisor, deputy sheriff, jailer and other jobs, chiefly because they bolted and put up Brodus or county office. Mr. Thomas ran for the Legislature last fall on an independent ticket. He filed after white Republicans refused to vote on his nomination. John P. N. White, and others openly opposed the efforts of his friends to nominate him. The day before election white Republican circulated a false rumor that Mr. Thomas had sold out to the Democrats. This made many of his supporters stay away from the polls. Congressman Mudd was at La Cata openly working against him. 200 Appointed Clerks D. C.

If the ideas of William Sherill and the Universal Workers Union are carried out, domestic laborers, male and female will receive a salary of not less than sixteen dollars a week. The aim and purpose of the Universal Union according to Mr. Sherrill is to organize colored servants throughout the United States for higher wages, shorter hours and better working conditions. The domestic and personal service workers, he said, are a badly abused class. Under this head, bus boys, butlers, chambermaids, cooks, dishwashers, porters and etc., are grouped. Their numbers run over one million. Not only should domestic workers organize for higher pay, they say, but that there is no reason why they should not be given a vacation period with not less than two weeks with pay. Mr. Sherill points out to the example to the Railway Men's International Association with thirty five thousand members as an example of what the colored union can do towards fighting law wages, long hours and poor working conditions.

AFRO 28 YEARS OLD TODAY With this issue the Afro-American passes its 28th milestone. For this length of time it has stood four square for the improvement and best interests of the colored people of Baltimore and Maryland, whom it serves. In the big movements of the years, it has adhered strictly to the principle of independence—"Independent in all things, neutral in nothing." More recently it has added to this the watchword "Boost Baltimore," and its one big purpose is to make this community a cleaner, better and happier place in which to live. During these twenty-eight years, progress would not have been possible without the encouragement and support of Afro readers. From a few hundred, the number has grown until last week 20,149 persons bought and presumably read this newspaper. Only two weekly newspapers in the country are known to have a larger circulation. Today, the "Afro" is twelve pages, two sections, the new dress that it will wear from now on. A larger paper was promised six weeks ago, but the paper shortage and delay in the arrival of additional machinery imposed insuperable difficulties. The "Afro" considers itself fortunate in being able to present its readers a larger newspaper for its twenty-eighth birthday. 'LINK' JOHNSON DOESN'T SCARE Threats Of Crackers To Lynch Him C-Sight Will Not Keep Him From Georgia (Associated Negro Press) Chicago, September 2.—Col. Henry Lincoln Johnson, who is directing the national campaign work of the Republicans among colored voters, seems not disturbed about the threats coming from some white Georgia newspapers and politicians since he told the Senate Investigating Committee that it was worth a colored man's life to attempt to vote in some communities down in Georgia. Colonel Johnson says he is going to his home town in Atlanta, and will there speak to the greatest crowd that ever assembled on the campus of Morris Brown College. Members of the Legislature, editors of daily newspapers and other whites, will be invited. It is expected that excursions will be run into Atlanta to hear the only colored member of the Republican National Committee speak.

The Afro-American 12 PAGES Beginning Sept. 9th, the price of the AFRO-AMERICAN in Baltimore will be 7 cents; elsewhere 10 cents. The increase is due: 1—To meet the cost of white paper. 2—To meet the higher wage scales of labor, which have very properly increased. 3—To give the newsboys and dealers a needed larger margin of profit. 4—To make a continually better publication for the benefit of our readers. Value determines price, and price in turn regulates value. It costs more—much more—to produce a newspaper like the AFRO-AMERICAN, and a change in price is necessary to maintain our lead as a news and feature paper, and to continue an improvement which has been conspicuous in the past. 1-To meet the cost of white paper. 2-To meet the higher wage scales of labor, which have very properly increased. 3-To give the newsboys and dealers a needed larger margin of profit. 4-To make a continually better publication for the benefit of our readers.

Morris, president of the Boydton (Va.) Institute hurried at their leader that they started to pull the tent down where the minister was preaching a sermon. A riot call was sent by Rev. A. Clayton Powell to the police station on West 135th street. The tent adjoins Liberty Hall, where the Garveyites have just concluded a thirty-day session. The minister began his demunciation while the followers of Marcus Garvey were in session at Liberty Hall. They filed out of the hall, at first became interested listeners and then started to pull the tent down. Rev. Powell got the women out, the police came and Rev. Morris continued his sermon. Rev. Powell denounced the Garveyites also, as did Oscar Waters, chairman of the National Negro Democratic Committee.

A white detective sergeants were and killed in one of the notorious "black and tan" resorts, the 1st Cabaret, early Monday morning, Hershey Miller, a tough gun from the west side. The first reports of the attack gave the impression that the ring was the outcome of the milion of white and colored dancers who have been frequenting the place. Later reports, however, reveal that the operations of a big ill whiskey ring was the cause of a tragedy. The Pekin Cabaret was an important receiving and distributing station for a $1,000,000 illicit whiskey gang who was operating among the questioning resorts and "blind" saloons Chicago's south side. Graft, politics and the bawdy charms of women of the underworld played the several parts in the sordid tragedy. William Hennessy and Jake Muleahy were the white detective sergeants killed by the trusty of Hershie Miller. The president of the detectives in the Pekin the unseasoned hour of 3 A.M. is counted for in the statement by Miller that there was a quarrel about a division of spoils mounted Walter Tyler, manager of resort, one of his entertainers styled, "Salome," and two women, Lila Akron and Jane Bentley are being held by the State's office as important witness in the case. Tyler denies any knowledge the whiskey ring and the three women disguise any knowledge the causes of the killing aside for the fact that they were present when the shooting took place. Tyler remains closed as a rest of the shooting. Dan Jackson, undertaker, is the owner of the building which house the cabaret. An effort to connect Alderman Louis B. Anderson with the proprietorship of the caribaret by the authorities, failed. DEMOCRATS RAISE RACE ISSUE Claim There Is Large Indus Of Colored People Into Ohio And It May Cost Cox The Election Dayton, O., Sept. 1.—Despite the fact that friends of Governor Cox boast that he has colored admirers who will support him for President, they are attempting to raise the race issue because a large number of colored men are said to have settled in Ohio from the South lately. Governor Cox has asked the federal authorities to make an investigation and he is making one. It is claimed that 20,000 colored men voted in the last election. As about an equal number of women will be added to the electorate this fall, Democrats are alarmed, less Ohio cast its vote for Harding. This State is regarded as a pivotal one. Colored men and women emigrated here in large numbers during the war. YARMOUTH ARRIVES AT NEW YORK Runs Short Of Coal Outside Harbor And Is Towed In New York, Sept. 2.—The Steamship Yarmouth of the Black Star line was towed into port last week when the vessel ran short of coal just outside New York Harbor; The Black Star Line steamer Kanawha is reported in Norfolk, Va., harbor taking on coal for a trip to Cuba with a carload of onions.

Marcus Garvey Says Not And Tells Why He Was Not. New York, September 2—Marcus Garvey does not believe in a "white" religion. He says: The white religion itself is not satisfactory to the Negro. Its missionaries have been but the advance guard of the run selves, the slave hunters, the tyrants, and exploiters who respected Africa and ruined our racial heathenry. Such a white heaven, white angels, and a brotherhood of man that was not a brotherhood. "Our movement has its own religion, Such a religion alone must be trusted to lead to Africa missionaries who have Africa's interests at heart. If progress took as a being, it would not be so when it interprets Him through the image of a creature, it shows Him made in our own image—black. "The soldiers of our movement have also written books and treatises soaking to prove that Christ Himself—whose divinity we acknowledge—was not of the tree that claimed Him. They describe that He was a Negro. But such things are of the past. My eyes are on the future.

CITY MAY HELP CHURCH Charles Street A. M. E. Meeting House Rapidly Go To Ruin Boston, Mass. Sept. 1.—As an institution were the Associated Church St. Annes Church, Government Association and the Northeastern Federation of Women's Clubs were organized and where George W. Cable and Paul Lawrence Dumbar once spoke, an appeal has been made to the city authorities to lend aid in requiring Charles St. Annes Meeting House A. M. E. Church. The Boston Herald declared that the present building looks dingy, needs fresh paint and a renewal of the guilding that set off the capping of the picturesque bell tower. There is need of minor repairing and of little restoration that would bring back more completely but not as old as the age ago. But even as the structure stands today it is so fine an example of such a good type among the Boston church—and of a type so rare outside of Boston—that we can by no means afford to lose it. William H. Hunter, William H. Thomas, Theodore Gould, T. W. Henderson, R. C. Ransome, D. D. Roberts, R. P. Hurley and R. W. Fickland are some of the ominous clergymen who have served there. The church was built in 1407 and is one of the oldest landmarks of the distinctive of the Colonial period. The Herald suggests that the church he saved for Boston by moving it ten feet sidewise to the West and so allow for the widening of Charles street.

These loans will be divided as follows: $10,000,000 for harbor improvements. $15,000,000 for water extensions and sewers. $750,000 for a new hospital for contagious diseases. $26,000,000 for general improvement loan, which will be dispensed as follows: 50,000 for new school buildings. $1,000,000 for remodeling and innovation of school buildings. $8,000,000 for extension and improvement of sewers. $6,600,000 for streets. $2,500,000 for development of harbors. $1,150,000 for extension of the conduit system. $850,000 for new improvements in police and fire departments. Each of these four loans may be voted upon separately and any one or all four of them may be "killed," as the voters may wish. Roland Marchant, city solicitor, is being credited for the ingenius arrangements, whereby, if the general improvement loan passes and the others fail there will still be arrangements made for work on the sewers, streets and harbor. A good many voters have not made up their minds whether to vote the loans up or down. They are apparently waiting for a new colored high school before expressing an opinion.

Says Democrats Have Done As Much For Colored People As Republicans One. Democratic candidate, who is out to win colored voters and is not adverse to letting the world know it, is Carville D. Benson, white, of Halethrope, Md., candidate for re-election to Congress from the Second District. His opponent is Albert A. Blakeney, also white. In a statement made to a representative of the AFRO-AMERICAN, Mr. Benson declared that the Democrats in Maryland had done as much for colored people as the Republicans. They would do even more, he added, if it were not for the fact that colored voters usually support the Republican party blindly. Mr. Benson referred to the fact that a colored man had been appointed by Governor Ritchie on the Cemetery Commission, and that a Democratic Legislature had appropriated money for a tuberculosis hospital, the site for which has been selected and will be announced as soon as all arrangements have been made to put the死 over. Mr. Benson adds that he CHANGE YOUR WIFE?" Where was the girl he married? Where the lure, the glamor, the ecstatic hours? Faded into dull, drab, matrimony. Was he wholly to blame when another woman, aglow with joy of living, slipped into the place in his life which his wife had left vacant? WAS HE? A vital, intimate picture of LIFE'S GREATEST PROBLEM. hospital would have been erected long as were it not for the objection of certain Republicans in in Towson Color neighbors of Mrs. Benson more County, whom he has succeed in getting better posi- tions in the Departments at Wash- ington, planning an organization support his cadidacy.

"Blutcher Higgins and Dan Callithe, Negroes, who surrendered to the authorities yesterday after escaping from the county chain gang, were lynched today by a mob."—News item, Corinth, Miss. Aug. 28, 1920. BY LUCIAN B. WATKINS These live by madness and its kindred lust. Where's before them moves a being black They deem his heart a thing for them to rack. Theirs is a power abused; each prideful bust Is leagued with all that's hellful and unjust. Their curse of hatred—Fate fling it back To them; each, trembling in his doomed track. Yes, it was ever so; no less today Than in the days of Sodom and Gomorrah. There is returned the balance-due in pay For every crime that human souls abhor: Whate'er your murderous evil, wolves of prey.

What may prove to be the greatest case ever tried in local courts, may come up in the fall term of the Circuit Court. The plaintiff is Mrs. Mary Foe and she is suing her husband, Mary John for the real unness, but they will serve the purpose, myhow. John and Mary were (sometimes childhood and mother) Mary could not without John was there to keep her from exiting herself. Then John entered business and one day they were mysteriously married. A short time later they went want to marry Edith and had the marriage annulled. The reasons are maternal, but he that he was tree, and proceeded to marry Edith and had a lightning friendship. Here May showed that she was working for when she had told her story to the court the annulment was set aside and John Foe found himself living with Edith Jones, a woman Naturally Edith was in a terrible fix, because one day she was not with wife and mother. Her heart she was married to John edith the Court declared, differently, also a wife, or her and some others said it served her just right for taking John away from Mary. Finally, Edith had befriended her as their own child. This gave a sort of cloak of decency to their Being together, who is not at all visible, although she has been wormed, filled a suit for absolute divorce. It will undoubtedly be granted, but it will not be with wife living with his adopted sister, whom he married, but whom the Court ruled, is not properly his wife.

Injury To King Jumper Threw Gloom Over Entire Note: This is the second of a 14 of articles about the part- ed men played in the great National Olympic Games re- ply held in Antwerp, Belgium. article number one appeared last week. The writer is R. Earl John- son, a former Baltimore lad, who has an athletic career by win- ning three of the marathon races aged by this newspaper. Antwerp, Belgium, Aug. 17. seems to be breaking tough us in many ways. our best bet, Sol Butler, went for his trials yesterday morn- and on his first jump sprained muscle so severely that he was able to continue jumping. his first jump was only about 22 2 ft. 8 in. The leading jump so far is 2 ft. 8 in. Two Americans qualified for the "he trials were held at 9 o'clock the morning. The mornings here are very cool. I don't think butter had warmed up enough before he made his initial effort. His arm was short and snappy. With little effort he hit the board and rolled thru the air. Hitting in a lift place he sink into the sand almost above his ankles. When he fell forward, it was then that the damage was done. Poor fellow, galling his chances for worldly honors were gone, cried like a baby. He was taken to theressing room strapped and bandaged. He passed up all his jumps until the last one when he gamely tried to qualify. His best effort was a funny hop of not more than 10 ft. It does seem too bad that our very best men always meet with some misfortune on the eve of their final effort. The whole team was pulling for gutter to win and when they learned he was injured you can bet there was gloom in the camp. There is another Negro here from England. Edwards by name, and is some runner. He won two of his heats in 10 4-5 and was in the finals. The English formed the race because of a poor start but their protest was on sustained. Our man beat the man. The Britsher was just getting on his mark when the gunner. Oh boy, he did run, but the best he could do was place. The Americans feared him in the hundred. They will probably beat him in the 200 also, because we have some wonderful men. However he has won the respect of every man who follows the running game for he is a dangerous man. EARL JOHNSON Lincoln A. C. In Virginia Lesburg, Va., Sept. 2.—Lincoln C. of Ellicott City defeated Marshall Giants 9 to 6. Rogers of Simpson pitched a good game, while Johnson's home run over the coeurfield fence was the longest it seen here. SPORTING DOPE. The Black Sox broke even on the recent Southern trip, winning two games, losing one, and tying two. At Fayetteville, the Sox lost the first game, four to two, with Stykes stitching. Hodges won the second game three to nothing. While the third game ended in a nothing notching tie. Smith did the outlug. At Winston-Salem, the Babe won the first game six to four with Logan pitching. This was on Friday, on Saturday the score was to six in ten innings, witharker doing the hurling. Sykes struck out nine men in the first game Sunday. He did not a no-hit game and wounded gotten it except for error in the part of his team made which unnerved him. Lefty Smith, has lost his batship. His team mates say that he trailing is that he does not play when a certain young lady sits on the grand stand. Georgie Greyer handled eighteenances with only one error in the game Sunday. In the second game he had an easy time with four. Doc Sykes wanted to win his game badly, on Sunday, and the fans say they never saw him try harder. The second game Sunday was nearly disrupted in the fifth inning when the Black Sox scored four runs. Blaney Hall's hit to center brought in two of them, and the Virginia Manager protested to Bill Orr that Hall had batted out of turn. According to all the scorekeepers, Hall was batting correctly, but the argument for a time attack? large proportions. This only laws the reason why visiting fans should bring along scorekeepers of their own, to check up on the official scorer, which will have a lot of unnecessarily argument.

Authorities and Made His Way Into Canada Disguised as a Baseball Player. This is the fourth of a series of articles written expressly for the "Afro" by Jack Johnson himself. Don't miss a single one. (Copyrighted 1920 by the Lowrie and Black Company.) I have sat many evenings in my home and wondered why the people should worry and torment me so much, and I wondered what was the best for me to do. I had previously made one bold attempt to break away and go into Canada as I had a true friend, Tom Flannigan, over in Toronto and I knew he would welcome me. On the occasion of my attempt to get into Canada, I was stopped by officials of the government at Battle Creek, Michigan. I was traveling in company with my wife when we heard the summons. After hearing a knock.at our door—it was about 4:30 a.m., I should judge—I asked, "What's wanted?" A reply came back in a deep voice—"We want you." "What for?" I asked. "Never mind," they said, "Come on out or we'll come in and get you." "Never mind," they said, "Cold and got you." And I said, "Oh no, brother. If you wait a minute, I'll come on." My wife and I dressed and patrol in waiting for me. I had officer spoke to me. "Get on the train." I answered him saying, "Oh I had the right to order a coach extremely cold morning and rattle I felt a little angry at being so untrain, therefore I wasn't in a very as the grips were getting heavier make the best of a disagreeable side the patrol wagon. On the way to the police station with the police and asked them said they would but they had to After arriving at the station I stay with him the rest of the day train for Chicago. The following morning they explained to the satisfaction of Jun intentions to leave the country to on a visit. Everything was arranging. Now the trouble began with a hot for me that I began to woe out of the country until the excels had thought of many thousands of but there was only one right way. One evening while reading where Rube Foster's baseball mish with a team in New York City. I and sent for a couple of the players I quizzed the players and finally sent him an offer to use my special to transport his team to New York going to New York and was glad team in their game with the G say that the manager accepted. The drawing room of the car happened to be a big fellow on I like me, so I had him take the gift him my ring so that in case mistake the other fellow for me. The team got on at the Polk stopped at the 47th street station on. I came onto the scene carrying the porter without ever being ree wife left on a different line for a other woman and her little boy. The funny thing about my fact that Federal officers and my force watched my house and can I quietly left the train at thankning my friends for their as for me at the station and I hurry my wife and in company with her mind," they said, "Come on out, out." said, "Oh me, brother, you're not a minute, I'll come out." He and I dressed and went outside waiting for me. I had two heavy to me. "Get on the wagon." I mered him saying, "Oh no friend, I right to order a coach for my wife cold morning and rather early, no angry at being so unceremonious before I wasn't in a very pleasant frissos were getting heavier and heaviest of a disagreeable situation, and wagon. I went way to the police station I became and asked them to show me, would but they had to take me to at the station I met a friend a time the rest of the day, and that is Chicago. Following morning they took me into the satisfaction of Judge Carpentier to leave the country for good but Everything was arranged O. K., and the trouble began with the press and that I began to wonder if it were country until the excess of water of many thousands of ways of lefthad only one right way and I think. Evening while reading the Chicago the Foster's baseball nine were come in New York City. I readily decided a couple of the players on the team the players and finally sent for the car to use my special car at no exit his team to New York. I acquired New York and was glad to be able for game with the Gothamites. The manager accepted. Living room of the car was reserved to be a big fellow on Foster's team. I had him take the drawing room my ring so that in case they stoped other fellow for me. I got on at the Polk Street Station at the 47th street station to let senito the scene carrying a bat case without ever been recognized. Then a different line for Toronto in canadian and her little boy. Anything about my escape from Federal officers and members of the used my house and car all night. My left the train at New London my friends for their assistance. At the station and I hurried on to Toronto in company with her we journeyed. And I said, "Oh me, brother, you're not coming in here. If you wait a minute, I'll come out." My wife and I dressed and went outside. There stood a patrol in waiting for me. I had two heavy suit cases. The officer spoke to me. "Get on the wagon." I answered him saying, "Oh no friend, I'm going to walk." I had the right to order a coach for my wife, but it being an extremely cold morning and rather early, none were in sight. I felt a little angry at being so unceremoniously pulled off the train, therefore I wasn't in a very pleasant frame of mind, and as the grips were getting heavier and heavier, I decided to make the best of a disagreeable situation, and so I crawled into the patrol wagon. On the way to the police station I became quite friendly with the police and asked them to show me the city. They said they would but they had to take me to the Station first. After arriving at the station I met a friend and I arranged to stay with him the rest of the day, and that night I caught the train for Chicago. The following morning they took me into court and I explained to the satisfaction of Judge Carpenter that I had no intentions to leave the country for good but had just started on a visit. Everything was carried O.K. and I was released. Now the trouble began with the press and they made it so hot for me that I began to wonder if it were not best to get out of the country until the excess of publicity died down. I had thought of many thousands of ways of leaving the country but there was only one right way and I think I accepted that way. One evening while reading the Chicago Defender I saw where Rube Foster's baseball nine were considering a gome with a team in New York City. I readily decided on my plans and sent for a couple of the players on the team for a conference. I quizzed the players and finally sent for the manager. I made him an offer to use my special car at no expense to himself to transport his team to New York. I explained that I was going to New York and was glad to be able to help the home team in their game with the Gothamites. It is sufficient to say that the manager accepted. The drawing room of the car was reserved for me. There happened to be a big fellow on Foster's team who looked a lot like me, so I had him take the drawing room in my place. I gave him my ring so that in case they stopped us they would mistake the other fellow for me. The team got on at the Polk Street Station. As the train stopped at the 47th street station to let several late arrivals on, I came onto the scene carrying a bat case. I brushed past the porter without ever being recognized. The same night my wife left on a different line for Toronto in company with another woman and her little boy. The funny thing about my escape from the city was the fact that Federal officers and members of the Chicago police force watched my house and car all night. I quietly left the train at New London, Canada, after, thanking my friends for their assistance. A car was waiting for me at the station and I hurried on to Toronto where I met my wife and in company with her we journeyed to Montreal.

Sporting Dope The Roanoke All Stars defeat the Oak Athletic Club, (whose Thursday by the score of seven six) Jackson pitched for the Next week Jack tells how he gets to France and is met at the wharf by a huided cons. The way Hodges played with the Giants in the second game Sunday was a shame. He threw them way under-hand balls and "dew drops." Fifteen hundred fans were on hand. Harry Williams was a man with the goods in the fourth inning Sunday when he hit clearly to right with three men on base. Two of them scored. Grey, who preceded him had a chance to bang a run over, but he struck out. Fenton showed his class as a base runner when he went from first to third on a short single to left field, by Hall in the fourth inning of the second game. Harristone and J. Smith shared fielding honors Sunday. In addition Harry and Joe Lewis backed up every play. A near fight was squelched after Richardson hit Fenton on the leg in the second game Sunday. Both men were "hot." --- The third game at Fayetteville last week was a "corker." "Dark Night" Smith, didn't allow a hit in ten innings and the score was nothing to nothing. As darkness came on the local team got three men on base. Smith was facing third base with the ball in his hands, when the local white, base ampire, who was drunk and evidently tired of the long game, called a balk. According to the rules, balks must be called by the chief umpire, who according to Lewis and others has had nothing to say until yet. Fans rushed out on the field and prevented any further playing. Bird Wade is the owner and manager of the Roanoke All Stars, who played a series here Sunday and Monday. The All Stars are some times known as Wade's Giants. They are one of the few teams owned and managed altogether by colored men. The Roanoke All Stars defeated the Oak Athletic Club, (white) Thursday by the score of seven to six. Jackson pitched for the Virginians. Wednesday of last week, the Virginians played in Atlantic City, where they lost to the Enacharaps with Treadwell pitching by the score of nine to five. Richardson pitched for Roanoke. Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday of this week, the Roanoke team lined up against the Norfolk All Stars in Norfolk. A battle royal was expected. The Y, M. C. A. Base Ball Club has arranged a series of games for the month of September, beginning on Saturday 11th at 2 P. M. The "Y" will line up against Catonsville A. A. Club at Black Sox Park. The "Y" has only lost one game this season, so far. Other engagements are with the Lincoln A. A. Club of Ellicott City and the Greenbri Spring Valley Giants the 18th and 25th, respectively.

THE AFRO-AMERICAN Battle Friday Night KID NORFOLK Jamaicans Win Eastern Champs Friday Night at NORFOLK s Win BLACK SC MAICA KID Clark And Miss Ray Victors In Best Matches Ever Seen On Local Courts Visitors Playing In Washington Club Tournament This Week B. M. Clark and Miss May Ray, both of Jamaica, came to Baltimore last week and carried off the eastern championship tennis matches held in Drill Hill Park under auspices of Monumental Tennis Club. Miss Ray defeated Miss Lucy Slowe of Baltimore in the singles, 6-2; 8-6. Clark defeated Tally Holmes of Washington, 6-4; 6-2; 4-6; 6-2. Holmes put up a good game despite of the fact that he had recently undergone an operation before going on the courts. Dr. M. B. Rhetta removed a cup of poisoned blood from Holmes' leg where a bee had stung him. Like a good sport, Mr. Holmes said nothing of his injury, for fear that Clark would default the match in his favor. Clark and Miss Ray paired together and defeated Wilkinson and Slowe in doubles 5-7; 8-6; 6-0. In the double for the National Championship, a match postponed from New York, Holmes and Smith defeated Clark and Bain 6-0; 6-3; 7-5. A number of persons feel that and Holmes been in good condition he would have defeated Clark. Visitors left here Monday after the matches to enter the John W. Walker club tournament held on the courts of 15th and W. streets, Washington, D. C. Other scores were as follows:— Holmes-Wilkinson 4-6; 6-2; 8-6. Clark-Smith 4-6; 6-2; 1. Clark-Cork 6-3; 6-2.

Before a large crowd Sunday, the Catonsville Social Giants defeated the Baltimore Sluggers at Catonsville in a double header by the score of 8 to 3 in the first game, and the second, 9 to 5. Browne pitched fine ball allowing only seven hits, and struck eight batters. The batting of E. Hayes Randall and the fielding of Brooks was a feature. Cote who pitched the second game hurled fine, holding the visitors safely, while Hill, Chambers and F. Greene starred the losers. Next Sunday Catonsville will play the Newark Shoe Company in a double header. First game called at 2:00 P. M. sharp.

The Giants took the first game two to one, and the Sox the second, six to nothing. Doc Sykes was on the mound for the Black Sox in the first game and deserved a no-hit performance. Not a single Giant got the ball out of the diamond except by the fly route. Errors of Greyer and Williams and Sykes own inability to field a ninth bounced the bases in the ninth inning. Another safe bunt by Robinson scored the winning run. But for Sykes own home run in the third inning, the Black Sox would have been blanked also, for little left-handed Robinson of the Giants, with his deadly change of pace made monkeys of the heavy hitters of the Sox.

If plans of the Colored Women's Suffrage Club of which Mrs. Howard E. Young is president, are carried out, every colored woman in the city will be reached and urged to register at the polls on the first registration day September 21st. According to Mrs. Young the honor of the women is at stake, especially since the state of Maryland has taken such an active part in trying to keep the ballot away from women because colored women would be eligible to vote. "We women," she said, "are especially bitter against the type of white politicians who said that we would not know a ballot if we saw one coming up the street. We must register in order to vote, and we must vote in order to rebuke these politicians." Mrs. Young just returned to the city last week from Montgomery County, where she organized branches of the Suffrage Club. Word of the victory of the suffrage amendment reached that section there the AFRO-AMERICAN, and enthusiastic overflow meetings of men and women were out to hear Mrs. Young speak. The meetings of the Suffrage Club have been set for every Thursday evening at 8 o'clock at the Y. W. C. A. Prominent speakers will be engaged to make the addresses and the women will be instructed about registration and actual casting of the ballot. "If women can be gotten to show interest in these meetings," Mrs. Young said, "there will be no doubt of their wielding a wholesome influence in politics." Asked what motion the Suffrage Club would likely take towards the candidacy of W. Ashleigh Hawkins for the U.S. Senate, Mrs. Young said, that she could not speak for the club until their next meeting when the question would be taken up. Personally, she added both she and her husband favored Mr. Hawkins and would vote for him. With the opening of the Ministers' Meetings, ministers will be asked permission to open their services to five minute talks by well known suffragists, in which will be set forth the necessity of all women voters registering on the first registration day. Couple That To Be Eloping From Washington Make Reporter Promise Not To Tell Shyly walking into the Court Mrs. last Monday morning, Philip days on, aged 22, asked for a license ved Miss Amy Harris, aged 21. Mrs. was accompanied by the blush-women lady and Mr. J. E. Williams. Visit the license being secured, they Miss armed to Rev. C. B. Bishop, who Tussels there to turn in a certificate omeness a marriage, and asked him for a minister. Rev. Bishop quickly informed them that he is a minister. He then thought of the law office of Roy S. Kraut as a most convenient green, and the party went straight there. Attorney Bond was busy looking over some decrees giving unhappy couples a legal separation, but he stopped and in a most gracious manner gave the happy couple permission to contract a legal union. With Mrs. Helt, of 1220 Drum Hill avenue; Miss Elmora Wright and several others as witnesses Rev. Bishop quickly tied the knot and Lawyer Bond gave his benediction. The couple are believed to be residents of Washington, but the groom gave his address and that of the bride as this city. When they spied a reporter for the AFROAMERICAN they asked that the news of the wedding be not published as the "AFRO" is read by everybody in Baltimore and Washington. The reporter solemnly promised that he would not put the news in the paper. Purchases Home Robinette Gresham has purchased a dwelling on Druid Hill avenue near Gold. The consideration was withheld. The property carries a ground rent of $90. Chief Examiner Says Colored Men May Take City Examinations. Do the Pollster: Please to your letter of the 25th Inst.

BANK TO OPEN NEW BRANCH Taylor Aud Jenkins Renovating Building On Caroline St. The pennies make the dollars, but there would be - no dollars credited to many people if it was not made most convenient for them to deposit their savings. At Young's East End Pharmacy, 1400 Jefferson, quite a number of East Baltimoreans go every Monday night to hand their savings into the Christmas Savings Club being run by Taylor and Jenkins, bankers. A reporter for the AFROAMERICAN watched Mr. Walter Webb punch the Christmas cards of many savers last Monday night. These East Baltimoreans are hard workers and thrifty. The same scene was enacted at McNeil's drugstore, Pressman and Carey streets, Tuesday night, a number of residents of the northwest section being enrolled in the club. "The people respond well to the idea of saving their mites," Mr. Webb said. Taylor and Jenkins have bought the property at 505 N. Caroline street, which, after remodelling, will be used as a branch bank. NEW PHYSICAL INSTRUCTOR NAMED Walter Webb, who was a lieutenant during the war, has been appointed an instructor of physical culture for the colored schools. He and Elmer Burgess will work together.

"Mum" was Word At City Hall "Mum" was Word At City Hall The Colored Members Of Mayor's Memorial Committee Had Nothing To Say MAY SPEAK LATER Request To Be Made For Building That Can Be Used By All Although Colonel William C. Jones, chairman of the Mayor's Memorial Committee, asked for suggestions as to the best form of memorial to the soldiers who fell in the world war, not a single colored member had anything to say, when the general committee met at the City Hall Tuesday night Rev. Ernest Lyon, Rev. A. L. Gaines, George W. Mitchell, George A Watty and H. Milton Gross were the colored members there. Miss Ida R. Cummings, Capt. William R. Spencer, Lt. Gough D. McDaniels, City Councilmen W. L. Fitzgerald and Warner T. McGullin were absent. A number of white men and women gave their views, and the prevailing sentiment was that a memorial building should be erected on the civic center. In view of the fact that there has been some apprehension that colored people would be excluded from the club facilities of such a memorial. It is all the more remarkable that none of the colored members had anything to say. Concerning the silence of the colored contingent, Rev. A. L. Gaines stater afterwards that he hoped some colored man would be named on the special committee of ten, authorized to draw the plans for the memorial. Falling in this he said colored members of the committee would get together and urge a building that could be used by all ex-soldiers, white and colored, in common. MASONIC SQUABBLE BEFORE MINISTERS Conferences Will Probably Decide About Religious Services In Churches Ministers and laymen throughout the city are discussing the threatened boycott for any church which permits a lodge of York Rite Masons to come in a body for divine services. Loading spirits in the Most Worshipful United Grand Lodge of Masons, which order lost in court proceedings brought to prevent York Ritters from setting up lodges in Maryland, are behind the boycott, it is claimed. Their ultimatum is that their side of the Masons will not attend any church which allows the York Ritters to use its building. The question of boycott came prominently to the fore several weeks ago when an ultimatum was given officials of Waters A. M. E. Church not to allow the funeral of a York Riter to be held there. The body was taken to the church, but was carried back to the home of the deceased. Rev. J. W. Norris, pastor of Waters A. M. E. Church, was away at the time, and in view of differences of opinion existing, Rev. C. Edward Brown, who conducted the obsequies, would not hold the services there. After some discussion, it is said, that officials of Wieders Church took the ground that it is the House of God and wont welcome all organizations designs of holding services there. Rev. Morris is said to hold to the view that it may be better to allow men of the contending orders to hold services there. Before taking final action he will discuss the question with his brother minister. The funeral of R. R. Samuel R. Ringgold, a local minister, who died at his home, 920 Warner Street, was held from Ebenezer A. M. J. Church Wednesday afternoon. After the funeral it was in Mt. Auburn Cemetery.

The ballot, a weapon of protection to self and home is in your hands; not to use it would be ingratitude to God and disloyalty to humanity. We advise every colored woman to register early and be at the polls on the day of the election between 1 and 2 p. m., and cast your ballot for Harding and Coolidge. In consideration of unjust treatment of the colored people by the local organization, to support it would be compromising self respect, humiliating the race and tolerating a most vicious insult.

Mr. Garvey's proposal to klek the white nations out of Afrien pra- yoked a smile when first uttered, Dut when spoken for thirty days in succession, the smile wore off Moreover, England, troubled swith the propaganda for a free Treland that hax been fostered 90 courag. cousty in this country, has no de- sire for a similar agitation amons black folks for a treo Afviea. ‘The announcement of Mr. Garvey that las president General of the Negroes jof Afrien, he would take up his residence In Tiberia, has caused something more than ripple ot lamusoment in British pMelat ctr. cles. ‘The resulting consternation seized Uncle Sam as well as Johnny Bull. America knows that if Mfr Mareus Garvey denounces England in America, he will £0 to Africa and denounce the United States Unele Sam also knows that as long as Mr, Garvey in New York em. ploys his vituperation against European nations in Africa, he is safe from the Ameriean espionage laws ana the various other regula- tions designed to keep people from saying what they think, — Down South Mr. Garvey's organization ‘might be broken up by a lynching party; from England he might have been deported, but in New York or Liberia, that is a different question, ‘That Uncle Sam ts not altogether ipleasea with the Garvey movement is shown by the fact that the Stat Department refused pass ports tc two Gnzvey dologates to go tc Liberia on a diplomatic: mission Garvey wus not defeated tho, for by means of the Black Star Line o the “underground railroad,” he sent his “ambassadors” as he call: ed them, to Liberia anyhow. What is more, they arrived, and as the proof thereof, the Mayor of Ziberta himself Is in New York as a dcle- [gate to the convention. “Liberians generally are more en- thuslastic over the coming of Mr. Garvey and tho Black Star Line tc their country than they are over getting the five million doflar toar promised them two years ago by President Wilson. ‘A good part of the loan would be used up in paying the expenses lot white officials sent over from ‘America to administer Liberfar eustoms, etc, but if Br.

Congressmen Liked It Straight POKER FLOURISHED Almost everyone knew of one saloon in the capitol at Washington in the good old days before prohibition came into style, but only those on the inside knew there were really two and perhaps more. A representative of the Afro-Ameri can run across a Baltimore employed in the Capital some eleven years ago when President Wilson came into office and his step of what he called the Republican moved out and the Democrats moved in, is well worth the notice of a monumental historian. That one saloon was in the basement of the Capitol and was open to the public. The other was kept by various members of Congress and was understood to be private stock. It was nothing in those days for a congressman to have a thousand dollars worth of we good stored in some unused Committee Room to which only the owner and a colored attendant had the keys. Be it remembered that 1,900 bought considerable liquor in those days. Those were the days when big poker games flourished in the Committee rooms, and the Republicans and Democrats had aside their policies to engage in the great game where thousands of dollars changed hands in the course of an afternoon. Meanwhile some long winded speaker was holding forth in the Senate of House, and spectators in the galleries wondered where the hawkers were, even vacant. Strangely enough the sergeant-at-arms always found them in a few moments when some member demanded a roll call. Stories of the big games never got into the newspapers for the simple reason that the reporter who wrote such a story, automatically would and all sources of news closed to him mercerize. Many years afterward Washington newspapers, especially the印钞机 made public the fact that the juntors of the Senate and once paintings got on in average of three or four barrels of white whiskey bottles from the hills every day, out of the big power games the big scores of private liquor the Cangu never leaked out. "They was the days" when Joe Cannon was speaker of the House and wielded authority greater than president Tafts. John Donellz was chairman of the important Ways and Steams Committee, and his colored messenger got as high as $100 a day in bays from wealthy men who wanted to "the boss" in a hurry. "Swagger" Surry of Kentucky lame in one leg, was another House member. More pretensions than all was Ketter or吉他ists, who loved to wear a dress suit on at occasions, morning, noon or night, and was never without a pink curtains in his buttonhole. Champ Clark was there then, Adamson of Georgia, author of the Adamson "Right Hour Law," and Helfin, who gained authority by shooting a colored man on the street cars in D. C. and later introducing a jincar cow car for Washington in the House. Thus last two were celebrated Negro naters. Other James of Kentucky had a javish sponder. In fact it was not unusual to hear a cricket congressman from the south rail to the waiters in the Capitol restaurant "come here 'nigger" and take this order." Shirley, Adanson and Bollin were well lated by Capitol employees while "Summer" Shirley of Illinois, Representative Gillette, of Massachusetts, and Sereno Payne and were generally loved for their collegiate qualities. GREAT TIME AT CAPITOL Unusual excitement prevailed at the Capitol when the Speaker was shown of his autocratic powers and the House passed rules taking out of his hands the appointment of certain committees. One employee of the Capitol spent the night before the occasion sleeping of a seat in the House galleries and付 $15 for his seat from an anxious spectator the next morning. Another exciting occasion was the coming of President Wilson an his generative followers to Washington in 1915, and his followers had been out for six years, during which time McKinley, Roosevelt and Taft presided in the White House. Naturally the election of Mr. Wilson was an occasion for the converse. From all parts of the out they came seeking jobs. The rotunda of the Capitol resembled a southern picnic, where lit-kempt and unshaven office seakers sat all day long on the floor and on the steps eating lunches and scattering fruit skins, peanut huts, and other refuse to the four winds. It was months before the Bowie party found jobs, by election Republican for the hungry southern lords and the Capitol resumed its normal app MOTON VICTORY DAUNTS OPPONENTS Loss Of Business League Presidency Would Have Shown That He Had Lost "Influence." Philadelphia, Pa., Sept. 3.—Now that the Business League is over, many persons are asking how it happened that E. C. Brown was not elected president. Mr. Brown, who was well known banker here, was groomed for the position by many, but it was Mr. Brown himself, who nominated Dr. Moton for re-election. While everything was quiet and serene on the floor of the League during the election of officers, it is reported that a hot fight was waged in the nominating committee's rooms, and every effort used to have the committee used a successor for Dr. Moton. When these efforts failed, Mr. Brown, who was a good loser, was among the first to endorse the committee's action. It is said the effort to oust Dr. Moton from the presidency was fostered by a group who were mostly interested in creating the feeling that Dr. Moton had lost his influence among public men, and it was for this reason only that the Tuskegee head allowed his friends to wage a fight for his re-election STATE NEWS POCOMOKE CITY Pocomoe City, Md.

Mother of Poet L To uching Story of In a little, two-story, frame cottage at 219 North Summit street, Dayton, Ohio, lives the aged mother of America's most distinctive poet Paul Laurence Dunbar. During the lifetime of her poet son, this little home and the splendid mother who presided over it constituted a shrine to which thousands of Americans made pilgrimage every year. They paid homage to the great poet, whose Tries of lowly life touched sympathetic chords in their hearts as no other American poet had done. 1915 PAUL LAWRENCE DUNBAR In the fifteen years since the death of Donbar things have changed wonderfully at the Donbar Home.

Mrs. Thompson was at the hospital last week visiting his sixteen year old son Charles, who was recovering from an operation for appendicitis performed on August 14. Dr. Marina came of her out, and sought to enforce his objection by seizing her nobly by the left arm. Brussels fingerprints were left in the woman's arm by the physician. When Charles was unable to walk, Michael, it is said, brought in a police officer after the mother had left and treated the boy with arrest if he was not burry and brought the hospital. Mrs. Thompson came for her son in a wrist bag and was treated to their home. Other attendants of the hospital were kind in their treatment according to Mrs. Thompson except Marina, who not only canonized her romally but cursed her in the viled language. When asked by she had taken her daughter's Hospital, Mrs. Thompson said that she was a widow and without large means.

MALONE'S VISIT According to Mr. Malone, it was a little after eight o'clock in the morning when his party consisting of Mrs. Malone and three others arrived at the Summit street house where they were greeted by Mrs. Malila Dunbar, the poet's mother, now in her seventy-fifth year. The Malones apologized for coming at such an early hour, and Mrs. Dunbar, her bright, clear character shining in her face, in turn apologized for not being ready to receive them. The visitors noted that prosperity had not dwelt with Mrs. Dunbar in the fifteen years since her son passed away, and their fears were confirmed when they passed thru the dining room and noted on the table a contribution box with a card attached asking visitors to contribute. The poet's mother confessed also that these contributions, generous friends in the city, and her own labor in her garden, a plot 35x100 feet back of her house stood between her and abject poverty. The morning of the Mantone's visit she was the winter's coal promised to some well thinking coal of Dayton was long overdue. A glance around the house confirmed her apprehensions, and the visiting party knew that in winter the frame house would be a cold place even if all the fires were kept going. One hundred persons a day is the average number of callers at the Dunbar home according to an estimate given by Mr. Malone, and he was informed that most of them are white and from out of town. Residents of Dayton of either race show but little interest in the Dunbar house, and he admitted he did not know where it was located.

Joseph Butler had been engaged to perform the ceremony, but the absence of Miss Whiting prevented his services being needed. The bride-to-be is said to have left town. "Well, I don't mind losing the two dollars that the license cost," Mr. Ames said philosophically to a representative of the AFRO-HOMER PAN as he left the Court House.

Just as the National Association of Women's Clubs has undertaken to administer the home of the late Frederick Douglass at Anacostia, Dunbar Club thus a national organization should administer the Dunbar Home. What has become of the returns from the publishers for the sale of Dunbar's books, nobody seems to know, but Mr. Malone suggests that the copies of his works and other Dun- bar souvenirs ought to be on sale at the Dunbar House and provide a means of revenue.

Joseph Johnson, chief to one of the committees of the United States Senate, was in the city Monday making inquiries about the local political situation. He was told that a result against the senatorial and congressional nominees in the House would be a cause of the attitude of the administration of Mayor Browning. He expressed surprise and said that national leaders of the party were unaware of the reasons for the existing situation. Mr. Johnson was assured that everything possible would be done to clear Harleng and Coolidge, but he would be made against O. Walters.

Following a vigorous protest on the part of leading colored residents of that vicinity, led by City Cancellman Warner T. McGuinn, Mayor Browning vetoed the ordinance authorizing its erection. Robert Fannis, white secretary to Frank A. Pursell, white who owns the theater, one of the promoters of the project said shortly after the ordinance was voted that he was through with the matter. A white man talking with a representative of the American theater said the colored people were fooled to oppose the project. "Your people have no first class theatre," he said "and when some folks want to erect a fine house on a big objective, the theatre is anyway." It is said that the promoters will seek to make capital out of the fact that the government has embittered many colored people and that in face of this opposition, the Mayor would feel under no obligations to the race to repeal the law.

"What Republican administration would have signed the Adamson bill giving to railroad employees more money?" The interests of the colored people are tied up with the workers. "We ought to take lessons from the women and divide our vote. Sunnies and all the workers for woman suffrage had been on one party do you think the women would have been given the vote?" "The colored man must not be a solidarity in voting. Solidarity makes an offensive line, and I firmly believe that the solidarity of the colored vote in the South brought on disaffection and reactionary, and the colored people must learn that their interests do not lie with aristocracy, but with labor." "I must commend the colored man who are behind the comfortable coalition of New York Hewking. They show seams in breaking away from political leaders who care nothing for them but to not their votes." "He's right," said "Eddie Myers well-town East Baltimore, who was standing near," a white man told me to rebel the vote of every colored man in the State."
