BEAU-BRUMELM'S IDEA OF TEACHING A. WOMAN HOW TO REGISTER JAMAICANS WALK AWAY WITH TENNIS MATCHES AT DRUID-HILL PARK Savannah Gets A Black Eye Is Among Thirty Most Immoral Cities In Country According To Federal Investigators VICE LEGALIZED Savannah, Ga., Sept. 9.—According to the report of Government Investigators made public last week, this city is among the thirty most immoral places in the country. The city and its authorities are indicted on three accounts say Federal experts. First, that vice is legalized in Savannah. Cabarets and bawdry houses run by both races for white and colored patronage may obtain a license to do business in the city by paying a fee at the City Hall. Many of the disturbances between the races start in these "joins," which are a breeding place for all kinds of diseases. One of the few segregated vice districts permitted in the U. S. is said to be located in Savannah. This district is bounded on the North by Gwinnet street, on the South by Waldburg street, and the East by West Broad street, and on the West by Cemetery street. The sights that can be seen in this section after dark by any pedestrian are said to be extremely "shocking." Just how bad vice conditions are in Savannah, Federal experts do not say. But they admit that the Georgia Capital is among the "thirty most immoral cities in the United States." Since the publication of the report every newspaper is the city together with influential citizens has called upon the authorities for a "Housecleaning to save Savannah."

The shop was full of patrons, and all chairs were occupied, when one man remarked "comb my hair dry." Right then came the disturbance, for a motorcycle crashed thru the window darted across the room and stopped up short against the water cooler.

Said Child Newbern, North Carolina Physician Arrested For Allowing His Neice To Live With Him NEIGHBORS OBJECTED Declared Blue Eyes, Fai Skin, And Brown Hair Did Not Belong In Colored Newbern, N. C., Sept. 6.—Criminal action against Dr. Phillip Jackson was dismissed in court here, where he was charged with keeping a pure white child in his home. The case grew out of numerous complaints to the police that the Jacksons had in their home and were rearing a three year old girl, distinctive blonde in type, blue eyes and golden hair. Neighbors swore the child was white and even suggested it was the progeny of white parents of the city. At the trial attorneys of the Doctor gave out the following statement— "Dr. Jackson and his wife came to the United States from Jamaica, British West Indies. By the laws of their native land, the English and the native inhabitants are permitted to internmarry. The child in question is a daughter of a brother of Dr. Jackson's wife and is residing with her aunt temporarily. This brother is at present in the United States, together with his wife and other children. At one time he visited New Born, bringing several of his children with him. The appearance of the child that Dr. Jackson and his wife have been caring for in their home is of the same complexion and has the same features as the children which were brought by this brother on his visit. This brother can, and doubtless will, come to New Born with the other children and be in court here for the purpose of verifying these assertions relative to the complexion and features of the child in question." WM. H. JACKSON IN CITY Ex-City Councilman Of Newport R. I. Visiting Relatives Wm. H. Jackson, Republican leader of Newport, Rhode Island, is visiting his aunt, Mrs. Nancy H. Young and cousin, John Hill of 579 Presstman street. For three years Mr. Hill was councilman from the Second Ward in his city and has held the post of city committeeman for the past 33 years. In addition to his other duties, Mr. Jackson is also assistant doorkeeper in the State Legislature. Altho the Second Ward has only 200 colored voters and there are only 700 colored people voting in the whole city, Mr. Jackson declares the town has a colored school teacher, three colored men in the police department, including a patrol driver, janitors in the court house and police station, a colored foreman on the streets, and many workers in other departments.

Hawkins Writes Acceptance Speech Independent Candidate For U. S. Senate, Hard At Work On Important Document SPOKE AT SALISBURY Leaders On Eastern Shore Pledge Hearty Support To His Cause W. Ashbie Hawkins, candidate for the U. S. Senate on the Independent Republican ticket, arrived home, hale and chipper, from his vacation and immediately started to work on his speech of acceptance. This will be an important document, and Mr. Hawkins is spending a good deal of time in order to make it most effective. Although frequently interrupted during his office hours by persons coming in to see him on business, or others '4K' augmentation or Sunspark Hawkins steals a good deal of time to not on his speech. "It's going to show what the Republican party has done for the colored people for the last thirty years," he told a representative of the AFRO-AMERICAN; "it's going to take up the question of schools and show that Maryland has one of the worst school systems in the country. A good many people," he went on, "would be surprised to find out that what educational advantages we have in this state, we owe to the Democrats and not to the Republicans." "It will also lay bare the well known Republican policy of making Democratic hostility an excuse for not doing anything for the colored people, whenever the Republicans are in power." Mr. Hawkins declared he hoped to have his speech completed by the early part of next week, but that it will take a lot of hard work between now and that time. ENTHUSIASTIC AT SALISBURY On Monday Mr. Hawkins spoke at Salisbury, Md., where he was enthusiastically received and given pledges of the support of the leaders. Friday night of last week he addressed the women's meeting at Catonsville and Wednesday of this week was on the program to speak at Lineola, Md. At Hawkins' headquarters it is stated that with his speech of acceptance out of the way, the independent candidate will begin to stump the state in dead earnest. DEMOCRATS SHOULD BE BADLY BEATEN Interstate League Gives Fifty Reasons Why Republicans Should Win This Fall. Washington, D. C., Sept. 3—Robert F. Miller has distributed a number of leaflets showing fifty reasons why Harding should win and fifty reasons why Cox should lose. Among the great sins of the Democratic Party he named: "Injustice, slavery, ku-khu-ism, lynching, Jim Crow, segregation, denial of human Rights, Negro domination nightmare and yellow peril scare." Texas Republicans Put Up Own Ticket Harris County Names Colored Men For Offices From Congressmen Down LILY WHITEISM CAUSE Regular Republicans'Refus ed Jobs To Colored Members Of The Party Houston, Texas, Sept. 9.—For the first time in the history of Harris county so-called "black and tan" Republicans holted the regular party and put up colored men and women for offices within the county from Congressmen down, including state legislature, judges, tax collectors, sheriff, constables, county, school superintendent and justice of the peace. The action took "lily white" Republicans by surprise. District Congressional Conventions were held last Saturday, which were attended by delegates from every county except one. Enthusastic meetings were held. In a statement issued the party declares: Every Republican, both male and female, opposed to "illy-whiteism" is requested to boost the "black and tan" ticket and aid in rolling up a big vote Tuesday, November 2, 1920. Name Of Frederick Douglass, Maryland, Is Turned Down By New York Board Of Awards NO REASON GIVEN Recalls Names Of John Hopkins, John Brown Special to the Afro-American New York, Sept. 9.—Frederick Douglass, Maryland's most illustrious son, famous editor, orator, diplomatist, has been rejected as unworthy a bronze tablet in the so-called "Hall of Fame" in New York University. His name was placed in nomination by Cleveland G. Allen, a newspaper man connected with the Harlem Home News several months ago, and created a sdr throut the country. On five different occasions the Board of Awards of the University has named "famous" Americans for a position in the Hall of Fame, but this year was the first time that a colored man was nominated. The election takes place every five years and the names submitted were passed upon by a committee of one hundred. According to the rules, a candidate must have been dead ten years or more and must answer to the definition of "having been much talked about, chiefly in the good sense, or having accomplished some great achievement." That is the Webster definition of "Famous." In the past twenty-five years, the committee has selected names such as Benjamin Franklin, U. S. Grant, Robert E. Lee, George Washington, Abraham Lincoln, Henry W. Longfellow, George Peabody, Harriett Beecher Stowe, Edgar Allen Poe, Daniel Webster, Eli Whitney, Horace Mann, Andrew Jackson, Thomas Jefferson, Philips Brooks, Jonathan Edwards in all numbering fifty-six persons. Among those selected in years are Roiger Williams; Hopkins of Maryland, John Brown; Phil Sheridan, the Civil War Cavalry leader, Stephen Grud, philanthropist of Pennsylvania, Luefetia Mott, Martha Washington and many others. DID COLOR QUESTION ENTER? Commenting on the rejection of Frederick Douglass the Pittsburgh, Pa. Dispatch says: Was it because he was a Negro? He was the son of a white father and a colored mother. His father was his "owner" until the son ran away from him and was sheltered and educated despite the Fugitive Slave Law. He became an orator famous in the United States and Europe. He was editor of potential newspapers in Rochester, New York and Washington, D. C.] He was appointed minister to Santo Domingo, and to other offices of trust and honor. He was of distinctively intellectual force, fascinating delivery in elecquent composition, more than the peer of several who awarded him many years been awarded the doublefame of a bronze memorial in the "Hall of Fame." He had been memorialized by a monument at Rochester. A plaza had been named for him in Boston, more of such distinguishedment than had been bestowed on most of those who have been tabulated in the Valhalla of heroes of New York University. Rejection of Douglass in no manner tarnishes his memory. Why? Was it for the same reason that induced a noble Venetian to object to the marriage of his daughter, Desdemona, to Otello, the Moor? INSULTED HIS COOK, FLOGGED Employer Would Not Stand For Soult St. Marie, Sept. 9.—The employer of a colored cook here came off victorious in a rough and tumble fight last week. The victor won the compliments of the crowd and the loser got a fine and reprimand from the judge. Two white men were out in a fishing party, when one of them, who thought the colored cook was not moving fast enough, began to abuse her. The employer took up for his cook, and threshed his guest before a crowd of admiring onlookers. The cook went on about her duties as if nothing had happened.

Registration for the first week the public schools will show the natural increase of 11.286 pupils. With the natural increase and the enrollment of children in the new Annex, it is expected that this year's enrollment will show considerably over this figure. Buildings in many sections of the city are being made ready this week for the reception of the scholars. During the summer months, walls were freshened and wood-work painted. The School Board purchased the dwellings at 218-29 Falls Road for a new school in that section. Teachers are also ready for the fall work, many of them having taken brief vacations following their attendance at the summer school. There are several changes in faculties of the elementary schools, and at the high school Charles Woodford has been appointed teacher of machine work in the high school Paul Raue, teacher of English and French. It was not known Wednesday whether Miss May will accept. Dr. West, new Superintendent of Schools in place of Mr. Koch, announced this week that he is much in favor of extending the vocational work in the colored schools as has already been done in the white schools. He had not been able to be declared to establish a junior college high school to take up the matter of appointing a colored assistant superintendent in charge of colored schools. Principals will be at schools from 5 a.m. to 10 p.m. Friday and Saturday. Students will be assigned new pupils, issue transfers and answer questions of parents. DID NOT ENDORSE G. O. P. Tenth Wardes Peter Action Until Next Tuesday Night, Atwood And Knickman Speak Daniel Price threw a bombshell party, meeting of a number of Apartment voters of the 10th Ward, charged that the colored voters of this city had been vainly expecting a fair treatment from white Republicans for the first thirty years. The meeting was held at 1346 E. Madison street, and both W. O. Atwood, regular Republican candidate for Congress, and Dr. Walter E. Knickman, white, independent candidate, were there. Both candidates spoke. Duke Stewart brought out Mr. Peters criticism when he cueled the party candidates and wanted the party candidates endorsed. Action was referred until next Tuesday night, when a permanent organization will be effected. John Brown was elected temporary president and Charles Stewart, secretary. Engineer An unconfirmed story about a worker at Mount Clare, who wrapped his coat around his head and tried to save the life of a white man is being told by brakemen on the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad. It happened Wednesday when a locomotive at Mount Clare exploded in scattering oil and burning seven men, one fatally. Three coloured men—William Cousins, 1528 Carter street, William Bailard, 708 Tyson street, and John Hamilton, 825 Bampson street, were among those injured. These men were at work on a track as the locomotive passed by. Cousins, when approached by a representative of the AFRO-AMERICAN at Franklin Square Hospital Thursday, where he was receiving treatment in the dispensary for burns about his face, neck, and hands so enveloped him that he did not see anyone perform a heroic act. He admitted, however, that he had been told that such happened. John G. Baker, white, independent candidate for Congress in the 1996 election, asserted that he had hered such rumor; and, if true, the man should receive a Heroic Medal. GREENSPRING Greenspring, Md. Sept. 9—Mrs. Herminetta Chew entertained at dinner Sunday in honor of her nephew Mr. Herminetta Chew, Baltimore. Among those present were Mrs. J. Bannon of New Haven Count, Mrs. C. H.

Cannon last Saturday. Miss Blica Wolin and Mrs. Tellitia motivated to Greenspring, last Mughery. Authorities Say He May Recover From Gash In The axe proved a better weapon than a razor in a duel in a house at 34 North Spring street, last week. It all came about over the inability of Clarence Classen, 30 years old, to realize that his rival William Oliver had actually beaten him out by marrying Miss Martha Hill. Both men lived at the same house and had been in love with Miss Hill for some time, carrying on their rivalry in a friendly way. On August 26th, Oliver got Miss Hill to steal away with him to Rev J. A. Barnes, 1215 E. Monument street, where they were married, then they returned to their Spring Street home to live. Classen did not believe the couple were married and still continued his attentions to Mrs. Oliver. Friday the two men got into an armed clash and Oliver ordered Classen out of the house. As far as can be learned, Classen then secured a razor and made after Oliver who grabbed an axe and let him have it. Classen was left for dead on the floor where he was buried in the Northwestern district. After striking the blow, Oliver went to work as usual, but afterwards gave himself up. Classen was taken to St. Joseph hospital, and the attending physician reports although seriously injured. The M.D. Oliver who was in the house at the time has not yet been arrested. A PRIMER FOR WOMEN VOTERS This department is being conducted by Mrs. Augusta T. Chissell, a member of the Colored Women's Suffrage Club of Maryland, for the benefit of women who wish to inform themselves in regard to their newly acquired duties and privileges. These women are invited and should be directed to Mrs. Augusta T. Chissell, care of the AFRO-AMERICAN. QUESTION "What question will be asked men on registration day? Constance." ANSWER "Residence" Name in full Are? Can I fill infillation? Country? Color? Punctet or election District in which applicant resides? County or City Legislature District in which applicant lives? State? Whether a qualified voter? Date of Application for registration? QUESTION. As this is my first time to vote and some people are advising an independent spirit I am thinking of supporting the Democratic ticket, what think you—? ANSWER. Here the question naturally arises, how we clair lenses; should we ching to our family love or is it advisable at this particular time to forsake the party that always done the most for us, to lie to one that offers no inducement, and then offer election day has so often sought to remove those rights and privileges guaranteed us by the constitution. It seems to me of the two evils the Republican party is certainly the least. Should a woman register as an "Independent" will be answered by Mrs. Chisell next week.

The School Board met at the Franklin building September 1st, 1820, with Dr. Abram Simon, the new president presiding. Dr. Frank W. Ballon, new Superintendent of Schools, submitted his new improvement program for schools to the board for its approval. Dr. Ballon said: "Washington in common with other cities has been unable during the past four or five years to build buildings as fast as the population has increased; consequently, we are confronted with a serious lack of the children of the District of Columbia. This situation has affected the education of the children in two ways. It has resulted in placing Children in both elementary and high schools on part time, thereby depriving them of a full day's education to which they are entitled. It has resulted in the crowding of 45 or even 50 pupils into a single class room under one teacher. The only relief for either undesirable condition is to be found thru the construction of additional buildings." As the speech was about to address Gov. C. C. Smith of the Northwestern Citizen's Press, a pewed attack on Koscoe C. Bruce, assistant superintendent of colored schools, repeating accusations of inefficiency and maladministration, Mr. Smith was sharply replied to by the president of the board, who said: "That the matter was now in the hands of superintendent of the schools, and as long as I am in this chair no one will force the hand of the superintendent." Chief Justice Smith, of the District Court of Appeals has refused a court order to the fringe issue to highest tribunal for decision until after November election. Josephine Berry, who was convicted of murdering a woman here last fall, and sentenced October 30, 1918 to hang, will hang September 24, 1925, unless President Wilson grants murderous sentence. The murderous sentence was sentenced June 7, time a respite was granted by the Department of Justice until August 5th, a second respite was granted until September 10.

Excello Products Department U DENTON And Think of The Prizes But the Prizes Are Not All IN BED WITH A COBRA IN BED WITH A COBRA A story from Barbados Times An adventure of any kind with a cobra-de-capello is at once unpleasant and dangerous, and the idea of having one of these reptiles as a bed fellow creates a sensation of shuddering repugnance. Yet such a thing has occurred, and the man lived to tell his experience. The cobra-de-capello of India and Ceylon is the most deadly of all venomous snakes the natural mortality from its bite exceeding five thousand human beings in India alone. This is formidable, seepen usually is about six feet long, shender and of a brownish color, with a suggestion of blue under- neath. When angered or excited and about to strike, the cobra lifts a third of its length from the ground and spreads the mucal runs until the neck expands into a broad shell-like hood of terrifying appearance. Numerous stories of exciting adventures with cobras in the bovine world, and the following thrilling experience, related by the man who went through it, is probably unique; "I might have slept some four or five hours, and a dreamless and something, it might have been a sleeping sleep it was; but certain wall-lizard or a large beetle, fell clanking metal light, advanced it is—let sociologists say what they will, and skeptics throw doubt by which lay stretched at my side, and the noise of the handfuls on the assertions of meta-physicians—that, before I broke, raised itself, with a lay his head, coming steps, lo! one after another, and in my dreamless slumber, I then, for the first time I saw it, had a visible perception of peril—saw the hood, the terrible crest a consciousness of the hovering, glistening in the moonshine.

How to describe my feelings I know not; but, as we all have read and heard, that if the eyes of a watcher are steadily fixed on the countenance of a sleeper for a certain length of time the slumberer will be sure to start up—wakened by the mysterious magnetism of a recondite principle of chivalry, so it was that, with shut eyes and drowsed eyes, I conferred upon me to detect the living from the presence of danger near me, to see, though sleep-blind, the formless shape of a mysterious horror crouching besides me; and, as if the peril that was my nightmare was of a nature to be quickened into fatal activity by any motion on my part, felt in my mind the possibility of lying quite still; so that, when I at last awoke and felt that as I lay with my face toward the root there was a thick, heavy, cold, creeping thing upon my chest, I stirred not, nor uttered a word of panic.

The program of the branch is in keeping with the program of the Baltimore Association, and nothing has been overlooked in setting up a program to meet local needs. To the surprise of all, the building that seemed so large, in fact, too large for Baltimore, has become too small in less, than two years. The dormitory section, consisting of 52 rooms with 72 beds, are occupied all of the time, and 25 cats are used in the educational rooms to take care of the transient open. Even with this, often men are turned away to community homes for accommodation. The religious work will be stressed in every department this year. The association is to have morning chapel three times a week, a conference of religious workers weekly, and a religious meeting every Sunday. The association will hold a big evangelistic campaign in South Baltimore at Leadenhall Baptist Church, October 11th to 22nd, and Dr. A. Clayton Powell of New York has been secured, also Mr. Lewis, the singing evangelist of Philadelphia. The association will conduct Bible School this year, beginning Oct. 26th, and the following ministers will teach: Drs. Frederick Douglas of Bethel, M. H. Davis of St. John, W. W. Walker of Madison St. Presbyterian Church, and Beale Elliott, of Sharon Baptist Church. The National Educational, Service Committee offers seventy five scholarships to ex-service men in the following subjects: Business, Arithmetic, Public Speaking, Book-keeping, Business Economics, and an Elementary Course. These classes will be held at the building and they are open to any man that saw service in the last war. Any subject may be bead by ten men applying for the same. The Physical Department will trace a full program. Besides regular gym classes for seniors, juniors and professional men, there will be special groups for advance work. The slogan—"Every member use the Gym and Pool." The swimming pool will be in operation about the last of the month. Mr. Allen E. Morris is in charge of physical work, and he is full of "pop."

WALKIN'R PREPARATIONS FOR SALE AT CORNELIAS Tells Afro-American Readers His Own Story Of Battle Friday Night IS AFTER DEMPSEY The Local Fighter Has Twice Beaten Billy Miske And Challenges Jack The story published in a local newspaper last week to the effect that the fight between Kid Norfolk of this city and Jamaica Kid of New York last Friday night was a "fake" and more or less of a frame up has caused a quite among local fight fans, and admirers of Norfolk who have never yet had an occasion to lose any of their enthusiasm for the "Kids" ability and sportsmanship as aighter. Investigation into the probable motive for the article, by a reporter of the AFRO-AMERICAN, however, showed that some dissatisfaction among the whites over the fact that the first bout of the Quarry Club was headed by a colored boxers instead of whites together with the fall, one well-known local fight promoter to secure these two stars for his own use, was the real cause of the charges in the article that the fight was not on the level. When seen by a representative of the AFRO-AMERICAN, Kid Norfolk who resides with his wife at 222 East street emphatically denied that there was a word of truth in the article, and that he had never in all his ring career had occasion to "throw" any light. He decried that this was the sixth battle with the sparring partner of Jack Dempsey, and that although he has repeatedly outcasted his man he was unable to put over the punn that would send his opponent to the land of "nod." He also said that the New Yorker was one of the toughest men in fighting ring today, and few guardians of the squared circle could ever hope to wipe him over such a short distance as last Friday night's poll. Norfolk opined that he would hardly get a chance at Dempsey within the year, but that Dempsey would likely choose him before Harry Wins fighting that he. (Norfolk) would be the easier of the two to dispose of. The fact that Norfolk is the only man that holds decisions over Pury snake, who lost to Jack Dempsey Labor Day, is sufficient claim for his right to a fight with the champion. Norfolk defeated Snake in October of 1917 in Boston, and again in June of 1919 in Pittsburg. The free heartedness, good sportsmanship, and general gentlemanly bearing of Norfolk have won a host of admirers in this city as well as other towns in when he has fought, and it is the consensus of opinion that these will more than onset any sinister influence which the newspaper article might tolerate. Nortolk expects to light again in this city the latter part of this month. He is scheduled to meet Pinky Lewis who hails as a heavyweight from Tuska, Oklahoma. The "Kid" left the city Tuesday for New York, where he has his training quarters and where he will get in condition for his night with the Westerner.

Athletic Meet On Columbus Day Mayer Broening | Says City Will Put Up Necessary Funds In a statement to the Afro-American under date of September 3, Mayor Broening promises the colored boys of the city an athletic meet at Drudgill Hill in Columbus Day. By annotating that city will furnish the funds for this meet the Mayor has made himself solid with city athletes. The Afro-American called the Mayor's attention to the fact that the Public Athletic League was financing a city wide meet at Patterson Park to meet this city boys only. He promised to work up another up with Dr. Burdick and other officials of the League. The Athletics alliance of the city had begun to be very much dissatisfied with League's practice of excluding them every year from the fall games. Following the conference with Dr. Burdick Mayor Broening issued the following statement. "With further reference to your communication hearing on the athletic games, I am writing to advice you treat in response to my suggestion that the colored boys be given an opportunity for sports training. Dick advises that if the necessary funds can be provided that we would be very glad to arrange for the meet on Columbus Day, October 12th at Bridg Hill Park. I have assured him of the necessary co-operation so that this could be done. He gives me the information that there are 18,846 white boys at school and 4661 working, and there are 5955 colored boys at school and 556 working, this is, between the ages of 7 and 18 years. That in the enrollment of the public parks, there were enrolled 8946 white boys and 223 colored boys, and that his department is endeavoring to extend the opportunity for attendance with their respective numbers. WM. F. BROENING Dr. Burdick of the public Athletic League is enthusiastic over the Columbus Bay meet and declares it will be open to all the boys in the state. It will be too cold he declares, for swimming, and some of the events may be continued, but as far as possible will have honest to goodness athletic meet with read prizes for the winners. Blanks will be out in a few days, and every effort made to get them into the hands of anxious competitors.

He handled six chances, five of which any ordinary shortstop would never have seen. He start- ed right in the initial fanning. Hark- ness smote the ball on the nose- gong over second base a mile a minute. Mr. Brown sticks his gloved hand in the way and zowie! ball sticks there. In the fourth Leslie hits one right through the pitcher's box, again Mr. Brown gets in front of the ball, scoops it up and, bingoe, Mr. Leslie out at first base. The same thing was repeated three times thereafter, the only one he did not stop being Harkness' smash in the seventh frame. The Hilldale team defeated the Lit Bros. team of Philadelphia, 3-2. SAM LANGFORD A HAS BEEN Once Top Notch Pugilist Makes Sorry Showing In Preliminaries To Dempsey-Miste Battle New York, Sept. 7.—Think of it ladies and gentlemen the once famous Sam Langford, one of the shiftiest and hardest hitting fighters in the ring, doing a six round preliminary to the Dempsey-Miske battle on yesterday. How the mighty have fallen. Bill Tate, sparring partner to Dempsey gave Langford one of the worst beatings the "tar baby" has ever had in his long career. Except for the fact that Tate was good natured and sorry for the old man, he would have put him to sleep most any time. Several times he was on his way, but Tate would back away, grinning at the smaller man's pitiful efforts at getting in close enough to land just one sound clout. SMITH WINS D. C. CHAMPIONSHIP Washington, D. C., Sept. 9.—Sylvester Smith won the championship of the District of Columbia on the Walker Memorial Tennis Courts this week by defeating Johnnie Wilkerson, 6-2; 4-6; 4-6; 6-2; 6-1. Tally Holmes, former champion did not play on account of a sore leg. Smith and Holmes won the doubles from McGriff and Norman, 6-4; 6-4; 6-1. Although R. Clark of Jamaica, National Singles Champion, was here for a few days he did not enter the tournament. He defeated Sylvester Smith in an exhibition match, 6-2; 6-1. Dr. M. E. Rhetta and a number of Baltimoreans were spectators. CATONSVILLE SPLITS EVEN WITH NEWARK SHOE The Catsonsville Social Grants split even with the Newark Shoe Company Sunday at Catsonsville in a double header winning the first game by the score of 7 to 1 and losing the second contest 8 to 4. A fine funnings contest. Dorsey pitched fine ball allowing the visitors only six hits and struck out 9 batters and was tight in pinches. The feature of the game was the batting of Randayy. B. Hayes and the playing of Ferrell. The team was starred for the losses. Next, Sunday Catsonsville will play the Lincoln A. at Ellicott City. Nearly 500 people saw the game. The score.

BY JACK JOHNSON This is the sixth of a series of articles written for the "AFRO" by the great fighter himself. (Copyright, 1920, Lowrie & Black Co.) In other articles I have told why and how I left the United States. In my next articles I will tell of my travels in other countries. However, starting where I left off in my escape from the United States: After my arrival at Montreal my presence was discovered and I was ordered to appear in King's court, which is the high court, similar to our supreme court. Gray haired judges were on the bench and as my case was called I wondered what they wanted of me in Canada. The first question put to me by the prosecutor was, "Where are you going?" "To France," I said. "Why did you come to Canada?" "So I could get a boat to go to France." the United States?" got for the boat?" he examined the ticket, when I was the ticket purchased?"

"How and under what name was the ticket purchased?" "The "Under the name of John Arthur Johnson." "We cannot hold this man for extradition," said the prosecutor, "because he is simply going through Canada to meet the boat on which he is to take passage for France." I stayed in Montreal four days after the trial in King's court and then started for France. It was in the latter part of July and we got into a French port about I o'clock in the morning. I slept right through until morning when I awoke and looked out of the window of my stateroom. And then right there I got one of the worst scares I ever had in my life. What did I see? It looked to me as if there were a hundred finally I mistered up courage and took another chance on policemen standing on the docks. I became a bit gloomy but looking out the window. It was then that I saw my old friend, Loen See, and I beckoned him to come aboard. When he came on the ship I asked him what the cops were doing out on the docks. "Oh, you needn't worry. Everything's fine and O. K.," said See and then I began to feel better. At $ o'clock we went ashore and the movie men and hundreds of regular photographers were on the job to get some shots at us. We had breakfast and then started for Paris by auto. I stayed in Paris and gave shows in the Folklore theater, showing them a bit about ball punching, boxing and the fancy dance—as I performed it. I stayed there a month and then journeyed to England to work in music halls there. After London I returned to Paris to start training for my match with Jim Johnson. It was in this fight that I broke my left arm in the third round. With seven more rounds to go I fought the best I could with one hand and out-pointed Jim Johnson in the match. Four months later, after my arm had healed, I fought Frank Moran. At this fight—I call it one of the greatest and well-dressed affairs ever staged—society was on hand in numbers. The ladies wore all the latest styles in fancy dress and the gentlemen were in dress suits. It was the most elaborate prize fight I ever saw, and it drew over 450,000 francs. The fight was pulled in the Vendome Devere, where many famous bicycle races have been held. Twenty-five thousand people were present. I won by a walk. Next week Jack Johnson will write about Bull Fighting, the national sport of Spain. SPORTING DOPE Evans hit a three bagger to center hold in the third inning of the second game Sunday. It was one of the longest ever seen on the local held. The bat went nearly to the score board. Evans came all the way home when Hopkins threw to third and found nobody there to receive it. Third baseman Timliec of the Giants drew a laugh from the crowd when he lectured to his bat about its failure to get a hit in the first game Sunday. His next time up Timliec beat out a hit to Lewis. He was hurt a little while later sliding to third and had to be taken from the game. Before meeting the Black Sox on Sunday, the Winston-Salem Giants lost three, won two and tied one in their series with the Norfolk In declaring that Kid Norfolk had not tried to knock out Jamaica Kid Friday night, the sporting writer of the Sun, didn't figure on Jack Ward, white, referee. Ward is a former abandoned heavy weight champion and as a boxing expert his word goes a long ways. Ward says Kid Norfolk is a great fighter and Jamaica Kid was no match for him and further that any talk about a fake is absurd. Ward adds this:— Jamaica Kid, in an effort to keep from being knocked out, avoided Norfolk as much as possible and his backing and sidesteping made it hard for the Kid to land his sleep-producer. Jamaica fought a defensive fight throughout and never had a chance to win. Jack Johnson has such a winning way with folks that the authorities are always afraid he will get too much freedom. Jack is in the Care County Jail, Geneva near Eighn County, Illinois. The sheriff said last week: "The reports which declare Johnson is permitted to go automobile riding are false," said Poole. "He is not allowed outside of the jail. He boxes a little in his cell, but puts on no prize lights for galleries of spectators." The series between the Cuban Stars and the Brooklyn Royal Giants to be played in the American League Park, Washington, September 21, 22, 23, will draw a big crowd. The Cubans have gotten 4 new players from Cuba. The Royals under the direction of John Henry Lloyd beat the Chicago American Giants in Brooklyn, August 22, and a few days later the Hillsdale team. Sporting Dope writer of the AFRO-AMERICAN believes the Brooklyn Giants to be the best base ball team players in the world. But he doubts very much whether the Cuban-Stars are the second best team. Second place, probably goes to the Hillsdale team or the Bacharachs. "To France," I said, "Why did you come to Canada?" My answer was, "I do." The Winston-Salem, North Carolina Giants, who beat the Black Sox out of their three games played here, are owned by a colored corporation of six men. K. T. Timlick, 1100 Trade St., Winston-Saler, captain; Will Harding, president; captain; Will Harding, president; Will Moore, secretary; J. W. Hayes, treasurer, and E. L. Lawson, assistant treasurer. This corporation has bought the ground and plans building its own park next year. Harrison, of the Black Sox, formerly played with the Winston-Salem team before coming to this city. of the first game Sunday, making 5 hits. Joe Lewis got 4 in Monday's game. Lefty Smith was the batting star Thursday, Friday and Saturday of this week the Black Sox are playing the Winston-Salem Giants in North Carolina. Errors on the part of the infield of the Norfolk All Stars made them lose a game to the Hillsdale last Saturday in Atlantic City by score of 7 to 4. "Scrappy" Brown, shortstop for the Black Sox, is reported to have jumped to the Hillsdale team of Darby, Pa., where he is receiving a salary of $250 a month. Scrappy played with the Hillsdales on last Saturday. Players of the Winston-Salem Giants are paid a salary varying from $120.00 to $200.00 a month. Rex Athletic Club of Washington will be seen at Westport Park in a double-header next Sunday. Williams playing right field for the Giants threw out Blaney Hall on an ordinary safe single in the first game Sunday. Since an injury to his leg, Hall has lost some of his speed. In their games at home so far, the Black Sox have won 49 and lost 23, of an average of 679. With three men on bases and the score 3 to 3 in the early part of the game on Sunday, the Graver struck out and Harry Williams fled to left for the third out. Lefty Smith made a bad error fielding Williams hard hit ball in the third inning of the first game Sunday. Williams got three bases and scored when Harris' bounder popped out of Ridgley's hand. In the seventh inning of the first game Harrison singled, stole second and third in big league style and scored, while Gray and Harris were busy, running down Greyer. He put a good deal of pep in the game. The Sox had numerous opportunities to score from the second game Sunday but they could not produce the winning hit. THE AFRO-AMERICAN Sox Divide Sunday's Bill Win First 9-2, But Lose Second 9-2 Winston Salem, N. C. Giants came to Baltimore Sunday and split even at the Black Sox Park, Westport in a double header. The Black Sox won the first game, 9-2, the Southerners the second 5-3. "Dark Night" Smith pitched for the Sox in the first and let the visitors down with 2 hits, but for the 7 errors behind him by his team mates, he would have scored shut out. FIRST GAME already sent in --- SECOND GAME. Sykes went on the mound for the Black Sox in the second game and out pitched Hopkins, but errors by Lewis and Ridgley allowed the Southerners to stage a ninth inning rally and break the tie score 3 to 1. N, C. Team Hill Parker And Loga For A Total Of 13 Hits Bad weather enabled the N. C. Giants and the Black Sox to play only one game of their scheduled double header, Monday. Parker pitched for the Black Sox and held the Southerners scorless until the seventh inning. When they fell upon him for three runs, The Sox still held the lead by the score of 6 to 3, when the Giants came to bat in the eighth inning and banged out 4 runs, enough to win. With Harris on second base, Smith in short and Lewis on third, the Black Sox had a patched line up. Both Lewis and Gray made 4 bits each. Score by innings: Winston Giants 0 0 0 0 0 0 3 4 0 Black Sox 2 1 0 0 0 2 1 0 0 Two base hits, Hill, Thomas, Pennie, Lewis, Williams, Three base hits, Hill, Sacrificer, Lewis, Thomas, "Base on balls, Williams 3, Stolen bases, North Fisher, Lewis, Evans, Thomas, 6, Smith.

SOX UPAGAINTS TOUGH PROPOSITION Well boys the manager of the Rex Athletic Club of Washington, D.C., it looks like a bad Sunday for the Sox as he said that it was going to rain; I mean rain hits, he said they expect to take a double header from the Sox the same as they did the last time they were here. In my way of looking at it, they will have the time of their lives to get a run over the pan with "Darknight" Smith and Logan on hand to feed them with benders. With Smith in good shape they will be lucky to see them, as they look like peas to me when he sends them up. NORFOLK DEFEATED Made Punching Bag Of New Yorker Before 5.000 At Fifth Regiment Armory Kid Norfolk of Baltimore made a punching bag of Jamaica Kid of New York in a twelve round fight at the Fifth Regiment Armory last Friday night. Neither man scored a knock down, but the local man had the New Yorker in the ropes all the time. While Norfolk Kid was unable to put over a knock out blow, he gave Jamaica Kid a terrific beating especially in the clinches and closed his left eye so that it was necessary for Sam Prock, white, to take the New Yorker to the hospital to have three stitches made in it. The bout was one of the best seen in local circles. In the preliminaries Mickey Dougherty of Baltimore, was disqualified after claiming a fake injury, and the decision was given to Robie Robideau. Mixed bouts between white and colored boxes are not permitted in this city but the fans claim that Robideau is a colored man. Dixie Kid had Battling Spriggs pretty near the land of dreams, when Joe Tipman, referee interrupted the contest in the fifth Half of the armory was reserved for white. A number of scats on the colored side were left vacant by persons unwilling to stand for the Jim Crow arrangements. BASEBALL WESTPORT BASEBALL PARK REX ATHLETIC CLUB, Wash. D. C.

NOT "AT HOME" Friends Discover That Pugilist Is "Out" As Much As He Is "In" Chicago, Ill., Sept. 9.—Its some nice little time Jack Johnson is having at the Kane County Jail, where he is being held as a Federal prisoner under conviction to serve one year for alleged violation of the Mann slave act. A visitor called at the jail last week and asked to see Jack. "Sorry," said a deputy sheriff. "He just stepped out. He's gone for an automobile ride. Won't you sit down and wait till he returns?" "Was that Johnson I saw getting into an automobile with some [Portrait of a man in a suit with a tie]. women?" asked the visitor. "Yes, that was he," replied the deputy. "The visitor waited—several hours. Harvest time in Kane county makes night riding enjoyable. As nightlight approached the deputy shifter began to realize that Johnson was waiting a night at it. "Perhaps you can call again," he said. "I'll be glad to see that you are an evening with my Johnson some other time—presumably one of his night-at-home nights." It is said Johnson is allowed to train under Federal. States county auspices for prize-fighting. His training quarters in the Kane county jail are visited daily by a flight promoter from Chicago and a sparring partner from Elgin. Special tickets for bouts each afternoon are issued to privileged citizens of Geneva and elsewhere, it is said, by Sheriff Nelson.

DISCOVERED IN CHURCH John Wesley Congregation Witnesses Strange Scene At Sunday Service While conducting a healing service at John Wesley M. E. Church Sunday before last, Rev. Lorenzo A. Anderson, well known faith healer, had the surprise of his life when the wife he had long since thought dead, rushed forward and made herself known. The woman was Mrs. Anna Eliza Anderson, and she and her husband had been separated for the past seventeen years. Having received what he regarded as reliable information that his wife was dead, Dr. Anderson took unto himself another companion twelve years ago. In order to straighten out the tangle, the faith healer instituted proceedings for an absolute divorce from Mrs. Anderson on Thursday of last week. When seen by a reporter of the Afro-American at his home, 1 N. Vincent street, he stopped long enough from ministering to the sick to say that he was willing to correct an honest mistake. YORK RITERS AT PERKINS SQUARE. Big Crowd Expects To Turn Out September 19th—Cornerstone of Temple to be Laid.

Brown Says Hospital Only Asks Patients To Pay Hospital Expenses Dr. Harry F. Brown, superintendent of Provident Hospital denied this week that the Hospital charged $75 for operations on patients suffering with appendicitis and $25 for two weeks board. The denial was by way of reply to a statement made in last week's Afternoon American by Mrs. Blanch Thompson 332 Camel street, who considered taking her son to Provident Hospital for an operation, but later took to S. Josephs "Provident Hospital has not ceded such fees" declared "we only charge for pounds." TRUCK J. DR. STEWART OFF TO FRISCO Will Attend World Sunday School Convention In Japan Next Month Rev. Chas. E. Stewart, pastor of Ebenezer, A. M. E. Church, this city, left the city on Monday for San Francisco to attend the World Sunday School Convention meeting in Tokio, Japan next month. For a time, race prejudice of a number of white ministers and laymen prevented Dr. Stewart from obtaining passage on the boat carrying other delegates to Japan. He insisted on going, however, and evidently made the white officials ashamed of themselves. Dr. Stewart carried with him many photographs of Baltimore folks and buildings, which he will show on a stereocopter machine in order to give the Japanese an idea of the life among colored people in the United States. During his absence, various ministers will fill the pulpit, and the congregation give him; the congregation gave him a collection of $1400.

Burkett, with offices located at 514 St. Paul street completed his twenty-first year in business as a real estate dealer Wednesday of last week. Mr. Burkett celebrated the anniversary quietly at his beautiful country home on the Old Frederick Road, in Catonsville, and later in the day motored out to the Timonium Fair with friends. Mr. Burkett was born in Howard County, Md., forty-six years ago as the son of Richard H. and Sara (Jones) Burkett. He attended the public schools of Baltimore, obtained his bachelor's degree from Lincoln University and his master's degree together with the degree in law from Howard University in Washington. Mr. Burkett picked out Indianapolis, Ind., for his field but changed his mind after staying there one year, and came to Balti- more in 1899, where he opened his real estate office. For sixteen years he was the only licensed real estate broker of color, and is now the oldest in the city. He married Miss Kate Hurst. In the twenty one years Mr. Burkett has been dealing in real estate, he has handled over one thousand pieces of property, most of them sold to, home owners. Some of the property transactions have totaled between $35,000 and $50,000. In 1894 he organized the Exchange Building and Loan Association and in 1914 the Profit Sharing Building and Loan Association. To perpetuate the large business he has built up, Mr. Burkett plans to incorporate together with Attorneys Clarke L. Smith and J. Howard Payne and others. The incorporators will take all of the stock and none will be for sale. Persons, who have bought property from him, however, will each receive one share of stock in the concern as an anniversary gift. Several hundred shares of stock, it is said will be distributed in this manner. Divorces Granted Through their lawyer, Roy S.

PRESS RUN LAST WEEK 10,860 The Crisfield Times, published in Crisfield, Md., is a white Democrat weekly paper that is constantly calling attention to the mis- erable condition of the colored schools in Somerset County. It would not be a bad thing for the colored people of Somerset County to see if Democrats will not give them what Republicans have re- fused. The undertakers of Georgina have organized—News Item. Now comes the high cost of dying. Strike-breaking colored longshoremen in New York were discharged by the company, and the white trinkers given their jobs back. There is no excuse for being a trawl in New York where the unions are open to both races, and where there are several thousand colored men already belonging to longshoremen's unions. Absence of body may sometimes be better than presence of mind. A good many people would give anything if they could just get another chance to go to school, and there are some others who would care if they never heard a school bell ring. Fortunately the former are mostly old and the latter mostly young. The movies have really arrived. The Pope has posed for the camera. The American Legion has proved a big help in getting ex-soldiers into U.S. vocational schools. If the time ever comes when one national order can close the doors of the church to another fraternal order, that minute the church loses its universal character embodied in the words, "whoseover will, let him come." The only decent thing that can be said about the Duluth, Minn. teaching, is that courts are punishing the mob leaders with fail sentences. THE HUNGER STRIKE. A colored prisoner in Pennsylvania jail lived forty-three days before starving to death on a hunger strike. If the Lord Mayor of Cork Ireland, is alive today, he has fasted twenty-eight days only, and may still have some days of self-inflicted torture ahead of him. The failure of the two prisoners above mentioned to win immediate release from jail by refusing to eat is in direct contrast to action in the case of women suffrages who picketed the White House and the House of Commons in the effort to impress President Wilson and the House of Parliament with the importance of women voting. When women refused to eat they were almost immediately discharged. Aside from this feature of the case, the efficacy of the hunger strike is worth noting. Nothing the Lord Mayor of Cork could do would win more friends for the cause of Irish freedom that His Lordships willingness to lay down his life, if necessary for the cause he espouses. The Lord Mayor declares that Ireland is a republic and has a right to run its own government without interference from England. English troops in Ireland arrested him for what amounts to treason, and have imprisoned him. The mayor insists that English courts martial have no jurisdiction over him and refuses to accept their sentence. So it stands, meantime, day by day, Mayor Terence McSwinley gets closer and closer to death, and the sight of parrydrom rakes the fires of revolution in the island from one end to the other. England will pay dearly for every moment of punishment and agony she has brought upon the mayor of Cork. Patriots in all times have found it a pleasure to die for their country by the saints, the firing squad, and the polen cup, but certainly THE EDITORIAL PAGE OF THE AFRO-AMERICAN none of them shows a more perspept patriotism; than the man who willingly starves himself to death. WOMEN ARE NOT MEN This is a perfectly obvious statement, nevertheless for the sake of emphasis, it will bear repeating, "Women are not men." Politics may get over the entrance of women as voters in the coming election, but they "will never look the same." The influence of the woman voter may not be at once apparent, but we predict that the spell binders and the gratters are going to find it hard to deceive the intuitions of the "weaker sex" and get them into the band wagon. Now and again the majority of the women may be fooled just like the majority of the men have been fooled, but women learn faster. A political observer, who has been over the Eastern field in the past few weeks remarked that the men are so sick and tired of the dirty politics practiced by the Republican leaders upon colored voters, that they have grown callous and careless. Not so the women, he added. "You can put it down that colored women are not going to vote for a candidate who is 'lily white.' The colored men might, but colored women, never." This is a part of the uncertainty that colored women have injected into the local political situation. Fresh, vigorous and unsophisticated, they may yet succeed in showing the less "deadly" males the truth of the principle that "MEN ARE ABOVE PARTIES." THE MAN WITHOUT A CONSCIENCE. Everyone who knows Ovtigton P. Weller, white, candidate for the United States Senate, knows that he is making the fight, of his life to be elected. Mr. Weller is boss of the Republican party, having taken the place of the late William F. Stone. Decided several years ago when he ran for governor on the Republican ticket, he now stakes everything on winning a seat in the U. S. Senate. Should he succeed he will intrench himself for the next six years in the place of permanent leadership of the party in Maryland. Should he fail, the party will be well rid of the type of leadership responsible for the rebellion of the colored voters and the disaffection among white Republicans. It is 'aimest inconceivable that thinking people of Maryland would allow Mr. Weller to keep hold upon the political affairs of the state, in a position from which he excludes the participation of colored and white men of ability. Had Mr. Weller's leadership meant a proper handling of the constable affair in the city, or the nomination of a man like Judge Morris Super for the Senate, then he would have deserved hearty support. When he openly makes overtures to the independent Democrats, as he is doing now, and rejects the advice and help of the best people, he places his party where it cannot support him in good faith. As an indication of the fact that Mr. Weller in his political career has been both Democrat and Republican, and got his position as Roads Commissioner because of his active affiliation with both parties, we quote the following from Paul Winchester in the last issue of the Frederick (Md.) Citizen, a white weekly: "The absurdity of the claims made by Mr. Weller to be called the "builder of good roads in Maryland," has aroused much indignation among Democrats generally, and especially among friends of the late Governor Crothers. The whole system of good roads was planned and to a considerable extent carried out before Mr. Weller was filled of the certainly before it was known whether he was a Democrat or a Republican. "When he was recommended to Governor Goldsborough for chairmanship of the Roads Commission, inquiries were made as to his political affiliation, and nobody seemed to know. As head of the Roads Commission he did very little work, and he choose as his assistant Mr. Zeuck, who was the active man on the job during the entire Goldsborough regime. "Mr. Weller 'went back' on his patron, Governor Goldsborough, who had drawn him out of obscurity, and enabled him to become prominent in public affairs. He 'went back' on the late William F. Stone after he used him to gain a hold in the city politics. He 'went back on Fabian' Sparks and the Baltimore county Republicans, and it is said that in the later days of in humble obscurity in Baltimore county. "His father was an honest and humble hotel keeper near (Reistertown, and it said by the neighbors that from the time of Mr. Weller's return from the North, when he amassed a considerable fortune, until their death a few months ago, the Republican candidate of the State never near them, nor did he ever have anything to do with them. "And yet, from time to time, he issued Pharasical and solemn addresses to the people of Maryland as to what they should do in the management of their public affairs—which sound to those who are familiar with his personal record like Satan issuing a rebuke to sin." The Amsterdam News announces that it has no enthusiasm for either branch of the Odd Fellows meeting next week in Wilmington and New York. No one objects to the Odd Fellows having a family row, but they ought to have sense enough to keep the fuss away from the public. CAN GARVEX WIN IN AFRICA? In the near future, Marcus Garvey, genius of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, and head of the Black Star Line leaves New York to take up his residence in Liberin, Africa, over which field he has been selected leader and potentate. Naturally the question recurs, "Can Garvey Win?" which is interpreted to mean can he succeed in uniting the colored people-of-Africa into a league or confederation to drive out the Europeans? Opinion is divided. The Norfolk (Va.) Journal and Guide considers Mr. Garvey "unreliable" and adds: "Mr. Garvey may be honest, but we do not believe he can make his business a success by open, war on the Christian nations which control all of the ports in the West Indies and Africa, and who are not going to allow him entry for his ships, which he has yet to get, into their ports, in Africa and the West Indies because he claims to be President-General of Africa, and he has not yet decided he can do no business, therefore investment in his business would be unsafe." Nor does the Virginia newspaper think the representation of 175 delegates at the New York convention sufficient to make anything real out of "blather-site anties and outgivings about a mythical African Republic." On the other hand the New York Crusader takes the opposite point of view in declaring that the Garvey movement is "moving forward toward the goal of Negro liberty, upon which are set the eyes of all intelligent and race proud Negroes." Because the movement is "away from the old fogie ideas of the lick-spitile serviles, "Naturally," the Crusader says, "these creatures will oppose it," and adds: "Africa as a continent was not conquered by force, has never been held solely by force and can never be so be held by an alien race. Fraud, hypocrisy and the insidious doctrine of caucasian Christianity (widely differentiated from early Christianity), together with the fact that the natives have not yet as a general rule recognize the necessity for united action against the invader, have proven far more potent factors in holding Africa under European domination than have the European fleets, which cannot, because of raplas and cataracts near the sea, ascend the African rivers, and the great military machines of Europe which melt away like snow before the coastal climate of Africa, and are barred in heavy equipment and with their big guns from the healthy African plateaus with protecting scarp of precipitous mountain walls." Whether we agree with the "antics" of Marcus Garvey or not, whether we side with those who call him a "fake and an ignorantus" or with those who believe him divinely called to redeem Africa from the white oppressor, even his avowed enemies must admit that he has built up the most enthusiastic and extensive organization of Nogrews in the world. Mr. Garvey's genius for organizing is the remarkable thing of the whole movement, and certainly the cement-holding it together. Whether he can keep his organization together and make it function, is another question, and one that only the foolish would presume to answer. NOW FOR THE SCHOOL With a new Superintendent of Education for the State of Maryland and a new Superintendent of Schools in Baltimore, the schools of the city and State face the coming school year with a new administration. In the city it is felt that under the leadership of Mr. West, color consideration as that given other groups, and that adequate buildings and better supervision will take the place of the loose handling of local schools under the Koch regime. Mr. West has not yet appointed a colored assistant superintendent of schools. It is learned, however, that he is not personally opposed to naming one, aetho he has made no poor attendance on the question. Likewise, he has not yet had the opportunity of studying the situation at the High School, but when he does, those who knew him as assistant superintendent under Mr. VanSickle, believe that he will make the necessary recommendations at once. In the counties of Maryland, what Mr. Cook, the new superintendent, will do with the colored is enigmatic. Certainly he has a colossal job on his hands. There are colored school houses in the State that are mere barns, like the one in Crisfield, and there is the new building in Easton that is a credit to the community. Some colored teachers in Baltimore county get a fair wage, but in other counties many will get the infinitesimal sum of $40 per month. In no part of Maryland outside of the city of Baltimore will colored teachers get the same salaries that are given white teachers for doing the same work. The average for colored teachers is about $300 per year less. Unfortunately, inability of counsel to procure certified copies of the Education Bill passed by the Legislature has prevented the filing of a bill in the U. S. Courts to determine the legality of the inequit salary scheme for teachers. Certain it is that such a suit will be filed as soon as a completed case can be drawn. Meantime it is up to every community in Maryland to interest itself' in the public schools, not only so far as it means sending children and keeping them in schools the whole term, but also in petitioning the county school boards and backing up the teachers in their community program. Three colored men are candidates for office on the Socialist ticket in New York. One of them, Philip Randolph editor of The Messenger, is a candidate for office in State Comptroller, one of the most responsible offices in the State. Too bad there is not an active Socialist party in Maryland. It would do a big business next November. "SUCCESS" HAS A RARE MEAN ING FOR THE TIMES. Throughout a majority of the States, especially in the South, the two races are segregated in churches and schools and both races are better off as the result," declares the Crisfield (Md.) Times, in arguing the necessity of having separate polls for the races in Somerset county. It is true that in a majority of the States colored people have their own churches, altho in many parts of the North and West the congregations are mixed. As to schools, these States have separate school systems: Maryland, Virginia, parts of West Virginia, North and South Carolina, Georgia, Florida, Mississippi, Alabama, Texas, Louisiana, Arkansas, Missouri, Alabama, Missouri, Tennessee, Oklahoma, Delaware, Kentucky—in all seventeen States. Since when did seventeen become a "majority" of forty-eight? As to the two races being "better off" so far as schools are concerned, the Times is shooting off its musket without looking at the target. According to the Russell Sage Foundation, every one of these States having separate schools stands lower in the educational scale than those States having a single school system. And when the Times adds that the Jimcrow car system has been a "success" and that this is another reason why there should be separate polls for whites and colored voters, we are prepared to hear it announce next that lynch law in the South is a "success," that disfanchisement is a "success," and peonage and illy whiteism, and the hundreds of other survivals of the iniquitous slave period of American history.

In arguing for a training school for Negroes, the governor says in plain speech that he wants them to get, as Negroes, only such ideals as the South is willing for Negroes to have. How under God's sun can he ever establish a "strictly first class" school for Negroes with this idea in mind? He fears that if they go North for taining, they may get non-Southern ideals. But we will not dispute with the governor here, for the smallest brain must know that whatever degree of education is that Negro in North Carolina will only be sent to a place elsewhere for MORE so long as the North Carolina degree is below that to be received at Columbia University. The governor also thinks the Jim Crow car is necessary and only needs reforming—as if injustice itself can be made into justice.

In one of the leading magazines for September, Mr. Ewing says that determination to succeed when coupled with honest effort and oilied by plenty of elbo grease is sure to help any man over the hill to prosperity, independence and happiness. "Less hell raising and more potato raising will turn the trick." "THE BETTER SOUTH" Asso. Negro Press Governor, Bickett, of North Carolina, is known to stand far ahead of the average Southerner on the Negro question. So that if one wishes to get a fair idea of the humanity of the South with respect to colored people, let him consider the real position of this representative of "the better South." In his latest message on the subject Governor Bickett advocates to the legislature of North Carolina that it shall establish: 1. A reform school for Negro boys. 2. A santa-torium for tubercular Negroes. 3. A "strictly first class teachers" training school" for Negroes. 4. And that the laws be amended so as to make the awful Jim Crow car a little cleaner and "safer." These aims are all good, so far as they go, but the whole program is made impossible of attainment by the real spirit which the governor discloses and the remarkable philosophy on which he base his preference to "the white man's God, forgetting that the Christian religion is by no means an Anglo-Saxon affair in origin and spirit. He does well in the request for a reform school for Negro boys, and it is allowable that he sees in a sanatorium for Negroes tuberculosis a measure of protection for the white race. But he fails utterly when he says in his preamble that "we have, definitely decided . . . . . . that white government shall be supreme and unchallenged." He cannot mean that the Negro has decided not to share in government; he can only mean that the white man has decided to do best in North Carolina to prevent the Negro from sharing. That vittates the whole matter. There can be no justice with such evil intentions as the motive. The governor and other intelligentship people fail too often to seek that Negro not to tell a thing that the Negro is to be powerless and helpless and at the same time tell that thug effectively NOT TO LYNCH THAT NEGRO, or to give the Negro equal education, or a white man's trial in court. The thug will always be more logical than the governor and will always know that if the Negro is of an inferior order of being, he will be unable to treat anywhere. If a good Negro is unfit to vote, the bad Negro is unfit to be tried in a court. In arguing for a training school for Negroes the governor says in plain language that he wants them to get, as Negroes, only such ideals as the law permits. Negroes to have.

I do not see what the church has to do with this internal or secret fight. I am not a Mason and an absolutely neutral as to their fight but I am not neutral when the peace and unity of the church are at stake. Masonites should be some understanding between the pastors and the churches to prevent and friction in our church work and if possible to present friction between the church and the secret organizations.

North Carolina has definitely decided that the happiness of both races requires that white government shall be supreme and unrestricted in our society in its responsibility and when we deny to the Negro any participation in the making of the news waddle upon ourselves a permanent obligation to protect and to encourage him in the process of suppression.

"For the establishment of a strictly first class teachers training school that will compare students with the training school for the Negro community. It is located in the North of the Negroes who qualify themselves for high grade teachers go to schools outside of the State. This is to them and from them the best point. If the Negro teachers are located in the North they will absorb the ideals of the North, some of which have a deny to unit them to their use citizens. If we teach them in our own schools they will absorb Southern ideals, and will transmit these ideals to the youth who come under the administration of our transportation laws that will secure to the Negro gater and more sanitary accommodations when he rides on the trains. It is to them and happiness of high frees for whites and blacks to ride in adequate cars. This question sided in the South and that of legislation is going to be made in the North, with simple justice that requires a Negro pays the same his. transportation that man pays, he is entitled to just as safe and just as the one the white man end that those matters are brought to the attention of Next General Assembly in an in way, that is, that the General Assembly appoint or audit the Governor to appoint, a session of five members, whose small be to make a careful negotiation and study of the subject, the subsequent conclusions to the next submission to the General Assembly."

He added, "if any one needs to take a bath after a hard day's work it is the Negro population. The colored people heretofore have not had a bathing beach and we should THE AFRO-AMERICAN Church Sleepers Not to Blame When a man goes to sleep in church it is the fault according to the Christian Recorder of the preacher in the pulpit. Preachers according to the man who defended himself when caught asleep in church, have not one tenth as much conviction and enthusiasm over the gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ, as many salesman have who are selling automobiles and typewriters. When I go to sleep, says he, it is no reflection on me, it is a reflection on the preacher who can not interest me. Here is the statement in full: "You know I am a business man" he said, "and I am interviewed every day by a great many people who want to sell me different things. The same way I interview a number of people and desire to sell them different things. One man comes in to talk a typewriter, another a writing machine and another a box in New Jersey or somewhere. And another a book in everything that is offered me for sale, and even if I were to buy I do not need them. So that many times I am not interested in the propositions brought out of course there is no. Sometimes, however, the which I have been brought to me things which I have had no preset interest but the salesman himself felt interested, he knew the article he was selling so well and his arguments so convincing and against my will I have been led to look more carefully to the proposition and maybe have invested. In the way as a business man I have brought my article to many people who have not been interested in it and were too busy to give time and review. But I have been hearing I pretence again still initially I got a hearing argument so that I not only interested the people but finally put across the sale. To me the great set satisfaction has come from getting the uninterested people my goods, and getting customers who order." "Now I believe the Gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ is the greatest thing in the world, far greater than typewriter, or an anvil, than the preacher and he gives the Gospel to the widest of the Gospel. They are to interest the people. The Bible says 'How can they hear unless they have a preacher?' The salute is supposed to show other subjects that he sells so well, to be so deeply interested and so enthusiastic over it and to have so excitement even by the preacher's greatest doubter as to his value, its absolute necessity." "Now, when I sell my good I go to hunt up my customer, but when the preacher knows his goods the preacher comes to him. I submit that if he is not able to keep a storeman who has come to his storehouse to buy his goods, the man will buy his fruit, and a salesman in my business who was able to interest the people enough to keep them awake, I would not pay him and he would have to "So when I sleep in church it is no reflection on me. It is a reflection on the preacher, who cannot interest me. I would not go to church unless I was interested. I was interested. I did not have the time and hunt me up, now. After I have prepared myself, put on my best clothes and have gone to church and taken a conspicuous place so that everybody can see me, it is. I am to blame, but the blame is - upon the preacher. For actually some of the preachers are so illogical in what they say that if were holding jobs in an office salesman, then the would also have first day. They seem to have so little conviction about the great thing they are advocating that you can't blame me for sleeping. Why I have seen salesmen by the dozen who have written a manuscript over an automobile or a typewriter than the average preacher over the Gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ. The preacher is selling the greatest thing in the world, and it would seem to be the poorest thing in the world. And then the average preacher is ignorant of the thing he is trying to put over. He does not himself Bible. He does not himself his translation from science are not真理; his illustrations from history are wrong. He does not put his proposition on a basis where the average human being could get any thing wrong. And of course, I go to sleep." "I believe that if I were preaching the Gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ, if I were convinced that it is the greatest thing in the world, as the preachers say it is and if I had two put on their best clothes and come in their best manner to listen, and ask me' what is it you have to do?" I believe that I would not only keep them awake but I would sell to everyone of them the Religion of Jesus, and I would sell to everyone I have one I put in houses and type-writers. I could do it with the Gospel. Why not?" BLACK STAR STEAMER DISABLED. Knauwha, With Cargo, of Onous, Bound for Havaji, Calls For Assistance.

Steady Stream From Europe May Amount To As Many As 1,000,000 In 1920 NEGRO WORKERS SAFE No Effort Will Be Made Te Supplant Them In North- ern Industries a ee Xew York, Sept. 9—Immigra- ‘ion figures for the month of ‘August, disclose fhe fact that foreigners @°e now coming into the United States at the rate of more ‘ian 20,00 per month, or 1,000,000 x year, ‘This great influx is - on, uespite the pressing conditions in Burope, where man power is at the minimum, and millions are needed to help rebuild the countries destroyed by the war. Reports are also being eireulated in various parts of the South to ‘the effect that 200,000 Mexicans aire to. be imported into various Southern states in order to take care of the farm work and other industrial needs brought on by the marvelous influx of Negroes into Northern states. ‘Leaders, organizations ‘and g0¥- ernment ‘departments, having in charge the economic welfare of the country, are studying with great interest the various phases of these ‘new movements, — Byery encour- agement is being given, it seems, to immigration, despite the recent immigration law passed by Con- gress. Some go so far as to say that the underlying motive is to open up labor conditions in order to throw thousands of Negroes out of employment in the North, so that they will return to the South. Ii there 4s any such motive, it is not believed that it will succeed, however. Careful investigaiton by ine Associated Negro Press in every section of the North to whieh the race has migrated, discloses the fact that niore than ninety pet cent of the employers are entirely satisfied with Negro labor. They give among the reasons for satis- faction the follewing: the colored employees are 100 per cent Ameri- ‘eun; they speuk our language and no interpreter is required; they do net. seek to foment strife and strikes; they are hurd and faithful Avorkers, and the majority of them re saving their money and buy- ‘ing homes. : On the other hand, it is pointed out that it is necessary for every member of the race to be on guard for his own betterment. After all, it iy stated, employment is econo- mnie and not sentimental. Regard- less Of how sympathetic employers “inay be, efficiency 18 the wateh- word, and if the employees do not ‘measure up, there is but one thing lett to do, ‘make a change. Organizations of all. kind are urged to preach this doctrine to the people, and impress on them the importance of always seeking to better their condition, Extrava- gunce and vice are frowned upon, und honest workers are urged to beware of the crafty people in the ‘city, men. and women, that smatl ut’ insistent few who strive and ‘livuvish by their wits and the credulity of newcomers, PLACES WREATH ON WASHINGTON’S TOMB Physicians Speut Whole Day At ‘Cuskegee Institute Tuskegee, Ala., Sept. 9.—A most impressive event of the visit of the National Medical Association to this place last week was the placing of a floral wreath upon the tomb of Booker T.

Pa Pe aE FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 10, 1920 Killed For Going Swinging Osie Richardson Found His Wife In A Swing At Kirby's Park HID BODY Edw. Jones Finds It Weel Later Behind Dancing Pavillion The fact that she sat in a swing with Thomas Lucas at Kirby's Park, Shadyside Sunday, August 29th, is the probable cause that led Osie Richardson to kill his wife, Jonnie Richardson and hide her body in the hear of the dancing pavilion. Richardson is very tall and dark and lived with his pretty brown skinned wife in a third story back room at 115 Bolton street. On August 29th, Ethel Benson, Mamie Henderson and Mrs. Richardson went together to Shadyside. Richardson himself came down later and found his wife in a swing with Lucas. He called her aside and they went off together, Mrs. Richardson had not been seen since until Edward Jones, 706 Vine street found her body last Saturday behind the pavilion. Richardson, it is said, had his wife's effects sent home to her parents in Riverside, N. C. Pictures of both parties were given to the police, who feel certain that Richardson committed the crime. LEWIS L. PERRY Dies After Six Months Illness At Drudid Hill Avenue Home Lewis L. Perry, age 25, whose home is in Cleveland, Ohio, died after six months' illness at the home of his sister, Mrs. Medota Buckingham, 1802 Drudid Hill avenue. Sunday morning at 11:30 o'clock. Funner had been spread abroad that her brother had been Blides that there was foul play. Mrs. Buckingham denied this by saying that her brother had been ill for six months or more and death was no doubt due to the aliment from which he suffered. Besides Mrs. Buckingham, two sisters, Miss Attire Perry, former linotype operator in the AFRO-MERCAN, and Mrs. Susie Smith and brother Walter Perry of Chicago survived.

WOULDN'T SHINE HIS SHOES Baltimore Street Boothblack Tells Cleveland He Prefers White Trade Only It may be all right for colored boothblack, who have their stands outside white barbershops to shine white people's shoes only, but J. H. Stenney does not think so. When he passed a boothblack stand outside the white barbershop on West Baltimore street between Gilnor and Vincent last Thursday morning, he remembered that he needed a shine and started to sit in the chair, when the colored boothblack reclining there lazily informed him that he served "white trade only." Mr. Steepney, who halls from Cleveland, Ohio, was not angry, he was just amused. He declares he heard that Baltimore was a Southern town, but he did not know that the prejudice was so bad here that it made colored bootblacks turn down money. Up at 423 Gilmon street, Mr. Steepney has opened an office and conducts the novel business of renovating soiled wall paper so that it looks like new. Celebrate 5th Anniversary. Mr. and Mrs. Wm. C.

AFRO MAN UP IN AEROPLANE Newspaper Men Of City Are Guests Of Recruiting Officers In A "Spin" Over The Town Thrilling loops, banks, turns and dives were on the bill at the Dundalk flying field last Friday afternoon, when the representatives of the local daily papers and the AFRO-AMERICAN were the guests of Captain Swaboda, and Lieutenant Wendell Phillips in a "spin" over the city in a big army biplane. Lieutenant Phillips, a New Yorker, altho only nineteen years of age is one of the best known flying pilots in the East with a record of more than 6,000 flights. Many of the newspaper man had never enjoyed the flight before and accepted the invitation of the recruiting officers with enthusiasm. The pilot also enjoyed the occasion and gave his guests a straight a way flight or a series of stunts just as they wished. A Sun reporter selected stunts and was given nine loops in succession over the field ending in a dive. The AFRO man selected a straight a way flight over the city and suburbs. Lieutenant Phillips enlivened the trip by speeding to overtake another aeroplane, and then letting go all controls stood up in his seat and simulated the use of a machine gun. The sham battle lasted for nearly twenty minutes, while many people watching the planes maneuver from the streets had no idea of the comedy being enacted two thousand feet over their heads.

KANSAS CITY VO TERS REWARDED. Are Represented In Both Parties And Hold Many Jobs, Says G. W. F. McMechen. That the dissemination of the votes of the colored residents of Kansas City into both the Republican and Democratic parties is responsible for their receiving greater political recognition, is the opinion of George W. McMechen, grand exalted ruler of the Elks, who attended the annual convention of the order in that city last week. "They have colored police, fireman and other positions their," he said, "both parties being willing to accord them recognition. South Georgia Howard M. Smith, many will recall as an old Baltimore boy, is superintendent of an institution there and others are holding five positions. Of the twenty-three colored physicians there, twenty are members of the Elks." WARRANT FOR WHITE MAN Mrs. Waters Charges What He Tried To Commit A Criminal Assault On Her.

Ashbic Hawkins for the U. / S. Sonate "Likker" Doctors Are Condemned Washington Physician Be labors Prescriblers As Guilty Of "Unpunishable Crime" AFTER MONEY ONLY Else Why Did They Not Prescrible Whiskey Before Volstead Act Among the list of "Unpunished Crime" of which physicians are guilty is that of writing whiskey prescriptions, according to Dr. Wm. H. Wilson of 1515 10th Street N. W. Washington, D. C. Dr. Wilson read a paper detailing a number of "Unpunished Crimes" that physicians commit before the National Medical Association in a convention at Atlanta Ga., recently. The paper created a sensation. Dr. Wilson beloaked physicians who when the patients of other physicians die tell the family, "I could have saved him had I been called sooner." They are nothing more nor less than common deceivers he said. Another form of crime, of which many physicians are guilty he says, is that of stealing patients, belonging to others. It isn't safe for a physician to send a patient to a hospital unless he accompanies him. Not only is whiskey no good for medical purposes but those who are prescribing it are committing a crime. "It cannot truthfully be said in justification of this phrase of the practice of medicine that physicians do so because of the confidence they have in whiskey as a remedial agent. It cannot be urged with expectation of acceptance by men of reasonable mentality that whiskey has any peculiar value in the illness of an average office patient. If so how came it to be that the office whiskey prescription was unknown until the National Prohibition Act? Indeed, whiskey was not prescribed. It was prescribed. "Whatever of therapeutic value it has in the minds of many that value has been enhanced by the 'Bacon' it brings home. The judgment of any whiskey licentiate as to its worth in this type of case can be ascertained easily by his reply to a query which seeks to敛icit the number of times he has voluntarily and against the office patient's wish forced upon him a whiskey prescription. "If he has never thus parted with a treasure so valued it is because judgment affirms that value lies in the paper and not in the bottle. In like manner, in the aggregate respiratory alimentes alone excepted, who among whiskey's new made myriads of scientific advocates parts with a prescription of his own volition even in the patient's home? If a better guide touching the licentiate's attitude toward whiskey prescribing were needed it is difficult to find. It has always been regarded as importance of dankest dye when patients suggested the treatment their lils required. None but the sycophant even to this day maintains his equipoise when audacious patients thus invade his prerogative and yet physicians prescribe whiskey not alone upon the with the exceptions implied, who has done so not alone upon the patient's mere suggestion but upon his capling or commanding insistence. Physicians do it too often because they are ordered to do it, and therein lies the commission of an unpunishable crime. "The distinction between the abortionist or the violator of the Harrison law and them is one of degree. Each is unpunished because undiscovered, neither is applying remedial agents and both are practicing Get-rich-quick schemes. "The dignity of a profession, the honor of a school the respect of a race, the pride of parents, the confidence of friends, the good name of fellow physicians, their years of striving and their love of liberty they jeopardize. They whose love of transitory gain overpowers all else that gives them status should be and are medical outcasts though the law punish them not." Home Hours: 7 to 9 P. M.

HOURS 7-9 Tollenphones: THE AFRO-AMERICAN DEMOCRATIC PRESIDENT WHO BELIEVED IN EQUAL RIGHTS Column Of Worth While History By Rev. George F. Bragg It would be interesting to know which of our great colleges, or universities, was the first to admit and graduate a black man in this country. Nearly one hundred years ago, the first black man who applied for admission to Dartmouth College, was rejected. This was in 1824. The late Alpheus Crosby, Professor of Greek in Dartmouth College, from 1832 to 1865, in his annals of the class of 1827, thus refers to the case: "One of the brightest honors of the College, its freedom from distinctions on account of color, was won for it during our course, and with no unimportant aid from our class. At the commencement of 1824, Edward Mitchell, a young man to whom naught could be objected except that he was somewhat tinged with African dye, a native of Martinique, W. L., applied for admission. He was examined and approved by the faculty. But the trustees, who were in session, refused to permit his admission; fearing its effect upon the college. He accordingly returned disappointed to his home. When this became known to the students, the classes held meetings and chose a committee to intercede in his favor. One of the committee was our class-mate Cleveland, who approved himself through life so true an anti-slavery man. His own complexion was dark for a Caucasian; and it is stated, that in pleading for Mitchell he urged the argument that if color excluded from the college, he himself could not be a member. "The action of the trustees was reversed; Mitchell was sent for, went through the college course, and graduated, without so far as we are aware, a single insult from a fellow student. Indeed his character, bearing and intellect, were such that he must have been shameless who could have treated him with disrespect." This was the beginning and end of discrimination on account of color at Dartmouth. Mitchell graduated in 1828. He studied divinity and was ordained a Baptist minister about 1831; preached at Sutton, N. H., two years; at Windsor Vt., one year at Eaton C. E., four years. He married Ruth Cheney of Derby, Vt. The third black man to graduate from Dartmouth, was born in this very city of Baltimore. In 1855, Edward Carrison Draper, born in Baltimore, Jan. 1, 1834, the son of Jamison and Charlotte (Gilburg) Draper, received his diploma of graduation. He died at Cape Palmus, W. Africa, Dec. 20, 1858. He read-Law with Joseph Jones Gilman, Dartmouth College, 1853; at Baltimore from 1855 to 1857; sailed for Liberia in 1857; began practice in Monrovia and so continued until death terminated a most prominent career. His life was published by his mother. He married Jane Rebecca, the daughter of John Jordan of Baltimore, just before leaving America. Since that early day, Maryland young black men have sustained a most honorable record as Alumni of all the important colleges of the country. It may not be important now, because of our low appreciation of literature and scholarship, but there will be a time when black people far ahead of us will most highly appreciate every scrap of record they can get their hands upon which tell of the conquests of their kind in days gone. If any apology is needed in writing as I have such is it as thus intimated. The "National Republican" In The Year 1883, Had "We hear a good deal about "the nigger keeping his place". Jubal Early, at the Lynchburg meeting held to ratify the Danville massacre offered a resolution, in which the blacks of Virginia were informed that they would be protected in their rights, but that they would have "to keep their places". The Constitution of the United States expressly provides that in all civil and political matters the Negro's "place" is the same as the white man's place. Before the rebellion his place was assigned to him by the masters whose slave he was. Then the state fixed his status and the United States Constitution sustained the state laws. But Slavery went forth to shear Freedom and came back shorn. The right of states to make men slaves was lost by the South in her own terrible game of war. She refused to surrender what she had lost and had to be taught by, the constitutional amendments that when men cease to be slave they were to be treated as free citizens with equal right. A large and turbulent class at the south still definitely ignores all the changes wrought in the Negro's status, except the extinction of the right of property in his flesh blood, muscles, brain, nerves and bones." When Grover Cleveland, Democrat first took the oath as President of the United States, among other things he declared as good democratic doctrine: "Loyalty to the principles upon which government rests positively demands that the equality before the law which it guarantees to every citizen should be justly and in good faith conceded in all parts of the land." The enjoyment of this right follows the badge of citizenship wherever found and unimpaired by race or color, it appeals for recognition to American manliness and fairness." GEORGE F.
