Oklahoma Millionaire Oil Queen Now Attending Biggest High School In West
BUYS HOMES
A $20,000 Mansion For Her
self And Another For Her
Kansas City, Mo., Jan. 13.—With a million dollars worth of oil fields in Oklahoma, and many hundred thousands of dollars in bank carned from the sale of the product in the last ten years, Miss Sarah Rector, Oklahoma's oil queen, has left the state to become a student at the Lincoln High School, here.
Money is alright, according to Miss Rector, but its no good unless you know what to do with it, and for this reason she is anxious to get a complete common school education.
In order to be comfortable white in the city, she has purchased two mansions next door to each other in an exclusive Kansas City neighborhood, and lives in one of them together with the white administrator over her estate left her by her father, while a number of her relatives live in the other.
The story is still being told of how the white decorator who remodeled the inside of Miss Rector's houses fell off his ladder when he saw that the owner was colored instead of white.
Money has not affected Sarah Fletcher, according to schoolmates at the Lincoln High School, who declare that she has taken an interest in all of the school activities, including the girls' athletic teams, the theft club and she is just a high school girl with the rest of them.

Woman Tied Herself To A Bed And Said Strange Man Assaulted Her
Dallas, Texas, Jan. 13.—Walter Stegall, walked out of prison last week a free man after having been imprisoned for more than two weeks on the charge of criminal assault, burglary and robbery, preferred against him by Mrs. Gertrude Clark, white. Stegall was to have been tried this week and wag held under heavy bail since his indictment by the grand jury.
When county detectives working on the case found that the Clark woman had pawned her wedding ring, six days before the robbery, she broke down and confessed that she tied herself to a bed and told the story of her assault and later identified Stegall as her assailant.
To make herself solid with her husband she said, she framed the charges against Stegall.

SENATORS REJECT TAFT'S ADVICE ON PATRONAGE
Ex-President's Advice To Harding Not To Appoint Southern Colored Men To Office Condemned
RELINGHUYSEN TART
New Jersey Senator Does Not Think Taft Speaks His Own Mind
Colored Syndicate Press Bureau Washington, D. C., Jan. 13. (Special). Interviews with a number of Senators and Congressmen here as to what they think of ex-President Taft's advice to President-elect Harding, not to appoint Southern colored men to office, indicates that few of them agree with him.
Mr. Taft, said this week in an article widely printed, that Harding should appoint white Republicans of the South to office only, and should give Southern colored Republicans jobs in Washington or not at all. The Republican party in the South, he added, should be lily white.
Senator Penrose, Representative of Pennsylvania, when interviewed, declared, "I do not see where the remedy of the article by Mr. Taft will close the gulf which is the cause of the misunderstanding of the races."
Senator Calder, of New York, "Any policy that would discriminate against the colored citizens of the South, would be wrong."
Senator LaFolette, of Wisconsin, "That may be Mr. Taft's remedy, but it is not mine."
Senator Wardsworth of New York. "The colored citizens, regardless of party, must have a square deal."
Senator Curtis of Kansas. "I believe in human rights. From what I mean discern, the article does not meet the issue squarely."
Senator Relinghuyson of New Jersey. "I do not think that the policy advocated in the article are the personal views of Mr. Taft."
Rep. Edmonds, of Pennsylvania,
"I do not see how the policy advocated in the article will help the party. We may dent the solid South, but we will never break it."
Rep. McLeod of Michigan. "If the policy hereby was applied, I think it would have a tendency to strangle ambition and to create a greater discontent than now exists. I believe we must give the colored people regardless of geographic location, every opportunity to progress, and we cannot do that by discouraging them, because some people in the South object on the account of color."
Rep. Hamilton Fish of New York. "To my way of thinking, the article is all wrong. It is most unfair. I was an officer of the Fifteenth Regiment which covered itself with honor and I know that the majority of those men were from the South."
"Quite a number of them went back to the state of their birth to live, and through constant contact with these men under every conceivable hardship. I feel that they are capable of holding any position that would be tendered to them.
"You can quote me, I am with the colored people, every inch of the route."
Meharry Gets $500,000
Nashville, Tennessee, Jan. 13.—Carniege-Foundation, General Educational Board, and the M. E Church, gave Meharyan Medical College, one half million endowment fund. President G. W. Hubbard, will be succeeded by W. J Mullowney, white, as president, February first.

Summer, Ala., Jan. 13. Meeting of the State Grand Lodge of Masons, scheduled here for next summer has been called off, following an assault of white Masons upon colored Masons and Shriners wearing the emblem.
The action of Masonic authorities followed the murderous attack upon J. L. Carrett, Grand Lecturer and well known Shriner who hold up a number of leading white business and fraternal men. Mr. Carrett was stopped on the street, his Shriner pin taken from him, thrown to the ground and stamped under foot. He was told never to bee seen with a Shriner's pin on again. White Shriners formed a circle while Carrett was knocked to the ground repeatedly until he was nearly unconscious. The colored section is in an uproar and threatens reprisals.
LINCOLN UNIVERSITY

Philadelphia, Pa., Jan. 13—Publishing correspondence between Rev. Francis J. Grimke, of Washington, D.C. and Lincoln University authorities, the Philadelphia Tribune, in its current issue declares that Lincoln University is the only colored college that shuts colored men out of its professorships and board of trustees.
Rev. Grimke, who is a graduate of Lincoln suggests the all white faculty feels itself above associating with colored professors, as is done in Howard Fiske, Atlanta and other colored colleges.

THEY BROKE CONTRACT
Expulsion Of Pastor In Mid Term Claimed As Violation Of Appointment
Rev. John Offer Custis wants $5,000 damages for his expulsion from the Baltimore Conference of the A. M. E. Church, and docked suit in the Superior Court Monday claiming that amount from Bishop J. Albert Johnson, Rev. A. L. Gaines and Rev. James G. Martin, Hawkins and McMechen are his attorneys.
The trouble dates back to his appointment as pastor of Tyson Church, West Roland Park, in April 1919. The following October he was removed for some alleged trouble. Mandamus proceedings were instituted by the minister, but withdrawn following argument.
When the minister attended the Baltimore Conference, in its annual session at Washington last April, his case was aired. He offered to resign, it is claimed, but the conference expelled him. Rev. Custis in his suit declares his expulsion a breach of contract. He was a minister in the A. M. E. Church for thirty years.
BROOKLYN READY
FOR KU KLUX
Their Constitution Called A Covenant With Hell
Brooklyn, N. Y., Jan. 13.—"The name Ku Klux spells rapine, license, murder, intimidation to the Negro.
"Their constitution is a 'league with Satan and a covenant with hell.' and their kind are doing their host to wipe out the Negro race by murder and rope.
"There is a day of reckoning coming to the Ku Klux. The groans of the Negroes done to death without judge or jury still in our ears and make our nights hideous; the stench from burning human flesh still offends the nostrils of Almighty God. The mills of God grind slowly, but they grind the entire grist."
"The day the Ku Klux Klan becomes active in New York that day will begin our reckoning with the 'invisible empire.' We have not forgotten; we will not forget. The sins the Ku Klux have committed 'two by two' in the Southland shall be paid for 'one of one' in the North. We are ready for the Ku Klux Klan.
PAUL FULTON."

D. H. Anderson, Head Of West Kentucky Industrial College Is $10,000
INVESTIGATION MADE
$1875 Back Pay Due Teachers, While President Rides Around In Ford Car
Frankford, Ky., Jan. 13.—Recklessness, extravagance, carelessness, bad trades, and over-buying will cause D. H. Anderson, president of the West Kentucky Industrial College, Paducah, to lose his job.
The school which has 171 students receives an annual appropriation of $10,000 from the state legislature. Its debts now are $9,333.37 according to a report on the college, made to Governor Morrow last week by the State Inspector and Examiner.
While the teachers in the school are owed back salaries amounting to $1875, the president, according to the examiner, extravagantly furnished his own residence, rides around in an automobile, and equipped his office with a dictaphone, mimeograph, two type-writers and an adding machine.
"I could not see," said the inspector, "what earthly use there was for an adding machine, except to add unpaid bills."
Although the state legislature has not made any appropriation this year, the money is already spent and it is likely that the Governor will request Anderson's resignation.

Parents Interested In Color- ed High School Look To Dr. Strayer For Much Needed Relief
BUILDING CONDEMNED
More Light Shed On Stormy Faculty Meetings Which Were Denied
In spite of Principal Mason A. Hawkins' denial of the stormy faculty meetings in which his teachers took issue with him on the list of questions to be submitted to Superintendent West, news has leaked out of the rift between some members of the faculty and the principal over conditions at the High School.
As an indication of the state of affairs, it has been disclosed that one of the questions the teachers wanted to ask Superintendent West was: "Is the present efficiency of the high school the fault of the faculty or the principal?" Objections of Mr. Hawkins and his supporters prevented this question from being put, when the teachers met Superintendent West afterwards.
Another question asked Superintendent West when he met the High School faculty was: "How did he explain the shortage of supplies at the Colored High School, and was it true that the School Board was trying to run it on as cheap a scale as possible?" It has been known for some time that there was insufficient theme paper on hand in the building to meet the needs of the students and one of the first year classes was compelled to go without a text book in Algebra until late in December of the past year. For three months these students worked without a text book and made the best of the problems dictated by the teacher or placed on the black board.
Parents interested in the High School are looking to the survey of Dr. Straper and his associates to tell them where the trouble with the High School lies.
The question was discussed in a group of ministers at the Baptist Ministers' Conference on Monday, where it was stated that the articles in the APRO-AMERICAN on the school situation did not begin to give the full state of affairs. The High School building together with a number of elementary was put in the list of buildings not worth repair. The other buildings which are in bad condition and should be scrapped according to the Survey Commission, are: School 102, 103, 105, 106 and branch, 107, 108, 109, 109 branch, 110, 113, 115, 116, 118 and 118 branch and surburban school buildings at Arlington, Brooklyn, Canton, Fairfield, Lauraville, Mount Washington, Mount Wilens, Roland Park and Govans.
Practically every colored school in the city is listed by the Surveyors as of such poor condition that repairs are not warranted.

CURRENT AND
| OTHERWISE
By W. H. A. Moore
Cotton is yet KING. Its pro-
ducers, however, rate among the
Iowest in the sockl and economic
seale of American lite. In this
period of economic reuction it is
well to give serious consideration
noz only to the crop production of
cotton, wheat, corn, potatnes, 2p-
pies and other farm stuples, but
it will be wisdom to give thought
to the spirit of the markets await-
ing thelr delivery. In the instance
of cotton the European market has
taken a decided slump. A recent
authority asserts tat of the
9,000,000 bales of cotton exported
before the waz, 3,000,000. bales
went lo Germany. It is true that
there was an after-the-war beom
that sent the price of cotton sky-
ward, All this has changed how-
lever. The loss of the German
miarket and the subsequent dectin2
of other European demends have
brought about # very serious sit-
uation among the cotton farmers
in the South. ‘The weight of the
burden falls upon the small own-
ers and the simple tillers of the
soil, These small owners are in
many instances Negroes. ‘The tit-
lers are nearly all Negroes. But
let us come to the “nut cracking”
fn this question. “The system oF
grading and warehousizg cotton
is primitive compared with that
lof grain, The system of picking is
by hand for lack of a cotton “har-
vester.’ Production is on smaller
units, and by more ignorant pro-
ducers.” All of which brings mo
back to the old fashtoned conten-
tion that we have been paying too
much attention lo the questions of
rights und too little notice to the
matters of duty. Our “move-
ments” all tend in the direction of
discrimination, It appeurs to be
of small moment that cotton ts
still being “picked by hand and
production is on swnaller units and
by more ignorant producers.”

IT IS HARD TO BE GOop
‘A NEW YEAR'S GREETING
If tho course that is healthy
Be the one whut [ should,
It may be easy to be weulthy,
But t's hurd to be good.
When the loud that I'm under
Tests my utmost manhood,
Though I walk without blunder
Yet it's hurd to be good.
When in life's sud meditation,
When alone there I stud:
I felt the shame of condemnation
For it's hurd to be good,
f¢ some work of ambition
Be the one 1 think 1 could,
Though I'm clothed with admoni-
tion,
Still it's hard to be good.
When temptition fy the trial,
And reluctance is the myod,
Tre the path of seit denial
But W's hurd to be good.
Whep religion is the goal.
And Its precepts understood,
T find a weakness in the soul
‘And it's hard to be good.

THE NEW LINCOLN
The Wooden Bonton’ Musical
Comedy Company is.at the New
Lincoln this week: This is the first
appearance of this company in
Baltimore, but if applause can be
taken as a criterion, it will not be
the last; for at its opening on Non-
day, every song and every bit of
business was greeted with generous
applause.
The girls in addition to veing
above the average in looks. have
geod voices us well. and under-
stand how to put a song over.
‘The comedians are funny with-
out “working” themselves to death
trying to be, and then not succeed-
ing, as is so often the case with
some performers.
They are carrying their own jazz
band, with a comely young lady
Presiding at the piano, and boys,
‘she can make those “ivorirs” set
right up and do tricks.
‘A pleasing departure however, is
that they have side-tracked some
of the nerve-racking Jazz music
which have been dished up to col-
ored play-goers 60 long that some
of our musical stomachs are almost
unable to heep it down any longer;
and are mixing in some music of 2
more legitimate nature.
/THE NEW RAINBOW
The bill at the New Rainbow
this week is one of the best this
house has had for several weeks.
It is composed of White and
Bradford; Hightower and Jones:
Charles Anderson and May Kent:
the last two doing singles.
White and Bradford—a inau and
woman—-talk and sing, und they
do both’ very entertainingly, the
wonwen being one of the best “fun-
emiths” of her sex that we havo
seen for sometime.
Captain May Kent is reported to
b¢ the only colored woman who
‘was commissioned with a captlain-
ey during the late war, sho was
connected with the motor trans-
port service and served both on
this side and in France; vhe is now
in vaudeville, singing, and tellin
storles, both of which she dues
charmingly.
Hightower and Jones, billed as
“dancing fools are every bit of
that, their feet are truly “educat-
ed."
Charles Anderson, is a silver
tenor und yodler who is the equal
of any we have ever heard, barring
none, and should be appearing in
the ‘best vurlety houses in the
country, the audience refused to
cease its demands for encores until
the curtain had fallen and the
lights flashed on.
The management of (his house
@esires to call particularly to the
attention of its patrons. that on
the 19th and 20th of this month,
Pearl White in “The White Moll"
will be shown, this is the “peerless
Pearl's" latest picture and is being
shown exclusively in houses cater-
ing to colored patronage, and they
don’t want their patrons to: miss it.
THE OAREY
The Carey management wishes
to announce to thelr patrons that
on the 13th a.great serial entitled,
“The Son of Tarzan” will begin.
On the 19th another, “The Velvet
Finger" will also begin, and on the
25th “Hell's Oasis" a six reel
feature picture starring Neat Hart
will be shown; this is a great pic-
ture which you ‘cannot afford to
miss.

'Mr. Gilpin, i¢ will be remember-

character in Drinkwater's “Abra-

And so finished was his art in
this role that it is said that thous-

had no other idea than that the
role was being enacted by a white
man made up for the part.
Tn his latest role the critics have
without a notable—or even @ single
exception so far ay we are aware,
proclaimed his acting a master
piece of histronism, several boldly
declaring it the greatest eurrently
‘on view in the metropolis.
Not only does he possess the gift
of sensing the psychological in-
yestiture with which the author
has sought to clothe the chief
character of his drama, but in 2d-
ition to this he possesses a mag-
nificent voice, which he also knows
hew to use to the purpose.
The story of “The Emperor
Jones” briefly outlined, has to do
with a former pullman porter who
has become the ruler of a tribe of
semi-savares.
Having grown ured of his rule
they begin plotting his assassina-

Paid Evangelists Are Under Fire
Speakers At Methodist And Baptist Meetings Declare Ministers Should Do Their Own Revival Work
Paul evangelists and revivalists, got a black eye at the meetings of the A.M. M. meeting at Bethel Church and the Baptist Ministers Conference at from Baptist Church Monday.
Bishop Albert Johnson, speaking before the Methodists declared, did not appreciate proxies doing his work.
"Twenty-five years ago" he said, "every ministry conducted his own reevaluation. Now a new we, we are in the busier of turning this work over to body and paying them to do it." Practices of today raise more money and are more elegant, but do not preach as efficiently as the older styles of twenty-five years ago."
The same was followed by Rev. E. Love of Montclair, New Jersey, president of a Colored Baptist State Convention here before the Baptists. According to Rev. Love, the average Emancipation does not believe in the Gospel himself and therefore is unmitted to do the work that is done by the church pastors.

Bishop Brooks—Africa
Bishop W. Sampion Brooks of
the A. M. E. Church recently
assigned to a district in Oklahoma
in addition to his work in Africa.
The Christian Reverberator of Phil-
adelphia thinks this a wise move,
almost most African bishops are
absent no other territory. It
is.
The fact that he was given a bachelor's degree in this country in taking over the conferences in Oklahoma, may or may not hinder his services in Africa. Our own belief is that it will not mar his services there. If Brooks were a man trying to "take things easy" and to "be a bad thing for him to have his detritus so widely separated, his abilities with which to work it would not be a necessity or desirable that he should have an American base. But the clash has not yet grown to the place where it can do real missionary work on a large scale. And Bishop Brooks is a hard worker and constant traveler. It would be impossible for him to remain all of the time in West Africa, and so his return to America he will have to work to here and in the same time he will have to present our people with the needs of Africa. If his American work brings him only that the might educate people in the work to which he called, he will do a great

Valinsky.....Persy Challenger
Three lives, one a path of roses, another of rocks and a third fall of Mud travel along together. Sometimes they almost meet and then diverge. Again they cross and then the road of mud ends in darkness. The path of rocks becomes one of primrose and the road of flowers fills with thorns. It is a beautiful story staged as only TOM TERRIS can direct reproduction, in a manner that brings out all the subtle splendor and beauties. It is a picture of contrasts—high lights and deep shadows. The wild debauch in the Tower studio, with wine, woman and song, stands out against the simplicity of the life on Trumpet Island, where Richard goes to redeem himself. Vallinsky's novel is the opposite of Eve's gorgeous home. Then there are the big spectacular thrills, such as the electrical storm, which wrecks the airplane in which Eve and Caron commence their honeymoon, and the sensational fall of the players—one into the ocean, a thousand feet below, and Eve into the trees on Trumpet Island. From this point the story soars to new heights and touches spots never before shown in motion pictures. "Trumpet Island" is different. It is new. It is an artistic production and one that will start you thinking.

Murphys Have Twins
Subscription Dance
**Subscription.** The Swastika Junior Whist Club, a recently organized body gave the first of a series of Subscription Dances on Jan. 3, 1921 at Elks Home, 411 W. Hoffman St.
As their first attempt the affair was a tremendous success. The hall was beautifully decorated with the club colors Blue and White and each of the members wore the insignia on their arm.
The entire evening was spent in dancing. At 11.30 P. M. a delicious repast was served, dancing then continued until 1.30 A. M. at which time every one regretfully retired to the tune of the "Swastika Blues."
The president and members heartily thank their friends for the ready response to their first offering of entertainments and sincerely solicit their future cooperation. Mesdames Maude Dotson, president; Leonade Jones, vice president; Rosanna West, corresponding secretary; Lena Owens, recording secretary; Florence Norris, financial secretary and Viginia Smith, treasurer.
The members are as follows: Mesdames Narcissus Hines, Salva Mitchell, Emma Denna, Lena Render, Mattee Jackson, Gertrude Rice, Maria Dotson, Myrtle Rice, Susie Stansberry, Elenora Linberry, Edith Thornton, Bertha Smith, Augusta Matthews, Francis Johnson, Elenora Lewis Cavella Nicker and Helen Smith.

"When close confinement intoors or overwork has you all runnout and feeling badly my advice is to go down to the drug store and not a couple bottles of Earle's Hyne-Cod." declared Mr. J. Reynolds, 403 Louisiana Ave., Washington, D. C.
"I had that no-good, no-account feeling and lacked energy, enough to climb out of bed mornings. I was feeling very much rundown when I took this new tonic and now I'm able to work from $ A. M. to $ 8. P. M. everyday, without feeling tired out and weary when the day's work is done. Did it me so much good that I have recommended Earle's Hyne-Cod to lots of folks and especially men who deal hard work and need something to keep them in good shape," continued Mr. Reynolds whose address is given above.
Thousands of people have built themselves up to robust, health and vigor through the use of Earle's Hypo-Cod according to their statements. It is just the thing for a person to take at this season of the year. Druggists, chemists and experts assert it is the most powerful reconstructive tonic of its kind made. (See formula on bottle) Take home a bottle with you tonight.
Earle's Hypo-Cod is sold here by all good druggists and the, leading druggists in all nearby towns. Ad

An interesting example of a new occupation for women is the mail order business of Miss Madeline Allison of New York. Miss Allison is a colored woman who has long been connected with THE CRISIS magazine. She has been impressed with the advantage to many colored people particularly in the South, of shopping in New York. If they could get careful and interest attention.
Some months ago she began such a mail personal mail order business which is now growing rapidly.

BOUT NOT LIKELY
Carpentier And Jess Wil

fore Wills Has Chance
By Jumes J. Corbett
| New York, Jan, 8—i¢ jack Denip
“sey polishes off Jess Willard un
George Carpentier, there witl b
another formidable fighter disput
ing ths absolute istic” supremacy
And that man fs none other thai
Harry Wills,
Dempsey has never taken the at
ititude that he won't fight Wills—
nor has he stated positively tha
he would give the dusky warrior
chance. But those who knot
Dempsey intimately are certain tha
if the time comes when insisten
public voice asks him to fight Will
he will not back away from it,
Confidence is Dempse’'y keynote
Iffe feels that he can whip any fight
jer in the world—white or black
‘Hel oves to fight and the tougher
the opposition the better he like:
it, If the fighting was left entirel
‘in Dempseys hands, the chances ar
that he'd be out batting every week
or $0.
Phere is a thought in some quar
ters that Wills should be denied the
change avith Dempsey sinply be-
ewuse he fs a Negro. Jt is pointed
lout that Jack Johison disgraced the
fistic gume while he was king 0!
the sport, and there are seme folks
who think that Wills might do like-
wise,
But this is a grevious injustice tc
Wills und to the Negro race ay i
whole. Just because one Negro
discredited himself and brought
Criticism upon his, profession is ne
reason tu believe that every Negro
will do so. There have ven many
Negro fighters—some of — them
champious—and not one Jef ans
unsavory records behind him.
| George Dixon, Joe Gans, Peter
Jackson arid Jue Wolcott ar
among the foremost Negro fighters
fin modern history. "All survived
many yews of ring warfare and
figured in hundreds vf Dattles
(Yet they ended their careers in 3
jolie of glory. ‘They were whit
[champions or topnotchers, as fa
‘removed from Johnson in habits
las the north and south poles.
F Both Dixon and Gans lived
hauietly and cleauly—something
|thut cannot be said of all the white
‘champions.
; The Negro race must not be
penalized with Me accusation tsa
fe champion would reflect discredit
upon pugilism angerely because
Johnson did su. His was an isolat
Jed ese, Success, fame, naturally
‘weak morals and an abundance o
|money—all contributed ta John:
Ison's downfall, Just beeause he
slipped and became involved it
numerous escapades is no reasor
Ito assume that other Negro fighters
would do the same if they became
champion,
Personally, I velleve that i
|Dempsey ever took on Wills .the
‘champion would win without much
‘effort. Wills is one of thuse slow:
moving fellows of the type seem:
lingly made to order for Dempsey
Wills, in his fight with Fulton
Idenionstrated certain weaknesses
lmost conspicuous of which wat
slow punching and frequent miss
ling, Fig missed Fulton a dozer
Himes or more with off-balanc
tpunehus—and sult won the fight
Lut he will not win any fight with
Dempsey if he executes uny suc)
| misses.
+ Wills’ conduct in or out of rin;
igo far has been above criticisin
‘He ts x quiet, clean living, home
Hloving Negro.” He has had «re
sponsible degree uf success, con
siderable praise. but it hasn't turn
ied his head. He ix modest, quic
‘and_unassuming,
| Wills’ habits are good.
| Wills has mabe a good record
a fighter: Perhaps he isn't it
Dempsey’s class. But HC the tiny
comes when Dempsey wants t
fight, and he has knocked over thi
Wilalrd und Carpentier opposition
Wills should not be denied
chance simply because he was bor!
a Negro.

BROOKS MURDERER
NOT APPREHENDED
Arrylle Avenue Residents' Refuse
To Discuss Cases of Saturday
Night Fatality
The neighborhood of Arrylle
avenue and Greenwillow street was
thrown into turmoil last Saturday
night by the final shocking of
Henry Brooks, 30 years of age and
a native of Florida.
The tragedy occurred at 1003
Arrylle avenue, the alleged assailant
being a man named Knox, and
followed a quarrel. Brooks was
pushed to Mercy Hospital where he
died within twenty minutes. Three
bullets had been fired into his
head just above his left eye. The
assailant escaped.
The men are sold to have a stiff quarrel about a woman, terminating in the murder. Inquiry at the Anglo-American residence failed to elicit any information about what led to the tragedy, everybody professing ignorance. An inquest will be held at the Central Police Station on Friday evening, January 14.

Honesty prevails among the revenue agents of his district. Mr. Stone declares, and this gives a clean bill of health to W. J. Green, the only colored agent in this section.

Introduces Modern Methods Into The Catering Business Also Engaged In Banking. Widely Traveled And Well Read. He Takes A Lively Interest In
All Baltimore knows Edmund Bernard Taylor, caterer and member of the banking firm of Taylor and Jenkins.
A native of this city, educated in his public schools, he was graduated from the Colored High School in 1897. During his high school days it was clerk and bookkeeper to the late George T. Bowen, steward at Atheneum and Merchants' clubs and well known caterer.
To the surprise of everybody—for the ambition of 79 out of every 100 graduates of high school a generation ago was to reach in the city schools—he declined an appointment as a teacher.
When Caterer Lewis Butler died Mr. Taylor bought out the business and then began a career which has resulted in his being widely and favorably known to prominent residents of this and other communities.
A man of modern ideas he started in to learn the latest in the catering line, and made a special trip to Europe to gain new ideas. His place at 886 Linden avenue presents a busy scene daily providing high-sounding means for artistic folks. He has served some of the largest banquets in this and other cities. He and Mr. C. Henry Jenkins are in the banking business at 323 W. Biddle street. A branch was recently established at 505 N. Caroline street. This venture has prospered beyond the most sanguine expectations. Mr. Taylor has been interested in a number of altruistic movements, including the Niagara Movement. He was one of those who contributed to the financial support of the Horizon, a publication which
immediately preceded the Crisis.
He is widely read and much-traveled and at home among all classes. Speaking of hobbies, Mr. game. He was one of those inter-Taylor says he likes the newspaper ested in the old Lancton. He was an alternate delegate to the last Republican National Convention, and is taking an interest in civic affairs. He is an intimate friend of Dr. W. F. B. DuBois and counted the late Paul Laurence Dunbar among his intimates.
Mr. Taylor is a member of the Masons and Elks. He is married and lives at 305 W. Biddle street.

FROM WAITER TO LEGISLATOR
Out in Missouri some thotless folks laughed last week over the spectacle of a former colored waiter sitting in the Missouri legislature.
Folks like them snickered when a certain Jew and former carpenter gave the sermon on the mount, and when a former rail spitter and backwoodsman by the name of Abraham Lincoln took the field to debate against a "silkstocking" and cultured orator like Stephen A. Douglass.
"There is no way to keep a good man down," according to the common every day expression, and that is the reason why Waltball Moore of St. Louis, who is a one-time hash slinger in the best known hotels of his city sits this very day in the lower house of the legislature in Jefferson City. He is the first colored man ever to have been elected, and he has been given the most conspicuous seat in the assembly, from which behind flowers that covered his desk, he looks out for new opportunities to serve his constituents at home.
KIPLING'S SERGEANT
Rudyard Kipling recounts the single handed capture of twenty-eight men by a sergeant of the English army, who marched his men back to camp without losing a single one by making each one remove his suspenders. The prisoners had to use their hands to hold up their trousers, and therefore could not escape.
The Elkton, Maryland bandits, who held up a white man and then took off all his clothing in order to prevent him from seeking help evidently read about Kipling's service.
POOR "BILI"
Mayor "Bill" Browning is still at his old tactics of appointing white men only to fill vacancies in the city departments.
Last week he appointed J. Albert Cassidy and Dr. John J. McGinnity, both white, on the Board of Supervisors of City Charities, which Board will control the expenditure during the year of a million dollars of city funds.
Here is the way the money was spent in 1920:
CITY OFFICES—for salaries and expenses $14,000.
BAY VIEW ASYLUM—for salaries and expenses, $401,436
CARE OF THE INSANE—expenses, $214,000
CITY PATIENTS IN HOSPITAL—$135,000
DESTITUTE AND NEOLECTED CHILDREN—$50,000
DISPENSARY SERVICE*—$19,000
TEMPORARY CARE OF HOMELESS
MEN*—$2,000
MARYLAND WORKSHOP FOR BLIND
—$5,000
TRANSPORTATION OF POOR—$1,000
REFORMATORIES—$140,000
In all of these institutions for which appropriations are made from the city funds, colored citizens as well as white, will be cared for. This is as it should be, for every colored person who owns $100 worth of property pays 14 cents in taxes on it to create this part of the city budget.
On the other hand, not only is the Board of Charities all white, but the hundreds of workers in the reformatories and city charity institutions are all white. In Bay View Asylum alone 203 employees, from the $300 cook to the $3,000 superintendent, are all white.
- Mayor Preston, a Democrat, when head of city affairs, said on one occasion that he never opened any positions to colored people because they did not vote him into office. We wonder what reason the artful und "evasive" Republican Mayor Broening has for continuing the game policy.
OUT SINGING THE BLUES
"When you get discouraged, go outside and look at the stars." This the advice of a famous philosopher and anybody with the "blues" can give it a trial.
The "blues" are commonly diagnosed as a feeling of exaggerated self importance. A disappointment, a failure, a relapse, an illness, an accident to the individual may appear the worst calamity in the world, and death seem preferable to the approaching disgrace. In this situation take the advice of "looking up at the stars."
There they are millions and millions of miles above the earth, farther away than the sun, larger than many suns, silently twinkling and blinking as they have twinkled and blinked for the thousands and thousands of years already gone. Contemplating the immensity and the silence of the big universe, the burdens of the little world fall off one by one and lose themselves in the ocean of divine optimism. It is a good world. Yes sir.
The next time the "Grand United Order of Brothers and Sisters of I will Arise" kick you out of the order because you did not pay your dues in full and on time, and your fellow members of the Shields Alley Congregational Church spread that perfectly true rumor about a little mixup you had with the police department, so that everybody knows it, and to cap the climax, the landlord sets your household effects in the middle of the street on account of your continued inability to put the rent money in his hands, when these and other ills befall you, take a look at the stars instead of singing the blues.
WILL GOD PUNISH CRACKERS?
The writer of an anonymous letter to a Savannah, Georgia, white judge following a lynching in that state says He will. Here is the warning poorly worded but clear in its meaning:
"Recorder Swatz:—I am going to see what you are going to do with aristocratic white men of your class for shooting and lynching our race, if it had been our Colored men that burned and murdered a white man of your class, why you yourself has ordered out your whole force of blood-hounds and by her every Colored man and boy in Savannah, the right and the wrong and I suppose had him and you in your chair. As a judge, you are not worthy of your chair, because you are less than a gentleman to let a white man murder the Colored men what would you white people do. What could you do without a Negro,
"You can get up nothing unless a Negro is in it. Your family can do without a Negro, but still a Negro is not more than a dog in your sight. But you must remember that God is above you and He knows, and when he do come to judge He will be judge over you and over all the rest. He is going to judge you mighty hard, because you had caused a man of our Colored men and boys to sweat and lose their freedom, and you take a crime from a white man and put it on a Colored man, and you all beat our Colored women over the head with a black-jack as quick as you would kill a snake. But remember, your day is coming.
"From yours truly."
Evidently the "Judge" doubted the authority of the anonymous writer to speak for God, for he turned the letter over to the postal authorities to see if they could find and punish the offender.
FAREWELL TO BISHOP BROOKS
As Bishop W. Sampson Brooks and party leave New York on board the steamer Celtic Saturday hound for Liberia, West Africa by way of London, he will carry with him the good wishes and the prayers of thousands of Baltimoreans whose lives he has touched.
Bishop Brooks came to Baltimore three years ago as a pastor. This week he left the city a bishop in his church assigned to missionary work in Africa.
The African field is one of the most difficult assignments in any church. It demands that a bishop, who is usually well along in life, spend most of his time away from civilization in a hot climate to which he must accustom himself. Bishops have been known to break dawn and cry when the church assigned them to missionary work in Africa. But Bishop Brooks took his African assignment with a smile and with a smile he went out and raised in six months fifteen thousand dollars to build an industrial school and hospital in his new diocese.
Three years ago a Doctor Brooks, almost unknown came to Bethel Church then staggering under a mortgage debt of $63,000, which he started out to liquidate. People flocked to the church in unheard of numbers and rallies for unheard of sums wiped the mortgage off the records within two years. Members of his church declare that he is not a learned man, but that he has a wonderful personality. He is not a handsome man, they say, but his rugged honest smile and his human friendliness to everybody easily made him one of the most popular ministers in the city. Following his election to the bishopric, Bishop Brooks declared his intention of establishing an episcopal residence in Baltimore. Hundreds of friends who say farewell to him as he leaves, hope that he will be successful in his mission, and return in later years to live among them.
AN ANCIENT MASONIC DOCUMENT
The AFRO-AMERICAN editorial rooms were moved, the other day from the second floor to large and commodious quarters in the third story of the building, and in the process, workmen discovered the following document printed on linen parchment and nailed to a eight by twelve inch bulletin board.
Part of the parchment was worn but the printing was in good condition:
A. L. 5855
BALTIMORE, January 20, 1855.
Know ye that having established a council of Masons by the name style and title of STAR OF BETHLEHEM and being associated as Princes of Jerusalem, and Sovereign Pontifit Masons, and in possession of the Royal Secret do proclaim on the wings of the morning that we are ready to grant letters of Dispensations of Warrants for any of the fifty-two Degrees of Ancient York Masonry in the State of Maryland, and not contrary wise, observing all the ancient landmarks from Enoch till the time being. Done in open council. And in testimony whereof we have affixed our sign, the signet of truth.
LEMUEL G. GRIFFIN

JENSON JACKSON

The document dates back five years before the Civil War, and if it could express itself articulately would undoubtedly settle the difficulties between the York Rite Masons and the Free and Accepted Masons in a matter suitable to both.
THE CATHOLIC CHURCH TELLS THE KU KLUX WHERE TO GET
From N. Y. Catholic News
"Reports state that the Ku Klux Klan is organizing a branch in New York and branches in Chicago and other cities. The commander or 'supreme wizard,' as he is styled, of this organization says, it is reported, that there are thousands of newly initiated citizens of his invisible empire.
"From what we know of this organization and similar societies through their operations in the extreme South, we feel justified in warning all American citizens against 'invisible empires' whose power is seemingly aimed at the peace and well-being of other citizens. Catholics and the Knights of Columbus have been and are objects of open hostility on the part of these organizations in the extreme South. We shall no longer lightly tolerate active bigotry that aims to disturb the peace of society by stirring up unfounded suspicions among persons of different religious views.
"The Knights of Columbus profess no invisible power. The record of the K. of C. during the war and after the war and long before the war is plain. We have served the country quite invisibly and intend to continue that service. And we intend, so far as possible, to make fomenters of religious calumny and discord legally responsible for their acts."
THE WEEK'S BEST EDITORIAL
"Rather Snippy"
The Boston Post puts the spot light on cracker procedure in Washington
The refusal of certain Southern members of the House census committee to be photographed with colored men at a hearing on congressional reapportionment the other day strikes us as being rather "snippy." The Negroes were men of good standing and ability who had come to the hearing to testify as to the perfectly well-known disfranchisement of their people "down South." They were decent citizens whose chief fault in the eyes of the gentlemen from below the "line" was that their skins were dark.
One of the protestants left the room when he saw that the terrible sacrilege of picturing him in company with colored persons was about to be committed. Another refused to quit, but declared that he would "raise hell" if an attempt to take a photograph was made. The committee weakly solved the difficulty by going into executive session, thus clearing the room, when a group picture was made—all white. We have seen some group pictures in which Negroes and white men were taken together. They were at the battle-fronts of the "Great War." There was no protest there, nor did the white "boys" go into executive session to get rid of their darker comrades-in-arms.
THE WEEK'S WORST EDITORIAL
Tribute to a Good Cook
Her virtues were that she cooked well, played the piano and led her race (?) by foolishly spending a month's salary for a dinner to friends.
From the Mount Sterling Advocate
On December 17 Amy Scott of color departed this life and entered heaven after having been a sincere Christian for forty years and nine months to the day. She belonged to a high class colored family. Her skin was black, but her soul was white, and she had many qualities that could be adopted by her race to its advantage. There are not many Negroes the equal of Amy Scott in more ways than one.
For sixteen years Amy Scott was the highly appreciated servant of Hon. B. J. Peters, who for four terms was Chief Justice of the Court of Appeals. Upon his death and that of his wife she hunted up another family of quality and lived. She was a leader of her race, had the first upright piano owned by her people in the county and could play it with quite a good deal of proficiency. She could recite pretty well.
Amy had been with the Bean family for twenty-four years. Her dinners to her friends of colore were fit to set before a king, oftentimes costing her a month's wages. She was a woman or honesty and had the respect of both white and black, and took great pride in being better than the common herd. She was one of the best cooks in the bluegrass and took great pride in excelling others.

WORKING, SAVING AND INVESTING By George W. Blount
---
Individually and collectively, if we spend all that we earn it indicates that we are lacking in the habits of thrift and economy; to spend more than we earn is to invite financial disaster. The only financially sound course to pursue is to maintain a reasonably safe financial margin between "a prosperous today and an uncertain tomorrow."
There is constant and widespread complaint of the extravagance of American Negroes, and inasmuch as there is some truth in the statement—there is precious little consolation in the thought that—"we are, in that respect, just like other people." It may be that other people can afford to be extravagant (2). Can we afford it?
Many of us think it is shameful to be considered economical and thrifty. It is far better to WORK hard, SAVE regularly, and INVEST in good securities and be considered "stingy" than to be identified with the thriftless persons who are blind to their future needs.
It is an interesting study to watch the lines of depositors going toward the windows of Banks, Christmas Savings Clubs, Building and Loan Associations, and Insurance Companies. By working, saving, and investing in good securities, these men, women, boys, and girls are establishing for themselves financial protection against the rainy day which will eventually come to each of us—if it has not already come to some of us (?).
In every section of the country one can easily tell the working, saving, investing, far-thinking, and far-seeing Negroes by the number of well-built Churches, Banks, Christmas Savings Clubs, Building and Loan Associations, its life insurance policy-
by them, and the amount of money invested in racial stock companies or co-operative enterprises.
We must more and more encourage and cultivate the working, saving, and investing habits. We should think carefully before we spend all the money we earn. Every dollar saved and invested wisely and is earning interest or a dividend adds to our peace of mind, self-respect, pride of race, and contributes substantially to the economic strength and financial security of the American Negroes individually and collectively.
RACIAL "RIGHT-MINDEDNESS"
Rev. Goo, F. Bragg recalls a speech of the great preacher made at Lincoln University many years ago.
"The youth of the present day are very many years in advance of their fathers. One marked and dangerous peculiarly, however, constantly betrays itself: the stream of tendency among cultivated colored Americans is too exclusively aesthetical. There is a universal inclination to that which is pleasing, polished and adorning. Where there is cultivation, it is mainly in poetry, music, fiction, private theatricals, the Opera. There is much elegance and real taste in house decoration; and dress is everywhere, and in a true sense of the term, a Fine Art. The mind of our people seems to be a hot-bed of rich, precocious, gorgeous, and withau genuine plants;—and, if I mistake not, I discover in it all, that permanent TROPICAL element which characterizes all the peoples whose ancestral homes were in the Southern latitudes; and who may be called "children of the sun."
I find no fault with this tendency. I regard it one of the most natural outgrowth from the soil of our African nature. Believe me there is nothing more abiding, nothing more persistent than race, and race peculiarities. No people can be regarded as wise who look upon these tendencies as weeds; and who will strive rudely to pluck them up, and destroy them.
Whatever is natural, is, in its due measure, healthy and elevating. These aesthetic tendency is a grand and opulent capital wherewith to commence the work of responsible life and duty. It serves, up to a certain point, to deliver a people from the control of the gross and vulgar. It gives very considerably, the fine aptitudes, for the super-sensuet. And without doubt this same tendency, has been a large element in all human progress and development.
"These polished arts have civilized mankind,
Softened the rude and calmed the boisterous mind."
At the same time, I must say, that this love of the beautiful among our people shows all the signs of being but a mere possession. It looks like tendency; and but little else. I see, nowhere, any counterbalance of the hardier studies, and more tasking scholarship, which serve to give vigor, harbood and robustness to a race. I discover nowhere distinctive end or aim in it.
"The river windeth at its own sweet will." It is, so far as I can see, mere, unrestrained spontaneity; and spontaneity, valuable as it is, requires the restraints and limitations; which can only be furnished by the imperial faculties of the moral and mental nature, the Conscience and Reason. . . . If you are to be leaders, teachers and guides among your people, you must have strength. No people can be fed, no people built up on flowers. Aesthetics, while indeed they give outward adornment, and inward delicate sensibility, tend but little, in the first place, to furnish that hardy muscle and strong five, which men need in the stern battles of life; nor, next, do they beget that tenacity, that endurance, that positive and unwavering persistence, which is the special need of a new people, running a race which they have never before entered upon; and undertaking civilizing achievements, from which their powers and faculties have been separated for long centuries.
SPIRITICAL PROWESS OF
JACK JOHNSON
By William Pickens
We are not discussing here the personal morality of Jack Johnson; but even that must be much above the level of the average white member of his profession, or he would never have the physical and moral courage which he undoubtedly has. The physical prowess may be what strikes you; that a man of his age and in the penitentiary should out box two strong men without leaving the ring. But that is not half so impressive as the SPIRITUAL PROWESS of his race; that a man who has been harried and hounded all over the world, and stood face to face with its most seductive temptations, and finally, landed in a national prison, because of an act of mistaken kindness on his part,—that such a man should show such SPIRIT, is the most remarkable thing in the history of his class. It is the spirit of his race. He always laughed in the face of disaster or on the edge of a crisis. He joked and "guyed" every white man he ever boxed with, while the white man was as grim and as serious as death.
Can you imagine Dempsey or Willard or Carpentier in the same penitentiary under the power of another race, and yet in the same/spirit? You are certain that you CANNOT—and you are NOT certain that either of the men named could in a fair fight "lick" Jack Johnson today.

Pastor Stratchian Says Sunday Observance Laws Only Make Hypocrites.
To the Editor:
A law compelling men to keep Sunday or any other day as if they thought it sacred, would be enforcing a religious dogma and compelling people to acquiesce outwardly in the religious ideas of others.
Religious laws make hypocrites.
The conscientious man objects, and gets into trouble. It is certainly time for the ideas which controlled the religious persecutors of the sixteenth century to be banished, never to appear again.
That we have not attained the ideal is proof of the limitations of our fallen nature. There is in government absolutely no power to lift mankind to a higher spiritual plane. The sooner this is recognized, the better.
All religious legislation has had as its object but one thing;—the enforcement of certain dogmas held by some man or class of men. There has been coupled with this, the fear that, if left without the power of the civil law, these doctrines would not find favor in the minds of the masses.
No religion which commands itself, and which reaches the souls of men, needs the power of civil legislation. Place two dogmas side by side;—one may win the other lose. The one which wins will ask for no help from the civil power. Is has in itself elements of success. That one element is truth.
Souls hungry for the bread of life see in it that which is satisfying. No need of driving them to it. Its beauty draws them. The other, lacking these elements, resorts to enforce; unable to win by its virtue, and thus to reach the soul, it appeals to the civil power and rules the body, compelling an outward obedience to a pretended spiritual doctrine.
Any religion which has not the inherent power to perpetuate itsself is not worthy to live.

Protests Against Jim Crow Arrangements For Hardling Inauguration
The Honorable Edw. B. Mclean and
Inaugural Committee, Wash. D. C.
Ope-e n.EL.ooOOSIREYTH CPTCOS
Thev a colored member of the college committee and his assignment to superintend the affairs of colored clubs etc. we detect the survival of this principle which has mortified our souls and diminished our national spirit during the eight years. We have thought and now think that there is no actual need for a colored man on or as a member of your committee. It is for race respect in the first instance and not for place for which we petition, we know that there should be none upon it if he functioned simply to perpetuate this principle of discrimination. We will and all other colored people should decline to participate at the Imaguration of this principle of insult and humiliation.
The absence of our and all other political, benevolent, civil and patriotic clubs of the different parts of the country from the parade and other features attending the inaugural festivities will in no appreciable degree modify them nor the pleasures of the narrow people whose enjoyment will be probably augmented by our absence. By our thus absenting ourselves we will have however served them and retained our self respect, we shall therefore petition all colored bodies to decline to participate in these festivities under any distinctive arrangement which shall be supervised by any person, white or colored, in that person's commission is authenticated by the color line.
Are we citizens? If we are, desire to be arranged for, as are all other citizens.
It is the opinion of this club that petitions your body to remove every vistage of color discrimination and degradation from the arrangements you are making for the Inaugural festivities. That he colored people, Americans all, will not participate in nor sanction their own dishonoring and humiliation and that they will and ought to vote out of the legislature of different states and of both houses of congress those of whatever party who seek to perpetuate and peretrate upon them the Wilsonian abuses.

to justify the statements I have al-
ready made."
so speaking, he put his hand in the bosom of his robe and withdrew the horseshoe magnet with its armature, which he handed to me with the request that I would test its attractive power, which I did. The magnet was a strong one and I could feel the pull on the armature when there was a distance of a quarter of an inch between them. Then he produced from an inside pocket a thin sheet made of some material I did not recognize, but which had somewhat the appearance of celluloid. It was made up, however, of two sheets cunningly joined side by side, the dividing line running down the middle and the two parts being about equal in size and dimensions.
They were of the same color, but one was polished and smooth, while the other was dull and while not rough, looked unfinished.
"These two sheets joined in the middle, as you see, are of the same thickness, but one of them is composed of our insulating medium, while the other, although of nearly the same composition, has not been subjected to the final treatment and has no insulating power. Now try them," and he held the sheet horizontally before me, the polished surface being the nearest. I applied the magnet to the upper surface of the sheet and held up the armature on the under side. It was immediately drawn out of my hand, as I had expected and clapped firmly against the under surface of the plate and held there. Under instructions, I held the magnet in position while my host slipped the sheet along between magnet and armature. As soon as the dividing line was reached, and the dull material passed beneath the magnet, the armature fell to the ground. My surprise, of course, was great. I picked it up, and taking the sheet in my own hand, tested it over and over again, but the result was invariable. When the sheet of dull-stuff was interposed the attractive force of the magnet was instantly annuled. There was no doubt about it, and it required very little imagination on my part to appreciate the mechanical possibilities that lay in this simple but astounding invention.
"You are satisfied of the truth of my first assertion" he inquired, and I readily assent. "It was not so much of a strain on your credibility as my next demonstration will be, because, although your people have never made the discovery, it is not so altogether out of line with what they have found out before as to be absolutely incredible to you, especially when you see it with your own eyes. But now, I warn you, your belief in the possible 45 to be taxed to the utmost, and I hope you will endure the shock to your preconceived notions without losing your equilpoise."
"You need not worry about men," I said, "nothing you can show me will disturb your equilpoise."
"Very well, then," and he took up, for the first time since it had been brought over by the boy, the table-top as I called it. I then noticed, for the first time, that all around the edge were small round knobs, like the handles of small drawers, and such in fact they proved to be, for he withdrew one from another, around one half the board, thin sheets that looked very much like dull material with which we had been making our tests of the magnet. These sheets having been removed and laid beside him on the grass he put the board down that upon the ground, and picked the vicinity, which he handed to me, and picked up a few small stones in I was standing at the time about four or five feet from the board and as he gave me the pebbles he asked me, to throw them one by one on the board. As did so and was considerably surprised to notice that one or two of this first trial) that one or two of them, I say, appeared to swore a little so side and they all laided on that half of the board from which he removed the slides. He smiled at my expression and handed the pebbles to me again. In order to determine the accuracy of my previous observation, I threw the six pebbles, this time, with deliberate intention so that they should fall on the half nearest to me, which was the part from which the slides had not been removed. My suspicion was correct. Not one of them fell where I intended it to fall. They all swerved in the air and struck the farther side. Now considering that the board was only four or five feet away, and I threw with deliberation and care, this outcome of my effort puzzled me a good deal. Seeing this, my host turned the board around so that the empty half was toward me, and I had no trouble in handling all the stones on this half of the board. He then asked me to throw on the other half, as I did before the part farther away. I threw them as before and one after another, in spite of four threepacing tears in making this throw, every one handed on the heart part of the board. Non only that but one of them at least, when raised at the middle line, seemed as if bounded back, so sudden was its illusible change of direction.
I then showing you these gradually the unmarked with his placid smile so that you may get accustomed them without too much of a wrinkle to your audience, ideas of what regular and proper in Nature.
At this point he inserted again all the slides which were lying beside the board, thus making both sides similar again.
"Now," he said, "the insulation is complete. Try your pebbles again."
I took them up and tossed one toward the board. It went as any well conducted missile would go until in its descending curve it came to a point vertically above the edge of the board, and then toward for a horizontal one and dropped on the ground on the other side, at the feet of the Negro. One after another flew over the board in the same way, and my astonishment was so great that I drew immy breath with a loud "Whew," that seemed to please the Negro immensely, although his dignity, real or assumed, would not allow him more than a smile of un usually broad proportions.
"Yu are doing well," he said; "let us go a little further. Hold a pebble over the middle of the board and drop it."
I picked one of them up and holding it over the center of the board felt a curious sense of lightness in my arm and a seeming lack of control, for the arm rose a little in the air without my volition and it required a decided readjustment of its muscular action to bring it down again to a level. I saw the Negro smile as he notched the action, and then I dropped the stone. Instead of falling, it shot out horizontally toward the black man until it reached the edge of the board when it fell to the earth at his feet. To say that I was surprised hardly expresses my feelings, but I had seen jugglers do many wonderful things, and I was still disposed to charge these curious happenings to some sort of trickery. The only comment he made was to murmur.
"The pebble, being cut off from terrestrial gravitation was attracted toward me as the nearest and largest material object, until it came again within the sphere of the earth's attraction."
I said nothing, but pondered a little, and waited to see what might be the next performance on the programme. Meanwhile I seated myself under a tree, where I could watch the proceedings at my case. Presently he began to take the board of table-top apart. He removed all the slides, and then from the interior he brought out other contents, which I had not seen before, and for which there hardly seemed to be room inside. But there they were and he pulled out a lot of things, reminding me still more of a conjurer, whobrinks out a whole dry goods store and a menagerie from the hat he has borrowed from a spectator. First there were several lengths of wire, as it seemed tame, although they were so extremely flexible that they swung from his fingers like strings. But they had a metallic luster and I took them to be wire that had undergone some peculiar method of annealing. Then out came several short rods, and these were stiff
and pointed at both ends apparently made of metal but brownish red in co color, reminding me of the curious bomb-proofs or whatever they were, that I had seen when approaching this singular community.
He chose a spot underneath an overhanging branch, and after some rather careful changes and readjustments of their position and angies toward each other and the ground, he stuck the small rods into the earth, inclining toward each other and near enough to cross, like the Letter X, and so constructed a little fence, about three feet long and perhaps four inches high under a parallel with the branch which stretched almost horizontally overhead. He then lung several of the wires of strings from the tree, immediately over this fence at intervals of six inches or so, letting each one down so as to touch the fence below. I felt impelled to ask him what they were wires or strings, but he answered, rather shortly I thought, "Neither."
I was not to be shaken off, however, before I had satisfied my curiosity, and so I said:
"They look, and those little rods also looks, as if they might be made of the same material as the spherical pronunciences I saw just beyond the hills."
"There is some similarity," he replied.
"What were those things? Telephones?"
"We use them sometimes for that purpose. We can communicate speech through them."
"What for instance?"
"I will show you one," he said, "when we visit the public buildings you 'see down there."
"But I wish to find out all I can during the short time I remain here." I said, with some heat and impatience.
"Pray God you may never have cause to know," he said, with and air of solenity, and put another word would he speak about them, but went silently on, with his work.
When he had completed his arrangement and the various rearrangements of the rods and strings he came away and seated himself by my side, I be-
gan to fel that he was very much in earnest, and so suspect that trickery or legerdemain perhaps not account for all that I had seen. I myself knew several tricks, very puzzling to the uninitiated, which depended upon invisible threads and small plugs of wax for their successful performance, but sharp as I might look I could detect nothing of the kind in these actions of my host, who appeared to be perfectly honest and serious in everything he showed me.
We sat side by side without speaking for perhaps ten minutes, myself watching keenly, and now and then gazing over the landscape, at men and women busily occupied in their daily tasks, at the children running to and fro or chasing balls in their games, and he profoundly meditative, with his eyes fixed upon his little mechanical appliances. I was, I confess, a little appiqed b y the cart way in which he had disposed of my questions, but when I came to consider what he had already told me about the profound and deadly secret in the possession of his people, with their jealously of the white man and their determination that he should never know it. I realized that he was probably right, and that I had been trying to obtain information that he was in every bound not to disclose. I understood now that my inquiries must be circumscribed within certain bounds—that beyond these I could never go.
Do not attempt, while you are with us, to mediate with anything with which you are not already perfectly familiar. You are in a new environment, of which you know nothing.
Now I was sure that I had to deal with a crazy man, one of the cool-blooded kind who appear perfectly san excepting on one single point, a monamance, or as it is new fashionable to call them, paranoid. I began to fear that he might develop ... homicidal tendency, and I speculated when on my extraordinary situation, and on what chance I had of escaping from these black men with a whole skin.
The Negro, who, after this momentary flush of excitement had passed, seemed to have recovered his equanimity, now spoke again, before I had time to formulate any plan of dealing with him.
“This is the last demonstration I shall give you before we go down and meet some of the other members of the community.”
“Very well,” I said. “I should like to see your whole whole bunch of tricks. They are good ones so far as you have gone.”
“You are still suspicious,” he said, with that inscrutable smile of his, “but will be less so after this test of your incredulity.” He paused a moment, walked over and took a last squint at his toy-like arrangement, and

Presently he rose and went over to the lap where he had stuck his rods and lung his strings, and began to remove all the strings excepting the ones; but first he laid one along the bough, connecting at each end with the strings hanging from the ends. Now he began the operation of removal very cautiously. It seemed to me that he humbled a great deal in unfastening them from the bough, either from awkwardness or some excessive and, as it seemed to me unnecessary caution, and I stepped forward to assist him. They were very insecurely attached to the bough, hardly more than barely hooked over it, and I put out a hand to switch one of them away. Instantly he swung his arm and struck me a staggering blow in the chest, which almost threw me off my feet. As it was I was knocked backward three or four feet, for he was a much larger and more powerful man than I and the rudeness of the assault astonished me, contrasting so strongly with the kind and considerate behavior of the man up to that time. At the moment I thought again I had to deal with an unnatural, but he immediately turned and grasped my arm to support me, while he caught his breath with a gasp.
"Hardon me," he said at length when he had recovered himself, "I was foolish. I should have warned you. I am sorry for what has occurred, but it was the only way. If you had touched one of those strings, as you intended to do, you would have died on the instant," and while I gazed upon him with a look of incredulous horror, he added: "I have here tapped a reservoir of energy immeasurably greater than any you have ever known."

I took it from my pocket and ex-

announced it. It was an automatic, and loaded with smokeless powder cartridges. The magazine was full. I felt comparatively secure against any immediate attack, and if he spread upon me with evident intention to de my physical harm, I would have shot him on the spot, without regard to consequences.
He went back a few steps and stationed himself a few feet behind his strings and stick perhaps ten feet away from me.
"Now," he says, "I want you to fire at me with that pistol, if you think you can throw your bullets within the limits I have arranged between the tree and the earth. But do not fire outside of those bounds."
What a request! I am not a dead shot with the revolver, but I could certainly put ten holes through him at that short distance within a minute. I declined to make the trial.
"I won't do it," I exclaimed. "I have seen tricks on the stage, but the circumstances were entirely different. You could not stand a minute under such a rain of bullets, and this is no trick pistol, nor are the bullets fake one."
"Shoot away. I will run the risk."
"No, no. I absolutely refuse," and I throw the pistol upon the ground.
He stood a moment irresolute, then quietly removed his out garment, a white flowing robe and suspended if from a branch in the rear of the one from which the strings were hanging.

"Yes." 1 replied, "it is loaded."
"Well," he said, "I am sorry you have so little confidence in me, but you will at least condescend to exhibit your marksmanship on that robe, will you not."
"I certainly will," said I. "if you do not object to having it peppered full of holes. It is not much of a test of marksmanship, though. It is a good deal like trying to hit a barn door with the muzzle of the gun in contact with it. I should rather stand fifty or sixty feet away."
"That would not answer my purpose nor would it convince you yourself. If you found no marks upon the cloth at that distance you would think you had missed your aim. No matter how much chagrined you might be, that would be your conclusion."
"And you want—"
"I want you to shoot at that robe from a point so near that you will feel absolutely certain of hitting it."
"Very well. And you think I can't hit it?"
"How ridiculous. Why it covers the entire ground back of the hole in the air you tell me to shoot through, and I am only three or four feet away. I could not help hitting with my eyes shut."
1 raised the weapon and fired.
Not amurk upon the white surface of the targe. I fired again. Still on mark. Nor had the white robe stirred as it hung, or showed any sign of having been touched. I was not only surprised but annoyed, and immediately suspected that my saue and dignified host had so far unburied to do me a mean trick by sustituting blank cartridges in the revolver. How he
just night. Why had I not thought of it before? I had looked the weapon over before I began diving, but as everything looked alright I had no examined the cartridges closely, no deeming it necessary. But now I determined to make sure, and removing the magazine emptied the cartridges and picking them up one by one serumized them with great care. A side glance showed me the Negro sitting quietly in his place, with the inscrutable smile that so provoked me. The cartridges were all right. There could be no doubt of that. They had the stamp off, he manufacturer on the base, and as I tested the bullet with my pocket knife, I found it hard stoked. The cartridges were genuine. The
is supposed to hit the mark whether you aim or not. So, puzzled as I was, I slipped the magazine back into places for another trial. This time I took more careful aim, and, as I have said before, I not a bad shot with the
revolver under any circumstances. I tried again. No result. Not a mark on the target, not a leaf stirred or any tree of bush, not a blade of grass bent its head, and not a speck of dirt I began to indicate where the bullet struck began to be provoked. This beak
any trek I had ever seen, but I objected to having it played upon me. I fired the remaining shots, looked around, saw the grin widening on the face of the black, and fairly carried away with a feeling of exasperated rage, hurried the pistol at the target.
"I will hit it anyhow," I cried, and as I smoke I stood with mouth agape, fixed to the spot and almost horror-striken, for as the weapon reached the imaginary certain between me and the target, it vanished, leaving not a trace. Vulnerable into thin air: "The thing was impossible. And yet there it was. It had happened right before my eyes. How could it be?" I looked around at my friend. He smiled again and quietly remarked, as he rose from his sitting position:

"It is gone. You will never see it again. You have lost it, and it can never be recovered."
"But how it that?" I replied. "I suppose the trick is done. I must admit that you surpass the best I ever saw. But now that he exhibition is complete, I expect my revolver and ammunition to be returned to me."
"That is impossible, my friend. There is no trick involved in this demonstration, as I have told you from the first. I have been showing you of the inventions and discoveries made by our race, which have given us our position at the head of mankind. I had hoped to convince you before this."
"But where are these things that have disappeared?" I asked with some impatience. Meanwhile he carefully dismantling his apparatuses of strings and sticks, and stowing them away where they came from.
"I do not know, nor does anyone. Our scientists tell us that objects disappearing under such circumstances are possibly resolved into the original element. They say that we have opened a door into another world, and that these vanishing material things go through that door into another phase of existence. It is only a crack and no foot or eye has ever been able to pass through it and return. Nobody can tell what is on the other side. Our learned men, among the physicists, have been working for a thousand years, ever since this phenomenon was discovered, to arrive at some explanation of it, but all in vain. You can from an biea, now, from what you have already seen, why we are so confident of our power, and why we fear no attack from anyone on the face of the earth, especially from any white man."
By this time he had gathered up his apparatus and suggested that we should go down again into the settlement.
"I fear," he remarked as we set out, "that our time is short. It is now almost noon. Do you wish to take lunch? For myself I eat but twice a day, but you can eat now if you choose."
I had taken a very hearty breakfast and said that I would wait until later in the day before eating again. "Then we will go to some of our public buildings, for there are still some things I ought to show you before you return to your own people."
CHAPTER X
We directed our steps toward a low round structure, something like half a mile away, which he spoke of as the Camera, and I seized the opportunity as we walked leisurely along, to gain additional information about this strange country and still stalker people. I had already been forced to abandon all my preoccupied ideas about the Negro. While he was gathering his things together I had

been busily revolving in my mind what I had seen and heard since my arrival, I could no longer conceal from myself the unwelcome truth that I was in the company of a superior being. My pride of race was broken down. I felt myself to be an inferior, and unpatatable as this conclusion was I had to swallow it. With my mind once at rest on this point, however, and a frank acceptance of our relative position, I began to feel more like a pupil, and privileged to question him without my previous sense of humiliation. I determined to find out at all I could in the limited time I apparently had at my command.
"What is your form of government? I asked, "Republican, I suppose, as you came from the United States."
"We have no government," he replied; "that was done away with boy ago."
"No government! What do you do with your criminals? How do you keep order? How do you protect yourselves from aggression?"

Boys. How does it? Fine? All right then. Let's go!
First of all let's look. We need more news in our column. With all of our boy readers, and "something" from many of them, we should have so much news from week to week that the chief editor of the "Aro" would have to "boll" it down sufficient to fill our column with out - encrouching upon other valuable space.
Only once has this happened. "Twas last eck. The Boys' Editor sent quite a pack "stuff" and only "some" of it was published. And right here brings up another point - its this - when ever you send any thing to the Boy's Editor and it doesn't appear - don't become "offended" - don't get "hot" - don't - well - I mean don't say any "Sunday School" Words: Get me? It's not the Boy's Editor's fault. Don't blame the Chief Editor of the "Aro".
The Chief Editor is rendering the colored boys of America a real service in giving so much valuable space freely to their needs, without cost. And when we once stop to think how many paying "Ads" could be placed in the same space now occupied by the "Boys" Activity column—we could not help but come to the conclusion that we have no right to get "hot" because more space is not allowed just in order that this club or that Sunday School class of the other Athletic Association did not "get in" the paper "this week" or "such-and-such" a week.
So with the best of wishes for a bright and cherry and successful efforts on the part of each boy, we close from The Boys' Editor.
P. S. O. yes! Gee wizz! Great guns of Zion! I came very near forgetting something. Now b real quiet, stick up your cars, and "listen!"
This paper, the Afro, is published "In Baltimore." Now that's no reason not the least reason why, that boys of other cities, or boys from any county in the United States, or elsewhere, can't send us reports of the work in their locality.
We most cordially invite any boy, living anywhere, to send us a report or a letter about the work in your locality.
What's the matter with the Wissahickon Boys Club of Philadelphia? why can't we hear from them—they do some excellent work! All of the united Boys Clubs of America knows of them. The Wissahickon Club belongs to the "union."
What's the matter with the boys in Georgia? They used to send us reports once! St. Louis boys—get a move! Chicago boys join us! Boys form every where—lets hear from you. Address all mail to Charles A. Cary 1221 Ashland avenue, Baltimore. SOCIAL.
Mr. Maurice Barymore Dodd, Baltimore's most talented young actor, was highly entertained recently by Mr. E. A. Thomas and friends at his home 1413 Mullican St.
After the banquet, fruit and all kinds of light beverages were served. Mr. Maurice B. Dodd, and several members of Waters A. M. E. Boys Club were highly entertained by Mr. and Mrs. John Lee, 1728 Carlisle Place. In addition to the very excellent program of the evening Mr. Dodd gave a praise worthy exhibition of his powers along the line of both music and drama.
WATERS BOYS GOSPE
Our meeting last Friday night was a little different than usual: instead of the club having a regular meeting as we always do, the boys all went into the revival which was being held in another part of the church. We had the pleasure of seeing four of our boys converts to the cause of Christ—they were: Richard Jackson, Raymond Jackson, Eugene Grove, and Bernard Friis.
We hope these boys will keep up on their path and not fall off. Our regular meeting was to be the election but our election will be held over until the next meeting.
We are attempting to make this year a real "club year" with our boys' club and a successful one alos.

Make your skin bright, healthy and beautiful
A smooth, clear complexion of delicate softness, free from blemishes and blackheads, in indication of intelligent care and refinement
The Dr. Fred Palmer method of beauty treatment, if used with regularity, promises a reward that will warrant its systematic use.
You can secure a complete set of Dr. Fred Palmer's Toilet Preparations from your druggist.
First, steam the face, neck, hands and arms thoroughly with a turkish towel, as hot as the skin can bear. Repeat this three or four times. Then rub Dr. Fred Palmer Skin Whitener Soap gently into the skin with a soft wash rag, using hot water. Rub this lather gently, but thoroughly into the skin, and then rinse off thoroughly with hot water.
Next, with the finger tips, thoroughly rub Dr. Fred Palmer's Skin Whitener into the skin. Dr. Fred Palmer's Skin Whitener has earned for itself a reputation never attained by other skincreams. It's made by competent chemists, and only the best of each class of ingredients is used. It is creamy white, smooth as velvet, sweetly perfumed.
After rubbing the Skin Whitener in thoroughly, until it is absorbed by the skin, apply Dr. Fred Palmer's Skin Whitener Powder, a dainty, sweetly-scented face powder, that protects the face from sunburn or chafe, and enhances the lightness of the complexion.
In addition to the soap, cream and powder, Dr. Fred Polmer has prepared a hair dresser that is without equal for straightening, softening and increasing the growth of the hair. Only a hair dresser par-excellence would be marked with Dr. Fred Polmer's name, which has always stood for quality in toilet preparations.
25 cents each at your druggist, or cent post-paid upon receipt of the purchase price, plus 1 cent wear tax. (No war tax on soup)
