MYSTERIOUS KILLING EXPOSED BY CONFESSION Easton, Pa. Man Tells Police White Woman Helped To Kill Her Hus- ARRESTED AT GRAVE Elvah O'Connell Says "Not Guilty," But Is Taken To Easton, Pa., March 13. "It is a shame that a colored man should be allowed to come between you and your husband and those two little ones," declared Sheriff Hayes, in arresting Elvah O'Connell, white, at the cemetery just after the body of her murdered husband was lowered in the grave. Confession of Fred Pierson, the colored lover of Mrs. O'Connell, that the woman helped him plan the crime, that the body was to be buried on the farm, and that the two were to go West to live after things quieted down, led to the arrest. In the jail in a cell across from Pierson, Elvah O'Connell was taken and the charge read to her. She was asked how she desired to plead. There was silence for a moment and then the justice said, "You plead not guilty?" "Yes," answered the woman. "Didn't you have it planned to kill him on Monday?" he asked her: "No," was the answer. "He says you did." "He lies," fairly shouted the little woman. Then she sobbed for a few minutes, and asked for her children. FOUND!!! On Washington Pike on March 4th black traveling bag.

Taylor 29th YEAR No.26 Walks Into Weller's Office As Plea For Jobs Is Being Made LEADERS OBJECTED Powwow Is Resumed After Reporter Declares He Would Publish News Washington. March 17.—The unannounced entrance of a representative of the APROG-AMERICAN into the office of Senator Welter in the Senate Office Building, this Thursday morning threw conservation into a coteerie of colored men gathered there to tell the white party chieftians what they regarded should be the program for all the colored people of Maryland. The conference had been quietly arranged and only a few of the "steady regarters" had been let in on the secret. As the scribe walked into Senator Welter's rooms Rev. C. H. Steptoean, of Baltimore, was in the midst of a fervent portrayal of what those gathered there wanted. First and foremost, was the naming of Rev. Dr. Ernest Lyon as American minister to Liberia. "I am of the opinion, gentlemen—the Baltimore minister was saying as the AFRO man walked into the room. Confusion broke out. Dr. Stephan sat down, and Senators France and Weller, State Chairman Galen L. Tui, Hon. William P. Jackson, Congressman John Philip, Bill and other whites who were present looked on in surprise, wondering what it was all about. Grabbing the bit in his teeth, Joseph P. Evans, the Valimore barber who wants to be the United States marshal for Maryland, arose and objected to the serbite's presence. He asserted that the AFRO-AMERICAN had villified him. He was backed up by Dr. Lyon. Senator France tried to pour oil on the troubled waters by advising that now was the time when all should be in harmony. His words fell like water on a duck's back, however, the small coterie of gentlemen who claim to hold the destinies of the colored people of Maryland in the hollow of their hands being unwilling to let the newsmen tell how they told it to the white folks. The whites withdrew from the room, while the brethren met to decide on what to do with the reporter. "This is a private conference," said one. The reporter wanted to know what was private about matters affecting the entire colored people of Maryland. he: someone suggested that he Continued on Page 3 CUT OUT AND MAIL:— THE AFRO AMERICAN 85% on Checking Accounts with balance of over $200 Get one of our Home Banks by Opening Savings Account With $1 TAYLOR & JENKINS, BANKERS 820 242 N.

C., March 13.—President Harding and his cabinet are now functing and the horde of office hunters are growing less and less as the time of their round trip tickets expire. The several balls that were promoted to induce visitors to part with their good American dollars were more or less failures and the promoters are bemoaning their losses with sadness and distress, but are wiser and poorer. Several important measures died with the Sixty-sixth Congress and unfortunately among them was the bill of National Memorial Association asking for a site and an appropriation to erect a memorial to commemorate the military personnel colored soldiers and sailors who fought in all the wars of the nation. This very worthy bill was offered by Congressman L. C. Dyer of Missouri, early in the beginning of the last regular session of Congress, and was referred to the Committee Guild of New York was chairman. The committee was favorably impressed with the merits of the bill and would have reported it out with a favorable recommendation had it not been for the request of the appropriation committee that bills carrying an appropriation other than those absolutely for the needs of the Government be held Continued on Page 7.

Urban League Secretary Finds Situation "More Hopeful" In Large Western Cities 15,000 OUT IN DETROIT 1428 Chicago Workers Apply For 42 Available Jobs New York, March 13. (Special)—That the crest of the unemployment wave is passed and the situation for the colored worker is more hopeful is the view of Eugene Kinckle Jones, executive secretary of the Urban League. Mr. Jones has just issued a report on industrial conditions following his return from a tour of big industrial centers. He says: "In Buffalo, Detroit and Chicago there is considerable unemployment. Detroit is suffering a calamity! Between 150,000 and 200,000 men are out of work in the opinion of the Director of Social Service Department. Of this number more than 15,000 are colored. Twenty-four hundred colored families—almost the total number recently arrived in Detroit—are on the church lists of this department. No relief is expected in the few months and it will take a year for the normal situation to return. JOBS SCARCE IN CHICAGO In Chicago, a very interesting and successful experiment is being conducted. The Chicago Urban League acts as a sleeping house for individual and families who apply to the churches and other organizations on the south side. On applying to the League's office a card authorizing the applicant to receive lodging or meals is given, indicating the church or agency to which to apply. This reduces duplication and overhead expenses, thus enabling more persons to get the much needed meals. During the last week in February, 1125 men and 360 women applied for such help, and 124 meals, 560 lodgings were given. Jobs were never, for only 8 men and 4 men." "In Kansas City, St. Louis and Louisville, the situation is gradually becoming more, hopeful, although these cities are not able to absorb any new-comers. It will be many, many to know that they are still men and women who will quit their jobs at this time on slight provocation. "There is a much more hopeful situation existing in Pittsburgh, while men have been thrown out of employment, the Negroes have become unemployed in about the same proportion as the whites, talked with several superintendents of large plants who said that they had retained a larger proportion of Negroes and that in the Pittsburgh district they had assured themselves a personal place in industry because of the character of the work had performed in the few years. pursue "Withal, the industry's situation for the Negro is how it despite the advice which many are rendering to Negroes to return to South. The drive for the "one shop" on the part of employers automaticly applies with it the friendly attitude towards the Negro has not been treated fairly by organized labor and who feels resentful on the account."

While consternation reigned the cops went then the dancers and pulled out two pocket flasks and a revolver from the pocket of a white pen. A search was made for drugs but none was found. Sam Cole declared he could not open his safe, so police swung it out of the window and carried it to the station house. A revolver, several watches and $500 in cash was found in it. An Honest Doctor ```markdown ``` TELLS WHY HE HAS BEEN SO SUCCESSFUL Dr. Geo. L. McCullough, of Eutaw Place and North Ave., a former health officer and considered Baltimore's greatest specialist, on a recent interview with the writer that his success had come from trying his very best to cure his patients. Dr. McCullough said: "I have always prescribed for my patients what I feel my duty. Seeing so many cures from Herbs Of Life, I could not refrain from recommending it for Liver, Kidney, Stomach Trouble and Suspination. I have taken over patients after, ophysicians had them up and were successful in caring them with Herbs of Life. I believe it is a God Sent medicine." Advert.

METHODISTS PUSH $230,000 Paid Out This Year For Aid To Schools and Colleges New York, Mar. 17—Enlargement and extension of the Methodist Board for Negroes maintained in the South by the Methodists Episcopal Church, together with receipt of $305,000 out of the Centenaire Fund, reported in the current issue of the Christian Advocate, the Methodist weekly, by Dr. P. J. Mayevey. Corresponding Secretary of the Methodist Board of Education for the Freedmans Aid Society. This statement shows that of the $1,075,000 bledged for Negro education by the Methodist Conference, 40 percent was the end of the first — $230,000, over one-fourth of the entire sum has been paid, in spite of the fact that the financial depression has cut down the Centenary collections of the Negro education. The support given to the cause of Negro education by the leaders of the Methodist Episcopal Church thus exceeds that given to any other of the denominations in their funds which were apportioned on the basis of complete collection. This loyalty in time of depression and shrinkage has been much appreciated, and whose devotion to their church has been an outstanding feature of their group and was recognized in many speeches on the floor of the quadrennial General Conference at the Negro ministers were elected with full rank and powers.

DEAD MEN TELL NO TALES Monday—Paramount Artde Presents ELSIE I "HIS HOUSE A Great Dramatic Story which better than a rolling stone. A story that will linger for a long ... COMEDY—OR! GIRLS! THE FRIDAY, MARCH 18, 1921 THE NEW REGENT The vaudeville bill at the New Rockefeller work, is several degr ees degrees that of last week. "Duskball" and Cook, taking the place of Orano and Orano, opened with topical songs, a little bit of cantata and a song from "Next Bouncey" and Freeman, who have just returned from a trip around the world. This duo are big time entertain- ers. They are dancing, rather than sing- ing, they demonstrated their pro- ficiency in this art, in line style, closing with some aerobic steps at the house. "Dal" Williams Dixie Bell Company, closed the bill and pro- duced themselves as entertaining a group of performers as have appeared at the house. The music contigue is led by Mine. Williams, whose pleasing soprano voice has long since made her a favorite heroes, the chief conciel and his work. He above the average. Running him a close however, Floyd Young come in for a word of praise. Their anits in the maker's establishment, was a surprise. A bevy of half a dozen "brows and "high" assisted by two mates constitute the chorus, and likewise won a good hand. "The House of the Tolling Bell" was the chief picture opening on the stage. Monday, and proved popular reason in the cast, especially in the cast, especially the were the characters of the two old servants, played by a colored man and woman who showed that they knew something about acting art asite from "instructions" showed out by the "director." THE NEW LINCOLN The vaudeville bill at the New Lincoln this week, Jugging from the packed autogues, and the rounds of applause that greets everyone, we present what is patrons of this house "ordered." The bill comprises Charles Gaines' All-Star Steppers; Howxe and Howze; and Joe Russell, formerly of Russell and Russell, formerly of Russell, who opened with a humorous dialogue, singing and dancing. The man member of the team is a good comedian, while his remale companion shows intelligence in Joe Russell, got a good hand for his monologue and some eccentric dancing. Gaines' Steppers in a lengthy skit during which every member of the team displays their嵌入, engages the bill. Each one of them showed cleverness in their capers, but the honors went to Charles Gaines, who gave an exhibition of aerobic skating and wire walking equal to that is to be seen on the Keith circuit. THE STAR Camp and Camp, singing and dancing; sweet taddy song; biology; the most interesting Dick and Dick in a diversified enriched, the most entertaining of which were their impersonations of the children; the colored girl complete the vaudeville fare at the star this week. Dick and Dick proved the headache of the first-mentioned characterizations. Especially fine was Mr. Dick's condition of the song entitled; "Ting going Lack Where The Morning THE CAREY The S. R. O. sign is still in evidence at the Carey, figurative speaking. On next Monday, those patrons of those who failed to see Win. H.

W. M. Nunn, will appear on the cover of the leading characters in this drama of the Tropics. Also coming soon are Florence Vidor in "Lying Lips" "Black Mann in a series of great comedies, and in their latest serial entitled "Fighting Fate." THE NEW RAINBOW Patrons of the New Rainbow, at least that portion which doubled that space of vaudeville, are finding that they were in error on this point, by the grade of pictures which the management is offering at the house. In Wednesday and Thursday of next week Pauline Frederick in "The Woman in Room 13" will be exhibited. The 30th of this month Will Rogers in "Les Call Me Am" and on April 1st, and 2nd Pearl White ed. the selection of the Katherine Tigers Cup" will be offer-buy patrons.

EVERY INVESTOR IS NOW trying to decide upon the best medium for investment so that full advantage may be had of the prevailing high rate of interest. THE OPPORTUNITY to purchase high grade securities on a price basis to return 7 or 8 percent is offered in the present SALE OF STOCK OUGLASS AMUSEME ASS AMUSEME DOUGLASS AMUSEMENT CORP. E. C. BROWN, President ANDREW F. STEVENKS, Treasurer The response made by the people of Baltimore to this unusual offer indicates their faith in the accomplishment of this huge undertaking and the ultimate benefits it will bring them in the way of dividends and profits NATIONAL MUSEUM OF ART The Douglass Theatre Now under construction on Pennsylvania avenue near Lanvale street When the Half-Million Dollar Dunbark Theatre at Broad and Lonard Street, Philadelphia, opened last December, several of Baltimore's prominent citizens were present. All of them were very lavish in their praise of the beautiful theatre, and were all agreed that it was the handsomest theatre in the United States owned and controlled by colored people. And the request was made on that evening that a duplicate of the Dunbar Theatre be built in the City of Baltimore. The management at once began investigating conditions in Baltimore, and were quickly convinced that a first-class theatre in the "Monumental City" would be not only an asset to our people there, but would become a big payer from the very start, and would be a highly looking for a suitable location for the theatre, and family found what, in our opinion, is the best location for a colored theatre in the city. This site is on Pennsylvania Avenue between Lansvale Street and Lafayette Avenue. It is the desire of the company that the stock be distributed among a large number of investors, rather than be held by a few large buyers of securities, and for this reason the price of shares has been put at a price at which even the smallest investor may get in on this proposition. Colored theatres are no longer an experiment. In every city where a first-class theatre has been erected, success has attended the venture. The character of the performances which will come to the Douglass theatre will be of the same order as the attractions which have been playing in the Dunbar in Philadelphia and the Lafayette in New York with such wonderful success. Here is an opportunity for Baltimore colored people to cash in on the experience which has been gained in the operation of this now famous chain of colored theatres, which is constantly growing in number and importance throughout the country. If you are interested in the development of the race along cultural lines, here is your opportunity to do your part in bringing about this condition. Invest in the Douglass Amusement Corporation stock, and help to make the Corporation a success and a distinct asset to the race. THE SITE—of this magnificent theatre (now in course of construction) is on Pennsylvania avenue between Lanvale street and Lafayette avenue, and is the best location for a building of this kind, anywhere in the city. THE GROUND was purchased for cash—there are no mortgages or ground rent—such is our faith in the possibilities of Baltimore as a theatrical money-maker and we have already commenced the building of the theatre. THIS THEATRE will cost four hundred thousand dollars ($400,000) and will be as beautiful as the Dunbar Theatre in Philadelphia. THAT THE colored people of Baltimore may have the opportunity of having a theatre of their own, and at the same time share in the profits, we have organized the Douglass Amusement Corporation, incorporated under the laws of Maryland and Capitalized for $500,000. THE FACT that the Dumbar Theatre in Philadelphia under the same guidance has been able to pay a dividend of 8% during the first year of its operation should prove conclusively to anyone that this latest venture will pay handsome Dividends to the investor. IT SHOULD NOT be necessary to present any greater arguments in favor of purchasing this stock than the fact that the building is now being erected and the personnel of the management of the Corporation. IF YOU ARE interested in the Race to the extent of desiring a theatre or theatres where yourself or family can go freely and see the finest Broadway productions presented by capable artists, investment in the Douglass Stock will make this possible. IF YOU ARE interested most of all in putting your money in a safe, sound investment, which will pay big回降 in dividends, and constantly increase in value, then here is the safest, surest investment offered to the colored people of any city. THE RESPONSE which has come to the efforts of the Corporation thus far has been highly gratifying. Baltimore has rallied grandly to the idea of a theatre for our people and owned by our people. NOW IS THE TIME TO ACT! THIS ISSUE OF STOCK IS LIMITED Do not let tomorrow find you undecided what to do. Delay may mean another lost opportunity over which you may have many regrets.

Mr. Cary asserted that the plan was to erect a number of houses with modern conveniences, the same to be sold to colored people on easy terms. The scheme, he said, is to eliminate profiteering among landlords, a return of six per cent on the investment being all that is desired.

Everett Lane The "Y" gym last Saturday afternoon was the scene of two basketball battles between two bitter rivals High School and Bergman. The first game brought together the girls the nigh school quintet to the previous occasion having moved the Morgan young ladies 166. The first half was spirted from beginning to end, both teams playing up and took all the way. The first quarter of ten minutes duration was featured by some of the tightest guarding pitched by girls this season.

In the second quarter Morgan broke into the rowing column with a field goal by Fletcher after a half minute of goering one from the 15 foot mark. count added three points in quick order by tossing one from the foot mark and getting a pretty deceived receiver from the field. Both teams were fighting hard and deciding for dear life, but it was wearing down the Morgantown high school ladies and showing themselves a far bettered some week ago. The half closed without any further scoring. Morgan holding the lead to 1. Second Half Slow The first half apparently was too slow, allowing neither showing the dash manifested in the first two quarters. Morgan moved superior team work in the third quarter and added five points. Offut added a field goal in the final quarter and E. Johnson touched one from the foul line, with a 12 to 2 score for Morgan. The credit for Morgan's clever stance goes to Miss Daisy Bailey, who at the beginning of the season married a green squad has whipped together a combination of real strength.

BOYS STAGE GREAT TILT The football coaches of Morgan and the high school would have issued the 19 to 14 victory of the high school lads, for they would have seen two teams fight as self-defense eleven battles, and the team showed the "tenness of lighting." As son as reference "kill" Harris up the ball it was apparent the battle was for blood, the teams merging into one another with all cost of a muddled ball going the red flag. The high school lads had played a game this season as a team but had a collection of individual players of no little strength. . . . HIGH SCHOOL FIRST TO SCORE Payne, the high school's fast flick guard put one in from the mark shortly after the game. Exceptional guarding by both teams prohibited a field base for the Dilliham brake thru the school defense and put his one point in the lead by her doubled up. Long John tossed a foul after jumped two. Cooper tossed a anger from the 15-foot mark put his team on point lead. Thompson, who played a clever forward for Morgan tossed beautiful one from the field his team in the lead 4 to tossed in a foul goal for Dorsey, moving guard followed with a fierce ringer after a pretty pass, opposing the gap 7 to 3.

With gallant and game sports Morgan's lead was being pulled down. Payne tossed a foul shot. Keeley registered the first field goal. Payne followed in rapid fire order with the best shot of the game from the side of the court. Sorrell tossed a foul. Reich put his team on equal footing with the Morganites by making five successive points, three fouls and a field goal. The Collegians were swept completely off their team. The whistle blew with the score a tie, 14 to 14. In the extra five minute period, the high school team had Morgan's "goat", soon making five points, two field goals and a foul. They emerged victory from the great fray 19 to 14. It is to be regretted that fans forget their places, when an argument arises between players, such as occurred in the extra five minute period. It only irritates the matter and will not help either team. In such a close game it often proves disastrous, for the referee is at liberty to call a foul for doing such. At all times let the referee hame the game. We stand for right to have of Athletics and roundyism is a terrible harm.

ATHENIAN GIRLS READY FOR CARLYLE GIRLS Championship Battle To Be Staged In Murray's New Casino Friday Night The Athenian Girls are primed for their eastern championship battle with the Carlyle Girls this Friday night at Murray's Casino in Washington. It will be remembered the Carlyle downed the Athenian Girls but at that time the locals had only recently organized. Since then, Coaches Hubert and Simmons have whipped together a combination of real strength. The locals are in great shape for the fray. They have been practicing for this one battle and should they lose no alibi whatever can be offered. "Peeny" Brown and Pauline Wharton will start at the forward positions having played a bang-up game all season. Elizabeth Anthony will hold down the pivot position. Her dribbling and shooting being of the sensational variety. Captain Louise Parrott is one of the most clever girl guards in the city. She is a roving guard being able to come down court and getting back to her position in lightning like rapidity. Coleman, a roving guard to say the latest, no longer giving her forward the last half of the Oriole game, it is probable "Connie" Murphy may not make the trip. Sarah Snowden and Elizabeth Lee will substitute at forward and guard looking forward to a great game, respectively. Washingtonians are this being the first girls game staged in the Capitol City this season. HOWARD 36. LINCOLN 22 Washington, D. C., Mar. 14—The beautiful Murray Casino was crowded to its capacity last week when Howard basketball team downed Lincoln 26 to 22. The game started in rapid fire order when Kean snatched the ball from the air and made the first of the game. The game was from beginning to end, and was marked by shooting on heart of every man on the Howard team. Sims at center for Howard was easily the brightest star doing his full share towards piling up the score by shooting 7 field goals. The wonderful development of the Howard five was plainly evident in the team work exhibited in the clever passing of the ball. In the absence of pain beneath his injury, He handled the position of forward very well. He and Kean the two forwards for Howard, played together like twins. The Lincoln five proved no easy opponent. Clarkson and Davis, guards for Howard, were kept busy holding off Captain, the Skinner, for Lincoln, who never chance registered a basket. Wheatland at center for Lincoln was a marvel at shooting foul, registering six out of seven Referee - Henderson. Timekeepers, Allen and Randolp; Scorers, Payne and Randolp. Substitutions, G.

MOREHOUSE CLAIMS THE CHAMPIONSHIP Athletic Director Says College Has Best Basketball Team Atlanta, Ga., March 14 — The Morehouse College quintet, for five successive years the undefeated champions of the South, added to their success by maxing the colored national intercollegiate basketball championship. With the avowed intention of making a bid this year for the collegiate championship, Morehouse issued challenges to Shaw, Hampehter at home or abroad, Hampehter at home or abroad, Hampehter and Shaw accepted the challenge, while Lincoln did not answer and Howard positively sidestepped the issue by insisting that they could not find an available floor for the game in Washington, nor were they willing to make the long trip to Hawaii to attend the same time they had a signed contract with Hampton for a game in Washington on February 11. Hence, after removing all obstacles in the South, Shaw was met in Atlanta on January 29th and defeated 32 to 22. The following Saturday, after making the longest trip ever attempted by a colored college basketball team, Hampton was met in her spacious gymnasium before a large and enthusiastic crowd of spectators and defeated 22 to 19 after doing that which no other college team has accomplished this year—defeating Hampton, the acknowledged champions of the East, on their own court—Morehouse feels justified in claiming the national basketball collegiate championship. SPORT TID-BITS By E. Everett Lane Correction—It was stated in the sport column of the Afro last week, the Loendi Club defeated - Forty Club 58 to 12. The final score was 31 to 21 with Loendi on the long end. Dr. Johnson, manager of "40" Club picked an all-American basketball team last week as follows: Blutt, "40" Club F; Posey, Loendi F; Slocum Spartan "Braves" C; Young, Loendi, G; Hubbard "40" Club G.

Gerald Allen, who visited our city last Easter Monday night with the Pittsburgh Scholastic Basketball Team is a student at the University of Pittsburgh. He is for track team and is slowly rounding into form. Allen expects to wear the Gold and Blue in Penn Relays next month. Storer College will send a basketball team in our midst this Friday night. Little is known of the strength of the team, however, Morgan College should find little difficulty in decisively defeating them. The game will be staged in the "X" Gym. The Athenian Arrows will journey to Washington Thursday night to encounter the Pecolers A, C, the Indians hold a win over the locals. The Morgan College Girls did an iron man stunt last week, journeying to Washington just in time to swashbuckle to local high school girls. I It hasn't been quite understood why the Athenian Arrows and the local "X" Big Five haven't settled their basketball differences on the court. It looks like a good battle. Lets get together. The tall Miss Offutt from Morgan is a Wizard on the basketball court. She handles herself with much case. Quite an amusing sight to see tall Miss Offutt and little Miss "Edie" Johnson of the High School, fighting for the ball last Saturday. Fred Fulton has consented to fight Jack Johnson after his release from the Pen. The Johnson hecklers are busy. The clever Philadelphia.

After two minutes and twenty seconds of milling in the sixth session, Norfolk led with a light left to the jaw and followed with a terrific right to the same spot. Lewis had no further interest in the proceedings. He described an eccentric parabola and fell flat on his face in Norfolk's corner. Referee Dan Hickey counted five and Lewis tried to get up to obtain a better view of the shooting stars. He couldn't accomplish it, however, and Hickey finished his mathematics. The bout was a renewal of the rivalry between the two heavyweights, which had been interrupted at their recent appearance at Madison Square Garden by the disqualification of Lewis. The two started at each other hammer and tongs in the first round, just as they had in the Garden bout. There was no stalling any time last night, but Norfolk paved his way to victory in the second round, when he landed heavy rights to Lewis' nose and right eye. These blows took the fight out of Lewis to such an extent that it was evident the end was merely a question of time. Norfolk weighed in at 180 and Lewis at 205 1-2. MORGAN 16 WILMINGTON 9 Game Staged In Wilmington Last Friday Night Wilmington, Del., March 12.—The Morgan College Girls of Baltimore, showed complete superiority over the Howard High School girls here last night 16 to 9. The forwards of the Morganites made all the baskets. Offutt four and Bichanan three. Offutt played a great game, being able to keep uncovered and showed an accurate eye in tossing for the basket. Buchanan, her running mate, made the going hard for the home defense. Their guards, Luzey and Thomas, were ever on the local forwards. Fletcher played a cool game at center. Smith generally considered one of the best girl foul shooters in these parts, was way off, missing eight tries out of eleven. Smith and Starkey garnered a field basket apiece. The score at end of first half was 7-4 in favor of visitors. In the preliminary game, the Beaver A. C. leaders in the league, swamped Bethel 52 to 9. Howard High Morgan College Smith (Capt.)

Through an error it was stated in the Afro-American last week that Thomas Pinder, who received two years in the penitentiary, was presented with a medal. Jacksons Pinder had no counsel, while Harry Liles, alias Loveday, who was acquitted, was represent- by Mr. Jackson. Continued from Page 1. the trouble started. It was confined wholly in the Negro district, where it began, and is belied to have had it origin in a series of minor clashes that have occurred between police officers and alleged rowdy Negroes during the past few weeks. The killing of the policeman was the culmination of these smaller fights. Before the Friday night clash had continued far large crowds of whites joined the officers called to the Negro district to quell the rioting. The Negroes, regarding the invasion of the district as an effort to punish them for the results of the riots of two years ago, resisted arrests and calmly engaged the police and their allies in the sanguinary street battle which lasted through the entire night. Several attempts to dynamite homes of the Negroes were frustrated by them. One white man discovered in the act of placing a bomb near the residence of a Negro was roughly handled but was rescued by the police after a desperate battle in the course of which several combatants were severely wounded and as many more killed. The police department declare that the origin of the trouble is to be traced to an attempted rape on a young girl by a Negro several days ago. This is stoutly denied by Negro citizens of all classes who declare that the police have been assiduously seeking to create trouble in the Negro district for political reasons. Theatres, stores and public gathering places are open again after being closed several nights after 6 o'clock by the Mayor. Street cars are also running again.

Assistant State's Attorney said, in his opening statement, that the State would ask for a verdict of second degree murder, and Attorney Ephraim Jackson, who represented the woman, said that a verdict of acquital on the ground of self defense would be asked. The woman got on the stand and told a well-connected story of the events that led to the shooting, asserting that the man, who was married, had tried to force his attentions on her, threatening her life if she did not request. She also told of being forced to take a walk on the night that the shooting occurred and of Williams' attacking her on the street. She then related that Williams had pulled out his revolver in the dark after they had reached her home and threatened her, and that she fired. The bullet struck the man in the head, killing him instantly. The case was submitted to the jury without argument.

Repeat this three or four times. Then rub Dr. Fred Palmera 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.

In addition to the soap, cream and powder, Dr. Fred Palmer has prepared a hair dresser that is without equal for straightening, softening and increasing the growth of the hair.

GAINES Nothing Else Will Settle Race Problem In America Declares Minister REBUKE TO GANDY The Interracial Conference Speaker Ridiculed By Ministers' Meeting Amalgamation or intermarriage of the races is the only thing that solve the race problem. Amorde declared Rev. A. Gaines before the A. M. E. Minister's Meeting at Bethel Church Monday morning. Rev. Mr. Gaines added that history proved wherever two races occupied the same territory there was strife until their peculiarities were wiped out by intermarrying. The remarks of the minister which were delivered with some feeling are regarded in local circles as a rebuke to John M. Gandy, president of the Petersburg, Virginia Normal and Industrial Institute. Mr. Gandy in addressing the Interracial Conference held at Mt. Vernon Place Church Sunday afternoon declared that the Negro "does not want social equality and is not working for it. Neither does he want intermarriage." "Amen" from the ministers, who listened attentively while Rev. M. Galnies discussed his point made plain the inference that the Virginia educator had no authority to speak for Baltimore. Rev. George F. Bragg read a paper on the "Lesson of the Beatitudes" in which he asserted that colored people more nearly than others believed in and practiced the ideals expressed in the sermon on the mount. Rev. C. H. Steppeau called upon the Ministers' Meeting to cooperate with the Interracial Conference, and pointed out that a resolution was passed by the Conference that the white and colored ministers should exchange pulpits, and by their pauses attempt a better understanding between the races. Rev. C. E. Stewart remarked that any general exchange of pulpits would only take place "three thousand years after the millennium." HUNT WELLER Job Hunters In Washington Political Meeting Here. Governor Byrd, blew into town the other day after a visit to New York, other Northern cities and Washington, witnessing the inauguration in the last-named city. "I saw something in Washington that Old Timer did; not see the other day," he told a representative of the AFRO-AMERICAN. "What was that? asked the reporter. "A few of that famous joke committee of thirty-five trying to find Senator Welley to learn where the jobs was," he said with a chuckle. "Messrs. W. T. Andrews, A. L. Calines, Ernest Lyons and Wm. L. Fitzgerald held a meeting, in the first named's office Friday. No public statement was issued, but it was said that political jobs were under discussion. TO DECIDE FRIDAY Citizens' Committee. Will Discuss Purchase Of Old House Of Refuge Refuge A meeting of a number of local men and women is called for the Y. W. C. A. this Friday night at eight P. M. to discuss the purchase the old House of Refuge, located Carey and Baker streets. The suggestion has been made that the denominations buy the property and turn it into a home for aged people. Officer Indicted For Murder Louis Gerth, white, a federal prohibition officer, was indicted Tuesday by the Grand Jury of Baltimore County for manslaughter, charged with killing Horace Brown. Revenue agents tried to halt an automobile driven by James Butler, and in which Brown and several girls were passengers, on the Belair Road on December 27 last. Shots were fired and Brown was hit in the head. He died six weeks later at St. Joseph's Hospital. At first it was made to appear that the party were bootleggers, but all the revenue agents could find was a flask with less than half pint of whiskey, Runaway Caught Charles Johnson, 13 years old, who ran away from Cook's Orphanage in Washington on March 9th, was captured by Officer Charles Jones, white of the Central District, and turned over Friday to the Board of Children's Guardians of that city. HORSE STRUCK BY AUTO The steering gear of an automobile driven by John W. Smith, 1508 McCulloh street, became locked at the corner of Lafayette avenue and Tiffany alley Saturday, causing it to run into a horse and wagon driven by Walter Hawkins, 1109 Brewer street, fracturing the left leg of the horse. Gets Life Term John McKnight, who was con- nected of first-degree murder in the Criminal Court last week, was sentenced by Judge Duffy Tuesday to life imprisonment. McKnight killed his wife last July. MARY HAWKINS "MRS." MESOUTH THE BADMORE DAILY PATTERS SAY IT IS AGAINST THEIR POLICY TO CALL COLORED WOMEN "MRS." OR "MISS" LAW AGAINST POLITENESS Three colored women were referred to in last Sunday morning's issue of the Baltimore Sun as "Sarah Fernandis," "Kathleen Easmon" and "Cassely Hayford." The first named read a paper. Before the paper was published, a conference on "Welfare Work" and the two latter, cultured native African women made a plea for industrial education on the dark continent. In the same paragraph with the mention of the above names, The Sun adds "Mrs. Francis King Carey. Mrs. Carey is a white woman. When asked sometime ago why it refused to put the title of "Mrs. or Mrs." before the names of colored people, the editor of the Sun declared it to be against the policy of the paper to treat colored people with such courtesy and politeness. The Baltimore News referred to one of the speakers as "Mrs. Sarah Fernandis. HEARD AND SEEN By the Afro Reporter The work of erecting the new home for Faith Baptist Church, Bond street and Asland avenue, is progressing rapidly. Work on building the Douglass, Roosevelt and Booker T. Washington Theatres is going up with the springlike weather. J. H. Bishop, manufacturer of hair preparations, believes spring is already here, for he has equipped his building with new ownings. An entertainment was held at the Frederick Douglass School one evening last week. The patrons of the High School gathered there last Thursday evening to listen to talks about problems confronting their pupils. So overcrowded is the High School that classes are being held in the cellar. Teachers of the Colored High School met with teachers in the other high schools, including the junior high schools Monday to discuss questions of secondary education.

Camper was granted a verdict of $200 by a jury, which in addition ordered that the company pay his attorney, Charles W. Malin, a fee of $50. The company, which was presided by Malins and Mechen, claimed that Mrs. Camper had been insured for less than a year and as she died from a disease that the policies state only one-fourth on should the insured die within a year, only $50 was due.

THERE ARE OTHER GILPINS Charles R. Gilpin, star of the “Emperor Jones" was the hero of the Drama League Dinner given in New York last week, Hav- Ing already been selected as one of the ten actors mho had done most for dramatic art tis year, the honor and applaude to Mr. Giipin at the dinner constituted a fitting climax to the splendid recognition won by him on the stage this year. In fact Me. Gilpin, was so taten back by “the cheering of the dinner guests when he ‘was called on to speak that he almost “for- «got his lines.” ~I1is response was brief statement that he was “Aled beyond words with emotion and appreciation of the hon- or." A few hours later, Mr. Gilpin mag the guest of honor at a banquet of the Civic League, In his after dinner adaress, he de- clared that he had achieved nothing very ‘extraordinayy. He referred to the late Ira Aldridge, the colored actor, wha could not get a chance in the white theatres in this ebuntty, but who went abroad and became the most tatked of Shakespearean actor in Europe. Mr, Gilpin also spoke of the many years he had spent in aempts to make a success of his chosen voention, and how he was titned down by manager After man- ager, meantime earning @ jiving as a pull- man porter. ‘While Mr. Gilpin’s success is undoubtedly a tribMte to his grit and persistence to sur- mount the difficulties imposed upon him by his xace, his narrative also reminds us that many men are dolig the menial tasks to- aay becuse their way to advancement is blocked by their color —tike Gray's flower the yare “horn to biush ungean and waste their sweetness on tho desert alr.” A FAREWELL Mista Wintah oid yo! bhustah, ‘An yo" iee an’ sows ‘Time done come fo! yo" to Tehe us Gina you's ot to Ko.

Z —KENNATRD WILLIAMS WHAT ISA CHILDREN’S TUBERCULOSIS PREVENTORIUM A Children's Tahereutosis Preventorlum ts, first of all, an “ideal temporary home" for children who ave especially susceptible, or have been exposed to. tuberculosis, ‘but who have not as yet contracted the disease in active form. As the name “prevento- rinm” implies, it’s aim is to prevent tuber= eulosis, in this ease, in colored children. We belleve that! prevention {6 better than eure—it is more humane—it is more economie—it is more sensible, Tf a, child is below par physleally. if there is tuberen- Tosi in the homo,it it has been slow in re- ‘covering from somo other diseake, 4 It fms not the vitality and strength which the normal child should have for its age, the chanees ave that preventorium treatment would be of great benefit to It «* * A preventortum is not a placo where the child is (reated by medicine, though ocen- sionally’ a little may be necessary for some ‘ailment, but it is a place which offers the child certain advantages which their home should offer, but unfortunately cannot. Tt ofvers the child a healthy out-door tite, plenty of sunshine, fresh air, pure water, nourishing wholesome food. "It provides plenty of amusement such as the child loves, yet It docs not allow any form of exercise qwhich might be injurions to the ehild in tts weakened condition, It combines suitable supervised play recreation, nerlods of Felax- ation and ‘rest, Tt teaches the child good health habits and cultivates the eloments'of good character. In other words, it is a big hhome with a most desirable home atmos phere and the elimination of that which is Undesirable to the child’s best interest. ‘There is no place at present where we may send colored children needing this type of care, +4 # It is generally recognized that tubercu- losis, commonly known as consumption, which is shnply nother name fo: tubereu- osis of the Tungs, causes about three times as many deaths among the colored popula tion, per thousand of population, as ft does among our white population. It is not gen- - erally recognized, and has not begun to be ‘Appreciated that the cause of this great aif- ference in the white and colored tubereu- losis death, rate 1s due to the fact that tuberculosis In children up to about ten years of age causes about nino times the fatality among colored children, proportion ately, as it does among white children. oo This great prevalence of tuberculosis among colored children certainly points to the necessity of our doing something very “aefinite and praétical for these children. A preventorim, such as we are proposing to help you establish, would fulfll @ great and vital need, unprovided for at present. It has been demonstrated that it would build up and make strong these children in the sshortest possible time,. thus. preventing un- necessary suffering and hardship. , It would do this with the least economle cost, and, therefore, give us the greatest returns for our investment. =. oe THE.

In the Year of our Lord 2256, Negroes of the United States competed so hotly with the whites for the business of the country that mutual segregation was agreed to and the colored people were given a state in the South for themselves. Here they built up a strong government which after a military war powerful enough to defeat the United States in open warfare. Victory came to the black soldiers from the use of the new invention of arithmetic which used centrifugal force and required no explosive. As a result of the conflict the black people, former American Negroes demanded that-the United States pay the transportation back to Africa, and 1,000 vessels were used for this purpose. In Africa, the former black Americans, set up a government, which is nevertheless the most peace- loving and orderly, powerful in the world. though in ordinary travel over land, it may usually be neglected to some extent, or at least seldom required, excepting in storms and then we generally descend wherever we happen to be, out over the ocean, as we are, it become a matter of vast importance and requires constant watchfulness, that is the chief reason why I travel so swiftly. I shall have to remain awake until we reach our destination, which means about a day and a half, including two nights. And eat my age, he added, "I like to have my regular sleep." "So I should think! How smoothly we are running! And with so little noise. But, traveling at the rate we are going, are you not afraid of heated bearings? I should think there would be danger of that." "Our mechanical work is so perfectly fitted that friction is brought down to a minimum, and, besides, the bearings are constructed of an alloy which renders them almost frictionless. There there are special arrangements by which the little heat that may be developed is rapidly dissipated and we are never troubled in that way. As to the noise, the construction of the machine does away with that almost completely. The aircrafts you remember among your people were not properly put together, and were not really flying machines, but box kits, pushed by a motor instead of pulled by a string. There were so many wires and ribs and balanced parts that the strain, while they were in operation, would be a terrible rattling and latter, while the only noise produced by this machine, only noise have been, the slight whistle due to the passage of air through the propeller, and the rushing or whistling produced by the air ahead as it cleft by our prow or frontal shield." We were still rushing along the same level toward the northwest. Beneath was the gray, nearing ocean and above the clear sky, brilliant with stucco walls. We had seen a vessel since we started, and now the sun had set long ago and darkness had settled down. I was weared by all I had gone through during this event day, the moment of the death of the ship was soothing in its effect. I was warm and comfortable in an easy and luxurious cushioned seat, free from all worry and anxiety, and began to feel drowsy in the exertion. "Go to sleep. There is no reason why you should remain awake," was the last thing I heard, and then came oblivion. When I awoke, the sun was up and the sunrise on us, and the sky, was cloudless. We were in for another beautiful day. I greeted my companion with a cheerful Good morning," he said, his face turned in his face or manner not the slightest indication that he had passed a sleepless night. We were still heading in the same direction, and we were alone with nothing in sight but ocean and sky. We breakfasted together upon the simple vlands he had provided, with a draught of wine for myself and some water. "Whereabouts do you suppose we are?" I asked, at length. "I do not known exactly. We are nearly half way to our destination." "Do you take no observations?" I asked. I had already seen that he was not prepared for that. "No," he replied, "you would be useless. I determined my destination, travel in a bee, line. When we are nearing the line of travel for other vessels, all small sight, and we shall be on our own sight," we will be location from above. to no interference from others." "surely," I said, "I shall be only too eager to tell about all that I have learned, but I am afraid, after what you have been telling me, that I shall be muck out of place among these moderns, and understand their language. "You will have no trouble on that score," was the reply; "your people have attained on the press that the position you lett them in. You will find, of course, none of your former friends. They were long since dust, the material surpassed by the new years ago, about a century, in tact, a great wave of enthusiasm swept over North America in regard to their ancestral issues, as they were brought about a great revival of the language of their fathers. so when you and, you will find them speaking and accustomed, with only slight variations of wors and pronunciation, quite insufficient to cause you any difficulty in conversation, think you are a foreigner from South American, who has learned English from a book, but you will get on well enough. "And now," he continued, "let me warn you what you are going to find in your old home. There have been some changes in the landscape. You will find the East river somewhat wider and the Hudson somewhat narrower than you have known them, and the river has sunk a little, and the collars and lower stories of many buildings have been abandoned. Staten Island is considerably smaller, and the entire coast of Jersey has varied in distance from the varying distances back from the old line as you knew it. Coney Island is beneath the waves. You will not see many other chains of roaring city, with its electric lines of communication underground and above ground. Their old acropaeans have not been brought out to roaring city. They are looked upon, I believe, as tending in the wrong direction, and as having been a sort of toy. Your inventors are building the air, but along entirely different lines, I am told, and with fair prospects of success. "But more important matters remain. You will find your countrymen still grooming and sweating and smiling and quarrelling and quarrelling and not so very different from the one you had been living under. Every man, woman and child you will tend constantly, objecting to and-resisting 'the imposition of the law' over they speak of us at all they call us the 'nigger unarchists', and yet they themselves are all archists at heart. There is not one who is sentencing the restraint put upon his activities by the law of the land. The meanest criminal can always justify himself for what he has done, and he will not be at the time of the action appears to him the best. And there is no person among you, who in the performance of any action, is sentencing the restraint put upon his person, no your own. And the richer and more powerful a man may be, the more keenly he feels that the laws do not apply to him. And in all this weiter of law and violations of law, none of you see that the law itself produces the violent acts, that your crimes and misdemeanors are by the very means that have been devised to suppress or prevent them. A man is but a grown-up boy, and there is no sureer way to to put up a trespass sign in the orchard. Stolen waters will always be sweet and bread eaten in secret, pleasant. *** "Tell your countrymen from me that law creates the mulefactor, the repression of rebelry, the mule who is the masters of their own lives, that no man, as the great Lincoln said, is good enough to govern the world; that freedom is the watchword of humanity; that the love of money is the root of all evil; that greed produces misery; that the law is the decree that charity from rich to poor is another name for injustice; that the earth can produce a plenty for all; that none should be poor; and that every accumulation of property is the result of conscious of unconscious theft, no matter how the law is applied, euphonious titles of foresight shrewdness or thrift. "And then tell them what you have seen among the nigger anarchists, and immense community of persons, living, poor, unhappy, unknown, working and playing and visiting when and as they wish, with every individual following his own inclination toward his own money, law, no courts, no police, no army, no crime, no rich, no poor, living amicably together as neighbors, tolerant of one another's opinions, sympathetic in case of injury, or death, with comfortable dwellings and magnificent public buildings, selfish citizens, with plenty, to eat and drink, with shelter, clothing and wristmuffs to all, with insecurities with each other, and so you well know from your personal observation before you deliver this message, with impregnable means of defense against all foreign aggrandement." And then tell them the nigger anarchists are willing to share these blessings with them. late the rest of the world in accordance with their own ideas, if they will make up their minds to their own affairs, and specially to their own affairs, and specially to abandon forever all attempts to interfere with my people, we are willing to impart our special knowledge to them the extraordinary facilities now possessed by ourselves alone, and that we will give them, not standing the risk of our own misuse, the advice and assistance that we are able to render, to guide them to as nappy and contenuer an existence as we lead ourselves, so that there is no misery, no more poverty, and no more mistrust among them, but that their entire people may pass their lives in perfect harmony with their own world, and when their time comes, may go with a clear conscience to meet the God." For a few minutes after this solemn appeal, I remained silent. I hardly knew what to reply, but at length I ventured to say: "I will deliver your message to my countrymen, but am afraid it will fall on deaf ears." I am amused at the amount of that, he said, "but I have done my duty in the matter, and have done my it so." \* \* \* "But, tell me, is not the life you describe and the life your people lead in Africa rather a bare and joyless one? Is it not of a somewhat bovine character, like the placid existence of the knot on the green sword in the chew in a sort of stupid词语?" . . . "How can you make such a comparison as that, after what you have seen?" Was there anything bovine or stupid in the librarian with whom you spared him? Did the various persons you saw bussed with their occupations seem to you to be dull and without animation? Did you see no evidence of alert and skillful activity in the day you spent there, or did you cannot have missed entirely the I intended to give you." --- "That is not my meaning, exactly. I should have said that it appeared to me that the life you have described might be extremely monotonous and uninteresting. Variety is the spice of life, and you have nothing, so far as I know, of the fullness of life where there is no competition, no rivalry, nothing to spur one to extraordinary effort—" * * * "No chance to quarrel, to look up to heights beyond your reach, or down upon telltown below you, who are striving to raise opportunity for marraquin expeditions, no one to conquer and win a glorious renown by putting your heel on his neck," and he would have continued his bitter wit. I had not interrupted him, with: --- "No, no. I simply meant to say that such a life as you have no distractions, no way of passing time agreeably when work is over, "Oh," he said, with a smile, "I will confess that I misunderstood. We have distractions enough, fully as many as you have. We have good theaters, the young people have their outdoor games, some of which you witnessed and their balls and parties, and we have even better theaters, than you have ever heard. I presume you are not aware that the Negro race is the only really musical race that ever existed." "Nonsense," I exclaimed, "how preposterous!" "Nevertheless it is a fact. The Negro race, the portion you knew, had never been civilized, but at one time, when all Eritrea was occupied by the people occupying the interior of Africa were in a state of high civilization. The Egyptians received the first impulse from Ethiopia. The Egyptians, themselves, the Negro race, not by conquest, but by migration, penetrated far into Asia and Europe, where the traces of their former presence can still be seen. The curly hair and flattened nose of numerous families in southern Europe, and from that source wherever their blood has mingled with that of the Eritreans, are indicable evidences of the far-reaching effects of this Negro migration is to be numbered the musical ability of the Europeans which have lived over the whole continent, is more concentrated in the southeast and more diluted and more sporadic in its manifestations with the Negro race, is the only innately musical race, as a race, that the world has seen, and even to this day, when, the influence of their genius in the Negro is the only man that can beat perfect time." "Well, I must say, that is rather an extraordinary statement," I said, "considering that so many of the great musical composers in Europe have had straight hair." "Very few, and those not the greatest," was the reply, "and although the curling hair had been bred out of them, the musical taint had not an ancestral qualities longer than the other bodily organs." This gave me something more to think about, and I changed into a speedlike an arrow, showing a career hour and I began to feel asatisfied, my匀量ality and complete sense of security while rushing through space such as a mine, with whom I had not known for a little more than a day.

The Bewitching Charm of a bright, smooth skin. Beauty's best mirror is an admiring eye. A woman may be ever so handsomely dressed, her features perfect, but if her face, neck, arms or hands are spotted by pimples, ringworms, black-heads, or are dark and rough, she will not be attractive nor can she hope to be successful socially or otherwise. This creamy skin bleach will not harm the most delicate skin. It is to be applied at night and washed off the next morning. Black and White Ointment is as delightful to use as the many face creams and lotions. Black and White Soap should always be used with Black and White Ointment. It helps remove pimples, blemishes, and keeps the skin soft and smooth. You wash the face, hands, neck and arms with warm water and Black and White Soap. Rub the skin with the skin and rinse thoroughly with Thon mix and apply Black and White Ointment according to the directions given with each package. Repeat this beauty treatment for 2 weeks. The skin will disappear and the skin will shades lighter and have a soft texture. Plough Chemical Co. MEADHIS, TENN. U.S.A.
