PUBLIC HEALTH SERVICE BACKS HEALTH WEEK HARDING URGED TO INVESTIGATE GEORGIA KILLING 450,000 ILL LAST Their Expense To Country John W Amounts Yearly To Over Eleven Half Million Dollars John Williams, White, Had Eleven Killed To Prevent His Exposure Washington, D. C., March 31.—In telegrams to President Harding and Attorney General Dougherty, the full force of the department of Justice is being asked for to uncover the terrible system of peonage now operating in many Southern states. According to the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People the Georgia case in which John Williams, white, murdered eleven colored men fearing they would expose the fact that he held them in slavery, is not an isolated case. In asking the new administration to investigate the matter, it calls attention to the lynching of Henry Lowery and the Arkansas riots last year which were due solely to the present system of debt slavery so prevalent throughout the Mississippi Delta region.

Confer A Countrywide Program Against Sickness Planned April 3rd To 9th Washington, D. C., March 31.—Special—Because of the fact that 450,000 colored people are sick all the time in the South from preventable diseases, the United Public Health Service in a bulletin prepared by Dr. R. C. Brown and issued this week is backing the Tuskegee Conference and the National Business League in promoting a National Negro Health Week April 3rd to 9th. According to the bulletin, sickness among colored costs the South $75,000,000. 225,000 people die annually, and the expense of these deaths is $25,000,000. The annual loss from earnings is said to be $300,000,000 and the total loss from preventable illness is over a half billion dollars. To prevent sickness, the Public Health Bureau is asking that during the week schools, churches, and organizations lay emphasis on fighting constipation, especially in children; clean drinking water in rural districts; ridding homes of flies; keeping homes clean and burning up all trash; guarding against mosquitos, which carry malaria fever; urging expectant mothers to consult physicians frequently; avoiding patent medicines and quack doctors; making constant war on rats; ventilation of sleeping rooms and elimination of overcrowding; frank public talks of veneral disease and how to prevent it; care of the teeth and discussion of means to prevent tuberculosis. Copies of the Health Week Program showing how the death rate of colored people had declined nearly three percent from 1919 to 1916 are available for free distribution.

Monticello. Ga., March 30.—Because he feared prosecution by the federal agents for keeping colored men in slavery, and forebly working them without pay, John Williams, a white farmer, has been indicted by a jury here for killing eleven colored men. Bodies of eleven murdered men have been recovered, five from various places on the farm and six from the Alcoy river. Knowledge that Williams was conducting a slave farm leaked out and drew the attention of the Department of Justice early in March. Appearance of the agents made Williams suspicious and he determined to do away with the men he was working under armed guard during the day and keeping behind bars at night. One of the men were sent to the pasture to dig a post hole and when it was deep enough, was killed and buried there. Another was put to digging a well and "knocked on the head and buried THOUSANDS IN ATLANTIC CITY FOR SUNDAY THOUSANDS IN ATLANTIC CITY FOR SUNDAY Baltimoreans Among Those Seen Walking On Boardwalk Or Riding In Wheel Chairs HOTELS GOING UP At Least Three May Be Ready For Tourists By Early Summer Stan Correspondence Atlantic City, N. J., March 28.—With just enough breeze to make it a day of joy and enough warmth in the sunshine to make wraps unnecessary. Atlantic City never saw so rare an Easter as yesterday. Everybody was here from Aunt Betsy and Uncle Simon to the tiniest kids. They came in singles, doubles, groups and crowds, and they all mixed without any that of "who's who." Some were handsome, some medium, some ordinary, but not one single ugly person in the great crowd of 200,000. For each had a smile on his face, that betokened peace with all mankind. Police yawned and seemed bored because they had nothing to do, but look on. Any number of colored persons were noted in the throngs, as gaily and stylishly dressed as any. Striking effects in short skirts and stockings were seen now and then but the major portion were moderately but attractively garbed. Now and again occupants of some of the wheel chairs were seen to be colored. Not only did colored people mingle in the crowds, but they got into the photographs and movies with everybody else. Towards evening, excursion trains carried away a tired but happy lot of excursionists. Among those noticed on the Board-walk were Dr. and Mrs. Dan C. Brown and daughter, Mrs. R. M. Hall, Lawyer Wm. C. McCard, wife and niece, Mr. and Mrs. Samuel W. Hayward, Mrs. George Frey, Mr. and Mrs. Alexander Teras Waller, Miss Esther Fowler, Mr. Bernard Taylor, Mr. J. H.

A FIERY PRAYER Associated Negro Press Red Rock, Miss. March 31. —A local preacher started his auditors last Sunday morning with the following somewhat remarkable prayer: “Oh Lawd, give Thy servant this morlh 'de eye of de eagle and de wisdom of de owl; connect his soul with de gospel telephone in de central skies; luminate his brow with de sum of heaben; plzen his mind with love for the people; turpentine his imagination; grease his lips with 'possum oil; loosen his tongue with de sledge hammer of Thy power; 'electify his brain with de lightin' of de word; put 'petual motion in his arms; fill him plum full of the dynamite of Thy glory; 'moint him all over with de kerosene oil of Thy salvation, and sot him on fire. —Amen!” HARDING TO OPEN CONGRESS ON APRIL 11th President May Take Occasion To Say Word Against Lynching In Special Message TAFT IGNORED Slate Of Southern Appointments Contains Names Of Several Colored Men Associated Negro Press Washington, D. C., March 31.—That President Harding may mention the need of legislation against lynching and that he intends to ignore the advice of ex-president Taft and will appoint colored men to federal offices in the South is the information that has set political circles buzzing this week. President Harding, in his special message to Congress! may take occasion to make special reference to the national crime of lynching, as part of the Republican platform adopted in Chicago. This is the opinion of many in close touch with the trend of events. It is known that there is a very decided sentiment in Congress against lynching, and while it is definitely known that more than one measure will be immediately presented CONTINUED ON PAGE FIVE DEAD MAN" The Far South PHITMARK nigger dangling from a tree e trail.

"The time has long since passed when there should be any discrimination or repression toward our colored citizens. They are entitled to their rights as citizens under the constitution. They are free men under the constitution, and I believe they are entitled to full commercial and political freedom of action, especially in regard to public accommodation and utilities." Harrisburg, Pa.—Representative Asbury, Philadelphia, sponsor of the bill, opened the discussion of the measure, telling of the need for such a law on the statute books of Pennsylvania. The Pennsylvania bill is identical with the New York law, he said. The Philadelphia member told of actions of theatrical men who refused to sell seats to Negroes who asked for ground floor seats and of soda water clerks who refused to wait on colored people. He quoted James Gay Gordon, Philadelphia, and Senator Penrose as favoring the passage of the measure. Representative Phillips, white, Clearfield, said there are but two questions raised by the bill, a moral and legal question. He quoted the constitution as giving equal rights to all citizens and the Bible to prove the moral right of equality. Representative Stevens, Philadelphia, made a strong plea for the bill. Representative Walker, white Philadelphia, said to enact the legislation would be to carry out the spirit of the constitution of the United States. York, Pa., March 31.—William F. Mills and Louise Deardorf, white, who were refused a license to wot by Clerk of the Court Purd R. Smith, wout to Harrisburg and were married. Smith declared last week he did not believe in colored and white marrying and so withheld the license. There is no law preventing intermarriage in the state. In August 24th last the couple were before the court on the charge of living together without marriage, and were acquitted on the technicality that the woman was conducting a boarding house, and Mills was the boarder. She was then fined for conducting a boarding house without a license.

MANY ATER RECORDSHIP Washington Times The Recorder of Deeds is a place that is being sought by many Washingtonians of the Republican faith. The office is not a term one and the incumbent can be removed by the Presidency $1,900 a year and carries with it the appointment of about forty-five employees of the office of the Recorder of Deeds. It has usually been the custom, however, for the new recorder not to disturb the office force with the private secretary. Next in line is the office of United States Marshal for the District of Columbia. This office pays $6.00 a car and is a term one. The term of the incumbent, Maurice Slaton, white expires in the 1920s.

Key, Dr. Brange said: "The black man has lost an ever devoted and unshaken friend. His was a difficult situation, but he always rang true. At a time when JAMES CARDINAL GIBBONS "Jim Crow" threatened us and our people were anxious and distressed without the least hesitancy the cardinal wrote me as follows: In reply to your letter of yesterday, I listen to say that the introduction of the Jim Crow Bill into the Maryland Legislature is very distressing tone. Such a massive must of necessity engages very bitter feelings in the college people against the whites. Peace and harmony can never exist where there is unjust discrimination and what the members of every community must constantly grow for is power. Especially now in the hour of our affliction, while calamity and disaster are frowning upon our city, mutual helplessness should be the common endeavor, and no action should be lightly taken, when should precipitate eminent strife and narcissistic feelings. Against "fim Crow" The aim of every man is to protect the gardens that fall heavily on the neighbor, to the fall extent of the power. It is equally the duty of every member of a community to avoid any action which is calculated to make hard and bitter the lot of a less fortunate race. Furthermore, it would be most suspicious to make the whole race superior for the delinquencies of a few individuals to visit upon thousands who are innocent that punishment which should be meted out to the guilty." "Possibly the real heroism of Cardinal Gibbons, in connection with the work among the Negroes, will never be fully known and appreciated." Of course, there was more "racial-feeling" in the Roman Catholic Church. It could not have been otherwise when one remember the many nationalities comprehended therein. Cardinal Gibbons was the very first of the American Bishops of his church who wholeheartedly came out in favor of a Negro priesthood, and gave the entire weight of his influence only on the church. The extension of schools, priesthoods and other native institutions among the colored people. The difficulties, or at least some of them, which the Cardinal Samuel in carrying out his wish will can be imagined when one thinks that altogether only about the six colored men have thus been elevated to the priesthood, and three of that number are directly at the hands of the Cardinal himself. The Cardinal A Democrat "Cardinal Gibbons was truly "treaty and lowly." Upon several occasions while talking his accustomed walks, unattended, we voluntarily joined him, and for a considerable distance journeyed together, conversing about the work of the priests or the poor of the individual man. It is doubtful whether in this whole world another can be found, occupying such an exalted place, as easy of approach, and thoroughly democratic in manners as was our late Cardinal, who loved all the people of Baltimore, both black and white. And they loved him in return. By three colored priests, made by Charles H. Ursules, Father Charles H. Ursules, 1882; Father J. H. Dorsey, 1902 and the late Father J. H. Plantagine, 1906.

Fredrick Douglas on the rostrum directing the light, nearly all of the old board of trustees of Bethlehem, A. M. E. Church were outstretched office last Monday night. There were about 200 voting members on hand to witness the election. Rev. Douglas had set aside the last election of trustees hold by Rev. W. Sampion Brooks as illegal.

St. ANNOUNCEMENT EXTRAORDINARY!! by judging from the grade of pictures the management is showing The Carey management wishes to call again to the attention of its patrons the great 7-reel spectacular production which will be shown at this house on Monday, April 4th, entitled: "Madonnas and Men." This picture reaches back into the days of the Roman Empire and links up some of the stirring happenings of those gilded days, with events of the present day. They likewise desire to call attention to the production of Monday, April 11th, entitled: "The Island of Regeneration," featuring Antonio Moreno and Edith Story. This picture is a kind of modern Robinson Crusoe story showing how a baby grows up practically wild on a desert island and later finds his way into the very highest walks of civilization. On the same day that this latter moving picture will be shown, Harold Lloyd will appear in a two reel comedy entitled: "Number, Please!" On Tuesday, April 5th, series of 5 western thrillers featuring Lester Cuneo will begin. The title of this series is "Lone Hand Wilson." No, dear reader, notwithstanding the title; this picture has nothing to do with the arrogant gentleman who lately tried the "lone hand game" stunt in our peace negotiations.

READY The Rainbow management who has first choice of National Pictures in their zone, are bringing to Baltimore for the delectation of Rainbow patronage, some of the greatest pictures turned out. Standing-room was the order at all times on Easter Monday to witness "The Penalty." On Tuesday, April 5th, William S. Ilgrt will appear in one of his latest and greatest westerns. Special attention is called to the great feature picture to be shown on April 6th and 7th, headed by the grant Elmo Lincoln, supported by Noble Johnson the colored leading support of such stars as screen star who has been seen in Eddie Polo; Marie Waleamp; and also played a leading role in the great Griffith spectacle "Intolerance." THE DUNBAR The Dunbar is keeping pace with the unknown picture houses. On last Tuesday—the great Mar- ture day of each week—Dead Tell 'Em 'O' Cales" steered the house parked from the opening to the hissing hour. In fact every day is getting to be feature day at the Dunbar late THE CAREY analogue more applicable than in contrasting the show of last week and the one which Billy King and his incomparable company are this week serving the patrons of the New Regent Theatre. Last week they served the entree and the first course, this week they have set before their guests the remaining courses; and oh boy! it is some "spread." Not since the palmy days of Williams and Winker; Ernest Hogan and Cole and Johnson, has such a completely satisfying colored show been seen in these parts. And those of us who remember those good old days, may be pardoned for following memory's trail back along the way through again those hours of pure delight. First the reminiscence is stirred by the delightful comedy of Billy King, not the slain-bang, car-splitting boisterous kind of the present day, but real humor born of the quiet methods of a muster comedian, a comedian who can stand on one spot for minutes at a time, and keep his audience rocking with laughter merely by a turn of the head. Next, in this connection, is the singing of the principals and chorus. Mr. King a contemporary performer with this group, we named seemingly has been guided by the standard they set for he has selected the most accomplished group of singers, both as to principals and chorus, since those bygone days. In addition to Madam Erue, who is such a delightful prima donna, Madam Margaret Scott is in the cast this week, and she created a tumult of enthusiastic acclaim by her rendition of a class BO ATRE GREAT PICTURES 2115-1 GREATEST PICTURE THE BIG HOUSES S SATURDAY—First National Pictures Corp. Presents:— LON CHANEY, LEWIS STONE BETTY BLYTHE and a big cast in "Nomads of the North" Mountain lions, wolves, bear wild cats—all the wild beast of the wilds flee before the great forest fire in "NOMAD OF THE NORTH."—and what a story! Picture it. Iaquah Challenger with his wife, Nantette and her baby lost to the world in their little cabin in God's great wilderness—happy in their hiding place free from law's injustice, in their black bear and a wolf dog. Then comes O'Connor of the Northwest Mounted to take them back, and as man and wife and child, bear and dog, start down on the trail to the caves to the caves their whole wild world bursts into flame. A forest fire so real it staggers you. A battle through so fierce that it awes you. And a finish so fine that you'll cheer it. A real treat that you will enjoy all the way through.

And speaking of the female part of the cast, an additional word must be said of "Dinks" Thomas who causes ripple after ripple of laughter by her antics as a mem- ber of the chorus. And not only is she funny, but she is the very poetry of motion. Surely, if "Jazz" has a soul, it is harbored in the slender brown body of "Dinks" Thomas. Marshall Rodgers and Kid Bumpsky are still ably supporting Billy King in the major comedy line. Kid Bumpsky also won additional appreciation by some very exceptional buck-dancing. Then there is that "Sons of Ham" quartette; but when it comes to harmony, there is nothing of the "ham" about these boys. The offering this week is entitled "The New American" and opens with James Stevens, who impersonating Henry Lincoln Johnson, National Committeeman of Georgetown for quality of citizenship for the Nero. duction and comparison on a say, that they closely approach a Ziefeld Follies in their lavishness, especially georgeous were to song-number settings, a black and white effect for the Yama-Yama number; the chorus wearing pajama-like costumes to match, and the other "rose curtain" with the heads of the chorus girls as to ears of the roses. Miss Blanche Walton, the musical directress, seems to have professor "like Thomas' boys completely under a hypnotic spell judging from the way they respond to every wave of her graceful hands.

McLaurin heads the fun-making department, assisted by Roscoe and Williams. The chorus, has a plentiful supply of "pep" left over from last week, as well as a few more wrinkles which they are endeavoring to shake out of the "shimmy." Miss Edmonia Henderson is scoring also with a "blues" number, and her mark in a "blues" score is well up among the top-notchers. An additional attraction this week is the vaudeville duo well-known as "Eutter Beans" and Susie.

ISSUES CHALLENGE TO KU KLUX KLAN Asks Imperial Wizard To Make Public How It Spends Funds Collected The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, To Fifth Avenue, New York, today issued a statement challenging W. J. Simmons, head of the Ku Klux Klan to make a financial statement of the receipts and expenditures to his organization in view of the "conflicting reports" about the sources of the income and the uses to which the funds received were the head of the Ku Klux Klan, sheers the un-American title *Superior Wizard*, has dignified *National Association* for the enhancement of Colored People by calling it the chief opponent of the Ku Klux Klan. "Apparently the opposition extends even beyond the methods of the own organizational. There is not only secret about the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. It publishes a full and complete financial statement each year of funds received and expenditures. It is certified by public accountants. The books and files of this Association are at all times open to in- "We should like to know, in view of the reports published yesterday that Governor Dorssey of Georgia had been asked to suppress the Ku Klux Klan because of its alleged unlawful activities, with the Ku Klux Klan will challenge the challenge to publish its financial receipts and expenditures with certification by public accountants. "The American people, this is knowing whether the Ku Klux Klan funds are expended in blow-up and burning Negro school classes as a published letter charged one Klan planned to do. To date record of the source in use of the Ku Klux Klan funds is lacking. The only way to meet the issue is by a public statement certified. Will the imperial guard meet the challenge?" "THE LIVING DEAD MAN" "All I want is the first crack at him," yelled county Sheriff Hickens, the mob leader. "After that you fellows can have what's left. I ain't missed a nigger yet." "Come on, Simpson," called a voice to mite mob to Joe Simpson, a proper, whose store was near the colored settlement. Simpson, a man of about forty years, was seen instinctively to reach for his gun, snatch up a piece of rope, hastily lock the door of his store, and run to join the inmates before he saw Simpson be taken to a colored customer of his how much he thought of the colored people. "That's up?"—he queried as he caught up with the tail end of the man, which had now swelled to six hundred. "We're going to git the nigger," once one informed him. "What nigger?"—he rejoined. "What difference does that take? Any nigger will do when a white man is killed," came the reply. "Who is he? What's his name?" "Inspired Simpson." shops. "You're d——particular, in Tyson's his mame. He killed a white man on a street car and we mean to get 'im." "By golf. He's one of my best customers, but that makes no difference now." The trail led around the colored settlement, across a field and into the big road leading from Crackenville, Georgia. The hounds, keen to the scent, quickened their pace until they came to the city limit at the railroad crossing. Here they came to an abrupt stop and commenced scurrying around all directions in search of the last trail. Fearing that Tyson had framed town, the spirit of the mob adopted a shaded hammer blow. "Better go up in the watchman's tower and telephone up and down the line to be on the lookout for him," said Simpson; and Sheriff Hicks, taking the suggestion, climbed up the ladder leading to watchman's tower to telephone Hillsburg, Watertown and Smithville to keep an eye out for Tyson. Meanwhile, one of the hounds came long howl. Evidently, he had again picked up the scent. "Come on, Hicks! They've got it again," said Simpson. Sheriff Hicks who had told the watchman to phone all nearby towns and villages to guard the roads and railroads leading from Crackersville. Crossing the tracks, the blood-bounds led the hungry cannibals through the swamp to the left of the road. The night was cold and clear, enabling the mob to see in all directions. The moon shown brightly under Tyson's escape practice impossible. Less than a hour had clapped since the second Tyson was supposed to be seen catching low over a tree in an effort to hide himself. Simpson, the grocer, eagerly moved the rope from his shoulder so as to have it in readiness. Suddenly the hounds ran through a clump of trees, and once on the other side found themselves on the river bank. In vain did they try to pick up the trail again, running round and round on the bank. Fresh footprints did clearly be seen leading into the murky water. drew cold midnight air and the even of the long hike back to mother, chilled the ardor of the Disappointment could be seen on every face, as the light trees. Deathlike silence fell upon the moon came through the them. At the length, Sheriff Hicks wrote. "Well boys," he said, "the river's died us. Most likely the scour- n tried to swim the river. We'll down tomorrow morning and for his body." So gently, with drooping spirits, the mob began the long march town.

The Honorable William Howard Taft should now be paged, and with him the ancient and dishonorable fraternity of "Lily Whites." For the word has gone out from the last place where words can go out, and that is from the President himself, that he will make no appointments where factional troubles have not been agreed upon and settled before the applicants for office finally reach him, and that if said troubles are not settled, there will be no appointments. The result of this decision has been a mighty hurrying of white Republicans of the South to find the location and whereabouts of colored Republicans and make both peace and satisfactory terms with the aforesaid colored Republicans, and to have them make the claim that all the sensational talk about driving the black brother out of politics is mere bosh, pliff and the stuff that dreams are made of. Therefore, the Honorable Walter L. Cohen, of Louisiana; the Honorable Henry Lincoln Johnson, of Gorgia; the Honorable Perry W. Howard, of Mississippi; and the Honorable Robert R. Church, of Memphis, Tennessee, are being seriously and honest-to-God-ly reckoned with in the distribution of patronage in their respective states. Negotiations have been under way for several days with white leaders in the effort to smooth out the differences, and to amicably distribute federal patronage in a manner that will be satisfactory to all, especially the President. The Associated Negro Press can state with authority that final agreements in the list of Southern appointments include the names of several colored applicants for various positions. Chas. A. Cottrell is still mentioned for the Register of the Treasury, an office which now has 1500 employees. Jas. A. Cobb, of Washington, and Perry Howard of Mississippi, are in line for Assistant U. S. District Attorney. A delegation consisting of Emmett J. Scott, W. H. Lewis and Jas. A. Cobb to urge Mr. Cobbs candidacy. Visitors here during the past week were, Dr. I. Garland Peun, of Cincinnati.

Bunday, secretary of the American Legation at Monrovia, Liberia, is on his way here to press his claims for the job as minister to Liberia. Major York, world tourist, is also a candidate.

NINE YEAR OLD BOY SENTENCED TO CHELTENHAM Frank Onley Who Escaped From Many Homes Is Safely Housed At Last FOUND THRU AFRO Sister Of St. Elizabeth's Recognizes Name Of Runaway Held At Station House 23 Nine-year-old Frank Onley is an elusive chap, but he is safe now in the Colored House of Reformation at Cheltenham, Judge Williams, of the Juvenile Court, having sentenced him to that institution on Tuesday. The little fellow, who is described as a "bud boy with a wanderlust," was taken from St. Elizabeth Home and adopted by Mr. and Mrs. William Davenport, five months ago. He was given a good home with two other children adopted by the Davenport and sent to School 109. Freemont avenue and King street. He played truant and cut up other didoes and Mrs. Davenport sent him back to St. Elizabeth's Home several weeks ago. He was left in the office of one of the sisters, but escaped when her back was turned. Descriptions were sent out broad cast, but he eluded the police. He slept under steps, begged pennies and people gave him food. The police of the Western District apprehended him last Friday, and he was taken to the Juvenile Court, were he gave a fictitious name and told the officials that he had been brought here from te country by his parents and gotten lost from them. He was committed to St. Mary's Home, Pressman and Glimor street. One of the sisters there unpack a copy of the ARIZONA PECIFICAN book and where a boy called Frank Davenport had escaped from St. Mary's Home. Despite the fact that the boy depicted that he was the one, one of the sisters went to the home of the Davenports at 298 N. Arlington avenue and ascertained that their ward was the boy wanted. On his promise to do better the boy was turned over to Mrs. Davenport's brother, John T. Gilles, Monday, and he took him to her home. He was washed up, given a change of clothing and a good meal. He was allowed to sit on the front steps with another boy. Tiring of this, he asked to be allowed to go into the yard and run out of the gate. Mrs. Davenport gave chase, and after running out blocks after blocks caught him. He tugged and tried to get out, but was taken back home. He was made to put on his clothes and placed in an upstairs room. At night he was taken to the Southwestern Police Station, and on Tuesday his sentence to Choltenham followed.

ALL WHITE JURY CONVICTS BROWN Declares Alleged Murdered Of Annapolis Nurse And Third Degree Victim Is Guilty In First Degree Altho it took the better part of Monday to hear the evidence in the case it only took an all white jury 20 minutes to agree upon a verdict in the case of the State George Henry Brown in the United States Court, before Judge Rose, Monday. Brown, attired in his sailor's uniform, listened stolidly to various officers of the Naval Academy and others testify he had told them how he had killed Harriet M. Kavannaugh, white, a naval academy nurse, in Annapolis, and when on the ship himself obeyed the confessions, and pleaded "not guilty." August Schnepte, Brown's white attorney, contended that Brown's confessions to witnesses and before the Naval Board were forced by third degree methods, and should not be admitted as evidence. Judge Rose thereupon ruled all testimony except that before the Naval Board. The jury was "guilty of murder in the first degree" carrying with it death by hanging. Brown's only witness was a fellow mess attendant who testified that by orders of Lt. Smith, white, a giant sailor was put into the cell with Brown before the "confession" and beat him severely. Both Green and House, another mess attendant, it was said, had orders to pummel Brown and keep him from sleeping for 24 hours. Baby Born Dead Mrs. Pannie Gardner, a midwife living at 202 N.

J. 41. Dorsey, pastor St. Monica's Catholic Church All classes, all creeds, all races feel most deeply the death, the loss of James Cardinal Gibbons, Archbishop of Baltimore, prince of the Roman Catholic Church. He was nature's nobleman. He knew no race, no color, for he was truly CATHOLIC. Fresh in my mind are the opening words of that great race leader, Booker T. Washington, at the fine convention of the National Negro Business League in this city: "I am glad that this convention is held in the native city of Cardinal Gibbons, that true friend of my people, who bitterly opposed Negro distranchisement and segregation." The colored people of America, indeed, the world over, feel most intensely his loss. We Catholics, that we have lost a friend, a father. At his brief we shed children's reeds. The race has lost its best friend. Three colored priests received ordination from his saint hands. He had faith in the colored man. The race is indebted to him. It was his delight to confirm at St. Peter Claver's Church. No one could take his place. He loved St. Frances Convent, the Oblate Sisters. I remember well when the ten thousand dollar campaign for the Oblates was on, he called me to his residence, spoke of his interest in that Holy Sisterhood, and thanked me and my associates in that campaign. We shall remember him in our prayers; and we, the Negroes of America, of the whole world, pray the Almighty God, that he will raise up a successor worthy of him. Catholic in every meaning of the word. Increase in cost of Chicago divorces means an increase in common law marriages. No power under the sun can compel a woman to live with a man of whom she is tired, just as no power can keep her from marrying him once her mind is made up. When the white voters of Hagerstown put up a white man on the Independent Republican ticket to oppose Richard Barmum, nominated on the regular Republican ticket, they showed the Hagerstown colored voters how little party ties mean after all. All of the Republicans sitting together could have elected Barmum, but, as it is he polled just enough votes to make the Democrat win. · THE CASE AGAINST THE W. B. A. Jim Crow Car laws were struck a mighty blow last week, when Judge McCoy in the District of Columbia Superior Court awarded judgment against the Washington, Baltimore and Annapolis Railway Company to the extent of $1,000 in a jim crow case. Mr. Frederick W. Brooks and Walter A. Waller, business men of Kentworth, Md., took a train from Annapolis to Naval Academy junction, two points within the state, in order to change at. Annapolis Junction and take a train for Washington. At Best Gate the white conductor put both men off because they refused to go into the jim crow car. At the trial the Company held that it was keeping within the state law, which is to provide separate seats for the races in a state traffic. The car, it is said, plied only between Annapolis and Annapolis Junction, and therefore came within the rule. Justice McCoy shattered this argument by reference to the tickets of the plaintiffs which were stamped Annapolis to Washington. Since Washington was their destination, it made no difference what kind of a train they rode on, they were entitled under the ruling of the Supreme Court to sit where they pleased. When the Railway Company saw that the case was lost, its attorneys pleaded with the jury to award the plaintiffs one cent damages. It had already had the two colored jurors in the panel excluded, but an all white jury brought in a verdict for $500 in each case! The company has appealed the case, but it is belied that the decision will stand. Colored people in the state will rejoice over the decision, and especially will a death blow be struck to the several electric lines running from Washington to Alexandria, and other points in Virginia, which have made it a practice to jim crow colored people as soon as the cars crossed the state line. Crimes in Georgia continue to keep the "LYNCHING STATE" on the front page of the daily newspapers. John Williams, white, and (his man Friday) Clyde Manning, who held a number of colored men in slavery, and then murdered them in cold blood when it was found out that they planned to tell, are the latest. Both men appear to be equally guilty. The white brute Williams, as far as can be learned conducts another of the cold blooded slave camps that can be found in isolated places in the South. He wanted to make money and make it fast. Unpaid labor was one way to do it. The fact that it would cost something in human lives did not enter his calculations. Manning, his colored foreman, was the instrument by which the white farm gower carried out his desires. He enticed the men to work on Williams' place with the promise of big wages, watched over them by day, chained them up at night, and killed them when they complained too much. Bodies of eleven men killed by the master and his trusty were recovered up to Sunday, and the search is expected to reveal others. The South has not a crime as brutal as this for many years. Despatches declare that sentiment is against Williams. It ought to be, but even with sentiment will Georgia hang Williams and Manning? WORDS AND ACTIONS "I must correct the impression that jobs are the most important part of politics."—JOHN PHILIP HILL. ATOR WELLER. "Lack of agreement among the (joke) committee of 35 has not made it possible for us to make our representations sooner to President Harding concerning A position for some colored Republican"—GALEN L. TAIT. Moral: Beware of the man who makes an effort to discourage you from running for public office. He is either holding one himself, or has his eyes on one. In the former case, he does not wish to be annoyed, in the latter, he wants your support. PAST ARGUMENT James Scott arrested for arguing with several white men in a loud voice on the street, beaten and shot by the policeman who made the arrest, is sent to the South Baltimore General Hospital where he refuses to make a statement to Magistrate Potee or the police. Queer is it not for a man to lose his voice so suddenly. The constitution of the United States and the state of Maryland guaranteed him the right to open his mouth, but the Police Department stepped in on Saturday to limit his right to argue with white men. Scott had some contention with several white men at the corner of Montgomery and Hanover streets. Patrolman Ellard, white, came up, and constituting himself, judge and jury decided that Scott was the offender and hauled him off to the patrol box. According to the patrolman Scott was the only person guilty of any infraction of the law, which was talking to white men. Naturally Scott objected to being the goat for the policeman, and at the patrol box resisted arrest. As expected he got the worst of the argument again. He sent to the hospital with three bullets in his body from the cop's gun. Scott himself was unarmed, and so far from the policeman when he fired his gun that he did not know the bullets had taken effect. Scott's contact with the Police Department certainly justifies him in refusing to make any further statement to them. By now he may be where he is past the power of the police to extract a statement from him. If he is, it will be just another case of the police being always right and the public always wrong. RHEUMATICS ARE WEATHER BAROMETERS Some persons who are chronic sufferers from rheumatism are able to foretell the weather with some degree of certainty according to Henry J. Cox, white, official weather forecaster for the Weather Bureau in Chicago. By the use of the barometer it has long been known that the atmospheric becomes lighter as a storm approaches. This is the source of the pains, says Mr. Cox who makes the following explanation: "Rheumatics feel aches and pains before a storm; but this is not due to the increasing moisture and wetness, but rather to decreasing atmospheric pressure. The air in the intercellular spaces beneath the skin presses, of course, in all directions; and if the pressure of the atmosphere outside decreases rapidly, the outward pressure in these cells becomes pronounced, and in case of diseased conditions, causes pain. Where the cells and body are perfectly sound, no pain ensues with changing pressure." For a long time sufferers from rheumatism longed to find out what was good for their ailment, instead Mr. Cox comes along and tells "what the ailment is good for." 1 Monument To Dead Of 372nd Infantry Erected By Them Near Monthhois, Ardennes, France— And Dedicated October The 372nd Infantry was organized in January, 1918, at Newport News, Va., by combining into one regiment the following organizations of the National Guard: First Separate Battalion, District of Columbia Infantry. Ninth Separate Battalion, Ohio Infantry. First Separate Company, Connecticut Infantry. First Separate Company, Massachusetts Infantry. First Separate Company, Maryland Infantry. First Separate Company, Tennessee Infantry. The field and staff officers and the officers for the Headquarters and supply Companies were specially assigned by the War Department from available white officers. The regiment arrived in France in April 1518, and was shortly thereafter turned, over to the French Command, serving successively in the 63rd, 35th and 157th French Divisions, organized and equipped MAKING GOOD IN INDUSTRY Records of the Labor Department show that 24,647 colored men were employed in the shipyards during the war, and five out of every hundred were skilled workers. A detailed study has also been made by the Department of thirty typical industrial plants in the East and West, divided among iron and steel works, packing houses, foundries, coke ovens, glass concerns and automobile factories. Of the total of 36,486 men employed in these thirty plants, 4,092 were colored. Dr. George Haynes, head of the Department of Negro Economics in his report just made to the Secretary of Labor says that accurate comparisons were kept of the work of both white and colored workers, on the various scores of turnover, absenteeism, quality of work done and average rates of pay, and average time put on a job during a payroll period. He found that colored workers made a surprising showing. They fell behind the white workers in a few points; on most they kept pace with him, and in some they went ahead of the whites. This was the case in spite of the fact that in many plants colored men were limited to certain tasks and not permitted free or advancement. It is enough to fire the hope of every worker with unconquerable hope to know that, the average colored industrial worker has made and is making good and where he has been given just half a chance he has shown himself capable of doing the nation's as a French Infantry Regiment. From June to December, 1918, it formed an organic part of the 157th French Division. In addition to holding several regimental sectors the segment participated in the September-October attack, on the Champagne Front, as a front-line regiment. For its conduct in this battle the regiment received the following citation in orders of the French Army: "Gave proof, during its first engagement, of the finest qualities of bravery and daring which are the virtues of assaulting troops. "Under orders of Colonel Tupes dashed with superb gallantry and admirable scorn of danger, to the assault of a position continuously defended' by the enemy—taking it by storm under an exceptionally violent machine gun fire. Continued the progression in spite of enemy artillery fire and very severe losses. They made numerous prisoners, captured cannons, machine guns and important war-material." Before returning from France the members of the regiment contributed and turned over to their commanders in the 157th French Division a fund for the erection of a battlefield monument, as a memorial to those comrades who were killed in the battle on the Champaign Front. This monument, which is shown in the accompanying photograph, was erected on the battlefield near the village of Montheis, Ardennes, France, and was recently dedicated. HERSCHEL TUPES. * A STEP NEARER Charles. Gilpin was presented in the "Emperor Jones" supported by a cast of students from Howard University in Washington on Monday. Mr. Gilpin made the trip to the capital from New York especially for the performance which took place in the morning and returned to New York at night in time to keep his own engagement in the Princess theatre there. Aside from the fact that the Howard University players utilized the Belasco theatre, white, instead of one of the large colored theatres, their production of the "Emperor Jones" shows progress of the right type. A number of years ago, Howard players started off their dramatics by presenting Shakespeare's "Taming the Shrew" the "Merchant of Venice" etc. From this point the move was made to modern plays written especially for white actors by white authors like the "Rivals" and "Sappho." This year the players have not only produced "Simon the Cyrenean" and the "Tents of the Arabs" plays written especially for colored actors by whites, but they presented on Monday the "Emperor Jones," with Charles Gilpin as the star and two additional performances with one of their own actors, George D. Williams, taking the leading part. It is not a great step from this point to the place where Howard students will write and produce their own plays. Certainly their rapid progress under Professor T. Montgomery. Gregory is in this direction. THE OUTDOOR SHOW I. I. Jack on in the Billboard The talents more than 4,000 Negroes are occupied in the entertainment of the American public when it seeks amusement in the open. Over a hundred bands of colored musicians interpret ragtime, jazz, or the traditional 6-8 music of the show world. These bands vary in size from eight to forty members each. Prof. F. G. Lowery and his band, for twenty-one years a feature of the bigger circuses, is probably known to more people than any other in the long list of Negro musical organizations that have long since become established parts of the circus business. This band is one of the institutions of the big show. He is now with the Ringlings. Practically the same may be said of Prof. Wolfscale, whose service record with the Barnum & Enley's show is a virtual replica of Prof. Lowery's. SOME AMUSEMENT PLACES George Rice, for years with the Wonderland Museum in Detroit, will be remembered by many for his snake shows. R. C. Puggsley's "Silas Green" Company gives employment to a half hundred of his people, and furnishes amusement to thousands. He is one of the business geniuses of the race. At or near Norfolk there are two park enterprises owned and operated by members of the race. The biggest park venture of the race is the Mason Amusement Co., operating Wonderland Park at Baltimore, Md. This is a $220,000 corporation, owning 14 acres in the suburbs of the city, valued with its improvements at over $100,000. The park has one of the largest dancing pavilions on the seaboard. There is a whip, flying horse and an ocean wave on the premises, as well as numerous minor devices. CIRCUS ACTORS OF MERIT In the circus tents we have some representation. Eph Thompson's elephants are known to the whole world. "Callope" Clarence, Cottman "has more than justified his "momniker." He is an artist with the steam pipe organ. Queen Dora, the fire dancer, has earned an international reputation both inside and outside the houses and tents. Wells and Wells are trapeze performers of considerable merit. Evans Fuller is a good acrobat, and Chas Gaines, does the same work in a classy fashion. Coy Herndon, the. hoop roller, was a feature with Howe's Great London Circus last season. Manzie Richardson is a wire walker, and balancer, and Alfred Drew is a shack wire artist and comedy juggler. Mr. and Mrs. Gray, billed as Gray and Gray, are high-class balancers and do strong jaw; net. Pickett, the man who "bulldogged" steers on the "Bill" show, is well known. He is a genuine cowboy, born in Texas. SOME FREAKS In the freak section we seem to be unlucky represented. There is Tip Tomasky, the monkey boy; Aboma, the tall woman; Princess Wee Wee; South Sea Island Joe; Princess Randin, the armless and helpless wonder, and Congo, who dances upon broken glass. The foregoing is in no wise a nearly complete list of Negro acts and attractions. Rather, they serve to demonstrate that the race is represented in all phases of the show business. LIBERIA LOOKS GOOD "Africa looks all right to me. On the 13th of January I set foot on these shores, and found the people anxiously awaiting my coming. The welcome was indeed cordial. People are the same the world over. I find them very anxious. so go forward with the work. No effect has been made to push back into the hinterland. All that has been done is just along the Coast-fifteen miles. We must push back into that unreached territory toward the boundary. "The people are anxious to have us come. There are about two millions in Liberia to whom the benefits of Christian civilization have not been extended." FORUM. GRADUATE LAW STUDENT OF BOSTON UNIVERSITY, BOSTON, MASS., TAKES ISSUE WITH KELLY MILLER. To the Editor: Few colored men of the nation are held in greater public esteem than Dean Kelly Miller of Howard University. As a man, he has no superior, and as literary scholar, he ranks with, America's best. But in the field of sociology and politics, he is as incapable as Burleson was as Post-Master General, and as helpless as Woodrow Wilson as Versailles with Lloyd George, Sonino, and Clemenceau. It is greatly to be regretted, therefore, that this erudite professor does not remain within the sphere of his prolific adaptability. For Dean Miller to urge that the ministership to Hayti should go to a white man is to back hark to the gloomy days of Wilsonism, sanction the hybrid precedent of the bourbon Executive, and impeach with impetuous discredit the magnificent service and the proud tradition of Negro ministers from Dogglas to Grimke. The Dean's logic is concentric. He argues that "the Haytian ministry is the biggest prize that the colored man can get," and then declares that he shouldn't be given it. Strange paradox! The trouble with our Dean is that his Americanism is like the Republicanism of the Negro, blind to the point of self-condemination. Whether with wisdom or folly, the Negroes supported the Republican party almost to the point of stupidity, and will just demand a pro rata share of the spoils of office; and we submit that the views of Dean Kelly Miller do not represent the views and sentiments of the modern, enlightened, progressive, Negro voters; that his argument exhibits more zeal than reason; and reveals the fact that he is blindly enthusiastic for the millenium, and does not understand the ramifications of the present scheme of politics, diplomacy, and the existing social order. Washington D. C., March 31—(Special) President J. Stanley Durkee of Howard University, and Emmett J. Scott, secretary of the institution were callers at the War Department and were closed with Secretary Weeks and Assistant Secretary Roosevelt for nearly an hour last week. It is unstood that Howard University is asking the assignment of a regular army officer to command the R. O. T. C. President Durkee is insisting, it is said upon the assignment of a colored regular army officer to the University, and sent back to the War Department three white officers who were assigned to the University during February and March. The President is quoted also as saying the University will give up the corps rather than accept a white officer. At present the University Corps is commanded by Warrant Officer Edward York of the regular army. Warrant Officer is a non commissioned rank between sergeant and second lieutenant. According to the army regulations, however, a commissioned officer must be assigned to schools or else the unit is given up. There are only two colored officers in the regular army at present and both of them are assigned, Major Green at Wilberforce, and Colonel Davis at Tuskegee. It is understood that the officials suggested to the War Department that a way out could be found by recalling former Major M. T. Dean, commander of the 317 Ammunition Train in the war and now head of the department of Physical Training in the university, to the Reserve Corps and assigning him to active duty as Corps Commander. 488 In Unit At present Howard University Reserve Officers Training Corps numbers 488 men under Officer Yorke and Sergentes W. H. Hazel, Dorsey Rhodes, Darwin and E. Smith. Sergent Rhodes former commander of the 351st F. A. Band is in charge of the Howard Band of 48 pieces. Sergent Rhodes was also band sergeant of the 9th and 10th Calvary. 50 cadets will be sent to the Plattsburg, N. Y. camp this summer.

MURP "The White Man's Burden" This is the Fourteenth Installment of "The White Man's Burden" FRIDAY, APRIL 1st, 1921 "The Whi A Story of A By T This is the Fourteenth SYNOPSIS OF THE PRE- GEDING CHAPTERS Begin now on the most gripping serial you have ever read. In the Year of our Lord 2012, 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 while was powerful enough to defeat the United States in open warfare. Victory came to the black soldiers from the use of the new invention of artillery 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 needed for this purpose. In Africa the former black Amer- ticans set up a government, which is nevertheless the most peace loving and orderly, powerful in the world. CHAPTER XVII THE CATASTROPHE As the landing we found the skiff waiting for us and in a few minutes, we were back again on the island, and preparing to, leave. Food and drink had taken hold, and a suggestion of my companion I took my seat as before. He remained a few moments in curious conversation with his owner of the hut. And then received from him a considerable amount of the money of the country, and he brought in eighty bags of gold and silver. Entering the hut for a few minutes he soon emerged in his own proper attire. The he made his inspection of the machine, going over every part of it as carefully and minutely as possible, and produced a goodly to his friend, and we mounted in the air. We rose with great velocity, so as to elude observation as soon as possible, and started on our return trip—it was already twilight, and we probably got away unnoticed. Again: we had favorable weather and alight and alight and alight and the skies were not entirely free from clouds, it promised to be a pleasant trip and one without incident. "We ought to reach home by six o'clock in the morning," he remarked, as he bent himself to the task of keeping our craft to her course. There was little said during the return journey, and there is little to be said about it here. We went through without mishap, and it was practical to keep a good deal of the time during the day we spent over the ocean, and during both of the nights I was entirely oblivious of the world. Toward morning of the second night I was aroused by a touch upon my arm and opening my ceylon and unwinding; and I could see in the cast a glimmer of light breaking in upon the gray pall that covered the sky. In the distance I could barely discern outlines of the land, and we were evidently rapidly nearing home! Home! We struck a stranger, such a time, but that was the way I looked upon it odd as it may appear. What other home had I now? As we sped on toward the rising sun, it became lighter very rapidly, and as we approached the coast we saw the immense fleet of transports and convoys already at anchor and landing their troops and supplies. The work appeared to be about completed, for several large bodies of men could be seen in the distance already on the march. ****** "They are losing no time," said my friend, who had the eye of a hawk; "they have sent the artillery-aboard long ago. See them, do you, on the horizon." ****** But I could see nothing of them and said so. "They are not more than twenty miles or so from our frontier," he added, "and will probably be there by moon or shortly after. In fact I should not be surprised if some of the force were already, confronting us, and had taken up their positions. We have no time to lose." "How large an army do you suppose they have?" "I have learned that there are about two hundred thousand of all arms in the expedition," was the reply. "That being considered ample to take possession of the territory they covet and bear down all opposition." And how do you propose to meet shut it force? "That you will see. I had hoped that you might be spared the worst, but if they are beating us where the consequences, without collapsing, yourself." "Konsense," I replied. "I can stain anything I am likely to see. We were now near the coast, and our craft had evidently been seen for many of the officers and men were stretching their necks to look up in our direction, and we air and on the ground, and de- teard a few rifle shots as we passed the clouds of dust that were over them, and I thought I heard the whistle of bullets. The Negro showed not the slightest concern, however, and we kept our course like an army. ****** "It makes no difference . . . horse whatever they will or not." * she died; "they will procure no in- formation that they will ever be able to take home." At this point the fliers began to descend slowly to ward the ground, retiring as soon as possible, and the team perceiving the movement, peased their artillery fire, 'and In a few moments we were hovering over the place from which we started four days before, and settled down gently behind the house. We both went in to refresh ourselves after our long journey and my host retired to his room for a short rest, while I, who had all the sleep I needed on the way, went out-of-doors to meet one, and could talk with no one around me, and nobody, after the first glance paid me the slightest attention, and so I seated myself on a bench in the open air, and looked about with interest at the busy population of the place. Naturally they were all in a state of excitement, and were running amlessly about like ants in an ant hill. I thought, meeting, talking, separating, a cootie, buzzing bush, buzzing that elderly individual had their curiosity and interest in pending events. Boys and girls started here and there with messages, and the older people, while graver and more composed, yet showed traces of apprehension and dismay. They did not all, it appeared to me, possess the extreme confidence of my host, and I myself, now walking with the grimness of their wrinkened, did not feel sure that they were all practical in their application, and particularly on such an extensive scale as would be required in the conflict, that seemed to be imminent. While I was weighing the changes in my open mind, my companion made his appearance, and beckoning to me, started down toward the door and stood up with him, and we walked on together to the camera building. . * * * * * On our way, the Negro informed me that a messenger had been sent with a flag of trace to the camp of the encoy, with a demand that the expedition be abandoned and the forces withdrawn from the country, and the threat to the most terrific consequences, and that few of them could hope to escape unsheathed. The messenger had just returned with a most contemptuous and derisive refusal and a counter demand for instant surrender. * * * * * "Door fools!" he murmured. "They do not know." They do not work. I noticed at as we passed along. I noticed at a frequent intervals small heaps of pine, breadth material and here and there poles had been erected, bearing upon their tops bundles of the same stuff. I could also see in various directions' small spheres floating in the air without apparent support, like toy ballons. We had now arrived at the camera building and entered the same apartment I had been in before. The old man, venerable and dignified, was already there and the two friends greeted each other effusively. Some changes had been made in the interval of my visits. The furniture, simple and good, had been been, and the space was open so that movement was free in any direction. The roof had been removed, and the building was now open to the sky, and fully exposed to wind, sun and rain. At one side, near the wall was a long row of knobs or buttons, which I had not held before, and therefore took to be recently put there. Otherwise things were unaltered. After a short talk between the friends, the central knob was manipulated by the old man, and although the midday sun was blazing down upon us, the picture on the wall was as vivid as ever. We could see the camp of the enemy, with the greatest indifference, and observed that their guns were already in position to begin a bombardment. As I gazed intently upon the scene, there rose all along the border line machines like that in which we made our over sea journey, and and from them we received and erecting lines that extended along the entire front hung other lines touching the earth. Slowly and majestically rose these curious craft, while the trailing lines unwound behind them, until they were above the range of missiles and then they halted and remained suspended the air, and the indentured military men, and they were considerably nonsuprised at first, for we saw them gathering in knots and using their glasses, while they consulted together in some confusion. After a while they were apparently reassured and went on briskly with their preparations for serious business. Presently, a white vapor were visible where the guns were located. Firing began. Now I saw the meaning of the line of fliers with their drooping attachments. They were the first line of defense. The shells could never pass their line. That I knew from the mechanism, but to my surprise, as the firing increased in rapidity and volume, there were explosions and showers of dust not far away from where we were, and in another moment something immediately overlaid, and smashed. Can it be I thought, that their vaulted protective measures are futile, after all? But almost immediately the truth flashed upon me. These explosions were caused by the little leape and flooding of the gun, and were a trick to deceive the enemy and lead them to suppose their shots had taken effect. I could see them watching the path of the shells, evidently losing their line, and then waving toward one another with a need of satisfaction as they saw the explosions in side. The enemy were evidently perplexed and began to hold consultations again: At this point the officers began to descend slowly toward the ground, retiring to rear as they did so, and the enemy, perceiving the movement, ceased their artillery fire, and developed developments. They did not halt long, but quickly concluded, that our side had been cowed and would be an easy prey. . . There had been no counter fire, and there were no fortifications or defensive works of any kind, so far as they could detect, and it soon became evident, from their actions, that they were getting ready for a assault in force. Columns were rapidly brought forward and the entire army seemed to be advancing to attack. What, I wondered, would the Negroes do now? My companion was as calm and cool as ever, but the old man who, during the bombardment had been extraordinarily alert and active for so old a person, darting from one side to the other and pressing the knobs which evidently produced the detonations. I had heard, was now perfectly still, but leaning forward a little, with his hand upon a long lever that I had previously noticed for it had lain in contact with the wall, and being colored in the same shade, had bee inconfcious. Now he had put it out a trifle, and stood like a statue, awailing developments. At this moment my friend leaned over to me and whispered, as if he were in fear of disturbing or dismaying the attention of the other: "Be All attention. When you hear a loud noise singing, cover your eyes, or you will go blind." We waited in breathless suspense. On came the soldiers who were now near our line, and were beginning to advance at a double quick step. Suddenly, I heard music, singing voices, giving forth the sweetest, the most fullest and the saddest strains that ever fell on mortal ear. My companion whispered: "It is the women, and children singing a dread for your countrymen." Tears 'come in' my eyes. What's that? A loud long hiss. I throw my coat over my face and covered my eyes with my hands. There was a blinding white flash that seemed to flood the air around us, a sudden silence. I thought that menacing noise I think that even shook the earth. I felt the ground tremble. An earthquake. I was bewildered and threw off my coat. Silence. The Negroes were standing like statues. And then I saw, horrors of horrors, that before me where a moment ago had been been brimming with the joy of life and eager for combat and glory, were blackened sticks and stumps, distorted beyond conception and looking like the charred remains of a forest fire. I was stiff with horror. And then the heavens were opened, and down came torrents of rain. Even as I gazed, the blackened forms melted away, beaten down by the falling deluge into indistinguishable mud over the land of the plain. Leggings I could recover from the dreadful shock, to my great astonishment my calm and dignified friend, who had never more than and clapping me on the shoulder, smiled, burst into a coarse gaffaw, shouted in my ear: "Do the crops a lot of good, hey!"

I'm feeling just nanny goat-chucks, and I hope you are the week before last I told you of a very mysterious boy in Baltimore by the name of "Eagle Eyes": "his great boy of mystery—'Bakun' is just talked about by hundreds of boys in Baltimore, and many other places." They all want to see "Eagle Eye" and learn more about him. Well, he's so very very many boys, have all about who the Eagle Eye is, and all about him. He'd tend to be very careful in answering any question about this boy directly to those who have asked. But since so many would like to know at all about him, I will for about three weeks tell you just enough to make you careful in watching for this wonderful guy of mystery. Well, let's go. First watch the field, then walk fast and sometimes walks slow. He sometimes walks with one hand in his pants pocket and, the other hand in his coat pocket. Sometimes you might catch him walking on the top of his head, clapped on the top of his head, and you are looking at Eagle Eye. Sometimes while he he is talking with you he stops suddenly and looks away into space as if he is dreaming—look out for you are in his hair! Well, sometimes is stands straight up and sometimes it lays that—especially when he pushes it down with a pound and a half of hard, or goose-grease. When he hair down it would be slippery if he would slide out without using a sled. Watch out you might be looking at "Egle eye." His shoes? Well, he wears any size from a number 5 to a number 13—its all according to how his corns are behaving on his big toe. How does he get there? Well, he can ride anything from a billy goat—to a bicycle to a "aix"—no beware! Maybe you would like to know what kind of a hat or bonnet that "Eagle Eye" wears. Well sometimes he wears a great big hat but sometimes he wears a little more of those little close-fitting knitted caps with two little sharp pointed peaks up in front like little short horns; sometimes he wears a real cap of the latest style. He wears a hat with a right side of his head, and sometimes he wears the front of the cap behind like a firman. Watch every boy's cap fellows for you might be looking at "Eagle Eye!" Next week we will tell you more about him. From an INSPIRED FRIEND, I dear Editor. I am too to be visiting in your beautiful city Sunday and hearing of Boy's Day, can see to what the boys were doing. I was very much benefitted with Samuel Giles as a young speaker. Then at 3 P. M. Jerome G. Carpenter in an Organ Recital and the St. James choir were also very inspiring. At night, the Adelphian Orchestra under the leadership of Wesley Johnson also was good. But what he did was great. He appointed was the solo by Alaric Barrymore, Dodd, known as the "Incompareable." The last time I heard his beautiful full orchestra, I was so impressed by their beautiful high notes was in Atlantic City when he appeared atthe "Oceanic" on the boardwalk in 1918 when his singing, dancing and piano playing sat at the boardwalk in a tribut.
