WE HELP BUILD BUSINESS COLORED REGIST'R OF TREASURY IS OPPOSED Five Hundred White Girls Fearing They May Lose Jobs Send In OFFICE HAS GROWN World War Increased Clerical Force From 20 To 900 Washington, April 7 (Special)—Taking their cue from the fact that no colored man held the post of Register of the Treasury during eight years of the Wilson regime, more than 500 white women employed in that office have signed a petition opposing such a selection by President Harding. The petition was addressed to Mrs. Virginia White Speel, white chairman of the Women's Republican Committee of the District of Columbia. Copies of the petition have been sent members of Congress. The protestants claim that they are not accustomed by race prejudice but that Register's office now has "more than 900 clerks, mostly ex-service men and white women, who are dependent upon their income here for support. For a Negro to have jurisdiction over these clerks would be intolerable." Before the Wilson administration, there were only about twenty employees. Four of the 22 Registers have been colored. The first two under Wilson were Indians and the whites made no kick. The colored men who have held the position are former United States Senator B. K. Bruce, of Mississippi; Judson W. Layons, ex-Publican National Committee man from Georgia, who took the post when Bruce died in 1898; W. T. Vernon, now an A. M. E. bishop who was named by Roosevelt, and J. C. Napier, of Nashville, who held the position under Taft. President Wilson first named Adam E. Patterson, of Oklahoma to succeed Mr. Napier; but withdrew his name when Senators from the South kicked. Henry Lincoln Johnson has been boomed for the post by influential persons. DR. FITZGERALD DEAD Well Known Physician Passes Away Thursday Night Dr. Edward V.

HOODOOED WHITE WOMAN OUT OF SMALL FORTUNE Nineteen Year Old Youth And Grandmother Said To Have Kept Her Slave Five Months HYPNOTISM HINTED Youth Spent Money In Fire- Crackers And Theatre Tickets York, S. C., April 8—Mrs. Violet Shaw, aged 60 years, and her grandson, Ottis Fewell, are in jail on the charge of swindling Margaret Thomson, wealthy white spinister, out of $3,500 during the last five months by hoodooing and hypnotic methods. Suspicion was first aroused against Fewell, who, it is said, bought $100 worth of fire crackers Christmas and who boasts that he often chartered the two front rows of seats in moving picture houses. The power of Mrs. Shaw as a hypnotist is undoubted, and it is said that she kept the white woman a slave during the larger part of this time. Some time ago the Thomason woman claimed to have loss $1,500 while carrying it to the bank in Rockville, it is now believed this money went to the hypnotist.

C., April 5.—The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, 70 Fifth avenue, New York, today released a statement regarding an interview held by James Weldon Johnson yesterday with President Harding. Mr. Johnson in talking with the President emphasized the fact that the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, in speaking for twelve million colored citizens of the United States was not interested in the parceling out of petty jobs, but that its interest was in the enactment of measures to relative oppressive conditions affecting colored people.

Mr. Johnson also urged on behalf of the Association that the other points be taken up and action taken on them by the President. Mr. Johnson reports that his interview with the President was very satisfactory. The specific points discussed were: 1. Passage of a federal antitrenching law by Congress. 2. A wide and thorough investigation of peonage conditions in the Southern states, to be made by the Department of Justice, followed by the punishment of the perpetrators of the peonage system. 3. An investigation of dischernishment in the South and the rights of the Negro to vote under the identical qualifications required of other citizens. 4. The appointment of a national Inter-Racial Commission to make a thorough study of race relations. 5.

Members of the Ku Klux Klan who had Johnson in charge, drove to a lonely point south of the city and tied their victim to a fence post. Asked if he were guilty of being in the room of a white woman guest of the hotel, Johnson denied the charge and protested his innocence. We was, nevertheless, stripped to the waist and given 25 lashes. Although the victim was so weak he could not stand, members of the Klan held up his head, while one of the band branded his forehead using the liquid from a bottle of acid. The Klan then brought Johnson back to the city and threw his half unconscious body in the street in front of the hotel. PORTERS APPEAL CASE Richmond, Va., April 7—Suit of Oscar E.

BITTERFIGHT OVER EQUAL RIGHTS BILL Pennsylvania Lower House Tries To Recall Measure Passed During Last VARE TO RESCUE "Big Boss" Succeeds In Having It Kept In The Senate On Point Of Order Harrisburg, Pa., April 7—Rough sledding is ahead of the Asbury Equal Rights Bill which passed the House last week and now lies before the Senate. Over the strenuous objections of Representative Asbury, Tuesday the House voted to recall the measure. This was done, it was said in order to ask amendments which would keep colored people from white hotels. Although the attempt of the House to get the bill back into its jurisdiction was successful, as far as the House itself was concerned it was blocked in the Senate. There Senator Vare brought up a point of order based on an old decision of a presiding officer, which he maintained forbade the bill leaving the custody of the chamber. He was sustained in this point or order by the presiding officer and it was thus nullified. Efforts of the House to tackle the bill shows that the representatives who voted for it have changed their minds, due to protests from voters back home. They have lost all opportunity to vote on the case again and the fight is now in the Senate. In the Senate the bill has the support of Senator Vare and United States Senator Penrose. Some efforts will be made by the opposition to have the bill die in committee, but this is believed unlikely. A public hearing will be staged here next Tuesday. Thousands of representatives of colored organizations are expected to overwhelm the Senate Committee. 1 SLAVES HIMSELF. Johnny told me he'd kill me if I did not kill them," John Williams, white, boss of the farm upon which the bodies of the slain men have been found, is also on trial charged with murder and peonage. Bets of two to one are being offered that the white man will not be hung. His two sons are also implicated. Department of Justice Officials testified to the stockades in the farm upon which the colored workers were locked up at night after worked as slaves during the day. According to Manning, Williams ordered the death of his eleven shaves after the Federal authorities investigated his farm. Williams, he said, was afraid the men would tell on him. Mrs. Manning, wife of the farm boss, and cook for Williams, told the jury today that Williams treated her all right, but was hard "on them other colored men." SFUL MAN the specialty of male and female diseases, he became a recognized authority in the field of medicine. Sixy-two years ago last winter, the noted physician gave to the world a prescription which has never been equalled for the building up of weak, wormout, men and women. And from that day until now his famous prescription has been sold throughout the world under the name of Herbs Of Life. Before placing Herbs Of Life in Drug stores, Dr. Delano made a fortune in his private practice. His patients included, people in every walk of life; from poor hams up to a President of the United States. For fifty years Herbs of Life sold in drug stores at $5.00 per bottle, but during the past twelve years Dr. Delano has been cultivating Herbs of Life on his reservations, which enabled him to cut the retail price down to $2.00 per bottle. All once every year he sells every drug store in the United States to sell a unique number of bottles for $1.00 per bottle, in order to add millions of customers to his crowded list. Every drug store in Baltimore sells Herbs of Life, but we recommend that you purchase your bottle from one of the following: Hilburn, Northwestern, Fennell, Terrell, Derry, Young, Fowler, Drudid Hill, Livingston, Liebman, Wich, Russell Hauser, Grauul, Solomon, Hayes, Stokes, Omen, Boening, J.

Bond street, and the tragedy took place in the near-beer saloon conducted by his son Gilbert Cooper, at 1818 Orleans street, corner of Durham. Young Gilbert Cooper, it is said, discharged Johnson for cursing his father. When told that his services were no longer needed, the bartender became enraged, pulled a 45 callibre revolver from his pocket, while those in the place ducked, and fired point blank at the elder Cooper who was behind the counter. The bullet entered his right eye, passed out the back of his head and embedded itself in the wall. Johnson bolted for the door and escaped while Gilbert run behind the bar to pick up the lifeless form of his father. Johnson, who is a neat dresser, is well known in East Baltimore.

SECRETARY OF INTERIOR, FALL TALKS STRAIGHT Asks For Resignation Of All Who Cannot Work With Colored Assistant Secretary POLL OF CABINET Other Members Of Harding Family Working For Square Deal (Associated Negro Press) Washington, D. C. April 7—A Poil of the official family of President Harding shows Secretary Fall asking for the resignation of all who cannot work with his colored assistant former Lieutenant Henry O. Flipper and Secretary Mellen ordering segregation signs down. Secretary of State Hughes is giving careful and sympathetic consideration to the problems of Liberia, Haiti and the Dominion government. His reception to the Liberian Commission was necessarily formal, but nevertheless cordial. Attorney General Daugherty, through the department of Justice, is deliving into the terrible peonage conditions in Georgia who have taken the protests of organizations and citizens generally, that are pouring into the President and Attorney General are being given careful consideration, and so far as the government is concerned, these conditions will be dealt with firmly. Secretary of War Weeks has given assurance to those who have talked with his that there will be nothing but a square deal in his department for all. He is willing to disband soldiers, and in fact, all of those who were the Uniform in the World War, and who now uphold the honor of the flag. Secretary of Labor Davis is demonstrating to the world that he believes in justice. In the recent Packers' hearing, the Secretary of Labor stood like a stone wall in defence of treating Negro labor.

Dixon's “Jazz Landers.” < Doyle und Doyle opened. both the man and the woman in black- face, During the progress of thelr skit’ which consisted of the ordin- ary "singing, dancing and talk- ing” variety, the male member of the team gave an exhibition of head balancing which won him a good hand. His partner then fol- Towed in & solo number playing a banjo accompaniment. She re- ceived a good measure of applause. They finished to a ‘generous “hand.” ‘The Whitman Sisters followed, one making her entrance by im- personating a lady who had im- bibed too frecly of “!jump-steady.” The balance of their “time” con- sisted of singing and dancing in their characteristic manner. Their several numbers gave them an op- portunity ‘to make a number of changes of costume and millinery. all. of which were beautiful and unmistakably expensive. A bit of added interest was given their act by the appearance of a tiny tot who though just beginning to toddle about without assistance, proceed- ed to dance in, step with them at the finish, and then made his exit shaking a “wicked shimmy." Dixon’s “Jazz Landers” closed the bill with a skit built around the jealous husband. During the progress of this skit, Miss Emm Johnson sings several numbers in a very sweet voice; while “Crack- shot” Hackley and Roscoe Montel execute a series of difficult danc steps. "Crackshot" Hackley’ as th hired aman who is paid by th fealous husband (Mr. Dixon) t watch his wife, is a born comedia’ and kept the audience in continu ous laughter. The other member composing the “Jazz Landers played their parts well. ‘The com pany is well costumed and all 0 the girls are young and pretty.

Bost ‘THE RAINBOW + The Rainbow began the week with a crowded house: the result of the showing of William S. Hart in “The Aryan" one of his latest re- Yeases, and “The Life of Buffalo Bill" (Col. Wm. F. Cody) as the ‘accompanying attraction. In fact, the. entire bill at the Rainbow this week is a most at- tractive one. THE NEW LINCOLN The vaudeville bill is well up to the standard set by this house. It is comprised of “Butterbeans" and Susie, who have been held over from last week, and Gonzell White's “Versatile Company.” “Butterveans’ ‘and his partner Susie, are clever in their work and prove juxt ax popular as they did last week. After the usual melange of song and dance by the members of the chorus, four members of the “Versatile Company” headed — by Edward Langford who is owner and manager, played several numbers on ntusical instruments. Mr, Langford’ demonstrating much efficiency as a saxophonist. Then followed a shit having to do with a schoolteacher and an incorrigible pupll played by Mist Ebba Bristol as the. teacher and Miss Christina Gray as the pupil. During the skit both xing several songs in good style, Miss Gray is not only one of the best dancers, but is also one of the funniest young women on the vaudeville stage. She has a THE AFRO-AMERICAN bright future it she continues to improve. ‘The bill was closed with a very meritorious playlet bullt around the “eternal triangle” in which Mr. Langford enacted the role of the philandering husband, Miss Bris- tol, the long-suffering wife; Miss White—who in private lite is Mrs Langford—that of the wronged san ‘and Harry Sanderson, the protector of abused womanhood Each. of these characters wert splendidly acted, Miss White an¢ ‘Mr, Langford demonstrating act Hing abitity of real power.

For that matter, Dempsey will be a good twenty pounds heavier than Carpenter, so the difference in weight between the two battling players does not make it any one-sided affair. Norfolk has been dropping 260-pounders without extending himself, but so far none of them have been any Harry Wills by eight or ten kilometers.

Morgan And "Y" Game A Tirreller The Morgan College Quint had previously twice defeated the "Y" Five and was cut to win the third game in order to clinch the five game series with the necessary victory, but it was only after forty minutes of grunting work, did the "Y" five succumb. It was Sorrell of Morgan who would not be stopped by work by both teams Sorrell unimoled, got the first basket, a real beauty from near mid-foot. 182-foot for either clever double-decker. It was evident Sorrell should have been a marked man, for he is unquestionably a dangerous shot in the open. Fletcher, by this height pushed in one under the ball, the back half was substituted for the "Y" and in less than a minute made a dandy from a difficult angle. Shortly before the half ended Sorrell made another spectator long shot from the side. Sorrell scored at end of half was 10-5 with Morgan on the long end. Tight Guarding In Second Half Some exceptional tight guarding was done by both teams during this game. Their feet on their feet at each snap of the ball. Not until ten minutes of whirlwind play was either team able to score, when Fletcher suddenly loomed in the open and broke the ice with Morgan. Hodges, Morgan's left guard was guilty of the four personal four rule and was sent from the game. The "Y" quintet seemed to have an excellent chance Fight they did with a one point lead and five minutes to play with the "Y" coming strong, it looked like but out of bounds. The "Y" should have won the game on fouls but Cooper was not in his usual good form. Such guarding as was showing in the last five minutes of play was the whistle blew and Morgan emerged the victors 13 to 12. Line-up: "Y" MORGAN Langley F. Sorrell Dorssey (Capt.) F.

Eyckett Lane Many have requests come to the writer to select all star teams composed of the country's best players. It is a difficult job, and usually evokes, much criticism, however some teams have made a semble teams which include the best material that has been produced this season. While of course the selection is not infallible, there has been an effort to make use players who an offer to the game, in the last analysis it would be a combination of the best tossers of all clubs, not necessarily all stars, yet five that would prove machines if the opportunity were ever offered to combing the talent. Plenty Of Material The season has brought forth a wealth of material for the forwards. Posey and Blutt are picked. For the most part their work has been superior individually. To the floor work has been of the sensual variety. Sessons at center of Loendi, for all-around ability of the men. The guards Young and Hubbard are clever shots and hardmen to shake off. On the second team Jenkins of St. C. and Fields works for the men. Jenkins is a bray for work to say the least, but does not measure up in all-around work to Posey and Blutt. Fields work for the men. The excellent basket shot and a floor man of speed and ability. Sloogm of Spartans possesses all the advantages of the idea for the men. Forbes and Betts as second team guards would form as sturdy a defense a team could desire. They would be able to face deeties of Young and Hubbard. While the foregoing represents the best players of the season, honorable mention could be made. Howard, Vandula Richardson. Howard U. Browne Athenson, Swan, Titans and Hill Carlyles, forwards, forward U. Browne and Tibbs Athenson center; Gumps, Spartans and Hilton, Vandals guards. Girls Show Class Blanche Winston and Fannie Minor showed the way as girl forwards, their combined efforts have not been equaled. It is this combination which has allowed whose players must be able to stand out as individuals and yet be able to work with their teammates. Elizabeth Anthony of the Athenian Girls is easily the best team in all of her opponents, a factor which has been one of the Athenians leading points. Louise Parrott's defense work has been one of the bright features of the Athenians play this season, a minor worker and a dangerous shot. Tryptophan Camper at the other side of the road. In Miss Parrot, yet she is dependable and has shown all forwards the hard task of not easily being able to climb. Second Team Classy Theresa White of the Orioles and "Jeeny" Brown of the Athletics at forward would form quite a dangerous pair being excellent floor wink. Both are capable shots from the field and the foul mark and have been the bright stars for their respective teams all. .Like A Bank. WE Save Money For You If you give us a Chance to Serve You. B. S.

L. Smith of Birmingham was sent a statement to the white press informing them that Frank Purdue's famous black Barons would play in the park this season. In the neighborhood of the park sent out petitions for the purpose of enjoining the Negro leagues from playing on the grounds, that they were offended by the identity of the park. The decision came like a thunderbolt to those who were fighting the Negroes and the public is glad to know what sport lovers and the public time are not easily prejudiced. Washington, D.

It will be directed by the Public Athletic League and financed by the AFRO-AMERICAN. This is the announcement which was sent out yesterday by the Public Athletic League to every school principal in the city. In a letter signed by Mr. John L. Clark, field leader, who will direct the enrollment of the players, the formation of the teams and the contests, each school principal is asked to send in a list of the baseball players of his school, who will want to play in the AFRO BASEBALL LEAGUE. After the lists are in, Mr. Clark will supervise the formation of teams in each school, and work out a schedule of games, to be played on diamonds at Druid Hill Park. Provvision will also be made for teams to practice beforehand. With the start of the regular schedule, baseballs, catcher's mitt, mask and breast protector, and first baseman's mitt will be furnished for each team. Players will only have to provide their own fielder's gloves and bats. Mr. Clark will also turn up umpires and keep score. All the school boys will have to do is to get themselves together and practice hard to win the beautiful pennant that will go to the championship school baseball team of the city. This is the first effort ever made to foster baseball in the schools; and the AFRO-AMENICAN is going to do everything it can to make it a success. The first thing, however, is to get every baseball player in the schools enrolled, and his Monday, April 25th. Next week the Afro will talk about the schedule and the likely number of teams in the League.

Brennan, white of Philly in the first round of their scheduled eight round bout in Atlantic City last Thursday night. Jack McAuliffe announced his intention of invading England with Kid Norfolk. He thinks he can reap a harvest with the chunky Norfolk. R. M. M. Davidson in the Philadelphia American says, "The Sports Editor (Joe Rainey) of the Philadelphia American has several times made it plain that he considers "Scrapy" Brown a very good man, but not at all in Rainey's class. "Scrapy" doubts it. The track team representing Salem Crescens of New York contains two senior A. A. N. champions in Howard Drew and Roy Morse. Drew and Morse are training faithfully and are very optimistic over Salem Crescens' chances during the summer track season. Pedro Merales, the Cuban ball player, who may be seen in action this season with the Pittsburgh Giants, claims Frank "Stranglelet" Forbes one of the best shortstops in colored baseball. Jo Rainey is rounding into form and has announced his intention to enter the Metropolitan A. A. V. Championships to be held in New York on June 11. Gerald Allen, Pitt's colored track star, has made the team and will complete for Pitt in the half mile, quarter mile and broad jump at the Penn kelays in Philadelphia April 29 and 30. Marathon aspirants can be seen running thru the streets, getting in trim for the high school 21-2 mile run, to be staged next month. The Athenian Baseball team is shaping up for the coming season. They seem to have the making for a classy nine. The proposed Carlyle-Aleo basketball game for the District of Columbia Championship still hangs in the distance. The teams were to have gotten together this Friday night. Maybe they will—next year. Dope picks the Athenian Arrows as the city's lightweight champs. They defeated Morgan College and St. Mary's.

ALL READY FOR INDPENDENT REPUBLICANS First State-wide Convention To Be Called To Order At Lyceum Hall Tuesday TO HONOR HAWKINS Former Candidate For U. S. Senate Will Be Banquetted At Masonic Temple The convention of the Independent Political League, which will be held at Lyceum Hall Biddle and Eutaw streets, next Tuesday, promises to be well attended. Those attending will come from all parts of the city and various counties, and it is expected that a program will be adopted, which will not only include opposition to lily-whitism, but will back men and women of the race who run for public office. Better schools in the counties will be urged, equal pay for colored teachers, and equal accommodations on trains and steamboats. At the opening session, next Tuesday at 10 A. M., J. Steward Davis, who will preside, will deliver the keynote speech, W. Ashleb Hawkins, who ran for the United States Senate as an independent Republican, will deliver an address outlining the attitude the race should take toward men and measures. A free and open discussion of the plans of the League will take place at the afternoon session, when a permanent organization will be affected. Mayor Breenning's indifference to the political and civic needs of the colored people of this city and the refusal of state Republicans to recommend colored voters for any federal appointments in Maryland are said to have made the Independent Republican League much stronger than it was last fall. A banquet in honor of Mr. W. Ashleb Hawkins will wind up the convention in the evening. This function will be held at the Masonic Temple. McCullough and Mosher streets, and toasts will be responded to by prominent speakers. WANTED REFUND When Daniel Earle, a widower who lives at 2416 Oak street, procured a marriage license in the office of the Court of Common Pleas, Tuesday to wed Mrs. Mary E. Wyatt, who admits she is a widow of 41 summers, he wanted to know from Clerk Tom O'Neil would he get his money back should he decide that wedlock would be a bad bargain. "If you turn your license in before four o'clock today," responded Clerk O'Neil. Earle, who is 48 years of age, said that everything was not to his liking during his first marriage, and he thought a refund was due him, should all not be well with this marriage. He pocketed his license, however, and started out for his bride-to-be. Have your Work or Installment No cash Money Required and Painting, Paper Hanging soming, Brick Work, Ro FELDENHEIMER ILL?

In one of these bouts he got a purse of $2,000 from the Enreka Athletic Club and in the other a’ purse of $3,000 from the same elub, ‘Taking these fights into consideration to- gether with others in New York and else- where, the “bronzed fighter , has pulled, down $20,000 at lenst this year and maybe- more, Since this is true, anyone .can ser how from the: goodness of his heart, Kid Norfolk could hand ont 2.500 beans to the poor ‘Trish kids, : “ent. this is what we are getting to. Within a stone's throw of Norfolk's Balti- more home, are some poor black kids as poor as any anywhere in Ireland. Like Bert Williams, “Elder Eatmore" they necd everything from their hats down and from their overcoats in. «It is'a shame for ‘any- body to ask them what they need for they: need everything, and we know now, as we aia not know before that when the Kid's home folks come around to get a contribu- tion to help the poor binck kiddies of Palti- moré, he ‘will write them a check with just as much pleasure as he wrete the one for $2,500 for the poor white Kiddies of Treland, BLIND AND OTHER BLIND’ Tn 1919 there were 57.090 people in the United States who were blind. Nearly nine thousand of them were colored. Some of them were blind from. birth, others aficted by disease, accident or strain, but all of them were shut off from the light of God's beautifol sunshine te contemplation of the physical wonders of the universe and the feeling of freedom of Joromotion ana independence. ’ ‘Phase, however, wore not all, the blind people in the United States tabulated by ‘the Bureau of Census, Over in ‘another section of the Census records were set down three million whites and two million cotor~ ed people who were also hlind. ‘ Actually the Census BuFean classifies these five ‘millions'-under the head ‘of IULITERATES, but ‘being unable to tread and write and being blind amount to the same thing.’ The Miterate.is mentally blind. ‘The wisdom of the ages as it is made public in, books and newspapers is to him a per- fect blank and wilesi he is. eating oF arinkingor gambling, hfs leisnre time 18 seldom enjoyably shent. : ‘The physically blind: point to John Milton, Helen Keller, tind Tom and a shost . of others who in spite of their blindnggs made the world a: better place in ‘whiclWeo live Unfortunately the nientally, blind, the Mit- erate can point to no stich heroes.

PICKENS COMMENTS UPON “BRAINLFSS LOGIC” OF KELLY MIT- ‘To the Faitor: Dean Kelly Miller wants us to send a Jew or some other raee’s man as minister to Hayti rather than an AMERICAN who happens to be colored. We are surprised that Mr, Miller should take such a view, as it would certainly be unfortunate for the interests of all cofored folk. in Hayti, the United States, and everywhere else, it white Americans are given any firmer hold on Hayti than they now have. But tMe thing that surprises us most of all Is the “logie™ by which Trof. Miller ‘seeks to prove that it is best to send a Jew to Haytl, We had always regarded Prof. Miller as being logi- cal, but we see now that he is rather math- ematical. and the logic of mathematics is not at all like the logie of Ife and com- mongense. Two plus ‘two always makes four—in- mathematics. But two Ifons plus two lambs, makes neither four Ions or four lambs—anywhere on: earth. Para- doxically enough, the PLUS in this latter case is likely to result’ in a subtraction. Mathematies and formal “logic” are not the logte ‘of commonsense. Now Just Usten to What Prof. Miller actu- ally deduced. I wonder if he will want to own it when he thinks it over. Listen: “*We would hardly send an Ttalian ambas- sador'to Ttaly'or a Brenchman to France or a Ruseian to, Russia"—and_ therefore we should not send an AMERICAN (who hap- pens to wear a black skin or a black palr of socks) to Hayti! In the name of How- ar@ University, where did such brainless logic come trom? He compares the send- ing of a colored American to Hayti with the sending of an “Italian to Italy." Prof. Miller unconsciously (to he gqner- aus) adopts the white _man's, viewpoint: THAT A NEGRO IS A NEGRO: RATHER THAN AN AMERICAN AND SHOULD BE TREATED FIRST OF ALL AS A NEGRO AND NOT AS AN AMERICAN CITIZEN. svhile all other peoples trom all other parts of the world, even tho.they be In only the Second generation here, are to. be regarded as Americans, — Arkansis and Mississippl could not do “better ‘than that to save their mortal lives. : Tf such “logic” meant anything tt work? medn ‘that we should not send any man af Spanish descent to Mexico or Centra} Amier- ica; that we should ‘not send any man! of Portuguese descent to Brazil; or any Anglo~ . Saxon to England or Canada; or. hardly anytody at all to any place-—unless indeed we sent black people to about hil the coun- tries of Europe and Asia, and white péople only to Liberia and Haytl.” But when you think it all over. that logic’ means nothing but a prominent place on. the page of some daily newspaper. } = _ We -have to give it tg Profs Miller: he. fell down flat that time. : ‘WILLIAM PICKENS, i N.Y.C.

Open THE AFRO-AMERICAN "He was drunken, than I had ever seen him in all the years I had known him," said Mrs. Clara Smith Hampson, murder case that has been reported in the newspapers. "He choked me, and hit me, and threw me over on the bed. Then he beat me and slapped me, two feet apart, and began the one foot and perked me off the bed on my back." I had been operated on in the back and it hurt me extremely. I struggled to my teeth, and I began the window, and choked me, and slapped me. He wasn't satisfied with that, for he bent my fingers back and said he would break me, said he, "I would as soon all your throat as draw on this cigar." Then she shot him. A young Negro named Knight killed a woman in New Jersey, one hundred and forty and horribly mutilated her as she was walking peacefully home. He stood at the roadside in the dark, in the rain, waiting like a wild beast, to kill someone, anybody that would come along. "I done it!" he said afterward. "I killed the lady." Don't blame nobody else." Then he lit a cigarette and signed his confession. It was not he that killed the woman. It was Alcohol. There will be a deal of talk about the degeneracy of the Negro in this case. Which in nonsense. The Negro and another more cool and blinding than the white. The same devil made Knight a brute that is making beasts of hundreds of white men and women every night in the roadside and spookiness in New York. It is the same demon that made Hamon a ruin and cost him his life. Dooze was dead, enough before he proclaimed that the stuff that is sold is quite vicious. The man, who takes a drink now from a stranger or in a resort is a fool. Two men prominent in the business industry appear a New York hotel some months ago. They got some whiskey from a bell boy. One of them died in a few days. The other went blind and died later. There were those who conceive of the breaking of the law, and salgger at men, and women who dope themselves into maudtin-bustiness.

The Living Dead Man $ ^{99} $ FRIDAY, APRIL 8th, 1921. James Tyson, pursued by a mob set on lynching him, is tracked by bloodhounds to the river, where the trail ends. CHAPTER TWO If the mob in search of James Tyson had arrived at the riverbank a few moments earlier, it would have seen him hastily and excitedly walking in water up to his knees, in an effort to throw the bloodhounds off his trail. Or if the water had been slow closing on his footsteps, he would have been overtaken but water like all nature, is no respector of persons. It resists everything, never surrendering its sovereignty without struggle, and when its domain is invaded, soon hides all signs of the encounter. Several times Tyson stopped in holes and went down in water up to his waist and once he thought the water would surely claim him when he stepped, into a hole so deep that the water went over his head. At the very instant the hounds reached the bank, Tyson chambered out of the ice water onto a support neath the bridge leading from Crackleville to the Potter's Field. Here he paused, expecting at any moment to see the approaching mole, who was covered from head to feet with mud. His clothes were torn to tatters. He had run nearly five miles, and despite the fact that he had just emerged from the mole, he was streaming. His head swirled and he felt tain, Summoning all of his courage and strength, he swung by his hands from one support to another, and the ground well under the bridge. Here he let go of the support and clumsily settling on the ground, betrayed unconscious. As the first rays of the sun were peeping up from the east, Tyson clutched, heavy with mud, hung like lead from his shoulders. He was chilled to the bone. He made an effort to move himself and found that he was like rusty metal refused to move. He slow degrees, Tyson realized the seriousness of his situation. The events of the previous evening, re-encountered housemates that he was on his way home from his work in the Cruckerville Post Office, and had boarded a sweet seat in the colored section of the car were occupied but that there were several vacant seats back of the sign stack on top of the dividing seat reading: "For Negroes." Clearly, it was the conductor's duty to move the Jim-Crow sign further back in the car, but he did not do this, and Tyson, though from his day's work, stood the When the street car stopped at Main street, "opposite the Georgia Central Railway station, a young man came and came and came and a six month old baby in her arms, struggled into the front entrance of the car, visibly weared from travel, sunk down into one of the seats back on the Jim-Crow sign. No sooner had she let her suit case touch the floor and was arranging the clothing of her little one, when the conductor apologized and brought a disgruntled frown on his face. Hastily, she reached for her pocket book and offered him her fare. "Why Niger," he scowled, "who told you to sit here?" "Why, no," she faltered, and found herself unable to speak. "Get out of here and get where you belong before I throw you and pick a kickaway off the car," he said. Frightened, the young mother made no effort to move and the car it to take hold of her, but his hand did not reach her for at this juncture Tyson, who had seen and heard all, emptied the contents of the car and rolled into his body and bounded off the front end of the car before the startled motorman could come stop. "I'll never get away," he thought to himself as he lay there helpless. "Why didn't I give my life? would all be over by this time." Looking up, Tyson saw several men approaching the bridge in wide directions; and while they were watching, he knew that if he emerged from under the bridge, it would mean certain all his courage and strength. He pushed himself as far back as possible. A few minutes before, he had gripped that he had not given himself up. Now, with the approach of the posse, and death, he escaped and life. He felt sure that he had been seen by some one in the mob. Tyson manager to draw his revolver to the bosom of his shirt. He almost forgotten what he had done with it, but as he pushed himself up, it seemed he had stopped the cold steel against his body. He did not even know how many shots he had fired. He the men drew nearer his heart, but it seemed had stopped beating, but he brought through his whole body. He hindered: not so much from fear of death but from the way he should have to die—probably burn to death. He thought of his mother—his dear mother, whom he knew to be trembling, crying and praying for her. He thought of his brothers and sisters. The horse was now but ten or fifteen feet from him. He heard the noise made by several horses as their feet struck the bridge. have mercy upon my be so humiliated To Be Contained Week (By Associated Negro Press) Pensacola, Fla., April 7—Oil a million dollars was the text of a slick bill that helped fleece fleecing Pensacola Negroes of their hard earned money recently, opened in the big Negro Museum, and raised a rich harvest from his all too confiding victims.

Why last week after the first installment of the description of "Eagle Eye" so very very many boys were looking for this most mysterious character — "Eagle Eye"—that a certain boy is going to buy a pair of opera glasses in order to be able to see "Eagle Eye" from a distance. So to keep "this boy" (and a few others that might like doing the same) from being disappointed, let me say right here—don't do it! Cut no opera glasses! Get no telescope! Get no microscope! Get no "look-a-scope" of any kind! Why? Well the reason is this—In magic work we are told that the more we look, the less we look. This is the base with "Eagle Eye". The more we look for him the less we see of him. Remember he is a boy of mystery. Well, last week I told you that I would tell you more about him this week. So here goes! "Eagle Eye" is the guy that loves chocolate candy—almost any time you meet him he has some chocolate covered cherries or some other equally good candy in his pocket. So watch for the boy that is always eating "good candy." Remember that "Eagle Eye" is a very mysterious guy, and he often times does some very very funny things—for example: "Eagle Eye" takes a lunch with him; he either has a pigtail sandwich or a big's car sandwich. Some times he stops by a sausage curt and buys a couple of hot dogs. So watch for the boy that eats peculiar sand-wiches. It might be "Earl Eye." Watch for the boy that has a very peculiar voice for "Eagle Eye" sometimes talks so loud and heavy that you would almost think a "bear" was talking with a husky, voice. Sometimes "Eagle Eye" speaks so softly and gently that you would think you were listening almost to the whispered voice of a bear. Is that all? Why lands, no! Yet another! Shake hands with the boy that you suspect to be "Eagle Eye" and notice "how" he likes to shake. You might catch "Eagle Eye" that way for "Eagle Eye" never likes to have a long hand shake; and if you hold his hand too long he will pull it away from you. "Eagle Eye" in shaking hands likes to just barely touch hands and weakly shake hands only when chipping hands with him. If you find a guy like that, beware! for you might have found "Eagle Eye." Now listen follows be careful—very careful how you put "Eagle Eye" to the next test, for "Eagle Eye" is very strong, and very furious when once you get him started. He gets hot and is hard, very hard to cool down. But if you think you've got the nerve to try what, I'm about to tell you why go ahead. The other is more confident and sometimes "Eagle Eye" takes off his coat and lays it down beside him. Get another boy to hold "Eagle Eye" in conversation while you take a good look at the inside of his left coat sleeve. You will have to turn his left coat sleeve inside-out and look right on the elbow if it is patched on the inside with a little patch of bole-skin style. You have finally caught "Eagle Eye". Bit be careful for "Eagle Eye" is very furious at times, and if he ever catches you, you are a "pancake" before he let's up on you. So beWARE. One dollar reward to the boy that is wise enough to tell-who "Eagle Eye" is, and prove it. —The Editor.
