May Compromise Feldheimer Case Short Family Offered $500 no charge Prospective Man Charged With Counsel for Harry Feldheimer elder insurance collector, indicted for common assault upon ten year old Esther Short are making strenuous efforts to compromise the case to keep it out of court. Mr. and Mrs. James Short, parents of the child who live at 611 Pitcher street, admitted that, they have been offered $500 if they would go no further in the criminal suit against Feldheimer and file no suit for damages. This announcement made in the A. M. E. Preachers' Meeting Monday morning and in a meeting of the Citizens' Committee in charge of prosecuting the case Monday night, aroused a storm of objections. Speakers declared it would be violation of principle if any conviction were affirmed. Realizing that there are no witnesses to the outrage and that there will be only little Esther's word against Feldheimer's attorneys for the child are said to have advised the Shorts to accept the compromise. Feldheimer's relatives, anxious to avoid publicity are said to be putting up the money. The states attorney is reported putting to stop the criminal procedure against Feldheimer unless the Citizens' Committee is satisfied as well as the parents. Trial in the case scheduled for last Wednesday was postponed on account of Feldheimer's alleged illness.

WE HELP BUILD BUSINESS There has been suggestion, however, that some of its difficulty be a humane and enlightened consideration of it. a study of its many aspects and an effort to formulate, if not a plan, at an emotional attitude of mind calculated to bring about the most satisfactory possible life. One proposal is the creation of a commission representative of both races to study and report on the entire subject. The proposal has real meaning for mutual mutual tolerance, understanding, clarity, recognition of the interdependence of the races and the role of citizenship lies the road to righteous adjustment. This part of the Presidio's message is taken as an endorsement of the commission introduced in Congress again on Monday, and the Spencer bill for the appointment of a commission to study racial conditions in this country.

MADE BY THE MAKERS OF THE WORLD FAMOUS TONIC HERBS @ LIFE ASK YOUR DRUGSTORE In Autos Frederick, Md., April 13.—Following his acquittal by Judges Urner, Peter and Worthington on a charge of criminally assaulting Deisie Tweedale, white, of Catonsville Manor, relatives and friends of the girl made a premeditated effort to lynch Charles Henry Dorsey, of Baltimore. The attack was made in the Circuit Court immediately after Judge Urner declared *Dorsey* not guilty, saying the evidence against him was insufficient. The man's accuse, shrieked out in the courthouse and the meloe began. Her brother tried to reach Dorsey, but a blow from a police officer fell him. The Tweedale girl's father tried to assault Dorsey, but a blow from a colored man sent him sprawling. The three judges jumped from the bench and surrounded Dorsey, and the demand was made that the Tweedale partisans cause their demonstration by the jury. classroom, "Tom" Smith, the Baltimore hotel proprietor, who was in the courtroom when the verdict was announced, beat a hasty exit, and immediately left Frederick in his high-powered car. Capt. George AV. Brown, of Baltimore, who was also there, made his get away. He did not leave town until Tuesday night, making his way to Baltimore via the Harpers Ferry Road. Handed over do Baltimore detective Dorsey was taken back to jail. He was placed in an automobile near midnight and spirited out of town where he was released. Elmer R. Halle and C. Gus Grasson, the white lawyers from Baltimore County, who defended Dorsey, were also targets for abuse, and some of the mob threatened them. A woman from Catonsville Manor shook her finger in Attorney Grison's place as she snapped: "I have some black brute will rape your daughter." The attorneys immediately left for their hotel get their belongings, and were soon speeding toward Baltimore. Delisle Twedeade led the corridors while the trial was going on Monday, saying: "Look at those black apes," meaning the colored people present, and been previously convicted by a jury at Towson, Judge Duncan on an appeal from the attorneys of the accused, set the verdict aside. State's Attorney Jennifer, white, of Baltimore County, who was said to have used the word "nigger" and "brute," while Dorsey was on the stand, was cautioned by Judge Peter to accord the prisoner the same custody, gave other witnesses that Dorsey was in Baltimore at the time the crime committed. The decision of the judges delivered by Chief Judge Urner was as follows: "There is no denying that Miss Debie Tweedale was brutally assaulted. The State of Maryland does not provide sufficient punishment for her assault, even in death on the gallows, in really one question that confronts this court: Is the prisoner at the bar innocent?" "This court is sorry for Miss Tweedale. But this court is not at liberty to be carried away with sympathy. It is our duty to determine if the prisoner is guilty beyond a reasonable doubt. The Circuit Court of Baltimore County could not rid its mind of the question of reasonable doubt, as is evidenced by the trial of the man here after he has been found guilty in a previous trial at Towne, was granted a new trial by Judge Duncan. "We also must be certain beyond the shadow of any reasonable doubt that the Negro Dorsey is guilty. We must not make the mistake of sending an innocent man to the gallows. We have gone over carefully and we cannot rid our minds of that doubt that the Negro is guilty. We therefore find him not guilty." Hiru Shampoo and pressed, pressed until without charge.

THE OPPORTUNITY to purchase high grade securities on a price basis to return 7 or 8 percent is offered in the present DOUGLASS AMUSEMENT CORP. The response made by the people of Baltimore to this unusual offer indicates their faith in the accomplishment of this huge undertaking and the ultimate benefits it will bring them in the way of dividends and profits BANK OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA The Douglass Theatre Now under construction on Pennsylvania avenue near Lanvale street When the Half-Million Dollar Dunbar Theatre at Broad and Lombard Streets, Philadelphia, opened last December, several of Baltimore's prominent citizens were present. All of them were very lavish in their praise of the beautiful theatre, and were all agreed that it was the handsomest theatre in the United States owned and controlled by colored people. And the request was made on that evening that a duplicate of the Dunbar Theatre be built in the City of Baltimore. The management at once began investigating conditions in Baltimore, and were quickly covined that a first-class theatre in the "Monumental City" would be not only an asset to our people there, but would become a big money-maker from the very start. With that thought ever foremost, we began quietly looking for a suitable location for the theatre, and famally found what, in our opinion, is the best location for a colored theatre in the city. This site is on Pennsylvania Avenue between Lanvale Street and Lafayette Avenue. It is the desire of the company that the stock be distributed among a large number of investors, rather than be held by a few large buyers of securities, and for this reason the price of shares has been put at a price at which even the smallest investor may get in on this proposition. Colored theatres are no longer an experiment. In every city where a first-class theatre has been erected, success has attended the venture. The character of the performances which will come to the Douglass theatre will be of the same order as the attractions which have been playing in the Dunbar in Philadelphia and the Lafayette in New York with such wonderful success. Here is an opportunity for Baltimore colored people to cash in on the experience which has been gained in the operation of this now famous chain of colored theatres, which is constantly growing in number and importance throughout the country. The facts are here presented in a plain, simple manner. If you are interested in the development of the race along cultural lines, here is your opportunity to do your part in bringing about this condition. Invest in the Douglass Amusement Corporation stock, and help to make the Corporation a success and a distinct asset to the race. THE SITE—of this magnificent theatre (now in course of construction) is on Pennsylvania avenue between Lanvale street and Lafayette avenue, and is the best location for a building of this kind, anywhere in the city. THE GROUND was purchased for cash—there are no mortgages or ground rent—such is our faith in the possibilities of Baltimore as a theatrical money-maker and we have already commenced the building of the theatre. THIS THEATRE will cost four hundred thousand dollars($400,000) and will be as beautiful as the Dunbar Theatre in Philadelphia. THAT THE colored people of Baltimore may have the opportunity of having a theatre of their own, and at the same time share in the profits, we have organized the Douglass Amusement Corporation, incorporated under the laws of Maryland and Capitalized for $500,000. THE FACT that the Dunbar Theatre in Philadelphia under the same guidance has been able to pay a dividend of 8% during the first year of its operation should prove conclusively to anyone that this latest venture will pay handsome Dividends to the investor. IT SHOULD NOT be necessary to present any greater arguments in favor of purchasing this stock than the fact that the building is now being erected and the personnel of the management of the Corporation. IF YOU ARE interested in the Race to the extent of desiring a theatre or theatres where yourself or family can go freely and see the finest Broadway productions presented by capable artists, investment in the Douglass Stock will make this possible. IF YOU ARE interested most of all in the theatre THE RESPONSE which has come to the efforts of the Corporation thus far has been highly gratifying. Baltimore has rallied grandly to the idea of a theatre for our people and owned by our people. NOW IS THE TIME TO ACT! THIS ISSUE OF STOCK IS LIMITED Do not let tomorrow find you undecided what to do. Delay may mean another lost opportunity over which you may have many regrets. 1212 PENNSYLVANIA AVE Baltimore, Md. E. C. BROWN, President CLARKE L. SMITH, Vice President S. P. CHAMBERLAIN, Secretary ANDREW F. STEVENS, Treasurer EDGAR A. GUEST 7 CENTS IN BALTIMORE 10 CENTS ELSEWHERE Independent in All Things Neutral in Nothing The days are longer but skirts are the most. It has remained for a Negro to put the Bill Weevil out of business. Even some people in the South refuse to punch the famous Ku Klux Klan. What manner of things are done in thy name, O, "100 per cent American.!" Mr. Taft hasn't given us any advice for several weeks. Perhaps he has gone into training for the Chief Justiceship. Washington is the Capital of the District of Columbia and can be located on the map midway between New York City and the place where they kill "niggers" and throw their bodies into the nearest river. Edward Burwell of Philadelphia, drove 229 piles in one day and won the world's championship and Charles Knight drove 451 three quarter-inch rivets down at Sparrows Point, thereby winning the winning championship of the world. Delaware has brought back her old public whipping post as a crime deterrent. Why not not out the old stocks, pillory and pillowing too to finish the job. A Pennsylvania lawyer has found out a weapon against the "Third Degree." As soon as his client was arreced, he got out as injunction restraining the police from questioning the prisoner except, in the presence of his attorney. "SOUTHERN REPUBLICAN BREAK" Under the caption of "Break the Solid South" the New York Tribune recently published a letter from someone signing himself "Southern Republican," in which he argued that the elimination of the Negro from influence in Republican councils, in that section of the country would "cause many influential white men to flop over to the C.O. P. He asserts that the political unity of the white man in the South is due to the presence of the Negro as a factor in Republican councils, and that despite the fact that many whites there do not favor the national policies of the Democrats. They vote with that party, bearing the Negro. He says further: The future Southern policy of the Republican party-dictated by the highest considerations for the national welfare, to say nothing of its own best interests should be: "First— To recognize only the respectable white element in the South-found in the so-called Lily Whites in the distribution and in the councils of the party; and "Second— By giving assurance in action, and not in words only, as would be indicated by the first suggestions that the Southern people would have nothing to fear at the hands of the national Republican party in their local affairs in and in the handling of the grave Negro problem, which is now really national, though to them the greater and more immediate pressure." In other words, "Southern Republican argues that the national Republican party excludes disfranchisement, and "Jim Crow" and mob violence in that section of the country by entirely eliminating the Negro, and then, after the Lily Whites are in control of the party machinery Southern Democrats may divide on economic issues. The advice of former President Tart famously that no colored men be given jobs in the South by the Harding regime appears to have emboldened those who come from the section of the country where human rights are way below par. They are the ones who kicked against the selection of Henry Lincoln Johnson as national committeeman for Georgia, and may have inspired the 900 white male and female clerks in the office of the master of the Treasury to protest last fall against any colored man heading to dureau. Light years of Wilsonism, with its utter disregard of the rights of colored Americans, must not be followed by a regime of the same stripe, and colored men and women in the North and West must see to it that the Republican party does not approve the principles of the Democratic party in dealing with the Negro.

GUEST- O Mother dear, when I wgs but a child, How oft you gently stroked my tussled head With trembling fingers, tho you bravely smiled Your eyes were deep with bitter tears unshed. Do you remember how I used to wake From midnight slumber and beside me there I found you kneeling, and all for my sake Long hours were sacred with your fervent prayers? How swift the seasons pass on phantom wings Time roughly wakes us from a pleasant dream. Fair youth no longer tender lyric sings The Man must learn to lie, to cheat, to scheme. The child's true heart cannot believe it so But now,—I know. Aye, I have fought to keep my vision clear And held my own although the task was hard. For dauntless courage and a faith sheere Contempt, and envy is a world's reward. Yet deep within hope shines with steady glow Because—I know. Success is when you've done your level best And played the game and always played it square Then be content to leave with God the rest— Thus build your world and seek a refuge there. "TRUE, TRUE" AS BERT WILLIAMS WOULD SAY N. Y. Evening Globe The growth of Negro population in New York City from 97,000 in 1910 to 158,000 in 1920 indicates, perhaps, a preference for New York in place of Atlanta or Memphis or Baton Rouge. AFRICANS MUST HAVE MORE THAN ONE WIFE Mohammedans Point Out That Polygamy Is Sanctioned By The Bible (From The Nigerian, W. Africa Times) The Holy Quran the only Book of Islam says—Take in marriage such as please you. If ye fear that you cannot not equitable between them then one alone only. While Islam provides for the Polygamous life of Africa or Asia it does not forget to leave room for the Monogamous life of Europe The reason of this is not far to seek. While Christianity remains stranded in Africa in the throes of propaganda disabilities grumbling at the uncheckable self spreading of Islam and the unavoidable menace of Christianity. Islam is spreading as widely as ever. A religion which claims to be universal as the exponents of Christianity claim for it need not venture to restrict marriage to one wife. Is the crass shortsightness of the Church in trying to Preach Monogamy in Africa which stands as one of her greatest menaces? The respectable African Christians who hailed the Church as the Gateway to Heaven have found it impracticable to keep only one wife? What of those keen members of the Church who keep many wives beside the Church—married ones and support feed and cloth them? The Preachint of Monogamy in this part of the world has only breeded HYPROCRUSY. As far as Christianity is concerned it raises no objection to polygamy. In point of fact it teaches it. In the first place there is no passage in the Bible against it. Glancing at the history of the prophets that preached Christ even as recorded in the Bible itself we find that most of them led and consequently taught polygamous life. We heard of people having wives in fifties—nay in hundreds in the Bible. Thus if the predecessors of Christ taught polygamy and if Christ truly said as it is reported of him in the New Testament that 'I come not to destroy the law of the prophets but to fulfill, it follows as a necessary conclusion that Christ found no fault with polygamous marriage which was prevalent among his predecessors. THEY HAVE THE COMMUNITY SPIRIT (By The Associated Negro Press) (By The Associated Negro Press) The $50,000 hospital of the Supreme Royal Circle of Friends, a local colorful secret society, was dedicated in Little Rock Ark.

PET SHOE POLISH ON CHICK (By The Associated Negro Press) Dispatch from Mulberry, Kansas Mrs. George Brown resorted to camouflage successfully when one of her hens refused to adopt an incubator chicken. The hen-pecked little one, a fluffy white ball, was treated to a coat of black shoe polish and the foster mother then received it cordially. LYNCH LAW HARDING MURDER RAPINE LUST DESTRUCTION M. GOOD RICH. AMERICA HAS TWO YARDSTICKS There is no such thing as equal and exact justice for the colored man in the courts of the United States, and the peonage case in Georgia is a proof of it. From time to time colored lawyers, afraid of their legal shadows, and palpably attempting to curry favor with white judges have maintained in the press and in public addresses that the courts of the United States were fair in the administration of justice. We repeat that the courts of the United States are not fair, that they are positively unfair, and as proof of this assertion, we hold up the Williams case. Here is a white man indicted by the grand jury of Jasper County, Georgia for killing of thirteen colored men held as slaves on his farm. In a trial that lasted several days, and in which testimony of one eyewitness and many agents of the Department of Justice wove around him an unbreakable web of guilt, Williams, refused to be questioned, refused to make any statement, except "I am innocent, it is a question of my word against that of a "nigger's." In spite of this characteristic cracker attitude, the jury of all white men found Williams guilty, and unless he is allowed a motion for a new trial, he will be sentenced to life imprisonment. Note this: HERE IS A WHITE MAN, FOUND GUILTY OF MURDERING A NEGRO, WHOM HE HELD AS A SLAVE. IN DEFIANCE OF THE LAWS OF THE LAND. BY TYING A SACK OF ROCKS AROUND HIS BODY AND THROWING IT INTO THE YELLOW RIVER. Can any one imagine what this same all white jury would have done to a colored man who had held a white man in slavery and afterwards killed him by drowning. For the benefit of those whose imagination is poor here is what would have happened in Jasper County. DAILY PAPERS HAVING ANNOUNCED THAT A MOB WAS FORMING TO LYNCH THE MURDERER; SEVERAL HUNDRED UNMASKED WHITE MEN WOULD FORM IN FRONT OF THE COURT HOUSE, AND WITH THE POLICE ASSISTING, AND THE COURTS POWERLESS (?) THIS NEGRO WOULD BE TAKEN TO THE FRONT OF THE COURT HOUSE, TIED TO A HITCHING POST, BURNED TO DEATH, AND HIS BODY RIDDLED WITH BULLETS. This Williams case represents no isolated happening. Bets of two to one were made by "crackers" in Jasper County before the trial that the state would never hang a white man for killing a Negro. So long as a Negro is barred from our courts except as a criminal or as a lawyer, there is no way for him to get a square deal. Right here in Maryland two colored men have been hung this year for murder on circumstantial evidence, and then CLARENCE AND GRACE COUTRON, both white, ARE CONVICTED OF THE MURDER OF TWO COLORED MEN, WERE THEY HUNG? THEY WERE NOT. THEY WERE SENTENCED TO PRISON FOR A LIMITED TIME AND IN A FEW YEARS WILL PROBAELY BE PARDONED TO WALK THE STREETS LIKE THE REST OF US. Right here in Baltimore, a white man is fined by a judge $2 for shooting craps. A colored man before the same magistrate the same week pays $5. From the slightest infraction of the law up to murder or arson, the lawbreaker, who happens to be black gets the longer sentence. The Williams case ought to burn it into the soul of every Negro in the United States, that until the time comes that he can sit on the bench as a judge, until the time comes that HE CAN TAKE HIS PLACES IN THE JURY BOX AS A TALESMAN, until the time comes that he can be eligible to play some part in the police powers of the state, the administration of justice in the United States, North and South, is a travesty, an insult to any intelligence, a sin before God and man. GERMAN WOMAN RUINED BY WAR ASKS AID IN MONEY, FOOD OF CLOTHING To the Editor: necessity drives me to it. If you have trouble in writing in German write in English. I can read it but cannot write it. Sir I should be very thankful if I should receive anything, as the result of this Please pardon me if I burden you with a letter today. You remember us all still very well. I guess. We lived in 1914 in Jena. You told us with us and enjoyed our fare and we made excursions and long walks together. Then came the terrible war. I had to give up my boarding-house and, through the war, was deprived of any means of making a living. I am now here in Swinemede with my daughter. My son and son-in-law were made invalids through the war. My youngest daughter was a nurse also in the war. I suppose you knew all of my children. All of us have suffered. I suppose everything is going well with you, I now come to my request. I want to ask for a small contribution even if it is only a few dollars or any clothing cast aside by you and your wife. We can also use shoes, even if well worn, and I and my children will heartily thank you for all. A dollar is only a trifle to you Americans, but to us is our present condition is a great fortune. Pardon by begging but necessity drives me to it. If you have trouble in writing in German, write in English. I can read it but cannot write it. Sir I should be very thankful if I should receive anything as the result of this letter. A thousand thanks in advance MRS. G.

Amsterdam News We now have a Negro Traffic cop. His name is Ruthen Carter. He is guided to the job at Lenox avenue and 185th street. Meander by and take a look at him. We have seen some wonderful things since we came to New York in 1879, and they have mostly been made possible through Tammany Hall politicians. They have recognized the fact and made the most of it that a Negro vote counts for as much in an election as the vote of any other race type, and that when it has helped win the victory it was entitled to a decent showing in the division of the honors and emoluments of victory. The Republicans do not think any such thing in city, country or State government when they have the control of affairs. They have got to converted. A LETTER BOX FOR THE PEOPLE "READ A BOOK BY A COLORED AUTHOR WEEK" TO BE HELD APRIL 24 TO 30. To the Editor:— The Omega Psi Phi College Fraternity plans to conduct throughout the country, during the week of April 24-30, "a campaign for the Study of Negro Literature and History." The purpose of the campaign is to arouse and deepen an interest in literature of Negro authorship and encourage a closer study of the history of the Negro. The fraternity plans to work not only through its fifteen chapters, but through the leading colleges, high, school, Christian associations, literary organizations, and churches throughout the country. These organizations are being asked to lay especial emphasis on this matter during the week of the campaign, and to join heartily in such plans as may be suggested to them by those taking the initiative in the movement. BISHOP SMITH SAYS GARVITES HAVE NOT SAILED FOR AFRICA YET ON BOARD BLACK STAR LINE STEAMER To the Editor:— The initial statement in the article of Mr. Rollin Lyndie Hart, under the caption of "The Negro Moses," published in the Independent, (New York) February 26th, 1921, is a base fabrication and wholly misleading. The statement to which 1 refer, follows: "Fifteen pioneers of Africa Independence—Negro surveyors, Negro architects, Negro builders, Negro Chemists, Negro physicians—sailed recently from New York aboard Black Star Liners owned and operated by Negroes." The truth of this statement I challenge in a concrete manner, namely, I will donate a five hundred dollar $G bond of the Pennsylvania and Ohio Power and Light Company, dated November 1, 1920, and due November 1, 1929, with all, all copies attached, to the Nurse Training Department of the Lincoln Hospital, New York City. If any of the Carvey propaganda will adduce satisfaction evidence that "Fifteen pioneers of African Independence," including surveyors, architects, etc., within the last three years, on a steamer of the "Black Star Line," sailed from the port of New York, or any other port of the United States, for the Republic of Liberia, West Coast of Africa. The evidence required is: (a) the names and home addresses of said "Fifteen pioneers of African Independence." (b) the name of the ship on which they sailed. (c) the name of the port from which they sailed. (d) the date of their sailing. (c) An authenticated copy of the contract entered into between them and the Universal Negro Improvement Association to proceed to Liberia to follow their several vocations in doing pioneer work for said Association. The time for dailying is past. The situation has grown serious. For one, I am wary of the misrepresentations and audacity of Marcus Garvey and his co-propagandists. Signed, C. B.

To the Editor:— Some fifteen or sixteen years ago, when we were threatened in this state, with "disfranchisement", the Ump, Charles K. Donaparte, a friend of our race, was invited to present, and speak, at one of our public meetings, for a consideration of the question. Mr. Donaparte was hindered from coming, but agreeable to a promise made to me, he addressed to me a letter giving his counsel on the subject, which letter was read at the meeting. There was one paragraph in his letter, which, it seems to me, ought to be constantly borne in mind during the present times, in our agitation for full recognition as American citizens. We can not present our case too strongly, so long as we keep within the restrictions imbued by him. Said Mr. Donaparte. "I must own that I heard with anxiety of the intended meeting, for although a temperate and manly protest on your part against this legislation is eminently suitable, excited or illconsidered language might readily inflame the prejudices on which it advocates rely to secure its adoption by the General Assembly and ratification by popular vote. On this question you must appeal in last resort to the justice, patriotism, and sound sense of your white fellow citizens; irritating language or injudicious behavior must weaken the force of your appeal." In the above words Gen. Bonaparte has given us a standard guage for all of our public expressions, on the so-called race question, looking to a more just and equitable re-moulding of public opinion on our behalf. Those who assay to lead among us should read, mark, learn, and inwardly digest the words of wisdom of General Bonaparte. GEORGE F. BRAGG, Jr. DAD'S SLIPPER AND MAS HAIR BRUSH MORE EFFECTIVE THAN DELAWARE WHIPPING POST (By The Associated Negro Press) Whippings took place in the Delaware Jail recently where stands a twelve inch post to which the prisoners, in a standing position, are attached with shackles. Lewis was led to the post, stripped to the waist. Deputy Warden Leach read the sentence of one year imprisonment and twenty lashes for hurceng. One hundred visitors looked on as spectators. Lewis was shackled to the post. Warden Plummer applied the whip. At the end of the twentieth blow, Lewis looked around and smiled and asked, "is that all?" He was unshackled, his coat put on and led back to his cell. Next Leonard Bennett was tied up. He was sentenced to ten years' imprisonment and forty lashes for highway robbery. Bennett finched as the blows were laid on. John Richardson followed. He stood the first eleven blows without exhibiting any apparent emotion, but at the twelfth he began to squirm. From then to the fortieth lash Richardson twisted and stamped as the whip struck. (Readers Are Urgent To Send In Their Bits Of Fun For This Column E. H. "Did you go out to the races yesterday?

"Among the many cherished hopes for better things to come from the restored Republican power," the letter of protest declares, "is the hope of millions of Negro citizens that the Republican party will live up to its pretection platform promises to them of justice and a square deal." "The test of fitness for office should be character and ability, and these qualities should be recognized and rewarded, regardless of the racial identity of the individual. "Further, in this connection, Mr. President," the letter concludes, "knowing as we do the insidiousness of race prejudice and the way in which it is carried forward by propaganda, we have no hesitancy in saying that this petition, based solely on race prejudice, influence your action in the premises, it would not be long before you and Congress would be flooded with similar petitions protesting against the appointment of persons of color to positions in the government." The letter is signed by Archibald H. Grimke, president of the branch, and A. S. Pinkett, secretary. Whites here are still trying to stir up opposition against the appointment of a colored man as register, but no resignations among the white clerks in the office have been offered should a race man be manned.

AFRO SCRIBE SELECTS MYTHICAL ALL-CITY BASKETBALL TEAM Arrows Get Two Players. Morgan, Centennial And St. Mary's Each Get One On All Star Basketball Quintet By E. EVERETT LANE (Boys Lightweight) A real task has befallen the water in selecting all-city fives. Selborne arouse much interest in the sport in the general goal of criticism. Authorities in the various branches of Athletics have, erred as well as those less brilliant. The foregoing selections would apparently work with basketball precision. There has been an effort to names those players who can produce the highest type of the game. The season has brought forth a wealth of material. Each school and club have produced aggressive teams, at times capable of giving battle to the best. Sorrell and Mac Payne ranked head and shoulders above the other forwards. Both are clever floorman, and have been consistent scorers for their respective teams. J. Rich in center stood above his opponents all year and is therefore entitled to his favorite position. Coles of Centennial Seniors is selected as the first guard. His defense work is hard to excel. His floor work closely resembles that of Bluitt. Powell of St. Mary's one of those stick-to-the-man guards. He has played consistently all season. He is the second team Baker and Cooper's forwards form an all-around clever pair. Fletcher at center, is tall, a clever tap-off man and would work well with Baker and Cooper. Neale and Brooks guards are brilliant on the Norfolk Knocks Out Tasco York.

On the second team the forward positions go to Miss P. Penman and go to Brown of the Athenians. Miss Offutt of Morgan College at center and Missaines and Palmer of the Orioles and Athenians respectively at guard.

AFRO - AMERICAN OFFICE Honorable Mention HIGH SCHOOL PUTS OUT A TRACK TEAM HIGH SCHOOL PUTS OUT A TRACK TEAM Boys Expect To Make Good Showing In Spring Games By C. Pendleton On Friday the boys of the High School met in Druid Hill Park for their first work out since the fall season, which was closed by the Municipal Games. Prospects for the team this year are very bright and still better things are looked for. Among the new faces on the track team this year will be seen Harold Stepeau the marvel grammar school flash. Stepeau was first seen on the Track when he represented his school in the public school day meet and in the athletic exhibition. He runs in the eighty yard dash and relays in which many schools participated. From that time on he has been making a good record for himself and his school. Great interest was aroused in the field day games that were given by the P. A. L. when Edgar Lewis, the Carey St. School boy, was given a breath. Since then many school boy followers of these two boys have been anxious to have a titular tilt to see who, as they call it, is champion. Another new comer will be old William (Bo) Bailey. He will be a proffessor in the relay figure in the expectant to do some effective work. Race Fans Happy Tenny Rogers, the old Kentucky Fox, is in his element now, the ponies are running down at Bowie. He has tips on the races and says anyone who 'accepts one "can't' run." Bee Goodlow is waiting for a chance to make a winning with his nags and Governor Byrd was around Saratoga and Glimor Sts., displaying a little bankroll that he has. Then there is gentleman Bob Jackson who is on hand daily. Howard Enters Penn Relay. Howard University will send the following team to be entered in the Penn Relay Races to be held on Franklin Field, Philadelphia, Pa. under the auspices of the University of Pennsylvania, April 29th and 30th: H. K. Perry, L. J. Robinson, F. D. Williams and R. J. Fitzgerald, with R. Conte and F. Jones as substitutes. Perry, Williams, and Fitzgerald were members of the team representing Howard at the Penn Races held last year. The Howard University team will be entered in a class with Tufts, Carnegie Institute, Rochester, Hobart, Vermont and Bowdoin. Philadelphia, Pa., April 13—Albert Ringgold, Manager 3.

St. Mary's Hall will be the scence of a hot basketball battle Monday night. After weeks of dickering the managers the respective teams agreed to let their bosses night it out for the state championship. It looks like even money on the result and any bad breaks will go seriously against the guilty team. The Arrows appear to have a well balanced team and in Rich, Payne and Baker, they have a clever advanced combination, but St. Mary's has speed a plenty in Cooper, Powell and Brooks. The defense looks to be equal. Funky games will get under way promptly at 8 P. M. between St. Mary's Juniors and the High School Juniors. ATHENIAN GIRLS DOWNS HOWARD SCORE 21 TO 16 H. P. BENNETT & CO. 714 N. W. St. Dept. 20 Indianapolis, Ind. The Athenian Girls journeyed to Washington last Saturday afternoon and defeated the Howard University Girls in Minor Normal School Gym 21 to 16. The locals won because they played the game as it should be played politically the cleverest seen in D. C., in a long while, because the team possessed three speedy players in Misses Anthony, Parrot and Dohson and showed a real adeptness in foul shooting. The University young ladies outweighed the locals. Blanche Winston star-forward of the *Carlyles* captain of the Howard Team. Coach Laurence Hubert presented a new team with a leader Miss Winston and it worked to perfection. Miss Winston got away with two baskets one in each half. Helen Dobson was shifted to center and Elizabeth Anthony went to forward. Tiny "Edie" Johnson played the other forward position, and let it be said here, she is full of fight at all times. She was laughed at when she took her position, but played a hung-up young girl. Howard as first to score, making a field goal a few minutes after tap-off following in quick order with a foul shot. Here the locals tightened and played a supperbilt guarding game. Helen Dobson scored a field goal and shot two fouls. The first quarter ended 4 to 3 in favor of the guard who brought forth a defense that was imprenable on both sides, a field goal by the Washingtonians and a foul shot by the locals were at the points for the next ten minutes. The first half ended 5-5. Helen Dobson made all the points for the locals. Second Half A Thrilling In the second half for the most part it was a see-saw affair, first one team then the other forging to the front: "Peccan" Brown was sent in at forward. Tall Miss Boyd of Howard played cleverly for her team, half making two baskets, "She made half the teams' total points." Captain Louise Parrott came in for her share of the points by making four double deckers. Her dribbling and roving all over the field Anthony only made one basket during the game, but was the big gun in breaking up many of the Howard plays. Miss Patton at center for Howard played a fine game, the unable to score from the field, number of Athenian tries for goal. In the preliminary game the Sophs took the Freshies in camp to the tune of M to 7. Line-up: Howard Athenians Winston, (Capt.) F. Anthony Boyd K. Johnson Boyd G. Dohson Corby G. Capt.

James Tyson, pursued by a not get on by lynching him, is tracked by bloodhounds to the river and by walking in the water for a mile succeeded in throwing the hounds of his trail, temporarily, at least. CIIAPTER THREE The crisis passed. James, Tyson had not been seen underneath the bridge by the possse. Would he be seen? There he lay not fifteen feet from six armed men, each of whom, was eager to kill him. What if he shoots or succeeds? All would be lost. He had light in front of him and they had darkness behind them. Tyson now remembered having fired three shots from his revolver at the insulting street car conductor the previous night, leaving three not fired. "I can kill three of them," he reflected, but there will still be three to come. "This decided him most frusturing until he had been discovered. Of the six men, Tyson knew the Sheriff by name and sight and Joe Simpson, the grocer, Hell had know and done business with Simpson for several years and seemed surprised to see him in the searching party. "It would be to string up at Nigger," he said Simpson. "He's too prosperous for these years." This remark from Simpson went straight to Tyson's heart. He had known the grocer almost all his life. Years ago, when his mother sent him to buy groceries, Simpson would often give him a piece of cheddar candy, ask how he was getting along in school and tell him that he was as good as any boy in the neighborhood. Consequently, when he became a man, he thought of Simpson as one of the lawful blinded white men in Georgia. Now before his very eyes this same Simpson seemed more eager to take his life than any other member of the posse. "He'll never string me," thought Tyson, "I'll get him now." So quietly leveling his revolver on Simpson's head. Tyson would have killed him on the instant and not the little party moved from under the bridge before he could get his cold, clumsy fingers to pull the trigger. Mid stream a crew of men in two boats could be seen dragging the river, supposedly for his body, which stood almost brought a smile to his lips. But Tyson could not smile; could not move event; could hardly breathe. Truly, he was a living dead man. And—he was beginning to grow hungry. "I'll surrender to the next who pass," he said at length, but after this decision more came his way. The dragging of his gun too was left off late in the afternoon, leaving him all alone. Slowly the long day passed and darkness again, began settling over the truth. Meanwhile, in Crackerville, with the return of Sheriff Hicks and his posses, renewed effort was being made to find Tyson, dead or alive. They were inclined to believe that he was still alive and in hiding somewhere near the town. Scores, whatever, had come to them from plight already. The roads were still guarded and some of them felt it was only a question of hours before Tyson would turn. "That Nigger may have doublecrossed us and come back to the settlement," volunteered Abe Michachon, who operated a credit clothing store in Crackerville, and like Simpson, made his living largely from colored people. "What?" — screeched Sheriff Hicks. jumping up from his desk. "Then we'll search every nook and corner of the quarter, and if we find him we'll hang every dark in sight." "Detter wait until later on in the afternoon," advised Simpson, "say about ten o'clock. They'll be there." "All right," responded the Sheriff. "We'll meet here at ninety-thirty tonight. Get your guns and bring along all the gang, so we can make a good job of it if we have to." Toward nine o'clock Sheriff crawled out of his hole on his hands and knee, and dragging himself into the riverbank, put his into the dirty water to quench his thirst. The water, the first he had had in over twenty-four hours, was refreshing; so much so, that he found strength enough to pull himself up on his feet, all the while holding fast to the bridge support. He looked about him but the place was deserted. Not a sound did he hear, except the quiet rippling of the water as it was divided by the bridge pillar. He stepped step of two but found his joints were more stiff than they had been in the morning. "I must do something," he concluded. "I can never pass another night in that cold damp hole." So say, Tyson, aching in every muscle, cold and wet, walked and crawled in the bank and set down on the side of the hill. "All hope of escape was given up." "If I can make it out over the water, I'd drown myself. That would be better than being burned alive." So back on all fours he slowly crept out toward the centre of the bridge. Tyson was not got very for when he tried rummbling in the distance, which seemed to be coming towards him, on the road from the Potter's Field: In a moment or two he could make out the noise to be a horse and wagon, but same time he tried to chuck his speeled over the low spelling before it reached him, but could not make it. If anything, he moved more slowly. With a crash the horse and wagon struck the bridge. The driver seeing the slowly moving form on the bridge, was scared out of his wits. The bridge was too narrow on which to turn around, and the horse, traveling at a lively clip, brought him alongside the crouched form. Dropping the reins and bolting over the fuck of the wagon, the driver made ready to travel in any direc- tion, on foot, when he heard, or thought he heard the words: "I surrender," come from Tyson's lips. With fear and trembling, his heart in his mouth, the driver seeing that it was a live man and not a ghost, stopped short. Then, too, he did not wish to go back toward the Potter's Field; and the horse, wagon and the man, blocked his way to town and the house. "I surrender," came the faint voice again and this time there was no mistaking that it was a man's voice. Walking toward and bending over Tyson, the driver chokingly asked: "Lord have mercy! What you doin' way out here near de cemetery at this time of night?" Tyson did or could not speak. Raising his head and peering into his face, the driver exclaimed: The driver of the wagon, Fred Logan, worked for the colored underaker in Crackerville, and was returning from a trip to the Poet's Field. He knew Tyson well. Hastily opening the back of the death wagon he was driving, Logan lifted the near lifeless body of his friend, a man on toward the town. His employer's establishment was in the centre of the colored quarter of the city. At about the same time, the posse set out from the Sheriff's office to comb the colored settlement in quiet of Tyson. TO BE CONTINUED CONFEDERATE SECRET DIED WITH JONES Body Guard Of Jefferson Davis Never Told Where Seal Of Confederacy Is Hidden RECEIVED OFFERS Friends Of Both Causes Would Have Paid To Learn Hiding Place Washington, April 11—(Special) The funeral of James H. Jones, who died without revealing the place where the official seal of the Confederate States was hidden, was held at Lincoln Congregational Temple Sunday. The body was taken to his old home in Taleigh, N. C. for interment. He died last Thursday at the home of his son, Dr. Willis W. Jones, 53th and Dix street, northeast. Mr. Jones, who was in the nineteenth year of his age, was born in Warren county, N. C. He served as a bodyguard to Jefferson Davis, president of the Confederacy. He is said to have warned Davis of his impeaching captures by Union forces and that Davis told him never to reveal the hiding place of the seal. He resisted tempting offers to do so and the secret died with him. After the war he filled minor municipal places in Fateigh and also headed a fire company there. He came to this city in 1893, when former Congressman William Ruffin Cox, of North Carolina, who was selected secretary of the Senate in 1893, named him as a messenger. He held this and similar positions until recently. Progress On Sho' C. M. H. Johnson, state agent of the North Carolina Mutula Life Insurance Company, who has just returned from a visit to Easton, Berlin, Salisbury and other points on the Eastern Shore, says he noted progress in each place he visited. He says that several new business enterprises have been started in Salisbury, and that other places visited indicate growth along thrift and business lines.

"I expect that a meeting will be called at La Plata soon at which the question of naming a colored man for the Legislature will be thoroughly gone over. The colored voters are in the majority in Charles county, but the whites have always been nominated for the offices." Mr. Thomas told a representative of the AFRO-AMERICAN. "We have been led in the past by those also who were not mindful of the best interests of the race, but looked only to their solitary purposes.

I was slick for years. As a white man it was natural for me to go to white doctors. And I went to the best in Baltimore. One said/ one thing, and another said something else about my illness. I tried hospitals. They did me no-good, and I grew worse all the time. A friend he had cured recommended me toarry Dr. David N. E. McCormick the Lung and Care Specialist, 1369 North Grey Street. At first I hesitated, but I finally went to thim. After examining me he laughed and said he was gorry for me. He told me things about my complaint no other physician had ever touched upon. He has treated me and made practically a new man out of me. I am now a street car conductor. Since then, he has cured my friend's four years, son Harry, who had convalesced and could scarcely walk. The child now has no more spasms, and is running about. The parents are delighted and think Dr. Campbell, one out of hundreds. He has done me wonders, and I am not afraid to tell it. THOMAS A. W.

First determine the aspect dimensions of the available land, then ascertain which parts of the garden will be best adapted to certain crops, especially those that require a large amount of sunshine. Outline the garden plan on paper and sketch in the crops that are to be planted upon each part. In planning the garden it should be borne in mind that certain crops, such as lettuce, radishes, and early beets, can frequently be grown in the same rows with other crops and be removed before planting, in order to much smaller size to require the entire. It should also be remembered that carrots, beets, salify, early turnips, parsnips, and all crops of that type may be grown in rows 12 to 18 inches apart and will occupy a comparatively small amount of space if grouped together. The carrots, beets, parsnips, and all beans, tomatoes trained to stakes, and sweet corn, should be planted at one side of the garden where they will not shade the smaller crops. Arrange Rows for Convenience It is generally conceded that the rows should run north and south because the plants need ant to arrange the rows for convenience of cultivation than for exposure to the sunshine. Due consideration should be given to both companion and succession cropping. By companion cropping, the plan of planting two or more crops together and remove those that mature but are followed. By successive cropping one crop follows another, keeping the land fully occupied all the time. Thus, early cabbage may be followed by celery or late tomatoes; early corn or early Irish potatoes may be followed by turkeys, late beans, late beans, late tomatoes, late corn, or assignment of crops, however depends somewhat upon the locality and length of the season. Detailed directions for locating and planning gardens are contain in free bulletins of the United States Department of Agriculture, which will be sent upon application to the department. J.

Church, Druid Hill avenue and Lanvale street, Friday evening, April 15. The present location of the school at Pennsylvania avenue and Dolphin street has long been regarded as inadequate to the needs of the institution.

The auditorium of Sharp street Memorial M. E. Church is being used for assembly purposes and instruction in music is also given at the church. The February classes from the eighth grades greatly overtaxed the already overcrowded quarters. A committee of citizens, headed by E. B. Taylor, is planning for the meeting this Friday night. The committee points out that present facilities are grossly inadequate that the school survey urges a modern building and the present municipal administration is on record in favor of modern quarters.

THE BAND GIRL HIT BY AUTO TEARS FIRE PLUG LOOSE NEW YORKERS HERE WILLIAM H. A large and representative audience heard Mr. Stello, Tenor singer, formerly with the Metropolitan and Chiu Chiu Chow Operatic Company in a musical recital at Sharp Street church last Thursday evening. The coming of Mr. Stello had been looked forward to with keen and pleasant expectancy on the part of local music-lovers, and as a result an unusually large and representative audience was present. Mr. Stello, is a young man of slight physique, who like his name circumflex resembles the Italian race. Of small stature, naturally, Mr. Stellio's voice, even for a tenor's, is not as robust as is customarily demanded on the part of a good many concertgoers, thus there was a noticeable juck of appreciation at the beginning, but there was a growing response, each succeeding in finally culminating something very near unanimous enthusiasm. Mr. Sicilio is best described as a lyric tenor, thus he made his greatest appeal in he lighter songs and musical fragments. In these he was the consummate artist. His operatic numbers were sung in their native Italian, but in the earlier of these the singer experienced some difficulty in keeping on the key. I lost of these however.—the La Don a Mobile—he rose to unmissably appreciative heights. He has a splendid stage presence, and his enunciation and phrasing both in English and Italian are at all times a delight, even in his sotto voce singing, at which latter he is suerb. A good measure of credit for the singer's success must be given to Mr. Theodore Dury the veteran artistic impresario, who proved an accomplished and sympathetic accompanist. The choir under the skillful handling of his directress Mrs. Annie Jazelton Lee, acquitted itself in the highly capable manner that it always does.

Al Major is a magician of merit, and demonstrated some good tricks. Busby's song on the high cost of food set the audience rocking in their seats while his monologue on woman "knocked them off." Burton and Jones worked hard but missed fire, they lacked the "punch."

WHITES FOUGHT TO TEACH IN CITY SCHOOLS History Of Baltimore Colored Schools Shows Legislation Was Needed To Remove Them APRIL 10 CELEBRATED Marks Twenty-fifth Anniversary Of Colored Teachers In Colored Schools Just twenty-five years on April 10, Mayor Aleaes Hooper signed the ordinance providing for the gradual elimination of white teachers from colored schools. In the late Sixties the few colored public schools had colored facies, whites supplanted them, however. Following the Annexation Act of 1888, the late Hiram Watty, the late Rev. Dr. W. H. Weaver, and others got the City Council to pass an ordinance providing that all colored schools hereafter established should have colored facies. When School No. 9 was established and a new building erected therefore at Carrollion and Riggs avenues in 1889, George W. Biddle, now head of the school on Argyle avenue, and Miss Fannie L. Barbour, now a teacher in the Colored High School, were appointed principals of the male and female departments, respectively. Their assistants were members of the first graduating class of the High School, that of 1889, and some who had taught in county schools that came into the city under the annexation act of 1888. The next school to be established was the old Colored Polytechnic Institute, but when its doors were opened in September, 1892, a white faculty was installed. The School Board making the claim that it could not secure colored teachers therefore. Graduates from the Colored High School only secured positions through deaths or resignations for several years thereafter. The late J. Marcus Cargill, who was elected to the First Branch City Council from the old 11th ward in 1895, fostered the ordinance which provided for the gradual elimination of white teachers. White teachers lobbied against the bill, and the late Michael E. Brennan, a democratic member of the City Council from East Baltimore, succeeded in persuading a Republican City Council to pass an amended ordinance, which provided that white faculties could only be turned out off-colored schools when sufficient vacancies existed for them in white schools. Dr. Cargill also had an ordinance passed which separated the High School from old Grammar School No. 1. In 1896 a colored faculty was installed in the Girard avenue school, with the late Heber E. Wharton as principal. Very little progress was made in appointing colored faculties, until after the School Board named by Mayor Hayes, consolidated the Colored High School and the Colored Polytechnic Institute in 1901, installing a colored faculty therein. The whites raised a howt about this. When Dr. James H. N. Waring was appointed principal of the High School in 1903, the elimination of white teachers from colored schools began, and today nearly 300 colored teachers look after the educational interests look after the educational interests of the race in this city.

West, Superintendent of Public Schools, school principals throughout the city have been asked to form two or more base ball clubs in each school for the Afro Baseball League. The base, ball tournament is, for elementary schools only, and will be for boys who are unlimited as to weight. In his letter to the principals, Dr. William Bardick, head of the Public Athletic League which is directing the games, suggests that twenty boys be named for a team, and that each principal enter one or more teams. Knowing that base ball is one of the best games for school children, and that the training received will be helpful in later life, a number of the principals have taken enthusiastically to the league idea, and officials of the Public Athletic League will be sent to help them begin a league if they desire. Instructions governing games call for regulation rules and base ball. A game to contest must be four more innings and nine innings will be played unless otherwise agreed upon by both captains. A team must present a lineup of nine men to claim a game by forfeit. Games will be scheduled on the double elimination bases and the championship team will receive a regular Public Athletic League pennant. Of course the League cannot make out the schedule for the games or announce the Duel IIld Park dates until all the teams are entered. Principals are being asked to send in the names of two teams of twenty boys each before next Saturday, so that play can be begun promptly on Thursday, May 5th. Takes Issue With Report Mr. Daniel F. Earle, 2416 Oak street, takes issue with the story published in last week's issue of the AFPRO-AMERICAN. "The account," he writes, "easts a bad reflection on my dead wife and on the present one (Mrs. Mary E. Wyatt). All I asked the clerk was that, should anything happen to disappoint me, would my money be returned, and he said yes, if I handed in the license not later than four o'clock on the day I got it." W.
