Mrs. Samuels beat off the intruder and a fight was started. Police were quickly summoned and the marines marched off to the barracks.

Paul Douglass Writing In Nation Tells Of High Handed Rule Of United States Marines EDITOR BANISHED Dominican Newspaperman Had Printed Picture Of Branded Colored Man New York, May 2. (Special) Natives of San Domingo will never be satisfied until the U. S. withdraws its marines from the island, according to a letter by Paul Douglass printed in yesterday's issue of the New York Nation. Mr. Douglass who spent some time on the island declares that he has not seen a single Dominican who does not want the American out bay and baggage. The marines with whom he came in contact, told him that they treated natives as they pleased, and if they wanted a pig or a turkey they took it and if they wanted fruit or vegetables they took thine. Two American captains, commanders of Dominican ports according to Mr. Douglass spent most of the time eating and making themselves drunk. There are no prohibition laws in San Domingo. Explaining why the natives dare not protest too strongly, Mr. Douglass declares one week in November Horacio Blanco Fombona published on the front page of his review Letras, a photograph of a Dominican whose chest had been fearfully seared by American soldiers, using Belgian-Congo, or Prussian-Belgian, methods of chelting information. At all once, the office of Letras was invaded by armed soldiers and closed up, and Mr. Fombona got free board and lodging in prison at Dominican expense. And test anyone should enter the establishment of Letras, an armed sentry—armed with a high-power rifle—was sent to pace before it, night and day—at Dominican expense. Several weeks later Mr. Fombona was let out with a fine and a couple of weeks to clear out THE AFRO AMERICAN Frederick, Mc, May 4. — Kermit E.

HERBS of LIFE FOR TIRED PEOPLE FRENCH DISDAIN PROTEST AGAINST NEGRO TROOPS Colored Infantry And Cavalry Among First French Forces To Threaten ACTION SIGNIFICANT Sentiment Here That France Will Not Listen To Mrs. Britten Or Pro-Germans New York, May 3.—Disregarding the fact that Mrs. Fred A. Britton, white, wife of the Illinois representative in Congress is on her way to France to protest to Marshal Foch against the retention of African troops in Germany, advises have been received here from French Military headquarters in Mayence, Germany that one division of black Moroccan Infantry and one division of Calvary is now in Duesseldorf, Germany. It is understood that these troops will be the first to be sent to Ruhr Valley in case Germany decides not to meet the terms of the Peace Treaty. Action of the French Government in continuing to use colored troops in Germany indicates that they have little regard for the protest that Mrs. Britten is to make or that other Pro-German forces have stirred up in this country. It is expected that Mrs. Britten will be courteously received on the other side but that the French military policy will not be changed.

FRIDAY, MAY 6, 1921 IKE LEW ONORED BY DECIDE OW WEST INDIANS FI --POLICE GUARD IKE LE ONORED BY DECIDE OW WEST INDIANS FI --POLICE GUARD Extraordinary riots and violence characterized the shipping strike on the local waterfront Tuesday when colored and white men belonging to the crews of the cattle ships Western King and Des Moines Bridge were taken off by strikers in launches, and landed at the foot of Broadway where they were mobbed by a crowd of 500 foreigners. When marine workers, most of whom are foreigners, went out on a strike this week, on account of the 20 per cent reduction in wages ordered by the U. S. Shipping Board, the Baltimore Steamship Company, owners of the two steamers employed non union men, many of whom were colored West Indians. Both ships were about ready to sail for Europe laden with cattle, when the strikers swooped down in launches, overpowered the crews and brought them to the Fells Point wharf in launches. A crowd of over five hundred strikers awaited them there and spectators standing on board; the excursion steamer Starlight moored at the wharf saw a rush for the colored men in the effort to beat them up. Ernest Ferrett, 2316 Pennsylvania avenue and Samuel Brown, 1046, Shields. Alloy were among those who received serious injuries and were treated at local hospitals. White strike breakers were not disturbed. Spectators declare that one giant colored man knocked down at least a dozen of the foreigners with his fists receiving in turn serious wounds from knives in the hands of some of them. During this main fight many of the other strikebreakers escaped. RADICAL LETT SIEZE CAL LETTERS SIEZED II RADICAL LETTERS SIEZED IN N.Y. RAID Communist Missives addressed To Dr. Dubois, Finley Wilson and W. I. Porter Uncovered In Raid New York, May 3—In the series of raids conducted by local police and the Service Service meet the Communist party leaders, letters were found addressed to Dr. W. E. DuBois, editor of the Crisis; Mrs. Grace Campbell, 266 133rd street; J. Finley Wilson, editor of the Washington Eagle and W. L. Porter, editor of the Knoxville, News. The letters were in a mass of literature seized on Bleecker St., and were signed by "W. W." The literature contained the inner secrets of the party, and looked like an attempt to do proselyting work among the race. While police known as a radical upon the race question, it is generally believed that Dr. Dubois is not a convert to the principles of the underground party. Mrs. Campbell, who was a Socialist candidate for the Legislature last fall, says she knows on reason why the radical leaders should address a letter to her. "The Communist party is a secret organization," she said. "It can gain little headway trying to runke converts among colored people." Is been Wanting For Here At Last ST, MR, W: H.

No police were present during the riot, which led steamship heads to wire Washington for assistance and to call upon Governor Ritchie for the state police or national guards. In the absence of Commissioner Gaither, Marshal Henry threw a number of extra police around ships in the harbor and on the waterfront. Crowds of men frequented the offices of the various marine unions until late Tuesday night and all day Wednesday. The Fells Point Market was also crowded with strikers seeking shelter from the cold rain. At the Engineers' Headquarters at the foot of Broadway, a representative of the AFRO-AMERICAN was informed that colored men also were members of the striking unions and had gone out with the others. At the Watertenders and Oilers' Union Wednesday afternoon, the first floor was crowded with striking foreigners. The secretary of the Union was out, but one of the officials declared that only colored Portuguese were members there. He admitted that some of the oilers formed a part of the crowd that pulled strike-breakers off the twoships on Tuesday. Steamship officials say that violence will not deter them from manning ships with other non union men. Petersburg, Va., May 3—Henry Jones, his wife and family declared they got religion.

STOW GEORG SHIP OF WHO WILL GET $10.000.000 IN OIL LANDS Suit In New Orleans Court Of Appeals To Determine Whether Man or Woman Is Millionaire WOMAN FAVORED State Supreme Court Has Already Decided That Mrs. Taylor Is Owner New Orleans, La., May 6. According to the way in which the Circuit Court of Appeals decides Mrs. Lillie Gussie Taylor of Dallas, Texas, or George West of Claiborne Parish near here, will get possession of oil lands in the Homer field worth $10,000,000. Twenty years ago, Mrs. Taylor inherited it from her parents. When she abandoned it as worthless, West took possession, and paid taxes on it. Upon this basis he maintains his claim to the ground, which he has leased to the Gulf Refining Company, which has already taken oil worth five million dollars from wells drilled on the property. While the contest is nominally between Mrs. Taylor and West for the ownership of the property, in the back ground is the legal struggle between two great oil concerns for possession. The Caddo Central Oil Company has obtained a lease from Mrs. Taylor and is trying to wrest control from the Gulf Refining Company. The State Supreme Court decided last week, that Mrs. Taylor is the legal owner of the property, and that she must be reimbursed for the oil already obtained. This was a blow to the Gulf Company, which immediately appealed for West to the Circuit Court of Appeals where the case now rests. It may eventually go to the United States Supreme Court. Mrs. Taylor lives at present in poverty doing day's work for a living. Under arrangement made with her attorneys they will receive one half of the estate should she win. 29 LYNCHINGS THIS YEAR Camilla, Ga., May 3—Jim Roland, lynched because he shot a white man who wanted to make him buck dance.

Jones Lost His Temper When Witness In Court Called Him FLINGS FILING STAMP Missile Misses Mark And Bailiffs Have Trouble In Getting Quiet Washington, May 4.—Thomas L. Jones, well known criminal lawyer, has had many a stormy time in Police Court, but probably the stormiest of his career was when he picked up a three-pound filing stamp from the clerk's desk in the United States branch Monday and hurled it at the head of Samuel Smith, who was testifying against his client, Nettie Foster. The irie of Attorney Jones was aroused when Smith called him a "soundrel." The missile missed Smith's head by a narrow margin, and Mr. Jones, angry clear through advanced menacing toward him. A bailiff grabbed the attorney and Marshal Suckey took charge of Smith. The courtroom was in an uproar by this time. Attorney Jones hastily apologized to Judge Hardison, but the latter refused to accept his apology. Both men were committed to the District Jail for twelve hours on a contempt charge. Nettie Foster had been arrested on a threat charge preferred by Mrs. Hattie Thomas. The complainant fainted during the uproar, but was quickly revived.

A. Mr. Hayes has been in London since last May giving recitals in the big theatres and concert halls in the city. Sometimes ago he sang before his Majesty and the Queen and so charmed the court that he was invited last week to appear before them. He sang a number of America's spirituals like "Deep River" "Go down Moses," "He Stood on the River of Jordan" as arranged by H. T. Burleigh, "Who Knows" a song with words by Paul Lawrence Dunbar and Coleridge Taylor's great masterpiece, "Onaway Awake Beloved." At the conclusion of the program King George himself is said to have held the pin in Mr. Hayes' hand as a token of his appreciation. Roland Hayes was born in Curry, Georgia, about 38 years ago, and is a graduate of Fisk University and Boston Musical Conservatories. He is now enroute to Africa to compare Negro songs at their source with the spirituals as they sung in America. Success of Mr. Hayes in the concert halls caused the Victor Phonograph Co. to make him an offer to produce operatic records sung by him.

JAMES SOCIETY TRULY HATCHETT WILL RUN FOR LEGISLATURE Friends Announce Him As One Of Candidates From Third District In Fall POLITICS BUZZING Candidates For Legislature In 4th District And Ward Committeemen Begin Work [Picture of a man in a suit]. TRULY HATCHETT Friends of Truly Hatchett, member of the banking firm of Hatchett and Lewis and real estate promoter, have announced that he will be candidate for one of the Republican nominations for the Legislature from the Third District subject to the Republican primaries. Mr. Hatchett lives at 2026 Dreadd Hill avenue, in the 14th ward, and is well known in business and fraternal circles. He was educated in the old Colored Polytechnic Institute and the Colored High fourth Ward have said that they are going to get solidly behind David R. Robinson as one of the six Republican candidates for the House of Delegates from the Fourth District, there are some boud from voters in the South Baltimore section of the district that they should be consulted. "We are for a colored man for the legislature," said one, "but think 14th Ward leaders should seek on cooperation in trying to get over a member of the race." "There are many colored voters down this way," said Garfield Lawson, 542 W. West street. "We are interested in a colored candidate as much as the folk uptown, but think we should be consulted." Charles E. Hall, Republican committeeman in the 17th Ward, says he is looking for 1$ competent women to act as election judges. He also has the bee in his hoop to run again for his present position. John Badger has received many offers of support for the committeemanship. Friends of William L. Gibson are backing him to oppose Harry G. Hopper, the white committeeman in the 5th Ward. According to downtown gossip, Controller Tome, who could only find several jobs in public comfort and for colored people, is desirous of being the Republican candidate for mayor in 1923. Walter S. Emerson, the Republican committeeman in the 14th Ward, will most likely be a candidate for reelection. It is rumored that John H. Goldsborough may run against him. IMPLICATED WITH AUTO JACKS Westminster, Md., May 21 James Prettyman, of Sykesville, will be tried at the next session of the county court on a charge of riding two auto jacks who stole Higerstown cars.

Try Segregation Roanoke, Va.. May 4.—In the effort to get colored people to agree not to purchase property in white sections, a committee appo- nied by the city council met with 12 colored persons Monday night. The Associated Negro Press Memphis. Tenn. May 3.—There has been a real sensation here in local politics. The "Lily White" Republicans have been given the shock of their lives. By some "hook or crook," in the absence of Postmaster General Will Hays from his office in Washington. First Assistant-Postmaster General Work took upon himself the authority of naming the temporary postmaster of Memphis. The "Lily White" postmaster was on his way from Washington feeling happy, when a telegram from Washington preceded him, telling the present postmaster the appointment had been held up. Wires and long distance telephones followed. R. R. Church, now in Washington, is regarded, as back of the recall and is being severely criticised by local white papers. The Third Studio Opened At The Baltimore School Of Music Some years ago this institution opened with ten pupils in a small studio, backed by good will, ambition, determination, musical ability and faithful friends. Today it is difficult to grasp the significance of its continual growth. Since that time over five hundred applicants have received musical training in the different departments and quite a few are filling responsible positions in the musical world. Not only in this city, but in others as well, wherever they have been called to labor, One or two may be assigned to the Baltimore School of Music, but, have become a credit to the race. About a year ago the principal, Mrs. Lottie A. Peterson used her experience of nineteen years and outlined a three month course, which proved to be valuable that the results have been the opening of the two extra studios in six month. Five assistant teachers and one substitute have been added, and the third studio which was opened April 19, was the most direct result of the course. It is a very interesting feature to observe a pupil enter today who know nothing about his instrument and absolutely nothing about music, then, in three months time hear them play several of their favorite tunes. It sounds on most instruments on the day. And the teachers only enjoy watching this de- scientious, whose neared spite. The success of the scramble boat, the telegraph, the radio, the amphibious was doubted by many and even scouted at in the beginning; the same may be said of the Baltimore School of Music in its struggling infancy; but whenever a utility or an institution establishes itself in spite of unfavorable opinion, its value to humanity has been proved behind a doubt. New York, May 3—Federal Judge Mack appointed James N. Rosenberg, white, receiver of the Haitian American Corporation, an equity action for $10,000,000, based in Indiana corporation last Saturday. The defendant is a $10,000,000 corporation, controlled by whites, and is said to have acquired utility plants, plantations and sugar cane. Haiti since country has practically taken charge of the affairs of the little republic. The liabilities are estimated at $100,000. TOWSON Towson, Md. May 4—A very good attendance was at Mt.

NOW ulcer CONSIUCLIOR OL FEMS Valle arte ee ee ‘When the Half-Miilion Dollar Dunbar Theatre at Broad and Lorabard ‘Streets, Philadelphia, opened last December, several of. Baltimore's prominent citizens were present. : : ‘All of them were very lavish {n 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 « duplicate of. the Dunbar Theatre be built in the City of Baltimore. ‘The management at once began investigating conditions in Baltimore, and mee quickly covinced that a first-class theatre in the “Monumental City” would be not on! iy 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 fanally found what, In our opinion, is the best location far a colored theatre in the city. This site is on Pennsylvania Avenue between Lanvale Btreet 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 bas 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 Durbar 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 bas 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 her> presented in a plain, simple manner. If you are interested In the development of the race along cultural Mnes, here is your opportunity to do vour 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) {s on Pennsy- Ivaina avenue between Lanvale street and Lafayette avenue. and {is the best lo- __ cation for a billding of this kind, anywhere in the elty. _— HE 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 bullding of the theatre, THIS THEATRE will cost four hundred thovsand dollars($400,009) and will be os _ deautiful as the Dunbar Theatre in Philadelphia. THAT THE colored people of Baltimore may have the opportunity of having a theatre of thelr own, and at the same time share in the profits, we have organized the Douglass Amusement Corporation, iccorporated under the laws of Maryland and Capitalized for $500,000. : "THE FAP that the Dunbar Theatre in Philadelphia under the same guldance has been able ‘to pay # dividend of 8% during the first yearof {ts operation should re ecusealy to anyone that this latest venture will pay handsome Dividends @ {nvestor. IP SHOULD NOT be necessary'to present any greater arguments in favor of purchas- ing this stook than the fact that the building is now being erected and the personnel of the managment 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 pre- sented by capable artists, investment in the Douglass Stock will make this possible. IF YOU ARE interested most of all tn putting your money in @ safe, sound invest- x meut, which will pay big returns in dividends, and constantly Increase in value, . then here is the safest, surest investment offered to the colored people of any city. THE RESPONSE which has come to the efforts of the Corporation thus far has bees highly ‘gratifying. Baltimore hag rallied grandly to the idea of a thestre for our people and owned by our people, : NOW IS THE TIME TO ACT !

Dunbar High Also Wins Place Philadelphia, Pa., May 3.—Clover performances by colored athletes featured the twenty-seventh annual relay carnival finals of the University of Pennsylvania staged on Franklin Field in Philadelphia last Saturday afternoon. The track was very sloppy at the start, but dried off well when the rain stopped falling. As a consequence, no great record-breaking teams were performed. Interest centered in the one-mile college relays and the 100 yard dash. Last year, Howard and Lincolne were among the also runs, but this year showed high glass training. For three-quarters of the distance the Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute and Carnegie Tech teams were fighting neck and neck for the honors. Perry, Weddener and K. Contee, the first three Howard munies, were unable to keep up the fast pace. But in the last quarter mile Lee Robinson made a sensational race from the crack of the pistol, and racing to the leading position, fought off his rivals down the grutch, and managed to win by a yard. Lincoln's relay team composed of Carr, Hallstock, Cannon and Brunch while it did not measure up to Howard's time was able to win with 15 yards to spare. Hallstock showed himself a heady runner at all times, pulling away from his Washington rival in a beautiful race down home stretch. George Washington University ran second, Gallandet, third and Jimmie fourth. Time 3 minutes 38 1-5 seconds. GOURDIN TAKES THIRD HEAT IN CENTURY Ned Gourdin, the old Harvard warrior, faced the pick of the american sprinters in the 100 yard dutch, that is with the exception of Charles Paddock, the Pacific Coast flyer. Gourdin won his trial Kelly, of Carnegie Institute, was second. Gourdin's time was 19.2 seconds. The finals brought a class field with LeConey of Lafayette and Gourdin looming up as winners. The finish was so close that the judges were forced to make two announcements as to the placing of the men. Farrell of Brooklyn, was decided upon as the winner. He ran second to LeConey in the first heat. Gourdin was placed fourth, Paulin of Grimnell was placed second and LeConey third. All four runners were inches apart in crossing the line. J. Carter, Brown University's flash, was entered in the first heat and finished third. He completed in the fastest field. Gerald Allen on the University of Pitt's relay team in class E ran a beautiful race. Skipping ten yards ahead of his man. GOURDIN WINS BROAD JUMP Ned Gourdin won the bread jump by half an inch from P. Courtside of New York University. Gourdin's jump was 23 ft. 10 1-2 in. C. A. Way of Penn State, was tilted with a jump of 22 ft. 3 1-4 HILBURNE SECOND IN SHOT. PUT Shelburne, Dartmouth's big all- round athlete was pitted against some clever throwers of the weight. First one then the other would forge to the front which made the final throw exciting as to the probable winner. E.

Shelburne second, 42 ft. 7 in.; C. Halsey, Princeton third, 42 ft. 4 1-4 in. DUNBAR THIRD IN RELAY Dunbar High of Washington, was pitied against some of the best high school relay teams in this vicinity. The boys were confident they would make a creditable showing. The field was close at all times and Dunbar barely missed second place. McKinley Tech of Washington, finished behind Dunbar. The race was won by West Philadelphia High. Second, Landsdale. Time: 3 min. $3 3-5 sec. This time was 2-5 of a second behind Lincoln's time which shows the field was fast. The Ironsides team from Bordentown, N. J., won a mile relay for high schools leading the field by 20 yards. EASTON WINS SCHOOL MEET Easton, Md., April 27.—The track and field meet of public schools of Talbot County was held Tuesday here.

Arrow points to Madden of Grammar School 118, who took a 220 yard handicap and defeated the pick of the High School Track Team over a two and one half mile course. PENDLETON SECOND Handicap of 220 Yards Was Too Much For The High School Runner A dark horse won the High School 2 3/4 mile Jarathon, contrary to the dope last Monday afternoon, in the person of Albert Madden of School L18. His time was 15 min. 7 see. There were fifteen entries. The run was staged under the auspices of the Public Athletic League sanctioned by the South Atlantic Athletic Association. The P. A. L. gave the six or seven elementary school lads who entered a start of 220 yards over their older high school opponents. The start got under way about 3:40 from Columbus monument in Draud Hill Park. By the time the park entrance had been reached, George Pendleton was abreast Madden. The two had a merry battle for first place honors throughout the remainder of the course, first one then the other forging to the front. George was handicapped by a cramped leg which bothered him considerably in the latter stage of the race. Madden, a tall grammar school boy, ran like a veteran and came in 15 yards ahead of George who finished second. Third place honors went to Ferris Holland of Morgan Academy and Clarence Pendleton raced across the finishing line. fourth. Gaither Brooks of the High School was fifth. The High School won the team trophy, having six men to finish in the first twelve, placing second; fourth, fifth tenth, eleventh and twelfth. Medals were given to the first twelve.

They will play the strong Pennsylvania Eagles, next week.

UPPER MARLBORO Den Ponteau of New York City, the colored American National 135 pound champion, successfully defended his title against the Canadian champ in the international tournament held in Toronto last week.

The League will have eight eighteen, four white and four colored. Shaw University seems to have a clever baseball nine. The team has always been fortunate in having demon sluggers.

Interest In Caroline Denton, May 4.—Keen interest is being manifested in the athletic events that will be held here by the pupils of the colored schools of Caroline County next Saturday. C. L.

Norfolk weighed 180 1-4 lbs., and his opponent 175 lbs. Jamaica Kid appeared willing enough to mix-up the fighting and on one occasion stunned Norfolk with a right to the jaw. Norfolk had the advantage of every round, however, and won the light by greater aggressiveness. This is Norfolk's third victory over Jamaica Kid recently having beaten him two years ago in Philadelphia in 6 rounds and last year in Baltimore in 15 rounds. There seem to be contradictory reports concerning Kid Norfolk's joining Dempsey's training camp. Leo P. Flynn, manager for Norfolk, denies the report and says Norfolk will be the next logical opponent for the heavy-weight championship. Indeed, there were some sports who said after the Dempsey-Brennan fight that Norfolk could have beaten the champion that night. "I am the bantam champion of the South and I am willing to beat anyone in the world under 116 lbs." There he was the way Young Woll, 134, Hamburg St., issues his challenge for a fight. Young Wells has been in a number of lights around Baltimore, Atlantic City, Washington and New York and has 16 knockouts to his credit. At present Wells is without a manager and as soon as he locates one, hopes to enter the ring.

THE SCHOOL REPORT Features of the report of the reviewing committee on the school survey made public last week are of special interest to colored people, recommendations for making compulsory education COMPULSORY; increased facilities comfort, health and play of school children; continuation schools for high school boys who are compelled to drop out of the day care. It is manifestly clear, if all parents are to send their children to schools, which are a and evening classes are provided for students who leave the high schools in order to乖乖 will begin to improve her education. In each of these three features, the air behind other large municipalities of the state. Our school buildings are old and over the attendance law is not enforced, and to continue schools. Already the Public Improvement Commission authorized a new colored high school and secondary school to take the place of the Deer Avenue and Biddle street schools. Both are needed. Citizens Committees ought, not however, until all of the provisions of the survey are carried out. Features of the report of the reviewing committee on the school survey made public last week that are of special interest to colored people include recommendations for making compulsory education actually COMPULSORY; increased facilities for the comfort, health and play of school children; and continuation schools for high school boys and girls who are compelled to drop out of the day classes. It is manifestly clear, if all parents are required to send their children to schools, which are adequate, and evening classes are provided for secondary pupils who leave the high schools in order to work. Baltimore will begin to improve her educational system. In each of these three features, the city is far behind other large municipalities of the same size. Our school buildings are old and overcrowded, the attendance law is not enforced, and there are no continuation schools. Already the Public Improvement Commission has authorized a new colored high school and an elementary school to take the place of the Druid Hill avenue and Biddle street schools. Both are surely needed. Citizens Committees ought, not to rest, however, until all of the provisions of the Strayer survey are carried out. A COURSE IN MORALS? The superintendent of New York schools last week the proposal of teachers to create a course in GOOD MANNERS in the schools. The question of where manners and morals taught is one that will not down easily, heard from again. Parents say they have to teach their children how to behave the burden on the schools. Schools busy and put it on the church. Like church says it has but one day a week and the buck back to the parents. The net that all agencies teach manners by exam one of them by rule. We believe the New York superintendent will sympathy with the idea of a course in "bad morals," but he hesitated to stir up the that would result from trying to outline what and what should not be taught in it. Just the criticism the schools would get from ACCO, LEAGUE, when they taught that sadd habit. The superintendent of New York schools turned down last week the proposal of teachers to inaugurate a course in GOOD MANNERS in the public schools. The question of where manners and morals should be taught is one that will not down easily, and may be heard from again. Parents say they have not time to teach their children how to behave and shove the burden on the schools. Schools say they are busy and put it on the church. Likewise the church says it has but one day a week and passes the buck back to the parents. The net result is that all agencies teach manners by example but none of them by rule. We believe the New York superintendent was in full sympathy with the idea of a course in "manners and morals," but he hesitated to stir up the rumpus that would result from trying to outline what should and what should not be taught in it. Just think of the criticism the schools would get from the TO-BACCO. LEAGUE, when they taught that smoking is a bad habit. NATIONAL GUARDS Associated Negro Press despatches from work, where there is a fight going on to with colored regiment a part of the New York military quota, call to mind the fact that Illinois are the only states where units form a part of the federalized national. Before the war, Ohio, Maryland, New York, Washington, D. C. and Massachusetts National Guard units. Mustered into service over seas during the war they performed by on their return, the hand of the Wilson addition, not only disbanded them, but decreed should only be organized again as labor by Ex-Secretary Baker's infamous order of the head: IT IS THE POLICY OF THE WAR INMENT TO ORGANIZE A VERY LIMITED NUMBER OF COLORED TROOPS WHICH WOULD USED ONLY AS PIONEERS OR LABOR OF LIONS." With the war memories so vivid in their will be some time before ex-service men thrashes about service in National Guard never they ought to be interested enough to that the present Secretary of War rescinds order, and makes all branches of the army citizens without regard to color. Associated Negro Press despatches from New York, where there is a fight going on to make the 16th colored regiment a part of the New York's military quota, call to mind the fact that Illinois and Massachusetts are the only states where colored units form a part of the federalized national guards. Before the war, Ohio, Maryland, New York, Illinois, Washington, D. C. and Massachusetts had National Guard units. Mustered into service and sent over seas during the war they performed brilliantly. On their return, the hand of the Wilson administration, not only disbanded them, but decreed that they should only be organized again as labor battalions. Ex-Secretary Baker's infamous order of last year read: IT IS THE POLICY OF THE WAR DEPARTMENT TO ORGANIZE A VERY LIMITED NUMBER OF COLORED TROOPS WHICH WOULD BE USED ONLY AS PIONEERS OR LABOR BATTALIONS." With the war memories so vivid in their minds, it will be some time before ex-service men grow enthusiastic about service in National Guards. However they ought to be interested enough to see to it that the present Secretary of War rescinds the Baker order, and makes all branches of the army open to citizens without regard to color. A MODEL FOR ALL in the building of a Community House and the plans for its use, Sharp Street Memorial Methodist Episcopal Church has made a move that ought to be significant, by almost every church in the city. In the building of a Community House plans for its use. Sharp Street Memorial Episcopal Church has made a move that be imitated by almost every church in the.

If the church is to make any headway against the frivolities of the present day, it must put itself in a position to furnish recreation centers, under proper control and direction, where the young people may be brought together in ways that may be helpful to them. Too many churches condemn the movies and other forms of recreation indulged in by the young people of today, but put themselves to no pains to produce anything that will take their place. All will acknowledge that young people must have, and will seek diversion, of one kind or another. Since few find it in their homes, or under proper direction of parents or guardians, then why should not the church provide it for them. Too many of our churches keep open doors only on the Sabbath day, and with the exception of class meetings which are attended principally by the elder people, are closed and dark the balance of the week. No real sensible business man, if we look at it from that stand point, would invest fifty or a hundred thousand dollars in a business venture and expect to get a profit out of it by doing business only one day in a week. After all, is not a church a business proposition? Its business is to save souls, and so hundreds and thousands of dollars are invested in church buildings and church support. Too many of them are rated by the amount of money raised and not by the number of souls saved and gathered in. There is a crying need for more energetic work both on the part of the pastors and the church members, for the benefit of the rising generation. Community work is greatly needed and it is the church which needs to take a hold and push it for all it is worth. The church is the one institution in which a large majority of the people put their money; both members and non members contributing to its support. Then, if this is true, the church needs to put forth greater and more determined efforts to make the community a better place to live in.

Howard and Lincoln Universities sent runners into the Penn Relay games at Philadelphia last Friday and Saturday to compete with the best runners in the United States. Running against the smaller schools of their class like Gallaudet, Carnegie Institute, and George Washington University, university boys from the colored schools showed a clean pair of heels to their opponents, and in the college vernacular, "brought home the bacon." Both schools are to be congratulated for breaking into intercollegiate athletics with such success. In Northern athletic games like the annual intercollegiate contests and the Penn Relay Games, it has always been possible for colored athletes to compete on their merits. John Taylor, Howard Drew, Sol Dutter and many others have written their names in letters of gold in the athletic annuals of the larger white colleges. Now that Howard and Lincoln have recognized their opportunity, they have accepted it with commendable zeal and enthusiasm. Apparently they intend to show the rest of the country that colored schools can do as much to produce and develop champion colored athletes as white schools. And why not. We look forward to the day when any of the world's records, from the hundred yard dash to the marathon race will be held not by John Doe of Yale or Harvard, or Pennsylvania, but by John Smith of Howard or Lincoln or Morgan. BROWN EXCLUDES NEGROES AND JEWS The founder of Brown University simulated that that the institution he planned was to be open for all races. How little the present authorities regard this wishes may be seen in the announcement made last week that Brown University had adopted the policy of limiting the number of Jews and Negroes. The University needs only to include Catholics in this list and its students would then be able to join the KU KLUX KLAN without further trouble. According to the dean of the institution, who is the authority for the above policy, the Brown Alumni are to blame for this un-American attitude. Those more familiar with the situation know however, that the University authorities and the dean himself are more responsible than the alumni. A similar situation exists at Johns Hopkins University in this city where it is largely due to the prejudice of Dean Buechner that colored people have been blocked from courses there. It is generally hard to keep the Southern cracker out of the administration of Northern Universities. When they establish themselves, their first step is to put up jim crow signs. We warn Brown University in advance, that the surest way to the limbo of mediocrity is to follow the example of John Hopkins and become inoculated with this "white race superiority bug." Except for a few men of the medical faculty, Hopkins has no reputation in the educational world. How lowly it has fallen can best be seen from the fact that both the city and the state went elsewhere to find educational experts to make a survey of the schools. GEORGIA AGAIN encouraging feature of C press is the pamphlet it last week in which he thirty-five cases in which he lynched, in shi delity or driven out by m Williams case in God a colored men were in n, and the resulting in vities made it absolutely The most encouraging feature of Georgia slavery and frightfulness is the pamphlet issued by Governor Dorsey last week in which he detailed one hundred and thirty-five cases in which Negroes of that state were lynched, held in slavery, subjected to acts of cruelty or driven out by mobs. The recent Williams case in Georgia in which some eighteen colored men were murdered by a white planter, and the resulting investigations by federal authorities, made it absolutely imperative that Governor Dorsey take some steps to bring the matter to public attention, or stand eternally disgraced before the conscience of the republic. The Governor's publication of his pamphlet proved a very fortunate means of putting the state's record where all could see it, and make clear two very definite points. First, it is evident that there are some right minded white men in Georgia, or else they would not have reported voluntarily these one hundred thirty-five cases of cruelty. It is likewise just as evident that the preponderance of public sentiment is in favor of just such crimes, or else the Governor could have acted justifiably and effectively without waiting for the list to reach such alarming proportions. So deep have the people of Georgia sunk into their ways of lawlessness and cruelty, and so accustomed have they become to outside criticism of their treatment of colored people, that we doubt even now if they are seriously affected by the country wide publicity given crime in Georgia in the past few weeks. Criticism does not hurt criminals. They only fear the arm of the law which sometimes takes them by the scruff of the neck and puts them behind the bars or in the electric chair. We will be satisfied with Georgia's repentance when there is sentiment enough in the state to hang murderers altho their skins are white. OLD TIMER DISCUSSES DIVORCE OLD TIMER DISCUSSES DIVORCE Declares Young Men Should Have "Patience And Children" And Old Men "Better Sense" "What's on your mind?" asked the Reporter as he met Old Timer at the corner of Carey and Pressmeyer streets last Sunday morning. The old fellow was dressed up in his long-tailed coat and red necktie and reported a cane in spite of the drizzling rain. "What's on your mind?" asked the Reporter and he Old Timer at the corner of Care and Presatman streets last Sunday morning. The old yellow dressed in his long-tail coat and red necktie and sported a cane in spite of the drizzle. "This yere divorce business" crumpled O. T. reflectively. "You mean 'divorce'?" suggested the Reporter falling in step with Old Timer, and scenting a news story. "That's which" O. T. answered. "You know" he went on, "I was up to Methodist African Episcopal Conference last week when they had 'executive session', and I heard one of their bishops say he found a preacher in the South with a wife living. "Where" whistled the reporter. "There, there, there" declared O. T. shrilly, brandishing his can in the air. "If you are goin' to wheeat at me you can goin' to church by myself." The reporter subsided and walked on with O. T. quietly while the latter talked. "That air conference right away turned down three of four divorced men, what wanted to be preachin' I thinked they done right" said O. T. "Yos sir, but it ain't only the preachers which gits divorces nowdays. It's everybody. I was up in New York las' week when I went to jail to jude to git a divorce from a woman he has been livin' with for 25 years. He sez she is nervous. Who wouldn't git nervous after living in a cantankerous man for 25 years." "Everybody's doin' it." I tell you " said O. T. raising his voice. "Wasn't I down in the cellar of that air Bannicker Law Building the other day and a man with some of them young lawyers to 'pix fur a divorce. I goes right up on the third floor of the same buildin' and there was the waiter's wife seen' her lawyer 'about a divorce too." "I don't know what kind of bug is, but I know it is ketching us common people jus' as had as it is ketchin' preachers and doctors." "I surmise you believe in a man getting one wife and sticking to her." suggested the reporter hum- "You tell it' answered O. T. "If men folks believed in haven' one wife and several chillun insted of one chile and several wives, they'd be a durn sight better off. Of chillun married with a fox terrier, canary bird and matteser kitten fur a family insted of a batch of young chilluns." Arriving at Sharon Baptist Church Old Timer stopped and faced the reporter. "Boy' he said you can take it from an old man what's fit an' bled high' died in maternal wars—any man what gits a divorce is a false. Ef he is a young man, he had orter have patience and chillun. If he is an old man he had orter an old man an' ole man divorces his wife to marry some young gal. Good night. No rest for the weary.

EDITOR WARREN DEAD New York, May 3—The funeral of Edward Warren, part owner of the Amsterdam News, who died suddenly from heart failure or Thursday from last week, was held the A.M. E. Zion Church Sunday. The deceased was born in Nashville in 1871, but had lived here many years. WEEKS BEST EDITORIAL Morristown, Pa., Times (White) "THEIR ON FAULT" United States Senator Penrose's influence was more important to save the Rights bill in the Pennsylvania Legislature. True, the measure, which guaranteed to Negroes the same rights as white folks passed the House: but when it got into the Senate, it was "fired up"—which means that, for all practical purposes, it has been We did not expect anything else. We commended Senator Penrose for his action, and, with others who take their Americanism in orthodox view, an advanced argument, in his favor—argument that we knew would not be, and could not be, successfully combated. But the old prejudice, we knew to be too strong; the theoretical Americans we were be too many; and the consequently the real news of the bill came from Harrisburg we took it as a matter of course. We would not say the issue is forever lost. "Hope springs eternal in the hope and the hope we took folk themselves the great potentiality for eventually bringing the desideratum about. So long as they are looked upon as a natural appendage to one political entity, so long as they are the orders of the treasky party leaders, so long as they do not think and act for themselves—just so long will the outlook for the realization of constitutional immunities be Secretary of Labor Davis Says It Is UnAmerican To Create Classes Regarding the Division of Negro Economics has been abolished Labor made the following announcement today: "The so-called Division of Negro Economics has been abolished by the Secretary of Labor because office is no such thing as segregating the 'economics' of any other race. It is fundamentally unamerican to create classes or to recognize classes. Our laws are national between white men and Negroes or any other class or classes. "It is recognized that there is a race distinction and sometimes assistance of a representative of a race in dealing with the members of that race. So far as job requirements for a distinction becomes more pronounced in the field of collective bargaining when troubles between employers and employee threaten the well-being of the Negro race has been appointed a commissioner of conciliation, who has been detailed to meet the needs of the need of race representation and to advise the Secretary. Liberia Asked Protectorate In 1908 When a Liberian Mission visited Washington in 1905 and asked President Roosevelt to make Liberia an American province to make it from France and England Secretary Root replied:— "Your proposal to become an American protectorate has had the serious consideration from you every point of view that is undesirable. We, (meaning the American Government,) are rather proud of the fact that going to Africa you have gone to Africa and cut for yourselves out of the wilds of that continent a republic which you have maintained for more than fifty years. We, meaning the element,) will do nothing to rob you of the benefits of that achievement. What we will do will be to help you further along in your journey (bending you the aid of American experts and by extending to your country material aid." White Ku Klux Klan Warned Colored K. K. K. Says They Must Watch Their Signs A. Lydon, of Greenboro, N. C., wrote the Daily News defending the white Ku Klux Klan and declaring that no messiah did not punch Negroes severely enough. Next day he received the following threatening letter: "He struck the nail on the head when you said the K. K. K was needed because the courts do not function. It is for this reason that 32,000 Negroes have organized to test with bullets whether these ghostly looking objects are real ghosts. The test will be made at the next parade at which time the personnel at least a few "COLORED K. K. K." The "warning" was written on a sheet of paper about the size of a postal card, with no date or contained no clue to the writer's identity. There was apparently no attempt to disguise the handwriting, and no words were misspelled. as is general the custom in writing. The warning printed on the back of the sheet of paper was on less threatening than the written message, in big bold type it stated that: "The careful man is and always will be the best man. Take care not chances. Watch your step." Professional Walter Had $30.00 In Pockets When Found Dead (New York News) The sudden death of Joseph Lee, 48 years old, last week revealed the fact that he was privileged in wealth in $20,000 in cash and $20,000 in Liberty bonds were found on his person, in addition to two bank books. He was a waiter by profession, going to Florida in the winter and the Thousand Islands in the summer. In color he was a bright mul- tiple, with a bright and freckled face, and to those who did not know him was taken for a white man. Black Jews In Pasgover Footwashing, Divine Healing, And Holy Water. Part of The Ceramics. Cincinnati Journal Representatives from Jamaica, South America and Africa assembled last Tuesday in the Hotel Sterling under the auspices of the Holy Church, for the purpose of observing the ritual of the Passover Feast. A choir of two hundred members, in song by St. Cuxta Connors, chanted a series of "Hallelujahs" of Scriptures and praise. Baked in sandy colors of bright blue, red purple and brown, men and women delegates were an imitation of their broad cans, when they observed the Jewish Sabbath last Friday and Saturday, according to the custom of the church, which holds the Sunday observance of the Jewish church, during the ceremonies to be performed were baptism, foot-washing, divine healing and saluting with the Holy Kiss. Among the Bishops in attendance were the following: Se Bishop J. M. Grove, white, of Imagia, Karna. A. S. Dickerson of Newark N. J.

HARRIS PROFESSOR CARVER LIKES HIS PHOTO Tuskegee Chemist Tells Of Bi Tript To Washington Last Week Professor George cW. Carver, scientist and agricultural expert at Tukegee Institution declares that the above sketch by an Afro artist is his. Professor Carver is known throughout the country as a man who discovered how to gather a hundred products including withal, blackberry and plum punches, two grades of flour, two grades of meal, five breakfast foods, etc. out of the peanut. Professor Carver writes "I want to express my appreciation of the very fine cartoon you were kind enough to send me. Its very good indeed. Several asked me if you have the professor I told them I did not know but would ask you. I have just returned from a trip from Washington, D. C. being called in to an institution made of air plants and the Wilson dam at Muscle Shoals, Alabama.

Corbett (white) in Washington, D. C. Star) I know pressure has been in vogue in North and South Carolina, Georgia, Alabama, Mississippi, Louisiana and Texas for a score or more years, and that the people each year have said, did they really know they were violating any law. They were not guilty of the beholdens offenses charged to Williams and sons, but in some cases, the crime same form or other violation of the federal law. In these states larceny is made a crime, which, on conviction, carries a sentence of imprisonment and incarceration in the penitentiary. The value of the article stolen does not matter. It may be an old shirt, a chicken, a hat, or a pair of jeans. The law was made to find an excuse to disfranchise as many Negroes as possible, and if a boy of twelve was held for stealing even a hat, he was allowed the right of franchise. 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 On conviction of such lights offenses as I have mentioned, the judge, feeling that the crime too serious to be prosecuted, year in the penitentiary (which was the lightest sentence which could be imposed) would inquire whether he would pay the costs of the court and take the culprit for a year as that he would thus be free to mingle with his followers at night and would come forward and the prisoner was sold and warned that if he tried to esccape he would be held in the prison and he would be sent to the penitentiary. The culprit, of course, gladly accepted the offer and his relatives and friends were made to pay the costs of the court and he had escaped the horrors of the penitentiary, which were depicted by the returned convicts, who told of cruel heatings for the offenses and the hospital of all rights and privileges of human beings. --- The vavrancy laws are instruments that send only colored men to peonage. So stronge men may be allowed to wear larger more than ten days unless he has applied for a job, and he matters not how much money he has to pay. If he has a good sum it militates against him, as he is sure to be suspected as a thief and get a fine. If there is no chance of his paying a fine and escaping sentence, No white man is considered a vagrant if he remains idle for months or years. From committing any other offense. ```markdown ``` Another cause of neonage is the landlord and tenant acts of that section and the fact that most of them are young. This means that they work for a certain part of the crop, and not for wages. The landowner furnishes the horse-nower, tools and other things needed and sees to it that the propper farmer furnishes him a commissary grocer of his selection. The price of supplies is exorbitant, so that at the end of the year the laborer finds himself in debt, even after he has received his share of the crop. He hews he cannot leave his emplower while in his debt, though he receives brutal treatment, and if he does his employer will not notice him, he hire said person, and in some instances will have him arrested and returned to the form. Should the laborer die his wife and children cannot move away until the debt is repaid, in this manner many are held in bondage from year to year. FORUM. A LETTER BOX FOR THE PEOPLE PHILADELPHIA READER UR- GES . COUNTRY-WIDE OR GANIZATION FOR EQUAL RIGHTS BILL Dear Editor:— As an old reader of the AFRO allow me space in your paper to say a word on the Equal Rights Bill. Since watching the fight on the TV we can good use this. The need of a better border. No one can say anything about the great fight Mr. Ashbury and Mr. Stevens made, but we as a people are to blame, because we have all the rights in our race in order to receive the things we are fighting for. One of the things I have in mind is to bring every Negro organization of each State under one allied state in order to have all the States and if elected have his office to be in Washington, D. C. Then let all State elect one man, but he must be outside of all organization and he would be beaten up. This way we could soon bring every state together and then if Baltimore wants something every other state would be back of her man, and with God our real leader would be with every Battle regardless of odds.

Didn't Want Bill Lewis On Football Team Harvard Cainin threatened to Quit Before Ex-assistant Attorney General Was Allowed To Play (Cullen Cain in Phila, Ledger) When I was a boy out in Missouri, in a little country town, I learned the insimony and shame of defeat beamed upon proud and haughty Harvard, year after year, by the Tale football warriors of the follow. Old Harvard team is closely and sadly as ever any Frenchman followed Nanoleoel's Grand Armee in the Russian campaign. The best all-around athlete and most popular fraternity man of the university was elected captain of the university when position and wealth and family pride were all doing their best to destroy athletics at Cambridge. They helped Yale at Cambridge. They helped Yale every year in bearing Harvard. Well, Bert Waters counted brawn and speed and nerve as high as family and fortune in making the team. There were two players who were Warner popularity premeditated. Then came the case of Lewis, the Necro contemptuus, the best of his day, and a Harvard student at this time, because of his color. The proud Harvard students would not stand for a Necro to represent their team, even though most of the famous abolitionists had the same attitude. But Waters held out for Lewis to the end, and, after threatening to leave the team, finally carried his point. Lewis, a Necro played on the team, was a clean game and a clean game, Harvard's first real stand against Yale began in Bert Waters' time and Hauhton and Bricklew and Daley and Mahan finished the job and the first line that had held Yale for years. The years fleeted by more of them than I like to count, and then, one day, as I sat the window out, he brought a big, imposing-looking Negro with a strong face and distinished hearing to me and introduce him as 'Prof. Lewis, who is to speak tonight, etc.'. Lewis who crouched low in the center of the Harvard rush line years ago. I gave him my hand and top of the column on the first page and me moved to the next, a first talk. I knew he would. He was that kind of a man. He played a great game of football and he played clean and fair. Black outside and Harvard's skin, he looked humble and humble. GOVERNOR DORSEY EXPOSES TERRIBLE CONDITIONS IN SOUTHLAND police and Courts Conspire To Keep Negroes In Perpetual Slavery FRIDAY, MAY 6, 1921 GOVERNOR Police and Courts Negroes In Per PREACHED Later Driven Out He Preached Again Atlanta, Georgia, May 3—Below are typical cases from among the 135 mentioned in Governor Hugh Dorsey's booklet concerning the treatment of colored people in Georgia. No names are mentioned. COUNTY No. 13 A Negro was killed without excuse, it is said, by a deputy officer in this county in the latter part of 1920. A Negro minister, in preaching the funeral, said that some line of protection for the lives and property of Negroes should be formed. As a result, leading Negroes were ordered, to leave the place or suffer for the consequence of their efforts, armed themselves and remained. The better element of whites protected them. COUNTY No. 23 In November, 1920, a Negro breacher was forced at the point of a pistol to enter a motor car. He was carried three miles into the country, stripped, tied to a log and beaten. He was left unconscious. When he recovered consciousness he left the county. He knows the names of those who beat him, but hares not tell for fear of death. The sheriff of the county writes the governor: "I understand this Negro has been trying to organize the Negro women a cook for the white people only for a certain price, is the reason he was whipped. I also don't think it would do any good to offer a reward, because we won't be able to convict anybody unless the Negro that got whipped will swear to the parties." Near a small town in this country a Negro was born 59 or 60 years ago. By work, he accumulated a little money with which, 10 years later, he bought a farm of 140 acres, where he lived with his wife and 12 children. Three of his daughters were educated. They were school teachers. A three-room house was on the farm. The farm was well stocked, the Negro owning in 1919 a large number of made payments on the purchase of a horse, a cow and 35 horses. During the war with Germany this Negro family bought approximately $1,000 worth of Liberty bonds and thrift stamps. The Negro headed an organization of Negroes, who raised between $10,000 and $11,000 for Liberty bonds. His work was highly praised by newspapers at the time, and he read and wrote, own a farm adjoining the farm of the Negro. When the articles praising the man for his war work appeared, the white-man remarked: "_____ getting too damned prosperous and piggy for a nigger. Trouble began. The white man had his land processed. The Negro had no representative present. The processors ran the man's line 25 feet over the Negro's line, across a cemetery which had a child working for the family from whom he bought the land. The deed given to him covered the land to this terrace. The white man crossed the terrace, drove stakes along the new line and warned the Negro not to cross the line. The Negro disregarded the warning and continued to plow to the terrace, as he had before, going along the Blacks and whites from the country crowd the town Saturday afternoons. One Saturday, the fall of 1919, the Negro with his three daughters and son came to town. The town marshal approached the Negro in the street and said: "If you want to get to the Negro answered: Mr. —, what have I done? Read your warrant." The marshal replied with an bath that he would rather kill the Negro than read the warrant. Here the evidence varies. The Negro gave his hand. The Negro say that the marshal, who is large and powerful, grabbed the stick and struck the Negro in the face with a pistol, knocking him down. Others state that the Negro, raising his slick, backed away when the marshal rushed in and struck him to the ground. The Negro, of white men rushed upon him and began to choke and heat him. Two of the daughters started to film. 'A man kicked one girl in the stomach. The other reached her father and began to wipe the blood from his face. The three were quickly over-powered. The third daughter and the son were caught. All were locked in jail. The who was kicked in the stomach was kicked. The blow made her death sick. She lay in jail meaning and begging that something be done for her, and her father, who was bleeding badly from his wounds. The sheriff locked them in and left them without medical attention andignant of the charge against them. Next morning the Negro learned that his neighbor had sworn out a warrant against him for trespass. The sheriff refused to tell what the charge was against his daughter. The Negro employed as lawyer. Then he found that he and his daughters were charged with resisting an officer in the discharge of his duty. his son, with 'carrying a' pistol. Only, one, witness claims, the pistol in the neighbor, who said, that he had seen son, put the pistol in the piggy, while the crowd was on his father. The buggy was searched. this pistol, was not found. the man, was not found, the family, caused their, remount, to another, county. A committee of citizens waited upon the judge of the circuit, who informed them, it is charged, that he would put the Negro in the chain gang when the case should come up for trial. The man, his daughters and son were tried in the superior court. The father was sentenced to serve 12 months in the chain gang and pay a fine of $250. The girls were fined $50 each. The son was fined $100. The Negro paid the fines of his children. The man's smaller children and his wife were in his home, while he was in jail. A mob led by the town marshal went to the house, kicked the door and demanded admittance, then shot up the house and went away. This was night. Next morning the woman and her children fed from her home never went out. A friend went by night and removed the live stock belonging to the family and sold it for them at a great sacrifice. Their crop was a total loss. They will be lynched, it is said, if any of them ever return to their home. Reputable merchants and bankers in this county unite in giving the Negro and his family a good character. The son has been offered a loan of $450 by a leading farmer to pay a note, the holder of which threatened suit during these troubles. A leading merchant gave the father a line of credit running from $890 to $1,500 a year. One of the best citizens of the county signed his bond. The education of his children and the success of his thrift seem to be the sole offense of the Negro. "Case No. 131, a Negro complained in a pokeage case. At the trial in Atlanta he appeared as a witness. Fearing to return to the county he went elsewhere to live. The son of his former employer discovered where he was living, obtained a warrant for his arrest, and brought him back. He disappeared. A boy fishing found skull in the stream. Search was made, a body unearthened. In a pouch found a cord identifying the corpse as that of the original Negro. "Case No. 125 (County No. 26) The sheriff of this county, with two other men, were in an automobile on the road to the county site. They were drinking. The sheriff asked a Negro in the road to get him a drink of water. The Negro answered that he was not at his own home, but that he supposed there would be no objection to getting him a drink of water. "The sheriff left the car and struck the Negro twice with a pistol. The man brought the water. The sheriff made him get in the car, carried him 300 yards and made him leave the car where he beat him over the head with a pistol and a stick. The bleeding Negro was forced into the car again and made to lie down. He kicked ten miles, the sheriff kicking him in the body and head. One eye was virtually knocked out. Then the sheriff made him get out. He was beaten again on his naked body. "The sheriff stopped to cut another stick when one of his companions advised the Negro to run if he wished to live. This he did, hiding in the woods, and passerboy carried into town. The sheriff indicted for assault toment to murder. He was acquitted. The Negro beaten has the reputation of being a peaceable, lawabilding, hard working man. He was threatened, with death, if he testified against the sheriff." ALEXANDRIA, VA.

RIBLE CONI FARMERS Garden News Cherry Trees, Strawberries And Raspberries, Will Grow In Average Back Yard By James H. Burdett (Director of the National Garden Bureau) When the Americans were in France, those who took interest in such things were impressed with the home gardens of that country, which combined. In a manner unusual here, the production of flowers, fruit and vegetables. French cottager, they observed, makes use of all his land, and he seldom has much, to obtain the maximum benefit. If he wants a shade tree he plants a fruit tree, which provides both food and shelter. His flowers edge his lettuce bed: grapes are planted on his arbor and the leaves are shed with the sunny side with dwarf fruit trees trained grafted it. Why not so in America? the observant soldiers asked themselves. The answer is that, except for gas permeated soil, bark yards density shaded by tall buildings, there is no good reason why American home gardens should not have plantations of fruit. Any one having a location away from this triple combination of fruit bids by-products can grow fruit as successfully as flowers. What Grows Best Here For the Maryland territory some things are difficult, but, on the other hand, other things are easy. For a sure fire assortment with which it would be hard to fail, I would recommend as a home garden fruit plantation, cherry trees, red raspberry bushes and a fall bearing strawberry bed. All these do splendidly in and near Maryland, and, unless you are the sort of chap who thinks it more like chick it own strawberry he can buy just as good at the grocery stores, you are not likely to regret planting them. The Progressive strawberry is considered to be the best of the fall bearing varieties. This is just the time to plant them. For the home garden there is only one good way to grow them—in rows two to three feet apart, with the plants 18 inches apart in the rows. Pick off the runners to direct all the energy of each plant to increasing its own growth, by using the own growth size each plant will attain and the number of berries you can pick from fifty or a hundred plants. Plants obtained in the spring are much cheaper than in the fall. There are fall bearing varieties of red raspberries which are rapidly becoming popular for home gardens. A plantation of raspberries will begin to produce pretty well in two years. Black raspberries are also easy to grow. LORED UNDERTAKER ICES. FUNERALS $75 AND UP I.

From his hiding down underneath the bridge leader from Crackerville to the Potters Field, Tyson sees the posses suspects of men dragging the river for his drowned body. Toward evening, Tyson, unable to stand the strain any longer, crawled out of his hole under the bridge, and committed suicide by throwing himself into the water, when he was overtaken by a "dead-wagon" returning from the Foster's Field. Frightened at first, he soon recognized his friend Tyson and, lifting his exhausted body into the wagon, drove to him. At the same time a possessed out from the Sheriff's office to rob the settlement in search of * CONCLUDING CHAPTER As the clock struck one Fred logan drove his horse into the Critchlow stable, back of the undertaking office, facing High street, he stopped to talk to the hunter in reply to Mr. Critchlow's query: "What's our next move?" Dr. Benjamin Hunter went out of the office at the same time logan did to see himself that there wasn't not been a soul in sight," he said to Mr. Critchlow as he quietly closed the door. Immediately after this announcement Mr. Critchlow engulfed the light, pulled the old portierte across the room and backed to the doctor to follow him to the rear of the establishment, opening into the stable, where he stopped and stepping in to the dark stable Mr. Critchlow called to Logan. "Here I am." Logan answered most out of breath. "Where's your lantern?" "Hanging there on the wall," "Hold on a minute!" broke in the doctor while Logan was looking the stable door. "Go up in the left and take a peep outside before making a right. We'd better work in the dark any way. If there's no one around call down us and we will bring Tyson up there." Logan, who knew every inch of size in the stable quickly, ascended the ladder-like steps leading up into the loft. Mr. Critchler, meanwhile groped his way down to the "dead-wagon" and stood ready to open it. "Everything's all right," called Logan through the hay rack. "Tyson! Tyson!!" called Mr. Critchler as he swung wide the gates off the wagon. "Come out, quickly!" Exhausted, stiff, his eyes proming their sockets. Tyson crawled to the back of the wagon, and said: "I'm by the doctor and I don't want to be lifted out of the wagon by his feet." "Where am I?" were Tyson's first words. In *Critchlow's stable* with a *doctor* and *undertaker*, jocularly responded Hunter, whose opaque eyes circumnavigated, and as they were the only doctor and understaff in Crackerville, Tyson knew exactly who they were. "How do you feel, Jim?" inquired the doctor. "Can you walk?" evinced the post follow could not for had not the two men been holding him, he would have dropped to the ground. They were not long in carrying him into the hay loft, where he was stretched on the floor. "Knock me out," looked Fred, and if you see anyone coming let us know, "warned Hunter. 'Now Tyson, tell us where you have been.'" Tyson told them briefly all that had happened the previous evening; he had come to shoot the conductor, how he managed to escape the pose and the hounds; his under the bridge, and of his decimation to drown himself by Logan. That rest their knew. "Let you have anything to eat? Let me feel your pulse." While the doctor was taking Tyson's heartwarming gold bandage on his sandwiches Logan had given him on the way back from the Potter's Field. "Do you feel feverish?" the doctor asked, feeling Tyson's foiled. "Do you feel half-dead; numb?" The doctor took from his pocket a small case and, going over to where Logan stood, to take advantage of a little light coming on the small screens. Returning to where Tyson lay, he gave the pills to him and told him to take them, a little hard without water, but impose you can get them down a little hard. Now you try to come in later on in the morning. Don't make any noise and all things, don't leave the stable." "I don't think I'll ever leave Doc. Tell my mother all about it will you." You mustn't feel like that. You must be all, right in a few days. I hope you may be able to help you escape. Moshiwai. Mr. Criticow had seen some fresh bay hay over the street, some stained tyson in rolling over on it. The undertaker then threw a blanket over him. All the staff started: toward the lower floor. Think the poor fellow will live. Dr. asked Mr. Criticow when all three were down. The issue was the knock. Knock! Knock!!! A sound was heard: coming from the door of the office. Sue fell down. She even ran up the doctors' a key was turned in the door was opened and tied to the heard traversing the room old portiere sereched on its from where Dr. Hunter had light having been turned on. Was Mrs. Criticow, woh had come to the office in search of her husband who had not been home since noon. the previous day. There she stood, meditating-surly staring at the mirror, eager to determine what had happened. "It's your wife, Sam. For God's sake don't let any woman in on this yet. Go out Freed and tell you you were late getting back from the owner's field and that Mr. Critchlow went to Watertown on business. It did not take Logan long to assure Mrs. Critchlow that nothing unusual had happened and that he ought to be back shortly. He ought to be conscientized hurried trips to neighboring towns in Lee county. "I felt so uneasy" she said. "I had gone to bed but was awakened by the sound of Logan volunteered to see her home but stated that he wanted to make sure that the stable door was locked; so leaving her for the moment he returned to the stable. After you see my wife home, Freed will see what you can be done for Tesson. "Well, Doc," said Critchlow after they had gone, "what shall we do? What shape is Tyson in?" He had shape for the moment. Mama took the medicine I gave him a stimulant for his heart and something to make him sleep. I'll bring him some medicine from the office in the morning. By the way, what time is it? "Must be nearly three." "Suppose we turn in, too Tyson's too weak to move around Well. Is what he needs most there? here about eight clock in the room." Next morning, as had been his custom for years, Samuel Crightlow was in his office at eight o'clock. Logan returned soon after daybreak. After he left Mrs. Crightlow, he had gone to his room; and without undressing threw himself across his bed but could not sleep. Dr. Hunter, long accustomed to having his rest broken into, got up about seven o'clock, ate a good breakfast, lighted a good cigar and went into the part of his large house occupied by his office. Here he examined his hand case, placed several additional bottles in it, and at seven forty-five stepped into the street feeling as refreshed as ever. Before going to the undertaker's, he stopped by Joe Simpson's grocery store to see if he could get an inkling of what was going on to find Tyson. He gleaned from the things Simpson said that Tyson had been given up "That's a reward of five-hundred dollars for him dead or alive; but I don't want the money. Tyson was one of my best customers, you know." "Yes," thought Dr. Hunter, "you don't want the money but you would give a year of your life to see him strong up." Leaving the grocery store, the doctor was not long in reaching Critchlow's where he found his old invention, a morning paper. "Good Morning. See anything there about Tyson?" "Yes, they've put out a reward or him dead or alive; but seem to believe that he got away." "Thought of anything, yet, Doc." "No! Have you?" "Not yet! I'll ship up and #et now he's getting along." As Dr. Hunter stepped from the office into the office he saw Logan lusting himself with his work in the stable. "Good Morning, Doc." he greeted. "Hello, Fred! Have you been in the loft yet? How's Tyson?" "Yessir. I was up there a few minutes ago. He's sleeping like everything. Very well. That's good for him." When the doctor reached Tyson, he again felt his pulse and getting down on his knees, listened to his heart-beat. His patient said the question was to get him out of the town, and the farther away the better. "Let his sleep, Fred. He'll soon be all right. When he wakes up give him this medicine," he said to Logan before returning to the office. "How's Jim this morning?" queried Mr. Critchlow, when the doctor had returned. "He'll be all right in a day or so as a strong young man, anyway. Critchlow heaved a sigh of relief." "By the way: Oh Fred: Fred: "Coming!" yelled Logan from the stable. We've got that body to ship today. I must forget it." "What body it that?" interrogated the doctor. "Mary Green, the papier we buried the other day. Her father has been found and wants us to him the-body. He's in Atlanta. "I've got it!" fairly yelled the doctor. "Ship Tyson's body, instead. I'll run over to Atlanta with the underwriter. Who is he? Maybe. I know him. He ought be able to persuade the old man to let us do it." "Faking up the permit, Mr. Cribbin informed him that the body was to be shipped to J. Krown and Company." "Sure, I know him. We went to school together." That afternoon when the fast Atlanta Express stopped in climbed aboard and seated himself in the Jim Crow car. Five hours later he alighted from the train in Atlanta and immediately took a taxi to the company. There he not his old college chum, who was more than delighted to see him. He hastily related his mission to Brown and asked him if he could make arrangements with the woman. "There are no arrangements to be made with him." Brown said. He died this afternoon. I understand that he had been looking for this man and the death of her death killed him. He was ninety-one years old." That night, Dr. Hunter returned to Crackerville and the following day, Dr. Hunter, the dead man was shipped in an especially made coffin. To J. Brown and Company, Undertakers, Atlanta, Georgia; From Atlanta, Georgia; From New York City. His aged mother died a few years later without ever seeing her son again. She heard from her son, and Tyson escaped to New York City on a visit and brought her a message from him. LITTLE DIGNITY TO WEDDINGS OF CROATIONS, SAYS PICKENS Mob Catches White Brute Danville, Va., May 3.—Hearing that Bud Carr (white) had entered the home of a 13 year old colored and was attempting criminal assault, a crowd of angry people gathered around the residence.

LITTLE DIGNITY TO OF CROATION Bride Groom And Best Man In Shirt Sleeves. Celebration Takes All Day TABLE LADEN Pigs Feet. Pork. Chicken. Cake. Beer. Wine And Whiskey On Menu (Wm. Pickens In Public Journal) I had a human experience in Gary: I was cordially and informed about the building of foreign-inspired婚姻. Every thing I found. They are people who came from the eastern shore of the Adriatic. The岛 is a bridge-groom and his brother came to our apartment, in their sleeve, to use the phone, and in-vited us all to come down to the wedding. What time? Why, all this was a month. The bridegroom was a bearing, sincere face. The girl, "Mary," known to everybody around, was equally plain and full of beans, and was always in a state of calm. Allow plenty? Of time for the celebration and to permit all the friends, who were workmen in the great steel mills, to attend. Great work was a thing that made the affair so much like that of the darker-skinned race of the southern United States who lived in the rural districts and are of the same culture as the great steel mills. It was a very oratoric and it was a颂ning of a remarking. We could not find time to step into this wedding celebration till night, after all the other guests and friends had celebrated. And when we were full of the celebration, and if the people's faces had been black we might have been attending some great "Party" described by Paul Lawrence-Junbar. There were many great groups with every kind of food and drink that could be found or made-beans, canned fruits, peas, apples, pickled pigset, beef, fresh pork, chicken, plums, soda pop, beer, wine and the most terrible whiskey. At each plume there was a glass of double-looking wine. It was an inexplicable fact that I found in it a mixture of every other kind of a mixture of every other kind in the house—soda, wine, beers and whiskies. There was the many-storied imitation There were the men, all in shirt sleeves, drinking, singing and laughing in the house was going to and fro in perfect good nature pouring out the joy, and was himself full almost to overloading. There were mother and the children from the neighborhood serving. One was dressed in a gauze waist with yellow collar and gown, giving the shirt. There were the young men friends of the bride and groom and all kiss- ing "Mary" at their wits, were the little wives who had the privilege of witnessing of "saving little" on this night to share the joy of "big sis" and their other elders. Everybody from the pater and mater-families down to little brother and sister, their bosoms who flowers and bride was one of her own walters, serving in her bridal vell, amid dirt and liquors, and spatotched her. There were looking babies with bobbled hair, blue ribbon hows and sushes. And there were the musicians saving away on a dozen discordant instruments. And there were babies of dirt—poise and universal joy. There were no presents of the usual useless and burdensome sort, but the bride was presented with Five Hundred Dollars on the packets of these sincere, hard- Colored people do not celebrate in this manner because they are colored and these people do not celebrate in this manner because they are "turinners."

She was speedily acquitted by a jury. According to the testimony of the woman, who is a member of the choir of Grace Presbyterian Church, she had her husband arrested by the Northwestern District Police, charging him with non-support and desertion. She relented, however, and the charge was dismissed by Justice Cummings on promise to pay her five dollars a week. She testified that he paid her five dollars one week and on Easter Sunday morning, after borrowing $2 of this back, he beat her before she got out of bed. She fixed him a good breakfast, however, and then, according to her testimony, the man choked one of the little children. He returned for dinner, ate, and heat her again before leaving. The same treatment was in store for supper time when he brandished a knife. She grabbed a pistol, ordered him to get out and fired a shot. It was then that the police arrested her. Justice Chapman gave her sixyears in jail for alleged assault. The case was appealed and the woman released on ball. Attorney George L. Pendleton, who appeared for the woman, convulsed the court as he told of the alleged cranshooting and assaulting progenities of Carter. Mrs. Carter subsequently appeared at the Northwestern Police Station and asked for the arrest of the man on a charge of desertion and non-support. The warrant was refused. The Grand Jury indulged against him on Thursday of last week and he is out on $100 ball. الخطوة BELIEVES IN DIVIDING VOTE "I am glad that the proposal was made at the meeting of white Democratic women of the 11th award to welcome colored women, Jacob C. Nicholson, president of the Plurio-Parson League, told a representative of the AFRO-AMC on the other day. "I have always contended that the best interests of the race would be subserved by scattering their votes among all parties, and hope that the suggestion will bear fruit." RIOT CALL SENT IN For Shot Gun Richard Robinson, of Ridgley street, Mt. Winnas, was arrested by Southern district police Tuesday after a riot call had been sent in. The claim was made that he was driving children off his lawn with a dogman. He said that he had simuliert asked the children to stay off the lawn and that he had no shot gun. The police testified he had no weapon. The case was dismissed. WANTS TO SELL PROPERTY Through his attorney George McMechen, Harry O. Wilson filed petition in Circuit No. 2, against Dr. Charles A.

BONDSMAN IS FOUND QUILT Ernest Jones Said To Have Promised Man To Get Him Out Of Jail Ernest Jones, who is alleged to have taken $1,000 from Michael Gratz, white, on the claim that he would get him out of jail, was convicted by Judge Duffy, in Criminal Court, a charge of false pretenses Monday.

Before a small but appreciative audience, Miss Nanny May Stra- thorn was heard in a recital at Sharon Baptist Church last. Thursday night. Less than a hundred persons were present. The outstanding qualities of Miss Strahyron's playing, as revealed on this occasion, are a keen sense of rythmic values and a true appreciation of tonal nuance. Her readings are at all times subjective rather than objective. That is to say; there is never the least evidence of any attempt to "capture" her audience by abortive interpretations. She is alone concerned with preserving at all times the harmonic value of a passage gardless of whatever possibility it may offer for a seemingly legitimate over-accelerated movement. Her technical equipment shows a theatrical training. Especially was this emphasized in the delicacy with which she executed the pianissimo passages. She has a charming personality. There was no evidence of the affectation that is the bane of some of our musical artists. Proof of this was easily manifest by the unabashed and smiling way, when discovering that her memory had tricked her in her Gabrieliowitz manner. She at once admitted as much offering to play a substitute instead. Madam Powell was the only other assisting artist, singing four numbers in a rich sweet contralto voice. The perennial, unobtrusive yet highly capable Herbert Johnson was the accompanist. SISTERS CAUSE RIOT CALL New Church Members Could Not Stand Teasing And Fight Mrs. Ella Saulbury, of the 200 block of North Vincent street took reflection some weeks ago, but it appears that the fire of the Holy Ghost has not struck her sister, Ella Gardner. Ella, who is alleged to have been three sheets in the wind, called on her sister on Thursday afternoon of last week and rewarded with a gift and a winner. After what she wanted she succeeded to poke fun at her sister for joining church. She used cuss words and even stronger language it is alleged, and it was not long before the church sister and the sinner one was fighting all over Vincent street. A pilot call to the Southwestern Police Station bound the police reserve and the two sisters were linked to the stationhouse. John Saulbury, husband of one of the belligerents, put up $26.45 for his wife, the other languished in a cell all night. The next morning Ella was fined $3.45, while the other was dismissed.

GARAGE PROTESTSED South Baltimore And Kick Against Project For Hill St. A lively protest meeting of the patrons of the Hill Street School and the residents of the vicinity of the 100 block of West Hill St. was held at 104 W. Hill street Friday, against the conversion of the building into a public garage. Building Inspector J. Frank Crowther was present. George A. Owens, principal of the school, told of the necessity of the proposed grazing to the school, and other probable danger to the 1200 pupils attending. He backed up by Mrs. Charles K. Wing, a patron. Rev. J. Henry Dorsey, priest in charge of St. Monica's parish, said a pool room and a saloon, in which a woman was killed, had been located on the premises, but had been closed. He asserted that the residents of the block were strongly opposed to the gauge, because of nearness to the school and church, as well as the fact that it was a desirable residential neighborhood. Dr. Ernest Lyon also registered an emphatic protest.
