Colored Union Men Stand ing Out With Others For Better Conditions
Officials of local steamship companies when asked in what capacities colored men are being employed on vessels were for the most part excusive when it came to talk about regarding their policy in employing officers, firemen and seamen from the race.
The Atlantic Transport and Baltimore Oceanic Steamship Company referred their questioner to the Sea Service Bureau in the Customhouse. The information received there was to the effect that colored were given jobs only in the steward's department. This bureau is under the Shipping Board, the policy of which is said to be against giving colored men an equal chance.
"When asked over the telephone an official of the Black Diamond Steamship Company said "Come to our office," while the Munson Line advised: "Call and we will see what we can do."
The Pacific Mail Steamship Company said that there are openings for deckhands, in the engine room and the stewards' department while the Bull Steamship Company said colored men were only employed as stewards.
The Wolfe F. Spice Company said no colored men were employed and the Clarence Cottman Company replied, "All filled up."
The Export Transportation Company did not know anything about colored men being employed except as stewards but advised their questioner to come in next week.
The Green Star Line replied, "No openings now," and a man in the States Marine Company said he believed there are some good openings for colored men. It is said that colored strikers are sticking closer to their white comrades than ever because the whites refused to listen to an offer of mediation that does not include the colored.

Mrs. Myria Simmons, mother of the dead woman when seen in her house, Mrs. Husband Norfolk, declared that she had heard of Dean threatening her daughter, but paid no attention to it.

NATION TELLS OF THE FRENCH BLACK TROOPS
Forced To Campaign For
Cause In Which They
Have No Interest And
Do Not Understand
U. S. CRIMES IN HAYTI
Conscience Of America
Dead Unless It Pays For
Wrong Inflicted
New York, May 20.—"It is impossible to study . . . the Negro occupation, and believe that the presence of black troops constitutes a constant terror and a horror to the Germans. The crime . . . is rather against the black troops themselves than against the Germans. They are virtually shaves forced in. To military service in a cause in which they have no interest and which they do not understand."
Thus writes Lewis Gannett from Mainz, Germany, after careful first-hand study. His article appears in THE NATION for about 100 pages, and its officials told Mr. Gannett "that this propaganda was a commercial enterprise conducted for profit." The article censures the conditions of the occupation, and describes in detail not only conduct of the black troops but the fact that of the white troops as well.
Speaking of the crimes in Haytai, made public by a commission of three Haytaians who visited the White House last week the Nation said yesterday: "The American does not arouse the American people then its conscience is indeed dead. The Nation cannot believe that it is and that all our professions of good faith, deceyance, fair play, and kindness unplaced for only a century and a half, can be lightly east on the scrap-heap.
"Here is a small and inoffensive country, next to our own the oldest republic in this hemisphere, she governs for 11 years while the military conquest of freedom fifty years before our own (for it abolished slavery when it became independent), made the victim of wholly wanton brutal, militaristic conquest, and was faced that cannot be whitened, propaganda lies away.
"It matters little what President Harding said at the foot of the statue of Bolivar, or what fine phrases President Willem J. What it matters, the acid test what we have done and what we shall do to little Haiti, the one country which, by a curious irony, made a really substantive tion to the cause of Bolivar and South American freedom while we stood aloof."

Williamson, W. V., May 18.—Hundreds of colored men, their wives and children are affected by the great storm that hit the union on Monday night breakers which resulted in five deaths last week.

Washington, D. C. May 19.—Effects of James E. Shelly, a lieutenant colonel in the army, to show off at the Capital House Show by pushing us to Richard Christmas a room and striking him with his heels, nearly got him a good heating this week.
Shelley, who is the son of a rebel general, saved himself by shooting the colored man in the stomach, and is now the captain. And he did not like the way Christmas was riding the horse. As soon as Christmas got Shelly alone, he asked him to stay. He meant by staying he was watching, aged by the manliness of the groom, Shelley struck him again, whereupon Christmas took the whip away from the cracker as if he were a man on the point of administering the shout he deserved, when he was shot.

Governor-elect Declares He Will Not Continue Agitation For Betterment
Atlanta, Ga. May 18—In his fight against injustice and misreatment of the colored man in Georgia, Governor Dorsy is receiving no assistance from prominent officials. Instead he is being severely criticized, and was informed by Governor-elect W. S. Hardwick, white, who takes office next month, that he will not carry the charge. In a pamphlet issued recently containing 135 specific cases Governor Dorsy charged that Negro was held in slavery and been driven out of other sections as though he were a wildest. He listed several instances of lynchings, murder, beatings and misreatment of Negroes, and charged that law abiding Negroes had been persecuted by white neighbors for no other reason than that the Negroes had become prosperous by

One Man Boat Expected To Be Able To Cross The Pacific Ocean
Los Angeles, Cal., May 11—The second ark built to measurement set down by Noah in the Bible will be launched at the water front this week.
For three years Rev. J. C. Lewis of this city has been steadily engaged in the gigantic task of building a ship all by himself. The launching of the vessel was originally set for May 9, when crowds of all races gathered at the wharf. They were disappointed when told that it would be postponed until next week.
To newspaper men Rev. M. Lewis declared that trusting in public opinion seems to help soon the Liberia and way points. Like Noah he not only built his own ship but will be his own Captain and crew.

O-OPERATIVE BAPTISTS IN ANNUAL SESSION
Support Urged For Recently Established Aged Home On Lexington Street
sperting that Baptists in Ireland had made great strides Rev. D. G. Mack in desiring his annual address as assistant of the Co-operative Baptist Convention of Maryland, deemed that the future should find a denomination that would make a most posse worthy work. The twelfth-first annual session of the convention opened Monday Parkins Square Baptist Church, and will end with a Sunday School meeting. The opening sermon was preached by Rev. J. Albert Moore, pastor of First Baptist Church. Rev. F. W. Williams welcomed the Convention to the church and Rev. Garnett respond-
The address of President Mack is a general review of the work accomplished during the year. He urged support for the recently-established home for old folks, which is located at 1620 W. Lexington Street. Those were paid the late Rev. Brown, president emeritus of the convention and for many past master of Leadenhall Street Pastor Church, and Rev. R. B., of Ironides, Md., who was president of the Potomac Baptist Association. Rev. R. B., president of the directors of the Baptist change, led of the needs of the name, and Mrs. Quintina Creditt, president of the lady board of managers, strongly urged adequate support.
The collections ran ahead of any previous year. Rev. R. W. Jefferson, pastor of Leadenhall Street Baptist Church, preached Monday
The Baptist Young People's military unit Tuesday, the follow-up was devoted to the work of Sunday Schools and in large of Thursday program, Mrs. Dilletta Penn, the president, delivered an address, accounting the work done during the year.

Some Information
About The Negro and
The Show Business
When the publisher of the BILL-BOARD inaugurated Jackson's Page, in the interest of the colored artist and his employer, many regarded the move as being visionary; as entering a field devoid of possibilities.
This seemed true, because few, even in the amusement business, were aware of tremendous artistic and financial strides that had been made in this particular field in the past decade.
The first six months of cultivation in this phase of the theoretical enterprise has disclosed the following interesting facts. Already there is listed on the desk of the editor:
87 Picture houses, nine of which are equipped for shows.
112 These houses playing vaudeville performances and pictures.
112 Are owned by white persons, five of these managed by Negro managers.
174 Are owned and managed by Negroes.
14 The race of the management has not been ascertained. A total of 206, 81 are connected with organized circuits.

ducing pictures with Negro casts.
Seven of these are owned by Negroes.
9 Parks in five different states have communicated with the editor of the page, as has four fair associations.
47 Theatrical companies and twelve companies with carnivals are listed on the desk.
Medicine men, scene painters, composers, authors, modistes, advance agents and singers are among these folks. 170 Vaudeville and burlesque actors have approved the page by order of the public calls. These represented more than 500 partners or associations in their respective acts.
On a recent trip across seven states, going as far South as Chattanooga and as far West as Chicago, 377 colored performers and 857 musicians of the race were encountered.
The 104 papers holding franchises in the Associated Negro Press, 32 were found to have established theatrical departments.

And Walker Retires From Partnership In Joyland Company
The title of The Joyland Girls Company, formerly owned by Martin and Walker, now reads Edgar Martin's Joyland Company, Mr Walker having disposed of his interest in the company.
Bobbie Bramlette, former stage director of the Ella Goodloe Company, has joined the show, his former job being discontinued because of an accident to Miss Goodloe that compelled her to close the show pending her recovery.
The Joyland show was most popular by the correspondent in Indiana, Pearl Bay, Pearl Lee McPhecters James McPhecters, Isabelle Foster, Helen Dugley, Peggy Burrette, Hazel Duncan, Mabel Foster, Harvey Duckett, Edgar Martin and Bobbie Bramlette are in the company.
To Tour South
Handy Bros' Band representing the "Home of the Blues" under the personal direction of Prof. Handy who made this type of music popular, will tour the South during the month of May, then jump into Chicago for a big concert. Louisville, Memphis, the home of the organization, and New Orleans are among the cities to be visited.
Eddie Grey, the famous tenor will accompany the band as soloist. Among the numbers of his repertoire to be used are "Loveless Love," "I Like You" and "Pickin'in'ny Rose."
Company Re-organize
Paul Carter and Billy Mitchell have dissolved partnership. Mr. Carter retains the company they formerly owned; and is presenting Willie Jones as the feature in a piece called "The Root-Litters." Carter, who wrote the songs "A Woman Gets Tired of One Man all the Time" and "The Hound Dog Ball" is the author. The Revamped Company opened at the Star, Pitsburg, on May 9th.
AIN THEA pp. THE HOME OF GR
An Interesting War Book
"Two colored women with the American Expeditionary forces" is the title of a book by Addie W. Hunton and Kathryn M. Johnson, Ex-Y. M. C. A. workers with the 150,000 Negro soldiers who served in the A. E. F.
The story is so interestingly told that it contains the element of several movie sceneries. There is pahos, humor, tragedy and some extremaity. The "Tin" Europe Band is a well deserved feature. It is published by the Brooklyn Eagle Press.
This authentic story should be eagerly studied by our producers for its dramatic worth.
Burlesque Re-newals
Practically all of the colored acts that were with barlesque companies last season have been contracted to the same attractions for the coming season. Some hold agreements for a number of years. The Byron Brothers have been the Musical Spillers stay with the Peek-a-Boo Company; Tennessee Ten will get their mail care of the Follytown show for a long time to come; Lula Coates who is taking a flyer in vandeville for the summer with her Picks is again holding a Hurtig and Seamon signature; Bonnie Wilson Eddie Green and Wilson three singles with as many different shows will all answer roll call next season at the same old stands, they can go fishing without a worry this summer.
Hotels In Pennsylvania
Some very embarrassing incidents are reported as the results of the operations of a Pennsylvania law that is said to have recently been slipped then the legislature of the state. The law forbids the housing of colored persons and white people in the same house. While this law is a travesty on democracy and its enforcement an insult and injustice to the travelling Negro performer, yet it serves the very excellent purpose of encouraging the establishment of some basic needed hotels for the travelers. With more hotels like the Vincennes in Chicago, in the different cities of the country, such law would offer no inconvenience.

THE NEW LINCOLN
Noyes and Watts' Musical Comedy Company is now pavilion at the New Lincoln this week. Hazel Gray heads the female contingent supported by Juanna Jones and Evelin Winfield. A quartette of chorus girls complete this contingent. The comedy is lead by Sap Rhodes supported by Kustas Winfield and Win. Floyd. While the company offers nothing original, their efforts were sufficiently compelling to win several awards at the opening performance. The usual picture program was presented.
THE NEW REGENT
Davis and Walker in an acrobatic dancing and singing number are the outstanding members of the
group that comprise the vaudeville end of the bill at the Regent this week. Miss Walker has a very good voice which she show in this vicinity for quite a little time, and the audience who see her boy is out of the big harangue wheed; Hayes and Hayes who are making their first appearance on the local boards, comprise the vaudeville fare at the Star this

THE NEW RAINBOW
The New Rainbow opened the week with Pearl White in "The Thief" as the major attraction. It was repeated on Tuesday. Admirers of the peelless Pearl doublestones were surprised to find that in this one of her latest offerings, she has forsaken her love for the wicked of the underworld among whom her sturdy fist and her ever-ready "22" used to raise such havoc in behalf of justice, and has elected to embark upon the highway of "swell" society; thus to become a tear-wringer instead of a jaw-swinger, as it were. Who among her nieces ever had in touch, however, she gets away with it in fairly good style.
The story is based upon the play of the same name which met with much success on the speaking stage a number of years ago. It tells how a wife, discovering that her husband admires well-dressed women, and being too poor to secure the sort of clothes to make herself attractive, fears that she will eventually lose his love. They go to visit for the summer creation, a rich friend who was a school chum of the wife's. Finding a hostess keeps her spending money the less she consumes one steals it, and presently becomes famous as the best-dressed woman of the summer college. The truth eventually comes to light, the thief is forgiven by her friend, and the hug having the good sense to appreciate that such love is pure in this world, takes her to his bosom and they depart for Brazil to begin all over again.
Today Jack Pickford in "The Man Who Had Everything" will be shown. And on tomorrow "The Ross of the Ranch" featuring Roy Stewart will be the attraction, "Passion" now being shown in the biggest houses in this and other cities, and said to be the finest example of film art ever shown is shortly to appear at this house, as is also Charlie Chaplin in "The Kid."
THE CAREY
On next Monday the Carey management will offer "A Woman of Business" as the feature attraction, it is a 7-heel production. This picture is based on the novel, "Nothing a Year" and should greatly appeal to the ladies, for it tells the story of a wife who has a hard struggle to make a living. And that wife doesn't have the same "struggle" no matter how well "fixed" friend husband may be. Beautiful olive Tell will show how it can be done—at least in REEL life, if not in real life. On the same day "Mrs." Joe Martin, the famous stage ape will be shown in a comedy entitled "A Monkey Hero." On the following Tuesday, Bille Burke will appear in a 5-heel feature entitled "The Stafford Mystery." The host also includes "Of the Day" which will also be on this day. Another big serial entitled "The Sky Ranger" featuring George B. Seitz of "Velvet Fingers" fame will soon begin at this house.
THE STAR
Morton and Brown, the classy singing duo who have been entertaining in this vicinity for quite a little while, Eddie Green, the Holiday more gorgeous wicked, Hayes and Hayes who are making their first appearance on the local boards, comprise the vaudeville fare at the Star this week.
The first three mentioned were at the Regent last week, and have already been reviewed in this column. The latter team offer nothing out of the ordinary. Their act being the usual singing, dancing and

"Behold My Wife' the big special feature which was shown at the Dunbar on Tuesday drew large audiences at every showwing. On next Tuesday another splendid show was offered in "Madonnas and Men." This picture tells the story of a king of finance who having been cheated of the girl he loved in his youth finds her the mother of a beautiful daughter years later and seeks to revenge himself by forcing her into a marriage with him, blinded and drowned during the unfolding of the story, some reaching far back into the time of the glory of the Roman Empire.
"The Matchless Key" the Negro serial produced by the Holman White Film Corporation will shortly be shown at two of the local houses. The producers of this, the first Negro serial in the history of filmmaking, claim that the wastes the first Negro serial was added at the Lincoln Theatre some days ago, was not a success, was because the management of this house owing to some disagreement with the producers made no effort to give the projection the co-operation of the operator, which the producers claim was absolutely necessary that cofed people do not photograph in the same manner as do white people.

Harris Dickson has already selected locations and will supervise the details of production.
FOOTLIGHTS AND FADE OUTS
Clarence Dodson the colored dancer, who made such a hit at the Maryland theater week, was anAMPLE of the fact that it is possible for a Negro performer to become a success on the stage, especially the white stage without smearing his face with burnt cock and dressing in the manner of a lively-stable employee.
If you have an act worth while audiences will not be long in discovering the fact, and a dignified presentation will only enhance their appreciation of your work.

SIMMONS HEADS
AIR SERVICE
Ku Klux Klan Leader To
Lead Organization Of
Ex-service Men
By Associated Negro l’ress
Chicago. ML. May 18—Colenel
William J. Simmons, the high and
mighty “imperial, wizard” of the
Kiu Kits Klan, has been chosen
head of the new fraternal organi-
mation recently formed by former
otlicers of the United States Air
Servier. Colonel Simons trans-
cendent abilities as an organizer is
given as the first reason for his
superlutively supreme success as
the chief promoter and founder
of the Ku Klux Klan sets him out
as the one man in the country who
possessed the high ability and
spirit of Americanism — deemed
necessary to rejuvenate the rapid-
ly decaying American Air Service.
The petition to Colonel Simmons
begging his acceptance of the pesi-
tion of commander of the aviators
organization was discussed at an
executive migeting of the ‘supreme
body of the Ku Klux Klan held in
the city of Atkinta, Ga., before the
tender was aecepted Major Reed
Landis, who happens to be te
son of Judge Kenesaw Mountain
Landis of this city was picked for
the post of vies commander in
“The Knights of the Air Service.”
A quick denial of either official
or sympathetic relation with the
Ku Kiux Klan has been brought
forward by the men in this section
woh have given the “Air Service
movement their indorsement and
co-operation. Major Landis, in
response to a query of the Asso-
ciated Negro Press declared that
Colonel Simmon’s selection as com-
mander of the aviator’s organiza-
tion was determined by the knowl-
cdve of the wizard’s superlative
abilities as an organizer,
“The Knights of the Air" has
no connection otticial or otherwise,
with the Ku Klux Klin.” declared
Major Landis in answer to the
question of the Associated Negro
Press representative. “Colonel
Simmons was, chosen as_comman-
der because of his splendid abilities
as an organizer. Aviation has
suffered a terrific slump in the
United States since the close of the
tate war. Only two men out of
one hundred who were in the war
service are now to be found in its
active engagement, This branch
ot the Army service must be
strengthened. All Americans are
cligibie, Any Negro who shows
uptitiude in this direction will. be
rordially welcomed in our ranks
Twill not have connection with an}
movement that does not stand for
whole and complete Americanism:
[have no brief for the Klu Kius
Kian, Neither will 1 lend my sup:
port to RAY Movement that eounte-
sances the procktimed » tenets of
that ceeaniwation.””

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 erase 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 music industry but in others as well, wherever they have been called to labor. One or two may be named who are not only a credit 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 of such benefit to the public that the results have been the opening of the two extra studios in six months. Five assistant teachers were added and the third studio which was opened April 10, was the most direct result of the successful three months course. It is a very interesting feature to observe a pupil enter today who knows nothing about his instrument and absolutely nothing about music, then, in three months time hear them play several of their favorite tunes. It sounds almost incredible, but so does the day after day, the day after day watching this development, but they have entered into the work with a zenine conscientious, whole hearted spirit.
The success of the steamboat, the telegraph, the telephone and also the automobile was doubted by many and even scouted at in the beginning; the same may be said of the Baltimore School of Medicine, but whenever a utility or an institution establishes itself in spite of unfavorable opinion, its value to humanity has been proved beyond a

PROHIBITION!!!
FEW PEOPLE, probably, among our race realize the effect of PROHIBITION on the Amusement World.
SIMULTANEOUS with the passing of the Volstate Act, the number of theatregoers increased two-fold, as is easily evidenced by the large number of theatres and motion picture houses erected in the city in the past two years. The reason for the increase is obvious.
THE POINT IS, HOWEVER, that a realization of the above fact should induce the investing public to take advantage of the unprecedented situation by putting their money in a proposition of this kind, and there is no better opportunity anywhere than the offer of the
DOUGLASS AMUSEMENT CORP.
7 Per Cent Participating
Preferred STOCK in the
The Douglass Theatre
AT $10.00 PER SHARE
THINK of the Rivoli, the Boulevard, the Century and other big local theatres built since July 1st, 1919, and who now have NO stock for sale. THEN make up your mind to ACT.
THE MUSEUM OF THE ARTS AND CULTURE
Now under construction on Pennsylvania avenue near Lanvale street 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.
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.

Boys' Activities
By Charles A. called
Brave creatures called boys-
children
hall to three.
His work I suppose you all want to know something about "Eagle Eye"—that great character of mystery. You want to know who he is, where he lives and a thousand and one questions about him. Ease your mind fellows-"Eagle Eye" is as real as real can be, hundreds of boys who know to know if he was really might yet. Why no! Not on your sweet life! No! Eagle Eye knows that all of the guys are looking for him and he is just chuckling all over—even away down in his shoes to many boys face to face and yet these I known him that wasn't just yesterday. Ah! thought I—now lodge on him.
Old Brownie turned around just at this point so quickly that I for a moment thought I had been caught! I thought he saw me. But thanks to a real big fat man that was crossing the street I was saved by ducking behind him—Mr. Fats. In the Chinese place Mr. Fats ducked and satisfied his appetite by sampling some of the China man's yum, yum Chop-suay! When by bunk Brownie came on all I could see him doing "wiping and smacking his mouth!"
D. S. Nest week.
M. B. McKenna & Harry Evans and
M. Herbert Waters eat "hot
dogs" from a "hot dogie wagon."
Before I say good bye for this
week I want to say to Mr. William
Johnson of Argyle Avenue that I
will speak to him now within forty
five days.
To Vernon Green "my 'pig-
town' pal I admire you—you are
just saying enough funny things
about me to make me laugh until
very same boys are not even bait
sharp enough to know that the
Eagle Eye that they are talking
"Eagle Eye" is a happy-go-lucky good natured guy that knows many many boys himself. He also gets around with many, many, fellows, cats cakes, candy, ice cream peanuts and etc., with them—drinks sodas of all kinds with them, hears the guys talking about him to his face—he is clever enough to shoot the boys "shirt" shirt, stuff him to talk to asking about some himself, without being suspected, other guy then gently slips away. So boys of the Boy's Activities Column, beware! Eagle Eye may be looking at you now while you are reading about him.
This week Eagle Eye himself writes.

Ili, fellow brothers. So you are

WATERS BOYS' CLUB
Our meeting of last week was a righteous one! It was Literary Night—the very best that we have ever had.
The principal speaker of the evening was Mr. Thomas of School 101. His address was brimming full of wholesome advice punctuated with indications from his own experiences.
And Mr. Deaver Boston was there with a comical little sermon on the Athletic Value Play.
The solo by Mr. Earl Williams—"Mammy" was well rendered and well received.
Guyan who rendered "Margie" with orchestra was like wise brightly appurtenated.
The brilliant piano overcure by Mr. Maurice Dodd was charming. The Banjo-Mandolin selected by Mr. Elmer Thomas was a fine frog hair, while Mr. Thomas Powell added a very rich coloration. The name of the solo rendered by Mr. Charles Lakeford in good style. Mr. Lankford just threw his great mouth open and let the sounds "roll" out. Our summer encampment work is in charge of Mr. Herbert Waters and Mr. Lewis Cormack. The "Engle Eye" the boy who think he knows everything, and doesn't know anything. I've been searching for "Engle Eye" ever since I started to search, and I haven't found him yet. But if I ever find him I intend to make him "posse" before my camera and put his picture in the Afro. Look for it soon.

MINISTER SAYS WORLD IS STILL MIGHTY WICKED
Rev. A. C. Jackson Declares That Two-thirds Of Population Are Outside The
ORGANIZATION URGED
Dancing, Race Suicide, And
Modern Fashions Scored
Before Ministers' Union
"The world is still mighty wicked" declared Rev. A. C. Jackson, of Philadelphia, president of the New England Baptist Convention, before the ministers' meeting at Union Baptist Church Monday morning.
"In spite of all the denominations, Protestants and Catholics, including the Washfoot, High Jumpers, and Holy Rollers, only one third of the hundred million people in the United States are members of the Christian Church" declared Rev. Mr. Jackson. He urged a union of the Baptists and organization of all denominations to Christianize America.
Rev. Mr. Jackson urged the local ministers to come to the New England Convention which meets at Hartford, Connecticut June 14, 15 and 16, prepared to attend missions, summa and church extension mission, and church extension fund to aid weaker churches. He also declared the church must wage war on race suicide, card playing, abbreviated fashions for women and dancing.
Rev. Mr. Jones of Lynchburg, also addressed the ministers.

Board of Directors of Provident Hospital met last Thursday night to discuss the pamphlet "Facts" published last week by a number of physicians of the city. The pamphlet which was widely distributed attacked the management of the hospital and virtually demanded the resignation of the superintendent and the Board of Directors. When seen after the meeting adjourned previous memoirs of the Board of Directors admitted that the pamphlet was under discussion but refused to divulge what action was taken by the board.
Physicians who published the pamphlet are also members of the staff of Provident Hospital but no one of the directors would say whether or not their resignation would be called for. That Provident Hospital has advanced greed among the superintendent. Dr. Harry F. Brown and is now self supporting, was the opinion expressed by H. Grafton Browne, secretary of the board of directors of the institution, the other day. "The hospital took in more money last month for operations than ever before." Mr. Browne said. "Its mortality record is extremely low and its record is AJ. We have a comfortable bank balance and no contrast to conditions there when I first became a member of the board. Then we had to pass the hat around to get money for the gas bill."

Frank Pollman (white) 1125 N. Stricker street was found guilty of false pretence in Criminal Court part 2. Friday and sentenced to five months in jail and paying a fine of 225 cents. Hower L. Works (girl) 222 N. Carsey street was dismissed on the same charge.
Complainters against the two white men were made by Mrs. Alice Moody, 168 Mulberry Street, Mrs. S. Lawrence, 164 Vine street, Mrs. Hunt, 167 Mulberry street.
According to the women the white men went from door declaring that they represented a blind school and took orders for the delivery of market baskets at eighty-five cents each. The men are said to obtained stakes in this way and their baskets cultured pean. Pollman admitted that he was not connected with any blind school and had no means of furnishing the baskets. The local branch of the N. A. A. C. P. aided in the case.

Local Chapter Of Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity Aid Worthy Men
That scientists have been unable to discover any differences in the brains and blood of the various human races and that black, yellow, and red as well as the white race are capable of the highest education and culture was the declaration of Dr. J. Stanley Durke, president of Howard University before an audience in Ethel Church Shingle afternoon, Dr. Durke spoke in the interest of the "Cease to High School and go to College Movement" celebrated last week all over the United States under the auspices of the Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity.
According to Dr. Durkee the Negro has the brains as well as the opportunity for the highest education and development and it is his fault and his shame if he fails to make every sacrifice necessary to grant higher training, professors, or faculty in the Baltimore High School, now dean of the Teacher's College in Howard University quoted statistics from many sources to show that college trained men are dominating the fields of business, politics, religion and professions. Music was furnished by the Lincoln University Glee Club. Following the addresses of S. N. B. and R. A. F. with which to establish a scholarship to aid in sending worthy boys and girls through college, Dr. C. N. Kheta presided.

THEIVES GET AWAY WITH $250
WORTH OF DIAMOND AND
JEWELRY
Thieves enter the parsonage of Pethel A. M. E. Church at 1405 Argyle avenue, now occupied by the pastor Rev. Frederick Donglass last Saturday night and made off with $250 worth of diamonds and jewelry. Everyone was out at the time and the robbery was not discontinued. The stabbing occurred when Mrs. Donglass booked for her jewelry box in order to wear her rings to church. Investigation showed the loss of two diamond rings, a wrist watch, gold hunting case watch, a man's pawned and box of miscellaneous jewelry.

JAZZ VERSUS
Has classical music had its day?
No one seems willing to answer this question, but everybody admits that the one and the heavy musicals have lost some of their drawing power.
Once upon a time, phonograph records of Café the great tenor were rated the best sellers by music houses. Then along came McCormick with his "knows" and similar songs still more popular as a new sales mark for "canned music." I remained for Mamie Smith to beat both this song and as a result the company which makes records announces it has sold a million dollars worth of Mamie Smith records.
Cities may regard the performance as a percussion for Miss Smith, the artist, but a older server will note that it is rather indicative of old jazz music has upon the popular for Mr. Wm. E. Ready points out in another concert two musical recitals in this city by real art but scientifically crowded Richmond Mr. Armory to see and hear Lucille Hegeman, a singer and her orchestra. Mr. Ready also calls attention to the fact that the Armory audience composed of persons from every walk of life, including the universal appeal of syncopated music.
If there is any doubt at all that this type music is finding favor with all classes in all of the globe we point out two news items of interest. One of them comes from London and honors that Queen Mary of England in response to surges of Princess Mary and the Princess Haley by the Buckingham Palace Jazz Band. The other item comes from a traveller recounted from the South Sea Islands—James Noall, white, writing in the current number harper Magazine recalls a native jazz orchestra consisting of three pieces—two hollow word orders and an old army drum of the Napoleonic period. Three native women sang to the syncopated accompaniment:
No one seems willing to answer this question definitely, but everybody admits that the operas and the heavy musicals have lost some of their drawing power.
Once upon a time, phonograph records of Caruso, the great tenor were rated the best sellers by music houses. Then along came McCormick with "Who Knows" and similar songs still more popular and set a new sales mark for "canned music." It remained for Mamie Smith to beat both this spring and as a result the company which makes her records announces it has sold a million dollars worth of Mamie Smith records.
Critics may regard the performance as a personal triumph for Miss Smith, the artist, but a older observer will note that it is rather indicative of the hold jazz music has upon the popular fancy. Mr Wm. T. Ready points out in another column two musical recitals in this city by real artists see but scantily noticed by the musical public, which nevertheless crowded Richmond. Market Armory to see and hear Lucille Hogeman, a "birds" singer and her orchestra. Mr. Ready also calls attention to the fact that the Armory audience was composed of persons from every walk of life, indicating the universal appeal of syncopated music. If there is any doubt at all that this type of music is finding favor with all classes in all sections of the globe we point out two news items of the week. One of them comes from London and announces that Queen Mary of England in response to repeatedurgings of Princess Mary and the Prince of Wales has ordered that the latest jazz numbers be played by the Buckingham Palace Jazz Band.
The other item comes from a traveller recently returned from the South Sea Islands—James Norman Hall, white, writing in the current number of Harpers Magazine recalls a native jazz orchestra consisting of three pieces—two hollow word cylinders and an old army drum of the Napoleonic period. Three native women sang to the syncopated accompaniment: "Tu Fua to notta mi!"
Which he interprets to mean "Shoo fly! Don't bother me."

With the strike of the marine workers as a protest against a twenty per cent reduction in wages, will upon its third week, the colored man finds himself in an anomalous position.
Between the devil, and the sea, he does not know whether it is more advantageous for his group to accept, work as a scab and strikebreaker in order to earn bread or look for employment elsewhere.
This much is certain, except in a few individual cases little will be gained by taking the former course.
Organized capital as represented by the steamboat owners is not friendly to Negro labor or any labor except as it will work for low wages. If the owners come to an understanding with the Unious, colored strikebreakers will find themselves out of a job. If they do not come to an agreement, colored workers will find that the low wages and long hours are just as calling to them as to their predecessors.
Neither is organized labor as friendly to the colored worker as it might be. Altho the colored marine stewards are organized into a strong local, other locals like the engineers, firemen and watertenders have not offered the same opportunity. Not only is this true with regard to marine workers, but the only reason today why colored men do not enjoy larger employment as plumbers, carpenters and masons is the stern and hostile attitude of organized labor.
While these things are true; while it is evident that the colored worker must fight for a square deal in the labor unions, nevertheless it is to labor, rather than capital, that he must look for the solution of his problem. Both need him to win. If he is with capital his status will always remain below that of union men—to be used only in case of strikes. If he is with labor, his status will be the same as that of union men. Except as an organized worker, either in unions of his own or in common unions with white workers, the colored worker can hope for no immediate or permanent improvement in his scale of wages, standard of employment o
A USEFUL FOURTH OF JULY
If the Maryland Tuberculosis Association succeeds in its present plan of securing the consent of the city to use the city-wide celebration of the fourth of July at Druid Hill Park to secure subscriptions and pledges for its proposed Preventorium for Colored Children, some useful purpose will have been served.
In former years, the idea back of a Fourth of July celebration seems to have been to burn up as much money as available in fireworks with a maximum of noise and a minimum of accidents. More recently this has been changed and the holiday used to perspade the public to see the benefit of a day of healthful recreation in the city parks.
In addition to this, the Association plans to use Independence Day to call attention to its health crusade against Tuberculosis and the need of an institution to prevent the spread of the disease among children. Such a proposal should have not only the consent of the city officials but the hearty public endorsement it deserves in order to insure its success.
PRESIDENT KING IN PHILADELPHIA
Neither Washington or Baltimore gave the Honorable C. B. D. King, president of the West African Republic of Liberia, the welcome he received on an official visit to Philadelphia last week.
President King was in the capital of the nation more than a month before he saw President Harding. He paid numerous visits to Baltimore without any unusual municipal demonstration in his honor. In Philadelphia however, he came by invitation of Mayor Moore, and was received as befitted his rank in the City Hall. From this place the President rode with the Mayor to Independence Hall where a wreath was placed upon the spot where Lincoln stood and proclaimed emancipation. The distinguished visitor was taken to see the famous Liberty Bell and afterwards seated in the chain Washington used to sign the Declaration of Independence. Mr. King was presented to a crowd which filled the streets before Independence Hall and taken upon a sightseeing tour of the city which took in the grave of Benjamin Franklin.
As a fitting-climax Mayor Moore and his official family sat with President King at a banquet in the Hotel Dale. Covers were laid for two hundred and fifty guests. This was the kind and class of official recognizer President King received in Madrid and Paris enroute to the United States, and it remained for Philadelphia, to show the rest of us that there are American cities, which know how to be courteous to black men.
FIFTH ASSISTANT ATTORNEY
GENERAL
In sending in to the Senate the name of Perry Howard for Fifth Assistant Attorney General, President Harding, has made his first appointment of a colored man as a member of his official family. News bureaus had word of the impending appointment for some time, but were not at liberty to publish it until the list was sent in to the Senate Friday. Undoubtedly the Senate will confirm, and Mr. Howard will assume the position formerly held by Mr. Wm. H. Lewis of Boston eight years ago under-President Taft. As a highly successful lawyer in his home state of Mississippi, Mr. Howard will undoubtedly prove an able assistant to Attorney General Dougherty besides occupying a position where his knowledge and ability will enable him to be of large service to his people.
Southerners had just begun to congratulate the President because he had made no appointments of colored men, and colored men themselves were chafing at the President's delay when the announcement of the Howard appointment came. Now that the dead line has been crossed and the Wilson policy of appointing no colored officeholders thrown into the discard, it is to be hoped that the Taft policy will also be cast aside and President Harding proceed to appoint also colored Republicans to posts outside of the nation's capital.
ANOTHER WASHINGTON MONUMENT
Twenty-five years ago, Booker T. Washington made his first public appearance before a Washington audience. On that occasion the great educator came to the capital at the invitation of Hepry Laster, whose death was recorded in the news columns of the AFRO-AMERICAN last week.
At that time the dispute between Washington as leader of the group who believed industrial education as best for the Negro and Dr. W. E. B. DuBois, as exponent of the higher education as well as the other, was at its highest pitch. Mr. Washington had spoken at the famous meeting in Boston at which William Monroe Trotter and others are said to have used pepper or emriff in order to throw the speaker into a fit of sneezing and break up the meeting. The meeting was broken up and Mr. Trotter arrested.
Friends of Mr. Washington wondered whether or not a similar reception awaited him in Washington. Crowds packed and jammed Metropolitan Church the afternoon of the address, overflowed into the downstairs lecture room filling it, and congregated one hundred deep into M street in front of the church. Mr. Washington stopped in the Lassiter home, and as he made his way to the church, and saw the huge crowd gathered there, he wondered whether it was a demonstration of friendliness or hostility. When he entered the main auditorium after going into the building by a rear door, he found out that the people of Washington had carried their hearts to him.
opened their new building. Next week Tuskegee Institute unveils a monument of marble in honor of Booker Washington, founder of the Institute and the chief exponent of industrial education in American schools. A photograph of the monument and a description will be printed in these columns next week. Hundreds of thousands of people thrust to the country who contributed their mites to build it have some idea of the battles fought by the great educator before he succeeded in getting a hearing for his ideas.
Chicago Daily News
The first national banking institution in the country to be controlled by colored citizens—the Douglas National bank of Chicago—today received its charter the company in the currency in following the visit there of P. W. Chavers, Chicago colored leader, Chavers operates a woman's garment factory at 354 East 43rd street. In requirement from an insoluble affair, becoming its receiver and director and reorganizing it as the Morechants and Peoples bank, which he later expanded into the present organization. Only one white man is connected with the organization in any capacity. This is Oliver Finston Smith, president of the Citizens Savings and Trust Company of South State St. He becomes chairman of the board of directors. Ald. R. R. Jackson of the 2nd ward is vice president. The board of directors include the Rev. Mr. Robinson, pastor, pastor of the South State St. He becomes chairman of the board of directors. Ald. R. R. Jackson of the 2nd ward is vice president. The board of directors include the Rev. Mr. Robinson, pastor, pastor of the South State St. He becomes chairman of the board of directors at 31st and South State streets.
First Of Its Kind Nationally
While the South has many banks owned and controlled by colored men, doing a large banking business exclusively with colored men, the South under state supervision and never before have colored men become heads of a national bank. The institution is operated by the 2,000,000 $30,000 surplus. The bank, which is located at West 32nd and South State Streets, was originally the private banking institution controlled by it. It has become a colored man. He got himself into difficulties and became insolvent to the extent of $30,000 belonging to depositors. He went into voluntary receivership and was sold, not only to save the institution, not so much for Woolfoll, as he explained, but that the colored depositors should not loss their money and be criticized because of a colored bank failure. It is rumored throughout the south side that it cost Chavers $30,000 to own the bank and pay dollar for dollar to every depositor.
BEST FRIEND
OF THE RACE
Magazine Says It Is The Colored Newspaper
From Method Magazine
Taking it by and large, if you were asked what has been the strongest moral force (aside from the Church) in the upbuilding of the race in America, what you answer you answer, the nation has unanimously the battles of the race? What power has upheld the race in its upward struggle for half a century? What medium has ungrippingly stood sponsor for educational, political, financial, trial, condemn and financial dealments so often without compensation or any thought thereof? Start any kind of movement on earth in any of the whole four branches of human activity, and the first step is PUBLICITY "NEWSPAPER." That's your answer.
The Negro newspaper is unselfishly contributed column after column of space to all kinds of causes, both worthy and harmless, and to the building of cathedrals; and as even done so at actual financial loss, but out of faith in its people. The public has been so accustomed to call on the newspaper as a free means of proclaiming of course, the practice has become almost an abuse. But the Negro newspaper has gone on under the load, never finching from its duty to proclaim the just causes of its patrons—I can't about time that reward is in or bestow upon the Negro newspaper der? The biggest reward you can is to Read it. It lives by its advertisements and its advertisements are secured on its circulation and its circulation is YOU, the reader.
Then, too in order to get Negro news in full, you must read Negro newspaper. There are many family, white and other periodicals, but their columns are so crowded with the business of their own people (and justly so) that they have little time and space to devote to Negro activity, as such. You all it to yourself to know what your race is doing. You can know it but one way—the way of the Negro press. Read the Negro newspaper. Its the race's best friend.

She must not expend the valuable
energy required of her in the office

family linen or drying the tea cups.
For father and brother never do

CIVIL SERVICE NOT "CIVIL"
Candidates For Employment
In Government . Depart-

Time In D. C.
Washington D. C. Dispatch
By Associated Negro Press
The keystone of governmental discrimination is the Civil Service discrimination. They have worked the scheme to a "frack-sicklin," as they say in Indiana—meaning the "umptuously" part of a fraction, where it has been demonstrated that the lowest possible grades are given Colored applicants, especially in speaking, but you hear witness that even with handicaps, colored applicants make a higher average than the majority of whites.
The Martial Wilson executive order system of compelling applicants to be photographed, is wholly out of harmony with civil rights. Notwithstanding this prism face method, hundreds of applicants are certified for various positions, only to find when they the place has just been filled.
During war, times there were large numbers of pathotic instances where both men and women were on the battlefield, only to notice, only to find the door closed in their faces. Each of the various bugues have what is known as the "pointmen" and the "pointmen" are "deer." These are the goats, and the ones who do dirty work in the matter of appointments, but it could not be carried on successfully without endurance of the "man on ton."
From Clerk To Messenger
Take a specific case - in point that happened recently in the department of Commerce, under Secretary of Commerce, Mr. Young Colored man was sent personally by the Secretary to the appointment clerk with the instruction that he be certified by the Civil Service. The automatic appointment clerk informed the young man that he would have to work among whites and the best I can do now is place you on as a messenger. "Can you beat that 'for nerve' that are hundreds of cases like it?"
There are hundreds of persons in Washington departments who are capable of being chiefs, who are capable of leading their so-called chiefs, and are called upon to perform his duties, and yet they are not permitted to advance, and are scores of officers, colleges, or are hanging on with the hope that time will some day give them a chance to measure up. Young officers are with equal force and determination for an opportunity to work for the government, except many of them have the additional battle for control in a manner very much in keeping with certain regional ethics.

A LETTER BOX FOR THE PEOPLE
THEY EXPRESS CONFIDENCE IN PRESIDENT HARDING.
To the Editor:
The National Equal Right Law requires the following communication to President Harding.
To the President, Warren G. Harding,
ing,
House, Washington, D. C.
The National Equal Rights League, in which Colored Americans are banded together for the full rights of their people, is the report in the Colored American newspaper to congratulate you upon your true and honorable Americanism which holds and unAmerican position of white employees of the Federal Government against the appointment of Colored Americans to the United States to official position wherein such will have authority over them. This is exactly what we expected in your letter. We are not surprised that you intend, we feel sure to accord equal rights to all, regardless of race, color or creed. Respectfully submitted for the reason.

GENERAL MARCH AND DRAFT DODGER GROVER BERGDOLL
BY WILLIAM PICKENS
The Associated Negro Press
Newspapers are not always to be
trusted, but according to the papers
General March, high officer of the
United States Army, has holdy
proclaimed before - members of
the congress of - Bergdoll, that he has
approved of the efforts made to kidnip
Bergdoll out of Germany in spite of and regardless of international law. He admits that the attempted kidnapping was wrong
the standpoint of international law."
Now, it is not for us to say whether the General is right or wrong, so far as we can make some CONPARISONS. We can show that if the General is right, then certain other things are also right. Bergdoll, the cewardly draft runner, had the same respect for national law that general March expresses for international law. But the army law or no law
In 1914 the Germans invaded Belgium, because the Germans were in that same state of mind; the little trifle of international diplomacy, the desirees; and they swept it away with the same contempt with which General March sweeps away the very ancient law, which forbids the officers of one nation from entering into a conflict, so saving an individual,—in time of peace or of armistice. General March finds it irksome to be fooling with "international law" in such cases, and boldly decrees that it is the injustice to "get" Bergdoll "at any price,"—which we interpret to mean by any means, fair or foul." And we are justified in this. Interpretation, because the General says that those who tempt the international crime of supplying, have his "entire sympathy."
Law is sometimes inconvenient, a great inconvenience. It is an inconvenience to the murderer, the burglar, the draft-dodger, the caped convict, the deserter, who wish to have great helpings to other people.
But we have been accounted to judge a civilized man by acts in the law of the law,—those inconvenience of the law,—whether he tries to amend it or to violate it—both of them MAY_BE right, but there is certainly not, more different, a kind of Drug-Druger and the International Bully. "He that swears to his own life."

However, the value of the achievements rests upon something more important than money—the fine community effect, the leadership developed, the improvement in living standards, the general all-around rise in agriculture and the general impressible be deep impressed by the work reports of some of these Southern women and girls, results accomplished, very often, under conditions of unusual difficulty and discouragement.
An example of what may be accomplished, under the stimulus of the home demonstration work and with encouragement and cooperation in the home is afforded by the case of Mrs. Jim Dorris, of Ear, Ark, who enjoys the beauty of her husband in the work she is doing. With from three to six cows this couple sold, from January 1 to December, last year, $458.85 worth of milk and $495.75 of butter; and from 69 kgs $249.80 worth of eggs. This $1,200 from side lines, coming in through the year, is important on any farm, and in many cases is a form of insurance against crop failures.

BIRTH OF NATION IN N. Y. AGAIN
The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, 70 Fifth Avenue, New York, today issued a statement signed by James Weldon Johnson secretary, stating that a test case would be made of the protest against the performance in the Capitol Theatre, New York, of the motion picture, "The birth of a Nation."
"The colored veterans of foreign service who distributed leaflets in front of the Capital Theatre," said Mr. Johnson's statement, "and were arrested for so doing are to make legal history in the courts of New York. On Thursday morning, May 12 in the West Side Court, Magistrate Ten Eyck offered, to discuss the charges against them if they would promise not to picket the Capital Theatre any more.
"Through their attorneys, Alken A. Pope and James C. Thomas, retained by the A. A. C. Y. Thomas, make any such promise and preferred to make a test case of it. Accordingly Magistrate Ten Eyck found them guilty and suspended sentence. The cases must be beaten A. A. C. Y. Thomas."
"The New York ordinance under which the pickets were arrested prohibits the distribution of any hand bill, circular, card or other advertising matter" and the appeal to a higher court will be based upon the contention that the N. A. O. C. P., jacket distributed by pickets, showing in the "Birth of a Nation" cannot possibly be called "advertising matter."
"The N. A. A. C. P. appeal will raise the entire question as to the right of people to protest by distributing educational literature in public in New York City. The question of the construction of the ordinance is a new one and has not before been addressed." N. A. A. C. P. intends to fight the case until a conclusion is reached. The matter is entirely one of legal principle as it was admitted in court by Magistrate Ten Eyck that no disorder was charged

In the course of the interview the committee, given that it is the purpose of the present Administration to be fair and fast with all, from time to time there will be developments in demonstrations that will prove to the cause the sincerity of purpose of Administration. "TIM ATLANTA SPEECH" The Associated Negro Press presently discussed with the president his speech in Atlanta which caused such a round of protest. It was noted that the colored people in the country generally had been impressed with his many acts for justice during the police attack in Boston, and his briefly exposing in the course of his speech of incontinence; however, it is the soil of the Southern visit, that his Southern visit had changed his view.
Without hesitation, the Vice President declared that his view had not been changed, and that he is just as anxious now, as to be fair to all, and to see him as a square figure. And he said that he did not offend him for it, he justified that the wise course to pursue is for good of ladhouses who live in South to assume a friendly attitude toward each other.

Started 15 Years Ago As Stationary Engineer Now Captain. Of Excursion Steamer And Owner Of Brown's Grove
P
Nearly fifty years ago the late Captain Wheatley, father of Raymond and Dr. Edward J. Wheatley, owned an excursion boat and grove, and Baltimoreans of that day patrolled him, among twenty years ago William Lewis and several others would bring the Jane Mosely over from Washington and run a few excursions, but it has remained for Captain Brown to make, the business a permanent in succession in 1906 with a very small capital, but a large amount of faith, the steamer Newbill carried excursions to Brown's Grove, then located on Bear Creek. The business increased to such proportions that a new grove was the Third District of Anne Arundel secured on the coast and the steamer Starlight purchased. This vessel was burned down a few years ago and Captain Brown secured another vessel in New Jersey. He successfully piloted the boat down the Atlantic seaboard and into Baltimore. When he left Baltimore he acquired Captain Brown had to employ a white pilot, but later learned enough about running a vessel to be licensed as his own heisman. The Starlight has carried thousands of excursionists to Brown's Grove, which is a well-appointed place in the city, and many from the counties have at one time or another run outings there.
A native of North Carolina, Captain Brown came to this city years ago and started out as a stationary engineer. He knew what primitives meant, he told a representative of the AFRO-AMERICAN, "but, believe that any man may achieve success who sticks everlastingly at it and has faith in himself and the people."

IN BUSINESS
A CENTURY
Over 100 Years Ago
The death of Mrs. Harriett A Hilliard last week brings to mind the fact that the house furnishing business of which she was head has been conducted for more than a hundred years. The business was founded by the grandmother of her husband, Thomas J. Hilliard, who died several years ago. At first sales were continued in the city markets and later a store Oregon and Spring streets was acquired. The business flourished and they enjoyed a lucrative trade.
Morton Chase, who is now in the undertaking business, is running a concern that was started by his grandfather, over sixty years ago. His father, the late Samuel W. Chase was in business for nearly a half century. George W. Towson, who runs the express, wagons, started in 1865, and probably holds the one record of continuously following one line.
R. H. Knight, produce; Albert Johnson, the contractor; James W. Hughes, caterer; Benjamin Hamilton, noilery; Marshall's Grocery, L. H. Davenport, Cortellius Jones, produce dealer; John H. Toadvin, underaker; Samuel B. Bishop, transfer man and I. J. Brown, undertaker are among the men who have been in business for over forty years. Samuel T. Hemsley is running the undertaking business founded by his father the late Alexander Hemsley, over forty years ago. Mrs. Bettie Ellis is in charge of the undertaking establishment of her late husband, Robert A. Elliott, and Mrs. George Hooner conducts the funeral directing concern started by the late Rev. Harcules Rosa.

LUCILLE HEGEMAN
"Blues" Singer Unable To Give Program At The Richmond Market Armory
The first visit of Miss Lucille Hegeman to this city, since becoming famous as a maker of "blues" records, brought a crowd to Richmond Market Armory last Friday night.
And the crowd that was present left no doubt that "Jazz" is an initial king of the genre of music—if jazz can be called music—some say it is not. Recently the writer has attended a number of concerts given by artists who have spent years of study and hundreds of dollars in fitting themselves for a musical career, and yet when they appeared on the occasions noted, less than a hundred people were present to greet them;
But on last Friday night—? Oh boy! What a mob. Every conceivable type of humanity had gathered in good-natured spirit, drawn by the magic of a language all could understand.
Totally "Jazz," the greatest democratizer this country has yet produced.
The necessities of the Armory—to say nothing of the lack of capable management in handling the crowd which proceeded to well-nigh swamp the singer when she appeared on the stage, or to reach an impossible to reach any definite conclusion as to the musical ability of either the singer or her "syncopators."
Miss Hegeman is a "handsome young woman, of medium height, and light-brown complexion. She was beautifully gowned and radiated health, happiness, joy and laughter. She appeared to be anxious to carry out her program, but after several ineffectual attempts, gave up and contented herself to wander through the mazes of humanity that pressed about her.

ELK'S CAVORT IN ANNUAL MINSTREL SHOW
Lyric Crowded To Witness Original Skits By Adams And Sims
On last Thursday evening, notwithstanding the fact that old man Jupiter Pluvius had been batting one thousand in the "weather league" all day, and gave no evidence of striking out as the shadows of evening gathered; some thousand or more persons made their way to the Lyric to witness the annual trole of the local
lodge in space.
The "show" was divided into
three floor scenes.
two acts in the principal scene of the first act, the usual minstrel setting with the performers sliding in a semi-circle around the interlancer and that of the second act, the ruthskeller of the Elks' Home. Wm. Butler and Wm. Gross were the "hones" and "dambo" and made quite a hit with some original as well as some less original jokes.
They were assisted in the funnelling by Messrs. Harry Thomas, Cy Tolliver, Henry Bellfield and Leo Edwards. All of whom were in blackface and wore the regulation outfit usually associated with this style of entertainment. Master Gabriel Maddox similarly adorned was. Introduced as the world's youngest amateur comedian. The others participating in the performance were evening dress. Galbraith Adams and Charles Gladden were the interlocutors. A dozen or more solos of popular song hits were rendered during the evening and each soloist was generously applauded and forced to give encues. In the final show was rendered in connection with the show was far less satisfactory.
This was furnished by the Elks' band and an orchestra under the leadership of Professor Llewellyn Wilson.
But although it was apparent that these two sets of musicians had not rehearsed together as sufficiently as they should have; much of this fault could have been remedied had Mr. Wilson been in position to use his baton exclusively. Instead of having to play as the show was written and staged by Galbraith Adams and Norman Simms.

Springtime Dance Recital At St.
Mary's Hall Before Crowded
Houso
Dressed in their Sunday-go-to-
meeting dimpled knees and bare
feet, the Luis Interpretavie Dancers
gave their second annual
springtime Dance Recital in St.
Mary's Hall Friday night under the
direction of Mr. Lewis H. Murray.
The performers were fresh from a
recent triumph in Wilmington,
Detaware.
Actually, the nine young, women
wore a little more than dimples.
As a matter of fact their attire
consisted of a half yard or more of
some filmy material and in some
cases socks, but all of this was
gotten by the influence of five
younger persons who applauded the grace and skill of the performers.
A scarf dance by Miss Ethel
Caution, an oriental dance by
Miss-Constantia Wharton, attired
for this occasion in costume of the
far East, a spanish Fandango by
Miss-Grace Murray, and Sadie
Prince, a Sphinx dance by Miss
Bernice Calloway, a waist by
Miss Calloway, Miss Daisy
and Dorothy were among, the numbers which were exceedingly well done. The aeroplane waize Miss Wharton and Mr. Murray in street dress also called for repeated encores; the dancers included Misses Justine Néal and Etta Burwell. Miss-Wharton and Miss Constantia Frazier were the accompanists. Dancing followed.
