UNDER $1,500 BAII
Alleged Elder In Seventh Day Adventist Church Charged With Writing Black Hand Letters
Threats Made To Kill Whites Unless Large Sums Were Paid
Frederick, Md., Jan. 12.—Rev. James E. Hall, who said he is an elder in the Church of God and the Seventh Day Adventist, was arrested last Thursday and held under $1,500 bail on the charge of writing black hand letters last March to Holmes D. Baker (white), vice-president of the Citizens National Bank, Judge Glen H. Worthington and former Sheriff Wortenberger.
The minister was arrested by post office inspector Conner, of Washington, and Sheriff Jones, and Deputy Smith while in the midst of conducting an evangelistic service in Nazarite Hall on All Saints street.
The letters threatened court authorities, charging them with misconduct in the trial of Charles Dorsey who was nearly lynched after the court had freed him of the charge of alleged criminal assault on a white woman.
Since the receipt of letters demanding a large sum of money under penalty of killing members of the families of those to whom the letters were addressed, author of the letters cleverly eluded every trap set for his capture, in addition to post office inspectors other officers have been on his trail.
About three weeks ago Postmaster Williamson, noticed Rev. Hall marking a sign on a garage on South Bentz street. The letters were similar to those contained in the letters of Baker, Judge Worthington, and Wertnebaker, whose watch was kept on the minister. Other information in the possession of the postal authorities also pointed to him, and he was jailed.
Elder Stephan, of the local Seventh-day Adventist Church, told an AFRO representative that his denomination had no representation in Hagerstown, and Rev. Hall was probably of the Church of God and Saints of Christ.
New York, Jan. 12.—Charles Edward Russell, white, Socialist writer and lecturer, tonight challenged President Harding to produce "any photograph or any other kind of picture of the impassable gulf between the white and black races, which he said existed." In a recent meeting of the N. A. A. C. P., he declared that no microscope could detect the slightest difference between the blood of whites and Negroes, and said this proved "that man is man, regardless of the color of his skin."
Los Angeles, Cal., Jan. 12—"Sunshine Sammy", film star, Ernest Morrison, has signed a five-year contract with a big motion picture corporation here calling for $10,000 per year.

BANKERSTOBE CALLED BEFORE U.S. REFEREE
Judge Rose Understood To Have Directed That Taylor and Jenkins Be Thoroly Examined
RECEIVER MAKES REPORT
Harry O. Wilson's Statement Shows Bankrupt Firm Spent Large Sum In Salaries
Final report of Harry O. Wilson on the condition of the books of the bankrupt firm of Taylor and Jackson, bankers, makes some starting disclosures as to the business methods of the firm.
Total assets of the insolvent bank indicate that the assets on paper are $5,741,818, and the liabilities on paper $84,250,16. The difference amounting to some thirty thousand dollars, according to the bank's own report, was spent in overdraft charges, including cent, eight cent, advertising, postage. The cost item is the expenditure of nearly $15,000 in salaries during the 27 months the bank was in business.
The total income of the nominal assets of the bank, fifty thousand dollars, figured at 6 per cent, would be only three thousand dollars a year, so that the average expenditure for salaries above exceeded the maximum possible revenue of the bank. Judge Roe, it is understood, has directed the receiver and his counsel to have the bankrupts thoroughly examined before the referee in bankruptcy, as the case is one in which explanations are given. As a matter of course, the receiver will have to take possession of the property of both the bankrupts, including Taylor's holding in the catering company, which bears his name. It is understood the receiver will require into the circumstances surrounding the transfer of the Taylor dwelling at No. 205 Biddle street, to Thos. S. Kidman, the hotel keeper. The facts of this are the Wingate & Brown case obviously suggest that there should be more supervision of the business of occupied private bank-
ASSETS $50781
The time sum was expended to run the bank in the twenty-seven months of its existence as follows:
$476.10 officers, $6,220; Salary of employees, $8,576.62; Rent, $1,444; Held, $1,969.12; Labor and regis, $1,969.12; Wage, $1,458.12; Income, $1,617.68; Insurance, $225.52; Telephone and telegrains, $705.41; Furniture and fixtures, $1,507.86; Contributions, $102.71; Sunrise, $585.51; Legal service, $260.81; Filing, $374.88; Papers and magazines, $1,858; Commission investments, $1,116.00; Transactions, $2,191.60; Losses by the property of N. Y., $2,402.59; Lack of interest to depositors, $785.46.
The weekly compensation for officers and employees as set down in the report show that Mr. Taylor drew $25 a week in 1920 and $35 in 1921.
The week's pay, $25.50, was $25.50.
Amy Calk, $12; Horbert Savoy, $10, plus commission; J. Nelson Fortune, $11, plus commission; Ben. Gray, $9; Theresa Crawley, $2; Leon Toye, $5; W. Jones, $85 per month; W. P. B. H. Harris, $50 per month; F. D. M. Cracken, $50 per month. While some of these employees had only been working for the bank five months or more all of them were on the payroll when the doors were closed in December, 1921.

BODDY KILLED TWO FEARING THIRD DEGREE
BODDY KILLED TWO FEARING THIRD DEGREE
"Sure Death" Luther Hunted Four Days By Thousands In Three States
Amos Scott Tipped Off By Rev. Tindley, Affects Capture
Philadelphia, Pa., January 12.—Captured by a sixty-year-old former colored prizefighter, who had just been elected first colored police magistrate, was the fate of Luther Boddy.
"Sure Death Luther" he was called following his murder of two N. Y. white cops, who were taking him to the police station to put him through the third degree in the effort to connect him with a crime. Despite the fact that Boddy is easily picked out of a crowd because of a livid scar across his face, left from a wound caused by a fellow prisoner in Sing Sing several years ago, he successfully dodged the ten thousand cops of New York city, New Jersey, and thousands of other persons in Pennsylvania for four days.
Clad in woman's attire, with trousers under his skirts, woman's shoes and a green veil and wig, he held up a taxicab and other autists and might have easily escaped except for Rev. C. A. Tindley and Magistrate Scott. The white newspapers say that some colored people hide colored criminals. When the white police force of the States failed, three colored men captured the desperado. Amos Scot is a hero today, and the necessity of having colored policemen on the force was demonstrated beyond fear of contradiction.
BODDY'S CONFESSION
Story Told Newspapermen Following His Arrest
"This happened Thursday night about 8 o'clock. I was in Public School No. 89 and not on pay role, contrary to newspaper reports. But I went to see the parrot officer on, some other business. While, I was there talking to him these two detectives came
"This happened Thursday night, about 8 o'clock. I was in Public School No. 89, and not on parole, contrary to newspaper reports. But I went to see the parole officer on, some other business. While, I was there talking to him these two detectives came in.
"They waited until I got through talking and stood in the hall, and when I came out they started talking to me and asked me what I knew concerning the Rhodes shooting. So I told them I don't know anything about it," and they said, "How did this rumor get out that you did the shooting?"
"I told them rumors do not get out. I am across the street there every day in the bootblack parlor. If you wanted me, why didn't you come after me?"
"They they said, 'are not going to lock you up, we are just going to take you over to the station home and find out what you are about this.'"
"Of course, in New York City, what they mean by taking you to the Station House is that they take you over and kick you around for two or three hours. I have had that done to me several times. I never was wanted for anything, but they just kicked me around, and when I would go home, stay in bed for a week and get up.
"So I walked along with them, asking them not to take me over there, because I knew what was going to happen. They could have come over to the boothack puritor any day. They insisted on taking me and I walked along with them until we got within four or five blocks of the Police Station.
"Then I guess my superior suddenly flared up. They should I go along to be beat up for nothing? It seemed everything went in a daze and I fired those shots at the officers that had me under arrest. I didn't know how many shots I fired and I ran away."
Here follows the story of his flight. It is confusing, because he retraced his steps so frequently. Simply told, it begins with his ride in the subway down to the Hudson tubes. He stopped at Grove Street, Jersey City, and from there went to Newark. He was then dressed in men's clothes, with the disfiguring skin showing plainly.
Feared To See Mother
From Newark he headed for Montclair, where his mother lives. The police believe he visited his mother and obtained some money from her. Boddy denies this emphatically. He did not dare go near her home, he said, when he learned detectives watched it.

Speaks From Knowledge
So declares Gen. Mangin, whose suiterance is the most authoritative of those who have taken up advocacy of the cause of the blacks, following the winning of the Gon-court literary prize by the Martin-Ique writer, Rene Maran.
Mangin is the great champion of the blacks. He holding that only by training and arming her colonial subjects can France redress the balance in face of more populous Germany. Their fighting value he proved in the war. for "Manger" Mangin's colonial army was always in the thick of the French offensives.
The General gained his affection for the colored races during the twenty years he spent in colonial military and administrative com-mands. He is not merely a soldier but has considerable competence in literary talent, which gives weight to his remarks on culture among the Negro races.

Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority Throws Bombshell Into Colored College Society
ACTION UNPRECEDENTED
Presence Of White Members In Secret Society May Cause It To Be Outlawed
Special to the Afro-American Indianapolis, Ind., Jan. 12. The Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority which held its annual session here recently threw a bombshell into the midst of the colored Greek letter fraternities by announcing several white women as honorary members.
The Alpha Kappa Alpha's is the first and oldest organization among colored college women and was organized at Howard University thirteen years ago. Its white honorary members announced are, Jane Addams, a white social worker in Chicago, and Mary Durkee, wife of the President Howard University.
Since all of the college Greek letter fraternities are secret societies with more or less of a racial as well as an educational program, its action has aroused bitterness and hostility in college circles. It is said to be the first time that any college secret organization of this type has taken action against white persons on both side are just as tightly drawn in the Greek letter societies of big white colleges who have always refused to take in colored members.
Several members here have announced that they will take up action with other fraternities during the year and recommend to the Alpha Kappa with other white people or be outlawed from the colored fraternal world.
New York, Jan. 12—Efforts of Major William York, business manager of the American-African 45 day tour to Africa to straighten out the tangle surrounding chartering of the steamship Byron for the voyage were unsuccessful this week.

"Civilization has its source in Yellow Asia, Black India and Black Egypt. Greece dates only from 1,200 or 1,500 years before and Rome was only a tardy parvenu and from the story of our development. Our alphabets are Asiatic and our figures Arab, in short, the white race is only a stage in humanity, not the first nor probably the last. There is no guarantee that it will not be outdistanced by the colored races in future ages. But doesn't Africa seem a little behind?" the interviewer asked.

May Be Named For Recorder of Deeds In Place Of Link Johnson
(Associated Negro Press)
Washington, D. C., Jan. 10—The death of Senator Penrose, of Pennsylvania, and the passing of Will H. Hays from the position of Postmaster General as per year, have absorbed all the high points in political gossip at the beginning of the New Year.
To succeed Will H. Hays Senator Spencer has recommended Walter S. Dickey, white, manufacturer, newspaper owner and multimillionaire of Kansas City, Mr. Dickey is an unquestioned friend of the colored people, and knows them from "n to izard." He is a master of the political genre and very principial of opinion of opposing believers in big things, and believes that "to the victor belongs the spoils." Should Mr. Dickey be determined upon for the portfolio, a new Richmond would come to the front, in the person of William C. Hueston, of Kansas City, and Gary, ind. Hueston has been a "cheif lieutenant" of Mr. Dickey for years.
Waiting On President the matter of appointments everybody is waiting on the President. What the President is waiting on has not been completed with high authority that the President proposes to take cure of Henry Lincoln Johnson in a handsome way. The appointment will be in keeping with the high esteem in which the President and Mr. Johnson's innumerable friends and "followers hack?" That seems to be the unhold him.

INVENTOR OF A WIRE RAT TRAP OFFERED $25000
Tennessee Man's Imagination, Plus Rusty Bailing Wire, Inspired Him To Wealth
WAS ELEVATOR MAN
White Firm Also Offers $5,000 Down And Five Cents on Each Trap Sold
New York City, Jan. 12—Imagination plus rusty bailing wire was the combination Allen Dixon has used to put himself on the highway to fortune.
Mr. Dixon who is 57 years old, is employed as an elevator man in a white department store in Nashville. If his plans go through in every year he will have enough money to buy out the department store and run it himself.
To most persons bailing wire is simply wire, but to Dixon, looking at all the rusty wire going to waste from bales of hay shipped into Nashville, rusty wire was rat traps. He pulled some wire off a bale, experimented with it and—got a patent. Hard & Hart, No. 100 Fifth avenue, are negotiating for permission to sell the patent right. Mr. Hardy admits the Negro will probably make a lot of money. He is said to have received already an offer of $25,000 in cash, or $5,000 down and 5 cents royalty. Dixon said he benefited his trap last July. Just to show how much rats liked it, he said, he entered two on a competition at the Commercial Club in Nashville, and in one night caught twenty-six rats in the big one and fifteen in the small one. Only one other trap entered caught any rats, and that
Dixon said he had other inventions that ought, to pay him better than this one. He did not know whether he would keep his job after he got his money, but he would have to do something for he had worked too long to be able to quit.
GIANT COLORED COP
A TERROR TO WETS
Wheeling, W. Va., Jan. 10.—Thomas Arrington, height six foot, weight, 254 pounds, color, brownstain, has been appointed deputy probation agent in this city.
His appointment comes as a real reward for service rendered. Until now he has been a member of the local police force whose special was to fight bourgeois gangs, has made a good deal of bootlegging, Probation became a law than any other officer in West Virginia has made for all crimes put together. He is a confirmed probationist and always has been.
Were he just an ordinary colored man it is firmly believed, race prejudice would prompt assert itself. But not in the case of Arrington, he hias the respect of all classes and enjoys the sincere fear of the rum poodlers. While hundreds of other policemen are still stabbed and even Federal agents have been dismissed for double-dealing since Probation, or have been charged with protecting bootleggers, no one has ever breathed a word against the integrity of Arrington. With many hundreds of arrests to his credit, he has never drawn his gun except to shoot the tires of rum-running automobiles.
STORK VISITS REV. AND MRS. DODGES. AND LEFT TWINS
The stork was very busy at the home of Rev. Dodges last week, gift a pair of twins (girl and boy).
When seen by the writer, Rev. Dodges said: "See the Madam, she will tell you all about it."
When congratulated by the writer, Mrs. Dodges made the following statement: "During my ten years of married life I have been childless and a constant sufferer from female trouble. In its worse form. Every month, I would put in a lease for or six days. On day I visited the Northwestern Pharmacy, 1200 Pennsylvania avenue to get a prescription filled. While waiting I saw a baby come in and get a bottle
of Herbs of Life, and she told the clerk that it was the best medicine in the world.
"After trying the doctor's medicine and getting no more results than usual, I decided to take Herbs of Life. At that time I would have taken anything. The first dose made me feel a little bad, but I kept it up and began to feel better and continued taking Herbs of Life until I had taken fourteen. I believe Herbs of Life is the most wonderful medicine in the world and easily see why the manufacturers have created such a world-wide reputation.
"Please publish my statement in order that my many friends may know of my confinement and will may me a visit."

CLAIM WILLS- TATE FIGHT WAS FRAMED
Western Fans Declare Referee Aims To Prevent Match Between Wills And Dempsey
Jeer Official Who Stops Big Bout At End Of First Round
New York City, Jan. 12.—Information is drifting in here that the recent Wills-Tate light at Portland, Oregon, was the biggest frame-up in recent history.
The bout was regarded as an elimination contest to see which of the two men should challenge Dempsey for heavyweight honors. Near the end of the first round of the scheduled ten-round light, with Tate on the floor, down for the count, the referee declared him to be winner over Harry Wills.
The big crowd of 3,500, who filled every space in the arena, could not understand the decision and jeered Referee Louitt, who made the announcement that he awarded the fight to Tate on a foul hecked him while coming out of a clinch.
Chicago Paper Charges
Frame-Up
Chicago, IL.—Charging that the officials had no intention of allowing Wills to win the fight and that they had agreed to award it to Tate at the end of the 5th round, the special correspondent of the Chicago Whip says Harry Wills received a raw deal.
It had never occurred to the officials that Whip would attempt to knock Tate out in the first round, so that the knock-out blow came they first counted Tate out and later called a foul.
Terrific Blow Fells Tate
Wills leaped at Tate like lightning and struck him a clean blow to the jaw. Tate fell like a brick wall. His legs flew from under him, and his shoulders hit the mat. I protested Tate Leilt and Kid Howard. Tate's manager, pickled him up and curried him to his corner. Louit then raised Tate's right hand, a sign of victory. Tate and Howard then left the ring and started for their dressing rooms. Wills was sitting in his corner with a puzzled expression on his face, wondering what was going on.
Wills Still In Dark
In a conversation with Wills after he had gone to his dressing room and domned street togs, he said he still was unable to explain the trend of affairs. He said he still was stopped, and was as much surprised as the crowd when the referee held up Tate's arm as a sign of victory.
In the meantime the receipts are being held pending a review of the affair by the boxing commission.

HOUSE DEBATES ANTI-LYNGHING BILL 3 HOURS
Eight And A Half Hours Of Discussion Remain Before Final Vote Can Be Called For
Rep. Vaile Scores "Contemptible Pettiness" Of Texan's Arguments
(Staff Correspondence)
Washington, D. C., Jan. 11.—The House occupied three hours of its session here yesterday with debate upon the Dye Anti-Lynching Bill—11. 11. 13. leaving eight and one-thalf hours yet to be continued before the final vote can be called for.
The Administration is determined to put the measure through this session, but is meeting the determined opposition of the minority Democrats, who consume much of the time in such dilatory meetings as roll calls and moves to adjourn. The climax of the session yesterday was the refusal of the Republican members to adjourn upon one of the many motions of Representative Garrett of Tennessee, and immediately following Representative Vaile of Colorado in a motion for the enactment of the Anti-Lynching Bill into a law referred to the "contemptible petition" of arguments against the measure on the part of Representative Buchanan of Texas.
Madden (Ill.) Opens Debate
Representative Madden opened the debate by saying that the "Anti-Lynching Bill" is not a bill in favor of the Negro particularly, "it is in favor of law and order," human rights, and the passage of the Dyer Bill would weaken the Republican party in the South. In an attempt to be factions, he declared that relatives of some colored lashes would have him lynched simply to draw the $10,000 line imposed upon any county under the provisions of his bill, which permitted a lynching to take place within its confines. He referred to colored people as a "race of tip-takers," and said they could never rise to become a race of rulers. He wrote of West Virginia, defended the constitutionality of the bill, declaring that the "institution guarantees every citizen a presentation by grand jury, when accused of crime, a trial by petit jury, compulsory attendance of witnesses for him and the right to be defended by counsel. Such rights he added were guaranteed by the fifth as well as the fourth amendment. He was frequently interrupted by Southerners, but read into the Record the report of former Governor Dursley, Georgia, and the statistics on yankees in the United States furnished by Dr. R. R. Moton, of Tuskegee.
Maine Republican Opposes
Representative Hersey of Maine,
a Republican, created surprise by opposing the bill. He ignorantly referred to the Southwestern Christian Advocate, an M. E. Church paper, as the organ of certain societies formed to stir up race hatred, and declared that the "Republican Party owes the Negro nothing."
Representative Little of Kansas cured the lynchings in the South as "the poorest barbarian," adding, "Unless our people leave their disputes to the courts it is only a question of time as to the collapse of the Republic." The Supreme Court, he said, had only declared 35 bills unconstitutional in the history of the nation, and Congress could afford to take another chance on the Dyer Bill.
Representative Taylor, of Tennessee told of an incident in his district concerning the near-lynching of a colored man by a mob which stormed the jail to capture a man accused of assault. They were repulse, he said, and a few days afterwards the man's innocence was clearly proven by a positive Vale of Colorado not only stayed Representative Buchanan of Texas for his "interpreter passion" displayed in arguing against' the bill last week, but also wound up by saying, "Thank Cod I was reared in a different light."

National Body Preparing To Lay Program Before President Harding Next Month
A great mass meeting is to be held at Trinity Baptist Church, corner Drud Hill avenue and Mr. Mechen street, Monday, January 15, 1922 under the auspices of the National Colored Women's Legislative Bureau which is launching its work in the State of Maryland. The aim of the Bureau is to get legislation for women and children and to look after all social issues. The first step taken by the Bureau in Maryland, will be the presentation of an anti-lynching bill, which will give to the people of Maryland protection. Department heads will be appointed to represent the race in the various bays and commissions as follows:—Prisons and reformatories, motion picture Board of Censors, Board of Education, etc.
A special conference has been arranged with President Harding by the National Legislative Council asking for the liberation of colored prisoners at Fort Leavenworth, Kansas. A delegation of over 200 women coming from various states in the Union will present their cause in the latter part of February.
The National Colored Women's Legislative Bureau is located, 611 E. street, Washington, L. C. The national chairman is Mrs. M. Mossell Griffin; national executive secretary, Miss Janetette Carter; national jobliest, Mrs. Mary Church Terrell.
The work of the Bureau has been thus far very successful among the many states in which bills are being presented by the Bureau. Virginia is among the number. It is the desire of the Bureau that the work in Maryland may go over the top.
On Dec. 9th, the Elude Musical Club gave a very appreciative musical for the benefit of St. Katharine's Home, Druid Hill Avenue and Pressman Street. The proceeds were $20, which was used for the purchase of a bed for a dormitory named St. Cecilia. This club is one of the best musical clubs in the city.

RESOLUTION
At a meeting of the Official Board of the Metropolitan M. E. Church, held January 1, 1822, it was ordered that the following minute be approved and printed in the daily press: Whereas we have learned with poignant sorrow of the death of our colleague and brother JOIN BRANCH. Whereas, he had served his country faithfully as a brave soldier, his city and state as a law-abiding citizen, his home as a loving husband and father, and his church as an upright Christian. Be it resolved that in his death, Metropolitan M. E. Church, one who as a leader helped him and led the guide the religious thoughts and lives of a large part of its membership.
Resolved that is a token of the high esteem in which he was held while living and the fond memory in which he is held now dead, this minute he spread upon the record of the church and kept among its archives as one who successfully served his home his country, and his God.

Nex Monday the opening attraction will be "Cappy Ricks" with Thomas Meighan as the featured player. This picture will be condensed for two days. On Wednesday and Thursday the audience will be the offering and on Friday and Saturday Win. S.

CAREY
The week at the Carry was begin with "The Devil" starring George Adelis in the title-rôle, the same which he played when the play was produced on the speaking stage. This picture drew large audiences at every showing on Monday. On Tuesday "Shadows of the West" a 6-reeled production as the offering. With a Mack Sennett super-comedy as the additional entitled "Call A Cop."
feature. Next Monday the opening attraction will be "The Green-eyed Monster" one of the best colored movies with an all-colored cast yet produced. Both in direction of photography, this production measures up to the best that is now being produced. A comedy by the same producers and as capably handled, will be the additional feature.

On the 21st Eddie Polo in the first episode of "The Secret Four" his best serial will appear.
REGENT
The Recent management has schooled another balloys-in their aggregate stage attraction which has been secured for this week, the last place, they have secured Jack Johnson who was at the Gaytie Theatre a few weeks ago in connection with a burlesque organization, for the star offerings. And Quinard Miller and his very capable organization of young players have been held over.
Of course, Johnson is the multi-attraction, and a full house greeted him at both performances. Monday and applauded particularly when he appeared. Johnson's act consists of long stretching, a boxing exhibition with his sparing partner and demonstration of his strength in polling against a team of the twenty men. At the matinee, his apparatus for this latter feat had not arrived and thus this part of his act had to be postponed until the night performance. At the latter show the houses apparently got stagefright and refused to go through with their end of the performance and thus twenty men from the audience were called upon. With great leather cuffs around his heels to which ropes were attached, ten men each side tugging in opposite directions and his hands in holding a steel ring in his hand. Johnson demonstrated the mighty strength of a percetable giant.
Quinard Miller and his players are offering a hotel sketch the first half. In this sketch, simple opportunity is furnished the principals of the company to confirm the splendid impression they made last week of possessing more than ordinary acting ability. Among those work was more pronounced in this line: he was Henriet Loveless whose work in "Blackface role was extreme with well-done and in great contrast to that of Porter" played last week. Miller was good in a straight role and "Monkey" Johnson worked hard to get fun out of the role of the porter who was masquerading as the "boss." A special word must be said also at this point, for a splendid solo song by Turcello Cuff who has a very pleasing voice. Others who did good work were Earle Cash as the "Cashman," Hugh Chapelle, the "Shields," Al Mahoneau, the diminutive little Baby Jones and Catherine choice.
Two extra acts were offered as singles by Alma Smith, a very pretty young woman in songs and dances, and Billy Mitchell, an acrobatic dancer who seceded to "No lines in his feet. He also showed ability as a congistant, and well-received by the crowd. The bill was opened by Parker and Mack, one of the best singing and dancing duos in the business. Wm. Farnum in "Rough and Read" was the main screen offering.
RAINBOW
Hardack Jackson and his 20th Century Wonders, were held over for another week at the Rainbow making the third of their engagement at this house. On Monday an accident kept Jackson, out of the show, thus the burden of the fun-making, fell upon the shoulders of Paul Floyd. And right nobly did he respond to the demands that was made upon him, for he kept the audience in an upright by his auties and criticisms all the time he was before the nightlights. A pleasing feature of the show was a shadowgraph exhibition by members of the museum. Another feature which made a big hit was the staging of the original Jackson quartet composed of Harry Jackson, first tenor, Alexander Jackson, second tenor; Frank Holmes, baritone and Alphonse Robinson, bass. These boys never sang to better advantage than they did Monday evening and they were called before the audi-

All these acts were well-received by the opening audiences, but the margin of applause went to the performers, jugging, yodling and imitations are familiar hereabouts. He won thunderous applause for his work.
Next to Anderson, the other outstanding favorites appeared to be Reynolds and Jones by the same makeup and accents of a typical Jew. His impersonation in this respect is the

Chattanooga Teen, Jan. 6. There was but slight evidence of discontent at holders of the Theatre Owners Booking Association held here yesterday and concluded in the wee small hours of today. Rather than the revolt against the present administration that was rumored to occur; the meeting proved to be an overwhelming indignement of the executives who organized in circuit and piloted it through its first year.
Chrissie Beemer, of the Lyric Theater, New Orleans, was elected president for the ensuing year. Milton H. Starr, of the Bifon, Nashville, retiring to accept the newly created position of business manager. Charles S. Tarpin, owner of the W.

NEW LINCOLN
Olga Burgoyne and her Oriental Dancers are paying their second annual visit to the city as the stage attraction at the Lincoln this week. This company with the exception of two members with that event has been the big hit at the same theatre last year. Miss Burgoyne is one of the most talented theatrical artists that visits the local house. Before organizing her present company, she spent 6 years in Europe where she worked in large continental cities as a classic dancer. She in selecting her company, surrounded herself with a group of young players who were capable of measuring up to the standard she had set for herself, and has been blistering reception wherever she has appeared.
No more pleasing group of entertainers have appeared at this house for many moons than this organization. Among those whose work shows to fine advantage are first. Miss Burgarye who makes a big bill with an arm and a big hat, Mrs. Cassay, straight; Johnny Larue and Millard McConn first and second comedian respectively who created a "riot" with their knock-about comedy antics; Zerbaia Larue who won several cheques for her fine condition of Truck, the remarkable conditionist; Raymond Wallace who is a great favorite at the Lincoh, with his manouflage baritone blues numbers; and Bessie Simms, Olive May McNally; Anonda Craig and Frances Johns, who made up the chorus, and a lively and highly accomplished one at that.

BIRTHS EXCEED DEATHS BY 496 IN BALTIMORE
Figures For Last Year In City Still Show Comparatively High Death Rate
MARRIAGES OVER 1279
Divorces During The Same Period Estimated At Nearly Nine Hundred
Births among colored people during the past year, 1921, exceed deaths in Baltimore city by 649, according to figures made available by the Health Department yesterday. Commissioner Jones declared, however, that there may be some corrections in these figures to be made later.
The Health Department does not issue any weekly or monthly bulletins on births, but the number of deaths was stated as 2,278 for the year, indicating a death rate of 21 per 1,000 population, which is comparatively high compared with the death rate of 13 per 1,000 for all the colored people in the United States. Poor hospital facilities, and lack of any municipal of State institution for the care and treatment of consumptives can account in part for Baltimore's high death rate, as well as the high rate of infant mortality.
The clerk of the Court of Common Pleas makes no discrimination as to the number of colored people who secured marriage licenses during the year, but from figures compiled by the AFRO-AMERICAN, from its columns week by week, 1,297 couples took out permits to wed. Corrections and additions to this list will unobtrudely bring the total up to 1,500 couples.
The high rate of divorces in the city also continues. From figures made available by the colored lawyers of the city, 892 colored couples secured decrees of limited or absolute divorce. These figures represent estimates only however, because the Circuit Court does not keep its record of colored people separate.
SMITH CASE IS STILL GOING ON
Motion of Attorney Warner T. McGuinn for a new trial for Samuel Smith, a claustrophen convicted in the local criminal court for criminal assault in shooting, white girl, was heard by the Supreme Bench Tuesday and Wednesday, when Mr. McGuinn consumed four hours with his argument.
Thursday states Attorneys Leach and Jennifer took up the rebuttal and may conclude today. Unless Mr. McGuinn wins his contention that the decision of the judges in convicting Smith was contrary to the evidence, Smith will come up for sentence. The maximum penalty for this crime is hanging.
Mr. McCulloh painstakingly went thru the two thousand pages of testimony taken at the original trial and declared that the prosecution had left more than a reasonable doubt as to Smith's guilt.
Sampson Jones Freed
Sampion Jones, positively identified by Margaret Anderson, white as the man who assaulted her near Spurrows 'point in September, was freed by a jury before Judge Duncan in the Baltimore County Court Wednesday. In spite of the white woman's positive identification, Jones proved an alibi, proved that she did not have clothes such as the woman's real assailant wore, and that he did not have a revolver.

JAMES THOMAS
ENTERS 78TH YEAR
Union Bapt. Church Sexton Boasts
He Has Never Danced. Cussed
Or Taken A Drink
Although Mr. James Thomas is
well known and liked in the North-
west section of the city, where he
serves as the junitor of Union Bapt-
ist Church, he has never really
had an honest-to-goodness birth-
day.
Mr. Thomas knows that he was
sixteen years old when the Civil
War started and twenty years old
when it ended, according to the
Virginia white people who held
him a slave at that time, but he
doesn't know what date his birth-
day falls on.
"Just say I am entering my se-
venty-eighth year," he said.
Mr. Thomas is a typical represen-
tative of the generation which
believed in strict morality.
"I have never been to a dance," he told a representative of the AFRO-AMERICAN, "never attended a theatre, never cussed, and never had a drink." He attributes his excellent health to his steady employment and temperate habits.

Mrs. Susie Wyatt Lured To McCulloh Street House And Outraged
STRIPPED OF CLOTHING
Men Then Thrust Her Into Street Hardly Able To Walk
While walking down McCullah street last Friday afternoon Mrs. Susie Wyatt, about 38 years, 1224 McCullah street, was met by a man who asked her to come to his home and dress his wife's hair.
Mrs. Wyatt said she would and followed the man to his home, as she thought. When they reached his home, which was on the third floor of an apartment house on McCullah street, the door was opened and she walked into the kitchen, only to be confronted by five men.
They were all drunk and immediately gathered around her. They told her that they were going to assault her, and pushing her into the bedroom she was stripped of her clothing and criminally assaigned by four of the men, then allowed to dress and go.
Surely able to walk Mrs. Watt went to her home, then notified the police of the Northwestern district. Several hours later, Sergeant

Dental Society
The Maryland Dental Society held its regular meeting at the Royal Palace Hotel Tuesday night. After the meeting the society was the guest of Dr. O. D. Jones at supper. This Society has been doing wonderful work for the colored people of Maryland. The society is responsible for the city authorities installing two well equipped Dental Clinics, and appointing two very capable colored dentists, namely, Dr. L. A. Butler and A. D. Stone, to care for the teeth of colored school children. More important work is on the society's program.
The members of the Dental society are: Dr. A. O. Reil, president; Dr. Chas. H. Coleman, vice president; Dr. B. E. Brown, secretary; Dr. F. J. Sykes, treasurer; Dr. A. A. Smith, Dr. O. D. Joung; Dr. L. A. Butler, Dr. R. G. Baker; Dr. D. C. Brown, Dr. A. D. Stone; Dr. J. Wilkins, Dr. E. Dickerson; Dr. L. H. Young and Dr. O. W. H. McNeill.
THE AFRO-AMERICAN
Friday evening, January 12th, Dr. P. O. Connell will deliver one of his famous lectures in the college Assembly Hall. The public is cordially invited. A large number from the special classes in the city will attend. The Phi Beta Sigma Fraternity will hold its annual convention at Morgan next December. The members of the Gamma Chapter here are now preparing for its entertainment. A report from the Registrar's office discloses the fact that there are 625 students enrolled in Morgan College Corporation for this scholastic year. The school is growing from every point of view which is indicative of a GREATER MORGAN. The semi-annual meeting of the Board of Trustees met at the College last Monday. Many plans were laid to enlarge the plant and score of work.
Mrs. Venzella Jones, Professor of Public Speaking and Dramatic Art, is preparing to present to the public. Shakespeare's "Mid Summer's Night Dream," early in March at one of the local theatres. Last Friday evening the young ladies of the Academy tendered a reception to the foot-ball team. Encouraging speeches were made by members of the faculty and student body. The students are getting behind athletes here with the right spirit and a successful outcome is expected. The Sophomore Class in College Trigonometry will survey the campus, calculate the elevation of the many rolling hills of the campus, and will do many other practical things as soon as the weather permits. The young ladies in this class are very much interested in this work. Dean MeCoy is doing wonderful work with his "Trig" Class with the limited equipment he is in great need of surveying in instruments.
Several new students were en-
ployed upon the re-opening of
school, January 3rd. Many more
will enter at the beginning of the
Second Semester, February 1st.
The administration is puzzled as to
where they will sleep as the dormi-
tories are filled.

what rugged for his more experienced rival. Maybe so; maybe so, but it is our impression, that the better scrap would be with Norfolk as the other half.
A notable feature of the coming elimination fractas as reported, is that Fred Fulton who has been in retirement ever since was in two of the three something like a rug, who is no hand, and will have ribs felt out by Bartley Madden.
Other "Tones" who will be on hand are Battling Levinsky, who is scheduled to have, it out with Gene Tunney specifically for the lightweight wolverine and Bill Breman whose opponent has not yet been chosen, but it is rumored that he will face either Bob Roper or Fay Keiser.

Colored Distance Streak Who Won Three National Championships Last Year America's Best Marathon Ben
Associated, Negro Press
Pittsburgh, Pa., Jan. 11. Americans are in the hole for the Paris Olympic marathon of 1924 in East Johnson, the Negro from Pittsburgh, who appears to possess all the qualifications of a great distance runner, according to a leading sport writer.
He has style, speed and stamina, the attributes of a real runner. Without having a prepared himself it is on record that right off the road and when he had tanned he was to run but a dozen miles stopped along in perfect form and showed winning ability over a route of a score miles.
He has close to the ground action so necessary for a marathoner. And by his running over different distances from two to ten miles he has shown himself without a peer in the United States.
WHO THE TRI MU'S ARE
Captain Dorsey Enlightens Inspiring Fans, And Says "Y" Avoids Game
To the Sports Editor of the Afro:
In answer to the many questions as to the origin of the Tri Muts who have been a winning "dark horse" in lightweight basketball circles this season, the following statements will to some extent enlighten the public:
This team represents an adult young men's field class of Sharp Street Memorial Church, organized and chartered in 1912, and named Tri M's, which means literally 2 M's. We seek to develop the MIND, MOCAS, and MUSCLES herefore, the class fees only stressed the development of the mind and bonds of its members, but with access to the time "gym" of the Community House—to which the class has donated much equipment—increases turned instantly to the development of the muscles of those young men through indoor tennis, indoor baseball, volleyball and basketball. In the latter field, with two twogames to his credit, Capt. Bussy with the bat of the Champions Brook and Charlie with the ball of the Winner break and locally capture the championship.
In the line-up are such stars as Sam Wilson, Horace and "Nunes" Brown, Harry Thomas, Monroe Scott, Bernard Whiting, "Nick" Powell, Bret Bremen and the "thongs" Cap Dressey, Chintney Brooks, and "Garble" Powell. Dr. Monroe Scott, manager of the film's production, took the role of a game with the "W" since November 26th, but the latter's physical director evades the challenge by saying he is "filled up at present."
SCHOOLS PREPARE FOR BASKETBALL
With soccer out of the way, public schools are preparing for the AFRO-AMERICAN Public Athletic league basketball series which starts February 1st.
Mr. E. C. Freiecks, of the Public Athletic League, who will direct the games, announces that he secured the gymnastics of the U.S. national team on Monday and Thursday, afternoon from 2:20 to 6 and the gymnastics of the Y. M. C. A. Tuesday, Wednesday and Friday atogonies abstem from 2:20 to 6. These two places will be open to all school leagues for practice purposes and opening of the basketball league.
This is the first basketball league in the colored school schools and it is expected that rivalry will be keen for the honor of winning the first pennant offered as well as other prizes to the AFRO will winners.

Business Men Needed
Elsewhere on this page will be found the last of a series on the colored baseball situation written by Mr. Andrew (Hubs) Foster, who has been following these articles and has struck with the seriousness of the indictments which the noser of colored baseball has charged against the race, both lay and professional in regard to the game. In these articles, Mr. Foster has pointed out the necessity of coloring clothes in the cities of the country getting into the game as promoters it colored baseball is to throw off the swaddling clothes which according to Mr. Foster, now impedes its advancement. He has likewise, told of the hard struggle he has had with an embroidered state, so far as has him within his power and the timeless way his efforts in this direction have been received by his managerial associates.
Concerning Umpires
He has discussed the subject of umpires, and in no uncertain language has declared that, while the time is ripe for colored baseball arbitrators, and furthermore, that he stands ready and willing to play, he will with few exceptions fall far short of qualifying at present in this important official capacity, and must undergo a thorough and rigid apprenticeship before he can hope to convince both managers and spectators that they have reached the point in passing that "umpires" not enough of our own John "Cromwell as an umpire at thack Sox Park to offer him a job in the Negro National League.

Likewise, he has discussed the playing end of the game, and in our judgment, it is in this phase of the matter that is to be recognized the most serious of his indictment; so with his charge that players were fined for not refreshing colored colleges, are "the greatest whiskey drinkers, greatest hirs and greatest construct jumpers" he has ever encountered. Anyone having knowledge of the number of years Mr. Foster was in baseball, will think wise before taking any pointed exception to any of those indictments, feeling any such exceptions to be in the nature of an imprisonment. But we cannot pass his latter charge of Mr. Foster's without stopping to look at the others, because if it is true, it is not only a collection on the college graduates in question but it is likewise a reduction on colored colleges.
Reflection On Colleges?
That it is a collection on each college is to be found in Mr. Tyster's statement of the disappointment he has not in this class of players, because he naturally expected from them more playing ability and a superior grade of general department that was not expected from the unmanned player. To use his exact words: "Baseball among the whites was on the downward grade until the Big League owners and scouts went into the colleges and brought out the college athlete who purified the situation and brought baseball up to his present high standard by coloring the same method went into the colored colleges and brought out a number of baseball players believing their superior knowledge and educational advantages would raise the standard of the other players, and do for us, what the white college-ball players had done for the white baseball profession." He then proceeds to make the college-ball player already mentioned; with the additional charge that the latter class of players are running colored baseball.
Baseball As A Business
We do not believe that Mr. Foster meant his charges to be regarded in the light of a "knock" against colored college graduates or the colored colleges, but the period of upward advancement which the race is passing through has assessed a greater responsibility on Negro schools, in so far as the moral welfare of their graduates is concerned, than attaches to white schools. And he fact that the black men whose moral and intellectual development does not measure up to that of players who have not had such advantages is nothing less than a charge of dereliction on the part of such schools.
However, it is our belief that it is less the fault of the schools than of the inherent nature of the offenders. That they are what they are, not because of their college training, but in spite of it. And furthermore, while we are not questioning the fact that he is our employer and then it is our opinion that much of the purity that has come to white baseball is due to the high type of whitenemen who of late years have come into the game and made it a legitimate business. In this way, they have imbued their players with the business instinct: that they are employees whose length of service with their employer depends upon the amount of industry, sobriety and fidelity they bring to their "job" and that when they fall in this, they are "bearded." And it is our further conviction that when the colored business men Mr. Foster asks for, come into colored baseball on the same principal, the same purifying processes will evaporate.

(Protected by the Kelley Newspaper Feature Service)
Synopsis—Christopher Bowling, an unisophisticated Harvard student, known to his classmates as the Virgin, meets Beatrix Marley a beautiful colored girl of Boston and accompanies her home. Her mother and he takes her unwaivers with a kiss for which he is asked to leave the house. But for some reason the Virgin is invited to call again and again he takes the same liberties with the beautiful Beatrix Marley and the act of kissing her by the arrival of Mr. Marley. Beatrix's father.
For an instant there was stiffness, the sulphurous stillness of a trench just after a shell has burst, on one side of the earlier sawed grayshall, on the other of grayish white, he hair down over her shoulders; on the other, the Virgin, his neck still gripped from behind by a hand he had not yet made, his eyes shining and shame. One pense moment, then Beatrix's father gave his neck a twist and a shake and flung him violently toward the door. The house, you young cur. Out of the house. Beatrix's father was a big, strong man in a rage; he followed the Virgin as it to kick him. But Beatrix darted past him and up to the Virgin, and seized the Virgin's cur.
and up to "A college student!" said Edie Virgin's wrist. Marley, "So you're one of the guys who don't abuse themselves. Don't you know years at our daughters' expense and then go away without caring onted, his what sorrow you leave behind
"No, no!" she cried. "Don't you go, Chris. Father, you don't know what you're doing." She shouted, big black unmasked face swelling with anger. "You don't, you don't. I won't let him go like this; he's done nothing wrong." She said. "I also said a calm voice at the stairway; and an elderly boy entered the room.
"Mother, mother!" cried Bairis.
"father doesn't understand at all. He thinks Chris, ..."
"that asked her mother, still cabn.
"That smoking young found there!" broke in the father.
"try to kick him out of the house and get him out of the house," Edward, Edward, said Mrs. Marley, putting her hands on his chest.
"so mother," said Bairis desperately. "You can see Chris has done nothing to be ..."
"What do you mean by anything?" the father mean in his.
Mary looked at her with her hair all over her face, just as I found her, and then trying to get me.
"Oh, father," grounded Bairis, "can't you take my word for it?"
"Not," he shouted, and his voice made the chandelier rattle, "I know she says."
Bairis' son trained the girl She sprang away from the mute Virgin and freed her parents like a fury, the blood rushing to her face, she smiled at her father, she smiled at her father.
"You insult me without giving me a chance to clairmure itself. Then you are innocent. Then you are innocent. I told you he was innocent. It's the truth, and if you are determined not to believe me you are not. It doesn't matter. Girl? A mighty innocent picture you are, with your father." Edward, said Beatrix's mother, who was the coolest head present. "let me ask some questions. I've been observing all of you, and there is any way so very terrible."
"Why don't you tell how you were hugging him, too?" granted her father. "Yes, I was doing that, too." Yes, he had boldly. "Furthermore, it was all on my own initiative. I enticed Chris; he had no idea of kissing me at first; he never in his life kissed any girl but me." "My God, Beatrix?" said her father. "You let him tell you that." "I did," she said, unshaken, "and I believed him, I believe him yet. He is the only young man in that I'd believe it of."

"And for making her, you young dog?" said Edward Marley, "I'll break...
I'll dog, Mr. Marley"; the Vinage broke in, Defending Beatrix and brought him back to himself, which meant that no man could call him a dog with him. He didn't make me kiss him; said Beatrix, "he's only trying to shield me,

"You get out of here and don't let me ever see you around here;
No, no," said Beatrix, holding on to the Virgin, "I won't have him insulted like that. If you hit him out I'll go out with him."

"You don't know Chris, Father," said Batrix, again indignant. "This is the only Boston or Cambridge house he's been inside of. He's also been in the house but for an accidental meeting. I'm the only girl in Boston that he knows." "I suppose he's got you believing that, too," grumbled her father. "But it's true, father, don't you suppose I've asked all the other girls if they knew him?" "What was the accidental meeting you spoke of?" asked her mother. "Was Monday evening two weeks ago."
"Yes, sir," she said with mock neckness. "I had just spent the afternoon at Bertha Nelson's in Cambridge and was on my way home. The custodian stopped to watch the animal fight between the sophomores and the freshmen. There were hundreds of them; they crawled upon the pavement and was caned to it. Chris saw him and came to my rescue. I had been knocked about in the crowd. I was scared, and I fainted. He carried me into the station and brought me safely and I waited till he went to his dormitory and changed his clothes. Then he saw me home. We've never introduced." And from what I saw you don't need to be to her father, who could not get the picture out of his mind. What father could? "But, my father," said her mother, "you never told me anything. No, imnum, I promised Chris to keep it secret." "Why a secret?" she said her mother reprovingly. "And why such a rapid acquaintance with a man
"You don't know Chris. He's never been seen with a girl and he feared the boys would tease him lawfully. They call him that his blood might kill him; more ever thinks of calling him Bowling or Christopher. And he was not really a stranger to me, I knew him from hearing so much about him! the boys who come here—you know them like a fortwell, Phil Worden and the rest—they were always full of jokes and stories about the Virgin. So our meeting wasn't so very irregular after all." I see, "said her mother, "Mr. Bowling, I am pleased to meet you. I did not know how much we are indebted to you."
She extended her hand and the Virgin took it. He found a friend in this elderly lady with the wise eyes and benevolent face.
"Now you too, papa," said Beatrix.
"I guess I'll wait awhile," said her father, drily.

HOW TO MAKE
A RENTED ROOM
LOOK HOME LIKE
Do you know how to make a roofted room look homelike?
A friend of mine who has lived a wandering life for some years, moving from one rented room to another, has reached such perfect comfort that too desolately in rented rooms that I feel I ought to share her methods with my readers.
3 Things She Carries With Her
Of course, many of you have rented rooms and never expect to, but one can never tell what one may be called upon to do. And thousands of young people in every city must be living away from home in rented rooms, and is not possible for her to carry many bulky accessories. Of course, anyone can make a room look pleasant by carrying enough things, but art is that she carries little and does not spend much money.
Three things she always does carry. One is a small shadow light with enough length of cord so that it can be placed anywhere. The second considers absolutely essential, as no room can look other than dismal without high lighting. She also carries her own puff which fluff over the color of oil and makes her independent of insufficient or unsatisfactory bed clothing. The third article is a pretty cretonne cover for her trunk which thereby offers a shade of oil and a shade of the hump, the puff, and the cretonne cover should be in the same tones, of course. As she thinks yellow brightens a room she considers it is less of her color scheme.
The things she buys are these: One dark desk blotter for the desk, or the table which she asks for if the room is not of good design and color which she says can be picked up for ten cents. (The last time I saw her room she had a most artistic one of glazed brown pottery, a stuff of similar cost. Some yellow tissue paper out of which she fashion simple shades for the wall lights. A person of great artistic perception and appreciation so she takes down most of the pictures that she finds in the rooms she runs. In place of these she puts two or three of the beautiful green pottery and the Sunday supplements supply us with nowadays. She mounts on some simple cardboard—mount of her own designing, and hangs them from time to time. Sometimes, when she is to be for several weeks at any place she has a few bulbs growing in another of the inexpensive artistic

IS THE IMPUDENT CHILD TO BE BLAMED?
Parents, to be successful, simply must bear in mind that respect begets respect. Where there is mutual respect between a child and its guardians there is no impudence or imperfection—for these two undesirabes are but disrespect expressed. Knowing this the father and mother of the impudent child should ask themselves. "Do we show this child the respect that we wish it to show us? Do we speak to it in the tone of voice we wish it to copy when addressing us? Do we treat it as courtly, all things considered, as we wish it to treat us and others?"
I wonder if you can answer "yes" to these questions. I am sorry to say that I very much doubt it—few parents, unfortunately, can answer in the affirmative. Besides, if you could answer "yes" to these questions have occasion or take the trouble to an article regarding impaired children. And so if you are seeking help in the correction of injury, remember well that a show and remember well that a remodel invariably mirror and equip your own attitude towards it—and age can rightfully be no more important to youth than youth to adults. Nor should youth be impatient to youth. Boys and girls should learn from the beginning that impatience and incessance to other children is an important crime age, is quite as great a breach of good breeding as impatience to older girls. This is a rock foundation for context and clarity throughout life.
There is generally a child of spirit who will not occasionally even heated speech, but because of this a young person is not necessarily impatient. It is only when each outburst is habitual that a child becomes heated, then, mindfuls, it's time for that child's children to search for the moves in their own eyes. It is likely to say very many things quite unearly, and this possibility should be taken into consideration before sometimes an explanation is required rather than a scolling.

The Elder is in bad humor this, filled that contain a

"He that is amongst you with out sin let him throw the first
rock. What it says is 'let him cast the first stone.'
But it didn't no chances on you all misunderstand'd him.
Two twenty years you all been throwing
rocks at one another, but you wasn't satisfied. You had to commence throwing 'em at me.
Voice from congregation "Uh,

Elder—Uh, Uh, nothin'.
I quote.
I don't gon't warn you no me!
but in the language of that great
prophet Henry Shakespeare

He says, "Wash me and I shall be
whiter than snow."

Elder—Uh, Uh—That's all right

mornin' thinks you been, washed.
You ain't even been sponged.

Both bags was occupied. No

that he had secured the main article to his Thanksgiving

Eamous Contique Said To Be Com-
templating Entry Into Serious
(Associated Negro Press) ...
Chicago, Ill., Jan. 10. Bert W. William, who is now starring in Chicago, may soon enter the serious drama, according to information gained here.
One of the leading dramatic critics of the city recently commented on this fact, in a daily paper, he said:
"The melancholy twinge of Terry Williams' chief song in "Under The Hampton Tree," and the remarkable spell under which it holds the audience makes us wonder why Williams does not attempt soon what he has long claimed as his ambition, namely, the playing of a reed drama by a song he wrote. "I would like to race as sympathetically as Mr. Warfield a certain class of American citizens in the 'Amateurer.' Each of us who has Negro blood is one that never fails to stamp on the heart or the spirit its racial traits. The laughter I have done is only on the surface. Now I would like to strive deeper. My pin has done this amply as he amplified an artist as Williams. Aside from any problems of our American Negro citizens and the stage as a proper place to give them hearing, it is true that in one of the richest fields for the Amegian dramatist only the surface has been scrutied

**Prescription C-2223**
This Prescription was once the treatment used by a prominent doctor. Many discouraged men and women were made happy some were helpless and hopeless, because they never expected to get well.
If you are suffering with aching bones, rheumatism, sorcula, ulcerous sores, eczema, or any conditions caused by bad blood, Prescription C-2223 will make you a happy man or woman.
Plough's Prescription C-2223 contains no dangerous or habit forming drugs, such as mercury, chloral, opium, cocaine or strychnine. It can be taken with safety by a child.
When taking Plough's Prescription C-2223, it is best to keep the bowels open. That is better than Plough's C-2223 Liver Pills. They do not sicken or give pain to two pills are a dose. Plough's C-2223 Liver Pills are also fine for bilirubin-tick headache, and all ill causes by constipation. A box should always be kept handy.
Plough Prescription C-2223 has been reduced in price. You can buy large bottles for $1.00—the trial size for $5; C-2223 Liver Pills—in the blue box for $26. If your drugstreet不提供 you at the above prices, both Pills and the Prescription will be sent direct on receipt of price.
If you want to know more about Ploight's Prescription C-2223, or try 2223 Liver Pills, write for almanac, leaflet and free samples of the pills.

Why Not The 24th Infantry?
|_ If the War Depaitment
finds it necessary to comply
|with the Senatorial Commit.
tee’s recommendation to
keen an armed force in
Hayti, is there any reason
‘under God why that force
must be white marines?
Three weeks ago the Ad.
jutant General informed the
AFRO-AMERICAN that the
9th Cavalry is stationed in
the Philippines; the 10th
Cavalry at Fort Huachuca,
Atizona,
The 24th Infantry, less
Cos F. & G. and 8rd Bat.
talion, is stationed at Camp
Furlong, Columbus, N. M.
Cos. F. and G. are at Hach-
ita, New Mexico.
The 3rd Battalion is sta-
tioned at Camp Benning, Ga.
The 25th Infantry is sta-
tioned at Nogales, Arizona.
If the Government finds
the need of an armed force
to keep the peace in Hayti,
San Domingo, can any
reasonable person under-
stand why it sends white
marines officered by South-
erners to do it?
Suppose the regular
troops are not available, can
there be an intelligent ex-
cuse for not calling in the
National Guard units of Illi-
nois, New York, Maryland
and Massachusetts for this
service?
Despite his high sounding
proclamations, colored peo-
ple soon saw. thru the hy-
pocrisy of Woodrow Wilson
and expected nothing less
than the vicious and inhu-
man attacks he made upon
the sovereignity of the little
black West. Indian_ repub-
lics. But what of Harding,
the Republican? Is it to be
said that he too will become
the same blundering dun-
der head that the nation had
in Woodrow the deceiver?
Is not the failure of the
Administration to use its
colored troops in Haiti and
San Domingo, an open and
candid confession that its
policy:is hostile, vicious, and
unworthy of the spirit of
true Americanism?
Jack Johnson to The Rescue
A thousand smiles seross the
county to save a friend from
Hotter's eld, ‘
| This ix the most recent exploit
n¢ dack Johnson, who jumped
from Cincinnati, Ohie, where he
was showing in a theater to New
York on a fast flyer in order to be
present at the funeral of his form-
or antagonist, Sain MeVey. who
died penniless, — Besides tnaking
an address at the final service,
duck paid a large part of the fun-
eral expenses.
“A game fighter," Jolinson de-
claved in answering the question
why he made the long trip. “He
was the toughest man T ever met,
and he hit me harder than any
other tan T ever fought.”
Al of which shows that you
cannot guess the reasons for men’s
friendships any more than you
can guess the reason why some
women niarry some men.
Germany Appeals
| To Garvey
Germany has asked Mareus
Garvey 10 usa his influence to
have France regal her black
troops from the Rhine region.
‘This in brie ix the meaning of
the appeal of the German Emer-
gency League against the Black
Horror to Honorable Mareus Gar-
vey, president of the Universal
Negro Improvement Association
of New. York. The latter flatters
Mr. Garvey, but more than this, it
shows that the German jackasses
ave trying to stir np feeling of the
colored people in America against
‘the French. if Germans can get
Mr, Garvey to pull thelr chestnuts
out of the fire, then we are mis.
taken In our estimate of the U. N.
1. A. head.
“We have an aversion to colored
troops” says the Reform League
in the letter to Mr, Garvey, which
also declares that France is trying
to weaken the Africans by enlist:
ing their best men in the French
army and sending them to Ger-
many. “Countless colored mer
will be annually conscripted inte
the French ampy by laws which
are made in. 1929 without thel
assent in order to, serve the white
Frenchman as cannon fodder ir
case of need on some battlofield o
the future in some distant part o
the world,” the letter declares,
‘This last statement refers to the
excellent French legislative act of
1919 stipulating that every year
200,000 black men of the French
colonies:in Africa will be trained
in the use of arms, and at least
100,000 ‘of them must see service
on the European continent for one
year.
France is drilling an army that
Germany cannot mitch and this fs
ihe thing that sticks In the Huns’
craw.
‘When the black subjects of
“belle France’ complain of
verving in the French arms, and
make one half as much protest
against their’ treatment by the
French government as the Ameri-
can colored man makes against
the American government, it will
be time for Mr. Garvey and the
rest of us to become interested in
the FEARFUL (7) plight of Ger-
many.
It Pays To Bolt
Following President Harding's
advice not 10 vote always for the
Kepublican party candidates, a
large number ot the colored peo-
me of Evansville, Indiana, voted
for Democrats in the last city elee-
ion,
‘The other day the new Demo-
cratie mayor immediately —ap-
pointed three colored policemen
and three colored detretives 10 the
force. ‘The city hax been under
control of Republicans for years,
and never had uw single colored
“cop.”

Hanged By A Voice
Down ia*Columbia. Govtn Caro:
Jina, a white girl was eriminalty
attacked last Friday night, + ‘The
irl did not see her assailant. She
does not know whether he wns
white or colored. She only heard
him speak,
AIL the week @ number of color.
cd suspects were brought to the
City Jail mong them one Herbert
Henry, Hemry tatkea and read
while the gir) tooked at him and
Tistened, When he concluded, she
said she would give her decision as
to whether he is the right’ man
later.
Henry may not be the right
man, Mut if he has a voice any-
thing Ike that of the man who
attuecked the girl, a South Caro-
Jina mob or executioner ean be
expected to begin work at once.
Whose Country Is It?
Next time any one tells us this
is a “White Man's Country," we
will refer him to Professor Leon
Wiener, white, of Harvard.
Professor Wiener was the guest
of the American Negro Academy
at Its annual meeting in Washing-
ton Inst week, and some ot his
satements ought to become
familiar to every sehool boy and
i.
He said: When Columbus cane
to America, he found that the
Mandingo Negroes of Afriea were
here ahead of him, and had
brought to the American Indians
the civilization found in Mexleo
‘and Peru, On his return Columbus
omitted to. the Spanish King
Philip that he had found Nesroes
Inere, but historians have, passed
over the fact preferring rather te
make it appear that white men
vere the first to discover America,
The Tndian custorns, religion, med-
eine men and war dances were de-
rived from the African Negroes,
fono haa taught it to the Tadlans.
The Mandingoes settied in Mexico
and South America and*when Bal-
found that one Christian Negro
had taught a tribe of Indians there
Christianity.
“go wind up and coniplete the
story, Professor Wiener declared
that the Mandingo Africans came
from the Nite valley and at that
time represented a type of civiliza-
tion on a par with that of the best
Europe offered.
A little mare search tn the his-
tory of the past may disclose some
black discoverer qiuite as courage-
ous and hardy as Columbus, who
was the first civilized person to, ret
foot onthe NEW WORLD. |

Jim Crow Cars
Get Another Blow
| ‘The ruling of Judge McCoy of
the District of Columbia Supreme
Court, that the Jim Crow law of
‘Maryland, which makes it,a. crime
for. white and’ colored passenger:
to ride in the same part of a rail-
road train or electric car, is uncon.
stitutional and yold as applied to
inter-sate colored —_ passengers
strikes another blow at his nefar-
ious practice.
‘The court held that the Wash-
ington, Baltimore and Annapolis
Railway Company's regulation
segregaiing white and colored pas-
sengers was mnenforceable and di
rected a jury to pay Mesers, F. V.
Brooks, and W. A. Walters the
sum of $309 each. Both men had
refused 10 oceupy rear seats in an
electric ear, and were evicted at
Bost Gate, Ma., last year,
The company by way of defense
declared that the car was a local,
and that it had no way of knowing
whether the passengers were in-
terstate or intra-state, an@ pointed
out that under the court's inter-
pretation some of the puswengers
on every train would be seyresated
and others would be permitted to
sit where they pleased,
‘The Hart case several years ago
kilied the jim crowing of inter-
state paxtengers on steam rail-
ronds, and it is falrly certain that
Judge MeCoy's decision will do the
sime thing tor the electric rail-
ways, For twenty-two years pas-
yengers out of Washington have
been forced to travel to points of
Virginia in Jim Crow comet
ments of electric railways. ‘The
iNegal practice has also been going
on for eighteen years on the clec-
trie oars between the capital and
nearby Maryland points, hut not
between Washinglon and Balti-
more.
It is time that patriotic Ameri-
cana took the steps inaugurated
by Messrs, Brooks and Walters a
make the eleetrio railways con-
form to the law,
Homicides and Lynchings
| Wherever there are many lyaeh-
ings, says the Boston ‘Sranscript,
there ave also many caxes of hort.
cide, Conversely where there are
many homicides, there are many
Iynchings. ‘The two abominations
ko together, and wherever the one
is rare so Is the other.
In support of this contention the
‘transcript adduces the following
statistics:
"In the State of Georgia there
wore, in the pust"36 years, no few:
er than 528 lynchings, 2 larger
number than In any other State,
In the city of Atlanta, in 1920,
there were homicides at the rate
of 409, and in the city of Savan-
nah at the rate of 449, to the mil
Mon of population.
“By contrast, in the State of
Maryland there were in the sim
period only 23 lynchings, and in its
metropolis of Baltimore the ratio
of homicides to the million people
was only 70,
“In the State of Tennessee there
were 198 Iynchings, und in its city
of Memphis there were homicides
at the rate of 634 to the million,
By contrast there were in the State
of Ohio only 20 lynebings, and in
Cincinnati} the homicide vate was
only 57 to the taftlion.
"In South Carolina there were
in 86 years 121 lynchings, and in
the city of Charleston there were
in 1920 homicides at the rate of
365 to the million, Jn Wisconsir
there were only five lynchings, and
eh homicide rate in {is metropolis
of Milwaukee was only 90.
| “tm Louisiana lynchings num:
bered 289, and the homicide rate
ras 169. In Californla. lynchings
were 3, and the homicide rate
was 78.
“While Southern cities range
from 300 to 800 and more homi-
cides to the million, Philadelphia
reperts only 62, nnd the State of
Pennsylvania had only «ix -Iyneh-
jings in the 36 years. New York
elty with, sts enormous foreign
‘poputation, with feuds and ven-
jdettas innumerable, had only 5!
‘homicides to the million; and New
‘York State had in 36 years only
‘two lynchings. Finally, Boston
which is by no means a city 0!
[perfect peace ‘and brotherly fove
had a homicide rate of only 51 tc
the million, and the State of Mas:
sachusetts proudly claims to hav
Mad in the period named not ¢
single case of lynching.”
It should not surprise us to fin
these two things, lynching ani
homicides, ,going hand in hand
The former is collective murder
the latter is individual murder
Both spring from the spirit of in
excusable barbarism and back
lwardness, which we know exist i
