only way for Mechanies Saving Bank to restore confidence is for its present officers to resign and for a new organization to be built up." This is what Oliver J. Sands, white, president of one of the big downtown banks, told John Mitchell this week. Mr. Mitchell had asked the white banker's aid in securing the re-opening of the Mechanies Savings Bank, which has been closed by bank examiners. Mr. Mitchell and other officers are out on bail on the charge of misusing funds of the bank. Sands told Mr. Mitchell that the affairs of the institution should be liquidated, either through one of the existing colored banks or by a new, colorized bank to do business at the site of the Mechanies. Sands said he would not enter a refinancing plan, but was merely giving advice as to how the bank could be co-peered.

FRANK RUSSELL NAMED HEAD OF CITY SCHOOLS
New Supervisor Comes To Baltimore From Douglass Public School, Cincinnati
HEADS ELEMENTARY SCHOOL
School Commissioners Turn Down Requests of Two Delegations
Frank M. Russell was named supervisor of colored elementary and teachers training schools of the meeting of the Board of School Commissioners Friday. He will not supervise the work in the High School, as recommended by Dr. Strayer in his recent school survey.
The new school head comes to Baltimore from the principalship of Douglas Public School in Cincinnati, Ohio. He is a graduate of the University of Cincinnati with the A. B. and A. M. degrees. He has also done some work towards the degree of doctor of philosophy.
Mr. Russell began his career as an elementary school teacher, was first assistant in the Colored High School of Covington, KY, and principal of the colored school Newport, KY, from 1905-1908. For the past thirteen years he has been head of Douglas Public School
Before he took charge of Donglass School it was a high school for white and colored children. As principal, he developed it into a high and vocational school for colored children only, with an enrollment of over a thousand. This school is noted as the best equipment kind in that section of the country, and has drawn visitors from far and near. Its equipment has come not only from city funds, but from friends of education in the South. Mr. Russell was sent on special missions by successive superintendents of Cincinnati to inspect and provide upon education for colored people in various Eastern cities, and in various Western and Southern cities from Detroit to Kansas City and to New Orleans. Particular service rendered in discovering and developing special types of work for colored schools and in securing teachers' best adapted for improving conditions. He was in Baltimore two months ago to go over the situation with Superintendent West and the school commissioners, and stopped at the Y. M. C. A. Dr. West stated he will return as soon as Cincinnati releases him and will have offices in the Training School.

EARL JOHNSON REFUSED TO RUN DETROIT RACE
Told Officials He Would Not Compete Over Same Course Used Last Year
HUBBARD IS STAR
Wonder Kid' Takes Three Cups and Four Medals In Masonic Meet
By Earl Johnson, National five, ten-miles and cross-country champion, Detroit, Mich., Sept. 21.—Just one word to my friends in explanation to the report spread in all of the daily papers that I quit in the Detroit News Marathon.
It is not a disgrace to quit in anything when you have done your best, or when it is physically impossible to continue, so it is not that I am ashamed that I make this statement.
The race in question was 24 miles over the same course I ran last year. At the time I won the event I told the officials I would not run the event again if the same course was used.
The course was supposed to have been changed and when I arrived in Detroit I found it to be the same. Of course I told them would not run the race. The officials asked me to start the event because it had been advertised externally.
Started with their knowing that I was only running a couple of blocks to make their word good.
After five blocks I climbed into our car and went to the Country Club and ran the five miles as was planned. I won the event with ease, of course you can see why the report of "quitter" was published since I am a black man.
Who Huldbard Is
Just a few months ago I made the prediction that Deborah Hulbard was the only athlete in the country who had a chance to beat the twenty-five foot jump of Ned Gourdon, the Harvard star. When this prediction was made no one knew of the young photojournalist this district who had seen him jump in the meets around here. At these times he did nothing out of the ordinary. He beat the fellows against whom he was competing with ease, but the jumps were around 22 feet. Last year he jumped 22 feet in one meet and the officials, as they at was of when a face man accomplished anything, though 24 an ace
Won $3,000 Scholarship
In the fall of last year Hubbard won a scholarship given by the Cincinnati Enquirer worth $2,000, and decided he wanted to go to the University of Michigan. He and his team there knew number and this was the beginning of a career that is bound to be one of the greatest along athletic lines. (Continued on page 5)

FILIBUSTER TO KEEP DYER BILL OFF CALENDAR
Senator Shortridge Tells Baltimore Delegation Southerners Are Wasting Time
SENATOR FRANCE ACTIVE
Moved To Take Up Anti-
Lynching Bill Saturday,
But Was Defeated
Washington, D. C., Sept. 19.—Democratic senators from the South are allibustering so that there won't be time enough to consider the Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill before the Senate adjourns. Senator Samuel M. Shortridge, (Rep. Cal.) told a delegation from Baltimore in Senator France's office today.
The delegation was appointed at a recent mass-meeting at Ames M. Church there to come to Washington with resolutions and urge the Judiciary Committee to use all influence to secure the passage of the Dyer Bill. Members of one Baltimore delegation were:
Dr. Ernest Lyon, chairman of the committee; Mr. Wayland P. Cunaway, representing the Labor Organization; Rev. C. H. Stephan, Dr. M. H. Ivans, representing the N. A. A. C. P.; Rev. A. B. Callis, Rev. C. H. Briggs, and Dr. J. H. Jonkins, representing the M. E. Church; Rev. S. A. Vigil, Rev. T. W. Lane, representing the Baptist Teachers' Meeting; Rev. C. H. Green and Rev. W. H. Clinton, representing the A. M. I. Teachers' Meeting; W. T. Andrews, of the Herald-Commonwealth, and a member of the N. A. A. P. P.; Mr. Alexander Williams, and Miss Ivy Boone, representing the AFROAMERICAN.
Seng(or France Speaks
Before introducing Senator Shortridge, Senator France told the delegation that there were a series of bills to come before the Senate before the Dyer bill. The Coal bill will first be discussed, then the Tapper Wheat bill, then the Liberian Loan and finally and Anti-Lynching bill.
On Saturday I made a motion to have the Dyer Bill taken up, but I was ruled out. Democratic members have told me that they will not let it pass this session. We propose to light for it and will not quit until it comes through this session.
He added that he had suggested to the Republican leaders that the Senate have night sessions in order to finish its work in time. This suggestion also, he declared, was turned down.
Senator Shortridge Speaks
The statement of Senator Short ridge was brief, but impressive. He said:
"As a lawyer I defended colored men and women. I can be truthfully said by every colored man and woman that I am their friend.
I am on the Judiciary committee, and you know, simply because there is a reputation placed, which cannot be removed, the others, on the conditionality ground. I believe the bill to be perpetuated and that it is just and right.
"The tariff bill will be disposed of this Morning. The loans bill will soon be out of the road. The conformity question will be answered, and the Liberian Loan is published, but will come along. These bills will be discussed to a great length not only because of the提案, but also those who oppose the bill, but those who discuss the other bills to prevent the Dyer Bill from coming up.
In the meantime, even when we propose to speak for this bill,
Southern Senators Kill Time
A motion of Senator Ashurst (Dem. Ariz.) to kill the bill to loan the Liberian Government $5,000,-000 was defeated in the Senate Thursday by a vote of 28 to 23. Although the question of the loan is now before the Senate, there was very little real discussion of it, either last week or early this week. But nothing else but the Liberian loan is discussed in order to make time. For two days, Senator J. Thomas Helfin (Dem. Ala.) succeeded in preventing Senator Shortridge from having an address by Senator W. M. Calder, of New York, read in to the Record. Senator Shortridge succeeded in getting unanimous consent finally on Saturday to have the address printed, but was again blocked by Helfin when he attempted to comment on it. The Senate delivered at Nazarene Congregational Church, Brooklyn, ten days ago, Senator Calder said he was sure the Dyer Bill will be passed, if not at this session, immediately after, when a new Congress convenes. Republicans Are Spoofing That Republicans are spoofing and do not mean to the Anti-Lynching Bill, was the declaration Senator Robinson (Dem. Ark.) made before women voters in Indiana and read into the Congress Record. Senator Robinson said.
"Another false pretence by which the Republicans in Congress seek to conflate colored citizens and secure their rights under the Dyer Anti-Lynch bill. It proceeds on the theory that the illegal and criminal action of a mob, in violence of some kind, has been directed at the equal protection of the laws secured to every American citizen the Thirteenth Amendment to the Federal Constitution. The bill was never intended to pass. It is brought forward in the Senate when Congress is about to adduce a bill to the Senate that would secure voters' belief there is a bravery of some purpose to enact its provisions into law, when the real object is to reaffirm gratitude and consequently their same rights."

Mt. Auburn Says Five Feet. Louden Park National Cemetery Says Six Feet
This is complaint that reached the AFRO-AMERICAN office this week and started an AFRO representative out in investigate, the found that Mt. Auburn is well within the law, but is violating ordinary custom which sets the depth of graves six feet deep according to the Health Department, the City code of 1906 provides that the depth of graves shall be four feet six inches. The Health Department was backed up by the City Librarian's office, which told the AFRO-AMERICAN that an earlier statute of 1905 still unrepealed sets the minimum depth of graves at four feet six inches and provides a penalty of $200 or any person who digs or causes to dig the grave below these specifications.
At Louden Park Cemetery, the custom is, according to the manager there, to dig all graves six feet deep, which will allow a depth of four feet six inches of earth above the box in which the casket is placed. The manager did not know of any law governing the depth of graves, but said he had been directing the manager of the national馆 for a good many years and had followed that custom.
At the office of the Mt. Auburn Cemetery, the AFRO-AMERICAN was informed that the usual depth of graves dug there was six feet, but Superintendent James F. Hall on the grounds declared that he ordered all graves dug five feet deep except in the case of ordered members of the Massachusetts Board. For the depth was increased six feet.
Incidentally the AFRO-AMERICAN found out that there were an general rules governing cemeteries in the city. Lam, a landmark funeral hall, is additional for Sunday funerals. Mt. Auburn Cemetery charges $10 for Sunday funerals and this sum is regarded as an extra tax for the purpose of discouraging funerals on that day. Closing hours varied, some of them shutting the gates as early as four o'clock and others as late as five

Meeting his old friend and for a mere rival, Franklin Palm, 627 Pitcher street, on Pennsylvania avenue, Saturday afternoon a few minutes before 5 o'clock, George Smoot, 94 Holton street, drew a revolver, fired three shots, one of which piece the heart of Palm, causing death. The shooting took place on the avenue and Pitcher street, and was the final outcome of a crimson trail of love for the same woman, boot-legging and bad feeling that had existed for more than two years. Crowds of market and theatre-goers sought hasty shelter from the zipping bullets. Immediately after the shooting Palm fell upon his face and was hurried to the University Hospital in an auto truck commanded by police officers and driven by John B. of the place. Smoot ran up Pitcher street to Argle avenue and then up to Freemont avenue, where he was taken into custody by the policemen. One was no in speaking distance of the two men when the shooting took place, but several men testified at the hearings before the Coroner that the sheeting occurred immediately upon a meeting of the men. Shortly after Palm crossed the street in trenant of the Reynolds Smoot came down Pitcher street, the shooting took place when they were within a few of each other.
Officer Martin J. Kelly, the I to speak to Smoot after the shading, stated that when asked he had shot Smoot, remark "That man tried to cut me to die a year ago and I meant to kill him." Elliott Burton, 1212 Parrish, left an acquaintance of Smoot, and told him that he had been sent to Bard, said to have neglected in the case that caused to cause trouble, testified at three leagues. Wednesday night Smoot had told her nearly 2 ago that he meant to kill I whenever they met. Smoot had been in the city of two weeks and had been room at 901 Bolton street. More than two years ago Smoot and Palm said to have engaged in an attack on Palm cut. For this he shot a short and prison. This altercation was of a love affair, the woman was case being Mrs. Josephine following this incarceration. Palm, Smoot and Mrs. Bard engaged in another altercation which she shot him. For this she also served a term person. This woman, who Smoot stated to an officer is his could not be found by the police for this paper, but has to be the police station to obtain queries of Smoot. Palm said to have been in love and it was out of this relation to he and Smoot, once friends, had their first altercation. Smoot is being held for the action of the Grand jury charged with murder.

DENOUNGES MOB LAW

Says Dyer Bill Is Meredy A Sop
To Colored Voters In
Coming Election
Mr. Henry F. Arnold,
The AFRICAN AMERICAN CO.
Baltimore, Md.
Years of the 10th inst. to hand and I return here with the newspaper copy which you enclose of the Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill. I older lynching, and deem it a practice utterly unworthy of any civilized people. Indeed, in my opinion, the blackest and most evil people are the militations and burials with which some of the victims of mob ferocity have been visited at times. Often have I said, in recent years, that, in my opinion, one of the noblest chapters in the history of the commonwealth of Virginia, is the fearless use that it has made of even the military power of the state, to see that very person within its limits, white or colored, was protected for trial. However, I cannot exasimist and violence and had a press my approval of the Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill. Because I agree with the members of Congress who national measure. Indeed, it is so plainly unconstitutional that I strongly unconstitutional that I be intended by most of the members of the House, who voted for it, as a more sop to the colored vote in the coming election.
Very Fairly yours.
W.M. CABELL BRUCE.

MATTHEWS—In sad, but having remembrance
of my dear mother, Harriet A. Mills,
who departed this life two years ago,
September 15, 1838.
by Two years of about sorrow
Two years of grief and pain
We stood beside your bedside
Dear mother we saw your life depart
And when I saw that you were dead
I will sit and wonder
I often sit and wonder
What you would do and say
If you only know the changes
That happened since that day
Nobody knows my hangings
But few have seen me waking
I shed my tears from an awakening
While others are fast asleep
God that will this will
But in my heart and inner peace
I often sit and wonder
What you would do and say
If you only have the chances
That happened since that day
Nobody knows my longe
But few have seen me weep
I shed my tears from an aching heart
While others are fast asleep
God called you home it was his will
But in my heart you never will.

ALEXANDER FREEMAN
He has a remarkable tenor voice which is pure, which he uses with a good deal of skill for one who has had no conservatory training and made a far finer impression than many so-called professional soloists. He sing three numbers each of which won an encore, the applause rising to more enthusiasm by his beautiful condition of Rasmond Johnson. "Since You Wear Away."

TAYLOR REPLIES TO CHELTENHAM ATTACK
Member Of Board Of Managers Asks James Ireland To Substantiate His Charges
KNOWS OF NO GAMBLING
Ireland's Duty, He Adds, Is To Bring Information Officially To The Board
The latter in last week's AFRO-AMERICAN by James Ireland, charging officials of the House of Reformation at Cheltenham with permitting drinking and gambling and with hiring the inmates out to work and curtailing their educational activities, was called to the attention of E. B. Taylor this week, who is a member of the Board of Managers of that institution.
When asked for a statement, Mr. Taylor said:
"I read with interest the attack on Cheltenham in your last week's issue. I regret I do not know Mr. Ireland, but if he is able to substantiate the charges he makes I do his duty to do so.
"Chiletenham is not a perfectly run institution, any more than any other State institutions, but I feel confident it is above the average. Our appropriation is very inadequate. Former Governor Goldsborough, who was one of our board and several other prominent gentlemen formed a committee which made a personal appeal to the error Ritchie and to declare for an increase in our appropriation, but despite result, I regret aside from the Rev. Brugge and myself who are on the board, the colored people display no interest in the institution, although we have endeavored several times to get up to parties to visit it.
"Regarding gambling, by the teachers, we have no knowledge. Naturally this would not go on during our visits. The murder of one boy by another was not kept from the papers by us. It occurred and the murderer was publicly tried in court and sentenced to the penitentiary.
"Dr. Bragg has for years persistently advocated putting in colored instructors and keepers, but for the salaries paid, I feel confident we could not secure them, even if the administration would consent to it.
"Every young man who is discharged at the expiration of his term—usually when he is of age—is asked his opinion regarding the institution and is asked for suggestions regarding methods of improvement. Invariably the reply is that he is grateful for his help, been done for him and what suggestion he carefully considered. When I go to the institution I ask the boys with whom I come in contact about their treatment and have never received a complaint which could be substantiated. You must not forget that most of these boys are sent there because they are criminals.
"I will be glad to take up with the board any charges Mr. Ireland will make, which have any tangible evidence behind them. At the same time I would like to bespeak the people in the institution at other times than when complaints are made."
"It must not be forgotten that for many years each secretary, who is managing director, as it were, has been a Quaker and none of us need be told that no Quaker would knowingly stand for injustice in our people."
The Julius Blackwell Post No. 12, The American Legion, Dept of Md. will hold their annual Memorial Service at Ashley M. E. Church Sunday, October 8, 1922, at 8 p.m. Program to be rendered by Ladies Auxiliary Unit of this organization, Service and ex-service men especially invited to attend.

Glass-Eyed Man Throws Glass Bottles—Girls Ride But
Lack Taxi Fare—Family Play With Glass Ware,
Cost $25
When the joyful mixture of "It was just a little playing be-
spirits, songs and beautiful girls" Comes the power of a charge
Thousands of Homes have been Made Desolate during Illness and at Death. Why? Because there was no Insurance to protect them. Protect Your Home by Carrying a Policy with us.
When the jovial mixture of spirits, songs and beautiful gels got too mixed up to suit him, a man with a glass eye began to throw glass bottles at a midnight party being given at the Perry Inn Cabaret at 1445 Pennsylvania avenue. Monday night, and when the smoke of bottle had cleared away, Clarence E. Swann, 1029 Mcullah street, was taken first to the hospital and then to the Northwestern police station with the evidence all over his forehead that a glass-eyed man could see how to throw as well as a man with two good eyes. Harvey Hoston, another member of the gay party, who had just about made his get-a-way when he ran into the arms of the law, testified to the efficacy of the glass-eyed man. Other members of the party were brought in as witnesses. Miss Adile Boardley, 1029 Mcullah street; Miss Helen Prince and Henry Rose, of the same address.
Swan and Hoston were fined 50 and costs each for disturbing the peace. The one-eyed man who threw the bottles also saw well enough to make his escape.
Misses Elizabeth Harrison and Dorothy Sykes, 622 George street, failed to make connection with their sell-beans Sunday, but they did make connections with the Northwestern Police Station.
It happened this way. Misses Elizabeth and Dorothy, all dilled up, employed Decemma Richardson, 1433 Webster street, who drives a taxi for Mrs. Bertha Brown, 438 W. Biddle street, to furnish the transportation for a day of joy they were to have with two swell guys in Washington. After a ride to Washington where the swell guys failed to connect and a trip back to Baltimore it developed that Misses Elizabeth and Bertha did not have enough money to make even telephone connections with the fellows.
At this point when their fare had amounted to just $15 they were taken to the station house to make an accounting. Monday morning they were fined $15 and costs each for the unlawful use of a taxi. tween myself, my wife and stepson," said Frank Mcarthy, when the three were arranged in Police

But in the play Mr. McCarthy had tagged Mrs. McCarthy in the face several times, leaving large beaches and cues and engaged corollus in a glassware throwing contest in which nearly all of the glassware in the house was broken.
"We often play that way," said Mr. McCarthy.
"What have you got to say about this funny game?" asked the judge of Mrs. McCarthy.
"That's right, Judge, we were just playing and fooling with each other."
"Well, that game will just cost $25 and costs," said the judge.

"Where have you been and what are you doing with all that junk?" the Reporter asked.
"Boy, answered Old Timer, I've been vacating down in Virginia to my relatives. They had so much fruit rotting on the ground, that I ups and makes all I kin into wine, and here I be toting it home for me and my ole woman next, winter.
"How about those sticks?" asked the Reporter.
"Then" questioned O. T. I cut them stick from ole Virginia blecked, and I gets it time this fall. I goin' to make myself a couple of canes, to take the place of this yer one, which is mighty nigh wore out.

"How are politics?" interrupted the Reporter changing the topic of conversation.
"Me and France won, didn't we? You Carriers wasn't in it?" said Old Timer with a laugh.
"Yes said the Reporter seriously, you helped France win, and what is he going to do for you? It looks like he and his fellow Republicans are calling down on the Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill, and he is not making any great effort to appoint Meitunin, assistant attorney-general, after all McGinnin has done for him. Now since you are double crossed, who are you going to vote for in the general election? Guess I will vote for Brueckner, old Dimer mountable.
"Naw I don't either. he added after a pause, 'Bruce is opposed to the Anti-Lynching Bill too. He told me so, I am gwine to vote for the Socialists.'"
"I know," said Old Timer "that George Wibanean didn't get Tested Grand Zalto Kuler of the Ellis cause he told one of them Virginia lodge, he could visit them account of having to ride in Jim Craw Cars. When them birds brought that air letter to the Convention and read it over more than a hundred times or more, it was Kitty go bar the door. We "botted Finley Wilson. You know he will go anywhere, anytime." I guess you have heard that we have a new school supervisor" said the fighter seeing that O. T. was about to leave. "He will have charge of all the school except the high School."
"All the skies except Mason Hawkins' university" mused the old fellow, "That ain't no news to me. Tain't notice what kin soopervise our university. Ain't Koch tried it, and ain't West and Wogle tried it, and ain't it the same mud puddle it was when Dr. Waring was here. It ain't had a new idea in it for five years, and I'm glad the soopervisor won't have that millstone around his neck along with his other weapons. I must be goin' up in Old Timer when I get my wink locked up in my cellar, and I take with you." With that the Reporter saw him hail Parker's taxicab and load his bottles and bags in it before climbing aboard himself.
Mrs. Stella Beaxton, 1306 Butter street, says she put $10 in a bank on Pennsylvania avenue July 5th, and withdrew $4 ten days later. When her husband, Thomas, needed the balance, he sent her to draw it, but she could not find the place. Both took a day off to find the bank, looked in vain, and when they reached the APRO office, Thomas had his doubts about the money being in any bank.

TWO GIRLS CONDUCT SHOE SHINE STAND
"Shine Mister" Is Feminine Cry Which Results In Good Trade
When Earle Cornish, 501 Jefferson street, decided that he could make more money on a strike job than shining shoes and left the city, his sister, Ethel and her mother, Mrs. Marcela Cornish, decided that the shoe business should go on.
Miss Ethel, who is just 15 and a school girl, solicited the help of another girl school friend, and has since been successfully conducting the place. On Sunday mornings they are from six to eight dollars, and according to their own statement are taking all the trade from their rival boys in the same business nearby.
They work together under the supervision of their mother and seem to be enthusiastic as to the future development of their business.

There is a heap of difference between Mohammedanism and Christianity, but we venture to assert that the Mohammedan Shriners of Sudan, Egypt are extending their arms to the colored Shriners of America in a more Christlike manner than the Christian white Shriners. After all a man can be a Christian without being Christlike and can be Christlike altho a Mohammedan. There is nothing especially Christian in the effort of the white Shriners to put the colored Shriners out of business because they are colored. On the other hand it is the act of a Good Samaritan for the Egyptian Shriners to offer to make colored Shriners their brothers.
The Ways Of Dixie
Tennessee needed several thousand and cotton pickers to harvest the crop. So the state board of education ordered the schools closed until after the cotton season. Some of the 7,000 colored boys and girls affected will not hire themselves out as laborers, but neither can they secure the benefit of school until the end of next month. It is not only in war that the principle of "might makes right" is invoked, but in everyday life, the strong exploit the weak when they can and capital sets aside the compulsory school attendance laws of a state in order to prevent a labor shortage.
The New Supervisor Of Schools
The AFRO-AMERICAN congratulates Mr. Frank M. Russell on his appointment as supervisor of the city elementary schools and the Teachers' Training School. It welcomes him to Baltimore and promises hearty cooperation in lifting the system from the educational mire into which it has slumped by reason of the lack of effective supervision. Frankly, the AFRO-AMERICAN has never been in favor of the term "supervisor." It believes Mr. Russell should be an assistant superintendent. The lesser term, it is convinced is a sop to those members of the Board of Education who boast of their Southern ancestry.
This newspaper also believes that Mr. Russell should receive an assistant superintendent's salary. Above all things, Mr. Russell should have the direction and supervision of the High School as well as the other schools. The High School is the "sore thumb" among colored parents. Its lack of equipment, its overcrowded condition, the disorganization of its teaching force due to constant replacements and inequal salaries make it apparent that a change of administration is necessary. The School Board on the other hand regards the Strayer Report recommending the placing of the High School under the new supervisor as another scrap of paper.
Likewise the School Board disregarded the petitions of colored citizens' committees representing every fraternal organization, every denomination and many of the civic organizations.
The School Board's stubbornness in this matter, its unwillingness to listen to argument or reason, augurs well for a war against its continuance in power, and a well-organized effort to change its personnel.
It is plainer now than it ever was that colored people must have a colored representative on the School Board in order to get a square deal.

To Keep You Guessing
Read these riddles aloud to the family, withholding the answers, and see how many can guess them.
What flower resembles a bull's mouth? A cowship (cow's lip).
Why are gloves unsuitable articles? Because they are made to be kept on hand.
Why ought men to be only half cooked? Because what is done cannot be helped.
Why is a backsplash like a safe steed? Because one is a horse-shoe and the other is a sore horse.
Why is a field of grass like a person older than yourself? Because it is past your age (pasturage).
What should you do if you split your sides with laughter? Run and get a stitch in them.
Which of the feathered tribe would be supposed to lift the heaviest weight? The crane.
SEPARATE OR MIXED
Harry C. Smith's Speech before an Audience in Springfield, Ohio (Cleveland Gazette)
"It is waxy more important that your children be educated with the white children than it is to have a million colored teachers in the schools." This brought a whirlwind of applause.
"For every mother's son of color who gets in your way," Mr. Smith said, "have this slogan, 'out of office' or 'out of town.' The law in Ohio is that this light in each and every case where there is a 'jim crow' school in this State it has been established with the consent of our people. In towns with Jim crow' schools the prejudice is five times stronger. Your fight is for your children."
Best Joke I Ever Heard
Send the best joke you ever heard to the Joke Editor, APKO AMERICAN.
One of the best jokes I ever heard happened in a court in Houston, Texas.
After the usual preliminaries, the judge asked if anyone wished to be excused from serving on the jury.
"I do," promptly spoke up a man.
"What is the excuse," asked the judge.
"I am deaf in one ear."
"Which one?" the judge asked in a low, sympathetic tone.
"The right," promptly answered the man.
"You'll do," said the judge, and the court howled. Emile Bret.
YOU TELL UMS
Weapons of 10,000 years ago have been dug up in Spain. Maggie's favorite, the rolling pin, was not among them.
The post office says the average man gets 112 letters a year. Not if he pays his bills.
Recent nights have been so pleasant the dishes find it hard to get washed.
When you see two men in the front seat and two girls in the back seat, they are married or they are kin.
When dad sits on the front porch without his shoes you know what's boss.
If you ask us, most any girl will take a hint if it is a beauty hint.
Our only regret is that we have but one vacation to spend in our country.

GEORGIA "DEATH FARM" MURDERER PRACTICALLY FREE
A. B.
John S. Williams, white, owner of the "death farm" in Jasper County, Georgia, where he had eleven colored men killed like beasts to bide the fact that peonage existed on the farm, is now in charge of farming operations on the 5,000 acres of land destroyed by the State Prison in Milwaukee, where he is serving a life sentence and where he is said to be the most favored convict in the prison. Williams neither wears stripes nor sleeps in the "Bull Pen" where the other prisoners are confined. He wears the gray uniform of the highest class of trusty, and has a bed and ears his meals in the infirmary. During the day he spends his time riding a horse from one part of the prison farm to another direct the cultivation of the crops.
Recently, he and the prison superintendent, B. H. Dunaway, made a trip in an automobile to a point in Jasper county near Williams home, and the charge was made that he had been allowed to return home to attend a family reunion. Because of this charge, an investigation was made by the State Prison Commission, and a state statement afterward was issued stating that Williams had taken to Jasper to assist the superintendent in buying clover seed to be used on the prison farm.
Before his conviction of murder, Williams was the owner of one of the largest and most successful farms in Georgia. Today, the State Prison Farm, which has no population, has been run by a well-educated, paying and a scientific basis under his direction. The prison farm is declared to be virtually his own. He directs the planting, the cultivation and the harvesting of crops. Although convicted of one of the most terrible series of crimes in the history of the South, he is living a much different from that which he had as a South Georgia hunter.
Dear Editor--Here is a problem for the young folks to solve:
In a room which had eight corners a cat sat in each corner in front of each cat was 1 cat and on each cat's tail was a cat. How many cats were in the room?
The answer is easy enough, if you get over the "catchy" part of the problem. There were eight cats in the room.

STRONG ON SYSTEM
From Silom Bulletin
At a certain coal mine down in New Mexico the superintendent was greatly annoyed from time to time by employees moving into and out of the company's houses without due notice of their frequent changes of domicile. It became impossible to keep the records counts straight on the office books, and finally the superintendent, in his exasperation, resolved upon stringent measures. He posted notice.

Heart Broken and her young man are "much in love." He has told her he cannot live without her, but at times she finds him a little neglect about keeping his "dates" with her. The last time she called up, wrote a note to the authorized and skipped to see her. She asks if she should telephone his home to ask if he is ill. I think it would be all right to inquire about his health, but without saying why you wish to know. If he continues to appoint you, he may more engagements with him on his way. Do not hold yourself clean.
Wants Her In His Church
Ida likes a young man 7 months her senior. They have never had a quarrel nor a cross word, but one day he wanted her to go to a church that her church laws forbid her to be any more mute to her always speaks when they meet. She loves him and his friends say he is suffering because that woman should be religious differences. My personal opinion is that the man should defer to the woman in these matters. Where this cannot be the case, if this cannot be arranged before marriage, it is not likely to be afterward.

Bisky-to Marry For a Home
Eighteen-year-old Della is in love with a young man who wishes her to marry him. Her home is not the one she wishes to know whether she is too young to marry and undertake the responsibilities of married life. Della marrying for a home is always risky, just as marrying without the consent of parents is not safe, much of a burry, wait awhile, you are young yet and have plenty of time in which to choose a life companion. Are you sure you can do nothing to make the home atmosphere more pleasant? Have you the grit and patience and the big heart to

Thinks Trustees And Stewards
Bear Part Of Blame For Street
Carnivals
Dear Editor:
I read an article in your paper relating to pastors, signed by Mrs. Annie Well, with which I heartily agree.
When the proper authorities refuse to release a permit to hold a street dance...as that's all they are...under the name of block carnival, why do our stewards and trustees keep silent while the ministers sell their religious rights for a few dollars and attach the church seal to necessary papers for some? Are they asleep or dumb in the church?
If so, let us hope this will be a general alarm to awaken and stop the same. And also let every Christian man and woman take their hats off to Annie Wells for sounding the keynote. HERMAN LAWRENCE
Only Genuine Christian Religion I
Found Among Colored People
To the Editor:
Sincere men, in their earnest efforts to learn the truth about the creation and our relationship with God, our Creator, often come to believe it extremely hard that God was divinely conceived. If they had the courage to tell their convictions, they would express the suspicion that a Jewish politician had more to with it than God did, except inasmuch God controls all natural phenomena.
Whether Jesus was begotten by God or not, it wouldn't be so bad if we had the genuine Christian religion promulgated by Him, but no such thing exists today, unless possibly amongst colored who have no successful enough, able to learn to be arrogant, impatient, hateful, autocratic, and If he were here the Department "of in-Justice" would be hunting and persecuting Him at the present time in the interests of "un-Americanism," for Jesus made the very fundamental principles of socialism and communism positively incumbent upon his followers as "the messengers" for justice for that you damned your officers of the Ku Klux Klan, would be "white Protestant rules of this—meant to be—free country." "The religion taught by Jesus was very simple, wronged no opa- tion, and charity was its chief princi- that and a simple rule that in our lives we were practically all there to teach us the teachings of the good Nazareth.

What will Mary B. Talbert do next? What next will the colored American woman do under her leadership?
An organization has been offered American women to get ONE MILLION WOMEN, of all kinds and colors, united by December 1st, 1922, against lynching. These women are to be asked to put down at least one woman against lynching. Look out, Mr. Lyncher!
This class of women generally get what they go after.
The organization is to cover the whole United States. Mrs. Mary B. Talbert, 521 S. 10th St., Buffalo is the National Director of the movement. Miss M. E. Jackson of Providence, R.I., is National Organizer. Each

TWAIN'S IMAGINATION
From Everybody's Magazine
Once a friend of Mark Twain was conversing with him about a terrible affliction of a person known to them both. The friend said:
"Can you imagine anything worse than having diptheria and corlet fever at the same time?"
"Yes," replied Mark: I can easily imagine some things worse than that—for instance, rheumatism and St. Vitus' dance."

It is pronounced -nah-eev, and in the original French, from which language it was borrowed should be without accent, tho in English the second syllable is emphasized. It means -unaffected simple, unsophisticated, artless. It comes from French, "native" in French, inence in turn, it is from Latin, "nativus," meaning "innate, natural, native." Members of the School Board naively assert that they are doing everything possible to improve colored schools, when what colored people wish is to have members of that Board so as to do for them.

DIVORCE RINGS NOW
Jewels Dispatch N. Y. Times
Jewelers have just designed a special ring for divorced people. It has not yet been decided whether to call it the "divorce ring," the "ring of disunion." The design consists of a cupid's head broken in half. It can be executed in several ways with various stones. Jewelers prefer that the new fashion will quickly become popular, divorcing having become so frequent that it is considered there is a need for a distinctive piece. It has been suggested that there be a special ceremony of exchange of "divorce rings" after the court issues a final decree in such cases.

New York, Sept. 20, 2004: Yvahiul Pike, white, told Tadher Simmons, in police custody yesterday morning, that she went to the National Hotel and registered for the night, John Toney, a porter, she said, made dates for her, for which she was to pay him $1.
About 4 o'clock the next morning, after Toney had made such dates, she said, she placed $194 under the rug and went to sleep.
On awakening about 9 o'clock, the $194 had disappeared, which accounted for the warrant against Toney for grand larceny, soliciting and pardering.
Toney denied the charges, but Justice Simmons sent him to Corporation court for two charges and dismissed the soliciting warrant.
Custinia was held under $200 bail for her appearance at the proper time.

The attention has been directed

not long since we sent a certain former with our recommendation. No a booking agent by whom was engaged to make a certain because that he failed to make by the extent of this agent's convenience in the Page prevented our inking in dutch for our well-earned efforts. These things hurt whole Negro profession.

Word To The Smut Hound. The smut shooters must think have forgotten, we We simply ignored for a time to see if the right would sink into their demeanies.
Somehow or other plain common sense fails to register with the mouth-touched and evil-minded lows. We would not concern ourselves about them but for the fact that the public indignation must them so often takes the form of a prejudice against all forced acts. But the most promising of colored shows failed to impress today theaters, other than to excite the reviewers on the tiles to adverse criticism of the cold atmosphere that envelope an otherwise talented company. The owner of a white act thatently worked on a bill with the colored acts was asked about certain team, and his report was cleverer; but their stuff is dirty." Thus this team goes to the sticks for failing to prepare their opportunities. The man who urde that report has been accused of the colored performer; many owe their advancement this kindly offices, given without error.

These mention of intimate marriage relations, profanity and depraved vulgarity may be a hit in some theaters but that class of houses is rapidly dindishing. Just remember that a few weeks' work won't make a whole season's living. Get wise, and come clean before it is too late.
NOTE:--
The above article is timely and sounds a warning that the class of performer alluded to cannot ignore. As Mr. Jackson says, there are managers who demand snuff, but the smut shooter has no place in the theatre and it is up to both the public and the clean-minded performers, to see that they are kicked out.
At one of the local houses last week, we heard the flibbish gag we have ever heard in some twenty-years of theatre-governing and in that audience were many women and children. If white managers have no respect for our women and children, (which you can hardly expect them to do when certain players of their own race show no respect for them) then it is up to the decent and industrious performers who are trying to elevate themselves in their profession, to refuse to work on a stage with such reprobates.

FAIR NOTES
By J. A. Jackson
The Mammassas Horse Show went over bigger this year than ever before, attendance, financial returns and class of entries all being better. Hartman's Quince Orchard and field museum, concessionaires conducted themselves well and did a nice business, according to Henry Hartman of the Fairfax Fair, who visited with the local association. According to Washington newspapers, there was an immense automobile parade through New York, Philadelphia, Baltimore, the Capital city and Richmond, as well as from adjacent towns.

At Wincester a two-day show was staged Sept. 6 and 7. The first day was not very promising in the matter of attendance; but the second day brought out an immense patronage; and according to the concessioner's reports the folks joked house some money. Trotting, pacing and auto races were carded and the moses were well received. Ransom's Hagittine Minsirae, a local organist pleased by the moses. While an ex-communion local table outfit, they are of course not up to professional requirements. Hartman's Band provided the music here also. On both nights, the band played for dancers in the town.
Irving Waters of Baltimore, and Thomas Mason of Front Royal, Va. were the leaders among the concessioners present. Oscar Jenkins reported to have contracted to provide the shows failed to show compelling the use of the local talent. Secretary Carey is well pleased with the business, and announces himself as ready to help make colored films still better than the National Association.
The Fairfax Fair and Horse Show announces that their program for October 11-12 and 12-13 has been completed, and the newness of recently purchased games, racing will be dispensed with this year and pageants submitted.
On the first day, the county schools will present a series of drills and exercises. On the second day competitive drills and exhibitions by uniformed secret agencies will head the closing day of the drill. By the closing day of colored cavalry from Fort Meyer, Va. They will do a number of spectacular stunts in addition to the usual regulation drill.
Correspondence from: W. A. Richardson, chairman of the Macon County Akkawan Fair date committee. Akkawan Fair dates indicates his intention to greatly improve the standard of that fair. He is in the market for all of the elements of a good fair now.
The North Alabama Fair at Huntsville, October 18-21 which is held up with six others on easy jumps in North Alabama and Tennessee is seizing the land for attractions that are adaptable to colored fairs. These Alabama fellows are sucklers for the right thing so whether colored or white, if your offering isn't CLEAN don't try to do business with them.
Other dates listed with the Page are:—
Kentucky, Virginia and West Virginia Fairs are all over.
At the Peacock, Md. Fair, August 28-30, the Cambridge, Md. Bond was the big feature, John Matthews is its leader with W. 11, Coldier managing the attraction, Percy Howell and 'bor' Rogers played the date and Percy reports that business was so good that the fair was not able to provide parking space for the buses, spite of the inadequate advertising of the fair, because of which the first two days were poorly attend-

Percy Howell announces that he will play every fair from Maryland South to Havana, Cuba.
CASH DIRECTS DANGERS
Nat Cash is rapidly coming to the front as a producer of dance numbers. Since public attention was directed to his work with the "oh, joy" show, he has released the choreographies of Jacobs and Jeromans "Bom 'Tom Girk' and Delphine Goe" Show. He is at present busy revising other burlesque shows. Early in September he was engaged to replace another colored director who was putting on a colored attraction for a white management. On arrival at the ball, Cash found that the men to be replaced was unaware of the proposed change. To show the disillusionment of life without notice, Cash refused to accept the work in spite of very alluring terms.
EDDIE GREEN PRAISED
Ebbie Green the Estiminor boy who has gained quite a bit of fame as narcotic dancer comedian and songwriter, received a nice notice in the review of the initial New York opening of "Town Talk" one of Harvey Gerard's white burlesque shows with which Green is a featured comedian. Ebbie has been in white burlesque for several seasons, and has not only been featured as a comedian but has written a number of melodies for the organizations with which he was offered.

Moss and Pryce have been a Soon presented triumph credit for several years past. They have good financial backing; but where they are to appear in New York has not been disclosed. I have been unable to dig up any prospect of information on this, yet there is no doubt of its being intended for Broadway as the show is far

theater.

musical comedy in two sets
and twelve scenes. The book is
by A. G. Moss and Charles Quander
and music and lyrics by Donald
Haywood and Peter Granger. It

FRANK RUSSELL NAMED HEAD OF CITY SCHOOLS
New Supervisor Comes To Baltimore From Douglass Public School, Cincinnati
HEADS ELEMENTARY SCHOOL
School Commissioners Turn Down Requests of Two Delegations
Continued from Page 12
Delegations At The School Board
Publication of the School
Board's plan to make the new
supervisor head only of the ele-
mentary schools brought two de-
tributions to the meeting Friday.
Bishop John Hurst headed a
committee consisting of City Coun-
cllman William L. Fitzgerald, Dr.
Ernest Lyon, Mrs. Rachel Tucker,
Mrs. Jennie Ross, Carl Murphy,
Ashleie Hawkins, George Watty,
Rev. C. H. Stephan, Rev. Fredre-
d Douglass, and W. T. Andrews.
Dr. The Bishop told the Board that
the white and colored schools were
separate, and the colored people
wanted an assistant superintendent
of colored schools with the same
salary paid to white assistant
superintendents ($5,000). Colored
people would have no objection to
the Board terming him a "super-
visor," the Bishop said, "provide
he headed all the schools, both
elementary and high schools, and
the proper salary."
Bishop Hurst also read the following resolution; adopted by a larger committee of citizens, which was called together at the office of City Councilman Wm. L. Fitzgerald on Thursday by Dr. Lyon. Bishop Hurst was selected chairman of this meeting also.
PETITION HANDED BOARD
The petition to the Board read as follows: To the Honorable the School Board of Baltimore City; to the number of citizens, colored people of the city, who actively considered the change proposed to be made in the school system, as it relates most particularly to the petition of Superior of the Colored Schools, come respectfully submitting the following:
1. That the nature of the work to be done by the committee be of the most competent assistant superintendent whither in the city.
2. That he be wholesome, and be prepared to contribute such elements in character and civic activity, as shall benefit specially the group with which he shall be
3. That the salary paid be equal in amount to that paid to any of the assistants superintendent in the system, serving in V. 10. That his supervision be intended to the entire system, in keeping with the Strayer recommendation, Vol. 2, Page 18.
5. That less than this will constitute an injustice to one-sixth of the City's population.
Dr. Diggs Speaks
Dr. J. R. L. Piggs, representing the Maryland Association for Social Service read the following resolution:
"We find growing sentiment in favor of more intensive supervision of our secondary education and a desire to have it more in touch with the educated people who are not in the request.
"To secure this result, we ask the appointment of a superintendent of colored schools upon the basis adopted in Baltimore for such an office, or, at least, the appointment of an assistant superintendent in Baltimore.
"We ask that the courses of study be so altered as to prepare the students to enter upon the substantial American college. We wish to bear the burden of sending our children out of the State to do what they should be able to do at home."
Another request for the best possible supervision of colored schools was presented by Bishop John Harris, on the part of the colored people of Baltimore.
Move For Supervisor Started Three Years Ago
he agitation, which has culminated in the appointment of a supervisor of colored schools started three years ago. Delegations besteged Mayor Broening for the appointment of a colored man or woman on the school board. The Board itself objected to having a colored member, and the Mayor declared he would advocate a colored head for colored schools.
This is what Dr. Strayer recommended also in his survey of the city schools. Instead of calling this head of colored schools an assistant superintendent, so the question was, Dr. West's official family and received the same salary as other assistant superintendents, it was agreed to call him a supervisor.
Number Of Persons Mentioned
There was no move on the part of the Board to follow the Strayer recommendation until last year. Miss Edyth Cooper was appointed supervisor of the first three elementary grades at a salary of around $2,500. At that time Dr. West said no further appointment of a supervisor of all the colored schools was contemplated. Public sentiment was aroused and civic mobilization petitioned the Board to carry out the Strayer recommendation. The Board then set out to find a proper person, I. R. Paul Brock, head of the Atlantic City, X. J. colored schools was asked would he accept the position if offered at $3,000. He
declined as did also R. C. Bruce, supervisor of county schools in West Virginia. Both men are already receiving $4,000 in salary. None of the country's foremost educators like Dwight O. W. Holmes, dean of Teachers' College at Howard University, Dr. Carter Woodson, editor of the Journal of Negro History and former college dean and supervisor of schools in the Phillipsburg, would consider the position on account of the poor salary of each.
What Would Pay More
What the objection of the Board of Education is to paying more salary cannot be learned. It is believed that the Board of Estimates would have offered a salary of $2,000 had it been requested by the School Commissioners.
Another educator, who was mentioned in an interview with the positions was W. A. Jainer, former at Wilberforce University, Ohio, who was in the city last week.
Among local principals, Mason A. Hawkins, head of the High School, had strong backing for the position, but the mere mention of his name evoked bitter opposition from both teachers and parents.
BREAKS ALL RECORDS

HIGH SCHOOL USES DOUGLASS THEATRE
School Board Also Names Principals of Public Night Schools
Union Baptist Church will be used for musical instructions and the Donglass Theater for assembly for the pupils of the Colored High School. Permission for these changes were granted by the School Board at its last session. High school principals were appointed as follows: Mason Hawkins Colored High School; Grafton Brown, School 101; George Owens, School 106; Wm. H. Lee, School 112. The resignation of Miss Bedell E. Chester, of School 105, was accepted.
WHADA YA SEE?
**Seeu While Passin' in "Philly"**
To the Editor:
Saw a colored "blue wing" sweepin' up Broad street while on the other side of the same street a handsome colored blue cost was perched up in a big arm chair guarding a beautiful mansion while the folks were away on their vacation. A little bit of light got a colored supervisor in a cabin, maybe a little more scruppily and they'll get some "throat and blue wings."
The old Jersey cows are on tuck. Saw a sign on a machine shop "John Blue & Co. Milk Manufacturers." Wonder if they make the cream to put on it too.
Was our driving in Fairmount Park when a fat lady in the car impaired. "When will we get into the park?" The pilot replied. "We're in it now." "Well, why don't they eat the weeds and grass down," said the F. L. i. t. c.
Saw two cars parked nose to nose on a big street while traffic cop looked on uninterested.
Turned into broad street from a side street, and was flagged by a traffic cop, who said, "If you want to turn in this street you gonna go down further where there ain't no traffic cops and turn yer bus in."
Saw a lot of undertaker signs tacked up against wall of Calvary M. E. Church. Wonder where they get that stuff? I thot you went to church to get a better hold on life. —D. A. M.

HENDLER ICE CREAM COMPANY IS UNDER FIRE
POSTERS ARE WITHDRAWN
Some Stores Have Refused To Handle Product At All, They Say
Latent opposition to "Fleannary Freeze," a new ice-cream confection put out by the Hendler Ice Cream Company has grown during the past week to a light blaze.
The confection consists of vanilla ice-cream made in the shape of a watermelon with chocolate ice-cream coating the seeds. The posters feature a jet black child with responsive features.
Dr. E. Verry Stokes, whose pharmacy is at 705 S. Sharp St. called up the AFRO-AMERICAN to suggest that colored people beyond the ice cream. "I never heard of any "shenecie" freeze or any wagge, did you be said?" the pharmacist calculated to humiliate the very customers, who are purchasing the goods." Dr. T. Henderson Kerr was another who objected to the "Pleasant Freeze" advertisement when the Henderson Company sent around an agent to out out how the sale of the freeze would be presented. Dr. Kerr and his assistant Dr. John Burton declared that there had been widespread criticism of the poster, and that it had been taken down after one day.
Milburn's Pharmacy, Druid Hill and Pressmann, handed the "Freeze" two days. At the end of that time, according to Dr. Lassiter, the criticism grew to such extent that they discontinued it.
Woodward's Pharmacy, 1400
Jefferson street used to handle the "Frozen," but stopped on account of criticism.
Dr. Hayes, of 1057, West Lexington street, says he is handling theender product, that catches the poster and old him the posters are a distress, and that he is not selling many.
Dr. Joseph Fennel of the Fennel Drug Co., Druid Hill Ave, and Giddle street, stated that they had never displayed the "Bleammy Frozen" literature and do not sell the confection nor the Uncle Dainty ice cream because he found it the best on the market for the money.
He had stated to them, his objection to use of the posters and that his daughter had done the same.
Dr. John Derys's Drug Store, Druid Hill avenue, and Oxford street, does not handle Hendler products and of course has not written about the frozen frozen. They have heard the posters criticised by edward people.
Chase Confectionery Co. 942
Druid Hill avenue, while using the
Hendler cream, does not use the
Hendler cream, did not use the
from the beginning.
At the Powder Drug Store 1204
Druid Hill avenue, the advertisement
is on display. Except receiving
a card from some unknown
person criticising the use of the
posters he had had no general
complaints. Considerable trade
came in and called for the confection
he said.
At Green's Pharmacy, Druid Hill
avenue and McMechen street, it
was learned that there had been
some criticism and that he pre-
preter hung his card. He handed the
product because of the demand for it
but did not push it in any way.
He stated that the demand for it
had constantly decreased.
The proprietor of Terrell's Pharmacy, Pennsylvania avenue near Laurens street, did not see any general reason to have sentimental objections against the use of the literature and that while the picture might be objectionable the use of the word picnimmy had no objectionable origin and not referable to children. Heather Manager Speaks. To an APMO reporter the General Manager of the Hendler Cream Co. stated that their attitude was far from doing anything to displace their colored patronage and that upon the first complaint reaching them they have not since pushed the advertisement of this product the utterance was called later to the fact that there was objection, he ceased pushing the publicity and covered the billboards with other matter.
As in the case of the Yukon
Dalatites, a winter ice cream con-
THE AFRO-AMERICAN
fection put out by them, the "Picanainy Freeze" is the property of a Los Angeles firm, they buying the Baltimore rights to manufacture and sell the product. All of the advertisement material was designed in California and sent here. Even the mats for the local newspaper matter was sent from headquarters.
EBENEZER PASTOR CALLED TO CHICAGO
Rev. C. M. Tanner Asked To Serve Bethel Church
PETER J. HARRIS
Dr. C. M. Tanner, pastor of Ethebeneze A. M. E. Church left Sunday to accept a call to the pastorate of the largest Church in his denomination, Bethel Church, Chicago. This Church, because of its prominence, is commonly called "Big Bethel." Dr. Tanner has pastored successfully in all parts of the country, from Massachusetts to Georgia. He estimates he has received 8,000 members into the church and raised over $200,000. It is proposed to build a great cathedral in the centre of the masses of the people in Chicago. Bishop Levi Coppin and Bishop A. J. Carey are enthusiastic for the accomplishment of this project on account of Rev. Mr. Tanner's wish experience he has been chosen to place and work. Rev. Mr. Tanner before coming to Baltimore was pastor of Metropolitan A. M. E. Church, Washington. He will return to Baltimore October 3rd to prepare to move his family West.
BISHOP BROOKS IN THE FAR NORTHWEST
A news article from the current number of the Minnesota, Minnesota Messenger reports Bishop W. Simpson Brooks of Baltimore there last week visiting the church he formerly pastored. He spoke at three meetings collecting $450. Bishop Brooks then left for Des Moines, Iowa, and will spend about three months more here before returning to the church's reporters reports that Bishop Brooks has raised $35,000 among colored people and $10,000 among whites for his work in Africa.
There were 10,637 colored patrons of the public bath houses during August. Of the 4,361 patrons of the Argyle baths, 975 women did their family washing there. There were 4,058 users of the baths at School No. 112, Calhoun and Laurens streets, while 1,258 persons availed themselves of the privilege at School No. 108, Caroline street, below Bank.

FINDS WIFE'S BODY HANGING BY ROPE
Mrs. Brown Failed To Recover From Breakdown Two Years Ago
Mrs. Eva C. Brown, 27, 1108
Riggs avenue, was found about
6:00 o'clock Tuesday morning by
her husband, Allen C. Brown,
hanging from a rope that had been
made fast to the upper door frame
which divided the kitchen and din-
room of their home. Although
frantic efforts was made to revive
her were of no avail, she having
been dead for some time according
to physicians.
According to the story told the APFO reporter by Mr. Brown Tuesday morning shortly after the discovery of the suicide, he, Mrs. Brown and their little nine-year-old son, Allen C. Jr., had gone to bed about a 9 o'clock Monday night and that upon retirement his wife seemed to be cheerful and gave no signs of the impending tragedy of the following morning. She had just returned from an extended vacation with friends down in Calvert county where she had gone to gain back her health. Since her return she had seemed much improved, according to Mr. Brown and all of her friends were delighted at the seeming profit gotten from the trip.

Two years ago, however, she had suffered a nervous breakdown, and had experienced periods of make-believing from time to time.

WINGATE & BROWN DEPOSITORS GET 10C ON DOLLA
Banker Missing Since Christmas Said To Be In Dayton, Ohio
