Court Records For Five Months Show 14 Girls Under 16 Have Been Criminally Assaulted Local Expressman Inherits $20,000 Estate In Birmingham Ala. Three Set Free In Criminal Court On Charge of Criminal Assault Records Show That Violators of Womanhood Are Rarely Punished Fourteen colored girls under 16 years of age have been outraged since January according to the records of the Criminal Court of Baltimore City. In only two cases have men tried for the offenses, received any punishment. Others were either found not guilty or paroled. In all of the cases, however, there was physical evidence to show that the girls had been mistreated by SOME-BODY. Charged with criminally assaulting 14-year-old Willie Fauntleroy, three beardless youths faced trial in Part 1 of the Criminal Court Tuesday. The boys, each of whom pleaded not guilty were: Louis Williams, 16, 1114 Parrish street; Edward Bush, 15, 1417 Riggs avenue; William Dappins, 19, 1405 Ponson street. In her story told on the witness stand Willee Faunteroy alleged that on the night of April 15, she, her sister brene and Idella Bradford, 726 School street, were returning from a visit to relative when she saw the boys. They were behind, she said, the girls reached an alley on Laurens street. Her companions ran but she was sized, dragged several blocks into an alley and mistreated by all three of the boys one of whom bit her finger during the struggle. In the meantime the sister ran home and reported the affair to Mrs. Faunteroy and the officer who witnessed the attack and set out to harm the girl. While they were searching for her she had managed to get home bruised and with her clothes torn and disheveled. Dappins Admitted Being With The boys were arrested that night, and according to Lieut. Wilhelm of the Northwestern District, Dupons admitted that he and the boys had been with the girl. Idella Bradford and Irene Famultery who escaped when the boys both corroborated this testimony. Examination by Dr. Waters, physician with the police department also bore out the story told by the girl. Youth Sayes Boys In their defense the boys denied the charges of the girls, stating that they had merely ran upon the trio and that nothing wrong had happened. The whole affair was proclaimed a force by the attorneys for the defense and the ages of the boys protected two of them from conviction of the crime of carnal knowledge. The verdict of the court was, not guilty. The fact that there is always generally some doubt on the part 65 of the law, the statement of girls of this type that they were forced by violence to submit to mistreatment, and the fact that the law provides no protection for girls between the ages of 14 and 16 if the boy in the case is under 18 years of age, operates to save the defendants being found guilty. That it is difficult to obtain conviction in the cases of violation of colored girls is shown by the fact that of fourteen presentments by the guard jury only three of the defendants were givenactual punishment by juries or courts of these cases the testimony of the girls had been violated, but the doubt as to the use of force led to verdicts of not guilty in each case. 12 Similar Cases The following cases of rape, attempted rape and carnal knowledge were disposed of in the January term of court with the results indicated. Andrew Bailey, versus Reinnie Mack, not guilty. George Johnson, versus Thelma Harris, guilty but released on parole. Branch Bolling, versus Clara Morgan, guilty, 15 years in Penitentiary. Edward Bethea, versus Beatrice Jackson, guilty but released on parole. Roger Berryman, versus Helen White, guilty, 15 years. Sylvester Grimes, versus Mary McKim, set on costs, and released. Richard Press, versus Grace Smith, guilty but released on parole. Robert Tarter, versus Grace Smith, guilty but released on parole. Charles E. Dixon, versus Idella Parker, not guilty. Joseph Hall versus Carrie Lewis, held sub curia. JEFF SMITH WINS Portland, Me, May 24—Jef Smith, white, Bayonne, N. J., middleweight, won a twin six-round bout from Jamaica Kid, heavyweight. GARVEY SEEMS NERVOUS AS HE FACES A JURY "Provisional President of Africa" Charged With Using the Mails to Bamboozle and Defraud CASE OPENS AT LAST "No Law Against Dreams," Says Prosecutor, But Against Fooling Public HIGH LIGHTS IN District, Attorney Healy, white, testifying against Garvey created a sensation when he said he that Garvey to be a member of the Ku Klux Klan and no friend of poor, black people whom he mulled of $1,000,000. He testified that Garvey is indeed have purchased the steamer Yarmouth for $165,000, eight times what it was worth, but only $155,000 of this money went to the sellers. Garvey summarily dismissed his comset C. W. McDougald, and fingering his gold monocle, marched up and down in front of the jury acting in the defense of the lawyer. A witness testified that Miss Amy Ashwood, now Mrs. Garvey bought a house on 131st street making the initial payments with checks on the Black Star Line. Captain Joshua. Cockburn of Baltimore, who captained Garvey's ship on a voyage to Cuba with a cargo of gold part of the cargo went to passengers and crew, who sent out a S. O. S. we are drinking." (Crusader Service) New York, May 21—Marcus Carvey was forced to go to but today in the Government's case against himself and other officers of the Black Star Line (defunct) on the changes of using the mails to defraud. On Friday the case was continued with an adjuration from the prosecutor to the jury to discount any statement from the defense regarding race betterment as having any bearing upon the case. Assistant Federal District Attorney Mattuck, representing the Government, made the opening address to the jury in the Federal District Court presided over by Judge Julian Mack: "There is no law against dreams," said Mr. Mattuck. There is a law against anyone using the mails or color. It is regardless of their race or color." Thirty to forty thousand colored people would be better off today if the Black Star Line had never been started, for these unfortunate investors have shrures in their possession that are worth less than nothing. It is the purpose of the prosecution to show that various fraudulent methods were employed to induce people in all parts of the country to subscribe for stock in the steamship company which is now defunct after squandering over one million dollars. It will be shown that money from the U. N. T. A., the Negro Factors Corporation and several other subsidiaries, of which Carvey was director-general, found its way into the treasury of the Black Star Line." GARVEY IS NERVOUS While Mr. Mattuck was making his scathing defundation of the "president" of Africa and his financial schemes, Mr. Garvey sat leanning over a table beside his array of five lawyers headed by Henry Lincoln Johnson and G. W. McDougal. Every once in a while when an especially harsh thing was said the brilliant little eyes of the man who sent his propaganda the remote places of Nebraska would twinkle and a look of nervous care would overspend his face only to pass away in the next second. FRATERNITY AT MORGAN Nine students were initiated into the new charter established at Morganville by the Omega Psi Phi fraternity last Friday evening. Those initiated into a graduate chapter were Rev. A. L. Gaines, Dr. S. S. Goodloe, Sr., and Rev. E. S. Williams. Garvey Says: My case started Friday and will continue for about five or six weeks. It is a case that involves not only Marcus Garvey, but the existence of the Universal Negro Improvement Association. Understand that Marcus Garvey is not a bit concerned about the trial. It does not affect me as far as my work goes. That is cut out. My work cannot be destroyed. Garvey started out to secure the emancipation of 400,000,000 Negroes and to redeem Africa. That work will go on thru the ages. They may imprison Garvey, but how can they destroy him, when they cannot close his mouth? College Flapper Now A Reality Washington, May 25. The college "Flapper" has arrived at Howard University if one is to believe the statements of former Lt. J. Wycliffe Keller, '22, in the current issue of a student publication. Lt. J. Wycliffe, writing for the Commercial Outlook, sets forth a list of "necessities" without which any new student coming to the university for the first year will be barred from "polite society." Says Wycliffe in effect, any student can get along with $20 worth of text books during the year, but plokee wants to appear like a guest at a wedding feast without wedding garments, no girl will think of coming to Howard without a wardrobe costing $455 as a minimum. Included in this list are two formal gowns at $50 each, a $60 overcoat, two pairs of silk hose at $4 each, and underwear and handkerchiefs. "Wyckie" estimates that every student at the university has the following general expenses: For All Students Tuition, 1 year Lab.....$100.00 Books, 1 year.....20.00 Room rent, 1 year.....75.00 Board.....180.00 Total.....$285.00 The estimated cost of a wardrobe that a young woman should bring to college is as follows: For Young Women 2 sport suits . . . $ 40.00 1 rain coat . . . 15.00 1 rain hat . . . 2.00 1 street hat . . . 7.00 1 overcoat . . . 60.00 2 shoes suits . . . 50.00 2 gowns (formal) . . . 100.00 2 shirt waists . . . 24.00 2 pairs shoes, high . . . 14.00 2 pairs shoes, low . . . 10.00 2 pairs hose, lisse . . . 9.00 2 pairs hose, wool . . . 6.00 2 pair hose, silk . . . 8.00 Underwear and handkerchiefs . . . 50.00 Social fund . . . 60.00 Kelly Miller. Howard's most distinguished graduate, is declared to have entered the University a generation ago clad in a one-piece suit his mother made, and W. H. H. Hart, the noted lawyer and teacher, according to University tradition, walked to Howard from Alabama and arrived clad in "less than Kelly Miller wore." This, however, is lost on Lt. "Wyck", who estimates that the male flappers should not enter Howard with less than a $262 wardrobe. He For All Students has university the Lt. T. J. on the student adds consolingly that some of these articles "will last more than one sophisticate year and comparatively speaking college life is not so expensive after all." Here is the "Lefontain's" $526 wardrobe for young male fliers entering Howard: For Men 1 suit, sport ... $ 20.00 2 suits, conservative ... 120.00 1 formal attire ... 150.00 6 shirts, madras ... 15.00 2 shirts, silk ... 11.00 6 ties, to taste ... 9.00 6 collars, stiff ... 1.80 6 collars, semi-soft ... 3.00 6 suits of B.

Some time ago it is claimed that Mrs. Taylor practically is off all her property in charge of a white lawyer named Sollers, who supervised her funeral last week. Agents Fined For Soliciting Labor Greensboro, N. C., May 24. The continued exodus of colored workers to the North has resulted in the tightening of State law enforcement covering contract labor in several Southern States. Following the instructions of Governor McLead to South Carolina Sheriffs to enforce State laws requiring licenses for labor agents, Charles Hampton, colored, was fined $500 here today for "secretly enticing colored laboreps" to leave Greensboro for Harrisburg, Pa. Hampton was arrested as he was about to board a train on which he had sent ten workers. Edward Karabinus, white, was arrested at Petersburg, Va., yesterday after charge of twenty-five colored men on the way to a New Jersey cement plant.

He then took hold of her, and in an attempt to accomplish his purpose, she alleged, he tore some of her clothes from her body. Her continued resistance prevented him from committing further wrong, and he left the house. Immediately she notified the police department, and officers arrested Ross. Francis, the daughter, with whom Ross was keeping company, appeared as a witness for her mother. With tear stained face she stood between mother and the man she loved and told how she had found her mother with clothing torn from her body. Mrs. Cooper is 50 years of age.

Mulford went to bed one night a day or two before the Kentucky Derby was scheduled to be run, and dreamed that Zey would win the race. Early next morning he called on an old colored woman of the neighborhood, who was known as a sort of fortune-teller, and asked her if she could tell what horse would win the race. She read the cards and told him that the horse Zey would win. Mulford then drew his life's savings, $200 out of the bank and sent it to Louisville to be bet on Zey. Late in the night after the race Mulford received a telegram stating that his "hunch" plus his $200 had won $3,800. Mulford had never had a "vacation", so he spent $20 on an excursion trip to Cincinnati. Mulford announces that his next investment will be the purchase of the cottage which he has been renting for the past twelve years.

Every Train North Brings Black Men Greensboro, May 24.—The exodus of colored people from the cities, towns, and fields of the South to the North, "the promised land," is shown to be of large proportions by actual figures, first-hand facts the accuracy of which can not be disputed. For example, Southern train No. 32, one night this week carried between 190 and 200 colored men with tickets reading to points north of Washington. Twenty-two of them caught the train here, others were from points in the State south of here. And No. 32 is only one of five Jim crow trains daily going to Washington, north of those upon which colored people may ride, and there are seven days in each week. It is stated here that the steel mills of Pittsburgh and Ohio are taking a considerable part of the migration.

Gilmore Home From Claiming Big Inheritance in Birmingham, Ala. SEES MOB LAW WORK Local Expressman Also Saw Hundreds Board Train for the North How does it feel to come into possession of $20,000 unexpectedly? For reply to this question anyone can ask John E. Gilmore, 932 Stricker street, an expressman, who returned to Baltimore Saturday from Birmingham, Ala., where he claimed a $20,000 estate left him by a grandfather who he never saw and never knew existed. Gilmore's aged relative, Hiram Boeves, 28 years old, died in December, 1922, leaving his big farm, three houses with stock and equipment, to his grandson "somewhere up North." Lawyers immediately began the search for the unknown heir. TRAIL LED TO ATLANTIC The trail led through North Carolina, where Gilmore formerly lived and where he still has relatives, up to Atlantic City, where another Gilmore of the same family is at present on the police force and through him the rich heir was located in Baltimore. Overjoyed with the good news, Gilmore immediately bounded the train for the South has week and week the percussion claim before Orphans Court of Alabama, and with his title to the property immediately received an offer of $29,000.

Surrounded by friends I am lonely. In the midst of pleasure I am blue. A smile on my face and an aching heart. Sweet is the memory that never dies. Heart of my heart is buried deep Under the sad where my brother sieps. By his loving sister CARRIE CEPUS WRIGHT HARRIS—In sad remembrance of my dear son, Arthur A., who departed this life on his birthday, May 23, 1922, one year ago, age 3 years. Little eyes, so soft and gentle, Little soul without a stain. Little lips that smiled so sweetly Little form that suffered pain. The rolling stream of life rolls on, But still the vacant chair Recalls the love, the voice, the smile Of one who once sat there. There is never a life without sadness; There is never a heart without pain. If it seeks in this world for solace, It seeks forever in vain. So when your heart cometh a sorrow The first and the deepest you've known— Is the touch of God's sickle at harvest, Since He reaps in the fields He has sown. Devoted mother, JESSIE HARRIS The rose that was fairest and sweetest, And the one we most cherished and loved. Is the kind that God wants in His garden So He transplanted our dear brother above. By his sister, BERTINA ROEBACK—In loving remembrance of our dear mother, Mary Anne, who departed this life one year ago, May 21, 1922. You don't know the sorrow to be left alone Until God sends a message to your home; It is hard when He calls for one or the other WATKINS—In sad but loving remembrance of my dear husband, Rev. Jones Watkins, who entered into rest three years ago today, May, 1920. Three years ago we laid thee In the peaceful grave so low Thou no more will join our number Thou no more our song shall know. In my heart your memory lingers Tenderly, fond and true; There's not a day dear husband That you think of you. The rolling stream of life rolls on But still the vacant chair Recalls the love, the voice, the smile CARD OF THANKS The family of Mrs. Almira Watkins wish to thank the relatives and friends for their sympathy and the many beautiful floral tributes at the loss of their wife and mother.

WILBUR'S Eutaw and Biddle Deal with the advertisers in your paper CHURCHES BISHOP ANDERSON'S VIEWS "PERSONAL" E. Church Commissions Have Not Discussed Withdrawal of Negro Cincinnati, O., May 24—Neither the M. E. Church, North, or the M. E. Church, South, in their discussions on unification have suggested the withdrawal of the colored members from the denomination. This is the purpose of a document issued by the City Workers conference of pastors and laymen of the M. E. Church in session at Louisville, Ky., last week. The statement is signed by L. K. King, W. oblaws, I. C. McMorris, Atkinson, I. L. Garfield Penn, Cincinnati E. S. Williams and Miss Elsie Mountain of Baltimore. In part the statement is as fol- Bishop W. E. Anderson, Resident Bishop of Cincinnati, Ohio, of the Episcopal Church and a member of the Commission, recently addressed the Cincinnati Pastors' Meeting, commended most largely of the white ministers of the M. E. Church in about Cincinnati, with a few the Negro minister filling M. E. chairs in Cincinnati. The Bishop in his address, as was in a relegation to the Palermo-Afro-American, wisdom of a union of all Methusalem of a union of the United States with two racial jurisdictions, was his personal view and in possession of the Commission of the M. E. Church, or the commission of the M. E. Church, and the M. E. Church. WE should be noticed that the views of Bishop Anderson as to a union of all Methodisms with social jurisdictions is an entirely different proposition, from the published statement that Negroes in the church the Episcopal church the asked to separate church that church as suggested inscriptions in articles such as "COLLED ARE UBERGED TO FORM PARATE METHODIST EPISOPAL DENOMINATION," published in the Baltimore Afro-American and the Chicago VINGING OF METHODISM THIS MEMERIS" published in Pittsburgh American. There has been no meeting in continuation between Negro leaders of the Colored Methodist Episcopal Church and the Methodist Episcopal Church concerning any indifference of those members. You may say that the joint commission brought leaders of the Colored Methodist Episcopal Church to continuation for a conference with leaders of Methodist Episcopal Church is a willful misstatement and misrepresentation, and to possibility for the same is to be appointed for only in the imagination of the writer of the article.

Moses, of Philly, Tells Ministers World Does Not Take Them Seriously WHITE CHURCHES OFFEND One In Memphis Has Drinking Fountain for "Whites" Only "Nobody takes a preacher seriously. The world is cursing the ministry because there are so many preachers who are not preaching the Gospel," declared Rev. William Moses of Philadelphia, in a sermon before the Baltimore Baptist Ministers' meeting on Monday. He said that there was too much hypocrisy in the ministry for the good of the church, and that too many preachers preached regeneration from their pulpits, and do not themselves believe that they are born of God. "God wants you to teach these poor unseeing creatures, who are crawling around on their belies and eating dust that there is a better life beyond this, but how are you going to do the same of God yourself? You must make a man believe that can do any thing, can accomplish any feat which seems impossible if he accepts Jesus Christ as his Saviour. You must win a man's confidence. It was in Memphis a few years and becoming thirsty I went into a number of places and asked for water. At each place I was told that a colored man could not be served. At last I came to a large white Baptist church. There was a fountain and a large sign inviting "all you thirstiest" to a drinking fountain suddenly noticed a small sign under the fountain. "For white only." A large robust longshoreman came along, looked at the sign and you could see the hatred glow in his eyes. The language that man used would make your flesh creep. Then a sapper came to his lap and said: "Such dressed hypocrisy! I would not join a damned church if they were strung from here to hell." That is what hypocrisy is doing to the Church. "A man will come up and say he wants to be saved. You put him on his knees and pray a little and sing a little verse you ask him if he will obey the doctrine of the church and you know he is not fit to be taken into church. You shake his hand and he is a member of your church, and that man is worse off than he was at first.

Bert Williams Lost To Race Call VErnon 6016 Bert Will Lost New Biography Declares That Grandmother and Father Were Nearly White White Bert Williams is lost to the col- ored race. 1930 At least he would be, had he not lived, and died among colorado people, married a colored woman and called himself a colored man. The last word on this life comes from the pen of penny white, white, for a long time his press agent and is entitled "Bert Williams, Son of Laughter." From the very outset the colored reader sees Bert Williams losing his Negro identity in the face of claims by the white race that Bert was more white than colored. Says Miss Rowland "his grand father was Svend Williams, the Danish consul in the West Indian Island of Antigua and his grandmother three-fourths Spanish and four-fourth African. And so that makes Bert Williams white. Says Miss Rowland further "Williams had few inherent traits of the darky. In private life there was no trace of the dialect which made his impersonations irresistibly funny.

George Walker, Williams' first partner is referred to as an "American darky boy," and so on.

Jackson Edna Morton and a Mr. Yates, presented a new dancing act before the Carneo Club at the Renaissance Casino in New York on May 15. The act is a novel one that runs fourteen minutes with the following apposite sequence: an acceptable Egyptian number in costume. Yates follows with a "Frisco" type of dance preceded by a song. He has not a great voice by any means, but he has the personality with which to sell a number. The dance with which he closes the number is excellent. Miss Morton now turns to native dance, put on a Hawaiian dance. This is followed by a jazz dance by the male member with Edna joining in the finish of it. The closing bit is a marvelous Russian dance by the boy with Miss Morton joining the finale. The act should prove a draw on the motion picture reputation of Edna Morton and it is provided that the male assistant to the little lady is indeed clever. It is a perforate type of act that will enhance any bill. Young Men's Christian Association Presents the Merry Musical Playlet "THE LOVE GAME" Written and produced by Mr. Lewis H.

From Thomas Beer's story in The Saturday Evening Post Entertainment for Benefit of Gibbon's Institute Pleases Small But Discrimin- ating Audience MONEY FOR BABY DANCER But Teacher Tells Audience Her Pupil Resents the Insult An entertainment which was billed as an opera bouteille but was rather in the nature of a subimputed vaudeville show, was presented at the Douglass last Saturday evening before a small but discriminating audience. The entertainment was given in the interest of the Cardinal Gibbons Institute Fund and was under the direction to the Misses May Miller, Romaine Adams, and Constancia Whitart. The program consisted of a series of classic dance numbers both solo and ensemble; a fantasy entitled "Columette" and several popular song renditions with jazz dance accompaniments. Miss Brenda Readle the prologue in her style. upper tier. The most blessing of the classic dance numbers were the solo dances of Miss Bortha, Tighman and Miss Catherine Coleman, a dance dance by the Masses Zerita Septeon and Anna Short, and the Punisher Ballot directed by Miss Constantia Winterson. A recent seen here twice were recently Miss Wharton's dancers created quite a bit of enthusiasm and likewise a considerable improvement in formality. in philharmonic. The Columbia fantasy with Miss May Miller as Pierce, Miss Romaine Adler as Punichnello and Miss Connec as Wheaton as Columbus was weaved into the dialogue being read with pleasing diction by all three. The show was contained for the showdown of the entertainment industry up to the "show" the chief performer in this respect being little Miss Jupiter Brown who appeared to be no more than a half dozen years of age but who was a number of songs with the usual jazz dance trimmings that created a genuine applause. Miss Wharton, in a singing rebellion to those who had thrown money upon the stage to the gritted little toot, said that little Margaret is a pupil of the school where she teaches, and that having noticed her exceptional talent, she had brought her along to entertain the audience. She was quite indignant that there were those present who could so poseistice Art at the feet of Mammon. We suspect however, that little Margaret's sentiment on the matter was somewhat at variance with Miss Wharton's as stood in the 'wings' and contemplated the shiny pieces of silver and nickle which her teacher strenly announced she should not touch.

A trail boat and its six occupants towed at express-train speed toward three thousand miles of open water, through a sea lashed into foam by a maddened whale. A sudden turn: a shout!

MAY 25, 1923 LADIES' OPPORTUNITY SHOPPER BARRED FROM REST ROOM AT STEWART & CO Another Fails To Get Shoes Or Hat at Joel Gutman's Department Stores and Learns Why CHARGE ACCOUNTS CLOSED Hochschild, O'Neil, Hutzler and Gutman's Re- ported To Draw Line What is causing the color line to be drawn so tightly in local department stores? This is the question that local women are discussing in an effort to find a solution. A school teacher taken suddenly fainn at Stewart's the other day starts to wear a colored attendant told her she would lose her job if she permitted a colored person to use the rest room. A representative of OXNeill's told the Arto-Americana that this store does not desire colored patronage. Another colored woman reports that Hoebechle Kohn, OXNeill's, hurried to her store's do not want any additional charge accounts from colored people. According to some women, the migration from the South is to blame for changed conditions down-town. New arrivals in Baltimore are being taken into the churches every Sunday morning. Some of them unused to Northern ways are said to go down town shopping with approns on, sleeves rolled up, hair unconfined by any hairpins, and accompanied with several children untidy and unit to enter stores where on shopper are properly dressed for the street. Such a stout person accompanied by youngsters held up an elevator in Hochschild's Monday until she saw the car would not hold them all, then she got out. Another is said to have raised such a disturbance in Joel Gutmann's that a colored shopper who followed was refused permission to try on hat or shoes in the store. When she appealed to the floor manager, he explained that the former colored shopper had acted out, that the sales girls should be able to discriminate and that all future complaints should be made promptly. One woman said, discussing the problem that it is up to women's organizations to instruct the newly arrived sisters from the South how to conduct themselves in a big city, and unless they and the churches get busy the color question here will be greatly accentuated.

C., May 23. James A. Cobb, chairman, of the Legal Committee of the local branch, N. A. A. C. P., has won before the Court of Appeals in the District of Columbia, a Jim-Crowc involving the right of a color-ed passenger to travel from Maryland into Washington without having to change to the Jim-Crowc section of the car he was riding in. $500 and costs were awarded to Mr. William A. Waller, the philanthropist, for whom the victory was won, was ejected from a train operated by the Washington, Baltimore and Annapolis Electric Railroad Company, because, having purchased a ticket from Maryland into Washington, he refused to change to the dim-crow section of the train when ordered to do so by the conductor. The ejection took place in the State of Maryland, about midnight and Mr. Waller was compelled to remain there until sometime the next morning. In affirming the verdict in favor of Mr. Waller, made by a lower court, Judge Barbar of the Court said: We think that the appellee was an interstate passenger and that the Maryland law requiring segregation of white and colored passengers was not applicable to Jungle Shebas More Modest Than Our Flappers, Says Missionary Call VErnon 6016 Jungle Shebas M.

Genuine South American Panama Hats May Abandon Plan for Colored Unit in 3rd Corps Area Unless 40 Apply This Week Unless the mails bring in more than 40 new applicants before May 25th, the hope of a colored unit in the Citizen's Military Training Camp of the 3rd Corps Area will go glimmering. Up to the present few colored men have made application and Major Ecko told the APEO-AMERICAN that the plan to form a colored unit may have to be abandoned this year. The Major added that, although the Department had sent out numerous announcements and had had the cooperation of such leaders as Principal Moton of Tuskegee, the colored men have not applied. If, however, enough men do not apply, efforts will be made to establish a separate camp next year somewhere in the center of this Area and make a larger effort to enlist the interest of the colored men. The "Citizens' Military Training Camp" is a part of the Army's program to keep a large civilian army trained for such service as may be needed.

Not a day passes but what thousands of people ask the questions: What is Herbs of Life? Why its phenomenal success? Why do we hear so much about it? The answer to these questions is not difficult. Herbs of Life, Nature's Medicine is a wonderful Reconstructive Tonic and body-builder. It is purely vegetable and is made from the most beneficial roots, herbs and barks known to science. The medicinal properties are readily taken up by the system, thereby aiding digestion, stimulating the appetite and assisting the stomach in converting the food into nourishing elements that build up tissue and nerve strength. There is probably not a single proportion of the body that is not benefited by the helpful action of this remarkable medicine. The system, besides being purified by Herbs of Life, is toed up and invigorated. It is rapidly overcrowded indigestion, non-assimilation of the body, general debility and many other complaints that are so common to the thousands of half sick, depressed men and women. Herbs of Life was designed primarily for the correction of disorders of the stomach, liver and bowels. At the same time, as stated above, it is a powerful Reconstructive Medicine, for it naturally follows that any medicine that brings about proper assimilation of the food COMPANY, Inc.

Mr. Walter Wessels, representing said: "We did not intend to offer any prize to the colored boys in the parade, for the simple reason that we did not think of it. But after seeing this school march past the reviewing stand, in their well-studied drills and perfect order we at once perceived that we had overlooked something of a presentation to School 101, and here it is." Whereupon he infused a monster silk flag-edged with gold fringe.

Probably eighty per cent. of all diseases originate in the digestive organs. Dyspepsia, or what is more commonly known as indigestion, is not only one of the most prevalent, but is one of the most difficult to treat of all present day diseases, and has for years lapped the skill of leading specialists. It is almost always followed by a complication of diseases. One of the first torpor liver with billiousness, followed by headache, coated tongue, dizzy spells, pain in the back, palpitation of the heart, and other distressing symptoms. Soon other organs of the body become involved and various diseases develop and become chronic if not checked in time. The first symptoms of stomach disorders, such as gas, sourness, constipation, foul breath, fullness after eating, pains in the stomach, headache, tired-feeding, lack of energy, should be the signal for prompt and decisive action. Tens of thousands of men and women, of all ages and in all walks of life, afflicted with stomach and liver disorders, some of them of long standing, as well as thousands of weak, thin, nervous men and women apparently on the verge of collapse, have testified publicly that they have been fully restored to the enjoyment of perfect health by taking Herbs of Life. Tens of thousands have not only been relieved of the most obstinate forms and injuries by Herbs of Life and the remedies had called, but many of them have reported a remarkable and rapid increase in weight along with their return to normal health and strength.

Not by a "durn-site." At the last meeting of the 14th Ward Republican Club, held at the Y. M. C. A., Thursday night, Miss Hazel Macheth head of the women's division in that ward startled the members by introducing a resolution urging the candidacy of former City Councilman Wurmer T. McGuinn for the State Senate in the fall election. Added to this resolution was a recommendation that at least three of the Republican candidates for the State Legislature also be selected from colored voters and three from the white voters. Miss Maceth's resolution put裤 in the otherwise ordinary session in the club and the discussion was slight. Discussion of the proposal brought out the fact that the legislative districts are the same as the councilmanic districts and colored Republicans in the 4th district in which the 14th and 17th wards are located would have no difficulty in nominating someone. The Democratic side has been discouraging it was said. It showed that Republicans can win in the 4th District if they pull off their coats and go to work. Possibility of the sending of colored members to the State Senate and State Legislature would secure harmony among the colored voters of the district, it was said. make all willing to forge party lines in putting over these candi- Mr. McGuinn has not said whether or not he would accept the nomination if offered him.

Lexington Street William Pickens Tells Story of Queer Incident Here for the First Dug Into Patient's Neck, He Said, To See What They Could See How Dr. S. Bernard Hughes, 1413 David Hill avenue, of this city, saved a coloured patient from death in a white hospital, is told by Dr. Pick- ings, of New York, in a special arti- cle for the Associated Negro Press. Dr. Pickings says: "Not long ago a colored woman had her throat badly cut on the streets of Baltimore. She is a white Negro, and the ambulance drivers nok her to a hospital where colored people are not accepted. The hospital doctors made the same mistake and were doing their best and their tenderest to save this "white women" until some of her relatives and friends came in and it transpired that she was colored. "Immediately those doctors began to dig into her neck—to see what they could see. They had often tried to see the inside of a real neck; to observe how it pulses, how the throat swallows, and to inspect the wonders of the living, governing tissues. Here was a lucky, find. But fortunately for the victim, more was also a Negro, and she was a perfectly white woman, nearly cut to death, had been carried to this hospital, he resumed to see what was going on. Dr. S. R. Hughes is one of the best surgeons and physicians in the State, and the white doctors of the hospital knew his face (from common class work in medical schools in the Eagst) but perhaps did not know he is colored. He arrived just as they were enjoying their explorations in this colored woman's neck and accused them: "If you don't stop digging into her neck, like that, it will just be a question as to the murderer her face, who man who the street. Then Dr. Hughes took charge of her, and she is living today, with only a scar or her throat." Speaking further of this instance, he follows says from his own knowledge of both races, there is no need of President Harding seeding white physicians or nurses to the Veterans Hospital in Tuskegee. "After a Negro soldier breaks down in the service of his country, he certainly does not want to be turned over to white doctors of Alabama and Georgia, as experimental material for the advancement of Southern Science, however much that may be needed. No man or woman who does not regard colored people as quite human, is fit to be doctor or nurse to colored people, in hospitals or out of them. "We have heard of white nurses shipping the faces of sick black patients for 'talking like that to a white woman,' and we have seen white doctors using the bodies of the colored patients as experiment stations to find out something which they find and find out in school, and which they find out in the service of white bodies. It is not much of an exaggeration to call some cases of surgery by these doctors on colored patients 'vivisection.'" THREE FOR LEGISLATURE BALTIMORE, MAY, 25, 1923 north as far as Maine giving concerts at various summer resorts. In this way, the singers expect not only to pay their own expenses, but to turn over a goodly sum for the building and endowment fund of the city. The round trip last year of the singers, Mr. Hernandez said, cost $1,000 in carfare. This year they invested in a $500 "lizzie" and so far have travelled more cheaply and conveniently. Mr. Hernandez said that the "lizzie" gave them no trouble on the first 1,000 miles of their journey. Outside of Washington, he said, the couple broke, but they got a new one for a few dollars and continued their trip. New Penal System Puts Opportunities in Way of All Inmates Who Desire To Learn "Negro" Who Turned Out To Be A White Man Teaches Colored Pals "I am going to my class in English, thank you." This and similar expressions may be heard nearly any evening in the Maryland Penitentiary. Thanks to the new penal system which has been adopted by Warden Sweezy the best instincts and possibilities in the men and women committed to this institution are being conserved. "This modern system, while imposing strict discipline, gives every man and woman a chance to rehabilitate themselves and prepare to make th most out of life when they serve their time. An example of the advantage that some of the colored men are taking of the opportunities offered for self-improvement is their attendance of the English class being conducted by one of the inmates. The story of the man who conducts the class is as interesting as the fact that these men are thus improving themselves, for he came into th institution as a colored man and turned out to be in fact white. Our years ago two men were convicted of a crime and sent to the Penitentiary. Both of them identified themselves with the colored race and were entered as Negroes. Shortly afterwards it was found that one of them was a white man who "had gone over into the colored race." Became Colored According to his own story he had gone over to the colored race because he had become disgusted with the white race and "never man" to be known as a white man." This man, John McCoy, is now conducting a class in English-composed of his colored pals.

TELLS HOW SHE WON HER TITLE Mrs. Eugene Gray Receives "Afro" Reporter Into a "Championship" Kitchen Too GIVES BISCUIT RECIPE Southerners, She Says, Use More Grease In Cooking Than Northerners Mrs. Eugene Gray who was selected as the champion cake baker of Baltimore last week in a contest conducted by the AFRO-AMERICAN and the Royal Baking Powder Company is highly pleased by the honors bestowed upon her. An AFRO reporter who interviewed her at her home, 2122 Druid Hill avenue, listened through a number of recipes, for various masterpieces of culinary art, with watering mouth. The reporter was led by the tall stout hostess to a kitchen on the ground floor and looked around a large room spick and span and reminiscent of a clean sweet-smelling bake shop. Besides a coal and gas range, the latter new, the room held a work table and a few tables. "There were works with disorder there," Mrs. Gray said she used the gas oven to bake the prize cake. Mrs. Gray was asked how it felt to be known as a champion cake baker, to which she answered: "It came as a surprise to me and I cannot express my feeling. But I greatly appreciate the fact that my cake took the prize problem given by Mrs. Anna L. Boyd and Mrs. Alice Patton Allen at the demonstration conducted at the Y. M. C. A, some-time ago and found it satisfactory. I love to cook and always try anything new that I may hear of. "In baking the prize cake, I did not look at it from the time I put it in the oven until it was ready to come out." It takes a real cook to do that. As your cooking ever praised in any way before?" she was asked. "Well not exactly praised, but I have always been spoken of as a good cook and baker. I have traveled through the North and could always go back anywhere I ever cooked. I have been cooking thanooking in the South. You know there is a difference. Southerners like a lot of grease. Here is one of Mrs. Gray's biscuit recipes: 1 quart of flour, 3 teaspoons of Royal Baking Powder, 1 teaspoon of salt, 1-4 teaspoon sugar and 1½ tablespoons of bird. All dry ingredients must be sifted. Then add milk to make soft paste, Roll out and cut. Bake in moderate oven fifteen or twenty minutes. Now any one who had the good fortune to sample Mrs. Gray's prize cake can imagine what a treat these biscuits would be. Mrs. Gray is the wife of Eugene Waller Gray, well known chef at Carlsbad Curry. On her younger days, she herself was an expert cook. Good Mornin' Judge PAGE NINE Good Mo Social Equality Costs Mr. and Mrs. Townsend Ha Threw the Brick T Picks 815 "Berries".

It all happened this way: Pete Haselhorn, white, 519 Quist St, decided to invite his friend, Johns, over for a gay evening on May 13th. He also asked Miss Wilson to drop in and help with the refreshments, this is what he told the Magistrate. But here we begin with Miss Wilson's version of the affair. Mr. Johns was not satisfied to help himself to the good things prepared for the supper, but did a little firing. The officers who made the arrest of Johns added another chapter to the story by stating that there was something curious about the whole arrangements of that party, and didn't seem to be sorry at all that Mr. Johns lost his 315 berries. To outstanding the fight that Miss Wilson made, taking the $315 during "the little conversation," Magistrate Rihoeder held her for the action of the Grand Jury under $3,000 bail.

Of course I believe in working as hard as I can for the things I want, but after that, the rest is in the hands of destiny. Don't you believe that too?" One of the things newspaper reporters find out about interviewing the former councilman is that the interviewer will be asked questions too. The reporter admitted believing in predestination too, and asked Mr. Fitzgerald had he heard that the 14th Ward had suggested Warner T. McGuinn's name for the State Senate. **Would Work For McGuinn** "I have not" said Mr. Fitzgerald, "but it is a good thing, and I will take my coat off and go to work for him."

It was understood four years that the old hospital would be given over to the race. A campaign resulted in $25,000 being pledged to the purchase price. Colored and white physicians were to be on the staff and the board of directors would have representatives of both races thereon. Moving there meant an abandonment of the present Provident Hospital. The Division street property would provide better and larger facilities for the care of the colored sick and injured. It is hard for colored people to get accommodations at local hospitals manned by whites. In fact, there has been a disposition to bar the race out in many cases. There is no provision made for that class of patients who are fully able to meet every charge, they having to go in the wards where pumps and near-pumps are treated. The far-famed Johns Hopkins Hospital is the leading offender in this mode of operation. Then there are several institutions where no colored patients are taken, except for first-aid treatment in case of accident. There are some who think that where Dupont Street property is occupied that it will be still harder for colored people to get in local hospital. and the knowledge that as a public man he has contributed something to the public good. "By the way is the AFRO-AMERICAN for Armstrong for Governor?" I think the Attorney General is the type of man, who can command the support of all Republiques, coloured and white," Ackin Mr. Fitzgerald showed that he was not going to let the report-rings do all the questioning.

Preachers' Union held its monthly session in Union Bethel Church May 16th. The sessions were well attended. Sermons were preached by Rev. C. H. Green of Baltimore and Rev. R. S. Stansbury of Pocomoke. *Rev. J. C. Goens* read a paper on *The Preaching of Today and of the Years Ago.* A large number participated in the discussion. The officers for the evening year were elected. The Caroline County schools held their commencement exercises in John Wesley Church Friday evening. The audience was large. The graduating class numbered 39. A good program was rendered, including music by the Denton Orchestra, addresses were delivered by Revs. J. Hammond, M. V. Waters and Prof. H. C. Wright. Miss Elva Knox, the county supervisor awarded the certificates. Sarah Bailey who was on the sick list is visiting. Among the visitors in Denton last week were Mrs. M. Pinder of Concerville. Miss Beatrice Bailey Blindfield, N. J.; Mr. John Robinson, of Asbury Park; Mrs. Mary Banks, of Philadelphia; Mr. Howard Bailey and Mr. Collett Bailey of Washington, D. C.; Mrs. Tumm of Maryland. Africa. The most of the first statements of Bishop Vernon was directed against Bishop W. W. Eckett who was said to have had in his possession $5,000 appropriated several bills to be by missionary women for Africa. Neglected Missionaries Bishop Vernon's charges against Mr. Hawkins specifically are that he neglected to pay funds to the South African Missionary work and the Bishop quotes from a letter of Mr. Hawkins to him dated, September 4, 1922; which states in part: "my first duty is to plead guilty of neglect in that I have not written you since you have been away from me." Bishop Vernon's second statement also requests Mr. Hawkins to explain the loss of $17,000 in a bank failure and what has become of the interest on church funds held by him from year to year. Trips to Europe Comment upon what he calls unauthorized trips to Europe at the denomination's expense Bishop Vernon says, "some deceitfully remarked that Dr. Hankins a hotel for a trip to Europe was to the Ecumenical conference. He went over a second time to thank the propriator and see that the porter was properly tipped." Concerning Mr. Hawkins' alleged neglect of his office, Bishop Vernon said, "probably you need all your time to devote to your exiting duties as the head of a banking and trust company of which you are chief promoter and president. I can realize the duties of the treasurer, financial officer, and the denomination might now to you seem irksome, secondary and unimportant."

More than ever was he anxious to learn the identity of the man whose voice he had heard that night on the stairs. "What was Mrs. Bruce's connection with the mysterious stranger?" he asked himself. John recalled how emphatically she had assured him when he rushed into the room that night that her husband was not being compromised Was she speaking the truth? If he was not her lover, who was he then? Was Mrs. Bruce the associate of the thieves? For a lie, he appeared to have seemed impassioned yet he had heard of stranger things. Again, why had she refrained from telling him her story Philip turned—the light of victory in his eyes. So John had decided to change his mind. John advanced to meet him. In his extended hand he held a pair of gloves. "You're forgetting these old," he said kindly. The following evening John told Lucille of his refusal of the money. "It was a hard fight," he said. "When I thought of all the things I could do with that five thousand dollars it made me feel very bad." Lucille threw her arms around him and kissed him again and again. "I am so proud of you," she said rapturously. "I am glad you didn't accept my hard money." "And it makes me very happy to hear you say so, dear," he said kissing her tenderly. "I thought her feelings," he said. "I could have gotten for you, but I know that you wouldn't have accepted them if you knew the price I had paid." "It's very hard, dear," she replied, but I feel sure that it will come back in some way. And Philip Breckingridge for one will respect you more than ever." "I care little for what he or any one else thinks about what I have done—except you, dear. I felt I won your approval. That is satisfaction enough for me." "Now it's up to you, more than ever to win, and Lucie playful." "I'll win it, never fear, dearest, he murmured. John had remarked that of late after she had volunteered to do so. He reflected that she had had abundant opportunity to do so. He recalled how pathetically she had begged him to help her. What was the nature of the help she had expected? Tom with curiosity and pity for her, John had started to broach the subject of it. He had scrawl several sheets on but each occasion he had decided to let the matter drift. The day of the contest for the Staten Prize approached. It was to be the first Monday in June. The Saturday preceding the examination John was at work cleaning the windows of the Bruce home, when the doorbell rang. Answering the bell, John saw a messenger with a package. "I've been told to deliver (this to) Prof. Bruce, explained him. I took it over to the university but found only the gantiers and the scrub, women there. They told me Prof. Bruce would take it. Sign here." "What's it?" demanded John, before signing. He took the package, and as he read it his eyes bulged with amusement. Returning it quickly to the boy, he said nervously. "I had better call Prof. Bruce "I had better call Prof. Bruce himself." "All right, I will take it." decided Prof. Bruce, after the boy's explanation. After studying the sealed package critically for a few moments, Prof. Bruce said jokingly, as he thrust it under John's nose, "You know what's MADAM EMMA PERRY WALLACE Poro Beauty Parlor Residence, Maddison 7744-W Office, St. Paul 4488 ROY S.

"The best part of the fun would be gone then," said John lightly. "Kisses, in going to win, anyway." Prof. Ernie tossed the package lightly on his desk among some other papers. John picked up his window-detectors and returned to his job. Half an hour later he was finished and returned to his room at the Stewarts, a few doors away. CHAPTER XVII. Philip Brecknerridge with the Bruces that evening. He was a rather frequent visitor there. After dinner he and Prof. Bruce went into the library, along to the desk, Prof. Bruce took a box of cigars and passed it to Philip. Sethter and a matron and Prof. Bruce went to get some. Philip seated himself in the savel chair at the desk, swinging himself lazily, presently so swinging inward. His eyes rested on the sealed package nesting in its best of oil manuscript. He took the package. "The examination questions?" he gazed, gazing at it spelled. He proacted it the brown package, regarding it perceptibly. "If my eyes were only X-rays," he sighed. Hearing approaching footsteps, he dropped at quietly and swing his enarmoniously around. Lighting their cigars, the two men proceeded and control for some time until Prof. Bruce looked at his watch and said: "Mrs. Bruce and I are going to the pictures tonight to see Harold Lloyd, won't you come along with us?" "I'll be glad to, but Monday is the big day, you know." "An, I forgot." "I'm going home to pitch in," said Philip, rising. "Wait for us and well drop you there." Mrs. Bruce entered, Prof. Bruce went to the garage in the rear for his car, leaving Mrs. Bruce and Philip. Soon after the two left the house together. The car was walking, Philip helped Mrs. Bruce in. The car went in the direction of the town. "Take care of getting stale," warned Prof. Bruce, as Philip insisted on alighting when they reached his Shortly after they had reached the theatre, Mrs. Bruce complained of a bad headache. Prof. Bruce wished to take her home at once, but she insisted on their seeing the Lloyd comedy first, was not until until that they returned home. At the curb Prof. Bruce helped Mrs. Bruce to alight and offered to assist her inside. She insisted on going in alone, as she said she had not much better. Prof. Bruce started for the garage. As he was about to back the car into the little wooden building from the wheel, he had heard a shot, followed by a scream. The sounds had come from the house! Springing from the machine, he dashed for the kitchen door. It was locked. He rattled it frantically, then raced for the front door. Some one was running up the front steps ahead of him. Overtaking the figure, he organized a neighbor, Herbert Melcahn. "Did you hear that?" demanded Prof. Bruce, wildly. Both men bounded up the steps. Prof. Bruce whipped out his key, but the door was ajar. As he entered a dark figure spring suddenly out the library and made a wild dash for the door, almost knocking him over. "Catch him! " Cater him! He has shot Mrs. Bruce, he heard the voice of a man in a suit. John darted through the door, white Prof. Bruce and his McIntosh rushed into the library. There, outstretched on the floor, lay Mrs. Bruce. On her white shirtwist was a large, red spot, omnibus broad- Hair Culture and Facial Massage We specialize on short and stubborn hair.

Her heart had ceased to beat. He threw himself on the lifeless body in a paroxysm of grief. McLean telephoned for the police. Police officers were on the spot. They examined the dead woman carefully. The lieutenant took something from between her fingers. He held it significantly up to the light, then carefully placed it between the leaves of his notebook. "Have you any idea who could have done this?" he asked Prof. Bruce. "None whatever," replied the grief-stricken husband. Both he and Daniels began to stammer out the incident that had taken place at the door. "One at a time," said the lieutenant, who still had added, indicating the professor. "Try to shake yourself to gather. We want to get the one that did this." Prof. Bruce related the incident of Johns' dash through the door. "He's a colored man, isn't he?" demanded the lieutenant. Prof. Bruce nodded. "I thought so," said the officer, significantly. A few more hurried questions about John, and the chief dispatched three detectives after him. "Come here!" he cried excitedly to the officer. The examination questions had been broken into. The seal had been shredded off, and the string carefully unhoused, a small bit of seal, inside, weeping heart. Prof. Prince told weakly of the KNOXIT PROPHYLACTIC Unnatural and mucous discharges can be avoided by destroying the germs of infection diseases. $1.10 at all druggists MRS.

"Did he know that these papers were here?" "Yes, he was present when I received them from the boy this afternoon." "Pretty shrewd," mused the officer about, as he regarded the little pile of papers lying on the brown paper.

I have found as my answer that six dozen dozen is the greater be- cause six dozen dozen equals 6 x 12 x 12, which equals 816, and half a dozen dozen equals 12 x 12 x 12, which equals 192. Since 192 is greater than 72, six dozen dozen must be the greatest. CAN YOU DO THIS TRICK? Transform the six straight lines down into three without cutting out or erasing any of the lines.

Hammond, Denton Md —And Jim (For the girls to read) My mother's favorite slogan to her courting daughters was, "Those before you love, for love is blind and can see no fruits." Another one was, "Never keep company with one who is not good enough for you to marry, then if love comes all will be well." At the age of 18 I was permitted to have my first heart. He was from the best family in the community. But Jim was show of speech, never saying the pretty pathways girls like to walk on, and he was so steadily for a year. I gave him serious thoughts, for there had arisen on my horizon the ideal of all my gyrish dreams of a "hero." But also! he did not meet mother's approval. Chayton also lived in our community, and while his family was busy with work, he wished to join as juniors, yet he was always so much better dressed and drew the finest team and buggy in the country. All the girls were wild about him, and when he turned his attention to me above them all my heart stalled with pride, yet aching because I was forbidden to go with him. I kept going with Jim to please mother, but when we got to the party or dance Chayton would be waiting to claim me for the most of the day.

Terrrible was the scene when I gave Chayton my answer. He swore he would always love me, and that he would never marry another. It was with a heavy heart that I took the way that led me to a man I did not love "until death do us part." About a year after we were married Jim was injured in an accident and the doctor said he could not live. In those agonizing hours when I knelt by his bedside, refusing food or rest, expecting each breath to be his last, I realized I loved my husband. I loved my husband my fondest imaginary dreams.

Clear the pores of their waste. Help them to work. Restore them to healthy activity. A Gift of Nature Nature in her wisdom has a provided a very sure remedy clogged pores.

G. . . 1 3 .250 By applying the pledge to the old apple when such application meant rins, the Black Sox took both long ends of a twinkl clash from the Ascension A.-C. of Philadelphia last 5-1 and 4-3. Doc. Sykes occupied the dishpan for the Sox with Rojo behind the plate. The rangy expert of the salivated pellet was feeling "right" and hurled the best game he has tossed this season, holding the losers to four scattered safeties, walked one and fanned ten. ERROR LOSES SHUTOUT For the first four innings Sykes yielded only one hit and this of the serrated variety with a row of goose eggs staring the visitors in the face. In the fifth, however, an error by Wilson, who had been shifted to short, finally resulted in one run for the Philadelphiaists, which precluded to be the only match he kept the Doctor out of his kaiserine performance of the season. He fell off in this inning by letting three pass across the plate without his interference. Thompson followed with a grounder to Wilson, which the latter fumbled. Baylis taking second, Thompson went to third on Paget's sacrifice and scored when Clarke singled to left. Plews was also on a good game, and it was only by their ability to hit the ball were needed that gave the victory. The Sox doubled in the third when Hall doubled to center with Britton and Angges on, both the latter scoring. An error by Thompson was responsible for Britton's being on the path. The Sox scored two more in sixth and one in the eighth, which gave the Sox a 1-0 lead. The Sox being order was shifted, Britton leading off, with off, Wilson, Hall, C. Smith, Raggs, W. Smith, and Miller following in the order named. Britton played first base and Wilson was shifted to short. **BROWN HURLS NIGHTCAP** The nightcap, which was called at the end of the sixth inning on account of rain, turned out to be more interesting game than the more interesting game at the southpaw pitch, was sent to the hill for the Sox, Rojo receiving, to oppose Prince and Algie as the Ascension battery. Brown as the result of nervousness was wild during the first two innings and his failure to score occurred three runs and an overtime frame, which put the visitors in the lead, 3-1. The locals having countered in their half of the first. The thoughtless among the fans who expect a pitched to hurt shutout ball whether he is a newcomer or a seasoned veteran with the team, began yelling for Miller to take him out. But their pleas went unheeded, and Brown justified the wickedness by a fusal by my mind, insisting in injury defeat into victory. The result of his tightening up after the second innning, and the timely clout of Mitchell, who had his war club against the horseride for three bases, all of which were leaded when he was sent in to pinch hit for Miller in the third. Brown made a fine impression for his first time out, not only in his burling, but also in his position. His injury, he ran the third base stands to back Raggs' throw to Miller, throwing out Plew at the plate when the third baseman missed the throw. During the six innings, he yielded only five hits, walker three and fanned three against Prince, who yielded five hits, walker seven and fanned seven against Prince.

Unless Taylor's team, which is known as the Potomacs, cracks they will, make the League teams sit up and take notice. The Potomacs started off the season, taking the series from the Atlantic City Bacharachs, winning the final game in seven innings, 3-2, with Ross pitching. Then last week the Black Sox came over from Baltimore and the best the Sox could do was an even break. Finally the league closed their home stay by taking two games from the Richmond Giants and tying one, 4-4, 7-4, and 7-3. In all these games the hitting of Lewis and the fielding of Woods featured.

Says Kearns, Wills and Dempsey will get together on Labor Day either in New York or New Jersey, and the fight will draw the largest gate of any to be staged in the country this year. All that Kearns says about the big gate is that, but fans wonder who Dempsey really mean business or is he talking then his hat. Just a little while ago Kearns, was talking about his champion Dempsey winning the winner of the Willard-Birn-patch, but when Firpo seemed inclined not to let Dempsey hog the gate receipts of the proposed man Kearns' interest fell off exceedingly. Kearns winters instead of Firpo or Willard on Labor Day may be designed to bring the unruly Firpo back into line. On the other hand, it may just be pure bull. In any case the writer will believe Kearns when he sees Dempsey and Wills signatures to a contract, and not before. GODFREY IS SPARRING PARTNER George Godfrey, the 220-pound black heavyweight who Jack Johns covered, is in Dempsey's camp at Great Falls, Montana, helping put Dempsey into shape for his Fourth of July fight with Gibbons. Gibbons has no call to be matched with Dempsey for this bout, especially since he lost a 15-round bout to Harry Greb last year. Godfrey heined train Floyd Johnson for the beating he got from Luis Firpo at the Milk Fund Show two weeks ago. Godfrey gave it that Godfrey can so many wallpops in exhibition bouts that he discouraged Floyd rather than posted him on the fine points of the Eddie Mack, who looked over the boys in training camp, had this to say: "Whoever picked out George Godfrey or Johnson upon praise or because of previous error." Godfrey is a husty sort of a miller weighs 220 or thereabouts, and is as good a gymnasium performer as I have ever looked at. He may or may not make a name for himself in the rine—you know there is it, but beating a boxer in the gym and getting the better of him when the public is looking on—but he surely can go in the camp. The theory was that Godfrey could ask God for a lot about the boxing game, but in my opinion the beatings the latter has been taking from his colored pardner are doing far more damage than good in that they tend to discourage Johnson rather than in the finer quality of dinggerg. If doesn't do any boxer any boxer, or does any boxer any second bag, and Johnson is No. I every day in the camp.

On that Buena Vista team was Neal Hoss, now an auto-mechanic, he must play a game since, but he stopped in the Arro office to recall the days when he and the winter test to think baseball the king of sports. Neal thinks so just, he goes to see the Black Sox play every Sunday.

Faddy Mullins says Dempsey and Wills are virtually matched to night in New deesey Labor Days, and that only the contracts remain to be signed. Well, that is enough remains, isn't it? Lincoln University host the University of Chicago last week in a kooz back. David Hibbard won the good jump, intrigue race, and kept in the relay. Contact expect tumbles to win the whole meet. Tiger Flowers, the coming Southern minicampweight, is reported to have turned down seven good ones of minicamps and signed up for the next one. Tiger must have that he was getting matched, but in this case he won it directly or indirectly. HILLDALE GETS FIRST TRIMMING OF SEASON Hilibald, May 14—The Hilliard team members of the Eastern League, met their first defeat of the season before last Saturday when Oscar, of the Cincinnati Stars, blanked the Darbettes 3-0. Oscar had his spitball under such contempt that the heavy safety of Bohlen countered with only five safeties, one of which was of the scrappy variety, he was given almost air-tight support, Baro and Ciancon being the bright stars. The former did his best piece of work in the sixth when, with two out and two on he caught Thomas highly just as it was about to drop over the bleachers' wall, covered in the mish of bydling Warbills but later. Who was, on the mound for Hilibald, also pitched good ball, but was the victim of the "breaks" Hilibald's two errors and four of the outlays he allowed being banched to the fourth inning, which netted the Island as their three tallies.

Off Boardley's Mark of Last Week for 880-Yard Run By winning ten firsts, four seconds and five third places. School 106 proved the king-pin of the second district public schools' track and field meet at Druid Hill Park last Friday scoring 116 School 113 was second with 51. 109 22, and Fairfield School 20. These were the only four schools that competed, but they each sent a good-sized contingent of repre- sentatives which made the meet a much more successful one than the First District meet held the pre- vious week. School 106 also won the boys and girls' dodge ball con- tests, but in the boys event, they played a man over weight and the victory was then awarded to Fair- field. The full schedule of events in all classes was run off and the contestants generally made some very good marks. One of the outstanding performers was Randopin of School 113 who ran the 50-yard run in 2 min. 56 sec, thereby chipping 30 seconds out the mark made by Boardley of Mt. Washington school last week for the same distance. Another good performance which beat the mark of the performer at the First District meet was the baseball throw in the 300-pound class of Murray of 100 who heaved the horseside 127 feet against 179 feet made by D. Tates or 191 in the previous meet. The Third District meet will be held next Friday, and this is expected to prove the most warmly contested meet of the three. The City-Wide meet will be held in the City-Wide School District shortly, and in view of the good marks which the entropyonic Wests, Gourdins and Hounds are making its is certainly to prove the most closely contested annual public school meet ever pulled out. 90 Vard Sdn Bhd, 100 Sdn, Boarding, 100 Sdn, Bldg, 100 Sdn, time, 4:15.

Fans "Egg" Johnson Havana, May 21.—Jack Johnson, former heavyweight champion of the world, and Jack Thompson, white, the Boston heavyweight, boxed twelve rounds here last night without a decision. The Havana Boxing Commission fined each boxer $500 for stallings. In the tenth round Villamil, the referee, left the ring and the promoter had to take over his duties until the bout was ended. Johnson and Thompson mixed it for six rounds, but in the seventh crowd the crowd threw out the tactics and threw eggs and fruit into the ring. HOLY SCARABS. WHAT DID I DRINK THAT HOOCH FOR?

West also ran second in the 410-yard run, but was disqualified for running out of his lane in the homestretch. He will be a factor in the intercollegiate held this week. West made John Hopkins University of Baltimore, which won the meet, disregard the color line. Hopkins would not permit a colored man to enter the university to study, much less engage in athletics. The university has also refused contests with schools which had colored athletes as members of the competing teams. The Blue Sox defeated the Johnsville nine at Westminster, May 14, 13-1 and the Union Bridge team "white" 17-2 on May 26. Nervousness is an enemy to health because it prevents rest, relaxation and sound sleep and it is equally guilty of preventing concentration. Nervousness is caused by irritating pressure on spinal nerves, resulting from a displacement of spines from a displacement of spines on their true alignment. The correction of this delicate alignment lies partly in the hands of the Chiropractor.

Everybody out and be a Booster for Baltimore's Best Colored Baseball Team. . . . . . New York, May 20 (National Star News Service)—A private feud between Harry Wills and Jack Johnson was unfolded last week in a virtual challenge from Harry Wills to Jack Johnson to meet him behind closed doors with only a referee and seconds present to settle their little differences. Jack has been trying to get a bout with Harry for sometime, but the latter has always claimed he would gain nothing from fighting a discredited former champion and that he wants to meet present, not ex-champions. Becoming a bout between himself and Jack Johnson, former heavy-weight champion of the world, which was abandoned because he says Johnson asked for too much money, Harry Wills Monday declared that the only condition under which he would meet Johnson would be for a sit out behind closed doors. The F.W. Woolworth, according to Wills, offered Jack Johnson and himself $77,000 each for a bout at McMurdo when Johnson was freed from prison. The former champion held out, according to Wills, for $125,000 and the Woolworth interests forgot the matter. "Now that Johnson sees that he cannot draw such a large purse," Wills says, "I am not going to permit him to get one on the strength of a bout with me. If he thinks he can but me from 54 cents to $10,000 and fight me behind closed doors with a police and seconds. Although Wills did not fight the WORKINGMEN!! We sell you pants from $2 up.

He declares that none of the men on the card would meet him. Unqualified denial of the statement published by Damon Rumpen in the American yesterday morning, in which it was asserted that Wills had rejected a $10,000 cash offer to night George Godfrey at the Coliseum, the coliseum contender last night. Wills said that he had not been made any offer of any kind and that the statement that he was offered $10,000 to meet Godfrey was without foundation in fact.

A case in point is the insistent propaganda coming from the South and West designed to spur Federal authorities to their duty of upholding the majesty of the law in enforcing the eighteenth amendment to the Constitution. One of the most outspoken proponents of this policy of Federal responsibility, strangely enough, is Representative William D. Upshaw of Georgia, the very State that has so flagrantly and openly made a scrap of paper out of two of the most fundamentally American amendments. These are the 14th and 15th, which bestowed citizenship upon the American Negro. Even if the prohibition amendment does not succeed in banishing the demon rum from this land of democracy and land of the free, it may yet serve a good purpose in awakening a national sense of shame for the manner in which we have allowed sections of the country to deserate and annul some of our most vital laws. By all means let the South have her wish in the strict enforcement of the 18th Amendment. ALSO THE FOURTEENTH AND FIFTEENTH AMENDMENTS. The Season or Youth.

With their idealism, their training and sense of fair play, this group will mean much to the struggling masses. While they will find plenty to do awaiting them they will not find attainment as easy as pictured behind the cloistered college walls. They will often be up against practical struggles that will call out the best that is in them. They will find that elder men and women do not always play the game fairly, that they sometime strike below the belt. As a racial group they will also find many opportunities open to other groups completely closed to them and even within their own group they may not find the far-sightedness which some races use in preparing openings for the coming men and women. But for every closed avenue they will find a chance to CREATE a dozen opportunities to prove their mettle. There is a place for ten times the number of worth while young men and women leaving our schools this year. The fact that the Negro youth must struggle a little harder for success and achievement may not be such a misfortune after all. The ordinary cat and lion came from the same general family, but the lion is stronger only because of its harder struggle for existence in the jungle life. We can well afford to turn our attention to the interests of our youth as they pour from the educational institutions, for in them rest the hope and destiny of the Clean Up. The EDITORIAL PAGE of THE AFRO-AMERICAN Says: "If Skules Kin Do Without' A Principal Five Months, What Good Is Principals?" Old Timer was in the midst of the throng watching the inauguration Tuesday of Howard W. Jackson as Mayor when he spied the reporter. JACKSON "Say, boy, I am happier today than I've ever been in my life," he said gleefully. "I believe a new day is comin' for us all. I saw Roy Bond and Stewart Davis watchin' the courts now. Then saw Jim White, Trunky Arthur, Arthur Broenin' go out of offs, I know the bill for some pumpkins round Bragg, Henry Arnold, Charley Tibbs, Charley Wesley and them yuther stalwarts lookin' on sort of approvir' like. Revenn Allen looked like he wanted to pray, but Howard Jackson is a Mefodis' and had his own preacher up on that stand." Old Mrs. Old Timer come up with you?" the reporter asked. "No, I had to take her out, to Dor Hayes' and get her some of that nice water, and then let her go shopin'. I've had to humor her lots since Broenin' lost. "What part are you goin' to take in the United Colored Democracy organized last week?" asked the reporter. "I'm goin' to let you young folks see that, ane havein' much longer to live myself. But I'll give you any advice I can." "What about things generally?" queried the reporter. "Well, I see that Doe West, school superintendent is all but up when he is axed why he don't print them skule principals to jobs what is been vacant five months, and why he don't sumthin' else besides talk about this new elementary skule. "Doe West ain't got a slick haird for nothin'. He is a slick guy. He is keepin' on spendin' them skule loans for 14 white skules, and almost he is gwine to say to colleagues, 'Sorry but we is spent all the money and there isn't more left for you all.'" "Euthermo, Dore West, forgits that we taxpayers are buyin' his bread and butter, and that we is put up the money he is spendin' the money. When a bird is holdin' in hand, your money, it ain't no time to low him to get mad with you. "Sides," said O. T. as he shambled off to greet the new mayor, a skule kin do without a principal five months, what the hook is the good of a principal anyhow?" FORUM This column is open to readers.

Richmond Market Exhibit Said To Have Been An Excellent Exposition of A great mass of exhibits of hand-work and other material lay in state at the Richmond Market Armory last week. No small amount of work was entailed in first convincing some of these projects, and secondly in assembling them. The good teachers who worked so hard and so well deserve umlong praise. Work from the manual training sources, the sewing centers and from several other sources was especially creditable, as there was evidence of "knowledge of the subject-matter of the construction of the project. For, be it remembered, such an exhibit is subject to close public scrutiny. But whose exhibit was it? Teachers' or pupils'? Did it represent work actually occurred? OK, DONE by them, or BULL? Flue Teachers' Exhibit To say that it was a fine teachers' exhibit is but to voice the truth. They did their best, and actually made most of the exhibits with their own hands. About half of the projects were recognized as the expressly designed within the curriculum; others were foreign. Many of the projects were in no way connected with work done in the grades, and so somewhat deciving to the parents. They were even of doubtful education, high-toned, others merely lent momentary inspiration to pupils to "make one like this." Other of the exhibits, well constructed by the teachers in person, were projects too difficult for the respective grades, and evidently intended as projects to create pupils of the Forces Mann School of Columbia University. One exhibit was obtained direct from a wool manufacturing company, as set up by them. A miniature theatre, the work of a carpenter, bought and paid for, merely because the teacher to whom it was assigned had neither technical knowledge nor the time to construct it, was also in evidence. A gentleman of some learning mistook a model of Bethel Church for that of Grace. Another similar exhibit, including clay models of Howard University, Lincoln, Fisk, Tuskegee Institute Training School, Etc., was never begun, because it couldn't be done. These projects require technical facility which was finally found in grade pupils or teachers. But for the high calibre of a few of the exhibits, the affair might have been mistaken for a show. Tuskegee and the South are given over primarily to this manual or hand work, so there are no jobs they make.

NEW JERSEY DELAWARE the Negroes hope of a "liberal education." Too many children of color only remain in school seven or eight years, and need all of that time for the "fundamentals," if they are to survive in the march toward the nation. Men of color will always retain labor positions requiring brawn, for the inherit that. Now, a big centrally located plant teaching electricity, motors, manual arts, domestic science, domestic art, with the purpose of teaching the lessons—well, this would not be so bad—perilizer. THE RHYMING ROISTERER "STANDING STILL" The story has been often told, and surely always will, how Joshua with warriors hold assembled on a hill, over Gibbon, a mighty town, home of the Amorites, who had whipped the men for a crowd in a hundred bloody fights. How Joshua unsheathed his sword when the scrappers came in sight, and beat five kings clear off the board and put their hosts to flight. When he saw the sun was going down, with the Philistines on the run, he ordered it to stifle around and his work became Book, rich in detail and thrill, how the sun from Josh its orders took and then and there stood still. Though ages long have passed since then, pure plagiaristic self is history now of modern men, as it repeats itself. Pickens pulls his trusty pen and Miller his sword, and his deed his deed and punch him in the eye. The persiage and verbiage of these two learned deans are used to vent the selfish rage by vitriolic means. The suffering race is closing shop, disgusted by the sight, and whiffs the dope by the silly slop of another foot. These "deans" should know we are the goats—perhaps some day they will—while they're flying at each other's throats, the race is standing still. In fighting out their personal feud, with all their might and main, not only do they fight, but they give the race a TAIN.

The support while stream to these institutions marks the change in philanthropy brought help to the Negro wishing to help himself. This has gone on now for centuries. The time of self-help has come.

He will never come, let us hope, when philanthropy need rather than of race. The most interesting race news item which fell under my notice during the past week was the item that an ex-slave had willed his $150,000 estate to the Tuskegee Institute. This is the largest legacy yet left by a colored man to any educational institution. The effort of the race towards self-help in support of their institutions of learning is most commendable and encouraging. Our schools and colleges were inaugurated by white philanthropy stimulated by the humanitarian sentiment of the anti-slavery struggle and the outcome of the Civil War. The support which has flowed in a continual stream to these institutions marks the climax of altruistic giving. sure giving. He also philanthropy brought help to the Negro when he was Not able to help himself. This has gone on now for well-nigh two generations. The time of self-help has come. The Negro is not now fully able to support his own higher institutions of learning; but his ability as well as his inclination in this direction is increasing in an encouraging degree. direction is increasing in an anthropogenic way. The time will never come, let us hope, when philanthropy will operate in race tight compartments. True philanthropy operates on the basis of need rather than of race.

Our higher institutions may be divided into three distinct classes so far as the basis of support is concerned. In the first place we have the schools planted and supported by Northern philanthropy, such as Fisk University, Lincoln University and Atlanta University. In the second place we have the schools maintained by the state. In this class may be placed Howard University, and the various schools and colleges in the various states under public support and control. These are in no proper sense, charitable or elemenary institutions. They are public schools which the state maintains and supports as a duty. In the third place, we have a class of schools like Wilberforce University, Morris Brown College, the Virginia Theological Seminary and College resting wholly upon the foundation of Negro foundation and support. This class of schools invite special attention, as showing the clearest indication of the purpose of the race to educate itself. Wilberforce University has well under way a $400,000 building which is undoubtedly the most ambitious and costly college structure anywhere within our educational field. The Virginia Theological Seminary and College has built up a foundation of $400,000 valuation within the past fifteen years. We hear of Allen University erecting a hundred thousand dollar building, and so throughout the list. The great philanthropic foundations are beginning to take notice. Only the people who show the disposition to help themselves are worthy of athletic help.

It might truly be said that not specific thing the Sanhedrin accomplish a co-operative mind and a unison of will. Lester A. Walton, in the last issue of the New York Age, calls attention to the fact that the Negro race had 21 Congressmen and two Senators, from 1870 to 1901. The present generation can hardly believe the statement. The more intelligent and thrifty the race becomes, the less political power it exerts. Ten million Negroes, seventy-five per cent literate, one hundred per cent loyal, property holding and patriotic, have no say in the national legislative council which formulates the laws by which we are governed. The parallel does not exist on the face of the civilized globe. The fault is in ourselves rather than in our stars. How long will we labor under the stigma of this reproach? Let Chicago, New York and Philadelphia render answer. The Academy of Sciences I attended the Academy of Political and Social Science in Philadelphia last week. This is perhaps the leading organization of scholars and thinkers who are devoted to the study of political and social questions. The program was devoted to the consideration of "America's Relation to the European Situation." Specialists and experts covered the several phases of the subject in a most interesting and informing way. I was in attendance as a representative of Howard University, and was the only Afro-American in regular relation to the session. On previous occasions I have taken an assigned part in the program. As I sat through the sessions, my mind could not refrain from indulgence in the reflection that the American Negro as such shows very little vital interest in the most active movement in the world to-day. We are so absorbed in our own special problems that there is little surplus energy or interest in the larger problems of the world. No one with the toothache concerns himself very much about the salvation of mankind. And yet we must cultivate the world mind. Our own problems so engrossing to us form but a small fraction of the universal problem of social adjustment in which they are involved, and of which they form a part. How the Sanhedrin Will Help I have received a number of letters suggesting that the Negro Sanhedrin might interfere with existing organizations which are already in the field. This conception is wholly erroneous. There are already too many overlapping organizations interfering with rather than supplementing the efficiency the one of the other. Many of these grow out of personal pride and jealousy. Whenever a disappointed leader finds himself without function, he says to himself... "Go to, I will found a new organization." The purpose of the Sanhedrin is to get an understanding among them all, and if possible to strengthen the hand of them all. What the Negro needs is the will to co-operate and some efficient plan of co-operation. More than one distinguished speaker at the recent meeting of the Academy of Political and Social Science declared that it made little or no difference what the United States did by way of European rehabilitation, the principal thing is the willingness to help. By parity of reasoning, it might truly be said that it boots little what specific thing the Sanhedrin accomplishes, provided it fosters a co-operative mind and a unison of will.
