Staff Correspondent
Chicago, June 14—To the reporters of the Chicago daily newspapers Governor Al Smith of New York made the statement, when he lighted from the 20th Century limited at the Lassell Street Station this morning, "I am not a candidate for President."
To this writer in an exclusive interview in his suite in the internationally famous Blackstone Hotel where Theodore Roosevelt and Baker T. Wasserman direct together, Theodore Smith said, "No one can seek the high office of president of the United States, the sold clearly from the people."
Your correspondent represents the largest colored publication in this country said, "Governor Smith no man in recent years exonerated colonel Roosevelt has stood up for people above all wars of the people, above all war, political expellence, and dared to defend the personal liberty of every American
"The people bail you as their honour and I feel honored to make your hand, sir, and to add my heart personal congratulations. The signing of the repeal of the Multon-Gage State prohibition enforcement act by you in New York last week meant that the man of the call, whom the call to step up higher, the people want such a man as President of the United States." I continued, "Governor Smith, if the people so honored you, what would be your official attitude toward the colored people? Would you back down like Woodrow Wilson did and President Barding on seminal courtesy to the South?" Governor Smith answered emphatically more so than I can here for he is another fellow I could be in back down. I the Constitution, "that every man is created free and equal," my good is an open book—when I was elected years ago, sheriff of New York City my first deputy was a colored man, my best friend is a Christian, all men hold office under my present administration of the Governor's office of New York State and in the last election in all my other appeals to the voters I sourced the solid man of the call from a Ku Klux Klan and reared—the Kit Klus Klan does not run the State of New York."
It is too early to see the political fame definitely but Governor Al Smith, a Catholic, the foe of the in Kux Klan, the champion of personal liberty for the blacks, for which he the black man as well as the white man, a man of the people and a 160 per cent American will be hard to bear on any ticket. The Governor just stopped in Chicago on his way to French Lick Springs for a much needed

"Swamp" and Fields Purchased for $3 Per Lot Sold to Negroes for $500 Apiece
LOTS ALMOST WORTHLESS
Afro Reporter Tells How Purchasers Are Being "Victimized"
Hearing that a local realty company but purchased 10 acres of farmlands outside Baltimore for $2,500, divided it into building lots, and was selling them to colored people at $500 each, the Afro sent Wm. N. Jones to investigate.
His report given below is the first authentic account of how a first business within the law and still the business that ought to bind its members in the penitentiary.
The Real Estate Board will be asked to investigate the operations of this company.
DY WM. N. JONES
How a really company purchased lots at $3 each and allowed unsuspecting colored people to "win" them at $9 per win and buy others at from $250 to $500 is the story of one of the biggest money grabs ever pulled off in this section.
About one year and a half ago the Abdulin Realty and Home Builders a firm said to be composed of a group of smooth New Yorkers, purchased from Mr. H. Jones, a white farmer living between Thompson and Clark Stations on the W. B. & A. Railroad a tract of about 40 acres of land to exploit as a settlement for colored people. For those hats they received a contract of sale at $60 per acre. Immediately they divided the property into 20 food lots (purchase price about $3 per lot).
According to the Jones family this tract of land was bought on time payments. The company perfecting the transportation through Atty. Brunner, of this city. Then followed one of the most daring and deceptive sales schemes ever tried outside of the race track or hall of chance.
HAS CATCHY SELLING SCHEME
Playing on the natural susceptibility of the average human being to get something for nothing, a corps of agents began combing the colored communities and distributing changes by which they allowed gulls people to "win" some of their pay "free-only" and pay $90 for the debt and other minor expenses. The system used was to have a runner visit the home of the prospect and have them sign up in the contest. A short while later, an agent of the company would appear at this home and inform the parties that they had "won." "Now," said the agent, "all you have to do now is to pay $69 to cover cost of making out this deed to you." But all that was not all. The agent always took the chance to sell the prospect another lot at from $250 to $500 on time payments while he had them under the spell of winning the lot free. This generally worked. Some idea of how this worked put in profit to this company may be judged from one transaction. Mrs. Artie Revise still lives on street where these lots, for which she contracted to pay $69. She then bought another for $400. These two lots which originally cost the company about $6 will bring $469 with interest. Mrs. Revise still feels no doubt that she has "won" her lot.
Such operations as these occurred not only, in Baltimore, but also in other ports. Pigeon Eagle
Washington, D. C., June 14—Ac-
companied by a delegation from
Ohio, Mrs. Charles Young, was re-
ceived by President Hurding at
the White House, last week follow-
ing the burial ceremony of her
husband.
The President spoke earnestly on what the loss of Colonel Young means to the entire nation. Mrs Young's two children, Charles, 10 and Marie 13, are still in school in France. RATTALION GETS COLORS
Lawyer Says:
One of New York's leading lawyers told the AFRO-AMERICAN today: "I expect the jury to find Marcus Garvey guilty of using the United States mails to defraud buyers of stock in the Black Star Steamship Line.
"I also expect the Court to impose a fine of $500 to $1,000 and to sentence the defendant to not less than five years in the Atlanta Penitentiary.
This is not the first time that Mr. Garvey has conducted his own case in court, for very frequently before he has taken various cases out of the hands of his lawyers. Lawyers who accepted the position of an attorney for Mr. Garvey very soon found out that they had very little leeway. Never before has he antagonized court and jury with his arbitrary procedure as he has this time.
Bets are being made in New York today as to the length of sentence. Odds of ten to one are being offered that Mr. Garvey will get a vacation at Atlanta.
FIGURED ON 500 TOURISTS, BUT GOT BARELY 37
FIGURED ON 500 TOURISTS, BUT GOT BARELY 37
The sum of $827 was awarded the Tourist Company Thursday.
Expecting 500 tourists on a 90-day trip to Mexico, Liberia, and getting 272 visitors why the trip Africa board a chartered bus by the American-African Tourist Company, a Philadelphia corporation, failed in 1921.
Suit of this company to secure the return of $4,000 paid as a guarantee to the American Travel Club, a local concern, began Tuesday in the Superior Court before Judge Wm. H. York, Rev. R. R. Wright, Rev. W. H. Jernigan, Rev. Henry J. Callis and Rev. L. J. Jordan.
Early in 1921 the Tourist Company set out to promote a tour to Liberia and contracted with the Travel Club to furnish the vessel. The hire pastor then contracted with the Canadian Pacific Steamship Company to charter the steamship "Tunisian" for the tour.
This contract set out that $3,000 was to be paid the Travel Club as a guarantee fund before chartering of the vessel, and that amounts ranging from $5,000 to $10,000 paid monthly on October 3rd when the balance of an amount agreeing to $14,199 was to be paid.
When on August 1st, the amount due was not forthcoming, the American Travel Club gave notice of cancellation of the project and terminated its contract with the Canadian Pacific Steamship Company. At this time only 37 passengers paid the advances on their reservations according to York's testimony given by Major York. Letters were read from major York declaring that 500 tourists would easily be secured and so many more that may be two ships would be needed instead of one.
HAD EOUGH SLEDDING
Evidence brought out at the trial shows that this project had rough shedding from the beginning. John Emm, President of the Travel Company, testified that much difficulty was met with in securing a vessel because steamship companies did not want to charter boats of this class to Negroes, caring that it would decrease their prestige with white passenger trade. Nothing was obtained from the United States Shipping Board and it was only after several trips to Canada that he was able to secure the Tunisian, which was engaged for the trip.
From the first it was declared the Tourist Company had difficulty in meeting the payments as stipulated in the contract. Finally a total of $4,000 was paid to the committee set farbigness out to meet the $5,000 correspondence presented at the trial showed. the strained relation of the parties when an ultimatum was sent the Tourist Company on August

CONVICT GARVEY, JUDGE IS TOLD, AND YOU DIE
Fed. Judge Mack and Dist. Attorney Said to Have Received Anonymous Letters from Garveyites
GARVEY ON STAND
Black Star Line Head Denies Statements of Government Witnesses
New York, June 14.—With a crowded court-room as usual during the last three weeks, the trial of Marcus Garvey, charged with using the mails to defraud purchasers of stock in the Black Star Line, has been going on in the United States court.
It became known today that Judge Mark and District Attorney Mattuck have received anonymous letters threatening them with death in case Garvey is convicted. The effect of this threat was seen Wednesday when an auto backfired in the street below and the juries jumped negatively.
Garvey's belligerent attitude earlier in the trial was changed to one of polite acquiescence. There also were sordid transformations. Gone were the yellow waistcoat, the white-and-tan shoes and the palm Beach suit he had worn during his blustering and thunder-voiced career as his own counsel.
In their stead he wore a modest brown shirt with black shoes and a white shirt with starched sleeves. His gold-tinned monocle remained, but he did not use it as he seemed documents on the witness stand.
HE AND BISHOPS
AT RACES
Garvey was then asked if he had behind a tree in Youngstown, O. while Harry Watkins, a Black Star stock salesman, was arrested and locked up.
"I never hid from anybody in the world," said Garvey.
An earlier witness had testified Garvey lost money on the rags in Cuba.
You should attend any races in Jamaica and "cuba" asked Mr. Kohn. "Yes," asked Garvey.
"But the races in Cuba mean a general holiday, don't they?" inquired the lawyer. "Certainly," said Carvey. "The bishops and everybody else goes to the races in Cuba." FLEECED BY SALESMAN
After describing the purchase of the steamship Yarmouth from the Shipping Board for $165,000 (of which $155,000 was actually paid) and a shipment of 100 tons of the stock selling trip of the vessel to Cuba and Southern coast ports, Mr. Garvey gave the first indication of his defense.
On that trip, was one Gordon Ward, a stock salesman, who, he said, took money for stock and in-stud of giving receipts to the purchasers, gave them orally made notes, and None of this purchase money, he charged, was turned in to the com- charged, was turned into the com- to show that the would-be purchasers were entitled to the stock which they claimed. His serious trouble, he said, dated from the time he demanded Blake Star Line stock in exchange for their applications.
"REMARKABLE IGNORANCE"
During the course of Garvey's testimony, Mr. Kohn excused the nature of one of his answers on the ground that Garvey did not know what constituted an admissible answer, since he knew nothing of law. "But he has been acting as his Mack. In some respects he Mack. "In some respects he has shown remarkable knowledge and in some respects he has shown remarkable ignorance." (Continued On Page Seven)

Jumps 3,500 Ft.
Daredevil Airplane Jumper Had Parachute In One Hand And Saxaphone In Other To Play As He Fell
New York, June 14.—Everybody likes a little music with his meals, but Lt. Hechtburt Julian likes a little music to accompany his 3,500 foot jump out of the clouds. Accordingly when the "Bonita Le Primera," which is the name of the first airplane owned by colored people in New York soared aloft from the Hasbrok, N. J. Flying Field last Sunday, besides the pilot of the machine, Lt. Julian was a passenger. Sungly wrapped behind his back like a soldier carries a knapsack, Lt. Julian, had his parachute.
Straps fostened it around his shoulders. The lieutenant carried his favorite saxophone, parachute and jumper started for the ground at an amazing speed.
From the ground it seemed that the jumper fell nearly a thousand feet before the parachute opened. Then it checked his headlong plunge, ensuring him to come to the ground reef foremost. Despite the high wind the jumper landed within the flying field and as he came within earshot of the spectators, it was discovered that he was playing "Running Wild" on the saxophone.
Athletic Hubby 62 Leads Cops A Chase
Philadelphia, June 14.—Crusader Service)—Spiriting, high jumping and swimming records were all in danger yesterday afternoon when Albert Turner, 62 years old, of 29th and Alter streets, tried to avoid arrest on a warrant sworn out by his wife, Lille.
Turner saw the police coming and jumped out of a third-story window in the rear of his house. He then jumped over a high fence and ran to Gary's number mill, at 29th and Peltz streets, followed by balllets.
At the foot of Ellsworth street he plunged into the Skunkkill River. He was swimming across when a rain of bullets splashing all around him arrested his flight and he surrendered.

Palm Beach, Fla., June 14—
Henry Simmons, a native of
the Bahama Islands, was hanged to a

bullets for speaking out against

From the ground it seemed that the jumper fell nearly a thousand feet before the parachute opened. Then it checked his headlamp plunge, enabling him to come down the ground for formation. Deserting the wind the jumper landed within the flying field and as he came within earshot of the spectators, it was discovered that he was playing "Running Wild" on the saxophone.
AGED MAN ARRESTED AS MURDER SUSPECT
Believed To Have Operated
Illegally Upon White and
Colored Mothers To
Save Reputation
Kinston, N. C., June 12—Frank
Howard, 70 years old was arrested
at his home here Monday after the
finding of the body of a young woma-
man in an outhouse on his place.
He is the husband of Virginia

a middle-aged woman, in connection
with today's case and that first de-
gree murder charges would be
launched against Howard.
Neighbors reported that on Sunday
Howard was trying to borrow a shovel to "use in his garden" and that when they went to investigate they found a dog tied at either end of the outhouse and were armed
in one room and in the body of the
woman who had been dead for some
time in the other room.
Howard's home was regarded as a hospital to which girls and women about to become mothers could go for illegal operation. A number of women visitors at the home, white as well as colored. Authorities are conducting a search of the premises for bodies and mothers said to have buried them.
HOUSES FALL WHILE INMATES SLEEP IN BED
Six Men and Women Buried Alive When Land Caves In
THREE MAY DIE
Police and Firemen Join In Rescue Work and Dig Bodies Out
Six persons were buried beneath the wreckage and seriously injured when the house in which they were sleeping collapsed shortly after 12:30 Thursday night. A seventh was badly hurt by flying bricks.
The crash occurred at Nos. 1620 and 1622 Bram street. The six hurt, all of them colored, were dug out from the debris and taken to University Hospital, where three of them may die.
The injured are:
William Collins, 55.
Mary Turpin, 56.
Carrie Morris, 47, who is expected to die.
Hester Windsor, 70, serious internal injuries.
Carrie Scott, 37, broken back and leg.
Alfred Butler, 18.
Chauncey Bassett, who was cut by a dying brick.
DIG FOR VICTIMS
Firmen and policemen were rushed to the scene and had to dig beneath the plaster, mortar and brick to rescue the victims. Passershy joined in the rescue work and the seven were rushed to the University Hospital. The collapse was said to have been caused by excavations for the Royal Palace Hotel. Early rumors were that at least ten persons were buried far down in the pile of wreckage. Working furiously against time, the rescuers, led on by the means of the victims, threw aside joists and bricks. Passersby joined in the rescue work and in record time the seven victims were on their way to University Hospital. Hundreds of neighbors and passers-by lent aid. An alarm of fire was turned in to get the aid of apparatus in the rescue. And with showers, picks and bare hands the workers went to their task.
EXCAVATING BLAMED
Workmen have been excavating for the Royal Palace Hotel, and police charged that the work had been carried on without the proper supervision. Mr. Jones, proprietor of the Royal Palace Hotel, however, assured the officer that he had proper permit before starting the excavation.
The excavating left the wall without support. Police will investigate it.

Leonard Harper Tells How Colored Musical Show Was Received In London
STAYED SIX WEEKS
Coming of Florence Mills and Her Show Cut Stay Short
New York. June 14.—Leonard Harper of the team of Harper and Banks, the principals in the unfortunate "Plantation Days" Company that: "C'Neil and Greenwald took to London under contract to Sir Alfred Burt of the Empire Theater to appear in that house in the "Rainbow," the show that De Garrie produced and in which Jannie Hussey was to have started called at the New York office of the Billboard, and told the follower story of their trip:
The cochran interests had already contracted the "Plantation Room Revive" with Florence Mills, when we were sent to England, salar Harper. Seeing the competitive possibilities of our company, we sensed that these interests began a newspaper campaign against us before we had arrived. This it was easy to enlist the gimpatiens of the British performers and musicians, with the result that there was a great deal of attention. The public however, was not at all unfriendly when we sent in, and we worked the six weeks for which we were appointed. The four weeks' renewal however was not for forming beehive or the restaurant in which the bulk of our work was to have once place we never permitted
Some fire restrictions were imple-
mated matter being a local light
beware of conflicting interests, in
which we were the sufferers, the

posed our activities to a brief
comparison in the production which
was really not enough to justify
the expense of retaining us. Hence
our return.
We did not return steerage as
has been reported in the trade journal
and the Billboard. It is true
that Sir Alfred Butt did not pre-
vote money to the company than that,

second class rate.
We have no complaint against Mr. O'Neil who was entirely fair, even though he neglected to specify in his contract any particular form of transportation, or complained about the Empire managements' disdination to private work, working the wholly owned show and thus provide us with a means to make ourselves worth more to them. The London public was entirely satisfied. The management with no knowledge of our type of performance underdog to direct the material and time we were to have This we believe to have been tactical leadership, we knew that the German Negro taken in general better than could the English directors who were totally familiar with the subject.
The unfavorable propaganda against the company got on the nerves of the performers, many of whom were new people with little novel experience, a fact that presented our acceptance of one of the several offers for European engagements. The company is back, the in-house and I will at once assemble the people in preparation of a new show that will include most of the loyal performers. Nothing has been lost to the colored artist by our experience. There is no real ill-will for the colored artist in Europe, and I hope some day toz head another big show for a trip across the pond.

Lola B. Grant's "Go Get 'Em"
Company, a show that needs a
straight man, a comedian and a
chorus, Miss T. Grant and Tilford
should abandon the use of
coth. The show stands as it is a
50 per cent attraction, with
continuing superior to the talent,
and if that were measured alone,
it would only yield a 75 per cent
mark. The show only ran forty-
minutes. Miss Grant worked
her best no result.
George Hooks Tilford and Willie Cole were the comics. Others in the troupe were Irene Cook, Tilton Stone, Louise Mumford, Robbin Saunders, Florence Harris, Louise Silory and Jesse Weathers. They opened full stage with a wood scene. Miss Grant did a song and dance with chorus support to no appreciation. Miss Cook followed with a number that fared the same. Then follows some talk between Miss Cook and straight Stone that reveals the chiristers to the guesus in Miss Cook's home. This in spite of the exterior setting. Cole Under Cork slips over a snout, an apparent effort to prepare to the audience that he is not using snout. He put on a fair dance that was deprived of its proper applause because of the patrons' disgust with the talk that had preceded it.
Miss Grunt had better luck with another number, taking a fair hand for her second song. She did a nice dance with it. Tilford did a blues number on the saxophone, accompanied by the orchestra that took an encore. Miss Cook did fairly well with a song and dance. The principals then go into a period conversation with the chorus standing idly by, detracting from the selling effect of the talk. Thus they waited till time for the finale—Wesley Varnell.

Another Colored Musical Comedy
Joe Sheffall's revue, one of the clearest little colored musical comedy tabloids that has been seen in wadeville is to be expanded into a full-sized show. Macco Pinkard, who wrote the music for the "Liza" show, and Jones and Jones a comedy act in wadeville are consolidated into a show of about thirty-five people. The concern is to be incorporated as there is an outside investor associated with them. The show which is not intended for Broadway will be in charge of Sheffall with an employed manager. Pinkard will direct the orchestra and a pair of saxophones will be carried to augment the orchestra. Echopeals menued on June 4, and the production is expected to be ready by the latter part of the month.

Joe Jones and his Syncopators are in Florida, Joe writes a brief but pungent letter upon general race relations in that state, from the Duxland Theatre in West Palm Beach.
Four years ago there was not a single artist of the group, Bert Williams excepted. Recorded on any of the records. Today, employ Negro talent extensively recording company has canned the talent of one or more of the race, more than them, many; and the Oleh Company, the first to has a complete program of releases by certain artists of the race, Sarah Martin, Mamie Smith, Eva Sheton Brooks, Esther Bijou, Clarence Williams, W. C. Handy, and Milner and Lybs. They are advertising heavily in race matters.
The grave of Duke Anderson, the comedian with the Harvey Minstrels, who dide from an accidental gunshot in Tellville, Out. was cared for by T. P. J. Powers, Prop. of the Queens Hotel of that city, on Memorial Day, at the request of Mr. C. Jay Smith, Manager of the show.
"Just a Melody" by Dave Klum, published by the Handy Publishing Company, must be a pleasing number. Anthony Hallis writes from Duffafo, that "It is certainly a bit" in an unsodded better to the composer. That's a tip to others who want the number.
"The Sias Green Co." is much chatted over the result of a day and engagement with "The Florida Blossoms" on Decoration Day, at Charlotteville, Va. The city was treated to a band contest. Prof. Booker's boys besides the talent they disclosed, were equally superior in brand new uniforms that had just arrived from Columbus, according to a letter from Mrs. Booker, who has recovered from her recent illness. Their date at Alexandra was camelot due to railroad congestion during the White Shriners Convention.
The Musician Spillers have returned to burguese. They will be with a Hurray and Seaman attraction next season.

Eddie Green, principal comic, has left the Friedenwald Plantation Lays Co., closing at Detroit, May. 25. He's doing a single, over the T.O. E. time to take up his winter engagement in burlesque. Financial conditions are none too good with the show, according to Eddie.
Pank Kirk, Esther Bigou, Alice Bamster, Valdee Snow, Ed. Good-bur, "Snappy" Jones, Ernest Smith, and "Doppe" Venerable are the principals in the Billy King "Moonshine" Company that is reported to have gotten off to an excellent start at the Grand Theatre in Chicago.

HIGH PRAISE FOR DUDLEY CARNIVAL
HIGH PRAISE FOR DUDLEY CARNIVAL
In response to Mr. Charles Ringling I must say that if all Carnivals will adopt the plan that the Jones-Jenkins Carnival is based upon soon all feeling against such institutions will be eliminated.
One must give Uncle Dudley credit for the massive show and personal from the advance agent to the most laborer in his police and gentlemen in which all of them conduct themselves.
The show played my town Rockville, Md., last week and there was nothing but good word said for it from both whites and colored people. The big top with its vaudeville features was liberally patronized each evening with its mixed crowd. "While Dad" James with his Dog and Pony act and Willie being a volunteer contortionist in the small Top. The men, all of them were without the least scintillation of dishonesty or graff, the merry-go-round and swings were operated by a gentleman corps of attendants, the people of Rockville declared the show to be all that was said for it and more that what was expected. Hartman and his Quince Orchard band kept the crowds in good humor and on their toes the entire week as they lited from one engagement spot to the other. I would have been pleased if an organization but previous engagements and local obligations would not permit me to least (this season).
While I cannot say as to the financial success derived so far, I will say that S. H. Dudley has had many ups and downs since he started this thing and it may take some little time to get on a good working profitable basis. Faint Heart once answered a fair question but if S. H. holds on in the manner in which he has started, success surely must be his. 32. From other sources the information has come that the show was so cleanly presented, that the condition of its people was so far above approach, and that the grounds remained free from damage. The sheriff of the county has volunteered to provide the management with a public notice indorsing these facts.
The show will play the lot adjoining the Douglas Theater in Baltimore during the week or June 18, under the auspices of the American Woodman, At Lakeland, M.D. they played under the auspices of the A.

SOUTH'S BIGGEST AND BEST WEEKLY BALTIMORE, JUNE 15. 1923
The Billboard Summer Special
The Billboard Summer Special
By J. A. Jackson
No group in the amusement world has profited more from the widespread publicity afforded by special issues of the Billboard, the magazine composed of colored artists, show folks and those interested with them. Stacks of complimentary letters and hundreds of chippings from the press of the race amply testifies to that fact. The editorial policies and practices that elicited these evidences of approval will be continued.
However, publicity alone will not achieve for you all that is needful for your success. Intelligent advertising is necessary if a real gain to be made.
Circuit managers, theater owners, music publishers, hotel proprietors, record jobbers, consumers, supply chain officers, goods wholesalers, and the many others whose goods and services find a ready market with the thousands of readers of the Page, will do well to avail themselves of the special numbers.
Now is the time to place your
pad, for the next one THE SUMMER Special. Copy intended to
appear on Jackson's Pages should
be in by June 19. Final date for
all copy, June 23.
Performers, the card list on
Jackson's Page closes on June 20.
Let the producers know where you
may be found. Talent for next
shows is selected during the sum-
mer.
DAN MICHAELS HAS
A NEW PARK SITE
By J. A. Jackson
Dan Michaels who for two seasons operated the Happy Park at 143 street and the Harlem River in New York, has secured a site at the river between 141 and 142 St. for an amusement place that he will call the Riverside Park. His jibes will augment the shows that were pattured in the former enterprise. The park opens May 25.
Dan has been busy. Last year when the season closed he put out a theatrical production with unfortunate results, but this spring he has had better fortune. He placed all the rides from his former Long Island dates.
chorus is making repeat dates in some of the Sun剧 theaters and shows a day. Return engagements have always been the greatest possible tribute to merit so the show must have the goods and we know they have.
Low Henry wants a first-class lady orchestra to open at the new Household Theatre about July first, when the structure will be dedicated. The lady orchestra will be one of the many innovations completed. One night each month the house will be occupied by a dramatic club composed of some of the boys and girls of the best families in the city. Any production that proves to be of useful merit will be given a week's engagement.
Janes Durris passed away at the country home of S. H. Dudley, near Washington, early Sunday morning, June 3rd, Mr. Dudley saw that his old associate had the best medical attention and care until the last.
New York Sunday and Monday, June 3-4, carousels to Chicago, where the show lays up for the summer after a very happy season. Twenty six of the people will summer in the windy city, and about the same number will scatter.
Just had a letter from Edward Langford of the Gonzalez White Co. sent from San Juan, Puerto Rico. With it is a long hanger-containing the individual and collective pictures of the lunch, and some chipping both of the coats and clothes being in the lunch. We in the club mean that the lunch is going great in the islands. They go to Havana soon.
Blackwell's Sunny South is doing well in the Canadian provinces according to Al Wells, who stops between bibations. We write to write that the show can come more musicians. Otherwise everything is fine with Mr. Nelson's troupe.
The dramatic class of Dampton Institute recently presented "The Brown Mouse" in four acts of nine scenes at the school with very good results. The Shakespeare club presented Molières "The Merchant Gentleman" at the School giving excellent interpretation to the characters of the French masterpiece.

Twelve shows and four rides have been contracted, and a joint fraternal and show parade will be given on one of the days.

Mastens Holiday in Dixie Co. is rehearsing some new stuff that is to be presented in Havana, opening June 15.
R. H. Lightner of the Arcade, Raleigh; the manager of the Dixie Theater of Highpoint, and W. A. Watkins of Darham were all in Winston-Salem during the Elks state meeting and hobnobbed with Willie Walls.
"Jules McGarr and his Ragtime Steppers" is one of the best shows on the Time. The girls are good-looking, the wardrobe clean and claess; there is no "smut", there is laughter from start to finish, and the people are ladies and gentleman on and off stage. It is a hundred per cent attraction, says Willie Walls in a letter from Winston-Salem, and Willie is a hard judge of shows.

It is a clipping that Bill will be proud to keep for life.
Sarah Martin came back to New York on June 11, after a triumphant tour of the northern houses of the T. O. B. A. circuit. In Cleveland the management made her presents. In Chicago and Detroit the houses increased the number of shows per day.

INDEPENDENTS PLAN
PERMANENT SPLIT
FROM REPUBLICANS
Jackson Club To Organize and Urge Registra tion of Voters As
The National Campaign Next Fall Certain To Witness Similar Split
With Howard W. Jackson is Mayor steps will be taken to organize a large number of colored voters for working with the Democratic party in major elections.
This step will be taken by colleged men who are in the light for the section of Mr. Jackson.
The view prevails that it is now time for the colored people to make permanent their division of votes and not manifest it, as in the past, with the position to certify candidates.
To Make Split Permanent
J. Stewart Davis, who was one of the leaders in the independent campaign gat w. Asbene hawkins made for the United States Senate and came up the situation as follows: "Although I was certain that Mr. Jackson would be heavily supported by the colored voters, I was not prepared for the unusual gopher who would show us the political independence. It has indeed gratifying to us who have been laboring for the past five years and more to observe the fruits of our labors. We intend to do can can to make the president, and we will be on hand in the fall."
Register As Democrats
One of the first steps will be to get a large number of colored voters to affiliate as Democrats. It is pointed out that the colored voters of New York City received but non recognition in a political campaign. The colored voters during the time that the late Richard Croker was the Democratic leader there. Colored Democrats in the metropolis of the nation have one of the most student organizations in the country. In addition is made of the fact that handsome supported Alfred E. Smith for Governor last fall and that Henry W. Shields, a colored Democrat, was elected to the New York Legislature, while Rev. K. M. Bolden, a Republican, was defended. The unrest in Maryland among colored voters in blindly supporting the Republican party exists all over the nation. It was manifested in the recent municipal election in Chicago, when many colored voters voted for a Democrat Mayor.
Wilson Soiffed The Beans
The colored votes of the country would have split between both parties before now had the Wilson administration not turned its back on the work that the country was doing to improve the lives of its people. Bishop Waters, who moved the league and his coworkers inducted for several years prior to air, Wilson's first election was to bring about a division in the party among southern white Democrats, however, and many colored voters were driven back into the Republican party in national elections. There is deep dissatisfaction with the training administration among the colored voters of the country and many are in the mood to support the candidate for president, a woman who is manifested at a white rally, as colored leaders of that state meet on Thursday to test and adopt resolutions criticizing the attitude of the heating regime toward the face and demanding a hurrier deal from the Republican leaders of New Jersey.
Many Independent Voters
For years there have been colored men in Maryland who were deserves of invading their votes they were added in by a few whites, but the leaders of the Democratic party were not meant to give them any recognition because with independent elected voters independently around election time. It is said that the late Mayor Pendrick C. Latrobe was supported by quite a number of colored voters in his seven successive campaigns for Mayor. He so-called Stay at-home movement among course of votes in 1853.
Cleveland Lieutenant Here
When the late S. H. J. Taylor, who was Recorder of Deeds at Washington during the second Cleveland administration, came to the Vilas Valley administration to argue and a quarter of his shingle as a lawyer, it was thought he would lead a movement for a division of the colored vote. His admission to the bar was moved by Congressman Robert H. Carter. He stood of the city for Atlanta, however, to become dean of the law school then being run in connection with Morris Brown University.
He returned of the Democrats to power in Maryland in 1902 the Wilson bailout laws, attempts at disfranchisement and the passage of the "Jim Crow" law. These kept many in the Republican Party.
Some colored men are already asserting that they intend to support Governor Ritchie for renomination and re-election. Some may be up with Hugh McMullen, who
A big light, with many colored Republicans participating, is seen for next fall for control of the party machinery Colored Republican leaders are watching who will be spring for the Gubernatorial nomination and also have eyes set upon the light for the selection of delegates to the Republican National Convention next spring.
Here Is How The South Works
THE GREAT WAR
The above photo shows a Southern prison labor gang at work. Inquiry into the death of a labor convict in a Florida prison camp aroused widespread interest all over the country, and led to investigation and arrest of the whip boss of the gang. As a result the Florida legislature has banned the use of the lash for the future.
"Convict Garvey," Judge Is Told, "And You Die"
Discord between Mercree Garvey and his co-defendants, evident since the start of their trial on charges of using the mails to defend, received unmistakable emphasis when two of them took the stand and gave testimony strictly for themselves.
There apparently has been little effort from the beginning to present a common defense, but the real extent of the rift between the defendants was not shown clearly until the two took the witness stand.
One of the defendants, Ell Garcia, even testified he was going to be arrested on a charge of forcing a check for $40. Garcia said he was convicted for forgery and was about to be sentenced when Federal officials obtained permission for him to appear at the trial in the Federal Court.
The other defendant who contributed little to Garvey's case was George Tobias, Treasurer of the Black Star Steamship Line, of which
A character witness subpoenaed by Garvey gave an unusual bit of knowledge. Right behind, John J. Collins, an instructor at Fordham University, who said he knew Garvey as a boy in Kingston, Jamaica, and added him to the list of people who "do you know many people who know Mr. Garvey?" asked Garvey in the most impassioned manner. "And what is Mr. Garvey's reputation for truth and veracity and proof?" asked Garvey. "This caused laughter. Whether the witness has misunderstood the question was not brought out, and he left the stand." The trial is expected to be reached when Marcus Garvey, as character and material witness, is called by Marcus Garvey to justify for Marcus Garvey, defendant. When Judge Julian W. Mack heard yesterday that Garvey will question Garvey about Garvey, he cancelled his plans for a trip West this week.
TRY TO GET MISTRIAL
A juror's question Saturday caused an unsuccessful attempt of Henry Lincoln Johnson, counsel for Henry Lincoln Johnson, have judge Mack declare a mistrial. The query followed examination by Johnson of Orlando M. Thompson, counsel for the Black Star Line and co-defendant. The juror and most of those in the courtroom failed to get the point of Mr. Johnson's examination, and any special point García's attorney wished to prove through the questions asked of Thompson. Johnson threw down evidence of the mistrial, arguing that the juror was patently prejudiced against his client. Judge Mark said he saw no evidence of any prejudice in the question. Thompson in his testimony brought out quite clearly that the defendant was the defunct Black Star Line at no time did he ever function as such, since even in Garvey's absences he was represented by his attorney, Wilford and others.
Thompson testified having negotiated with Silverstone, a white man, for the purchase of the Hong Khong which was then said to be in Hong Khong, China. He arranged a first payment of $100,000, and that Silverstone would have the boat in New York Harbor in eleven days.
Thompson took this promise seriously and with no idea that several records might be broken if Silverstone made good. The team, he would be history-making run from Hong Khong, China, to New York in eleven days. Silverstone professing serious difficulties. Silverstone had given power attorney to Garvey, even though the Black Surf Line had its headquarters in the same city as Silverstone. During the day, Marcus Garvey set himself up as authority on the Black Surf Line and disguised results. When Thompson was telling the court that he had been elected to his office by decimation, Garvey wanted to know if Garvey was given a claim for him, etc., until Judge Mack patiently explained to the self-constituted lawyer and leader the meaning of the word "declamation." The request by the defense of adjournment was denied. The Rev. Frederick Augustus Toote, No. 37 West 136th street, international organizer and former President of the Black Surf Association and a director of the Black Surf Line, proved a

One would have thought that recruits so desitént of moral courage were scarcely worth enrolling. I venture the suggestion, which I may not directly disagree to the Klan, that without the masks there would be no recruits."

BIG PROFITS PROMISED
Tostimony also showed that a profit of about $2,600 was to be divided between the Travel Club and the Tourist Company. $2,600 was to be divided between the Tourist Company is that the Travel Club after agreeing to waive some of the terms of the contract used to pay payments of the contract, thereby prevented them from securing passengers and killed the project. In reply the Travel Club allege that the fact that the Tourist Company met their obligations prevented them from carrying out their contract. According to the contract they held the $2,000 in as forfeited. The ginger was injected in the trial when Mr. Emm stated that following this cancellation Major York offered to settle the matter if he was paid $1,000 personally. Mr. Emm denied that J. C. Lullins of Washington, also testified for the American-African Tourist Company.

lively defense witness on cross-examination.
Assistant United States Attorney the Mattuck asked Toole if a rally was not held by the United Negro Immigration Center for the purchase of a ship to be called Dylphis Wheedley of the Black Star Line. Toole replied he had been told there was, but said he had not been told. Toole testified the Black Star Line had enough cash to make a $25,000 deposit on the ship it purchased to deposit on the ship it proposed to purchased, and failed to get flustered when Mr. Mattuck showed him a streamline company's balance in bank at the time was $185.61.
"That's all we had in bank," he said, "but there was $25,000 on demolition of the Shipboard in construction."

BUNGLE EXECUTION
Two Long Shocks Necessary To Cause Death of Condemned Man
Effort Will Be Made To Bring Back Gallows Instead of Chair
Taligh, N. C. June 14. After witnessing an electroction of a colored man, at the State prison, he was told by Watkins said he would take steps to have this form of punishment abolished in the State. After witnessing an electroction of Robert Williams had been looked forward to with a mixture of curiosity and pleasure. And aside from members of the Legislature a white woman was appointed elector to exercise the performance.
GLOOM OVERSHADOWS
Up until the victim was escorted to the electric chair the spectators and the agony from which Williams suffered during the first shock of forty-five seconds, which sent 1800 volts of electric current through his body, caused the water-soaked helmet on his head to explode, and of fire, as the body jerked, trembled, foamed at the mouth, bubbles of foam and saliva trickling to the floor. This caused much excitement among the spectators, the man and the woman, who fainted, he being carried out feet foremost.
After releasing the current, it was found that Williams was not dead, and therefore, it was necessary to go through the hole. The second shock lasted for several minutes, it is said, causing great agony to the victim.
EFFECT UPON WHITES
Representative John S. Watkins said after it was over, "I would hate to see a white man electrocuted. I could not stand it. It was all to his death in such agony. I shall take steps to have this kind of penalty abolished in the State."

MORRIS MAKES GOOD WILL TOUR OF N. C.
Nashville, N. C., June 14—Charles Satchchell Morris, Jr., of Norfolk, Va. has been taking a "Good Will Tour of North Carolina" for the past two weeks.
It is estimated that more than 59,000 persons of both races have already greeted the distinguished young Virginia orator.
The burden of Morris' efforts in this State has been his insistence that the white race look with appreciation upon the arduous struggle that the Negro is making to lift himself in the economic scale. He concerned himself to a large extent with the present unprecedented exodus declaring that "where justice is done there is no desire to depart for strange sections and uncertain enclaves."
In his address at Hickory, in the new City Auditorium, before a vast number of both race four young spokesman declared that "Liberty has always been a fundamental value for it in fended him has fought for it in peace and contended for it in the theatre of conquest. Members of my race are departing from children with the speed of the feathered tride.
"I would speak no fear to troubled hearts nor enthrone hopeless views. But this I say: When court houses shall become temples of justice, and velvet-clad judges shall speak the language of the law, when school houses shall smile serenely from placid mountain brows, when peonage shall vanish from the golden face of Dixie as mist before the rising sun, when the fetters of the wage slave shall be broken, and th chains shall be loosened from the body of the defenceless black, when the hand of the Negro in the South shall hold the ballot, when faith shall whisper sweetly in the ears of the suppliant and no invisible body shall trammell its full expression, then gentlemen these two races here in the South under God shall keep step to the sweet and dulce music of progress until this island of time is united, with the continent of eternity."
The entire trip through the State is being made by automobile, young musicians being sponsored, the tourers by George Speller, Nashville: M. C. Dixon, of Rocky Mount, and a group of solosists who are furnishing music for the occasion. The group also works with a coedal meeting in the City Auditorium at Raleigh. Morris recently spoke from the same platform with the Governor of North Carolina in the City Auditorium, before an audience of more than 7,000 persons.

USE BALLOT TO AID HAITI, SAYS BISHOP HURST
Harding Criticised for Failure to Keep Promise to Withdraw Marines From Island
MARSHALL A FIGUREHEAD
Haitians Regard Colored New Yorker As Second-Rate Clerk
President Harding has failed to keep his pre-election promise to withdraw the United States Military forces from Haiti.
Because we are strong and they try, taken its lands and its resources are weak, we have gone into a coun- and use them as our own.
No country in modern times has perpetrated such a vile and damn- able outrage upon another as the United States upon Haiti.
The United States is dealing with the black people of Haiti like the Southerners deal with the Negroes in Georgia, Florida and Mississippi.
We are an interloper and have no more business there than I have in my neighbor's house.
Caustic criticism of the Harding administration, high tribute to the spirit of the natives and an appeal to American Negroes to use their ballots marked the address of Bishop John Hurst before a group of college men meeting with the Century Club of the Y. M. C. A. Wednesday night.
Bishop Hurst, just back from a tour of his former home Haiti and Santo Domingo, told how Americans have violated the sovereignty of the former black republic and now govern the island with marshals.
How the United States has taken over control of Haitian finances, taken over their banks, suppressed newspapers and jailed editors, dismissed both branches of the Legislature and forced upon the islanders a new constitution was told by the Bishop to an audience that listened in painful silence.
Asked from the floor what Haiti can do to go forward in island Haiti Hurst declared "use your ballots next year in the Presidential election to restore the liberty of Haiti." Harry T. Pratt who presided, declared the U. S. control of Haiti was a part of its plan to control all approaches to the Panama Canal.
Major Wm. H. York of Philadelphia declared that Senator McCain of the Senate Committee which investigated Haitian conditions admitted that the U. S. had hungled in seizing Haiti, and that it intended to withdraw marines as their enlistment expired. Bishop Hurst stated that far from withdrawing marines, the U. S. was landing detachments at parts of the coasts where it was that they might escape ordinary observation. Proposals to send black troops and to substitute commission of colored American for the white U. S. commission, he declared were turned down by the Administration.
Marshall Regarded as Clerk
Captain Napoleon Marshall sent by the Harding administration to Haiti to act as a liaison-officer between natives and Americans is regarded by Haitians as a second-rate clerk, the Bishop said. Captain Marshall has a desk in the Commission's headquarters and is said to be drawing a salary of $1800 a year. Haitians say the American commission is costing them $60,000 a year and the Commission has borrow $80,000,000 from American Bankers which the Commission is spending to suit itself.
William M. Brewer suggested that the Haitians might take a page from India's history and report to passive resistance, since it was impossible to drive the American clean out by force of arms.
Thankful for a Baby at Home
Says No Woman Wants A Childless Home
I was in a week run-down condition, and I had six babies who did not live. Before my seventh baby was born, I heard of Woman's Aid (famous woman's tonic), and its great work. My husband bought it for me, and it helped so much that I have now a nice baby boy four months old.
"I tell every woman what Woman's Aid has done for me. It is a good medicine and can't be beat. As long as the drug stores sell Woman's Aid, I am going to keep it on hand." - Siren
MRS. MARY WRIGHT.
786. N. Fremont, Balto, Md.
"P. S.—"No woman wants a childless home. Without the sound of children's voices and children's laughter, without the echo of little cootsteps patterning across the nursery. But there is no reason why a home should be lonely and childless. When women learn what Woman's Aid will no there, will be fewer."

Annapolis andrew a part of it is also covered by dense shrubbery and trees and runs off into a marshy lowland.
According to the statement of one of the winners and purchasers of lots they are set down as 20 by 100 feet in dimension. This would allow about 21 lots to the acre. Since this land was bought at $60 an acre or 21 lots for $60, it can be readily figured how profitable it is to this company to allow unsuspecting colored people to "win" them at $69 per lot, to say nothing of buying them at as high as $100.
On this basis even if the Aladdin Realty and Home Builders succeed in allowing our people to "win" half of the lots and sells the reminder at an average price of $300 each, they will still sell the lots for $125,580. In other words, they will pay $2,400 for land for which they will sell to unsuspecting colored people for $164,000. Agents for this company are still busy allowing these lots to be sold, the company is still making $250 per lot for 295 W. Lombard street, is still making these glowing promises and keeping "within the law."

PROMISES
Another feature of the selling scheme was the glowing promises of the fine and beautiful homes that would be financed and built in this "Colonial Park" when the lots were paid for. Up to date I found NOT ONE HOME has been constructed, nor is there the slightest evidence of any being built for sometime to come.
The fact is this land comprises about 40 acres of field and wooded lowlands absolutely unimproved since taken over by this company. Part of the property appears to be swamps. It lies about three-quarters of a mile from Clark Station on the Missouri River, a part of Thompson Station. I found there also no provision for water or other modern conveniences.
On paper it may be laid off into lots and streets, but the only sign of a street that may be seen there now is what seems to have been two furrows ploughed through it in setting off the lots. Grass and weeds have for the most part hidden even these signs of a street from

Dr. Ralph Young Thought He Had A New Buick Sedan Until He Investigated
COMPANY MAKES GOOD
COMPANY MAKES GOOD
Discharges Employee Who Made Sale and Furnishes Physician New Car
Dr. Ralph Young, 1429 E. Monument Street, got rid of his Ford and bought himself a new Buick sedan recently.
That is, Dr. Young thought he had a new sedan. The blamed thing didn't run right and didn't look right and so the physician made a little private investigation of his own.
The company told him that it was new and it had also made him pay the price of a new car. They insisted that the automobile was right from the Detroit factory and guaranteed it to give good service. Still unconvinced, Dr. Young took the car over to some automobile experts and had them go over it. They found alcohol in the radiator of the car, put there by the man who owned it last winter, holes in upholstery, a new rear fender on the body and unusual wear in the motor.
Considerably 'bet' up at being stung and having paid good money for a second-hand car guaranteed to be new, Dr. Young carried his "bus" back to the Nellil Juick people on Mt. Roya Ave. representative from the factory here Monday and went over the whole situation.
He declared to Dr. Young that he would discharge the employee who made the sale and would furnish the physician with a new car direct from the dealership, without additional expense. All this accounts for the reason why Dr. Young is still using his Ford while waiting for his Brick.
Doctors Warn Public to Stop
Buying "Peddled" Medicines They Know Nothing Of
Say Herbs of Life Is Only One That Stands the Test
With the exception of the Famous Double Strength Herbs of Life, leading doctors are determined to stump out the sale of all patent medicines, that are now being peddled from house to house, under fancy and new fangled names.
One leading physician was asked what he thought of Herbs of Life, which was also being canvassed by salesmen. He said, "Herbs of Life is not a patent medicine, it is made from reliable prescription, and under the supervision of real medical experts. We cannot hurt it, for it is just as good as any medicine in the world. But we are going to get behind every other preparation that is being used to swindle the public."
The public is asked to refuse to buy the "Quack preparations," and co-operate with the Physicians by turnin cover to the police, any information leading to arrest of the peddlers of the so-called Indian Tribe, Shellan or Bitter remedies.
Note—Remember that there is only one safe medicine, that is being recommended by Doctors and Drug-gists—Double Strength Herbs of Life.

We are planning to carry a full line of everything that hairdressers have need of, and sell them at the lowest possible prices. Our plans are to scour the country and buy goods at the lowest prices, which will enable us to sell them at the right prices to the trade. We thank you, hairdressers, for your past co-operation, and assure you that if you favor us with your future promotion it will mean dollars in our pockets. Our hairdressing and retail business is in such splendid opportunity for an energetic hairdresser or business man. See us at your earliest convenience with reference to price, terms, etc.

The self-styled "The Shellman" told Mrs. Bancvet that his medicine would surely cure her cancer or she could write to the "Home office" 20:55 Broadway, New York and her money would be refunded. Mrs. Bancvet invested in a treatment, which separated her from her former last $8,00 bill. She took "Shellman's Bitters" as directed, but got no results. Instead of writing to 206 Broadway, she had a new mop in train port running into New York, to clean in person and ask for the refund. In the New York office, she was learned that the "Shellman's Bitters" was merely a fee of $8.00 per month to have his mail forwarded to him. There was no such thing as a lab laboratory in the given number. (Simply a firm receiving mail for small operator who paid monthly fees.
NOTE: Doctors and drugstores are asking that the people's attention be called to the fact that it is very very dangerous to purchase the so-called medicines that are now being polluted from house to house. In fact there is only one advice that is being uncovered by doctors, burgers and health officials: that is the Famous Double Strength Herbs of Life.

Here Wants to Move His Store
to Pennsylvania Avenue
South Enroute to Bankruptcy
The visitor who was in the city in quest of a suitable location for a business in this city has operated a department store in Savannah, Ga. according to his statement, for more than twenty years. He came to the city for the purpose of buying an established business in some part of the city largely populated by colored people. He dropped in to O. Shapiro's, who operates an Army and Navy Store, 817 Penna, Ave. After introducing himself to Mr. Shapiro he began to ascertain the status of his business, saying "I own a department store in Savannah, Ga." Mr. Shapiro informed him that he at one time ran a store in Albany, Ga. Not many words were exchanged before the Georgia gentleman began to make overtures relative to buying Shapiro out. At this juncture the gentleman was asked by a representative of the Afro: "Are you contemplating moving to this section?"
"Yes," said the stranger, I am losing too much money down there." My trade is mostly 'biggers' and more than twenty-five thousand have left in the past six months, and more are leaving daily. The train I came up on

NEW YORK MASONS HONOR PLUMMER

A scene seldom seen in this city was enacted when fellow-members of the various departments in which Mr. Plummer held membership gathered at the home, and escorted the body to and from the Temple. The following program was carried out, under the direction of M. W. Grand Master Williard W. Allen: Hymn—"Nearer My God to Thee." Invocation—Sir John T. Bolden Hymn—"I Need Thee Every Hour." Remarks—G. M. W. W. Allen. Remarks—Grand Chaplain Alfred S. Young. Hymn—"Jesus, Lover of My Soul."

"How are you people going to keep the Negro in the South?" asked the inquiring reporter. "I don't know how we are going to do it—and I am not caring—all I want is a suitable location up here—I am tired of losing money," was the reply. At this juncture Mr. Shapiro informed the prospective buyer that he would be on the Avenue waiting for the colored brother. The stranger found that he was being interviewed by a newspaper man and cried out "Don't you put my name in the paper. They might jump me when I go back for talking too much."
the reporter informed the newcomer that he would not be able to build a business among colored people in this section with the Georgia program and that not only would he lose money, he would very likely lose a few teeth unless he dropped the word "nigger" from his vocabulary. The Southern admitted that the Negro was not paid enough for his work on Southern plantations and that and the boll-wheel was driving them away. He also declared "a lot of good 'niggers' will never leave." The "good nigger" the Georgian referred to is the type of Negro known as "the me-too-boss Negro.

Turning to Mrs. Martha Smith, mother of Mrs. Mary Alice Moore who was prosecuting Charles Moore on a charge of carnal knowledge, Judge Stanton sharply criticised her and all mothers who allow their daughters to drift into such trouble. Mrs. Moore, who but a few days ago was Miss Smith and who accused Moore of being the father of her unborn child had entered a plan to stop the case in view of the fact that Moore had recently married her. The marriage ceremony was performed by Rev. C. H. Steppeau and had the approval of the Probation Department.
"I am not only speaking to you," said Judge Stanton, "but to all mothers who pay such little attention to the children they bring into the world as to allow them to get into trouble like this. You are as much responsible as this young woman and should be brought to a realization of your duty as a parent."
Moore was dismissed on motion of his Atty. Geo. W. Pendleton.

Police Nab
Modern Eve
Suppose you were standing on Druid Hill avenue and suddenly there came bouncing out of a house a young woman dressed as Eve did before she discovered fig leaves, what would you do?
This is just what the reporter and a number of pedestrians saw last Thursday. The young lady in question was Miss Willie Singleton, and the house was 945 Druid Hill avenue. According to the story told by Miss Singleton when she and Miss Gertrude Jackson, of the same address, were haked into the Northwestern Police Court, the troubles of this modern Eve began when a party was staged at the above address.
Miss Singleton, who is an actress, and who comes from Charleston, S.C. stated that she and a number of men and women were having a high time when she decided to go to her room and rest a while. She had barely undressed and gone to sleep when some of the men of the party came to her room in a drunken condition and wanted her to join the merry crowd again. When she refused they pulled her from her bed and a general pandemonium broke. During the maze she claimed that Miss Jackson, who reacts the house, joined the fracas and began beating her. They tore her night dress off and when the light became too hot she bottled for the door. Out on Deud Hill avenue pedestrians surrounded her as a man brought a blanket which he threw around her until the police arrived. When she appeared in Court both of her eyes had been closed by the beating which she claimed Miss Jackson gave her.
Miss Jackson, who was represented by Atty, Roy S. Bond, was missed on the assault charge, while Miss Singleton was fined $5 and cosst for disorderly conduct.
A Meeting

When Mr. James Carter, 515 N. Parrish street, joined so many lodges that he had an important meeting every night, Mrs. Carter decided to investigate, and she broke up one of his meetings anyway.
Last Saturday night she followed a safe distance behind her better half until the trail led into Harlem Park. Here Mr. Carter decided to take a seat and rest. Here, too, Miss Rebecca Lee, 652 Smith street, very soon came and decided to take herself a rest.
"So, this is the lodge meeting," said Mrs. Carter as she landed a

wallop on his head. A police standing nearby then arrested the couple on complaint of Mrs. Carter. At the police station Sunday morning, Miss Lee stated that she was just passing and sat on the same seat with Mr. Carter, whom she did not know. "Then why," put in Mrs. Carter, "were you all curled up in his arms?" The officer also testified that the couple was rather loving. They were fined $5 and costs each.
Takes Gun
For Lonesomeness
The statement that he carried the big gattling gun the police found on him because he used to work in a mine and was bonesome without it did not save Charles Williams, 1057 Park avenue, from a $50 and cost fine Monday. Officers were attracted by cries of murder coming from a window of 1005 McCutloth street, and on investigation found Williams standing in front of the place with a giant pistol and Mrs. Williams and her gentleman friend barricaded in the building. Williams stated that he trailed the couple to the place.

FEW ACCIDENTS
Statistics of Safety School Show Only Sixteen Out of Six Hundred on The B. and O.
4th LECTURE THURSDAY
Expert Will Discuss Clutch, Transmission, Springs,
Colored automobile drivers are exceedingly careful, according to William F. Braden, of the Safety Department of the B. and O. Railroad, speaking at the school for drivers of motor vehicles held under the direction of the Baltimore Safety Council at School 112 last Thursday night.
Mr. Braden said that of the 600 auto accidents on the B. & O. Railroad, only sixteen of the drivers were colored.
Mr. Braden, giving an illustrated lecture on "Automobiles" and the Railroad, urged over 200 men and women taking the course to exercise greatest care in driving over railroad crossings even when a watchman was stationed there.
Sometimes the watchman is stricken on with illness or death, it was said, and fails to lower the gates, in front of the approaching trains. "On the other hand, automobiles have run into the safety gates after they had been closed on six occasions during the post year.
Richard C. Tillman, instructor in the Motor Transportation School at Camp Holobird, occurred on the "Carburator, Ignition and Cooling System." He advised drivers never to tinker with the carburator after it had once been adjusted.
This Thursday night, R. F. Watts, vice-president of the Industrial Management Corporation, will lecture on "Clutch, Transmission and Differential, Springs, Cranks and Tires." John H. Truett, chairman of the Central Safety Committee of the United Railways, will speak on "Automobiles and the Electric Railways."
Brieves of $10, $5 and $2.50 have been offered for the best 500-word essay on the qualifications of a safe, competent driver.
The meeting was enlightened by group singing led by Charles D. Woolsey.
MOBILE NOT SALISBURY
John Gilmore who recently inherited a fortune in the South, declared the statement given in the Afro-American recently contained this error. The mob he saw with a man was in Mobile, Alabama, not in Salisbury, N. C. It was in Mobile also that the crowd in the station attempted to prevent the colored workers from coming North.

Washington, D. C., June 15, 1951. Correspondence—After an appointment session last night, the Old Guard of the Howard University Alumni Association defeated the Young Turks and Radicals in the annual election. The Old Guard was led by T. G. Nixon of Atlantic City, Dr. W. A. Stachter of Philadelphia, and Dr. W. L. Smith of Washington. Their candidate for president was W. Justin Carter of Harrisburg. He was played by five videos after an all-male session which lasted 7 hours. The Young Turks also called themselves the administration forces, were led by Lex. Emory Smith, and their candidate for president was B. M. Rhetta of Baltimore.
so little has the struggle between the two factions become that the young Turks have issued an unqualified statement declaring the Union Association and let the old association go its way. The statement declares that the 6th Association is administration and that one member of the Old Guard, who is a member of the Scottish pro-propaganda committee to President Durkee and to University,

Mack was discovered by the fireman when he went into the tender to shovel down coal to feed the engine.

COMMENT
Wm. Taylor, the Baltimore boy who is familiar to basketball fans as the ace chunker of the Storer College quintet last season, dropped into the office bright and early last Monday morning and sung as a stanza of the Dirty Beat "blues."
Taylor had been called in by the Black Sox management to get a trial with the team. He didn't play in the Cuban Stars series but received a letter from Manager Speddin to be on hand Monday morning to accompany the team to Philadelphia.
When Taylor met the team, he claims that he was told that he would not be playing in Philadelphia claiming that he had not seen him work on and didn't know what he could do.
---
Taylor was just pooled over the raw deal thus handed him, when he decided to motivate one from the Keystone, accept the offer from the Sox club.
---
The Eckharchach Giants like a chaperin in a new gown and hat, strutted themselfs a mace in opening their new park at Atlantic City, taking two games of the threegame series with the Hildale club, and then administered a double-kalosine application in a twin ball with the South Phila H. A. nine.
When the Seashers played here they claimed they hadn't gotten the wintry kinks out of their ball hitters but according to the above the bring breeze breakers are now "right."
Some of the Soy players regard our remarks in this place last week in reference to the diary playing of some members of the team as a "knock". It was not so intently. We have seen in need over a long period of time and know what the players are capable of. So do hundreds of fans.
. . . .
Stirring in the stands, we hear this criticism and when we point it out, we do so with the intention of being helpful, that is, to let the players know that their work is being regarded as below their usual standard, and thus hone them to play better. When a player is only just that we should say so, when he doesn't, we should say so. If the fans are not satisfied with the brand of ball a team is putting up, they will not long patronize that team. It shouldn't require a whole lot of brains to realize this.
Wakeott had to quit the fighting game some years ago when he accidentally left the left hand, his chief baskymaker that had brought home many a hunk of the old "bacon."
S. H. H. Dudley the well-known comedian and theatrical owner who used to use a trained jackass in his stage fun, has gone in for horse racing, had a string of seven "ponies" at the Toronto meet recently, one of which Struth Miss Lazie, stuK her nose under the wires in one of the races, paying her backers 24 hours for 2.
Dudleyess Lady H. has discovered that there is more money in horses than in jackasses, or at least one kind of jackass author.

First Meeting Between Old- Time Fighters Was Aboard Ship
Associated Negro Press
BY TIM McGRATH
Chicago, IL. June 14.—"Jerry Bourke, old-time newspaper man of San Francisco, for the last twenty years a resident of Chicago, dropped in and gave me a very interesting story about the first meeting between John L. Sullivan and Peter Jackson.
"The meeting occurred on the Mariosa, the big liner that used to ride the San Francisco and Australia, and on which Fitzsimons, Griff, Creedon and other great ones came to America.
"Sullivan was still on deck when Peter arrived at the wharf with the late W. W. Naughton and walked up the gangplank to say goodbye to the engineer, one of his old friends."
"The crowd immediately recognized Peter, who, by the way, did not know that Sullivan was already on board, and when Peter walked up the plank he received a great cheer, which he acknowledged with a smile and a wave of his hand.
"While Peter stood there talking, Jack Barnett, the passenger of Sullivan, came over the stairs, and then asked him if he would come on deck and be introduced to John 1.
"Peter hesitated. 'I am afraid that would not be the proper thing to do, Mr. Barnett,' he said.
"Sullivan was still sitting on the chair playing with the children. Barnett left Peter standing near the captain's cabin, walked over to Sullivan, placed his hand on his shoulder, and said:
"John I want you to meet a gentleman. Peter Jackson.' Then he motioned Peter to come ahead.
"Sullivan areas to his feet and straightened up his height, his arm in the air, the distance written all over him.
"Jackson, advanced quietly, a smile on his face, the acme of politeness, 'Peter,' said Barnett, 'most John L. Sullivan.' "Jackson put out his hand, but Sullivan, ignoring the hand, blurted out: 'I can lick any man in the world.' "And L. said, 'Peter, will fight any man in the world.' "Jackson stood for a moment, undeclared, apparently, as to what to do or say next—probably a bit ashamed." "Then he reached over and grasped Peter's still outstretched hand."

After the sudden rebuff of Mrs. Walton and herself by Philip just as the latter appeared to be on the point of yielding to their entreaties, Lucille was more firmly convinced than ever that Philip knew something about the robbery of the examination papers. Why had he taken up his hat as if he were going out, then had turned on them so furiously?
Lucile was exasperated over the whole situation. She felt that there was at least one person in Nortonville who could speak the word that would set John free. Who was that person? Was it Philip or Gaston Leigh or Prof. Bruce, or all three? She felt sure that Prof. Bruce at least knew more than he cared to tell. On the witness stand he seemed to have been shielding Philip. It was possible he had sworn to a lie over Philip's alibi, as the private detective had told her that he was unable to verify the story about Philip's being at the theatre the night of the murder. As she reasoned the facts and suspicions over and over in her mind, day in and day out, she seemed in hallucination, to arrive at the solution of the mystery. And yet it was really so far away, so baffling. Oh, that her bewildered brain were endowed with some magic power, some X-ray that could pierce the gloom and enable her to point out to the whole world the guilty one.
She decided to make an appeal to Prof. Bruce and call at his home. He received her kindly and listened with evident sympathy as she expressed her firm conviction of John's innocence and Philip's guilt. "Please help me, Prof. Bruce," she implored.
"My dear Miss Page," replied Prof. Bruce, "I am very sorry for you, but there isn't the least doubt in my mind that Mr. Walton did it. The evidence is conclusive. My only advice is that you forget Walton. He has deserved you from start to finish. Mr. McLean and I are good as caught him in the act."
"But he is innocent," persisted Luille. "You book so good and kind, professor. Won't you help me?"
"But forgetting everything else, Miss Page, how did his hair get in my wife's fingers when she was dead as he admits himself. He did it, and there's no doubt about it."
"Couldn't the police have put the hair there?" she asked.
"Why, Liam. Chicks showed it to me before Walton was brought into this room the night of the murder."
Good. France advanced a step nearer to her and continued impressively.
"Let me tell you that that hair and the fingerprints on the examination papers are incontestable proofs that Walton did the deed. No two things in the world are alike—no two human beings, no two sides of one face, no two blades of grass, no two grains of dust, no two hairs nor no two fingernails, one from the top of the other or some one else. Everything that is created by nature is different from every other thing. Duplication exists only in the realms of the artificial. This fact is nothing else convinces me absolutely of Walton's guilt." "But isn't it said that there is an exception to every rule?" stammered Lacilele. "Except in this case," said the professor authoritatively. Prof. france continued: Walton was to you and to him he was to you. He was a bright student—the brightest freshman—but after telling you about his being bearded he simply couldn't take the chances of losing."
It utterly crushed by the professor's logic she sank into the nearest chair. The fear that she had so stubbornly tumbled at last seemed to have taken complete possession of her. She wiped out.
"It isn't true. It isn't true," she sobbed. She made the denial by sheer effort of will.
"But you hurt you so sympathized proof, Bruce in a voice that did not convince her. He had knelt beside her, and was patting her shoulders.
She arose. There was something about the man that struck her as being horribly insincere. She faced him angrily.
"I don't believe you. I don't believe you," she stormed. "You do know something about this. You lied on the stand."
"I know nothing about it." he replied stiffly.
The next instant she was plead-

"I know nothing about it," he replied coldly, but I shall go down to see Lieut. Clintz and tell him what you have told me about Breckenridge. Where can I reach you? Are you still at the beauty parlor?
She answered in the affirmative. At the door he said:
"I promise to do what I can for you and will let you know."
The visit to do what I can for the visit had proved a terrible blow to Lieut. Clintz's morale. Yes, according to John's own admission Mrs. Bruce was dead when he found her.
He did it for me, she said to myself, he did it for me. Why hadn't he said that she was alive when he entered? she asked herself. How easily all could have been explained in that case. Then he might have escaped with a prison sentence. But she suddenly recalled that she had been having said so was really in his favor. Did it not prove that he was no cool, calculating murder? She recalled that this fact had not
Suddenly she became aware of a car being drawn up in the sidewalk near her. Someone called her name.
Turning she saw Gaston Leigh. He was smiling at her. Instinctively she shrugged away. How she hated him.
Ordinarily she would not have noticed him, but the thought instantly struck her that she might learn something about the murder from him.
"Good morning, Mr. Leigh," she replied with a forced smile.
"I see you are worrying too much. Lu--Miss Page. If you keep this up you'll lose the reputation being the prettiest girl in North America, said, beaming over the side of the door. He called the door, "you are on your way to Madame Jean's aren't you? Hop in and I'll take you there."
She made a move forward as if to accept; then she suddenly remembered how John might misinterpret it should it get to his ears.
"No, thank you," she refused.
She crossed the grass and came toward the car saying: "But Mr. Leigh, won't you tell me the truth as to whether you approached John—Mr. Walton—to offer him money to stay away? Please tell me it is true or not. It means so much that I swear that I can't breathe it to single soul. I just want to be satisfied for myself. Won't you please?"
"I never did," answered Leigh in a matter of fact tone, "and I'm sorry that you of all persons should believe that tale." He added lightly: "You did me a great injustice in court when you accused me before everyone on mere hearay. But I gladly forgive you. I'd forgive you anything, Lucile."
"Marielle," he continued. "You are wasting your sympathy on Walton, you are losing your good looks. I have always thought the world of you. Can't we be friends?"
"No, Mr. Leigh," she replied

jelly, "we can't be anything, and I wish you'd stop calling me on the 'phone. Let me tell you once are perfectly good enough for me. There was a time when they were slaves, when they were down, and we colored women had no one to look up to. But that day is over. We have men in our race equal in every respect to yours now. They have just as much brains and character, and are making their way in the world in spite of everything they have done in their path. Let me tell you once for all that the company of the men of my race is good enough for me." "But—'began Leigh. She cut him short." "Would you marry a colored woman?" she demanded in the same frigid tone. "Would you introduce her to your mother and sisters?" "Well, stammered Leigh, 'as for me I just as soon would. But you know what the sentiment is."
me I just as soon would. But you know what the sentence is." "Let me tell you then," she replied, "that before I'd associate with a man who wouldn't have the courage to own me in public I'd keep it." "But just it a fact that it is some of the hidden relations of life that are worth the most, are the most precious?" parried Leigh. "Absolutely not in this case. If a man really thinks highly of a woman he wants the whole world to see her and to join in admiration of her. Diamonds are for display. Don't call me up again or I'll complain to the police." Walton was a the specimen of the men who out of being bragging about "he was a better man than either you or Breckenridge. He had more brains than both of you put together."

"He was so good that both of you were afraid of him and tried to buy him off. When he wouldn't you tried to rob those purses your father gave to him. Then going to expose you if I have to come back from my grave to do it."
CHAPTER XXI
What Prof. Bruce had said in his eatin, dogmatic way about no two things being alike had returned again and again to torture her all that day. Now she would believe John innocent, now she would believe that he did it in order to keep his promise to win the prize. The thought became an obsession with her.
"Child, you'll lose your mind if you keep on like this," warned Mrs. Montgomery.
The next evening on her way home she passed the single colored barber shop in Nortonville. The question of the dissimilarity of hair had been a perennial with her, and she look inside, a thing she did not ordinarily do.
Suddenly she became aware of a large bright colored label strung on the show window. It read: "Use an ovenire. It makes the brightest cloth."
Underneath was crudely lettered the following: "Hair straightened, $1." Suddenly she recalled an elderly white woman whose dyed hair she had been curling at Madame Jean's that afternoon. She shouted, "You read the sign, "White people kink their hair while our people straighten theirs." A few steps further on a thought pricked her like a red

not needle. She thought: is it not possible that while the hair of no two persons is alike in a natural for all that the men of my race state might they not become so under artificial treatment? Might not dye and the use of heat, for instance, make hair exactly alike. The hair that had been in Mrs. Bruce's fingers was almost straight and black. Could not some one else have so straightened his hair or used some sort of dressing that would reader it like John's? Might not her belief that Philip had employed some colored man to do the deed be right after all. As the thought took shape in her mind, she murmured joyously: "He is innocent! He is innocent! Thank God." She quickened her steps to the police station. Here she told Lieut. Childs her suspicions.
He listened to her patiently, "I shall have a chemical test of the hair made tomorrow," he assured her eagerly, "I hope it turns out as you say. Miss Lage. In spite of the strong evidence against Mr. Watton, I have great trouble in believing him guilty. He has all the appearance of an old man, and I say this from thirty-two years of experience with criminals. We don't want to see an innocent man go to his death. I for one would never forgive myself. My only aim is to that the law is carried out, and that every one in Nortonville, black or white gets an even break. Ut be more than glad to do all I can."
"Tomorrow!" exclaimed Lancie, who had been waiting impatiently for him to stop, "Can't it be done tonight, now?"
"Not before tomorrow. No one is waiting now. Leave the matter to me. I attend to it myself." "Can I be present when the test is made?"
"Sure; we meet at the court house at nine tomorrow." He conducted her to the door. "The door up," he said in porting. "I believe you have a real clue at last. You have done some clever thinking and deserve to have it turn out right. That night bathe slept faintly in extinction of the morrow's decision. It was a night tiled by dreams, in some of which she heard the chemist saying it wasn't John's hair, and in others he declared it was.

Games For Younger Children
PUSS IN THE CORNER
(4 or more players)
Each player but one has a goal.
It may be a chair, desk, corner or other object. The one who has no goal goes to the opponent's player.
The boss wants a corner.
The answer is "Ask thy next door neighbor." During this time the others change goals, and the odd player tries to get one. If he has tried several times without success he may go to the center of the space and call, "All change," and all must change goals, giving him a better chance. The one left out is "2," and the game begins in before.
NOTE: This is a good game for little children. It develops during and makes them alert.

Mr. Brown—Alex, I must have the balance you owe me on those cows this morning.
Alex—(with a bowed head) You says you has to has it and I hasn't got it, and I has to has it before you can has it, and if I hasn't has it how is you gonna has it?
Mr. Brown left smiling and never asked for the balance any more.—Percy R. Wells, Harrisonburg, Va.
"My papa is a mounted policeman," said little Freddie to his mother's caller.
"Is that better than being a walking policeman?" she asked.
A farmer had a jackass for sale so he saw in the paper where a man wanted one, so he applied "Dear sir, if you want a good jackass don't forget me."—J. T. Archer, 1626 Agrig Ave.
A HANDY SHOWER
Bridal Series
Write your invitation in a jingle asking each guest to be something in the line of old linens that can be used for cleaning. Other gifts such as a clothes-pin bag filled with pins, an ironing blanket, iron-holders, bread cloth, jelly bags, several squares of old sheeting for window rags and several worsted woolen may be brought. Each guest is asked to read an interesting article, which may be humorous, on household economics. Place card decorated with clothes-pin bags are clever. Refreshment: Carmel ice cream and baby fingers.
A Little Praise Helps
(Try this on the erring)
By big compliment came tripping along about 2 years ago, when I was still in my teens. It was undeserved, but you said nothing about arriving that kind. Our old class had laid in those days. We played cards, smoked, drank hard cider, read dime novels and used profanity. We were decidedly "bad."
A woman's organization in our town had been using the stage in the old discarded town hall for a meeting places—had fitted it up with a table, chairs, etc. Supporting mind in our bunch perceived the idea of using the place between club lines for a card room, club tables until one day the club pulled off a special taping. They forgot to notify us and we just had time to hide ourselves in a little dark dressing room at the back of the stage.
The ladies were very indignant when they found some ashes and a card of two, and proceeded to exchange casual remarks about the rising generation. That is when I got not only a compliment but an eye-opener. One kindly voice wondered why young men can't be like Johnny. She said. He's a regular gentleman, and always so nice when you meet him on the street. Another woman said, "Yes; he un surely has a right to be proud of him."
Well, sir, the resolution passed unanimously. I was surprised I had supposed for a long time that it was my superior was alone that was keeping me in the closet; it was following in the closet, shunting and kicking me on the shins, but for some reason I could see nothing funny about it. In fact, I swore to myself before we got out in the sunshine again that I would cut that lunch and from then on be what that old lady had said I was—gone. I—and live so well—past the best chance compilations which might come my way. And I have tried with some success to live up to that resolution I am still out of the pen, anyway.
Why Bessie Tarried
Mamma had sent little Bessie to the pantry to fetch some skiffy fly paper. She was gone a long time, and finally the mother called: "Bessie, hurry with the fly paper, Have you got it?" There was a pause, and then this correct voice:
out.
No, mumma, the fly paper's got me.
But—were both coming!"
MAYBE
The patient was undergoing all the tortures, conceivable in a dentists chair. I thought you said this tooth was filled till he didn't ask.
"No, it has not," came the feeble answer.
"But, there are traces of gold on my instrument," the doctor persisted.
Still more feebly came the patient's reply. "Perhaps you have struck my back collar button."

"Oh! come in off those bricks baby" a young boy said, "before you have toothache."
"Mamma, I have no teeties in my feet," the child exclaimed. "Pearl Gray, 297 N. Stricker street."
My aunt who lived in the country, always kept a little store. One day she came to the city to visit us and brought her little niece who was 18 years old. She said to her niece, if she did not be good she would not give her any cake. So her little niece said "You cannot give me any cake because you forgot to bring your store with you."—Miss Elanche Henry, 40 Russell street, Mt. Winnipeg, ML.
My little brother 4 years old came in yesterday from playing all day by his hands. He handed his hands to his chow. When we were all seated at the supper table my mother exclaimed "William, your hands aren't washed to your chow."
"Mother," he exclaimed crossly
"you don't eat with your elbows."

Knocks on Women
Women are queer things, no doubt about that; they hate to be thin and they hate to be fat. You can't seem to suit them however you try. But there is one thing about them that everyone knows a woman is not dressed till she powders her hair for me? Women might be to popular with the opposite sex even at the ex-husband's modesty.
Most women talk a man to death and wonder why he never calls again.
Most women think it perfectly all right for them to walk down the street or go to the show with a man, other than the one they call "their man." But let that said "their man" walk down the street or go to the show with another girl—well, he's in for a bowling out or a jitting.
Women dress up the first few months of their early married life and have a winnow smile for their husbands when they come home; but as soon as they become settled women their dressing becomes shack, and they smile frown, and they wonder why their husbands prefer the club or other outside amusement.
Women love to talk about other women but let some one talk about them. Oh boy!
Some women would rather have their right hand out of them to have their neighbor on do them in stylish clothes.—Experience.
Tested Beauty Hints
I have found this beauty plant practical and easy to follow: In the morning bathe the face in cold water. At night steam it. To do this fill a basin with hot water. Place the face over the basin and cover both head and basin with a towel. After steaming the face bathe it with very cold water. Face is better, but can not always be obtained.
A good cleansing cream it very useful but not necessary, although it is especially good for a dry face in hot weather.
I have freckles, but I do not use freckle cream. In the summer when the sun is and wind are so hot, I use lemon juice to keep the freckles from becoming so dark, but I don't try to get rid of them.
In the summer I frequently rub a piece of raw potato or cream over my face. This keeps it cool and smooth. The same treatment applies also to hands, arms and neck.

Siki Sails June 22
African Fighter Changes His Mind About Coming
To America
Paris, June 10.—Siki, the battling Senegalese, has decided to abandon his bout with Nilles here on July 8, cast off my managers who may be believing they have a claim on him here and set so for America. As he explains it, "After Crijully's victory I see a great future for me in America and on June 22 I am off for the country of the dollars."
"But how about your match with Morelle here next Saturday?" he was asked by The World correspondent.
"I got to fight," said Siki, "or I will be disqualified."
"But suppose Morelle heats you; then you'll have no standing in America."
"Oh, yes, I will; that won't hurt my reputation in America. Besides, haven't I knocked out everybody who stood up against me—Journee, Nilles and Carpentier—and you don't think a little man like Morelle can get anywhere with me!"
Siki intends to put himself in the hands of Criqui's manager, Eudeline. Siki says: "Eudeline is getting on there."
BLACK SOX 'KALSO' SOUTH PHILLY NINE
Carter, Recruit Hurler, Holds
Visitors To Four Scattered Hits and Locals
Take Opener 4-0
ALSO GRAB NIGHTCAP
Stage Swatfest In Curtain Tilt, Homers by Wilson and Ramirez Featuring
Having dropped three games to the South Philly semi-pro nine this season, on the latter's lot, the Black Sox got the "brethren" in their own back yard last Sunday and administered a twin killing.
They did more than this, they added insult to injury by sending Carter, a recruit hurler, making his first appearance in a Sox uniform, to the mound in the opener, who doubtless having heard the Sox's tale of woe and being extremely tender-hearted, tipped the old k狄mine container over the visitors. Carter displayed a varied set of offerings seen here for something. He seemed to "hay everything" that a good pitcher needs. He had 'em breaking on either side of the plate, had 'em slowly messing around in the air on their way to the plate, and when they weren't doing this they were dipping down at the toes of the batter. Carter received a great ovation in the eighth when, with two men down and a runner on third base, he fanned Leid, the visitors' head-of
Four hits, one in the first, fourth seventh and ninth innings were all that Carter "gave away"; issued two free tickets and sent eight men back to the dugout on strikes. However, he was backed by brilliant fielding on the part of his teammates among his hitters, for a double between Smith, Poles and Wilson in the order named. Poles was guilty of the only Sox miscue, but this was almost unavoidable. The visitors also had one chalked up against them, Savin second-sacker, being the guilty party. Flynn, who chucked them at the Sox batters in this game, hurled nine bingles, he kept them pretty well scattered.
The Six scored one each in the first and second frames, and two in the seventh. Other features of the game were: a great one-hand catch by Poleys, who stuck out his gloved hand and took the ball at the ground; Wilson's one-hand grab of a pop-foul off Gauls' hat at the ball stands, and a one-hand catch of Wilson's drive to center by Gerner.
NIGHTCAP A SWATFEST
The nightcap found the Sox running wild with their old war clubs. Edwards started on the hill for the S.P. to do, if possible, what Flynn had failed to do; hold the Sox. In the fifth, the going had gotten so bad that the Sox had been tending the initial hassock, had O. Sced and took up the burden in the dishpan. The score was now standing 7-6 with the visitors leading. In the sixth the Sox advanced to a one-run lead by chalking up two and in the seventh scored six more. The visitors didn't score after the fourth, but the Sox recruit, was started in the nightcap at nightway in the third on account of wildness, Mitchell being sent in.
Fast fielding again featured the Sox's work, with two more double plays being made. Cooper figured in one of these before his exit. The other was Wilson and Ramirez, the compers so getting two doubles, and three-base clowns by Poles and Hall. All, the locals garnered fifteen bingles in this game to nine by the Clarke, recruit receiver, formerly of the Richmond Giants, caught the last two innings of the second game. Keem, recruit out-gardener, played left field for the Sox and starred in the nightcap by pilfering three runs a steel home being worked in the sixth frame between him and Miller.
Next Sunday, the Colonial Ice Cream Company nine of Philadelphia will be the opponent.

David Walsh writing from New York is certain that the "Wills-Dempsey championship match will never take place." We don't accept Mr. Walsh as a prophet, nevertheless, he offers one or two reasons for his deduction that reason is that the public believes that a "deserving challenger is soon to be produced." Meaning, apparently, Firpo, the South American. Wills' absence from the limelight has given the "white hope" dubs a chance to push him from his place as the first in line for a crack in the ice of which he is bowing away in his Hurlem flat, is bearing fruit; for which nobody's blame but him and his manager Paddy Mullins. Still Dempsey says that after Gibbons Harry will have his chance—"Who is the bar?"
Gerald Allen of the University of Pittsburgh scratched his name on the walls of that institution on Decoration Day in the dual meet between Pitt and Geneva College by lowering Pitt's record for the half mile which had stood for seven years. He was 1:58 2:52 which was about two seconds faster than the former mark.
Madison Briscoe, who was reported to have jumped 21 feet 8 inches in the Storer College meet as told in the AFRO last week, writes to correct the report, stating that he was one inch, and refers us to the Storer College officals for confirmation.
We are glad to make the correction, Briscoe. Keep on jumping.
Joe Walcott, than whom no greater fighter at his weight ever lived and who was a terror of the weakerweights and heavies too for that matter, a decade ago, was arraigned in a police court in Boston, his home town, recently on the charge of selling liquor, unlawfully.
"The former" Black Demon" as he was dubbed in his fighting days, claimed that he was ill and "broke" as an excuse for his act, and was put on probation for six months.
BASEBALL SIDELIGHTS
Five new men were in Sox uniforms, they were; Carter, Cooper, Clarke and Ramirez, former Richmond Giant players, the first two hurlers. Clarke catcher and Ramirez outfielder and Kemp outfielder formerly of Chapple Johnson's All-Stars.
With the exception of Cooper who started the nightcap but gave way to Mitchell, the newcomers made a fine showing. Carter's feat in blanking the South Phillies has been detailed in another column. Ramirez looked good in center and scintillated with the willow, getting two hits in the first game in the second, and three in five times up the hits in the latter game being a homer and a double.
Kemp gave evidence of being nifty with the stick he was put at the head of the batting order. In his first two trips he fanned. This appeared to be the result of instructions to "wait out" the pitcher. On his third trip he crushed into the first ball pitched for a meat single to right. He got another to the second game and addition showed himgressiveness on the paths, pifering three bases of the four that were filched in this session, Mitchell got the other.
. . . .
Clarke, didn't have a chance to display much ability as a receiver, as he worked only two inning of the second game, but what little he did show appeared to advantage, and doubtless he will prove a success for the team ever-smiling hard working Rojo. In his one trip to the plate he smacked the pellet for a sizzling single.

Games still to be played (Eastern District are: Roland Park vs 113 and 102; (Western District) 112 vs 110, 112 vs 109, and 110 vs 116.
With four games yet to be played in the Afro Public School League, speculation is rife as to which school will win the schoolboy flag.
Kleary is keen and excitement among the leaders is more intense than ever before.
In the Western District School 106 has missed out School 101 for a leadershiporship by two games. School 105 has a dandy team and will give a good account of itself when it meets the winners of the Western District for the championship. Robald Park's two games with 113 and 102 will not affect the standing in this district.
In the Western District, the championship is not decided by a long shot. Here School 109 has won two of the leadership, having won two and four games respectively without a single loss. The game between these two teams on Monday was called off on account of wet grounds. School 109 must beat 112 to win the championship. The battle is apparently between these two schools. A victory by either may make it district champion School 102 has lost and if back strikes the leader has a chance to tie both for first place.
As soon as the district championships are settled, the leaders of the Eastern and Western Leagues will get together in the battle of the year for the city championships. The teams will bring crowds of school fans, and will unobtrusively be the most interesting of those played this season.

TOWSON SCHOOL WINS BALTIMORE COUNTY MEET
THIS YEAR'S MEETS BEST
Interest and Attendance Surpassed That of Former Years, Says Director
Towson School, with a total of 52 points, won the Baltimore county annual track and field meet at Drublin Hill Park last Saturday. Catonsville School was second with 72.
While a number of the schools of the county did not participate, the meet proved to be quite a successful and enthusiastic one drawing quite a large attendance of spectators, parents and teachers from the vicinity of the respective schools.
A total of 408 participants took part in the various events and hung up marks that compared favorably with the records made by the best performers in the other county meets this year.
Mr. Pittman, under whose direction the county meets are held, said that during the five years that the meets have been conducted among the colored schools, interest has steadily grown, and that this year, the best attended both in regard to participants and spectators, ever held, enthusiasm being at a high pitch practically everywhere.
From 1,500 to upward of 5,000
spectators have witnessed the events
this year, he said, while the partici-
pants have in some counties out-
numbered those of the white meets
when the ratio of population is tak-
en into account.

Flowers is Best Middleweight
By James J. Corbett
This will introduce Theodore ("Tiger") Flowers, of Atlanta.
Some folks know him as "Bounging Bengal." "The Whistest Black Man Alive." "The Tiger of the Prize Ring."
About a half hundred of his once rivals know him as the hardest hitting, fastest and cleverest Negro middleweight in harness today.
"Philadelphia" Jack O'Brien was Flowers' tutor, Jack took him in charge in Philadelphia back in 1915, schooled him in the intricacies of the sport and turned him loose with the advice:
"Go get yourself a good manager, you will climb to a mighty high jump in pagilam."
"Flowers, who is a southwind and is 6 feet 1 inch tall, went back to Atlanta and hooked up with Walk Miller. Since then these things have happened:
He has never been defeated by a middleweight.
He dotted out to the Jamaica Kids training partner for Jack Dempsey, an unnumerable hearing.
He knocked out one man three
killed in the same night. Different times in the night. Different times in the night.
Possesses the middleweight and the light heavyweight championships of Mexico.
Is the middleweight champion of the South and the Southeast.
Technically holds the Australian light heavyweight championship due to his victory over Tom King from the Antipodes.
Has accumulated a fair bankroll and invested in real estate in the vicinity of Atlanta, and is also the owner of quite a few small plantations.
In a grape light with Andy (Kid) Patner he beat Palmer so badly that ville, wom. F. Johns, Towson, 2nd., W. Colen, Towson, 3rd., J. Norser, Towson, 4th distance: 120.

the latter sat in his corner and cried for twenty minutes after the light.
Ad Thatcher, of Toledo, who assisted in the promotion of the Dempsey-Willard light there in 1919, and who has seen Flowers in action, declares:
If anybody ever can influence the ball to get into the same ring with Flowers I have $5,000 to bet that Flowers wins."
Olivia Pecord, referee for the Dempsey-Willard match, and Matt Hinkel, the Cleveland ring official, chants this way:
"Flowers is a ring sensation. He is in there working all the time, hitting, hitting, rushing, tearing, tearing. He hits with both hands from any angle, never backs an inch, and fair and fair a fighter as ever lived.
KNOCKED OUT BROWN
"Not so long ago he took on Kid Brown, light-heavyweight champion of Mexico. He knocked out Brown in the first round, whereupon the cash customers yelled that they had not received a real run for their money. So the promoters jumped into the ring and asked flowers and towels for the money. The Flowers then knocked out Brown in the second round, and again was to go on with the fight. He said he was willing—and so was Brown.
"In the third Flowers rattled a succession of punches off Brown's body and head—and down went the Mexican for the third time. He was carried his corner and after a few rounds he retreated for the fourth round. Flowers stepped out ready to go ahead, but Brown leaped over the ropes and told the crowd that insultus as he had been knocked out three times, it seemed to him that he had enough for one night. That ended the show.
Other has been parking Flowers in the South and Southwestern sections of the U. S. A., but he won't do it much longer.
"The boy is a freak fighter and he struck me as a phienon when I first saw him. Each new battle he has waged has increased this opinion. But I've been keeping him out of New York and other Atlantic sea-bed towns until such time as he gained the needed experience. He was applauded the Jamaica Kid Kid Norfolk fought Lee Anderson and about fifty other tough ones, I figured he's about ready to do his stuff before an Eastern crowd. When he does cut loose there, these blase Easterners are going to see the most sensational Negro fighter since Joe Walcott's time.
GRAYS WIN IN A ROW

The annual city-wide track and field meet of the colored schools will be held at Druid Hill Park Friday on the football field. The meet this year is expected to be the biggest and the most hotly contested ever held.
The meet last year was said to be the best ever held up to that time. Interest has been growing apace in athletic sports in the meantime, and thus in the nature of things, this year's meet should exceed in interest and enthusiasm all previous annual meets.

HILLDALE WINS WITHOUT LLOYD
Star Shortstop Ill, But Phillies Score One Big Inning and Win
Darby, Pa., June 9—Ed. Bolden's Hilldale Club made enough runs in one inning to defeat the Crane Ice Cream Company team here today at Hilldale Park, the final score being nine to six. In the fourth inning, thirteen of the Hilldale players stepped to the plate, and nine of them scored. Warfield and Stevens getting two hits a piece in hits frame, the latter having the retirement. This inning included the retirement of a thorn in the side of the Hilldale players for some time. Stevens, who played short in the place of Captain Lloyd, who is ill, distinguished himself both in the field and at the bat, personally accounting for live outs, he making all the outs in the 7th inning, the second of which was himminger, he making across the left field touch, and hearing the ball on dead run.
Script Lee on the mound for Hilldale, kept Crane well in hand throughout, except the sixth and the eighth, when they scored all their runs, and if Carr had held on to them, they may have never scored, as four runs were pushed over after this miscue.
In the 4th inning, Hilldale bunched five singles, three doubles and a hit batter, for 9 runs, they also executing the squeeze play successfully.

MANAGERS ROW OVER
ETHIOPIAN PLAYERS
Attachment Issued Against Ethiopian Art Theatre Prohibiting Showing of "Salome" in City of Norfolk.
By J. A. Jackson
The Ethiopian Art Players who went to Philadelphia after their brief stay on Broadway were again at the Lafayette Theater in New York for the the previous the company was idle, the victims of troubles between their promoter and the Robert Levy interests who had booked the show into Norfolk for a week at the Attucks Theater.
It seems that Mr. Levy and his associates who had booked the attraction into the Frazee Theater on 42nd street, New York, had also advanced considerable money toward financing the players at different times. According to Mr. Levy, the director knowing that the Levy obligations which are alleged to total $1600, should be collected in Norfolk, had Mrs. T. Anderson who has been with the attraction as a press representative, attaching the plea of the plaintiff to provide the move to Norfolk.
It is reported that Messrs. Levy and O'Neil indulged in fist-cuffs in the Quaker City over the matter. At any rate, after the week layoff, during which the Attucks remained dark, the show was re-assembled in New York as the property of Mrs. Anderson.
The performers, all of them being of the original cast, seem to have been satisfied as to finances at present, but two weeks ago there was some long faces over back pay and people who appeared in some productions more than Chip, Wypan" and "Salone" remain unpaid. Among those are Edna Lewis Thomas, Monty Hawley and the two Mr. Guys, father and son. Solomon Bruce, who plays "Jokannan" in "Salome" says he will resume his duties at the Chicago Post Office by 25. It is unfortunately capable of artists should be the victims of amateur management.

Prohibition and the Law.
After all, the most potent danger with which this’
country is faced as a result of the whiskey problem is not
the damage done by whiskey traffic itself, but by the spirit
of lawlessness it is creating.
Now comes the Legislature of Wisconsin following
close on the heels of New York in setting itself outright
against the constituted authority of the Federal Govern-
ment. Whether or not we agree with prohibition there
can be no doubt in the minds of any right-thinking man
or woman that the wanton desecration of law following
in its wake constitutes the gravest danger and menace
pthat we have faced since:the Civil War.
...> Let-the South continue to annul the Fourteenth and
Fifteenth amendments and the West and North the Eigh-

law may become a scrap of paper, and then God help

Police Officers and Crime.
* Tt has been pointed out in these columns that the
system of making police promotions based on the number
of ‘arrests and convictions often leads unscrupulous of-
ficers to manufacture “evidence” against innocent men
and women.
Last Thursday Lawrence Walker, a local colored
-man, wrote a letter from his death-bed confessing to a
burglary for which John C. King, another colored man,
is.now serving time. King states that he pleaded guilty
upon the advice of police.
Since the first of the year there have been five cases
dismissed in the criminal court where the apparently
“cooked evidence” of the police fell down. In a recent
éase an alleged record was brought against a man who
proved satisfactorily to the court that no such record
existed.
It is highly important that every crime is punished
according to the law. But while the men in the Police
Department as a rule seem fair and just, there is no
doubt but that there are some unscrupulous enough to go
“to almost any means to prove the case against their man.
Another dangerous practice is that of giving im-
munity to one of a group to testify aginst another. Early
\in this year some white men picked up a colored girl in a
‘ear, and. while joy-riding ran down a white woman.
(Under the influence of the police this girl implicated an
‘innocent colored man as driver of the death car. When
the case was tried before Judge Stein the girl testified
that she had lied because the police told her to, promising
that a charge of larceny then against her would be
dropped.
Suppose this woman had not changed her lie. Even
as it is, the white men responsible for that death have
never beencaught. = |
