Department of Justice Takes Note of Threats To Burn Buildings To the Ground DR. MOTON IN NEW YORK Moton Family Leaves With Mrs. Booker Washington and Dr. Kenney Washington, D. C., July 12. (—Special) Federal agents of the department of Justice have been sent to the new government hospital in Tuskegee war museum at Tuskegee Institute, Alabama, following parade of the Ku Klux Klan there last week. White residents and alleged Klansmen threatened violence to Dr. Moton and his staff of teachers and promised to burn the buildings it colored doctors and nurses were sent there to care for the sick and wounded. A special investigator sent to Tuskegee last week reported everything quiet. Montgomery, Ala., July 13.—A reign of terror exists at Tuskegee Institute. There has never been anything like it in the history of the institution. So critical is the state of affairs, that a number of the highest officials of the institution have been forced to flee for their lives. Among those who have been forced to leave the institute grounds under threat are: Dr. Kennedy, one of the best known surgeons in the country, and for 21 years superintendent of the Andrew Memorial Hospital on the institute grounds. instructor. He and his family had planned to spend the summer in Boston as usual, but they hastened their departure. When he will return to Tuskegee, it ever, Dr. Kenney would not say. He was given 24 hours to leave the grounds by whites who heard that he" had been mentioned as superintendent of the new hospital. Ihr Moton In X. Y. Dr. R. R. Moton, who has been away from the institution since the trustees meeting in New York, has not returned to Tuskegee at this writing, and has been urged by his closest friends, because ofedy rumors about, to remain away. This program does not suit him, however, and despite the warnings he is determined to return to the school. Mrs. Moton and the children left under advice a few days ago. So grave is the situation at Tuskegee, according to reports from Motin Chisum, that officials of the school do not feel safe even in sending a telegram to Dr. Moton. Mrs. Dooker T. Washington, wife of the founder and former principal of Tuskegee, is among the number who have fled following threats. Little was it dreamed when Tuskegee Institute officials gave of their good land to the erection of a hospital for the preservation of life under Christian principles and government backing, that it would ultimately lead to such a state of affairs as now exists. Commander Steiner, of the Alabama American Legion, of Ku Klux sympathy, is said to be one of the chief antagonists of the government program for the government hospital. He is aided by the Governor of Alabama and recently by the notorious Senator Hoffin, of the same State, who boasts of having shot a colored man in the streets of Washington more than twenty years ago. Senator Vekorwood, who aspires to be president of the United States, is just re-trained, and as yet, has not publicly expressed himself on the hospital difficulty. Attitude Against Southern Policy The whole attitude of the little group of Southern white politicians against permitting a colored personnel to be established at veterans hospital, is entirely against the well-known and long established policy of white Southeners on the subject of segregation. The indicated Negro Pressions that scores of leading white people of Alabama are bitterly opposed to the determined efforts of this small group of whites to keep out colored doctors and management in the hospital. These people have feared to express their opinions publicly. A number of the Alabama newspapers, however, and newspapers in other Southern States, have spoken out boldly that the colored personnel away from the hospital. The State Legislature passed a resolution Wednesday protesting against a colored personnel at the hospital. What Hines Says— Washington, D. C., July 13. Director Hines in his office again following a trip of investigation to Tuskegee, declare that he will strive to effect some compromise. TENNIS CHAMP HERE Edgar G. Brown, of Chicago, national colored champion tennis player, was in Washington yesterday and will be here Saturday.

Marcus Garvey, the greatest champion of our race. His case is going on appeal, and it will cost many thousands of dollars to carry it through. We are running an appeal and further defense fund to give our leader all the protection possible. For that purpose, we send you herein enclosed a collecting list for the fund. Please go around your friends and others and collect on the list for the fund and same with whatever you have collected in the next two weeks. Sus Garver Was Framed In another printed letter enclosed, Mr. Garvey is said to be in jail because he was "framed" by his enemies. "Friends" are urged to make their contributions as large as possible. This letter reads in part:— PARTI:— If you do not know, you must have heard of *Marcus Garvey* the champion of the rights of the Negro race. This man who has given his all for the service of our race has been "framed up" by wicked enemies and opponents of his work and has been convicted of a crime of which he is not guilty. He has been given the maximum proof of five years as a further proof of the spite and hate engendered against him. We know he is innocent; we know suffering and sacrifice for the cause he loves, and for that we are raising a FUND for his appeal and further defense. Please write down on attached statement sheet a donation to this FUND. Make it as large as you can.

COLORED JOCKEY IS HERO IN GAY PAREE Forty-Year-Old Kentuckian Feted By Crowds on Street Paris, France, July 7.—The hero of the Paris crowds last week was James Winkfield, American colored jockey, who piloted Bahadur, a French bred horse owned by a Russian, to victory here last week. Winkfield flashed across the white winner in the President of the Republic classic race, worth 10,000 francs, paying his backers 14 to 1.

Dry Agents Claim Dr. Alexander Terrell Used Counterfeit Labels On Liquor PHARMACY IS CLOSED Druggist Believed To Have Fled To Virginia With Following an investigation by agents of the Prohibition Department, a warrant has been issued for Dr. Alexander Terrell, proprietor of Terrell's Cut-Rate Pharmacy, 1641 Pennsylvania Avenue. This investigation, which is said to be the second one made in which the whiskey account of Dr. Terrell was out of balance, revealed not only a shortage of whiskey issued to him on his permit, but developed the more serious probability that he will face a charge of using counterfeit labels and refilling bottles with spurious and low proof whiskey. According to agents of the department who made the investigation, 74 bottles of this spurious liquor was found in the drug store. Some of this stuff had been adulterated. It is said, until it was as low as 19 proof. The penalty for tampering with government labels or having counterfeit labels in one's possession may run to a maximum of ten years in the Federal Penitentiary, according to attaches at the office of the U.S. District Attorney. DR. THERRELL IN VIRGINIA Acquaintances of Dr. Terrell state that he and his family left the city on June 13th for Suffolk, Va., where he planned to enter the drug business. The Pennsylvania Avenue Pharmacy open for five days ago but closed and such accounts remain are being held for creditors, it is said. A large whiskey concern which is alleged to have supplied the Terrell Pharmacy with whiskey is a large creditor. A warrant has been issued for Dr. Terrell and agents from thehibition Department state that he will be brought back and prosecuted if he does not return voluntarily. A brother-in-law, Hiner, is said to have heard from him this week. IN BUSINESS TEN YEARS Dr. Terrell, who was a graduate of the Pharmaceutical Department of Howard University in the class of 1909, came to Baltimore in 1912 and went into the drug business as a partner in McNeil and McNeil and Terrell Carey and Pressman Streets. In 1914 this partnership was dissolved and Dr. Terrell went into business for himself. Once before agents from the prohibition department declared they found short stock in Dr. Terrell's whiskey accounts but on this occasion he was let off with a warn- MOVED BY ANDERSON Several weeks ago big auto trucks were backed up to the store and removed quietly all the stock as well as the household goods of the doctor, who occupied a flat on the second floor. A reporter from the AFRO discovered that Harry Anderson, Division and McMechen Streets, had done the moving, and Mr. Anderson stated that he had been required to remove four truck loads to remove all the goods to Light Street Wharf, where it was shipped to Norfolk, Va. No whiskey was in the effects shipped it was said. The job is said to have taken the better part of one day. FAILED IN BUSINESS To many of his friends the news of Dr. Terrell's departure came as a shock. There had been no previous hints of his failure in business. Both he and his wife were known as hard workers. Several months ago he suffered a rare break-in during long hours and steady work. Mrs. Terrell not only cared for him, but waited on customers in the store, doing everything except the filling of prescriptions. Warner T. McGuinn declared today he had received notice to set as counsel for the missing pharmacy Mr. McGuinn said that it did not know where he is, nor had received any notice of the action of the prohibition authorities against his client. Two Women and Two Men Arrested Following Alleged Drug Orgy in Dallas St. House Narcotic Squad Believe Drug in Boxes Labeled "Epsom Salts." Two men and two women were arrested Wednesday night in one of the most sensational dope raids ever made in this city when police and the Narcotic squad sweoped down on 129 S. Dallas street, and 236 S. Spring street. As a result the following were brought before Commissioner Supplie Thursday morning charged with illegally possessing narcotic drugs: WILLIAM GILPIN, 129 S. Dallas street, alleged dope peddler. "DOT" ALLEN, 1079 Park avenue. MRS. BERTHA VERNEY, 236 S. Spring street. MRS. MARGARET SLEMMER, 229 S. Spring street. For some time these two places have been under surveillance as alleged dope dens and after weaving a net of circumstantial evidence the police and narcotic agents sweoped down on the places Wednesday night. William Glipson was arrested as he left the Dallas street house and the other three who made their escape as the officers were forcing entrance into the place. The Spring street address was the Spring street address. So securely the alleged dens barricaded with furniture and other things that the officers found it necessary to force an entrance into the second-story balcony. This was done only after breaking a heavy padlock. Evidences of recent orglues and it is believed that more than $3,000 worth of various forms of the dope was found. Some of this was Still under the influence of the drug, it was said Mrs. Bertha Verney, "Dot" Allen and Mrs. Margaret Stemmers were found on a bed at 236 S. Spring street. Under the bed was found a match box filled with the stuff. The extent to which the spread of the drug evil in Baltimore makes this successful raid of what is believed to be a central distribution place of great importance, the officers believe. TO CONSIDER COLORED HELP AT CROWNSVILLE Mr. William L. Marbury told the AFRO-AMERICAN yesterday he would look into the feasibility of having colored help at the State hospital for the Colored Insane, at Crownville, where recently a Polish guard, beat William H. Murray, an ex-school principal to death. "This has never been suggested before," said Mr. Marbury to the reporter, "but I will investigate the matter and see whether we can use colored help out there. No doubt we will do so."

The Klu Klux are the less dishonorable because they made plain their plans by the parade. Invents Electric Bulb Washington, July 12.—(K. I. F. Service) George Washington Turer, age 52, living at 1411 L. Stre. N. W., this city has invented an candlescent electric lamp, which in time more pronounced that, indeed, that when it is burned out a new filament may be inserted, and the same lamp used again. Chicago, Hl. July 11—An O. K. from Charles M. Schwab, the white steel master, is not to be frown upon. In this instance it is unique, and one that will attract considerable attention. He has been put on the coming marriage of Joseph Ray, of Bettlehem, Pa. to Mrs. Lena Dougault Holt, of Chicago, July 29th in this city. Ray, for more than a score of years, has been the official organizer of Charles M. Schwab and the chief officers of the great Bettlehem Steel Corporation. He has direct charge of the arrangements for the extensive travels of Mr. Schwab and fidient man of his official organization. Whether in Bettlehem or New York City, or other offices of the company, "Joe Ray" is ostensible and given the open door passage. When he became known some time later, he attended an assemblage Hymen's altar, naturally Mr. Schwab and other officials became cerned. They wished to know per- interested, pay more, the were consonantly the fair lady whom Ray had picked out and walked with Roof of Hymen along his pathway. Consequently, during a recent visit East, accompanied by some friends, arrangements were made, for Mrs. Holt to be invited to New York City home. The distinguished American was greatly impressed with Mrs. Holt, who is noted for her delightful personality and unusual musical attunements, and without musical attunements, and without hospitalization. To make the "enership" complete, Mrs. Holt and friends continued on to Bethlehem, where the general offices of the company are located, and which is to be her future home, and there she will all meet with her friends. To K. to the matrimonial match. Because of Mrs. Holt's activity in musical circles, she will be greatly missed in Chicago. She is the widow of the late George Holt, who left her a very neat fortune, and it is not to worry about the approach of the wolf at the door. Following the marriage they will sail from New York City on August 4th, for Paris, and many other festivities. It is not to worry about to make a honeymoon as charming as the magazine stories. HITS PROFESSOR FUDGE HITS PROFESSOR FUDGE Atlantic City Member of Baltimore Assembly Calls His Efforts Pure "Tomboolery" To the Editor: Having read in the issue of July 6th, an article by (Professor) Fudge under the title of "The Baltimore Assembly" saying "The Baltimore Assembly is in Baltimore and is resurrected or transmigrated a house in Atlantic City." This is not an answer or refutation of anything that (Professor) Fudge under the title of "The Baltimore Assembly in Atlantic City, but to dissipate any thought of an adverse opinion of the Baltimore Assembly of Atlantic City, may customarily read such nonfiction. All that is required to become a member of the Baltimore Assembly of Atlantic City is to be a male republication, to have been born in Baltimore, or Maryland and to have come to Baltimore before the age of 5 years. There is no need of being recommended by "Greenheart and endorsed by Biddle Allen." The object of the Baltimore Assembly is to promote and elevate the Mental, Moral, Social and Civic conditions of its members. You can help by grading about the Baltimore Assembly in Atlantic City. Permit me to digress for a moment, Mr. Gen. H. Murphy, one of the most active members of the Atlantic City recently paid the Assembly a visit and took the opportunity to address us and new-old acquaintance ces. He commended us for our worthy object; but he also beamed with pride. Fudge like many more spoke about that which he knows nothing, when he attempts to cast aspersion on the Baltimore Assembly when residing in their home town but the entree in some of the best homes in Baltimore.—Fudge is—to be both or burgle work—so the community of the attempt to criticize and has proved himself somewhat usinine and we are sure his transformation will be a house.

BISHOP BROOKS 58 YEARS OLD Moves Into Fine New Episcopal Residence In Monrovia SCHOOL COMPLETED 200 Pupils Begin Studies In New $100,000 Structure Monnoria, Liberia, W. Africa. June 15—While supervising work of construction on the new school building, Bishop W. Sampon Brooks was surprised by 150 laughing, cheering students who had learned it was the Bishop's 55th birthday.

Sampon Brooks, Dr. Solomon P. Hood, American minister. Bishop W. Sampon Clark, Miss Nora F. Taylor and Mr. and Mrs. Caswell Crews. Mrs. Norm F. Taylor, the noted American evangelist of Chicago, who has been here several months to secure an Episcopal residence for the African Methodist Episcopal Church, has the handsome residence of the Hon. Walt F. Walker, formerly secretary of public education here. While the purchase price has been withheld, it is known that the property is conservatively valued. Walt F. Walker has had many offers from European residing here, but has steadfastly declined to sell to other than colored people. The property covers nearly an acre of ground and is finally laid out with tennis courts, flower gardens and the like. Brooks W. Brooks occupied the new residence early in life. Mr. Walker, it is said, will move to America, where he will engage in business.

ROOSEVELT "The Flirt" The best week's program that the Roosevelt has shown for the past several weeks will be unfolded at that house next week, beginning on Monday, when "The Flirt" will be offered as the special feature. This picture is a screen version of the story of the same tale from the pen of poet Bob Benton, the famed author who will be remembered as the author whose stories furnished the frame work of such screen successes as "Clarence," in which the late beloved Wallace Reid was starred, "Penrod," and "Alice Adams." Unid famennt, one of the best loved of screen actresses, will enact the title role in "The Flirt." This picture will be continued Tuesday. Wednesday and Thursday, the special feature will be "Adam and Eve," a screen version of the stage play of the same title. This drama, despite its title, is not based on the novel, episode. It deals with the social life of the present day and the story tells of a wealthy, father who, driven nearly to distraction by the extravagances of his family, accepts the suggestions of a young man who offers a scheme to bring them to their senses. The young man's chief battle with the grown daughter has a decided will of her own. Beautiful Marion Was in Flower" fame, plays the leading role. Friday, Catherine Macdonald, the prize-winning beauty, will be seen in "Trust Your Wife," a tense drama of the jeubabies, mistrusts and bickering of married life, and Saturday, "The Drama of Fate," starring Dorothy Dalton, the little screen spitfire. The management also invites particular attention to the fine drama which will be shown Friday and Saturday in the week, mannequin, "The Forgotten Law," a tense drama whose theme deals with the unchanging law of retribution that follows when one defies the golden rule.

The chief comedy work is offered by Alonzo, (Tadhüle) Johnson, a young comic who is showing rapid improvement in his work, and my Parker, one of the best "singles" business when he cares to "work." Parker offered a monologue that was witty and drew innumerable guffaws and then "held up the show" with his eccentric dancing that drew four bows and an oncure. The next outstanding feature of the show which scored heavily with the Crowd Monday evening was the fine singing of Madam Carroll, who rendered with fine distinction of voice "Dear Old Southland," which drew an ovation, and a jazz number that she put over with extreme beauty of voice, discarding the usual singing method for that oncure. Miss Kirk and "Tadduke" were merely received in several song pumps and dancing duets, while Elmer Flog in a "straight" handled it with his usual cleverness and won a hand for his singing. Other members of the company are Martin Simms, the little Baltimore flapper, who sang nicely. Elie May Moore, soubrette and Virgie Williams. Pictures complete the bill. Packed houses despite the hot weather witnessed the matinee and night shows.

The picture is in eight reels and the theme tells of two lovers who through a misunderstanding become estranged, the woman seeking solace in a convent. After a time her lover locates her and love overcoming her vows, she gives up the veil and they are happily united. Conway Tearle is the chief male support. The comedy feature on this day will be "His Social Error," featuring Charles Murray. The messy, other treat will be offered and a double feature bill will be shown, the two special offerings being, "The Long Hind," a thrilling Western starring, "Hoolo," Gibson, supported by Marjorie Daw and "The Pilgrim," Charlie Chaplin's latest comedy. This latter picture is a four-reeler and shows the world famous screen cut-up in the funniest opers he has ever enacted. On Thursday, another big feature will be shown, namely, "The Heart of Texas Rain," starring that lovable Western cowboy here, Tom Mix. LINCOLN "The Drug Traffic" The Lincoln Theatre has discarded vaudille for the next few weeks owing to the hot weather, and is showing a big program of feature pictures chiefly of Western themes, in conjunction with two-reel comedies and the usual serial episodes. Next Monday, the special feature will be "The Drug Traffic," a 5-act drama which teaches a lesson on the evils of the "dope" habit, which at present time is a matter of concern to those who have the welfare of the nation at heart. Tuesday, "Boss of Camp 4," starring Charles (Huck) Jones, the dashing cowboy hero, will be the big feature. Wednesday, Jones will be the chief cinematographer in another big film, "Thursday and Friday," "Mixed Faces," a thrilling six-reel drama, will be the main feature, with Wm.

He ambled in and out of scenes set with costly genus of furnishings. His quiet humor and his out-of-luck appearance ranged strongly with so much magnificence. He shuffled along behind his partner Walker, who was as always sartorially splendid. Finally, Bert, who is dazed with the kaleidoscopic colors of the costumes and the pulchelitude of the native women in the market, places his guilty of putinning a vase. It is not particularly valuable and the offence at home would be a petty one, but the law of the land they are visiting exacts a severe penalty. The man guilty of theft must suffer to have the offending moppei computted. Bert must lose his arm. This situation leads up to the final scene between the two men, Williams and Walker, which if anyone calls "In Abyssimia" at all, Harold Lloyd Comedy "Pay Your Dues" Did he intend on seeing her again? His gay life had made him forget her, with wines and wild women, until when? Will his heart permit him to run wild all of his life? Can he always ignore kindness of a good clean woman?

And his hand is to be cut off! His partner is filled with regret, but he has a calm and meanish slant. Regret is futile, but Walker continues to discuss the matter in a mugging tone. "Why did you do it? If you only had the sense to keep your hands to yourself. Now you've done and it and they're gon't cut your hand off. Then what good will you be? Couldn't you have not stolen the vase? I'm ashamed of you! Your hand is gon't be cut off an' then what will you do? One hand—think of it! What can you do with one hand? ONE HAND AND A NUB!" Walker is becoming more and more vehement and more eloquent all the time. Williams is merely listening. He cannot escape the penalty or at least the trial, nor can he avoid Walker's torrent of reiterated recrimination and abuse. Finally, in sheer desperation, after Walker has climbed to the pinnacle of oratorial effort, and his voice is resounding with words of wisdom about "honesty," but what got him to look like? What got him to do with one arm? What, you gonto do with one arm AND A NUS?" Williams turns to him and says in his positivity, surefire finality of tone, "Oh, I'll put a hook on it."

The scene takes place in an outer room in the palace of Menelik the ruler. The verdict is to be announced by the ringing of a great gong. If the bell rings three times it means that the penalty is to be imposed; if a fourth time it means pardon. Something in the modelling' of Williams' features, something intangible as a shadow communicated the tagle import of the moment as he felt it. It was in this scene that Williams' finest acting was done. This was one of the scenes which revealed the man's great gifts and power to Belasco, who has frequent attendance in his plays. This was a class of work which Williams always wanted to do, but never had the opportunity for, after he joined the Follies. The gongs sound once—twice—thrice and the—.

They both work straight, but their offering which consists chiefly of dialogue stamp them as one of the best performers in the business. The title member of the team dill a skitful drunk scene that showed them for characterization, while his partner scored heavily by rendering a song number in what is known as double-voice. She, too, showed quite a bit of acting skill as the wife of the "drunker."

This preparation is known as Dr. Delano's Coco-Tar Hair Grower and is a product of the Herbs of Life Indian Medicine Company, of Gold Valley, California. Dr. Delano, the founder of the world famous Herbs of Life, has convinced and proved to Scientists, that Hair troubles are generally caused by an infected scalp and to make the hair grow, the infection must first be removed. So certain are the makers of Dr. Delano's Coco-Tar Hair Grower, that it will grow the hair two inches in length that they are making a written guarantee with each box agreeing to refund money in any case where the preparation fails to do as recommended. Several well-known Druggists have predicted that the sale of all hair preparations will be crippled on account of the wonderful merits of Dr. Delano's Coco-Tar Hair Grower. Druggists are purchasing very large quantities, in order to be in position to take care of the great demand that is sure to be created. Adv.

GROWS 10,500 A YEAR Steady Stream From All Sections Stops Off In Quaker City To Make A Home HOUSING A PROBLEM Migration Committee Finds Case of Sixteen Persons In One Room Phil., Delphia, Pa., July 12. Southern Negroes are migrating to Philadelphia in increasing numbers, is the statement issued by a committee representing the Armstrong Association, the Travelers' Aid Society, the Mercy Hospital and the Philadelphia Housing Association. Members of the committee are John Emlin, Geo. H. Frazier, A. L. Many, Henry M. Winton, Bernard Newman, Jasper Rowe and Garrett R. White. A committee estimates that the number of migrants coming to Philadelphia between July 1, 1922 and June 30, 1923, approximates 10,500 persons. The largest numbers have come from Virginia, Georgia, North Carolina and South Carolina in the order named. 99 per cent are church members, and all seem to have funds and steady work. The head K. of P. head reports that 99 per cent transferred here from the South. The skilled mechanics are receiving only slight increases in their wages, but the unskilled workers have been paid more than their former earnings. The women for the most part, have had experience but no training in domestic service, and are not accustomed to the Northern type of housing that their wages have materially increased. HOUSING THE BIG PROBLEM The big outstanding problems caused by the irrepressible rise from the moderate housing facilities and the soild menace through overcrowding. Above a small West Philadelphia garage, a man posted a single car for herself, an adopted son, three married children, and their grandchildren, making a total of sixteen persons. The house has either yard nor toilet, and flush and gate are thrown into an open 12'x12' Within seven months the medical inspectors have been obliged to guarantee forty-two different disasters, and to accuse them of being the small-pox cases found in these disasters was a Southern Negro recently come from the South. In one occupied by three hundred outcasts, the small-pox were found. This house was raided by a Southern Negro for $50 a month. By subletting to other tenants he realized $100 a week from the premises, although the entire histories were grossly indis The committee declares South tiers are wanted in the city be case of labor shortage and apoach to employ employees to turnib al housing.

Baltimore, Md. 1920 HASN'T A DAMNED THING TO SAY, SAYS C. C. FITZGERALD Acting Head of Providen Hospital Refuses to Talk About Meeting of Board Last Week Question of Merger of Provident and Victory Hospitals Put Off Until September "I haven't a damned thing to say" declared C. C. Fitzgerald, vice-president of the Provident Hospital and acting head of the institution since the death of President John W. Rich several months ago. Mr. Fitzgerald was visited by a reporter of the Afro-American at his office 215 St. Paul Place yesterday with the request that the public be given some information concerning the meeting of the Board of Directors of Provident Hospital on Monday afternoon. Said Mr. Fitzgerald, "I asked the Afro-American last week not to say anything about the Victory Hospital matter, but my request was not heeded. We are trying to do something for the welfare of the patient, but I am not going to discuss it for publicity does not help." Mr. Fitzgerald was plainly wrought up over the fact that the AFRO-AMERICAN made public last week that the Provident Hospital Board has not officially voted to merge with the new Victory Hospital, altho that seemed to be the understanding under which the public pension funds was made four years ago and over $20,000 collected. The article condemned by Mr. Fitzgerald, also pointed out that since the death of Mr. Rich, Mr. Fitzgerald alone is said to be the custodian of the fund, and that it has been impossible to find out whether it is subject to the direction of the Victory Hospital Campaign Committee, the five white and four colored trustees of the proposed Victory Hospital or the trustees of Provident Hospital. The article announced for the first time that Bishop John Hare was named on the Victory Hospital Board in the place of Mr. Rich. Provident Board Meets From other sources, it was learned that the Board of Providence met Monday for the first months. The pre-employment failed to produce a message. It is said the question being Provident Hospital are proposed new Welfare and Social housing, the building and equipment of the Union Protest Infirmary on Division near Mosher was discussed, but definite action postponed until September in order to find a way to secure the necessary finances to run the larger institution. Those seen coming from the Board meeting were Dr. W. T. Carr, Henry Hale. H. Grafton Browne, Dr. D. G. Scott, C. Fitzgerald and Dr. Fowler, Herbert Wilson and John Hawkins. Other members of the board were not present. The latter is attending summer school in Philadelphia. Dr. W. T. Carr, Jn., 515 Mosher street, asked if he favored the merger of the two hospitals, said that Mr. Fitzgerald as head of the Board had asked that nothing he given out for publication, and he did not wish to complicate matters. H. Grafton Browne, Argyle Ave. near Dolphin street declared that he favored the merger providing a way can be found properly to maintain its institution or expand it takes two tons of coal a day to run the new plant, a day and night fireman and many other like things that will require a large budget." Dr. D. G. Scott, 354 W. Biddle Street—I can commit myself, but I will not. We are to discuss this whole affair in a joint meeting with the Victory Hospital Board in September and possibly later the decision will be made by the Board of the Victory Hospital." Dr. C. H. Fowler, Druid Hill and Dolphin Street—I do not favor a merger unless the Division Street project can be adequately financed. "The board of directors of Provident Hospital is still intact and we are running the institution as in the past. The Victory Hospital cannot commit large financial outlays and a way must be found to get the money. before I favor giving up what we already have." Henry Hale. 2100 Druid Hill Avenue—I am in favor of the merger. A certificate of incorporation was received at the office of the State Commission Monday for the Victory Hospital. The Incorporators are, Judge Carroll T. Bond; Dr. John M. T. FinDr. William A. Fisher, Jr., Alfred R. Riggs, Judge John C. Rose, all white, Dr. Harry F. Brown, H. Grafton Browne, Bishop John Hurst and Atty. Cornelius C. Fitzgerald. When a woman approaches mild-age, she often looks to ward-to the change of life with apprehension and foreboding. This is inference, and foreboding. Unless a woman is in perfect health and good physical condition she usually suffers. However, by taking Woman's advice, she may best female health, she may safely, healthy and happily pass.

McGUINN ENDORSED FOR STATE SENATE McGUINN ENDORSED FOR STATE SENATE Fourteenth Ward Republic can Club Urges Him To Announce His Candidacy Fifteenth Ward Voters Seeks To Get Him To Run for the Legislature At a meeting of representative men and women of the Fourth Legislative District held at the headquarters of the 14th Ward Republican Club on Thursday coming of last week, Mr. McGinnis met with the chairwoman, T. McGinnis, who unanimously endorsed as the Republican candidate for State Senate. The resolution which was introduced by Miss Hazel MacKeeh, vice-executive of the Ward, a month ago and referred to a committee, was brought out and passed with enthusiastic approval. Asked by the AFRD-AMERican whether he would yield to the importance of his friends and enter the race of the Senate, Mr. McGinnis declared that he was holding the whole matter under administration, and a known law has been issued in a short while. Workers of the 14th Ward in putting forward Mr. McGuinn have their eyes wide open to the fact that Harry O. Levin, a white attorney, also aspires to this office and filed his papers sometime since. Members of the club, however, declared that their preference is Mr. McGuinn, and that in primary election they would poll more than enough votes to elect him. That the women of this city are to be active in politics in the Fall campaign and from now on are the signs which are rising above the horizon in the Fifteenth Ward where body of the female sex are organizing the high point by W. H. Larry and Pressman stands to the Legislature from the Fourth District. The move is being headed by some of the leading ladies of the city who wish to see a clean cut man on the ticket. Dr. Wright, who has modern enviable reputation in the medical profession, seems to be the choice of the newly enfranchised city who has for their slogan, Clean Politics*, and his backers assert that there will be a fight to a finish in the interest of his candidacy. Activity in the 19th and 15th Wards to name men on the Legislative ticket leaves only the 17th Ward out of the city. Mr. Wm. Fitzgerald told the Aries-Amexax that he would not be a candidate for legislature. Mr. Fitzgerald declared himself for a fair division of the seven Legislative offices in the District between white and colored Republicans adding Mr. McGregor became candidate for the Senate, the latter could command his hearty support.

WRIGHT SOUGHT PHYSICIANS INCREASE 23 PER CENT UNDERTAKERS INCREASE 60 PER CENT Colored Doctors Not Graduating Fast Enough To Keep Down Death Rate Washington, July 12—Statistics made public today by the Department of the Interior which has jurisdiction over the United States show that the death rate among the colored people of the United States is 17 to each 1,000 or 70 per cent in excess of the death rate of the white race. The figures further show that while the colored physicians and surgeons increased 633, or 23.6 per cent in the last ten years, the number of colored undertakers have increased during the same period by 64.5 per cent. Students of this situation attribute the constant increase in colored undertakers to the insufficient number of physicians to apply preventives against diseases and to care for the afflicted and claim that the only solution is to provide the necessary facilities so that colored men and women can practice the professions of medicine, dentistry, and nursing to work among their children. The same laws of health and sanitation, they assert, apply to both of the races alike and the same safeguards, preventives, and trained espionage of colored physicians, surgeons, dentists, and nurses should be applied to the colored races are applied to the white race in the United States. The colored race, it is explained, to produce these necessary professional men and women is due to the lack of educational institutions, there being only two in the country graduating physicians, surgeons, and dentists. One of them, Howard University, is unable to receive and instruct fifth of those applying for training with the result that the number of graduates is limited to an annual of 29 physicians, 22 dentists, and 13 nurses annually during the first ten years.

His will provided $19,000 for the acquisition of a colored house at St. Joseph's hospital. When Mr. Dole bought the Mulberry Street property a half century ago but few colored people lived outside of alley. There was much prejudice against the race and the three-story dwelling, which stood back from the building line, a high board fence at the street line.

JOHN BALTIMORE, JULY 13, 1923 Crushed To Death In Downtown Lift James Bailey, 341 Bethel street, elevator operator at the Garrett Building, was fatally injured Thursday when he was caught between the shaft and elevator near the seventh floor. Bailey was alone at the time of the accident and the affair occasion some speculation as to what caused him to be thrown against the shaft. An inspection of the mechanical units of the lift showed it to be in perfect condition, and it is believed that the unfortunate man either slipped or was rendered unconscious in some manner and fell against the door while the machine was in motion. He was badly crushed and was dead before assistance reached him. Mother Bears Child Like Julius Caesar A successfully caesarian operation was performed at Provident Hospital recently.

LONGSHOREM'N WORK ONLY 3 DAYS A WEEK Survey Shows These Workers Average Other Three Days In Idleness Only 1,039 White Long Shoremen Found In the City By CHARLES JOHNSON In Survey of Baltimore Industries (Note: Last week's article dealt with workers in fertilizer plants.) The longshoremen, have a most interesting history in the city. interesting history in the city. Before the Civil War practically all Negroes. With the entrance of many white laborers into this field immediately following the war there was serious competition which at first threatened to drive out Negroes entirely. At one time this competition was marked by strikes and hoots. An outstanding example of this period was the strike of white workers because the dock superintendent persisted in employing Negroes. Temporarily the Negroes were ousted and in a desperate effort to insure regular employment bought a shipyard and marine railway with the hard earned money of these ousted longshoremen and other Negroes and went to work. Whoshes they supposed they were buying the property in fees, a clever insured clause specified that it was merely leased for 20 years. At the end of the 20 years most of which time was required to pay for it, the shipyard was taken away. However, the very natural adaptability of Negroes to this work soon brought up their numbers again at first to an equal proportion with the whites and later to a majority which they have since held. At present there are 4,290 men employed in the city as longshoremen and stevedores, of which number 3,151 or 73 per cena, are Negroes. Employers agree that, considered as a group of workers, they are available for this type of labor. They have the physical strength, agility and dexterity of the larger muscles necessary for the work, and familiarity with longshoremen work acquired over a long period of employment in this field. Their ready adaptability and selection for this kind of work, however, suggests an outstanding feature of their general industrial status. Dock work is extremely irregular and uncertain, demands a large body of casual labor and casual employment is for the ordinary, demoralizing. Their work depends upon the arrival and departure of ships. In this case of very heavy cargo ships this is determined first by the season. Even in normal shipping times there is a considerable element of uncertainty. First may come a long period of idleness, then an exhausting stretch of continuous exertion. Irregularity and uncertainty of income and consequent ill-organization of family life. The excessively large per cent of Negro women employed is a reflection of the ill-normality. Thrift is impossible. Further, the excessively long continuous hours of feverish work when it is available and the enforced idleness and inevitably follows result in chronic ailments and aid in bringing about early disabilities. The average of the most regular workers is three days a week for the year around. A "sandwich" sign man patrolling Lexington Street, near Fremont Avenue, bids the clothing workers to unionize for "higher wages and humane treatment." Sometimes he is colored and sometimes he is a strike hitter. A strike hitter for weeks there will women are stationed there to prevent disorder. The union workers are now bending their efforts to organize colored girls employed in the factory because the equal and higher wages will result.

DON'T FAIL TO CALL MADISON 1664 The Druid Laundry 1634 Druid Hill Ave., Baltimore, Md. Superintendent Forgets That 15 Years Ago Dr. Waring Was Head of Colored Schools in the City WEST THEN ASST. SUPT. Member of School Board Complained That Waring, Not Van Sickle, Ran the Schools Is Dr. Henry S. West's memory short? This is the question that is agitating the minds of those in the school system who read his state ment that it was impossible to find anywhere a colored man to head all the city colored schools, and any one who attempted to supervise them all, would be a "preventious ornamental figurehead." Old school men who read this statement declare that Dr. West not serious in what he says, or else he has an unusually short mem Fifteen years ago, when Dr West was assistant superintendent of city schools under Superintendent Van Sickle, Dr. J. H. X. Waring was principal of the High School, principal of the Training School and group principal of the Dunl Hill avenue, Biddle street, Wassabe street and several other elementary schools. Dr. Waring not only planned the course of study for these schools but under his direction special courses in drawing, sewing, cooking, carpentry, and printing were established at special centres under colored instructors. The course of instruction Dr. Waring mapped out for the Colored Training School was adopted without change in the white Training School. Maded All Schools Dr. Waring had sole charge of these colored schools including the supervision, employment and promotion of teachers and at the close of the Van Sickle administration plans were on foot to give him complete charge of all the colored schools in the city. During this time Dr. West was assistant superintendent in charge of secondary schools but he had nothing to do with the Colored High School Mr. Van Sickle often added to Dr. West and Dr. Waring as the only two pedagogical minds among his assistants, and these two worked out together courses of study and other plans for the school system. So often was Dr. Waring called into consultation on matters concerning the whole school system of the city that Mr. Hooper, the member of the school charged that Dr. Waring was the head of all the city schools and Dr. Van Sickle was only his assistant. In view of all these facts, it is pointed out, Dr. West when he claims no colored man can be found to head all the colored schools is not only disregarding the outstanding example of a Negro heading all the Negro schools in Washington, but is intentionally forgetting that he worked with Dr. Waring when the latter directed all the colored schools in Baltimore. Who Is Dr. West? hey S. West, Ph.D. is the son of a Confederate officer in the War of the Rebellion. He is a graduate of the City College and John Hopkins University in the class with Federal Judge Morris Sauer. Before coming back to Baltimore five years ago he was a member of the board of assistant superintendents in Cincinnati, Ohio. When approached by a committee of the board of education, which asked him to accept the position of superintendent of city schools, Dr. West is said to have demanded 88,000 salary, automobile and the dismissal of Assistant Superintendent Hans and Pietchen a part of the Koch administration The members of the committee threw up their hands in horror at paying the superintendent of Schools a larger salary than the Mayor of Baltimore is getting, but later they accepted these demands. At the following meeting of the Board, the resignation of Messrs. Hans and Pietch was demanded along with that of Superintendent Koch. They were dismissed without the formality of a hearing on the filing of any charges against them. Some years ago during the public ascription that the histories in the schools are unfair to the cause of the South in their treatment of the war of the rebellion. Dr. West was one of the strongest supporters of the proposition to substitute there text books which did not dis-her text books which did not dis- The Case Conference on Colored Work was held Friday evening at 4:33 Division street.

And it seems to be only the question of a few years when a large proportion of the best homes there will be occupied by the race. It is not the colored people pushing the whites out, but the whites have moved toward the northern city limits. Many of the whites who lived in West Baltimore years ago are now residents of such beautiful sections as Forest Park, Walbrook, Guilford and Roland Park. That has meant the throwing of many houses on the market. In most instances the homes of this class of whites have been taken by exponent whites. Many homes are now nothing but mere lodging houses. As the whites are pushing on there is that large element of colored people who are seeking an outlet. Some are now living on Gilmer street near Harlem Square and within a stone's throw of Lafayette Square. Few On Big Streets While thirty years ago the few colored people who lived on big streets could be counted easily, the great desire to get out of the alleys has been manifested by colored people moving on nearby the north entrance of Metcalf street. David Hill avenue and side streets. The northwest side began about 1900, and, except for Madison avenue, nearly all of the available property in that section has been secured. This accounts for the movement to the west, now setting in. Colored families are on Gilmore street from Fayette street to Pressman; on practically the entire length of North Mount street; on Carey street from Lanvale to Cumberland and in the 900 blocks of Arlington and Carrollton avenues, which are adjacent to the South Street, Strickler and Cross streets. Moves Near Lafayette Square. Recently residents of the Lafayette Square section were started to learn that Mrs. Chira Lewis had purchased the white marble-front dwelling at 1229 W. Lafayette avenue, just west of Carey. Willard W. Allen, who was the broker in the transaction, was sent for by a white man interested in keeping colored people out of the block and neighborhood and who should be sold to the property should be sold to colored people" the white man told Mr. Allen.

Mistress Maggie, who is Mrs. Watson Hunter, $54 Tyson street, now experienced this date to elapse, and experienced more thrilling than it is the fate of many a girl to receive in a lifetime. Another Odom told heart-pierced little girl that she would have to learn some more about making biscuits before she could accept the hand of Watson Hunter, a gallant Lothario of 30 years. But the urge of her mate was so urgent that Maggie decided to elope. Then things began to happen. Mrs. Odom went frantically in quest of some brave knight to rescue her daughter from the "Hunter have nest," and she would offer his hand to Maggie, his knight and but dainty little Maggie's one-time sweetheart, Carey Batts, 310 Camel street. When Eats reached the Hunter retreat, Hunter had gone on an erased down the street, and without telling her what it was all about, he took the little bride in his arms and began a wild and shookish run towards her mother's abode. But, ye gods, and suffering cats! Just as he turned the corner of the block, brave Watson Hunter hove in sight. Then the race did begin. When Eats saw that with the coeur de la bouche bride he was losing ground and the distance between him and the irate hubby was growing slimmer and slimmer, he dropped his charge and made for the tail timber. At this point the police entered the race and all three parties soon found themselves looking into the face of the desk Sergent at Northwestern Police Station. Thinking it the same old story of one woman and two men, the three very blushing bride sandwiched in a cell between the two men. Thus was spent the first night of the honeymen. The whole truth of the matter did not come to light until the hearing before Magistrate Ranft on Tuesday morning, when the mother, the two brave contenders and the new weeping beide all faced His Honor. It developed that all the trouble was brought about by the objection C Morning udge Umpire Mobbed of the mother, augmented by that of her former suitor. Hunter had taken the girl to Washington, where they had married, and returned the same day and presented his certificate to this effect. Registerate Ranft ended the opinion of dismissing the charges against all parties, and expressing his sorrow that they had to spend their first night in a cell and the party, even Eats, all left seemingly satisfied. The mother and girl were wiping the last tour from their eyes when Eats, half smiling, said, "Well, some guess you have her all right now." Decision The scene was the corner of Fenton and Lafayette avenues. A ball game between the Pennsylvania Angles and the Sluggers was in progress. One of the Angles was making a run for the home plate when Jaeph Johnson, 1433 Fromm avenue, the empire of the game yielded in a field out of OTT. Then there was a rush from all directions to the empire, and when the police resumed Johnson from the cyclone he was still feebly yelling "Out." At the police station Monday morning William Tripp, who seemed to have led the onslaught against the empire, was killed $1 and costs a Slugger. A number of other Sluggers were dismissed with a warning to take other means of disregarding with his honour, the "umps." :: :: :: No Adam and Residents of Shields alley did not was sufficient reason for Miss Eleanor think that even this hot weather was Bailey, 1554 Shichis alley, and Raymond Smallwood, 555 W.

A ton of coal was supplied and milk is still being sent in." FAMILY SUPPORTS SELF "The family of seven where there was no money for clothing, is entirely self-supporting, as the father is working and able to carry his own expenses. Clothing and milk to the extent of $25 was supplied to this family. "The widow who was in need of artificial牙 was supplied with them to the extent of $20. Her health is now very much better and she has been able to return to her work. "The other four families are still receiving milk as there are a number of children and the wage earner is not able to pay for it. In one family the man has tuberculosis and is too ill to go to the Municipal Hospital. His wife supplements the income and three quarters of milk a day is supplied in this particular family.

Maryland Legislature Appropriates Pittance to Colleges for Colored Youth "$3 Lots Are Sold For $500 Such publications as these are rendering a commendable service to the people; and it is a deployable fact, that the newspapers controlled by white men, are not rendering a similar service to their public, and although these publishers have known for more than ten years that my object in trying to Robert Russia Moton, that Prince of Hat Passers, who went to France soon after the war to show Negro troops wherein the proper thing to o was to "keep quiet," who "squawkup" his head off getting the Governor's attention, and now that I don't come out of his house because of the white shee man, better known as the Ku Klux Klan. Robert suffers without any sympathy. Legislature Already Gives Nearly A Million to Support Higher Education of Whites Maryland Far Behind, Texas, North Carolina and West Virginia The University of Maryland is asking that the Governor of Maryland send in a budget of $4,000,000 for it to the next Legislature. It is a school which has greatly grown within the past four years and since the merger of the Maryland Agricultural College at College Park every effort has been made to spread its influence among the whites in various sections of the State. Here in Baltimore the schools of law, medicine, dentistry, pharmacy, nursing, and commerce have colored the district agents, who operate from College Park, visit colored farmers, occasionally. Maryland is the only Southern state which supports no higher colored school. For the purpose of securing Federal appropriation under the Morrill and subsequent acts the Princess Anne Academy is called the Eastern branch of the University of Maryland. The University of Maryland is $18,000 and $3,000 to Morgan College, making $21,000 in all for the higher education of the race. Various departments of the University of Maryland received from the State $671,000. Blue Ridge College, $7,000; Charlotte Hall School, $8,500; Johns Hopkins University, $75,000. St. John's College, $45,000. St. Mary's Female College, $12,000. West Virginia College, $55,000; Western Maryland College, $27,000; West Nottingham Academy, $6,000; making a grand total of $83,200. The West Virginia legislature, at its recent session appropriated $545,000 for the West Virginia Colored Institute, and the news comos from Texas, is that the legislature there has just given $111,111 to the Prairie View Normal School. North Carolina appropriated last year $606,000 to A. and T. College, at Greensboro, N. C., the largest sun ever given at one time to any colored school. Congratulates Afro On Expose Of Fraud In Lot Selling To the Editor: I am pleased to compliment the APRO-AMERICAN, because of the fact that it is publishing interesting articles, which no other newspaper appears to have courage enough to publish, take for instance the article which was published in the Afro-American, of June 15, 1922, about the Land Sharks, and featured on the front page of that issue in big type. establish all international business of information about Cuba, is for the purpose of helping these seekers of investment investors from such swindlers as the ones exposed by the Aro-American: whereas all that the other newspapers have ever done has been to fabricate false reports about my marriage to Mrs. Marion C.

PE-RU-NA For Summer Colds RUM OXY PE We 0 never know how summer colds will terminate. The safe way is to break them up in the heat with a few doses of the time-tested and reliable remedy, Pe-Ru-NA. Sold Environmentally Tablets or Liquid Professor Fudge Says: A few years ago the Board of the Provident Hospital discovered that their quarters were too small and too inadequate to carry on the work of saving human lives. At the same time, the Union building held new quarters in a more desirable section of the city. The result was, the head of the hospital got their heads together and made arrangements to make the Union Protestant Infirmary a Black Institution, providing a certain amount of maids was required to the board of the Provident Hospital or some equally unimportant aggregation got together and started collecting sheckles to purchase the institution on Division street. The new hospital, a wartime suggestion, was to be called the Victory Hospital, and was supposed to include the staff and machinery, both mental and physical. The hospital it was universally agreed the project was sound and good and no one tried to show reasons why such should not be the case. After going in the by-ways and hedges, twenty-five thousand dollars was finally raised and stored away along with twenty-five more thousand dollars worth of likely worthless pledges. This much done, the financial experts and the "hackers" relied on them until such time as the Union Protestant Infirmary was ready to vacate. Now, then, in the interim some of the members of the Provident Board die and new recruits are brought up to fill their places, and I hear things that don't "listen" so good. They tell me the pressure of the Provident Board is that they decided that they do not wish to be mixed up with the new Victory Hospital. They tell me they find they are about to take that twenty-five thousand and enlarge the Provident Hospital. They tell me they intend to let the Victory Hospital go for itself. Can you beat it? If the numerous reports are true and the Board of the Provident Hospital is approving those bucks and "hamstring" the public, I am of the opinion there will shortly be something doing in the Monumental City. I am not familiar enough with the legal aspects of the case to say whether such a thing could be perpetrated, but at first glance the thing looks logos. Before going further, I would like to mention that I had a devoted Hospital to remember the fate. of Jesse James, the Norris Gang, the Blind Pool and Marcus Garvey. I am not aware when the Board meets again, however. I caution them to stay on Minden Street and look at the Jail before further deliberations. The last week finds two people an organization severely embe- dered. Robert Russia Muton, that Prince of Hat Passers, who went to France soon after the war to show Negro troops wherein the proper thing to o was to "keep quiet," who "squawkup his head off getting in the Government A hospital located in Tuskegee, how come out of his house because of the white sheet man, better known as the Ku Klux Klan, Robert suffers without any sympathy. "YALLER" HOUSE SHUTTE Uncle Bennie Brown Takes "Half Baked Fling" a "YALLER" HOUSES WITH BLUE SHUTTERS GET HIS OKEY House With Blue Shutters By Uncle Bennie Brown Fudge, that cynical versatile and entertaining iconoclast on current topics certainly must have run out of imaginative brain cells when he elected to wallop Mr. James Williams for exercising his prerogative in painting his own house the color that best suited his own sweet will. How that the learned Professor could overlook all of the many more commendable things that this enlightened youth is doing on Pennsylvania Avenue and make a mountain out of a molehill, savors of a lack of mental perspective and ability to analyse and form practical judgments. We would not like to believe that Professor Fudge would commit the outright impropriety of telling a downright falsehood and we therefore take the more merciful view that he failed to properly inform his students of the man who by his accomplishments at least has demonstrated more ability than the Professor to be a judge of colors. When Professor Fudge has taken his ability and turned it into as proportional practical use as Mr Williams, he can bet his sweet life that people will grant him the privilege of deciding what colors he thinks best for his own property. Who gave Professor Fudge the commission, anyway, to declare that he is a colorless man? Where does he get his authority that yellow and blue are not attractive as black and white or green and gray? This is a tendency of some "hiffluting noncoms" to decry and be little anything that does not set the man apart. If he does not get the point that the man who actually accomplishes things is necessarily original. There is also a tendency of these smart aleks to poke fun at anything southern. There are facts about this "Georgia Pasol" as the learner. (2) Professor calls him. Mr. James' Williams, formerly of Georgia, is a self-made man of modest appearance. He is not reputed to be a millionaire; as this misinfor- Victory Hospital Moton, Harding, and the K. K K. President Harding, who not so long ago made a wonderful rambling speech in Birmingham about the distinct development along racial lines, has taken Alaska for it, leaving his cup-bearer, Moton, to suffer the scorn of both the black and white, the Ku Klux Klan, the one most veterans who believe in white supremacy, are now embarrassed by fighting for the right to serve Negroes, fighting for the right to have white gentlemen and white ladies to administer to the needs and wants of colored men. But the Ku Klux Klan is better off than Major Moton or President Harding in the least thought. Their never so thick they can't even comprehend the inconsistency of the situation. Stealing the Widow's Mite There was a National Marble Championship contest held in Atlantic City at which time local champions from different sections vied with each other for the National Honor. A colored boy represented New York and another colored boy represented Chicago. To begin with, contrary to the first understanding, the two colored boys were matched against each other in the semi-finals, in order that only one of them possibly show his head in the finals. Walter Pate, the Chicago boy was "running wild." He walked through all of the contestants until he finally encountered a white youth from Ohio. The white youth beat him by a small margin but as is all ways the case in encounters like this, the officials are said to have taken every possible "jew" on the dark youngster. However, nature took a youngster. Little white boy wield was aided and by the white officials fainted after the contest and had to be hauled away, while Master Pate was still capable of going further. Next year there will probably be no colored contestants. White people do not as a rule take a second long chance where colored people are concerned. An official who would cheat boys in a game of marbles, would steal the widow's mite. Bring Dr. DuBois His Hat Last week, Mr. W, E, E. D. DuBois was invited to Philadelphia to address an audience on segregation. It was thought and expected that Dr. DuBois would say "down with segregation," but to the disappointment of the Philadelphiaians, Mr. DuBois advocated it. He went further and said he gloried in it. Contrary to our own expectation, he insisted he separates colored schools in Pennsylvania. This ran the audience's cup over. I am not concerned about Philadelphia, separate schools or mixed schools, but I am concerned about Mr. DuBois. This is the second time the Professor has made a right about face. He is starting to play the game like some political candidates who are both wet and dry at the same time. Sooner or later a man must come off the fence. Washington and the rest of the Sharpe nation in Paradise must have enjoyed Dr. DuBois' speech immensely. Dr. DuBois is going to keep on finding around until someone will have to bring him his hat. mer declares but is actually rated with a responsible financial agency as being worth around $250,000. He has succeeded in acquiring a valuable farm property, educating a family, his daughter being a teacher, and having known Negro school in the world. He has invested in a stock farm which he is developing near this city and to which last week was made a shipment of 4000 head of poultry and 44 head of cattle and mules. He has acquired, not leased, six pieces of property which he has improved to the satisfaction of the building inspector of Baltimore City, he has set a precedent of helping the unfortunate that would be able to possess the body also and all this with money dug out of that "awful prejudice-ridden land" behind the sun in Georgia." Now let's pit the accomplishments of this "Georgia Peach" with his limited education and advantages with that of Professor Fudge and if the latter can show by the things he has actually done, any better record upon which to base his right to select colors for properties, we will take the responsibility to declare we can induce Mr. Williams to use the colors for any the Professor might select. If he can't do this it would be well for him to either shut or expend his vitriolic eruptions on something he is better qualified to handle. DR. JAW WHITE DENTIST Gas Grown & Bridge Administered north a Specialty PHONE VERNON 6356 1038 PENNSYLVANIA AVE COLORED TEACHERS FOR CHELTENHAM COLORED TEACHERS FOR CHELTENHAM Rev. Geo. F. Bragg, Member of Board, Says This Change Should Be Made EFFORT BEGUN IN 1903 Two Colored Teachers Sent There Did Remarkable Work The first and most important change which should be made at the House of Reformation for Boys at Cheltenham is to give the school colored teachers. Rev. Dr. George F. Bragg, Jr., a member of the Board made this statement to the Afro-American today. He also declared that a State like Maryland which is committed to the policy of separate colored schools and colored teachers should see that the policy is also carried out at Cheltenham. This step might easily be brought about he said providing representative personng make this request of Mayor Jackson and Governor Ritchie. Rev. Dr. Braggs' statement follows: 20 YEARS ON BOARD I was elected a member of the Board of Managers of the House of Reformation in 1901, and have been re-elected every year since that time. From the very beginning I have been under the convection that the several schools there should be taught by colored persons. Through my persistence in the matter, 29 years ago, a beginning was made in that direction. Gen. Shryock strongly favored E. I am sending herewith an extract from a personal letter received by me from Mrs. Anne E. Mitchell a colored lady, whom I secured as a teacher. Mr. Mitchell, his husband, was placed in charge of the chapel in the summer of 1901, of the letter most suggestive the present, notwithstanding the letter was written 29 years ago. The date of the letter is Sept. 5, 1903. NEW SUPERINTENDENT In part it says: "Today's Mio-American states your return. I have your vacation in been both pleasant and profitable, of course, you are aware of the changes." Pablo is now acting Superintendent. The State Department has sent G. Snirko, having been down and one evening called all the officers together, grandly and firmly, announced his intention of running the affairs of thecheltonia, had already good results are attained. There are now two schools, with the larger boys, and two with the smaller boys, as G. Snirko recommended such segregation. I have with the exception of a few retarded as helpers, so as not to cripple the work. "There had been a noticeable degree of improvement in my school, as a whole, within the past two months, in pleasing boys before they become hardened. I am many of them impassionable, and now every means for their intellectual, moral and physical adjustment. I have been of happiness. I will not worry you with detail, but be ready to you the parting of Mr. thoreau for an over-provisioned people. I will worry white to you the parting of Mr. thoreau for an over-provisioned people. I have had resigned as Superintendent." "Extending his hand, and bidding to both 'goodbye'. Mr. Dorsey said: " I wish you success in all your future efforts. I must say you have done much for your case you, seriously, have raised my estimation of your race, and aroused in me a hope for them that I never had before. I am glad to have known you, and to know that in your case are such people." My reply was "Thank you, Mr. Dorsey, but you probably have been most unfortunate in your contact with your race. Among us are many superior to me, further advanced, in every way, I came here merely do my duty in ways." CONFESSION OF DISTREST "This ran a conversation that was alike pleasing and more surprising, with its conversion of distract of our race, and apparent conversion to loaf and hope. And I said to John other husband our coming his been worth while; that we have lived in see and hear these words, uninvited from Mr. Dorsey's lips. God surely is with us, and here is one reward for faithfulness to His laws. Mr. and Mr. Dorsey made us a friendly call before leaving." MAYOR HAYES PLEASED MAYOR HAYES,LEASE I think the most letter is worthy of a production at this time. In company with Mayor Hayes, I as well as others, visited Mrs. Mitchell's school, and the Mayor was specially pleased and frankly and heartily expressed himself in favor of colored teachers for these boys. From the very first I advocated such a change and all during my membership on the committee, I was able to opportunity to urge the same. That is the one thing in connection with this institution that should be done. As for Mr. Pyles I have nothing but words of praise. I think, under all the circumstances, he has bravely driven go to his duty. But it is a situation, and not a theory, which confronts us, and I can conceive of no good teacher the second to be in the schools of that institution. Mr. and Mrs. Mitchell did splendid work, but after some years of service, the isolation was too great for them. Such would not be the case if ALL the teachers were of the same race as the boys of their institution. But the life of the best of their own race, and, reflecting the same, would be transformed into the same likeness.

It was planned to demonstrate the powerful and external significance of the white race and also show the determination of the white people of Tuskegee to prevent segregation from being installed as officials from the Veterans' Hospital hospital. Throughout all the heat and passion of the hospital discussion there have come occasional and persistent games of the Klan parade. Then on Monday, July 1st, there came a real and decisive word that the parade would come off Tuesday night, July 2nd. The officials of the Institute were notified that the parade should not come upon nor pass thruway of the school thoroughfares; but no one at the Institute need of being molested, but that the parade should be looked upon just as it was a Masonic or Pythian parade. WHITE WOMAN FAILED The cleverly devised stage-setting for the day came near being upset a colored boy—single-handed and naif. John H. Calhoun, a graduate of Hampton Institute, was going those who recently took the Post Service Examination for Discussing Officer at the Hospital. Among the others who took the examination was Annie Huminec, a white woman, who had held and still holds the position. When the examinations were over it was shown that Calhoun had made the highest average, while Annie had failed to pass. Calhoun was in Virginia at the time he received his orders to respond to the hospital to take the position, and he came in spite of definite warnings from his friends that the whites of Tuskegee had threatened to kill him on sight. Tuesday morning, Calhoun reported to Colonel Stanley, the Commanding officer in charge of the Hospital, and was given a desk, but no work. Colonel Stanley handed Calhoun a letter which he said he had been requested to deliver to the Calhoun took the letter and without opening it it put into his pocket while Stanley looked on with astonishment that he did not read it. The Tuesday's issue of the Montgomery Advertiser says that Calhoun found the letter on his desk, opened it read it and then tore it up, which is not in accordance with the facts. Calhoun made it very clear and denied to Stanley and to his own personal friends that he was not going to leave. And inasmuch as the report of the day's doings it appeared in the Montgomery Advertiser—a report in which which must have been contemplated the "hasty departure" of Calhoun, it was necessary for him to go or spoil the staging-set, but Calhoun did not hasten away. ORDER CALHOUN SENT HOME Stanley, it is said, became panic-stricken because Calhoun appeared to be not so easily frightened and refused to give bim a room at the has it also that Stanley then left hospital, although his salary includes "maintenance." The report the hospital and telephoned back and gave orders for Calhoun to be put off the reservation and instructed three armed white guards to see carried out. and his orders were God and unruffled by the threats that he was to be killed on sight and despite the entreaties of his friends, Klan members without any effort at community remained in the community until after the Klan parade passed, then he left for Washington, where he said he was going to carry the light to a finish. During the parade most of the people at the Institute went about their usual duties and pleasures. Most of the 200 students and 600 summer school teachers and seen Klan parades before and those who witnessed the parade looked on with curiosity and not with "awe and silence" as the Montgomery Advertiser reported. GENERAL HINES HERE General Hines spent the day here yesterday. He was in conference with the special committee composed of twenty-two whites, no Negroes of course being infuriate. It is said that General Hines told the white committee that whoever the Hospital did so without authority and that the matter of personnel was purely a Government matter with which the TUSKEGEE INSTITUTE had nothing to do. General Hines also told the whites, according to the Montgomery Advertiser, that he thought he could finally set the matter in a way satisfactory to the Tuskegee people. The General also told that a committee three whites from Tuskegee be appointed to work with him in the solution of the problem. WANTED NO NIGGERS H. H. Powell, the spokesman for the Tuskegee whites and leader of the controversy, in an impassioned address, told General Hines that the Call VErnon 6016 THE AFRO-AMERICAN SOUTH'S BIGG appointment of "Niggers" to head a Government institution in Alabama would be a slap at white supremacy and that he wanted General Hines and President Harding to know that if Northern "Niggers" came down "putting on airs and demanding their rights" that real trouble would result. Powell also made it clear that Southern customs and Jim Crow laws may be "right or wrong but we are going to stand by them until the last drop of Southern white blood is spilled." General Hines was deeply moved by Powell's address. K. K. K. THREATENED DR. MOTON'S LIFE National Association Tells Why It Asked Harding To Send Troops To Tuskegee PROMISE WAS GIVEN Letter From Harding Says Doctors and Nurses Will Be Colored New York, July 12—In a teleway to Abissa, the National Associationgram to President Harding on his invitation for the Advancement of Colored People on July 5, asked that Federal troops be sent to Tuskegee, staff of doctors and nurses caring for Negro war veterans in the Hospital there. The action followed threats by the Ku Klux Klan of Alabama against the colored hospital staff. The telegram reads as follows: --- "National Association for Advancement of Colored People representing 100,000 American citizens, asks that Federal troops be sent to Tuskegee, Alabama, to protect colored doctors sent to United States Veterans' Hospital to care for Negro World War Veterans. Lives of these United States doctors and security of Tuskegee Institute have been threatened by as internationally known agency making for interracial goodwill, should have protection against lawless defiance of government. We urge especially Federal protection for R. R. Moton, successor to Booker T. Washington, whose estate has been threatened. (Signed) "James W. Johnson Secretary" National Association for the Advancement of Colored People --- Following this telegram to President Harding, when it was made known that Director Frank B. Hines of the Veterans' Bureau had gone to Tuskegee to meet with white citizens there, the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People issued the following, statement: "The President of the United States promised in a letter on file in this office, that colored doctors and nurses would be appointed to care for the Negro veterans in the U. S. Hospital at Tuskegee. The grounds upon which this hospital stands were given to the government. For the President to recode from his promise, would be a capitulation by the government to insurrectionary mob violence in Alabama. Trouble, if trouble there, be is made by the Ku Klux Klan and white persons sympathetic with that order, not by the Negro physicians and nurses eager to serve their country and their "The government ought to be able and willing to take whatever steps may be necessary to protect its property and the lives and interests of those in its service.

Except for the substitution of names every incident is exactly as it occurred, and as far as I know, every one but the leading person in the sketch still lives. The name Prof. Ducker is genuine. The man still lives and practices his "works" down in Allyers, La. This little parish is known the South over as the headquarters of a certain kind of hoochoe practice and is visited by both white and color for that purpose.) "Dear Prof. Ducker: Please put out those lights and turn loose that hen. I am dying here. Susie has me down here and I can't do a thing. Hurry or it will be too late. Yours truly. Lou Wendell." I never shall forget how this woman uttered these words and with what despair she sank into unconsciousness as he lay on a little cot in one of the wards in the Memphis City Hospital. She had sent for me urgently because her employer. Like most of the employees of the South, had been soiling her fresh eggs and milk daily, and I had volunteered to take them to her, and had come to know her. When I arrived that morning it could at once be noticed that the spirit of the once vigorous woman had been broken and that she was dying. In a weak struggling voice she asked me to write a letter for her. I took the paper and pencil and began to write. Following her, word for word, I wrote the above letter. Then she collapsed. Mrs. Lot Wendell had been the cook in the family of one of the leading white business men of Memphis, a glass manufacturer, for many years. She had been once place in the office of an employer offered to him in Southern relations where she felt herself head of the colored help.

It was here that the story of the hoodoo works began. Occasionally Lou made a mysterious trip to New Orleans. Whenever she returned there was always present in her eyes a kind of triumphant gleam. We did not learn until later that these trips were always in request of better "works" to put a quietus on the prosperity of Susie. Nearly, Lou thought that Susie was using "the power" also and she kept a constant watch to see that she did not run into her "plants" as he said. Susie found this out and often used it to frighten her. On one occasion she sprinkled a little flour on the kitchen step one morning and when Lou came, and noticing the flour immediately foigned a stress as an excuse for returning home, she did not enter that door that day. To "get" Susie, Lou tried many things. Some of her "works" were interesting. She believed that if she brushed off a clean spot over which Susie tees. * Miss Carrie Fields, of Philadelphia, is now spending the summer here with her parents, Mr. and Mrs. James Fields. * Mrs. Susanna Wallace has returned home after spending a few weeks with her parents, Mr. and Mrs. Hubbard, at Harmony, Md. * Mr. Augustus Fields, of Baltimore, spent fourth of his mother, Mrs. Virginia Bentley. * Mr. Virginia Bentley, from Baltimore, also spent fourth of July at home with his brother, Mr. Wm Campher. * Mr. Bernard Thomas has gone to Baltimore. * Miss Harriet Bentley has returned to Baltimore. * Miss Harriet Bentley has returned to Baltimore after spending a few days with her parents, Mr. and Howard Bentley. * David Furnell has purchased a car. * Mrs. Furnell has made a flying trip to Annapolis, Md. on Friday, July 6th. * Mr. and Mrs. Eldert Haskins and family spent Sunday afternoon with her parents, Mr. and Mrs. Horace Limbery. * Mr. and Mrs. Oswald Smith were the guests of Mr. and Mrs. Frank Smith, on Sunday. * Mr. Henry Houssons, a brief visit to Annapolis, the Knights and courts of royal Oakure preparing to attend the K. of P., convention, which is to be held at Crissfield, July 16, 17 and 18.

Little Sarah was to the yard playing one day when she saw a rose on the bloom and took it to make it, but her mother stole her saying that "When there is more than one rose on the bush you can have one, if the devil tempts you, tell him to get behind you." When Sarah's mother went out Sarah took one. When her mother returned she asked Sarah did she see a rose on the bush? Sarah said, "Yes, and he pushed me right up to it."—Dorothy Singleton, 1040 Argyle avenue. My little brother, four years old, went visiting with his parents.

THE MAKING OF THE FLAG ACT I. Characters—Soldiers of the revolutionary army. First soldier—Fellers, do you know we can't not flag? we can't get no flag! Other soldiers—We know it; just it fierce! ACT II. Characters—Soldiers and George Washington. Soldiers—George, do you know we aint it fierce? George Washington—I know it, fierce! Be boss—I know it, George; aint it fierce! You just mind the baby a minute, and I'll make the flag. One player is chosen to be "Charley" and if there are more than 26 players, there should be two or more "Charley's" to make the action more rapid. "Charley" rains in the center; the other players join hands in a circle around him and dance around, repeating the rhyme: "Charley over the water. Charley over the sea. Charley catch a blackbird. Can't catch one." The last word 'jid' said the player stops and "Charley" tries to tag them before they can get into that position. Should he succeed, the player tagged changes places with him.

The door was opened by a woman of other proportion, severe in demeanor, and uncertain age and temper. Having speedily ascertained the object of the unexpected visitor, in caspy tones she observed: "I shall not give you anything; If you had been wise, you would not have come here. Do you know who am? Well, I am the policeman's wife, and if he was here he would take you, and drive quickly, too." The tired trump looked at her quietly for a minute, and then replied: "I believe you, madam; if you took you he would take anybody." Edith davis, 1663 Argyle avenue. "In my time, miss," said a stern aunt, "the men looked at the women's faces instead of their ankles." "Oh, but my dear aunt," retorted the young lady, "you see the world has impaired, and is more civilized than it used to be. It looks more to the understanding."—Joseph Johnson, Woodlawn, Md. An old colored man had to pass a vault lot and from work. On his bit was a goat grazing every day on one of the hills. He followed him home and showed signs of wanting to stay. About a week later he was telling some of his friends of the goat's peculiarities. He concluded his story with these words: "And his nose is cut off; yes air, cut off near his nose." He paused a second because his friends seemed dumbfounded to learn that the goat's nose had been cut off. After a while one of them asked him, "How does the goat snort?" The old man replied, "Just as strong as the rest of them."—Thas H. Tymes, 1126 N. Carry street. SHE FORGOT In school most every day we would have the correct use of "is" and "are"; so one day last week I was in a store looking around at different things. I saw a beautiful piece of material, and then I saw some dresses. I said to the man, "How much is these?" This reply was "Those are $0.99 a piece."

Taking a neighbor about it he said, "You know last year it was a brother-in-law, now I'm an uncle, and I'll bet next year I'll be a grandfather." Heart Problems --- Answeed by Annie Roney Blue Eyes—Try to avoid anything that might cause your husband to become angry. Then there should be no cause for his outbursts. Brown Eyes—The young lady may have had a perfectly good reason for not keeping her engagement with you, my friend. Call her up and ask if you may call. BLACK EYES—It is not wise to wear a young man's ring unless you are engaged my dear. Be modest and dignified with the young man who looks at you. Then, when you are properly introduced, invite him to call at your home. Lou—It is highly improper and unwise to allow a young man to whom you are not engaged to kiss you. All girls do not allow such liberties. You are mistaken. There are many girls who would not think of doing such a thing. Grieved Black Eyes—The young man must love you or he would not have asked you to marry him. Don't you think you are rather young to think of such things? However, there is no reason why you should give up his friendship. A True-Hearted Girl—There is no reason why you should give up the friendship of this young man, my dear. But do not take him too seriously. The next time he breaks an engagement with you, tell him that you do not care to make any move if he is not going to keep them. This should make him realize what he is doing, and he may show you, whether his engagements with you mean anything to him.

BAKED CABBAGE Boil a firm head of cabbage for 15 minutes and then change the water, adding fresh boiling water, let it boil until tender, drain and seaside to cool. Mince some boiled butter, mix with bread crumbs, and 2 eggs well beaten. 1 tablespoon of butter, 3 tablespoons of milk and season with salt and pepper. Chop the cabbage fine, mix all together and bake until brown. Serve hot.—M. S. J. CHOP SUEY This supplies meat, vegetable and salad all in one, and is a nourishing and tasty dish for fruit dessert. It is also a good way to use up scraps of any kind of meat too small to use for stew. Use 1 cupful of meat finely chopped. 1 pint of tomatoes. 1 or more onions browned and drippings until tender only, add the tomatoes, then meat, a cup of left-over boiled rice, the ends of celery or boiled potatoes, and a little salt water until tender. Add salt, pepper, paprika, and a dash of curry powder.—Gindys. CAULIFLOWER WITH CHEESE This is my favorite recipe. Boil one good-sized head of cauliflower in salted water until tender. Drain off the water and have a baking dish buttered and put the cauliflower in a large 1/2-inch square 1/4 inch pound of cheese grated or finely chopped. I pint of milk, a little melted butter, two-thirds cups flour. Work the melted butter and flour together, then heat the milk and add it, mix all, add a pinch of salt and cook the sauce for five minutes. Add a dash of cayenne paper and cook until the sauce is thick. Sprinkle the rest of the cheese over the top of the cauliflower and bake it in a medium oven until the cheese is melted and the cauliflower browns slightly. Serve while hot. CHERRY PIE HINT I have found this to be a good kink in making cherry or berry pies. Over the lower crust, before adding fruit or sugar, sprinkle lightly with fine bread crumbs. They prevent a soggy crust and enhance the flavor. ONE PLEASED Avoid Petting Parties To my mind, petting parties are the cause of many unhappy marriages. Surely, for there are no other faults, and this reason alone could cause most any girl to stop and think about being free and easy with her caresses. A marriage based merely upon physical attraction alone is never a success. And, after all, petting either compuls or repels physical attraction. Two years ago I married a man with whom I thought I was very much in love. Imagine my horen when at the end of six weeks I discovered it was merely physical attraction, which had already begun to wane, and not love that bound us together. We have no tastes pleasures or interest in common, so anyone can imagine how unhappy we are. And decided to try and make the best of it, as a divorce or ever a separation would cause great unhappiness to our parents. For the sake of your own lain- miness girls, don't indulge in petting or you may find yourself in the same position. Before you marry be very, very sure you have the same tastes and interests, so if you are blessed with children they may be raised in an atmosphere of love and sympathy. I love children, you I pray we may never have any to suffer for our mistaken idea of "joe"—just Twenty. Plant Window Boxes No single thing about a house lands in the same peculiar charm and attractiveness as do window boxes, fresh and cool beauty spots, they lend to the pretinence the long to window ledges and porch rails to the sides of outside steps, to the windows of office buildings, school houses, garages, and many other places. If you cannot buy them ready-made, a carpenter will make them for you. See that holes are buried in Whether you plant them with flowers or foliage depends upon the location. Foliage will flourish in the shade while flowers need more sunlight. Be sure that the soil is well fertilized. The Vinec Vine is a favorite window box plant. The wandering Jew will grow in the shade and makes a mass of green foliage. Enchidna Ivy and trailing vines are good for the tropics. Asparagus and Boston ferns are good, a small rubber plant can be used at times to advantage. Begonias and geraniums lend bright spots of colors. Many varieties of Petunias are delightful for window, zox growing, Heliotropes, Lobelia and Marguerites are favorites, for this sort of planting. Poly lanthas bush baby rambler roses will do well with the proper care. Sweet allysum and sandytuff are good order plants.

Up the truck came long freight train. It was going fast for it needed a good start to reach the long hill just ahead. Both hit the crossing at the same time. Crash! And the great limousine was no more. I had been sitting in the front porch swing, and jumped when I heard the noise and hurried the crossing.

Several bones were broken, and he had many bad cuts from the glass had many bad cuts from the glass of the car. He was carried to my home—the only place near the physician was bound to the broken bones he was set and the cuts he had. The doctor said would be impossible for the injured man to be moved for several weeks. During those weeks I nursed and cared for him. When the time came that he was able to be moved we could not part from each other. To make a short story shorter, we are now married and have a nice little house.

It was the Elks Ball at "Atlantic City" and everything was at the highest esteem. The ball ceased at 3 p. m., I a mere child of nine, thought it was breakfast time and went to purchase a ginger ale from a barry stand on the maplewalk. At once my mother quickly threw it away and everyone who had just left the Million Dollar pier began to look at me.

SOME HIRED SUITS FIT AND SOME DON'T. Judge Clark Smith tells me that he thinks the rules of the Druid Hill Park Swimming Pool ought to be enforced. If the law says that a man has to take a shower and wash off the dirt before he gets in the pool, I think he ought to be made to do it. The pool is a place to swim, not to take a bath. Outside of that, all of the four thousand who swim out there every week have a good time. There is the youngest judge on the bench, Gobert MacBeth, who learned how to dive in the army, and when he goes in splashes water clear up on the roof of the dressing room. Clarence Pendleton is a diver too, but his specific gravity is less than that of Judge MacBeth. Then there is Life Guard Allan Watty, who "ducks" the fresh boys who won't mind, telling them to look at the pretty moving pictures underneath the water. Professor Hots Pennington runs the whole pool, and sometimes he gives out a big bathing suit to a little man, and a little bathing suit to a big man. There are no mirrors around, and there isn't any way for a feller to see how he looks. Of course there is always on hand the fat lady who wants her thin "steady" to hold her up while she learns to swim. Only thing I forgot on this cartoon was the little metal tags they give you on a string when you check your clothes. My tag was on my mind all the while I was swimming.

TRACK MEET In 4th of July Meet Stanford Breaks His Own 120- Pound Class Broad Jump Record SCOTT BREAKS TWO Four city athletic records were smashed in the track and field meet held under the auspices of the Playground Athletic League on July Fourth. W. Stanford, who incidentally turing three first places, broke his dividing points in the meet by canceled the highest number of own city record for class, broke broad jump, 120-point for class, by one foot, leaping 2 inches against his old mark of 17 feet 2 inches. P. Scott, who stood next to Stanford in points scored by capturing two first and second place in the unlimited class event, broke two city records in this class: the running broad jump and the shot put. His leap for the jump was 18 ft. flat, a half inch farther than the former record of 17 feet 11 inches. In the shot put his tes was so wide, what phenomenon was so with the given city mark for he jumped the 19m peeler 55 feet 3 inches; four feet and two inches beyond the old mark. In the 100-pound class, N. Talley who also won two first places, lowered the standing, hop, step and jump, helping his leap being 22 feet 10 inches. SCMMARIES 85:POUND CLASS 20.

Hilldale Wins; Lloyd Injured Bn C M Prumbuck BY C. M. BRUNOUS Hildale staged a savage eight-inning attack on Oscar, the brilliant split-second Eastern Colored League game here today, and when the smoke of the battle had cleared away, Hildale had sent four runs over the plate, winning the game by the score of 6 to 4. Going into the 8th inning, with the score 4 to 2 against them, Santop opened with a single to right field, Thomas then struck out. George Johnson singled to right field, and Santop slid in to third base safely, cluding Portuondo, with a hook slide. July Johnson then doubled to the seats in right field, scoring Santop. With the Cubans in field playing in, Allen crossed them complete, putting a left center, scoring George and July Johnson, then beat out an infield hit, and Briggs singled to center, admitting Allen with the fourth run of the inning. Captain Lloyd, the brilliant leader of Hildale, wrenched his left knee severely in the 5th inning sliding into that big, being carried off the field by his teammates, being rushed to the hospital, where an examination showed a bad wrench.

PLAYERS MUST STUDY THE GAME Champion Tennis Expert Says Present Style of Game Is Antique BY EDGAR G. BROWN Chicago, July 12.—I were out to Skokie, the $2,000,000,000 Country Club in the aristocratic suburb of Glencoe, 30 miles from Chicago to see some of the best jerk sharks of the world in action. There were Tilden, world's charm and Manuel Alonzo, the Spanish star as well as our old friend Walter Westbrook of Detroit and George Lott, Jr. the coming world's wonder, the seventeen-year-old id of Chicago. But the really significant observation to which I wish to call your attention pertains to the boxer Sandy Weiner, the protégé of Champion Tilden. He is fourteen years old. He played a better game of tennis than any colored player in America. Boys if you wish to play a good game of tennis, if you wish people to have more respect for you than most sensible people have for the so-called present first ten colored players, American out and out and Sandy Weiner play or, watch Tilden, Johnson, Richard or any city champion including Galveston's Texas. After that go to the library and look for the tennis shelf. At Skokie, a Spaniard, a Japanese, and two Philippines participated in the Illinois State tournament besides the American teams. The most representative though we have the finest athletes in the world. Why? No, do not be too hasty, it was not because of color, for one was invited, but look around and you will see that the men who have been at the top in our tournaments have not played the modern American game and so the youth has not developed because they patterned after the obsolete games of the men at the top and the players who had successful American game nor have they studied the scientific and fundamental theories underlying this great sport.

ER'S The People's Store Baltimore, Md. w Street Post Anywhere "POP" WATKINS IS WORLD'S GREATEST BASE BALL SCOUT Discovered John McGraw, Hughic Jennings, John Hummel, Al Schact and Other Great Diamond Stars IN BASEBALL 44 YEARS Now Devotes His Time To Training Players for Professional Colored Clubs Ex Aire Sports Editor of the food or so spectators who missed the double-header be- gone the Black Sox and the Haven- ed Belt Sox at Maryland Park, July Friday, doubtless there were not a hit-down who knew that the visi- sors were being piloted by a colored man who has been called the greate- est baseball scout in the world, an "top" Watkins. For the benefit of the reader who may not know what the term base- ball means, we will explain. A scout is a man, usually an old baseball player engaged by the man- ager of a team to go out through the country and look over the work of the young amateurs in what is now in baseball parlance as the big leagues or sometimes dubbed "big leagues." That is to say: he must be able to make up a candidate to the extent of ignoring whether he has the intelligence to submit to the discipline of organized baseball management and all the same time he can be unable to make up a candidate to bring out the best that is him. And above all this the source of ability to see whether there is anything him to be taught on. The business of scouting has reached its highest point of efficiency in the longer term, as it marries to man every day in the quest of new blood and their teams. CATKINS NATIONAL LEAGUE SUIT It was as a result in the National league that "Pop" Watkins gained as table. Born in Augusta, Ga., sixteen years ago, he was taken when made a youngster to Brooklyn, N.Y., where he was raised. In school days he naturally played in the back court ball and in these games his love of the game. Becoming early manhood, he got the game with both feet, so to speak, and played with the leading senior clubs of the time among whom he became a member of the finest Old Cuban Giants of which he was a member for twenty-five years. Those old days, there was less league in the major leagues, most playing colored clubs than there is today, and Watkins played many a game against the big white clubs. THREE RIDS BROKEN BY WAGNER As a souvenir of those early information bottles, the veteran player will carries a number of scars. On occasion while playing first-base he had since rips broken when the famous Hans Wagner off the Pittsburgh Pirates crushed into him while he was taking a throw from short, tracking turtle of his rips. Another souvenir is a scarred lip that was split by a pitched ball delivered by none other than the famous Christy Mathewson. "Pop"哑哑 as a player thus became common knowledge to the managers of big barge clubs and in teams sought to take the position of scout and coach for young players. FOUND FETURE STARS Among the many youngsters he discovered back in those days who later became the greatest stars of the game were John McGraw, the famous pilot of the world champion Giants, Hughes dennings, who won fame with the Detroit Titers, John Hammett, Al Schacht, and others. back Dunn of the Baltimore Orioles once used to toss them into the mitt of the famous colored scout. One of the greatest feats ever accomplished by a coach he performed in 1904 when he coached Manhattan College. New York, sending thirteen youngsters up to the big leagues in one season, a record. COACHED COLORED SCHOOLS During later years, he devoted himself to coaching teams of the colored southern schools, and hung a team of young players, putting them for the professional clubs. Richardson and Miller are the Black team are two players that began the game under his coaching. Many coached players famous today, first began under "Pop's" tutelage. The team which he brought here had only been playing together about a month, he told us, and when this fact was considered, he regarded them as doing fairly well. Only few moments in the present, the players was not necessary to see him, but everything except blood, father to them. He did not abuse them when they made bad plays, but talked to them as a father would to a son. At one point, one of them struckout and deliberately broke the bat as he came back to the dugout. Many a manager would have seemed at this action, but "pop" didn't get the response he asked the player what did he want to do that for. "I'll pay for it," the latter replied. "Yes, I know you'll pay, that AH, A HORSE-SHOE, THAT MEAN'S GOOD LUCK FOR YOURS TRULY LET'ER OUT, ED. HE'S GAININ' ON US Call VErnon 6016 AMOS HOKUM—T AH, A HORSE-SHOE. THAT MEANS GOOD LUCK FOR YOURS TRULY is what you always say, but you've never got anything," was his mild retort, and the incident was closed. Sixty-six years old, forty-four of these years spent in baseball and still in the game. More than this, still holding his own with the young-er, the it comes to stumma for the old-er, the it comes to that the team came here by truck from Utica, N. Y., his home, and hadn't slept in a bed for several nights. HAS SON HERE Despite his many years on the diamond, Mr. Watkins has found time to marry twice and raise a family of three sons and a daughter. One son, Raymond Watkins, lives in this city and is employed in the local postoffice, the others are members of the military. He was very much worried on his trip here for he had just received a telegram that his wife, whose picture, that of a youngish and very comely woman, he showed us proudly, had been taken suddenly ill since he had left. Shaking hands with "Pop" Watkins one got the impression of a man who was as young as any youngster on his mother's return and still able to play rings around many a colt who impresses him as a ball player. SIKI DROPS NILLES Senegalese Fighter's Punch Makes Opponent Fall Forward Paris, July 8.—Phillip (Battling) Ski, the Senegalese, came back today into prominence as a a when, in the second round of a fifteen-round contest he knocked out Marcel Niles, white, former champion of France. In the last three months both Carpenter and Ski have beaten Niles and the two must now meet for the championship of France. For the fight today Siki consented to train serious. He was in exertion shape when he entered the ring, although the betting favored Nilles. The first round went somewhat in the favor of the white man. More than once he broke through Siki's guard and landed his blow but without enough strength to affect the black man. Toward the end of the round Siki, who had been on the defensive, suddenly sprung out and landed a grimph right and left to his back. In the big stadium one could hear the sound of the cows, but Nilles seemed undisturbed and landed a straight left on Siki's face which brought In the second round, as in the first, Siki's attack was to the body of the former champion, who replied with a left hook to the jaw. The two men clinched and were just breaking away when Siki handed another windmill left on the point of Nilse's jaw. The former champion stood stationary for a second. Then his knees gave way and he sank to the floor. He took only the count of three and began to struggle. Scarred was he on his feet, his hands hanging at his side, when the Scandese sprang forward and handed two more on his face which held the former champion low for a count of ten. In his corner, meanwhile, Siki whose real name is Louis Fail, was doing a Dervish dance surrounded by half a dozen countrymen who were throwing flowers at him. His victory was not popular with the crowd and there were no such scenes as took place on the day he laid low the national idol who in his recent fight with Nilles, needed eight rounds before he managed to hand the knockout blow.

"Whether the Black Sox finish at the top, or at the foot of the Eastern League, I am in favor of such a series, and will do everything in my power to bring it about. Furthermore, it is no more than justice to the fans of both sections of the country, that they be given such a series. "Mr. Rossiter, president of the Black Sox Club, is also in favor of the series, and Mr. Jas. Keenan, who was here recently with his club, the Lincoln Giants, is also for it. And we have decided to bring the matter before the next meeting of the owners of the clubs in the Eastern League, which takes place the middle of this month."

The Bacharach Giants made it three in a row from the Cuban Stars here today in a hard-fought game 5-4. UPSETS HIT EA Hilldale Loses Winning Streak and Cubans Slip While Other Clubs Notch Up A Peg Philadelphia, July 12.—After having their winning streak of seventeen straight games, smashed by "Rats" Henderson and the rest of the Bacharach Giants, the Hilldale Club has been held to a fifty-fity break with all league opponents, the Atlantic City crew, Lincoln Giants and Cuban Stars each holding the league leaders to an even break, this however did not pull Ed. Bolden's pace-makers out of first place. The Cubans missed a golden opportunity to swap them with the Hilldale outfielder they dropped last Saturday's contest in the leading rounds of play, after handing the leaders a set-back in Thursday's tilt, and then journeyed to Baltimore where they were pushed further down by dropping a twin bill to the Bacharach Giants.

FLOWERS A MARVEL IN BEATING TUT Atlanta Speed Boy Hit Jackson With Everything He Had Oly The Asso, Negro Press, Atlanta, Ga., July 12—"Tiger" Washington Court House, Ohio, all over the ring Tuesday night in one of the best fights seen here in years. The Georgia middleweight who re- cently beat Panama Joe Ganso, who only 161 pounds, Jackson, who bost his bounds by failing to make 175 pounds, scaled 185. No decision was rendered. Wagner decision, however, were all in favor of Flowers. Flowers was on the offensive in every round, Jackson deciding to let the Atlanta force the issue, always with the thought of finally delivering the finisher. Nothing but the fact that Jackson is one of the most rugged batters that has ever appeared in this city saved him in the fight, taking the count as early as the fifth round, for by that time he had received every legal wahoo known to the profes- And he was the recipient of some later that Tiger must have invented for this special occasion. Flowers, however, had no more chance to stop the Ohio warrior than a gnat has to bowl over a Stone Mountain Jackson, like most fighters of type is a shagger pure and simple. He packs a right of passage to murder, but the thick phantom that danced in and off offered a target too elastic. Jackson spent his time brushing off taps to head and stomach waiting for an opportunity to drive through a right that would have ended the battle abruptly. The bout pleased the big crowd which was about evenly divided between black and white people. TEAM CHANGES NAME Cannon, N. J. July 12—The Wormley's All-Stars are now known as the Leo F. C.

The first game with the Cubans was won by the Royals in the ninth inning, the Giants two runs for a two-one victory, while the second game went to the Cubans, they were forced to go fourteen innings to beat out Dick Redding and his nubs. Both the Baltimore Black Sox and the Lincoln Giants have got off the skids and are playing a better brand of ball, the Sox breaking their losing streak at the expense of the Lincoln Giants, taking a double-header from Giants when the clubs meet for the first time this season and Lincoln Giants in turn trimming the Sox the third game of the series. The Sox moved on to New York last Sunday and split even with the Lincoln Giants. With the Browns in third position and the Sox fourth, keen interest is manifested among the league fans in the three-game series which will be played between these two teams at Baltimore the coming Sunday and Monday.

Jim Wazen MIXED BOUTS NEVER CAUSED RACE TROUBLE Leo Johnson, Joe Gans, Geo. Dixon And Joe Walcott Fought Dozens of White Men In Past Without A Single Disturbance Mutual Association of Eastern Colored Ball Clubs BASEBALL Baltimore Black Sox VS BACHARACHS 2 Games - SUN., JULY 14th -2 Games ONE GAME MONDAY MARYLAND BASEBALL PARK, WESTPORT Plenty of Good Seats New Bleacher Stands --- By Charles F. Muthiam in the New York Herald With the talk relative to a Wilks-Dempsey lightened, and with New York or New Jersey as the two logical spots for staging such a match, the mixed bout bugbuzz will be directly disappear from the Empire State. During the regime of the Horton and Frawley law box contests between colored fighters and whites were permitted, and it was in the Frawley law period that the stupid rule against decision beats was put into effect. It is true that many erroneous decisions are given by judges at the present time, but in the main the rulings are fair. The advantage of decisions on points is that they tend to encourage the to greater orders. This is because orders of championship matches, which in this State can be decided on decisions by the judges. LEONARD FOUGHT LEO JOHNSON At the time mixed bouts were allowed by the Frawley law, the argument was advanced that ring contests between the two races might tend to stir up racial feeling, and even precipitate riots. To the astonishment of many mixed bouts were fought with great disorder attended the mixed contests danger to the sport of boxing, less than was the case in bouts between white boxers. Benny Leonard, shortly after he became champion met Lee Johnson, the best colored lightweight in the first round. The bout took place September 21, 1917, and while there was in attendance a large crowd of colored and white, no disorder followed the knockout. On the other hand, when Leonard met Frankie Conifrey, the "Pride of the Fire Department," and knocked him out in six rounds September 24, 1917, a startler at a box that wrecked the star, C. Lenox avenue and 110th street. DIXON FOUGHT IN NEW ORLEANS As a matter of fact, there never has been a race riot due to boxing matches, between the races. George Dixon went to New Orleans in 1892 and knocked out Jack Skelly in eight rounds. There was no disturbance and Dixon lived to return North and win many more bouts from white boxers, losing at last to Terry McGovern. Dixon lost another notable bout in the Leuco A. C., the victor being Ben Jordan. English featherweight champion. The Briton, who had come here especially to get a bout for the world's title, drubbed Little Chocolate most thoroughly in a 25-round contest, after which Jordan discovered that Dixon did not hold the American title. Solly Smith was lost on the Coast, and while Smith insisted that he was entitled to a match with Jordan, the California was elbowed out of the affair. Dixon was one of the first boxers to lose a title and then regain it. Smith, after his rebuff in the matter of a contest with Jordan, made a match with Dave Sullivan, and lost his championship. Smith suffered a broken arm early in the battle and was compelled to withdraw. DINON VS. SULLIVAN Dixon then got a match with Sullivan and stopped him in eleven wounds. McGovern held his tilt till he knocked out by McGovern in eight rounds. All of these mixed bouts were con shoted without disorder, and they furnish thrilling entertainment for the ticket buyers. Joe Gans and Jade Wandt also boxed numerous contests with whirlpools during the borton law, one of his most popular matches with that with "Ethos" (the Broadway A. C. in 1892. This was previous to the time that Gans won the title. McFadden was not nicknamed "Ethos" because of foul use of his elbows, but because of his blocking skill. No matter where an opponent aimed his blows, it was almost certain that his nists would collide with one of McFadden's elbows. McFadden's elbows, the prime weapon of the bout, Gans and he gradually wore down his opponent and knocked him out in the twenty-third round. This caused a sensation at the time, for Gans was regarded as invincible. GANS WON WITH ONE PENCH Gans proved his skill on May 12, 1902, when he went to Fort Erie, Ont., and knocked out lightweight champion Frank Erne with the first punch he let fly in the first round. This feat still stands as a record in quick knockouts in lightweight champick knockouts in lightweight championship contests. McFadden was unfortunate in one respect, and that was in scoring knockout over that show below the late champion, and over George Lavine after the Saginaw kid lost the title. Joe Walecki was also a prolific performer in the ring with white boxers. Although the Black Demon was but a 140 pound, he made a speciality of knocking out middleweights and heavyweights. He stopped Dan Creedon in 6 rounds, and knocked out Joe Chywiak in seven rounds. Both of these affairs took place in this city and were not followed by any disorder. But for the studied disdainment of other white heavyweights to meet Walecki in the ring he would have scored more victories. He is alleged to have stopped Tom Schoen in training quarters. Walecki's greatest error was in attempting to whip Kid Lavigne at 133 pounds ringside, a striking weight for the colored fighter. At this normal weight of 140 pounds Walecki would have made short work of Lavigne. JACK JOHNSON Pugilistic history is replete with the achievements of Negro boxers, and if any serious trouble has followed a bout with a white man the incident has been blamed on the sport charged to the race was put there by Jack Johnson. It does not follow that boxing should be abolished because of Johnson's actions, any more than that baseball should be prohibited because of the world's series semifinals of 1929. Boxers's block tactics are legitimate a form of port as the athletes in any other rough vigorous pastime. Athenians In Court Athenians In Court Through Attorney Gobert E. Macbeth, Granville W. Earnes, president of the Athenian Athletic Club, has filed an answer to the suit for $100 instituted in the Baltimore City Court by the Bachchap Rasun Company.

But the best way to swat to eliminatate the sources of the trouble, to get fly's breeding places.

The recent meeting of the Farmer-Labor Party, although this third party hope went on the rocks because of the radical element present, it was evident from the very beginning that a bid to the organized working masses, formed the basis of their hope. In his recent epoch-making address in the West President Harding set out with unmistakable emphasis the right of labor to be heard as an organization and announced the retreat of that arch enemy of organized labor. Judge Gary, of the great steel industries, from his 12-hour day program. Less than twenty years ago organized labor was hardly considered politically, but today no presidential campaign manager would think of omitting a serious appeal to the labor vote. To the Negro this is very interesting, for if ever there is formed anything resembling a labor party, because of his natural alignment to this group the Negro voter is bound to play a big part.

Not only have the leaders in the white re to say the last word in human development, be causes they have made serious blunders. Hum derstandings and unhappiness pile higher a about us and national dissensions and wars o wreck the hopes of world peace. It is little wonder that some of the so-call ern" nations like Japan, reject many of the whi tions when they send their emissaries to garner of world civilization, for wherein do these excel. Not only have the leaders in the white races failed to say the last word in human development, but in many cases they have made serious blunders. Human misunderstandings and unhappiness pile higher and higher about us and national dissensions and wars continue to wreck the hopes of world peace. It is little wonder that some of the so-called "heathern" nations like Japan, reject many of the white institutions when they send their emissaries to garner in the best of world civilization, for wherein do these institutions excel. In Law? No. In every center of white civilization, and especially in this country, law and order are trailing in the dust. Discrimination, double dealing and acts of barbarism that shock even the uncivilized groups make the reign of law here a mockery. In Religion? No. With a hollow hypocrisy white civilization has wrung the heart and soul out of Christianity and made a mockery out of that cardinal principle—the brotherhood of mankind—upon which Jesus Christ founded His Gospel. In Industry and Commerce? No. They have invented sweat shops, murder farms, and mills that grind out flesh and blood along with iron and steel. They have organized types of slavery whereby parasitic groups live and suck the life blood of herded toilers. They have enslaved helpless children and bound womb-filled mothers to wheels of industry. America has increased the need of prisons, asylums and hospitals where humanity crushed by the system flows in ever-increasing numbers. America boasts of her institutions, but we are certain that there are some forms of this civilization it would be best for our group to let pass by.

AROUND CHICAGO AROUND CHICAGO By Edgar G. Brown Staff Correspondent of Service We have heard much of late from rumors of war, to the 100 per cent Americanism of the liberty bond buyers and the $30.00 per month boys who carried the gun but few Chiegoons know of or are acquainted with the work of the soldiers of service known to thousands of unfortunate and new arrivals as the "brown skins" memorial of the city of Chicago's Visiting Nurses staff. These women are rendering a great service here just as their sisters of mercy are doing for New York, St. Louis and other large cities where this writer has talked with them and has seen their effective work. On my desk is a notice of the Nurses' Union which meets here August 21-24 headed by an alumnus of the Provident Hospital of Chicago, Miss Carrie E. Bullock, with offices in Chicago's "loop." We are glad to see our women force ahead, but above all we are happiest in the thought that they are helping to make the race bigger, cleaner and easier. Notably he interested in the convention in Chicago, but the whole race shall look forward to the things they do here. "They also serve who only stand and wait." Chicago $15,000.00 Earle B. Dickerson, member of the Board of Liberty Life Insurance Co., of Illinois, and recently appointed as the assistant of Chicago's city attorney, received the award for "Best Lawyer in the William E. Dover, just before he left for a ten days' rest. In the words of his excellence, "I am glad to see this young colored democratic lawyer making good. Mr. Dickerson by his knowledge of the law has saved the city $15,000.00 and I am indebted pleased, because I have been able to save the taxpayers money." Attorney Dickerson in his pleadings for the city brought out the technicality, that the alias writ had been improperly issued. He succeeded in getting the writ quashed and the suit against the city dismissed. The J. B. Gregg said: "This is an unusual victory for so young a man against one of Chicago's most reputable law firms." $100,000.00 Increase Since April 1st The Binga State Bank's quarterly statement published July 1 shows nearly $100,000 increase over the deposits for April.

Down at Tuskegee Hospital for U. S. colored war veterans, it has been found out that the Koo Koos stand for 100 per cent American greed. Despite the fact that the new hospital is in Alabama where the State law forbids white women waiting on colored people, and where there is always talk about Negroes staying to themselves, white residents of Tuskegee are trying to force the War Veterans' Bureau to put sufficient white people on the staff so that they will control it. An Associated Negro Press dispatch correctly sums up the situation when it declares that it is not the desire of whites to force themselves into a colored hospital where they are not wanted, but it is the insane desire of a small group of politicians to control the expenditure of the $1,250,000 annually which will be required to run the hospital. In Mr. Watson's cartoon printed above is represented the Alabama Klansmen attempting to frighten off the colored physician, who is aiding the colored ex-service man. Forty years ago, the Negro that this sheet and pillow-case covered a ghost; today he knows it but hides a cowardly, lawless, human being, whose hand is stretched out in insatiable greed for that which is his neighbor's.

We congratulate Mr. Blinga on his progressive spirit, as simultaneously with the fine duly statement of the condition of our biggest financial institution we note that the Blinga real estate department has purchased the world famous corner of 323 East State Street and erect the most modern bank and office building owned by colored people in the world. What does the future hold for our young men and women? WHY HE CHANGED (Leading business men tell how they began their careers and why they picked their present occupations.) Mr. C. H. Jones, proprietor of the Royal Palace Hotel, started life as a farm hand in Prince George County, Va. at a salary of 40 cents a day. Coming to Baltimore in 1890, he went to work at Sparrows Point as a day laborer, there earning 12½ cents an hour. By 1895 he had saved some money started a wholesale and retail produce business in Lafayette, with a number of local men organized the Southern Life Insurance Co. Ten years later he gave up the produce business in order to devote all of his time to insurance. The present sight of the Royal Palace Hotel was bought in 1915 at a receiver's sale, with the intention of building an apartment house with two store fronts: Bu Mr. Jones was asked why he changed his mind, from building an apartment house into putting up a hotel, to which he answered: "I saw the need of a place of accommodation, stopping in Baltimore, realizing that this would be a good investment, I started building a hotel." The structure was completed 1921 and in a short time became one of the most popular hostielers grown to such an extent that it has been found necessary to build an addition.

Samuel Coleridge-Taylor was the guest of Coleridge-Taylor Choral Union of Washington, D.C. during the great Coleridge-Taylor Festival. This illustrious musician conducted two concerts in Washington and another in Baltimore. During his visit to Baltimore, he was called upon to conduct the famous United States Marine band, being the only one of his race to have been so honored. After visiting Boston and conducting his famous "Hiwatha" and "Songs of Slavery," he returned to England in December and became the conductor of "The Hotel Charles Society," the greatest organization of its kind in the world. 13. What became of the Pyramid of Cheops? The Pyramid of Cheops, at Gizeh in Egypt, although erected 50 centuries ago, is still in a good state of preservation and an object of profound wonder to successive generations of visitors. Cheops, who was the first King of the 4th Egyptian dynasty, desiring a fine tomb, employed 300,000 men to erect this pyramid which stands 418 feet high and covers 12 acres of ground, the stone blocks used in its construction weighing 2½ tons each. 14.

The committee on publication of the All-Race Conference sent out a story under the caption of "Kelly Miller's All-Race Conference." At least several editors published the data under that caption. This was misleading and unfortunate. I claim no proprietorship in this movement. I fear that too much Miller may grind the grist too fine. I have no copyright on the movement, and claim no pride of priority. Among my numerous faults and imperfections—and my enemies impute to me many, while even my friends acknowledge a few—self-seeking and self-conceit can not be listed among them. I would gladly office myself from the movement entirely if I deemed such offence advantageous to the main proposition. such enactment advantageous to the student. The All-Race Conference is as its name implies a conference for all schools of opinion and shades of thinking within the circumference of our racial interests. I did not all the conference. This call was issued by the six civil rights organizations which assembled in New York City last March. Because of my known interest and devotion to the idea I was made chairman of the central committee on arrangements, associated on this committee are members of the civil rights organizations above referred to as well as numerous other eminent persons representative of the various organizations and attitudes of the race. activities of the law. The committee wants every organization to feel that it has an equal share and an equal voice in this conference. If I have been active and zealous in this behalf it was only because the leadership through the committee was imposed in me. (God forbid that morrowness and personal jealousy which so often frustrate our efforts at union should raise its hideous head in the proceedings leading up to or growing out of the Negro Sanhedrin. or growing out of the Negro Samurai.

Makes Fisk University the first adequately endowed race. Fisk University is not a university, but its field of work mainly to the collegiate. The name was assumed when every little bit was made great by assuming a sonorous man either to stick to the work of collegiate level, and to the work, or to expand its operations so that University grade and degree. Is should assume too. Fisk is one of our very best colleges. As a girl, she is the very best. By spreading out it become too thin. Nashville is doubtless deserved of our great educational centers. This will be the union of the several institutions now located in Harry Medical School has recently been lifted and assured on a million dollar foundation. In this we may expect to see the several institutions incorporated into a great University, with Fisk as a center. Is happy fate might well be predicted for Nashville, Atlanta, and Washington would become the Negro Universities. Generation ago, Gammon Theological Seminary Mr. Gammon in the sum of three quarters of the preparation of ministers of the gospel in the Church. Hampton and Tuskegee have received such for the perpetuity of the industrial type of university is under the support of the Presbyterian and is backed by its moral endorsement and university is supported mainly by Federal appropriation from the student body. If the annual appropriated at a fair percent, his institution too could endure. But Congress acknowledges no permanent support this institution, and consequently it must be solicited from year to year. Negro colleges should unite in congratulating of their class to secure a permanent endowment in certain of its permanence which must live on tuition from students. Let us hope colleges will shortly share in Fisk's good fortune. Some criticism has been waged against the term "Sanhedrin." A good Baptist brother same to me in some excrement, and demanded that the word be changed, as in the minds of many the most significant meaning of "Sanhedrin" is that it was the body that condemned our Lord. The official name is "All-Race Conference." Sahadhrin is a sort of rhetorical synonym which more easily fixes the movement in the popular imagination. The term originally was applied to the highest Jewish Court, composed of the leader and elders of Israel. In 1806, Napoleon Bonaparte called a Sahadhrin of the Jews in his wide dominion and requested them to formulate stated relations with the gentle world, in all matters wherein they functioned apart. The outcome of this deliberation held the basis of dealing of the Jews with the Gentiles down to the present time. to the nations of the earth he blest including even the sons of Africa. The Negro Sanhedrin is calculated 10 assume something of the sense and significance of its Israeliish prototype. By the way, I notice that a call has recently been out for an all-Jewish Conference. The scriptures are daily being fulfilled; through the seed of Abraham shall all the nations of the earth he blest including even the sons of Africa. The Endowment Of Fisk University Fisk University has just secured an endowment of a million dollars. The General Education Board made a conditional grant of half a million which was quickly matched by friends of the University with contributions of like amount. This makes Fiske University the first adequately endowed college for the Negro race. Fiske University is not a university, but a college. It limits its field of work mainly to the collegiate grade of instruction. The name was assumed when every little institution felt that it was made great by assuming a somorous name. Fiske must choose either to stick to the work of collegiate level, and readjust the name to the work, or to expand its operations so as to cover courses of University grade and degree. It would be infortunate if she should assume too high a flight. Fiske is one of our very best colleges. As a finishing school for girls, she is the very best. By spreading out too wide, she might become too thin. Nashville is dullness destined to form one of our great educational centers. This will be brought about by the union of the several institutions now located there. The McMahary Medical School has recently been lifted to class one, and assured on a million dollar foundation. In the next generation, we may expect to see the several institutions in Nashville federated into a great University, with Fiske as the collegiate center. A like happy fate might well be predicted for Atlanta. Then Nashville, Atlanta, and Washington would become the seats of our great Negro Universities. A half generation ago, Gammon Theological Seminary was endowed by Mr. Gammon in the sum of three quarters of a million dollars, for the preparation of ministers of the gospel in the Methodist Episcopal Church. Hampton and Tuskegee have received several millions each for the perpetuity of the industrial type of education. Lincoln University is under the support of the Presbyterian General Assembly, and is backed by its moral endorsement and endowment. Howard University is supported mainly by Federal appropriations and by tuition from the student body. If the annual appropriations could be capitalized at a fair percent, his institution too could boast of secure foundation. But Congress acknowledges no permanent obligation to support this institution, and consequently it must rely upon appropriations solicited from year to year. All Negro colleges should unite in congratulating Fiske as the first of their class to secure a permanent endowment. No institution is certain of its permanence which must live on annual solicitation and tuition from students. Let us hope that the other colleges will shortly share in Fiske's good fortune.

In my view it is needless to do so until we can disentangle the grotesque features from its deeper meaning, and the ephemeral from its permanent meaning. I promise my readers at some early date to undertake an analytical treatment of the gospel as it is in Garvey.

The General Education Board The colored newspapers are too prone to feature the news feature of an item before they determine its quality for truth. Charges and countercharges have been flying thick and fast. There are two things which Negro newspapers find it easy to do—to praise, and to condemn. Major Moton has been extolled and denounced from one end of the Negro press to the other. Few if any have stopped to study the actual situation and his delicate relations to it. All Negroes desire a colored personnel for the Tuskegee Hospital. We are more likely to secure the object desired by a calm and accurate understanding of the situation, and by same cooperation, in securing it. It is easy to condemn the man whose head is in the lion's mouth for not trying conclusions with the lion. It requires absolutely no courage for an editor to sit in his sanctum a thousand miles away from the turmoil and denounce the cautiousness of those who are immersed in the midst thereof. If we wish to gain a Negro personnel we can never secure it by Negro personalities. The General Education Board Do you know that Booker T. Washington deserves the chief credit for the establishment of the General Education Board? It was he who first convinced Mr. Rockefeller how a million dollars could wisely be spent upon education of the South. Whence arose this great foundation and its mighty millions. But after adopting Mr. Washington's idea, the trustees refused to elect him as one of its trustees. Even he was not free from the slings and arrows of race prejudices. Association with Southern white men would be too intimate and close. Mr. William H. Baldwin told the writer a short while before he died that he intended to see to it that Dr. Washington's genius be recognized by having him chosen on the Board. But he died without the realization.
