CRAZY GUARDS MIND PATIENTS the south coast in all the large cities of the country. All of us were told by one of Sikla's staff that numbers of the police who doubtless took their cure from one of the local sports writers who tried to be funny, have been hanging around the Gayety to the point little short of genuine annoyance since the Senegaless came to town. While the Monrovia College stands as a monument of your labors, this diploma goes to express the endorsement and approval of those for whose benefit such a structure has been erected, and at the same time to show that you have attained to this degree of distinction by the course of merit. BATTLING SIKI TURNS DOWN A HAIRCUT Senegalese Fighter Tells Afro Sports Editor It's His Major Line of Defense Bent upon getting a close-up of Batting Siki, the Senegalese boxer who is appearing at the Gayet Theatre this week, the writer trailed him one afternoon this week until the Battler was finally located dining in a cafe on Drudl Hill avenue. We entered and walked up to Siki's table and was greeted by a smiling, soft-voiced, mild-mannered young man neatly dressed in a grey suit four-in-hand tie into which was stuck a scarf pin (not a diamond). We were not exactly surprised at the gentlemens demeanor of the Battler, for we, like most of the other colored foes we had been training to mimic of Siki's "wild" behavior, knew that they were lice pure and simple. But we must admit that we were deeply impressed. Here sat the "wild" man dining, defy handling his knife and fork and using his mask with the grace of a Chesterfield. The first thing Siki did after greeting us was to ask in a dee (we, too), "What is it that people who for, get this little courtesy in a similar circumstance). We declined, and then began our little interview. RECOGNIZES AFRO CARTOON We had in our pocket a copy of last week's Armo in which was a cartoon of the Battler done by Watson, and we showed this to the Battler, "Das me?" he queried as a smile over-spread his face. "This bought our first question, are you going to show out while you are in America?" "No, no, I use in tight." He illustrated by howing, his head showing how he fights with the head down and then tapped on the table to show us exactly what he meant, that the hair protected his skull. "How do you like America?" The Battler shrugged his shoulders, and then said: "Pets good, but not so good we France." And here he gave her a blow of those qualities of breeding, for he hastened to add, "You see everybody like his own country best." ADMIRES AMERICAN GIRLS "What do you think of our American colored girls?" The answer came with a smile and a twinkle in his eye. "Nice, all right." "What's your favorite sport?" The Battler looked at us a little puzzled, which showed that he had indeed grimly grasped our meaning. We tried again. "What do you like dawned on the Battler. "I you for fun?" Our meaning at once play cards, follow horse racing? We got no further, Siki threw his head back with a laugh. "Cards, bah, no fun, no good. Horses no good; you need to be nice." "I like most boxing," he illustrated by doubling his fists in fighting position and then added. "I like football, too." DENIES CAFE FIGHTS "What about those fights in cafes in Paris, we read about?" Sikl's eyes snapped for the first time, and he shot hack instantly: "No vol, I never wink in care for you my life." "Did you ever go to school?" The Battler again hooked puzzled. We tried to recall French word we saw once that meant school, and remembered it. "Did you ever go to school?" He got us at once and answered, "O yes, long time ago, very long." He showed us how long by measuring his height from the floor. "How old were you when you were brought from Senegal to France?" Again, from Senegal to France, the duration of height, accompanied by he word petite. And here the Battler's pride of race and patriotism asserted itself, so that we would not get a false impression of the relation of France and Senegal, for Sikl added hastily: "Senegal, France, all the same." OBJECTS TO COLORED BOXERS "What do you think of Kid Norfolk, and some of the other fighters you are seeing?" The Battler didn't like fight colored man; no good, can't get big enough money; was Sikl's reply. "What are you going to do when you stop fighting for good?" we asked. "I don't know," he answered with a smile, and then added: "Promenade maybe," and he stuck both thumbs under his arms with the mischievous twinkle of his eyes to show us the point. We wore to go. He grasped our hand warmly, and we left, not under the impression that we had been talking to a "wild man," who had little of the veneer of civilization, neither an orang-outang as writers in American papers have described him from time to time, but of leafing the presence of an average young volumed man of sobriety who can be found by the hundreds in the South, in all the large cities of Europe.

CRAZ State Off GUARDS BREAK BOY'S LEG AT CHELTENHAM Prisoners' Aid Society Investigate Use of Broomsticks in Subduing Youth INSTITUTION UNDER FIRE Federation of Labor Claims Boys Are Being Ex-ploited Charges that Early Crowdy, 763 W. Franklin street, had his leg broken by inhuman treatment of guards at Cheltenham may come out in habeas corpus proceedings to be instituted in the courts at an early date. According to Mrs. Mary Selby, mother of the boy, who was committed to this institution sometime ago, her son was beaten by guards with bromsticks at the institution and in one of the altercations had his leg broken. Three guards are said to have dealt with the boy in such a manner as to cause him bodily damage. This case has been called to the attention of the Prisoners' Aid, and an investigation is being made of the charges presented by Mrs. Selyb. Through Attorney Lewis S. Flugge, habeas corpus proceedings will also be instituted to obtain freedom for the body. Attorney Hill, of the Prisoners' Aid, declared guards were not justified in using force unless the boy attacked them. There were other methods of subduing unruly prison- exploited in the interest of the broom industry. Instead of being taught useful occupations in which they may and employment after leaving the institution, they are taken to work in which labor officials say does them no good and hurts the outside worker in the industry. KING KNIGHTS BISHOP BROOKS Monrovia, Liberia, Aug. 27—In the presence of a throng that jammed its spacious auditorium almost to suffocation and which overflowed the campus, the Monrovia College and Industrial Training School was dedicated here Sunday. Ex-president Arthur Barclay, Liberia's grand old man, presided. He introduced President C. B. D. King who delivered a markful dedicatory address. The president's speech was frequently interrupted by applause. The climax came, however, when at the conclusion of his remarks he turned to Bishop W. S. Sampson Brooks of Baltimore who had built the institution* with (funds raised in American and conferred upon him the high honor of Commander Grade Order of the Star of Africa, a most coveted honor conferrable by the Liberian government. Bishop Brooks was so overcome with emotion that he could make no immediate reply, great tears taking the place of words, and this visibly affected the big audience which had come to the ex- to the insignia the President said: This diploma is expressive of the very high consideration and appreciation which the people of the country have. The Chief Executive attach to the energies you have unreservedly spent in this country in the furtherance of education, one of the most essential elements of human civilization and progress. While the Monrovia College stands as a monument of your labor this diploma serves to express the endorsement and approval of those for whose benefit such a structure has been erected, and at the same time to show that you have attained to this degree of distinction by the course of Northward Migration Stayed MAYOR CAUFFIEL WANTED KLAN SUPPORT This Is Said To Be Reason for His Order Requiring Negroes to Leave Johnstown, Pa. INVESTIGATION BEGUN Deputy Attorney General Begins Probe for Governor Pinchot Johnstown, Pa., Sept. 27.—Deputy Attorney General English was here this week, investigating conditions among the Mexicans and colored people on the demand of Governor Pinchot that constitutional rights of all people be safeguarded. Investigation followed an order by Mayor Cauffiel that all colored people and Mexicans not residents here more than seven years leave at once. Following this demand protests from all parts of the country flowed into his office. Even the Mexican Government took cognizance of his and instructed its consul at Philadelphia to make an investigation. Under the stress of protests from leading white and colored citizens of Johnstown and vicinity Mayor Cauffiel finally declared: have done nothing more than use the police I have as mayor of this city to protect white citizens and Negroes, and I do not fear investigation by the Governor or anybody else." Cauffiel's order, which he now claims was merely a request following a gun battle in Rosedale a few days ago when two policemen were shot dead and four others seriously It is said that since Mayor Caufield issued the "order" two weeks ago he has sent more than 100 Negroes to the county jail and about 2,000 Negroes and Mexicans have left Johnstown and vicinity. All brought him on trivial offenses we need $100. Caufield was a candidate for the Republican renomination last Tuesday at the primary election and ran a poor fourth with four men in the field for the nomination. He was accused of taking the stand against the Negroes as "great abused" play that he attentively idealan support, it is claimed on the eve of the election. The Mayor this week received a message from J. S. Wanamaker, president of the American Cotton Association, offering to see that all legal fees and fines of Negroes are paid and offering work for them in the South, where he said their services are needed. "The South does not approve," he said, "the migration of Negroes to the North." Escaped St. Louis Riot Tries Suicide Cleveland, O., Sept. 27.—(A. N. P.)—Dr. Leroy N. Bundy, who attempted suicide here by slashing his throat, while not fully out of danger, continues to improve. His relatives attribute the occurrence to a nervous break-down, and the loss of Rev. Dr. Charles Bundy, a prominent minibishop of Prof. Richard C. Bundy, later of the A. M. E. Church, and a superintendent of the Industrial department of Wilberforce University.

Washington, Sept. 27. It is reported here that President Coordiage has issued an order to all businesses and departments of the government that "there must not any discrimination of employee or citizens treatment of employees or citizens of color" during his administration. Advent of Cold Weather Means Fewer Crowded Trains are Leaving The South WOMEN SEEK FREEDOM Southern Girls Prefer Factories to Jobs in Somebody's Kitchen Washington, Sept. 27.—The big rush is over. No more solid trains of twenty coaches densely packed with colored humanity from the South to roll into Union Station carrying its human freight into Northern industries. Not that the movement of colored workers from the South to the North has stopped completely, for every day a few hundred are noticed sprinkled among the other passengers stopping over here. Workers will continue to trickle North all the winter, but the big stream of Northward migration is temporarily stopped. Reason for this is the advent of cold weather, one thing the Southern fears more than anything else. He knows that it takes time to get a some coal in the cellar. For this reason he prefers the spring for his big advanced movement. Another reason is that big industries are not pushing out for men so strongly as they did last spring. Jobs paying good money are open in Pittsburgh, Cleveland, Detroit and Chicago, and the rush to fill fall or over. How fast colored people have come Northward in the past ten years can be seen from the colored population in the big centers. Chicago has grown from 44,000 to 120,000 past ten years; levels have risen from 5,000 to 50,000. Women migrants, generally speaking, are not going into domestic employment. Instead, they are increasing in the industries. In Chicago many of them are now in the needle work trades. Numbers are in factories making lamp shades, the laundries and the intensely laborious farm, work as charwomen and cleaners, wattresses, cooks, milliners, and dressmakers, but at the employment offices comparatively few seek positions as domestics. JUDGE TERRELL VERY MUCH IMPROVED Washington, D. C., Sept. 24—Sitting in a wheel chair in the sun parlor of Freedmen's Hospital today is Judge Robert H. Terrell, much improved. Judge Terrell was stricken several months ago with what was that to be paralysis. He is unable to speak clearly or walk unaided. It is that he may never be able again to ascend the municipal bench where he has served with distinction since 1909.

Physicians hope that the injured member will heal without leaving her with a permanent limp. GROOM 92. BRIDE 56 Raleigh, N.

Maryland 10 cents elsewhere ENTS SLAYER OF MAD TEACHER GETS TEN YEARS Polish Guard Who Slew William Murray Is Tried at Ellicott City JURY OUT 45 MINUTES Witnesses Say Clubbing of Insane Patients Is Regular Occurence Elliceott City, Md., Sept. 27.—For brutally clubbing to death William H. Murray, inmate of the Croynville State Hospital, Walter Swiskowski, white attendant, was convicted of manslaughter and given the maximum sentence of 10 years Friday. The crime for which Swiskowski was convicted was probably one of the most brutal in the annals of Maryland. Evidence brought out on the witness stand was not only blood-curdling and sensational, but revealed a state of affairs at this institution reminiscent of days when there was no scientific treatment for in-sane patients. CRIME BRUTAL ONE On June 18th, according to the testimony, Walter Swiskowski, a Pole, angered because of a previous altercation with Murray, former Baltimore school principal, and insane patient at the institution followed the placement of the place and clubbed him to death. Earlier that day, Murray, it is said, had stuck a piece of fly-paper on the face of Swiskowski, and instead of following the line of duty laid down for such attendants, the latter began to assault Murray. This altercation was stopped by other inmates present, and found in an unconscious condition at the foot of some steps in the hanger. William Dallas, another infirmary attendant, found Murray, and while making an effort to treat him discovered that he had been seriously injured. He ministered aid. An autopsy showed that his skull had been spilt in a straight line from ear to ear. In the left side blood had collected showing that at this point his head had come in contact with some forensic material. TWO DELEGATIONS "EASE BY" SLEMP Staff Correspondence A. N. P. Washington, Sept. 27—President Coolidge is "seeing" the "Brouther" and the "Sister." Is this indicative of Puritan good will in the face of the "Stump of Slemp?" Henry Lincoln Johnson, from Georgia, sir, is the latest individual of national prominence to be received at the White House by the Virginia Secretary and opponent of the Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill, and get the immediate and direct car of President Coolidge. All visitors came away smiling, and with hope in their hearts. He Married The Same Girl Twice James proctor, 721 W. James Proctor, 721 W. unique distinction of marrying the same girl twice.

After explaining his case in court he was advised to divorce the first Mrs. Proctor and renarry Mrs. Proctor No. The divorce was granted two weeks ago and Mr. Proctor promptly secured a second license to wed Mrs. Proctor No. 2, and the ceremony was speedily performed. Births, Deaths, Marriages Phone Notices to VErnon 6016 HUNDREDS OF BALTIMORE DRUGGISTS DISAPPOINTED Can't Get Herbs of Life For Their Trade ONLY THOSE WHO BOUGHT HEAVY DURING AUGUST ARE ABLE TO PARTIALLY TAKE CARE OF THE DEMAND On account of the recent Earthquake in Japan, which completely wrecked the dechidhi Warehouse at Yokohama and destroyed a vast cargo of crude drugs valued at over a half million dollars, belonging to the Herbs of Life Indian Medicine Company, the druggists in general in Baltimore and other principal cities are up against a serious embarrassment on account of the Herbs of Life Medicine Company not being able to take care of the present demand. "The principal drug used in the manufacture of the now world-famous and greatest selling tonic, is indigenous only to Japan and India. On account of the calamity in Japan, the drug must be imported from India at an increased cost of nearly 90 per cent, which is very likely to double the present selling price. "Leading members of the Medical Profession claim that the Herbs of Life Medicine Company has positively refused to use substitutes or synthetic drugs because of the danger in destroying, the good will, which they have worked so hard for. And on the other hand the public can easily tell when a substitute has been used on account of the peculiar taste which the original drug imparts, that cannot be imitated. Only a druggist who bought heavy during the past month will be able to supply a part of the demand during the next few weeks. A large number of the smaller dealers are already dunning the Wholesale houses and the various branch offices of the Herbs of Life Medicine Company, but have been notified that it will be several weeks before they can even get a dozen bottles. However, the fakirs have started to work with their "so-called wine of life" and other preparations bearing names similar to Herbs of Life. Their operations are confined at present to the canvassing of homes, and to working coupons through one or two unscrupulous druggists who will be put before the public in a few days. NOTE—To those who cannot get the genuine Herbs of Life from their drug stores, we advise that they get in touch with the Baltimore Branch of the Herbs of Life Indian Medicine Company, 1044 Pennsylvania Avenue, Baltimore, Md. At present they are not supplying any customers other than those who can't get accommodated through their neighborhood druggists. MARRIAGES.

VALENTINE—In sad but loving memory of my dear son, Jacob Scott. I see Valentine, who fell in love in September 25, 1832, one year ago. The angels came and nearer came When Jacob sick did lay. And gently touched his faded cheek. And pointed to the sky. The night was sad and dreary. The September wind blew free. The angels spread their silvery wings. And whispered, "Come with me." We gathered around his dying bed, With hearts to weep and pray. And many were the tears we shed When Jacob passed away. No bitter tears had he to shed, No sins to be forgiven. But close his loving eyes in death, To open them in Heaven. By his loving mother, ROXIE VALENTINE JACKSON.

Arnold Six men met in Boston, Mass., a few days ago to launch a million dollar proposition. In the group was a noted soap manufacturer who has made millions. Fifty thousand dollars was placed by each of the men into the hands of the treasurer for the purpose of raising a five hundred thousand capital. So much was allotted for machinery and other things necessary to the success of the project. What he would set aside for advertisement was the query of the soap king." We didn't thought of that was the terse reply: of the chairman of the board of directors." "Why it would be useless to put the product on the market without advertising it." Let us take twenty per cent of the capital and put it in newspaper advertisement. The rejoinder of the chairman of the board. Why did he say this? Because he knew the soap king was a successful business man, and he built his business thru ADVERTISEMENT. A precedent for you Mr. colored business man. If you ever expect to become a potent factor in the commercial field. Set aside so much each year for newspaper ADVERTISEMENT it will increase your BUSINESS.

ALL COLORED STAFF AT HENRYTON IS THE NEED Rev. R. E. Ford Tells Hagerstown Dist. Conference They Should Make Request to Governor Maryland Is Said To Be Behind in Providing A State University By W. H. Hall The new colored tuberculosis is hospital at Henryton, Md. an entire colored persengue Maryland is behind other States in providing for training of Negroes beyond the high school. The church should lead in booking after the welfare of migrants from the South. Frederick, Md., Sept. 25. These were the cardinal points in the address of Presiding Elder R. E. Ford at the opening of the Hagerstown District Conference held at Quinn A. M. E. church last week. Rev. S. R. Drummond was the entertaining pastor. Dr. Ford pointed out that the West Virginia Legislature at its recent session appropriated more than $500,000 for the higher education of young colored people of that State, and that in Missouri, North Carolina and several other States where separate school systems are maintained, large sums are given to colored colleges and universities. For the splendid work the University of Maryland is doing for the white citizens of the State, the last Legislature appropriated about $700,000, said Rev. Ford. Then there were generous sums for John McCarthy, the president of St. John College, Western Maryland College and other white institutions. Morals and welfare of the migrants should engage the attention of the church workers in every community he deed reed. Dr. Ford also called upon the college to install the instruction of white doctors and nurses at the new colored hospital at Henryton in Carroll County. Since all the patients are to be colored, the personnel should likewise be colored. Rev. J. O. Moseley, of Ebenezer Church, preached the opening sermon. The following officers were assigned: Secretary C. I. Green; Baker; assistant C. I. Green; marshalls, Wm. Brown and Alexander Butler. The pastors made fine reports of their churches. Rev. J. E. Lee read a paper on the subject, "What is the Influence of Darwinism as Taught in the Schools." Rev. F. O. Brundleck (J. H. Hall, W. H. Williams), J. Skinner reported on the educational facilities in Western Maryland. Others on the program included W. H. Hall, W. H. Williams, M. E. Simpson, J. E. Davis, W. H. Beckett, James A. Briscoe, W. H. Beckett, James A. Briscoe, H. Butter and Jas. D. Wilson were elected lay delegates to the annual conference to be held at the Metropolitan Church, Washington, D. C., in April 1524. Wm.

He is fifty-years-old and the girl he intends to marry is 16. Fourteen years from now she will be 30-years of age and you will be 64. Then Goody you. She says she wants to live in a small house and wants you to sell your home and invest the proceeds in a larger one. You take my advise and leave her alone. An old man like you has no business marrying a girl that age." Thus, Dr. W. G. Kennard, Faith Healer, carried on his tests at Christ's Institute at 704 Ensor street, on Sunday night. In the middle of an address, the Healer broke off and shouted: "There is a man in here tonight who goes by the name of Charles Dorsey. That is not your name," he shouted pointing at some one in the rear of the building. "Your mother, you have five wives living.

He founded a mission 34 years ago which eventually became Morning Star, Church. The congregation grew rapidly.

He was a member of the Masons, Knights of Pythias, St. Lukes and Seven Wise Men and various Baptist bodies. A widow, Mrs. Mary F. Winn, is among the surviving relatives. Thousands At Funeral Of Rev. Shaw Boston, Mass., Sept. 23—With the large 12th Baptist Church which he had just cleared of debt and had pastored for 21 years filled to capacity limit and thousands standing in the rain outside held back by police reserves, sad and sincere honor was given the memory of Rev.

Flowers from the family covered it, flowers lay strewn below it, stretched out on either side on stands flanked by the clock of Bay State Lodge of Elks to the left and the large standing cross from the National Equal Rights League of which Rev. Shaw was the national president on the right. Thousands of the race lined the sidewalks for nine blocks on the road to Mt. Hope Cemetery where underaker B. F. Hutchins completed the burial. Rev.

"No, your figures are not correct! You forgot to carry your nine. Now you want to know if I know whom you kissed tonight before leaving home. I'll tell you whom you kissed. You kissed your waitress." These tests are hold every second and every Sunday, preceding the faith healing, which is very interesting.

MALONE HEADS LAY DELEGATES By Edgar G. Brown Indianapolis, Ind., Sept. 26.—Professor Aaron E. Malone, of the Poro College of St. Louis, passed through Indianapolis on his way to Bloomington, Indiana, where he will attend his third State Conference of the African Methodist Episcopal Church. Professor Malone has just been elected chairman of the lay delegation to the General Conference which meets May 5, 1924 in Louisville, Kentucky. He is also chairman of the electoral college of the Illinois delegation. Mrs. Malone, the founder of the Poro College, is resting at present in balmy California, and, though her heart is in no way too, she listened to the advice of her husband and remained in Los Angeles. Professor Malone, who has been active in the councils of the A.M. Church for nearly ten years, said great strides African Methodism in the West under Bishop Lovil Coppin, Bishop A. J. Carey, Dr. Chas, Sumner Williams, Dr. C. M. Tanner, and President John Gregg, in church building, education and membership in the last year has been almost inconceivable.

BLAKE STARTED OUT ON $1.50 A WEEK Wrote and Directs Orchestra for Show-That Has Taken In $1,500,000 (Time Piece News Service) The opening of the new Shuttle Along Co., by Sissie and Blake in Canada recently recalls to mine the act of the wonderful success made by the old company combining of matter and lyrics, also and poetry. Love four men added by Al Shaye, a white man, developed "Shine Along" from a group playing one night stages and going money was taken in gross receipts or proceeds in two years. Don't get the idea that "Shine Along" was satched on a snow sting, for as the five men put it, "we must even have a snow sting." It was started on nothing, recalled on empty stonemaces, knack on the point on windows, carcasses along to the worsting cold. It was returned to new York when it arrived to stovetop. The dramatic story of the success of "Come Along" is also the narrative of the up-coming struggle of two young groves. Young gossip, who uses the types for the production and Laude Bake, writes in writing to wronging students. Writing to the snow, they have composed more than a score of popular songs. Bake is the "iron man" to the team and not only directs the orchestra, but plays the piano while doing so through the entire production. At one point he goes to the stage for a piano performance. Bake is 35 years old and was born in Indianapolis. He finished grade school and studied two years at Depot University. During summer vacations he troupeed out with quartets and jubilee singers and got us early training at composing workshops and songs. Hate is 35 years old and can't remember, when he could not play the piano, he was born in Baltimore and when a child could play by car almost anything he heard someone else play. He graduated from the grade schools and then drove a doctor's carriage for $1.50 weekly. Played in Dance Hall I got tired of driving that old carriage and got a job playing the piano in a dance hall" Blake said. I could not read a note of music until after I was 25 years old. I married a competent musician and she taught me higher music. In the summer of 1945 in Baltimore, it was there they wrote that first song, "It's All Your fault." They got $25 for it, which was split, fifty-fifty. "After the summer season," began Hate, taking up the narrative. We were engaged in a dance hall where all the students and wrote songs for them. None of the songs were appreciated. "Blake had a local reputation and he stared in Baltimore, conducting orchestras. I moved to Palm Beach as an entertainer., New York people who thought I was good told Jim Europe, the orchestra leader, about me and he gave me a job. I knew he knew all about Blake and had been trying to get him, and we persuaded him to come to New York in the fall of 1916.

THE AFRO-AMERICAN S known as "Shorty", and it must be admitted that this dimutive comic created more merriment by his fine style and original methods than any comic seen at this house for moons. He was mostly opposite Byrd, both under cork, Talley kept the house rocking all the time he was on the stage. Ewing, who has few equals in straights, handled this part with his usual skill. stood out were, Elbert White, straight and character, who did a neat bit in the latter line in an East Indian impersonation and Rastus Brown, Jr., who put over some of the greatest and most exciting events on any stage. He won numerous encores and boys. The feminine contingent is headed by Elisie Fisher and the chorus is composed of six comely flappers in the persons of Libby Robinson, Stella Jones, and the author, Malintore girl; Beatrice Moody, Alma Henderson and Pearl Saunders. The show is new, and consists principally of a melange of song and dance, but in this line it made a great hit. It is clean and nicely and numerously costumed, and next week will comprise, "The Girl Who Came Back," which will be shown Monday and Tuesday, co-starring Mariam Cooper and Kenneth Harlan; "The Remittance Woman," starring Ethel Clayton, which will be shown redness and not the showing of "Enemies of Women," which is being brought back by popular request Friday and Saturday. LINCOLN Clark's Watch Your Step Company The stage attraction at the Lincoln this week is Joe Clark and his Watch Your Step Company, an aggregation of 10 clever people that offered a mangle of songs, dances interspersed with noonous dialogues and a big hit with houses at every show Monday afternoon and evening. Clark handles the bulk of the laugh-getting, but is ably assisted by George Allen. One of the features of the show is a piano act presented by the band Arthur Dickey. Others who won praise for their contribution to the show's entertainment were Anna Mae Reynolds, and Mary Carpenter, both of whom made big hits with their song renditions and Baby Josephine Clark, a little Miss of less than a half-dozen years, sang with her well confided husband has been in the business only five weeks. The chorus is fast and snappy, the members of which are Isabel Miller, Mary Lee Allen and Thelma Moyer. Pictures complete the bill. Clark has been selected to take out a New York City exhibit on the next two weeks over the same route traversed by the No. 2 "Shuffle Along" company. SHE was a small town gal—but she knew her stuff.

Grand Re-Opening DOUGLASS THEATER OCT. --50-- People "Follow Me" --50-- People Billy Higgins and Clifford Ross, the Chief Funmakers "BLACK HERMAN" AT THE RAINBOW ON MONDAY Great Zulu Magis King, Who Has Traveled All Over the World, Will Positively Appear at the Local Theatre for a Week's Engagement The manager of the Rainbow Theatre, Mr. George H. Woodley Jr., has secured one of the greatest theatrical attractions ever booked in this city when he successfully chased with New York that information, where Herman had been playing for almost six months. So startling was the answers to his telegrams, that Mr. Woodley decided to go and investigate himself. He wanted to be certain as to the wonderful stories he had heard of his mysterious man, "Black Herman." In truth, he was somewhat doubtful about the information, which told of the supernatural powers of the black magician, "Herman." He was very anxious to see the man who was electrifying and mystifying the thousands of people in the great metropolis, New York, and so on. What he discovered was astonishing. He first visited Prof. Herman's palatial home and offices at 119 W. 136th street. there he found that the Zulu magician had an establishment valued at over $60,000. That Herman had nearly two hundred people in his employment in various positions, and 32 models of the Studebaker automobile, besides a Ford and two large trucks for commerce purposes. This was just the beginning, yet Mr. Woodley was ready to believe anything of this great, mysterious man, by now. During his brief stay he saw fully a hundred people who called at the office to see the professor, and all left well satisfied with their visit. They were who troubled in some way, desired aid and had called on the black magician for help. Yes, even white people come, seeking his advice and assistance. Herman's feats of magic are beyond description, and must be seen to be fully appreciated. He has puzzled the smartest and wisest people, not only in New York, but throughout the world. The burial of a human being alive, sawing a peril, dying a woman in the air, turning a man into a hundred others equally as difficult to understand have been a deep and lasting mystery. Altho it is the professor's desire to entertain, yet he is humanely blessed with a big and tender heart, and always tries to help human beings every day. Knowing of the many diseases that attack the human system, Herman made exhaustive study on herb.

It will be a pleasure to show all visitors the heart of Harlem, who besides his herb office, a printing press and his own magazines and contemplates publishing a real live newspaper, the early part of the coming year.

A. Jackson Jesse Shipp the producing gets who is responsible for the construction of the series of shows that made Williams and Walker famous, the director who declined the highest salary that at that time had been tendered a stage director in England from the country's wealthiest producing manager rather than deserted show business, is again in harness preparing to go "On the road." Some years since Jesse abandoned travel. He could well afford to with his business investments in New York, and the frequency with which he was called upon to either produce or revise big white Broadway shows. Then too, he was interested in the progress of the Dressing Room Club of which he is president. Few thought he would ever travel again. Whether it was the, seductiveness of the Whitney Brothers, the appeal that their new show held for them, the call of the road, or perhaps the sense of loneliness that pervaded his heart since the loss of his son, an energetic young man of whom he was inordinately proud; can not be told. The fact remains however that he has become a partner with Homer Tuttle Tuttle Whitney, and John T. Gibson the theatrical financial genius, in the new Set company which will open Oct. 1, with the show entitled "North ain't South" in New York with a line of Klaw and Erhanger bookings that promises a great season. Mr. Shipp is one of the most read, most completely educated men in the show business without regard to color, and one of the few of the race that commands the full respect of Broadway, which means the show world. LOUISVILLE TO HAVE TWO NEW THEATRES According to advance announcements given front page space in the Louisville papers that the city is to have two new theaters before the opening of another season. Both will be owned by Negro corporations. Concerns already established and a substantial financial standing are behind the projects. The realty company has purchase property on which they will erect a six-story building that will provide space for office, apartments and a theater of sufficient size, and with equipment that will permit the playing of the biggest road shows available. The Domestic Life Insurance Co. has purchased a new home office building at Sixth and Walnut streets. The alterations in the structure contemplate arranging space for the First Standard Bank and a film theater on the ground floor, and the company offices on the upper stories. These with the existing Lincoln and Palace Theaters play pictures effectively vanderville and pictures will make available to Louisville all the forms of current amusement. The ownership of the established houses is also vested in race people. New Roosevelt Opens BY J. A. Jackson The Cinema Union of Sept. 15, devoted much of its front page to descriptive matter con- cerning the New Roosevelt Theater recently opened in that city. The house Louis Henry its manager and picture. Lewis's life history is given with not too many years deducted. From the Union we learn that the house seats 550 at 20, 30 and 40 cent scale. That it cost $167, 30. is large enough to accom- mate any size show that may play the town, and has a rest room for patrons, and the last word in comfort for performers.

Y. attraction on Sept. 16, after a successful season. While he is considering some offers for fair dates in the South, it seems that it is more likely that he will spend some oodles of dollars, and a bit of time on self-entertainment that may include a visit to Philadelphi and Boston. Of course, if anybody should point out an alluring spot, its dollars to doughnuts, that Alphonso would promptly forget himself and begin selling entertainment, for he sure likes to make money. "FIVE ROBBINS" IN WEST Everett Robbins, formerly with Mamie Smith's Jazz Hounds, has the Blue Clip on Blue Mound and Hawley Roads in Milwaukee.

The nucleus was passed on to him by darker peoples, most of whom have passed away with time. Consider the painful evolution of the British Government, undoubtedly the most stable and best functioning one today. Well, the Britons, after four hundred and sixty-four years of Roman rule, relapsed into barbarism when Rome left them to govern themselves. Lang says that the Picts and Dalridiac Scots after driving out the English fell into a quadrangular warfare among themselves. Doesn't this sound like the case of Mexico and Haiti a few years ago? "But these countries have the examples of the best governed coun- passions. The white race is im- tries to go by." "Well, so had the Britons," replied Dixon warmly. "It was not until the reign of Edward III that England began to have a settled government. And it took infusion after infusion of superior civilization. Gosons—to make that investment. It was not until the beginning of Victoria's reign that the British Government was firmly established—fully 2,000 years after the landing of Julius Caesar. Government, like everything else on earth, is a process of evolution, mankind through which the ages appear. The state of the age developed peoples affords the more highly developed ones a fine opportunity to observe the stages through which they have come, in the same manner that the old man by watching the growing can can self-insert again as he will himself till civil war after civil war, one of which, the War of the Roses, lasted for 30 years. The Negro played his part before the white man came on the stage, and will very likely play it again when he is gone. Apart from old Egypt there have been several successful Negro governments like Timon, Sudan and then five centuries and well into our day until annexed by the British. When Speke discovered Uganda he said that the people had developed a high state of civilization, and Chinese' Gordon speaks cordially of the line government of King Mtesa. Stanley in Continental, speaking of King Mtesa. The most courtly European could not have excelled the Uganda Premier." The Senator made no immediate reply. He was ambitious to find some, had trait peculiar to black men. His mind ran over the conventional idea. First he thought of rape, but he had read the Bible and knew the first rapes in that record had been committed by white men. He had also sat on juries where white men had been sentenced for the treatment. He also returned to the treatment and had been received at the hands of white men during slavery, and it made him fear to bring up this question. His opponent, he felt, had been too skilful in finding parallel between white and black. He next thought of the question of mentality. While men were not always truthful, either. He thought of stealing, but he had several business adventures and he had to acknowledge that white men were princes of theft compared with Negroes. He turned to sexual immorality. He he hesitated as thoughts of the mutton came into his mind; visions of the big city's Tenderloin districts flashed before him, as well as the statistics of illegitimacy among whites. But having heard so often that Negroes were more immoral than whites, he decided to speak of Negro immorality. Strik, ing out boldly, he said: "The highest sign of the culture of a race is the control that race exercises by, the sheer power of its intelligence, isn't it?" "Yes," replied Dixon. "True culture is built upon a certain measure of restraint, that is, a cultured man remembers that others have feelings like himself. Because of it, he restrains his egosism; individual or cultural restraint; animal passions; said animal passions." "What is more egosistic than a bag or a cat, except certain human beings?"

The nucleus was peoples, most of whom have consider the painful evolution undoubtedly the most stable day. Well, the Britons, after our years of Roman rule, re- Rome left them to govern the Picts and Dalridiac Scots fell into a quadrangular Doesn't this sound like the few years ago? "Very well, then. I meant sexual passions. The white race is immeasurably superior in that respect. The Negro has no more ideas of morality than a monkey; in fact, he is non-moral." And I have some length of experience of his experiences. Oh, I were thinking of sexual morality and 1 of ethical. But here also it is impossible to make any assertion as to the sexual morals of any people with any degree of accuracy. Negroes hold, too, quite as bad an opinion of Caucasian morality, as in hotels incidents among the whites similar to what you have just told me. Our nearest guide in this matter must be the opinions of unprejudiced scientists. And before I go any further I want to remind you that you said Negroes were non-moral as I shall now. This notion, Davenport tells, probably the greatest living sex-scientist. In Studies in the Psychology of Sex (Vol. 3) after giving two convincing reasons in favor of the so-called savages goes on to say: "It is a common notion that the Negro and the Negroid races of Africa are prone to sexual intolerantism in those who have the most intimate knowledge of these peoples. It probably gained currency in part from the open and expansive temperament of the Negro and in part from the extreme sexual character of many African orgies and festivals. I might add one of my own reasons to Ezekiel for that lack of male make for immorality. Finot says, 'These accusations must fall before facts.' "Mary Gaunt, in 'Alone in West Africa,' says: 'There is not in all the length and breadth of Africa, I venture to swear, one-quarter of the unalterable misery of a country, see any street in Lau, any great city of the British Isles. There is not a tribe that has not its own system of morality and sees that it is carried out." The Senator did not reply so Dixon continued: "I have heard Ellis as follows: The importance, even sacredness, of procreation is much more generally recognized by savages than by civilized peoples, and also a certain symbolic significance is attached to human procreation as related to natural relationships, and may instead of being a mere manifestation of lionessness, may have a ritual significance." "But that does not mean the Negro in the United States," objected the Senator. "No one can be the Negro far more unlucky than the Anglo-Saxon. The Negro's lustfulness will ever prevent his being of any consequence. Negro boys and girls learn well up to a certain age, but their strong use of nature makes them more useful with the ape—will ever make them the interior of white children." "What you say of the morality of the Negro is partly true, sir. But if Havelock Ellis and his supporters are right is not civilization largely rewite man has been living in concubinage with the colored woman for many years. What will the morals of any people, however pure, originally? "Nothing ever will persuade me that the Caucasian can in any way approach the lustfulness of the black." And he went on to make a comparison between certain instincts. "I am inclined to believe that the sex instinct is more highly developed among the whites, at least, cer- APEX PR The Wor Hair Pre AGENTS WANTED APEX PRODUCTS The Worlds best Hair Preparations Send six cents in postage stamps today for descriptive booklet.

A great deal, if not the greater part of the women, is cultured white women is due to this dissatisfaction. Hence they are conscious, very conscious of sex. In addition, Havelock Ellis seems to prove that the more developed a people, the stronger the sex instinct, the more stimulating food, works more laboriously, and has less leisure than the white man. The whites, on the other hand, have more uplifting diversions. I spoke then of the middle class white, for I believe that the very less the superior to the recognized highest among the whites. I mean the aristocrats. These Negroes are so, not because of any inherent virtue, but simply because they must use up a great deal of their energy to succeed in their nothing to do. It is a matter of the most common knowledge that the aristocrats of all climes and all ages are the most lascivious and perverted group in any country." You will admit, at least, that women have higher ideals of sexual morality than the black," said the Senator. "Yes, but you are forcing me to say what I have been trying to avoid saying ever since you gave me the cue of 'non-morality.'" "Well, what is that?" "You said Negress were non-moral. On the other hand, you said that morality is another lifesef of morality. Now if the man with the high ideals acts in the same manner as the man that never was taught any morals—well? Is it necessary for me to say any more? The plain truth is that civilized man with his higher intellectual development uses that development to invent forms of vice beyond the consciousness of others." Dixon consulted his notebook and said: "I have a quotation here from the Medical Review of Reviews for July, 1916. The editor in speaking of the report of the Baltimore Vice Commission says: 'It tells a tale of just and sexual deceit and whereon among the most reputable Eldinorsons—it lifts the cover from a never-ceasing cauldron of sensuality and seduction. Baltimore is a city taken in adultery. The pages of this report are a blissful of the white man's sexual where: a record that ought to pre- him from criticising other types "But Negro women are very financial," persisted the Senator, illustrating his viewpoint with lurid examples.

Crafters New York) Bert Williams' greatest admirers undoubtedly deserved as much a museum as from his eccentric dancing as from any other accomplishment. He has been called a great dancer. As a matter of face Williams was naturally awkward in him and he realized it. The gliding exit step was just one of those things that happened accidentally in the instance when he tried to make his exit and nearly lost his balance. The A. step and the fearful grimness which accompanied it made people rear with laughter and he repaired it night after night for years. Williams wrote a song called "Never" which he tried out, but he thought it did not admit him so he sold it to the late Nat Waltz who read it with same success. The words are by Rogers. NEVER We had three park shops at our house L night last: I was quite a treat. I asked a friend of mine around At his home, the don't eat meat, he ate some chop an' I ate meat. Ma offered him, the other. He reached Joe, the uncompeting chop An' I cried but to mother: CHORUS Never- NEVER! You'll hear it famed Ak not keep it FOREVER!

Why is an opera singer like a confectioner? Because she deals in high screams (ice creams). Why is a Zulu lady like a prophet? Because she has very little on her chest in the country. Why is the letter "F" like death? Because it makes all fall. Why is a pretty girl like a legoic? Because she sends off the spark, transports the mall, and has a train following her. What are the most unsuspectable things in the world? Milestones, for you never see two of them together. An old woman in a red cloak was crossing a field in which a goat was feeding; what strange transformation suddenly took place. The goat turnaround became a "warrior runner." What was Joan of Arms made of? She was Maitl of Orleans. What is that which is invisible yet never out of sight? The letter "S". When is a man like the letter "T"? When is the most difficult river on which to get a boat? Arno, because there Arno boats there. Where is your "Adams Apple" and how did it get its name? Answer next week. FIRY TALES When I was in the sixth grade I was a great fairy tale reader and when in possession of one of those beloved columns all else was lost.

Sound travels 1890 feet a second in air and 4700 feet a second under water. Theodore Short, Pittsburg, Pa. A Games For Younger Children DUMB GRAMBO The class is divided into two groups. One group goes out of the room and those who remain choose some verb. The outside group is then told some word that rhymes with the chosen verb. They consult together (outside the room), and decide on a verb which they think is the chosen verb and then return to the schoolroom and, without speaking, act the word. If it is right, the class claps hands, but if wrong they merely shake their heads "no." The acting group goes out of the room again and decides upon an angle that rhymes with the word. They continue, to act verbs until they have guessed the right one. For example: The verb "eat" is chosen. The group outside is told that the word rhymes with "heat". Then the group decided that rhymes with "heat" and they are "to beat". As this is not correct, they try "to meet". but again without success. At last they try "to eat". When the word is guessed the groups change places and the game is played again. The game is an excellent game to help in the teaching of English especially in illustrating verbs of motion.

I told myself that when we met he should be made to understand how little his lickiness had affected my heart. I resolved to treat him with friendly indifference. We met at a party of the crowd of the students. I extended my hand in what I meant to be a most graceful manner. We exclaimed a few complacences and he said, "Meet my wife," half turning to a very pretty girl beside him. But I found I could only roll my eye in her direction, for one of the rips of my face had had dug itself into the mesh of his straw. Backing up seemed to do no good for where one went the other followed. Did we blush? An amicable could have been frizzied between our faces.

Way To Happiness Many of us envy people who are contented with life and have found the road of happiness. All of our lives are spent in seeking this road. English is the one who sells his happiness for gold. Nor is a happy life found in idleness and discontent. Work is a necessary factor. Happiness also is found in helping others who are unfortunate in life's beaten path, cheering up sick and the crippled bring gladness. Make other people happy as well as yourself and the way to happiness is found. HOWARD WALLACE 114 W. Henrietta St. "Which Will It Be?"

STUFFED SOUASIL Quite a delightful way to prepare little squashes is to stuff them. Cut them in two lengthwise and cook them in salted boiling water for 8 to 10 minutes to remove the centers which contain seeds. Place these on a shallow granite dish which has been buttered or oiled previously. Stuff each squash skin with beef broth and mashed or with sausage meat.

Five-year-old Ruth had looked forward to her trip with her father to Baltimore. This was her first trip to the city and she was happy with childish glee for weeks.

What could a mutual friend to introduce him—one who will vouch for him—then it will be different. IN A HARD POSITION Dear Annie:—I am a married woman. This is my second marriage. I have three children and my second husband has two. I have told he loved me, but he asked me to let my two older children out to homes. Of course, I hardly see how he I could do that, and I got angry. He said later, but he did not love me to a good stomother to his children, but it seems as the all I do is in vain. I have never punished one of them, and resolve that I never would; but they run over my small child, and think I ought never to say a word. They get angry. They talk to me as the father does, and it worries me sick. Now, I love my husband, and I don't see how I could live without him, after all. What I need is that he wanted me to go, and said I had just showed myself on him and that he didn't want me. You are in a difficult position, but I am sure you can master the situation. Don't leave your husband. Try in every way to please him. When he sees how kind you are to his children and how much you care for him, I am sure he will repent and to do what is right. Good luck!

The date set for my wedding. On the morning of the 11th of April I arrived with large drifts of snow and a real Pennsylvania blizzard outside. How dark and dreary the world seemed that day! I knew he couldn't come, because he lived 35 miles away, with no chance of coming. And the usual chores and housework and after dinner we started to iron the clothes washed the day before. While ironing I kept thinking how different the scene in our home would be after the day home became one of my day dreams when suddenly a car drove into the yard. As I looked out of the frost-covered window, my heart gave a leap, recognized my cuft, and I walked into the house. He came inside and gave me a large box of flowers, which, when opened, were found to be frozen. Taking me in his arms, he said: "Darling, I've come for you and want you near me always." He was the happiest moment in my life. We were married the same day in a small village, miles distant, but we got stuck in the drift coming back and had to walk a mile in the cold before we got home. But all's well that ends well. A Happy Wife. "For the Women to Read" "For the Women to Read" $1 PRIZE WINNER I wonder if it is not the fault of the wives that husbands forget after marriage. Before marriage the lover does the courteous acts, buys the tickets, sends the candy and flowers. His sweetheart graciously accepts and often gives very little in return. After marriage the husband must make the living for two. And possibly if children come, his desire to properly support them takes so much of his time that little things are easily overlooked. But if the wife will do her part, and realize that after marriage it is her turn, the husband will not al- Take the case of Elsie and Jack. When Jack married, all of his savings went into his home and furnishings. As children soon came there was no need to alliance, so Jack will live on. But of the board of the fund Elsie managed to save enough by fall to give her husband a birthday surprise party. With her sister's help she had every thing ready on his return from work. Even her friends did not realize was going on until Elsie brought in the cake lighted with candles. Jack was very pleased indeed. For husbands like to be remembered also. After that he asked concerning her birthday, before surprise dinner, to assemble his birthday passed unnoticed. The following fall, she had again saved enough to give him a surprise. But she was not to know until the next year what this soon said. She was to St. Valentine's Day. Elsie still delighting in giving surprises, sent him a love token to his place of business. To her surprise, she received on Easter the most desirable gift: a delicate cord, and as lovely a box of candy as she had ever received. When her birthday came, not believe it, she had herself a cake. But the surprise she gave her outhouse any she had given him. Since then his time has been very much taken up with making a living for his family of five, but he still ages at a pace occasionally. He makes home a box of body when money permits. He relieves her in the morning by getting the breakfast while she bathes the children. He helps with the dishes at night. He pays some one to stay with the children so they can go out together and holds the door open for her to enter on their return. When she still plans his birthday surprise, sends him holiday cards, and does not feel any bitterness when she finds it necessary to remind him of the show they had planned to see. A.

This game was the only game that outcurred the Cuban pitcher allowing only three hits. Jumelo allowed six. But Carr did even better than this only one man Baro, visiting center-fielder could locate Carr be making all three hits, and only one of the three, a Texas League went out of the inning. The other two were of the search variety. The game was in our personal judgment the best ever seen here. It was a big league game in every particular. Both teams gave the best performance, an error being made on either side. Carr's great performance mark. Carr's great performance marked another feature: it was the first time the Colts had been shutout in a game. Flushed with his triumph in the first game, Carr wore back in an attempt to do the "iron man" stunt in the second game, and for four innings again held the visitors recordless until rain broke up the game. This made a bumping. Cuban crossed the Carr. Of the three scores that the Sox made, two in the first game and one in the second. Perry, Sox second-sacker and Kemp got the credit. Perry fit a single to conference play and had the seventh innings (the first game and Kemp) put over the Sox's one run in the first innings of the second game by dashing feet first time the plate after Wilson's right had been caged by Tabi.

The Weldons have played 16 games this season winning 15 and losing one. The Weldons were wrongly marked up as losing to the Baltimore Sluggers, making two games lost when the team has lost only one game. NOTE—The manager of the Weldon team has written asking opinion in regard to a game with the Miami Eagles, a game the Eagles walked off the diamond in the third inning with the Weldons leading 2-0, without giving any cause until later, when they claimed to be dissatisfied, over money although they said nothing about money when they walked off. If the Welton Manager's version is correct, his team won the game by forfeit. Line-up: WELLIONS CAPITOL TIGERS Ab r b! Ab r b! Oceanus. b 1 2 Johnson. c 3 0 0 Colbert. b 1 4 Johnson. c 2 0 0 W.

HILLDALE IS TO PLAY CONNIE MACK'S ATHLETICS American Leaguers Will Try To Down Eastern League Champions In Philly League Heads Plan Session To Discuss Work for Next Season Philadelphia, Sept. 27.—Racing the task of winning nine out of ten games to tie the league-leading Hildale Club, the Cuban Stars have their work cut out for them to knot up matches in the Eastern Colored League race. The Islanders bested the Brooklyn Royals by taking four out of seven in their performing trip through New York State. Rain broke up what probably would have proved to be the deciding game of the league series for Ed. Bolden's Hildale team, when a defense prevented the Darbyts from mixing matters with the Cuban Stars in the final with the Islanders. A win for the Hildale sluggers would have setied matters definitely and clinched the bunting for Bolden's co-hosts. But in the event that Pompez' Cuban Stars coped the game, they have a mighty tough row to hoe to get near the flying Philadelphia. The Cubans dropped into Baltimore, the team's sole player, Baltimore Sox, but only the first encounter will count in the league standing, as it will round out their quota with the Marylanders. Commissioners to Meet and Lay Pleas for Another Season Although everything pertaining to league matter has not been run off with the smoothness of the proverbial clock during the first year of organized baseball in the East, Chairman Boden has issued a call for a meeting at which matters of the current season, awarding the pennant to the winner and laying plans for the next season will be thoroughly covered. All of the league members have derived benefits from the Mutual Association and bigger crowds than ever before in the history of colored baseball, and are outined to witness the league frows. Hildale to Play Counc Mack's Athletics A series that has started Statewide comment and set the colored baseball world agog, is the meeting of Ed. Bolden's Hilldale Club and Comnie Mack's Philadelphia American League Club. In view of the splendid record hung up by the team, every one is anxious to see them pitted against the American Leaguers. The Athletics will present an intact line-up of regulars to battle the colored players, the following men will wear the Major League spangles: Brugy and Howland catchers; Eddie Robson and Husty Bollio; Nov. 14 and Hasty, pitchers, Hauser, first base, Sheeh, second base, Galloway, shortstop, Riconda, third base, Wid Matthews, Tillee Walker and Welsh in the outfield. A mild surprise has been spring on the baseball world by Ed. Bolden shaking up the players on the field, which has been benched and unfrocked of the captaincy, which in turn has been placed upon the shoulders of Frank Warfield, the periphery seaker. Black Sox Schedule The Black, Sox schedule this week calls for games at Norfolk. Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and at Richmond, Va. Friday and Saturday. These games will probably be played with Ben Taylor's Washington Potomacs. The team was idle last week. GRAYS WIN 101 STATISTIC (Preston News Service) Blairsville, Pa., Sept. 27—In a one-sided game here today the Homestead Grays chalked up their one hundred and first victory of the season, touching up the score of 126 to 121 while Candandy boosted his batting average with five hits. Somebody asked me what would happen if Jack Dempsey ever stopped dodging Harry Wills, and in the Cartoon above, I have tried to oblige them. Such a battle would take place, I imagine next year in New York or New Jersey before 125,000 persons. Dempsey knowing that his days are numbered would require 75 per cent of the proceeds, while Wills would have to worry along on a bare 10 per cent of the two-million-dollar gate. At that the battle will last but five rounds, before the thousands of cheering fans will crown a new heavy-weight king. ROUND 1—Dempsey starts in to finish Wills quickly like he did Firpo. Wills expected the champion's rushes and stepped inside his swing countering with hard rights to the heart. Dempsey's scowl gave way to astonishment when his blows failed to find their mark. ROUND 2—The Bronzed Panther and the champion met in the centre of the ring and exchanged blow for blow. In the clinches Wills got in solid blows that made Dempsey wince. The referee cautioned both fighters for hitting in the break-away. ROUND 3—Encouraged by the shouts of the crowd, and told by Kearns he would have to win quickly or not at all, Dempsey charged down on Wills. A barrage of blows enveloped Wills' body, causing him to lower his guard. Taking advantage of it, Dempsey put all his steam behind his famous right cross, hitting Wills on the point of the jaw. There was force enough behind it to knock out many a boxer, but Wills took it and came back for more. ROUND 4—Wills took the offensive. He had withstood Dempsey's best blow and now feared no harm. Using his long reach and the cat-like agility for which he is famous, he hit Dempsey with all he had, and the champion was groggy and one eye closed when the bell saved him. ROUND 5—A cut over Dempsey's eye bothered him and Wills closed that member completely with his first blow. Dempsey was swinging wildly like a gate when Wills stepped in with a right uppercut to the solar-plexus. The impact was terrific. The champion crumpled and shot thru the ropes like a catapult, landing in the centre of the press table. The referee leaned over the ropes and began counting. Dempsey essayed to rise, but could not, and still on the table he was counted out. SIKI AND MANAGER ARE FREED (Preston News Service) New York City, Sept. 28.—Battling Siki, the Senegalese boxer, his manager and three sparring partners were discharged in police court on charges of violating the boxing law last Thursday. They were accused of giving boxing exhibitions without permission of the District Attorney, who argued they were ignorant of the law and should be let off with a warning. AMERICANS WORRIED When word of Siki's arrival in this country was sent over the country, Americans exultantly predicted that it would be many days before he would be killed in court or arrested. However, aside from wearing the latest in men's dress, Siki has proven a distinct disappointment. And the belief strengths, that a number of "hair-raising" stories published about the Sikes were nothing but the news of the man's ravings of a "pecker" newspaper reporter.

BALTIMORE WILLS-SMITH BOUT POSTPONED (Preston News Service) New York City, Sept. 27—Harry Wills, the Bronzed Panther of New Orleans and contender for Dempsey's heavyweight crown, has been matched to fight Homer Smith of Kalamazoo, Mich., in a 10-round contest at the Queensboro Stadium the night of Oct. 4. The bout originally scheduled of September 27, was postponed when Smith and his hand Friday knocking out his opponent in a boxing exhibition at Kalamazoo, Mich. The bout will be of unusual interest, not only because it will mark Wills' first ring appearance in a year, but also because Smith gained prominence by staying the limit of 10-round match with his Angel Firpo last Aug. 3, at Orlando. Smith was the first boxer to stay the limit with Firpo since the Argentine mauler's advent to pugilistic fame in this country. The Michigan fighter was knocked down almost at will by the South American but managed to blaze until the last bell. The contest was staged during Firpo's midsummer exhibition tour. Two week's after the Smith bout, Joe Downey of Cincinnati, succeeded in going the limit of 10 rounds with Firpo at Indianapolis, 16-ounce gloves being used. Wills, unsuccessful in his protracted campaign to force Jack Dutton to title match, now declared his willingness to meet Firpo to decide which shall be entitled to the next bout with the champion. But so far little progress has been made toward making the match for Wills has finally declared he will not fight Firpo in Argentine, while the South American battler, while the Argentine, was gifted with promoter Tex Rickar in box Wills next April in his native country. Flipro is not anxious to don the gloves again before next spring or summer, but is insistent that if he fights Wills, the bout be staged in Argentine's native land. Wills is holding out just as firmly for the match to be staged in this country. Wills plans to engage in a three month's exhibition tour following his fight with Smith. Jack Johnson Tries "Come Back" Milford Ct., Sept. 27 — Jack Johnson has not given up hope of finally crawling thru the ropes of somebody's prize ring with some of the leading heavy pugs now in the lightmelight despite the bar that won up against him recently in New Jersey. Jack is putting in a siege of serious training here in an endeavor to "comeback". Although months of idleness had added many pounds of superfluous weight to his avoiduplots, until recently, he has trained down to the weight he used to light at when he was the world's greatest heavy-weight.

These refutatory facts are painfully evident to any one who will take the time to journey to the Gayetre Theatre where Siki is appearing this week, and look at him in the first place, the sensational Senegnegne from Sunny Senegal, is not as honourable as his pictures make me. And there is nothing wild-looking about him. On the contrary, there is an apparent air of some little culture in his hearing, which is revealed by his attitude of repose. Now as to Slid's boxing ability, now he has made the greatest progress during the last few months of any pugilist the world has ever seen, or—well, you remember what we said when we started this article. Slid accompanied by his man, baniumweight, another weight and baniumweight, champions of France, got in late Monday, it being almost time to appear for the matinee. Then they discovered that their buggage had not arrived.

Being plainly evident that Tasco had sustained a pair of frosted dogs, Herman Miller, white local light-heavyweight, consented to go on. After his two countrymen had given a three-round exhibition, Siki came on to a good bench, did some rope-sweeping. He and his team together for a three-round exhibition, and it was in this mix-up that Siki uncovered some of his ability. Stripped, Siki is an ideal boxer. His form is finely proportioned. His shoulders, beeps on his knees, are sturdy and capable of sustaining the body in a gruelling battle. In cleverness, Siki threw a surprise into the crowd. He is as agile as a cat on his feet, understands the art of snatching his head back to avoid a punch to the body without moving the whole body. And with all this he is a two-handed fighter, having a powerful kick in either. His one fault is that he has a broken finger, a broken face unprotected, a habit that would work materially to his disadvantage with a fighter who was ever on the alert for a chance for an upper hand, and punching ability drew an ovation at the close of the bout with Miller.

Those who criticized Lincoln last year for her schedule will have ample cause for more criticism this year, for the schedule is certainly a "heavy" one, Hampton Institute, St. Plut, Shaw and Howdell will certainly be enough to coach on Coach "Lissy" Young on coach Coach "Lissy" Young to be a master dental and doctor too, in order to prepare the teeth and digestion of the "Jungledees" for such suspensions but irritating diet.

SENEGALESE "BIKE" RIDER HERE SENEGALESE "BIKE" RIDER HERE By Associated Negro Press Chicago, HI. Sept. 27—All Nefatti of Senegal is to be one of the entries in the six-day bike race to be started at the Coliseum, October 27. Nefatti is a countryman and close personal friend of Sikh, the great French fighter, who is now touring American. Nefatti has been the fastest and most appraising in the European races in the last two years. Last winter, at the Velodrome d'Aliver in Paris, he won most of the important races, scoring victories over Broco, Von Kempen, Elerguard and other foreign stars. He is especially good in long hard-run races. When Siki arrived in the United States several weeks ago and found the Lille at New York and Newark, N. L.' drawing immense crowds, he sent for Ali Nefatti to come over, and the latter is expected to arrive some time next week. No teammate has as yet been selected for the Senegalese, but Manager Harmon states that he will not be teamed up with any of the Germans who are expected to enter the long grind. port to Coach Tuskegee Institute der the tutelage of the famous Fritz Pollard, and the fourth member of the famous Ridgely, Law and Parr backfield combination at Lincoln in 1918 and 1919, is coaching the backfield candidate, and passing and in side-stepping, dodging and screening the ball in a running attack. The "heavies" composing the line are being teamed by John H. Big Brown, of Union, who is playing the hardest charging and most feared linemen in the Eastern Inter-Collegiate football circles. Among the men who are showing mid-session form are: Boass at quarterback, Joiner and Wootz at fullback, and Patterson at halfback; Danzble and Tadlock at tackle; Wright and Brown at guard and Gilbo, Duncan, Clay and Watson at end. (Preston News Service) Philadelphia, Pa. 4, Sept. 28.—James Law, former head coach at Lincoln University, has left for Austin, Tex., where he will be football coach at Sam Houston College. Law was football captain at Lincoln in 1921, and was made athletic director the following season when the graduate system was installed. He resigned last spring with the announced intention of entering the University of Pennsylvania dental school. His acceptance of the coaching job in the South, therefore, comes as a surprise. FORTY MEN ARE OUT FOR ST. PAUL'S SQUAD FORTY MEN ARE OUT FOR ST. PAUL'S SQUAD (By J. I. Whitehead) Lawrenceville, Va., Sept. 27—St. Louis football squad from which Chuck Douglas will pick the fastest, most alert and formidable varsity machine that has ever domed the Orange and Black togs, is composed of forty men, with an average weight of 169 pounds, and an average age of 20 years. With three exceptions last year's varsity team is intact. "Judge" Vaughan, Miller and Williams are the absences. Vaughan is certain not to be missed. It is the possibility of Miller; and Williams' returning. The boys are showing up remarkably well in speed, agility, endurance and serenity. "Tackling the dummy muscular exercises, running, jumping, and siggell drill power the diurnal pastime. The lads are grasping the Cold Spring, and are unbound determination, which is a never dying characteristic of St. Louis players is obvious. "Red" Parker, St. Plutus' 1922 Pilot, is practicing in mid-season form, nowwithstanding the fact that he has 199 pounds of avoid-dupois to contend with. Captain Parker expresses himself as being highly pleased with date, with his team, and he believes that his team will win the C. O. A. football championship this year.

Lawrence Last, Monday Coach Gibson's call for football candidates at the High School was answered by 40 boys. Among the candidates are several veterans of the 1322 squad including G. Mack (Captain), T. Roberts O. Roberts, Paul Brooks, Troy Dixon, Pickney and Harmon. The practice for the week consisted of working on the fundamentals. The outlook for the coming season is bright the way the boys are going after the pig-skin. The Baltimore High School football team for the past few years has had the "jinks", but, the "jinks" has been tarnished with the name Baltimore High School. Coach Gibson has reported that the Douglas High School shall be unbeatable in football this season. The team under its new name faces the hardest schedule in years beginning October 19, 1923. Oct. 12—Open Oct. 19—Manassas at Baltimore Oct. 24—Huntington High at New York Nov. 2—Dunbar High at Baton Nov. 9—Cambridge High at Baton Nov. 16—Armstrong Technical at Washington. SPORTSMIRROR The careers of Filippa are busy these days, disseminating gossip concerning a Wills-Firpo fight. As this writing Wills' manager, Paddy Mullins, has neither confirmed nor denied that he will accept such a match. To accept a bout with the South American now after he has been whipped by Dempsey (Wills) had been the foremost challenger of the champion for years before Firpo was even heard of, seems very much to us like falling into a trap. King followers are quite aware that persistent pressure by beer made them quarters from time to time over the period that Wills has been challenging Dempsey to keep the match from taking place. These efforts have been based on groundless reasons ranging all the way from the lie that the bout would cause genital damage from blanks from the country, to an accusation that Wills was a foul fighter, in that he has a style of holding and hitting. In passing, we might remind those who have accused Wills of foul fighting, that it doesn't appear that Dempsey's action in his recent pursuit of the suspects was proactive along this line. Some going so far as to encourage Firpo to protest the match on this point. But to our mutons. Some of those promoters who were loudest in their assertions that a Dempsey-Wills pursuit was being conducted standpoint, are now very active in trying to land a Wills Firpo. Why? Who knows what kind of schemes may be in process of concoction to put thing over on Wills (that will disguise him from a match Dempsey, should he defeat Firpo? Of course, we are aware that Harry's pork chops reserve fund must be down to the last million, but he has been able to prove that he seems to us that he should be able to hold out for a little while longer. It was reported shortly after the Dempsey-Firpo bout that the champion would not fight for at least another year. Later reports however, quote Dempsey as saying that he doesn't wish to remain idle for any considerable length of time as he formerly did and would preface it with the next six months or thereabouts. If Wills' publicity is handled properly we don't think he will have any trouble bringing the fight fans of the country around to his side of the argument, thousands of whom are already on his side. And public sentiment will force Dempsey into the ring with Wills or else he will fight for the bout being held in New York or New Jersey, if neither of these States will cast aside race predecide niengoug oo -t Late dispatches this week state that Jim Coffroth is attempting to dispatches in Tia Junna, Mex. some time in December, at the "AFRO" Office, ADV., and MAKEUP MAN of unquestioned ability.

New York, September 27—Miss Lillian Dobson, who has made a reputation second to no female spinner in this section of the country has been entered in the Antique Auction by the man's field track and field championship meet to be held at Newark, N. J. Saturday. WILBERFORCE SQUAD STARTS FOOTBALL PRACTICE Wilberforce, O. Sept. 27—The prospects for the coming football season are exceeding bright here. The first call for candidates was issued by Coach Harry Jefferson, who won his spurs in the Ohio Conference preceding his graduation in 1922 and tips the beam at 225 pounds, on September 10th. Coach Jefferson comes to the Buckeye institution from Kelly Miller High School, Clarksville, W. Va., where he was successful as a coach last season. Dean Mohr, last year's coach, has been made director of athletics and will have personal charge of the basketball teams. Coach Jefferson will head football coach and will direct his attention to the line while coaches Mohr and Purnell will tutor backfield candidates. Many letter men will be back, most of them have arrived already, for the coming year and there will be many who form the possibility of excellent new talent. Among the letter men we have ever heard is Willett, the Cleveland flush; Buff, the 229 pound fullback; Captain Hurd, half-back, and one of the leading kickers of last year; R. Smith, House, A. J. Smith, Stout, quarterback, and Scotty Brown, end who should make the Alabama can team. The subs who should make good this year are: Redden, R. Lewis, Custy, Coleman, Spraggs and P. Stewart. Coach Jefferson says he is extremely proud of the new talent that is available this year. Woolridge, an end, was an All-Indiana High school player last fall at Worthington, ind.; Johnson, of Evansown, ind.; high, who should make the Evansston "X" basketball team last winter; Craft, who comes to Wilberforce from Bishop's College, Texas; Harry W. Longward, of Cincinnati, who played with the American Legion basketball team last year; Riggs, of Parkersburg, W. Va.; All West Virginia High School quarterback; and Kyle Hogg, who who Higgins of Penn State, says, "is one of the greatest leman in the country." Since the opening of school the coaches have been busy whipping this material into shape for the opening practice game which will be between the "Varsity" and "Scribs" at Wilberforce on Saturday afternoon, October 6. Wilberforce football team will face a tough schedule including a big intersectional game with Harvard University and December 3 and the classic of the season with West Virginia College Institute at Columbus, Ohio, on November 29. Other teams to be met will be Simmons University, Kentucky State Normal, Roger Williams and Chillicothe. NED GOURDIN LOSES PENTATHLON Detroit, Sept. 27.—Ned Gourdin, Harvard athlete, who holds the world's champion broad jump, lost the National Penthion championship which he had won two years in succession, to Bob Legendre, who won the national meet at Belle Isle last Saturday. Legendre won two firsts, two seconds and a third for the low score of nine points. Gourdin's total number of points were 15, with the other six with Harold Osborne. The tie was broken by the toss of a coin, Gourdin winning. CLUB INCORPORATED The Ashland Pleasure Club, 818 Ashland avenue, has been granted a certificate of incorporation by the organization sets out that the purpose of the organization is for the pleasure and welfare purposes and there is no cap on the incorporators are: Moses Bennock, Daniel Gross and William Cole. HUBBARD ONLY HOPE IN OLYMPICS (Preston News Service) Ralph Davis, sporting editor of The Pittsburgh Press, holds up the contention of the Preston News Service, when he makes the following comment on the broad-jumping outlook of this country, in connection with the 1924 Olympics. "The United States will enter the Olympic games next year with only one broad-jumper who can be depended on to beat the foreign cracks. The man in question is DeLorean, but he is indebted to the University of Michigan, who formerly leaped here under the colors of the Scholastic A. C. "Hubbard is the only jumper in the world who can consistently hold the greatest broad-jumper that ever lived." "Only six men, excepting Hub, hard, have ever beaten 24 feet 6 inches. They are Gutterson, O'Connor, Prinstein, Worthington, Butter, and Gourdin; one of the greatest distances a second time. Hubbard has shown himself the peer of all broad-jumpers by doing several times. "Excepting Hubbard, the chances of the American broad-jumping squat team not year will be just a trite better than ever. Ned Gourdin, holder of the world's record for the event, has never been a consistent 24-foot jump, except for a few weeks in 1921. Sol. Butter, the dusky performer who was the spotlight among American broad-jumpers for more than eight years is going back. Bob LeGendre, former national intercollegiate champion never was a consistently great jumper, leap of 24 inches in his credit. "The foreigners will offer plenty of oposition. Charles Hoff, of Norway, world's record holder of the pole vault, has done 24 feet 3 inches. H. M. Abramsh, of Cambridge College, England, is a consistent jumper, who has done 23 feet 10½ inches, and is still on the upgrade. Sweden advances two first-rate jumps in Peterson, presenl Olympic champion, and Aberthorpe, senior. Hubbard won the bread jump, the hop step and jump, and 100-yard dash in the Detroit Masonic games last week. BATTLING SIKI TO MEET GEO, GODFREY BATTLING SIKI TO MEET GEO, GODFREY New York, Sept. 27—Battling Siki the Senegalese boxer will battle George Godfrey the crack colored heavyweight in Philadelphia on October 8th, as his first showing since coming to this side. RICHARDSONS AT BIG FIGHT Among the visitors at the Dempsey-Firpo fight were Mr. and Mrs. Lee Richardson of Hamilton, Ohio who were the guests of Wm. Sanston, the officer of the first picture house in his city, and his attic is filled with mute testimony of his generosity to performers, for there is a lot of stuff stored there while the folks he staked off for a fresh start after it and resumed his work. He is a hotel man with a heart, Mr. and Mrs. Young and Chauffer accompanied them. PETER JACKSON TO HAVE MONUMENT The rescue of the body of Young Peter Jackson from a pawer's grave by Denny Franklin, white, which will take place next Monday, is not the only mark of respect that will be shown for this fighter. Plans are now on foot for a boxing bout between Bobby Smith and he to be held at the Fifth Regiment Armory October 12, the p proceeds of which will be used to buy a monument to mark his grave.

More than two million people left the farms during 1922, according to Senator Borah, and no doubt included in this number were the migrants from the South. Migration would have a doubly good effect if some of the farm labor was directed to the open spaces of the West where farming is profitable instead of a wholesale congestion in urban communities. There is a real danger in city congestion as well as abandonment of farming. We must not allow our group to lose its accumulated hold on the land. This is the basis and foundation of economic independence. SCHOOL MEDICAL INSPECTION A more rigid medical inspection in our public school system is suggested by the case of Fred Wiggins charged with criminal assault on 14-year-old Annie Stewart in the Criminal Court this week. Testimony brought out at the trial showed that for months this little girl attended school infected with one of the most dangerous of the highly communicable diseases known to medical science. She played, ate her lunches and associated with hundreds of children innocent of the fact that they were in danger. Matters of this kind may be too delicate for practical periodical inspection, but certainly some method should be worked out to safeguard the innocent.

The surface of things it may seem fair to delegations upon the recorded vote, by Republican Committee knows that if the complete control of the Government, the right of colored people in the South, and effectively prevented the unjust discharges robs them of the ballot, a sacred power that formed the very foundation of the state, these Southern States would have gone during the past.

If, however, this is followed by a party to follow this line of logic to the union of trimming Congressional represses votes cast, it may work out for the best matters stand at present this action of National Committee has the effect of to the South's way of disfranchisement. The cutting down of the strength of the South's representation in the National Republican Convention, affecting primarily the Negro delegations, is but the logical working out of the policy to eliminate this group from the National Councils. On the surface of things it may seem fair to base the size of delegations upon the recorded vote, but the National Republican Committee knows that if the party, so often in complete control of the Government, had safeguarded the right of colored people in the South to vote; if they had effectively prevented the unjust disfranchisement which robs them of the ballot, a sacred promise and principle that formed the very foundation of the Republican Party, these Southern States would have given record votes all during the past. Colored representation in the National Convention has served as a sort of compensating balance against the unjust denial of voting privileges, and to this degree the Negro loses. If, however, this is followed by a determination of the party to follow this line of logic to the natural conclusion of trimming Congressional representation on a basis of votes cast, it may work out for the best. As matters stand at present this action on the part of the National Committee has the effect of giving its approval to the South's way of disfranchisement.

Gaither has asked for an appropriation of $3,271,863.61 with which to run the police department this coming fiscal year. His program calls for the addition of 200 officers, not one of which will be colored, it is learned. With a population in which one out of every seven is a colored, and with this group contributing largely to this budget, the administration of three millions of dollars in such a manner as to exclude one-seventh of the population becomes not only a question of rights, but of downright simple human honesty. With cities North, East, South and West, employing colored men in its police department with beneficial results there can be no argument of racial antagonism. There can be no question either that colored officers would be valuable in reducing crime because of the more intimate contact they could have with crime conditions. On the other hand the economic consequences of forcing our group to help provide such a large sum through direct and indirect taxes and fines without participating in its distribution is an injustice and helps to make the very condition that produce crime. This is a matter that should not only receive the attention of the Baltimore Crime Commission, General Gaither and the Governor, but every fair-minded white and colored man who believes in common The EDITORIAL PAGE of THE AFRO-AMERICAN MAYOR'S OFFICE WELL, THAT SAVES ME A JOB!

The FORUM Prince George's Co., Women Believe Candidates For State Central Committee Was Counted Out For the first time in the history, probably of the whole South, an educated colored woman entered the primary election contest by filing as a candidate for the Republican State Central Committee in Prince George's County, Maryland. Little thinking that around her would be waged one of the bitterest battles in many years, especially in her own district which had two others on the ticket for the same office. From the count on the night of election Monday Sept. 10, she was conceded a winner as results then showed her apparently running ahead of the ticket news to this effect reached the "After." But she did not. This has been published to date, but on Friday Sept. 14 the ballots were officially counted at Marlboro and three of the well known Maryland variety of colored politicians given official sanction on the Republican State Contingent Committee of P. G. Co. Draw our own conclusion from this. Mrs. Carolza carried her home district with a splendid majority which in itself was a district victory for her, since Seat Pleasant District is one of the most difficult in the whole county to influence and her friends feel that the same old "double-crossing" of wide-awake colored candidates has operated against her because she is the type of Lily, White Republican Party in Maryland does not care to handle. Colored women in Prince George's County are keeping the men forget from one election to the next—but our women have memories as long as their fairer sisters, the scrap book is there for sure reference, and a most important election is to be held in November next. Hopes Mayor Jackson WILL Follow In Footsteps of Mayor Hayes His Democratic Predecessor. Mr. Editor:— Someone since, through your col- lumn, directed attention to the sig- pillent fact, that it was Mayor Thomas G. Hayes who appointed the School Board, that turned over the High School to colored teachers. That was nearly twenty-five years ago. Even as early as then, a Democra- cial mayor, who had received peace- roved voters, gave serious considera- tion to the matter of naming a col- ored person on the Board of Educa- tion of this city. If it serves no other purpose, it is worthy of histo-rical preservation, and I herewish give a copy of a letter received from Hayes, under date of June 6, 1900. Writing to the undersigned, he said: "Your favor of the 4th is just received. I have read your letter with a great deal of care, and I am grateful that you make in it, as to giving the colored people representatives upon the Boards named. I have before considered it quite carefully. I do not know that I shall give any appointments to our colored fellow citizens on these Boards. I am grateful that personnel of the Board will be thoroughly impressed with the property of recognizing the citizenship of the colored race, as well as their legal rights, to the same extent as our white fellow citizens. My mind is not that I shall give it further consideration. I am obliged to you for your very sensible letter, which I have read with much care." May we not hope that many representative Democrats possess the same faith as characterist y Hayes. GEO; F; BRAGG; NR.

Jones Bearing Gifts Readers pick up their Sunday morning paper with a brief visit to the M.J. S. Wannamaker, a South Carolinian, and President of the American Cotton Association, up in arms and greatly disturbed at the way colored citizens are being treated. Perhaps you hold your breath while you read down the column and saw how this great defender of the rights of poor downtrodden colored people who were being driven out of the North and how that he representing the great American Cotton Association from Tennessee himself to their revenge. But, also and attack, you had a shock coming. The fly in the inotment made its appearance when he ended his telegram to Governor Pinchot by stating that his association would be glad to furnish transportation to any of those being Kluxed by Mayor Cufft. Suffering Cats, Think of that, South Carolina to offer a haven forgressed colored people. Those who can rub their cranium sufficiently to remember their school day Greek and remember the story of the Trojan Horse and "the Greek soldiers who die and death struggle between the Greeks and the Romans, the Greeks built a great horse to present to the Romans who had barricaded themselves against the latter. They will remember how that after they had accepted this horse it betched forth Greek soldiers who snote them and others. Thus comes this son of South Carolina—that State whose, record of Negro exploitation, Ku Kluxk, and mob violence casts the most bloody and crimson stain across American history, those American soldiers it has run away to return. Can you beat it? And what will make most colored people fear this Greek bearing gifts will be the fact that nothing recently has happened in South Carolina to show that there has been any change of heart other than the economy of "hands" to pick out the crop. European Dogs of War Snarling, snapping, and bliting dogs of war are loose in Europe again. Italy makes a jesture that may set the whole pact to fighting, while Spain's African program has ended with an internal renewal. The French hold on Germany, while England looks anxiously towards a future when she must defend her bread and butter, so to speak, which she grinds out of vassal people in Africa and other parts of the world. Africa, for all, it must not be forged, the next great bone of contention for these greedy nations who, like parisites, must keep some people beneath the yoke that their upper crust may live in luxury. All of the other groups once held and taxed by the European overlords are slowly growing. The people of India is resive. So that new sive lands must be found and Africa is next in line. Every student of European affairs know that France wants the iron and coal of the Ruhr, not to build instruments of peace, but instruments of war. And in the coming conflict, as terrible, as it will be, we somehow hope France will come out on top. Geo. W.

Miss. on March 11, 1770 the Tea Tax which has been imposed on the American colonies, was subject for serious debate in the English Parliament; which body had begun to realize that the fires of liberty, which had been smouldered in colonies, were likely to blaze forth at any time. On the day of Lord North's motion (March 5, 1770) for the repeal of the Tea Act, a group of citizens of Boston under the leadership of theispus Assam of the British colonies, hurled patriotism, started out to violently protest against the many injustices suffered by this erstwhile tranquil people. They were met by a volley from the muskets of the English soldiers, who were quartered in the hands of his companions fell mortally wounded. This event is known as the Boston Massacre. It is perhaps fitting to note that the first life given in behalf of a nation about to strike for freedom, was that of a member of theislers enslaved, despised and oppressed until nearly a century later. 44—Where was Nathaniel Dett born? Nathaniel Dett, trained in the best conservatories and universities of the North, has for many years been a major energy to the musical training of Negroes in the South. He has taught at Lane College in Jackson, Miss.; Lincoln Institute in Jefferson City, Mo., and has since 1913 been head of the Institute department of Hampton Institute Virginia. He was born in Canada. 45—What noted Colored Woman attended the convention of the World's Baptist Alliance at Stockholm, Sweden in 1923? Mr. S. C.

KELLY MILLER SAYS The Fifteenth Amendment forbids denial of the franchise to any citizen on account of race or color. The Fourteenth Amendment provides for the reduction of representation in Congress to penalty for such denial. But none of these things are involved in the latest decision of the National Republican Committee. The Constitution penalizes the South for disfranchising the Negro; the National Committee penalizes the Negro for allowing himself to be disfranchised. To him that hath shall be given; from him that hath not been given, even that which be hath Hitherto the nomination of the president and vice president has been based upon population and political division. Each state and territory was accorded four delegates-at-large without regard to the number of inhabitants. The rest of the delegates were apportioned by congressional districts which in turn were based upon the population as determined by Congress. It did not depend upon the right of franchise or whether those possessing the right exercised it or not. Women and children counted alike as units in the basis of representation. According to the procedure, all citizens had an equal potential power in the nomination. But under the new system the choice of candidates is based upon political activity rather than citizenship. The step is reactionary and the step is contrary to the spirit of democracy. A Democrat in Vermont has exactly the same weight in the selection of the standard-hearers of that party as a Democrat in Texas, but the Republican in Mississippi has a much stronger power by the relative number of his faith in his jurisdiction. The purpose of this reservation is easily apparent. The Southern delegates for the Confederacy characterized by unemittingly behavior in the national conventions. It may also serve as a stimulus to stir the Southern Republicans to greater activity. But it does seem that the Grand jury has taken a radical depiction of the conditions as well as a tide step out of harmony with democratic principles to accept unplush desired results and to remedy cells complained of. It is like burn a barb to get rid of rats. Negroes in Johnstown I was in Johnstown, I. m., last Spring and was amazed at the lamentable condition of the Negro laborer in that smoky hollow. The town, to use the language of Julius Chesar, is hemmed in by the blacks of the city. I have visited all types and kinds of communities in which Negroes live in all parts of the United States. I have seen them in alleyes and shade places; I have witnessed their poverty and distress in city and country. But I can truthfully say that it has never been my good fortune or misfortune to look upon such pittable communities in Johnstown. Only two colored families. I was told, own homes. This is not due so much to the intolerance of the people as to the impossibility of housing homes under existing restrictions. There were two Negro churches with a combined scouting capacity of less than eight hundred for a Negro population of four or five thousand souls. There was no place of amusement or healthy recreation. The population consisted largely of raw recruits from the South without the wholesome influence of home, church or social agency. The men lived largely in stockades where dampness, noise and constant companions I visited a stockade with a hundred inmates, there were no modern sanitary provision. The sheets and pillow cases, judging from appearance had not been changed for six months. Smoke from a fire had accumulated upon the floor half an inch thick. My soul sank within me, as I saw splendid specimen of physical young manhood fresh from the open air of the South immersed in this deathful environment, destructive allike to body and soul. I was damp in one of the remote hollows, with four rooms and thirty seven inmates. There was a single lamp without chimney whose dense smoke stifled the air. I was driven through the red light district which was too loathsome to attempt to describe. Dirt and dampness in the room I pregnant with disease and death. Pneumonia took its daily toll. Human life is simply impossible in such an environment as this. A Town of Gamblers Under such circumstances only two modes of past time are predictable sexual immortality and gambling. These men were all employees in the mills at remunerative wages. The surplus left from the exactions of the boarding house keepers and stockade tax was spent in carousing and gambling. When a set of men gamble among themselves one man's loss is supposed to be another man's gain. But an Johns tower at the man's broke, and no one seems any better off after the game is over. There must have been somewhere a hidden master hand. The faults of manifestation was not in these men but in their environment. Who of my readers would be strong enough to accept this? The test is too great for frail human nature. These young fellows had in them the raw material of respectable and useful manhood. My heart went out in compassion for them. I at once wrote Mr. Eugene Kinkle Jones, executive secretary of the organization, advising him to make an investigation this field with a view of establishing a branch in this afflicted spot. I regret that the financial status of the organization did not justify the venture at that time. I was prepared at any moment to hear of some dreadful happenings of the situation and the responsibility therefore resigned upon the shoulders of the controlling citizens of the community who allow their fellow men to live on such a degraded level of existence. The outbreak in any mode of crime, though appalling, is but the logical outcome of a degraded environment. The vindictive mayor of Johnstown is breathing out vengeance upon the whole racial contingent because of the criminal outbreak of a few. He would better serve his city by civil and nation by the restoring the city, which breeds the criminal rather than himself becoming a greater criminal by ruthlessly violating every law of God or man. Pinchot Running True To Form The doughty Governor of Pennsylvania is running true to form. Although Theodore Roosevelt is dead, his soul goes marching on. He proclaims civic righteousness and for all of the inhabitants thereof. When appealed to by the N. A. A. C. P. to restrain the lawless and outrageous procedure of the Mayor of Johnstown, he responds with true American spirit and courage. The promise to exhaust all of the constitutional powers of the citizens their constitutional rights. Pinchot says what he means, and means what he says. Capital and labor both understand this/ and the lawless mayor of Johnstown will be made to understand it. This country stands sadly in need of righteousness and courage in high places. If this country does not destroy lawlessness, lawlessness will destroy the nation.

Woodrow Wilson posits the League of "Nations to usher in the parliament of man, the federation of the world with the tree of capitalism that lays the ax at the foot of the tree of capitalism. Garvey and Gandalf are in jail. Woodow Wilson is a physical wreck. Lein and Trostky are anthemma marantia" on the tongue of the wise men of the world.
