The Average Man And Woman Can Now Expect To Live Fifty-Six Years. Laundress Brings Home Wash In $5,000 Limousine Metropolitan Insurance Co Which Insures 1,000. 000 Negroes, Issues Migration to the North Not Causing Higher Death Rate As South Reports HIGH LIGHTS IN METROPOLITAN STATEMENT 1 The average child 10 years old, can expect to live 46 years longer. At 15, he can expect to live 42 years longer. 2 The city Negro, North and South, is not dying out, but increasing. 3 Every Negro living today can expect to live from 2 to 5 years longer than he did 10 years ago. 4 Diseases which used to kill thousands of Negroes are being controlled. 5 Public health movements and colored newspapers are educating the masses. 6 Higher wages have enabled the Negro to "swat" the death rate. New York City, Oct. 11. Migration to the North is not causing the city Negro to die out. To the contrary figures show that the Negro death rate is lowest in history. This is the statement just issued by the industrial department of the Metropolitan Life Insurance Company, which insures over 1,000,000 colored people. Statistics concerning its members can well be taken as a picture of what is going on in the rest of the race. Especially important is the Metropolitan statement at this time, because the Southern press is full of propaganda to keep the Negro in the South by declaring that in the North Negroes die fast. In a mass of visual statisticians he has possessed with respect to the American Negro's chance for survival under the increased concentration of members of this race in the cities. "In fact, for years there seemed to be a marked interest toward inwardly lower rate of urbanized Negroes with an accompanying excess of deaths over births. This some students contended, would lead eventually to the extinction of the city Negro. "But the plain facts for recent years are entirely opposed to this view, that he can be seen from the records of Negroes insured in the Industrial Department of the Metropolitan Life Insurance Company. These Negroes are, for the most part, urban dwellers in Southern as well as Northern comma. "Life-tables show the fittingly small percentage of mortality just what changes occur from time to time in the expected after-lifespan of population groups. In the two years, 1911-1912, the expected lifespan for colored policyholders at age ten was 41.32 years. In 1922 the expectation was 46.74 years an increase of about 5½ years or 12.1 "This broadening of the lifespan among Negro males may be compared with an increase of 6.3 years or 13.8 per cent, for insured males of women, among females at age ten the expectation increased from 41.30 years in 1911-1912 to 46.07 years in 1922, which is a gain of about 5 years or 11.5 per cent. This is a decidedly better record than the increase of 3.8 years or 13.8 per cent, for insured women. These figures show what has happened to promote the general wellbeing of the American Negro. When the lifespan of a people lengthens decade it is indicative of far-reaching changes in conditions of life and labor. There is no longer any room for the gloomy pessimism respecting the Negro's chance for survival. The members of this race have benefited decidedly and are improving their New York, Oct. 11—A brown-skinned laundress, who "delivered" in her own perfumed limousine, which in turn was manned by two retainers in livery, put to utter confusion tonight considerable of the police department. Lieut. Hart received a complim- tenant from a studio building that two colored men in an auto- mobile "out in front" were acting "suspiciously." Connors, with two husky young patrolmen, took a police flivver on a hurried dash. Connors said he found the two colored men there all right. Found, too, a limousine, worth several thousand dollars. Moreover he noted the smart whip- untermine, which the pair was poked in. They explained they were awaiting their mistress, a wealthy woman, and they produced the license papers of the car to show that the name was Mrs. Theodosis Hall. THE AFRO AMERICAN 32nd YEAR NUMBER 5 Entered in the Postoffice at Baltimore, Matter under Act of March 3, 3 B 3 YOUTHS HELD WITHOUT BAIL FOR CRIME Arrest Follows Hunt of Six Days by Northwestern Police for Assailants of Two Girls SISTERS TELL STORY Dragged Into Culvert, They Say, as They Picked Cinders Near B. & O. Tracks Three youths, whose ages vary from 15 to 18, are being held without bail at the Northwestern Police Station on the serious charge of rape. The boys are George Cure, 18, 1814 Mullen street; Raymond Thornton, 17, 1319 N. Mount street, and George Brown, 15, 1514 Rice street. Facing them across the bar at the police station Monday were two sisters, Minnie and Brighta Wallace, aged 15 and 17, respectively, who live with their parents at 1304 N. Mount street. The alleged crime was committed Tuesday of last week and reported to the police. None of the boys were known to the girls, however, and a city-wide hunt was instituted until Monday, when Cure was arrested and identified as one of the assailants. Cure is said to have told the police who his companions were. Several other youths suspected were detained by police, but allowed to go when the girls failed to identify them. According to the Wallace girls they with a smaller sister, Corrine, aged 11, were sent out to pick cinders in the neighborhood of Laureus and Monroe streets, not far from the B. & O. tracks. They were by the three boys, and they were if they might be the three girls. "We are three a have already" Brighta is alleged to have answered. However, the boys insisted on tagging behind the girls, and when they neared a railroad culvert sized the two older ones and dragged them in out of sight. Brighta's scars were silenced by a blaze the sisters were. Corrine was not molested by the call and her sisters called to her to call the police. Failing to find an officer, Corrine went home and told the mother. It was some time later that the two girls were able to drag themselves home and report to Mrs. Wallace what had occurred. The two girls, the two boys, they said, and an examination by city physician confirmed their story of the attack. The three youths admitted attacking the girls, but denied having accomplished their purpose. Both of the victims are schoolgirls and while originally coming from the South of England, members of this for several years. With tears in her eyes, Mrs. Wallace, mother of the girls, told a representative of this paper that never since they were small girls had she failed to exercise a constant care over them, and that they had never been out alone after them. She added, the alleged assault occurred about mid-day, while the three girls were engaged in gathering loose coal and cinders from a coal dump near the railway truck and in their truggle to free themselves from their assailant, both of them were so badly injured that they were confined to their home for a week.

Mrs. Vertner Tandy, prominent architects wife and society matron, sued Dr. Ubert Conrad Vincent in the city courts for $50,000. The matron in her charge alleged that the physician made remarks reflecting upon the legitimacy of her son, Vertner Jr. Monday through his attorney, Edmund C. Austin, Dr. Vincent filed a counterstory denying the charges and alleging that the suit of Mrs. Tandy is a part of a "pre-conceived plan to slander, libel and defame him." He also asked $50,000 damages. Hardly had New York's "4000" program been in effect when Mrs. Tandy's suit last week when the counteraction of the young physician provided an additional sensation. Both parties are wel known and acknowledged as belonging to the upper set.

The Several Colored Men Arrested When Girl Said Assailant Had "Black Arms" BLACK STOCKINGS FOUND Indian Had Covered Arms With Silk Hose To Hide His Color By L. Massenhuge Phila., Pa., Oct. 10—Emmett Davis, a fullblooded Cherokee Indian, confessed he attacked Mildred Mosser, white a high school student of Media, Pa., last Thursday. It was known a few hours after the night of the attack, but the police authorities of Media, held out as long as they could because they wanted the girl to say it was a Negro. Investigating the attack, the girl went to the home of John McCarter, a friend of the family afterwards and told McCarter. With several men they went to the scene, found it had been arranged and discovered a pair of women's black stockings with the feet cut off. Returning to his home Mr. Carter tried to persuade the girl to say it was a Negro. She refused and stated: "A white man (meaning the Indian who is considered white.) spoke to me terse and, I was frightened by his actions. And he may have been the one two attacked me." She further stated, "I cannot say whether he was ill or colored because I was and was not "black arms" I also bit the man's thumb." The attack was committed at dusk and the black stockings was a trick to put it on a Negro. That night the Indian went to a physician in Chester, a few miles away for treatment of his thumb. The physician at once suspected the man and notified Media police. The Indian was arrested. He confessed to Dr. Martin Jenkins of the Pennsylvania Training School for the Feeble Minded. He also told the police of Media, but they didn't make it known at once. The girl's condition was such that she was confined to her bed. Eight or more colored men were arrested and discharged without seeing her because none of them had a bitter thumb. The girl's parents finally refused to believe she was attacked by a police officer. The stopped the girl's statement. The black stockings here out that fact. The girl threatened to come to Philadelphia and make known her assailant if the authorities in Media didn't and the result was printed in the daily papers Thursday afternoon. The lies about mob violence were found to be untrue. Colored people and whites went along as nothing more. There was no excitement over the attack. The Ku Klux Klan added color to the affair. They burned a cross in the colored section, but race people, armed to teeth destroyed it and found Ku Klux Klan literature scattered about the ground. The night riders had fled. However, the Klan, threatened the Catholics whose denomination is in majority, and owed to destroy churches. The Catholics were prepared and guarded their property: Race people trusted no mistake and were prepared if anything should happen to harm.

So she began her journey downtown. She passed several stores, that hammed fur coats. Why did she not stop in one place? The store was going to purchase the coat. ITS SAME Price, design and quality was read by her in an advertisement in the newspaper. Who sold the lady the coat is the question we are endeavoring to answer. The lady the coat was sold by a competent ad writer whom the lady has never seen. He sits in a secluded office on the third or fourth floor of the store where the coat was purchased. His salary is two and a half to three times the salary of the clerk that sold the coat. This man and the newspaper build the business. The Ac10-0 to the business men of the city.

Wing Says Pastors Are Poor Because / Others Are Paid First In a paper read before the A. M. E. Preachers' Meeting on Monday Rev. J. W. Wing, of Ellicott City, flayed the system of the A. M. E. Church, which makes it necessary for the ministers to support the presiding elders. In the course of his reading Rev. Wing said: "Preachers should be paid at least $2,000 a year. The Bishops and General Officers are paid by the financial Secretary, but the presiding elder holds the pastor for history and the Annual Conference that he gets it while the postal preacher must root leg or do "Why should the man who raises everybody else's money labor as he does with no assurance of being paid himself? It is an outrage! An organization with a hundred years standing makes way to pay some of its employees $3,000 a month, others $2,000 a year, and all this must be collected by the preacher, who has no assurance of his own pay. "It is a fact that the preacher is the most important man in the church. There was a time when the church had no Bishops or presbyteries, but it has not been a general office, but it has had preachers every since there has been a church. They are indispensable. "Why doesn't the General Secretary pay the Presiding Elders if they are necessary? Why put this burden on the preacher, who in himself is an unfamiliar enough for himself an unfamiliar after paying the Presiding Elder!" BISHOP BARS KLANSMEN Kittanning, Ft. Oct. 11.—Bishop J.

The film tells a story that touch the life of every man woman and child of the present day and no lover of worthwhile pictures can afford to miss it. GAYETY "Liza" Those theatre-goers who are passing up the "Liza" show at the Cavety this week, are missing about the best known show that was shown in this town since the thirty days of Cole and Johnson's shows, particularly "Red Moon" packed house, however, greeted by performance midnight Sunday. "Liza" is composed of a long cast of a talented aggregation of real actors and actresses, headed by Eddie Greencoe and Thaddeus Bryant. It be said here and now that these two young men without a peer in their particular class. As a singing and dancing team they have no superior either of their own color or otherwise. One of the hit, of their innumerable offerings was a running song that was sung by their sentimental adoptions. They also worn like one to the manner born. On the books of the above-mentioned gentlemen for popularity was Conrad Saunders the gifted singing comedian who choked a big hit in a singing special. Unlike most musical comedies, "Liza" has an honest-to-goodness plot running then which has to do with the collection of money to build a monument to the late mayor and the schening of a gang of crooks to get possession of the money. There is also a slight bore. In the unbinding of the plot line comedy work is done byilly Mills, trivia *Miller*, Doe Bee Green, all of whom work under work and Will Cook as the independent specif. A grave-aged some in which Miller and he are supposed to marry and body to seize 526h and add to mounting gifts of the show. Other special hits were a song *Old Mills* song by Steeling Grant A large first and simple charge of young men and women who are members of comedy in a manner that doesn't make the audience wish for the comics. Lieut. Tim Eyman is in charge of the orchestra and he handles it like the master he is. A comedian is one of the features of the pattement. We repeat that who misses "Iza" are missing a praetor. Call VErnon 6016 Next Monday and Tuesday will certainly be "Men's Day, yes, and women's too," at the Roosevelt, for the picture on this day according to the title will touch and appertain to the puzzling subject that has ever agitated the man namely: "The Truth About Wives." This picture tells the story of a woman who is entangled with three men. One of them she is married to, one desires her third passion and one loves her. Betty Elythe of "Queen of Sheba fame" is the woman. Wednesday and Thursday, the big day will again be a subject that shows the dear mysterious sex occupying all the spot light, namely "The Woman Conquered" Beautiful Katherine MacDonald supported in the principal male leads by Tyrone Powers and Mitchell Lewis will be the woman in the case. Friday and Saturday a drama of underworld life entitled "Shipy McGhee" will be the main offering, co-starring Colleen Moore and Wheeler Oakman. Jack Wiggins and his Ten Dancing Denons Company is the stage attraction at the Star this week where they packed the house at every show Monday and turned away The show is composed principally of dancing competition among the members of the company chief among which is that between Wiggins, the master and John Jefferson, who gives him a close run. The dancing is occasionally broken by song conditions by Ben Smith leading women, who also bad the male part and crowd google-eyed him in dummying. A chorus of girls complete the cast.

This sketch which has to do with the wife who is kept continually in the wastie by her husband in taking him with the money although - seen her several times before, is one of the funniest imaginable. This is due chiefly to the very skillful blackface character work of Miss Clarke whose impersonation is a gem and the equally skillful comedy work of the character also under cork and he put over his lines showed him a real actist. Jenkins, who was scheduled to assume the husband's role in the sketch after the Monday show, pleased chiefly in a monologue an songs which added to the very high reputation he has already established hereabouts as one of the blackface novel field. Another feature of the show was the rendition of "Dear Old Southland" in a very good soprano voice by Anna White, Baltimore girl, better known as Little Bit".

Varnell's Review By J. A. Jackson Star Theater, Shevreport, La. Sept. 24, evening show. Boise DeLegge's A Bandana Girls with an hour and ten minutes performance scored 30 per cent measured as to talent and lost five off of that because of costum- ing. The show drew a full house. Boise is the straight, Florence DeLegge the principal, Issa Morant and Johnny Grey straight. The choreo includes Ethel McCoy, Vicia Wilson, Jennie Hill, Candy Clark and Dora Carr. The chorus, opened full stage and took a hand, Miss DeLegge's number did likewise and the comic made a speech that drew applause. Grey and Grey doing their makeup are seared doily. DeVoy and Carr singing with a piano simply ripped the house retiring to three hours after an encore. Miss DeLonge and the girls offered another number that was well received after which a slight plot was introduced. During this Miss DeLonge ran away with the comedy homes. The scene was set in a cabaret and the act closed with a fast dance offering.

The show opens with a prologue and then descends into a number of short shows which give the leading members of the company an opportunity to display creative talents. their one. One of these skills, which deals with court trial in which Higgins impersonates the judge, state's attorney and attorney for the defense is one of the most amusing things imaginable and demonstrates the or yight skill of Higgins as a both producer. Ross runs Higgins a close second in the comedy line and made his biggest hit with an impersonation of the late Bert Williams in his, "At the Polka Club song," which the feminine line is Valda Snow, a very pretty young woman, whose versatility seemed to be endless. She did a nice part in the prologue, sang several songs in a very sweet voice, did some real clay house shaking and sang a song of violence, by doing, some Into the audience by doing some corner jazzing that won her eight encores. Another female performer who "held up the show," was Julia Moody singing her famous "Da Dau Strain," which drew encores until she had to retire from exhaustion. Ernest Whitman who played "straight" with his usual clearness during the part won a big prize for his singing and whistling specialty. Others in the east whose contribution to the evening's entertainment stood out were Elvira Johnson, who put over several "Blues" in a manner that won her a warm hand; Alice Goss, who sang several songs and Walter Badie, who scored heavily with some difficult dance steps. The Sutton, well known former member of the playboy Players played the role of widow in her usual finished style.

THE DISTRICT FIVE FOURTH STREET 1234 FOURTH STREET BIGBOPS BEAUTY PEDIOS & INSTITUTE NO SCHOOL AT THE HOUSE OF REFORMATION Boys Recently Released From Cheltenham Say Institution is Without Competent Teachers No school work is being done at The House of Reformation for Colo- red Boys at Cheltenham, and none has been done since last April. This is the information gleaned from two boys recently released from tit institution. Naturally the boys is not anxious for publicity and as such their names are not used. C. of the boys said that he worked at the institution on a miscellaneous gang which worked on the farms, scrubbed floors, cleaned leaves on the lawn. No rakes were allowed them, he said, but the boys on hands and knaces used their fingers to scrap and other debris to clean the lawns. The other boy was employed, he said, in the broom shop, working about eight-hours a day. He was present at the time he said when Earl Crowdy was hogged by guards and sent to the hospital. Crowdy's leg was not cut, but he had been knocked out of place, and the lad was in the hospital for several weeks. Any or all of the guards are authorized to correct the boys with straps or sticks, he said, and wippings are frequent. Asked when he had been to school the youngster, who was in the fifth grade before going to Cheltenham, declared that there had been no class room study since he was 14. He stated that the guards employed in the cotages to watch the boys were not well trained in his opinion, and incapable of serving as school teachers. The latest report of Superintendent Tyles of Cheltenham shows that the majority of the boys sent to the institution were minors without proper care. In many cases no one was committed to care, and seated away until they were 21 years of age. i The report also shows that only about one-third of the three hundred boys there are able to read and write while the others are partly or absolutely illiterate. According to the report, "school sessions are held only during the winter months. When the weather conditions are favorable for farmers and their livestock, they are able to work instead of going to school. Work season has continued until the month of November."

Trial site OYTKII But the Best Figures Show Lowest Negro Death Rate Continued from Page 1 Col. 1. longevity prospect constantly from wider economic opportunities and from public health measures. The Northward migration of the race had not had any effect, adversely or otherwise, upon the mortality rates of this insured group. In 1822, 41 percent, of the Company's business on Negro lives was done in the South and Southwest, and while this figure has not changed in years, the change of residence has apparently not had any effect on the life-expectancy figures quoted above. The fact is, that North and South, the condition of the urban Negro has steadily improved and there is no inference that this tendency will shaken. "While Negro mortality is still much in excess of that among white persons, the gap between the rates for the two races is being closed. Tuberculosis, typhoid fever, malaria and other diseases which were resisted for excessive death rates among Negroes are being taught brought under control. This is being accomplished by the organized public health movement and by the Negroes themselves through their press and other facilities for dissemination of instruction in hygiene. The rate of Negro deaths is the rise in the level of well-being for the Negro, brought about by better economic conditions."

CLOSED WHILE BOARD SEEKS A SECRETARY Building Shut Two Months First Time in History Doors Were Ever Closed PRESIDENT FRYE SPEAKS Says Opening Is Up To Central "Y", Which Holds the Asked when the Drudid Hill avenue branch of the Y. W. C. A. closed for the past two months, would reopen, Mrs. George Frye, 1018 Linden avenue, the president, said today: "On January 19, 1920 the Colored Y. W. C. A. became affiliated with the Central Y. W. C. A. downtown, where Y. W. C. A. got the key of the Drudid Hill Avenue Branch Y. W. C. A. even the key held by Mrs. Frye. Some time ago Mrs. Benjamin Coppin white, planned a meeting of the officials of the Central Y and the officials of the Colored Y. This meeting was postponed and was to have been held last week. It was again postponed on account of Mrs. Coppin being ill. The Central YY claims it will open the Drudid Hill Branch as soon as it gets a competent secretary to take charge. I have submitted names of several secretaries but for some reason they have been rejected." Mrs. Frye has learned that several "YS" including one in Atlantic city have been closed under similar circumstances. This is the first time the local Y. W. C. A. has been closed since it has been closed since it was founded a score of years ago. At one time there was several thousand dollars in bank for a new building, but much now available is not known. Originally the institution was founded as a home for working girls and for a number of years it flourished under volunteer workers who bought and paid for the present building and planned a still larger institution. Mrs. Ida Hilton 544 Dolphin St. chairman of the Social Committee, sold the opening of the Drupid Hill Avenue Branch was up to, the general branch was up to, the general branch was disatisfied with the management last year and ordered it closed. Mrs. W. T. Coleman, chairman of the Religious Committee Board said: "The "Y" will be closed until we find a competent person to give all her time and attention to it. It is a waste of time and money. The Central body is looking for an efficient secretary and I understand Miss Isa Bowles of the New York office is also interested in helping us find one. Mrs. Kate Gwathney 418 Mosher direct, another member of the Board of Manager declared the "Y" needs both a matron and executive and they can they recommend by the National Board, the Association will be open again.

With a previously registered vote of 27,331, this supplemental registration in 1929 there were 36,827 colored voters on the roll, or 7,347 more than present.

Strause, Superintendent West admitted Friday at the meeting of the School Board that overcrowding in the colored schools is twice as great as in the white schools.

At the same time the number of part-time pupils in colored schools, he said had increased, especially in the higher grades. A further discussion of the disclosures was postponed until the executive session which followed immediately.

Nature intends every woman to be healthy, full of energy, well and strong. If she is not, something is getting in the way of Nature. There must be interference around the efforts of Nature he is strained or perverted. Nature regulates the body by means of nerve force. When the nervous system is healthy, nerve force off flows of nerve force or energy continually going through the nerves to every part of the body. Only the nerves convey this energy. Pinch a nerve and the nerve force off as long as you keep your foot "toes off." Nerve pressure causes disease. CHIROPRACTIC REMOVES CAUSE! Every sick woman has nerve force. This force off passes to occur at the spine. Chiropractic Adjustments remove this pressure, permitting normal supply of nerve force to pass freely to the weakened part or organ, and health problems arise.

Bond dismissed the case of Mrs Mary Kelly Wheeler, widow of the late W. H. J. Wheeler, brought to force an accounting and secure the possession of the barber shop the latter is said to have given to his long time employee and associate, Charles Jackson. The second skirmish in the legal battle over the $30,000 estate of the late W. H. J. Wheeler took place in Circuit Court No. 2, Friday. This skirmish involved the disposition of the barber shop which the late Mr. Wheeler conducted for fifty years at 114 N. Howard street, decision went against Mrs. Wheeler and her sister, Mrs. George Kelly Harris Smith, his sister, Judge Duke C. Bond confirmed a conveyance of this business said to have been made to Charles Jackson, life-long associate of Mr. Wheeler, by dismissing the plea made by the two women for an accounting and possession. Widow Denies Gift It was claimed by Charles Jackson, for 35 years head barber and associate of the dead man, that on April 6, shortly before the latter was taken to Poughkeepsie by Mrs. Wholeler, Wheeler gave him, in keeping with a long standing promise, the barber business they both had built up together with his wife, with a Will executed by Mr. Wheeler sometime before his death and which has been offered for probate in the Baltimore courts, also substantiated this agreement by conveying to Mr. Jackson the business as well as a dwelling at 1123 Eating street, with the last tenex occupied. The business is conducted also set out that it was to revert automatically to Jackson. Widow Claimed Shop Mrs. Wheeler and Mrs. Smith took the witness stand and denied that any such gift had been made to Mr. Jackson. In their testimony both of the women stated that the deceased instructed them to sell the place for $2,500. Armed with power of the state, Mrs. Wheeler was in St. Francis Hospital in Poughkeepsie, Mrs. Wheeler and Mrs. Smith came to Baltimore to dispose of the estate and it was at this time that they allege that they took the mutter of the shop up with Mr. Jackson. According to their testimony Jackson wanted to buy the business and offered $1,000 as purchase price, which they refused. In their statement that he went to Poughkeepsie and made an effort to see Mr. Wheeler with the purpose of having him sign a paternity turning the property over. Albert Smith, the present husband of Mrs. Georgine Smith, testified that Jackson came to Doughkeepsie and made an effort to persuade him to use his influence to induce him to sell his bill for $1,000. This, he stated, he refused to do, notwithstanding the fact that Mr. Jackson demanded that it be done as a Masonic obligation. Jackson On Stand On the stand Mr. Jackson denied having made an offer to buy the shop. When Mrs. Wheeler and her sister came to Baltimore, he stated, they demanded that the business he turned over. He then went to Poughkeepsie to see Mr. Wheeler, and he confirmed the gift. According to his story, this is what happened on this trip: "I went to the community house where I expected to find Mr. Wheeler, and after being introduced to Mr. Smith, was told that Mr. Smith was at a hospital." "Which Smith was he asked? Do this Smith replied that he did not know. A man standing near stated that he was at St. Francis. Fake Phone Message "Noticing a 32nd degree Masonelle ring on the finger of Smith I then took his hand in Masonic grip and showed him a similar ring on my finger and demanded that I be taken to see Mr. Wheeler.

NEW TEACHERS NAMED Douglass High Teachers BALTIMORE, OCT. 12, 1923 HENRYTON HOSPITAL HASTWELVE PATIENTS New State Tuberculosis Sanitarium Recently Opened in Carroll Co., Can Accommodate 90 Patients ROADS ROUGH ON AUTOS Visitors Advised To Go by Train Whenever Rail Fall Is At All Likely Nurses of the Health Department, who made a trip to Henryton Sunday using the City's Ford cars went by way of the Frederick Road to W. Friendship, turning there to the right, one mile and a half to the left, across road. Here they struck four miles of dirt road winding along the Patapsco River. Three times they crossed the river at points where there were no bridges, winding left with shaping a long hill which made their radiators hot. Their speedometers showed the trip to be 25 miles and the women drivers called it a day's work when they got home. The new colored tuberculosis hospital opened three weeks ago at Henryton in Carroll county had twelve patients. Dr. Wm. Siegal, white, who came from Mt. Sinai Hospital in Pennsylvania, youthful in appearance, small in stature is in charge. He reports that patients are coming in every day or so, but that the number will not be allowed to grow so rapidly that the staff cannot handle them. Two wards on the first floor are open, one accommodating male and the other female patients. The remainder of the first floor is occupied by a complete laundry, a modern kitchen and dining room, where patients serve themselves, the catering service, and the office for Dr. Siegal and the two white nurses in charge of the wards. Also employed there are seven colored nurses and five colored men as cooks, waiters, etc. Two white outside men make up the working force at present. Silent-On Colored Personnel Asked whether he approved a complete colored personnel for the hospital. Dr. Siegel referred the reporter to Dr. Victor Cullen, head of the State Sanitarium at Sabilasville, and in charge of the tuberculosis work at Henryton also. He was, however, anxious to have a word to go out that consumptives should take advantage of hospital treatment when the disease is in its first stages. Many patients he said, we will get nearly before they will get themselves admitted to the hospital. Then the per contage of recoveries is small. Tuberculosis is a white man's disease, according to Dr. Siegel, and the Negro sucumbes to it more easily than whites because he has only been exposed to the germs of the disease by his contact with the white man in the past three centuries. Dr. Siegel admitted that consumption was probably known among to Egyptians several thousand years ago, but clearly it did diffuse among the Egyptians as so-called. He discounted the theory that bad housing conditions among Negroes was the primary cause for the large number of deaths from tuberculosis. Building Painted White The hospital is located at Henryton on the old line of the Baltimore and Ohio. 25 miles from Baltimore. The building is constructed of concrete and hollow tile painted white. The structure is shaped like the letter W with one 250 foot and the other 750 foot. Side porches are on all three floors, large French windows admit sunlight to every nook and cranny of the building. Patients unable to pay will be admitted free, others will be charged $3.50 a week for treatment. The Legislature appropriated $133,000 for the building and $10,000 for the next legislature is expected to provide a still larger sum to build additional wings to the present structure. "Edna" Gets Divorce J. Pettigrew faced Justice Rohleder in the Northeastern Police Station charged with bigamy. His accuser was a woman who was armed with a marriage license which said Edna. Pettigrew was the woman he married and that she was the "Edna." Attorney J. Stewart Davis brought out the fact that Pettigrew had been married to a woman whose name was "Edna" and that he subsequently lived with the woman who had him arrested following his leaving her. The case was dismissed. MENCHINE OPPOSED IN RACE FOR THE LEGISLATURE Voters Recall He Lined Up With West to Pass City Segregation Ordinance Thirteen Years Ago DAVENPORT IS ACTIVE Would Work for Repeal of Jim Crow Car Law if Elected to State Legislature Supporters of Harry Levin white candidate for the State Senate from the Fourth District are out to beat William G. Menchine, his Democratic opponent. Menchine it is being recalled was one of those who as a member of the North Baltimore Improvement Association worked hard for the West Segregation measure when it was before the City Council twelve years ago. Champion of the measure which would restrict colored people to certain blocks included Edwin T. Dickerson, Milton Deshields, S. S. A. A. S. Goldsborough, Wm. L. Marbury and a number of others. At a meeting of the Improvement Association Menchine is quoted as saying: "According to the 14th annual report of the Bureau of Statistics and information, the colored people paid taxes on property of an assessed valuation in 1304 of $617,662. The assessed valuation of Negro property in the Northeastern police district was $131,966 and in the Northwestern district $300,186. The total assessed valuation of Negro property in these two district was $422,152 leaving an assessed valuation of $185,510 in the Eastern, Southern, Central Western and Northern police districts. The total annual expenses informs us that out of the total Negro population for the entire City of 81,381 there reside in the Northeastern and Northwestern police districts 55,986 colored persons. These figures clearly demonstrate that the colored people have more than a rental interest than the blacks and there they intend to stay. "There is another fact that should be considered. In 1904 there were $1,381 Negroes residing in Baltimore; in November 1910 there were $8,065. Where do you propose to house this increasing Negro population? I say house them on 'mixed streets' where there are now living- and working-people, never again to appreciate and house your increasing white population on exclusively white streets—on new streets, if you choose—where property valuations will remain staple for years to come and thus accomplish true segregation. "There is still another reason why 'mixed streets' should be allowed to work out their own salvation, which, in my humble opinion, means to become wholly colored. It is a well known fact, that a very large percentage of the colored race suffers from tuberculosis. For this reason, if no other, we should not encourage the occupancy by a white family of a residence formerly occupied by a colored family. Yet this is exactly what the law at present does. It compels the owner of a colored 'mixed street', where the majority of the houses are occupied by white persons, to rent a house formerly occupied by a Negro to a white person and none other." On the other hand Levin supporters declare that his record is clean and are therefore heartily advocating his election. Dayenport Active Louis H. Davenport, one of the three colored candidates for the Legislature from the Fourth District is busy convassing for votes. Not only does Mr. Davenport stand by the Republican platform as enunciated by the convention, but he has three additions. He advocates; repeal of the law requiring citizens coming into Maryland from other states declaring their intentions before they can become registered; 2 Repeal of the Jim Crow law requiring separate accommodations for white and colored passengers on railroads, and other carriers in the State; abolishing of all useless commissions and employees in State offices and consolidation of the departments where possible in order to lighten the burden of taxpayers. Mr. Davenport was born in Northumberland County, Va., 48 years ago, and attended public schools in Nicholsville, Kentucky. He was a member of the Republican City Committee for four years and was a member of organizations including Masons, Odd Fellows, St. Luke's and Moses. JUDGE,-Good Morning! JUDGE,-Go Mr. and Mrs. Morbray Finds for Murray—Bootleg Ri Divide Love Finds A Way Mr. and Mrs. Edward Morbray 933 S. Howard street, have been married only one month. But that has been sufficient time for se- veral things to happen in their tur- bulent sojourn together. In fact, Mr. and Mrs. Morbray must have started off on their honeymoon with the "green-eyed monster" present, for it was not three weeks after the jingling of the wedding bells as usual, before the wedding of dying pigs and pans were heard and Mr. Morbray was told to take some air. So last Saturday Mr. Morbray complied with the air-taking request and left for parts unknown. But three days or lonely, single sadness was too much for both of them, and they were standing the fact that both of them realized this neither of them could think of a way of mending the matrimonial rift. Then it was that a friend suggested a sure way that would bring them together. "Have him arrested for non-support," said this wise advisor, and no soon said than done. So that on Monday Morbray Mr. Morbray found himself Being His Honor on this charge. "Why is it that you won't support your wife?" asked Magistrate Potee after reading the charge. "Judge, I shure want to support her," Potee said. "Did you hear that, Mrs. Morbray?" asked His Honor. "Judge, I shure did, and I want him to support me," raptiously said the love-sick spouse. "Judge, I shure and sin no more," was the injunction as the pair walked out with their friends all smiling and happy again. Won't Eat His Chicken Dinner Alfred Murray, 648 Rahore street, had a dream of a Sunday dinner where four nice, sweet and juicy chickens would be the main object of attraction, but Mr. Murray will not eat those chickens for some reason. On Saturday night Murray, who has been employed for some time at the Lexington Market, was arrested when it was found that he had "haid aside" four dressed chickens until some time convenient to take them home. You take them, you ask those chickens?" Murray was asked after he had admitted to "just laying them aside." "He just planned a little Sunday dinner," was the reply made by his attorney. Judge. I pay him enough to get his juicy dinner with," said his employer as the Magistrate pronounced that he would be where he would not likely enjoy those chickens for some time at least. Police Solve A Mystery When a spirited game in progress between the Black Sox and Ed Bolden's Hildaleats failed to hold the interest of a considerate group of the attending fans, Sunday, an investigation by the police showed the good and sufficient reasons for the divided attention. Lawrence Brooks, 30, 5 W. York street; Garfield Lawson, 42, 545 W. West street, and Edward Shields, 54, 632 Sterling street, were all halled into the Southern Police Station charged with selling bootleg whiskey. When arrested all three of the men were said to have jugs from which they were dispensing the stuff, and doing a "standing room" trick, and easily, the order of the trio, seems to have had the most luck, for when examined at the station it was found that he had garnered in $120, not understanding the fact that he had just begun to get busy. They were all held for the prohibition authorities. When Mr. and Mrs. William Braxton, 1121 N. Gilmore street. Mrs. Marie L.

Mrs. Braxton insisted that they all belonged to her, and she proceeded to enforce this decision by use of a smear gun. Mr. Braxton formed "his brain." Then Braxton left for reinforcements and returned later only to find every window and door barred against him. He decided to make a surprise entry by way of the roof and was putting his idea into practice when the police arrived and took him in charge. He told the Magistrate that he wanted his share of the children. He was fined $25 and costs by the Honor.

NAZARITES TO MEET Annual reports will be submitted at the session of the Grand Auditor of Nazarites next Tuesday examine The Purchase of $700 Ring Leads to Arrest of Post Office Clerk OFFICIALS SAY HE SWIPED $100,000 Inspectors Led to Home of Wm. S. Jackson Get $20,000 Back New York, Oct. 11--4K. N. F. Service) William S. Jackson, postal clerk in the Vavreck Street foreign branch, was taken into custody last Friday by Post Office Inspectors, charged with the theft from the mails of $2000 in cash and securities. He was arraigned before U. S. Commissioner Hitchcock and released in bail. Jackson, who lives at No. 87 Durston avenue, Osming, has been shadowed by inspectors since September 19. According to them he confessed the theft of $2000 and led them to his home and turned the money over to them. The money surrendered is alleged to be $2,000 in British and $5,000 in Argentine money. He denied the theft of $53,000 worth of French bonds. Packages of registered foreign mail began disappearing mysteriously from the Varkey branch last July, according to the inspectors, and when it was discovered that Jackson had plenty of funds they began to check upon his expenditures. He was making $14 per month and had been in the postal service about ten years. Among his expenditures since September 19, according to Inspector Finch, were $700 for a pig $15 for magazines. $20 for under wear and $20 for tulip bulbs. CHESTERTOWN, MD. Chestertown, Md.

Says Mrs. Stokes Bought Colored Affinity Silk Pajamas Stokes Says His Wife Liked Bright Lights of Col- Resorts MFR STOKES DENIES ALL Alleges Hubby "Framed" Her In Order to Secure Easy Divorce Chicago, DL, Oct. 11—Did Mrs. W. E. D. Stokes, white wife of the millionaire have a colored affinity? Did she buy him $25 silk pajamas? These are questions that will be answered when this sensational Last week's divorce fight was notable, because of the large number of Negroes it involved. It was claimed by Mrs. Stokes that her New York millionaire husband had sought to degrade her by declaring she had been an habilitate some years ago and that, during that time, she had had a number of Negro loves. Pictures, now claimed to be false, were shown with Mrs. Stokes in compromising positions with these underworld birds. She was said to have sent a $55.00 pair of pajamas to Jackson, colored Chicago, Uni-taker. The Grand Jury has to date returned nine indictments, two of which his Stokes himself and his lawyer Daniel Nugent, while the others involved a group of colored people, Robert Lee, a deputy sheriff for Brunswick, a taxi driver Miles McIntosh, a lawyer for Stokes, Henry Tapsley of New York and Ray Hubert a waiter, on charge of conspiracy to fabricate evidence. It was charged before the Grand Jury that Stokes and his agents had paid to have various colored people who had formerly worked in the police department to defraud the police, involving Mrs. Stokes. The Keystone National Detective Agency Sheridan A. Brussem, principal, was served with a visit dues teum and its head was closed for several hours with head officials of the State's Attorney's office.

Many of their investigations, it is ruined, being conducted from as far East as Scotland Yards. The State's Attorney office at tempted to force from Richard E. Westbrooks, Negro lawyer and former assistant state's attorney, and Stokes attorney in Chicago, information that might prove of value to the millionaires' wife.

'SUPERMAN TOMAN' Eleventh Installment Dixon smiled inwardly, strong that it affected even his himself, as there flashed into ads in the leading Sunday medicals, as well as street caritions to white people to remind details crowded into his min heated department stores; on York subways; of that of even men and girls in thin shirt-cited; he thought also of the on the car used by passengers, but mentioned none stead: "May I read to you we say on this?" He took our following quotation from "The Dixon smiled inwardly. Was this man's prejudice so strong that it affected even his sense of smell? He asked himself, as there flashed into his mind visions of full-page ads in the leading Sunday newspapers and popular periodicals, as well as street car ads, recommending preparations to white people to remove their odors. Many other details crowded into his mind as the odor of shop-girls in heated department stores; of crowded whites in the New York subways; of that of even cleanly, refined white women and girls in thin shirt-waists, particularly when excited; he thought also of the great amount of deodorants on the car used by passengers to drown their various odors, but mentioned none of these facts. He said instead: "May I read to you what Sir Harry Johnston has to say on this?" He took out his notebook and read the following quotation from "The Negro in the New World.": "A striking peculiarity of the musky, goat-like smell exhaled from the sweat, more especially the axillary glands. The odor is markedly characteristic of the African (It has not hitherto been recorded among Asiatic Negroes), but also occurs to a much lighter stinger degree among the Europeans as an exhalation from the armpits. Yet, I would make bold to say that this skin odor is not so disgusting as that which comes from heated and unwashed Europeans and Asiastes. It is practically absent from many Africans who keep their bodies washed and clean. While in the United States I mixed with Negroes and scorched no more disgustable smel, for the Negroes, like the American whites, are an inherently clearly people. I only touched the presence of disgustable body odors coming from the offensively dirty Chinese traveling in public conveyances or from newly arrived immigrants in New York. "Finet says: 'For a long time it was thought that white men were exempt from this small but now we have to admit a strong small peculiar to white skins—a small that whose deference to be insupportable.' "Dr. Majola Agbeli a native African scientist in his address before the Universal Races Congress, said that the African complaints of a 'racial color' about white men, 'I'll tell you an experience of my own,' continued Dixon. "One day I entered the Chicago Art Institute after closing hours. As I entered I was assaulted. I was shaken and strengthened by Negress bonding banana boats at Port Autono, in the West Indies. Tracking down this pungent odor I found it came from one of the segregated women, who was not a Negro, but a Pole. It was, unobviously an odor of this sort that Husseyman, the great French novelist, described in Le Gossset when an speaking of the odor from the amphyses of French women working in the heels, he says. It was exasperating. It was exasperating like an unstoppable bottle of alkali, it seized you, irritating your innocent membrane with a regon odor." Silence for a few minutes broken only by the rattling of the train, Dixon, in spite of his endeavor to suppress, it, had the bougainvillea of a winner. The Senator appeared worried and in at ease. He apparently could think of himself, before he could say, "few minutes ago," he objected, "you said 'Can-Amian blood, figuratively speaking.' What do you mean? 'The next thing you'll be telling me is that there is no difference between that and Negro blood.'" "There is neither Caucasian nor any other kind of blood—just human blood. May I read you what Pimot says to say, 'I will just stand the place and was about to begin reading when both men started nervously from their seats.'" "What's that?" demanded the JACKSON WINS OVER WHEELER HEIRS Continued From Page 9 Col. 1 indicated that the man could not be seen. On further demand he was taken to the hospital but was never returned. He tore himself to shattering. Among those testifying for Mr. Jackson were two white patties of the place, Messas, Castleberg and James R. Hill, who stated that in several conversations with the late Mr. Wheeler, he had started to them that he intended giving this business to Jackson in compensation for his pathetic association with him. The outstanding testimony for Jackson, however, was given by a Joseph P. Evans, who stated that on the morning of April 6, Wheeler had told him that he had kept his promise and given the shop to Throw Away Floral Designs. A sensation was sprung when Miss Rea Marshall, for sometime manicurist in the shop, took the stand. In her testimony she stated that on many occasions Mr. Wheeler had stated his intentions of giving Mr. Jackson the shop. She then grilled by counsel for the complainants and the question was asked why, in view of her and Jackson's professed regard for the dead man, they had failed to be present at the funeral. "In the first place," she replied, "we were not wanted or invited, and when we unidepilated we went to the funeral would take place at 10 o'clock when it actually took place at 3:00. When I arrived the body had gone. We learned later, that they even threw away the floral design sent by the personnel of the shop. "Forecast Bitter Fight. The spirit of the testimony forecasted a bitter fight among the relatives for this estate. Shortly before Wheeler died it developed that a now will made after he had been taken, to Poughkeepsie conveyed all his property to him, and will made are in Baltimore cut her out with continued on Galley Six By J. A. ROGERS Was this man's prejudice so his sense of smell? He asked to his mind visions of full-page newspapers and popular periodicals, recommending preparative their odors. Many other did as the odor of shop-girls in crowded whites in the Newen cleanly, refined white wowaisists, particularly when ex-great amount of deodorants ingers to drown their various of these facts. He said inwhat Sir Harry Johnston has put his notebook and read the Negro in the New World.": Senator. A noise like that of a barking dog was coming from the body of the car. "Someone having a nightmare, "I should say," laughed Dixon. "One hears some strange noises on a sleeping car at night." "Can't be" said the other gruffly. "That's a dog." Dixon went in to investigate. Soon he returned smiling. "You were right, sir. It was a dog. A lady had a pooch in her basket. In making down the boots I pushed the basket up against the steam pipes. The poor little fellow was being coated alive and he was trying to tell us all about it." Dixon went on to tell of a passenger who walked in his sleep and had a narrow escape from stepping of a moving train. But the Senator was apparently the one who brought up the original conversation. Dixon remembered the passage he had started to read, finding it again, he began: Dixon found another place and read: "The oldest of all human classifications (color) is in the same time one of the most defective. Its errors are obvious the moment a man is born, and of the categories are considered. For, while among the whites there are men who skins are as black as ebony, the Bichials or the Black Moors of Senegal, there are among the blacks fair or yellow skins like the Bushmen. Where is this difference of color? The skin of the Negro, the yellow man, and the white is identified as to that which dominates the mucous membrane and the epidermis. What varies is the color of the cells of the mucous membrane; these are blackish."

But when this difference of coloring is examined closely, it must be acknowledged that the milieu represented in particular in this case by the intensity of the solar rays, excercises a preponderant influence on it." We have also a quotation from Von Luschan, Professor of Anthropology in the University of Berlin, on this matter of color, from his address at the Universal Races Congress: "Still weaker and more objectionable is the division as to color. We now know that color of skin and hair are only the effect of environment, and that we are fair because our ancestors lived for thousands of years in a world nothing else but lack of pigment and our ancestors lost part of theirs because they had no use for it." Schopenhauer in 'The World as Will and Idea,' says: 'There is no such thing as a white race, much as this is talked of, but every white man is a faded or beached one.' He added: "I do not know whether you have observed it, sir, but there is a great similarity between the variities in man and dog. There are dogs with white skins and woolly hair, with long noses and woolly hair, with long noses and snub noses; with round heads and long heads; with high cheek bones and ordinary ones, just as among black men and white men. There is also a suspicious resemblance between the color of Caucasian and just plain pork, a food condensed by Mohammadans, Jews and Zulus, indeed, very few Caucasian beauties can equal康熙 the roe, dainly freshness of a newly shaved sucking-pig. The Senator was listening attentively and said nothing. Dixon resumed his reading: "Very frequently the so-called inferior races show precisely the physiological properties which by revising all preconceived methods place them at the head of humanity. After stating that superior races are furthermore removed from the anthropoid apes, whilst in Serbia they are still more primitive, being together all the facts which in this respect favor the whites and entirely forget those in which Negroes are shown to be favored. "In the blood of modern Europeans flows that of Negroes who lived in the Continent at the end of the Quarterly epoch. "Let us remember that, according to Ginsberg Sergi Proof, Briaton and others, the white race, the ethnological pride of Europe, is the front of a Negro race—the EU-Africa front—in Europe from time immemorial and who came from North Africa." "But what of the skull of the Negro?" objected the Senator, "The brain of the black man is much smaller than that of the white. The complexity of the brain of the black man is also far less intricate. It is not unlike that of an outraging-tongue. The sinuses of the Negro's skull also close much earlier than the white man's, and thus prevent the growth of the brain."

Along with the "Buddies and the "Pops" there were other names which he used commonly to designate certain types of people who impressed him favorably or unfavorably as the case might be, but who belonged in a pigeon hole along with others. They had not sufficient of the distinctly different to escape a general nickname and name, but who anyone whom he suspected of being dishonorable he called "Chinkapin." In explaining why he had adopted this apposition in the case of a very untidy boy who cleaned his stable and also in speaking of a well-groomed, but notoriously dishonest hanger-on at the stage door of a theatre, he said that he was strongly impressed to call them "Chinkapin"; they were both dirty; one to personal appearance and the other to the said New York was full of "Chinkapins"; they were easier to end than potatoes.

A. B. "For instance, he called W. C. Fields, 'Pops' because, he once told me, Fields' blunt hairstyle is that he looked and he looked like the illustrated character of that name. But whenever mentioning Will Fields to me or to any one else Bert would call him 'Whitey'. We had a call boy whose duties, though simple, seemed to tax his mental abilities and he always called him 'Useless'. A certain Mr. Rosenthal he named 'Einstein' and I, obviously because of my size, was even a bigger man than Bert, he called 'Tiggy'. Mr. LeMaire has recited to our mind a number of other nicknames and some of the whimsical reasons which Williams gave for his use of them. He called a number of his men's friends "Gold" and "Paul". His wife he always addressed as "Muriel", but in speaking of her he used "The Lady" one of her friends, who years ago appeared in their chorus, was named Daisy, but Bert never called her anything but "Tucked". He always hit upon the nickname as soon as he met the person. His faithful valet through the years, is a man named Chappelle nicknamed "Chappy" and a well-known song writer who is not very tall, he referred to as "Little Bits", but to his face he called him "Paul". He was a character in the LeMaire company, whom he coached in pantomime, because "Twinkletoes" to the whole company. In speaking of Mrs. Bessie McCoy Davis, who was in the same company with Williams up to the time of her marriage to the late Richard Barding Davis, he always called her "Miss Marvellous," Mrs Davis, who lived Williams very much and saw him quite often at the theatre, answered to "Author," his protege, Will Vodley, he called "Willy Ueber," and a small, highly cultured woman who wrote some SYRACUSE, N, Y.

I have another friend whose compliments are rare and not often undserved. I suppose that's why I remember this one as the "best of all." We had been visiting my people, some of whom are rather careless of speech, when he said: "How is it that I've known you nearly four months and have never heard you ever use shung?" I'm sorry I didn't quite deserve the compliment, being careless at times of my language; but he sure I'm trying to deserve it, even if I haven't any school now to copy my errors—for that was the reason. EX-TEACHER For Baby's Bed Instead of making heavy, quilted pads for baby's bed I use old cotton blankets, cutting a double blanket into about three or four pieces, crosswise, and hem the raw edges. These may be folded to any desired size, are very absorbent and can be quickly dried in any weather and kept clean and sanitary. I find double surface rubber sheeting more economical to use under the pads. This may also be used to make apron bills to protect the youngster's clothing at meal time, and, unlike offloth, lasts forever. MRS.

Capt. Doneghy Plunges 5 Hits. Thru Centre for the Only Score of the Game By Afro Sports Editor Washington, Oct. 6.—A. and T. College, of Greensboro, N. C., came to Washington today and sent shi- vers all up and down the backs of Howard rooters. Howard won 7-8, but not before the Tar Heels had showed mid-season football and actually crossed the home team's goal line. But for an off-side play in the line, this would have tied the score and given the visitors the needed punch to win the game in the final period. This is how it happened: First Quarter The first quarter passed with the piskigin being kicked back and forth out of dangerous territory by both teams. Howard, however, making two first downs in this period through the great line plunging of Captain Boneyh, not out of the pocket, attempted two end runs from a shift formation, first to the right and then to the left.

LINCOLN-HAMPTON GAME FOR THIS CITY "Lions" and Seasiders Will Face Each Other at Black Sox Baseball Park on November 3rd HAMPTON SQUAD BUSY Cardoza, Gunn and Jacobs, All Veterans, Are Back in Line-up By P. Bernard Young Hampton, Va., Oct. 11.—The first week's practice of the eager and enthusiastic Hampton gridiron candidates has proved to be a success in every way. The team are showing signs of improvement in every particular of the preliminary practice. The much-debated practices of "falling on the ball" and tackling the dummy" are giving place to actual tackling and running with the ball PROMISING CANDIDATES The recruits are showing real varsity form in all of the workouts. They promise to give the letter men a great fight. Among the candidates who are showing up well with their force, and Pindle, of Hamilton, for the pivot position; Julian C. Kennedy for end; Dyson, formerly of Detroit High; Lewis, formerly of Buffalo Tech.; Johns, of Kentucky State Normal; Fletcher, formerly of Kansas City High School, and The entire first squad, with one or two exceptions, is made up of letter men. The line has many of its positions filled by veterans and promises to be equally as impregnable as last year's line. The backfield will be built around such versatile and heady players as Cardozo, a ripping line-plunger, who made touchdowns against such players as Alfie Evans and Alfam. The elusive half, who won many points with his trained toot; B. Jacobs, the diminutive but great quarter, who successfully ran his team to many victories; King, a driving backfield, who is an exceptionally fast all-round player; Williams, a great broken-field runner, who was injured early last season but who promises to be counted among the best; and the all-around, a heady player. Besides these players there are a number of other good men. INTERESTING SCHEDULE The Hampton-Lincoln game which was to have been played either in Baltimore or in Lincoln has been definitely scheduled for Baltimore on November 3.

They took the train back without playing, the hottest bunch of athletes in America. Lexington, Va., is the same town which fired Preston Holt, T. Kelvin, professor of English on the schools because he protested the treatment of Negroes in the Southern race riots. It is noted as a hot bed of race prejudice. No sooner did the Southerners arrive here, that Coach Smith declared he understood that Charles West, colored star back and this year's penitent champion, would not appear in the line-up. He added that it was one of the traditions of his school that it should compete against colored players. Coach Heisman of the beat team declared that the protest against West was late. West had been on the team three years, he said and the Southern school knew it when the game was scheduled. The traditions of this school, he added, that it has never made distinctions from the game to har West from the game and Captain Wilderquist and the team backed him up. Over the long distance 'phon Dean Henry Campbell of Washington and Lee declared Southern traditions must be uphold. President Richard Nixon, Heisman and Capt.

He is officially called off, and the South centers departed for home. Storer Wins. 20-0 Storer College Harpers Ferry W.

The storer line was nearly seconds lighter than in Hagerstown and fell behind for the burden like brick by the uniring efforts of the two new coaches from Lincoln Messrs. Patrick and Newman. Storer bids fair to have a successful season as she has plenty of material and I being coached by Profs. Patrick and Newman, two former Lincoln stars. The line-up of the first team is as follows: L. E. Briscoe, L. T. Arrington, L. G. Reed, C. Toodles, R. G. Bourne, R. T. Howell, R. E. Brown, R. H. Mitchell, (Capt.) L. H. Smith, P. B. Bruner, Q. B. Fletcher. VA. NORMAL AT RALEIGH Raleigh, N. C.

WELDONS BEAT MARLBORA Ananapolis; Md., Oct. 11—The Weldon Giants closed the season last Sunday by defeating the strong Upper Marlboro Giants in a hard-fought game on the latter's ground, 7 to 8. The largest crowd ever before to have witnessed a game at that place was present and rooted enthusiastically for the home boys. When Reginald (Wrestling) Siki makes his appearance at the Gayet next Monday to wrestle Wladek Zbysko, world's Greeco-Roman champ and former catch-as-catch-can champ, Baltimore will get its first view of the man many sports believe will be the world's champion. Wrestling Siki stands 6 feet 2 inches tall, is 23 years old and weighs 217 pounds. He has a chest measurement of 44 inches and a waist of only 34 inches. Reggie hails from Abyssinia, and first learned he could wrestle after a hand-to-hand encounter with a panther. Now he has a leopard with him constantly as a pet. Reggie calls himself the Abyssinian Panther and boasts of draws with Stanilaus Zybysko, Gardini, and Manko. When he leaves the city he has engagements in the West with John Pesek, Allan Eustace, Jack Taylor and Jake Brissler. Maybe he will get a chance also at Ed. (Strangler) Lewis, whom he trailed all over Europe in the effort to get a match. Another wrestler and strong man is Edward Geerd, of Holland (The Black Dutchman), who breezed into the AFRO office the other day. He only weighs 152 pounds, but he juggles pianos as an exercise before breakfast, and lifts the rear end of Tom Smith's Packard with one hand. BORDENTOWN LOSES TO LINCOLN, 53-0 Captain Johnson Scores 30 Points; Quarterback Byrd Runs 65 Yards for Bordentown, N. J., Oct. 7—The Lincoln Lions made their first appearance of the season under the personal direction of Coach Young Saturday, when they departed the Bordentown team, 53-9. Last year the boys from Ironides gave the Lions a terrible scare and allowed them only six points. Before the game Coach Young called for a big score. It took Lincoln just three minutes to score the first touchdown, Capt. "whirlwind" Johnson carrying the ball. Capt. Johnson repeated a few minutes later and Lee kicked the ball. On a blocked kick, L. S. Johnson, playing right tackle, fell on the ball behind the goal line on the touchdown. Lee kicking the goal on the first lineup after the kick-off. Byrd made a correct imitation of of his Thanking run, by shipping through right tackle for a sixty five yard run and touchdown, with half of the Bordentown team after him. At this point Coach Young sent in the entire "B" team which stayed in during the second and third periods, scoring a touchdown in each period. "A" team went back for the fourth period and added two more touchdowns. The final score was 53-0, Capt. Johnson scoring thirty of these points. Morgan has returned and will be at his old place in a few days. Wilson at tackle is the "H" of the year and undoubtedly positions ex-captain Coston. Lancaster bids fair to be star and of the year. Goodman is beginning to show the stuff that made him the sensation in New England. Scott and Crudup are playing end positions creditably. Howard, Coltist, Stratton and Ward are working hard for places in the backfield. "Bat" Taylor (Shag No. 3) is the second choice for quarter but this position may allow him to man of team "Buster" Brown. Coach Young has already cut the squad to 43 men. MEYERS STORE CLOSES 6 P. M.

Line Going Over on Line Plunge In a hotly contested practice gridiron battle at Duval Hill Park last Friday afternoon the Baltimore Scholastics defeated Douglass High School eleven 6-0. The winning point was scored by Henson Scholastic end in the last two minutes of play when he receive a short pass from quarterback Jackson on douglass' 20-pound line and raced around the latters' right end to the one-yard line before brought to earth. At this point it was so dark that one spectator could hardly distinguish another at five yards distance. There was a goody-sized bunch of rooters for both teams, who had been rooting vigorously throughout the game. It was new the Scholastic's time for the greatest rooting of the afternoon and they crowded around the struggling elevers, each faction yelling like demons. Henson had retained the ball and a moment later took it over on a line-plunge. Douglass blocked his attempted drop-kick for goal. The Scholastic have recently organized and had not even had any practice, but they decided to play as a good workout for the Douglass eleven. Even their signals were made up on the field. Douglass displayed superiority in handling the ball more cleanly and as $^{20}$ result scored many more first downs than the Scholastics. The game was a see-saw affair up down the ball almost completely with another line and inch except what was hotly batted for. As a result there were few spectacular plays. The most sensational occurred near the end of the first quarter when fullback MacPayne received a short forward pass from Jackson on his own 20-yard line and ran forty yards before he was brought down.

This article was evidently given by some one interested in some Basketball venture who hopes to see Loendi broken up. Loendi will follow the same policy as in the past that is, we our ourselves each season Betts Young, Johnson Johnson. We fill in with two other players each year and go on just the same. Last season it happened to be Sessoms and Ticks. Season before last it was Fiall and Lee. This season we have Edward to fill Sessoms place and he should increase our all around strength. We will have Gayle the former Hampton star and Ticks if we want him, if not we will have either Fiall. Moton or Sloane will fill in with Young Betts. Enough to fill with Young Betts. Johnson, Gayle and myself to defeat any other colored club. Scrapy Brown is also trying out or our club. We are hooked to play Athens in Baltimore Easter Monday and will play in Cleveland once a week in addition to our Pittsburgh and other games.

Wilson of LaFollette, Tenn, brings some more direct evidence of the value of Pe-ru-na in the treatment of catarrhal diseases. It reads as follows: "While attending Billy Sunday's great revival at Knoxville, Tenn, last February I contracted a cold which weakened my entire system. I have taken only three bottles of Pe-ru-na and feel like a new man. It is a great system builder as well as a great catarrh remedy." To attempt to even estimate the thousands who, in the last half century, have come to know and appreciate the merits of Pe-ru-na would be worse than useless. The number is astonishing and increasing daily. Your nearest dealer has Pe-ru-na in both tablet and liquid form. Insist upon having Pe-ru-na, the original treatment for catarrh.

Green St. --- New York City, October 11—Harry Wills, celebrated as one of the few men ever to knock out Sam Lantangford and as the most persistent of Jack Dempsey's challengers, comes out of his cocoon at the Queensboro Stadium on Thursday night to fight Homer Smith, generously billed as the man who "showed" Firpo. We don't consider for a moment that Homer did anything of the kind. He run like a deer before Firpo and the world knows that a man who runs is the hardest man in the world to hit him. Homer ran rounds before Firpo. He打 the first man in the country to stick the distance with the Argentina. Just how Smith will fare with the hard hitting Negro remains to be seen. If Wills succeeds in stopping Smith in a few rounds, he will have at least a chance of saying if Firpo finished off a hard hit. Firpo couldn't stop. It will all depend on just how much Smith intends to fight against Wills. He can stick the distance if he wants to by employing the same tactics that he did against Firpo. In that case, Wills stock point to higher than it. And if it is going to be an interesting affair from every angle, one thing is certain. Wills friends are going to storm Simon Flabberty's place in droves. Smith arrived in town and is getting in shape for his bout. If he comes through all right, he will fight Tiny Herman, white, at Minneapolis on October 26th. Another bout, as a preliminary, will bring out Joe White, white, and Emmett Puryear.

GOVERNOR WALTON'S STAND clear cut as a streak of lightning and light of human beings to exist are the fight between Governor Walton of Oma and the Ku Klux Klan. There is the fact that here for once must be between mob law and constituted that fight is staged in a mid-Western States upon its outcome depend As clear cut as a streak of lightning and as vital as the right of human beings to exist are the issues involved in the fight between Governor Walton of the State of Oklahoma and the Ku Klux Klan. There can be no mistaking the fact that here for once must be a finished settlement between mob law and constituted authority. While that fight is staged in a mid-Western nook of these United States upon its outcome depends the very existence ultimately of this republic. If by any unfortunate turn of fate, whether by court decree or force, the Ku Klux mob triumphs, this country is in for some dark and bloody days. Some people are disposed to pooh pooh this invisible empire of lawless night riders. But with their flaming cross casting its shadow across the Stars and Stripes in every State from Maine to California and from the Great Lakes to the Gulf, they constitute the greatest menace America has faced since the Civil War. There may be those who deplore the fact that Governor Walton must resort to such drastic measures, but facing, as he is, a condition where cowardly assassins have honeycombed and taken control of offices, high and low, and where some State officials themselves constitute the mob, there was but one way to meet it, and that is with cold steel. Cut out this cancer, root and branch, for it is eating at the vitals of American life. All decent men and women of every creed and color will back up and say bravo to Governor Walton, for he stands at Armageddon, not only fighting for Oklahoma, but the triumph of law and order in every State in the Union. THE NATIONAL BAPTIST SPLIT Disseason in the ranks of the National Baptist Convention, Unincorporated, calls attention again to the lack of unity in this great church group. This body had its beginning in a split and the same disagreement over the "loaves and fishes" seems to be at the bottom of the present trouble. While the National Baptist bodies have done some notable things, including the establishment of a great Negro publishing plant and support of foreign mission, compared with their opportunities they have been colossal failures. This organization representing the largest group of Negro communicants in the world, has been unwieldy and used almost wholly to benefit its official staff and give ministers a yearly outing. There has been no effort at concrete organization so that any dictum sent down by the parent body would find response in the church units. Some idea of its impotency along vital lines may be realized when it is stated that despite the fact that an average of 5,000 delegates have attended the sessions each year at an estimated cost of $600,000 per year, the parent body has not been able to raise a net balance of $1,000 per year on its educational program of establishing a national educational institution. So long as the main object of its leaders is to have and to hold the machinery whereby the few thousand dollars in delegates fees are disbursed each year there will be simply fighting and wrangling. What this body needs is a group of unselfish leaders who would institute a constructive program of organization that would set an example of concrete Christianity and work for the unit bodies and churches which compose it. The EDITORIAL PAGE of THE AFRO-AMERICAN DAY BY DAY W.M. N. JONES Figures Don't Lie In a report submitted by Super- intendent West of the Baltimore City School Board last Friday the following illuminating figures were given: Total City School enrollment, 96,800. Total White enrollment, 80,899. Totals colored enrollment, 15, 901. Number white children in part time classes, 2,356. Number of colored children in part time classes, 4,588. We sincerely hope that even this unfortunate condition where 2,356 white children must be denied their rightful heritage of an education, will even be wiped out; but God have mercy on them and men who control the system that can look at these figures and then look each other in the face without wincing in shame. Is this the measure to which Anglo Saxon honesty and fair play as been perverted? A young white woman, Miss Bertha McMagnus, wishing to rid herself of her seven months old baby left it at the home of a colored woman at 212 S. Bethel street and did not return for it. Many white women on campus, despite a heart-sickening shiver at the thought of what might have happened to this innocent child. They know that this thing has happened over and over and that many times the colored parents DID NOT REPORT THE MATTER TO AYEN and more we Aryen blood flow flowing across the color line. In this and other ways, no one ought creditable to the 100 per centers, enough white blood has flown into the colored race to completely alter the pigmentation of the group. What tragedies and sorrows that age wraps in some of the stories where children of the same parent must hate and despise each other, and where human consciences must be so blurred and perverted that men can crush with the heel of unjust oppression those in whose veins often flow the blood of kinship. We are glad that fate did not possess the little bite to such a child, it deserve any less as such, BUT BECAUSE NO CHILD DESERVES IT. At Last, Dr. Carver News dispatches state that a group of colored business men will form a company for the exploitation of the wonderful discoveries made by Dr. Gavarer of Tuskegee Institute. Is it not a wonder that colored business men in several sections of the country have not taken this initiative before this? Officer is a member of our group who has brought into existence more than two dozen products that can be made from the potato and peanut, commodities produced and used in large quantities, and our industrial and business courses have not yet turned out men to put it into practical use. Most of the inventions made by colored men have been exploited by whites but it will be a shame if the business men of the race do not see it to that the valuable discoveries can be created wealth and give employment young men and women of the race. There is the potential possibilities in one of his breakfast foods alone to make several colored millionaires. Abyssinian Abyssinia, African outpost of civilization who dates her culture back to king Solomon send word across the waters that she has outlawed slavery. It will be news to many colored American to learn that Abyssinia ever permitted slaves. But Abyssinia wanted to be a free nation on the League of Nations being the highest achievement of human advancement, of course could not condone human slavery. Thus humanity advances. But what does Abyssinia hope to gain as a member of the League? Perhaps she sees what American Negroes seem to fail to see in the undeveloped wealth of this great continent and being on the ground she probably sees that the greedy exploitation of its resources. How many of us are interested in the Pan-African movement or Liberia? Representative Hill's Challenge Representative John Phillip Hill of the Seventh District has allowed a quantity of grape juice to ferment with the knowledge of the prohibition authorities in order to have a phase of the law defined. The most harmful activity of the prohibition law, especially that relating to light wines, is the fact that it has created a large number of lawbreakers. If the people who make wine in their homes were brought into court there would probably a national holiday so far as other activities are concerned, spreading other things, is the outstanding problem confronting this country today. It may have been a bad thing for lawmakers to take such a long prohibition step at once. Certainly it should have been known that what Christianity and the church has failed to do in a century could not be accomplished by a godless cannot be legislated into people over night. DR.

Pushed by members of the School Board, Superintendent West made public Friday figures showing overcrowded conditions in colored schools. He read figures showing that there are some 80,890 children in white schools and 15,901 children in colored schools. Overcrowded conditions made it necessary to put 2,356 white children and 4,588 colored children in part-time classes. In other words, altho there are five times as many white school children as colored in Baltimore, overcrowding is twice as great in the colored schools. Dr. Strayer in making a survey of the city schools two years ago, recommended a new elementary school to relieve overcrowded conditions. Disregarding this recommendation the School Board has authorized a dozen other white schools, and is "still looking for a site" for a new colored school. OLD TIMER SEES FRANK KELLY "Boss" Promises To Do Something If Democrats Are Elected In November The Reporter spied Old Timer at the corner of Arlington avenue and Saratoga street Wednesday morn- waiting for John S. (Frank) Kelly to leave for his daily automobile ride. "What are you doing out so early?" the reporter asked. J. Steward Davis came on the scene before he answered the question and Mr. Kelly came the question and Mr. Kelly came out of his house. Old Timer hobbled over to the genial Democratic chieftain and they greeted each other as old friends. "Now boss" began O. T.

(For The Associated Negro Press) 49.—Recall an incident which occurred at the battle of Monterey. A Negro saved the life of General Zachary Taylor at the battle of Monterey. A Mexican was aiming a deadly blow at the General, when the Negro sprang between them, slew the Mexican and received a deep wound from a lance. The Negro was a slave at the time, but was afterwards emancipated by President Taylor. 50.—Did Negroes ever own and operate a carriage? On May 24 1923, the first and only Negro owned and operated Carnival opened at Anacostia, Md., the birthplace of the Illustrius Freed, Douglass. The Carnival composed of the Jones-Jenkins Minstrels, a dog and nony show, a merry-go-goer, a driver, a driver freaks, and lunch stands, with eight concession stands and featuring Albert Gaines, acrobat, is owned by S. H. Dudley, President and General Manager; J. Jones, Secretary-Treasurer; James, General Superendent; and W. J. Brown, General Agent, of whom are shown or long experience. 61—Who was Mandumbi? A tablet has been put up in the Princess Beatrix Hospital to help to commemorate the African chief, Mandumbi whose self-sacrifice was the means of the discovery of the cause of the scourge of sleeping sickness. Mandumbi was doomed to die in the scourge submitted to experiments which enabled Dr. Arthur Fagan to trace the cause of the disease. Dr. Fagan, as the tablet records, examined the blood of the patient. The tablet has been placed over the bed in which the chief made his Heroic sacrifice. NEXT WEEK'S WHATNOTS 52. Who was Charles E.

Hatchett, 1817 editions. Amy KELLY MILLLER SAYS College Fraternities Fundamental Thinking The United States is the one conspicuous nation of the globe which has experienced no fundamental change of mind and of heart as result of the World War. In fact, this titanic struggle rather stopped than advanced consideration of foundation principles. Theodore Roosevelt delayed if he did not permanently frustrate an industrial revolution that was unavoidable all but irresistible force. He was the Henry Clay of his day and generation. The war turned our thought in another direction and diverted them from our own domestic turmil and unrest. But every deep-thoughted mind that handles public questions forges that the end is not yet. Woodrow Wilson, who has the deepest intellect of any of our present political thinkers, has sounded a caution warning in a recent article in the Atlantic Monthly. The vain repetition of ancient platitudes will not settle modern ills. New occasions teach new duties. The Optimistic Negro Mind The Negro faces the future with his eyes shut. He is incarably optimistic. He thinks in derivative terms, rarely ever in fundamentals. He learns little from experience. He is poor at use of buffers him not. He is still looking to political action for racial salvation. He still fondly dreams that the triumph of the Republican party will confer political and civil equality, notwithstanding his repeated experience of the Grand Old Party finds him further and further removed from fulfilment of his hopes. Loud denunciation of existing evil waa set one time relied upon for efficacious remedy. Some have gained reputation for courage by shaking the finger of defiance Cohen and making faces at conditions But the facts remain and the conditions persist. A common soild soon becomes a common nuisance. To violently denounce the Republican party and the white race and the Christian church available male sex, the telltale upon the efficacy of abuse and condemnation of the enemy implies an optimism which is hard to analyse. The newer type of Negro radical by some vain hope hooks for a reconstructed order in which the black man will be permitted to participate on equal items with the rest. The new order, if such a shade he will be permitted to participate on equal items with the rest. The new order, if such a shade he will be permitted to participate on equal items with the rest. There is no assurance that it would be any more kindly disposed to the racial element now in despite. Thus we sound bewildered amidst complexities of conditions without insight or vision, and that the positive optimism as innocent and naive as that of the boy who stood on the burning deck. The Play of Cosmic Forces The political, economic, religious an dsocial forces of the world are in process of readjustment. The quickening of race consciousness is perhaps the most significant fact which conditions the Negro in the European country. If we cannot modify this controlling force by which our lot is conditioned, we can at least try to understand it and adjust our attitude to a force which we may not alter. The first and foremost fact to which the Negro should give deep thought and fundamental consideration is city segregation, segregation a state of mind on part of the whole race. It is a question of psychology. It is deeper than the law which can only reach and deal with its superficial phases. The Suprema Court, at our behest, nullified the city ordinances of segregation; but this merely modified the form but did not affect the magnitude of the fact. It operates as effectively without the law as with it. The Negro rights with what others wives he has, and he does well thus to fight; the white man is up against the bulk of race prejudice against which his weapons are nugatory and harmless. The residential segregation of the race in our large cities is the one outstanding fact. If you seek for testimony, look around. In Washington, Baltimore, Philadelphia, Ohio, and New Jersey, segregation is being accomplished as fast as time can move. There is not a city in the United States, North or South, where the race is not being penned up to itself. In Harlem the bounds of racial habitation are as sharply marked as the boundaries of the race are pushing from the South to the North are being grown into these racial knots and ganglia. They leave the South where they have closer intimacy and contact with the whites than they find in the Negro sections of the crowded Northern cen- A Half Century Vista Let the Negroes in these great cities look forward for fifty years. Let them study with all possible care for their future. They will be million in their group in 1973. At that time New York will probably contain a million Negroes, located in solid black settlements. What will be done to deal with the moral life of this century after the lapse of a half century? What about the corresponding situation in Washington and Baltimore and Chicago? Will racial relations be kindly and congenial or hostile and reprisal? The center of gravity will then have shifted from the South to the North. Can the race maintain itself in open competition with the efficient standards of the North and the rigors of climate under the exactions of race prejudice and restrictions? Is there sufficient power of self-sustenance in the race to meet the exactions of the situation to which it is hurriedly heading. The sociological aspects of the race problem demand attention. Our little political programs as to who will be the next President or what party shall triumph in the next election have little or no serious meaning to the Negro race. It can now be predicted with certainty that the next President will be white. The prospect lot will more on just the same regardless of that political consumption. I have selected segregation as but a sample of the far-reaching sociological elements of the race problem. I fear that I have allowed myself to be betrayed into too extensive discussion of a single feature in proportion to allowed limits of space. But the far-reaching seriousness of the matter is the only excuse I have to offer. College Fraternities Mr. Norman McGhee, National Secretary of the Alpha Phi Fraternity, has just released to the press interesting and valuable information concerning the origin and development of Negro fraternities. He informs us that there are one hundred and fifty different chapels with combined membership of ten thousand. Mr. McGhee would seem to imply that there are at least twenty-five thousand Negro collegians in the United States since scarcely more than two-fifths of the collegians are members of such fraternities. These figures are calculated to call out serious thinking. A body of ten thousand Negro collegians and women are thrown upon the country as centers of light and leading ought to furnish guiding light for the whole race. The little leaven should leave the whole bump. It is but fair to say that these college men are not functioning as it was hoped they would in the general sense be the entire life. The entire burden of ten million souls and bodies will soon fall upon their shoulders. The older generation must shortly lay down the burden in course of nature, they may decrease. There is a lamentable lack of central inspiration. They fall to rally around some controlling idea. Their collegiate training merely fits the individual for the efficient performance of the imposed We sadly await the manifestation of courage, initiative, energy and enterprise on part of the young collegian. They are too deferential, timid and constrained. They must develop the fire and force and fearlessness to organize the mass of life of the race and give it efficient progress. The racial estates are to be managed. The church calls with Macedonian earnestness for the college-bred Negro to come over and help us. The schools are crying for educational leadership. Business enterprises must be developed. The people flounder for want of right political leadership. Social reclamation makes a crying face. There is no more group of men on earth than men in the world upon whose shoulders devolve heavier responsibilities. But I fear that there is no similar group that hears its responsibility so lightly. These are not words of criticism, but of despair. I have to be careful not to leave him behead. I have had much to do with the production of the young collegian. I therefore assume the right to apply the spur to their flashing powers. I urge them to earnars urgency, and assume the responsibility in race leadership which their culture calls for and which the situation demands.
