STUDENT IN LOVE TANGLE 32nd YEAR Number 28 Entered in the Postoffice at Baltimore, Matter under Act of March FOUR RESCUED THANK BLACK COAST GUARD Only Colored Coast Guard Unit In Service Is Praised by Fish- RISKED LIFE FOR OTHERS Guardsmen Launched Lifeboat in 60-Mile-an-Hour Gale to Effect Rescue Raleigh, N. C., March 26. —How four men were saved from certain death in the raging waters of Pamlico Sound was told today by Captain L. Bannister Midgett, white, of Manteo, one of the survivors, this week. The story has especial significance because, Captain Midgett is a coast guard veteran of 40 years service, and because he was saved by Captain Ed. Pruden and six colored men from the Penn Island station, the only all-colored coast guard unit in the United States. Midgett and his nephew had gone fishing in a seven-horsepower boat when caught by the storm and a 60-mile-an-hour gale. He declared it to be the worst in his 70 years of sea faring, and told them waves 8 feet strong enough to crest bore down on their little boat and threatened every minute to swamp it. Midget was asleep in the cabin when the storm struck and thrown out of his bank three times before he realized how serious the storm was. Eventually, the motor boar was able to reach Peam Creek within a mile of the Coast Guard Station and were sighted by the colored life savers. Life Bout Capsizes Captain Ed. Pruden and six men set out to our assistance in a self-built centerboard surf-boat with a mast and gaff sail. The wind was howling at such a pitch that we could hardly hear our own voices. The boat with sail set and men made a breakway, and at times lost the distance it had gained. We were only about a mile from the station, and I watched them making slow progress. When they had gone about a half mile, the boat suddenly disappeared behind the seas, and we saw the jaws of the bowward Pruden was on the jaws, and had his six men on the windward when the boat capsized. Soaked to the skin stuff with cold and chilly as they must have been, those men with their lives at stake, managed to catch the right lines, threw the boat back on its bottom, and made away on another tack. "Late in the afternoon, Captain Pruden reached us, and as he reached us, asked how his barometer stood. He said 28.60, and the tide was rising all the while. Goes Back After Others After the first two white men were saved Captain Pruden went back after the other two in a steam vessel secured from the Oregano Captain Pruden enlisted in the Coast Guard nine years ago. He made his way up rapidly in the station, and three years ago was only commissioned, but has been supplied with substitutes, perhaps because it is the only Negro station in America. Pruden himself, although with induction, has more received his warmer, and more boat-swain, having been overlooked by the department to date. His men are: B. Wesley, six years; M. M. Berry, five years; Nohp N. Meekins, five years; Lonnie C. Gray, five years; Clarence Pigford, temporary surfman; and William Simmons and John Pigford, substitutes.

Decision On Garvey Appeal April 25th Sentiment in New York is That Convicted U. N. I. A. Head Will Serve Term In Leavenworth And Then Be Deported As Undesirable Alien. Shadowed By U. S. Agents New York (Special), March 27.—Decision in the appeal of Marcus Garvey is expected from the U. S. Court of Appellies here April 25th. Marcus Garvey, head of the U. N. I. A, and the Black Star Steamship Line, was convicted last year of using the mills to defraud purchase companies, and serve five years in Leavenworth prison. He was allowed to select Leavenworth, a military prison, in preference to Atlanta, because he feared Southern chain gangs. Officials in downtown New York believe that the higher court will turn down the appeal and Garvey will be compelled to serve his sentence. If this happens, following the usual procedure, at its expiration Garvey, who is a British subject, will be deported, who formerly went around with a bodyguard, now moves around New York unattended. But his every move is shadowed by agents of the Department of Justice. The Department is said to be investigating the report that he has large sums deposited in banks in Canada and England. The Black Star Line is a defunct concern with stockholders owning what is said to be a million dollars in worthless stock. The Negro Factory Corporations is also said to be defunct, and the Black Star Line is defunct in the courts against these two concerns, including one of $40,000 against the Black Star Line for damages incurred when one of the ships carried a cargo of rum to the West Indies from New York. Although defunct, the Black Star Line still has $10,000 on deposit with the U. S. Shipping Board for the purchase of a new vessel. Last week, Mr. Garvey launched what was said to be a new ship. No stock is to be sold, but $500,000 is to be raised to purchase ships and start sailings by September. Billboards all over the city announced the meeting, which was attended by 10,000 persons. Last week's AFRO-AMERICAN carried a despatche from Liberia, quoting President King as refusing to permit Mr. Garvey from landing 3,000 emigrants there. Congress Gets Letters Attacking Dr. Durkee BLIND MAN IS TRAFFIC COP Pine Bluff, Ark., Mar. 28.—W. G. Campbell, who has been blind for a number of years, a familiar character in this city and knows the streets of Pine Bluff much better than most of the old residents who have their eyesight, purchased a police officer's traffic whistle, and now when he wishes to cross a street on which he stands a shrill blast, steps boldly from the curb, holds up one hand majestically in the approved "coop" fashion and safely strides across the street. Campbell told officials that he had been worrying for some time about how to insure his safety since the ever increasing auto traffic has created a serious obstacle and lately has made his driving more dangerous. Finally it occurred to Campbell that a police whistle would be just the thing he needed, and he accordingly went to city officials with his plan. New York, Mar. 28—Rothchild Francis, chairman of the Virgin Island Committee, 411 Fifth avenue, here, has started a drive for $1,000 to wage a publicity campaign for full citizenship of the Virgin Islanders.

M., Mar. 26.—Acceptance of Franklin Peters as an instructor in English at Howard University at $1,500 a year, even the his resignation from A. & T. College at Greensboro, N. C., had not been accepted, has created a public sensation. President James B. Dudley, of A. & T. College, has flooded Congressmen, Senators and other leading men here with letters declaring that Dr. Durkee's action stamps Howard as a menace to the smaller colleges. Dr. Durkee told the AFO today that his action in accepting Peters was approved by a faculty committee composed of Professor D. Turner and Montgomery Gregory, and also the finance committee of the Board of Trustees. Dr. Durkee was advised not to reply to the last letter of President Dudley because of the language it contained. "I acted in good faith," Correspondence of Pres. Dudley shows that he was willing to release Prof. Peters, who is a recent graduate of the University of Michigan, as soon as he could find some time waiting for this, Prof. Peters sent in his resignation, giving eight days notice, and left. SOUTH'S ROADS WANT PRE-WAR WAGES SOUTH'S ROADS WANT PRE-WAR WAGES Chirugo, Mar. 38—Two decisions of the U. S. Railroad Labor Board halted this week, steps taken by railroads in the South to reduce wages and rank of race employees. Five porters in the employee of the American Railway Express Company, at Birmingham, Ala., dismissed because of their refusal to accept and sign for wages to be received, and were ordered reinstated with pay for time lost. The decision also affects other porters in Birmingham, Ala., who were not dismissed because they accepted the lower pay. Colored trainmen on the St. Louis and San Francisco railroad given the rank of brakemen during the war, were recently reduced to the rank of porter and a salary of $130 per month. The number of 145 who are required to do such work as opening and closing switches, coupling and uncoupling cars, giving signals, etc., in connection with train movement, will have their cases investigated by the Railway Labor Board to determine whether they are brakemen or porters and to what rank and pay they are en- Y Changes Policy Philadelphia, Mar. 28. — Central Branch of the Y.

Stanley Durkee denied emphatically today that he had made an address to alumni of Howard in the North Carolina Mutual Building in Durham last week, in which he said "Dean George William Cook, of the School of Commerce and Finance," is largely to blame for failure of the school to co-operate with colored business." Dean Cook does co-operate in every way with colored business, as far as I know, President Durkee said. "My remarks at Durham dealt only with the present limitations of the school and my struggle to build it up to a leading school in the country. I told those present of recent meetings with the faculty and dean of the school and some plans I had to speed up our development." The General Baptist Convention of the District of Columbia has selected a site in Arlington County, of the earliest settlement institution, to be known as The Washington Baptist Seminary. Plans are being prepared for the first building, which will cost approximately $100,000. LA. PHYSICIAN GONE; HAT AND CAR LEFT Shreveport, La., Mar. 25.—Dr. W. M.

COLLAPSES ON THE WITNESS STAND William Sampson Testifies for Two Hours of Love Tangles of Wife and Student TELLS OF SLAYING HER Story Told Amid Tears William Sampson, who shot to death his pretty young wife at the home of her sister on Dallas street, was found guilty of second degree murder in Part 1 of the Criminal Court Thursday.

According to register at Morgan College, Edward Dorsey is not now a student of the college, having left there more than a year ago. Describes Shooting According to the testimony of Mrs. Moore, her sister had just begun proceedings for a divorce and had come to live with her when Sampson came to the house on the morning of the tragedy. She left them talking in the dining room and had gone to the kitchen when two shots rang out. She reached the room in time only to see him leaving and to catch her dying sister in her arms. Names Student in Tangle Under cross examination she admitted that the matrimonial sea of the pair had been rough and stormy and that Sampson had become insanely jealous. She also admitted that she had been present on one occasion when Sampson followed his wife to Orange N. L., and found them there in company with Edward Dorsey, then a student at Morgan College now at the Teachers' Training School. On this occasion she and her sister had left the city to visit friends in Philadelphia, but he sent them to Orange.

Florence Mills' new revue will be called "Chocolate Drops." The show will go into the Woods' Adelphia early in the summer, it is reported. "Runnin' Wild" in its 21st week at the Colonial Theatre, New York, grossed $10,000. Advice from Raleigh, North Carolina states that there is but one theatre in the city. The colored people were admitted, but had to enter the theatre through an alley. They then this house, have leased the City. Auditorium for the presentation of their theatricals. The Universal Service Bureau of this city, Miss Edna Browne, directress, has entered the concert field. Several concert artists are on the list of the bureau. The organization should do much in helping perfect a chain of chattains, for the general entertainment and instruction of the folks. The efficient crew of the Longhous Theatre is: Charles Milech, electrician; Vincent Smith, gymnast; Juno, Wells, prope; James Rogers, stage manager; Mr. H. L. Morris is the engineer in charge of the stage; and Simon Simmons this efficient staff has grown to be second to none in the city.

The reputation of one of England's oldest and most respected families was at stake—the honor of a man who had made a great name for himself and then dissipated his prestige. This is the situation that face John Cocker in the climax of "The Macdonald" which marks one of the most unusual and gripping story that has ever been translated to the screen with City Lites post in the star. In juxtaposition to the strong physical ressemblance of two men, resemblance so strong that the wif of one is unable to tell them apart even after clear sensory is an stronger resemblance to the man in theatricals. One man has allowed pride in his skill to fill the love of and everything beautiful. The retains a yearning for the at the piano, a craving for indulgence, a longing for a better life, and a longer for better family.

We gleaned several valuable bits of information about the old-timers from the conversation, and a scrap book which he keeps. Contrary to the oft heard assertion that the Pekin Chicago Angels in Newport, Ky. Xegros in this country, is the statement that a colored house was established in Newport, Rhode Island, by a colored man named James, before the Chicago housewas thought of. We can converse with out comment, other than to say that Billy Ritchie should know, for he was long a member of the pioneers. MORRIS JOHNSON 2018 Division St. The RI e REG JAZZ LAST WEEK later Co.

To one and all I explain that I use Golden Brown preparations and use them according to directions. I have never wanted to be white, nor do any of you. But, like you, I want the clear, soft, bright skin of the race, free from blotches, pimples or eruptions. I want and have beautiful hair, which I can dress in any style. My advice to you, men and women of the race, is to use Golden Brown Beauty Preparations which your nearest druggist has or will get for you. GOLDEN BROWN BEAUTY PREPARATIONS are the result of my life-long work to find a treatment that would really clear the skin and give you that fresh, smooth and bright complexion that is our rightful heritage. We have no desire to be white, but we owe it to ourselves to look our best always, and this is enough. Make thick lather of Golden Brown Beauty Soap and rub well into the face and neck. Then take a hot cloth and steam the face for a minute or two. Then dry and gently rub a small amount of Golden Brown Beauty Ointment well into the skin, and leave on over night. In the morning, make a thick, fluffy lather of Golden Brown Soap and wash the face, neck and hair. Then dry face, neck and hair with a towel and put a small quantity of Golden Brown Hair Dressing in palm of hand and slick over hair. Then arrange hair any way you want, it will be soft and pliable. Finish up by dabbing a little Golden Brown Rouge on each cheek and put on a light layer of Golden Brown Face Powder. You won't even recognize yourself. Remember, we want to be light, bright and attractive. Don't be fooled any longer—don't accept any substitutes for Golden Brown, there are none. Public School Garnet School No. 103 Harry T.

It is made of expensive and rare materials known only to me. It is perfumed with the Flowers of Liberia. GOLDEN BROWN BEAUTY SOAP is made by a secret process from coconut oils and other vegetable ingredients and perfumed with pure oil of Spanish almonds. It will free the scalp from foreign matter. You should shampoo your hair at least twice a week with it. It will clear the skin of all dirt and grime and should be used according to my directions in washing the face each night before using the GOLDEN BROWN BEAUTY OINTMENT, which is the only Ointment that will clear the skin overnight, remove all pimples, rash, tetter, and make the skin clear and fresh and smooth as a baby's. GOLDEN BROWN FACE POWDER is an exquisite preparation that is sifted 25 times through silk cloth and contains a cold cream base that makes it adhere to the skin and does not rub off. It furnishes a protection to the delicate skin underneath and brings the bloom of beauty to your cheeks. It is dainty and perfumed with the expensive Flowers of Liberia—the finest Face Powder in the world. GOLDEN BROWN ROUGE is made in all fashionable shades from the formula of a Paris chemist (one of our Race), and it is a necessary requisite to milady's toilet. It is put up in a dainty gold lacquered box, with crystal mirror and lamb's-down puff. It should be used before applying the Golden Brown Face Powder and will bring a rosy tint to pale, sallow complexions. Golden Brown Preparations are the most exquisite Toilet Preparations ever offered the Race and are worth what you pay for them. DON'T TAKE ANY SUBSTITUTE.

Call VErnon 6016 REGENT Across the Rio Grande The speed that distinguished the former vehicles of the Miller-Slater Company was noticeably lacking in "Across the Rio Grande," the piece chosen for this week. One does not expect great continuity of plot in modern day musical comedy, though a slight thread is used to connect the units奏posing the whole. The entertainment value lies in the speed of the episodes; is the snappiness of the dances, tunefulness of the song numbers, and the quality of the comedy. None of these essentials stood on Monday afternoon, hence the customers were restless, and some of them "walked." The introduction of a razor in the act of one of the eats, not only fails to please the audience, but please many in the audience. The here draw the line at this "prehistoric griff." In all fairness, allowance must be duly made for the length of the picture that preceded the show. "Name the Man" is a big picture, and makes it as difficult to follow with vaudeville as it does for a small-time act going on after a big-time turn. Besides, those who came in to see the picture, alone, were not in a receptive frame of mind for the vaudeville. A Spanish Dance by Miss Violet Williams and Marcus Slater went over nicely and was recalled again and again. After nine weeks under handicap it is small wonder that this excellent group of players are experiencing a slight loss of prestige. Messers Miller and Slater cannot make bricks without straw, any more than could the Egyptians of old, and that is why they have been expected to do it. They are progressing and a longer period for rehearsals than has been possible, the company will come back to its former degree of excellence. The personnel of the company, principals and choristers, are a talented, conscientious group, we join with the customers in wishing them a speedy recovery. LINCOLN Tucker and Harris An unfailing sign of the nearness of Spring was the small number of customers at this house Monday evening. However, those who came were evidently pleased with the efforts of the Tucker and Harris Company. The Tucker and Ann Ammann began their careers in this city, and have established a reputation throughout the country of which the home folks should be proud. We have yet to get to Tucker's peer in the delivery of a song, he sold one Monday evening, and after the delivery of five extra verses, he met Mrs. Ammann, Mrs. Gregory lives to her established reputation as one of the best feeders in vaudeville, she also brought 'em a mean freck. Harris and Harris are two clever performers, the made end is a promising comic, and the wife a keen soubette. Hastus Brown, a protege of King 'Kingst Brown, the chameau, is a 'hoofer' who man in time equiv the skill displayed by his instructor. The company is one of the most pleasing seen here this season from the standpoint of showmanship. Evidently business has been good for they have the best wardrobe of any "Tab" coming to these parts.

The park originally opened by an all-race corporation fell upon the unfortunate days that followed the war, and William D. Seamon had extensive concession interests in the possession of the control interests of the officer, J. E. Robinson, B. H. White and a number of other colored stockholders retained their holdings. Mr. Seamon assumed the presidency and Earl Seamon is the secretary-treasurer. Rufus Byars, who for more than 18 years has been identified with the business of phases of amusement enterprises was named general manager and publicity director with offices at 1511 Pennsylvania avenue. Last season the park did a gross business of more than $80,000; and if the improvements made on the mies that Byars has already made count for anything, the coming season will make those figures look puny. He announces that vaudeville will be a feature this year, and that a new midway that includes 18 new structures is about ready for occupancy; that a new arched gateway has been erected the hardwood electrically lighted, has been built; and the roadway for auto traffic has been resurfaced. The whole project is in such state that evening clothes and satin pumps may be worn to the park with no fear of injury to the delicate fabrics. Mr. Byars who has been touring with the "Gaz" company this winter is handling the press work, will close and resume his park duties at the close of the present month. The park will open about May 1.

Ah, here is a comedy with music that has all of the elements that satisfy the varying tastes of the customers. Quartette singing, pretty dancing choristers, clever principals and two of the funniest comics that ever drew a laugh. That, ladies and gentlemen, is "Steppin' Out." Susie Sutton, out. Finished actress, shades the female leads with the dainty Julia Moody, and the result is art perfectly played. Then there is Rogers and Rogers, a slip on girl, and a big, graceful fellow, who do a dancing act that would look good on "anybody's" bill. Alice Gorgas, looking better, and hoofing more agilely than ever, knocked 'em for a row of empty chairs whenever she came on. Clifford Ross, a clever comic with a voice, could have had the keys to the city, when he rendered the poker game pantomime. Ernest Whitman, still possessing his looks, and wonderful voice, is as popular as ever. The whole piece is a "riot" but everyone agrees that Billy Higgins is the sensation of the aggregation. He gave the customers fits and convulsions whenever he appeared in a situation. This Higgins boy is about the funniest thing under cork today. "Steppin' Out" is a money's worth attraction.

The Defense League will stage a meeting at Bethel Church next Tuesday night. Dr. H. S. McCarthy the president, will preside. The big mass meeting of the Parent-Teachers' Federation will be held at the same church Tuesday night, April 8th. Resolutions of a similar nature will also be passed by the big opening set for April 6th. Street Church will host superspices of the A. A. C. P., and the college fraternities and sororites. James Weldon Johnson and Kelly Miller will be the speakers. School 112 Filled - Parents and teachers filled the auditorium of School 112 Tuesday night at a preliminary meeting of the Federation, when resolutions were passed urging the school board to rescind its school policy. Wheatley, who presided, deplored the fact that action was taken without consulting colored people, and that no member of the race was present at the board's executive session. Mrs. Harry Brown, explained what problem number 0 is. The Vm. Bauernschmidt, white secretary of the Public School Association, pledged the aid of that body in the fight to have the Board reconsider its action and build the new school. She added that the members of the board promised her new colored school would be built. Mrs. Sara Permissidis, president of the Cooperative Civile League, dedicated the School Board had made a definite promise to erect the school during the loan campaign and that its present action was unethical. Secretary S. S. Booker, of Y. M. C. A. declared that the new building was needed for a trade and vocational school. Mrs. Vashti Murphy read from the Strayer Survey to prove that the Western High School building which was designated for the new building is unfit for a modern elementary-school. "The best is none too good for our children," she said. "We are forced to live in second hand houses, but as taxpayers it is not fair to give us second hand schools." Miss Elsie Mountain, of the Sharp Street Community House, dedicated the Biddle street schools are mansiliary, draughty, poorly lighted and responsible for sickness of teachers and pupils. No Colored School System Dr. George F. Bragg, of St. James Church, urged protest on the ground that a colored school system is not provided for in the city charter and colored people have the right to get new buildings as well as the other race. Dr. Bragg and Jay Albert, Green pastor at St. James, exception to Mrs. Bauernschmidt's views that the school board should not have a colored member. Both deplored the fact that information must come from devious sources as to how the schools are to be managed and that the race has no representative. Supervisor Frank Russell urged that the body make use of its rights of free speech and the security of its members by dignified means against whatever to them seems unjust. He declared his only knowledge of the Boards' action came from newspapers. Board Esgd Children Rev, John T. Colbert, of Grace Presbyterian Church, declared that the Board had used the children to secure the passage of the loans thru propaganda, and were now going back on specific promises. Altho the $21,000,000 loan is exhausted, he said, only one building for colored people is under construction and none is finished. Saving resolutions to be sent by delegations to the Mayor, the School Board and the Public Improvement Commission were adopted. Post Asks West's Dismissal Attention was called to the Post campaign to have Superintendent West dismissed for his action in swaying the School Board to vote against the colored school proposition, and having all school board meetings open to the public. Attention was also directed to the first Jackson will enter the fight for the new school and that he will be supported by Howard Bryant and the members of the Public Improvement Commission.

OUR SPRING SALE BEGINS SATURDAY, MARCH 29th JULIA MOODY IS THE CITY'S OWN Petite Actress Now at Gayety, Recalls School Days Here SPORTS HER NOBBY "I Have Been Too Busy To Get Married," She Tells Afro Reporter About 25 years ago, at the old Colorado Grammar school on Saratoga street, a teacher calling the roll said, "Julia Moody," and a pretty little girl answered, "present." The child was popular with her classmates, and was participant in all the school entertainments. Even then the prediction was made that she would go upon the stage. Little Julia completed the eighth grade, and duly received her certificate stating that she had satisfactorily completed the course. Most of her schoolmates elected to go to high school, but Julia had the lights of the bedroom dimmed, left the little home at 612 Taza street, and went to Philadelphia. She applied for a position with the "Smart Set" Company, was accepted as a chorister, and as she was pretty, graceful, and the possessor of a rich singing voice, it was not long before she was given a minor principal role, and amation were received by the Whitney brothers her employers. So after a course of their capable tutoring she was advanced to a principal position in their company. Returning to Baltimore a leading woman, she was the rage of the city at the time of "Da Do Strain," written by Edgar Dawell, a Baltimoreian. This number was written within a stone throw of Miss Moody's home, yet she and the writer never saw one another until she was given his number of girls, many of whom were now tendered the young lady to join various companies, but she choose the "Follow Me" Company, which is presenting "Steppin Out" at the Gayety this week. She is still "Little" Julia in statue, but a great big Julia as an actress. Miss Moody is so intent on reaching the pinnacle in her profession that she hasn't married. She is a lover of the great out-doors and an ardent devotee of all sports. Divorces Instituted Mrs. Jessie McCants vs. Isaiah McCants. Edward M. Gilbert vs. Mrs. Lena Gilbert.

The Judiciary Committee of the State Legislature of which Mr. Daniel C.

As to the men who were so hidebound, mediocre and devoid of human sympathies to dash this insult into the faces of 110,000 men and women giving their best toil to the city's progress, we have nothing to say, except that their future political aspirations will be watched. But to Mr. Joseph's Judiciary Committee which has twice unanimously killed measures of this kind, we express our heartfelt thanks. MARCUS GARVEY AGAIN for nerve and affront, Mr. Marcus Garvey orize.

In the face of one of the most colossal failures and gigantic frauds ever perpetrated against an unsuspecting people and standing in the very shadow of the penitentiary, he starts another movement to garner in hard earned money of that remnant of his organization who still have more loyalty than common judgment. Even if Mr. Garvey committed no intentional fraud, and a court of law has decided that he did, his financial incompetence and utter disregard for responsibility in handling other people's money, would serve to make any decent man keep forever under cover. There are those who have willingly thrown the cloak of mercy around this self-appointed "monarch"; there are those who accord him ability as a propagandist and organizer, but patience ends when this same man who has squandered millions of the people's money in his badly managed projects, to say the least, comes forward with plans to raise more. But if now there are still people fool enough to let Garvey waste their money, let them have their way. Go to it, Mr. Garvey. THE M·E. CONFERENCE Here were some features about the annual Washington Conference, just closing its s. M. E. Church, that will probably be on throughout the country. In general the encouraging reports, especially financial, is spent for ministerial support alone, got $87,643 for the conference year and 606,455 in church property. I according to this same report the toph membership was 299, with no increase memberships and an increase of around a League Department. It will be in law the churchmen of the denominative features and whether they feel that they secure results for so large an outlay. Either feature worth thinking about is the colored wing of this great Church with racial and civic problems in the s. s. of their church. There is an unmissed union of interests. As Bishop McDoing session, this conference saw for the history of the denomination a formal ows by a white and colored bishops together. There were some features about the annual meeting of the Washington Conference, just closing its 61st session at Ames M. E. Church, that will probably be of interest to readers throughout the country. In general there were the usual encouraging reports, especially financial, there being $218,893 spent for ministerial support alone. Approved charities got $87,643 for the conference year and the Area owns $2,067,455 in church property. But, according to this same report the total increase in church membership was 299, with no increase in Sunday-school memberships and an increase of around 5,000 in the Epworth League Department. It will be interesting to know how the churchmen of the denomination interpret these figures and whether they feel that they are getting commensurate results for so large an outlay. Another feature worth thinking about is the effort the white and colored wing of this great Church is making to deal with racial and civic problems in the spirit of the doctrines of their church. There is an unmistakable trend towards union of interests. As Bishop McDowell said at the closing session, this conference saw for the first time in the history of the denomination a formal ordination of four elders by a white and colored bishops together. That's progress. THE OIL SCANDAL live and more as the amazing revelation, connivance and looting of public pro-race, the more you realize that they are jihome to roost.

No doubt some of the men caught the meshes are at heart innocent, but they and the thousands of hystanders who will suffer from this mess are the victims of a national spirit of law desecration, exploitation of human beings and general injustice tolerated by our administrative machinery. We have always had corruption in politics, but for the most part it has come from political hucksters of a different sort. This time it has reached the highest places and stained some of the most illustrious American names. The Government cannot point fingers at a few malefactors or prosecute a few crooks and let the matter rest there. It is the deep seated spirit that has long been eating at the vitals of this nation that must be rooted up. For years the Government has virtually winked at certain types of law breaking and corruption as long as the victims were defenseless colored men and women. We have had a civil service system honest upon the law records, but administered with gross injustice to the Negro. Public funds have been jugged and administered so as to rob 10,000,000 colored citizens of their just share of advantages, and now like the Ku Klux Klan that started out solely to prosecute Negroes, cancer is eating at the heart of the very government itself. Law desecration, warped ideas of human relations and injustice are dangerous agencies even to use against defenseless men and women; like chickens, they always come home to roost.

The "Teen Pot Domes" of the Bishops By William Pickens The Methodist preachers have their little stinking "oil cans" also Dobeny and Meadau are not the only publishes on the sect. The poet for the oil is their trail of oil is paralleled by the light in Negro churches for the bishops; and its trail of slime and gin. Every kind of mud is being slung by the rival presidential candidates. The poet for the oil is political factions. And every kind of dirt is being tossed by the rival candidates for the episcopacy, the rival chenchmen, and the rival supporters. White "hosses" are being accused of stealing millions. Black Bishops are being accused in the thousands. Everybody who is after anything, is being knifed by everybody else who happens to be after the same thing. The Democratic presidential candidate is accused of being knifed by the bishops of the great Negro Methodist church are accused of being soaked in "gin." One of the great Methodist conferences, for the election of bishops, is to meet in Louisville and an audience. It seems to promise that religion will have no part in the proceedings between the opening prayer and the closing benediction. In all between is to be war to the knife. Every person who is charged is to be charged and recharged. The fellow who goes in handicapped by religious scraps, is sure to be beaten. We suggest that convenient checking rooms be arranged in the entrance lobby. Checking rooms are called Religion can play no part in a fight like those that are promised. Oppose this check room for religion, there ought to be a booth labeled: "Bury Your Clubs At This Counter." Religion can be counted and forged, like those used by the African kings, will be needed for a fellow to fight his way thus successfully. Are Needed On earth cannot politicians and preachers both decide to be good sports and light honorably for the same prize without trying their all? There is just one presidency, and five or six candidates. There are just four or five places available for new bishops, and fifty or sixty candidates. Why should any of these men be appointed to these positions, do and say things which they will be ashamed of all the rest of their lives, whether they win or lose? Where ought to be MORE LAX-MEN or more lay power in these Negro Methodist general conferences. More laymen would help the decent preachers out. The average laymen would be more independent of the superior powers, and would stand by the best among the min- It would not hurt, too, if there were a law making any person ineligible for election to be a bishop before the conference assembled. Let them all come to the conferences and put their cases first before the assembled delegates there. That would save a lot of mud-slinging. That would also give God a better chance to have something to do with the election of bishops. At present, about all God is allowed to have to do with it, is to elect a bishop, politicians and vote-rusters select, elect and put them over. BISHOP W SAMPSON BROOKS THE WHATNOT COLUMN By R. P. Edwards (For The Associated Negro Press) 107. Won is called 'The Apostle o Education?' Daniel A. Payne, sometimes called "The Apostle of Education," was born in Charleston, S. C. by trade school in his native city until forced to close by the slave holders; whereupon he left the city. In 1840 he joined the Philadelphia Conference of preachers, and after serving churches at Washington, Baltimore and other cities, he was elected a bishop. In 1853 he purchased for his family a university, in the State of Ohio, and the success that this school has attained is due largely to his efforts. He died in 1881, a time president of the Payne Theological Seminary at that place. 108. Who was Phyllis Wheatley? In the year of 1761 there arrived in Boston harbor a slave girl who wore a white skirt, whose only clothing was a small piece of dirty carpet. Among those who were impressed by the appartenent intelligence of John Wheatley, who finally purchased, her, and through kind treatment and encouragement, Phillis, (the name given her by Mrs. Wheatley) learned to care for poetry. Phillis Wheatley eventually wrote a book of 40 poems, whose literary merit disposed some to question their origin; and she wrote a memoir of the writers of her day. 109. Who is the world's champion bricklayer? James Wetherley, a Negro, laid 120 bricks for a cement for 300 bricks per minute. It required 12 men to wait on him. This feat was accomplished at Elberton, Ga., and is believed to be a record. St. John's road near Grafton, W. Va., laid 42,000 bricks of 10w, lain (200 tons) in 8 hours, an average of 87 bricks per minute. Martin has been known to lay 50 bricks in the wall and is the champion bricklayer. SMOKE EATERS SMOKE EATERS By Antoine E. Green Dept. of Bacteriology, Howard University, Dept. of Public Health. The next time you go to college and other stores where tobacco products are sold. Almost every block in every city has its tobaccoist or other stores where cigars are sold. The number of men you pass on the street, puffing contentedly away at pipe or cigar. If you indulge, count the number of cigars you smoke, and figure the cost per day, per month, per year for this luxury—for luxury it surely is. Over two billion dollars annually in tobacco is staggering sum when considered. The next time you smoke consider yourself contributing to the vast pile of two billion dollars which is burned and contributes to nicotine and smoke worship. I have a warning for you who daily smoke six cigars or two and three packages of cigarettes "coffin milk", and when I see some of our hollow chested, anemic youths, literally smoke eaters, who fail to qualify physically. I think the term well The effects of tobacco smoking on the human system have been studied, and of the trinity, the cigarette has more virulence than cigarettes to determine the tolerance to cigar, pipe and cigarette smoke on the part of healthy men, prove that man is more quickly overcome by the smoke from cigarettes which contains pyridine derivatives. Since cigarette smoke is more frequently inhaled, this may account for the deleterious effects when the cigarette habit is carried to excess. Cigars, of course, are more expensive, and to some extent, Pipes are troublesome, requiring care and frequent filling—and pipe smoking is to my mind the most economical and least habit—forming of the triple combination, although sweets and sweeteners may disagree with me from an aesthetic viewpoint.

DAY BY DAY By W. N. Jones British Labor's Housing Program Ramsay MacDonald, head of England's housing government, says he will put into operation his plan to provide proper houses for that country's working population, even if "he has to 'break' the building material ring." This Britain and right talk. People in this country might well watch the results of England's first labor government. It may also other government he had helped. But first time in history that working men have been at the head of the British Empire and is already having a profound effect on human relations throughout the world. The new theory that Premier MacDonald will put into practice in his housing program is radical. It will cheapen housing by cutting off profits from all sources not directly connected with construction or oc- The world is moving towards this theory that land ownership should be limited to such individuals as the upper American this is almost unthinkable, for most of our big fortunes are now in real estate and a system where owners can place their land in places have places in which to live. But having this to happen in England where Lords and other titled notables have for ages lived off the toil of subjugation and added to the land is indeed impending. Since the Negro race has suffered tremendously from the abuses of tenancy, both in the South, where they are openly robbed of the product of their toil and in the North, where high and unreasonable rents are imposed upon workers, we keep an eye on the British Labor housing program. KELLY MILLER SAYS The race will figure more effectively in the coming election than it has since the overthrow of reconstruction regime. The inclusion of woman suffrage has doubled political strength. The migration to the North and West has given the Negro the balance of power in half of a dozen states where formerly the white race was evenly divided. ```markdown ``` The Approaching The Negro race faces the approaching presidential election without a policy and without a program. The race will figure more effectively in the coming election than it has since the overthrow of the reconstruction regime. The inclusion of woman suffrage has doubled the strength of the black vote in the North West has placed a larger contingent in the area of equal political opportunity. In as many as a half dozen States he holds the balance of power between the Democratic and Republican parties. Over a million Negro votes will be cast and counted in the next election. The practical question of consuming moment is how can this vast political potential be utilized to give a better treatment of the race. There are three ways in which this might be done. Republicans Fail 1. By beneficial legislation to remove existing racial distinction and discrimination. This is practically a forlorn hope. The Republican party in the last election has already hoped that it can hope to secure again in the near future. The whole race was united in the request for some positive legislation which would check lynching and hostility of which the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People and other Civic Rights Organizations led the light as valiantly and skillfully as such a light is likely to be led. And yet the measure Nor is suspicion wanting that the controlling party never intended to enact it into law. Many years ago, Senator Henry Henry was the one who was it hopeless for the Negro to hope for any further amended legislation. Senate Lacks Manhood When Mr. Archibald Grimke and myself called upon Senator Foraker, then as ever our consistent State commerce regulation and urged him to insist upon the abolition of race discrimination in inter-State passenger traffic, the good Senator generally advised us that the Senate who would have the manhood even to introduce such—measure. During the world war when the Federal government took over control of the railroads, I indicted a telegram to President Wilson urging that the Federal Government should make no distinction among patriotic and loyal American citizens in quest worthy of an answer, although it was sent in behalf and on authority of the American Negro Academy. "The Federalized evils under which the Negro suffers and against which he complains justly as an American citizen are jim-cow ears, laxness and lynching, racial discrimination, and restrictive These forms of discrimination are the product of law and can there does not seem to be the slightest chance of changing any of these things by congressional action, however, the coming election however, continues the demand for consideration of the Dyer Bill or some other measure of checking lawlessness almost especially at vices. The Existing Laws The second type of advantage which the Negro may hope to gain is the fair and equal enforcement of existing laws so far as the National Government is concerned. Some time ago I called public attention to the need for a block barbed on algae. The ash appointment of a colored applicant to a civil service position in Washington is almost unheard of in these days. It is needless to refer to the enforcement of the Fourteenth and Fifteenth Amendment to the Constitution likely to be elected in the coming campaign. Such heroic treatment of this greatest National scandal is more than any same Antecedent that expect that inner matters of the law equal consideration will be accorded the Appointive Offices In the third place, we may hope to gain a larger recognition in appointive office. One-tenth of the government has excluded from participation in the government. It is of vital importance that we should receive fair and equal proportion of appointments which rest upon the public powers inherent in the race itself. The significance of Negroes holding important Government places more than a fancied notion. It is highest in fact that they have element of our population distributed throughout the whole range of public places. As long as we are unacustomed to seeing colored men in high governmental station, just so long will remain satisfied with such exclusion. A high governmental functionary will soon look out of place even to the Negro merely because of its color. We started to see a Negro in the United State Senate, simply because I have not witnessed such a sight since 1881. To those who never saw the actual presence of a Negro in the fact is hardly believable. Cohen's Confirmation The confirmation of Mr. Walter Cohen as Comptroller of the Customs at New Orleans is a great victory for Negro representation in the government of which he forms a majority, and he helps to support and sustain. All honor is due to President Harding for his courageous and statemeunlike stand in opening the door of hope which seemed hopeful for him. He is a colored man to an important federal office in the South after his republican predecessor had declared against that policy and his insistence in standing in front of the one act of his administration that more than any other or than all others combined endures his memory to the colored race. His rejection is also due to President Coolidge in carrying out to the letter the purpose of his political inheritance in regard to this significant appointment, in the coming campaign, to the office of president to the race the greatest possible number of important federal positions. It makes absolutely no racial difference as to the personality of the appointee, the right and competent and loyal to the groom which they represent. Elective Offices In the fourth place the Negro should seek to secure as many Negroes in executive office as possible. The game is a public game until it can elect its own members to important public office. It may indeed be important to play the game because of the shade of difference with which they regard the Negro. But this is only playing the second fiddle in the orchestra. A race should send as many of its members as possible to the city courts. There is no observable reason why the voters in a great State like Illinois, New York and Pennsylvania and even Maryland should be on the Congressional ticket. Primary politics is limited to those who are on the inside the cup. The Negro race, some of the most measured uncontested political power, has lingered long enough around the outer skirts of the real game. If the race will be represented in Congress by more than one member of its own kind and kin. The basis of this accomplishment if not its actual achievement should be laid bare. The shifting of Negro population to the North will effect great political compensation. The effective assistance of the Negro population will rights to the Negro will hardly be made by the white statesman in our day. There is scarcely a voice in either floor of Congress for the wrongs and outrages which are daily heaped upon this black political orphan. The world will only hear his own voice thundering the seats of authority and power. Good Government It is always taken for granted that all elements of the population are investment and in laws that promote the best good of all. The Negro is indeed a vicarious voter. Politically he often prefers another's advantage before his own. He outlines the Negro press does not stand up vigorously for the bonus, not because it will not directly benefit the race before the public, but because he has been told that by some unexplained economic process, the black soldier will lose more than his two bonus by some remote and abstract economic indirection. The race will in the main stand for the bonus by some remote and abstract economic indirection. The race will in the main stand for the bonus by some remote and abstract economic indirection. If after fifty years of political experience in the year of our Lord 1924 to formulate a statesmanship and a practical program of political wisdom, the white world will have the right to govern very poor political indices indeed.

Hickok's fame was now great. He became marshal of Hays, Abilene and Elsworth. Wild Bill never killed a man until forced to. To uphold the law he had to kill forty-six men.

"BIRTHRIGHT" AT THE DUNBAR Problem of the Race Girl in the South There Next Week "Birthright," a story of the Negro and the South, is crowded with more action, thrills, romance and comedy than any story on this subject since "Uncle Tom's Cabin." He is a graduate of Harvard and so far she never in all intellectual things until she decided that it was useless to try to come to him, so told him she was immortal, thereafter, so he went away from her. Dut she was ambitious: she wanted to be somebody, but the Negroes told her, "be a balloon, fly-by-night hussy"—and accused her of all kinds of bad things. She struggled, but how could a poor colored girl be anything in the face of such circumstances?...Fate seemed to be against her; the more she tried to struggle up, the further she was pushed back into the grime and squalor of "Niggertown." Then came a never to be forgotten night when she was arrested and thrown into jail charged with GRAND LARGENY!...But was she guilty? Or was it because she refused to deliver the thing she possessed, her VIRTUE—her BODY—unto the seducer? Playing the leading roles are, Evelyn Preer, Salem Tutt Whitney, J. Homer Tutt, and Lawrence Chenault. See the answer to this poor girl's burning, heart-rending problems at the Dumbard Theatre, Tuesday and Wednesday, April 2nd and 3rd.

There is a movement of much moment about among the picture producers and exhibitors, to popularize again the short-subject moving pictures. These films of one and two-second length were every program of the coming season of films until a few years ago, when the multiple-reel craze struck the country. The advantage of the short subject is that one may view a drama and show all of the pleasure to be obtained, in a shorter time than is wasted in watching the stories muddled out to 5 and 12 reel lengths. THE AFRO-AMERICAN WOMAN COMES BACK IN "BLACK OXEN" WOMAN COMES BACK IN "BLACK OXEN" Film of Love and Adventure at Roosevelt Next-Week This sensational picture booked at the Roosevelt for Monday, March 31st, and Tuesday and Wednesday, April 1st, and 2nd, is the drama of a woman who thought she could change her heart by changing her face. The strongest adventure that ever befell a woman in the land of love and romance. She had been the most beautiful woman in the richest and most exclusive set in the world. She beat a field of throughbreds in a race for the greatest husband-of-the year. The most brilliant hostess of the diplomatic courts of Europe, and had all the young bloods and statesmen at her feet for her physical and intellectual charms. And then— At the age of 55, when she had grown old and tired and withered and had been discarded by all lovers, she had her endocrines revitalized by the Steinach scientific treatment. Returning to New York she outdid in physical and mental charms the daughters and granddaughters of her former chums. She won the impassioned love of women the eldest and most brilliant women in America. "British Oxon" reveals to women the secret of youth and beauty—and its true, a startling scientific discovery. Paul Robertson will fill the part recently filled by Charles Glinp in Roseanne. It is reported that Mr. Glinp did not care to go out with the drama on the colored time. We think we can fully appreciate Mr. Glinp's reason for refusal, but he is a distinct character. We would like to have given the illustrious Charles the up and down. Nevertheless the company for the road "presentation will probably go on tour intact, so we have something to hope for. The company has moved to the Lafayette and opened Monday. Blake and Sissie's new show, "In Hamville," opened last Monday in the Nixon Theatre, Pittsburgh. Lottie Gee, Valida Snow, The Four Harmony, the Mona Lisa, and Sissie are the leading principals.

My new duties occupied all my time and before the first year passed a little daughter came to us. She was a girl and I used to long to take up my brush but couldn; find the time.

I believe that while a woman is not her family she should give her entire time to the job. As the children developed, three of them showed remarkable talent along artistic lines. The boy was a painter and that work now, and two of the girls are following their beloved art in Kansas city. I feel I contributed more to the cause of art than if I Last year the youngest child was 18, so I feel that now I can follow my own inclinations a little and have opened a small space in my room.

No: Not Too Old for Her Dear Annie Roney—I am very much in love with a young man nine years older than I. He has asked me to be his wife, and I have consoled him. My wife may he be too old for me. Do you think that makes any difference? Since my promise to marry him I have found him untrue to me, as he is going with another girl. How can I make him realize that he is treating me unfairly?

Fruit Juice Pudding Sauces The thrifty homewife is often puzzled to know how to use the juice which is sometimes too thick. We find any good juice may be made into a delightful sauce for either steamed or baked pudding. To each cup of juice, we add a cup of sugar, butter the size of a wainnut, a cup of water, and enough cornstarch to thicken the sauce. It is boiled in the usual manner. Stir it continually to prevent scorching, and then pour the juice from dried fruit may be used, but it is better if the juice is art. We always use all stale cake and broken cookies as a pudding, merely the juice of a cow before serving with the fruit-juice sauce.—NELLE. Glad Her Hair Is Bobbed I am a busy farmer's wife and the mother of six children. A neighbor bobbed her hair and kept her bobbed. After I mentioned it to my husband and the boys, I didn't get any rest until it was cut. Would I do it again? I certainly would! It is so much easier taken care of, as you know, a wife's job, and herself. In the morning upon rising, all I need to do is to smooth my hair down and it looks much neater than it did when I pulled down over one's ears until after the morning work is done. The boys and my husband say my hair looks nicer since I had it bobbed than they ever saw it. I have had many compliments on who haven't plenty of time and money to bob their hair. All the time the scissors were snipping I was debating in my mind, but when the hair dressers put the wave in I was pleased with my changed looks. And generally, it improves a woman's looks; at least, I have had many compliments on my hair. BOBBED HAIRED MOTHER. Stingiest Person One day, while at the bank with a friend of mine, I saw a man who the person beside him was looking at very much.

Naturally we are compelled to transfer to another building for our church services. This building is smaller than our former one, and equipped with individual seats. Now since this building is not as large as the destroyed building, we are forced to sit on the church services last from 6 until 6:30, and at this time the service had been in session for about 20 minutes, therefore it was rather quiet. I was sitting on the chair as much room as possible, and happened to be sitting on my seat-mate's coat. All at once she decided to pull her coat from under me without giving me any warning, and before I knew it I was sitting flat on the It is indeed very hard to get up when you are in such a position as this.

POOR LI'L CAROLIN' A sunbeam wed a rose and Carolin' was born. She was a true daughter of dreams. In her the ideal trod the threshold of the real. What a wonder then when the man who had trusted her and married her returned from his work at 3 o'clock in the morning and found this fairy creature of his returning home with another man. No wonder that he should have driven a cruel fist into the velvet brown of a tear-stained cheek. George Essex was 34 years old and a war veteran. You can guess the rest. Yes, he's the same Sergeant Essex that captured a machine gun nest almost single-handed, get wounded for his enthusiasm and incidentally became the possessor of medals, ribbons and cords. But this is not a war story. This is a tale involving the wife of George Essex, the complications adhering to her. When I returned to our home city last summer from a profitless trip out West, George was filling the position of general superintendent of a job that was neither romantic nor unplifting, but packed a juicy monthly financial income, and as the American dollar surpasses race, religious beliefs, sentiment, and plain human love, he wasn't considered using much by gluing to the earth. I was a tickled brownskin to observe that my old side kick and extattle buddy was acting as prime minister for Matt, for that meant I was going to hang around where I could depend upon my rights to do so by virtue of being in good with the high manager. The Night Star was about the only place in town where a fellow of my capabilities could pick up a few stray kopecks via cards and dice, and as my exhebber was lower than an knocker's principles, I was aware that things were shaped as they were. I guess I'd been back about a week or ten days before George began into the secret. The secret was that I was brought into the life of his wife. I was brought into the neighborhood of Sunny California, and from what he said on that occasion I deducted that he'd drawn a needle from his pocket to the Divide. She could cook, keep house, carve expenses, and handle a needle with incomparable skill, besides being a woman with intelligence enough to appreciate a good job. She told me that she had told me, they had never quarreled. She wasn't the irascible kind. She understood. She knew how to pick their ship of destiny to appreciate a good job without running into the ragged rocks of domestic infidelity, and because she was that kind of woman George worshiped her with a devotion that made me feel rather uncomfortable, and listened to her ravings with a show of interest. We can do that for our friends, you know.

That is why we call it friendship. Finally, there came a day when he invited me out to his house for dinner. the purpose being to introduce me to this wife who was afraid I be disappointed in her, but he was so insistent that at last I consented to accompany him. I found that they lived in a nice little neighborhood in the northern semi-urban area, in a cozy swelling place was a scrupulous little five-room cottage, recently painted, and equipped with modern appliances, such as lights and running water. The interior of the living room was decorated in the capabilities of Mrs. Essex as a housekeeper. Not only was it spiked and span and clean from stem to stem, but the decorative scheme showed the exquisite taste of the wife who woman who was my friend's wife. As for Mrs. Essen—well, she was pretty. That is a vague description, as each man has a different idea of beauty, but that is the best way to describe it. Mrs. Essen gifted her to be about 14. In color she was what you or I would classify as a high brown. As for hair, she had loads of it; black, shiny hair, just irritably red. Her hair was rest of her—well, she was neat, trim, shapely, with small feet and rounded ankles. She acknowledged the introduction gushingly, something like a school girl. Her attitude convinced me that she was a woman when her husband saw it to select for a friend was good enough to be gradually received by her. Experts in the matter aster that many homes have wrecked because the woman had to work with her husband's pals. This might be true or it might not. I have never given much thought to the subject, but after seeing Carolina, I felt a mind that she would never make herself unhappy by mugging with her spouse over his buddies. The comic fellows, those chaps who make a living, and shine in the sun of fame, through their wantonness, charm, and humor, their primacy, have impressed upon the public mind that the American housewife throws a series of conption fits, and a few flat trims every time her "good provider" brings company home to dinner without first notifying her husband but at the same time of the overdue trust.

So we went to the kitchen, singing snatches of popular songs as she worked, George and I took our ease in the little parlor where he set the phonograph to going. The meal that followed was a poem. Take a man like me, who has chased over the greater part of the continent for the sake of the country, settling down in any one place permanently, it's quite a treat to him to stick his legs under a table and feast on real home-cooked food; but I am not praising Carolinna's skis and she was a mighty good cook, without a doubt. A woman can be a little homely, she can be a trifle too, but a woman who is a well-cooked, but a wiginess, prepare the dishes her husband most admires, and if she is worthy of the loyal faith every man places in his wife, she stands a pretty good show in the kitchen, the affections of her breadwinner. After dinner Carolina called in one of the neighbors and we played whist. It was an enjoyable evening, but the time she suggested taking dinner with him I did not demur. But the little dinners did not last forever. Matt Roberson, who was in the halls of hungring around him, suggested taking dinner in full charge of the day shift, immortalized himself with the idea that it was detrimental to his physical well being and the like to labor during the two sma hours of the night, so he would accept the responsibility for a month or so, and see how he would like it. George, of course, put up a howl, as it didn't look fair to Carolina, but he received him such a proposition that, finally, George, after consulting Carolina, acceded to his employer's request. After a week of the new shift he met that itself that it wasn't so bad. Naturally Carolina tried to dissuade him at first as she didn't like the idea of being home alone at night, but she soon adjusted herself to the new arrangements and every little thing went flowing along as smooth as Shortly after this Pee Wee and I took a flying trip to Chi, and we gone ten days to Chi. "The right that covered, to my gentle surprise, that George wasn't on duty, I inquired for him and was informed that he had decided to take a short vacation. That sounded reasonable, so I asked to be covered. About an hour or so later I was on my way to a little café, that I was in the habit of patronizing, when I called George, who was sure he saw him, but when I grabbed his hand for a friendly old shake, I met with a surprise that sort of stunned me for the notice. George was not a drinking man. George was taken up now and then, a lot of people do, but he wasn't an addict. He could go for weeks without ever thinking of conferring with George, but when I inquired not intensely. Not heavily intensified; but just mellow enough to let you know that he had had something. Great guns!" I gaped, "whate the holiday, George?" Why celebrate? "Lo, Harry," he grinned; a grin that was forced . . . "You back? Goal to see you." Yet, I knock you are "I replied, You, I knock you it makes a scarcity. "A man in your condish would be glad to see anybody or anything. What's come over you? Celebrating your birthday?" We were standing in the street, the illumination house, the illumination dusting through the show windows, emulating me to obtain a good look at him. When I mentioned the celebration the foolish grin faded for a second or so and the ovilish eyes changed their expression, but the effect was not permanent. I saw him face once more, and the eyes resumed that ovilish leer. "You ask lotta questions, Harry, me but I don't. I don't. She would affectionately, "and like most people that do the same thing, you don't understand.

I just got a tetta trouble's all." "Trouble?" The first thought that flashed in my mind was the Jewel, Carolin, whom I supposed to be above rework. When we learn that he is in trouble, funny how we think of a man's wife. Funny how we suspect. But it's human, and I am human. When he replied, in a strange voice that made no fear he was going to burst, into drunken tears. "And nobody to tell 'om to. Harry. Tought when you ain't got a pad." Nonsense. I cut in, half-savagey. Your pal. Can I help you?" He tried to embrace me, but I avoided that. "Suseme me," he slaveder, "sure, you're my pal. Guess I can tell you. Guess you can advise me. Guess you can tell me to the Star Night an 'talk it over.' "Lot of the fellows are up there," I protested. "Do you want them to see you like this?" "Don't care," he sighed. "Don't give me care 'bout nothing. Come on. Anybody say anything dell'em to take a bike." The best place to hold a star chamber session of any sort at the club is in Matts' private office, a room closed and sounded. In reaching this retreat we were forced to pass them the main casino, but the crowd of fellows gathered there paid up no matter what. George slumped into the nearest chair, while I switched on the lights. I have never seen a fellow, who had everything in his hands and broken up as my friend did at that moment. I felt alarmed as I gazed at him. I knew that he was in serious trouble. I drew up a chair, set it direct, and leaned forward my hands on his knees. His eyes were closed but he opened them at my touch. His huge body shook and he wiped his hands and struck him, although the mouth was August. "What's wrong, old pal?" I asked, endeavoring to make my voice kind and tender. "Tell me all about it, and tell me all about it. I'll break my neck getting it for you." He rubbed his hands across his eyes and stared at me. The eyes were filled with a hopeless dread, and the man held his mouth acting like a man acts when he vakes from a drugged sleep. I had never seen him in that condition before. "So it's Harry," I conquered, "and I'm here to help you. Tell me about it." He tried to get to his feet but I pushed him ask for clear grooming, and that he was getting nervous. Another thing I noticed also. He was surprisingly sober. "Don't—don't pester me, Harry," he grunted, "to make me feel for me now, without adding others." "I thought that you wanted to confide in me," I said. "in you!" His stare went straight to my heart. "Yes," I modeled. "You brought me up to your purpose. But if you are presenting, too much." "As much as the average man," I said. "Do you?!" he mattered. "Then you ought to be able to master a situation. Supposing you were married to a woman whom you supposed to be as true to you as you were, you ought to the field. Supposing you worshipped her, loved her, idolized her, lavished your very soul upon her? Supposing that she made you believe that her only desire in life was to satisfy you, she was used to satisfy you? Supposing, Harry, that you went home at 5 o'clock in the morning and discovered that she was out? What would you do?"

"In the morning," he said calmly—a calmness that did not extend below the surface, "two hours ahead of my usual time, which is 5 o'clock or thereabout. Carolin' was not the time, nor had the bed been slept in. The room showed that she had dressed hastily. She wore her best gown." "Well, maybe she went to the aid of a sick friend." I said, limply. "She's large-hearted, you know. Believes in success. In success she can telephone to any of your friends—her friends?" he scoffed. "Would it took nice for me to broadcast to the world that my wife was out? Another? Another? Another? Harry; if the business she was on was legitimate she would have written a note informing me of her whereabouts. Other times, when she would go to church or run over to one of the neighbors, she would tell me. I never compelled her to do this, mind you. I have allowed her freedom aplenty. I have never attempted to dictate harsh terms to her as some husbands are wounded or as some husbands are of her own free will. But this morning she did not." "But you must not judge Carolin' harshly. I expostulated, with a bit too much fear, perhaps. Perhaps she was afraid to remain home alone and went over to one of the neighbors." "Don't make a fool of yourself, Harry," he said bitterly. "Do you imagine I thought of other things, too. Why didn't she phone me of her intentions? But let me get down to brains tackles. You had to be fine, too, deeply confident in her to suspect deception, but an hour later, when a taxi stopped in front of the house and she got out of the car, something happened to my head, and I—" "George!" I cried, leaping to my feet. "What are you saying?" "That she came home with a man," he repeated, cold-bloodedly, "I was standing at the front window peering out and seeing with the shock of it I would have rushed out there and confronted him, but by the time I was able to control my actions the taxi had gone and she was fitting key in the door. I was in the hour ahead of me, tides of Rome! But it is a wonder I did not go insane! My blood was bitter than lava and there was murder in my heart. How long had she been out with me? A fool? That is the only question that occurred to me. How long had she been going out with this man? You can't generalize to me I felt. I can't harry, I can't appreciate the human for an outraged husband unless he has had the experience.

J., Declaring that the ministers of Atlantic City would do well to confine all of their energies to the preaching of the gospel and keep out of politics. Rev. J. H. Lucas, pastor Mt. Olive Baptist Church, stated yesterday that due to "recent experiences" he had withdrawn from two political clubs to which he had been affiliated. Just what the "recent experiences" were the fiery pastor did not say. He believes that for a minister, or anyone, to be in politics he must take sides and to do this would impair the parson's efficiency as the chosen leader of a Christian flock. Dr. Lucas also gave as a reason for his stand in regard to city politics that although he would "find himself the only man of the finest citizens of the community; but also, for himself linked up with the basest violators of our laws, men who through fear of punishment or because of past favors were compelled to "fall in line" with their recusations. The declaration of the Mt. Olive pastor, coming as does our pastor of the most bitterly contested city Commission elections in the history of the resort, has caused public cliques. Many of the lead postors are intensely interested in politics and their churches are often used for political gatherings. T. C. Walker Tells of Education In South Before a large and appreciative audience that numbered fully 1,500 persons on Sunday, Lawyer T. C. Walker of Gloucester county, Va., delivered a series of educators, delivered the main address at the annual "Education Day" at Union Temple. "Conditions of the Colored Boys of the addresses by the eminent educator, and he said that there were 225,000 Negro children who did not have the opportunity to secure an education above the seventh grade, and there are only six which offered training for colored boys and girls above the seventh grade, and there are only six which standardized high school for colored children. The speaker made a plea that the people of the North help those of the South who are in such dire need of help along educational In speaking of the migration of Negroes northward, Mr. Walker declared that if those people were not properly treated they would not suffer the more problem from the South to the North and it is the duty of the man in the North as well as the Southerner to provide ample and efficient educational facilities for these people. To meet the condition he declared will be achieved by the local junior school facilities, which the local school boards of Virginia refuse to provide. Mr. Walker is making an appeal to the public to help this condition, and he himself is building a school in Gloucester County as proof that his people will succeed. Preceding lawyer Walker, Mayor Edward L. Bader extended the official welcome he received him aid and bid the collection with a donation of $25. In his talk the Mayor praised Dr. P. L. Hawkins, the only colored member of the city schools, for his work among the city schools which he declared to be the finest in the city. Dr. Hawkins spoke, following the Mayor, and briefed community members about the Union Temple, Rev. J. P. Gregory, for the stand he has always taken in educational work in the city. Miss Mary J. Washington president of the M.A. Center, expressed her address in the subject, "The Challenge of the Hour." Youthful Violinists To Assist In Concert Monroe Dowling, son of Captain and Mrs. J.

Jacobs for the first year of high school has broken down the barriers and have been elected a member of the senior orchestra. He is considered the soloist of the school.

Dowling played Ford Dabney's New York orchestra when this organization was at the Patals Royal on the Boardwalk. This will be their big chance and their best good.

Director Clark of the Public Athletic League which handles all school boy and girl athletics, was up in the Afro office Tuesday and asked whether the AFRO would finance the baseball games for schoolboys again this year and offer a pennant for the winner of the city championship. It took only a few minutes to make all arrangements for the Afro League to go on again this year, and Mr. Clark announced then that practice would start in Drudl Hill park next Monday, and that the league would formally open about April 14. Next week he expects to have the schedule arranged and all entry lists in Last year, there were 12 schoolboy teams in the Afro League. School 100 won the championship in the Eastern District and school 101 won the three two teams just before school closed, met in a three game series which School 100 concocted by Frank Sorrell and generally bossed by Principal George Owens, carried off the championship title. We was a proud moment for the school at commencement when the pennant was awarded by the Afro indicating that they were the best schoolboy baseball players in the city. McCoy, Lee Kelly Kyle, Mitchell Woodland, Hines and Vaughan Goodloe and Blackburn, who made up the top three, were the they marched on the stage and each have been something of a hero this school year also. Principal Owens says his school is out again to win the championship this year. Already the crack of the bat and the thump of the ball in the mit is being heard in all school yards where boys are getting ready for the real league. It is likely that a mobile app will be as last year, and the box scores of the games and the standing of the clubs will be kept in the AFRO, just like it is kept for the big Eastern League professional teams.

Washington, Mar. 26. — Manager Ben Taylor of the Washington Potomacs, announces the signing of his brother, John (Steel Arm) Taylor, as trainer and coach, to Ben. He also act as assistant manager to Ben. Steel Arm will public as one of the race's greatest pitchers a decade or so ago. Starting his baseball career in 1900 with the Birmingham, Ala., Giants, at that time managed by his brother, C. L. he was hated as a marvel, owing to his great speed. He saw 17 years of active service, pitching on such clubs as the go giants of 1910, the St. Louis Giants, St. Louis Giants, American Giants of Chicago and A. B. C's of Indianapolis. Among some of the notable pitching feats accomplished by Steel Arm was during a game at San Antonio, Texas in 1908. Cyclone Joe Williams, late of the Lincoln Giants, was pitching for San Antonio, the score stood 1 to 0 in Steel Arm's favor, last half of the ninth inning. Up to that period Steel had not won on base and no outs; three men had on base and no outs; nearly settled down and struck out the next three men that faced him, winning the game 1 to 0. In another game he struck out the first three men that faced him, only to see them all score, because his catcher could not hold his terrific speed. He will report to manager Ben Taylor April 1st, and will take active charge of the 10 inning. He also held the Potomac staff. String Beans Williams and "Country" Brown have already reported to manager Taylor, be a little overweight, but say they have never felt better, and expect to have one of their best years. Six men from Texas and two from Denver are on their way, and will arrive this week. By the last of the week all of the squand will be in numbering about 22 men in pitchers, four catchers out of outfielders, infielders will try for regular jobs. The first exhibition game listed for the Potomac is April 13th, at York, Pa. One or two practice games may be played with the Howard University squadrangle, led his colts to Baltimore for an exhibition affair with the rejuvenated Black Sox on April 20, and then back home where preparations are being made to handle the greatest crowd in the history of colored baseball in the grandpapep of the Cuban Stars the Potomac's home ground, American League Park, on April 24, 25 and 26.

BRAIN BRAIN BRAIN White Boys Down Athenians 46-39 Before Big Crowd Friday Night Come Back In Second Half And Play Champions Off Their Feet Ability to shoot free throws gave the Hendler basketball five a victory over the Athenians Friday night at the New Albert auditorium by the season 46 to 39. Winn the defeat of the Athenians went also their opportunity to snatch the state championship crown from the Ice Cream boys, who won it last week from Hagerstown. Hendler boys shot 15 field goals and Athenians 16. Hendler shot 10 five throws to the Athenians seven. By just this small difference was the victory gained. The game was a sizzler. No such thrills have ever before been seen on the local basketball floor. The white boys showed my surprise work and unimply patience in putting the ball into the basket from all angles. On the other hand Taskie and Young showed speed that fairly dazzled the heavier and slower opponents virtually playing them off their feet in the final period. Athenians Rattled Before the game the Hendlers came out early to practice and tossed goals for 20 minutes before the Athenians arrived. They only brought five men and each one showed ability to drop eight out of 10 throws thru the basket from the foul mark. The game got under way, it was easily seen that the Greeks were rattled. Baskerville, Rhodes and Keller missed repeatedly, while the ice cream boys were a slipping down the side lines to the extreme corner, where uncovered they threw the first ball. The first ball the score was 32 to 71 and the Athenians looked outclassed. Pimp Young, of Morgan, was rushed into the fray as were also like Wright, old Hampton star, and a newcomer from the Philly Panthers. Young made good in such fashion, fashion will make him to make a regular. He is the brother of the Lincoln University athletic coach. Furious Second Half Troy was cold when put in and in the second half, Keller replaced him again. Young was still in Rhodes place, and otherwise the Athenians lineup was the old regulars. This is the combination, which got going and put in basket for basket while the crowd defense. The Athens team defense held tight while Young, Baskerville and even Keller filtered thru the ice cream boys to make certain points. The Greeks made so many goals that it looked like they might tie the score on the tired Hendler machine, which with seven minutes to play, began "freezing" (tossing the ball around to rest up without any idea of making it) Keller accidently jabbed his finger in Waxman's eye during one of the jump-offs. The latter soon recovered and during the whole game gave a good account of himself. The game showed that the Athens are in the relationship class and his team could have won by a good margin but they not gotten involved in the first period. The most prominent players for the Henders were Waxman, Voith and Holew. The machine work of this team was the outstanding feature. All five players worked in nearly perfect uniform during the entire game. The game was played with good temp. throughout and the public is calling for a return game between these two teams.

At the end of the first half the score was 16-4 in favor of Wissahickon. The visitors constantly probed the referee's decisions and hated play. During the second half the visiting team played with four men after Parker was put out of the game for four personal fouls committed. Stone was later canned for abusive language but he was later allowed to play. This lasted until with about three minutes to play when Diggs, scorer for Wissahickon, accused Woodley Lawrence, a high school student, of setting the time back. The Wissahickon team walked off the court. Referee Mack Payne announced the game forfeited by the visiting team. The score was 35-24 for Wissahick- In the Preliminary Game In the preliminary game the Freshmen won from the Juniors to the score of 26-18.

According to Coach Gibson, Douglass High Athletic Association has now a definite game $300 left over from the football season. To the another is attributed the sim attendance of several of the football games. Ruffs of the Athletic Association will be directed this spring toward giving a play to enable the school to pay off these debts. For this reason it is likely, Coach Gibson said yesterday, that the high school may not have a baseball team. Baseball is usually a dead issue in athletics. High school athletes will have their attention turned to efforts will be made to condition men so that a group may be sent to the Howard Business in Washington and to the Hampton Institute games at Hampton. No team is contemplated for the Penn Relays. OH BABY, THIS JOB IS A WOW. NOW ILL AMBLE DOWN TOWN AN' PHONE THE WIFE, THEN ILL FIND SOMEBODY TO PINCH! P. A. L. LEAGUE The funds in the P. A. L.

By deft of hard work and brilliant playing the score was brought to a tie in the last five minutes and see-saw until the end of the game.

The Scholastics were show in get- ting started, but once on their way, easily outdistanced the visitors to the tune of 45 to 21. The locals started a new competition which was very much. With Aller and Ward in forward, "Fed's" Carter in center, and Harnon and Jackson in guard, they did not look like a team that had won 18 out of 19 starts. Joe Saunders soon changed the lineup and put the regulars in, and from then on the game became one- sided with the "wonder team" showing the way. Brown led the scoring with 23 points, the result of 1 field throw line. Aller followed with six brackets from the field. Russell, of the Drones played a great game for the losers, scoring 14 of his team's points and playing the floor well.

MARCH 28 (Protected by the Kelley Newspaper Feature Service) MORIOLES ROUT PHILLY "Y" --- Quaker Girls Go Down To Defeat, 25-3 In One- Sided Game Before a crowd of cheering spectators, the Orchards, local girls' team, walloped the Philadelphia "Y" team on the floor of the "Y" gym to the tune of 25-3. The game was a walk-away for the Orchards from the start, it was readily seen that the girls from the Quakers town were far outclassed. Superior speed, passing and aggressive work of the Orchards seemed to dazzle their opponents who were able to make only one good. Little Miss White of the Orchards was the outstanding player for her team, having scored five field goals. The work of Misses Calmes and Burnell was worthy of notice. Miss Wright of Philadelphia, shot the only goal for her team. The score at the end of the first half was 2-11 in favor of the Orchards and the Quakers were unable to add to it during the whole of the second period.

PAUL TRACK TEAM TO ENTER MEETS Candidates Work Hard for Hampton and Howard Events. By J. L. Whitehead Lawrenceville, Va., Mar. 4.—In response to the call of track and field coach Hubert A. Taylor, 43 sterling athletes made their appearance on Russell Field. Among the old track travelers are Banks, Moody, Yancy, Harrison, Johnson, Brown, Maddux, Davis, Creech and Baskerville. Coach Taylor is concentrating on the relay 110, 210 and 440. He expects to send a feely and endurable quartet to the Howard Meet. In the Virginia Meet he will enter the rebays, the 110, 220, and 440. He plans to participate in all of the collegiate events at the Hampton National Meet on May 17th. While no one is eligible to the captaincy, it is the consensus of opinion among the students that William H. Mounts, of Suffolk, Va., appointed acting 1924 track and field captain. The appointment is wholly within the jurisdiction of the head coach.

Y. Bout Why is it that all of the well known white middleweights and light heavyweights of the country avoid a match against the sensational colored middleweight champion, Tiger Flowers, of Atlanta, Ga.? Now work promoters have been trying in vain for more than six years to induce one in fact four of the leading middleweights to meet the "Tiger," finally deciding that their efforts in the direction of getting a man in his class were futile they made overtures to manager Walk Miller, who looks after the affairs of Flowers, requesting that he sign articles for the Tiger to meet Leo Anderson, at the Commonwealth Club, March in many cases. Miller accepted the match and will allow Flowers to spot Anderson more than 25 pounds in weight. The match on the 25th at New York will be the first appearance of the sensational Georgia fighter and in as much as Lee Anderson recently gave Kid Norfolk his hardest fight, it goes without saying the limb that the Commonwealth will take up. After the New York match Flowers will box at Youngstown the first week in April, at Cincinnati the second week, San Antonio, Texas, the third week, and Jaurez, Mexico, May 5th with Jeff Smith as his opponent. Flowers today wound up his training here and accompanied by his manager, caught a nightlight and will resume light training at here "Tiger" will resume light training at one of the gymnasiums, finishing up on Friday.

Martin, chairman; T. L. Pursey, L. L. Watson, and J. H. Lawrence—selected to award championships for the various sports in the Colored Intercollegiate Athletic Association has awarded Hampton Instituto the 1924 basketball championship. The Hampton five gets the award because of its record with association teams. The standing of the institutions in the association follows: Played Won Lost P.C.

It excelled in passing and shooting, and, with few exceptions, played a wonderful defensive game through the entire season after a tough fight for several seasons. Howard University introduced the sport again, winning three of their four association games. Coach Burry is to be commended for his work in establishing the sport again at Howard. Coach Martin at Union, made an outdoor court rather than wait longer for a gymnasium, which was in sight. The record team shot that in spite of such equipment it absorbed the principles of the game. Coach Young, at Lincoln, who was known several seasons ago for his wonderful playing on the Lincoln five, is at the helm for his Alma Mater. This year he had new material and a new system. He have the most seasoned and a better record is expected. Virginia Seminary and College and St. Paul introduced the sport for the first time. Both schools plan to play all association teams next year. Shaw University has been without the services of a coach. This fact has placed him on the list of teams. With the appointment however, of a graduate manager, Dr. J. O. Plummer, the future of athletics is bright for Shaw.

Accept 17-Year-Old Girl Says Dad Is Father Of Her Children Page Sixteen FATHER WHITE DAUGHTER IS COLORED Queer Inter-Racial Mix-Up Puzzled Judge Frank In Criminal Court GIRL IS 17 YEARS OLD Accuses Her "Dad" of Being Father of Her Two Infants Is James A. Spencer, Highlandtown, the father of the year-old baby and another unborn child that Margaret Spencer, his 17-year-old daughter, will soon give to the world? Is Margaret white or is she colored? She pointed the accusing finger at her father as he faced her in a characterization in part 1 of the Criminal Court Friday afternoon to answer the charge of incest. She told Judge Frank that James A. Spencer, the man she calls father, was also the father of her unborn Races in Doubt Other complicated questions entering into this strange trial was the racial status of the mother of Margaret, the grandmother of her children. All of his life Sweeney this had the status of a white man. According to testimony brought out the mother of Margaret is a German woman and she has not been seen since. Shortly after the birth of Margaret she left her husband and has not been seen since. In months ago Margaret lived with her father and had the status of white. When her first baby was born she then accused her father, but when the case came to light and he was dismissed, she then went to live with some white relatives of Spencer, and when faced with the father, she was seconded and she again accused her father, this time sticking to the story. The alleged relations with her father took place, she said, living with him in his Spencer Denies Charge In his own defense Spencer denied the charge of his daughter. He stated that he had been a model and a guardian of the girl he have induced her to make charges against him. Friends of his, all white, testified that he had given the guarding statements to them with reference to the father of the babies. Spencer, who claims to be a creature of the dark descent, is of light olive complexion with a foreign cast. He is said to be of the well-known never family here, who have always been known as "cold casters." The baby has been taken over by the Catholic Welfare Department, and Williams, will be placed in a colored institution.

Over half of the 250 employees in the Baltimore post office were hosts on this occasion to Mr. Gainey, who is the first race man to be appointed to a supervisory position in the post office department. An equal number of prominent local citizens were invited to meet the new assistant chief clerk. In his address he told how colored men were making good in the post office service throughout the country. "In New York," he said, "we have a superintendent at a sub station with a force of 50 employees, half of whom are white and whose office is a business of one and a half million dollars in postal savings last year. We also have a colored assistant superintendent of malls there." In Brought we have a superintendent of a branch office and the man in charge of the important inquiry department of the Brooklyn post office is a New York "In Indiana the chief examiner in the post office is a member of our group as is the chief weighmaster in the post office and the chief fire of the chief clerk of the R.

Finger Finger Print System Referring to the use of photographs accompanying examination papers in the Civil Service, operated to keep colored people from receiving appointments. Mr. Gainey declared an effort is being made to keep colored people in the system. The matter, he said, had been enlisted to the attention of President Coolidge, who had promised to write the Commission a letter urging them to do away with this evil. Mr. Gainey said his job was that of a reporter, and he had promised 22,000 colored workers in the post office department and the officials in Washington, and that he had been ordered by Postmaster General New to say to colored workers all over the country that they can work in the post office that they can handle, they cannot, have."

Baliffs brought him water, and his attorney heartened him to go on with his testimony. "Three weeks," he said, "after we had been married trouble began when I came home one day and found that my wife had allowed Margaret, who was a married woman, to entertain a man friend in her home. I objected and unbridled them. Then Margaret (the dead wife) wore her wife out and they began the wild and reckless living that has brought me to this." Found In Love En embrace Their first separation came when one might be because so ill that his wife suggested that he send for a friend. Clarence Wolfe, to sit up with them, in the dead of night, hugged up his bed and found his friend and wife asleep in a love embrace in a sateer in an adjoining room. He also stared that his wife told him that on another occasion Willie mistreated to his wishes while they were alone in the house. Upon her statement he secured a warrant for Brown, but the case was dismissed that his wife came to him willingly. In despair he secured a job on a ship and went to Cuba. On coming back he and Bessie the older sister saw him and persuaded him to return to his wife. For several months things went smoothly, but she became wain again. Indicates Morgan Student The final lift came according to Simpson, last summer, when his wife and sister left for a visit in Chicago. Not hearing from her for several days he went there and went to Orange, N. J. He went there, he testified, and found them and Edward Dorsey, then a student at Morgan College, and with whom he obviously had trouble about his wife. Coming back to the city he decided to end it all and took a sufficient number of blebs of bleblerdee to take care of it. He was taken to St. Joseph's hospital, where after treatment, he recovered. "My love for my wife," said Simpson, "even at this time, was such a condition and help returned to her and we began life together again. "After a short while it was the same old story. More men, more nights away from home, and then frankly that she was tired of me. "Then I said to her I could not stand it longer, and that this time I would have a job of killing myself, and that before her very eyes. She left and went to her sister's home and on the morning of the killing I purchased the revolver. *Planned Second Suicide* "I went to Margarita's home with the intention of coding it all by killing her, and this intention, when suddenly all became black before me, and I did not know what had happened, realized later that I had shot my wife and put her on the station and gave myself up."

It all happened, as he testified, because he gave Miss Lillian Dobbins, 1215 North Carolina Avenue, a whole ten or two now, he told the Magistrate in Northwestern Police Court, and according to Mrs. Dobbins he will need more than that. Smith was arrested Sunday on the above lady's complaint that he had been charged with her testimony Smith came to call and after becoming objectionable took liberties against her will.

Anyway Smith was held for the action of the grand jury on the charge of assaulting Miss Dobbins. Was Too Kind To Officer William Johnson, 604 Smith street, smilingly told the Magistrate Monday morning that he had been kind to the office and that as a result Smith and the law got mixed up when he was making a party too rough at the home of Mrs. Lain Wilson. The magistrate gave him a chance to beat it home but later found him trying to make his escape with a pocket book he had taken from the house.

Stockton street, faced his sweetheart,iss Mary Cox, 844 N. Glimor street,in Miss Mary morning enveloped with assault, the Magistrate told him that $4.65 stood between him and the balmy spring air. "Honey, and if you want to come in, you need to be waiting to Miss Cox as she was leaving the room. "What kind of kind of money do you pay for a house, or not coming back, so GOOD BYE!" Miss Cox told the Magistrate that last year Hurley broke her arm, and that she thought she would make complaint before he broke her head in the year. He is now in the jail house.
