Captain Boosted by Friends For Berth of Colonel. New York, Dec. 24.—(Afro Bureau) — Leading colored politicians throughout the State of New York are now again agitating the very lively issue of a full fledged colored regiment for the State as prescribed by the law and a memorial is being prepared by some New York City civic organizations to be forwarded to Governor Smith urging its organization. The 369th Infantry, formerly the 15th Regiment of New York City, is being pointed to as a fully equipped colored regiment with newly built modernized quarters, located in the colony designated for Herbert. The regiment does not meet the requirements of the law as it is commanded mostly by white officers with a white colonel. This particular feature is said to be very distantable to the better classes of colored people of New York city particularly, and those of the state in general. The success of this city, one of the strongest political and civic organizations in the State, has on a former occasion called the public's attention the day before that the erection of the new armory at the time and the State Executive promised to give it his attention Fillmore Is Urged Colonel Charles W. Fillmore, the ranking colored officer of the State is being urged by prominent colorado leaders to defend the ambassador of the regiment. Advocates of a colored regiment regard Colonel Fillmore in the best and most likely way to defend the nation, because of his unusual military qualifications and gentlemanly bearing. Colonel Fillmore-is of a very refined western (Ohio) colored who bear the mark of aristocracy. Barred from West Point, he nevertheless, possesses both the ability and record of a soldier of that insti- Served In Spanish War was during the events successive to the Maline and the subsequent declaration of war with Spain that he offered his services to his Government. President McKinney sent his man, the Lieutenant of the 9th U. S. Infantry. He served with this organization during the Spanish War, and he commanded Generals Lawton and Wood first as a battalion adjutant and then as a company commander. He occupied a position in the U. S. Treasury Department at Washington, after which he secured a transfer to the Army. When Colonel Hayward was designated by Governor Whitman to organize the 15th New York Infantry, he was commissioned senior commander. He served with it in most of its engagements overseas. During the battle of the Champagne he was cited for bravery by General Petain, commanding the Croix de Guerre. For the remainder of the war he served on the staffs of General Balleau, the 9th Division, and Col. Roberts, of the 37th U. S. Infantry. Returning to civil life again, Col. Fillmore was appointed an auditor for the New York State Income Tax Bureau, where he held the position of business management, efficiency and economy, a rare quality much sought for by commercial enterprises. Started by Southermorns The town in reality started by colored people from the South who became residents of New York. It is said that colored tax payers in the South do not tolerate colored soldiers under command of white officers. Charles Fillmore was in line for the position soon after the passage of the bill calling for a colored regiment, but refused because of white casualties over some of the colored menaces.

Has Donated Liberally To Many Charitable Causes John T. Gibson, wealthy Philadelphia theaterist, contributed $500,000 to Morgan College drive for $300,000 which closed last Thursday night. Former Morgan Scholar Mr. Gibson, a former Morgan student, was the principal city, has admired a fortune from his two theatrical enterprises, the Standard and Dunbar Theatres. Leaving some years ago for Philadelphia, the magistrate conducted the foray long period. When a law was passed requiring small picture houses playing vaudeville to pay an equal fee with the larger theatres, Mr. Gibson took over the Standard on behalf and his management transformed the former failure into a money-maker. The gift of Mr. Gibson is believed to be the largest of any single colored benefactor to the college. It was requested by the donor that the $5000 be used to found a chair in business to bear the cost of the founder. It is remembered that Mr. Gibson recently contributed the Dunbar theatre for a rally for the benefit of the Uplift Industrial School for Orphan Boys of Philadelphia, as he had done in the previous presentation. At this occasion Mr. Gibson contributed $500 to the school. Thousands of colored actors and house employees are yearly given employment at the Gibson house.

Photoplay Proves Women Deadly An example of the "deadliness of the species," is given in "The Scarlet Lily." A first National picture starring Katherine MacDonald, which is coming to the Dunbar Theatre Friday, January 16th, will be Kipling wrote his famous poem, "The Female of the Species is More Deadly Than the Male," he aroused a storm of protest from the women of the world, who vehemently denied the sentiment expressed by him. The famous writer intended the aphorism as an indictment of femininity, the fact remains that womankind without exception viewed it as a slur on their sex and they did not hesitate to express their opinion of its author. Nevertheless, many records that indicate the "female of the species" really was more deadly than the sterner sex. She has won battles, she has been responsible for the overthrow of governments and her influence has made itself felt in many world-starring events. The "female of the species" rules the world as a truism in reality. Perhaps woman is unaware of the power she wields. Dora Mason has been pursued by a wealthy roue. It was impossible for her to discourage him, and finally he murevered her into a position to outsiders appeared compromising. Although the girl extricated herself from the predicament into which circumstances had led her, she made a mistake. The time came when it appeared that he would be able to wreck her happiness, ruin her husband's career and overturn an election. Then, Dora Mason proved that "the female of the past was the female in reality, by wading into the fight and routing her Nemesis in a decisive manner.

REVIEW OF 1924 SEASON SHOWS ACTORS MADE PROGRESS Saturday. December 27 REVIEWING 1924 CONCERT AND STAGE SEASON Progress Marked In All Departments Of Theatre And Concert Stage. BANNER FINANCIAL YEAR Prospects For 1925 Loom Very Bright For A Duplication. Bs RENNARD WILLIAMS A review of the theatrical season of 1924 causes one to wonder how the cover accomplishments of the year and to grow decidedly optimistic about the years to come. PETER Hayes and Others Negro thespians and associated artists Bennard Williams once for progress that was not surpassed by any other Broadway the goal of every aspirant has been achieved, and to paraphrase the immortal Shakesepear, "Andenice can dance," were entrusted with acquiring, with the intent of fattening of the purse of the "nummers." Roland Hayes duplicated all previous European successes, entering music's birthland. Germany, under the hand of the composer and prejudice, brought the audiences and critics of Deutschland to their feet with acclimatations to tribute, America, too, has warmed toward the theater, and he presses him musically hilled him as the superactive artist he is. Composer - Bands - Clubs Julius Kleidson, the baritone, Florence Cole-Tallent, Clarence Cameron White, Harry Burleigh, and Nathan Diet have increased and conceived as concert art by composers and as concert artists. The male singing organizations; the textura, of New York, Peerless, Alphian, and Postoffice of Washington, have contributed much to this important visit. The visit of the Virgin Island Band established them as a highly trained organization and made them a recognized unit enlisted in the United States Navy, an unprecedented step for Negroes. The Mitte Monarch Band, of New York, by capturing first prize in competition with other cracks in Plittsburgh, self-self in the foot of similar groups. Broadway Successes Florescence Mills and the "Dixie to Broadway" Company were literally what the title said, and demonstration of the talent, thought, to the extent of paying a 1440 "top." Another significant departure was that "Dixie to Broadway" was not on the big street and "click." Indications are that the piece will enjoy a long and commutative "run." Indications are that the piece will succeed in "Shuffle Along," enjoyed a long engagement on the "Great White Way," and was embassied in New York. Gotiumites are pleased to term that little portion of the U. S. A. that beyond its sacred territory, to the pretentious musical comedy, after a triumphant tour of the country showed before base New York, and made a triumphant return. Johnny Hudgins is the year's comedy sensation, and after he has severed the strands of legal red tape challenging him is assured fame and Dramatic Artists As an exponent of the drama, Paul Robson has aligned himself beside the Great Giltman as another brilliant actor, both as star of the "Emperor Jones" and "All God's Chillen". Mr. Robson and his illustrious predecessor, Neo-Nazis legitimate theatrical case, James Lowes as "Uncle Tom", in a revival of the immortal play of the same name hit in the Triangle Playera production, "The Demi-Virgin", headed by Miss Meyen Ellis, was a revelation in the handling of force, always bold and edgy. Eilish Waters, a graduate from the "blues academy", is the outstanding figure among those who have achieved "big time". Ashton Stovens and other ominent reviewers awarded her a crown that assures her fortune for acts on the larger circuits have been re-engaged and continue to please. Columbia and Mutual Burlesque attend the premiere of Fletcher Henderson and Wilbur Swedman, with their bands, stand second to none as dancers and vaudeville attracts. T. O. B. A. Players The Dudley - Carnouche - Mitchell Company seems to have the edge on most of the companies that are involved. As units, it is unanimous that the We Got It company has the lead of all companies introduced this season. Whitney and Tutt, Miller and Slater, Irving Meyer, Benbow, Allen Tucker, and the colored circuits contributing the refinement of what was, before their engagement, a pretty deplorable situation, with his partner "Boots" Hope, the biologist, the Guineas Brothers, aerobots, Bonnie Bickel Drew and Sweetie May, Brown and Brown, the white-wind dancers, and the singles and doubles all supplemen and raise the standard. These better class acts and groups all point to their proper conception of entertainment values. "Follow Me" and "Till I stand out above the mediocre ones." The Ida Anderson and Eythem Preer units of Latitude Players have one much to stimulate interest in the game by playing the houses been heavily received of the T. H. B. A. these folk have to. There is yet much duplication of old familiar material used on the small time and "King Smut" needs dethronement. Schools and Colleges College and other student groups are guard, Hampton, Lincoln, Wil- berforce, and Wellesley. All less are steadily contributing to statistic upift.

BY SORIP New York City is the mother of American theatricals. From Broadway to American drama. In Harlem—that portion of Harlem that we have named The Great Black Way. Negro vaudeville inds herself a shrine. Many theaters, several new to the colored theatregroups of this city, come like eager pilgrims to this shrine carrying with them either the gifts or gifts beheaded on the artist's. It is out of the group that graced the footlights during the eventual year of 1914 that we will strive to select the best of the works with course exclude Bert Williams and the late Aida Walker, Rosamond Johnson and S. H. Dudley for they belong to the major group. No vaudeville singer before the color-combination of range, dramatic power, theatre public possesses such aer, and sweetness of tone. She is without doubt, one of the major singers. Second, the Musical Byrons. Here is the greatest musical novelty in vaudeville. These artists have an appreciation of artistic setting that is lacking in the majority of such acts. Third, the Blank Sisters. As interpreter, pop artist Melissa Blanks be nearer the artistic goal than any of their rivals. (Miss Oscaela Blanks, is now Mrs Leonard Harper of the well known team of Harper and Blanks—Theatrical Fourth, the "Chocolate Drops," for an act composed of ten or more with singing and refined comedy, gives us the best that Harlem has seen. King Pitt, the "Little Feather," Sinclair White. Miss White has the gift of embbling emotion with technique, transforming her violin interpretation interesting vaudeville entertainment. Sixth, Miss Blanche Deas, Miss Deas is a singer who makes a better impression as a single, than a boisterous greater sweetness than range, and her interpretations are usually of the sentimental ballad variety. Seventh, Miller and Lyles, in their sketch "Blessed with Ignorance." These young comedians, who appeared in the lowest forms of Negro life in a happier and more sympathetic fashion than any on the current stage. Eighth, Cooper and Smith interpret the lowest forms of Negro grotesque that fosters the ambition to be "sports" the versatile song writer and comedian are rigidly versatile. Ninth, Fiddler and Shelton. This is best of all colored comedians. Hurry up, the hapiest portrayer of the "chop suey" of Oriental in the race. Tenth, Blondy Robinson. In eccent, comedy no performer, save Allie Gilligan. Hurry up, the hapiest portrayer of the "chop suey" of Oriental in the race. Tenth, Blondy Robinson. In eccent, comedy no performer, save Allie Gilligan. Hurry up, the hapiest portrayer of the "chop suey" of Oriental in the race. MOST POPULAR BRANCH Will vaudeville endure? Today it is the most popular branch of all Negro theatricals: but unless a keen pruning knife is used, vaudeville will do more to ruin the Negro stage than even the cabaret. The middleman is more at fault than either the performer or the audience. It is true the brazenly suggestive stuff offered by the cheap type of actor will receive rowdy applause, but careful observers will soon discover that there are only a "buker's dozen" using that method. The middleman usually cares for nothing save sensationalism that will attract a crowd to the box-office, or if he is supplying white houses he nurses a desire to force a lower standard on his colored contingent. Readers of the above article, both professional and laymen, will recognize the clearness of this writer's vision. His prophecies and some of the bad conditions he cites are as true today as they were 10 years ago. THEATRICAL EDITOR. MYSTERY SHROUDS SUICIDE OF MAN Charles Wagner, 42, 234 N. Strieter street, was found dead with a bullying at his side in his room Sunday night by patrolmen from the Southwestern Police District. Investigation revealed the fact that Wagner was killed by suicide, according to a bolted inquiry by Coroner Horizon. Rumor Follows Mystery Albany police is clouded in some mystery, residents and friends close to him declare that a domestic affair preceded the tragedy. Just what acts led up to the tragedy, however, could not be ascertained. SNOW STORM TOO MUCH FOR ORNEL Yesterday afternoon in the midst of the snow storm a small boy was literally blown into the Call office. A husky little voice piped from a table and asked to use the telephone. The following conversation calmed the office: "Mother?" "Send a taxicab 'cause I'm tired of walking through the snow." Argument for a minute. "You take me to see Santa Claus?" "All right."

MICHEAUX ANSWERS HIS PHILLY CRITICS MICHEAUX ANSWERS HIS PHILLY CRITICS The management of the Royal Theatre, Philadelphia, is to be commended for the "breaks" that it has given Oscar Michaex, the film producer. All of the producer's latest pictures have been screened and nearly a private screening of Charles W. Chestnut's "House Behind the Cedars" was given. Despite the gloomy views of the pessimists and attempts of other "knockers", Michaex has friends "at the door" to help him to put his splendid efforts over. To those who attempted to "blast" "Birthright", Mr. Michaex said in part: "unless he had connection with the actual production of motion pictures it was fully impossible to realize the tremendous scope which the motion picture embraces. The completed, and all its varied forces which picture a minute replica of other movies." That the nastery of the art of production is no small attainment, and successes by the most active encouragement and financial backing. Colored producers are pathfinders in a new difficult. He is limited in his themes, but he is able to encourage success in obtaining cuts and in his financial resources. Thus if the race has any pride, it is well to interst itself and morally to encourage success. The criticized 'Birthright' in Philadelphia the producer says that he feels that they were either unaware of his aims or unaware of his role with Mr. Michelau says that he has always endeavored to make his pictures show the truth, to lay before the race a coercionist iniquity with the producer's true situation will react as a stimulus for our advancement. A splendid tribute is paid the Royal Society of Art of Production the producer says: 'If I have been retarded by the unjust criticism of my race, it has been amply made up by the success from the beginning, has encouraged the production of colored photoplay often in the face of burning criticism.'

Theatres For Sale Washington, D. C., Dec. 22—Two of the largest moving picture theaters in the city have made overtures to prospective buyers for the purchase. The present slump is believed to be responsible for the desire to unload. Ada Cromman, and various little theater groups are steadily and surely helping achieve perfection. Europe has backpedaled in Nigeria. Europe has backpedaled and he has now moved a secure foundation across the pond.

The all colored play which was produced at the Bjou three years ago was suggested by the officials of the Provincetown Theatre, but could not assist as other contracts prevented.

INSURANCE-THE BUSINESS LIFEBOAT Insurance funds are perhaps the most helpful funds in the whole range of industrial and commercial activity, capital or even deplete it for running expenses rather than risk it in any investment. But insurance money must work, be compounded, for reason or because insurance in some form is the principal foundation of commercial credit, the taxation and restriction of insurance measures, the agent understanding rather than political prejudice. With 43 new legislatures coming in, insurance measures to be considered, there is necessity for combating foolish and ill-considered measures which interfere with sound business policies, the taxation and obligation or individual saving. Insurance requires the individual to save for himself, and protect himself, makes private conservation and not public waste, its creed. it puts: a premium on individual independence in encouragement miss irresponsibility. *Insurance builds up a tangible fact available for those who will fail and save today: communism. gibbly promises to underwrite any. fantastic shortage for any or all its people, without the effect on -society. e. whole.* Insurance legislation needs to be considered in the light of a business acronym, sacrificio to avert possible mergericacy and as an industrial anchor for the whole system of honest credits, not the largest target for the professional destroyer.

NEGRO IMMIGRANTS PERCENTAGE HOLDS NEGRO IMMIGRANTS PERCENTAGE HOLDS Larger Percentage of Negro Allens Wildlife Reserves Strengthens Race Preston News Service African (black) aliens, contained in the immigrant labor group seeking employment in this country, has increased during the period 1920 to 1928 to over one per cent, as compared with the five years prior to the World War. During 1910-1914, the total number of immigrant aliens admitted was 2,210,481, a yearly average of 442,986. Of these numbers there was a total of 1,969,000 immigrants, a yearly average of 1,973, or about one-half of one per cent. Seeking significant conclusions, we face the following indisputable facts: the total incoming immigrant alien drop from 2,120,481 during 1910-1914 to 578,153 during 1920-1924; but the Negro content, during that comparative period, was 622, and while it fell in quantity, its percentage jumped from one-half of one per cent in the ratio of immigration to Portuguese possession of the West Coast of Africa, furnished the largest number of admissions. continuation of this trend revealed that immigration in this region restricted immigration in force, and American labor holding its own, it is apparent that the rise of native Negro labor may continue its onward trajectory. A reduction in the inflow of foreign labor, with a larger percentage of Negro aliens, means a reduction in the number of workers, which is of a lower standard and lesser efficiency than American labor. The many helpful programs, which we now bring into put effect by, image 1, are now being used to protect that Negro labor needs ample protection and assistance; are slowly building up a lasting foundation; the purity of the work in this country upon the same firm footing; that all other labor has so long been doing that truly constructive and should be encouraged of these efforts to put their shoulders to the industrial wheel in such a way as to make the task one of far-reaching benefits to all concerned.

But instead of saying so, gives it to the defender and from it, draws irresistible conclusions that the AFRO is the foremost race paper. That is clever; and more than that, it matters. It appreches praise from others, though it may feel that it should have received greater praise. It would not be fair and reasonable praise from others, not included in the "dozen deluxe" to destructively criticise Mr. Gordon. He did not set himself up as a criterion, but merely made his choice; and now we know that Many shall be called but few shall be. Moreover, Brother Gordon is in better position to make an estimate of the colored press than the average of the press. He is the successor of Boston Post, one of his foremost dailies and among the best money making newspaper properties of the country, who succeeds him as editor of the, the Boston Chronicle—though I never met him—was widely quoted and is highly rated by less arbitrary critics than he concedes.

Murphy, editor and publisher of the PRO AMERICAN and himself a veteran of the Great Civil War, had this to say in a news dispatch to the AFRO after attending a reunion of Union soldiers in Indianapolis in the 1920s. "And when one thinks of the fact that their (Union Soldiers) ranks are being decimated by the thousands of men they have been killed in the year but a short time before these reunions will be a thing of the past." SIX REGIMENTS ENLISTED Pondering over the above prophetic words it is timely that an investigation be made into the numbers of servicing members colored among the states of Maryland, the State of Maryland, The Fourth, Seventh, Ninth, Nineteenth, Tenth, and Thirty-Ninth Regiments of the authorities of Maryland or recognized as Maryland troops, nevertheless they were essentially Maryland troops, to be recruited and organized under the direct authority of the United States. These regiments rendered good service and suffred severe losses. They always regarded themselves as Maryland troops, and were proud of their name. COLORED TROOPS RECORD A very large number of colored people were recruited in Maryland by the Navy and were organized and accented to other states. A considerable number of colored people also shipped in the United States Navy during the Civil War. A large proportion of these enlistments in the army and navy were subsequently accredited to the queen of England, the official records of the War and Navy Departments of the United States of America, from the year 1851 to the year 1865. There were 5,114 colored Maryland troops. NAVAL AFFEN No separate record is kept of the number of sailors enlisted, but it is sufficient to say that the number was large. The history and records of the sailors who fought for the Union in the Great Civil War is one of which Negroes should feel proud. The severe losses of the troops were, above the average of the regimental losses in the war, had to contend with prejudice when time and time with their own good conduct, alone could allay, they appreciated the ordeal through which they were passing, and not only their own countrymen, but the civilians world so good and so brave.

We think some steps ought to be taken to prevent New Years from too much trouble too too sudden, like we ought to have a HOLIDAY in between to give us time to rest up. There was a lot of JEWELRY we got any, we drew our own conclusion from the fact that the 8 and 10 cent stores announce that they did a record breaking business. We also summarize that there were a lot of people hanging around the JUNK pile, just before Christmas. Christmas. Always gives us a chance, 10, think about others, of how we can help some of us ever get, but we met one philanthropic Guy who wanted to break up the Empty Stocking and be enough EMPTY stockings without starting a Club to empty them. His partner in the Crisesade said they didn't kick when they pulled the child out of the room, they start emptying the children's stockings, that's carrying the thing too far. We met another Bird who said he didn't send any post cards this year but sent them by long distance telephone, and then REVERSED the calls. This may sound like a lot of nerve, but it was nothing compared to his brother, who plucked the birds he could.ind and sent them C, O, D. We think the worse case of where familiarly breeds, contempt is when you recognize a cheap pet to give to one of your friends last year. There is a lot of hypocrisy, practiced around Christmas time, people go out wishing everybody a NEBY Christmas. They care about you have a merry Christmas or not. Then New Years is just as bad, for some Folks come around early and tell you that you don't look like you will LIVE to see another one. Another JOY KILLER is the Ginko who cheer you up by telling you all the Christmas that is going on, the dealer MARRIED. Quite a, few people had trees in their homes this year, and then some people had trees that is if you wore a WATCHED too closely. One happy husband took houses of tree so small that his wife told him to stop dragging in weeds on the trees. He met a Bozo down town trying to buy a a shoe tree, he said he needed it for thought he would be cheaper to RAISE his own. Take our advice and have a good time during the Holidays because you can buy trees from the Stores where you get your presents from are going to the 365 days, so have a good time while you can.

"By Sanction of Law" The tragedy of a Southern aristocratic family which opposes marriage of their daughter to a col- ored man only to find out that it has colored blood. WHAT YOU HAVE MISSED Lida Lauriatine, daughter of an old and wealthy Carolina white family is sent to a finishing school in Boston, where she falls in love with a racey youth, man Bennett. Their love affair is brought to the attention of the school's headmistress after a storming session refuses to intone. Other efforts to force Lida to give up her home under the injustices he undertakes a trip south to his consent of the father and bring home his Brigade in the injustices heaped upon Negroes of the South at first hard. His witnesses is lynching or two Negroes failed accusations of Lida's father and brother locks her in her room to keep her from leaking into her lover. A neighbor suitor for Lida's hand (Ma-ley) threatens to lynch Bennett, when he comes as a guest, suddenly. (Now go with the story.) "Own land. Lord, they don't own their souls. Can't own anything. They get such low pay, and have such a hard time paying up their debts from one year to the other that that's all they can do. Work, eat, live and die. Eat, work, live and die. That's all they do. When we get tired of that we try the city but that's hard too." "Why can't you plant enough land to make a surplus from year to year and thus get something ahead?" "You can do that in some places but you can't in this county nor in Truro County.—That's the next county west to this. That's a bad, bad county.—Why I know a colored family that lived on a white man's place and couldn't make a living—was in debt all the time. Finally he got another place in another county and was moving away. The white man heard of it, rode after him, met the man with his goods on a wagon. Got in front of him, pulled a gun and made the family turn back to the old house." "Why didn't your friend go on to the new place?" "Go on. Lordy. If he had gone on him" a gone on plain into eternity. That white man would a' shot up that white man's head a' shot up that a' shot that family to death then claimed he was assaulted and nothing would a' been done about it. "Colored folks have go' no rights of color, no rights of young folks get restless and go away. The old folks, born here, are afraid to move for fear of worse. They stay. They rent on shares or lease and the shares never run up enough to pay and so the leases never run out." "You don't mean to say the white landlords cheat." "Don't cheat. The fig- ures never run right and the land never produces enough. You never heard the saying, 'oughts a ought, and a figurer a figurer.' The figurer never runs for the nigger. Well, that's about the way things run in the country. If a black man questions the figures of his landlord, that black man is impudent and must bullet or the rope. What can we do?" Sensing the hopelessness of the question and the futility of an answer, Bennett remained silent. They had just passed through a swampy stretch of roadway bordered by a thick growth of gallow berry bushes, when suddenly there smote their ears a most unearthly scream. It seemed not like one in pain but more in fright and horror. Bennett reached over to the front seat and touched the driver on the shoulder. They were just at a bend in the road which hid them from a further view. The car was throttled down and was but barely creeping along, both men listening for the sound. Again the scream. This time it sounded closer. At the same time there sounded as if in answer a long, low, half bellow, half groan, rising to a crescendo of a siren fire alarm and then dimishing till it ended in something like the distant roar of a lion. Bennet began to feel creepy. He thought of hyenas and other wild animals, then recalled that he had never heard of any such inhabiting this section of the country. He reached for the revolver, Dr. Tansey had forced him to carry. The black chauffeur, frightened at first, regained his composure, turned in his seat and whispered: Before Bennet could reply, again came the screams of fright, like that of a frightened woman. Bennet that came from the house, caught by the man, and was being devoured. They had just turned the curve of the road, the machine that was coming from the house them. In the middle of the road stood an elderly white woman, a bonnet thrown back from her head. Her eyes horrorstriken with fright. While she put the roadway a young alligator, about seven feet long, jaws wide open, showing rows of ferocious teeth, she pushed by its feet. Every time the woman turned to retreat, the reptile opened its jaws wider and bowed. When she left the road on which it had been surprised and beat the road into dust clouds with its tail. The woman was running, and she was near the machine come up behind her. Before Bennet realized what the chauffeur was doing, the latter had stepped from the car and was seeked by the police. He frightened the reptile from the road. Bennet, however, noted a towing rope in the bottom of the car and thinking he would like to have a live specimen to take with him, stepped from the car roof. The woman was just about to scream again when Bennet's voice sounded in her ear. "Keep still, we'll save you." The chauffeur was returning with a broken skine, Bennet, rope in hand climbed a nearby tree, whose branches overhung the road. From one branch to another he made his way across the tree, making a slipnose he slowly lewded this down in front of the alligator. The reptile's eyes were so blinded with anger that he paid no heed to Bennet. In front of him and was slowly dragged about his tail till well behind the neck of the brute. The tension was too much for the old woman and she swooped slumping to the middle of the road. Bennet's rope about the reptile's body. The alligator, seeing the motion of the woman's body falling, grew wilder and more muscular with its fall, at the same time bellowing fiercely. The bellow however, was shortened as Bennet tightened on the rope and lifted the brute weight of the man, so that his feet and tail were touching. The bellow became a scream as the reptile fought and struggled with this new creature, which to choke him in the dashing, swirling fight, the suddenness of the capture turned the bellow into screams that were half coughs. Bennet was almost to the ground from his lofty perch.

Throw the rope "round the tree." He ruckled to do this when he caught the advice. Wrapping his legs about the trunk of the limb, wrestler fashion, he fouled. Finally he managed to life the alligator from the ground and tie the rope securely to the limb. Panting and gasping after his struggle he returned, grounding himself was justaining consciousness when he reached her. The alligator was twisting, turning and struggling wildly, free himself. The alligator swung the alligator swinging, closed her eyes again, shouting: "Kill it! Kill it! Kill it!" but she refused to rise. Repeating the Bennet tried to lift her to her feet. Bennet was still trying to sooth her when the chauffeur returned from the car with Bennet's revolver. Joining close up, he whispered a shout the revolver at a point between the shoulders and fired twice. At the second shot the alligator's struggles diminished a small wound from the wounds made by the bullets. "Too bad. I wanted him alive." was all Bennet said as the chauffeur returned him the revolver. Gently the latter lifted the woman in his arms and bore her to the car, dispatching the chauffeur for some water from the stream they had crossed. Bennet moistened his handkerchief when the man returned and gently laved the her. At the opening of her eyes and woman's forehead. This soon revived returning memory, with a smothered scream she threw her arms about Bennet and began to cry. She was soon soothed to calmness, however, by Bennet, who convinced her that the reptile was dead. "Ugh!" she shuddered as calmness returned. "That's the first time I ever met one of the things on the road and I'll never come this road again. I never knew them to come so far from the river before." "They come out to lay their eggs," offered the chauffeur in explanation. "Yes, so I've heard, but never met one before." "You must have frightened him as much as he did you," smiled Bennet, reassuringly, as the woman clung to his hand. "Do you feel well enough to travel?" he asked solicitously. "If you do, I'll take you to your home and set you down." "G bless you, and bring you a good wife." the old woman replied. "It's Sally Gorton that thanks you, Boy. Old Sally Gorton. These are night onto 1925 years now the knives knows me—I live just beyond here— "All right, Mrs. Gorton. I'll take you home." "Thank me. But don't call me Ms. Gorton. Aint no one called me that since my sparking days. Call me Aunt Sally. Everybody does. I like it. We're all neighbors in these parts and to them all I'm plain Aunt Sally. I like it. We're all to them Aunt Sally. All right Aunt Sally." humoring her. "If you're Aunt Sally to all then you'll be Aunt Sally to me. Do you live far?"雾雾 had now taken his place at the wheel and Bennet stepped into the car: "Couple of miles ahead—Used to live on Park Lauriston's place— lived there good many years." Mrs. Gorton was now: her self-confidence returning quickly as she sat by the good looking youth at her side and prattled away like a young girl, in her hospitable, open-hearted "Ah, you know the Lauriston's then?" he asked trying to hide his confusion by making the question clear. "Know them—know them. I know the whole kit and kaboodle of them known them since their bib and tucker days. Old Park Lauriston grew up together. Say I know them!" Then turning to look shewled at the young man at her side, she asked: "Youaint coming together, right? Well go back." Park Lauriston aint going to let nobody but John Marley marry his Lida. Bennet's face flushed more as the young man looked at her. That's all settled. They're two proud families and the old men have fixed it up so's Lida and the young John can fit off together. "What's the latter?" Won't they let the young lady choose for herself? "No much, they won't. Seems Lida went North last year and got herself a job." They're all against the girl. She's practically a prisoner till she makes up her mind to marry Young John. They're a cursed lot, with all their "What do you mean?" Bennet bristled defensively, surprised out of his grip. "I am not sure," he grand. "I chanced to meet the young woman, in the North and found her to be exceedingly ladylike." "Do you call, are you?" Mrs. Gorton asked. "That was my plan. I chance to be passing through, and knowing that she lived in this vicinity thought I'd call. 'Well, you won't be welcomed. I know—park Lauriston's too proud to let any strangers call on his child. Besides, I tell you they've fixed it up for Young John to marry her." I thought of those things here in the South. Thought they allowed the girl to coose," Bennet commented. "Huh, you don't know the Lauristons. Though they live in the country, they pride over, either—True they've got a lot of old names in their families. But they've got other things too, and Saturday, December 2 one of them's Park Lauriston." "Evidently you don't like the family," "Why should I? Don't Park Lauriston throw me off his land last year. Me, an old woman, who befriends his family and nurses his children at home, throws me off the ground for them. No. I put a curse on the land. Let Lida marry young Marley. When they're married I'll tell them what or that they'll cure them all." "The car was gliding along quietly and came to a clearing off the road at the back of which nestled a small smoke suggesting that the evening air was chilly. Chimney area was in process." "That's my house," Mrs. Gorton inicated. They turned into the roadway leading up to it and jumped up to the tree. They came back behind a lattice covered with roses. The sun was setting in a large roll ball through the trees, while off to the east, over the woods darkened. There was a sound of cutting wood in distance, with a rich voice poising at evening time in tempo with each blow, as the echoes carried both from the forest hatch across the cotton fields. "Better come in and eat with us. Not much of a table but what I have you welcome to. Besides, you can eat here. If there is where you are going" invited Jarton, and debated whether to go to Lalita's little cottage behind the rooftop home as was his intention or to accept the invitation and remain with this old woman's family. He thought about the limitations and concluded that perhaps in the circumstances might he embarrass for Lala. He decided to delay the visit till the morning. "Thank you. If it won't put you to better," he responded. "I was not going to Barnwell, however. Are you going to Barnwell?" "Yes, you. I lived to long at among animals to let a thing that disturb me for long. I'm not city bed like your women. I'm not doil." She answered in manifest pride in her right. With that she stepped from the automobile and led the way into the little house. Summer twilight in the South Island was a time of the day and seasickness time for romance an dreams and castle building. Bennet stood in the gateway also trellised over with nice bushes and looked toward the house, which was the sun dropped behind the trees. From as far as the eye could see on one hand, there seemed to be an unending forest, with tall long ceilings and like giants over the remaining world of vegetation. Below them, far below, were the oak and other trees whose leaves were redding. Across the house, the tops of the pines and oak were still red and golden green where the sun's rays raysed from them. Long yellowish rays of sunbeams reached far up in the trees at play world. From far over the fields came the chattering of sparrows at their angelic service. Off in a creeps of woods a mocking bird was watching straight into the sky from their single armament, an ambitious pillow. From a farm house could be heard the bleat of a sheep answered by the hurge call of a call or the deep bay of a bloodhound in the distance. Bleat "What a wonderful place!" he explained enthusiastically, his right arm smart, and wired his right arm which she watched the expression of admiration grow. "You stay here, long, you'll leave," she added, she faced the song of the sunny place he explained Bennet "It's a delightful country." "Yes, we famous for beauty. Pretty horses, pretty women. It can be enthralled in. A land of beauty." Bennet was still under the spell. "It is enchanted—and a priestess here—(modified from Land) is waiting to be claimed by some prized and freed from her age of a father. Commented Mrs. Gordon, she thought you didn't like the Larson family." "I don't like Park. He did me wrong. But I've not been against the girl. She's like her mother the mother. She's not like her mother the mother for that poor child now, just because she cast eyes over the Laurenton fence at some strange boy in the North." "I ain't grit-grit—Do you know it be a gift? Bennet asked. "I'm not sure. But what other thing could a poor girl be mixed in that would make her father pet her up like a jailbird? the woman said. "Oh, that can't be! That can't be! Bennet offered, his heart paused in the thought that Lida was perhaps suffering for him. "You're the Young John Martine is there all the time and the poor girl can't go anywhere without either Eileen Laurention or he trailing after Bennett's heart was agitated in the way Lida must be suffering. He was glad now that he did not continue his journey to the house. He determined however, to visit in the morning at his account, and if her love had not hesitated to take her away immediately.

New York City, Dec. 26.—(Afro Bureau)—When offered $250,000 if she would not defend her husband's annulment suit, Mrs. Leonard Kip Rhinelander, the five weeks' bride of the young Leonard Kip Rhinelander, emphatically refused, it is reported today. Two men who described themselves as managers of the vast Rhinelander realty holdings in this city, visited Mrs. Rhinelander. Mount Vernon home of a girl friend, four days after her husband had left her. "Would you be content to agree to the annulment of the marriage if you were paid $250,000 in cash? one of the few," Mrs. Rhinelander with an indignant and prompt answer, replied: This episode will form one of the several remarkable chapters in the Rhinelander marriage complications, to be discussed in the next installment or the demand for $1,000 a month allmoney and $10,000 counsel for allmoney outcome, to seek legal mitigation, in the action for allmoney and counsel fee have been served upon Leon R. Jacobs, attorney for the Rhinelander estate and young Mrs. Brooks, a sister of Mrs. Rhinelander, whose husband, Rex, was a lawyer, relished to give an important testimony in the case. Their six-year old son is also a lawyer, and she also gave a favorite testimony to Mrs. Rhinelander. Mr. and Mrs. George Jones, parents of the Kip bride, will maintain the marriage, while she will be wed to Rex Rhinelander, rejected proposals of marriage from two other young men, each of whom was financially able to maintain her in an attractive home.

PASTOR TICKLED THE PALMS OF HIS PARISHONERS Congregation of N. C. Episcopal Church Dwindled From 150 To Six RAPE CHARGE LAID Respected Member Says He Ferociously Hugged And Kissed Her ... Ashville, N. C. Dec. 20.—(Citizens News Service)—Rev. J. R. Jones, rector of St. Matthias P. E. Church, was released under bond after indictment of the Grand Jury last week on the charge of rape. The plaintiff is Mrs. Psyche Morrow, 40 Gouger street. Mrs. Morrow's accusations were laid before three officers of the Fussohunt August this year, a two husband and a wife, sworn out for the arrest of the minister; the officials of the Dicees urging the minister to stop the arrest that time but allow the Ecclesiastical Court to handle the matter, providing the Standing Committee of the Court with evidence, should do it of sufficient importance to pass on to the court. Court Soon to Meet This, however, was done in September and it is reported by reliable authorities that the court is soon to be found guilty, he will be unbroken and immediately relieved forever of all duties pertaining to the priesthood in the Episcopal Church. In this frenchish crime occurred in May of this year just before the rector left the city to deliver the commencement address at St. Augustine School in Paris, where he haps a man of 160 pounds, while Mr. Morrow weighs less than 100 pounds. She says on leaving her house the man immediately forcibly punished, armed with a hugged and attempted to kiss her. Backed Against Bed She was backed against the foot of the bed, and there the attempt at criminal assault took place. The woman stalked by the minister hearing the footsteps of a neighbor who came to visit the house. Mrs. Morrow states that the minister's clothing was disarranged and he was attacked to her. After the attack Mrs. Morrow had to be confined to bed under the care of her physician. The story is one of many related by respectable women of the city who have been treated in like manner by the rector. Five women have made sworn affidavits of others are willing to do likewise. From South Carolina Rev. Jones came to Asheville three years ago from Columbia, South Carolina, and St. Matthias Parish. The congregation numbers about 150 people, and the average of six people attend Sunday services. The choir has completely disintegrated, and the financial standing of the parish is one of complete bankruptcy; this is one of the reasons it is reported, is due to the absolute loss of respect and confidence in the ministry. Some of the younger women of the Parish have accused Jones of shaking hands with them after the ungrendelly thing doing the ungrendelly thing, making them in the palm of the hand. The members of the Parish are bribing Jones as their rector, and have positioned the Bishop to hasten the calling of the court together for the purpose of giving this man for his misconduct. Jones is married, having a wife and sons on Crescent Street, residues with them on Crescent Street. When this matter was brought to Parish, Jones was advised to resign the rectorship. This he agreed to, and he was given two months' salary. After a week's deliberation he changed his mind and the matter out in the church sport.

IS YOUR HAIR SHOP Does it break off or Have you scalp dis MARY HARRIS The Afro American—South's Biggest and Best Weekly DECLARES RACE HAS CEASED TO BE 'GOOD NEGRO' White Investigator In Current Issue of "Mercury" States His Views. The "hat in hand" Negro, illiterate, servile, always with a smile on his face when he meets white folk is giving way to the belligerant type of Negro with a different type of laugh, according to L. M. Hussey, writing in the current issue of the Mercury Magazine. Mr. Hussey, a white man, was employed eight years ago as publicity agent in five cities for an organization whose purpose was to raise money for Negro uplift. How much has the new influential people, black and white, in these cities, write articles favorable to race relations for the daily press and prepare the way for the solicitors who The Old Crowd Part of my official job was to obtain from colored presets, editors of the book, a copy of Moors plus expressions of opinion upon the charisma of other prominent Moors plus expressions of opinion upon the charisma of other prominent Moors plus expressions of opinion upon the charisma of this vale of tears as the black man passed through it, a less rigorous requirement, and a more elaborate words of gratitude for which I reached them viva voca and by suave and eloquent gestures. They reached me with the presence of soe dark clerkman and remembering freshly his mellifluous words of wisdom, and that the end of the so-called race problem was at hand, that old prejudices were dissolving, and that the apocalyptic lamb deference, was about to lie down with his white master in the lion with the apocalyptic lamb with the lion. The Good Negro Companion by an affable Confederate friend, I was walking one street in Richmond when an aged Negro in Richmond when an aged Negro rounded the curb, corpse precipitately and nearly collided with both men, mastly shuffle curbward, and began to murmur apologies like a litany, Confederate friend smiled gently, "Good morning, Uncle Joe, he said, "That's all right. Never mind. I was passed on the old darky still stood near the curb, smiling, bowing, gesturing. There, commuted my friend, I was commuted a good night." Just An Actor This the "good nigger" of the South, the nigger who in acting his mental vanities of the dominant race. It is also, albeit to a lesser degree, the nigger of higher latitude. His clawing is the protective apparatus of an outnumbered race and the mental vanities of existence do harsh for survival. It is the frustrating, disarming mask work by the white man. And, being virtually instinctive, it is highly effective. sometimes falls with dramatic consequences. It falls, at times, both. North and South, because the consciousness of men without any authentic merits a sense of perdurable and unassailable sense,敏捷 and instinctive flattery of the Ethiopian will not bring men to an enduring sense of elevation. they will on some dark, questioning begin to doubt, to fear, to doubt, to fear, to doubt, or darling street words for the observation that their results from the accidents of number higher talents. Their fears will be no longer assugged by the memory of the good nigger shuffling curly hair. Subconciously they will perceive that the black can get as much light as the white, and soil of his farm as the white, that he has a disconcerting ability, not that he has a clownishness, to get superior laughs, tunes and giggles-out of the white, to be an educational mill and come forth with baccalaureate letters tagged to his name, and that, worse, he can traifirion white women. How Lynchings Start Arrived at those intolerable facts, and he met her, gather a mob. On his dark night of perturbing revelation he does so with a certainty that he is a psychic, stalker, and the spawn of THE MOTORCYCLE WEEKLY New York City, Dec. 26.—Attachments on the rents of Barron Wilkins corner here where he operated a cafe and cabaret for a number of years, were filed in the county clerk's office last week by a hold of a third mortgage. Attachment was filed, it was claimed, due to the failure of the widow, Mrs. Carolina Sparrow-Wilkins, to meet the latest installments. Mrs. Wilkinson is said to be in a health resort in New Jersey, recovering from bronchial trouble. Barron Wilkins, well-known hotel man, was murdered by "Yellow Charleston" several months ago. At the settlement of his estate a fortune said to be between $50,000 and $100,000 went to his wife. Someone has been knocked in the head a day or two earlier, or some white woman stared at. Shorn of his sense of mastery, the hysterical white woman sat. white-inspired upikes together, the institutes, the schools, the urban leagues, the biracial programmes, the whiteness, suspiciously of the whole world. Belligerency Safer The Moor begins as I say, to function as an autonomous organism, to serve as a servility under the good nigger tradition have won for him a certain degree of military might that that place is neither very warm nor very fertile. He tends now to more mechanical tactics, but he will help to him by his belligerency be after, all the safer and more productive device, the education begin to impress him. in particulari he casts a searching eye on wars and race-rivals. He is startled to observe how seldom it is the Moor who encounters the dromon worth of the Caucasian mob. No, the riot usually begins in some ciliate strife that encounters the dromon in the homes of inoffensive and unprovocative men. When the toughest niggers enter the fray with eight-tail Icarbaw kinesis the Moor encounters for battle among the Nordes wanes. He remembers a fierce enthusiasm for the fire. He recalls how the Poach Tree street coons, a raucous, billion-event company, put up an impressible bill to the white mob down here According to he recollection the Moor "Send the white mub down here" He ponders these things. One Quarter White Since the beginning of my researches it has always imminent to me a black-maoor thought of his future on this continent. What, in his opinion, is the most important position? Upon this question I found him not lacking in prognosis, but was curiously uniform: he grounded it upon the charmingly cynical recollection of a quarter to a half white.

Whites Not Superior According to my researches, this is the genesis of lynchings and race murders, and the man's sense of authentic elevation, a temporary failure of the quasher's vantage of superiority, was genuine and not a mere product of fattery, the weapon not be the taribush, the shot in the dark, the length it would be to that most compelling subduing arm of all genuine superiority everywhere—contempt, and above all, indifference. Back of the historic mask there the nifflio shorn of it. Closer Investigation Closer investigation convinced Mr. Hussey that these "good Negroes" are of the old crowd and that the most mobful people are tired of it. He writes: "Little by little it became apparent that no one had opinions of his own, and that his opinion of the uplife was by no means so gracious as his words affirmed. But he was not a came by conviction that save for a few asses and interested job-holders, but a little patience and less respect for the white man's devices, for his betterment and for his manners and snorted. Now and then, over the Bourbon and juniper water, I found it possible to get from his manners some expression of his real view." It was a view neither gracious nor flattering.

My friend, Professor W. P. Dabney, of Cincinnati, supports it by a subtle oversvation in his estimable journal, the Union. Writing of the articles of Garvey and his Universal Negro Improvement Association, and in particular of the Association's proposed debate upon the tint of the Lord God Jehovah, the Professor says: One fact is assured: If Garvey and company decide that black is the appropriate color for God, Jesus, and the Virgin Mary, then most American citizens will become infidels and go to hell rather than worship black divhittles. The only thing black the white man loves is a woman. I invite you, gentlemen, to observe and ponder the professor's concluding sentence. It is the voice of libel? Or is the voice of prophecy?
