COOLIDGE ASKED AMERICAN RULE TO HIT SOUTH'S OF HAITIANS IS ELECTION LAW UNDER FIRE Race Congress Wants Warren Named Special Investigator Associated Negro Press New York, N. Y.—President Coulde has been urged to back up the recommendation made in his December message to Congress and in his inaugural address on law enforcement, by having the department of Justice make a thorough investigation of election conditions in the South. The President has been requested to advise Attorney General Sargent to make a complete investigation, and further to name Charles E. Warren, of Michigan, as special assistant U. S. Attorney General to take charge of the work. This request is presented in a statement by the legislature. Dr. W. A. Byrd, director of the National Race Congress, and a prominent Presbyterian minister of Jersey City, N. J. In a statement made public today by Dr. Byrd, he says the following: "The saddest defection in Constitutional government in the United States is the winking at the enforcement of the Fourteenth and Fifteenth Amendments to the Constitution. The United States Senate files into spasms about the majesty of the law when the President names a man of highest integrity for the attorney General, who would think not to believe the facts, that the Senate keeps an eagle eye on all law enforcement. Many Disfranchised "As a matter of fact, hundreds of thousands of loyal American citizens are openly distranchised in the South, and never a word against it or the law. We appropriate enforce the law. Senators spearhead of their sacred owl of office that solemnly appeal to the conscience of the nation, while their own consciences are perverted with respect to distranchement. In my opinion, there will never be a time than now to bring this subject before the American people for consideration." "Attorney General Sargent, in his first formal interview with the press, emphatically stated that he believes in law enforcement. He says that he will enforce the eighteenth amendment." We urge upon him his sacred duty of enforcing the fourteenth and fifteenth amendments. One is not any more a part of the Constitution than the other; certainly it is no less. We hope that Chancellor Warren U. U.S. Attorney General for the specific purpose of inquiring into the election laws of the South, as they affect Federal elections."

WEATHER REPORT Rain and Colder Sunrise: 5:57 a.m. Sunset: 6:30 p.m. Associated Neem Press State Department and French Government Approached Associated Negro Press New York, N. Y. - Two significant moves were made this week that bring to the fore again the question of Haiti and the American occupation of the island. One was taken in France and the other concerned itself with the dispatching of a letter to the new secretary of state, Frank Kellogg, by Joseph Mirault, correspondent of the Italian Courier. The Longest of Rights of Man, one of the most powerful organizations in France, its membership comprising 75 per cent of the French Senators and deputies. Including the leaders, demanded that the French government up the American military occupation of Haiti before the league of nations. Arbitrarily Seized The resolution says that the United States arbitrarily seized the mandate of Haiti, a nation whose sovereignty never before was questioned, that the military occupation by America has become brutal and abusive and that Haiti is unable to make its protest heard. This resolution was signed by many members of the powerful association and submitted to the executive committee session, which adopted it and sent the motion to the cabinet of Edouard Herriot, urging immediate The letter of Mr. Mirault to the American secretary of state sets forth that "during the last ten years that there has been an American occupation of the island, countless crimes have been committed in the name of our people in the country are sometimes forced to disguise themselves as cannibals and to suffer themselves thus to be photographed; that 25 high schools have been closed, and the press gagged to such an extent, that a journalist who dares to raise a voice to denounce misappropriation of public exactions of any kind will be thrown into jail where he will be subjected to kinds of suffering and humiliation. Trapped In Folding Bed Morristown, N. J. (A. N. P.)—Miss Clara King, 52 years old, was found dead of suffocation from a lying bed which closed up on her when she laid down to take a nap late Wednesday. She returned home after work for the body, fully clothed, shut in the folding-bed. Admits Illegal Operation BALTIMORE, MARYLAND SATURDAY, MARCH 28, 1925 THE SUN MOVES SAYS VIRGINIA A. M. E. PASTOR Anti-Slavery Sermon Revived By College Bred Preacher RICHMOND IS STARTLED Scripture Quoted To Bolster Argument That Earth Has Four Corners Fifty years ago the Rev. John Jasper of Sixth Mt. Zion Baptist Church stirred the whole country with a sermon, "The Sun Do Move and the Earth Am Flat." Las Sunday Richmond was again started by the Rev. James Hatcher, pastor of Third Street Bethel A. M. E. Church, who in a sermon quoted the Bible and expressed his belief in the fact that the sun does actually move and that the earth has four corners. Bey. Jasper. Ex-slave The Rev. John Jasper, however, was for 50 years a slave. His education was the most limited kind, but his successor, the Rev. Mr. Hatcher, is a graduate of Alabama State Normal School, studied at Wilberforce University and Payne Theological Seminary, taught theology and historical material under the late Booker T. Washington, at Tuskegee. Rev. Mr. Hatcher spoke from the following text: The Text "Then spake Joshua unto the Lord in the day when the Lord delivered up the Amorites before the children of Israel, Sun, stand thou still upon Gibon; and thou, Moon, in the valley of Ajalon. Sun stood still, and the moon stayed, until the people had avenged themselves upon their enemies. So the sun stood still in the midst of heaven, and hastened not to go down about a whole day. And here he said, like that before it, after it that the Lord heartened unto the voice of a man: for the Lord fought for Israel." Says Earth is Square While the Rev. John Jasper always preached his sun sermon from the text, Exodus 15.3.

DURKEE HEADS BOSTON SCHOOL OF EXPRESSION Howard University He ad Accepts Position In New England Institution Washington Hears Acceptance Was Approved By Howard Univ. Trustees Washington—The official organ of the Boston, Mass. School of Expression announces as newly elected president J. Stanley Durkee, white, who is also president of Howard University here. Washington hears the Howard Trustee Board gave Dr. Durkee permission to run the Boston institution simultaneously with his work here. The matter has been kept so secret that only a few Howard men in Washington have the information. Dr. Durkee's Statement Asked by the AFR0 for a statement, Dr. Durkee today authorized the following: "The Curry School of Expression, Boston, was founded by Dr. and Mrs. Curry, some 40 years ago. Dr. Curry was a native of Tennessee. For all these years, no colored students have attended the school. "Since the death of the founders, three years ago, the school has gone down until now there are but 37 students, as I recall. I am a graduate of that school. I am a graduate of that school. I direct it from Washington, until we might get it on its feet, reconstructed. Occasional Trip "I am doing that now—spending possibly a couple of hours per week, and taking an occasional run up there by night. I do not know yet whether the school will or will not—come thru. If it finally dies, why it dies. If we can make it live, there will be little difficulty, within a couple of years, of having it overcome its prejudices of all these years. If it will not do so, then frankly I shall have nothing further to do with it. Trustees Approve "I brought this to the attention of the Trustees of Howard University at their February meeting, and they raising no objections, I am retaining the position of president." "There is not a cent of salary attached to the position." Those who have learned of it consider the information startling. A few of the old time educators view this dual presidency with misgivings and regard it as an imposition upon Boston. They seem surprised that President Durkee, besides filling pulpits in various churches on Sunday, has the time to administer the affairs of another institution 500 miles from his local engagement. The pamphlet states that Dr. Durkee is in daily touch with the Boston institution better or worse and is bound by the Federal Express to and from Boston. It so happens that the Boston School of Expression is an institution of 40 years standing. The tuition is $300 a year. An authentic report declares that colored applicants are not permitted. Dr. Durkee's presidency of both schools will undoubtedly invoke some expression from the Howard alumni. Philadelphia, (A. N. P.)—George Jackson, accused of alienating the affections of his son's wife was released under $1,000 bail. The father admitted that he declared his love for her to the daughter, who was to prove to his son that what he told the latter about the woman before he married her had come true.

RHINELANDERS SAID TO HAVE OFFERED MONEY Would Give Colored Mrs. Kip $100,000 To Withdraw Suit SUM THOT TOO LITTLE Subpoena Out For Tongue- Tied Kip When He Re- turns Home New, Rochelle, N. Y.-The marital troubles of the Lea- nard Kip Rhinelanders may never be aired in court. Counsel for young Rhin- lander and for his bride have had their heads to- gether lately. The wealthy Rhinelander family reports have it, have offered $100, 000 in settlement or the bride's suit for annulment on the ground that she deceived her husband as to her race. Her counsel have intimated that $100,000 is entirely too small. Samuel Swinburne, counsel for Mrs. Rhinelander, has received affidavit from England denying that Mrs. Rhinelander is of Negro blood, it was sald. Subpoena Awalta Husband It was also asserted that a. subpoena to appear as a witness for his wife is awaiting a jury trial for misdirection. Isaac N. Mills, of Mount Vernon, former Presiding Justice of the Appellate Division of the Supreme Court, a member of the legal battery assembled by the prosecutor blamed the delay in trial on Judge Swinburne. Judge Judges issued this statement: Says Both Want Early Trial "Both sides are anxious to try the case immediately and we shall join in a motion for preference, so that we can try this case this spring. We understand that White Plains the case would not come to trial for many months if left to take its natural course. "There is no legal reason that we can submit to the court when asking for a preference. The only thing is that the status of the parties shows that we are not sure. I believe that Justice Taylor will give us a preference if counsel for the defendant and I ask him for it." A Thousand Letters Mr. Davis, Mrs. Rhinelander's counsel, said the issues to be submitted at the trial in the Supreme Court at White Plains are: First—"Is Mrs. Rhinlander of Negro blood?" Second—"Did the defendant deceive her husband as to her color?" From an authoritative source it was learned that Mrs. Rhinlander has 1,000 letters written by Mr. Rhinlander to her previous to their marriage and the amount was started. It is said that she numbered them "one to 1,000" and that they have been turned over to her attorneys. MOB MUTILATES WHITE Williamston, N.

OLLEGES SUIT $150,000 LOVE SUIT DEPENDS ON BABY BLOOD Unmarried White Mother Sues Politician for breach Of Promise HE DENIES PATERNITY Tells Supreme Court Colored Man Is Father Of Her Child New York--On the issue of whether or not her four year old son has colored blood depends the $150, 000 breach of promise suit of Miss Florence Redington White. The suit is brought against Isaac N. Ulman, white, Republican politician of New Haven, in the local Supreme Court. Claims Breach of Promise The young woman, who gave her age as 32, claims Ulman, who is a wealthy corset manufacturer, wooed her under the name of Louis Johnson in 1920, promised to marry her and is the father of their child. They met, she says, at the home of a former actress, Caroline whom Ulman visited. Or Lindsham opened in palmwood, he put the wedding off, alleging pressure of business. After the child was born in 1921, she says his love cooled and his visits ceased. Ulman Denles Ulman, who is a married man, with a family, denies any promise to wed and denies paternity of the child in the case of his. He is Andrew Peters, who is colored. Ulman claims he will produce health records to show that the child's name is listed as "Agnwes Peters" and is listed as "Andrew Peters" was listed as the father. Mother Counters The suit was postponed Monday because of the absence of one of Miss Redington's lawyers. It was called again on Tuesday. Miss Redington declares she will miss the trial of expert doctors who will prove from tests that the child has no colored blood. If this testimony is offered, it will be for the first time in any New York court. Little credence is placed in the testimony, far as is known, there is no test to determine the race of an individual from a sample of his blood. Not only have differences between blood samples of races never been satisfactorily determined in this way, but there are additional tests to distinguish between the blood of man and animal. Attempt to Compromise Louis Uilman, a brother of the defendant, admits he offered Miss Redington a sum of money to hush the attack, and used the offer, however, as too small.

Demand Forwarded to Secretary Davis and the White House New York—The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, today made public a letter to Secretary of Labor James J. Davis, demanding the dismissal of Dr. W. A. Plecker of Richmond, Virginia, from the Labor Department's staff, on the ground that he had used the Labor Department's privilege of free mailing, to distribute "a phamphlet which contains the most insulting and virulent attack upon the colored people of the United States that could be imag- "This anti-Negro propaganda is contained in a pamphlet entitled Eugenics and the Law on Racial Integrity." It is issued by the Bureau of Vital Statistics of the Richmond, Richmond, Va., and is published in Richmond. It is included in an adder to the Georgia law called the Collegiate Act by Dr. W. A. Plecker. On the official government order in which Dr. Plecker's name is printed as Special Agent of the United States Department of Labor, Chili- dren, latter, signed by James Weldon Johnson, secretary of the Advancement Association, cites the following quotations from Dr. Plecker's 32-page pamphlet in support of the demand for his moral and moral characters. "The moral and moral characters of a black man cannot under the best environments and educational advantages the same as those of the man," Dr. Plecker said, "dear car to those who would interpret Christian brotherhood to mean racial equity. "Not only do we seek to affirm authorities recognize Negro inferiority and the danger of amalgamation, but leading Africans in it are also unpleasant the last cause by being thrown into politics, saw clearly the possibility of disaster to our institutions and culture." Mr. Inglesgard are superior in mental power to the lower race. They are more curious and capable of tack the creative power of the higher race, and cannot sustain a lasting civilization that will rank with the best of the work. "There is but one absolute solution which is acceptable and feasible, and that the race is able to live by. But far-seeking Biometrics of the past, the separation of the races by gradual repatriation of the black population is still possible, but the longer it is deferred the greater the task." Speaking of the advocates of birth control, Dr. Plecker is quoted as They are *falling utterly*, and will always *fall utterly*. The feeble-minded, the morona, the Negroes, the criminals and underlings, and if they did, would not have forelash, self-denial or fortitude to practices the methods "Dr. Plucker is an avowed anti-Negro propagandist, who is continually expressings his views on the platform. What he has to say through these two mediums is insulting to all colored American citizens, when as he says, "We are the Labor he sends this matter out under the government frank and at the expense of the common tax-payer, his actions become a "Dr. Plecker has used his official position to disseminate propaganda of American citizens and in so doing has used the government frank private prince of America to entirely undefinite. Therefore, we, the National Association for the Advancement of Women, have sent a united sentiment of the Negro citizens of America, respectfully place before you their eminent and esteemed Dr. Plecker from the federal service.

Labor Department's Advancement Association's letter to Secretary Davis says: U. S. Citizens, white and colored, throughout the United States are being urged to protest to the Labor Department against the retaliation by Dr. Plecker.

Ma' Ferguson 'Slips Up' On Prejudice Says Pittsburgh Daily WEEKLY SERMON WEEKLY SERMON The sermonic message this week was given by Bishop M. W. Clair, at the Sharp Street M. E. Church. The message next week will be supplied by Rev. David E. Over, pastor of Union Baptist Church. He is in the list in the book of David are interesting. He was very devout, in fact, he was an extraordinary man. Folk in high walks, of life are not expected to be devout Christians and when they are people marvel. Samuel in abediction to God's call went to the house of Jesse to pick out the son who was to rule: all of the sons were raised together with the hope that one would be chosen, but none of these would do. As a last resort David was called, a nere lad, and upon him God's favor was raised. He was raised together with the hope that one would be foods. David, on the other hand, never got to that point. In all of his busy endures God had the first place. David is only true of David, but is so of every one who walks humbly with his God, despite his many tasks and obligations. Powers within us do not assert themselves only under pressure: for that reason we are often assulted by many trials and tribulations. We are surprised that he was privileged to have community with God. The psalm opens with his praise of God, and our privilege to sit in communion with God. He spoke of rather being in the mental position of doorkeeper in the house of God than in the highest position in the gift of the world. We should hold conference with God over the issues of talks to friend; this was unusual talk for king and man in high position. Religion is not to take us to heaven when we die, but help us co-operate with God to maintain it in place to live in. No institution can come into his life. Goodly life cannot be lived until contact with God is established. From Pittsburgh Garage Time— From Texas covered by Ferguson, Texas covered by Ferguson, with type- writing in explaining her refusal to honor the requisition of Governor Alvin T. Fuller, of Massachusetts, with typewriting in explaining her refusal of Albert P. Russell to stand trial on a charge of wife desertion. Her recital of the history of the case is convincing that she is reasonable subject to trial, but the subject not a proper subject for extradition. Apparently he did not abandon his wife in mannear to make him liable to prosecution. If he did, as Gov- ernor Russell had told him, he did not take place in Massachusetts, in any case, it appeared that Russell's wife had consented to his liv- ing away from her, but he would seem to debar her from prosec- ing him. We think that if Governor Ferguson had been content to rest her re- quest, her decision would have been generally commented.

Cox of West Virginia for the inter-state rendition of a Negro charged with felony in West Virginia who sought a haven of safety in your State and found it. This will be the end of the month. The inference is indicated that the Governor of Texas intends her refusal as a rebuke to the Commonwealth's official act of its Governor of which she personally disapproves. The question arises in the readers' minds, would Governor Ferguson have condemned the Massachusetts Governor of white instead of black? As she heard the "story," the Negro was he would not be granted a fair trial, Possibly the Massachusetts executive erred in taking the position he did for the reason he is said to have permitted her official course to be dictated either by vindictiveness, or prejudice, which unfortunately will be imputed to Governor Ferguson, will not tend to strengthen the good faith act which should obtain between the States.

C.—"I was shocked when I read in the AFRO-AMERICAN. The National Training School for Women and Girls, Lincoln Heights. D. C., has just received $73,233 from the National Baptist Convention of the United States of America, Incorporated," declared Miss Nannie Burroughs, head of the school who visited the AFRO office Monday. The article referred to was sent out from Nashville and released by the Preston News Service. Miss Burroughs said, "There is absolutely no truth in the announcement. Where it came from, who authorized its publication, and what the motive is, are questions that baffled me. This false report does our work great harm, for the reason that the school is in dire need of we are now sending out an appeal for $25,000, with which to meet pressing obligations. "The truth of the matter is that the National Baptist Convention, Incorporated, has given only $10 to the school in its entire existence. The entire report is false, and will do the Convention and its boards misunderstand. "People, far and near, have sent messages of congratulation to us, and our friends were very jubilant over the fact that the institution had at last received a worth-while gift. In justice to the Training School, we must give out some facts: that its national organic state, does not raise enough money to pay its own current expenses. "For my services as corresponding secretary and as president, the Woman's Convention and the Trustee Board owe me about six year's back salary. I have made the sacrifice used my earnings—not because I was a slave, but because I is in the work and I always have been—and always will be willing to do anything that is honorable to keep it going. "If we were to receive that hand some sum of money, let me tell you what we would do: Get some one to lock us up for several days and have a Thanksgiving Meeting behind closed doors, because if we were to be locked up, down the street alike a crazy woman, crying to the top of our voices. Praise the Lord! Praise the Lord! "Second, we would summon all of our creditors to meet on Lincoln Heights, and, amid thanksgiving and check writing, we would pay the last no of them off. "Finally, we would put in the central heating and an $80-horse power boiler." Make Repairs "Fourth, we would make necessary repairs. "Fifth, we would apply $10,000 on what is due us for back salary and on account of a loan which we make the Institution several years ago. "With the remaining $35,000 we would start the Trades Hall—in fact, we would build the Trades Hall, because with $35,000, our credit would be good for $115,000. We would make the National Training School bloom and blossom, and would add 25 years to the life of its president. Booker's Story "Many of us heard the late Dr. Booker T. Washington's story about the poor man who was asked by a friend to change $20. The poor man replied, 'Ah ain't got 20 cents, boss, but a dollar, and I want to just report the same.' The National Training School has not received 73 cents from the National Baptist Convention this year, and the Convention certainly should thank whoever reported the fabulous sum 'for the report' of the Convention. "Whoever wrote that release should be elected president of the National Convention of Annanlasses and Saphliras."

C.—Vice President Dawes has found another rule of which he does not approve, and, in his characteristic way, he has gone to work to have it changed. This time it has nothing to do with the Senate, but concerns a Negro who is in the position heeeper for all Secretaries of State in the past 56 years. His name is Edward Augustine Savoy, and it has been on the diplomatic register longer than any other name. May 2, Savoy's death has been a reminder. He must retire. He became the doorkeeper of the Secretary of State when that office was occupied by Hamilton Fish in 1883, and he was appointed for 18 succeeding secretaries, including Secretary Kellogg. In addition to being the oldest man in point of service in the diplomatic corps, "Eddie" has other claims to fame. It was he who carried American forces to Sherman to Senior Poole d Barnabe, Spanish minister, when the United States declared war on Spain, and when "Eddie" delivered the ultimatum he delivered the minister's passports. The same year he accompanied Secretary John Hay to the United States, and when he was signed it was "Eddie", who affixed the seal of the United States to it. But, notwithstanding these claims to distinction, and the fact that he is as spry as many a man half his age, he must be retired, according to the rule. But "Eddie", knowing General Dawes' aversion to rule, has appeal- Walter Goodwin, 35, 3rd and C Sts. N. E.; Nora Williams, 27, 205 Gordir Ave., Rev. Aquilla, Sayles. John Billa, 25, 212th E St. N. W.

ADMISSION: 10—TEN CENTS—10 AGTRESS IS VEXED OVER AFRO COMMENT Writes Theatrical Department That Injustice Was Done Stevens and Finlay EDITOR EXPLAINS Writer Thinks That Act Would Have Been Praised If Playing White House Mr. Williams. Dear Sir: I send you names of acts I have worked with for the last fifteen years and that should prove to you if I am a newcomer as you were heard to remark. Yes, we are both to the inferior, but not the superior show business, if we review it, if someone told you the act was owned and written by a white man on Broadway (which it was) and he came to town playing the one of the downtown theatres, where they cater to hires in blacks, we could have been great in your estimation I presume. But as we have been playing to all classes of audiences since October 1924 and have pleased we did not want to of rewriting the act for one week. Advises Acquaintance With Act Before closing, Mr. Kennard I wish to state that if you take up a little time becoming acquainted with the deportment of some of the good acts that are favorites of yours. Not referring to either act I am worried that I will be preoccupied weeks is would be better than sitting out front as a reporter knocking acts to managers, and as I hope the team of Stevens and Finlay will continue successful regardless of your reports or remarks. Cause Of Letter The following clipping from last weeks AFRO-AMERICAN brought down the wrath of Miss Finley on our editorial head. **STAR** Three "wheel" acts replace the usual companies here this week. Stevenson and Finley, a singing and patter team opened. The voice of the talk is silent, but all of the talk should be rewritten on Monday afternoon it threatened to be tiresome and devoid of "kick." Editor Replies The theatrical editor, of course pleads guilty to the accusation of pennning the above item, but with no malice inforthought. Our mission is to catch the reflection of the audience through their response to the efforts of the act or company. Our personal duty as we see it is to report just what we see and hear fairly unbiased without prejudice. Our efforts are meant to be constructive and not controversial or destructive. Knows "Jim" Stevens Nowhere in the article is mention made of the team being newcomers, nor did we "knock" the act of the management of the Star or any act to any manager. Mr. Stevens is by no means a stranger to me, his ability is as Lincoln Star. Mr. Stevens to add or detract. "We are still convinced that an improvement might be made in the talk, and would say so (contrary to the ladies' intimation that I wouldn't if they had been playing a white house). And at that I wish the pair the very best of luck. The second annual Florida Colored Fair began on Tuesday of this week.

Thousands of free tickets have been given to school children of the city to be used on children's day. The children opened the fair with a rage.

Jack Hoxie, the cowboy favorite with Carey audiences, will also appear on the week's program in, "The Crow's Nest," a five act Western. Neal Hart has also been engaged to do a portion of the entertaining as one day's feature in "The Crows Nest." A picture that will, possibly, not be surpassed during the week in attracting the fans will be, "The Woman on the Jury," an excerpt of the story of which is reproduced below: Betty Brown, deceived under promise of marriage by George Wayne, shoots at him, but misses. Later she becomes a prominent business woman and weds Fred Masters. Husband and wife serve on a jury case involving the killing of George Montgomery by Grace, a woman he betrayed. Betty discovers that the deceased was none other than the man she tried to slay. The jury is eleven to one for conviction, but Betty tells her own story and Grace is freed. Betty's husband not only forgives, but is proud of her. Four serials for the week and a comedy each day complete the tempting outlay.

"Unguarded Women" At Dunbar Wednesday Paramount has produced something new in "Unguarded Women," which will play the Dunbar next Monday, April 6th. The part calls for a man of strong character, and in his work in this picture he does some of the best work of his career. He is a brilliantly cast in this. In this production the director has taken care not to overpower the story with too much Oriental atmosphere. The Chinese effect is secondary at all times and does not detract from the story in any way. It is worked in such a subtle manner that one senses China rather than sees it. Bob Daniels, as Mrs. Banning, is excellent. Hers is a hard part. She is called upon to portray the woman who has started on a downward career. In direct contrast is Mary Aster, the young girl who has been protected by a loving family and retained all her sweetness. The clash of these two characters is well portrayed. One of the outstanding scenes of the picture is a cut back of action in France in which Captain Banning is killed. It shows a raiding party at work in No-Man's Land at night and the flares and bursting sheels through the war days again. It is the most thrilling scene in the picture.

To The Editor: There appeared in a recent issue of a pittsburgh weekly an article supposed to be from Paris and written by a Mrs. Mitchell, stating that we the four girls former members of the Moulin Rouge revive loft be used we were dissatisfied with the treatment accorded us by the management. We wish emphatically to deny this statement as it is an absolute falsehood. The truth of the matter is that the management of the Moulin Rouge and the people of France as a whole treated us with all courtesy, kindness and respect, and we will always love the people of France. Stayed Away From Mitchell's We take this message thru your valuable paper to scribe all the stories ennaminng the habitues of the district ofence to mistreatment accorded us. We wish also to deny the statement that we frequented the so-called Cabaret operated by Louis Cahert in the Montmartre district of Paris. Management Splendid The contracts which we signed under the direction of Mr. Billy Pierce were religiously lived up to by the management of the Mouth Rouge and upon our request the contract we were given three weeks salary in advance. And as for our having any friction with Miss Gertrude Hoffman, it is a willful untruth. We considered it an honor to be on the bill with such a celebrated star and star as she, Hoffman, so please let our group of the American people know that we love France and Her people. Thank Miss Maitland We resent any reflections cast upon such a great Commonwealth by habitues of the infamous Montmartre of Paris. Some of the members of our institution were homesick. The time of our contract was about to expire and it was entirely optional with us about a renewal of our contracts. We four girls take this means, at the same time thanking Miss Elizabeth for her kindness. Interest she took in us while were there. We also wish to thank Mr. Billy Pierce, who made it possible for us to make this wonderful trip to Paris and back first class. Signed: François Smith, Sylvie Martha Gilchrist, Dove Boykin.

Hairstone, one of the original Black Sox players, and about the brainstil ball player that ever cavorted around a diamond, was a visitor for the last 10 years. A visitor, he says he is thrilled with baseball as player and manager, and is quite successful as a machinist. His work takes him over quite a bit of the country and whenever he gets the chance he loves to play in Boston and the Black Sox. He nearly lost the sight of his right eye last year when a flying piece of steel lodged in the member causing his sight to be impaired for some time. However, the veteran diamond art player, also a member of some of the best players in Boston, N. Y., and mentioned the fact that he might become interested in them this year. BLACK SOX. A CLUB OF STARS In speaking of the Sox, the ex-player said that they will have assembled the greatest aggregation of stars that ever played on a single team. "Every individual star," said Hairstone, "and that is likely to be the cause of the success of the Western and Eastern leagues, and by far all of all times. But it remains to be seen if this will together as a smooth machine or each star will be together by a fraction. It remains to be seen if this matches but sometimes the manager might see things and suggest plays that are diametrically opposed and when this comes about, and it will a hundred times the men arise to the occasion and the whole or object for impulses and rely on the ability as ball players. Just this will decide the first for the pennant will be between Hilda East, and Kansas City and the same Grand Slam club, and if Backwink, the youngest manager in preparation of the players the Sox will meet the Arnold series." **DID WHEATLEY VIOLATED CONTRACT** and the Scholars to the Athenian Club last Feb. the Scholars club. showed the signed contracts week made on the 13th of November, 1294. before witnesses agreed to play on the Scholars 124-25.

"...the fact that a lot of cracker prejudiced writers are saying, 'Dempsey should worry.' Dempsey is worrying and so is his other manager, Jack Kearns.

And the fact remains that Wills is the hardest opponent Dempsey has over faced. Wills outlawed Firpo by a wide margin and the Wild Buil gave the champion more trouble than anyone else. The New Orleans fighter is certainly many steps beyond Carpenter, who was completely overlooked by the Wild Buil. If Gibbons is entitled to first crack at Dempsey's nose for his showing against Kid Norfolk, then Bob Lawson, by all means, should be matched with Gibbons today.

BALTIMORE STREET OFFICIAL SCHEDULE OF LEAGUE IS OUT OFFICIAL SCHEDULE OF LEAGUE IS OUT RULE IS PROPOSED Teams Not Completing Schedule To Lose Official Stand- Due to the two traveling clubs in the circuit and the fact that some of the clubs play but one day per week at the home parks, it will be necessary, to make several minor changes or additions to the 1925 schedule in order to effect a 70 game layout for each team. To arrange suitable dates several of the clubs have leased extra parks, some of the Lincoln Giants' games with other clubs will be played at Chester, Pa., while Hilldale will play at Birmingham, Pa., and Glenview Giants at Lancaster, Pa., and some games between the Brooklyn Royal Giants and Cuban Stars with other league clubs will be played at Jersey City International League games will be played of course, to be arranged to fit in when the parks are available. The Commissioners will set a date for the games of any club that fails to play a set quota of games within the time limit. This will eliminate the chance of a club having the highest percentage of games played in club in the number of games played. Much dissatisfaction was expressed on this matter last year when Hilldale capped the pennant, and the team was unable to play several games on the schedule which might have given them a chance at the flag.

ANALGETIC BALM BALTIMORE ORIOLES BEAT MURMUR GIRLS OF WASHINGTON ORIOLES WALLOP MURMURS 14 TO 8 Baltimore Girls Thrash Washington Quintet In "Y" Gym In Slow Game MISS SPRIGGS LEADS Oriole Forward Leads Scorers With Three Field Goals For Point Honors The Murmur girls, basketball tossers, of Washington, were equawaking when at the end of 40 minutes of mixing with the Baltimore Orioles they found themselves on the short end of a 14-8 score Saturday night in the "Y" gym. The Murmurites yelled when at half time the Baltimore girls were Miss Winston, of the Murmurs, didn't murmur at "Duck" Gibson's refereeing, but hung out loud and was banished from the game. The Washingtonians didn't take the game, something very funny about the game which the spectators failed to see. The game itself was slow with the players running and quants. The tremendous bloomers handcapped the players in finding the after five minutes of see-sawing, Miss Marshall, of the Orloides, finally found the basket, followed by Miss Burrell. The first quarter ended with a score. Miss Gent Tallled Near the end of the second quarter, Miss Gant tailled for the first points of the evening for the visitors. Miss Marshall added a wide range, Miss Marshall added two more from the foul line, bringing the score to 6-2 as the first half ended. Going into the third quarter, Miss Winston added two points for the visitors, allowing the team to be bowled by three deuce spots in rapid succession by Miss Spriggs. Miss Thompson drew a foul, made the free throw and at the end of the third quarter, missed the basket on the front end of a 13-4 decision. Miss Duffey came to the front in the final going and looped a cager Miss Spriggs tallied once from the foul line. Miss Duffey scored a clean cut basket before the whistle ended the melee. Miss Spriggs led the scorers for the Orioles with three cagers and Miss marker from the foul line, while Miss Marshall was high pointer for the Murmurs.

CLARK WINS FINALS I N MIXED DOUBLES Jamaican Tennis Ace Wins' Mixed Doubles But Lost Mens' HARADA WON ALSO Japanese Star Won Three Straight Sets In Afternoon Game, 6-1, 6-4, 6-3 Jamaica, B. W. I.—The finals in the Jamaican Open Tennis Tournament that took place March 14th, show the following doubles: B. M. Clark paired with Mrs. C. C. Calder and defended E. W. Fleblieman and M. Fleblieman. In the men's doubles Clark paired with E. W. Fleblieman, white and lost to Vincent Richards and H. Fleblieman, both white. The Jamaican Tennis report of the matches follows: Men's Doubles Finals As expected it took Richards and Voshell some time to get accustomed to the sun and especially the glare on the balls. While they were playing, the team steadily ahead. A couple of aces together with errors on the other side gave Clark and Febby the first game and Richards after a thrilling rally culminating in a smash using his service to take the score. Soon they never came into the picture for four consecutive games then. B. M's. Faulty Service including two double faults, gave them another game. Clark and Felbieman then won Voshell's service thus giving them the first set 6-2. The second set was a little more did some splendid playing, only losing three points, while Voshell had top score in points won. In set 3 things warmed up into a tussel and both sides were out of bounds. This set closed 7-5. Feehx was Leading In Placements while Clark lost no less than 16 points and it is safe to opine that they would have captured it. In set 4. Voshell and Richards gave the impression that they were going to proceed to take the first three games and then Clark and Feby took two for themselves. Tospite made it 3-3. Richards makes it 3-3. Feby won his service thus taking the lead was out and bad. Richards took his game easily and then B. M. covered his game and then B. M. covered five-sixths to see the set and then materially slip out of his hand 6-4. Full scores: 2-6, 6-4, 7-5, 6-4. Richards good work that materially helped to win this match being good off the ground but poor overhead, many of his smushes being overhead. Vinnie last 11 points in this set. B. M. Clark Vs T. Harada This was the match everyone had been waiting to see, but the circumstances were not very favorable to 'B. M.' He had certainly had too much tennis in the morning heat and could not find himself. Even Harada who had not played since Wednesday did not really find his form until the third set. Another factor which no doubt militated against Clark was the use of the heavier Spaldings balls for the first time. Most of his drives lacked sting and found the net. Harada won three sets in succession viz. 6-1, 6-4, 6-3. Unthank Goes To Ohio Barbarton, Ohio (A. N. P.)—Edgar J.

J. - Billy Pimpus, by virtue of his rally in the two concluding rounds, especially so in the last session, brought him a hairline verdict over Harry Scott, the former Young Harry Wills, last night in the eight-round wind up of the Northside. It was a capacity audience that jammed the Waltz Dream and gasoline into the show, and to the show were lined up for blocks surrounding the arena. With the exception of occasional flashes of an overflow cup for their admission, there were some who left after the sixth round started and they missed the most spectacular part of the scena. Wills Dazed Up until the seventh. Scott was slightly in front. Pimpus came out fighting his best against this chapter. He was the best in the back, some of the form that knocked Al Markie kicking and cuffed Scott on the beak. This hard right brought him to the pitch. But Wills fought back by instinct. Pimpus was far from the form in which he flattened Markie. Scott's team was on his habit his jab was trouble-some to Billy. Harry was willing but had to cope with harder punching. Scott weighs in and Clark and Oscar Rhodes in his corner and Hill. Nick Hays and Joe Miller. HOWARD PREPARES FOR SPRING MEETS Washington, D.

Pickens Says Sentiment Aided Dempsey Dodge Wills Br WM PICKENS New York—Still dodging Harry Wills, and still being abetted in by a large part of "white" sentiment. The Wills' latest postponement is Gibbons, Just a little white ago it was "I will fight the winner," when Wills was being matched with Firpo. He and his accomplices were hoping to God that by some accident or other Firpo would dispose of Wills. Gibbons. For three years Dempsey has thus on some thin excuse been permitted to dodge meeting Harry Wills face to face. And we confess that we never though that American sporting circles would let him get away with it. And we confess that he stood up so nobly for Charles Gilpin, when a few snubs wanted to deny him the honor which was due him, we had conceived the opinion that he was more than the United States, the Virginia legislature, the editorial rooms of the Newport News "Press," and such other backward institutions.

Hansen was disqualified in the eighth round of a scheduled 10-round bout for Omaha. He won the better boxer and Hansen was plainly tired out by the seventh round. Hansen boasts a victory over Battling Sikit and has been fighting in Paris all winter without a defeat except in his fight with Charley Ring, of Australia, which he lost on a foot Sikit, who he is winning youngster of 22, is touring the world.

But that a fight with Wills would not "draw" a crowd. Why not? If a Dempsey-Fripo fight paid and a Wills-Firpo fight also why not a Dempsey-Wills fight. The hardest drawing seems to be for Wills and his manager to draw Dempsey and learns into reach of Wills if he fails. If Jack Dempsey will only stand up to the fight he'll get a crowd all right, for in addition to the large number of real sports, there are several million colored people who would be willing to pay a gate fee just to see this "champion Doiger" caught at within the arm-reach of a real man.

This Lincoln Lions defied the season without a single defeat, in in consequence claimed first honors in the C. I. A. A., and were held the harshest aggregation in No. 20 football. There was much rejoicing over the results of last season's campaign — the Alumni Association. This feeling of pride and pleasure was made manifest last week in Philadelphia as the Alumni assembled in Alumni at a banquet held in the room of the Attucks Hotel, Saturday night.

KID NORFOLK ALMOST BLIND IN LAST FIGHTS New York. A number of people have come forward with the explanation that Kid Norfolk lost both his latest fights because of defensive sighting. According to these reports Norfolk has received so much battering about the head that he is totally blind in the left eye and the sight of the other is gradually falling. Norfolk was called the "Keed" to adopt the infighting skills and whenever an opponent stays away from him and compels him to lead, Norfolk is almost certain to meet with disaster. It will be re-trained that Sam Larger used the same methods during several rings battles while his vision was impaired.

His first reason, that it was alleged that he stole or borrowed two Scholastic players, a thing which he would not think of doing, is a mammoth piece of hype. We would go back of that spirit Five Horseman game to prove this. When the Athenians played their first game with the Atlantic City "Y," "yours for cleaner sports." Mr. Howard Wright, played "Cute" Brown, then an acknowledged Scholastic, against the "Y" team. Brown one, back and the following week played with the Scholastic against Howard University. Borrowed or Stolen Now, according to the sworn statement of Mr. Wright, Brown was a Scholastic player until after the Howard University game. Therefore, when he played him the previous week, he must have either borrowed or stolen him. In the Horsesian game, William and Brown, when asked if they had joined the Athenian club, confidently denied that such was the case, but stated that, they needed the money which the Athenian management offered for their aid in defeating a visiting team. They were told that if the Athenian management was so unscriptuous as to play them on his team, when knew that they were under attack to the Scholastics, the fear of the loss of money offered them, need not cause them to return to the court, as they would receive double the sum the ethical Mr. Wright offered them. Both stated that they were hired for this game and when it was over would not play for any other team but their own, except they received mission from Manager Joe Saunders. Dodging the Issue Then, according to the Athenian manager, to our own statement, he either played a borrowed or a stolen player in the Atlantic City "Y" game, and according to the statement of Wheatley and Brown, Scholastic players under contract, the righteous Mr. Wright played two stolen players in the Five Horseman game. Then, the six experienced points are six skillfully considered dodgers, to escape the inevitable liking which the Scholastics have waiting for the Athenians. It is like a dose of castor oil to little "like," the longer put off, the more "unassayable" the end. Like Jack Dempsey The Athenian management makes the team international competitions for their Negro challengers. They give the excuse that the boxing game would sink to such a low plane, if a Negro by accident should win the title. Tommy Burgs was chased half around the world by Jack Johnson who was the cornered and given his inevitable beating. To date Dempsey is still dodging Wills; to date the Athenians are still dodging the naughty and clean for the "public" and cleaner for sparring, as Tommy Burgs could escape Johnson, as Dempsey must inevitably fall before Wills, so that which is waiting for them. "I think they should start together, play the series and start out with Elise Mountain, Director sharp St. Community House. "I am not familiar with the circumstances—other than that the car has been printed in the AFRO, and an not connected with either team and see no reason why the series should not be played."

BROWN National Singles Tennis Champion, 1922-23 Many have looked upon Roger Sullivan as a popular idol. Some have attributed it to his low breeding and downright cussiness. Others say his popularity followed his getting Mrs. Sullivan, told about his idea of matrimony when he said he old not marry his mother-in-law now the rest of Mrs. Sullivan's family, so that was that. Rather brutally creatured, he new cave man can imagine. But when he deigned to tell the truth about tennis as played by football artists and people who refuse to read the rule book or any other book, and glare if a trip to Forest Hills is suggested, the cure for the ache of lethargy, the great for us the gentle hint that maybe a better influence for good could be exerted if we were a little more tactful in whom we hit. We prefer to advocate the scientific nature of tennis as outlined in such splendid textbooks as "Lawn Anthony Up-to-date," by Blackmore, Anthony Wilding's "Tournaments, Experiences," or the incomparable new treatise on strokes of our own William T. Tilden, IL, on sale at all leading sporting goods stores, we have a few we would rather be right than popular, just that is meant. If by brutally attacking ignorance and false propaganda in high places we are able to sound a clarion call to the colors of modern tennis the champion of the United States Lawn Tennis Association will, of necessity, have to play the colored champion of the American Tennis Association to decide the worlds' title and award the international trophy. We repeat our often quoted original premise that the colored athlete Superior Ball Club Are Ready To Book Games Chester, Pa.—The Superior A. C., a traveling baseball club, is rapidly rounding into shape for the 1925 season. Some of the players that will be in the lineup this year are Pritchard, who pitched for the Texas Eagles; Spence, who toed the rubber in 33 games and lost five; Cruise, who had a batting average of 427 in 123 games; Black, of the Philadelphia Giants, and Thomas, formerly of the Philadelphia Giants. First class clubs having grounds and wishing a good attraction, write Manager C. C. Lawrence, 29 Morton Street, Chester, Pa. --- has excelled in every line of sport where he has had an opportunity to develop the scientific aspect of the game along with his inherent physical skill and native ingenuity. Miss Lula Ballard, of Germantown, could today beat Miss Helen Willis, of Berkeley, if she had started too, at the age of nine under the care of Dr. Willis, the California girl's father, and the aid of the usual professional coach at the local club. This young colored high school girl who never until a week ago know the difference in the success of a driving stroke when your right foot is in the hands of a coaxed backhand and the way she picked up the game by the hit and miss method surrounded by people who were a greater menace to development than can at first be imed, has in spite of all this incongruity come forward with a display of talent unrivalled by any woman in society with the exception of Miss Willis. In passing I might add that unless Miss Lulla Ballard, dances around too much and loses the punch of her powerful left arm before August, she will beat Miss Isadore Channels, who has been the opposite than Miss Wills beat the perennial Western champion, Miss Leighton, of Chicago, 6-0, 6-0, when she passed through the Windy City last year. I wish I could feel as encouraged by the scientific interest of some young man in the modern American sport, as youngest of the opposite sex has manifested here in Philadelphia. My advice to the ambitious tennis player is not to strive to be socially popular but on the other hand practice hard to play the game right and championship will indeed suffice for passing glory and public acclaim.

LONG ESTABLISHED WHITE HOODLUMS BOMBARD NEWLY PURCHASED CHURCH YOUTHS H URL BRICK INTO CHURCH WINDOW Police Reserves Called To Quell Disturbance At Newly Acquired Church Morning Star Baptist Congregation, However, Unmoved By Outbreak Another segregation outbreak was staged here when white youths hurled bricks into the newly acquired church of the Morning Star Baptist Congregation at the close of their first day's services in the structure Sunday night. The disturbance occurred about 9:30, and fearing further trouble, police officers were called but failed to hurle the missiles. Window Smashed The bombardment occurred about 9:30, according to the Rev. Mr. Garrett, pastor, when without any warning a brick was hurled into the window. In the commotion some of the visitors to the house of the officers hurried out in an effort to apprehend the persons who threw the missives. When police officers were sent for and arrived they were unable to find anyone connected with the affair, but assure dhe officers that they would see it in the fire and interfered with the services occurred. With the exception of smashing a large front window glass no damage to the building was done. Recently Acquired The Morning Star congregation recently acquired the church from the Metropolitan M. E. Church, South, and is said to have paid $100,000 for their first services there and these services were the occasion for a big opening in which 1,750 members and friends marched to the edifice from the old building. The church was also well filled at the night services when the deaconess, the Rev. R. W. Jefferson, of the Leidenhain Baptist Church, preached the morning sermon, while the Rev. J. W. Milts preached the afternoon and evening. The sum of $110 in contributions were collected during the day. The Rev. Jr. Garnett told an AFRO report that the disturbance was a small matter and that the congregation was holding meetings every night and attended to remain in the church. Although the marginal neighborhood is white there were objections registered when the negotiations for the purchase of the building was in progress and it is believed that the floods from another city are responsible for the trouble.

Tho no anthropologist, Jones has extensive knowledge of sociology and because of his suitability and experience opinion is valuable to many of these articles. Mr. Jones wrote in part, as follows: Amalgamation "We do know that there has been a great amount of amalgamation between the white and black races in America and any analysis that could be made of the citizens of America with mixed blood have had little and inadequate with the most Americans would probably not result in these mixed blooded people showing up poorly in comparison. "I do not see how we can talk about group superiority or inferiority when we can find black men in almost every line who are superior in attainments to the overwhelming majority of white men. More Education "More liberal education, it seems to me, is the only solution to any problem of group relations.—education which makes men more tolerant of each other, sympathetic with each other in their misfortune and encourage each other, and the cesses and struggles towards a bigger, better and more useful life." James Weldon Johnson Mr. James Weldon Johnson needs no introduction to the reading public. For many years he has contributed articles and newspapers of the country. For a number of years he contributed articles regularly for the New York Age. Mr. Johnson was United States Consul to Puerto Cabello, Venezuela in 1906 and later at Corinto, Nicaragua, 1909-12. He is an author, the first rank. Because of his distinction and reputation the writer feels that his opinion, not as scientific, anthro- Prisoners Stage In Western Prisoners Stage Cabaret In Western Police Station Not since the noted raid in which 400 men and women were taken into the Western police station last year had a single raid been so profitable to the police department as the S. Fremont avenue, Monday night. Just $396.75 was the amount exacted from the participants in the Western police station after a hearing on Tuesday morning, on Monday, and deceased someone at the party cut Connie Clark. $30 St. Peter street, inflicting several wounds about the head and face. As a result 15 were held at the western. The prisoners, both women and men, formed themselves into a know nothing club when the magistrate attempted to determine who was responsible for the cutting. All, according to their statements, were otherwise engaged when the magistrate paid $25 and costs. Only one, Otis Bennett, 224 S. Fremont street, had the price and was released. The others requested that their instruments, which had also been taken, be brought to their cell the request was granted. A jazz band concert, with solo members and other performers, defiant detainees, artists, caused the Western police station to take on the semblance of a Pennsylvania avenue cabaret. Those taken in the raid were Carney Clark, $30 St. Peter street; Otis Cary, $24 S. Fremont avenue; Samuel Richardson, S. Fremont avenue; William D. Fremont, $57 W. Lee street; Bennett Carey, $517 W. Lee street; Charles Wells, $612 Bradley street; Curtis Perkins, $515 N. Paca street; Dewey Shepherd, $224 S. Fremont avenue; Thomas Barnes, $224 MURDER AND SUICIDE Charles Pitts, 904 N. Fremont avenue, sent a bullet crashing into his own brain Thursday after mortality wounding Miss Frances Mason, 23, 630 W. Biddle street. The murder and suicide was said to be the result of a lover's quarrel when the young woman is said to have made an effort to terminate her relations with the young man. The killing took place at the Fremont avenue address, where Miss Mason was found in a pool of blood on the second floor. Pitts was found in a room on the third floor with the discharged revolver lying by his side. 0 FOSTER JACKSON Foster Jackson died Friday, March 20th and was buried from his late residence, 1208 Argyle avenue, Monday at 2 p.m. Interment was in Mt.

Clip the whole series of st minds consider a solution of the pologistically speaking, as the opinion of the specialists in this field, nevertheless is highly worthy of consideration. New York World, of February 3, 1924, carried a long article by Mr. Johnson written as a reply to an article by Mr. John Powell, which was published in the World December 2nd. After reviewing, the assumptions and points made by Mr. Johnson were confirmed in America between the two races, Mr. Johnson concludes: No Intensiority "Biologically, the evidence is not that the Negro is inferior. Neither is the ethnological evidence in that direction. And as for history, the Mediterranean races, among whom the most considerable admixture of African blood, have produced some of the most magnificent achievements of the human spirit, politically, in literature, in the plastic arts, as far as the decay of culture—how about Europe? No, not claiming that the collapse is due to Negro blood, is he? "As for the Negro—race adminkure was forced on him by the American white man. The Negro did not desire it any more than he originally desired to come to America and spread ambition among Negroes to marry white persons, such as the proponents of the Anglo-Saxon myth like to imagine. And the difficulties in the way of both parties to such mixed marriages are enough to deter most persons from entering upon them . . . Something to Fear "The Anglo-Saxon acts as if he had something to fear. He behaves like a coward. The American does not have to. He has no intention of any spirit, any nation and any race. If he cannot, then he had better say so. He had better stop twaddling about democracy, liberty and whatnot. Let him then come out boldly and say: This is a country for people who call themselves Anglo-Saxons without knowing what the most people who chose to make America their cozy little club, where every one else can exist on suffurance only."

When the officer returned a half an hour later, Crockett was patiently waiting. In due course, he heard a charge of disturbing the peace and committed for court for carrying a concealed weapon. **Woman Started Fight** The raid was caused when Frances Fletcher, 853 Ostend street, attempted to cut Bernard Holmes. 45 W. West street, as he was leaving the house. Holmes held her arms to prevent injury to himself. At this instant Crockett drew a revolver and ordered Holmes to lie down. A free for all fight ensued that necessitated police interference. Those who were taken were. Sam Schellby, 201 W. Cross street; Isaiah Strood, 1091 Plum alley; Joseph Crockett, 1089 S.

According to the boy he left his home Saturday in company with a man who gave his name as the Rev. William Jones. The boy declared that he was invited to ride with the Rev. William Jones to attend the communion. The trip lasted all of Saturday night and terminated in Philadelphia, Pa. Sunday noon. On reaching Philadelphia the boy declared that he was taken to a cafeteria, where he was given a meal. He continued that while he was eating he would secure gas enough to carry them on into New Jersey. He waited and after several hours when the man did not return he became suspicious. He waited, however, until Sunday. He had been deserted he started to walk to Baltimore more route home. On reaching here William made frantic efforts to obtain passage on one of the Norfolk boats at the Light street wharf, when he was taken to the way he applied at the Southern police station in the manner mentioned above.

His description of the man is vague, he only knows that he wore a suit of ministerial cut, a stylish mustache and a goatee. Captain Cooney declared his intention to return to Norfolk. Suffolk, his home, is only 22 miles from there, and it is thought that he can reach there safely... The boy was penniless and wore only a sweater besides his other clothes.

Henry Parnham, Who Shot It Out With James Robinson, Dies of Wounds WOMAN IN CASE Mrs. Sarah Perkins Left Sleeping Companion To En- The death of Henry Parhamn, 517 W. Lee street, who died in the South Baltimore General Hospital Saturday with two bullet wounds in his stomach, brought a grim close to the tragedy that cost two men their lives in a double shooting affray Sunday, March 22. The illicit love of a woman and an $50 bank roll were the chief factors that caused the shooting whereby James Robinson, of the above address, was killed instantly and Parhamn died a few days later. Slips From Room The basis for the tragedy which ended in the death of Robinson, was laid early Saturday night when he met Mrs. Sarah Perkins, the woman in the case, who, it is said, invited the former to her home. The pair were asleep, when later Parhamn, who was the woman's lover, came to the scene time Robertson and Mrs. Perkins were in a room on the third floor. Seeing that her new companion was asleep, Mrs. Perkins is said to have slipped from the room and entertained her old-time lover in the second floor. It was early in the morning before Robinson awoke and found himself alone. He sensed the situation, demanded $80 which he said had been taken from him during the time the two were together. Two Men Quarrel At this time Parham came upon the scene and a general argument ensued. Mrs. Perkins refused to give up any money that she had, but did return a gun which she had taken from one of his pockets. With the weapon in his hand, Robinson began firing and before Parham could stop, the bullet had entered his abdomen, and Robinson had rushed into the street. In hot pursuit, thought seriously wounded, he was followed by his antagonist, and at the corner of Lee and Warner streets, they shot the Robinson was killed outright and Parham again wounded. for Ea New stocks have arrived for Easter.

Many changes have been made in the cast to whip the production into shape for a contemplated engagement in New York, at the La Jolla theater. Joe Bryd and Billy Ewing, Emanuel Pugh, Greenlee and Drayton, Grace Smith, Lena Wilson, Mildred Brown and others have been drafted into service since the show. It is said did not measure up to the required standard. Goldie Blue, who stated that she had been a member of the team, claims that she. Doe Doe Green, Troy Brown and Willie Coles had received no money for last week nor transportation back to New York as had been the case. Complaint was made to authorities in the Northwestern Police station Tuesday, but Miss Blue was told that the matter was a civil one and would have to be carried to the police court. A communication signed by Harold Douglass, stage manager of the show says: "Rumors of the show are on the "blink" and not, paying the actors is false. They dismissed a few of the cast for the benefit of the rest of the show. People are out circulating false rumors. We are trying to give the public of Baltimore a good show for which they paid their money, and therefore I am sure the public will agree with it." aster RBRIDES girl's heart—a exquisite beauty ,5250 ESS To Be Girl'" at com- posefulness accurate 1975 Week other!

NOTED RACE SCHOLAR DIES IN BERLIN Berlin, Germany—Professor Karl Frazier, regarded by the German people as a "mystery man" a native of New Orleans, La. who was a teacher of twelve languages here was found dead in his room on Tuesday. The police say that when he was found the side of his dead master was his famous dog, named Passo, watches at the bedside. The German anthorities believe that Frazier died three of four days ago of gas poisoning caused from a leak in a pipe. When the rumor spread that Frazier was dead children and students of the entire section of West Berlin flocked to the house. None of his neighbors knew much about his life, except that he was a very quiet studious and highly respected man. He was been here for two years, particularly with people marveled to see a Nazi who could fluently converse in more than a score of languages. The body was taken to the mercy and was released Friday for a federal arranged from the American consulate.

He crouched and crossed hig arme, he shivered, his eyes were red. his teeth chattered, Ah, the kindly heat of the fire soon took the numbness from his stiffened limbs.

F. Richardson Says He Knew Masked Order tried To Kill Him SENDS WIRE TO AFRO Court Fight Between Order Houston. Texas-Exposure of the plan of the Ku Klux Klan to get rid of C. F. Richardson, editor of the weekly Houston Informer has not unnerved Mr. Richardson who was sitting at his desk busily engaged in getting out his eight paged newspaper. Richardson has been known throughout the country as a two-fisted light of exposing in his paper activities of the Klan, which he also devoted to his editor's columns. Warmer, more kinder, and would get him at the first opportunity. Richardson's only trait in protected himself was the purchase of two Winchester riffles with a few handy in his home after Klan is Exposed Exposure of the Klan's plans to get rid of him were made in Circuit Court last week in the Klan-Kimberly suit. George Kimberly with the Klan for the court for Goblin the Ku Klux. After he fell out with the Order, the Klan sued him for $25,600 and he sued the Klan for $40,000 on a debt claim. The court ruled that the week ended Kimberly concluded nine days of espousal testimony. Kimbro in court, doing everything possible to injure the Klan in his testimony, beaked two methods of getting rid of him, two methods of destroy all possible signs of discovery of the crime in the doctor's office, cut him into tiny bits and give each one of the fellows a piece of his flesh to carry away, or locate a quicksniff into which he might be thrown. Neither of the two methods for taking Richardson's testimony above were actually tried although the witness told of trips that he and fellow blissmasters made in the night in an Army funeral, the evidence might be dumped. Another plan was actually started. A klan grand jury was instructed to investigate the grounds that he had published illegal matter in his paper. This was to have been the Wharton county grand jury and the judge brought to the courthouse in the custody of the sheriff. At a given sign, however, the sheriff was to step aside and two co-workers and skilled in the use of the rifle, were to take shots at him. An attachment was actually issued paint; Richardson, but, for some reason, on the entire plan we spoke through. That the Klan backed the group of mobiles who beat Richardson up two years ago now seemed to be evidence from Kimbro's testimony. Sends Wire to Afro In a wire to the AFRO-AMERICAN CAY today, Richardson declared that the swarm testimony of Kimbro was merely a belated reminder of early contentions against the blooded order were right and well founded. These startling disclosures merceded further our original position brought the Klan further displeasure and public disapproval. The testimony has encouraged and nervied us in spite of dethronement of enemies, and enthrancement of adversaries. 0 FOUND DEAD UNDER CAR Jenns, N.

Name Street State Age Experience Reference Address all communications to Manager, THE AFRO-AMERICAN CO. 628 N. Eutaw Street Baltimore, Md. Kalph Matthews WHEN THE CATS AWAY When the cat's away the mice will play, proved to be a true saying when all the Methodist ministers left town for conference last week. Why were the church folks who have been on good behavior since last year, took advantage of their absence and tried to paint the town RED. A. Of course, we don't want to tell on anybody, but if a certain pastor learns how we saw some of his Alph Matthews leading members the night he left town; he would ceremoniously read them out of church. A parson can't afford to read everybody out of church who doesn't live right, because he would get tired of preaching. But he will tell the church. We don't mean to say that all church people are crooked, but its getting so a pastor can't even trust his TRUSTEES. The good work didn't lag during the ministers' absence. Some of the local preachers can eat almost as much chicken as the preacher himself. By that we don't mean to intimate that preachers only eat chicken. Some of them might not as efficient it comes to devouring sweet potatoes and gravy. But to get back to the folks they left behind. One brother was faithful to the last. Why. He even carried his pastor's bag to the station, so he could treat this man as he so could make sure that he had gone. Some folks' religion is like a couple section in a newspaper. It only comes out on SUNDAY. Other folks treat their religion like a bottle of medicine, they only use it when they get sick. A lot of churches want new pastors. They get tired of hearing the year. Of course, churches not get made with a preacher as soon as he delivers his first sermon. Some of them get mad before and before the doors. The preacher does not say many sinners is because he can't distinguish them from the members. MORE SUN DO MOVE continued from Page 1) name," the Rev. Mr. Hatcher con- firmed himself to the tenth chapter of Joshnia. Cites Biblical Verses Other passages of the Scripture cited by the pastor were as follows: Genesis 15:17. "And it came to pass, that, when the sun went down, and it was dark, behold a smoking furnace, and a burning lamp that passed between those pieces." Genesis 28:11. "And he lighted upon a certain place, and tarried there all night, because the sun was set." Genesis 22:31. "And as he passed over Pentuel, the sun rose upon him." Ecclesiastes 1:5. "The sun also arisen, and the sun goeth down." Matthew 5:45. "For He maketh His sun to rise on the evil and the good, and sendeth rain on the just and the unjust." Relative to the earth. Rev. D Hatcher cited from Isaiah 11:12: "And he shall set up an ensign for the nations, and shall assemble the outcastes of the dispersed of Judah from the four corners of the earth." Revelations 7:1. "And after these things I saw four angels standing on the four corners of the earth, holding the four winds of the earth, that the wind should not blow on the earth nor on the sea, nor on any tree." Call God a Lie "Call God a lie if you will, for it is his word that I give you as to the rising and the going down of the Sun. I have no quarrel with science and with religion, concerning the earth revolving around the sun, but the word of Jesus Christ is greater than that of all scientists." Several professors from Virginia Union University and many students at the seminary the church was crowded to the doors with both races. SUPERSTITION DENIED BY VA.

If the circulation is good, the kind of newspaper that is valuable to the advertiser is the one that is the crow's eye of the situation, and is just what the large space user wants.

Phone 1884-W. 31-Apr. 11 stores in Baltimore have held the lead among the company's stores in America, and the lead for the past two weeks, and has stood second for approximately one year. The increase in business among colorful stores in the city that they look for our prices weekly in the Afro-American. We discussed that at our bank branch. It & P stores have the only concern that have paid the Afro-American and could suffice. But such national concerns as the Newark and Walkover Shoe Company, Kirkman and Sons, and the Coffee Company, that had never advertised in colored papers until they became coffee company, that had never reason of the fact that the circulation of the Afro-American is congested and brings the results, which is necessary in public advertisements. Newspaper advertisements that yield results are those that are placed in public space—the space-buyer of the Lord and Thomas agency said. "Circulation that is scattered here and there is not new paper. It harms the newspaper because it does not bring results. It makes the newspaper because the advertiser does not obtain results." Advertising-What Kind Pays? The kind that is placed in a newspaper with a congested circulation. The FORUM NOT COLOR BUT BUSINESS;DR.BRAGG Mr. Editor: By all means we should have an up-to-date and thoroughly equipped hospital. The present patient will be well equipped to history. Hospital is not a question of color but one of business. If there obtained the "cooperation" upon the part of the colored doctors, including Mr. Brown's letter there would be no deed of Mr. Carey's interest, or that of any other white person. The colored complete and entire qualification of the colored doctors to care for the various interests of such an institution, and also assuming that they represent the product and administrative ability, all that one would imagine pertained to such a group of men, the present "hold-up" with respect to the hospital is The present situation is an assumption that some necessary element, or factor, is wanting. If such element be the need of assistance otherwise, to so focus and conduct affairs as will, in the very beginning, generate a feeling of assured success, then we can assume that element of strength on such terms as may be satisfactory to those whose help is sought. I contend, that it is not a question of color, but one of colored doctors, as colored doctors, are sufficiently resourceful, and willing, tofect the desired result, let them go ahead and perform. If the xigencies demand it, of white friends, then let us know and appreciate the fact, that those white friends who may feel inclined to respond will unquestionably upon which that assistance and guidance will be given. GEORGE F. BRAGG. Jr. DEATHS DEATHS ants use their good influence with their friends and acquaintances to obtain votes for themselves. Every City Eager Every city should be eager to have one of its own citizens make this trip, for to tour the world is to be in touch with all the world, and a person having such a broad outlook is an asset to those in whose midst he lives. Teachers, students, writers, and administrators connected with any State or nationally organized body are urged to realize the importance of these prizes and the opportunity which they afford for world wide travel and advanced study and by being involved in their names and addresses to the Walker Company. Old Timer At Conference Hears Appointments Read Out and Decides Preacher's Job Is Uncertain Old Timer was meandering around the outside of Asbury Church, Fred erick. Sunday morning, when the AFRO Reporter named him, "What are you all asked to the Reporter, "you look like you had a bad case of hema- tic." ```markdown ``` "Man," said O. T. "This town is so crowd-in that even traffic cop is mad. He pinched one preacher and saxes me in a jerk, I turn round that blinkin' post on Main street fast enough. Me idle for turn out but sleep.

The sympathetic reporter took the old gentleman down to a restaurant on the corner and over real eggs. Old Timer grew eloquent. "Nossir," he told the Reporter, "the job is too uncertain.

Another one of my friends from down in Virginia says he's done planted part of his garden and his house got all the chilena in high skule and the Biship done sent him up in Maryland where there ain't no parsonage and neither in high skule.

Others may shine in the various seasons, but when April comes, with its promise of May, June, then the man who knows how to do things around the yard becomes a citizen of paramount importance. You may know a great deal about stocks and bonds, but what do you know about seeds and bulbs? You may know much about a straight business policy, but can you plow a straight furrow? If you can not manipulate a hoe in the spring-time, of what avail is it to you as a citizen that you can pilot a straight eight? But if you can make two potatoes grow where none grew before, or can induce a green onion to bob itself above the greensward where before was only grass, you are entitled to the distinguished service cross of domesticity. Montgomery Ward and Company, which is completing a large plant here which will employ 1,500, may be the first department, according to information in the hands of Maurice R. Moss, executive secretary to the local Urban League. In letters from the headquarters of that concern it was stated that the employment department would open for applicants about April 15. The Montgomery Ward Company has for some time maintained a very broad policy with reference to employment and in its Chicago plant at one time more than 300 young women were filling clerical positions. This same policy will be used from the headquarters of the company. While it is not known just how many colored men and women will be employed in the area, it is evident that the same consideration will be given to colored employees as those of other races and it is possible that several hundred may find profitable employ- Opening Wedge In the past it has been the policy of local manufacturing concerns to employ colored men and women in the manufacture of young men and women taking courses in stenography, mechanics, and clerical work, found it impossible to find employment in the industry. If Montgomery, Ward and Company inaugurates the policy of employing young women in the industry, face race concerns and the opening wedge to radical expansion in industrial opportunities here. With the teaching profession crowded and but few opportunities available to the young man and young woman finishing from our advanced schools has been a hard one.

CARROLL Macedonia Baptist Begins In Horse Stable Soon To Enter $100,000 Marble Church Like a page from the book of Romance, and just as interesting, reads the story of the founding, rise and fall of the Baptist Church, which for a half century has stood at Saratoga and Vincent streets, a spot that has been visited by many souls who have crossed the Great Divide and entered the mystic Beyond. The church had its origin in the efforts of Brothers N. Charles Lawson* Leander Jones and several others of Union Baptist Church. The beginning of this congregation was most humble, starting as it did with the first congregation at the cent "alley," just around the corner from its present location. This stable could not even boast of a floor, but it was a place of sincerity and sincerity of the little band of worshippers elicited the friendly interest of Mr. G. G. Tyler, white, who not only "floored" their stable, but chairs furnished for their comfort. From the very beginning the congregation prospered and soon moved to more commissioal quarters at the St. Soratoga and Vincent streets. The first election of officials resulted in the following selections: James Jones, Henry Jenkins, John L. Jones, and George Jones, S. W. Washington and L. Minor were the clerks. On November 5, 1874, the organization Baptist Church. Among those making addresses on this occasion were the Rev. G. W. Sanderlin, white, pastor; Dr. George F. Child, church; Dr. George F. Child, mess. William H. Hamer and Christopher West, all white friends, and pastor; Dr. George F. Child, whose fame as a fearless Johnson, whose afterwards became country-wide, then pastor of Union Baptist Church; Dr. George F. Child, pastor; and Brother Lawson was licensed to preach. After a few years a church was built and on August 25, 1878. Rev. W. C. Lawson was ordained and Brother Lawson was licensed to preach. He died November 18, 1878. During the pastorate of Reverend Lawson, the membership greatly increased, the debt reduced and the church made a good effort for good in the community. One of the city's best schools for colored men was long held in Macedonia, ending in Waeche street school, which is still being used. In May, 1304, the Reverend A. B. Cayman was serving efficiently until 1903, when he resigned his charge. It was during these nine years that the presbytery and membership increased to more than 800. Following the resignation of the Reverend M. Callis, the Reverend D. G. Mack, a young minister, only resigned after the presbytery increased to supply the pulpit thus left vacant. Few thought that the occupancy of this important pulpit by Reverend M. Callis was a mere temporary arrangement. But so favorable an impression did the young preacher make in four months that he was called to and accepted the pastorate September 13, 1903. That the selection of Dr. Mack as pastor of Macedonia was a wise decision by the marvelous growth in membership, the strong financial position and the remarkably high standing by the marvelous form for righteousness in the community. With a membership of upwards of 2,500, invited to an unusual degree, intensely loyal and enthusiastic Macedonian, he on to should her portion of any burden for religious or civic advancement. He debt that Dr. Mack found has been entirely liquidated, the church remodeled and frescoed at considerable cost, the whole of which has been paid, and that, too, without further investment in her purely spiritual enterprises. Macedonia is a live church with very efficient departments and auxiliaries. Its Sunday school, organization, and worship are of the most progressive and up-to-date in the city. Its officiliary includes the following excellent workmen: Richard Washington, assistant; Miss Marie Pettigot, recording secretary; Mrs. Jennie Bagwell Corbin, financial secretary; Elmer Ires, treasurer, and Mrs. Fannie E. Giles, financial secretary. The Women's Missionary Society, organized about 20 years ago, is one of outstanding character, and has been known to servearies with which any church could be blessed. His first and only president was the late Mrs. Ella Mack, a woman who consecrated to the service of her God. Whether as leader of the women of the church or as a rank, Mrs. Mack's life and works were an inspiration to them. Thorough-going and competent to a high church that are as permanent in character as are the substantial materials of which its building is constructed, she devoted her devoted and energetic band for the good of the congregation to whose well-being she had used up all her physical strength, dying in the harness with her last thoughts of those among whom for two decades she had so ardently loved. Mrs. Ella Parks is the vice president of this society; Mrs. Lette Hooker, treasurer; Mrs. Wilhelmina Matthews, assistant. Macedonia is somewhat exceptional, the number of men who take an act of violence on men in Men's Missionary Society, organized in 1915, confines its activities to the men who take out needy cases and quietly relieves thy ones. It has a large membership and the men are most enthusiastic, the chairman of this group, Peggy REV. BRIGGS Text for Today By HOWARD E.

New Macedonia Baptist Church Congregation will enter this new structure located at Fremont and Lafayette Avenues sometime in May. First Macedonia Baptist Church Stable in Vincent Alley near Saratoga Street C. B. Cook, vice chairman; Rev. J. W. Taylor, treasurer; Elmer Jones, financial secretary; J. H. Fatterson, recording secretary; Deacon George F. Holmes, assistant secretary, and Thomas F. Jones, corresponding secretary. From the humble services of Messas, John W. Carter and Henry Davis, who began serving as ushers away back in 1838, has grown the present efficient Usher Board. Thru the uniting efforts of the church, the present chairman, this body was duly organized in 1914 and has ever since rendered very valuable services. As we now widely known B. P. T. U. was organized. Its activities have always been distinctively religious, fostered, no doubt, by the unusually large numbers of adult members. The late Lewis Williams was its first president. Others who served in this capacity were. Mesers, John W. Carter, James W. Taylor, James E. Blas, and since 1921, Elmer Jones. Time works wonderful changes in all human institutions. Macedonia has been no exception. Of the decisions serving when Dr. Mack took charge only Brothers C. B. Cook and Thomas Henson survive. Other members of the Board are Brothers George F. Holmes, J. H. Wheeler, Richard Moulton, Sheridan Jones, George F. Hanks, David Washington, and J. H. Hooker. The trustees are, Messrs. John N. Carter, Wm. E. Johnson, Robert Ward, Samuel Harris, J. W. Taylor, W. W. Taylor, and P. P. Tonkins. J. H. Patterson is church clerk; George F. Holmes, treasurer; John N. Carter, financial secretary; J. A. Jones, assistant; David Washington, and J. W. Tylor, tellers. Two splendid choirs furnish the church an abundance of appropriate music. Prof. Phillip Patterson is leader of the senior choir, while Mr. J. Arthur Jones directs the activities of the juniors. Mrs. Orange Wise is organist. Flowers for the pulpit each Sunday are furnished by the Flower Circle, which also renders altar service on, Communion Sundays. Mrs. Ma BEN. MATTHEWS whatsoever ye would that men so to them for this is the law: 12. Reded by the Rev. C. M. Stepteau. The Rev. M. S. Banfield, pastor of the Horse Stable Marble Church Bria Baptist Church new structure located at Fremont and Bria Baptist Church Macedonia has the honor of organizing the first troop of Colored Boy Scouts, dating from 1913. Scarlett Smith is scout master, Mrs. Mabel, Moore has the leadership of the Camp Fire Girls. Having outgrown its present plant, for several years, steps have been considered for the churches' relocation. With that foresight and wisdom that have been characteristic of the man, Dr. Mack banished all suggestions of a change that could have only meant a renewal of the struggle to groove into the city was started by the announcement that Macedonia had purchased the handsome structure of the First Baptist Church, white, with a building that was formerly the Lafayette avenues, a property that could not at present prices be duplicated for less than a quarter of a million, yet it was seized by the authorities and a hundred thousand dollars! And through the skill of the remarkable leader, backed by a group of intelligent officials and a host of loyal supporters, the city has been so financed that the demands upon her can be easily met. As the white congregation expects to occupy its new quarters the first church in the city will be that Macedonia will take formal possession of the First Baptist property at the same time. The new church is of white marble, the lofty tower, and is handsomely appointed and splendidly arranged for the work of a modern church. It has long been regarded as one of the most beautiful church structures of which Baltimore could boast.

SLAYER RETURNS AND CONFESSES AFTER THREE YEARS Page Twenty WIFE MURDERER GETS 18 YEARS Clubbed Wife To Death Fol- ity That murder will out and that the old saying is true that a murderer will some time come back to the scene of his crime, was demonstrated in the case of Wesley Jones, who, two years ago clubbed his young wife to death and fled the city. Jones was apprehended here recently and after being taken to the office of the State Attorney, signed a plea of guilty of the crime and probed a plea of guilty was sentenced to 18 years in the Maryland Penitentiary. Jealousy Caused Killing That jealousy was the cause of the killing was brought out in the confession of the condemned man. On December 18, 1825, he stated that in a jealousy he seized a club and his wife to death. The Killing followed an argument over her attentions to another man which he claimed had entered his domestic relations. When the prince quarrelled his wife with her, he gave him infidelity and to have told him outright that she loved another and did not want to have anything more to do with him. With Another Woman. An account of confession was the fact that he stated that his wife was not wholly to blame, for at the time he was paying attention to another woman, whose name he gave as Miss Mayola Taylor, 1122 Shields alley. Mrs. Jones lived only a few hours after she cubbling which was said to have been furious in its effects. Jones then fed and has lived in various sections of the country. Strangely enough he ventured back into the neighborhood of the crime and cubbed near here several weeks ago.

Board Of Directors Call VErnon 6016 GOOD MORNING JUDGE The Afro Court Reporter There Was A Reason McGee Shade, age 24, 1407 Fremont avenue, had been struck in the head with a pick axe. McGee went to the Colonial Hospital to receive treatment. There he was questioned as how he had come to be hurt. He told the name of a friend he would mean spade and that gentleman was arrested. Everything was set for the hearing; the prisoner stood at the bar, But Mr. Shade, the star witness, failed to appear. The officer in the case had it postponed and he would be acquitted again. He made a special trip to Shade's home. McGee met him at the door and inquired the reason for the visit. Shade was extremely nervous about something. "Now, lok here. Mr. Officer," he said. "that man hit me in the head so all ain't got nothing to do with it." "Yes," replied the officer. "but he also committed an offense against the peace and dignity of the State of Maryland." "Well, you and the State of Maryland will have to set that the best way you do it! I don't listen to that station house." The officer went back and ran thru the photo album and there was McCoy. He said the information appeared that he was wanted for a little job in New York. Shade is now on his way to the metropolis in charge of a detec- An Unfinished Story Isaac Young. 1422 N.

Now, if your wife will own up" said Young. "I will tell you something." He never got any further than that, for Mrs. Hicks whirled a baseball bat and Young was carried out. He was dismissed in the Northwestern. The rest of the tale was never told. Viola Braxton and Moses Medley, at $24 Greenwillow street, were sweetheart's Viola and Moses had been getting along alright, with the exception of a few fights, until two women moved next door, for his new neighbors and he didn't want Viola to visit them. She saw things in a different way, thought they were alright, and visited frequently; most too frequently to please Moses. The crisis came when Medley arrived with three new neighbors there was no upper prepared. There was a reason Viola was visiting. "Judge, it don't look right to me," he said in the Northwestern the next women living together like that, "It may not be right either," said the judge, "but, nevertheless, I will disturb him in the peace." BISHOP COMPANY APPEALS VERDICT A verdict of $900 was rendered Stewart H. Frazier against the Bishop Manufacturing Company in City Court. Frazier said that the company had alleged injuries to the scalp of Mr. Frazier caused by the use of a Bishop Manufacturing Company preparation. The litigation covered four days, during which numerous witnesses testified. Producing photographs, Frazier testified that after using a preparation bought from the above concern his head began to swell and both of his eyes were seriously injured. This came from an injection of serum used by the plaintiff's physician. Analysis of the preparation submitted by Frazier is said to have contained among other ingredients a portion of lye. The Bishop Manufacturing Company represented by Attorney Warner T. McGuinn contended that no preparation taken from their stock could have caused the injury alleged and gave testimony to support their contention that the litigation grew out of a business transaction which displeased Frazier, among witnesses who helped them use Bishop Manufacturing Company preparations and had found them highly satisfactory were. Clarence Powell, J. Logan Jenkins, Nathan Bell, Jesse B. Clark, Thomas Walker and Benjamin I. Taylor. D. M. Spencer, a local barber, who has had 30 years experience here, testified that he had used over 100 barber sized cans of the preparation without any complaint.

If Something Wrong Somewhere RNS AN NING JUDGE Court Reporter He Talked Too Much If William Lewis, 1416 Mosher street, hadn't talked so much he wouldn't be in the jail house now. Lewis administered corporal punishment to his wife, Mrs. Daisy Lewis, of the same address, in their home on Monday morning. There were not witnesses and he left no scars. Lewis was in a fair way of being acquitted, for there was only his wife's testimony to convict him. But Lewis talked to her. After administering the beating, instead of keeping his own counsel, he went over to the home of his wife's sister, Mrs. Leuna Winder, 1324 N. Strickler street, and told her in no pleasant tone just what had happened. He beat her if she did not like it. It was right there where he made his big mistake. With the arrival of dawn two patrons from the Northwestern arrive at the house, leave until he consented, with a little persuasion, to accompany them. Lewis drew a fine of $50 and costs and may be minus a wife when he gets out, because Mrs. Lewis muttered something about moving her care when she left the court room.

H. Dodd, 1131 Pennsylvania avenue, for many years a steward at Bethel A. M. E. Church, was suspended Friday. "No charges were made, but the pastor, the Rev. Frederick Douglass, simply told me I was suspended." Mr. Told told the AFRO-AMERICAN. "I have not done anything to merit suspension, but I have an idea why he acted as he did. I can't tell you what I think, but I am taking steps to defend myself." Mr. Dodd was one of the stewards ousted or nearly ousted several weeks ago along with Lovi Moore, Thaddeus Copeland and one other, the president, the elder, the Rev. C. H. Steptone, and the matter was then dropped. Under the discipline of the church a pastor has the right to remove a steward "for sufficient cause" and appoint another to be appointed to be reviewed and finally disposed of by the quarterly conference. In this case the next quarterly conference does not meet until after the annual conference next month, but sent elsewhere. Watts' Statement William Watts, former steward of Bethel, who signs himself as one who suffered much in trying to uphold the present pastor, sent the APRO the following letter this week: As a member of Bethel Church, I feel with others, very keenly the unpleasantness at this time. Yet, what else could be expected when a number of its members who are for in the minority and who are more bent on permitting and encouraged to circulate petitions for the return of the pastor, knowing full well that he has served as long as the time allows, will show that there does not exist a single good reason why Bishop Johnson should be asked to send him back to this charge. In the other hand there are a great many reasons why such a thing suggested should not be thought of for more than a minute. Bethel are almost solidly against such a thing and much of our present confusion has grown out of their unwillingness to lend their support to the scheme of the pastor's return. Full Support At the time the present pastor came to our church I was a steward and like all the rest of the people in my support for every policy and defending him to the best of my ability against the terrible accusations that came up in his second year of his second year. It was only when thoroughly convinced that the arbitrary and high-minded methods used would serve only to undermine my faith and fusion that I voluntarily gave up my duties more than a year ago. That my conclusions were correct, and that I have been happening fast at this church that a few years ago was favorably spoke of by everyone. Then every officer, however, had their own responsibility to perform the duties of his office. No Officers Needed Today, no officers are really needed, since their functions are controlled by the hardest kind of effort was it possible to prevent our being thrown against an enormous debt of time and money that we might be needed in 20 years, if ever. The fine spirit that was once ours in the long past is the place of peace, hispical confidence, and the vast minority of the better thinking members not in a change, believing that Bishop Johnson will not in any way be moved by the grandstand play of the little mischief makers.

The truth of the matter is not that her dress was so antique, but the wonderful sublimity of her voice and the regular phone of her art contemptuous, simple affair, and to its disadvantage. Although it is conceded that the appearance of an artist should pleasantly contribute to the personality of the wearer, all those present who were capable of criticism doublely gave not the least thought to material things, so captured were they by the beauty of sound that came from her lips.

OF HEAVEN" 4, Harry Gilbert, Jr. Center, Jay G, Mc Rae, 1st prize Bertha Henson, 10, Mildred Winston: Photos by Hall and Penn Studio TO DEFY S. GREGORY OUSTER ORDER Fearless M. Williams Says Church Should Admit All or More Elsewhere ORDER IS SURPRISE Probably Has Sanction Of Bishop Corrigan Who Is Ill Says Williams Fearless M. Williams, 1622 Division street, one of the leading Catholic laymen of the city, advised today against compliance with the order of St. Gregory's Catholic Church, Glimore and Baker streets, excluding more than one church. The statement reads: As a member of the Catholic Church, and knowing that it is the duty of every Catholic to defend the church, we have brought to my notice—by a non-Catholic—the order issued over the signature of Father Peter I. Ireton, assistant pastor at St. Gregory's Catholic, asking the colored people not to attend services in this church in the future. It is needless to say, that there was no defense that could offer order for such an unchristianlike order as this. It is quite hard enough to be expected to occupy the rear seats, and Ireton would attend that church at all, is a little more than Father Ireton or any other Priest has authority to say. This order was not signed by Bishop Corrigan, but it would be natural to assume, had his assistance as the Assistant, that his successor would have without the approval of his superior; and if such is the case, it is not surprising that he was from a Dignity who was mentioned by some, soon after the death of Cardinal Gibbons, as a worthy successor. I consider it a stalk on the memory of such a salty man, to have mentioned as his successor, a cardinal, the doors of God's Church to his neighbor, because of his color. How inconsistent is this action with the word "love" that "love thy neighbor as yourself." The assistance of the Cyrenian was not refused by Christ, because of it. In the earliest days of the Church, the doors of the Councils—the outcome of which were some of the most important decrees of the Church—were closed St. Augustine and the other great theologians, because of their color. As the Catholic Church is the Church that should stand for Charity and lack of prejudice, I am somewhat surprised that these religious purposes of this particular Church themselves in their true form, and it seems to me, they would make better members of the Ku Klux Klan than the Catholic Church. Will Not Respect Order In conclusion I may state, that this request is the outcome of man's blind prejudice, and contrary to it, that the order is one order, from a religious authority, that I do not feel bound to respect, therefore, the only way that I can assist, and that assistors, could prevent me from attending services at St. Gregory's Church, if I happened to be in that place, and that I said Church to a Lily White locale, where such as they should be.
