The raid was orderly and engaged without the usual hubbub which accompanies the activities of the raid. Annoezan McKinley's hotel directly across the street from Ware's was not molested. The raise according to Richard F. Palmer, hotel proprietor, is a part of the scheme of enemies to drive him out of business. Another version of the cause of theaid is that the agents engaged for the discrediting Ware on the eve of the municipal election. At the last election he was a candidate for commissioner and came within two votes of being elected.

ORGANIZE TO WIN Congressman Tells Secret of His Chicago Victory. CHICAGO, Ill. (ANP)—If Negroes would organize more than 100 congressional districts might be represented in Congress by able and capable members of the group, was the opinion expressed Sunday night by Congressman Oscar DePriest, in an address delivered at the Friendship Baptist church. Launching into the matter of inactivity, the congressman told his hundreds of hearers, "I have come here for the purpose of finding fault with you, as well as to give you some advice. You are backward and unaccomplished politically, and you haven't organized yourself. To this twenty-first senatorial district you ought to begin your efforts by getting together and appointing a committee of three to share the floor. The find one person in each block of the district who can get ten more in that block to help him. Organize this group and you will find each member can get others into the organization. Mr. DePriest pointed out that there were at least one hundred conventions in the United States where Negroes have the majority of G.O.P. votes. These votes could send a Negro to Congress and could send a Negro to Congress where Negroes in Congress there would be more Negro boys at West Point and the United Navy Naval Academy and also legislation would be effaced in the interests of the Ne- Taylor in London En Route Home Taylor in London En Route Home Tuskegee Architect Has Planned $100,000 School for Liberia LONDON, Eng.

Dr. Taylor told the World, "If I were still a young man with my eyes unshakenly go to Africa, I was able thoroughly to recommend a preliminary choice for a site at Kakata, situated on a fine motor road to the Frippine plantation is within 20 miles of the proposed college."

The Rev. W. W. Allen and C. P. Dixon Meet With Accident in North Carolina. Enraged Mississippi Turns "Deacon" Outwitted Narrowly escaping a head-on collision with an automobile owned by a Mississippi tourist 26 miles from Richmond on their way to Weldon, N. C., the Revs. W. W. Allen, pastor of Shiloh Baptist church, and the Rev. C. P. Dixon, well known evangelist, had a close call Saturday morning. The cars, meeting at the top of a hill, tore into each other with such force that both fenders on each car were literally stripped from the bodies and the machines careened on fences on opposite sides of the road. Embankment By a stroke of luck the car in which the ministers were riding lodged against a post after tearing away a section of the guard fence, the ministers were fallen down a deep embankment. The ministers, in company with M. Swans, choir leader of Shilch Baptist Church, and a chauffeur, were making the trip to Welion, where they had preached engagements. Double Crossed When the occupants of both cars regained balance from the shock, neither could say definitely who was the driver, but a man, a Mississippi on a tour to Washington, claimed that he was on his side of the road. Likewise the chauffeur of the pastor's car was on his side. Seeking a little delay as possible, the ministers offered to compromise the white man told them the white man told them he would be satisfied if they paid him $100. A cheek was offered but refused until a telegram was sent to the minister to ascertain whether it would be honored. Right-A-Bout Face After mechanics had made repairs on the white man's car, the Mississippian started off, only to find that his whole rear end cogs had broken. He back and demanded that they pay the additional cost of around $200 which the mechanics said it would cost to obtain and install the new parts. The ministers refused, stating that their responsibility ended with the compromise agreement. While they were waiting, however, for mechanics to fix their car, the Mississippian summoned constables. On being told of the compromise they told him they misunderstood the circumstances. Want Christian Basis It was then that the Mississippiian assumed a more peaceful attitude, and stating that he was a deacon in a white Baptist church and recognized them as ministers of theossession, and settled on aegyptian and settle the matter on a Christian basis." It was then that the ministers told the Mississippiian that if the Christian basis was not good enough to work before they reached the community, they would be when its only effect would be to make them pay out to him more money.

CHICAGO. — (ANP.) — Marshall Rodgers, the comedian who has spent nearly a year at the Regal Theatre after the Regal Theatre a year ago, went to church last Sunday morning and found that the joke of the week was on him. Duly at eleven o'clock, Rodgers, known as "Garbage," had prepared himself to learn to the message from "Worldliness" from the lips of the Rev. Harold Kingsley, pastor of the Good Shepherd Congregational Church. After the sermon and the offering, the period of post-fellowship arrived and Dr. Kingsley, from the pulpit, announced that the Chicago funmaker was in the congregation. Members of the flock crowded around Garbage to give him the glad hand of fellowship. One middle-aged woman approached him, while others drew a bit back and asked "Garbage" if he knew who she was. "Oh, yes," replied the comedian, and she mattered those public idols who deny an acquaintance. CLERKS FOR AIR MAIL PLANES Second Assistant Postmaster General Tells Convention to Prepare Themselves: National Alliance Would Off set Demerit System. DETROIT. - Declaring that race mail clerks would be called upon before long to go up into the air, W. Glover, Second Assistant Postmaster-General, urged delegates to the National Alliance of Post Office Employees to get ready for the opportunity in an address at the annual session here last week. The speaker praised the loyal cooperation of the race employees in bringing greetings from the Postmaster-General. "I have served," public under four Postmaster Generals, and with no exception, may I say, Mr. Brown has shown above all the lofty conception of a fair deal for all, a spirit bound to permeate through the service so copious that their prospects are more brilliant than ever." Advancement In setting forth the future policy of the department in making appointments, Mr. Glover said, "We have given the chance to which he is entitled the colored man will be given every opportunity for development and activity, and he will be given his fellow workers on the basis of seniority. When John D. Gaine, first colored assistant chief clerk as died his wife, the Gaine family announced that the job be given to a white man. But I had a place in my organization for a man of Gaine's ability and I felt that I was in the position. I have 400 colored employees of the department. "So I selected Emory A. Bryant, an assistant clerk, and I had come up through the ranks as a clerk and he know what the job meant. He is now filling it with credit. Gaine was one of the most valuable administrators I have known — loyal, faithful, honest, with a high sense of satisfaction shown in all the bounds of matters which he handled." Want Merit Plan Favorable action was voted on at a meeting of the clerks which will counteract the effects of the present demerit plan of rating, a new system of efficiencyinations council and a laborer's non-competitive examination offered by Anderson, of the Washington postoffice. The resolutions are similar to the recommendations submitted by Roy Berman, national president, in his brief report. Boost Air Service A. T. Walker, of Chicago, who came to the convention by airplane, announced his intention to take Second Assistant Postmaster General Glover up on his statement regarding the new employees in this branch of the service. The program included among the speakers the Honorable John Lodge Mavor of Detroit Roy O. Wilhott, national president of the Alliance; the Honorable Robert A. large and Joseph B.

He had a quilt a hit here at the Coliseum. "Well, who am I?" persisted the woman. "Oh, I don't know your name, but I know you face all right," parried the supporter. "Well, you certainly ought to know me--you've been talking about me all week," she shot back at him. "Borbage was much puzzled and the group crowded around began to titter. "I am Mrs. Oscar DePriest, the jitterhead couch-sated after enjoying the comedian's discomfits for a few minutes. "Oh!" sighed "Garbage" as he gathered himself together. "Garbage" had appeared in a mirror and wanted him that if he showed "Hearts in Dixie" at the Regal Theatre during the week and once during the act when his partner, Dinka Stewart, had threatened him "Garbage" had challenged his partner and warned him that if he didn't do what he had threatened to do, he (Garbage) would raise more disturbance than the white folks did over Mrs. DePriest's cup of tea.

Here he also saw Senator James E. Watson, the Republican floor leader, in the offices of the Senate Finance Committee. Statement: When he came out of the White House, Mr. Chisum made the following statement: "There is every reason to believe that we should recognize the colored people in this nation in a larger way than at any time since the McKinley administration. Appointments: "He would have already made certain appointments but for the fact that certain political schemers in Washington undertook to have it apportioned among certain things, and the President does not intend to do business with them or permit them to profit politically by what he does. Vermont Ave. Baptist Laid Trap Bai Vermont Ave. Baptist Church Members Laid Trap Baited With $100 D. C. Church Officials Wanted to Know if Money in Selecting New Pastor WASHINGTON. D. C.-Signedelson. This statements were made Tuesday by Joseph H. Maxwell and William Washington telling the story of the trap they laid to find out whether money could be used in influencing the investigating committee in its work toward the selection of a pastor to church to succeed the late Rev. James E. Willis. In their statements they exonerated those who was under consideration for the pastorate, of any complicity in the trap. Rev. Mr. Henderson also made statement. Those who are under consideration are the Rev. C. T. Murray of Pittsburgh, Pa. the Rev. J. B. Adams of Brooklyn, N. Y. and the Rev. C. M. Allen of Franklin, Va. STATEMENT. The statement Maxwell and Washington as follows: "The pulpit committee recommended at the last church meeting Rev. C. T. Murray. Rev. B. Adams was questioned relative to the method by which the choice had been made.

Statement: Appointments Ministerial Committee Enters Afro Anti-Jim Crow Campaign. Conductor No. 77 Says Colored Not Accustomed to Ride. Save for a mild suggestion that colored people were not accustomed to ride on bus lines here, a committee of Baptist ministers found no bar to boarding Charles street busses and found conductors pleasant, they told the AFRO-AMERICAN, Tuesday. Following discussion of the bus station Sunday, the Baptist minister appointed a committee comprising the Rev. S. H. James, pastor of Leadenhall Baptist Church; the Rev. A. J. Green, pastor of Grace Memorial, Bishop of Birmingham and the Rev. A. J. Payne, Enon; to make a first hand investigation. Charles, Street For their first series of rides, the four ministers, divided into two groups, selected the Charles street lines. Board bus No. 111, manned by conductor No. 77, the Rev. Mr. Greene and Rev. R. W. Dowd. When they entered, the conductor told them that colored people were not accustomed to riding the bus. What do you mean?" queried the ministers. "If colored people are not allowed to ride, I will get off; do you want me to get off?" "Oh, no," said the conductor, pleasantly, "you might as well stay on The two pastor's rode downtown and then boarded bus No. 113, manned by Conductor No. 75, on the rear deck. No objection was made; then book seats near the midcube of the bus. Makes Round Trip Meanwhile, the Rev. A. J. Payne and the Rev. B. F. Jackson boarded a bus terminating at 33rd street and Chasin's Place. The experience, by the conductor, showed the usual courtesy. They also took seats well up in the vehicle and rode to the end of the line where they boarded another bus and retreated. In an interview with President Emmons of the United Railway, the committee from the Baptist conference reported the president as saying, "We are brothers. The buses are operated for the public and you are a part of the public. We need your business. There are no regulations on the bus. We are viding for Jim-Crowism. If anything happens in the future, if you will let me know I will have it corrected." Mayor Silent When asked what his attitude was towards the use of the public streets for the bus, he colored citizens from some of their carriers. Mayor Browner stained that he preferred not to make a statement on the matter as it was for the Public Service Commission to handle. (Continued on page two) son. This was done not to bring about Rev. Mr. Henderson's election, but to make him the president of Johnson accepted the money and had Rev. Mr. Henderson to return. Rev. Mr. Henderson knew nothing about this. "This statement is made to clear the situation and prevent any breath of suspicion upon the good name of Rev. Mr. Henderson, whom we believe to be a gentleman and honest and sincere. CAUGHT AND PAD. "We acknowledge that we laid the trap which caught Johnson and paid him with our money. We believe that Rev. Mr. Henderson declared that Rev. Mr. Henderson was in no way connected with it nor did anything that would reflect upon his integrity. I am glad my name was not recommended by the pulpit committee of the Vermont Avenue Baptist church. Unfortunately, we was invited back as a pastor, and I reaffirm it now that I have one of the best pulpits in the country and can stay there as long as I please, provided I behave myself. Mr. Maxwell and Mr. Washington joined with other members of the church in denying that there was a near riot at the church meeting electing a pastor, as was published in several papers last week.

Howard, half-blinded and suffocated, groaned through smoke when he added the voices in front of him. Partly dazed, Howard reached forward. Instead of finding persons he took hold of a radio. Burrowing the instrument off, Howard continued on in the house when he heard a voice saying, 'Hello, hello!'

COLUMBIA LAD MARRIES WHITE COLUMBIA LAD MARRIES WHITE Bridegroom Had Honeymoon Apartment Rented Three Months in Advance. PARENT GIVES OKEY "I'll Take Him in With Open Arms," Says Pa-in-law. NEW YORK. — Miss Edith E. Sproul, 21, white, pathologist and medical student at the College of Physicians and Surgeons, a branch of Columbia university, last Thursday became Mrs. Jerome S. Peterson, wife of a colored medical student at the university. The Petersons were married Wednesday in the municipal chapel by Deputy City Clerk Joseph J. McCormick. The bride's father, Albert E. Sproul, white, who has a photograph, also did a portrait of the pregnant dessert, gave the couple his parental blessing. He has four children. Two sons are married. "My children have the privilege of choosing whom they want. They're all intelligent and professional people." My children put Peterson into the family with open arms. Peterson, it was learned from the surgeon where he lives, rented an apartment there three months ago. He rented it for himself and wife, Superintendent Taylor said. The bride of father, referring to his son-in-law Peterson, added: "I am very well known." When Mrs. Sproul who died seven years ago, was alive we welcomed into our home, everybody regardless of race, religion or color. "I never in any way have made selection in marriage for my children." I feel it is wrong to hinder a man's progress because of heredity and environment. "The younger generation is far ahead of us old folk. They are self-sufficient and care of an age that is not heredity." "My daughter is the master of her own soul. "I'll help my son-in-law in any way I can.

CHANGED LOVERS OFT Harlem Knew Dolores Ford as Girl of Uncertain Morals, Who Drank Heavily. DRUG STORY AMUSING New White Affinity Cause of Move Toward Separation. NEW YORK.—The apparent excitement in white circles over the marriage of Eugene Newton, gentleman of the sporting world and of color, to one Dolores Elizabeth Ford, white, daughter of William Ford, millionaire director of the Owens-Illinois Glass company of Toledo, Ohio, and Glassboro, New Jersey, has been of little interest to Harlemites. Under all the stories to arouse sympathy in her favor, according to the account by the most intimate friends, the facts still remain that, after all, she was only a person of uncertain morals who drank heavily, changed her affections often and belonged to that tribe of white women who frequent Eastern cabarets in search of thrills. This particular one ended in Newark, November 13, 1928, when she met to Eugene Newton, whom she had met in the Lenox Club, 652 Lenox avenue, where he was employed. She was given by her confidante, Mary Mathews, a address, it is quite plain that in the spring, the temperamental Miss Ford became infatuated with Louis Mathews, and consequently considered her husband Louis Mathews of Richmond, the handsome subject and partner of Tom Garrett, a hypnotist, and consequently considered her husband a lover. However, she decided not to let a mere husband, white or black uset her love affair, so she abruptly cloped to Vermont and then to Montreal to run out and out, and Mr. Fords secretary brought Dolores back to New York. She considered herself very much in love with Louis — result: her fear to escape him. S250 Monthly Allowance No doubt. Mrs. Newton was also influenced by the fact that her father, who was a graduate and would show his displeasure by cutting off the $250 per month which, it was stated, was her allowance and not nearly sufficient for "a girl reason." Mr. Newton was not dragged. The attempt to prove that邹福斯 Ford was not herself when she married her Negro husband is quite amusing. The story that she was told was well told, and she was dropped and a weird voice of voodoo spell, no doubt inspired by the reading of Black Magic, was substantiated. The truth is, however, the beautiful Dolores likes to get married. At fifteen, she married George Krebhel and reports that she married a student Smith College. Then, she tried Boyd Agin, an actor, from whom she got a冉 divorce. Next, came Eugene Newton, who married his hushes to (Contagued on pane 11).

But the trout and the croakers and the spots in this town, known as the welder of a wildebeest and hook. A few miles up the York river at Cappapahosi, Dr. Moton has his summer home. It is a rarely beautiful place of a dozen or more acres, highly cultivated full of good things to eat, a wheat field which yields a bountiful crop, and a large oyster bed which brings a substantial profit each year. A beautiful lawn slope down to the edge of the river at the point of his home is four miles wide. A fine beach, a group of row boats, and a gasoline launch give some idea of how members of the Moton family while away their summers, for as soon as they come out at Tuskegee, the family treks to the beach and those organizations which have had difficulty in persuading the doctor to travel many miles to speak during the hot months may blame it on the lure of the delightfully quiet surroundings paired with the food which used to be in addition to being an educator, is proud of her fame as a cook, prepares.

TEARS FLOW AS PLEA CAPITAL NOW HAS 3 IS MADE BY FILIPINO DEPUTY MARSHALS Manuel Roxas, Young Filipino Solon, Says Countrymen Want Self Government REFUTES WHITE SPEAKER The Two Clash in Senate Finance Committee. WASHINGTON, D. C. — Tears trickled from the eyes of members of the Senate Finance Committee, now engaged in its tariff hearings, as they listened to a heart-stirring appeal for the freedom of the Philippines made by a youthful appearing Filipino Tuesday morning. Manuel Roxas, speaker of the House of Representatives of the Philippines and Chairman of the Philippine Commission, objected to the testimony of John Switzer, white, of New York, who appeared before the committee representing the Philippine-American Commission on the Filipinos 'wanted independence but were praying that they would not get it.' Want Independence With tears streaming down his face, Roxas protested earnestly that the independence which his people sought was "not only on principle, but also in practice," the meaning of a people to be free, but because we sincerely believe that only in freedom will we be able to work out our destinies. "We are grateful!" he continued, "for the United States has done for us and we love this country, but we love our country more and we love freedom more." Roxas was sent to this country to protest the placing of import duties or restrictions on goods from the Arabic empire entering the United States. 90 Per C- He asked that Congress authorize a plebiscite in the islands on the independence question, declaring that the people did not favor freedom he would abandon his efforts in that direction. He also predicted that if the question were carried to the people, it would favor freedom he would abandon his efforts in favor of independence. He told the story of his learning the A.B.C.'s on the island which wisely affected the committeeman. He said that he was left fatherless before birth by the tyranny of Spain, and that each year, the committee anniversaries the same sword devotion to the freedom of his country. Both Republican and Democratic members of the committee agreed in his testimony, many expressing surprise that the Filipinos should be so sincere in their plea for freedom.

Colored Women Led Way to New Freedom for Servants European Nordics Formerly Worked as Cooks and Maids, Spending Entire Time Under Employer’s Roof. Colored Workers Insisted on Going Home for the Night. NEW YORK—Colored women are responsible for the new freedom in domestic service, and for the work of our generation to behave as if they belonged to a social order which has entirely passed away. One might as well say Alonzo Johnson. You must business to West Point. It ought to be your ambition to be a faithful Negro butler. “A certain number of Negroes remain in domestic service, and it has never seemed to me that fundamentally ignable in spirit. But there was a need of readjustment, and in New York, at any rate, it has been the negro who raised the standard. Proud Nordics from the north of Europe worked as cooks and maids under conditions which a woman from Harlem would not tolerate, even the sheer disproportion of any such assertion lies in his fondness "Of course, certain worldwide economic currents have been responsible for the creation of a living wage in domestic service. Led the Way "But it is the Negro woman who has led the way in winning the new freedom for the servant. She has had her led free from oppression, and she would go back to her own home and return the next morning. Not for her the rent-free room, with its obsession with the past, but for some reason some task or other while she was resting. Even at great financial sacrifice colored servants have held to this essential innovation." "It is this factor which has restored self-respect to domestic service, for no man or woman can eat or drink without a job or work at some point during the day or evening it is possible for him to stretch his hands above his head and say, 'Good work, good life.' Before tomorrow other phases of the race situation, Mr. Brown says: Uncle Tom "The leading editorial in an Alabama newspaper recently was given over to high praise of a colored citizen of the town of Jasper, North Carolina, of John Swift, born slave and all his life the servant of the Mallory family. And the editor could not resist the temptation of rounding off the tribute with a few mournors, but the one who seemed to him not the least like Jin Swift, Even the New York Times, which quoted from the Selma (Ala.) Times Journal, added at least a hint of misgiving on its account about the passing of a type. "There is, said the Times, 'a large body of opinion among both Negroes and whites in the South, a virtue of Jim, is still unable to lament the passing of a purely servant type as the only Negro unit. They ask why it is not understood much appreciated. It is true that they offer the appraising Negro little more encouragement than they have received, equally benefits not yet made clear—to look down; on such men as Jim Swift, of Selma. The Tum Tum line is one of the editorial page speaks for the organization and not an individual, and yet it is not impossible in this case to peer thru the anonyms which the men who penned the comment came from below the Mason and Dixon line. They devour an attention that the men who penned the course—if I'm wrong. The attitude is so wholly characteristic of the South. You simply can see why the question is alluded to any question which concerns the Negro. Drive him into a hole in an argument and he will seek refuge in the South, much more than he loved the Negro manmy who nursed him when he was a child Old Butler "Or there will be words of fervent praise for some old butler who reclaimed New York in all reason, is there any sense or justice in asking the modern Negro to emulate Jim Swift and others who may have been malted the factors in days which are gone. The white folks sat on the porch, and the black folks on the ladder, and sat Sam with us unless as his kidneys to denote age and fidelity. At least, that is the way it is done in the play. How are you Sam? said his city attorney, and there was good will all around. "But the Negro of today couldn't Hotel Employees Let Out KANSAS CITY. Mo. (ANP.)—In the twelve waiters, porters and cooks at the Hydre Park Hotel were handed their checks and told their services were no longer wanted. here the management was issued to the management. "In 50 years the South has changed out from drummer boy to brigadier, and while this process of transformation was going on how could anybody expect the Negro to stand still, but the Kassa' at appropriate intervals? "Please do not be particularly patient with any Southerner who tells you that it is monstrous to charge him with unfairness toward him, but give him the right of any such assertion lies in his fondness for his old mammy. After all, even in the old days a very small percentage of the Negroes in the South were engaged in domestication and charity tribute to Jim or Sam or Aunt Sally is merely teatting that he bore good will to a tiny proportion of an entire race. "The South would like to have the Negro maintain a good humored sensitivity toward the white man. If this condition still existed there would be no need of klans and the blacks, so that the Negro could southernize so that this condition is impossible much as he would like to have it. The Negro who goes into a profession or industry is no longer dependent upon the white man, so that the Negro and he would have to be a histrionic genius to simulate the adoring attitude of old Jim."

The Woman's Tonic CHICAGO, Ill. (ANP)—The manner in which he has handled cases of reckless driving and speeding in the "Speaders' Court" here has stamped Judge Albert B. George, the only Negro sitting in the Municipal Courts, as a real threat to those who refuse to obey the traffic laws and endanger the lives of pedestrians and other motorists. During his tenure Judge George has enforced the law, regardless of PETER BROWN the position, political affiliation, family connection, creed of the offenders and thus this has gained a meaning "hard-bolled" with speeders and eckless drivers. conditions mean nothing if the w is broken the aw-breaker must pay the fine or Judge George serve the sentence. An example of the judge's strict adherence to the law was brought against him by Dr H I Van Freedman, a white physician, was haled before the judge by the cops, charged with speeding. The doctor told the court that he was hurrying to the bedside when he was delayed and due to the delay occasioned when he was stopped by an officer, the patient died. While the judge sympathized with the bereaved family, he decided to adjourn the office, adding his duty and finned the judge's $25 and costs for breaking the law.

FAIR ELECTIONS IMPOSSIBLE IN LIBERIA Ex-Presidential Candidate Proposes Election Commission for 1931. KING IS FLAYED Liberian President Thought Seeking Fourth Term. Fair elections are impossible under present conditions in the West African Republic of Liberia, Thos. J. R. Faulkner told the AFRO-AMERICAN, Tuesday. Mr. Faulkner, a civil engineer, builder of Liberia's lighting and telegraph system, owner of its biggest hotel and ice plant, is visiting the U. S. until October. Two years ago he was a candidate for president on the People's Party ticket opposing President C. D. B. King, (Whig), who was relected, Mr. Faulkner says, by padding voting lists and stuffing ballot boxes until the 10,000 eligible voters in the nation cast 244,000 votes in the last election. To remedy this, Mr. Faulkner suggests a commission to have charge of the 1931 presidential election. It would consist of a representative of each party, and a person to be appointed by them. Unless there is brought forward some remedy, Mr. Faulkner adds, President King is likely to fraudulently keep himself in office indefinitely. He is alleged in violation of the country's unwritten law limiting a president to two terms. No Census No government census has been taken since President King has been in office. Mr. Faulkner charges, despite the law requiring such enumeration. Representatives have been elected the law number increased despite the lack of any census figures upon which to base apportionment. Waste President King's regime has been one of waste, graft and fraud, Mr. Faulkner alleges, pointing out the high salaries of President King ($15,000 a year), of the thirty-one legislators who are paid $2,000 a year for five weeks' work, and the high pensions under a loan agreement and drawing salary and maintenance of $100,000 a year.

Exclusive Colored Dance Hall Opened in Paris Whites Are Admitted Only Upon Invitation of West Indians and Africans. PARIS, (Special to the Afro-American)—While talk of color discrimination imported by Americans is one of the principal topics, the Negroes in Paris, who are mostly from Africa and the West Indies have opened a dance-hall to which white persons can go only on invitation by some colored person. This, it is said, became necessary,ry from the crowding of the now famous Bal Negre on Rue Blomet. A year ago of the hundred or so present on Saturday nights, there were but five or six white persons. Then several newspapers discovered it and now the malpity are white persons of all grades of society. A writer in L-Intransigent, one of the leading dailies recently wrote an article on the Bal Negre and illustrated it with a chart showing the difference in color between the dance hall in 1928, and 1929. me from taking part in such a performance. . . .

Yes, indeed; there are many of them during the last six months that I have not been here? I look for them, in vain, on the ground-floor or in the balcony. Ah! at last here's a dozen of them, but they do not count them, but they do include everyone, except there. It was they who were inviting the few white people to dance; now it is the white people who are inviting the few Negroes to dance. "My friend vexed. I had proclaimed him some Negroes.

The greatest discredit and menace to this country, the letter states, is race and color prejudice and visitation upon Americans of color near at hand of resentment and rage over the criminal act of one or two individuals of the race. The body is asked to study the whole prejudice, lawlessness and non-enforcement of laws for color protection. The document was signed by Wm. Monroe Trotter, secretary of the League.

But onl to these two has so far come the op- portunity to write thelr names in large letters in The book of American education as principal of ‘Tuskegee Institute. ‘What these two men have done in an institu- tion as great and as rich as Tuskegee, it is rea- sonable to suppose that other Hampton gradu- fates might do at Hampton itself if given the chance. ‘For this reason, the AFRO-AMERICAN cn- dorses the suggestion of the Crisis Magazine that Hampton's trustees should name a colored prin- ‘ipal to succeed Dr. James E. Gregg, resigned, This, according to Dr. W. B. B. DuBols, involves two difeulties: (1) "Can a colored principal re- tain that proportion of white teachers so neces- sary to normal racial adjustment? (2) Will the White trustees trust a black man to adininister eight million doljars in endowment?” Howard University answers both questions al once, Dr. Mordecai Johnson has a faculty com- posed of members of both races. Next year, iso President. John Hope of the Atlanta-More- house combined colleges ill have such a faculty. “Tuskexee’s endowment is nearly equal {0 Hampton's and Dr. Johnson at Howard had an annual budget in i928 of over a million dollars compared with Hamptnn’'s seven hundred thous- and doliars. "This would seem to indicate that Hampton trustees OUGHT to be able to trust, a black prin- sips. Whether they WILL, is « diferent mat cr. Tt is clearly evident, also, that a sultable col- ored principal can be found, as Howard, Tuske- Bee, and Atlanta-Morehouse have demonstrated. ‘Ti Hampton in sixty-one years has put its hands on 9,000 students without today being able to find one sufficiently trustworthy, equipped and eager to stand in the shoes of Armstrong and Prissell. we humbly suggest that Hampton close {ts doors to students tomorrow and devote its time and money (o raising pigs.

RECORD STAR TOO Doesn't Believe in Luck, but in Hard Work. NEW YORK.—In the great galaxy of stars who have shone in the moving picture firmament, none can boast a more meteoric rise to fame than Victoria Spivey, Houston, Texas girl, who plays the part of "Missy Rose" in "Hallelujah," all-Negro talkie which is to have its world premiere early in August at the Embassy theatre, here. The part of "Missy Rose" called for a shy, natural counter girl and it was named helplessly as well as sparkling native intelligence that attracted the attention of King Vidor, the Director, when he recruited his cast in New York last October. **Art Requirement** Miss Spiyle is entrusted with the sympathetic picture of the picture and it admirably. Every scene is acted so simply, naturally those who have witnessed the previews of the film declare her case of the finds of the year and prophesy the future for young woman who has risen from obscurity to commence in little more than three years. Is Okeh Record Star Though new to the silver sheet, Miss Spivey is by no means a stranger to the American public, especially the darker portion, as she is one of cords and her 'blues are known as the featured singers on the Okeh Beat, the most typical, on record. She has had more than sixty many of them having been published, and has made to date fifty records, the majority of which are her own compositions. Had Early Struggle Although well on the way to success, Miss Spivey remembers days of privation and want when, as one of eight fatherless children, she continued to secure a good substantial lunch from her little schoolmates by trading five cents' worth of dill pickles for their appetizing sandwiches. Her wardrobe in those days consisted of two dresses, one blue polka do collar and the one were mannequin when her only meal was musical and baking. Not her musical the mother sacrificed to give the child, Victoria, music lessons. Complete ease in learning it prevented much progress along that line, so the lessons were abandoned. At the age of twelve the subject of this sketch had an opportunity to fill the position of pianist at the Lincoln Center in her home town the position vacated by a good friend who suggested that Miss Spli.vey try to hold down the position. The aspirant could read a single note of music. This, however was not known to the manager of the instrument. In order to conceal her ignorance Ms Spivey hit on a very ingenious scheme. She would go to Kress's select a piece of music and played, listening to her friend, fbr, then purchase a copy walk around a chair in return and select another copy of the same song and have it played again, refuse to buy it and rush home humming the songs it on her piano tenor to the theatre for work. However the manager got to work on her little scheme and out of a job. Venture to St. Louis A few years passed during which the family moved to Moberly, Missouri. The girl who was destined to play the ingeneue in the first Negro moving picture became noted thru the community as a most remarkable singer of Blues and real songs, and determining to take mark in the world to St. Louis for a hearing one of the Leading composers. To her astonishment she was immediately given a contract which has since been renewed with a raise and she is rated as the company's best Says Grit Counts "Grit, pure grit," says Miss Spivey. "is the thing that counts in trying to get ahead. Whatever you want, you want had enough and hard enough, long enough, you really get. Spend your time in trying to improve rather than envy and talking about somebody. Luck? I don't believe a word of it. Then we know our worth to the very last inch. There is no withholding of just deserts or overpaying. We get just what we deserve. When ever a fellow fails to make the game to get there, nothing can be wrong with the individual. When we get right things will come right and to stay." CONVICT SINGERS ON AIR RALEIGH, N. C. — A mixed choir of 18 convicts in the state prison here, broadcast a sacred concert over station WPTF, last week. So good was the program that it is probable that the singers will find a regular spot on the prison's weekly program. ROYAL "Lady of the Pavements"; "The Squall."

She succeeds and the struggle of the cabaret girl to rectify matters once she has learned of the plot forms the main bulwark of the story. In the support cast are George Fawcett, Albert Conti, William Bakewell, Frank Pangborn, Henry Armetta and several hundred courtiers marches.

Childers in the school of music at Howard University, and a member of Zeta Phi Beta Sorority, and Mr. Morris Davis, a student at Morgan College. Both of these visiting artists sang acceptably and the large gathering of members listened with descent and rant, attention. Miss Smothers, who will be presented in a vocal recital at Metropolitan A.M.E. Church, Washington, early in November of this year, sang with much feeling and understanding, Dudley Buck's "My Redeemer and My God," and "Got a Home in Dat Rock," a Negro spiritual, arranged by Harry T.

"Kke," as he is generally known, spent many years studying piano, harmony and composition, and is today quite skilled in the art of making music. Moreover, Mr. Bannister has given much of his spare time to the history of the art and today he is conversant with many branches of music. Mr. Bannister has studied music because he has loved it. He at no time, as far as the writer knows, has attempted music as a profession. He is truly an AMATEUR. PLAN MANY CHANGES FOR D.C. THEATRES Talkies May be Installed in the Howard Theatre on T Street.

Howard Young Visits Howard E. Young, now of New York City, is visiting Baltimore for a few weeks Mr. Young for a long time made Baltimore his home and at one time was prominently identified with public education here. During his sojourn here, Mr. Young worked continually for the betterment of music. He was chiefly concerned with the development of young people who seemed to have any spark of musical talent. He was ever ready and willing to give young musicians a chance and he would even go far enough to make opportunities for fortunate young musicians.

BYARS IN CHARGE Colonnade, Lincoln, Booker T to be Renovated. WASHINGTON, D. C. — Renovations and redecorations will be made in the Lichtman theatres, A. E. Lichtman, managing director, announced last Monday. At the same time, he stated that there had been no change in the position of Rufus G. Byars, supervisor of the Lichtman theatres. Mr. Byars is still with the organization in his same capacity. Beginning August 1 a popularity contest will be conducted at the Lincoln Theatre. The winner will be given a Chrysler roadster. Colonnade The Lincoln Colonnade is being transformed into one of the prettiest dance auditoriums in the country. Mr. Lightman says he is spending about $7,500 for this purpose. The floor is being repaired, scraped and highly polished. An upholstered settee of red and black chairs, a bass drum and the hall. Ballcay draperies will form semi-private box affairs with a table and four chairs in each compartment. New lighting effects are being installed. A mirror ball will be placed in the center. Eight or ten spot lights will be thrown on it from every angle of the hall. Clusters of lights will be hidden in the ceiling. A fan-shaped back ground tinselled in gold and silver will be built for the band stance which will accommodate the dancers. The soda fountain will be extended the full width of the hall. Two uniformed attendants and an electrician to regulate the lights will serve at every dance. A canopy at greatly reduced rental may be had. Theatre For the Lincoln Theatre, Mr. Lightman plans, a complete change in the marquee. A new electric sign will be erected by the Claude Neon Sign Company. The lobby and front of the house will be decorated. New carpets will be laid throughout the entire house, and a new and novel stage setting will replace the present one. Broadway At the Broadway the present sound equipment, and it has been installed Lightman interests purchased this house, will be removed and the Western Electric installation, which is the best on the market, will be put in. This change in equipment will cost $7,000. The Olympic Theatre, U street west of Fourteenth, which has recently been purchased and renamed the Booker T., will undergo a complete renovation and redecoration. A new marquee will be built. A beautiful Claude Neon electric sign will be erected, and the entire front of the house will be changed. The box office will be moved out to the street line. New carpets will be laid Western Electric sound equipment at a cost of $10,000. The store setting will be put in with a portrait of the late Booker T. Washington in a setting over the screen. The Booker T. will be a first-run house immediately after the downtown theatres. Its policy will be similar to the Columbia Theatre. A picture will stay there as long as the public wants it. "The thought behind our taking over that house," Mr. Lichtman said, "is the fact that there are so many pictures that will be made that would be able to be shown on U street that we see. That table will show the best pictures available and with the Lincoln and Broadway will open up an avenue for more entertainment." Howard Policy The policy of the Howard at this time has not been determined. The program will probably call for road shows and presentations, playing road shows when they are available. Shelton Brooks will probably return this fall. Talking pictures may be installed. If sound equipment is out in, it will be another first run house with presentations on the The Afro-American, Baltimore, Saturday, July 27, 1929 Fletcher Henderson The Rosalia has just been renovated this summer.

Newton Won't Talk Mr. Newton has made no statement. He, no doubt, believes in the old adage—a minute of silence is worth hours of explanation. His acquaintances claim that he is a gentleman, and that any brutality is quite at variance with his personality. He is in his late thirties, of medium build, olive complexion, light eyes, attractive, but not handsome. He dresses extremely well, but conservatively. He speaks French, English and a little Spanish and is said to live managed a magazine in Paris and the popular Chez Florence. That a man should wish to live with his wife can hardly be looked upon as abnormal and that he could have successfully passed away in aguise at the place where he worked was well known, is a bit fetched. The latest report is that Mrs. Newton is attemptig to prove that her Eugene has a wife, also white, in Paris, whom he neglected to take the trouble to divorce before falling for her wiles. Said She was Colored The annulment would be comparatively simple, it is said, because of the sworn statements cited on the marriage license issued to the couple. The heirs, married twice before declared that they had never been married and that she was colored. According to records, she was actually married when only 15 years old and a student in Smith College, Northampton, Mass. Newton also declared that he had investigated the Ford investigators are said to have discovered that his first wife, who was white, died only four years ago in Albany. The death certificate listed her as Mrs. Laurie Newton, her brother, Brent. The证人 said to have been from Chicago, although little is known about her. Settlement Offered Newton has said nothing about the ceremony or the present legal activities of the Ford family. According to Harlem reports, he has been offered a job as a security guard if he is quiet and disregards any offers to talk to reporters.

"THE DESERT SONG AT REGENT ALL WEEK "THE DESERT SONG AT REGENT ALL WEEK Passionate Romance of African Desert Country, Boasts of Great Cast. MUSIC IS FEATURE Chorus, Soloists and Orchestra Add Beauty via Vitaphone "The Desert Song," the Warner Brothers' screen version of the familiar operetta by that name, will play all of next week at the Regent Theatre. The photoplay, taken from one of the most tuneful and most popular museums ever shown on the stage, is made vivid by the choral and orchestral effects which bring Sigmund Romberg's music, with all its litling charm and beautiful solo numbers, to the movie audiences. The scenes throughout the picture are especially beautiful, ranging from an extensive French military post in Morocco to encampments of the Red Shadow and his band of native Riffs in rocky passes of the mountains, and far-flung vistas of the volcanic sand of the great African deserts, with the Riff playing them they go riding their magnificent horses at breakneck speed into the setting sun. The story of "The Desert Song" is laid against the background of the Moroccan desert, and is full of heart throbs, many of which are from the Rif Shale for Margot the French girl who is strangely attracted by the masked bandit chieftain, but has no eyes for his other Pierre Birabeau. The great mess hall of a French Moroccan cathedral, throughed with their wives and other women of the establishment, forms one of the colorful settings of this film. Entertainment at this gathering is supplied by a group of Nautch girls headed by the caric Azuri, and flery Moroccan dancing girl. It is in this setting, too; that the entire chorus of one hundred voices is heard in a spirited rendition of the beautiful French Marching Song, one of the most inspiring songs ever written for a musical play. Throughout the production, in addition to the dialogue of the characters, are the songs and choruses which have served to "music" the most successful operetta in the history of the stage. LOCAL FOLK FLOCK TO BROWN'S GROVE Evincing their confidence in the nautical efficiency of Captain George Brown and his crew of the steamer "Avalon", increasing crowds of Baltimoreans have been taking advantage of the opportunity of making a water trip to Brown's Grove. Day and moonlight excursions, alike, have been in their praise and the sightful trips down the bay and of the amusements afforded at the grove. Among the major organizations that will go to Brown's Grove next week are the Masons, who will go Monday; the Knights of Ebenezer Church, Tuesday; and members of Trinity A.M.E. Church, who have picked Wednesday for an outing at the hay resort. AT WONDERLAND PARK MANY HEAR CONCERTS Popularity of the Sunday afternoon band concerts at Wonderland Park is being seen in the large crowds that have been going out to the big amusement center.

A number of picnics have been booked for next week and the management promises several more special attractions before the summer season is over. The week the crowds were by the spectacle of Burning a Woman Alive." Just what the next novelly will be, Manager Relley would not say, but promises that it will be a big feature.

Music is good and gives the aver excellently cued music for every While the tone instruments in moving picture theatres have added much in entertainment, it is the consensus of opinion that taking pictures of theatrical scenes is not a good idea. much in entertainment, it is the consensus of opinion that talking pictures are still in an experimental stage and that "talkies" are not talkies yet. The various sound-synchronizing instruments seemingly have been able to get good results in musical tones, but they have not yet been able to give modulation and quality to the spoken voice. In the average talkies, most of the voices are in individual lines, and this is true of the women's voices, only that the movie-tone producers gives the female voice a masculine tone. This disadvantage, of course, will in time be overcome, but for the present, at least, the talks just don't click, and you often leave the theatre thinking what a good picture that would have been if you had just had to use your eyes instead of trying to make your ears tone up or down the unnatural vocal lines. In the movie, the producer is said, the tonal music is good and gives the average theatre the opportunity to have excellently cued music for every situation in the play. About "Slices of Life." Those who witnessed "Hearts in Dixie," the recent movie in which Clarence Muse, Baltimore product, plays such a prominent part, will remember the opening wherein a white man, done up in the proverbial "colonel" attire, comes out and gets off something about a "slice of life" preparing his audience, no doubt, for what they are about to receive. assed "Hearts in Dixie," the more important product, plays such a big wherein a white man, done out and gets off something audience, no doubt, for what that most of the play-hits And in most of them, somehow they reached the palates of aaid for "Hearts in Dixie," that in characters and the obvious episodes in their entirety, ever, with most of these slices the most important connecting in Dixie" there were no racial stopped his play before that he to the next slice of this that young hopeful to the missed the chance of his life romance to its natural conclusion in Dixie," the recent movie in which plays such a prominent part, white man, done up in the proper sets off something about a "silice" doubt, for what they are about.

Just of these slices of life, is that the important connecting links. Strange were no racial complications. Day before that happened. There next slice of this life which resultful to the northern school. Hence of his life in not weaving a natural conclusion. This reminds us that most of the play-hits this year have been slices of Negro life. And in most of them, somehow, some of the slices fell off the plate before they reached the palates of the American theatre audience. But it must be said for "Hearts in Dixie," that, with the exception of overdrawing certain characters and the obvious white viewpoint, it does represent some episodes in their entirety. The trouble, however, with most of these slices of life, is that they leave out some of the most important connecting links. Strangely enough, in Heir the Dixie the play has racial complications. The author of the piece stopped his play before that happened. There are very who would like to see the next slice of this life which resulted from the sending of that young hopeful to the northern school. The fact is, the author missed the chance of his life in not weaving the skein of that child romance to its natural conclusion.

THE ILLUSTRATED FEATURE SECTION OU HENRY, WHO DEFENDED TWO COLORED SCHOOL- As Told To UTHAI VINCENT WILCOX Correspondent and Special Writer The girl who could inspire a baseball team to dig the tall, tough grass from a vacant school lot to make a diamond; who dared to remind a governor that his lunch was getting cold; who didn't hesitate to befriend two unpopular youngsters—this girl has become the first lady of the land. The lines taken from one of the Victorian poets about "beautiful hands" are those that do things that are noose and brave and true," frequently have a way of working themselves out in real life. Perhaps in this instance was just such copy-book maxims that assisted in inspiring Lou Henry in those early days of schoolgirl enthusiasm. Possibly, the fact that she up in the California town named in honor of John Greenleaf Whittier became the teacher of the students of sociology decide, if they can. Wherever the impulses originated, the fact remains that the schoolgirl friends of Mrs. Harbert Howe have been the sources of qualities of mind and heart that often lead to high places. The town of Whittier, California, was first founded by sturdy Quakers seeking a place to live and advantages for their children under the blue skies of California. The town was still young, with the town being the mustard fields, when the Henrys moved in from Waterloo, Iowa. The Whittier of today, grown prosperous from the citrus fruits and the oil wells that dot the region, recalls No. 349 South Painter avenue, where the Henrys lived. The little cottage forty years ago served as a station on the road to the city, where young girl Lou Henry grew to early maturity in the normal atmosphere of a small town. She was a lover of the out-of-doors. She tramped with her falter, although the fields and over the low hills. Lou Henry at the age of 15.

Briggs, now ninety-two years old, remembers the little girl, long hair braided, dressed in a hunting-suit that her father had specially ordered from distant Iowa.

The hat some way used to get knocked off as Lou proved through the hills and on the road. Or it, and snapped it under her chin. She had a practical mind when it came to clothes.

A Friend in Need "One afternoon in school class in the old Bailey Street School, which she attended along with all the other boys and girls of the town, she fainted at the chloroforming of a cat. The teacher was conducting a demonstration. I don't know whether it was the smell of the chloroform or the sight of the blood, but faint she did.

Whatever the reason, the friendship of father and daughter in those long afternoon walks was a wonderful example to the whole town." The lessons learned in the hours spent on the playgrounds are said to have as much or greater influence than those spent at dask or blackboard. At least Walter E. Butler, now escrow officer of the Whittier Home Savings Bank, can not forget an incident that he remembers when at the Bailey Street School Lou Henry had the courage to befriend two Negro lads, smaller and younger than she. They had become the target for an increasing amount of petty persecution. To the school the Negro boys had to go, but each day found it harder. "Especially Joe," Mr. Butler recalled. "He could hardly endure the all too pointed taints. I remember one day during excess, when Lou, unable to stand the apparent injustice of the barbed remarks, rushed to Joe's assistance when she found him sobbing. Her gesture was enough to encourage the little fellow and to discourage the other. She said, but little, yet she did all she could to see the youngsters, Joe and Charlie, were not longer abused." It was during those school days that the need of a baseball team became noticed. The Bailey Street School wanted a chance to demonstrate its prowess and skill on the diamond.

ALEXANDER DUMAS Student of Human Nature and One of The World's Most Original Thinkers "I decided to become an author and started to write." Bv J. A. EOGERS LEXANDER Dumas, fils, last of the great Dumas- s, was the foremost French dramatist of the nineteenth century, and one of the most original thinkers of all time. To him, perhaps, more than any other writer who ever lived, belongs the honor of bringing realism to the stage. With genius he completely transformed the theatre, turning it away from empty romance and sounding phrase to life, to serious thought and purpose. Dumas' unvarying theme the was love, and the world, the most analysts of that passion. No secret of the love-life was hid from him. "I decided to become an Like a deep-sea diver he explored the recesses of the human heart and held up what he found, to the gaze of the world. Great Sorrow Dumas' early life was marred by a great sorrow, and this, acting on a keenly sensitive nature, did more to shape his career. Life has many mysterious ways of accomplishing ends. When it has some great destiny in store for us, it usually awakens us by wounding us, sometimes very deeply. And yet Dumas' sorrow was one that is regarded as ordinary by millions of individuals: He was illegitimate. His father, the great novelist, and begotten him at an humble man named Marie Lafontaine the time, the elder Dumas was hardly out of his teens, and was earning less than five dollars a week. He cruelly tainted the day and intensely proud Alexander about his birth. Perhaps that was their revenge for the fact that he so far outshone the cleverest of them. But whatever it was, the ornament used to decorate him until he stood without a peer as a writer on both. At the age on nine, his father, who was then winning considerable success as a dramatist, gave him his first role in his career. But the wound never healed—happily for humanity. The elder Dumas took the boy into the best salons of the day, where he astonished the elite with his vivacity, his wit, penetration, and originality. He took him also on his travels through Europe and North Africa. Brilliant Idler With his father earning so much wealth, Young Dumas became a brilliant writer. While he was imprisoned that threw him into literature. One morning he woke to find himself penniless. His creditors, descending on him had taken him ten thousand dollars—a great sum in those days. His father, spending two or three times his earnings, was in practically the same position, too. But into literature is best told in his own words: "I found myself one day," he said, "sitting sadly on a cane-seated chair in a dimly illuminated furnished room of the hotel where I had taken refuge. I had been driven out of my elegant apartment with everything seized and Beren as a Writer "I gave myself up to bitter reflection and mechanically I opened the drawer of the table. Inside were some stamped papers and a pad of writing paper by the last occupant. I took out the pad, and as I had no occupation and did not know what else to do. I decided to become an author, and started to write. And when he became the foremost writer of his time—wrote until he had won an immense fortune. Success, however, did not come with a rush. Indeed, time and again he found himself a music critic resolved never to touch them again. His first work—a book of poems—attracted some attention, but not overmuch. Later when he became famous, nicky were the first to publish his first edition of this work. The book collectors offered a high price for them. His next work, "The Sins of His Youth," won more success. He and his father had tasted together a new kind of Paris. The book was largely a recital of incidents in his own life. This was followed by his masterpiece, "Camille." As a novel, it went well, but as a play-its most effective form—the difficulties with it seemed endless, how this novel was turned into a play is interesting. Again it is a question of money. One day Dumas found himself penillelless in Marsellees. The idea came to him when he sat down and with a single spurt dashed off the first three acts "without an erasure." Returning to Paris, he finished the rest in five days. Finally, a theatre accepted him when he was a censor, who stepped in and barred it. Through the influence of a friend, he triumphed over the censors, then the theatre failed, followed soon after by the death of his friend. He led the actor to interest. Leont, leading actor of the day. But the latter returned the manuscript a few days later, greasy and smelling of poisonous compost. "What would I play such to," Leont lived to regret this. author and started to write." Disappointment Dumas, heart-broken, threw, the manuscript in the bottom of an old drawer, feeling sure that it would never be played. But destiny was yet to have its final play, months later. Dumas was walking on the boulevards when he spied an old friend, who invited him to have a drink. While he was drinking, Boufie, happening to pass, spied Dumas and came to speak to him. The conversation turned on the rejected play, and Boufie, saying that he needed to be in Dumas's place, promised to do what he could. But Boufie seemed to forget all about his promise. Months passed. Then the theatre at which he played moved. Boufie played. He thought of Dumas, and mentioned his play. The manager, rather dubious, finally agreed to try to play. But difficult difficulties it was finally presented. Success-at Last its success was instantaneous, and ards was obliged to name a family" was held the day after. Some of the most noted actresses have played it, among them being Sarah Barnhardt and Descilee. "Gamille" is also one of the Loremis for peras. "Hassan" for the peras, the late Rudolph Valentino, playing the part of Armand Duval. From this time on Dumas was famous. His father, too, had taken to novel writing, and was earning good on the top of the literary world. Each loved the other tenderly and yet no two men could be less alike in disposition. The older Dumas was gay, lolly, always in good humor; the younger being boiling and candid soul—an immoralist. Strict Moralist The younger was reserved and inclined to haughtiness, a stern moralist, an apostle of duty. He believed that his mission was to help him get into the path of right doing. Most of all, he believed in fidelity to the marriage vow, and insisted that the husband had a right to punish with his own hand the one who was in the path of one. Consided humanity by telling it wonderful tales; the other lashed it for its sins and called it to repentance. The other said of the son: "Alexander loves preaching overmuch." The son said of the father: "My father is a big child that I had when I was very little." The older had squandered the greatest fortune ever earned by any writer, the younger cared for him as a mother. **Scorching Wit** The younger was also witty, but his wit was of a different kind. That of the father made the people laugh; that of the son, scorned them. Unlucky, indeed, was the one who ran up against young Dumas. It was a buzz-saw with the naked hand. One day while in a noted club a flippant young count, proud of his ancestry, thought to have some fun with Dumas. "Monsieur Dumas," he began, "I understand your father is a quadroon?" "Yes," replied Dumas. "And your grandfather was a muliato?" "Yes." "And your great-grandfather was a Negro?" "Yes." "Good," laughed the count. "Will you tell what was your great-great-grandfather, then M. Dumas?" "Sir," was the acid reply. "He was an ancestry, ancestry, where yours ends." Original His plays are filled with biting observations. The following are examples: "A woman's past is like a coal mine: do not go into it with a light or there'll be an explosion." - someone who spend their lives in lining with soft padding the ditch into which they intend their virtues shall fall, and, in turn, they intend their virtues to push them in, three stones at other women who pass." "One can always live with a wife, provided he has something else to occupy his time." "She had spread all those diamonds on her face, panied her and who resembled the constellation of the Great Bear, not only in brilliance, but in form." Dumas, the younger, won higher literary honors than his father, and in certain learned circles is regarded as the abler man. As a thinker, he was certainly the profounder of the evidence. Evidently the French Academy thought so, too, for the younger was elected to that body by twenty votes against eleven. The elder Dumas had driven hard to be one of the Forty and the failure had hurt him deeply. In his opening address to the Academy, the younger Dumas took the assembled savants severely to the their failure to recognize his, father. In after life the brilliance" of the son quite overshadowed that of the mother, and brought forth one of the most cloquent bits from his pen. Here, in part, is an imperfect translation of is by this writer: "The African blood, born of a Negro virgin, that was formed the one from whom thou wert to turn, was the dier of the Republic stifted a horse between his knees; broke an iron helmet with his teeth; and branched a vanguard of Bricken against a vanguard of twenty men. "Home would have borne him in the hands of a sul. France, calmer and more economical, refused education to his son, and this son, reared in the hands under open sky driven by men, and the open sky of his genius, invaded one day the great city and strode into the field of literature as his father strode into the field of battle who did not make way for him. Tells of Father "Then commenced the cyclopean task that lasted forty years. Tragedy, history, travel, history, has hastened all cut from the vast ablem of thy brain; thou hast popped the whole world of fiction with new creations. Thou hast caused to me the work of the newspaper, the book, the theatre, all of which have been too narrow for thy power. Richened France, Europe, America, the world. Thou hast enriched the publishers, the translators, the plagiarists. Thou hast made himself the self that hast left nothing." Expatriating further on the renow Expatalling further on the renovations of his house, "Then one day there comes a break. Thou hast become Dumas, the Father for the respectful and Father Dumas for the insolent. In the midst of all this footfall, the hast perhaps heard this phrase: "Decidedly his son has more genius than he." "How now oughtest to laugh. Oughtest you laugh, happy like to the first father, believing, perhaps, what was said. "Dear, old man, simple and good, thou wouldst give me thy glory as thou gave me thy goodness, thou know, and idle. . . But let others of my age and value declare that I am thy equal, bearing only thy name, if you wish. . . But is necessary for possess, that you know, whenever it will be forced to count with thee. Know well it will read our two names, one below the other, as they appear in the book, that we know, and I have never seen in thee but my father, my friend, and my master." And young Dumas was right. Now, the more years later, the father is the better known of the two. H. Buffenoir in his "Celebrated Men and Places," gives the following account: "Recently in the rue D'Amsterdam we met this distinguished dramatist, and as he strode on, he looked like a victor in life. Truly he has been a man of great importance from having lost the poise and carriage of his youth. Tall, upright, firm and strong, he has the air of a man of great strength, haughty, the mustache provoking turned up, the step and the calves firm, with cane in air he walked as a conqueror in this Paris of which this Paris in which he is known to all, Handsome Gentleman "That day I saw more than 20 persons turn and say: 'It is Alexander Dumas.' A woman who sold papers murmured his name aloud and cried for it, 'What a man and hardship gentleman!' I returned later and saw the same thing each time Dumas went on foot. He reigned in the streets by his presence as he reigned in the theatres with him. What a pain he paints him thus: "A combatant, a man firm in dispute and stubborn in attack, reply and retort. You noticed this at first glance for he possessed a sword's stride, a man mastered and a man of lifting his head like a conquistador." Dumas, fils, knew human nature thoroughly and he mastered the theatre as few men have been able to touch the flesh interests us; he recognized the imperative need for love in the lives of us all. His characters are so real and alive that pity for fallen womanhood sounded through the words: "Received Highest Honor France gave him the highest honors in her power.

INSTALLMENT VI The sheer shock of surprise held me motionless for a breath. My eyes jerked unbelievingly to that small black weapon, gradually apperceived the hand that held it steadily and truly trained on my heart. It was reddish yellow in color. In that single moment of colorous perception, before my eyes travelled with the speed of light to the face above, the space of light to the face above, the face it was. I GREAT the island Selwyn's strangely penetrating black eyes, with a suggestion of that sinister power one in the eyes of the other, of the other steadily into mine. I felt an involuntary shiver of some emotion, whether of fear or repulsion. I could not mute me, quivering along my spine. But, with the training where life itself might be the price of the batting of an eye or the flicker of eyelash, I knew that no silent indication of my inner feelings reached The big room was dim with glimmer shadows. The single domed light set high in the middle of the ceiling left the corners in darkness and our faces stood out on the walls blobs of color. This fact alone gave some semblance of probability to the man's words as he lowered the wea- perhaps. "Oh, it's you. Mr. Frederick, is it?" Was there just a shade too much of emphasis on the note of suspicion injected into the message; the modi- fied stressing, that told my trained ear that the emotion was merely a simulation of reality. I looked at the man through narrow slitted eyes, weighing—be- spent in answer. "From your reception it would seem to be a lucky chance that am I. I said, 'I am a lucky chance,' emph- asis. I said, 'words,' and not any other, who might be inclined to question your right to be here and demand your authority for bearing fire-arms and menacing a search individual, in the assurance of his own the same." Garland Selwyn gave me some indication of his versatile personality and his quick-witted presence mind in his next action and his reply. He smiled. It was the smile of one who would generously allow tagging his name on the door bolt, it had something unconvincing in its quality of sincerity. Pocketing his automatic he advanced and handed out the keys to the grip of his singularly powerful fingers. "That question would be perfect in order, Mr. Frederick. And to save you the embarrassment of asking it I will am and first." He dropped my hand and with one of the most easily and well executed maneuvers I have ever done, between me and the body of Alene Hardmore where it lay with uncovered head on the cooling slab of the morgue. Reaching out to a matter-of-fact gesture, one that there could be no possible reason for interfering with, he pulled the white shrouding sheet up over the still, ebony black face of his chest before confirming his conversation. "My right to be here is easily traceable to my personal interest in solving the mystery of the homicide, because I was his next of kin, to any possible solution of the disappearance of his body and incidentally of the body of his servant, he will allow the use of the provincialism, by verbal consent on the part of Mr. Jarton, the undertaker, to my request that I be allowed to stand guard over the body of the mysterious horror known to all of us.

At my request my presence here was known only to the two of "As to the firearm, that is a necessary precaution easily established in any court of law, and especially permissible when used in the character of watchman on the personal premises of the owner. "The third point, menacing a peaceful individual—well, peacefulness of intent may only be established by proof of that intent in action. You must observe your actions from the vantage point of your position at the time of your entrance, there was no conclusive evidence that your intention was peaceful. In fact the ordinary process of coming to an exactly opposite conclusion. Had you been anyone else than your I feel quite free to admit that I should have felt compelled to report your actions to Dr. Varant and—probably, or over the custody of the court. However —" He smiled again. This time the smile implied something more of tolerantness in making a great nuisance in making a great nuisance of himself to a sorely tried host. The pose irritated me. But—I knew that irritation was the worst sort of preparation for dealing correctly, and had before me. I shrugged sleightly and—smiled back at Garland Selwyn. If there was a firm reservation in that smile of mine, the man bowing way between me and the secret that I had come there to discover, did not seem to notice it. or if he did, did not do it the honor of considering it. I was blocked at every turn. But I had been blocked before and had triumphened in the end. It simply meant that I had to take another way to reach my goal, but reach it I would. at spread over Ben's brown, good. I cannot go on. personal scrutiny, of course. I nodded, and took a half step forward, still smiling. still seemed to drop, askew, over the face of me, whose body intertwined itself between me and the cadaver. The smile was no longer in his eyes. His face went to a peculiar greenish yellow and his eyes were grim with sudden purpose. "The body may only be examined." he said. grant "The body may only be examined on orders from the court." he said. "Have you such orders?" "No." My reply was briefly conclusive. His manner slammed. "Then, can you permit you to examinate the case?" He bowed, again his suave self. "It, perhaps, you should present such orders in the course of the morning." There was mockery somewhere hiding courteous promise and smooth politeness of those innocent appearing I wheeled shortly, and with a murmur of half-hearted appreciation for the implied advice that I had casually as I paused in the front office on my way out.

To bring the forces of the law to bear on the case before I knew what that was going to publicity to any claws I might find and publicity is the death knell of the effectiveness of most claws, but that was not going to make that examination and with that Haitian watch-dog on the job, nothing short of a court order. I quickened my strides. the intersection. Just as I barged ahead, unmindful of anything but my object and determined to accomplish it now that I had heard it, I was in a possible length of time. I was brought up with a jerk by the shriek of brakes and a loudly shouted and lurid admonition to watch where I was going. I stood and raised my starlight eyes to look into the angry impatient ones of "What 'n 'ell you doin' mounin' out in the middle of the street, Tom," he yelped, good-natured. "You must regard as he recognized me. "You must want to hand me some new business." The realization of the good fellowship that I have at the position and the possibilities spread out before me of attaining it desire without recourse, to the court and its attendant authority sent my帮 me.

As I lifted the shielded match I saw Dr. Varanit's car rounding farther corner on its way . . . the rear of the place where Al kept his car. "I didn't get a look over the only one that interested me. I was just on my way to the court house for an appointment to the court. Hawe shaw's remains when you tried to pile up business by running over me." "What you mean, didn't get to look it over and where's the need of court lookout. Has Ben gone behind and looked at the court and told me. No, it won't ben.

With a startled alley, A1 leaped from his little coupe without putting on the brakes, and as it skidged forward, I saw with a mighty surge of shocked surprise, that the wide door was swinging into the alley was swinging open.

Instead of watching to watch some Americans when they enter places of this sort for the first time—we are not speaking now of the Bal du Moulin Rouge, but other places. They feel that they must cut up and carry out the places in the States. The fact is that all these "joins" in Paris are under strict police supervision. The least winking at disorder, and bang of gunfire, is the proprietor, perhaps forever. French law is liberal, but strictly enforced; American law is illiberal but not enforced, hence America's greater record of law and crime. French law makes a greater allowance for certain human failings, but apart from that, it is strictly enforced. American law, on other hand, is more on the eternal Sunny-school thus bringing about a greater revolt of human instincts. There is much in Europe that is not considered crime as in America. For instance, owning or selling liquor; for instance, owning or selling alcohol;—lottery; or displaying the human body in its birthday suit.

The Afro-American, Baltimore, Saturday, July 27, 1929 MY GREAT TEMPTATION FOR EIGHTEEN uneventful years I had been a sort of Cinderella in the household of my stepmother. Mother had died the day I was born, and father had passed on ten years afterward. So for nearly eight years I had been left to the tender mercies of his second wife. She cared nothing for me, often told me so, and worked me night and day in her rooming house. From early in the morning until late at night I made beds, swept, scrubbed and cooked. It was, "Grace, do this," and "Grace, do that." For the three years that I had been out of school, my work had grown heavier. THE LIFE OF BERT WILLIAMS No. 7 . . So tremendous was the ovation received on Broadway, that in 1903 they were booked for a London appearance. They sailed April 28. It was about this time that I met Ransome Dodge. He was a clerk at the grocery store, the biggest colored business place in the little Arkansas town that I visited. He stored on me when I went to the store. He was always polite and was never too busy, to greet me with a cheery smile. Sometimes when my bundles were too numerous, he would help me carry them the two blocks to the store. He was twenty-two, tall, brown and handsome, with big black, long-lashed eyes and a dimple in each cheek. Always courteous, each time he came to our store, we became the best of friends. He began to stop by our house at night after his work was over and chats with me while I sat on the veranda. He had traveled to many thrilling stories of adventures in distant places. It suddenly began to occur to me that I loved Ransome. He was the first person to be kind to me since my father had passed away from cancer, apathy and kindness, went out to him. Of course, I suppressed my feelings toward him and tried to appear indifferent, but he must have seen lovelight in my eyes, knowing me about three months, he proposed, "Grace," he blurted out suddenly one evening as we were both sitting silently on the porch swing, "I—I think an awful lot of you. I—I love you, Grace! Don't you? I'm not my property or anything—nothing but my two hands and a pretty good head; but I can take care of you. I will work hard and be glad to do it. Come on, Grace, please says Yes." I didn't answer. I was so full. How good it was! Somebody loved me! Somebody was willing to do things for me; to sacrifice to make me happy. Oh, it was almost perfect. I had gone along, all but working myself to death, nagged at, browbated, pushed around, prevented from enjoying my childhood, and now someone loved me was willing to carry my burden. "Yes, Ransome. I will." I answered simply and softly. His big eyes, that so resembled limpid pools lying in the water, were willing to if in astonishment and surprise, and then an expression of indescribable joy came over his countenance. His strong arms swooped and tilted while he kissed me again and again. It was the first time in my life I had been kissed. I almost swooped with delight. I relaxed completely and surrendered myself. I was amazed at how it was! It was spring and the aroma of growing things suffused the soft evening breeze. The young green leaves on the great oak trees in front of the house on the balcony. A thin and smiling moon crept above the nearby buildings and bathed our trysting place in ethereal light. This was heavenly! For the very first time in my life, contented and satisfied with existence. "Grace! Get up from there!" snapped the voice of my stepmother from the front door. Ransome and I were in the hallway, the crefallen, "And you, Mr. Dodge," she continued, "get on away from here. I might have known that you'd try to take advantage of this day, but I don't come back any more. I don't want you around here. Stay away." "And you, young lady," she cried, turning to me, her face transfixed with rage, "you get up to your For a full minute, neither Ransome nor I moved. I was just sick and tired of being bullied. Wasn't I eighteen years old? I had a right to have a beau? I was shaking with rage, and was about to speak, when Ransome began talking. "Mrs. Robertin," he began, "I love Grace-er I mean Miss Junkins that is to say-you say me to her marry me. She has consented, and if you persist in opposing us, I will take her away right now." Stepmother sputtered wrathfully: "No you won't, you good-for-nothing puppe and peper, or I will have the law on you. I'm not going to have her marrying a man that has nothing but his next week's salary. If Grace marries at all, it will be somebody that has money. I think I have spent all of these years raising her just to have her marry some tramp like you?" Then turning to me she commanded: "Give that house like I told you. What you standing there for? Didn't I tell you to get to your room? Don't you start disobeying me, young Their success in London came when they starred in a magnificent performance on June 23, 1903 in honor of the birthday of the Little Prince of Wales. lady." Angry and sick at heart, and yet pulled by force of habit, I obeyed. I had always obeyed her without question. After all, she was the only mother I had ever known, and although she had been unkind to me, she had a way and a felt sense of duty toward her. With one last glance at Ransome's downcast face, I wearily climbed the stairs to my room under the roof. Ten minutes later, as I was about to jump in bed, the door opened and she came in. I cringed slightly, expecting another kindly than I had ever known her to be. She sat down on the edge of the bed and, taking one of my hands in hers, began to talk softly to me. "Now, Grace," she began, "you may now be here, but I am really looking out for your best interests. I know you think I am stern and strict and probably keep too close a watch on you, but I am doing it for you of course. If you are not careful, they young fellows around town who are worth their salt. That Dodge fellow is only a little clerk in a grocery store and has abscess in nothing, but for you to take him seriously. Now remember, Mother knows best." "But I love him," I protested, "and I don't care if he is poor. He loves me and that's all I care about." I thought she would grow angry again, but instead she just felt indulently. "Listen, child," she said maternally. "I know this is the first young man you have ever met, and it is only natural, because he is tall and good looking, that you should be proud of you. You must remember that you are also good looking—probably the prettiest brownskin girl in this town—and a girl like you, with your schooling and raising can get a man with good looks, good manners and plenty of money. For the Lord's sake, you must live your life chasing after some country bumpkin." With that she kissed me for the first time in years and with a cheery "Good Night," left me to marvel over her change on the light and looked at myself in the mirror. Yes, was pretty; no doubt about that. Curly black hair, small lips, dainty nose, smooth, flawless brown skin, plump, gently curving shoulders and nicely moulded limbs. It seemed that I had never really noticed myself be- Was it true that I was I foolish for loving Ransome? Was it wrong for me to tie up with a poodle. Was it wrong for me to gross that I might marry-do-do when I might marry and live a life of luxury and ease? Would I not have to continue working hard as the wife of a poor man? I went to sleep with these thoughts troublesome. Next day my stepmother was pleasanter than she had ever been before. I was fraplik puzzled. About two o'clock in the afternoon she put on her things and went down to bed. She stock she returned with many bundles. "Grace," she called gaily. "I've got some things for you. Come on up to the room. Come on up to the kitchen establishment. This had and gloves on the bed. I was dumbnever happened before. Up to my room we went. She unwrapped package after package and spread new dresses and hats and stockings I wanted to protest that, in spite of everything I still loved Ransome and intended to marry him, I had restrained me. Noting my hesitation, she hurried on, telling me about the coming-out party she was going for me just as soon as possible. The party came off in due time, and for the first time in my life, I had a real-amateur of young people, well-dressed and well-mannered—young girls of good family and young men of the same class. It was there that my stepmother took great pains to me to Christopher Delancey. He was a tall, slender, light-brown fellow, with excellent manners, and was planning the impression of aristocracy and wealth. I had never seen a man like him and I was not surprised to learn that he had just come from Chicago and was planning to sort some sort of town. He lost no time in getting acquainted, and I noticed that my stepmother encouraged him, with little of this at the time. After sitting through three dances with me, he offered to teach me how to do the simple steps and I consented. In his arms it was very easy to carry him down very well and I felt grateful to him and, indirectly, to my stepmother. A It suddenly began to occur to me that I loved Ransome. He was the first person to be kind to me since my father had passed away, and my heart starving for sympathy and kindness, went out to him. bouncy, know," she said, putting her arm around my shoulder.

"I—I'm afraid I can't get off, Mr. Delancey." I replied, "otherwise I would be glad to go." "Oh, I guess that can be arranged," he reassured me, "your mother won't mind." "Excellently she didn't mind," he gladly, even eager, gave her consent when he asked me. After the party was over and I was up in my bedroom, wearily taking off my clothes—but yet I felt the joy of the occasions she came and sat down on the side of the bed. "Listen, Grace," she began. "This Delaney fellow is one of the best catches in the country. He's well educated, has good money and manpower, and he's got plenty of money. Don't let him slip by you, Oh. I know you're thinking of that Dodge boy, but you'd better forget him. He's a nobody without prospect and he's not a pretty prestige. Don't be foolish. Treat him nice. He may fall for you right away. I'm going to hire a girl to help around the place so you'll be free to go out with him when he asks you. If you want your girl, I think you'll get you. Know these Northern fellows fall easily for pretty Southern girls like you." I hate to say it, but somehow I felt my loyalty to Ransome雪 Everyman. I loved Christmas for a long spin over the country roads. He was always a perfect gentleman. With shame, I found my admiration and esteem for him growing. He was so much more of a gentleman than Ransome, and I was resolved to marry if he asked me. After all, I thought, why not? he had everything that a young girl desires, while Ransome has had a wedding, rich man and living in ease or marrying a poor man and continuing to work myself into premature old age. I was completely dazzled by the joy of being forget about good honest Ransome Dodge. I was about to succumb to the great temptation—about to wrong the man who deeply loved me and for whom I still had a very soft place in my heart. One evening, exactly three weeks after I had met him, Christopher Delancey proposed. "Don't answer me now," he said gallantly. "Give my answer at this same place tomorrow evening when we go driv It was well that he spoke as he did, because I was on the verge of accepting him, although my heart really belonged to Ransome. Dazzled by visions of wealth, I had been on the verge of disgust. I was in a sleep that night, trying to think what I should do. I had told step-mother, when I got back home, of what had transpired, and she had urged me to accept by all means. Still I was undecided. Restless and sleepy, I moved and my bedroom slippers, and went downstairs to sit on night alr.

"If I marry her, all of this stuff will belong to me, and of course I see it." She was shocked at this revelation. So this was why she had been so anxious to keep me from Ransome Dodge and to get me to marry Christopher and to get her over there.

He said, "I've been wanting to see you so bad, but you've been so busy dodging about that, I haven't been able to get in touch with you." I noted the reproachful tone in his voice but I knew I deserved it. "Ransome, dear," he begged, "take me in my arm me." He started with surprise. "Yes, I mean it," I insisted. "I've been a fool and almost gave in to the pressure, but I was not in a position as the expense of my heart. But now I am cured, dear." "Oh, I'm so glad," he said huskily, kissing me right in front of the customers. "Well, my beautiful wife," he explained an hour later as the preacher said the final words that made us one, "If only I had some money and a home of our own to take you, I could be our supreme darling."

M. E. Church, Friday, July 12, 1929 at 3 p. m. During her lifes the deceased was a great lover of children, and most of her work had been in their behalf, so it was only fitting that about fifty or more little girls and Kate Wiley, should form an aside down which the funeral cortex passed into the church. Rev. Roberts, pastor of the church, assisted by Rev. C. H. Griffin and Rev. Rudolph Anderson, conducted the services, brought out the beauty and religious character of the life of the deceased. She leaves four children vls: Mrs. Mattie Gibson and Ada Jackson, of Vaux Hall, N. J.; Mrs. Kate Daniels, of Philadelphia, Pa.; Mr. Charles, twenty-two grandchildren and six great-grandchildren.

C. and Dr. C. L. Marshall, of New Haven, Conn. that Mrs. Singleton came to Baltimore to see several friends who were leaving the city for the summer and to shop. After completing her mission and visiting a movie, she discovered that she had lost her purse and return ticket to Frederick. Miss Birch told police that she came to Baltimore to visit several night clubs with some girls and young men she had met at a party in Washington. After making the rounds of night clubs, the party became hallowed and then to him a relative who lived at 1136 N. Stricker street. On reaching the house she learned that her kin had moved some time ago.

WILKINS ENEWING their host- ilities here Sunday, after four bitter engagements in Pittsburgh last week-end, t he Homestead and the local Black Sox split even in a double- header at Maryland Park, the visitor taitive to the game, 11-3, with the Westporters copting the second, 9-8. At Pittsburgh, the Sox won Thursday and Friday, but were forced to divide Saturday's double bill with the Posemen. FIRST GAME. The first contest Sunday went to the Grays by an 11 to 3 count when the entire Warfield crew went into a total eclipse. The Grays, their bobs, but in the first stanza garnered three markers when after Lee succeeded in dusting off B. Harris. Warfield ered throwing him a rifle by ering Mason's ball. Beckwith followed with a hit, and Cannady and M. Harris both accepted a free ticket for a time over three Posey-mann had ambled home. To these three runs were added one in the third, two in the second, two in the sixth, one in the eighth and two in the ninth, for a total of 14. SECOND GAME The nightcap began with the Grays nudging the ball at a merry clip, and tallying the score. The Slab Artist Yokely was on the mound for the Sox when Ewing knocked a hot one directly at the back of his hand to retire Turner going to second. After that the Sox's star flipper was forced out of the game with DIXON STARS. Praises have been yodelled to Dixon in the past so he proved deserving of more palmsalva by stretching from first home to score on Lundy's single day. He had previously singled to get on. Dixon's willow-work was easily the feature of the afternoon and plaudits from the fans compared with a boiler factory. He forced the air-banes like a volcanic crumption, getting six hits out of six times up, three of them being two baggers. The star's 'the day was hit by a ball' described by Brit in the fourth frame of the first game Saturday in Pittsburgh. He finished the game but was sent to bed soon thereafter. Sunday just before game time he criticised the team, who advised him not to play because of possible injury to his eyes. He was hit on the right temple and eye nerves were thought to have been affected. Grays making merry-go-round of his team-mates for three innings.

As in form but was forced to be content with a stalemate when his mates were unable to solve the offerings of Gibson, local hurler. The Cubans fell short of their goal of 100 victories by August, when the team was week forced them to cancel games. They defeated Frankfort, 3-1, won from Belle Center (O.), 12-7, but lost to Covinpton, 3-1 to and then to St. Louis in a 8-6 game. The Cubans have won 86 games, lost 23 and tied one. The Passing Review By BILL GIBSON FLIPPERS OF HORSE SLIPPERS in the AFRO'S Horseshoe Pitching Tournament may ease to the finals with trick shoes, but but they will certainly have to use the regulation footwear in the final competition, the committee on rules, regulations or what have you too. Practice periods at Druid Hill Park will have to be shortened so, great has been the demand for the use of the courts. Quot pitcher have begun to drop their quips and are likely to be some keen compartment. Practice sessions will be limited to two games of eleven points each per person, until other arrangements are made. A second pitchit will be in put and it is hoped that pitching can be started soon on the ground formerly used by the Mackinaw Limber company on Pennsylvania. The boys are going after things in earnest. More power to 'em. NOW CAN YOU BEAT THAT, or better, can you beat those records which the young athlete in school 112 made during the year. No, that isn't the case. You could. Youthsters enjoyed one of the most successful years in Playground Athletic League activities, for during the year they annexed eight out of eleven championships in in-person games. In soccer P.S. 112 was played while the 100-ball, team had 85-ball, with winner-up. Basketball session crowned the 85-ball, and the 100-ball, champions and the unlimited team was nosed out in the finals by P.S. 122. Track season found them running wild. After taking the district championship they ran the van of all of the other schools as Dunbar, Douglass and 130 Junior High. P.S. 121 girls from the city-wide dodge ball title and snatched the flag relay from the best that the city affords. In the playground league all of the teams reached the finals. The team from the city-wide team gained hite championship while P.S. 121 took the 100-ball, title. It is rather singular that in each sport only one defeat was chalked up against P.S. 112 and this occurred in the finals. Mr. George George is principal and (Mack) William Payne added materially in the success of the teams. OLD JAMES CROW raised his head here in Baltimore last week when the local police nine, white, refused to allow Luther Farrell, only race member of the Atlantic City police team, to pichagate. Farrell, you remember is the one who administered a bitter shellacking to Leffy Grove and his major and minor All Star matches here, and has hurled some fine ball games in his life time. The refusal to let him play was a downright raising of the color hat, the paradox, and Farrell's team mate were pretty about it too. Unfortunately Baltimore has yet a long way to go in the matter of mixed affairs, sports and otherwise. He has played only once in a great while, when some broad amateur basketball teams consent to meet race organizations, do we have any semblance of interracial competition. All Star games usually staged each fall between the Black Sox and the Bassists. gives the city what little real inter-racial competition it has. Narrow-mindedness on the part of those in control of athletics has made Baltimore lose much in this phase of athletic endeavor. In New York, Chicago, Philadelphia and other cities, mixed athletic competition flurishes and "a good time is had" the action of the local police nine is but another indication that Baltimore is behind the times in more than one thing. And keep this in mind, when someone shoots a ball, you don't usually find a person RUNNING FROM someone he whip. The management of Orloike park, by the way, is so full of race hate that they'd rather let the park stand idle than hire it to the Black Sox. G AWAY BACK YONDER. in the too not dim past of schools in the south asked me indirectly of course, just what they might do along public lines to stimulate interest in the athletic We thought that we had answered that question for them; when in our feeble way, we attempted to outline for them a system of YEAR-HOUND publicity that would keep some phase of athletic activity alive. It would not be fair to mention the name of the school, but this week we received FIVE releases from one southern school, each one a separate story of the activities of some athlete, or of some athletic activity, either proposed or now going on. And we want to say further that we do not believe that a week passes that we have been released. There are one or two other schools who have been releasing NEWS regularly during the summer months, and when we say news, we don't mean a lot of poppycock and hooey that has no value. There is a plenty going on for some alert publicity director to talk about the news that they will ask this fall when the air is full of dope and space is at a premium. Then they will rave because we do not give them from a half column to a column of space. They will rave, we say, but will that faze us? We should say not, for we just be nonchalant, take another puff on our jmsewson, and gently quench our second assistant's back, say in our best voice: "Tut, but, three lines." G We HAD BEEN TOLD that there was much difficulty in getting on the tennis courts at Druld Hill Park, so much difficulty, that we had to be signed, so that they might have use of the courts once in a while. So genuine was the plea made to us that we were greatly moved by it, and were just on the verge of taking our Underwood in hand and pounding out a protest against this hoggish practice, if any. And we were quite able to out the courts and see this thing for yourself? No sooner said than half done: and, arriving at the park we found two of the courts being used. The two courts were in good condition, we found that they were. Not satisfied with this, we made two subsequent trips to the courts and at no time did we find all of them in use. We aware of the fact that at CERTAIN TIMES the courts may be a little crowded. But there are so many OTHER TIMES when they are not, that it hardly seems fair for anyone to protest. Now if there were some demand for a different attitude, under the present conditions we do not see a whole lot to rave about. The courts are there, but if you would use them you must suit your time to their convenience. We should be against stalwart youngsters with bnh-mailed shoes, using the courts for baseball diamonds.

HILLDALE BENT ON TROUNCING LOCALS Black Sox to Meet Darby Daisy Nine in Two Contests Sunday Afternoon. VISITORS STRONGER Revamped Bolden Aggregation Not to be Toyed With. The re-vamped Hildale baseball team will trek here Sunday to meet the Black Sox in two games. The Daisies, who, at the outset of the second half of the schedule, were leading the American League, are now in a tie with the Lincoln Giants of New York, for third place, their team here will be making a strenuous attempt to dislodge the Sox from their present position at the top of the eastern loop. Hildale's pitchers have hit their pitchers and the local stick artists will find it no easy task to bludgeon them about at random, Cockrell, Cooper and Carter, the Three C's and Tarleton Strong, formerly of the Rossiter tribe, will be the first to bludgeon the Westporters. When the Daisies were here last, Cooper engaged in a mighty duel with Kokely, losing 3-0. The second game was rained out and the full vengeance the team took on the locals Sunday, when the visitors will make a bid for both of the contests. Bizz Mackey and Jake Stevens have been the best players nationally and fans here should see two good games Sunday. It is probable that Manager Warfield will send Hayes to the mound and probably, working the second contest. Manager Warfield has been all smiles since the acquisition of Burbage and Lattimore and the Sox are now the only team for whom it is leading the local swatsmiths in extra base hits and Jud Wilson is coming out of a temporary slump.

GREAT PITCHERS' DUEL The Cubans made a desperate effort to break their losing streak in the first game, sending their new pitching ace, Rosell, to the mound to oppose Holland. Except for a bad first inning, when the Lincoln made three hits and scored two runs, Rosell was invincible. He didn't allow a runner to get to third base after this inning, but Bill Holland was also in great form and he didn't let a Cuban runner to get to third but once in the game. In the eighth inning, Fernandez and Rosell led out with singles. Then Riggins made an error, filling the bases.

WESTFIELD, N. J.-The combined team of the state associations of Pennsylvania and New Jersey was not enough to withstanding the attack of the team from New York, in the North Eastern Sectional match for the Merrick Cup competition of the American Tennis Association. Though beaten, the losers were in no manner disgraced, as the men's singles match between Solomon Worde, in New Jersey and Eyre Gate of New York was as close a match as one could desire to witness. Several times during this match the New Yorkers were holding their breath for fear that their champion would go down to defeat. In the third set Worde had Saltch, 5-2, 3-0 love needing but two points in the match, and Saltch pulled through. Again in the fourth set Worde was within two points of winning and Saitch brought, back an almost impossible return of one of Worde's side, to the first position, to take into position for Worde's return, and then he smashed it to the base line and Worde could not get it back. Fred Johnson, New York's one-armed star, must be beaten with which he took George Hill, in straight sets, shows that his tennis form of last week in the New Jersey Open was not a flash of form. The only match won by the combined team was the second, with the gorgeous Brothers took Messrs. Spooner and Gittens in a four set match. SUMMARIES E. Sutch (N.Y.) d. S.

Horseshoe Pitching Fever Rises PETERSBURG HOST TO SOUTHEAST TOURNEY Godfrey Tops Present Crop of Heavies, Writers Say Southeastern Open Tennia Championships to be Held August 5-10. MANY STARS TO ENTER Virginia Tourney May Forecast Winner of Nationals. By THOMAS YOUNG PETERSBURG, YA.—The fifth playing of the Southeastern Open Championship tennis tournament, which gets under way August 5th on the Virginia State College campus nere, and lasts through August 10th, promises to be the real suffer in the tennis firmament that already is bringing its brilliance over the net kingdom. It is the first big sectional open championship tourney of the season, and to date no definite line on the players has been had. So the South-easterns which, as they did last year; forecast the trend in championship play which reaches the climax in the Nationals at Bordentown. Last year Saatch was defeated by Hudlin in the finals of the South's classic, and he ceased to be a real contender for the title as far as the dopesters were concerned. Likewise, Lula Ballard showed her superiority to the cream of the company of the ladies and the experts picked her to repeat at Bordentown. Dr. Ellwood Downing is another who saw the fading of his hopes in the Southeastern when Huddlin took his measure in five hard sets. He had previously defeated the former Chicago University captain at the Tidewater Open, and was in perfect stride for the final heat of the race at the Nationals. But youthful James Stocks, the California comet, eliminated the Roanoke doctor in the quarterfinals. A full body of social festivities is planned by L. H. Foster, of the Va. State College, and his committee who are sponsoring the event. For contestants and visitors. Room and board also may be secured on the campus at $1.25 a day. CONTEE, DUVALL, TOP P. A. L.

"CERTIFIED for your PROTECTION" "No risk if you smoke Cremo—All leaves are scientifically treated." says Alfred W. McCann D. Litt., A.B., LL.D. Famous Pure Food Expert Do you remember the old, filthy shop where the man in the window rolled the leaves with dirty fingers...and spit on the ends? What a far cry this is from the modern, certified "Cremo- method" of manufacture! Certified Cremo THE GOOD 5¢ CIGAR ...THAT AMERICA NEEDED Distributed by F. A. DAVIS & SONS. 119 S. Howard St., Baltimore When heavyweight boxing champions are discussed, it might be well to mention the name of George Godfrey. Going even further than that Robert Edgert, white sports columnist, lending his voice to the strong Godfrey booers, says that he is certain that Godfrey could lick the whole crop of present heavyweight title contenders. FORGED TO "COAST" George could whip them, he says but they won't let him. Explaining this statement, Mr. Edgert says: "When any fighter of some reputation does fight Godfrey the promoter must the Godfrey hand and foot before the articles are signed. Godfrey must not land a knockout. He is allowed a certain amount of punching, but he must 'coast' if the opponent shows sign. He is regarded Godfrey is a 240-pound Black Hercules with nothing much besides ability to absorb all the punches there are, and a very wicked left-hand punch, either for body or jaw—but that's enough. He has battered up several men without actually knocking them out, as against the boxing rocketeers. It is a certain Schmeling wouldn't be sent in with Godfrey unless the big black fellow entered the ring wearing handcuffs and leg-irons." GEORGE IS REAL ARTICLE. It happened that Ed Bang, white Royals Take Pair from Dundalk Nine The Ebenezer Royals ended their invasion of Dundalk, Sunday, by taking both games from Elliott's All Stars, by the scores of 15-2 and 6-3, making a total of five games won from three teams of that vicinity.

News, saw Godfrey punch Chuck Wiggins some weeks back, in a Cleveland ring. So impressed was Mr. Bang with the Leiperville mauler's showing that he wrote, "Don't let anybody tell you Godfrey isn't the real article. He is everything his manager, Baron Jimmy Dougherty of Leiperville, Pa., has said of him, and more. As we chipped before, he is the strongest glove and despite his great heft, he dances around, in and out like a lightie. In the clinches he is sure enough poison. "Despite the fact Wiggins was always aces up and up, he held a Glock above his master in Godfrey. Although Wiggins essayed to hold Godfrey's hands, somehow or other this Tarzan had strength enough to plow right through Wiggins hold for devastating punches to the midriff. It was these solid body strength that sapped Wiggins' strength. "We can't recall ever seeing a man take a worse beating about the body, Godfrey's manager, said the told George to hold back until he could show the fans what he really had. And he has everything, so much so in fact we question if Jack Dempsey, Gene Tunney, Jack Sharkey or any other heavyweight at his best would be a match for this colored beating man."

Dearie, really, Vivian Hall made one of the most attractive hostesses of the evening, a long time when she entertained a large audience at home on Saturday evening for a bunch of adorable Washington girls. Vivian had on such a becoming frock of soft green clinging material, she wore a flower of pink rose buds, carrying her out the color scheme for the evening. The bridge prizes were: a pink bridge lamp, won by Mrs. Summer DeMauris, and a flower presented to Dr. Louis A. Johnson, for the gentleman's prize. A very inviting menu was served followed by dancing. The girls helped to make the evening so enjoyable were: Dr. and Mrs. Wm. Cargill, Arthur Cooper and his wife, Mary Ellen; Claudia DeMauris, Jessie Smith, Mildred Miller, Marcia Johnson, and Dick Whittaker; Donald Wyatt and all of Vivian's family (sisters, aunts, uncles and cousins). The honored guests were: Dr. and Mrs. Summer DeMauris, and Lolita (an attorney), and Miss Ann Dumkirk, all of Washington. Mrs. Smith Entertains On Sunday, Vivian and her Washington guests, together with Mildred Miller, Walter Bundy, Louis Johnson and Vivian's relatives, were delightfully entertained on the dessert shop on the Reisterstown road. Later during the same evening Dr. Louis Johnson honored the same folks at his home at Towson, Md. So I should say Vivian and her friends had a wonderful week-end. Dr. McRary and Wm.

Well, Pansy, I almost forgot to tell you about summer school activities. You know they are putting on a better program out there this year than ever before, probably to meet the demands of the large number of students and others of the younger set who are on the summer roster. Friday before last, the social committee headed by Prof. George W. WGCA assisted by Miss Mabel Whiting, secretary of the Association, in honor of the students. Musical numbers were rendered by Miss Coates, Hermione Wharton and Constantia Wharton. Howard Gross gave a reading in place of Nellie Henry, Miss Whiting welcomed the school director, made the response. Last Friday they held a crab feast and lawn party on the campus, which was gaily lighted and colored lights. They tell me that the merrymakers made away with twenty or thirty dozen crabs. Through the course of May, the courtesy of Mayor Broening, the boat Latrobe, was loaned for Saturday afternoon for a trip down the harbor. A large group of students gathered for a creation pier at one clock, returning at 5:30 p.m. Don't ask me what was there. I did see a group of students in the midst of a discussion, Rev. C. Y. Trigg and family, Prof. Brawley of Clark university and his pride in the little Grants, and so many others. Of course, the broadcaster was present, H. M. Gross, and entertained during the trip to the social committee are George C. Grant, chairman; H. M. Gross, M. Margaret Grimes, Misses Jennie Stanley, Misses Jillian Stanley. They are planning a reception on the campus this Friday, a play to be given Friday. August 2 and an outing for the rest of the 3, about which I will tell you later.

OF WEEDS Graves of Bishops, Priests, Lawyers, Doctors, Neglected in Laurel Cemetery. CUSTODIAN TALKS Only 30 of 1500 Lot Owners Pay for Care. BY DR. A. B. BUDD Thirty, forty, fifty years ago they ruled Baltimore, but today they lie in neglected graves, not only under six feet of earth, but also under six feet of weeds. Laurel Cemetery, Balair Road, Baltimore, used to be the city's fashionable burying ground - Methodists, Baptists, the Anglicans and saints, lawyers doctors lie side by side in what was once one of the most beautiful cemeteries in the country. Some of Baltimore's best known families still maintain lots in Laurel, but according to the patient white custodian, only the 1500 lot holders pay, necessary one dollar a per perpetual care. Old tombstones, so badly weathered that the lettering is hardly describable, seems to indicate that burials took place in Laurel County as early as 1847. Philip Price d. 1847). The cemetery owners are white. It has many changed hands several times. There has been talk of asking the city to purchase it for residential development. City residences surround the cemetery on two sides. Rubbish from the houses, tin cans, paper and trash of all sorts are thrown over the wall to litter the graves and tombstones until they are covered with a growth of weeds and gravel. Laurel County is not distinguishable at its age, but for the fame of those who have their last long sleep there. One of the most imposing monuments, nearly 20 feet high, marks the grave of Bishop Daniel der Payne (1813) one of the first and most celebrated bishops of M. A. Church. Adolingon, on the lot to the right, stands an equally imposing marble shaft and cross at the grave of Bishop James A. Handy (d. Oct. 11, 1911); and within a stone's throw, Bishop Alexander Wayman (1821-1893). These men ruled in Baltimore and Maryland and trash now cover their graves. Fences of the lots have fallen in disrepair. The city of the dead is also the city of disorder and neglect. Back of the bishops' lots are graves of lesser giants of the A. M. E. church: Rev. John H. Colleen, the lettering on the headstone is entirely covered with graves and vines; Rev. Jacob B. Daniel Draper (1802-1002), Rev. W. T. Carr, Rev. Darius Stokes, Rev. C. W. Nicholson (d. 1898), and Rev. Cassius Maonriest (1841-1917). Graves of Baptist leaders show evidences of care. The last resting place of Rev P. G. Neal (1862-1920) of Rev. Harvey Johnson and Rev R. T. Wynn (1862-1923), are not only marked by sturdy and lasting stones, but the lots are neatly mowed and cleared. Lots of the Hughes family, of Thomas R. Smith, and Howard Venable are also well kept. Weeds, Weeds, Weeds Weeds and high, high, however, coveted by Rev. William H. Weaver; Samuel E. Young, caterer; Isaac Mvers, former business man; Cabell Calloway, W. H. Lively, Dr. James C.

Employment 'Agent' Was Flimflammer Employment 'Agent' Was Flimflammer Detectives Nab Man Who Fleeced Six Men on Job-Getting Pretense Confessing to film-flamming six men out of nine armed with $8.75 pretense of securing for them employment, Henry Washington, 42, alias Shuffin, Bill, 815 E. Pratt street, was held for the action of the Grand Jury when arranged in the Central police station, Sunnyvale. Washington, who hails from Richmond, Va. where he was ordered out of town at the completion of a sentence for similar charges is said by detectives to have preyed upon men whom he learned had been guilty. June 21, he is alleged to have approached James Wilson, 715 Stirling street, and Joseph Johnson, 1616 Pratt street, and upon learning that one of the youths could operate a machine he promised to secure a job for one driving a truck and for the other a job in a store on Baltimore street. After the man had paid him a $9 bill, he took the money and told them to wait outside while he made arrangements with the manager. After a three-hour wait and no re-appearance of Washington the men complained to police. During the period the officers were hunting Washington several more complaints of his victimizing were re-reported to the detective Bureau. Washington was caught leading another victim "to the store on Baltimore street." Persons who identified Washington as being the man who filmmapped them are Clinton Dudlev. 1918 Madison avenue: Abraham Bans. 732 W. Mulberry street: Jackson Doles, 25 N. Exeter street; and Wm. Wright. Police claim the man for an operation that failed to make complaint to headquarters. Washington who is gray haired caimed his nick name "Shufflin Bill" from the way he drags his feet when walking.

Arraigned in the Northwestern police station, Mrs. Brown, who has a large spiritualistic following, was fined $10 and costs on a charge of fo-tune telling. Woman Asked Advice According to Mrs. Brown, Mrs. Royster came to her home Tuesday for a "reading," but several clients being ahead of her she had been Thursday. At this time she was given a seance in which the spiritualist the trouble she was having with the certain male friend, insuring here that everything would come out all right.

Lady of the Pavements' WHEN we changed our policy to Talking and Singing Pictures only we promised our Friends and Patrons that we would show only the best pictures obtainable. That was our WORD—and our WORD is our BOND. To date we have faithfully kept this Promise. But next week we are happy to announce we have secured two of the finest pictures on the screen to-day. The first is David Wark Griffith's "Lady of the Pavements," NUBI—gypsy tale of passion. She's an ill wind that blows no man good. Born of the storm, this half-clad human hurricane takes love where she will—from old, from young —from father, from son. Cyclonic in her caresses, the fury of her passion lays waste the souls of men. Primitive as desire, her multiple love story was the walk of Broadway, on both the stage and screen. Direct from $2 Road Show Engagements on Broadway. The Nation's Biggest All Negro Weekly. featuring his latest and most beautiful star—Jetta Gouudal, and the second is First National's 100 per cent all talking and all singing feature, "THE SQUALL," with such stars as Alice Joyce, Myrna Loy, Richard Tucker, Zasu Pitts, and George Hackathorne. WE GUARANTEE that you will find no better program than this in any other theatre (white or colored) in Baltimore next week. Nubl is here. The talk of Broadway is now the talk of Baltimore. She wants love. She steals love. From father. From son. From servant. From master. See her. Hear her sing her gypsy passion songs in the 100% First National Vibaphone talking picture. ALICE JOYCE — MYRNA LOY — RICHARD TUCKER LORETTA YOUNG — CARROLL NYE — AND ZASU PITTTS Presented by Richard A. Rowland and directed by Alexander Korda. Play by Jean Bart. Screen version by Bradley King. THE MANAGEMENT. MON., TUES., WED. A Master Picture by the Master Director WILLIAM BOYD JETTA GOUDAL LUPE VELEZ GEORGE FAWCETT and ALBERT CONTI SEE Griffith's beautiful new star. More passionate than Greta Garbo, more beautiful than Vilma Banky. Thrill to the drama of great passion triumphant over a woman's hate, hostile eyes, and wagging tongues. "I would rather marry a woman of the streets," he had declared, and the words came home to haunt him. The underworld and the upperworld at odds in the battle of hearts. A treat for your eyes, heart and senses. PICTURE
