The increase of 40 per cent and over in the prices of various building material Mr. Ainsley said the building some time to come.

We played the Electric theater here the last half of last season. We no had never played a movie before he had told our agent not to send us unless we had the goods. Now he claims we have. We are in his house. We are at the Broadway, Tulsa, Oldn, first half and the Liberty, Oklahoma City, the last, Ingalls to all, Sheffell, manager "Eight Black Dots." "The Bight Black Dots" is one of the few successful big race acts in vaudeville. They are on the Sullivan & Co. stage, and left Chicago on the 20th of this year. The Windy City they played the Casino and several of the outlying houses, while they were being routed on this trip South. Joe was the only one to week trip over the S. & C. were a hit all along the time. They are under the direction of James B. Garner. The Dots were organized in Philadelphia three weeks earlier and kept constantly ever since. It is chosen that they crowd more action into their allotted time than any act in the business. The roster is comprised of the following: Fred B. Brennan, Joe Brown, Drew Brown, Viola Braxton, Sam Davis the second and Joe Sheftell, manager. Some bunch, and all gentlemen and ladies, on and off. Mail will reach any of all them if addressed to this office. Here is a letter of protest which reached the sacred precincts of our personal boiler works Tuesday afternoon. Mr. Langston: I consider it my duty, as a member of the respectable class of public past, as to designate agitating taintainal pictures which have been and are being shown at the theaters in this district. I refer to pictures being exposed on the screen, Company, according to the advertiser, which make an exaggerated display of the disgraceful actions of the lowest element of society. I am in the simplification that myself and many of my patrons through the scenes of degradation shown on the screen, and if they were misrepresented, I will not be misrepresented. When the beauties actions of the degraded of our people are flaunted before our images in places of amusement of common deoxygenation in the fun of common deoxygenation, pictures to are "Muddin Jones" "Money Talks in Darktown" and "Two Knights of the Crown" are to be shown to them, so further comment from me is hardly necessary. I only desire that you give this letter whatever consideration you can give to the circumstances. Yours truly. Among the Movies Will Smith, who took a group of eight people to the home-coming celebration at Delaware, Wis., last week, says that Mr. Erain killed everything, but that Mr. Erain pany, paid off like a soldier, although the failure to get good weather cost him a couple of centuries.

THE GRAND An excellent bill opened here to big business on Monday night. The Billy Billy company presented one of its very best offerings, "The Undertaker's Daughter," and then finished. The work of Billy King stood way out, especially the scene where he supposed to be down in a collin. Billy Talker, who worked and corked, showed the movie along that line with the great Billy himself. The song numbers were all well owed and included, besides the opening chorus, "Berry Holmes; "Ebriah's," by John Boone, the famous banquet; "The Standout Man," by Billy Walker; "They're on the Undertaker," by Miesco; and the Undertaker Man, by Miesco; and the Mother's Rosary, by Gorttude Saunders; if I Said I'd Marry You, and Will Farla song, "Marry You," by Stella Harris, to look two red encores, and W. Burton in a good grocery Man." Howard Kedy and chorus, the vaudeville acts were McAuliffe & Billy, a team of clever dancers; 5 of Clubs, a good club juggling act, and Malde Do in character songs and impersonations. The last half of last week had Ipsonen & Belle, a singer and too dance, which went well; Regal & Bender in a bunch of clever shatter and comedy aerobatics, Mistle Trio in a bunch of happy nonsense, Mistle Trio in a King & Co. presented a comedy called "Tinging." Father, which was the usual knackout, well sprinted with catchy song numbers. THE MONOGRAMS The Stovall & Stovall vaudeville aggregation is furnishing the talent at both houses this week, filling the bills company, reception of one act at the new house, Chuckie's popular vocalist and yodler.

Your friend, Tony Owlesy INHERITED EVIL INHERITED EVIL Can the vicious traits of parents, like insanity and disease, be passed from one generation to another? Medical men throughout the world disagree on this all-important question, some arguing and attempting to prove by experiments that such a thing is impossible. On the other hand, some of the most noted students learned brethren, pointing out with just as much enthusiasm that such a thing is impossible. This much mooted question is the basic theme of "The Stain in the Blood," which comes to the States theater on Sunday, July 2d, beginning with the matinee at 2:30. It is a Mutual master picture from the pen of Robert A. Dillon, the famous psychological student. The story starts in the West, where a little boy and little girl are orphaned when Indians kill their parents. The children escape on one horse, and arrive at a western town, where they are adopted by the sheriff (Jurdock McQuarrel). Years pass, and the boy, grown up, leads a dual existence, passing as an upright citizen, while secretly he is a stage robbing bandit. Finally he is wounded, his sister discovers his guilt and takes him East. He is trailed and convicted. Later on he escapes, from the penitentiary and continues his life of crime. His sister (Edythe Sterling) has married rising young inventor (Gillard Kline) and covers her husband is untrue. He hears that there is evidence out West that his wife was married before and does not remember her husband was her brother, registered thus to avoid suspicion. in a dramatic climber brother and sister meet, she is accidentally sheer tective, her brother is arrested and the mystery of her former marriage cleared, permitting a happy reunion of husband and wife. Don't fail to see this great feature. ANSWERS ANSWERS --- Skeetsville, Miss. Dear Mr. Tony: I know that you are a busy man and I hate to bother you, but will feel very relaxed if you want me. I am a young lady 16 years old and can recite "The Face on the Barroom Floor." I can also sing and dance the shimmy. I will send you my picture if you want it. Are later companies hiring girls at present? Please let me know, and oblige. Dimples Jackson. REPLI-Miss Dimpies: Am sorry to have to inform you that the companies are all firing instead of hiring these days, and you are not a chicken. You are evidently a ceratey young lady. The fact that you can shimmy alone qualifies you. You failed to tell me in your letter who gave you money and when Tim Moore's Biscuit Shooters start rehearsals will recommend you. Please don't send your photo, as things are moving smoothly with me--Editor. Gin Mills, Ky. Can you inform me how I can get in touch with some good vaudeville agent?

DEFEND TENTH CALVARY SING IN DEATH TRAP (Continued from Page 1.) they protested, and the captain ordered them, as their commanding officer, to abandon him. The troopers staggered on through the arid waste, half crazed by the sun and the tortures of thirst. When they were picked up their condition was such that they could only indicate in a general way the direction of the pool in which they had left Captain Morrow. Reports which came in later were menager but indicated that the sight was carried on at extremely close range and that the boys of the 10th fought like demons until their ammunition was exhausted and they were entirely surrounded by the Mexicans who outnumbered them ten to one. A Remarkable Escape. Private Harris, of Troop C, had a remarkably close call, and tears streamed down his face as he told of the efforts of his wounded horse to bring him to safety. He said: "Our troop, with Capt. Boyd commanding, had pulled up before Carrizal. The captain ordered every one to dismount and we all got down. I was a horse holder, and I took charge of some animals while their riders stood at attention. "Next thing I knew the shooting had started. I looked around. Copt. Boyd was down and I couldn't see him. I kept on looking. There were easily 700 of those 'greasers' around us. They had come up right out of the ground, forming a half circle. Our men kept on falling. The first shots came from a machine gun. It was trained right on us and, believe me, it talked fast. Trapped in Two Minutes. "It wasn't more than two minutes before the Mexicans had surrounded us. We were right there in the middle, fighting like the dickens. All around the horses were rearing and plunging. Every little bit a horse or a man would get a bullet and go down. "I couldn't fight, for I had to keep after those mounts. Pretty soon my own horse, a great big fellow, staggered and whinned. They had hit him in the neck. "I put my hand on the spot where the blood was spouting out. Just then they hit me—in the shoulder. We Hadn't a Show "We didn't have a show in the world, and I saw it. I cut the horses loose and, climbing on my animal, hit for the thinnest part of the circle. "I went right through the Mexicans. My horse brushed two of them out of the way as we charged. "I owe my life to that horse, sure as you live. Don't you know, that animal was so brave and big hearted that he carried me along for ten miles before he settled down to a walk. Five miles further on his legs just gave out and he went down. "Man, I hope you don't ever have to say good-bye to a horse like that at a time and place like that. It seemed to me I couldn't leave him. I looked back to see if there was any one following. Cheers His Dying Horse. "There wasn't, so I knelt down and poured a little water from my canteen on his tongue. He was slipping fast, and I just told him how sorry I was. I thanked him for the mighty big favor he done me. Yes, sir, I thanked him, like he was human. And I guess he understood, for he got that look in his eyes animals have when they are grateful. "You know, I wanted to stay longer, but he was about gone, coagling blood. No use my staying when some of those 'greasers' might catch up and get me. I was bleeding, too, and in pain. I thanked him again and said 'good-bye.' "I walked and walked. A few miles on I ran onto one of our animals. I jumped him and rode on toward Colonia Dublan. Before I got there I ran into some other survivors, and we went on together." One of the survivors told a startling HOTEL PULLMAN The patrons say that the rooms are the finest for the money in the United States.

A tall Texan, with a short arm in his hand, ordered him away with the information that he didn't help "no damned niggers." The trooper, who had been wounded in the shoulder, dismounted and covered beast with his Colt. "Get to that pump, you hound, and get me a drink, or hell you go!" The Texan compiled and was forced by the trooper to also pump water to quench the thirst of his faithful horse. These are the kind of people the protection of whom the flower of the Race's manhood is dying for. Ex-Lieut. Flipper. A trooper who was found by a relief squad sent out from Columbus, N. M., and who was badly wounded, claimed that in the thickest of the fight his attention was drawn to a man in a Mexican uniform who fought like one possessed of the very devil, and who seemed to bear a charmed life. The trooper stopped fighting long enough to get a good look at the man and was dumfounded to recognize ex-Lieut. Flipper, a graduate of West Point, who quit the army some years ago, having become disgusted with the manner in which the race's soldiers and citizens are treated by the people who today are clamoring for aid and protection. It is understood that Lieut. Flipper was Gen. Gomez's right hand man and succeeded in command when Gen. Gomez fell. One of the most popular men in the government service is Major Young of the 10th Cavalry, and it is a certainty that the Major, who is held with part of his troops in Brownsville, is wild at the restraint and the mollycoddle system being used by the administration which forces him and his men to remain inactive at a time like this. BETHEL CHURCH PRAYS FOR SOLDIERS. Rev. Wm. D. Cook, pastor of Bettel A. M. E. Church, delivered a fine sermon on last Sunday morning to an overwhelming audience. He was so involved that the Sunday school room was filled. During the sermon he paid a glowing tribute to the "boys" of the famous Eighth Regiment and how readily they helped the soldiers in their gallant Col. Franklin A. Denison. The choir sang beautifully and there were four new additions to the church. After the sermon ten minutes were taken up on the loss of the troops in the Tenth Cavalry. The resolution was read by R. E. Moore, superintendent of the Sunday school. There are twenty-three members in Bettel Church who are with the Eighth. The Resolution. Resolved, That the Christian people of Bethel A. M. E. Church, at this hour, offer up our prayers to the Almighty God in behalf of the twenty-three or more members of the Church's choir, ushers' or endearers. Sunday Church choir, ushers' or endearers who are now under arms, ready to offer up their lives. Be it further resolved, that we likewise beseech the blessings of Almighty God upon the officers of the members of the gallant Eighth Regiment, whose may be spared and they return home to their sorrowing families. Be it also. Resolved, That we deeply deplore the cowardly act of the Mexicans in slaughtering the brave man of the Tenth Cavalry, the United States and the government officials to leave nothing undone to avenge the deaths of the murdered heroes of the Tenth Cavalry. Resolved, that a copy of these resolutions be sent to the press and the government officials to the Regiment. Signed: Rev. W. D. Cook, pastor; R. E. Moore, superintendent.

The outlook is none too promising. May, contrary to the usual custom, be good weather and you have very dull. Unseasonable weather has caused business to drop below normal this, too in spite of the many conveniences and amenities new additions to two beach-front hotels has not caused the dearth of help expected by many. In other words, the weather has not been good for work. The prevailing opinion seems to be that to come at Atlantic City means to fall right into a job. Then, too, the number of college students at the shore is increasing upon the part of many headwaters and other heads of departments to prefer this class of labor to the skilled worker, a fact that remains unappreciated. What is true that this surplus of labor has filled most of the loading houses on the north side, and that this surplus in this section. The outlook for the coming three months, however, looks more promising. July and August are expected to be banner months, and hope will not fall short of expectations. News of the Churches Rev. C. R.

It she race will multiply so the majority, and we own coin—an eye for not lie; but the fact it is always safe to wise that are found THE BLACK TROOPS WAY from a habit is not the easiest task in the world, as habits will attest; but it can be done if will power is. We as a race have a habit of judging our own by white people; by another; in other words, we are that a certain achievement is little less than one of our number, while the same thing action would excite no favorable comment, son for this state of affairs. One race has ages city behind it, the other but a few short years in and little or no opportunity. The world comes are had we made an excellent showing, and yet on life's road to travel, even to catch up with the today, it is a much safer plan to travel on moderate before attempting to measure arms with the ad- we should be but one standard for all; if we reach it well and good, give it the praise; if we fall but come near, let us not make matters worse by saying it was pretty good for a colored person. We are crying for equality, for equal justice, and yet we feel that we should have all advances made for our shortcomings. From the white man's point of view the two standards can best be seen in the kind of justice that is meted out the two races by the same courts in the southland. What is right for the white man to do is decidedly wrong for the colored man. The white man can insult at pleasure the colored woman; the colored man must view the white woman at a distance or for the consequences. There is no reason why there should be two races any more than there is reason why a black face should be the inferior. A man is just what he thinks he is, just what he himself, if we present in judging our achievements in a way that favoritism, we can expect ever he considered inferior. What we rather than anything else is backbone; we need to find ourselves, to great feeling of dependence. There is nothing gained by displaying; make a hold front, but have something to back it by. This "show me," and if you can deliver the goods there is always a no questions asked. Let Efficiency be the watchword and the two words will quickly disappear. ONE WHO IS VERSED in the art can prove almost anything by properly juggling his figures. All sorts of derogatory statistics have been piled up against the colored race and have been accepted by the masses as being a true state of conditions. Of late years we have been doing some thinking for ourselves; we have been questioning the veracity of these statisticians, have called their attention to many grievous errors until today a little more care is taken before putting out statements that are liable to be challenged. Dr. John W. Trask of the United States public health service shatters the theory that our death rate is so much higher than among the whites as to indicate that Life in the temperate zone is unified for our race. As a result of extensive research he announces that the death rate varies in all races according to the standard of their life. In other words, environment means everything. It is a well established fact, however, that our birth rate is much higher in that of the white race; why, even the statisticians refuse to divulge. 100 to 1510 our number increased by a few thousand less than 1,000, exact figures, as shown in the census, are 5,833,994 and 9,827,763. This is an increase of more than 11 per cent, exclusively by natural growth, since there has been little or no immigration. The white population in the same period increased 24 per cent, but half of the increase was due to the arrival of $5,000,000 immigrants, three-fourths of whom remained permanently. The white population is therefore increasing more than twice as fast as we are, due to immigration, and just a margin faster naturally because the lower death rate more than offsets our greater birth rate. the history of all races that their birth and death rates decline as race in their standards of living. It should be good news to the man who fear the black race will multiply so quickly that another cent will see them in the majority, and while in power paying back people in their own coin—an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth said figures don't lie; but the fact remains that those who han-d sometimes do, and it is always safe to take with a grain of salt or regurgitate or otherwise that are found in the daily papers.

They offer the filmsy argument about providing positions for the young men and women of the race who elect to teach after graduating. They go to great lengths to point out how futile it is to give our youth higher education without providing a place where they may make use of it. It isn't a difficult matter to impress a body of men, educated though they may be, that such a plan is feasible because there is a growing sentiment against the mixing of the races, and this is one means of keeping them apart. There are many reasons why we should use every means in our power to retain the mixed schools. Contact is the one thing that will do more to break down prejudice than all other means, and short-sighted indeed are they who would make a place for the few and permit the many to pay the price for it. Public opinion in the South is so strong against the race that separate schools are forced on us if we would have any schooling at all, and then we are only given a smattering of what they give their own. The instances where our schools are on a par with the white schools in this section of the country are so rare they could be counted on the fingers of one. In the North there is absolutely no occasion for the division of school children according to their color, for our teachers have an opportunity, though limited, to secure places in the public schools, even where there are no colored students. Why, then, should members of our own race further discrimination by appealing to school boards for separate schools? The very thing that should be fought at every turn, "discrimination," these enemies within the camp are fostering. If they would use the same amount of energy in other more beneficial lines they would be doing something constructive, not destructive. CARING FOR CHILDREN. WHAT TO DO WITH THE CHILD a question that has puzzled many parents not the means to send them to the poor people who live in the neglected circumstances who live in flat in many instances, is just enough to and if they should realize it is a need during the warm season to a place to drink in nature's health remedies, it so. There is no getting around the place for children to play, and yet it in the home indefinitely if we expect so against our better judgment we pooishly wonder what the cause.

WHAT TO DO WITH THE CHILDREN during the summer months is a question that has puzzled many parents who reside in a big city and have not the means to send them to the country. This does not apply entirely to poor people who live in the neglected settlements, but to many in moderate circumstances who live in flats and apartment houses. Their income, in many instances, is just enough to keep them in the actual necessities, and if they should realize it is a necessity to send the mother and children during the warm season to a place where they can get out in the open and drink in nature's health remedies, it would be almost an impossibility to do so. There is no getting around the fact that the street or the alley is no place for children to play, and yet we all realize they cannot be shut up in the home indefinitely if we expect them to be rugged and healthy, and so against our better judgment we permit them to do just these things, and foolishly assume that was the cause when they get ill. Chicago, like most modern cities, has attempted to solve this problem by dotting the city with playgrounds located in a manner to be of the greatest service to the greatest number of people. These playgrounds are equipped with every device for running, instruction, and have competent attendants and teachers in charge. To the mother and father who find it inconvenient to spend a portion of the vacation days with their children out in the public parks, these nearby playgrounds offer a splendid solution to their problem.

Even in these strenuous times it should not be forgotten, however, that youth only comes to us once, and while passing along life's way all the joys and sweets, the bitters and the pains should have their place, for they all go to round out a full life. Noise isn't necessarily an essential factor to the celebrating of this holiday; the primary object is to teach patriotism and loyalty, especially in the youth, and this can be effectively done by mixing the light and the serious strains in a manner that will be pleasing to the young mind. We cannot expect loyal citizens in the coming years unless we inculcate in our youth today the germ of country first, last and all the time.
