Written to acknowledge receipt of your letter of inquiry of September 21. made no inquiry of the mayor of Alabama to aid in the solution of the segregation of Colored people from white people in the respective communities. So far I have not received information is accurate, no such inquiry has been made by any departing officer. Certainly I have not contemplated and do not contemplate such inquiry. "I also called on the chief of the bureau of vital statistics," said the alderman, "and when I asked him what he knew about it. I knew nothing about it. In addition I talked with nearly two-thirds of the members of the city council, seeking a man expressed themselves as undeterably opposed to any scheme, that would in the slightest degree appear any citizen or alderman of citizens living in any part of the city where they so desired. This, in my opinion, is nothing more or less than a part of the bureau of vital statistics, the idea that the Negroes who contemplated going to the north would be "jumping out of the frying pan into the city. In this case they have fallen flat, as the mayor's letter plainly indicates." ELDER WEBB in THE WEST Omaha, Neb., Sept. 28. - Elder Webb, Chicago, Ill., gave a lecture with illustrations.

PAGE·FOUR "Laok of competition is one reason why the man who minda his own business succeeds." Good Bills at All Other Vaudeville Houses THE GRAND If the writer was to try to pick out which of the five acts on the bill here he would stick against it; from beginning to end class sticks out all over it, and the diversi- fled subjects seem to have been chosen to mate skill; first on same Drawer, Hambo & Frisco throwing, hat gling novelty which will be re-trained of the distinct bits of last season; the act, billed as Fun a Hottentot house the name implies and more; the three members, a clever a jugglor, more. Tony Langston Jazz comedian, who can do few stunts along the line of juggling himself, and a well trained Collie of wonderful intelligence constitute the cast and the background of the front of the house. Second out was Ferguson and Sunderland, who have also been seen here in the past and whose dancing, consisting of everything from a buck and wing to a chatter and a laugh, has a chatter and a little singing proved as popular as on their former visit. The center spot introduced Dorothy Hayes & Co. in a sketch called Two Weeks of Dancing, and convinced her that who stays straight and who wins out in the end and the rumination of her partner, who has not been so scrupulous; the piece was presented in such a convincing and clever a manner that only the most ardent of the audience from start to finish; it is billed as The Butter and the Cook, and the manner that the clever pair of comedians put the stuff over had the house in an uproar, good, fast, clean comedy; and the comedians, several excellent song numbers and topped off with a clever bit of both neat and eccentric dancing made the pair instant favorites and they took a real nod at the finish. The Jazz Bottle and it presented one of the old-time levee things that brought us plenty of talent, done by twelve selected artists; the fact that the act who does an Old Man with the trick means much; one good song after another is put over, and there is good dancing galore, the whole affair ending up with a Jazz Band number full of great singers and a very popular. It was what might safely be a cracked jack bill. Sid Kirkpatrick and Laura Bowman, who were headlined here last half of last week, proved to be the best singing act seen here in many a day. Sid Bowman was the best of our singers and he certainly sustained that reputation during this engagement; Miss Bowman's work, too, was a revelation, and the work of the pain, both in the solos and duets, was a masterpiece. We saw which they sang in six different voices, they displayed real art, and they stopped proceedings on more than one occasion during their engagement. We saw the pair of equilibrists, Grindell & Esther, a good team of talkers, singers and dancers, Mrs. Fred Allen & Co., in a sketch called The Truth, in three scenes and a big act called Winning a Dance, which was done in this, and the act held everybody tight to the finish. THE MONOGRAM THE OWL The sterling team of Jones and Jones were featured here during the week; they proved to be one of the new pop stars, and they are the best for the entire journey; other acts are on the bill, and the shows, both singles, have attracted more than passions, buttons, and clips. The current week in includes The Beloved Enemy, The Littlest, Sobel, Red Ace, Nos. 2 and 3, High Speed, The Wife and the Peddler. On Saturday, the great Jesse Feeler, Susan's Gentleman, featuring Violet Mersereau. A LETTER The following interesting letter hit the Old Roll Top Desk just as the late years sounded and the great presses and selling enormous circulation of the World's Greatest Weekly. Reck.

Beringing and everybody went with the staff is as follows: Clurence Baldwin; owner; Billy Ward, manager; owner; Pawel, owner; manager; roster; Clarence Baldwin; owner; Allen (Tribus old partner), Earl Burpach, Long Lance Matlock, Marlene Erana, Rubion Harris, Florena Erana, Rubion Powell, Machel Tillman, Georgia Harriet Matlock, Carl Edwards, under of the theater, and Little Ratha, the famous dancer, show will go to show from here.

Armstrong, Langston, brother of Tony Armstrong, mathematic editor of the Chicago Defender, suffered a fracture last week. The accident occurred when he stepped upon a loose board in his garage, and it will soon dislodge. He will be able to be about. When reporter asked him how things were, he said with characteristic cleverness "I can't kick." Some comedian. ADDITIONAL STAGE NEWS WILL BE FOUND ON PAGE; AMONG THE MOVIES THE PICKFORD "Wild Winship's Widow" drew well on the first night of the week, and the Food Gdmblers "Follow the Girl," "The Voice on the Wire," "An Ever Break" and the Jury of Fate, "Glam in the Idolators" for adults only. THE WASHINGTON "Keno Bates—Jlar," was a fine attraction on Monday. Following it during the week we had "Luck of Roaring Camp," "The Lad and the Lion," "The Wolf, the Wolf Girl in the Checkered Coat," "Life the Soul" and "The Sin Woman." On Sunday we have Sessue Hayawaka in "Forbidden Paths." THE LINCOLN THE STATES "The Scourge of the Desert" and "The Fatal Ring" were part of Monaco's double bill, which had a good reception. The French had "The Red Ace," "The Peddlier," "The Band of Satan," "The Little American" and "Her Surrender." On Sunday we will have the five-reel feature of "Two Women and a Man." Don't miss it. THE PHOENIX "Under Handicap" drew a fine attention on Monday and business continued the week, during which time we had such features as "The Lone Wolf" (the movie), "The Hunters" (stinct), "Patsy" and a William S. Hart special on Saturday. On Sunday we have the fine five-reeler, "The Man the Desert," starring Jack Gardner. THE STAR The billing here this week is right up to the high standard which has prevailed for some time. Among the offerings we have had a few of the great W. H. Hart specials and the William of New Class. Manager Foster is sparing no effort making the booking here stand out. On Sunday a big special will be shown. THE ATLAS We had "Golden Rule Kate" to ex- cellence at attendance on Monday, and after it No. 3 of "The Red Ace," the Patsa Ring," the Fighting Trail" and others of equal importance.

After it we had a run, and then Baby, Souls Adrift, Transgression, The Paws of the Bear and Two Little Ips, we will have the Lone Wolf, Candy for the kiddies at Sunday matinee. K. OF P. PICTURES One of the clastest pictures ever made is the comprehensive descriptive convention with the great K. of P. conventiens Louis, Mo. Not only is the entire mammoth parade shown from beginning to end, but there are close-ups of the animals, as well as of many other celebrities. The entire automobile section of the great pageant is also shown, and, different from most pictures of this kind, the animals are clearly visible face and feature is clear and recognizable. The camp, in full detail, is shown, as well as the immense reviewers' panoramic view of the immense crowds which reviewed the procession. The picture will be seen at the local theater beginning with a two-day run at the Saturdays, Saturday and Sunday of this week. SOME MORE CALLER JONES AND JOHNSON Irving Jones and Johnson, one of the best teams in valuedeville, will be featured all next week at The Grand. They biggest time of them all the U. B. O. which they gained remarkable popularity. The management of The Grand was lucky in catching them with an opportunity for a long trip to the coast and back, beginning week after next. There is probably no better known comedian than Irving Jones and at one time he was the most popular in the varieties. He has lost none of his old time pep, and in Johnson he has a partner worthy of the position; the patrons of The Grand are in for aream with this act heading a fine bill. GOING GREAT Cleveland, Ohio, Sept. 28.—One of the greatest acts ever seen on a local stage is the Miles ticker. It is headed by the celebrated comedian, Billy King, who is surrounded by a company of twelve selected artists. The offering is a free exhibition of African and Indian art that is differently from anything ever seen in this vicinity. The staging, costing, etc., makes it look like a real production and the singing of the aggregation is credited to a bunch of grand opera stars. JUDGMENT AGAINST MOVIE MAN Los Angeles, Calif.—A movie credit to a bunch of grand opera stars. A movie actor, was rendered here last week in favor of the relatives of Mrs. Eufenia Brown, who was run down and killed last year at the corner of Benton set in Benton set ages for $14,600 was awarded the Brown family. THEATER DRAWS COLOR LINE Helena, Mont., Sept. 28.—The Orchestra theater recently instituted a segregation ordinance, and elected several Race members from the audience to serve as auditors. Court proceedings were entered, and the management was forced to sign a contract to annul the ordinance and pay the cost of court. When you meet our advertisers express your appreciation of their patronage of this paper. 2 Men and a Woman It's hard to believe that a man would sacrifice his one entire life, his heart's love, his one substantial ambition, just because of a promise, but life itself is far stronger than fiction. In the "Two Men and a Woman," which comes to the States theater on Sunday, the Ivan Filma Productions, Inc., has transferred to the screen just that sort of a story, and the director, William Mack, the fact was taken from an actual occurrence in life. A man promises a dying companion that he will care for his son. The guardian asks him to help the boy later involves in a questionable love affairs. His opposite, of the "specie" type, tries blackmail. The boy is engaged to the girl his guardian has leads to the ingestion of the "female of the species" to demand her toilt of gold is psychological. The guardian's attempts to safeguard him leads to his own unhappiness and a strange fate we know so little about. The story is rugged. It is a Willard Mack tale, done in his own red-blooded way. It shows the virility of Tick and the peculiar human touches that have figured Mr. Mack one of the foremost figures in American stage literature. The great cast includes James Morrison, Christine May, Guy Coombs and others of equally well known ability. Five reels of suspense-sustaining action, a rich and complex narrative and a host of magnificent scenic settings characterize the production. Her Surrender "Her Hurrender," which comes to the States on Saturday of the present week, is another film of the standard Ivan type, written and directed by Ivan Abramson, and acted by a really powerful cast. Ivan films have never suffered from lack of grip; this one has, in addition to that skill, good quality in the characters that make us laughtish the first class features. The chief burden in acting falls, of course, on Anna Nilsson as Rhoda Cortlandt; and she proves her compeitiously able to carry it. Her smugness is a kind that helps her greatly, and the lighting and photography of the picture make the most of the strongly acted scenes. We do not remember an actor who showed greater promise of success. The first part of the story is concerned with the love of Rhoda Cortlandt for Webster Stuyvesant, a son of a businessman and a father. There is strong opposition to but, after several passages of rapid action, this is removed and the wedding is about to take place, when Rhoda finds she is in love with one Burton, who some time before, had had an affair with her, when she, when has, added. She goes to Burton, Webster—presumably—being left to find happiness elsewhere. The story is stronger, of course, than this bare outline would indicate. On the whole, this is a film to which we strong commendation. Don't miss it. FIDDLER & COLE Judging from the amount of applause given the team of Fiddler & Gossip, the amount of engagement at the Rialto, on Monday, is plainly evident that the new team will enjoy the popularity which was formed in former days. Ruby Shelton & Kole are an exceptionally proficient pianist, and has a pleasing manner in putting over a song number singly, but not in a duet, nor in her partner for the great character artist with whom he shares honors. Fiddler's work is considered a classic by those who play with age. It is seldom that an act is accorded the amount of "mitt" at the Rialto that "The New Cook" and the other characters with age be hoped that the patrons of the Grand will have a chance to view it before they leave over the "big time" on long nights on the coast and back, contractions that they have tucked away in their vests. BIG DOIN'S Detroit. Mich., Sept. 28.—There was great gathering of theatrical celebrities Detroit last week, and they were rewarded with honors in their honor by Billy Hutching, one of the most popular business men here, who owns a fine liquorortium and cafe. Among those who inhaled, and both men who drank, are Brooks and Ole Powers, Billy King and his Evphils in Africa Co. Crumley & Gulfport. Single Lotte Grady Harrison Stewart & Leon Diggs. It was a great time. A great time. An invitation was wired to Tony Langton of the Chicago Defender, but it was impossible for him to attend, much to the regret of the evening. All pronounce Hutch a great host. Law of Nature Scores Detroit, Mich., Sept. 26—"The Law of Nature," the great Lincoln Motion Picture Co.'s third release, was shown on Tuesday, days and created a great sensation. It is without a doubt the best all-Race feature ever shown on a local screen, and lived up to all that has been said about it. E. H. Eckley, owner of the Circle, has used all of the productions of this company at one or the other of his houses and says that every one of the Lincoln's releases will be shown by him. It is great stuff. THEATER GOERS! ASK THE MANAGER OF YOUR FAVORITE MOVIE THEATRE WHEN HE IS GOING TO SHOW REX BEACH'S OWN PICTURES OF HIS TRIP TO Central and South America With Dr. Edw. A.

Fiddler & Cole are a hit at the Rialto; the act is going over in the finest kind of manner and Cole is proving to be a very worthy partner for the famous character comedian.

When the 'editor returned the chauffeur charged him $1.70 for two and a half hours, he was before his mother, sister and friends, Mr. Abbott paid it. But how outrageous it was that a man should boldly another one up for such an exorbitant one for a drive of less than three hours. His only excuse was that he was charging by the meter, which, by the way, is against the city ordinances. The taxi driver's name was Barney Thermond. Notwithstanding his high charge, he ran his car about eight miles an hour and took a place to go where he was told, he cut across the street, left and part of the trip was left out.

It has been almost a universal practice to judge the many by the few, and the few usually selected are of the lowest ebb, and represent us only in the same degree the scum of the white race represents the whole white race. This unfair method of throwing us all at one fell swoop into the discard retards our progress immeasurably. Among twelve million people it would be strange were we not to find many who break with impunity any and many laws of the land. When they do, whether the deed is committed North, South, East or West, the rest of the country is advised of the matter in a manner to increase prejudice and race hatred. Whether we or the other fellows were to blame for the East St. Louis and Houston riots matters little to the general public; we were in them, which is equivalent to saying we were at fault. Like the waves that come from a pebble dropped in the center of a pond, that stop not until they reach the utmost edge, so the odium heaped upon the actual guilty parties fastens itself in a greater or lesser degree to every man of color in every section of this broad land.. Jack Johnson was a prize fighter, and, as far as we were concerned, he remained in that class. When he committed an "overt act" he was heralded as the leader of our Race. Regrets were expressed, by ignorant whites, that his actions retarded the Race fifty years; then to make their statement good they proceeded to pass misagreement and "Jim Crow" laws in order to keep the superior white race SUPERIOR. Booker T. Washington was a wonderful man and represented a line of thought that was essential to the masses living under conditions from which he arose. The world acknowledged him our foremost leader; when he spoke it was taken for granted that he spoke for twelve million people. But there were many who differed radically from Mr. Washington's views—at least the views attributed to him by the press. The other school had its leader in DuBois, so we found a semi-bitter fight between the advocates of industrial education and higher education. The happy medium is just now being struck, Mr. Washington's far-sightedness just being fully appreciated. For the masses the education of the hand along with the brain was of vital importance to a people only a few years removed from bondage. It was his aim and belief to take them step by step up the ladder of civilization, bearing in mind that a solid foundation is as essential to the moulding of character as it is to holding the super-structure of a building. Every class of people have had the same road to travel. We are no exception, though we are made to believe that "God never intended us to be anything but serfs" by an element filled with color virus. In this day and time it seems it should not be necessary for us to constantly plead for an even break—we are at least entitled to that—yet we are compelled to fight to be let alone that we may attend to our own business. American people in fighting for a world's democracy should drop their buckets where they are, and at least give us an even break. THAT WORD NIGGER paper of September 28th the accession white (white) by Arthur Eugene, a Raleigh, that we regret indeed, for we were out in such a manner. Life is not the prerogative to take. Mr. E must suffer the consequence. approve of the crime, by the manner in which he referred as having been called and never took offense at it, and thereby by men of Mr. Dales's type—the white employer is now extinct, this white employer is now extinct, are shaking off the burden of our arms and stepping out into a new life and so on. We are equal respect and equal rights, are credulous, the white man has reedulity. Many of the white race are deserted and stepping out without subjection to insults and oppression has been breathed into the dale freedom, civil rights and reedulity and rights and respect and methods, rather than murder, by which it is being called "ilgerig" and that reedulity is acceptable and humane manner. So, that we are not asking any special and fair play. who refused to join the cavalry be horse when the enemy was crowded exed exemption on the ground that hear of him being in the ditch. to give advice, and so hard to followace to encamp that has been significant kingdom. to be a prodigal son when the "oile is veal commands such high prices. OVERCOAT might have the odor impaired by its forced retirement. In a Chicago daily paper of September 28th the account was given of the death of a woman (white) by Arthur Eugene, a Race man. We wish to comment on the same. The incident is one that we regret indeed, for we realize that life is too valuable to be snuffed out in such a manner. Life is more than can can give; man, then, has not the prerogative to take. Mr. Eugene has committed a crime for which he must suffer the consequence. Just as we disapprove of the crime, in like manner do we disapprove of the insulting and humiliating remarks of Mr. Dale. The man to whom he referred as having been called "nigger" him for twenty-five years and never took offense at it, and those Negroes who were called "good old nigger" by men of Male's type—they are now ad. That outburst of outrage and enduring humiliation and insults of his white employer is now esthetic. We of the African century have awakened, are shaking off the burden of injustice old humiliation, stretching forth our arms and stepping out into a larger aage. There to a new spirit within the breast of this Race. We now ask, are aeful, lawful authority, and we are credulous, the white man has been of all ulility enough to impose upon our credulity. Many of the white race take, so themselves authority that was never given them, and we, not questioning this authority, were held in pitiless subjection to insults and oppression. Until the spirit of the race has been questioned and unmasked, have they asserted their freedom, civil rights and respect. And so today, when authority is overridden and rights and respect are sampled upon, we summon the offenders to appear and answer. By which of the Race can resent these malicious insults in being called "nigger" and their men "negresses." We do not adoyate the taking of a life, but we do advocate for this step to be taken in a respectable and human manner. So, all members of the white race we say that we are not asking any special care. All we want are respect, justice and fair play. THE BROTHER who refused to join the cavalry because he didn't want to be bothered with a horse when the enemy was crowded in him, must have been the same one who pleaded exemption on the ground that he promised his mother that she would never hear of him being in the ditch. IT. SO EASY to give advice, and no hard to follow some of it. If our troop went every place to encamp that has been suggested, they wouldn't stop short of the internal kingdom. IT DON'T PAY to be a prodigal son when the "old man" refuses to kill the fatted calf because veal commands such high prices. THAT WINTER OVERCOAT might have the odor of mothballs, but its warmth has not been impaired by its forced retirement. WATCH THIS GINK THE THOMPSONS HONORED Washington, D.
