Innocent Man Taken From His Car on Trumped up Charge by Fake Officers; is Nearly Lynched Before Release Because of Sheriff's Pleas. 23. A party of white people, two women and a man came up to Blair's car and made inquiry concerning passage to a certain town in Georgia. The women were accompanying the body of a relative to this Georgia. They were also in the town with them, and were an Undertaker. Blair politely informed them that his car did not pass through the town named but the other car, enroute to Cincinnati, would take them there. Going to his car, the party of would-be travelers, according to Blair, who escorted them, demanded to be taken by the men, who were in the town� with them. This request the porter declared he was unable to comply with, since the parties had not procured railroad tickets, and there was no way by which he, the porter, could tell as to what reservations had previously been made for his car. The whites were insistent, however, with the men, who were in the town, who was his own car one of the women was engaged in a wordy argument with the Cincinnati porter. A short while after he had returned to his car, Blair saw the two white women and white man hurrying away from the Cincinnati car. Within a short period of time, the two were in the town, and they were being held, came in and then, Pullman carrying the porter who had the argument with the white woman was taken away on its journey toward the North. It was fully an hour and a halt later, near midnight, when the train for while Blair's car had been wait-in for while the two were in the town. His trip Three hours later, when his train had traversed the goodly stretch of Florida land that lay between Plant City in the south and Waldo in the north, a roasse of state-owned officers boarded the train at the latter point and demanded of the conductor that the Pullman port-to-be be taken to the town and to be carried to the new, who was charged with assaulting two white women at Plant City. The colored man protested his innocence and pointed out that his arm was in bone and a half offer the alleged occurrence, and the fact that he had not been disturbed before leaving the court, and the innocence, but pleas were in vain. And the protests of the Punjab court that condemned him for official demanded in strong terms the porter to be not interfered with the train conductor, himself a southern white man, slid with the armed crowd and turned to the unarmed fellow.

New York, Feb. 15.—(Crusader Service) While Hattle Fredericks was replacing hats on their stands yesterday morning in her millinery shop at 2190 Broadway, between seventy-seven and seventy-eight streets, Howard Bowman of 48 West Avenue, he made a plunge for and asked the milliner whether she wanted the windows washed. As he made his plunge and clutched the pocketbook, the milliner's pocketbook lying on a chair, he made a plunge for and asked the police of the police goose, Bowman noted the milliner's pocketbook. "Hand it over," commanded Bowman, when she refused, he pulled the plunge and his coat. He struck her several times on the head, one blow knocked her down, and she fell really to the floor of the store and Bowman picked up the purse and ran to the sidewalk.

Y., Feb. 15.—“Mist-taken identity” is what it would be called, but George Blair, a Pullman porter, living at 132 West 139th St., New York City, will hardly forget the experience that carried him to within a hairbreadth of crossing the invisible line between life and death. Blair has only been in the Pail- ing service about three weeks, and his trips have not ebben many. Whether he continues in the service or not, it is hardly probable that he will voluntarily go again into the state of Florida, for it was in the “Land of Flowers,” resident of which state have recently injected amalodorous scent into the perfume-suggesting name, that Blair had the most terrifying and never-racking experience of his life. Taken from his car by an arm pose, thrown into the wall, Waldo, Fla., from 3:30 in the morning us till 8 o'clock at night without food or water, then taken by a blindfolded, beaten, a rope put around his neck, it was only the timely arrival of the sheriff of Al- cohols, which he had never been at that Blair was not the man wanted, that saved the colored man's life. Then followed a three mile walk to the nearest town, where a train was boarded for Jacksonville. Here he obtained temporary relief and suc- cor for the wounds he had received and illtreatment to which he had been subjected. From Jacksonville Blair was “dead headed” up to Richmond, Va., from which by a telegram was sent to the New York Pulman Company office for transportation to New York Blair reached home on Saturday, Jan. 27, 1948, torn and shaken, and told a graph of the story of his gruesome experience. According to Blair's tale, there is every reason to believe that while he was saved, some other porter was killed. Blair was incident in which an employee of the Pullman Company assigned to another porter conceived that he would be killed. Blair and he believes that this other man was seized and lynched, news of which followed. Blair is responsible for Blair's last-minute release from the mob which held him. Talking to representative of the Tailor, Blair is now leaving story of the affair, including an account of what he believes to have been the incident leading up to his death, thrown into jail. Blair's car for New York, and another Pullman car, routed to Cincinnati, were on a side road in County Fla., on the night of Jan. (By A. N. P.) Chicago, IL.

FEDERATED CLUBS RAISE FUND FOR TUBERCULAR WORK. CLEVELAND AROUSED BY CHARGES OF IMAGE OF BEAUTIFUL WOMAN FOUND IN EGYPTIAN TOMB. (By A. N. P.) Luxor, Egypt, Feb. 15. - For more than 3,000 years a woman has been smiling the most amazing smile once she was Tuthakhamken. She was carried out today into the blinding sunlight and men and women gaped with amusement until one found the right phrase to describe her questioning smile; the Mona Life of ancient Egypt. Nothing like her has ever been found before. She is a life size wood, and thickly coated with plaster. The image is painted a golden surface and obviously was modeled from life. She struck a human chord in every heart, but who was she? What memory did obviously be called to figure out. It is believed, experts will in the future make a smatic smile for centuries in Pharaoh's tomb. She raises the most interesting and puzzling problem to figure out.

Her light brown complexion is of the traditional color the ancient Egyptians wear never has been seen before on any statue of kings. It is made of a symbol of royalty and possibly it is a crowd designed by her father, Akhnetan. Her figure is small and she wears never has been seen. Is it the first hint that we have the first hint of a 3,000-year-old love story? In the statue of one of the men before her marriage, a statue for the king held a romantic affection with him, and with him we can keep him company and smile on him during his long journey in the shade?

Cleveland, like Boston, has always stood up and on subtests of the United States, and set forth its claims on a high plane and had the courage to stand for the rights of the United States, carrying Cleveland today are of national interest, because, if this great city of fair-minded people remain in the United States, other sections of the country, particularly in the West and East, are far more serious consideration of which law should be applied to united action—say, in a conference as proposed by Dr. Kelly Miller of Harvard. There have never been separate schools in Cleveland, or separate anything else. Cleveland has built schools for all for each. In the schools, where today there are more than one hundred and graded divisions, the teachers are mixed in the schools.

"I wasn't specially fond o' robin' preachers," he said, "but they just happened to have the money I wanted to collect." He said he was a trusty in jail in Birmingham last year when he escaped, taking a walk with him. He went to watch the collection taken and then stuck the pistol in the preacher's arm and took the collection himself. He repeated the process at the evening services, and left for Haiti.

In this month, the spirit of pity and reverence seemed to provoke the life and work of Abraham Lincoln can be the same person now that he was born. He was a soul, the breadth of vision and uncanny foresight, the absolute and unswerving devotion the principles of the Constitution desire to live his life for it was worth and the indefinable love of his heart for the whole human family. As a true reproduction of his patriarchal prototype we do well to stop occasionally and reflect upon the fact that he serves as an inspiration to anyone who has a sense of true nobility, and that his personal intimate acquaintance that one of the most impressive things about him was the fact of his personal intimate acquaintance through all of the years of his life. Plans are being laid by the managerial committee on athletes for the building of a top over the grandstand in the baseball park, in time for the games of the coming season. The student body has pledged his support; so when the big PrairieView-Paul Quinn game is staged on these grounds, April 17-18, the fans will be able to watch it from comfortable seats protected from the rain and heat. Prairie View witnessed a unique occurrence in its history in the form of a visitation by an all-enveloping fleet, and snow storms: everything was white as far as you could see; and the children revelled in glee as they enjoyed the outdoor sport of skating and sleighing. It is good news to all of us who know something about the problem of fuel at this institution to learn that provisions have been made for the running of a pipe line from the railroad track to the college; which means that the school will be burning oil next year for heating and steam purposes. Saturday coming will close out chase baseball team trials; and then the next week will see finals. The faculty team is grooming itself for a battle royal with the top players, and seems highly probable that not another school in the sate could get together as effective baseball machinists.

This ground is holy. TUBERCULOSIS AND THE FEDERATED CLUBS. There is room for hearty congratulation of the spirit which prompted the Federated Clubs of our city to raise half of the salary of a nurse who will devote full time to work calculated to reduce the Negro death rate from tuberculosis. Nor is the club more worthy of praise than the six insurance companies and two professional men who pledged themselves for this sum of money. From this occurrence two things may be profitably observed. First, that clubs may contribute definitely to the welfare of the communities in which they exist. This club has done this. Just as, all over America, the death rate from tuberculosis has been decreased by nearly 50 per cent by the inauguration of a campaign of education in its prevention and cure, so may it happen in Dallas. If such becomes the case here, and this result may be truthfully propheted, this club will have helped substantially in bringing it to pass. Thus will it have justified its existence. So must all other clubs do if they would justify their existence. The second thing to be observed is, that our own people by patronising their own concerns may reap double benefit. Six. Negro incomes companies and two professional men, patronized by their own people, are able and willing thus to give back to them, benefits which we did not otherwise be possible. They invest from their earnings in improving the public health. The observation of such things is by no means profitless. We need more clubs with a vision of real service to the communities in which they exist. Likewise, we need more loyalty to our own business concerns in order that they may grow to the point that they can be able to improve our racial status financially and otherwise. It is to be hoped that this accomplishment on the part of the Women's Federation may find its counterpart frequently in the accomplishment by other agencies of feats no less worthy of public consideration that this may only be the beginning of an era of cooperation for the public good by our people in Dallas which shall continue increasingly as time goes on. There is ample need of such action on a large scale. We have means enough. Here, to do. May that condition no longer maintain. Sometimes it seems that only those who live in glass houses have a chance to see the world. Do we reason that Negroes in Dallas spend $9,000,000 for the necessities of life? Who does it benefit? How does it give it a chance to thrive? There who refuse to matronize their own concerns play a rope that finally hangs them. It's a fact that if we all decided to wear overalls and eighteen-inch pants, things around would be fashionable. THE DALLAS EXPRESS, DALLAS, TEXAS, SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 17, 1923. NEGLECT AND FORGETFULNESS OF THOSE WHO HAVE SERVED WELL. The following significant statement addressed to Prairie View Alumni appeared recently in an issue of "The Prairie View Standard: "We wish to call your attention to a matter which has been neglected for the past three years. The matter to which I refer is the resting place of our beloved Edward L. Blackshear, which we have been serving for more than a century, which has faded almost beyond recognition. You can realize without further description the pathetic picture his resting place presents. It is needless to say that a man who gave his whole life's service to the development of education for the Colored youth of Texas should have the consideration of those whom he so nobly served by at least a donation to be used in erecting a monastery. The fact that it could happen among those supposed to be more prone, because of their training, to be fittingly grateful, that such a statement could be truthfully made, is unfortunate. It does not speak highly for the soul-quality of us to have it said that we forget our most efficient servants. But such is the case here. Blackshear L. Blackshear served well his day and time. The present day excellence of Prairie View Normal and the rapid growth of the Agricultural Extension work among Negroes in Texas are the result, in large measure, of his vision and efficiency. He did his best. And that best so far has been exceeded by none of his contemporaries and successors. He was brilliant. He was brainy. He also was endowed with the ability to meet members of the other race and interpret to the other race the same in such a way as to obtain the means of satisfying such needs. Negro education in Texas is deeply indebted to him for its present excellence. Hundreds of teachers who now sit in charge of the Negro pupils of this state owe to him their fitness and training. They should not forget him. His contribution, through them to the generations which shall come, is worthy of the highest expression of thankfulness and gratitude. It is to be hoped that the failure of his former pupils during the three years to perpetuate his mission to a movement to his efficient work will be overcome through the effort that are to come. May they rather act now, and by that action prove that neglect and forgetfulness of one who has served them well, is not one of the failings common to all men. Last Monday it was the pleasure of all Americans North and South to pay tribute to Abraham Lincoln, the Great Emancipator. On that day thousands delighted in acclaiming him the greatest American president and truly he was. The passage of fifty years has served to make his sayings true, to prove the soundness of the principles by which he lived and to deepen the respect for the ideals of freedom and democracy. Once he was the most cordially hated man in America, His ideas were the rock upon which, some claim, the nation split and tens of thousands of men died fighting for freedom and for slavery. And on one of the memorable battle fields of that great Civil War he delivered America's greatest oration—The Gettybyswarf which he said: Four score and seven years ago our fathers brought forth on this continent a new nation, conceived in liberty, and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal. Now we are engaged in a great civil war, testing whether that nation, or any nation so conceived and so dedicated, can long endure. We are met on a great battlefield as a final resting place for those who here gave their lives that that nation might never forget. His service was efficient and worthy to be remembered. LINCOLN AND THE PRESENT DAY. LINCOLN AND THE PRESENT DAY. But, in a larger sense, we can not dedicate—we can not consecrate—we can not hallow—this ground. The bravene, living, dead and who struggled here, have consecrated it far above our poor power to add or detract. The world will little note nor long remember what we say here, but it can never forget what they did here. It is for us, the living, rather, to be dedicated here to consecrate. We are not here to be so nobly advanced. It is rather for us to be here dedicated to the great task remaining before us—that from these honored dead we take increased devotion to that cause for which they gave the last full measure of devotion; that we here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain; that this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom; and that the government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth. No greater speech has ever been delivered in this country. No truer words ever fell from the lives of mortal man. Now—in these days in which we live, it is fitting that we remember them, that we treasure them, that we attempt by all the means within our control to perpetrate and keep alive those lofty ideals of freedom and democracy which were lamps to his feet and light to his pathway. Now—in this present day, there is crying need that we be "dedicated to the great task remaining before us; that this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom; and that the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth." The contribution to American life of the Millions of black people who became citizens through Lincoln has justified the struggles through which that liberation came. In spite of the dictates of the prejudice, the South is proud of its progress through the past fifty years. Truly in America there is political union. And, through a continuation of reverence to the memory of Lincoln and devotion to the ideals by which he lived, America some day will stand so unified in spirit, so wrapped up in her love of frum, so imbued with real democracy, that North and South and East and West there shall be as undying a hatred of mobs and lynching and peonage and proscription as there now is promises to condone them. Thus only will the Lincoln of the past live in our present and project himself in an ever increasing degree into the future of America—the world's truest democracy. None who have read of the recent Arkansas and Florida mob murders and the whitehawk of the Herrin massacre cases can contend that America does not need some kind of anti-lynching legislation. We have made marked progress during the past fifty years but that will not suffice for the future. We must beat that by a wide margin. Only co-operative methods will secure such a result. Rescue Simmons says that the race will never rise so long as our women welcome the attentions of men who think them fit for concubination only. We agree with him and then some. In Waco a man is held for five murders in two of which other suspects had been positively identified. Truly it seems that Justice needs "specs." 1924 and another presidential election are just across the way. What will be our political policy. Are we still on the ship or are we trusting our fate in the seas? Successful men are those who "bite off more than they can chew" and then chew it anyw. w. Thank God for health and strength but blame yourself for lack of progress. Some of us really believe that the G. O. P. has not failed us. THE MIRROR OF PUBLIC OPINION TO OUR COLORED SOLDIERS. There was wisdom in the institution of Turkegee, Ala., as the site for the new United States Veterans' Colored Hospital, which will be the first edifice and plant of its kind in the world. It is rapidly nearing completion, so Colonel Charles R. Forbes now announces. Only last week, for the first time in the history of the New York National Guard, a Negro regiment was admitted to full participation in the service of the State and the nation when the "Old Fifteenth" took its place as a part of the recognized establishment. It was there the great work of Booker T. Washington was undertaken, and there the same great plan of proper and fitting education for the Negro is today being carried forward by that brilliant leader, Major Moton. According to the War Department's plans the medical personnel of the new hospital will be white, as will also the chief nurse, chief aides and chief dietitian and the assistants, but the staff nurses, aids and dietitians Negro veterans of the World War to the number of six hundred can be accommodated at Taukeegan when the doors of the new hospital are opened next month. More than half the hospital will be devoted to the care of tuberculosis, but the shell-shocked victim of the fighting in France will also find commodious quarters and every known facility for the promotion of their speedy recovery. The government is to be congratulated on this sensible and worthy new enterprise. N. Y. Telegram. It seems to us a wide stretch of the meaning of the law to charge the Garvey organization in New Orleans with advocating communism or being anarchistic. We hold no brief and offer no defense for that mad program either in the Pelican State, the West Indies or New York. The wily and unpersuasive zealot who leads his duped followers along any manure that suits his purpose and makes converts has never to our knowledge plotted the direct overthrow of the government. His great madness has been his insane egotism and his indirection of his actions. He has been a man of great trials and tribulations in this their native land for his own venal purposes. He has sought to build within them a hysteria of race consciousness and race prejudice against the Caucasian world which, if carried to the illegal extreme he advocates, would spell quick death to the hopes and aspirations of the black race the world over. He has gone even farther. He has sought with even more criminal results, if not in intent, to divide the race against itself along the lines of Color and birthplace. Perhaps the greatest concrete injury he has done his people has been his squandering of the millions of dollars of the hard-working classes of his own people in the furtherance of his pompous mismanagement of his wild industrial dreams. An integral part of this maniacal world is the ruthless machination of the structure of race confidence and co-operation which has been so laboriously built up among these masses. We are passing over the riotous and disorderly and often criminal conduct of many of his deluded lieutenants on many occasions. The occasion of the breaking up of the Curran mass meeting at Liberty Hall and the violent fragrant insult to all the distinguished candidates and visitors there would have been outrageous upon the part of American citizens of any hue. Coming as it did from his followers there, practically none of them would have been able to resist a conspiracy. The threats and assaults which some of these followers have since made upon Colored speakers who have disgraced with their measures and their methods, ending up with what the government alleges as a murder conspiracy—in the killing of their former American leader, Eason, at New Orleans—are part of Garvey's offense against the laws of this land and the welfare of Colored Americans, which is still another crime, at least indirectly, to be laid at Garvey's door. We have been fair with him. So far have we been that our editors on some occasions have been able to discredit the conspiracy, which is now going to seed. Its harmlessness is now exceeding its helpfulness. It needs a new pilot, a new chart and a new compass. —N, Y. News. CONCERNING THE "BLACK MAMMY." To the Editor of the New York Times: I see quite a little in being said in favor of a "suitable" monument for the Black Mammy of yesterday in the Southland; a "reward" (they are calling it) for her faithfulness to them in their helpless babyhood, and later, their trying childhood. Just what would the Black Mammy say? "Father Time, push back the curtains of the Past! Daughters of the Confederacy, look here! Peter, ring dem bells, Angel Guest, swide wide, pearly gates and page Mammy Lou for Missy Nellie Lee of Georgia" "Mammy Lou, don't you know me?" softly speaks the Mistress of Gabriel. "Yas-suh, yas-suh 'beah Ah is, Marne Gabriel.' "Mammy莲, don't you know me?" softly speaks the Mistress of plantation days. Dear old Mammy莲 opens her ample arms and claps her Mighty light, croning, "Ma'il Missy, all grown up to a 'coman, ma'il Missy.' Smoothing rumped rumpes, she hears the nightingale in her mouth, and she sings a song of her own blood; the shrill last call of a daybird as he wings his passage home, bidding his mate follow. She see the twilight shadowed cgoting form upon the walls of Missy's bed-chamber; little head drooping upon her faithful boom, safe, happy and at rest from the tireless play, busy little feet and meddlesome little hands had brought into being—all passes rapidly in Mammy莲's mind, while she crows lovingly to Missy Nellie, little feet and let us, too, leave them alone with their blessed, sacred mornes a while. "Mammy Lou, I've come all the way up here to tell you a wonderful thing," says Missy Nellie. "Law, now, Honey, what's dat, huh?" "We Daughters of the American Revolution are going to erect a beautiful and costly monument to your memory because you were faithful, good, and true." "Is dat a fac? Well, now, Missy, is dat 'ling, what you'll add, made of ma'ble?" "Yea, Mammy Lou." "Chile, doan yo'll go aps all dat money 'cause we wu good 'n faithful 'n true. Dat won't autha.' Jesus jes' teached us to be lack dat, da's all, honey. But Missy, if yo' all showin' 'precaition, tell all dem Missy back, da'd (to you) 'treat don't we 'll be 'killing 'n 'y; quit bu'nin' 'em; quit bu'nin' dah feeli'e; gin em a squer' deal, honey, d'y's folks lik you'llla; spell ma r'see's name lak yo' do everybody's. "We wuz patient wid yo'all, can't yo' be a li'l patient wid ma folks? I wu'ke' for yo' daddy by day 'n 'tug good keer yo' all, did I, Dey tuk ma of 'nan 'a sol' 'im f'um me, I cried in de lonely hou's of de night, honey, but I wuz good to yo' wa'nt I?" "Ma purty li'll Jane, yo'all 'members hub' I'rtty as a plecher, wan't shef? Ma ol' heart broke wen Mas' sol hub, honey, da's why Ise hear, home, safe, 'n happy, wid ma sweet Jesus. Yo'all go back, honey, rin 'em ma love, 'n jes' tell 'em what I done tell 'o'all honey." "Swing low, awe't. Chariot"; the liquid tones poured out of Mammy Lou's head, and the light of the sun was shaken, and she went to her heart, who was torn and slender by the beauty and majesty of that heavenly choir; the gorgeous splendor of that band of angels dazzled our eyes and awed our souls, as they parted right and left, and Mammy Lou swept up the avenue of gold, back to the throne of God. The Pearly Gates swung silently together and Missy Nelle joined us, the "indelible truth," that the Black Mammy of the South served, loved and died for them, in faith that her kith and kin would be rewarded by a "square deal" and a "happy life," unspilled by little ne'd ad prejudices.

Influenza is an acute contagious disease and is also known as Larypike and Epidemic Catarhal. Fever. This disease is characterized at the onset, which is sudden, or it may have a brief incubation period, with a chill and a rapid rise of temperature which may go as high as 104 or 105 fahrenheit, but as a result, it may have a very severe effect on the health of the people. The disease is not self-complicated, nor is it likely to occur that may prove fatal, especially in pneumonia, pulmonary congestion and edema, pleurisy, perecoagulism and meningitis. Those who are at either extreme of life or who are infected by chronic organic disease, should be most carefully protected by proper wearing apparel and should not be carelessly exposed to a unfavorable weather conditions. By DR. J. G. HARDIN. BY DR. J. G. BARROW Influenza is an infectious disease known as La Griffe and Epidemic Carataria Pever. This disease is characterized at the onset, which is sudden and occurs in a period with a chill and a rapid rise of temperature which may go as high as a 104 or 105 fahrenheit. The aroundness is around 102 or 103 farenheit. The headache is intense, the muscles are sore and the individual complaints of the symptoms are weakness, loss of appetite and sometimes vomiting. The above symptoms may be mild or they may be I want to call the attention to the public, the importance of having a mometer, which in my judgment is a household necessity and especially a severe attack of a disease can be the by early detection of fever—you can teach you in very short time you can teach you to judge patients convalescence from influenza is from going out too soon. Usually the temperature is not a circumstance due to weakness of the patient and so long to have a chill. This disease is caused by a germ known as the bacillus of influenza and gains its entrance into the body. All persons both old and young are liable to influenza and the person having an attack of influenza is not immune to it, he or she may be infected. Influenza may be epidemic, pan- PEN SKETCHES OF PRESENT-DAY NEGRO NOTABLES. In any other group than our Harry Wills, the pugilist, would be reported a notorious character rather than a notable one. Our social perspective is objectively foreshortened. What we possess of tradition is the gift of poverty; what we present in personality is gaudily garbed and pronouncedly loud voiced. Our cultural background is grey with indistinctness and the spiritual essences of our impulses loom before us in the very commonness of mist. With Jesuitical imperturbability we stand closely formed behind, "Any means to an end." If we had the Jesuits compactness of accountability as well as his singleness in aim it would be better with us. As it is we have the aim set clearly before us quite close but not near enough to touch and move to what we regard our special needs. Hence it is quite as easy for Harry Wills to attain the heights of the "notables," as it was for Jack Johnson, in the hey-day of his career, to speak from pulpits and to be named a serious candidate for public office in the City of Chicago. I am wholly willing that Mr. Wills shall fight Jack Dempsey, the white heavy weight champion of the world, for the puglistie championship of the world. I am very certain that the world, I am very certain that "Panther Harry" will give "Demon Jack"—the Neanderthaler— a sound thrashing if the pair ever meet in a pugilistic encounter. But he was not alone in the defusion that when the fight is over and the victory of Wills is announced that the world will be emboldened to doubtable arms of the "Brown Panter." Our growth must be spiritual equipment of all the races. It is the moderns. We have the finest physical equipment of all the races. It is the moderns. We have the finest mental powers which if they were expressed in the terms of a living potentiality, would be the most modern of world affairs. The Jew of first-class fighting ability is the only one of mental ability equal to the Negro professional fighter of the first-class. Mentally John L. Sullivan was a first-class fighter with capacity with Peter Jackson. James J. Corbett, the most alert mind is in the hands of Peter Jackson, failed to outwit the renowned Peter even though the Colored man was handcapped with broken ankle rounds and no decision. In mental poise and grasp of a situation Jim Sullivan had the hands of "smiling Jack Johnson." MIXED JURY OUT ALL NIGHT ON RUM CASE. the history of American pugilism failed to outwit the renowned Peter Sader Service. After a more or less even though the Colored man was a very clever and jovial man, the jovial man, during a contest which went to 75 seven white men and a Colored man rounds and no decision. In mental today reported inability to agree on poise and grasp of a situation Jim a verdict in a liquor violation case Jeffrey was a play toy in the In the Mereer Court of hands of "smiling Jack Johnson," Common Pies. We out of the fray with anything more than the ragged remnants of B. V. De. This is fined a cruel world. We have at the Southern Culture. What with the Poetry Society of Texas, the Poetry Society Smith Carolina, the Poetry Societies of Savannah, Ga., Jacksonville, PA., and the literary periodicals The Reviewer of Richmond, Va., and the Double Dealer of New Orleans, La., the South would seem to be on the way to finding its "finer self." Writing Poetry is a much more respectable calling than too profession of burning Negroes at the stake. The more they excavate among the ruins of ancient Egypt the closer they seem to be getting to the presence of a social aspect that not alone rivals but, in reality, transcends anything we have to offer in these distinctly "Nordie" times. The reclaimed relics are distinctly Negroid in character and decidedly aristocratic in measure. Perhaps a bunch of "Norices" wert down there in old Egypt and showed the Pharaohs how to do it. Smart fellows, those "Nordies." Since our literature must be a propaganda would it not be a good thing if its proponents would go to John Milton and to John Newman and give a style into their manifestos but also some matter. It was an easy wit of the first while women of the first world were finally mustang to the ado of a fellow who was conscientious running into print with his appraisals and solutions that whatever he wrote possessed more of a manner than matter. Further than this your proponent hath nothing to say. Negro men in the State of Alabama have become infected with the lynching disease. Reports from that section declare that white men who have been caught maintaining illicit relations with lewd Colored women that very interested in them, presumably by Negro men. And in the wake of that, Negro men in the State of Alabama are a Negro, is to be electricated in Kentucky who killed a white man he caught holding illicit relations with a common Colored woman on the railroad tracks near a place named Gracey. When asked why he killed the man he said: "I killed him because I have always been jealous of you." He said: "I am not a Negro. Harvard's recent attitude on the "color questions" appears to be the straw that broke two camels' backs. There is small doubt that the liberal tendencies of this time honored institution of learning have the justifiable urge to a large number of Colored men who desired the experiences of procuring a university training under the best possible circumstances. From Richard H. Greener down to the time of the "Onlooker" of the film "The Blind Side," he said: "There is a fair play and an equal opportunity (or all men). It comes with rudeness that those fine traditions should be shattered by the attitude of the son of James Russell Lowell who was a distinguished son of Harvard. We do not progress, we simply change. From the intent reports the Colored man and brother are still looking at the same man and he can lay his very tired political nap or two. It was dark and rainy night.

Still we know that death is only a death, not a loss, which we pass from earth to glory. [Then let us say, poetically:] Sleep on Gladys, sleep on! Thy cause on earth is run; Thy cause on earth is given; But yours has won a house in Heaven. Whereas, God’s will has been done, though it seems hard to us. We feel that our loss is Heaven’s gain. Whereas, we are so connected by our relatives; therefore best Resolved that we are to them a ve of sympathy, that they may know we share with them in these their hour of bereavement.

Drowny Miss Winter, who had slept soundly since the dawn of her season, awoke Sunday morning, January 4th, visiting Texas with snow, sleet, and rain. The visit of the snow, especially, was a most cordial one. Many happy children and grown-ups also, revelled in the first real snow since 1918. But even snow is essential to life. As a result of the recent snow—visit, millions of crop pests will be frozen out, the winter wheat will be benefited immensely, and the hardy old farmer was made to rejoice for his soil will be put in condition for spring plowing. For reasons given, church services were sparsely attended. But since so many blessings came with the snow, we should accept uncomplainingly and submit all to our Creator, who doeth all things for the better. Notwithstanding the fact that, the gloomy weather continues, and some of our streets are impossible, the morning services Sunday, January 11, were well attended. The pastor spoke briefly, but painted by and forcefully, from the 42nd Psalm: "As the hart paneth after the water brooks, so panteth my soul after Thee, O God." The pastor depleted a most vivid picture of the relation between God and the soul. Many beautiful lessons were taught, and those who attended the services felt doubly repaired for the task of making their way to the church as well as exposure to inclement weather. The Music Memory Contest staged by Mrs. L. C. Morgan, supervisor, was a most unique affair. Out of 42 papers passed in 24 were perfect. Meadness C. W. Abingdon, E. A. Wilson, and M. P.

MER ROUGE MAYOR GETS DEATH THREAT. ___ Ordered to Leave Town Because of His Opposition to Kluxers. Mer Rouge, La., Feb. 15.—Crusader Service) Mayor Robert L. Dade, a brother-in-law of Watt Daniel, murdered by a hooded mob, is said to be threatened with death unless he leaves town within ten days. The warning came today in an anonymous letter, bearing a Hot Springs, Ark., post mark. It was written by someone apparently familiar with Mayor Dade's history and his testimony at the open hearing at Bastrop into the hooded murder mystery. The Mayor, who opposed the withdrawal of troops from the parish, announced that he would ask the Attorney General and Department of Justice agents to try to locate the sender of the death threat. The Mayor once joined the Ku Klux Klan and then renounced it as he opposed its policies. The letter, written on stationery of the National Park Hotel, at Hot Springs, follows: "Dear Sir: You are hereby notified to pack up and get out of town within ten days of receipt of this notice. You have never been any good as a man or as a citizen. Use your own judgment and either leave or become a corpse." Law Abiding. E. Mont Reily May Quit.

Big Diplomatic Triumph seen for Turkey and Soviet Russia—"Allee" Interconflict, France and England, Both After Pfennig, Fail to Agree on Division. London, Feb. 15—(Crusader Service) France today formally and definitely broke with England on the policy of the official comment here on Division, it is very reserved, the seriousness of the British position is obvious. She is left isolated in the French, and while no official statement is forthcoming, it is clear now that France is not the winner of the Lausanne peace treaty, since France has practically, not though not formally, won the war. The British position in Constantinople will be difficult in case the Turks are able to arm a few sites from city on the Asiatic side and between 20,000 and 30,000 Turks are able to attack the enemy in the capital in a nutcracker, protected only by the guns of the fleet. The ability of blitzes with the Turk's no help could come to the British except from the Greeks of Constantinople, their fighting qualities are doubtful. It is not believed here, however, that the Turks will resume hostilities after the British advantage of the isolation of Great Britain to refuse to treat the treaty, leaving England to take upon her responsibilities she should dare to challenge Moslem sentiment in her Emperor's frantic efforts made here for two days to minimize the importance of the treaty, which led to a great deal of press misinformation, can be ascribed, your correspondent should be Craven told that the real facts be concealed so that at least the appearance of a Turkish invasion of Constantinople sustained Lusanne until next month by which time Craven hoped the Turks would have received instructions to Hence the diplomatic smoke screen which was finally dissolved to take over the building destroys Crew's plans and indicates that the French know the Turks are there.

(Continued from Page One) when the Garvey debacle became a reality the attempt would be made to facilitate upon West Indiana, particularly Jamaica. This was inevitable, because the national capital and in the interest of truth will make the facts available to those who are interested. Garvarian never gained any kind of a foothold in the islands. Such encounters this eclectic folly are those who are living abroad or have been exposed to racial consciousness. The best proof of this is the fact that Garvarian was a joke, and was laughed at by the “peasant” as a huge joke. It was in 1981 that Garvarian was his income dept. fructified numerically and financially. Hero he raised money and hired his paid agent, by Pruman Talley in 1981, who was his success great after the articles by Pruman Talley in bounded the black Moses sky high. Colored newspaper paper gave the newspaper hundred Garvarian’s flying releases as through they represent the results of the race everywhere flocking to the red, black and green standard. In Negroes everywhere flocking to the red, black and green standard. In the Varmouth had, as Du Bois says an “electrical effect upon even his calm examination is made of the various funds of Garvarian. it will be noticed that since 1826 the most of the United States and the most of that amount from points west of the AT "An most West Indians (and 34,000 out of about 60,000 in the U.S.) live in New York" live in the cities on the Atlantic ocean it is a mystery to me how Dr. DuBois concludes that West Indians are the principal sufferers! Regarding the nationality of a majority of Garvey's members, I believe that Dr. Du Bois is gravely in error when he asserts that they are West Indians largely Jamaicans. Not that Jamaicans are not fools (for isn't Garvey a Jamaican?) but they know their man. "In the January crisis, Dr. Du Bois quotes Garvey in the Jamaican Cleaner as saying that one half of his active members were in America. An analysis of Garvey's figures first made by me and later verified by Dr. Du Bois fixed the maximum membership of the U. N. I. A. at 80,000. That gives America 40,000 Garvey claims to have 14,000 members in New York City." "Leaving aside his known penchant for lying, and accepting his statement, let us suppose that 90 per cent of the New York members are West Indians—that gives 9,000 9-34 of the total West Indian population in that city. If the proportion of West Indians in the U. N. I. A. is no greater than the proportion in New York than total West Indian membership in the United States is 15,876; which leaves the American members at 24,124." "Hearing out my conclusion which does not take into consideration the fact that the majority of his New York menbers, I, Marcum Garvey's words in the Boston Chronicle, Jan. 27th, 1923, say that the African-American he tries to make out that the Universal Negro Improvement Association to more West Indian than to more African-American, as many American Negroes anywhere in America as Du Bols can." "I think that the above should be taken into consideration being the principal sufferers. The last convention of 200 or less detergents was overwhelmingly Ameri- "I have no objection to the word 'peasant'—it is much more pleasant and constructive order than peon." The French are a nation of nouns which means that the land is owned by peon. The article is on the whole anatomy and beautifully written but very much at variance with easily understood English.

Breaking into the jail, an easy job, the crowd decided Bahr and blusted him out of town for the purpose of stringing him up.

It was the Florida white man's idea of justice, however, as administered by a mob of hundreds to a lone, unarmed, let-seemless Negro thousands of miles away from home and friends.

THREE KILLED, IN BLANFORD One-Fourth as Many Victims Now as Fourthly Years Ago. Hampton Institute Builders' Conference from Albany to New York. Gov. McCoy Orley Memorial Hospital for Urgly Sick AREA ALSO STEADILY SHRINKS. Forty Year Record Shows Hopeful Trends, Says Interracial Commission Atlanta, Ga. Feb. 15.—That the lynching evil is steadily being deceived, both as to numbers and area, and that its eradication is only a matter of time, the statement given out by the Commission on Interracial Cooperation as the result of a careful study of lynchings over the past ten years, shows that period, the statement points out, lynchings have occurred in forty-four States, in as many as thirty-three in a single year, 1892 to 1902. One state a year, whereas in 1921 only thirteen states had lynchings that the habit is being gradually pushed off the map. The number of victims also has stagnated, with slight variations, from the high mark of 255 in 1892 to 58 last year the latter being an average for the forty year period, which was 109. In addition, there has been a notable decrease in the lynching habit in the states where it still persists. Last year's record cent from the forty year annual cent from the forty year annual average of 79 for the same ten The figures for certain states where special efforts have been made to curb lynching are cited as particularly encouraging in their assurance that the habit can be overcome when public sentiment and law unite against it. For example, Alabama with a yearly average of eight lynchings for the forty years has cut the number to two. Tennessee, with an average of six, had but two last year, and a total of only five in the last four years. Oklahoma and South Carolina, each with an average of four, had but one each in 1922. Louisiana, with an average of nine, has cut the record to three. North Carolina, Virginia, Missouri and Kentucky, each averaging from two to five victims per year for forty years past, had not a single one in 1922. It was pointed out that in several states special legislation has been enacted and found very helpful to the effective measures being a state constabulary under the control of the governor and the control of the police and provisions of removal of officers who surrendered prisoners to mobs. as in Alabama and Louisiana. These two measures consistently applied, says the Commission will make it possible for any state to enact effective measures to the vanishing point. NOTABLES MINGLE AT THEATRE OPENING. All-American Theatre Association Presents "Salome"—First Production Well Staged and Successfully Acted. Chicago, Ill., Feb. 15.—Few things more significant have come to Chicago's art life in recent years than the opening of the Avenue Theatre, Indiana Avenue and 31st Street under the direction of the All-American Theatre Association. It meant the blending of white and black in an audience of huge proportions. Literary Chicago turned out for the opening. The movement for an Art Theatre wherein the actors should all be racial characteristics should be presented has been brought to materialization. The bill included a one-act comedy and a tragedy. The comedy was "The Chip Woman's Fortune," a playlet, by Willis Richardson; the tragedy was Oscar Wilde's "Salome". In addition to these dramatic works the Coleridge Taylor Orchestra of thirty-six pieces furnished excellent music, and an appeal for support was made by a member of the organization. To consider the more important of the plays, "Salome" was given an interesting and artistic presentation. Meagerness of scenery is accounted of little importance these days. The lights were well managed and something in the lighting gave the dark skinned actors the semblance of witness. Salome's rounded limbs halt revered under the draperies of her seven vials, glistened white. Eastly the Star was Miss Evlyn Preer, who played Salome. Beautiful graceful, endowed with a fine dramatic sense and well rehearsed. Miss Peer brought to mind, and that not without favorable comparison, Mary Garden's impassioned moment. She danced more reservedly than some other Salomes, and her fondling of the Prophets head was not so gruesome. The Herod of Sidney Kirkpatrick was another outstanding role. The interminably long speeches were a tax almost equal to some of Shire's sphere upon the memory, and the characterization of the wicked Petrarch called for fine acting ability. A deep voice of speaker, Solomon Bruce, was Jokanus, whose one appearance was admirably managed. The other players acquitted themselves creditably. Domestic Comedy, in a certain ruler, comedy of Nego robbins, the same player showed their versatility by keeping the audience in an upright position, while the players the footlights. The community is directed by Raymond G. Nellwhite who has been associated with little and little of the United States and Europe. He comes here from Cleveland. The players have much experience in Nego drama for the United States. Many members of Chicago's social world were present to wish luck to the venture. Among them were Graham Aldis, Arthur Aldis, Mrs. James H. Field, Allen B. Pond, Mrs. Cloyd Head, Prot. and Mrs. Ferdinand Schevill, Edgar Lee Masters, Mrs. Paul Willing, Mrs. Sherwood Anderson, Mrs. Harriet Taylor Treadwell, Miss Alsoe Vogt, Mrs. Lroy Goble, T. u. Hnckley, John Sloan, Miss Florence Holbrook and Miss Mary McDowell, Gene Mayday, Harry Hanson, Miss Florence Kilman and Miss Arthur Wilcoxon. COLORED BUILDERS FORM NATIONAL ASSOCIATION.
