HOUSTON, TEXAS, SATURDAY, JAN MAJESTIC ADOPTS DISCRIMINATOR The management of the Majestic theatre or succeeded in new, novel and discriminatory poli- cid patrons and theatre-goers, prohibiting co ITS DISCRIMINATORY THEATRE the Majestic theatre of Houston and discriminatory policy toward goers, prohibiting colored clothing The management of the Majestic theatre of Howden announced a new, novel and discriminatory policy toward patrons and theatre-goers, prohibiting colored cloth and playhouse on Saturdays and Sundays, but throwing them out of the theatre altogether. The information has no particular fuss or wrangle, per se, to with the Majestic theatre management regarding this discriminatory policy, as it relates to and operates upon and against people; for the theatre belongs to them and they know or should know their business. It has a strange and unusual departure, and such a flagrant violation of its established custom and policy—since colored patrons have always been accorded decent and respectable consideration from this particular playhouse—that The Informer finds it difficult to understand why this discriminatory policy is being applied by the local management of this theatre at this late date. While no cause or reason has been publicly stated or announced, rumor has it that colored people attended in such small numbers of Saturdays and Sundays that the management found itself losing interest in them, and that they were not nights on these same occasions hundreds of white patrons were compelled to stand or remain from the show because of insufficient seats. This may or may not be true, but regular colored patrons of the Majestic theatre declare this contention to be both unheard and unheard. It has often been difficult for colored theatre-goers to find seats in the section reserved for our people; so that the lack of patronage argument does not seem to hold much water. IF THE MAJESTIC THEATRE MANAGEMENT DOES NOT DESIRE COLORED PATrons OF SATURDAYS AND SUNDAYS, THEN WEUR PEOPLE MUST BE DESIRED TO ATTEND THEATRE ON THE THEATRE ON CONSIDER THAT ANY THEATRE OR THAT ONLY DESIRES OUR PATRONAGE CASIIONS DOES NOT DESERVE NOR PATRONAGE AND SUPPORT ON ANY OF IT SEEMS LIKE IT IS A HARD MATTE PEOPLE, AND SO MANY QUEEN CAN M KNOW.

SELAH! TEXAS DESERTED LYNCHING LOOP IN 1925! According to lynching statistics compiled by the department of records and research at Taskeege Institute, Tuskegee, Alabama, sixteen persons were victims of this celebrated American pastime during the 1920s. According to records compiled by the department of records and research of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, New York City, there were eighteen instances of lynching. However, one is a gritty feature connected with both reports, though they differ in the number of lynchings, viz: Texas deserted the lynching league during the 1925 season, though the state won the championship of a few seasons. In 1924 Florida won the lynching league pennant, with Mississippi and Georgia tied for second place; while Texas brought up the year with only one lynching, giving a perennial pennant in Judge Lynds' loop, with a perennial lost ground during 1925 and led the league with 6 lynchings, thereby capturing the championship of the mobocratic circuit for last year; while Florida finished second with three lynchings and Georgia third, with two, according to the report of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, during the 1925 season (states) tied for second place in the 1925 flag race with two lynchings each. While there seems to be some little dispute about the occupant of the 1925 lynchings league race, "Ole Mills" holds undisputed claim to the championship! For the first time since the civil war the escutcheon on the Lone Star State was not blotted and disgrigated by a lynching demonstration, which shows that successful progress has been made in lynching. However, there are several states in the republic worse than Texas in this respect. The Informer, while dutiful the face, hats our great country recorded sixteen or eighty lynchings during 1922, is delighted in the fact that, Texas withdrew from the lynching league during the Civil War, and that this state has permanently given up its birth in said circuit. by J.
