W. Thompson.) (Bureau of The Freeman, 1337 Wallace Place, N. W. Washington, D.C., Oct. 22. The report of Dr. Booker T. Washington as principal of Tuskegee Institute for the year ending May 1984, is available at the office of the U.S. Institute for the Science and Technology in the United States of the year's great University of Technology in the South's "black belt." The eleven pages of the report are bring full of practical lessons in thrift, purposive business practical economy and effective business practice. Dr. Washington agreeably surprises very well-wisher of the school at the out-of-school level. The fact that the institution, for the first time since it adopted the name of the school, has the budget system, and is being used by the U.S. Institute for the Science and Technology in the United States, is a confidence to the business committee will be able to continue to live below the limit estimated by reason of the new system of accounting. For next year, the principal dates, the first year of the year, have been $834,14, and is being used by close searching into every corner of the institution and practice being used. Intelligent economy and weakening any cause the work or emergency in the institution is the number of teachers during the summer months. The school has been helped in this reduction in a large number of schools to reduce the cost of teaching. This has been achieved by closing it has been carried out for the cash. Enough costs are been raised to feed all of the horses and mules used in connection with the school's operations, and many of the food and supplies are used to provide them. The new, built-in, well-known, well-known, and material saving to the each drawer. With the exception of about $2,000, the institution has been able to offset its costs in its operations by these costs, leaving money from unrealized losses and costs that are designated legacies and from other sources to be used as the trustees decide. Tuskegee's Banner Enrollment. Tuskegee Institute had this year a total enrollment of 2,157 men, women and children, exclusive of the short-course students, all of whom have been instructed and helped. It represents the high-water mark in the school's thirty-two years of existence. There were 1,618 young men and women on the ground in 33 States and 18 foreign countries. The Children's House of Training School there were 210 boys and an enrolment of over 300 last summer in the summer of 1991 for Teachers: also an average attendance of 252 persons in the Water Farmers' Short Course. Through the generosity of Mr. Julius Greenwald, who placed in Dr. Washington's hands $25,000 for the purpose, Tuskegee Institute has been in a position to help many of the smaller schools of the South doing a similar work. He has distributed this handsome sum among its members of industrial activity, on condition that such raise an amount equal to that received. Dr. R. E. Park, a staunch friend of the race, and a specialist in educational methods, has visited these schools and will make a full report on the results they are achieving. This work will be thoroughly systematized and placed on a permanent basis. It is expected to be policy of Tuskegee Institute to develop these smaller schools that have grown out of the parent dem rather than to increase to any great extent the number of students at the Institute proper, believing that more good an be thus accomplished. Tuskegee's Sound Financial Condition Theodore Institute, despite its many needs, is in a firm financial footing, as shown in the report of the various funds. The total receipts for the current year were $356,492.94, against $297,960.31 for last year, an increase of $61.53. Current expenses this year amounted to $275,767.97, as against $524,165.92 last year, a decrease of $45,277.35. The budget allowance for the year amounts to $276,556.11. The endowment fund now amounts to $1,901,468.32. Interest on this endowment this year was $35,272.76, as against $75,629.84 last year, an increase of $21,642.92. An increase in entrance fees for new students to the amount of $257.32 is noted, as the first year of the $13,524.99, a six-year building and equipment, also and increase of $101.92, is un话计的legas. The building is a committee of five has been appointed to study out a plan of practical economies and efficiencies to cover a period of five years, and excel the results are expected to grow out of the recommendations of these experienced managers, who will indicate the best methods of buying supplies and hand-dining funds belonging to the school. An encouraging increase in the total of donations received from colored people is policy of by Dr. Washington. A legacy of the 1900s was received this year. A� (a estate) of the Ann Arbor Fisheries of Brooklyn, N. Y. at a 1,500 persons from 27 States contributed $2,644 in small Dr. Washington considers a new launch one of the principal needs of the institution for permanent education of a $1,000 building and urges the erection of a library w which must care for the clothing of 1,800 people. O ther needs are: for permanent scholarships; $1,500 for teacher of religious purposes; $1,600 for a building for religious purposes; $16,000 to complete Boys' Trades building; $50,000 boys' dormitory; $50,000 girls' dormitory; $40,000 to the endowment fund of at least $3,000,000. Gratification is expressed over the combination of an improved water system, which includes $45,000 for a marked effect upon the health of the teachers and students and has led to a reduction in insurance rates from $1 to $2 per month. Abroad, differences between the lives have grown out of Dr. Washington's educational campaigns in various states and counties. He feels pleased by his close contact with the people in the country and better understand their degree of progress and their most pressing needs. He has found everywhere a keen spirit of cooperation, of encouragement in this work of moral uplift, and he is confident that the coming years will conceive evidences of the fact that the mission is being encumbered by this missionary service. Tuskegee Institute is growing in size and in the number of people and the love and confidence of the people who need it most. Dr. Washington tuns every work of the mission and the work of the past year, as reflected in the luminous doe one interab $1NN$ FNnce $1$ luminous document he has made, as he used to be asked by every citizen of the American republic.

A Marvelous Discovery which Grows Hair in Three Months and Positively Keeps the Hair Straight Everybody will be pleased to learn that the alarming increase of baldness has been checked at last by the discovery of a remarkable compound which actually grows hair. No longer need the prospects of having to wear a wig distress men and women who are rapidly becoming bald, or who have already lost most of their hair. "GLOSS-O"—The name given to this wonderful compound—has been tested in every way, and found that it will actually cover the human head with hair, providing that hair roots have not been destroyed, in three months. Its properties are so remarkable that not only does it grow hair, but also improves the quality of existing hair. It is gray or fading it will frequently restore it to its natural color within two or three months. No stronger argument can be used in its favor, than people who have tried almost every known thing for promoting hair growth, such as tonics, pomades, etc., with no tangible results have found that "Gloss-O" only, will do what other things are said to do-grow hair. Since its discovery, a little over four years ago, it has taken the world by storm, and thousands of men and women are now living proofs of its efficacy. It has been found that almost every known hair trouble will succumb to its influences, and minor cases of scalp or hair diseases, such as dandruff, falling hair, itching scalp, etc., have been completely cured with two or three applications. As a hair dressing "GLOSS-O" is undoubtedly unexcelled. It is no greasy or gummy, yet it makes the hair soft and glossy, with a tendency to straighten, and for pressing the hair it has no equal. Many of those who have used "GLOSS-O" report most astonishing results. AGENTS WANTED WRITE FOR TERMS This Great Hair Growing Remedy is Manufactured by Mrs. Lola E. Grayson 3825 S.

You've stood so many years and years and years and years; you; You've caused those men to shed their tears and lose their colors too. You swore that you would stay with us just like little Mary's lamb. I know thy guns can raise the dust, swore to stand by Uncle Sam. You've caused a lot of wars and fights, back in your ladder days. And we fought to gain your rights, and won them in such many ways. You once was in the cruel hands, and cruel colors waved, Of pickled men with wicked bands, and of people with people grieve, And Uncle Sam be pitiled you, and fought in rain and mud. We won the battle fair and true, and lost a lot of blood. You have to teach your race to stand by Uncle Sam. Because he saved you from disruption, you're due to give your love to him, Oh Corregidor!

The Normal Index, a publication of the Normal, Agricultural and Mechanical Colleges of Normal, Alabama, is among those recently received at this office. This publication is pretentious, and worthy of the institution. It is well illustrated, showing many phases of the work being done at this institution, and also showing other interesting features. The likeness of William Hooper Council, now deceased, the founder, who was thirty-five years his president, adorns the first page. Walter S. Buchanan, B. A. S., A. M., is at the head of the institution. The Georgia Club at the State Normal School, Athens, Ga., has issued a small volume, "The Georgia Club." The object of the organization is the study of rural sociology. In speaking to the point of the purpose of organization the current number of the Club says: "Three years ago, under the leadership of the president of the school, a small group of interested people in the faculty and student body of the State Normal School at Athens began to assemble at noon on Mondays for study and discussion of Georgia. The results were full of surprise. It soon became evident that there were many things in the development of the State during the recent census period to arouse pride, but also many things to challenge serious attention and concern. "The investigations at once took the form of a sweeping economic and social survey of the State as a whole and county by county. It was found that 66 counties of Georgia were making time or losing ground in ways and that the social and business interests of these counties were in peril. It was also found that 80 counties were making most encouraging gains." As a result of the meetings, in May 1912, the trustees of the school established a chair of rural economics and sociology as a background and formal support for the efforts of the club. The new chair was established because the work the club is doing is fundamentally important, and because it calls for time and single-mindedness far beyond the opportunities its leader had as president of the school. The report of the Freedmen's Hospital, Washington, D. C., to the Secretary of the interior for the fiscal year ending June 30, 1913, is an interesting publication. In its foreword it has. In this report will be found carefully prepared tabulated statistics affecting the professional side of the hospital, showing in detail the number of patients treated, their diseases, and results, which, on the whole, may be considered very satisfactory; also an itemized statement of the receipts and expenditures, the needs of the institution, and data concerning the Training School for Nurses. "One of the important features of the past year was the admission into the hospital of paying patients authorized by the District of Columbia act approved June 26, 1912, to wit: "Hereafter patients may be admitted to the Freedmen's Hospital for care and treatment on the payment of such reasonable charges thereof as the Secretary of the Interior shall prescribe. All money so collected shall be paid into the treasury to the credit of Freedmen's Hospital, to be disbursed under the supervision of the Secretary of the Interior, for subsistence, fuel and light, clothing, bedding, forage, medicine, medical and surgical supplies, surgical instruments, repairs, furniture, and other absolutely necessary expenses incident to the management of the hospital. A report as to the expenditure thereof to be made annually to Congress. "Under this law the hospital has received a class of patients who have for many years sought the benefits of its care and treatment, at the following rates: Private rooms, $1.25 per day; ward, $1.10 per day; children under 12 years, 65 cents per day; babies, 40 cents per day; and operations from $5 up, according to their nature." Among the other publications received are: The Morgan College Bulletin of Princess Anne, Md.; the Year Book of the same Institution; the Knoxville College Bulletin of Knoxville, Tenn.; the Annual of Jackson College, Jackson, Tenn.; the Catalogue of the Colored Normal, Industrial, Agricultural and Mechanical College of South Carolina, and the Southern Workman. The latter publication, as usual, is full of information that is peculiar and interesting. The illustrations are out of the ordinary, as well as the subjects that are treated. The Thirteenth Annual Report of the executive board and corresponding secretary of the Woman's Convention, Auxiliary to the National Baptist Convention at Nashville, among the recent publications, is interesting. In a sort of salutatory it says: "This is the thirteenth anniversary of the Woman's Convention, Auxiliary to the National Baptist Convention, and the fiftieth anniversary of the signing of the Emancipation Proclamation. "We have great pleasure in submitting this report, for the reason that the jubilee year is to mark the undertaking of a very definite program, for the uplift of the masses of a recently emancipated race. While the burden of the work of uplifting will certainly be shifted more and more upon our shoulders, we have reason to be encouraged, because of the fact that we are coming into a period in which public sentiment and fair play is going to demand, for those individuals and races who bear their burdens bravely and lift themselves through the righteousness that exalteth a nation, a chance to strive with other men in the race of life."

Some of the largest educational foundations ever laid are being devoted to our betterment. The first foundation to be laid to assist in the education of the Negro was the George Peabody Fund of two million dollars, which was given to help Negroes and whites. The second was the Slater Fund of one million dollars exclusively for the uplift of the lately emancipated populations of the South and their posterior. The third—The Daniel Hand Fund of one million five hundred thousand dollars. Fourth—Anna T. Jeanes Fund of one million, two hundred thousand dollars, as well as the Miner, Cushing, Phelps-Stokes and General Educational Board. "Gifts from our own people are as follows: "Thomy Lafon, Louisiana, $41,500 to charitable and educational institutions in New Orleans, without distinction of color; John McKee, Pennsylvania, over $1,000,000 for education; George Washington, Illinois, former slave, $15,000 for education; Joseph Parker, $6,000 to State College of Delaware; Fannie J.

The Report of the Thirteenth Annual Convention of the National Negro Business League, held at Chicago, August 21-23, 1912, is in. Dr. Booker T. Washington is the frontispiece.

Laing Williams, Compiler, Chicago, Ill. An important feature of the report is the list of life members. These hail from nearly every State in the Union, numbering above two hundred. The compiler has the following to say in his statement: "For the second time in the history of the National Negro Business League, the annual convention was held in the city of Chicago, Ill. "The convention was called to order on the morning of August 22, 1912, for the day's session, by the president, Dr. Booker T. Washington. "In the eleven years that have elapsed since the meeting in Handel Hall, Chicago, the economic advancement of the colored people has been marvelous. "That first convention held in Chicago seemed to many of us more of an experiment than an expression of things possible. There were presented at that meeting few statistics and but few significant facts as to the worth of the race in things tangible and important. At that time we could not talk much about banks, insurance companies, big land holders, factories and town builders." It is needless to say that this second convention was an exposition of the march of the progress of the Negro race. At that first convention, the compiler says, was the wide vision and solendid optimism of its president, Dr. Booker T. Washington. As this one man grew into importance, power and nation-wide recognition, the economic advancement of his power grew upon him, until to-day the National Negro Business League, with its scores of affiliated leagues throughout the country, is heralded everywhere as a tremendous agency of Negro progress. In the Chicago convention of 1912 nearly a half hundred different enterprises were listed on the program. Reports of actual accomplishments and growing confidence were never so great at any previous convention of the League. The Atlanta University Bulletin is filled with choice subjects, richly treated. The Southern Sociological Conference is especially referred to. One of the addresses at the general gathering in the Auditorium Armory was delivered by Bishop Wilbur P. Thirkield, of New Orleans. Dr. Thirkield has been for many years a worker among the Negroes. BUFFALO, N. Y. The colored Republicans of Buffalo have reorganized, with Mr. W. H. Tallerfert at their head. H. C.

"I will oppose vigorously the confirmation of every colored man nominated for federal office except the minister to Liberia."--Senator Vandamana. Has he compromised his other intention, that of attacking the citadel of our liberties? It looks that way. its a little early to rejoice exceedingly owing to the supposed modern Saul, but a mild glow of satisfaction suffuses doubtless at the good prospects of being let alone. We are indeed glad to know that President Wilson or somebody, who has the power to do so, has given Mr. Ralph Langston an appointment, and one too that is in keeping with the standing of Mr. Langston, as a democrat—The Star, Newport News, Va. Let us hear about it by all means. It is said that Mr. Taggart is now helping to direct things at Democratic headquarters. Thee others are sitting up taking notice. Its worth while keeping an eye on Mr. Tom. The children of Monrovia, Liberia, the Negro republic will benefit to the extent of $80,000 "the increment of an idle fund" for educational purposes. The sum will prove a godsend to that needy people. The American Colonization Society with headquarters in Washington, D. C., is the author of the good gift. The National Convention of Methodist Men convenes in Tomlinson Hall, this city, October 28-31. The convention, which will be made up of above 3,000 delegates, will be addressed by some of the foremost men of the country. The efforts of the Methodist Men's movement is to advance the church in usefulness as it concerns its mission. The church includes the colored Methodists of that denomination. In the brotherhood there are colored members, and who may be congratulated in that they are part of the magnificent organization. The charges against Governor Sulzer of New York, which were down right serious were those which did not come to light at the trial and for good and sufficient reason. The court had to come to it, that it had no jurisdiction in the matter of Mr. Sulzer's activities before he took the oath of office. The charges, nevertheless, were ugly, and doubtless had their influence in the deposing of the governor. This undercurrent had been set in motion and nothing could withstand it. That he failed to report faithfully his campaign expenses was substantially the charge against Sulzer. It is a shame that a governor of a great state had to fall on such a charge. The law asking candidates to make known their campaign expenses is held in personal contempt wherever it is in force. In this case it has proved a veritable man trap. It could have been otherwise had Murphy et al so effected. The city council of Baltimore has put over another batch of segregation rules. The others failed to stick. The present law according to the comment of leading dailies of that city will not hold "water." The colored people are limited, but the white people will live where they choose. This means that in time that law will be useless. If white persons may live where they choose it will not be long before there will be an inextricable mixup, when those concerned will be glad enough to dismiss the whole business. At Keith's theater in this city, a division of the gallery is set aside for colored people. White people may sit in the section, and they do sit elsewhere. The logic of it is, that many white persons do not care for hard and fast rules of the kind, especially in public places. Theaters and hotels can manage to keep up the thing, but when it comes to the weightier thing of property—where one lives—it will be much different. The effort of segregation by law is the meanest business that the race has faced. This has reference to dwelling places. Property rights are so fundamental that to inflict peculiar laws concerning them is disturbing. Perhaps those who make peculiar laws have not a sufficient knowledge of the possible harm. Property insecure, government is insecure. And this monkeying with the rights of residence is dangerously deny monkeying with property rights as best understood. That a peculiar people can stand for peculiar treatment has nothing to do with the case. The principle is vitiated, struck down just that much even when Negroes are concerned. THE PHILADELPHIA EXPOSITION Isaac H. Smith, of New Bern, who was appointed by the governor of that state to represent it at the Fiftieth Anniversary Emancipation Proclamation Celebration at Philadelphia, was not greatly impressed with what he saw. He said it was a lame duck affair. It may be that Mr. Smith has peculiar ideas about such things. This view of him is partially borne out by his further comment. Among other things he said: First. Pennsylvania was a free state, and therefore, it was inappropriate of such to have come off in an ante-bellum free state. Why the good people in the greatest state of Pennsylvania, should take from its public treasury $35,000 and allow it to be used for a purpose reflecting no credit on the white people, and a discredit on the colored people is a mystery to me. "For if there is to be found one decent, brainy colored man or woman, who is decent and has regard for the truth, and will say that the Philadelphia celebration was in any way a help to the colored people to the good, one bit, let me have his or her post office address." We do not see it altogether as Mr. Smith saw it. We were impressed all along withe peculiar kind of activity of the management or its nonactivity. It appeared a close corporation or a private affair, having no desire to have the exposition become public and great. The management refused to advertise, thus neglecting the great necessity of such undertakings. Think of the Ringling Bros. or the Wallace Hagenbeck people to advertise to adversaries, race fealty and all such were to be depended on to some extent, but they don't do the whole business for shows, for Negro demonstration exhibitions. We are not on to the facts of the outcome of the exposition. We thought we saw something of its end from its beginning. From the comedy of the day, we read Philadelphia publications the exposition was a rather sorry affair. THE FIFTIETH ANNIVERSARY OF FREEDOM. Dr. Booker T. Washington and others of similar view wished to have this week, October 19 to 26, set aside as the one in which to give some manifestation of observing the fiftieth year of Negro freedom. How generally this has been done we are as yet unable to say. When we are reminded of observations of the kind, emancipation days and the like, we are confronted with our present standing. In our desire to stand as other men, we are forced to accept a reality because we find it impossible to do so, consequently these racial patriotic days are not always so appealing. Not the whole race, but too many, we think, look at the situation too squarely in the face. Great racial movements, great nation movements do not proceed in a direct line. The children of Israel did not win their way to freedom by a direct route. It took the wit of Moses, who took his lessons of God himself, to unweave the Egyptian mesh of bondage. The circuitous route to enlarged liberty cannot always be charged up to a certain people at a certain time. Prejudice is inherited, becoming a part of a people, ingrained in their natures, justified as they view it, by reasoning which the conscience. The perverted, if we may be so cruel as to call it so, that which has been struck down from its high altitude, but nevertheless a conscience, the new measurement for right and wrong. Those at the Civil war who found themselves in possession of prejudice and slaves were also fortified with a seemingly justifiable reason for the same. The slaves and prejudice were their heritage. If we know truth, honor and right, we know it of our forbears, our immediate parentage, our remote parentage. In spite of the wisdom of the world those facts or propositions installed by those wam pre-hearted and obey will longer hold with us. Amid the thunder of opposition, the still voice of those carries to the heart, as a thing separate and distinct of the din of combined noises. So we should not feel too greatly aggrieved because we fall in measuring up to the full stature of men. Prejudice is a heritage, of the mind, handed down by those who have gone before. It is especially mean, malignant in our case, since it is supported; it is apparently necessary owing to our traits and character, which we have not yet distinguished different, and which are yet to some extent, distinctly different. Say what we will there is some reason for some prejudice. In view of the fact we will not stand from under the banner of good cheer and optimism if we know what is best for us. We should measure the distance we have come. There is always reason for cheer so long as the movement is forward. What has been, the darker part has been removed; it is moving. If the route is blocked at one point it will break out at a different point, in the meanwhile the whole is improving because of the improvement of a given point, provided there's no backward movement. We have suffered somewhat owing to a slight backward movement along a path. But after all it was not a backward movement. We had not made the progress that we thought we had made. We know better at this time. There are no more inflated notions to be punctured. We are at hard pan. If we do right we will measure the distance we have come, giving praise for that, to those who made the march possible, to those who sustained us along the route. We cannot see how that any people may be excluded. The South has the reputation of being severe on the race, and it is. But the South has been great beyond expression within these fifty years. The ten thousand Negro school houses that dot the Southland came because of these who saw their all snatched from them at the coming of the Yankees. The school houses are the basis of civilization. It is useless to attempt to enumerate the mercies of the white people, North or South. They have suffered as much for us as we have for ourselves. We appreciate the struggle of our own men to be, to have, to hold, but it would be blasphemy to boast of this without taking into account our friend, the white man, and he is that even when our enemy—paradoxically; we will not forget our enemy who is our friend. We may well feel proud of the fifty years of our freedom. We have nearly paralleled the white man's civilization; we are taking on his full curriculum of education, whereas it was thought at the close of the war that we had to learn to speak the verb. We have individuals among us who have given their Greek text, books to the schools or our prototype. The greatest industrial training school in the world sprang from the head of a Negro, as it were. Tuskegee is the school of the universe, and to which all pay homage. Our artists have won their way to the Paris salon and to the walls of Cynosures of arts generally. Our theologians, orators readily exchange rostrums with the distinguished among the white pupils. Our teachers are turning out pupils by the thousands yearly, and who compete in all ways of life's great "market." Edi-lary lawyers, doctors are filling their spheres acceptably, and who often find time to cross the color line in answer to a demand of their skill. Singers, actors, performers abound the land; evangelists of cheer and happiness, living poems, many of them, set in opposition to the sometimes bloom. of the city. It is a pity the Afro-American gets so little out of some of these departments of the city. They have scarcely none on the pay rolls but it is their own fault. They do not care for that class of work, is the conclusion of the masses. A. C. Claiborne and others of southern Texas are here for the fair. R. R. S.

It is a shame and a disgrace to see the way some of our people act in public places, these days. The ways are open for much better conduct and better treatment at the hands of the officers if those responsible for some of the crimes would think and consider before hand and then act.

Everything great in this act, even Tress and Thompson did not appear, not being able to leave the Bert Williams pre-company, and the company, which was the act, which went big. The Hawaiian Duo, Tyril and Griwilow in native songs and dances, as special feature. The Musical Seminoles made the same success as previously. Many new instruments were added, and they were only allowed to leave the stage after many plays, a concomituation of gun spinning, bace blooming, dancing, singing and military training. A great collection of pictures, featuring everything, pleased the audience. Navy. Baker and Smith, a classy team, in songs and dances, got by nicely at this house. The usual run of good pictures S.

Wilson and Goff's witty and humorous comedy received great applause, Puggleys, the great comedian, did more daring feats, as well as introducing some new acrobatic turns. Allen and Morton made cool on their first appearance, and were the first to appear in a series of phrases on Wilson sang several of the latest hits and was called back the third time You Made Me Love You. Minstrel John Minstrel, in a pleased phrase of the entire audience and won for him as well as his juggling. Johnson and Robinson are booked for the follow-up, and also the return date of the Tween. (Tim E. Owsley, Manager.) The Crown Garden Theater is still playing to prosperous business, had a lot of the acts to the failure of two of the acts to connect in time. Result, no show Monday night. Everything in trim for Tuesday evening. Four good acts made up the Rosa Brown and Lizzie Wallace, High- Class Dance Artists That delightful pair of artists, Brown and Wallace, were cordially greeted when they opened the nightly opening night. Aside from being high-class performers, they make a speciality of dressing their parts. Get Him" written by Prof. Toney Jackson for the act. He is now playing at the Elite Cafe, Thirty-first and State Theatre. The costumes are brilliant and essentially allure. The gowns on the opening evening were of black silk, lining loosely from the shoulders, having the appearance of being between a cape and a mansported and yellow made for a soilder effect. It was bespangled with white beads, that of Miss Brown's with yellow beads, the loops's gown had a tricolor more slash at the bottom, and through which at times peeped a pretty member of the cast, rather saunterily on their heads. These were decorated with extra long black silk streamers, embling a woman, and rich looking parasols, also of the texture of the gowns, completed the outfit; of course, including the two lovely women; much more elaborate exhibiting a glamour loveliness. Miss Wallace does a pretty turn of the page. She sits on the brown sits at the piano, where she presides gracefully. This song is "Lone and Sweet Son of Chicago" produced by Wallace. Brown's talented song was a bit of good character setting, taking off an individual of her sex slightly in her cups. The singing and meting with The dancing is the feature of their act. In this, their last number, they do song, some dance, but with a musical dance whose artistic arrangement has been thought out by the fine artistic minds of the ladies. Here were all manners of dance, from the ancient Greek classic dances in part with the best of modern art. They moved over the stage with freedom, but through it they were greatly appreciated the effort. Johnson and Robinson, Novelty Act- Slack Wice Artist. These artists, Johnson and Robinson, in these songs, with rapid-fire talk, in which much fun is developed. Miss Robinson then sings "Chesapeake Bay," which was well The slack wire business is the feature, and a good one is the patrol, and a good one has seen no better in fact. Johnson, the male partner, does the same stunts as those seen on what he does, but he does it in the same case. His ring stunt, where he slings rings on and off of his body while he does the stunts, is a plausible Riding the wheel on the slack is clever. The handkerchief stunt perhaps it does not appear so, but must be so, if one will judge by the precaution and care of those who do the feat. It is not with the knee, but with the mouth while on the knees. The act was successful in every way, and the people were willing to see something new, more useful. Hester Kenton, a Crown Garden Farmer. Little Hester Kenton is a favorite at the Crown Garden. When her name appears on the bill something good happens. She puts on a three-poured good numbers, taking them off in her own great style. At the finish she puts over some of the numbers, bit of what's not the rage. The audience goes wild about her. This Kenton's songs are "Some Boy," "O So Sweet," and "San Francisco Bound." All of her numbers got her good applause. She was greeted with applause on her first appearance each Carrington and Juniper, Character Artists This team does a bit of song and dance work on entering, but they are essentially character artists, featuring a character Carrington has conceived a character that at once appeals as some old mummy that every one has known, or some parts of her story. The stuff is especially good, as much applause as he cares for. He is one performer who can regulate his applause. Juniper, as a kid, is also a personification of the mummy, all sorts of kids. You've met and yet you have not met him. You know him and you don't know him. He is a good dancer as well as a good kid impersonator. NEW YORK NEWS. Lincoln Theater. Bart Tyson, eccentric comedian in his singing and talking act, went nicely, Lee and Elisabeth and Kristen, the rest, one a "Street Sweeper," the other a "Mall Carrier." Both of these people are good singers and talkers. They are also good dancers, last half of the past week they played the Bon Ton theater in Jersey City, go on a dance show, and a singer, is good and one of the fastest dancers we have. She went big. Then she went to the audience, ringing up the audience. They were such a riot that after filling the week, were held on stage. They were Miss Graze Jones, singing comedienne, went nicely. Murphy and Walker, two as funny boys as one would want to be, Miss Graze Jones, should never be out of work. Little Rasus, that clever little back dancer, cleaned up the audience, were good. Mrs. Williams is a comedy act, were good. Mrs. Williams is a comedy tip, the scales at about 275 pounds, but is as nimble and light on her feet as a little girl. The entire bill of the week Lafayette Theater Harrison Stewart and company's act, entitled "The Boss Bootblack," was another winner. Harrison Stewart, a former comedian and is giving it to them. Miss Maud Jones has a part that allows her to show her ability as an artist. Miss Jones is a valuable woman in comedy, and she has comedians, went big. The Porto Rican Girls, with Davis and Salisbury, were an ensemble that pleased the large crowds that attended the performances, C. H. Coffey, one of as clever comedians as you would want to see, but they not their share of applause. Miss Helen Stevens, comedienne, went big. Last half, the Porto Rican Girls, with Davis and Salisbury, continued to please. Bert Man, man, went nicely. Hampton and Bowman, direct, so we are told, from Europe, came next and held them spellbound for a long time. Next to present the Negro players in a three-act musical comedy, "The Old Man's Bov," with thirty-five people. We figure it a starter of the many good big acts shows that we are to see at this house. Crescent Theater. This bill opened with Jack McCourt Accordion players. This fellow was very good. Buzzin and Logan in their singing and dancing, in which Mr. Buzzin is very THE FREEMAN. AN ILLUSTRATED COLORED NEWSPAPER very clever, and as a dancer is great. Miss Logan takes the part of a little kid in their act. She looks and acts the part well. Johnnie Woods, the ventriloquist, has been a treendous hit since his opening. He has an act that pleases the audience fro mstart to finish. The last half, T. F. Rogers, comedian and dancer, opened the bill. He does a great act and should have had a better spot on the bill. Rogers is some ragtime dancer. The Rose and Bell sister team was booked and billed on Monday but did not appear, so, instead, the Six Crazy Kollege Kids, a school act, we find it to be, but rotten, bum acts are keeping school ones out of work. Johnnie Woods, with his friend of Henry, came out in a new act, which was another riot. It went just as big as the first half of the week's act. Williams and Stevens are still holding everybody's feet to the fire, making their audiences scream fro mthe time they enter the stage until the full of the curtain. "How long are you there, boys?" "Indefinite." Family Theater. From Robinson and Ed Stafford were a treemind big hit at this house. Cary and Cary went nicely. Crosby and Naomu were the big noise the last half. Franklin Theater. This house had some of the best pictures last week that they have ever had. Pioneer Theater This little playhouse still continues to do a nice business. There were a number of great acts, singles and doubles, on this show. The singers are all smiles because business is fine. Fifty-Ninth St. Theater. Hunter's stock company seemed to be the big noise all last week at this place. The stock company, after a week's engagement, closed last Sunday night. Their shows were great and pleased large crowds where they open next we be able to say CHICAGO WEEKLY REVIEW Aida Overton Walker to Appear at the Patrol Meeting Patrolage. Will Be Expected. (By Sylvester Russell.) The extraordinary announcement that Alda Overton Walker, world-famed soultwere of the former Williams and Walker aggregation, is to appear at the Pekh theater for one week, commencing Monday, November 3, comes as a big surprise of the event. The new play will be a notable heat. It was the upheared on State Street a fact which will make her engagement memorial and not-worthy. If we are to briefly sum up the history of the foremost talented and fascinating actress of her race, the show's new show of Air Ocean Walk-spread the news that the Overall Walk-spills and the most entertained the Vanderbilt's and the most exclusive rich of America, but actually appeared before King Edward of England in the royal castle at Windsor before the crowned heads of Europe. She not only trod the the floor, but has charmed princes, dukes and lords in the palace of the king, and if it were to have a long time to be sufficient alone, the largest social athletics that ever assembled in the history of a female star at the Pekh theater. She will carry her own special company, which will be of the concert-vaudeville-exquisite order, such as Gilbert, Tangway and airy fairy Lillian. I have been the first to engage in the show for one week, with advances Thursday and Sunday. The advance sale of seats will begin October 27 at the theater, from 1 to 6 p.m., daily. The Bruces Go Big at the Grand—Tex Weatherford, Mimic, Hit of the Bruces Charles Bruce went back to minstrel days to show his ability as a comedian, and he was better than ever, and his skate dancing was unexcelled, and he wore some good clothing. He was well known, and well the Flip-Flop Greers were very good. Russell and Hartman had a fairly good cowboy sketch. The Greers completed the bill, the last half of the week had Taz Weatherford completed the bill, the Cycling Brunette completed the bill, who made a bit in his natural nature imitations.

RETROSPECTION As the audience sits before the curtain in anticipation of the performance on the boards, there may be a few of them who feel a sense of mind. A feeling of profound admiration comes over them, for a familiar name has been observed numbered among the players on the program. The audience is likely to touch and amuse us here or there, and this particular name or person brings recollections of other days to a few and the audience is likely to touch this name or person, ladies and gentlemen, is none other than Billy Young, an actor from the old school and one who has been a professional field. A man you may well feel proud of. THE FREEMAN, AN ILLUSTRATED COLORED NEWSPAPER for his calling was of the higher class entertaining and which included Shakespeare, peasant and dramatic recitations, good old-fashioned songs and neat dancing—"an all and all fellow for the good of the thing"—and endeavoring at all times to elevate the colored theatrical profession words too which can touch the very heart of the congregation. Its resolution was perfect and great inspiration was engendered by it. The selection from the Oratorio, in five divisions, each representing some scriptural story or song, was also superb, at AGENTS WA This man has given a helping hand to many a raw recruit and started him on a career in the theatre. We have in mind at this instant a performer who is classed as a top-notcher and has been successful, who was literally pushin' for the theatre during the days of McCaball Young's Minstrels, which was one of the biggest and best of its kind on the road. He has been with many shows, but has also been with companies and the Mahara Minstrels, where he spent nearly twenty-eight years with W. A. Mahara, who applauded at "Clever Billy Young" as he is familiarly known, has contracted tuberculosis and is in need of financial assistance. We have also seen the members of the theatrical profession are noted for their generosity, and we believe they will respond in this particular instance. Theatre can be found through The Freeplay or at 728 Leonard street, Dallas, Tex.

Ninety cavalry band, following the regular procession, were held, and large congregations attended each one, it being impossible to watch the chilly night atmosphere, the account of the chilly night atmosphere, The last concert was perhaps the best rendered open air concert ever heard in music, high-class selections only being rendered. The favorite selection seemed to be the "Stabat Mater" (Inflammatus), Rossini. It not only appealed to the assembled audience because of the exceptional sound, but also the modulation, poise, rhythm, in words, and words too which seemed to touch the very heart of the congregation. Its resolution was to give great inspiration was engendered by it. The selection from the Oratorio, in five divisions, each representing some scripture or song, was sometimes fairly taken in stride of its feet. The kindness of Colonel Galloway in permitting him to hand to render this very excellent concert, the paints taken by Prof. Hammond in preparing it, and the great reverence and admiration of the individual player, combine to lift the Ninth cavalry still higher in the estimation of Douglas people. The cavalry hand and head has rendered open air concerts in the City park once a week, with few exceptions, and now that the season for this enjoyment is over, the people of Douglas go out toward the Ninth cavalry hand and its leader, also kind and generous to a fault with the people of Douglas ever since he has been born. He is with the people of international speaking thus for the people of Douglas, and believes there is not a man, woman or child in the city who will heartily join in this sentiment. LOOK! NOTICE!

Tar Baby Gave a Poor Account of Himself—Was Too Fat—Johnson's Road Forfeited. I have noticed that quite often when discussions about comparative cleverness of latter-day boxers and former pugilists are in order, some cite will make reference to the marvelous Griffon, as if were a standard by which all that is clev. (By Billy Lewis.) I ventured the opinion that Sam Langdon was too fat, too stuffy, when he met Danielle October 3. It stands to reason that he was too fat, pounds, and still be as asile as she was before he took on the additional aid that I ventured the opinion, and I did that I am not alone. The following from Sam Langdon saw the fact of more authority: That, pot-bellied and slow, Sam Langford has gone away back. I don't think he could come again even for a light with me. That was the verdict of Charlie White, famous referrer, on the Langford-Jenette account. "He thinks he is "gone." The fat which made Langford look like a hoozer in the Jenette affair, white says. "If one of the lucky white hopes who can assimilate punishment can get Sam in the ring for half a dozen rounds, he will take Langford's scalp sure," was White's prediction for the most feared suggest of his day. Again the white hopes lost out. The opportunity to meet Sam Langford, apparently, would have been a great day for them. To have met and vanquished the Boston Tar Baby would have been fairly an equivalent to having met and van quished Jack Johnson. Of course, it was merely theory that Sam was as good as Jack, yet it looked good at that. Our Sam was beating the European Sam, and as he was heavyweight champion of that con-thet. Jack was becoming, enervated through ease and luxury, also through worry due to the ceaseless litigation in which he was engaged. Unless he were an iron man he would succumb to some extent to the insidious fees of his physical being. Sam Langford going up, Jack Johnson going down, is the way it was figured in the minds of the speculators in the game of Vestis. The net gain of the opinions was set down in Langford's That Sam has lost out at his end of the calculation. It appears that he fell prey to the seductions of Australia, whatever they were, toiling about, perhaps, gathering to his bones the undue obesity of some twenty-plus pounds. Where are we now at? I said at another time that the tail-under of the fighting quartette is now in the lead—the rearranging ofistic molecular forces. The two Sams practically suicided in Australia, or fought a duel to the "death." Neither of them seems to be worth a tinker's d—n since they quit the tropics. In fact, we on this side have not had a word of the Parisian idol for many a day. He is not in his dear Paris, or, if so, he's uncommonly meek, mute about it. And if he is there, he's no good. Our Sam wore him out, and everybody knows what's happened to our Sam. Some more theory, meaning that the two Sams are puglistic nobodies. Very truly the game of elimination has been going on, somewhat different from what it was through and under our very own rules. It it might be that elimination process has acted so differently to what was thought: or perhaps it was the game that eliminated business was mainly for weeding out Jack Johnson; at least it was thought. Now it appears that the thing was like a great game of chess, and that the great Negro fighters were moved about as pawns, and they all appeared in as overplowed horses. Jack Johnson fied the entanglement, and they appeared in as threatened with desition. The weakling, so thought of, the quartet remained with us to be mainly pummelers our own opponents, who would be development in the run of things. Imagination? Yes, perhaps, but just the same, it is what almost happened. CHICAGO—Federal Judge Carpenter, October 5, declared that Jack Johnson, Negro fighter, when he failed to appear to stand trial on the seven remaining counts against him, charging violation of This is the latest mote on the Johnson bond business. A few days ago it was stated that he had been put to an appearance in April next. Now it appears that the $300,000 is already forcified; that Jack Johnson month ago used. This is a calamity, to say the host. He has, so far, the distinction of being the only Negro that has ever been a victim of the money at once. It will not be thought, however, that he enjoys such a distinction. He well wishers almost hope he would have saved enough of the wreck to hold him together for the remainder of his days, he has drank his hemlock, but I hope not. PETER JACKSON WAS SKILLFUL AUSTRALIAN FIGHTER Naughton Pronounces the Big Black the "Most Perfect Boxer" the Antipodes Have Sent to This Country—some of His Notable Enquiries. (By W. W. Naughton.) SAN FRANCISCO, Cal.-A correspondent wants to know who, in the writer's opinion, all the Australian ringmen who came to America in the 80's and 90's. And, while I think of it, I might remark, "correspondent, asking me to fill a pretty large question. In the communication embodying the query the gentleman says: "I am a close reader of all that is in regard to ring happenings, and $3.50 REGIPE FREE, FOR WEAK MEN.

So we have determined to send a copy of the prescription free of charge, in a plain, or envelope to any man who will write us for it. This prescription comes from a physician who has made a sprain and, and we are, conditioned it is the surprazing combination for the cure of manhood and vigor failure ever put to use.

I have noticed that quite often with discussions about comparative cleverness of latter-day boxers and former pugilists and in the case of the main-of-the-main, as to the marvelous Griffo, as if he were a standard by which all that is cleverer in the glove game is reckoned. I have a friend who says that Griffo was the only boxer and that for useful cleverness he could not compare with George Dawson, Peter Jackson or Jim Hall, who were also Australians. What is your opinion of the time? Do you think the most perfect boxer in all the Australians who came here in the '60s and '60s? In regard to Griffo, I can only say that I do not have an opportunity of judging the young man's merits when he was at his best. I did not see him until he had passed his heyday, and then only once or twice in events for which he had had in writing. I had no idea to be concerned as to which way the decision went. He had degenerated into a Queensberry clown at the time of which I speak, and was more fired with the ambitous man, and he was so very much in the way of anything else. He retained sufficient of his hardness with the gloves to make things interesting for his opponents, but his blows were of the mushy order and his defense not only complete as it had been in for me, yet years. Whatever he might have been earlier in his career, Griffo was certainly more of a trick performer or jugger when I So far as Griffo may figure in a discussion of this kind, I would prefer to have opportunities of making comparisons between Griffo and other Australians when Griffo was at his best. Australia sent us some carefully edited books with my experience and recollections mellowed by years, I have no obstimation in saying that Peter Jackson was the "most perfect" antipodeus I have seen in real action. George Dawson had ideals of his own and did not how to the lines of the Maco and the Maco's, but he complained to him complained in the ring, he earned the right to be described as clever, but he was far from being as well balanced a piece of fighting as the Australians were extremely clever, having the fine points of the game at their command to a degree which made them appear graceful in action. Among the Australians who opposed to him O'Donnell was another; George McKenzie, a lightweight, was a very talented glove wilder and that scamp. George McKenzie was also opposed to him to foolish. Fitzjimmons boxed cleverly when he first came across, but when he began to study anatomy and devise knockout punches, he sacrificed art. Peter Jackson was the most talented exponent of the Mace school of boxing, and he was known for his how to lead and counter, and time and measure, and his footwork always rhymed back and subdued in a bewildering way, and he appeared to be always within range so far as his own attack was conceived, and he was known when his adversary tried retaliation. I remember Jackson's first match at the Mace school in 1888, when his adversary cisco back in 1888. His opponent was George Godfrey, the Boston colored heavyweight, who, on account of his endurance, never forget the palmed look which came over Godfrey's face when he first ran rallows and seemed to have an arm as long as an anar, picked Godfrey off his feet with a hunging bow, and Godfrey had proved himself a game fellow in many hard fights, but as he sat there that night the expression on his countenance or mingled surreptitiously in A little later in the evening George received a heart punch from Jackson's right, and wry gliding eyes and quivered eyebrows as he hand aloft and acknowledged defeat. Jackson's accurate knowledge of things he saw shattered by Big Joe McMahon's Mission Giant. For a number of rounds Jackson prodded the giant with straight lefts and kept his own head up. He was able to back fire. Then Jackson fainted McAuline into leading with the left. Joe straightened his arm and Jackson threw his head inside and side up, and he was gone. While doing so he brought his right across, and a sharp spat, followed by a trickle of blood from big Joe ear, showed that the giant had been offended. After that poor Joe was cut down slowly and scientifically. He was too big to be handled, and Jackson whipped him artistically and came out of the melee without a scratch. I am wandering away from mike point, but I am still there. It is for old-time critics to reminisce. In answer to my correspondent, I will simply repeat that Peter Jackson was the first to hand a strapless lamb to studyings I had opportunity of studying. WOLGAST WINS OVER NELSON IN HARD MILL Michigan Fighter Has All the Better of Dane, with Exception of T MILWAUKEE, Wils.-Ad Wolgast, of Cadillac, Mich., defended Battling Nolson, and node decision boxing contest October 12. Wolgast had the better of eight of the tour contests. The tour contest was the hardest and fastest ever seen here, both men appearing anxiously to put the other out. He was the first to win swift battle, and three times had the Dane groggy. He used his left to the chin and right to the face with great force, but the Batter ally was not. Dane Shows Well at Times Nelson, bored in continually and at times showed flashes of his old-time form, but his blows lacked force. Both tired toward the front of the contender, and the contender boring in intacties, but Wolgast was far the fresher at the close. Blood was flowing, from the Dane's nose, car and lips from the hard and sharp teeth. It was Wolstaz's fight after the first round. He drew his first blood with a blow to his left hand and the round was over, and except for the second round, had much the better of his opponent. Wolgast Staggers Nelson. In the second round four clean swings to the jaw caused Nelson to reel, and, on recovering, he could not land effectively. Wolgast landed Nelson and poured a slower of blows upon his face. Nelson played for the body, but his blows lacked power. Wolgast forced his opponent to the rear and landed in the fifth knocked him nearly through. In the fifth Nelson landed a heavy blow in the face which sent Wolgast's head up. Nelson was apparently tired when the round ended. Charlie White, of Chicago, challenged the winner before the end of the bout, Jimmy Britt and Jimmy Clabby were introduced to the big crowd of spectators. Harry Stont was the third man in the ARTHUR E. DORTCH, Greatest Colored Pool Player in the Country—His Record. Arthur E. Dortch, who is known from coast to coast as being one of the greatest colored pool players in the world, was born in San Francisco. Mr. Dortch is now located in San Francisco, and still loves the game, but, owing to a bad eye, which has been a great drawback for upstart players, he is not sure how to give up the game to an extent, so far as important games are concerned, but manages to hold his own with the majority of opponents. In 1902 Mr. Dortch defeated Bob Ridley at Scott Walker's place, where he pursued, where thousands of dollars changed hands on the result. Mr. Ridley at that time was fourteen years old, private eyes, representing himself THE FREEMAN. AN ILLUSTRATED COLORED NEWSPAPER to be the champion colored pool player from New York State. In the same year he met and defeated Bad Boy, in Seattle, and colored pool player west of the Rockies. In 1912 Mr. Dortch met and defeated Mack Smart, of Denver, for the colored championship of Colorado State. This victory made Mr. Dortch a prominent Club, which is controlled by Mr. Nick Walker. Mr. Walker lost, considerable money, and Mr. Smart went broke. This was Mr. Dortch's last game of importance. He was under the specialist's care; but with all that he hopes to be able to entertain some of the best of them doing the Panama-American position in San Francisco in 1913.

Sporting Editor The Freeman: I have fully recovered all of my strength, and I am going good again. I am now ready to settle matters with all welterweights. On October 12 I had my shirt light this fall. I was very told that I have improved wonderfully since last spring. I guess my stay at the seashore had a lot to do with it. I was at the Langford-Jeanette flight. To my idea it was a good fight. I guess there were some people who went there to see one or the other of them killed. They were disappointed. Jeanette clearly outboiled him in seven of the ten rounds. I see you are giving Kid Hoy quite a send-off in your paper. He is a good boy, but he ought never to say that he is a champion. That takes up a little too much ground. I offered to box him last winter in Buffalo, winner take all, letting him come in at catch-weight, which would have the best of it.

Bean, commonly known in boxing circles as Kid Hoy, who has been giving a good account of himself through this second season.

I have appeared in seven games, and have always promoted the promoters could secure on both sides, black and white, and have always returned the winner. In my last contest, I was the winner of the fight. October 6, before the North Side Gymnasium, even the referee stated that on account of the betting on the bout he was the winner, he saved himself severe trouble, as my performance was the greatest ever seen in Evansville, Ind. He is a champion, and are meeting every boxer who is a city's favorite, the champion must be in the pink of condition, show class, and do much to improve his performance, comes to being paid, a colored champion is neglected in many ways.

Association Eleven Falls to Score—I U. Scores Two Touchdowns. The colored boys of Indiana University defeated the Y. M. C. A. football team in the first game of the season, in the first game of the season by the score of 12 to 0. The visitors scored a touchdown in both halves, but failed to score in the second half. The college boys displayed more team work than the local team, due probably to the fact that the association eleven had shown up bad offending practice, and the college boys displayed more effective trick plays, one on which they scored their second touchdown. The J. U. team, showed good generalism in directing plays to follow up advantages which netted numerous victories and counted for some good traits for the collegians. At the close of the first half of the game Cousins had some valuable information which would have changed the tune of the score, but unfortunately, Lewis, right guard, told De Franz that his man was weeds and "all in". De Franz gave instruction to the second half part of the line. When the second half began, plunge after plunge was made in the line.
