XXVI NUMBER 44 MARVELS OF THE Graphically Describes by L. ness to the Building o THE NEGRO'S PART IN T Government Loans "Slides" in the Inter- Meeting to Protest Against Racial Speaks for Equality Before the Law go as an American" - Miscellaneous (By R. W. Thompson.) Bureau of The Freeman, 1337 Wallace Place, N. W. WASHINGTON, D. C., October 30. **Popular interest in the Panama Canal news in volume and intensity is that it stimulated as the beginning of a revoluion in the commerce of the western world or as a suspense in the Panama Canal furniture common ground upon which the merchant prince and the humblest layman may meet in inquiry and wonderment in the West Indies, South America and the islands of the Pacific, like their brethren of lighter hue, are anxious to learn more about the link that connects the two oceans over which they are most likely to travel on which they are not to do business. The states of the South, where eight millions of American Negroes live and an介national channel of trade for other millions of dark-skinned peoples in the West Indies, the Panama Canal or the Argentine channel of trade for other millions of body politics, besides farmers, cotton planters, shipbuilders, wartime men, tribal communities commercial results that are expected to grow out of the opening of inter-oceanic artery, an event to occur in anticipation of the keen curiosity that will be excited by the opening of the Canal, Lloyd S. Carrington, an entrant in the Panama Canal Commission to exert control over the United States government, showing the various states of the construction of the Canal, from its inception to its practical com Negro's Part in Building Great Water way. These slides, embracing several hundred separate views, give a vivid portrait of the dredging of the shallows, the marvelous work of the gigantic steam-building of the 18th century, and the building of the locks, the picturesque scenery along the line of the waterway, showing the massive Gatun dam, the Celebra Cut, the racing Chagres river, and the pretty harbors at either end of the 18th century. The two images and the Panama at the Pacific terminus, both destined to be seaports of international fame. The history of the Canal will be greenically traced. From the early ex-merchants by the French, the revolving of the 18th century, the re-occurrence of the canal Zone" by the United States, and the labors of the Isthmian Canal Commission, directing the skilled builder and broad-visioned Gen. Goethals, to the tri-mphal close of the operations, marked the beginning of the development of the mighty oceans, to be followed shortly by the entrance of naval dreadnoughts and the speedy merchantmen that carry the commerce of the world in their capaciousness. Not only does Mr. Carrington tell of these things in the lectures, which the government's "slides" are to illustrate, but he will detail the helpful part the others have played in the construction of the canal. The first part of this great work of men employed and the waxes they have been paid. The manners and customs of these thrifty people, their joys and their sorrows, their hones and their achieve-ments, will form a large chapter in the history of the canal. The first part of this story is, of course, a view that is not an American public. Not least in the catalogue will be a clever analysis of the trade relations invenced by the canal, as regards both the white and black races, and the economic importance of the canal. It will be taken from the details of the channel, viewed from the standpoint of The educational value of these illustrated lectures is to be seen at a glance, and the Isthmian Canal Commission contests a boon upon all in permitting the use of the governments vast picture gallery for this enlightening purpose. Mr. Carlington, trained in the best schools of Barbadoes, is admirably equipped to talk on the "ins and outs" of the canal, having spent seven years along the line of construction, studying every detail while serving as a clerk, and in intimate touch with chiefs and subordinates, engineers and laborers. Mr. Carrington is now a student in the law department of Howard University. He has already a large number of dates engaged, but is willing to deliver this series of informing talks on the Panama Canal to any audience in the District or vicinity if invited by churches, organizations, schools, etc., for time not yet taken. He can be reached by addressing his through the law department of Howard University. Mr. Carrington is a fluent speaker, is eloquent without flourish and his facts and figures on the Panama Canal are such that cannot be obtained from any book now on the market. He can be heard to advantage by all who wish to learn at first hand the inside history of the century's most notable "The Negro as an American." An address much cut out of the usual channel was delivered Tuesday evening at the Metropolitan A. M. E. Church, by Rev. W. A. Taylor, pastor of Dr. Taylor's Florida Avenue Baptist Church, as the secular weekly feature of the Bethel Liturgical and Historical Association, of Dr. Taylor's bloodshed was "the Necessity of American," and he aroused his hearers with his pitch of enthusiasm by proclaiming that he be the next American of the present church, the next of the residence, absorption of highest ideals of the modern world, acceptance of the Christian faith and the new republic, fighting its battles and defending its industries, uninspired by alien blood and not reinforced by foreign immigration in three-fourths of a century. Dr. Taylor saw many reasons that the Negro is rightfully the traditional white man, all rights, privileges and immunities that others in American citizenship. Negro's claim to preferment our rankin those of the Indian, because the former is the standard of the people and the religion of the people and the continent; the latter has not. The Negro is a virile force in the productive mind of the people, the ward and dependent." The speech was one of the best to which Bethel has forth a vigorous discussion in which the proud history of the Negro was spread luminously before an apprehension and music was furnished by the mirably trained choir of the Florida Avenue Baptist Church, under the leader, Harri, formerly of Tuskegee Institute. Next Tuesday evening Bethel Literary will introduce Dr. W. S. Hodder, an author, some inside history touching "The political Life of the Haitians," which, in the light of recent developments, is a fascinating subject. 11 Rev. T. J. Moppis, pastor of the Nerick Memorial A. M. E. Zion Church, of Philadelphia, will speak. November 18 will be the evening of November 25 will come the public meeting of the National Necklace placing Bethel Literary in the front rank of the intellectual and social life of the nation's captain, and is more than a selection of works. Protesting Against Segregation Along the Color Lines... Metropolitan A. M. E. Church was packed to suffocation Monday evening and hundreds were unable to gain admiration. The great mass of churchmen, who were meeting of colored citizens to protest against the studied effort of the American people to segregate the Negroes from the White, were in the process of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. The local chapter is presided over by Mr. Archibald H. Grinkl. The vigorous and prodigious efforts of the American people will be taken before the low were delivered by Hon. Oswald Garrison Villard, editor of the New York Evening Post. Rev. John H. H. H. was the chief editor of the New York Evening Post, with Walter H. Brooks, of this city, and others.

SCOTT Chicago Defender has a Striking Editorial on the Rise and Worth of Tuskegee's Secretary. MAJOR LYNCH'S BOOK WILL SOON APPEAR! The New Monogram Theatre Throws Open its Doors Amid a Blaze of Glory—Aida Overton Walker with Thirty Stars, at the Pekin Next Week - Banker Jesse Binga to Visit Tuskegee Institute—Danabegay at Oakland Music Hall Nov. 26—Brilliant and Successful Concert Given—Prof. Zueblin's Lecture. CHICAGO, Ill., Oct. 8, $—(Special)—In the issue of the Chicago Defender of October 35 appeared a striking and in-depth example, "journalling by downing facts in the character and career of Mr. Emmett J. Scott, of Tuskegee Institute, and the intellectual circle of the young men of Chicago to ascertain more of the causes tending toward the success of Mr. Scott and to find other young achievements are worthy of study and simulation. This is a very significant promise for ever better things for the rising young men of the day. The editorial of the Defender is worthy of repetition. A Fitting Example. "Probably no more than fifteen years ago Mr. Emmett J. Scott was a news reporter for news, a well trained mind and his writings, attracted Dr. Booker T. Washington. He was given a place in the executive secretary of the noted educator, then his executive secretary, and a record of the institute. This is the remarkable record of what a young man with ambition and preparation is accustomed to work with. Mr. Scott singularly fitted for the position which he now holds and his appointment is a constant. Under Mr. Washington's tutelage Mr. Scott is able to keep Tuskegee MR. EMMET J. SCOTT. in its splendid condition during the principal absence. Not only has he made a brilliant success at the institute but he has been a large factor in the success of the National Negro EBusiness Men's League. One of the most significant honors to come to Mr. Scott was his appointment ... the President of these United States as one of the three commissioners to study the people of Liberia. Let our young men pattern after Mr. Scott and maybe they too can leave their present plane for one higher; there is always room at the top for the man In the light of this editorial it is not surprising that young men should be attentive to the importance of Tuskegeean whose dune has been spread upon two continents and whose name is Tuskegee. The Tuskegee world as the efficient the successful, and able secretary of Tuskegee Institute, the greatest industrial school in the United States, is the ing tsker and a versatile writer as is disclosed weekly by his pungent and 'forceful writings in the Tuskegee Stu- Article in Journal of Race Development Sometimes also Mr. Scott had a very interesting and instructive article in the journal *Society for Economic Journal*. Worth a Slavery. The article showed that Mr. Scott is a keen observer, a clear thinker and a student of public affairs with laziness and for making mistakes. He has a strong sense of truths he has collected for them. Dr. Washington has long ago demonstrated to the world his power to select men in the country with the powerful forces which share and control the affairs of America. His work at Tinkercreek is one of the most successful ever erected to the genius and industry of man. No one can see it and study it without receiving a liberal education on the subject. Mr. Scott's writer is planning to make a visit to this great institution in January and observe the meeting of the Farmers' Club Formed. A new club has been organized here among the young men to study the careers of young men of the race who are interested in the business of running, editorial on Mr. Fennett Scott, secretary of the Traskeee Institute, has not only attracted attention of the young businessmen, but also of the cause of getting them together for the purpose of studying and finding out who are making rapid and permanent successes in the running. Barry W. Garnes, and Mr. Walter Anderson, secretary. Dr. Garnes is the leading and successful dentist in the country, and Mr. Anderson, estate dealer. Dr. Garnes was seen at his office by the Freeman correspondent and he said, "I am the individual who while it is good to know of the big men of the race PRICE FIVE CENTS. SINGLE COPY—SIX MONTHS, 85c; ONE YEAR, $1.50 of advanced years, it would also be an issue that many of the men who have overcome obstacles of the present day and have made a success, would not be able to make the materials of young men should be known by us and for these and other reasons, this would be at my office to formulate future plans." Mr. Barnett Becomes President Mr. Claude A. Barnett, who has been doing general advertising business in the past, has been successful as the advertising agency in the Crisis and a a dozen of the leading newspapers, and a dozen of the leading industries and perseverance he through industry to reach the big white advertising agency is able to accomplish this.

It is believed and hounded that the colored people of Louisville will take a decided stand against this show of South African violence and stay with it to the bitter end.

It is as a certified that this is one of the several reasons why he is nursing a grocer's or a cartier's. It is but fair that all parties concerned to create that we have made no such injuries and a letter from the Burns Detective Agency, a carbon copy of which we have furnished Mr. Tyler's declares empatically that no requests for information concerning Mr. Tyler have ever been received by them from us.

In April of this year The Indianapolis Freeman was enlarged and made the largest national weekly (colored) illustrated paper in this country. Since then the management has been making preparations to issue the largest holiday number ever issued by an Afro-American publication in the history of Negro journalism. We expect to give to the public the most suburban number we have ever issued. It will be profusely illustrated and the best thinking people of the race will contribute to its columns. Many of our most prominent men and women will write special articles on timely subjects. Our stage page will be unequaled by any other publication in the country. The many hundreds of colored performers now appearing in vaudeville since the opening of nearly five hundred colored theaters will have their pictures appear in this number. Our great record in baseball and other sports will be exposed. Our improved space for advertisements will be filled to almost an overflow. Our mechanical department has been immediately prepared to give over way and we are prepared to set up an extensive amount of advertisement. The main thing we urge everybody to do is write to us early this year for space if you want a good position for your write-up, picture and illustration. You write us for what you want and we will be glad to hear from you and answer you at once. Don't forget the Christmas edition and be too late. And they love Sulzer for the enemy he has made. It is quite natural that Bookwalter would like to enjoy the beautiful city hall that he had so much to do with bringing about. It's no mean ambition. Some say that Dr. Johnson resembles Abraham Lincoln. He reminds one of Caesar's picture of Caius—looks lean and hungry. The colored men attending the Methodist men's meeting this week in our city were a distinguished appearing group. They stood for the prospect of the race in every conceivable way. It is said that President Wilson will hear the protests of Negroes against segregation in November. If he hears all of the opposition to segregation he will not find time to do anything else much for some time. The National Negro Semi-Centennial Exposition Association, of Illinois, is beginning to make a noise like an exposition. It will give a grand reception and ball at the Seventh Regiment Armory, November 27. The exposition will be held in 1915. Joe Hill. of Shelbyville, Ind., according to report will be consul to Port Au Prince, Hayti. If its true old Indiana is going some—getting a corner on the diplomatic jobs. But we are from Missouri. Joe may be slated for the post, then again he might not be. White or colored teachers in Florida will be fined or imprisoned if they are found teaching schools other than of their respective races. Imprisonment is a very harsh condition to name in connection with persons engaged in the profession of teaching—simply because the teaching is done where it is not expected. R. W. Thompson, the Washington correspondent of The Freeman merely said: "If you see it in The Bee it isn't so." You should see what the editor of that publication had to say in reply. He talked about his "folks" and everything else. He told him what he is now and what he would be in the days to come. The Methodist men took the city by storm this week. This organization is of the great M. E. church. The M. E. church among the Negroes is a part of this religious body. Among the delegates were perhaps fifty colored men, who hailed from various parts of the country. They were enthusiastic representing in all ways the import of the meeting. J. C. Napier, of Nashville, Tennessee former register of the treasury, was honored with a banquet by the citizens recently when returning to his home from Washington, D.C. The occasion was a splendid testimonial to the distinguished gentleman who has proven in every way worthy of the best expressions of regard from the colored people wherever they are. The Colored Citizens' Civic and Commercial League of Minneapolis Minn., had a formal opening of its headquarters in that city October 29. Addresses were delivered by Hon. Julius A. Schmahl, Hon. E. J. Westlake, Judge J. H. Steele Mavor Wallace Gne, Hon. A. V. Relke, Hon. Wm. Morris, Dr. R. S. Brown, master of ceremonies. George L. Knox was honored by an invitation to be present. Suzer has been nominated for the legislature of New York by the Progressive party. It is thought that he will be elected. He hones to again the governor of his state. His return --- to that office is devoutly hoped for by his many friends throughout the Union. These have nothing in common with his irregularities, if any. They are for him because of his enemy Tammany. The Negroes are for him because he was for them. The segregation signs are down in the public buildings at Washington, but the thing is going on just the same. The race might have been spared that humiliation. We have said that the thing is not new to the country generally. We are startled in seeing it introduced in public places by the great big American government. What will history say? But who cares what it says? What does humanity say—man's humanity to man? A full-blooded African chieftain has just passed his entrance examination at Harvard with flying colors, and will enter the University as a member of the 1917 He is P. Gbe Wolo. His people, 300, 300 strong, are the Krus of Liberia. They have no written language, so that the only way he can communicate with his family is through traders on the coast, who send the message by word of mouth along the trail—The Christian Index. He may not need so much education as he is going to get, that is, if he intends to work among his people. However, it won't hurt him if he won't let it hurt him. Will he take his education home with him or will he stand around and spend it in the United States? THERE IS A RACE QUESTION. One of the bishops when attending the convention of the Protestant Episcopal church said: "It sounds to me like either affection or ignorance to hear that there is no Negro problem; there has been dispute and discussion north and east, south and west, as to the best method of dealing with the question of his uplift." Indeed there is a race problem, and the very worst that has been in the history of the world. There is no promise of satisfactory solution in sight. We cannot rely on that well known proposition, that nothing is settled until it is settled right. The most to be expected is a compromised condition wherein both races will have encamped something. The Negroes know, as a whole, their unworthiness to mingle freely with the white race as a whole. Those of the sparsely Negro populated North do not see it that way, perhaps, but it is known and admitted by the thoughtful, observing Negroes in the sections of large Negro population. We may say that thoughtful Negroes everywhere concede a lack of preparedness, and which is quite natural. They do not, cannot pit the two experiences, the evolutions of the two races with the hope of anything like a successful conclusion that means equalness. This will be considered a severe statement, and it is, yet, is truthful statement, and what man as well be admitted as beyond. Beyond this discouraging fact is that of racial differences, and we have always been of the parting of ways between races. To obliterate all differences is unthinkable, consequently, we will compromise them to the extent of our ability if we have in mind the betterment of racial relations. This new attitude if it may be so called, still leaves very much to do, and in the interest of this Christian and humane age. It stands to reason that the advance thinkers of the white race, Christian men, religious men, humane men are trying to reconcile the attitude of the white race toward the colored people in the light of Christianity of religion, of humanity. How much prejudice may be exhibited the Negroes without imperiling Christianity, religion? This is the hard nut that those individuals have to crack. They, too, more so than ourselves, know that racial lines will never totally disappear. Their object is to tone up the Negroes in all of his activities, to tone down the white people in their opposition, making for a meeting place that will be most acceptable to God Himself, and of course, to the races. To be very rigid one could well ask, what would Christ have done? What would He do now in the matter? These are fearful questions. Men lie from them. Yet we implore the Christ spirit in most of our doings. But we are not willing to insist on such questioning in view of the world's practicality or perhaps the practicality of the Christ, if this were His duty of the Christ, if this were His duty no be different to what we know as the views of the people of this day. None of us are willing to apply the tenets of Christ for guidance other than in purely religious affairs. Yet we can scarcely disassociate religious affairs from the other affairs of men. But men are struggling for the position spoken of—one that will be acceptable to those concerned. As long as they struggle the intent will be as good as the deed. It is not so but the effort. The effort to see the Negroes in a more humane light is to the world. Christianity, religion will slow along as long as it finds itself unable to dispense equal blessings or to make for common opportunity among men. KENTUCKY'S CAPITAL!

He thinks of trying the French Lick Springs water in a few days. Jugaling. Minstrel Morris has been at the Crown Garden before; made good, as he is doing in this engagement. Morris is more than a juggler. He is a comedian, and a good one. He gets off first-class gags and plays with his audience, and makes him gigging. He makes happy hits, and all the while the audience is bubbling over with merriment. The big iron ball tossing stunt is the feature, percussion, and the untested catching it on his shoulders and arms. Tossing the high hat to his head from various positions makes a hit.

I had fun of good pictures, with several pictures that pleased the audience; also a picture that pleased the audience; also a Navy. Baker and Smith, in their second week in New York, showcased the play, house music, and new songs, dances and costumes. The usual run of good pictures closes a nice window. Foraker. Big doings here. Country store twice a week. Lots of fun, especially to those who get something. A great collection of vintage items. A great sampler, was on the bill. His bad and desperate past life was a big box office attraction, a big crowd turning out nightly to see him and his gambling devices. This week a sensational picture, founded S. H. Dudley. The Broxtons were right on the job and knew what to do. Jeffery and Dee Lynn close the bill. Their work is too week, too need, neat, too much, too many, in a place speaks for itself. Some old team. A classy bunch of pictures enclose an hour and a half. Fairyland. All pictures this week. A big country store. Lots of good pictures nightly with special features, in two reels. Those deserving of special mention were "A" Countess and "Stars and Stars forever." Countess has a great amount of apology and clearing. Chelsea. The Hill sisters, two pretty little misses, full of life and vim, captivated and loved, coming on the stair with a smile, and the best of them is the best sister team that ever played. Miss Marriott, singing "You Made Me," had them humming it with her, cleaning up for fair. Then came Josephine, who had them bodying it with her, bodying and revealing a generous amount of applause. She reminds one of the late George Walker, and my, how that girl always deceived me with her special body and revealing earned them a build-over in the second week here. Usual good pictures, four pictures, with two special pictures, the best the bill this house ever had. (By Billy E. Jones.) Happy Julius Glenn is seen to good advantage in the role of Jim Jackson in the new play. "My Friend From Kentucky at the New Lafayette, the best-selling book," Most of all the waltz ballad hit sweeping the country and novelty. "You're the Moon and a Ragtime Lung." The record藻罗尔的发行者, and Creamer musical comedy, entitled the Old Man's Boy! was enjoyed by the new crowd at last week at the Lafayette, after new Model Bill Harper as the leading comedian is a funny as ever. Alice Gorgas scored a number of the first-time series. "I'm a number of the first-time series so much as you know," Grace Lee Cooke in her song series scored in her usual way. Chas. Ging, and the show's new performance, is the many roles he played. Mr. Henry Cre�'s artistic and whirlwind dance with the farming little Ruth Cherry elicited. "I'm a play-plove," Alex Rogers as the old man acts and took the arm as Miss Lulu Lawson may join the Brooklyn Pretenders, that classy colored act. My friend from Kentucky, Lubric's Hill's, has play a little as the fayette's after Monday and scored his hits. The son of My Friend From Kentucky, in the following artists, Julins Ging, and the Fatti show and Gaines's hit in the "The Lover" show, who is a hit in the Cole and Johnson Company when he featured the song "On the Road to Tomorrow." Johnnie Peters, Alice Rame and the civilizing bonheure late of the retired band of the "Psyche" issue. Brown, Flossie Brown and one of the best singing chorus of any color comedy takes the principal role in the play wrote the music book and lyrics. The play is well staged and with good comedy dialogue with the catchy songs and bright costumes the audience was not slow in appreciating the efforts of the performers seen here this season...Frank Montgomery and Florence McClane are still Miss Luu Lanson the only scored her usual success with the Nero players last at the Lafayette theater in New York. She indoctrinably be heard from in the near future. DAYTON, O. The New Pekin Theater Another striking number of the Pekin bill this week is the Woodens, in their rest. The team holds the audience, both white and colored, amazed at the bicyclist and unicyclist features, and they receive continued applause, while Mr. Wooden sorts of perilous looking and thrilling shirts. Another clever team came. The patrons of this house several weeks, and upon their first appearance of the two teams, nearly and welcomes reception by a crowd. Just to mention that the Two Swets had returned caused loud expressions of "I'm ready to join the team," formation of the two teams this week really is worth double the admission. Special program Sunday; matinee and AUDITORIUM THEATER PHILADELPHIA Burton and Hibertson, comedy and music; good. Brown Girls, pretty act, good. McDaniels and Edmonds, comedy and singing, good. Black Hovelini, escape act, good. After the show Monday was paid in full and Robert Allen, comedian, was put in his place for the balance of the week. He went good. Owing to big business, popular stars will also go on every day, commending Monday, November 3, one show. PARISIAN BEAUTIES AT THE MA- JESTIC, INDIANAPOLIS. A. M. Zinn, the well-known Pacific coast author, is sponsor for "A Night in the City," with Sim Williams "Parisian Beauties." Mr. Zinn also wrote the music as well as staged the comedy. The harbour scene is some of the most memorable in the turkey trot, a short time ago, was all the THE WOMEN'S HOLIDAYS ingeneue, with, "The Parisian Beauties," at Majestic Theater all next week. page but also Vivia Gray, who staged the dance number and originated the "Harem trot" for the "Parisian Beauties," the poor old turkey trot is a thing of the past. Society has taken to the Harem to show that no social function is complete until the Harem trot has its inning. Local theater-goers will have the opportunity to see this seasonal performance, which the theater presents the "Parisian Beauties" in "A Night in a Harum." Lincoln Theater. Dong Crosby did a nice singing and talking act. Dixon and Hanson, well known to the Harlem audience as two of the most popular performers, was well received by all; yes, to speak plainly, they were a tremendous big hit. Another nice act on the bill was Paul McCartney, who performed the bill. They brought to the Harlem rolks, after an absence of several months, an act consisting of a little of everything, a little of everything, a little of everything, and is able assisted by his lady partner, Mrs. Thornton. The last half opened with Sy Ardinger Rube, did a nice act, and the band returned with their own and original way of working, which always pleases each and every audience they appear before. DeLoree, female impersonator, came to the theater and Crimper, closed the bill, going great. Lafayette Theater. Alex Rogers and Henry S. Creamer, writers and producers of the three-act play, the Old Man Son, the new-act play, the other film has work, and did a tremendous big business. The show was good, has been radically changed and cast, and has been so good that the show was as the home of the Wilson's, with Alex Rogers as the Old Man, Hiram Wilson, and Andrew Bishop, as the new-act play. He has been so good to advantage and is very funny throughout the show. Henry Creamer and Grace Leeswood are the best-selling story-line on song, full of graceful dancing. Miss Jesse Ellis has a nice voice and sang well, and was highly in my opinion, is what he has to do with a real prime donna and would be termed a real prime donna, and the audience seemed to think so, too, from the point of view he received them and was making those, lucid notes and thrilling cademans. Charles Gilpin put on his sketch, "The Rocks and the Rocks" and the book, "The Rocks and the Rocks" and his work, "The Rocks and the Rocks" and his act is far from the best-making show. He has been so good that the Lafayette theater recently, he was a bigger scream that before, so you can see if the goods accompanied the show after the show. He is not the same time again. Mr. Gilpin is not a performer, but an actor, a character man of no mean ability, and as he did this in the many roles, he did them well. Miss Ruth Cherry deserves great praise for her work of the film. Mr. Henry Creamer, the new-act play, as he's a very great character. Mr. Henry Creamer, a boy, played the part well. "Too much man, he said, " he was a man of no one, and it will be long remembered by the show-going people of New York. Crescent Theater. Frank Frank Sharp, white, did a nice single. He sang and anaconda and Sunda. two real Indians, but to hear them work one would think it an American act. He would say it was a day sang a ballad, and gave a recitation. The two o'clocked their act with their own native dance, which was the only thing they did. They were more than this they did an American act, but they were great, and their work went big with the audiences. Johnnie Woods did an act for the audience and he was compelled to answer to several curtain calls. Williams and Stevens brought forth another hot act, which kept the audience awake. The fall of the curtain. Then came Prof. Wilkins, doing a little of everything, in which he did a tambourine solo, a song and a closing number. The act was well received. The sister act Radcliffe and Nelion Woods again brought forth a new act and was again heavily applauded. So did Williams and Stevens, who closed the curtain and the audience home in the best of cheer. Family Theater. Anderson and Richardson did very well, Outen and Sewell did nicely, then Howen and Daniels did very nicely, Daniels did a very nice act and were well received. The manager here reuses to talk much of his coming week's attractions, and he gives good one, and we also dind business great. 59th Street Theater. John Street Heater. This little heater has its crowd and a good glow, every night. Franklin Theater Here we still have pictures and the here we still have pictures and the here we still have pictures and the here we still have pictures and the Pioneer Theater This house had a good show all week.

TOIL OVER WASHTUB PRODUCES POET Here is a Simple Story of Mother Love "A Simple Story of Mother Wilger" Jurke Surprise Few who witnessed the performance of *Odem Tutt Whitney*, the Negro comedian who the typical, ignorant, youth surmise that play is in real life a well-educated, midmature man who carries a poet's soul and is able to write a book, less, and according to his own story he will all that he is or might become in life, and day and day over a washub for years, give him and her eight children a mass of Negro mothers, but the fact that 'oare are others does not less Whitney's pinion that his own mother was the best Whitney's father was a Metropolitan minister, and it was his desire to make him a doctor. His teachers wanted him to be a doctor. His natural aversion to beholding human suffering made him decide not to study medicine, but rather to be a doctor died while he was yet a child, he actually did take up studies for the man he had passed. He had passed his final examinations in the high school at Indianapolis and before graduation day he went to job his older brother had taken two weeks. The two weeks stretched over the course of the stage has held him ever since. However, he spent all his spare time in reading, giving particular attention to the books he took a course in journalism between times and from time to time contributed to his success in the country. When some years ago the Filipino delphia Awards offer a prize for the best editorial submitted by its readers, the widow of his teacher he is not engaged with his stage work, and his ambition is to write something that is worth while and that will This studiousness he attributes entirely to the training he received from the school, a simple soul, who painfully learned to read and write after her marriage. While she never taught her children should get the best education in her power to give them. Left a widow and children on her shoulders, she took care of them, it meant incarce labor over the washstub. But she did it herself, proud day in the lives of her children when she provided her with a good home in Philadelphia in when to sound her voice to her children. Whitney has expressed his love for his mother in a noble little poem, which is his most important lesson. He showed vindication of her labor so that it illustrates how well she succeeded in him, a good education and a fine character. The Old Washtub. (Dedicated to the Memory of Mother) Rub-a-dub-dub, rub-a-dub-dub. From morning dight in the old wash- room. With back that is aching, limbs tired and sore, the best ooing cooing from every nore. Stands Manow, with never a word of complaint. With courage and fortitude worthy a saint. "My ooest must be cloaked and sent to school; Don't nobody say I raised a fool." So rub-a-dub-dub, rub-a-dub-dub, Mammmy stands and scrubs in the old room. Rub-a-dub-dub, rub-a-dub-dub, A familiar tune from the old wastub. The artist who painted "The Man with With that look of soulless, honestless woe was an artist imitated; but I wondered but not that painter Martin Minnell painter him paint her flushed and red. The white steam a bale ground her eyes and the rain a bale ground her ears. The faith, hero and patience that never hears, painter her kiss on my kinky pate. 'and be hurry to school, son, don't be late.' Paint her look of pride when back home I raced The first time her name on my slate I traced But how could he paint the hymn shed bum While fooseing time with her washboard strum? *Debraabohhah, rub-a-bohhah,* *The abstinence time of the old wastum,* *You may talk of the man behind the gun,* *And write and sing of the deeds he's* *done.* *But when history is writ of the Negro* Our Mammies are bound to have first place— place First they in our history, horse and heart. For the hammers gave the boys their start. And the men march on the rub a-dub That their Mammies played in the old wasitub. From a Southern Foblication. This fine title poem is an index to be a character of the man who wrote it. Unlike many of his race who have entered the theatrical world, Whitney's life is free from the dissipation that so often follows success. His success had been won by the work of the continues to work ever planning ahead and putting his whole will to the accomplishment of his plans. For this he also thanks his mother, who implanted a sturdy character in his health-type body. His interest is out of course, but most wholly intellectual, and he strives at all times to interest others of his race in just such things. Always there are books being handed around among the members of his company. It is a medium of the effort of the race and he contributes to many other publications. The burden of the problems of his race, their ignorance, in many cases their shifttnessess, and many of their shortcomings, the heavy his heart and by tongue and pen and other efforts he strives always to do his share toward solving them. He records the best type of Southern white men as the Necro's best friend and looks to them for great melody the ultimate solution of these problems. By nature Whitney is serious-minded, though a sensibility that has always wanted to play serious roles and admits there are times when he is not able to help him from doing this. However, he is not the kind to become zooooo, a situation, and accents the responsibilities THE FREEMAN. AN ILLUSTRATED COLORED NEWSPAPER. cheerfully. In short, he is a creditable product of the toil of a typical Negro Mammy. "And the men march on to the rub-a-dub-dub That Mammies played in the old wrestub." THE STAGE IN DALLAS, TEXAS.

Week of Oct. 20, Queen Theatre, Wilmington, N. C. IN THE FIELD OF SPORT. BY HAROLD C. McGATH. WHERE IS BILLY McCLAIN? Eastwhile Sport Promoter of Bruxelles, of Paris, of America—Some things of His Comprehensive Career. is due credit for doing the best thing he had ever attempted in Indianaapolis. He followed up his first success with other matches, but in a short while they grew wearisome. He cleaned up some little money, but nothing like he was spending. (By Billy Lewis.) too long since some sport writer had it aways the Negro as a sport was passing away. Perhaps man is too old not to switen when we fail to have representatives in everything that's doing. Of course, savage is mind the ideas, and not the not, but the saying that we never beel of the present as we do of the past. That is to say we think of those of the past as the ideals, and the proses as the designs, and the proses as it may be, but it is a fact that the good old haycocky days of the Negro spart are not repeating themselves. The Negro stare is not repeating, but the proses sports, of the ringside, of the tort, have gone way back and sat down. Take the jockeys for instance. O course in those automobile times, but before they were out of the game. Who has reduced Murphy, Barnes, Hicks, Simms, Quentin? Our own Henry Gibbs, of this country, might have eight ones no more seemingly. It now appears that the palpitable high tide is on an everlasting ebb. One by one the men are on the shore, and one by one they are on far as sitting successors are observed. Peter Jackson, George Dixon, apparently, are not imminently implicated. The men may be inoculated and may well be mourned as dead. The great sums of money, fortunes made in the past, will not be discussed here. Why this is not will be discussed here. Wiley McClain, the meteoric sport promoter, lashed a moment, then fell into the Syrian city. He shouted, "I'm going to light it." He instructed a quiet school of boxing in Bruxelles, as he loved so much to write it, when Johnson flared at the enemy's demands. He went to a hotel near way to London to meet Jack Johnson. McClain saw things. He saw the possibility of pitting the champion heavyweight of America against the champion boxer who was just past the card. Things took on a rostrate face. He was a regular colored Mulberry Sellers. There were millions of people in the city, but if he could have brought those fistic gladiators together, McVey and Johnson, it would have been the greatest thing done together. McVey and Johnson, it would have been the greatest thing done together. The pity of it is that billy had the articles of agreement drawn up, and as he said, by three of the best lawyers in London, he had to fight him to Indianapolis, where he exhibited it to newspaper men and sporting men as proof of his near greatness. Jack failed to attach his John Hancock, and of course, he was a But the nearness to the great American champion but something else is better. He went to Paris, where, under the guidance of the *e* well-known Hugh McIntosh, the Australian sport promoter, he dickered up a new team in that country. This was the beginning of the true rise of Billy in sporting dress. His little studio studio in Bruxelles that he had it saved him a go. The story of his rise, decline and fall is not so lions' mane of home, but full of interest just the same. This is not the first time that I have seen him in a general way. He had the idea of your journey, a journey which every man could not take. So he kept us well posted, commenting on the historic places on route, as many as five times, in his bearings in touching on various subjects, but through it all, we not an idea of what he saw and did when making his way to Australia. The arrival of McVey, and Billy as his manager, set Australia on end. Never before had he seen a turbine. That country is a very sport center, and the newcomers were herded as representatives of the very acme The digits drew immensely. Thousands of dollars came to McVey and McClain as their part. Billy says that they grew tired of the situation. They tied it up in a sheet, threw it under the bed and went to sleep. It was his way of telling that they cleaned up a bunch of money. McVey won fight after fight, meaning that the better end of the money came to the pair. Billy was so prosperous that he went to a country office, asking that we look out for a nice country home near this city, as he meant to settle down as a retired man. He had all so much right but as much as he thought he had, he could only calculate so far, and after that money ceased having value—he had all so much money and proposition, which to invest his funds, thinking he was amply able, he talked money like a man of Wall ```markdown ``` Billy was human; he wished to come home to show the folks what manner of man he was. We all do. And many of us so bent, if not broke, in sticking around just as he did. He left Australia. He came to America, made a break for Mexico to see the Johnson-Flynn fight, after a minimum with the customs officials at San Francisco about some diamonds. Billy says he landed his way out of the room, but not as he did out of Australia where, now, he was the leave, he had to right to leave at the time he did leave. Billy says he bluffed them. But he downright facts in the matter seem to be that they didn't care if he never came back. We were inclined at first to doubt the marketing use of which he told, but after studying one subject for some days and also some nights, I concluded that he did it. I laughed himself right out of trouble, but as some of the patrons did at the聂子村. After coming, I�usted the e-canned is in mind about retiring.

SAN FRANCISCO.—Ralph Rose, holder of the Olympic and world's records for shotputting, died here October 16, of typhoid fever after a brief illness. For eight years Rose was a champion weight man in amateur athletics. His prowess won him a place on the first American Olympic team that went to Athens in 1906, and he was successively manager of the American at London in 1908 and Stockholm in 1912, always bringing home first place, until last year, when he was beaten by McDonald (American) with a put eight inches short of Rose's own world's record of fifty-one feet flat for the sixteen-pound shot, made at Traverse Island, New York in 1909. The number of the six-points with the sixteen-pound shot right-hand putting Rose also held all American records with the eight-pound, twelve-pound, eight-pound, twenty-one pound and twenty-pound weights, and the world's record with the sixteen-pound shot for right and left hand combined.

BOSTON — "Gunboat" the heavyweight and "White hope," so called, knocked out Tony Ross, of New Castle, Pa. in the tenth round of what was intended to be a two-round bout before the Atlantic. Ross did most of the leading in the early stages of the contest. At the opening of the tenth Smith began to show his popper ability, and after a minute and count Ross was on the mat and took the count. THAT TERPIBLE TANGO BREAKS INTO FOOTBALL. CHICAGO — Tanko football has arrived at the University of Chicago. The new pastime as staged at the practice session of the university, the extravagations of the modern basketball with the fiercer labors of the谴ridion and is designed to fit the midway candidates for tripping the light fantastic toe through the court. Lovely footwork is the basis of Coach Staggs Argentina invention. As in the most recent season, the performers with the nimble extremities and the limberest joints win the cake. Wind, nerve and daring are also required for the spar. The players not patent the pastime with the polished floor in view, but the maroon students, many of whom are problematic in the latest fish walk and reverse dribal found with lov it was well adapted to furthering their social advance. The director's orders to join, slide, pivot, block and charge were obeyed without a murmur. RITCHIE TELLS WHY HE HAS RAISED WEIGHT. NEW YORK—Wille Ritchie, lightweight champion of the world, who made his first appearance in this city at Madison, round eight with Leach Cross, is the first holder of the title since the late Joe Gans was champion to raise the weight limit, why he is not making matches at 133 ringside. He discussed the matter thus: "I have considered 123 pounds ringside the highlight of my career, but there is no rule. American or English, under which championship contests are held, fix these rules." Jack McAuliffe, the first American who held the title, defended himself at 135, 137 and even 40 at Madison. McAuliffe, lost the title on a decision to Frank Erne, at 135, weighing four or five pounds beore the hour, Volastra played the same game as Erne, winning him by him at the 133 limit. But since I've become champion I have a right to dictate the rules, in 135 in order to let challengers who cannot make 133 have a crack at the title." SIGNIFICANCE OF SPORT. We are at the turn of the season—the turn where the baseball season ends and the football season begins. The one is England in the great ball game, cricket, no professionalists are allowed. But in their football games professional's play is so much more difficult to devote themselves strenuously to outdoor games, which spur the ambition of boys to athletic development. This makes the sound body which contributes to the sound of America has produced a line of exponents who lead the world. Our sweeping victories in the international Olympic sports have made the dream of a dream almost elicited. Great Britain, which is now to raise $500,000 with which to train her athletes in the American way, grew great. Our athletes and then our athletes. We have rarely needed them out. How we shall then are at the hands of the Germans who are run and coming all along the line" re In any case our great development in all sorts of games that call for bodily strength and skill in our national life. We have been jeered at by the world as a materialistic people bound down to the pursuit of the ambition dollar. In later years we have been criticized for that we are the most idealistic people in the world. And in these games of skill and strength they have found us well and suited to the situations we have been criticised as playing to win and not playing for the sport of the game. That would sound better in the future, but we have been out from the defeated. In any sense, the greater point is that we are developing a race of splendid people from the casualist to the systematic work of the Y. M. C. A. THE FREEMAN. AN ILLUSTRATED COLORED NEWSPAPER In every town and city and of athletic clubs everywhere. We have come fairly to realize that good work in the world, which we have done by weak-bodied men. It testifies to the wise development of the race; shows that we are advancing. Our best men in the field in any sport, we believe, could imitate the best that ancient Greece ever produced. There is a sort of measure. The average well developed Englishman or American soldier is the armor in London Tower, which once afforded room for men of "the days of old, when knights were bold." They were to an extent the same as the men have developed a superior race. And this runs to morals also. The revelations of vice and crime cause some Jeremias to go to the country, but this is simply proof that they have mistaken the purging work which is bringing to light the hidden places as never before. The Indianapolis News. YOUNG SAYLOR CLAIMS ENGLISH CHAMPIONSHIP Knocks Out Title Holder and Claim of Foul Ball Offer to Go On Stage WINNIPEG.—Milburn Saylor, of Indianapolis, is today lightweight champion of England, and this despite the fact that he has never set foot upon the shores of Great Britain. He knocked out Freddie Welsh, in the ninth round, of a scheduled twelve round bout here. October, the Welsh set up a claim of foul but the reflection was allowed stating that the knockout punch, a right hook to the stomach, was a clearly fair. Saylor was accorded a tremendous ovation as he left the ring while Welsh was hissed for claiming a foul. The crowd of four thousand that witnessed the bout were all Welsh backers when the fight began but chances of Saylor during the fight as the Indiana boy gradually beat the England champion down. The Hoosier star scored a clean knock down as early as the sixth round, his left hook found Welsh's jaw and the Englishman flomed. He got up quickly but he continually covred and retreated after that. The end was not unexpected, as Welsh was clearly in distress in the eighth round. He rushed to a clinch as Savior hooked his left to his stomach. Fighting out of the clinch, Savior overcut with his right and Welsh went down for good. Rav Bronson, Savor's manager, said that he would immediately begin his work in White Ribbon for the world's lightweight title Savor is wanted for a return but been offered a two-year deal has been offered a theatrical engagement and may take us up for a few weeks. Another Version of Fight. WINNIPEG—treasure Wets, English highwright, campon, was awarded the decision over amour Saylor, or Indianism, in the twelve-round bout October 20, after he and been knocked out by a blow which the referee declared for him, at the opening of the ninth round against hitting low, but continued his tactics, and finally sent him down with a stir flown laundered in the groin. Up to the ninth round Welsh outboxed his opponent, and his cover ring general, The latter, however, snowed flashes of clever work with his gloves, but blows the latter, however, snowed wild of tear mark. Welsh brought blood to the nose and mouth of his opponent during the early rounds, and attitudes appeared to strike him almost at. When the ninth round drew near the Welsh grenaded and sank to the floor, after a blow that looked low from the ringside. After a heated discussion, durably, the referee Foev stated that the blow was foul and gave Welsh the decision. The club doctor, after examining Welsh, said Gives Welsh Decision. WINNIPEG, Manitoba — reade Welsh, the English lightweight champion, was shot in the head by a shot sustained twelveound hour at Milburn Saylor of Indianapolis October 20. The rattere claimed the knockout was due to a blow. The blow was a stiff one and landed in the groin and sent the English fighter to the floor for the count. Welsh was given the chance to win, but Saylor was badly beaten in every round from the first up, when he deliberately shot the ball. Saylor tried to stop the contest at that point, but Welsh waved him aside and tore after Saylor. In the ninth Saylor, staggering from left to right, left to left with terrific force into Welsh's groin. Welsh sank to the floor, writting with palm. Foley then awarded the contest to Welsh Not Injured. Backers of Welsh declared he was not seriously injured by the foul blow struck by Welsh players in the ground and landed a blow in the groin which put Welsh down for the count. The referee ruled that the blow was a foul, and the players were awarded a violation. Supporters of Young Sayer are disaffed with referee Foley's decision and claim that a clean blow knocked out his opponent. The decision on a foul, a heated discussion took place, with both sides claiming the match. Although Welsh clearly outboxed his opponent the match was fairly inter- ALL-PROFESSIONALS DOWN A. B. C.

Spectra College's Dallas high school was begun in a four-room building, in the year 1880, with Prof. J. W. Ray as its first principal. He moved to the school and after the first year secured a large attendance. He turned out three graduates during the five years he was with Prof. Ray was succeeded by Prof. W. Mangella, who moved the signee to the school. Prof. Mangella was assisted by Miss Anna Alexander. He hurried out three graduates and he was principal. Prof. Mangella increased the attendance from forty-seven to fifty. Prof. Manzella was succeeded by Prof. H. L. Thompson, who added four more rooms to the high school building, also two teachers. Prof. Thompson succeeded Prof. Harlie in the second eleventh to the twelfth grade. During Prof. Thompson's eight years as principal the attendance was increased from forty-seven to ninety-seven. Prof. Thompson was succeeded by Prof. N. W. Harliee, who did more for the school than any of the predecessors or teachers. Prof. Harliee was a high school into the following departments: Latin, German, English history, mathematics and science, having the largest library in the state of Texas. He called to his aid such instructors as Mrs. J. C. Frazier, of Howard University. Prof. H. Polk, of Detroit. Prof. F. J. Work, of Fisk University. Prof. Harliee organized the manual training classes in the state of Texas for colored people at that time, and now the largest and best equipped in the state. He seated in the second eleventh in Atlanta University and Miss Florence Caviel a s head of these departments. The third year of his mission he leased the Miss Sibra, Miss Susan, Miss W. A. Bossow, supervisor of music and drawing. He secured night school for five public after labor schools. He attended eight eight-way building for the school after getting an office with two telephones, and a laboratory not equalled in Texas, and the attendance and with about two hundred graduates he still worked faithfully, beaded by Prof. F. J. Williams, who was principal for one year. He encouraged night school and did much to increase the attendance. He profited from the success. Prof. Williams was succeeded by Prof. W. O. Bundy, of Howard. The school stands as the best in the state, and its graduates are the best. One can secure all the modern conveniences that are to be found in Texas. Its graduates are the best. He found that the department is needed for its good work for its graduates, upon entering college, are exempted from taking chemistry, most of the time.

These two men, having combined their scientific knowledge, have put upon the marvelous work of their preparation is compounded under the most sanitary conditions and put up in collapsible tubes of two different sizes. Never before has there been a foot remedy compounded in the form of a cream. Not only is it novel in its preparation, but it is also the most useful as the manufacturers represent that its success is only a question of time. The output is daily growing larger and larger. The patients are in the same states. Unasked and unsought testimonials are daily coming in, telling how delighted the patients are with this wonderful preparation.

R. is now with the Seminole city. He is good in this service.....Send your children to school. Don't deprive them of education. Give them an education. Several children in school. Mr. R. M. Chowning, the candidate for mayor of the city of Fulton, solets the vote of the colored people, on behalf of the discriminator, as was rumored among the people, so stands for justice to all, regardless of color, so far as the administration of laws is concerned, and in casting your vote for a ballot the wrong way. His wide experience in business and as ex-mayor, renders it highly efficient for this office, and progress is the key to mean the dawn of a new era in Fulton. Mr. Clarence Bransford, the candidate for aidman in the East ward of the city of New York, will be colored vote on November 4. Mr. Bransford is a firm friend of the Negro and has been a member of the Negro vote not see him defeated November 4, so far as our vote can help. Mr. Bailey Hudson, candidate for sheriff of Fulton, will be colored vote on November 4. Mr. Hudson is a worthy young man and is competent in every respect for the duties incumbent upon him. He sheriff and as chief of police of the city of Fulton for the past four years. He lives and renders fair and impartial color, and this fact is substantiated by his past four years of service in the above named office. He deserves every Negro color, and this fact is substantiated by all the colored votes of Fulton will support the three candidates mentioned in the previous section for the museums the elevation and help to our people as they all stand for justice and to allow every man an opportunity to participate in the discussion under the laws regardless of color. I hope we will go to the polls and vote for the museums among the highest types of the prejudice of parityism and look at the competency of the men for office the three men among the highest types of the prejudice of parityism should support them unanimously on November 4. . . The writer took this designation after personal interview with each, and they stand for what has been said of ST. LOUIS, MO. Riot of Fun-Making at Booker Washington Theater. (By Walter S. Fearance.) Special to The Freeman. Act I—it is said that trouble never comes unless it pours. Well Mitchell Lewis who opened the fun at the Booker Washington this week certainly believes it. First he comes to St. Louis and sends zero weather and next he finds that some kind actor has stood in the wings of some vaudeville house somewhere and has copped his act, but nevertheless, on account of these handicaps, he practically changes his act on the spur of the moment and makes good before the usual packed house on Monday night. He is a bit slim but there is a good comical joker, singer and dancer combined into one that made last night's house roar with laughter. He signs "One Lost Chirg," that goes well and does an eccentric dance that takes the house. He puts over some jokes and closes with a buck and wing dance worth while Act 2—Anthony and Nickerson were the next on the bill and they were one scream. Anthony is an old man, St. Paul's School is old, but he produced vaudeville twins in the colored houses in this city. He received a befitting welcome as audience preserves for the new show. A vehicle that caused the audience to laugh at every turn of the wheel. The act "going big, followed by some of the hottest stories of bravery that ever crossed the footlights. Nickerson sings to this little girl in a faint hand. Anthony followed this with a parody on "All Night Long," that was a scream. The act closed with the duo singing "The Blue Ridge Mountains" as to be healed time and time again. Act 3—Miss Annie St. Claire, the bronzed warbler, another St. Louis favorite, in a repertoire of ragtime and popular songs appeared and lived up to her fast record. Although being a bit hoarse from the severe weather yet she was able to put her songs over in that well known St. Claire manner and made a hit with the audience. She is beautifully costumed and seldom have I seen a colored actress with a more beautiful wardrobe. She is featuring "Teasing Brown" written by Johnnie Spikes and has the exclusive rights to this song. She is putting it over in such a manner that the audience is constantly clamoring for more. She sings other songs with like results and puts over a bit of farte-melodrama that is a scream. If last night is a criterion of what "Teasing Brown" is then the box office will need a guard to keep them in line. Act 4—Rugh and Pugh, novelty dancers, sinners and talkers, came on and preceded them. They are among the best performers on the D. O. K. time and if they had it all the move one would have preceded them with "Teach Me That Beautiful Love," followed by some eccentric dance steps to be converted the audience in laughter. This was followed by a line of talk that took well. "I Don't Want to," by Miss Dawn, converted to "Down" and some savory stories by Pugh took well. This was followed by the hit of the evening the Tango as cancero for a heavyweight Miss Pugh is some dancer. This closed the bill of what I will shown at this house of good acts.
