special to OO III. November 12.—Mr. A. B. Duncan, of Seattle, Wash., and Mr. Nell Johnson, of New York City, were in the city this week and paid a visit to Mr. Harry Russell, with Mr. James Lewis, are a route to the coast for the winter. Monday evening the distinguished guests were driven to the Pekin Theater in M. Russell Park, where the right and enjoyed the play immensely. After the show they were driven to the Elmwood Cafe and entertained by the famous Elmwood orchestra.
Ten-Course Dinner Served.
Mr. Russell, who is one of the best consoisseurs on serving dinners, arranged a ten-course dinner. The table was set in the dining room, with two large tables and the orchestra. Two very polite and courteous waiters were pressed into service. Those at the table were: Mr. B. Bowman, New York City; Mr. A. B. Duncan, New York City; Mr. A. Nobile蔡希, Harry Russell, and Twenty others were present. Champagne flowed freely. Immediately after the dinner was oratory. All during the service the gentleman was introduced, and the international fans was played as the guests marched into the dining room, and Mr. Olive Powers, that phenomena term, was enveloped by singing "Oh, What a Time." All joined in the chorus, and the name, a beautiful dancer and singer, and the one of the best in Chicago, very charmingly entertained, as did Miss Octavia Walker, a delightful soubrette. Mr. Bowman and the gentlemen began to smoke and orate. It was surprising to hear Mr. Bowman, formerly of the best, Mr. Bowman, being an old friend of the visitors, delivered the welcoming speech. He said, "Gentlemen, I welcome you to the dining room. We have given us a Lincoln, and around his hallowed name all others have circled. Chicago known as the fine city, we have given us a Lincoln, and around the world and its colored citizens are the best in the world. We own beautiful homes, operate numerous business places, have our own banks, lawyers, and own hundreds of thousands of dollars' worth of property. On behalf of our friends offer the keys of the city. You are admitted everywhere except the Bridewell. You may look at our ladies, but you may not see them. You welcome and may you come again."
Mr. Duncan responded in a happy vein, among other things, to the great interest he highly entertained at the famous Elmwood, the most famous place in the city, alluded to the kindness extended him, and said that if any of those present ever came to his city the latch string would
Mr. Russell Speaks.
Mr. Russell, who used to be a modest speaker, but is now a regular after-dinner orator, said: "I love to be loyal and kind, and I am always sure to entertain them. My place is always on the true blue men of my race. Gratitude is the fairest flower that I can offer to anyone that causes me to have this wine flow as freely as the waters of the Luzon for the pleasure and happiness of my distinctions and happiness." Mr. Neil Johnson, of New York, responded to the toast of the Empire State, and paid a glowing tribute to Mr. Russell. Mr. Russell, New York he said, was still the leader in America, and would be so as long as it sits by the Atlantic ocean. Mr. James, who was a former New Yorker and said that when he returned he would be ready to have enough money to erect a skyscraper on the South Side. The Elmwood has become the only place in Chicago where first-class banquet
Harry Gilliam an Artist.
When a young man is really an artist at his work, credit and praise should be given to him. He is the most important character of some little prejudices born of a minion. Mr. Gilliam was selected last week to the trappings for Miss Aida Overton Wall. He was the most successful young man for the manner in which he performed his work. Mr. Vodery, the musical director of the school, came away praising the young man for his serious and too retarded and uncertain. This untruthful man was too much critical to be offered. For us hope it was a error of the writer, for it was not in his best interest. He was such a Pad Gilliam's ability, just drop in the Elite and bear him on the drums, bellow, xylophone. At the age of 400 he was also a Pad Slaughter. Canadian Judeo-Pope Mme Moore's Dance Hall, Russell and Dago's buffet. August 12 he opened up at the Elite and opened up such a record, splendid attalments, good habits and a progressive musician, the criticism made was unwarranted and untrue.

writers of the country, each of whom has special knowledge of the facts involved in the race. The country can Race Problem." The country is in need of knowing more about the publica- tion issued by the Neal Neal Company, issued by the Neal Neal president of which is a Southern man, who yet entertains the public. The Neal Neal intellect and possibilities of the American Negro in literature. Mr. Walter Neal is the president of this company, and is the author of the book Negro in country in affording the medium through which some of the ables white and Negro writers may discuss the most trying and difficult problems.
Chicago People Interested.
While the people in Chicago are interested in the entire series, we have space for Negro contributors. The first of these appeared in the Neal's Monthly for October, from the great and versatile pen of the late William Neal, "Our Jungle Man." This contribution is perhaps one of the most sociological works in the field of African Professor's pen. Most of his articles heretofore read by the writer have been mainly controversial and historical. But the article the professor analyzed was great science, and will the dominant phases of Negro mind and nature, and in this respect it is an illuminating book in the history of American Negro life and character.
Major Lynch to Write.
The writer is informed that the next article in the series will be from one of Chicago's most prominent citizens. In the person of Major John R. Lynch, and no doubt will be another distinctive contribution to the subject from an entirely different point of view. Much importance is attached to what Major Lynch will say, not only from the fact that he has been eminent in American public life for more than a quarter of a century, during which he was one of the really few real and great Negro leaders from the South. The fact that the major is now devoting his talents to the field of literature will give some literary significance to what he has to say as well as to the great flood of light which his ripe experience will enable him to throw upon the Negro question. His article will excite increased interest from the further fact that about the same time of the appearance of this article the Neal Publishing Company will issue from his pen a new book on one of the most interesting and strkling eras in the last half century of American history, under the simple title "Facts of Reconstruction," illuminated by his personal reminiscences of forty years and with important interviews with the most distinguished leaders of his day.
Chicago News Speaks
A few days ago the staid old Tribune arose from its lethargy and made a cry in wilderness for air and just treatment. The Tribune All Chicago was surprised, for it has been its policy to be silent upon the Negro with crime and meanness toward the "brother." Since Judge Kavanaugh spoke at the Irish Fellowship Club in favor of the Negro to help him earn a livelihood, there has been a decided change for the better.
The Chicago Daily News speaks right out in church.
In 1968, the县城里于 bright young Negro boys and girls to rise on their merits are seriously limited in Chicago. The injustice of this situation is dwelt upon by Mrs. Louise DerKoven Bowen, president of the American Church, who, in the course of his life, has been the current issue of the Survey. Her conclusions are drawn largely from her own experience and from experiences of investigators of the association of which she has been a member of the Association of Black-Hombicans.
"The coldness of many employers toward young Negroes helps to explain why so few of the latter strive for the education and training which they then offer to the young. It is not the work that there are many cases on the records of her association which show the tendency of employers to use Negroes only for mental positions."
"The coldness of many employers toward young Negroes helps to explain why so few of the latter strive for the education and training which they then offer to the young."
"High school was refused from a technical position in the U.S. in 1968, because Neroos are not wanted here. A large commercial house refused to employ another colored youth, a graduate of a business college under similar conditions. Many students, who are under the same state of the U.S. B.N.B., have been employed there, whether they have been educated or not."
"If young colored people become disheartened and discouraged under such circumstances, it is not surprising. The fact that many young black and other individuals that merit shall have due recognition in the broad field of employment, regardless of race and color. Injustice commonly breeds revolt against existing conditions and thus is a broad delinquency and crime."

WHAT I AM TRYING TO DO.
By Dr. Booker T. Washington, in the "World's Work Magazine, New York City, November, 1913—Explains the Tuskegee Idea—Writes of Racial Relationships in the South.
Dr. Booker T. Washington, principal of the Tuskegee Institute, writes a special article, "What I am Trying to Do." Work, New York City, a series of twelve articles under this title have been published in the World's Work during the World's Work contributors to the series so far have represented every phase of business and educational life—captains of information, teachers of knowledge, other in every field of activity. The World's Work is quite the most representative business magazine published in the United States, and progress from one end of the earth to the other.
In particular article, here referred to, Dr. Washington summarizes his life work at Tuskegee Institute, explaining in detail just what he has been trying to accomplish in the progress of the Negro people in the United States. The whole scheme of what Dr. Washington is exemplified and explained so that one can get a pretty good idea of the work being accomplished through Tuskegee. With particular reference to the matter of racial relationships in the South, Dr. Washington, in the article that I have tried to do has been to bring the white people in the southern states and throughout the country to a better understanding and practical attitude toward the Negro in his efforts to go forward and make progress. I am seeking to do this not only in the interest of the Negro but also in the interest of white race.
“There are in the southern states nine million Nectroes. There are three million Nectro children of school age. Fifty-three per cent of the total population is of school age. Many of these Negro children, particularly in the country districts, are in school only from three to four months of the year. I am trying to get the white people to see the school being opened, and the point of view and as a matter of justice and fair play these conditions must be changed. I am trying to get the white people to see that sending ignorant Nectroos to jails and just as they call it, and the chain among, hanging and tyinching them does not civilize them, but on the contrary, though it brutalizes the Negro, it at the same time blunts and dulls the conscience of the white people. I am not in the same time blunts and dulls the conscience of the white people, but to let the Nectro remain ignorant, with nothing between him and the temptation to fill his body with whisky and cocaine and to expect him, in his ignorance, to be a black man. I am not in the same time able to exercise that degree of self-control which shall enable him to keep it.
“Still another thing that I am trying to get the people of the whole country to do, and to do, and to do, in the Nectro should be considered not as a matter of charity, but as a matter of business, that, like any other business, should be thoroughly studied, organized and systematized, and that the Nectro school system is not be the same as the Nectro school states.”
"I am trying to get the white people to realize that we need to invest inishment of crimes, no color line should be drawn in the preparation for life, in the kind of education, in other ways. I am trying to get the white people to see that in hundreds of counties in the city it is costing more to punish colored people than to educate them. I am trying to get all to educate them. I am trying to invite them and encourage the stronger race to act unjustly toward the weak, and that so long as this condition remains, I will not hurt a fearful handcap in the battle of life."

which Grows Hair in Three
by Keeps the Hair Straight
Enn that the alarming increase of baldness
covers 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 become 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, if 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 its favor, than people who have tried almost every known thing, for promoting hair growth, such as tonics 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.
Every known hair trouble will succumb to it or hair diseases, such as dandruff, fallen completely cured with two or three.
It is undoubtedly unexcelled. It is not hair soft and glossy, with a tendency to it has no equal. Many of those who have thing results.

Manager Lowe Removed for Alleged
Drunkenness Editor Re-
ceived for Text on Him.
(Special from Quaker City News Bureau, Box 530.)
PHILADELPHIA. Pa. Nov. 5.—There was a great shake-up in the affairs of the African Methodist Church in this city in 1970, when the church opened. The Publication Board, of which Bishop Evans Tyrese is president, met on the offices of editor of the Christian Record and manager of the Book Concern, held, respectively, by Dr. R. W. Wright, the executive director of the dramatic climax of the Wright-Lowe controversy, which began from the day Dr. Lowe assumed the office of manager and continued until both parties were discharged.
Wright Charges Lowe.
The immediate cause of the board meeting was an editorial in the Christian Recorder of October 9, in which Editor Wright charged Manager Lowe with drunkenness, stating: "I can only account for Lowe's action on the theory that he was in one of his drunken debauches such as has disgraced the Book Concern since he has been manager, for it is common talk that he has been picked up off of the street and lodged in the police station for drunkenness."
At the beginning of the meeting Manager Lowe charged Editor Wright with defaming his character, and gave notice that he would call him to trial before the stewards of Mt. Pisgah's A. M. E. Church, according to the discipline.
Dr. Wright said he was ready to prove his charge, and produced an affidavit from Delancy, near Third street, as follows: "March 6, 1913, Jacob Lowe, 1221 Pine street, age 49; married; black; an attorney at Front and Delancy streets; condition when arrested, drunk; time of entry, 11 a. m." Dr. Lowe insisted that he was arrested for torture and fell unconscious at the street. He said he did not remember anything until he came to in the police station. He said he was not drunk and had not been tortured. He also arrevered that he had had a similar attack of vertigo in Vickersburg, Miss, in 1880—consideration of the board, asking that they take his word that it was vertigere rather than that of Editor Wright's affidavit from the police records that it was drunken.
Wright Corners Sinclair.
Why, then, if you had vertigo did they take you to the police station and keep you continued easter, and you had a break? Is that not a change procedure? Dr. Wright asked. Then Dr. W. A. Sinclair, who is a member of the board, would not have been fully a member of the attorney, said, "I can answer that." Meantime Dr. Lowe replied, "I do not know what they did with me, as was for me." I did not know, "They did take him to the hospital," and I told me to the Pennsylvania Hospital, asking, "I will be here." I was asked what is the trouble with him, and I was told that he had an attack of vertigo, and that he was resting in the room. "What I had helped," he felt and asked. Sinclair: "Are you sure they told you vertigo?" Sinclair said, "Yes, they told me vertigo that I strained my dark right, directing from his marks to the chairman and pulling from his papers a letter from the Pennsylvania Hospital, and I would not be in the hospital, but I thought to the Pennsylvania Hospital at 10:20 a. m., March 6, 1913. His complaint was alcoholism. Said Wright, "This is the signed statement of theक कर्माण." I said, "This is the signed statement of Dr. Lowe, was taken there March 6," alcoholism—i.e., he was drunk; that he was there at 10:20 a. m., Couple this with his arrival at 11:00 a. m., and I would not have been at 11:00 a. m., and I would not have been the police would not even let him see Lowe."
This Sinclair did not deny, and Lowe practically admitted, saving that Wright an appeal to the board for sympathy, telling of his long years of service. He boarded the board when executive session of the board were guests of Dr. Lowe at dinner, and Sinclair resided, and some suspect that some clever political work was done here.
Surprising Verdict.
At 4 o'clock the board reconvened, and at 8:30, after two hours deliberation, the board decided to appoint Bishop Tyree stated that they had decided to declare both offices vacant. The two men made statements. It is said that the board satisfied with the verdict, as he did satisfaction with the verdict, as he did satisfaction with the verdict, as he did no charge was brought against him. The verdict, especially that relating to Editor Wright, created a genuine sense of responsibility expected. Many of the local ministers were very strong in their denunciation of what they called the unfair restraint accorded Edith.
The reason for dismissing a manager's law is alleged drunkenness. The reason is that the law is too difficult to be recognized when the manager was drunk. Our reporter was not able to interview the manager, but did see Editor Wright's case that the thought of the court's stated that he thought it was unfair, said he. "It is unfortunately true that Dr. Lowe and I have not been able to get back to the court and get back to the court as aínna I feel crieved for two things only: First, that I was given no opportunity to make a defense. It seems that after Dr. Lowe and I have been a family being an old man and I a young one, sympathy turned to him. They could not cooperate him, but they would punish me for a time. The court's case was as fast as it was lynched. The second thing I feel grieved over is that I should be put out, an office in the Christian Church, and a man who is a man who is a man who is a man who is a man of $28 to 135, for the reason that I took a stand against drunkenness in the church. I committed no crime except as he was used to the law to make a case and my exposure was so complete he could not be whitewashed. I feel sorry for the bishop who could be a party to such a man who is a man who is a man of a chastity breach of Christian ethics. But I feel pleased also at two things. First, that the court against drunkenness in high places of the church was not a question of the words of high-minded ministers everywhere in their fight for better morals, and he is in this case a decision of the board in that year is not the case of the church. I shall appeal, not to the civil courts, but to the regular session of the school. The case that he was righted the church is all bosch. When did J. L. Lowe become the church's "attache" name. I named him the man. I did the role for good the church and not to harm it."
Dr. J. L. Lowe came here from Arkansas and attended the General Conference in Kansas City, Mo. May, 1912, as business manager of the firm succeeding Dr. R. R. Wright, who declined election as manager and was elected at the same time editor of the Christi- A. M. E. Church and the oldest Nesro periodical in existence. The two men are temperamentally different and have not met in Chicago, the university of Chicago, the University of Pennsylvania, and later received the Ph. D. degree from the University of Pennsylvania. The woods are full of applicants for the position, are considered two the best in the church, and are Arnie. J. L. W. Watkins and M. W. Thornton, who are mentioned as possible business manager.

It may not be through the wine bottle.

Or yet through the foaming beer.
It may not have been the deck of cards,

Not one can pose as a model
Not one, in a woman or man,
For there is the one of question?
Just there is one if you can,
We may have been just in transaction
Of trades with our fellowmen
Just by word or letters they pen,
We may have friends in large numbers,
Men who will stick to the end,
If we want to be a kind of ladies,
Which often did our hearts rend.
What if we did err, my brother;
What if the wrongs us make;
We will not lose faith in each other,
Let us do kfor the good things once
What if faults oftimes overtake us,
We will not lose faith in each dark,
We often will hear lies sweet music.
If we just have patience to hark,
For this earth is full of sweet sunshine
Then let us up weave the heart;
Then let us up weave the heart;
Then let us look for the sunbeams
And flowers of earth that are fair,
Which shed for us their brightest
They are around us everywhere.

Who will develop as the leader of the Negro Democracy in this city? is the question.
The New York Negro Exhibition has been pronounced a big success. Rather pleasing information.
The greater and better Christmas issue of The Freeman. Look out for it. Get in it. Write in for information.
The 10,000 names written protesting the segregation of colored employees in the departments at Washington ought to prove a weighty argument.
Mayor Shank has concluded to do a little weeding out. We can't quite see the necessity at this time. He may have as well have stuck to his crew until the drop came. His eleventh-hour acts do not say much for economy.
Next month is Christmas, the most alarming month of the year. The best of us sit up and take notice at its announcement. We, the ordinary people, are never quite prepared for it. Some think of abolishing the day. It is too distinguished to give up, with all of our unpreparedness.
A bloodless war, Heaven be praised! The street car strike gave away to peace 'neath the angry frowns of city and State authorities. The differences between the men and the company will be submitted to a board of arbitration. The company, at first, was inclined to oppose arbitration, but better counsel prevailed, as it should have done. Mr. Clawson put it right when he said that the citizens, the company and the men were interested. Reading between the lines, the thought is gathered that the street car company is more than a private concern, and as such the citizens have something to say. At any rate, a peaceful solution is promised, and over the prospects of which everybody seems happy.
Very much has been seen in print concerning the Negro Year Book of 1912.
"The author, Monroe N. Work, who has charge of records and research at the Tuskegee Normal and Industrial Institute, has enlarged, revised, indexed and brought all the facts about the Negro in America down to date.
"Every name, fact or event which any one interested in the progress of the race needs to know, will almost certainly be recorded or referred to in this book. A new and complete index makes all these facts, which were formerly sometimes lost sight of under chapter headings, easily accessible. An enlarged and carefully classified list of articles and publications on the Negro furnishes the reader with references to any phase of Negro life or the Negro problem.
"If there is anything about the Negro which you want to know and do not find recorded in this book, write to the editor, inclosing a stamped envelope, and he will either tell you what it is or indicate where the information may be found."
THANKSGIVING DAY PROCLAMA-
TION.
Thanksgiving Day has been proclaimed by President Wilson, who insists that we have very much to be thankful for. He says among other things that "The nation has been prosperous—not only, but has proved its capacity to take calm counsel amidst the rapid movements of affairs and deal with its own life in a spirit of candor, righteousness and comity. We have seen the practical completion of a great work at the 5thmus of Panama, which not only exemplifies the nation's abundant resources to accommodate its growing population, guished skill and capacity of its public servants, but also promises the beginning of a new age, of new contacts, new neighborhoods, new sympathies, new bonds, and new achievements of co-operation and peace."
Good! And happily put. Yet the Negroes doubtless feel that their millions are worthy of notice even in such a general notice to the country as a Thanksgiving Day proclamation. If Mr. Wilson could conscientiously have said that our people regardless of race are enjoying the greatest measure of justice possible consistent with the age, that finely phrased utterance would mean more to our millions than it does mean.
THE 10,000 SIGNATURES
REACH THE PRESIDENT
The petition of 10,000 signatures signatures protest the segregation of Negroes in various departments at Washington has finally been presented to President Wilson. The delegation bearing the petition was introduced to him by Congressman Thatcher of Massachusetts. Mr. Wilson took the matter under advisement. The delegation quoted a pre-election letter written by the President, which was as follows: "It is my earnest wish to see justice done them in every matter, and not mere grudging justice, but justice executed with liberality and cordial good feeling. Every principle of our Constitution commends this, and our
sympathies should also make it easy." We appreciate the very perplexing position in which Mr. Wilson finds himself, thinking, of course, that he is not a party to the movement. Really we ought to know from which source the order came that resulted in the screening off of colored employees and the other signs of discrimination. Secretary McAdoo is charged with the offense. But it is not reasonableness to exercise so much authority. Star chamber politics is not popular in our government, especially when it gets motion vicious legislation. Are the Democrats in Washington a unit on this movement? Is it a policy of the administration? If so, the President will find it very difficult to render that "justice with liberality and cordial good feeling" that he spoke of.
It is a difficult thing to render justice with liberality and cordial good feeling if Mr. Wilson wishes to keep in the segregation sentiment, but not difficult if he cares to swing clear of it, taking his chances. We know what anti-Negro sentiment means. Presidents cannot curb it. But we believe that in a case o fthis kind that Mr. Wilson can change the order of things without endangering his popularity. If it is not an understood policy it is his opportunity to declare it off, not to speak of his duty.
NOVELS WILL HELP.
Our race will be helped very much by what we may call a new order of publications, short stories, novels, are what not, that tend to set forth evil and follies within the race, things we do not care very much about seeing in print. To the novel, as much as anything else, is owed the exposition of social wrongs, civil wrongs of enlightened countries.
The novel has been, at times, of more force and usefulness than the legislature. It has moved hand in hand, very often, with the pulpit. Nor should we forget the stage when speaking of the possible vehicles for good. Our race has stubbornly opposed anything that looked like the exposition of moral laxity, saying that since the other races were busy in the business, exposing the race, it should be the duty of race writers to "bull" the race rather than "bear" it. And there was reason for the position taken, since it was that way. The good that the race had done was interred with its bones and so forth. It is some different now. White publications are setting forth the best they see of us. But the point is not that.
In the inner precincts of our lives, our social activities, we find things controlled by influences, very often, that do not serve to race advantage. It is not always profitable to speak of these things from the housetops—from the pulpits, from the newspapers, and simply because the old notion of screening clings too faithfully on. Our race will find that it will have to grow retrospective, turn the searchlight inward, and become the "old ladder." The novels, the stage, the pulpit, the newspaper of the white race move like the recent Balkan allies on the strongholds of sin and wrong. They act as a combined battery in reducing the fortress of sin and wrong, thus holding civilization true to the thing that it stands for.
The white people have had their problem novels, their problem plays. Our race has benefitted because of them, yet we do not apply the morals in that efficacious way that would follow if our own race were directly dead, with no teaching is eminently achieved by action. We must have the truth pointed out to us, time and time again—at us.
The race seems to need most at this time moral propaganda, or a commission for moral guidance. The circulation of literature that points a moral as well as adorns a tale is it. A novel with a Negro villain as well as a Negro hero is the last thing expected in these days. But why not have novels of that kind? We have both heroes and villains among us. The ugly side must be showed up; not that it stay up permanently, but that it be put permanently down. It is plain enough that we do not take cheerfully to the idea of having our follies set forth. The result is that we are winking at just a little too much, and if we do not find less to wink at, we will find more. What this means needs no explanation.
ADVANCED PEOPLE MAKE FOR
AN ADVANCED GOVERNMENT
Self-government is the best of all governments, but it is also the most difficult. Only a very advanced people, a people of sound intelligence, and above all of robust character, is fit to govern itself—Roosevelt at Buenos Ayres, South America. The colonel knows just what to say. Doubtless his remarks were influenced by the Mexican situation. What he had to say has been accepted as a general truth. We Americans of the United States especially like the proposition that "only a very advanced people, a people of sound intelligence, and above all of robust character, is fit to govern itself." And yet if we cared to be academic the proposition could be reduced in its rigidity, unless it turns out that we are the only people living up to the terms of the proposition.
We think of our own country as an ideal government, holding it so because of the character of the people and the ideals held up and striven for. We think our kind of government is the best owing to our accomplishments under it. We think this so, but at the same time our theory of high-class government is not always borne out b other countries of similar government. We think that such a form had been just as great under another form of government. That is to say, the genius may reside within us, the people.
Until recently we were alone as the only high-class country with a republican form of government. France has been a republic for a few decades, the other country most approaching our own in civilization. But a few decades are only as moments in the history of that country, which has tried every form of government. Napoleon, at the beginning of his governing career, was practically Le President. Washington could have been on across the continent himself as Diaz of Mexico perpetuated himself, and just as kings have done, and at that of highly civilized governments.
Without the effort to disparage our own government we are not so sure that the elements given for the making make alone for the ideal. The western hemisphere is made of republics, mainly, Canada being the exception. Yet the other republics than our own do not come up to our conception of what makes a good, first-class government. We reach again the conclusion that we are made of people of our country, and who would make for a good government of any form. Barring France, no republic compares with us. Switzerland, it
seems, should be the republic, to which men should turn for republican inspiration. Housed amid the Alps, that people clung to their governmental faith, that of representative democracy, and absolute democracy, despite the world's political upharassage. And while the country appears as a country in miniature, it answers in most part the Roosevelt theory of an advanced people for republics. Switzerland is pre-eminently the land of schools. This, together with German substrata by way of its citizens, that rugged, free people, honest, bold people, have made for a government ideal in principle if not in its details.

Most of our western hemisphere republics are quiet, sane, progressive, yet they do not subscribe thoroughly to the Roosevelt doctrine of the best governments. Mexico, one would think, is more advanced than Argentine, but what does Mexico exhibit? The point is that the educated, advanced people make their ensured government the best kind of government. Germany, England, Japan are fine examples of educated peoples making for the best governmentes relegated to the least privileged may sail under. Surely we would not say that the governments of the Latin nations of America, although republics, compare with the monarchy of England. It is plain that an advanced people make for an advanced government regardless of the form, having in mind the better forms of present existing governments.

**Stroll in Full Bloom.**
Oh, you week of the third. The stroll is out tonight full of colored actors and a band. The band is a company at the old Pelkin, Edgar Carpenter and his Sambo Girls at the Grand. The last half the Famous Ten Dark Knight Sisters and the rest of them at the Monogram, got 'em. The old Monogram got 'em; everybody's got 'em; everybody's up and down, Baldy Jack bobbing up and down State street. Every actor is glad to meet a friend from his home Knight Sisters and made famous Professionel professional headquarters, and from 10 o'clock in the evening until the next morning the stroll is full. A brother or sister actors singing "Good Night, Lucinda." They are still doing case is all night long tooetasdjurian and It's a case of all night long, too.
Her Next Move
Hester Kenton jumped in to town from Atlantic City to play the Western State High School in Chicago to Indianapolis. She closed by singing "Frisco Bound." Instead, she said she is wondering what is next in store for her. She says it is up to the D. O. K. High School to do the same again, and she hopes that it will not be a big jump. She says she has a brand new shirt in which she jumped in the first house in which she appeared. The song is entitled "Jumping the Jump."
Sparing for an Opening
Joe Sims Minstrels played the Grand all week before last, going big every show. On Tuesday night Joe rushed the Tuesday room and the room of us that Mr. Humphrey of the Western Vaudeville, and Webster, of the Webster circuit, were in the theater to play the show all right, and when the curtain went up Humphries and Webster were there.

Actor to another actor: "Will you buy a ticket to George Williams' benefit?" The ticket to appear. "So on the benefit day he appeared all right. He appeared in front of the crowd. He was also the man he was to appear, so they let him in free, but he only appeared to see what acts he would appear to appear after he saw all the people he appeared.

He is a barber and his greatest interest is the fire Flushing. Enclosed you will enjoy the testimonial that he gave us commending our work. Too much cannot be said concerning closed testimonial will verify. The city of Flushing only boasts of three colored people, and to think that one of the three colored people means everything the town is only nutting it too wild. Success to Mr. Gaze and all other colored men who strive to do right and obtain means everything that is commendable.

SEEN AND HEARD WHILE PASSING.
(By Salem Tutt Whitney, Smart Set Company.)
"The Wrong Mr. President" played to a fair business at the Temple in opposition to the Crescent, untouchable 'Tom's' Cabin at the Lyric, Holy Saints' week, Holloween and numerous festivals and balls. Judge have done so well under the circumstances, and the Judge usually knows what he is talking about. Judge has been called to 'Judge', as he is affectionately called by his host of friends, is still the most conspicuous man in New Orleans. He of New Orleans. Years have failed to dim his eyes or dull his intellect, and he is springly step of a youngster just out of college. While in his office the Judge pointed with boyish pride to a 'Ceremony' to him by his professors in the year 1881.
The Judge is highly respected by the best white citizens of Oceania. The Judge is also respected by their place of business and is always greeted with "Hello Jim! How are you?" An introduction by the Judge is always greeted with graces, and they always seem delighted to do anything that will favor the Judge. No public gathering, smoker or socialization is quite complete without the Judge. The Judge is always a speaker, having almost complete command of the English language and a large vocabulary words flow from mouth in a beautiful way that seldom falls to entrance his hearers.
It is a regrettable fact that a large portion of colored people prefer to be "improved" and witness a white show in a colored show in a colored theater, where they have unrestricted facilities for enjoying the colored people at the Crescent to witness the Al G. Fields show was filled to standing room for every performance. The minstrel show was well up to the standard, but there were many people it that should have made it objectionable. The minstrels were filled to standing room for every people. The words "nigger" and "coon" were used repeatedly. The "crap" came from the fact that came with people. The fact was a positive insult. Representatives of all nations with their national flags were worn. The presented flags were with came with Negro characters, grotesquely dressed carrying flags with their blank sides holding flags with came with Negro characters, crudely drawn, of these flags showed them with painted figures and characters, crudely drawn, of Negro shootings crap, stealing water, holding flags with came with Negro shootings crap, every race has a Flag but a Coon. Only one or two of the colored people present, pressing the fingers, holding flags with came with Negro shootings crap, it is this sort of caricature that the Irish have resented so strenuously, the eggs and other miscles at the performers crap and other miscles at the performers crap in this manner mispresented them.
I take great pleasure in recommending the Neil O'Brien Minstrels. It is a clean, sombre, through words, "minstrel" minstrelsome, with the words "nigger" "ocean" are not used during the entire performance, and it contains nothing objectionable from the author. O'Brien the leading white exponent of the "blackface Negro" and has learned that the true art of entertaining is to please and draw offence to any portion of his audience.
"Chicken real" Beasman is making good in New Orleans as elsewhere. He is an intelligent comedian with a bright future, but should remember that the candle will not burn until ends and ends and no longer period of time.
"Gregz" Billy Nictols blew into town the last of the week. I have seen him looking better. Billy is a great performer, with talent to spare. He is also old enough to know that face he is given has not one ending.
Andy Pelibson and wife looked us over a thet Temple. They appeared prosperous and happy.
Mr. A. O. Smith, the genial proprietor of the Chicago Hotel, is still contemplating great趣 His latest venture is a Negro pleasure park, capitalized at $100,000. He is now selling stock at $10 per share worthy enterprise and deserves success.

Perrin, in Chinese character; Blondie Robbion, who cleaned up for everybody. Black introduced a neat little speech of thanks.

ST. LOUIS, MO.
Good Attractions at the Boeker Wash inston.
(By Walter S. Fearance.)
Act 1.—The house again has four acts of vaudeville, as of yore, after a recordbreaking week with the Brooks-Smith Players. Susie Sutton, a good character actress and singer, opened the week's well-balanced bill and scored an instant success. She plays the part of an old maid to perfection, and sings "The Vill hair, St. Paul, Burs, and the man winning the all hand on her good acting. She follows this with an Italian impersonation, and sings "Where the Maccaroni Grows", going big. Her act is closed with the song number, "I Don't Want To," ending a clean single that is unusual.
Act 2.—Lowe and Turner are next on the bill. This team is a new one on the circuit, with his some good staff. The players, playing the Booker Washington's audiences. They open with "Love Divine," going big with their classy steps. "South Carolina Rag," sung by Miss Turner, takes well with the audience and Miss Lowe follows with "A Jolly Good Time," impersonating a jolly fellow out for a good time, and gets a full hand on it. Their act is closed with the "Wirlwind Dance," that is danced to perfection. Miss Lowe, throughout the act, plays the part of a man and deserves credit for her good impersonation.
Act. 3.—The world-renowned Blondi Robinson has at last paid us a vist, and billed us for the trip. He was all that we expected and then some. He says "Smile, Smile, Smile." "And Then You Are Drunk," and billed us for the trip. He each number. His economic dance steps and contortions would make a corpse smile, and is worth going miles to see. Every smile and movement of Blondi Robinson would be a case of the blues, go and see Blondi act, and away the blues by.
The Two Sweets, St. Louis favors, are with us again, and in a brand new act that is very good indeed, and was well applauded by the overflowing houses opened with "Sampson's Band" and a stick twirling specialty by Long Wille, a funny attendant and followed by many sweeties that were followed by Sweets that kept the house in a constant uprear; but it remained for the band to strike the first cloord in "Tm So Glad My Name Is Sweet," and was followed by the house to be so demented, and dainty Miss Sweet sang it as never before. She was constantly called back time and time again to get enough. This scream we followed by parodies on "You Made Me Love You." "Keep It Up," by Sweet, that went big, with a comic appeal, the "Honey Bee."
CINCINNATI, O., THEATRICAL NOTES.
The Pekin opened Monday evening with a new and novel bill. Miss Elise Johns-Thompson just closed an extensive engagement on the Southern time, proved to be a good introduction, proved to be a good appearance here for several years, and her friends gave her a rousing closing numbers, and the act is a real headliner. They have good voices and pretty costumes. Their Indian dancingumes are a little better than the average.
Miss Jennie Monroe is back in the box office at the Polkin. (Better known as Cheekle), well known among members of the profession, died November 8, from an attack of the heart. (Better known as Henderson were the only down-town colored proprietors who were lucky enough to get saloon licenses under the new law. Are Cassady are the authors of a new waltz song, "In the Midst of the Ocean Blue." It's a big hit. Gales, one of the best known comedians in the Middle West, after spending a successful summer in the far West, is back home, in charge of a big spectaculairy show at the Kentucky towns along the Ohio river. The Lincoln Theater, at Fifth and John, is nearly completed. Speculation is rife that the staff will be. Tom Gales is strongly
Week of November 10.
Week of November 10, had Robinson and Brooks, in "Darktown Millionaires", with fine wardrobe, and a good, clean, chilly dress. The hit of the bill was Pete Delrose, "The Nervous Woman", who had a good line of talk. And, Louis, wooden shoe dancers, closed the bill with a good act. Crosby and Wilson opened the show.
Remarks.
The matinee every day is proving to be a winner. The theater is kept good and warm all over the house. Business is going strong and wait to get in. Mr. Goodman and Mr. Smith are giving them the goods, the song Mr. John H. Smith wrote for the movie. One side, let them out" Johnnie is going big with it. There was a little snow here yesterday. George is there with the same old song, going good and smiling at the ladies. He is very popular with them.

Preston and the "Original Bert Green" are still making good, old, fun music, still playing to packed houses, Green is an originator, writing and staging his own dances, h. always bring the house down with applause. Miss Preston in her repertoire of songs and her pleasing personality, she is one of the greatest sopranos in the state and is very well known. She is one of the greatest sopranos one of the highest class acts now staged. The proprietor rand manager, R. F. Johnson, is always smiles at the close of the day.

"My Experience as a Super," taking part in all the leading dramas and operas of the 1950s, "The Hamlet," "Julius Caesar," "Macbeth," "Garden of Allah" and "Kismet." I have noticed the leading ladies and gentlemen of my race are very backward in attendance, and I have seen dark races, ages ago and their triumph in struggles in civilization. Girls do not retrace their footsteps and read ancient and modern history that is being played now by men in this age, and read that did occur thousands of years ago. I think that the younger people of my race have themselves greatly by studying these histories.

She'll hold a righteous name.
And may she be a Christian,
The kind that's tried and true,
And do the will of God above,
As all good Christians do.
When life's uneven journey is ended,
And when she closes her eyes to sila,
She will be welcomed to a rest—

Unclean Acts in London Theaters
Causes a Stir on State Street.
(By Sylvester Russell.)
When preachers, moral teachers and critics, whose duty it is to work for the cause of moral decency and the upholding of society, get slaps in the face, as well as the development of the social managers as G. Bernard Shaw, it is always time for the people to act. The bishops of London, England, who took exceptions to imoral features at the Palace theater, had this to say: "Thank for the first time and the first majority of decent citizens have made up their minds to ask: 'Are we going back to a standard below Plato and Aristotle, to lower tribes and savages, or must we take up the gauntlet and lead to battle'—we are not to be so far from running rampant that a vigilance committee of colored citizens are busy signing a listed petition to send to Mayor Carter Harrison, protesting against certain suggestive maturities such as have been enacted as a blow in the magar of London tradition. The fact that Manager Martin Klein, on State street, in Chicago, has been in favor of suggestive features, in acts that have been so well known as the "Hearts Man" and the "Theaters and that Klein has been noficient and defiant, indicates that he may soon become a detriment to Miller, who is his brother-in-law. If he continues to insult the one press representative, who, for the years he has tried to eliminate this condition or if he dares to tamper any further with public sentiment.
Walker Show Fills the Pekin
The second week of Aida Overton Walker again filled the Pekin theater. Black Bryd, prima comma, and Harry need a shared honor with the star. Other artists who shown were Miss Teare, Maggie Thompson and James Marshall, Hilli Poisson gave excellent service as leader of a new orchestra. N. S. Peldman, Mrs. Walker's personal manager, of New York, has been a great friend of Dr. Baxter are still press agents for the show. Henry (Teenan) Jones was lessee of the theater for Mrs. Walker. This engagement solves the problem for the funeral combination companies in colored theaters.
"Real talent," the Frisco Four quartet once had finished their first song. The comedy scene, "St. Peter," could have been a litter-bearers, Sam and Maud Keeling, John Burnham and Mamie Burnham, a new soprano of excellent quality and range, who should have sang a solo, completed the quartet.

The States Changes to Pictures
The States is now a picture house and five cents is the admission, except on Sundays and holidays, when light vandellevie acts will be utilized. The Blackstone quarrels with Sigma were last Sunday's bill. The feature picture Monday was: "A Fair Exchange."
Criswell & Bailey at the New Mongram
There was a clean show at this house. Ora Criswell was the strong comedian star, and Laura Bailey sang and acted nicely. Morris Morris was improved in every way, as strong and strong. Price had a very good singing and acrobatic dancing act. Bonnie and Semoura were a good comedy team whose dialogue was funny, and their entertainment team appeared as a place. Devons and Jeffries, who were late in arriving from Cleveland, but who opened Tuesday night.

The Fatal Throng.
This is a song of folks gone wrong;

Mistakes are made when things are said
But if with sorrow you would wud,
You'll soon be numbered with the dead

Her first song, "Arocida," was a splendid rendition. Her tones were musical and full, giving pleasure to bear them. Madame Lizzie would think, of speaking her singing

The third and last song, "Hello, Mr. Moon, Hello," was written in a blilling way, but none the less effective. The Madame was handsomely gowned, making for a superb stage figure. She was the first apperance last Tuesday.

The very popular baritone is playing a return engagement at the Garden theater. East Washougal houses of indianapolis. He met with a warm welcome, a very congratulatory thing in view of the very cultured audience. His high-class society and their rendition are greatly appreciated. Prof. Davis has met a fine baritone, Vilasen, a German singer with whom he will team in the production.

Same run of good pictures in the same old Coleman way and style.

Stim Lim Jones, that long, lanky medician, was a riot of fun and jokes, years, but Stim Lim was not years, but Stim Lim is undoubtedly the best comedian the race has produced in the last decade. Too many good things can be appreciated. Miss Gray has to be appreciated. Miss Gray has a sweet voice and soon sang herself into favor, endearing herself to all. It was a foregone conclusion that they would be held over for their weekend. They overshowed the pictures.
Notes.
It is rumored that Mr. Lew W. Henry, the genius of the Dudley queen and Miss May Whitman, of the famous Whitman Sisters, are soon to be married. The writer, Mr. Hall, met them at a lunch Whitman did not deny and seized happy; Lew only smiled.

A Toast for the Performers—The Way I Look at It.
(By Baby F. Seals.)
D stands for Dudley,
What did he have done?
Big claise in vaudeville,
Since Seals and Fisher begun.
O stands for Owsey;
And Tellier and Fisher.
He is called the Little Wizard.
And a jolly, good fellow.
K stands for Kemper,
Keystone, kind and Kemper.
Another good one to meet.
If he doesn't lose his temper.
T stands for time;
not afraid
I in God we trust
I be happy and proud.
M for mighty movement
That S. H. D. started.
G is the ending of a prosperous life.
When from earth he has parted
With the earth.
W, who keeps me working; Gee, that's
nice.
H, if big big, fat, good-hearted guy, and
boss of the eastern time.
These boys are a friend the performer
and the first to pop up, I believe.

NOTES OF THE ALABAMA MIN STRELS.
We showed day and date with the tinging show at Greenville, Tex., October 27. We also gave the Alabama did get their shirt business. At Greenville it was a "turnaway," and terrrel extra good, considering Elwood Johnson, who has for the past (eew years been with A. G. Allen's Minster, joined the team at Dallas, in the mid-1980s and led legacy.
Carrie Nugent, the little lady that can ensure success, added to the team the album *Minstrels*. Richard Dick Stewart is the proud post-war singer, and Dick Nugent had a hard time in getting same, as was sent to Canada by mistake, and did to the team until we arrived at Paris, Tex. by the end of the year.
We showed Dallas, Tex., October 29, to capacity business.

SUNNY DIXIE MINSTRELS STILL IN TEXAS.
The Sunny Dixie Minstrels are still in the Lone Star state, playing to S. R. O. only. On November 2, we played Austin, the star of the show, out. Our manager, Mr. Dana Thompson, was all smiles, because the Sunny Dixie Minstrels is the only show that cleans up in Austin that we see here. Nelson Johnson watches a stream and scores a home run. Our clever comedian, Happy Dudley, is some funny comedian, featuring the famous song "I'll Be Your Man." Mrs. Barrice Pressley, although very young in the profession, is a dainty little soubrette. Peewe McCoy, our interluteror, is a headed mby the wide-faced
comedians, Mr. Otto Bradler, Robert Pressley, and the funniest fat man, Harry Cabbage Johnson. The feature act of the Sunny Dixie Minstrels is the act known as "Man and Wife," in which Mrs. Rost at'tall is the feature. Mrs. Frankie C. Latham brings up the rear, singing "Snoooky Okums," and is a scream, taking two and three encores nightly. We, the Sunny Dixie bunch, bar no other aggregation, under the management of our clever stage manager, Little Dick Brown. Mr. Leslie Davis, our orchestra leader, certainly plays some classy music. The bunch sends regards to all in and out of the profession. Boyse Gray, write to Mr. Samuel Tatnall and Miss Rosa Ives, who were quietly married at Port Lavaca, Texas. Mrs. Cleo Brown, write to Mrs. Beatrice Presley, Edna Dudley, hello; why don't you write to Mrs. Frankie C. Latham? No one need worry about the Sunny Dixie Minstrels, because the ghost is never sick and stops at car No. 7, no matter how good or how bad the weather may be.
MAKE HIT OF THE SEASON.
Prof. Eph Williams' Famous Trouba
doubledown Theater Opera
Tahalah, Tahalahs, Fla.
(By Marvelous La Vola.)
The show consisting of fifty-one performers brilliantly costumed and trained to the hour, gave a performance to a pack of house, and the manager of the theater was Priscilla Williams which copilament when he said: "I have played all the colored shows, and must confess that your show is without a doubt of the progress and range aggregation of color. I am very confident of the other performers, and I give them a strong and strong邀约 of the most complete satisfaction of any show that has ever played any house. Your vandeville numbers were a complete show alone." The costumes were simply so simple that the show was so simple as to be as the part of the Parisian costumes of the leading lady, Miss Susie Cookside, ably assisted by Miss Millie Bradford, were the hit of the night.
The Knox, the North Star Comedian, covered himself with glory, as usual, and W. A. Raynard came in for the lion's share of applause, appearing in many of the latest fad costumes.
The show was made with the goods under the direction of Prof. Fred Kewley. The band has been greatly augmented by the addition of Mr. Stratton Sousa, phonist of Barnum & Bailey Law, who was a star of the many New Yorker's group. For the first time, our street cornet nonsationalist, for a time, was working in the upper register. The band consists of fourteen pieces, under Prof. Collins.
Ways are the work was clean and difficult, but appeared as child's play for this master of wire walkers.
Jospehine Williams singing and dancing, improvising softly, performance, that is so much to record breaker for crowds, handling people than ever before. Regards to all. Bonne, Montgomery, Ala., Monday, November 17; Selma, Ala., Tuesday, November 18.

Wash Martin's Sunshine Girls will bid for approval at the Majestic theater this week, beginning November 14. The company will come up to expectations, if past performances are to be relied upon. As cadiant as the first rays of the morning sun, the Sunshine Girls will endeavor to dispell gloom and destroy unpleasantness. The Sunshine Girls will be many recognized artists for genuine ability, prominent among them: Pete Curley, Frank Manning, Charles Raymone, Jasper Jackson, Vivian Clement, Prince Martin Curlie.
Rich, beautiful and magnificent costumes will add to the attraction of twenty-six young and pretty girls. Elabo creates a unique environment of beauty which the demands of fancy require in stage pictures. The special music written for this show is interpolated with the most charming songs that the are the hits of New York.
(By Walker Wilmer Thomas.)
Eston and Eston are at the Belmont theater, making a big hit with their late songs and dances. They receive three nights, nightly.
Patterson and Patterson are also on the bill for this week. They are doing nothing but first-class work, which is barely led by the packed houses every night.
Boyd Harris, the man who "shows" Beans, is the man who "shows" nothing but the late songs composed by himself. Harris receives three and four encounters every night, singing "Beans." Thomas Minton, the tramp musician, chose him. He made a successful engagement.
Harkum and Nugent closed here last week, after spending two months in the theater and made a big bit while here.
The Belmont theater is now under the control of the new manager will be slad to have the better class of colored people attend the show. The manager promises nothing but clean shows even yellows. The Freeman is for sale at the theater, be a writer W. Thomas and Bertram W. White.
GEO WILLIAMS BENEFIT.
Everybody Read This.
CHICAGO. Ill.—The benefit was a success, but a frame-up game. Although he was a fan of the game, $30.95 all I got for Georgette was $46.75, $4 of that being in checks from Tim Owley, Tim Moore, Bob Slater, Bart Kenneden and Joe Gordon, Tony Langston, of the team. I gave them $99.25 to give it, which they took, and gave me the rest, $46.75. Joe Gordon also claims the game was his office, and as they won not put me in the box office or on the door, we had to take his word for it. Some of them said we were not sure we knew what can be in. All I have to say is that the benefit did the ones that were at the head of it more good than the others. The States have 700 hundred seats; $8 were vacant, so use your judgment about how much came in. The oni yhthing that we gave him a benefit, as I have had Georgette
bring with me for eight years, and if I had him that long, I didn't think man of their standing would use my husband's and my name to make the public think their hearts were right when they had to think about the start, which they did. Want all to join me in wishing those who gave the benefit good luck. They got most of the money they received, and they will be rewarded by a higher court some day. I remain as ever, a sister to the profession.
M.S. MOGLIE CROSEY PERRIN, P.S. Although Sid Perrin was secretary of the affair, his mail was opened at the Pompei before he got it. They rude to make me share the night for $25 as George Sharp might for the benefit, which I refused to do.

Lincoln Theater
Sam Zetto, in his Italian character, did very well an dwent big with the audience. Glenn & Brogsdale did a nice singing act. As a team they are new to the Harlem people. Mr. Glenn was been the member of the group who had been part of Miss Glenn, of whom is one of the best buck dancers in the business. They made quite a reputation for themselves as Glenn & Glenn, but Mr. Glenn has been lucky in getting another very good game and was so good in the game. The group of Glenn & Brogsdale will be known as well as was the name of Glenn and Glenn. They opened at the Lincoln theater for three days, and were such a hit that after the first show Manager Ed McNealy went up the business from and signed them up for the week. Clara Cubitt did very well, too. The Original Happy Pour were another big hit and went well. N. E. Martin with his zylophone was well received. The "Kinky" story and a Miss Green Goldie followed. She is one of the big time acts and a clever woman. She is a coon shouter from the word go. Her delivery is great, her voice strong, and she puts over a song in great style, has a big body and has a number of times, becoming a favorite. She went big. We have Glenn and Brogsdale in another act closing the bill with a scream.
Lafayette Theater.
Two weeks of success for J. Luburie Hill's "Darktown Follies," Every member of the team engages here, and all made good. Sam Gaines as Jasper Green, owner of a plantation near Leesburg, a.; A. Bradford; Lillian Bradford; Jim Jackson Lee. Jasper's son-in-law; Julius Glenn, and Will C. Brown, with the goods. Miss Jennie E. Schaffer as Madam Langtree, a grass widow; Evon Robinson, her youngest daughter; played their parts well. Mr. E. L. Perkins, a prominent lawyer of Leesburg did that part to perfection. He stars in the play well, well. Mr. Hill deserves great credit for putting on so great a show. He stars in the play well, well. He is exceptionally funny. The remainder of the company worked hard; so did Mr. J. Luburie Hill, Miss Bibel Williams, Daisy Brown and Edna Morton. This week we have at the Lafayette vaudeville, an event that we will be attending, Copeland and Payton, Johnnie Woods, Miss Cassell and Harrison Stewart's stock company in a mega-market. Copeland and Payton, Johnnie Woods, Miss Cassell and Harrison Stewart, Viola Stewart, B. Morgan, Hattie Hurris, Robert Allen, J. Luburie Hill, Blanche Hurris, Burris and Chris Smith, the latter two being song writers.
Crescent Theater.
Williams and Stevens, after a successful run of five weeks, closed Sunday night. It was Williams, a secrecote coach who advised his team he might not be able to finish the week; but having a strong constitution, he recompiled to last on the week and perhaps next. Following them came Jess Shipp and Carl's big act as a special attention-grabber, with gold in "Wash Day on the Levee," and it was a great hit. In connection with this was James Dero, the great back and wing dance act, Mr. B. Rayburn sang a parody on "You Made Me Love You" that was the art of dance, dance, dance finish they set the house wild. The Musical Craigs did a nice act. Emily Burbier got by nicely, and Lewis did very well. To Tokyo, Jianese, did very well with the violin.
Family Theater
Miss Ross and Turner went big at this theater. They were followed by Ruth Allen, a nice little souret. To name the number of times Miss Allen has worked with her, she does not really know, herself. She is a favorite any time she appears, receiving ovations that are to her liking. Smith and Mills went nicely. The hit, the happy Forsell, the noise of her performance, Percell and Thornton got their share of the applause.
Pioneer Theater.
Gray and Gray opened this bill this week with a singing and dancing act of a musical duet, and went back. Dixon and Hanson did well. The Great Musical Martini made the hit of his life here—in fact the audiences went to hear his work. He returned to earn Ellsworth and her dancing girls cleaned up for fair, for their act was a riot. It will pay managers of the different theaters as it is clean reduced and up to date.
Franklin Theater.
This pretty little theater has nothing
beautiful. It is not as beautiful as it are,
it is thought that later on on
will be again put on. Let us hope so
that the audience will get the
better it is for the profession.
59th Street Theater.
Eight acts on this bill last week and this, all going nicely. The country storing all the gifts is all smiles, as his business is gradually improving. More people are learning of the gifts and are coming to the theater.
The Holiday and Vaughner Company at White Plains, N. Y. the first three nights of this week. Booked by the Small United.
Mr. Harry Conley, the great tramp barrel jumper, just arrived in New York to open on the Cleveland time.
Reports from Eddie Day say he is doing fine in Boston. Mass.
John W. Cooper reports that he has a number of engagements yet, and is undoubtedly making good.
I received a card from an act asking me to mention them, stating that they were on a certain house, in a certain town. I know they are been laying off for three weeks, and I hope they won't look for the write-up.
We are to have two new colored theaters next year. One is to start building soon. I shall mention the names of the houses later, as the managers are not for this information to be made public.

WEALTH OF SPORTING MEN.
Jack Johnson Under the Ban—The Black Fighter Faces Opposition From Every Direction.
rries for the world's championship; the Players' Protective fraternity has only four present its demands formally to the club owners to have all the important ones granted, and if any trades of players are on their way they are away up in the air.
(By Billy Lewis.)
What sporting men have done with their earnings, or what they are doing with their earnings, has been the subject of much debate. The latter-day sporting men are making much more of their opportunity than those of some years ago. This especially applies to boxers, fighters, many of whom have won fortunes on the throw of a boxing match.
In these days the young fellows have a good value on their bones. They are willing to take good care of their bodies and to invest in the ward pay for it. And when they get it they hurry to the bank or other places of security and store it in a safe. A commercial flavor, also makes it a little tame; yet, take it all in all, it is much better than it was some years ago. It is more racially recognized, more respected, and most more good results to the fighters. The tameness results from the spirit of toleration and the ability to forge a sort of domestication. The same in many communities is legalized. Men don't have to fight in battle between the two sons—on issues in the seas or in the fields—for a sort of domestication, this fact, meaning a phase of sportmanship extracted and which seems necessary if the thing is what is expected. The sport needs an element of chance, a little risk. Too much method destroys the poverty made in the seas. It comes in a third-day post, some through method. This commercialism was not possible in the days of the "Little squandrums" when men fought,
It is very doubtful if there can again be enough interest in a scrap of any kind to draw attention to it. More years the pursues of to-day will not be known, this because every considerable town will have its boxing club; there will be a boxing club in every town that travel from New York to California to see the best card that can be advertised. The present-day scrappers will continue to work, the name will continue, one will think, but scraps will not be rattles, hence will be without the drawing qualities of those who were years ago, and those of the present day.
I quote from the Indianapolis Sun the following:
"When Leach Cross learned that Willie Bitche had gathered more than $45,000 bitche got a toothache. Cross had the opportunity to get a bank roll even larger than that bitche Bitche had in the box Wolsterg before Bitche got a match with the former champion. Cross had the champion now if Cross and his business representatives could have been reassured with. That is why Leach got a pair which he named Bitche's "Husband." He issued the chance of his career last year and he realizes it now. "Ad Wolsterg, the ex-lightweight champion, will be the first mayor of Mayor Fred Heath, of Hastings, Mich., paying Heath $17,000 for a ranch near Medford, Orc. "Wolsterg now owns two commercials." Wolsterg will farm and considerable live stock."
The calling of a conference to quiet a boxing title is something new. It is much like the elimination business of our own country, which practically encounters it. It is not see how it is possible to legislate an individual out of a title actually won by physical effort. I cannot see how we could snatch the title from the champion, but they had earned it. It strikes me that a string of "No's" around the world could not chance the situation. The late Mr. J. P. Morgan said that you could not unhook a boxing title from pugilism. Napoleon's soldierly status will not be undermined by the resolutions of men. Some things do not yield to resolutions. I think that the title of Jack Johnson is one of

ries for the world's championship, the Players' Protective fraternity has only to own the players' equipment and to have all the owners to have all the important ones granted, and if any trades of players are made, the players will be joined. The foregoing are the important items culled from the brief session in which the American Leaguers closed up their years' experience and joined the players journaled until they meet again in February to ratify the next playing schedule. There was a general discussion of Harry Hare's experience in playing season early and introduce an entirely new deal next fall to keep interest alive in inaugurating a scheme in which all the players would play all the teams in the other for the final honors. The young league's club owner was immensely in favor of preserving the world's oldest playing schedule. President Johnson's suggestion to open the league date for inaugurating the next permanent team. The players justusted by mutual agreement between the two schedule committees, which are to meet during the winter to draft the playoffs.
A rules committee, consisting of President Johnson, C. W. Somers of Cleveland and Comite Mack of Philadelphia, was appointed to the committee to report the committee from the National League regarding the playing rules. No radical revision is expected, but the main object is to harmonize the interpretation of the code to it shall be uniform in both leagues. These committees are expected to get together some time in December following the announcement of the annual season. The president Somers was re-elected unanimously and the directorate for 1914 will consist of St. Louis, Detroit, Washington and Chicago. The other four directors, which consisted of the other four clubs in the league, met in advance of the league meeting and officially awarded the penant to the Athletics, then went over the treasurer's report

DILLON'S UPPERCUT IS
TOO MUCH FOR CHRISTIE
Beer Town Pug Is Lucky to Escape Dreamland—Savors of So-
MILLWAUKEE.—Boxing promised to become a society stunt here. Several box parties were in evidence at the Jack Dillon-Gus Christie go last night, and several women strolled with men through the lobby of the auditorium between the box.
A right upperent in the first minute of fighting put Christie to the mat for a seven count, and took all the pep out of the local boy, earning him a decisive whipping. Dillon outweighed Christie about seven pounds.
The Indianapolis pug all but knocked out Christie in their ten-round boat, Christie having the better of only a round, with an even break in three rounds. Several times the Hoosier scrapper had his opponent on the verge of a knockout, but each time the gong saved him. Christie's beating was due to his failure to protect his jaw against the terrible right which Dillon had, a knock-down being made in the first and again in the seventh round.
Dillon and Christie fought at catch weights. Dillon went in at 170 pounds as against his usual fighting weight of 158 pounds, while his opponent was under 163.

NEW PASTOR GIVEN RECEPTION
Bethel A. M. E. Church Scene of Brill
laint Affair Wednesday Night.
(H. W. Jay.)
Wednesday night, Bethel A. M. E. church was the scene of the most brilliant reception ever given at that church, which was held at Roberts and his family. Three thousand persons, representing all parts of the city and the various churches, were asked to attend the day school auditorium and witnessed a program of music and speech. In the center of the floor stood a table upon which the pastor, Roberts and his wife and children. Presiding Elders Lewis and Hunter and the pastors of other churches. Cut glass and huge well-wrapped plates were well-arranged table. A salad lunch with briek ice cream and cake was served to all present. Edward Sanders, with a collection of ten waiters, gave service to the guests.
At a quarter after nine, a procession, composed of the pastor and his family, other local pastors and the Deaconess and Stewardess boards and several of the pioneer residents and members of Bethel, marched into the reception room while the choir sang "Holy, Holy," under the direction of Prof. Robert Austin. After they were seated, H. L. Sanders, a prominent merchant of the city and an active member of Bethel, who was master of ceremonies of the evening, presented Thomas E. Taylor, general secretary of the colored men's branch of the Y. M. C. A., who, after a selection by the choir, invoked the Divine blessing Mr. Sanders then gave a short biography of "Mother" Hall, who is said to be the oldest of the Bethel membership. Much stress was laid upon the fact that Mother Hall should not be overlooked in these, her days of feebleness.
Miss Gladys Lewis, the youngest daughter of William Lewis, editor of The Freeman, sang a solo. Captain Jacob Porter, a member of the trusted board, showed a woman of the same name, the pastor and his family, in behalf of the church. The Rev. J. R. Harvey, pastor of Allen Chapel church, delivered an excellent welcome address to the citizens and churchmen of the city. Miss Marion Shelton, daughter of James N. Solow, was the under-leader of the solo accompanied by Mrs. Kate Buzzel. George L. Knox, proprietor of The Freeman, delivered an address, which was followed by a response by Rev. Roberts. The new pastor impressed his hearers with the fact that the day of theoretical work was being paid to the same person and was now living in a day of practical religion. He heartily solicited the support of the church in the furtherance of his plans for church betterment and community service.
Kevin Roberts is an able and practical man, with much determination to succeed in his calling and to redeem and uplift his race. He was pastor of Bethel about thirty years ago and comes back to this, the largest of colored churches. He is the city with a modern life.
Rev. T. Smith, the former pastor, exchanged pupils with Rev. Roberts at the recent conference. The latter comes from Bethel A. M. E. church of Chicago.

Stop parading the streets with that working attire all shot to pieces and run down shoes and a head rag on and think that all the people will look over you. The night women of the race must learn to be gentle and disciplined in like their dealings with each other. It is a stimplant that pays and will help one and all. The night schools should be taught to be gentle and disciplined in like their dealings with each other. It would pay some members of the race to stop their stalling, lying and loud laughing and the foregoing will town to bettering in Dallas that are much needed.

Fashionable fall and winter opening events in the city socially in the past week, where hundreds of visitors from all parts of the Lone Star state and other states were represented. Fad and fashionable was doubled at the annual event and at the private residences all the week. The toot of the auto, the step of the hoofs, the rolling of wheels, all caught the eyes of the passerby in various parts of the city. At the time, Club Taborian sisters and brothers were holding, receptions for members and visiting friends. At the residence of Mr. and Mrs. Richard Bills, 2620 Cochran street, all was aglow in honor of Mr. Graves, the Galeston and Mrs. Wm. Danderage of Hornson, about the city guests. It was a scene of handsomely gowned women and well dressed men, enjoying life to the strains of Mr. Hearn's orchestra. A dailuty menu was served to over thirty couples.
The wedding of Mr. J. E. Johnson and Miss Nora L. Beachum, on Wednesday at 8 o'clock at 1913 North Allen street, was the cause of more friends gathering together to do honor to those who are tak-
a jelly bunch of good ones, wishing merry etc. They held open house on the 4th for their many friends.
The beautiful residence of Mr. and Mrs. Lawyer Turner, on North Allen street, was the home of Mrs. Annie Markum, formerly of Dallas, but now of San Antonio, where pleasure was enjoyed among his mursy ones, and the art of cookery was tested to its fullest. Old acquaintances were renewed and many new ones made. Next found a gathering of the clients at the Creeman reporter lives, 2922 Cochran Street. They came in a bunch, and what they had and they seemed to have enjoyed it was the kitchen, up to the top. They all became acquainted, by the mysterious route, to Mrs. Markum, and other visitors here and journeyed home.
The home of Mr. and Mrs. Sam Miller, 3711 Convent, where pleasure and merriment reign, where old and young folks enjoy an even more pleasurable life. A.

But now busy at the game, but in a stronger role, home making and buying. Friday night found the 1913 seniors with Miss Mabel Robins, 1006 Hawkins street, entertaining classmates and friend. The class colors were worn and all enjoyed the occasion.
Several social clubs held meetings and will announce their functions later.
These functions brought together over five hundred people at the various places in the city, and space will not permit the naming of the various persons.

Stage Notes
At the Star theater the big crowds have been doing the laughing because the show is so funny. Leo's Creole Belle is the offering, with Manager Crosby as "King Razz." The singer needs more snap and singer the part. The singing, dancing and musical numbers stormed the house. Costumes and acting are needed in these companies when they go to the show. They go well anywhere. Let the performer form originality and be good to stay long.

Special to hundreds of inquirers.—We know nothing of Mr. Rector Patterson, a performer that it is said was held in prison in Montgomery, is runaway and there. Anyone knowing of him can relieve much of the talk by writing a few lines to be published in these columns.

GREAT FOOTBALL GAME
Sumner High Wallops George R. Smith
College of Sedalia.
The Summer High School football team won a decisive victory over the team from George R. Smith College, of Sedalia, Mo., and both were tuned up for a hard fight. The score was 40 to 1. It was the first meeting of the two teams on the gridron, and both were tuned up for a hard fight. The team starred for Summer, scoring six touchdowns among them. Captain Morgan and Jefferies were the most aggressive players, making many beautiful tackles and breaking up plays. The strong Summer team is to play Indiana University on turkey day, and we are looking for some good players. We force 6 to 0, a clean victory over one of the best colored teams in the country. The line-up of the teams was as follows: Dr. C. L. Thomas, Ohio State University. Umpire—D. W. Bowl, Howard University. Linesman, Walter S. Fearonce, Summer. Summer—Green-Turpin, left end; Peterson, left tackle; Hutchinson, left right guard; Staten, right tackle; Anthony, right end; Capt.

ELDER JAMES M. WEBB'S STATE MENT OF HIS BIBLICAL PIC TURE OF JESUS AS "A BLACK MAN."
After preaching and lecturing on special occasions in the city of Chicago and other cities, that Jesus was a black man by blood and hair, according to biblical history, and also defeating one of the most learned and informed biblical white ministers in the northeast of the United States, January 28, 1904, at Seattle. Wash. in a debate that the same was true according to biblical history, the victory from the said debate aroused me somewhat zealously to write a book that Jesus was a black man (which I did), believing that the book would be somewhat a laurel of honor to my race. especially to the sons and daughters of Ham's America, who are opposed and deprived of their living rights on account of their Hamite blood, hair and color; but however, to finish the climax of my work about Jesus being related to the black race by blood, I now present to the world a picture of Jesus at His second coming, entitled "The Biblical Jesus," who will have woolly hair like a typical black man when He comes to judge the world.
I am preparing to lecture on this picture throughout the country.

Webb's Famous Picture of Jesus! Is Finished in Colors—Was Jesus a Negro with Woolly Hair?
Webb's books and pictures prove it and show it by the Bible. A 12th-pleasure of Jesus with woolly hair and His holy angels at His second coming, and a book with Biblical references extending from Genesis to Revelations, prove this fact. The following comments are upon the same:
“I beg to say, after hearing Elder Webb on the subject, that the blood of the Negro cours and through the veins of Jesus and Solomon. I am frank to say that I have seldom, if ever, enjoyed such an intellectual treat. The position he assumed as the subject of his lecture touching the Hametic blood and race is difficult and requires a practical knowledge of Biblical and historical love. But, I am pleased to say that he not only shows himself an expert, but the master of the situation, and I commend him to the ministry and churches of our race of every denomination. Truly.”
