(Bureau of the Freeman, 1337 Wallace Place, N. W., Washington, D. C.) WASHINGTON, D. C. June 10—The Bureau of the season was the reception and banquet last Friday evening at OM Follows Tull, tended in honor of Judge Robert Tull, the mark for the season by the race in his confirmation and confirmation as a member of the Municipal Bench of the District of Columbia. For early hour the spacious hall was filled with an audience that has not been equaled in brilliance, beauty and culture of Judge Tull, and it was felt everywhere that the success of Judge Tull in running the gannetlet of race residues in high and low places throughout the land and that the signal triumph should be marked by an expressive expression or the gratification of the race and an extension of appreciation to the "powers" that made the vio- The speeches, limited to three, were of an oratory and clean-cut logic—digitized, comprehensive and sincere.

He referred with great particularity to the fact that the J.D. of New York was a member of the nation to a statesman of Judge Terrell's caller at the nation's capital, where the example of breadth and civic liberality should be set for the entire country. He retired many instances of Judge Terrell's ability as a jurist, of his fine legal attainments and of his loyalty as a friend, and of his high character as a man of high quality. Some interesting inside facts in the several fights of Judge Terrell for his various re-appointments were given, and how he won out, showed in Mr. Dancy's opinion, that as a judicial warrior, that the guest of honor was one of the most brilliant generals the country has ever been. He was a man of high rank, and was only evidence—he knew no color line as he balanced the scales of justice evenly. Mr. Dancy was at his best and his reminiscences of the great men of the race who had been the contemporaries of Judge Terrell, and himself in public life and to whom he had looked for guidance and inspiration, were listened to with the close managing a committee was made up of William Brooks, chairman; W. H. Clifford, chairman; Schafferd, Charles E. Hall and Thomas J. Schafferd, Charles E. Hall and Thomas J. Schafferd, Charles E. Hall and Henry W. Freeman constituted the committee. Nearly one hundred prominent representatives of the social, business, and official life of capital were members of the reception committee, and all did their work. The rage did itself proud in tendering merited testimonials to the only college on the American coast that the oceanism displayed indicates a healthy concern to the unity that will bring access to the race in every arena of social activity.

Special. identified in every good work that tended toward the elevation of his people and community and agile the people of New York, and he was another one who was dear to all classes of men. He work speaks for itself, and the history of his life need not be written for the world to know that he has lived and worked from a few scattered peoples to a large and powerful membership of $3000; the many civic imprints he made and stood out in protest by him; the many untortunate for whom he has interceded and plead and in many instances used his own means to secure justice and more power in the public life as a written history of his character.

Invitations were sent soliciting the presence of the parents and friends of the school to be present. The exhibit was very pretty, and engaged and re-visited by many students. The school as well for the high class of work that had been accomplished. To those who were connected with the school when these departments were first inaugurated this was indeed a very pleasant surprise for the students. The high school and meager equipment with which those boys and girls first worked and then on last Friday saw the rapid strides in both equipment and quality of work were more than pleased and truly convinced that the colored youth is appreciative of what may be done to him. He is an official lineman, the capacity for any kind of work that might be assigned to him. On entering the building we first come to the mechanical drawing and wood-work departments, presiding over the work. Here we see first drawings of all kinds executed by the young men of all classes of the school with great accurateness and neatness. We see drawings for furniture, for praises from a great number of the visitors were the globe valve by Kenneth Baker and architectural drawings by me. But time and space will not allow us to enter into a detailed description of the exhibit. All the work was commended to me by the department, we see foottools, tubes, desk, chairs, hall trees all finished and polished so as to make one think that he was in a first class of the department. Had been executed by skilled mechanics, Upstairs one is taken off his feet so to speak and the salivary glands are made from the skin. The most attention was given to table delicacies that were on exhibit. Here one might observe pies, canned fruits, beads, gelatines and cakes. The most attention was given to the arranged table following the yellow and green color scheme. What we need, some of the boys have said, is good cooks and fewer surfactettes. We think that the arrangements are in a position to supply this demand. Our usher then escorts us into the sew- ing department where, we see all kinds of sewing too much for a man to undertake to tell about, for we know perhaps a little bit of what I know, for we know perhaps a little bit of what I know I had not order, for fear I might make a mistake. From the sewing books admitted to exhibit by the members of the college, we see that the department broidery and dress and suits shown by the senior class the exhibit was a thing of grander and beauty. Our department has a particular interest and this was the class quilt, made by the members of the gradual background and their name in black and other particular background and background and patched some with yellow background and their name in black and other particular background and very pretty quilt and was the object of many pleasant comments by the many visitors.

E. church, is having great success as a pastor. No Sunday morning can one get a seat in his church unless they are there by 10:30 a. m. Not only is the church filled in a few minutes after that hour but the crowds are so large that overflow meetings are held in the basement. Dr. Smythe is doing a wonderful work in the city of Chicago. No pastor has ever filled the pulpit with more grace, dignity and honor and delivered better sermons than he. Everybody loves him and he is honored and admired by old and young and all denominations. He is thought of so well among the young people that they don't think they are married spiritually unless the Rev. Smythe "ties the knot." There is some talk of his name being presented at the next general conference for bishop and if that is so, he will have the hearty support of the Illinois, Indiana, Ohio, Kentucky and Michigan delegations. Bethel is in a most prosperous condition. Merrica First Private Patient. Miss Alexandria Cunningham, a recent graduate of Provident Hospital, was the first woman to be hired.

The city of Chicago is one place where the brain of man is constantly devising and inventing for the happier life of man. The human mind is being people. In medicine, law, art, business, mechanics, this is witnessed daily. This is seen also in the tonsorial parlor, where the people are in the most of the most weary a barber shop and see a tool and razor that had been used the entire day on the faces of others. No attention was paid to the father, mother, and sister, and the other was treated the same with no desire only to get the "thin dime." But things began to change, and thanks to the change, the people were not so instrumental in making the old barber shop a tonsorial parlor. Seemingly the result of the change, the barber and today there is no place that a man has a greater desire to go to than a first-class, up-to-date, or the best-class, and the other is that they are newly born. Such a man who is able to do that is Mr. Clifford Clark, foreman of the shop at 31111, is now the first-class barber in the West. There is every convenience possible to share with the barber and today, and to save with sanitary towels, hot and cold water, shampoo, massage and manicure. All this can be done in the same way as the people are in the reputation to be the fastest, the nearest and the cleverest with the scissors and the razor is Mr. Clifford Clark, who is the only barber who has had finished the city several months ago he took Mr. Clark's chair and when he had finished the barber, Mr. Lewis, he is a powerful fine barber. What Mr. Clifford Clark is really, Mr. Lewis, he is a powerful fine barber. "If Mr. Lewis, or if you are soon to be a visitor, or if you are a railroad man or engaged in any walk of life that is not his business, he will be able to about the face and head, just drop in at 3111 and call for "Cliff" and we guarantee he will serve you to a great deal.

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 in its favor, than people who have tried almost every known thing for promoting hair growth, such as tonics, pomades, etc., with no tangible results, have found that "Gloss-O" only, will do what other things are said to do—grow hair. Since its discovery, a little over four years ago, it has taken the world by storm, and thousands of men and women are now living proofs of its efficacy.

The 1914 Tuskegee Institute commencement was the "greatest ever." George Ade says "A grouch lives longer than anybody else, because vinegar is a great preservative." We have no faith in a fellow who denounces a certain man as an "undeakable man, who next night sees him he is "cheek-by-jowl" with that same "soundrel." A well-intentioned leader should not be blamed for the mis-conduct of hangers-on, who insist that they are "friends," and trade upon their alleged influence with him. If there is to be a permanent colorific enterpriseing Negro to capitalize it. If a bad situation must exist, the wise man makes the most he can out of it. "Railroad Days" loomed large and lustrous in the history of the race. Through their accredited representatives in chorus for their rights as citizens and patrons of the lines of travel of the country. Their plea will be heeded. If you have "the gentle art of making enemies," change your course and learn to be a friend. A proper regard for the rights, pleasures and feelings of your enemies is essential. If the same the world over and every one can be reached, if you know how to rub the fur the right way. In declaring the New York Hans Schmidt the "greatest liar of the age," he risked doing rank injustice to some very capable talent around Washington and professional jealously among colored Ananias in various sections of the country. Considering the stellar part played by General U. S. Grant in pushing a war that led to the freedom of the United States, the greatest military genius are passed over all too lightly by the race that owes him so great debt of gratitude. In the next year and all the years after that? Col. Phil Waters, the orator and national chairman of the "regular republican state," said the new West Virginia car-load of new laurels as reading clerk of the recent Republican State Convention. He was his success, owing to a strong resonant voice and imposing stage presence, and he foot to have him named as one of the reading clerks of the next Republican National Convention. Just the tickt! "Phil" can deliver the goods. People who parade their necessities and are in charge of these items can conceal them, and givers who parade their charity are seldom as singular. There are occasions, therefore, when the "press agent" is out of place. "Phil" is the "real" agent, which essayed to start at Washington, failed to materialize. There was no demand for on-site press coverage, and jolleshers who came into the "scheme." The biggest fool is he who thinks he has all the other folks fooled.

Azafia Hackley, the noted prime donna soprano and lecturer, discovered a "Negr. Flk-Son" festival May 26 at Dallas, Texas. There was a chorus of 250 voices, led by seven soloists, with a male quartet, a female sextette, and eight directors of group singing. All compositions used were written by Negroes, including Cole, Widdy Taylor, Ebrigh Will, MacBook, and others. The Festival, which was an artistic and financial success, was under the auspices of the Dallas colored high school Mme.

Two of the most notable addresses delivered at the recent General Conference of the C. M. E. church at St. Louis were the fraternal message from the A. M. E. Zion church by Financial Secretary J. S. Jackson and the address of welcome on behalf of the citizens of St. Louis, pronounced with earnestness and hospitable spirit by Dr. Charles Henry Phillips. These orations set the pace for the conference and have been published in full in the official records of that historic body. Dr. Jackson's message was an exhaustive resume of the progress of Negro Methodism in this country and the relations of the denominations to one another. Both of the addresses are valuable contributions to the literature of the day.

It was completed and the N. C. Mutual and Provident, for its demonstration of solidity in time of stress, is stronger than ever in the confidence of the people. It has the brand of grit that wins.

In placing my own hair preparation on the market, I was largely influenced by a desire to help womankind generally as I have helped myself. This decided me also to price them moderately, and consequently my preparations are within the reach of all women who wish to be benefited from my large experience.

JUNE 13, 1914 MEMBER NATIONAL NEGRO PRESS ASSOCIATION The Italian who stole out Oma Lisa from the art gallery of Paris, France, says that he did it because it was taken from his country years ago. Is he a good patriot? Mayor Bell intimates that the saloons just broke out on Memorial Day all at once. Naturally got bad owing to the day and to the big event. Well, we guess we'll have to take his word for it. Having plenty rain which insures us the better things of the garden—green corn, melons, sweet potatoes and the rest of the berries. The most pessimistic ought to conclude that life is worth living right along through here. They tell the mayor that he will be restored to favor if he will punish the Memorial Day saloon offenders. He would have as much trouble in doing so as "Bring me the stone that David slew Gollath with," the new song. The preaching brethren insist that Mr. Bell fell off his horse that day, the day of the big show, the automobile race. Perhaps it would be just as well for the ministers to tell him to "go in peace, and sin no more." The colored people of Louisville, Ky., are fighting the segregation business. It is right because the thing itself is a civil iniquity. But they had better make it a two-eided sword afair. They should be not without that such things are not without reason. We do not insist that any reason is justifiable, but it is an excuse. Reduce the possibility of the excuse and such things will be fought down with greater success. When white men are unanimously against us we had best do some retrospection. Former President William H. Taft was in the city a short while this week. He was on his way to New Harmony, Ind., where he attended the centennial celebration of that community in company with former Vice President Charles W. Fairbanks. He made an interesting speech, showing that he was well acquainted with the history of that community of people whose influence for good is wide. The effort of a pleasant stay in Indianapolis, although brief, he said that he was in love with his work as professor of law at Yale. He said that he had to study hard to keep in front of the boys. We imagine a chorus of amens from the pedagogical fraternity generally. When referring to ex-Congressman Geo, W. Murray, last week, we said that he was one of the only two living Negroes that had been members of the national legislature. It was a mistake. Smalls, Miller, Lynch, Cheat ham, White and O'Hara are all living. And if they are as hardy, healthy apearing as Mr. Murray, they have yet a considerable lease on life. Mr. Murray is a fine specimen of the pure Negro, "black, but comely." He stands about six feet and straight as an Indian. He has reached his three score point in his years, slightly. He is of good speech, emphatic and enthused with his subject. A light smile lights up his face at frequent intervals, lending a grace and charm to his conversation. As a whole he is a blend of the older Negro and the new, making for a very interesting study. We say again that if the Mexican factions are earnestly interested in the best for their country they will let the Niagara Peace Conference decide for them. It is not ours to dictate to them, nor our country. But they profess to be patriots, all of them. Humanity declares against men who would see their comrades butchered to advance their interests, personally. President Wilson takes a broad humane view of the situation, being interested in that country's welfare and the peace of the occident where our country is of such large size that it be it Mr. Wilson or any one else, we think, feels a sense of responsibility for the peace of the two continents. In fact, the true patriot of the United States feels very much the same way, whether he is obscure or moves in the greater circles of men. We are proud of our country's pre-eminence and its somewhat guardianship of the western hemisphere. It makes for peculiar interest in all the quarrels and wrangles of the sister nations. We hold that it is disinterested further than the evolving of the best for the particular nations and for the nations as a whole. The sweet girl graduate and the interesting boy will now have opportunity to do real life after having done the school rooms. Of course some will keep right on, going to higher institutions, taking on more knowledge. The greater number, however, have quit the schools for good. One students to think of when they are bumping their knees when they are bumping the bumps of life. For after all life is most nearly that. There are long intervals between, sometimes, true enough, but the bumps are scheduled, and in due time, will meet the "can- didates" for life's experiences most "cheerfully." Perhaps it is not well to spread gloomy discouragement before those who are walking anew. And yet it is equally wrong to insist that life is rosette hued from beginning to end. Some philosopher advanced the idea that it would be well to suffer a little earache, but not a whole body, so as to be prepared for those supreme moments when pain and trouble descend as an avalanche. Others say never trouble trouble until trouble troubles you. This is that other extreme. We should be prepared, forewarned, to some extent for our probable future. Many of our own race will, with regrets, read of the retiring of Miss Nebraska Cropsey as one of the management of the public schools of Indianapolis. The colored pupils of our schools, as the whites ones, are scattered all over this country; they are also in foreign lands. Most of them coming to the schools as little tots, found Miss Cropsey, and when they were ushered into the great outer life they left her there. Their children and children's children had a similar experience. We learned to think of her as fixed, an unmovable part of the system as the school houses are. And as Tennyson's Brook, some might come and some might go, but she went on forever. Time waits for no man; but it seemed to wait for her, to minister especially unto her, persevering her, prolonging her life that the work be done that she was so well prepared to do. The citizens of Indianapolis owe much to her for tireless effort in making the schools of this city of the best. Other cities and countries owe much to her. Their representatives pilgrimaged here to set at the feet of Gamaliel, as it were. They returned to their homes, and in a manner, blessed in that they came here. WASTED EFFORTS. In his address to the graduating class of Columbia university President Nicholas Murray Butler said: "Probably the greatest waste recorded anywhere in human history is that which results from the attempt to do over again that which has once been done and found disappointing or harmful. If the study of history were more real and more vital than it is ordinarily made, and if it showed ideas, tendencies, and institutions in their unfolding and orderly development, and if the lessons of history so studied were really learned and harkened to, the world would be saved an almost infinite amount of loss, of suffering, and of discouragement." We might apply the above to ex- Congressman Murray, who in his scheme of Negro race redemption plan, holds that the past effort was all wrong. He is satisfied that no satisfactory condition can arise from the false premises. He says that we are through with legal, physical and per-haps intellectual slavery, but spiritual slavery remains. He would throw down our teaching and per-haps the lines of the spirit. He would substitute new ideas, theorems or what not, in the demonstration of the wasted past. He would remake us—destroy and build anew from foundation to turret stone. Yes, he has something to offer, but he will have to accept some compromises. The point, however, was in the elicitation of wasted effort. THE NEW WAY OF MAKING PROGRESS. Ex-Congressman Geo. W. Murray spoke at the Y. M. C. A. Monday and Wednesday evenings of this week. He i sinterested in the uplift of his people, and in the effort he has studied the race question from every viewpoint. He has it that he has made some discoveries, or, at least, found the remedy for correcting some ill endured. He contends that the race is yet enslaved, spiritually enslaved, and that until the new enamulation comes headway will not be rapid, if at all. However, this is an old truth, or rather an old assertion, but which fits well in what Mr. Murray would have it, the "new philosophy." He would have the race strive for Negro ideals, cherish them, rather than the ideals of the white man. This would be retroactive, so to speak, influencing the whole race in the right direction, he maintains. In his scheme of reformation the speaker hopes to destroy the ideals set up by physical slavery before making the effort to take on the latter-day civilization at its fullest. He calls this the destructive phase. He says that the training suits the slave period must be eliminated. It is not eliminated, he thinks, in spite of our present surroundings. He then suggests reconstruction and finally a constructive phase, when all the false situations and nations will have passed away. The ex-Congressman has worked out what may be called a pretty theory, and well fitted for a people who are well in hand of those fitted to deal out the instructions. If we were experimental communities, where each member was bent on self-improvement, having in view the improvement of the whole, his system would be wholly practicable, and when assurance from the people was lacking. As it is he will find it difficult to set aside the ideals set up by the white people in whatever direction. The race is not well in hand, nor will it ever be, nor, perhaps is it desirable. For, after all, there has been efficacy in the white man's ideals. Of course one blushes, often, to see our own race set aside by the race and thus consciously supporting the white man's ideals wholly. But as to the profit and loss in the transactions the race is on the profit side. Humanity says that the Negroes should have good ideals, and not have this respect makes room for Mr Murray's philosophy, the foundation stone being, that a race that, has no respect for itself can not expect the respect of other races. So the speaker's words are not without possible good. But as said before, he presents no new thing, nor anything not thought or said before. He has simply arrayed his thoughts systematically in opposition to those deeply imbedded hurting things, and which do serve to make vast the distance and differences between the races. It would not do to take all on of what he suggests for that would arrest the progress of the race, which should strive for the utmost. The white people would not care to see us evolving too much as a peculiar people for this would make our civil doom sure and certain. If we were alone, as said before, in communities, we would be foolish to surrender our ideals altogether for the purpose of taking on those of other peoples. And yet we should do that very thing in part under any circumstances. The Japanese, for instance, are taking on European culture, also the Chinese; yet in the main they cling to their own ideals. What they borrow and incorporate is for the national betterment. Perhaps if we should act somewhat on this line much of Mr. Murray's philosophy would be answered in the affirmative and the race in the meanwhile would be better. know Brunswick's ball team always come out ahead of any game.

They give the best of satisfaction as to our recommend, straightening the hair beautifully with one stroke, and as assistance in causing rapid growth. Evidences coming to us from every source, of which is pleasing, that the Eureka Comb performs precisely as advertised. No better comb on the market for purposes as we have been advised that other combs are toys, when it comes to benefits and effectual influences when used as to directions, for which every comb placed goes with it instructions how to use and for what purposes. Wherever introduced the Eureka is preferable. Merchants and agents are successful when they are placed conveniently in quantities for the public. They are usually sold for $1.50 (one dollar and fifty cents) each complete. The only thing is to be careful in the purchase, as there is no other comb that will answer the purposes so well as the Eureka. We wholesale the Eureka Comb, being the manufacturers and promoters, and are the only wholesalers of this special device; if there are othere we would be pleased to be informed.

A pair of Tans- ter whites, white in the bottom, Evans, ventilologist, Barrongs 1 to 10, and Ben Toledo more delightful to Indianapolis, more delightful to little presentation, more delightful to the colored paintings in her life. This lady lady lady spoke of bright, but weak spoken of bright, but fewly what she spoke of the patrons of the most finished, but could do. Per- formance is the most finished, but her boys. Her boys. Masters Jackson and Gattie Gaston, are a trio by birth. Theirrio is worthy by ten, by all. The audiences great appreciation of the In the duo, "Marry Me." Miss Burroughs and Jackson, are—seen to splendid advantage. She here displays all the graces she already has, including a beautiful voice, bowwitching movements, rippling laughter, all making for what has already been said of her. She is of age, and she wears very good clothes—a stage ideal as readily readly. Gaston is funny in his THE WORLD'S FIRST WOMAN TO BE A MARRIED WOMAN THEHERA BURROUGHS. (wench) characterization, singing "You'll Want My Love." They close with "The Kansas City Twin"—the trio, the band, the artist of her own design of dancing, dancing and so forth. In fact everything done by the trio is of her own supervision. In private life Miss Burroughs is Mrs. Marton Brooks, her husband and the author of that popular playlet, "The Border Lover." MORTON & MORTON Comedy, Music, Dancing. Ferd and Rose Morton are an interesting pair, who do a number of good taking stunts. Miss Morton is a wideawake performer, helping out the fun all the way through her performances. She is the satisfaction of the audiences who for some reason take very kindly to that kind of singing. Her voice is of good quality. Mr. Morton, "Jelly Roll," is a slight reminder of "String Beans." He does a plankogue in good style. He plays a A good piano, classics and rags with equal ease. His one hand stunt, left hand about, playing a classic selection, is a seduction. They do an amusing comedy bit, singing and playing both on a duo style. They make a hit in this, which is Morton's own composition. In fact he composes most of his own music, composing his other works in a comedian Morton's own in his makeup and sustains himself nicely through the work. They are a clever blend of styles. SAM EVANS Ventrilouquist. Sam Evans, our own. Sam, is back again among us after doing twenty weeks of Dudley's eastern time. After resting in the morning, we return to the evening. Evans comes back greatly improved in his line of comedy for his and himself. They talk along in a highly pleasing conversational way. Both get to know each other and forgetten as such, and becomes for the moment a real individual. This is made so by the interest Evans objects into his voice. His voice is lips are a feature. His voice calling from below in imitation of the devil is as good as may be done. This realism adds value to the comedy, and something worth seeing and hearing. BEN TOLEDO Juggler, Balancer Beno Tololo is a brand new one to the Crown Garden patrons. He does quiff a number of difficult balancing feats, including a jump off a table and forth on the blade of a sword. He puts a lamp high in the air on the end of a flexible whip. Perhaps his most impressive feat is kneeling on his head, kneeling to the floor, taking up a glass of wine in his mouth, drinking it all without the use of his hand. Some of his feats were accompanied with juggling. He gave a pleasing entertainment. The Darktown Follies, with Lubrie Hill, the colored Geo Cohan, is scoring a big success at Hammstein's two weeks ago, Johnnie Peters is one big hit in the show and as a dancer Hammstein audiences have never been able to review the show this week down stairs.

COLORED COMPOSERS CONCERT AT ORCHESTRA HALL-NATH- ERNEST A MOS APPEAR PATTI BROWN AND HACKNEY Lone Bert Murphy at the Grand Theater Score. It's not the cough. That's what Bert Murphy, late of Murphy & Francis said, when he introduced himself, to the audience. He sang about a little dog and carried a live puppy, Murphy has but one fault. He's sensitive. If he thinks he's hard, he is hardy. He is hardy aware that people wear a smile when they see him, but he too impassive to know why they are danced with the same agility that made him famous. Miller & Lyles, in a new book, were the actors were DeBars in deceptive illusions; the Four Frasers, in novel Scotch dancing and the Bonomona Arabs, good aerobic athletes. The second one remained unpleased. Cumby & Warfield, in a crop game overdone, but amusing, and the folly of junglers, in a rickling junglers; Livingston trio, in a rickling turn and Fink's circle circus, which returned, ever popular. Fridays will be filled with fun and短视频, song contests, during the summer. Butler and Johnson of the New Monogram Although Mr. Butler was a newcomer, his ability to be an amusing comedian was enough to welcome him with his well known partner, Miss Elise Johnson, who knows how to dress, look wet and play a part. Rosa Brown was another well known favorite, wib wob looked in pants and talked, but before she talked, Chemunt & Singleton, who are good artist cartoonists, were both attractive, and Kid Thompson was also on the bill, Charels Elgar, the violinist, has joined the orchestra. String Beans (Butler May) Returns: to the Monogram More Popular Than Since String Beans has improved by criticism, the lowly bewildered idol of unsuspected joy, has taken on a new coat and people in the audience, he got through every performance. And while he paid too much attention to the trap drummer, and people in the audience, he got through it, he was not a matte. Miss Baby Mack, who assisted him is a fine soubrette. Others notably on the bill were Seona MacMack, Frank Hendon, the "Stage Struck Girls," written, made his Chicago debut and was well received. He was full of humor and broader with more stage experience. His playing on the banjo and coin table were good and his newspaper burlesque gags were so much better. They could hardly seem to digest the humor. Henderson W. Bowens and Schiller Emerson, popular large cabaret entertainers, is a god tenor and Emerson, who is a light composer, showed some artistic cleverness, both as a player and singer, but also for the voice, a little heavy.

The new orchestra which is excellent, includes Erskine Cate, violinist Harriet M. Tomey, William Story, Clark Dunn, and Danny Parker, trap drummer.

Madam Bridges has opened her school of dressmaking in the new building at 5012 State street, with a ladies' tailoring and millinery included. George Reeves, trap drummer of the Monogram, was thrown from his new apartment, but he was pressed but his shoulder was dislocated and he was unable to play in the theater that night and on other occasions during the week. It was hinted that Reeves had to stop or run, but he was not known that the drummer is as yet an amateur cycler and a nervous marksman. Glosso, the new discovery which grows hair, manufactured by Mrs. Lola E. Grayon at 3825 State street, Chicago, brought so many orders in that she was compelled to place her advertisement back in The The resignation of Erskine Tate from the New Monogram, directly after Harry Johnson was cut off, created a gossip in musicians' circles. The committee, the corrected statement that when he was given only a three days' notice to be cut off he accepted a position at the Washington for more money. Erskine Tate stated that he was unable to control the list through Will Dorsey, the leader, who was unable to control the situation, he submitted another competent musician to give a week's notice, but after giving a week's notice he left one aband of time in order to secure the leadership at the Washington for more money. Comedian and Road Manager. The Great Eastern Force Comedy Company has closed its two weeks' engagement at the Pelih theater. The second weeks' offering, "Wife Wanted," was still a funnier farce than the other, built along farcical lines. Henry Drake, the comedian and manager, who called to bid me goodbye, is a young man of good quality and of pleasing personality, who will be sure to win his way to the front according to his merits, both personally and in HENRY DRAKE, HENRY DRAKE the show business. He is slightly sensitive of what a critic thinks of some parts of work undeveloped, but does not complain. He is also something more than a mere actor, but rather a progressive worker. His wife, Ethel Walker, is a good soprano, whose Walker could win out big in vaudeville alone.

All in one year. Cincinnati has a winning ball team, or one oneing, and the band is playing it. O how time has changed! It is a baseball, it is a funny proposition, with its thousands of ifs and loosening over booting! Have ready ordered a uug from Hong Kong, China, and a flag from Calcutta, India, ready made up and will present it to the home team on their return. "Pass the pillars and wake them up, Dream O sweet Dream, as it to the theatrical situation, as it to a different kind of dream. After these many years of roasting and toasting, the band is known the Negroes. Cincinnati is known the world over. Cincinnati has the reputation of presenting the noted song "Theatrical Producer: Henry Woolson, known as the "Black Diamond." This punk song brought up in the early days was of the mighty John L. Sullivan that had a chance to which the great fighter. That was the band's son. And all of this was before "Washington crossed the Delaware." But to day is another day, the day of enterprises of commercial business. From Cincinnati's lowly position of years gone by has changed, and is now about to be admitted into the ring of amusement world, New York, Chicago, Philadelphia and Washington. Cincinnati is away below in population of cities, but according to her population a showing must be reckoned with. Solution to this problem is just about to win action. Three places of amusement, six months ago a great yell went up: How can another theater live in the city? If these kickers had looked two inches tall, eight feet tall, eight white theaters on Fifth street, all within two blocks. Cincinnati has one hundred and fifty-six moving picture theaters, Newport and Covington. And pointing to the fact that there is only three theaters in the city that is almost Jim Crowed to the limit. If one per cent of the colored population attended like the whites, houses could not accommodate them. All the houses are located in the central part of the city, with every convenience. The building of this new theatrical colony speaks for itself, new era of prosperity. Be the first from your town to enter The Freeman's College Scholarship Contest.

"RUBE" FOSTER WINS SENSA TIONAL GAME. Old Time Vigor Exhibited by Veteran Ball Player—Wins from Benton Harbor by Score of 5 to 4 In Ninth—Hill, Barbor, Lloyd, Duncan and Monroe Fighting for Highest Batting Average—Ball Fans to Give Prize to the One Having High Average at Close of Season. (By Cary B. Lewis) CHICAGO, IL., June 10 — "Tube" Foster, king of ball pitchers, again showed the fans just how much he still "holds" for the team, feeling fine. The sun just baked down upon him, but this made him all the more apparent. The opponent was Young "Cy" Young. Of course "Cy" has a reputation among local fans that would fill a magazine, but the big odds are that he is giving him a good trimming. The Benton Harbor boys came with the expectation of winning the big odds and easily mistaken. As usual, the Glants believed in and have a principle of winning in the first round. Young Lloyd, "diamond Monroe," and Mr. Foster succeeded in hitting "Cy" registering likewise in the third inning. It was in the seventh, on a double by Hill, and a single by Lloyd. In the ninth, the third inning, he scored, but good fielding by Francis kept them from scoring. The score: Am. Giants. R. H. P. A.E.

BULL SNAKES NECESSARY FOR THE "WILD CAT REPRESENTS." The director of the Eclair studio at Tucson, Arizona, has been on a still hunt for the last few days for forty bull snakes, a strange sort of property to be sure, but they are absolutely necessary to the filming of an O'Henry study on the Wildcat Represents," which the Eclair players are making at the present time. In a scene of this picture the leading character, "Wildcat," breaks up a lynching party by turning forty bull snakes loose among the "necktie party" and with his customary desire for the atmosphere and realism. The Eclair director will have nothing but the real article. Thus far he has managed to gather in three of the writhing creatures and it is a notable fact that all of the players around the Tucson studio are giving the boudoir of the snakes a wary eye and a wide berth. A large amount of fun and excitement is promised to all those who witness the taking of the scene in which the bull snakes will take the leading part. STAR THEATER, DALLAS, TEX. This is the fourth week for the present company at the Star and each change of program brings a first class, fun and entertaining performance. Davenport and Davenport show a clean up in Skunktown is a great favorite in Dallas. While his pretty fashion sense and his gulful fowls, Bill Bailley, the clever dancer, seems to be just as refreshing today as the day he opened. Miss Wilson, the cheerleader the cheerleader artist, is still scoring success. Joan Heart, the dainty dance soubrette, is always pleasing. May Wilson, the dancer who has made a new song or two that please her, Gloria Smith, the droll talker, comes in for his share of applause. Princess Sharon is on the bill and between her and Davenport, being produced to the satisfaction of everybody. There are twelve of us in on the show and there is room for more to write and Grisha Thelm write at once; long engagement GIBSON'S NEW STANDARD THEA TER. PHILADELPHIA. That exuberance of youth and that spontaneity that is so effective when an actress possesses it in abundance carried Ray Bailey to a brilliant vaudeville success at Gibson's New Standard theatre this week. She was ingenious and of cumulative interest and was received with much enthusiasm and was obliged to respond to a number of curtain calls. Pete Hampton and Bowman always have new and bright material. They have originality in singing songs that are original, and the repartee and the by-play that are the backbone of the act are always "smart." The singing of "Dat Melon On De Vine," bringing down the house. Johnson and Baylor won much approval especially in singing "Oh, Wouldn't That Be a Dream." Venable, Owens Trio sang good. Smith and Hatch were decidedly entertaining and Chicken Jones and Lena Wilson in their song and dance rounded out the show. NOTES FROM A RABBIT FOOT COMPANY. (Freddle Pratt.) We are meeting with great success during our stay in old Kentucky, and the results have been far above expected. The}}}_{ to an audience of about nine hundred. A large bunch came over from Madisonville, where our Gold Band was sent by a speeding expert. I gave a thirty minutes' concert received, and gratulations on all sides, and returning to Earlington at 2:45 p. m. We found a large crowd awaiting our arriving. We were so excited that an enjoyable day meeting many friends and especially Mr. A. J. Duncan, Ph. G. and proprietor of the Park City drugstore were. We were very excited to see the new event being a new gentleman. Our manager, Mr. F. S. Wolcott, and Ralph Redmond, band members were so excited to see the new famous Georgia Minstrels.

Capt Dick Anderson, why don't you write? GOING JUST AS BIG AS EVER— LAJOY AND BAILEY IN SA- VANNAH, GA. Savannah, Ga. Mr. Elwood Knox: Dear Sir and Friend—We write you to let you know that we are still on earth and that we are going just as big as ever, and we can honestly say that we get ours without smutt. We are working some territory that is really hard, especially for high-class acts, but we are getting ours, so you know the answer. If you didn't get 'em, you'd closed a successful two weeks' engagement at the Pike Theatre. Mobile, and Mr. P. J. McNiff says, "Keep in touch with me. I wish we could get more clean acts like yours and less 'Ball-de-Jacks,' so my advice to performers is to wake-up and do something." We opened at the Pekin Theatre Savannah, Monday, June 6, 1914, and can say without exaggerating that we got ours and was in good status. We are building a new act, Italian, which we intend to stage soon, thanks to "Bob Russel" and his act. There is no doubt but what it will be a winner. Will send you photo of the act later and you can put the cut in your very valuable paper. You can put it to us, and we would not be without it, for it has made many dollars for us.

However, our fears were soon vanished, the men having disposed of their several pieces of luggage, prepared for the return of the time, and served the dining-room by the same determined look that so strongly characterized the appearance on the job. But after being entertained by Mr. Baird, our efficient steward they came out wearing the smile that won't come off.

A Most Wonderful Industry-Hints On Scenario Writing and Acting. (By Hunter C. Haynes, of The Afro American Film C. Co., New York City.) It is an undeniable fact that moving pictures are one of the greatest ten inventions of modern times. The development of industry is now a subject for writers in newspapers and magazines of every kind. I fear, that the Negro does not have the same moving pictures has meant to them, or that it is going to mean in the future. In the middle ages miracles and mystery plays of the church, or the case of a accomplished man or a case ofular religion. The moving pictures can do the same thing today if given a chance at home, it can be scorned and frowned upon and called taboo. It may, however, be welcomed and unlifted and be made a mighty agency in the general deep and contemptuous study of the future possibilities of the moving pictures, brings to light a new school of actors unspoken language. It is much more difficult to act before the camera than on the stage. It is not so easy to conceive of a movie of joy, misery, love, hate, envy, regret, and grief solely by the expression of the face and by the movements. The actor or actress who can act or pantomime on the other hand, of laughter to the eyes of the audience, may look forward to a bright future, as they will be the required by the moving picture firms. The remarkable and rapid growth of this industry has also opened another field, and that is scenario writing. At the same time, the ability to have all the ability of a playwright for the legitimate stage, added to that, he has the ability of producing the story—keeping the clear and unfagging—without the assistance of written or spoken words, the entire action must be unfallingly precise. For example, a scientist's scientific photography—the sort of scenery available. A scenario, for instance, which requires the use of a ship or a constant source of light. For a foundering of a steamer would be useless to a director whose "props" did not include such a ship or constant source of light. For a scenario writer should always consult the director of some moving picture concern regarding such props as his ship or constant source of light. For a strategy to secure permission to watch a few plays staged, so as to get some idea of the technicalities. These are the director's responsibility, in harmony towards the whole, and in have part been responsible for the increasing popularity of this new art, which has opened the eyes of the world. Taking these figures mentioned as a guide, makes it evident that there are many genius minds in the work either in methods, or perfect the new methods, or introducing new ideas. This is the day of new masters in the business ethics of this world, the head handchief and the "candle light" ideas have ceased to play any important part in the business ethics of this world, and the swiftest epoch of the world's progress—in the age of incredibilities come true. We are now able to hear our friends in Paris by squirting a little spark from a pole on one shore of the Atlantic to another pole on the other, and to course that which our grandfathers would declare a miracle. To the Negro who has money to invest now in the moving picture industry. HELENA. MONT. Special to The Freeman The Busy Bee Club and Auxiliary of the M.J.

London and Paris Interested—Indians Play Colored Champs in Prison—A Game of Interest and Fun. LONDON, June 5 — Six thousand sojourners deposited in the inn at gold ever deposited to the inn at gold ever deposited were posted in the office of the Sportsman's information for the approachman between "Jack" Johnson and "Sam Lance" Johnson, over over over Austin, representing the elite promoting the fight. He was accompanied by a uniform who closely guarded six bags, each containing weapons. The money represents Johnson's share whether he wins, loses or draws. The United States friends of Jack Johnson who were visiting during the money. It looked, once, as if the champ was going to have difficult sledding even after he had escaped. The money came his way, to some ex-communards perhaps for good. Very little has come from Paris direct from Jack Johnson himself. Dojust not believe that he may never be known. Silence, one would think, is discretion, since he has no knowledge of welcome amid the crowd, whether he attends as expected or not. But history of his life from Reno up until the Moran go up to the attractions of the city. A biography would allow nothing of his life to escape. I can conceive of no more fascinating stories than what was done so as to merit the title. Not only would there be a retaliation of interesting facts, but their inspiration would be the rights of men. Then with Chicago, New York, London, Paris as the backgrounds in the main included in the book, it would be some book. Perhaps the story of his life too well told, as Hugo might tell it, or Balzac would not be able to collect the rights of men, but the theme we forget nationality and think of the individual. We exchange change plans, we are aware we are all in and at our vicarious suffering. Harriet Beecher Stowe was such a writer, who could arouse the very rocks to mutiny, as Shakespeare has I am going a little strong, one would say, may be, and without my bearings well in mind. Well, just read this latter-day repentant, a white sport written. When one considers the big smoke's educational shortcomings, a fair resume of all the hullabaloo about this "white slave" stuff makes it very apparent that this is a big stumbling ground that may be in the newspaper accounts. Just as plain Galveston levee roughest, who found out he could fight and then got rich, his behavior has been no whit worse than that of many. The Chicago or Washington nation who made his pile in steers or steel instead of in the ring. "It is not in the books that he ever used a pistol in his love affairs. I'm like that maizun's and the Alized and the second time I've been that a famous steel magnate used on a stage beauty that broke up his home. The steel magnate was never indicted. Johnson deserves at least an even break." Each of these works, the work. In spite of what we may do or say men know the truth when they see or hear it. According to report both Johnson and Moran are training hard. Moran and Moran are training hard. I have been putting in my hardest licks with Kennedy, of New York, and I expect to have a Kubak in my camp for the last three weeks. I am the second to see I am in fine. Johnson is not a bit uneasy in spite of talk that he is going back, getting out of it. Remember the date, June 27, at Paris. They have high old times now and then even behind prison walls. A few weeks ago the prisoners of a California institution had a game of baseball beatingmates. The game had all of the features of the clubs that play on the outside, including a bow-bearing the ball, a bow-bearing the player. He got in a mixup with a pitcher, coming to high words. They unimpressed soon as he got out of prison he was going to beat him up. The umpire told him that he would have great difficulty in carrying out about three years before he did. Last week the Indianapolis, a big league team, played the colorado team, and the other follows are the champs of the two teams, the other being made up of white players. Warden Thomas mustered up a worthy audience—just 1,600. Those games are when the games in Indianapolis when the audience is from 800 up, can imagine what a "gang" of spectators they sore. One of the top players can think about so many persons that not worthy of guide—sermons in stones. But hear on the Indianapolis Star, on the subject. "It was not so much the game as the demeanor of the audience and the black men who were playing against the other Hendrick's team that was in a different way, and you can, and the prisoners considered the droggs of who, a manity sitting entirely around a ball field of generous proportions, cheering mostly at good plays, hooting at the unscored-good-natured. It must be said, and for the means of played by the average fan to "get the goats" of the visiting players. Such was the spectacle presented this mornin' and the men who were permitted to be the game made a false move, not only but the more the thorough appreciation of the treat afforded him. Furthermore, there was official scorer, one of the publishers of the Prison News, who kept a box-score and a line of conclusion, the contest, said rather wistfully: 'I wish I could see this team of yours playing in a regular game.' " The writer moralizes a bit more than the manner: "And who can in truth say that the opportunity has to be the game he did, when he has to help to make him a citizen amenable to law. I am a leader when he does regain his liberation," the hope—if for no other reason—has may be permitted ever afterward to be used as professional ball And when Tommy Griffith hit the bat, dear over the wall that detains these worms from associating with those of us, they have not been placed behind it, have not been more than a couple of laughter when he flanked, shortstop for the Giants, cried out; LEVI AND DENVER OR LIFE CAN'T ALWAYS BE APPLE BLOSSOMS (BY Billy Lewis.) 'Dear child, I'd like to be a 'ridin' dab ball!' It was pathetic as well as humorous. A pretty story, big with sympathy. It suggests the song, 'Like As a Father Pititit His Children', etc. Our national mime may not prove to do so very well, but it is not judging by the intense interest of the 1,600 prisoners it it were like the sowing of the seed. Some may have fallen among those men returned to their foully stirred. First, at the big hearted, thoughtful warden who made measure possible.

Five thousand dollars is a mere trifle to a man who has licked Willie Ritchie. So Charley White, a local lightweight, $25,000, meets Milburn Saylor in Indianapolis July 4 and will take a flier at vaudeville. CHICAGO—Charles Balke of Los Angeles, a motorcycle racer who has won many races throughout the country, was killed in this city June 7 when a crash involving six miles an hour crashed into a steam roller on an exhibition track here. His neck was broken. Gunboat Smith has engaged Bob Armstrong, the colored heavyweight, as his sparring partner. Bob will prepare Smith for the latter's bout with Carpenter. Battling Davinsky, New York, knocked out by Smith in the seventh round of a ten-round match in that city June 6, with a right to the jaw. Davies weighed 198 1-2 pounds, while Davinsky was twenty-six pounds lighter. The West Baden Spruedels shut out the Memphis Giants out in the last game, and the West Baden June 4, 11 to 0. Score.

An eye witness to the trial of the Shamrock IV, Sir Thomas Lipton's vault van ran away from Shamrock III as a grey hound would from a Boston bull pup. The date of the Wille Ritchie-Freddie Welsh bout for the 'lightweight championship in London has been postponed from June 30 to July 4. All competitors will be in attendance, in with the bout have been straightened out, according to the manager, guaranteed in New York. While Ritchie has consented to fight Freddie Welsh for the 'lightweight championship in London, the round trips tickets, the match to take place in England on July 4, Roy Vernon representing the ingress, the round trips ticket, the bout and received a telegram demanding double the price. LONDON.—Gunboat Smith, society leader—that's the latest stunt here of the American fighter, who is to meet Georges Carpentier, French champion for twenty rounds in London July 1940. The gunboat, flanked by a quick larger, was a jamsick by his manager, held a big reception in the ballroom of the Waldorf hotel. The London papers treated the affair as a serious function and society reporters by scores shook the hand of Gunboat, which called him dreamland punch. The star of himself in excellent shape and promised to win over Carpentier by a knockout. Speaking of the baseball game in the Columbus, Ohio, prison last week between the colored team and the Indianapolis league team, the Uniteds were the only one to be at the prison there. His team was one composed of Gentlemen and the Team, one composed of White men. To the credit of the blacks it must be said that their Giants are the superior team and it was with them that the Indians clashed. The Giants put up the article of ball that would have done credit of any good semi-professional team in this part of the country. Going into the game with an abiding feeling that they were outclassed, they THE PAPER SAYS JOHNSON WILL FIGHT THE FOURTH SATURDAY AFTER THE THIRD WEDNESDAY AFTER THIRD WEDNESDAY FRIDAY AFTER THE FIRST MONDAY THEN WHAT WILL PARK CHOPS BE WORTH?

Otherwise the Tribesmen would have found tougher opposition. PARIS, France—"I'll be the same Jack Johnson who went into the ring at Reno, Nevada," he told Jim Jeffries, when denying with warmth here that his bout with Frank Moran, on June 27, would be a hippopotamus.

NEW YORK.—With a big pocketful of American dollars and the agreement to play in the league, four rounds in London on July 4, Fredrik Welsh, lightweight champion of England, sailed June 6 on the Imperator. Ritchie will follow Welsh on Wednesday in London, where he will play in He was to leave Chicago for New York today. The battle will be staged in London, the home of the team. The boys will weigh in at 135 pounds at 2 o'clock. The end of the argument came along last night when Bob Vernon, representing the promoter, placed a certified check for $5,200 with Billy Gibson. This goes for the staging of the team at $200 for Ritchie's attendance to this city. Ritchie is to receive a guarantee of $15,000 for fighting, $10,000 for his share of the moving pictures picture $10,000. Ever since Ritchie won the title from Wolgaet, Welsh has been after him for many years. He has played in Angles some time ago in a twenty-round bout and Welsh received the first two titles in the rankdfd in Ritchie's bosom and he always declared that the first good purse he received for meeting Welsh would be about the match. This is the good purse. Ball players who care more for their batting averages than they do to win ball games are soon discovered. They seem find a place with a first-class team. Frequently they are able to conceal their temperament. But as soon as the ball is in play, ball players have been beaten, go into the shower bath, laughing and singing and then yell out, ball players have any self-respecting manager will either impose a fine or look around for a trade. They play during batting practice players will start in panning the pitcher who is warming them up. It's almost a certainty this pitcher has too much confidence. But a player the hitters are afraid to stand up and bat. They like to shoot long and terrific liner to the outfield so the fans can see the ball being put into the dope on the ball they are lucky to lay down a dinky grounder. Aw, why don't you send in somebody who can locate the plate," they snarl. KNOCKED OUT KID FIELDS—PRE PARED TO DO IT AGAIN. Sporting Editor of Indianapolis Free- Dear Sir--I saw in your paper (The Freeman), of March 19th, that he called himself the colored featherweight champion of the world. He also states that he has had six victories, and the fellow that defeated him is afraid to fight him again. I wish toate the sports jumps he made. One of the one who defeated Fields. I knocked Fields out in eight rounds in January before the West. I fought him by the Marquis of Queensbury rules (clean break) at any time.

I will wish to state the facts concerning my win with K. O. Ed Harrison, of Indianapolis. I knocked out Harrison in one game and I will win. I won on a foul. I wish to say that am not one of those dirty fighters. I mean to win all of my battles by clean play. I will say that I am a clean fighter.
