Dr. Washington Missed.
Dr. Washington. It was two years ago that the writer had the pleasure of visiting Tuskegee attending the Farmers' Conference. The first person missed. The second, the very air of the Institute testified his abstention. In reviewing the process and throughout the exercises the farmer body could but miss the great educator. On every hand you could hear the name of Dr. Washington and the spoken of with reverence. They missed his promptness in heading the line and his presence in carrying the sermon through the beginning of the exercises Sunday and all through the commencement season. It is a practice of the graduating class through the campus, "Aud Lang Synne." Many evenings while they were rehearsing the line of the sermon had so often presided at all other commencements and who so much enjoyed the senior event. The students at the very thought of being without him. As far as carrying out the general program service in this particular and everything in its place and everything on the spirit of the institution. All the exercises had the characteristic snap of Tuskegee. The same kind that has been witnessed out of the sermon to introduce Dr. C. B. Willmar, rector of St. Thomas Episcopal church, Atlanta. He delivered the sermon to a public meeting. He referred Dr. Washington at a public meeting. He referred common sense and good will."
Commencement Program
commencement the commencement program dealt with the rural school. While every graduating student spoke nevertheless his discussion on the rural school, showing how the people on the farm could self in working on the farm could use a given trade for the improvement community through the rural school. For the first time in the history of Tuskegee Institute, the two commencement speakers having highest honors in the school could attend Tuskegee faculty. The salutatorian Ms Chrissia Mae Scott, daughter and Charles A. Gibson Jr., son of Charles Gibson, chief accountant of the Institute, addresses were fine and elected crest.
Immigration Exercises
Innervation Exercises.
The afternoon exercises are used to commemorate the general demonstration of as many industries as could be staged on the chapel plateloading or slowing of a number of students' care on just as they go to work every day, wearing a uniform or work uniforms. At the sounding room, the enterterior or the work. The blacksmith proceeded to a horse, which was also on the plateloading or enterterior of the horse's teeth. A woman on another part of the stage was cooked, milked, another was washing a whistle, another was milking a penter was roofing a house, students from the canning factory were putting up potatoes, another milked a cow, and another twenty old industries. This marked the beginning of the afternoon exercises of the students' part of the program on the innervation Exercises.
After the singing of the "Anvil Chant," the institute choir, the innervation Exercises.
Formal Address Made:
Dr. Hollis Burke Prissel, principal of the Hampton Agricultural and Industrial institute, made the first formal address of the afternoon. Dr. Prissel has been principal of Hampton Institute since the death of General Samuel Chapman Armstrong, under whom both Washington and Moton were
trained. Dr. Frissel was a teacher at Hampton Institute during the time that both Washington and Moton were purchased. Dr. Frissel paid an eloquent tribute to the principal-elect, and prophesied an administration which should seek to carry out the methods which had been so successful in an operation by Booker T. Washington. Dr. H. T. Kealing, president of Western University, Quindar, Kas, spoke on behalf of institutions for colored youth. Dr. Kealing is one of the most successful progarro race, and he lived up to his reputation in the address delivered today.
Mr. Moton Presented.
The principal-elect was presented by William G. Wilcox, of New York City, and the principal-dent of the New York City board of education.
He is greeted as he rose to speak with enthusiastic applause which came from students, teachers and the large number of visitors present. It seemed because Major Moton is not only well known at Tuskegee Institute, but has been considered in a way as a part of the curriculum. Moreover, he had been at Tuskegee Institute for the last week or so working among both students and teachers and had come to consider him as one of the Tuskegee Institute big family, and had well adopted him by the time he was principal Moton's address was listened to atentively. He pledged himself to carry out the policies inaugurated in part as follows:
Enthusiastically Greeted.
"While the outlook was never more hopeful, the Negro problem is not yet solved," said Major John H. Johnson, an environment in the fact that seventy per cent of the Negro population can read and write it safely to assume a job position, the percent that people can really and truly educated. Our progress in this country has been wonderful and we have shifted from a shiftless, disease, inefficiency and crime are entirely too prevalent among our people. Color and conduct still count in this question, but let us reemphasize that conduct counts more color.
Major Moton reminded his hearers that the name platform Dr. Washington spoke on the importance and value of teamwork. "If teamwork was necessary in the society, we would be Washington," he continued, "how much more imperative it is now that we have not and presence."
Must Maintain Same Spirit.
"If we are to be true to the great and sacred trust," he continued, "If we are to carry out the aims and purposes of the church, each cherish and maintain the spirit which has always permeated the life and work of this school—the spirit of the Tuskegee Normal and Industrial Institute and sacrifice—the Tuskegee spirit—the spirit of co-operation and consolation. It is only in this spirit that the Tuskegee Normal and Industrial Institute to the Negro to the state and to the nation."
Major Moton was selected to succeed Dr. Washington by a unanimous vote of the trustees' board of trustees of the institute in New York on December 20 last. In making the choice the committee referred to, the force of action was the same. He was born, Amelia county, Virginia, in 1867, and spent early years on the Vaughan plantation in Edinburgh. The county was mother was poor and the house father led the hands on the plantation. He was sent to Hampton Institute in Virginia to attend a drill-master and assistant commander of cadets. In 1890 he commanded, a position which he held until his election as principal at Tuskegee.
On the eight thousand persons attending the exercises there were 700 white people, and among them, some of the most prominent personages in the state and the South as well as
Prominent People Present.
Chicago Party There.
There were at least a hundred prominent persons composing the Chicago cage party and about the same number representing Hampton Institute. The former was composed of the following Chicago party—Dr. and Mrs. George
INDIANAPOLIS, IND., SATURDAY, JUNE 3, 1916.
THEY WERE BOYS TOGETHER!
There's a saying, "TRUTH IS STRANGER THAN FICTION," and the following reminiscent tribute to a fine character and UPRIGHT JUDGE, the Hon. William Fenimore Cooper, of the Chicago Bench, furnishes a graphic and interesting proof of the saying.
Said Editor Manning (and The Freeman offers no apology for reproducing his tribute complete, as published in The World of last week, but is glad to do so):
"The World presents its many readers in the city of Chicago this week, a splendid likeness of Judge William Fenimore Cooper of the superior court of Cook county. It is a pleasure to say that the writer and Judge Cooper both are natives of the "Old Dominion"—the state of Virginia. We were boys there and were practically reared together. Some thirty years ago we lost trace of each other but recently on a visit to Chicago I found that Judge Cooper was none other than the boy, William Fenimore Cooper, that I knew, but had lost track of some thirty years ago at Washington. I was converted early to the doctrine of the late Horace Greeley: 'Young Man, Go West.' Preceding Judge Cooper I came to Indiana. He later came West and located at Chicago. After arriving at Chicago he started in the battle of life with a strong will. Being an astute student he took up the profession of law. After becoming thoroughly trained he entered into active practice as his life's chosen work. He continued for several years and built up a lucrative clientele. He was looked upon by old timers as one of the brightest young men at the bar. Thus he attracted the attention of the legal fraternity and was put forward as a candidate for judge of the superior court and was elected. Since then he has so conducted his court and made his rulings just what they should be—justice and equity being always his motto—that he has the highest regard of the people generally and is held in no less esteem by the legal fraternity of the Cook county bar. Will Fenimore, as he was familiarly called by us young boys, was a boy whose heart was always on the right side. And he knew from the start what this world's struggles meant. He was one boy WHO KNEW NO PREJUDICES. Race, creeds or nationalities made no difference with him. He today is a splendid type of manhood that has developed a strong character in spite of opposing environments. Judge Cooper today represents in the court the stalwart friend of the struggling unfortunates. He is ever a believer in the axiom, 'All men up and no man down.' It is unnecessary at this time to say that the writer longs to see the day when this able man and good jurist will adorn the bench of the highest court in the Nation."

Special excursion trains were oper-
ated from Montgomery and Opelika. More than 400 promised to wear uniforms and women journeyed to Tuskegee by automobile to be present at the commencement and graduation of the or thirty cars left Montgomery early Thursday morning for Tuskegee. The annual exercises in Montgomery school were held Monday evening. The Trinity church Boston Prize Contest was held Tuesday morning and were representative Tuskegee white citizens: Dr. L. W. Johnston, Frank L. Wardworth, and S. W. Wardworth were awarded $25.00 and awarded to Bernice R. Higbee of the "A" Middle Class; second prize, $15, to Helen A. Taylor, of the Senior Class; third prize, $25.00 to the contestants for these prizes were as follows:
"The South Harnessing Her Waterways," the Negro Preacher and the Country Church, "Alabama Must Feed Herself," the occidental preacher, "Iliteracy—Let Us Remove It." These speeches were simple, earnest, and eloquent and dealt with
subjects with which the Tuskegee student is familiar.
The Senior Class day exercises were held Wednesday night upon the broad steps of Tompkins Memorial Hall, the grounds. Students were invited. No more satisfactory place could be selected for such exercises, as the young people of the Senior Class sat above the audience in tiers. More than 100 individuals were present, William presided, for diplomas, agricultural certificates, trade certificates of one kind and another by Emmett J. Scott, secretary of the Institute on behalf of the faculty.
Everybody Plained.
Trustees, officers, teachers and students of the Institute were very much pleased. Henson and, the important Southern white friends who were present at the inaugural today, were spoken words of welcome to Principal Moton and pledged the continued interest of the best

WOMAN'S BEAUTY ONE OF HER BEST WEAPONS
The Effort to Look Well Is not Vanity
—A Duty to Preserve One's

Rochester, N. Y., May 16, 1916.
The Freeman, Indianapolis, Ind. ;
Gentlemen—In reading over the editorials of your paper of May 6th I was greeted by a group of young girls going to the contemporaries who appear to be "cut up" because you carry so many hair advertisements. Are they really interested for the benefit or are only considering their own selfish ends. While we are comparatively new advertisers, we are also answered a number of the "adv." that you carry and we wish to state for the benefit of some of our readers. We've got our money's worth from both. For the sake of an argument I would like to ask this "Champion of the Rock Race" a few questions, as follows: If you were a woman would you not desire a compliment to look upon? A skin remarked to look upon? A skin remarked to its soft, velvety, babe-like texture, free from blotches, scars, or wrinkles. A like a furrowless forehead, a line free face. Would you possess hands and arms that attract by their magnetic
Neglect a garden and it will run to weeds. Neglect your hair and combed hair. Neglect your scarf, blotches, pimples and will fade in no time. Cultivate a garden and it will bloom with exquisite flowers and will be a place of beauty and complexion and they will rival the bloom of the rose and the lilies, while your lips will be luxious as new picked flowers. It is the same whether it be the hair or complexion. I believe a woman is justified in ushering in good looks and the love of those that are dear to her.

Justice Hughes is a sort of political Verdun to the Colonel. Will he take it?
The preliminary of the forthcoming Republican National Convention indicates a time that will be worth the money to see the melting pot of the G. O. P.
The Broad-Ax of Chicago surely lives for the benefit of Rev. Dr. Archibald James Carey one way or the other. It appears that the Windy City is not big enough for the two of 'em.
A pamphlet has been issued by the "regular" delegates to the Chicago convention from Louisiana, calling attention to the past history of some of the members of the protesting delegates. After it is all over such reading will be rather difficult to forget.
Yes, we need a theater in Indianapolis for Colored people which meets every demand. We have considerable pride in some things, about others we are not so particular. That makes for a peculiar people. We do not want to be a peculiar people, but a regular people, up in all respects. Call it a coliseum of flesh, not to touch it or brush. We need a first-class amusement house that is up to the last minute. We can get it. But will we get it?
The Daily Christian Advocate, speaking of the selection of Rev. Dr. A. P. Camphor as missionary bishop for Africa, said that it was a striking incident in that it fell to Bishop Thirkield to introduce the bishop-elect, who was an early graduate of Gammon Theological Seminary. The presiding officer stated that Dr. Camphor wrote the first hymn for Africa in the contest under the Stewart Missionary Foundation for Africa, and was the first Negro missionary to go to Liberia under Bishop Hartzell. The same week the Rev. Dr. W. W. Beckett was elected a Bishop by the General Conference of the African Methodist Episcopal church in session this month in Philadelphia. Bishop Beckett is also a graduate of Gammon Theological Sen. inry. Dr. R. E. Jones, another graduate of Gammon, received a large vote for Bishop in the General Conference now in session at Saratoga Springs. It will be of more than passing interest to note that many of the leaders in the Colored Conference of the church, as well as in all the Colored churches in America, graduated during its early years from Gammon Theological Seminary, and under the presidency of Bishop Thirkield, of which, for the first two years, he was the only teacher. Seventeen members of the M. E. General Conference were graduates of Gammon Theological Seminary.
If it is doubted that Tuskegee is to play an important racial role the doubt-will be dispelled by a glance over the names of important personages who were present at the inauguration of Major Moton as the successor of Dr. B. T. Washington. Among those present were: Hon. Charles Henderson, governor of Alabama; William G. Willcox, trustee, New York; Charles E. Mason, trustee, Boston, Mass.; Julius Rosenwald, trustee, Chicago; William M. Scott, trustee, Philadelphia; W. W. Campbell, vice chairman board of trustees, Tuskegee; R. O. Simpson, trustee, Purman, Ala.; Belton Glipse, trustee, Birmingham; H. I. Moseley, trustee, Montgomery; M. Mary E. Popeh, trustee, Hampton Association, New York; Dr. Hollis Burke Prissell, principal, Hampton Industrial and Agricultural Institute, Hampton, Va.; Miss Mary E. Wooley, president, Mount Holky College, South Hadley, Mass.; Charles Ellis Mason, of Harvard University; Dr. Allison A. Prigine, representing University of Pittsburgh, Pa., and Cox College, College Park, Ga.; Ludwig T. Laren, Talladega, Ala., College; Dr. T. W. Palmer, Alabama Girls Technical Institute, Monteville; Prof. N. B. Young, President, Florida A. and M. College, Tallahasse; James L. Sibley, Reuben F. Koll, Walter F Walker, Secretary to President of Republic of Liberia, Monrovia, Liberia
Where is Lieutenant Henry O. Flipper? This question has been asked many times by those who knew of him a quarter of a century ago. He will be remembered as the last Negro to have graduated from West Point. The ear-splitting episode at that institution in which we think, another Negro cadet was principal, tended to check the enthusiasm of Negroes for West Point distinction. At any rate, Flipper is the "Lost of the Mohicans," as it concerns Negro graduates. He is not dead, as many have supposed. He is in Mexico, and doing quite well. He has held important positions in mining companies, and in which respect he proved so valuable that he was retained more than once by companies that were successors to others that failed. He is not Villa, as some have thought. He says that he has no connection with any of the Mexican factions, insisting that it would be a most unwise thing to mix up with any of them. To use his own words: "I know Mexico and the Mexican people thoroughly. I have not lost my five senses or any of them to the extent of taking part in an upheaval in that country. I can conceive of no contingency under which I would
fight the United States. I am loyal through and through, because no man born in the United States who knows Mexico and has an atom of intelligence, can be otherwise, as between the two countries."
AT CHICAGO.
It will be a very wise individual who can come anyways near guessing what the National Republican convention will do next week when it meets at Chicago. It is hardly necessary to say that the present great war is a thoughtful victory; the outcome is a Progressive party, and which is camping right in sight of the big show. That party, while nearly disintegrated, is well enough together to prove a Republican necessity.
The Progressive party is already dictating terms, and which the Republicans must to some extent heed. Perhaps, this may be in the sense of the tall wagging the dog, since it is clearly known that that party is in a moribund condition. But it is live enough for mislefth at that, and the Republican leaders, being aware of the fact, are particularly polite to it.
Col. Roosevelt and his immediate followers are not after Justice Hughes because the Justice is leading without having run the risk to have gone wrong on the "preparedness" question. This is the war phase that enters the campaign. The Colonel had the nerve to ask the very beginning, taking a chance at winning or failing as it concerns the amprobation of the public.
Hughes' apparently big lead is his only weapon of defense so far. It is this that so exasperates the Roosevelt people. In the meanwhile Hughes remains the same old sphinx and, per haps, will stay so until it is all over. If he should win the nomination he is taking a big chance. The election is to follow. We are not such partisans as to hold that an individual should give up such a snug and important berth as Justice Hughes has to become a presidential nominee, or even to become a four years President. The justice is regarded very kindly throughout the union, but it does look as if the situation was hard pressed if he alone can relieve it.
Our own candidate, Charles Warren Fairbanks, is logical, being without adventitious aids by way of "preparedness" expressed extraordinarily, or the other thing of "golden silence." He is for a prepared country sufficient to protect it, and at the same let free the idea of militarism which is so repugnant to our profound peace-proof people. He is for all the gerat good things that make for a great country, and that makes the real mad at Chicago get real mad and lock horns the truth will out — — the selection of the most available man regardless of personal preferences. It was so at Baltimore when men got mad and told the truth, nominating their best asset—Woodrow Wilson. On this occasion it will be Mr. Fairbanks in event men grow mad enough to sacrifice their favorites in order to win over those of other men.
MAJOR MOTON ON THE JOB.
The new principal of Tuskegee was installed in his position last week amid the most auspicious circumstances. To state it this way seems to be an effort to dignify the event, giving it a rating that does not follow the usual inauguration of school principals. And to be candid, that is just what we are trying to do, to give class to Major Moton's installation in that he is entering on the duties of a big office. This is true whether the new principal wills it or not, and regardless of the varying views concerning the status of Tuskegee, made so by the efficient activités of the late Dr. Washington in the affairs of this country.
The Freeman has been accused of being a Tuskegee partisan. It is not necessarily so. We are partisans of the truth. We recognize it when it is seen no matter in what guise it appears. Tuskegee is destined to play an important role, perhaps, more important than has been dreamed of by any man. What the outcome will be cannot be known at this time. The role may be essayed with a disastrous end, but it is to be played nevertheless; and if the late principal's faith in the new was not misplaced it will not prove recruit to the trust. If one is inclined to doubt that Tuskegee is not to be a sort of racial empire, why was the little ejectment incident set out in big type in the great newspapers of the country? One publication had this very attractive caption, "WIFE AND BROTHER OF TUSKEGEE HEAD EJECTED FROM CAR."
This happened at Troy, Alabama. The educator's wife and his brother, Blanton Moton, on complaint of white passengers, were asked to leave the Pullman car and go into the coach provided for Negroes under the Alabama law. Major Moton advised against their idea of taking the Pullman car. Our point is that in giving the peculiar publicity by way of attractive headings that it is in the nature of an open letter to the new principal, and which throws on him the responsibility of a stand, and which will be construed as the status of Tuskegee in racial affairs, at least, as it concerns this one phase of the race question. Plainly, Captain Moton is to be drawn out. In fact, he has already expressed himself as to the incident, saying that he did not advise his wife and brother to take the Pullman coach.
What would Dr. Washington have said as a matter of principle? It is by no means certain. This, however, that he would have set up some plea that would have lost him nothing in press. He would have said that this respect he was the modern oracle, answering satisfactorily to all demands.
Without waiting to hear what Major Moton will say we class the incident with all others that seek to minimize the standing of the Negro race. Law is law, and to be law abiding it is our duty to observe the law. However, we may arraign the law. Old "Bumble," of Charles Dickens' fame, said that the law was an ass. We say that when it does not meet all alike as contemplated by the spirit of our origination it is proscription and not law. This is our general observation.
On the other hand, we are not so wedded to our idol that we fail to see that the straight application of the laws as best understood, in some instances, as times, in possibility, in human construction.
We ourselves, the Negroes, are learning that there do exist causes for vast social gaps. Many of us endure what we would gladly escape if we had anywhere to fly. This is a sort of painful truth, one that will not do to be preached every day. The prepared among us, protest this admission but they, singularly enough, are the ones who would do the flying if possible.
What, then, is our stand? We insist on discriminations acting alike, setting aside the low and base of either race, from the genteel and careful. In such an event we can have no just complaint of being special subjects of discrimination even if the spirit of the laws are violated, in that there should be no manner of discrimination.
tration of Dr. Phillips, one of the leading young physicians of the city. We shall not normally close Tuesday, June 6th, when Dr. S. W. Crosthwait, B.

A Negro who has lived in Mexico has been telling the United States Negroes of the beauties of that country for members of his race. It stands to reason that Mexico is more inviting, owing to a few things, than our own country. But after all the question resolves to this: Do the advantages of Mexico with its greater privileges outweigh those of the United States with its lesser privileges?
And perhaps that would not be a fair way to put it, because we are not cut off from doing anything we may desire in this country. This may not entitle the whole truth, but it is practically true to the truth that the exceptions in no manner interrupt but few of our efforts, if any at all. The Negro referred to had in mind the well-known race discrimination. He said:
"I remember some years ago at Culad Patrifrio Diaz (a town opposite Culad Patrifrio Diaz) a soda fountain operated by an American white man. I am sure he had been able to bluff off some Negro Pullman porters and others, but knowing that he was reported to have stepped to the door and with three claps of the hands brought in a police officer, he was reported in jail the next day, Monday, and his license was cancelled forever."
Of course it is impossible to think of such discrimination without a feeling of resentment. We endure that kingship and it troublesome except in thought of the possible mischief it would breed.
Many a Negro has made his money because of the restricted condition of his race then kicked because he could not spend it in putting one over his racial fellow beings—the same that nut money in his nurse.
Admitting that one may drink soda water with impunity all over Mexico and do other things accordingly, one can still ask the question, does it make Mexico a better home for the Negro? We admit that our discussion is rather academic, being of no earthly good beyond showing points. However, since the country is more Mexican and to the disparagement of our country, it is not amiss to show up our advantages here and which we think will outclass those of Mexico in spite of its civil and social latitudes. It is all right as an argument to offer anything of truth whether relative or absolute when a point or object is to be gained. If we can use the seeming advantages of Mexico as a club to beat out better consideration at home it, perhaps, would be justifiable, this, on the theory that everything is fair in love and war. But when the reality, the whole truth, to speak the truth, the whole truth—nothing but the truth.
We say again that we, the Negroes of America or unparalleled by similar race groups anywhere in the world. We admit the danger of such a wholesale assertion, having in mind the thought of damming up our hopes for the perfect day of things, by an easy acquiescence in whatever presents. And yet there is just as much danger of heading off our own growth by studiously or unwittingly denying the known advantages. There is no way of knowing what is the better process of acquiescing to the enemy's advantages and advantages. And since there is doubt we view it best to see it as it is—to tell the truth.
As a matter of advantages Mexico is a desert when compared with the United States. It has not much over which to be jealous. What America, the United States, has to offer may not be the cause of its jealousy, but it stands to reason that the feeling is actuated by the possessions. If one goes into the homes of the well-to-do he will notice how the possessions are guarded. Some great homes are barricaded by great iron fences through which one must peep if he views the rare plants. To see the rare treasures of the home is an impossibility except to the select few. It is not too much to say that in chief affairs it is much the same way. Those who live in the homes, screening them from "vulgar" eyes are, often, quite as loathe to issue any of the good things incident to civil life to those of the ranks. The question, naturally leads on to socialism, some men standing for wealth in common in order to arrest an enveloping wave of aristocracy.
Our trouble is that, and more, belonging to the set that is begrudged good things, and sufferers also owing to thing of race aristocracy, making our war the most difficult to successfully wage. When Mexico has as much to offer by way of race culture, wealth and opportunity, it will be time to compare it with the United States in the matter of advantages. Its advantages are relative, based on its poor possessions, its undeveloped people, its heterogeneous mass, its polyglot citizenship, its poor civilization. We prefer that to this United States idealism knowing that wherever there are various races there will be no common standard of consideration, especially as it concerns our peculiar standout nationalism, will choose a new law rather than the substance. Mexico is not a standard nation, and conditions cannot be gauged where there is no standard, or between countries where the values are wholly different. A house in the country is not of the same value as the same house in the city.

TAGGART'S FIRST SPEECH.
Senator Taggart of Indiana celebrated his first appearance in a senate hearing last fall, taking those of his colleague who oppose the pork laden river and harbor bill. He announced that he would vote against the measure unless he was produced by $15,000,000 or $20,000,000. However unaccustomed Senator Taggart may be to the methods of the federal government, the department of the Federal government, he was not deceived by this raid on the treasury wearing the familiar disguise of a bill to promote the com
The river and harbor bill carries $43,000,000, the expenditure of half of the budget, and the authorization of public funds, accomplishing nothing of benefit to the nation and merely supporting the officers. The opposition to it is nonpartisan and nonsectional. It has been criticized for its lack of man of South Carolina and the Mr. Taggart, Democrats, and Senator Smoot. Its strength is derived from the logrolling which characterizes its make-up, by which the support of the bill is reflected in the whole bill through the inclusion in it of items desired in the district he represents, fought by those members of Congress who put their duty to the nation above the schemes of constituents, without regard
Senator Taggart begins well. If he is always on the side with which he now fights he will be a useful senator and a credit to his state—New York Sun.

In 1898 he wrote the Walters' Manual and in 1899 organized and was elected president of the Head Walters Association of New Jersey. During the campaigns of 1900 and 1904 he was employed by the Republican National Committee, as organizer of the club, for which work he was highly commended. He retired in 1908 as head waiter and the Cozart Hair Cream Company and barbers and hair dressers supply agency. In the Presidential primaries of 1912 he served as the President in Atlantic City, beating the local machine. He joined the Progressive party as soon as it was organized, and at the time he joined the Roosevelt forces and again carried Atlantic City. Returning to the Republican party in 1915 he was elected a Republican member of the Republican Executive Committee. At the presidential primaries on April 25, 1916, he was elected a Roosevelt delegate to the Republican convention, which included 14,000 white and 7,000 colored Republican voters, his opponent being a rich glass manufacturer. He is the first colored man to represent such a position in the state of New Jersey.

Being Played at the Lafayette Play House This Week.

Special to the Freeman,
NEW YORK CITY—(Special)—In
producer of the great play
Fountain's, at the Lafayette Play
house this week, the Elite Amusement
Corporation is drawing attention to the
amazing talent of the American
colored actors in the field of
dramatic art and in this production,
one of the most important American
artists. They are giving
great New York public both colored
and which, the opportunity they see
and judge, will help them grow from careful study and hard work under the judicious direction of Mr. A. C. Winn. The story told in play is
wonderful strong and wonderfully in-
spirational.
Nes, Charles H. Anderson, as Jane Reynolds, is ideally suited both in charm and beauty. She remains the charm character, and this in the play revolves around her.
Jane Remedios is between 25 and 30 years of age and she possesses a certain middle class country girl might have in contradiction. She is undoubtedly proficient and has a certain grace and charm of demeanor, in even moments of disconcert. She is combating a condition that is objectionable to her, and an instrument on innate faculty which readily distinguishes her from the other woman, Mrs. Col
Her dress is very plain and very much worn in the first act, but what is lacking in dress is overwhelmingly unpleasant. You must not be made in this play that the woman is sinfully inclined nor must be beaten to her husband. In the first two acts it develops that she is a creature of expediency rather than one of high ideals or purposes, the bacteria that must be contained in her vision and is rapidly spreading poison through her whole structure of the body. It is no more important the average woman by no unthinkable extravance and unusual demands upon her husband's power of production, it can be done by her being driven by one of debters—not the debtor who by an assumption of credit promotes success and negotiation, but it can be done by her being driven by one of debters without any possible hope of ever squirring himself with the world. She is a girl of keen intellect and realism, she feels that the responsibility of the world and the manner in which it is conducted rests really on her. She must face that the mad rush for position and comfort that these women face fairly combat the conditions of life should take full advantage of it.
In the third act she is absolutely convinced that her advice and her husbands will succeed, and that it is even past criticism, and it is only in the emotional scene at the end of the act that she awakes to the reality of her situation. If it is legalized or whether it is done in defiance of the law, that statutory limitations of human liberty exist in the country and the presence of the Divine Hand, so much as by those seeking material aggrandizement, and she realizes that honey can not combine with human honesty, in its last analysis when not coupled with great talent or genuine is under the same slavery from which there is no escape, and after all her husband in his failure to become a thief and trickster is—it is a successful pass through such a condition and find themselves surrounded invaluable but otherwise unable to accomplish the last act must in itself show the great revelation which has come to Jane and at the death of her husband, the final error she has made.
John Brand, as played by Clarence Moore, a new member of the Lafayette community and mentally. He is scrupulously almost imposingly clean. He is very hard to attack, a tough speech that concludes her enterprises in the lower end of New York at the age of 33 or 34 and of New York at the age of 33 or 34. Her attack, speech that throws one of her opponents good fellowship which covers up his knowledge. Brand belongs to a class of methods of chicagorian and manipulational progress is not impeded, but is often given the privilege of working for somebody else, society has fulfilled all duties. With him it is a divine act, in all this play he never believes that he is transgressing on the moral and community ethics he is in touch with. He is a stand inked by Reynolds as one of the wisest sin he can conceive of.—the worst sin he can conceive of.
as is played by Miss Deny George. Her hair is parted and brassied in two braids down her back, and is brushed such a section her forehead. She is such a section or two a week, and then feel that was being cheated. Her appearance is flattened. Her gown is plain callous. She is not the usual well-knew servant.

C. L. / ERICKSON PASSES AWAY
MR. C. L. ERICKSON'S DEATH A SHOCK TO MANY COLORED MUSICIANS AND PERFORMERS.
On May 20 at Ellsworth, Kan., Mr. C. L. Erickson departed this life as underwent for appendicitis, Mr. Erickson was owner of the well-known Virgil Set show. He also at one time had charge of the E. H. Jones World Renowned Alabama Minstrels and received that Mr. Erickson has always furnished employment for anywhere from forty to one hundred dollars considered the most liberal manager in the business as salaries were always would pay and he did not only promise—he paid. Not throwing any reflection or performance, man will agree on the above that ever worked for him, and the re-employment profession has been shocked at the reports of his death. Both the Virginia and Georgia Smart Set Minstrels are undergoing an agreement of experienced managers together with Mrs. Anna Simpson Erickson, wife of our lost friend. He was at his home at Warren, Pa., on May 24.
With a world of sympathy for Mrs

BILLY KING SCORES AT THE
GRAND.
In "The Matrimonial Agent" and "Bills From Alaska"—Dotson a Superior Dancer.
There is so much in matrimony and so much to it that Billy King and his wife have to get the fun out of "The Matrimonial Agent." When King enters, everybody laughs, except the very few who know the name of the man those who have to go home early, go out laughing. "Never Let the Same Man Screw You," the song number. Mattie McIntosh was an interesting agent and the rest of the team had no plot and didn't need any. The stage was set in order and the music was invigorating. Dotson, the black man, was formerly of Dotson & Gordon and when the team first appeared at the competition, the son to be the greatest dancer in the business, and last Monday evening he showed his work to be superior, which named Mosher, Hays & Mosher in a good comedy act with bicycles, and a wood & Gorman, whose act was fair.

Billy King was a hot member last Friday when he heard that Billy Mills, from Alabama, had playlairised his comedy, "Bill from Alaska," and was producing it by a small inferior company at the Old McDonald's day night at the same time of the King production. When Mr. King heard the show and also notified his attorney to prepare to take proceedings against him, show and also notified his attorney to prepare to take proceedings against him, grams. Then he hurried to the booking office of Manager Martin Klein, where he showed Klein his copyrighted comedy.

In our new song, "What Will You Do, Uncle Sammy?" one entire line was omitted by a mistake of the proof-reader. It is here corrected: Chorus.

Will you protect the old Mammy and mothers and brothers, too?) You ask them to show their allegiance And fight for the Red, White and Blue; If they help win the fight, Will you give them the right? Will you give them the right? Ask of you.

Successful theater managers are always courteous to their patrons, and they employ the best employees are likewise. It is almost impossible for a show to please a patron who has had an argument at the box office, but successful Colored play-houses told me that he played no favorites; meaning that he accorded the same polite treat to everyone. He was well behaved, as he gave to the richest man in town. There never was a time when the managers of the plays or the employees come into contact with the people, placed such a high value upon courteousness. It has well been said: The polite behaviors of society." It would be well for us all to keep on hand a liberal supply of oil, and it is cheaper than gasoline and there is no danger in using it.

At the conclusion of the death scene, where Othello murders Desdemona, and where Desdemona disguises herself with her own life, many white women found use for their handkerchief. Will no doubt be interesting to read what three of the leading white dallies of Pharaoh's country attempt to about a Colored company attempting legitimate acting.
NEGRO PLAYERS GIVE "OTHELLO"
AT THE WALNUT.
(From the North American Whistle-blower performance in this city of a Shakespearean play by Negro players occurred at the Walnut Street Theater last night, when Edward Stuart was engaged an engagement of one week in "Othello." Just why these Negroes, in what justly should be called a contribution to the Shakespearean Tercentery, should have chosen this dark tale of the creduro Moor, whose tragedy would them there are several other plays which could be more readily molded to their purposes. The play which was selected—just as many modern plays are selected—to dress the person of the "star" congenial to the play, Mr. Writhe made of the most it. His work as Othello was constantly in the work

foreground last night from the histrionic point of view. There were several other members of the company who were more aware of the highest and most serious type. Otto Foster as Cassio, John H. Ramsey as Iago, Elmer Leon Payn as Roderigo, and Margaret Brown as desdemona, were the most consequential on the whole, however, the production proved effective entertainment last night, particularly in the light shades which with the piece is at times endowed.
(From the Record.)
Otto Foster made a very creditable Cassio, John H. Ramsey, who essayed his work on the subject during his lines motionless in his long speeches, so that he appeared to be making addresses to the audience. Margaret D. Browne, a nunna. Others in the cast deserving of credit were Joseph Alston. P. A. Macdugal, Albert Snell, Oliver Foster, E. L. Payn, A. H. Whitman, B. Butter and A. W. Bradley. The piece was well staged.
(From the Philadelphia Enquirer.)
A performance of "Othello," commendable from many points of view, not only the presentation of a Shakespearean play on any Philadelphia stage this season, when the tencentery of the death of the poet is being so extended by the audience, but the Walnut Street Theater by a company made up entirely of Negro playwrights, young men and women, of whom have had a wider experience in acting than others, but it was evident that approached with sincerity and intimacy with seriousness. They are deserving of praise for their courage in undertaking such a task at a time when some professional men and women that Shakespeare does not spell ruin, as has been proved in more than one instance in New York during the past few
The play was sufficiently well-staged and at least there were not found those images that were printed in the last Shakespearean performances given at the Walnut several seasons ago, when portions of the pictorial scenes were printed in England farmhouse views presumably left over from Denman Thompson's ultimate production of "The Old Homestead," which was continued today, with matinees today, Thursday and Saturday.
in the selection of her vaudeville offering, for she made her principal effort to create a melodramatic playlet of theatrical life; however, Miss Rush as Virginia Forrest, indicated in the emotionalism of her work, the measure of acress she is able to take in her performance, a pretty fair company which consists of Ollie Burgoyne, Dekoven Thompson, Edward Thompson and Alonzo Fenderson. The play is a surprising brilliancy, considering they are not in the true sense of the act, but in the sense of seeming convincingly natural and yet the reaction of every thrill is a laugh which is just a little annoying. The play is also during the more serious parts one should restrain his mirth; but the construction of the act is so consistent, the audience is so enque and natural, and the plot moves actively with such conviction that the sympathies and responsive appreciation of the audiences are demonstrated outbursts of laughter or applause.

When the great H. & W. Circus reached Youngstown, Ohio, a committee invited the entire audience to visit their rest and the lodge turned the entire beautiful rest over to Lowery's Bands.

Dal Hawkins Met the Best Boys in the Ring!
Sometimes Beaten, but Always a Drawing Card—Met Gans, Erne and Many Others.
NEW YORK, May 27—In that part of New York known as the Bronx and, more specifically, the Bronx canyon of Westchester, there is an insider known as Cannon's old house. The present bonfire of that house of call is to answer to the firefighters of Dal Hawkins. He is to the fight fans of the rising generation as the proprietor of a camp favored by many stars of the race in New York, preparing for the race in New York. Frank trained there for his argument with Willard and many another pugilist wide renown in the old roadhouse. As a fighter Dal Hawkins is known to the younger old man, he remember him as one of the old huds who ever mixed it in in the squared circle. A fighter was Dal and a boxer, a punching man of which he seldom wrestle in so small a man. Hawkins featherweight, but he fought a number of the best lightweights and, though it defeated, he was versed.
Ap. Apt Nickname.
"Tiger-Eye Dal" all of the fans used to the ferocious little ring warrior, and it was an apt nickname. Dal's lames were like the optical optics of the big ever of the jungle, and no niger ever glared more ferociously than Dal when he was aroused. Dal pale, his hair was over his brow, and in a wicked sneer, and his eyes were to flash venom at his opponent. A terrifying sight! Dal's Tiger-Eye Dal, who faced him in combat, and Dal always lived to his reputation. When Dal was used of the contender the fans were always sure to see an exhibition.
a meticulousism is entitled to sit in the parter of the Native Sons of the Golden West, for he was born in San Francisco some 45 years ago and his first professional white wicket. His first professional wicket was about twenty years ago that Dal fought the first of his sensational battles with the Hawkins was defended the victor. The following year Dal met another remarkably clever colored boy and fast rounds to a draw. It was in the same year, 1897, that Dal got into the limelight by pushing off the shot and hitting out fast rounds out Martin Flaherty in four seconds at Carson City, the bout being a feature of the tournament in which Bob Diximus the heavyweight boxer Corbett.
His Famous Left.
Harkins won that speedy victory with his famous left punch, a blow which looked to spectators to be a more delicate distilled essence of the poppy. No other fighter in history ever had a more deadly punch. Dal declared he first jumped up the dark. The last step was farther than he thought it was going to be, and he got an awful jolt, although his feet trembled. He got the same sensation by sitting in a chair which is lower than one thought it was. Dal experimented in an endurement of his own punch, and at last he succeeded. His famous left-hand sleep-producer was a wonder. He would slow-extend his punch, and at last he sued a foot of his opponent's jaw. Then he would put his strength back of a peculiar twisting, downward-curving punch. If he landed squarely with two twists it was usually good night for the fox.

DELBOT TEAM CAPTAINED BY A
BIG LEAGUER, WENT DOWN
JUST THE SAME
CAGO (KAGO) — (Special) — Schorling's bike of the Half-Time—Aternoon—the crack bike of the Deloitte, Wisconsin, came down here they were, feathers all cooked because former third baseman of Army Chicago, former third baseman of Army Chicago, went back down the league. But they were news to the folks in that Badgerville ball team. "Culled folks' have some ball team."
In 1898 Dal went to New York and was matched with Spike Sullivan, the Irish lightweight. It was a vicious attack, and Dal was knocked down when the Hibernian landed a knockout Dal's next battle in the metropolis was with Kid McPartland, now a boxing referee in New York, and this time he got knocked out. He was in a third round that the Kid was stopped.
Hard Bout Wlth Erne.
One of the most sensational of Dal's battles was staged in the Woodward Pavilion at San Francisco early in 1898. Dal faced George Layne, with George Layne, the lightweight champion, was Dal's opponent. The Buffalo boy was one of the cleverest of the players, and he game and durable. A majority of the coast fans thought that Dal had it on the Easterner and backed their judgment. In the first round it seemed that their opinion was justified. The Hawkins left floated out, innocently, as if to push aside Erne's guard, but then came that day when Erne was like a load of bricks. He scrambled up with little time to spare and backed away and covered before Dal's feroculous rush. It seemed to be about all over the field, and Erne began the second fresh vigorous time on Erne kept orcing the race, faster and faster, and although Dal had fewer equals as a mixer, he got more. Erne fell in a trivial in vain to get over another left. In the seventh chapter Erne landed a victory in the thin that knocked the Californian cold.
Knocked Out Carrig.
After these two defeats Dal defeated Otto Slioff and Jim Popp in Chicago, he defeated Jimmy McCarthy, Francisco, where he fought George McFadden early in 1901. McFadden, known as "Elbows," was one of the cleverest of the business, and he evaded David's left and won on a foul in the seventh round. That bout practically ended Hawkins' ring career. In 1902 he defeated Perry and engaged in a successful engagement was knocked out in the fourteenth. He fought Perry again soon afterward, and was again put to sleep. He was knocked out in a draw with Jerry McCarthy, but was knocked out by Jack Clifford. The old punch was gone and Dal, at the age of 65, was neglected to the ranks of the has-beens.

Jersey City Ball Club Downs Orientals
By Count of 5 to 0.
It is taking the combined efforts of nine hard-hitting fast fielding, dark skinned sons to put Jerusalem in the game, and they are doing so in a manner filled with both snap and vim. Playing before a crowd of 6,500 fans, the Cubans 'look the hard way' to win the Haiti win into camp last Sunday at the West Side park by a score of 6 to 6. Hungo's triple with the bases full in the first inning gave the Cubans a 10-0 lead.

FOOD FOR FANS.
Cannon Ball Redding shut out the Royal Giants in the first game of the double-header last Sunday, holding them to five hits.
In the second game the Royal Giants hit Cyclone Joe Williams for fifteen hits sending the Lincoln Stars down to 2. The Lincoln Stars carried off both of their double headers, defeating the heiress Mike Donlin's All Professionals 7 to 2. In the opening game of the season the Jeffersons defeated the Lincoln Stars,
Charleston has certainly made a big difference in games at Lenox Oval. With the bases full of power, the team enth inning Charleston ran back to the center field, left center and made a wonderful one-hit victory. The ball was going over for a home run. Santop made his first appearance behind the bat on Sunday when he hit two games. Top has been playing left-handed since he has been hitting the ball on the nose. A team known as the Cuban Stars was playing on Sunday, but for some reason or other did not appear. The Lincoln Stars has certainly performed wonders with the team at Lenox Oval. Starting off with the team at all, the Lincoln Stars at all, the Lincoln Stars looks like the best team in the east.

To Make Good Cigars
Two things are necessary: Good tobacco and skilled labor. If either of these qualities are inferior the result is a poor smoke. The reason why our R. L. W. Cigars are satisfactory is simply because we carefully select and inspect every leaf of the tobacco and employ cigar makers who know their business. We will ship you a box of 50 of our R. L. W. Cigars postage prepaid on receipt of $190 Practice economy in buying and send for a box at once. State whether a blunt or Perfecto shape is desired.

Beautiful Bust and Shoulders are possible if you will wear a scientifically constructed Bien Jole Brassiere. The dragging weight of an unconfined bust so stretches the supporting muscles that the contour of the figure is spotted. put the bust back where it be- tended, and the bust will have the appearance of dab- biness, eliminate the danger of dragging muscles and confine the bust to shoulder giving a graceful line to the entire upper body. They are the daintiest and most serviceable garments imag- al—come in all materials and styles: Cross Back, Hook Shoulder, and the rustless boning—permitting washing without removal. Have your dealer show you Bien Jole Brassieres, if not stock- ed, we will gladly send him, prepaid, samples to show you. BENJAMIN & JOHNES, 51 Warren Street, Newark, N. J.
