Fagot, Jr., a state conservation agent on August 30, last year. Fagot was killed by an un- known party who fired at him from the bushes. Blood hounds were brought from Mississipp! and took up a trail which led through swamps bayous, and through crowded streets, and fin- ally landed at the home of Haw- kins who was asleep in bed. Hawkins attempted to prove an alibi but the evidence of the blood hounds was taken by a jury of twelve men. Hawkins had money to fight the case and will now spend the remaining years of his life on the State Farm at Angola. William Bojangles Robinson, Stages Successful Benefit for ‘Toby Joseph’ The one and only William (Bo- jangles) Robinson. acclaimed on two continents as the greatest liv- ing single, added one more mile- stone to his imposing total of “Suc- cessful Benefits” in the interests of deserving persons. Little ‘Toby Jo- seph’, barely fifteen years old who treked the torturous journey in Cc. C. Pyle’s Cross Country Mara- thon from Los Angeles to the big town, was the lad who benefited fin- ancially via the route of public adu- lation for one man, the like of which this writer has never seen equalled. The lad finished out yf the money, and ‘Bo’ realizing that he had staked all for the sake of a crippled father, unhesitatingly and in his characteristic manner, thought upon the benefit plan. Rob- inson, worked like a trojan in or- der to put this project over, and it is only fitting and pioper that we pin the garlands upon his breast now while he is able to in- hale their fragrant odor, rather than to wait until he is cold in that sleep that each of us great and small cannot escape. A Durant au- tomobile costing $1100 originally F. O. B. was given to Mr. Joseph through the good offices of the hero of our story for the sum of Five hundred ($50000) Dollars. Some of those who contributed other than by their attendance at the wonderfully successful Benefit last Tuesday night were: Casper Holstien, a 500 gold and diamond medal, and one hundred dollars cash. Wilam Holsey, Fifty ($50.00). Al Brown, famous little boxer Twenty-five ($25.00) dollars. After purchasing the car, Robin- son, personally saw to it that the balance aggregating close to six hundred and fifty ($650.00) was giv- en to the Josephs in $250.00 cash and $400 wired in addition to the sums donated here above enumer- n (Continued on page 15) Beautiful Daughter of Hon. Walter L. Cohen, Comptroller of Customs, New Orleans, La., Shocks Society When Ship of Matrimony Runs on Rocks. (Special to Tattler) “Heaven has no rage like love to hatred turned.” All society is agog with exciting rumors since reports have been cir- culated of the seperation of Mrs. Camille Cohen-Jones, the beautiful and prominent wife of Oscar D. Jones from her husband . The charming Camille as she was known in the innermost circles of the Windy City’s exclusive set was one of the greatest moving spirits in every line of endeavor pertain- ing to polities, civic and social strata. Like her illustrious father, the umicable Camille possessed a most unique power of leadership wher- ever she mingled which she exer- eised with remarkable agility and always proved overwhelmingly suc- cessful. During the last Presential Cam- paign in 1924 Mrs. Jones demon- strated her prowess of popularity and regale exhibitions while she was connected with the Republican National Committee in charge of the Bureau of Information in the Wrigley Building at general head- auarters. There she met and came in contact with the leading men and women of affairs both white and colored. who idolized her in every particular. In fact she was one of the most conspicuous per- sonalities there during the cam- paign. She again proved her mettle as a social leader when she organized the Louisiana Club of Chicago com- posed of the pride and flower of the Creole population of the old French aristocracy of New Orleans. It’s membership was incomparable in scintillating beauty of charming femininity. Mr. and Mrs. Jones came to Chicago about six years ago, bring- ing with them Mrs. Jones’ daugh- ter, Yolande, who is now the wife of Paul E. Johnson, the electro- therapist. Coming from such a dis- tinguished New Orleans family, Atty. Bert McDonald Appointed Deputy City Prosecutor Los Angeles, Cal.—Marking the first time in the history of the sttate that a colored man has re- ceived an apointment from either city or country administration, At- torney Bert McDonald has heen appointed Deputy City Prosecutor of the city of Los Angeles. The appointment was made by Dr. E. J. Lickley, who has been city prosecutor for the past two years and who has been recently empowered by the City Council] to appoint two new deputies, owing to the growing demands of his of- fice. In making the appointment of a Negro, he stated that growing of racial] groups in the city, during recent years has made liberality and breadth of viewpoint neces- saty to represent all people of this great city, and that he was making it strictly on the merits of the peo- ple in this metropolis, - Bad Manners and Showmanship T° the dismay of her sister cities of the late Confederacy Houstoon has given Southern hospitality a black eye. Having assumed the cole of host to the Democratic National Convention the citizens of the fair metropolis were expected to hang out the flags, kick the lid off the speakeasies, fumigate the bawdy houses and otherwise entertain the delegates from the North and West in the lavish manner for which the South is justly femous. All reports agree that the good burghers of the town prepared the minor amusements for the visiting politicians in a way that would satisfy even the most captious. But when they began to rehearse the big jemboree they had planned for their guests they could not contain themselves. They took the darkey they had caged up for the occasion and lynched him for their own diversion. This is an unpardonable breach of ettiquette. The behavior of the Houston gentry is comparable to that of a man who, having invited friends to dinner, eats heartily of a chicken dinner before they arrive and serves his guests soup and crackers. This is not only a display of bed manners but also bad showmanship and it is to be hoped that both will be speedily ard appropriately rectified. Governor Dan Moody should publicly apologize to the convention, and the Houston Chamber of Commerce should reflect that the Northern and Western delegates are already familizr with such diversions as roller coasters, pajama parties and bathing beauty contest and offer them some distinctively Southern entertainment of suitable novelty. If the Texans fail the delegztions from Mississippi, Florida and Arkansas should get to- gether and organize themselves in an impromptu program committee and provide the right kind of amusement for their guests from above the Mason and Dixon line. It would be a snappy idea, for example, to bring in a barbecued dinge with the Dry plank and distribute bits of bone and gristle while unanimously voting for law enforcement. Something must he done to maintain the tradition of Southern hos- vitality. ae ; ¥ y A , 3 il i. aii eee Mrs. Camille Jones she made an immediate impres- sion upon Chicago and was much sought after to use her _ intelli- gence and great energy in public affairs. She became a big influ- ence in organizational work of a political and social nature, so that almost all “movements” found her an active supporter. In addition to this duties this service entail- ed, she found time to continue her work as a concert singer and as teacher of foreign languages. Little had been thought or known of Mrs. Jones’ husband, a quiet, homeloving man who, until last year when Mrs. Jones left, had not been much discussed. Upon her return, he came more and more in- to public prominence as a friend and pal of Roscoe Simmons and was much seen around political headquarters. It was learned that he rather passively objected to in- terests which kept his wife away from home so much of the time, and that this desire of hers to be on the outside and of his for her to be on the inside was the begin- ning of a disagreement which had such an effect on Mrs. Jones that she dropped in weight from two hundred pounds to one hundred forty. This loss of weight occa- sioned much comment among friends of the couple, and was at- tributed by some to ill-health and by others to the taking of electric treatments. It is now known that Mrs. Jones believes her worries brought about her loss of weight. From New Or- leans she has just written to a friend that she is now gaining weight, that her “eyes are bright- er, skin is clearer and, on the whole, is looking to the good.” When her father returns from Kansas City, she will go with him to his summer home in Bay St. Louis, and will spend a couple of weeks in Convent, La., where her mother was born. It is possible also that she will straighten some religious angles at Convent. Mrs. Jones is a Roman Catholic. A friend of Mrs. Jones in Chi- cago says: "TI don't believe that Camille will be bothered hy what publicity there may he regarding her reason for leaving “O. D." He fears it. Realizing that she went out of her way to be nice to a man who just did not understand her kind, she has nothing to fear. He has no cause for complaint.” Of course, this friend is a Cre- gle, too Supreme Court Affirms Death Sentence The State Supreme Court of Tennessee has ruled that H. J. Tracy will die in the electric chair on July 25th for the mur- der of H. T. Hartwell, a white bricklayer. Tracy, it is alleged, slew Hartwell after a dispute on the eve of the latter’s wedding day. He was convicted last fall and his attorneys carried the case to the Supreme Court, which affirmed the decision of the lower court. Kiziah Edwards, Lonnie Lott, and Richard Cole- man escaped the death penalty when the State’s highest trib- unal ruled they were too young to die for the murder of L. W. Gunther, local pigstand operat- or. The lower court had sen- tenced the three youths to death. Benj. F. Thomas Heads New Acme Mutual Taxpayers Liability Insurance Company, Inc. F°¢ the first time in the history of Colored Americans a Nability in- surance company for the protection of property owners has been organized by a progressive group of prominent colored New Yorkers. This company is to be known as the Acme Mutual Taxpayers Liability Insurance Com- pany, Incorporated, and its formation is the outgrowth of evils which now exist among the white Hability in- surance companies. For some time past these white companies have sought to increase premiums of Hability in- surance when taking the risks of pro- perty owned by colored people. The companies have shown extreme preju-: dice and discrimination in such a man- ner that placing of liability insurance was almost a matter of impossibility. Hence, the formation of the Acme Mutual Taxpayers Liability Insurance Company, Inc., whose headquarters will be located at 2370 7th Avenue. Through the efforts of CHfferd Butte, the or- ganization work of the company was started in January of this year, and with weekly meetings the organization gradually became a crystallized unit for the protection chiefly of colored property owners and landlords. This company will be operated under the latest statute of the New fork State Insurance Department. Its su- pervision will be directly under the | guidance of the State Supermtendent | The company is chartered to do bust- | ness throughout the United States and other parts of the world but will con- fine its efforts for the present to Greater Now York City. Property owners may make application for mem- | bership in this company at once. The certificate of membership, with the authority from the State Superintend- ent of Insurance, together with the sanction of Attorney Genera} Ottinger, was received by the company last week. Some of Harlem's prominen, business men are identified aa the of- ficials of this company, as follows: Benj. FE. Thomas, Pres.; Jupitus M.

Frank C. Whittaker is the pioneer.

The students of Pratt are picked from a large number of applicants and only the most promising are admitted. Pratt is able to do this because of its comparatively low tuition rate, the institute is heavily endowed, and the wonderful record made by Pratt students as a group. In the 41 years of its existence the Science and Technology School of Pratt has graduated but four colored engineers, two chemicals and two electricals, Mr. Whittaker being the fourth. * * * While at Pratt he did some athletic work on the tract and in the squared circle.

The vivacious Midget Jane has joined Lew Louie's Blackbirds of 1910 and will make her bow Tuesday night. We just know that she will be successful. Minnes Waldine Williams and Miss Lee were on the program at Central Y. M. C. A. June 24, both rendered solos. Archie Beckles is back in town from school in Baltimore. He is looking very well.

Mr. Cherry, the popular manager of the Sugar Cane Club (where atmosphere excels and everyone doesn't act their age), held a dinner party in the honor of Midge Lane. The tables were decorated too sharp with beautiful flowers and favors. The dinner was served and the party began in full swing and kept up swinging till it ended with a permanent away.

This shop was recently purchased by Mr. J. Neal and is managed by Wm.

As usual, the Ethel was triumphant, despite a bad throat that has been giving her considerable trouble. The Africana of 1928, like its predecessor is purely a revue form of musical comedy entertainment. The singing is the best part of the offering. The dancing is good and the comedy fair. In addition to Miss Waters, Clint Jones, Margaret Beckett and George Randoll are featured in the musical numbers. George Stamper and the Misses Waters and Beckett are the terpsichoran exponents along with an Ofay team whose names we were unable to learn. The comedy is handled by Alex Lovejoy and E. A. Pugh. Miss Waters is at her best in the cabaret scene near the end of the entertainment. She's jam-up and registers high with her audience. Her numbers are put over in that forceful fascinating way that only the Ethel knows how to do it. Clint Jones of the team popularly known as Clint and Marie scores with Ramona. His other selections are good but Ramona gets the biggest hand. Unfortunately Marie, his wife, is ill and for the time being he is working by himself. Margaret Beckett is seen to best advantage in the role of a young sheik, making love to a petite lasse of bronze sweetness. George Randoll works nicely all through the vehicle. All in all, its a nicely balanced vehicle, works with a smoothness that is pleasing and has many pleasing and amusing features. * * * THE LINCOLN Theatre is featuring Laura Bowman and Sidney Kirkpatrick in the "Perfect Lady" this week and the offering is jam-up.

Players the past three or four weeks has been in lack of material and improper casting of the three or four principals. This young black face entertainer has added to the hilarity of the comedy situations. His antics and youthful vim are rather refreshing.

He has two daughters, one who is suspected of going astray. Little Tiny Alexander, a pocket edition of Venus, acting her first character role and a most difficult part, portrayed it with the nauralness of the present day flapper. She was superb and deserved the big hands she received at that Monday afternoon performance. Laura Bowman, undoubtedly the peer of all our character actresses, was supreme as the mother. Rosa Henderson found herself and worked brilliantly as did Crackshot Hackley and John Mason. All in all, the entertainment is superior to what has been shown at this house in the past month. ```markdown ``` THE ALHAMBRA Theatre is still drawing excellent houses with their three in one policy. That is, drama, musical comedy and the photo play. Sandy Burns, Montrese Brooks, George Wiltshire, Amanda Randolph, Russell Lee and company are the outstanding features in the comedy end of the COLORED THEATRE" YETTE program, entitled, "A Hotsy Totsy Cabaret." If over this follow Sandy Burns gets away from the Alhambra with his clover aids, Wiltshiro and Brooks, business will fall off in a large measure. They are the goods, 08 plus 2 and that's that, beyond all contradiction. Sandy is the biggest box office attraction that this house has over had under the present regime. Russell Lee opens the musical comedy end of the program with the Volga Boatman number, followed by the girls in a Russian dance. This Lee is a clovor follow and one of the host straight men to appear at this theatre. But the offering is by no means as good as what was presented last week. In fact it was the chorus maids who hold or are holding the spot light this week. Those dancing damsels are the goods. very, very good. arles the Second Theatre Royal, "Show Boat" is the masterpiece out overseas. PAUL, ROBESON R as Queenie are making an emi- ction, pictured here. The dramatic playlet for this week is entitled, "The Devils Partner". Lawrence Criner is a millionaire, John Payne by name, and his son, Mason, portrayed by Eddie Thompson, has wrecked the life of a young and beautiful girl, who he later seeks to murder. There is very little that can be said about that playlet one way or the other. A Midnite benefit performance will be held at the Albambra Theatre, on June 28th, at which time a gala array of artists, will appear. The affair will be given for the benefit of Karle Cooke, well known performer, who has been a prominent character for a number of seasons.

ANOTHER week comes when I can avoid that most depressing of topics, the Negro stage, and still keep up the appearance of talking about public entertainment. Surely the Lord is good. And Mr. Lazarro, the promoter of the chocolate dancing derby, deserves some credit too. I offer the former my prayers; to the latter I extend my gratitude. While I welcome the dancing derby because it gives me a chance to ignore the imbecillities of black-face comedians it is far from the most inspiring subject I could write about. Readers will quickly perceive that the following paragraphs were not written in a jubilant mood. The note of impishness which pranked through the column last week is missing. In its place will be found the Autumnal gravity of a man who looks on the world with a serious eye. Last week the column was hopeful and whimsical. Now it is disillusioned and morose. The reason is because the dancing derby, so far as I am concerned, turned out to be a failure. I do not mean to imply that the hoofing contest is not a pleasing and novel form of entertainment. It is more than that. It is a biological experiment that ought to engage the interest of scientists and philosophers. There is black beauty enough on the floor to inspire poets to write sonnets and odes. Nor have I any kick against the management. The staff is courteous and appears to be efficient. In short the contest seems to have all the qualities required to make it enjoyable for its patrons and profitable for its backers. Nevertheless it has caused me more distress than pleasure and while it may be just what the doctor ordered for the rest of the world it is a pain in the kidney to me. not mean to imply that the hoofing control and novel form of entertainment. It is more biological experiment that ought to engage the arts and philosophers. There is black beauty to inspire poets to write sonnets and odes against the management. The staff is cold and be efficient. In short the contest seems less required to make it enjoyable for its use for its backers. Nevertheless it has caused man pleasure and while it may be just what the rest of the world it is a pain in the mind. Illusionment began when my personal entreat. Both members of the team were strangers to them my champions because the man had the back of his head. "This man," I said over a youth. He is every year as old as I go away. If he can out dance his more youthful this younger generation is not so hot as men need not fear them as competitors." From the champion of every man on the stage I was a stranger I could not tell him he was possible generation and that it was up to him being youth in its place. But I went to the Gym and gave him my moral support without to engage him in conversation but it did not suppose I chose the wrong place. It was at periods and I followed him to the gentle trite comment on the contests, as a preamble but he merely glared at me with a steer back to the dance floor. He had me with that kind of a fellow, even if I do slightly right misunderstanding did not diminish my visits to the Casino to give him my music silence at a safe distance. It was with it I observed his gallant dogs standing up four days continual dancing. Younger men put my baldish hero danced on. As he womens Father Time my inferiority complex came middle age began to weaken. When I sat on the morning of the fifth day I expressed feeling which is said to result from a glance during the evening of the sixth day. Iarts say he did not succumb but that his mutiny of his partner. There is some said not much. We mature men should not only be We should also be able to master women being tough and strong it it doesn't get the girls? From my point of view not herby has demonstrated that while a mature strength and endurance of his youth he lives with women he had at twenty-five. That is kind, for me, it makes the event a failure. My disillusionment began when my personal entry, No. 14, dropped out. Both members of the team were strangers to me but I made them my champions because the man had a baldish spot at the back of his head. "This man," I said to myself, "is no longer a youth. He is every year as old as I am. Almost as old anyway. If he can out dance his more youthful rivals it will show this younger generation is not so hot and that we mature men need not fear them as competitors." Forthwith I made him the champion of every man on the shady side of thirty-five. As he was a stranger I could not tell him he was the hope of the sensible generation and that it was up to him to put so-called flaming youth in its place. But I went to the Casino every morning and gave him my moral support without stint. Once I did try to engage him in conversation but it did not turn out so good. I suppose I chose the wrong place. It was during one of the rest periods and I followed him to the gents toilets. I made some trite comment on the contests, as a preamble to conversation, but he merely glared at me with a steely eye and hastened back to the dance floor. He had me wrong. I am really not that kind of a fellow, even if I do slightly resemble one. The slight misunderstanding did not diminish my loyalty. I continued my visits to the Casino to give him my moral support in discreet silence at a safe distance. It was with great satisfaction that I observed his gallant dogs standing up under the strain of four days continual dancing. Younger men began to drop out but my baldish hero danced on. As he won round after round with Father Time my inferiority complex caused by approaching middle age began to weaken. When I saw him still going strong on the morning of the fifth day I experienced the rejuvenated feeling which is said to result from a gland operation. Sometime during the evening of the sixth day he dropped out. Reports say he did not succumb but that his defeat was due to a mutiny of his partner. There is some satisfaction in that but not much. We mature men should not only be physically strong. We should also be able to master women. What's the use of being tough and strong it it doesn't get you anywhere wif the girls? From my point of view not much. This dancing derby has demonstrated that while a mature man may retain the strength and endurance of his youth he inevitably loses the way with women he had at twenty-five. That is discouraging news and, for me, it makes the event a failure. OTHERS ARE HAPPY This is a hard and unsympathetic world. It is because of the knowledge that the o' definitely things of the past the rest of the part of it that patronizes the hoofing man have a jolly time. Early Sunday afternoon prevalled in the Casino. The infernal man had been replaced with piano music which Most of the dancers, doggone their young, as sprightly as if they had just entered the music was appropriate they even waltzed, as a most fatiguing dance. Alas! This is a hard and unsympathetic world. While I am in dejection because of the knowledge that the conquests of youth are definitely things of the past the rest of the world, at least that part of it that patronizes the hoofing marathon, continues to have a jolly time. Early Sunday afternoon a carnival atmosphere prevailed in the Casino. The infernal noise of the Dallphone had been replaced with piano music which was not half bad. Most of the dancers, doggone their young hides, were one-stepping as sprightly as if they had just entered the pavilion. When the music was appropriate they even waltzed, which I am informed is a most fatiguing dance. LINCOLN THEATRE 135th STREET & LENOX AVENUE WEEK OF JULY 2nd, 1928 SIDNEY KIRKPATRICK AND LAURA BOWMAN in the HONEY MOON ON THE SCREEN with DUNTY FLETCHER and An All Star Cast THURSDAY TO SATURDAY RICHARL DIX in "SRORTING GODS" A HERO FAILS PrgG a JE ackstage with- sg Shagestrucke > Sunshine Sammy arrived In Harlem Sun- day afternoon. Five thousand lads of the “Y” gave him a real “Lindbergh” welcome. Sev- eral Fifth Avenue busses were chartered to take the youngsters to the Grand Centra Sta- tlon to meet Sammy. Besides the lads, 20,000 citizens stood by to watch the ritotous en- thusiasm, while police reserves held back the crowds. It was indeed a pleasing sight to see the pride and flower of Harlem’s future manhood rally to show thelr appreciation of Sunshine Sammy, who has long been the idol of the sil- ver screen. Such a demonstration is decidedly sig- nificant in that it indents an impression upon the minds of the younger generation that Is lasting. It stirs their minds to realize what it meaame $a ha nraant anmel charwe ¢tham tha nnaaeil, bilities offered to those who have accomplished something. It Is doubtless whether young Sammy realizes the remarkable inspira: tion derived by his Harlem admirers, and the interest manifest, that is so far reaching. It gives them ideals to aspire and awakens with- in them a rzse pride that will prove greatly beneficial as they grow into manhood. it. wes gratifying to see that this welcome to so young a star of the theatre was sponsored by that most conservative of all insti- tutions—the “Y.” oy Po ze nig Bu) i eo i. b oie ; POC \— Oo OE mr MES 7 sme!

YOU'VE often heard the term used by the Hot Pollock who occupy the chopper seats at boxing matches. 'If that guy would only get mud and stop printing, Luke Mitjhike, wouldn't just two seconds in there with him.' When one goes "bearsark" as the ancient Norwegian were accustomed to, it usually mount that a dozen or more warriors were forced to disappoint their lady loves, and the village mortician was kept busy for a week bowling out wooden coffins from the captains trunks of stately cedars. Stanley Ketchal had the art down to perfection, Mysterious Billy Smith, Torry McGoyern, and Aurello Horvorn, the dynamic Maximus, who was the hardest puncher the lightweight division has ever known, but by no means the greatest fighter. The ornamental trot, would go moving and when shapped by a hard punch, and light with the savagery of a corroded helmet. There was not the cold blended style of milling that characterized the battles of Choyhaski, Kid McKoy, Kid Carter, Layluger, Dampery and the one and only Sam Langford. Contemporary writers often presented Ketchal and McGoyern of being done addicts, and in a measure we agree with their findings. In Stinley's second battle with Billy Popke in which he strove to regain his midweight hurdle lost to the Kawasaki Thunderbolt but two months prior, he most naturally fought like a matinee and acted like one up until ten minutes before climbing in the squared circle. We can't recall a single Colored warrior who in the trueymanor of the word was unstopped to go "Bourke". Langford would knock you rather than a pickled herring if he was do to catch a train at any speed.

Jack Johnson, the "Ace" of them all, was a ring showman pure and simple. He played with Phrenom Jim Flynn, Joshal Burns and Jeffries, made the crowd laugh right out loud in exhibitions with Buster Burke, Philly Jack O'Brien, and Frank Moran. The one time that he went "Bourke" was when Katech tried to double cross him in their pre-arranged of fury out in Colom, California, and his "Golden smile" failed long enough for him to tour out a half dozen of the hard punching Pole's upper teeth with one devastating blow.

Husently in a warring against the Kansas City Monarchs who are third in the huge standings, the right-holder displayed his variability by placing a swell game against the hard hitting, "Cuney's." The Columba are playing your ball this year, and there appears to be some discontent among the players that might to be trounced out if better results are to be expected.

The Tlors will play Wilberforce University in the Alumni Bowl on October 27. It was announced today by the committee on the regulation of athletics. This will be the first time that the two schools have met and the game will be an international clash that will attract football fans from all sections of the country. The home coming games at Tuskagaw have always been largely attended. Now that Wilberforce will be the opponent on this occasion, the largest crowd in the history of the school for the home coming occasion is predicted. Announcement was also made that the Tigers will journey to Greensboro, North Carolina, for a home with the A, and T, College in the New Legion Bldgum on October 8th. The 'Puskagoe A,' and 'T,' games will offer the followers of the great autumn sport along the western shore a stalier attraction as both teams are championship champions in their respective sections. Theuskagoe has not been defended since 1928 and last year the great team of Coach Byrnm's won the Colored Intercollege championship.

Juliette Hurry, another cricket jack exponent of the lawn courts who was worsted by Miss Brown in a mixed doubles match, will choose her conqueror on during the progress of the tournment. Move On To Declare Jose McMahon, Madison Square Garden matchmaker, has not yet talked the handlers of Kid Francis into signing the Italian bounty weight for a fifteen-round contest with Al Brown, July 5, Francis wants to box Bushy Graham, and the latter desired to sharpen up his weapons in a warm-up or two before running the risk of losing whatever claim he has to the 118 pound crown of jewels. Nathan Francis nor Graham is my too enthusiastic about giving Brown, a lofty colored boy with a punch, a chance. The National Boxing Association has ordered the trip to settle their differences, and the survivor to box had Taylor for a clear claim to the throne to has threatened to declare intelligible the boy instilling to go through with the schedule as outlined. Unless Francis and Graham suddenly change their attitude toward Brown, Thomas K. Donohue, president of the N. B.

Posey has been before the public for more than 15 years and has been manager or in some way associated with many of the great athletic events of this period. He was for a long time captain and star guard with the famous Leonid basket ball team. Just for the past four years his interest has contorted primarily in baseball and with his usual skill and judgment of athletics, he has gotten together a team that can clash up with any in the big league. One of his players is a greater home run hitter than Babe Ruth. He is Johnny Buckwith, who has made 34 home runs in less than two months of playing this season. Then he has Martin Dhigo, the great Cuban, who plays any position on a team. Other stars with the Grays include Joe Williams, former star pitcher and manager of the Lincoln Giants, Britt of Baltimore, "Jap" Washington, Vie and Moa Harris. Manager John Lloyd isn't making any announcements about the Lincoln, but he too has a wonderful team this year not so many stars perhaps, but players who work as a unit better than any to wear the Lincoln Glants uniform in many seasons. They left Wednesday for Pittsburgh confident of getting the host of Porsay and his team this year. The double header at Protaboratory Oval Sunday will begin at 2 p.m. Emanuel Kline Loses at Handball In one of the fastest handball matches this correspondent has witnessed, James Joseph, chairman of the Y.

Neil Clisby Wins Over Alexander Los Angeles, Cal., Fresh from his conquest of John Lester Johnson, former 15th Regiment infantryman and a well known Horlem figure, Nall Clyshy, sensational young const light-heavy stopped Vie Alexander for his third victory. Alexander, who is in one of the biggest and most powerful men in the game today, instead only eight rounds with the lad who looms up as the logical contender for handsome Tommy Longgran's 175 pound title. We predicted nearly a year ago that Clisby would rise high in his chosen profession. His other two victims were Mark House, who went out in 58 seconds, and Lester who managed to stay the vault.

Hoorah for the Fourth of July! Vin Maure Orates "White folks believe that Negro comedians simply reflect the work of earlier white comedians who burlesqued the colored man's reputed love of chicken and watermelon, crap and poker games, his fear of the grave yard and superstitions. But this is only true in part." Thus spoke Tim Moore, clever blackface comedian of Lew Leslie's "Black Birds", now playing at the Liberty Theatre. Continuing, he said: "Humor was born of human weakness. It is natural to laugh and most healthy humans love to laugh. We roar with mirth when a person falls on a slippery pavement or a banana peel. And we laugh at the antics of a baby. But, would you call this humor? To my mind, humor must have both, phyical and verbal expression. "Personally, I always try to present something new or improve on the material at hand. I try to develop comedy situations of my own. In short, I try to be as original as possible. While there is nothing new under the sun, the successful man is the one who can do the old things in a bigger, better and different way. "Today you will find that the foremost colored comedians are getting away from the watermelon, chicken strolling, crap shooting, Egro type of entertainer and the superstitions of the Negro of glayery days. Nor will you find the better class of black face artists reporting to smut, suggestiveness or profanity."

Sara Washington Watch Your Perfume fumes and toilet waters has to be settled by each person. But one thing will apply to everybody: Do not use strong perfumes under any circumstances. The day is passed when all the good perfumes are imported, but any really good one, whether domestic or foreign, is expensive. It should last a long time, for there should never be more than a hint of it on the hawkerchief, or a drop behind the car or on the neck, oor in some not too obvious place. When perfume is very strong there is always the suspicion in the minds of neighbors that the much-perfumed lady is attempting to conceal some less pleasant odor. Test out thoroughly different perfumes before you choose what you prefer, then be consistent. Get soap, powder, and perfume of the same "flavor" and don't mix different kinds. Toilet waters are not so permeating as perfume and a good many people prefer them. Here again do not get cheap toilet water. The use of bath salts is growing in ear or on the neck, or in some way of acquiring a faintly elusive scent of perfume, without the overpowering effect that many perfumes give. A tablespoon of bath salts in a tub of water is ample. Do not use it with the idea of softening the water for a shampoo, as it has a rather drying effect. netting president. Mr. Benj.

Walking along St. Nicholas Avenue yesterday what should I see but Rhetta Clifford's Land Yacht parked in front of a fashionable Apartment House. I knew I was not on Vernon Street, so, without more ado I yanked the boy friend within those wrought iron gates to inquire as to the who—where and why. Ushered into a sumptuous apartment, we were flooded by strains of music and who was at the harpischord but Carrol Boyd, former denizen of You Street and who was making the welkin ring but Bernice Hughes (Martin) and an almost all-Washington crowd. There was Jay, Chesterfieldian flamboyant, jovial as ever. Those adjectives may seem paradoxical, but he's all that. After more or less of embraces, felicitations and so forth, he began to recite to me the names of some Washingtonians in New York and it sounded like an old Home week.

Why he rubs the ladies fingers and toes after they have gone through the strenuous terpichorean exertion. Rather soft for Binga, eh? Nominate a D. C. Doctor for that job. We hear that several other Washingtonians have been added to the list of those who have sailed or are sailing for Europe, Asia and Africa. We will reserve the complete list until later. With many, it is no longer a Summer's trip, but a complete year of continental relaxation. Carol Carson's twin, Clark, had a feed and glide for some friends a few nights ago. Ask Link Johnson to tell you all about it. Mrs. Emmett Jay Scott is going out to Chicago, to enjoy herself with Evelyn and Aaron's new Packard. Mercedes Rector and Robbie Brown, plus Frances Garvin, are actually coming to New York to Summer School. Frances is going to study something about the Relativity of the Asteroids, or some such terrible subject. I just saw dear Erma Burleigh and all her family and at this moment I have been joined by my most delightful pest, dainty little Barbara Connelly, so we'll call it a day and ring off. BILLIE KNOWLES of WEST PALM BEACH wishes to advise his readers that no partiality will be shown in reference to articles published in these columns. Articles for publication will be gladly received by The Tattler representative, Billie Knowles. Between motoring on these beautiful roads, playing bridge, tennis, surf bathing, and what not, how can one thing of the heat and dullness? If you doubt it, ask the Bang. Miss Gertrude Jones is visiting friends in Miami. The White Way Casino had a grand opening Sunday night. Every thing went over fine. It could hardly be otherwise when Kill Jackson and Cracker Johnson are proprietors. The many friends of Mrs. Alice Collie Henderson are delighted to see her and her little daughter, Billie Mac, enjoying their usual drives, after their recent illness. We wish to inquire of Miss Margaret just why we can't serve her with a Tattler any longer? Mrs. Long entertained a few friends at her home in honor of Mr. Ruebin Jackson's birthday. The following guests were present: Mr. and Mrs. Van Strozler, Mrs. Carrie Cole, Mrs. Ruth Ella Lowe, Mrs. Kingsley Knowles, Mrs. Mabel Walker, Mrs. Ruth Campbell, Mr. Chapple Deloach, Mr. Calvin Cole, Mr. W. W. Ham, Mr. Rueben Jackson and Mrs. Gertrude Long. Mr. James Coleman, W. P. Ba., Shelk has returned from Union University.

The east seems to be well represented so far and we are waiting for the delegates from the south and west. Chicago is sending out a few representatives. Well, when we all get together and compare notes it will be just too bad. I believe that there is a song entitled "Among my souvenirs". Stored away in the treasure chest of my memories is a dance. Yes, I have roses, and letters tied with blue. This time it happens to be a dance given at the Vodeo Club in III ole New York. The affair was sponsored by Mrs. Geraldyn Dismond. Knowing that charming lady it is needless to describe that it was a party! With many regrets I felt that I could never enjoy myself in such a manner again. But I did. So did all Chicago Society last Monday night at the Dreamland. The N. A. A. C. P. gave a benefit dance that proved to be a howling success. Folks went leaping, creeping and crawling just so they got there,—twas all that mattered. Every table was crowded and as I rambled around I saw Dr. and Mrs. George Cleveland Hall, Miss Hortense Hall, Mrs. N. K. McGill, Mrs. Jesse Jones, Mr. Cotter, Homer Thornton, Dr. and Mrs. Nelson Glover, Mr. and Mrs. Clifford Burney, Mr. and Mrs. Engene Woods, Paul Jones (the blonde, Orlon Palge, Miss Lella Rood, Mr. and Mrs. Harold Tyler, Jake Gray, Miss Nettle Hall, Dr. Emmet Ashe, Mr. Frank L. Hallstolk, Jr., Miss Dorothy Codozoe, Mr. and Mrs. Fenton Harsh, Dr. Louis Gans, Mr. Culdwell Watkins, Miss Lucille Barbour, Mr. Gilbert Faunstein, Mr. Charley Wilson, Edith Sampson, Johnny Davis, James Gentry, and Ernest Gordon. The efforts of Mrs. Geraldyn Glover aided by the girls of the Flying Squadron did much to make the affair successful. * * * Miss Hazel Belle Renfroe entertained the "Night Club", at her home last Saturday evening. The members are the Misses Hortense Hall, Leona Denison, Billie Kyle, Wilda Kennedy and Roman Lawson. The boy friends are invited which makes all meetings doubly delightful. The guests were the Misses Adene De Luc and Dorothy Carey. Mr. Johnny Davis is in town. We are very pleased to have such a distinguished young man among us. Pardon the familiarity of the first name--but that was the introduction I received. Mrs. George Cleveland Hall entertained the Century "Whist" Club on Thursday afternoon at the Appomatox Club. The party was the usual reflection of Mrs. Hall, one of utmost charm. The prizes were beautiful and the guests fortunate enough to win one were enthusiastic in their appreciation. These summer showers will just not do. I was all dressed and ready to go to the reception given by Mrs. Herman Moore, when it seemed that every cloud in the sky decided to burst. Did it rain—how well we all remember. About 5 o'clock the rainstorm let up a bit so off I started. Mrs. Moore's home looked beautiful. Beautiful is the only word that would describe the scene that greeted my eyes as I entered the door. Flowers everywhere and Mrs. Moore and her guests charmingly gowned. Mrs. Joseph Bibb, Mrs. LeRoy Johnson and Mrs. Xenia Trapp gracefully assisted at the tea table. Mrs. Franklin A. Denison received the guests as htcy entered. Among those present were: Mrs. Chas. A.

I must comment on the correct form the Starkes and the Cunninghams brought us at the Dreamland last Monday night. Tuxedoes and evening dresses—right on down to the bricks. Mighty fine I'm telling you! Mrs. Lucille Johnson entertained several of her friends Wednesday afternoon in the form of a ten party, which was very unique.

She has many friends, who are very glad to know that she has returned. Miss Hughes is residing at 5836 Michigan Avenue. * * * Miss Billy Kyle is still having out-of-town cars park at her door. The cream colored Nush from Detroit seems to be a dim memory. Nevertheless a Lincoln from Ohio seems to find ample parking space. Some folks backs are concrete but Miss Billy will take a try at anybody's back. More power! * * * Mrs. N. K.

Everyone seems to be quite charmed with the two young ladies. * * * Miss Marion Shaw and Miss Addie McCleary, were heard planning to spend their vacation in the East, New York and Atlantic City, during August. Many hearts will speed up when these two charming ladies arrive there. * * * I have heard that many letters have been received at the Savoy inquiring who the bevy of society beauties were, in the well known editor's car, last Thursday. Mr. Editor, please do not tell. Before the Foolights By PLAYBOY NOW and then some one compares our actors and musicians with those in other groups. I wish to say immediately that our actors or musicians, can act one type or play, one instrument as good as any actor or musician in any other race. But there is a difference, and herein lies that difference, actors and musicians of other groups are more versatile. That is a star actor of other groups, will star in many different types of characters. A first class musician of other groups will play many instruments very well. This execution of different types and playing of many instruments comes from long study and practice and the desire to be the best in whichever line they may be in. To do one thing well is very good, but to be able to do two things well is so much better. Our actors and musicians must realize this if they desire to be considered the best and receive compensation accordingly. ```markdown ``` Buck and Bubbles who stopped the show last week at the Regal Theatre, have been held over another week. They are still getting the lion's share of the applause. In this week's stage show, "Padlox", the two boys introduced an altogether new farce. * * * Rovela Hughes' singing at the Regal this week is the best that has ever been heard in this popular show house. In fact the entire show is exceptionally good. Fess Williams and his gay musicians seem to be like rare liquor improves with age. The picture "The Street of Sin" featuring the one and only Emil Jannings, is his latest national dramatic triumph. Sammy Williams at the Grand Organ played many request from his organ club members. This boy at organ is one of the Regal's most popular features with the young folks. --- The more sedate folks of mature years are becoming very attached to the Regal Symphonic Orchestra, directed by Dave Peyton. This week's overture played by the Symphonic Orchestra (Continued on page 157) Maryelle Rose Friday, June 29, 1928 Synopsis of First Installment HERBERT DENT, a loyal member of a hard-shelled religious sect, succumbs to temptation and commits what is for him a cardinal sin—he patronizes a vaudeville show. "Maryelle Rose," a dancer, is the feature act of the bill and Dent promptly falls in love with her. After the show he halls a taxi and starts uptown. The cab is temporarily halted by traffic lights when the door is suddenly opened and an excited young woman enters and implores him to let her ride a little way with him so that she may escape a mysterious man who is pursuing her. Dent readily consents and when he discovers the girl's name it is "Maryelle Rose." IF the cab had suddenly turned into a steam yacht Herbert Dent could not have been more astounded. He recoiled so sharply that he struck his head on the side window. The car had come to a stop at a crowded crossing and the ray of an arc light found its way through the window and fell upon Herbert's face, showing his open mouth and stretched eyes. The young woman mistook his expression for horror. "Please don't look at me like that!" "But I—I don't understand," he stuttered. "Do you think I'm a murderess? I'm not, nor any other kind of criminal. I'm just Muryelle Rose, dancer and singer. I said I'd tell you everything as soon as I get out of this, and I will." She spoke rapidly, in a panting whisper. Whatever the reason, she was a badly frightened young woman. In her heat of voice and gesture she flung aside the lipels of her fur coat, and Herbert's astonishment turned to rapture. It was indeed she whom a few moments ago he had made the star of his heaven, to be dreamed of but never possessed. Maryelle Rose, alone with him in a cab! He soon found his tongue but he did not know what he was saying, for his eyes and heart and brain were all filled with the beauty of the woman beside him. "I saw you to-night on the stage for the first time." "Yes? What did you think of me?" "You were like something from another world." "Say that again! But no; I suppose you say that to every actress you meet." "I've never met an actress till just now. I had never been in a theatre till to-night." "What!" "To-night was my first time." "Good Lord! Where did you come from?" "New York; but the rules of my church forbid going to theatres. Tonight I—somehow I just broke loose." "It's time you did. I'm just fool enough to believe you, too." Then she grew nervous again. "You almost make me forget why I'm here." "And why are you?" Her face was tight and determined. "Because I'm running, running from the worst scoundrel ever born! It's a race between him and death, and I'm out to see that death wins." Herbert began to realize that after twenty-five years of pluck living he had suddenly plunged into the midst of adventure. He felt warm and strong to think that he was doing something for Maryelle Rose, the woman he had not above all others. "How can I help you?" he asked her.

"Cautiously she drew herself up on the seat and peered out of a corner of the back window. "I can't tell yet," she said. "There are a lot of cabs behind." Herbert looked back and saw a string of cars behind them, which was nothing unusual on Central Park West. He sat down again. "I can't tell, either. No one car seems to be passing the others."

Second Installment driver to turn down a side street into Broadway. He mustn't know I'm in here." "Why not?" "I'll tell you later. I know taxi drivers better than you do, and I'm taking no chances." Herbert bent forward and gave the chauffeur directions, and in a moment the cab turned into a rather dark street. Herbert looked out of the back window again. As the cab wheeled into Broadway he noticed a large car turning into the side street about sixty yards behind. He told the girl and quickly described the car. very dressed for their Sunday afternoon median and orchestra leader, posing with, Billie Jackson, Ida Archer, Pet Before the Footlights (Continued from page 14) very novel. entitled "Home Sweet Home the World Over." * * * At the New Willard Theatre this week Buster Beans and Susie, with their all-star revue have been making the public very happy. An interesting feature in this combination is "Big George," the wrestling bear. He is a genuine Siberian type, he weights 750 pounds. When erect his height is 7 feet 10 inches. This is one of the best trained bears the writer has ever seen perform. He dances the "Black Bottom," the "Irish Shimmy" and "Hawaiian Hullah Hullah." Other features are Morton and Robinson, Davenport and Smith, Gold and Gold, and Miss Laverta Holt, a wonderful lyric soprano. ```markdown ``` If the critics of the daily papers have any influence on the public, then "Rang Tang" playing at the Woods Theatre should make a record run. As every daily had a favorable comment in it last week concerning the show, especially of the comedy of Billy Higgins and Joe Byrd. The Metropolitan Theatre has "Get down quick!" she whispered. "Don't let them see you looking back. Now, throw your coat over me." She had got down on her knees and flattened herself on the seat. He took off his overcoat and threw it over her, then he settled back on the seat the best he could. It was all he could do to keep from looking back; he could almost feel the car behind him creeping up. In a moment the cab was stopped by a traffic jam, and instantly the big closed car loomed beside it, almost window to window. The big car was lighted inside and its varnish shone luxuriously. Herbert, as casually as he could, turned to look at it. Fortunately it was on the far side and its occupants could not get a good perspective of the inside of the cab. Then Herbert oon stroll.

Thursday Bessie Love and Johnnie Walker in the "Matinee Idol" and the rest of the week two features, Emil Jannings in "Husbands Or Lovers." and Charley Ray in "The Count of Ten." Erskine Tate and his celebrated orchestra entertained with some hot syncopation. The more Erskine and his boys play, the better I like it. * * * The Vendome Theatre has been getting many entries for the popularity contest, which the management is conducting. * * * Miss Ruby Mason, well known pianist and orchestra leader of New York, is in Chicago for an indefinite stay. Miss Mason will accompany Mr. Walter Richardson, the delightful soloist, in several recitals in the near future. Miss Minta Cato, the charming little singer in "Rang Tang" is well liked off the stage as well as on it. The Pan-American Four. in "Rang Tang" certainly sings with plenty of feeling, and believe me, the folks out front sure do like it. Those dancing boys, Atta Blake. Page Fifteen Rose saw a face that he never afterward forgot. The face was pressed to the window of the limousine and seemed to fill it. It was so large, long and white that it was more like a body than a face. The man might be forty, fifty, or a hundred, but there were a thousand years of evil in him. Great, menacing eyes with black brows curving up and out like the horns of an angry bull, a big, beaked, tyrannous nose with wide nostrils; a thin-edged cruel upper lip and a heavy, jutting under lip that almost dripped sensuality; a jaw whose sinsiter determination not even a roll of fat could hide—the man's features gave Herbert a thrill of terror. It was a face to make one wonder why its possessor was not in jail; or why, since he was not, he did not destroy society. Certainly the power of evil of ten men were in it as those large, demonic eyes fastened upon the innocent face of Herbert Dent and strove to search the cab. Slowly the devilish face turned away. The man leaned forward and said something to his chauffeur with a snap of his head. The chauffeur seemed to expostulate, but the man shook his head angrily as if he were berating him for following the wrong cab. In a moment came the traffic signal to proceed and the big car drew ahead. Its owner still shaking his fist at the chauffeur. Soon it was well in front of the taxicab, then it turned a corner and was out of sight. Herbert bent and whispered to the girl. She sat up with his overcoat still around her. "Woll?" Herbert rapidly described the devil-faced man and his actions. "Yes, yes," said the girl. "It was he." "Now where do we go?" asked Herbert. "It's all over." "All over?" she echoed. "It's only begun." (To Be Continued) NOTICE TO READERS Although only one installment of Maryelle Rose has been published a large number of complimentary letters have already been received by the editor. In the event that you failed to read the first installment and misplaced your last week's Tattler, or if you have some friend who would probably enjoy the story from the beginning, a few copies of last week's paper remain in our office, where they may be obtained as long as they last. Eddie Whitefield, Blake Morris and George Newly are showing some steps that Chicago has never seen before. These boys do their stuff so artistically that several white dancing acts, which happen to be laying over a week, have been to see the show every night.
