VOL. XXII. No. 24. INQUIRY FOR 24th INFANTRY Inspector General Chamberlain is on Scene of Controversy OFFICIAL ACTION Gladly Welcomed by Soldiers Who Claim They Are Victims of Persecution @ Wutowntown, N. V., Edithically Declares the Negro Solkhrus Have Boon Better Borrowed Than White at Madison Barracks Special to TIME NEW YORK ACM WASHINGTON, D. C., March 15.—President Taft has announced that he is desirous of assembling an impartial board to hear the cases of the discharged soldiers of Companies B, C and D, of the 25th Infantry, and that he intends to see that every soldier gets a fair trial. One of the first important acts of Secretary of War Dickinson will be the selection of a military court of inquiry, as provided by the recent bill passed in Congress with a view to reinstating the soldiers. It is not likely there will be much delay in the organization of the court. President Taft has already called for and received from the War Department a list of retired army officers above the rank of lieutenant-colonel deemed eligible for service on the court. The act provides that the court shall consist of five officers, not below the rank of colonel, but does not limit the selection to the active list. As it is assumed that many cases will be presented for consideration, and that the hearings will take some time, it has been deemed advisable to choose officers who have no regular duties to inform with their services on the lawsuille court. Lunt-Gen. John C. Bates, retired, formerly chief of staff and an officer of considerable military service, has strongly recommended for the presidency of the court. He is a resident of this city and his opinion is that it is believed he would not object to the assignment. President Taft desires that each case shall be decided on its merits. To this he will endeavor to select for membership on the court officers free from opinion of bias for or against the Negro soldier. He wants a perfectly fair and impartial tribunal and hopes to be able to procure it. Under the law the court must complete its work within one year from the day of appointment. It is required to make partial reports from time to time of the results of its inquiry to the Secretary of War. Such discharged soldiers as it reports as qualified for enlistment in the army "shall thereby be eligible for re-enlistment." The army will receive "full pay and allowances and other rights and benefits that he would have been entitled to receive, according to his rank, from date of his discharge, as if he had been honorably discharged and had re-enlisted immediately." The terms of restoration to those reported qualified are such as to make it advantageous for the former soldiers to apply for enlistment. It is probable that many will present themselves for examination. About one hundred and fifty men are offered. BOSTON LODGE SUIT Being Aired in the Courts Many Report Publicity Given Controversy. Boston Mass. March 16—Wm L. Reed, P. G. M. of Prince Hall Grand Lodge, late centennial orator and prominent in political circles of Boston, has, according to the opinion of the crafts, men of this city sounded his own death well as far as masonry is concerned, by dragging into the courts a strictly private matter of the organization. A short time ago Mr. Reed was suspended by Most Worshipful Grand Master Robt L. Tteamoh for insubordination to await the action of the Grand Lodge Mr. Reed hailed Prince Hall Grand Lodge Eureka Chapter and Grand Master Teamoh into the courts to show cause why he should not be remanded. There was a hearing last Thursday. The pleadings of the defendants, represented by Attorneys F. E. Brown and Curtis Wright will be heard on March 20 and the case will be tried in April. The action of Mr. Reed is a source of general regret among the craftsmen in this State. It is recalled by many as Deputy Grand Master of this jurisdiction Mr. Reed expelled Messrs Limtmore and Robinson and suspended Messys Griffin Crusenbury and Jackson on a similar charge. if the venerable John J Smith's head is on the block also, but the Grand Master would not confirm the sacrifice is to be hoped by the friends of the order that the apparent attempt to embarrass the present regime will utterly fall. Prince Hall Grand Lodge has been in a tumult for some time. The trouble began during the preparation for the centennial celebration which took place last September. Since the election of Robt T. Teamoh to the highest place in the lodge efforts to adjust the differences and bring about harmony have been frustrated by men who have more regard for salish interest than for the grandeur and dignity of the order. NEGRO INSTITUTION. BALTIMORE, Md., March 18.—In the third annual report of the president and treasurer of the Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching, a Negro institution with alleged headquarters in Maryland, comes in for a severe scoring. The report excludes the Medico Chirurgical and Theological College of Christ's Institution from the list, whose aged teacher receives the Carnegie pension. The report says: "The District of Columbia has been prolific in paper colleges which scatter degrees far and wide, the distribution beginning usually with the members of their own faculties. "Among the colleges chartered by the State of Maryland in about 1900 is the "Medico-Chirurgical and Theological College of Christ's Institution." The charter gave the school the right to grant all kinds of degrees, and it is needless to say that the organizers a few weeks later were able to attach to their names many academic titles. The following is a brief follow-up on its first page: Fifth Annual Announcement and Catalogue, edited by the Rev. Dr. P. Thomas Stanford, A.M., M.D., D.D, L.L.P., Ph.D., vice-president." BISHOP GAINES SEES TAFT. Says He Is Convinced the Negro Race Will Be Treated Fairly. WILL Be Treated Fairly. WASHINGTON - C. A. March 13—Bishop Gaines of the A. M. Church, had a conference to-day with the President "about the future of the race," as he expressed it. "I am convinced," said Bishop Gaines after the conference, "that the President will treat the Negro race fairly. I mean that he will do as well by us as his predecessors. We have a good many offices in the South, and hope to keep them." WASHINGTON IN SOUTH CAROLINA Touring State Accompanied by Well- Night Negroes at Rock Hill Sun- day. Special to THE NEW YORK ACR Rock Hill, S. C., March 15.—The party, headed by Dr. Booker T. Washington, which is touring the state this week, arrived here early Sunday morning, coming on from Charlotte, N. C., where the members had assembled Saturday, as has been previously stated, the object of the visit is to study the industrial and educational conditions surrounding the Negro people of South Carolina; to stimulate the commercial spirit of the race and to emphasize the opportunities that lie in the wake of those who are willing to cast their lot in the rich agricultural regions of the Southland; to make homes, build schools and churches, establish business enterprises and to become vital forces in the economic life of this section. The party was met at the station at Rock Hill by a committee in charge of Dr. Richard Carroll, of Columbia, and Attorney W. T. Andrews, of Sumter, and escorted in carriages to their various stopping places. The homes of the thrifty, industrious and hospitable citizens were thrown open to them and a cordial welcome awaited them upon every hand. In the morning the local pulpits were filled by the visiting ministers, and citizens. At 1:30 o'clock, Friedham's spacious hall was packed with an expectant crowd, awaiting the coming of Dr. Washington, who was announced for an address at 3 o'clock. The speech of the famous educator was of an encouraging nature, and dealt with the advantages that lay at the door of every Negro man or woman who will strive to do his best at whatever he may under take, be lofty or humble and be a boy of the world. He bore heavily upon the importance of developing the race along commercial and agricultural lines, urging the acquisition of land, the improvement of farming methods, closer touch with the soil, and a stronger effort to promote friendly relations between the races. A felicitous address of welcome was delivered by the Hom J T Roddy, mayor of Rock Hill Editor C P T White of the Rock Hill Messenger, who acted as master of ceremonies, introduced Rev Richard Carroll, who in turn introduced Dr. Washington. At 5 30 the party left for Winnsboro where a night meeting was scheduled; Monday the day was spent at Anderson, Other cities included in the itinerary are Denmark, Orangeburg, Camden, Sumter, Florence, Charleston, Anderson Greenville and Gaffney. The Washington party which reached Rock Hill embraced the educator's private secretary, Mr Emmett J Scott Bishop G W Clinton, of the A M F Zion church; Mr J H Washington, Dr J A Kenney and Nathan Hunt, of Tuskegee Institute, Mr R W Thompson of Washington, D C Mr Charles Stewart of Zagao Dr John Merrick and C Spindler president and vice-president of the North Carolina Mutual and Provident Association, of Durham, C.

Always brings results ELIOT'S TALK ON RACE MARRIAGES A RACIAL DEAD LINE Should Exist in the South—Is Opposed to Irish, German and Other Races Intermingling. Special to The New York Acn Special to THE NEW YORK ANNAL ATLANTA, Ga., March 18—President C. W. Eliot, of Harvard, has occasioned considerable comment during the past week on the differences on the subject of the intermingling of races. According to telegraphic reports, President Eliot has made several statements with reference to white and black races living together in the South, and also relative to the question as to whether the Irish and Italians furnish a problem in this country as does the Negro in the South. It is now claimed by President Eliot that he has been misquoted on all subjects. President Eliot denies that he had been taken to task by a Massachusetts committee for his recently expressed views on the Negro question. He now says in his belief that the South is handling the racial problem in the right way, and that the best interests of both whites and blacks require that a racial dead line be established. Racial intermingling, Dr. Eliot declared, would be fatal to both white and black. The future of the South depends, according to Dr. Eliot, on the preservation by the whites of their racial integrity, and, therefore, he thinks they are handling the Negro problem in the proper way. "Why, you believe," said Dr. Eliot, "that your race problem is a new one, but it has been experienced before, only it is intensified here. The Negro cannot be expected to be ready for all phases of civilization, when he is a few decades removed from the time when he first began to enjoy civilization as a free man. After 500 or 1,000 years we may expect more substantial growth." It was Dr. Eliot's opinion that the Negro will need all the professions to enable him to maintain his racial integrity, especially physicians and nurses. Negro women, when properly trained, make good nurses, he said. Dr. Eliot mentioned the amalgamation of the Germans and Chinese as an admixture of races that has been suggested as being practical, but he said that he did not believe such an intermingling would stand. Dr. Eliot said he had been misquoted in the interview sent out from Montgomery, in which he was credited with saying that the Irish and Indians furnished a race problem and the North similar to that created by the South by the Negroes. He said that he did not suggest the example of racial intermingling that were manifested in the interview, but he repeated the statement that to maintain racial integrity an equality was necessary. For that reason, opposing the intermingling of racial stocks, even of the Armenians. The fact that a number of races are associated in a country should not prevent them from dwelling together in harmonious relations. When the English people, were cited as an example of intermingling of Jutes, Angles, Saxons, and Normans, that was successful, Dr. Elke replied: "But notice how long is required for them to unite. Races that dwell together, of course, tend to become similar." PRESIDENT TAFT OBJECTS To Booker T. Washington Going to Liberty—Needed in the United States. Special to The New York Times. WASHINGTON, D C, March 17.—It was made known here to my from an entirely reliable source that President Taft is opposed to Dr Booker T. Washington accepting a place on the Liberian Commission, as planned by the State Department. It is said that the President strenuously objects to the education going to Liberia on the grounds that it is greatly needed in the United States. Dr. Washington has been invited to be one of the Liberian Commissioners; in fact, the presidency of the Commission has been tendered him, and it is known in official circles that he has accepted the position, which is considered by him a high compliment. President Taft has taken the responsibility of stating that he does not want Dr. Washington to leave America at this time, as he will need his services in this country, especially during the next two or three months, and that it would be a loss for the educator to remain away from the United States for any length of time at the beginning of his administration. This unexpected move on the part of the President leaves the membership of the Commission in doubt, although it is believed here that matters will be ultimately adjusted with complete satisfaction to all. It is understood here that in the event of Dr. Washington's declination to give to Africa Mr. Emmett J. Scott, secretary to Mr. Washington, will probably become a member of the Commission.

I have seen them before at Ballard. I have seen them before at Wounded Warrior Mountain wounded from the soldier of Chancellor-larville."—Congressman Richard P. Hobson. Special to THE NEW YORK ANNAL MADISON BARACKS, N. Y., March 17. —Every member of the 24th Infantry stationed here has hailed the coming of Col. J. L. Chamberlain, Inspector General of the Department of the East, with delight, as his presence means a thorough investigation of the cause of the ill feeling said to be in existence between the soldiers and some of the residents of Sackett's Harbor, N. Y. The soldiers declare they have been surprised at the attitude of some of the officers to stir up trouble because the War Department has been fitted to station them at Madison Barracks, particularly after the loyal services Negro soldiers have rendered the United States, for which they have been lauded time and time again. Many of the soldiers are at a loss to understand why some of the residents of Sackettts Harbor have shown a disposition to regard the stationing of the 24th Infantry at Madison Barracks with disfavor from the beginning, especially after the excellent record they had made. It has been asked by the officers and members of the 24th Infantry that Col. Chamberlain make a thorough investigation of the charges of the people of Sackettts Harbor, some of whom are desirous of having the soldiers removed from Madison Barracks. The War Department has decided to take official notice of the strained relations existing between the soldiers and the people of the village of Sackettts Harbor and sift the controversy to the bottom, with much arrived here with many of the soldiers. After spending a short time in Watertown, Col. Chamberlain left for Sackettts Harbor, which will be the seat of the investigation. Just how long it will take to complete the investigation is not known. In commenting on the conduct of the 24th Infantry, the Watertown, N. Y., Daily Standard declares that the conduct of the Negro soldiers has been out better than that of any white regiment stationed at Madison Barracks, and says: "The fact that the War Department has sent the inspector general of the Department of the East to Sackettia Harbor to investigate the difficulties alleged to be existing between the village and the members of the 24th Infantry stationed at Madison Barracks indicates that the department regards as serious the reports that have emanated from one source and another to the effect that the soldiers are running loose and that a reign of terror exists in the village where extreme peace and quiet usually prevails. It is a well known fact that the department is anxious to avoid a repetition of the Brownville affair and will adopt extreme measures to attain this end. "Elsewhere will be found a complete and impartial resume of the troubles that have arisen since the advent of the colored soldiers. The list is far below in its totality that of any other regiment stationed at the post for a similar length of time, and aside from an isolated case or two the evidence that the guilty one was a member of the regiment is largely circumstantial. It is not uncommon for citizens in a village adjoining a military post to appear regularly in army uniforms that they have obtained by barter and possibly some of the trouble can be made to his face that he has been repeatedly said, the conduct of the colored soldiers in this city, at least, has been far and above that of the average white regiment that has been stationed at Madison Barracks in recent years. The local police have had comparatively little to do in criminal lines so far as the colored soldier is concerned. "It is a matter of congratulation both to the residents of Sackets Harbor and to the members and officers of the 24th Infantry that the department has seen fit to go to the bottom of the agitation and find out just what has occurred in reality. It will not take much time to sift the chaff from the wheat and the inspector will have little or no difficulty in running to ground the sensational landers that imaginative reports have spread broadcast at so much per line. The inspector will conduct his work by confidential investigation and interviews and will render his report to headquarters. The announcement of his findings will be eagerly awaited by the civilian as well as the military element of both Sackets Harbor and Watertown. DEATH OF H. R. HELPER H. R. Helper's tragic death last week recalls his book, "The Impending Crisis in the South," which was written about fifty years ago on the slave question and for a time stirred the nation. The deceased was a poor white, born in North Carolina. He was opposed to slavery and wrote "The Impending Crisis of the South," not because, as he said, he had any love for the Negro, but because he thought oligarchical despotism should be overthrown. Helper realized that free white labor and an abolitionist cause exist side by side without the degradation of the white man who toils. Unrewarded labor brings all labor into contempt. He had no love for the Negro whatever, for he longed to see the day arrive when the Negroes would be removed from the United States and their places filled by white men. But to quote from his own words, he felt that "black slave labor, though far less valuable, is almost invariably better paid than free white labor. The reason is this: The flat of the oligarchy has made it fashionable to 'have Negroes around,' and there are, we are grieved to say, many non-suspendible whites (lickspittles) in order to reclaim the ones who creates a hired slave whom they falsely imagine secures to them not only the appearance of wealth, but also a position of high social standing in the community, keep themselves in a perpetual strait. Despite the enormous sale of his books year ago, Helper died in Washington a suicide, having taken his life while dependant. FIGHT ON IN CAMBRIDGE To Retain Emory T. Morris As Deputy Sealer. Boston, Mass., Mar 16—On a joint ballot the Democrats again control the city government of burlington, the city of the county seat, Tuesday. William H. Brooks. Democrat was chosen mayor by a good majority and the Board of Aldermen stands eight Democrats, three non-partisan. The City Council remains non-partisan by a reduced majority. The interest in the election centered on Emory T. Morris, deputy sealer of weights and measures, who is a non-partisan appointee to a position made for the satisfaction of the Negro voters. He was appointed through the influence of Hon. H. Lewis against the opposition of many Negro voters two months prior to the city election of 1908. He was immediately confirmed by the non-partisan Board of Aldermen. The election brought a Democratic majority to the board, and the board submitted him, submitted they refused to confirm it. Mr. Morris thereby became a "holdover." In the meantime the Legislature placed the deputy sealer of weights and measures under Civil Service. All incumbents of the office on October 1, 1908, were to remain subject to the rules thereof. The mayor, William Wardwell] again sent in the nomination of Mr. Morris, which was again rejected. The question now arises whether Mr. Morris is out of the reach of the Democratic Party, now in power. There seems to be a possibility that he was as a "holdover," he became a permanent deputy in the office under the eligibility rule of the State Civil Service Commission the Democrat threaten to destroy the position, claiming it was merely a "reputation." The Negro votes, and the顺序 of the city does not demand a second deputy. Most Largest Circulation DISCUSSES DIVORCE EVIL Dr. W. H. Brooks Deplores Large Number of Divorces Are the Cause of Many Homes Being Wrecked and Bright Prospects Blighted In Which Divorcee Regarded it as an Honor to be Known as the Divorced Wife of a Prominent Man Before a large audience last Sunday morning, Dr. W. H. Brooks discussed at length the divorce evil, using as his subject, "The Power of the Church," and taking his text from the Tenth Chapter of Matthew. Dr. Brooks deplored the large amount of divorces that were being secured in the courts daily, and declared that he did not believe in the divorce laws as in force today, as too many divorce decrees are granted. An incident was told by the speaker which tended to show how lightly the general public considers divorce. Recently, while visiting a certain home, he met a woman to whom he was introduced as the divorced wife of a prominent man. Instead of taking the ground that to be a divorcee did not reflect credit, judging from the conduct of the divorcee and the one who made the introduction, they considered such a condition lent honor to the woman who had been legally separated from her husband. Continuing, Dr. Brooks said: " Society must be on a low basis if a woman must become divorced to be honest. However, I do not think someone have reached such a demonstration stage." According to Dr. Brooks, many treat marriage too lightly; that now a day's trivial disputes separate man and wife, thereby wrecking bonds and brightening prospects. He advised all married couples to regard their marriage more seriously, and whenever there was a misunderstanding to be broad-minded and seek to effect a reconciliation. Speaking to the young men, Dr. Brooks told them of the great responsibility resting on their shoulders, and told them when they make up their minds to be joined in wedlock it should be for all time. They were also advised to shun all places that would tend to impair their morals. A strong plea was also made to the women to make high ideals and live accordingly. When both the men and women set a high moral standard to live by the speaker declared he felt sure that there would be less harm. In the opinion of Dr. Brooks, nothing can suppress the church in its forward march for good; that if it is question of whether the church or the world shall dominate affairs, the church by virtue of its spiritual and divine power, will triumph over everything temporal. AFTER DANCY'S PLACE Negroes In All Parts of the Country Casting Longing Glances at the Recei- sion Special to Turn New York Aux. WASHINGTON, D. C, March 17.—Nogro candidates for Recorder of Deeds, the position now held by Hon. John C. Dancy, are as numerous as fallen leaves after the first heavy frost.

At the expiration of this year, Mr Dancy will serve two terms as Recorder of Deeds. Deeds of numerous applicants are assuming that President Taft will de- cide that two terms is sufficient for any office holder although President Taft has not intimated what will be his policy with respect to two terms. Dr W D Crum of Charleston, S C. is also mentioned in connection with this office Mr Dancy hacked by the Bishops and ministers of the A M E Zion Church, will endeavor to continue to hold the office, and these, it is said, will bring to the attention of the President, at the proper time, the fact that Mr Dancy was one of the few avowedly Negro supporters of him during the pre convention days, and one of those who rendered service after the election, and that he was espousing the cause of President Taft when some of the aspirants for his toga were attempting to incite Negroes against him.

SPRINGFIELD, Mass., March 28.--A well-attended meeting of Springfield people who are interested in one way or another in the idea of promoting a home in rural city for colored young women was held Sunday in the St John's Congregational Church. The gathering was held by the Rev. William N. DeHery who told briefly the idea for calling the meeting Representatives were present from the Loring Street A. M. E. Church, the Third Baptist, and the women's clubs of the city.

A committee to devise further plans was appointed and consisted of Revs. Wm. N. DeHery, Moore Brown, E. Luther Hampton and many colleagues of each of the local women's clubs.

Not long ago this company incorporated, and against considerable opposition of a sort too well understood to mention, purchased a magnificent tract of level land immediately adjoining the famous Bianford Cemetery (white), and right on one of the suburban car lines, for the purpose of giving the colored people of our city a desirable burial ground. The directors of the company are Dr. W. S. Fields, Prof. Jaa. M. Colson, Mr. Jas. M. Wilkerson and Mr. W. A. Penn, each of whom is especially qualified for his post and deserves much credit for this wise move on behalf of our people. They have already had the land substantially fenced in and so beautifully platted and land-scaped that one would hardly ever take it for a large cemetery. They say, sometimes, a race's progress is measured by the care it bestows upon its dead if true, we have here a splendid sign of race progress.

Mar. 16.—The aftermath of inaugural week presents turmor at the national capital Rumors among all gatherings, formal or informal, credit or discredit some one or another with having secured President Taft's or some other personage's nomination for more or less high office in the government proper, and in institutions connected with the District. Of counsel, President Taft will send several new nominations of colored men to Congress very soon. The native citizens of Washington very much desire that persons, be sent here who will give still higher social tone to the community rather than accept the present social organization. Social service among all classes by persons of influence and character is sorely needed, and several of the officials at present in good office have engaged themselves seriously and earnestly in this work. The intention of President Taft, as signified in his manual address, to demolish the referee system of appointment to Federal office, is the subject of speculation as to what will become of the colored political referees. The focus of the raging turmoil how ever, arises out of the question of social equality among the colored people. Washingtonians have long put off public discussion of this matter, but the various social functions lately held manifested deep feeling in this regard so that the deep concern for their lives be their discussion than ever before. Several old residents claim that their applications for participation here and there in elect functions were disregarded or laid upon the table by reason of various charges, and the whitman blackball method. The same residents are making counter charges which do not tend to create tranquility in social circles. Pedigree are being read, so that those who run may not be aware of the condition they are being planned for Easter and even next season to outshine everything that has gone before Any official from other parts, who finds himself shortly precipitated into this maelstrom by appointment to Federal of fice, will do well to keep his head above water and his record unattarnished. The work into which it is conceded, he may participate with honor and credit and universal popularity, is that of social uplift of the masses by connection with organizations plentifully found in Washington but which used just such new blood as a prominent and popular government official might bring. Hon. W T Vernon, Register of the Treasury, keeps closely in touch with Western University at Quindandu Kan. of which he is president. Mr. Vernon recently went before the appropriations committee of the Legislature, Topok Kan, urging a large item for the school. The result was an appropriation of $66,400, of which $25,000 is to be used to erect a girl's dormitory and the remainder for general equipment and library extension. Mr R. W Tyler, Auditor of the Navy Department, has within the past few days made a number of clerk promotions which are popular among these might be $1,800; Dr. Bismarck R. Pinback to $1,400; Mr. E. A. Fatten to $1,000. Among those mentioned as candidates for the office of Recorder of Deeds are Hon. J. Milton Turner, of St. Louis, and Dr. W. D. Crum, of Charleston Judge R. H. Terrell was discussed as to his late appointment by the current issue of Leslie's Weekly. A cut account of the discussion, which was mostly descriptive. Mr John C. Nalle, Supervisor of the Tenth Division of Public Schools, has been reinstated to his office from which he was temporarily removed not long ago.

Mitchell, of St Mary's Chapel, will speak at the eight o'clock services at St. Luke's Church on Sunday evening next. A fitting climax to the inaugural festivities was a pretty dancing tent by Miss Mabel E Wilson and Grizzle to the Misses Mabel E Wilson and Deborah H White, of Chicago, on Friday of last week in a private room of True Reformers' Hall. The hall was tastefully decorated in green and Japanese tanterns. About 11 o'clock the seventy odd guests were served to a delinity collation. The contractor for the Young, Men's Christian Association Building will see it under roof for $40,000 three fourths of which has already been paid him.

There is needless uneasiness among many Negroes, we feel, over the national situation. Taft's policy, as announced in his inaugural speech, that he will not fly in the face of Southern sentiment in appointing Negroes to office; and that Negroes should base their hope of the future on their own efforts, has seemed to them, and a large part of the South, too, like an acquiescence in Negro political suppression. But to thus interpret his policy is to read into his words a meaning entirely at variance with the spirit of the man. Taft has always stood like adamant on matters of principle. He has heretofore, both at home and abroad, done prejudiced people good by bringing them to see the light. He has never had to remain with those that sit in darkness on matters of justice and opportunity for all 'men. There will be now no compromise on anything basic and fundamental in Negro citizenship. No unbeliever can, as yet, sensibly say, "I told you so." He must, rather, wait to condemn the concrete acts of the President. We prefer to take the principle of Taft's Negro policy announced at Washington and in the South, as well as in the North: "He is an American." Does Taft mean this, or does he repeat so often that which he does not mean? If we credit Taft with sincerity and wisdom, if we are to look for guidance from his past, if we are to believe his very words, then Taft will work for Negro rights, and privileges, and protection, as he would No Negro need lose hope and patience because the South and the North are coming closer together. No Negro should be so shortsighted as to think that Taft, as a patriotic American, and as President of all the people, ought not encourage this closer union. Every Negro should expect, however, that their "coming together" will not be to his detriment. He should be vigilant that it be not at his sacrifice, but to his profit. That the union of the sections should be attended with as little friction as possible is Taft's purpose. It is best for the Negro and the nation. WORTH READING Every one who has not done so should read just as quickly as possible, an article in the March number 61 of the Atlantic Monthly under the caption of "The Heart of the Race Problem," by Rev. Quincy Ewing, of Napolonville, La. The Reverend Doctor Ewing speaks out with a frankness and a bravery on this subject that has never been equaled by a Southern white man. He lays bare many of the falsities and sophistices concerning the discussion of this subject. The average Southern white man says that one one but a Southern man can understand the Negro and the Negro problem. No oge can accuse Dr. Ewing of not being a genuine Southern --- --- HELPER'S IMPENDING CRISIS. HELFERS' DEPENDING CRISIS. In the suicide last Tuesday, March 9, at Washington, of Hinton Rowan Helper, the author of the second greatest anti-slavery book has passed away. "The Impending Crisis," published in 1857, by the North Carolina "poor white," was in many respects more effectual than "Uncle Tom's Cabin," in bringing to the "irrepressible conflict." It drove the South to distraction as did nothing else of the time save John Brown's raid. The sales of the "Impending Crisis," exposing by a victim the deprivation of the "poor whites" due to slavery, exceeded those of the book of Julia Ward Howe. It was a veritable hornet's nest in the heart of the South, driving slaveholders and non-slaveholders to bitter division. It too, aroused the conscience of the North, not in sympathy for the blacks, but for the miserable "poor whites" who were seven in ten of the Southern white population. A Methodist minister was imprisoned in the South for circulating the book, and its sale was forbidden Discussed daily in Congress, the approval of the book by Congressman Sherman, of Ohio, brought on a deadlock and defeated him in his candidacy for the leadership in 1860. A picture of the hopeless labor and social seclusion of the non-slaveholding Poor whites may hear with fear and trembling but not speak. They must be as num as dumb brutes, and stand in a weary—of-the-august superlaces, or be crushed with stern rebuked child of presents, or downright violence. If they dare to think for themselves, their thoughts must be forever concealed. The expression of any sentiment at all conflicting with the gospel of slavery, dooms them at once in the community in which they live, and then, whether willing or unwilling, they are obliged to become heroes, martyrs, or exiles. They may thirst for knowledge, but there is no Moses among them to smite it out of the rocks of Hereb. Never were the poorer classes of a people, and those classes so largely in the majority, and all inhabiting the same country so barely duped, so adroitly swindled, or so damnably outraged. The poor whites then were ground in the dust by the upper and neither mill stones of slavery While, to-day, they have come into political power in many Southern States, in trying to enforce ignorance and inferiority on the Negro, they are enforcing ignorance, poverty and moral deprivacy upon themselves and their children. A Helper is now needed to show the poor whites that "they cannot keep the Negroes in the ditch without staying down in the ditch with them." --- RECALL OF MINISTER LEGER. RECALL OF MINISTER LEGER It is somewhat to be regretted by all true friends of Hayt, that the Hon. J. N. Leger, her minister at Washington, has been recalled. Whatever the reason, Hayt will find much trouble in placing his equal to represent his republic in ours. Mr. Leger has stoutly and ably defended his country in the times of her crisis. His letters and his book in revealing the truth about conditions in Hayt have had no little helpful effect on American public sentiment. Patriotic and diligent in his business, ever alert for his country's interest, he was held in high esteem by the United States Government. But having served his country for 15 years as minister at Washington, it is, perhaps, due some other able Haytian that he be given the post. Or maybe it is that his home government will wisely seek to use his services in advancing the country's domestic interests. He is one of a long line of Haytil's capable and constructive statements. Prior to his appointment to Washington, he was chief of the bar of Port-Au-Prince and was president of the Society of Legation, at Port-Au-Prince. In leaving this country, American Negroes hope the Simon administration will avail itself of this true and tried Haytian. TEN GREATEST AMERICANS. In response to the question asked of its readers by the New York Herald "Who are the ten greatest living Americans?"—barring men in political life—it is significant that a Negro, Dr. Booker T. Washington, was so prominently mentioned. Says the Herald, in summarizing the result on Sunday, February 21: "Among educators Booker T. Washburn, Chas W. Elliot and is closely followed by Jas H. Carley, of North Carolina, William G. Sunner have a smaller clientele as well as collegiate work. Fellix Editor, who is also a man of many educators has several voices, so does Nicholas Murray Butler. When a Negro's place among and over such a field of leading authorities is recognized, it not only pays him the highest tribute, it not only gives the force of authority to the worth of his service, it reflects an admirable state of public sentiment. It is another evidence that great service and its recognition transcend the lines of race and color We believe, however, that we are yet too close to get the true perspective of the relative greatness of the eminent leaders of Harvard and Tukeague. Harvard's president, following closely the abolition of slavery, began the transformation of college education to a more practical basis. Industrial education, which owes its national popularity to the Negro leader and orator, has yet to find its permanent place in American education. Industrial education is destined, it now seems, to surpass in value to this country the great changes wrought in education by Dr. Ellot. Time alone will determine their relative values. Time alone will determine the consequent relative greatness as educators of Booker T Washington and Chas W. Ellot. --- SENATOR FORAKER'S SPEECH. The speech delivered in Washington a few days ago on the occasion of the presentation to Senator Foraker of a silver loving cup was really worth hearing. Not only was it an eloquent speech, but his manner of speaking is fraught with a great lesson for our people. It showed that while white people can disagree they can also get together Senator Foraker urged his colored hearers to have faith in President Taft after expressing his own faith in him, to be patient with him. The Senator also said that he believed that the race had never had a stronger friend in the White House than is true of President Taft. We should not be surprised to see Senator Foraker returning to the United States Senate before many moons have passed by. --- In a recent issue of The Am As we published a dispatch from Montgomery, Alabama, pursuing to cover an utterance from President Elliot on the intermarriage of race. We 'thed not express ourselves on this utterance at the time because we feared that which has since proven true, that his utterances were not all quoted. Since that time we have had an opportunity to examine the local papers and we find that much that President Elliot said was omitted. In the meantime we believe that President Eliot is talking too much on this subject and what he has stated is not justified by the truths of history. Certainly, nothing has been lost to civilization by the intermarriage of Scotch and Irish. Some of the greatest characters the world has known are Scotch-Irish. According to President Eliot's way of thinking, such a union should not take place. Many of the Southern white people are fond of boasting that they have Indian blood in their veins, being descendants of Pocahontas. President Eliot knows, we think, that the strength of American character is very largely due to the intermarriage of various racial stocks Expressing ourselves in this manner, however, we are not advocating the intermarriage between black and white people in America, because, in our opinion, that is a matter that will take care of itself To show how President Eliot's interview was misrepresented by omissions, we append the following, which was not sent out by the Associated Press from Montgomery. President Eliot stated that equal opportunities for primary, secondary and higher education should be given to both races if they were to be kept separate. He also stated, in regard to the ballot, that neither the law nor the enforcement of the law should discriminate against the Negro in the matter of voting. He also stated, in referring to education, that the man who paid the rent paid the taxes. --- IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION. Splendid in its promise of effective political organization was the political conference held by Brooklyn Negroes last Thursday night at Fleet Street Church. Such was the temper of the large audience present; such is the earnestness and caliber of the Negroes behind the movement that it seems that the Negroes of Brooklyn are actually waking from their lethargy of the last twenty years. The first conference, held on February 26, prevented nothing last the obstinate and fruitless contentions of the rival organizations. So general is the popular discontent of Brooklyn's Negroes over their political plight, that the last conference resulted in a temporary organization under a strong corps of officers. Committees were then appointed looking toward a closer co-operation for mutual and race interests and another conference was called for the early days of April. In short, it appears actual headway has been made toward co-operation. We do not believe that any club can now withdraw for selfish reasons. All will, doublest, wisely accede to the will of the majority. The Negro voters of Kings County have been denied adequate consideration in the past, because they have not been organized to demand anything. They have made their start for political recognition. We hope that they will follow up their lead. EDITORIAL AFTERTHOUGHTS. An Aux correspondent happily diagnoses the case of President Elliot as arteriosclerosis, or senility or as being old and doty. Yet President Elliot is the youngest old and the brightest doty man, you ever saw. In the death of Hinton Rowan Helper, the most powerful Southern antislavery and exponent of Negro deportation to Africa, passed away. Elliot his own more, but withal Helper was one of the fairest friends in disguise the Negro has had. The New York Negro broker Ellis, said to pass for a Spanish, properly took offense when Texas put him in the "Jim Crow" car. Negro peasimists say there are two kinds of people, the Elliots and the blacks, and Mr Ellis did not get there with the Elli Seeking apparently to be consistent or court popularity in the South, President Eliot has missed the mark both ways and is in greatest disfavor with Southern whites as well as Negroes, talking about no race admixture of any kind You figured wrong, Mr Eliot, neither he consistent in the South nor think the South consistent. That able successful and oldest practicing Negro lawyer in Florida, I. L. Purcell with his assistant, N. T. Bryan, sung for an estate valued at more than $100,000 had the decision handed down in his favor. Being old in the business of Negroes, he knew there was a hand him as his fee, while Mr Bryan as usual was a beaming onlooker The enthusiastic Mississippi correspondent of the Southwesttertelling of the remarkable progress of Negroes in the South began as Oxford running six miles that was owned almost exclusively by Nightingale begins five churches, draws pews and three rows pew, and grate malt, and then he adds the significant fact that the leading landholder the president of 600 acres worth between $74,000 and $100,000, Mississippi prescribes don't say: 'Don't do as I do, but do as I say do.' At Montreal, before leaving for his home in Galveston where a great reception is planned for him, Champion Jack Johnson declared he was a student of Shakespeare. The questioner had heard the king's sleep: Ay, King, every inch a king! Ye. Our tears in Texas Rangers stick deep. Hon. J. N. Leger, for 15 years Hayti's diligent and patriotic representative at Washington, on his departure tor home declared that he hated to leave America, but that he would be glad to return at his earliest opportunity. Knowing the ill feeling in Hayti against the friends of Nord Alexs, Mr. Leger may have been stating a plain fact The South never once caught on apparently that the leader of the Philippine constabulary band, which was given the place of honor in the escort of President Roosevelt and Mr Taft at the inauguration was none other than the American Negro, Lieutenant Loving Either they did not recognize the class Negro Loving or did not swearing to see if the worst is not yet to come' A few days ago Chief of Police Crecy of St. Louis was asked by Miss Bennie Carr of Newport, Mich. to find Daisy Huggins, the mulatto mother of two children and heresy to $30,000 in money and mining stock valued at $20,000. We don't agree at all with the facetious comment of our Western contemporaries. We don't agree with the Negro honesty, for had Daisy Huggins been a white heath, there would have been scores rushing forward to embrace the name. Not Married, But No Butting In.

The Brooklyn Eagle. Henry to Houston, Texas. A lynching bee recently disgraced Houston, Miss., and a newspaper accredited it to Houston, Texas. This leads to the question: "Of course, nothing of the kind happened in Houston, Texas, the incident referred to having occurred in Houston, Miss." Lynchings do not take place in Houston, but they do occur seventy years of Houston's history, no lynching has ever disgraced the city." Honor to Houston, Texas, for its free-standing spirit, and we have a right to feel a pride in their civilized city." The Troy Weekly Press. Citizens Not Racial. The anti-Negro crusade by the Pittsburg police is over. Two of its closing incidents were at an abortion on a girl in a white shirt and the discovery that a woman who claimed she had been attacked by Negroes had grown up with her husband the fact that she had just been arrested in a raid on a disorderly resort. When a community starts on a race case, everyone else faces the same every race and their opportunity. It is easy to divert attention from criminals if the public and officials mind can be changed by attacking a race. **The Buffalo Express.** No Color Line in England Sir—That there is no color line in Great Britain was demonstrated the other day when the Birmingham magistrates refused to renew the license of the American Skating Rink because an African student of the Birmingham University, of which Sir Oliver Lodge is principal, was refused admission on account of his color. Sir Oliver had presented the case with much force, and eventually Mr. Joseph Anall, on behalf of the American company, gave an assurance that students of the university should be admitted to the rink no matter what their nationality. Britishers cannot understand the American prejudice against color. Some years ago I died at the house of the principal of Harrow School.

Upon the Hon Robert H Terrell, one of the judges of the new Municipal Court of the District of Columbia, has fallen the distinction of being the first colored man ever appointed to the position of Federal judge. Judge Terrell was born in Virginia in 1857. After the Civil War his father moved to Washington, where the son attended the public schools then just established for colored children. Later he went to Massachusetts and worked his way through other institutions of learning. He was graduated from Harvard in the class of 1854 where the degree was obtained. He had the race to attain this distinction, and he was one of the commencement speakers. Rubenquille, while a teacher in and principal of, a high school in Washington, he studied law in the Howard University Law School, graduating with first honors. He was in due time admitted to the bar of the District of Columbia Courts and to the bar of the D R Supreme Court. He served for four years in the Treasury Department as a division chief and later practiced law as a partner of John H. R. Martin, Minesheimer. In 1902 he was appointed by President Roosevelt Justice of the Civil Magistrate's Court of the District of Columbia and was responized in 1906.

It is not out of place to suggest that the ministry of the colored churches in the large centers of influence and population should be improved.

We wanted a duty placed on all imported articles so high that no foreign market could compete. The country was successful, and what was the result?

Brooklyn eng For Agitation in Washington Public Schools Said to be Justifiable; Others Not—Less Members on Board Would Insure Better Results special to THE NEW YORK AGEN. WASHINGTON, D. C., Mar. 16.—In my last letter I stated that I would speak of the part the Negro newspaper published in this city has played in the school agitation. I also stated that the part The Bee has played has been largely resultant rather than creative. I am aware that there are scores in Washington who coercively declare that The Bee is responsible, or was responsible, for the failure of the school agitation. A careful investigation convinces that such statement is absolutely false. During my three weeks spent in Washington, delving into the school situation, I heard march on our school grounds by a Negro native Washington. So universal was the condensation of this newspaper that I was almost inclined to the belief that it was the yellowest of safron-hued newspapers. The Bee was not so agitated, but it would be an agitator, and it may, because of the temperamentality of the editor, and the lack of support given it by Negro residents of Washington, fill its columns with unwarranted information, and would not, but investigations have disclosed to me that The Bee has not attired up strife in the schools. It has rather feated on the strife which those connected with the school always have been perfect harmony in the schools, and had the teaching corps been the beet. The Bee's attacks would have caused none to flinch—would not have caused commotion and without a delay, there has been purification. For some no justification whatever. At times its editor has fought like an animal driven to bay. At other times he has struck out mady and without aim. At other times he has struck out mady and without aim. By this newspaper has been resultant other than creative. For a spell, I learned, that this newspaper carried on a merciless and incautent and unwarranted war on the assistant superintendent and the school board, education, to which either made reply, much to their credit. These attacks, I am satisfied, were inspired not because of any really wrong, or act, on the part of the assistant superintendent, but were inspired by conditions that had previously existed—conditions that were benevolent to the schools and which the assistant superintendent was endeavoring to correct. It was damned if you do, and damned if you did. All reformers are scorned, no matter how much merit there may be in their names. When Prof. Brune, when I learn it is a very capable, earnest, and meditative restraint and education, which all Washington now admit are now making for the betrayment of the schools, he was assisted within and without. In incompetent teachers and mediocre buoy-bodies on the inside been busy in roosing in busios and taking, and factoring in new lease of life, and being with greater well, discord. I have observed that Prof. Bruce, who, by the way, is a son of the late Senator E.K. Bruce, appears to be imbued with the idea that the schools should be built for the students, pupils, and not for the sole benefit of the teachers, and because of this right conception he brought down upon his head the maldings of certain teachers, some of whom should be relegated to facta. I appealed not to the teachers for information, but to those most deeply concerned in the proper development and administration of the schools—the parents and pupils. I found, as in the belief that the present constant superintendent would, if left alone, bring order out of chaos. I found that the pupils were hopefully looking forward to the time when thorough competent teachers would be more than the exception, in every school There are some bright, exceptionally bright, teachers connected with the schools—teachers who are earnest, as earnest as they are competent, and as earnest as they are competent, and are loyal to the service. I find there are a few very earnest and competent superviseurs, notably Dr. Montgomery and Dr. Bailley. But not until the competence of the teachers becomes the rule will the Negro schools of Washington measure up to the other schools. And not until the Negro members of the Board of Education become competent superviseurs with appointments of non-interference with appointments and promotions, and holding the assistant superintendent strictly accountable for the teachers will there exist that harassment and that feary to a superviseur and to uplift and adjustment of the pupils. Is a former letter, stated that I doubted whether Mr. Horner, the latest Negro member of the board, added any strength to the board. I do not think he adds any strength for several reasons: I am not a third of the members, I know, I am a third of the members makes a number of mackings. The more simple a piece of machinery is the more perfect is its action. The fewer Negro members the least likely is there for discord among the board members. The three Negro members are, frequently, widely at variance; they are widely at variance, both to the time of experience and ability to end my investment in terms of an increased to the belief that the Negro member would be better and more harmony among principals and teachers and the betterment of the people. Mr. Horner is unquestionably earnest and honest—all are honest in their purpose. Frequently, I am more than may be honest in the purpose, but have a wrong conception of what he may be should be.

For the first time in the history of the well known team New Yorker have been given an opportunity to see one of the comedians work without the other. Since their first success years ago as vaudeville performers at Koster and Bald up to this season when they have played first class houses throughout the country Bert A. Williams and George W. Walker have always appeared piously. It was, therefore, out of the ordinary for the theatregoers of Manhattan to witness a performance in which one comedian made his appearance without the other. Monday evening hundred of colored and white admirers of Williams and Walker wendled their way to the Metropolis Theatre to see Bandanna Land with Williams and without Walker. When the writer left the theatre after the last act he heard the following expression: "That follow Williams, is a show in himself." That was the general verdict We were unable to register one tuple of applause less than on the other occasions when Bandanna Land was seen here, yet throughout the process, anyone who had ever seen Williams and Walker, there was something lacking, a personality that has always been one of the chief elements of success in Williams and Walker. In several of the scenes where George Walker has been particularly effective there was a pathetic suggestiveness that made you long for the other member of the team. The two comedians have worked so long and successfully together that it would be unnatural for the public to look for one without the other—at least at this time Bert Williams is due great credit for the high-class work he is doing. Realizing the importance of his position he is even funnier than ever, and he has really discovered a few new dancing steps. There should be no surprise shown, however, because of Bert Williams carrying the show alone. He is, if not the funniest, one of the funny comedians in the business. There are many white comedians of less ability who are carrying large Broadway productions, so amazement should not be expressed because he is doing likewise George Walker's work is divided between Aida Overton Walker, Jesse A Shipp and Alex Rogers, all of whom do themselves proud. The writer has always considered Aida Overton Walker clever. She is so because she is a student, and her new duties in Bandanna Land evidence that she is always studying how to improve. Her singing of "Bon Bon Buddy" is as artiste a rendition as one would want to hear, and if applause is a criterion for making good—enough said. There are several new selections, particularly Bert Williams' drinking song and his I am Eating in Restaurants." And if you want to hear "Down Among the Sugar Cane," sung as it should be, attend a performance of Bandanna Land. I will not disclose any personal information. Recently the Cincinnati Times staff had the following to say about the work of the Bandanna Land Company: 'There is just one thing a fair minded person can say regarding the migrants who participated in Williams & Walker 'Bandanna Land,' and that is the natural singers and合唱员. The latter characterizes migrants that who has not seen the migrants act wild revel of low comedy, a choir generation of efforts, a confidence and all the awakening which they have with puttight burlesque, but that is miskept. These migrants sense of comedy. They make points quite and with to enjoy it. Every time they pick up they do it as it will now to them. They seem to the them selves into the very heart of the stead of stressing for points and sound appliance they stick to for the thing it does. They seem to be egregious habits of one another and full of professional pretensions, but that does not show in the general result and that is what the audience wants. There are some points in the way of enthusiasm and conscientious work by which their white characters in the profession might print. And a little they are marvelous. They take the big finales with a very positive ment as to points and effects and is a revelation. Attention was still this same character in theコミュニティ this year but the effect on the spout for large, clear numbers is equally noticeable this year. We are nearly month of familiarity with the same songs and finales have not seemed to dull the interest in not the execution of them. They are sung if of the mixed chorus loved every note, and with a freedom from the mechanical sounds which is refreshing. Someone said during the week, 'I would like to be blind- JIM MOORE AIDA OVERTON WALKER IN MALE ATTIRE SINGING "BON BON BUDDY" folded and hear that chorus and the chorus in the Savage company sang the first act finale in The Merry Widow, and see which I would like best' It would be hard to decide" WHERE THE BIG SHOWS ARE.

The company is in winter quarters at Jacksonville, Fla. having closed after a successful season February 19. Manager Pat Chappelle is making arrangements for the coming season, as Mr. and Ms. Chappelle are at present stopping at MIS Frencel and Del, and are personally looking after their palace sleeping car, which is being built by the Pullman Company at Wilmington "A Rabbit's Foot Company" will carry two cars this season and will have one of the finest sleeping cars ever used by any show. Several new faces will be seen in the coming new company during the season which will be the strongest of the season, and orchestra will be one of the features. Manager Chappelle has secured a new tent and seats, and the performers will have new costumes for street parades. All who intend posting this company write to Manager Chappelle at the Jacksonville address given in PIRF AOF as he is booking people daily. RAYS FROM THE RED MOON The leading Montreal daily paper presents as follows. To the list of recent mineral comedy successes special attention is called to the Red Moon both the costumes and members of the company are all that attended reports claimed them to be.

Our days were spent in the cities of the United States in wagons of all TON WALKER ING "BON BON BUDDY" Primitive descriptions. Several members are on the sick list, including Jeanette Murphy, Sallie Byrd, Tom Lockhart. Douglas Allen and George Day, due to the great altitude of the territory in which we have been playing. Standing room at Santa Fe, Roan, Las Vegas, Alberqueque and Las Cruces was displayed and the show pleased the audience immensely and at advanced prices, too. Tim Owley is being given a great reception in the second and last week without saying that undoubtedly he has a favorite in this territory. Tim Owley is the guest of the hour, as it is his home in Los Angeles this week. The athletic club in the company has been changed to indoor club, owing to the former blizzard's effect on the members. The statue of Kitt Carson is a thing of beauty in Santa Fe. The citizen点点 to it with pride to all visitors. Navajo Indians prowl around the car in these pasts, day and night, selling tickets and begging food, etc., but owing to the lack of members to analyze their looks and tell us what they want, we look upon them as a suspicious manner at all times.

HOW BE MAKEN GOOD (BY The Faskay) From personal experience and close observation, which are, I believe, good teachers, I am writing my views about the young Negro's opportunity on the stage, new world, mean, to maximize more successful outcomes because I have been more successful than other young actors of the race. Aside from the success of the events, the Negro has not made much a record in dramatic art. Should any one attempt to write a history of the acknowledged Negro on the stage, before he would finish the sharpening of his penel to indulge such record, he would have to down. The opportunity of the Negro in the work is assured if the few who have been given chance will apply rigidly to study and not be enamored by the glitter of caruncul and nightly disdain, so often offered as compliments and hospitality after the lights are out and the sceneries shifted. To the young man or woman who would succeed I would say, study past failures, understand the future, beware of the hospitality which includes drinking and gambling. The situation for a good time has runned many apart, who failed to realize he had little money and less knowledge of the profession in which he washed to shine. It is very different behind the scenes. If you wish to succeed, understand that work must, and labor hard and thoroughly. You should serve the business method and tenacity of the role and Johnson. Williams and Walker and Ernest Hughes, and past record of San Tomas, whose successes are apparent. Would you learn the secret? It is hard work, personal sacrifice and close application to their work. You may not apply to certain methods of these men but they have succeeded and it pays to emulate the man who has created a structure instead of the one who has never even tried. The young man aspiring for the stage must win his way through work, deter imitation, and not through social favor coming from carousel and the admiration of beautiful scenery. Dissipation wrecks the body and destroys the mind, knitting a talented young man with ability to have a musical director, but the avenues of love were so alluring he failed, instead of working way up to a fine salary. He was of the number who cried, "There's no chance for the Negro!" He was of the kind who are satisfied with too little. I will admit that our opportunities for development are few, but we must so strive that our place in the dramatic world shall remain. Let us portray and preserve traditions and racial treatin- in so commendable a way that egregious thrilling with vast recalls of loyalty under adverse conditions, men woven with traditions, weird and en- training, and with a romance peculiarly our own shall teach objectively that we can build nobly and well.

Muriel Bligfield and L. H. Sailburys's singing of "Down Among the Sugar Cane," assisted by chorus, should not be overlooked. The Five Musical Spillers are at the Felton Theatre, Brooklyn. There is some likelihood of the act going over the Mozart Circuit soon. Strange, but true after Murphy and Francis have been playing William Morris time for a number of weeks they have returned to the fold of the United Booking people. They have been given time ahead. Is the United Office waking up? Black and Jones have left the United people and are with William Morris. They have been playing over the Orpheum Circuit all winter, and arrived in New York a few days ago, opening at the American Theatre Monday. Paul Stanley, white comedian and composer of the song 'Ta Ra Ra Boom Dey,' died Monday, in Denver, Colo., after a long illness. One Stanley, whose real name was Sue Stanley, lived in Denver with his wife since the San Francisco earthquake. He was reduced to straightened circumstances and was much impaired by the earthquake. . . . Manager Willie Hammerstein, of the Victoria Theatre, has announced that Champion Jack Johnson will appear at the above named theatre the week of March 29. The performance will consist of a three round sparring exhibition, including some of the principal blows which championship. During the same week Jack Jones will appear at the American Theatre, only a stone's throw from the Victoria. Billy McClain is not only active in theatrical circles, but the following anouncement shows that he is also engaged in the sporting world 'Billy McLain is manager of Frank Crozier, champion wrestler of the world, middle-weight division. It will be noted that this is the first champion wrestler the world has ever had and it falls direct in line with Jack Johnson who is the first colored heavy weightighter of the world.' The Chocolate drops are at the Bpou Theatre, Tulliuth, Mumbai. Last week the art opened over the Nuthan Considine Circuit in Winnipeg with King and Babie. There is no doubt as to the art being able to make good over the circuit that has refused to book colored acts for a number of years. At the first performance in Winnipeg the members of the net took three bowls. We expect to hear of other colored acts going over the circuit soon. --- In answer to the numerous inquiries about the Frogs, we will say that all already plans are being discussed relative to the members moving into their large and palatial club-house recently pursued. The opening to talk place about Man, the so-called highly probable that during the summer Washington, Baltimore, Philadelphia, Honolulu will see the Frogs in a big mined entertainment that is if the vaudeville managers do not induce several of the Frogs, by offering large and fancy salaries to enter the vaudeville ranks. The Bibose (Araz) Daily Review commented on the Black Pattie Tremblade in part as follows. Black Pattie is in the voice, and while not appearing as often as would have pleased the crowd was greeted by her audience with enthusiasm each time she walked on the stage and was accorded several encores. Barb Greene and Billy Young both played them well worth seeing a round time, if for nothing else than to get a hearty laugh at Tim Owsey and to hear the nightingale of the colored race." ... The opening of a new popular pro- theatre with the play "Johnny Jones" for an attraction, with Lew Dockster's patrons playing at another house and the company performing was the opposition to the new Stock Company Knoxville, Tenn. last year. Nevertheless the Lincoln Theatre did a good business, as the patrons of the lit- he colored theatre showed that they were interested in the entertainment being of interest. At Theatre matures the company repeated the Black Cat with Sam Gardner in the leading role which he played with credit. This week the company is presenting S. Tutt What nays is musical comedy. The Tenderfoot. music by Homer Tutt and L. L. Correll. IN THE SPORTING WORLD Joe Gans Now in "Has Been" Class EVERAL of the sporting writers who Saw the boxing exhibition last week in New York City between Joe Gans and Jazeb White were inclined to think that Gans could have knocked the Englishman out had he been so disposed and that no knockout was registered at the instance of the Old Master' because in a previous arrangement Gans has been knocking out so many men that the public is demanding the moment when he does not make it possible for count of ten to be in order. The first thought is that Gans has been faking when he fails to land a solar plexus. Such was not the case in the match between Gans and White Gans did his best to put the Briton out and after the fight was heard to remark that he did store a knockout but that the referee made a knockout to forget the touch of his schedulers and the count and be the first to be praised that eight nine and ten followed White recovered from the land of mad Return of Champion Jack Johnson Jack Johnson is the son of the world best runner to America and he is during his life like a champion himself. As can be seen, the United States held the world title in 1920, but he would delegate terms, that would be demand of any such international conditions as he is compelled to take in order to get him a fight with France.

The administration of inaugural week presents a chance of national capital. Rumors of the inaugural commencement formal or informal, and of several some one or another who have received President Taft's or another percentage's nomination for office in the high office in the governors' power, and in institutions concur with the District. The president President Taft will send nominations of colored men and women very soon. The native citizens of Washington very much desire the president here who will give him his social tone to the community, thus accept the present social organization. The social service among all persons of influence and charm is surely heeded, and several of the officials at present in good office have managed themselves seriously and anxiously in this work. The institution of President Taft, as administrator, is the inaugural address, to determine the referee system of appointment to the principal office, is the subject of speculation, as to what will become of the colony and political referees. The focus of the raging turmoil, however, arises out of the question of social equality among the colored people. Washersmans have long put off public disgrace of this matter, but the various functions lately held manifested the bitterness forward for more social equality than ever before. Several old demands claim that their applications for participation here and there in elect elections were disregarded or laid upon the table by reason of various charges. And the walmart blackball method. The usual residents are making counter demands which do not tend to create transgressions in social circles. Pedigree are made and the hoo run away from social functions and social functions to outshine everything that has gone on. Any person from other parts, who finds himself shortly precipitated into this circumstance by appointment to Federal office, will do well to keep his head above water and his record unmarnished. The person into which it is conceded, he may associate with honor and credit and personal popularity, is that of social upbringing by connection with organizations plentifully found in Wash. state, but which need just such new features as a prominent and popular government official might bring.

Tall's policy, as an inaugural speech, that abolished war on the face of Southern Africa in abolishing Negroes to offend the Negroes should base their efforts on their own efforts, protected to them, and a large force, the South too, like an acquiescence to the Negro political suppression. When this interpret his policy is used, he words a meaning enriched, with the spirit of racism. Tall has always stood like an opponent to matters of principle. He understands both at home and abroad, the prejudices people good by bringing to the light. He has always remained with those that stir the matters of justice and humanity for all men. There will be no compromise on anything fundamental in Negro citizenship. the minister can, as yet, sensibly would you so." He must, rather, be the minister, the concrete acts of the minister. We prefer to take the reason of Taft's Negro policy an- ticipation in Washington and in the state as well as in the North: "He must understand." Does Taft mean this, we must be so often that which hours are not mean? If we credit Taft honesty and wisdom, if we are sensitive evidence from his past, if we know his very words, then we must know his Negro rights, and know his mission; as he would know of our mission. the North are more militaristic than the North are more militaristic. No Negro man should be attended as to think that he is a patriotic American, and no President of all the people, ought to attend his closer union. Every man should expect, however, that his business together" will not be his business. He should be vigilant in he not at his sacrifice, but in his pride. That the union of the nations should be attended with as many Negro as possible is Taft's purpose in best for the Negro and the nation. WORTH READING Drew one who has not done so should have been quicker as possible, an article in the Mail March number of the American Monthly under the caption of "The Heart of the Race Problem," by Rene Dancy Ewing, of Napoleonville, Ohio. The Reverend Doctor Ewing speaks of the煎熬 of煎熬 and a bravery on the question that has never been equaled by a Southern white man. He lays bare many of the falsities and sophistication concerning the discussion of this subject. The average Southern white man says that no one but a Southern man understand the Negro and the Negro problem. No one can accuse Dr Hines yet put being a genuine Southern --- HOLLINGER INFENDING CRISIS. On the翌 december last Tuesday, March 10, Washington, of Hinton Rowan mourns the author of the second greatest and most severe book has passed away. "The impending Crisis," published in 1892, in the North Carolina "poor whites," was in many respects more effervescent than "Uclee Tom's Cabin," in bringing on the "irrepressible conflict." It ensued the South to distraction as not only else of the time save John Brown said. The sales of the "Impending Crisis" exposing by a victim the蓄奴性 of the "poor whites" due to slavery, exceeded those of the book of John Ward Howe. It was a veritable bonnet's nest in the heart of the South, driving slaveholders and non-slaveholders to bitter division. It too, around the conscience of the North, not in sympathy for the blacks, but for the miserable "poor whites" who were peril in ten of the Southern white population. A Methodist minister was implanted in the South for circulating the book, and its sale was forbidden. Discussed daily in Congress, the approval of the book by Congressman Sherman, of Ohio, brought on a deadlock and defeated him in his candidacy for the leadership in 1880. a picture of the helpless labor and miserable position, of the non-stakeholding Poor whites may learn with fear and trembling but not speak. They must be awe of their aucteur superiors, or be crushed with a stern rebukes, cruel opinions, or be forced to think for themselves, their thoughts must be forever concealed, their dreams to dare they dare to think for themselves, their thoughts must be forever concealed, confloating with the gospel of slavery, dooms them at once in the community willing or unwilling, they are obliged to become heroes, martyr, or oxiless, willing or unwilling, there is no Moses among them to snite it out of the rocks of Hereb. . . never were the poorer classes, or oxiless, largely in the majority, and all inhabiting the same country, so basically duped, so sinfully swindled, or so damnably outraged. The poor whites then were ground in the dust by the upper and nether millstones of slavery While, to-day, they have come into political power in many Southern States, in trying to enforce ignorance and inferiority on the Negro, they are enforcing ignorance, poverty and moral deprivation upon themselves and their children A Helper is now needed to show the poor whites that "they cannot keep the Negroes in the ditch without staying down in the ditch with them" RECALL OF MINISTER LEWER It is somewhat to be regretted by all true friends of Hayt, that the Hon. J. N. Leger, her minister at Washington, has been recalled. Whatever the reason, Hayt will find much trouble in placing his equal to represent his republic in ours. Mr Leger has stoutly and ably defended his country in the times of her crisis. His letters and his book in revealing the truth about conditions in Hayt have had no little helpful effect on American public sentiment Patriotic and diligent in his business, ever alert for his country's interest, he was held in high esteem by the United States Government. But having served his country for 15 years as minister at Washington, it is, perhaps, due some other able Haytian that he be given the post. Or maybe it is that his home government will wisely seek to use his services in advancing the country's domestic interests He is one of a long line of Hayt's capable and constructive statesmen. Prior to his appointment to Washington, he was chief of the bar of Port-Au-Prince and was president of the Society of Legation, at Port-Au-Prince. In leaving this country, American Negroes hope the Simon administration will avail itself of this true and tried Haytian. TEN GREATEST AMERICANS In response to the question asked of its readers by the New York Herald: "Who are the ten greatest living Americans?" harassing men in political life—it is significant that a Negro, Dr. Booker T. Washington, was so prominently mentioned. Says the Herald, in summarizing the result on Sunday, February 21: Among educators Booker T. Washington, a Jacksonville High School W. Elliot and its co-founder followed by Jas. H. Carlyle, of North Carolina. William G. Sunner have a smaller clientele, who call attention to their work. Felix Eder, who is also a man of many attainments outside of his work as an attorney, votes, so does Nicholas Murray Butler. When a Negro's place among and over such a field of leading authorities is recognized, it not only pays him the highest tribute, it not only gives the force of authority to the worth of his service, it reflects an admirable state of public sentiment. It is another evidence that great service and its recognition transcend the lines of race and color. We believe, however, that we are yet too close to get the true perspective of the relative greatness of the eminent leaders of Harvard and Tuskegee. Harvard's president, following closely, the abolition of slavery, began the transformation of college education to a more practical basis. Industrial education, which owes its national popularity to the Negro leader and orator, has yet to find its permanent place in American education. Industrial education is defted, it now seems, to surpass in value to this country the great changes wrought in education by Dr Eliot. Time alone will determine their relative values. Time alone will determine the consequent relative greatness as educators of Booker T Washington and Chas W Eliot. --- SENATOR FORAKER'S SPEECH. The speech delivered in Washington a few days ago on the occasion of the presentation to Senator Foraker of a silver loving cup was really worth hearing. Not only was it an eloquent speech, but his manner of speaking is fraught with a great lesson for our people. It showed that while white people can disagree they can also get together Senator Foraker urged his colored hearers to have faith in President Taft after expressing his own faith in him, to be patient with him. The Senator also said that he believed that the race had never had a stronger friend in the White House than is true of President Taft. We should not be surprised to see Senator Foraker returning to the United States Senate before many moons have passed by. BLOT IN THE SOUTH. In a recent issue of The Am we published a dispatch from Montgomery, Alabama, purporting to cover an utterance from President Elliot on the intermarriage of races. We did not express ourselves on this utterance at the time because we feared that which has since proven true, that his utterances were not all quoted. Since that time we have had an opportunity to examine the local papers and we find that much that President Elliot said was omitted. In the meantime we believe that President Elliot is talking too much on this subject and what he has stated is not justified by the truths of history. Certainly, nothing has been lost to civilization by the intermarriage of Scotch and Irish. Some of the greatest characters the world has known are Scotch-Irish According to President Elliot's way of thinking, such a union should not take place. Many of the Southern white people are fond of boasting that they have Indian blood in their veins, being descendants of Pocahontas. President Elliot knows, we think, that the strength of American character is very largely due to the intermarriage of various racial stocks. Expressing ourselves in this manner, however, we are not advocating the intermarriage between black and white people in America, because. In our opinion, that is a matter that will take care of itself. To show how President Eliot's interview was misrepresented by omissions, we append the following, which was not sent out by the Associated Press from Montgomery. President Eliot stated that equal opportunities for primary, secondary and higher education should be given to both races if they were to be kept separate. He also stated, in regard to the ballot, that neither the law nor the enforcement of the law should discriminate against the Negro in the matter of voting. He also stated, in referring to education, that the man who paid the rent paid the taxes IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION. Splendid in its promise of effective political organization was the political conference held by Brooklyn Negroes last Thursday night at Fleet Street Church Such was the temper of the large audience present, such is the earnestness and caliber of the Negroes behind the movement that it seems that the Negroes of Brooklyn are actually waking from their lethargy of the last twenty years. The first conference, held on February 25, provoked nothing but the obstinate and fruitless contentions of the rival organizations. So general is the popular discontent of Brooklyn's Negroes over their political plight, that the last conference resulted in a temporary organization under a strong corps of officers. Committees were then appointed looking toward a closer co-operation for mutual and race interests and another conference was called for the early days of April. In short, it appears actual headway has been made toward co-operation. We do not believe that any club can now withdraw for selfish reasons. All will, doubless, wisely accede to the will of the majority The Negro voters of Kings County have been denied adequate consideration in the past, because they have not been organized to demand anything They have made their start for political recognition. We hope that they will follow up their lead. EDITORIAL AFTERTHOUGHTS. An Ace correspondent happily diagnoses the case of President Eliot as arteriosclerosis, or senility or as being old and doy. Yet President Eliot is the youngest old and the brightest doty man, you ever saw In the death of Hinton Rowan Helper, the most powerful Southern antislavery and exponent of Negro deportation to Africa, passed away. He loved the Negro less because he loved his own more, but withal Helper was one of the fairest friends in disguise the Negro has had. The New York Negro broker Ellis, said to pass for a Spaniard, properly took offense when Texas put him in the "Jim Crow" car. Negro pessimis says there are two kinds of people, the Eliis and the Dermises, or the whites and the blacks, and Mr Ellis did not get there with the Eliis Seeking apparently to be consistent or court popularity in the South, President Eliot has missed the mark both ways and is in greatest disfavor with Southern whites as well as Negroes, talking about no race admixture of any kind You figured wrong.

We don't agree at all with the facetious comment of our Western contemporary that this is an indication of the Huggins been a white heirs, there would have been scores rushing forward to embrace the name.

When a community starts on a race case, the police every race find their opportunity. It is easy to divert attention from criminals if the public and official mind can be changed, and attacking a race — the Buffalo Express No Color Line in England. Sir—That there is no color line in Great Britain was demonstrated the other day when the Birmingham magistrates refused to renew the license of the American Skating Rink because an African student of the Birmingham University, of which Sir Olver Lodge is principal, was refused admission on account of his color. Sir Olver had presented the case with much force, and eventually Mr. Joseph Ansall, on behalf of the American company, gave an assurance that students of the university would be able to the rink no matter what their nationality. Britishers cannot understand the American prejudice against color.

Upon the Hon Robert H Terrell one of the judges of the new Municipal Court of the District of Columbia, has fallen the distinction of being the first colored man ever appointed to the position of Federal judge. Judge Terrell was born in Virginia in 1857. After the Civil War his father moved to Washington, where the son attended the public schools then just established for colored children. Later he went to Massachusetts and worked his way through other institutions of learning. He was graduated from Harvard in the class of 1854 with the degree A. B. Cum Laude, being the first man of his race to attain this distinction and he was one of the commencement speakers. Subsequently, a teacher in and principal of, a high school in Washington. he studied law in the Howard University Law School graduating with first honors. He was in due time admitted to the bar of the District of Columbia Courts and to the bar of the U.S. Supreme Court. He served for four years in the Treasury Department as a division chief and later practiced law as a partner of John R Lynch formerly a member of Congress from Mississippi in 1902 he was appointed by President Roosevelt Justice of the Civil Magistrate's Court of the District of Columbia and was reappointed in 1906. When Congress created the Municipal Court for the District of Columbia Justice Terrell was made one of the six judges of this body Judge Terrell's wife is Mary Church Terrell, widely known as the leading clubwoman of her race. -Leale's Weekly WHAT THE NEGRO PRESS HAS TO SAY While some of our lawmakers are sternly fighting compulsory education because it will include the Negro we are our people throughout the school district, our people throughout the cities, towns and rural districts are for the most part full, some to overflowing —The people's Recorder (Orangeburg, S.

Then we by all means ought to be treated as Americans. This means that if we are Americans then we are entitled to the right and privileges of Americans. If we are Americans then we are discriminated on railroads, street cars. at the polls or anywhere else. That we are not "Afro-American," not "colored Americans," not Negroes in the common acceptance of the term, but just plain Americana—The Baltimore Afro-American. It is not out of place to suggest that the ministry of the colored churches in the large centers of influence and popu- lation should be improved. The ratio of intelligence in ecclesiastical circles should be increased, and there is nothing to suggest that the church should be as a stern and rigid demand on the part of the common people. A man who is taxed to support the gospel should not be allowed to teach, and those who are more sound than sense, neither should the rime and patience of people of the medium grade of intelligence be taken by pupils deacclaimers who have nothing of them to teach them—The Nashville Gloria. For the last few days a great deal has been said in regard to the colored man in his deportment in respect of his attitude toward the lawless persons of his race. The better class of our race in this vicinity especially do not favor the idea of concealing or shielding those who have provocation commit crimes. We believe that the law when properly applied to crime of all kinds, when committed by any man, regardless of race or condition. There is no race of people who better loosen the order than the Negro race. when properly applied —The Newport News Star. Twelve years ago we, together with thousands of others, were strong protectionists. We wanted a duty placed on all imported articles so high that no foreign market could compete. The country was successful, and what was the result? The trusts and combines raised the prices on the necessities of life so laborers would be used to laborer with an availance, family will be able to keep his head above the level. Whereas, we, under the free-trade rule, we, under the free-trade rule, from seven to ten dollars per ton for food charged from sixteen to twenty dollars per ton. If the above are the fruits of protection, for heaven's sake give us crude — The Oakland (Cal) Sunshine. A very few men have been really active in the making of Boley. True, there are quite a number who have brought their money and families here and made permanent homes, but where an emergency arose and immediate action was demanded, only a few men were ready to come to the fore and meet that emergency. When failure seemed to stare our eyes, we had to fight. We had fought and lost, a few men came forward and took matters in hand and brought about a new and brighter conclusion, and otherwise, a very few men they were — The Boley (Okla.) Progress. The national mania for lurching somebody has developed a new phase within the last few weeks. The last suitable victims for the discipline of the rabble, in localities where a supply of Afro-Americans cannot be found, are the Greeks. Accordingly, in at least two cities, Omaha, Neb., and Dayton, Ohio, the mob has been engaged in civilizing the city and Thucidides by burning their homes, destroying their stores and maltigating their women and children—and the Star over the land of the free and the home of the brave.—The St. Paul Appeal. Colored people in the South and in other States are invited to come to Illinois and to this county and city and make their habitat. Illinois is rich in soil, rich in her supply of brain; rich with tradition, the greatest State in manufactories and political supply of able men for high places. We extend you the band of welcome, but we want frugal, industrious, law-abiding colored men—men who will prove a credit, not a dishonor, men who will work, not a dishonor, men who will work, not a dishonor, raise cattle and garden, not peanut politicians. This is a fine country for such men. Money is plentiful for such men. We also invite colored men here because some capital and desire to go into business—Tue Springfield (Ill.) Forum The writers of true American history will not measure the Negro by his loud mouthings and laudings of himself, but by what he actually accomplishes in the moral, educational and commercial growth of the nation. One honest bushel of potatoes produced, one honest dollar earned; one actual truth demonstrated by the race; worth more to our race than all the pomp of the nation can make in a hundred years. While we must give proper credit and praise to all the worthy achievements of the race, we must give credit to battle on in the race of life, we must ever keep in mind the undying truth that actual accomplishments will be the end — the Kentucky Torchlight.

First Magazine Editor - Everything he gets his hands on he runs and throws into the waste-basket - Lippincott. Liberian Gambia "Lark" Judiethan waited upon the Hon. R. B. Little agent of Moose, Eider, Dampson & Co., on Sunday, preferred a substantial grievance. The burden of their grievance was that they have to pay a head tax of five shillings on leaving home and another five shillings on their return. They do not object to being landed on their return at a point which is many miles distant from their own country, and in order to reach they have not only to travel on whatever they have, but often have run the risk of passing through the country of a tribe hostile to them, while they are always liable to be robbed. The captain endeavor to help them by stopping their country and allowing them the opportunity of landing at their home. This, however, involves breach of the Liberian laws, entails risk for the captain who does it. The recent incident of the Liberian gunboat diving upon a Woermann steamer shows the need a captain entails when he meets the crew of the Liberian passengers. It is this incident which has stirred the Kroos to take the step on to seawater for the private to bear to seawater for the private to exit and return to their own country. The deputation was made up of meaGrand Cause, Sasaytown, Nififon and Pickleman, and there was no port open to steanners to enter from Garroway to Setta Kroos, and compris the extensive coast and inhabited large number of tribes of different nationalities. The Kroos have from time immemorial formed an important but indispensable sea and inhabited coast of commerce on the coast—as important and indispensable in the matter of shipment of trade, the status which Kroo labor controls to justify consideration being accorded it, and especially as it is of the nature of a profession and means of livelihood which Kroo labor controls in inhabiting the Liberian coast. This lifts anything affecting this general vocation of the Kroos into a national question, and the Liberian authorities ought to look at the matter in the context of the population's majority of the population of the country being involved and deal with it as such. The distinction which allows the American-Liberian citizen to go abroad to work without the protection, while in the case of the poor the protection is necessary to penalties for doing the same thing, is distinctly an invidious one, and not by any means calculated to inspire loyalty and consideration to the endeavour to conduct a foreign system of government, the Liberians cannot afford to lose sight of the fundamentals and considerations obligated in their case, and dispensable to success of any kind. Government in their case, owing to the peculiarity of its raison d'etre, involves as one of its main duties the protection of the interests of the people—an object and idea consecrated by the most sacred obligations and constituting the one safeguard which the Government possesses. The Liberian authorities to find ways and means for meeting the necessities of the great majority of its citizens in the country, and the statement which enables to provide such ways and means is undoubtedly the best and wisest so far as promoting the solid interests of the Government is concerned. The interests of both Government and country that the Liberian authorities should have a fuller and deeper understanding of both Government and cease to pander to a policy which can only work to produce dissatisfaction and disintegration. It is obviously of more value to the Government than the dissatisfaction and disintegration of the citizenship of the country the greater will be the satisfaction and appreciation evoked with that section. At the same time, this or not, it is manifestly anything but significant of wise government or loyalty that the citizens of one government should be obliged to appeal to those of another government—The Lagos (West African) Weekly Record HARTFORD FOR BETTER HOUSES.

WASHINGTON D. Mar. 16—In my last interview, I stated that I would speak of the part the Negro newspaper published in this city has played in the school institution. I also stated that the part The Bee has played has been largely resultant rather than creative. I am aware that there are scores in Washington who vociferously declare that The Bee is responsible, or was responsible for the extinct. A careful investigation convinces me that such statement is absolutely false. During my three weeks spent in Washington, the newspaper I beamed scarcely one good word spoken for The Bee by native Washingtonians. So universal was the condemnation of the newspaper I beamed, I included in my belief that it was the yellowest of saffron-hue newspapers. The Bee may not be above some things, and it may be an agitator, and it may, because of the temperament, be difficult to support given it by Negro residents of Washington, fill its columns with unwarrantable and bitter criticisms it otherwise would not, but my investigations have disclosed to me that the schools have been perfect in the schools. It has rather feasted on the strife which those connected with the schools had already stirred. Up there always been perfect teachers and teaching corps been the best. The Bee's attacks would have caused none to flinch—would not even have caused comment. For some of the Bee's attacks there was satisfaction whatever. At times its editor has fought like an animal driven to bay. At other times he has struck out madly and without aim. At the same time every attack made him feel that he has been resultant rather than creative. For a spell, I learned, that this newspaper carried on a mercellus and that an assistant superintendent and some of the members of the board of education, to which I belonged, were attacked. These attacks, I am satisfied, were inspired not because of any really wrong act, or action on the part of the board members, but were inspired by conditions that had previously existed, conditions which the board understood, and which the assistant superintendent was endeavoring to correct. It was a case of 'damage' if you do, and damned if you did. All referees are censured, no matter how much merit there may be in their work. The referee's degree is a very capable, earnest and modest guestman and educator, begins to instruct, and now admit are now making for the betrayment of the schools, he was insulted within and without, incompetent, and the outside became busy in gossip and tale-bearing, and factions that have existed for years took on the role of the discord. I have observed that Prof. Bruce, who by the way, is a son of the late Senator Robert F. Kennedy, has given the idea that the schools should be conducted for the benefit of the pupils, and not for the sole benefit of the teachers, and had brought down upon his head the maledictions of certain teachers, some of whom should be relegated to the limbo. I have not yet applied to the teachers for information, but to those most deeply concerned in the proper development and administration of schools, I found a rule, that the parents were secreta in the belief that the present assistant superintendent would be able to direct the pupils to hopefully looking forward to the time when thoroughly competent teachers would be the rule rather than the exception, in every school. There are some bright, exceptionally bright teachers connected with the schools—teachers who are earnest, as earnest as they are competent, and as the thoughtful of their pupils as they are loyal to the service. I find there are a few very earnest and competent supervisors, notably Dr. Montgomery and Dr. Bailey. But not until the competent, earnest and loyal-to-the-pupil teacher becomes the rule will the Negro schools of Washington measure up to the other schools. And not until the Negro members of the Board of Education become thoroughly impressed with the propriety of non-interference with appointments and promotions, and holding the assistant superintendent strictly accountable for the teachers will there exist that harmony and that fealty to a superior officer, so necessary to the uplift and advancement of the pupils. In a former letter I stated that I doubted whether Mr. Horner, the latest Negro member of the board, would do not think he adds any strength for several reasons, but mainly for the reason that a third Negro member makes for a cumbersome machinery. The more she makes it its acclimatization is the least effective is its acclimatization. The fewer Negro members the least likely is there for discord among the board members. The three Negro members are, frequently, variably, both in temperament, experience and ability, and from my investigations I am inclined to the belief that one Negro member would insure better and more harmony with the primary purpose of the pupils. Mr Horner is unquestionably earnest and honest—all are honest in their purpose. Frequently, however, a man may have a honest in his purpose, wrong conception of his purpose should be. This board membership and its rela- tion to harmony and the letterment of the Negro schools, will be among specific remarks in a future letter.

BALZMOREM, Md., Mar. 15.—There was a very largely attended meeting of the College of Education teachers with the College High and Training School last Thursday evening. These meetings are held monthly, and this one was the first since the recent change in the curriculum. The address was delivered by the Rev. George F.

This meeting was the mutual importance of the heartiest and most heartiest co-operation upon the part of both of these institutions for the greatest reason and to the community. Without the race and to the community, principal of this school, is a fact that our people generally are much pleased with the selection of Prof. Joseph Joseph, who is not likely if any Negro in Maryland stands higher in the esteem of both races as an efficient, courteous and refined educator.

Nintendo Land is also available on the store, to buy the new game. Williams business has something lack- ing in the store that has always been the reason for success of success of the business. Bernard George Walker has been a passionate observer there was a pathetic misunderstanding, made you long for a member of the team. The two members have worked so long and so seriously that it would be necessary to the public to look for one more to take the place at least at this time. William is due great credit for his hard work he is doing. Really the importance of his position he has mastered than ever, and he has discovered a few new dancing styles. There should be no surprise that however, because of Bert Willis, the show alone. He is, in fact, the most one of the funniest characters in the business. There are other amateurs of less ability who are carrying large Broadway productions; an environment should not be imposed because he is doing likewise. Walker's work is divided between Alda Overton Walker, Jesse Ace, Alex Rogers, all of whom are working proud. The writer has also completed Alda Overton Walker now. But he is so because she is a student of her new duties in Bandanna and that she is always studying to improve. Her singing of "How Beautiful" is as artistic a rendition of the would want to hear, and questioning is a criterion for making a sound sold. There are several particulars particularly Bert Williams' drinking song and his "I'm Tired to be in Restaurant". And if you want to hear "Down Among the Sugar Birds" as it should be, attend a performance of Bandanna Land. Recently the Cincinnati Times-Star and the following to say about the work of the Bandanna Land Company: There is just one thing a fair-minded person can say regarding the negroes who participated in Williams & Walker's Bandanna Land, and that is, they are katharine smith and comedians. The latter probably might suggest to one who has not seen these negroes act, a wide variety of low comedy, a cheap exaggeration of effects, a buffoonery of style and all the Downishness which goes with buffort bireleque; but that is a misunderstanding. These negroes have a real sense of comedy. They make their point clearly and with restraint. They take it. Every time they speak a line, they say it if it was new and fresh. They seem to throw them into the very heart of it, and in spite of working for points, for petitions, they work to one end and never back out. Privately they may take the talents of one another and professional petitions, but they do not take in the general result, but what the audience wants. They work with painters in the way of paintings and conventions work by the musicians in the projections. And as to singing they take it. They tackle the big business, a direction, a judgment, and effects, which is very important. Attention was called to these columns in the work of this aptitude and usually no other. J. M.

The company is in winter quarters at Jacksonville, Fla. having closed after a successful season February 19. Manager Pat Chappelle is making arrangements for the coming season, as Mr. and Mrs. Pat Chappelle are at present stopping at 818 French street, Wilmington, Del., and are personally booking after his helpline the Pallman Company at Wilmington. "A Rabbit's Foot Company" will carry two cars this season and will have one of the finest sleeping cars ever used by any show. Several new faces will be seen in the coming new season. They will be the strongest of its kind, and a large hand and orchestra will be one of the features. Manager Chappelle has secured a new tent and seats, and the performers will have new costumes for street parade. All by invitation. To manager Chappelle at his Jacksonville address given in The Agr. as he is booking people daily "RAVE FROM THE RED MOON." The leading Montreal daily paper writes as follows "To the list of recent musical comedy successes special attention is called to Cole and Johnson in The Red Moon, the company we are all that advanced reports claimed them to be. On their opening night in Montreal they scored a big success. Should they return to Montreal, as we believe they must the Montreal pleasure-loving public extends to them the welcome extended to the flowers and song birds of spring time. The R. R. O. sign, for nine successive performances, ain't so awfully bad, is it. Mabel! Especially it having been a return engagement. Well, that's the business done in Providence R. I. week of March 8. Belle Morgan, our matron de wardrobe, says that a well-dressed man can congratulate his tailor, but a well-dressed chorus should congratulate the wardrobe mistress. Edgar Connor claims that when to clothe a authentica goes it's mostly to show her clothes. Our Six Six Soubrettes, headed by Daisy Brown, think he is aluring. Despite his mouth-watering description of "Bro'r Billy Poison" in de pan, wid sweet potatoes all around, Bob Cole will ever be remembroned as the "premier cliché of the gallicenter." Avery and Hart, vaudeville headliners, Keith's Theatre, Providence, R. J. week, March 6; were callers, on Olea and Anderson, Cincinnati, Cincinnati. THE NEW YORK AGE: THURSDAY, MARCH 18, 1909. Monterey, to be used by the eighteen wrestlers in his big hit, "On the Road to Monterey." In tearful accent Fannie Wise means the "sum of her little brown bear." Brid- dely Tebby has made break for the composition of Johnson. Bennie Smith, Daisy Brown, Bannie Brown, Pearl Taylor, Lottie Lee, Marion Petter and Loca Marshall wish to be known as the "Framing Peaches of the Red Moon Plane." J. Rosamond Johnson says it isn't good form to wish a beading young composer "many happy returns," returns from the piano and the drummer are happy ones to a foreword author. Ward comes from "Carry" B. Lewia, Louisville, Ky., that they opened the new year with a corkscrew. To drive away dull care one should hear that "optimistic quartet" composed of Sam Locas, Weaky Jenkins, Henry Gant and Bennie Jones in "Keep on Smiling." The song "would lose her reputation and job too," were she to see Bob Cole in one of his scenes in the second act of The Red Moon Company. BLACK PATTI NOTES. Our New Mexican tour was all that could be expected from a business stand-point as well as interesting沿途参杂 material. We were among the United States in wargons of all TON WALKER ING "BON BON BUDDY" primitive descriptions. Several members are on the sick list, including Jenette Murphy, Sallie Byrd, Tum Lockhart, Douglas Allen and George Day, due to the great altitude of the territory in which we have been playing. Standing room at Sante Fe, Rancho, Las Vegas, Alberquerque and Las Cruces was displayed, and the show pleased the audiences immensely and at advanced prices, too. Tim Owley is being given a great reaction in the second act, and it goes without saying that undoubtedly he is a favorite in this territory. Tim Owley is the guest of the hour, as it is his home in Los Angeles this week. The athletic club in the company has been changed to indoor club, owing to the Denver blizzard's effect on the members. The statue of Kit Carson is a thing of beauty in Santa Fe. The citizens point to it with pride to all visitors. It is a place of beauty around us in these parts, day and night, selling trinkets and begging food, etc., but owing to the inability of the members to analyze their looks and tell at a glance just what they are seeing, it is a unpleasant manner at all times—G. H. MUSICAL NOTES Miss Nelle Moore, New York's young and talented pianist, will appear in a piano recital at the Temple Forum, Richmond Hill, N. Y. Friday evening. She will be assisted by Mr Harry T. Burleigh One of the finest entertainments and dances held this season was given by the Lucy Lanye League at Manhattan Casino on Friday evening, March 12. The school in Macon, dn. is rapidly growing and doing excellent work. The program, under the direction of Miss Dora Cole, proved to be a great success. Miss Edith McKenna, dn. of Jersey City, rendered a "bounce" to the court, and a manner Miss Etta Cannon, of Jersey City, recited "Ben Hur's Chariot Race" in her usual strong dramatic style. The young girls who danced the Spanish dances deserve credit for the hard work they did in solo by Fr Soitz, was brilliantly rendered. The comedy, "Obstinate Family," a very clever and witty sketch, was well acted. The principals are: Mesra Hayes Peyor, Gerald Norman, Archie McKenna, Miss Dora Berry, becca Porter and Hattie Berry. The large audience was disappointed in the non-appearance of Miss Jackson, the associate principal of the school. It is thought that he from the front of the school has been delayed Dancing allowed the entertainment until the small hours of the morning. Watch for the advertisements of Music Publ NK AGE: THURSDAY, MAY HOW TO MAKE GOOD. (By Thee/ Pankey.) From personal experience and close observation, which are, I believe, good teachers, I am writing my views about the young Negro's opportunity on the stage; nor would I mean to intimate that the young Negro is successful than other young actors of the race. Aside from the musical achievements, the Negro has not made much of a record in dramatic art. Should any one attempt to write a history of the school, or to stage the stage before he could finish the sharpening oil to indicate such record, he would have to lay it down. The opportunity of the Negro in theatrical work is assured if the few who have been given a chance will apply rigidly to study and work and nightly discipline, so often offered as compliments and hospitality after the lights are out and the sceneries shifted. To the young man or woman who would succeed I would say, study past courses and look to the future; beware of the schooling and gambling. The infatuation for a good time has ruined many an applicant, who failed to realise he had little money and less knowledge of the profession in which he wished to shine. It is in wish to succeed, understand that if you must, and labor hard and incessantly. You should observe the business methods and tenacity of such men, as Cole and Johnson, Williams and Walker and Ernest Hogan, and past record of Sam Howell. You wish to succeed, understand that if you learn the secret? It is hard work, personal sacrifice and close application to their work. You may not approve of certain methods of these men, but they have succeeded, and it pays to structure instead of the one who has ever tried. The young man aspiring for the stage must win his way through work, determination, and not through social favor coming from carousel and the admiration of his peers. He must wreck the body and destroy the mind. I once knew a talented young man with ability to have become a musical director, but the avenues of good time were so narrow he failed, instead of working his way up to the number who cried. "There's no chance for the Negro!" He was of the kind who are satisfied with too little. I will admit that our opportunities for development are few, but we must so strive that we be appreciated. Let us portray and preserve traditions, humor and racial traits in so commendable a way that Negro plays, thrilling with past records of loyalties, conditions, interwoven with tradition, well-trained, and with a romance peculiarly our own, shall teach objectively that we can build nobly and well. THEATRICAL JOTTINGS Brown and Newarro are at Poll's, New Haven, Conn. Juniper and Hayes are at the Howard, Boston, Mass. Cooper and Bedison are at Keith's, Columbus, O.

Bass and Richardson are in Hallfax, N. S. Bass is singing "I'm Goin' Back to Nashville, Teen." Salle Lee is playing at Sheedy's Theatre, New London, Conn., and is one of the hits of the bill.

In Westerly R I S I is back in New York City. George W. Walker is expected in New York City from Lawrence. Ana this week. He will probably resume his part in Bandanna Land' next week. The Tom Fleicher Trish with Lloyd Henderson as straight man and Milgert Price as leading lady, opened on the Moztart time at Lancaster, Pa. Monday. Bandanna Land will be presented at the Majestic Theatre. Brooklyn last spring Williams and Walker played at this theatre to standing room at each performance. We do not know whether it is in the dress, the way she arranges her coiffure or what, but Hattie McIntosh, of the Bandanna Land Company is more atractive than ever in her part of "Lyntha" Joe Moore's New Orleans Minute剧 will open at Huber's Museum next Monday for a run. In the company will play for a few hours, Dr. Rose Wright, Gerald Miller, Smith and Rose, McKissick and Shadney, Annie Smith, Jimmie Worles, Devan and "Ham" J. Kimer Spyglass, lyric baritone, who has been to America for three years, will turn to America for a concert planned by his wife. He will call for Rotterdam, Holland, June 11. While here Mr. Spyglass will give a number of concerts in the large cities. Mimie Brown appears to advantage in the rendition of "Bed, Red Rose." Muriel Bingold and L. H. Sausbury's singing of "Down Among the Sugar Cane," assisted by chorus, should not be overlooked. The Five Musical Spillers are at the Fulton Theatre, Brooklyn. There is some likelihood of the act going over the Moart Circuit soon. Strange, but true to Murphy and Francis have been playing William Morris time for a number of weeks they have returned to the fold of the United Booking people. They have been given time ahead. Is the United Office waking up? Black and Jones have left the United people and are with William Morris. They have been playing over the Orpheum Circuit all winter, and arrived in New York a few days ago, opening at the American Theatre Monday. . . . Paul Stanley, white comedian and composer of the song "Ta Ra Ra Boom Dey," died Monday, in Denver, Colo., after a illness that lasted for five months. Stanley, whose real name was Somburg, lived in Denver with his wife since the San Francisco earthquake. He was reduced to straightened circumstances and his health was much impaired by the earthquake. Manager Willie Hammerstein, of the Victoria Theatre, has announced that Ummam Jabron Johnson will appear at the above-named theater on March 28. The performance will consist of a three-round sparring exhibition, illustrating some of the principal blows which won the championship. During the performance, James Jabron will appear at the American Theatre, only a stone's throw from the Victoria. . . . Billy McClain is not only active in the theatrical circles, but the following announcement shows that he is also engaged in the sporting world: "Billy McClain is the first colorado champion wrestler of the world, middle-weight division. It will be noted that this is the first colored champion wrestler the world has ever had, and it falls direct with Jack Johnson, who is the first colored heavy-weight fighter of the world." --- The Chocolate Drops are at the Bijou Theatre, Duluth, Minn. Last week the act opened over the Sullivan-Conaldine Circuit in Winnipeg with King and Theodore. The act being able to make good over the circuit that has refused to book colored acts for a number of years. At the first performance in Winnipeg the members of the three bows. We expect to hear of other colored acts going over the circuit soon --- In answer to the numerous inquiries about the Frog, we will say that already plans are being discussed relative to the members moving into their large and newly purchased chased, the opening to take place about May. It is also highly probable that during the summer, Washington, Baltimore, Philadelphia, Boston and New York will be the primary purchaser of the entertainment; that is if the vaudeville managers do not induce several of the Frog, by offering large and fancy salaries, to enter the vaudeville ranks. The Blibee (Ardz.) Daily Review commented on the Black Patti Troubedoubs in part as follows: "Black Patti was in the voice, and while not appearing as an actress, she was greeted by her audiences with enthusiasm each time she walked on the stair, and was accorded several encores. Sarah Greene and Billy Young both played their parts capably, the performance is one of the best, seeing nothing else than to get a hearty laugh at Tim Owley and to hear the nightingale of the colored race." The opening of a new popular price theatre with the play "Johnny Jones" for an attraction, with Lew Dockstader's Minstrels, playing at another house and the performers was the opposition to the Lincoln Company, Knoxville. Tenn., last week. Nevertheless the Lincoln Theatre did a good business, as the patrons of the little colored theatre showed that they were satisfied with the entertainment being of interest. At Tenn., Sam Gardner and pany repeated the "Blackville Strollers" with Sam Gardner in the leading role which he played with credit. This week the company is presenting S. Tutt Whitney's musical comedy "The Tenderfoot." His music by Homer Tutt and T. L. Corgell IN THE SPORTING WORLD Joe Gass Now in "Hus Been" Class EVERAL, of the sporting writers who have been involved in the game. saw the boxing exhibition last week in New York City between Joo Gans and his coach, and think that Gans could have knocked the Englishman out had he been so disposed and that no knockout was registered at the instance of the "Old Master" because of a previous arrangement Gans has been guilty of knocking out so many men in the ring during his disgrace when he does not make it possible for the count of ten to be in order. The first thought is that Gans has been faking when he falls to land a solar plexus. Such was not the case in the match when he was hit by Wladimir Klitschko's best to put the Briton out, and after the fight was heard to remark that he did score a knockout, but that the referrer showed a disposition to forget the teachings of his schooldays toward the end of the count and be taken to ten down. While recovered from the land of mud That Joe Gans is not the Gans of a few years ago is undatable. With much regret we must term him a "has been but one who will always be highly useful" and that Harrison Walking the "Old Master" has always been, and will always be extremely popular. Then he has many friends but not one of his colored friends who saw the match last week would express an opinion on either Joe Gans has some similarity and should return to the forking for good. Some of the writers are inclined to believe that Gans was not in much better physical condition when he fought Nelson. If such was the case, we are wondering just how much value should be attached to a character if he from Gans when the "Old Master" was all in it, was a case of taking candy from a baby, and he is not the great fighter some credit him of being. Return of Champion Jack Johnson. Jack Johnson, champion of the world, returned to media as a comedian himself for champion. As soon as he reached the United States he gave out an interview in which he told the world that as holder of the title he would dictate terms, but would not demand of any one such unreasonable condition as he was copied to order to get on a fight with, Tommy Buras. In the meantime, Jim Jeffries is stall- ing the public by doing road work and other forms of exercise and work to end the spread of pneumonia. He is a third day for Jeffries in John- son.

Allen brought this matter prominently before the body, and steps were taken immediately to systematize the work of organization. This work has been placed in the hands of a committee composed on Mr. John H. Atkins, Mr. Wilford H. Allen, and Mr. F. F. Allen. The committee appointed secretary Mr. Luther H. Smith, to look after the work subject to the committee's instructions. The plan tends toward a campaign of co-operation among the people to promote and foster Negro business enterprise and to provide classes. The severity of employment for colored people has lent an impetus to the movement of co-operation and the league is endowing to obtain the assistance of every man and woman of the race. The league will fulfill 80,000 colored people in the City of New York who spend approximately $6,000,000 a year, and set practically none of this is spent with members of the race who are in business.

Presiding Elder Biddle Returns—Hastleton Indicted for Murder. New Haven, March 8.—Rev. A.

He had not only made an enormously large addition to the membership of the society but also to the church proper by building on an addition which gives them a large, beautiful and commodo place of worship.

At a special session of the Criminal Superior Court, held last Saturday, March 0, the grand jury convened to hear the charges against James H. Hazelton, who is charged with the murder of his wife, Mary Hazelton, at 90 Eaton street, the 18th of December last. After the jury had deliberated and examined witnesses during the morgue hours just after 12 o'clock they brought a true or false order in charge of Hazelton's indictment. Hazelton's mild and jovial convenience bespoke anything but a murderer. After the commission of the crime it is alleged that Hazelton packed the body into a trunk, where it was found in the apartment over a month later. Hazelton jumped the town and was arrested but was arrested by New York detectives in that city and later brought here. Dr E. George Biddle, who was among the visitors at the inaugural parade, said the storm was one that would be long relegated to Washington as well as the outskirts. Sunday, March 14, at St. Luke's P. E.
