O1. XXII. No. 44. NO OBJECTION TO THE TENTH Negro Troop Now Quartered at Fort Ethan Allen Responsible for Storiesthat Have Been Coming From Burlington for Several Weeks WHITE NEWSPAPERS Pay High Tribute to Heroes of the Spanish-American War—No Attempt to Discriminate Against Soldiers. Special to THE NEW YORK AGR. BURLINGTON, Vt., Aug. 3—It has been a week since the arrival here of the Teenth Cavalry, and nothing has transpired since the quartering of the Negro troops at Fort Ethan Allen to substantiate the reports of a few weeks ago that the citizens of Burlington and adjacent towns would show opposition to the Negro soldiers coming to Vermont. So far the soldiers have been shown the greatest respect, and the great reception New York tendered them last week upon their arrival from the Philippines has brought about a feeling of admiration rather than one of disrespect for the members of the famous regiment. Upon investigation it has been learned that the various reports about the residents of Burlington being up in arms because a Negro regiment was to be quartered at Fort Ethan Allen was the work of a reporter who had more qualities of the Ananias order than he possessed brains and discretion. He took the opportunity to send in news which he knew would be accepted by the daily papers and create moment, little thinking of the injury was always done by the residents Burlington and the militants if the news was taken in their places, as was predicted. He sent a letter to a letter company and are on the best of terms. There has been no "Jim Crowing" in the places, as was predicted. Within the past few days the "Fighting Tenth" has been lauded by a large number of daily newspapers, among them being the Buffalo Times, New York Evening Post and the Cleveland Plain Dealer, as follows: Trox, N. Y., Press. "Negro troops are unwelcome in time of peace. Negro troops were most welcome in time of war. And many a time they proved their mettle on bloody fields of conflict "It is sickening to note such an exhibition of current prejudice based on color" "Perhaps the Negroes could be in better terms so far on their own advancement is concerned; but that isn't the point at issue." New York Evening World. The black soldiers who marched up Broadway are as good troopers as ever before, a horse. They are hardened, disciplined, brave men—militars all the way through. "You cannot make a man a soldier by putting a uniform on him and giving him a gun to carry. The process is much longer and harder than that. It parades a good deal of the process of making a good drought horse out of a coat that is of important difference, that you must mount a fine coodler and stepper as well as a draught horse. The soldier is not a soldier unless obedience jobs in him with pride, and impetuosity with soldier and dash with endurance. The Negro soldiers of the Tenth Cavalry possess this combination of qualities. They can fight and have no thought of the way the story is going to look in the patterns. They can endure, and claim victory. "They represent their race nobly, and they are patriotic Americans of whom all other Americans may be proud." New York Evening Post. "Recognition in this city of the solidly quality of the Tenth Cavalry, colored, was ample, and we are privately informed that advance rumors of prejudice and trouble in store for this regiment is quartered in Forth Atrium Allen, when it is stationed in Burlington, the work of the military incentive reporter. He published his dreams about race antipatias in a Burlington paper, which we believe since explained how little foundation they had in fact. But the patches, and we enclave in the Southern newspapers have been taking a deal of comfort from this proof that the North is just as intolerant of Negroes in the army as an enemy was Brownville, Tex. We remember Northern shortcomings in this regard. Our occasion to denounce them. But in this particular instance it is just as well to wait and see whether Vermont people suddenly abandon their old convictions. Some of the negro troopers may misbehave, just as soldiers do, but the remedy is sharp military discipline, not race ceasarism." Burlington, VI. News. "It seems to us extremely unfortunate—haded almost treason to the State—such an item should have been placed in the oldest dally in the State just as in the case of man theory was about to be taken. In favor of such a test it places Vermont actually in the class where the North battar, Soutbertners always have played famously, as capturing hungers. The Nero battar is a few at a time, for many weeks, mostly. THE NEW noncommissioned officers, securing quarters and getting ready for their sojourn here. So far as we have observed these young men of dark skin their bearing has been wholly proper. They look like respectable men and behave fully as well as any white officers of similar rank that we have seen since our university was built, and in hear about the soldiers of Uncle Sam from their former rendezvous is favorable, and they are said to be the best behaved troops in the army. No Jim Crow cars are needed in No Jim Crow cars are not going to plot out the theory and its past history of equality at this late day. The Negro troopers will be treated correctly as the new real Vermont setting down nothing to color, birthright, or previous condition—and giving the same recognition that we accord to soldiers of white skin in similar circumstances. The uniform of our own National Government ought to settle problems all questions we have to answer the unfortunate are to stap long upon an unworthy man. The Negro soldiers while here are our protectors and if they are ever seriously needed to do that service we have no doubt that our lives could be safely placed in their hands and good people will be offered a Negro soldier because of his color. Our State is on trial as well as the Negro trooper." Cleveland Plain Dealer. "The city of Burlington, Vt. is angry because the colored troopers of the Tenth Cavalry are to be assigned to Fort Ethan Allen, three miles from Burlington. Burlington does not want the colored soldiers in such close proximity does not want them to ride on the street cars, does not desire to have anything to do with them. Such is the reward dered by this Venom City, the best end and the best of troops that has light for the United States since the close of the Civil War. "The men of the Tenth Cavalry are the men who won the bloody battle of San Juan Hill. To many Americans the campaign of Santiago de Cuba may appear a joke. But it was no joke to men who took part in its efficiency, mandated, widely accepted by the fearful belief of the Cuban summer, soaked the rain, rick with fever, tired, almost starving, the American soldiers engaged in battle after battle with an enemy of undoubted bravery and ability. Not without complaint. The ridiculous incapacity of most of the leaders and the vicious negligence of the department were not overloaded by the volunteers who were employing their first nuns. But if the trained and hardened men of the Tenth Cavalry complained there is no record of it. "San Juan Hill is a low ridge overlooking the San Juan Valley, and on it the Spaniards were entrenched to block the approach of the American trio. At the Spanish left, Glen Lester found a hill with a steep slope, and he built a fortress there. He then built a fortress with with a settlement, and the sun was crowned by blockhouse and churchyards. "The 'Rough Riders' were in this charge, undoubtedly. But the men—not 'Rough Riders'—who took part in the fight, tell stories of how the lovely combination of broncho busters and gloved warriors from India and Newport wavered and faltered and would have borne it not been the example of the black troopers of the Tenth. These were the men who stormed the breastworks, who never filmed under the hottest fire, who bore up the 'Rough Riders' and gained for them the credit of winning the only important pitched battle fought by American troops since "65 The Tenth Cavalry had no one to blow and brag about them. They had no official press agent in a high place. Their commander wrote no books about how he conquered Spain. They have not held picturesque reunions, they have not been favored applicants for Federal jobs, they have not even been room heroes. They have merely professional soldiers who did the work they were paid for doing, and, quite as an agent, won the battle of San Juan Hill. "Since the war the Tenth has been here and there, and has just returned from long and efficient service in the Philippines. At Fort Ethan Allen the men will not have much to do, and will enjoy a period of well-earned rest. "These are the men whom the senator people of Burlington object to having a temporary neighbors. It would be but a display of sense and decency for Burlington to man the festival to welcome the soldiers so well fought for the American flag, who are above any others serving of honor at the hands of Americans." Buffalo Times. "A lot is gaid about 'color line' in this country. It will do us good to be reminded that there are a number of color lines, and that one of them is a color FIGHTING line.

UNITED BROTHERS OF FRIENDSHIP Split Into Factions at Tri-ennial Session In St. Paul FARMER AND GAINES Head Two Factions and Hold Sept arate Meetings—One Side Has Money, the Other the Charter. Special to THE NEW YORK AGE. St. PAUL, Minn. August 2—All is turmoil and confusion in the ranks of the United Brothers of Friendship, which held its sixteenth triennial session in this city from July 26 to the 30th. There are two factions in the order, one headed by Attorney Walter M. Farmer, of Chicago, Ill., and the other led by W A. Games, of Louisville, KY. Each faction held a separate convention, elected officers and selected its next meeting place. It appears that the Farmer faction holds the money and the Gaines faction the charter. Both sides claim to be in the right and the only regular organization. About eight hundred delegates were present from nearly every state in the Union. The largest delegations were from Texas, Oklahoma and Kentucky. The convention was called to order for Monday morning at 10 o'clock in the old State Capitol. Attorney Farmer and followers appeared on the scene promptly at 0 o'clock, but W A. Gaines and followers, with the assistance of F L. McGhee, finally gained a victory and secured possession of the building. The Farmer faction later met in the Elks Hall, 126 East Third street. An effort was made to get the two factions together, but to no good purpose. Each side contended that the other was in the wrong, and all attempts to bring about amicable relations failed. The following officers were elected by the Farmer faction: Walter, M. Farmer, of Illinois, national grand master, P. R. Hill, of Tennessee, deputy master, B. K. Bruce, of Kansas, grand master, Penais, Moran, T. White, of California; W. T. Blue, of Ohio; S. T. Pettigrew, of Missouri; J. F. Anderson, of Oklahoma, members of the finance committee. The faction succeeded in getting all its delegates from Texas with one exception Houston, Tex., was selected as the meeting place in 1912. The Gaines faction elected W. A Gaines, of Kentucky, as national grand master. Other officers were elected Rev. Jordan Chishua of Chicago, deputy national grand master, M. R. Perry, of Pine Bluff, Ark, national grand secretary, T. J Edwards, of Alabama, national grand treasurer, Financial committee—J W Wheeler, of Missouri, W D Johnson, of Kentucky, and J W Weatherford of Texas. The Gaines faction will meet in Muskogee, Okla., 1912 Negro in Cuban Cabinet. Special to The New York Ace. HAVANA, July 29—Following a conference to-day all the members of the Cabinet except Secretary of Justice Divino resigned.

Special to THE NEW YORK AGE Special to the TW St. Louis, Mo. Aug 2—Charles H. Moore, national organizer of the National Negro Business League, addressed sixty members of the local Negro Business League last night at the Forum Club. 2708 Pine street, relative to the next meeting of the National Convention of the League, in Lousville, Ky. August 18 to 20. Prof. Moore has canvassed seven of the Western and Southern States since the first if the year and stated last night that he found there was a great deal of interest being taken in the national meeting, especially in the South, that eleven Negro banks in Mississippi will send delegates and fifty Negro banks from all parts of the country will send delegates. Over 800 local leagues are already listed, and the number is expected to reach 800. The St. Louis league will meet this week at the Colored Y. M. C. A. building. 2702 Lawton avenue, to elect delegates. To Be Built by Members of Race Owing to Drawing in the Green Line" by White Chaufort Special to The New York Times Lort Worth, Tex. — Fort Worth will soon enjoy the introduction of having the first Negro bridge in Texas. The Negro city of this city have gotten together to arrange arranging at 5,000 feet capitalized at $700. The company will put into service four antique Negroes and build a bridge. The company has teamed with to the color line design of chaufeurs, who have also been carrying Negroes when they were built to ride. Complaint was made by the leading garage owners that the termination was being made on new color. The proprietor, realizing the Negroes were good patrons of the auto, and demeaning that their status was as good as that of anyone he appointed up a large and handsome market for the exclusive use of the city. He pointed a Negro chauffeur to drive the instrument, and the new driver received the first seat, and was instructed to take his machine out of the barn than the white children took the auto out of this house, and instructed him to seek another trade. There were wild rumors afloat that the white chauffeurs handled the driver and his machine rather roughly, but an investigation revealed that such was not the case, as the only desire of the men seemed to be to keep the Negroes out of the auto-driving field. There was no mistaking the outside of the men on this point, however, and the proprietor promptly dismissed the Negro driver in order to present a strike on the part of his white employees. When complaint was made by the Negroes on their right, the matter the proprietor of the mature advised them that the best solution of the matter lay in their getting together, forming a stock company and installing a small garage of their own and employing their own men to operate the machines. The suggestion was taken up at once and Saturday working witnessed the first effort by the Negroes in this direction. The proprietors met with sufficient encouragement to lay plans for the garage and declare that something like this would be put into the proposition. New Haven, Conn. 2-1 That Lawson Alexander, 43 years old, does not see any reason to an ontogenian should not become a smiling, light-hearted groom, was demonstrated last week when he was married to Miss Mary Benham, 49 years old.

Negro pupils here have been segregated since here the Civil War. The committee votede abandon the Commerce Street Sool, it being pointed out that the audience has been falling off gradual until, at the time the report was me, only seventy-eight pupils remained.

CATHOLIC SCHOOL FOR NEGROES Ground Broken for Building to be Erected in Jackson, MIdf Special to THE NEW YORK AQE JACKSON, Miss, August 2. There will soon be a Catholic school for Negroes in this city. Last week ground was broken for the erection of a building to be located in the northern portion of the city. The structure is being erected under the auspices of a Catholic society located in New York City, and is to cost $15,000. The movement was started several months ago by Father Heick, a priest who came here for the purpose, supplied with ample funds by the parent society. He purchased six lots near a section populated by white people, and there was a serious objection on their part to the building of the school there. The opposition was so strong as to cause the sale of the property and the purchase of another lot 580 by 160 feet further west and in a section peopled by Negroes exclusively. In the meantime the purposes of the society have become better known and the objection to the establishment of such a school in the city has subsided. In fact, it has been pointed out that in other cities they have had a beneficial and no evil effects. Vicksburg has just such a school three years old, which has an attendance of about 150 students. There, it is said, the results have thus far been satisfactory. It has relieved the congested condition of the public schools for Negroes, and those who are being taught, at small expense, are apparently benefited thereby, with no apparent evil effects. The school is to teach along religious and moral lines, as well as the regular literary courses, and later on may attach industrial features. The faculty will be made up of Catholic Sisters from the North, who will see to it that no Negro child worthy of the charity will be turned away, even though they may be unable to pay the small tuition to be charged CONNECTIONAL COUNCIL TO MEET.

Ransom Suggests Idea From the Pulpit SOLUTION GIVEN For Putting Down Lawlessness Among Negroes and Stopping Fights With Policemen RECENT DISTURBANCES Do the Race Much Harm—Negro Police Officers Have Good Record in Other Large Cities. Rev Reverdy C Ransom, pastor of Bethel A M F Church, West 25th street, between 7th and 8th avenues, made a strong plea for law and order and the appointment of Negroes on the police force in New York City at his Sunday morning's services. A large congregation listened to his remarks with marked attention and frequently applauded. The prevalence of lawlessness among certain classes of Negroes in New York City within the past week was responsible for Rev Mr Ransom's timely talk and it was clearly shown that the law-abiding Negroes of the city heartily agree with him. According to Rev Mr Ransom, the fighting of police and showing in other ways the utter disregard for law and order by a certain Negro element is REV REVERDY C. RANSOM Pastor Bethel A. M. E. Church even worse than the decision rendered a short time ago by Justice Dugro. The effect of such lawless exhibitions does not tend to assist the race in its progress, he said Rev Mr Ransom's solution to the problem of how to put down the lawless Negro element and stopights between Negroes and police officers is by making Negroes members of the police force and stationing them in the Negro districts. The argument is advanced that Philadelphia, Chicago and other large cities have Negro policemen and that the colored officers not only preserve the law but have very little trouble with the lawless Negro Appeals to Law-Abiding Element. During Rev Mr Ransom's plea for law and order he said, in part "The time has come when the decent, self-respecting and law-abiding members of the race should take a strong stand against the lawless Negroes of New York City. Such outbreaks as those that have occurred recently do to injure the name of the New York Negro than Justice Dugro or others. "We who are continuously denouncing the whites should show our honesty, broad mindedness and sincere desire to see that the laws are not broken by being as equally willing to condemn and seek to bring to justice the disreputable members of the race "These bad Negroes are doing us more injury than Justice Dugro or others who cast reflections upon us, and the churches and women's organizations should join hands to rescue the good name of the race from those who are bringing it into disrepute "Chicago has three hundred Negro police We need in New York City at least two hundred to be distributed as patrolmen, plain clothes men and detectives They can do far more to help the situation than under present conditions. This should be done in the interest of public morals." Denounce Lawless Element. Law-abiding Negroes throughout New York City are bitterly denouncing the recent misconduct of the lawless element. In Harlem the police had a number of fights with Negroes within two or three days. To see in the daily papers such headlines as "Police in Pierce Battle With Mob of Angry Negroes" and "Blacks Vent Rage on One Policeman!" have been very frequent. In some instances it is well known that the police provide trouble, but in the recent disturbances the Negroes have usually started the alterations by COMMITTEE MAKES REPORT List Shows Names of Subscribers Who Contributed to Entertainment of Soldiers.

In Letter to Attorney Wheaton Declares Soldiers Were Magnificently Entertained. Attorney Frank Wheaton has received a letter from Booker T. Washington congratulating him and the other members of the committee on the successful entertainment of the Tenth Cavalry. At the time Dr Washington was unable to speak at the reception to the soldiers, as requested, as he was out of the city The letter: Huntington, L. I. N. Y., July 28, 1909. Mr. FRANK WHEATON. I regret that I was absent from home when your letter of July 17 came inviting me to be present at the reception to be given to the Tenth United States Cavalry in New York City. While I could not accept this invitation owing to the fact that I had to be in Tuskegee, I want to take advantage of oppose to my request to join your workers as well as the colored citizens of New York generally, for the magnificent manner in which the Tenth Cavalry was received and also to congratulate you upon the fine display which was made on the streets and the manner in which the public was impressed Since returning to the United States to single with a good many business men in New York, and everywhere the feeling of satisfaction was expressed, and all referred to the good that will be accomplished in the improvement of public sentiment so far as the Negro is concerned. No event in recent years has done more to improve the situation in it than the sight of the famous Tenth Cavalry marching through the streets of our metropolitan city. The fact that Wall street, Fifth avenue and Broadway would cheer a Negro regiment will make communities that speak slightly of Negro troops and fear their presence feel ashamed that the New York press has been so unanimous in praise of any event, both in news and editorial columns, as it has been in reference to this reception One of the elements in connection with the Tenth Cavalry that impressed me most was the statement made that the notwithstanding the troops were paid off on shipboard, on Saturday night, on Monday morning every one of the G34 members was present at roll call. This fact within itself exhibits a degree of pride and of high moral character that is possessed by few soldiers of any race or of any color. I congratulate you again that you saw this great opportunity to honor this regiment and help our race, and were not slow to take advantage of it. Yours very truly.

LET CONGRESSMEN BEWARE. Our members of Congress who live in districts in the North where the Negro holds the balance of power should not lose sight of what is going on in certain sections of the South. Negro officeholders are being removed from office simply because they are Negroes in many places, and not because they have not done their duty. A few months before election it is the habit of members of Congress in the North to make special appeals to the Negro for his vote Unless a change is brought about, we fear that many of these appeals will be made in vain in the coming election Congressman Bennett, Olcott and Parsons, of New York, and many others may just as well understand that if the Republican party is going to be against the Negro in the South, the Negro will be against the Republican party in the North, and Congressmen in the North will not find it so easy in the future as they have in the past to control the Negro vote simply by the distribution of a few dollars and the making of a few speeches. Most of the unfortunate work of removing Negro officials in the South is being done without the knowledge or consent of President Taft. It is impossible for him to keep up with all such matters, but, nevertheless, the effect we fear is going to be most hurtful. We express now the same opinion which we have always held, that The Age has the greatest faith in the sincerity, honesty and good intentions of President Taft, and in the end we believe that he will justify the faith which the Negroes have placed in him. Nevertheless, while he is so bustily engaged with the tariff we feel quite sure that a number of little men are doing harmful work and they should be stopped. BUSINESS LEAGUE'S BOARD. Mutterings come to us from several sources to the effect that a change will be demanded at the Louisville meeting of The National Negro Business League, in the official board. It is stated that several members of the Executive Committee have held their positions for a good many years and that the time has come for them to give place to somebody else, mainly for the reason that in several cases these individual members have exerted little or no influence in working up interest among the colored people in their States in the League. It is claimed that the States that have active organizations and send delegations to The National League ought to be represented on the official board. We presume this will be one of the interesting questions to be solved at Louisville ITALIAN CONQUEROR DEAD. Judged either by his valor and his virtue or by his achievements. General Ras Makonnen, the dead Abyssinian warrior, was one of the great generals of his day and time Exercising the chief command in the battle of Adowa in 1806, it was through his strategy and valor that the Italians were routed., and Abyssinia, that great Negro African kingdom, has remained free and independent. Out of an invading army of about 28,000 men, the Italians there lost half their officers and fully a third of their men. So disastrous was the final rout that not an Italian of one division was left to tell the story. Abyssinia to-day enjoys a measure of respect from Europe that insures a hearing for the voice of King Menelik The name of Abyssinia is to-day a fierce curse word in Italy The stable kingdom is making commendable progress in civilization Ras Makonnen was a gentleman as well as a fighting fiend and strategist. He was universally praised as a courteous, broad-minded man. Several times during the Italian war he granted the enemy favorable terms in protecting prisoners and humaney caring for the sick and wounded. His foresight is shown, in that three years previous to the war he had been storing food and perfecting his military organization. With a disciplined and planned-out precision, he fought the battle of Adowa with consummate skill and strategy, confusing and cutting the Italians to pieces. Gen. Ras Makonnen, like Toussaint, L'Ouverture, must go down in history as the savior of his country and a great general. THE GEORGIA STRIKE AGAIN. The attention of the country and of our race especially, cannot be called too often to the fact that the recent decision of the arbitrators which placed the Negro firemen in Georgia upon the same footing with the white firemen was rendered by Southern white men Chancellor Barrows, of Georgia, and Hon. Hilary A Herbert, of Alabama, deserve especial credit for setting the country an example in the direction of a square deal and fair play for the Negro. We wonder if the board had been composed of Northern people would they have been so courageous --- STONE AND A GENTLEMAN STONE AND A GENTLEMAN. Senator Stone, of Missouri, called by those who know him best "Gumshoe Bill," for the first time in many years has gotten his name in the public print. During all the sessions of Congress in recent months nothing has been heard from Senator Stone for the reason that he had nothing to say. At last he has been given some publicity. Senator Stone wanted a drink of whisky, wanted it bad, wanted it quickly. The colored water on the Pullman car did not get it quick enough and "Gumshoe Bill," as ruffians usually do, tried to get satisfaction with his fists. The next day the case was tried before a magistrate in Baltimore, who proved himself sa lawless and wanting in the qualities of a gentleman as well as in the qualities of a law-abiding official as Senator Stone. While both Senator Stone and the magistrate exhibited the qualities of ruffians and anarchists, the wafter controlled himself and appealed to the majesty of the law for his vindication. There were two ruffians—both white. There was one gentleman in the affair, he was the Negro waiter. Senator Stone has not learned yet that the true gentleman always offers to be served after others, not before them. The ruffian and the uncultivated man want to be served first. The cultured man afterwards. While speaking of this Negro waiter we are tempted to add that no one who travels on a Pullman car or receives service in a dining car can fail to note the thoughtfulness, courtesy, patience and self-control exhibited by the hardworking Pullman car porters and waiters. Instead of being insulted and brow-beaten by a ruffian like Senator Stone, these men should be thanked for the service which they are constantly rendering the public. --- THE TWENTY-FOURTH INFANTRY THE TWENTY-FOURTH INFANTRY. "Then came the Negro Twenty-fourth Infantry from Sackett's Harbor They made a splendid appearance. They seemed to understand fully that President Taft was looking at them, and in the grand stand there were many murmurs about Brownsville The President was impassive, but the general verdict of the onlookers was that no regiment of regulars of the United States Army ever made a smarter aid a more soldierly appearance at a review by the President than did those Negro soldiers led by their white officers They got great applause." This picturesque account of the "Brownsville" regiment's part in the Plattsburg, N Y, review on July 7 was taken from the Detroit Free Press. This account indicates not only the striking fairness of that great western journal, but also the return of that Negro regiment to popular favor. Ever since the regrettable Texas incident, it has been under the cloud of public suspicion, due very largely to the unfairness of the press. Every molehill of its past offense was magnified into a mountain of unworthiness. Because the Texas case has not been made out against it and because of the reports on its splendid department at Sackett's Harbor, the Twenty fourth Infantry is again coming into its own, one of the very best regiments in the service of Uncle Sam. TWO NEGRO BOYS. There are two remarkable Negro boys in this country. There are others, but we are speaking now of these two especially. One of them lives in Charleston, S C., the other lives in Key West, Fla. The name of the Charleston boy is L S Reeder. The name of the Key West boy is Northern S H T Roberts. We have been doing business with these boys for sometime. They are first-class, up-to-date, reliable business boys. They keep their word. They pay their debts. Mr. Reeder in Charleston sells 250 copies of The Age every week. Mr Roberts in Key West sells 140 copies of The Age every week. They not only sell, but they remit promptly. If the country were filled with such Negro boys and men there would be little race problem to solve. Many men and women older than these boys could learn lessons of importance from them. THE TROUBLE IN HARLEM. THE TROUBLE IN HARLEM. We have not one word to say in defense or extenuation of the disgraceful outbreakings of the Negroes in Harlem against the police. The principals in the light Thursday night were thoroughly bad. The resentment of the loathing Negroes of 187th street Sunday afternoon against the policeman performing his duty was entirely uncalled for and vicious. The Negro has copied this method of resisting the law from the foreign colonies in New York, and it is to be vigorously condemned by every respectable and race-loving Negro. Doubledless there is an occasional policeman over-meddlesome, mean and authoritative. That in no wise justifies the mobilizing of Negroes to vent their rage upon him Complaints to the proper authorities will be heard. The Negro, above all others, has suffered by reason of the mob's interference with the due process of law He, above all others, should uphold the supremacy of the law He, above all others, should assist the law in ridding him of his burden of bad characters. A Negro rowdy or criminal should get neither sympathy nor protection from respectable Negroes Time and again we have warned the Negroes in this very section concerning the conduct of their young men on the corners We have asked the respectable Negroes, the preachers and leaders in this section to crusade against the very bad practice of loitering and congregating on the streets The obstruction of the sidewalks by rough and idle Negroes, their loud and indecent language, not, only make conditions hard for them, but hurt seriously the race It advertises the Negro community to both the white residents and passersby as an undesirable community Negro youth, like the youth of every other race, are more mischievous and less respectable collectively than individually. Agfaun, we ask the Negroes in every Negro community of this city to keep the young men and women off the streets We ask every Negro to uphold and respect the majesty of the law --- THE TENTH CAVALRY. When the gallant Tenth Cavalry marched through the principal streets of New York a few days ago, every man in the city with African blood in his veins felt himself honored. It was a proud moment for the Negroes throughout the country. This regiment of soldiers reflects the highest honor not only upon itself and the army service in general but upon our entire race and the country. They certainly bore themselves during their stay in New York City with the greatest degree of credit, and from every source we have heard nothing but words of praise and commendation on the reception given them by the citizens of New York and the manner in which the troops conducted themselves. --- THE ASSIGNMENT OF J. H. LEWIS. The news of the assignment of J H Lewis, of Boston, is of interest to our entire race. Mr Lewis has had a remarkable career, entering the field of merchant tailoring soon after the war, starting in poverty, he gradually rose to the highest position in his line of business in the city of Boston. While the change in Mr Lewis' business affairs is deeply regretted, still it should be kept in mind that he has wrought a great service for his race in holding out so long in the midst of severe competition and rivalry. It is to be hoped that Mr Lewis will not lose spirit and courage. William English Walling. the Socialist, who started out to settle the troubles of the Negro, seems now to have troubles of his own He is being sued by a young French woman for $100,000 for breach of promise Mr Walling is at the head of the Committee of Forty. --- EDITORIAL AFTERTHOUGHTS: Harris Dixon, of Vicksburg, in a current magazine article, declares that the South disfranchises the Negro because of his lack of education and responsibility, but that as the Negro is rapidly getting education and responsibility, the South will soon have to find another adequate disqualification Which is it now, is the South disfranchising the Negro because he is a Negro or is the Judge something worse than inconsistent? The Mayor of Burlington, Vermont, announced that his citizens were confident expecting trouble when the Fighting Tenth arrived Now, Mr Mayor, it is a very bad thing for people to look for trouble, as never yet have people earnestly looking for such failed to find it in quantities like the water which floweth from living springs. "Gum-Shoe Bill" Stone, of Missouri, is asking for more "Scotch" and more chaser assaulted the Pullman porter, Lawrence Brown, and was promptly vindicated by the Baltimore Justice Grannan, because the Justice said he knew just how it feels. Rum, Romanism and Rebellion! Virginia, Republicans, as the enemy has asserted concerning the entire party, have been riding the Negro, and now are facing him on the outside. Now the Negroes are getting together on the outside, which is only human nature. Virginia Negroes are also keen judges of human nature. Human nature is all right, but it is human nature. Alexander D. Camphor illustrates perfectly the conservative character of the African in Part II of his recent book on Africa, entitled "Missionary Sketches and Folk-Lore," when he quotes the African proverb, "The Hen says: We will walk after him that has something." In America, the hen would use a faster motion "after him that has something." Wall Street actually vied with the colored population in the warmth of its greeting to the Tenth Cavalry Now, people talk about the lack of sentiment in Wall Street, and yet it may be that Wall Street looks upon Negroes and Negro soldiers as the Pratorian guard of capital Shams on Vermont! It is to be hoped that the people of Burlington, Vt., will be shamed from their foolish opposition to having the Tenth Regiment stationed at Fort than Allen by the cordial reception was extended to those colored soldiers on their landing in this city yesterday. If Burlington were a Southern city the attitude taken there would be easily understood and reasonable, because of local conditions. But the idea that 600 colored soldiers of good record would be a northern town of 20,000 people too perverse to be flattened to patiently. Now that the real people in Vermont have had time to take breath, it is to be hoped they will have the grace to be ashamed of the protests which have been made in their town. If they behave as well the name of the Tenth Regiment for trouble in the neighborhood of Fort Ethan Allen will be of the slightest — Brooklyn Daily Eagle. Stone's Judge Beata Dogberry If a comparison were instituted between Dogberry and his Baltimore counterpart, before whom Senator Stone was twenty acquitted of assault, it would be decidedly in favor of the original. Not in vain does the prisoner at the bar in Maryland plead for acquittal on the assault. It is true that attenuating evidence could be urged for slapping a Pullman porter Senator Stone had explicitly ordered a drink of Scotch and a large tumbler of water. The whiskey was brought along with a small glass containing some water. This of itself, would upon the outraged dignity of the porter from Missouri was an unconscionable delay in serving his chops. The Senator "wanted to know," and his chaste interrogatories were shrouded in dashes and asterisks. The blow followed, and the utterance was killed to the bar of Baltimore, not unlike the fullness of an impartial interrogation. The weary Solos from Missouri needed not to plead the case; the community from arrest, war, and arrest and also encountered the uncrowds and presented the offences of Pullman porter, the defendant was discharged. Now let us hope the defendant was deceased and arms give place to the toga—New York Evening Post. PLAYING WITH THE FIRE New York World is Radical on Taft's Attention to Brussels on South Attempt to break Solid South. Responding to the President's appeal for reorganization in the South, the Republican Convention in the South convention this week at Richmond. The one distinguishing feature of the gathering and the proceedings has been the absence of Negroes and the evident purpose to exclude them from the organization. This appears to be in harmony with Mr Taft's plans. Speaking at New York in December last, he approved the laws which deny the ballot to the great mass of the blacks. At Howard University in May last he deprecated too much education men. Soon after he asumed the President's role and no Negroes would be appointed to office against the wishes of the whites. For five months past colored men have found little political encouragement at the White House. Even the Interstate Commerce Commission has ruled that they not discriminate on the railway trains of the South. The President's experiment would be interesting in any case, it is particularly so because of its daring and its novelty, proceeding from a Republican. The President will announce that the colored voters of Virginia will organize a party of their own. If their brethren at the North follow their example, Republicanism in its form will do without troubling itself about the solid South. The New York World ON TO LOUISVILLE Kentucky White and Blacks Co- operating - Reduced Rates The National Negro Business League will convene in Louisville, Ky., August 18, 19 and 20. The Citizens' Committee have about perfected their arrangements for the meeting.

THE BROWN AND THE BLUE. Out from your homes, ye patriots all! With son of Ethiopia true! With son of Anglo-single call, At the line of heroes, bred and tall, The brown that wears the blue; From distant Orient liles they come To the sea, trump and sounding drum Salute them, trump and sounding drum salute them, heart and hand Old Glory's strips are shining red With our good soldiers' gore Since Attucks fell and Salem bled, Black attacks'neath its folds have led To the sea, trump and sounding drum At Pillow and Wagner's pellish fray On San Juan's blazing hill And the blood that doused at El Caney Has drenched it deeper still What though an envious hate and pride Honors us in their bans! What though our wrath can be denied! One glory they can never hide— We are Americans! What though our dangers rapidly reach Across the nations' sky We hurt our lives into the breach To suffer, bleed and die By Aubrey Bowser, at Reception to Tenth Cavalry WHAT THE NEGRO PRESS HAS TO SAY The Southern press has heard that there is opposition to the quartering of colored soldiers in Vermont Here is cause for joy by the advocates of race prejudice everywhere, especially if the race to be proscribed is the Negro — The Dallas Express Is August 2 Enemigation Day? No, it is not. The first of August is celebrated by the Negro subjects of Great Britain as the day when Freedom came to them. Our people seem to have no definite date for celebrations. In some sections September 22 is observed, in others January 1, and still others dates before that. The Negro Association of Colored Men has always observed September 22. But it is their desire to make an all-day affair of the occasion and use one of the parks September, in this section, is uncertain. It might be 100 degrees in the shade and then again it might be below freezing. January is intolerable. February 2 is a day and a day is far better than no day. It is going to be a great day this year — The Cleveland Journal The vicious, worthless, loud-mouth, illogic good-for-nothing Afro-American retards our progress more than all other things combined. They meet every going out and incoming train. You can hardly gather, but you discover this chase on the street corner holding forth to the white people they represent the Afro-American race, when in fact they represent nothing. It is up to every well-thinking member of the race to get a chance himself and help to stamp out the worthless element — The Cadiz (Ky) Reformer There is strong demand for labor in all agricultural districts, with good wages and promise of permanent employment and for women and girls in the canning and meat industries over the State is especially urgent. Colonization effort is receiving great impetus, and many desirable settlers are coming to all parts of the State. Increased inquiry regarding California is noted throughout the East and in Europe. The slaves in Slovenia are being formed to locate in the State — The Oakland (Cal.) Sunshine Within the past several weeks several conventions of secret societies of the Pacific Northwest have been held. These delegates, sent by their lodges in the inns, order first, and then individual, fellow orders first, and posed to let peace and harmony reign and brotherly love continue, but ali said to relate, in each instance the convention halls were the scenes of strife and discord. The last for office, the greed for power, the great "1 ams," overshadowed and obliterated the good for general order. What manner of man is it who wilfully and intentionally forsakes a public trust in order to satisfy his own craving selfishness? Portland (Ore) Adocatec. The Alabaman rises to make a motion that the National Business League will hold its next session in Montgomery. Ala. Montgomery has the cleanest streets, the prettiest women, the most intelligent citizens, the most beautiful people found anywhere in the South, and we can give the business men a reception such as they have never had before. We urge Montgomery citizens to go after this "plum" as it will bring many of the leading men of our race and thousands of others into this way. The Colored Alabaman. It is surprising as well as irregular for churches as well as lodges and other fraternal organizations to so quickly air their differences in the courts. When they arise why not settle them in the organization or at least attempt to do so before dragging them before the public. Nine times out of ten you may be able to arrive at an amenable settlement with the clergy. At any rate matters should be thoroughly investigated before such steps are taken. The Piedmont Adocate Whatever view one may entertain personally as to aggravation for assault caused by a incoherently slow and indifferent water man, all must agree that it is a serious mission for a court of justice to speak people to hand down as a decision that more woke by way of insult or otherwise would justify a man in striking another. From time unmemorized it has been the spirit and the practice of English storking courts to refrain from speaking people to hand down as a decision for striking or battering another. President and local reasoning however were thrown to the winds of Wednesday afternoon when a certain justice had before him the task of cleaning a certain imminent attacker, known to the profession as "Thun Shoe Roll." The Rattlare Times We are yet wondering what the Pullman man doing a car porter was doing when Senator Stone was pummelling him. His humility under trying circumstances was surprising and his wisdom in getting out that warrant above all criticism. It would be well for Lawrence O. Brown to get a life size portrait of Senator William I. Stone and suspend it in his parlor with this inscription underneath. Seat of Senator Wallum I. Stone who descended from his seat in the United States Senate, rode a car in a cabhouse and sat in the prisoner's dock as a felon for assulting me. Peace to his ashes rest for his soul." — The Richmond Planet The African Methodist Episcopal bishop, who instituted the case against the Southern Railroad before the Interstate Commerce Commission collected money from colored men to fight the case, and the Justice Department conceded the case out of court as their attorney. Why did they not at least employ a colored attorney as an associate? The poorest colored attorney to be found could not have made a more sorry failure than did this white attorney. These men, like Michelle Bollway, off their race, are preaching union to them every Sunday, and yet take their money and employ an opponent to help them lose their case.—The Washington Bea. At this season of the war The Department experiences considerable difficulty in selecting places to station Negro troops. If we are to believe what the Burlington Free Press has to say, the Pilgrim Borough Council's Tenth cavalry is to be sent to Fort Ethan Allen. Now as a matter of fact, the Burlington Free Press voices the sentiments of a baker's dozen. We have it from reliable sources that the business men, hotelkeepers, sashokeepers and other people in the presence of the soldiers, so everything you see in the paper should be taken with a few grains of salt, especially if it relates to the Negro The Providence Advance The most successful administrators of the world have been through a classical course of education, declares the Boston Post. The Association with the classic schools of Boston, wrote, gives a breadth to the thought and a heroism to the heart that no merely technical training can impart Let us teach our children to run a lathe and take an engine apart, but let us not ignore the clarion call of Cicero and but brain has two lobes One is as important as the other--The Python World --- "In union there is strength." This trite and commonplace maxim comprehends the philosophy of the greatest human success and those sublime achievements which are eternal monuments to the genius of man. The hardened man has not fully learned the method of purpose or organization. He is yet a novice in this great world of action, where the ideal civilization, for which mankind is striving, comprehends the greatest economy of time and energy. Therefore, such a subject as race organization is one that closely concerns us and is allied to our supreme welfare -- The Philadelphia Tribune The fact that the firm of Tandy & Byrd was continually employed by contractors on large and important buildings shows that the firm was competent and gave perfect satisfaction and also demonstrates the fact that the white business men of the South are free from industrial prejudice and will give the Negro an opportunity when found worthy and competent. So take note of these facts, forward to take note of these facts, following in the various industrial examples of the firm Tandy & Byrd -- The Richmond (Ky) Sentinel GEORGIA'S CHIVALRY PARTIAL Post Ask If Chivalry Statute Includes Negro Women. Southern society is, of course, as compared, with French society, provincial, and has the qualities and defects of provinciality. Henry James, in one of his essays, writing of Ibsen, speaks of the fineness and delicacy which are often the characteristic of a well-bent thing, instead of publicity of a great center. It is, perhaps on that account, lacking in the tender and fiery chivalry so characteristic of the Southern man. But yet no Southerner could be more chivalrous toward his mother than is your Frenchman, who may be the friend or the friend of a wife. Chivalry toward women is a fateful thing, and it is all the more beautiful if it is founded on the facts. Practically it is well, however for men not to put women higher than they really are for if they realize that women are will demand or weak, the men will demand or strong of women of their women in matters of social conduct. Many a man has permitted himself to do a weak or ugly thing just because of his high ideal of women; he has expected the goddess to look after the moral welfare of them both, and has given up the duty of protecting them, namely, the goddess is not always equal to the double responsibility. This mistake is not made by your Frenchman. When he has chivalry, it is founded on a rock. Southern chivalry, we repeat, is a beautiful thing, and the act of the Georgia Senate is not unpleasing; but we wonder what force what lives in every Southern heart, and, incidentally, we wonder if the Negro women of the South will be included in the administration and working out of the law$^2$ - The New York Evening Post. Knaves and Fools. To the Editor of THE NEW YORK AGE The writer has not troubled you for same time, but once in a while he likes to write in ink and fling abroad a few thoughts. This is the sally season in Washington. The knives and the fools alike are trying themselves. It is pretty hard to designate, however, under which head the preocious Washington correspondent for Mr. H Murray who comes by the Mt. Murray burglar is a clerk in the War Department under Secretary Dickinson, seems to be trying to achieve the privilege of being designated under both of these heads. Not content with albusing and misrepresenting President Taft, members of his Cabinet, the Board of the National Association of Columbia and the Assistant District of Columbia, he has now begun a campaign of abuse on the Negro bishops of the country. Murray is said to have a college education but if so, he seems afraid to trust himself to earn an independent living, contenting himself with serving as a clerk on his place that any ordinary school would not have any constant vilification of the President of the United States and prominent black people in Washington and elsewhere is evidence of his littleness and weakness. The writer houses that Murray will soon be given something to do in some department that the government or somewhere else that the government or more of his activities and activities. As indicative of his cowardice it may be mentioned that while he pretends to be thoroughly indignant that the colored bishops working in the South should ride sideways up a hill for every day in fact they are for that reason riding to and from his home in Alexandria, Va to Washington in a separate car. Not only this when he goes to the theatre he is also separated from white people by the District of Columbia where he works. The bishops are restaurant. The whole crux of the complaint of man like Murray, it seems grows out of the fact that they cannot be white people. They are ashamed of their race and want to get away from it. The bishops are not bad but rather it seems ride in a coach with third class white people than ride in a coach with first class Negroes. He criticizes the bishops for the man in which they get their meals while riding in the South the averageeling in the South the how get his meals and where he would be ride? Murray seems to be able to do nothing except to attempt to tear down some successful member of his race or misrepresent some member of his race. Instead of encouraging and helping forward the amabilishee educated man like Roscoe R. Murray, Murray presents his him and strength in trying to vilify abuse and misrepresent him. Murray presents a good example of why many people are becoming disgusted with college education for the Negro. They point to such men as he and ask if he is a typical representative of college education upon Negroes. He shall continue this discussion from gesture who are candidate for designation under one of the other heads above mentioned. Washington, D. C. August 1 Says Henderson—Church Hummelst, "Would Respect a 'Han' of my college To the Editor of THE NEW YORK ACR: IN THE ORDINARY OF THE NEW YORK ACADEMY In the ordinary Negro the white man simply sees a faulty reflection of himself from an imperfect mirror. The average Negro is simply what he has learned to be from his contact, with the white man. There is many a dignified judge whose department on the bench is far different from what it is in the morning when he puts on his shirt and chases an elusive collar button. If the judge sees himself imitated as he is during off hours he gets mad and calls his second self "nigger" If he sees some "big gun" taking off his court house arrest, he gets mad again and calls that imitation of himself "stuck-up nigger" But all the same the facts remain and the world might as well know it. You can see the inside and the outside of the white man of the South by simply making a study of the Negroes who are with them. It is true that there are many traits that are rightfully termed "biggerish" but there is not one of these traits that is original. The Negro they are simply imperfect imitations of what the white people are. There are individuals who by accident of birth are Negroes who came in touch with something more than the supernatural, who come in touch with the whole men's soul, such individuals develop a sense of manhood and become Washington, Wrights, Councils Turners and individualities of which the world must take notice. Whenever a Negro or anyone else moves, thinks, acts, or lives according to ideas and plans that originate within himself, he is a man. His course may change, but he is a man or to poverty and obscurity, but he is a man. If a fellow is a real man what the difference if he is a white man, a yellow man or a black man, just so he is a real man' All of the members of the Congress are white but how many of them are truly and truly men? How many of them are and truly up to what originates within their own heartal Those who do not are simply what the slave was made to be "niggers" The Negro is an American citizen and as such is entitled to equally share with every other citizen all of the rights privileges and advantages of his country and no man is such that the Negro can no more than own all of his rights than an Englishman could of the heart of China. That the Negro gentleman is often found quietly submitting to treatment and quietly going on with his rights abrogated is no sign that he is less humally than the white man who much touches such a course, it really shows superior skill and superior character. While I have never seen a jim crow car yet many a time I have looked in one and seen men whom I knew were in every respect far superior me or anyone else in the other cars quite much to their destinations where they would enter heart and soul in work more noble than that of any congressman. One of the most important traits that the A. M. E Church has required of her Bishops is that they be men who hold manly manly meet and act under existing conditions, their work and yet precipitate nothing in their retard the ultimate advance of the rest. There was never a mistake made in the respect and nothing ever. happened to give the South a chance to degrade and upon the high place of Bishop until the certain time the Bishop broke from what he had been accustomed to for thirty years and because of a flush of vanity consequently upon his exaltation demanded of a telephone company in one of the worst cities in the United States certain things that the army of the United States could not shoot into them enough bullets to make them grant --- During all of the trying years the A. M. Church has carried on her work in such a way that no indignities have been heaped upon her Bishops, but now the world has spread before its gaze the story of E. F. Bishop feeling like a fugitive slave from the home in the town where he had lived for thirty years. The Bishop says that he did not free that the papers do his "good white folks wrong, but there is only one way on him he says is true. He can show that what he says is true. He can show that back to his home among his brethren and live out the rest of his episcopal term. He owes all that he has to them and should be willing to share with them all extra wisdom election does not confer excellence That what he had should go and he and do and live as he did when courting popularity and getting his three or four thousand dollars worth of property. The North or the old man who no particular welcome for a man who no particular welcome for a big office and then gets the big head and at the first flush from his big brother hikes up and skips. This is the first time that the paper has the A. E. to present the Bishop of the A. E. to present the same light that they have delighted to present ordinary Negro fugitives. There is only one thing to do and that is for the Bishop to go back to his home and live there and hold up his head as he has done in the past and use some common sense such as he used to do like the man he generalized to dill like the Bishop. He brought his brother and get a district in the "work." J. M. HENGSON, M.D. (Continued from Page 1) NEGRO POLICE FOR NEW YORK fighting among themselves. Larry evening two Negro women became involved in a quarrel over a man. The trouble started in a saloon at Lenox avenue and 114th street. A police officer attempted to put the disturbers under arrest, and they resisted one of the women getting away in the maze. While strangling with the other woman by tangle, interfered and attacked the police officer. Two other policemen saw the disturbance and took part sending in an arm for help in the meantime. Rescues from the West 12th street station were sent in automobiles and wagons in the scene of the fighting, which resulted in some Negroes getting clubbed who were deserving of such treatment and others who were innocent but fortunate to be in the neighborhood of the trouble. From midnight until early in the morning the district was patrolled by police reserves. It has been cited that in the district occupied by Italiani fights with police were frequent until Italiani were made members of the police force and the trouble between the Irish residents of the Cherry street district is familiar history to nearly every New York resident Because a law May 15, 1900, with the approval of the Governor, passed, three-fifths being pres- The People of the State of New York, repre- in Senate and Assembly, do as much as fe- State of New York, Office of the Secretary of State, m.

H Dudley, comedian of the Smart Set Company, is credited with selecting the name for the new vehicle in which his father will appear this season. Hundreds of names were suggested as is generally the case—so it was finally agreed between the comedian and his managers—Barton and Wiswell—to leave the naming of the show to young Dudley. "His Honor, the Barber," was the title chosen by the youngster. The management promises to give the public a much stronger cast and a more lavish production than has ever been presented by the Smart Set Company. This is good news, as the Smart Set Company has not kept up with the other large colored companies in the matter of costumes and scenery, and in this era of strong opposition it is necessary to give the public an elaborate and up-to-date performance in every particular The company will open September 11, at Plainfield, N J, and will include James Burris, Chris Smith, Andrew Tribble, Irving Allen, John Martin, Jennie Pearl, Fainne Andefson, Charles Lewis, Hattie Burris, Jennie Hillman, Althea Smith, Bessie Tribble and Fanchon Mack. Bert Williams' New Play Named. For the past four weeks Bert Williams and Playwrights Shupp and Rogers have been looking for a suitable name for this season's show. Name after name has been suggested but to no good purpose. For awhile it looked as if the company would be far into rehearsals before a title agreeable to all was selected. Last Saturday the name was agreed upon after three hours of discussion and overworking of the "gray matter." It was a very warm day, but the name suggested would imply that all was frosty and cold without. With apologies for the spelling, Bert Williams' new show will be called "Mr. Lode of Koal." In the piece the comedian will bear the sobriquet of "Chester A. Lode," and he will hail from the "Island of Koal." Evidently you will often hear during the season the expression: "I am going to see a load of coal," but remember, the words will sound the same but will be spelled differently As was exclusively stated in last week's issue of THE Age, Aida Overton Walker will not be with the Williams organization, but will appear with Cole and Johnson's "Red Moon" Company during the season of 1909-10. The announcement occasioned no little comment in the theatrical circles, as the consensus of opinion was that Miss Walker would appear in the company to be headed by Bert Williams. Cole and Johnson are engaged in writing three numbers for their new acquisition, it being probable that she will appear on three different occasions during the show, once in each act. The statement made in THE Age that Miss Walker will be starred next season by Stair and Havlin is also true. In the contract one of the clauses specifies that she be put out in a company of her own next season Others to appear with "The Red Moon" will be Abbie Mitchell, Fannie Wise, Sam Lucas, Arthur Talbot, Elizabeth Williams, Mollie Dill, Henry Gant, Wesley Jenkins, Edgar Connor, Frank Brown and Herbert Sutton The Degeneracy of the Moving Picture Theatre. While passing a moving picture theatre on Sixth avenue several days ago the writer was surprised to see a sign prominently displayed in front of the place bearing the following in large print: JOHN SMITH of PARIS, TEXAS, BURNED at the STAKE HEAR HIS MOANS and GROANS PRICE ONE CENT! A crudely-painted picture of a colored man being burned at the stake completed the makeup of the offensive as well as repulsive-appearing sign Judge the great surprise of the writer when two days later while walking down the Bowyer a similar sign met his gaze, the same earnest appeal being made by the proprietor of the moving picture theatre to the public to walk in and enjoy the sight of a human being meeting death by burning, with the moans and groans thrown in for a penny It is very likely that in Greater New York there are many other moving picture theatres featuring the scene of a colored man being burned at the stake, which means the planting of the seed of savagery in the breasts of those whites who even in this enlightened day and time are not any too far from barbarism and to whom such acts of inhumanity would appeal. The promoters of moving picture theatres make the assertion that their pictures are of an educational nature. For this reason thousands of children frequent such places in the city, there are cities where the authorities permit moving picture theatres to open when the legitimate houses have to close. We would like to know where do the elements of education come in so far as the picture in question is concerned? Here is work for our ministers and others having the interest of the race at heart. The authorities will see that no offensive pictures are presented for public view if a strong protest is made by the colored citizens of New York. EDITED BY LESTER A. WALTON It would not be surprising to learn that in other cities. North, East, South and West, lynchings are being produced for the "education" of the patrons. These pictures can be suppressed if proper steps are taken to do so. However, if we do not start now to put an end to this insult to the race, expect to see more shocking pictures with the Negro as a subject in the near future FROGS SUMMERNIGHT'S DANCE. Three Bands Will Furnish Music—Many Out of Town Merrymakers Expected. On Monday evening, August 9, the Frogs will give their Summernight dance at Manhattan Casino, 155th street and Eighth avenue. The affair promises to be unique in many respects, and the dancers will be treated with a sure-enough novelty: the presence of three bands who will furnish music from the evening until the morning of the 10th. The three bands to be much in evidence will be Walter F Craig's augmented orchestra, Miss Halie Anderson's specially arranged orchestra and the New Amsterdam Brass Band. There will be music every minute. From present indications the usual large quota from out of town will be on hand, which will be increased by many visitors who are stopping at Asbury Park, Atlantic City, Saratoga and other Summer resorts. It is most likely the dance will be the largest and most fashionable of the Summer season. In accordance with the usual custom of the Frogs, souvenirs will be given to the ladies.

It was pleasing to note during the meeting that the organization showed a spirit of good fellowship towards the Frogs and appointed a large delegation to attend the Frogs' Summernight's dance, to be given next Monday evening at Manhattan Casino. On the other hand, the Frogs have advertised extensive offers of Colored Vaudeville Benevolent Association for the big minstrel carnival to be given Thursday evening, August 12. at Sulzer's Harlem River Park Such actions indicate that the two organizations will work in harmony instead of fighting each other, as only a few members in the association want to do CARNIVAL AND MINSTREL SHOW. To Be Given by Vaudevillians—Prem- sents to Take Part in Early Appeals Considerable interest is being shown in the big carnival and minstrel show to be given at Sulzer's New Hagley River Park, August 12, under the auspices of the Colored Vaudeville Benevolent Association. The Committee on Entertainment is working hard to make the affair a success, and it is most likely that the carnival will be the biggest thing of its kind ever given by colored performers The feature of the evening will be a minstrel show, in which the leading colored vaudevillians will take part Among the end men will be S. H. Dudley and John Rucker. In the afternoon a big attraction will be held, a contest will be awarded the winners of the various events. There will be a 100-yard dash, 75-yard dash, 50-yard dash, fat man's race sack race, standing high jump and shot putting. All desiring to take part send in entry to Bob Slater, 450 Sixth avenue. There will also be dancing in the evening. FOREIGN SCHOLARSHIP FUND COMPLETED. Mme. Hackley Announces That $500 Hua Been Raised—Letter from Zacharewitsch. Mme F. Azalina Hackley announces that she has completed the White Foreign Scholarship Fund, having paid to Clarence C. White the $500 she promised him for his year's study Mme Hackley is enthusiastic over the success of the collection of the subscriptions, and with the remarkable progress that Mr White has made under the tutelage of Mr Zacharewitsch, She has promised Mr White, in the event he can stay another year on his own efforts, to help him with a first-class debut in London. The following receipt from Mr White, and letter from his teacher have been sent to Mme Hackley for her Scholarship Bulletin for 1909, which will be published in a few weeks: "London, June 29, 1909 "Dear Mme Hackley "Your letter came to-day with the order enclosed. This order to-day brings the total amount received from you and Mr Tanner to five hundred ($300) dollars, the full amount you so kindly solicited for me as beneficiary of the Foreign Scholarship. At this time allow me to express my gratitude to you, Mr Tanner and all those who so kindly assisted in the Scholarship Fund. It will ever be my greatest ambition to prove myself worthy of this kindness and generosity "With reference to Mr Clarence White, I would say that he has been my pupil for about twelve months, and that he has made very rapid progress. He is an exceedingly charming young man, a real hard-working student, and has a wonderfully natural talent for the violin. If he could continue his studies for a further twelve months and get public presentation I feel sure that he would be bound to have great success and win public recognition immediately; and I personally will do all I possibly can to help him in his professional career, as I most sincerely wish him all the success he so much deserves. "MICHAEL ZACHAMWITZCH." B AT MASTERSON, fighting expert for The New York Telegraph. had the following to say in Tuesday's issue "It is understood that when Jack Johnson reaches New York he will post $3,000 in the hands of the sporting editor of The Age, which is to be considered as an evidence of good faith on his part for a match with Jezriez. The Age is an Afro-American weekly publication devoted chiefly to the interests of the Negro population of New York." "The Age is a well-edited, newspaper journal, with a good sporting page. The sporting editor of The Age is a well-informed young man who keeps in close touch with the various lines of athletic sports throughout the country. He has written some sensible articles regarding the Jezriez Johnson guide that some been in this country since Johnson became the headwayweight champion, a thing that can hardly be said of some of the other more pretentious sporting writers." "There is no reason why Johnson should not place his money with the champion, in fact, several reasons why he should. In the first place, Johnson being the champion, has a perfect right to post next place, the next place, the sporting editor of The Age being a Negro, it would only be natural for the champion to give the advance to a member of his own race." In reply to the letter of such a reputable sporting publication the sporting editor of THE Age can only state that while he has been informed indirectly that Champion Jack Johnson contemplates putting up $5,000 with Tirr Age to bind the proposed Johnson-Jeffries match, he has not received any direct information from the champion or his manager relative thereto. It is possible that the report is merely one of the many rumors circulated about Johnson since because he became champion The writer hopes that if Champion Johnson does not put the $5,000 in the hands of some Negro writer that it will be posted with some white writer who is inclined to be fair and is not saturated with color prejudice. Such writers as Bat Masterson and "Tad" of the New York Journal, preferred. We have paid particular attention to the fact that Jeffries has posted his money with Edgren, of the Evening World, who has been very unfair to Johnson, which appears as if Jeffries is seeking to ensare Johnson into the camp of the enemy. And, after all this talk of posting forfeits, the sporting editor of The Age is not any too optimistic relative to ever seeing a fight between Jeffries and Johnson. In the first place, we think Jeffries is bluffing and showing great business judgment in getting some good advertising. Secondly, he is going to exact such unreasonable demands of Johnson that the champion will be foolish for accepting. As he has the heavy-weight title, why should he? Royal Giants Win Two Games The Royal Giants played two games at Meyerroe Park, Brooklyn, Sunday, winning both.

White the Directors are all from Brooklyn, the petition stated that operations will be carried on in Nework Empire Snea Catcher August Jenks, of Millerton, N.Y. an umbre in the Housatonic Valley Baseball League, has brought an action for slander against Catcher Charles Barnum, of the Lakeville, N.Y. team Jenks umpired a game between the Lakeville and Sheffield teams at Lakeville, which resulted in a victory for the visitors by the score of 7 to 8, and he claims that during the contest Barnum slandered him. Barnum admits that he questioned several of the umpire's decisions. The writ was served on Barnum when the Lakeville team journeyed into New York State to play Millerton. Barnum is given twenty days to file an answer Philadelphia Giants and Leland Giants to Play. A baseball contest worth seeing will be that played in Detroit, Mich, next week between the Philadelphia Giants and the Leland Giants at Bennett Park. It will be the East against the West, and a first-class game should be the result. The game will be played during the National Elles Convention, and is advertised as the match to settle the colored championship. However, as the two teams have obviously defeated the Philadelphia Giants every time the two teams have met this season it is difficult to see how the Leland Giants and the Philadelphia Giants can alone settle the question of baseball supremacy. Judges Give Decision to Archer. The skating contest for the championship of New York took place last Thursday evening at the Lenox Rink between Al Roberts, of 1908, and Larry Archer, champion of 1909. Every thing was a success except Archer's fouling of Roberts by tripping, although the judges awarded the decision to the former. At the sound of the going Roberts was off like a flash but was forced to return by the judges because Archer was left at the post. AT THE SUMMER RESORTS Brooklyn Cottage, Ashbury Park.
