VOL. XXII. No. 49. Our Negro Physicians Met With Disappointment in Boston WHITE HOSPITALS Visited by Members of N. M. A.. But Were Only Permitted to Gather and Look On PLYMOUTH HOSPITAL Only Institution Where Visiting Doctors Were Given Looked-for Opportunity to Hold Operations. Special to THE NEW YORK AGE. Boston, Mass, September 8—Although the National Medical Association has come and gone, the echoes of it have not yet died away. Boston, in which is the "Cradle of Liberty," where Philips, Sumner and Garrison fought for a great principle; the home of great men and famous institutions, the place of historic scenes from the stirring times of 76 until the present day, when freedom reigns and every man is supposed to go where he chooses and as he likes, furnished an illustration during the recent visit of Negro physicians of the fact that a man even at the "Cradle of Liberty" is freer to do as he likes with his own than he is to do with that which belongs to the other fellow. The N. M. A program was elaborately made up. It was carefully edited by men who knew how, and the printing was almost faultless. But in some mysterious manner the error occurred the keen eye of the proofreader, which tensed a mild dose of disappointment many of the Negro physicians and surgeons. But as doctors are supplied to be cool and quiet of nerve, they took their medicine like men, even though it was a little hard to swallow. The error was in that part of the program which read: Wednesday morning, August 25— Clinics. Blossom Street Children's Hospital, 9 to 11; City Hospital, 11 to 1; Mocheon; City Hospital, 1 to 2 p. m. Mocheon; City Hospital, 11 to 2 p. m. time to be admitted; Mocheon Ymouth Hospital, time to be announced, etc. It will be noticed that three hours were to be spent at clinics at the City Hospital. Only One Hospital Controlled by Negroes. All these hospitals, except Plymouth, are controlled by white Men. Plymouth is controlled by colored men, having been founded some years ago by Dr C N Garland. Curiously enough, though a conciident it may be, the hospital controlled by Negroes was the only one at which the N M. A. physicians were allowed to do any clinics. When announcement was made that the Negro doctors were to hold clinics at the white hospitals it didn't mean that they were to do any clinics at all. It meant that they were to visit the white hospitals at the times stated and see the white doctors hold clinics, but the colored doctors, it seems, didn't know that. They were either misled or the invitation extended by the white hospital management was misunderstood. It may be that the address of welcome on behalf of the medical profession of Massachusetts by Silas D Presbrey, MD, also was misunderstood Dr Presbrey welcomed the Negro doctors to about everything in Boston, including a spin in the sight-seeing autos labeled Seeing Boston." He welcomed them to visit all the hospitals and medical institutions in the city, to see and learn of the latest information in medical science and modern methods in hospital management, but not to do clinics. Performing operations is said to be a hobby realistically guarded by all physicians. When Dr I L Roberts announced that all the doctors should meet him at the city hospital Wednesday morning at 9 o'clock sharp to hold clinics, every doctor began to bubble over with euthanasia. Watch White Doctors at City Hospital. At the City Hospital, however, a demonstration of what was really meant by choice of the white hospitals was given to the hired doctors. They were all the time, and the white doctors in charge of the City Hospital had them all lie down, not the wall two abreast, like a slave. Negro soldiers of the 10th Army. Then they were ready to do it, all stood in military style, and the white doctors do their work. A single Negro doctor was allowed to raise a knife to perform a sort of operation at any hospital, controlled by white men. White Hospital they were allowed from operations, under direct M. Curtis, M.D., of Howard. Here they did for them the white doctors did for the white hospitals, here they the institution controlled by them, here they were free to do as they were free to do.

WHEELER DEAD Prominent Old Citizen of Chicago Dies at Tuskegee—Was the First Lawyer in Illinois. Special to THE NEW YORK AGR. CHICAGO, Ill. September 8 - Lloyd G. Wheeler, of Chicago, and Tuskegee, Ala., died at Tuskegee, August 28, after an illness of several months. His remains were brought to Chicago for burial, attended by his youngest son, Professor Hiram Wheeler. His widow, four sons, one daughter, Miss Mabel, of St Louis, one brother and one sister survive him. The funeral took place in the beautiful embowered chapel in Graceland Cemetery on Tuesday, August 31. A large number of Chicago's representative citizens gathered around the remains to pay the last tribute of respect that the living can pay to the dead. Dr Jenkin Lloyd Jones, founder of Abraham Lincoln Center and pastor of All Soul's Church, conducted the funeral services and paid an eloquent tribute to the sterling qualities and interesting career of the deceased citizen. For nearly forty years Lloyd G Wheeler was one of the most conspicuous characters in the Northwest. He was born in Ohio over sixty years ago and lived through many of the stirring events that made history in the United States during and after the Civil War Mr Wheeler was largely a self-made man. Though he had but little schooling, few men were better read or so widely informed on subjects of public interest. He read extensively and was a man of strong scholarly instincts and ambitions. As an evidence of his versatility, he was at one time prominent in politics, he was the first colored U. S. mail carrier in Chicago and the first to be admitted to the practice of law in Illinois. He organized the first battalion of Negro men that became a part of the State militia, and he was an earnest student of evolution, being the only colored member of the Chicago Evolution Club. The deceased was one of the founders of President Hospital and Tropical Hospital. For many years he was the recognized social leader among the Negroes of Chicago. Up to the time that Mr. Wheeler accepted the position of business agent of the Tuskegee Institute, tendered to him by Dr Washington about six years ago, he conducted one of the best established and best known clothes cleaning and tailoring establishments in the down-town district. His business career was quite notable from the fact that he had as his customers many of the best-known business men of Chicago and was always on good terms, both socially and financially, with some of the most prominent and influential men of the city. He fortunately lived long enough to see all of his children grown up into manhood and womanhood and equipped for life in trade or profession and to be recognized by his friends and associates as having contributed his full share to the well-being of the community in which he lived and spent the best part of his varied and useful life WANTS AMERICAN INTERFERENCE Menelik's Heir Strongly Opposed to European Protestorate in Africa. CHICAGO, September 7 — A plea for American interference in Abyssina, addressed to the Daily News of this city and signed by Prince Johannes Menekel of Adis Abbeha, hurt to the Abyssinian throne, was printed in the News a few days ago. The authenticity of the letter is vouched for by Professor D D Luckenbill, instructor in Anatomy, at the University of Chicago Professor Luckenbill stated that there was a sort of Young Turk movement in every Oriental country at the present time. Abyssina being no exception. The letter began "the Abbeha Abyssina, Ethiopia July 18, 1909 From H R H Prince Johannes I Menekel, to Chicago, Ill, U S A, the News Manager." The writer speaks of the menace to his country of Germany, France, Italy and England, particularly the last named. He speaks of advising his father the Emperor against the latter's appeal to Germany for help. America is the one land he can trust. "I am a prince of Africa" runs the letter, "and I now call to the worldwide attention to help me in this great work, because if we left it in our native people's hands Africa shall go to hell and not to heaven. I must point out one thing. We don't want Germans or English or French in this country. But if America come in my lifetime, she and her subjects shall be welcome. But German people is no good to any contested people. And I also she's hell enough. German forty million times worse. And on other hand I do think we can get as goodes man in the state of America." Prince Johannes proposes a visit to America by way of China and Japan in furtherance of his desire for American intervention to save his country from becoming a European protectorate.

"SOUTH MUST ELEVATE NEGRO" Whites' Success Depends on Elevation of the Race Makes Strong Plea for Better Colored Schools in Birmingham—Negroes Should Get Fair Deal. Special to THE NEW YORK AUGE. BIRMINGHAM, Ala, September 7 — Former Mayor George Ward of this city has come out in a report asking that the city authorities give the Negro citizens their proportionate share of the public funds for school purposes. His plea for giving the Negroes a fair deal has caused much comment, and it is probable that Mayor O'Brien will agree with his predecessor on the question. According to ex-Mayor Ward, the school officials are not doing their duty toward the enclosed public schools here, and the charge is made that the colored schools are in worse condition to-day than fifteen years ago. In his report ex-Mayor Ward makes the following statement "During the year a bond issue of $350,000 for new schools and enlargements of old schools was voted by the people. This fund will increase the capacity of the school system between 50 and 60 per cent. As a result, when all plans are completed, your school system will rank easily among the foremost in all the South. "I wish to say here that in my opinion the city authorities are not doing their duty to the colored population nor pursuing a wise or just course in holding the colored schools down practically to a worse condition than they were fifteen years ago. The mission of the white race is to elevate, not to drag down. There will doubtless be discussions of this question for years to come, but the sweep of the tide is toward elevation and better condition through manpower, and will ultimately prevail. The colored people are so intertwined in the life and conditions of the South that they must either be elevated by the whites or the whites will be affected injuriously by them through bad health and sanitation. "Nearly every household in the South is served by one or more members of the more race. Newly established, with habits and ideas that bear the standard of health, sanitation or morality set by enlightened people. "Therefore nearly every household in the South, more especially the children, are subjects to the possible contamination coming daily and ignorantly from these sources as long as such conditions exist. "The Board of Education has recommended that at least $100,000 of the bond issue go into colored schools. I cannot but believe that the council will adopt a broad, wise view of this matter and carry out their recommendations. The growth of the school system during four years is shown by the following 1905 1909 Inc Number of teachers 130 240 70% Number of pupils 6,226 9,500 50% Cost $94,500 $130,000 37% Regarding the Temporary Force. Census Burune Makes Announcement WASHINGTON September 6. The Bureau of the Census has announced that approximately 3,000 temporary clerks will be appointed in connection with the work of taking the thirteenth decennial census. The first examination will be held throughout the United States on October 23 next. Very few appointments from this examination will be made before January 1 next, and not many will be made until April 1910. The maximum force will be drawn about August next year. These appointees will receive salaries of $000 per annum at the beginning but promotions, it is asserted, to at least $000 yearly will be reasonably rapid to those who render satisfactory service. Blank application forms and a circular of instructions the bureau announces may be obtained after September 10 by addressing the Civil Service Commission, Washington D.C., the Bureau of the Census Washington, D.C., or the secretary of the Board of Examiners at the following named places among others: Postoffice, Atlanta Ga. custom house, New Orleans, La.

They also took occasion to condemn the hiding of Mr. fugitives from justice by members of their race DREAMERS AGAIN IN WORK. New Order Formed North and South to Colonize Negro for Some Other Country. ARAGON, Ga., September 7—With a view to getting into the limelight, several white citizens of this city have formed what is to be known during its brief life as the Order of True Americans. The order prophesies to settle the Negro problem, and a preacher is one of the principal founders. The removal of the Negro from America and his colonization elsewhere is the prime object of the order. It declares a speedy, lawful and honorable settlement of the American race problem, upon principles of justice to both races. It is said to stand for "the reunion of the North and South, for one united white America, for loyalty to the American government, and for law and order instead of mob violence." The Rev J. R. Lamb, pastor of the First Baptist Church of Aragon, is one of the founders of the order, and to Aragon belongs the honor of having the first lodge. Its officers are: W C. Teel, president; P. S. Lamb, secretary; Thomas Adams, treasurer, and Joseph Hicks, door keeper, of the Rev. J. R. Lamb is the national president of the order, and expects to establish lodges throughout the South and other parts of the United States. MONTGOMERY, Apt.

Warning to Negroes. LAWRENCEVILLE, Ga., September 7.—A notice giving warning to loafing Negroes to either "go to work or clear out" was found posted recently in the lobby of the postoffice here. It is signed by "the present cyclops of the N. K. C." By many the warning is taken as a joke. The postmaster, however, took charge of the notice and proposes to have postoffice inspectors investigate the matter Dallas Has Negro Bank. DALLAS, Tex., September 7—A Negro bank has just been opened in this city. The directors and principal managers are among our most substantial people. Success is predicted for the new institution New Bank in Tennessee. NASHVILLE, Tenn., September 6. A new bank has just been opened here, known as the People's Savings, Banking and Trust Company. It has started off auspiciously. This makes two banks for Nashville. Federation President Praises Clubs. New Repound, Mass., Sept 7—Miss Elizabeth C. Carter, of New Bedford, Mass., president of the National Association of Colored Women, who has been visiting many of the clubs from the Atlantic to the Pacific Coast, passed through New York City last week on route to Springfield, Mass., to attend the Northwestern Federation of Women's Clubs. At the opening session, Thursday, Miss Carter referred to the large amount of excellent work being accomplished by club women, telling of property being secured, also organized charities being maintained by many of the club women, as well as the development along the line of music and art. Special commendation was given the State Federations of California and Illinois for encouraging race pride by patronizing the Negro Doll Company in Tennessee and placing in the hands of our children pretty, attractive colored dolls all advertising records in its COLUMNS OF ADVERTISING issue.

H. Mitchell, Convicted of Assault— Unique Case in History of State Special to The New York Age. ATLANTA, Ga., September 8.—One of the most remarkable cases in Georgia's legal history, has just been brought to a close by the decision of Governor Brown, who has refused clemency to William H Mitchell, a prominent citizen of Gainesville, Ga., who has been convicted of assault. Great pressure has been brought to bear to get Governor Brown to lessen Mitchell's sentence, but to no good purpose. Even the Prison Commission Board has sought to aid Mitchell in his attempt to keep from becoming a member of the chain gang. Despite the recommendation of the Prison Commission that the sentence of the prisoner be changed from one year on the chain gang to a similar period on the State farm at Milledugeville, Governor Brown has decided that Mitchell will have to serve out his original sentence. The sheriff of Slington County was immediately instructed after the decision of the Governor to take Mitchell in custody, and it does not appear that the prisoner will escape the humiliation of being a member of the chain gang. The friends of Mitchell are still striving to prevent him from serving out his full sentence, and are deeply chagrined to think that such a prominent man should be compelled to don the convict stripes. In denying clemency to Mitchell Governor Brown said: Should the clemency asked for in the present case be extended, there is granger anger that it would bear fruits of sorrow in every section of our State. It would set an example perilous beyond compare, an example embodying a daily menace to Georgia's womanhood. It would say that we have one law for the rich, another for the poor; we have the same criminal estimates. The prisoner was convicted of attempted assault on Miss Lucile Linton, a highly respected young woman and a relative of his wife. As in many of such cases in the South, Mitchell blackened his face to hide his identity, but was recognized and arrested. UNUSUAL SITUATION IN GEORGIA. Four Men In Jail for Heinous Crimes, Three of Whom Are White. CARTERSVILLE, Ga., Sept 7—With the placing in jail here a few days ago of William Golden, a white man, 32 years of age, on the charge of criminal assault. Bartow County jail now houses four men accused of this heinous crime—and but one of these is a Negro. Not before in the history of the State has such a condition existed, and an attempt at wholesale lynching would not be surprising. Extraordinary precautions, however, have been taken by the officers to protect the prisoners, and the sheriff professes to have the situation well known. Golden is charged with criminally assaulting Miss Anne Gentry, a feeble-minded young white woman, near Taylerville, on July 22. Golden disappeared shortly after the commission of the crime and was not seen again until last night when he was arrested and hurried to the jail here. The details of the crime as told by Miss Gentry and corroborated in part by her sister, are revolting in the extreme. It is not doubted that Golden would have been lynched had he remained in the vicinity of the crime, great indignation having been aroused by the girl's story. There is still much excitement on account of the crime. As Taylerville was also the scene of the more recent assault upon Miss Elford for which John and R J Worthington, white, are being held, the jail here the authorities are apprehensive lest a mob of considerable numbers be organized in that section with a view to storming the jail and putting to death the quartet of alleged rapists. Howard Stokely, a Negro, is the fourth than held on this serious charge CONFERENCE OF CHURCH WORKERS Notable Meeting of Conference Held in Lawrenceville — Many Addresses Made. Special to THE NEW YORK AGE. LAWRENCEVILLE, Va., September 7.—The Conference of Church Workers among colored people, held in St. Paul's Memorial Chapel, closed last Friday after a three days' session of what is universally conceded to have been the best attended and most successful conference in every respect ever held. The Conference of Church Workers is a voluntary body, without legislative juicial functions. Its sole object is to increase and stimulate the work of the church among Negroes. The conference numbers about two hundred earnest, thoughtful Christian men and women. The conference was organized about twenty-five years ago by Dr. Alexander Crummel. It has had annual sessions since, but mostly in the North. The officers are: President, Rev. H. L. Phillips, DD, Philadelphia, Pa.; vice-president, E Robert Bennet, archdeacon of Florida; secretary, the Rev. Geo. F Bragg, Jr, of Baltimore, Md.; treasurer, Prof Edward Ellis, Jr, Richmond, Va.; assistant secretary, the Rev. J. K. Satterwhite, Winston-Salem, N. C.; necrologist, the Rev. E. E. Miller, Petersburg, Va. The features of the conference were the well prepared papers, addresses and sermons, the address to the church, and the conservatism and loftiness of the deliberations. The conference appropriated $25 each to Bishops Ferguson and Holly for their missionary work. Honorary presidents were ordered to be appointed for each diocese. The general church was represented on the program by Rt. Rev. Robert Strange, Bishop of San Carolina; the Rev C. B. Bryan, D.D. Petersburg, Va.; Principal Bishop Payne Bishops, S.C.; and the Rev Samuel H. Bishops M.A., general agent of the American Church Institute for Negroes. All made address rottable for their helpfulness, broad Christianism and Catholic spirit. The addresses of the Revs. Scott Wood and George F. Bragg, on the Need of a Field Secretary, dealt with a vital question in the church. The feeling of the conference crystalized in the following resolution: "Whereas, The urgent and immediate needs of the work among colored people demand the presence and personality of a capable and efficient Negro priest, who can and will visit the workers in the field, helping them in their various problems, inspiring confidence and enthusiasm in the members of our various congregations, representing the interest of the missionary cause, visiting Negro teachers in schools, and strengthening the ability of the church in the community. In general, we are creating link of the women to the leadership, membership, target, how, therefore, be it "Resolved, That this Conference of Church Workers among Colored People has heard with keen regret the inability of the Board of Mission to accede to our request in the appointment of a field secretary. And that we reaffirm our request made to them last year with respect to this matter." The women of the church were represented by Woman's Day, which was Friday. The papers and discussions highly creditable and their deliberations took a personal form. The officers of the woman's organization President, Mrs. M M Brokenborough, Richmond, Va.; vice-president, Miss F. V. Smith, Anacostia; secretary, Mrs B W Paxton, Newark, N J.; corresponding secretary, Mrs Susie V Pollars, Petersburg, Va.; treasurer, Mrs Nellie C. Jones, Edenton, N C. The sessions closed Friday night with a procession of the clergy and solemn Te Deum. Afterwards a delightful reception was tended the conference by the principal and faculty of St Paul School.

Has Largest Circulation PRICE, 5 CENTS NEGRO CENSUS ENUMERATORS Question Causes Bitter Agitation in State of Mississippi Chief Moseley and Crowd Have Planned to Prevent Appointment of Negro Census Takers WIDESPREAD EFFECT Similar Movement Has Been Inaugurated in Texas, Tennessee and Louisiana—Negroes to Appeal to President. Special to The New York Age. JACKSON, Miss, September 6.—According to the Evening News of this city, the acknowledged mouthpiece of the Federal office holders of Mississippi, Negroes are not to be considered in connection with the taking of the census of this State. The paper in question publishes the information that Chief Moseley has made it known that Mississippi will not have Negro enumerators. When the last census was taken there were sixty six Negro enumerators in one district alone. If the boasts of the "Lily White" faction comes true, and the Negro voters of Mississippi do not make a determined stand against discrimination when the new census is taken there will not be thirty-three enumerators in the entire State. The blight of "Lily-Whiteism" not only threatens the Negro Republicans of Mississippi, but those of Texas, Tennessee and Louisiana as well. It has reached your correspondent from a reliable source that the "Lily Whites" of those States are as active in their desire to prevent the appointment of Negro enumerators as the Mississippiians. Furthermore, we are not allowing a desire to keep these opposition to the appointment of Negro enumerators a secret. Negro voters in this State have reported President Taft for not mentioning year, are wondering how, and the crowd have managed into the good graces of the administration in view of the opposition shown by them in opposing Mr. Taft's nomination until Mr. Hitchcock told them they would have to get in line. When the last census was taken Mississippi had two supervisors and many enumerators. The Negro voters of the State comprise nine-tenths and more of the party, yet unless President Taft terefes, Moseley and his following will seek to have the Negroes disregarded. A protest is to be made to the President asking that the Negro voters be given consideration when appointments in Mississippi are made, despite the anti-Negro plans of the Moseley crowd. AGAINST ANTI-SALOON LEAGUES Negro Assistant Prosecuting Attorney of Ohio Gives Important Opinion. Special to THE NEW YORK AGR. COLUMBUS, O., September 7—Wilbur King, the Negro Assistant Prosecuting Attorney of Ohio, has given an important opinion against the Anti-Saloon League of this State. According to Assistant Prosecuting Attorney King, the claim for exemption from taxation of the funds of the State Anti-Saloon League on the grounds that the League is a public charity, the organization will be required to pay the tax because its by laws do not substantiate the claim it makes but place it in the category of political organizations which exist for the purpose of changing present laws and to have enacted laws in harmony with the purposes of the organization. The question of exemption arose from a contention of the attorney of the League, Wayne B. Wheeler, that the League is a public charity and that, as such, it is exempted from taxation. Attorney Wheeler claimed this exemption only for the fund of the organization after an investigation by the board of review of the differences in the League's tax laws to the extent that of last. Attorney King quotes some lengthy, in his written opinion, from the laws of the League, and bases his conclusion on its by laws and constitution and the constitution of the State of Ohio. It is said that in no other State in the Union does the League have to pay a tax on its funds. Attorney King says further in his opinion "I am unable to reconcile the organization and its purpose with the institutions which the law has defined as 'Institutions of purely public charity.' True it is that the Anti Saloon League has a moral purpose. So have many other and most all organizations. The fact alone that an organization has a moral purpose or that it is based upon some moral principle is not, in my judgment, sufficient to bring it within the favored classes of institutions whose property is exempt from taxation. Institutions calling to swell themselves of its population are unable to purpose Salem Pastor Returns. The pastor, Rev. F. A. Cullen, returned Tuesday after a month's vacation at his home in Baltimore. He preached Sunday to a large congregation, morning and evening. St. David's Season Begins. On last Sunday, at St. David's, the rector, E. G Clifton, D.D., preached both morning and evening to a large congregation. At the morning service there was a celebration of the Holy Communion, the rector being the celebrant. This being the first Sunday in September, the various department of the church took up their work. The choir was in its place after the summer vacation. A hearty invitation was extended to all the friends and well wishers of the church to worship with St. David's. The Fresh Air work was officially closed on Labor Day with a lawn party on the lawns of the home Large Meeting with Rev. Bolden preached his first sermon from his published program last Sunday to large and large congregations at each location. His subject in the morning was "The child Jesus," from which he drew many lessons. His portrayal of the character of "Abraham, God's friend" at the evening service was eloquent and forceful. His innovation of publishing the subjects from which he expects to preach will undoubtedly awaken a deal more interest. The New York Female Quartette presented a most creditable program on last Sunday at the regular Sunday School sacred concert. Rev Bolden was warmly congratulated upon the rendition of his solo. Dr. Mayfield read a fine paper, and Miss Dotson sang delightfully the harp from Mr. Ollen devor service. Mr. Shaw from Mr. Ollen the interesting leader. Next Sunday morning Rev. Bolden will preach from the subject, "The man Christ Jesus." In the evening he will talk on "Joseph," the pure man." Next Sunday is regular communion day, and Rev Cullen of Salem mission will preach : Harlem Zion Has Communion. Despite the inclementy "Little Zion" was the scene of activity at three well attended services on Sunday last. Dr. Mullen, the pastor, preached morning and evening, while Dr. J. C. Fernandes preached and administered the communion in the afternoon. Interest was at fever heat all the day, with large crowds showing their entire satisfaction with the services. The collection was most encouraging. The Board of Stewardesses gave a concert on last Wednesday, which was a success in every particular. The talent appeared to splendid advantage, and about $25 was cleared above the expenses. The boys of the Sunday School will hold an entertainment on September 23, while Miss Annie Belle Taylor will give a musical at the residence of the pastor, 55 East 192d street, Thursday evening, September 30. On "The Seven Beatitudes of the Apocalypse," Dr J H McMullen, pastor of the Harlem M A F M Zion Church, located on 117th street, between Second and Third avenues, will preach seven sermons, on each Sunday evening beginning September 12. New. Boyd of St. Phillip's Returns. Rev. and Mrs. N. Peterson Boyd left the city July 26 to spend their vacation in Virginia, their native state. While away they visited Hampton, Newport News, Norfolk, Capron, Lawrenceville, Union Level, Boydton, Chase City and Warrenton, N. C. They have a host of friends at each of these places, who made it very pleasant for them. They traveled more over the country roads in here and there to most of their time, however, was with their parents at Joyceville and This was their first visit home when they were married and the parents and friends on both sides seemed quite reluctant to see them leave for their work here as they did in June, 1908. On their return home last Friday they found that a royal surprise reception had been provided by the congregation of St. Phillip's, and the work under the direction of James R. Spurgeon with Miss Ida Dandridge at the organ had been a splendid success in every way New Secretary for Y. W. C. Miss Cora B. Jackson, of Baltimore, Md., entered upon her duties as general secretary of the 53rd street Branch of the Y. W. C. on the first day of this month. Miss Jackson is a native of Detroit, Mich. After she was graduated at the Chicago University, she taught over years in the Baltimore High School, and was asked to Howard University, at the application of one year at Howard, where her broad Christian culture superior intellect, tact and ability in dealing with young women attracted much attention, she comes to us with the highest recommendations. The work of the 53rd street branch is now in a splendid condition under the wise management of our able president, Mrs. Recerdy C. Ranson and her co-laborers. We invite all women, young and old, who may become interested in the elevation of the young women of the country to come and visit us. S. S.

Benjamin Party Served—Examples of Energy. Regular Correspondence of THE AGE Boston HOST, Sept. 7. Massachusetts is the best State in the Union and leads the world, and Boston is the best town in Massachusetts. The laws of Massachusetts, whose government is located in the city, define discrimination of any kind, in any public place, on account of race, color or credit, or for any other reason. It is often said that while the laws of the Commonwealth are framed to prohibit such discriminations they do not always prohibit, and that some hotel owners and restraints keep on discriminating. Benjamin on the colored business men of Boston musists that if a colored man goes to any public place in Boston for service or accommodation of any kind, and is all right looks all right and acts all right, he will be accommodated all right, hence the little discrimination of our through the hotel. Four heads by the determined Mr Benjamin On their journey through "The Hub," being whizzed about town in a taxicab, they stopped at all the swellest hotels in the city, among them being the Boston Tavern and the Hotel Haywood, two of the worst sinners in Boston in the war of mannancing against people of the darker race. The party found what they were looking for at the Hotel Haywood. At all other places they were served a meal. They sat down to a table and were invited to get up. Mr Benjamin took his party there to get served and the result was an argument. One of the help asked Mr Benjamin to take the table. The latter replied that he was talking to the white winter behind the counter insisting that he instruct his black waiter behind the table to serve his party, and that he would give him just three minutes in the room. After waiting about three minutes they were served all right, and then the management began to apologize. The party visited a half dozen places and was the first to see that they had any tuba. The management of the Hayward informed Mr. Benjamin at his office that a standing invitation is extended him to call at any time with assurances that such an episode does not occur that places in Boston that attempt to discriminate against persons of color are managed or run by outsiders, people who are from the South or some section asked to it. Mr. Benjamin stands ready to ask any man to come in, and that in Boston "a man for g" that." Miss Emma McCutcheon, of Northfield street, who has been very sick, is able to be out again.

BESJAMIN The picture here of Mr. Benjamin is the first of a series that THE AGE will print to time under the caption. Examples of Energy and Wash. In the quintessential manner of Benjamin away from noise and clatter, where things are done instead of seen and heard, are sources of energetic colored men babbling over with ambition and enthusiasm and succeeding because they are following in his footsteps. Mr. Benjamin is a broker but his principal business is that of adjuster of claims. His clients are among the largest business houses in Boston and New York and transactions that pass through office represent hundreds of thousands of dollars. Mr Benjamin was born in Charleston S. C. and lived there just eighteen months, long enough to have enough money to make him kind and good-natured, and he has lived in Boston ever since, long enough to get iron in his blood. He is an example of what any colored man can do who has the stuff in him Mr. Benjamin the interior and the two children a boy and a girl Dr Walter O Taylor, who graduated last spring from the College of Physicians and Surgeons of Boston, and passed the State Board of Medical Examiners last July, has hung out his shingle at 3S Greenwich Park.

There were only three other colored men in the class, and one of them failed to graduate. ODD FELLOWS PARANE CAM BRIDGE.

WALTON THEATRICAL COMMENT ABBIE MITCHELL has resigned from "The Red Moon" Company and is no longer a member of the well-known organization. Her resignation was tendered the early part of last week and was accepted by Cole and Johnson. She closed her engagement with the show last Saturday evening in Jersey City. In Miss Mitchell's sudden leaving "The Red Moon" Company the guests have been turned another subject which they will have an opportunity to discuss during their moments of leisure and otherwise. Those in the "I told you so" class are already busy throwing bouquets at themselves and claiming medals that should be presented to Dr Cook for discovering the North Polk According to rumor, Miss Mitchell left "The Red Moon" because of the presence of Aula Overton Walker, being opposed to sharing stellar honors with Miss Walker, who has been given a prominent part in the show. How ever, Miss Mitchell emphatically demes that she resigned on account of Miss Walker. On the other hand, at Miss Mitchell did leave "The Red Moon" because of reasons herefore mentioned, Miss Walker seems to be entirely unconscious of any unusual doings in "The Red Moon" Company Particularly at the theatre she does not appear DON MITCHELL BOOK ABBIE MITCHELL to be paying attention to gossip -nothing but her work In speaking to the writer relative to leaving The Red Moon. Miss Mitchell said. "There is much talk going the rounds that I have left the show on account of Miss Walker. This charge is absolutely untrue I had a chance to go into vaudeville and get more money than I have been getting from Cole and Johnson and took advantage of the opportunity "I have been working for a number of years in vaudeville for a reputation, and have always been successful, it having always been my aim to some day get recognition from the vaudeville managers, to which I think I am justly entitled William Morris offered me twenty-old weeks over his circuit at a much larger sum that I was getting in "The Red Moon" Company, and I accepted the time. Any other reason given for leaving the company is without foundation." Miss Mitchell opened Monday in Alleghany, Pa., at one of William Morris' houses. Bert Williams Makes a Hit. Bert A. Williams made his first appearance as a single star last week in Toledo, O., in his new musical comedy, "Mr. Lode of Koal". This season he will be seen alone owing to the temporary illness of his partner, George W. Walker, who is taking a year's lay-off. "Mr Lode of Koal" was first presented to the public last week at the Casino Theatre, Toledo, and, judging from the expressions of the dramatic critics, the show will be a big success. Following are a few of the criticisms in part: "The singing and dancing are excellent and there are a large number of musical numbers designed to please the ear, while there are beautiful costumes to delight the eyes of the beholders. Mr. Williams makes the most of his part, and his apparent spontaneous funniness proved the magnet that caused much laughter. He has several songs, all of them new and all of them funny worth hearing. Especial enthusiasm is shown over the rendition of 'The Harbor of Lost Dreams.' In Far Off Mandelay and 'My Ole Man,' while the Chinese specialty of Tom Brown and Suren Nesario won several encores. The company is large, the choruses well drilled, composed of excellent singers and the comedy throughout is clean"—Toledo Blade "Flat-footed, ham-handed and longitudinal, he shuffled in like an aimless thundercloud, drifting into a belt of sunshine. He opened his mouth. The earband was on." ```markdown ``` Pythian Temple, New Orleans, in which is located the Temple Theatre which opened September 8 EDITED BY LESTER A. WALTON "Brefly speaking, that is a diagram of the production of 'Mr Lode of Koal', with the cleverest Negro comedian in the land, Bert A Williams, starring "Williams is the whole show, for the reason that he is so good that one hasn't opportunity to dwell upon the work of his supporting cast "The cast is good, too. It it were not the contrast would be striking. Principals and chorus are Negroes, which is to say that music, dance and dialogue are given with a vim, feeling and tuneliness that is natural to the colored race "Mr Lode of Koal' isn't wonderful in itself, but as a vehicle for Williams and his company, it shines like a transfer wagon transformed for a Wamba parade. "The piece is the best offering at the Casino in many moons. It stays the week out" - Toldeo News Bee Pythian Temple, New Orleans "Mr Lode of Koal' from the pens of Alex Rogers, who plays Buggsy, and J A Shipp, the stage manager, is not terribly funny, but Williams, with his easy, happy-go-lucky manner and funny dancing, makes it worth while. The music, written by J Rosamond Johnson, probably the most successful composer of the Negro race, is tuneful, and the many good numbers were enthusiastically received by the Sunday audiences "From start to finish the work is entirely done by colored people Written by colored librettists, with music from the pen of a colored composer, and every member of the large companies colored. Mr Lode of Koal' is an attraction of more than ordinary interest "Alex Rogers, as Buggsy, gets the most out of his lines Next to Williams he stands far out in the limelight, and on him much of the action of the piece depends "The company is exceptionally large and capable. Every member sings well and dances with ginger and grace. "One of the best things in the afternoon's entertainment was the singing of 'Chink-Chink, Chink Chink Chinaman' by Tow Brown and Miss Navarro."-Toledo Tunes WHERE THE SHQWS ARE.

IN THE SPORTING WORLD (By LESTER A WALTON) Royal Giants Defeat Cuban Stars. JOHN W. CONNOR'S Royal Giants won the first game of the series with the Cuban Stars for the colored championship because they lived up to their reputation of being the hardest hitting colored team playing ball. The two crack teams met Labor Day at Bronx Oval for the first time this season and the local players came out vicious. the box. When the broadside of hits had ended the Grants had made four runs and were enjoying a comfortable lead. Bronx Oval has never held such a crowd as that which witnessed Monday's game. Over six thousand fans assembled in the park which can only boast of a grand stand that seats about two thousand persons. The grounds reminded one an old fashioned camp meeting, as the majority of fans were compelled to watch the game from the field. Larl was the hero of the game, pitching gifted ball for the Royal Giants and making two hits that did much toward winning the contest. At no time were the Cuban Stars able to hit him sufficiently to do great damage. On the other hand, Padron was hit freely, and was compelled to turn over the slab work to Munoz, who did not permit the Giants to score during the test of the game allowing but one hit. However the Giants would have made many more runs had it not been for good pitching by Padron at several critical periods of the game. In two different innings the Giants had three men on base and Padron returned the side without a run. The home team also excelled in holding, the work of Mongen and Johnson being of high order. Santa Cruz played the best folding game for the Cubans Next to Earl, Johnson figured promptly with the bat The game was played according to ground rules, which made good fielding impossible. James, who made the longest hit in the game was allowed but two bases on what looked to be a home run. The Cuban Stars made the first run of the game in the third inning. One more was made in the fifth and another in the ninth. The Royal Giants also made their first score in the third inning. The line up: Royal Grants - Monroe, second base. Farl, pitcher. Johnson, short stop. Dunbar, genter field. Bradley, catcher Robinson, first base. James, right field. Bowman, left field. Mongen, third base. Cuban Stars - Herndez, third base, Govets, second base, Gatari, catcher, Padron, pitcher. Perpetti first base, Magraten left field. Bustamante short stop. Santa Cruz center field. Next Sunday the two teams will meet for the second time at Meyerrose Park, Ridgewood. Buckner and Bradley will be the battery for the Royal Giants and Mendelzow Corona for the Cuban Stars. The score Royal Giants 0 0 1 0 0 4 0 0 * 5 Cuban Stars 0 0 1 0 1 0 0 0 1 -- 4 Cuban Stars and Ridgewood Victors. At Meyerrose Park, Ridgewood, last Sunday, the first game was played between the Philadelphia Giants and Cuban Stars, which was won by the latter by the score of 9 to 7. From the playing of the two teams some of the onlookers were led to believe that neither side was any too anxious to win the game in order to take part in the second contest. In justice to the players, it can be stated that the high winds were responsible for many of the misplays, but there were other exhibitions that even 'Bonehead Barry' could not boast of Despite the ragged playing the game treated with interest until the last man was called out. Padron pitched for the Cuban Stars and Hayman for the Philadelphia Giants. The second game was played between the Ridgewoods and the Cuban Stars, the Ridgewoods winning by the score of 5 to 1. Landemann was in line form and had the opposing batsmen at his mercy throughout the game. The score.

Administratrix Straighten Your Hair DEAR SIRS — I have used only one bottle of your pomade and now I would not be without it for it makes my hair soft and straight and easy to comb. It starts a new growth. King W. A. WAKER, Sla. — Haircut, Tenn. (Formerly known as Oxenized O. Marrow) The use of Ford's hair Porr makes stubborn, harsh, kinky or curly hair straight and provides a smooth finish in an art style designed constr., with its length. Removes and prevents grooming, invigorates the skin and helps to keep out or break off a glove if it gives way. Absolutely harmless, used with splendid re- sults even on the youngest children. Assists in the care of a child, as laws of retirement are everywhere declare. Ford's Hair Pomade has imitators. Don't do anything that is alleged to be just as bad as Pomade. It will pay out. Look for this bomade.
