VOL. XXIII. No. 32. MOBBED OUT OF CONFERENCE Claim Made by Rev. J. H. Morgan in Letter to The Age DID NOT GET TRIAL Says Overtures Were Made to Lift Expulsion if Charge Was Retracted by Him SUBMITS PROPOSITION Willing to Meet Bishop Gaines and Members of Finance Committee Before Unbiased Body. Bent-town, N. J., May 10.—In an operative written for publication in THE N. J. H. Morgan, who several weeks ago during the session of the New York W. E. Conference charged for Bishop Gaines had misappropriar it to his own use, now claims that he has been mobbed out of the conference without judge or jury. Rey Morgan asserts that he is willing to give up an unbaked body of men not disputed upon the favor of Bishop Gaines, and prove his charge, giving the bishop to the members of the Finance Committee, equal opportunity to give their声响 to the controversy. Follows: Rey Morgan's letter: To the Editor of the New York Age, to express to you my heart's appreciation of your defense in the interest for right. Reforms come slowly but surely, and while this case slipped through on a technicality, the fact remains the same—that it was a case of who killed Cook Roblin, with the By-law, in the first book. "Colored Bishop is discharged. May have exceeded expenses allowed, but nothing more. The testimony against the clergyman was meager, and Judge Farmer remarked that while the Bishop may have discharged some of the rules of the clergyman, the A. M. E. Church Conference, he could see no future of any statute of New Jersey in the complaint." He further said "We might take with further evidence the matter before the grand jury, where the might be probed." He came in Philadelphia sixty-six years ago and served six four years as an illiterant preacher in the First District and twelfth of these in the New Jersey Conference, twenty as secretary. I have written and published the history of the conference and I challenge any bishop among whom I have served or any minister with which I have associated to note a single instance in which I have falsely accused a brother. In this case the church papers and those so-called Gospel ministers have used their pulpils as a means to offset the truth against me, to which I am compelled to answer. I am now asking my friends to patiently wait and hear both sides of the case before deciding. I will put this committee under oath, when they must tell the truth or perjure themselves. Bishop Has No Right to Appoint Finance Committee. But before doing that I want to call your attention to some questions on the actions of the last conference. One of the contensions was that the Bishop and his presiding elders had no right to appoint the finance committee. If we were wrong why did the gang who had the votes ignore the Bishon appointment, nominate and elect the finance committee. Second if our assertion was not true concerning the $150 going in the direction we stated, what was the necessity for the following resolution. "Resolved. That the accusation of grand larceny against the Bishop is false and malicious, and that any moneys received by him were duly paid to him by the New Jersey Conference, known as the Finance Committee, without his solicitation or suggestion." We will show you by this resolution that out of their own mouths the condemn themselves. This is the very rabbit you need to catch. In the power given or allowed the Infinite Committee to pay to him and others and the law of the Infinite strictly forbids his receiving it. If it was necessary to catch an unilocaneous column of $124 in and 618 in in that way, they get along without any unilocaneous column? Is it not up to the Littleton Sturges, pastor of Bitterown as chairman of this committee and Rev A L. Murray, to show what went with that year in the conference the incarnates? Why not this? **NOTE** If the statements were false and malicious, why did they infer charges against me giving them a chance to an opportunity to disprove them? Why mob me out of the conference without judge or lawyer? Why should they seek me to understand what I understand, that no questions would be asked nor apologies demanded, the expulsion lifted and no discrimination as to my official position and standing as a minister made. I now make the following proposition: I will go before any unbiased body of men, who are not dependent upon the Bishop for my trusting care, my trusting care, his Finance Committee, and I will prove (putting them under oath) satisfactorily inside of one hour that I have told nothing but the truth. I also desire to assist in the effort to extend to allow any man or party of men to drive me out of my Father's church and the church of my choice. And to my detractors I warn them that I will not cease my duty to serve my men; they are brought out in the limelight. REPUBLICAANSRALLY IN FORCE Warm Greeting to President Griscom—Introduction by Collector Anderson—Large Gathering of Party Workers—Much Enthusiasm Shown. On Tuesday evening there was a great gathering of the members of the Colored Republican Club of the City of New York, at their clubhouse, on West 133d street, the occasion being a visit from the President of the Republican County Committee, Hon Lloyd S. Griscom. Conspicuous among the assemblage were many of the tried and trusted workers of the party, who have stood the test of ardour campaigns. Much enthusiasm was manifested in long-stautigushed visitor, who has to recently attended the responsibilities of leadership in this county. Collector Anderson, in introducing Mr. Griscom, said "By the kind concession of the President of this club, I have been selected to present to you the speaker of the evening, and while I could have wished that it had comported with Mr. Middleton's idea or the fitness of things to have made the presentation himself, yet he has commanded me and I must obey. The King has said it and it to be. The task, however, is a very pleasant one, for although I have been brought into pleasant working relations with many presidents of the Republican County Committee, I can recall no one of them whose support imputed so little that was personally insatisfactory, as the present president, and his immediate predecessor. Time was when the gentlemen of the city abstained from the work of preliminary politics, and like that important duty to be performed." It was thought that the scholar was regarded with suspicion and distrust by the workers of the party, and while I am not quite prepared to say that in the past there was not some slight prejudice against the scholar in politics, I think I can truthfully state that this prejudice was almost always stirred up by some other scholar. Rarely have I noticed that the workers have entertained an prejudice against or distrust of the scholars who come down into the arena and stand shoulder to shoulder with them in the hard and rough work incident to party victory. Of course, there always have been, and perhaps always will be certain vast and inscrutable undercurrents of prejudice within political organizations, which are difficult to overcome when aroused, but you will find that it is very frequently the scholar who stirs up these latent prejudices in order to defeat or discredit some other man of scholastic attainment, whom he might regard as a rival. We trench diggers and wage earners are usually most happy when we have a scholar to lead us. I say we because I am a wage earner like the rest of you, or at least I am a wage receiver. I am one of those who are compelled to live to-day on the wages of yesterday—except when I am anticipating those of to-morrow. Value of Organization. "I think I can assure the guest of the evening that we all are happy that such men as himself and Congressman Parsons have been willing to take the leadership of the regular Republican organization in this county, and I think I can promise him the absolute loyalty of the Colored Republican Club of the City of New York. We believe in the regular Republican organization. In this day of independence, when men who once were Republicans are striking at the party, it is refreshing to find a man like Mr. Griscom in command. He will make a good and sufficient captain for the fight this fall, and under his leadership I confidently expect to see the party march to victory. "Of course the Republican organization, like all other political organizations, has undoubtedly been injured by a few men not altogether worthy and not altogether fortunate, who have belonged to it, and who, therefore, claim the right to shelter themselves under its authority, but any man who is not bereft of his senses, who will take the trouble to commare the achievements of the last five Republican Governors with those of the Democratic Governors who preceded them, will be forced to the conclusion that the Republican party will win again this fall Mr. Griscom is now perfecting his organization, for he is not only a Republican, but an organization Republican. Fifty years ago to-day the Republicans of Illinois assembled in convention at Decatur and adopted a resolution, endorsing the candidacy of Abraham Lincoln for President and instructed the twenty-two delegates from Illinois to the National Convention to vote for him as a unit. Eight of these Illinois delegates were Seward men, and but for the resolution put through in this Republican organization convention, Mr. Lincoln would not have been nominated, and the glorious half century of READ THE NEW YORK AGE Appears on the news stands of Greater New York every Thursday Delivered to any address upon application Is the LEADING ADVERTISING MEDIUM of its kind GIVES DECISION ON HUMAN RIGHTS U. S. Justice McKenna Reverses Sentence in Weems'Case Laws of Philippines and Other Posse- sions of the United States Must be in Keeping With American Principles Washington, D. C. May 10—No little discussion has arisen at the Capital by reason of a recent decision handed down in the United States Supreme Court in the case of a light-house keeper. Weems, a colored man in the Philippine service Weems was charged under the old Spanish law operative in the Orient with having falsified a Government voucher. The facts in the matter were these: That he was directed to employ two men to work for him and did so, but later the two men left him, did their work satisfactorily, and the allegations show that he signed their names to secure to himself the payment for the work which he had done in their place. Under the present United States statute governing the Oriental possessions, he received a cadenza temporal sentence—twelve years of painful labor with a ball and chain on his hand and foot. Justice McKenna, of the United States Supreme Court, a few days ago handed down the decision acquitting Weems holding that the United States Government could not countenance punishments so harsh and cruel in their nature, even though in keeping with the old Spanish code, He rehearsed the history of harsh punishments under the Code Napoleon and showed how the trend of Christianity had been toward the amelioration of penal conditions in this respect until it was far away from anything like the punishment to which Weems was sentenced. What is particularly noticeable in the handing down of this decision in some of the opinions presented in the opinion thus rendered by the Supreme Court is in direct opposition to that handed down by Justice Taney in 1857 in the famous Dred Scott case. Justice McKenna's decision is based upon the highest principles of human rights regardless of race or color, and is in a sense a challenge to Congress to enact any statute for the government of national or other possessions which will countenance laws not in harmony with the highest American principle. Justice McKenna is a Catholic. Through a peculiar coincidence the only voice dissenting from his opinion in the court came from Justice White, of Louisiana, who is also a Catholic. It is like's that the opinion will soon be considered one of the greatest ever handed down for human rights irrespective of race, in the history of this country or of the world. DR. FRISSELL MAKES REPORT. Special to Tnr New York Agr. Hampton, Va. May 10—Principal H B Frissell, in submitting the forty-second annual report relative to conditions at Hampton Institute, discusses the financial situation as follows. The endowment fund, exclusive of the bequests mentioned above and the remainder of the legacy due from the Byington Estate, amounted to $2,180,376 88 on April, 1810. This sum should be increased to a total of about $4,000. The policy of using no legacies to meet current needs has been strictly observed. There is reason to believe that the increased cost of living and the enlarged salary list will bring the current expenses for the present year to a sum exceeding about $4,000. Education Board, the Slater Board, and the Peabody Board have continued their support of Hampton's varied work. The Boston Hampton Committee, the New York, Brooklyn and Philadelphia Armstrong Associations, the Springfield Orange, and Tuson Hampton Club, Indian Assn. and other active societies in the North have done much to create interest in the school during the past year, and their work in raising funds has been invaluable. For their gifts and for those of the churches and Sundays Schools we have given to the rich man's open-handed aid. I wish to express equally the sincere appreciation and gratitude which we all feel. NEW YORK, THURSDAY, MAY 12, 1910. JUSTICE SCOTLAND HONORED Tendered a Surprise Testimonial Dinner in Newark by Essex County Colored Republican Association—Over Seventy-five Presents Special to THE NEW YORK WEEK Newark, N J, May 10.—On Wednesday evening, May 4 a surprise testimonial dinner was given to Justice J H E. Scotland by a committee of officers of the Essex County Colored Republican Association in honor of Mr. Scotland's re-election for the third term as the representative of the voters of Essex County. The dinner was held in the room of the Evening Star Social Club, 21 Nesbit street, A C Clark proprietory. Over seventy-five friends were in waiting for Justice Scotland, who was entirely unaware of the reception in store for him. As he entered the club, in company with a friend, Mr. Scotland was requested to meet one of the members of the association on a matter of business, and was taken on a surprise when informed that the gathering was present to do him honor for his faithful and honest labors toward the political welfare of his race Speakers Compliment Guest. Samuel Harrison tested as toastmaster and introduced several speakers, who complimented their host in kind words of affectionate regard. An appetizing menu was served, and between the courses S. Harrison, Andrew W. White, James M. Miller, Louis A. Sears, Wm H. VanBake, VanBureau Powell and others offer good words for their friend and chairman R Henri Strange entertained the gathering with several traditions, which were heartily enjoyed. Mr Scotland, in response, thanked his friends for their continued confidence and assured him that his efforts in the past, present and future were for the elevation of his race, and expressed confidence of the white neighbors' opinion of the Negro as a man and citizen, despite the many cross roads to which our race must pass, because of the professional self-seeking and graft-giving of many so-called leaders who interest the rank and file of political organizations throughout the country. He added his thanks to see to it that they do missionary work among the weak and thus ensure that the Negro contends for the which all other countries deal—because of his interest in the political and economic development of our country in common with all citizens NEW JERSEY DOCTORS MEET. Special to The New York Age. Newark, N. J., May 11—The third annual meeting and dinner of the North Jersey Medical Association was held in this city at Davis' parlsers last Monday evening, which was attended by the leading colored doctors of New Jersey.

F Ghee, on "Opportunities of the Profession," Dr W H Sutherland, on "The Other Side," Dr James F Lawson, on "Isms and Therapies," and Dr W P G Urling, on "The Toothless Age." During his address Dr Wheatland stated that what the colored professional men of the race need is a reputation for scientific attainment, that a greater inheritance could not be left behind to a man's family, as it is more valuable than money, as an estimable service is rendered to the people in general. View of the wives of the doctors were present and parook of the appetizing menu prepared for the occasion. The officers and members of the association are J C.

Washington, May 10—The white man's ancestors have bequeathed to him a lot of afflictions from which the Negro is free, according to Dr J L. Minor, of Memphis, Tenn., at the American Ophthalmological Society, one of the organizations of the Congress of American Physicians and Surgeons, which was in session last week. RESENTS REFERENCES IN FORTUNE'S ARTICLE Rev. J. M. Henderson says Writer Misunderstood Conditions PRAISES BISHOP GAINES Declares Churchman, Although Handcapped, Has Reached Highest Place in House of Bishops. Rev J M Henderson, in a letter to the Ace, resents reference made of Bishop Game by T Thomas Fortune, published in last week's issue, and highly commands the bishop, whom he characterizes as a lion-hearted, stalwart old hero, who has learned great practical lessons at home and beyond the seas, and whose service as President of the Financial Board of the A M E Church has been unsurpassed. Rev Henderson's letter follows in his cart in The New York Age, May 5, the one-time brilliant T Thomas Fortune gives a painful exhibition of his failing intellectual grasp. He is still the adroit master of telling words and phrases but he has coached the mental condition of young children, film creatively to attempt to gold gold or add perfume to a violet or make sport of the grotesque Spynx or ridicule ancient Westminster Abbey. He no more entered into or understood the proceedings of the New Jersey A M E Conference than a blind man would see or understand a moving picture show. Not Familiar With Conditions. He did not realize that of the one hundred and ninety-eight thousand and hundred dollars of income that fiscal year by the A. M. E. Connection, twelve thousand, eight hundred and seventy-seven dollars was raised under the administration of Bishop Galines, which was an increase of five hundred and seven dollars over the previous year, and that those who had been in charge and wide-awake ministers were anxious to surpass that record this year. Mr. Fortune had no idea of the vast missionary work recently undertaken in Africa or of the great work performed by the A. M. E. Church in America. He was merely the invited guest of a disgruntled minister. he was an unsympathetic, uninformed onlooker whose once happy life had been a purpose. He had no good friend to advise him. He rashly dashed off what turned out to be a glittering jumble of sharp-edged words and phrases such as he once could with design and to telling effect. Bishop Gaines does have stooping shoulders but those who know of his more than half a century of toll for the church and race who can appreciate something of the hardships he has endured and the deeds he has performed see in his gray hairs and bent form marks of heroism. He is a man of good character, poor Mr. Fortune makes sport as unthinkingly as a boy would laugh at the frayed coat and wooden leg of an old soldier. Shame on you, Mr Fortune! It is true that Bishop Gaines is not educated. But it is all the more glorious that thus handicapped he has been able to rise among his now men through the strenge of strenge of strenge and the highest place among the Bishops, that of president of the House of Bishops. He may not know books as Mr Fortune knows them, but he knows men, he knows the world, he has learned great practical lessons at home and beyond the seas, and at home and beyond the seas, and a glory crowned giant towering above the gabbering pigmies who turn from their childish play to fling pebbles of ridicule at his hoary head. Bishop Responsible for Establishment of Mercede Brown College Back of his Morris Brick College lifts its enduring walls and stands as a lasting monument to his unceasing zeal and heroic endeavor and aplendid achievements. His services as president of the Financial Board have never been surpassed. It is true that his administrations are marked by frequent stir and by unrelenting courage, are worth admiration of the fearless Lincoln, as is that of President Taft, so ever has been and ever will be that of every carnest man of courage enough to stand for his convictions. I would no more pretend to say that the A.M. E. Church is free from all defects that I would to be protected for the sake of our country or for anything human. There are ill conditions and evils in our grand old church. we all know that, and a great many of us honestly seek to make such improvements as we can in our day and generation and gentle woman has through all of these years clung lovingly to him speaks more powerfully than can mere words of the quality of the lion-hearted, stalwart old hero who beneath the grim of battle and the wounds of us was maintained the tender affection of a full female woman who has grown gray in the weary march with him through the weary years REAL ESTATE MEN ORGANIZE Form Board of Trade With View to Helping Financial and Moral Condition in Harlem—Will Not Rent to Objectionable Element. The forming of a Real Estate Board of Trade is the latest move among the hustling business men in Harlem, and the present outlook is that the organization will not only help the financial conditions in that section of the city, but will also be a factor in the moral development of that neighborhood. Business conditions and competition have long ago made it clear that there should be some understanding and co-operative action among the colored agents who operate largely in the vicinity of 135th street. West An organization is being perfected with Jack Nail as president, and in the movement are nearly all, if not all, of the agents and brokers in Harlem Among some of the things which the board will put into force will be the eliminating of the undesirable element from the houses controlled by these men. Valuable renting property in Harlem has been affected by influx of undesirable persons who cause respectable tenants to shun the houses where they live. If the plans now under discussion go through, it will be impossible for such persons to locate in any of the houses under the management of colored agents. The organization has other matters under discussion which will tend to better the business and the renting conditions in general One hundred and thirty-fifth street, east of Lenox avenue, and vicinity is not only the largest and most rapidly developing settlement of Negroes in New York, but it is said to be about the liveliest Negro business community in this part of the country. The leads, and the frequency in which colored agents are opening up modern up-to-date apartments with every convenience and appointments, is creditable to their business ability. PREPARING FOR SESSION Booker T. Washington Writes That Extensive Arrangements Are Being Made—New York Committee Busy—Theodore Roosevelt Will Probably Deliver an Address. Booker T. Washington. President of the National Negro Business League, in a letter to THE AGE, writes that extensive preparations are being made for the annual meeting of the League, which will be held in New York City, August 17, 18 and 19. Former President Theodore Roosevelt will probably be one of the speakers during the session of the League. Dr Washington's letter To the Editor of The New York Age Through your paper I wish to call the attention of the members of the National Negro Business League, the members of the various local legislatures and the members of also the members of our race generaly to the fact that the National Negro Business League will hold its next annual meeting in New York City on August 17, 18 and 19, 1910. The citizens of New York have already begun to make generous preparations for this gathering. In increasing degree can be made of real service to our race. They have several values: First They bring men and women together who are actually doing things. They give a chance for personal acquaintance: a chance for one man to get information and experience and secondly to himself in a way that will accomplish in the way of making progress. Third These meetings give an opportunity for a vacation, or an outing, of a kind that very man can do himself and his family once a year. Fourth At the season of the year when the meeting will take place New York is likely to be a very attractive and comfortable spot, and especially is New York a fortunate place in which to meet because of its important things that can be seen. Aside from the regular program of the league, which is going to be an unusually strong and attractive one, we are planning to have eminent outside speakers of the white collar and in the business industry to have former President Theodore Roosevelt. The New York committee is not only preparing to make this a great event so far as the league work is concerned, but to surround it with attractions and versions in the way that will greatly add to the value and interest of the meeting. I want to urge that our mon not only be present in large numbers, but in so far as they can that they bring their wives and other members of their families with them. Now is the time for each one to begin to make preparations to attend the meeting. All of the drama in the way of reduced railroad rates, etc. that can be provided for will be secured. Other announcements giving important detailed information will be made by officers of the league later. (Signed) Booker T Washington, President. Has Largest Circulation NEGRO SECTION IS TO BE MOVED Whites Want Property Now Occupied by Colored Citizens BIG REAL ESTATE BOOM Plan on Foot to Settle Negro on the West Side of the City Instead of South Side Churches and School Buildings to be Torn Down and Modern Dwellings to be Substituted. Special to THE NEW YORK AGE. St. Petersburg, Fla., May 10.—A big real estate boom for property on the South Side of St. Petersburg has brought about such a demand for lots that a plan is on foot to move all the Negro residents from the South Side to the West Side Such a step would mean that all buildings now occupied by the colored citizens as residences and used as schools and churches will be torn down to make way for up-to-date dwellings for whites. The Negroes have settled thickly south of Central avenue and from South street west to Tenth street. In this area is included some of the nicest located lots in the city. Building lots for whites have become scarce, none being offered that are as near the center of the town as those now occupied by the Negroes. A company known as the Mound Park Investment Company has been organized which will buy lots and other holdings of the Negro, and the Negro with his family will then be requested to move west of Ninth street and locate near Fourth street. Some of the Negroes have expressed their willingness to move, some having already made overtures to the whites concerning the purchase of their lots, while others declare they will not leave their homes which have been built after years of hard work and sacrifice. Instances where the property will not be sold an attempt to secure control will be made by the whites by appraising it at a fair valuation and this will be paid the Negro. In the district is located four or five churches (Negro churches), several business buildings, whose occupants are Negroes, and various other mercantile establishments manned by the Negro Real Estate Company Capitalizes for $50,000. The company will have a capital stock of $50,000 and will be divided into 500 shares with a par value of $100 each. A meeting, the first of the present company, was held in the Board of Trade rooms Saturday evening, when the matter was discussed, and then a subscription paper was circulated. Nearly one-fifth of the stock was subscribed for at that time and since, and a committee has been appointed which has gathered several thousand additional money. An election of new officers will be held at an early date and then the active operations of the company will be started. Those lots, offered by the Negroes themselves, until the entire south side of the city is cleared of the Negro and his belongings. The matter has been talked of for some time, but no concerted move was made. The demand for these lots was never so apparent as during the present tourist season. The lots close in on the north part of the city, almost all be taken up by those who come here to make their winter home. The past year there were demands for lots close in, but they could not be furnished by the real estate agent on the north side of the city. Those lots on the south side were shown the prospective buyers, but when they found that their near neighbors would be Negroes, the sale was not made. Numerous times during the past winter the buyer had agreed to take the piece of property shown, when he sound contending that a Negro would be his neighbor. Realizing that to leave the Negro on the South side of the town would be a detriment to that portion's growth, a move was decided upon, which has now assumed definite shape MARYLAND MEDICS BEBSION. Special to The New York Age. Baltimore, Md, May 10—The sixth annual public meeting of the Maryland Medical, Pharmaceutical and Dental Association was held at Ames Memorial M.

Episcopal Church brot gat about by the disgraceful charges made against two of her bishops We waut to state our position firstly because we Ic mot want our position misunderst 0.1, ‘and, secondly, because as members and patrons of the Negro church, we want tosee the dark and «destous practh es in the church stopped We recognize the Negro church as a necessity for the Negro race We fully realize that to injure in any degree the church, her influence and the people's confidence would be to impair in the game degree the moral testraint upon the race. The buttressing of the moral code is vital to the race's progress. We therefore cherish as sacred the rightful sphere and methods of the church, just ‘as we do the character and friendship of churchmen. We rejoice in her suc- cesses. We sorrow in her losses. But we sound the tocsin of alarm when the Negro church does not live up to its high mission and its peculiarly grave responsibilities, So now we call—as it is our duty to do—upon all the churches and especially the A. M. E. Church, to cut out the cancers eating at their very vitals, We want to see the bishops quit baying their bishoprics and selling them to others. We want to see the guilty Nowe levying their tolls from ? présiding elders and cringing wreachers, We want to see these same bishops quit promoting to the presiding elder’s office clerical libertines and graft- ers. We want to see these bishops quit exacting forced donations from the al- ready overburdened churches on their visits when they get an annual salary ‘of $2,500 and $500 for incidental ex- Benses, We want to see the bishops in- ¢roduce financial methods in the church and rendey strict accounting for every dollar contributed by the hard-working men and women of the race We should Uke to attend a cohference when we did not hear the bishop interrupt a Preacher speaking of the moral influ- ence of his church upon his neighbor- ‘hood with the question "How much money have you got?” These are just a few of the things we want to see. We are going to run a series of articles by a churchman deal- ing with the abuses in the denominations without gloves. not because we love the church less, but the race more We speak plainly; grafting must stop. cor- Tuption must be weeded out, unworthy churchmen must be unfrocked RAILROADS IN HAYTI. Almost on the day of the death of ex-President Nord Alexis, the implaca- ble foe of American capital, a New York firm succeeded in clinching big railroad contracts with the Haytian government Despite the opposition of two powerful ‘German interests already centered in the island and many officials, the firm has fecured the most valuable and smh ant contract ever secured by a foreign concern. At a cost of several millions F dollars, the railroads about 400 miles én length, will run through the extremely ich mineral and agricultural sections of ‘the country The country will give a handsome subsidy to the roads. In short, the resources of Hayti, 20 accessible to the American market, will be exploited for all they are worth, but with a firm teapervising power in the hands of the government. ‘This, we believe, marks the beginning ‘of @ new epoch in the history of the Blick Republic.

Authentic news was received here a two days ago, and it was also written that Mr. McDonald, who built the extensions to the Jamaica Rail- way, will be come to this island to travel to the thousands of skilled and qualified workers for his Haytian un- workers. The officers he has just secured are the ones among the most valuable after granted by the Haytan Government to the reign consern. In connection with the case Mr McDonald bought the mission from a Haytan during the visit of Nord Alexis, but the President refused point blank to satisfy the agreement. A few months after Vera Downfall, Mr McDonald, accompanied by a few New York and Chicago swathes, proceeded to Hayton, assuring though Kingston on the way there, an struggle for the concession was won in earnest. The German minister, Peter Ann Prince, took direct the award and toward the enemy the Haytan Secretary, received to carry out the concession or to agree asked for. M.

Manager SOCIETY VAUDEVILLE SHOW A the society vaudeville show given last Friday evening at Grand Central Palace and of the Hope Nursery several novel features were introduced, and the large audience appeared to be well pleased with the form of entertainment provided. Participating in the vaudeville contest, which occasioned much interest, were the Lortonghtly Whist Club of Jersey City, the Upson Sigma Club, the Alpha Physical Culture Club, the El Dorado Club, and the Mignonette Coterie Club. The first prize $50 in gold, was won by the Alpha Physical Culture Club, the second prize $25 in gold, by the Upson, Sigma Club, and the third prize $10 in gold, by the Mignonette Coterie Club. The Alpha Physical Club presented a one-act farce comedy entitled The Crushed Actor, which was written, staged and acted by the members of the organization. It was easily the best number on the program, and aside from the funny situations in the piece the young men went through their skirt without a hitch. In Thomas W. Mosley the Alphas have a comedian who has more histrionic ability than many of those who earn their living as professional performers. He ought to go on the stage, for he would make a success as a Thespian Others in the cast who assisted in winning first prize for the Alphas were Leonard Salinear as "Mr Golddust Gotrox", Joseph T. Gant, as "Lucy Gotrox", and Gerald F. Norman, as "Chesterfield Moke MRS A S REED MRS. A. S. REED who had charge of the Society Vaudeville Show The winners of the second prize, the Upsilon Sigma Club, under the direction of Miss Dora B. Cole, appeared in the musical sketch "The Upsign Dolls" The dolls were not a bit mechanical in their signing and dancing, and muck their entrances and exits just like sure enough stage folks. Their costumes also clothed admiration. Taking part in the sketch were the Misses Corinne Cooke Carrielle Cole, Ida Lasuter, Corinne Thomas, Helen Kemp, Sylvia MacPhearson, Beatrice Campbell and Learine Saunders. Youthful Soubrette Scorms Little Mildred Hayward, who evidently aspires to be Aida Overton Walker No 2, is mainly responsible for the Mignonette Coterie Club receiving the third prize. She is about the most precocious infantile singe, and dancer that has been seen in New York City for some time. To dance and sing before hundreds of people seems to be an ordinary incident which evidently affords her much pleasure. Other songs were sung by the Mignonette Coterie Club, but none came within hailing distance of the diminutive singer for first honors. "Flora's Birthday" was the title of the one act musical comedy in which the Mignonette Coterie Club appeared. In the cast were Miss Eva Green, as "Flora", Miss Henriette Smith, as "Dorothy", Miss Mildred Hawward, as "Evelyn" William Gaddsen, as "Vierree", and Cassie Norwood, as "Rastus" They were assisted by Misses Phoebe Lee, Addie Jenkins, Marnie Jackson, Irene Wilkerson, Laura Garland, and Messrs Lloyd Atchison, John Wilson, Benjamin Muller, Ralph Thompson, Arthur Davis and Jervie Wilson The opening number of the bill was a one act comedy, "Chums," presented by the Fortnightly Whist Club. Although the members of the cast fully demonstrated that they knew something about acting they would have appeared to better advantage had a more suitable playlet been selected. Then, they were first on the bill, and the Jersey artists were inconvenience somewhat by the noise attending the sitting of the ticket holders. In the cast were Miss Litta Cannon, as "Mrs Patterson, Miss Minnie Smith, as "Lella Sterling, Christopher Gordon, as Mr Putterley, and J F Carter, as "Tent John Bande. The Century Club entertained in a minstrel first port, which performance was somewhat uneven, some of the numbers being pleasantly rendered and others quite to the contrary. With a little more rehearsing these young men would very likely have been in the one, two, three class. The personnel of the minstrel com- pany P. William Cassey, Jr., inter locutor C. Harding Garden and J. Henri Davis ends R. Gugnion Blay Alonzo Smith, J. Frederick Davis Louis Warrick, R James Blay, Walter Reed and M. Floyd Reedick, Jr. Chester B Moore and James Bailey represented the El Dorado Club in a sketch entitled the "Two Jews." MUSIC AND THE STAGE LESTER A. WALTON. EDITED BY In introducing illustrated songs with living pictures Mrs A S Reed, who had charge of the program, produced something entirely original, and the numbers were very much enjoyed. You Are the Ideal of My Dreams" was sung by Mrs Dass Laples, and the pictures were posed by Miss Edith C McKinney and A Melville Morgan C Croshy Potter sang. In the Light of the Silvery Moon," and Miss Madge Thomas and Walter Reed posed for the pictures. The only criticism made of Mrs Reed's innovation was that in several instances the posers stepped out of position before the curtain had entirely fallen. Launcelot Bowls, Theodore Williams and Leonard Bowls sang. Then We'll All Go Home," and the youngsters were appropriately costumed for the number. The judges of the vaudeville contest were R C McPherson, Jack NaI and Lester A Walton The members of the Board of Managers of the Hope Day Nursery are Mrs. I. A Dorsey, president. Mrs. A M Robinson, vice-president. Miss. M Eato, secretary. Mrs. S Thomas, assistant corresponding secretary. Miss. L Dias, treasurer. Miss. A C Carr, assistant treasurer. Mrs. C W Anderson.

THURSDAY, MAY 12, 1910 A Chance for Real Freedom There are many colored families who are living in crowded houses on small plots of land in towns or cities who want real freedom and real opportunity for themselves and their children. It is very difficult to rear children in a crowed town or city. The place to rear children is in the country. In Macon County, Alabama, the colored people have a rare and exceptional opportunity. This is the county in which the Tuskegee Normal and Industrial Institute is located. There is plenty of good land for sale on easy terms. There is a good schoolhouse, and the school term lasting from seven to eight months in every part of the county. The white people in Macon County are of the very best class. There is no disorder or racial trouble. We advise colored people who are now living in crowded towns or cities, either in the North or in the South, and especially those who have children to raise to come to Macon County and buy a home where they can get plenty of land to cultivate and rear their families in the country free from the temptations of the cities and towns. --- There want real crowed town In Ma which the There is The w colored people have children their families New Amsterdam Musical Association (INCORPORATED) First Class Colored Musicians Furnished for all Functions HEADQUARTERS 322 W. 59th St. New York Send all communications WM.
