VOL. XXIV. No. 18. Metropolitan Mercantile and Reaky Company Named Defendant Court Asked to Take Charge of Concern's Affairs and That an Accounting Be Made ANOTHER BIG MEETING HELD New York and New Jersey Stockholders to Act Jointly—Company Submits Interesting Figures to District Attorney Following the failure of the stockholders of the Metropolitan Mercantile and Realty Company to reorganize last Wednesday evening at a meeting held in Newark, several suits for the appointment of a receiver have been instituted and more are threatened. The first suit asking that a receiver be appointed to take charge of the affairs of the company and that an accounting be made, was instituted in the Supreme Court, at Brooklyn, Friday, by Irs. Martha Bell Washington, who purchased two lots in Rahway, N J., the defendant company, but claims it upon investigation she found that company had no right to sell her property. is said that within the next few weeks the Metropolitan Mercantile and Company will be made defendant large number of suits brought by holders. important meeting of New Jersey olderers was held Tuesday evening company N. J., which was called by Rev. J. C. Love, of that place. H. H.ennis, of New York, was present and represented the New York stockholders. Mr. Dennis and Rev Love were mainly instrumental in preventing a reorganization of the company as had been planned by the officers at last week's meeting in Newark. Stockholders of Two States Get Together. The New Jersey stockholders had contemplated bringing suit for the appointment of a receiver in the courts of that State on Tuesday of this week, but after conferring with Mr. Dennis it was agreed to hold a joint session with the New York stockholders and the Company's pursuer. A meeting of New York stockholders will be held next week, probably on Tuesday evening. After Tuesday evening's meeting in Montclair, H. H. Dennis stated to a representative of the ACE that the stockholders of New York and New Jersey would probably make the Metropolitan Mercantile Company a dividend-procedured brought in the United States District Court. The meeting held last week at the St. James A. M. E. Church, Newark, was attended by over five hundred stockholders. It was very stormy at times and considerable ill feeling was shown. But few present knew that the State of New Jersey had revoked the company's license to business in that which information was received would mild tumult. President John H. Atkins and H H Dennis were principals to most dramatic incident of the evening. The statement had been made by one of the officers that the Metropolitan Mercantile and Realty Company had assets receivable on stocks and bonds to the value of $478,000. Mr. Dennis, who was sitting in the rear of the church, asked permission to make a few interrogations. When granted permission to ask several questions, Dennis, the company's attorney, Atkins he associated the statement made to those present that the company had assets receivable on stock and bonds amounting to $450,000 to the information given District Attorney Whitman that the concern had assets receivable on stocks and bonds valued at only $157,469.59. Although there was considerable cross-firing the question was never satisfactorily answered by Mr. Atkins. Figures Submitted to District Attorney.

MORRIS CUTS PATNETIC FIGURE Chicago Lawyer Disappoints Washingtonians — Residents Looked for Speech Along Constructive Lines—Spent His Time Criticising. Special to THE NEW YORK AOK. Washington, D. C., Jan. 31 —The much-talked-of meeting at which Edward H. Morris, of Chicago, was to speak has come and gone. It was a very pathetic sight to see a man who has the reputation of being brilliant and able coming here to speak before an intelligent audience and spending practically all of his time in criticising that which has been done by somebody else or tearing down that which has been done. Many expressed themselves as feeling sorry for the sad spectacle this Chicago lawyer made of himself. Throughout his address not one constructive note was struck. His whole aim seemed to be to show the weaknesses of somebody else. He appeared as a rank pestimist, persons who had been so much interested that he outline some great constructive policy that would be of real service in upbuilding the race, but they were sorely disappointed. Instead of hearing a great statesman speak, it seemed instead that they heard porings which would have been expected from a little ward politician. Morris' appearance was gloomy and disappointing, and the general impression made was that the head of the U. M. G. was the only opportunity to show that he had constructive ideas and was fitted to lead such an organization. REPUBLICAN CLUB ENTERTAINS Ex-Gov. P. B. S. Pinchback was the guest of honor at a beekeast dinner given last Saturday evening by the Colored Republican Club at its headquarters, 54 W. 133d street. The affair was largely attended.

According to Rudolph Lemieux, Postmaster General of Canada, who recently attended the inauguration of the union of South Africa, representing Canada, the race problem is causing South Africa much concern, and is already the great question of the country. Speaking on the subject while in New York, Postmaster General Lemieux said: "The great problem which South Africa now faces," said the postmaster general, "is the Negro and Asiatic question. In total alone there are 128,000 Asiatic and 100,000 Negro States will have to decide whether they will follow the example of Cape Colony and give them a political status." With Mr. Lemieux were Mrs Lemieux, his secretary, Captain Hector Verrot, and Mrs. Verrot. They were met at the pier by Dr Eugene Lemieux, of Montreal, brother of the postmaster general. AEROPLANE COMPANY FORMED. The first colored aeroplane company to be organized in the history of aviation was formed Monday evening at the Hotel Maco, 213 West 53d street.

Collard, secretary; Lee S. John Bryant and Dr. V. T. Tho. Aeroplane will be by the company, which hichine constructed wi and put on exhibit NEW YORK, THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 2. 1911. ODD FELLOWS TO PAY FOR MORE SOFT SNAPS Sinecures Given Those Who Overrode Majority at Baltimore CREATE A SUPREME COURT Members of Old Crowd Appoint Themselves to Poisonies That Will Take Hundreds of Dollars Out of Treasury Special to The New York Acr, Washington, D. C., Jan. 31.—The men who are in control of the Grand United Order of Odd Fellows, and who kept themselves in power last fall in Baltimore by ignoring the will of the majority, have now found another way to lavishly spend the money of the society. The Morris-Houston factiop got together and decided to create a Supreme Court. Ben Davis was made chief justice for a term of four years at a salary of $700 a year. W. L. Houston was elected associate justice for eight years at a $00 salary. William Morris, a brother of Edward Morris, was also made associate justice at $600 a year, when he was 62 years old. It is said that William Morris will be succeeded in two years by Edward Morris, who will then retire as Grand Master of the order, and become elevated to the position of chief justice. Ben Davis is slated to succeed Morris as Grand Master—that is, if there is not big revolt and the old machine turned out. Harry Cummings is now attorney general at a $500 a year salary, which is said to be the reward for his services rendered at the Jaffna Johannis will be made an associate justice when Ben Davis is elected Grand Master—that is, if he is elected. Although the plan to provide sinecures for several of the "big guns" was carried out, yet several unpleasantities were exchanged. Ben Davis and "Link" Johnson ran the board and were opposed to almost every point made by Morris and Needham. Houston and Morris, who are now fallen out, could hardly be excused for their role. Houston is now back in Washington, Morris has withdrawn his support from him. Rumor has it that shortly before leaving Chicago a stag was given in Houston's honor Morris was not present. It is said that Morris sent word that he would be unable to attend as he was too busy. The Odd Fellows' Journal is now in Washington, having been taken from Philadelphia, where he was edited by J. C. Ashbury, a publication made smaller, having been reduced from eight to four pages. The auditor who was hired to look into the affairs of the paper found that the order owed J. C. Ashbury $100.85, which has been paid. OPPORTUNITIES IN THE SOUTH Prof. Walter S. Buchanan Tolls of Excellent Chance the Negro Hes to Become Indispensably Identified With That Section of the Country. Special to THE NEW YORK AGE Brookwood, Ala., Jan. 31.—Before a large audience of white and colored people, who have interested themselves in the moral and intellectual elevation of the Negroes of this section. Walter S Buchanan, president of the State Agricultural and Mechanical College for Negroes, spoke here last week on the subject, "Our Opportunities in the South." The possibilities of the South as an agricultural center and the immense opportunity before the Negroes in its mines and on its plantations, become a hopeful asset in the South's certain development, was emphasized by the educator. He urged his people to become indispensably identified with the resources and industrial activities of the South, and among other things said: "The South has only begun to develop. We have hardly scratched the surface of her natural resources. If the impoverished condition of the Negro who in this district alone receives a million-dollar payroll, is not materially strengthened and improved by this happy production of wealth, it will be due to his own lack of energy and foresight. We are partners in all these magnificent industrial operations. "Let us not lose an inch more of the ground we occupy, but let us in every manner strengthen our hold upon the people of South." The South has coal miners, let us get out cleaner coal than anybody else and report to work as often as the whistle calls. If we are iron workers, let us prove our interest in the business by the earnestness of our service. If we are laborers, let us work each day as if we expected to be placed in charge of the job next day. If we are mechanics, let us be thorough and reliable. If we are business and professional men, let us be high-minded, efficient and beyond reproach. "We have a splendid opportunity to create a healthy public sentiment through our various relations as personal and domestic servants. "The work of race read)justment cannot be settled by legislative enactment or increased legislation. These means might suffice were the matter to truly local. When a Negro wants a job, he does not appeal to Congress; when he is ready to borrow money, he does not lay the matter before the legal statute; when he is in need of friendly stance, he does not advertise his con- dition in the newspapers, but goes directly to the leading white people in his own community and lays his condition and claims before them. GRANT FUNERAL LARGELY ATTENDED Impressive Ceremony Over Remains of Great Bishop—Beckett T. Washington Delivers Feeling Address special to THE NEW YORK AGN. Kansas City, M. M., Jan. 31.—The funeral services of Bishop Abram Grant, D.D., who died January 23 at the Fifth Episcopal Fulence, 588 Washington Boulevard, Kansas City, was held here Thursday at Allen Chapel A. M. E. Church, corner Tenth and Charlotte Streets. In this church the body lay in state all of Wednesday. Until twelve o'clock Wednesday night throngs of persons crowded through the aisles of the church to take a last look at the remains. At midnight the house was filled to its utmost capacity by persons who were attending the Masonic ceremonies conducted by members of the 33 degree division of the Masons' Fraternal Organization of this city, Bishop Grant was a $33 degree Mason, an Odd Fellow and a Pythian. The services were conducted by the Right Reverend Henry Blanton Parks, of Chicago, Bishop of the Twelfth A. M. E. District. The funeral sermon was preached by Bishop W. J. Gaines. Bishop Gaines found his text in the latter part of the tenth verse of the twenty-third chapter of the Book of Numbers. "Who can count the dust of Jacob," and the number of the fourth part of Israel? Let me die the death of the righteous, and let my last end be like him. Possibly the chief attribute given the peer of bishops by Bishop Gaines was that he had been instrumental in bringing more souls to Christ than any other of the bishops of the connection. One of the most magnificent obituaries ever read at the instance of the death of so great a man in our beloved bishop who was honored the haven of rest" was that read of Bishop Grant by the fearless editor of the A. M. E. Church Review and President of Western University, Dr. H. T. Kealing. He left nothing unsaid that would add greater charm to the people by the life of this able gospel minister Bishop Grant was born August 27, 1848, near Lake City, Florida, in an ox cart. At this particular time his mother was being borne away in the ox cart to another master. When Bishop Grant reached the age of about twelve years he brought the neat sum of $6,000 in one of the slave marts of Columbus, Georgia, a city in which now is situated one of the church's greatest official organs, the Southern Christian Recorder. During the war he escaped from his master, but returned to his old home in Florida after the war. In Jacksonville he was employed as a head waiter in one of the leading hotels, at which place the prominent ministers and bishops of the Mothodist Church (South) generally stopped when in this section of the country. These devout religionists becoming attracted by the brightness of the young man, began to teach him theology. After a short study of the theology, he was admitted into the ministry. During the past thirty-seven years the bishop has preached the gospel of Christ, and twenty-three years of this time he has been a bishop, being ordained an elder by Bishop Thomas M. D. Ward in 1874, and in 1888 elevated to the Bishopic. During his administration as a bishop, almost a quarter of a century, he presided a full term, at least, over the ninth, sixth, first, fourth and fifth Episcopal District; part of two terms he was serving the Fifth District; and he filled the remaining part of Bishop Embrys' time, who was over the seventh district, which included, at that time, South Carolina and Florida. The Bishop was known on both continents, and while in England once was entertained by the English statesman, Hon. William E. Gladstone, at his Howarden Castle. The bishop had, during the past few months, put Bishop Parks well in touch with the work of the district. Twice during his natural lifetime he was married, the first time to the elder sister of his second wife. His Excellency, W. R. Stubba, Governor of Kansas, who was to have delivered an address upon this occasion, was unable to attend the funeral, but sent a highly complimentary letter to Professor Kealing, expressing his deep regret at being unable to attend the memorial exercises of one among our race when he had plumed much confidence in and had come to look upon as a personal friend and one of the really great men of America. Ex-President Theodore Roosevelt sent the following telegram: "H. B. Parks, Kansas City, Kan. "Am greatly grieved to hear of the death of Bishop Grant. I respected and valued him and I thank you for notifying me. (Bignod) "Theodore Roosevelt." One of the addressers on this occasion said that the nineteenth century had produced three really great Ne- (Continued on Page 1) CHANGEWOULDAFFECT NEGRO BOARD MEMBERS Congress is Now Considering Change Which Would Also Eliminate White Members of Board of Education. Special to THE NEW YORK AGE. Washington, D. C., Feb. 1.—If Congress considers favorably the suggestion of President Taft that a commissioner of education be appointed to assume charge of the public schools of the District of Columbia and control them without the assistance of a board of education, as now constituted, several colored members of the board would be affected by such a change. The colored members of the Washington Board of Education are Mrs. Mary Church Terrell, R. R. Horner and Rev. William V. Tunnell. In considering the question of economy in the business administration of the schools, complaint is now being made through the public press of the heavy expense due to the existence of a dual system of schools here composed of white and colored officials from the assistant superintendent down. There are many persons who believe that Congress is about to make legislation that will do away with such an arrangement of the colored officials and that the colored people of the capital are about to lose much of their prestige in educational circles. Others think that the agitation through the press at present is but to prepare the public in a measure for some few slight but important changes. It is generally believed in Washington among the colored people that a dual system is indispensable, and that if it is discontinued after being in operation for nearly two score years, its reestablishment will only be a matter of a short time. White officials in colored schools, it is claimed, would find it impossible socially to meet the large number of colored people of various classes in their homes as it would be necessary for them to do in any effort to successfully control the colored branch of the educational system. CHARGES OF FRAUD TRUE Democrat Sues Baltimore American for Libel and Loses—Paper Proves Hundreds of Illegal Votes Were Cast. Special to THE NEW YORK AGE. Baltimore, Md, Jan. 31.—The Baltimore American has won a notable victory for the freedom of the press and for an honest ballot in Maryland. It was sued for $10,000 damages by Isaac P. Horsey, a Democratic supervisor of elections in Somerset County, who alleged that an article published by the American says that the election in that county was a barefaced fraud did him injury. The American had the ballot boxes brought into court and showed that hundreds of Republican ballots were thrown out by the judges. It also proved that the ballot was fraudulent, containing a number of fictitious nams with heavy black lines to guide Democratic voters and with no lines at all to guide Republican voters. Trial of the case lasted four days and a verdict in favor of the American was rendered by a jury composed of about an equal number of Democrats and Republicans. The verdict is counted as the most severe blow yet administered to fake and fraudulent ballots, which are used at every election in Maryland counties having a considerable white as well as Negro Republican vote. JERSEY POLITICIANS RECOGNIZED. At the regular meeting of the Essex County Republican Committee last Friday evening J. H. E. Scotland, the colored leader of the county, was named one of the committee-at-large to represent the colored voters of the county. Judge Scotland was also made chairman of the committee on halls. James Jamson who holds a position the Board of Street and Water Department, and leader of his district, was appointed chairman of the committee on credentials. LUBERIA COMPLETES PLANS Washington, D. C., Jan. 31 — The Congress of Liberia has passed legislation necessary to enable that country to negotiate the contemplated loan of $1,000,000 for the funding of its debt. The State Department has been so advised in a cablegram received from Hillary D. Trump, American minister to Monrovia. The will be made by American, British, French and possibly German bankers. Gainesville, Ga., Jan. 31.—When a posse of citizens went to the home of Henry Shakeford, a Negro living near hore, to give him a horse-whipping for an alleged insult to two white girls. Shakeford began shooting, killing Ebb Wiley, a well-known man of this place. The remainder of the posse fled. Shakeford made his escape and has not been apprehended.

Glenn of North Carolina, Who Spokes in Interest of the Negro at Paterson. Special to THE NEW YORK ACK. Paterson, N. J., Jan. 31.—Former Gov. R. B. Glenn, of North Carolina, addressed one of the largest men's meetings ever held in the Y. M. C. A Sunday on "The Hope of the New South." The significant feature of his address is his able presentation of the facts showing the Negro's material progress in the South and his ability to contribute to the progress of society. Ex-Gov. Glenn spoke in interest of the National Religious Training School at Durham, N. C., and it was the consensus of opinion that he made one of the strongest appeals for the Negro ever heard in this city. So pathetic was his appeal that men in the audience wept when he narrated about the Negro fatigue during the recent illness. He said that the Negroes as capable of bringing tangible things to pass as any white man, and that the Indian was a complete failure. During the evening Master David Irwin Martin of New York, entertained by giving a violin solo entitled "Concerte," by De Buinot. Miss Helen Elise Smyth, of New York, a talented pianist, played a waltz by Chopin. These musicians of no little ability enraptured the large white audience and were heartily encored. MEMBER OF UNIQUE CLA88. Miss Heloise Ozier Greene, of "Homewood," Brooklyn, graduated from P. S. No. 113, Brooklyn, N. Y., last Friday in a class something unique for the term in that it graduated at 100 per cent, the entire class of fifty-three passing the mark, and containing with it the gold medal, as allings shown the greatest proficiency in the English language of any scholar throughout the Greater City during the term, who two years ago could speak only Spanish. PRICE: 5 CENTS MUST BE NO DISCRIMINATION Railroads Should Furnish Equal Accommodations For All Passengers NEGROES WIN VICTORY --- Judge Sanford of United States Court Renders Favorable Decision in "Jim Crow Case" ROADS MUST OBEY RULING Interstate Commerce Commission Has Issued Edict to Treat All Alike, Irrespective of Color. Special to THE NEW YORK AGE. Washington, D C, Jan. 31.—Railroads must furnish equal accommodations for blacks and whites in the South! Although the Interstate Commerce Commission issued a ruling sometime ago that there should be no discrimination by the Southern railroads on account of race or color, yet there has been a disposition on the part of some roads to ignore the commission's edict. The roads colored passengers on many roads in the South have been much inferior to those given white passengers, although both paid the same amount of fare. The recent decision of Judge Sanford, of the United States Court for the Middle District of Tennessee, in dismissing the demuror of the railroad in the "Jim Crow" car case, originally brought in Georgia, is a big victory for the Negroes of the South who have been fighting for equal accommodations. The appeal may be taken to the Supreme Court, but the in end the question will resolve itself into a question of facts as to whether discrimination against Negro passengers is practiced. The Georgia Edwards case decided by the commission in June, 1907, was a test case brought against the Nashville, Chattanooga and St. Louis Railroad on complaint that cars furnished Negro passengers were not the equal of those furnished white passengers; that no wash bowls towels were provided, and no smoking compartment. It was also that the Interstate Commerce Commission had no power to require equal accommodations. This answer has been overturned by the courts. Under the Georgia law separate accommodations must be furnished and under the order of the commission equal accommodations. This means that cars which are the equal in every respect must be provided by the railroads for their colored patrons, or, as a condition of failure, pay a heavy fine, so heavy that it would not be possible.Equal accommodations on day coaches will not present much of a problem, but the question of Pullman accommodations will be a vexing one under the commission's ruling. SEGREGATION CASE UP. Baltimore, Md., Jan. 31.—Attorney George S. Willis and Thomas C. Buddell Saturday before Judges Harlan and Duffy in the Criminal Court began a test of the Negro segregation law regulating the residences of black and white families in Baltimore city. In his opening argument Mr. Willis propounded four legal questions for the court to decide. They are: 1. Has a municipal corporation the power under its police power to pre-vent what shall be Negro blocks and what shall be white blocks in the city limits? 2. Is it a reasonable exercise of the police power of a municipal corporation to determine whether or not a land owner has the right to use such land as he may own as a place of residence? 3. Is it incumbent upon each person about to procure a residence in the city of Baltimore before doing so, to determine according to the provisions of the West ordinance whether or not the said block wherein such residence is situated is a black or white block? 4. Does the ordinance fulfil the requirements of the charter provision? Decision was reserved. In the progress of the argument there appear the judges of Justice Lorenz Zeller, of the Court of Special Sessions, First Division, of New York; Dr. Robert Rosseler and Philip Volz. The visitors were escorted by Mr. Volz, and Justice Zeller occupied a place on the bench with the judges during part of the hearing. TRUE REFORMERS TO MEET. Special to THE NEW YORK AQR. Richmond, Va., Jan 31.—Grand Master Holmes, of the True Reformers, has called a special session of the Grand Fountain for Tuesday, February 21, at which some understanding will be reached relative to the policy to be pursued in conducting the affairs of the order in the future. The session will be the most important ever held by the organization, as much depends on the plans to be adopted by the Grand Fountain. A large meeting is expected, as an effort is being made to have each Fountain send a delegate. AMWUNG IME CHURLHES aac ruc Ove 8 YP.

Brooks Exolite Comment—Company to Build Large Arade—Big Contest at Howard Theatre. Regular Correspondence of THE AGE. Washington, D. C., Feb. 1.—Considerable comment has been occasioned through the public press anent the causes of the recent resignation of Maj. Arthur Brooks as commandant in charge of the battalion of correlated high school cadets. As forecasted solely in The Age some months ago, Maj. Brooks has resigned because of the nature of his duties at the White House which at odd times necessitated the employment of a substitute in his position. It has been noised abroad through the press that the officer has been annoyed by certain colored persons connected with the public school system of which he was and is still an employee, because he refused to use his influence at the White House to their political advantage. Colored persons are attaching little credence to this story since no sufficient evidence has been offered to substantiate it. A recent decision by the comptroller of the treasury has made it necessary for all school officials to give up their entire salary to any substitute teacher their position instead of a portion as heretofore. It is told that the resignation was bundled in by Maj. Brooks when this topic was under discussion relative to his position. All of the friends of the officer have urged him to withdraw his letter to the board of education announcing his intention to resign and a petition to the board begging them not to accept any resignation under the circumstances has been in circulation. Maj. Brooks has refused to reconsider his action. A few days ago a number of colored men well known in this community met at dinner and discussed the plans of the newly organised Lincoln Memorial Company to build a large arcade at the corner of Tenth and U streets where extensive property has been purchased by the company. At the conclusion the dinner sight of the greener present had subscribed $1,000 towards the culmination of their purpose. The company has announced that their plans are in such shape that they will have their building complete within a year and a half or two years. Hon. John C. Dancy is president of the organisation and has associated with him as general manager and secretary respectively Thomas J. Calloway and Walter A. Pinchback. Those who made the large subscriptions a few days ago are Villani A. Bowie, Zeph P. Moore, John Dancy, B. H. Vick, George W. Bohlinon, Ralph W. Tyler, W. Sldney Pittman and William L. Houston. A considerable portion of the money was paid in to the company, and it is thought that several similar subscriptions will be made at an online concert program was successfully executed at the Howard Theatre Friday consisting of a musical and文艺 entertainment composed of more one hundred performers portrayingvolution of the Negro in picture, song story.

Y., January 31.—Among the bodies who attended the Phyllis Wheatley Club, held at the residence of Mrs. Dickerson, at Ilion, mention is made of Miss A. B. Camp, Miss L. W. Freeman and Mrs. Baynard. They report a fine time. Col. James Sanford, of Syracuse, came to Utica last Thursday evening and gave the sixteen ladies who are in the drill to be given by Hope Chapel social club their first lesson. They did splendid and will surely make a hit. The Brotherhood League is increasing in membership. The young men of Utica met at the parsonage Friday and organized the Hope Chapel Silver Leaf Club, with Frank Jones as Captain. This club will raise money for the church repair. The following are the officers: President, Albert Fletcher; vice-president, Albert Bannett; secretary, Bert Titus; treasurer, Frank Jones. The Silver Leaf Club of young men will contend with the Golden Reapers' Club of young ladies, and the rivalry as to which can draw the largest audiences and raise the most money, is looked for by the officers of the church. Mrs. M. J. Strother is manager for the girls and Mr. Frank Jones for the young men. The Sunday school, since the election of Miss Camp, Miss Freeman and Mr. Dingus, has grown from 20 to 50 pupils. Miss Friend's class held the banner last Sunday. Through the efforts of the pastor, four clubs are now at work, all manned by captains who know no failure: Hope Chapel Social Club, by Mrs. Sarah Thomas; Golden Reapers, by Mrs. M. J. Strother; Brotherhood, by Daniel Green, and Silver Leaf Club, Frank Jones. Mrs. Elizabeth Lavendar is conducting a series of revival meetings for Hollis of Rome. Rev. Hollis reacts a success so far.

A. Collins, were the officiating clergymen. The happy party left the same evening for Philadelphia on their honeymoon, but returned to be at their home Sunday to the surprise of many. The bride is organist of Bethany Presbyterian Mission, and was present as usual. Atlantic City Notes. Atlantic City, N.

Regular Correspondence of THE AGR. Austin, Texas, January 31.—Justice of the Peace J. W. Woods, constable W. S. Houston, plantation manager R. S. Newson and assistant manager Harlem McLeod, all white, of Burleson County, Texas, are on trial in the Federal court for a violation of the 13th Amendment. The jury has been selected and from testimony thus far it seems that the men named conspired to work labor excessively at a nominal fee, without a semblance of a trial. There were no racial discrimination as all nationalities were liable to seizure in the name of the law. One white traveling man that fell into their clutches and was worked by them for several weeks came from the State of Washington to give testimony and enter suit for his detention. They have eight of the best criminal lawyers from over the state arrayed against District Attorney C. A. Boynton of Waco, and Assistant District Attorney C. C. Cresson of San Antonio in Judge T. S. Maxey's court. About 100 witnesses are in attendance and it is to be a long-drawn legal battle. The city is in mourning for Bishop Grant and his wife. All the colored business houses agreed to close Friday evening when the remains of the distinguished couple passed through the city limits to their former home and last resting place, San Antonio, Tex. Metropolitan A. M. E Church and citizens presented a beautiful floral offering while the train was at the depot. Mt. Bonnell Lodge No. 2 F. & A. M presented a costly floral offering. A delegation accompanied the remains to their last resting place. Bishop Grant was pastor and built the magnificent edifice of Metropolitan as it stands today more than 25 years ago. He stood well with both races. J. M. Codwell, of Houston, a representative of the Baptist Missionary and Eduaction convention delivered an interesting lecture at First Baptist Church last week. He was followed by President R. S. Lovinggood, of Samuel Houston College, and President A. W. Agard, of Tillotson College. It was quite a high-class affair and an educational treat. Prof. L. C. Anderson, ex-president of Prairie View and the present supervisor of the Austin public schools, made a snappy talk. Rev. J. B. Plus, pastor of First Baptist Church, preached the annual sermon to the King's Daughters last Sunday morning. This charitable organization is doing a needed work at present in renovating the wards for colored in the city and county hospitals, Mrs. F. E. Dennis, an alumni of Tilloston College, is president. A donation was given. The communicants of Wesley Chapel M. E. Church gave a box party last week and every one enjoyed a feast. The young uniform rank of K. of P.'s gave an enjoyable entertainment and supper the past week. The proceeds are to go towards purchasing new uniforms and other paraphernalia. Sir Harry Lott and Sir Jas. H. Wilson are captain and recorder respectively of the 'Braves." C. A. Culberson was selected Senator for the third time and quite a crowd heard his speech of acceptance. There is some concern in local circles as to who will pluck the plum of Superintendent of the Colored Deaf, Dumb and Blind Asylum. There are quite a number of applicants, notwithstanding the fact that Prof Thompson, the present incumbent, has made an efficient official.

Within a few days of the United States Supreme Court decision in the Alonzo Bailey peonage case comes another gratifying decision by the Federal District Court of Tennessee, upholding the Interstate Commerce Commission in its demand that railroads must furnish equal accommodations for both white and colored passengers. Undoubtedly, this case will be carried to the Supreme Court of the States for final decision. Even the tribunal uphold it. life in assuming that he carried out stances of rights for THE NEW YORK AGE: THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 2, 1911 EXPLAIN, GENTLEMEN. EXPLAIN, GENTLEMEN. The failure and insolvency of the Metrippolitan Mercantile and Realty Company is a public scandal, a diagrace upon the Negro race, and a blot upon the good name of the people of this community. The Age has carefully gone over the figures, the collections, liabilities and assets, and, with every allowance made for bad investments or mistakes and blunders in management, we are yet unable to discover why the Metropolitan should have failed. Indeed we are puzzled to understand how they could ever have failed. An official statement made by the officers of the company as late as July, 1910, admitted collections of more than $500,000, and claimed resources of an equal amount, with payment due on stock of $125,000, and cash of $100.32. Where are these assets? Where is the real estate included in the assets? What became of the $500,000 collected? Was that amount eaten up in the Savannah failure and the Eighth avenue failure? The officers of the Metropolitan Company owe it to themselves, to their followers, their race and the authorities of New Jersey and New York to satisfactorily explain the expenditure of this vast sum of money. We have had too much high financiering, and our poor people have already been too much imposed upon. former if there is nothing else to fill space, you will discover stuck in the corner among the jokes, or the ship news, or some such unoccupied corner, as thoroughly "Jim Crowed" as you are when you thrust yourself into most gatherings of white people. Your sons, your daughters, must find their expression and their position and a record of their daily life in the columns of the Negro newspapers. Eventually they must in the large find their employment among Negroes. Do not then run away either from your newspaper or from your race. The wisest and best course you can follow is to take the white man at his word. Leave him. Go, do something for yourself, and believe us, he will then seek you. Then "the supposed-to-be Negro" Negro, as the Editor puts it, we especially need him, the editor means the educated, the trained Negro. His influence is needed in the church, in the social gatherings of every kind. They are still shouting and bellowing in the Negro church around the corner, just as they did in the woods fifty years ago. Strong drink is still consuming them, the concealed weapon keeps too quickly from the pocket, tilt and immorality still lurk in their quarters. The influence and training of the educated Negro are here. Come back to them, you who are trained to your own. You must lift them up. You cannot rise without them; for like it or not, it is by them and through them that you are very largely judged and classed. They are yourselves. Stir with your race and help build it up.

CONGRESSMAN ROBERTS OF MASSACHUSETTS. When Captain Peary of North Pole fame was testifying a few days before the House committee, Congressman Roberts, a Democrat of Massachusetts, asked Captain Peary the following question: Why did you not take white members of your party with you on the final stage of your trip northward, so that there might be creditable corroborative evidence? This was a deliberate and gratuitous insult not only to the Negroes of Massachusetts but to the Negroes of the Nation. What in the world has Congressman Roberts to do with the race of a man on the color of his skin? He is in Congress to represent the nation and he has no right to draw lines even by implication between citizens of the United State. Congressman Roberts has gone out his way to insult the Negro race in our people in Massachusetts should re-other him "LILY WHITE" JOURNALISM: The column concerning the pro- gression of women in monthly publication, purported to be published in the interest of the magazine is writ- ten by a New York woman.

Gilmer, of The Advocate, Mr. Napper is very properly and commendably interested in having made faithful records of the part the Negro has played in American history. He saws: The war of 1812 was principally a naval one and I find at that time when it was difficult to obtain enlistments there was one Negro sailor to every six or eight whites. The attack on the "Chesapeake" was for the seizure of four sailors, three of whom were Negroes. I find they messed together then without any objection and when hot balls and chain shot were flying there was no segregation in actual fighting. I must make allowance for local coloring, but Wilson gives the documents which are undisputable evidences and is always free to use direct references. I certainly wish some of our professional men would get down to research work, dig out the facts and give us reliable books of the real service we have done in this country. That is in their line of work, they have the time and access to original sources. Our business men can not do it in this fierce competition when a single look backward may throw them in a hidden ditch ahead. What do you say? What do you think? I would like to have your opinion. Mr Gilmer makes his reply the leading editorial in the latest issue of his able publication. The reply is both smart and pointed, and we may endorse it as the opinion of all men who have seriously studied the situation and sincerely desired to see done such work as Mr Napper has in mind. Mr Gilmer says The Advocate is much of Mr Napper's opinion. There is much need of him, and has had a retrial of the Negro's contribution to the history of this country. He has not been looking in men fully qualified to do the work, but the details of the results What Mr Napper has written in the last months but of years. Original open and against them. The war was striking bravery. It was that we deplore this state of affairs because of the fact that the result of these Nations that lowly do not pay low wages, hard working men and women but because it is just such disturbances as this that are driving so many of our thrifty colored farmers out of the rural districts into the thickly settled towns and cities. There have been scores of energetic Negro farmers throughout Georgia within the past three months who have given up their valuable lands and have migrated to other parts of the country, because conditions have been such in these communities as to positively deny them that protection of life and property which all citizens seek. To urge them to hold fast to their lands in the face of death is asking more than can be expected of them, and this departure of Negroes from the counties where such conditions as this exist is to be looked for as long as the county authorities allow these unbearable wrongs to be perpetrated against our people without taking the proper measures to stop them. So there were slaves once in Connecticut. The New Haven Register, through Frederick Calvin Norton, the lecturer, has made the discovery, if discovery we may name it. The Register says: It may shock some of the righteous who suppose that they and all their ancestors to the beginning of the chapter were born abolitionists to find that their state also, once on a time, acknowledged the suppose divine dispensation that the black man should serve the white man as his slave. That Connecticut provided opportunity for the Negroes to elect their own governor and have their own government is probably due more to Connecticut habit than to Connecticut recognition of the rights of the slaves. There was a time, thus we see, when Connecticut was not "free soil." They do say, however, that Connecticut was the first state to voluntarily abolish slavery. Perhaps it would be unkind to claim that this promptness was due to the early discovery that there was more profit in selling the slaves to the South, where they were needed, than in keeping them in the North, where they were not needed and did not pay. But we are seeking to do justice, if we are wise, rather than to throw flowers at Connecticut. The difference it will be seen between Connecticut slavery and Virginia slavery was that Connecticut was willing to allow the slaves to have their own government and Virginia was willing to have no government at all rather than give up the slaves.

ENDORSEMENT OF BUSINESS MAIL To the Editor of The New York Age: Your letter of the 16th last, making inquiry about the reliability of Moscow, Hand and Monk of Los Angeles, General Agents for the Allensworth Colored Colony established in this state, has been received. In reply permit, to say we are glad to state that, we have found them perfectly reliable, and we have also found what they told about the Colony to be absolutely true. They came into our city last spring and urged our people to invest in the Colony, but before doing so, we sent three sets of committees composed of ministers, business men, and farmers down to Allensworth to make investigation into the nature of the soil, the products to be raised, the general location, the chances for future success of the Colony and of the conditions and terms of the contracts we were to sign, and each committee returned here and published a signed report. In the newspapers, declaring that they found that these men had not misrepresented anything in regard to the Colony. They even found the prospects for success even brighter than they had anticapped. And each committeeman purchased town lots and farm land in the Colony. The land is rich and productive, some of the best in the state, the climate uniform, without extremes of hot or cold weather; the location fine for shipping.

POLITICAL NOTES of an of inst republican res in marshal for her. Last Wade of Henry Colot Lodge of Moss, Moss was reelected U.S. Senator on the wort. It in the joint convention by 140 votes out of 250, with the majority. Sherman L. Whipple had 12, or less than the whole party strength. Senator Lodge was nine short of the Republican strength. Of these nine so were for Butler Ames, two were for President Lowell of Harvard University, and one for former Governor Curtus Guild, Jr. Of the five short for Whipple two voted for Lodge, one voted for Ames, one for John R Thayer and one did not vote at all. Speaker Walker's appeal had the effect of turning from him the four votes which he had yesterday. Two of them went to Lodge—Messrs. Arkwell of Worcester, and Greenwood of Dewett—and two went to President Lowell of Harvard—Messrs. Silvester of Worcester, and Wood of Cambridge. --- A brand new party was born in Washington the other day. It is called the "Progressive Federation." The leading nurses of this happy infant are mostly editors, journalists and publicists who are evidently most determined to get into the game in some way. Among them are S. S McClure, Lincoln Steffens, Louis F. Post, of the Public; Norman Hapgood, and others of high names and reputation. Old line politicians are smiling over the performance of Ed. Morris, who pledged Mr. Taft 750,000 colored Ode Fellows. The Odd Fellows and Ruth combined are something like 300,000 Where are the other 450,000, mer women and children. Charles W.

SOME AGENTS WHO OWE ADVERTISE IN THE AGE Pastor Russell Finds Much in the Bible on Satan's Past, Present and Future Washington, D. C., Jan. 29.—Pastor Russell addressed large audiences twice today in Convention Hall and also in Masonic Temple. He had close attention from very intelligent congregations. Washington, D. C., Jan. 29.—Pastor Russell addressed large audiences twice today in Convention Hall and also in Masonic Temple. He had close attention from very intelligent congregations. We report his address on Satan, the rebel angel. Doubtless many of the audience were surprised when told that Satan is not in some far-off place stoking fires and torturing human or other victims, but that he is present amongst men, an invisible angel of evil, ably supported in his work as an adversary of God by legions of other fallen angels, of whom he is a master—"Prince of demons" either because of his superiority of nature, or because of belonging to a high rank or grade than the ordinary angel. It was a surprise to many to learn that Satan so far from being favored, is beautiful, according to the Scriptures, and that he is supervising the work directly and through the fallen angels his services to mislead and to deceive humanity, putting light for darkness and darkness for light error for truth. Pastor Russo's text was taken from Romans xvi. 21: "The end of peace shall bruise Satan or your fathers shortly." He said. The time was not long ago, who is intelligent people to be held of every thing in the Sphere, respecting visible stars, bodies, and land the messengers of God and the messengers of Satan the destroyer not longer be held. Under the lure, creeping light of the N. Distress thou manst thou things which it is that thou have come and thou have not been with friends ever, drudges of fury, rejoices in thee, thee is le in the w ills of t more re phy and w can acompl not the Al can deny the presen the possi We are safe d our judgme of God and to con outside of t hooded The Bible, and the encyclopa- tical philosopher, is all of it. Explainations, a though written sine- of them centuries apart are in no perfect accord. Thus is Satan. Bible tells us respecting Satan's di- fection and the book of Revelation, written more than three thousand years later to us of his binding for a thousand years, of Messiah's reign and Satan's ultimate destruction Isa- lab and Ezekiel tells us of his at one time being in full harmony with God and that then he was the covering cherub, glorious grand, beautiful and that his name was Lucifer, which signifies the Morning Star All of the angelic heavenly hosts are termed stars, bright ones, but Lucifer, being of a higher order, was styled the Morning Star, the Brightest Star. It was at that time while in Divine favor that Satan permitted the lodgment in his mind of a disgustful thought respecting his creator. He thought of how, indirectly by being in higher responsibility he could work some wonders and do some things better than the Almighty. He craved the opportunity to make a demonstration of what he could do. But the Scriptures declared that first of all he said this merely in his heart and uttered it not "He said in his heart I will ascend into heaven. I will exalt my throne above the stars of God still farther above his ones associates. I will be as the Most High a ruler. --- The Opportun Time Came Never had there been sin in heaven Satan was the first of all its inhabitants to desire to entertain a rebel Hous thought and to bring it to a con summation. He had the thought in abeyance until the opportunity afforded, and God himself afforded the opportunity, with full knowledge of the consequences, and with the desire that this test of the entire heavens host and of a human race as well, should be effected because God seeketh not the worship of constraint, but "seeketh such for worshipers as worship him in spirit and in truth," voluntarily, tofully. It was when Satan behold our first parents, in the image and likeness of God, yet not spirit but flesh, earthly that he perceived the opportunity of gaining the coveted power for an empire, separate from that of Jehovah. In the first pair the Adversary behold a new thing, a creature of Godlike qualities and possessed of the power propagate his own species. Satan realised that the conquest of this pair and the bringing of them into subjection to himself would signify the capture of a world full of people eventually—that the enslavement of the parents would signify the enslavement eventually of the race. Satan's Methods Were Successful. Satan's Methods Were Successful. We cannot deny that Satan's plans were logical and that he has carried them out with great success—so that the Scriptures declare him "the Prince of this world" (John xiv, 30); and again, "the God of this world" (II Corinthians iv, 4). Nevertheless, his victory was not so great a one as he doubtless expected it to be. No doubt he expected that he was capturing an immortal race. Quite probably he believed the falsehood he told mother Eve, when he contradicted the Word of God—that sin, that disobedience in eating the forbidden fruit, would bring upon them the penalty of death, "dying thou shalt die." Satan's charge was that God had misrepresented the facts for the purpose of holding his creatures in mental slavery to himself, that he did not wish them to be wise, therefore he forbade the earring of this particular kind of fruit and declared the penalty of death for the transgression of his law "I, Satan, assure you that you need not be afraid of the fruit; I assure you that it will do you good, and that you will not surely die from the eating of it" Alas! Mother I've believed the Adversary and disbelieved her good, and then enforced her husband well thinking, no doubt that she would not die and that the serpent had told her the truth and that God had been the deceiver. St Paul tells us that father Adam knew better and ate the fruit knowing that it would cause his death willing thus to disobey in order to maintain the fellowship of his who whose life he realized, was armed for firing. When the living sentence began to go to execution when our first parents were driven out of Idea to lie with the terrors and thieves with their tortures to the dust, no doubt Satan was disappointed. He had rather left the Prison of a noble living from a prison of humility than the prison of a world of death. How far from the day that the same life he had lived with mankind at the World of death is still with it. It disappears in the ways of a world, and that the soul of death eth t shall die. From that world he has been using the fall of the world the history of our surreptitious world of wonderful T. ory hitherhed hinds, the most civilized it is fr. and by many Christians and natural to believe th. and n. and for all De p. and on. and d. and sh. and py de no true is this not to be to be with a and knoaked known g. but a man over the loath The Ea on Acels It would have been as easy as not for God to have blotted out of existence outside both Satan and the fallen angels, and not also, and to have completed an or creation, angelic and human.1 such was not the Dltime Program; God ways are not as man's ways, but higher as the heavens are higher than the earth (Isaiah 1:9, 20). Satan the Great Murderer. Satan the Great Murderer. No less an authority than our great Lord and Redeemer tells us that Satan was a murderer and a liar. He declares that he was a murderer from the beginning and niode not in the truth, when he speaketh a liie he speaketh of his own, for he is the father of lies (John will, 44). It is well that we keep this Ditine testimony in our minds. It is well that we note just what the first great liie was, namely, Satan's misrepresentation, saying, 'Ye shall not surely die.' It is important that we notice this, because so thoroughly he 'Satan accomplished his deceptive body, heaten and civilized, accepts Satan's version of the matter and discredits the Almighty's. Let us note also that Satan is a murderer, that he murdered Father Adam and Mother Eve, and that his life is still murdering our race under the just laws of bigotry. The error of be believing Satan instead of God has gotten many into the confused situation of disclaiming that God proposed that man should live forever on earth in a Paradise, and, as his family would in increase and continue in harmony with His Divine regulations, the boundaries of his Paradise would be enlarged and be a Paradise filled with the knowledge of God and the home of a perfect humanity. In accord with God, prince legged to maintain everlasting life here. But, says this theorem, by Satan's life and our first parent 360, we die and by dying become 361, and some of us go to be some eternal. THE NEW YORK AGE; THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 2, 1911 have no knowledge and for which there is no Scripture proof. But let God be true and let us see how and wherein Satan lied when he contradicted our Maker, and let us see also how our race was not sent to heaven or to a hell of torment, but was murdered, killed, put to death—"The wages of sin is death." "The Gift of God is Eternal Life" (Romana vi. 23). God, while permitting Satan and sin and depravity and death to take their course, has not been idle. He has had, and still has, a great plan for human salvation—a plan for recovering man from sin and from death and from all of his fallen conditions, a plan of restitution to human uplift, a plan by which the Seed of the woman shall yet, figuratively, crush the Serpent's head, or undo Satan's great original misdeed—recover man from his murdered condition and from his fallen estate to all that he had at first, plus the knowledge and experiences of the present life and plus the experience, incidental to his uplift, during the reign of Messiah, for which we pray "The Kingdom come." The Scriptures clearly show us that all of this recovery is to be accomplished through the merit of Jesus' sacrifice "the just for the unjust". That the work has not yet begun is evident. We are still living under the law of sin and death. The Messiah-Kingdom must come in power and great glory and be established the Scriptures tell us in a great tone of trouble. Then the earth will be used to bloom as the rose, and the wildness and the solitary places will be made glad and all mankind will receive divine blessing and opportunity to return to Dylane favor and eternal life as human beings. And the willfully disobedient and negligent of those opportunities will die the Second Death, from which there will be no recovery no resurrection, no body. "The Saints Shall Judge the World" (1 Corinthians v. 2) These are blessings of institution for well-born and the whole world are written to cannot be brought about until just the special situation of a special place is the salvation of the very elect not to that nature but to a heavier place. The best destiny—shall be ing of these blessings in our work in education and up society is about society. The best blessings and work then to be inaugurated will be positioned to earth's nature and perfection to the Jewry. Sataṇ Serves the Saints In laying our trust, God will wisdom, for seeing the world is able to use the wretch of a mind of the four angles and of Saturn to press and to work our hearts to his best Church and the power of will which does not thus work in our own despair. Howe the Divine promise that all these shall work together for good to those that love God to the called ones according to his purpose. Satan as an Angel of Light Satan as an Angel of Light St. Paul dollars of Satan. "We are not ignorant of his devices," and he tells us that Satan and his servants transform themselves into servants of righteousness, etc. We see this principle in operation as we read Church history. Satan, all through this Age, has sought to pervert Christian hopes and distort Christian doctrines by presenting counterfeits of Bible truths. Thus, for instance, the Scriptures tell us that eventually the Church, "a little flock," will be associated with Messiah in his Kingdom of glory to reign a thousand years. It was Satan's method to counterfeit this hope, to suggest to men the establishment of an earthly Kingdom with an earthly little flock, an earthly glory, an earthly reign. This was set forth as the fulfillment of the second Psalm And when later on some of Satan's dupes began to get free from some of his snakes, he became their leader in an opposite direction, called them reformers and led them to claim that all the civilized kingdoms of the earth are the kingdoms of Christ. This is the status of affairs today. The world in general believes that Christ's Kingdom has come even though they are still praying "This Kingdom come, thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven" Satan has led them away from careful attention to making their own calling and election sure by Christian character development. Into the various reform movements of the world, whose trial time has not yet come. Thus Christians of all denominations have been bewildered con-fused by the artful wiles of our enemy. Now, however, as the morning of the New Dispensation draws our eyes of understanding are opening. We perceive that our Adversary has but a short time until he must be bound for a thousand years, that the Messiah's Kingdom must preach that all the families of the earth may be blessed through the Seed of Abraham. Finally, at the close of that reign of right coussess, the Scriptures declare that Satan shall be destroyed. The Church is the Body of Christ, of Messiah. Hence the Apostle's words of our text apply to the Church in glory—"The god of peace shall bruise Satan under your foot shortly."

Mrs. Terrell Speaking Before Conference Tells of the Patriotism of Colored Women. At the conference called to consider the question of "The Evils of Papyrism," build last week in the Charitots building, one of the powerful speakers was Mary Church Tortell of Washington. Mrs. Terrell made a vigorous defense of the colored women, and told how interested they were in the advancement of their race. Among other things she said. The attention of colored women is being called to the alarming rapidity with which the race is losing ground in the world of labor, a fact which is patent to all who read and observe the signs of the times. When those who cannot be employed colored people, but refuse to do so, are asked why they have established what is equivalent to a boycotts against them, they inevitably reply that colored people nowadays are neither reliable nor skilled. While there may be occasional truth in the choice of unreliability and lack of skill in the majority of cases, Neuroscians are unable to secure employment because of the cruel prejudice against them in the United States. To stem this title of popular disfavor is the desire of a very colored woman who has the interest of her race at heart. Because of being biased, the constrict lesion of the brain which degrade and dislaborate their race they intend to agitate with such force of logic and intensity of soul that those who handle and oppress them will either be converted to righteousness and justice, or be shamed to violate openly and disgrace both the foliage principles upon which the government was founded and the golden rule.

ADVERTISE IN THE AGE MUSIC AND THE STAGE EDITED BY LESTER A. WALTON. THEATRICAL COMMENT LAST Sunday evening Bert A. Williams and J. Rosamond Johnson appeared before the members of the Criterion Club, 683 Fifth avenue, Mr. Williams entertaining in songs, while Mr. Johnson acted as accompanist at the piano. Their joint appearance has caused the circulation of a rumor that they will be seen together in vaudeville at some future date—a report which is misleading and absolutely erroneous. The two well-known artists have no intentions whatsoever of forming a partnership. It is hardly likely that Bert Williams will ever join forces with any other performer. He has already signed contracts to appear with the Follies of 1911, which will open on the New York Roof about June. The Follies of 1910, in which he is now playing, will close in Chicago about April-Oct. Furthermore, the noted comedian is already negotiating to fill a long engagement at the Palace Theatre, London, two years hence. J. Rosamond Johnson was seen with Bert Williams last Sunday evening because the latter found it difficult to get a piano accompanist to his liking, and Mr. Johnson voluntarily offered his services, which favor was gladly accepted by the big comedian. Johnson and Rogere Form Vaudeville Team. A new vaudeville team is soon to appear in the theatrical world, however. J. Rosamond Johnson and Alex. Rogers will make their debut as partners over the big time within a few weeks in a sketch entitled "Five Dollars," under the direction of M. S. Bentham. Overtures have been made J. Rosamond Johnson to do a single turn over the two-a-day during the illness of his partner, Bob Cole, but he has never seen the advisability of taking such a step. Several weeks ago he and Alex. Rogers entered into an agreement to jointly appear in vaudeville, and they set to work to write a suitable vehicle. Alex. Rogers writing the dialogue and J. Rosamond Johnson composing the music. "Five Dollars" is a sketch brimful of bright lines and catchy music and should score over the United Circuit. Both performers are well known in the "World of Make Believers," one ranking high as librettist and the other as a composer. Both have had no little experience as actors. Millen and Lyle at Hammerstein's For a good many years McIntyre and Heath have enjoyed distinction of amusing theatregoers as black-face comedians in sketches containing dialogue only. They have never been associated with singing and dancing. In Miller and Lyle, who are playing this week at Hammerstein's Victoria Theatre, McIntyre and Heath have two young rivals who are bound to share honors with them as talking comedians in the future. In fact, if a fair criticism of the work of both teams was made the old-timers would suffer by comparison. There are but few low comedians in the business who are capable of making good without resorting to singing or dancing. The majority usually make more of a reputation as singers and dancers than they do as actresses of lines. Miller and Lyle do not warble a note while on the stage, and make no pretense at dancing. For more than ten minutes they provoke laughter by producing a line of talk which bristles with wit and humor and bears the brand of originality. Aside from their verbal saliilles they chose by giving an acrobatic boxing exhibition which is very funny and is one of the best things in the act. At Tuesday afternoon's performance they took four bows. Then they showed a bit of indiscretion by appearing again, and making their exit by Lyle pulling a cleaver out of his pocket and running Miller off the stage. This piece of work does not strengthen the skirt and is not a laugh-maker. Ending in a "blaze of glory" they can consistently and profitably eliminate the "cleaver play" Their Success Demonstrates Two Things. Miller and Lyle's success at Hammerstein's demonstrates two things. First, that the managers who claim that the public will not stand for a colored act unless there is some singing and dancing, do not know what they are talking about. The Hammerstein patrons well know the racial identity of these two young men, for they are billed—"Miller and Lyle, colored comedians." Yet they have given them spontaneous and hearty applause throughout the week. Their appearance at Hammerstein's has also proven that nowadays the success of a vaudevillian depends to a great extent on the material used to exploit his talents. No longer can performers win the plaudits of the public by wearing a funny up- and relying on a ludicrous appearance to get applause. As with the legitimate actor who must have a good play, so it is with the vaudevillian. He must have a well-written sketch. This is Miller and Lyle's success. It is a pity that they cannot legally protect their skirt, for I expect to see a pocket edition of their act, dialogue used almost line for line, up at the Crescent Theatre or some other house before many weeks. Two Talented Young Playwrights. Miller and Lyle are two young playrights who first attracted public attention during the halcyon days of the Pekin Stock Company, when they wrote several of the company's most successful musical shows. Coming to New York with the stock company several summers ago, they were engaged to rewrite the "Oyster Man," in which Ernest Hogan appeared for a short engagement. The book had been written wal Held, but was unsatisfactory to Ernest Hogan, and the colored writers rewrite the piece. Two years ago they made their debut as comedians in Chicago, and after playing the small time were put on the larger circuits. They were brought East last August and opened in Yonkers, which is known as a try-out house for the United Booking Office. They evidently came up to expectations, as they have been booked for thirty-three weeks. They are third on the bill at Hammersstein's, which is "going some" for a team that has never played in New York before. THE FIRST WORLD WAR MILLER AND LYLE Miller and Lyle are intelligent young men who are sure to succeed in the theatrical world. They have no desire to be matinee idols, are not mashers and have tact enough to successfully deal with stage hands who are prejudiced on account of color. They realize that in the contest for popularity they must "carry weight," but have sense enough to know that merit spells success, regardless of color I expect great things of them in the future.

Tutt Whitney announces that he has made a "find" in the person of Mme. E. C. Bruce of Muskogee, Okla. Mme. Bruce is the possessor of a voice of great range and volume, flexible and sweet in tone. It is likened in some respects to that of Black Pattl. While Mme. Bruce is lacking in that flash which only experience can bring, she is superbless a great singer. She made her debut with the Southern Smart Set in Birmingham, Ala., this week MY FRIEND FROM DIXIE CO. The My Friend From Dixie Company, headed by J Leubrie Hill, did a good business at the Grand Opera House, Boston, last week, and this new theatrical organization continues to make a favorable impression. The critics of Boston thought well of the show, judging by their criticism. The following is from the Boston Journal: If you were at the grand opera House last evening your side certainly ought to ache this morning for any body that saw and did not really hear them solves sick over the first performance of My Friend from little must be a person that hates himself. It is one of the most elaborate must be a person that has appeared here, and backed up by a whole company of store headed by J Leubrie Hill the author and composer of the piece and W. H. Robinson the slick and mock comedian, it certainly upholds its reputation. Many new songs were introduced, the most popular being That Real Coon Hog, which was sung by Hollis see Candice and Honey Honey. BLACK PATTI COMPANY. For ten days we have been phying the winter resorts of Florida, our audiences being composed mostly of northern tourists. Business continues brisk Mme. Bissieretta Jones (Black Patt) easily ranks as a star with gry of the north, the north, and the R. R. O. sign is often seen. Members of the company, by visiting ostrich and alligator farms, orange and grape fruit groves and fishing in this THE NEW YORK AGL. 11.URSDAY. FEBRUARY 2. 19.1. tropical climate, are having an enjoyable time and will leave with regrets. Arthur Coates caught a large string of fish at Tampa, Fla., but told us of one that got away? Nellie Cisco was called to New York from St. Petersburg, Fla., by the death of her mother, on January 20. She also lost her sister last October, and is now without relatives. All the memories of the company, by expressions of sympathy and lending financial aid, showed their good will and the esteem in which they held her. Miss Cisco was given a hearty welcome when she returned. Jolly John Jarkins is setting a pace that will be hard for any comedian to follow, and when we strike the big time soon all he asks is "fair field and no favor," as his reputation is made in the South. John, like Alexander the Great, weeps for new fields to conquer. Annie Pearl receives excellent notices from the press as leading soubrette and the rendition of her songs—"Honey-Boy" and "Bandy." The roster of the company: Mme. Siasieretta Jones (Black Patt)), Jennie Pearl Jarkins, Ruby Taylor, Estelle Cash, Nellie Closk, Jennie Day, Alice Ramsey, Lella B. Mitchell, Patricia Ordway, Casca Jackson, Jolly John Larkins, N. Augustus Hall, Al F. Wattz, Frank Sutton, John L. Grant, Gli Bledseaux, Luke N. Scott, Arthur Coates, Michael Robinson and James H. Gray. GEORGIA TROUBADOURS. We are still in Missouri and, despite the fact that the weather continues bad and shows are closing around us every day, the Georgia Troubadours continue to do good business. Wm. McCabe, manager of the Georgia Troubadours and this entire company wish to extend their heart-felt sympathy to Mrs. Aida Overton Walker, Mrs. Meyers and Bert A. Williams in their sad bereavement. Speaking about the colored profession, one would think that we are undergoing enought trials without having some one else to help us. We have reference to the incident that occurred at the Howard Theatre a few weeks ago. The incident at the Howard Theater recalls something which goes to show why we should be particular in the selection of performers. We were booked in a certain town not long ago for a two-day stand. When the curtain went up the first night we noticed that the colored attendance was very light. Owing to the fact that there was something like a colored population of five hundred people in the town, we thought it strange that we should have such a light colored attendance. Includes a day brought out the information that the colored minister had notified his congregation that any one attending "that silinful minstrel show" would have their names struck from the church books. If we had anything in our show that would have given any one the slightest chance for saying such a thing, the first night's crowd would have had a chance to verify what the minister had said. As it was, the small crowd we had the first night (both white and colored) got busy and advertised the merits of the company. The consequence were on the first night's receipts, and even the minister was there seated in the front row; and we dare say he enjoyed the performance as much as any one. Right there we took the opportunity to make a curtain speech for the benefit of the minister, and explained to him that people on the stage were not of the lower type, as he had thought, but that we had moral scruples as well as any one. We also showed him where we were doing as much good for the race as some of the people who sit in the front row, and who have never fought the battle face to face with the enemy as we. Before we left, Wm. McCabe made arrangements for a return date in February. BIG BENEFIT AT CRESCENT On Wednesday, February 8, a big benefit will be given at the Crescent Theatre for the Colored Vaudeville Benvolent Association, and a vaudeville bill of unusual merit will be presented. There will be a matinee and an evening performance. Twenty-five cents for general admission and 50 cents for boxes will be charged in the afternoon, and 50 cents general admission and $1 for box seats in the evening. Among the acts to appear will be John Rucker, Cook and Stevens and Clermonto and Miner. CRESCENT THEATRE With Hodges and Launchmere and the McCarvers as principal attractions, the patrons of the Crescent Theatre were treated to a strong bill this first three days of this week. Hodges and Launchmere have one of the oldest colored acts in the business and were playing over the large circuits may years before the public became affected by the moving picture shows they have always done something different from other colored performers, it being hard to copy their act. Their cat number and their talk and antics while on an imaginary ship are deserving of praise. The McCarvers have an act that should eventually land on the big time. McCarver is a lively gent whose principal asset is his legs, and he makes them sit up and take notice with his dancing. Miss McCarver, while pleasing to gaze upon, wins her audience laughs and joy. She is the possessor of a good voice. The team can well afford to get a new song for their pulsh. BARRETT'8 THEATORIUM St Louis' leading colored theatre, Barrett's Theatarium, is located at 3611 Pine street. The house is owned and managed by Richard D Barrott. The building is a beautiful two-story fireproof structure, 26x150 feet, and can seat six hundred persons. The executive staff consists of the following Richard D. Barrett, sole owner and manager; Florence Freestone, cashier; Samuel Gardner, director, amusements; Monroe Tabor, large amusements; and Vivienne Vorliving representative; Leroy Martin, electrician and operator; William Bailey, doorman, Harry Fontroy, master of properties; Artie Mathws, musical director; Winton Williams, chorus director; William Webster, mag- tar of repaire; Lawrence Holma, house officer; Frank Robinson, chief usher; Albert Jackson, usher; Dr. McClelland, house physician; Artie Mathews, pianist; Milton Vasser, violinist; James King, drums. Barrett has succeeded in interesting the public sufficiently to be able to maintain a stock company of ten people which changes its shows semi-weekly. "QYPSY'S REVENGE" PRESENTED. "Gypsy's Revenge," an operetta written and staged by Anna M. Redgeley, was creditably presented at Palm Garden, brooklyn, Wednesday, evening before an appreciative audience. In the cast of characters were A. Hugo Williams, Edna Redgeley, William Madden, Charlotte Murrill, Mabel Webater, Edna L. Scottron and Gladys F. Moore. The affair was given under the management of William Russell Johnson. WASHINGTON CONSERVATORY OF MUSIC The opening recital of the winter term of the Washington Conservatory of Music, Washington, D. C., was well attended and appreciated by all. The program was exceptionally attractive and well rendered. Percy Foster, of the Foster Music Company, well known as the author of the book introduced by Louis Gregory, the financial secretary of the conservatory. The faculty and students were inspired by his address and appreciated his high commendation of the work, which he has watched since its foundation. He stated that he had visited the leading conservatories of the country, and he was impressed that if he had closed his eyes he could not have told the difference. He paid a high compliment to Mrs. Marshall, the president, and commented upon the immense reflex benefit which the community derived from her efforts to attain the consummation of her high ideals. The department of vocal expression was creditably represented by Mrs. Emma Lee Williams of the senior class. The selections played by Misses Ruth Grimshay, Calestine Lott and Elsie Brown received special applause. THEATRICAL JOTTINGS Robinson and Besetta are at the Savoy Theatre.

Walton. After the dinner, several selections were rendered several selections on the piano and John Rucker amused in songs. IN THE WORLD OF SPORT Last Friday evening the Jersey City A C basketball team lost its first game of the season to the fast Alpha five on its home court in Arlington Hall, by the score of 37 to 20. It was one of the fastest and most exciting games witnessed in some time, and the result was in doubt until the second half was well started. Buoyed up with the confidence of having a clean record, a large friendly crowd, and also the advantage of playing on their own court, the Jersey boys fairly swept the Alphas off their feet when the game started, and in a few minutes had scored four goals, before the New Yorkers could get a point. But very soon the visitors "got together," and in as many minutes tied the score. The game continued on even terms until a few minutes before the half ended, then Jersey forged ahead again and when the whistle blew the score was Jersey City, 14, Alpain, 12. Both teams took advantage of the intermission to refresh themselves and prepare for the final. The Alpha quint was the more aggressive and played rings around the Jersey five, outclassing them in every department of the game. So well did the New York guards cover up and the forwards shoot, that they scored 17 points before the home team scored a point on a foul. Not for a minute did the Alphas slow up, and although several substitutes were sent in to stem the tide Jersey City was unable to change matters. The Alpha team steadily and consistently forged ahead in some of the most brilliant team work shown this season. The Alpha next game will be with the fast St. Christopher (Tob) on Monday evening, February 14, at Manhattan Casino All Stars Make Statement Several false reports have been circulated about the big basketball match which will positively take place Monday evening. February 13, at the 71st Regiment Armory, between the crack quint representing the 10th Cavalry and the New York All Stars I write this to ask the public not to be misled by these rumors. The game will be played as scheduled, and there will be dancing after the match until later after midnight. At the match on Friday evening, ladies connected with Hope Day Nursery, Mrs. Francis, president, and Mrs. Dorsay, chairman of the committee, including Mrs. Charles W. Anderson and Mrs. G. Honderson, authorized the All Stars to make a public statement that the Hope Day Nursery will be one of the charitable institutions financially benefited by the game and dance.

THAT BUFFALO TOWN Colored Man Holding Down Good Jobs To Disturb the Peace. Fight It Out! Regular Correspondence of the AOR Buffalo, N. Y., February 1.—The citizens of Buffalo look with pride upon the men who are employed as clerks in the various Government departments. Nelson S. Fairbush, who comes from one of Buffalo's oldest and most respected families, has held a position of honor and trust for over 27 years. Mr Fairbush was first employed with the young man as an art student and then young man as expert stenographer and it was openly boasted that for many years he held the champion record for speed as a typewriter. So well did Mr Fairbush acquit himself that he was sought after and appointed conditional postmaster and no change of administration affected Mr Fairbush, for he was retained from one postmaster to the next, and so when the Hon Fred Griner was appointed postmaster of Buffalo Mr Fairbush was appointed as postmaster and no change of position he now holds. In addition to this work for years Mr Fairbush has been chairmaster of St. Phillip's Church and at the annual sucerfest held in the large white Episcopal church. Mr Fairbush is also for more trained voices always have a pronounced place. Mr Fairbush also belongs to several secret organizations, occupying position of secretary and treasurer. He is also an artist of more than passing notice. His water color and portrait portraits have been highly prized by many high-class artists. Every year thousands of dollars of goods are seized by the Custom House. As Buffalo is so near the Canadian boundary that a great many people snuggle diamonds and other dutiful goods into this country. It has doubtless been a source of annoyance to some and surprise to many of the many hundreds of people who are forced to visit the museum of the moment inspector to see a colored man in the office to whom they must tell their troubles before they can see the chief official. This man is Richard H. Jolley, who has held the position ever since he was a student. Mr Jolley is an expert in judging valuable stones and does not have to refer to any books or records to know what is or what is not taxable. Mr Jolley is also interested in the building of a museum. A. He Jolley, full of race pride and sometimes he appears a little vexed because our young men do not measure up to the standard he and all of us would like to see. The attain Mr Jolley with others is a great achievement in the mentions of a high classical nature to obtain funds for the establishing of the Y. M. C. A. and it is hoped that Buffalo will soon have a well equipped museum of a lifetime young men of color may find a place in the others find in the general Y. M. C. A. The late George Dover, and Ben Haley were the first young men to enter the post office as letter carrier. We have only one carrier now, Theo Morris, who has been forced about two years. Hermann Morris clerk in the office, and received his appointment wholly upon his efficiency. Mr. Morris is the leading bartonite singer of St. Phillip's choir and has received several flattering offers to travel with matrical and other concert companies. Harry Peterson came here ten years ago from college and received a position with the Filkina' Pottery Co., occupying the unique position of buyer and seller in the petroleum industry. Mr. Peterson later decided that he would enter the railway postal service and was appointed, being the only coloured man who has ever been appointed from Buffalo. Several young men of the company from other divisions but Mr. Peterson alone represents the Buffalo division. It is very interesting to note the career of Chester Jackson, a young man who by close application to his work has been appointed to one of the New York Central freight department of the New York Central freight department. Young Jackson entered their employ as office boy, was never absent or late. Of pleasing address he was rapidly promoted and instituted several reforms in the savvy business accounting accounts. Mr. Jackson has traveled quite extensively for the company. Thomas Payne for thirty-two years has held a clerical position with the Great Pierce Medical institute. This world renowned institution is more recognized than others. Here daily are received thousands of patients and patients are treated through correspondence. The responsibility of the filing of this enormous correspondence rests upon Mr. Payne, as cases once diagnosed and which must be referred to and again are at his ready command. Herbert Dowling, another Huffman boy, graduate of Maston Park high school, a good electrician, studied and became proficient in chemistry, patiented a silver polish and some toilet with the proper laboratory dissection and manufacture of the same. Mr Dowling is not only milk inspector, but also a health inspector with certificate from the State Health Department at the same commendable salary. He comes from a family of art and archerate families, being grand and William Leslie, well known by former Buffaloanians.

Heath, Chief of the Bureau of Foods and Drugs, was in the midst of his explanation why he present milk inspection was poor, when Robert Gabbe, of Pembroke, created a sensation by spring to his feet, crying a protest against a colored inspector in the employ of the department as there was reason why you have a colored man on the job!" he asked. The statement was greeted with a round of applause, but after Dr. Heath had told of the man's education, of his milestone spake highly of the colored team and been accepted in the best of families and after praising his work as an inspector stated that he would stick by the man. A number of the milestone spake highly of the colored team and be stand for fair play, which was heartily endorsed. Hair Dressers and Barbers. Greenberg's Ladies' Hair Dressing Pa.

Thompson began an action against the new Academy Theatre for $500 damages for the alleged drawing of a knife that he claims that on the afternoon of June 7 he bought a ground floor ticket to the theatre, but when he presented it to the man at the door he was instructed to go up into the balcony to see the show. This Mr. Thompson refused to do and the suit followed. The action is brought under the civil rights laws of the United States, and the rights, accommodations, facilities and privileges in public places. At the Christian Culture Congress Sunday, January 29, Mr Thompson will be present and an appeal will be made to the citizens to help sustain Mr Thompson's mission, that it is much easier to hold the ground we have than to lose it and try to regain the same. A few years ago one Rebstock, manager of a summer resort, refused our boys and girls admission to the dance hall. Mrs. Hillman and her husband, him and compelled him to open the hall to our boys and girls. Three years ago an automobile sight-seeing company refused to allow colored people to ride. Again Mrs Talbert came to the front, assisted by William H. Hillman, and ordered him to the chief of police, who ordered the company to either permit colored citizens to ride or to take their vehicles off the streets. Last spring the Vendome Theatre, a moving picture show, tried and did force colored people to ride. Mr Thompson, the matter up with Hon. Louis P. Fruhrman, mayor, sent for the manager and told him that as mayor of the city he would not permit him to discriminate against the colored citizens and ordered him to discontinue the zenzens must rise up with one voice and help Mr Thompson win this suit.

He not only sent his telegram of condolence, but also came to deliver to the western people what was in his heart concerning the intimate relationship he shared with himself and the deceased. It was a pathetic to hear Doctor Washington tell of the very great friendship that existed not only between himself and the Bishop, but also between the entire community of teachers alike, who mourn yth the western people the loss of so aile a leader. Beginning with a quotation found in John, "Though a man die, yet shall he live." Doctor Washington proclaimed that he was a York of Bishop Abram Grant would prosper more than now. In closing, after speaking of the great impression the life of Bishop Grant had made upon him because of his struggle with the Negro, he told the Bishop said, "In the death of Bishop Grant the Negro race has lost a great an good man, one who was loved by all the people, he always advocated everything that was right, he led a large number of the white Negroes but a large number of the white race will mourn his loss."

As Doctor B.F. Watson sang the last verse of his solo, Bishop Watson. Copper coated the bishop's song in the chorus. So soon as he began to sing this soul-stirring song, the entire audience fell to singing. More verses would have been too much, and at the end of the choir, Watson sang the words of the song, "Home at Last," echoed through the church, and reverent order reigned again. Nothing but the entire elimination of all outward emotional feeling prevented a more visible and perhaps a more exhibition of sorrow upon this occasion.
