CONFERENCE ON NEGRO WAITERS Welfare of "Knights of the Tray" Discussed in Atlantic City KEYNOTE--"EFFICIENCY" Headwaiters Inspired by Advice Given by Booker T. Washington at Notable Banquet EDUCATOR ENTERTAINED Colored Citizens Give Tenkegaan Great Ovation - Lectures to Mixed Audience at High School Auditorium. (By Aaz Staff Correspondent.) Atlantic City, N J, April 18—Dr Booker T Washington was the guest of the colored citizens of Atlantic City last Friday evening at a banquet given in his honor at Fitzgerald's Restaurant. The banquet was an elaborate affair in every particular, many appetizing dishes were served, and numerous toasts were made during the evening eulogizing the noted guest and his work. Yet it would not be inconsistent to refer to the occasion as a conference rather than a banquet, as matters were discussed around the festal board which will have an important bearing on the future welfare of the colored matters and other members of the race closely associated with hotel life in Atlantic City and throughout the country. The Tuskegeean was entertained under the auspices of the Negro Business League of Atlantic City. In attendance were the prominent business and professional men of that place. The presence of the leading colored headwaiters of the famous resort, who took an active part in the conference, was significant. In his talk Dr. Washington sounded the keynote when he advised the members of the league to direct its energies toward making the colored COUNSELLOR ISAAC H. NUTTER An Active Member of the Negro Business League of Atlantic City waters more efficient and up to date in order that they might successfully compete with the white waiters who come from abroad and secure employment in many of the principal hotels of this country, displacing colored waiters. The educator declared that an effort should be made to bring about a condition wherein the colored water would demonstrate that he was not only as good as the white waiter, but a better workman than his white competitor, and that he would not secure work from a standpoint of sympathy, but because he had created a big demand for his services. Professional People Depend on Masses. 17 waiters present who are members of the lague and deeply interested in the new movement were George H Emory, headwaiter of Haddon Hall, and toastmaster of the evening. Orange Creswell, of the Hotel Traymore; Washington T Jones, of the Seaside Hotel, Joseph McQuinn, of the Brighton Hotel, and Gardner Pinkett, of the Hotel Dennis. Leading Headwaters Enthusiastic. The hotels represented by these leading headwaiters and others in attendance at the Washington banquet last Friday evening are considered the leading hostelries in Atlantic City, and are conducted by white men who have for years shown a decided preference for colored help. They recently stated to several members of the league that it was their intentions to hire colored waiters as long as the men were efficient, clean in their personal appearance and reliable. One speaker at the banquet referred to last season when a large number of colored waiters were dismissed and either white waiters or colored waitresses were employed to take their places. Charles Wagner, proprietor of the Lorraine Hotel, and president of the Hotel Men's Association, was quoted as having said that the white hotel owners colored waiters, but that several of the hotels changed help last season because their colored waiters did not give satisfaction, many of them staying up late to make time and properly attend to their business when needed. In the case of Mr Wagner, he installed colored waitresses at the Lorraine Hotel. Some of the headwaters declared after the banquet that the movement inspired by Dr. Washington is bound to prove more than a local issue, and that it is highly probable that many headwaters throughout the country will cooperate with the various local business leagues with a view to taking the colored 'blood' of the tray, more efficient in the work and more ought after. Atlantic City Gives Negroes Much Employment Martin City is known as the largest pressure resort in America and two thirds of the Negro population is in it up of those who live in the city. It is estimated that during the summer season the leading hotel over $400 million in wages is devoted help. The cared business of professionals men admit that the welfare of the colored citizens depends on the caretakers secured by Negroes in the city and that they regard the success of the black people as a vital issue. Among the speakers at the banquet were The Rev J. P. Gregory, Dr L B Ferry, Dr A L Martin, J C Aubrey Rey H P Anderson, Dr James F Bourne F Thomas Fortune Counsellor Isaac H Nutter and Dr P L Hawkins Among those present were Dr Booker T Washington, Emmett J Scott, T Thomas Fortune, J C Asbury, Iester A Walton, N G Nutter, Counsellor Isaac H Nutter, James A Lightfoot, George H Walls, G T Pinkett, W F Cozart, William C McCord, J B Ford, O D Creswell, A F Davidson, A F Edwards, Dr P L Hawkins, George H Emory, George L. Johnson, S Puleston, Dr E B Terry, Dr James F Bourne, Dr Charles I Wrest, Justice William R Page, B G Fitzgerald, R Burwell, Constable E W Bailey, Rev A L Martin, T S Boone, Rev J P Gregory, Howard Div, Rev H P Anderson and Rev F H Butler Before the banquet Dr Washington addressed a large audience composed of both races at the High School Auditorium on The Industrial and Educational Progress of the Negro. The speaker was at his best and was cheered and applauded time and time again by his attentive and enthusiastic auditors. The lecture was conducted under the direction of the Board of Education of Atlantic City Members of School Board Meet Tuskegee. Dr Washington was escorted to the High School building by a delegation of Negro citizens, where he was met by the members of the board, composed of Samuel H Kelley, Elwood S Bartlett, Silas R Morse, (continued on Page 9) $201,753.26 RAISED IN DOLLAR MONEY Rev.

EASTER AT ATLANTIC CITY Thousands Participated in Boardwalk Parade Despite Cold Weather—Many New Styles on Exhibition—Hotels and Cottages Created as Usual— Some of Those Present. Special to THE NEW YORK AGE. Atlantic City, N. J., April 21— Energetic breezes and a frigid atmosphere worked harmoniously together last Sunday, but the combination was not strong enough to keep Dame Fashion and her many subjects from participating in the annual Easter promenade on the Boardwalk. Old Sol shone forth heartedly, and caused some to believe that he was more in league with the breezes and icy atmosphere than with Dame Fashion, but thousands and thousands of visitors "did the boardwalk just the same Had the weather been warmer more spring styles would have been in evidence, as some of the promenaders were reluctant about appearing in warm-weather attire when weather conditions warranted the wearing of furs and heavy clothing. Nevertheless, the boardwalk was crowded, and it is estimated that more people traversed the promenade, which is one hundred feet wide and two miles long, than on previous occasions. Although the willow plumes and ostrich feathers had a rather trying time with the strenuous wind, many of the female paraders were bent on exhibiting their Easter costumes. The boat-shaped turban, which is worn well back on the head, attracted considerable attention. The brim is turned up on both sides and is worn across the head. The female contingent also wore tailor-made suits with short coats and shirts also suggestive of brevity. MANY ATTEND BALL Over 2,500 Persons Make Merry at Southern League's Entertainment—Good Music and Good Order Prevailed President Vince Kotter and Executive Chairman Edward E. Lee were looking mighty kings long about 1 A M Tuesday morning when the annual ball of the Southern League was just blooming out and between 2,500 and 3,000 people were trying to move about Grand Central Palace. It was hardly anything else but a try "Balls may come and balls may go" said Walter Boad but the Southern League happens along about this time every year and holds a big parlor social where the southern people can get together and talk over old times in Culpepper, Duwidie old Chatham in Georgia and down in Calmy. Then there are the children, the thousands of them that have grown up typical New Yorkers—it is a good thing to have them know each other, and get acquainted with the names of the old places in Dixie where their parents first heard of liberty and started his way to see it. Walter P Craig's orchestra helped the young people get acquainted and had to work in double quick time to keep up with them. A list of those who were present would fill every page of Ting Ack. The boxes were filled, the dining room was crowded and the sides were jammed from midnight to daybreak. Good order prevailed, and only one leaguer got happy. He did nothing more than to attempt to sing "Old Black Joe." He had Bis way. THOUSANDS CELEBRATE DAY Ministers Eloquently Deliver Appropriate Sermons and Special Music is rendered at Each Service. Easter Sunday was an ideal day in New York, and the churches of the city that always take on new life this season, celebrated the Resurrection not only in fitting manner but with a solemnity that has seldom marked the observance of the day. There was not a church in the city that was not filled at each service, and not a church that had not made especial preparation for the day's worship. Special music marked each service, but the preachers had also prepared appropriate sermons, and many of them were filled with striking phrases. St. Mark's church, of which the Rev Dr W. H. Brooks is pastor, was packed both morning and evening, and Dr. Brooks delivered eloquent sermons at both services. His congregation was still happy over his return to the great Fifty-third Street church. In the afternoon, the Lyceum had charge of the services, Luther H. Smith presiding. The edifice simply could not accommodate the crowd. More than a thousand people heard Roscoe Conkling Simmons deliver the Easter oration. In addition to Mr Simmons' oration, there was a musical program of extraordinary merit. Many of the oldest members of the church and lyceum said it was the finest day in the history of the lyceum. Mother Zion church, of which Rev R. M Bolden is pastor, attracted large crowds at each service, and Rev Bolden delivered impressive sermons. The decorations were very beautifully arranged. At Abyssinian Baptist church, Dr. A. Clayton Powell occupied the pulpit at both services, and a great throng of people heard him. Under the direction of choirmaster Page a musical program of Abyssinian churches was carried out in Salem Church, in West 133d street, which was thrown open only three weeks ago was crowded at both the morning and evening service. Rev Cullen preached in the morning and the choir gave a special program in the evening At St Phillips church it was not possi-ble to get in the doors of the church offer 10 at the morning service The rector, Roy Hutchens, C Bishop, preached and the music was up to the steward of Mr Bim's programs. For the morning service, while Mr Chet was well filled at the morning service Roy Mr Tafferoy of Phila dipin was delivering the service. He preached in the evening. At the morning service the offer on a record crowd was at and the program was ex- tensive. Many came over to the same service at Uni- Furniture was simply able to attend the service at H.S. preached to both services. Bobald A M.F. church in West Street was crowded all day. Dr Runsom devel- ed the Easter service at the steward in the evening. In the front people be pr Father Burke at St. Benedict's The house of Gregory is called St. John the Apostle at the St. John's mass in the general Holy Communion, at the 11th St. Solenn Mass at the Vespers service at 8 o'clock in the evening. The service at the Solenn Mass was V. Rev. John E. Burke, former pastor of the church and now the head of the Bureau of Mission Work in the South. Rev. Thos J. Lynch of the Board for Reform Work was deacon, and Rev. O. Mahony, of St. Benedict's church was deacon. Rev. Thos M. O'Keefe pastor, preached on the feast of the day, taking for his text the words of St. Paul's 1st Epistle to the Corinthians, chapter 15. "And if Christ be not risen from the dead, then is our preaching vain, and your faith is vain." But now Christ hath risen from the dead." He showed this was the foundation stone of the Christian religion, and that the church built on this must speak with authority and be infallible and in destructable. At the Vespers Father O'Mahony preached on the Influence of the digma of the Resurrection" Belief, he said, in the resurrection of Christ was the root of the moral regeneration of the world, which two thousand years ago was fearfully corrupt. On every recurring Easter Sunday, millions and millions of Catholics all the world over have their spiritual resurrection from the death of sin through the great sacrament of confession. The choir sang a beautiful mass in the morning and a most artistic vespers in the evening. The altar circle had the sanctuary decorated with palms and lilies and roses so that it presented a scene of wonderful beauty Christ Compared to the Lily. At the Abyssinian Baptist church the Rev A Clayton Powell spoke to a large congregation, taking his text from the Song of Solomon, 11th chapter and first verse—"I am the lily of the valley" Dr. Powell said in part Christ is known by many names and represented after many figures. You cannot read the Bible through without being convinced that the inspired writers have exhausted all that is beautiful, all that is great, all that is sublime, all that is pure, in the material universe, trying to describe the matchless and indescribable person and character of Jesus. He is called the Lion of Judah, the Lamb of God, the Shiloh of Israel, the Bright and Morning Star, the Son of Righteousness, the True Vine and the Rose of Sharqn. Here He is represented under the imagery of the Lily of the Valleya. While all of these names by which Jesus is known are full of meaning—it may be because of my passionate fondness for flowers—but it does seem to me that no figure under which He (Continued on Page 3) THIRGELD GIVES HIS VERSION Head of Howard Says He Was Justified in Dismissing Tutore—Indications Are That an Effort Will Be Made to Have Him Resign—Many Rumors Afloat. Special to The New York Ann. Washington, D. C., April 19.—It is apparent from the general tenor of the criticism now being heaped upon the present administrative head of Howard University, precipitated by his action in the Gregory and Washington case, that an effort to have him resign will crystallize at an early date. A careful and exhaustive inquiry into the situation leaves small room to doubt that all interested colored persons would like to see a Negro at the head of the noted institution. The consummation of this purpose is looked forward to with caution and apparently with the knowledge that it means a tremendously hard finish fight. No colored candidate has been proposed for the presidency of the university as yet nor does the local field offer any strong candidates. There is one aspect of the case which cannot be denied. The various attacks upon the university administration because of the unpopularity of the dismissal of the tutors there has revealed that Dr. Thirkield has the backing of his deans and of the executive committee of the institution and that they are pledged to support him to the last ditch. His explanation of the dismissal of the tutors is said to be at least plausible. After seeing several articles published in THE AGE relative to the case Dr. Thirkield expressed his belief that this paper was making every effort to handle the matter with fairness and intelligence and to increase the version of the now famous case. His explanation led to form a number of facts in what he considered absolute justification of all he has done in the matter. He claims that the tutors instructed academy students and that they were given lodging with these students as preceptors. He also says that there are cases on record of a few college and academy students who have been dismissed from Howard for drinking intoxicating liquors. The punishment has always been dismissal and it has been especially severe in cases involving academy discipline. This is claimed the tutors were supposed to know Against Violating Rules and Traditions. The Thirkeld further controls at if the students had been given a reprimand, however severe, it would have been possible immediately after if all students on the academy or college were violate the code and treatment, and an investigator with the knwledge of the administrative discipline at W. and come under in more severe penalty than a reprimand. It is believed that next week will show several new lines of attack on Dr. Thirkeld, who is termed his administration of tyrannies. Several well known congressmen have promised to see that the present administrative system at Howard University is investigated. Another line of attack is that on the application which of successful would not only hurt the university, but would most certainly compel Dr. Thirkeld's resignation because his usefulness at the college would be practically destroyed. The third, and perhaps the weakest line of attack on the president, is the claim that he is endeavoring to get control of a part of the colored school system because the new colored normal school and the new colored high school are to be built within a stone's throw of the Howard University campus. APPEAR FOR DEPOSITORS. Special to TWN New York Am. Washington, D.C., April 18 - Efforts to secure relief from Congress for the depositors of the defunct Freedmen's Savings and Trust Company which have been made at nearly every session of Congress since 1867, were received last week when a delegation of Negroes called upon Speaker Champ Clark and headed by Rev James L. White, who acted as spokesman for the party, spoke in the interest of the bill to reimburse the depositors of the defunct bank, and a bill to establish a home for aged and infirm colored persons and working girls. At the conclusion of the conference Speaker Clark promised the delegation that he would refer their petition to the proper committee, and said he was very much interested in the proposed legislation. MAKES HIGHEST AVERAGE Special to The New York Am St Paul, Minn. April 19-James P. Murphy of the mailing division in the St Paul Post Office, in a recent test examination made the highest general average ever established by a government employee in the Northwest. The Negro's average was 99.75 per cent. Has Largest Circulation PRICE, 51CENTS 70 YEARS OLD; WINS 2 MEDALS Mrs. Martha Harmon Honored by New York Board of Education RECORD AN UNUSUAL ONE Aged Pupil Has Not Missed Night School an Evening During the Past Four Years. CAME LATE ONLY ONCE Although School is Located Over a Mile From Her Home She Has Never Hidden Preferring to Walk. Up in Harlem the colored residents boast of celebrities galore, but a new one has been added to the list in the person of Mrs. Martha Harmon, 70 years old, who is also the pride of the New York Board of Education, and the principal and teachers of Public Night School No. 157. Despite her advanced years, Mrs. Harmon is now enjoying her school days, and the remarkable record she has made within the past four years has brought her fame. A few evenings ago she was presented with two gold medals which she proudly wears on "state occasions." One of the medals was given MRS MARTHA HARMON 70 Years Old, and the Pride of the New York School Board for attending and the other for ef- ficiency in her studies. Mrs. Harmon is considered an ideal pupil by her teachers. At Public Night School No. 157, the principal and teachers often refer to their 70 year old pupil and her record. For four years she has been attending night school, taking an elementary course. During the four years Mrs. Harmon has never missed an evening and has been late but once. She would not have been tardy the one time had it not been for company who called on her one evening last season, and in the midst of an interesting conversation the aged pupil failed to pay attention to the clock, walking into her class room a few minutes after the teacher had called the roll. Mrs. Harmon resides at 198 West 134th street and Public Night School No. 157 is located at 125th street and Manhattan avenue, yet this woman, 70 years old, has walked to school every evening during the four years, braving the snow, sleet, rain and wind. Not once has she ridden to the school house. The night school term commences in October and ends in April. During the winter months school is held every week day except Friday and Saturday. In order to acquire education, Mrs. Harmon has donned her heavy coat and mittens for four years and wended her wav on foot to school, defying the wintry blasts and treacherous sidewalks. Mrs. Harmon was born in Kentucky seventy years ago, and while young moved to Dayton, Ohio where she spent most of her life. She resided for years just around the corner from Paul Lawrence Dunbar, and remembers when he was quite a lad. Some years ago she moved to New York. She is a widow and has a daughter and a grandson. Mrs. Harmon does not seem to think that she has done anything unusual for a woman of her age, and is not disposed to speak of her enviable record. She says the medals speak for themselves.

Bishop who took for his text these words of the great Apostle Saint Paul in his epistle to the Philippians: "Thanks be to you and with all victory." He emphasised the fact that the resurrection of Christ brought to all believers the assurance of Christ's ever death and thus became a cause for perpetual thanksgiving. After the german came the high celebration of the Holy Communion, with the rector as celebrant in full eucharistic vestments. There were also two early celebrations of the eucharist, at Fraid (1929) followed by morning prayer at 10:30, conducted by the curate, Rev. R. W. Daniel. Special anthems were rendered by the vested male choir, under direction of Cholmaster Bolin, with orchestral accompaniment. Offerings for the day amounted to over $750. This is in addition to some $3000 raised by pledges from the congregation toward furnishing of the new church. Bethel Church.

In the evening the reorganized Junior Choir will make its first appearance. It has been the custom for Bethel A M F Church, Rev R C Ransom, pastor, to hold their anniversary exercises at Palm Garden. The expenses for hall advertising, etc., usually amounted to $200 or more. The pastor and trustees decided this year to hold the overrides in the church, and save this expense. The ninety-first anniversary was therefore celebrated at the church. The pastors of the different churches occupied the pulpit each evening and spoke to splendid audiences. Refreshments were served by the ladies and on Friday evening the celebration closed with a musical and literary program. Notwithstanding the inclement weather, a good sized audience was present. A very tempting supper was served by Mr. and Mrs. H. H. Lammts. The trustees assisted in the service and Mrs James C Thomas acted as treasurer with Mrs Archie Roberts as assistant.

The air was filled with snowflakes, which the hearts of the people were warm with spiritual enthusiasm as they thought of the resurrection of our Savior. An enthralling the church the first thing that attracted the attention of the members and friends were the altar and their decorations.

Saturday, Pt. New York Age. P. Moore, Md., April 19.—The sponsors recently enacted law tending to give the race to certain streets have already been alarmed at the finding of their supposedly perfect nature of the things that causes the contention is the contention that the law is not legally passed, three successive readings in the City Council not made. A little difficulty is that portion which enters a prospective builder of houses an unimproved neighborhood where the houses are to be built or white people and that the same should be advertized by the leading Inspector for the two weeks for the application T question at issue is. Who should p advertise? The advertising thought to give white people to vigorously protest should try to open up a street for people in a white section.

Washington Endorsed—Address by Prominent White Business Man. Regular Correspondence of THE AGE. Huntsville, Ala., April 15—The thirteenth annual session of the Alabama State Teachers Association, which has just closed here, demonstrated beyond a doubt that Dr. Booker T. Washington has the confidence and support of the best element of people in the State of Alabama. A strong endorsement and expression of confidence in the famous educator by R. E. Pattus, wholesale merchant and prominent church worker, a member of the white race, who was delivering address of welcome was stationed at the opening session Wednesday night. Looker Washington as a slave was worth about $400," said Mr. Pettus. As a man and educator, his worth to humanity cannot be estimated. I for one, shall not send one cent of money anywhere to defend a man who would assault a fellow citizen of mine like Booker Washington. Every reference to Booker Washington and the late William H. Council was applied by the audition of about 2,000 people who crowded every available space in the Hippodrome. Several other addresses of welcome were delivered by Roy, William Jones, pastor of Lake Side M. Church, and by S J B Carr, a well known professional man of the city. In responding to the addresses of Wichita, Dr James A. Bray, president of Miled Memorial College, Birmingham road strong-resolutions endorsing Pooker T. Washington and thinking Mr Pottas for his address. In his address Dr Bray declared that the Negro teacher was far in the lead of all professional and business men of Negro race and pointed to the tremendous resiliency resting upon the Negro President Walter S. Buchanan of the Artificial and Mechanical College, who more than any other agent was responsible for the remarkable entertainment given the visitors by the people of Huntsville and the college community, gave the closing address.

Sunday evening a colored boy, who operated an elevator in a New York apartment, and a young white girl, who was also a servant in the house, were killed together by some mishap to the car, which occurred, evidently, while the young man was taking the girl to or from the apartments of her mistress. It was a very sad accident, and we extend sympathy to the parents of both of these young people. We are afraid, however, that the New Orleans Picayune repository of the purity of the "Anglo-Saxon race," and Major Vardaman, the tad-pole that ever bucked the political sea, must grieve the grief of honor stricken below the belt at this case of social equality. We hear the Major now, calling on the red-necks of Poplarville, to rise and resent the shame; and the hot pages of the Picayune we see covered with indignation as hot as fire and as heavy as earth. Why were "this boy" and that "beautiful young girl" riding on an elevator side by side? Curse so wicked an elevator, let the "brave men" of the South rise against that Death that has no respect for the "ruling race" of the world. It were enough for an apostate of the period to sanction "social equality," but it is too much when Death seals the crime. And all that kind of rot. Poor, hungry, unfortunate people of the South. Poor in wisdom and courage; hungry for the light of reason; unfortunate in that they are doomed to walk many years in darkness. ! A HEALTHY SUGGESTION. A bit of engaging philosophy we gather from the dark, sad pages of the Atlanta Independent: If the average Negro leaders could be successfully disposed of, the race would finally advance in wealth and respectability. And so it would. The colored people of Georgia are unanimous in a willingness to dispose of their greatest "average," very average, leader, Ben of Dawson, who, while not seriously interfering with their wealth, is not at all thoughtful of their respectability. Will Ben lead the procession of retirees? The Globe came out with big black headlines the other day purporting to give the news of a Harvard lynching party, in which a colored man had the star part. Why did the Globe do that? It must have known better. It will take a thousand additional Southern students to pull off a lynching at Harvard, and a great change in Massachusetts. And what is more, it isn't any easy thing from his standpoint to lynch a colored man up this way now The news article bearing on recent operations of Nail and Parker in Harlem property, published on the front page of a recent Richmond Reformer and credited to the Yonkers Standard was taken, without credit, by that newspaper from the seventh column of the first page of the financial section of the New York Times for Sunday, March 20, 1911 'According to the Boston Herald's report of the convention of the National Association, etc. etc. etc., the only wave of enthusiasm that swept over the convention occurred when Booker T Washington's name was mentioned. Now that is too much Assisting William Barnes, Jr, in the rehabilitation of the Republican party of New York is that old, tried and true friend, the State Democracy, that is as sure to go wrong at the right time as the March wind is to blow In the list of the great army of Indiana politicians and would be politicians, we see no name of a colored Republican What is the matter with the men over there, don't want office, can't get them, or couldn't fill them? Perhaps. Springfield, Mass, is preparing to celebrate its 275th birthday What is Springfield? Simply the entry post office for the Republican. Hamilton Wright Mabie claims that the Americans are idealists. They are, as long as a dollar mark is in their dream. Colonel Roosevelt, after having been twice elected President on a rabid Republican ticket, now announces he means to steer clear of party alliances. —Seattle Republican. Now, when did the Colonel say that? If the Colonel has two voices it was not the true voice that fathered that sentiment. Theodore Roosevelt is a Republican, and, in the language of Henri Grigsby or Noxubee, "a durn good one." Despatches tell us that Senator Tillman is resigned to an early setting out upon the Unknown Sea. May she old tyrant depart in peace, and meet his Maker without fear and trembling Those whom he prosecuted most, wish him well THE IMMORTAL SIXTEEN Led by Joseph G Cannon, who doffs his hat to no passing breeze of political fancy, sixteen members of the Congress courageously stood against the assault upon the Constitution made by the police of "popular elections". The wave of populism, which we thought was dead and buried, very evidently has been gathering power in the West, and against its first break the men of the East trembled and then gave up the ghost The hysteria behind all this "popular" movement, which is simply one way chosen by the unknown to ride over the known in our political affairs, may be sufficient to overcome the better sense of the people and take off their feet men otherwise strong in wisdom and choice in language, but we do not believe it. The United States Senate, despite the presence of its Borahs, for the Republicans, and its "Gum Shoes," for the Democrats, together with the "progressives" and others long on titles and short on wisdom, will take the measure of the situation before it takes the cue of the House and disturb the entire political structure built by the fathers by robbing it of one of its chief pillars. Popular election of senators, with Federal supervision of the election is itself a crime, but popular election of senators without that supervision would be a greater crime against popular government than secession itself The immortal sixteen who stood against the attack may now feel the arrows of the unthinking, but even the eldest may live to see that deed properly praised as a thing of patriotism. It was very proper that Joseph G. Cannon should have been first to stand HANDLING PROBLEMS In a recent issue of the Morning Telegraph we find this bit of verse. Negroes are said to be ousting whites from apartments in 135th street. They handle problems like these excellently well in Mississippi. The Telegraph is usually sensible, and often kind. We therefore put out the fires of indignation and give our racing and dramatic neighbor the benefit of admiration. If the writer had any knowledge of Mississippi, or the South, he would refuse to exhibit his ignorance so freely, for there the property-buying inclination of colored people is stimulated by kind words, and often by the coin, from the ruling race If the distinguished race-course authorities who operate the "only five-cent newspaper" has reference to matters more unpleasant, and desires to test a Mississippi method in operation in New York, why the fare to Harlem is only five cents, and there are three ways of getting there. We promise the gentlemen an evening of interest, such an evening as good people aroused by useless and unprovoked abuse can furnish to thoughtless dudes, who wag an irresponsible tongue or flurish a hidden pen Kindly indicate evening of appearance CHANCE'S DOOR The winning of another oratorical prize by a Negro college student is instanced only as another example of the race a peculiar capacity for public speaking. The Indians natural aptitude for oratory appears to be paralleled by that of the Negro The World. The race has made another peculiar capacity, and only asks not even an opportunity, but simply the benefit of the doubt. What Scott did in oratory at Columbia colored men can do in the daily affairs of life. Why does the World using the Scott victory for a test demand a wider opening of the door of Justice to colored men. Yesterday all the new Democratic Senators in the city set down to a dinner given by Senator-elect Leo, of Kentucky, etc. The Sun The Ace bags to inform the know all newspaper that Senator elect Lea is not from Kentucky, but from Tennessee, from Nashville, at that, and himself owns another know all news paper, The Tennessee. It is announced that Gov Harmon, of Ohio, is in Washington to appear before the Supreme Court as the attorney for the Chesapeake and Ohio Railroad. Isn't it something new for a Governor to plead a cause before the courts? Senators and Congressmen practice law, we know, but a THE NEW YORK AGE: THURSDAY, APRIL 20, 1911 Governor usually gives up his law business-apparently, at least,—during his term of office. DISCORD AND DEFEAT. The able Boston correspondent of the Springfield Republican, who is as much editor as reporter, lays emphasis particularly upon the political side of the attack recently made upon Booker T. Washington, perceiving in the silence of the great Republican leaders a sign of a general desertion by them of the cause of colored Republicans. He writes The attack on Dr. Washington in New York, and the response to it in the country, shows how far the Republicans have gone back from the noble stand they took on the race question after the Civil War. Let us suppose that a white college president had been assaulted in this way by some one like Dr. Hadley, or by Dr. Wilson, or Dr. Princeton, or Dr. Schurman, or Cornell,—how universal would be the outy? Yet Dr Washington has far exceeded any of those presidents in the service he has given to the country, and any two of them could be spared to go into politics, better than Tuskegee's president could be spared. Like Jefferson in 1785, "I tremble for my countrymen, and I tremble for you, just that He justice cannot slumber forever." In abandoning the Negroes and oppressing the Filipinos, the Republicans have committed the sin of political parricide; and they are properly punished by defeat and discord. Comparisons are indeed often very odious—to the man that suffers by them—but a Washington versus a Hadley or Wilson or Schurman is not unfair Perhaps we may calm the disturbed observer by reminding him that indignation may be silent as well as vowiferous. It may also be true that the silence of the leaders of the Republican party in this instance was due to the great difference between the mighty men of the party fifty years ago and those that control the party in the present. We do not relish the disintregation of the Republican party, signs of which are as clear as the stars in an unclouded sky, but we do like to think that its discomfiture, its sorrow and its many defeats are the price of its wicked desertion of the loyalest element it has ever claimed. If the Republican party is to die—many be the season before that time arrives—its sins of omission and commission against black Republicans may well take it off. It is apparent to all who know history and who but half observe that discord sits on the party throne, and that defeats are as common in its records as grass in spring. If its abandonment of the Negro and its oppression of the Filipino are the underlying causes of its evil days, why should we not hope that it will overcome and assume its old place as steward of the people's cause? The party has only again to take up with vigor the cause of the Negro, a cause not unjust, and cease oppressing the Filipino, which it has never done As for Booker Washington, at once one of the great handworks of the party and the ablest of Republicans, he might be invited into the wider service of his country and his party, or picked for a place on the national ticket. An old colored woman was asked by a Senator in Washington if she was not now satisfied after Johnson had whipped Jeffries said no "An' I never will be, tel I sees Booker Washington in de White House" THE BUGBEAR Our preacher, the Star, of dear old Zion, never gave us a sermon of more loth truth than this deliverance The 'social equality bugbear' is the busiest humbug that can be used as an attempt at argument to justify the curtains of the law. The rights of the law. Every same man knows that there can be no social intercourse and comradeship unless all parties to it are willing. The Negro alone cannot fellowship with others. They, too, must be willing. The time has come when there need be no mistake in this intercourse. Negro has the less is he likely to intrude upon the privacy of others. A gentleman, he be white or be he black, will not go where he is not wanted. To hold up the scarcow of race intermixture is no longer permissible for all men. So far as the Negro is concerned all he asks is to be left unmolested with an opportunity to show himself dexterity of a man's chance. His ignorance demands better school provision, his power can be overcome by economic means, or both of these, and their deviance will mean a better era for him. What makes all this "bumbug" stomach distressing is that the white men of the south who indulge it at convenient seasons know that colored people want no "social equality" with white people, and they know that colored women are compelled to defend themselves against "social equality" every day in the year. If there was any ground for the charge that white women fear contact with colored men, why is there a law against intermarriage in every southern state? Colored people not white people need to be protected against "social equality." What One Silly Woman Did" is the title of a scorching editorial by Miss Edna K Woolley, of the Cleveland Leader Miss Woolley, one of the bright lights of the genius of white womanhood, offers no apology for turning her wrath upon the woman whose spell tongue recently caused a great man no small annoyance. Nor does she spare the attitude of the American people towards colored Americans, the misjudgment of whom is one of the sins of the nation. It is worthy of note that all of the American women who write for the daily press are fair to the four winds upon the question of human rights and brotherhood. They have read a great deal, we imagine, and therefore have the knowledge that the strain of African blood courses through many great deeds, and much of the real literature of the world. Ella Wheeler Wilcox, the late Dorothy Dix—now a gentle memory,—Nixola Greeley and Edna Wooley are sisters in the common womanhood of the world. INSINUATIONS OF INFLUENCE. Monday of this week a colored man murdered a white man in Sixth avenue. The white man, we learn, had been drinking heavily, and unnecessarily abused the colored man, who was minding his own business. The white man finally threatened the colored man. The latter took his abuser at his word, and killed him That was too bad. We hate murder, but since it is mentioned as one of the cardinal crimes, we suppose it was anticipated by the Power that men would now and then shed their brother's blood. In this case if a white man had not abused a colored man because he thought he could do that without a price, why we would have one man less in the cemetery and two men more in the street. The daily papers each gave different reports of the affair, each saddling the cause of the crime upon the colored man. That was to have been expected. We take a paragraph from the Sun. A crowd composed of laborers from the tunnel excavations and bystanders made for the Negro, several of them carrying pieces of rope and shouting theUGHT to the police. The servers had some difficulty in making a path through the angry crowd to get the Negro to the police station. The mob "carried rope" "The reserves had trouble," etc. But the mob shouted not "Lynch him," but he ought to be lynched. Why this note of hesitancy where before it has been the bugle call of command to "take a Negro off?" Did the self-possession of Davis and the hot and indignant piece of lead that Davis held exercise so strong an influence? Everybody thought that he ought to be lynched but nobody wanted the job of lynching him. What ails the white people anyway? As gentle and kindly a race as time ever saw, are colored people to be driven by abuse into murder, anarchy and hatred? They are eaten up by fear and unkindness meets them everywhere. But for the constant work of their leaders we cannot tell the extent of their desperation. Law and order should always prevail, and it should surely prevail when the weak are concerned The Mobile Press brings us the distressing news that colored men have been turned out of a hotel in that city and white men have been put in their places. The management of the hotel, it is reported, said that it was simply a matter of getting "satisfactory help." Which implies that the colored help was not satisfactory. We wish we could share the faith of the Press and see through the eyes of it these men returning to work within a month or two. But we cannot do that. Everywhere, in the North and in the South, with particular reference to places of service, there are too many colored men being turned in the street. No cry of prejudice can justify the Mobile happening, for if there is one thing a white Southerner cherishes more than his "superiority," it is a colored servant—call the job by any name. There is something wrong somewhere, and those who may speak with authority ought constantly to point out the danger to reputation and to the pocket-book colored people will be called upon to sustain if there is no effort to improve the situation. Instead of a newspaper like the Press half excusing the dismissal of colored men from good positions, it should be warning them that they must become efficient workers or get off the hold of suspicion. Our interesting neighbor, the Joneses, is out in great hope and style the pre-eminent opportunity to proper Democratic leadership name, a half dozen members in committees, and two Governors in whom is discovered the stuff of which great leaderhip must and whom the people will find a further away from the Republican party. The Republican party suffers at the present from a lack of discipline and from the natural unrestricted policy that marks, if not a change at least a slight advance of ideas on government. The people will never follow the Democratic party, because that party has nothing definite upon which to appeal to the people, because its successes are invariably followed by endless confusion and because among its leaders are to be found none whose achievements are sufficient to warrant national trust or confidence. The Republican party will settle its little differences in ample time for next year's campaign, but even divided it could lick the donkey until it hears for help. The precious lily-whitees of South Carolina met in committee at Columbia last week. We have nothing to do with the monkeyshines cut in their own right, but we do think that they ought to be ashamed that they sought to create the impression that President Taft is a party, to their wretchedness. John G. Capers, who owes everything he has been, and has got, politically, to the kindly offices of the colored Republicans of the state has a way of intruding himself on the President at Washington, having his visit announced in the newspapers, and then hurrying back to Columbia and holding a committee meeting with the faithful ex-officeholders. The impression gets out that he had a word from Taft, and that Taft is willing to take a word from him Mr Capers is thus very often guilty of a malicious slander. For example The following resolution was passed with a whoop by the lily white committee, the meeting of which, Capers announced, had the endorsement of Mr Tatt "Resolved, that we command what we trust may become a fixed policy when colored men are to be appointed to high office, that they be taken from those sections of our country where they are a real party asset at the polls and assigned to official labors in those sections where no obstructions will be placed in their way and where their official presence will cause no local irritation." If that isn't sauce for the goose, we don't know what is. What policy? Did the President tell Capers that his policy would be in keeping with the sense of that resolution, and that he would, therefore, refuse to appoint any colored men to offices in the South? Certainly not, and Capers knows it, and everybody else, excepting his pretty fools that live in hopes only to die in despair, knows it. President Taft, we have reason to believe, at the proper time, will take his place against Capers and his ilk. If he doesn't take his place we shall be greatly disappointed. Take it or not, we know that when the "white" Republicans of South Carolina adopted that crazy resolution, they read themselves out of the Republican party. The next Republican convention we are sure, will take their measure and hand it to them in plain figures. AN ABLE DELIVERANCE The address delivered by Moorfield Storey before the meeting of the Association for the Advancement of Colored People recently held in Boston was a very able deliverance and should be widely circulated. If this association will follow the broad lures marked out by the addresses of Mr Moorfield Storey and Mr Oswald Garrison Villard it will have the united support of the colored people throughout the country When will the city of New York help our respectable colored people to save themselves from the vicious and the vulgar, that are making certain streets and corners in Harlem not unbearable, but unsafe? Perhaps the Equity Congress, whatever that is, might care to turn aside from soldier-policeman talk long enough to consider a problem right around the corner Harlem must be protected against the unthinking and the ill-bred THE UNIFORMED SNOR (Editorial The World.) The war cloud that lowered over the Mexican frontier has suddenly shifted to San Antonio, where the maneuvers have developed a really hostile issue over the transportation of Negro troops in Jim Crow cars. To add to the complications, the question has arisen of quartering a negro militia colonel among the army officers who, in the polite newspaper phrase 'share more or less in the castle conventions of the South.' No fault is found with Negro cavalrymen when there is fighting to be done. There was no Jim Crow division on the firing-line at Santiago, Pine Ridge and elsewhere. Negro troops also give an artistic effect to bronze memorials erected in public parks. These appreciations, however, have to do with the Negro soldier in actual combat. In war games played in the piping times of war, the conditions are different. The South Koreans providing for the surrender of Nigra passengers in reasons or reasons in important question of security rights particularly in respect of estate traffic but without a reason on the statute books they seem to apply to soldiers as much as to civilians. The Nation does not want or the Drawsville of fair. It will be a worse for all about one of the persons in the situation if their would pose a protection the order, and in respect of including and intimately, provide for the South THE ENDED FARCE President Taft Did Right in Ordering Colored Soldiers Removed from San Antonio to Brownsville. (From the New York Independent) Now that the force is ended, and the players have retired, let us say a more serious word. San Antonio is not to be another Brownsville. We trust the race journals will not get excited over the readiness of the President soldiers away. He did right, and he did it in a most happy way. He ordered them sent into the complainant's very territory, even to Brownsville. Whether Negro soldiers in the old affair shot up Brownsville we do not know, nor do we care much; they had the provocation. And these black soldiers at San Antonio had provocation. They were told that they, soldiers, and good soldiers, of the United States, wearing its uniform, were not fit to sit in the same seats in a public conveyance as other people, and they were thrust into a place by themselves, and yet they behaved themselves with more Christian meekness than soldierly resentment, and are credited with general good conduct. The law is unjust and bad, but they submitted to it. Texas is not yet a wholly civilized State. It still enacts some barbarous laws. But in Rome we must do as the Romans do, and in Dahomey we must not resent the tribal customs by acts of violence Violence in Dahomey under such conditions would give white men a bad name; and here Negroes may express their minds with courteous freedom, but should yield quietly, if contemptuously or sarcastically, to laws that discriminate against them. That is the prudent way, and the Christian way. Of all men Negro soldiers should be very careful not to give offense by illegal violence. They especially have the honor of their race in their keeping.

What power hath Truth to stir our zeal? What wry hath human need? Mid earth's conflicting woe and weal. What voices should we heed? What are we here for? Here to grow In every grace divine! The beauty of the world to know, And in its beauty shine; To follow The sphere there it lies, With loneliness and scorn; To hold earth's bounty equal prize Of every child that's born. What are we here for in this maze Which no man yet hath solved? Here to achieve the noblest days Since first the sphere revolved! Not ours to dull the soul with mirth, Outdrowning human groan, But ours to sublimate the earth TOWN TOPICS A firm of Jews have opened a shoe store in 135th street between Fifth and Lenox avenues. Saturday night an Age reporter counted eight colored people waiting to buys shoes. When will colored men learn anything that they ought to learn about business. Two weeks ago the Age advised the equally colored men that colored Jews read that "piece" in The Age, while colored men most likely read where Miss Jones expected to spend Easter. --- The Afro-American Labor Exchange has opened nice quarters in 135th street between Lenox and Seventh avenues. Connected with the bureau is an up-to-date messenger service. We hope it is not true that a disreputable house is likely to be opened in 135th street by one of the city's notorious sporting-house proprietors. If it is opened, The Age will take it to District Attorney Whitman. Enough of a thing is sometimes too much. Walker W Washington has been on the sick list for several days, and his downtown friends greatly missed him. He is out again with his accustomed smile. Allen and English's millinery establishment on Lenox avenue near 133d street is a busy shop there. Lenten rhum is the name of the rhum are among the first milliners in the city, and their work finds high praise on all sides. Henry V Plummer, a prominent attorney of Umana, Neb., was a visitor in the city last week, coming over from Washington Mr. Plummer had never before visited New York. He did not want to leave.

Would This Affect Christian Faith and Doctrines and Preve Them All False?—Pastor Russell Preve It Go. London, April 24. The London Tabernacle was crowded to hear Pastor Russell's Easter sermon on "The Resurrection Hope the Only One." His text was from I Corinthians xv, 12-18:— 4 "How say some among you that there is no resurrection of the dead? * * * If Christ be not risen, then is our preaching vain and your faith is also vain; * * * then they also which are fallen asleep in Christ are perished." The speaker said:— Bibles Have Been Read Too Carelessly Bibles Have Been Read Too Carelessly. For years God's people have had excellent Bibles and thus been blessed far in advance of brethren who lived during the "Dark Ages." We have read our Bibles too carelessly and often have most of us wondered at the great stress St. Paul laid upon the resurrection. Rarely is the subject ever preached upon now and rarely is it ever thought of except as an absurdity. The reason for this is not far to seek. From childhood we have been taught that nobody is dead, that in dying everybody, good and bad, gets more alive than ever before, that this alliveness to the saintly few means spiritual powers and an immediate entrance into heaven, death being swallowed up in life. The unsaintly masses also, we were told, would have quickened abilities after dying; that they became more alive, more able to appreciate and suffer pain. Our Catholic neighbors told us that the majority would immediately go to Purgatory, there to be tried by various sufferings and tortures—later on to an outer heaven. Our Protestant teachers were to the effect that the unsalaly masses, unfit for the presence of God and the holy, would be consigned to an eternity of torture and made very much more alive to their awful sufferings. Thus we were taught to believe that death is a portal or door into an insurer life—that nobody is dead. Many of us perplexed ourselves and were perplexed by others with questions respecting how there could be a "resurrection of the dead" if nobody is dead. We avoided the question, or gave the answer, "Mystery; go run and play." Now What Do We Find? When once we see that "the wages of sin is death" and not eternal torment; and that the Bible hell is the temb and not a fiery furnace; and that all mankind go to school—to hades—just as did our Savior; then we begin to see that what we all need is to be saved from school, from hades, just as the Savior was. A resurrection salvation is thus the salvation hope of the Church and of the world. What a relief this gives us as respects parents, children, neighbors, friends and the heathen, who have died out of Christ, unsaintly. What comfort it brings to know that they are sleeping in the great prison-house of death, unconscious of the laps of time, waiting for the Redeemer, who will set up His Kingdom in glory, associating His Bride with Himself for the blessing of all the families of the earth. The bringing forth of the prisoners out of the prison-house of death will be to set before them, under the glorious provisions of the New Dispensation, an opportunity for life overlapping by obedience to the laws of the Kingdom under the assistance of the heavenly One—the alternative being not eternal torment, but death-Second Death, from which there will be no hope of recovery All Souls Go to School Some one may say, Pastor Russell, what about the soul? If the body goes to shoul, hades, the tomb, where goes the soul? I reply that it is the soul that goes to shoul, to hades, the grave, the tomb, the state of death. Although the words shoul and hades are translated grave more times than translated hell, nevertheless they refer not to the mound of earth, which is in the nature of a monument, but to the secret, hidden condition, preferably shaped the tomb, the abyss. As Jesus descended into heaven, so do all mankind. As the Father raised Him from the dead on the third day, so it is promised that He will raise on the Church, up from the dead. More than this, the unjust also who have not been impressed of God the present life shall all be awakened from the sleep of death. They come forth informed respecting the lived under the reign of Socrates. They will come forth that they learn the ways of truth, the reward of which is life. The glorified Jesus and 11 Church the Bible will be Priesthood, whose guiding thousand years will be the of mankind not only from but also to perfection of it man in his own order or to splitting will bless as man willing, lifting them up from dation and menness and time into which all have fallen man's disobedience, under the heredity. LIBERIA'S OPPORTUNITIES Dr W. E. Shaw Says Little Republic is Greatly Helped by Recent Loan—Natural Advantages of Country Are Many—A Bright Outlook. In an article written for THE ACE, Dr W. E. Shaw of Kwittath, West Africa, discusses Liberia's future, in which he tells of the advantages offered by the little country. The article People of African descent throughout the world, and especially in America, have watched with much concern the negotiations which pose the rehabilitation of the Republic of Liberia. As a race we should be cold and dull indeed if we were unmoved by the heroic struggle of the little republic to maintain her independence, and right well has also done to keep her European governments lowed up to the European governments who have long schemed at her un- On this big continent, the black man's continent, with its 12,000,000 square miles, the black man has only 21,000 square miles (Liberia), but great are his possibilities even there. Nowwithstanding the financial misfortunes of the Republic, much credit must be given her leaders who have weathered the storms in the sea of state-craft for eighty-eight years. Established in 1822. The establishment of the Republic of Liberia has been a remarkable thing in itself. In 1822 a handful of American Negroes were landed on the savage shores of West Africa. They had nothing, and practically no aid has come to them since. In 1847 they dured their mission to the African republic, and from that day they have maintained an orderly, peaceful government, and the only internal disturbances have been those that were inspired by European governments whose territory borders Liberia. The march of events have been wonderful. Think of the past, the enduring in the history of Liberia, and then think of the present. Today she stands as one of the world's republics, successfully performing the great duty she has imposed upon herself in the redemption of a race and demonstrating that race's ability to stand alone, she has long since passed the age at which it was prophesied she must die, and that the only thing that remains is at hand, thanks to Dr Ernest Irons and Mr. Emmett Scott. Settlement of Boundary Controversy. Not only is Liberia helped by the recent loan agreed upon, but she is better off because her boundary lines have now been settled in a manner that can permit of no controversy regarding them in the future, and this means much when we know how England and France have heretofore been chopping off great blocks of her borders as pleased them. France is now in possession of all the rich ivory coast which formerly belonged to Liberia. But Liberia is on surer footing than ever before, and it is to be hoped capital will be attracted to this rich country. The long years of struggles and their attendant miseries of blood and tears have united the people and they are to the recent diplomatic effort of their statesmen, and are joining in prayer to Almighty God to set his seal upon their work. Here we have a territory about the size of Ohio. The climate is healthful and differs but little from that of North Alberta is the only part of West Africa. We have been found, and it is not known what the mountains of the unopened part of the country contain. The soil is fertile and suitable for all kinds of crops, but many improvements are demanded to ensure a reasonable standard of comfort in daily life. Plan Building Railroads With the building of railroads and the coming of other economic necessities, great will be the industrial changes there is in cable communication with the railroads. There are forests of rubber, ebony, rosewood, mahogany, acacia, and many other woods which the markets demand. Cotton, rice, sugar cane, coffee, bacco, corn, cocoa, and kola all find the tobacco as do vegetables. Indigenous to the country are oranges, bananas, pinespeech, mangoes and ground nuts. Chicken fowl, hogs, sheep, cows, and goats are found everywhere. It is hoped that the American Negro will be attracted by the wonderful opportunities in this undoubtedly rich country. A company, or persons possessing sufficient working capital, should be able to exploit the resources of Liberia, would earn enormous profits in a very short time. There are business opportunities in other parts of Africa, but outside of Liberia, Africa is now a man's country", and as Dr. Ernest J. you recently said, a handful of white boss the whole business. For happiness, boss the whole business. Opportunity to make profitable investments Liberia offers advantages to the American Negro that are not to be found elsewhere. After all the "experiment" in Liberia has contributed a chapter to the history of the race of such as we have every reason to be proud. MRS WASHINGTON SPEAKS *Maple of Texas Capital Crowd Church —Sad Death of a College Student* Correspondence of The Age day, and prescheed two sermons and gave a lecture, Dr. L. L. Campbell of Third Baptist Church and Rev. J. H. Harrold of Mt. Olive Baptist with their congregations assisted Rev. J. T. S. White in entertaining the Bishop. Rev. S. M. Hill, Vive-President of the S. S. Convention, and Secretary of the S. S. Convention, Paris, Texas, has been called to the pastorate of the 18th Street Baptist Church. His installation will take place on the fifth Sunday in April. Rev. Thompson, pastor of Bethesda Baptist Church of Marshall, Texas, died unexpectedly last Sunday morning and his remains were brought to Oakwood Cemetery. The body laid in state in chapel of First Baptist Church from Sunday night till Tuesday morning when Rev. Lights of Houston and Rev. Barbour of Galveston preached the funeral sermon. Dr. S. W. D. Jones mad a loud cry during ceremony. He is well known here and all over the state, once a member of above church choir, and at present musical director of the Women's Department of the National Baptist Convention. The edifice was filled with sorrowing friends. Jeremy J. F. Dawkins' brother-in-law, who was attending Prairie View College, had a slight difficulty with a fellow student, who remonstrated by striking him on the side of the head with a spade, from which lockjaw set. The coroner's evidence is very shocking to his many friends as well as his family. Hon. T. J. White is holding a mass meeting at Grant's Chapel looking toward the celebration at Emancipation Park on June 19. Wilson Carrol is holding the same kind of meeting at the museum. The night of April 28 is anxiously awaited for Mr Richard B. Harrison of Chicago, the reader, is to be in the city under the auspices of President R. S. Lovinggood of Samuel Houston College. The Williams is glad to note the increased interest in The New York Age. He never recommends anything that isn't good. EASTER IN BUFFALO. All the 'Churches Filled'—Fine Program at the Culture Congress — A Surprise Wedding — The Tyre Lodge's Easter Ball a Big Social Event. Regular Correspondence of the Asc. Buffalo. N. Y., April 19.—Esater services were celebrated at all of the churches with special music. The altars of the church were decorated with palm and Easter illites. St. Phillip's altar was a mass of flowers, the lily cross being one of the most beautiful ever seen in this church. Mr. Leonard Sayers sang several solos. Mr Nelson Fairbush, chormaster, was able to conduct the choir after an illness of several weeks. At the other churches special services were held. At the Christian Culture Congress the program was in charge of Miss Jessie Morris and Mr. Leonard Sayers. The musical program was a treat. Next Sunday, at the Congress, under the charge of Mrs. R. Ellsworth Lee, a program will be given that should pack the house. Mrs. Burton Fletcher, Buffalo's foremost elocutionist, will read "The Land of the Blue Flower," by Mrs. Francis H. Burnette, and Mrs. Irene Pellette, soprano from the Ohio Choral Singing. (a) "Oh Lovely Flowers," by Maurde (b) "They That Sow in Tears," by Rogers. Miss Pellette will be accompanied by Miss Mildred Dye. It is hoped that the members will assemble early as the house will no doubt be filled to hear those gifted women. Mrs William H. Talbert has been invited to be one of the patronesses of the Graded Teachers' Union for their entertainment to be given Monday evening, April 21 at 4 A. Rev. H. Lester Smith will lecture upon the Oberammergaue, showing scenes from the Paslon, Plas. The one event to which all society looks forward with eager anticipation is the annual Easter ball of Tyre Lodge No. 43, F & A M. The 15th annual reception held at Lyric hall Wednesday evening included early receptions and to Mr. J Robert Mason, who for years has been the genial chairman of all arrangements, belongs unstinted praise. Mr Mason in making this affair a social one has in his own quiet way established the precedent of catwalk elimination everything that is not strictly first class. Associated with him this year were Mr James S. Walker, Mr Homer L. Bow, Mr Tucker, each gentleman a committee in himself. The place selected this year was Walkers famous Lyric hall and we were beautiful everything we were beautiful, Easter lilies prevailing with the elegant costumes of beautiful women and the full dress of all gentlemen. This made the scene one of dazzling beauty and grandeur. To the music of the famous Aureach Orchestra more amorous last waltz was added. The supper room was artistically decorated and an elaborate menu, furnished by Mr. Henry J Hamilton, Buffalo most popular jersey, left nothing undone. In the assembly were seen many visitors from nearby towns, Niagara and Toronto, the Toronto theater and Lori Erie, Ontario. Some of the ladies and their guests follow Miss Clara Payne, white chiffon volle over white silk. Miss T Payne black glove de chene. Miss L Payne blue glove, pearl trumpet.

At the time the stage was made a personal letter was sent to Director Winthrop Ames in its subject, and the following reply was received The New Theatre, Oct 21, 1910 To the Dramatic Editor of The Age In answer to your letter of octo- ber 11 which, pray pardon me for not harm, answered earlier but which was postponed owing to press of business. I have re- ferred this letter to Mr. Johns Hopp, who is in charge of the distri- tion of tickets for the East Side performers. I don't know that Mr. Hopp can accommodate you, since the entire series was originated with the specific idea of distributing these low-priced tickets to the people of the East Side. It is easy to the so much to give these performances that I don't think the founders would willing to extend them. However in the future we would be in a pos- tion to extend the performances in which case we would be glad to give the colored people of New York consultation. Your very truly, WINTHROP AMES Before commenting further I will to produce two letters, written to a critic or more received in which the writers aired their respective views as to whether it would be a good idea for the directors of The New Theatre to grant the colored playgoer the privilege of attending performances at low prices. The first letter is a well known citizen of Brooklyn, who has discussed the matter with the in person. He does not desire to have his name mentioned, and I will refer to him as a Brooklynite. However, he is averse to the publication it is views on the subject The letter Brooklyn, N. Y. Oct. 24, 1910 To the Dramatic Editor of The Age For some time I have been deeply interested in your editorials on the dramatic page, and up to this time have agreed with your views on every subject. I must say, however, that I think in your zeal to promote the welfare of the race you certainly did an indiscreet thing by advising the managers of the New Theatre to allow colored people to that theatre at reduced prices. Now I know you meant all right when you wrote the article, but can't you see that such a step would do the race more harm than good? Why, after one performance, the class of colored people that would get hold of the tickets would act in such a disgraceful manner that the directors would decide to stop extending the colored people the courtesy originally agreed upon. Think this over and see if you don't come to the conclusion that it would be best for all concerned that colored people did not go to the New Theatre in large numbers. Hoping you will pardon me for taking issue with you and making my views known to you and wishing you future success I am very truly. A BROOKLYNITE Here is another letter which was written by New Yorker. It will be interest of the New Yorker and the Brooklynite to a public debate, so they are so much at variance on the question of colored persons at tendu. The New Theatre at public prices I am not personally interested with the New Yorker. I will treat him as I have the Brooklyn state his wife without giving name. The letter follows New Yorker 12.1.19 To the Dramatic Editor of The Age In reading an article on the dramatic page of The New York few days ago I was sorry to note that you are asking the directors of the New Theatre to show the colorful people of this city the same consideration as given the white Iat Stilers that it allow them to see producers at public prices. I hope that I am not questioning your views. I do think Sp of n the The new friend of THE how great with reverence in this country like the "high ground," others the low ground," but few the "middle ground" The happy medium seems to be a realm unknown. I so often notice that in forming con- clusions on the so-called Negro question a member of the race will size up For entire situation, from his own com- dition in life, as did the New Yorker, who being in good circumstances, as- sumes that every color the treasure should not keep the courtesy of the manager. Of course this New Yorker spitting himself in the catgery with the writes who can afford to spend $4 a seat and go to the theater in tour cars. But there is no imputed of red people in New York who com- mute of such affluence. Then there are sure in greater New York who have collected a taste for first-class shows but whose incomes are small and who would willingly avail themselves of the opportunity to witness Broadway attr- tions at reduced prices. On the star hand, my friend re- tains the bridge is in error when he maintains that the colored pave what was used to attend The New Theatre is popular prices would be given at a mis conduct that they would disagree themselves and the rice Sue's they would depart thems with us in the those lives in the East Side. If there is in dis- posing of the next the medium of dis- tribution would have a say in the war should become in its servant to them and all obey the order to be commited. I am unable to agree with the New Yorker of the Brooklyn fired to an audience that must stare will again ask that the Shore not be be permitted to see Bridges pro- nces at The New T --- WHERE THE SHOWS ARE.

Career of a Colored New Yorker Who Has Made a Fortune Selling the News Wm H White, who was born in Charlotte, Va., in the year 1853, came to New York a mere boy and managed to accumulate enough from such occupations as waiter, cook, porter and steam shipping to enable him to embark in business. His first venture He opened up at University place and soon gained the most profound respect of the people of that section, and all of them became his customers and friends. After years in that locale he sold THE MASTER PROF WM H WHITE his prosperous business to advantage and trained for the stage, and by hard and diligent study under such men as Prof Drury Harry T Purleigh and other instructors of music, stage department and voice culture, he became fully qualified to entertain in any circle devoting much of his time and talent to the colored churches of New York City. He again became active in his stress, executing of the Columbus avenue and his street it up a highly printable news trade, which, in careful management, has added much to the wealth he had already acquired. Though Mr. White has amassed a small fortune in this way his greatest asset seems to be politeness, his extreme courtesy to all distinguishing him from the average man and makes him of special value to his race.
