LEWIS BANQUET A GALA AFFAIR Prominent Negroes Assemble and Celebrate Bostonian's Appointment Banqueters Believe Lewis Appointment a Milestone in Forward March of the Race Assistant United States Attorney General Replies to Criticisms Made Against Chief Executive. Special to THE NEW YORK AOR. BOSTON, Mass., July 5—Last Friday at Young's Hotel seventy-five prominent Negroes met around the festal board to celebrate the appointment and confirmation of the Hon. William H. Lewis as Assistant Attorney General of the United States, the highest position that has ever been conferred upon a colored man by the National Government. The banquet will be long remembered by those present, and the prevailing sentiment was that the appointment of Lewis to such a representative position, despite the many handicaps the race encounters, is proof that the Negro in this country is making healthy progress. This fact was also noted upon elegantly embossed menu cards in the following inscription: Our longest step forward toward the goal of equal rights since the Amendments House 1870—Senate 1871 — Bench 1870 — Within the Cabinet Circle 1911. At the banquet Friday evening party lines were temporarily forgotten and the element of Negroes in Boston which spends a greater part of the time protesting a dwelling only on the dark side of the race problem was conspicuous by its absence. Instead of an indignation meeting, the gathering, to the contrary, was one in which those in attendance came together to make merry and celebrate the appointment of William H Lewis as Assistant Attorney General of the United States. Capt. Charles L. Mathewa Spaaka Among those present was Captain Charles L. Mathews, who was elected to the Legislature of Massachusetts in 1866, and has the distinction of being the first colored man to be elected a member of a State Legislature in the United States. Mr Mathews is now eighty-two years old, and although quite feeble, read a neat speech of congratulations to Mr Lewis. James A. Wolf, the oldest colored member of the Boston bar and the only colored man to be elected to the position of commander of the Grand Army in the or any other State, was the first speaker at the evening. He said he had been enough to appreciate the importance of this appointment for the colored people. I regard it as a milestone in the forward march of the race," he said. Among the others who spoke were Edward J. Brown, who claims to be the original Massachusetts colored Democrat and also tells the position of Deputy Health Commissioner under the Commissioner. He is a representative Robert T. Tramme of the Boston Globe editor, W. Clarence Matthews, the principal baseball player, now assistant instructor in the Boston School. J. Solomon Gaines, Brent Park, Rev J H Duchene, and Jason Vaughn, of North Cal. With Simon Vaughn stated that he followed Howard about the same time and Mr. Lows was in Hewlett. He were both prominent in this way came to toasts and to congrat- speakers Mr Lewis de- tress in which he As a U.S. Attorney-General Lewis will it so long a march in the banquet hall as five years ago. This thing was not meant for for you it was meant people of Boston. As it in trust and I hope to does that it imposes upon services will open the way master for others who come to still higher honors" some criticisms which have been cast President Taft and a nation of his own statement that it is a mere personal honor which conferred upon him, Mr Lewis quotes President as saying "I want thing for the colored people of the United States. I know I am a little but when my record is fini- ted I not think it will be found that I have been behind my predecessors in recognizing the colored people. "You may sometimes find some fault with what the President says," continued HON. WILLIAM H. LEWIS Assistant United States Attorney General the speaker, "but you must judge him by what he does." In referring further to the kind of criticism which has been poured out upon Mr. Taft and upon those among the colored people who have supported him, Mr. Lewis said "I know there are people who talk of loyalty to the race when they meant loyalty to themselves, but no one man stands for and epitomizes in himself this great race of ours. "Sometimes we are referred to as 'an alien people,' and sometimes we act as such, putting ourselves, by our harsh, bitter criticism of our government and of the people of the United States, beyond the pale of the sympathies of the people by whom we are surrounded. "But we must be before all things else Americans. I like to think of America as our country, the land in which we have been given the opportunity to grow to manhood; in which we have had our great racial experience. "Whatever hardship we may have to meet here, however far short of what we have been sponsored and what we deserve the freedom and the opportunity which we have here now may be, we can at least stand up and thank God that we are American citizens. Our fathers could not do that, but if we use our opportunities well our sons can do it and they will have greater opportunities and a larger life than we have had. "In return this country owes us protection in all the rights which have been guaranteed to us under the constitution and which are ours by the very nature of the government under which and the character of the people among whom we live. I do not minimize the wrongs which we suffer as a race. I would not for any place or honor that could be conferred upon me deny that these wrongs exist "I do believe, however, if we connect our cause, not with each superficial current or change of opinion which seems to affect our interests, but with deeper and more significant forces that are behind events in this country nothing under Heaven can prevent us obtaining ultimate justice. "There is nothing in this common life of ours so trivial as the thing we call prejudice. It all ends, at any rate, with the grief. In the great daily practical life of men, on the other hand, there is nothing permanent but justice. In the long run the Negro will get justice here as other men have gotten it." In concluding his address Mr Lewis said, "I shall never forget whatever comes to me in the future, and I trust this is not the end-- that I and mine are one with you and yours. I cannot go up without taking you up with me, and I cannot go down without dragging you down with me" Committee of Arrangements The arrangements for the banquet were under the direction of G W. Forbes, one of the assistant librarians of the Boston Public Library, who was Mr Lewis' college chum when they were in Amherst together. The trustmaster was Dr Samuel F Courtine who, like Mr Lewis, was himself born in Virginia and has been his intimate and life long friend. The other members of the committee were James H Welf Capt Charles L Lewis, William O Goodell, J H Lewis, the oldest Negro merchant tail in Boston, U A Ridley, J Solomon Gaines, David F Crawford, R T Teamob and C G Morgan. Before the speechs began letters of regret were read from Dr Booker T Washington, Charles W Anderson, Collector of Internal Revenue for the Port of New York, Hon J C Napar, Regster of the Treasury, and others. The name of Dr Washington was greeted with loud and prolonged cheers. Among the others present were Albert Gilbert, W S Sparrow, W H Mathews of Newport, R L D Horace McKerrow of Worcester, Nelson P Wentworth, William Lloyd Marshall of West Newton Centre and George Ray of Waltham Gilbert Harris, Dr Ben Robinson, Emory Morris and James R Hand. So successful was the banquet that it was resolved to form, with the persons present as charter members, the Lewis Club, to meet annually for the purpose of taking stock of the gains made by Negroes during the preceding twelve and to unite the leaders of Boston of all shades of opinion for common efforts along those lines in which all have a common interest. ASBURY SPEAKS BEFORE HOWARD UNION LODGE Guest of Honor at Reception Given Last Friday Evening OLD GUARD'S EXTRAVAGANCE Speaker Also Tells of Many New Lodges Being Formed—Board of Management to Organize in September. J. C. Ashbury, special deputy of the United States for the Ancient Order of Odd Fellows of Leeds, England, was guest of honor and principal speaker Friday evening at the meeting and reception given by Howard Union Lodge. G. U. O. O. F., at New Central Hall, 116 West 33rd street. It will be remembered that Mr. Ashbury quit the Odd Fellows dominated by the Morris faction a few months ago because of the extravagant and unbusinesslike methods employed by the Morris crowd in conducting the affairs of the order Howard Union Lodge, No. 1337, is one of the largest lodges in the State and a large and enthusiastic gathering greeted Mr. Ashbury, whose utterances were listened to with marked attention throughout. The meeting was called to order by P. B. Smith, permanent secretary, and Mr. Ashbury was introduced by Fred R. Moore. Mr. Ashbury first told of his success to date in forming new lodges in different States, and declared that announcement would be made in the near future as to where representatives of the new order would meet to organize a board of management. He stated that the majority of lodges had decided to hold the session in September. As Mr. Ashbury was for years editor of the Odd Fellows Journal, he is conversant with the high-handed manner in which the Morris crowd used thousands of dollars of the Odd Fellows money to no good purpose, and he related many transactions to sustain his charge that those in power have been guilty of looting the money base the order. Howard Union Lodge, No. 137 is one of the many large and influential lodges throughout the country that has protested against the law's expenditure of money on the part of the "Old Guard" and the imposing of special taxes on the lodges by the Sub Committee of Management in order to raise more money. Howard Union Lodge was expelled from the order by the District Grand Lodge of New York some months ago for refusing to pay the Odd Fellows Home Tax, and the action of the District Grand Lodge was sustained by the Sub Committee of Management, which was controlled by the Morris crowd, last September in Baltimore. DR. JACKSON MAKES DISCOVERY Attracting Attention in Medical Circles by Declaring He Has Cure for Rheumatism—New York Medical Journal Comments on Negro Surgeon's Findings Rapidal to The New York Asst Philadelphia, Pa July 5, Dr Algeron R Jackson, the well known surgeon of this city and head of the Mercy Hospital, is attracting attention in medical circles by announcing that he has covered a cure for acute articular rheumatism, and in the current number of the New York Medical Journal tells of the experiments and findings. Dr Jackson refers in his article to five cases which turned out satisfactorily under his method of treatment. In commenting on Dr Jackson's discovery the New York Medical Journal says in part There are few young practitioners who have not had the chargin of imagining, at one time or another, that they had accomplished a cure in some long-standing case by the exhibition of some recent and well-adventurous early to these patients back into their former condition after a few days or weeks. The treatment, NEW YORK, THURSDAY, JULY 6, 1911. however, of rheumatic fever, described in the issue of the journal by Dr Algernon Brassner Jackson, and for which he is careful not to claim too much, has nothing mysterious or magical in its nature. Our readers will join us in the hope that the hypodermic administration of magpie globulin will prove in this wretched disease, if not a specific, at least sufficiently analytic and eliminant to give comfort to thousands. In speaking of his discovery Dr. Jackson says that his article in the Medical Journal is a preliminary report and that he hopes in the near future to present to the public a more careful study of his method for curing rheumatism. NORWOOD MAKES REPLY But let us see. Under "A Day of Separate Things" and "Normal Conditions Do Not Prevail," he both condemns and defends "The Crowism" and sectarianism of all kinds. We absolutely condemn both of them. He also condemns the conditions is justified in adding another wrong condition. If the then conditions were wrong, the addition of the same kind did not make them right, but increased them by less. All these demonstrations admit the wrong, but we are going to magnify them to those exceeding others. Methodists failed to do this, and said those people who make racial differences in the church are wrong, and we are going to increase that wrong by making the magnitude this difference by making a discriminating difference. We will give it organic recognition. So they organized a church whose corner stone is race prejudice. They said we are going to do wrong because the white member of the M. E. Church are doing wrong. But we who remained said we have enough wrongs already, two wrongs will never make a right. We remained there under hard, wrong conditions, like Christians of old. Those people went to the church of the wrong institution. We remained right in spite of wrong conditions. If we are to go wrong because of wrong conditions, when would we do right? In this respect the seconding colored Methodist and the white Methodist like to use the Master and both of them yet fail to represent him as fully as the colored membership of the M. E. Church does. This colored membership sacrificed to do it, but in making this sacrifice they developed a Christian manhood that is important to them and colored members or remaining white members of the M. E. Church. We have a Christian manhood, not a black man nor a white-man manhood. We remained right. We hope to continue right, and we now continue wrong, the membership of church right. We need Christians who will be right in spite of wrong conditions, and not wrong because of wrong conditions, like Daniel of old. Differ as to Method of Getting Recognition. Go ahead, doctor, getting recognition is doing wrong because someone else did it. You know that kind of recognition. You say Negroes have made no conditions but merely accepted things as they found them. African Methodism is a condition, and Negroes made it. The doctor dissents from them being imitators and then begins them for being imitators. They justify them in being imitators, because one city after another adopting government by commission. White people are doing this imitating. They do not what they please. They are not on probation. They have passed the board of public opinion, and a Board of Public Opinion does not hurt them. One kills a Imitation is a good thing, but if African Methodism concedes imitation to all you have done as you do concession, it has not done much for the race. Many of your pastors have been educated in the South, creed the M. Church with having the best trained coloured men in the South. Bishop Scott went to Vera for the same reason that Bishop Taylor and Hartwell went there, selected to go there. I am secretary of a Methodist Episcopal conference. We need orientation. We are around being imitators. Imitation cannot pass us. Yes, we know you are and have for a long time been seeking to fraternize. If you had secured what you went out to see, you would not have to fret. But you failed in the going. You did not have to leave. We remained, and so could you, unless as tradition and a certain record is said to have it, you were expelled. If you were not expelled, you claim to be, let us alone. Do not treat us like Democrates treat Negroes. We will not disturb you unless wishing you home with us where you could help fight the battle of the race disturbs you. You will not be frightened by Ryster H. Norwood, Pastor St. Paul Methodist Episcopal Church, Baltimore, Md. MORAL CONDITIONS ARE TO BE IMPROVED MORAL CONDITIONS ARE TO BE IMPROVED Society of the Sons of North Carolina Issues Call for Meeting CITIZENS ASKED TO TAKE PART Conditions of Immorality Existing Among Girls in Some Sections of Brooklyn Said to be Deplorable.

THE AGE has received word from Monrovia that the Liberian Government has been informed by the County Superintendent of Maryland that the French officials at Bleiron seized recently three surf boats belonging to German firms of Harper trading up the Cavally River on the Liberian side. Bleiron is a French port of entry situated at the mouth of the river. The French, it is reported, demanded customs duty on the merchandise the boats contained before they could be allowed to proceed up the river, and declared that they (the officials) were acting strictly on instructions received from headquarters. The headmen of the boats promptly took the matter to the Liberian officials stationed at Kablake, situated just opposite Bleiron. The Liberians charged that the French officers were violating the treaty to demand duty on traffic bound for the Liberian side of the river. This was to no avail, as the French insisted upon acting, as they claimed, on orders from headquarters. The boats were compelled in these circumstances to return to Harper with their loads. The Department of State has taken the matter up with the Paris Government by cable through the Liberian Minister there, and asked for immediate removal of restrictions under the privilege foreseen in Article III of the treaty dated 8th September, 1907, which reads: The navigation of all streams forming the frontiers shall be free and open to the traffic of French citizens and proteges as well as to Liberian citizens and subjects. The officials at Montrovia are of the mind that the colonial officers of the French have probably taken steps without instructions from Paris. At this writing there has been no reply from the French Government. Meanwhile, the Government at Washington has been appressed of the facts in the case in order that she may if further developments require make friendly representations in behalf of this Government. While all of this is going on trade on the Cavally is absolutely blocked FINISHES AT CORNELL Special to THE NEW YORK AGR. Roscoe Conklin Giles, son of Dr. and Mrs. Francis F. Giles, of 1603 Pacific street, Brooklyn, graduated from the Department of School of Arts of Cornell University, receiving the degree of A. B., on Thursday, June 22, 1911. He also received a certificate from the State Board of Health at Albany, N.Y., showing that he had completed the required course by the State of New York, in Sanitary Science. Mr. Giles graduated from Grammar School No. 70, at the age of twelve years, and entered the Boys' High School, at Macey and Putnam avenues. He was the first colored boy to win the silver medal at this school. After graduating from the Boys' High School four years ago, he entered Cornell University, where he specialized in the sciences, especially chemistry, mathematics and the languages, with a view of taking up the study of medicine. He is to enter Cornell Medical College next fall, in New York City, with advanced credit. During his four years at Cornell, he was a member of the famous Cornell crew, which is the "King of the Waters," and is said to be the first colored boy that has rowed on the Cavuga Lake, in a shell belonging to Cornell University Little Rock, Ark, July 3.—The citizens of this city are making extensive preparations for the twelfth annual season of the National Negro Business League, which convenes here Wednesday, August 16. To date $1,912 has been raised for the entertainment fund, $500 of which was subscribed by the Chamber of Commerce, and the balance by the Negro citizens. Has Largest Circulation PRICE, 5 CENTS MORE COLORED POLICE FAVORED Gaynor and Waldo Declare That There Shall Be No Discrimination MUST PASS EXAMINATION Political Pull Will Not Secure Appointment for Anyone Who Wants to be a Police Officer POLICEMAN BATTLE TALKS Speaks in Highest Terms of Waldo - Praises The Age and Tells How Negroes Can Get On the Police Force Mayor Gaynor and Police Commissioner Waldo declare that they are in favor of the appointment of colored men on the police force and assert that no discrimination will made against Negro applicants. They want it to be thoroughly understood, however, that every applicant must pass the mental and physical test provided by law, and say that political pull will not secure any one a star, helmet, and a set of brass buttons. The Negro citizens of New York City who have been alleging for years that the Police Department has refused to appoint Negroes on the police force because of race prejudice, are now undergoing a change of opinion since the appointment of Samuel J. Battle a few days ago. They now say that while some of the former police commissioners may have been opposed to putting colored men on the force, Police Commissioner Waldo has demonstrated that so will be remembered that Battle was rejected last September by Cropsey, who was then at the head of the Police Department. Samuel J. Battle speaks in the highest terms of Police Commissioner Waldo, who, before announcing the colored man's appointment to the police force last week, called him into his office and said: I am glad to have such a member of your race on the police force of New York City. It is a credit to you, a credit to your race and a credit to the police force to have such a representative. Police Officer Battle on His Appointment. In speaking of his appointment to a representative of THE Age Police Officer Battle said: I am sure that there will be no discrimination made against Negro applicants deafness of securing appolition while Mr. Waldo is in office. Police Commissioner Waldo says that in order to get on the force and to get along after having been appointed one must be proficient in the duties assigned him, or, in other words, make good. Neither politics nor any organisation had anything to do with the treatment and policies will not benefit a Negro applicant much. My appointment did not cost me ten cents, except such days that I lost from my regular duties by going to take examinations from time to time. Now, any young man beetle to the school, thirty of good moral character, in sound physical condition and possessing an ordinary school training can, by diligent study, make application and pass the examinations with a good percentage. Mr. Waldo says that all names on the eligible list will be chosen according to their standing on the civil service list. I desire to thank The New York Age for the interest it has taken in me from the time I publicly announced that I contemplated taking the examination for a position on the police force, the paper having been before the Mayor the face that I was rejected some months ago by former Police Commissioner Cropsey, as well as performing other acts of friendship in my behalf. Police Officer Battle who is twenty-eight years old, and who resides at 27 West 160th street, was assistant chief of the attendant force at the Grand Central Station for a number of years. He has now started on his thirty day apprenticeship period, with forty-three others, and says his brother officers show him marked consideration, and respect. Washington, July 5. Voting the successful candidates for appointment as midshipmen in the navy who were designated last week by President Taft as candidates at large in the competition in which seventeen entered for the six vacancies was Daniel Armstrong, son of the late General Armstrong, the Civil War veteran, who founded the Hampton Institute for Colored Men and the Indian School at Hampton, Va. Young Armstrong chilled at the White House just before President Taft left the city for Beverly, personally to thank him. By an interesting coincidence while the President was chatting with Midshipman Armstrong, Booker T. Washington entered the room and was delighted to be presented to the son of his former patron. It was to General Armstrong at Hampton that Booker Washington, just escaped from slavery, made his way barefooted, and from him he received the first encouragement. Negroes Bathe Although Old Bathing Place is Taken Away From Them WILL MAKE TEST CASE Colored Bathers Can Now Be Seen On All Parts of Beach Front—Authorities Afraid to Act. Special to THE NEW YORK AGR. Asbury Park, N. J. July 5—A peculiar condition exists on the ocean front at Asbury Park this season, due to the attempt to unite in authority to shut out the colored visitors entirely from enjoyment of bathing privileges of the deep, the sea. On July 4, the large crowd, composed of white and colored pleasure seekers, witnessed the unusual spectacle of both races bathing together, a state affairs that has not existed at Asbury Park for years. The Beach Commission has in recent years provided a separate place for colored people to bathe, resorting to "Jim Crow" methods because some whites objected to coming in close proximity of the colored bathers. However, the colored people have not shown any resentment at their place for bathing, located near Seaside avenue, was the most convenient spot of all. All bathers have been compelled to pass the colored bathing place to reach their jumping off point. Last Saturday when a number of colored people had themselves to the old bathing ponds they were surprised when informed that the colored people no longer had the privilege of bathing in that area. Upon inquiring what place bathers can at aside colored visitors normally was able to give the desired information. Chairman Mitchell of the Beach Commission was arrested by a committee of Kerrys involved by Counsellor James L. Curtis, New York, and Mitchell shifted the blame at least tried to, to the leaver, at the beach who who turn charged that Chairman Mitchell was the cause of all the trouble. The maverick was also visited and he took place the blame on the chairman of the Beach Committee. Sunday afternoon a large indignation meeting was held at the Second Baptist Church and the pleasure-seekers were advised by Counsellor Curtis to bathe at any part of the beach they saw fit. It was agreed to have a test case made of the first bathe arrested So last Monday morning scores of dusky bathers jumped into the water from all parts of the beach and not a one was molested. The same state of affairs existed July 4. It is said that the authorities knowing that the Negroes intend to make the case feathery theological proceedings would very likely be in the blood of people there and are therefore letting them go.

A JU8T JUDGE Whatever other disadvantages may bear heavily upon the Southern Negro, the courts of justice have remained steadfast to the ancient moorings when dealing with him. The courts and jails, law officers of all kinds and criminal lawyers would go out of business; as every one acquainted with the situation knows, if it was not absolutely necessary now and then to send a Negro to prison in order that he might not lose sight of "his place," and if it was possible for a majority of the judges, lawyers, clerks, sheriffs and peace officers to make a living as easily in some other direction. If a jury of "his peers" could not send a Negro to jail periodically, testimony or no testimony, the jury would refuse to pay taxes to support the court house, and if a judge could not help out the dainty convict camps every six months he would lose his job. But justice tips her scales with accurate mien, and colored men invariably get what is coming to them. Georgia gives us the type of the just judge, who rules without fear and moves without favor, who knows his rights and dares to maintain them, and who thinks, along with all the great judges, that it is wholly unnecessary to take up the time of a court in establishing the guilt or innocence of a Negro before turning him over to a mob, since the crime is none the less for hanging him to a tree than for hanging him to a scaffold. The high prerogative of a Southern court is to carry out the wishes of the mob, not the provisions of the law, else how can the "dignity" of the court be maintained? Judge Charles H. Brand of Georgia declares in carrying tones the purpose of the courts. Joe Watts and Tom Allen, men accused of crime, were taken from one Georgia jail to another. The judge admitted that he knew beforehand that death would follow the change, but what of it? Was not Georgia's fair name to be protected, her honor defended? Why should he call upon the Governor for troops to protect the prisoners? Let the judge himself tell the story: While I want to discharge every duty which the law imposes upon me, I don't propose to be the engine of sacrificing any white man's life for all the Negro rapists in the country by assuming a responsibility that the law does not impose upon me. In taking this position I am in perfect accord with my conscience and my God would not imperil the life of one white man to save the lives of a hundred Negro rapists. If I had called the military and some young men among the soldiers were killed or some of the citizens of the city killed I would went forcible myself. But how did the learned and just judge know that these men were rapists? Were they ever tried? Were they ever confronted with their accusers or witnesses? The judge should not allow himself to become worked up over the lives of the "young men among the soldiers," for it would have been only necessary for the mob to have seen a bayonet or heard the march of troops. It is so with all mobs. Judge Brand was not only in "perfect accord with his conscience and his God" but also in complete and happy harmony with the Democratic party of the State of Georgia, and with the vain women of that State who fetch woe and desolation into the land by evil tongues that are false. This is the kind of a judge in the hollow of whose hands are all that make life worth while to one-third of the entire population of the South. judges who represent the dignity of the courts, and who speak for the temples of justice; prayers for the courts and mercy on the temples! The Atlanta Constitution answers Judge Brand and the sheriff of the county in these galling words. How can we continue to invite people to come here and help us develop this state, claiming that it is a law-abiding way open to this sort of thing? The other phase, that of ballot-box cowardice, was a strong contributing factor. You can preach until the crack of doom that the sworn official should be absolutely regardless of possible delivery of the box. But we are living in a human world. From the Governor to the sheiff, everybody knew the Negro Allen was in danger of lynching on the second trip to Monroe. Why were not due precautions taken? The spectator of the dreaded defight had dreaded defight if he stood between popular wrath and—let us not be misunderstood—not a Negro charged with a foul crime, but between the popular wrath and the majesty of law. Judge Brand, his friends, his sheriff and his mob, by the word of Elder Hemphill of the Richmond Times Dispatch, are soldiers in the civilization of the South which must be protected. Heaven knows it needs protection, but heaven will not protect it; for out of the whirlwind of justice will come sooner than its kings and satraps reason the destruction of it. WORK FOR EVERYBODY. We dropped in on an employment agency the other morning. The keeper of it is numbered among the best business men of New York. He has been in the business many years, and has made money out of it. He stands high in the church and not low anywhere. He is a sincere man, full of "race pride," and bubbling over with enthusiasm. The office was crowded with young people, particularly young women, looking for work for the summer. Replying to the comment upon the presence of so large a number of applicants, the head of the establishment surprised us by remarking that he could not get half the help he needs, and is anxious to secure to fill the places open for workers. Both in the city and in the suburbs well-paying places in good houses are open for intelligent and reliable young people, particularly young colored men and women, but this kind is as hard to lay hands on as the hen that laid the golden egg. There is work for everybody who wants to work, and a little exertion will secure a good job paying a good wage. This is a matter for the attention of our pulpit and others that speak to the people from time to time. Let us get all that we can, hold what we get, and prepare to get more, for a jobless people is more to be pitied than a man in the waters with a millstone about his neck. We should make ourselves efficient to fill these jobs. AND YET In certain sections of the country we have what is called disfranchising and jim-crow laws. These laws operate against all persons in whose veins may not be found 100 per cent of "white" blood, whatever that is, with all respect to ethnology. These laws were enacted because the "civilization" of the South must be protected. That it must be a poor civilization, indeed, that needs protection has never occurred to Elder Hemphill or any of the spokesmen of this particular brand of civilization. The operation of the laws is directed against Negroes because they are an indolent, vicious people, with little or no comprehension of the duties of citizenship. In support of this contention the Springfield Republican prints the following terrible indictment: Negroes appear to be rapidly taking possession of the farms of South Carolina. From 1900 to 1910 the number of farms in that State increased by 20 $25, but the number owned by Negroes increased by 11.295 against an increase of only $530 in the number owned by whites. In a number of farms 26.626 or more owned by Negroes. The number purchased by Negroes is still in line with the farms. Why shall still the Negroes not purchase a yard industrial enterprise? How disharer one is. He is a race excluded from the baller driven into dirt, and the same fare in which they pass exactly the same fare paid by "white" security ride amid luxurious white suits, denied representation in court, and in the state legal tree that protects them, corrected with the people through taxation owning and more than 96,000 farms? How can they expect to gain the respect of their neighbors or the protection of the government of their country? There are in the entire state 176,180 farms. Why do they not get hold on 170,000 of these farms and thus place themselves in a position to be allowed a breathing interest in their local and state governments, and warrant the Federal government in protecting them in their right to the baller and to represent in the elective and appointive departments of the governmental machinery. The "free North," once the conscience of the nation, what will its leaders now say in response to this manifestation of inferiority inherent in the race of Robert Brown Elliott and Richard H. Cain? Why not appoint Benjamin R. Tillman a Committee of One to teach that race how to acquire land and become free? NO PROBLEM A short while back Leslie's Weekly got out a Southern number. The many melodious material progress of the South was dwelt upon by many leading men of the only section of the country that insists upon segregating itself from the larger life of the nation. Not a line we saw with respect to the progress of a people constituting one-third, or more, of the entire population of the South. How well do we remember the burning sentence of Washington's Atlanta oration "No enterprise seeking the material or moral welfare of this section (the South) can disregard this population (colored people) and reach the highest success." But we have no quarrel with Leslie's. They run their paper to suit themselves, which is their right. C. P. J. Mooney, editor of the Commercial Appeal and co-worker with editor W. J. Crawford, contributed to the symposium. What Mr. Mooney says on any occasion is interesting, for he is a distinguished man: his pen has lynched many a man. Editor Mooney tells us that the South is free of all friction: There is no race question in the South. It has been adjusted. The white man will control, because he is about five thousand years ahead of the people in the acquaintance institution. The Negro himself will develop along his own lines. So Mooney is five thousand years ahead of Josiah T. Settle, the brilliant Memphis lawyer, is he? Well, it is a good thing to have Mooney tell us of it, for we should not have known it. Mooney is a mighty witness for his kind, but against the stern facts of history his is a weak voice. Instead of the whites being five thousand years ahead of the blacks, the blacks, in the fundamental "accomplishments of the civilization of the world," are not only many years beyond the children of Europe, but some years beyond Ireland, whose bosom Mooney thinks is the cradle of earthly glory. The Negro cannot be separated from the glory of his ancestry. "The white man will control," will he? Let him control, nobody is objecting to that, but the Negro will help him control. With Mooneys in the saddle in the South colored men would be criminals who refused to help operate their government. HAVE WE? The Pilgrims gave a dinner in London one evening last week, and oratory was as free as water. Good Dr. Depew, once a Senator in the American Congress, made a speech. It was a good one, for the Cross-Tie Poet doesn't know how to make a bad speech. The Pilgrims heard him with delight, and all London has since spoken in happy language of the effort Dr Depew threw off his mask, worn now well nigh fifty years, and confessed his holy belief in imperialism, praising Great Britain for gobbling up much of the earth, and shaking the tree of pride for his own country that has got itself all mixed up in territory in distant lands. the Pilgrims there and here were happier than either the Republic of Cuba or the present administration at Washington, we imagine, over the doctor's abandon. "We (the United States) think we have not Cuba," the doctor exclaimed, "but we have." Now there is the white flag of Truth run on the pole of imperialism by Uncle Chauncey. The protestations of years, then, mean nothing, and the platforms of political parties are so much of grammar, nothing more, according to this declaration. Though we may not occupy Cuba now we shall rule and own it in the future, shall we?

FURNISS TO REMAIN News comes from Washington that the office that Minister Furtus has been asked to withdraw his resignation and remain at his post is Amor contumet to the Republic of Haiti. President Taft and Secretary Knox of the State Department are both to be constituted upon the war decision. No better sentence to the problem could be found. Minister Furtus has rendered splendid service and has reflected credit upon his race and upon our country as the representive in Haiti, and there is no reason why so good a man should be relieved. President Taft has made a great record in rewarding merit and in carrying out this policy in reference to Minister Furtus he has still further inside the American Negro his debt. In last Sunday's Sun there was a picture of J. W Cromwell Jr. of Wash- ington who has proven himself the mathematical genius in the contest of figures which we do not understand conducted by the Sun each Sunday. Mr Cromwell is done in his glory, all competitors having given up the ghost. A chip of the old block we might say for the elder Cromwell is himself given to things of mind. If the Sun had occasion to refer to any of the women relatives of Mr Cromwell Jr. how would they be set off? The Sun seeks to fasten the word "negress" on colored women, with maice aforethought, and an accurate knowledge of the effect of it Be mindful of the fate of Lott.

Let us always look forward and in our dealings with men select those who are in the front ranks to lead us on to success and victory. - Mobile Press Now, all that reads well, and is good, but pray who was old sister "Lott?" And what happened to her when she looked "backward"? NOTE AND COMMENT A Catholic Bishop The unfounded hatred of Negroes exhibited now and then in certain sections of the South by a certain class of white men is still a puzzle to many. It is a sleepless virtue. It is a brazen thing and throws itself into politics, and charges the church. The evangelical bodies of that section, like the political parties there, are completely dominated by its powers. A few days ago a "committee of Southern gentlemen" charged the Catholic Church through its bishop, and the Independent takes delight in recording the defeat. We have watched with some interest the career of Archibishop Blenk of New Orleans since, as chaplain to Archbishop Chapelle, he went with that prelate to reorganize the Catholic Church in Porto Rico. No act of his has been more to his honor and the honor of his church than his reply to a congratulation signed by "white citizens" St. Martin de la Salle. The man him that a Negro there shot and killed two white men and wounded a third, that he was fairly tried, and that five or six of the jury were Knights of Columbus, that is, Catholics, that he was convicted and sentenced to be hanged, and that the verdict pleased the community. But certain priests of the church goodly appended to the Board of Pardons for the prison or commutation of sentence, and actually "have gone so far as to engage the services of a lawyer to handle and plead their cause", contrary to the wishes of the law-abiding citizens and in open effrontery to the honorable judge and jury before whom his case appeared." They therefore ask of the judge to expel the punishment to the doings of these priests who have ventured to mix up and drag Catholicism into judicial affairs of this nature." They conclude with the statement that "the best of our Catholic people are disheartened, discouraged and disgusted with a religion which seeks political and judicial truth and religion, and they conclude with a threat that Catholics will serve the Church as it has been served in France. This sounds as if the signers were other than Catholics. The case would be worth no attention but for the admirable reply of Archibishop Blenk. He frankly tells them that it is none of his business what they think it right to do in civil matters, and the acts complained of do not come within his jurisdiction. The priests of my diocese are under my authority only in matters of religion and Church discipline. They are and remain free men and American citizens, entitled to exercise independent freedom. He adds that if these priests think the condemned man was not fairly tried, or for any reason deserves clemency, it is their duty as good citizens to assist him in this way, and the fact of his humble standing as a Negro in the church further tells them that their complaint is quite as much of an affront to the gardening board as the action of the priests was to the judge and jury. He concludes by very properly resembling their threat. The archbishop's statement is worthy of the dignity of the priest in (O) Connell's day, who took their freedom and not their politics from Rome. 一 At last, still in the chilling sleet of Colored, he another gentle reminder that you were in the South and not in the rights which a white man proper or prince is bound to respect. A southern white man barely lives fred chicken wittmelo and oratory. The accession lodged against colored people with respect to chicken and watermelon was occasioned by the white man's fear that his own appetite for both would go unsatisfied if he were compelled to divide these precious things with his colored neighbors. Oratory's home is in Dixie, and its defenders and keepers are amongs, colored men. The Southwestern tells us of the appearance of one of the first among all the orators before a large number of Rev. W. W Lucas, D.D., Field Secretary of the Foreign Mission Board, spoke at Purvis, Miss., on the nights of June 14 and 15. On the 14th he spoke at the Methodist Church on the work of the Board of Foreign Missions. On the 15th he spoke at the county court house by special invitation of the white man of the town. The audience was made clear of thezens of that town, including the Mayor, sheriff, clerk of the court, lawyers, doctors, merchants and city officials. The court house was crowded to its utmost capacity with whites and blacks. It is said that never before in the history of Purvis has any man been give a more appreciative hearing than was given to ameliorate the feeling between the races and point out to each his duty toward the other than Dr Lucas. Dr Lucas spoke in his usual manner on the subject, "White and Black in the South." Both races acknowledge that his course of argument was the most safe course for each to pursue that they would have to face. The questionable have done good than can be measured. One person said that "the address did more good than all the sermons preached for twenty years in the way of showing the white man the true position of the thoughtful, honest and industrious Negro." Dr Lucas made prestige for himself in Paris in 1885. The speaker is exceedingly happy in speaking before critical Southern audiences, and never fails to make good POLITICAL NOTES Governor Willison of Kentucky and former Representative Games of West Virginia were visitors at the White House last week. Both expressed the opinion that their respective states would send Taft delegations to the next Republican National Convention. Gov. Willison said that he believes President Taft will be renominated by a unanimous vote. The colored voters of Chemung county are not very numerous, but they are intelligent. Therefore they ought to remember Dr. Bush, who insulted them and their race in the Acequition during debate on the "colored segment bill" Dr. Bush could have opposed the measure, if that was his mind, without seeking to degrade an entire race from whose ranks came many who fought to preserve the union when Dr. Bush was unable to do that. Senator LaFollette is behind the effort to disgrace Senator Stephenson of Wisconsin and drive him from the Senate. The tightening Senator ought to be ashamed of himself Senator Stephenson it was who brought LaFollette to the front, financed his campaign, lent him large sums of money, and made him possible as a figure both in the State and the nation. American politics has not seen for a long time such an outrageous case of political gratitude President Taft has fired the collector of internal revenue at New Orleans who used his office for political purposes. Walter L. Cohen ought to succeed to that office, for colored Republicans in Louisiana are now without representation in the larger Federal service. The President might well look about for other high men who have abused their offices for political advantage. L. B Mosely, clerk of the court at Jackson Miss., Postmaster Edwards at the place, and other Federal officeholders all over the State, who violate every rule that has been laid down governing Federal employees. Not only in this State but in almost every Southern State removed from the zone of influence at the press and contact with the wider affairs of the nation, these abuses are carried on in the open.

Nobody (From the Independent ) This is a mild case of lambing and the victim was a white man. In Ray Corm, Mr. one Khumbugh was accused of robbery and allegedly blitted it. Thereupon he was taken to a mob whipped and threatened with death until in terror he begged it. The mob then drove him out of town, few days later, and it had accrued an effort to discover Khumbugh and invite him to return had failed. Who would want to lose among such hardion? A Great Work (The Wagnerer (Okla) American) The national Negro Business Men's League, which was organized more than eleven years ago, is making a great effort to make its next meeting, Rock, Arkansas, in August next, to be one of the grandest meetings they have hold in the history of their organization. Since this organization was founded it is sorely responsible for in- stilling into our people new business ideas, methods and new inspiration to launch out in every line of business which would raise the Negro up to that standard to which he rightfully belongs. At the commencement of this league there were two Negro banks among the Negroes in this country, but by their direct influence and encouragement there are now more 655 Negro banks located generally throughout the country through capital stock ranging from $5,000 to $10,000. This bespoke wonders for the Negro National League and every member of our race should encourage this organization and accept its precepts.

"MAN FARTHEST DOWN" Comments on the Series of Articles by Boston Newton Appearing in The Outlook Interesting news, and logically, graphically portrayed are the series of articles that are being published from the purge of Dr. Booker T.

From the information gained the Doctor has have much to learn and nothing to do and obeying and emulating those proactive principles that are being taught to proactive Nurses through on the land by the recognized leader of the thick race. Dr. Booker T. Washington, Prohibition (R L) Advocate If there is one thing which one gathers from Dr. Washington's article which may be regarded as the main way of social progress and settlement in the possession of the land and energy of the people, it is the possession of the land and energy of the people. This should be studied and studied. It exist anyway in Europe in the same extent that the are found in American large land holders who control the land and destiny of the living people are found everywhere and it is possible that this alone is responsible for much of the economic prosperity. The Negro has none of the conditions to contend with except in a few scattered localities. As a rule he can buy a small farm and remain in the secure possession of it. This very opportunity would be highly prized by the laboring people across the sea. Dr. Washington's article is the eyes of the Negro to the priceless offerings offered by the color-blind South.—Durham (N. C.) Reformer. A Review of Oswald Garrison Villard's Notable Biography of Martyr. It is fitting that fifty years after the execution of John Brown a biography of him should be written by Oswald Garrison Villard, grandson of William Lloyd Garrison. Because of its exhaustive and unblessed treatment and the use of materials never before utilized this book should be widely read by every person interested in the history of slavery in the United States. This biography shows John Brown as he was without any glamour or romance. John Brown's faults as well as his virtues are depicted. Praise and blame in general are bestowed without respect or partisanship. Attention is called to the fact that here was a plain unsuccessful farmer and business man who got hold of a big idea from which nothing could divert him and the carrying out of which even death could not prevent. When did John Brown, practical shepherd tanner, farmer, surveyor, cattle expert, real estate dealer and wool mechanist first conceive what he called his greatest and principal object in life, the forcible overthrow of slavery in his native land. More than twenty years before the raid on Harper's Ferry John Brown had dedicated his life to the overthrow of slavery and in a quiet way had begun to get others to agree to use their efforts for the same purpose. It is related that about 1838 he went into a school in Torrington, Conn. After asking some questions on Africa he asked how many of the boys present would agree when they were grown up to use their influence against slavery. Two boys stood up. John Brown put his hands on their heads and said, "Now, may my Father in heaven, who is you Father, and who is the Father of the African, and Christ, who is my Master and Saviour and your Master and Saviour and the Master and Saviour of the African; and the Holy Spirit, which gives me strength and comfort, when I need it and will give you strength and comfort when you need it and which gives strength and comfort to the African, enable you to keep this resolution which you have now taken." The author calls attention to the fact that probably as early as 1849 John Brown was planning to strike a blow at Harper's Ferry. The time he spent in Kansas it appears was merely as a preparation for the Virginia raid. In the bolder warfare he had an opportunity to test himself as a guerilla leader. With the experience gained in Kansas he was now prepared to carry out his long cherished plan and so on the 3d of July, 1859, with three companions, he landed at Harper's Ferry. Great events have taken place since that summer evening fifty-two years ago. In less than three years from that date hundreds of thousands of Union soldiers were invading the South. Within four years' time the Emancipation Proclamation had been issued. Nineteen years after, that is, in 1878, a college for the education of Negroes was collected at Harper's Ferry. Fifty years after, and those for whom John Brown had sacrificed and died preparing to celebrate the John Brown like Simson complained more by his life. It was in his role to his life. It was in his role to the rose to spiritual power and the weapon of the spirit which compelled him. In his life he not only retold of his indignation but also of his life which for all its virtue many an colourless lesson. When the man of the North an amazingly brief space of themselves to their art likes compelled to a new woman to the arms it was story of liberty. Below in the battle at the sea the them not even of the desire at bay in the engine house the man on the scaffold she taking life, who inspired that regiment after regiment artillery dead, still with troops still saved, still with him is the horrible spirit that them has was admitted to the with peace as many of them was to die for the mother and the of another race. They are up all that was she had wives their children the pr happy homes and long married suffer to seas are their some tall fell in the battle upon the suffer of their enemies are the scaffold she self sacrifice And so whence the city of Charlestown follows that Charlestown will help them all. The city of John Brown follows from the spirit of despair that men are struggling to try to shrink the city of Charlestown. His slaves add subtly his mistrust with pollution or excuse will for knowledge the divine that was by the side of what was faulty and blind and wrong will cherish the memory of the prison of Charlestown in 1869 as at one sacred, a solemn and an inspiring American heritage." *John Brown: Fifty Years After Dr. Oawald Garvison Villard (Houghton, Mifflin & Co., Boston, Mass.)

M. E. Church is a term which runs a line from New York to Africa and curves and twists on its return until it encircles millions of people under many governments. To the hurried sight-seeing tourist, Mott street means nothing; Wall street is only a name and a noise. To the world, A. M. E. Church means little more than London does to a Jersey farmer, and yet it has been two score of years since there has been a President of the United States who did not know much of the inside life and some of the great men of the A. M. E. Church. The New York annual conference is going to meet in a town next fall where there is a tiny society struggling to hold its own. The people of that town have been told that the A. M. E. Church is just a little affair, poor and weak. The conference is going to convene there next year, the community will see that the tiny and struggling little society in its midst is a part of a great connection with pulses that throb clear around the world. That is why the conference goes there. There are many kingdoms in this world that fail to embrace the number of souls or control the finance that the A. M. E. Church is a little world. Within its well guarded borders there are countless events that will affect history. How few outside of the church and, indeed, how few within, know that in a quiet office in the quaint and quiet Bible House at New York is a son of South Carolina, whose drafts, bills, notes and documents of various kinds go and come from the most important centers of American and European finance? How few know that from that office has gone forth the initiative that is now transformed into solid buildings and thriving churches in lands beyond the sea? To a casual observer the Rev. Dr W. W. Beckett is but a quiet preacher-looking sort of a man, but to one who meets him and gets to know him, there is a depth of the eye at moment, a glint at other moments, a snap of the teeth, a swelling of the great square jaws, a poise and look that reveal a man of destiny. Very few men have come so quietly to the fore in the A. M. E Church with so slight announcement and so little heralding. South Carolina gave Bishop Cam to the world, gave many others, among whom stands in immortal figure, Bishop Salters, but in giving to the race a chance to size up W. W. Beckett, South Carolina has blessed this present but passing generation to an extent unsurpassed by all of her offerings of years now gone. But Dr Beckett can no longer be rated as a man of any single state, nor claimed by any single conference. His feet may stand on his native soil but his life now belongs to the wide realm of African Methodism as the shade-making boughs of a great and spreading tree belong to all that they shield. I am going to make a study of Dr. Beckett and tell the church of him. They are wrong who say that the church is without vision, that it has no ideal men in mind for bishop It has used ideals which thus far have not been dulled by inertist candidates.

A SPLENDID OPPORTUNITY Have you ever stopped to think of the opportunity you have lost? Have you watched others climb the ladder of success and envied them? Have you often wondered why it is that some people are always wonderfully successful, that everything they touch seems to turn to gold? Have you seen them buy good property for a few dollars and in a very few years get a small fortune for it? Do you know that there is only one way to ever get ahead and that is to save something every month out of your earnings. If it only five dollars, and you must manage your work and earn a dollar well invested will work for you day and night, even while you sleep? But you must invest your savings where they will be safe - what safer investment in the world is there than good, first-class real estate in a growing community? But you must be sure first that it is good. As Lincoln said, "He sure is right, then go ahead." Don't hesitate - don't delay! The one who put things off from day to day is never successful. Others reap a harvest before he sews the seed Do you know that right now there is just such a chance as you have been waiting for all your life.

WALTON THE STAR AMONG STARS WITH the beat wave engulging all citizens irrespective of wealth or station, and the question of the hour being 'Whow out it hot' colored playgrounds on find some solace during these days not truly by observing that the sun is not the only one attracting attention by reason of the red hot pace it is making there is a season of Ham, who is also casting forth some tabaceous rays in the person of Bert A. Williams, who is the lat of the Folies of 1911," which opened on the New York Roof last week. Despite the fact that Mr Williams is no longer associated with colored productions and for that matter it is not likely that he will be again soon, the members of his staff are coming in at the interest in his movements to lay aprecipating that even it is not at the head of a colored show and providing work for many colored Thespians. That his success as a performer, nevertheless, affects the race to which he belongs, either directly or indirectly. Florence Ziegfeld, Jr. has put on a show this season which is said to eclipse all previous efforts. The production is said to be larger in numerical strength and for more pronounced than his other summer shows. White comedians, singers and dancers who have successfully beamed Broadway shows in the past are appearing in the "Folies of 1911 and yet the colored comedian looms up over all in the big aggregation is the brightest star of the production, which is another evidence of what the tax can do when given an opportunity. But speaking of opportunity, who Bert Wilkins has taken advantage of the opportunity offered to shine forth as the evening star of a group of stars it must not be forgotten that someone gave him the chance to do the shining, and it is here white Florence Ziegfeld, Jr, comes in for congratulations compliments and the like. It was Mr Ziegfeld, who a year ago decided to take Mr Williams into the 'Folles' of 1910, despite the protests of a bunch of weak-kneed friends and prejudiced white performers, who excelsly informed the producer that to put a colored comedian in a show with a large galaxy) or white performers would never do, that such a step would create consternation and provoke a race controversy. Mr. Ziegfeld said "bah' bah'" to all such incendian rubbish, and signed the comedian to appear with the "Follies of 1910." Of course, there were one or two members of the company who protested to Mr. Ziegfeld against the presence of the colored performer, but the producer issued a statement that all who did not care to work in the Follies of 1910" with Bert Williams could go. V though the exhibition of such a mainly attitude on the so-called race question was unusual and shocking to the who who are used to having every protest registered against a colored person, acted upon in the alternative, there is no record of anyone having left the Follies of 1910" because of Mr. Williams' connections This season the comedian has been allowed an opportunity to display his talent to a larger extent than in the "Follies of 1910," and the crimes are unanimous in declaring that he is the principal laugh generator and that his work is the most refreshing of all. Following are a few criticisms taking upon Mr. Williams appearance in the "Follies of 1911." Then came Bert Williams and Leon Erroll in a scene at the Grand Central Station. Bert Williams, golfer, followed with some new songs. Mr. Williams' collection of modelling this season is equal to any he has had and he seems to have improved his heretofore almost perfect work. New York Times It remained, however, for that dusky vaudeville genius, Hert Williams, to make the big hit of the night. He had already been funny in Everywife', but he was side-splitting when he appeared as a 'red cap' to pilot an English tourist to his train over the almost inaccessible fastnesses of the New Grand Central station. At this dialogue, in which the tourist fell off a girder into the depths below, the audience nearly went into convulsions. Mr Williams, as usual, had some new songs, Woodman, Spare That True was enough to win his audience, but his second song, "That's Harmony", and his pantomime of a fatal poker hand brought him twice the amount of applause that any performer received during the evening - New York World The big comedy bit of the night arrived late when Bert Williams garbed as a railroad station porter appeared on the top of a steel girder toggling after him a passenger bound for a New York Central train. This travesty on conditions at the Grand Central station was a gorgeous, humorous conceit, and Williams made it crucally funny. He was at odds assisted by Leon Erroll in the sad night of the passenger Williams then rendered two songs in his immutable style, and capped the climax of a glorious night for himself by telling the story of a poker game in pantomime. Williams began to shine. Mr Williams was cast as Nobody, a sort of explanatory prologue to each scene. Whether serious grotesque or just simply funny, this dark-skinned man demonstrated again that he is one of the most finished actors on the American stage. New York Morning Telegraph The fun of the evening reached its climax in a scene supposed to depict the iron structure of the new Grand Central station. Bert Williams was a porter trying to conduct Leon Erroll as an English traveler over the girders to his train. They were tied together like alpine tourists but this precaution did not prevent the tourist from falling twice into what Mr. Williams described as "a hole," and finally losing himself altogether over the other side after his rescue. Here the quiet humor of the Negro comedian and the irritation of his Brit- lash charge trying to reach New Rochelle for dinner were so deliciously comical that the audience showed its pleasure with a noisy silencio rarely heard. Then the songs that followed grinned almost as much applause for the black actor with the fullest triumph after his pantomime representing a poker player making his last witts. These episodes were enough in themselves to make the fullness of PLL a success. New York Sun The interludes between the scenes when Mr. Burt Williams is Nobody stopped before the certain and made a few explanatory remarks were the only bright spots in this portion of the performance. A few bright lines threw a reflected light upon the ebony blackness of his countenance, and with their this king of comedians struggled willingly to put a little ginger into the proceedings. But it was very, very hard work even for him. As for the other acts Mr. Harry Watson Jr. was the only one who seemed to understand other theodiments of ethics of barbershop. Later came a selection from Pinafores and then real artists of the company Bessie McCoy. Burt Williams Leon Lirel and Tom Dunggid some other work. The convergence between Fire and Williams on the rafters of the new Grand Central station, and A Pop at the Pink Lady, who looked the second part bad merits of top notch. New York Living Sun In the advertise Mr. Williams' name does the list what it should lead all the rest, for it is a Williams show. When he makes his first appearance he gets a bigger head than any of the others in spite of the previous condition of service and when he has finished his stings work he makes the most of a White Hope on the Jordan de Paris stage is imperative as Jack Johnson is the spotted ring. It may be that the things Mr. Williams has to say are smaller than anything else in the show and perforce his stings are better than all the others. Certainly they are when he gets thinned with the Mr. Williams band, when he Mr. Williams himself who is responsible for flowing Her's vernacular for a moment you certainly got to slip to him. His sketch will be Leon Pineda top of the new New York Central station as is the best thing in the show. Later Mr. Williams stings new songs in his imminent way New York Loving Mail TELLS ABOUT LARKINS' COMPANY The following letter has been received from Manager Tom Morrison of the Picker Amusements company which explains itself To the President of the Age Wendy Christie, though our Mr. Larkin that same day performed at the technical stage of the Picker Amusements company.

THE WORLD OF SPORT ONE YEAR AGO. LOOKING backward and recalling the calumny (from a white man's standpoint), which occurred on July 4 1910 at Reno it is not difficult to remember the feeling of depression that overwhelmed many of our white braithren neither does it possess nor notting of gray matter to hard work record the dreadful and colossal products with which it will surely show in the United States. John Arthur L. White, L. 1911, Jeffrey White, L. 1911, James McGregor, L. 1911, Robert R. sided that Jack Johnson's victories used the white race to entertain a bigger report for the Negro. Echo- Johnson deflated it the white letter, in general, seemed to be puffed up with the color that color alone counted. Since the memorial count he has awakened to the fact that dignity is the direct test of any struggle for superiority. But it is in C. a Jack Johnson has done he could do more. There are boundless thousands of people in the United State, who have no besties in in deciding that of the champion would at all times con- dure itself out of the ring as admi- rally as he does while in the rope that he would do far more to amel- lize total conditions in this country Bat Masterson Rebukes Spectators. But Muster: an eight expert for the New York Morning Telegraph, and one of the most white writers that ever had a question about control fighters, comments on the actions of a number of white spectators who posted at Sum Langford, who took the pains to explain to the crowd why he had not knocked out Jack Fitzgerald at the National Sporting Club last week: It was easily seen from the very beginning that Langford was only toying with the Blowtown "Turk" Langford admitted this to be in his talk to the crowd from the ring after the bout was over. And when Langford said that if he had stopped Fitzgerald in the THE MAYOR OF BROOKLYN first round the crowd would have booted, and because he jollied him along for five rounds in order to give the members a show for their money he told the truth and should have been applauded instead of being booted by that gang of barbarians in the cheap soots. Moreover I ingford was right when he said it wasn't a decent way to treat him. But after all has been said and done what other big white dude is there in the country to day who could have done any better than Fitzgerald did? So so far as that goes Fitzgerald did not as well with I ingford as Jeffries did in front of Jack Johnson at Renegade bagging him. Here we have a country containing not a million people and yet we are confronted with a situation that is nothing short of disgustful so far as the prize ring is concerned. When Negro prizefighters have to be on over the rope after slamming their big white opponents to the floor and explain to the crowd that they could have turned the track in the first round and had they been so disposed it appears as if it were high time for the white race to set out of the fighting gate and turn over to the thanks for their explosive use. When we stop to consider that there are at least four Negro boys who glide in the fighting game at the present time all Americans too are one of whom can beat any white man in the world to say nothing of a number of Negro boys who can do likewise with the white it is a solid commentary in the white race to say the best. And yet the whites have the offensives to beat the Negros. Those who hosted Langford when he attempted to apologize for letting the Philadelphia date stay five rounds when he would have stopped him in the were engaged in a very small business in my opinion. Instead of being hosted Langford should have been applauded for his kindness and consideration. Where is the white fighter, may I ask who would show the same consideration for a Negro that Langford did for Fitzgerald? Where, as a matter of fact, is the white fighter who would not knock the bricks out of a Negro opponent so publicly and with as little distress as he possible could. Where is the fighter who did not get knocked out of a white man attached to the white fighter or attached to when he lost to a prize well before him in the fight than the fighter who did not when the fighter was attached to the white man attached to when the fighter was for So that the members were heard that they would not had to Jim Smith in stood for Lange who had been sent with Langued. That remarks me of the three who would not have been taken with whom he had been two hours. What more of them for whom he had been and was sorry he did not be taken. So that would doubt these have shown not halted so much that Lutzerd did that would not only have mounted with him and provided will plum in to the that round. And then the bombards would not doubt be agreed regards that it wasn't accurate the instead of Smith. Langford's position in the fighting knee in this country today is some- what similar to the one occupied by the Walsh. "We are age ago when he won his prime. The only way Wol- off could get a fight with a white man was to groove to either not hurt himself or the down or maybe base a fool. That is how Langford finds himself at the present time. He has other got to do business or go without work. Wolff matters not who his op- portunity might be. He is good for business, because that in the Langford feld will not be as con- did with his white opponents as he was with the Holldight thursday night. The sucker fighter who goes against the black feldman hereafter also want to get him in short order. At any rate, that is what Langford said after he reached his dressing room and he might it too.
