--- VCL. XXIV. No. 50. GOV. DONAGHEY A CONSERVATIVE Opposed to Radical Methods Advocated by Vardaman and Hoke Smith FOR LAW AND ORDER Says Lynchings are Due to the Lack of Law Enforcement and Proper Education of Races FAVORS NEGRO EDUCATION Chief Executive of Arkansas Told How He Stood on Receiving a Recent Session of Negro Business League Repeated to THE NEW YORK AGE: Little Rock, Ark., Sept. 12—Gov. George W. Donaghey, of Arkansas, who recently delivered an address before the National Negro Business League Convention which was held in this city, and who was given an ovation by the delegates, received a telegram a few days ago from the editor of the New York American, which read: "To what do you attribute the cause of the recent Pennsylvania lynching? What is the cause and what is the moral?" Gov. Donaghey wired the following reply: The cause is because of the lack of law enforcement and the proper education of the human race. The remedy would be found largely in the rigid enforcement of the law and continued education of both whites and blacks. The moral is that the Negro should come back home; he should return to the South where he belongs. The chief executive of Arkansas is not of the Vardaman-Hoke Smith type and instead of going about preaching race and class hatred, is advocating that the whites and blacks of Arkansas should live on friendly terms and that all the citizens, irrespective of color, should be educated. It was while addressing the delegates of the National Negro Business League a few weeks ago that Gov. Donaghey gave out the following impressions of the Negro: What people in all the world have themselves possessed of unfailing humor in such a high degree as has the colored man? My own people, the Irish, have that quality, but doubtless in a less degree. Indeed it is a great quality and an invaluable asset of your race. It has carried you smiling through so many hardships; it has lightened your burdens; it has enabled you to laugh in the midst of tribulation; it has wreathed your face with smiles instead of furrowed it with cares. It keeps the impossible smile about you, and preserves a happy, cheerful disposition. It saves you from worry and anxiety. While you are said to be an imitative master, you never suicide or suffer from nervous troubles. I believe it that your chairman who tells us of a young Negro in Harvard University who specialized on nervous diseases a view to practising medicine in the Mississippi bottoms. He, of course, would never have had a parental distinguishing character of our people is loyalty. Your record of faithfulness to your commandment is courage. During these times that tried men's colored men betrayed their trust in our return as soldiers from War, your fathers returned to our property and our families know of any act of disoboron—more enduring than brass marbles. Moreover, your people are blest by honor, in good, active body, satisfied for physical endurance, course another important element in the situation is that your race is the infinity; that it has been under influence of a high civilization for a short time. asons do these facts su- Should be Proud of Their Strong Bodies.

"You people are making remarkable advancement along that line, but remember what I am telling you to-day. Don't procrastinate in buying land. Don't put it off. Buy it to-day! Buy now! Buy while it is within your reach, for, in the very near future, land values will be beyond the reach of a majority of your race. I bought some cheap land myself; one of my Neare friends came to me on my purchase and finally prevailed on me, to tell him a little tract of it, which I agreed to let him have at $20 an acre, just slightly in advance of what I paid. I thought I had made a tremendous good trade with him, for, five years ago I bought that land for $15 an acre. I sold it to him on easy terms and the other day he paid me the last dollar he owed me. Now what do you thank that land is worth now? He has been offered $750 an acre for it and it is with $100 an acre for it. It simply shows you the wisdom of buying Work hard and accumulate something; don't fool away your time; don't spend too much time riding about in automobiles. "The man who makes the best citizen, the man who daily adorns society is the man who does something, who builds something, who contributes something to the support and betterment of his community and the government! Now, then, in all of these matters, you should follow the lead of your distinguished Chairman, Dr. Booker T. Washington. He has given me eloquence over my many achievements, giving this line than than other man who has undertaken to advise his race, that I know of. "The Board of Trustees of the University of Arkansas, which administers the Branch Normal for colored people, has under advisement a plan to organize that institution along the lines here indicated. We hope to be able to make of that institution a practical agricultural, mechanical domestic science and normal school for the colored people of this State. We are certain that in this effort we will have your hearty co-operation. "In closing, let me assure you of the good will and sympathy of our people. While here and there a white man may wrong the colored man, yet you may be assured that all honest and meditative movements by the colored man is greatly appreciated by the people of Arkansas." MEN'S CLUB AND PARLIAMENT. With a view to creating better public opinion among Negroes, an organization has been formed at Bethel A. M. E. Church, the Rev. Reverdy C. Ransom, pastor, which will be known as the Men's Club and Parliament. The newly formed organization will be non-political and non-dominational in character. Current and vital questions, including moral, social, political and economic, will be discussed. The parliament will hold its weekly session every Sunday afternoon at 4 o'clock. Each member will be permitted to express his views and tell what he thinks is for the best interest of the people of New York City. The first meeting was held last Sunday afternoon. NEW OFFICERS ASSUME DUTIES. Special to THE NEW YORK AGE Richmond, Va., Sept. 12—Grand Master Griffin and the newly elected officers of the Grand Fountain, United Order of True Reformers, have entered into their work of rehabilitating the order with a spirit of optimism and a determination of purpose that has instilled in the members confidence and a feeling that before many months the order once more will be on solid footing. The members of the True Reformers are also encouraged by the friendly attitude of the Bureau of Insurance, which has made it known that the state officials will do everything in their power to aid the new officers to improve conditions. An effort will soon be made by the order to pay off death claims. NEW YORK, THURSDAY. SEPTEMBER 14, 1911. OUR FUTURE GREATS IN ANNUAL PARADE-FIRST DAY OF SCHOOL CRITICAL PERIOD OF RACE Sailing Upon Troublesome Waters in Upward Struggle—Illustration on Rock Co-operation. Special to THE NEW YORK AGE Little Rock, Ark., Sept. 12.—One of the most forceful and enjoyable addresses heard at the recent National Negro Business League Convention was delivered by Prof. H. T. Kealing, principal of Western University, Quindaro, Kan. Prof. Kealing was heartily applauded when he said: "What the Negro needs, in a constant increasing degree, is the help of his own kind. I don't care how much inspiration comes to us from other sources. Self-help, self-reliance and strength must come to us from seeing what our own people are doing and what they can do." Prof. Kealing's address: Mr. President, Ladies and Gentlemen. There is one thing that is not debated from this platform (except by Bishop Cottrell, who has just preceded me) and that is eloquence. Aside from the excellent and practical speeches which have been delivered to this convention by some of our race's best business men, successful bankers, prosperous farmers, capable editors and the like, you have just had a liberal dose of eloquence administered by our learned bishop, and I will make no effort to follow in his oratorial footsteps, even if I could. I merely want to tell you, as briefly as I can what this Business League means to me, or what I think it means to the race, and what I think it means to the nation. It has, first of all, discovered us to ourselves. For fourteen years I traveled all over the United States, surprising myself at every little town and hamlet by finding unheard of Negroes who were successful in business and who were noted, in their respective communities, for their wealth, their enterprise, their public spirit and stoiling character. Influence of the National Negro Business League. When the National Negro Business League came into existence twelve years ago in the city of Boston, for the first time it brought together from the farm and plantation, from the carpenter's bench and workshop, from the store, the counting house and manufactory a number of successful members of our race for mutual help and inspiration, where they might give and get a great schooling in racial progress, where they might let each other know what progress of various kinds was being made by Negroes in their several communities, and where, in this way, each delegate could go back home and let all know what the whale race was achieving. In this way great good has been accomplished, for the Negro is beginning to find himself out, is beginning to know himself better, and to have more confidence in him self as well as more respect for his Secondly, I want to say, this league has stimulated business enterprises that were already established, and created new business enterprises among members of our race that never would have come into existence but for the direct or indirect influence of this league. Thirdly, it has stimulated the inventive genius of the Negro, so that you have upon this platform to-day the model of a cotton-chopping machine (Invented by L. D. Moore, of Little (Continued on Page 5) JOHN A. HALL REINSTATED Was Dismissed on Account of His Color-Commissioner Bribe Issues Statement Declarating That Color Should Be No Bar in Negro Holding Office and That Socialists Advocate Equal Opportunity. Special to THE NEW YORK TIMES Milwankee, Wis., Sept. 12.—John A. Hall, who was several days ago dismissed from his position in the Department of Bridges and Public Buildings b. Supt. L. J. Klug became of his color, has been reinstated by Public Works Commissioner Harry S. Reines. Mr. Hall was employed and discharged without my knowledge. So far as I have been able to learn, his work and conduct have been satisfactory to Mr. Klug. If he continues to be faithful and courteous in his work I do not see why he cannot be retained in the service. The fact that one man has a few more pigment cells in his skin than others is not sufficient ground in itself far removal from office. I am, therefore, requesting that Mr. Hall be retained as long as he wishes to remain and his work proves satisfactory. Socialists the world over advocate equality of opportunity in life. Every man has the right to work at some useful vocation to support himself and family, without reference to race, religion or politics. We believe that when the economic problems are solved, the race question will have solved itself. In the employment of men, however, the only test that the administration has used is his general fitness and efficiency in a given line of work. Alderman Joseph Carney has offered a resolution calling for an investigation of the summary discharge of Mr. Hall. MAJOR LYNCH RETIRES Ranking Negro Officer in U. S. Army Put on Retired List—Has Handled Millions of Uncle Sam's Money Without Loosing a Cent—Served as Congressman From Mississippi. Special Correspondence of The AOK. Washington, D. C., Sept. 12—On September 10, Maj. John R. Lynch, the ranking Negro officer in the U. S. army, was put on the retired list, having reached the statutory age limit of 64 years. Maj. Lynch was up to 1896, one of the triumvirate composed of Hill, Lynch and Bruce, that ran Republican politics in Mississippi. He served as Congressman from famous "shoe-string" district, and was at one time speaker of the Mississippi Legislature. So well thought of was he that the members, many of whom were white, presented him with a gold watch and chain. Maj. Lynch was appointed to the may corps of the army in 1898. He was temporary chairman of the Republican National Convention at Chicago in 1894 which nominated James G. Blaine. His last station was at the headquarters of the Department of California at San Francisco. At the War Department it is said that Maj. Lynch's record has been spotless and during his thirteen years' service in the pay corps he has handled millions of dollars without the loss of a cent. Maj. Lynch was born in Concordia Parish, La., but when 16 years of age moved to Adama county, Miss. At the outbreak of the Spanish War Mr. Lynch volunteered for service and President McKinley appointed him a paymaster in the volunteer army. He served in Cuba and the Philippines until February, 1901, when he was appointed a paymaster in the regular army with the rank of captain. In September, 1906, he was promoted to the grade of major. C. K. ROBINSON Supreme Keeper of Records and Seals, Knights of Pythias. Harlem Playgrounds to be Conducted on a Larger Scale Next Summer—Attendance of Whitingside Large. So successful was the experiment of establishing playgrounds in Harlem for childre during the summer months by the Committee on Urban Conditions Among Negroes, that the committee has announced that next summer it is highly probable that the work will be conducted for a longer period and on a larger scale. This summer Connor's Field, 142d street and Lenox avenue, was used for five weeks, and the efforts of the committee to provide a place where children could engage in helpful diversion. The playground, under the direct supervision of A. H. Hunter, was open each week during its existence from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., and had an average daily attendance of two hundred and a total attendance during the five weeks of over six thousand. The organized baseball teams increased from ten during the first week to twenty during the fourth week. Percentages were kept for the various teams, and keen rivalry continued until the last week between the various teams, each of which wished to claim the playground championship at the season's end. Other sports were enjoyed by the youngsters of Harlem, such as soccer football, putting the shot, ruining and jumping; but naturally baseball, the greatest of American sports, was the most popular throughout the season. Negroes Have Loyally Supported Committee. Apart from the satisfaction derived from accomplishing the purposes of the playground, first, the furnishing of a suitable place where the boys of Harlem could play unmolested by the police and unharmed by passing trucks and automobiles; second, the organizing of the children's play and discouraging unfairness and rowdyism, the workers of the committee have been encouraged to greater efforts by the willingness with which the colored people of Manhattan have rallied to the support of the project. With the exception of the first $25, which was given by the New York Colored Mission, every other contribution came from colored persons, including Mr. Connor's donation, the use of the field. One of the striking features of the playground was that the attendance of white boys was almost as large as that of the colored. No friction of any kind was observed between them. The need of the playground was clearly demonstrated by its frequently overcrowded condition, and the much-needed services of another supervisor could not be engaged on account of the lack of necessary funds. The neighbors and the police patrolling the district in the vicinity of the playground have declared themselves as being well pleased with the playground and its results. The project is one which deserves the earnest and liberal support of the public another year. UNERAL OF MRS. F. H. CARMAND The funeral of Mrs. Kate V. Carmand was held at St. Philip's P. E. Church, West 134th street, on Thursday noon, September 7. Rev. Mr. Daniel, the curate, officiated, assisted by Rev. E. N. Hollings, of Jamaica, and Rev. J. W. Johnson, of St. Cyprian's Chapel, and the vested male choir. Mrs. Carmand had been ill for some time and her death occurred at her summer home at Red Bank, N. J. She was prominently identified with the work of the church and its auxiliaries, having for a number of years served as treasurer of St. Philip's Parish Home. She was attended during her illness by her sister, Mrs. C. A. Attwell. A husband and son also survive her. Interment was in Cypress Cemetery.

PYTHIANS OWN MUCH PROPERTY Real Estate Holdings of Order is Now Valued at $1,500,000 MEMBERSHIP IS LARGE Supreme Kerper of Records and Seals Robinson Says Pythians Have 126,535 Members From $150,000 to $200,000 will be Expended in Building's Construction—$42,835.55 in Grand Lodge Treasury. Special to THE NEW YORK ACM. St. Louis, Mo., Sept. 12—Supreme Keeper of Records and Seals C. K. Robinson, in discussing the great progress being made by the Knights of Pythias, stated to a representative of The ACM that at the biennial mission held recently at Indianapolis twenty-six grand lodges were represented and 3,320 subordinate lodges, and that the order now boasts of having 126,535 members in good standing. The Pythians own property valued at $1,500,000. The amount of endowment collected by the order has been $1,000,263.74, and $849,478.41 has been paid out for endowment. There has been expended for sickness $236,599.07, and $101,945.14 for burial. In the Grand Lodge treasury is $42,835.55. The property owned by the Supreme Lodge is located at 3300 South street, Chicago, valued at $30,000, and the Pythian Temple Sanctuary, East Springs, Ark., valued at $25,000. The property owned by the grand lodges is valued at $764,245.55. The order has lost by death while the past two years 2,931 members. There is a balance in the Supreme Lodge treasury of $46,000. At the session at Indianapolis, the Pythian Temple Commission decided to enter at once into the erection of a temple on the property in Chicago at an estimated cost of between $150,000 and $200,000. In speaking of the Indianapolis session, Mr. Robinson said: Indianapolis Meeting Excelled ALL The meeting held at Indianapolis by far excelled any meeting of its kind, either white or colored in this country, and the local daily papers spoke in glowing terms of the orderly manner in which the delegates and visitors conducted themselves, and at the close of our session Sunday morning the following editorial appeared in the Star of Indianapolis: "It the colored Knights of Pythian, who have just closed their session in Indianapolis, all the time in such an orderly manner as they did last week, Indianapolis extends to them an invitation to hold all their meetings in Indianapolis." The uniform rank and the ladies' department made for themselves an enviable record. Over 4,500 Sir Knights were in camp, and the parade under the command of General Jackson was the most superb and grandest display recorded in the history of the Negro enterprise and organization. The Supreme Lodge is indebted and cannot repay Maj. Gen. Jackson for his work and worth in this department. We regret that the figure referring to the statistic and the financial department is complete, as several grand lodges failed to send in reports in time for the meeting, but will appear in full in the minutes. The officers of the Supreme Lodge are S. W. Green, Louisiana, supreme chancellor; Joseph L. Jones, Ohio, supreme vice-chancellor; Dr. E. A. Williams, Ohio, past supreme chancellor; the Rev. A. H. Newton, New Jersey, supreme prelate; L. M. Mitchell, Texas, supreme lecturer; John H. Young, Arkansas, supreme master of exchequer; C. K. Robinson, supreme keeper of records and scouts; A. D. Miller, Kentucky, supreme master of arms; George A. Watty, Maryland, supreme inner guard; Demetri Taylor, Florida, supreme outer guard; Dr. J. H. Ward, Indiana, medical director; T. Watkins, Illinois, supreme attorney.

Monday evening of this week a most elaborate collation was served to the usheres of the Abysalian lappet church by their pastor, the Rev. James Woot.

The church is planning to celebrate its twelfth anniversary, continuing on the 27th of October and continuing through Sunday. A grand rally of celebration is on Sunday, the day for the occasion. Friday afternoon and night of September 27 an old-fashioned southern "ox roast" will be given at the church. It is expected that Rev. Fenner, of Freechild, N. J., will prepare the roast. Bethal Notes Sunday marked the beginning of fall activities at Bethel. The day was well spent and the services largely attended. In the morning Reverdy C. Ranson, Jr., who is making a special effort to help the Sacramento, praecsed a most impolite and intellectual sermon on the "importality of the soul," or the "Life Beyond the Grave." His words were earnest, well chosen and well delivered, like a good congregation. In the afternoon Dr. Ranson and many of the congregation went over to Bridge Street Church, Brooklyn, where Dr. Ranson praecsed the communion sermon. In the evening the congregation held the pulpit at Bethel. At the close of the service a men's meeting was held in the vestry of the church, when the pastor discussed conditions necessary for the uplift of the colored race. Light refreshments were served at the church next Sunday afternoon at 4 o'clock. All men are invited to be present. Salem M. E. Church. On last Sunday afternoon a large and cultured audience gathered at Salem Lyceum to listen to addresses delivered by Richard Blackburn, a missionary to Africa, and M. C. Lawton. These women discussed work among women and girls through neighborhood clubs, and shared addresses that has ever been listened to by any New York audience. Miss Blackburn, in telling pathetic stories of her work in Africa, moved the audience to tears. She presided over this meeting and who has no peer as a presiding officer, set forth the object of the meeting in a book, and held a neighborhood club that had been organized in Harlem and the work it was doing. This with the salem by Miss Hay Tucker, completed one of the finest programs that has ever been listened to in our Lyceum. St. Mark's Church. The pulpit was filled last Sunday by the pastor, Rev. Dr. Brooks. A large and appreciative congregation was present at 11 a.m. on the morning of the coming of Christ's Kingdom. The evening service were also largely attended and the holy communion was served to 350. Withstanding the many great attractions in the immediate vicinity in very large and appreciative audience was present at the fall opening of the Lyceum and all were simply paid for their presence. Very many practiced the practice by Hon. C. W. Anderson, collector of internal revenue. Another pleasing feature was the presence of Mine Mabel Biggs, who sang two beautiful solos. Two pleasing songs were also modeled by the arts Quartet; also a paper by Mr. J. D. Nelson. On this Thursday evening Prof. W. H. Thomas will read a paper for open discussion. On next Sunday at 4 o'clock all star program will be rendered in which some of the very best local talent will take part. The Epworth League is at last beginning to organize and in planning to do the plate of work. The Floral Circle held its first full meeting on last Monday evening to consider its fourth anniversary of St Marks Church which will take place in October, of unusual importance and every member and friend is carefully urged to attend. Union Baptist Church. Our pastor after visiting the South since July 13, returned to us September 8, and first met us in a prayer meeting capacity. Our meeting room was well filled to greet With Mrs. Hims and the baby, he spent one of the most pleasant trips in his life. They were the guests of Mr. and Mrs. James Berkley, of Berkley, Va. Part of the time was spent with his uncle, where his invalid mother has been for the past year. She is suffering from paralysis. She was very cheerful. They also visited the home of Mr. and Mrs. Washington, sisters of Mrs. Hims. He visited a number of churches in recital meeting; and also the Virginia Sunday School Convention, that met with the First Baptist Church in Charleston; delivered an address to the convention which is a wing of the General Association; also visited Buckingham Co., Prince Edward, Cumberland, Amelia, Powhatan and Richmond during the True Puritan Convention; and the number of our brethren from the North, such as Dr. Geo. Morris and Dr. G. Hunt, who had become very famous and had won the reputation as the unloader of the conquest. He also has the pleasure of going to the University of Virginia, while there were 1,600 convicts the colored percentage was 72 out of a hundred. Four years ago when he was there, there were 1,400, and 80 per cent out of the population. People have reduced their criminal status over in four years. Mother Zion Pastor Holden's manner and method of preaching is vaning a deep impression. Visitors to the city make their way to mother to mother, and the mother to Sunday morning, the preached from these verses: "I am the good Shepherd, and I know my own, and mine own know me, even as the Father knoweth me and I know me." Pastor Holden preached for the sheep: "John, 18, 10, 10. Joseph the son of God and Navior of men in the preceding verses as well as in these verses," said Rev. Holden, declares himself in a man, "of these words have had and they will hear the strongest test. The Shepherd parable is strikingly beautiful; the helpful suggestions which one may receive from a study of these words between the Shepherd and his sheep and the Shepherd and the Father, see his position at the door of the sheep-fold; hear him my the porter will open to the former knows his knock. Look at the contrari We think many who heard Pastor Holder went from the church with their minds with a spirit and with a work of communion. Seven of them, Rev. H. W. Smith, D. D. of St. Michelea, Md., preached and his sermon was thoughtful and upilifting. He also preached an address to the congregation, who shared family unity, chrub unity and personal union with man and God. Each of the discourses was well received. Dr. Smith is one of the ferment hymn writers of the Sunday School and Christian Endeavor had good attendance and exercise. We observed that the leaders are full of enthusiasm and joy. The spirit in giving is sweeping through the entire church. Brother Strala and his wife gave to the church three lots. The leaders fraternity and pastor are going to give their lives to the cause of the vistors. Mrs. B. C. J. Jackson, was highly commended Mr. Hinton and Mr. F. Dyer, Ms. Maguile Johnson and Mr. C.

The attendance at St. James on Sunday showed that the people are coming back from their summer vacation. Rev. Lawton occupied the pulpit at the morning service and preached an excellent sermon, taking for his text St. Mark's 16:1. For they all saw him and were troubled. And immediately be talked with them and saith unto them. Be of good cheer; it is I. be not afraid." The Sunday School was also well attended and the lesson was reviewed by the Superintendent. Rev. O. M. Bomford, of Newark, N. J, preached at the evening service a very strong and instructive sermon: "For the Jews require a sign and the Greeks seek wisdom: But we preach Christ Crucifixion." Next Sunday Rev. Lawton will preach at the morning service. Rev. George R. Brabbham, of Indianapolis, Ind., will preach at the evening services. Members and friends are fast returning from summer resorts and the numerous visits to the association be speak increased interest in the work.

Among those present were: Mrs. Frances Keysse, Mrs. Georgia Faulkner, Miss Louiseoodrich, Miss Gertrude James, Mrs. Taylor, Miss Marjorie Jones, Miss Sarah Evans and Miss Beckwith. Another meeting will be held this Thursday evening. Sunday's meeting was well attended. In the absence of the speaker the meeting developed into a praise service. The testimonials were bright and singing inspiring. Miss Marjorie Jones rendered a solo. Miss James is again at her desk, having spent the month of August with relatives and friends at New Buffalo, Michigan, Chicago and Detroit.

Church, praised immediately on the purposes of the organization. Mrs. J. M. McLeman treated a book as sweet and beautiful. A Philip Kandolph, the secretary of the organization, was next introduced. He spoke with eloquence and reason upon the condition of attaches necessitating the residence of such an organization and the positive good it is destined to render the working Negro. A paper at labor, republic with signs, was read in face and beautiful enunciation by Mess. Sura H. Edwards, the stenographer and officer of the order. Henry Sitta rendered a selection from "Dimitri" with his usual dramatic brilliancy. After the conclusion of the program all present payfully required to the board.

Regular Correspondence of The Acm Washington, D. C., Sept. 12—Interest in educational circles is booming at the capital, due to the recent meetings of the Board of Education featured by the failure of the board to make the assignments for the year which is soon to be entered upon. The members of the board assert that they are making a thorough investigation into the present day school problems with the view of assisting the new superintendent. William Mehard Davidson, as much as possible, is possible to meet the needs of community. It is thought likely that whatever is to be done in the way of change in the schools will not be given out until next Saturday, when the new superintendent will meet his sobered teachers at the M Street High School and there address them as to his policies for the next year. It is expected that the new superintendent will insist upon a high moral code strictly applied with regard to his teaching corps and that he will insist upon the teaching of ordinary morals throughout the grammar grades and the high schools. The new trades schools, which will admit pupils who have entered the sixth grade, are expected to open at the beginning of the school year with an overflow attendance. It is likely that the principals of these schools will be former teachers in the Armstrong Manual Training or other technical high schools off this city. A delay has been occasioned at present by a decision of the controller of the treasury relating to the salary which these principals might receive, which decision in some cases would make the assignment to the principalship of one of the trade schools a demotion. The Women's Union Christian Association has just succeeded in raising 3000 for the purchase of a new home for friendless girls near Howard University. The association is arranging for a tag day, September 28, when application will be made to all of the Sunday School children in the District of Columbia for pennies to help raise a sufficient amount to clear off an indebtedness in a community. A committee in charge of the charitable work of which Mrs. Belle Nelson is chairman, has succeeded in raising sufficient funds to buy two houses adjoining a lot given to the home by a benevolent white lady several years ago. It was at first proposed that the old nurses' home at Freedman's Hospital be moved to the new grounds of the home, but this was found impracticable. The Home for Friendless Girls was founded twenty years ago and is practically the only self-supporting institution of its kind in Washington. Its trustees are Mrs. Roacta E. Lawson, president; Mrs. Kumara Kumara, vice-president; Mrs. Amanda Kennedy, vice-president; Miss Jessie Jones, Mrs. E. C. Dorsay, Mrs. Rachel Owens, Mrs. Sophie Hawkins, Mrs. Addie Brown, Mrs. Amanda Waring, and Mrs. Quander.

The persons address large crowds weekly from the wagon. An organ is carried and the favorite hymns of the denizens of the dark and blind alleys of the district are played and sung by request with much fervor. The singing is held, however, softly and sweetly and has not yet failed to draw large crowds to the meeting of the gospel wagoners. Nathaniel A. Murray and Miss Mamie L. Jordan of Augusta, were quietly married in the city garden as a treasurer Mel Murray is employed as a treasurer of the work in school gardening in the county schools where colored children receive instruction.

In his devaluable treatise on “The Citizen's Part in Government,” Senator Elihu Root, of New York. regarded as one @f the ablest constitutional lawyers in fhe country, says (page 37) “OF course voting is a fundamental ‘amd essential part of the qualified citi- en's duty to the Government of hi: wowentzy. The man who does nvi thin it worth white to exercise his fight ‘to vote for public officers, and oa such public questions as are sub- mitted to the voters, is strangely ig- @orant of the real basis of all the prosperity that he has or hopes for aed of the real duty which rests upon fim as a matter of elementary @eerals; while the man who will not @elbe the trouble to vote is a poor: epirited fellow, willing to live on the Babors of others and to shirk the hon- erable obligation to do his share ia ceturn.” Gitizenship really means just that LEADERSHIP—WHAT IS IT? Leadership is « thing that gather te itself all of the atomic fragment of human thought which seek a giver abject. and concentrate themselve gato a unit, with a designated mouth piece, 2 spokesman, « representative who becomes a magnet or a death’ * been. The great universe is made up o! Aamomerable paris. bit they speak one woice, they obey one will, the breath -of whose life permeates the whole, as swater poured into a sponge permeates md expands it. Leadership is after ~fimt sort. It stands for the unit of Qe fragments gathered into one place. It may be as silent as the wekinx or as raucons as the trumpets of Gideon which threw down the walls of Jericho. Tut it is a'ways Gastant in thought, instant in action asd faithful unt death, Whe weases to be suck it withers as apple of Sodom. And’ the tragedy of 5 tons impignes here—upon the alse food of the ego made the feater of the united fragments, mide the spokesman, the mouthpicce vie Na poleon who shakes the work! or the teree tailors of Tooley street whe shake themselves. The American people have been fortunate in the production of great Yeaders, ia war and peace, in church gad state, in labor and commerce. Lather Burbank’s seedless orange is, a great a demonstration of leader- abip in {ruitology as Edison's electric gre in chemistry, and the man who makes two blades of grass to grow where but one grew, so to speak, is a @mreater leader than the man who de- ewoys two blades. The’ doers of the ‘work are no more useful than the talkers of the word, because the last work of command is always the first word of counsel, and there is no wise execution of anything ignorantly and sashly undertaken. For a young people the American Wegro has produced many and great @eaders in the past, and has many now mfeo, i Kenerous co-operation with otef leaders, are accomplishing 2 good work. This is shown most pro- geencedly in onr church government, ia the management of ovr fraternal eréers, and im our banking develop- meat Phe Negro has learned how to co: operate with the Negro for tis best geod in everything except politics Mle still regards politics asa question ef graft and puts himself in the posi- tow of a grafter. By this token he bee Soat everything in the past and wil! recover nothing in the fature, un- jess he learn and carry into his poli- pes the same pririciple of give and ake that he carries into his church, ledge and store business. A man dis- sredita himself the moment he wants powething for nothing. and x manj whe discredits himself will nave ao wredkt with his neighbors. In politics feat is the way the Nexro has come 0 be regarded, not only by his own arty but by all parties. A political, eadership which controlled every-|. Meg in the Southern States in 1870], wd controls absolutely sothing in| #11 will take as tong to recover what | , Bae fost as it took to lose what | ted. 7 | The Negro Republicans of New York are particularly fortunate in the leadership of Charles W. Anderson, the Collector of Intezgal Revenue for the richest district inthe country. He has been their representative on the State Committee for eighteen years, not as a figurehead, but as a positive and helpfil force in the committee, nd has cared-for the Negro’s inter- ests with a devotion that is the crowning glory of “the good and faithiul servant.” Uf the Negraes of the other States had enjoyed a like leadership in the sate period of time there would be another and better story to tell, HOW CAN PREJUDICE BE LESSENED>? ‘There is a dangerous kind of preji: stice developing in the large cities of the North and West which bodes no xood to the Negro of those sections. Like most evil things on the race auestion, it started out of the South, hut it feeds mostly upon the neces: sity sensational daily’ journalism is under to magnify every bit of news that will stand it, It is the disposi- tion to educate the baser sort of the city’s population into a mobocratic temper whenever a white and a black ‘person have an altercation or a set-to. During the past year this dispnsi- tion has taken possession, very largely, of the police as well as of a certain sort of white persons, who Te: gard every Negro ay a dangerous oF suspicions person, to be watched, and oiten to be nagged into trouble. When the trouble thus provoked begins the blame is hitched on the Negro. as a matter of course, and every white man on the spot is expected to help do up the Negro. Then the sensa- tional newspaper takes a hand in the matter and a race riot is made ont of a street brawl, to the prejudice of the whole Negro population, In this wy a sentiment has been created which makes it dangerous for Negraes ty gs into certain sections af New York City without being “spotted” by che police oF goaded into tronble by med- Hecome rowdies.

Neighbour of the M. E. Church would be drawn many years. In spite of the matter to your attention here, we told of the experience of a member of our women years ago with Young Women's Christian Association.

The following are some of the institutions founded with the women, and, as one member said, the entire management under their control: It is necessary to hold at the National Assembly and vote on the motion of the Congress of the People of the United States, ratified by his mother and father of the President of the United States.

The residents took this opportunity to bid goodpeed to George W. A. Scott, honorary member of the W.A.C., who left the next day to teach at Kuskegee. Mr. Scott is a graduate of Columbia College and a winner of two Geo. W. Curtiss medals for oratory at Columbia. As a token of esteem and in recognition of the credit he reflects upon the race and Williamsbridge, the Culture Club, Lady's Home Circle, Lady's Auxiliary, Williamsbridge Athletic Club and Will non-graduate Colored Mr. Association associated Morgan Smith, which watch the race of the W.C.M.A. made the presentation speech, dwelling on Mr. Scott's struggle to obtain an education and his mother's sacrifices to assist him. The "Bridge" is proud of George W. A. Scott and wish him all success. Mr. Scott thanked them and said he would try to prove worthy of the esteem all. On Wednesday evening at Wichita Hall Pricip Sam of the Gold Coast West Africa, addressed an audience of "Bridge" residents, endowing to induct them to purchase shares in the Skum Trading Company (inc). The object of the company is to open real relations between Co. of America and United States by native and American Negroes through the exchange of African products, such as gold, rubber, cocoa, mahogany, ivory etc., for American goods. Prince Sam is president of the company and owns a large territory in Africa which pro- duces these articles. Four shares were sold. Ticket ball practice has begun and preparations are made by the W. A. C. to open the season. Miss Louise Brown, who teaches school in Virginia, is spending her vacation with her brother, Mr. W. E. Brown. Mrs. Benj. F. Brown has returned from an absence of several weeks in the Berkshire Mountains. Mrs. Charles H. D. Hodley, Mrs. Annie Boyd, and Mrs. Patrick were the guests of Mrs. Boyd, who lauded last week. Miss Annabel King, teacher at Atlanta University, is visiting John W. Stevenson. Mr. and Mrs. W. Heywood Wiley have returned from Long Island. Miss Elizabeth Davis, Miss Tillie Bibbins, Mr. William Tonnage of Brooklyn, and Messrs. Edward A. Nichols and Benj. B. Bassett of the "Bridge" spent Sunday in camp at Orchard Beach.

And then again, this league shows us the Neuro how he can take advantage of the opportunities that that bit of door is constantly distracting to him in a cowardly way, use his humble circumstance as a stepping stone to rise above and better his condition. There's a war out of difficulty, there's a war over everything, there's a war over waterful, industrial, and patient enough to find the way. Just a few days ago I came to a river where they had an old fashioned ferry. I now had a new one, the captain had to open the river in order to put on the other ships. He had his vessel program in order to start all the ships they would be on his vessel. Negro Race in a Boat Saturday night while down at Galveston, I was invited to go fishing in a sail boat. Being very fond of fishing, I sat fishing through no problem in either of the two stations. I had hardly stepped into the Boat before the wind was right astern and we went speeding out on the gulf from Galveston. After a few minutes, we began to make the day's outing, we began to make the homeward. My friend in charge of the boat soon found out that we would have to sail into Galveston harbor against the wind. Just as soon as the wind was coming back, his boat toward Galveston, he hurried her in a different direction and I wondered how we would be able to reach Galveston by following that course, we were strong and the sails were full. The boat was dashed in french glaze as if they were eager to corsipize our frull barque, but the boatman, not the least bit perturbed, cried out his orders to the crew, and every once in a while I would bear him say, Ladder Lifter. of course. I did not understand what that meant, but I could soon see the express on the boat was making for the shore, and the nearly opposite to Galveston. Then after a series of "buffering" "backing" "disagreeing" and the like, in due time we reached Galveston harbor, all safe, sound and the highest in the air of passage. Our race is likewise a race. We are sailing upon troubles in waters for this is a critical period in our upward struggle. We have set our eyes upon and are determined to reach the top, especially true of the members of this league. But notwithstanding the headwinds of opposition, or the rolling current of competition, or the trail barque of our limited resources, we have men ahead who are not afraid to "tail in against difficulties, men ahead who are not afraid of real progress and, under that Great Captain of Negro Advancement and Economic Development, Booker T.

I want to say that this institution stands for the cooperation of the Norwegians along a line that was never before established. I am a member of the defence. Also I am a member when it held meetings in various cities of this country in order to protest against wrecks and injustices perpetrated upon us, and in order to make better specifiers and addresses and pass resolutions, which never got before the public as we wanted. I finally came convinced that we were accomplishing but little if anything. Then I saw another star rising above the horizon. It was the National Neuro Business League. I saw they had gotten together Neuro Farmers, teachers, shoppers, marketers, inventors, teachers and farmers for the purpose of discussing matters of vital importance to the welfare of our nation and nation. And I believed that even the top richest nation actively and reported accurately their utterances that transported daily in their lives. The power came to them that they could learn from the experience in the process of building the information meetings. The power of self-reliance merely plausible. The power of self-reliance merely plausible. But the power of self-reliance is in a practical sense to help themselves." Negro Must Appreciate Our Strength Negro Must Appreciate Our Strength I can't believe that that kind of help did those birds any good. What those birds wanted was help from birds like the Negro wants in a constantly increasing degree, in the help of his own kind. I don't care how much inspiration comes to us from other sources, self-help, self-illiance and strength must come to us from seeing what our own people are doing and what they can do. And now, then, in conclusion, I want to do what one of my friends asked me to do by way of illustration. I refer to R. L. Smith, of Texas. I have used this illustration a hundred times to show our people the wonderful power of united effort and how little race it takes. It illustrates just how a great race it takes. It illustrates just how an operation along race lines in business is going to do for us, even though we do not control the great money markets of the world. Let me show you how the members of our race can use their money for their own best benefit, in the same time help and inspire other members of our enterprise, possibly producing Negro millionaires within a very short time.

(I am sorry, that is not a reality.) Remember there are three dollars owing in that debt, three portt t is involved, and let us so say that there is only one dollar in the book and I have that dollar (which is a pretty big supposition). Only one dollar is a calculation. Being anxious to pay my debt, I am Washington. I go to him like an honest and give him that one dollar on an account, that leaves two dollars which I still owe him. Then Mr. Washington hands the dollar over to Mr. Naples on account, leaving two dollars left on the debtlessness to Mr. Napier. Then Mr. Naples comes in and pays me one dollar on account leaving a balance due me from Mr. Napier of two dollars. Now I take that same dollar and go to Dr. Washington and I say to him, "Mr. as another dollar of the two dollar, please you, this leaves only one dollar you now." Dr. Washington goes to Mr. Washington and likewise cancels another dollar of indebtedness leaving one dollar still disc. Mr. Napier still comes to me and hands that dollar over to me leave Balance due by him to me of only one dollar as the latter stands. I owe Dr. Washington one dollar, Dr. Washington owes Mr. one dollar, and Mr. Napier owes me one dollar. Now with that last dollar Mr. Napier gave me I pay off my indebtedness to Dr. Washington, who cancels his indebtedness to Mr. Napier. Mr. Napier comes to me (like a good finance) that the is) and squares up his entire debt with that dollar.

How was it done? Simply by keeping that dollar traveling in a circle as it ought to do among members of our race. Suppose, instead of that dollar to do a man outside the circle, one what it interest in the circle, my debt would not be seen until I found another dollar, likewise the debts of others would have still remained outstanding, but what you can accomplish when you keep your dollars in proper circulation. Now you put the Negro grocer in that circle and the Negro showmaker, and the Negro furniture dealer, the Negro departmenter, the Negro doctor—put all the businesses enterprises that humanity and keep a little life in that circle, and keep a little time in that circle, and I tell you that, time a dollar goes around it will life one of you a dollar out of debt. I heartily congratulate you upon your strong and growing organization and God-speed in the good work which you do.

WALTON THEATRICAL COMMENT BY refusing to book Beulah Binford,known as the "other woman" in the celebrated Beattie case, the theatrical managers of New York City and other Eastern cities have done themselves proud as well as rendered the public a great service for good. Had the Binford woman been flaunted before the public, with the only excuse for her appearance on the stage being that she had secured notoriety by the hogshead because of her connection with the murder of Mrs Henry C. Beattie, there is no telling what the moral status of vaudeville would be in the near future. The actions of the managers in rejecting Beulah Binford will also have a tendency to encourage young stage-men who have an idea that notoriety and not art is the stepping stone to fame. From now on young women of prepossessing appearance will not be so inclined to figure in international escapades where modesty and shame are unknown and where brazenness is regarded as a virtue. While Henry C. Beattie was on trial for his life Beulah Binford left Virginia to come to New York, the promise having been made her by an enterprising booking agent that she would receive $600 weekly in vaudville. Her anginir was great when, upon reaching the metropolis, she was informed that the managers had decided that they did not want her at any price. Even the owners of small theatres declared her to be *persona non grate*. Now "the other woman" is said to be posing for a moving picture concern, but according to late reports a number of managers have announced that they do not want any Beulah Binford pictures. "Jim Crow" Law Causes Trouble. One day last week while in Pine Bluff, Ark, two female members of the Southern Smart Set Company, whose homes are in the North, were given a vivid idea of what the "Jim Crow" car law, operative in many Southern States, is like. The other members of the company also have a looser appreciation of the obnoxious measure—a law which is regarded as ridiculous, inconsistent and un-American by all fair-minded citizens. The young women were at the railroad station and upon finding the ladies' wash room for colored undergirls repairs went into the ladies' room assigned to the white women. An officer went seeing the young, colored women enter the wash room, followed them and, refusing to listen to one word of explanation, took them to the police station where they were fined $10 each. Manager Corwell was promptly notified of the farcical arrest and conviction and hurried to the police station and he was not backward about telling the judge what he thought of the piece of imposition practiced upon the girls in his company. He used such force to strip the girl from the muggery of Southern justice relating to the Negro, that the court reduced each fine to $3. The undue activity of the officer who arrested the two young women is said to have been unusual even in the South, as officers seldom arrest offenders for going into the wrong wash room. Usually the person making the mistake when discovered is informed of being in the wrong place and asked to go into another part of the railroad station. In the case of the overzealous and officious official who arrested the performers, it is most likely that his burlesque and uncalled efforts were activated by a desire on his part to show the fresh Northerners that they were "not keeping in their place." However, it is gratifying to learn that Manager Corwell reported the matter to the head railroad officials, who recommended the dismissal of the fainnant employee. Colored Usher to Stay. Patrons of Hammerstein's Victoria Theatre have noticed that for the past week the ushers of the far-famed variety house, from Chief Usher William Abernathy down, have been in an unusual jovial mood and that they have seated all holders of the little piece of cardboard with such alacrity and brightness of manner that many have inquired if the courteous knights of the cardboard were under the impression that it was Christmastide. But the ushers are well aware of the particular season of the year. However, there is a reason for their cheery disposition. The reason is this. Up to a few days ago it was rumored about that the colored ushers would be supplanted by white girls, who would be assigned to the task of directing the patrons to their respective seats. But the management concluded not to make a change, so the young colored men are jubilant and their faces anticaptions plainly indicate that they are a happy frame of mind. It is said that Willie Hammerstein is mainly responsible for the retention of colored ushers and that Aaron Kessler, who is next in command, coined with Mr. Hammerstein on the subject. The idea of installing female ushers at the Victoria Theatre was first suggested this summer when a number of young women, called "suffragettes" did duty in the evening on the Victoria Roof. So closely connected with the house suggested that the "suffragettes" be made ushers downstairs when the roof was closed, and while it appeared for a time that the management would adopt such a policy it was finally decided to retain the colored ushers. Colored ushers were first employed at the Victoria Theatre by Oscar Hammerstein several years ago. Until the LOUISE ALSTON BURLEIGH Who Has Been Gaining Distinction as a Poet at Fashionable Summer Resorts EDITED BY summer of 1910, George L. Archer was brief usher, but upon leaving New York and going abroad with his act- The Chocolate Drops—he was succeeded by George Knox. About two weeks ago Mr. Knox resigned and went to Washington, D. C. William Abernathy is now at the helm. The ushers at the Victoria Theatre enjoy the reputation of being the best in the city and of more than ordinary intelligence. Several young men have studied for medicine and law while working at the country's leading variety house. The ushers at the Victoria are: William Abernathy, chief usher; Gus Jackson, Henry Williams, Robert Jennings, John Nash, Robert Hart, Basil Hart, John Sturges, Robert Abernathy and Charles Tobias. MORE PRAISE FOR COMEDIAN Out in Chicago the dramatic crities are indulging in their annual effusions of praise over the work of Bert Williams. As usual, Ashton Stevens of the Chicago Examiner, and Anty Leslie, of the Daily News, devote most of their ink and space in reviewing the Ziegfeld show to the colored comedian. Amy Leslie refers to the big production as "Bert Williams and others," and says in part: At the Colonial Flo Ziegfeld's marvelous "Follies," labeled and living up to 1911, blinds with its splendors, delights with its unique features and altogether charms from every point of view an audience numbering many who paid as high as $20 for a seat or the seat of a pimp, to grow to greet the annual blaze of glory certain to be strewn before jaded palates wide open for folly of the Ziegfeld brand. Bert Williams, droll, quiet, self-obliterating and keenly artistic, is the big feature of the show, and the creature pink and white creatures of pulchritudinous tyrannies and fascinations proudly float about in his meek but brilliant wake. He has amazing songs, much quaint philosophy and a considerable amount more of legitimate gravity in which to display bipolar affection to an actor and entertainer. The crowning bit of delightful acting is accomplished by Hert Williams, the colored actor. With the very slims of satire put into action, he turns up to tower up of building which has interfered with traffic in New York for the best part of five years, Mr. Williams completely realizes that which is exactly the same he can easily he stands aloft and pilots to a peak of danger and an explosion a humble suburban visitor. After that Williams delivers some excellent songs, of which "That's Harder is a cliché with deeply philosophical repose and immense humor. Says Ashton Stevens: Again is Bert Williams the Kohinoor (or should it be the black diamond?) of Mr. Ziegfeld's "Follies" at the Colonial. Follies there have been all the way from 1877 until 1911, night. The last two had art in the foolish game—the black art of Bert Williams, one of the greatest comedians in character ever known to an American theatre. I was talking to John Barrymore, my friend, and he beat me praising. The Barrymore family has not been unknown to the very heat of the native stage for some generations. Its members are born to the purple of stageland. And it was the youngest of the actorial aristocrats. "I'd be proud to play in a company supporting Bert Williams." And I said that I'd be proud to write the play if I had enough wit. What isn't Bert Williams in the "Follies of 1911" is mainly take-offs of plays and places that are ecstatic. Chicago has yet to see "Everywoman," which is bursed As "Everywife." * * * What high honors are found in the performance of her in Herit, the so long have marked his songs, are in his deep-voiced prologues, with the band softly wallh the melody of his hard-buckle epic, "No-body," are again back to Bert Williams. He is a new porter in the N. Y. C. depot. Like the guide that precedes the Alp climber, Mr. Williams has an English tourist on the other extreme of the rope around his waist. Occasionally he climbs the rope and casually puts him up, and as casually drops him again. But when he drops him over the 288 feet side, the rope goes with him; there is a sodden plump from below, and then the blare of blasting. Mr. Williams has lost a fivecent tip. But he took his loss gamely, and presently he is singing "Woodman, Speak That, Tree" and "That's Harmony" and doing his inimitable draw poker pantomime. The only real Somebody of the "Fellies" is body GIVES 8UCCE88FUL RECITALS. Mrs. Loisie Alston Burleigh, whose poems have won much praise throughout the literary and artistic world, has given quite a number of successful recitals this summer. During August, Mrs. Burleigh was at Green Acre, Eliot, Me., where she was highly complimented by many college professors and lecturers from Harvard, Cornell and Yale. On September 4, she appeared with Harry Burleigh at Lake Mohony House, Lake Mohonk, N. Y., having a very exclusive audience. Among those present was a titled lady visiting this country from Edinburgh, Scotland. Her Ladyship was charmed with the poet and is planning to have her come to Scotland next year. Beside her reading, Mrs. Burleigh is preparing to publish her first book, "Kechoes From the Southland." This winter she will tour the South, reciting and singing the old Negro spirituals. Her work has been endorsed by some very prominent and influential people both here and abroad. She has been fortunate enough to secure several engagements in Europe for the spring of 1912. She has a magnetic and charming personality and deserves much credit for her splendid work. Although ON BURLEIGH in Poet at Fashionable Summer Resorts Mrs. Burleigh was born in Washington, D. C., New York is proud of her and all wish her much future success. WHITE CRITIC EMANCIPATED. S Tutt Whitney, leading comedian of the Smart Set Company, writes that the Southern critics are beginning to show more interest in colored shows and are beginning to devote more than a line or two to colored productions when they visit the large Southern cities. One critic, who is said to be one of the most rabid writers on the Negro question is said to have stopped Mr. Whitney on the street in Little Rock, Ark, one day last week after having seen the show and conversed for nearly half an hour. The conversation ended by the critic buying the comedian a cigar and he paid ten cents for it, too. The critic whom Whitney thinks has been emancipated from the bonds of race prejudice (to some extent) wrote the following review in the Little Rock Arkansas Democrat: Rattling funny from start to finish is the musical comedy styled "Newtown," put on at Kempner's Theatre as the opening attraction of the Newtown night. The production is by NEGro collaborators and is produced by a Negro company known as "The Smart Set," but this does not detract the least from the merit of yourides ache, just the same. The attendance at the opening presentation of the play was largely confined to the galleries and balcony, but the production is well worth seeing. The likes original comedy, good lyrics and above the average choral and ensemble effects. The scenic effects are exceptionally good, particularly the Indian village and the countryside village of Newtown is also well conceived. The comedy is clean throughout—much more so than many of the musical comedies put on by white playwrights and actors, but short, it is a good show without in chestnut in its joke repertoire. Salem Tutt Whitney plays the principals comedy role and he delivers the goods every time. He is the mayor of Newtown and he buys suffragettes, handiitt and a begging parson. His inaugural address stated emphatically that he would either run the town or run everybody out of town. Whitney is a born comedian and gets out of all sorts of situations. One of his most famous roles is drilling a squad of the Newtown militia, the commands being given to grunts, nods, shrimps, facial grimaces, etc. Each command is well executed, the squad putting on an interesting bit of maneuvering and his duet with Nettle Taylor as the school teacher was one of the hits of the evening. Ethel Marshall has a really attractive voice and is graceful in stage work. There isn't a bad part of her that matter and the little girl takes the part of the Indian maiden has a delightful lyrical soprano. J Homer Tutt, who takes the part of the clausty kid, Sam Jayson, does an excellent part, while the character parson, minor and minor-bottom-low all call off. The Mexican character is also satisfactorily portrayed, while the new "Mexico" song is both pleasing in melody and quite well rendered. The company carries its own orchestra, which furnishes good muscles throughout the evening, with accompaniments that indicate splendid preparatory work before the company began the season. Not so bad for a critic supposed to hate him. The Vardaman type.— Epitor's Nore. WHERE THE SHOWS ARE BLACK PATTI CO.—Avenue Theatre, Louisville, Ky.

Thornton and Long and Dessey and Neat are among the acts favorably mentioned. Williams and Brown are at the People's Theatre, Toronto, Can. In speaking of the act the Niagara Daily Record said: "Williams and Brown" team of excellent entertainers and keep the audience in roars of laughter with their witty sayings and funny remarks, and render a number of good songs. Don't miss them." . . . The Fairfaxes, a new act in the East, appeared at the Crescent Theatre last week and was easily the hit of the bill. The female member of the skit is as versatile, as she is corpulent, and she has a voice of considerable range. She also plays the piano entertainingly. The male member is rather amateurish, but should improve with age. Dockstader's Theatre, Wilmington, Del., has refused to play colored acts for years, but this week Stewart and Marshall were sent to the house and are the hit of the bill. At Monday's matinee they opened second, and at the next performance were put sixth on the bill. The Wilmington Evening Journal says that Stewart and Marshall made an emphatic hit both upstairs and down. The success of the two young colored comedians will result in other colored acts playing the Wilmington house, which is on the big time. PUMPKIN COLORED TRIO The new bill storming three that have jumped into favor almost over night made him a candidate for the governor's Grand, Chicago, which house seems to be the tyrant of houses for the big time. The act caught on its first attempt and is now being used to have the house having been booked solid for twenty-two weeks. There is nothing wonderfully strange about this to any one in the profession as a lawyer. He was a lawyer for Henry Saparo, who was formerly of the team of Saparo and Jones. After the team J. had finished a successful eastern engagement Mr. Saparo went West last spring and was not only a good performer but also proved himself a good performer on and off the stage is one of his biggest. Mr. Sidney Perrin dates back to the famed musical team of Hillman and Perrin. There is enough known of him as a writer, composer and conductor. The third member of the act—Goldie Crosby—"stands out" from the beginning of her show career. She once understudy Walt Disney in "Sons of Ham," and she can put a song over. The act will come East after its western engagements, the contract with Becker Brothers, and the contract with Becker for two. This is the first and only colored act these agents ever handled. Mac Vea Showers Praise on Mac Claim. The Ace is in receipt of a long letter from Sam Mac Vea (this is the way he spells his name nowadays) which was written by the fighter on the steamer Anglshire enroute to Australia, in which the Mac Vea goes into gestures over Billy MacClain, formerly well known in this country in colored theatricals, who now Sam's manager. I heard now Sam's manager," is the subject of Mac Vea's dissertation, and among the many things he says: In my time I have had many managers, but the most pleasant and most successful of my undertakings was to make Billy Mac-Chain my manager. I am proud of the way he goes about and arranges my business, but do anything but to into the ring and fight. He is a man of extraordinary talent, who knows how to use it. He is honest, truthful, and a door, not a dreamer. That is why I respect him. He is the only man that holds a contract with me for a term of years. Billy Mac-Chain demonstrated his managerial ability by serving as manager of director of The Theatre, Benjamin and Armes de Boeuf, Winslow, Sebastian, mastering the French and English languages, when he decided to the middle about the pictures, introduced the actors I wore a suit to Brussels to work for Baird, and I told you I was a little bit nervous of the fuss the people were making of me. I thought I should not for me. I make good money and do very well but I have a lot of worry, and as boxing and worry don't combine, I wired to bill to come to Parkle to look after my affairs with Sam Langford. He postponed his boxing show, and responded to my call. It was due mainly to MacClain that I had to fufu Langford which I would have loved not been for his valuable judgment and advice.

INSURANCE COMPANY PROGRESSING Atlanta Mutual Insurance Association Operates in Three States—Has 85,000 Policyholders and Furnished Work for Six Hundred Negroes. Expedited to THE NEW YORK AGE "The Atlanta Mutual Insurance Association is furnishing a remarkable instance of racial co-operation and progress in the gigantic strides it has made the last few years. Organized less than ten years ago with one branch office, two agents and $50 worth of insurance outstanding, it now operates in three States—Georgia, Alabama and Kentucky—boasts of having 85,000 satisfied policyholders, and the company has placed more than a million dollars worth of insurance in Negre homes, and employs more than six hundred men and women. The Atlanta Mutual Insurance Association has the distinction of being the first colored company admitted to do business in the State of Kentucky and the further distinction of having its president sign a bank check for the purchase of bonds for a larger amount than any colored man had ever before drawn. Approved business methods alone are used and the results are a high state of efficiency. The officers are A. F. Herndon president; E. W. Howell, secretary; and T. K. Gibson, general manager.

But do it wita (Kink-no-more) the greatest hat straighten, enking preparation. Kink-no-more will straighten the kinkiest kind of hair. Think about it—a preparation that all you have to do is apply it on the hair and with a little combing the hair becomes straight, not to stay for one day or one week, but to wear it for a month. Nothing else will make it kink again after it has been straightened. Kink-no-more is a wonder worker. So marvelous does it do its work that one can hardly believe their own eyes. It works like magic, and is unique because there is not another preparation from the world like it. We offer a reward of $100 for any head of hair the Kink-no-more will not straighten. Kink-no-more is a vegetable compound; it is perfectly harmless and will not injure a scalp nor hair. But a stop from falling on it will preserve. Return to hand and promote a luxurant growth of healthy hair and keeps it soft and glossy. Remember that Kink-no-more is sold under a guaranty. We will send you a money refunded. We will send to anyone on the receipt of $1.00 a regular size box of Kink-no-more, enough to straighten from one to two heads of hair.
