New Negro and Jew Members Make Trouble at Atlantic City
Before Quitting Office Mayer
Bachrach Names James T.
Bourne and Sidney Rosenbaum
Old Members Claim Appointments Were Illegible Made—Bourne and Rosenbaum in Warlike Mood.
Special to THE NEW YORK AU.
Atlantic City, N. J., July 24—They are having a hot old time in this town, and by that it is not meant that the sun is the guilty party. What is causing the tabasco situation is that before quitting as Mayor of Atlantic City last week the Hon. Harry Bachrach appointed as members of the Board of Education James T. Bourne, colored, and Sidney Rosenbaum, a Jew, in appointing the two members on the board it seems that Mayor Bachrach did not make himself a hero in the eyes of the majority of other board members; instead he is looked upon as a villain of somber hue, and an effort is being made to undo the last official act of Mayor Bachrach.
Threats of legal proceedings are being made by those who do not look with favor on the appointment of Messrs. Bourne and Rosenbaum, the irate board members contending that the two newcomers should have been put on the board several months prior the expiration of his term as Mayor of Bourne and Rosenbaum, that they were legally appointed and are on the board to stay. They promise to give their opponents a red-hot fight if any attempt is made to remove them.
James T. Bourae is a druggist and is well known in Atlantic City where he has resided for a number of years. He is qualified to serve as a member of the Atlantic City Board of Education, the colored citizen and backing him in his fight against removal. The colored voters of this famous summer resort are making themselves quite a factor in politics, and are demanding recognition. At the election held several days ago in which commissioners were elected, they are giving commissioners its first official commission government, a Negro ran for one of the commissionerships, but was defeated.
DIXON REPUDIATES NEGROES.

SPARTANBURG: S. C., July 23—The call issued by Negro Popularians for a progressive State convention next Wednesday to choose delegates to the Chicago convention on August 5 was unauthorized, according to Senator Joseph M. Dixon. In a communication to a newspaper to-day Senator Dixon says of the Negroes' call: "On its face it shows that the parties authorizing the call are not in touch with the purposes of the new National Progressive party, as the call for the convention in Columbia states that it is for the purpose of electing delegates to the Progressive Republican convention. The National Progressive party holds no allegiance or alliance with either Republican or Democratic party. Plans are now under way for a preliminary organization of the National Progressive party in South Carolina."
WHAT WILL "TEDDY" SAY?
Special to THE NEW YORK AGE
JACKSON, Miss., July 23—The bull moose party of Mississippi is to be strictly "Lily White." Announcement was made Tuesday that Col. Roosevelt's new Progressive party here will be organized in convention of August I solely as a white man's party.
This change followed closely on the cancellation of a call for a Progressive convention which was signed by both white and Negro Republicans.
B. E. Ridge of Ellisville, a life-long Democrat and father of Adjt-Gen. Arthur H. Ridge, has taken the Progressive movement to form a "Lily White" party.
EMPLOYEES ORGANIZE
NAGARA FALLS, N. Y., July 24.—The North employees of the Shredded Wheat Company have organized themselves into a welfare association for the purpose of assisting in the settlement of racial conditions. Recently the association arranged for a concert to be given at the works of the Shredded Wheat Company by the Tuskegee Institute quartet. All of the white and colored employees of the company attended the concert and attended the auditorium hall to the doors. Through its officers, the association has just forwarded to Dr. Walker T. Washington, principal of Tuskegee Institute, a check for $50 for the purpose of supporting a scholarship at Tuskegee. It is the intention to send this scholarship annually.
ODD FELLOWS MAKE SLATE
Sub-Committee Meets at Philadelphia
--Getting Ready for B. M. C.-Old
Guard Arranging to Retain Held of
Orphan at Atlanta.
Special to THE NEW YORK AGR
PHILADELPHIA, July 24—The article appearing in THE AGE fortnight ago regarding strained relations among the leaders of the Grand United Order of Odd Fellows and the trouble that the making of a slate may occasion was the topic of conversation at the meeting of the Sub-committee of Management, held here last week.
While a good deal of business was transacted during the three days that the Sub-committee was in session, a number of conferences held looking to the selection of a slate of officers to be elected at the approaching session of the Biennial Movable Committee of the Order, and the placating of those who majored in the committee. Grand Master Edward H. Morris and B. J. Davis had a long conference one night last week trying to reconcile their differences. After the conference it was whispered around that Morris would succeed Davis as chief justice of the supreme court of the order and that the latter would be the next grand master. This means that Henry Lincoln Johnson will not be the next chief justice, as previously planned. Mr. Johnson, it is said, is more concerned about the elevation of his bosom friend, Mr. Russell, than the elevation of his master, than his own. W. David Brown of New York City was trotted out as the next deputy grand master, and E. H. McKissack or Mississippi was slated for one of the grand directorshins.
William L. Houston is down for grand secretary, James F. Needham's position, and the latter will be shelved in one of the supreme court justicehips, if he will accept. The office of grand secretary pays a salary of $2,100 a year, while that of a justice, pays only $600. This may prove a snag for the Warwicks of the order, as Mr. Needham may refuse to be so easily shelved. George A. Sheehy of Florida is slated to succeed bulus C. Johnson of Baltimore to succeed teerur S. Cummings and Jesse Nicholas, Harry S. Cummings William C. McCard, or all of them, may represent Maryland on the Sub-committee. Isaac H. Nutter of Atlantic City was mentioned for attorney general of the order, in case Harry S. Cummings of Baltimore is given a berth on the supreme court.
The strained relations existing between some of the officers was noticeable in that Grand Master Morris and William L. Houston hardly spoke. Two years ago Mr. Houston was practicing law with Mr. Morris at Chicago and added all his efforts to encompass the latter as grand master. W. Henry Slaughter, whom Mr. Houston backed to succeed John C. Asaed, editor of the Odd Fellows' Journal, is also apparently at odds with Houston, and rumor has it that Frank Farrell of New Orleans will succeed Slaughter as editor.
NEW CHARGES FILED
W. D. P. Wilson of Bridge Street Church Still Seeks to Have ex-Presiding Elder Stiles Expelled—Also Charges that Pastor Cole Assaulted Him.
That the fight to have the Rev. Joseph Stiles expelled as a licensed minister of the A. M. E. Church on the charge of improper conduct, is not at an end, has been made evident by the filing of additional charges by Wayman D. Payne Wilson, a member of the Bridge Street A. M. E. Church, who resides at 78 Willoughby avenue, Brooklyn.
The charges have been filed with the Rev. J. J. Waters, presiding elder of the Long Island District, who was appointed to succeed the Rev. Stiles by Bishop Tyree at the annual conference held some weeks ago at Binghamton. The deposed presiding elder has charge of a small church in Flushing.
Both Bishop Tyree and Presiding Elder Waters have promised to look further into the charges made against the Rev. Dr. Stiles by Wilson and assert that had Wilson gone to Binghamton during the conference and backed up his charges in executive session drastic action would have been taken in the case had the charges been substantiated.
Another feature of the case is the estrangement between the Rev. Dr. Cole, pastor of Bridge Street Church, and Mr. Wilson. Several days ago the two had a heated discussion in the pastor's study and Wilson claims the Rev. Dr. Cole tapped him on the use and used insulting language, the quarrel growing out of Wilson's activity in the Stiles case. Mr. Wilson has also filed charges against the Rev. Cole with Presiding Elder Watters, charging conduct unbecoming a minister and assault.
MADE HIGHEST MARK
Illinois, N. Y., July 42—Miss Clara Oliver was the valedictorian of the class of 1912 of the Mohawk High School, which held its commencement exercises recently at Mohawk. The colored girl made the highest award in a class of ten, she being New York State's captain in scholarship for the entire four years was over 93. Miss Oliver will enter Howard University in the fall.
BIG GATHERING PRESENT
Leading Citizens Take Part in Exercises
—Proceeds from Sale of Seats Given to Charity.
In the presence of a large and enthusiastic audience and with the word "Welcome" blazing from an electric sign in the rear of the platform, Young's Casino, 134th street and Park avenue, was formally opened to the public Wednesday evening.
Following an opening address by the Rev. R. C. Ransom, in which he lauded the promoters of the enterprise, Collector Charles W. Anderson delivered the dedication address, which was full of optimism. Fred R. Moore, editor of THE NEW York Age, presided. He paid a tribute to Gideon Young for providing the only hall and casino owned by the colored people in Greater New York and one which has no equal in the North, and the most pretentious owned the country by a single man of the race.
Solos were sung by Miss Minnie Brown and Mrs. Daisy Tayley, with Melville Charlton as accompanist. A quintet, under the direction of James E. Lightfoot, also furnished music. Other members of the quintet were James W. Loquen, first tenor; Clarence Tisdale, second tenor; James Mantell, bass; Leon S. Adger, pianist.
The platform was decorated with palm and other plants.
The proceeds of the opening were donated to the Utopia Neighborhood Club, the Old Globe Church, and Hope Day Nursery, the White Rose Working Girls' Home, and the fund that is being raised to open a home for delinquent girls.
A Handsome Structure.
The structure is of Colonial design, of brick with Indiana limestone trimming with brick in 25 and 134 street and N5 feet along Park. It is fireproof and heated by steam and lighted by electricity. In the basement is a barnstool hall which will seat 1,200 diners, while the main floor contains an auditorium which with gallery will seat 2500 persons. At the main entrance is a box office for those holding balls and other affairs, and skirting along the Park avenue front is a bar 50 feet in length. The roof garden will be decorated with palms and other plants and will be the scene of light vaudeville. Fifteen-feet courts show the northern side of the building and equipment have already cost $80,000, and before "Gil" Young winds up his effort to give the race the only hall owned by Negroes in Greater New York he will have spent $100,000.
Gibson Young, owner of the casino, is one of the most enterprising businessmen in the city, and to good business ability adds the knack of being a good friend to all. He has a large circle of friends, and has been in business here for the past seven years, and before coming to New York he conducted business places in Boston, New London and New Haven, Conn.
Alex, Rogers, who will manage the casino, was for ten years with Williams and Walker. He is intertwined as one of the leading songwriters in the race. Already many organizations have made arrangements to give entertainments at Young's Casino, and the success of the new enterprise seems assured.
RAISE TUBMAN PENSION
The sixteenth annual session of the Northeastern Federation of Colored Women's Clubs was held last week at the Lafayette Presbyterian Church, Jersey City.

Keyser, principal of Daytona (Ph.) Industrial School, twenty-five dollars for the work there and the Boston Club pledged fifty dollars.
Among the speakers at the session were Dr. Lake, Mrs. R. A. Jackson, Mrs. E. J. Parker, Miss Adina C. E. Minott, Mrs. E. R. Keyser, Miss M. R. Lyons, Miss S. Elizabeth Frazier, Miss Grace Campbell and Fred R. Moore.

ST. LOUIS FIRM CLOSES.
St. Louis, Mo., July 23—The Harris and Moseley Grocery Company, one of the leading colored business concerns of St. Louis, has closed its doors, bad business being assigned as the cause by Paul W. Moseley, one of the city's most enterprising young men and president of the local business league. The grocery store was located at 3114 Lawton avenue, in the heart of the Negro district. It was opened about twelve years ago by two energetic young men—Paul W. Moseley and Lorenzo W. Harris, the latter now deceased. In commenting on the closing of the store the Central Afro-American sounds a note of warning and calls on the colored citizens to support all worthy race enterprises.
"GRAND" FATHER CLAUSE AGAIN. SIGNED TO THE NEW YORK AGE.
GUTHRIE, Okla., July 24. Democratic registration officials are refusing Negroes the right to vote under the "grandfather" clause in various sections of the State. When asked as to the legality of this action, United States District Attorney Isaac D. Taylor said: "Since the Federal Court has passed upon this question, holding the law to be in conflict with the Constitution and the laws of the United States, we are of the opinion that neither registration nor election officers can claim that the act of faith will enforcing the "grandfather clause law" against Negroes contrary to and in direct contravention of the Federal Courts on the subject."

ENUMERATION OF MULATTOES BY CENSUS BUREAU CAUSES GENEALOGICAL MIX-UP
Statistics Show That Thousands of Citizens of African Descent Did Not Class Themselves as Negroes and Referred to in Census Report Under "Foreign and Mixed Parentage"--Instructions to Negroes Confusing—Race Loses Numerically Throughout the Country—List Made Public by Census Bureau Giving Negro Population States and Various Cities.
Because the Bureau of Census at Washington insisted that mulattoes be enumerated in the last census there has been a genealogical mix-up, the Negro being the loser from a numerical standpoint.
Investigations made by THE AGE show that the statistics just issued for publication by the Department of Commerce and Labor class thousands and thousands of Negroes with what has been officially designated as "foreign or mixed parentage." Had the Bureau of Census designated all of African descent under the heading of "Negro" figures would show that Negroes constitute a much larger percentage of population.
For instance, Greater New York is put down as having a Negro population of 91,709, when, all told, there are at least 100,000 citizens of color in the various boroughs. The Census people claim that there are 22,000 Negroes in Brooklyn, although it was conceded by those familiar with the population of this city that from 27,000 to 30,000 Negroes reside across the bridge.

According to figures recently given out by the Census Bureau, but 134,191 five in New York State, divided as follows: Albany, 1,037; Amsterdam, 118; Auburn, 527; Binghamton, 635; Buffalo, 1,733; Elmira, 513; Jamestown, 108; Kingston, 630; Mount Vernon 896; New Rochelle, 1,754; New York, 91,709.

The Census Bureau in its statistics specifies the country's population under the following divisions: "Native parentages" "foreign or mixed parentages," "foreign born whites," "Negro," and "all other." Thousands of citizens in the State of New York and throughout the country have been classed under "foreign or mixed parentage," because mulattoes were enumerated, when they should have been put down as Negroes.
WHAT IS A NEGRO?
The opinion of the Census Bureau of what was a Negro and what was a mulatto was very confusing and caused thousands of Negroes who were not mulattoes to class themselves as such. The Census Bureau's instructions were that the term black included all Negroes of full blood, and that the term mulatto included all not of full blood, but who had a perceptible trace of Negro blood.
Hundreds and hundreds of Negroes who were not black, neither were they mulattoes, classed themselves as citizens of mixed parentage, being so confused by the complex instructions of the Census Bureau. Therefore, in the mentioning of these Negroes, they are put in the "foreign or mixed parentage" class.
The Negro population of New Jersey is given at 89,760, apportioned as follows: Atlantic City, 9,834; Bayonne, 561; Camden, 6,076; East Orange, 1,907; Elizabeth, 1,381; Hoboken 120; Jersey City, 5,960; Newark, 9,475; Orange, 2,479; Passaic, 535; Paterson, 1,539; Perth Amboy, 165; Trenton, 2,581; West Hoboken, 50.
Percentage of Negro Population.
Negroes constitute one-fourth or more of the total population of twenty-seven principal cities, and in four of them the proportion is more than half, namely Charleston, S. C., 31,056, or 52.8 per cent; Savannah, Ga., 33,246, or 51.1 per cent; Jacksonville, Fla., 29,293, or 50.8 per cent; Montgomery, Ala., 19,322, or 50.7 per cent.
In twelve of the large cities the Negro population is said to be as follows: Washington, D. C., 9,440; Greater New York, 9,170; New York City, 89,924; Philadelphia, 84,459; Memphis, 52,441; Birmingham, 52,305; Atlanta, 51,902; Richmond, 40,733; Chicago, 44,103; St. Louis, 40,940; Louisville, 40,522.

Predictions of Prof. Greener Census True Prof. Richard T. Greener in the spring of 1910 predicted that if mulattoes were enumerated in the census there would be a genealogical uprise. In a communication to Census Director Durand, published at the time in Two Rivers, I have to acknowledge the receipt of your letter of February 24, including citation of the Census Law. *Bostonian, Thirteenth Census Act.* "Thanking you for your prompt response, I take the responsibility of writing said section. I find no authority therein for making an enumeration of "mulattoes." There is no one color in the human species, at least, which will properly express the artifice of color. The mulatto, which is laid down as the result of the first crossing of a black and a white parent. Even supposed Southern "experts" will tell you that such progeny is often nearly as dark as the mother, often nearly as white as the father. Indeed, the rule seems to be the whiter the mother, the darker the progeny, and vice versa; hence it follows, should you insist on seeking a mulatto, that is, a cult subject, the result will, plainly be unreliable and untrustworthy.
Personally I know of muhtattoos when any ordinary observer would at once pronounce "Negro, one or the other white." I am not a white. Besides, I understand your department has already had some trouble on this question of "color," as to Java, Egyptians, Syrians, et al., concerning the color of their hair; they are "real white." The slightest sane attention paid to the subject shows it to be so uneless, so absurd, no matter what republic supposed to have been partially hope in your discretion you will not go one step beyond the strict better of the law in this enumeration of color, and "white" will not be less difficult in telling who is "black" than in correctly designating who is "white" for in this country, as many of us well known assert and maintain his assertion, and medical authorities tell us that at least seventy per cent. of the present population of America are of African extraction; there are abundant examples to sustain the statement, South and North.
Difficulty of Enumerators to Distinguish Between Black and White.
Again, who is to decide this question of color? In at least half of the cases if the person is asked as to his color, he will not be able to tell, and even when he does know, the enumerator may have doubts founded upon his imperfect knowledge of the varieties of color. He will not be asked as to what he have before suggested, and utterly unfamiliar with the varied American racial eccentricities, as to color.
Question 3. (Application for Appointment as Census Enumerator) "What is the purpose of this enumerator's purpose, it seems to me, than to accentuate more intently the determination to range the inhabitants of this country into two opposite classes, white and black, to an American applicant for office what his color may be? I find no special provision for the red colored, or the white colored, or the yellow colored man in the office. Besides, the question itself is mixed—color or race? It is a well known ethnological fact that all so-called "white" people are not of the black or brown people of the same race, even "yellow" people.
But the most serious objection which
Marion Congregational Church.
Mr. Holder's subject next Sunday morning will be "Necromancy, No. 2." in the evening he will preach on "For the Glory of God." The public is cordially invited to attend the services of the Harlem Church, which is located at 42 West 133d street. Special music has been prepared for the Sunday evening services during the summer months.
Services at St. Mark's.
Dr. Brooks occupied the pulpit and preached at both the morning and evening services to well-tilled houses.
At the morning service he spoke from the text, "to go through the gates, prepare ye the way of the people; east up, cast the highway; gather out the stones, set up a standard for the people." Isaiah 1:180.
There was a large and centrally meeting of the Men's Brotherhood on Monday night. The president, Mr. Brown, stated the object of the meeting and urged the young men to take up the work for the fall campaign.
Dr. Brooks, aided by the trustees, is putting forth every effort to make the fall rally and forty-first anniversary of the church the greatest event of its kind in the history of the church. Circulars are out announcing the heads of the different

Mount Olivet Baptist Church.
The attendance at Mount Olivet last Sunday was good. In the morning the pastor, the Rev. William Preston Hayes, preached on "Humidity." In the evening the Rev. M. W. Reddick, of Americus, Ga., filled the pulpit and delivered a most interesting and instructive discourse from the text "As For Me and My House, We Will Serve the Lord." Dr. C. T. Walker will be the speaker at Mount Olivet next Sunday morning.
Sunday was Junior Day for the B. Y. P. U., and the program was in charge of Mrs. F. R. Keyser, of the White Rose Mission.
The Sunday-school is holding its regular attendance very well for the summer. The annual excursion will take place on Thursday or next week, when the church and Sunday-school will spend the day at Empire Grove, some miles up the Hudson.
Salem M. E. Church.
Last Sunday the Rev. R. F. Fisher, of Tonnau, Conn., delivered a scholarly discourse to an appreciative audience. Job, 15th chapter and 15th verse. Subject, "Eternal Hope." In the evening the Rev. Cullan preached to a large audience. At 2.29 the Sunday-school and Young Men's Bible Class were in session. At 4.30 Miss Bertha Jones rendered a splendid musical and literary program. The principal features were delivered by the Rev. R. T. Brown, president of the Brotherhood o. St. Marks, and G. W. Hill. Last Tuesday evening the Brotherhood held a very inspiring meeting at the Lyceum. Thursday the president will be in charge. Next Sunday at the Lyceum will be known as Woman's Day, Miss Nannle Taylor in charge.

Sunday morning at 11, though stormy, our church was well attended. The Rev. J. Garris was introduced to the audience by Deacon Johnson. He used for a subject 'Christ Mighty to Save.' Those who were present seemingly enjoyed his remarks.
Sunday-school convened at 2 p.m. under Superintendent W. H. Johnson. The teacher, Mr. Evanna, one of the young men of our church who is aspiring for the ministry.
The B. Y. P. I. at 5:30 under the direction of Mrs. A. Williams, the president. The topic, 'Christian Common Sense,' which was a very interesting one, was discussed by Mr. Yates and Mrs. Evanna. The Yates was somewhat disappointed owing to the B. Y. P. I. that they were expecting the B. Y. P. I. from Mr. Clair, N. J.
At 7.30 a large crowd had gathered to listen to a sermon by Dr T. Walker, pastor of the Talebarache Baptist Church, Augusta, Ga., who was booked for the evening. The audience was greatly disappointed, as he was not present. The Rev. Garris again filled the pulpit and preached a spiritual sermon on "Trusting in God." His audience was electrified.
Abyssinian Baptist Church.
Because of the storm Sunday the audiences were small at both services. In the morning, the pastor preached on "Four Kinds of Hearers," namely, the careless, the superficial, the worldly-minded and the faithful hearers. In the evening he took for his subject, "The Christian Race." Several illustrations were drawn from the Olympic games which are now being played at Stockholm. Dr. Powell will preach morning and evening next Sunday and administer the ordinance of baptism at the evening service. The church has voted him a vacation and next Sunday will hold the month until September 1st. During the month the pulpit will be filled as follows: First Sunday, Rev. J. Edward Hurri; second Sunday, the Rev. J. E. Briggs; third Sunday, the Rev. D. W. Wisher; fourth Sunday, the Rev. S. P. Anderson.
The Sunday evening missionary concerts are becoming very popular. Mrs. Nannie Wynn will have charge of the program next Sunday evening at 6:30 o'clock, and promises to excel all previous programs.
Rush Memorial A. M. E. Zion Church
Splendid services were conducted by the pastor, Dr. J. M. McMullen, at both the morning and evening hours of last Sunday, and despite the weather, fair audiences were in attendance. The vacation school enrolled one hundred and thirty-two last week with fair proms and this week with the same. Mr. Howell and the teaching force are highly pleased with the prospect.
The J. R. Metcalf Lodge, G. F. O. O. F. will hold its annual Thanksgiving service at this church Sunday evening. July 28. The public is invited.

Monday morning we met the president and the new president, the Rev. J. J. Walton, filled the pulpit and preached a soul-stirring sermon. At 2.10 the Sunday-school met in regular session, the superintendent presiding.
The Allen League was presided over by the president, W. J. Thompson, who spoke briefly on Christian common sense.
The presiding elder again occupied the pulpit in the evening, preaching in the evening as he did in the morning a powerful sermon.
Monday night after class the first quarterly conference for the year 1912-1913 was held in the Walton in the chair. The reports showed progress in every line, spiritually and financially. From all departments there had been called nearly $2,500 for the quarter.
Fleet Street A. M. E. Zion Church, Brooklyn
The Rev: G. W. Johnson occupied the pulpit at both morning and, evening services last Sunday. It being the third Sunday, Holy Communion was celebrated in the afternoon. The Rev. R. M.

Brooklyn Y. W. C. A

Tells Viking Negroes at White House
House Republican Party Has Always
Fought for Constitutional Rights.
Special to THE NEW-YORK AOK.
Wyndham, D. C., July 23.—In addressing a delegation from the National Civil and Political Negro League in the East Room of the White House last Friday President Taft publicly acknowledged his debt of gratitude to the Negro delegates to the Republican National convention pledged and instructed for him, who so loyally stood with the Latt forces at Chicago.
"I want to say to you how much I appreciate your standing firm in my behalf at a time when it was intimated to the country that we could not depend on you. You demonstrated there your appreciation of the accomplishments of the Republican party for your race in the post, and your abiding faith in its future friendships; you stood like a cold rock" the President declared.

Comming, Mr. Taft said: "The Republican party ought to be maintained because of its useful past and its useful future. It has been the party for the maintenance of the equal rights of the Negro. It has not always succeeded in running out those rights in accordance with a letter of the Constitution, but it has accepted the responsibility, and even a member of the party who is conscious of what it ought to stand for is ready to continue the right for your constitutional rights. Recently we have had an agitation concerning an amendment to the Constitution which would allow the guarantees of life, liberty and property that we have all valued so hard, and which have come down to us from our ancestors. The Republican party has set its face like tint against any departure from a strict enforcement of these rights. Understand me, my friend, I don't mean to say that the strict enforcement of those rights has been made possible. We are not perfect. There are a great many defects—among them the defect with respect to the political rights of the Negro in the South. You have not suffered with respect to your property rights, your liberty and your life except possibly in those incidental cases of touching where prejudice has been excited, but those are comparatively few in number as compared with the 10,000,000 Negroes who are here whose property rights are maintained, whose liberty is maintained, and whose right to the pursuit of happiness is maintained.
Admits Prejudice Exists.

and all, is going to

THE CALL TO DOMESTIC SERVICE.
'Among the problems that the National Federation of Woman's Clubs, soon to meet in Hampton, should take up for discussion and make a feature of Federation interest, is the work of domestic service as it affects our women. There are so many sides to the domestic service problem that it is necessary to indicate the special phase when discussing it. The first phase is, of course, the work of the wife in the home, and the work of the daughters as helpmates of the mother and as a preparation against the time when they as wives will have homes of their own. This is the highest call to domestic service. It is the foundation of the American state. It is susceptible of infinite discussion. Every woman has ideas of home education for domestic service and what should be the character and scope of it, albeit the best people are coming to the sensible conclusion that the daughter, however wealthy, should have her education rounded out by a course in a domestic science school, like that of Pratt Institute, in Brooklyn, and such as is included in the courses of our own Hampton, Tuskegee and other institutes. The Woman's Federation could do a good service by emphasizing this phase of domestic service education, as the home life of the Negro, which depends so much upon the wife and mother, is of vital moment.
But the phase of domestic service as an occupation, as a livelihood, is also of great moment, as so many of our women, both young and old, have to take to it as a matter of necessity if not of choice. To all such the best domestic science education is of the greatest benefit and assures the best positions and wages. There are plenty of indications that Negro women are not being attracted to domestic service as an occupation as formerly and that they are not giving the satisfaction the service calls for. The reason for this condition could be considered and discussed to advantage by the Woman's Federation. A white subscriber of Titus Ace, who owns match tenement property in New York, and who resides at Christiansburg, Va., in renewing her subscription, says, among other things: "I always read the editorials of Titus Ace. We housekeepers in the South cannot for any price paid obtain competent colored servants. I pay a good price, and it is impossible to keep a servant in my kitchen. We had one cook for fifty-two years, so we are not difficult to live with. The elderly servants are married, are comfortably off, and do laundry work; the young people drift to the cities, to the mines and mining towns, and that leaves us helpless. There are but two in our family, and at present I have a maid I brought from New York, but she returns in September."
What are the causes for this condition? As we pointed out in THE ACE recently, it is said on good authority that there is a demand now in New York for 10,000 good servants, caused by white girls and women turning to factory, stenographic and shop clerk work. It is a good opening for our women who have to work for a living for themselves or to help their husbands, who cannot always make enough wages to run the house. A discussion of the question, "Are Our Women Ceasing Measurably to Help Out as Breadwimmers?" would be of general interest. What do the women readers of THE ACE think about it? We will be pleased to publish the views of any of them.
The Hon. William Lortimer of Illinois has been voted out of the Federal Senate because, it was found, his election was obtained by fraud. Mr. Lortimer must will spend the remainder of his time striving to establish his innocence.
It was a long time coming, moving slowly as all large bodies do, but it is here and the Negro must reckon with it in what he says and what he does, as the white man made friends with it on Mount McGregor, in 1885, when Gen. U. S. Grant sent out the message, one of his last, "Let us have peace!" The politics of the nation have at last become Southernized. The sectional lines in politics have been broken down; the veterans of the Grand Army of the Republic and of the Confederacy now stand upon equality in public estimation, because it is said, and the restless winds wing the saying, "They each fought for what he thought was right." So they did. But right is right and wrong, is wrong, and never the two can blend—the one that fought the nation's life to save the other the nation's life to rend! That is the Negro's viewpoint; the white man sees it the other way. A writer in the Richmond Times-Dispatch says:
Sir: Did you notice the following peculiar facts in connection with the Baltimore convention?
Champ Clark and Underwood are from Kentucky, Woodrow Wilson was born in the Shenandoah Valley of Virginia. Senator Kern is also from the same territory. William Jennings Bryan's father's people were from Culpeper county, and his mother's folks are good old revolutionary stock from Page county. (His grandmother's ancestor was a Hilliard, of Page.) Mr. Marshall is also of Virginia stock, though several degrees removed again.
Mr. Rosenvelt's mother was a Georgian. One of her bridesmaids later married the Rev. Mr. Baker, a Presbyterian minister. Mr. Baker served the Stuart congregation for many years living in the old historical mansue in that city.
It is no longer tolerable to point the finger of scorn at those who wore the Blue and the Gray and the man like Gen Daniel F. Sickles of New York, who does it has his venerable body taken hold of gently and pulled by Gen Roosevelt, whose partisan he is, with the affectionate rebuke, "My own mother was a Georgian." So the war of the Rebellion is over; the echoes of it are dying away in the largest pension taxation ever hitched upon a nation, and the three War Amendments, the substantial fruit, of the slavery conflict, are ignored by the Southern States, and jugged by the Federal Supreme Court, so that the black free man, even as the black slave, has the right all before him to make secure his position as a freeman, a man and a citizen. In the fight as a free man he has a measureless advantage over the slave man, but he has not the active, aggressive sympathy and support of the larger part of the American people. In large part he must fight alone.
During the progress of the campaign for Presidential delegates The Age emphasizes again and again the fact that the Negro and his rights were not subjects of issue, of controversy; that the nation had passed on to the consideration of other questions of vital moment; that, in the main, the white people of every section had ceased to think about the Negro and his rights and were concentrating their thought and effort on themselves and their rights. The Negro need not despair; he and his rights are wrapped up in them and their rights of the whole American people, and it is for him, as for others, to protect himself and his rights as others have to do it.
THE GAMBLERS AND THE POLICE
New York has the largest police force in the Western world, and in many respects, the best. There are few New Yorkers who do not take, or desire to take, an honest pride in its police as in its fire, health and other departments, because they equal and in many ways excel the like departments in other large cities of the country. Ignor there are evils, defects of the sort and another in all of the part of the working machinery of government, as of private and corporate business. As Alexander Pope expresses so poetically, so it is: "He who hopes a perfect thing to see hopes what not was, nor is, nor 'eer shall be.' It is sufficient that by far the larger part of it working force of any public agency is best and efficient and that there exists a public sentiment that insists that it be kept so.
The effort to locate the New York police department is from the vices it is set apart to with, restrain and, in the last analysis to suppress, when they threaten the public well being, has been long drawed out and tireless, and was never more active than now. But the effort will always be difficult, if not hopeless, of success, as long as the influences that make for vice and crime are legalized by taxation, so that the police can give no immunity to the drunkard, the strumpet and the gambler while the city, county and State license protect the saloonkeepers, the dance hall keepers, and others who pander to the weaknesses of the young and old alike, who graduate from such places into hardened vices and crimes of all sorts, filling the poorhouses, the jails, the penitentiaries and the asylums and keeping the police busy all of the time, night and day. There are too many saloons, beer gardens, dance halls and summer gardens with liquor licenses in New
York, impatient to foster vies and often in one way an demon, whose proprietors the police are sworn to protect, and make base to do because often receiving pay from them as well as the city, while their victims receive no mercy from police or magistrates. Talking, about the brutal murder of Rosenthal, the gambler, in New York. by five men, under the eyes of five policemen, all of whom escaped in an automobile because it is alleged. Rosenthal has given District Attorney Whitman evidence against the gamblers that implicated the police, the Philadelphia North American says;
But they are never fair to the foolish outsiders, who supply their profits. There is no such thing as an honest gambler. The gambler is a human hyena, without the courage of that vile heath. A hyena could not be honest without starving to death. The gambler is in business for the profits that it gives him. He could not be honest and stay in business.
The character of the business is clearly shown by the pack of dirty little jackals that follow it. the smaller fry of the fraternity, the cappers and runners, and dealers and other attaches of the gambling houses.
Who are they? Criminals, actual or potential, every one. When the gambling houses are closed these creatures turn to their other natural employments. They are snake thieves, the pickpockets, the cadets of the red-light district, the unnamable creatures who live on the wages of deprilled womanhood.
Dress gambling up in its gaudiest attire. Give it a setting of mabagoy and cut glass and chased silver, and it is still the same. Its promoters and camp followers are the same obscene blits, the same evil vultures. They feed on carrion, on human cadaver. Their aim in life is to take the money of the fools who come to them in good faith to play a game of chance. But it is no game of chance. The victim hasn't a chance in the world.
One way or another the cards are stacked against him, the machinery worked by secret switches, the "percentage" fixed so that the victim's money is taken from him just as surely as if the gamblers put their silly fingers into his pockets, and, far more snackingly and awardedly, for it is often done under the guise of good fellowship or good friendship.
We have not read a more graphic photograph of the gambler and his satellites and parasites than the North American draws. It is a deplorable fact that the large cities of the country are becoming overrun by a class of Negroes who live the fast life of "the sport" with no visible means of support, and who are, in one way or another gamblers. They gather others to them by their example, both men and women, who get tired of the steady life of the sober and industrious, and hope to get more enjoyment out of the "sporting life." Resorts grow as the patrons of them increase, so that "the gilded Negro palaces" of New York, Philadelphia, Pittsburgh, Chicago and San Francisco are growing in number and splendor year by year, calling the young and susceptible of both sexes away from the serious purposes of life to the sad end which is always a tragedy. The moral forces of society must front the wide open doors to vice and crime more and more with the commandment. "Thou shalt not!"
THE GOVERNOR OF SOUTH
CAROLINA REAL ANGRY.
Gov. Cole Blease of South Carolina is real angry, and the atmosphere all about him is hot, like himself, white heated. Even the words he uses are hot, tightening words, such as he never learned in Sunday School, words that call for more words and for some tight. The tight revolves in a circle from Columbus to Augusta, Atlanta, Charleston and Columbia. An engy of Gov. Blease put detectives on the South Carolina man, who has gone further than Senator Tillman went as Governor to encourage mob law, race hatred and race discrimination and proscription among the people of South Carolina. The detective knows all the ins and outs of the detective business, from the diagraph placed under the desk to the gum shoe expert placed at the keyhole Gov. Blease's enemy now lives in Georgia, at Augusta, across the South Carolina line, and the detective, who has a national reputation for doing things, has hawked out the Los Angeles dynamiters and the Atlantic City grafters; lives any old place just is always on the job.
The charges against Gov. Blease are that he is a graftter and bake taker. He is and to take 'take offs' from liquor dealers under the leniency law and to accept bribes for producing criminals. The scandal has so stirred up the people of Georgia and South Carolina as to overshadow the Presidential campaign and the trial of fashionable Mrs. Grace for attempting to murder her young husband, but none of the people of the two States are as stirred up as Gov. Cole Blease—the Governor ready to lead a mob to clean out a Negro school because it has white teachers, or close up a Negro college because the president of it had the manhood to rebuke him to his face. It is not necessary to anticipate the verdict, it is sufficient to await the issue and the guey play Gov. Blease promises if his enemy gets in his path; but we will not refrain from indulging a pleasure at the troubles Gov. Belase is having, simply on the theory that he has given so many others trouble.
South Carolina has fallen very low in the moral scale and in its own and the estimation of mankind since Wade
Hammond, the Congressional Namesman, walked into the State House at Columbia, and Daniel H. Chamberlain, the carpetbagger renegade and ingrate, walked out of it in 1875. The long rule of the Tillman, of whom Cole Blease is a servant, has been a byword and hissing, a starch in the nostrils of the people, which appears to have no end in sight. Like people like rulers seems to be true of the slave chivalry that has become the paralyzed blackguardism of Benjamin R. Tillman in the Federal Senate and the grafting, bribe-taking, bullyragging Cole Blease in the Governor's chair at Columbia. Let the virtuous News and Courier lift up its skirts in shame as it walks, the streets of Charleston, because the public sentiment of the State has fallen to the level of the hideous baldheaded carrion crowds that do the work of seavengers in its market places and its highways.
A COURAGE ATTITUDE.
The New York Independent can always be depended upon in season and out of season to stand by the Negro race. It has never manifested its courage and deep interest in a more signal manner than it has done in the following editorial published in a recent issue: But a more compelling reason for preferring excellent William II. Taft to excellent Woodrow Wilson is that the latter's party is persistently and notoriously false to the doctrine of the equal rights of man. In the States which it has controlled since the Civil War it has in legal and illegal ways denied and flouted popular sovereignty. It shamelessly manages to shut from the ballot a third of its citizens. For this is makes no apology, but rather defends it. It does this on the claim of white sovereignty as against popular sovereignty. It is a party of caste, a party of both tyranny and fraud. The Republican party is none too clean in this matter, for it is weary in well doing; but it has never in one single State excluded its citizens from the ballot by law or by constitutional provision devised for this confess purposes. In this we cannot and will not forgive Democracy till it shows signs of repentance.
The success of the Democratic party, with the election of its candidate for President, would put in power the party of aristocracy, the party that creates caste, the party that declares that it is not safe to trust the people that says that colored men are not fit to vote, and excludes them from the ballot. We cannot support a party that is guilty of this greatest attack on the basal principles of democracy. The Republican States allow the poorest or the blackest man to vote. The Democratic States, in the order of their party strength, disfranchise cheerfully most of their colored citizens, and, incidentally, tens of thousands of their white citizens. There is no other injustice in this country, equal to that. That is the reason that it is a rare Negro, a white blackbird, that will vote the Democratic ticket. If Indiana or Illinois goes Republican it is done by the resentful Negro vote. Let Democrats do justice to the Negro and the race would divide just as white people do. It is not agreeable to tell these ugly truths, but it is necessary, and we should not shut our eyes.
The great duty of political organization is to do justice to all the citizens, to give a fair show, a square deal, to poor people, to colored people, to working people, white and black, to hold back the hands of predatory wealth and power. North and South, East and West, and open the door of opportunity to all. We believe in trusting the people, all of them, even if they may now and then go wrong. We believe in the direct primary and the other ways by which the rule is brought home directly to all the rulers, and the power of bosses, so often corrupt, is removed. Our position is that of the Progressive wing, which is more and more in control in both parties, but chiefly in the Republican party and the Republican States; but whose application the Democratic parts and its powerful bosses limit to the financial interests of its white citizens. Give us more progressiveness, more equality of privilege, more of the square deal for both white and black. Both parties talk the square deal for all white people, but one party denies it offensively, tyrannically, to black people, and that party we cannot support in a national election, however freely we might support its candidates in a local campaign in some of our states.
All honor to the Independent. This publication ought to have a wide reading among our people each week.

SELVES
The Utopia Neighborhood Club, of whi is Mrs. A. S. Reed is President, is making an effort to raise $2,000 to be used to help maintain a home for delinquent girls. We should not ask the white citizens to do for our girls what we ourselves can do. Fifty cents from each woman in New York City will make this needed home an established fact. To all will be pleased to receive subscriptions to this fund and will publish the names of all givers. We must have this home. Who will be the first to send a contribution?

Avidators, both male and female, continue to fall out of the air onto the ground and go up no more; but thus tar no Negro has done so.
A white man committed to the Contesville, Pa. hospital became hopelessly insane when he discovered that he was housed in the room from which the mob took Zack Walker and lynched and burned him in August of last year. If bad luck following a bad action counts for anything, and the Contesvilleains are wise enough to know it it will be a long time before Contesville lynchers and burns a human being.

to sea. The rat, the cat and the dog, have served their purpose, whatever that was, in human economy, and the time is not remote when a zoological garden will be the only place where a specimen of any one of them can be seen.
The hot wave has been responsible for many queer doings of many queer people in Greater New York the past few weeks, but the queerest of the heap was the arrest of Hugo Sannier, in Brooklyn, who was found pummelling the life out of a wooden Indian which he had knocked out in front of a cigar store. Pegsha his forefathers included an Indian fighter who called him back to first principles. A great many people crazy with heat or drink show a disposition to fight wooden Indians, who when sober and sane quake in their shoes if a live Indian in a Wild West show lurches in their direction. But live Indians are rare creatures and the wooden Indian is fast fading away as an advertising allurement in front of cigar stores.
Herman Rosenthal, a well known New York gambler, was shot to death at the Hotel Metropole recently by one or more persons who escaped in an automobile. Many arrests in connection with the shooting have been made and the guilty parties may be captured and punished. Rosenthal's offense appears not to have been that he was a gambler, but he is alleged to have declared that a high officer of the police department was a partner of his in the game. It is not safe to incriminate the police or any part of it in unlawful practices, but it is being done all of the time, and the belief is general that the police system is being made the better for it. Despite his proneness to crankisms, Mayor William J. Gaynor has moved steadily for the improvement of the police system since the beginning of his administration.
The movement in Pennsylvania and
New Jersey to put two sets of electoral candidates on the regular Republican ticket does not meet with the approval of President Taft or Col. Roosevelt. The purpose of the promoter of the plan is sound enough. They desire to preserve the life of their party organizations. By giving the voters an opportunity to vote for Taft or Roosevelt electors in the same ticket the regular Republican Congress and other candidates would stand a fair chance of being elected. But both President Taft and Col. Roosevelt are favor of a straight light at the polls and with no mix-up of candidates. The third party people, under the circumstances, will place their own ticket in nomination in Pennsylvania and New Jersey. The differences between President Taft and Col. Roosevelt are so far personal as to admit of no compromise by which the Republican party can benefit
The National Prohibition party, at its eleventh annual convention, at Atlantic City, not only nominated a full Presidential ticket and reaffirmed its attitude of unrepenting war on the liquor traffic, but broadened its platform so that the party now stands for many of the issues that the other parties have mode issues. This is as it should be. The main weakness of the Prohibition party has long been its single devotion to opposition to the liquor traffic and the complete subordination of all other questions. The American people are far from being a one idea or one interest people. It has to be a question of the life of the nation to unite them under one party banner. The evils of the liquor traffic are admitted by most enlightened citizens, and the desire to restrict and curb them is more general than is acknowledged. The question is bound to grow in importance until adequate restriction and curbing of the traffic is assured by
Federal legislation through the Prohibition party or independently of it.
Representative Oscar Underwood of Albany, the Democratic leader of the House, stood third in the voting at the Baltimore convention, but went to pieces with Speaker Clurk when the bolt to Wilson began; and now he seems to be real glad that Wilson got the nomination and that he did not. The head of the average Democrat is hard to analyze, therefore it is hard to tell what is in it. Mr. Underwood visited Gov. Wilson at Trenton last week and wore a great big smile from the sides of his feet to the crown of his head. No sulks about the Underwood. "I am very much pleased to meet one from the south about whom I have heard so much," said Mr. Underwood. The way to the White House from Staunton, Va., by way of Trenton, N. J., is decidedly round about, and we are very sure Gov. Wilson will find it the most interesting and hazardous trip he ever took. Despite surface indications, there is a multitude of Democrats who are disgruntled over the outcome of the Baltimore convention.
The Supreme Court of Arizona has affirmed the constitutionality of the recently enacted state law separating the races in the public schools. The case was taken up against the Phoenix board of education by Mr. S. A. Bayerless, who contended that under the Constitution of the United States his children had a right to attend school with white children. So they have; but the Federal supreme court has overridden the Constitution by affirming in many cases that states have the right to separate white and black citizens, provided the separation is equal in the obligation and benefit imposed on both parties. The supreme court virtually maintains the doctrine that a black man has no rights which a state is bound to respect. We confess that we see no way of instilling from the supreme court's nullification of the constitutional guarantee that no state shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States."
Mr. James is a lamp Clark of Missouri, the speaker of the House of Representatives, has good reasons for sukupiring. He was the primary favorite for the Democratic nomination for President, and led the voting in the Baltimore convention Bryan slumped to Woodrow Wilson. In all the rules of the political game Mr. Clark was entitled to the nomination. He has spent a long and active life in party service and to oppose the highest office to day in the gift of the Democratic party. He is an able and clean man, as far as Democrats go, and the primary victory in his town. Gov Wilson, on the other hand, is a new man in active politics. Evan had but quittree years in active party service. He is a schoolmaster rather than a stateman thus far in his education and experience. No marvel, then, that Mr. Clark was as sloean as a wooden Indian when he called on Gov. Wilson at Sea Girt last week.

The unusual demand for rubber, which has grown up in the past three decades and the rarity of the plant has led to some of the most startling abuses of commercial greed since Edmund Burke uncovered the atrocities of the East India Company operations on the East Indies. The first scandal in the rubber business was uncovered in the Belgian Congo, in the working of the monopoly held by King Leopold, when the treatment of the natives employed in the rubber and other industries of the monopoly was such as to shock the moral sentiment of the world and compel a reformation of it. Now, an English monopoly of rubber interests in Peru is
charged with like atrocities upon the natives employed in their service, and the British Government is moving to put an end to them. It is creditable to the Christian spirit of the age that such abuses against weak people will not be allowed any where that they are exposed by enterprising journalism, missionary zeal in governmental investigation. There will come a time, when the penal abuses, lynch law abuses, and electoral abuses of our southern states will be so investigated and exposed as to compel a reformation of them.

Gov. Wilson, it is announced, will manage his own Presidential campaign, with the aid of a special committee of fourteen. He is evidently afraid that the bigwigs in his party would play him false if the campaign were left to them. Suspicion appears to be the order of the day, when every man distrusts the other. It is not a healthy condition of the social organism, and indicates decadence rather than progress in the growth of the virtues that make most for the strength and happiness of a people.

MUSIC AND THE STAGE
BY
LESTER A. WALTON
A MID-SUMMER IDEA
WITH very little doing in the theatrical world, and summer sales and alluring tourist resorts with walls of a different sort being in order, there is at this writing about as big a news drought in those parts as there are droughts in localizing where the old oaken basket is still doing duty but is threatened with a postretirement vacation, owing to the inclination of Old Sol to put in seven full days in each week for an indefinite period. With very little news stirring, and less air, there is very little incentive to spread the ink with a Jewish hand. To express your views by giving advice is usually an easy thing to do, although the value, on what you think has a career akin to the mercury in a thermometer—those agreeing with you putting your opinion at one hundred cents on the dollar, while those disagreeing placing a bargain-day estimate on your mental deductions of about ten cents on the dollar.
There are times, however, when the weather is even too torrid to give advice, so I have concluded, to indulge in a bit of panning, which is a Harlem expression for scandalizing. However, the panning stunt will be pulled off without calling names or dealing in personalities. The guilty parties will never be known unless they are indiscret enough to let the cat out of the bag.
I have been prompted to do some panning after having read a letter a few moments ago directed to the business office, which caused Fred R. Moore to remark that some people must think he is a millionaire and can run his paper on good intentions. The publisher of Tate Ack. declared that the letter was a gem for unadulterated nerve, but I contended that I had some on file that would win first prize. His letter was from an agent, my communications were from performers. I am first publishing letter addressed to Mr. Moore:
I received your letter of the lot,
in which you reminded me again
that I am indebted to you for $950
on paper account. I admit that I
owe you the money, but I can't pay
at this time, as I have been using
your money for a worthy cause. My
wife has been in NI health for a
number of years, and I am sure
that I must harry her to repayme.
Of course you know you will get
your money, and I will start sending
you something very nice.
Hoping that business is good with
you, I am.
The above letter has disturbed the usual geniality of the publisher, but I shall reproduce one or two letters to show that my disposition has been ruffled also by letters not calculated to make you look like "Sunny Jim." Some months ago, at the instance of the business office, I wrote to a performer who had been owing $3 for advertising for many months. My appeal for financial assistance was answered as follows:
Your letter reached me O. K., and I am sorry I have not been in a position to pay that bill before this. It is true that I have been working pretty steadily, but you have no idea what I have been up against. First, my mother took sick and I had to help pay her doctor's bill. Then you know I am buying a little piece of property and a male companion. By last big expense was caused by my favorite sister getting married, and you know I had to spend a nice sum on her wedding. I am just getting straightened out and will permit to you before long.
Hoping you are well, and thank-
ing you for treating me so royally,
I am. You're truly.
---
What puzzles those connected with colored newspapers is why do some, as in the case of the performer, think that it is necessary to pay all bills before the press gets financial consideration? It certainly takes money to run a newspaper. Take for instance THE Ace located in New York, with its big office rent, large salary list, spacious mechanical department, etc., it requires three times as much money weekly to operate the plant than any other colored publication, yet there are same who will pay the butcher, the baker, the candle-stick-maker and ignore for months a bill owing THE Ace.
There are others who become very angry when you press them to pay their bills. I have in mind a young man who recently handled Tux Acx weekly for his show, he acting as agent for the paper. Although bills were sent the first of each month from October until February, without him remitting a cent, he finally become highly indignant when a communication was forwarded, threatening to take up the matter with his superiors, and the following letter was received:
Mr. Lester A. Walton
The New York Age.
Dear Sir:—
Find enclosed money order for
dollars, which I am sending
you in reply to your letter of recent
date. I must say that I did not
like the tone of your letter and am
sorry that you have no confidence
in my integrity. You should know
that I did not mean to thank you
out of your money. I had some
trouble collecting money from the
people in the show. As you do not
seem to have as much confidence
in your agents as you should you
can stop sending me the paper, so
I do not care to handle it any
longer. Hopefully,
[flipboard]
P.8.—I was of the opinion that
The King is a great man paper.
It has been admitted already that the
hot weather is not conducive to writing
long articles, and I feel that I
should come to a close. Not that I have no more letters to publish; far be it from that. Do not judge from this article either that all performers become afflicted with a hape of memory when they make a bill. A thousand times so. These are many who transact their business with sentiment and dispatch. But the others?
The passing of deficient performers was done because something along theatrical lines is always expected in these columns. Quite true, I would have had a broader and more fertile field to work in had I taken up the agents of Time Act in the various cities (there being nearly four hundred of them), but I had to remain in the realm of drama.

C. V. B. A. GAMBOI
From an artistic standpoint the recent gambol of the Colored Vaudeville Benevolent Association was such a success that arrangements have been made already with the theatre managers in Philadelphia, Washington, Baltimore and Atlantic City to play return engagements next season, which agreement was entered into at the solicitation of the managers themselves.
The show given by the vaudevillians was of such an entertaining nature that the managers have guaranteed them crowded houses on their next gambol. The C. V. R. A. members left New York on a private car, opening Wednesday, July 17, at Fitzgerald's Auditorium, Atlantic City. The following evening a show was given at the Standard Theatre, Philadelphia, and on Friday evening they hold forth at the Holiday Street Theatre, Baltimore. The number

WHITE IS AS WHITE DOES
To the Dramatic Editor of The Age:
The writer in last Saturday's Review,
speaking of Ziegfeld's Follies and its
colored star, Bert Williams, stated as
the reason why Ziegfeld has not produced his Follies this season was because he had not been able to white performers to work under this colored man, the star of the Follies. The writer in The Review knows why Ziegfeld did not put on the Follies this summer as does every man and woman in the profession, and every man and woman the world over that no man who whistles should be asked to kill. Would a showmaker or a tailor or a butcher open a store next to the one who has to sell the goods? It was never done in the history of business and that is why Ziegfeld did not put on the Follies, because he had one shop going successfully in the same building where he would have had to put on the Follies.
No white performer or cheerful girl ever had to face the feel they sacrificed their self respect by working; in the same company with Bert Williams. Several years ago in Chicago circumstances caused me to introduce Bert Williams to some southern ladies who had come to see a performance of the Williams and Walker Company. During the few minutes conversation one of the ladies of the real southern aristocratic type addressed him as "Mr. Williams." She told me afterwards that he was the first Negro she had ever called mister. I asked her why she did it. She replied because I recognized in him a real man and a gentleman, and this made me forget my prejudice and hatred, and for the reason no manager has ever had any trouble because of the dark brown of Bert Williams' skin.
When Williams was under the direction of F. Ray Comstock and Morris Geit, these gentlemen treated Williams as they did any other business associate. No reference was ever made to his color. He was also treated with the same deference and respect when he had occasion to meet Messrs. Lee and Comstock, and the work interested with Comstock and Comstock enterprise that Bert Williams was interested in with F. Ray Comstock lost $8,000. Mr. Williams paid his share of the losses dollar, for dollar. That's being white because it's doing right, and is nearer being a white man than a certain blonde vaudeville agent who borrowed several years ago $50 of Williams & Walker, giving his due bill for it. I still hold that due bill. There is a big blonde newspaper man who gave a $100 bill for $100 and a check for $100 bill as also several years ago. Neither bill was paid, yet these men pass for white because of the color of their skin.
When Bert Williams' partner, George Walker, was stricken with his death illness, after he had spent all of his own money, Mr. Williams worked and shared liberally with his sick associate. I paid to Mr. Walker the first summer of his illness, $600, and during the following season, sent him a check for $50 every week. All of this was Bert Williams' money. The next summer, and until Walker died he received the same liberal allowance, and when he died his body was sent to Lawrence, Kan., his home, and buried without regard to cost. Most people will agree that this was white treatment. Several years ago Williams & Walker were playing the Grand Opera House in San Francisco. Christmas came in one of the weeks, and we had a Christmas tree for the members, a dance for the members, a pany and their friends both colored, Mr. Anderson, and
part owner of the Opera House and a real gentleman was among those who were present. After the presents had been distributed and the festivities had been going on for some time, I missed Mr. Wilkins. I went to look for him and found him in his dressroom room reading a volume of Emerson's essays. "Can any man read Emerson and not be white?" What is the difference between the English girl sittin' to a sheet of England looking toward to its knees, when asked where she was sitting, and an amok looking toward the house of Emerson for Lord伏特斯? "Nothing but the shade of their skin, they both were white at heart, because they both communed with Emerson, "As a man thinks, so is he," the Good Book says, and "as a man reads, so he will think" Emerson's essays is not the only good Book in Mr. Williams' library.
I was manager of the Williams & Walker Company for six years, and of the Bert Williams Company one year. I do not recall one instance or circumstance in all of these years that caused me to regret or blush because of my association with these men and their company, and I am positive that any white lady or gentleman whom conditions and the circumstances that direct our lives in this profession of curs, caused to be associated in any of our company, will be the same for Williams is in or with need even four that they will have cause for regret on his account. Let all men and women sustain with pride the respectability of their ancestors. I am proud that I was born in the diamond state of Delaware. A blue hen's chicken of Holland Dutch and English ancestors. Bert Williams has the same right to be proud, his father and mother were honorable people of honorable parentage. He can point with pride to the two generations that he has known and let us all keep in mind, especially the writer of this article in The Review to which I take exception, that their was a standard set up over 2,000 years ago by the carpenter's son and this standard was not the color of a man's skin, that gave him the right to control with the intent to harm any other human being. It is a good thing to sometimes read this old Jew book, so that we may have in mind some of its teachings and precepts when thinking of or speaking of others.

This coming Saturday afternoon at Amherst League Park, Broadway and 107:10 the Royal Giants and the Lineman will play in the second game of the season at the eastern colored championship. The game will be called at 3:30 o'clock.
On July 4 the two teams played the first game of the season, and the Royal Giants won, 11 to 9. The Lincoln have been accused of stealing a return match to even up matters, while the Royal Giants say that they will defeat the Lincoln in a second time to prove that the first victory was not duke. A red-lot game is anticipated and a large portion of the team will be depopulated for several hours Saturday afternoon.

Buses and buses of some bus companies leagues throughout the country, as well as officers of local barge business leagues, are badly damaged arranging for special Pullman, tourist or chair car accommodations for delegates who plan to attend the thirteenth annual meeting of the National Negro Business League, held Wednesday, Thursday and Friday, August 21, 22 and 23. It has been found that the passenger
events of the railroads are disposed to heartily co-operate in making such arrangements for delegates. The following recommendations are made for the benefit of those who have not already made plans for their state or local delegations. In all cases make the special Pullman or tourist car party a personally conducted affair. Select the most attractive route for the going trip to Chicago to arouse interest among the delegates. Start party engage to permit stop-wars, all given in route. The one in charge of the party should make a careful study of points of interest, etc., that he may in his correspondence, advertising and on the trip speak with authority;
Get the active co-operation of all the railroads and especially of the initial line in your state. When you have decided upon the route, write (or better, see personally) the general passenger agent of that particular railway. Tell him you will undertake the work of securing a special car party to the Chicago meeting. If you have positive assurance of his active co-operation on the lines: (a) the railroad to furnish full information to all prospective members of the parties, giving data covering itinerary and points of interest on route to Chicago. (b) The railroad to circulate this information and itinerary with your co-operation among the members of your local or state league. (c) The railroad to advertise the special Pullman o tourist car part of the New York newspapers of the state. (d) The railroad to send instructions to its agents throughout your state to carry out the active canvass for members for party, with your co-operation. Persons intending to organize such Pullman o tourist car parties are urged to keep the corresponding secretary, Emmett J. Scott, Tuksigee Institute, Ala., in close touch with their plans, so that he may assist in bringing parties in the same territory together. Attention to this request will be cordially appreciated. It will facilitate the whole movement.
Delegates intending to be present should send early notice of such intention to S. J. Evans, chairman, Committee on Homes, 417 East 42d place, Chicago, Ill. Mr. Evans and his committee will assign these various delegations in accordance with such instructions as given by the Chicago Negro Business League in planning for the social entertainment of the delegates has arranged an automobile tour of the city, taking in the various points of interest, the monster business houses, the Board of Trade, etc.; also for a boat excursion on Lake Michigan in honor of the delegates, and a banquet at the Seventh Regiment Armory on the last evening of the convention. In addition to these social features which have been arranged for the entertainment of the delegates, entertainments are also being arranged for the delegates in a reception in honor of the wives of the delegates promises to be the event of the meeting.
The daily sessions of the league will be held in the Pekin Theatre, 27th and State streets. The program for the meeting will be issued from the press not later than August 1. Instead of being closely confined to stories of "experience" as in other years, special issues are invited to speak on various subjects of commercial interest to the delegates: Messra J. Rosenwald, president of Sears, Roebuck & Company, the philanthropist; Edward B. Butler, of Butler Brothers; and a number of Chicago's most prominent business men, have been requested to be present and deliver short addresses. Such addresses are not required, but financial, should be most helpful. The morning session, Thursday, August 22, will be used altogether by the National Negro Bankers' Association.

STRAIGHTEN YOUR HAIR
Not with hot iron. But do it with (Kink-no-more) the greatest hair straightl-ing preparation in the world. It will straighten the kinkiest bind 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 last from six to eight months. Water or nothing will tighten it. After it has been straightened, Kink-no-more is a wonder worker. So marvelously does it its work that one can hardly believe their own eyes. It works like magic, and is unique because there is not another prepar-ation in the world like it. We wonder a ward of $100 for say 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 the skin per hair. But will stop it from growing on hair. It promotes a increased growth of healthy hair and keeps it soft and glossy. Remember that Kink-no-more is sold under a guarantee to do all that is claimed for it or otherwise. It is sold on the receipt of $1.00 a regular size bar of Kink-no-more, enough to straighten from one to two heads of hair. When ordering send registered letter, postal money order or express money order to Agents offered to agents. Write to-day for special terms. Fearless 2 cost stamp to reply. Agents wanted everywhere.

"For census purposes the erroneous includes all Neroses of full blood. The term 'mulatto' includes all Neroses not of full blood, but having any perceptible trace of Neros blood." This clearly shows the animus of the whole color element Nerosau has any more right to query as to "to the full of blood" than as to "whites of full blood," much less has it any authority to include in the term "mulatto" "all N-

Within my own recitalion, both South and North, whenever the exigencies of political demand or persons of obvious African descent have cited as "white" people, I recall several such instances when I was a student at Oberlin, 1862-63. In South Carolina, Georgia and in most of the Southern states, even before the war, Negro and persons of mixed blood freely voted whenever it was considered necessary for political purposes, although in many cases it was contended to the organic law.
