WEST INDIANS FOR BRITISH RULE
Oppose Proposed Federation of Canada and the West Indies
Sir Harry Johnston Says They Are Less Liked by Negroes of West Indies than Americans
Here are 1,640,000 Negroes in British Tropical America to 125,000 Whites in Colonization of Whites Discussed.
The Negroes of the British West Indies are unalterably opposed to the plan which suggests the federation of their country with Canada, which would mean the end of British rule over the island, and if it is left to the West Indians to decide this muchly discussed question there is not much likelihood that the proposed federation will be effected for many years to come.
In discussing the subject Sir Harry Johnston of England, observes that the Canadians are less liked by the colored people of the West Indies than citizens of the United States, which dislike it due to the Canadians sharing to the full, when out of Canada, the "American feeling" against the black man, and whose attitude is more arrogant than the whites in this country.
Although there are 1,640,000 Negroes in the West Indies and British Guiana to 125,000 whites, yet it is found that color prejudice is increasing instead of diminishing, according to Sir Harry Johnston, who makes the following observations in the London Daily Chronicle:
In all parts of Tropical British America there are these facts to be considered:
(1) By far the bulk of the inhabitants are Negroes and Negroids (most-Negroes), in any case more than a million and a half of colored people in the United States. A larger African settlers by that increasing rather than diminishing principle of the color prejudice, which is perhaps more active at the present day than it was in the times of slavery, these regions, unlike that of such a large proportion of Tropical Africa, is not markedly unuited to the health and vigor of the white race. It may be so to some extent in British Guiana, the most equatorial of the tropics, that Tropical America, but in the beautiful West India Islands, and even in the very hot region of British Honduras, there seems to be nothing prejudicial to a colonization by white people (ex-
White Colonization.
Until a few years ago this second fact—the adaptability of the West Indies for white colonization—was strenuously denied by a good many writers, and as evidence of the correctness of their assumption the condition, of the poor whites or mean whites" in the Lower Islands was pointed out. These people who are descended in a large measure from English, Irish and Welsh people deported to the West Indies in the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries for criminal or political offences, have mingled their blood little, if at all, with that of the Negro, and are a distinctly good-looking race, but in the fishahams, especially, they have shown the most vigour of decidence and disease mental and physical.
But when the causes of this tendency to ilice, this latitude of disposition, and those diseased conditions of the body were investigated—primarily by American Commission from more than 100 physicians from the United Kingdom it was found that the present or recent miserable condition of the thousands of poor whites in the Bahamas and the Leeward Islands was due to an easily remitted cause an intolerant form (Necator americanus). This parasite was causing similar trouble to a million or so of whiteites in the United States, as well as to laffers and peasants in Egypt, and elsewhere. It was primarily the whiteites which caused them to walk about with bare feet and to live in the most insanitary way, thus rendering them susceptible, through the tenderer parts of their skin to the entry of this horrible worm, originally introduced by the Negro in the Mediterranean Basin and India. (Full particulars of the cause and cure of the book-worm disease can be read in my book on "The Negro in the New World"). The worthlessness of thousands of poor whites in the Eastern West Indian islands therefore made them easily-removed worm, disease, and not to climate.
Health-giving Jamaica.
Anyone visiting the interior of Jamaica (which is for the most part a region at least 2,000 feet above sea level) can see no sign of physical or mental deterioration in the descendants of English and Scottish planters, who will form an appreciable amount of the population in Jamaica. Their great children are just as intelligent, loving as they had been born in Yorkshire or Devonshire and remain through the past as well as through editions of "What a White" will show to what a remarkable extent, persons who have become distressed in the child.
military and naval services of the British Empire, in the Church, or in the various domains of science and engineering, have been born, and even educated, in Jamaica. Anyone staying at the capital, Kingston, and watching the shipments to and from white lessons, will see no evidence of white degeneration here.
On my return from visiting Jamaica I committed myself to the statement that even after allowing for a very notable increase in the colored population of Jamaica, I would never there for a white population of 10,000 persons, who would naturally choose the high land of the interior (never at any great distance from the coast) for their homes. Here they would find all married persons in a paradise, only married, perhaps, once in dreded years by a severe earthquake, and once in a quarter of a century by a hurricane. But a large proportion of Jamaica seems never to feel or to give evidence to the reason of earthquake show. There is no reason any severity, are usually confined to the vicinity of the seaboard; and that hurricanes cannot materially retard the agricultural progress of the island, is evident from its present condition. They dependents of Nature which in the future will be met by a system of insurance.
The first of the two factors I have mentioned—the existence of 1,640,000 Negroes and Negroids, in British Tropical America as against only 125,000 whites in the United States and an obstacle to federation. The representatives of this overwhelming proportion of colored people would—if they were consulted—effectually veto any new connection with the Dominion of Canada. It is a curious thing, but Canadians are less liked by the colored people of the West Indies than persons from the United States, and this is partly due to the fact that the Americans when out of Canada—the "American" feeling against the black man, and being perhaps a little more arrogant toward them in their dealings than are the United States people, who of late have been more capable of favorable impression on the colored folk of Porto Rico, Cuba and Haitiioia.
When the intelligent and educated natives of the British West Indies or Honduras seek for a future outside these areas they nearly always drift to the United States. When the British West Indians or Honduras of color are actually employed at the present day in the diplomatic and consular services of the United States, as well as in many positions of confidence in the States of Mexico, Mexico, People from England, unlike the Canadians, almost invariably get on well with the colored population in the West Indies, including Cuba. Yes there is such a degree of racial pride and enthusiasm in the people of 600 whites of all British Tropical America that they would oppose most fiercely and doggedly any scheme of federation as which, they black, seek weighed for so much as to transfer the government, although I try to detach myself as much as possible from color prejudice—I think they would be right for the next fifty years.
We cannot shirk the lessons of history. Haiti, incurable Haiti, stands there as an object lesson of what happens when a Negro people is granted power and it becomes government for it by new generations of freedom. Not that Haiti is so remarkably barbarous or uncivilized at the present day, but that its many amenities of life and the recent progress it has made are nearly entirely the same as those of the embittered but more especially the Germans, English and Americans.
OKLAHOMA NEGROES AROUSED
Big Convention Will be Held at Boley on Thursday, September 19, When Colored Citizens From Every Section of the State Will Meet and Plan to Secure Their Right of Suffrage.
Special to THE NEW YORK AGE.
BROOK, OLISA, August 27—Thursday
September 19, 1912, has been set as the
date of the big convention when
Negroes from every section of the state
will meet to discuss ways and means to
tight the obnoxious "Grand Father"
Clause now operative in this state, and
which was passed to disfranchise thou-
sands of Negroes. The following motive has been pos-
sessed: Lords Johnstone.
Greeting; Know Ye, that I, J. Cory Johnson, by do virtue of authority, in me vested at a mass meeting of Negro voters held in the City of Bokey, on the 6th day of August, 1912, hereby give notice, having issued the State of Oklahoma, and known as the "Grandfather Clause," a large number of our people have been disfranchised and are dented the right of suffrage that is guaranteed to the humbleest citizen of the City of Bokey and the State of Oklahoma, under its Constitution; that we believe that these laws are unjust and that we are discriminated against purely on account of our race and color; that we have ever been law abiding citizens and unjustly abusing the institutions of the Constitution, even to the payment of our share of the taxes and other civil burdens incident to the maintenance and support of the State Form of government; yet we are denied the right to vote, and that if any relief is ever gained from these obnoxious laws it must be done by a concerted action on the part of the Negroes. We are the people directly affected by these laws and it is up to us to fight our own battle. That we have that I have set Thursday, the 19th day of September, 1912, at 10 o'clock in the afternoon, in the City of Bokey, Ohio, as being the time and the place for holding the past convention, for the purpose of taking the proper measure to secure the rights of our people to the heart of our nation.
The basis of representation at this convention will be as follows: For the content categorizing what was formerly the Charakter, Charakter,
BIG DEMONSTRATION AGAINST ROOSEVELT
VICTIMS AT ARMAGEDDON
They Were the Eight Million Defenders Negroes of the South Who Were Invited to Enter "Door of Hope."
At Bethel A. M. E. Church Sunday afternoon the mass meeting to celebrate the 121st anniversary of the revok of the plantation slaves in Haiti was turned into a big anti-Roosevelt demonstration in which Dr. Reverdy C. Riverson, author of the A. M. E. Review, and former pastor of the church, was the principal figure. Dr. Ransom was one of Roosevelt's most loyal followers until the Colonel wrote to gulian Harris giving his views on the Negro. He went to Chicago last June to do all in his power toward bringing about Roosevelt's nomination. To-day the well-known divine is as strongly against the head of the Buff Moose party as he was for him a short time ago.
During Dr. Ransom's scathing denunciation of Roosevelt he was applauded time and time again by the large audience.
"I can truthfully say that this action by Col. Roosevelt has caused me more pain and deep sorrow of heart than I have ever felt over the most revolting public outrage," declared the speaker. "I have been so ashamed to death knell to our hopes it dazed me like the sturping stroke of a buttal blow.
"All through his Chicago Convention I hoped against hope, that wise and righteous council would prevail. Among other things, I planned my faith to Miss Carolyn from whom she is the home to call my friend. She is the home of the choice spirits of all this earth. But even she, one of the rarest and noblest among the daughters of men, surrendered the cause of justice for the colored fellow-citizens to secure things she valiantly should program of social and civic uplift.
"When Col. Roosevelt's Convention adjourned, I felt like one feels when he is returning from the cemetery after having buried a cherished friend. For had he not buried there our hopes, we would have both an executioner, undertaker and officiating priest?"
"Ever since Mr. Roosevelt summoned us to the barren sand hills of his Armageddon to battle for his white mud-covered body, he quoted the quotation of Scripture. As the smoke of battle lifts from the field of Armageddon, we behold the heaps of the plain who have fallen before the impetuous charge of this mighty man of fire, and the fierceness of his fenseless Negroes of the South whom he had invited to enter his door of hope and be saved. True, the Colonels has sought to justify his action on high ground, and fine objects of his honest followers and fool the fools among my people.
Roosevelt's Plea for Social and Political Justice.
"A few months ago it was impressed upon us that Col. Roosevelt was about to open the food gates and let justice, judgment and righteousness flow down the streets and nightly stream. The Republican Party, the Democratic Party, and had been untrue to its trust. When Roosevelt pronounced his alluring program for social and political justice, he touched the chord to which our most earnest strings could rebound. We forgave his harsh and indiscrede conduct in the Brownville affair.
"I joined the large and representatively body of colored men who went to the Republican National Convention to work for Roosevelt's nomination to be president. He was the door of hope; his all men up and not some down, and the other catch phrases in his verbal reportore were honestly meant to apply to black men as well as white. We were not displeased against him. What we want is to protect him in treatment in this nation. Less than one term of Mr. Taft had proven a disappointment to us. We thought it not wrong to urge Negro delegates to break away from Mr. Taft, first by voting chairman and next against the report of the Committee on Credentials, then if necessary, against Mr. Taft direct. While pleading with our people to support Roosevelt, we served public notice upon him in the Ethical Church, Chicago, with me, that while putting aside his Brownsville record, if he proved faithless to us, I would fight against him just as hard as I was then fighting for him. His promises are as unstable as water; his covenant with the people is a mask for personal ambition; his doctrines are used as beautiful traps to catch the noble, earnest and inspiring, but unsuspecting. He would make the president of amendment, while openly associating the Fifteenth Amendment. He has proven faithless and the fight is on.
Sought: Southern Delegates' Support at Chicago.
"Much, but by no means all, that he says about Negro delegates from the South is true. If there has been corruption among them, who more than once has sent fruits of it in the past? Who more than he has courted and battered them? Did he not, less than three months ago, openly bid for their support? Did he not, when President, and leader, speeched their high character and integrity? Must he know, better than he that both, in means and selfless patriotism, the Negro delegates has nothing to lose by the most right comparison from the same section. Let Mr. Roose-
velt point to any man in power who has done more than he can or foster these same southern leaders which now he as deplores.
"Mr. Roosevelt neither created nor spired the movement which he country he assumes to direct atrol as his own personal process, nor to the extinctions of the power fortunes. This new man is in possession of a power of military in possession of clergy; this movement for individual social and political justice, in making itself in England and on the Continent of Europe, under the leadership of men and women whose wisdom, greatness of purpose and uncompromising devotion to their ideals he would be well as intimate. Here he is the right of the people in rule; which proposes to devolve head to the cause of political and social justice. Yet, when it comes to deal with the Negroes, the people who offer most from oppression, the people whose men, women and children are the most defenseless victims and the greatest putrefied victims, Col. Roosevelt, the chief and leader of the herd, lifts his head, waves his antlers high in the air, and sounds the call, and the "Bull Moose Party" runs amuck on the Negro question. Col. Theodore, Roosevelt has no more right to take great truths for which noble men have been forged and seek to make their realization of local application, then he has to suspend the operation of the "Two Commandments toward a given clam.
The Two Liaocina.
"Mr. Roosevelt would have us believe that he is following in the footsteps of Lincoln. Let us see: Lincoln emanated us from physical slavery and invoked upon his act the blessing of Alma Mater, the institution of mankind. Roosevelt has delivered us into political slavery, and invokes upon his act the consideration of Mr. Julian Harris, the division of the Southern white vote and the patient subjection of the Negroes to their political threat. In the same nation, he armed the Negro to fight for the preservation of the Union and for his own freedom. When Roosevelt would save the nation, from the foes that he declared threaten its destruction, he would shame the Negro with ballot, the only effective weapon with which he could salvation of his country and his own protection.
"Lincoln, as a man of Southern lineage, knew that the South left to itself, would never emancipate the slaves and resisted the extension of the borders of slavery. Roosevelt, as a man of Southern lineage, knows the South left to itself, will never voluntarily put the balkan slave states under his control everywhere his exclusion from participation in the Government, just he proclaims the one and invites the other.
The Northern Nebraska
"Mr. Roosevelt would use that he is not discriminatory against us as a race, from the fact that Northern Negroes will not be excluded from the council of his party that is to say, that he is not a slave in states where he may still exercise the right to vote. But the Southern Negro must be excluded because he is 'venal,' the tool of unscruppulous white men, etc. Mr. Roosevelt has had enough dealings with colorious men to know, as does know the North, that he is not one whit better than the Southern Negro, either in patriotism, character, wealth or intelligence. If Maryland, West Virginia or Missouri should enact a disfeministic law, then, as Roosevelt, the Negroes in those states are to be excluded from his party.
"If Mr. Roosevelt thinks that self-respecting Negroes will submit to this monstrous outrage, let me remind him that there are millions in our race who still possess the same fighting spirit and courage when he was a soldier in China. Would the leader of any party in Great Britain dare make such a proposal to the Irish? If Theodore Roosevelt came from the Holy Hill of Zion instead of Saxamore Hill, he would still know that he was a heavier masquerading in the garments of the saint of lich and spurring his proposals, we would refuse to follow him.
Spirit of Slavery and the Spirit of a Slave.
"The trouble in the South to day and elsewhere is that in the heart of a large body of the white people there still remains the spirit of slavery, while in the hearts of a large number of Negroes there is a strong sense of pride." Mr. Roosevelt says he is acting in the best interests of the Negro and has excluded him from his party for his own good. We no more agree with him in this than he agrees with those who would exclude him from the Presidency for the nation's good. There are suburbs where there are domineering and tyrannical white men. These are the only ones to whom Mr. Roosevelt's unpatriotic white men. These are the only ones to whom Mr. Roosevelt's unpatriotic proposal can appeal with anything but conspiracy. There is no need for Mr. Roosevelt's party in the South to exclude the Negro from politics and let the best white people rule. The Democratic Party has been attending to that business quite effectively for more than thirty years. There are no other white people in the South than these same white people who have already eliminated the Negro from politics. Will changing their party affiliations change their character? Or did they experience a change of heart at his Chicago convention? Did they all join the party and then adjourned with a shout, and have they received the spirit of brotherhood since they believed?
About the Republican Party.
"We do not withdraw a single word we have ever uttered against President Tatt, or the Republican party. The Republican party has uttered to the United States that we are going to grow in the capacity of those constitutional rights which we compete for in each given state, and has demanded that each state should give equal protection to its citizens. It would also require us to move in national consciousness and an education data. What has it gained by
The small motion picture theatre in Seventh avenue, between 32nd and 131st streets, has inaugurated a system by which all known Negro patrons are compelled to pay double admission in order to gain admission. The regular rate displayed on the ticket office is ten cents for adults and five cents for children. There are no performances in the afternoon, but commencing 6.45 in the evening the doors are thrown upon to patrons. The management boldly and defiantly informs all known colored patrons that they must pay twenty cents to enter and must sit in the gallery. Should anyone have the temerity to inquire the reason of the extra charge they will inform you that it is because of the reserved seats you are obtaining in spite of the fact that there are plenty of seats on the lower floor and that one may not desire to sit in the gallery.
So many complaints have been heard in and throughout Harlem that an Ace representative called at the Seventh avenue photo-playhouse accompanied by Will H. Vodery, and was informed that owing to the lateness of the hour the management were refusing to sell tickets for entry as there was but half a reel to be run before closing. At that time a sign reading "Admission ten cents—Children five cents" was called to their attention.
The following evening Tate Act representative sent two female members of his family to the theatre, who were informed by the ticket-seller that they would have to pay twenty cents each to enter. This they refused to do and returned home.
Young Colored Woman "Passes" and Gets Evidence.
In the meanwhile THE AGE representative had obtained the services of a very fair colored woman and requested that she attend the theatre and obtain the scale of prices of admission. The young lady was informed by the box-office attendant that admission was ten cents all over the house and also made deputy to request for a twenty cent reserved seat in the house-admission up and down stairs being one dime. She, therefore, paid twenty cents for two seats: the tickets for which were torn by the attendant from a ticket roll.
After receiving the two tickets the young lady entered the theatre, using one ticket and asked the usher where she could sit. The usher informed her that she could take any seat in the house as there were none reserved.
The same evening THE AGE representative attended the theatre and was compelled to pay twenty cents each for two tickets from the very same roll which the box-office attendant had sold the young lady two tickets earlier in the evening for a dime apiece.
Upon being requested to give a reason for the discrimination the young man at the door insolently replied that he could charge whatever be pleased for entry to his theatre and that as the colored people had made so much fuss about it that he would hereafter charge fifty cents. The names of three witnesses who had been overcharged that same evening, all of whom had been refused admission at the displayed rate of ten cents, were blinded. They were U. James, 51 W. 12nd street; E. James, 44 W. 132nd street; and V. Christian of the same address.
Any number of witnesses can be obtained to verify the facts and conditions existing. Little children who show any trace of being colored cost their parents ten cents for admission while the white children of the neighborhood are admitted for five cents.
This glaring case of discrimination on account of color has been placed in the hands of a lawyer for prosecution.
GOV. BLEASE DEFEATED.
Special to THE NEW YORK ACE
COLUMBIA, S. C., Aug. 27—Present indications are that Gov. Cole L. Bleace has been defended in the Governoratorial primary by Judge Ira B. Jones, and that Bleace's ambition to serve a second term will not be realised. The returns show that the people of South Carolina are dead of Bleace, who, although presiding once legal power to be a hypothetie on the Negro question. The campaign between Judge Jones and Gov. Bleace was one of the most bitter ever held in this state.

MIRA WATSON, Wes. August 27. Attorney General. Wickham, men. His fight Tuesday at the opening session of the American Bay Association to sustain William H. Lewis. Assistant Attorney General, as a member of the organization. The session, which was one of the most exciting in the history of the association, refused to draw the color line.
Two other Negroes, Butler R. W. Wilson, of Boston, and William R. Morris of Minneapolis, also remain members of the association. The association dodged the color line question in that it passed a compromise resolution requiring local organization to state whether or not a future candidate for membership is a Negro. This was freely admitted to be a compromise, in which Attorney General Wickersham, former Secretary of War, John M. Dickinson and several other lending lights of the profession joined.
Judge Dickinson in offering the compromise said that in view of the fact that the question was a delicate one he would advise the body to pass the resolution without discussion. A call for question arose and in spite of an unproar the chairman put the question to a vote.
"The measure seems to have passed," announced Mr. Frazer, and he was immediately interrupted by cries of "It has not!" Before the session the Attorney General said: "I deny the right of the American Bar Association after it has once seated a member to sit him on the ground that it has been discovered that he is a Negro. Whether the association wants hereafter toNegro criminal question, but that is no doubt that the present executive committee exceeded its power when it undertook to rescind its action." The members of the committee who voted to expel the Negro lawyers from the association were Hollis R. Gailey, Boston; Addis B. Brown, Washington; John Hinkley, Baltimore; Lynn Heim, Los Angeles; Edgar H. Farr, Newark, Orleans; Secretary George A. Whitelock, Baltimore, and President S. S. Gregory, of Chicago. The executive committee, headed by S. S. Gregory of Chicago, president of the association, had prepared a special report declaring it has been against the association's policy to admit Negro members, and saying that it would be impossible of local councils without the fact that they were Negroes being made generally known. Ralph W. Breckenridge of Omaha submitted a minority report opposing the committee's action in revoking the Negroes' election.
PHILADELPHIA CHOSEN
Fourteenth Annual Session of National Negro Business League will be Held in Quaker City—Many Old Officers Re-elected.
Special to THE NEW YORK AGE
CITICASO, ILL., Aug. 27. After quite a spirted contest between Philadelphia Muskegue and Nashville for the fourteenth annual session of the National Negro Business League, Philadelphia won out and the Philadelphiaans in attendance, headed by Dr. Algernon B. Jackson and W. P. Hall, assured the delegates that they would be warmly welcomed and given the time of their lives in the Quaker City next August. Dr. Booker T. Washington was reelected President, and his election was made unanimous. He was put in nomination by J. Madison Vance of New Orleans, who paid a high tribute to the leadership of the Tuskegee and of his sterling qualities. Seconding nomination speeches were made by delegates from various sections of the country. Dr. C. Harris of Tuskegee was succeeded by treasurer by Charles R. Anderson of Jacksonville, Fl., Mr. Harris declining the honor owing to business which demands all of his attention. The Bostonian has filled the position with credit for thirteen years. Dr. Algernon B. Jackson of Philadelphia, was chosen transportation agent in the place of Cyrus Field Adams, while W. P. Hall of Philadelphia, was made a member of the Executive Committee.
The officers of the National Negro Business League are: Booker T. Washington, Tuskegee Institute, Ala., president; Charles Banks, Mound Bayon, Miss, first vice-president; J. E. Bush, Little Rock, Ark, second vice-president; Dr. S. G. Gilbert, Wilmington, Del, third vice-president; Harry T. Pratt, Baltimore, fourth vice-president; D. J. Turner, Boley, Okla., fifth vice-president; Emmett J. Scott, Tuskegee Institute, Ala., corresponding secretary; Charles B. Anderson, Jacksonville, Fla. treasurer; F. H. Gilbert, Brooklyn, registrar; R. C. Houston, Fort Worth, Tex. assistant registrar; Al. Algernon B. Jackson, Philadelphia, transportation agent; William H. Davis, Washington, D. C., official stenographer; S. Laing Williams, Chicago, compiler; E. C. Napier, Executive Committee; J. C. Napier, Washington, D.C.; Dr. S. E. Courtney, Boston; W. T. Andreas, Sumter, S. C.; Dr. S. A. Formia, Indianapolis; J. B. Bell, Houston, Tex.; J. C. Jackson, Lexington, Ky.; M. H. Lawson, Pennsylvania, Ph.; R. E. Jones, New Orleans, La.; Scipio A. Jouce, Little Rock, Ark.; T. H. Hayes, Memphis, Tenn.; Dr. George C. Hall, Chicago; T. J. Elliott, Muskeguee, Okla.; W. C. Gooden, St. Louis; W. P. Hall, Philadelphia.
Dawson, O., August 27.—When the Grand Lodge of the Improved Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks of the World convened in this city this thirteenth annual session Excalibur Ruther Harry Pace and other grand officers were served with injunction papers which had been gotten out Monday by the white Elks, who objected to the colored men using the title "Elks."
In anticipation of the colored order meeting this week in Dayton, the white Elks instituted injunction proceedings in the Common Court of Plans Monday against the Improved Bennett and Protective Order of Elks of the World. In the petition it is stated that the defender claims to have been organized under the laws of the State of Ohio. Although the move on the part of the white Elks to involve the colored men in legal proceedings while in annual session came as a big surprise, it cannot be said that the suit has frightened anybody. Service was willingly accepted by the officers named in the petition and the colored Elks proceeded to business just as it nothing had happened.
will be no disposition to join the suit in Ohio until the highest tribunal in the land is heard from. The majority of members are inclined to think that the United States Supreme Court will decide in their favor as was done recently in the case won by the Negro Knights of Pythias of Georgia. That the colored Elks in a warlike mood by their willingness contribute toward raising a big fund to fight all cases pending the decision of the United States Supreme Court. This promises to be the largest gathering of Elks in the history of the order. Free from factional strife which for many years had the organization divided, and working in harmony under the splendid leadership of Harry Pace, the session bids fair to be a record-breaker in more ways than one. Despite the heavy expenses to which the Grand Lodge has been subjected it is in a better shape than ever before. Over ten subordinate lodges have been added to the order, and but few members are non financial. The real estate buildings of the organization are said to amount to ten. Although there are many candidates in the field the consensus of opinion is that Harry Pace of Memphis, will be reelected Grand Exalted Ruler and that George E. Bates of Jersey City, N. J. will be chosen Grand Secretary. J. Finley Wilson is making a strong fight for Grand Organizer.

Think about it—a preparation that all you need to apply it on the hair and with a little heat for one hour becomes straight, not to stay for one hour, but to last from six to eight months. Water nor nothing else will make it kink again after it has been straightened. Kink-no-more is a wonder worker. So marvelously does it do its work that one can imagine and their own eyes. It works like magic, and the result is not another preparation in the world like it. We offer a reward of $100 for any head of hair the Kink-no-more will not straighten.
Kinki no more is a vegetable compound it is perfectly harmless and will not injure the scalp nor hair. But will stop it from falling off and will not cause it to promote a luxurious growth of healthy hair and keeps it soft and glossy.

SQUARE DEAL IN ACTION.
THE AGE believes in the principles of "all men up, no man down"; "equal rights for all, special privileges for none;" "a square deal for all, a square steal for none;" "thou shalt not lie" thyself, nor tempt others to do. Standing at Armageddon, with one of his big feet on the antlers and the other on the tail of the Bull Moose, waving a red bandana in the air and yelling like mad, Col. Roosevelt, the chief Progressive with a minor Digressive movement for social and industrial uplift, has time and again proclaimed as his own the principles we have enumerated as our own, because they are the common property of honest men, and the "catch as catch can" makes shifts of rogues. Speaking at Providence, August 16, Col. Roosevelt said:
We do not for a moment pretend that what we advocate will bring about the millennium. Unless the average man has the right stuff in him he can neither be master of himself nor avoid falling under the domination of those who should be his servant. We understand thoroughly that after everything that can be done by law has been done it will yet remain true that the fundamental factor in determining any individual's success must be that individual's own character. But we also insist that we can do much very much, for furthering happiness and prosperity in this deeply loved land of producing the right type of labor by indicating on the right kind of administration of the law alike by the executive officer and the judge, and finally by arousing the public conscience so that it will refine longer to tolerate iniquity either in the world of politics or in the world of business.
We intend to work for prosperity, but we wish to see prosperity cast around. We stand for a protective tariff, but we wish to see the benefits of the protective tariff get into the pay envelope of the wage worker. Instead of decreasing we wish to increase the amount of the price money that is rightfully due those who work hard in industry; but we stand for a more equitable division of the price money.
These be fair words, and out of the heart of an honest man they would mean much to those who believe that socialism and not republicanism is the correct principle of social and industrial betterment by government coercion and not by individual preference and determination. The individual is only a unit in the social aggregation. He can have only so much to say and do as is allowed by the consent of all the units. There are some 200,000,000 voting units in the United States, each one of which should have as much to say by his ballot as the other about the government of all of them, but, standing on the White Man's party platform, Col. Roosevelt says that one-tenth of them shall have nothing to say about it except with the consent of their former slave masters, as in the old times those same people could not go off their master's property without a written "pass." That was quite half a century ago, when Col. Roosevelt was issuing "knee-pants" on his mother's Georgia plantation.
For forty-four years under Republican party rule, the Negro has stood upon equality with his fellow partisan in party conventions and in the voting booths. He has not had to ask any white man what he should say and do in the one or the other. Col Roosevelt himself professed to believe in the constitutional and party right of the Negro to do so until he wrote his letter to Julian Harris, of Georgia, July 7 last. When he lays down the principle that a Negro citizen has no more right as a voter and partisan than Col Roosevelt may graciously, condescendingly, magnanimously allow him to have, he invites such a war at Armageddon as to provoke the wrath of the
The social and industrial program of uplift for all which denies political equality is the greatest of the three—social, industrial- and political equality. The Republican party stands for the three.
A JUST DECISION
Mr. Brownard Betts, Assistant Commissioner of Education of New Jersey, has sustained on appeal the appointment of Dr. James F. Bourne to be a member of the school board of Atlantic City. The legality of the appointment was questioned on the ground that Mr. Harry Bacharach was not Mayor when he made it at 10 o'clock in the morning or July 16, the day on which the new City Commission took over the government at noon.
The news dispatches insist that the appointment of Dr. Bourne "brought north howls of disapproval from all sections and all classes in Atlantic City," and this would be correct if it had been stated that the howls and howlers were all white male inhabitants of the place, as not a black or mullato howl was heard, or will be. Dr. Bourne is one of the most capable and influential citizens of Atlantic City, and all the more so because he is identified with the Negro people and is proud of it. The decision in his favor is a just one. The way to get justice is to light, not howl, for it.
PRESIDENT TAFT WANTS /
FAIR FIGHT.
The efforts of the Progressive party people in many states to rob the Republican party of Presidential electors, under the queer workings of the new primary law, is as discreditable to them as their denunciation of Southern delegates who refused to be purchased in the Republican convention or relegated to the gallery in the Progressive convention, at Chicago. It is a brand new twist of the thimble-rigger in politics to denounce as incompetent and dishonest the Negro delegate who refused to sell his vote for a mess of red green-backs.
Talking to the Maryland Republican Editorial Association, at Washington, recently, President Taft said:
"All we ask is a fair fight. A man cannot be In the Republican party and in the Third Party at the same time and should be compelled to make his selection."
"Being a party we are anxious to have the opinions that our party represents put into force in the operation of the Government. The only way we can do this is by electing a Congress and a President who will carry them out. Now that means that we have to be single party and not a part of two parties.
"I don't think we are unfair in asking that we be given a chance for a fair fight and in counting those who are who are not with us. To have a man on both sides of the fight when we are on one side is uncomfortable especially when he is behind you.
Before the convention it is all right that we should differ as to the man best qualified to represent us as Republicans in carrying out the principles of the party, but after the convention each voter's influence should carry its proper and proportionate weight in the election of the party's candidate.
"We have been seeking to find a place in which we could fight for our principles and with our own people and know who our enemies are and who our friends are. I think we have done well. I am sure from what I have heard of Maryland that you have taken long steps in that direction. The principle is that a man who is not with us is against us and he should get out of the way."
The Bull Monsters are not fair fighters and they do not fight fair. In seeking to round up delegates to the Chicago convention in many of the Western states they employed the methods of rough riders and bushwhackers, and in the Southern states they employed the methods of Democratic bulldozers to keep Negroes out of their party conventions and ran the stone crusher over such delegates as dared to go to Chicago anyhow as delegates. In dealing with President Taft personally, before and since the two Chicago conventions, Col. Roosevelt and his fuglemen have acted as highwaymen, out for "Hands up Fait" 'Your office or your life!"
As they have striven to tough house it with President Taft, the Republican party and the Negro citizen, we believe that the American voters will do all Col. Roosevelt and his Bull Mooserson election day, November 5. They will be taught that the American electorate are neither foods, knaves nor fakers, but thinking men courageous, who know how to separate the chaff from the wheat, the good from the bad, the false from the true.
What is a fellow? He is usually regarded as a friend do well with a creature of the less or lesser sort. One of Col. Roosevelt's pet endearments is, "Now my dear fellow," Southern white men would dedicate to a black person other than as "Fellow, Moss," and like We Seld the Baltimore, New American Colonel indulges the Lamararty as follows: "Patrick," or some other reable fellow he "Mars." Eternal veneration is the prize of Larry." Patrick Henry was an the largest some one of the Fathers of the Federal Republic of United States. "Alexander Pope" furnishes us the following classical definition of the characterization: "Worth makes the important of it the allowance of other prunella."
Geneva, Illinois, United States, head of the Salvation Army, who carried the gospel of help and comfort to the dregs of the world, to the countless dwellers of the slums of the cities of all lands, died in London, England, August 20, in the eighty-third year of his age. He is succeeded by his son Bramwell Booth, in the world-wide work he established. In 1890 Gen. Booth had a difference with his son Ballington which led to a split in the Salvation Army and the creation of the Volunteers of America by Ballington Booth and his wife Maud; the management of Salvation Army interests in the United States passing to Eva Booth, one of the daughters. There was never a reconciliation between the father and son, as the old soldier was as unbendable as fate.
Gen. Booth was born in Nottingham, England, in 1829, and began his work as a minister of the Methodist church but gradually drifted into the work of an evangelist. He started the Salvation Army work in 1861, and met with great opposition from all directions, but he persisted and planted the banner of the Army in every country, so that at his death it numbered some 2,000,000 members under the charge of some 18,000 officers, operating in fifty-three countries and colonies. The writer was startled in 1903 to come face to face with a Salvation Army band in a side street in Yokohoma, Japan, the native members singing at the top of their voices "Shall we gather at the River." the words being interpreted by the music of the band—music which keeps and conveys the same sound and meaning in all lands, in all tongues.
There are many people who question the good the Salvation Army accomplishes if any, but they are for the most part people who judge the work by its street parades, exhortations and singing, and who were never hungry, shelterless and weary of life, and who were never taken in hand at Salvation Army headquarters and given a square meal, a shelter and the consolation of Christian sympathy and advice. Such people always know too much and are bad judges of anything.
BREAK IN WHITE PRIMARY.
BREAK IN WHITE PRIMARY.
King Solomon said "there is nothing new under the sun," and he meant it, but he did not have the light we have to see by. Among the new things, for example, we have that the wise King could not show the visiting Queen of the South are the Republican Elephant, the Democratic Ass, the United Colored Democracy Tiger and the Progressive Bull Moose. Any one of these in human outline would have sent the swarthy Queen of Sheba skyrating in Eestacy. Here is another new thing in Virginia, swathed in editorial vitroil, by the Richmond Planet, as follows:
Colored men voted in In the Richmond Democratic primary last Thursday, the Negro batten to the contrary notwithstanding the Richmond Virginia opposed the innovation, but the judges of election, being sworn to do, lived up to the letter and the spirit of the law. An ex-President Roemervelt kicks the Negroes out of the front door of the National Progressive Party, the liberal minded white Democrat of the Southland admit them through the front door of the Democratic Party. And the world moves on.
Now, is not that a brand new thing, surrounding the death knell of the old thing, "the White Primary," in the South? It seems so to us.
If a black man is born with Democratic sympathies and leanings, or cultivates them after birth as he would any other brand of new thing for use or ornament, the law of inheritance or acquisition should protect him in his right. In Virginia, Maryland and Oklahoma, under the new primary laws, election officers, with the fear of both fine and imprisonment staring them in the face, have begun to do so, and enforcement of the law should soon destroy the White Primary and give a black Democrat as free right to vote and be voted for as a white one in the Democratic party. We think the Federal Supreme Court, if finally appealed to, would be compelled to take this view of the question. By the same sign the Negro Progressive in the South could compel primary officials to accept his ballot. Meanwhile, the black man's right to vote and he voted for in Republican primaries and conventions remains the same as the white man's right.
EDITORIAL NOTES
Don't be afraid to pay your debts.
A preliminary investigation of the route traveled by the family of Abraham Lincoln in removing from Indiana to Illinois, in 1839, has been finished by Mr Charles M. Thompson of the University of Illinois. An effort will be made to have the route marked with suitable monuments. There is an increasingly growing sentiment of honor and respect for the memory of the great man of the Republic, which is attributable to the timing of the National War. There is less of the sentiment among those who marry than any other of the period of the nation. As it here and in this illness, one which he has been forced to have him to grow.

military personnel, and guarded communities would be alert away suddenly, leaving nothing behind them but presenting stalk; and then as suddenly as they came the virtuous spasms pass away. The Rosenthal murder in New York, recently, has started one of these spasms. The relations of the police departments with the police and crime elements are under investigation in New York, Philadelphia, Atlantic City, and other cities, and some very ugly conditions have been disclosed. If the same activity and vigilance were maintained all of the time we should soon have better municipal conditions. The only way to keep down vice and crime is to keep sleepsleeply on the track of them by the legal authorities and civic organizations independently of the policy.
Prof. Thomas Jesse Jones of the United States Bureau of Education, says, in the Southern Workman for August, the Negroes of the South cultivate 100,000,000 acres for others and own and cultivate for themselves 15,702,579 acres, "which they have acquired in less than fifty years." He places the total acreage owned by the Negroes of the United States and the total value of land and buildings owned by them. This splendid showing for fifty years of hustle and thrift, under most disadvantageous conditions, constitutes a foundation upon which it should be easy to build in the next fifty years an inheritance in landed wealth and moral character which will redeem the race from its present political and civil slough of despond. The main and most difficult thing will be to hold a fair percentage of the young people to the uncatal acres and their development, agricultural and industrial schools are doing a great work in that direction.
The Southern Letter says "the demand for bathrooms" has kept the Plumbing Division of the Tuskegee Institute "unusually busy during the year." The total number of jobs done was 2,100 and the receipts amounted to $6,175. The old contention, which used to give some white people lots of comfort, that Negroes do not care for water for bathing purposes, has long since gone glimmering with that other one that Negroes could not master and hold the dead languages and higher mathematics. The fact is the Negro can do anything a white man can, from writing a readable book on Arctic exploration and experiences, like Matthew Henson, to blacking shoes, like Tobey Shiff, to he will only try and do it. And he is beginning to understand that he does not need to talk and write about "the Negro question" all of the time, or to accept everything a white man gives or desires to give him, including that precious scourrow "the Negro's place," if he does not want it, but can have what he wants if he will make it or is able to buy it of others.
The editor of The Star of Zion is elected to his responsible position by the General Conference of the African Methodist Episcopal Zion Church. He publishes himself at the top of the editorial page of the paper as "Dr. G. Clement, A. M. Editor." What does he mean by that? Does he regard that as good form? Why does he not put the D. D. in association with the A. M. Editor, as prefix, properly, instead of suffix of part and prefix of other part? Why doesn't he use all of his titles of distinction and place them properly where they belong, say, as follows: "G. C. Clement, Mr. Rev, D. O., A. M. Editor." The Star of Zion says: "The Age sees nothing good in those Negroes who are for Wilson; in fact it has a negative effect." He wants to scream out Taft platitudes so much per" and more of like tenor sort. What does the creature mean? He says he is a Democrat, but we don't believe him, because he can't vote in the Democratic primary where he respires in North Carolina. The Age rides nightmarse; they don't ride it. The past history and "present attitude of the Democratic party towards the Negro do not appeal to The Age.
The recent Olympic meet at Stockholm, Sweden, was in the nature of "worldwide athletic competition," says the Independent; "men met from many lands and proved so nearly equal that the chronometer and the camera had to be employed to detect any difference." It is a fair conclusion that men of all races are physically about equally matched, in the crude or trained to the minute. The essential differences of races to-day are marked and accentuated by intellectual and moral rather than physical enlargement. What the Negro needs everywhere, and is only getting, at this time, in the North and South American States, equally, in some sort with others, is fullest physical, moral and mental culture, to unlock his natural inheritance in the arts, sciences and letters. The Arab races have been unlocked quite 1912 years; the Far Eastern Asiatics began to be unlocked 55 years ago; it is to be hoped that the African races will soon begin to be unlocked. What is the nature of the lock, and who locked them?" The wise men of the West answer, and their answer has been since the Christian era. "We don't know."
Making Negro Political Scapegoat
To the Editor of THE ACK:
The once streamlined "Told" is playing the part of a weak trumpeter who would defend soldiers who saved his life at last crucial moments, and the Southern Negro delegates remembered his gratitude to the black soldiers who have lived his life at last crucial moments. The black delegates then by turning innocent men out of the army in disguise because of the Brown with that the black delegates had a chance to even an old score and they did it with a vign. Even then thousands of Negro men and women had faith in his leadership and his ship over into the new party, but his recent utterances place him in the front ranks of dangerous, self-skilling political demons with the world in his home with the world in his possession of the privileges of this great nation. Ten millions of intelligent Negroes of America will better be protected by political protection and colonial himself and his gang of vignary dreamers will be that he can assume the Democratic Party's sole authority of the South political campaigns. The platform of the Bell Monroe is not a platform of the legal Progressives are asserting the so-called Progressive party like the party from a shaking old and slimy old party in the Negro face, we will

Chicago, III, August 27. - The Progressive Convention which terminated at Chicago August 5, 1912, was notable for its fight in the war. Its policy as inaugurated by the new party was outlined in advance. Every principle upon which it was based had been adhered to. The party was disgruntled by the action of the Republican party at Chicago, determined that a new party should be formed dedicated to the protection of all citizens, "equality of opportunity," "social justice," and other mottoes that would appeal to the country. The party decided to enter into the plans and formation of this new party. Particularly was this true of a number of Negro organizations that had bolted the regular organizations of their States and supported Col. Roosevelt in the Republican Nation. Involvement of the party in Wm. Locker of Mississippi, Wm. P. Andrews, Baxter and Wilson of South Carolina, and other colored delegates of South Carolina, and many
When he was defoned for that nonunion, the Progressary cast their fortunes with the help of the Party of the United States. The new South to enter the new party was however, met with a delegation of men like R. S. Fridge, the House of Representatives of the House of Representatives who were unemongling his cell requested that all white men of past party affiliations assemble at a hotel in Jackson. Miss. that did not allow to be a person who had who had to go to the back down for admission used by the servants. This valley was agreed upon in all the Southern States. The House of Representatives of the Party of the United States, which as Pearl Wright, Col. John N. Parker and Louisiana, Cell Lyons of Texas and others who have long adopted the Act, will be held in the States. The Negroes are (liberal) white leaders of the South depending upon Col. Roosevelt, the past attitude of the Negro. The State will be the first regular delegates to the convention, composed of white Congressors from the State of Washington and the States of Florida. The Georgia, Florida and Alabama were thrown out by the Committee on Crodens, it was decided to make the party in the state of Florida. The state's minority in the endeavor to catch the White South even vote. To minimize this effect, how ever Col. Roosevelt gave personal instructions to the people of the States to hold a Negro debate or two in order to hold the board vote of the North and that a mark would be put in the platform which was the satisfactory to the Northern college for
After the decision to exclude the Negro delegates from the convention it was decided by a number of the Negroes friends in the convention to put the party on the road to victory. The number of their friends led by Prof. J. E. Spinnington advocated this resolution.
The National Progressive Party convened a meeting of class in pollinator life have no place in a Democracy. Especially does the party realize that a group of ten million people who have in a generation re-established a family system, re-established family life, no compulsated a billion dollars of real property including ten million acres of land and reduced their affluence from right to left, have both, and a considerable portion of the National Progressive Party, the American of African descent, did not forest in pollinator life and in the gradual growth of his pollinator life.
Emphasized, Secretary, to their success in throwing out all the Southern and elected delegates to the convention, the Southern party declared that the Presidency Party must be rounded one-sentiment in favor of the Southern party, and that the Southern party, as a white men's party, took Lewis, the great "Tilly Waltz" leader of the South, who was defeated in his efforts.
wise now. While grasping the principles of his text the school teacher of 10-day must be able to bring the theory of that text down to common things. The other day Tuskegee supplied a teacher for a vacancy in a city in Illinois. What was he to teach? Arithmetic and Grammar? Yes, that. Then she was to teach sewing, a class in cooking, a class in gymnastics. She was to organize a community meeting introduce school gardening, maintain the property, raise the best products and gain the co-operation of the parents of the children sufficiently to secure from them the money for the prizes. Could she do all this? She did. She had had the training, dressmaking and cooking she had taken as trades while studying arithmetic and grammar. Cooking, she and every other girl who enters Tuskegee Institute, must take. During her last two years she had specialized in education. This means that she had gone out into the surrounding community and taught classes, that she had seen mother's

Those and other similar opinions at once participated a fight in the convention. Miss Garrett, Prof. Hays the general, Mr. Haden the Minnesota and other Negro sympathizers of Justice for the Negro demanded that he receive a square deal from the convention. The battle was tensely drawn and resulted in a clear victory for the Southern forces. Their persistent efforts even succeeded in winning the battle, adopted by the New York State delegation of which he was a member. The resolution was laid on the table because the Southern forces had not in keeping with the demand of the Southerners to have a National Tally. White, Jim Crow party. The Southern cured in their victory that they demanded that General McMorrow of the Confederate Veterans of Tennessee he allowed the Roosevelt and waged bloody war for four years to keep the Negro enslaved and to separate this Nation was made the greatest hero of the American Revolution, while the band played it.
The Negro voters of the North, however, have risen in solid phalanx to the defense of the rights of their brothers in the South. They have declared that there is no need for another National "Jin Crow" party. The Democratic party having ever closed that function for nearly fifty years, and that a party that attempts to be progressive in the North reactionary in the South on the Negro question, to pet the Negroes in the North and enter to the Negro inting whites of the South, shall not receive the support of the Negro voters where their votes are counted.
The Negro voters of the North was either born in the South or has relatives in the South. He regards the value of his suffrage in the North from two viewpots: First, to help him in the city or State in which he may live, and second to vote so as to help in a national sense, as more unfortunate brother in the South.
If for no other reason the colored voters of the country would be against the Progressive Party's come of their plank in the platform, the revolutionary theological process of the country of this country is entitled into for the progress of the country.
For the above-mentioned General Rights both North and South it provides. That is an act passed under the policy of the State held upon a situation for the state of the people, after an ample interval for deliberation, shall have an opportunity to vote on the question whether they desire the act to become a law not having such decision. It would not be for the right of the citizens to have the length and length and Right to the Constitution. The rule-ark of the Rights in this country. It would under the policy of the State. It would under the policy of the State to the State of the Nation. It is a power of the nation. It is a power of the nation.
In the case of the United States, it is not possible to see some of the working and working and Nationalism. It is a good part of the nation to be a standard. It is right guaranteed to be a law would at the more of the way it is in the end of the world.
In the Progressive Party's case, the policy of the State, then the comprehensive of Canada, Central and Summaries of the
meetings organized, prize contests in vegetable raising set ageing. In a word she was nowhere caught napping. The environment alone in Tuskegee, where conferences and farmers meetings are constantly held, would have equipped her sufficiently to master the situation. This young woman's story is but one of many illustrating the modern demand upon him who would go forth as a teacher. In 1920, the Tuskegee Institute, a few years ago established a regular course for the all-round school teacher.
The principle upon which this course rests is that the student teacher is a worker, a worker in his class room and a worker in his community. In his last two years in school at Tuskegee, if a student elects the profession of teaching, he must begin to take special studies in that direction. He studies the theory of education as handed down from Socrates and Quentinian, from McMurray and Booker T. Washington. In addition to this he is required to teach, actually teach in the class room under the direction of experienced teachers, both in the night school and the day school. He receives instruction in special preparation of a lesson and in the presentation of that lesson. Then he enters the class room and applies the theory of presentation. This is all done in Tuskegee Institute, which with its 1,500 students is a laboratory for such work. Around the school community are several model public schools. There are again the nursing teacher's laboratory. He makes trips to these and sees how such schools are conducted. Finally, through special arrangement, he is required to go out and teach in one of these for two weeks.
In the meantime on the trade side he is taking one trade and observing many. His specialty may be blacksmithing or mattress making, yet in the course of two or three years he picks up knowledge of the various kinds of farming, points on electricity, on shoemaking and on many other of the thirty-seven branches of industry taught at Tuskegee Institute.
But how does he gain any respectable knowledge of so many trades? Through correlation in mathematics he measures floors, and walls of the classroom. Over there a new brick building is being erected. Forth he goes with his whole class and mathematics teacher and makes computations on brick the mortar, the shingles and the like. In his geography class he studied in this way. In the grammar goes down to the commissary and with the articles in his hands studies whence and how they come, whence the raw material and how such material was converted into the texture under consideration. Cotton, fruit, meats, vegetables, iron, various kinds of wood are studied in this way. In the grammar classes students write compositions and give talks on their various trades. Thus they exchange knowledge until each pupil is familiar with many trades other than his own.
Thus correlation gets into the blood of the young teacher and long before he chooses his profession it becomes therefore, second nature to teach in this manner when he sees a position.
So much is said about individual work at Tuskegee that they impress sets about it. The job is nothing more than the job of workers for laborers. It is the only occupational instance that the academy is very elementary and it is not but differentially taught. It means the case. Tuskegee is not modern language, but in mathematics. English history Tuskegee is as the average in the South. In some or in English that rhetoric supplies. In another of several English matters, the class division to high schools. In another, the American and Media physics and art as such as do these in high school.
All these subjects can be strict to the job so that wherever lands he can meet the up-to-date teacher.

IN RE: SLOW POISON
By MAX MARTIL
Women are poking a finger in the political pie and expect to pull out some plums in the shape of votes for their respective candidates now in line for Presidential honors.
The high cost of living is affording the suffragists a means of interesting the housewives in the impending campaign, and the thirst they hope to meet in the mates. Naturally, if wife thinks these awful food prices can be brought down, she is going to be interested in the candidate she is told can work the change, and ten to one she will convince hubby he is the man to vote for.
Says Mrs. Harriman for the Democrat
"Even if you wanted to throw an egg at me you couldn't. They're too expensive. If you elect Wilson, eggs will be abundant, and everything will be cheaper."
"Does Wilson lay eggs?" innocently asks a Tafite.
In behalf of the Progressives, Miss Mary Drier, says: "Its the tariff for which the Republicans are responsible; just give us a chance to change it and everything will be cheaper." Miss Helen V. Boswell, for the G. O. P. proclaims: "The tariff has nothing to do with it. It is not a question of politics, but mainly because the housewife is incompetent in buying and allows herself to be imposed upon by the merchant." To-date the Socialists, et al. have not been heard from, and I am inclined to agree with Miss Boswell. There may be other countries where the "female of the species" is more extravagant and incompetent in the housekeeping line than she is in the U. S. A. but I don't believe it.
It is said a Frenchwoman will get a meal out of what an American woman throws away. She knows how to buy, and she knows how to cook. In Europe women regard housekeeping and homemaking as serious duties for which they are responsible, and parents see to it that their daughters gain a knowledge of them before they marry. In Germany, from the Kaiserin on down to the humblest haus-frau, life has a purpose more fraught with meaning than simply to gossip and try to outdress neighbors. German women are famouls as housewives, and they have large healthy families, and so Germany has made herself a world power to be reckoned with.
In this country we are inclined to look down upon the earth, marry, without

Special to THE NEW YORK AGENCY
LAWRENCHVILLE, VA., August 17. — The eighth annual annual of the St. Paul Parurus' Conference, which was in session July 30 and 31, was the best attended and most successful conference in an annual gathering of the Negro farmers and business men of Brunswick to discuss conditions of progress, gather information on agricultural schools, etc., and to suggest and device ways and means of promoting higher standards of living, acquisition of property, better social and material relations. The conference was organized in 1904 by Archdeacon James R. Russell, principal of St. Paul's Church in New York, and the distinction of being a real farmers' conference as the discussions are participated in by men and women who own and cultivate fields, and by those who work in the days, half of the last day being given over to the women of the county. The people bring their banks and help contribute to the school's burden of feeding and training the children. Many drive from home and return at night, others too far to do this remain over at the school until the conference closes. One of the teachers, Dr. William E. Brayer, picture or discussion on sanitation, hygiene and the prevention of disease. The State Health Department sends one of its members each week to Williams, officiated this year.
Annual Event
The conference is the great annual event of the year. Long before the days for the session notice is given out in the church, the pastor, post office and store, add other places.
Features of Conference.
The features of the conference were the splendid addresses of the president of the Women's Conference, Mrs. Bella Hayden, Dr. B. Webster Davis, the annual speaker; B. Bishop Strings, of East Carolina; Dr. Emily G. Stuart, of North Carolina; Dr. W. Hinton, International Secretary of the colloed Y. M. C. A. The program began with the usual devotional exercises, followed by a presentation of water-based larynx by Prof. J. M. Pollard, director of academe of the school, and Scott Mason, representing respectively, the school and the Women's Conference, and Miss Rosee F. Williams, on behalf, respectively of the conference and the Women's Conference.
Following is a summary of the president's booklet.
In regard to find the statistics showed in the two ministerial districts of the county the Norcross met, as of July 1, 1911, the current year not being the year of the conference, or with the buildings there, a total of $441,922.41. In the town of Lawrenceville, N. Carolina met with the buildings there, a total of $441,922.41. In the town of Lawrenceville, N. Carolina met with the buildings there, a total of $441,922.41. Personal property in the five districts in Gainesville, Jacksonville, Palm Beach, St. Petersburg and Palm Beach, a total of $780,087.54, thus bringing to the number of acres owned in the conference.
For the schools the address showed to the new schools had been established for making forty two, as against the year of last year and forty-four years against thirty seven of last year. The two-round schools were put in the year of the new co-opreative school of $500 the people giving $200 to the rest and one reprinted of $750 a new point desks put in the schools at a cost of $200. The people raising $100, the board giving the two three schools raised $300 each each each to the same like amounts from $100 to $100 two roomed schools. The cost of the country has one and a cost of 1 and 10 tobacco cultivated by the non-parents of the school. The crop is to be sold and provided to the purposes of the league. School clubs were reported as competing for the
any knowledge of it or of how to keep house, and yet expect to be happy. For months they have lived on "Doo, oo ducky darling" and expect to continue doing so. The parents lets them set out on the river of matrimony in blissful ignorance of their duties and responsibilities, and then when winds blow and rains descend their poor little matrimonial bark goes all to pieces in the stress of the storm, and mother sorrowfully wonders how it could have happened.
A man with indigestion, which "ducky darling's" cooking is likely to give him, is not always responsible for his actions, and will probably lose his even temper and make her shed tears about her shortcomings. Instead of thinking him a brute for his bluntness, leveled with the man who recognizes the fact that the man of the stomach has much to do in regulating the infections. It is certainly sordid and unromantic, but the most experienced tell us the way to reach a man's heart is through his "innards," therefore be wise, and study how to keep them properly oiled up.
HAPPINESS—the elusive—is largely dependent on good health; good health is absolutely dependent on nourishing, well cooked food. Therefore—TAME NOTICE—that a Domestic Science Course, is a paying investment, and it should be diligently pursued by each and every man or woman any man or persuade her to marry him and admire slow poison through her indigestible concoctions.
FASHION NOTES
Pleated skirts are bidding again for favor. There are singularly few of the new skirts that are made without some pleats, but they do not thicken the silhouette, being narrow and close together.
The latest Parisian models show the pannier effects, which seem to be growing popular. Pur trimmings of all kinds are to be a feature of the winter costumes, and velvet trimmings are also to be fashionable. The long nap plush, being somewhat cheaper than fur, is another trimming which will be much used.
Long skirts are to be popular for evening wear.
Purple in all shades is a fall and winter color that will be much worm, and there is a wide choice in red, blue, green and brown.
Skirts and buttons of amber is the "derner eri" for trimming on fall costumes.
REMEMBER THAT
There is absolutely no excuse for uncleanliness in this land of bath tubs. It is foolish to try and cover up liver spots and other unsightly blemishes on the face with paint and powder. Nature is telling you there is some internal disarrangement: reach that and your skin will clear up. ...

The total amount paid for the extension over $100 each. One league bought and paid for a school organ at a cost of $78.00. The report on the taxes showed that total amount of money paid for the rite of the $100,000. Of this the Negroes paid $15,245.28, or about one-sixth. The conference adopted a resolution to approve of a plan to establish a reality and total amount of equipment object shall be buy up land and sell on easy terms, establish an agency to purchase fertiliser and other supplies and to help its members get ready to help themselves.
The conference on the first day was about 2,000.
Managers and Teachers at Cheyney.
Special to TIME New York Age
CHENYK, Pa. August 19 — July marked the recurrence of the Chenyk Summer School, which was held yearly by the Institute for Colored Youth Chenyk, Pa. One of its interesting features is that most unique conference between the faculty and students has been attended by the老师 who attended the school. Seldom, even at the large Northern universities, have attended such a conference even then the matter considered has been disciplinary in its nature. But here, on ground made historic by the Underground School, the teacher who conducted this human chain toward freedom, and the descendants of the slaves who sought this freedom, meet once yearly to discuss ways and means of adding escape from slavery of the body, but to agree on ways and means of adding escape from the slavery of ignorance. Nowhere else is there such an opportunity for young men and women of both races to unite in so many ways. With the beginning of the summer school the managers inaugurated the annual conference, first held in 1913, and then to hear both the needs and the cheering results of the work of past sessions. The following interesting points were brought out in the conference.
That this year, the greatest number of teachers came from Maryland. North Carolina and Pennsylvania from Pennsylvania, Delaware District of Columbia, Tennessee, New Jersey, South Carolina, Georgia and Indiana. In the past, we have sent 674 teachers and approximately 20,000 pupils who will direct or indirectly affect the effect of Chevery's influence. That the need which those who attended our school have now increased as follows: Our half feel their need for manual training; primary methods rank next; then English; and secondary methods rank last. Another very significant fact was that, with but one exception every teacher at attending the session board of the school through the school year, was not a pleased customer to the best advertisement. Otherwise a teacher whose name have been satisfied is the teacher who has been a successful institution. In fact every year, because of limited dormitory accommodations, the Chevery Summer School is compelled to turn away numerous
It is encouraging to the officials to be able to announce that funds have been subscribed and contracts have been accepted for an appointment to the information and communication bureau. A new inbound and competition bureau has only recently been completed. Also plans are under way to replace the oil lamp lighting with a complete incandescent lamp. Those who come have in many cases been in contact with the graduates of the recent winter session of the institute for education Youth. The institute and the department of civil assistance their peers and general counsel of social service in the county where they have taken their training. The chief suggestions that present students make are for a longer session, the establishment of a business corps, and for a seasonal visitor who will make the round from their berths and make suggestions no to improvement.
The Republicans Electors of the State of New York are hereby requested, pursuant to the provisions of Congress bill of the have been 1911, to convene a State Convention to be held at Convocation Hall in the Vilhene of Saratoga Springs, on Wednesday, the 36th day of September, 1912, at twelve o'clock noon, in the State Capitol building, legislative governor, secretary of state, controller, attorney-general, treasurer, state engineer and surveyor and associate judges of the Court of Appeals, to convene such other transit such other may properly come before the convention.
Each assembly district in the state will be entitled to representation in accordance with the basis established by the State convention of 1865. A scheduled representation in an annexed building number of delegates to which the several assembly districts are entitled. WILLIAM BARNES, Jr.
Chairman.
LAFAYETTE GLEASON,
Secretary.
To the Enrolled Republican Electors of
the State of New York:
At a meeting of the Republican State
Committee held July 20, 1912, the Rep-
ublican State Convention was called to
convene at Saratoga Springs, on
nearly September 21, 1912. For the
purpose of calling candidate for the
northern, lieutenant-governor, secretary
of state, comptroller, attorney-general,
state treasurer, state engineer and sur-
veyor and two associate judges of the
Court of Appeals.
The unit representation in that
convention is the assembly district.
Each assembly district is entitled to one vote for sovereignty and another vote for each one thousand votes cast for President in 1903, or major fraction. The names of candidates for delegates may be placed upon the primary ballot in two ways, first, by designation by the party for the assembly district, or by governor for the enrolled Republican votes within the assembly district to the number of at least 5 per cent of the total enrollment and not less than 4 per cent of the total votes for governor in 1910. As no assembly district has cast over 10,000 Republican votes for governor in 1910, the highest possible number of petitioners for the purpose of placing in nomination candidates for delegates to the State Convention is 400. Ample notice is hereby given to the 534,000 enrolled Republicans in this state of their opportunity to contend for their votes for governor and to delegate to the state convention, so that the nominees of that convention may be named after the fullest and freest expression of the thought and will of the electorate of the State of New York.
The administration of the affairs of the state since January 1, 1911, when the Democratic party assumed full control of the state, aroused widespread and positive conviction that would be intimated to the best intention of the people of New York. The intent of the state legislature that control was clearly disclosed by the result of the election of members of assembly in 1911 when the Democratic plurality of 67,401 for governor in 1911 and the Republican plurality of 100,136 in 1911.
The opportunity of the electorate to express its determination to make a change in the state government can be made in the agency of the Republican party. It is the duty of every Republican to participate in the primary to be held September 17th in order that the Republican be represented at Hartfordoga Springs will be implemnted with the responsibility reading upon them as the representatives of the 554,000 enrolled Republicans of New York, to be relegated to a majority of the electorate to offer information and data whose character is a sure guarantee that if elected the government of the State of New York will be restored to the foreward guard of efficiency and constructive purpose.

"A party torn is under by factional strife, while it is hugely lost the authority that it has been abandoned, while it is gaining the confidence people to whom it surrendered. Honest at heart, I believe President Taft has sought to win the good will of the South at the expense of the Negro Nation has been gutted." Today the South is up in New Jersey and smiles him and his party, the seats of power, while the Negroes who would "be" in almost solidity with him are leaving, some in desolation to the South, over the party, other in New Jersey. Mr. Roosevelt and his advisers of the party have the courage to out-Respect Roosevelt. It was its championship of justice its high ground on great moral into being and gave it the base of life. In proportion as it has abandoned the party, it has compromised on the great fundamentalations of liberty and justice which gave

I cannot begin to tell you all the benefits I have received since the arrival of the two specimens of Leadstones you sent me.
For many years I was convinced that no person lived who was more unfortunate than myself. Loss in business; death of loved ones and other troubles too numerous to mention, were driving me to a state of frenzy. A friend told me to write you for information regarding the system of two Leadstones and their power.
As a last resort I did so, and later purchased two of them. Since then the great change in my career has been so remarkable as to be almost beyond belief. My business is rapidly, and not a thing has occurred to mar my state of happiness. You are at liberty to use this letter as reference, for I believe it is my duty to let the world know of the wonderful change in my life, that I believe was brought about

I was all out of sorts myself and wondered what had happened to cause so much discord all at once. Finally I remembered the Loadstones and began to search for them. A few days later I found them turned in in my machine head, where one of the children had put them. Now everything, as far as I am concerned, is moving along nicely, but my husband, who laughed when the Loadstones first arrived, has changed his tune, and has sent you an order for a pair for himself.

George R. Bohoe, who was once smiled upon by royalty and wealth, is living in Sheffield, England. Mentally and physically he is in good condition considering his age and the high life he led for a number of years, but his wallet and pockets are not proficient filled now with the coin of the realm which kept him steady company once upon a time. Bohoe is still in the show hui-
'A recent pen picture of Bohoe described him as a big, straight-net nery man of color. His white teeth shiny in bright contrast with his dunty shine as he smiled glocely over his great trimmps; but there was not a trace of repining over the keen kindly way in which the world had gone late. He is a man whose genial, yet dignified personality impresses one apart from his history.'
Although it was many years ago that Bohee taught the late King Edward VII on the banjo, he continues to use his association with royalty as stock in trade, and his professional card reads: "George H. Bohee, Entertainer and Tutor, to the late King Edward VII, when Prince of Wales. Late of the famous Royal Bohee Brothers." The information on the card does not seem to be viewed in the same favorable light by theatrical managers as some years ago, as the banjoist, when he heard of, had been in Sheffield nine weeks waiting for an engagement.
How the Bohoe Brothers left the United States in 1881 with Haverley's Minstrels and attracted attention of royalty as entertainers is little known to the present generation. It was the Bohoe Brothers who first introduced the banjo song and dance in England, and for a long time they enjoyed a brilliant success as society entertainers.
Haverley's Minstrels were appearing at Her Majesty's Theatre and the minstrels were a big hit. Within nine months after the company had opened George B. Bohoe received a command to go before the late king, then Prince of Wales, at Marlborough House. Princess Alexandra, with Prince George and the Duke of Clarence, were among those present. So pleased was the late King Edward VIII with Bohoe's work on the banjo that several months later he retained the colored musician as tutor.
In telling of his ups and downs since his residence in England Bohoe recently touchstaffed the following information:
"I brought a number of fresh songs with me from the States. I wrote the original version of 'A Boy's Best Friend Is His Mother,' and made 5,000 pounds, ($30,000) out of it. There is another version of it, but mine was the first. Another song of mine was 'Hark, Baby, Hark,' a slave song. I wrote a good deal at that time.
"The late King became interested in the banjo, and in 1884 I had the pleasure of giving him a number of lessons. I remember teaching him a little piece called 'Whispers of Love.' But his Majesty was not really adapted for an instrument like the banjo; his fingers were not long and nimble enough.
"Our success while it lasted was overwhelming. We appeared several times before royal personages, and I played also before the late Mr. Gladstone and Lord Salisbury, and Duke of Portland at Wetbeck Abbey during one Doncaster meeting. It was the meeting when Dalmeyn won the Portland Plate. In one year my brother and I shared 30,000 pounds ($150,000) between us.
"And it all went. Horses—washed down with charmener." And he laughed again at the pleasant recollection.
"I have known Sheffield many years. I opened here at the old Sheffield Royal

HARLEM HAS CABARET.
On Wednesday evening, August 21, the roof of Young's Casino, 134th street and Park avenue, was formally opened to the public, and a goodly number attended the cabaret show on the roof and the vandeville performance down stair, conducted under the management of the Quality Amusement Company.
Although the vaudeville performance was enjoyed, chief interest was centered in the cabaret show on the roof, where music and song, multi-colored lights and summer zephyr's played prominent parts. After the cabaret performance the patrons descended to the hall where dancing was in order until early Thursday a. m.
FROGS IN REHEARSALS.
Rebearaals are being held nightly for the big minstrel show to be presented by the Frogs at Young's Casino, 134th street and Park avenue, Labor Day, Monday, September 2, and judging from the enthusiasm with which both the old-timers and youngsters have entered into their work the performance will be very entertaining.
All the members participating will appear under cork, and they assert that in their make-up it will be extremely difficult for their best friends to recognize them. In the minstrel first part, entitled "In the Garden of King Frog," comic songs and solos will be feelingly rendered, while the afterpiece, "Slew-foot Pete, or Who Tickled Lize?" will be an antidote for the worst attack of the grouch.
Monday afternoon a matinee dance will be given, the feature of which will be the ladies' golden contest.
Monday's entertainment will be given for the benefit of the Frogs' home fund. There will be dancing after the minstrel show.
"SOAP8" AT ATLANTIC CITY.
The third annual pilgrimage of the Soap Box Minstrels of Quakerdom to Atlantic City took place Saturday evening. This delightful resort was packed and the crowd was all agog to be on hand to greet this body of amateur entertainers. Fitzgerald's Auditorium had an audience of eight hundred to see the performance, divided into straight minstrelsy and sketch. It was a pocket edition of the minstrels' last spring performance at the Academy of Music, Philadelphia, and it was strange, this matter of sentiment, the men wanting an ample bill and the gentler sex a short program and long dance, the men winning.
As to the essay, some parts were搀, showing lack of rehearsal, while others were indeed meritorious. One of the novelties was the advent of Andrew Stevens as interlocutor, and he met the occasion capitally, especially in his badinage and foils with Gratton and his witticisms on Webster. Some of the men now realize the value of rehearsal, and it was obvious the disappointment of the hard-working Gratton, whose work for that reason was a degree perfunctory. The bill was made up of jokes, songs, dialogue and monologue, in which James Howard, Edward Webster, Percy Warfield, Oscar Capps, Albert Curry and William Gratton took part in the first scene. Capps was in fairly good voice, with a new song. Webster was in fine fettle and won the biggest applause. Booker failed to repeat his Philadelphia success, and no doubt from lack of practice.
The funny hit was made by Curry, who was really funny in his song of "Beans." Warfield was suffering from a bad cold, but bravely struggled in the number assigned him. Howard and the accompaniment seemed at variance, and his number was without extra significance. The olio was made up of story telling by the veteran George Benson; dancing and dialogue of much merit by Warfield and Lancester, as well as a play entitled "Wanted—An Attendant," the parts being well taken by Norris Warrick, J. H. Turner, Albert Hughes and Henry Jones. Of course John B. Morris was musical director. After the performance there was a
two hour dinner. From Maine to California was the audience represented. It was made up of pretty and prettily grown women, and after the play every refectory in this resort was crowded with diners and winers. The usual banquet took place the day following at the Bay State Hotel, where a superbly cooked dinner was served and enjoyed, and where post-prandial entertainment took the form of song, recitation and story telling. This was a relief to the usually stupid attitudes in speeches at such affairs.
IN THE WORLD OF SPORT
POOR Jack Johnson! It is not to be implied that the champion is in a class with the proverbial church mouse and is an object of charity—far be it to put him in the poverty-striken class with his big bank account, diamonds and motor cars. When he is spoken of as "Poor Jack Johnson" the idea is to assume an attitude of sympathy for him, for it seems that the "door of hope" of which we hear so much has been shut in his face and the keys thrown away.
Since Johnson defeated Jeffries the "door or hope" has been slightly ajar until recently. Ambitious "white hopes," urged by friends of an extremely hopeful state of mind, have sought to make it possible to regain the championship title for the white race, but their hoping has been hopeless. Johnson has stood in the "door of hope," awaiting the arrival of a "white hope," not with the intention of relinquishing the title, but with a view to increasing the size of his bank account. His battles with "white hopes," however, since his fight with Jeffries have been few and far between. But it has not been his fault.
With no white material to work on the champion was finally induced to agree to fight Jeannette in New York before the St. Nicholas Athletic Club on September 25. Johnson is one colored man who refuses to be considered cheap, and the amount he asked for appearing in a ten-round bout with Jeannette would have bought him twelve more automobiles and many gallons of gasoline. The sporting writers were getting busy writing about the proposed fight and the devotees of the fistic art were becoming deeply interested, when the Boxing Commission stepped in and advised the promoters to call the match off, which has been done.
The reason assigned by the members of the Boxing Commission for refusing to grant the St. Nicholas Athletic Club permission to hold the boxing exhibition was that they thought it best to keep Johnson from appearing, in New York for the good of the boxing game. They were not clear as to how the leading exponent of the manly art of self defense would cause boxing to deteriorate, and it is hardly probable that they could explain if given an opportunity to do so. Of course the action taken by the Boxing Commission was not due to Johnson's color. Such a charge most likely would be deemed unjust by them. But if the heavyweight champion was a white man how different things would have been.
If the word "inconsistency" was not in the English language there would be times when the question of color prejudice would not be raised by the dusky citizens of this country. But so often do we observe instances in which the color of one's skin (not circumstances) altens cases that we have grown to regard with suspicion this "Malice toward none, good will and equality opportunity for all" spirit which is supposed to pervade every nook and corner of the United States.
It is difficult for colored citizens to understand why the leading fighter of the world is refused the privilege to exhibit his fistic prowess in New York when big, burly white fighters appear before the local clubs in boxing matches which are brutal in every respect and are oftimes so sickening that the police have to stop the gory and badly battered contestants. Such contests, it will be presumed, are regarded with high favor by the Boxing Commission. In a match between Johnson and Jeannette, although both are big men, the absence of brutality would have been a pleasing feature, as they are boxers of great skill
Only a few days before giving out a decision on the proposed Johnson-Jeannette bout Jeannette defeated Jeff Maden at the Garden A. C., receiving $1,300 for what the writers termed a burlesque. Here was an instance of a
explored fighter beating up a white fighter—something not relished; but it was not suspected that there was any prejudice against two colored fighters beating up one another.
"Bat" Masterson, the fair-minded fight expert on the Mormon Telegraph, in commenting on the attitude of the Boxing Commission does not think the color line had so much to do with the case as it was a question of pull. He says in part:
The McMahon boys were indeed lucky in having the Johnson-Jennette bout called off. Whether they were responsible for the cancellation of the match, or whether the match was stopped by their former ruling coach, that Johnson would not be allowed to fight in New York, is not quite clear at this time. Some say the McMahons voluntarily called off the match, while others insist that the Boxing Commissioners, "for the good of the sport," forced them to do so. McMahon, while the thing is supposed to be forgotten, the public will learn why the match didn't take place.
For the sake of the McMahon Brothers, it is perhaps a good thing the match didn't go through, for the reason that it looked like a big financial bloomer. But so far as "the good of the sport" is concerned, that's all the bunk. Johnson appearing here in a ten-round bout with Jeanette wouldn't hurt the sport half as much as a number of those who are now connected with it are doing.
The row over the match was not because it was likely to hurt the sport. It was largely on account of play where the battle was to be staged. In Jeanette Johnson made a mistake in not selecting the right club. Had he agreed to fight at Madison Square Garden, everything would have been lovely, and the goose would now be swinging from the dome of the big arena. Johnson was, therefore, unfortunate in picking the battleground.
When Jilly Gibson went to Chicago to get the champion's signature to an agreement to fight Jeanette ten rounds at Madison Square Garden he doubtless knew what he was doing. He knew if he could get Johnson's consent to fight at the Garden the match would go through without opposition from the Boxing Commissioners or any one else. But how different it was when the St. Nicholas Athletic Club bagged the game? If this isn't exactly the situation, then the sporting fraternity of this city is entitled to another guess.
Conceding that Mr. Masterson's version is the correct one, the fact remains that the "door of hope" is still closed against the heavyweight champion of the world, and that he is harried from appearing in boxing exhibitions in the majority of cities in this country as well as in England. France and Australia are yet friendly disposed to have him appear in the ring, but if the color prejudice germ, which is so perniciously active in this country, is transplanted to such cities as Paris and Sidney, there will not be a place where Johnson can defend the championship title, unless it be at the North or South poles.
Cuban Stars, 2; Lincoln, 1.
Polo Grounds was turned over to two colored teams and colored baseball fans last Saturday, and the home of the New York Giants (the only white team of note bearing the name of "giants") was the scene of an exciting and pretitiously contested game between the Lincoln Giants and the Cuban Stars, the Cubans winning, 2 to 1. For eight innings neither side scored, and the game was nip and tuck. The contest was a pitchers' battle between Mendez, the dusky twirler of the Cuban Stars, and "Cyclone" Williams. Both had an abundance of speed, a large assortment of curves and good control. In the eighth Moran singled, went to second on Garcia's infield out and scored on Hidalgo's hit to left, Hidalgo came home on Magrinat's double.
In the ninth innning the Lincoln's started trouble by using pinch batters and scored one run. Grant batted for Pettus and singled. Taylor batted for Moore and also singled. Grant moving to third While Taylor was being thrown out trying to steal second Grant tallied. The work of Chacon at short was one of the features of the gtime. The score:
