ATLANTA, GA, Sept. 17.—On Saturday morning, September 14, at 4 o'clock, sixteenth B. M. C. of the G. U. O. O. F. broke up in a row without having chosen a new Grand Master. Benjamin J. Davis of Atlanta, lost in his fight to win the Grand Mastership, having been out-generalled by Edward H. Morris of Chicago, on every hand. When it looked to Morris as if Davis was going to make an effort to capture the convention by force, the sprang a coup on the Atlanta man by suddenly adjourning the meeting. No election of officers was held, and according to the laws of the order the old officers will hold over until the next session of the B. M. C., which will be held in 1914 at Boston. Grand Master Morris adjourned the session of the B. M. C. while balloting was going on for Grand Master. The Davis and Morris supporters were marching about the hall yelling for the election of their favorite candidates. It is charged that Henry Lincoln Johnson lost his head by sending for the police, although there was no need for their interference up to that time. While the scenes attending the balloting for Grand Master were exciting, there were no signs of rowdyism. Some of the Morris adherents assert that the police was summoned in the interest of Ben Davis, and that had not Grand Master Morris adjourned the convention similar tactics as used at Baltimore would have been resorted to by Davis and his lieutenants. Despite the fact that Benjamin J. Davis was in his home town and dominates the Georgia branch of Odd Fellows, he failed miserably to stampede the convention in his favor. Edward H. Morris ruled with an iron hand, and having worked with Davis, Johnson and the other members of the "Old Guard," was familiar with their steam-follower methods, which he thwarted. VOL XXV. No. 51.

The bitter fight between Morris and Davis for Grand Master of the G. U. Q. O. F., marks the passing of the "Old Guard" which has been in power for many years. At the Baltimore B. M. C. Morris, Davis, "Link" Johnson and Houston worked together and ran the operation as they saw fit. They relied the efforts of those who sought to start a new set of officers, and succeeding in courting J. C. Ashby as administrator of Fallen Journal. At Atlanta the disintegration of the "Tul Guard" was noticeable from the beginning. Benjamin J. David Henry Lincoln Johnson and W. L. Houston find up on one side, while Edward H. Morrin, Henry P. Slaughter, W. David Brown and the other officers of the B.M.C. formed a rival faction. That the intense rivalry for Grand Mastership would bring about chaos was predicted from the beginning. Before the B. M. C. convened Benjamin J. Davis was confident of success. There were many who secretly opposed his election but were fearful that he was in such a commanding position that to show any opposition toward him would mean trouble for them. However, when Edward H. Morris announced that he was a candidate for re-election a movement was inaugurated to defeat Davis, which stealthy grew and the opposition became so formidable that Davis saw the handwriting the wall when the balloting for Grand Master began early Saturday morning. Opposition to Davis was first shown by delegates from Alabama, Florida and Texas. Slaughter Wins in His Fight. Davis was not only defeated TAFT GAINING GROUND Tide Turning in His Favor—Reports from Various Sections of the Country Bring Cheer—Independent Vote for Taft. Special to The New York Age WASHINGTON, D. C., Sept. 18.—Reports from all parts of the country show that President Taft is steadily gaining ground in the Presidential race. While Roosevelt is in the West drawing large crowds the managers of Mr. Taft's campaign do not regard the Bull Mooser's trip seriously. It is pointed out that William Jennings Bryan also spoke to thousands when he was the candidate of the Democratic party, but morbid curiosity prompted the people to turn out to see him just as they are doing for Roosevelt. It is the silent independent vote that usually elects a President, and good news is coming in from North, East and West that the independent voters will support Mr. Taft in November and make the for whatever losses the G. O. P. sustained by desertions to the third term candidate. Not all do the national headquarters at New York and Chicago report a radical change in popular sentiment, but state observers, and local observers, write from all parts of the country, concerning the assertions of the general of the Republican army. From New York they are the reports disarmed, and there is no evidence the nomination of Oscar S. Straus has lent strength to the Third Term party, although it has discouraged both Republicans and Democrats, from whose ranks Mr. Straus is expected to draw votes. Grand Master, but failed to have Henry P. Slaughter removed as editor of the Odd Fellows Journal. Slaughter will be re-elected at the meeting of the Sub-Committee of Management, which meets at Philadelphia in January. A peculiar fight developed for the leadership of the Washington, D. C., Odd Fellows between Henry P. Slaughter and W. L. Hosston, in which Slaughter came out victorious. The proposition to move the headquarters of the Odd Fellows Journal from Washington to Philadelphia was carried, although the delegates did not succeed in abolishing the Supreme Court, the motion having been lost. The B. M. C. was attended by seven thousand Negroes, representing every section of the country. Georgia was represented by nine hundred delegates and Mississippi came next with 301. Order Has Large Membership Grand Secretary James F. Needham in his report stated that in the order were 5,234 lodges, 3,993 households, with a total of 9,227 lodges working under the jurisdiction of the Sub-Committee of Management. His report also included: P. G. M. Councils, 275; patriarchies, 153; juveniles, 1,020; district grand lodges, 39; district grand households, 30. Number of financial branches up to July 15, 1912, 10,750. A summary of the total assets of property owned by the Sub-Committee of Management and total liabilities was given by L. N. Porter, chairman of the Grand Auditors' Committee, as follows: Cash, $8,619.26; furniture and fixtures, $3,000.50; East Morris street property, $3,000; Real Estate Trust Company stock, preferred, $8,000; supplies on From the headquarters in New York Chairman Hiles reports many highly favorable indications. From Chicago come like reports from National Committeeman Mulvan and Representative Diekema. From Washington National Committeeman Perkins telegraphs in the most encouraging tone, and from Los Angeles it is learned that the conduct of the Third Term party in the recent local election there was such as disgust and alienate many who had purposed to support Roosevelt and Johnson, marked ballots being employed at most of the polling places. From Chicago comes the following from one of the heads of the organization: I have been here since Monday and have spent most of my time looking over the field and getting ready to help to push along the organization. I am satisfied that they are doing everything they can to push the cause along. I am also happy that we have weeks ahead of all over getting better, and I know it is in Indiana. E. H. Schmidt, of Indianapolis, writes: As to the political situation, we are making headway and a very substantial lot of it. Our business people are now falling in line, and I know a number of instances where their employees are doing likewise. Prosperity talk and well-written and noncopied to the meat of their argument. Among the farmers the high prices they have received for their production the last few years are holding them in line. Our legal questions are being slowly subordinated to the new questions of protecting tariff policies and consummating production contracts in order to meet the estimated beef demand. I believe we are the State for Texas, our full success, thanks to our longer ashes, formerly so seeming to have lost a good part of their enthusiasm. We are also to the responsibility of keeping the livelihoods of our people. Since our State Convention our fellow have donated their clothing and headquarters, $26,551.13; printing plant, $23,812.31; supplies, Journal plant, $25.95. Total assets, $194,008.15. Grand Treasurer Julius C. Johnson reported that during the past two years the receipts had amounted to $88,118.66 and the expenditures, $88,018.66. The officers of the Sub-Committee of Management are: Edward H. Morris, Grand Master; Henry Lincoln Johnson, Deputy Grand Master; James F. Needham, Grand Secretary; Julius C. Johnson, Grand Treasurer; W. David Brown, Nicole A. Sheehy and C. A. House, Grand Directors. The members of the Supreme Court are: B. J. Davis, chief justice; W. L. Houston, assistant justice; W. R. Morris, assistant justice; Harry S. Cummings, attorney general. W. L. Francis, clerk. Owing to the failure of the Odd Fellows to elect officers, the Household of Ruth deferred selecting new officers until the next session of the B. M. C. While attending the B. M. C. the visitors were royally entertained and left Atlanta with a good word for Atlanta and its people. It is really surprising the progress we have made. The Maine and Vermont elections have served at once to demonstrate the hopelessness of a victory for the Third Term party, and to prove that the expected Democratic landslide will not materialize this year. Comparing the 4,000 majority which Governor-elect Haines received this year with the 31,000 majority by which President Taft carried the state four years ago, the Democratic writers have been able to make something of a showing and, in large measure, to distract attention from the fact that two years ago Governor Plaisted, Democrat, was elected by a majority of nearly 9,000, which this year has been converted into a majority for the Republican candidate of practically 4,000. Republican managers have all along admitted that were the election to be Governor Wilson would be elected, but they have been equally confident that about this time the tide would turn, and that on November 4 it would be running strongly in the direction of President Taft, and that Governor Wilson would be encouraged that 18,000 votes should have been overturned in Maine by the date set for the turning of the tide. And they believe that both Vermont and Maine have shown consistently that the country is certain to go Democratic in the coming election. Haines Repudiates Rosevelt The repudiation by Governor-elect Haines of the Theodore Roosevelt has proved already a body blow to the aspirant for a third term, and many have been led to wonder how much credence is to be put in similar statements emanating from him. Right on top of Mr. Haines's repudiation comes the announcement that the use of the name of Robert J. MacFarland, president of the Union League Club, by the colonel in an appeal for support is entirely without his sanction or warrant. The pitiful showing of the third termers in the recent Michigan primaries has been followed by the repudiation of Mr. Roosevelt by the Michigan suffragists, who declare that they have seen through the viceroyalty of the third termer theocracy of the cause of women's suffrage and will have none of him. From Ohio it is learned that the suffragists in that state are equally convinced, by the result of the constitution vote, that Colonel Roosevelt sacrificed them to his ambitions, their plank being the one important feature of the new constitution which failed of adoption. Another phase of the Bull Moose campaign which is being seriously criticised is the failure of Roosevelt to make public the source of his receipts and the directs for which they were expended during the pre-convention campaign. It is declared singularly inconsistent for one who has laid so much stress on publicity for campaign contributions to avail himself of a technicality of the law which absolves him from disclosing the sources of the immense sums then expended in his behalf. It is suggested that publicity of disbursements would throw an interesting light on those fake careers which were instituted in Roosevelt's behalf, confessedly "for psychological purposes only." Indications also point to satisfaction in being made into the strength of the term candidate to the exporter of the national committee, which is since John Maynard Harlan alone has tried to expound the failures of his professions. SOUTHERN DOCTORS FRAUNED Dr. P. A. Johnson Says Their Efficiency Was a Revelation to Him. Great Opportunities in the South for Efficient Physicians and Doctors. Dr. P. A. Johnson, ex-president of the National Medical Association, and who served three terms as chairman of the Executive Committee, is of the opinion that the South should be given great credit for the doctors and surgeons. This conclusion was formed while he was attending the recent session of the National Medical Association at Tuskegee Institute. At when he participated in the interim clinics and came in contact with the physicians and surgeons of the South whose efficiency was in the nature of a revelation to him. Dr. Johnson became so deeply interested in one of the cases during the session of the National Medical As O sociation that he is treating the patient by mail, although the case is an aggravated one. The patient is a 16-year-old girl who lives about thirty miles to Tuskegee. For tea months she has been the owner of a doctor who was treating her for pulmonary tuberculosis. An examination by Dr. Johnson showed that she had Bright's disease. Emaciated and weighing only a few pounds, the sick girl has not been able to sleep in bed for five months for fear of smothering in death. Since she was given medical aid at Tuskegee Institute her condition is much improved. The need of additional capable doctors in the South is further emphasized by Dr. Johnson in relating a case in which a male patient, 50 years old, was being treated for indigestion when an examination by doctors attending the session of the National Medical Association showed that he was suffering with the enlargement of the heart. Dr. Johnson in many parts of the South no record is kept of the death of a Negro, a condition he did not think existed anywhere in the United States. PROMOTED TO MAJOR United States' Army Now Has Major in the Person of Charles Young of the Ninth Cavalry—Is Well Liked by Brother Officers. Special to THE NEW YORK AGE Washington, Sept. 17.—Among the promotions announced last week at the War Department was that of Capt. Charles Young of the Ninth Cavalry to the grade of Major in the same regiment. May. Young is the only Negro officer in the army who was graduated from West Point, and is the only man of his race to reach the grade of Major in the line of the regular army.

Since his examination for promotion a few months ago he has been stationed at Monrovia, Liberia, as military attache Maj. Young is assisting the Liberian government in the reorganization and instruction of the army. May Young's army record is without a blemish. He is well liked by army officers generally. GRAND LODGE WINS SUIT, Special to THE NEW YORK AGE BOSTON, MASS., Sept 18—Prince Hall Grand Lodge and co-defendants won their suit brought by William L. Reed, the court deciding in favor of the grand bodge and Frank E. Turpin, John D. Taylor, Edward Everett Brown, Robert W. Brown, William H. Jackson, Jeremiah N. Kellog and William G. Butler. The suit was a bill in equity, and the case was heard on demurrers Tuesday and was sustained. LOCKE TO TEACH AT HOWARD. LOUCE TO TEACH AT HOWARD. While visiting New York this week Dr. C. H. Moore, dean of the Teach- er's Department of the University, announced that Alan Leroy Locke, the first Neer in the United States to wear a Biblio scholarship will become a member of the faculty and teach English at the university. Mr Locke under a dishlining as a student. Upgran- tations at Harvard he took a course at Oxford University, England, where he was regarded as one of the most promi- ning students at this well-known insti- titution. While Woodrow Wilson, the Democratic nominee for President, is making it apparent to all that he does not care to affiliate with Tammany Hall, the majority members of the National Collegiate Democratic League are an equally important that the Negro members of Tammany Hall keep far, far away. In this effort to corral the Negro vote throughout the country for Wilson the members of the league do not favor the idea of being "ally assisted" by Tammanyites, the other members it is dealing with the Tammany Hall to take an active part in the campaign, in fact to run things themselves. The difference of opinions promises to develop a lively fight which Woodrow Wilson will have to settle. The members of the National Colored Democratic League do not take kindly to the pipe of peace smoker in which Bishop Alexander Walters and Robert N. Wood were principals has week, and which resulted in the invasion of Tammany Hall men at the headquarters of the league. In full command of the situation, Bishop Walters is said to have been persuaded to form an alliance with the Tammany Hall men, his idea being that as a Christian gentleman he should promote peace and harmony in the ranks of the colored Democrats. Many of Bishop Walters' hentennants, however, who are practical politicians, were called to boot by the Walters-Wood exhibition in the nine light the Bishop and claim that the new alliance is a Wood victory. It is pointed out by them that on the executive committee of the National Colored Democratic League New York has newly a half dozen members. An appeal has been made to Woodrow Wilson to throw out the Wood men. System Residential Alliance Thomas Wallace Swana, who is chairman of the Bureau of Publicity of the league, is one of the Walners men to resent the new order of things, and has issued the following statement to the press: The statement sent out reporting a chance in the officers of the National Colored Democratic League is absolutely misleading and authorized, by any action of the elected Executive Committee. The "crazy quilt" combination of malicious and fondamental Democrats in a result machinations of influences, who, for the most part, are inimical to the success of the National Democratic ticket. Bishop Wallers has acted in absolute good faith from the insincerity of the disgusting episode, with fondness for lack of machinations of influences, who are not bum dude members of the League, are determined at the destruction of the organization, mainly for the reason that the apparent success of the League spells the death-skull of all the molly organ infiltration which have heretofore been in stench in the nostrils of true party men. The sinister friends of Gov. Wilson need have no alarm, because of the few hours the atmosphere will be cleared, and the ticket headed by Wilson and Marshall will receive a ticket. Our National Democrat ever polled New Jersey Paper Against Tarmany Influence. The National Conservator, a Democratic paper published in Newark, N. J., makes war on the Wood faction as follows: "It is foolish to attempt further denial or evasion of the situation confronting Negro democracy. From the June conference of the National Colored Democratic League at Baltimore, there has been trouble and trouble spelled with a big 'T.' Mr. Wood has assumed the role of aggressor. Bishop Walters, true to his divine calling as a leader of men, has sought from the beginning of hostilities to avoid strife. The distinguished churchman and heroic leader of civic righteousness accepted literally the divine injunction, "when thy enemy smites thee, turn the other cheek." "Through the charity of Bishop Walters, and upon his initiative, Mr. Wood, who up to the present moment is not a lona file member of the league, was appointed chairman of the executive committee at the Baltimore conference. At a subsequent meeting of the executive committee, held at the residence of Bishop Walters, in New York City, on August 5th, because of attempted treachery to the president of the league, Mr. Wood was summarily removed from his post of chairman and J. H. W. Howard of Pennsylvania, who is anything but a grafting politician, appointed to fill the place. "Among the causes which led to the establishment of Wood, was not only the suspected disloyalty of his organization to Governor Wilson but the allegations connected to a letter written by a man whoasted that he was a navy officer Mr. Wood, in which the good Bishop was accused of episcopal irregularities. It was pointed out to Mr. Wood that such charges were simply the rumblings of a perverted imagination' and could not he maintained, and to the credit of the Treasury Hall Negro chief, he immediately ordered the reading of said letter stopped. From the hour that Mr. Wood was kicked out of office by Bishon Walters, he and his cohorts have pestered the life out of the white folks, managing the election of Gov. Wilson. The National Conservator has supported Gov. Wilson from the beginning of his candidacy for public place. It has supported him without condition, and unminimized of personal loss or the opposition of his powerful opponents as the very head and front of the offending in his home State. It has no apologies to make for, its past and present attitude. We believe sincerely in the declarations and principles of Mr. Wilson, and we accept the record of his performances as citizen, educator, and publicist as the justification for our faith. Truly, new occasions, teach new duties! A new occasion has truly arisen out of the ashes of the twenty years of sleep. The Democracy of the nation has a fighting chance to win the Presidency, and to save the nation from its enemies. But this redemptions, cannot and will not follow, unless the Democratic candidate and his managers fulfill the spirit of the convention which made this unique situation possible. If white Tammany is offensive to decent white men how can Negro (Tammany) servitors be acceptable? We put this question in absolute good faith to Gov. Wilson and the managers of the Democratic National Campaign Committee, and suspend judgment awaiting reply." BARREO NEGRO DEMOCRATS Although Virginia Legislature Enacted Primary Law Allowing Colored Voters Were Refused the Right to Cast Their Ballots in Richmond Primary. Special to THE NEW YORK AGE. Richmond, Va., Sept. 17.—Richmond is on the verge of a great change in its municipal management. A commission form of government is to be inaugurated the beginning of the next year. The Democrats held a primary last week for the purpose of nominating five candidates for the first administrative board to be voted for in the election to be held in November. Under the new primary law enacted by the last Legislature colored Democrats should have been allowed to participate in the primary had they so desired, and there were a few headed by Glen R. Jackson, a Mago Democrat, of long standing, who offered to vote, but were turned down because they were not white Democrats, and not one of them voted. There are about a thousand qualified filers. Among them in Richmond, many of whom were deeply interested as to the character of the man to be selected to manage the city's finances for the next four years. They were rightly interested, as the Negroes of Richmond pay taxes on $3,393,243 worth of real and personal property. As the Negro here is called up only once in every four years (presidential year) to vote, there being no Republican party, except on such occasion, many of the qualified Negro voters would have cast their ballots in the primary with the best element of the whites, and by so doing would have succeeded in electing a board representative of the best interests of the community rather than of the partisan political set who are but parasites on the city. Being denied the right to vote in a Democratic municipal primary, it remains to be seen what Giles B. Jackson and his alleged Wilson and Marshall Negro followers will do in the general election next November. EPISCOPALIAN WORKERS MEET Has been Employed for Seventeen Years at Freway—Identified with Masons and Odd Fellows. William H. Newsome, 44 years old, 113 West 134th street, is a patient at Bellevue Hospital for mental trouble, having been taken in custody Sunday while throwing away money to a crowd of Harlemites. Newsome imagines he is J. Pierpont Morgan, and had disposed of $500 when taken to Bellevue. When arrested Newsome was surrounded by a large crowd of men, women and children. In his pockets were silver coins and bills of various denominations. He showed no favorites and some in the crowd received bills while others managed to get silver. The crowd became so great that someone telephoned to the East 120th street police station for the reserves. Dr. Lobson, of the Harlem Hospital, after an examination, ordered Newsome sent to Bellevue for observation. Newsome is a floral decorator and has been employed by Frawley for seven years. Rosa Newsome was very much married when informed that her husband was under observation at Bellevue. She stated to an Agr representative that he had left home Sunday morning in a pleasant frame of mind, that he did not act querely and has never been known to have hallucinations of any kind. "Upon investigation it was found that Newsome had drawn $500 from his bank Saturday. He had not even informed his wife that he had such a sum in good standing in the Masons and Odd Fellows.

THE VICTORY IN MAINE The Republicans carried Maine with a clean sweep, September 9. The entire Republican ticket was elected, although the Democrats were in power, and assuring the election of a United States Senator. The Republican majority is something like 4,000, overcoming the plurality of 8,660 given the Democrats two years ago. Following close upon the Republican victory in Vermont, the Maine victory is indicative of Republican strength and the popular drift. Republicans everywhere have good grounds for hope and cheer in the outcome of the November voting. The Progressive party had no ticket in nomination in the Maine election, but threaten to have one in the November election, but it is hardly probable that the defection to it will be sufficient to elect the Democratic electors, the chances being that both Maine and Vermont will go Republican in November. It is natural for the Democrats to underestimate the importance of the Republican successes in Maine and Vermont; that is one of the most effective weapons the Democrats have, and the one out of which in the past they have extracted the most satisfaction. Col. Roosevelt is very much like the average Democrat who spends most of the time claiming everything before election and all of the time after election explaining how he lost everything on election day. It is an occupation most absorbing and exciting to those who like it and are comforted by it. How it butters any parsnips is the mystery in the comfort they get out of it. The Democrats are used to defeats; the Progressive Moosevelters have yet to become so. There is plenty of comfort in the Maine and Vermont results for Republicans who expect and are working for victory in the Nation in the November elections. They are not to be dismayed by the loud braying of the Democratic ass nor the big claims of the Bull Moosevelt. WHY THE NEGRO SHOULD SUP- PORT PRESIDENT TAFT. Incidentally, Negro citizens should support President Taft because he is the candidate of the Republican party, the leader, selected above all others, to be continued for a term of four years more in the highest office in the gift of the American people; selected because he has wisely shaped the affairs of the Nation and the party during the past four years, standing firmly for Republican principles—for equal rights for all, special privileges for none; for sanctity of law and legal process at home and national honor and credit abroad; and for progressive policies that promise general betterment of the condition of the people within the powers delegated to the Federal Government and not reserved to the States. Primarily, citizens should support President Taft because he is the candidate of the Republican party, whose history the Negro helped to make and a part of whose history the Negro is, as aATIVE and honorable part. The Republican party came in being because of the existence of Noah's dayry; the Negro helped the party press the Shave-Holders' Reheliod perpetrate the Union of the State swering Father Abraham's call forunteers 200,000 strong; and, since 1 in ten successive Presidential election he, the Negro citizen, by his vote the South, West and North, has helped to keep the Republican party in power in State and Nation, so that it could COL. ROOSEVELT AT SHOREVILLE Col. Roosevelt has fought at many places during his macroscopic life of fifty-four years. He has traveled so rapidly as to bewilder facts and confuse history in the making. We recall the name of no other American who has traveled so far or changed his attitude more frequently, so square with the conditions of the moment, then has Col. Roosevelt. To do so, as the old saying has it, he has had to run with the hare and chase with the hounds. He has plunged into every situation with the precipitation of "Me and Me!" By one of those hallucinations that so often obese abnormal souls he has imagined that he was "fighting for the Lord" in every scrimmage, when, in fact, he was fighting for Col. Roosevelts—thinking all the while that he was having "a bully time," when, truly, "a bully time" was having him and making him scream and jump about just like an Indian on the warpath, or with loaded fire-water—a political snake dance to all appearances. At San Juan Hill, in Cuba, not in New York, Col. Roosevelt thought he sought for the Lord, and the black soldiers saved him from being filled with hot lead. He was very grateful, and wrote in his Rough Rider book that black soldiers are good fighters when they have white officers to lead them, despite the fact that there were no white officers in eight when the black soldiers reached the top of San Juan Hill. At Brownville Col. Roosevelt thought he sought with the Lord when he assumed that a whole battalion of the Twenty-fifth Infantry was guilty of "shooting up" the town of Brownville, for treatment received, and discharged all of them without trial and without establishing the guilt of any of them. At one time Col. Roosevelt has bravely assumed entire responsibility for the discharge; now, and at many other times, he has insisted that President Taft, as Secretary of War was equally responsible with him for it. The acts of the Secretary of War are always subject to the approval before or reversal after promulgation by the President as commander-in-chief; but, as such, he can at no time, in war or peace, peremptorily punish a soldier by forfeiture of enlistment and its pecuniary benefits or of life without due process of court martial. Such courts martial may justify such promulgation after the act, and a subservient Congress may legalize it after the act, without convicting one soldier of the offense, as was done in the Brownville case, but the act remains a stigma on the commander-in-chief in military jurisprudence and an indefensible entrage in moral law. During the heat of the campaign in Ohio, in 1908, when the enemies of President Taft were seeking to use the Brownsville order to his injury, Gen. Henry C. Corbin furnished the following cablegram from President Roosevelt to Secretary of War Taft from Ponce, Porto Rico, to the Washington Evening Star, of August 7, 1908: "Cablegram received. Discharge is not to be suspended unless there are new facts of such importance as to warrant your 'cabling me. I care nothing whatsoever for the polling author of the politicians or the sentimentalists. The offence he has incurred and the punishment I inflicted I imposed after due deliberation. All I shall pay is the presentation of facts showing the official support to be in which or in port untrue, excelling some individual man. If any such facts shall later appear I can act as may be deemed desirable, but nothing has been brought before me to warrant the suspension of the order. I direct that it be executed." Signed "Theodore Roosevelt"—not as President nor yet as commander-in-chief of the army and navy. This cablegram is blunt, brutal and autocratic enough to have been fathered by the Czar of all the Russias. What was Secretary Taft to do, execute the order or defy the President and refuse to execute it? In the Washington Evening Star of August 7, 1808, commenting on the President's order from Ponce, Rudolph Foster, assistant private secretary to President Roosevelt, said: "General Osborne's statement is absolutely correct, and it is entirely proper that he should make it. The substance of the message from the President which he quoted was made public long ago. In the Brownsville matter the entire responsibility for issuing the original order and for declining to allow its suspension was the President's." After fighting for the Lord at Brownsville and putting his foot in it up to his eyes, Col. Roosevelt moved by easy stages to Chicago, at Armageddon, and in fighting for the Lord there, read the Progressive party into the infamous Democratic white primary column, leaving the Negro dangling beneath the white sword of Damocles, as he did in his "History of the Rough Riders," in his Brownsville discharge order, and in his establishment of the white referee system for Negro Republicans in the Southern States while he was yet President. We deny that Col. Roosevelt is now or has been fighting for the Lord; he has been and is fighting for the Devil, and the Lord has been and is after him, close behind him, as he rushes madly forward to his smash up, November 5. It is matter of record that Secretary Taft held up the discharge order for five days, while President Roosevelt was on the high seas, and that he did not release the order for execution until he received President Roosevelt's cablegram from Ponice. As President and commander-in-chief of the army and navy President Taft never would have issued the Brownsville order, simply because he is too much a judge to over-ride civil or military law and because he is too humane to condemn a soldier or civilian unheard and "without due process of law." work out those policies that have made the United States one of the strongest, richest and happiest Nations on the earth and the Republican party one of the wisest and most helpful agencies in the government of any nation, ancient or modern In the broadest sense, the Negro citizen was born in the Republican house, as the Republican party was born in the Negro Slave's cabin—the slave whose hopes and fears were voiced through the land by Benjamin Lundy, William Lloyd Garrison, John Brown and Abraham Lincoln! President Tait, is the head of the Republican house. The white members of the party have never done more in their way than the black members have done in their way to make the Republican party the tremendous agency for good in the life of the Nation which it has been and which it is to-day." In line with our thought, Former Congressman Ralph W. Cole of Ohio, speaking at Trenton, N. J., September 10, said, "A party was recently organized for social justice and social equality, and yet that party made one rule for the Negro south of the Mason and Dixon line and the reverse of that rule for the Negro north of the Mason and Dixon line. That is a peculiar sample of social justice. Republicanism is the same all over the country. It applies to every condition and every class of people." Yes, in the Republic, we same all over the country" President Lafta left the party. All all, he is one of the best equipped and sanest and safest of the two Republican who have occupied the White House from Lincoln to Trent. His heart has at true to the National promise to toks higher and better conditions for of the people at home and abroad he should be allowed to succeed REFORMERS ARE UNCERTAIN PEOPLE. Professional reformers, such as flourish mostly in the large cities of the North and West, are uncertain people in the general sense, and especially so in the specific sense as far as the Negro citizens are concerned. The Reform Mayors of New York and Philadelphia in the past twenty-five years, without exception, have been of this character, from Seth Low in the old Brooklyn days to William J. Gaynor, now in New York, and Rudolph Blankenburg in Philadelphia. Both these latter had a large hearsay reputation for being better than other men long before they were elected Mayors. Such people have invariably been dragged down by too much hearsay reputation and with not enough character and executive efficiency to sustain it. To-day lawlessness in its most violent and repulsive aspect and corruption in the public administration, especially in the police departments, such as shocks the moral sense of the people, are rampant in New York and Philadelphia, keeping both Mayor Gaynor and Mayor Blankenburg busy with explanations and denials that do not explain and convince. A great many Negroes voted for, and are therefore partly responsible for both Mayor Gaynor and Mayor Blankenburg. Are those of them in New York satisfied with Mayor Gaynor and administration? Neither the Philadelphia Council nor Tribune is satisfied with Mayor Blankenburg and his administration. The Tribune says: A year ago some coloured men, who against every protest made by the Tribune, insisted upon casting their votes for the candidates of the Keystone party, are now cursing it. To-day the same follows are paying over Roe's result, when they ought to have sense enough to know that a voter for him simply assumes the election of Wilson, the Democratic Presidential nominee. A man who the more follows will be appointed to the board of directors. Parts of his name. It is expected that Director Cooke agree that foreign ordained man have been appointed to places under the present city administration. So they have, but every mother's one of them are laborers on the street. Not a single colored man has been appointed to a clerical position or any other place of trust by Director Cooke, and he ought to be fair enough to acknowledge the truth. The Negro all along the line had better sink to the Republican party, which has been and is his safest friend as a man and citizen. MAJ. YOUNG AND EQUALITY. In telling of the promotion of Capt. Charles Young of the Ninth Cavalry to the grade of Major the Evening World tells that "Young is liked by Army officers because he never intrudes socially." Very peculiar is the conception some of the white people of this country have relative to the correct meaning of "social equality." The writer responsible for the article in the Evening World seems to think that the colored Major's popularity is due to an acknowledgment on his part that he is an inferior being to his brother officers. While relating several instances to show that Maj. Young has never "intruded" the Evening World tells the following story: "Capt. Young was eating ice cream in Mammoth's most famous ice cream garter. Every table with the exception of Young's. He wore the only person at his table. A white enlisted man and an army nurse entered the ice cream saloon and finding the tables all occupied, started to go out. Capt. Young saw them and as they passed his table arrese and said he would gladly let them have his table. The enlisted man saluted, thanked the Negro officer and accepted the table. Capt. Young stood up several places away from the table he had just occupied and ate his cream." In giving over his table to a white enlisted man and an army nurse it is difficult to understand where the "social equality" question comes in. The action of Capt. Young demonstrated that he was more of a gentleman than any white man sitting in the ice cream parlor, and that he had more respect for women than his brother officers or those under him. Of course, those not versed in the ethics of polite society mistook his politeness for an admission that he was inferior. Quite often in New York City when a man of color gives his seat to a white lady in a street car (when all the white men fail to show their gallantry in arising) the same position is taken—that the Negro is giving his seat to a white woman because he feels it is his duty to relinquish it. There are hundreds of colored men who would like to be more courteous to white women in public places, but they fear that their actions may be misinterpreted as an acknowledgment of inferiority. In order that "social equality" exist it is absolutely necessary that all parties concerned evince a desire to meet in social converse. "Social equality" exists among Negroes the same as whites. All white people do not meet on social terms and neither do all Negroes. "Social equality," therefore, is not regarded as a race issue. As a matter of fact, "social equality" is more of a bungalow between the whites than it is between the white and colored people. The prevailing opinion among white Americans is that every Negro is "just dying" to get into the society of some white person—a conceited and erroneous belief which will be righted in time. For instance, in the case of May. Young, he had a prerogative to assume the same as the white officers, and he evinced his preferment by associating socially with only those whose company was congenial and who, also showed a desire to be in his company. There is a set of white men in this country who are always willing to speak in high terms of any Negro who gives the impression that he is not ambiguous and is willing to be regarded among the menial and lowly; but there is also a set of Negroes who prefer to be judged not by the color of their skin but by achievement, moral standing, wealth and intelligence. This set of Negro citizens prefers to be regarded as men among men irrespective of what it costs to secure proper recognition. STILL MORE BARBARISM IN GEORGIA. Scarcely a day or a week passes but what there is some disgraceful outbreak in Georgia. During the sitting of the Odd Fellows in Georgia a colored man was lynched and shot and his body torn to pieces and hung up on a telegraph pole. What are the leading people in Georgia doing about this barbarian? What are Atlanta University, Clark University, Morris Brown College, Atlanta Baptist College, Gammon Theological Seminary and other institutions doing to stop this state of things? Surely there must be somebody in Georgia who's brave enough and strong on high to speak out Georgia is at present at the bottom in the way of exhibiting a spirit of barbarian. When this last disgraceful outbreak took place Edward H. Morris of Chicago, and other race leaders were in Atlanta. It was hoped that they would have spoken out, but we have heard nothing from them.

In Philadelphia, where an epidemic of crime prevails, some thieves raided the Keystone Teeth Company and made off with 500 sets of false teeth, which at $1 a set. What will they do with such queer loot?" The political thieves are also busy in Pennsylvania. The Progressives have stolen the Republican name and refuse to give it up, and the latter threaten to incorporate under the name of the Lincoln party. --- A famine in lemmons is reported, in sympathy, of course, with the famine in beefsteaks, epiphora demanding that the two be served together. It is now threatened to make reindeer in Alaska to supply the deficit in the beefsteaks supply caused by the criminal destruction of the buffalo and the failure of domestic cattle to meet the unhealthy demand of flesh eaters. We may go short on lemmons for beefsteaks and soft drinks, but it will not affect the natural supply of acid for politics, which is more abundant this year than is good for health glazes. The Chinese people are not so pitted as one calamity follows on the heels of another with them. A typhoon recently flooded a whole province, destroying 5,500 lives, wiping out towns and villages and the crops for the year, making a famine inevitable for millions of people. The country is still in the aroanes and uncertainties of civil war, despite the establishment of the Chinese Republic, which is having a hard struggle to maintain its position and get recognition as a Power. There is no sentiment any more in politics. It is not now a question of human rights but of human wants and what they imagine are human wants. Trust magnates, bankers and manufacturers want to realise more profits on investments, wage-carniers want more wages and consumers want cheaper prices for everything they need or think they need, while the gamblers and grafters who live by their wits grab everything in sight, and brave the chances of "getting away with the goods." It is a dangerous situation in which everybody wants more and nobody wants less of everything. Dr. Ely of Philadelphia, speaking on "God and Our Country," said: "The fellow who shouts the loudest at prayer meeting and then fails to cast his ballot on election day does not come up to the Christian ideal." In most of the relations of life the men longest on more talk are shortest on real performance. Col. Bryan, Col. Roosevelt and Gov. Wilson are the longest distance talkers in the land, but what they have really done that will live will not occupy a whole chapter of American history when the Gibbon of the futureance. The late Democratic House of Representatives talked 25,000,000 words at one cent a word, in the Congressional Record, but the country would be richer and happier if it had never met and talked and bulked. The cereal crop that year, according to the Agricultural Department, measured in bushels, stands the imagination. For instance, there are 2,995,000 bushels of corn, 28,000,000 bushels of potatoes, 300,000,000 bushels of wheat, 1,220,000,000 bushels of oats, and the like, and a working balance of $30,500,000 in the Federal Treasury. That is the way things work under a Republican president, such as President Taft. He is no dreamer, but a practical American who has protected Big Business from needless persecution and encouraged wage corners in all honest efforts to get more of the profits of industry in their pay coverages and save more of it in their back accounts. Gov. Wilson is a humorous man who woldm laughs at his own humor. He is of the solemnly humorous sort. For instance, in a York address he asked, "What is it that we desire to do now in t i n 1912?" That looks simple, says answer, but it is not. Some will ask, or it one way, some another. For ourselves, we answer, we want to cast Woodrow Wilson and elect Wilson Howard Taft president of the United States. Why? Because Gov. Wilson represents the party which has blocked the pathway of the political, social and industrial uplift and progress of the American people for the past half century while President Taft represents the party which has blazed the pathway of political, social and industrial uplift for half a century. But, like Ephraim joined to his Idols, Gov. Wilson cannot see it that way. The people will when they vote November 5. When people get off the ground they can never be sure of getting back on it the same do when they get off and yet people who adventure their lives in machines in the air, on the earth and in the water under the earth are among the most rockless of the people who get wrecked. In a motorcycle race, at the Valsalburg track, in Newark, N. J., recently, speeding at the rate of 150 miles an hour, Eddie Hasha's machine rate is 25 and plunging to the stand, killed Hasha and six others. Machines in 15 with hands or like human machines not made with hands, they will stand just so much conscience and then they smash up, scattering death and destruction about them. What is the speed limit is easily assumed and maintained, but few people find it or regulate their lives within it. Those who gamble for too much usually get too little which is more than enough. We do not know of an organization that is likely to do more good for the colored race than the National Negro Business League which has just held its annual convention at Chicago. The organization gives the Negro a new view of the place he may occupy in industry and commerce and he must be interested by "experience neither by the convention who had worked their way up to independence and fortune described their successes. Probably the most helpful advice given at the convention came from Booker T. Washington, who urged the members of his race to cease depending for a livelihood on odd and uncertain jobs and to take up farming and commercial pursuits. This is right in line with Dr. Washington's constant counsel to the Negro and with his purpose of abutting his ties. His advice in brief is that the Negro must make himself useful and he will make himself respected. As to farming, Dr. Washington said that haste must be made or the opportunity would pass, for, while millions of unoccupied acres may now be laid in the South for $10 an acre, in a few years they cannot be secured for two or three times that amount. A great many white men, too, depend for a livelihood on cold and uncertain jobs, and the advice to go to farming might be directed to them as well as to the black man, but the latter more especially needs it because a post of servitude has put a strong strain of dependency in his character. He is timid when he undertakes to do anything for himself. He needs past such encouragement as he gets at Chicago. SECTIONALIZING COLOR (Daltonite, American.) Straddling on the race issue, as he straddles on the recall of judges and upon the tariff and all other issues that are clear-out and cannot be shrouded in ambiguous language, Col. Roosevelt in a long letter explains his position upon the third party and the colored voter. Stripped of all verbiage, his stand is for the sectionalizing of the colored voters. The colored voter of the North is given his imprimatur, while the race in the South is to be debarred representation in the leadership of the party, in its convention and in its influence. This remarkable compromise will prove futile. The colored voters of the South will not take good words for the bread of political opportunity, the colored voters of the North will not permit the concessions made them to equalize them from identity upon equal basis. The South here is yet another of the long list of race compromises that far antedated the Civil War. The clean-cut position of the Republican party is that of the Federal Constitution. It may not always work well, but it is definite and not beset by discrimination and distortions. The third party will be a party, the party will be a secretly wants it to be by reason of making impossible conditions for colored support. --- Washington a Maker of History. To the Editor of The New York Great men stamp their minds upon their age and nation as Luther did upon modern Germany, and Knox upon Scotland. And if there be one man who can speak the language on the American people it is Booker T. Washington. He is a great worker, a great man, and a true maker of history. He is a dominant motive authority, by his powerful energy and capacity for work, a hardy and or dead, but particularly in the 2 WOMEN'S DEPARTMENT Miss Martel will answer through this column questions of interest to women. Address her in care of The Ace. By MAY MARTIL "Faith, hope and charity; the greatest of these is charity." Such is the motto of one of New York's most unique organizations—the Lucy Lancy League. Its existence marks a step in the progress of the Negro. For several years colored New Yorkers have attended its splendid social affairs and had a royal good time without asking the whys and wherefore. Therefore, few outside of the league members know of the work behind the MISS LUCY LANEY of little black boys and girls whose future lies dark and cheerless before them, and will indeed constitute a prosene, and the burdens unselfly home by the officers and members for the sake of a good cause. For five years these men and women have labored without compensation to raise funds to combat ignorance. CALL FOR THE SKILFUL MEGR Whatever her station in life it is pretty certain that sooner or later the young woman will have something to do with things domestic. The few who do not are rare indeed. Taking this as a fact, not stopping to argue whether she will be a housewife, a school teacher, a community worker, or even a business woman, Tuskegee Institute has so shaped its course for women in a particular trade, so girl grace goes forth ready to take her place in the world. The general work all girls who pursue the regular course at Tunkleake must take. They must know how to clean and put a room in order, how to cook and serve a meal, and how to care for young children. Whatever their particular trade, these branches they must study both in theory and in practice. This work begins with their own rooms which must be kept tidy at all times and which must be kept clean. They tend cooking classes so many hours per week where they take up the theory of cooking and then actually cook under the direction of competent teachers. In these classes much stress is placed on cooking the ordinary dishes, so as to keep the kitchen clean and the common people. Along with instruction in setting the table, managing the meal from the point of view of the hostess, receives much attention. Then they go away to the students' dining hall, chance to the teachers' dining hall, serve certain amount of time putting their theories into actual practice. A regular room is set apart for child-study work. Hasselnets, pillows, toys and all the material used in an ordinaire room are used in the study of the girls. The teacher begins with the study of the child in its earliest infancy, how to amuse, bathe, dress and care for the child in its earliest stages. The teacher rounds homes serve as laboratories for the students in these classes. They visit, observe and then do the work themselves. This course, however, is open to upper-grade girls only and not to lower-grade girls. With her general work and her academic work the young woman may choose one of several trades. Of course young women may pursue studies in the arts, crafts, or the like, as many are now doing; but the trades open particularly for girls are: plain sewing, dressmaking, helper tailoring, millinery, cooking or baking, soap making, laundering, matte-making, soap making, broom-making and nurse training. In all these trades a fair balance is struck between theory and practice, young woman who works in the chemical industry simply learn do wash and iron. She learns the various chemicals used in washing, how to bleach, remove stains and the like. She learns how to handle all the machine tools she uses, the water she handles, the vaporizer, machines built especially for certain articles, for collars or for shirts. Then she gains a business knowledge of the handling and checking of them as she uses them to check them and verifying them as they go out. When, therefore, she receives her certificate she is not simply ready to go out and wash and iron but to establish a business with her capital and patronage will permit. So, now it is again to choose one more sample with the young woman who works with a specialty of cooking or domestic science. During her course her classes and serves meals in her kitchen and directs them and then in her chemistry class she works with a specialty of the chemistry class she will now is bored than the one she trained in one or more years of industry. Year later she is public and private school and the cochineal trades so she needs to need teachers. From Alabama, Illinois, Tennessee and Missouri and many more she annually more deeply teaches than Turkesteroe and the salaries are good. In the young woman she helps to help her through life. If she wants to wait on table to part of her board such a chance In the far Southland are thousands bleem unless the money is forbearing to make them trained and intelligent citizens. In some sections of the South the school term is only two and three months in the year and the teachers are often miserably inferior. Organizations such as the Lucy Laney League would be Godsends to these little unfortunates, but to date only the graduates and friends of the Haines Nouveau and Industrial School at Augusta, Ga., with Miss Mia Laney Laney is principal, have seen the wisdom of counting and doing practical work along this line. A graduate of Atlanta University, Miss Lucy C. Laney, from whom the league takes its name, entered Augusta single handed and alone some twenty-six years ago, and began teaching the few colored children she could draw around her. The little folk and their parents were eager for knowledge and her school constantly increased and also her financial burdens, for although commissioned by the Presbyterian Board of Missions, she was only allowed what she could raise on the field to carry on her work. Undaunted, by hardships, Miss Laney persevered, until to-day she has two brick buildings, a good staff of teachers and an enrollment of about eight hundred pupils. Since its organization the league has sent to Miss Laney nearly $2,000 and has now become responsible for the financial support of the Kindergarten Department. Besides this, the effort by Negroes to help Negroes has so pleased some of the white contributors that they have doubled their donations. Its efforts have also proved a source of inspiration, and as a result similar bodies have sprung up in Washington, Philadelphia and Augusta. Too much credit cannot be given Charles C. Davis, for the organization and continuation of this splendid work up to the present. Quiet and unassuming in manner, but thoroughly capable and businesslike, the league could not have at its head a better leader. Associated with Mr. Davis, and unselfishly giving their time and services as officers are, Mrs. J. T. Brown, vice president; Miss Eva Timpson, secretary; Mrs. Chas. C. Davis, assistant secretary; Dr. J. R. Hillery, treasurer; A. M. Robinson chaplain is open to her. If she stags, she is paid for her services in the choir. If she plays various opportunities will be her to use her talent in this direction. On the other hand, if she wishes to pursue courses in music these with a slight extra charge are open to her. The courses are given in both piano and voice and video. The course at all fit is given countless opportunities to appear in public. Class exercises, rhetoricals, public debates, and the social gatherings between the boys afford ample away for all those who love talent and wish to develop confidence. Most important of all, in all the work whether theoretical or practical, the young woman's physical education is the young woman's right of. Just as it is believed that no student of it is educated without some knowledge of it, so if it is felt that no girl is ready to go out into the world without a well trained, graceful body. Hence a regular course in gymnastics is scheduled for all girls. If the young woman attends gymnastics, she has so many hours per week for gymnastics. If she goes to night school, she has gymnastics before those classes begin. In all cases, when the weather permits the classes are held out of doors, the idea being to bring good health and strong bodies rather than to teach the rather dumbbell drills, wad drills or basketball playing and marching lend variety throughout the course. These exercises are for all girls but in later years the placing of Negra schools in the hands of Negroes has made the young woman gymnastic teacher. In Negro-city schools, and more especially in Negro private schools and colleges, the Negro girl who can teach gymnastics is eagerly sought. Tuckekee offers programs to do this work under the instructor from Margaret's Gymnastium. PORTSMOUTH. N. H Portsmouth, N.

Roberts Mar- val at Vaccines of Plant and Speak in Highest Terms of Work Beijing, China Tuskegee Institute has no more enthusiastic admirers than Dr. P. A. Johnson and Dr. E. P. R. Roberts of New York, who attended the recent session of the National Medical Association which was held at the institute. While this group of students appears important to see what a great work the school is doing for the race, and they have returned home declaring that Tuskegee Institute is one of the most interesting places in the United States. "No one could proply estimate the value of our students, many and varied activities without first having seen it," Dr. Roberts stated to an Agre representative. "The institute comprises an area of three thousand acres of fertile soil, a vast number of costly buildings and a natural scenery that is strikingly picturesque and fascinating. The chemistry, mathematics, geology, geometry, botany, zoology, hygiene and sanitation is taught and the results from such teachings are startling and exceedingly gratifying. Practical Christianity is taught, and the entire community is enveloped in a spirit of helpfulness and friendly rivalry in their scientific and industrial pursuits." "A large number of our people are ignorant and poverty stricken. They must first be taught by example rather than precept, by objective rather than objective proactive formation. It is easier for them to look at Tuskegee Institute, a pillar of hope in the temple of human progress, and take courage to fight onward and upward, would they then make progress, would gradually come from the abstract to the concrete. Tuskegee Institute has made the State of Alabama famous, revolutionized industrial training in this country and sent its spirit abroad. The man who built and is still building Tuskegee Institute knew in the beginning. When viewed from the proper angle his teachings will continue to conceive the best interests of our race." Tuskegee is a most wonderful place, said Dr. Johnson, "It never was that difficult to conceive how such a great system could be worked out. To visit Tuskegee Institute is truly an education. All the brick in the buildings are from the institute's own plant. I learned that some years ago Dr. Washington purchased the forty acres of land which in itself shows the great fore-sight of the noted educator. "No one could go to Tuskegee without coming away inspired. It gave me new life and we whoope. To inspect the highest mechanical art, each building standing out in hold relief to go over the large and well kept farm; to visit the large and well kept dairy; in indeed inspiring. I had the pleasure of being driven over the farm and the party at 9 o'clock. I was on the farm and we did not stop riding until 3:30 in the afternoon. Among the things I saw on the farm which particularly impressed me were two hundred acres of meadow at a stalk two hundred acres of sweet potatoes, two hundred acres of black-eyed peas and two hundred acres of orchard. In the dairy were 125 head of the best Jersey cows I have ever seen in my life, and I learned that the cows give over one thousand kilos of milk daily. "If I had ten children I would not consider that I had done them full justice in developing their general usefulness and education without aid and support from the Tuskegee Institute. I believe that I can say without being challenged that the order and discipline there will equal any training school—military or otherwise—in the world. I consider that I am under the greatest obligation to be a student at Washington, Dr. Kenney and the management of Tuskegee Institute for the privilege accorded in extending the invitation to the National eMical Association to hold a session at that most wonderful institution, and I hope it will be the good fortune of the race to have a pilgrimage there some time to be convinced of the greatness of Tuskegee."

I cannot begin to tell you all the benefits I have received since the arrival of the two snapshots of Loadstones 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 fright. A friend told me to write you for information regarding the system of two Loadstones 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 increased 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 through the power and influence of two Loadstones.

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

But so far as the colored performer is concerned the United will be looked upon as the small time if the Keith people do not give him more work in the future than they have in the past, for the funding allotted the colored variety shows this season has been small indeed. You may search far and near and you will not find a business concern more thoroughly organised than the United Booking Office; you may search far and near and you will not find a more affable and courteous set of more than these directly connected with the United Booking Office; and you may search far and near and you will not find a more evasive set of more than the United Booking Office. It is the avaviveness of the attacks of the United Booking Office that keeps the colored performers "up a time" with reference to getting work on the big time. To engage in a heart-to-heart talk with anyone connected with the United on the subject of giving colored artists employment is usually a pleasant experience, and you leave with a feeling that "the country is warm" and the colored performer will soon be in his glory. But you wait, and wait for something to turn up in the colored vaudevillian's favor, and you continue to wait. As the acts being played by the United are few and far between, and forming our opinion on the basis that "actions speak louder than words," we are forced to conclude that it in the policy of the United to play colored acts only now and then. Although the local theatrical season opened several weeks ago, not until this week did a colored act get an opportunity to appear at any of the Keith human in Greater New York. Handily Cooper and Robinson made their debut at the Union Square Theatre. White Fiddler and Shelton were substituted for an act at the Bronx. Theatre work before last, it was only for a few days. This time last season, when Percy Williams had control of the Allamanda, Colonial, Bronx, Orpheum and Grouppoint theaters it was not unusual to see colored acts on the respective bills. It was hoped that the Keith people, in taking over Percy Williams' functions, would treat the colored vandals with equal consideration, but to date but little, if any, concern has been shown in booking them. In charging that the colored performer is persons not grown on the big time one or two exceptions should be made. For instance, the Orpheum Circuit, which affiliates with the Keith people, has been playing colored acts with pleasing frequency of late. The appearance of Cooper and Robinson at the Union Square Theatre shows how different is the policy of the Keith and Orpheum people respecting colored acts. Cooper and Robinson have just returned from a successful tour over the Orpheum Circuit, and they were given good positions on the bill. There are several acts at the Union Square this week that were with Cooper and Robinson out West where their billing and position were inferior to the colored team's. Yet at the Union Square Theatre these same acts have better spots than Cooper and Robinson, who are second on the bill. It is not desired to occasion additional dissatisfaction among the colored theatrical folk (if such is possible) as it is always my aim to bring about a better understanding between those engaged in theatricals. But all efforts toward establishing more satisfactory conditions between the booking people and the colored vaudeville have been unavailing. Realizing that the big time managers have all the theatrics it is folly to try and bulldone with a view to accomplishing a desired result. In this instance a statement of facts is made with the hope that those having the big time houses in charge will see what the colored performers believe to be the error of their women. Colored acts certainly have hard trials and tribulations over the big circuits. Some booking agents may say are difficult to book because the majority of them are not too-office attractions, and yet there are times when complaints are registered that they draw too many people. Last month a certain colored act was one of the hits of the United Circuit. In one or two cities it was cancelled because the report came into the United Booking Offices that "the act drew too many colored people." On one occasion that act was the hit of the bill, and although the house manager, in his report, gave it credit for its artistic success, the protest—"act draws too many colored people"—was made. So with the managers training these new arts because they possess no drawing power, and on the other hand complaining about other acts causing too many colored people to come to the theatre, one is put in a quandary as to what is really expected of the colored vaudevillian. If Turt was permitted by Uncle Sam to carry on a guessing content it would offer a grief which would be given to the first one who guessed correctly what the managers want colored to be. It is possible that I am an unfortunate premature in this article and that the United people are arranging quite a list of flowers for the annual festival.

LIFE STORY OF COLERIDGE-TAYLOR The late Samuel Coleridge-Taylor is referred to by the English press as having been one of the leading composers of Europe, and the consensus of opinion is that his death is a great loss to the musical world. A more complete life story of Mr. Coleridge-Taylor than has appeared in any publication in America was published in the London Daily Chronicle in announcing the death of the gifted composer. The article: We regret to announce the death last night, at the age of 27, of Mr. Samuel Coleridge-Taylor, the famous composer. He had spent most of his life in Croydon, and was residing there, with his wife, at Aldwick, St. Leonard's road, at the time of his death. He left home on Wednesday afternoon intending to visit the Crystal Palace, but near West Croyden Station he was seized with sudden illness, and for a few moments was in a state of collapse. However, he recovered sufficiently to get on a tram and go home. He once event to be beaten pneumonia developed in Mr. Coleridge-Taylor died at 6 o'clock last evening. He had lately been working particularly hard, hurrying to complete the music for a production of "Hiawatha" as a ballet in four scenes. The ballet composition was to have been of an entirely different character from that of the cantata of the same name, which was the foundation of his first great success. The new ballet had occupied his mind for nearly a year, and he had added to the strain upon his physical and mental resources by labor upon a new violin concert now in the press. Mr. Coleridge-Taylor was a member of a colored medical practitioner of Sierra Loome, but his mother was an English lady, and the dead composer had lived in Croydon since he was a year old. His family were not at that time in very good circumstances, but his genius began to be recognized when he was very young. On one occasion he was seen playing with other boys, having the marbles necessary for the game in one hand, but hugging to his shoulder with the other a small violin. He was then only 6 years old. Funds were provided by those who had selected the promise of a great future for the boy, and he was given a musical education. The master of the old British School of Croydon brought to the house of Colonel Walter, who was the choirmaster at St. George's Presbyterian Church, Croydon, and from that time it was decided that he should embark on a musical career. In September, 1899, he was entered at the Royal College of Music, making the violin his primary study. Two years later, on the advice of Sir George Groves, who had discovered the boy's aptitude for composition, he adopted that as his principal subject.

His earlier efforts included settings for several hymn tunes, a Te Deum, and some anthems, one of which was published by Henry 1898 when John Coleridge-Taylor was only 17 years old, under the title, "In Thee, O Lord." While at the college he won a scholarship for three years, which was renewed for a further period of 12 months. At nearly every students' concert given by the college some work of the young composer was included in the program. One of his compositions, a quartet for the clarinet and strings, so pleased Herr Joachim that he had it performed in Berlin in 1897, about the same time as Coleridge-Taylor left college. He then became connected with the Croydon Conservatory of Music, giving lessons at the Royal College and at the Crystal Palace. At the same time he was following composition, proving extremely versatile, and producing a number of works. His first important production was an orchestral ballad in G. minor, produced at Gloucester Musical Festival in 1898, and immediately afterwards repeated at the Crystal Palace, the composer conducting. His greatest success as a composer was undoubtedly the trilogy "Hiawatha" the three sections appearing at intervals. "Hiawatha's Wedding Feast" was produced by the students of the Royal College of Music under the leadership of Charles Stuart for November 1898, when the audience included Sir Arthur Sullivan. The latter is reported to have been so charmed with the work that he remarked, "I am always an ill man; but if I have to be carried I will come to the concert." Another part, "The Death of Minnehaha," was produced at the North Staffordshire Festival, held at Hanley, England, in 1900. It was completed by "Hiawatha's Departure" the three sections complete being performed at a concert of the Royal Choral Society in 1900. Mr Taylor had also written incidental music for "Herod," "Ulysses," "Nero," and "Faust." He paid more than one visit to America, the first being in 1904. While there there "Hiwatha" was performed by a choral society of people from the colored composer of the cantata. He completed their happiness by personally conducting for them, and had something approaching a triumphal reception. Before he left the society presented him with a massive silver loving cup. "As the token of their love and esteem." The cup bears the quote of the poet: "It is well for us, oh brother. You came so far to see us." Mr. Coleridge-Taylor was in no degree reserved about his descent, and at one time entered the lists in a very spirited open letter in defense of the Negro race, directed to a clergyman who had made slighting references to his race. Mr. Coleridge-Taylor married in 1899 Miss Jessie Walmisley of Croydon, who survives him. He also leaves a son and daughter. Lincolnna Score Two Shut Out. The Lincoln Giants were victorious in a doubleheader at Olympic Field Sunday in which they got sweet revenge on two teams that had defeated them earlier in the season. Redding shut out the Woodhills in the first game, and Williams, envious of the Georgia pitcher's record, gave the Trenton team a row of goose eggs in the second contest, allowing but two hits.

No. 7—take a rye highball to the stout gentleman in the room. He often have they heard the merry phrases he compounds were forcotton last Thursday night when the Bellman cavorted in Young's Casino and under Young's Casino, in fact all over Young's Casino. The crowd that has ever gathered at Young's since the opening assembled last Thursday night. The Frogs had a mightier crowd, but not a merrier crowd, and with their outing coats and adorned with their white coats and white trousers they paraded up the alley and down the floor; up the stairs to the roof, around the garden down the stairs to the rathkeller where they started the assembly room where they started the final, of jollity which lasted until dawn. The famous New Amsterdam orchestra played as it never played before and to its tempting strains the merry gathering laughed, sang and danced with the musicians of the Hallein Renaissance Hallein as H. Alston, president of the Hotel Bellman's Beneficial Association, who for his congenial disposition is better known throughout the whole United States. As Bully Alston, owing to his method of singing, he presents him with a heart in any heart game, could be seen scampering about the hall throughout the whole evening, first checking a lady's wrap next seating a party of visitors then introducing dances in the meanwhile gathering the greatest pleasure while acting the roll of host-in-chief of the Bellman's Asm. Joe Griffin, Julian Fordham and Pole Cannon could be seen clustered close to the stage, and Jimmy Denham who evidently was made late while waiting for his country hens to present with a sufficient quantity of exes to fill his city orders. He soon spent the evening trying to find some exes to listen to his latest tenor ballad entitled "Annie Roeon," which he claims is so new that the song books have not been able to copy or dawn he had in finding an exe and that he is survived that he has listened to a death-warrant with pleasure-he should worry. After George had completed his little ballet I mean ballad he took to the Hallein Renaissance Hallein been talking about, which speaks pretty badly for George's singing powers. At the stroke of twelve, as I read in the dime novels, George Hawkins taught me that "Rhythm" = "Rhythm-tat-tat—dity—dity—dentity." You'd never guess what that was: sup. passed to represent—but that is an imitation of the drum call when the grand marshal was announced. Here's where George Hawkins got in his best work. To the sound of the Bellman's March, the white ladies in the marshal's side huddle the door of the grand marshal's soulah, which was being prepared by the family across the hall from Berry's hat (the odor of which by the way was all Berry got) the members formed lines and meted upon the floor, led by George Hawkins who favored the initials of H. B. Hawkins of the family assembled to an ensemble of ladies who received a round round of applause from the members and friends. Ike Miles and James Avery the theoretical great-titrums early in the evening informed me that their duty was to keep out disorder. Later in the evening—I should have said bald I met the pair surrounded by small glasses which contained a brownish fluid having all the appearance of barley, my inquiry for their extreme vigilance Chapt. Avery informed me such the bishopish Irish Green River whiskey—and in his duty as sharrings—as to keep out dist water. And on the way to the Sergentia the whiskey nor the Sergentia while I remained in the neighborhood. Early in the evening I ambedded to the office and by way of greeting said Good evening, the Sergentia, who was slated for the position of receiver of coin. This is what I heard in return to my greeting: "Two hundred and four—two hundred and five— Later on my way out I rambled to the box office and said "Good night, Mr. Hicka"—and this is what I got for a reply: "Nine hundred and seven-nine hundred and eight—nine hundred and nine." Judging from the figures Berry has reached on my departure I estimate the paid admissions to be somewhat over two thousand—pretty much two thousand, but I wish at this present moment—I'd wish I was the Hellmen's Association. I tried to get some names to present to its dear readers of The Age, but the crowd wiggled around so that I caught myself taking down the same name several times. Finally I passed the scheme up for a bad job. Some crowd—some fun—some night. Oh you, Bell BROOKLYN Dugene White, 171 Myrtle avenue, is on the sick list with a severe cold.
