VOL. XXVI. No. N.Y. WOMAN GRANTED PAPERS Mrs. William Grafton No. 1 Made Administratrix of tslate GRATTON LIFT A WILL Testa'or Made Threat Thai He Would Visit any Person who Attempted to Change His Will NOTIVE FOR ACI-UNKNOWN Mrs. Gratton No. 1 Desire She Was Re-sponsible for Self-warder—Says She Did Not Worry Decased. Mrs. Wm. H. Gratton, No. 1, has returned from Philadelphia and has been granted letters of administration on the estate left by Mr. Gratton. The business at 1632 South street, Philadelphia is in her charge and her lawyer is looking after matters in her absence. On Wednesday, October 9, the supposed last will of Mr. Gratton was offered for probate in Philadelphia by the second Mrs. Gratton, in which the estate, after a bequest of $300 to Mrs. Mary Boozey, mother of testator, was devised to Cordelia Smith Gratton, the second Mrs. Gratton. Notwithstanding this, letters of administration were granted to Mrs. Lettie Mason Gratton, New York, who claims to be the first Mrs. Gratton. The estate is valued at $960. An interesting feature of this supposed will was a codicil as follows: This will is just as I want it, and I want that attempt to change it will receive a visit from me if such a thing can be done by the spirit. Mrs. Lester Masson Gratton does not believe the will is greatest and she believes will have to decide this question. She says her fear of spiritual vengeance is not great enough to deter her from establishing her legal rights in the matter. Mrs. Gratton claims there is absolutely no foundation for the report that Mr. Gratton's suicide was probably caused by fear of acquaintance from her, that although they were separated they were in constant communication, and their relations were exceedingly friendly; that her last letter from him was just three weeks before his death, in which he said nothing that would indicate an intention to end his life. Mrs. Gratton exhibited to a representative of Titus Acu photos of Mr. Gratton which he had sent her at frequent intervals, the last two being sent the past summer. She also showed a large photo in a frame which hangs on the parlor wall bearing the inscription: "Yours only, Billy Gratton, 1910." Mrs. Gratton declares she did not know there was any claim that a second marriage had taken place, as Mr. Gratton had always denied it; that he was very liberal towards it; that she had insisted in the line of financial needs but that he had granted it, his remittances were constant and considerable. Concerning the separation, or what seems really to have been a series of separations Mrs. Gratton No. 1, says "In 1892 Mr. Gratton and I were living at 1141 South Sixth street, Philadelphia, and his mother was with us. The woman who claims to be Mrs. Gratton No. 2 was introduced to us by a friend as his cousin and we made her a welcome visitor to our home. It was not long before I discovered that she was interested in my husband and because of her I separated from Mr. Gratton. In 1903, we were reunited, and lived at 134 West 30th street, New York City. Separation came again soon. The second marriage is claimed to have occurred in 1894, but there does not appear to be any papers to substantiate the claim, and in any event there had been no degree of divorce between Mr. Gratton and myself. "In 1899 Mr. Gratton came to New York and we again adjusted our differences, and he remained here with me as 248 West 41st street until his company, playing "The South Before the War," went on the road. From that time until his death he wrote me, ten times, in money, at one time sending me $15, and visited me time after time. Visits were always pleasant and delightful. He would sometimes time with him, and always as his wife." Mrs. Gratton No. 1, says she did not stop with Sidney Purnell, 1005 South 17th street, but that she stopped at 1007 South 17th street, and only used the parlor at 1005 for business conferences because the parlor at 1007 were not available. The various fraternal organizations to which Mr. Gratton belonged, and which carry, endowment policies, have held up payment, of same until the courts shall have adjusted the matter and established the legal standing of the two Mrs. Grattons. Mrs. Gratton No. 1, is living at 86 West 134th street. PROF. MANUO DEAD Director of Mozart Conservatory of Music Dues After Short Illness—Was a Resident of New York for Forty-five Years—Funeral Services Held Tuesday Evening. Prof. Albert F. Mando, director of the Mando Mozart Conservatory of Music 2015 Madison avenue, died Friday, October 10, at 4:45 p.m., after five days illness. He had been working very hard of late and was weakened so that when pneumonia set in his physical system was not strong enough to overcome its onslaught. Prof. Mando was so years old, and had been a resident of New York for forty-four years. The funeral services were at 8 o'clock Tuesday evening, October 15, from his late residence, with the Rev. W. R. Lawton obstructing. J. C. Thomas had charge of the funeral. The funeral party left the city at midnight Tuesday, going to Troy, N. Y., the interment being at Schaightcoke Cemetery. Prof. Mando was born in Schaightcoke, N. Y., living there until he was nine years old, when his family moved to Lansingburg, or what is now Upper Troy. Here he attended school, graduating from the academy, and here he studied the piano under Miss Attwood of Lansingburg. He came to New York in 1868, coming under the influence and tutelage of the great Negro violinist, John T. Douglass. From Prof. Douglass he inculcated those high ideals which were to shape his entire musical life, and which caused him to place his musical standards upon the highest plane. He was never a disciple of the latter day school of popular and syncopated music, but gave his thought and effort to an introduction of the works of the mass-producer of all time. This idealism in turn transmitted to his peers. Thirteen years ago he established the Mando Mozart Conservatory of Music at 2105 Madison avenue, and he had developed this school to a point where it was a commendable factor in the musical life of Greater New York. At the time of his death sixty-five pupils were enrolled in the different departments of the conservatory. Plans mapped out by Prof. Mando would have been completed within the next few years and he had a strong desire to live to see their completion. A task to which he had given his best effort was the preparing NEGRO INVESTORS One Inventa a Remarkable Rifle and Another 'Has Been Granted Patent on a Non-Puncturable Tire. SPECIAL TO THE NEW YORK AGE WASHINGTON, D. C. Oct. 15.—Fred M. Johnson, Negro globe trotter, who taught at San Juan Hill, has invented a belt feed rifle that, it is asserted, will fire three hundred shots without stopping at the rate of twenty shots a second. Johnson says he has received word from the War Department that his rifle is considered one of the wonders of the age, and that it soon will receive a trial. The Johnson gun is used much like an ordinary rifle, being about the same weight and length, but instead of the regular stock, the rifle is equipped with a brace which fastens to both shoulders, bringing the barrel to a level with the eye. A small crank fitted to the side of the barrel operates the belt so the cartridges are carried to the chamber, discharged and the skills evicted simply by turning the stock. Johnson is now inside of Cleveland O. Joseph H. Coholt, 832 Camp street, Indianapolis, Ind., through his attorney here, Wm. L. Houston, has been granted a patent by the Patent Office on his invention of a non-puncturable tire for automobiles. His patent tire can be punctured with a six or eight penny nail without necessitating stopping for repairs. It is so constructed that no matter how badly the outside rim is punctured the inside tire remains intact. The invention will be a boon to automobile owners, and ought to provide for the inventor. SEPARATE SCHOOL QUESTION UP NEW YORK AIR N. Y. Oct. 15.--Now they are entering the advisability of instructing the Negro school schoolchildren. Aberlion Strong has taken in the matter with the Department of Instruction and his plan is to use school No. 11 for the new Negro school only. This school is to be furnished for Technical Education and will mean that the instruction will mean the instruction of Negro teachers, others are unwillingly opposed to the idea, considering that if the proper light was made the Department of Instruction would employ Negroes as teachers in the mixed schools here as is done in New York City. ST. LOUIS FIRM WANTS SKILLED NEGRO LABOR Scullin-Gallagher iron & Steel Company will Give Employment NO RACE PRIJUDICE EXISTS General Manager Knight Viola Tuskogen for skilled Wormerian Tuskogen pres- censive Impacts Plant. Special to The New York Age Sr. Louis, Mo., Oct. 15.—The Scullin-Gallagher Iron & Steel Company is making special efforts to secure a large number of Young Negro men whose ability and intelligence will enable them to develop efficiency and skill for employment in their establishment, which is said to be the largest of its kind in the world. In the South it is a common matter to see Negroes at work in the machine shops, foundries, mills, etc., and as brickmasons, carpenters, blacksmiths, painters, and at other skilled trades, where their efficiency commands the same scale of wages as does the workmen of any other nationality. In the North, East and West the opportunity to secure skilled industrial employment comes very seldom to the Negro, and then only when he has acquired that skill before coming into these sections. When an opening is developed not only to use the skill already acquired, but also the opportunity is given to acquire such training, it is worthy of note. Manager Knight Writes to Booker T. Washington. S. S. Knight, vice-president and general manager of the Scullin-Gallagher Company, recently visited Tuskegee Institute, Ala., and on his return to St. Louis wrote Dr. Washington in part as follows: "We manufacture open hearth steel castings exclusively and employ approximately from 2,500 to 3,000 per hour when the plant is open." "Our business is growing rapidly and we are in need of good, sober, industrious young Negro men who are anxious to advance. We can place them in some of the departments shown at a wage of from $1.75 per day upward. "The average rate of wages would be about as follows: In the Crane Department from 20 cents to 27½ cents per hour; in the chipping department the work is nearly all piece work and some of our Negro chippers make as high as $4 per day on piece work. We would be willing to start men in this department at $1.75 a day and advance them just as rapidly as they could go. In the moulding department our men working on machines ramming with pumps and hammering would make from $2.75 to $3.50 per day. We could start men in this department at $1.75 per day and advance them as fast as they could go. In our melting department we do not employ as many men, but we will have occasion to employ some in the near future. The only other department to day of our plant where Negroes are not employed is in the machine shop as machinists, which work at present pays from 30 cents to 42½ cents per hour, and in the pattern department where our patternmakers are receiving 30 cents to 48 cents per hour. "These departments we would like to throw open to Negroes and believe that this will be possible. What we wish to call to your attention particularly is the fact that there is no prejudice against a Negro man working anywhere in our plant when he can demonstrate his ability to do the work. "In our moulding department, among our skilled mechanics, we are employing 230 colored men and 88 white men; in our chipping department, which is semi-skilled work, we are employing 126 Negroes and 199 white men; in our melting department, which is skilled work, we are employing 36 colored men and 41 white men; of our crane runners, 56 are Negroes and 17 white men." H. E. Thomas Looks Into Conditions at St. Louis. In order that there might be no double as to the advantages offered by his firm to competent Negro men, Mr. Knight invited Dr. Washington to send a representative to St. Louis, whose expenses would be paid by the company, to examine and report the conditions existing. In accordance with this offer, H. E. Thomas, head of the Machine and Engineering Division of the Tuskegee Institute, went to St. Louis and visited the company's plant. He made an exhaustive report to Dr. Washington, and recommended strongly that some of their best graduate students in founding practices, equipped electrify and machine shop work be sent to this establishment. Via Thomas, the representative in St. Louis, Mr. Thomas said: Mr. Thomas about 400 colored men in this work, the most of them in the temporary department, have been given work in the purpose of teaching the arts trade, a most of their preservice colored molders have been their work from this instruction. A colored man is in charge of this instruction work or one branch of it. The company is engaged in making steel castings for cars, locomotives, air THURSDAY, OCTOBER 17, 1912 brake equipment; special gear wheels, etc. "The plant is located about five miles from St. Louis proper in the Manchester Car Line, a neat interesting suburb of St. Louis, where most of the workmen, white and colored, have purchased homes. There are both colored foremen in the workmen's local both in the workmen's molders, but no fraternity was noted, and it is reported that most worthy of mention has shown it all." "Most of the colored men have been with them from two to ten years, and I met about 60 of them, all of whom seemed satisfied with their positions, and they state that their wages range from $2.50 to $5.00 per day, depending on the skill and rapidity of the workman. One gang of dry sand molders is said to earn about $6.00 per day each." Mr. Thomas stated that a young colored man was promoted recently to the responsible position of operator of one of the largest traveling cranes, at a salary of $00 per month. The company has introduced heavy motor trucks, and Negroes are handling them. A Negro is the instructor in motor car management.

Little more than a year ago, a lawyer for attorney's office by the courts of a state awarded her $1,750 damno. Miss Rite, why is it a Jewess, is at dark completion and was unable to make the menace of the train crew believe she was entitled to ride with white persons. Judge Elliott Makes Comment but R-serves Decision CLASS LEGISLATION Baltimore Judge Says Idea Was Carried Out While and Colored Farmers Could Not Own Aging Farms. Special to THE NEW YORK AOR. BALTIMORE, Md., Oct. 16.—The validity of Baltimore's segregation law confining Negro citizens to certain streets was argued on a demurrer before Judge Thomas Ireland Elliott in the Criminal Court last week. Assistant State's Attorney Horton S. Smith made the argument upholding the constitutionality of the law. His line of argument evidently did not strike the fancy of Judge Elliott, who injected a number of comments. Attorney Harry Heckheimer argued against the law, and W. Ashline Hawkins, who has been retained in all cases arising out of violations of the obnoxious law, prepared a lengthy brief citing authorities to show that the City Council exceeded its authority in passing the law and that it was plainly class legislation. Action of City Council Questioned. Judge Elliott, in announcing that he would render a decision later, said it appeared to him that if the City Council had a right to make the races live in particular sections that it would also be possible to pass a law restricting colored people to certain farms in the counties. "There are several questions to be considered by the court," said Judge Elliott. "One is as to whether or not the legislature would have the right to discriminate between classes of citizens on the ground of diverse color. The Constitution of the United States provides that no person shall suffer discrimination because of race, color or previous condition of servitude. When it comes to discrimination based upon acts, whether or not the person is law-breaking or law-abiding, or because of his vocation, there cannot be a doubt of the rights of the legislature. I have always been of the opinion that the right of one citizen is the right of every citizen. "One of the inherent rights of human kind, long before the Constitution of the United States was heard of, was the right to hold property. Granting, for the sake or argument, that the legislature has the right to make laws as the holding of property in certain societies there is still the question of whether the City Council has the right to pass an ordinance under which the citizen entitled to own property under the state law, is forbidden under the city's ordinance to occupy it or to sell it to anybody at all. If the ordinance is valid, it appears to preclude the existence of property rights which seem to be fundamental. "The court does not interest itself in trying to ascertain the individual opinions of the men who pass a law, but the court is concerned with the object of the law. The title of the ordinance under consideration states that the object is to preserve peace and to avoid ill feeling. If it accomplishes the latter purpose it will be doing something which no human ageacy since the foundation of the world has been able to accomplish, and probably will not accomplish until the end of the world. Frequently what is the cause of ill feeling to-day is not the cause of ill feeling to-morrow. On the spur of the moment, however, I cannot call to mind anything that would be more calculated to cause feeling than this ordinance. Supports a colored man should move into a block where white persons have little power. Probably every white person would be before the Grand Jurist to have him prosecuted. Surely that would be creating ill feeling. As to preserving the peace, the Police Department is organized to do that. If the idea of this ordinance is carried out to its logical consequences it might be made to apply to the countries. Certain farms might be inhabited only by white persons, and another farm adjacent thereon only by colored persons." Judge Elliott, before whom the deuteror was argued, is a Republican and is regarded as one of the fairest judges in the city. DR. RANSOM AT COLUMBUS SHELLINGTON, NEW YORK HOLD THREE-CORNERLD DEBATE Large Crowd Heore Henry Lincoln Johnson, J. D. Garr and L. A. Lavell Speak—Recorder of Deeds Johnson Gota Great Ovation at Close of Address. Before a large audience at the Union Baptist Church in West 63rd street, Col. Henry Lincoln Johnson, Recorder of Deeds at Washington, representing the Republican party, swept his opponents from their feet in a three-cornered debate Tuesday evening, October 15. Counselor L. A. Lavell represented the Progressive party while Counselor J. D. Carr supported the Democrats. George W. Baptist presided, and he was fair and impartial in his attitude. Each speaker was allowed thirty minutes for his main argument with ten minutes for rebuttal. By drawing lots the opening address fell to Counselor Lavell, with Col. Johnson and Counselor Carr following. The lecture room of the church was filled with an interested audience, with quite a number of ladies present. All the gentlemen made good speeches from the standpoint of the cause they represented, and all were accorded the earnest attention of the auditors. Counselor Lavell, opening for the Progressives stated that he had been a Democrat all his life and never voted for any other than the Democratic tie but he could not support Wilson because of his intense anti-Negro prejudices; he said he had hoped that by reasoning with them the Democrats would ameliorate conditions but he has come to the conclusion that they cannot be reasoned with. He believed that the Bull Moose party would be the salvation of the Negro. Expressed Regret Over Attempt to Assassinate Receipt. Col. Johnson, in opening for the Republicans explained that he was appearing in the stead of Hon. J. C. Dancy. He said that as Counselor Lavell had laid the Democrats out he would be saved that job. Expressing the regret that should be felt by every true American citizen at the dastardly attempt to assassinate Col. Roosevelt, he said, "I would that God might let him live, and in the fullness of time call Col. Roosevelt to Him in his own way, and not by the unfair means of the vile assassin." Continuing he said that he regretted from the depths of his heart that when Roosevelt was President, not once during the seven years he filled the chair did he express regret for three hundred and fifty years of his country; did not once regret or condemn the lynchings, pillaging of homes, and ravaging of husbands from wives. He declared that President Taft had in no uncertain tones denounced the brutal lynchings occurring during his tenure of office, and that he is the only President since Lincoln who has done so. Said he: "I have no apology to make for being a Republican; I am not a Republican because of Tait; he might die and where would I be? If you follow men and not measures you are in a bad fix." The Bull Moose party was organized and their first move was to eliminate the Negro of the South, he devised a plan to move the New Orleans had said he joined that party to get away from the Negro. The speaker wanted to know if Roosevelt had been nominated at Chicago where would the Bull Moose be? Roosevelt at Chicago gave the Northern Negro his band and the Southern Negro his foot; turned the ten millions of Negroes STRAUS IVADES ISSUE Sidesteps Question to 'Demoting Department Employees—Refers to Coachman and Footman. In The Age of October 10, containing an account of a political discussion held at the establishment of J. C. Thomas, occurred the following paragraph: "Soil Johnson replied that Strus was not a friend of the Negro, and produced statistics showing that while Secretary of Commerce and Labor Strus had demoted Negroes, discharged a large number and had always catered to those with Southern prejudices. A copy of a letter, signed by Mr. Strus and addressed to Alfred S. Cowan, has been received at this office, which is reproduced below: October 14, 1912 This is a very well, but as will be not utterly fail to touch the matter question, and concludes the Progressive candidate of a confession by avoidi- tree. BULL MOOSERS PANIC-STRICKEN Harmful effects of Roosevelt's Letter to Julian Harris Being Felt Rooosevelt Managers Bring Col- ored Men from South to Put O.K. on Colonel's Negro Policy Progressives Fail to Hold Large and Enthusiastic Meeting—Weakness of Third Parry Shown. So terror-striken have become the Roosevelt managers over the ill effects of the Roosevelt letter to Julian Harris in which the Colonel characterized the colored voters of the South as venal, that Negroes are being imported from the South to appear before both white and colored audiences in the North to declare that the Roosevelt latest stand on the race question is just and human, and that the majority of Negroes in the South agree with the Colonel that the times is not right for the colored man in the Southern States to take an active part in politics. One of the principal speakers at a Roosevelt meeting at Jersey City Saturday evening was the Rev. W. H. Mixon of Alabama, who stated that he had come some fourteen hundred miles to tell the people of the North that the best Negroes of the South approved of Roosevelt's policy of building up a white man's party in the South. The Rev. Mixon did not arouse much enthusiasm by declaring that the Colonel had done the proper thing in excluding colored southern delegates from the convention. The waning of the Progressive cause in New Jersey was twice clearly demonstrated last week. The warrior of Armageddon hailed with great enthusiasm the coming of Gov. Johnson, Vice Presidential nominee, Wednesday night Gov. Johnson spoke in the New Jersey City High School Auditorium. However, the enthusiasm didn't permeate very far in this city. As the maximum seating capacity of the auditorium is not two thousand and it was only little more than half full—and the night was clear and dry. Saturday evening the Negro Bull Moosers and Bull Moosettes, including the curious, some two hundred strong gathered in Manning Hall, formerly the worshiping place of the colored Press byterians, to listen to the oratory directs from Armageddon and Alabama, with the others sandwiched between. Counsellor T. A. Spraggins, one of the foremost colored practitioners at the New Jersey bar, presided. Seated on the rostrum were Dr. Geo. E. Cauenu, Progressive candidate for elector; the Rev W. S. Smith, the Rev. Amark Harris, Progressive appointee of a Democratic Governor as head of the New Jersey Commission to the Semi-Centenniz' of the municipal in Philadelphia next year; the Rev W. H. Mixon of Alabama, Judge Raym and of Orange, a recent acquisition, and the Rev J. C. Butler. Tries to Explain Roosevelt's "Jim Crow" Policy. OUT OF TOWN CORRESPONDENCE KINGSTON. N. Y. Kimusron, N.

Straus, the Progressive Bull Moose, short, patriarchal and well-fed looking, and as solenin as one of Laban's idols Rachel stole, will have a hard time of it reaching the Governor's chair at Allan in the voting, November 5, ahead of Judge Job Elmer Hedges, the Republican philosopher and wit Judge Hedges started up State last week on his campaign to be elected Governor of New York, and, of course, took his philosophy and wit along. At Poughkeepsie he said, with the solemnity that laughs with the joy of living "Government is a thing to live under and not to live on. For my part I do not want to live like a statue modelling, as a necessity, but as a joy on my own behalf. Compare Dix with Hughes and Suller with me. While I have nothing to say against him, you do not have to take anything on the side with me." "Compare Sulzer with me," he says. Never! Let Sulzer do it. At Tarrytown Judge Hedges said. "I am going through this complaint without calling any human being a thief. I do not need to talk to you about good roads. Look at them. There is a difference between highways and highwaymen. The Democratic party is a band of men bound together by the use of mutual financial advantage under the name of politics and that is the controlling force in the Democratic party in this State." It is a wise purpose to start out to do anything "without calling any human being a liar," but no man who knows "the difference between highways and highwaymen" will deny that the Democratic party is a band of men bound together by ties of mutual financial advantage; that is to say, a band of men who regard "public office as a private snap." That is what Judge Hedges meant as to Mr. Sulzer and the Democratic party of New York State, but didn't say it. Without cracking a smile Judge Hedges concluded his remarks as follows: "It any set of men is prepared to make this a better State it is the Republican party. The State of New York reached its zenith during the administration of Gov. Hughes and fell down wretchedly during the administration of Gov. Dix." The fall from Charles Evans Hughes as Governor to John A. Dix was Luceric; what would be the fall from Dix to Sulzer! Vote for Judge Hedges and save the State. THE LOWER SOUTH DURING ELECTION TIMES Whatever may be one's individual attitude as to political parties it is now generally agreed that our quadrennial national political campaigns serve the purpose of educating the people and as a means of deepening love for one's country. The various activities during the election campaign for the Presidency have great educational value, but the same is also true of all the preliminary steps leading up to the nomination of the candidates. For a period of about forty-five years at least, ten states of the union have been largely deprived of the opportunity of sharing in the education of the masses of its citizens, especially the younger generation, or to share in the education that grows out of these great national campaigns. These ten states constitute the lower South. After the candidates have been named, the states of the lower South drop almost as completely out of sight and out of touch with the great stirring, throbbing political campaigns which stir and educate the rest of the country as THE SOLID SOUTH STILL, SOLID. In his mad twang through twenty-seven States recently Col. Roosevelt touched Tennessee, Georgia and Louisiana with the noise of his voice; there also was confusion a plenty, and he was the center of it. He found the South solid when he bolted into it and he found it solid when he bolted out of it. At Atlanta he had a great big white audience, Democratic to the core, many of them of the baser sort and drunken, who challenged the Colonel with banter, jest and jibe, so that he got red in the face and hot in the collar. When he went to visit his mother's grave twenty miles away he found the church closed. All the Bull Moose spirits had gone away. It was sad. At Nashville the sentiment was no less hostile. The audience was drunk with Democracy and had no stomach to mix it with Progressivism, being solidly the other way. At New Orleans there was more sympathy, if there shall be few votes, November 5. Louisiana is one of the Southern States in which the Republican party machinery was turned over to the "Lily White" nothings, with Pearl Wight as National Committeeman, by Col. Roosevelt when he was President. The three of them stand out in bold relief, who turned their "Lily White" thievings of Republican machinery over to Col. Roosevelt and the Progressive party, as J. O. Thompson of Alabama, Pearl Wight of Louisiana and Cecil Lyon of Texas. It was natural and easy for Col. Roosevelt to turn Pearl Wight's traitor face to the wall and plaster a lithograph image of Col. John M. Parker, a Simon-pure Democrat of the old school, on the back of it as leader of the Progressive party in Pelican. It has always been the fate of traitors to have their services held in high esteem by the Big Wig who profits by them and to have their persons and themselves held in lowest contempt. It will be that way in the final reckoning with Pearl Wight and all the other Lily White Nothings of the South who stole the Republican machinery and turned it over to Col. Roosevelt and the Progressive party. As Mr. William Shakespeare would say, "there's a divinity that'll shape their ends, rough hew them as they may." Col. Roosevelt was in New Orleans Friday, September 27, but Pearl Wight was not there. He sent a telegram which the Times-Democrat publishes in full, but does not give the point at which he was when he sent it. Modesty concealed the place. But Col. John M. Parker was there. So was his spirit, and the Times-Democrat translated it as follows: "The address was the most direct plea for the Southern vote he has yet made. While the race question was not mentioned, there was not a Negro in the hall, excepting two or three porters working back of the stage, and the appeal for a new white man's party was quietly but powerfully presented. In fact, three Negroes who had stepped in were politely but firmly told to leave, which they did." Here, then, was a great American, standing in the mud-soaked city where before the war Abraham Lincoln had walked the streets with sorrow in his heart as a flat boat hand, and claiming to wear the cloak of the martyred President, and appealing to a white "crowd that packed the Winter Garden," and ignoring the Negro, concerning whom President Lincoln wrote Gov. Hahn of Louisiana, the following words of prophecy: "I congratulate you on having fixed your name in history as the first Free State Governor of Louisiana. Now you are about to have a convention, which, among other things, will probably define the elective franchise, I barely suggest for your private consideration whether some of the colored people may not be let in, as, for instance, the very intelligent, as especially those who have fought gallantly in our ranks. "They would probably help, in some future time to come, to keep the jewel of liberty in the family of freedom. But this is only a suggestion, not to the public, but to you alone." Fifty years after, when they, all male persons in the State of Louisiana, are citizens of the United States and of the State, Col. Roosevelt turned his back on them and the doors of the Winter Garden were shut in their faces! "O, what a fall was there," you Roosevelt! of they were foreign territory. In these retrospect, and misses the great education states there is practically but one polity which comes to a people through seeing their ideal party, and that has been true for the disyears. Not only is this part of our mission of the live national questions country a loser under present conditions which so much to a free people facing a Presidential election, but it is also would so, intelligently as individually true during in election for local individuals rather than as a party of a political state officers so well as for municipal machine. We do not mean to say that there are not political contests in those states for there are contests and even bitter ones, but these contests are within one party where individuals are seeking nomination to serve through primary election. This means that the battle is within the party rather than between two or more great political parties. The result is that instead of the masses of the people being educated on the great moral, social and economic questions which divide the rest of the country, the canvass during the primary too often degenerate into a more personal quarrel between two individuals, or if not that it is committed to some essentially small local question. After the national parties have nominated their candidates for the Presidency, the Democrats, for example, do not as a rule send their great political leaders into the South so that the son of the South may see, hear and know them and become inspired by them. Not only do the strong and prominent men of the nation from any party not go into the South, but the strongest public men who are actually in the Southern states leave these states during national campaigns and go into other sections to enlighten the people leaving their own sections untouched. The party leaders naturally argue that there is no need to spend time, money and effort to get something which they know they can get without effort. The Republicans have not sent their great political leaders into the lower South because they argue that that part of the country is "so set in its ways" that effort is useless. No matter what the explanation given by the party may be, the fact remains darting our great national campaigns that about one-third of our country remains isolated as if it were foreign ter- Ask the average man why the lower South remains solid and isolated politically after the passing of so many years since the days of slavery, and he will tell you that it is because of the presence of the Negro votes. We used to think so; now we question whether this is the true reason. In the Southern states where there is the least opportunity for the Negro to exert any political power, those same states show the least sign of having any division at the vote or having anything but one political party. On the other hand, in the Southern states where the Negro vote is most active and where it is counted, there one finds that old conditions are ceasing to exist and in those states there are two or three pretty healthy political parties. Nothing that we have written should be taken to mean that we should favor going back to the old political conditions so far as the Negro vote is concerned. Far from it. But under the present conditions, we believe that the young white man is losing more than the Negro. But to continue: It we were asked to name, for example, the two Southern states that show the least sign of breaking up, or the least sign of having more than one political party, we should name Mississippi and South Carolina. Yet it was in 1890, or twenty-two years ago, that Mississippi by constitutional enactment, made it impossible for the Negro vote to exert any considerable power. In 1895, or seventeen years ago, South Carolina followed with the same kind of law, with the same result so far as the Negro vote is concerned. As stated, it is practically impossible for the Negro voter to-day in either Mississippi or South Carolina to exert any appreciable influence on the politics of the states, and yet these two to-day are more emphatically one-party states than they must believe the majority of the Negro voters may disfranchise. On the other hand, the only Southern states that have in recent years divided their votes sometimes to the extent of electing. Republican members of the electoral college or have elected Republican governors, are states like Kentucky, Maryland, West Virginia, Missouri and Tennessee, where the Negro vote has not been cut off as in the states that we have mentioned. We confess we do not know what the real cause of present conditions is, or what the remedy is, but we do believe that the time will soon come when so large a section of our country should cease to be so largely isolated as at present. In commerce, education, religion, the lower South is fast ceasing to be separated from the other part of the nation, and it should not be separated politically. FIVE HUNDRED DOLLARS FOR "SASSING" A WHITE WOMAN. Samples of Southern justice only appear in Northern and Western newspapers after being sited of all semblance of putting the white administrators of the law in the wrong, and when the samples are too large and glaring to be ignored as news of the day by the news agencies, all of which, tapping the Southern States, have an understanding that they will not publicly admit, to put the white man's construction on all the news, so that the cordial relations existing between the races shall not be disturbed." It is the old cry of "Peace! Peace! when there is no peace." Even when clashes of whatever sort between the races occur the white man's side only is reported in the daily newspapers of the South. To be convicted daily as a collection of chronic liars, in the malversation of the news and opinion of the day, should be infamy enough for the white editors of the Southern press. Their appetite, however, seems insatiable. In The Metropolis, an influential daily newspaper 'published at Jacksonville, Fla., a city of 50,000 population, we find the following news item in its issue of October 1: Washington Hawkins, a colored backman, who was arrested Sunday, charged with having insulted a white woman whom he had carried from the Union Station to a downtown hotel, was used $500 in the Municipal Court this morning. The case had been continued, and Hawkins was out of jail under a bond of $100, awaiting his hearing. To the evidence introduced in the case, Hawkins' remarks to the lady passenger were of a very insulting nature, and Judge Sweierkamp decided that the only way to protect the white women of the city against these insulting Negroes was to make an example in Hawkins' case. The $500 fine was accordingly handed out. What did "the white woman" say and do to the colored hackman to provoke him to "remarks of a very insulting nature"? Why did not *The Metropolis* report her remarks as well as his? If he had smashed the woman over the head with his whip a fine of $500 would have been equivalent to a chain gang sentence of one thousand days at fifty cents per day. Money is so much life blood which a man puts in the work to make it. When the municipality robbed of it so that he cannot put it into blood to make another $500 it placed itself in the position of being a murderer. "What are you going to do about it?" *The Metropolis* may sneeringly ask. We don't need to do anything. The law of Justice works its own revenge upon those who make it and douse it. *The Metropolis* should believe this. If it does not why does it carry a scriptural quotation at the top of its diary page every day? For October 1 the following was the passage: "Every kingdom divided against itself is brought to desolation; and every city of home divided against itself shall not stand." Matthew 12.25. Since 1888 Jacksonville has been twice devastated by fire and twice by yellow fever. These calamities came "as a thief in the night," leaving the inhabitants naked as to their backs and isolate as to their hearts, teaching those who refuse to learn that "every city divided against itself shall not stand"; that, as Dr. Washington has said, "There cannot be one law for the white man and another law for the black man." To draw $500 worth of blood out of a black man's heart for talking back at a "sassy" white woman is the sort of crime the spirit of the law events with the word of the law. Only a few days ago a cyclone starting in Mobile Bay, and shrieking itself to rest in Escambia Bay, carried death and the destruction of many millions of dollars' worth of property values in its sweep through Alabama and Florida. If the oppressed people and races and classes of the Nations had no appeal from the letter to the spirit of the law slavery would exist not only in the United States, but in the alien colonies on every European state today, and those who are now preaching and practising political, social and industrial injustice not oppression in the United States, age in all the other Christian Nations, are seething in their own fat, so to speak, starving in the midst of plenty and with wars and rumors of wars in Mexico, China, Africa and the Balkan States of Europe. The abomination that makes desolate is riding on the wings of the West winds. The Memphis may be sure that $500 in much blood to rob a bank man of for "mattering" a white woman. EDITORIAL NOTES THE NEW York Ace rejoices that the bullet fired by a mad fanatic of the Guiteau type was not fatal to Col. Roosevelt. While we are opposed to his policies and shall do all in our power to defeat him at the polls we believe that his taking off would be a calamity. We hope for his speedy recovery. Dr. A. Clayton. Powell goes at the matter in the right way to correct the evil when he shows by statistics that the Nogroes of Harlem spend $4,500,000 annually for food and clothing, the profit of which must be $810,000, much of which should be handled by Nogroes business man. How much of it is handled by Nogroes? Equation 12 shows how to go into business, however small the beginning and patronize them as well as the old ones who are already established and fighting to succeed. The price of grand stand seats at the championship baseball series, like the seats at grand opera, is too high to be reached by the lean pocket book, so that those with the keenest appreciation and the loudest enthusiasm are banished where some queer things are to be seen and heard. So it goes. The prizes in the lottery of life do not always go to those who have done most to degree them or are most competent to appreciate them. Mr. George W. Perkins, a great big Mooseyweaver, says, in the Philadelphia Public Leader, "Political parties, after all, are mere pieces of machinery through which the people collectively express their views." But in the Progressive party Col. Roosvelt insists that he is the people and the spokesman of the people. As a collection of mere pieces of machinery he is not interested anything that can talk as long and as loud as Co. Roosvelt. Mr. Ogden Mills, treasurer of the Republican State Committee, charged before the Senate Investigating Committee at Washington, that there were gross trade in the Bighth Assembly District in the Eighth Assembly District in New York County, chargeable to the mangers of Col. Roosevelt. As a ward healer Col. Roosevelt, it is being disclosed little by little, is far greater than as a stateman. He is being charged with being better and cleaner than other people in the game class and prove it. TELLS ABOUT MIXON Prominent Alabama Lawyer Writes About Negro Who Has Been Imported by Progressives to Tell North- ermers that the Best Negroes of the South Favor Building Up of White Man's Party. Special to The New York Age SIMA, Ma., Oct. 15. - George H. Craig, one of the leading white law years of this city, has sent the following letter to C. A. Thompson, of Washington, D. C., in which the Rev. W. H. Mixon, who is in the North speaking in the interest of the Third Party, is the subject. Mr. Craig's letter follows "I see in our papers that a Negro preacher named W. H. Mixon of this city has been employed by the Third Term managers to make speeches in New York and Pennsylvania. Now it possible, I wish you to send me the names of leading Negroes in those two states. I wish to tell them who this fellow is. He was born and raised in this county, is black, about the ordinary height,敢于演讲,敢于教育, well educated and a good speaker. He will pose as a presiding elder of the Methodist Church. He is merely a tramp preacher. He was an elder at one time, but his conduct was such that the church retired him. This county before the Negro was disfranchised by the Democratic laws requiring qualifications which they could not meet, voted about 7,000 Negro Republicans, the registrars are all Democrats, and a Negro, however well qualified, can very seldom source a registration certified by the control his vote represents it. Consequently there are only about sixty to eighty Negroes registered as voters, and they are mostly preachers and school teachers under the control of Democrats. In days passed when the Negro could vote, Mixon was a factor in politics until his sins found him out. He had considerable influence among his people and was on hand at all political gatherings of the party always broke. Always demanding and getting money for every turn he made the Negro also were paying him for our plans, and that he voted with them when he thought he could do so without detection. "Of course he lost cast and influence with the Negroes and the Republican public party, but he persisted in enforcing himself in and claiming to be a delegate to all their meetings, although never elected he was paid by the Democrats (or this so that they could keep posted, etc., and invariably kicked out. He was promptly and without question registered by the Democrats as a legal voter. He was a 'Taft man' until the Republicans of the county refused to vote in the delegate district convention that two Taft delegates, Bingham and another. He, however, appeared at the district convention without credentials except as he prepared himself, refused recognition, then fixed up papers and elected himself a delegate on the Roosevelt side to Chicago. Announced there that Roosevelt managers sent him money to go on. He went, was kicked out at Chicago (not daring to make a contest) and afterwards under J. O. Thompson and Hundley's grooming opened Roosevelt's meeting with prayer. He attended the Roosevelt Progressive Convention and with the other South in Negroes was recognized in the field away with all his money. He is ready to sell to both and all sides to the money. He is a plausible rascal and may do us some harm until found out. P. D. Parker, our member an national committee man, knows him well and knows him just as I do. Write A. D. Evans, Ch. Rep. Executive com., of Dallas Co., Selma, Ala. He is a colored man and reliable." WASHINGTON, D. C. WASHINGTON, D. C.

In his annual report to the trustees of Tuskegee, Normal and Industrial Institute Booker T. Washington states that the total valuation of the personal property, lands, buildings and securities in possession of the trustees is $3,016,825.47. Referring to the financial status of Tuskegee Institute Dr. Washington report: I am glad to say that the number of individual donors to the school has increased within the past twelve months. While the aggregate amount is not an arduity it is important, in my opinion, to increase every year the number of individual small donors. We have received during the year from all sources $805,178.88 for operating expenses; from understated legacies (to be used at the discretion of the Trustees) $26,268.21; for special donations and improvements of the plant. $33,344.23, of which $23,622.95 is still unexpended. The total amount added to the Endowment Fund during the year has been $28,500.50, making our Endowment Fund at the present time $1,859,015.08. The value of the plant at Tuskegee is now $1,362,601.24; the present value of the 19,910 acres of mineral land, given by special act of Congress some years are and remaining unused, is about $290,060.00, making a total valuation of $319,120.06, of which are and securities in the possession of our Trustees. $329,685.67. The attendance for the year has been 1967 young men and 578 young women. They have come from thirty-four states and shine foreign countries, or college and university students, who have entered late and left before the close of the year then has been the case herefore. In connection with the academic and industrial training, now given in forty trades or industries, farming and its various branches being the one most emphasized. Every industry which is taught is one in which our students have no trouble in finding employment. In fact, they are the most difficult, the most difficult is in our inability even partially to supply the demand for our young men and women; and they receive such instruction as equips them to become effective teachers in the industries. Reference has often been made in my reports to the fact that the work of the Tuskegee Institute could by no means be measured by the standard of an ordinary institution of learning. This institution, like the Hampton Institute, is one of which Tuskegee is in a kind of experiment station in education. Through such organizations as the Annual Tuskegee Negro Conference, the National Negro Business League, the Macon County Fair, the management of the Negro Department of the Alabama Agricultural Fair, a two weeks Short Course, an association of farmers' Improvement Clubs, Boys' Corn Clubs, monthly County Farmers' Institute, the publication of a farmers' newspaper, the Meadenger, the Mothers' Club, the work of rural school supervision, the distribution of health literature, the minister of education, the School of Interior and other forms of extension work we are reaching and helping thousands of people each year. School's Widespread Influence. More and more each year the institution is being visited by persons from all parts of the world who wish to study and use of education methods. In April there was held on our grounds an International Conference on the Negro. The Conference brought to us representatives from IS foreign countries or colonies of the same country who study and use of education our work for the purpose of helping dark-skinned races in various parts of the world. As a part of our extension work, we have been encouraging various state and national organizations to hold their annual meetings on our grounds, especially when there is much unused space in our buildings. During the past twelve months, and during the present summer, the following are some of the organizations that have been involved in the African Methodist Episcopal Zion Conference, Alabama State Negro Business League, National Baptist Sunday School Congress, Grand Lodge of Colored Masons of Alabama, Grand Lodge of African Methodist Association. While, most of these organizations pay something toward the expenses of their entertainment, they all cost the school something and add to our operating expenses. In a broad, educational sense it is worth while to have the leading and most influential men and women are what we are doing and get the general atmosphere and methods of the school. It is good to have a school that kept buildings and clean, attractive school grounds. Helping to Change Agricultural Conditions Banning with the organization of the Annual Negro Conference in 1891, the Tuskegee Institute has systematically attended to change and improve conditions in the South. The effort had made to induce the school to the one room cabin, to improve their farming methods, to secure better teachers and better ministers, and to give more attention to improving health conditions. The good results of this work are now apparent. One of the great needs on the South agricultural education or for the school is the proportion as farming methods are improved they will be better able to support their schools. To meet this need the Tuskegee Institute has carried on its Annual Negro Conference, as stated, has established local conferences, promoted twenty and state fairs, and has instituted demonstration work, has carried instructions to the farmers on the soil. It is certifying to note the increased interest that some of the white farmers of the South are taking in the subject of agricultural education for their children. Also in prizes were distributed to Negro farmers in Macon County. This money was given by the white planters and merchants and bankers of the county in order to encourage better farming. The large increase in the amount of property owned by Negroes, I am sure, lies in no small part to the teaching that has gone out from the Annual Tuskegee Negro Conference and similar meetings. I find that the Negro domestic farmers of the South own increased property from $116,000,000 to $116,000,000 from $116,000,000 to $116,000,000 or $21 per cent. From 1800 to 1919 the total value of farm property owned by the colored farms of the South increased from $177,000,000 to $193,000,000 or 177 per cent. One indication of the effect of our extension work is the improvement of the personnel of the Annual Tuskegee Negro Conference meetings. Whereas in former years it was made up for the training of the farmers and croppers, and a few owners, now it is composed largely of well-dressed, intelligent, progressive and wide-awake owners, who are always eager to discuss farming methods. At our last Annual Conference, some of the farmers brought photographs of the five and six acres of the fields in which they now live, and discussed intelligently the use of the improved farm tools and machinery which they are now using. One dealer in farm machinery stated recently that the amount of improved farm machinery that farmers have increased within the past few years by at least 100 per cent. Keeping in Touch With Offshoot Schools. It should be our policy in the future to keep in more vital and active touch with all the smaller schools, such as Utica Normal and Industrial Institute at Utica, Normal and Industrial Institute at Normal and Industrial Institute at Snow Hill, Alabama; the Voorhees Industrial School at Denmark, South Carolina; the Christiansburg Normal and Industrial Institute, Cambria; Virginia; the Robert C. Hungerford School at Hungerford; the Industrial and Educational Institute, Toppek, Kansas, and others that have grown out of Tuskegee or are officered by men and women from Tuskegee. We can do almost as effective work by heping these branch schools as we do with the other institutions. Tuskegee Institute could never have grown to its present position of usefulness except for the constant oversight of the Hampton Institute out of which it grew. I am pleased to report that through the generosity of our teachers, we are able to have one or more of our officers or teachers visit nearly all of these smaller schools. This has been helpful to the schools themselves, to the teachers making the visit, and to the student body Tuskegee, for in their reports to the students and teachers upon their return. Cost of Farm Training. For some time one of our greatest causes of anxiety has been the heavy cost of training our students in farming. During the past year every detailed expense of the farm has been studied and watched with the greatest interest. As a result of these efforts, we believe that we will have such information within a short time as will enable us to make a radical reduction in the cost of farm training. In the budget which is now before you, we ask for $4,350 less than last year for the present time in harvesting the finest crop of oats and peaches ever harvested in the history of the school, on land that was purchased some years ago for a mere pitpappe and that was then thought to be of little or no value. About 4,600 peaches a large proportion of the work of harvesting and preparing the peaches for the market is done by the girls. We have recently shipped from the institution two car loads of peaches from our farm to the New York market. So far we know, this is the first car load of peaches shipped from the mediate section of the country to the Northern market. The high cost of living throughout the country leads the Executive Council of the institute to recommend that in the future the price of board to the students be $25 as hereforest. I believe that the students are willing and able to pay this increased amount. If this recommendation is adopted by the Trustees, it will mean that we will receive from the students $25 in previous years, we have received in previous years. For the first time in the history of the school we have made an especial effort this year to secure gifts from colored people. While this appeal has not brought in a large sum, nevertheless, the school has received and in some respects surprising. These gifts from colored people, including individuals, churches, clubs and societies have amounted to $1,992 and have ranged in size from $25 cents to $100. The largest gift came from the Alabama Baptist Church. The largest gift, amounting to $30, came from the New York Colored Medical Society, and this society has agreed to give this amount annually for five years. In all, 1,022 colored people, representing nearly every state in the Union, have received and in some respects surprised the school with an individual gift to give $1, quite a number gave more than $1. The Model Cottage, authorized by the Trustee some time ago, has been completed and is not under construction. The three teachers' cottages authorized, one has been completed, and two-one, of which is for Mr. J. R. E. Lee, director of the Academic Depths, and will be completed during the summer or early fall. Some of our present annual scholarships are based on annual scholarships for the tuition of one student, the student himself providing for his own board and other personal expenses in the course of his studies. 2. Money for permanent scholarships. 3. Money for operating expenses in any amounts, however small. 4. $1,500 each for four teachers' cot- tains. $ 140,000 for a building for religious purpose. $ 6. $15,000 to complete the Boys' Trades Building. $ 7. $40,000 for a boys' dormitory. $ 8. $40,000 for a girls' dormitory. $ 9. An addition to our Endowment Fund of at least $20,000. The policy of the Trustees during the past two years of holding a meeting on the institute grounds at Tuskegee in February and in asking friends to visit the school during this period has resulted in the greatest enjoyment and encouragement. This policy, I very much hope, will be continued in the future. The trustees for all of their unselfish and helpful kindness, I am, yours respectfully, BOOKER T. WASHINGTON, Principal. May 31, 1912. FISK UNIVERSITY HAS JUBILEE Noted Negro Institution Celebrated Anniversary of the Jubilee Singers. Special to THE NEW YORK AGE. NASHVILLE, Teen., October 14—On October 7 and 8 Fisk University, the noted institution for colored youth, celebrated the forty-eightth anniversary of its founding and the forty-first anniversary of the going out from the institution of the first company of singers that brought to the attention of the world the slave songs which have been documented in history and which have been called by American critics "The Original American Music." On Sunday morning, October 6, at 11 o'clock, the memorial service was held in Fisk Memorial Chapel. The address of the occasion was given by Dr. George E. Haynes, professor of social science of the institution, on the subject, "The Faith of Our Founders." In describing the founders of Fisk, Dr. Haynes said in part: "Forty-six years ago while the smoke of war still hung over this fair region, a few men and women, God's messengers, appeared upon the scene to follow the trial of the army and to make the freedom of the sometime slave fully free. "They did not come with blare of trumpets, but with that and gentle sympathy of those who save; they did not bring bullets, but Bibles and spelling-books. Theirs was to be a conflict of decades, not of years; a battle against poverty, ignorance and superstition, not against opposing armies of Confederates. These missionaries founded Fisk School. "Five years after the arrival of these teachers, the pall of poverty gathered like a dark cloud over the settlement where nearly a thousand freedmen daily sought instruction and inspiration. "The leaders bent in anxious prayer for Divine deliverance and were shown the silver lining behind the cloud. Some of their pupils opened their mouths to sing and the world stood chirped. "Another three years passed and the money to meet their obligations was sung into their possession. These grounds, which we now enjoy, were paid for, and out of the slave songs was composed the symphony in brick and stone, Jubilee Hall." At 3 o'clock on Monday, October 7, an athletic tournament was held on Bennett Field, the center of the university campus. A number of running and jumping events for which medals were awarded the winners, took place and the conclusion of the meet was a football game between Pearl High School and the University. At 8 o'clock in the evening, the Rev. Dr. H. H. Proctor, pastor of the First Congregational Institutional Church of Atlanta, Ga., a graduate of the University in 1891, delivered an address to an audience of about a thousand on "The Theology of the Songs of the Southern Slaves." The exercises of the celebration concluded with greetings from a number of local educational institutions and with a number of Jubilee Songs sung by three of the original company of Jubilee Singers and the Mozart Society of the University. It was an interesting and inspiring sight at the close to see Mrs. Ella Shepherd Moore, Mrs. Mabel Lewis Imes and Mrs. Mabel Gordon Taylor, three survivors of the company of forty years ago, rise and lead the audience in "Swing Low, Sweet Chariot." HOLD THREE-CORNERED DEBATE (Continued from page 1.) in the South over to the tender mercies of the Hessians and vandals, and took care of the few Negroes in the North. Bull Moose Injurious to Negro Politically. Mr. Johnson referred to the efforts of the white people of all sections to unify the white people of the country, and said that if the white people needed unify the Negroes needed it to a greater degree. How can it help the Negro if we drive ourselves away? I have right to come to you and ask question; you must have a kindly feeling for me. When the finger of suspicion began to point at the first fratricide we know of, the question was asked him, "Where is they brother Alle?" He asked, "Am I my brother's keeper?" He declared that the Bull Moose movement was the entering wedge to destruction of the Negro politically. Mr. Johnson said that Roosevelt was surrounded by Democratic Republicans, and that it was their voice of Jacob but the hand of Esan, that while he had good friends among the Southern white people he could not trust his citizenship rights in the hands of the best Democrat that ever lived. He spoke of four years ago when the Negroes of New York section in which this meeting was held opposed to Roosevelt because of the Brooklyn affair, and asked what was the difference between Roosevelt then and now. At this point in Col. Johnson's address, some Bull Moose sympathizer in the audience evidently thought that too great an impression was being made by the speaker, and created a slight dis- $5.00 Reading's Mailed. 50c SEND DATE OF BIRTH FREDERICK, 62 East 125th Street, N.

"Never mind that, dummy; down south when we are walking through the woods and come across a highland tarpion, it never moves until we put fire to its back." He concluded his speech amid an omen that lasted for several minutes, and was not quieted until the presiding officer had called for order a number of times. Whatever the political leanings of the audience there is no doubt that Col. Johnson swelt them before him with the power of his eloquence and the force of his argument. Carr, for the Democrats, made splendid address, and though it was evident that there were very few Democratic sympathizers in the audience, they paid him the compliment of applauding liberally his flights of eloquence. PROF MANDO DEAD (Continued from part 1.) of an address to be delivered on Thanksgiving Day this year before the St. James Lycme. In this address he proposed treating of the lives of John T. Douglas and Samuel Coleridge-Taylor and their accomplishments as Negro musicians and composers. This address would have been accompanied by selections from the works of both composers. Prof. Mando's body lay in state in the studio of the conservatory, and hundreds of his former pupils, friends and acquaintances cause in to pay the last tribute of respect. Deceased leaves to mourn his departure, the sister, Mrs. Jane Price, who is 76 years old, and quite ill and two cousins. The work of the conservatory will probably be carried on by Mrs. Mando, who will take charge of the piano classes, and in the other departments she will have the assistance of musicians fully qualified to maintain the standards established by Prof. Mando. Merry Makers Give Surprise Party. YONKERS, N. Y., Oct. 15.—On Wednesday, October 9, the Merry Makers Social Club gave a surprise party to their ex-president, Charles H.

This institution has collected a fund of that centuries-old wisdom known as occult science, with the result that the school has a series of courses that aurpass anything of their kind either in the past or present. Few have attained the success in life they have desired. An even less number are accomplishing all they feel they should. Many do not understand other people. Many others are misunderstood. You may be a member of any one or several classes of such unfortunates. There is no longer need of being unfortunate. The Occult School of Science may make you mighty and moneyed. It is not necessary that you should have a fine education to get out of the slough, of despond you are in. The comprehensive courses which have been provided into realms of wealth and happiness have been made so easy and simple a child could make use of them. The combination of courses includes the Psychic Gift and Personal Magnetism, Egyptian Interpretation of Dreams, a comprehensive Treatise on Fortune Telling by Cards, Dominoes. --- Dice and Tea Grounds, Character Reading by Physiognomy and Phrenology, Astronomical Prognication List of Unlucky Days, Lucky Names, Numbers and Letters, Ancient Charms and Spells, Telepathy and many other wonderful courses, including the formation of a Success Club and most valuable information in regard to what produced the prosperity of such men as Philip D. Armour, F. W. Woolworth, Thomas A. Edison, Gen. Leonard Wood, Thomas F. Ryan, John Wanamaker and Thomas N. Vail. There is also included the Chart System of Chemistry, which will make any one with a master intelligence a competent character reader in weeks, and courses on the Methods of Successful Mediums, which tell you how to read sealed messages, produce "spirit" slate writing, "spirit" pictures, mystifying mind reading work, second sight, the bank note test, and clairvoyant book and slate mystery. Perhaps the greatest of all the courses of the school explains the Mystical Eye and Soul Kiss. It is by that great Siderial Secress, Vesta la Viesta, whose fame has been heralded both far and wide by the great newspapers of this country. In addition there is also an intensely interesting course in Graphology. Such a fund of knowledge is not offered merely to gratify curiosity, but as a means to give you an opportunity to "make money" such as you never had before. No one need longer complain about the high cost of living. Those who take advantage of the opportunity can live in luxury. The most interesting part of this magnificent proposition is that the Occult School of Science gives, for a limited time, its greatest book, which explains these courses.

A new feature in the musical devel- opment of United States Army musi- cians is the offer of the director of a New ‘York musical institute to train yearly five musicians chosen by ‘compe- tition from the various army bands. The War Department has accepted the offer and the first year’s scholar- ships have been awarded. The first name on the list was that of J. Thomas, chief musician of the Tenth Cavalry, one of the crack colored regiments of the army. Mr. Thomas, with the other musicians, enters at ance upon this. course of study. . SCHOOL MOVES TO HARLEM. | On November 1, the Music Schoo Settlement for Colored People, incorpo rated, will take possession of the hous. at 209 W. 133rd street, which will_b the Harlem home of the school. The rapid growth: of this institution ha: made it imperative that it should have some place of its own. “David -Manncs personally conducts the Saturday evening rehearsal of the school orchestra and his friendly aid and enthusiasm for the work is already beginning to show good results. He hopes to build wp a large: orchestra ca- pable of performing intelligently the best work in the fibraries of standard organizations before many months. A special feature of his work will be the arranging of the Negro folk song for the string orchestra. * : SUNDAY CONCERT AT YOUNG'S. The bill at Young's Casino on last Sunday evenjeg was a very good one and inchuded such acts as Anita Bush & Company, Tom Fletcher, Martyne and Turner, the Butlers and the Three Silbors. Under’ the direction of R. C. McPherson the selection of acts have shown a degree of class far superior to any bill of acts produced hereabouts because of the fact that no similar acts are engaged. thereby assuring Pleasing variety. Tom. Fletcher, got away with much applause for his witty monologue while- Anite Bush, although suffering from hoarseness ran to the jcloee second with the assistance of her two very clever girls who can certainly Epi their numbers over. | The team of jartyne and Turner created great ELECTION NIGHT Tuesday Evening, November 5, 1912 YOUNG'S CASINO, 334th St & Perk Avenue BRILLIANT BILL = —VAUDEVILLE——— | 6 STAND OUT ACIS G | 2 SURPRISES 2 FULL ORCHESTRA FOR SHOW.

Tem Harris Attracting Attention. Tom Harris, the Negro long distance Tunner, is meking quite a name for him- self in the various road meets around GreaterSNew York, Last-yepeke he en- tered the open invitation -pux-of the St. Vincent Ferrer Club, over a course of about five miles, and led the field home in the good time of 25.07. The second man was fifty yards in his rear. He took the leail soon after the start, and though challenged scveral times by other runners he was never headed. Last Sunday he entered the run of the Bradbury Field Club, over a course of about three and one-half miles, and ran third in a race in which the record was broken. The race was won by “King Harry” Smith, the five-mile met- ropolitan champion, in the corking good time of 19.58, which is forty-seven sec- onds better than the old record. Hannes Kolehmainen, the wonderful Finnish runner, was the official starter of the race. z Colored.

James H. Hubert and Miss Ellie A. Walls, M. A., have been during the past year pursuing studies at the New York School of Philanthropy and Columbia University, and have gained practical experience in social work in New York city under the direction of the National League on Urban Conditions Among Negroes. Mr. Hubert at the completion of his course of training was called to take charge of the social betterment activities at Gay Head, Mass., a community of mixed Indians' and Negroes. He has supervision of the amusements and recreational and educational activities of the community. Mr. Hubert is a graduate of Atlanta Baptist College, Atlanta, Ga. Miss Wallis has become one of the staff of the National Urban League and is on some special work in Baltimore Md., in co-operation with a social bereftement committee which is being organized in that city. At the completion of her work in Baltimore, she will go to Nashville, Tenn., to develop work in connection with the Nashville League on Conditions Among Negroes and the Social Science Department of Fisk University. Miss Wallis is a graduate of Fisk University and at the end of her year's work in New York received a Master of Arts Degree from Columbia University. Both of these social workers for a year have been on fellowships furnished by the National League and are the first trained workers sent out according to a plan which the League is developing. During the present year the League has three other fellows in training. The National League on Urban Conditions Among Negroes is an organization composed of white and colored people throughout the country who are banded together for the betterment of conditions among colored people in cities. The object of the organization is stated in its constitution as follows: I To bring about cooperation and coordination among existing agencies and organizations for improving the industrial, economic and social conditions of Negroes and to develop other agencies and organizations where necessary. 2. To secure and train Negro social work 3. To make studies of the industrial, economic, sexual and spiritual conditions among Negroes promote, encourage, assist and encourage in all kinds of work for improving the industrial, economic, social and spiritual conditions among Negroes. POSED AS NEGROES White Men with Faces Blackened Shoot and Mortally Injure Israel Goodstein—First Claim They are Negroes but Finally Admit Identity. Three white men, with faces blackened to make them appear to be Negroes, shot Israel Goodstein, mortally wounding him, Sunday morning, about 2 a.m., in his butcher shop at 745 East 170th street, New York City. Driving up to the shop in an automobile, two of the men entered the shop and accosted Goodstein. One of the men shot him in the stomach, after which the two men ran out and entered the automobile, which was driven away at a rapid gait. It was the aim of the culprits to pose as Negroes, and Goodstein, in his first statements to the police, declared they were Negroes. However, at the hospital he declared they were not Negroes but white men with blackened faces. The shooting is supposed to be result of a plot hatched by a woman whom it is said Goodstein has jilted. BALTIMORE MD BALMORE, Md., Oct. 16—Preparations are being made here for the celebration of the fortieth anniversary of the pastorate of the Rev. Dr. Harvey Johnson, of the Union Baptist Church, which occurs the first Sunday in November. He is an alumnus of the old Wayland Seminary, and was the most active figure in the fight which resulted in colored man being given the right to practice law here twenty-seven years ago. He was also active in the fight that resulted in the placing of colored teachers in the Negro schools here, and is one of the founders of the Clayton-Williams University. He has always been outspoken when the interests of the race demanded, and is highly respected. Mr. James T. Bradford, of Philadelphia, was in the city this week.
