FORECLOSURE REVEALS PLOT FORECLOSURE REVEALS PLOT Scheme to Keep Negroes Out of "Restricted District" Unearthed RUSE OF WHITE OWNERS Refuse Payment on Mortgage— Bring Suit Because Property Was Leased to Negroes ORDER TENANTS EVICTED Gustaa A. Saarinen Refuses to Break Lease Made with Miss Mary A. Newell in West 132nd Street. What seems to be the latest scheme to keep Negroes from renting in "restricted" districts in Harlem is brought out by a foreclosure suit entered in the Supreme Court November 1 by Christopher Moller, et al.ys. Gustaa A. Saarinen, and others, to foreclose a mortgage against the property at 223 West 132d street, leased September 28 by J. B Wood to Miss Lucy Payne Newell, who conducts Ye Idle Hour lunch and tea room. Information gleaned by THE AGE representative tends to show that Mr. Saarinen has this property in the hands of a white real estate agent to rent to white tenants, but the agent was not successful in renting it. Rather than let the house remain idle, accumulating expenses, the owner put it in the hands of a colored agent, J. B. Wood, who in a short while leased the building to Miss Newell at a satisfactory rental. There is a mortgage on the property which is held by Christopher Moller, John Moller and Charles G. Moller. When the interest became due on the mortgage, after the house had been leased to Miss Newell, Mr. Saarinen made several efforts to pay it, but was unable to find anyone who would receive it. The person authorized to receive it would always be "out." As a result the time for payment of interest passed before Mr. Saarinen could locate the agent. As soon as the payment had passed, the lawyer for the Mollers filed foreclosure proceedings, and had papers served upon Mr. Saarinen, Mr. Wood and Miss Newell. Mr. Saarinen immediately, through his attorney, filed his answer to the process. It is said that Mr. Saarinen tendered the full amount of interest due, but it was refused. He then made an effort to have the mortgage transferred to other parties, but this proposition was refused also. It is reported that Mr. Saarinen was informed that if he would dispossess his Negro tenants he could adjust the matter without further trouble. This Mr. Saarinen declined to do. Matter Will Be Threshed Out in Court. The foreclosure proceedings are to come up in an early session of the New York Supreme Court, and the entire matter will be threshed out. If the case goes against Mr. Saarinen in the first trial, he will carry the case to the highest court possible, believing that he will be sustained and the mortgagers forced to accept the interest or else allow the mortgage to be transferred. J. B. Wood, in speaking of the suit to an AGE representative, stated that he acted for Mr. Saarinen in leasing the house, and that he had used his best endeavors to procure tenants against whom no complaint could be made; that Miss Newell conducted a business first class in every respect and catered only to the better element of Negroes. He said also that a number of white people had been to the lunch rooms ostensibly for meals, but evidently with a view of ascertaining as to conditions that prevailed. It is certain, from information received, that a studied effort has been made to have it appear that there might be some disorderly feature connected with the running of this place. in this connection Mr. Wood and Mrs. Newell charge that a prominent Newell resident of this city has been very much interested in having Miss Newell give the lease of this house, even offering to procure another house for her in a place other Negro tenants in the city. Mr. Newell will also be interested in her lease if such bad (Wood) would have to design the lease in Newell. The New York Age. Y. M. C. A. CAMPAIGN Negroes of Baltimore Start Movement to Raise $100,000 for Building—Julius Rosenwald and White Y. M. C. A. Pledge $25,000 and $50,000, Respectively. Special to THE NEW YORK AGE. Baltimore, Md., Nov. 20.—A city wide campaign to raise $25,000 among the men and women of the race toward a $100,000 fund for a new building for the Colored Young Men's Christian Association opened here Monday and will continue until Wednesday evening of next week. Julius Rosenwalk, of Chicago, has promised to give $25,000 and the local white Y. M. C. A. the remaining $50,000. The campaign is in charge of International Secretary J. E. Moorland, who has conducted successful campaigns for new buildings for the race in a number of cities. The work of raising the $25,000 is apportioned among ten captains, each of whom has ten men under him. The captains are T. A. Date, Walter S. Emerson, Dr. T. S. Hawkins, Dr. Albert O. Reid, W. T. Greenwood, Glendford Pennington, Dr. T. S. Hawkins, Thomas J. Smith, Dr. J. C. Robinson and Samuel E. Young, James A. B. Callis, Dr. Howard E. Young, John H.

Chavis, well known throughout the country, has been arrested by the California authorities for soliciting and collecting money for a magazine he never published. LIBERIAN DEBT Washington, D. C., Nov. 20. The State Department has been advised of the completion of arrangements for the issue of bonds for the rehabilitation of the finances of Liberia and for the international control of Liberia customs revenues under the general supervision of President Rae Pulse (Clark, of the United States), who will be appointed in his position on the recommendation of President Taft, and will be assisted by three men from Germany, France and England respectively. NEGRO COMMUNITY ATTRACTS ATTENTION Plateau, Ala., Has Nearly 3,000 Inhabitants-Every Business House Conducted by Negroes. Special to THE NEW YORK AUOR PLATTEAN, AU, Nov. 19. This little town, Plateau, is about six miles from Mobile and is connected by street railway with this important seaport. A school known as the Plateau Public School has been organized with Prof. I. J. Whitley as president. A recent farmers' conference was held here and was largely attended by many of the farmers of this immediate section. The following facts about this town may be interesting to the readers of THE AUOR. 1. It is entirely a colored community of about 2,000 or 3,000 people. 2. Every business house (store) in the immediate town is conducted by a colored man, there being a dozen or more of these stores. 3. A large majority of the colored people own their own homes. In fact, there are 'a very few colored people there who do not own their own homes. One of two colored men are renting five or six houses each. 4. A majority of the men work at lumbering about one mile away. Quite a number, however, in addition to the stores, are beginning to cultivate their plots of land, ranging from a half acre to five or six acres, with a view to trucking in the Mobile markets. 5. The colored people have raised $900 and have purchased an old dwelling and about one acre of land for the use of a public school. No building was provided them. 6. The teacher, I. J. Whitley, has moved here and lives among the people. He is steering them in the right direction, having first set the example of whitewashing his school house, school fences, cleaning his yards and keeping things in fairly good repair. A Tuskegee graduate of last year, a young woman Miss Olegra Boyd, is teaching both cooking and sewing, and has organized a mother's club, which club supports the domestic science work. 7. The fact that the Mobile County Fair Commissioners have asked Mr. Whitley to gather up the exhibits from the schools and colored people in the county and have charge of their county fair exhibits, the esteem in which Mr. Whitley is held. Mr. Whitley is endeavoring to get PRESENTED by the aunt of mended the aunt of own and one Negro as carriers. But the department overruled his re-embarka- tion and instead appointed two Negroes and one white man. The Man Farthest Down By Author of "Up from Slavery," "My Larger Education. Etc. This is the record of a trip made by Dr. Washington for the purpose of studying conditions in Europe, and it is a most illuminating book. For there is no one whose keen sympathy and understanding enables him really to depict the conditions of the man farthest down like the author of "Up From Slavery," and the great beauty of it is that it is filled with such optimistic observations founded on solid fact and deduction as "Bad as conditions are in some places, I don't think that I visited any place where things are not better now than they were some years ago." His journey was a journey among the safest speciales in European life. As he says: "Some people will think, perhaps, that everything I was looking for was commonplace at bad, and that I avoided everything extravagant with white looking at. My only excuse is that I fact, not looking for the best at the worst, omitting for the man farthest down. The inst PRESIDENT EMERITUS OF LINCOLN IS DEAD The Rev. Dr. Isaac Norton Rendall Expires Friday of Pneumonia Services Attended by Large Number of Graduates of University—Deceased Gave Life to Education of Negro. Special to THE NEW YORK AGE LINCOLN UNIVERSITY, Pa., Nov 20-- The funeral of the Rev. Dr. Isaac Norton Rendall, President Emeritus of Lincoln University, who died last Friday of pneumonia, was held Tuesday in the Mary Dod Brown Chapel. The services were largely attended, and a number of the graduates of the university were among those who came to pay a last tribute to the man who gave the best years of his life to the cause of Negro education. Dr. Rendall was born in Utica, N. Y. September 30, 1825, and was graduated from Princeton College in 1852 Princeton Theological Seminary in 1855. He spent two years traveling in Europe, and was ordained by the Presbytery of Mohawk in 1805. His first charge was at Mohawk, N. Y., and from there he went to Emporium, Pa. On the day that Abraham Lincoln was shot he was on the train to take the presidency of the Ashmun Institute, and the name of the school was changed soon after to Lincoln University. He served as president until 1806, when his nephew, the Rev. Dr. John B. Rendall, succeeded him. Probably no white man who has taught Negro youth was more revered by his students. He received many flattering offers to go elsewhere, but always declined them. Under his tutelage some of the best known men of the race had their futures shaped. Lincoln graduates are scattered all over the country, and many have been conspicuous by their success in different fields. No deserving student ever went to "Pop" Rendall, as all the students affectionately called him, to ask for help, and was denied. He was alert of mind until the last, and never gave up his keen interest in the welfare of the students and the alumni. When Dr. Rendall took charge of the old Ashman Institute it had one small building and no endowment. To-day it has buildings valued at $300,000 and an endowment of $700,000. EDUCATOR TO SPEAK.

Department re. WHITE DEMOCRAT TALKS National Commissariat for District of Columbia Quoted as Being Opposed to Appointing Negroes at Washington. Special to THE NEW YORK AGE WASHINGTON, D. C., Nov. 19.—John F. Costello, Democratic National Committee for the District of Columbia, is quoted as having declared against the appointment of any colored men to office in the District. Costello regards all colored Democrats as renegade Republicans and has stated that there are too many deserving white Democrats for office to consider the claims of former Negro Republicans. Mr. Costello, as National Committeeman, will no doubt be consulted, and his advice followed in District appointments. His declaration means that the reported ambition of E. M. Hewlett to be Judge of the Municipal Court, the position he once held as a Republican; the Rev. J. M. Waldron and R. R. Horner to be Recorder of Deeds, and Fountain Peyton and Robert Waring to be Assistant U. S. District Attorneys will not be realized. And it also means that these positions, now held by colored men, will go to white Democrats. A NOVEL INVENTION Frank Brown Invents Wave and Gravity Motor—Gives Successful Demonstration at Baltimore. Special to THE NEW YORK ACM. BALTIMORE, Md., Nov. 20.—A demonstration of Browns wave and gravity motor was held no-night at Young's Hall, 1911 Druid Hill. The machine is the invention of Frank Brown, who says that it will eliminate the use of coal, reduce the cost of labor and do away with expensive electrical energy. The invention is designed to be placed in the ocean where the receding and incoming waves and the force of gravity product motion and in turn produce electrical energy. It is claimed that the current generated by this machine can be used for lighting, for moving trains and for running machines several hundred miles from any given point where one of these motors may be placed. The motor is designed to rest on a base of reinforced concrete, fortified against climatic changes. A series of boats are used to make the motor steady and regular. The Atlantic Perfected Motor Company, incorporated under the laws of New Jersey, with an authorized capital of $250,000 has been organized to manufacture Mr. Brown's invention. The promoters say they expect to begin operations next spring. PROMINENT FRATERNITY MAN DEAD W. H. A.

DIVIDEND Augusta Negroes Conduct Fair Association on a Paying Business Near Five Thousand Persons Witness Football Game Between Haines Institute and Paine College. Special to THE NEW YORK AOR. AUGUSTA, Ga., Nov. 19.—The sixth annual Negro Fair closed Friday evening after the four most successful days of its existence. It opened Tuesday morning, November 12, with an opening address by the Rev. Richard Carrol. President of the South Carolina Negro State Fair, Columbia, S. C. It was a notable effort, and a tremendous crowd heard him. Wednesday was Pythian day, and the special feature was the annual Pythian prize drill. The first prize was won by Damon, Company A, the champion company of Georgia, and the company which has never been defeated in a prize drill. Capt. John L. Jenkins commanded. The second prize was won by Pythian Company D. Capt. S. B. Harris. Judges were Col. L. E. Moseley, Capt. L. A. Norlett, J. C. Lokey and Capt. T. L. Walker. Thursday was the red letter day, for on this day the football teams from Haines Institute and Paine College met in their annual contest under the auspices of the Fair Association, which has become the most important event in the athletic schedule of the two schools. There have been two contests preceding this one: the first was a tie, the second was won by Haines with a score of 6 to 0, and interest in this game was at fever heat. The grandstand was divided into two sections, and the purple and white of Paine waved a riotous contest of color with the black and red of Haines. Probably 5,000 people were present when the two teams lined up for the struggle, a large number of whom were leading white citizens. The game was thrillingly exciting, and when Johnnie Collie, quarterback for Haines, went through Jaine's heavy interference for a run of 60 yards to a touchdown, the Haines girls and everybody else went wild. Haines won by the score of 14 to 0, and thus becomes unquestionably the champion. Exhibits in the woman's department were better than ever, and the judges had a hard time making their awards. Judges in this department were Mrs. Anne Moseley, Mrs. Grace Sweet, Mrs. Maria Berrien and Mrs. Ella Wray. In the horse show some splendid specimens were shown, and prizes were awarded in all the divisions. Dr. S. S Johnson, Wm Youngblood and C. J Floyd were the judges. The baby show brought forth a number of Augusta babies ranging in age from four months to three years, eight months. Prizes were awarded by the Rev. R. J. McCann, D. D SOUTHERN PROGRESS SAILOR COMMENDED CAMP FIRE GIRLS' CLUB New Organization for Negro Girl's Auxiliary to Y. W. C. A.-Demonstration in Custume and Yell Taught. What promises to be the most popular movement for the training' of our young women physically and otherwise, is the Camp Fire Girls' Club, which had its beginning in this city under direction of Mrs. Helen Curtis. The move for the new organization, which started a few weeks ago, has resulted in the securing of a membership of 110 girls, with the following young women as guardians: Mrs. Dora Cole Norman, Mrs. Sadie D. Tandy, Miss Mae Clark, Miss Margaret Parker, Miss Carrington, Mrs. C. Holloway Cabaness, Mrs. Bowers, Mrs. Richie, Mrs. Y. Ladson, Mrs. W. P. Hayes and Mrs. Helen Curtis. At the first public meeting of all the girls, which was held on Thursday evening at the residence of Mrs. Curtis, the parlors and hall were crowded to guests of the Y. W. C. A. Mrs. H. B. Schuyler, the chief guardian of the Camp Fire Girls' Club of New York, in her lecture explained the entire movement, and with the assistance of a young woman in full costume as demonstrator, taught our girls the yell. They also instructed in camp fire tactics. Miss Tatem, the new secretary of the Metropolitan Board, Young Women's Christian Association, made a brief but interesting address complimenting Mrs. Curtis and the girls on their splendid showing. Mrs. Curtis made the closing remarks. The Camp Fire Girls' Club is an auxiliary to the Y. W. C. A. Mrs. Curtis has the united support of the West 53d Street Young Women's Christian Association in the movement. BIG GIFT TO WASHINGTON Special to THE NEW YORK MEG. TUSKEGEE, Ala., Nov. 19.

Washington organized a movement to secure a special gift of $50,000 to lighten his burdens and encourage him in his work at Tuskegee, to be given annually for five years from a number of selected persons throughout the United States. The movement has been so successful and, spontaneously responded to that $53,000 a year for five years has been guaranteed. Winds and Rains Badly Damage Banana Crops-25 Per Cent. of Fruit Crop Lost-U. F. Co. Worst Sufferer. Advances from Kingston, Jamaica, tell of the visit of a hurricane to the island last Saturday which resulted in the destruction of about 25 per cent. of the fruit crop of the island. For nearly two weeks, there have been unprecedented rains, which have not helped matters. The roads have been blocked and traffic on the railway has been tied up. The city of Kingston is completely cut off from the west of the island. Next season's fruit crop will be an exceedingly small one. The United Fruit Company interests have been heavy losers. REPUBLICANS ORGANIZE Speakers' League. Will Propagate Republican Principles—Important Meeting to be Held Sunday at Headquarters of Republican State Committees. The first important meeting of local Republicans since the election will be held at the headquarters of the Republican State Committee, 43 W. 30th street, Sunday, November 24, when an organization will be effected for the purpose of propagating Republican principles. The following call has been issued As loyal Republicans, we recognize the fact that it will be necessary in the near future for the people of the country to appeal to the Republican Party to again take charge of governmental matters because of the proven incapacity of the Democratic Party to successfully understand and to apply large policies of government.

That as Complaints are Made Against Them for Ungentlemay Conduct. Special to THE NEW YORK AGE. TRENTON, N. J., Nov. 20.—Pullman porters take exception to the statement of William R. Cuthbert of Lynchburg Va., who, in his efforts to free Mis Gladys Elizabeth Meyers of killing her mother on a Pennsylvania Railroad train, told the Trenton authorities that the girl was justified in shooting her mother as she was afraid of the porter "The fear of the while girl in the South for the Negro is greater that any in the North can realize," declared Cuthbert. "This girl had great trepidation of an attack from the Negro porte in the sleeping car, and that was the first thought was to protect herself and mother leaned over to kiss her. He first thought was to protect herself and valuables from this supposed attack and she fired at once." W. H. Green, the Pullman porter who took the smoking revolver from Miss Meyers and gave it to Conductor R. P Mead, declares that the assault mad on his character by Cuthbert was unjustifiable; that his department has such while a Pullman porter that ther was no reason for Miss Meyers to suspect that he contemplated attacking her Pullman porters who have been acquainted with Cuthbert's statement that the girl had good reasons to fear Green declare that such talk has been ginger out for the purpose of creating prejudice against Pullman porters. The fact that no charges are ever preferred against them to ungentlemanly conduct is an answer to Cuthbert's allegations it is contended. Thoroughly Investigates Shooting. A thorough investigation of the shooting is now in progress by the local police and detectives. In this investigation the detective force of the Pennsylvania Railroad, headed by Criti Croakley will give assistance. Croakley, who was called here as soon as the shooting be came known, conferred with Captain Cullton and decided to bring the crew of the train on which the shooting occurred here for examination. The deed was doubly horrible, because the mother, who had left the bert in the sleeping car, where her daughter lay, had stooped over the girl to carrieve her before re-entering the coach. This tender action was her death warrant. The girl, who after boarding the train claims to have developed an awful fear of the colored porter, thought that the man was attempting to attack her and to her of her jewels. In her daze condition, Miss Myers thought only o-protecting herself and her valuables. She reached for a revolver that she anther mother had purchased in Pittsburgh and tired at once. She was horrified to hear her mother: scream: "Gladys, you have shot me!" The revolver was a Police Colt, of 3 caliber. The heavy bullet entered the aged woman's right lung, taking a sligh upward course. With blood flowing from her mouth, Mrs. Myers staggered into the smoking car, followed by her daughter, who realizing the terrible ac she had committed, was bordering on hysteria. As her mother reached the center of the car, Mrs. Myers caught her, but not before. Mrs. Myers had collapsed. Realizing that her mother was seriously wounded, the girl screamed for help. Owing to the early hour, there were few more than but she was ready to go to the young woman's assistance. Miss Myers' version of the shooting is that she had been aroused by her mother who amounted that she was in another part of the car. Mrs. Myers and she flocked during her mother's encounter and was awakened suddenly when she saw the contents of the car and came into the car. She said she pulled the revolver from under her paw and then reloaded that she shot her mother, then quarked action she exploded was over the feather. It was then that the bullet came to the head. R.

The large and steady influx of Negroes from the Southern States, seeking better conditions of government under which to live, and a more adequate compensation for their labor, in the States of the North and West, has brought and will continue to bring a great many undesirable persons, criminally inclined, if not confirmed, before they leave the Southern States, who promptly give an account of themselves in their new surroundings. They are in no way modest in their conduct in public places, are hardy with the offensive epithet that provokes anger and the blow that calls for blows, and stand in no awe of the police and a term in prison. If they want anything and have no money or credit with which to purchase it, they grab it wherever they find it. A casual reading of the daily papers of Wilmington, Philadelphia, New York, and Boston will show that the "undesirable Negro and his doings" are lamentably on the increase among us, and are being mercilessly dealt with by the police, who are disposed to give them less consideration than that given white undesirables of the same character. It is not a pleasant subject to consider, but it is one of those subjects that refuse to be ignored. The Northern and Western newspapers are giving a great deal of space and share headlines to the undesirable Negro and his doings. "How does that concern us?" the Negro highbrow may ask. The answer is plain enough. The few undesirables are making a serious problem for the desirable in the simple but all important matter of their bread and butter. They are fetching all Negro working or seeking work under suspicion as being unruthile or dangerous, and predisposing employers to refuse employment to those seeking it and to be mistrustful of and to discharge those they have, in order to be on the safe side. That this condition is existing and growing in the large cities is borne out by the trouble everywhere our men and women are having to get desirable employments and keep them, and by the alarming increase of the idlers who block up our street corners, hang about saloons and choke up the concert halls. We state the case as it confronts us, and becomes more and more a menace to the well doing of those of the race who must work for wages. On the other hand, we have found in the country districts of New Jersey and Pennsylvania that farmers are reluctant to hire Negroes because they are not disposed to give as much labor and attention to the work for the same wages as white help, and they are afraid to have them about because of the atrocious crimes against persons and property committed by them here and there and reported in the daily and weekly newspapers with minute elaboration and detail. How are we to meet the condition? As the intelligent men and women of the other races of the population are trying to meet the condition forced upon them by their undesirables; by organized charities, law and order leagues, Christian association work, Salvation Army rescue work, prison relief work, and the like. Our churches and preachers would to great advantage practice and more the philosophy of the present and less that of the future, more the way to live and less the way to die. It would help wonderfully to stem the tide of the Negro's indifference to mus It is of the greatest moment and measure in the history of THE Age to know from what viewpoint President Taft regards the recent victory of the Democratic party which swept him out of office and well nigh obliterated the Republican party. We had not expected that he would regard the disaster from the same viewpoint as we do, or as do that large number of readers of THE Age who regarded the Republican party as the sheet anchor of their first faith as men and citizens, and its misfortunes as personal to themselves; we did not expect that the President would regard the disaster as seriously as they do because the President is a white man, and is as free and safe in his constitutional rights of citizenship and manhood rights of privilege and opportunity under one party government as another and in one section of the country as in another, and while having decided preference as to party and as to section it is easy for him for the time to be satisfied with and in any party or section. But that is, very unfortunately, not true of the Negro people in any section of the Republic, the law and public opinion circumsering them more and more in their constitutional rights of citizenship and manhood rights of privilege and opportunity. In a speech November 12, at Washington, in Continental Hall, to the Daughters of Confederacy, who had that day laid a cornerstone for a monument to General Robert E. Lee and the Confederate dead in Arlington Cemetery, and standing in the tragic shadow of personal and party defeat, President Taft said, among other things: "For years after the war the Republican party, which had carried a nation through the war to its successful conclusion, was in control of the administration of the Government and it was impossible for the Southerner to escape the feeling that he was linked in his allegiance to an alien nation and one with whose destiny he found difficult to identify himself. Time, however, cures much, and after a while there came a Democratic administration of four years and then another one of four years. Southerners were called to Federal office; they came to have more and more influence in the halls of Congress and in the Senate and the responsibility of the Government brought with it a sense of closer relationship to it and to all the people for whom the Government was carried on. "I speak for my immediate Republican predecessors in office when I say they labored to bring the sections more closely together. I am sure I can say that so far as has in me lain I have left nothing undone to reduce the sectional feeling and to make the divisions of this our country, geographical only. But I am free to admit that circumstances have rendered it more difficult for a Republican administration than for a Democratic administration to give to our Southern brothers and sisters the feeling of close relationship and ownership in the Government of the United States. "Therefore, in solving the mystery of that providential dispensation which now brings on a Democratic administration to succeed this, we must admit the good that will come to the whole country in a more confirmed sense of partnership in this Government, which our brothers and sisters of the Southland will enjoy in an administration in which Southern opinion will naturally have greater influence and the South greater proportionate representation in the Cabinet, in Congress and in other high official station. While I rejoice in the steps that I have been able to take to heal the wounds of sectionalism and to convey to the Southern people as far as I could my earnest desire to make this country one, I cannot deny that my worthy and distinguished successor has a greater opportunity, and I doubt not he will use it for the benefit of the nation at large." This is a very broad view of the situation for President Taft to take, and we do not blame him for taking it now as he has taken it during the past four years; but it is not now our view and has not been during the past four years and we doubt if it will be during the next four years; it will depend in large part upon the words and acts of President Wilson and the victorious Democracy in Congress and forty of the forty-eight states. President Cleveland was a very courageous man and as broad on the race question as we could desire any. President to be, but he was not strong enough to compel the Democrats in the Senate to vote for the confirmation of his appointments of Negroes to foreign and domestic positions in the public service, but had to rely upon Republican senators to help him out, and he was unable to prevent Southern members of his Cabinet and their Bureau Chiefs from rejecting Negroes who passed civil service examinations, and who were "cited" to them and from making wholesale discharges of those who had come over from the former Republican administration. The streets of Washington were cumbered with Negro civil service eligibles who had been forced off the Government pay rolls by Southern Cabinet officers and their Bureau Chiefs. President Wilson may be a stronger man and a better friend to the Negro people than President Cleveland, and the Southern Democratic antagonists to the Negro may have become enthusiastic missionaries for Negro uplift; we do not say that it is not so, but we do say there is nothing in the record to prove it, and that the evidence has all to be made. The Ack has plenty of patience and the charity that is not stinted in giving credit to whom credit is due, as we get the credit, and without in the least anticipating it. If the sections are drawn closer together by further persecution of the Negro citizens in violent abuse of the civil service act and by the introduction and enactment of threatened legislation intended to further "deny and abridge" the constitutional rights, privileges and immunities of Negro citizens, and if a Bryanized financial and economic policy shall be adopted and pursued, so that the business and labor of the country shall be violently disturbed, with increased cost of living and unrest as the result, it may prove more costly to the country to have drawn the sections more closely together by the election of Gov. Wilson than President Taft seriously considered in his optimistic address to the Daughters of the Confederacy. use of desirable employment when he has it and help him to secure it when he has not got it but seeks it, and teach him to look more solely upon the sure death that lurks in criminal ways and criminals. Our preachers' meetings should take up the more social and industrial side of the race problem in their discussions and in their work severally, as pastors, more than they have done and are doing. They are the largest and most influential organized body for race uplift that we have, and the race expects that they will give more and more of their thought and labor to the problems of life that make for weal or woe in the condition of the whole people. We have our own vast problems of political, moral, social and industrial uplift, as others have, to contend with, and they are beginning to press very hard upon us. MR. TAFT AND THE SOUTH. The way the South has treated Mr. Taft proves conclusively that there is little hope in the near future for any party to divide the South or win it away from the Democratic party. If this could have been done, the South certainly would have manifested some gratitude to Mr. Taft for the support which he received to please that part of the country during the last four years. No President has ever come on his way so far to try to please the South as Mr. Taft. He has been retained from putting colored people in office at the request of white Democrats, he sides he has placed Southern white Democrats in office to the exclusion of white Republicans, and to top all off, he has placed an ex-Confederate soldier in the position of Chief Justice of the United States. Surely if the South had any gratitude it would have manifested it toward Mr. Taft for all that he has done. Far from doing this, the South has given Mr. Roosevelt a greater vote than it has given Mr. Taft. Southern white people are peculiar, but they know what they want, and it seems that they usually get it. COL. ROOSEVELT IN THE CAB INET As we did all that we could as a Republican, partisan to prevent Gov. Woodrow Wilson from being elected President, and would do it again under the circumstances, so shall we do all that we can as good citizens to hold up his hands as President of all of the plebs to this end we shall not hesitate to commend every act of his as President we regard as good, and to condemn every act of his as President we regard as bad for the country. We have no advice to give the new President, as we do not belong to his party, but as his fellow citizen and a manufacturer of public opinion we shall not hesitate to make as many suggestions to limit from time to time as we may require for his good and the public good, and we feel sure in advance that he will thank us for doing so. did not have the power to nominate him on the basis of his principal advents to select for his principal advents the two men who are more than all others responsible for his nomination in June and his election in November. We refer, of course, to Col. William Jennings Bryan of Nebraska, who secured Gov. Wilson's nomination in June, and to Col. Theodore Roosevelt of New York, who made certain his election in November. We suggest as Secretary of State, Col. Bryan, and as Secretary of War, Col. Roosevelt. AN ELECTION FREAK Some queer things happened in the late election. The voters of the Sixth Iowa Congressional District have elected S. Kirkpatrick, a blind Democrat, who is a legal resident of North Carolina, to represent them in Congress. He was born in Iowa, but had not lived there for twenty-five years. Some years ago he was shot by a Negro in a revenue raid and lost his sight as a result of it. While in Iowa last May Mr. Kirkpatrick attended a Democratic convention and made a Democratic speech. The convention nominated him, and he won the seat over the Bull Moose and Republican candidates. The district has always been overwhelmingly Republican. The Federal Constitution declares (Article 1, Section 2) that "no person shall be a Representative who shall not, when elected, be an inhabitant of that State in which he shall be chosen." Now, what is the legal status of Mr. Kirkpatrick, who was born in Iowa, but was an inhabitant of another State when elected to Congress? The Democratic House will doubtless find a way to give him his seat. The Democrats already have a blind Senator from Oklahoma. THE FUTURE. Now that the election is over, we want to urge with all the force at our command that our people settle down to "hard pan" and devote themselves to the matters of life which are really going to tell for themselves and their children. During the next eight or ten months it will possibly be true that a dozen prominent colored people in the United States will be put out of important Federal jobs, and a smaller number be put into prominent Federal jobs. All this will affect the individuals concerned, but will affect only in a very slight measure the progress of the millions of our race. The future of the millions of black people is not dependent upon a few individuals being put out of office or being put into office, but is dependent upon the success of our people in getting land, building houses, organizing schools, colleges, universities, churches and securing justice in the courts and in public travel. We advise that for the next two months our people cease to discuss politics, cease political activity in a large measure and devote themselves to the importance of conditions in their community. We advise that a Negotiative League be organized in every community, that a literary society be organized, that a women's club be organized wherever these organizations do not now exist, and wherever they deserve new work should be cut out. Let them and the organizations strengthen. Let us get down to business in relation to the uplift of our race materially, educationally, morally, religiously, spiritually and civilly. There is plenty of work to do in every community. What is done in Washington will concern the people at home very little, but what is done in each individual community will mean the uplift and strength of 10,000,000 people. Let us cease political speculation and get down to real business. LARGE SUMS FOR EDUCATION At a meeting of the General Education Board held several days ago $440,000 was appropriated for education among white people, north and South, in this country, and $5,000 was appropriated for education among Negroes. We are wondering if our race is doing its duty in making applications to the General Education Board for help. Unless there is a screw loose somewhere it seems to us that we should get more money from this board for the education of ten millions of people than $5,000, considering the large amounts appropriated for white schools. We understand that the General Education Board does not appropriate money unless the institution will agree to raise a certain amount. We earnestly advise the colleges and universities existing for colored people to do their part in making application to the board and try to meet the requirements of the board, so that our race will receive a larger share of the money. The minutes he has made mostly stratefies in the Democratic party who have remained from other parties, do not want Col. William Jennings Bryan to have a place in President Wilson's Cabinet. We think he should have the first place. I feel more sure about my religion than I do about my politics. I say Col. Bryan. That is not a bad state of mind to be in. the city's population are represented in its schools and should be represented in its board of school management. It has been demonstrated that in all such work, where there are many racial elements, the representatives of each of them are best equipped to represent the whole of them. It is no reflection upon the faithfulness of the whole Board of Education, representing the interests of the whole school population, to say that each member knows best the peculiar needs of his race, group and district, because he is bound to make a special study of them. It is just that the Negroes of New York should have a member of the Board of Education because the Negro school population have interests which could be better and more sympathetically appreciated by one of their own than by those not of their race group. In saying this outsiders should understand that we have no separate school system in New York and do not need any. We have a common and just pride in our schools and in their teachers and pupils and we feel that that pride would be stimulated if we had a representative of the Negro citizenship as one of the members of the Board of Education. We can recall with pleasure the fact that the Negroes of Kings County were long and wisely served on the Brooklyn Board of Education by Dr. Philip A. White, Mr. T. McCants Stewart and Mr. Samuel R. Scottton, before Brooklyn became an incorporated Borough of Greater New York, and we are sure that we should get like satisfactory service if the appointing powers would give the one hundred thousand Negro citizens of the Greater New York a member of the Board of Education. A few good men have been mentioned, but it seems to us that Dr. E. P. Roberts would be generally acceptable to the interests concerned and if they all would concentrate their efforts upon him it is highly probable that his appointment could be secured. Anyhow, the united effort should be made. EDITORIAL NOTES. Prosecution of Jack Johnson has developed easily into legal persecution. Hayti and Santo Domingo, it is said, have buried their war talk and fast sinking. Dr. John Milton Waldron of Washington asserts that 20 per cent. of the Negroes voted for Gov. Wilson. President-elect Wilson should be officially pointed of the fact at once. Ground has been broken for "the Colored Y. M. C. A. branch building" on Christian street in Philadelphia. The branch has now a membership of 50 and great things are expected of it. The New York Times says "unfortunately the Republican party will endorse a reorganization." Undoubtedly it is in a situation to stand all sorts of reorganization, but by its means. Prime Minister Jose Canalegas, of Spain, the chief of the oldest statement of Europe was assassinated in Madrid November 12, by a young anarchist, who shot himself. He had the instruction of being the wisest and strongest statesman Spain has produced in this generation. He certainly led much to make Spain a better and stronger country. The anarchists' head should be thoroughly dissected and analyzed by scientific criminologists. It cannot be like any other sort of heads. Thirteen years ago when President Cleveland left the White House, a South Land, Ind., Democrat vowed he would wear a board until another Democrat should be elected. His name is Peter Kreezmer and his hair is very red. He had to pay fifty cents to get his head shaved, so rank was the growth of thirteen years. He gathered up the fiery red lamb and has had a watch chain made of it, which he will send to President-elect Wilson. Thirteen is generally considered an uncanny numerical combination, and President Wilson will get the full benefit of it "for better or for worse." Chicago is a mighty good town in which to cure the get-rich-quick disposition of those who do not know the rules of the game. Patrick Carrharer, a young Nebraska farmer, eight months ago went to Chicago, and now announces that having lost $60,000 in the saloon business: "I am going back to Nebraska to begin life over again. I should never have left the farm." He will find it easier to begin again than to succeed again. It is a risky business to sell out a business about which you know and which you are prospering at and undertake a new business about which you know nothing. A farmer who thinks he can run a saffron in a sink like Chicago must be a real frick of nature. Industrial insurance for employees is gaining in favor with business men. The American Telephone and Telegraph Company and its connections has just set aside a $10,000,000 fund for pensions, sick benefits and insurance which will benefit 175,000 employees. The fund will be distributed on the age and term service basis. On the time we have held our pension, sick benefits and insurance our company can have 2,000 of 175,000 employees, industrial insurance in fact of employees will have become a fixed system. Our business interests are on the way and will grow to that point. Make no mistake as to that. that would be a compromise to him to send his son to a period of eight years." He was half-grown boy when he lived in Columbia, but that he spend his winters there seemed "an ideal suggestion" to Mr. Wilson, who said: "Of course, I expect to have my same old room when I return to the old homestead." The South claimed him and he answered, "Here am I." So. We think it very approvate that he should so answer, and we are sure he will find Columbia a very desirable place in which to spend his winter vacations. Socialist leaders are very proud of the large gains they made in the late election and claim that by the end of the next four years they will have forty members of Congress. Perhaps, but they lost the only one they had in Congress, the highly intertwined Victor Berger, of Milwaukee, where everybody drinks beer and but little water. Our good friend, Charles Edward Russell, the defeated Socialist candidate for Governor of New York, says "our million votes were Simon-pure Socialist votes." It takes plenty of enthusiasm and the "never gay quilt" spirit to win in any cause. These were characteristic of the anti-slavery propagandists which remained with them until every chattel slave was free. The Socialists have plenty of enthusiasm and stick in their propagandism. Are the Filipinos ready for their independence? Some twenty thousand of them celebrated the election of Gov. Wilson as President last week, on the picturesque "laneta" in Manila, and voiced the demand for "Immediate Independence." The American system of public schools in the Islands and the training in, American ways of conducting public business have done much towards preparing the Filipinos for independence, but the preparation was made possible by the public's support for the Filipino's capacity for development—a respect we found by no means shared by the thousands of Democrats and Southerners in the Philippines, with Vice-Governor Luke E. Wright of Tennessee, at their head, when we were in the islands in 1903. Col. Henry Watterson, of the Louisville Courier-Journal, thinks that "Woodrow Wilson is abler and far more highly equipped, much better qualified to make a really great President than was Grover Cleveland." Perhaps, but we shall believe it when Woodrow Wilson shall have proved it to be so as President. Grover Cleveland was not a brilliant man, but he was a safe man, with plenty of courage. For instance, he made a stronger and more persistent fight to give Negroes a fair chance in the government service than he has been credited with in recent years. If President Wilson loses as much twenty-eight years after he will come near breaking down the color line in politics. They say it is broken down now, but it is not. The Democratic Administration will have to do that during the next four years, or it will still remain to plague the nation. "IS THE NEGRO HAVING FAIR PLAY?" Booker T. Washington's Article in the Magazine for November Re- view. The contribution of Or Booker T. Washington to the *Century Magazine* has proceeded much favorably comment, because of its directness and the obvious language employed. The following newspaper review is proof of the interest it has aroused and that it has been very generally read by the whites. Is the Negro Having a Fourth Century? The answer is in *Booker T. Washington* pips, and answers in the November issue of the *Century Magazine*. In all of *Washington*'s writings there cannot be a stronger plea, going band in mind and word in mind, than the plea that appears in question帖 has been more clearly and convincingly answered. Comparing the chances of the dark people in the old world with those in this country, he briefly, but effectively, makes us think that the black people in America, and then immediately impales into a discussion of the "unimposed laws," asserting with vigor, that the basis cause of racial troubles in America rests in the unequal laws that have been imposed on the black people, the fact is that a large part of our racial troubles in the United States grow out of some attempt to pass and execute a law that will make and keep one man superior to another, either he is intrinsically superior or not. Lincoln said that no man should govern another without the other's consent. Dr. Washington states this himself: "We should not allow anger. He adds: 'No greater hard can be to any group of people than to let them feel that a statutory enactment can keep them superior to anybody else. No greater injury can be done to anyone without it, because he belongs to this or that race, or because of his color, he will be advanced in life regardless of his own merits or efforts.' With this weeping, Lincoln said: 'If you build up an argument, clear the bell, proclaim, beyond the perdurance of a doubt, that the Negro's fair chance in this country, stripped of all verbiage, and reduced to the last analogy, is in the breach than in the observance.' The very striking feature of the article is the unleaved, vicarious manner in which the doctor handles the subject—railway disorientations, pligadged message, and the use of Negro education, language and time. Upon these subjects his language is as bold as the militants as uncompromising as the aggressive seeker for justice, but without as sane as the statesman who plans, to insupermance of reforms to harmonize destruction, or restraining a fundamental right of any one class. Taking these four subjects scribitation a sentence quoted from each is suffice to give some idea of the veracity, strong, much truthful condemnation of these injustices that the article. The article constitutes one of the strongest arrangements of those who are guilty of these injustices, and the severest judgment valid by this distinguished educator, author and constructive statement or by one of the subjects of railway disorientation he says. With few everything the railways are closest to the most good business concerns in the world, and taking just as much money from the black and there is no process to show that a company possesses a station railway discrimination, because of color, results in a heavy financial loss to transportation companies. On the subject of appropriations for Nerro education he says: "It is only natural that the Negro in the South should feel that he is unfairly the country distrusts no school at all, or one with a term of no more than four or five years, taught in wreck of a log or forbore prostrate, about half the price of a first-class convict. And then he shows that the Negro pays more than his share of education in the South, and quotes from white men for further proof. He condemning the convict labor evil in the South, he closes his arrangement that of evil with the following declaration: Justice in the courts makes slaves of two races in the South the white and the black." On the subject of the law he says: "The total mistake to teach the young black to work in the white man that the dominance of the white race in the South rests upon any other basis than absolute justice to the weaker man. Then pressing the barbaric crime of lynching to the door of the black man, he feels that they have ten millions of people feel that they are not sure of being fairly tried in a court of justice, when charged with crime that they have not had a fair chance." The article in its entirety is a clever interlacing of calm, but bold, censure for the assailant and strong, but just defense of the victim. It constitutes that precludes any "come black" enemies. The facts are there. The militant spirit is there—plainly in evidence, however, much sanity and a statesman's wisdom subties it to a point in harmony with the hope for a permanent peace. Ten millions of the enemy equipped can not violently fly at the throat of eighty million fully equipped, with the hope of success. The small, unorganized minority must always arbitrate with the great and precipitately sever all alliance. Thus arbitration should be but a temporary treaty upon which to base a more advantageous treaty later on, at some more propitious time. This sentiment is transparent throughout the article. It has ever been the cornerstone in the struggle against the enemy, realizes the injustice—just and exasperable impatience of his race for the denied rights that are clearly theirs, but a wiser discerner into the future they they, he is aware that impatience that brooks no delay, without sufficient excuse, always extends, rather than imposes over the day of realization of the hope that prompted impatience. But no review of this article, in many respects the most veritable, the most uncompromising, and the most appealing Dr. Washington ever appeared in, finds him unable to be read every line and every sentence in the ten pages. An the Negro who fails to secure the Century Magazine for November and reads "Is the Negro Having a Fair Chance?" negates that white may give him a chance to be a fruitful prisoner of opportunity and restriction, of expedition and inexperience. There is but one thing to which the Negro may drive, actually drive, a white man, no matter how just the Negro's cause, and that is to resentment. To everything that is resentment, Dr. Washington is be persuaded by same, sound reason, And Dr. Washington, whose contact with and understanding of the white majority is greater than any living Negro, does, and will depend upon reason—reason, fortified with achievement, the ability to properly adjudicate the just claims of his people. Generous Spirit of Century Magazine To the Editor of The Arc Permit me to congratulate you upon your textual under the caption 'The Century Magazine and the Negro', and upon the general excellence of The Age. It is proper that The Age be reading paper, should take the opportunity to publish the Century toward our work. With respect to my own work, the November Century contained three, and not two, of my poems, as your editor'd states, the third being a debut verse in the 'Latter Nerv' department of the December Century. I understand, will also print some of my dialect verse. Let me thank you, most heartily, for your kind words concerning Dr. Washington's article in the November Century, entitled "Is the Negro Having a Fair Chance? Dr. Washington does not believe that the black race ought to read his masterly article and thank God for the man. I know of no other member of the race who could have secured, in the Century, or in any other leading magazine, hearing for the race as Washington did for the race as well. Yet, as even the loveliest James Whitcomb Riley has said, sometimes: "It's the man that does the best." That gets more kicks than all the rest. We are fortunate in having a Booker Washington: May he never become discouraged as an advocate of all that is best for the race. I am glad to be a member of the race that has produced him. Most gratefully and sincerely do I acknowledge my debt of thanks to for his production in the Century, and for his prudent and sensible leadership. Very truly yours, JAMES D. CORROTHERS.

Christmas creeps on apace, girls, and if you are going to buy any presents it is time to be considering them. Last week the Order of Spugs was created by no less a personage than Mrs. August Belmont, for the benefit of those who are rebelling at useless Christmas giving, and they are legion. It is true, many of us burden ourselves with giving to such an extent that we don't recover in nerves or finances for many months after the holiday is over. It would therefore be a good idea for girls of color to also become Spugs, and resolve they will not give if the burden is too heavy upon them; that is if they really cannot afford it and are merely giving because it is the custom to do so. But as I aforesaid, if you are going to make any presents, and there are few of us who have not some dear ones to remember, make out a list and betake yourself to the shops your first opportunity, so you can give some thought to your purchases, which you can't do if you wait until the last moment when the stores are crowded and everybody is tired and you are likely to purchase any haphazzard thing that presents itself. Resolve that this festival only comes once a year, and you will bring to it a spirit of good-will and cheer, and not one of bitterness and discontent. Answers to Correspondents. Clara: Yes, cheerfulness. I am sure helps digestion. An authority on the subject tells us "A sour disposition generates a sour stomach. Healthy digestion is favored by normal hunger, by enjoyment of food, and by freedom from care, fretting and grief. The meal hour should be the pleasantest one of the day. Never indulge in unpleasant discussion at the table. Talk of pleasant things, and remember that laughter is a barometer, not only of mental happiness, but also of physical health."

Strange that Negroes were in attendance especially in the "proof." The city intends building a $100,000 auditorium in one of the parks with a seating capacity of 2,000.

If her hair be hear A stifling and spiring a song or a tear; Nor blush to be caught in the morning glare; With run-down heel and with towled hair With delight of time, but with none to spare For little attentions to keep her fair In the eyes of the man who found her rare And whispering ere Her charm and her freshness died. She twists her locks in a frowny knot; Her dressing gown bears a great grease in her hair The rip in the back of her sacque she's forgets; There's a stain on her skirt and an ugly hole In the heel of her stocking, and one in the sole of both her slippers, that plainly show The need of rejection at each worn toe tight How tightful and narrow and dull's her soul; She stands stock-still while his world speeds on. Till at last she is simply a prickling thorn in his heart. All the rose that she was is gone: By her hands alone are his violins torn. The softening veils that affection wrought To keep his sweetheart and wife that he might Herself she must thank that his dream is wrecked For men lose love, when they lose respect I dig me a song of the platter Of the sun on the moon Who hid her day and who throw away Her chances, when beauty and wit could play. Who lazed and who lounged and who did not stil A finger to add to the charm of her Who would not of helpless and unguents and myr The story's not new and anew 'twill occur; As she warned, so will many another fool err.

M. to 12 P. M. nov. 14-3 Previous to hearing Mine. Hackley at Washington hat week up acquaintance with her was rather unique. It seemed that Opportunity had issued a similar decree regarding Mine. Hackley as the cranky old adult who is responsible for the saying: "Children should be seen and not heard." For the past four years I have been privileged to see Mine Hackley and talk with her on numerous occasions, but not until last Monday week did I get an opportunity to hear her. My desire to hear Munc, Hackley in what she terms "a song recital and demonstration in voice culture," had been more than ordinary. She has always impressed me as a woman who is doing things, and then there seems to be a difference of opinion as to the practicability of her doctrine as an exponent of voice culture. I am always attracted to the work of those who occasion a diversity of opinion on one subject, as it means that the question at issue is not of the passive, negligible quality, and furnishes food for thought. When everyone agrees it is seldom that the subject at issue is worthy of serious consideration. Muse, Hackley was greeted by a large audience, or to be more accurate, besides using an oft-repeated bit of verbage, she was greeted by a large and appreciative audience. I was told by those who are considered authoritative in amusement circles of the Capital City that the only recital that compared favorably with Muse, Hackley's from the standpoint of attendance since the first presentation of "Hawaiian" by the Coleridge-Taylor Choral Society was given a few months ago at the Howard Theatre. That the singer won many new friends was plainly evidenced by the appliance which was not only humourful but sincere. In her recitals Mine, Hackley is the quintessence of the term "the whole show." For nearly two hours she is the bright particular star and all the minor satellites in one. She does all the entertaining, successfully filling the bill as singer, accompanist and taker. She even does a hit of comedy—just a slight suggestion of it to produce a ripple of laughter, penninium, now and then. Poor local talent! As a rule local talent always gets an opportunity to appear when a new singer or musician comes to town, it being perceived that its presence is a guarantee that the affair will be a financial if not an artistic success. But no local talent for Mine, Hackley. She is the big IT, working alone and gathering in all the applause that comes her way. I was very much impressed with Mine, Hackley's work. As a singer she is an excellent creation of what she represents. While her voice has no great natural capacity, yet her use of it is a convincing example of how a singing voice can be acquired, for hers gives evidence of the highest degree of cultivation. Mine, Hackley revealed in English, French, German and Italian selections, and she was quite exquisitant in her intelligence in areas and commercial passages which showed that she is master of her voice. In order to be a demonstrator it is absolutely necessary that one have control of his voice, and in advancing all her theories whether as to power, sweetness or flexibility, her voice served her faithfully and well. To be able to sing in some language is quite an accomplishment, although there were many in the audience at the Metropolitan Church who would have preferred the one of one language only — English. But Mone. Huckleby showed that she was considerable of those who bear her work with the woman her board in foreign programs but who did not know what the was singing about by formatting each program in the audience with a printed page, which are given away with the program, on which was printed the foreign advertisements translated in English. The song racial given by Mine. Buckley is quite entertaining and shows her as an artist of abilits, but if the did not sing a note she would instruct and charm in her interesting demonstrations in voice culture. Her talks are far more beneficial than her singing, for in songs while she gives an exhibition which shows the result of her musical education and backs up her showings as to voice building, in her demonstrating work she inspires and kindles a flame of hope in the heart of many who sit and hear her. One of the chief reasons Mine. Hackley's talk on more culture made a hit with me was because it was full of optimism and taught the Negro to think something of himself. She believed that the racial characteristics we possess should be regarded as blessings, and argues that the wide mouth, big nose and other strong physical characteristics with which we are married should be turned to good purpose. It is the contention of Mine. Hackley that nature made the Negra a born singer, and that the only reason that he does not rank higher in the musical world is because he has not taken advantage of his natural gifts and developed. In her discourse of technical musical science Mine. Hackley makes known that she is a firm believer in plenty of fresh air and deep breathing. Some of her talks recounts me of the advice given by my instructor in physical culture when I was in schools Mine. Hackley is a firm believer in the excessive use of fresh air, which the regards as cool. Advise to a good voice, good health, an active mind, a strong personality and an amiable disposition. Mine. Huckabee is planning to open a normal institute of Voice Culture in Chicago with a view to, turning out students who will be capable of giving them in vocal culture to hundreds of inspiring colored young men and women who are unable to suffer their ambitions at this time. If she instils in her teachers the more inspiring, optimistic, idealistic and common some teachings that the gave utterance to at Washington the race will greatly profit thereby. For although some may disagree as to her method some can dispute her high motions to create better conditions for the race in the realm of music, nor can anyone question the good she has already done.

Murphy and Frances are at Altmeyer's Theatre, McKeeport, Pa., with Reading to follow. Copeland and Payton are at the Auditorium Theatre, San Bernardino, Cal., with Empire Theatre, Fresno, to follow. Fiddler and Shetton are headlining the bill at Loew's Theatre, New Rochelle, N. Y. There is some talk of the managers of the various colored theatres forming an association, with booking offices in New York. Sturms and Thompson are at the Colonial Theatre, Nashua, N. H., with Music Hall, Portsmouth, to follow. It is reported that Bessie Sims, at one time a member of the Cole and Johnson company, has been left $2,000 and has gone to St. Paul to get the money. At the New Castle Theatre, Philadelphia, this work are the Sunny Diane Girls, Gueckorf and Wallace, Arthur Ray and King and Gee. The Ethiopian Comedy Four, Hodges and Lannochmere, Denalow and Denalow and Simms and Simms are at the Auditorium Theatre, Philadelphia. The Brooks-Smith Players have concluded a successful engagement of seven weeks at the Crescent Theatre and will open next week in Philadelphia. Charles E. Johnson and Fannie Wise are one of the entertaining acts at the Hinson Theatre, Union Hill, N. J., this week. The act is the first on the hill after intermission. Dou Michaels has entirely recovered from his recent illness, and the act of Michaels and Michaels is playing over the Locus (Crescent, opening at the Gurkey Square Theatre. Bonny and Freeman write from abroad that they are meeting with success in vancouver. They are at the Trevi Theatre, Bremen, Germany, and will open at Fledermann's Theatre, Hamburg, in December. Rumor has it that the Six Musical Spellers had been booked for the opening bill at the Lafayette Theatre, 132d street and Second avenue, but that the management cancelled the act on the ground that it would draw too many admired people. A denial from the management is expected hourly. Edgar Connor and his Six Bamboo Girl opened at the Odeon Theatre, Newark, N. J. Monday. The act was staged by Jesse A. Shipp. Sam Corker, Jr. is manager. In the act are Edgar Connor, Mattie Harris, Cecil Mann, Jessie Ellis, Bessie Vaughn, Marion Potter and Helen Williams. The act consists of five numbers and each one with special occasions. WOMAN I'M ZOO WISE FOR THAT OM SON DON'T LET DEMCITY FOLKS DO YOU After dickering with the United people for several weeks for time, but to no good purpose, Leon Williams has gone over to Loew. The Dixie Serenaders pened at Hammerstein's Victoria Theatre. a few weeks ago with new costumes, scenery and material, and wore the hit of the bill. Yet the act was unable to get booking on the big time. Leon Williams is president of the Colored Vaudeville Association. ANITA BUSH INJURED. Last week while playing at the Dutchchess Theatre, Poughkeepsie, N. Y., Anita Bush was accidentally injured, due to the carelessness of a stage manager, and she has been compelled to leave the theatre to attend is under the care of the doctor at her home in Harlem, Miss Bush was rehearing her music while a stage manager was moving scenery. The latter lost his grip and a piece of the scenery hit Miss Bush in the back, knocking her into the orchestra pit. FELDMAN LEAVES SIXTH AVE. FELDMAN LEAVES SIXTH AVE. N. S. Feldman, the well known theatrical promoter and theatrical costumer, has moved his place of business from 523 Sixth avenue to 841 Eighth avenue. For many years Mr. Feldman's Sixth avenue establishment was a meeting place for colored performers, and in moving to new quarters Sixth avenue will lose a landmark. Mr. Feldman's telephone number is Columbus, 9065. CONCERT AT YOUNG'S. The Sunday night concert at Young's Casino has materialized into a permanent institution, having gained a deserved patronage. The bill last Sunday evening, which was up to the excellent standard presented by R.C. McPherson, opened with Ray and Ray in a clever contortion act, followed by John and Lila Moore in a protean sketch in which Italian characters predominated. Anna Durell, the Dutch comedienne, sang and danced admirably. Walsh and Redden, Irish comedians, screamed the house and were tied by Wesley and White in a comedy sketch. The Texas Tommy Dancers, a company of four, including Pugh and Lillard, closed the bill, receiving riotous applause. After the performance a great many of the patrons retired to the grill room, where delightful refreshments were served. CRE8CENT THEATRE. The acts that stood out at the Crescent Theatre the first half of the week were Crumbley and Davis and Pugh and Lillard. Both acts have been seen before at the Crescent, but in a different dress. Crumbley and Davis are again together for the seventh time and while much of their talk is the three they appear in the pulpit. Crumbley appears in the role of a Pulman porter and Davis as a red cup. The act runs along very smoothly and scores. Pugh and Lillard are now doing a turn minus their female partners and the Texas Tommy dance. However, the act has not been lessened in effectiveness because of the reduction. With less talk and one more song Pugh and Lillard should have nothing to fear relative to getting time. The song review inaugurated at the Crescent, which is time taken up in boosting songs for music publishers, is acceptable when the demonstrator can sing. Sam B. Hyams, who is now assistant manager, announces the following bill for the second half of the week. Then Ten Alabama Hottentots, Blanche Dees, the Chicago Trio and Golden's Song Review. Howard. 20: Shaw. 0. Howard University defeated Shaw University at Raleigh, N. C., Friday, November 15, in a spirited and well-contested game. Though the score was 30 to 10 in favor of the Washington boys, the battle was more fierce and more tribally contested than in the decider. Howard scored twice in the first half, putting the first ball behind the goal within five minutes after play, and the second toward the close of the half. Nixon carried over the first touchdown, while the second was made by a forward pass to Brace to Schlaughter, from the ten-yard line. Both scores were well within the required frequency on Shaw's part. Howard too fumbled, but each time a Howard man recovered the ball. Both teams were frequently penalized. In the second half, Shaw showed more dash, and for the first ten minutes after play, it seemed as if she would redeem herself. However, this was not the kind of blundering series of line plunges by Gray, Merchant and Nixon, and long runs by Gilmore and Brice, Gray finally carried the ball over for the third and last touchdown of the game. For Howard, Gray, who is undoubtedly the best half-back in the game to-day, was the outstanding star, though, with the assistance of Milmore and Brice, together with Gilmore and Schlaughter, should not be overlooked. For Shaw, the playing of center King demands special mention. He had the midfortune to break his finger in the first quarter, but pluckly continued to the end of the game, constantly break through the defense, and tackling his man behind the line. In the backfield, Hobson and Felder were the only men who could gain for Shaw. Both responded with from five to twelve yards, time and again through Howard's line. Quarterback Hortonting, and ends Jones and Hargrave, specialized. Howard put up some of the best interference for her almost instinctive backs that has ever been seen at the Tartuffe capital.

Fisk, 7; Tuskegee, 6 The first important football game of the season was played at Tuskegee, Saturday, between Fisk and Tuskegee. It was very exciting and hard fought. The Fisk team won by a score of 7 to 6. Booster T. Washington, Jr., who is a senior at Fisk, is the captain of the Fisk team, and this added a great deal of interest to the game. An interesting feature of the game consisted of the fact that a number of students from the game Agricultural and Mechanical College were placed at Alabama, were present. They seemed to enter just as heartily into the excitement and enthusiasm of the game as the colored spectators. Hampton Defsets Lincoln Hampton defeated Lincoln, 10 to 6 in a snappily fought football game, which was played Saturday, November 16, on the Normal School gridiron amid enthusiastic cheering by a large crowd of visitors and students. George C. Jones made a brilliant touchdown for Hampton. In the first quarter on Bender's kick, the team succeeded in kicking the goal. Fred Bender kicked a field goal from the thirty-yard line in the second quarter, giving Hampton a score of 10 to Lincoln's 0. Hampton's defensive work was weakened by the inability of Bender to com-up to his usual form at punting because of an injury to his foot, received in the recent Howard-Hampton game. Two Lincoln players, Henry Collins, captain and Klay Kling, and Hampton players James E. Scott and Clinton E. Warner, captain, were members of the colored All-Star Football Team, 1911.

The athletic classic of the year takes place Thanksgiving Day on Howard Campus when Howard and Lincoln meet to decide the football championship of Negro colleges. Each team has downed its most feared rivals and the game next week is certain to be stoutly fought. All who are fortunate to witness the Thanksgiving game will enjoy a contest worth seeking. Excursion parties to Washington are being arranged for the game from New York, Philadelphia, Boston, Baltimore, Richmond and other cities. Drew Breaks Another Record. Howard P. Drew, the Negro runner from Springfield, Mass., is at his old tricks of setting new records in sprinting, his last performance in this time being Saturday night at the Twenty-team meet when he started from scratch and led his field home in 10 1-5s, a new armory record, one-fifth of a second better than any previous record. One of the timers caught Drew in ten seconds flat. The second man was allowed two and a half seconds by four yards. Some of the local champions who had entered declined to contest the issue with Drew. Official Handbook Out. Spalding's official handbook of the Interscholastic Athletic Association of the Middle Atlantic States, for 1912, edited by Edwin B. Henderson and Garnet C. Wilkerson, has just been issued. It is a book of 174 pages and is profusely illustrated. All the colored schools and colleges of the Middle Atlantic States are given mention, as are amateur athletic organizations and many patrons of athletics. The book is neatly gotten up, is quite attractive in its typographical make-up, and furnishes much interesting information Alphas Defeat Acme-Arrows. At the first affair of the season given by the Ace-Arrows, formerly the All-Stars, on Friday night, November 15, they were overwhelmed by the Alphas and Smart Set Jumbers defeated the Sidem Presents Seniors by a score of 19 to 5.
