VOL. XXVI. No. 15. ASSERTS TANEY WAS MISQUOTED Mayor Wm. J. Gaynor Writes About Famous Dred Scott Decision Did Not Say 'Negroes Were so Inferior They Had No Rights Whites were Bound to Respect' POLITICAL ORATORS BLAMED Mayor Gaynor Charges that Speeches Were Made During Fremont Campaign Which Did Taney an Injustice. Mayor William J. Gaynor of New York, who has achieved some distinction as a historian, maintains that Chief Justice Taney of the United States Supreme Court never declared in his opinion in the famous Dred Scott decision that "Negroes were so far inferior that they had no rights which the white man was bound to respect." In a letter to the Rev. Dr. Robert W. McLaughlin, pastor of the Park Slope Congregational Church, Brooklyn, Mayor Gaynor gives a friendly criticism of Dr. McLaughlin's recent book, "Washington and Lincoln." Among the subjects discussed is the Dred Scott decision, Mayor Gaynor asserting that Chief Justice Taney was misquoted. Commenting on the subject, Mayor Gaynor writes: May I call your attention to an error in your book. You say that Chief Justice Taney said in his opinion in the Dred Scot case that "Negroes were so far inferior that they had no rights which the white man was bound to respect." This is an old error. It has been repeated so often, and in such trustworthy places, that it is not extraordinary that you give credence to it. It was repeated by the political orators all over the country in the Fremont campaign, and again in the first Lincoln campaign, and thousands of times has it been written in newspapers and books. And yet there is not a word of truth in it. Chief Justice Taney never said it, or anything like it. In his decision he speaks of the Negro race as "that unfortunate race" and gives a history of their condition during the century preceding the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution of the United States. And the words you owe them in, I may give the whole passage: It is difficult of this day to realize the state of path opinion in relation to that unfortunate race, which prevailed in the civilized world at the time of the nation of Independence and when the Constitution of the United States was trained and adopted. But the public history of every European nation displays it in a manner too plain to be mistaken. They had no doubt that the Negrito might be regarded as beings of an inferior order, and altogether unit to associate with the white race, either in social or political relations; and so far inferior that they had no rights which the white man was born to possess. The Negrito might hardly and lawfully be reduced to slavery for his benefit. He was bought and sold, and treated as an ordinary article of merchandise and traffic, whenever a profit could be made by it. And he adds: And in no nation was this opinion more publicly acted upon than by the English Government and English people. They not only seized them on the coast of Africa and sold them or held them in slavery for their own use; but they took them as ordinary articles of merchandise to every country where they could make money. They were far more extensively engaged in this commerce than any other nation in the world. Instead of speaking of the Negro race having no rights which the white man was bound to respect, he spoke of it inarity and complication, clearly revealing that he was of no such opinion. And, indeed, at the time of the breed bott decision, namely, in 1856, the Mercer had equal rights with the whites most of the States of the Union, and the rights of person and property were secured to them also in the slave States. At the beginning we had slavers in States here in the North. But one slave after another freed its slaves by baking a statute for that purpose, every man to have done it because he was economically unprofitable the North. And in a number of States, as in New York and Pennsylvania, the tak- est of these statutes was set one should to enable slave own- ing their slaves South and them force the statute became NAPIERS ENTERTAIN Recognition Hold at "Hillside Cottage" and Well Known Washingtonians.

ABRAHAM LINCOLN Settlement School in W. 60th Street Attended by Both Races HAS MANY FEATURES Four Hundred and Twenty Children Enrolled—Institution Has White and Color- ed Teachers. It is an interesting experience to spend an hour or two visiting at 205 West 60th street, where is located the Stillman House, a settlement school where children are prepared for the tasks of life, mental and physical. The institution was established in 1907 by Miss Lillian Wald of the Henry Street Settlement, 265 Henry street, and is fostered and supported by Mrs. Edward Harkness and Miss Stillman, a sister, a memorial to their father and mother. The work in this school is under the directorship of Miss Ida Morgan, a graduate of Brown University, who formerly was engaged in school work at the Haines Institute, Augusta, Ga. She is supported by a staff of sixteen, some of whom are volunteer workers and others are paid salaries by the ladies who support the work. There is a lamentable lack of room in which to carry on the various activities engaged in at the Stillman House, but the very best use is made of the apartment which is occupied. There are four rooms, all on the ground floor, and each room has its dual use. The front room, which is the largest, is used as an assembly room gymnasium and case rooms, a person's reach is enabled by a flight of three steps is utilized as a room for a sitting room and for the next room for a standing room. children are curled and their heads are held up in the air. They are surrounded by a white child who is united with the child in the middle of the room. The child is German and that child is represented with the child in the middle of the room. But large numbers are Negro children. There are both colored and white teachers in the school and the devoted women who are giving the best of their lives to further this kind work with no difference in the children under their care, whether their skin be black or white. Age Representative Visits Classes. While THE ACE representative was present classes in city history, rafaa work and cooking were being instructed, and at the same time a class of small girls who will take part in the play, "Ruth," seen to be inspired by the mysteries of one initiated into the mysteries of one of the intricate dances of the play by their instructor. The cooking class is instructed by Miss Lombard, who spent four years in the Union Familie Sethment House, Paris, France, where she took a complete course in cooking, and from which institution she is an honor graduate. Miss Lombard is also instructor of cooking at the night school conducted at public school No. 67, of which Prew Wm. I. Bulley is principal, and has been teaching in New York eight years. At the Stillman House Miss Lombard has twelve girls in her class, each one of whom is required to pay two cents a lesson. This does not meet the actual cost of materials used, but serves to make the girls feel that they are not victims of claustry. The class was cooking apple pie and custard since, and enough apples were left from the pie to turnover. They enjoy a feast when the cooking lesson is over. Miss Miller, has charge of the raffia class, and they were making hats with deftness and skill.

W. Stewart of the C. M. E. Church, Suspended for Misappropriating Funds, Chichester He was Not Short of Church's Money. Special to THE NEW YORK ARCHIVE BIRMINGHAM, ALA. Jan. 7.—Bishop G. W. Stewart, who was found guilty of misappropriating church funds by a trial committee of the C. M. E. Church, and who over by Bishop M. F. Jamison, and who was found from active duties until given a trial by the General Conference, has made an appeal to the Bench of Bishops for a new trial. Bishop Stewart, who presided over the Seventh Episcopal District and acted as treasurer of Miles Memorial College, located at Birmingham; was charged, with having misappropriated school funds for the years 1910, 1911 and 1912. The letter was signed by W. J. Turner, L. D. Fletcher and J. H. Howard. In accordance with Methodist usage, Bishop M. E. Jamison presided over the investigation, upon which case as a trial committee, the following elders, J. H. Turner, L. D. Fletcher and J. H. Howard; F. W. Jamison, Alabama Conference; H. C. Frederick, Alabama Conference; R. L. Langford, Alabama; J. B. Battles, North Alabama; F. R. Fullwood, North Alabama; J. T. Speed, Louisiana; L. B. Martin, Louisiana; M. Lewis, Texas; M. F. McPherson, West Texas, and G. M. Whitmore, East Texas. Two days were spent checking up accounts, receipts, checks, taking testimony, after which the case was given to the committee for verdict. It was claimed by these figures that $54,000 had passed through the hands of Bishop Stewart within the three years, or the two conference years mentioned, and that he was found to have been $10,0818 short. This the committee might in as a verdict. Bishop Stewart declares that in charging him with having received upwards of $4,000 for the conference years of 1910-1911 and 1911-1912, the charges included all the money he had received the annual conferences for all purposes, even personal donations made to him. He remarks that there is no reason for the reason that $6,0818 dollars they charged against him has passed through his hands, and that they have included in the alleged charge his two years' salary, amounting to $4,000, and the personal donations which he had a right to send. WOULD REVOKE TOWN'S CHARTER Special to The New York Ack. Gov. Teresa Asks Pennsylvania Legislature for Power to End Coatesville Charter—Community Disgraced by the Burning of Zack Walker. Houston, PA, Jan. 8—Gov. Teresa of Pennsylvania, in his annual message to the Legislature, makes the recommendation that the charter of the Borough of Coatesville, Chester county, beoked by the Legislature because of the restrictive tactics the citizens of Chester county to when efforts were made to move goy-goy of burning at the stake Zack Walker. The colored man was burned to death because he had been charged with killing a police officer. "I believe that this authority of the Legislature (the power to revoke a municipal charter) should be masked with respect to the borough of Coatesville" reads Gov. Teresa's message, and that her charter be taken away. Governmental functions, were given her as a son of the State, but she has beetrailed the trust repressed in her. What their officers, or her citizens done their duty the Commonwealth would not have been disgraced and her fair name dishonored. People of this horrific, fomenting murder and conspiracy with murderers, have not only violated the laws and obstructed the administration of justice, but in my opinion have forfeited the high priority of further acting as a Governmental agency of the State. I therefore recommend the enactment of appropriate legislation providing for the dissolution of boroughs, to the end that State agencies like the borough of Conneville, which set the laws at defense and outrage the peace and dignity of the Commonwealth, may be obliterated from among her orderly municipalities." NATION CELEBRATES 50TH ANNIVERSARY OF THE EMANCIPATION PROCLAMATION Appropriate Exercises Held in Various Cities Throughout the Country--Both Races Join in Making the Event an Impressive One Negro Citizens of New York Hold Celebration at Young's Casino. Thursday. Evening—Booker T. Washington and Mrs. Henry Villard, Daughter of William Lloyd Garrison, Praise Lincoln From Same Pulpit. Throughout the United States, exercises commemorating the fiftieth anniversary of the issuance of the Emancipation Proclamation by President Lincoln were fittingly observed by colored and white citizens, commencing December 31, and ending January 5. The majority of anniversary exercises were held on January 1, while a goodly number took place last Sunday in the churches of different denominations. In many of the cities the Negro citizens participated in parades. At Newport, R. I., the white members of the G. A. R. attended emancipation services in a body. In New York City the two principal demonstrations were held at Young's Casino and the Church of the Messiah. The exercises at Young's Casino were given under the auspices of Negro citizens last Thursday evening, and was largely attended. Dr. E. P. Roberts presided. The services at the Church of Messiah were conducted Sunday evening in conjunction with the Church of Divine Paternity and the Free-Synagogue. Dr. Booker T. Washington and Mrs. Henry Villard, daughter of William Lloyd Garrison, were the principal speakers. The Emancipation Proclamation exercises at Young's Casino were opened with prayer by the Rev. Dr. Ackworth. The music for the evening was furnished by the Abyssinian Military Band. The Emancipation Proclamation was read by Prof. William L. Bulley, who also read an inspiring poem by the Hon. James W. Johnson. Mrs. M. C. Lawton represented the women and told of their progress and development during the past fifty years, beginning with the fireside and closing with their work through organized agencies, locally and nationally, paying a high tribute to their efforts in behalf of neglected womanhood. Counsellor James L. Curtis was orator of the occasion. He delivered a forceful oration, reviewing minutely the progress of the race from the abolition of slavery down to the present. Fred R. Moore gave a practical talk along racial lines and pointed out how the race could further develop by cooperation and unity of purpose. James H. Anderson spoke, complimentary of the celebration and encurial remarks of the progress of the race. At the close of the program Dr. W. H. Brisby presented an oration on land given Huntington West Vale to a dignified position pleased. After meeting the opinion of the women and told of the sum of $14,000 was provided for the community to the measure of neglected womanhood. Abraham Lincoln Praised. With some service Sunday, attending in the Corner of the Messiah Mrs. Vilhall said that before the meeting Dr. Washington had said that her father must have been a very strong man. She said that she wanted to dislodge the police of that that My father used strong language, perhaps, she said, "because the occasions were such as demanded it. But he was bawdy, cheerful, gentle, mischievous and ready to do anything for anybody, recounts of credit or color." Mrs. Vilhall landed Lanshon, but said that he learned his duty only gradually, in that his emancipation of the slave was at first only provisional and that his proclamation did not at first apply to some of the border States. Her father, she said, would be remembered principally in the years to come, not so much for the causes in which he raised his voice combatting great wrongs, but because the manner in which he faced issues. "Today I appeal to you through the voice of my father, she said, "for an other cause of abolition greater, than the abolition of slavery, greater than any other cause that I know—it is the abolition of war. How shall that be brought about? Simply by using plain language." Dr. Washington said the occasion was unique in his life and too enjoyable for him to express his appreciation. He referred to William Lloyd Garrison as the man who gave all others who had done the most for the Negro race. He asked it did not indicate that his race had progressed when it had become possible for him to speak from the same platform with the daughter of this greatman. Dr. Washington reviewed the adventures of the Negro race to demonstrate that population of living and thriving under free government. He said that they have under cultivation 20,000,000 acres of land, an area as large as the combined kingdoms of Holland and Belgium; that they own property taxed at $000,000,000; that they own 10,000 stores, and 57 banks in the South and that they have built wif in the 50 years. of their emancipation 35,000 churches and maintain 34,000 ministers and Sunday schools. "But all has not been accomplished," he said. "So long as a prominent official of a State can advocate in the public press the abuse of a race of people, and so long as lynchings and burnings are prevalent and, the same law does not apply to all peoples there remains something to be done. would not change my color for any purpose in the race which has a big problem to solve and which has a battle before it. That is the sort of man I believe William Lloyd Garrison to have been and I believe that wherever he may be he is now solving some problem, fighting some battle."

Jan 7 Fifty years of Negro progress since the Emancipation Proclamation were appropriately reviewed and celebrated at Hampton Institute on New Year's Day by nearly one thousand colored citizens of the neighboring communities, who assembled with the great Hampton student body Dr Lewis B. Moore, dean of the Teachers' College of Howard University, Washington, D.C., outlined in some detail the important factors in the Negro's marked success during the past fifty years work, faith, honesty, patriotism, education, optimism and opportunity. Dr Moore declared that America in spite of any of its shortcomings, is the best country on the face of the earth to all classes and for all races. He admitted, that a land bounding in great opportunities has its serious problems to solve - temperance, divorce, immigration, sanitation, education and the for Moore said that commissioners and elected a new and difficult problem into American life and had brought the South a problem for which men of a former generation were not responsible. He showed that when men failed to solve the Negro problem by harsh methods, then came Christianity and education to help the Negro assimilate the American civilization, of which emancipation made him a most vital part.

Twenty years ago, when he was Postmaster-General in the Cabinet of President Benjamin Harrison, Mr. John Wainamaker, the great New York and Philadelphia drygoods merchant and philanthropist, advocated the establishment of the parcel post delivery in connection with the postal service, and the innovation was much discussed at the time, but nothing came of it, the times not being ripe for it. Ideas are mysterious things. Sometimes, if they fall upon barren times, they remain dormant until sufficient public opinion has grown up about them, when they blossom into full flower. Many people of the impatient, impulse disposition, and with no adequate conception of the intrinsic value of ideas, despair of any they may have it, they do not bring forth results between ears and throw them away, and, like the Greeks in their decay, waste their lives seeking for some new thing without being able to profit much by the old things. But there are always shrewd people who grab the discarded ideas of others and make the most of them, sometimes a very long time after they have been discarded. On New Year's eve night Mr. Wana-maker shipped the first parcel package from the Philadelphia post office, and the people in the streets and the newspapers in the high towers made a great noise over the shipment and the shipper. The shipment consisted of a case of fifty silver spoons from Mr. Wana-maker the President Taft. President Taft's administration will be notable, if for nothing else, because of the adoption of the post bank and parcel post system in the last year of it. It is the general hope and expectation that both additions to the postal service will be helpful to business men and the general public. Mr. John Wanamaker has been a good and useful citizen, and, like Mr. Robert O'Graden of this partnership, has taken a generous and helpful interest in the educational and material welfare of the large people, not only of New York and Philadelphia, but of the nation. The country is under obligation to both of them for their display of public spirit and philanthropy. HOUNDING THE NEGRO IN THE NORTH. It has become so in the Northern States, as it has long been in the Southern States, that no horrible crime against the person and life of a white person, especially a white woman, can be committed that the newspapers and the police do not immediately connect a Negro with the outrage and refuse to be convinced until they have worked the clue to a frazzle. The damage done to the name and reputation of the Negro people by the hue and cry after them in any place where such crime has been committed last hour after the crime has been avenged by the law or the mob and follows decent Negroes like a great of death in all public places, as the police and public opinion and in their daily employments and efforts to get honest work, and such efforts are hard and discouraging enough under the best and most normal conditions. Even in New York City, when a great crime has been committed, the Negro is first suspected as an individual and placed under suspicion as a race by the police, the public and the newspapers. If the individual Negro proves to be the real offender they promptly discredit the whole race. It has come to be a deadly enemy, vicious, impossible for the Negro to protect himself against, because it reduces if it does not destroy his opportunity to earn an honor. the States General of France and the Continental Congress of the United States for the triumph of the principles that taxation without representation and government without the consent of the governed are monstrosities, because, says our Declaration of Independence, "we hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal; that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights; that among these, are life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness." It took many centuries of controversy and bloodshed to vitalize these principles in the Governments of Great Britain, of France and of the United States, as we have them to-day, but the influence of them has revolutionized government and the position of the individual in the Government in every European and American State and made slavery and the slave traffic infamous on the face of all of the earth. The black races have received greater benefit from the world-movement for larger freedom for the individual man than the white races, in the past four centuries, and the movement is still growing in its sweep for the regeneration and uplift of the white and dark races of the earth. A great many persons in the United States would have us believe and are loud in proclaiming the falsehood, that lasting social and industrial uplift can be achieved and fully enjoyed without full political equality and protection of citizenship. President-elect Woodrow Wilson is not one of those persons. On his birthday, December 28, at Staunton, Va., where he was born, speaking upon this same subject, he said: "I could pick out some gentlemen not confined, to one State, gentlemen likely to be associated with the government of the United States, who have not yet had down upon their intelligence what it is that government is set up to do. These men will have to be mastered in order that they shall be made the instruments of justice and of mercy." These are the words of a wise and courageous man. If this be not a warning to the radical Democrats in the Congress who have made a business of stirring up race strife and of using the power of government to deny "justice and mercy" to the weak member in his citizenship and "the hireling in his wage," what does it mean? We have not had such doctrine from the lips of a President since the persuasive eloquence of President Lincoln was silenced by the assassin bullet of John Wilkes Booth. But what are the new purposes of Government indicated by President-elect Wilson? In the same address at Staunton, in which possible members of the Cabinet and other Departments of his Administration were told that they "will have to be mastered, in order that they shall be made the instruments of justice and mercy," he said: The nineteenth century, with all its associations of the getting up of a free government in America, looked forward to an age in which humanity, the rank and title of men, should be served, and honestly served, by the institutions of government. But we had set up this happy experiment in a country so abundantly furnished with wealth, so extraordinarily provided with opportunity for all sorts and conditions of men, that suddenly we got drunk with the mere wine of prosperity, and for a little while forgot that our mission was not to pile up great wealth, but to serve mankind in humility and justice. But through this long century, during which it has seemed from time to time as if we were forgetting what America was set up to do, the world has slowly come about to the point of view that the time men who set the Government of the United States up had in the beginning. We are now aware that we are, not going to be served by institutions, that mere finely conceived constitutions do not constitute the body of liberty; that the body of liberty can be had only by the use of institutions to serve the permanent needs of the rank and title of men. So that we are learning again that the service of humanity is the business of mankind, and that the business of mankind must be set forward by the government which mankind sets up, in order that justice may be done and mercy not forgotten. All the world, I say is turning now as never before to this conception of the elevation of humanity, of men and women. I mean of the preferred few, not of those who can by superior wits or unusual opportunity struggle to the top no matter whom they trample under foot, but the rights of men who cannot struggle to the top and who must therefore be looked to by the force of society, for they have no single force by which they can serve themselves. There must be a head in government. There must be a heart in the policies of government. And men must look to it that they do unto others as they would have others do unto them. This used to be and has long been the theme for the discourse of Christian ministers, but it has now come to be part of the bounden duties of ministers of State. This is the solemnity that comes upon a man when he knows that he is about to be clothed with the responsibilities of a great office in which will centre part of the example which America shall set to the world itself. Do you suppose that gives a man a very light heart at Christmas? These be new purposes of Government indeed,—"that the service of humanity is the business of mankind," "that the business of mankind must be set forward by the government which mankind sets up, in order that justice may be done and mercy not forgotten," and that "men must look to it that they do unto others as they would have others do unto them." That we are to have the Christian philosophy carried into the White House and the conduct of the Government is evidenced by the President-elect's further statement that "this used to be and long has been the theme for the discourse of Christian ministers, but it has now come to be part of the bounden duties of ministers of State." Says the poet: "Yes, from the ashes of our Hope We often gain a strength unknown, Vad, even in disappointment, grope With surer tread our pathway long."

And they can well recall to their remembrance the following words of Gov. Wilson, in the letter to Bishop Walters, dated October 16, and published in The Age of October 24. I hope that it serves superstitions to those who know me, but to those who do not know me perhaps it is not unnecessary but in order to assure my colored fellow citizens of my earnest wish to see justice done them in every matter, and not mere grudging justice, but justice executed with Liberality and cordial good feeling. Every guarantee of our law, every principle of our Constitution, commands this, and our sympathies should also make it easy. We shall have a new sort of President in the White House, a new sort of force in American politics, on March 4, 1913. It makes many good people afraid to have Negroes about them in any sort of service. A good reputation is the best capital any man, any race, any nation can have, as a bad reputation is the worst. We have a striking case as illustration in the brutal attack that resulted in the death of a young white woman on the outskirts of Trenton, N. J. December 3. She never regained consciousness, but in her delirium she murmured some thing like "a dark man with side whiskers" and the police and newspaper got busy, arresting Negroes right and left and putting them through "the third degree" whatever that may be, with tearing headlines, and kept it up every day until the last week of the month when a young German confessed that word to watch the unfolding of the President Wilson with the charity that the Government of "equal rights for all of the complicated relations and to give him their moral support give up to the very high Christians made for himself. And they can face the following words of Gov.

She never regained consciousness, but in her delirium she murmured something like "a dark man with side whiskers," and the police and newspapers got busy, arresting Negroes right and left and putting them through "the third degree," whatever that may be, with tearing headlines, and kept it up every day until the last week of the month, when a young German confessed that he found it easy, the public and newspapers, while holding him, say of him that he is cray. Perhaps he is. Most people who commit such crimes, like Judas Iscariot, are of two minds, and sure of neitehr, until they are hanged or separated from their fellow citizens by life imprisonment. While the hunt for the criminal was in full cry Negro men of respectable character were afraid to go abroad in Treton or to look at a white woman when they did so, fearful that the argus eyes of the police and the reporters would be upon them. So they were Mercer County was lashed to fury against the Negro because it was suspected that one of them committed the crime and all of them were placed under suspicion, not avowedly but implicitly. It is a fearful thing to indict a whole race, justly or unjustly, and that is what happens when the police, justly or unjustly, look for a criminal or "suspect" in every Negro they meet. No newspaper in the country can have less sympathy with crime and criminals than THE Age, but we should consider ourselves base indeed to indict all the white people of any community—which did not indict themselves as the people of Coatesville and West Chester County. Pa. did—because of the criminal acts of one or twelve of their number. SENATOR IEFF DAVIS. We are unable to sympathize with the people of Arkansas because of the death of Hon. Jeff Davis, one of their two senators in the Federal Congress. We are more disposed to congratulate them than to sympathize with them. He was never a credit to them and was for the most part a discredit to himself and the many high positions he held during his career as a political stormy petrel. Mr. Davis entered the Federal Senate in 1907. As Governor of Arkansas he was noted for his extreme views and utterances about the Negro and the Negro problem. He entered the senate five years ago with a confusion of brass band sounds proclaiming what he would do to the Negro, the money power and such, but he did nothing but make a laughter show of himself from the time he entered until the time when "he went out to sea" with all the winds howling at a strand of "moaning at the bar." His first speech in 1907 was a dismal stink and his last a sickening wait. Senator Davis had a diseased soul at war with his diseased life. He wanted all his public career to do great things on a small way, but was prevented on the right hand from doing what he desired on the left hand. In short, he was locked-handed. Most of the Southern men in Congress are similarly locked-handed on the Negro question and when they get so on that they become so on most other questions. They inherited the curse from slavery and the slave conditions they have made for themselves and the Negro since the war. Senator Davis could have died a very long time before he did with advantage to himself and the rest of mankind, but he was too cowardly to do it. He was not as honest and had not the courage of Judas Iscariot. There are many men just like him still living the life of human jackals. THE HOOKWORM AND NIR- VANA. Where did the deadly hookworm come from? Its presence in the Southern States is being fought by many scientists under a fund set aside by Mr. Rockefeller. Mr. Walter H. Page says in the World's Work that the hookworm helped make the Egyptian Pharashi's life miserable some 3,460 years ago. Mr. Page says further: "Whether or not malaria was one of the chief causes of the downfall of France and England has played a part in Asiatic history. The anemic condition of millions of people, century after century, has profoundly affected their economic life, their health and their civilization and their religion, of that there can be no doubt. The relation between the hookworm and the doctrine or Nyatana is too probable to be regarded as fanful. The regenerative effect of hookworm tradition upon the Southern schools, how whitmanical fate is, that we should be nightly helped to the right kind of country schools in the United States by an irresistible parasite that poisoned the churches." Mr. Page's inference is that when the hookworm, like Nirvana, gets into the human system, the soul is, in the long run, forced out. Perhaps the hookworm and Nirvana are survivals of the Lancer or Neil, or Darkness, which was probably swallowed up in the sea where the Desert of Saraha now is. Modern science is likely to succeed where ancient science failed in stamping out the disease which has already raced and nailed the past and is still catching at the vantage of mankind. ANOTHER A. M. E. COLLEGE. We give attention to the news that another college under the name of Lampton College has been opened by the A. M. E. Church in Louisiana. We question whether or not the promoters of this college would not serve their church and the race better by trying to strengthen some of the existing colleges rather than by starting more weak ones. We fear that the A. M. E. Church, like some other churches, is making the mistake of trying to spread itself out too thinly where education is concerned. We question whether Wilberforce University is as strong as it was most of the church. The fact is, no one can examine conditions at Wilberforce without being convinced that it is no longer a church institution. It has become in recent years practically a State normal school supported by an appropriation from the State of Ohio. The same thing is true practically of Western University at Kansas City, Kan. There ought to be a reorganization and a bigger shaking up of the educational system of the A. M. E. Church. BACK TO THE SIMPLE LIFE. Back to "the simple life," as Pastor Wagner teaches in his little book, back to democratic simplicity, as Benjamin Franklin practiced it at the courts of Great Britain and France and Thomas Jefferson practiced it at Monticello and Washington, and as Abraham Lincoln lived and died it because he was Simplicity's self-back to simplicity seems to be the new and better sign of the times, as set by those who have reached "the high places" or are reaching after them. Let us look at it. Gen. Rosalie Jones led her dauntless army of six females from New York to Albany afloat, through snow and rain and slush, instead of taking a chair car, spending fifteen days of agony on the hike, in order to present a Suffragett petition to Gov. Sulzer; Gov. Sulzer walked to the Capitol from the Executive Mansion to be inaugurated, January 1, instead of taking the automobile provided by the great State of New York for that purpose, and President-elect Wilson is insisting that there be as little display as possible on Inauguration Day, March 4. Vulgar display in American life is dead! Long live Simplicity! EDITORIAL NOTE& Prof. Merkrum of the University of Chicago, says, "we could almost afford to pension our grafters if they would leave us alone to work out our plans of social and industrial improvement"—meaning political, police and church grafters. But the grafters in little and big business should not be overlooked. It is estimated that the average American consumes $2 pounds of sugar per annum. That is much sweets, which, we suppose, does not include candy, tons of which are consumed. Sweets are a deadly poison, slow poison, and how many lives they consume every year it has not been attempted to ascertain, we believe. Sugar is a luxury and not a necessary food product. The Age has frequently directed attention to the popular names of Norwegians, the significance that attached to such names, and the mystery of where they got them who glory in them. In the latest issue of "The Tuskegee Student" we find the following peculiar names: Narcissus Lamar, Lucia Cleveland Hanna, Birdia Pearl Thompson, Angelica Swain, Homer Corker, Tola Wimbs and Olegra Boyd. These be new names and negotiation of names, and rightfully belong to their proud, young owners by inheritance or adoption. May they make the most of them. The women of Philadelphia combined to force a reduction in the price of eggs and fetched it down to 24 cents per dozen. They established some 42 places in various parts of the city. Now certain New York women have combined to force down the price of fancy apples, wrapped in tissue paper, from five to one cent an apple. The apple is a great fruit, like the egg, and should be in easy reach of the humbleest as of the loftiest appetite. The women in such movements are worthy of the good womanhood behind them. --- "The old darkey who nursed him," the news dispatches state, was on hand when President-elect Wilson reached Staunton, Va., last week, and was given a cordial reception; indeed, it is said he stood up with Mr. Wilson in the receiving line. We hope so. It will have been honorable to him and to the President-elect. His name is Ware, and he is a prosperous and respected citizen of Staunton. Why can't the young whites of the daily newspapers substitute some less offensive title for him than "the old darkey." Do you believe in Astrology? If so why so? Any how, the New York Sunday American has taken the trouble to publish a full page forecast of "What's Toiling to Happen in 1913," with a horoscope diagram of real horrors, by the leading astrologers of Paris and England done as when the sun stood still to full of cadmity among things says he, "there will be a race war in Alabama and other parts of the United States." We are sorry to have the prediction and hope that a containment of the planets not in the horoscope will frustrate it. Such things have been done as when the sun stood still in Globe, and the moon in Vienna and the destruction of Nineveh was averted after Joshua had demolished it, because the public repented them of their evil ways.

There Ethiopia country, ancient lies. Rise priests' and warriors' clam dwell, Here first, the stare spoken in the creme, Here hardened but impatient well. Here burning's fountain had its source. Place 'mongt' world-nations oft-times change; The first now last, last first may be; Fell with reverse, ranks disarrange, Man's rise and fall makes history. Entrapped, overpowered, deceived, cailed, Ham's sons borne far from kin, forborn, Midst horror dread in slaves' hold, Survived through off-ring, cursed unborn. Scattered over allen lands afar, institute grief, and rumor bare, Gallant black men coachelessly waged war, Wars of the warriors did spare, Columbus soil then holding gas. Ere Pilgrim came who freedom sought, No rickered she of the evils grave. That in its train such landings brought. Like ball of fire's tormenting storm, The wrongs imposed past credence—done. To those the same in heart and form, Where power and will were joined in one Still hope in heart, repose calm old, Still hope in heart, repose calm old, Though groan's dispassion, thundersed thoughts, Thoughts of full freedom, still endured. Not vision, tongue like, had he, Who bangle, bird and real, had borne, Yet merely grew in misery, And kept his heart, oft bruised and torn, A graduate from that school, he was, Whose degrees showed in body marred, Billed to hornous nails, his hair, Its influence spreading, ever vast, Stifled the voice of conscience dire, Till humane woman's inspired pen, Recalled through words like living fire, The wrongs that bondage did to men. Woe upon woe tilted all the land, When compromise had reached an end; In desert simon's stifling sand, Panders' life breath struggling spend; Panders' box no nills on enclosed More than the entire land overspread.

When fate made lots almost as one, Pass kindness and pity's deed. Alone were thought on muller none. Gloriously, those welcomed death; Who chose, when once was given the chance, To spend, for freedom, their last breath; Resolute and strong did they advance On fields, death swept, by ordnance raked, Haptized as men with blood and fire, Rhymes contempt, shackles, off were shaken, Won claim to all that men require. At Slavery's root, are Lincoln laid His room is lasting good to soul, Patriotism and pride bound, And steps once taken never did violet. The Rights of Man stanch friend him found, And God's own image, then bound, Was regretted in slave and bound, And Time, such action, never has rest. Then gladness reigned without allow, Must these set free from British moll, Some free from restraints of their joy, Embraced the beasts partners in toil. FIFTY YEARS AGO (From the New York Times) O brothers mine, to day we stand Where half a century sweeps our ken. Since God, through Lincoln's ready hand, Struck off our bonds and made us men Just fifty years a Winter's day As runs the history of a race. Yet, as we now look over the way, How distant we seem our starting place Far, from the way that we have tried, From heathen kraals and jungle dons To freedmen, freemen, sons of God Americans and Citizens. A part of His unknown design. We've lived within a mighty age. And we have helped to write a line On history's most wondrous page. A few black bondmen strown along The borders of our eastern coast. Now grown a race, ten millions strong. An upward, onward, marching host. Then let us here erect a stone. To mark the place, to mark the time A witness to God's mission shown. A pledge to hold this day sublime. And let that stone an altar be Whereon thanksgiving we may lay Where we, in deep humility. For faith and strength renewed may pray. With open hearts ask from above New real, new courage, and new power! That we may grow more worthy of This country and this land of ours. For never let the thought arise. That we are here on sufferance here (outwardly) beneath these skies, and aliens without part or share. This land is our right of birth. This land is our right of toll. We help the virgin earth our sweet is in its fruitful soil. Where once we tanned forest stood. Where flourished other land wank on them. Boldly the path traced, peaceful wood The rattle white, the yellow corn To gain those fruits that have been in armed To hold those holds that have won the arms have strained, our backs have burned Hunt here beneath a rubbish car.

Yet unlike Sphinx on Africa's sands, Show clear, right triumphs oer wrong. Through pain and tears and blood this land, With others, we have helped secure; Will barriers 'gainst us ever stand? Will naught full rights black men assure? When lost has been the rave's drows, And value proved by general plan; What shall be done with the cost, What be our rating here as man? From Higab's mountain top we see, Through clearing haze in distant view, A land of promise, hope, that we will attain to, Travelled has been the wilderness, Withdrawn will be the deathly scourge, No more will haws unjust oppress, Peasons of joy will drown the dirge. Protect, guide, aid, uphold us now. Kindred, through. Thus, to all mankind, In this a brother's part to find. Help us a brother's part to find. Color does not make nor blot. Help us to scorn our baser self. Help us life's lessons full to know. May sense and worth near rank 'death self. In grace and spirit may we grow. May native virtues, rooted deep.

Whereer the starry day may be, May no longer be denied, Through whole or entire or spite; The blessings for which heroes died. Among whom found are black and white. ALIERT W. SCOTT. That Banner, which is now the type of victory on field and flood- Remember, its first crimson stripe Was dyd by Attucks' willing blood. And never yet has come the cry- When that fair flag has been assailed- For men to do, for men to die. That ye have faltered or have failed. We've helped to hear it, root and torn. Through many a hot breath'd battle breeze: Held in our hands, it has been borne And planted far across the seas. And, never yet, O haunty Land Let us at least, for this be praised- Has one black, treason-guided hand Ever against that flag, been raised. Then should we speak but servile words, Or shall we hang our heads in shame? Stand back of new-come foreign worden. And fear our heritage to claim? No! Stand erect and without fear. And for our foe let this suffer- We've bought a rightful, sonship here. And we have more than paid the price. And yet, my brothers, well I know The tethered foot, the pinioned wing, The spirit bowed beneath the blow; The heart grown faint from wounds and sings; The staggering force of brutish might, That strikes and leaves us stunned and died. The long, rain waiting through the night To hear some voice; for justice raised. Full well I know the hour when hope Nukks dead, and round us everywhere Hangs stilling darkness, and we grope With hands uplifted in despair. Courage! Look out, beyond, and see The fa horton's beckoning span: Faith in your Godknown destiny! We are a part of of some great plan. Because the tongues of Garrison And plains now are cold in death. Think you their work will be undone? Or quenched the fire lit by their breath? Thank you that John Brown's spirit stops? That you did not slain? Or do you think these previous drops From Lincoln's heart were ahed in vain? That for which millions prayed and sighed. That for which of thousands fought, By which so many trey died.

Alabama Penny Savings Bank Commemorates Emancipation Proclamation by Opening New Building—$15. 000 Deposited January 1. Special to The New York Times BIRMINGHAM, ALA, Jan. 7.—Total deposits in one day aggregating $15,000 out of which were 300 new accounts, was the record-breaking achievement of the Alabama Penny Savings Bank at the formal opening of its new $50,000 steel-constructed six-story building on January 1st. The incident was the principal feature of the celebration commemorating the fifteenth emancipation of the Negro. All day long from 9 o'clock until 6 steady streams of people inspected the beautiful building. Negroes in every walk of life made deposits, and all were given handsome souvenirs. Music and flowers greeted the visitors and polite attendants ushered them from floor to floor. The elevators were crowded all day. It is estimated that fully 10,000 people visited the building. In introducing the speakers Dr. Pettitord took occasion to review briefly the history of the Alabama Penny Savings Bank. "You are also celebrating the accomplishments of Negroes in the financial world," declared for Fletcher. "You have sixy-two banks in the United States, three of them north of Mason and Dixon's line, leaving the great majority of them South, where we are endeavoring to work out our material salvation with honest work and faithful living. These banks represent about four million in stock and over ten million in deposit. "Your own bank in which you are directly interested opened its doors for business October 15, 1890, with a capital stock of $3,000, and on the close of business that day $555.75 had been deposited. In a rented building on Eighteenth street this venture was started, and today it has a volume of business of $49,000 and stockholders representing twenty-four states, the District of Columbia and Cuba; three branches, in Selma, Montgomery and Anniston, the directors of which have holdings of their individual capacity to the amount of $400,000. You are in your own six-story, reinforced building, at a cost of $60,000. Your president and cashier, who led the founding of this institution, have held these positions for twenty-two years." TUSKEGEE INSTITUTE, ALA, Jan. 7. The London Missionary Society of London is arranging for a large demonstration and a great meeting in Royal Albert Hall, London, England, on the evening of March 19, 1913, in celebration of the centenary of David Livingstone's birth. Livingstone, the explorer, opened the heart of Africa to the whole world and gave his life to the cause of Africa. The London meeting is to be a most representative and enthusiastic one and will be made up of the best men and women of London and of England. Dr. James L. Barton, Secretary of the American Board of Commissioners for Foreign Missions, with headquarters in Boston, has reinforced the invitation extended Dr. Booker T. Washington of Tuskegee Institute. Ala., by the London Missionary Society to deliver one of the principal addresses. Dr. Barton feels sure, he states, that the hall "will be packed to the ceiling." Dr. Nelson Bitton, Organizing Secretary of the Livingstone Centenary Celebration London, writes Dr. Washington in the shop of Canterbury will preside at the meeting, which he has been asked to address.

The large yard in the rear of the school building is fitted up with swings and various games, and 174 children were carved the past season, which lasted from July 1 to September 7. A Fresh Air Fund provides means by which the children and their parents who can go are given two weeks in the country during the summer. Last year parties were sent to Montclair, Lake Mahope and Verona. Nineteen adults and forty-six children were given sixteen days at Montclair, sixteen children were given fourteen days at Lake Mahope and four children were given fourteen days at Verona. Boys this one trip were given in the summer. In two trips boys were carried to Berlin. Boys this one trip were carried to Van Cortlandt task force, twenty-nine were carried to two weeks in Delham Bay. One hundred and seventy-tickets were provided for trips to the twenty-two tickets were searched for the floating hospitals and Martins leaes manager of the Lincoln Theatre furnished 42 tickets for the children to attend the matinees at that house. On July 7 last Miss Wald gave a prize at Montclair for sixty-five parents who could not stay away from me over night. In all 2018 adults and children were given a chance to get away from the discomfort of the city during last summer's heated spell. In the Penny Provident Fund, the branch being in charge of Miss Morgan there have been one hundred depositors from among the children, and their deposits in sums of from one cent to ten cents, have amounted to $61288, with net deposits on hand at end of the fiscal year of $223 Mary F. Walton Free Kindergarten. The Mary F. Walton Free Kindergarten for Colored Children was established in 1895 and incorporated in 1904. It is located at 202 West 63d street and is operated under the supervision of the New York Kindergarten Association, with Miss Henrietta W Maesing and Miss Ebel Taggart as teachers. The New York Association provides money for salaries of teachers and for material used in the kindergarten, while the Walton Free Kindergarten Association bears all other expenses, including all forms of relief work. The enrollment in the kindergarten keeps to its limit of fifty-five to sixty, and the daily attendance frequently runs above fifty. Being relieved of the kindergarten study, and the administration has been able to arrange its many time to the development of its work among the larger girls and boys through the various classes. The main feature of the past year's work was the establishment of the Music School Settlement, David Martin, director, which work grew so rapidly that it was necessary to find separate quarters. The main school is operated on West 105th street, but a branch is maintained at the kindergarten building and classes are held every afternoon or evening by Mr. Martin, Mr. Gibson, Miss Smith and Mme. Selika. The three Kindergarten was started in the home of Mrs. Granam, West 40th street, and came to its present location in 1910. The club feature of the work was taken up in 1909 and Miss Helena Lucas Emerson, who had been assistant in the kindergarten, was made headworker. Besides the music classes there are eight clubs covering every phase of the work for the children, and the attendance averages about 400 weekly. The clubs are adapted to the needs of the child, teaching them to play, work and study together under supervision. There are three clubs for the mothers, one for the kindergarten mothers, one for the cubs mothers and one for the in day nursery mothers, which contests the building in which the kindergarten is located. Miss Emerson is assisted by Miss Eugenia McCabe and Miss Carribel Coles. Miss Lombard teaches cooking and housekeeping, and volunteer service is given by Miss Dorothy Putnam and George Moore.

I cannot be sure to tell you all the benefits I have received since the arrival of the two specimens of Loadstones you sent me. For many years I was convinced that no person lived who was more unfortunate than myself. Loss in business; death of loved ones and other troubles too numerous to mention, were driving me to a state of frenzy. A friend told me to write you for information regarding the system of two Loadstones and their power. As a cast resort I did so, and later purchased two of them.

At the time the Lafayette management issued the edict that colored people were to be allowed on the second floor only there were many who wanted to vote the owners of the house a Carnegie medal for having the nerve to offer colored theatregoers such an insult, taking into consideration that the Lafayette Theatre is located in what might be termed "a colored neighborhood." Sad to relate, from the management's point of view, the theatre is not doing so well. In fact, the cashier in the box office, who has been guilty of discourteously telling applicants of color who applied for seats in the orchestra that "there was nothing doing," has many idle moments now, and time weighs heavily on her hands. The jingle of the dimes and nickels would be sweeter music to the managers of the Lafayette Theatre than Nevin's "Rosary" or Rinstein's "Melody in F," but such music, when heard, is now and then not constantly. The condition of the Lafayette Theatre is somewhat similar to that of Jeffries, just as he was about to take a quick exit into the land of noel very unsteady in the underpinning. Self-respecting colored people refuse to patronize the place, and the white clientele, even with the policy of barring colored patrons from sitting on the first floor, is not large. The picture of playing to a full house, with the orchestra composed of whites, and a balcony jammed with colored people, has failed to materialize. Before the house opened such a picture looked like a Rembrandt to the promoters, but now it is evidently rated less than a tintype. The Lafayette Theatre management, while in moments of depression, will probably assign bad business, or no business, to bad luck. However, to my mind bad judgment, rather than ill luck, has made all the trouble. Those who determine the policies to be pursued at the Lafayette should have known that it was necessary to have opened a theatre in a "colored section," draw the color line, and then expect kindly consideration from the colored theatregoers. It is true that when the house opened 132d street was considered the southern boundary line of the "colored section," but since that time 131st street has been invaded. With Keith's Alhambra Theatre, Proctor's 125th Street Theatre, Loew's Seventh Avenue Theatre and Hurtig and Seamon's Music Hall less than six blocks away, the owners of the Lafayette Theatre should have been influenced either by instinct or judgment with reference to running their house. But fortunately they allowed color prejudice to play a leading part; hence, with the white people going to established theatres, and the colored citizens refusing to be humiliated, all indications are that the count of ten is about to be called on the Lafayette Theatre. Harlem has a new theatre, and although no official statement has been made that it has been opened for colored theatregoers, nevertheless such is the case. The new amusement place is known as the Franklin Theatre, and is located at 132d street and Lenox avenue. The house was formally opened Monday, December 30. The Franklin Theatre is a 299-seat house, and, while small, is well appointed. There are no boxes, and all the seats are ten cents. The owner of the Franklin Theatre is M. Ostriker, who was associated with Martinson & Nibur in an airdome last summer, which was located at 135th street and Fifth avenue. Although there is an Ostriker connected with the Lafayette Theatre, Mr. Ostriker wishes it known that he has never been interested in the Seventh avenue house. A pleasing feature of Franklin Theatre is that all of its help is colored. The first person you meet as you enter the small lobby is Harry Hart, the congenial special officer, clad in a uniform of gray. The young lady who acts a dispenser of the little pieces of cardboard in exchange for ten cents is colored, and you are shown a seat by a colored female usher. Marie Lucas has charge of a three-piece orchestra, which is made up of a piano, violin and drums. While in conversation with Mr. Ostriker I took occasion to compliment him on employing colored help, in view of the fact that his audience was made up of colored people, and he assured me that he intended to keep up the good work. Both the Crescent and Franklin Theatre employ white pianists to work the motion picture machine, but colored operators will be used if the audience found and competent and reliable. While doing trees in Hickory make reference ress of Lemox avail to the Lily Everest in the ocean plotted and been done, it cannot be definitely stated when activities will be taken Thomas Johnson, president of the DRAMATICS AND ATHLETICS Johnson Amusement Company, wishes it known that all stockholders who desire to get their money back are at liberty to do so.

This small company of concerts, singers and dancers furnish lively and enjoyable entertainment. There are some good singers and dancers in the organization, and the comedy in the plantation scene is oftimes much profiling. With the Reese Brothers and their company at the Crescent Theatre this week Messrs. Friob and Martinson would profit thereby.

TESTIMONIAL TO SAM LUCAS A number of distinguished citizens of New York have arranged to give a grand testimonial to Sam Lucas, dean of the colored theatrical profession, on Tuesday evening, January 28, at Young's Casino. Sam Lucas, our oldest colored performer, was born at Washington Court House, O., on August 7, 1842. He entered the theatrical profession in 1873, making his debut with Law Johnson's Plantation Mistrels. Since 1873 he has constantly appeared on the boards in numerous shows, and has originated many characters. Sam Lucas was the first colored man to play the part of Uncle Tom in SAM LUCAS SAM LUCAS "Uncle Tom's Cabin." He also wrote a great many songs which became popular, including the famous "Grandfather's Clock." Some of the well-known shows of late years in which he appeared include "The Greoles." "Darkest America." "A Trip to Chinatown." "Moonshiner's daughter." "Shoo-Fly Regiment" and "The Red Moon." Lately he appeared in vaudeville, but was compelled to retire from the stage on account of ill health. The committee of well-known Negroes having charge of the testimonial is headed by Bert A. Williams, and includes Aida-Overton-Walker, who is the treasurer; ex-Governor Pinchback; Collector Chas W. Anderson, Fred R. Moore, Dr. Gustavus Henderson and othrs Gleim L. Young has given his casino for the occasion, and the New Amsterdam Musical Association has volunteered the music. Bert A. Williams started the subscription list by presenting his check for $50. Other subscriptions for the Sam Lucas testimonial can be sent to THE. NEW YORK Ace office or to Aida-Overton-Walker, treasurer of the fund, at 107 West 132d street. The Ace will publish a list of subscribers and among each week "IN BUTTERFLY LAND." "In Butterfly Land," styled a dramatic fantasia, was creditably presented by the Flying Squadron before a good-sized audience at the Majestic Hall, 125 East 125th street, Friday evening. The Flying Squadron is an organization composed of talented young ladies, and its object in giving the entertainment was to give financial and to the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. The lyrics for the production were written by Mrs. Dora Cole Norman Miss Helen Elsie Smith directed the music, the costumes were designed by Miss Louise R. Latimer, and the dances were taught by Mrs. Dora Cole Norman and Miss Carriebel Cole. The dances were particularly good, being given with precision and grace. The work of Miss Carriebel Cole was a feature. The cast of characters: Little Lonesome, Madeline Allison; Chrysalis, Carrilebel Cole; Lepidoptera, Louise R.

The dances were: The Morning Dance, the Bumble Bee Field Dance, Hungarian Dance, Irish Jig, Russian Dance, Spanish Dance, Highland Schottische, the American Dance and Butterfly Farewell. THE WHITE RECITAL Despite the inclement weather an audience of 250 persons attended the third organ recital at Siloam Presbyterian Church, Brooklyn, Friday evening, which was given under the auspices of William A. White. The assisting artists were Miss Amy Finder Bailey, soprano, of Providence, who is the possessor of a sweet voice and whose future appears promising; Mrs. H. H. Price, pianist, of Boston, who displayed marked technique; William C. Elkins, basso; W. H. Wiggins, violinist, and R. Henri Strange, reader. Messrs. Elkins, Wiggins and Strange are well known to New Yorkers. As an organist Mr. White's work shows improvement, especially in "The Andante" and "Allergic Modern movements by Romsean. Says Spencer: "Gedeong Youfer Set." I Bet You Can't Say it 3 Times YOUNGER SET He was all Right in his Younger Days, but— DEAN OF THE COLORED THEATRICAL PROFESSION IN HONOR OF HIS 40TH STAGE ANNIVERSARY WILL BE TENDERED A really keep them from toeing the lines. As soon as the Younger Set team, was organized The Age kindly gave publicity to the fact; immediately I received a letter from the captain of the Spartan Girls asking if the information was correct and stating that if such was the case the Spartans would challenge the Younger Set to a game. Mind you the new team hadn't had time to practice. However, under captain John McCarthy, under captain of the ship of Mint Edith Triee, by the way, was the captain of Spartan champion team last season, the team lay hard and constant practice was whipped into presentable shape. I made it my first duty to seek the captain of the Spartans and proposed arranging a date. I explained to her my plan to have the Younger Set play out of town teams until it had gained a reputation before making its initial appearance at the home court, which is Young's Casino, and that for that part of the Spartan Girls the strongest and most desirable opponent in the field. The young lady immediately informed me that as her note to the constituted a challenge the Younger Set team was compelled by the rules to hold its first game under the Spartan's auspices. I denied that such a rule existed so the fair damned switches from her statement to another, to wit, that it was an unwritten law of the game. I informed the lady captain to deliver the unwritten chatter to Sawyer in the third game, lowing proposition; That the Younger Set Girls would play the Spartan Girls a series of three games for a loving cup which would become the property of the club winning two games of the series; that the Younger Set would furnish the loving cup; that the first game was to be held under the auspices of the Younger Set at their home court, Young's Casino; that the second game would be played under the auspices of the Spartan Set at their home court and the third game to be held under the auspices of the club winning the largest total in the first two games, the proceeds from which, after expenses had been deducted, to go to charity. Spartans declined the offer with scorn. Since declining my offer they have been defeated by the Criterion Girls of Newark to the tune of 11 to 7. The Younger Set Girls, a brand new team, have only played six games and have won all of the six, which makes their percentage to date 1.000. As I cannot find a team to equal my team's record I am bringing the strongest attraction I can find to play the Younger Set Girls, to-well, the Criterion Girls of Newark, the same team which defeated Spartans very recently. The date selected is Monday evening, February 3d, and the place is our home court. Young's game is on time and play is shall introduce to New York the Younger Set Girls basketball team, the neatest, sweetest, likewise clearest girl's team it has known. I really believe it is the team that put the word "all" in basketball. Respectfully yours, HENRY S.

On New Year's day at Manhattan Casino the Alpha Physical Culture Club and St. Christopher A. C. met in a battle royal, the Alpha quint coming out victor, 18 to 11. The rivalry existing between the two teams is intense, and each club had an enthusiastic galaxy or rockers on hand to make plenty of din whoever a ball was caged. The first period was closely contested, and when the whistle blew for the players to take a little rest the score stood 8 to 8. In the second period Alpha showed more agility, better team work, and was more adept at shooting the ball, increasing its score materially. St. Christopher had several opportunities to score, but only once, on a foul, was taken from the ball in the basket. THIRD Alph. St. Christopher Thomas R.F. Matthews Wiggin L.F.

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 saddest spectacles in European life. As he says: "Some people will think, perhaps, that everything I was looking for was commonplace or bad, and that I avoided everything extraordinary or worth while looking at. My only excuse is that I was, in fact, not looking for the best but for the worst. I was hunting for the man farthest down, he shows an abundance of hope for him." Doublery, Page & Co.
