TO TEST LEGALITY OF COVENANT
Harlem Negroes Plan to Break Agreement Formed by White Owners
EQUITY CONGRESS ACTS
Resolution Passed to Take Steps to Learn if Restricted Real Estate Sections Are Legal
Covenant Filed in Register's Office in February, 1911, Has Many Assuming Provisions.
At the regular weekly session of the Equity Congress, held Sunday afternoon at 90 West 134th street, a resolution was adopted to test the validity of the covenant entered into in February, 1911, by ninety-one white property owners in Harlem, in which they agreed not to sell, lease or rent their property to Negroes for fifteen years. After consulting legal authorities it has been learned that such an instrument, designed to prevent Negroes from buying in certain sections of Harlem on account of their color, is illegal and will not stand in the courts.
The resolution was introduced by J.B. Wood, a colored real estate operator, and there was not a dissenting vote against the proposition to prove that the covenant is illegal.
The resolution follows.
In view of the fact that there is a certain institution known as the Harlem Home Projective Association, its subject being to advise white property owners to sign a petition restricting colored people from living in certain sections or occupying certain properties in New York City or in Harlem, and
Whereas, that several property owners have signed such a petition, and
Whereas, that said petition has been recorded in the County Clerk's office effecting certain properties in Harlem, and
Whereas, that it is a question as to whether or not that such a petition is constitutional;
Be it resolved, that the Equity Congress will appoint a committee to get a copy of said petition from the Hall of Records and present the same to the Equity Congress at its next regular meeting.
The committee will have the power to take such legal steps that is necessary to have the petition in question removed;
Be it further resolved, that the committee shall have the right to make all necessary arrangements for the purpose of procuring means to pay all legal expenses which will occur in having said petition removed.
On Friday, February 21, 1971, ninety-one white property owners meet at the Register's office in the Hall of Records and filed a voluminous document binding themselves not to sell to Negroes. This move at that time was regarded with amusement by colored real estate brokers. Several houses in the "restricted" section have since been bought or leased by Negroes. Sections of the document which occasioned most amusement were:
The property owners bind themselves not to allow any part of their premises to be occupied in whole or in part by any Negro, mulatto, quadroon or octoroon of either sex either as a tenant, guest, board, or occupant in any other capacity, way or manner. Tenants of each house or flat may not employ than one man and one female than one or two Negroes "mulattoes, quadroons or octoroons to perform the duties ordinarily performed by a household servant." There may be, in short, only one black man servant to each family. Some of the simmers of the document are owners of apartment houses. The document doesn't forbid their employing Negro elevators but no house may have more zero bellboys, painters, cleaners or servants in it than it has families properly owners agree that any one who breaks the covets or tender himself or herself in the premises procedures, infiltration and damage suits the owners.
the civil society is that the people are instituted in the short time to deny the per-

Baltimore Negroes Sold to Have Acquired Property Valued Between $7,000,000 and $10,000,000—Housing Conditions a Vital Question.
Special to THE NEW YORK AME.
BALTIMORE, Md., Feb. 12.—Although there are 90,000 Negroes in this city, and the question of housing them is a vital one, H. M. Burkett, a colored real estate broker, is responsible for the statement that the Negro citizens own property in Baltimore valued between $7,000,000 and $10,000,000.
In discussing housing conditions affecting the Negro, Mr. Burkett says:
The work of improving the housing conditions for colored people has gone on unremittingly for 14 years, and within this period there have been sold by one firm more than four hundred houses to colored people, most of whom receive only a small wage. Of these four hundred purchasers in 14 years there has not been one foreclosure or loss of property from failure to keep up obligations.
Within the last 14 years the home life of our colored citizens has improved at least 40 per cent, and when the small wages of the average colored citizen, his lack of knowledge of systematic saving, the burden of taxation, the inexperience of investing, are taken into consideration; the tact that is large a number have kept their obligations without a single failure is remarkable.
The exact value of property owned by colored people in Baltimore may not be easily ascertained. While the city has been diligent to keep a record of colored criminals, it has not apparently kept a record, of colored taxpayers. Without definite information it would probably not be far amiss to say that the value of property owned by colored people in this city is between $200,000 and $10,000. While this sum, compared with the total of taxable city property, is insufficient, yet it may be worth while to show that this accumulation has been made by a peasant people, in a very short while and under many infallible conditions, in many instances in the face of bitter opposition.
The discouraging features to colored ownership have been: First, small wages, second a lack of knowledge of systematic saving; third, ignorance of the methods of how to acquire property; fourth, discouragement by those who have lost their property through cunning and dishonest agents; fifth, over taxation of colored people; sixth, lack of the element of which appeals to the race and which secret societies or industrial insurance encourage; seventh, fear of injury and loss to their property in case of race disturbances.
The encouraging features to colored ownership are: First, the natural desire for home and comforts; second, the ground rent system; third, lagg rents charged colored tenants; fourth, the fair decisions of Maryland courts in protecting the property rights of colored people; fifth, the excellent police protection given colored property owners; sixth, the fact that colored people in Baltimore are not forced to live in the red-light district, as is true in some cities; seventh, the equitable assessment of taxes and insurance rates; eighth, the encouragement given colored people to own homes from a number of reputable white brokers.
THERE WILL BE NO WHOLESALE DISMISSALS
President-Elect Wilson Does Not Intend to Discharge Army of Republicans March 4.
WASHINGTON, D. C. Feb. 11—President-elect Wilson has sent word to members of the Senate that he will make no clean sweep of Republican office holders after March 4 merely for the sake of furnishing hungry Democrat with joke.
The general policy will be to allow Republican office holders to serve out the terms for which they were appointed. He will disturb none, so long as they conduct their offices efficiently and live up to the requirements of good behavior.
Many Democrats have been proceeding on the theory that as soon as March 4 arrives there will be a cleaning out of the Republics all along the line. Governor Wilson has set down land upon this notion.
The question of the general attitude of Governor Wilson when he becomes chief executive toward the employees in the civil service through distinct from the question of what course will be taken toward office holders not under civil service, is also being much discussed about the capital.
All of the information that has come to senators and members of the house is that Governor Wilson intends to be perpetually observant of the letter and the spirit of the civil service law. This means that the tens of thousands of government employees who are under his control are going

ABRAHAM LINCOLN—THE TWO IMMORTALS—PREDERICK DOUGLASS
Peter J. Smith is Reported to be a Candidate for Assistant Register of the Treasury.
Special to The New York Asn.
WASHINGTON D. C. Feb. 12. Indications point to the inaugural week being an unusually quiet one among the Negroes of Washington. Thus far there have been no satisfactory steps taken to give any balls and other entertainments. The famed Monican Club, which usually gives a swell affair on March 4 of inaugural week, after hearing reports as to the very few possible colored visitors here that week, cancelled their reservation of a ball for a ball, and retired from the entertaining field for that week. The usual Citizens' Ball, which Daniel Murray has managed in years past, may not be a big success. Although Mr. Murray has caused the usual notices to be sent out and has taken option on a ball, many of the responses have not been so satisfactory as to indicate the ball will be given. The three dancing clubs which took the date of the Monican Club, March 3, for Auditorium Hall, are meeting with unfavorable responses to their invitations, many of the club members even not subscribing.
The fact that President-elect Wilson discouraged a white inaugural ball has had its effect in making a colored ball exceedingly doubtful. Then, from reports received by colored men here who are usually prominent in social entertainments, the number of colored visitors here inaugural week will be very limited, and the few who are contemplating coming appear to be men only. The duties in social circles are not planning any house entertainments, for the reason that they, too, are not expecting visitors. Indications are that colored people who come to Washington in municipal week expecting the usual brilliant round of entertainments will run into a Lenten death of social affairs. Up to date not a single social organization nor a single woman prominent in social circles has decided upon anything. This time four years ago arrangements had all been completed for a brilliant series of social affairs, both private and semi-public.
Unquestionably the abandoning of the plan to give either a ball or a reception by the whites, out of difference to the President-elect's wishes, has thrown a damper on social plans among the colored contingent, and the fact that all information obtainable points to a searcity of colored female visitors here that week has proved another drawback to polling if balls or private parties old residents of Washington insist that

the very brilliant holiday season, which was unusually prolific of social entertainments and was marked by a great number of lady visitors, constitutes the host indication of a dull inaugural week from a society viewpoint. They say that the many Washington holiday visitors would have postponed their visit to inaugural week and there been any indication that Washington colored society would be dourful things that week. The consensus among the colored Washington, inaugural week will be dull as a country village in Alaska.
Dr. Peter J. Smith is the latest announced aspirant for the position of Assistant Register of the Treasury, to succeed the present incumbent, Mr. Stuart Kand. Dr. Smith was an aspirant for the same office a few years ago under President Tait, to succeed Cyrus Freid Adams. Failing to get the place, he metamorphosed himself into a Democrat, and is now out for the same $250 job at the hands of President-elect Wilson. As it is reported the general economy and efficiency committee as recommended the abolishment of this office, Dr. Smith may have to focus his political eye on some other job.
At the time of closing this correspondence there were just fifteen colored Democrats entered in the race for Recorder of Deeds, and an equal number of white men. In view of the scramble for it, Henry Lincoln Johnson, the present incumbent, is making no immediate arrangements for vacating his office.

Negro chauffeurs are in considerable demand in New York, and that the need may be supplied a number of auto-schools have been established and are being induced by Negroes. They are located in all sections of New York, and all of them have a goodly number of students.
There are several garages, also owned and conducted by Negroes, some in their own buildings, and these have a large clientele among the wealthest of New York's automobilists.

and pistols. His first job came from a pawnshop. Going there with a crocs snuck, he got a lot of clocks which had been pawned to clean up and repair at 10 cents a clock. As the clocks needed cleaning more than anything else, he procured a large nine tink, put three or four gallons of heroin and a little oil into the tink, and in to this mixture put the clocks two and three dozen at a time. In this way he cleaned nearly three hundred in a day. Repairing gum, pistols and bicycles, and building bicycles to order, he succeeded in making that first year between $400 and $500.
Going South on a visit, his brother borrowed practically all of this money and Felton returned to New York "broke." He went to a white man with whom he had become friendly, and who had a shop on West 40th street. This man agreed to sell out to him for $15. One day a French chauffeur came into his shop with a piece of brass pipe. The Frenchman could speak no English and Felton could speak no French Finally, by dint of signs, the man made Felton understand that he wanted the pipe prized. Felton did so and pleased the Frenchman to such an extent that all the work he had atter that was thrown to Felton, who still had to be shown by signs what was wanted.
His First Auto School.
Getting this insight into the automobile business, Mr. Felton soon mastered it, and opened an auto school at 240 Eighth avenue. His business developed to an extent that made it necessary to open another place on Seventh avenue. At the Eighth avenue place he had as his partner Lee Pollard, but after some strenuous experiences, in which it seemed at times that the business would certainly go to the wall, Pollard took advantage of a favorable opportunity and withdrew. The partnership ran from 1901 to 1902.
After Mr. Pollard's withdrawal Mr. Felton opened a garage at 353 West 39th street, and remained there until 1905, when he went to 309 West 41st street. Three years ago his business, under the title of the Auto Transportation and Sales Company, was moved to 304-6 West 40th street, and at this time possibly the largest automobile business conducted by Neroues in New York is controlled by Mr. Felton. He controls the seventh story building at that number, as floor of the floors are used by his company. They handle about 175 car sales and will average from three to four cars a week, and about fifteen people are employed.
Mr. Felton is working on a warning device which he must test to size the process of cutting the machines. It is completed and patented and will soon be placed in the market.
Mr. Fetter took an automobile trip with during the past fall, leaving New York on Thursday November 7, and teaching Marshville Ga. his old hometown Wednesday, November 13.

WALTERS WILL NOT TAKE A JOB
Democratic Leader Will Remain as a Bishop of A.M.E. Zion Church
Robert N. Wood Said to Be Making Overtures to Bishop Walters to "Kiss and Make up"
From Big List of Applicants It Appears as if Everybody's Doing It - No One Certain of Appointments.
Members of the United Colored Democracy and local lights in the National Colored Democratic League are awaiting with a good deal of interest the falling of plums that is expected to come to colored Democracy after the inauguration of President-elect Wilson. They are all trying to harmonize difference, it is said, in order to present a solid front at the pie counter. Robert N. Wood, head of the New York Colored Democracy, is said to have again assured Bishop Walters that he was loyal. It will be remembered that differences between the followers of Bishop Walters and the Wood clan can be crop just after the nomination to Governor Wilson. A few weeks before the Cottonwood Wood is said to have gone to the Bishop and pledged loyalty. Just after the election, when finding citizens gave a banquet in honor of the Bishop, the order is said to have good down the line for the members of the United Colored Democracy to boycott the affair and several including Chief Wood did.
A few nights after and the following day, W. Wood gave a little function in his honor, and the Bishop and his fellow officers were not there. Since then the Bishop has formed larger as a leader among Lared Democrats, and Chies Wood and I said he among those who have seen the light. The chief sought out the Bishop a few days ago, it is said, and told him that he believed that elected Democrats should be limited and that Democrat with all would be peaches and claim between him and the Bishop. While many are speculating who Gov Wilson will favor among colored Democrats, there has not been the slightest suggestion made that any particular colored Democrat will bind a big job. It may be said, however, that there will be a "Black Calmet" under the Wilson regime. Bishop Walters, it may be stated on authority, will not have any position under Gov Wilson. Shortly after the election someone close to President-elect Wilson approached the Bishop and offered to me every influence to have him appointed as the next United States Minister to Haiti as a reward for his services, it is said. The Bishop, according to current gossip, told the gentleman that he appreciated his interest, but that he only entered the fight because he wanted to see the Negro vote divided, and therefore would not be a candidate or accept any office. He also said that he regarded his work as a Bishop of the African Methodist Episcopal Zion Church as the biggest position he could fill for the race.
It is said that more colored Democrites than were supposed to exist will be in the race for preferment at the hands of the incoming administration. To succeed Charles W. Anderson a collector of internal revenue for the Wall Street District Robert N. Wood and many others are mentioned. Dr W. E. B. DuBois until recently a Socialist Counselor Rufus I. Perry and Dr J. D. Oliver a practicing physician of Brazil and are among those mentioned in connection with the post of Minister to Haifa.

to make it reach a twin and had it camp out in the woods just after crossing the line into South Carolina. Going from South Carolina into Georgia, crossing the mountains, the two front springs were broken. They were strapped down when Athens was reached. En route Athens to Macon the party lost the road and had to spend another night camped out in the woods. At Fort Valley a telegram was sent back to New York for new springs to be shipped to Marshallville.
A month was spent in the old home and many old friendships renewed and new acquaintances made. The white people, contrary to the usual idea, were exceedingly cordial and friendly and showed the party every consideration. Several business deals were made by Mr. Felton and some connections made with white business men in Marshallville that are bringing tangible results. Returning, the party drove as far as Fort Valley, from which point the car was shipped to New York, the party returning by train.
Only Negro Ever Appointed State Examiner.
The Broadway Auto School and Sales Company, at 213 West 53d street, is conducted by Benjamin F. Thomas. It was established three years ago. Mr. Thomas has the unique distinction of being the only Nexro in New York ever appointed a State examiner of chauffeurs. For this position he took a civil service examination, participated in by more than eight hundred applicants. Of that number only eighty passed. Mr. Thomas being No. 13 on the list. He held this position for six months, and during this time conducted examinations at Broadway and 74th street, New York City, Albany and Saratoga. There were six sections of examiners with a captain over each section, and Mr. Thomas' knowledge and experience gained for him the position of captain of a section. It is claimed that the prescense of Mr. Thomas on the board of examiners saved the Negro chauffeurs in New York from being eliminated, and this is partly borne out by an experience Mr. Thomas had with his first class.
There were a number of Negro chauffeurs who could drive a car but had not sufficient education to acquire the theoretical knowledge which would enable them to answer questions put by the examiners. In the first class examined by Mr. Thomas there was one Negro. The law required the photo of every applicant to be attached to his papers, so that when one of the white examiners in Mr. Thomas' section picked up the Negro's papers he called out. "Here's a

coon," not thinking about his captain. Others, as thoughtless, sang out "Kill him," that being the phrase used when an applicant's answers to the questions were wrong and he could not pass. The examiner realised immediately that he had made a "break," but Mr. Thomas went on with his work, paying seemingly no attention. So the examiner brought the paper to him and asked about it.
Speaking of it, Mr. Thomas said the paper was pretty bad, but in order to get back at the white examiner he said to him, "Oh, let the fellow pass." "All right," said the other examiner, and so the Negro was passed. Thus stopped my further exhibition of color prejudice in the section captained by Mr. Thomas.
On another occasion a white applicant tried to refuse to sit by a colored man. Mr. Thomas' section, and wanted to take a seat other than that given him
the examiner. The chief examiner, being called in, informed him with emphasis that he would take the seat allotted or he would take no examination. He silt into the seat all right, and the examination had progressed but a short way before this same fellow was calling to the colored examiner to help him out on a tough question. Since giving up this work Mr. Thomas has succeeded in getting a position for a colored girl as stenographer in the office of the State examiner, which position she is holding at this time. The Broadway Auto School, under Mr. Thomas, has turned out about five hundred chauffeurs, and the classes average from sixty to seventy. The term runs from four weeks to an unlimited period, according to the price the student cares to pay. There are five instructors, three in the day and two at night, with Mr. Thomas giving special lectures at both sessions.
The sales department, in addition to cars kept at the 53d street number, leases a floor at 304 West 49th street, and twenty-five or thirty cars are kept there all the time. About 150 cars a year are sold, of all makes, some weeks during the summer as many as five or six being sold.
Has Taxia and Touring Cars for Hire. At 2142 Madison avenue, on the southwest corner of 135th street, J. A. Roberts is conducting his auto school and repair shop. He has had this place all out two years. For three years prior to that time he conducted the Home Garage at 57 West 63d street. Mr. Roberts has about twenty students in his day and night classes, and said to an Agent representative that he had received letters from prospective students in all sections of the country stating that they saw his advertisement in The Arg.
Mr. Roberts runs two taxi cabs and has touring cars for hire. His taxi cabs are painted yellow and some time ago the Yellow Taxi Cab Company took out an injunction against him to prevent the painting of his taxis yellow. His business was interfered with by the cabs being tied up for several weeks, but when the case was heard before Judge Blanchard the injunction was dissolved, the judge declaring that Mr. Roberts had the right to paint his cabs any color he desired. As a consequence of the loss entailed by the injunction and the

STRAIGHTEN YOUR HAIR.
Not with not alone. But do it with Kink no more the greatest hair straightening preparation on earth. Kink no more will strengthen the knicker kind of hair that doesn't fit the preparation that all you have to do is to apply it on the hair and with a little clumping the hair becomes straight, not to stay for one day or one week, but to last from six to eight months. Water or nothing else will make it kink that doesn't fit the preparation that all you have to do is a counter worker. So marvelously does it do its work that one can hardly believe their own eyes. It works like magic, and is unique because there is not in her preparait in the world like we offer a reward for any kind of hair.
Kink no more is a vegetable compound; it is perfectly harmless and will not injure the scalp nor hair. But will stop it from falling out; positively removes daudruf; promotes a injured growth of healthy skin and keeps it off and gloves. Remember that Kink no more is sold under a guarantee to do all that is claimed for it or money refunded. We will send to anyone on the receipt of $1.00 a regular size box of Kink no more, enough to straighten from office or at home, and send registered letter, postal money order or express money order. Liberal inducements offered to agents. Write to day for special terms. Enclose 2 cent stamp to reply. Agents wanted everywhere. Address wanted & Jones, 100 Springwood avenue, Amber Park N.

Mr. Roberts takes out four owners' licenses to run his cars.
The Imperial Garage, 52 West 67th street, is owned by Wm. W. Hubbell, who also owns the building in which it is located. The business was started by Mr. Hubbell's father, who died not long ago, leaving an estate to his son valued in the neighborhood of $250,000. Mr. Hubbell, to all appearances, is doing a good business, though it was impossible for the representative of The Arm, to secure a personal interview.
The Hudson Garage Company, at 2 West 90th street, Eljahh Scott, A. J. Moran and Allen Lane, proprietors, enjoys extensive patronage, and has a branch at 133 Amsterdam avenue.
Plunge Dabney and Chas. Lewis have lately opened a garage at the foot of West 63d street, at West End avenue, and these young men will probably get their share of the business. Fred Searles has moved to the corner of 145th street and Lenox avenue, where he is erecting a new building for his garage.

FIGHT FOR CIVIL RIGHTS IN NEW-YORK
The fight for equality of civil rights in New York State, instead of having been finished long ago, by the law abolishing separate schools and the law prohibiting discrimination in the matter of civil rights because of race and color, seems suddenly to have broken out anew and with greater insolence and lung power, in the New York legislature, in certain newspapers, in the National Guard, and in the Southern Society in New York. In fact, most of the trouble has always had its storm center in the Southern Society in New York, and among the white Southerners who have made New York their home in recent years, and who are to be found, with the evil eye and the bad suggestion, in most of the newspaper offices, in public offices, in private business enterprises and in the trades and professions. We know them wherever we meet them, and have never hesitated to give them a Roland for an Oliver, an eye for an eye, as often as they have invited the retort courtroom or the blow direct. Every Negro in New York should do in like sort. A Negro who is afraid of a white man is no good.
Fast upon the introduction of the Carswell act in the New York legislature to prevent the marriage of blacks and whites comes the rule of the State Boxing Commission that whites and blacks shall not engage in boxing bouts in any licensed boxing clubs in New York State. We challenge the right of the Boxing Commission to make and enforce any such rule, and those who are interested in such sports should pool their interests and begin a suit at once to test the legality of it, carrying the issue to the Court of Appeals of necessary. Then, again, fast upon the introduction of the Levy act, amending the Civil Rights act of 1900, and making more sweeping the prohibitions of the original act, so as to comprehend "creed" as well as "race and color," the Jews coming specifically under the term "creed" as well as generally under the terms "race and color"—fast upon the Levy act comes the refusal of Gen O'Ryan to consider favorably the demand for a Negro regiment of the National Guard, with or without Negro officers, and the resignation of Samuel Littman as sergeant of Company B. Forty-seventh Regiment, because his promotion has been blocked by Col. Henry C. Barthman, who "has steadily opposed the holding of an election as long as Littman was in the field" for promotion to be a second lieutenant, although the position has been vacant since last June. Read what Mr. Littman, who is a lawyer in Brooklyn, says, in the following:
Whatever he may be to other race elements of the American citizenship, there can be no question about it that Abraham Lincoln is and must so be regarded for all time as the spiritual tather of the Negro people. His name, signed by his hand, gave them at once freedom of life and of soul from bondage to others, as he whose life is owned by another has no freedom of soul, the higher part of man that should but always does not control the lower part of man. He may not have had it in mind to make them his spiritual children, but he did so make them, at the same time that he gave to the "Nation a new birth of freedom," and sealed the gift with his life's blood. A weaker President would have lost the nation to the Slave Power and slow death and perpetuated the system of human slavery upon the Western Hemisphere. When a part of the people of the Nation, therefore, as they now seem bent upon doing, question the Negro's right to an equal inheritance with them in the benefits of the government, we claim fatherhood in Abraham Lincoln as they must also, for he gave new life to the Negro first and then to the Nation, and equally to both. It is a point most vital in the Negro's freedom and citizenship that he keep in mind that fact, as well the other fact that he contributed 200,000 soldiers to fight for his own freedom and citizenship, as well as to give "the Nation a new birth of freedom," and that the black soldier, and the white soldier were alike animated and enthused by the genius, the steadfastness and the womanly tenderness of the same Father Abraham in the camp, on the long march and in the thick of the battle's "fierce alarms" and cannonade.
"It seemed best, however, that I should resign," said Mr. Littman, "although I cannot understand Col. Barthman's motive in not allowing me to become a commissioned officer just because I am a Hebron. If we are good enough to be private we ought to be allowed to givance if our work warrants it. I smoke a cigarette, I eat a sandwich, I learned of his opposition and he told me that he believed my position on the council of officers would be untenable."
That is precisely the position Adjutant General O'Ryan and the other National Guard authorities take against giving Negroes representation in the National Guard. The Jews and Negroes should make a joint issue of it and put it squarely up to Governor Sulzer. The National Guard is a fighting force in times of war, and there is no reason why its officers should be allowed to make it an exclusive social close corporation in times of peace. The State at least should not make itself a party to such discrimination "on account of race, color or creed."
We would not have it overlooked that those who, since 1876 have robbed the Negro of his civil and political rights, and striven by every legal device to crush and degrade his manhood, and who are now insisting in Congress and in the public press that the Negro is an alien in the commonwealth of Abraham Lincoln, are of the same people and of the same States that denied him any quarter in war and any peace and security in freedom after the war—the same Southern people who have no part in the government except such as they got by amnesty, voted by Congress, and by taking the oath of allegiance exacted of aliens, the conditions of which they have at no time hesitated to violate since they took it, as far as the Negro and his constitutional rights are concerned.
Abraham Lincoln was born 94 years ago and died 48 years ago. The Negro people will best celebrate his natal day as the years come and go, by building stronger and stronger, their individual character in high and noble manhood and citizenship, by proving their worth as Christian men and women, loyal to themselves and to the nation, and by contending at all times and under all circumstances for their coequality in the citizenship of the United States which they inherited as brave soldiers from the pen of Abraham Lincoln and the sword of Ulysses Simpson Grant. The children can have no greater instruction and the old folks no greater comfort than to study diligently the life and times of their father, Abraham Lincoln.
people, whether we call them a group, a circle, a church, a State or a nation. The strength of all of them, whether they be ten or an infinite multiple of ten, will always be reflected in one of them and the group the one gathers about him of like mind as himself. For example, Napoleon Bonaparte demonstrated when he was a young man that he was the strongest man of the new France that grew out of the downfall of Kingcraft, priestcraft and womancraft, and gathering about him men of like mind, after conquering the iconoclastic spirits of France, as represented by such human vultures and jackals of the Revolution as Marat, Danton and Robespierre, he conquered Europe for Democracy, which still holds it progressively enthralled.
Abraham Lincoln was so little esteemed as the commanding genius who was to crush the hydra-head of the Slave Power that men of his Cabinet like W. H. Seward, Salmon P. Chase and E. M. Stanton considered it a humiliation to take the final word from him as to work in their departments; but they had to take it, as he was the Master, representing the combined Christian spirit of the Republic against the wrong of human slavery. As it was in the Cabinet so it was with the officers commanding the armies in the field; they thought they knew more about conducting the war than President Lincoln did, and it was a long time before he was able to place them all under Grant, Sherman and Sheridan, who were not only of one mind with the President but with themselves and knew the game of war as four wills with one mind. It took a long time to get the four wills in touch with the one mind, but when President Lincoln had accomplished it the death the Slave Power was as certain as if Sherman had already marched "from Atlanta to the sea" and Grant had dictated terms of "unconditional surrender" to Lee at "Appomattox and its famous apple tree."
THE "40 ACRES AND A MULE"
DREAM.
The new editor of the Reformer of Richmond is not only one of the old surviving slaves, but a surviving member of the Legislature of North Carolina in Reconstruction days. He is the Honorable James Wainwright Poe, a True Reformer of the Grand Foundation of the United Order.
Personally, we think a great deal of Mr. Poe and wish him well in his new position "of honor, and enrolments not a few," but as an editor_he entertains too many ideas that have not "survived" and which stalk as ghosts of "I am" without the answering "I am." For instance, Editor Poe thinks that the Republican party must nominate former Senator J. B. Foraker of Ohio for President in 1916 or expect defeat. We do not even know whether there will be any Republican party in 1916 to nominate anything, as only four small States with 12 electoral votes came out of the November elections Republican, staggering, but alive, Senator Foraker, whom we greatly admire, would be among the first to tell Mr. Poe that he is a dead statesman, though a live man. Four years hence parties and statesmen will not look to themselves or to "survivors" of us as they look now.
Great men rise up in stirring times and take the leadership by sheer force of character, as if they were specially prepared for the work. For the most part they are, and those who are not so specially prepared, who oppose them, are invariably defeated sometimes because of defects in their character rather than education, and sometimes because of the weakness of their cause. So it was with Abraham Lincoln and Jefferson Davis: Lincoln, coming from the common people, without scholastic training, educated in the rough school of experience and his own intense pursuit of knowledge, with the just cause, was master from the start of Jefferson Davis, coming from the slave aristocracy, educated at West Point, with long experience as a Senator in Congress and in the Cabinet (as Secretary of War, in 1853, under President Pierce), because the cause was unjust, and because his character was warped, narrowed and weakened rather than straitened, broadened and strengthened by his education in the schools, in the Senate and in the Cabinet. As Shakespeare says, so it is, "thrice armed is he who hath his quarrel just." Had Napoleon possessed the moral strength of Abraham Lincoln he would have died at Malmaison with Josephine to love and care for him, leaving France a Republic, instead of at St. Helena, alone, chained as was Prometheus to his rock, with his heart devoured slowly by the Vultures of Conscience.
A very long time ago, soon after the Slave War, when we were very young, it was very difficult to pick out an old slave who did not believe and expect that the Federal Government owed him and would soon pay him "40 acres and a mule" to begin life with as a free man. The dream lived a long time as a ghost, and then went away as each "survivor" was planted in six feet of earth. Mr. Poe now is "glad" that the question of voting pensions to former slaves is being urged upon the attention of Congress, although the hearing it is receiving is practically dumb.
Abraham Lincoln was born February 12, 1809, and was assassinated April 15, 1865. He was acquainted with slavery but had no sympathy with it. He got his education outside the schools as a farm hand, as ferryman, as a surveyor, as storekeeper, as soldier in the Black Hawk War, as lawyer, as member of the Illinois Legislature, as Congressman, by studying men, books and things in their relation to persons, and applying his knowledge to the everyday affairs of life as he went along; so that when he crossed oratorical swords with Stephen A. Douglas in the contest for the seat in the Federal Senate held by the latter, in 1856, he lifted the joint debate on the general proposition, "Shall Slavery be Voted Up or Down?" into National moment and, although he lost the seat in the Senate, he gained by it the Republican nomination for President in 1860, and the election as the sixteenth President. His whole life was a process of education for the great work of the last four years of it, when the question was to be decided as to whether the Christian free people of the Republic or the Slave Power was to rule the Occidental nations; whether, as Mr. Lincoln stated it at Gettysburg, "the nation shall, under God, have a new birth of freedom, and that government of the people, by the people and for the people, shall not perish from the earth."
"The colored people passed through 246 years of slavery in this country. Are they not justly entitled to some consideration by the country their labor has made rich?" says Mr. Poe. Yes, but they will not get it in "Federal pensions" any more than they got in "40 acres and a mule"; they will get in the opportunity as free men to make homes and fortunes for themselves and their children, and if they get "the equal protection of the laws" with the opportunity they will have much to be grateful for in the end. Justice with equity is hard to collect of man
SOCIETY NEWS
Some people read a newspaper for one thing and some for another, and some don't read it at all, but just glance through it so as to be able to comfort themselves with the thought that they have done so, and to answer: "Oh, yes, I saw it!"—meaning the newspaper and not what is in it.
The modern newspaper is something like a hooking-glass, in which is reflected a part of the world's thought and work up to the time of "going to press," with the same curiosity, called purpose, that Narcissus looked into the running stream before mirrors and newspapers were invented. Some people would rather see themselves in the newspaper than in the mirror, and some want to see themselves in both, while few want to see themselves in either as others see them. It depends upon the world in which they live, and the world in which most people live is no larger than their immediate family circle and their little street block, or hamlet or town.
For the most part, most people live and are interested only in "Me and Mine." That is their world. Show them anything else, in a running stream, a looking-glass or a newspaper, and they will exclaim: "Oh. pshaw! I am not interested in that!" The editor of the East Tennessee News of Knoxville, who is young and sees far beyond the beautiful mountains that hem him in, overlooked this fact of the narrow world in which most people live when he wrote the following editorial crusher:
It is certainly strange to us, that, in this enlightened age, some people have not yet learned to read newspapers, and they term it, is not the substantial aide of a newspaper. There is nothing that we admire about newspapers, and we have enjoyed the substantial news in the paper, i.e., the editorials, the news concerning all of readers that pick up the paper and read nothing but the articles concerning the so-called married and who is visiting, and they are not solid enough to read the editorials and supervise time to prepare for them. The social news is only a side line of any newspaper, and you would not write a book written to us, waiting that the "society news of our town is not published, and that is the only thing which plight. We feel that a book of fiction would interest this lady more than any
The Ace may have some readers like "a lady" in Tennessee, but we have no quarrel with them, and shall continue to give them as much "society news" as we can after "the solids" have been provided for.

PINE BLUEE ARK
Pine Bluff, Ark. Feb. 11—Our professional and business men are steadily gaining strength and growing in their skills. Our city has a population of something over 15,000, and I doubt very much whether you can find another city of its size with so many real hustling colored people whom do a thriving business; we have nine doctors, all of whom are kept busy; we have five lawyers and they seem always busy. Our merchants are, fairly well patronized by our people.
Dennis Smith, one of our leading business men, died a few days ago.
The Women's Social Art Club is making great efforts to raise a fund with which to establish a reform museum in the city and will give a concert at Eik's Theatre next Friday night at which time they hope to realize a neat sum for that purpose. Building, Masonic grand lodge is housing two brick stores on their vacant property. They already have a stately and magnificent four-story temple for grand lodge purposes. All of the twelve letter carriers here are wearing their colored clocks here in the post office and the two janitors are also colored men. A. L. Burnett is one of the colored lawyers of the city and is the United States attorney for the district. J. F. Jones, lawyer, is said to be one of our wealthiest citizens.
The People drug store is a credit to the race and Dra. Young and Rougher are all being rented to colored professional men. The offices of the Muscle Temple are all being rented to colored professional men. Miss Maymie Gilliam is teaching an substitute at the Merrill High School this week. The public schools here are crowded (some following. Sentting capacity is not quite high). This conditions prevails throughout the "black belt." The churches are answering the calls of lost ones and there seems to be general good fellowship among the ministry of the city. The concert and moving picture show at Miller Theatre last night was a successful part. The teachers deserve much credit for their manner in dealing with the children and the public generally, put up concerts are given by Merrill High School to pay for a piano which the school uses.
Many colored men were discharged at the Cotton Belt shops this week.

A special week of Bible study and Sunday school methods is being held at Rust University February 9 to 15, conducted by the Rev. Dr. Homer C. Lyman, departmental superintendent of International Sunday School Association.
The young men of the Rust Lyumou School, consisting of students of the normal, college, preparatory and college department, have been carrying on a series of debating contests past week in order to select the students who will debate against Tunauloo University in the near future. Last year three young men, Moors. Trya Willham and Wonder from the Rust Lyumou met Tunauloo in a debating contest and defeated them. This some of the members will meet them again and try to repeat the performance of last year. Although they are very late in starting to prepare Tunauloo has been preparing since school opened.
When the dead go away they do not come back and, we do not hear their voices any more as we saw and heard them in their lifetime. On this account mankind in all ages, the most savage and most civilized, have striven to perpetuate "the form divine" and wise words of those they loved and honored most. Thus the antiquarian of to-day, delving in the buried cities, monasteries and libraries of the dead past, treasure of "jewels of great price" every piece of stone, clay or papyrus with the faltest figure shaped upon it by chisel or stylus which will recall a Jupiter with his head in the coludes or a Cleopatra Piarash with her feet in the black mud of the Egyptian Nile. The human intellect unfettered seeks forever and treelessly truth—the truth of everything that is and that has been. He has the longest lease of life. whose sayings and doings live longest in the monuments and libraries of the world, where the inquisitively studious mind can look upon them or read them.
The wise Egyptians, Greeks, Romans and Europeans have linked themselves as a continued story in history by their elaborate system of monuments and libraries, so that we know how they looked and what they sold and did and are able to avoid their mistakes and profit most by their success. We moderns have the wisdom of the ancients to guide us, and he is stupid indeed who cannot or will not tear of them. The poorest Negro child of today has advantages of education that were beyond the reach of Frederick Douglass, who was a grown man fall of grief and acquitted sorrow before he could read a fattered page or sign his name to one, and, like his Mussolins contemporary, Abraham Idman, he had to gather here and there scrape of knowledge against the great day when he was told at Newburyport to "Stand up, Frederick, and tell the's little story". And what a story he had to tell of slavery and the sorrows of the slave! It aroused the nation from ocean to ocean and shook the pillars of the slave power to their fall.
I saw much of Mr. Douglas from 1874, when I was a student at Howard University, to his death. He had a giant physique, capped by a massive head, the hair of which bristled like that of a lion. He had a voice as soft and low as the whispering sphyrus in a calm or loud as the thunder claps in a storm. He knew me and books as intimately as though he had been a schoolman from the kindergarten to the university. He was one of the few men of any given time who absorb knowledge insensibly from God's storehouse of wisdom. In conversation and public address he often spoke and acted as if he was dominated by a spirit with the wisdom with the chancery of wrath and indignation, impatient to annihilate oppression and the oppressor. Men of such character and strength appear but seldom and at long intervals, but when he do the names big in the history of mankind with the blood of men and the tears of women. The hosts of slavery were marshalled against the slave power by the eloquent slave master (Federico Federico and Charles Sumner, and the meand women who labored with them).
There were times when Mr. Doulssaw saw nothing but darkness and despair for the poor slave. On one such occasion he was pouring out a flood of jameson and a meeting in truth—loose black—up and, pointing a sharp, bony finger at him, exclaimed, "Frederick, is God dead!" And the darkness of despair from the great face of the man this face and run in his words, as do the words of the Master, reverencing through the area: "To be men and brethren."
He lived to rise out of the log cabin of a slave to be the associate of rulers of the world's thought and work and to write his name by the side of the great orators of the area. There will remain writ as long as the man who needs the inspiration of a great name, the example of a good citizen and the model of a good husband and father. And, now, there be many such need such inspiration and draw what Doulssas and what he said and did as their Fount of inspiration, rich in the living waters of life.

CHARITIES NEGLECTED BY CHURCHES
(BY MAY MARTEL)
The Union Rescue Home Mission, 64 East 133d street, wishes to thank the following persons for contributions:
"Anonymous," $1; Dr. J. R. Hillery, Mrs. M. Robinson, Miss D. McLeod, F. C. Thomas, Mr. Grillis and Mrs. J. Houston, each $1; Dr. Gustavus Henderson, $1 and medical treatment for child: the Rev. R. F. W. Benjamin, $1; Miss Maybolle McAdo, $1 and sherry for sick child, also child's sweater.
Any other donations will be acknowledged through this column.
The Hope Day Nursery, Young Women's Christian Association, White Rose Mission, Working Girls Home, Y.M.C. A. and the Union Rescue Home Mission are non-sociarian charitable organizations in Ebola-hit Haiti, managed and controlled by NGOs, and largely dependent upon them for support. They stand to help the poor, the needy, the unfortunate and erring ones of the race. Nearly all of them are aided a little financially by white friends, but not enough to afford their workers much relief, consequently they are often the ones most exposed to their rent and other current expenses and their efforts to do good are accordingly handicapped and curtailed.
The colored churches of the city, of which there are good number, are doing very little, if anything, to help these institutions with their financial struggle, but are directing their missionary efforts. Greenland's key mountainous Indian's are not only finding that charity begins at home. Hundreds of dollars are raised yearly for educational and missionary work in foreign lands—all of which is very good—but missionary work at home should not be left to die of neglect. With very little morifice the churches could set apart one Sunday in the year to lift a collection and divide it among those institutions, and I think I should break the monotony of my visual interested in them when I may it would be a Godsend to the work and overburdened workers.
Colored people seem to be waking up to the fact that they have some rights which other races must respect. A short white since, Henry Walker of 150 West 53d street, entered the restaurant of Lau Slack, Lau Tuck and Thomas (three gentlemen of the Orien-
Empire State Federation.
The Empire State Federation of Women's Clubs has a wide-awake woman in the person of Mrs. M. C. Lawton, state organizer. The state has nearly 3,000 women in its organization, and the organizer is doing very effectual work. It should be understood that no officer of the state receives one cent for any services rendered—not even the organizer, who must travel far and near to bring in our women's clubs. The traveling expenses of president, secretary, treasurer and all other officers come from their own pockets. Only regularly elected delegates representing their organizations have their expenses paid. This shows that these women have entered into this work of "lifting as they climb" from good motives with no expectancies of financial remuneration, and so are entitled to the utmost consideration and regard for the work they are doing.
The federation works along racial lines as colored women. Our clubs are not subservient to white people, and the women are sending for the president, secretary and organizer from many cities of the state to "come over and help them." Calls have been sent in from Rochester, Syracuse, Troy, Rome, Utica, Frankfort, Binghamton, Poughkeepsie, Peekshill and Corning. Our organizer, Mrs. Lawton, will soon visit these various places and bring in these clubs.
Industrial Seminary for Girls.
The Iowa State Federation of Colored Women's Clubs is attempting to establish an industrial seminary for girls. In this school a girl may receive a thorough training in the industrial arts, together with an academic education.
The economic pressure on the family forces many girls from school and into service at a very young age to help procure the growing needs of herself and of the family. Many friendless girls find it impossible to earn a living and at the same time attend school. The federation hopes to provide a way for these girls to receive the necessary training to make them intelligent and competent self-supporters. Twenty-five clubs aggregating about 300 women co-operate in the movement. The outlook is favorable that the school will be erected in a few months. The chairman of the financial committee has issued a call for a booster day about the middle of this month for the purpose of raising funds for the school.
The State Federation feels proud of the work done by the individual clubs in their special fields of uplifting. There are art clubs, literary clubs, study clubs, mother's congresses, religious clubs and one political club, each doing its respective duty in raising to a higher clane the moral, social, civil and home life and in stimulating the religious and the intellectual growth of our people.
Noted Minister Dead.
Orangeburg, S. C, Feb. -The Rev. W. L. Johnson died Monday, January 27 at 10:50 A. M. at his residence, 93 Treadwell street, after an illness of about ten months.
Mr. Johnson was a graduate from Lincoln University in the class of 1883, and was ordained to the ministry in the at the Macdonald College Church Fifth Avenue, New York City, being the first minister ordered in that church. He preach and teach and has resided in Orangburg more than forty years.
The Rev. Mr. Johnson was instrumental in mending many of the breaches of that century during the past twenty-five years and has grown more people out of it, discharged more crops, taken care of more afflicted people and returned more women than any minister in this locality.
He leaves aurnm of remembrance to
mourn his loss, one of his dependents,
bearng married Nath W. Moody, husband
and half-bearng of the Hotel
Good, New York City.

Mr. Walker very promptly brought
suit, and has won a verdict of $100

Municipal Court.
No doubt these very Americanized Chinamen will remember one colored man at least, and they will in future more respect for others of the race.
Every woman succeeds. Who thinks she can,
Let this be your motto and daily plan;
Cease from your dreams; be up and doing.
Always watching, forever pursuing.
The highest in life, the pure and real,
Seeking to find the perfect idea.
Think good thoughts, for the beautiful
youth.
Know that God walks with you every hour.
Have faith in Him, it increases your power.

ANSWERS TO CORRESPONDENTS.
M.: If you are painfully thin and wish to fatten eat plenty of fat-making foods, such as cereals, starchy vegetables, bread, butter, rice and eggs, raw, soft boiled or poached. In fact thin people can eat anything that is wholesome and nourishing and profit thereby. Fat in every form should be taken. It is exceedingly beneficial to take pure olive oil after each meal, a half-spoon of omelette. Get plenty of sleep, and check your inclination to worry. Be in the open as much as possible, but don't exert yourself too much walking. Be sure and do deep breathing.
To Alice: If you wish a good complexion see to it that your bowels, kidneys, skin and lungs are regular and unflagging in the performance of their several duties. To accomplish this you must regulate your diet, your drink, your baths and your breathing. If you have pimples don't expect to eradicate them by simply dabbing something on the face; look after your health. A bath should be taken oftener than once a week, for the pores of the skin become closed by neglecting the use of soap and water and pimples may result from that, besides one appears anything but sweet and wholesome.
S.: The greatest charm a pretty girl can have is a low, sweet voice; and no matter how homely one is she can never lack attractiveness if she has an arrestable voice. Deep breathing will help you in this respect. If you can afford it by all means take voice culture.

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 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." The inspiration of the book is that, having found the man farthest down, he shows an abundance of hope for him.

CHARLES H. MOORE TO WED.
Special to TIME NEW YORK ADR.
CINCINNATI, O., Feb. 11.—At a card party at which there were fifty invited guests at the residence of Mrs. Daisy S. Merchant, 1014 John street, the night of January 31, the engagement of Charles H. Moore of Greensboro, N. C., and Mrs. Daisy Simma-Merchant was publicly announced. Mrs. Merchant is the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Washington Simma. Mr. Simms for twenty years was one of the first colored teachers here on College Hill. For the last fifteen years he has been known as one of the leading caterers of this city. Mrs. Daisy Simma-Merchant happily enjoys the sincere friendship of a host of admiring friends, not only in the "Queen City," but throughout the central states wherever she is known. She is easily the most prominent, successful business woman in the city—that of caterress.
Mr. Moore, as is well known to the business and professional men of the country, has been for the past six years the national organizer of the National Negro Business League. Previous to his entering the league work he had been connected with the State Agricultural and Mechanical College for Negroes at Greensboro, N. C.; for fifteen years as vice-president and director of the academic department of the school

Sunday's service was introductory to a two-weeks' revival service at Allen A. M. E. Church. The pastor preached from Joshua 18:8 at the morning service, using for his subject, "Daughters in Delay." The Rev. J. H. Mason of Astoria, I. L. preached at the communion service 3.30 p. m.; at the evening service the Juvenile Missionary Stars rendered a sacred concert. Mrs. Annie Smith, 95 Smith street, is very much improved. Mrs. Jennie Blanchard still remains ill at Jamaica hospital. Mrs. Blanche Pordue returned from the German hospital, Ridgewood, L. I. has week, after a successful operation in recovery, from the neck. She is improving rapidly. The Willing Workers of Allen Church gave a very successful social at Mrs. Mary Hutton, 101 Douglas street, last Thursday evening for the benefit of the semi-annual mortgage interest. Mrs. Vioia Hitsch has again been confined to her bed.
The stork has left a fine baby boy with Mr. and Mrs. Frank Graham, Catherine street. The Rev. W.C. Taylor of Newark, N. J., visited the Revs. Batton and Wilson, Sunday. Mr. and Mrs. John T. Proctor are residing in Philadelphia for a while.
I cannot begin to tell you all the benefits I have received since the arrival of the two specimens of Leadstones you sent me.
For many years I was convinced that no person lived who was more unfortunate than myself. Loss in business; death of loved ones and other troubles too numerous to mention, were driving me to a state of frenzy. A friend told me to write you for information regarding the system of two Leadstones and their power.
As a last resort I did so, and later purchased two of them. Since then the great change in my career has been so remarkable as to be almost beyond belief. My business increased rapidly, and not a thing has occurred to mar my state of happiness. You are at liberty to use this letter as reference, for I believe it is my duty to let the world know of the wonderful change in my life, that I believe was brought about through the power and influence of two Loadstones.

only laid the chamois bag containing the two Loadstones on the dresser and forgot them. Trouble began as of old; my husband was fretful and finding fault with everything. I was all out of sorts myself and wondered what had happened to cause so much discord all at once. Finally I remembered the Loadstones and began to search for them. A few days later I found them tucked away in my machine drawer where one of the children had put them. Now everything, as far as I am concerned, is moving along nicely, but my husband, who laughed when the Loadstones first arrived, has changed his tune, and has sent you an order for a pair for himself.

THEATRICAL COMMENT
(BY LESTER A. WALTON)
ANNOUNCEMENT is made by Manager Rudolph Voekelk of the Black Patti Company, that Sarah Green-Byrd has replaced Tillie Seguin as leading lady. The change was made last week while the company was playing at the Howard Theatre, Washington, D. C. Miss Seguin was with the Black Patti Company two seasons. Sarah Green-Byrd has been appearing in vaudeville with the Three Black Byrds. She is a soprano singer far above the ordinary, and formerly filled important singing roles in shows headed by the late Ernest Hogan and Black Patti. The Black Patti Company is wending its way westward and will go as far as Kansas City, Mo. Manager Voekelk has arranged with Klaw and Erlanger to play the week of May 12, at the Grand Opera House in New York.
The time is not far off when the theatrical map affecting large colored road shows will be materially changed and the Southland will be considered an important field from a box-office point of view. During the days when we had the Williams and Walker, Ernest Hogan and Cole and Johnson companies, Louisville, Ky., was the farthest point South touched by these musical organizations. The Smart Set Company, headed by S. H. Dudley, which

is the largest colored show en tour, also makes Louisville the Southern boundary of its annual wanderings.
One of the colored musical shows which has done effective work toward increasing interest in the theatricals in the South is the Southern Smart Set Company of which S. Tutt Whitney is the leading comedian and Homer Tutt is straight man. This company has made many friends, due to the form of entertainment given and the gentlemanly conduct of the Whitney boys and the other members of the company.
S. Tutt Whitney is of the progressive school and is constantly advising the members of his company to study and make themselves more proficient as disciples of Thespis. On board the car which carries the Southern Smart Set Company through the South, a conservatory of music has been established with Miss Marie Wayne Townsend, formerly of Brooklyn, in charge of the instrumental department. The company now boasts of an orchestra with four violins, two guitars, two clarinets, one mandolin and one banjo. The vocal department is looked after by Russell Smith. With the large Negro population in the South and in view of the discriminating policy of many white theatrical
J. HOMER TUTT
managers, who allow colored patrons to sit in the gallery only, and then in certain sections, it would be a good move on the part of colored men with money in the South to build theatres for the better element of Negroes. Not only would they find the venture profitable, but they would be regarded as humanitarians as well. When more favorable conditions are brought about by the colored people of the South themselves, they will have an opportunity to see many colored comedians, singers and dancers of whom they have read much, but have never had the pleasure of seeing work.
---
With three theatres in the Harlem section, where colored people reside in large numbers, owned by promoters with the same names, many are of the opinion that a close corporation has been formed and that all three theatres are owned by the same individuals. However, such is not the case.
When Martinson and Nibur, the liquor men, decided to go into theatricals on a larger scale than running the Crescent. Theatre made arrangements to build an up-to-date theatre on Seventh avenue, between 131st and 132d streets, which, when finished was named the Lafayette. A few weeks before opening the Lafayette Theatre, Martin-
son and Nibur sold out to Joseph Martinson and John B. Friob. The former is a brother of Henry Martinson of Martinson and Nibur, but is said to have invested his own money in the proposition.
In the Lafayette Theatre company there is a stockholder by the name of Ostreicher, who has been associated with Martinson and Nibur in various enterprises. When the Franklin Theatre was opened some weeks ago with Mat Ostreicher, as manager he made clear that he was not the Ostreicher connected with the Lafayette Theatre. However it is said that the two are related.
So many references are made of the Martinson, Ostreicher and Niburs in connection with the three houses that the theatre-goers in Harlem are mystified as to who is who.
If all of the parties are interested in the three theatres they should give up managing and take up the stage for a living, for they could enjoy great success as actors. Doubting ones should hear the other Martinsons and Ostreichers since Martin Nibur and Henry Martinson gave out in The Age that they were going to make the Lafayette Theatre a colored house.

CRESCENT THEATRE.
From now on performers will have to do but four shows daily at the Crescent Theatre. In the past every act was compelled to entertain five times every day—two shows in the afternoon and three in the evening. The new policy will be hailed with delight by performers, as five shows per day means an expenditure of much energy. The management should be able to get more good colored acts by reason of the change. The Crescent has not been packed and jammed for weeks as on Monday evening. J. Leubrie Hill's Dixielanders were the magnet. This big act is a strong drawing card. J. Leubrie Hill has taken a bunch of raw material and developed some of the girls into coming performers. He has a number of good-looking misses who dance well and several of them in time will be able to handle singing numbers alone. Several of the young men who dance are not coming. They have already "arrived."
Monday evening's performance was marred by one of the young comedians springing a gag in the first which was as raw as uncooked chopped beef. When "called down" by the management and Mr. Hill he innocently remarked that the could see no harm in the vulgar joke. Irresponsible performers should stick to their original lines. The plantation number was the best on the bill. Owing to the success of the Dixielanders they have been held over for the entire week.
FRANKLIN THEATRE.
The Franklin Theatre presented an even bill the first half of the week, and several new vaudevillians appeared to good advantage. Jones and Jones are young performers who should develop into finished artists. The male member does several clever bits, although he "messes up" things by calling his pretty partner a liar on three different occasions, which is not allowed in "polite vaudeville." Then his make-up is out of keeping with the act. He would be stronger without cork, or if he has to use cork why whiten mouth and eyes? The young lady is said to be new in the business, but she does not give any evidence of it.
Lillian Brown, with a vigorous soprano voice of pleasing quality, has three songs, but her selections could be better. The last song went the biggest. Allen and Wright have returned to Harlem after a short absence. The act is stronger in singing than in comedy. The bill was opened by Crosby and Williams.
Jackson and Williams and Benton and Samura were on the bill the so-called half of last week. Jackson by a big deep voice, which he uses effectively. He should not be so true to life with his linen, especially his apron. Miss Williams does not sing but she possesses some histrionic ability which should be encouraged. The male member of Bonny and Samura should appear in comedy attire throughout the act. The young lady is prepossessing in appearance.
CHICAGOS TAGE NOTES
(BY SYLVESTER RUSSELL.)
The resignation of Will Dorsey as leader of the Monogram Theater, after four years of steady service, furnished the big surprise of the week, owing to his popularity as a director and arger, and the fact that he has accepted a position in a white music hall less prominent for a man of his rank Horace George, the clarionetist, is now leader, but George Reeves still remains as trap drummer.
Monroe Tabor, the yodler, and Fred Greene, comedian, made a big hit in their new act at the Grand.
Billy Cumby, indeed a great comedian, was the big Monogram scream, assisted by Corinne Letcher, a very good looking singing and dancing soubret.
Anna Cook Pankey's solo work went great, and Goldy Crosby scored in ragtime songs.
Grant and Jones open at the Grand February 20.
Shelton A. Brooks was injured while participating in a pool tournament last week and took to his bed. He and Clarence Bowen, his latest partner, had cancel eight weeks on the big time or account of the accident.

**Lloyd Writes About Lincoln.**
To the Sporting Editor of The Age:
Knowing that you are sporting editor of The Age, and as you know if I had made any changes in my team I would have set out known as, I have in previous years, some reports about the Lincoln Giants. I notice that some sorehead has tried to knock the Lincoln Giants and also the manager in an indirect way through your paper of the week of January 30 by saying that the Lincoln are playing in a league in Havana, Cuba and have some Cuban players instead of their regular.
I wish to make it known that the Lincoln's only played fourteen games in Cuba and they were during the month of December, 1912. These six members of the Lincoln's, namely, Redding, Williams, Poles, Gans, Francis and myself were signed up to play with the Ft Club, which is owned and controlled by Cuban promoters. Santop is not here on any slick list as has been stated.
He has been at his home in Fort Worth. Tex., since the first week in January, and I judge from the letters I have been receiving he must be in pretty good, health. All the men who will play with the Lincoln Giants the coming season and all other, seasons I have received the only ones that are satisfied are those who themselves slipping. Any man will yell when he fell himself going. A good ball player did not have to write to anybody but his manager for satisfaction. The only players I have had any trouble with are those I let go, as all the good players must be satisfied unless I could not be retained as manager. I will be in New York again this season and will lead the Lincoln Giants to victory over every other colored team. I pay my team on the first and fifteenth of each month and therefore I am compelled to have their services. When they get so they can't deliver the goods I am just like any other manager who has a winning team—pin the pink slip on them when they don't want to. He will have a good or better team than ever and no Cuban will be added either.
Thanking you in advance for what
ever space you may choose to use,
am respectfully,
JOHN H. LLOYD
Havana, Cuba.
HOWARD'S POSITION
To the Sporting Editor of The Age
I have read carefully the reply of Mr. Morris of the Montecito basketball team to my letter of January 23. I do not wish to extend the controversy but I do wish to take him to account for some of the said statements which he makes and then to further prove my claims against Littleton. Mr. Morris proudly devotes his better to recrimination rather than retaliation. For Tilmanne style, the letter is a masterpiece. Its author takes the course, which marks the true demagogue; he attacks me rather than what I say. I take no offense, however, at his personal and malignant statements concerning me. I look on them simply because of the fact that he not wholly incapable of delicacy, but who, under the heat of passion, gives vent to the lower side of his being.
Now to the real argument: Mr. Norris begins his letter, "Since Howard has torn the veil of privacy from our negotiations etc." He intimates that on making our negotiations public we have betrayed their confidence. Now let me tell you that any two individuals or any two sets of individuals enter into any correspondence of whatever nature makes that correspondence private. The privacy of it however, does not necessarily make it confidential. Tearing away the veil of privacy, as he terms it, the United States Senate used in exposing corrupt judges in four highest courts and removing them from their judicial power; it is a method by which those persons, illegally elected to the United States Senate, are brought to light and eliminated from that August assembly. We may not, therefore, be altogether inconsistent when we use this same method in disclosing the stably business dealings of a cold-footed basketball aggression.
He then goes into a discussion of the official record of the gentleman who acted as referee in the Howard-Monticello game of last year; but in spite of all Mr. Norris says about him, this is what he said about himself to the captain of the Howard University team, when questioned about some bad behavior made him do not these rules. I am played as a sub-judgement on the University of Pittsburgh basketball team but I am not up on these rules."
Mr. Norris further asserts: "We told Mr. Nixon in December and continued to tell him all along that we would not play in True Reformers Hall." If they did tell Mr. Nixon this in the middle of December, they did not tell him through their correspondence with him. The very first inquiry they make about a hall is in their letter dated Pittsburgh, December 21. In it they simply question whether they played "the game." Their final declaration that they would not play in True Reformers Hall came in their letter dated Pittsburgh, January 10. We then makes the statement: "After they had been assured that we would not play in True Reformers Hall they wrote us saying that they had secured the white Y. M. C. A. hall." This statement is absolutely false. We mentioned to them nothing about a white Y. M. C. A. hall nor did we notify them by letter about the hall we had secured. We sent them the following telegram: "We secured the 12th Street Y. M. C. A. been in city. Will you come?" We responded that we had been on January 13 received this reply: "Hall unsatisfactory." He says that he doubts if we ever negotiated for another hall. I simply refer him to the secretary of the 12th Street Y. M. C. A. Washington, D. C.
Let me go back at this point and give the original proposition to which
Pittsburgh agreed. On December 3 we wrote them offering to play them in Washington on January 17, in Pittsburgh on February 14, and in the event of a tie, to play them on some neutral court. On December 7 we received a letter from them saying that they were more than play them in opposition and asked that we send them it contract. They mentioned nothing about the hall. I give here a part of the contract, all the articles of which had been discussed an agreed to by the management of the two teams:
To whom it may concern:
The Monticello Athletic Association of Pittsburgh. Pa., agrees to play a series of three basketball games with the Howard University basketball team under the following conditions:
At least one game shall be played in Washington on the night of January 17, 1913, and one game shall be played in Pittsburgh on the night of February 14, 1913.
2. That in the event that each team wins one of these games, a third game shall be played in the city drawing the highest number of paid admissions.
3. That in the event of a third game, arrangements shall be made at the close of the second game.
5. 6.
This contract makes two games, at least, one in Washington and one in Pittsburgh, necessary. I want, therefore, to ask Mr. Norris these questions: Going to Pittsburgh would be handicapped in playing on court, would not she have considerable advantage when playing on her own court? Again. In the event that each team triumphed by reason of its familiarity with its own court, would not a neutral court prove a fair test for the relative strength of the teams? He says that I complained of the Pittsburgh court and he then goes on to tell how it is managed and how it is handled. I do not understand of the court, for I am not acquainted with it, built it, or what takes place there. I simply said that it is no better than True Reformers Hall for basketball and I still insist that it is not. He describes True Reformers Hall as having "posts on the floor, with lights and ceiling low." There are posts on the floor to be sure, but they are on the boundary lines of the court; not once in a half dozen games do the light interface with throw, and when they do the will take place, they are on the law of reaction, a course which Howard players are no more able than their opponents to determine; as to the ceiling, it measures forty feet from the floor; if this is too low for Pittsburgh, then she is high minded indeed.
He says, "Howard shaughters every team she plays in True Reformers, not so much on account of the inability of her team to win the hall." If he will carry his investigation a step further he will find that every team, save one, that Howard has 'shaughtered' in True Reformers Hall she was beaten by a larger score in the game. That would be "as Mr. Norris well knows, would not give us a return game."
The gentleman teaches the climax of his fury in his attack on me for my remark relative to the question of Howard playing against club teams. The facility with which he handles the mother tongue in this Concert places He resorts to the trick of the iridium who goes to the lible and picks out certain disconnected passages of Scripture to help him in attempting to substantiate his argument against Christianity. He would abuse the ammunity of all clubs against Howard University by taking only half of what I say and for me into such interpretation as will allow in Christianism to see the brutality of Howard. I do not question that he must be insulted to the local town or the institution of the Montclair or other school. Personally, those who compete in the Montclair do association, are conditioned on the best rank and culture. What I do question is their sportive skills, and on this point I do not mention that for fear of readiness that he had to be missed by Mr. Norris comment on my reference to them I spoke here my remark in full, and leave it to them good judgment to get the point, which he obviously missed. I said, informatively for Howard, there are not enough representative schools among Narrers, playing basketball, Howzow or any other Narrer school team. In order to keep up the sport she has had to rob the games on clubs some of which have nothing to lose in breaking faith.
Had the Monticello been connected with some representative, school the school could have been brought to account, for its reputation would have been at stake. I wish to state that this is in no way meant as a reflection on all clubs, for some men who represent clubs are of a much higher order than some individual men, in schools, for example, in high schools. We have had to deal have been perfectly straightforward in all their transactions with us."
"Now a final word, Mr. Norris says that Pittsburgh is anxious to meet Howard on a neutral court. Mr. Nixon wrote them some time ago offering to play them in New York but they have never seen it to answer that letter. A New York promoter has written us asking our consent to his negotiating with Pittsburgh for a game between New York and Pittsburgh. We have authorized him as far as we are concerned, to go ahead. As to just what extent he has been able to induce Pittsburgh to play we are now waiting to hear."
We are willing here, and now to let the dead past bury its dead. We with the kindest feeling toward Pittsburgh want her to meet us on a neutral court. When and where shall it be? Yours truly.

ORAL MYGIENE
In the previous brief article we reached the point where the preservation of the teeth and other oral structures come directly under the care of the dentist. It might not be out of the question that much of the preexistence of enlightening the public on this subject rests with them. The physician by virtue of his mission, "being the first to greet us and the last to take leave, following us through life guarding us against danger and warning us of pitfalls," has to protect his patients the necessity of protecting themselves against gill infections.
Returning to the subject, let us imagine that we have passed from the infant to the schoolboy age. This is the mouth exert the most marked effect or influence upon the health and life of the child. It is the time when ear troubles, throat affections, dislocations, and other injuries are marked. Partial deafness, hypertrophied tonsils, adenoids and eye troubles are often the results of unhyknotic mouths. For illustration, the lower jaw is suppressed by the muscles of the nerves; this nerve is again divided, one branch coming forward to supply the lower teeth and the other going backward to the ear, thus connecting the nerves to the muscles of the abcesses of the lower teeth, pain is transferred to the ear, giving rise to carache and sometimes abscesses of the ear. In a similar manner the nerves distributed to other organs about the face.
There is close connection between sore throat or diseased tonsils and an unyspherical mouth. Fifty per cent of children with sore throat also suffer from throat infections. There is not a single case of adenoids on record that is not indicated in the month and facial expression. The mouth breathing of the child is not throat and malposed teeth are directly traceable to this source. These local conditions brought about in many instances by neglect and ignorance, are many children are classed as backward or stupid when they are not responsible, but rather the parents have included their duty to the child at an early stage. In one of the schools of New York City (not officially) a number of children suffering from adenoids were carefully observed and grinded. It was found that they were not up in their mouth and did not suffer from this disease.
Operators have been known to spend many weary months in adjusting appliances of torture on their patients, with trying to bear the burden of proper care and a recent expression of the face when the same and, in fact, better results would have been accomplished by nature had the diseased adnoids been removed at the proper time. These conditions are very common among them are the germs of the oral cavity, a part of oral hygiene with which you are familiar. The average mouth harbors about twenty different germs. Most dangerous among them are the germs of the oral cavity, which enter the stomach through such a mouth has to run an awful risk. Think of mashing and mixing our food with all of these germs and decayed matter around and in rotten teeth. It is no wonder that we have a gastrointestinal and stomach troubles. Along with this there are numberless cases of sponky, diseased and bleeding gums from which pus exudes that mix their poison with the saliva that enters the food. But while the stomach when bored of being fed on such unwholesome diet?
It is estimated by various writers that ninety per cent of all the diseases from which we suffer enter the system through the gums and teeth, a gateway to health or an harbor of disease. Conditions such as have been described are not to be marveled at when we remember that only about fifteen people out of every hundred use toothpaste, and only one tooth brush serves a whole family. Just a word of advice—them aware that advice paid for is more highly priced. "Prevention is better than cure." Diseases may be prevented by using toothpaste by beginning early can do more to preserve the teeth and keep the mouth in order than the dentist. Get a tooth brush and a toothpick, a little preciated chalk or common tibble, paste the pick between the teeth, pass the pick between the teeth, and massage the gums with table salt.
