Andrew Memorial Hospital Dedicated Last Friday A $50,000 STRUCTURE Granddaughter of Massachusetts War Governor Responsible for one of Finest Hospitals in South NOTABLE MEN AT DEDICATION Special Trains Bring Trustees from New York and Chicago—Dr. George Hall on "Function of Negro Hospital." Special to THE NEW YORK AGE. TUSKEGEE INSTITUTE, Ala., Feb. 25.—A $50,000 hospital, to be known as the John A. Andrew Memorial Hospital, was dedicated at Tuskegee Institute Friday, February 21, at 4 p. m., before a large and representative gathering. The hospital, which is one of the finest in the South, is the gift of the grand-daughter of the War Governor of Massachusetts. One special train came from New York, bringing the Hon. Seth Low, chairman of the Tuskegee Institute Board of Trustees and other New York trustees, while another brought Julius Rosenwald, the Chicago philanthropist, who is a trustee of the institute, and his party. The interesting program included addresses by Mr. Low, Principal Booker T. Washington, Dr. John A. Kenney, medical director of Tuskegee Institute Hospital; Dr. George C. Hall, of Chicago; Dr. U. G. Mason, of Birmingham, Ala.; Dr. W. A. Warfield, surgeon-in-chief of Freedmen's Hospital, Washington, D. C., and others. During the meeting of the National Medical Association last August 524 patients were treated and some 25 operations performed in the small hospital of the Institute. It is now planned to have another such clinic in connection with the dedication of the John A. Andrew Hospital, which is in many respects, one of the best fitted hospitals in all the South. The clinics are to be held under the directions of Dr. John A. Kenney, the Institute medical director, and operations will be performed, remedies prescribed, etc. by the physicians above named and by Dr. C. V. Roman, of Nashville. Teen, specialist in the treatment of the eye, ear, nose and throat. Dr. See, O. Hall Sprake "The Function of the Negro Hospital" was the subject of an address delivered by Dr. George Hall, of Chicago, who said: After the Ark of the Covenant had crossed over the Jordan in safety, Joshua the great leader of his people, commanded that twelve stones he set up at Gilgal as a memorial—saying that this may be a sign among you, that when your children shall ask their fathers in time to come saying, "What mean ye by these stones?" This magnificent memorial of stone is a sign that an eminent citizen distinguished by his labors and services in high places died leaving an inheritance of courage and undying adherence to principle, that has caused his fame to be perpetuated in a useful institution. In a period of change who serves his country through a time of crisis, who leaves his country in a moral or material condition in advance of where he found it—such a man's position in history is secure, if in addition to this, his spoken or written words possess the subtle quality that carries them for, and lodges them in posterity's hearts. And, more than all, if his utterances and activities are tinged with the glow of human sympathy, the fame of such a man will shine in a beacon through the "mist of age" and in a revelation of love and of love. That should be to us an occasion of menia pride, that in one of the occasions of our history, such a man was not depicted no. "In every burial place are monuments of marble and granite erected to the memory of someone whose name is to be remembered by posterity; as if aborning the idea that virtues and deeds are to be left to the descriptive ability of the engraver and stone cutter, nature sends forth her agents whose purpose it seems to urge to erase the inscriptions, and to admonish us that mere stone and inscription perpetuate a name—they represent a kind of human—and pass like a picture. A monument grand and imposing, fitting for one who died full of years and honor, whose influence upon the lives of the living has left inscriptions upon the hearts of the man and woman it has helped to a fuller life, and to an agent of actual power, an instrument for achievement, to keep in mind the faith and virtue of the one who passed before. Nature works in sincerity, and is ever true to its law. Every thought and action, each according to its kind. In the individual man, and still more, in a nation, a just idea gives life and progress, and glory; and at a time like that known glory more than marble and granite and that more mortal can be more than shadows in pursuit of shadows. How great a thing were man, if there The New York Age. were not within him that which is higher than himself; if he could not master the illusions of sense, and discern the connection of events, by a superior light that comes from God. To what lofty purpose a man has lived, how well he has shown the divine impulses, when he has left to his descendants the power to subject interested passions to love of fellow man; and personal ambitions to the enmoblement of their kind. Purpose and influence of Hospital. "If I should say of the John A. Andrews Hospital, it is of stone, cold stone, and describe its architectural beauties, and should neglect to speak of its noble purpose and influence upon the health and happiness of a large class of people, whose health problems are largely unsettled and unsolved. I would fall in my message to-day. The functions of a hospital cannot be computed, its range of action is theoretically and practically as wide and as deep as man and nature. The noblest privileges and greatest duties find their basis here. The influence of these institutions upon all fields of human action are indeed obvious. The citizen who desires order and purity community in which he lives, the philanthropist who under all conditions regards the highest welfare of the human race; the Christian who urges the fullest growth of the soul, must look with peculiar solicitude to these institutions; the vital connection between man's interdependence upon each other and the general health of the community is now more clearly realized than ever before. "I immediately following the announcement a few weeks ago that a cure for tuberculosis had been discovered by a German physician, an offer of a million dollars was made by a philanthropist for the cure of 100 cases in America. Truly mankind the world over was never more earnestly stretching, forth its bands in sympathy with human suffering, nor busier with works of mercy than now. "My friends, when I consider the magnitude and importance of the subject before us: of the many topics of discussion that grow out of it: when I think of how much must be left entirely unsaid; I beg of you to take what I may do—to draw a suggestion—a suggestion to turn the functions of the Negro Hospital, and leave it to the elaboration of your own thoughts. Value of Hospital to the People. "To realize the urgent need of such an institution as this located in the midst of a large Negro center, have but to provide the care more urgent to ent in the Southland over one million and a half people afflicted with preventable diseases, mostly hook worm and malaria, with tuberculosis and pneumonia adding to the list. A tremendous problem confronts us! The Negro hospital plays its part in the solution by furnishing a place where the necessary information and efficiency are acquired to pro SAYS RACES DEPEND UPON EACH OTHER Clark Howell, Editor of the Atlanta Constitution, Addresses Negroes—"Good and Bad Among All People," Declares Journalist. Special to THE NEW YORK AGE. ATLANTA, GA., Feb. 25. On a visit to Atlanta University, in company with other white men, Clark Howell, editor of the Atlanta Constitution, emphasized the mutual dependence of the white race upon the black race. He declared that if the city homes, white and black, were kept as clean as the buildings of the school the mortality of the city would be reduced by more than half. Mr. Howell said that education was a good thing for all creatures and all people of whatever race. That among all people will be found two distinct castes, the good and the bad. The party visiting the school consisted of Judge W. R. Hammond, Clark Howell, J. K. Orr and Dr. C. B. Wilmer. Each one of the party made short addresses to the students, Judge Hammond emphasizing the importance of individual responsibility and the too frequent tendency of people to shift the burden upon someone else. READY FOR INAUGURATION. WASHINGTON, D. C., Feb. 26.—Preparations for inaugural week among the colored people of Washington are complete. Indications are that the crowd this year will be the largest ever entertained by this city at any previous inauguration, not outstanding the fact that a Democratic president is to be inducted into office. The program, in brief, for the week will be something like this: Monday night, ball of the Comus Club, Auditorium, Eighth street Northeast. Tuesday night, banquet and reception at Y. M. C. A. in honor of Bishop Alexander Walters, Tuesday night, balls at the Auditorium, Old Fellows' Hall and other places, Wednesday night, grand ball of the Citizens Inaugural Welcome Club, Convention Hall Thursday, conferences of Negro Democratic League and the National Civil and Political League, Friday night, smoker for visiting gentlemen by Mu-So-Lat Club, True --- LIBRARY TO BE DEDICATED.

Talbert Tells of Aunt Harriet's Condition VERY FRAIL AND FEEBLE Mind of "Grand Old Woman" Clear, and She Appreciates Visits of Friends—Was a Woman When Stars Fell. Special to THE NEW YORK AGE BUFFALO, N. Y., Feb. 26—Mrs. Mary P. Talbert, President of the Empire State Federation and chairman of the executive board of the National Association of Colored Women, visited Harriet Tubman at her home in Auburn, N. Y. Lincoln's birthday and found the "grand old woman" very feelible and a shadow of what she was one year ago. In relating her latest visit to the home of Harriet Tubman, Mrs. Talbert writes: "It might be interesting to members of the Empire State Federation of Women's Clubs to know how Aunt Harriet is getting along these days. It was my pleasure to visit her recently, and I was indeed surprised to note how very feeble she was—frail, emaciated and bedfast. She is but a shadow of what she was one year ago. I took pleasure in observing that her mind was clear, and I was pleased to know that she enjoys visits from her friends. "Her room, thoroughly sanitary—white and immaculately clean—was brightened with flowers. The room is kalsimson white, and the furnishings are white enameled. As I bent over to listen to her feeble voice, she bide me thank the women who were helping to make her last days on earth comfortable. The home is compelled now, due to her feeble condition, to have a nurse who looks after Aunt Harriet alone. Was Born About 1815. "I said to Aunt Harriet 'This is Lincoln's and Douglass' birthday; have you any idea what season of the year you were born?' 'No,' she replied. 'I don't know when my birthday comes. I only know when the New Year commences. I am one year older and one day nearer home.' She also said when the great shower of stars fell in 1833 she was a full grown woman and was hired out to do laborious work; hence it is more than likely that time. "After telling me of some of her remarkable escapes, and there was a pause in the conversation, she smiled and said 'I've been firing up a long time for my journey, but now I'm almost home. God has shown me the Golden Chariot, and a voice spoke to me and said, 'Arouse, awake, sleep no longer, Jesus does all things well.' "After a moment's hesitation she continued, 'Tell the women to stand, together, for God will never forsake us, and finally, half dozing, as I shook her hand to say good-bye, she smiled that peaceful smile of hers and said, 'I am a peace with God and all mankind.'" Money is needed to help Aunt Harriet in these last few days. The home furnishes her with room and board free. Her expenses comprise salary and board for her nurse, medicine, doctor's fees, delicacies, equipment for the sick room and laundry bill. The weekly expense for her nurse is $4 salary and $3 board, making $7 a week. Other expenses make the cost of maintenance $10 a week or $40 a month. She receives a pension of $20 a month, thus leaving $20 a month to be secured by the board. USE Thoro THE SANITARY SOAP POWDER Olive Oil and Corn Meal cleans the skin THORO'LEY.

Work Estimates Total Wealth of Race—Negroes Now Edit and Publish Four Hundred Papers—Negro Farmers in the South Cultivate, One Million Acres. Special to THE NEW YORK ACK. TUSKEGEE, AEA., Feb. 25.—The total wealth of the Negroes in the United States is estimated at $700,000,000 by Prof. Monroe N. Work, in charge of Research and Records at Tuskegee Institute. In the January number of the Southern Workman Prof. Work tells of what the American Negro is doing for himself. Special emphasis is placed on the race's advancement along religious, educational and economic lines. The religious progress of the race is shown in the accumulation of church property which amounts to $57,000,000. The churches contribute nearly over $100,000 for home missions. The Negro Baptism carry on work in five foreign countries, in which they have established 132 mission stations in charge of 97 missionaries. The African Methodist Episcopal Church has mission work in eight foreign countries and has two Bishops in Africa. The African Methodist Episcopal Zion Church is doing aggressive work in Africa and the West Indies. Thirty-five thousand Sunday schools are in operation, with an enrollment of one and three-quarters million pupils. 1,700,000 Enrolled in Public Schools. The educational advancement of the race is indicated in Prof. Work's article by the statement that 1,700,000 Negro children are enrolled in the public schools and 100,000 in the normal schools and colleges. Thirty-one thousand Negro teachers are employed in the public schools, and 3,000 teachers are employed in the colleges and the normal and industrial schools. There are in the South at present 50 colleges, 13 institutions for the education of colored women, 20 theological schools and departments; 3 schools of law, 5 of medicine, 2 of dentistry, 4 of pharmacy, 17 state agricultural and mechanical colleges and over 400 normal and industrial schools. The value of the property now owned by institutions for higher and secondary training of the freedmen is more than $17,000,000. In 1912 over $4,400,000 were expended for their higher and industrial training, and $8,600,000 in their public schools, a total of $13,000,000. There are 40,000 following the professions, including teachers, preachers, laymen, doctors, dentists, editors, etc. and there are some 30,000 engaged in business of some sort. Negroes now edit and publish 400 newspapers and periodicals. They own 100 insurance companies, 300 drug stores and 20,000 grocery and other stores. There are 300,000 or more working in trades and other occupations requiring skill—blacksmiths, carpenters, cabinet makers, masons, miners, engineers, iron and steel workers, factory operators, printers, lithographers, engravers, gold and silver workers, tool and entery makers, etc. With 3,950 colored persons in the government postal service, there are 22,440 in the employ of the United States Government. Some 1,000 or more patents have been granted to Negroes during the past year. They have invented a telephone register a hydraulic scrubbing brush, a weight motor for running machinery, aeroplanes, an automatic car switch and an automatic feed attachment for adding machines. They have established 64 banks capitalized at $1,000,000 doing an annual business of some $20,000,000. The Penny Savings Bank of Birmingham Ma. at the close of business in August, 1912, had resources amounting to $477,000. Perhaps the most significant product has been made in agriculture. Negro farm laborers and Negro laborers in the south cultivate approximately 100,000,000 acres of land, of which 425,000,000 acres are under their control. Negroes now own 20,000,000 acres of land合 together to 31,000 square miles. In 1863 the total wealth of Negroes in this country was about $ 700,000,000 Now their total wealth is $700,000,000 RABBI TELLS NEGROES TO EMULATE THE JEWS Says Don't Believe Everything a White Man or Woman Does is Right RACE LACKS FORESIGHT Rabbi Alexander Lyons Thinks That Money and Morality are of Prime Importance in this World. At the regular monthly public meeting of the Manhattan Branch of the V. M. C. A at the Abyssinian Baptist Church, in West Forteth street, Sunday afternoon, before a large audience Rabbi Alexander Lyons, of the State Street Synagogue, Brooklyn, delivered an address on "If I Were a Negro." He spoke in part as follows: First, if I were a Negro I should contort the conditions which the Negro confronts with the same fortitude and determination with which they have been confronted by the Jews, in other words, I would be content to be the thing which God Almighty had made me. Therein many Negroes are at fault. I believe God made a variety of races for the same reason that he made a variety of other things—because similarity begets monotony. Since you are Negroes, be Negroes. I have only contempt for the Negro who, because he is a little lighter in color, looks down upon other Negroes who happen to be a little darker in hue. Either a man is a Negro or he is not a Negro, no matter what his color may be. Moreover, I should not be like many Negroes who try to imitate white people. Don't make the mistake of believing that everything a white man or a white woman does is right simply because he or she is white. "In the second place, if I were a Negro I should try to have something to show for my energy. That is, I should be careful to save as much as possible of my wages. I say this because too many of our Negroes are inclined to be thriftless. The race is often accused of a lack of foresight. They spend their money too freely and too thoughtlessly. Some Negroes, as soon as they have earned a little money, lay off and spend it in order that they may go to work and earn a little more. Save your money. If you cannot get your names on the signboards of Broadway you may yet be able to get them on the side streets. "Finally, if I were a Negro I should so deport myself that no one could point the finger of scorn at me. Two things in this world are of prime importance—money and morality. And then I should see to it that, so far as is my power lay, every other Negro with whom I came in contact deported himself with credit. For if one Negro goes wrong he becomes a stumbling block to the entire race. The same is likewise true of the Jew. "The Negro race is peculiarly endowed. He is physically and musically blessed, and has wonderful patience. Don't envy the white race because you are not white, but love and cherish your own. Be patient, capable, and brave. Be good Christians but don't be so Christian and so soft and jungle as not to stand up for your rights when you are sure that right is on your side." SUBSCRIBE OVER $30,000 KANSAS CITY Mo. Feb. 25. In the campaign margined by the Negro citizens of the city to raise money for the erection of a Y. M. C. A building, over $30,000 was subscribed within two weeks. The city has promised to give an additional $50,000, and Julius Rosenfeld of Chicago has pledged $25,000. PRICE { THREE CENTS IN Greater New York FIVE CENTS everywhere else in U. R. A. Conference of Social Workers Hold at Salem M. E. Church—John M. Royal, Miss Martha Greuning and Mrs. Cecilia Holloway Cabinise Among the Speakers. The Conference of Social Workers among Girls and Boys, an affiliated organization of the National League on Urban Conditions Among Negroes, held its first public meeting Thursday evening, February 20, at Salem M. E. Church. The large audience displayed keen interest in the subject under discussion, namely, "Housing Conditions Among Negroes." The speakers were Miss Martha Greuning, assistant secretary of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People; John M. Royal, a successful real estate broker in the Harlem district, and Mrs. Cecilia Holloway Cabinise, wife of Dr. James Cabinise, who was formerly the student field secretary of the National Board of the Y. W. C. A. Miss Greening spoke on the growing tendency in large American cities to segregate colored people into given districts, and the necessity of checking the evil. She also touched upon unfair treatment accorded Negro land buyers in the South and the efforts of the National Association to correct this evil. Mr. Royal treated the subject under discussion from a landlord's and real estate man's point of view. He emphasized the point that housing conditions among colored people of New York City had greatly improved during the past few years, and said that this condition was in the main due to the coming of the colored real estate agent in the community. He thought that there was no appreciable difference in the scale of rents for property of the same class whether occupied by colored or white tenants. Mr. Royal encouraged the buying of property by colored people and said that this was one of the sarest remedies for offsetting prejudice. Scores Objectionable Tenants. Scores Objectionable Tenants. Mrs. Cabiniss took as her subject "The Moral Obligations of Tenants." Her major premise was that evils of a moral nature exist in apartment houses. She spoke of objectionable tenants as a menace to the proper rearing of children of respectable families. She said that their gilded lives, their seeming pleasure, flashy clothes and air of prosperity created a false impression in the minds of the young people. Mrs. Cabiniss suggested that it was better to burn (Continued on Page 2) WOOD CENSURED BY BROOKLYN DEMOCRATS Regular Colored Democratic Association of Kings County Adopts Resolutions Protesting Against Discharge of Langston and Robinson. A resolution consulting Robert N. Wood, leader of the United Colored Democracy of New York, for securing the dismissal of Ralph E. Langston and Andrew M. Robinson was adopted at the regular meeting of the Regular Colored Democratic Association of Kings County, held Tuesday evening at the organization's club rooms, 417 Carlton avenue, Brooklyn. Two-thirds of the enrolled colored Democrats of Kings County were present. Many who made speeches declared that Wood was injuring the Democratic party by playing petty politics. The resolution: WHEREAS, it has been called to the attention of this Association that two sterling Democrats In the person of Ralph E. Langston and Andrew M. Robinson, former Deputy State Superintendents of Elections, were removed from their positions because of the loyalty to our National Leader Bishop Walters, and because of the interest they took in the organization of the Wilson Colored Democratic Club of New York, to support the candidacy of Hon. Woodrow Wilson, for President of the United States, this incurring the displeasure of Robert N. Wood of the Manhattan colored organization; and WHEREAS, the methods adopted to secure the removal of Mr. Langston and Mr. Robinson were unfair and undemocratic and the representation made to enforce their removal, to wit; that they failed to give or contribute to the Democratic organization was false and untrue. BEIT RESOLVED, That this Association registers its protest against the removal of Messrs Langston and Robinson and deplores the fact that the Democrats of Manhattan sustain a harrowing belief that the elements to be acted as was demonstrated in the last election. RESOLVED, That Bishop Walters be requested to place Messrs Langston and Robinson in such positions within his gift as their talents merit, and that a copy of these resolutions be forwarded to the Hon. Charles E. Murphy. Wesley L. Young, who is the colored Democratic leader in Kings, County, and who is a deputy in the office of the State Superintendent of Elections, was among those who favored the adoption of the resolution. Not only are the colored Democrats of Brooklyn opposed over the dismissal of Langston and Robinson, but in New York the colored Tamammites and Wilson men do not hesitate to criticize Wood's actions. A highly political war is threatened. GIVEN SEAT ON SCHOOL BOARD Dr. James F. Bourne Wins a Long, Hard-Fought Fight at Atlantic City MEMBERS MANDAMUSED Supreme Court of New Jersey Issues Writ Directing White Members to Recognize Negro LEGAL STANDING ESTABLISHED Board of Education Has Been Seeking to Keep Dr. Bourne Out Since Last July. Special to THE NEW YORK ADP ATLANTIC CITY, N. J., Feb. 26.—The Supreme Court, sitting at Trenton, N.J. has upheld former Mayor Harry Bacharach's appointment of Dr. James F. Bourne as a member of the Atlantic City Board of Education. The bitter fight over Dr. Bourne's appointment, which started last July, came to an end last week when the Supreme Court, acting upon the application for a writ of mandamus brought by Dr. Bourne, ordered the Board of Education of Atlantic City to permit the colored member to take his seat. The order of the Supreme Court which was a big victory for Dr. Bourne and the colored citizens of Atlantic City decides a controversy involving the right of former Mayor Bacharach to appoint Dr. Bourne a member of the Board of Education. Dr. Bourng was appointed by Mayor Bacharach on July 16 at 10 o'clock, shortly before the Commission Government became operative. Mayor Bacharach retired by moon. The other members of the board objected to Dr. Bourne solely on account of his color. As the colored citizens of Atlantic City are aggressive and fight for their rights, it was decided to take every legal step to thwart the plans of the white members on the board. Last July after Dr. Bourne had received his appointment he attended a meeting of the board, but was refused a seat on the ground that the appointment was illegal. The matter was then taken to the Commissioner of Education for settlement. At a hearing Assistant J. D. Betts heard all arguments and a few days later rendered a decision declaring that Dr. Bourne was entitled to his seat. Not being satisfied with the decision of Assistant Commissioner Betts, the members took an appeal from his ruling to the New Jersey Board of Education which also decided in Dr. Bourne's favor. When the Atlantic City Board of Education met Friday, January 17, the members again refused to seat Dr. Bourne who then instituted mandamus proceedings to compel the board to seat him a once. Counselor Isaac H. Nutter and ex-Judge J. J. Crandall represented Dr. Bourne and admirably handled his case throughout. It is said that quite a sum was spent in resisting the efforts of the white members to keep Dr. Bourne from taking his seat. Dr. Bourne conducts a drug store at 1801 Arctic avenue. MANY ILLEGAL ARRESTS. detected by THE NEW YORK AU ATLANTA, GA, Feb. 25.—Ten indictments have been returned by the Fulton County Grand Jury to Judge George L Bell of the Superior Court, upon several charges growing out of recent startling exposures of the illegal arrests of Negroes in this county. The charges were impersonating an officer, making illegal arrests, serving a warrant known to fraudulent, and extortion. Among those indicted are a lawyer of this city, former justice court bailiff, and a bailiff in the office of the city court solicitor. It is said that the state of affairs revealed to the grand jury indicated convincingly that thousands of dollars have been taken from Negroes in and around Atlanta during the past year or so by illegal arrests. Judge Bell stated that he had no idea who else might be involved, but that the Grand Jury should sift the matter to the very bottom. The court, he said, would vary the customary procedure in these cases and the he would require that bonds, as well as securities relating to them, must be approved by him. FARMERS HOLD BIG MEETING.

Bishop Henry McNeil Turner of Georgia, Senior Bishop of the African Methodist Episcopal Church, has tendered his resignation as head of the work in South Carolina to the Council of Bishop, in session at Charleston, February 12, and the resignation was accepted. Bishop Lewis J. Coppen of Philadelphia will take over Bishop Turner's work, in which there are a thousand charges. Bishop Turner is eighty years old, which would be a reasonable time for a man to retire from the active work of the ministry, but Bishop Turner is still full of mental and physical vigor, and, like the late Bishop Daniel Alexander Payne, has some old time notions about ministerial responsibility and conduct that have steadily lost ground in the Church since the death of Bishop Payne. In every District Conference the numerical growth and spiritual well-done of the membership and the intellectual and moral fitness of the minister are no longer the paramount questions, but, rather, "How much money have you raised?" "Are you a good pastor for the Bishop to squeeze when he visits your charge?" There are exceptions, of course, but the late Bishop John Wesley Gaines was the type of the new spirit which has run out the old. This is no imaginary picture of danger. The whole business was threshed out in the Presidential campaign last year, and the radical policies prevailed in the November elections overwhelmingly as to leave no doubt of the revolutionary, the iconoclastic temper of the American electorate. With William Jennings Bryan, the stormy petrel of portunism as Secretary of State, and Senator Hoke Smith of Georgia as leader and shaper of Democratic policies in the Congress, the nation has a great deal to dread, but the Negro has a great deal more, as the vulgar, scandalous and revolutionary attitude of the Democratic majority in the House of Representatives have made plain in the measures introduced and the harangues delivered upon them since the November elections concerning Negro citizenship, and that, too, while the Senate branch and the President of the United States were yet in power to checkmate such legislation. When they have everything after March 4, from the Presidency to the spittoon cleaner in the corridor, what has the nation, what has the Negro, to expect of them? When they crack the bull whip will President Wilson jump to the sound thereof? Will he cringe affirmatively to the vital proposition, "Shall the South Rule the Nation?" In his Staunton address he gave notice to men near him and likely to be in his official family that they would have to learn some things as to the attitude of the government toward the governed, the people, that they are now ignorant of; in his administration of the affairs of New Jersey as governor he has imposed his will unqualifiedly on the Democratic leaders, and in his campaign letter to Bishop Alexander Walters he took such advanced ground as to the Negro and his rights as a man and citizen as to disarm criticism, and to leave no doubt in the minds of any as to his feelings and attitude toward them. It is not surprising, therefore, that the good Bishop Turner decided to relinquish the active work of the Bishopic because of dissatisfaction among his pastors over a dispute between Dr. McGill and Prof. Garnet of Allen University, and a letter the Bishop is said to have written to Dr. McGill. We are not acquainted with the character or meritus of the dispute, but we venture to assume that it was not of sufficient moment to drive Bishop Turner from active work, and to embitter his last days, after a life of able and earnest work to make the Church one of greatest and strongest in the life of his race. Bishop Turner is a diamond in the rough, it is true, but the times and conditions in which he wrought mightily in war and peace and in politics and Christian work required the rugged character and brilliant but variegated genius he possessed in such large measure. In his eviction to and industry in the work, a pastor and Bishop, he has always seen an African Methodist Episcopal every inch of him, spending and being spent in building the Church upon the rock in which Richard Allen planted in his blacksmith shop as a protest against the discrimination made by the white churches of the time against black Christians. His Bishopric was not taken away from him; he laid it down freely, with long years of good works added to it. For our part, we are glad he has retired from active work. He has earned release from the work of a thousand charges, which could not have fallen into younger and more capable hands than those of Levi J. Coppin. When a nation has settled, and right, a great question involving a great principle in governmental ethics, such as the question of human slavery and the relations of the freed people to the whole people, and clenched the settlement by adding three amendments to their written Constitution by a three-fourth vote of all the States qualified at the time to vote, a perpetual threat and running effort of those who were whipped to a standstill and forced by a vote of amnesty to take an oath of allegiance to respect the settlement constitutes a danger which has kept the nation in an uproar ever since the election of President Grant in 1868, as much before they had nothing up to 1876 as since when they have had all of the governments of the Southern States. Instead of confining the question of local legislation of the race questions to their Southern States, within the limitations of the Federal Constitution, they insist upon keeping up a running debate and threatened legislation in the two Houses of Congress, in this way stirring up and corrupting the national mind, putting father against son and neighbor against neighbor in the violent discussion of it and phases of it, and keeping all of the time the whole 10,000,000 Negroes in a state of nervous agitation and exasperation that deadens more or less all normal thought and effort on their part to make themselves the best sort of men and citizens. THE CABARET BLACKGUARD There are two things that we have found to be true, and on whose brow i'm writes no wrinkles, as Lord Byron apostrophyzed "grand old ocean;" they are (1) some men are born blackguardians, some cultivate blackguardism and some thrust blackguardism upon themselves and are prone to measure others by the blackguard's standards; (2) any blackguard can begin the publication of a newspaper if he has gumption enough to imagine "a long fett need" for it and cash enough to back up his imagination and feed the need. Such a man often creates a constituency out of the raw for himself and his newspaper, but it more often happens that he comes upon Shall the South Rule the Nation? President Wilson will be called upon to decide that question very soon after March 4. financial cramps on the Kings Highway and is attached up in a heap by the inexorable pains of them. Financial cramps have an inconquerable hatred of blackguards and blackguardism. Somebody has sent us the first number of The Cabaret, and Arthur Tilden Eagan, its editor, with this inscription, "Is there no editor who will answer this inscrastic? Not only postoffice employees, but the whole race is slandered," written over a Cabaret editorial under the vulgar sign "Our Nigger Post Office. What Arthur Tilden Eagan says in the which fellow Tilden might have been informed it, if the prisoners was on his aliphage. What is the governorate that Arthur Tilden Ragen has and gives in his Cohort? He says that on two occasions he married staff at Station I and at Station E which was delayed in the delivery, and when he "went to Station 1, after hours, and found all the clerks at work—some biggers, who gave him a tanner blank and "sent him out in the darkness to write against a nearby wall." Horror! Where did he want to write it, "after hours" and "in the darkness," on the clerk's hand by the light of his eyes? It looks that way. Dehps in the mails are among the most common and provoking occurrences under the New York skies, but the postal people do all they can to overcome them and the unreasonable captionsness of such blackguards as Arthur Tilden Eagan. As a clincher he says: The United States must be prepared to defend the nation against any question that this "threat the South holds the Nation" endows the thoughtful people of the country. This should not be so, but it is so. Mankind is not confronted always by the negative factor in their lives which swings relentlessly and destructively from right to left until all that they prize most is destroyed, unless the affirmative force in them is sufficiently strong and courageous to command and control the negative. The Democratic party has never been anything but a disturbing and destructive force in American life, from the dreadful, unstable President Thomas Jefferson to the scheming treacherous President James Buchanan, who in the face of the Slave Holders' War, scattered the national resources of defense broadcast over the globe, so that it may be truthfully said the third and fifteenth Presidents were the weakest and most dangerous, as the first and sixteenth were the wisest and strongest of the twenty-seven the nation has had. This has been true because the Democratic party has been dominated from first to last by the Southern States, whose principles of moral and economic administration have been radically different from those of the Northeastern and Western States: the latter being built upon free men and free labor and Christian Brotherhood, the former upon slave men and slave labor and Heathen Servitude. The two sorts of civilization have never prospered together in any period of the world's history. Our Post Office is full of MIGGERS put into their jobs of Republican politicians, because of the almost mortality of the MIGGERS EACK in the Republican movement. A lot of these POLITICAL MIGGERS are also active in politics active in Tammany Hall and Tammany Hall. Both conventions dealing with them after the fourth of March. Forty-eight years after the Slave Holders' War it should matter little to the people of the Republic what party faction rules it for a season, and they seemed not to think that it would when they elected Woodrow Wilson President, seeming to subordinate and hand up the question. "Shall the South Rule the Nation?" to President Wilson for answer. It showed on their part a confidence in the man that they showed in the case of Abraham Lincoln, in 1860, when they relegated to him for settlement the question, "Can the Nation Survive Half Slave and Half Free?" We know how much it cost the nation in blood and treasure to answer that question, and we know that President Lincoln had his life exacted of him for answering it for freedom of the slave and perpetuation of the Union; and we are still paying the debt in annual pension taxation fabulous in its volume. "Shall the South Rule the Nation?" involves the same principle but in different form as "Can the Nation Survive Half Slave and Half Free?" because the nation has no future but one tragedy after tragedy, such as befall Greece and Rome in the latter days, if the Southern methods of ruling by rough-shod methods and settling disputes between individuals, not by the courts of law, but by Courts of Mobs and Judges of Lynch, shall become national in principle. That it is becoming so is amply shown by the incessant conflicts between capital and labor, socialist agitation for changes of all sorts and in all directions, and the strength and growth of alleged Progressive party policies, which threatened to tear down the established system of government by written Constitution, with adequate checks and balances upon the several departments, all being coordinate but absolutely independent in their powers and operation, and substituting therefore government by plebiscite, popular vote of the mass of voters, with power of initiative, referendum and recall of all men and measures—government by the rabble. There are some Negroes in the New York postal service, quite a number, but every one of them got in by a civil service examination; and will be kept in by the civil service law, with which, and their appointments, "Republican politicians" had and have nothing to do. They are not "political Neggers" at all, but civil service apprentices, and are just as efficient and courteous as the white ones in the service. And what has Tammany Hall to do with the post office now, or will have after March 4? Nothing. It would be good for the Negro employees if it had. An Irish refugee in New York, who is at home every place on earth except Ireland, should be careful how he hurls his blackguardiauns at the Black First Settlers of the country. PECULIAR COLORED PEOPLE. Only a few years ago Hampton and Tuskegee institutes were, vigorously worked by a certain type of Negroes in New York because students from these influential institutions would, from time to time, sing old plantation songs before northern audiences. Several of the Negro ministers in New York City were actually afraid to have old-time plantation songs sung in their churches, although many enjoyed them, because a certain type of Negro criticised the ministers for permitting the rendition of such numbers. On January 12 a musical entertainment was given at Carnegie Hall, and plantation songs were sung and played by an orchestra of about 129 Negroes. The hall was not only filled, but by what is called the fashionable Negroes, to hear these plantation melodies. They said from $2 to $10 to hear the concert. What has brought about this change? Perhaps it is this: That the concert at Carnegie Hall was managed by white people, who have seen the value and richness of these plantation songs; and now that these white promoters have taken up the plantation songs, they have become immensely popular with the elite of the Negro race. DIVIDING HIS PARTY. It is difficult to believe that Robert N. Wood, leader of the United Colored Democracy, fully understands the logic contained in the oft-repeated saying, "In union there is strength." To judge from his actions, one even finds it quite a task assuming that Mr. Wood is thoroughly acquainted with the name of the organization of which he is the head—the United Colored Democracy. Since he has been chief of the local colored, Democracy Mr. Wood has done much to stir up internal strife in the ranks of his organization. Instead of trying to bring all warring factions together, his policy has been to drive them further apart. It is the wise and farsighted leader who seeks to calm the troubled waters and placates all disturbing elements. He knows he can wield greater influence by leading a united body and that a divided force loses much of its effectiveness. The zeal and energy displayed by Robert N. Wood in ultimately securing the dismissal of two prominent colored Democrats—Ralph E. Langston and A. M. Robinson—as deputies in the office of State Commissioner of Elections, will probably serve as a boomerang and react with telling effect, for it is said that the dismissal of these prominent Democrats was due to personal reasons. One of them aroused Mr. Wood's ire by becoming president of a Woodrow Wilson club, while the other is said to have "committed a grave offense" by attending a banquet to Bishop Alexander Walters. Has politics reached such a stage that one holding a political position must first obtain permission from leaders to attend affairs of a social nature? Has an officeholder any right to his opinion?

"A MODERN APOSTLE" Buffalo Minister So Characterizes Booker T. Washington to His Congregation—Negro Race Praised. Special to THE NEW YORK ACM. BUFFALO, N. Y., Feb. 25—In a sermon delivered recently by the Rev. Philip F. Frick pastor of the Delaware Avenue Methodist Church, the speaker characterized Dr. Booker T. Washington as the modern apostle, declaring that the rise of the educator, who was born in slavery, illustrated what progress a race might make if given an opportunity. The speaker characterized Dr. Booker T. Washington as the modern apostle, saying that the rise of the educator who was born in slavery illustrated what progress a race might make if given an opportunity. Dr. Frick said in part : "Measured by its vast consequence the emancipation proclamation promulicated by the immortal Lincoln stands pre-eminent as one of humanity's most stupendous documents. Through it a new era dawned not merely for the 4,000,000 black slaves, but for all the world. But the physical emancipation of the black man was only the first step in his real liberation. He could not be truly free until the shackles of ignorance and poverty and savagry and irreligion had been broken. No greater task ever faced people than is ours of being in the providence of God, guarding theeward race. Ours the sublime responsibility became into a full Christian citizenship. How velous the progress of this despised race during the first fifty years of its liberty History has no equal! Out of ignorance and squolar and inefficiency they have risen into a status, moral and intellectual and economic, that is the marvel of centuries. Noblest Representative "Pre-eminent among the Negro race stands Booker T. Washington. He is its noblest representative and its most inspired leader. What is possible for the race in America if given a Christian opportunity he splendidly illustrates Born in slavery, he has won the admiration of all men, and proven himself the guide to a people that sat in darkness. America has no nobler citizen. As surely as Moses was called by God to liberate Israel, so is this man called by the Highest to spiritualizing leadership over his people. "To him more than any single man in the Southland is attributable the new era of good will and mutual confidence between the white man and his black neighbor. With his common sense and sympathy and religion Prof. Washington has courageously begun the higher emancipation of his people. Tuskegee Institute is his remedy for the Negro problem. Out of its vice and squabble and inefficiency, only Christian education can bring him. His character must be ennobled to make him a good citizen and neighbor. In his race Washington has boundless faith, because he believes in the power of education to train hand and heart and mind. America may well thank God that among the visionaries and incendiaries who misunderstand and hate them there is this stalwart hero who can guide them into honorable manhood. No toiler for humanity ever approached his task with greater humility or vision or conservation; no subliter utterance, ever left from the lips of a man than this which Prof. Washington recounts spoke. If I had the privilege of re-entering the world and the Great Spirit should ask me to choose the people and the race to which I should belong. I would answer, 'Make me an American Negro.' If an effort you make presents a committee of one to work on your greater and one if you work induct them into the an online interest in our polished organized churches in this city? We have a expanded body of ministers in New York at present, and I believe they are all deeply interested and concerned in whatever movement is for the benefit of their use, but they need to have a broadened the most abject that they are doing nothing to help such charities as the W. W. C. A., the Hope Day Nursery, the White Three Home, the Working Girl Home and the Mission Rescue Home Mission. To whom and to what should these charities recommend themselves if not to our ministers and our churches? This is home missionary work. Simply a good word occasionally from them, while it helps, will not pay the rent. Most of these institutions are continually hard up, and it is a pangle to them each month as to how they will meet their running expenses. The twenty-five or so colored churches in this city can contribute something, no matter how little, to a general fund to be divided once a year among these worthy causes. Hundreds of dollars are sent to foreign lands every year by our churches, and while that is well enough it seems, however, like putting the cart before the horse to support missionary work abroad and letting it starve to death at home. I am afraid most of our ministers have been preparing us to die instead of teaching us how to live. Let them instead teach us how to live, then we shall be ready to die. If they do that, they will be the first to tell us that "by the use we make of our opportunities to serve our fellow men, not by our profession of faith, will we be judged," and these charities give us all an opportunity "to serve"—for which we live. Yours, etc. MAY MARIL FASHION'S TREND Spring creeps on apace and milady's attention is anxiously directed to "what's what" in the realm of fashion for the incoming season. Is the hobble skirt to go? Will the pannier be accepted, etc., etc. Says Vogus on the subject: "That skirts are fuller goes without saying, but let no one be deluded into believing that they are wider at the hem, for, with few exceptions, the width remains the same, and the fullness is given by overdraperies. Even the shinned skirt is never by any chance wider at the heels than are other skirts. At the knees this fullness, however given, disappears in a most mystifying way. Knife-plaited skirts are worn with separate coats, but one-toned suits are rarely made with plaited skirts. Tailored skirts are perceptibly wider above the knee, the width being achieved by the clever arrangement of seams and darts and plaits. "Tailored suits for morning wear are built on the same lines as the modish tailor suits of the late winter. The skirts remain rather narrow with no overdrapery, for the drapery is all in the skirt itself. "Coats are apparently to be either fairly long with tunics or godet plaits, or very short, with loose backs, and straight, under-arm seams; in most cases they follow the cutaway line. There is some talk of short shoulder capes, not only as trimming for the fitting jacket, but also for use as a separate wrap for street wear. The pictureque Russian blouse is being modified for summer wear, but it loses much of its cachet when the high, tight collar of fur is removed." TUSKEGEE HAS A NEW HOSPITAL (Continued from page 1.) tect the lives of those whose health problems are largely in their hands. It furnishes the young Negro physician positions as interior, the value of which cannot be computed, and from which they rigidly excluded from other institutions. "It emphasizes the value and importance of original investigation. It furnishes laboratory facilities, the lack of which makes it impossible for the Negro physician to do up-to-date work. It helps him by increasing his skill, expanding his knowledge, and improving his stronger, more useful man in his community. The possibilities of their work should not be judged by what has been accomplished, but by what they have shown may be done. The work they may do is practically unlimited; many of them beginning as private institutions, become temples of value to the communal where they exist, their first concern being the care of the fortunate brothers. They also keep in touch with, and encourage all efforts in the betterment of local conditions; teaching their patients the business of getting well, and keeping well, by the practical lessons in personal hygiene and home maintenance. Each patient remembers home as a missionary, touching his neighbor's sense of fresh air, sunshine, proper diet and right lying. Thus in an indirect manner a wide influence is exerted. "One of their highest accomplishments is their success in the development of men and women." The physicians and nurses engaged in the work recognize in it a field demanding the highest order of intelligence: individually they are stimulated by coming in closer touch with each other; the rural doctor and the city man, those who have not accomplished much, here learn to begin, and those who have done something learn how to do more and better; the information gained is made as widely known and as accessible to the public as possible. Henry Lambert War Governor of Massachusetts for whom Hospital has been named. "Grateful as we may be for this building, let us be still more grateful for his life, and feeling the influence of this stone, and stones each us bow a city, a life let stones each us bow a city, words of encouragement. The thousands of men should live. And we from time to time come to you boys and girls from the humblest paths of life, whose feet are striving in the paths of respectability, circumstances and risen from the humblest lot to the highest places of influence and honor." • MYSTERIOUS SECRET SUCCESS AT LAST How The World's Greatest Friend Gained Wealth and Pop A Group of Scientific Seers and At Last Perfected a Simple It Enables Anyone To Control the and Acts of Others Our wonderful book, describing these remarkable wonders WHO WRITE AT ONCE.

A few days later I found them tucked away in my machine drawer where one of the children had put them.

There is nothing slow about this act from start to finish. The diminutive Harry Reed gets better as a comedian all the time and Lawrence Deas and Miss Deas are very busy individuals while on the stage. Anyone who is of the opinion that Abbie Mitchell is going back should have heard her at the Lafayette Theatre. She has not been heard to such advantage nor has she looked so well for some time. In recent years Miss Mitchell has been unfortunate in her sections. However, the songs she acted at the Lafayette were admirably suited to her style of work. OUTLOOK MUCH BRIGHTER (JV. ESTER A. WALTON) JUST as we are having advanced evidences of approaching spring, such as the appearance on the streets of women arrayed in straw hats (despite the chilly atmosphere) and the large amount of baseball gossip now appearing in the daily papers, so are indications cropping up here and there which forebode that better times are coming by and by for the colored performer. Springtime for the colored artist, after a long, lean winter, or rather after several long, lean winters, is not due to arrive as soon as the spring of 1913; but those who follow the ups and downs of the colored performer, by putting two and two together, have good reason to believe that before long the colored thespian will come into his own. Then, instead of being a drug on the market, as has been the case for several seasons, we will be in demand; that is, those of ability and possessing modern ideas will be in demand. The fortunes of the colored performer seem to undergo a marked change every ten years. It was about twenty years ago that the colored song and dance artists first created a big stir in the theatrical circles, coming in on the crest of a ragtime and cakewalk wave. They had their inning and were much sought after until the wave subsided. It was then that the colored shows secured the spotlight, and the colored performer again basked in the sunshine of prosperity for a time. The ragtime craze has never been knocked out. It has been very groggy at times, but has always managed to get on its feet. Judging from the strenuous manner in which they are singing ragtime at home and abroad, this peculiar style of music once more is destined to enjoy widespread popularity for some time to come, and the popular taste for ragtime will surely advance the interests of the colored performer. Over in England they are being saturated with ragtime, especially in London. For the first time in years the foreign agents are looking up good colored singers and dancers, and quite a number of colored acts have been sent abroad. Many are to follow, it is reported. Only a few weeks ago the managers of the Alhambra Theatre, London, decided to produce a big ragtime number with forty colored performers. A representative was sent to New York to engage the people, and for a while it looked as if we were going to have quite an exodus of colored vaudevillians. According to latest reports, the proposition has been abandoned temporarily. This recent call for colored entertainers demonstrated one thing—that colored performers are not so anxious to leave for foreign shores as a decade ago. There was a time when it was an easy matter to get together a company of colored comedians, singers and dancers for Europe, but propositions "to sail" do not occasion the enthusiasm and relish as in the days of vore. There recently appeared in the daily papers throughout the country a vicious article which told of the flocking from this country to London of colored people in large numbers. The articles was inspired, and meant the colored people no good. None of these inspired articles ever do. The sinister motives are always apparent. According to the article in question the information had been received in London that colored people were coming to England in large numbers to enjoy "social equality." Londoners who have been shown by prejudiced white Americans that the height of the colored man's ambition is to sit and eat with white people need not become alarmed over the inspired article. In the first place, it takes more than $1.30 to go from the United States to London, and in the second place every colored person knows that it is easier to get three square meals a day on this side than in the land of King George. Our British brothers should always remember this one characteristic about his colored brother, and that is he is not so much bothered about with whom he eats as he is how often he eats. Within the next few months more colored Americans will be seen on the streets of London than for many a day, but their presence will not be because they are seeking "social equality." Their mission in England will be to gather in the towns, shillings and earthings, and as it is quite a distance from London to 135th street, no apprehension need be felt that after the engagements of these colored singers and dancers are over they will lay around and spend all their money indulging in "social equality." It is too far away from home. The demand abroad for blackface acts is great, and the leading colored and white teams doing black-face have been booked to appear in London some time during the spring or summer. An offer was recently made Klaw & Erlanger and Flo Ziegfeld, in which a London manager offered them $2,000 a week for the services of Bert Williams. The offer was refused. With this influx of black-face comedians the question arises. How much good are they going to do the colored citizens of this country in their exaggerated characterizations? If the stage type of Englishman is accepted as the real thing by thousands of playgoers in this country, it is quite probable that our black-face comedians, particularly the white ones under cork, will be regarded as typifying the real American Negro. While we have some promising young colored comedians who appear under cork, and while Bert Williams, is recognized as the leading artist in blackface, yet investigation will show that after Mr. Williams the other burnt-cork comedians of Broadway reputations are white men. This state of affairs is due, in the main, to the white comedian copying the work of the colored comedian, and then improving and elaborating on it. Of course, Bert Williams is such a great comedian that it has been difficult to imitate or improve on him with any success, but in many instances white comedians using cork have become students of blackface and have far excelled those after whom they took pattern. In the majority of instances a colored comedian relies solely on his native talcum, and does but little to advance himself in his line of work. This should not be the case. Being blessed, with much originality, he should study and strive hard to develop his gifts as a laugh-maker. What has kept the colored comedian in the field to-day is his action—something a white comedian under cork finds it impossible to acquire, because he is not a colored man. But, to use the words of David Copperfield, "I am meandering." I have strayed far, far from my optimistic prediction at the beginning of this article that there is every evidence that better times are coming for the colored performer. It is difficult to point to the calendar and state just when the joyful period will begin, but springtime is coming, nevertheless. WHERE THE SHOWS ARE. DR. BEANS FROM BOSTON CO.— Huntington, W. Va.

MUTTER CUM GOU GIN A Pen Review of Acts of Franklin Theatre. CRESCENT THEATRE In connection with the vanderville bill and motion pictures, Manager Friob of the Crescent Theatre is making a feature of a three-reel picture at each performance, and the innovation helps to make good business. The more one bears Frank Fowler Brown the stronger the impression grows that he should direct all of his attention to the opera. Possibly he would find it difficult to get a hearing in the United States, but this is not the only country where grand opera is produced. Under first-class vocal and dramatic instructors Frank Fowler Brown should develop into a tenor of renown. Allen and Morton are in their second and last week at the Crescent Theatre, and they continue to please in their laugh-making specialty. Taylor and Price returned to 135th street after several months' absence, and as usual scored in their dancing. FRANKLIN THEATRE. There was much variety in the bill at the Franklin Theatre the first half of the week. The feature act savored of the wild and wooly West. Two Indians and three cowboys did stunts with the lariat and revolver which made the Harlem tenderfoot look on with wonderment. Singers who know very little about enunciation should take lessons from Mattie Edwards. She knows how to put over a song in a telling manner. Here is the reason she gets good results. You can understand every word she utters. Rose Fox and her Dancing Boys, no longer Picks, offer a gingerly singing and dancing sketch. Miss Fox has some good dancers in her act. If she could get them to regard their work more seriously they would be far more valuable to her. The act closes with a dancefest which wins applause. Robinson and Askins open the bill in a song and dance specialty. LAFAYETTE THEATRE. Manager Nibur is planning to put on a colored stock company at the Lafayette Theatre, with Will Marion Cook as one of the producers. Arrangements have not been completed, but it is almost certain that the idea will be put into effect within a few weeks. The management will continue to present colored and white acts and motion pictures, and the stock company will give an afterpiece at each performance, holding the stage for about thirty minutes. There were several strong acts on the bill at the Lafayette the first half of the week and two colored turns carried off honors. Deas, Reed and Deas got the ribbon for comedy and dancing, while Abbie Mitchell easily shone brightest in the realm of song. King and Gee are at the Plaza Theatre. Murphy and Frances are at the Hesley Theatre. Peat and Hayes are at the Monticello Theatre, Jersey City, N. J. Davis and Walker are at Poll's Theatre, Springfield, Mass. Anderson and Goines are at the St. James Theatre, Boston. Gaines and Brown are at the Colonial Theatre, Haverhill, Mass. Miller and Lyles are at the Stockton Theatre, Sacramento, Cal. Bert A. Williams is with the Follies of 1912 Company in Baltimore. Parker and Dahney are at the Dream- D. Iand Theatre, Beverly, Mass. Michaels and Michaels are at the Orpheum Theatre, Sault St. Marie, Can. The Arntes—Billy and Gracie—are at the Rex Theatre, Winston-Salem, N. C. The Hillmans and the Tolliver Tricare at the Hopkins Theatre, Wilmington, Del. Copeland and Payton are in the Middle West. Next week Hamlin Theatre, Chicago. I Rosamond Johnson writes from Glasgow, Scotland, that the act of Hart and Johnson is a big hit abroad. The Gink Brothers, Grimm Sisters, Dunsmore, and Smiley and the Denslows are at the New Circle Theatre, Philadelphia. St Louis is developing quite a crop of song writers "Crappy Dan" is the latest song, by Charles A. Hunter and Artie Matthews, and "Mr Brown, Put That Music to Me" is by Oliver Starks. El de Costa, the efficient motion picture operator at the Franklin Theatre has become a vaudeville manager, and is now looking after the booking of the Muser. Perrin and Saparo and Stewart Company, Mattie Phillips and her Juncky Girls, Daisy Collins, Mine Dempsey and her Dancing Damsels and the Stewart Brothers are at the Auditorium Theatre Philadelphia. F. F. Miller at Miller and Lyles writes that he had the pleasure of meeting Don Wormiley, at one time a member of the Ruffs Rastus Company, and a mate of Washington, D. C. in Oakland, Cal. several days ago. Mr Wormiley is reported in good health. (BY SYLVESTER RUSSELL) The air was rent with friction when news was spread abroad that musicians of the Washington Theatre, named after Father George and Booker T. were called out on account of the dismissal of a white trap drummer, who had recently been taken in the colored branch of the union. It appears that a petition to substitute a colored cashier in the place of a white one was the main cause of the trap drummer's dismissal. The white girl had been discharged, and the management, in order to keep pace with colored sentiment, "canned" the white boy drummer in defiance of the union. The union lost because the leader of the orchestra had accepted the one week's notice unconsciously, and when he called on the union to save the white boy it was too late. Although the union called the orchestra out of the pit one night at 11 p.m., the matter was amicably adjusted and all is now quiet on the rialto of the stroll. Irving Jones and Bert Grant were headliners at the Grand February 20 and made an immediate hit. Rosa Lee Tylter, who returned from Honolulu with a male partner, did a good sketch which scored musically, including a Honolulu dance. J. T. Sadler and wife, of Seattle, have left for the Inauguration at Washington, D.C. They will go from there to New York City. Mr. Sadler is a retired singer, and formerly of the Black Patti company.

The Alpha Physical Culture Club's basketball team lined up against the Monticello A. C. in Pittsburgh last Friday night and trimmed them "to the queen's taste by the score of 24 to 19. The large audience present at South Side Market Hall expected to see the unbeaten home team dispose of the New Yorkers handily, but, lo! they were doomed to bitter disappointment. The Alpha team practised in such a business-like way and their rooters, including Mrs. J. E. Taylor, were so eloquent in cheers and songs that many, however, shook their heads and seemed dubious of the outcome. The teams decided to play National rules (dribble and shoot) the first half and A. A. U. rules the second. This gave the Monticelloos the first advantage, but they were outplayed at their own game. The Alpha forwards, Wiggins and Al Thomas, were too fast for the Pittsburgh guards. Capt. Goode outjumped and outplayed his opponent, and the guards Cliff Norman and Lucas covered up the opposing forwards so closely that they got few chances to shoot and This gave the New Yorkers more confidence, and although Monticello forged ahead at the beginning of the second half, Alpha developed a whirlwind attack which swept the Pittsburghers off their feet and assumed the lead, never to be headed again. The wonderful team work of the Alphas was a revelation to all, and the victory was well earned. Guard Lucas sustained a sprained knee during the game, but is rapidly recovering from the effects of the injury. The line-up: Al Thomas. Left Forward. C. Posey O. Wiggins. Right Forward. Norris (Rickman) W. Goode. Center. Hall Cliff Norman. Left Guard. Dorsey W. Lucas. Right Guard. S. Posey (G. Capers) Points by goals—Thomas. 8; Wiggins. 10; Goode. 2; Lucas. 2; C.

The Monticellos and their friends were loud in their praise of the Alpha boys, and among the many to congratulate them was Hans Wagner of baseball fame and a basketball player of many years' experience. There was a reception tendered the Alpha team and rooters Friday night, which was largely attended. The Pittsburgers outdid themselves in an effort to make things pleasant for the New Yorkers and see a mark for hospitality and generosity that will be hard to equal. Al Thomas, O. Wiggins, Capt. W Goode, Cliff Norman, Wm Lucas George Capers, also Dr. E. St. John A. Atkins, Gerald F. Norman, H. Ma son, Henry Wilson and R. L. Hutchins Big Athletic Meet. The largest athletic project ever fostered by a colored organization is now being engineered by the Smart Set booked to take place at the great douglas brooklyn boxing Wednesday evening, March 26. The entry of Howard P. Drew, of Springfield, Mass., the national 100-yard champion, has already been received for the 75-yard dish "special" for the H. Herm. Marian A. Metz trophy. Springing against this race will be six of the fastest sprinters in this country. Probably one of the greatest races of the year will be "The J. B. Taylor Memorial Quarter." A committee of friends, headed by Dr. Louis Baxtzer, a college chum of the late John B. Tayzer, will hold the first of the festival and costliest prizes ever placed in competition, dedicated to the memory of this famous runner. Detailed conditions of the race will be furnished at a later date to the public, but the trophy must be won three times by an individual, school or club in order to be selected. The trophies to compete in this race will be extended to the renowned "M.T.F. Shopard of the Irish-American A. C.: "Ted" Meredith of the University of Pennsylvania: Irving T. Howe of the Boston-English High School, who is said to be one of the greatest colored athletes in the world, "Gus" Bowser, the present New England quarter mile record holder; and several other stars. Monticello and Howard to Play. The much discussed basketball game between Howard University, Washington, D. C., and the Monticello, Pittsburgh, will be played at Manhattan Casino, Thursday evening, March 18. The rivalry between the two teams is intense and a large crowd of rooters from Washington and Pittsburgh is expected to accompany the teams. The game is to settle the much-mooted question as to which is the best team, and excitement is running high. The preliminary game will be for the lightweight championship of Greater New York, and will be played by the St. Christopher Tigers against the winners of the Speedboys-Laetitia game. Dancing will begin immediately after the game, with music by the New Amsterdam orchestra, with Wm. A. Riker directing. --- Avons Defeats Speedwells On Monday, February 17, the Avon and Speedwell Bowling teams started the tournament for the championship of Greater New York. The Speedwell bowling team was defeated by the Avons two games which places the Brooklyn team in the lead for the valuable trophy and championship. The team from Williamsbridge, N. Y., was handicapped by the failure of Mr. Snowden, their crack bowler, to arrive in time to take part in the match games, and by bowling on the home alleys. James N.

Booker 127 166 Total 520 621 Baseball Activity at Tuskegee Baseball prospects at Tuskegee Institute are commencing to assume favorable proportions. As in former years. Tuskegee intends making it extremely interesting for all colored school teams of the South. Last year the boys from Dr. Washington's famous school were undoubtedly the fastest aggregation of ball players ever represented on a southern school team. Her record is evidence of that fact. Out of eighteen games played Tuskegee was victorious in seventeen. Tuskegee has the nucleus of a fine team of the old men left in school. Captain Peek will undoubtedly hold down third corner, as his equal is not to be found among the southern teams. His ability to diagnose a batter, his fine ability and his personality ought to render him more valuable than ever. Samson and Sloan will probably be called upon to do the bulk of the pitching, with Watson on the receiving end. Howard at first and Sullins at second seem to be fixtures. Harper, a new man from Texas, has the ear marks of a good shortstop and ought to fill in easily at this position, the place made vacant by the graduation of Miranda. McColough, another new man, should develop into either a good fielder or first baseman. The other old men in the school are Gilmore, outfielder and catcher. Washington, fielder, and Dempstitute. Worthy of mention among the newcomers are the Porto ATTENTION PERFORMERS!

McPHERSON 1431 BRODWAY Ricans, Boones and Ramirez, who have played considerably on the island. Much is expected of them. Under the efficient coaching of T. Jarvis Taylor the Tuskegee nine ought to equal and surpass her record last year. Net Receipts $271.25.
