Leading Negro Newspaper CONVICTED MAN MISSING The indictment against Atkins alleged his conspiracy with L. C. Collins, secretary and P. Sheridan Hall president, to cheat and defraud Robert Stewart by selling him property in Rahway, N. J., which they represented to him was free and clear, and by giving him a deed upon his final payment which contained a statement that there was no mortgage on the property. These facts were soon established upon the trial, but in order to show Atkins' connection and to show that it was not an isolated case, the people proved about a dozen similar transactions. As the case progressed the testimony and documentary evidence became startling. VOL. XXVI. No. 23. ATKINS MUST SERVE SENTENCE Appellate Division Affirms the Judgment of the County Court Authorities Have Been Searching for Head of Metropolitan Mercantile Co. Since Thursday WHEREABOUTS UNKNOWN Appellate Division Also Affirms Judgment Against L. C. Collins, Who Will Take on Appeal. Since Thursday of last week the authorities have been looking for John H. Atkins, head, of the defunct Metropolitan Mercantile and Realty Company, but all efforts to locate him have been unsuccessful. The consensus of opinion is that he has left the State to escape serving a term of one year in the Blackwell's Island Penitentiary. Last week the Appellate Division of the Supreme Court affirmed the judgment of conviction of the lower court. No appeal can be taken to the Court of Appeals unless one is granted by the Appellate Division, which is unlikely. On April 24, 1912, Atkins was found guilty by a jury in the County Court. Brooklyn, of the charge of conspiracy to cheat and defraud. He was later sentenced by Judge Joseph L. Moore to one year's imprisonment in the Blackwell's Island Penitentiary and fined $500. Atkins appealed the case and did everything in his power to keep from serving time in jail, but the evidence clearly showed that he had been guilty of defrauding the stockholders of the Metropolitan Mercantile and Realty Company, of which he was the moving spirit. The judgment of the lower court was also affirmed by the Appellate Division of the Supreme Court last Friday in the case of L. C. Collins, secretary of the Metropolitan Mercantile and Realty Company, who was found guilty of larceny in New York County last Spring and sentenced to one year in the Blackwell's Island Penitentiary. Collins will take an appeal, as his case is different from Atkins'. Collected Over Half Million. The failure of the Metropolitan Mercantile and Realty Company, which occurred over two years ago, is said to have done much toward lessening the confidence of Negroes in business enterprises promoted by members of the race (over half a million was raised by the officers of the concern. The stockholders are still wondering what dissatisfaction was made of all the money). Unscrupulous Rahway Transaction. The story of the two Rahway lots is as follows Atkins arranged to buy the property through a man by the name of Wolfe, who was the printer of the realty company and who undoubtedly did most of the printing work for Atkins and his accomplices. Wolfe paid about $15,000 for the acreage and gave back a mortgage for about $0,000, the balance of the money being supplied by Atkins. Atkins took title at once in his own name and gave back another mortgage for about $0,000, making the total mortgages about $18,000. This was in 1907 and in 1911 a campaign to sell the property. Agents were appointed, the property and barbecues and hundreds of lots were installed plan at prices from $240 to $410 per lot. During the time the company paid the property and the property was paid on the mortgages. In 1908, 1909 and 1910, one agent alone turned in over $100,000 in sale of lots, on there was paid in the printed officers that with mortgages. In fact, by the realty title reciting mortgages on the dupes of press for payment of unpaid interest and instalments, and in February notified Atkins to pay up or foreclosure would ensue. Atkins, seeing the writing on the wall, begged him not to force close, but in March, 1910, foreclosure commenced and proceeded to a judgment, and sale in August, 1910. The entire tract sold for about $12,000, one-half of the price at which it was claimed Atkins paid for it, and about one-tenth the price it was claimed to be worth in Atkins' reports as treasurer. Even the foreclosure and sale, however, did not deter Atkins from taking the money of people who, not knowing the facts, continued to pay instalments on their lots. Receipts were shown to the jury that showed money had been collected and turned over to Atkins as late as October, 1910. two months after the property had been sold. SUNDAY SCHOOL PROTESTS SPECIAL TO THE NEW YORK AGE. Boston, Mass. March 4.—The Columbus Avenue A. M. E. Zion Sunday School of this city, at its regular session Sunday, adopted the following resolution, protesting against the obnoxious anti-intermarriage bill for the District of Columbia: Whereas, the National House of Representatives on February 10, 1913, by a vote of ninety-eight to twelve passed a bill making it a felony for members of the white and colored races to inter-marry in the District of Columbia, and Whereas, the said bill aims at personal freedom, and is distinctly class legislation, and an affront to the Negro race. We the members of Columbus Avenue A. M. E. Zion Sunday School, Boston, Mass., in Sunday School session assembled.

Resolved, that we solicit the influence and co-operation of every Senator to prevent the passage of the bill, and further.

Sr. Serial to TRE NEW YORK, AFS Oberlin, O.., March 4.—Under the Oberlin Women's Federation Club, Prof. Kelly Miller, Dean of College of Arts in Howard University, of Washington, D. C., gave a lecture on "Race Loyalty," in the Second Congregational Church, Monday, February 24.

WOULD NOT TEACH ADVANCED STUDIES Commissioner Biggs Would Change Curriculum at the Colored High School-Plan to be Bitterfly Op- posed. Special to THE NEW YORK SCE BALTIMORE, Md., March 4.—A proposition looking to the exclusion of languages and other branches from the curriculum of the Colored High School has been placed before the School Board by School Commissioner Biggs, who is a native of North Carolina. The matter came before the School Board last Wednesday asking the Board of School Superintendents to make an inquiry into the courses offered at the school. Among the branches regarded by Biggs as useless was commercial law. The resolution also says that the per capita cost of $71 in educating students at the Colored High School is too much, and asks that the careers of graduates of the school be inquired into. Commissioner Biggs also intimates that colored students are being educated out of their "station" in life. The suggestion was made that Booker T. Washington be consulted relative to the proper method of training the colored youth. It may be said in passing that Dr. Washington, responding in 1907 to an inquiry from the State Board of Education wrote that he favored industrial training, but not at the expense of literary training. The suggestion will meet with strenuous objection here, even from those who are advocating the re-creation of a separate manual training high school for colored boys. The Colored High School now has a curriculum on a par with those maintained for whites. New Property Located in Lenox Ave., Between 140th and 141st Sts. Church Boys Property as Investment with View to Furthering Project to Get a Farm for the Aged. St. Marks M. E. Church, 231 West 351rd street, the Rev. Dr. William H. Brooks, pastor, has purchased an apartment house in Lenox avenue, between 140th and 141st streets, at a cost of $54,000, which, with other improved city reality to be acquired, will be held as an investment. Eventually the whole will be advantageously disposed of, the proceeds to be used to purchase a farm convenient to the city, upon which will be established the projected Home for the Aged, which is in process of organization. At present the aged and infirm members of St. Marks Church are cared for either at their homes or in some of the hospitals of the city. Some of these are at the Lincoln Home, others are at other homes, and others are provided for at their homes in Virginia. A monthly stipend is paid them as long as they live, and provision is made for their burial after death. This work is under the supervision of the trustees of the church, but Walter E. Handy is designated by the board to have direct personal supervision of this phase of the church's activities. It is planned, in purchasing the farm, to make this feature of church work self-sustained. A truck farm will be operated, work by the beneficiaries of the church's charity, and such of the product as is not used by the inmates of the home will be sold to provide a revenue. Church Organized in 1807 St. Marks M. E. Church was organized in 1871, and has the unique distinction of never having a pastor who has not served his full term before being transferred. The three-year term for pastors was the rule in the first years of the church's existence, from 1871 to 1888, and during this time the pulpit was filled by the Revs William F. Butler, Edward W. S. Peck, Richard A. Read, William P. Ryder, and John A. Holmes. In 1888 the term was lengthened to five years, and this rule obtained until 1900. The Revs Henry A. Monroe and Ernest Lyon served during this period. Dr Lyon being succeeded in 1897 by the Rev. Dr William H. Brooks. In 1900 the time limit was taken off, and Dr Brooks has served as pastor of St Marks continuously since 1897, a period of sixteen years. There is nothing to indicate that he will be removed unless it is to be elevated to the Bishop's position. He has as his assistant his nephew, Howard A. Brooks. In 1900 the Newman Memorial Mission, Brooklyn, was brought into existence by St Marks Church, and for five years supervision of the work was maintained. After that time, the mission became an independent entity. Salem Church, Harlem, was reorganized by St Marks in 1902, and the alliance was maintained until 1912. The Epworth Mission, established, in 1905, was set apart in 1907. At the present time St Marks Church is engaged in the development of a mission in Williamsbridge, which was organized December, 1911. St. Marks Has Many Auxiliaries. The spiritual and temporal welfare of the church is well and amply looked after by the various auxiliaries. Some of these are composed of the women members, some of them by men, and others still are composed of both men and women. December 23, 1875, under the administration of Dr. Peck, the Mutual Aid Society was organized. This society provides a weekly benefit to the sick members of $4, and looks after burial expenses. The membership is not confined to the membership of St. Marks Church, though naturally the larger number of its members are communicants of the church. It has a membership of between one and two hundred, and there is in the treasury about two thousand dollars. While it is under the supervision generally of the church, the officers being installed by the church, the society is not controlled by St. Marks. It has an independent autonomy. Present officers are W. W. Johnson, of Mother Zion Church, president; Mrs. Susie F. Wilkerson, secretary; George Foster, treasurer. The Silver Spray Circle is composed of young girls, and was organized during the pastorate of Dr. Lyon. This organization furnishes a social medium for the young folks, cementing friendly association of the young folks. Frequent socials at which literary programs are rendered, furnish enjoyment for its members, and on every fifth Sunday through the year, the evening service of the church is in the hands of this circle, which renders the entire program. Needs all the money raised for the devoted purposes is furnished by THE MARKET MAN THURSDAY, MARCH 6, 1913. HON. FREED The New U.S. Minister to this club. The young ladies, after each service, pass quietly through the congregation with small jugs and contributions of a penny or more are solicited. In 1912 more than $400 was raised by the young ladies in this way. Mrs. Florence Bruce is president. Ladies' Aid Society Important Factor. The Ladies Aid Society is an important factor in the general work of the church. Through their efforts the interior of the church is looked after, as well as the formings. The work of the life and is much appreciated by the pastor and members. Officers of the society are: Miss Belle Johnson, president; Mrs. Mildred Turner, vice-president; Miss Emma Harris, financial secretary; Miss Kate Smith, recording secretary; Mrs. Louisa Freeman, treasurer, Isaiah Davis, chaplain. The Floral Circle was formed for the purpose of supplying flowers to the sick of the congregation at their homes or at hospitals, as the case may be, and to provide flowers for the church on Sundays. In addition to this the Floral Circle extends its activities to furnishing aid and assistance to the sick and distressed Its officers are Mrs. Alice Perkinson, president, Mrs. Hattie Hazel, vice-president, Mrs. Mildred Turner, secretary, Mrs. Ida Young, assistant secretary, Mrs. Susie Rice, recording secretary, Elias Tilleman, treasurer, Mrs. Eva Smith, assistant treasurer, Mrs. Emma Mitchell, chaplain. Organized in October, 1911, the Brotherhood has a membership of between fifty and one hundred. It conducts a Bible class for men in the Sunday School and provides social life for the men of the church. Regular dues are paid by the members, and sick and death benefits are provided. R. T. Browne is president; with J. S. Maxwell, vice-president; J. H. Thomas, secretary; Richard Mann, treasurer, and James Bishop, chaplain. One of the important features of the church work is the Lyceum, which meets every Thursday night and Sunday afternoons. At the Thursday night meetings, the program generally is made up of addresses or debates, while a general literary and musical program is furnished on Sunday afternoons. This organization is very popular, and splendid programs are the rule. Hayes L. Pryor is president; George Wilton Marshall, vice-president; Miss Louise Southall, secretary; J. Hanniel Thomas, corresponding secretary; Miss Belle Johnson, treasurer; Miss E. A. Jackson, organist; Mrs. Lizzie W. Mayfield, chaplain, Harold Simmelaer, critic. Good work along religious and charitable lines is being done by the Epworth League. It is in good condition the best since Dr Brooks has been pastor. L. S Reed is president. Ushera Have an Organization The Ushers Club composed of the authors of the church, has Daniel A Clark as president; Arthur Rice is vice president; James Johnson, second vice president; James A W Yupin, recording secretary; Charles Branch, financial secretary; John H. Pride treasurer; George Fox, sergeant at arms; James T. Harrod, chaplain, members are Andrew Vuston, William Heir, Moses Dougan, Washington Tyson, Jacob Griffith, John W. Christopher, S. A Barnett. The choir is said to be one of the best in Greater New York. A quartet of singers are employed, and a large volunteer choir supports. The choir is under the direction of H. Winnia jackson, chorister and organist. Each member of the quartet is a solist of distinction, and the (Continued on Page 2) NO RADICAL CHANGE TO BE MADE BY WILSON There Will Be No Sudden Dismissal of Negro Office Holders, as Expected Friends of Bishop Waters Do Not Refish Idea of Churchman Taking up Residence in Capital City. Special to THE NEW YORK ACT. WASHINGTON, D.C. March 5 - Matters here in Washington are now in the usual condemnation state. There is much excitement and much expectation. It is not too petulant conversion of those who seem to know most about matters from the inside. However, that President Wilson is not likely to make any sudden or radical changes in the personnel of the colored officeholders, that the most important colored men now holding office will be permitted to remain in their present positions for a considerable length of time. Bishop Alexander Walters with his family is located in Washington. Many people here who have the very highest respect for Bishop Walters regret that he has located here even temporarily. This expression has been made by some of the bishop's warmest friends and admirers. There are two reasons why they think the bishop has made a mistake. One is because they feel that he would have more influence and could accomplish more good by being away from Washington than he can by being in the hurly hurly of political excitement, that if he remained away and came here periodically when some important matters were to be considered he then would occupy a more commanding position than he would by being here on the ground where every little petty politician can get at him. The second ground for regret is expressed by not a few of the bishop's friends who feel that it is a serious mistake, for the bishop of a great church to place himself in a position where he will be held as a common politician. They feel that the bishop of a great church should hold himself aloft in a dignified position and should make politicians seek him rather than have him seek them. It is not an encouraging sight to see a bishop waiting around the office door of some white politician. It is hard for one to imagine Bishop Greer of New York permitting himself to be used in this way. Many express the idea that if Bishop Walters can enter into the hurly hurly of politics in this way other bishops can do the same thing, and if the bishop follows this course his ministers have a right to imitate him. Your correspondent does not write this with any wish or intention of hurting the bishop, but to help him. There is no place in the country where a man can become common so quickly as in Washington, and there is no place where every little fellow who thinks he is fitted for some office will impose upon a man more quickly than here in Washington. PRICE THREE CENTS IN Greater New York FIVE CENTS everywhere else in U. R. A. A PLFA FOR CHARITY Counselor Rufus L. Perry Tella Audience Negroes Must Give Charitable Institutions Conducted by the Race Financial Aid. Despite the inclement weather over three hundred persons attended the mass meeting Thursday evening, February 27, at Bethany Baptist Church, Brooklyn, in the interest of the Howard Orphanage and Industrial School at Kings Park, L. I. Counselor Rufus L. Perry was the principal speaker. Counselor, Perry emphasized the importance of Negroes giving their charitable institutions financial aid. He told of how Negroes in Brooklyn had given money to help white institutions only to be refused when application was made to have a colored person admitted as an inmate. Among the specific references made was in connection with a Catholic home for wayward girls, which bars delinquent colored girls. The speaker urged the Negro citizens to take time by the forelock and help maintain colored charitable institutions. He stated that of the $50,000 collected for the Howard Orphan Asylum last year the Negroes gave but $2,000. WOMEN DISCUSS LYNCHING. "Lynching" was the subject given consideration Thursday evening, February 27, at a meeting held at Concord Baptist Church, Brooklyn, under the auspices of the Northeastern Federation of Women's Clubs. Mrs. Mary Church Terrell was the principal speaker. Mme. Adena C. E. Minott, head of the Department for the Suppression of Lynchings of the federation, Miss Maritcha R. Lyons and Mrs. Mary C. Lawton also spoke. Mrs. Terrell expressed the opinion that the race is not as active as it should be in its effort to put a stop to mob law, and declared that the women should agitate the subject and make a more determined attempt to stamp out an evil which has been a disgrace to American civilization. EQUAL ACCOMODATIONS SPEECH TO THE NEW YORK ACK BALTIMORE, Md., March 4. According to a ruling of the Public Service Commission, Negro passengers on railroads and steamboats in Maryland must be given equal accommodations. The "Jim Crow" car law provides for equal accommodations. The decision followed a protest by Prof. Thomas W. Turner, who is now connected with Howard University, Washington, against accommodations on the Baltimore, Chesapeake and Atlantic Railway. ENTERTAIN SETH LOW. Special to THE NEW YORK TIMES Montgomery, Ala., March 4--A few days ago the local Negro Business League gave a reception to Hon. Seth Low, of New York City, in their league rooms. There were about two hundred of the leading colored men of Montgomery present. Mr. Low spoke to the members for about half an hour. In one respect the local league of Montgomery sets a fine example for local leagues throughout the country in that it has a fine room set aside for the regular use of the members. The league meets regularly and cooperates with the white business league. FRED R. MOORE IS SWORN IN AS MINISTER FRED R. MOORE IS SWORN IN AS MINISTER Publisher and Editor of The Age is Confirmed as United States Minister and Consul-General at Liberia—Took Oath of Office Monday. Special to THE NEW YORK AGR WASHINGTON, D. C., March 4—Fred R. Moore was sworn in as United States Minister to and Consul-General at Liberia Monday afternoon. He is in Washington receiving instructions from the State Department. The nomination of Mr. Moore was confirmed Saturday evening along with other diplomatic nominations which had been held up by the Democratic Senators for weeks. Saturday an agreement was entered into by the Republican and Democratic Senators to confirm all diplomatic nominations, which was done without much debate. The new United States Minister to Liberia is publisher and editor of THE NEW YORK AGR. During the last Presidential campaign The AGR was one of Mr. Taft's strongest supporters. On January 2. President Taft paid Mr. Moore a compliment by appointing him Minister to Liberia to succeed the late Dr. William D. Crum. Mr Moore is 55 years old. He was born in Virginia, but when an infant was taken by his parents to Washington D.C., where he resided until twenty-five years ago when he went to New York, where he has been prominent in political and civic affairs for years. He resides at 14 Douglass street, Brooklyn, with his wife, Mrs. Ida I. Moore, and family.

Telegraphic advices from El Paso. Tex., state that Mexican Federal soldiers and the famous Ninth United States Cavalry have had several encounters on the border and that the Mexicans have been worsted in every skirmish. The last engagement is reported to have occurred March 4 on the border line near Douglas, Ariz. Feeling in Douglas and Agua Prieta is extremely bitter as a result of these attacks on Mexican troops upon American soldiers The Mexicans taunt the Negro soldiers with jeers and epithets and there are frequent street fights. One cavalryman whipped five Mexicans for taunting him and the American citizens of Douglas cheered and refused to permit the colored soldier to be arrested. Practically all the troops on duty or the line have been put on guard and; rapid-fire gun has been mounted on the waterworks tower, where it will sweep the Mexican section from where the firing has been taking place. Six Mexicans Killed. The first encounter was on March 2, when three American troopers of the Ninth United States Cavalry who were guarding the line sighted the Mexicans about forty or fifty in number, and rode toward them to ascertain if they were in Mexico or the United States, as there is nothing to mark the boundary except monuments about every mile. When the American soldiers approached the Mexicans the latter opened fire. Hearing the shots, thirteen comrade of the Americans came to their aid and sent a carrier to Douglas, about two miles away, to notify the squadron commander. Soon the sixteen American troopers were reminforced by two full troops of cavalry and shots were exchanged for several minutes at a distance of about a thousand yards. Finally the Mexicans were driven off. An investigation showed that six Mexicans had been killed by bullets of the American troops. It is reported here that the fighting started when Mexican soldiers fired on four United States army officers who were walking together on the Mexican side of the line. They answered with revolver shots the bullets of the Mexicans, and soon colored troopers hurried to their aid. The subsequent engagement was short. Among the New York papers to launch the presence of the colored soldier in the United States army is the Eisenhower Telegram, which says under the caption "Ninth Cavalry Again." "Only a few weeks ago consideration was being given in Washington to a proposal to wipe out Negro command in the army. The battle on the border near Douglas, Arra, Sunday should tend to call attention to the value of the Negro as a soldier. The command involved with the Mexicans was the famous Ninth Cavalry, a Negro regiment with commissioned white officers, known up to the time of their colony's death as 'Ol Guy Henry's troopers." "It is one of the best getting regiments in the country."

JACKSON, 750 South 15th Street, Philadelphia, Penn. The Man Farthest Down By Author of "Up from Slacery," "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 Slacery," 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. With Frontispiece Map Net $1.50 Doubleday, Page & Co. n City nov. 7 th WILFORD H.

A BRAVE RULER Of the bravery of the Governor of Alabama we have had occasion to speak from time to time. Our regret has always been that with Alabama's ruler we could not also place side by side the Governors of the great States in the South in which we find a great Negro population, and therefore not only a situation of governmental delicacy, but also, and particularly, an opportunity for great public service and for that kind of courage needed by the strong when the strong is called on to bear the infirmities of the weak. Sunday before last, or maybe it was the Sunday before that, as our readers will recall, Booker T. Washington spoke the speech of his career at Montgomery, the capital of his State. How far-carrying were his utterances the news reports have borne witness. It was no drip-dropping, cap-busting declaration, but a statesman's plea made in a statesman's language. Gov. Emmett O'Neal was present, and after Dr. Washington's oration was called on. The Colored Alabamian, whose editor arranged the meeting, reports the Governor as having set the "woods on fire." His plea was not only for kindness, but for justice; not only for mercy, but for righteousness; not for toleration, but for exact equality under the law for all Abahamians, neither color nor race cutting either form or figure. He said the long-promised but tardy word to the white people of the South in declaring that the white man owed more in the matter of help and service to the Negroes of the South than to the poorer whites because the Negroes needed more of generous help and noble service from the best blood of the South. That is to say, the Governor of Alabama is an aristocrat and the Governor of South Carolina is a mobocrat, and the one represents the sweeping charge in the attitude of the best blood of the South toward colored men, and the other represents the expiring breath of calumny and race hatred that has held the winning hand in the politics of the South, and that, discerning the end, is fearful to God. When "the votes for women" marched out of Baltimore they were met at Winans, according to The New York Sun's report. February 29, "by a large group of Negro men and women carrying a big yellow banner, lettered 'Votes for Women.' The army received the greeting in embarrassed silence and slid through the village as swiftly as possible." Of course! Why not? Had they not been warned at Wilmington that Maryland was the enemy's country for them if they favored "votes for Negro women?" Had they not been treated as enemies from Elkton to Laurel? Women are not men; they are women! When men hand them the point of a sword or the edge of a razor for comfort they have not physical strength to match the brute force with the brute force. In such case, until they have become Amazons, things that are neither men nor women, they have to swallow their honest convictions and cringe before the male brute, as the women of Africa and the better part of Asia have done for ages and are doing today, if the male brute demand it of them, as those of Maryland did at Wilmington. Two hundred of the best white men and women of Alabama heard Booker Washington's message, and the happy comments of Gov. O'Neal. It was a great occasion, almost beyond our pen in comment—a sign that cannot be cut off. The Southern white mob wrathers will hang and burn a Negro woman as readily as they will a Negro man, and they are always ready to do it. They did a Negro woman that way at Houston, Miss., February 11, along with three Negro men, charged with the murder and guilty knowledge of the murder of a white planter. And the Governor of Virginia, late last year, refused to commute the death sentence to life imprisonment of the first woman hanged in Virginia because she was a Negro. The Negro women of the Southern States are compelled to wait in filthy waiting rooms and ride in filthy coaches with their men, with no privacy whatever and often with the vulgar intrusion among them of filthy white men, who go where and act as pleases them among Negroes, answering their own "what are you going to do about it?" as often with a blow of wrath as a smile of scornful contempt. We have witnessed the tragedy and been the center of it many times, and we know. It is making lions of Negro men and tigers of Negro women anxious to get at the throats of the dogs with the law on their side who do it. CHAUNCEY AND THE CAKE WALK The Hon. Chauney M. Depew of New York has been a charming and engaging personality from his youth up, and he is such now. He was a wit before he became a statesman, and a wit he is now, long after the flashlights of the Federal Senate have ceased to emphasize the bald spot on the top of his head where hair used to grow. The New York Sun records the following in the Vanity Fair of the day's doings of the world: Palm Beach, Fl., Feb. 26. "I have been watching this cake walking with a good friend, the turkey, addressing 1,500 people at the Pollinator cake last night. And I should say that the turkey trot was probably evolved interview with a dancing master recently in which he said, the trot was the only natural dance, all others being unnatural. It is not natural, then it is close to nature." Way down, three or four generations under them, every Negro man is a lion of Judah and every woman a tiger of Keturah when "roused up". Educate them, let them get them great possessions of land and money, let the numultiply from 20 slaves at Jamestown in 1620 to 4,500,000 at Appomattox in 1865 and to 10,000,000 as it is at this day, and they do not feel about matters as the slave felt. Far from it. They feel about the wrongs done, the insults heaped upon them, in high and low places, as free men feel. Those who proclaim it from the house tops, to serve a selfish purpose of the moment, that the Negro is satisfied with the conditions of law and public opinion forced upon him without his consent, are liars! He is not contented. He is discontented, and will grow more so with the years, as he increases in numbers, in That was some cakewalk, 15,000 people looking on. The turkey trot may be "as close to nature" as the vulgarity of Irish society can carry it, but the cakewalk will always stand beside George Washington and the stately Virginia reel as "the poetry of motion" and "harmony of sweet sounds." Long live the sedate cakewalk to shame the vulgarity of the turkey trot! REORGANIZATION OF THE REPUBLICAN PARTY. "For many inquiring weeks before March 4 the newspapers of the country were full of Washington correspondence declaring that "a movement is on foot to reorganize the Republican party." At this writing the movement is still on foot and shows no disposition to sit down. It is so with an army as grand as that Napoleon led into Macedow and Lee into Appomattox; there was a brave show going in, "so that all the world wondered," but a mighty bedraggled and confused show coming out, so that all the demoralized hosts wondered more at their coming out than the world did at their going in. The leaders of the Republican party, who refused to come to terms at Chicago for the good of the party, preferring to stand firmly by their personal interests and fame, were fore- party along progressive lines are new men, of the North and Central Western States, such as Senators Borah and La Follette and Gov. Hadley. The most important thing, they think needful to be done, or so they are reported, is to weed out Southern Republicans entirely in the national convention and committee, except as they stand for a white voting constituency. They would change the present apportionment by Congress districts to the actual Republican vote cast in, such districts at the last past election, as far as the Southern States are concerned. In short, they want to get rid of Negro Republicans, as being a drawback and hindrance to party success. Col. Roosevelt committed the Progressive party at its birth to that principle, while the Democratic party adopted it in 1875 and has been enlarging upon it ever since. This hall is opposed in any situation or movement that tends to or will degrade womanhood as the Queen of Hearts in the Christian home and the object of the mistested love, devotion and affection of the father and his sons and daughters. The Christian home is the first and chiefest of the fruits of the Christian philosophy, which is a vastly different thing from the Christian religion. Our laws give women all the protection they need as the wife, the mother and the daughter, and as wage-earners the laws are being everywhere shaped to give them the protection and consideration given to men. It is because we place such a high estimate on the position of the Christian wife and mother that we are opposed to any sentiment or movement that tends to lower the standard of womanhood. The suffrage movement among women in England and America is lowering the standard of womanhood. Whatever lowers the standard of womanhood must lower the standard of manhood. "For many longwishing weeks before March 4 the newspapers of the country were full of Washington correspondence declaring that "a movement is on foot to reorganize the Republican party." As this writing the movement is still on foot and shows no disposition to sit down. It is so with an army as grand as that Napoleon led into Moscow and Lee into Appomattox; there was a brave show going in, "so that all the world wondered," but a mighty bedraggled and confused show coming out, so that all the demoralized hosts wondered more at their coming out than the world did at their going in. The leaders of the Republican party, who refused to come to terms at Chicago for the good of the party, preferring to stand firmly by their personal interests and fame, were foredoomed to defeat, being divided into two equal parts, when the issues were joined in the November elections. The two wings of the party were bound to double up when the solid Democratic forces charged their center. That is what happened. What the Republican party could not do united, being more than half the American voters, it did divided, so that Col. Roosevelt fell flat on his back on the left and President Taft did likewise on his right, while Gov. Wilson and the Democratic party marched triumphantly through the center to the victory that will last for four years, if not for many more. Now the talk is for reorganization "along progressive lines." The Southern white man is nothing if not brutal. What he thinks he is always ready to defend with brute force rather than refer to lawful authority. His women of his family, to reduce the matter to the absurdity, are the only things in sight, and any man or beast, white or black or colored, who looks at them strabismically, or whom his women justly or unjustly accuse, must be murdered on the spot. This is the debasement of womanhood to idols of flesh and blood, not to love; honor and respect, but to worship; and as they, the Southern women, are also but human,—the same as Jacob's daughter Dinah, who made the Hebrew first "to stink in the land," by gadding about and getting into trouble, instead of remaining at home and attending to her half of the business of his male and female,—so the Southern white women have become by the uxoriousness of their men, a provocation to violence in the life of white men, every day in the year, in the Southern States, and the disease is rapidly spreading over the country. We say that Southern white men have ceased, if they ever did, respect womanhood; they idolize the women of their immediate family only. As for Negro women, one-half of them their sisters on their fathers' side, they do not respect them now that they are free and sold them when salves to pay their gambling debts. We know, as we are very much of it and they can't deny us without denying themselves. We shall hold them to it. It is the evidence of their filth, not of ours. And God, will hold them to it by the spirit law of even. It is useless for people to think that they can evade the law that as "ye sow so shall ye reap." We see every day the law remorselessly working in the lives of individuals and of nations,—from Mexico to China and from China to Bulgaria and the allied Balkan States. The Slave Holders' Rebellion was a bloody manifestation of it in our nation and the hard times we have experienced since 1907 a silent manifestation which has pinched every capitalists' money bags and every wage-earner's stomach. And the end is not yet. We must "do unto others as we would that they do unto us," or we shall be made to do so. The difficulty with the Republican party is that it is not only thoroughly demoralized, but it has no leader as resourceful and courageous as Col. Roosevelt, who stole Col. Bryan's Progressive thunder and then had it stolen from him by Gov. Wilson, who has so far shown that he is a match for the sharpers in his own party and in the Progressive and Republican parties as well. While he remains "of sound and disposing mind" President Wilson will have to be reckoned with, as so far he has the confidence of the people of 40 of the 48 States. How long he will keep it remains to be seen, but that he will run off his strike like an overtrained race horse is not borne out by his record as Governor of New Jersey. He has already in his Staunton address, given direct and emphatic notice to men like Senators Hoke Smith and Benjamin F. Tillman and Representatives Hardwick, Roddenbury and Hefflin, that they will have to subject themselves to the higher powers. They may not like it; neither did the Democratic leaders in New Jersey, but they had to do it. We do not imagine that the Democratic leaders in the nation are any stronger than the Democratic leaders in New Jersey. President Wilson has at no time since his election talked or acted as if he thought so. This fact should not be overlooked by those who are looking forward to a reorganization of the Republican party on progressive lines; nor should the other fact be overlooked that so much of "the Progressive lines" as President Wilson has not captured and holds in the name of the Democratic party Col. Roosevelt has captured and holds in the name of the Progressive party. The point: When General Rosalie Jones and her "votes for women." on the march to Washington, reached Wilmington, Del., they were waited upon by "a delegation of Southern gentlemen" who demanded to know is she was in favor of giving the ballot to Negro women. She told them that was a question for the States and not for her to answer. They were in manner satisfied, and told her pointedly and brutally, "Remember, if you are in favor of votes for Negro women you are to pass through the enemy's country." And it was so. From Elkton to Laurel, in Maryland, between Delaware and the District of Columbia, the hikers were treated by the white men, women and urchins of Maryland, as if they were "in the enemy's country,"—the brutal enemy who in all ages has degraded womanhood to the level of the beast and exalted the females of his harem or home to the position of an idol, to be seen only by him, to be loved in one moment as something more than human and abused in the next as less than the dumb beast! The Republican party cannot be successfully reorganized by "chasing with the Democratic Hounds and running with the Progressive Bull Moose," after the new-fangled theories of administration of the government that have none of small warrant in the Federal Constitution, and can be adopted only by revolutionary innovation that is just as liable to lead to governmental confusion as improvement upon the old order of things. The political condition of affairs is much like that of a battlefield on which the victors are uncertain of the results and the vanquished do not know which way to fly. The party that has the leader with the keenest wit, like the soldier with the sharpest sword, has the greater advantage for the time being. Mr. William Barnes, Jr., chairman of the State Republican Committee of New York, has pointed out the only way in which the Republican party can be successfully reorganized, by harking back to the bed-rock principles of the party and bravely antagonizing the new-fangled theories that have swept the nation off its mental feet and threaten to throw it on its back. We do not necessarily cling to old things, as an electric are light is as much better than a tallow candle light as an automobile truck is than a horse-drawn truck; but new things, like new people, have to be proved and reproved, and even then they often deceive the wisest and best of men. Sure, the Republican party in no way changed for the better after it shattered the question of human rights in 1876 and drifted into the control of the selfish monoyed interests of the country, from President Hayes to Senator Marcus A. Hanna, when government by party was wiped out and party by Hanna took its place and, finally went to smash in the last November elections. The men who are now talking most about "reorganizing the Republican We, however, know it to be true that the black mass of Republicans are as honest and faithful to the party as the white masses, and that the black leaders were as corrupt as the white leaders, as the votes the black leaders sold were bought and paid for by the white leaders, who controlled all of the offices and made all of the money to be made by "wise ones corrupt" out of party success and advantage. It is true, however, that the white leaders who bought the votes are rich in money and bankrupt in character, while the black leaders who sold the votes have nothing to show for it whatever and the honest black masses, who desired only justice in the administration of the Government and of the laws, State and Federal, are naked indeed, exposed and helpless to the cruelty and wrath of the Democratic enemy—of the Southern bloodhound sort that neither gives nor asks the Negro quarter. The Negro can have no healthy business development in a political situation where he has not ample protection of his life and property. White men stagnate in such situations. The terrorization that has prevailed in North Georgia and the Sunflower County districts of Mississippi for weeks in January and February, with the killing and burning of Negro men and women, and the destruction of their little property, and the growing tendency in the Northern and Western States to subject the Negro to class legislation, such as has been hitched upon him in the Southern States since 1870, "by and with the consent" of the Republican party in the Congress and the Federal Supreme Court, that have done nothing to stog it-or mitigate the exceeding hardships of it, acts as a dead weight on Negro thought and effort. And yet the nation expects the Negro to measure up to the full measure of a man and citizen, while being firmly held down and in terror of his life by class laws in the South and race proscription in the North and West. They who exact the impossible of their equals in the citizenship will have the impossible exacted of them by the Silent Witness in every transaction.

Address her in two of THE ACE. A RETRACTION (BY MAY MARTEL.) Last week I said that 'colored churches were supporting missionary work abroad and neglecting it at home. This applied especially to our organised churches which have rues to help from the churches. I am called upon "to eat my words," in part at least. I am glad to do it; in fact de-lighted, and hope that I shall have to continue in this until it is time to make a whole statement; I will give me indigestion, either. I am informed that Salem M. E. Church, of Harlem, and St. James Presbyterian Church, of West 51st street, have promised, monthly contribution to the Missionary East 513rd street, to help its work. We take off our hats to the Rev. Drs. Lawton and Cullen, and to their church officials and members; if we had a half dozen hats we would take them down to practical Christianity, and as an itsme the ministers lead the way. The intelligent and race-loving Negroes of New York are rallying to the support of Mrs. Robinson and this Home. They appreciate the splendid work they have done, and they are going to put their shoulders to the wheel and help. The white homes will not take colored girls of the kind the Home provides for in the numbers they are required to be accommodated, and it is up to the Negroes to do for their children. They are making the progress they claim, they will not shift the burden to white people as seems to be the desire of many who should know better. Since colored people are fighting for civil rights through the courts they must be willing to shoulder responsibility for themselves by shifting them to the race from which they are demanding these rights. The new Board continues to increase. Among its recent members are: Counselor Wilford H. Smith, Dr. Gustavus Henderson, Dr. J. R. Hillery, Mrs. Mattha Robinson, Mrs. Marie J. Stuart, Mrs. M.

Mason, financial secretary of Livingston College, North Carolina. Dr. James E. Mason, literary entertainment of the Lincoln Literary Union, who spoke on Lincoln. Dr. Mason was frequently applauded during his eloquent address. "No man ever assumed such a tremendous responsibility under such varied embarrassments as Lincoln and as signally triumphed. Coming to the highest office in the gift of a great success, and limited knowledge of statecraft were generally known. He was the victim of unspeakable rivalry and ridicule. While many hoped, few believed he had sufficient ability to cope with the reins of governmental affairs, seven Southern States had seceded from the Union. The social and political atmosphere surrounding him was seething with discussion, trenchments and fear, and yet previous two civilizations had their strangling for the mastery. While the country was apparently one, in thought it was practically two. The discussions in state and national legislatures the compromises, all inevitable differences. On the one side stood the South, aggressive and dominating, and on the other side was the unyielding North and West, who said of slavery as an institution. Thus far felt from their viewpoint the righteousness and justice of their cause. "This only added to the perplexities of the new President, kind, humane and generous. No one can read his first inaugural address without being married with his broad and catholicism. Summer within two months after his birth, but not the act of irresponsible, but the proarranged determination of men who believed they were right and were willing to seal their faith with blood. The echo of the first bullet was bound and the world. European government was in a state of war, the North was wild with amusement. Great mass meetings were held, in the principle cities. Men who for years had been political enemies suddenly friends. Democrats vied with Republicans in their protestations of loyalty to the Union in words of Daniel Webster. The Union, one and inexperiable, quickened the pulse of every true patriot. Thoughts and scenes of the fathers of the connexion came stealing over the loyal North. The strains of life and drum, the strains of life and drum, were more heard as they polarized the fathers to glory and to glory on the crimson field of Bunker Hill and in the fireworks streets of Lexington and Concord. All hopes of amicable adjustment took wings and departed, and a once united people stood face to face with all the horrors of a civil war. Amel the class and confusion no responsible individual was more calm as determined than President Lincoln first his apparent inactivity in forming certain conclusions occasioned in his cabin. He was illuminated and ridiculed by critics who accused him of or impaired what he carried his boss. He was committed to an unseen power and his patience was possessed his power. During the first year of his soul, he North Carolina was served in every im- migrant and in the world. It was being hul- nored to the world.

Drinking a great deal of water assists the glands in bathing to the waste fats and acids which it close to the surface of the skin. A bath brush is an absolute necessity to make a rough skin smooth. Its daily use will create a good circulation and make the skin active and healthy. DRESSING FOR BUSINESS. A business woman ought to dress in a businesslike way. "Peek-a-boo" shirt waists should be absolutely taboo, and coats and skirts should be of dark materials, made in neat and quiet effects. Such a style of dressing tends to cultivate a businesslike frame of mind, and indirectly to promote efficiency. When a girl goes to a store or office she is there to work, not on dress parade, and should dress accordingly.—Leslie's Weekly. The issuing of the Emancipation Proclamation proved a most decisive blow. To the slaves the proclamation came as the song of the angel choir to the shepherds upon the plains of Bethlehem. To thousands it seemed unreliable and their joy and thanksgiving were indescribable. Ranks of the slaves were confined. Confined trenches and building fortifications were daily decimated. Emancipated slaves soon offered their services and were accepted as Union soldiers. "The splendid behavior and heroic bravery of the colored troops at Fort Hudson and Fort Wagner and other centers of the army in the mountains of Leonidas at the Plaza of other moppele and the famous six hundred at Isaklava.

Hardly had years of rejoicing dried upon the ground, and the soldiers and brief bedlammed all eyes and filled all hearts. Lincoln was dead. The country stood appalled at the unwanton assassination. He who was dead in life was mighter in death, enshrined in the hearts of universal humanity. . . . . . "With the cessation of hostilities and renewed friendships, intermarriages were soon occurring between the commercial and the South. Their commercial and intellectual interwoven and inseparable.

I must begin to tell you all the benefits I have received since the arrival of the new members of Landstones you sent me. For many years I was convinced that no person lived who was more unfortunate than myself. Loss in business; death of loved ones and other troubles too numerous to mention, were driving me to a state of frenzy. A friend told me to write you for information regarding the system of two Loadstones and their power. As a 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.

CRESCENT THEATRE. The We Us Three, composed of Tom Cross, Mme. Fairfax and Harry Stafford, would be a big-time act if appropriate scenery was used and much of the unnecessary talk in the beginning of the skit about craps and policy was cut out. Tom Cross has a baritone whose voice is more melodic than Ms and play as entertainingly as any of the vaudevillians seen in these parts. Opera and ragtime look alike to her. Harry Stafford scores in his dancing and helps to harmonize in several of the vocal numbers. Tom Cross should use an older makeup. This act could be made a winner in two-a-day houses with a few minor changes. The We Us Three are at the Crescent Theatre for the week. The Cabaret Five have been doing cabaret work, and as there is quite a difference in performing off and on the stage they have not yet rounded out the act as smoothly as one might wish. However, it contains some good material. More attention should be paid THEATRICAL COMMENT (BY LESTER A. WALTON.) COMMENCING next week the Lafayette Theatre management plans to make a colored stock company the feature of the house's bills. About thirty colored comedians, singers and dancers will be used in the first production, and Will Marion Cook, the foremost musician of the race, will direct the orchestra and see to it that the singers dispense melodious sounds on the stage as taught during rehearsals. The debut of the colored stock company at the Lafayette Theatre is full of significance and means much to the colored theatrical profession, yes, far more than it does to the owners of the theatre. It is, therefore, incumbent on all parties concerned to put their shoulder to the wheel and strive to make the company's appearance a big success. Martinson and Nibur are young in the show business, mere infants, as it were, and they need advice relative to how a colored stock company should be successfully put on. This information can only be given by colored producers and performers who have been connected with colored stock companies in the past. Rector or Shanley may know how to run their eating places, but it takes a Charlie Henry to advantageously conduct a colored restaurant. If the owners of the Lafayette Theatre secure the best writers and performers available, and do not hesitate too often to lay out money for costumes and scenery, the presence of a colored stock company should mean a rush at the box office for some months to come. But good judgment will have to be exercised and the purse strings must not be too tightly drawn. The late "Bob" Motts some years ago crowded the Pekin Theatre at Chicago because he hired the best writers and performers obtainable. He would have engaged Williams and Walker if he could have secured their consent to play the Pekin; for he realized that the bigger and better the attractions the bigger and better the results. --- Down in Palm Beach, Fla., which is recognized as the most fashionable winter resort in the United States, the colored folk have a monopoly on the entertaining business. As soon as the winter season opens at Palm Beach hundreds of colored men and women go to this far-famed resort to make merry for the edification of the fashionable guests with the express view of accumulating as large a pile of Uncle Sam's currency as possible. In speaking of the activities of colored entertainers at Palm Beach the Palm Beach Daily News, under the caption of "Features Furnished by Colored Entertainers," has this to say: "If one ever stops to consider the various pleasures, diversions and pastimes that fill each day at Palm Beach, they will realize what an important factor the colored race plays. "The headliners are the Poinciana Glee Club, cake walkers, baseball nines, clowns and the caddies. "Each night the Glee Club are showing the advantages of practice, for their solo work and harmonizing is cause for congratulation. The new pianist and the drummer have made the 'turkey trot' the hit of the season at the Poinciana in the evenings. "The cake walkers always please, under the very able management of 'Kid' Coles. New steps and old ones are tried to hold the attention of the audience and judges alike, with the result that each performance shows something new and interesting. "On the baseball diamond the two nines representing the Breakers and Poinciana hotels, show up to decided advantage, for this year they have put up a quality of ball that would pass inspection at times for 'big league stuff.' "Speaking of clowns, you may have one for a bell boy or waiter, and then there are always some at the baseball field wearing regulation suits but amusing the audience between the acts by their remarks and antics. There are real clowns that are labelled by a make-up, too, and help the band keep out of tune by turning hand springs, etc., over their musical apparatus. At the cake walk and during the evening hours at the Palm Room one finds many who have talents that would fit them for the stage. "At the golf club the large number of caddies fill their part in the day's program by carrying your bag about the links, asking you for an extra dime to get something to eat, or a nickel for a ferry fare when the round is over, and arousing your mirth or temper as the case may be, according to the kind of caddy you draw. "It's all these factors and many others combined that make the Palm Beach machinery grind out good times for the fun-loving colony that is here at present." WHERE THE SHOWS ARE. DR.

For instance, the old man character should get another beard. The four men play their musical instruments entertainingly. In the act are Sidney Chase, Vivian Chase, Walter Hodge, William Mackey and S. Jennere. Carrie Stithe is back to Harlem after quite an absence. She has not lost any of her old-time pleasing manner of putting over a song. The Pewees were on the bill at the Crescent the second half of last week. The male member is one of the best juggler's that, has been seen in Harlem if not the best. His female partner would strengthen the act by keeping still while he is doing his difficult juggling stunts. FRANKLIN THEATRE Monday the Franklin Theatre inaugurated a four-a-day policy, and in the future but four shows instead of five will be given. This is another victory for the performers, as they will be required to do one show less a day. Bailey and Bailey come to us from the West with a good act. The female member does the most ambitions vocal 17 work, while the male member shines in the footwork. Bailey and Bailey pay more than ordinary attention to costumes. Tricko is an athletic young man who is quite supple, and he wins applause with his barrel-jumping performance. The Claybrooks continue to keep their set up to the standard. Scribner and Harper entertained in Irish songs and jokes. Evor Robinson and Gonze White have formed a sister team and were the hit of the bill at the Franklin Theatre the second half of last week. PRESENT "THE LADY OF LYONS." (8v R. G. Doggett.) Before one of the most fashionable audiences of flattering size and enthusiasm, at the Howard Theatre, Saturday evening, February 22, the Howard University College Dramatic Club was welcomed in a most successful production of Baler Lytton's famous romantic play, "The Lady of Lyons." Herefore the Club has contented itself with presentations of comedies, but this play marks its first adventure with a play of a more serious nature, and it was indeed a happy choice for a play of this type. Without a doubt there has never been a play more adversely criticized than by the way we always turn to it with a certain sentimental satisfaction. However much we may condemn its sudden shifts from the sublime to the ridiculous, its transitions from common speech to the heights of blank verse, its artificielles of motive and action,—there is no play that is more lavish with situations. The poetic charm of Miss Osceola Macarthy's delivery of the lines of "Pauline" materially assisted the success of the play. Her performance was indeed a revelation for even her most ardent admirers of her last year did not suspect such latent blistromic ability. She struck a high note—so high in that Washington will ever hold her up as the standard. The richness andness of her voice never once failed of her preface from the audience. So effective was her acting in the scene where "Pauline" denounces "Melotte" for his deception of her, that she wrung tears from the listeners' eyes. Thus truly is the greatest tribute an audience can pay any actor. A great mistake was made in the selection of W. P. Tucker for the part of "Claud Melnotte." Why such a promising young player as L. A. Howard had been in more than one occasion won his career was no surprise; this part is another riddle for the sphinx to solve. Had the part been played by Mr. Howard and as good an actor as Mr. Howard given the part of "Beaucoust," there would have been, assembled a group of players who had presumed that an yet unexcelled cast, which gave such a remarkable performance of "She Stoops to Conquer." Although Mr. Tucker's work showed much serious application in the study of the part of "Claude Meinotte," he fell short of the possibilities of his role. For the portrayal of Claud is needed a young man of romantic figure and a rich flexible voice that could set the feminine heart afame by the fervor of his acting. Both of these qualities Mr. Tucker lacked. The showband and one shades of inflection and motion that might have made a wonderful character were hardly creation of Meinotte were hardly ingested in his dispassionate immobile impersonation. When his voice, and stilted and artificial poses did not inspire pity they brought forth exclamations of disgust. He played the part in its entirety on a dead level of monotonous mediocrity. If Mr. Howard does not in some way find a means to develop his undoubted talent for acting he will indeed make his calling. His make-up was excellent and except for just a little artificial painting in one or two scenes. cording to' the standards of sentimental melo-drama, he was the hit of the male contingent. Mr. Howard was welcomed most kindly by his admiring audience and deserved the plaudits he received, for his voice is even more mature, and his presence is quite as vital. He is growing in grace and strength even though "Because" is not the best role he has essayed. Miss Marion E. Somner may not be the Madam Deschappelles, but it is certain that dramatic prototype could not have been created than she, and she has never looked more beautiful. In variety of character she accomplished a great deal. Miss Ruth Tuell made "Widow Melnotte" a sympathetic character and acted with decided finish. John H Purnell as "Colonel Damas" gave an artistic performance. Miss Jemmie Hugg in dress, manner, and looks reminded one more of one of the ladies at the court of Louis XV than as "Janet" the bar maid. W. E. Jibbs make-up in both the characters of the servant and notary was a shamful bologuese of the parts, but his acting was very capable. This same criticism might be made concerning several other characters who donned red and blond wigs which came as near harmonizing with their complexion as the two poles. There can be no possible excuse for the neglect in omitting the name of Oscar J. Cooper's from the program, other than sheer negligence of the the secretary, assistant manager, manager or whoever had charge of the printing of the program should have carefully gone over the proof before proceeding with the printing. In spite of this injustice to Mr. Cooper, he gave a performance of the inkeeper which delightful and of much variety and variety. The playing of Messrs. Earl H. Crumpter C. H. Ruffin, Writer S. Hannar and J. R. C. Cook was impressive and completely admirable. Miss F. Dykes, and Messrs. Stevens and Allen were among others in the cast who played their parts with skill and poise. The costumes and scenery were adequate, still one wonders why "Pauline" wore the same dress throughout acts one, two, three and four. Truly, such a dummy did not become a woman of her birth party and station. The stage manager should have been more careful in providing all the sential properties for the actors, "Pauline" was compelled to drink her coffee without either sugar, milk or spoon. Such neglect of small details did greatly from an all-round production. Too much praise cannot be given N. L. Guy for the finished way in which he produced and staged the play. While much credit is due the players, director, assistant manager and members of the executive staff, the most glorious is due W. Winthrop, upon whose shoulders more than any one else reated the success or failure of the undertaking. IN THE WORLD OF SPORT Howard University defeated the Owls of Newark last Friday evening in a closely contested catch at Plerson's Hall, Newark, by a score of 12 to 10. Howard went to Newark confident of easily defeating the local quint, but the college boys were given the surprise of their career. At the end of the first half the score stood 6 to 5 in Howard's favor, and it was not until the game was called that there was any certainty as to the winner. Bragg Again Star of Meet. Jesse Bragg, a member of the Poli- ciana baseball team and an all-round athlete, carried off the honors at the annual field day sports held at Palm Beach, Fla. Bragg won the 100-yard dash and the 60-yard dash and finished second in the 100-yard hurdle. In all the New Yorker won three first prizes and two second prizes. This is the third year in which Bragg has been the star of the annual athletic meet at Palm Beach. Drew Speedy in 40-Yard Dash. Howard P. Drew, the Springfield spinner, showed his wonderful speed in the 40-yard dash at the annual track and field indoor championships of the New England A. A. A., held in Mechanics Hall, Boston, Friday evening. Drew won his trial beat handily, and in turn final darted to the yarn like a shot from a gun. His time was 4-5 seconds. C. A. Rice of the Powder School was second to Drew and L. Howe of English High third. J. H. Cummings of Harvard third best of the hurdlers. He captured the 45-yard event in 6.1-5 seconds. T. H. Huff of Massachusetts Tech was second and W. C. Brackett of Harvard third. Grainger Enters Meet The entry of R. Grainger, the fast half-mile now running on the Dartmouth Coliseum rampage relay team, has also been received for St. Set Athletic Meet on March 25. Grainger is scheduled to start in the 1,000-yard event, where he will most likely meet such record holders is Abel Kiviat of the Irish-American A.C. and Homer Baker of the New York A.C. This will undoubtedly be one of the great events of the carnival, under the expert training of Harry Hillman. Grainger has also developed into a speedy runner and in the J. B. Taylor Memorial he will be a contender from start to finish. "Charlie" Mundt, the fast St. Bortholomew sprinter, has entered to compete against Howard P. Drew in the 75-yard special. John B. Taylor, Jr. Memorial Trophy. The John B. Taylor Memorial Trophy Committee is making an effort to raise $500 with which to purchase a trophy to be offered as a prize to the quarter-mile race, the distance at which John B. Taylor held the world's record, a record which has never been equalled. Mr. Louis E. Haxter, 483 Hancock street, Brooklyn, is secretary of the committee which has sent out a circular letter setting forth the plan, and requesting contributions to be devoted to this purpose. The trophy will be competed for at the athletic carnival to be held by the Smart Set Athletic Club of New York on March 26 at the 47th Regiment Armory, Brooklyn. Conditions governing the competition specify that the trophy will become the property of the club or college winning this event three times, holding personally to the individual runner who scores the greatest number of points for his organization. The committee is composed of Bert A. Williams, Robert T. Givens, Paul G. Prayer, Frank E. Payne, New York City, Maj. Andrew F. Stevens, Dr. Max Barber, Philadelphia; E. Bernard Taylor, Baltimore; *Charence J. Mathews, Boston; Dr. Louis E. Baxter, Brooklyn, secretary. The committee will be held under the sanction of the Amateur Athletic Union, and the union must be informed by March 10 as to the character of the trophy to be offered. Subscriptions from $1 to $10 may be sent the secretary. Athletics at Shaw The university baseball team, under the management of Messrs. E. D. Washington and E. E. Toney, is fast rounding into shape, preparatory to the heavy schedule Southern trip, as well as strenuous campaign at home. The team will show class. Among the old stars now active are such "phenoms" as Captain Babney at third, Johnson doing stunts around the initial sock, Hargrove at the keystone bag, and Gunn behind the stick. The outfield will be praised. Among those trying for positions are in center garden, "Big League" Smith, the right field artist; and Hawkins of last year's squad looking out for left. The pitching staff, with the exception of Young Williams, will be of the recruit variety. The new mound artists are Penson and Howard, two big, robust-looking fellows, who formerly performed for Benedict College. "Kid" Horrington, an ex-Livingstone Collegian, is doing brilliant short field work, though young Fred Olston is also prepared to formulate candidate. Blandy, who is trying for the outfield, is also doing well. The "varsity" will open the season here on March 15 at the State Fair Grounds. Avon Club Leading for the Bowling Championship.
