VOL. XXVI. No. 36. WIN FIGHT FOR NEGRO REGIMENT Gov. William Salzer Signs Bill Providing for Colored Militiamen DELEGATION AT ALBANY Mayor Gaynor Refuses to Sign Measure and it Is Taken to Albany and Signed in Nick of Time. TO ORGANIZE BY COMPANIES Instead of Forming Entire Regiment 90 Days After BILL Becomes a Law, One Company Will Be Organized. ALBANY, N. Y., June 4.—Gov. Sulzer has signed the bill authorizing the establishment of a colored regiment of infantry as a part of the National Guard of the State. Had the chief executive of New York waited twenty minutes longer before affixing his signature the bill would not have become a law. It was exactly twenty minutes of twelve Monday night when Gov. Sulzer made up his mind to sign the bill. In doing so he declared that his actions were prompted because of his principle that there should be no discrimination among citizens because of race, color or creed. The fight to secure the establishment of a colored regiment in New York State was won after bills had been presented and declared in the Legislature for three years. Two previous bills failed of passage, owing to the opposition of white members of the National Guard appointed onto the legislators that if a colored regiment were formed in the State the "social equality" question would be raised. The fact that the Eighth Regiment, Illinois National Guard, was made up of colored men and officered by Negroes, and that there was no race agitation, did not cause the New York militiamen to let up in their opposition to the proposed colored regiment. Winning Fight Waged by Equity Congress. The fight for a colored treatment in New York State was begun by the Equity Congress, and to this organization, which is independent in politics, does the credit for the pleasing turn of affairs. Some months ago a Provisional judgment was organized with Charles W. Hillmore as colonel. When a delegation of Negroes went to Albany Monday to consult with Gov. Sutherland about signing the bill they were informed that a question had arisen as to whether, the measure required the signature of the Governor or the Mayor. The bill was at once taken to Mayor Gaynor in New York City, who rejoiced to sign it, stating that it was up to the Governor. He also volunteered the information that even if it was in his province to put his signature to the bill he would refuse to do so, as he did not think much of the colored regiment idea. One of his reasons for against the bill was that it entailed the unnecessary expenditure of large sums of money. Upon learning of Mayor Gaynor's unfriendly attitude toward the bill another quick trip was made to Albany, and Monday night after a conference Gov. Sutherland decided to attach his signature to the document. Although the bill provides that within three months after the bill became a law the adjutant general shall organize and equip a colored regiment of infantry in the city of New York; Gov. Sulzer and Adjut-Gen. Henry De Witt Hamilton have decided to muster in but one company at the end of the ninety-day period. The formation of the first commander be regarded as an experiment, and if successful others will be organized from there. Instead of being provided with an annually temporary quarters will be secured for drilling purposes. The staff officers will not be chosen until the regiment has its full quota of enlisted men.

ELECTED MEMBER OF THE CITY COUNCIL Special to the NEW YORK ACE: WHEELING, W. Va., June 3.—At last the Negroes of the Second Ward have shown themselves capable of electing one of their race to the City Council, in the person of Dr. B. H. Stillyard. On last Thursday at the city election the men black marched to the polls and cast the vote for one of the race and he is an honor the Negroes can feel proud of.

Bruce Evans Asks Board of Education to Give Him a Hearing REMOVED FOR INCOMPETENCY Former Principal of Armstrongo Manual Training School tells BoardCin Letter of His Work as an Educator. Special to THE NEW YORK AUCK. WASHINGTON. D. C. June 4.—W. Bruce Evans, who was summarily, dismissed as principal of the Armstrong Manual Training School a few months ago, and has asked the Board of Education of the District of Columbia to hold a hearing and give him an opportunity to disprove the charge of incompetency, which is said to have brought about his removal. In his letter to the board Mr. Evans makes the following reference to his work as an educator: Appointed January 5, 1885, to the Benning Road (now the Henry Smothers) School. Organized the first manual training shop in the graded schools of the District of Columbia in 1880. Organized Burville School in 1887. Promoted to principalship of Benning Road School in 1891. Promoted to principalship of Mott School in 1893. In 1900 organized Armstrong Manual Training School, the attendance increasing from less than 200 the first year to more than 700 in 1912, and the curriculum of which, in addition to the academic and scientific work of high school, included practical work in baking, cooking, millinery, machine work, carpentry, forge and foundry work, steam and electrical engineering, freewand, mechanical and architectural drawing, the commercial department being also a unit of the work of Armstrong Manual Training School. The Armstrong Manual Training School, under my administration, secured, through civil service examination, representation in the Government Printing Office, Washington City Post Office, Interior Department, Navy Department, Treasury Department, Department of Agriculture, Library of Congress, in the service of the District of Columbia, etc. With the assistance of my loyal teachers every effort was made to secure employment and find opportunities for the girl students of Armstrong Manual Training School during their school careers, as well as after graduation. Our girl students and graduates have uniformly found employment as maids, seamstresses, milliners and housekeepers, a number of them have entered the Government service as printers' assistants in the Bureau of Engraving and Printing; still others are engaged in teaching sewing, cooking and kindred subjects in rural schools in nearby States. Several have actually opened dressmaking and millinery establishments of their own, not only in the city of Washington, but as far south as the Carolinas. Aided Pupile To Engage in Social Up- Ht Work. During my principalship, and under my direction, the students and graduates of the Armstrong School lent their aid to every worthy effort for the social uplift of our race in the District of Columbia. The first boys' club as well as the first girls' club organized for systematic work at the Colored Social Settlement Center was made up of Armstrong students. Appreciation as an educator outside of the city of Washington includes three years as teacher of mathematics in the Summer Normal School for Teachers at Hampton Institute, Hampton Va., and four years as director of that branch of Hampton Institute, when I raised the attendance from less than 200 to over 600 teachers, and the faculty from 10 to 32; unifying the curriculum, not only making the work more practical, but making it absolutely impossible for teachers who attend summer school to present to their respective superintendents at the close of the session certificates which really misrepresent or exaggerate the work actually accomplished. With the assistance of my loyal teachers, have established and conducted institutes for colored teachers in Montgomery County, Prince George's County, Washington County, Frederick County, Anne Arundel County, Talbert County, Wicomico County and Somerset County—all in the State of Maryland; also in Kent County, Delaware, and at Alexandria, Virginia. This institute work has opened up new opportunities for the development of a high catholic spirit among the young people of our day and night schools for a life of real service.

GREEN TELLS OF EXPERIENCE Head of the 'Knights of Pythia Put in Jail Where He Remained All Night —Next Morning Woman Fined $25 for Violating "Jim Crow" Law—Train Conductor Said to Have Started the Trouble. Special to THE NEW YORK AGE New Orleans, La., June 3.—S. W. Green, who barely escaped lynching at the hands of white toughs in Florida several days ago, has given out the following statement in connection with the disgraceful incident: "I arrived home safely Wednesday night, after an unexpected and unusual experience with a Florida mob. While quietly occupying a seat in the Pullman on Sunday, May 18, the train conductor informed me that the sentiment in the day coach occupied by white people was opposed to my riding in the Pullman car and that he would advise that I take a seat in the day coach for colored people. While he admitted that I was clearly within my rights under the law, but in order to avoid trouble I could go in the day coach, if I so desired. I readily consented to take a seat in the day coach in order to avoid any trouble. "I paid extra fare for the drawing room from Jacksonville to New Orleans and felt myself secure as being entirely separate from the white passengers, without any need of being in their presence, as I kept the door closed at all times. To my surprise when the train arrived at River Junction: Fla. en route to this city, I was informed by the conductor of the sleeping car that expressions from some of the white persons at the depot at River Junction were decidedly against my occupying even the drawing room in the Pullman car. I then readily consented to abandon the drawing room and go into the day coach in order to avoid trouble. "Upon my arrival at De Funiak Springs. Fla. a large crowd of young (Continued on Page 2.) GILBERT SUCCEEDS BELL AT MILES MEMORIAL Special to The New York Act: BIRMINGHAM, Ala., June 3—Declining to stand for re-election as president of Miles Memorial College, W. A. Bell, for the past five years connected with that school, and during the past year its president, added unexpectedly a dramatic feature to the commencement exercises which have just been concluded. In a letter to Bishop R. S. Williams Augusta, Ga., president of the annual conferences which support the school, Mr. Bell declared that the past year's work of the school had been notorious for its lack of harmony in all that pertained to the school's welfare, giving too much factualism as the reason. The young president said that the church in the State of Alabama is too much exercised over superficialities, and has suffered overmuch from misguided counsel and from misinterpretation of facts and conditions. Notwithstanding the handicaps under which he has had to labor, Mr. Bell stated that the institution enrolled during the past term the largest number of boarding students, catalogued for any single school year, and that the students were loyal to the institution. Important additions have been made. Hopeful of Compensation to mills. While the institution continued that the most efficacious contribution I can make to the solution of the problem is to decline to stand for re-election as president of Miles Memorial College, thereby procuring to the trustees the opportunity to choose some man as president of the institution upon whom the whole State can unite and secure to the church cessation at least of strife and contention. This letter was presented by Bishop Williams to the board of trustees, and the resignation was accepted. In doing so the board applauded the work of Mr Bell in connection with the school for the past five years, with particular reference to his administration as president. To succeed Mr. Bell, the board cedet as president the Rev. Dr. John Wesley Gilbert of Augusta, Ga., at present superintendent of African missions, and formerly connected with Paine College, Angstua, Ga., one of the most distinguished scholars of the Negro race. It is believed that the election of Dr. Gilbert will prove a happy solution to what would have eventually meant the run of Miles College. Dr. Gilbert has been out of the country, prosecuting his work in Africa, and is consequently not personally mixed up in the college embroghio. He cannot be sufficiently acquainted with details of the affair to take sides, and by reason of his ability as an educator, his eminent attainment intellectually, and his合愿 to be expected to join hands and help him piles Memorial College to the front. It was announced by Bishop Williams, who is a trustee of Paine College, Augusta, and chairman of the local board of that school, that Prof. Bell had been elected to hand the department of mathematics at Paine College. Mr. Bell graduated from Paine College in 1986. CONTINUE TO LOSE THEIR JOBS Democratic Administration Still Active in Discharging Negroes BUSH RECEIVES NOTICE Asked to Resign as Receiver of Public Moneys at Little Rock, Art., although He Has a Year More to Serve. Southerners Want To Go To Liberty and Hail-Forgot Their Color Projections When Soaking Positions. Special to THE NEW YORK AGE: WASHINGTON, D. C. June 4.-The policy adopted by the Democratic administration of throwing out Negro officeholders before the expiration of their terms continues. The flat refusal of the Democratic administration to appoint a Negro to office continues. The latest Negro officeholder to receive notice that his services are no longer desired is J. E. Bush, Receiver of Public Monies at Little Rock, Ark. Mr. Bush is one of the leading Re- ```markdown ``` publicans in Arkansas, and has held the position of Receiver of Public Moneys for many years. On May 29, Mr. Bush received the following notice from the Secretary of the Interior. "I have to request that you tender your resignation as Receiver of Public Moneys at Little Rock, to take effect upon the appointment and qualification of your successor." Mr. Bush's term of office does not expire until May 19, 1914. But as the Democratic administration is doing everything possible to get rid of Negro officeholders as quickly as they can, the fact that a colored man has one more year's tenure in office means little. With the Wilson administration letting out Negro officeholders by the wholesale, with the failure of President Wilson, apprehension colored man to representative position since March 4 and with the United States Government sanctioning "Jim Crowing" in the departments at the capital city, the Negro Democrats who helped to put the democrat party in power are finding their lot an unhappy one. Before election they were going about declaring they had the assurance of Mr. Wilson that he would see that the Negro was treated fairly, and that the Democrats would also appoint colored men to responsible Federal positions. Wilson Has Been Chief Executive Three Months. Now that President Wilson has been in office three months even many of the President's stanchest supporters are weakening and admit that "a screw is loose somewhere." Heretofore, when chided about the apathetic attitude of the President toward the Negro, they would demand that the President's critics give him time. "He will surprise you before long," was the usual response. But living in hopes has not gotta them anything. Therefore they are very much discouraged. Two jobs formerly held by colored men have been vacant for two months. One is the ministership to Liberia, which position was made vacant by the resignation of Fred R. Moore; the other is the assistant registrieship of the Treasury, as the Senate refused to confirm Mr. Strickland, who had been appointed by President Taft. The colorists Democrats are unable to explain why these places have not been filled. The attitude of Southern Democrat on the Negro question is a peculiar one. They rant in the halls of Congress about "social equality," and the segregation of race, and yet Southerners want to serve as ministers to Haiti and Liberia. Three white men, all Southerners, have President Obama has to make good progress to represent the United States government, one of them being an ex-Gregressman from Tennessee; at least his white men are endeavoring to convince the President that they should be selected as United States Minister to Haiti. It is humorous to observe how quickly the Southern politicians forge their color prejudices when they want jobs. It is claimed by some colored Democrats that Presidente Wilson had not appointed a Negro to office, fearing that he would antagonize certain Democratic Senators whom he wanted lined up with him in his tariff fight. For the past six weeks a rumor has been in circulation that President Wilson was going to appoint a Negro to office. Negroes throughout the country are still waiting to learn if there was any truth in the report. AUSTIN, TEX.

Our $1.00 BOOK The LOADSTONE Mother of MAGNETISM FREE READ THE WORDS OF OTHERS I cannot begin to tell you all the benefits I have received since the arrival of the two specimens of Loadstones you sent me. For many years I was convinced that no person lived who was more unfortunate than myself. Loss in business; death of loved ones and other troubles too numerous to mention, were driving me to a state of frenzy. A friend told me to write you for information regarding the system of two Loadstones and their power. As a 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 to mar my state of this letter as reference, for I believe it of the wonderful change in my life, through the power and influence of two Dear Sirs: Several weeks ago I foolishly laid th 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. Several weeks ago I foolishly laid the chamols bag containing the two Loadstones on the dresser and forgot them. Trouble began as of old; my husband was fretful and finding fault with everything. I was all out of sorts myself and wondered what had happened to cause so much discord all at once. Finally I remembered the Loadstones and began to search for them. A few days later I found them tucked away in my machine drawer where one of the children had put them. Now everything, as far as I am concerned, is moving along nicely, but my husband, who laughed when the Loadstones first arrived, has changed his tune, and has sent you an order for a pair for himself.

Just before arriving at Milton, Fla., I was informed by some of the train crew that a mob was being formed for the purpose of taking me from the car, although I was then in the day coach. "Upon my arrival at Milton, the crowd discovered me in the day coach and some one claiming to have a warrant for my arrest caught hold of my hand and I went with him out of the coach and the train pulled out. A crowd of about 17 or 18 persons surrounded me with one large man on each side of me, holding each hand and accompanied me from the depot into the town where they carried me to the jail and interviewed me.

Every reader of Tur Ace of last week’ must have been outraged in feel- ings by the statement of the mob in- dignities heaped upon Chancellor S. W.

Chancellor Green should take the matter to the Federal courts "amd prosecute it to the highest court at Washington, and the Knights of Py- thias and the race in general should sustain him.

The-Northern and Western Negro has sacrificed his political, church and educational advancement and bene- factions ‘that the Southern Negro might bave them more abundantly from 1890 to 1912, and there is no rubbing that out. Furthermore, it is impossi- ble for the Northern Negro to see and discuss public questions from the stand- point and viewpoint of the Southern Negro, because the latter is hemmed in aed gagged by vile, barbarous, white law and public opinion now, ia a meas- wre, as he was before the slave war, white the former is hemmed in and gaared in no such way; but if he stands, for it in the South he will be called pen to stand for it in the North, In-| dood, the faint and distant sounds of [,sceouint of thelr quent wealth than ‘their’ worth” 9 cian, - sccanfpatin® he Nethoeal tendency to gat great wealth above the ability to creste wealth out of disorganized matter—euch as the labor of thoussads of men work- ing out_a central iden is’ building the North River Tunael or the Panama Canal, the one commecting Jersey City and New York and the. cther the Pacific “ind Atlantic oceans.

The aggregate wealth of the late John Jacob Astor, Henry H. Rogers, J..Pierpont Morgan and Henry M. Flagler would be no more than $280,- 000,000, but all of it, except the Astor estate, was created in their lifetime by their great ability for measuring the public demand for a staple commodity of prime, necessity and supplyjng it, and in handling to the best advantage the monty of others in industrial corporations and approved securities of all sorts. What the three of them created in-their lifetime any three men of like ability can create, and may be doing so now, but in other lines of constructive development. It is not a difficult matter to create wealth, if you know how, as Nature has scattered everywhere in the air and earth and water the materials for wige men to gather together and fuse into wealth.. The wise man and not the wealth he creates is the main thing. “It is the disposition to worship the wealth he creates that SE always been the undoing of the man. In the case of Mr. Rogers, Mr. Morgan and Mr. Flagler this was not the case. They not only did not place wealth before them, but kept it behind them and made it serve them, in. the great indus tries they had created, up to the last day of their lives. They were busy, active, generous, Dyplic spirited men to the last, deeply interested in the welfare of their coutry and of their fellow men. Others might exalt and ‘worship, the wealth they created, but they exalted man and used their wealth to help others, by giving profitable employment to thousands of men, : Dr. Orison Swett Marden says, in the magazine section of the New York Sun (May 25): - <A few acres of dirt, a cow of buildings, a place to live im a few stocks and bonds, & little silver plate and’ Gne furnishings, yood clothes, are, alter all, péetty poor sort of things to aatiafy the longings of an immortal soul, “To be engulfed in one’s occupation, ewallowed up in 2 complicated life, harassed by the striving and steaining, the worry and anxiety, which accompany a vast’ fortune— | is this to be rich” “Do you think of Phillips Brooks, Thoreau, Garrison, Emersom, Reecher, Agassi, | ‘ss poor mea? “The men snd women who would more the world, who would realize true fortune and power, must be a part of it: they soust touch the life chat moor is and (ee) the thrill of the movement for social progress “Only he who vscek's humanity's gout, humanity's wellare, to endow bumenity with 8 fortune, can: fad his own ° “Perbaps the richest American who ever livet was Abraham Liftoln, because be ave all of himitelt to his fellow people.

If he is not in so fortunate a Position as to do that when he begins life after leaving his father’s house, it should be his first concern to do so. But it is not. The average Negro, at least,,has so far laughed and made nierry with the fat years and depended upon luck and bluff to take him through the lean years; with the result that he too often becomes a wage slave, a servant under tribute, with a growing family to provide for and educate as the chain to bind him to his hard condition. He may think he is free, but he is rather a slave in the most desperate condition. All are such who: spend as they go, creating each day obligations to the family, the church and the state, that grow |, larger and heavier with the years, until the poor wage creature sinks into the grave, often leaving his dependents as objects of charity. Wendell Phillips, William Lloyd Garrison and Abraham Lincoln died rich'in good works, it is true, but very poor in: worldly: goods, and left their wives and children with the burden of providing for themselves. | They spent a’ that they bad and made in the effort to free the Negro slave. Mr. Phillips inherited great wealth as did Charles Sumner, and made much and could have made more, but they preferred to spend and be spent for the slave. Most of the men and women in the anti-slavery work did the same. It was a time when the faith of the Puritan fathers was put to the test and approved itself as worthy, and that is why the aext two generations of them in the New England and Middle States have een blessed not only with great wisdom, but with fabulous wealth, so that they have been able to give of their abundance more than one hun- dred million dollars to educate the Negroes of the South whom their fath- +rs made iree by agitation, by proclamation and at the point of the bayo- et. Their children and grandchildren helped to educate and start in life hose their fathers and grandfathers freed.

COLONEL ROOSEVELT NO “DRUNKARD” ‘The greatest economic scandal of the times is that Christian Nations should legalize and heavily tax the liquor traf- fic and protect ‘liquor vendors from di- rect consequences of their deadly busi- ness, while having no mercy on the habitual and excessive liquor drinkers. who may begin in the palace. and end in the slums, and who everywhere fill the poor houses, penitentiaries and in- sane asylums of the land. It is of great general interest at this time that, while President Wilson has banished all liquors from the White House and Secretary Bryan has estab: lished unfermented grape juice and white radishes in the State Department that the diplomatic corps must accept us “‘the things” preferred above cham: pagne and mushrooms, things the great Lucullus would not bave allowed on| the Koman menu card. former Presi- dent Theodore Roosevelt should have been prosecuting all last week, at Mar- quette, Mich., a Mr. Newett, the editor of Iron Ore for saying in his newspaper, iu the heat of the campaign last year, that “Col. Roosevelt is a drunkard, and all of his friends know it” Col. Roosevelt, took a carload of his friends a3 witnesses to Marquette to prove that they did not know anything of the sort. Col. Roosevelt demands $10,000 dam- ages; avery modest demand when the character of the man is considered. Of course, nobody believed’ Col. Roose- velt to be a drunkard before he ad- mitted on the witness stand he is a mod- erate drinker. Col, Roosevelt has act a good ex- ample in prosecuting the editorial gossip who accused him of being a drunkard and in establishing the fact’ that he takes a drink and has a right to do it when he thinks he necds it. On the other hand, President Wilson has set a better example, and has a right to do it. in banishing all liquors frbm the White House. A higher standard of iving than formerly is being required oi public men by public opinion.

He would aot so much as look at a “Black Hope.” Now he is dead, killed by a blow delivered by Arthur Pelky, regarded as “A Hope- less White,” in a prize ring at Calgary, Canada, recently.

WHAT part will the motion picture industry play in properly presenting to the world at large the American Negro? This question flashed through my mind a few evenings ago while seated in a Harlem theatre looking at motion pictures which came under the heading of Pathe's Weekly. In this set of pictures important current happenings all over the, world were produced for the edification of theatregoers, and the pictures, aside from being interesting, possessed some educational value. Following the film showing President Wilson throwing the first ball at the opening game between New York and Washington at Washington, D. C., came a picture of flood refugees at Memphis, Tenn. All of the refugees in line were colored. Then the operator who took the pictures must have made up his mind to inject a bit of comedy. The spectacle of this long line of hungry, homeless men, women and children did not touch his sympathetic chord, nor did it awaken a feeling of sadness. Under these depressing conditions he was light of heart and wanted to laugh. So he arranged three little black, half-starved plckaninies in a row, sat a bowl of mush and a piece of bread before each and then waited to see the fgn. Even a cultured grown-up person, when nearly famished, thinks little of etiquette, and these youngsters did not disappoint the operator for the Pathe concern. They crammed their mouths with mush and bread until their jaws stuck out like little inflated black balloons. They did not use their spoons gracefully, putting in mush from every angle. Not being good judges as to how many spoon-fins made a mouthful, quite a bit of the food fell from their lips and landed there, there and everywhere. The ugliest of the three pickaininies was crosseyed, had a mouth that almost stretched from ear to car, and nostrils that were a parody on the nose. This unfortunate little creature was made to laugh and open her mouth, displaying a set of protracting gums that would attract unusual attention at a dental clinic. Then she would drop her bread on the ground, pick it up and continue to make it an object of mastication. A negro woman was also put on exhibition who was subjected to vigorous disinfecting by health officials. A fluid was squirted down her throat in large doses, and her grimaces and actions must have put the motion picture operator in good humor. From the "comic" pictures the audience was taken abroad and the Kaiser of Germany figured in one scene. The peasants going to church on Sunday in one of the German towns was next shown, and as I gazed at the reproduction showing the German boys and girls making their way to church in large numbers, I wondered why it was that the Pathe people had seen fit to depict to the world the lowest type of the Negro—the ignorant, half-starved, homeless and deformed—while the peasantry of Germany was presented in Sunday clothes and at their best. Certain Negro stage types have been instrumental in making thousands of whites in this and in other countries believe us to be as a whole what we are not, and if the motion picture concerns continue to do as the Pathe people in showing the refugees at Memphis, or rather the colored refugees, the impression of the Negro in America will grow worse instead of better. If the motion picture concerns are sincere in their desire to educate the masses, they ought to make pictures showing the better element of the race, not the lowest. To every section of the globe are these motion pictures sent, and when in England, Germany, France and Russia the natives see only pictures of the worst of us, the only conclusion they can reach is that the motion picture people are presenting the best types of the race. Motion picture houses conducted by colored managers should make it their business to prevail upon the manufacturers of motion picture films to present the Negro under more favorable conditions. Even in the United States the white and colored citizens are living practically side by side with the white citizens, in general, knowing very little about us. The motion picture industry can wield an influence for good and serve as an educational medium in helping to solve the so-called Negro question if it will; but setting up to the world from time to time the very lowest types of the race, whether intentionally or unconsciously done, is harmful. THE WEEKLY NEWS TAYLOR AND "HIAWATHA." To the Dramatic Editor of THE AGE: The Choral Society of this city is singing "Hiawatha," and because the writer is colored and at young lady employed in this office is white, and a member of the choral, to satisfy myself I would like to know whether or not Mr. Taylor composed the whole score himself. The young lady (white) says their conductor said he only composed a part of it and had assistance, at least she intimated, from some white man. I notice, however, in their advertising of the event in their newspapers they do not mention the nationality of Mr. Cole-ridge Taylor. Thanking you for the information, I beg to remain.

THE FROGS --- FRANKLIN THEATRE. The proprietors of the Franklin Theatre are in smiles, as their experiment of presenting motion pictures exclusively is proving satisfactory. Although motion pictures have reigned supreme but a week a clientele has been already established which fills the house throughout the evening. The latest photo plays are being shown, with new pictures daily, and the price of admission is five cents for both afternoon and evening. CRESCENT THEATRE A colored company of nine, four women and five men, are furnishing most of the entertainment at the Crescent Theatre this week. They appear on the first part of the bill as Winn's Minstrel Maids, and close the program under the billing "Southland." The minstrel first part is full of ginger, and everybody sings and dances in lively fashion. "Dearest Memories" is song by a young woman who has a sweet soprano voice which is strong in its upper register. The comedians excite mirth, but they had better "can" their stage talk in which they guy each other about being black. It is not funny in Harlem. Plantation numbers are rendered and there is some red-hot dancing done in "Southland." Almyra, an aerialist, is well up in his line of work. Tuesday evening several amateurs THE F (Incorp MANHATT Monday Even who are ambitious to become regular performers were given try-outs. Most of them are eligible for membership in the White Rats. The management announces that Tuesday evening has been set aside as amateur night. Among those on the bill at the Crescent the second half of last week were Frank B. Williams, who appeared in an original character role, the Brinkleys and Smith & Hatch. LAFAYETTE THEATRE. Johnny Peters and Ethel Williams, Texas Tommy dancers, were the big noise at the Lafayette Theatre the first half of the week. They have one of the strongest dancing acts in vaudeville and would go big in any theatre—large or small time. Ethel Williams, who has been tutored by her clever partner, has developed into a dancer far above the ordinary. In fact she gives promise of being a wonderful dancer. Several months ago when she was a member of the Gum Drop act it was predicted in these columns that some day she would develop into a dancer of parts. Miss Williams had better wear pink tights instead of black ones with her pink skirt. The Twelve Georgia Blossoms; headed by "Boots" Allen and Mattie Phillips, were headliners. The act has a picturesque stage setting and the opening is effective. The best work done on the skit is the dancing. There is no need of "Boots" Allen calling Mattie Phillips black, nor does he need indulge in any dialogue in which he tells that he once knew her when she was ragged, etc. Even such talk between men does not make 'em laugh now. Allen & Morton should stick to their original act. It is much stronger. Sallie Brown, a white singer despite her name, knows how to put over a song to advantage, and the Les Valadons please in their acrobatic stunts. 'THE SMYTH RECITAL Edward Smyth Jones, author of "The Sylvan Cabin," and other poems, an extension student in Columbia University, and bailed by some critics as a promising Negro poet, made his debut before a New York audience Monday evening, June 2, at Mother Zion Church, West 89th street, the Rev. R. M. Bolden, pastor, in a program of readings from his works. The audience was sympathetic and gave Mr. Jones a hearty greeting and appreciative hearing. His writings are sincere and give evidence of an ability that will probably develop with more mature experience. In reading his poems Mr. Jones' voice is hardly equal to the task of giving a perfect rendering, lacking sonority and flexibility. A good teacher in elocution would be able to eliminate this defect for Mr. Jones. The first appearance of Mr. Jones was in a group of short poems which he classed as "A Bachelor's Reverie." It was made up of "The Morning Star" dedicated to A. B. B.; "The Bachelor's Song"; "Dainty Dora," to D. M. M., and "What's the Use?" He responded to an enthusiastic encore with lines written "To J. S. B." Lulu Johnson's Song" was his next selection. By the aid of a stereotype "An Ode to Ethiopia" was given as an illustrated reading. According to the poet's explanation, this ode is a deduction of the parts played by the Ethiopian in the genals of history, and the illustrations projected upon the screen as the reading progressed were in exemplification of the text. Negroes whose names are familiar to the student of modern history were limited to the audience and each photo was greeted with apology. Mr. Jones' last number, "O God, Wilt Thou Help Me in School?" was prefaced by an explanation as to when it was written and the circumstances preceding its production. This embraced a statement of the hardships and trials which the poet has had to meet in his efforts to secure an education and continue his worship at the shrine of poey. The musical portion of the program was furnished by Miss S. Gertrude Dees, pianist, who opened the program with "Fachinachchwank and Wein." Miss Lena B. Sinha, described as "the rising young colourista soprano," furnished the vocal numbers. She sang arias from "Robert le Diable" and "Le Cid." Other numbers were "Yesterday and To-day," "Hi, LAT Beller," and "Ive Something Sweet to Tell You." Miss Simms has a sweet voice, which shows evidence careful instruction. It hardly up to the number of bands of the trios, adding the strength and power needed to bring out the dramatic intensity of these compositions. In her ballad numbers she was above the average and gives promise of developing into a singer of pleasing capacity. She was a decided favorite with the audience and responded generously to their insistent demands for encores. The accom- FROGS (orated) AN CASINO ning, June 30 paniments were sympathetically played by Miss Dyes. 7.000 PERSONS HEAR SOUTHERN MELODIES One of the, if not the largest, crowds that ever filled the City Auditorium, Houston, Tex., attended the municipal concert Sunday to hear the oldtime Southern melodies sung by a chorus of eighty voices from the Prairie View Normal and Industrial College. The huge edifice was crowded with close to seven thousand people, so that standing room was at a premium. Hundreds of people stood at the entrances and in the aisles, and there was not a vacant spot in large rooms. Dr. Allen Kyle of the agricultural and mechanical college was present and pronounced the gathering one of the most representative he had ever seen. Mayor Ben Campbell and Commissioner H. A. Halverton were compelled to stand through the entire program, but it was plainly seen that they enjoyed every feature The Rev. W. S. Lockhart, who has had charge of these entertainments ever since they were first instituted, was highly pleased with the large crowd which turned out Sunday. He said he was pleased to see so many thousands of people in favor of the present form of municipal entertainments, and said that he sincerely trusted they would be made a permanent institution of the city. A large number of people personally congratulated Dr. Lockhart on his splendid success with these entertainments. When the boys and girls sang the "Swanee River" the entire top gallery filled with colored people, rose up as a unit and joined in the chorus. It was a wonderful sound as those voices blended together in the melody of that old old tune. The white people in the lower gallery and the main floor applauded the singers so long and heartily that it was necessary for the entire audience of colored people to sing the song over again. Miss W. B. Patterson is the one responsible for the training of these singers. She is musical director at the Prairie View School, and teaches the students all their songs. Her work with the quartet of two boys and two girls showed up splendidly, and it was necessary for them to repeat the song, "I Couldn't Hear Nobody Pray," several times before the audience would permit the remainder of the program to be finished. The songs chosen by Miss Patterson were all of a religious nature, and the gusto and sincerity with which they were sung was a tribute to her efforts. The program was as follows: Part One "There's a Meeting Here To-night." "Listen to the Lambs." "Nobody Knows the Trouble I've Seen." (Boys' chorus.) "My Lord, what a Mourning. "Run to Jesus." (Girls' chorus.) "Listen to the Angels." (Girls' chorus) "Steal away." "Some of These Mornings." Part Two. Piano Solos—"Sometimes I Feel Like a Motherless Child." "Steal Away." Part Three. "Lord, I Want to Be a Christian." "I Couldn't Hear Nobody Pray." (Quartet.) "We'll Stand the Storm." "Oh, Rocks Don't Fall on Me." Tenor Solo—"Until," O. Lattimore. Part Five. Soprano Solo—Sketches from "Fliawatha." "Spring Had Come With All Its Splendor." "By the Shore of the Gitchie Gumce." Part Six. · "Rise and Shine." · "Free at Last." · "Swing Low, Sweet Chariot." "Going to Shout, All Over God's Heaven." "What Kind of Shoe You Going to Wear?" Part Seven. "Texas, O Texas." Words and music by E. L. Blackshear. CHARITY BEES GIVE SHOW. Aida Overton Walker was the principal attraction in the two-act musical comedy, "The Honeymoon in Melody which was credibly presented Tuesday evening May 29 on the Broad Street Theatre Philadelphia, for the benefit of Mercy Hospital and the home for Protection of Colored Women by the Charity Bees. Others in the cast were James Harris, Allie Hughes, F.

RECITAL BY MARIE JAMES At a song recital last Tuesday evening at the Berean Baptist Church, Washington, D. C., Miss Marie C. James proved herself an artist. Miss James has been heard often in star concerts, but at no time has she appeared to such marked advantage. Miss James is placed by competent critics in the front rank of mezzo-contra solo singers. She has a voice of wide range, flexibility and of rare contralto quality. Her versatility was shown in the wide range of the program, which ran the gamut from Schuert's dramatic "Erl King" to the outburst of joy in Del Riego's "Happy Song." She was particularly effective in the "Lullaby" from Godard's "Jocelyn," with violin obligato by Felix Fowler Weir. Other selections which caught the fance of the audience were "Autumn Gale" by Grie; "The Singer" by Voices; Saint Saens, and "Der Wanderer" by Schuert. As an accompanist Miss Jennie Williams gave flawless support to the singer. Mr. Wier's violin solos sustained his reputation and Miss Clarice Jones at the piano in Liszta's "Hungarian Rhapodie" rounded out the program. The recital was given under the auspices of "The Bereanites," a social organization connected with the Berean Baptist Church, the Rev. D. F. Rivers, pastor, and the committee in charge of the affair was made up of R. C. Douglas, J. W. Butcher, Jr., J. B. Shamwell, Dr. C. Summor Wormley, Mrs. D. F. Rivers, Miss Oris Winfield, Mrs. E. B. Messer, Miss Nancy Atwood and Mrs. Anna-Watson. "Social Equality" in Prison.

SINGERS & PERFORMERS The Man Farthest Down By Author of "Up from Slavery," "My Larger Education. Ex This is the record of a trip made by Dr. Washington for the purpose of studying conditions in Europe, and it is a well illuminating book. For there is no one whose keen sympathy and understanding enables him really to depict the conditions of the man farthest down like the author of "Up From Slavery," and the great beauty of it is that it is filled with optimistic observations founded on solid fact and deduction as "Bad as conditions are in some places, I don't think 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 commonplace or bad, and that I avoided everything extravagant or worth while looking at. My only excuse is that I in fact, not looking for the best but for the worst. I hunting for the man farthest down." The inspiration of the book is that, having found the man farthest down, he shows an abundance of home for him. close, and the most important incident of the season is the temporary retirement of "Old Reliable," also known as "Black Matty," who has been out of the game on account of injuries. "Old Reliable" is the star pitcher for the Giants, which team won last season's pennant. However, the Giants are now fourth on account of the colored pitcher's inability to play. It would be interesting and instructive reading if the heads of the penitentiary would write an article explaining what is "social equality," and if "Old Reliable" is breaking a "sacred" tenet of the South.
