IN MANY STATES OVER 50 PER CENT. OF NEGROES HAVE WHITE BLOOD Leading Negro Newspaper VOL. XXVI. No. 37. IN MANY STATES OVE OF NEGROES HAVE Hereditary Expert Makes Stat- ment in Cosmopolitan Magazine OUR NEGRO POPULATION Statistics Show That it Has In- creased from 700,000 in Colonial Times to 10,000,000 Writer Says in Considering Matrimony It Must Be Remembered 14,000 Aliens Are in N. Y. State Incurant Aylums. Coming on the heels of the attempts to pass anti-misceenment laws in many States to prevent the marriage of colored and white people, Stoddard Goodbue, an authority on heredity, in an article appearing in the current number of the Cosmopolitan Magazine on "Do You Choose Your Children?" makes the statement that statistics show that in some States more than 50 per cent. of the colored population carries a recognized strain of white blood. Furthermore, mention is made that students of heredity point to the fact that the Negro population has doubled with generation till the 700,000 individuals of colonial times have become 10,000,000. An absurd statement in the article is that the question is sometimes raised as to whether it may become necessary to stop the colored people from having children in order that the "intellectual status" of the "American race" might not be hampered. The American public is warned to give the immigrants from Europe a wide birth when matrimony is considered, as in New York State alone 14,000 aliens are public charges in the hospitals for the insane. Who Is Responsible for Increase? "There are students of heredity who call attention to the menace of a Negro population which has double with each generation till the 700,000 individuals of colonial times have become 10,000,000. This very thought of miscegenation is repulsive, yet statistics show us that in some States more than 50 per cent. of the colored population carries a recognized strain of white blood. Here and there the question is raised as to whether it may not become necessary to restrict the fecundity of the Negro population that the intellectual status of the American race be not hampered by too large an incubus. "All these larger racial questions have a personal hearing for each of us if rightly considered; but our present purpose concerns largely the question of the application of the new laws of heredity to the average normal individual. "Questions of heredity in relation to the hordes of immigrants from the lower order of population of Europe are also receiving recognition. The fact that 14,000 aliens are public charges in the hospitals for the insane in New York State alone challenges public attention. It is not pleasing to think that our children must interbreed with the children of atavistic strains of the face." The Intermingling of Descendants. In his argument on the need of new blood the writer discusses the deterioration brought about by intermingling of descendants, and says: "In a point of fact all students of genealogy know that where a population is established in a restricted territory a few generations suffice to make the entire community related with recognized degrees of consanquinity. In such communities family traits and any heritable weaknesses become accentuated. The racial characteristics of New Englanders, for example, and of the Virginians, furnish illustration in point. In the long run the laws of heredity operate to bring to the surface the undesirable latent traits which, when they become sufficiently preponderant in the community, tell of racial degeneration. Nothing saves a closely inbred race that has reached this stage except the infusion of good new blood from the outside. But in view of this intermingling of descendants, in virtue of which everyone in a given region becomes more or less closely related to everyone else, how does anyone escape being tainted with a variety of heritable defects? It is fully conceded that the same laws of heredity apply to animals and to men. Indeed, the knowledge that is now being applied to human matings was first gained by experiment with plants and animals." Let us take, then, the case of two guinea pigs. If a black and a white guinea pig, both of pure strains, are mated, the offspring are all black. If a pair of these offspring of the first filial generation are interbred the progeny show three black individuals and one white in each group of four. Then, if the white members of the fraternity are GIFTS WE DISTRIBUTE TO AGE WORKERS interbred, they will produce only white offspring. They are to all intents and purpose of a pure white breed. Notwithstanding the fact that both their parents are black, the tendency of blackness has utterly disappeared from their germ-plasm. "If, in the meantime, the black members of the fraternity are interbred, it will presently be revealed that, whereas they all look alike, there are deep-seated differences between them. Certain among them, if interbred, will produce only black offspring. Regardless of the fact that one of their grandparents was white, all tendency to whiteness has disappeared from the germ-plasm. But there are others among the black members of the fraternity which, if interbred, produce both black and white offspring, in the proportions of three to one. "This seems remarkable enough, and the wonder grows when we learn that however, often the experiments are repeated the same results are obtained generation after generation. Of any four grandchildren (on the average) of a black and a white guinea pig, one is pure black with no tendency to whiteness; one is pure white, with no tendency to blackness; and two are individually black, but with a latent tendency to whiteness that will make one-fourth of their offspring white. "Thus it appears that the offspring of the same parents—brothers and sisters of the same litter—differ radically from one another not only in their personal traits but in the latent traits carried in their germ-plasm. Some are pure black, some are pure white, and some are mixed; and the same law of heredity accounts for them all." JOHN O. HOPKINS IS NOW CITY COUNCILMAN Choose to Represent the Sixth Ward of Saturday's Fastlane Held at Wilmington, Del. Republicans Elect Mayor and Seven Members of the City Council. Special to The New York Am WILMINGTON, Del., June 11.—The Negro citizens of this city are in a happy frame of mind, for John O. Hopkins was elected a member of the City Council from the Sixth Ward at last Saturday's election. The colored voters were loyal to Mr. Hopkins as were many white voters. Dr. Harrison W. Howell. Republican, was re-elected mayor. The Bull Moose candidate ran a poor third. The Republicans elected seven of the twelve members of the City Council. John O. Hopkins was born in Chester, Md., but has been a resident of Wilmington nearly all of his life. He conducts a drug store with Conwell Benton and is proprietor of the Hopkins Theatre, a motion picture house. Out of the 1,300 Republican voters in the Sixth Ward. 80 are Negroes NEW YORK ACADEMY'S SUCCESSFUL SEASON The New York Academy, formerly at 186 West 135th street, but now at 44 West 133d street, had a successful season during the term of 1912-13.

Anthene George, Proprietor of the Victoria Theatre, Harriburg, Lea- Case Brought by Negroes for Discriminating on Account of Color—Twelve White Jurors Return Vordict Special to The New York Ace: HARRISBURG, Pa., June 11.—Anthene George, proprietor of the Victoria Theatre, was tried Monday, June 9, before Judge McCarrell, for refusing accommodations on the first floor of his theatre to Negroes, and found guilty by a jury of twelve white men. On February 7 five Negroes, Frank N. Robinson, Harry Burris, Robert Nelson, Percy Allen, and Dr. H. C. Crumpton, purchased tickets for a performance at the Victoria, but when they applied for admission downstairs were informed by the proprietor that the place for Negroes was in the balcony. Upon refusing to take seats in the balcony they were offered their money back, but refused it. George admitted that he had made a rule that colored patrons should sit in the gallery because many white patrons had complained against mixing with colored people downstairs. A sign in the ticket window read: "The balcony of this theatre is provided for our colored patrons. If you do not want to sit in the balcony do not buy tickets, as they will not be honored in any other section of the theatre." Defendant's Attorney Sought to Prejudice Jury. Attorney for the defense, in summing up, attempted to appeal to the prejudices of the jury by saying that "if these men come for the purpose of mixing with the white girls and women in the dark downstairs of the theatre, then, of course, the defendant, by his restrictions, failed to accommodate them." The defense claimed that accommodations were not refused, but attempted to set up a right to say in what part of the house accommodations might be provided. Judge McCarrell in his charge, differed from the statements of the attorneys for the defense. Judge Kunkel, reviewing the case for the complainants, in answering the point made by the defense in regard to the right of the proprietor to set his patrons where he saw fit for the comfort of all his patrons, said: "He has no right to compel you to climb the stairs to the balcony. You have the right of choice. This is the law and if the law is wrong the appeal must be made to the Legislature." The jury was out three hours and returned a verdict of guilty. Sentence was deferred. The case was brought under the act of 1887, which makes it a misdemeanor for a theatre or amusement manager to refuse admittance on account of race or color. It is considered of great importance in its bearing on other amusement places. THURSDAY. RATIC VER NOTHING COMING IN." PROTEST AGAINST REMOVAL Women Do Not Take Kindly to Demise of Miss Grace Campbell on Probation Officer Mary M. B. Talbert Deliver Address at Meeting Held at Concord Baptist Church. Renewed interest among club women of Brooklyn was caused last week by the president of the Empire State Federation of Women's Clubs, Mrs. M. B. Talbert, of Buffalo, N. Y., who addressed the united clubs at Concord Baptist Church Thursday evening on the various phases of club work. She pictured the duo welcome to our fellow man in a most warm manner, concluding her remarks by wounding those present that "Whatsoever we mean, that also shall be prey." She went to Aunt Harriet Talbert shortly before her death and of the hallowed influence which still lingers with her. Mrs. M. J. Stuart, secretary of the federation, emphasized the value and importance of a united effort on the part of women, after which she spoke of the summary dismissal from the Urban League of Miss Grace P. Campbell, the only colored probation officer in Greater New York. The indignation of those present was most pronounced, and by a rising vote the clubs decided to protest against the manner of Miss Campbell's discharge. Mrs. M. C. Lawton, organizer, spoke briefly on organized womanhood and now it may be strengthened. Mrs. Alice Wiley-Seay, president of the Dorcas Home and Foreign Missionary Society, presided. At the close of the exercises refreshments were served by the Easter Bell Club, of which Mrs. Fanny Lawrence is president, and a social evening was spent. SEGREGATION CONTINUES Other Departments Fall in Line in the "Jim Crowing" of Negro Government Employee—President Wilson Fails to Answer Ralph W. Tyler's Letter Defining Attitude. Special to THE NEW YORK ACM WASHINGTON, D. C., June 10.—The segregation of Negro government employees goes on without interruption here, and the latest report is that the segregation of Negro employees in the office of the Recorder of Deeds, still presided over by a Negro, Henry Lincoln Johnson, has been ordered. That the matter has been officially brought to the attention of President Wilson THE AGE learns is true on reliable authority, and that the President has not yet interfered to order the segregation discontinued all here know. At the very beginning of this segregation movement, it is just learned, Ralph W. Tyler, then auditor for the Navy Department, had the boldness to officially bring the matter to the President's attention and to officially protest against it in the interest of the many Negro employees. It is said the only acknowledgment received to this protest was a very formal one, and a brief note from Mr. Tumulty, the President's secretary, stating it would be brought to the attention of the President. In view of the fact that no word has come from the President to stop segregation the only deduction to be made is that either the President is in sympathy with and approves of race segregation in the government here, or Mr. Tumulty, his secretary has overlooked bringing Mr. Tyler's letter to the attention of the President. The opinion prevails here that the President approves of segregation of Negro employees, and that Bishop Walters' assurance to the Negroes of the country, prior to the election, that Mr. Wilson was going to prove such an excellent friend to the race, was either made by the Bishop without any assurances to predicate his assurance on, or the Bishop intentionally misrepresented the President in order to secure for him Negro votes. A friend of Mr. Tyler who possesses a copy of the letter (Continued on Page 2.) Plans are being laid to reorganize the local branch of the Negro Business League, and new features are to be introduced which will make the league a stronger and more progressive factor for good in the community. The probabilities are that when the new ideas become operative the branch will become the largest and most influential in the country. New York business and professional men have affiliated with the local branch in the past primarily to encourage and develop the commercial instinct and the spirit of race patronage. For some time the majority of members have advanced the argument that there should be embodied in the aims and objects of the local organization features which would offer members some material recompense. To accomplish this end several of the most active members have, after a conference, devised ways and means to awaken additional interest, and at the next meeting of the local league will submit a proposition which they believe alluring. Within the league departments will be established, among them being a banking, a legal, a medical and a real estate department, and with the co-operation of all, each and every member will find it possible to be directly benefited. A special effort will be made to interest the business men and the real estate brokers, restaurateurs, tonsorial artists, etc. will be prevailed upon to lay aside personal differences and seek to make Harlem, with its community of interests, a show place of wide renown to those who are interested in the commercial progress of the New York Negro. The annual session of the National Negro Business League will be held at Philadelphia, August 20, 21 and 22, which promises to be more largely attended than previous meetings. The Philadelphia City Council has appropriated $5,000 to the Philadelphia league for the entertainment of visitors, and the members of the Quaker Branch are working like Trojans to make the session a banner one. In view of the unusual interest being manifested in the coming Philadelphia session and because of the close proximity of Philadelphia to New York, the local members are eager to send to the City of William Penn a large representation. There is quite a friendly rivalry over the selection of delegates. The annual election of officers of the local branch will be held some time in July. WASHINGTON, D. C., June 11—Hon. Ralph W. Tyler, former auditor for the navy, who was recently elected National Organizer for the National Negro Business League, has entered upon his duties, and is now on a tour in the South, visiting several cities in the interest of the league. During June Mr. Tyler's itinerary includes visit to each of the following cities: Montgomery and Birmingham, Ala.; Atlanta, Ga.; Greenville and Charlotte, N. C.; Danville and Lynchburg, Va.; Cumberland, Salisbury and Baltimore, Md.; and Wilmington, Del. During July he will visit Newark East Orange, Atlantic City and Jersey City, N. J.; Philadelphia, Harrisburg and Pittsburgh, Pa.; Wheeling, Charleston and Huntington, W. Va.; Lexington, Frankfort, Louisville, Owensboro, Henderson and Madisonville, Ky.; and Indianapolis, Ind. Two weeks prior to the annual meeting of the National Negro Business League in Philadelphia, will be spent by Mr. Tyler in Philadelphia, co-operating with the local league of that city in preparing to entertain the National organization August 20-22, 1913. MASONIC GRAND LODGE HOLDS ANNUAL SESSION At the annual session of the Masonic Grand Lodge of New York, hold June 4 and 5 at Masonic Temple, Eighth avenue and 46th street. Henry A. Spencer was re-elected Grand Master. The election of officers resulted as follows: Henry A. Spencer, Rochester, grand master; James R. Mason, Buffalo, deputy grand master; Davis W. Parker, New York, senior grand warden; John R. Deservency, New York, junior grand warden; Thomas H. Wright, New York, grand treasurer, Harry A. Williamson, Brooklyn, grand secretary; Jas C. Denham, New York, trustee for three years. The report of the financial secretary showed that the lodges of the First Masonic District (New York City) had in the treasury $17,000. There are eight lodges in the district. SCOTCHMAN IS "NUMOROUS" Richard Bennett, an Actor, Tella Large White Audience There Will Not Be a Negro Loft in America Within One Hundred Years—Veneral Diseases Will, Destroy Races. At the West End Presbyterian Church Sunday evening the subject of "Engenics" or "Sex Hygiene" interested a large congregation. The speakers were the Rev. Walter Laidlaw, the Rev. Edwin Keigwin, ex-Congressman W. S. Bennett and the Scotch actor, Richard Bennett, who was the principal orator of the occasion. Bennett, the actor, referred to the future of the American Negro in this manner: "You people are worried about the Negro problem and believe it troublesome. But I tell you the horrible venereal diseases will sweep the Negroes away and in less than one hundred years there will not be a Negro left in this country." This statement was unchallenged. The meeting adjourned. Two thousand white hearers went away firmly believing every Negro they meet is diseased or soon will be, and should be avoided. Many expressed belief that Bennett was a better comedian than an authority on the Negro. NEGROES ARE OUT: WHITE MEN ARE IN Special to THE NEW YORK ACM. JACKSONVILLE, Fl., June 10.-Joe Lee has been deposed as Collector of Internal Revenue at Jacksonville and Henry Hayes Lewis, a Wilson appointee, has succeeded him. Every Negro in the office of the Collector of Internal Revenue has been replaced with white men. The Negro chief deputy at Tampa has been discharged and a white man is now working in his place. The Tampa office was run entirely by colored men. Lewis says as fast as he can get white men to replace him he will do so. WHITE MASHER SERIOUSLY STABBED Embraced 19-year-old Maude Payne Who Took Penknife from Pocketbook and Stabbed First, Who Was Taken to Hospital—Eleven Stitches Necessary to Close Wound. Special to THE NEW YORK AMP. MINNEAPOLIS, Minn., June 10.—Because he had the temerity to accost on the street and embrace Miss Maude Payne, a 19-year-old colored girl, Frank Carnaby, white, 450 Eighth street, is in a serious condition at the City Hospital with a gash six inches long on the left side of the neck near the jugular vein. Miss Payne was arrested directly after the stabbing, but was later released. Miss Payne said she had been visiting friends on the East Side and was waiting for a Western avenue car when Carnaby approached and addressed her. He threw his arms about her and being unable to free herself by striking him with her fist, she drew a penknife from her handling and struck him across the neck. Eleven stitches were necessary to close the wound. Miss Payne said she called for assistance and when no one responded she struck with her knife. Stunned by the blow Carnaby fell to the sidewalk and when aid arrived Miss Payne was kneeling over her victim. Carnaby admitted that he did not know Miss Payne and declared that he spoke to her on the street. He denied embracing her. He told the police that he had been suffering from toothache for several days and had been drinking to allay the pain. The gash across Carnaby's neck extends from the left car to directly under the chin. ORGANIZE LEAGUE AT SPRINGFIELD Sensible to The New Year Ann. SPRINGFIELD, Ill.

Has Largest Circulation ENTHUSE OVER NEGRO REGIMENT Equity Congress Molds Big Jollification Meeting Sunday Afternoon PRAISE FOR GOV. SULZER Governor Unable to Attend but Sends Representative in the Person of Samuel Bell Thomas INDORSE PRIMARY BILL Assemblywoman Tom Kane makes speech and congratulates Equity Congress on its fight for Regiment. Members of the Equity Congress assembled at their headquarters, 89 West 135th street, Sunday afternoon and held a jollification meeting over the signing of the Kane bill, providing for organization of a colored regiment in New York by Gov. Sulzer. A large and enthusiastic crowd was on hand, and Gov. Sulzer was showered with praises for the outspoken stand he took in favor of the colored regiment. Ma. C. W. Fillmore, first vice-president of Equity Congress, and the head of the Provisional Regiment, presided. Although the Equity Congress is a non-partisan organization, indorsement was given Gov. Sulzer's State-wide Primary Bill, and those present promised to work in the interest of the measure. The chief executive of the State was unable to be present on account of a previous engagement. He sent as his representative Samuel Bell Thomas, a close friend of the Governor, who, in congratulating the members of Equity Congress for coming out victories in the long fight for a colored regiment, said in part: Governor's Representative Speaks. I feel deeply the honor that has been conferred upon me by His Excellency, the Governor of this State, in asking me to represent him on this splendid occasion. It was with regret that he had to decline the cordial invitation extended by your body, but the obvious duties of his high office and the great problems at this time before him for solution, have prevented him from accepting your invitation as well as others which have been recently extended, to speak in various parts of the State. I am逼摸 by him to be speak his sincere appreciation of your invitation and to extend to you his thanks for the splendid support you are giving him in his fight to restore the government to the people. While I am a poor substitute for the Governor, at the same time, am glad to be able to come as his representative, and say a few words of encouragement regarding the work you are doing in the upbuilding of your race. Assemblyman Tom Kane was called upon to address the Congress, and in a few words told of how he had introduced the bill to organize a colored regiment, to become a part of the National Guard of the State, at the instance of the Equity Congress. A committee of three, composed of Messrs. Richardson, Otlear and Cosey, was appointed to draft resolutions thanking Gov. Sulzer for signing the Kane bill and further assuring him of the support of the Equity Congress in his State-wide primary right. Dr. V. T. Thomas was among those who worked reasolutely for the passage of the bill. It was Dr. Thomas who got Maj. Fillmore, representing the Equity Congress, and Robert N. Wood, leader of the United Colored Democracy, which resulted in the representatives of the two organizations agreeing to cooperate to secure favorable consideration of the measure in the Senate. ST PAUL, Minn. June 10.—By a recent act of the Minnesota Legislature the office of assistant matron at the Ramsey County Jail was created. The new position has been filled by the appointment of a colored woman. THE AGE FIGURES PATTERSON, N. J., June 11. -George Catlet, of 12th avenue, caught Charles Jackson robbing his home. Jackson has been traveling through New Jersey imposing mon colored families by securing board and then skipping out. An article in THE Ace from Pasadena, May 29th, put W. J.

The Man Farthest Down By Author of "Up from Slavery," "My Larger Education. Etc. This is the record of a trip made by Dr. Washington for the purpose of studying conditions in Europe, and it is a most illuminating book. For there is no one whose keen sympathy and understanding enables him really to depict the conditions of the man farthest down like the author of "Up From Slavery;" and the great beauty of it is that it is filled with such optimistic observations founded on solid fact and deduction as "Bad as conditions are in some places, I don't think that I visited any place where things are not better now than they were some years ago." His journey was a journey among the saddest spectacles in European life. As he says: "Some people will think, perhaps, that everything I was looking for was commonplace or bad, and that I avoided everything extraordinary or worth while looking at. My only excuse is that I was, in fact, not looking for the best but for the worst. I was hunting for the man farthest down." The inspiration of the book is that, having found the man farthest down, he shows an abundance of hope for him.

FULFILLING THEIR PROMISES Certain Negro Democrats pretend to feel greatly outraged and surprised that the white clerks have petitioned to the Postmaster General, a Democrat from Texas, asking that the Negro clerks be segregated in the postal service. We do not believe that any Negro in America can be honestly surprised at, what is going on. The Democratic party from its very origin has been against the rights of the Negro. It has published this in every corner of the country. The Democratic Party has plainly told the Negro that it did not want him in its councils and that it did not want his votes. The Democratic party has plainly told the Negro that this is a white man's country, and the Negro should not serve in any office except in the capacity of a menial. In the face of all this straightforward talk we say again that there is no just ground for any Negro Democrat to pretend to feel surprised and outraged at the actions of the Democratic party. Certainly the most humiliated and disgusted Negroes in America ought to be those who advised our race to vote the Democratic ticket and are now engaged in pretending that they feel outraged because the Democratic party is doing what it has always said it would do when it got into power. FIRST FREEDMAN SCHOOL. According to the New York Sun's obiturian, the first school for the Freedman was established at Drummondtown, Va., in 1862, by the Rev. and Mrs. Thomas L. Poulson, acting under a commission to do so issued by Gen. Benjamin F. Butler. Mr. Poulson has just died at Philadelphia, at the age of eighty-two years, after fifty-two years of active work as a minister of the Methodist Episcopal church. He was also an active temperance worker and lecturer. He served during the Civil War as chaplain of Maryland Volunteers, and it was while doing the work of a chaplain that Gen. Butler commissioned him and his wife to establish the school. Some of the best work done for the relief and betterment of Negro refugees in the Union lines, during and after the war, was done by the chaplains of the Union army and in the schools established after the war under Gen. Oliver O. Howard as head of the Freedmen's Bureau. Gen. John Eaton, operating under the immediate direction of Gen. Grant, was one of the wisest and best of those chaplains, Gen. Howard, Gen. S. C. Armstrong and Gen. Clinton B. Fisk being among the most helpful, of the Christian soldiers engaged in the work of Negro education after the war,—their names being perpetuated in Howard University, Fisk University and Hauntem Institute. A small text book should be prepared and used generally in our schools of higher and secondary education giving the facts as to the pioneer, founders, teachers and benefactors' of the educational work among the Negroes. Our men and women should be taught in their schools the history of the devoted Northern men and women who gave of their time and money to lay the foundations upon which others have built so wisely and well. Such peo- WHO IS THE GOVERNOR OF NEW YORK? The Governor of New York is the chief executive of the state, and from Gov. William S. Dudley in a letter unto him any of his Republican predecessors in office, has signed the act authorizing the mastering in of the regiment. This is a great victory for Tux Ann and all the other agencies that have contended for twenty-five years that the Negroes of the State should have representation in the National Guard. All the previous governors of New York who have passed upon the question, from Frank S. Black down, mostly Republicans, have been too weak to overcome the objections, mostly on the social features of the service, of their Adjutant-Generals and staffs, against the authorization of a Negro Regiment; Gov. Sulzen had the same objections to overcome, and overcame them, brushing them aside as a strong man should, as having nothing to do with the merits of the case. That is the sort of Governor the State of New York should have all of the time; a Governor disposed to treat all the elements of the citizenship by the same rule of justice and fair play. IT IS UP TO THE KNIGHTS OF PYTHIAS. It is strictly up to the Knights of Pythias, which has a membership of some 200,000, to declare that they will tamely submit to the outrage perpetrated upon their chancellor, S. W. Green, of New Orleans, by a white Florida mob and by the sheriff and other public officials of Escambia county, at Milton. It is up to them, we say, to tamely submit to the outrage, or fight. Which will they do? Policy, diplomacy, a desire to "stand well with their white neighbors," as Negro time-servers and knee-quakers have come to phrase and prate it, suggests that they tamely submit to it, in the hope that the iron heel will become a velvet heel; but self-preservation, which in every crucial situation, is the first law of nature, suggests that they fight. This Ack has always counseled peace until the other party broke it; then it has counseled a mainly contention for justice to the finish. We give that same counsel now in the case of Chancellor Green. The estimate that we put upon ourselves, our rights and our feelings is the estimate others will place upon us, or be compelled to show why they do not. The facts are as follows: On leaving New Orleans recently for Ocala, Fla., upon official business of his order, Mr. Green secured a Pullman car berth. When he reached De Fumak Springs a white mob threatened to do him violence and Mr. Green was induced by the train conductor to go into "the Jim Crow car." On the return trip Mr. Green secured a drawing room in the Pullman car. When the train reached Milton eighteen white persons invaded the car, determined to lynch Mr. Green, but the sheriff spirited him away and kept him in jail until the next morning, when he was arraigned and fined $25 for violating the Separate Car law of Florida. He was then escorted to Pensacola and from thence reached New Orleans without further trouble. Mr. Green has a good case against the Louisville and Nashville Railroad and against the State of Florida. He was behind him a powerful fraternal organization. It is strictly up to him and the Knights of Pythias to enter suits in the Federal courts against the railroad and the State of Florida and prosecute them to a final decision in the Supreme Court. PRESIDENT WILSON GOT NO LUNCHEON. One of the most humiliating things that can happen to a hungry or thirsty person is to go into a public place and ask for what he wants, and, instead of getting prompt and courteous service, be starved out of countenance or told, with rudeness and vulgarity, that what he wants "is all out" or "not kept in stock" or "we don't serve your kind!" A person so treated loses his appetite or thirst at once, gets fighting mad, and begins to use back talk not printed in the Ten Commandments or the Sunday-School catechisms and leaflets. Very often the police have to be called in to suppress the rumpus and a doctor to sew up the wounds; occasionally an undertaker is needed instead of the doctor. It is not a pleasant experience, but one that Negros, Latin Americans, Jews, Japanese, Chinese and East Indians have to contend with every day in the year somewhere in the United States, Asia, Africa and Europe wherever the white man sells food and drink, and is numerically strong enough to draw the color line. There are wars and rumors of wars in the sign of the white man's color line, and before the end of it is reached the map of the world and its balance of power may be changed not once but many times. Unusual interest, therefore, has been taken in the fact that President Wilson and his automobile family party were recently turned away from a Baltimore restaurant, not so much because the place was full as because of the way the young woman clerk acted, because she did not recognize the President's party. The New York Times, which dearly loves the President, gave the following account of the incident in its issue of May 31st: Early in the afternoon they drove into Baltimore to obtain lunchoon. Arriving mannounced, they first tried a North Charles Street restaurant. "Few recognized the President as his car drew up at the curb in front of the restaurant, and only cursory glances were given the visitors as Miss Margaret Wilson stepped from the car and made her way into the restaurant, the rest of the party following slowly behind. "Have you a table for our party" she asked one of the waitresses. "Receiving no reply, according to those who were within hearing, she repeated the question with no better results. Then the President's daughter turned on her heel and walked from the room, telling the others that they could not be accommodated. "The party then recurrent their automobile and drove to a hotel, where they are their luncheon in the main dining room." Now, it is the silent contempt of the waitress that must have cut the daughter of the President to the quick and made the President think thoughts he did not utter; we say, may have, because a hungry President is only human. That happened to the President of the United States, "unannounced," in Baltimore, where William Lloyd Garrison was once jailed and Frederick Douglas once caulked ships. Now, let all The Act readers shut the eyes and open the ears and imagine what would have happened in Baltimore if Frederick Douglas and his family party, loudly announced in advance, had arrived at the same restaurant, as President Wilson did, in his automobile, and had tent his daughter to enquire if the "reservation" had been made. Now, open the eyes and shut the ears and tell us what you imagined. Saith the Good Book: "Righteousness exalteth a Nation, but sin is a reproach to any people." The heart beats of race discontent are heard around the globe. ple as the Rev. Mr. and Mrs. Poulson should not be forgotten. Without them and such as they, of whom Sister Joanna P. Moore is a living example, the larger work of Eaton, Howard, Fisk, Armstrong and others could not have been done, even with the help of the Peabody, Slater, Hand and other splendid funds. 8.000 POSTAL SNAKES. People do not like to be designated as a type of any sort of animal, but most people are of some animal type whether they desire it or not, and usually think and act after the manner of the animal type, whom they either serve or compel to serve them. Before the Christian era the serpent in the grass and jungle was the type of the servant—which, to be consistent, should be spelled "servent," by the sound of it, in whatever capacity employed. In our time the serpent type has become the snake type in the grass and jungle and the sneak or "snake" type of men, and is often both a "snake" and "servent." Take the 8,000 white postal clerks who are reported to have petitioned Postmaster. General Burleson to separate the Negro postal clerks to themselves, so that they may not boss over or work in the same mail cars with them—what are those 8,000 clerks but so many public serpents of the people who want to rise up in the mail service against the 2,000 Negroes, who got into the Railway Mail service and earned their standing by the same intellectual and moral tests as the white 8,000! They are just so many white serpents who are playing the part of common "snekes" in the postal service, deeming their Negro fellow-citizens in the service to be not like them. So they are not, but in this wise, that no black or yellow citizen ever denies the white one the common right, and privilege of earning his living by his side, or of sharing with him his provisions and shelter in distress. We have fallen upon evil days, when the white serpents and "snekes" of the nation, whose heads were bruised at Appomattox Court House, after four years of bloody war, now rule in the councils of the Government, having wormed their way through forty of the forty-eight states. But the evil days will pass away, and the serpents and "snekes" will be driven from power again after many days. So let the Negro saw wood and save the chips from the fire, as so many pennies laid aside in banks, in land and in business ventures and development that will help to give and fix the Negro's place in the national life of the present and the future. the state legislature, but none of the other brotherhood of men in the population years. We have invariably found that there was a wide distinction in the land statement and the smoking application of the principle, whether in politics, in church, or in civic and charity work. The ACE has been insisting that some proper provision should be made for the protection of young Negro girls brought before the New York courts, such as is made by the State and private institutions for white girl delinquents, but we have not at any time admitted that Negro girls could or should not be cared for by those institutions, and especially by the State institutions, the Hudson and Bedford Homes. The State has no constitutional right to make, distinction between white and colored girls in those homes. To do so is to draw the color line between citizens. For instance, we find the following commication in the New York Sun: Sir: At the last meeting of the season of the Conference of Organizations for Assisting Young Women, held at the offices of the Women's Municipal League on May 16, the following resolution was passed: "Resolved. That we as a body heartily indorse, because of our intimate knowledge of the great and rapidly increasing need of such an institution, the proposed Sojourner Truth Home for Delinquent Colored Girls, named for a noted leader of the race, and which has applied for incorporation. As practical workers we know that few if any colored girls can or should be received in homes for white girls, that the State homes at Hudson and Bedford are overcrowded, and that no place now exists in Greater New York to which colored girls who are brought up in the courts can be sent. "We therefore hope that the committee's appeal for support from the public will receive a generous response. Checks should be made payable to Mrs. George W. Seligman, 23 West Ninety-first Street, New York City."

Why was it deemed necessary by those who represented the Sojourner Truth Home in the conference to subscribe to the statement that "as practical workers we know that few if any colored girls can or SHOULD be received at homes for white girls" and to sanction the State's lawless discrimination in the Hudson and Bedford Homes by the beggarly excuse that they are overcrowded, when the truth is the committing magistrates seem to have adopted a rule not to send colored delinquent girls to them. It should not be the business of the State but of the county to make the proper provision for the care of delinquent girls, regardless of race and color. How much annually do the eleven white charity organizations signing the resolution herewith receive toward their support from the city and county of New York, and how much from their benevolent patrons? The Act refuses to admit that colored girls CANNOT, and SHOULD NOT be received with white girls in homes maintained by the State or private charity homes supported in whole or in part by State, city and County appropriations. The constitution of the State makes no provision for any such race and color discrimination. We need the Sojourner Truth Home for Delinquent Girls, but we object to jamming the word "colored" into the incorporated name for which Sojourner Truth sufficiently stands, and giving as an excuse for its existence and maintenance a barefaced lie. We believe in the brotherhood of man and the sisterhood of woman, and not in Humbug. The right of a State to make any law that will violate the treaty law, which the Constitution declare are "the supreme law of the land," and thus provoke war with a friendly nation has been acknowledged by President Wilson in the case of California, which threatens to enact a land law aimed at the Japanese which may provoke war. California has no constitutional right to enact such law. The President has put himself and the country in a very false and awkward position by admitting that it has. A State is a big thing in the United States, often much bigger than it should be for the good of all the States, but it is but a very small thing in the estimation of a foreign nation, which recognizes and deals only with all of them as one in the Government at Washington. Color prejudice has cost the United States a great deal of blood and money, but it begins to look as if it would insist upon paying a great deal more, at home and abroad. Bearer of the following agents: J. Merman Weeds, Atlantic City, N. J. Jim Johnson, Atlantic City, N. J. Jefferson Sampson, Kansas City, Mo. What has become of the once famous New Haven Negro battalion of the National Guard of Connecticut? The Negro should be represented in the National Guard of every State and have one-tenth of the authorized army strength of the United States. At the last moment Gov. Tener vetoed the bill authorizing a Negro regiment of the Pennsylvania National Guard. We drop a tear on the grave of the dead hope. Gov. Tener is a Republican of the new school, and like many another does not know the Negro Joseph, "the Blind Samson in the land." Vice-President Marshall says "the average politician of America is interested only in the election returns." That lets the average Negro politician out for good, because if he does, not get anything before the election returns he does not get anything after. After the sun goes down on election day his "interest" knocks off until the sun rises on another. The movement to require a health certificate of those who apply for a marriage license has appeared in White House circles at Washington, along with grape juice and white radiance on the side, and separation of blacks, whites and yellows in everything looming large and dark in the background. We shall have so many laws soon that we may have to have all other employments to properly obey them. The Indianapolis Freeman has reached the conclusion that Bishop Alexander Walters is getting used to his job as "titular head of the Negro contingent of the Democratic party" and "is fitting in better with his duties, speaking in that big general way which statesmen and politicians find so expedient. He expressed himself as having implicit confidence in President Wilson." "Tip toe softly; there's crepe on the White House door—for the Negro. Forty members of the Leopard Society have just been hanged in Sierra Leone, a British colony on the west coast of Africa. The society is a secret one, and 'practices cannibalism and human sacrifices, it is alleged. It is the Mendi tribe, which has given the British authorities much trouble. "Wilf not some native of Sierra Leone send The Arg, confidentially, a true statement about the Leopard Society, and the sort of 'trouble' it has given the British authorities. Cannibalism is an awful crime to hitch upon any people. Speaking of the outcome of the recent Southern Sociallogical Congress, the Rev. C. M. Tanner says, in the Southern Christian Recorder, that he never heard white people speak out so openly and bravely against lynch law and other evils that make the South as bad as it is for Negroes. From all account the Congress knew the white predominant but unspoken word was, "We white folks must save our civilization from the mad practices and tendencies of white folks." Very good. Let them keep at the good work. Col. Roosevelt won his suit against Editor Newell, who perjured himself like a gentleman, and got six cents damages. "Deleighted!" he declared when it was legally established that he is not "a drunkard." Anyhow, the New York Times says "the Roosevelt punch" has broken into in Philadelphia with a long shriek. It is hallled as a non-hocxotist. In ingredients are milk, milk and sugar with the brandy and sugar and "the Roosevelt punch" would be one of the best of summer drinks for babies and grown-ups. Brandy, in large or small doses, is one of the most dangerous spirits that go down the throat. The Right Rev. Charles Brent, Episcopal Bishop of the Philippine Islands, took steerage passage from Liverpool to New York, with 1,441 immigrants for companions, and said he enjoyed the experience with the multitude more than he could have done with the 205 elect in the first cabin. Perhaps. He learned more anyhow. The 205 elect are usually very common place and stupid money bazaar or soon to be. The serious people who know what the tough side of life and desire to better it are usually to be found in the steerage of ships and back alloys and cheap tenements of cities. Few bishops seek them out and the average preacher passes them by on the other side. The official church organs are giving much space to that portion of the membership which thinks "all is not well in Bethel," or, "all is not well in Zion." A writer in the Southern Christian Recorder thinks Bishop Chappelle should not be allowed to "blah things" in the official organ of Bethel, and Bishop Clinton thinks a writer should not be allowed to do so in the official organ of Zion. "Take it in the proper tribunal," they exclaim. Surely there are great grievances in proper discussion in the official organ so that the membership may know the facts. But the 'writer who takes up three columns of space in statement and trade and one paragraph in facts should rebuke himself to his own face and think slower and write shorter. Mayor Gaynor says the professional bondage have been run out of business in New York City and that the effort to discredit the 10,000 police because of the few grafters among them, whom they desire weeded out, has failed." I expected more exposures of graft than have occurred," he says. Perhaps, anyhow, the police department has in the past stood the ordinary citizen on his head with such persistent show of power that graft and other things might follow, that the shake-up it has been going through the past two years should teach it a useful lesson it will not forget. It is the general disposition of the servants of the people to be- "PEER OF THE ARCTIC CIR. CLE." A. A. of the unpleasant DuBois incident and the Seattle citizen in the issue of The Age. I would like to add my little "stick" while the "sticking is good." I enclose two post cards, poems on Dr. Washington, a Dr. DuBois piece. You will note by a clipping from the Seattle Sun, one of our daily papers, referring to the publication of these cards by me. Our mayor, Hon. Geo. F. Cotterill, read from the poem while introducing Dr. Washington to a Seattle audience. A like courtesy was extended. Dr. DuBois, Cotterill, wrote one of the DuBois cards by way of introducing Dr. DuBois to his audience. After Dr. Washington's address, I solicited and obtained his personal consent to publish and sell these cards. Not only did he grant me this happy privilege, but he has also thanked me for my assistance. I attribute that my cards pay him. So much for Dr. Washington, the "peerless peard of the people." In a like manner I attempted to obtain a like privilege from Dr. Du Bols, with this difference: After much "kowtowing" and sandy bows and salamans I succeeded in meeting this "Poe of the Arctic Circle." My presence having thus been made known him on account of his acceptance with the remarks: "That anyone can write a poem, but it is a crime to publish it." Well, I realized then that I was "some small fry," and it would be use- less to try further to interest such a mighty potentate of intellect as this man seemed to be. So, and I more potentate "living" "English" this time, and sneaked out of the presence of "Lord Intellect." Waiting upon the outside of the building was my poor discouraged and muchly more disgruntled muse. We hled ourselves to our secret retreat "Har from the (madden) (with) poem" (with) There we communed together for long intervals, and the results of our philosophizing can best be shown in the "pome." I am sending herewith. You will please note that I am not calling this effort a "poem," because "anyone can write a poem," because it only he and I who can write this particular "pome." The committee having in charge the Du Bois lecture was also inoculated with some of that Du Bois infection, since they would not let me sell the cards before or after the lecture, living or dying, and thus privilege the same excuse that I should have obtained first the doctor's permission. I can forgive that committee, however, seeing that the "dear doctor" administered to them the same dose of discourtesy. For the same reason I forgave that my music is inimitable. My muse will never forkive him—no, never! Yours for publicity. C. R. V. RANDOLPH. 435 Twenty-second Avenue, Seattle. Wash. June 6, 1913. PROUD DU BOIS AND A BLACK-FACE BOY. To "Soul of a Black Folk" hear today. The dead word whose has to say: Ta addom a sadd song he sings. To-day his lyre with anguish rings. For the soul through puppets' pieces and dark deceit; And cramping cowards who'd destroy Proud Dullois and a black-face boy. An honest heart did tribute pay. In simple verse, the only way. He wished to be as proud Dullois, the learned man. His efforts met Dullois' disdain. For this proud man did not refrain; He wished to be as showful as when black-face boy met him on floor. With wishing look, a seemful thrust. Ich words chosen spoke DuBois thus: "Any one to the publiab or recte" But anyone to the publiab or recte? Noble words—but a soul was stumd¹. To this black boy much harm was done: Was not this man his heir? This proud DuBois, the learned man? Proud man, you praise of Color line, A line with rant and whine; A greater wrong I see to day— The hue-caste that your face portray Proud proof, you praise Whiteness that freezes late And blended blood from every hue. But if black face no credit due? Caste of color—opression's shield? \ weapon which we dare not wield; And hue so fair, canst then feel proud Neeloul? Fairer-bue脸 this lesson taught; A more false one never was brought; To darker man, O proud DuBois. Your scorn has stung this black face boy. Civil Service and Jersey City. To the Editor of The Age; A young man, presumably colored, writes to a Jersey City newspaper asking if colored men are eligible for civil service examinations for the local post office. He asks if they would they be pointed clerks or carriers if they passed or would they be discriminated against. There is only one answer to this question of course. There is just the same chance for a colored person as in the case of a colored civil service and in this one instance (Jersey City) there is undoubtedly more chance, which is seen from the fact that the four colored clerks in that institution were the only colored men appointed for that office. They were all from the South and strangers in town when they were appointed. In Jersey City there is fine chance for many more colored men to be appointed in the new post office in about six months that office being changed to "distribution office" there is a chance for at least one hundred more clerks. These can all be colored if the colored men are appointed, the hint, make application and pass, the examination, which is very simple. You first write to the Civil Service Commission, Custom House, New York City, for application blank and full particulars. Fill out the blank and forward to the Commission and they notify you of the date of the examination. The examination consists of: 1. spelling 20 simple words; 2. penmanship; 3. arithmetic, consisting of simple accounts, fractions and decimals; 4. U. S. history; 5. U. S. geography. Any one who has not had the advantage of a common school education and thinks he is not qualified for the examination is the prepared for name for $10 in the numerous civil service schools in New York. Contributes to Business League. Philip A. Payton, the New York real estate broker, has forwarded to Emmett J. Scott, secretary of the National Negro Business League, $10 to be used to further the work of the League. He continued that he did not New York recognition in the National Guard. Governor Suller again has demonstrated, what so many of his supporters have said, that he is a great man for years, that he is a great man; that he can rise above race, justice and religious bigotry, and do justice to the people of man—rather than of race or religion. The Governor wrote upon the status books of the State of New York three great laws that will forever endear him to all Friends of the State, but the law, which will do more than any other single act, in all the history of our State, for justice and equality to all, and wipe out race prejudice and race hatred. Secondly, the apposition of Norwegian and appropriating $35,000, fittingly celebrate the fiftieth anniversary of the Emmanation Proclamation. This great event certainly should be commemorated by the State of New York, but the justice was done in matter. Thirdly, the law giving the Negro citizens their rights regarding the National Guard. For a quarter of a century they have been struggling for this recognition, and for all these the recognition of opportunity was shut in their faces. At last came William Sulzer to the executive head of the greatest State in the Union. He was brave enough and big enough, and far seeing enough to do justice. What he has done in these matters to the greatness of great things he has accomplished, is a tribute to his head and heart, and will be a monument to his greatness as a Governor more enduring than marble and brass. Let the naggers nag. Let the little men of little brains wall and whine. Let the critics criticize. They cannot govern. They cannot Governor who goes on doing good; on doing right; in doing justice; on fighting for progress and humanity. All honor to the brave man William Sulzer, who works for the people. All honor to the brave man William Sulzer, who loves to do right simply because it is right, who asks for no credit and no praise, but who always commands his people with the approval of his own conscience.

N.Y. & W. corner 33th St. IIDAE KLINE JOHNSON Propertor THEATRICAL COMMENT TWO representative colored vau- deville acts have dissolved par- tnership. From London comes word that Hart & Johnson are no longer teammates, and from Long Acre Square the information is imparted that the team of Cooper & Robinson is no longer regarded as a salable com- modity in the United Booking Offices. Hart & Johnson have separated for business reasons. They are the best of friends, but each found it to advantage to agree to a dissolution of partnership. Hart has signed a three-year contract with Clifford Fisher and Ben Nathan, managers of the London Opera House, to appear in revues put on by them at their London theatre, while Johnson has signed a two-year contract to supervise the musical numbers in the London Opera House productions. T KING BACH Effie—KING & GEE—Lottie In Vaudeville In conjunction with his duties as musical supervisor, Johnson will conduct a studio where he will give private instructions in vocal and instrumental music. When not devoting their time and attention to the revues at the London Grand Opera House both Hart and Johnson will take fliers in vaudeville, doing single turns. The present arrangement means that neither performer will return to America for the next two years. The fact that J. Rosamond Johnson is contemplating matrimony and will soon wed in London a young lady who resides in Jacksonville. Fla., who is to sail for Europe within a few days, bears out the report that he will not set foot on American soil very soon. Charlie Hart's wife is with him. When Hart & Johnson sailed for abroad in January they had ten weeks booking in vaudeville. They originally planned to return to America in June or July after filling their vaudeville engagements. They made arrangements to appear in the revue "Come Over Here," which opened at the London Opera House in April. As the show was a big success they gave up the idea of returning at once to America. At the first performance it was easily seen that Charlie Hart was the principal fun-maker of the entire company and his success has been such that Fisher & Nathan have determined to keep him in their employ for three years. J. Rosamond Johnson has never cared for the stage, his ambition being to write and teach music. So when he had an opportunity to withdraw from the cast shortly after the show's initial performance and was asked to supervise all musical numbers for the London Opera House he accepted the offer with alacrity. With Hart making good on the stage and Johnson off, they entered into an agreement to dissolve partnership. The Hart & Johnson alliance was formed in the spring of 1912. Charlie Hart was formerly of the team of Avery & Hart, which was broken up owing to the death of "Dan" Avery. J. Rosamond Johnson was a member of the well-known team of Cole & John- son, which went out of existence upon the tragic death of "Bob" Cole. Owing to the opposition of large time managers to book colored acts Hart & Johnson found it difficult to get consecutive bookings in this country. For the 'steenth time Cooper & Robinson have agreed to disagree. They have parted and made up more than any standard colored act in vaudeville. In the past six years they have done the breaking up act over half a dozen times. During the theatrical season of 1912-13 they enjoyed the distinction of being the only-colored act to be favored with consecutive booking on the big time. How they managed to get work from week to week out of the United Booking Offices has puzzled many. But from last September until a few weeks ago they entertained in the two-a-day theatres about the country, nevertheless. Robinson, the comedian, is an entertainer of the first water, while Cooper is a good straight man and a business man of ability. But for some reason they find it difficult to get along. As a rule, upon separation, each gets work, ```markdown ``` doing a single turn over the smaller circuits. Then as soon as they get together they are booked by the United. Robinson has been more fortunate during the last split than before, for the big time people have seen fit to book him without Cooper. Robinson opened at the Greenpoint Theatre, Brooklyn, last week and scored. Just what are the future plans of Cooper have not been made public. CRESCENT THEATRE Talking motion pictures attracted many to the Crescent Theatre the first half of the week. They should be referred to as singing rather than talking pictures, as those put on at the Crescent worked in conjunction with a phonograph, which introduced the pictures in songs. Edison and other inventors will have to give more time and study to talking pictures before the mechanical combination becomes a winner. Harper and Gillam made their usual bit. Stamford McKissick did a single turn and Coleman and Dumont appeared in a sketch which should be reduced to a single in justice to the male sketch artist. LAFAYETTE THEATRE A pretty act, with pretty girls, pretty costumes, pretty singing and dancing and a pretty stage setting tuttily describes the act known as Brownie and His Dancing Girls, staged by Aida Overton Walker, which is at the Lafayette Theatre for the week. Will Brown has most of the work to do, and does it well. He is appearing to better advantage than ever before. The eye number could be put overmore effectively. Tila Bevens works with "Browne" in one number, and Hazel Thompson pleases in a dance specialty. The other members of the act whose work is deserving of praise are Kathlyn Jones, Louse Cook, Nettie Anderson and Cordella Garner. When last seen in Harlem, Moss and Frye had a strong act, but they have made it much stronger. They do more talking than singing, but can afford to, as their dialogue is chock full of laughs. Moss is a comedian who has his own method of creating laughter, and it would not be surprising if this team was not seen some day at the head of a show. Theo Martin and Company presented a sketch, "Other People's Money," which proved one of the strongest comedy sketches that has been at the Lafayette, Palfrey, Barton and Brown, trick bicycle riders, and Jane Nackel, in songs completed the bill. Manager Benjamin Nibur is making every effort to please the patrons of the Lafayette Theatre; and he has outdone himself by making arrangements to have the Negro Players appear at the Lafayette next week in a special engagement, commencing Monday afternoon. Despite the strong attraction there will be no marked change of policy in the charge of admission, and throughout the week the same prices will prevail as are charged Wednesday evenings. The schedule of prices follow: Matinee, orchestra 15 cents, balcony 10 cents and boxes 35 cents. Evening, orchestra 2. cents, balcony 15 cents and boxes 50 cents. The Negro Players is a new organization which gave its first stage performance at the Casino Theatre, Philadelphia, a few weeks ago, attracting favorable attention. The entertainment furnished is novel and different in many respects from that given by any other colored show. The company will present "The Old Man's Boy," an original play in three acts. Alex Rogers and Henry S Creamer head the cast. Others in the company are Harrison Stewart, Andrew A. Copeland, Bessie Kinney Payne Alice Gorgas, Ruth Sherry, Viola Stewart, Robert Murray, Harold Parker. Andrew Bishop, Cassio Norwood, Lavinia Rogers, Jessie Ellis, Marie Lewis and an augmented orchestra. Two performances will be given daily, one starting at 2 o'clock in the afternoon and the other at 8 o'clock in the evening. THEATRICAL JOTTINGS.

Moseley, proprietor of the Pekin Theatre, Norfolk, Va., has made arrangements to provide the colored citizens of that city with an up-to-date theatre, which will be devoted to clean vaudeville and motion pictures. The old Pekin Theatre is being torn down and a new playhouse will be erected on the present size. The new house will have a large auditorium and balcony and the stage will be large enough to put on musical shows. The new theatre will be ready for business by July 4. THE BATTLE TCOOPER & ROBINSON Who have again dissolved partnership DRAMATIC CLUB SUCCESS. The Howard Theatre was filled Saturday night, May 31, with an appreciative audience to witness the Washington Dramatic Club's presentation of "The Merchant of Venice." The club scored a notable triumph. A member of the cast was "line perfect," while lines were spoken with intelligence. The costumes were elaborate and complete. The scenery, painted and arranged by Meersa. Nixon and Milton, teachers of art in our high schools, was one of the prominent features. The arrangement and management of the light effects were by Arthur C. Newman, principal of our new vocational school. Shakespeare wrote the play to bring out the character of "Shylock," which was impersonated by Nathaniel Guy. He is a student of the drama and a born actor and his Shylock was complete and satisfying. As Portia, Mrs. Janifer Taylor fulfilled every expectation. She was charming in the attractive gowns and in the elegant dresses of Morocco, "Princes of Morocco," showed histronic talent of a high order. He also took the part this year of Salanto. tiano, G. E. Duurloy; Lorenzo, T. M. Gregory; the Duke, Samuel D. M. thewe; Barron, Miss Helen Harris Jessica; Mr. Joseph H. Douglas Clerk of Court, Miss Ray Farley; Leonardo, Spa Deckey; Salarino, Eugene Davidson; Old Gobbs, Benjamin Washington; Bassano, Albert Knoval, completed the cast. The players were "coached" by Nathan Thalassi. The details of the staring were worked out by Mr. Guy and Mrs. Anna J. Cooper, the founder of the club and its manager and president. It is Mrs. Cooper's idea that the race can be reached and lifted up through its amusements. The Washington Dramatic Club and its splendid performance is an expression of what she thinks ought to be. The Club plays forgive one standard play at least each year. Last year this club rendered with signal success "A Midsummer Night's Dream." Washington Club Gives French Play. The patrons of the Y. W. C. A. Washington, D. C., were filled Friday night with friends of the "Cercle Francois" for the closing exercises of the club which were given in French. The program consisted of recitations, stories and anecdotes, and a one-act comedy, "La Lettre 'Changree,'" by E. Lableche. "La Lettre Chargée" is a one-act fantasy abounding in humorous situ- "JUNETIME IS FROGTIME" ANNUAL FROLIC AND Summernight's Dance OF THE FROGS (INCORPORATED) At MANHATTAN CASINO MONDAY EV'G, JUNE 30, 1913 Souvenirs for the Ladies tions and comedy.

Gray, "Hector," and Mrs. Anna J. Cooper "Fraveine," the maid.

Albert, Edmund Burrill, Mrs. Geo. F. Collins, Mrs. Anna J. Cooper, Misses Zeta Dyson, Annie Howard, Jessie Fauset, Mabel Ruby, Georgia Simpson, now in Paris, S. Gray, Mary and M.A. F. Hilber, R.A. Pelham. The club meets weekly at the homes of members for conversation and in French. They have in preparation "The Voyage of Monsieur Perrichon," by the same author. Mrs. Cooper and Miss Dyson will leave in a few days to join Miss Simpson in Paris. They will study the French language and literature during the summer. Mrs. Cooper and Miss Simpson spent last summer in Paris. Santop Makes Record Home Run. At Elizabethport, N. J., Sunday afternoon, the Lincoln Giants defeated the T. A. R. S. team 5 to 4.
