XXVL No. 48 NATIONAL NEGRO ADJOURNS AMID O Fourteenth Annual Season delphia Ve SUCCESSFUL MEN TALK John Wannemaker Entertains Several Hundred Delegates at His Store and Gives Words of Encouragement. Oklahoma Dukesman Promise to be Royal Host in 1914—Adjournment Taken Friday Afternoon. (By Age Staff Correspondent) PHILAELPHIA, Pa., Aug. 26—Never before in the history of the race has there been gathered together in this country so large and no distinguished a body of colored people as last week in Philadelphia. It was the occasion of the fourteenth annual meeting of the National Negro Business League. A large audience of five thousand people gathered to listen to the annual address of the president and founder of the League, Dr. Booker T. Washington of Tuskegee, Ala., at the Academy of Music, Wednesday evening. Many of our people who came from the far South had never been inside a theatre building before. Few of them had ever seen so many colored people gathered together in one place before in their lives and the sight of this splendid audience and the words of Dr. Washington's address were inspiring to all of us. Among the people in that audience were people who have played an important part in the history of the Negro in the country. Among those whose names were most remembered, who was born on a slave on the plantation of Joseph Davis, the brother of the President of the Confederacy, Mr. Montgomery played a part in politics during the period of Reconstruction in Mississippi and was the only Negro member of the Constitutional Convention which passed the laws which put the Negroes out of politics in that State. He is the founder of the Negro town of Mound Bayou, Miss, where Negroes have recently erected a $100,000 oil mill. He is a man known and respected by white people and black throughout his State. Another important figure in that audience was George H. White, the last Negro to occupy a position in Congress. Mr. White has settled in Philadelphia and gone into the banking business and is one of the officers of the National Negro Bankers Association, which is one of the organizations affiliated with the Business League. Among the other prominent figures at this meeting was James C. Napier, who, until a few weeks ago, held the position of Register of the Treasury, a position which has been constantly held by colored men until it was recently turned over to a full blooded Indian from Oklahoma. Mr. Napier, the President of a Negro bank in Nashville, Tenn., chairman of the executive committee of the Business League and a prosperous business man. I mention these names because they illustrate the extent to which leaders of the Negro race, who formerly engaged in politics, are going into business in one form or another and making themselves leaders in the economic progress of the race. First Day's Session of League. The first session of the league was held last Wednesday in Music Fund Hill. The principal subject of discussion this year was the farm, and the opportunities that exist in the Southern States for Negroes to get possession land and make themselves independent on the soil in the South. A number of speakers were Negro farmers in such States as South Carolina, Alabama and Mississippi, men who, among with nothing in the way of animal and very little in the way of education have struggled upward until they now the owners of plantations of land and seven and sometimes as much as 100 acres of land. These men freely employ several hundred people their plantations. They raise crops the value of $25,000 and $30,000 a year; they are, in a small way, bankers store-keepers for the people they and are in fact doing business a scale that entitles them to be business men. The stories which they told at this time of their early struggles and way in which they met and over the difficulties in their way were interesting and inspiring and it is said that this meeting will mark theanning of a movement back to the which will induce a good many colored men who are now make preparous living in our Northern return to the country and take image of the existing opportunities that themselves upon the soil before too late. One of the most interesting stories I read at this meeting of the Business League was that of J. H. Bloedgett of Jacksonville. Ela. who started in nine- teen years ago as a lawyer in the street and since that time has become large land-owner and builder. He said that he had built during the last fifteen years no less than two hundred and eight houses in Jacksonville. He is still the owner of more than a hundred houses and other buildings in that city from which his residency him in more than $2,500 a month. Mr. Blodgett's success has been exceptional but there were many others who have achieved success on a smaller scale whose stories were equally interesting and inspiring. One of the men at this meeting was Watt Terry, of Brockton, Mass., who at the last meeting of the Business League Chicago, told how beginning in a small estate business he had increased his business he now pays taxes in the city of Brockton on property of the value of $500,000. The point, which all these men emphasized was that a colored man can succeed in this country, in spite of race prejudice, provided he is honest, thrifty and industrious. Entertained by·Wanamaker. Thursday afternoon the members of the league went in a body to visit the great store of John Wanamaker in this city. They were received by Mr. Wanamaker himself in the great music hall of his store. Here the delegates had an opportunity to listen to the music of the great pipe organ which is a part of the equipment of the store. They in turn sang, under the leadership of Maj. R. R. Moton of Hampton. In his address to the members of the league, Mr. Wanamaker referred to the fact on the spot where the Wanamaker building now stands William Lloyd Garriison had been stoned for speaking against Negro slavery: "This hall said Mr. Wanamaker, "has held many meetings but never one like this. I believe the story of this gathering down in history to offset the Garrison and Aroo." Among the other things that Mr. Wanamaker said at this meeting I recall this: "You make a mistake if you think that the white people of this country do not want you to succeed. It is not a matter of race or of face that makes for success but a matter of grace." He then went on to add that he thought the time had come when the business men of the country should be able to employ colored girls for clerks and stenographers, as soon as they were compelled to do the work. He added that to the business colleges refused to receive and train colored girls, I urged men for business the Negroes should build their own business colleges. For the colored people who had opportunity to attend this meeting in the great hall of Mr. Wanamaker's store, the Egyptian Hall, as it is called, the scene presented was one that will never be forgotten. The audience was especially touched by the words spoken by Mr. Wanamaker and Dr. Washington, and by the words spoken by Robert C. Ogden, the great friend of Negro education in the South, and the friend and partner, for many years, of Mr. Wanamaker. Tall of Cotton Mill and Insurance Company. Two events recorded at this meeting of the league may be said to mark the progress of the Negro in the higher corporate forms of business. These are the completion of the first cotton seed oil mill ever owned and controlled by colored people and the organization of the first standard, old line, insurance company for Negroes. For many years colored people have complained because they found it difficult or impossible to obtain insurance from the standard life insurance companies. During the past year there has been organized by colored people in the city of Atlanta, Ga., a company with $100,000 paid up capital to engage in insurance on the lines of the standard companies. One of the best papers read at the meeting was by Harry H. Pace, who told about the early struggles of the promoters of the insurance company. The cotton seed oil mill, the first of its kind to be erected and controlled by colored people, cost a little more than $100,000 to complete. It is said to be the best equipped oil mill in the State of Mississippi and is located in the little town of Mound Bayou, which has the distinction of never having had, during the quarter of a century of its existence a single white inhabitant. All the officers of the town from postmaster to mayor and council are colored people and it has the reputation of being one of the most orderly and well regulated towns in the whole Yazoo Delta. These two enterprises, the cotton seed oil mill and the Standard Life Insurance Company of Atlanta, Ga., are the two largest and most important enterprises in which Negroes have thus far engaged. Individual Negroes have succeeded in making considerable money in real estate at different times, but as Dr. Washington said in his opening address, the final test of the Negro is in his ability to unite his efforts and carry on large corporate enterprises. It is for this reason that these two enterprises are looked upon by all who are THE HOME OF THE MUSEUM OF THE ARTS AND CULTURE OF THE UNIVERSITY OF CAMBRIDGE KEYSTONE AID SOCIETY Philadelphia Has Industrial Insurance Company. Which Is Demonstrating That Race Can Conduct Insurance Concerns in the North With Success. Special to THE NEW YORK ACE. PHILADELPHIA, Pa., Aug. 26—Among the many business corporations owned and operated by colored men in Philadelphia, the Keystone Aid Society, an industrial insurance company, easily takes the lead. Its home office is an imminent four-story building, located the southeast corner of 10th and Lombard streets. It is worth $20,000 and has been paid for in full. It was the most beautifully decorated building in the city during the session of the National Negro Business League. Twelve years ago there were no insurance companies in Philadelphia and Pennsylvania owned and controlled by oil men. It was a common thing for them to be discriminated against in the matter of rates, always being charged more than whites of the same age in the same amount of insurance. Their liabilities were reverted to in order that they might be deprived of sick and death benefits. In October, 1902, a few oil industrial business men, together with some agents who had worked with white companies opened the offices of the Keystone Oil Society. They found the public skeptic at first, but through the services of some real live agents who know how to sell insurance together with conservative management of the officials of the company, soon won the confidence of the community. Unlike most new enterprises started by Negroes, the officers and directors of the company did not vote themselves large salaries to dissipate the first earning which should be kept as a reserve for the protection of its members, but on the contrary they served for five years for practically no salary at all. The company by reason of its wise management and strict business practices has grown by leaps and bounds until in eleven years it has written about 35,000 members, more than 12,000 of whom are in benefits. It has branch offices in Pittsburgh, Coatville and Harrisburg, Pa., as well as in Newark and Camden N. J. The company is incorporated in Pennsylvania and in New Jersey. The contract of this company is one of the most liberal and simple of any in existence and is based upon purely scientific interest in our progress with especial interest. The theme of Dr. Washington's address this year and the key note of this meeting of the League was the importance in the life of the Negro of the land and the opportunity to buy land. At only one point in his speech did Dr. Washington refer in any way to a subject which is greatly disturbing the colored people North and South, namely the attitude of the present administration in thrusting Negroes from all the offices that they have traditionally held and in subjecting them to humiliating restrictions. The business session of the National Negro Business League closed Friday afternoon mustist great enthusiasm, with Mat. R. R. Moton leading in the singing, Muskogee, Okla. was selected as the next meeting place. Friday evening a banquet was given by the local league at Horticultural Hall which was filled with visitors and citizens of Philadelphia. Saturday over one thousand persons took a delightful boat ride as the greatest of the local league. During the trip League Island was visited and the pleasure-seekers were permitted to land and visit the warships. The delegates and visitors left the City of Brotherly Love with nothing but complimentary expressions for the local business keane and the hospitable citizens of Philadelphia. THURSDAY.

It declares all applications for benefits on their merits, and never resorts to technicalities and tricky provisions of the law to avoid paying a meritorious claim. Within twelve hours after proof of death is filed in its office, all just claims for death benefits are paid. All claims for sick benefits are settled on the day the proof of disability is filed. In its existence this company has met with held a public meeting. It has not allowed the church to dispose of it. It has a good present it to the people at their doors. The company is under the supervision of the Insurance Department of Pennsylvania, and has adopted a system of accounting that is well nigh perfect. It has proven the statement that colored men cannot succeed in directing great corporations in the North to be untrue. While it is true that the competition is more fierce, men who have the real stamina and business knowledge can do so succeed. During convention wars the Keystone building was the crymine of all eyes and the mecca for the pilgrims from North, East, West and South who wished to learn of the system which had brought such success. Those who have brought this undertaking to pass are: John C Ashley president and manager; William H. Jackson vice-president and assistant manager; John H. Irwin, treasurer; John A. arranging secretary; John P. Turner, medical director; George H. White solicitor; Amos Taylor, in-person; Arther L. Trent, claim administrator Directors—The Rev N. H. Hester, chairman; John C. Ashley, James H. Irwin, E. J. Bullock, W. H. Jackson, Robert West, John A. Carrington, Thomas Jones, Executive committee; J. C Ashley, chairman; N H. Hester, W. H. Jackson, John A. Carrington, Robert West. ZION MEMBERS ORGANIZE New Organization To Be Known as the Emanuel Religious and Industrial Association—No Split in Mother Zion Church Expected. A number of the members of Mother Zion Church have banded themselves together in an organization to be called the Emanuel Religious and Industrial Association, the object of which will be to develop the industrial abilities of young Negro men and women, and at the same time surround them with religious care and guidance. It is stated by those responsible for the inception of this movement that it is in no sense to be considered as a split from the church. Following upon the disatisfaction aroused by Bishop Hood's退归 to return the Rev. R. M. Bolden as pastor to Mother Zion, it has been said a movement was on foot looking to the withdrawal of a number of members of the church who were displaced, to be followed by the organization of an independent congregation, which congregation would call the Rev. Mr. Bolden to serve as its spiritual guide and counsellor. It was stated to an Anc representative that most of the members of this organization are members of Mother Zion and will not withdraw their membership from their church. They hope eventually to make this new organization not only a religious and industrial association, but to incorporate also certain benevolent provisions which will accrue to the financial benefit of its members. If there had been any intention to withdraw from Mother Zion it is declared that Mr. Bolden would have positively refused to countenance it. He advised all the members in sympathy with him to remain in that church, it is said. The new organization holds meetings weekly on Tuesday evenings and will be composed of men and women who are seeking to benefit themselves and willing to help others. A permanent organization will be effected shortly. John Mitchell Reines Novel Point—Dr. T. A. Curtis Wants Fraternal Orders to Help Negroes White Well and Alive. Special to THE NEW YORK ACK. BALTIMORE, Mau. Aug. Z.—There is many a member of the Knights of Pythias in attendance at the sixteenth biennial session of the Supreme Lodge, which is being held in Baltimore this week. Drudg Hill avenue resembles the subway entrance at Times Square, New York, about 5:30 in the evening. Wherever you turn you are bound to run into a Pythian in uniform. The Illinois delegation headed by Maj.-Ger. R. R. Jackson is attracting more than thirty attendees. The 8th Regiment Band familiarizes members. The session was called to Tuesday at Bethel A. M. F. Church. Drudg Hill avenue and Lanyale street. When the session convened Tuesday morning a feeling existed that the meeting was not destined to be a tranquil one. In the first place there are more ambitious ones for office this year. Or if there are not more ambitious ones there are more who have the tenacity to openly announce their candidacy. Supreme Chiancellor Green is up for reelection. Joseph L. Jones is said to have an eye on the place. Then there is C. K. Robinson who has been Keeper of Records and Seals for many years. There is a rumor that he, too, will make an effort to get the coveted plum. John Mitchell, Jr., of Richmond, seems to be a thorn in the side of those in control. Mitchell has raised a novel point, and he is waging a strong light. He was suspended some months ago for refusing to pay a tax assessed by the Supreme Lodge. Mitchell contends the Supreme Lodge has the right to assess the Grand Lodge of a State, but has no authority to tax an individual member. Dr. T. A. Curtis, Supreme Lodge representative from Missouri, called upon the members of the Supreme Lodge to inaugurate a movement whereby more attention shall be given to members of the race while alive. He urged that the heads of the various colored fraternal organizations form an organization which shall have as its object the betterfit conditions for the Negro. Dr. Curtis, in his plea, said: "To look after the sick and hurt the dead is very commendable. But we owe something to those who are alive and well. If the officers of the colored Masons, Old Fellow, Pythians, Elks and other secret orders would organize a Federal body in malenable good would result. This would be done without the fundamental principles of any order being after all. If the officials of each order would assess its members only ten cents a month, one can readily see what a big fund would be on hand to touch the serious laws passed to discriminate against and humiliate the Negro current." Dr. Curtis's son is being well received, Supreme Grand Green delivered hisidential address Wednesday. Beside making a general review of the order he referred to the decision of the United States Court declaring that the order had right to have lodges in Tennessee Joseph L. Jones, head of the Courts of Calanthe, delivered his biennial address Tuesday morning. The other supreme officers made their reports. Memorial services were held for the late Dr. R. M. Bood, supreme medical register, and J. M. Hasselwood, of West Virginia. Tuesday evening. The operations were delivered by Boussa C. Simmons of Memphis and Dr. C. M. Wade of Hot Springs, Ark. The female delegates were tendered a reception at the home of Mrs. Rosa J. Richardson, head of the woman's department in Maryland. SOLDIER IN JAIL FOR CHICAGO, Ill., Aug. 26—Lieu, George Thompson, who fought in Cuba and the Philippines, is in jail in Chicago for marrying a white girl of Chicago in Michigan. When Thompson came back from Michigan proceedings were started to annul the marriage. After hearing the evidence the judge would not annul it. Thompson was then put on trial in the Federal Court in Chicago and converted to being a white slaver. He is now in jail and unless he is given him he will be sent to Fort Leavenworth for three years.

PRICE FIVE CENTS 'JIM CROW' ORDER TO BE MODIFIED Administration at Washington Concludes Segregation is Un-American SIGNS ARE ALL DOWN J. C. Napier and Bishop Walters Convince Secretary McAdoo That Race Resents "Jim Crowism." PRESIDENT ALSO VISITED High Officials of Government Now Realize That Negroes Do Not Refish Drawing of Color Line. Special to The New York Act WASHINGTON, D. C., Aug. 27.—From an authentic source it has been learned that the Administration has decided to modify the segregation order issued a few months ago by the heads of various departments, and that President Wilson, Secretary of the Treasury McAdoo and other prominent officials have concluded that the "Jim Crowing" of Governmental employees does not reflect credit on the United States. The powers that be first have evidence of assuming a change in front by ordering the signs "For Colored Only" and "For White Only," taken down. These signs had been put over the entrance of toilets. Secretary McAdoo issued the order on August 15. Two men are said to be chiefly responsible for the removal of the obnoxious signs—Bishop Alexander Walters and Register I. C. Napier. Both had long talks with Secretary McAdoo on the subject. Their arguments against the presence of "Jim Crow" signs in the Treasury Department evidently bore good fruit, as Secretary McAdoo ordered the signs taken down shortly after his talks with Messrs. Napier and Walters. There is every reason to believe that the colored and white clerks will be permitted to work wherever they desire before many weeks have passed. Napier Sees McAdoo. When seen by an Aot representative, J. C. Napier, who is still acting as Register of the Treasury, admitted that he had had a lengthy talk with Secretary McAdoo and that a few days later the signs had been taken down. "Mr. McAdoo was very courteous in his treatment to me" said Mr. Napier, "He gave instructions that we were not to be locked by anyone. We talked for nearly an hour. I told him of the indignities the race had suffered by the policy adopted by the Administration to segregate the colored clerks, and sought to impress upon him the fallacy of when he left the separate toilets. When he left the Mr. McAdoo印象 him more than all that I had. No one would given serious consideration. Then he asked me to call and seize before I left Washington. It was a few days later that I learned the signs had been taken down, and I was very much elated." Walters Makes Protest. Bishop Walters is elated over the victory, as the Administration has done much to embarrass him since March 4. In speaking of his fight against "Jim Crowism," Bishop Walters said, "Upon my return from the West I had a conference with a number of prominent Nexes of Washington, and it was decided that I should call on President Wilson and Secretary McAdoo and protest against the segregation of colored clerks in the employ of the Government and against the presence of "Jim Crow" signs. The impelling force that prompted me to call on President Wilson and Secretary McAdoo was my talk with the Washingtonians and the articles and cartoons appearing in THE AGE. "I first visited Secretary McAdoo, accompanied by my friends, and we were cordially received. I told Mr. McAdoo of the humiliation the Negroes of the country had been subjected to on the day he was discriminated attitude of the Government, and he assured us that he was not in favor of discouraging and embarrassing the colored citizens. When we left, Secretary McAdoo promised to take up the matter at once. "President Wilson was next visited, and he, too, assured us that he was not inclined to be disrespectful to the race and promised to confer with Secretary McAdoo and the heads of other departments. This was on August 14. The next day I was informed that the signs were down. The removal of the "Jim Crow" signs is a great victory for the Negroes of this country."

Pantaveurxia, Pa. Aug. 20.—Phile- delphia, the city’ of ancient lineage, nar- row streets and scrapple, won fresit laut rels last. weck—that “of being a most gracious and hospitable host. Outside of the Quaker City there were hundreds and hundreds: who were under the im- pression that Philadelphia knew but lit- tle about whole-souled hospitality ; but this crroncous idea has been changed.

From the time the address of wel come was delivered by Algernon B Jackson, president of the local league, to the steamboat excursion up and down the Delaware River, the local reside. were on the qui vive to see that ti visitors were royally entertained. On Friday evening Horticultural Hall, the principal place of its kind in the city, and noted {or its architectural beauty, was the scene of the most elaborate and _ One of the most enjoyable banquets ever given in the City of Brotherly Love by colored people. Beneath the effulgent rays cast by clusters of electric Bulbs, and to the strains of sweet melody, furnished by a Yocal colored orchestra, over: one thou- sand persans in evening dress enjoyed a repast’ which would have pleased the most exacting epicure. Six hundred Persons sat down and enjoyed the ap- ~petixing menus at the first table, and af- most that oumber were served at the second table, After giving marked at- tention to the gastronomic side of the program, dancing was indulged in until an early hour Saturday morning. ‘The visitors were given another treat by the local committee Thursday after- noon, when over three hundred were] put in automobiles and driven about the city. It was on this sight-seemg tour that Wanamaker's big store was visited, and the deldates were entertained by John Wanamaker. é / Business Side a Feature. But the social side of the session wag, not the only femure that was printed in- delibly on the minds of the visitors and Citizens of Philadelphia. What was said and done at the business meetings will not be soon forgotten. To one who! has been following the work of thg National Negro Business League since its inception, it was plainly evident at the Philadelphia meeting that this or- ganization is growing stronger and stronger in influence and is destined to bea st factor in helping to solve the so-called Negro problem ia the future. Two of. the most enjoyable speeches ef the session was made by Prof. Kelly Miller and Prof. H. T. Kealing. Eac' spoke at Thursday evening’s session. At the annual meetings of the Nation- al Negro Business League, much whole- ‘some food is furnished to inspire mem- bers of the race who possess very little race consciousness and who are in- clined to believe that the color of one’s skin severely handicaps them in their efforts to succeed in life. While many of the speakers are not orators, and in their enthusiasm may say things which are regarded as a bit exaggerated and extravagant, yet their unquestioned sin- eerity in telling in their own way about their achievements alwavs makes a most favorable impression and gives inspira- thon to the discouraged. : ‘Phe National Negro Business League fe rapidly becoming a “clearing house” for business and professional organiza- fhon of the race: Each year various or- i The National Negro Business League, ‘representing twelve State leagues. O00 lucal leagues and 3,000 Negro. business and_ professional men in all parts of the United States, take this occasion of our fourtcenth annual meeting to call the attention of the people of America and of the world to the substantial progress of the Negro race in these first lifty years of its freedom. I Starung fifty years ago with a population of 4,300,000, of whom 3,900,000 were slaves, we number to-day more than 10,000,000 free people—a nation, within a nation, separate in its peculiar racial inter- ests, but inextricably interwoven with all other races and peoples in “all that concern the progress and welfare of our common country. n Starting half a century ago, with- out experience, without education, and ‘without property, we to-day own and pay -taxes on 20,000,000 acres of land, an. area as large as the State of. South Carolina; we’ own and control 100 insurance companics, 300 “drug stores, 64 banks, 450 newspapers and more than 20,000 other businesses of vari- ous kinds—and the total wealth of imerican Negroes in land homes, ‘schools, churches and other forms of property amounts to more than $700,000.00, IV. In submitting this brief record of our material progress, we do not overlook the advance made in other directions. Fifty years ago, more than 90 per cent. of the race was wholly illiterate. To-day more than 70 per cent. can both read and write, v. We submit that no other race or people, starting so low, has, within so short a time, risen se high. As proof of this assertion, we call at- tention to the fact that at the end of tifty years of freedom. not more than 30 per cent. of the Russian Serfs weer able to read and write. and the amount of property owned by Russian peasants to-day, .meas- ured per capita, is not more than half that owned bv American Negroes. vi. In view of all these facts, we be- lieve we are justified in calling upon our: people to lift their heads and look forward and upwart, confident that the future has more and hetter things in store for us than the past, and that if we continue to justify the hopes of those who believe in us, we will steadily increase the number of our friends among all races in this country. Vit \ , Ia urging our people to struggle an tdd Mp wie do not overlook the special difficulties and discourage- ments which beset us, nor the wrongs and injustices we some- times suffer, but we have learned in fifty years something of the raed we have to travel and we trust in our ability to travel it in the future, as in the past, patiently. persistently and cheerfully, until we have gained for our race,the position to which our value and usefulness in the community entitles us.

Young, all the other commissioners were absent days. Col. Young steped into a continuing service in public office during the past thirty-two years. Col. Young was re-elected district grand master of Old Fellows of North Carolina. His commissioning held in Greenboro, N. C., last week." When the Wilson administration gets old enough, in 1910, it will be voted out of power there will be few if any colored people serving in the Federal civil service, at home or abroad, and there will be nothing left of the classified, competitive civil service, which it required such persistent and long drawn out effort of such great men as Col. Schurz. George William Curtis Horace White and others to secure in the place of the old Democratic system which came over from President Andrew Jackson's time, with the war cry, "To the victors belong the spoils of office." Gov. Pinchlock was a soldier and an officer in the Union army and has been conspicuous in Republican politics since Reconstruction Days, when he was a great power in Louisiana. Col. Young has been active in the Republican politics of North Carolina for quite forty years. The two are among the few of the "Old Guard" remaining. That the Democrats should allow them no quarter is a matter of fact granted, as they never allowed the Democrats any. We honor them now as they go out of the public service with the Republican party, with which they entered it, with clean records, and after having held many and high commissions in the army and the civil service with credit to themselves and honor to the Government. NEW MINISTER TO HAITI. It should not be a matter of surprise that President Wilson has appointed a white man to be Envoy Extraordinary and Minister Plenipotentiary to Haiti to succeed Dr. Henry W. Furniss of Indiana. The position is a large one in dignity and the salary is $10,000 a year. Because Haiti is classed as "the Black Republic," has not prevented white Southern Democrats from accepting the position when they had the opportunity of doing so. In President Cleveland's second term, Mr. Henry M. Smythe of Virginia was appointed and accepted the position, and it was said of him that he was neither a dignified nor creditable representative of our Government. The new appointee, Mr. Madison R. Smith, of Missouri, is a lawyer, sixty years old, and has been a member of Congress. He will, doubtless, make a creditable representative of our Government and go to Haiti resigned to accept and tolerate with a smiling countenance Nothing better on the same subject could be by a man more competent to say it than Dr. Washington, nor could occasion more fitting have been selected, nor an audience gathered more competent to carry the message to the people most interested in it in all parts of the country. Speaking to them in his great store, where they were his guest, Mr. John Wanamaker, the merchant prince we all love and respect, said, on another phase of our industrial uplift: "The American people are becoming proud of their Negro brothers and sisters who have been greatly appreciated. When they can stand up together as you are doing today, no praise can be too great for them." "One of the things that ought to be considered by you business men is the subject of education. In this respect, Doctor Washington is the Moses who is leading your race out of hodge, the business colleges do not care to enroll your students there are enough of you your students." "I am one of those who would like to see Negro women in the offices of the various business houses in our cities. They should be equipped to take their places in the stores as stenographers, cashiers and clerks." The league meeting was the most successful in its history. It was apparent on every hand that our business men have got far beyond their starting point in Boston thirtree years ago, and have captured "the stride that wins." have made their own business foundation and are building upon it steadily. "Back to the farms and into the stores" is the commercial sign by which we are winning our way. BISHOP WALTERS AND HIS POLITICS We have no disposition to torture Bishop Alexander Walters of New York and the United States, and the other Negro Democrats who helped to elect Mr. Woodrow Wilson President, but we are bound "to catch the manners living by them" and to render unto him the things that are his, because he is a Big Churchman as well as a Big Politician. The two things are hard to make work in harness together, but good men have cried to do it in all ages. So many worse things have happened to the colored people as an outcome of the Democratic victory in November last, that we did not expect, while all those we did expect and cried aloud against, have come and are coming to pass, that we are moved to point the evidence as it is produced as guides for the present and the future. Most people learn very few new things in politics or religion and forget few. They accept the old things and endeavor to make the most of them, and fail more often than they succeed. The efforts to make the high work of the churchman and the low work of the politician the same work is one of the old things that cannot be made new but which like oil and water refuse to mix and blend. It is hard on the man who goes wrong, because there is only a small stock of Charity in the world, to be held responsible for his mistakes, but he is invariably so held. The Hopkinsville Saturday News "Little but Loud" says the following: "The colored press of this country has been more than kind and forbearing with Bishop Alexander Walters in the manner that he has messed up the party. Bishop Walters is the senior Bishop in the A. M. E. Zion Church, which position pays him $2,500 a year and excludes him from the party. He has abandoned his church work and devoted his entire time to the enterprises of the Democratic Party. He did not abandon his episcopal salary, however. He dragged the dignity of his high and sacred calling into the dust by engaging in the petty practices of the politicians, the businessmen, the lawyers and the speculators and using the prestige of his position in persuading the colored people to depart the way of the fathers and the party of their liberty and follow him into the Democratic Party. He established a junta in New York and one in Chicago and fouled his hands by disbursing the money he received from his electors to elect him." "Like a patriot he patted the promises of Woodrow Wilson given the Negro official recognition in the matter of offices, and the support of his rights. Coming in transmission through one of the leading colored churchmen of the country, many of the less thoughtful of our race, and especially those who were communicants of the Bishop's church, believed that they were now at Wilson is elected, the status of the Negro's political rights is in a condition more critical than at any time since slavery. The men that Bishop Walters helped to elect are striving with all their might to disfranchise the entire Negro race in America with Bishop Walters. They are not only the Republicans who appointed them and put white men in their stead. They have not kept a single pre-election promise to the Negro. Bishop Walters ought to feel pretty bad." Bishop J. W. Hood is the senior Bishop of Zion. The point THE AGE would emphasize is not that Mister Walters joined the Democratic party and thus helped to produce the condition in the Federal public service that has kept the colored people in confusion since March 4, last, with the expectation of something worse to come ever present, but that Bishop Walters did it and encouraged by his example other Bishops and many clergymen to do it. Mr. Walters has as much right to do so as Mr. Smith, but could Bishop Walters afford to do it, when the best traditions of the church in this country and public opinion generally are opposed to it? The question is not out of order because he has done it; it is highly in order because the conduct of our Bishops and clergymen in the future should be controlled by the answer to it. For a great many years our Bishops and clergymen controlled the colored voters in New York and Kings county in the interest of the Republican machine, but the influence was bad for all concerned, and it was a fortunate day when they retired from political leadership. The ways of politics and politicians are not clean ways; the ways of the church and of churchmen must be clean ways, or the good influence they should exercise on public morality and conduct are impaired or destroyed, and that is a great calamity in every situation where it occurs. The public expects more and better work of churchmen than it does of politicians. We do not say that this should be so; we do say that it is so. As long as it remains so churchmen will have to respect it, or lose the public confidence and support, without which their work as churchmen becomes of the withered fig tree sort, and as tasteless as Apples of Sodom. Should our Bishops and clergymen tangle themselves up in partisan politics, as Bishop Walters and others have done in the past? That is the question. many things he would not tolerate in order removing all of the signs in his Missouri department separating the employees on There were many Negro Democrats who aspired to the Haitian post, some of them as able lawyers and as old in years as the Missouri lawyer who received the appointment, but black and colored Democrats are no more fashionable at the White House and the State Department than black and colored Republicans. Indeed, that they should be disappointed at anything the Democratic Administration may do after all that it has done since March 4, would not be reasonable to expect of them. The best friends and partisans get tired after a while of "the glad hand and frozen heart." They have a right to feel, however, the boss that the race sustains in being cut out of presidential appointments in the foreign and domestic service, even as we do, for it is a good and a fair thing that all the race elements of the citizenship should have honorable representation in the public service, whatever party controls the Government for the time being. JOHN SKELETON WILLIAMS. During the meeting of the National Negro Press Association in Philadelphia last week there was a persistent rumor among the newspaper men, who said they had got it out of the air as they passed through Washington, that the Hon. William McAdoo, the secretary of the Treasury, had issued an order removing all of the sign in his department separating the employees on the color line, and that this had been done. This should mark the passing of the obvious condition in the other departments created by the separation signs. This is a distinct victory for Mr. J. C. Napier, Bhsop Walters and the Negro press of the country, which has had very little assistance from the white press in denouncing the outrageous separation and demanding that it be removed. It was also said that Secretary McAdon, who is a New York man, although born in the South, is so wrathful with Mr. John Skeleton Williams of Virginia, the Assistant Secretary of the Treasury responsible for the separation order issued during the absence of the Secretary, that he would soon be transferred to another position in the public service where his opportunities to make trouble for the Administration would be reduced to reasonable proportions. We hope this is also, also. It is said of Mr. John Skeleton Williams that he is as hungerty and arrogant as a Confederate brigadier who never smelt gumpowder and as insolent and overhearing as a Confederate private of "the poor white trash" sort who ever fighting "the Yanks" and cursing the Negroes. We hope that Secretary McAdoo has used the head of the separation order outrage and that Assistant Secretary John Skeleton Williams will be reduced from his high position and given one nearer his size. Sandhill College Johnson Asian Academy to issue Executive Order abolishing segregation system—Says Southern Influence Has increased at Capital City Under New Regime. The New York Times Aug. 26—President Wilson has been called upon by the Springfield (Daily) Republican to issue an executive order abolishing the segregation system that has been put in force during the present administration. Under the caption "The Color Line in Washington," the Republican comments as follows; "The protests arising from various associations representative of the Negro citizenship of the country against the new race discrimination developing in the National capital under the Democratic administration are none too vigorous or numerous. The southern influence has inevitably increased at Washington under the new political regime and senators of the Vardaman type are aggressive in their efforts to make the capital of the nation conform to the capital of Mississippi or Georgia in matters pertaining to relations between the races. "The segregation of Negro clerks and other Negro employees in the government departments is, defended as a kindness to those most affected * * * "However that may be, there is strong protest against the segregation from those who represent the Negro race, and it is impossible to assume that the colored clerks do not feel the sting of a new inferiority, civic in its meaning, which the government rule has proclaimed and established. There is more than a suggestion there the plea of the Negro clerks that cannot be reconciled with the principles of a Democratic government and which no Federal administration has hitherto tolerated in the executive departments. "The Wilson Administration was sure to confront issues of this character. For years, under Republican administrations, there was a steady weakening of the safeguards for the protection of Negro rights. It is a significant commentary upon Republican concern for the colored race at this time that no Republican congressman has introduced a resolution of inquiry or of censure relating to the Negro segregation in the departments. Had this thing happened during one of the Cleveland administrations, the Republican attacks would have been fast and furious. But the President cannot afford forgers its obligation to protect the class of citizens, simply because there is less partisan insistence than formerly upon the maintenance of the political and civic equality of the races. It is his duty to resist anti-Negro aggression in federal affairs. An executive order abolishing the segregation system that has so suddenly spring up would do the President great credit and treasure the colored race." Philadelphia, Pa., Aug. 26. Following are the newly elected officers of the National Negro Undertaker's Association: G. W. Franklin, Tennessee; president; J. S. Franklin, Tennessee; jockey; Basil F. Hutchins, Massachusetts; second vice-president; Henry Irvin, Pennsylvania; third vice-president; James N. Shelton, Indiana; secretary; Mrs. Hattie King, Chicago; assistant secretary, and J. C. Thomas, New York, is chairman of the executive board. MARCH OF TENTH CAVALRY. (Fortune, New York Sun.) The march of the Tenth Cavalry, a Neuro regiment, from Fort Ethan Allen, Vermont, to the camp of instruction near Winster, Va., has not attracted much attention, but it was a fine performance. The distance traversed was 70.59 km on two states and over several mountain ranges. The start was trade on June 16, and Winster was reached on July 19. Four days the regiment rested, and the average day's ride was 22.53 miles. The weather was generally hot, the maximum temperature being 40°. One horse died of colic; three, overcome by heat, were shot; and eight were left in pasture for their own good. The ages of the horses ranged from five years to twenty-three—it appears the veteran survived. One hundred men marched the march, and all trotted into the instruction camp in good condition. No hospital returns have been published, but the troopers doubtless did better than the horses. Necessity has made the march, making light of the hardship and discomfort. The Tenth is a crack regiment, as every one of its white officers must have been for a long time in a salubrious country. Perhaps there are white regiments in the army that could have ridden from Vermont to Virginia in quicker time. The soldiers have finished the march in better temper and under better discipline.

J., is the summer air camp on the National League on Urban Conditions where boys from to 10 years of age of Manhattan and Brooklyn are given outings through the summer. The camp is in charge of W. L. Imes and Robert Kidleout, both experienced and capable men, and all present is occupied by a detachment of thirty-three boys from the Boy Scout division of the Carlton avenue branch of the N. M. C. A., Brooklyn, M. & K. McNeese, secretary, and the Bapal mission, Hudson avenue, Mr. Franklin in charge. Leaving the car about two miles out from the cloair a tramp of about a mile is necessary to reach the camp. The car leads through a stretch of woods, past the Verona Station on the Erie Railroad, and then takes its way right up the side of a hill, going almost straight up, until the top is reached. Here a metal plate has been utilized for the camp ground, and eight large tents go white in the sun's rays filtering through the thickly leaved limbs of the trees surrounding the camp. The land on which the camp is located is controlled by the real estate firm of N.A. Parker, and that firm has donated its use to the league for camp purposes. This is the second year the camp has been located on this site. One tent is used as a mess tent, and here Mr. Ridenour is the presiding genius. Adjomining is the dining room tent, with two long tables, at which the boys assemble three times a day. The meal call is always promptly responded to.

Telenews Marion 1721 LOADSTONES Boston, March — "Lucky" "Mrs Lucy Spaulding, a Chicago society leader, almost missed today the stewardship that was to take, her to Europe. Considering the nerve racking experience she had in her home just before she came to sail for the other side, she was in excellent health and, spirit. Her beautiful jewels, including her diamond ear rings and handsome pearl necklace were seized by the man, as he tried to choke her to death when she awoke and discovered him in her room. She attributes the saving of her gems and her life to two landstones which she almost invariably bears her chamomile bag suspended in her coat, as she believed that the fame of her jewelry, envied by all of the women in her social set, became known in the "underworld," and a desperate raid was made upon her home by a gang of "viginers" as villainous as the band of pirates that ever sailed the sea. The "Lucky" Mrs. Spalding was also appeared at a New Year's costume ball. When seen in the elegant dining room of Hotel Vendome, she said: "I just arrived, from my home in Chicago, from a far-off farbite but very enlightening experience. I had up my mind to come here and surprise a childhood friend on my way to sell for Europe. Well, I am not the kind of a woman to let a burglar phantom phants, so I came just as if nothing had happened. I had arrived here in the hotel and enquired for my friend. I found she had left yesterday to visit her aunt in Atlanta. So I just stopped for a bite to eat going to take a cab to the staminaable hotel. Asked if she would not tell how her landstone had saved her life and her jewelry, she replied: "I fear there is not enough time, but a moment as you have heard enough of the itching and something about it. I may as well tell you will get it straight. In the first place, if I had not foolishly taken my landstone off the night of the burglary, because I was going to wear it, I would have been troubled by the thieves. I have had such wonderful luck, in almost Any one wishing to learn more book called "The Loadstone Mother of York Aor readers who write at once.

In fact I have worn leadstones so long now that I feel that they are a part of me, almost as much a part of me as my hair or teeth. The beautiful woman smiled as she shushed and showed teeth that seemed to rival the gems in her handsome pearl necklace. "Previous to Lent," she continued, "my round of social duties was so exacting that I welcomed a session in which I seemed so scared while whirlwinded, I was a really effective rest, I determined to take a run over to Europe. Because I wanted to surprise a childhood chum who was stopping here in the endnote. I concluded would love to train him, but I was to take the train for the "Hub." I accepted an invitation to dine with several chums of my college days. We had a most delightful time, and I returned home quite early because I was in bed before midnight. I do know how long I slept. Suddenly I awoke with a start and realized someone was prowling around the room. I switched on the electric light at the head of my bed just as a man, and I was walking around the room had made, jumped from my dressing table and soiled me by the throat. "He was a horrible looking man, and had my diamond car rings and pearl necklace in his other hand which he closed at once. I tried to hold it in my hand, but it was so strong that I could scurry breathe. I was not able even to whisper. Strugzling to free myself from his grasp. I rolled partly from the bed, my right hand striking the door. I felt something between my hands, and I was anguish. I was able to realize that it was the top of the little bag in which I keep my two precious loadstones. I clutched at the bag convulsively only to be pulled away from it in the struggle. Of course the burglar did not want me lying to do, but thought I was simply taking an effort to get away from him. "Finally I managed to get my hand over that part of the bag in which the stones roasted. As I did so I felt the man shudder. He let go of me and he effort to climb out, he dropped diamond ear rings and necklace inside the room and disappeared. I rushed to the window to call for help, and saw the gems glittering on the floor in the rays of the electric light. Looking out, I saw him and other people on the avenue. He left a buttered derby hat at the foot of my bed and an ugly looking chisel on the window sill. "Then I just hung the loadstones around my neck and shall never take them with kaolin. Value them more than all man-made jewelry, I mainly consider them jewels. Loadstones have safeguarded me almost since I first became interested in them as a result of a lecture I heard, when in college, by Dr. Aaron Finley Bone, a professor of chemistry and scientist.

Henson, Agent best results, to have two loadstones a positive and a negative; and that they would draw all the good toward the lucky owner and resist evil. At that time I was a poor girl, trying to work my way through college. I was a student, and that was being helped by my dear old Southern 'mummy' who loved me as if I were her own daughter. "Well, after hearing that lecture, I made up my mind to have a pair of loadstones; but how to get them was quite a question with me then. Finally, after much skimming, I managed to get the loadstones. It was marvelous how soon good fortune came my way. In a very short time I received enough from an unsettled estate of a distant relative, long dead, to more than pay the remainder of my college expenses. Not long after I was graduated with honors. Soon after I received my husband's property, as a result of my guidance, is rather well known. "Of course my husband was wealthy when I married him, but, thanks to my loadstones, he has doubled his fortune several times. Of course I do not say this to braug, but just to thank him for the loadstones will do. I have had only one piece of bad luck since I began to wear loadstones, and that was awful. But it was all due to my own fault and carelessness. I lost my precious loadstones when in bathing at Narrkunsett on the last Summer. Before into the war I was the cord, by which was suspended the little bag in which the loadstones were kept, was so worn that there was danger that I would lose it from my neck. But I thought I would be careful and have a new cord on the morrow. I am a good swimmer, and I have a loadstones. I swam out to a float and back, and then discovered the cord had broken and I had lost my loadstones. "I was almost frantic with grief and fear. I did not know what to do after making a painstaking but unsuccessful search. A friend who knew the table told me to enquire the Magnetic Ornament Company for a new pair, and I did so at once. I had not had the new pair long before I was sure they were much more powerful for producing good, and warding off evil than the ones I had set such store by. As a proof of their power, I was being strangled by the burgher. I am sure if I had worn them to bed that night the men would never have been able to enter the house. Something would have happened to scare them away no matter how much they had planned to take my jewels." "What difference in 'loadstones'?" the "Lucky" Mrs Spaulding was asked. "There is a vast difference," she replied. "Some people think loadstones ought to be heavily magnitized; but scientists say that theory is not a good way to have a highly magnitized, they take away all the iron from the blood, thus taking the magnetism from the system and destroying the red corpuscles of the blood. That leaves one in the same condition as if they had been overcome by illumination, so we know it is our personal magnetism, so much talked about, that enables LUCK IS IN YOUR HAND.

Suddenly Mrs. Spaulding looked at his standard studded watch and exclaimed: "Now see what you've done, or rather made me do! It is within five minutes of the time the ship is to sail, and I have not here talking instruc-tion getting to the vessel. What shall I do to it then?" "Why not try your loadstones and make the ship wait for you? she was asked. "That's a good iden," she replied. "And it is also a good idea to call a cab and see if I am successful in going to Europe on this steamer. If I am successful that something awful would have happened to me if I had got on board." A cab was called and the reporter accompanied the woman to the dock. There it was found that a sufficient delay had been caused in coaling so much lucky. Mrs. Luc Spaulding had plenty of time to go on board in a leisurely manner. "I knew my loadstones would do the trick," she said when she was congratulated on being in time for the trip abroad on that particular ocean liner. Dr. Aaron Finley Bonds, African Traveller, Neander and Scientist. "Asked by the reporter if he might take the lucky stones for a very few minutes in order that he might get a raise of salary, the fortunate possessor of the powerful loadstones showed unmistakable signs of alarm. "Don't you know that it spills a loadstone to let any one else touch it; that the owner only may come in contact with it? I wouldn't mind a friend touch any more intimate friend to loadstone. The loadstone's peculiar power is for the individual. The way to get and keep that peculiar power is to obtain a pair of loadstones and let no other person touch them. Because they have done so much for me, I am always glad to tell others about the loadstone that they should touch them. If they wish to have the same success, prosperity, health and good fortune, then they should get a pair of loadstones for themselves. When one considers what a pair of loadstone will do for their possessor, anybody can afford to get a pair. In order to obtain a pair, you not to obtain such wonder workers." Then came the order for those who were not going to sail to go ashore and the lucky woman who had had an ocean liner wait for her while she told about her loadstone took a picture of the vessel from which she waved her handkerchief in the stately cradle headed for the sea. AT MANHATTAN CASINO Messrs. Brooks and Bowen would have a 'big time' act if they inaugurated a number of important changes. As their skit now stands they make a heroic attempt to be comedians, when, as a matter of fact, they are strong at piano playing, singing and dancing. Were they to appear in neat attire, without cork, play the piano sing and dance in their refreshing way, their act would be highly entertaining from start to finish. However, for some reason' they try to be funny and waste a lot of valuable time. Shelton Brooks does some clever work at the piano and has a good singing voice. Clarence Bowen is still a sweet tenor singer, but does not sing enough. He has not lost any of his skill as a dancer. "Some of Thest Days" would be a better number for the orchestra to use when Brooks and Bowen make their first entrance. "The Monkey Rag" has been used repeatedly by Chris Smith in these parts. A VARIED PROGRAM. (By LUCIEN H. WHITE) IN a program ranging from the heaviest classic to the lightest and latest tango craze the band of the Eighth Regiment, Illinois National Guard, Chicago, Ill., made its debut before a New York audience Monday evening, August 25, at Manhattan Casino, 155th street and Eighth avenue. The band was presented to the people of New York by Maj. R. R. Jackson of the Eighth Regiment, Illinois National Guard, who is also the major general commanding the Uniform Rank, Knights of Pythia, of N. A, S. A, E, A, A and A. Accompanying the band was a drill team composed of about forty Pythiahs of the Uniform Rank, Knights of Pythiahs. Glad in spotless white duck, arranged in a semicircle in the center of the spacious dancing floor of the casino, the fifty-four musicians of the band presented an imposing appearance. When the director's baton was raised and the strains of the opening bars of the first number swelled forth, the balcony boxes were well filled, while the boxes on the main floor were crowded. The waiters were kept busy placing chairs around the side and back rails, and before the program was concluded it was difficult to find even standing room. The audience was different, from the ordinary music lover, who composed largely of music lovers, and critics capable of appreciating and understanding the beauty and meaning of the high-class program rendered by this organization of trained musicians. Sergt. W. E. Berry of the Illinois National Guard is the principal musician and director of the band. His work with the baton is distinctly refreshing because of the entire absence of affective mannerisms and gesticulatory performances. His work is quietly authoritative. At first one might thing the director lacking in forcefulness and strength, so quietly and calmly does he proceed with his work, but as the program is developed it is seen that only strength and force combined with complete certitude of knowledge and familiarity with his score enables the director to dominate and away his massive instrument so quietly and effectively. The work of Sergt. Berry is characterized by sympathetic certainty and his musicians are thoroughly en rapport with him. The Eighth Regiment band was practically unknown in New York. Its musical field has hitherto been entirely in the Middle West, and consequently there were no preconceived opinions, favorable or prejudicial, as to the quality of its musical efforts. Reaching the city Monday by way of the Twenty-third street ferry, the band marched through a number of streets enroute to Harlem, playing marching tunes as they paraded. The manner in which the band handled that class of music aroused the anticipations of those hearing it. Those anticipations were amply justified by the rendition of the concert program Monday night. In only one or two instances was there room (or criticism, and, strange to say, it was in the rendition of the light popular numbers that these weaknesses were shown. A lack of unanimity of response and a careless alurring of tone were evident once or twice, but Director Berry quickly pulled the offending sections into line and prevented the lapses from becoming noticeable. The work of the reed section in the Oberon overture was delightful. The preciseness of attack and accurate phrasing in the first section of the overture made the extremely difficult passage seem childishly easy. The climax of the evening, however, was reached by the band when it essayed the "Lucia di Lammermoor" selection. Donizetti's opera, with its wealth of harmony and pleasing contrapuntal passages, is peculiarly suited to an arrangement for brass and reed instruments. At no time did Sergt. Berry show more musically understanding than in his interpretation of this charming and popular composition. The ensemble work was excellent, and was marked by a purity of tone and shading unexcelled throughout the evening. The familiar sextet was anticipated by the audience, many of whom sighed with satisfaction when the altos took up the well known strains. Nice work was done by the soloists who took the trombone, baritone and cornet passages in the contest fantasia, "The Champion" the trombone especially producing beautiful tone quality. In his clarinet solo, "Detecta", B. S. Gaten had an opportunity to show good technique and interpretation, but he was evidently handicapped by a faulty reed. His tone in alt had a tendency to lose its fulness and this was especially noticeable when the intervals were an octave or more. Sergt. Berry's handling of the band in accompanying this solo was perhaps his least effective work of the evening. In the final passages he allowed the band's fortissimo to slightly overwhelm the soloist's tones, and this marred materially enjoyment of the closing strains. The large audience, however, appreciated Mr. Gaten's rendition and gave an enthusiastic and hearty encore. In fact, every number given by the hand was received with approval, and only Director Berry's modesty prevented a more frequent response to encores. At the conclusion of the concert program the band chairs were removed and the Pythian drill team was marched out by Maj. Jackson. To the music of the band, and without other orders, the team went through a difficult and intricate sword drill. The well drilled team received an ovation. After the drill the band took its place upon the stage at the end of the Casino and dispensed delectable dance music. The band left at 5 A.M. Tuesday morning for Baltimore to take part in the maneuvers at the Supreme Lodge Knights of Pythias, in session this week in that city.

LAFAYETTE THEATRE Shelton Brooks, a song writer hailing from Chicago, and Clarence Bowen, formerly of the Georgia Campers, have formed an alliance and are disporting in vaudeville as a team. This week they are headhining the bill at the Lafayette Theatre, and there is much genuine merit in their offering. Vision D'Art is a highclass act which should get over anywhere. The series of tableaux presented strongly appeal to the eye. Fuller Rose and Company in the sketch "Shock Dock" failed to score. The sketch of the company was very amateur. The published company presenting the series "Italia" must be breaking in. Romanine, billed as the "Crazy Violinist" won apause. Joe Lovey, formerly cashier of the Lafayette Theatre, has been appointed house manager. He has been succeeded by Mike Marie Pavia. CRESCENT THEATRE The best act on the bill at the Crescent Theatre the first half of the week was La Vell's Twelve Dogs. The members of the canine family did several praiseworthy stunts which pleased. The Andersons have an act that could be greatly strengthened. The male member of the team plays the piano and sings too loudly. He believes more in noise than expression. The comedienne is not funny under cork and would go better doing straight work. The Black Houndi extricated himself after the brachiosaurid and beet put on him and the keys turned. And Blanche Sterling rendered several suggestive songs THE FROGS AT BALTIMORE 16 the Dramatic Editor of the Act: I wish to commend, through you, The Frogs for their very frank statement in this week's Act, anent the advertisement of the Frogs' affair at the Lyric, in our city, last week. It was a source of profound regret to me that the auditorium of the theatre was not filled to overflowing, but I felt our people were justified in the stand they took in view of our recent fights against segregation. You had a wonderful audience for all that, but next year your boxes will be auctioned at unheard of prices for Baltimore, and every inch of standing room will be taken. (Signed) E. B. TAYLOR, Baltimore, Md. August 22, 1913. CIRCUS MAN A HERO. How a colored man connected with Barnum & Bailey's Circus protected a white woman traveling with the show from the viciousness of a white ruffian, and who subsequently met death for defending the woman, is being told by white papers in various sections of the country. The Billboard gives the following account of the incident: When Barnum and Bailey's Circus was exhibiting at Sloux Falls this week, a white man was discovered peeking through a hole in the canvas of the ladies' dressing room. An employee of the circus who made the ladies' dressing room under by the collar and hartened him to a region beyond the circus lot, and administered reasonable advice between kicks. The employee went by the name of "Mule," the only name he had so far as his associates and employers were concerned. He had been picked up a few weeks before, but his skin was red, but Mr. Mule had a high sense of right and wrong, of purity, virtue and good citizenship. He had proven to be a valuable man in guarding the tent, which is the only home known to the women who travel with the show. He took it upon him to protect the women in the neck bunch who try to invade the macrerecincts of the circus women's home. "Mule" drove the Sloux Falls intruder from the lot. Late that night when the last loads were being hurried to the railroad, "Mule" dead body was found behind the wall and been work pulling the pins which held the big top. While there were no eye witnesses to the tragedy, suspicion points to the big white ruffian who had peeked through the canvas. When "Mule"'s body was laid to rest the grave was met with imitation by the women of the circus, who had been protected from the insults of white scoundrels by this big black Nerro. What a pity that his real name cannot be learned and a testimonial sent to his family and friends telling them that "Mule" protected virtue, and that he was every inch a man—a superior being to the white trash that had caused his death. IN THE WORLD OF SPORT Williams Allews Three Hits. "Cyclone" Williams was in form in Sunday's game between the Lincoln Giants and Philadelphia Professionals. The score was 6 to 0 in favor of the Lincoln Giants. Williams struck out sixteen men. The score: Cubs Afraid to Bat Against Wickware When the Chicago team of the National League and the Rutland team started to play an exhibition game at Schemcady, N. Y., Sunday afternoon, the Chicago players noticed that Wickware, the crack pitcher of the Mohawks, was on the field in uniform. The Cubs have seen Wickware pitch in Chicago and know that he is effective in the box. Therefore when the Rutland players made know that Wickware was going to pitch for them. Evers' men set up a howl and refused to play. They declared if Wickware pitched there would be no game; Wickware had to hear it. The daily papers attribute the refusal of the Cubs to play Rutland with Wickware in the box to color prejudice, but the truth of the matter is that Chicago did not want to take a chance of having it advertised that Murphy's team was defeated by a Negro. The Cubs showed a big yellow streak. That's where the color line came in. Providence Red Sox B: Imperiali, 2. Before a crowd of over seven hundred spectators Sunday afternoon an aggregation of ball players calling themselves the Providence Red Sox composed mostly of college men, among them being Andrews of Brown University, Donalue of Seton Hall, Landitii the interscholastic twirler of English High of Providence; Mattern and McShery of the fast Revere nine of the Amateur League, defeated the Imperials in a seven-inning game. It was a pitchers' battle for five innings, but in the sixth two errors by the hotel lads lost them the game. Andrews and Mattern furnished the fielding features' for the visitors, while Craig, James and T. Gauges starred with the willow for the Imperials. B. M. O. A.

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 Slowery," 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 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 extravagant or worth while looking at. My only excuse is that I in fact, not looking for the best but for the worst. I am hunting for the man farthest down." The inspiration of the book is that, having found the man farthest down, he has an abundance of hope for him.
