SEEK TO EVADE NEW LEVY LAW
Some Proprietors Plan to Ignore Civil Rights Act by Trickery
:ent Saloons and at a Number of Soda Fountains Colored Patrons Are Excessively Charged.
Colored Couple Walk at Jack's Restaurant Two Hours—Management Goes Through Form of Discharging Three Waiters.
It has already developed that the proprietors and managers of some of the places of public accommodation in New York intend to resort to subterfuge in order to keep from complying with the new Civil Rights Law which went into effect September 1, providing that no person should be denied accommodation in New York State because of creed or color.
While several restaurants, saloons and other public places have ceased to draw the color line, there are some where discriminations are going on just the same—only the violators of the Levy Law seek to evade the new Civil Rights Act by trickery.
In some saloons and at a number of soda water fountains an effort is made to discourage the prospective colored customers by raising the prices.
Bet for Two Hours in Restaurant.
At Jack's restaurant, which is one of the principal eating places in New York, the management went through the form of discharging three waiters because they refused to wait on a colored man and his lady friend a few evenings ago. One of the daily papers, in reporting the incident, gave the following account:
Trying to take advantage of the new Civil Rights law, which went into effect September 1, a well dressed Negro couple tried for two hours early yesterday to be served with food in Jack's Restaurant, Forty-third street and Sixth avenue. Three waiters were discharged when they refused to wait upon them.
Jack's has an all-night license. About 1 A.M. the Negro, who was very dark, accompanied by a woman of lighter complexion, entered the place and took a table in the North room. No other patrons were entered at the table, workers were not at the patrons' attention to the pair. Although the three became almost overcrowded later, they sat down beside the Negroes. The Negro backoned to waiters several times, but they ignored his requests to be served until he became so impatient an hour after his entrance he pounded on the table for several minutes. Finally one of the waiters, seemingly annoyed by the man's pounding, came over and asked, "What do you want?"
"I want you to wait on us," answered the Negro, taking up a bill of fare. "No use reading that menu," said the waiter, "won't serve you." And he walked away.
Half an hour later the Negro's continued poundings attested a second waiter, He, too, refused to serve him, saying, "I won't wait on a Negro, so quit pounding."
Summoning the head waiter the Negro explained he had been there an hour and a half and two waiters had refused to take his order. The head waiter immediately called the first employee and discharged him when he persisted in his refusal to serve the man. When the second waiter was given similar orders by the head waiter and refused he, too, was discharged. A third waiter was asked to wait on the pair, but the result was the same. All three loudly denounced the couple and urged others not to remain in the place while they were present. The pair sat at the table until 3 o'clock. Finally, convinced they would not be watted on, they left the restaurant. The man said he was a physician from Washington.
Investigation by an Acz representative disclosed the fact that the three waiters reported by the daily papers as having been discharged were at work the next day.
SUES THEATRE MANAGER.
Andrew Sims, Jr., 152 Wright street, Newark, has brought suit for $500 damages in the First District Court against Isaac Boyland, alleging that he was refused admission to a motion picture theatre owned by the defendant on account of his color.
Boyland conducts the Astoria Theatre (2) Freelinghysen avenue. On the night of August 21 last Sims, accompanied by his wife, went to the ticket office of the Astoria and was refused admission. Fred G. Stickel, Jr., counsel for Sims, has served a summons on Boyland. Stickel said that he would bring suit under the act of 1884, which provides for the protection of all citizens in their civil and legal rights.
OF KNIGHTS OF PYTHIAS
S. W. Green, supreme chancellor of the Knights of Pythias, accompanied by Mrs. Green, was a visitor in New York this week. Before leaving for New Orleans Mr. and Mrs. Green will visit Boston, Buffalo, Niagara Falls, Montreal, Toronto, Detroit and Chicago. The head of the Knights of Pythias spoke enthusiastically of the Baltimore session and of the outlook for the order.
"The order is growing stronger numerically and in wealth each year," said Supreme Chancellor Green to an Acq representative. "We now have a membership of 126,000 Pythians, 22,000 of whom belong to the uniformed rank. The membership in the Courts of Calanthe is about 70,000.
"The order is in a healthy financial condition. We have on hand in cash $59,000, of which amount $37,000 is held by the Temple Commission and $22,004 by the Endowment Bureau. The resources of the order, including property and cash, is placed at $1,200,000.
"I consider that one of the big things of my last administration was the securing of a charter by the Grand Lodge of the State of Georgia, despite the strong opposition shown by the white Knights of Pythias. A charter was granted us March 14 of this year."
SOLDIERS MISTREATED IN THE PHILIPPINES
Members of 24th Infantry Compelled to Labor Daily, Including Sunday—Work with Picks and Shovels in Mud and Water—White Soldiers Exempt from Hardships.
Special to THE NEW YORK AGE.
Fort Mills, Corregidor, P. L.—It is asserted by soldiers of the 24th Regiment, U. S. Infantry, stationed at this point, that they are the victims of rank discrimination and injustice, in that they are relieved from soldier's regular duty and compelled to labor every day, including Sundays, with picks and shovels in the mud and water. It is also said that their tents are pitched in swamps where the water flows under the cots, and that the soldiers have to tie their shoes to the cot legs to keep them from washing away.
This regiment has been stationed here for three months and during that time have had to work night and day during some periods. The white soldiers are not required to do this work and some of them sit around and jeer and ridicule the Negro soldiers at work in the mud. There are 1,200 native prisoners at this station, and when the rain starts they are taken in. The native prisoners, it is said, frequently ask the Negro soldiers if they are prisoners, and want to know why they have to work in the rain.
Conditions for the Negro soldier at this station are getting worse every day. The food is plentiful, but is half cooked and hardly more than slops. The soldiers are faithful and willing and are trying to do their duty under these adverse circumstances, but they feel very keenly the humiliating discrimination from which they are suffering.
F A VAN VRANKEN
DIES AT ALBANY
SERIAL TO THE NEW YORK ACA
ALBANY, N. Y., Sept. 10—Funeral services were held Tuesday over the remains of the late Frederick A. Van Vranken, who died Saturday at his home, 278 Second street. Many old and prominent citizens of Albany attended. The deceased was a member of the old Van Vranken family, and was a lifelong resident of this city. He was born in 1856 and educated in the public schools here. On leaving school he became an attache of the State Comptroller's office, when the late Judge William F. Allen was Comptroller. A few years later he took the position of hookeeper in the Kenmore Hotel, where he remained until 1885, when he became a partner of his brother, Francis Van Vranken, in the firm of Van Vranken Bros., merchant tailors, which business relation existed at the time of his death. Mr. Van Vranken has been an active member for many years of the Tabernacle Baptist Church, where he was highly esteemed, as he was elsewhere among a large circle of friends and acquaintances. Mr. Van Vranken was seriously ill but three days.

NEGLECTING EXCELLENT BUSINESS OPPORTUNITIES
Such Is The Opinion of Visitors Regarding Negroes of Greater New York.
DEPLORES CO' DIT ONS
Dr. Ransom Says Our initiative in Business and Lack of Commercial Progress is Lamentable.
The hundreds of visitors who have come to New York during the summer months from various sections of the country have been unanimous in declaring that the Negroes of Greater New York are not taking advantage of the excellent opportunities daily presenting themselves: After observing the large Negro population in Harlem, the visitor invariably wants to know why, in the majority of instances, colored people reside in the flats and the white people occupy the stores beneath for business purposes.
One of those to realize that the New York Negro is not the factor he should be in the local commercial world is the Rev. Reverdy C. Ransom; editor of the A. M. F. Review and pastor of the Church of Simon of Cyrene, who, after asking the question, "What's the matter with the New York Negro in business?" discusses the subject as follows:
"It is often a matter of adverse criticism as to what the ministers and the churches fail to do, or of what they do that should not be done.
"May not I, as a minister, rise to a question of privilege on the laity, churched and non-churched? What is the matter with you in a business way?"
"Just now we are preparing to demonstrate through expositions and otherwise what we have done with our fifty years of freedom, while with a great fanfare of trumpets we have business leagues, local and national, proclaiming the facts of our progress.
"But the fad remains that for initiative in business our lack of progress isamentable. A Hebrew friend, sahl to me. Why do your people keep themselves down? Why don't they rise up like other people and grasp their opportunities? There are thousands of Negroes in Harlem who spend hundreds of thousands of dollars a year, yet they give it all to the white people.
"I told him we had been an agricultural people and had not yet got our bearings in a business way. But he said: 'You have had fifty years. I would think you would be equal at least to the Syrian, the Greek and Italian immigrants.
"The Negroes of New York have thousands of dollars on deposit in the banks of this city which might be profitably invested in modest business enterprises. We need a dozen small dry goods stores, grocery stores, shoe stores meat markets, fruit and vegetable places and delicatessen stores.
"The opportunities for business suc-
one in this business than any mine and more abiding than the value of stock in the Standard Oil Company. Oh, my brothers, hunt up a store room, lay in your stock, equal in price and quality to the same elsewhere and 25,000 Negroes will come and spend more than a million dollars a year with you.
"What's the matter with the New York Negro in business? If he is asleep then let THE ACE be a megaphone to call him until he awakes to his opportunities."
WILLING TO NOMINATE NEGRO
John R. Gleed Says He Is Not Opposed to Colored Man Running for Alderman in Harlem—Says He was Misunderstood—White Republican Leader Refused to Listen to Fusion Plan. Basing his denial upon the difference between "a" as an indefinite article, and "any" as referring to one person specifically, John R. Gleed, State and county leader of the colored Progressives, denies that he said he was not in favor of nominating "a" Negro for alderman in the Twenty-first Assembly District of New York City, but that he did say he was not in favor of nominating "any" Negro, meaning that the nomination of a Negro not qualified, simply because he was a Negro, would not meet his approval.
Mr. Gleed's denial is called forth by the meeting of protest held in Thomas' Chapel, 89 W. 134th street, Monday evening, September 2, presided over by Capt. Herman H. Blunt, chairman of a committee of one hundred, at which time bitter speeches were made denouncing Gleed for his reputed attitude. In making the denial Mr. Gleed emphasized as a fact that he had endeavored to have several Negroes of prominence accept the aldermanic nomination, but without success. In the meeting of the designating committee, at which time the remarks charged against Mr. Gleed were alleged to have been made, it is claimed by Mr. Gleed that he made a strong endeavor to have James C. Thomas, the undertaker, stand for the nomination, but Mr. Thomas declined on the score of expense. That in the meeting of the committee Francis S. Grant was proposed for the nomination and on the first ballot received nine votes, ticing the white man who opposed him, after which Grant positively and finally withdrew his name, saying he could not make the race because his wife controlled his finances and she was not willing he should do.
Louis A. Leavelle, favored by the meeting of protest for the nomination, was proposed also before the designating committee, but on the first ballot did not receive a vote. Mr. Gleed states that Grant intended to withdraw in Leavelle's favor, but after the first ballot Cant. Blunt withdrew Leavelle's name, and with Mr. Leavelle left the room, practically boiling the action of the designating committee.
Mr. Gleed, in explaining his attitude as regards a Negro candidate, said that he tried hard to persuade Mose McKee Republican leader of the Twenty-first Assembly District, to consent to a fission agreement by which a Negro would be nominated, but that McKee refused giving as a reason that a white man had already been selected. Nor could he, by any argument, bring about a change of heart on the part of the Republican leader.
TO SAVE THE OLD HOME OF FREDERICK DOUGLASS
Effort Being Made to Pay Off Mortgage of Property on Cedar Hill
AN APPEAL TO THE RACE
Negroes Asked to do Honor to the Memory of the "Sage of Anacosta" by contributing Ten Cents Each to Raise Fund
Special to The New York Age:
WASHINGTON, D. C., Sept. 10.—Fifty years after the Negro's emancipation in America and thirteen years after the death of the man who, more than any single person, contributed, by his agitation, to the race's deliverance from bondage, the old home of the late illustrious Frederick Douglass rests under a heavy mortgage, and the old mansion, with its furniture, books, papers, art treasures and curios, which were gathered by him, is fast going to decay. The fifteen acres of verdant land surrounding and belonging to the home is but a tangled mesh of weeds and rank growth of trailing vines.
Sitting at the top of Cedar Hill, overlooking the placid Potomac River and the City of Washington, this home is one of the picturesque spots in the District of Columbia. It was bequeathed, with all its contents and land, to the race as a memorial to that gigantic figure who braved the mobs before the war declaring his race should be free, and who as vigorously contented-for the right of suffrage for his race after Lee's surrender at Apomattox.
To those who were wont to make pilgrimages out to "Cedar Hill" and converse with Mr. Douglass when he was living, and who knew of the natural and man-made beauty of the old estate, its present decay, its almost total abandonment to neglect is pathotic. It suggests the question: Has the race reverence and gratitude for those who labored and suffered in order it might be free?
If the property were put up for sale to-day it would bring a big sum, for Washington City has grown up to, and around the old home of the "Sage of Anacosta," and electric street cars, in twenty minutes, can take you from the home to the White House or to the National Capitol. Unless the mortgage under which the home rests is lifted soon the property, the books, papers, furniture and art treasures which were once the pride of Mr. Douglass, and which took him a lifetime to gather, will pass into the hands of some unsympathetic, unsentimental white syndicate, which will raise the memory-stored old mansion to the ground, cut down the grand old oaks and elms whose foliage gave Frederick Douglass a shaded retreat, and cut up the fifteen surrounding acres into building lots and thus destroy forever the last home of the great Douglass.
It would be a lasting disgrace were this race of ten million beings who
PUT OUT FOR WHITE
Special to THE NEW YORK ACM.
WASHINGTON, D. C., Sept. 10.—Like hungry suckling calves which have been kept away from the mother cows, the Democrats are trying to suck all the teats of the government milk bag at once. The edict has gone forth that every position filled by a Republican is to be filled by a Democrat, and it matters not what the position is.
At a recent caucus a set of resolutions were adopted that provide for turning out every employee appointed by a Republican. Even the Negro barbers are slated to go, and their places are to be filled by white barbers. On this point a Southern Democrat expressed himself by saying that he saw many places filled by colored men and he knew they were Republicans because in all his life he had never seen a colored Democrat.
The white man of the old Southern aristocracy would never have countenanced for a minute the ministrations of any but Negro barbers. They placed a white man who did that sort of work beneath their consideration. No better indication as to the class of white men now controlling the South is to be found than is shown in this contemplated action.
SHOOTS WHITE MAN FOR 'CALLING AROUND'
William McLean Finds Frank J. Toner, Prominent Business Man, in Company with His Wife upon Returning Home and Starts to Shoot-Toner Had Been Warned to Stay Away.
BEVERLY, N. J., Sept. 10.—When William McLean, a Negro residing in this town, went home Tuesday evening he found Capt. Frank J. Toner, commander of the Beverly Company of the New Jersey National Guard, one of the crack commands of the State, member of a large liquor firm, a married man with two children, and one of the most prominent white men of this section of the State, in company with Mrs. McLean. Capt. Toner had been warned by McLean to stay away from his home.
The warning not being heeded, McLean, on discovering Capt. Toner with his wife, opened fire, shooting four times in an effort to kill Toner. Only one of the shots took effect, however. Toner being wounded in the left leg. Toner returned the fire as soon as he could draw his revolver, shooting McLean in the right leg. The shooting has caused a great sensation. Toner being roundly condemned by his fellow townmen, and it is said that he will be forced to resign his captaincy in the National Guard. Both men were arrested and put under $500 bail for appearance in court. Mrs. McLean was put under $300 bail as a witness. All gave the required bond. The only witnesses to the shooting were McLean's wife and another Negro woman, who was also held under bail as a witness. It is said that the shooting is the outcome of a long period of infatuation of Toner for Mrs. McLean. Toner, it appears, regardless of McLean's warning, would pretend to be delivering liquor to McLean's house as an excuse for going there.

RULES INCONGRUOUS
White Passengers at Liberty to Fill Section Reserved for Colored, but Negroes Must Be "Jim Crowed"
Rev. Sylvester M. Norwood Compelled to Sit in "Colored Section" Which Was Crowded with White Passengers.
Special to The New York Am.
BALTIMORE, Md., Sept. 10.—Self-respecting Negroes who travel on steamers sailing from Washington and Baltimore continue to protest against the wholesale discriminations to which they are being subjected. It is charged that conditions are unbearable in particular on the boats run by the Baltimore, Chesapeake and Atlantic Railway.
A movement is on foot to secure better accommodations on these boats, and it is the consensus of opinion that if the proper effort is put forth and the money being raised to further the plan is judiciously used, the result will be highly satisfactory to those of the race who are opposed to "Jim Crowism."
On the boats of the Baltimore, Chesapeake and Atlantic Railway the inconsistency of race prejudice is as apparent as elsewhere when at attempt is made to draw the color line in places of public accommodation. Colored nurses, cooks and waiters are permitted to mingle with the whites and no objection is raised, but the "social equality bugaboo" is put forward when a Negro passenger has paid as much for his passenger as a white person and seeks accommodation—not "social equality."
How a well known colored resident of Washington recently boarded a boat hungry and was compelled to wait three hours before he was given something to eat by the colored waiters, and then was taken behind a screen to a dirty hole where the dishes were being washed, is going the rounds. However, the Rev. Sylvester H. Norwood, pastor of the St. Paul M. E. Church of this city, had a more recent experience. In his case the white passengers, as it frequently happens, took complete possession of the section "reserved" for the colored passenger, but he was not permitted to roam on what was designated as "for whites only."
The Rev. Dr. Bragg related his experience to an Ace representative, giving the following narrative:
"On Thursday, August 28, I left Baltimore on the steamer Cambridge for Easton. In the passengers' saloon were two signs: "This section for colored passengers" and "This section for white passengers." I thought as these signs were confined to the saloon space that the deck space where sightseers are permitted to enjoy the breezes best was free to all.
"On my trip to Easton I acted on that inference and started to do the same on my homeward trip. But I was reminded by an officer of the boat that there was in the colored section a seat for me; that I had transgressed on my downward trip, although I had not been disturbed.
"I informed the officer that on my outward trip the section provided for colored passengers had been occupied by whites and that a similar condition existed at the time."
"The officer volunteered to find me a seat with the white passengers in the 'colored section,' remarking that one seat would be enough for me. The seat was secured, although the section was crowded with white passengers and there was an abundance of room for all both within the saloon and on the outer decks. But as the white passengers were not compelled to recognize the sign 'This section for colored passengers,' they crowded me to suffocation in the 'colored section,' filling the stationary chairs and adding to my discomfort by crowding around me with smaller chairs. In the 'colored section' the whites did not refuse to mingle with colored passengers, you take notice.
"I found it necessary to leave my seat for five minutes, and upon my return found that it had been taken.
when I was forced to get another one. thus, my experience shows that on the coasts of the Baltimore, Chesapeake and Atlantic Railway a peculiar condition exists—two different passages for passengers paying the same fare. When I at I was too low to get any breeze, either could I have any bay views; when I stood I could get air from my window, but no breeze:
"I got no relief from lack of air until the boat landed at the Light Street Wharf. My advice to all Negroes who respect themselves is that the only way to dodge such an intolerable condition is to remain off these boats."
MEET AT PHILADELPHIA
Knights of Pythias of Eastern and Western Hemispheres in Thirteenth Annual Session—w. Ashbie Hawkins Elected Supreme Chancellor. Special to the New York Age. PHILADELPHIA, Pa., Sept. 10.—The thirteenth biennial session of the Supreme Lodge, Knights of Pythias, and the Supreme Court of Calathete, Eastern and Western Hemispheres, were held here last week.

NEW BLOOD IN THE PARTY.
NEW BLOOD IN THE PARTY.
There is an old rhyme which swings as follows: "When the monk was sick the monk a saint would be; when the monk was well the devil a saint was be." So it is in most affairs; when the body of whatever sort is well no physician is needed; but when the body is sick; physicians rise up on every hand, so that the patient often dies, from the zeal of those who never saw a medical school, and who were so anxious to save the patient that they would not wait for the great physician with the diploma and the necessary knowledge of medicine and surgery to save the diseased.
The Republican party is sick, a very sick patient, so there are many physicians, both great and small, one or more in each of the forty-eight states, who are striving in their way to save it. All sorts of nostrums are proposed, but the great physician, the great statesman, if he should speak, would discard them all and recommend the old remedies, the old principles, upon which the party was built in the beginning, and upon which it grew strong and powerful at home and abroad. "Equal rights for all, special privilege for none," was the old sign by which the Republican party won victories before it was commercialized. The truth is merciless and cuts down falsehood in politics as in business and personal relations as the angry Saracen's Damascus blade cut down the Christian hordes as fast as they crossed the boundaries of Europe into Asia.
Former Gov. Edward Casper Stokes of New Jersey, who favored the movement to nominate Col. Roosevelt for President last year, but refused to hold the party, and supported President Taft, has been induced to stand in the primaries for the nomination for governor by the Republicans and has a good chance of securing it and the election in the Monument election, as he is very popular with both Republicans and Progressives. He says in one of his announcements that he "stands for the rejuvenation of the Republican organization and a new deal in the Republican party." He thinks the old men who now control the party, and who were effective when young, as county chairmen, should be replaced by young men and blood. "The party interests will be best subserved by the retirement of such men as these and the filling of their places by younger men who are more in touch with and more responsive to current sentiment and opinion," he says. There is a very great deal of force in this view of the matter. The Republican part has become waterlogged with old men in the management, who are always good for council but poor for action.
None of the proposed plans of reorganization of the Republican party comprehend any suggestion that the prostitution and debasement of the election machinery in the Southern States should be enquired into, but we are sure this phase of the matter will force itself to the front as the workings of the new primary laws uncover more thoroughly the viciousness of existing conditions.
Some two years ago the people of Coatesville and one of the United States parished at the conduct of a man of mill men and others of Coatesville, a city of some 14,000 inhabitants, in Chester county, and not a great distance from the Downingtown Industrial School on one hand and Lincoln University on the other, all within trotley car reach of each other. Coatesville is a beautiful mill town, hammed in on all sides by the little mountains which give their peculiar charm to so many Pennsylvania cities, towns and villages, as well as the mineral wealth that give employment and riches to their people. Nature has been beautiful to Coatesville, and her enterprising people have from the industrial and commercial viewpoint done much for themselves and their city. Before the mob of mill men took Zack Walker from the hospital, which nestled on a little mount, strapped him to his cot, took him up a ravine and murdered and burned him, Coatesville was, to all intents and purposes, "unknown to honor and to fame." Only its own people and those related to them by family, business and other ties knew that such a place was on the map.
But the torch that lighted the funeral pyre of the maimed and helpless Walker, who had killed a special police officer in a dispute, directed the eyes of the Nation to Coatesville and its people, who live some thirty-seven miles from Independence Hall, in Philadelphia, and gave them a reputation no people desire to have but it very hard to shake off when once it has been hitched upon them. When a place or man gets the mark of Cain written across its name it sticks.
Coatesville's troubles began after Zack Walker had been murdered and burned. The spirit of vengeance hovered over the people. They had fires and epidemics of all sorts, and when the Chester county jurymen flatly refused to convict any one of the forty mobsters indicted by the grand jury, although the legal department of the State strove honestly, for the honor of the State, to secure a conviction, Gov. Tener recommended that the charter' of the city be taken away from it. The mark of Cain that it had placed upon its name and reputation was rubbed into it by the Commonwealth and the finger of reproach was pointed at it from all parts of the Nation, except those of the Southern States, where murdering and roasting colored people have become so common as to carry with them the sanction of the law and of public opinion.
It is a remarkable condition in any Nation when the people of some thirteen States in a group are no longer a rereach and byword in the land when they have made themselves known as one sort of people who may murder and, roast another sort of people, all of the same citizenship if not race, "without due process of law." It is not that way in Pennsylvania and Coatesville. The people feel the shame and reproach of their position because they are at heart a Christian people who respect law and legal process. As long as the pulse of the people of any State or place in their borders respond to that high sentiment, the highest and best in government, there is hope that they will repent them of the wrong they have done and seek by good works to justify their repentance.
Last Sunday the writer, starting from the Downingtown Industrial School, by trolley and heavy road wagon (the farm section of the Pennsylvania Emancipation celebration, which opens in Philadelphia), traversed some thirty miles of county, looking upon Negro farmers in Chester county. In Coatesville there are most four thousand colored people, the most of the adults of whom work in the mills and receive good wages. In the mill section many colored people occupy tenements in close touch with the Italian and other will workers. In all sections the relations of the races seem to be good. One person said that there were two thousand colored people employed in the mills, some of whom held responsible positions and earned the highest wages. The number must be exaggerated, but the fact that no colored person in Coatesville need be without profitable work, if he wants it, and that they all work in the mills and live in the sections of the city with their white neighbors, and are on good terms with them, although they have separate schools, argues a condition of affairs that induces sober reflection of those who want to get at the root of race relations and conditions without prejudice to any of those concerned.
What the writer seeks for in every situation is the truth. The truth is not always easy to search out nor pleasant from any point of view when located. Many hardships are credited to color and race prejudice that should rather be charged up to bad manner of living and vicious conduct at a critical moment. Zack Walker was far from being a saint. Those who knew him say he was much of a sinner. He was not disposed to run away from trouble, but rather to seek trouble rather than wait patiently for it to find them out. Their offenses many innocent persons into condemnation when the lightning of their wrong doing strikes them at a time that they least expect it. It seems to have been that way with Zack Walker. It is not a pleasant thing to admit that there are plenty of the trouble makers of his sort and worse remaining in Coatesville, who see trouble rather than wait patiently for it to find them out. Their offenses against the proprieties of right thinking and living, far from being condoned, should be condemned. This would be done generally by colored people in the North and the South if the white mobrobors would keep their hands off and allow legal process to have the right of way. When the mob takes matters in hand, and threatens by its lawless methods to life and property of all the Negroes in a given locality, it naturally makes a sort of hero of the victim of the mob, however much of a miscreant he may be, with whom all of the Negroes must sympathize in his violent taking, although they may have despised him in his life time.
All Negroes do not look alike nor act alike, any more than all white people do, but most white people regard them as being all of one likeness and character, and seek more and more everywhere to treat them after one manner, and that the hardest and most provoking, so that the Negro as to his worst and best, feels that he is in the suspect class, "on the list," and must hang together in calm and storm lest he hang separately when the moboerats find them out. That is, lawlessness tolerated in white people will breed lawlessness in colored people, and at the psychological moment, when the two come together in a clash, they wreck things, as in the French Revolution and in our Slave War. We then call them opposing armies, but they were first opposing mobs in Paris on the one hand and in Baltimore on the other.
It is just to say that the Negroes of Coatesville drink more red liquor and amber beer than is good for them, and that they don't buy many homes nor deposit as much money of their hard earnings in the savings banks as the foreigners and native whites with whom they work in the mills and who receive the same high wages they do. This is a common failure all along the line that makes tremendously for disadvantage and drawback. Much missionary work is needed in places like Coatesville to teach the people who do not attend the churches, and their numbers are increasing everywhere, the higher and better way. The preachers in such places should get about among the non-church people and teach them, in the open aid and in their home and places of notorious resort, the philosophy of life and of living, which in the main is of more pressing moment than the philosophy of death and dying, so much of which we get from the pulitrix and so little of which we need in the factory, mine and field.
Friday night, August 28, a terrific electric storm passed through the Middle States, doing all sorts of damage to property. Such manifestations have become to be regarded as natural, and are accounted for by the learned, who have the matter in hand, to the satisfaction of farmers and others affected. We respect their faith but question their wisdom. The lightning never strikes a person or thing without a purpose, with a controlling will behind it. As we rode for miles about Coatesville, with Zack Walker's tragic taking off before us, it was distressing to note on every hand that hail stones had slithered the fodder of the green corn, as if it were done with a knife, for miles and miles of acreage, and that now and again giant oaks had been shattered by lightning, "the artillery of heaven," and lay dead upon the earth. Every effect has its cause!
THE ENGLISH RIGHTS LAW.
"The Equal Rights Law" is now in force in New York State. The new statute is far more sweeping than the old one, and places New York in the front rank of states in forbidding discrimination against any person on account of race, creed or color, at any place of public accommodation. The law is as follows.
All persons within the jurisdiction of this state are required to take and comply with accommodations, advantages and privileges of any place of public accommodation, regardless of the limitations established by law and applicable to all persons. A place of public accommodation, of this article, is deemed to include any inn, tavern or hotel which can be conducted, for the entertainment of the traveler, health, recreation, or rest, and restaurant, eating house, public conveyance on land or a bathhouse, bar shop, theatre, and
The law should have a restraining influence upon the very large number of persons licensed to cater to the public accommodation and amusement who of late have made the color line "a dead line" in their business, here in New York, which they have used to insult people they regarded of the unproper shade of color beauty, and have been protected in most instances by the police in their insolence and vulgarity.
The new law was made primarily to protect the Jews, but it protects colored people equally, being an enlargement of the old civil rights law, which did not include creed.
KEEPING COLORED MEN IN OFFICE.
President Wilson has very nearly turned out of office every colored man that he found in office. There are a few left, however, including Collector Cottrell in the Hawaiian Islands and Mr Charles W. Anderson, Collector of Internal Revenue in New York City, and the Recorder of Deeds in Washington.
When President Wilson, at the behest of Vardaman, Hoke Smith and others withdrew the nomination of Patterson from the Senate for the office of Register of the Treasury, he gave notice to the Democrats and to the country that he would not send the name of another colored man to the U. C. Senate if there was objection on the part of the Vardaman type. This means that Mr Wilson has tied his hands. There is one thing, however, which the President and the members of his cabinet can do. While they, perhaps, for the reasons mentioned, cannot get another colored man nominated for an important position, they can let the colored men who are now holding office remain in office, and this we hope the President and members of his cabinet will be wise enough to do. It will be a difficult task to make the colored voters of the North and West understand why a man like Charles W. Anderson should be removed from the position which he now holds for the sake of putting a white Democrat in his place.
MRS. WILSON AND THE COL
ORED VOTER.
We are reliably informed that very soon after President Wilson took possession of the White House, Mrs. Wilson, the wife of the President, made a visit to several of the departments. She was surprised and disgusted to find that colored clerks were working in the same room with white clerks. She was even more upset when she discovered that colored clerks and white clerks ate their lunches out of a bucket, paper bag or basket in the same room. She at once caused a movement to be put on foot by which colored clerks should be separated from white clerks when they ate their lunch, and starting in this way it was easy for the movement to spread to the point of separating the two classes of clerks when at their work. Mrs. Wilson was born in Georgia. She has not had a chance to grow much and learn much since she left Georgia. Nevertheless, her narrow and provincial ideas have largely prevailed in the departments at Washington.
Colored voters throughout the country should remember that if it is disgraceful for a colored person to eat his lunch in the same room with a white person, it will be equally disgraceful for any colored man in the future to vote at the same ballot box with a white man for the election of President Wil-boor.
COUNTRY AND CITY LIFE.
COUNTRY AND CITY LIFE.
Do you prefer, city or country life? Which is the more healthy and profitable? And are persons left free in choosing for themselves the place they will reside in and the occupations they will engage in to make their daily bread and meat and a penny over for the rainy day? All these questions have been and are being discussed in all lands, and especially in our own, because of the wonderful increase in population, the natural tendency from the country districts to the city districts, and the failure to produce enough food stuffs in the country to feed those in the cities with corresponding advantage to both. People are no longer satisfied with steady occupation and a living return for their labor, either as wage earners or independent workers in any line; they want more than that; they think they do; they want to make enough to furnish them with the luxuries, in many instances the extravagancies, of life, for themselves and an added fortune to bequeath to their children. It is not possible to do this in the country districts. The average farm will yield a fair living for the industrious; so, the sons have been leaving the farms in the United States ever since the commercial era set in after the Slave War, most notably in the abandoned farms in the New England and Middle and the Southern States.
But colored people are just like white people in this matter. Some of them want to get rich quick, and imagine that this can more easily be done in the city than the country districts, and have not only flocked to the cities of the South but those of the North and West, as the whites have done, since 1876. And, too, the city life offers attractions in every direction that the country life does not and never will offer. This phase of the matter is the most difficult to deal with in the case of both colored and white people, especially the younger ones. The real countryman has to be born, soil of the soil; it is difficult to manufacture, to create him, when he has been born in the city or with his face towards is.
The Negro is, naturally, a countryman, a ruralist, but he is easily spoiled by a trip to the great city. Our farmers in all sections should be encouraged to send their sons and daughters to agricultural schools, so that they may return to the farm with knowledge to improve the productivity of the land their fathers own and to add to the acreage. It will be found a difficult task to induce the hordes of colored people who have gone from the country districts in the past twenty-five years into the large cities to return to the country life or to convince their children that it is best for them to do so. They can't see it. They have made human ties and material obligations from which it is hard to break away; so hard that they will not in most instances consider the matter at all. Yet, some few will return, with much persuasion.
The proper work, then, is to encourage colored farmers everywhere to send their sons and daughters to agricultural schools, where they will be prepared for the higher, better and more effective work of farm and country life. Then too, there should be an organized effort in the cities of the North and West to induce the people who come from the farm districts of the South to seek employment among the farmers of the North and West. Such an organized effort could do much to relieve the large cities of the ever increasing number of colored people who become "floaters" and "hand to mouthers," whom the police have to watch.
SEGREGATION STILL IN FORCE
As will be seen by the following order issued in the Treasury Department, segregation is still in force. While, as we stated in our news items some days ago, the signs have been painted out, the order remains in force.
The order follows:
To Superintendents and Chiefs of Divis
Government: Referring to the notice of July 15 last, to the effect that toilet rooms for the exclusive use in the northeast corner, basement floor, of the Treasury building, you are advised that in formal clerk's office that said order is still in force. Please notify any of the em players of your respective divisions who may be affected thereby.
Acting Executive Officer.
It will be noted further, that according to the above order no one in the Treasury Department seems to have been brave enough to sign his name to the order. "Acting officer" in this case is meant to hide a cowardly act. The race, however, holds the Wilson Administration responsible. That is where the responsibility rests, and the colored people throughout the country cannot and will not be deceived.
THE FREDERICK DOUGLASS
HOME
We are glad to call attention to the fact that the colored papers and organizations throughout the country are beginning to agitate the matter of removing the debt from the Frederick Douglass home.
This is a matter of vital importance. This debt should be removed during the fall and winter. Not only is it necessary to remove the debt, but a considerable sum of money ought to be collected to improve the premises, which should remain for all time the mecca for our race.
Let every one do his duty in this important matter. We shall be glad to receive contributions to this fund and will publish names of donors.

have some unique experiences that
will be a class of adrenaline junkies
will be representative.
We hope that our readers will help us
make this trip a success.
Mae the President Keep My Pledge to the Negro Voter?
Mr. President: I greatly regret that the statement made by you at an interview grounded the prior discussion on the candidate for president, because the candidate for the Democratic party as its candidate for president, request of you, was the time that when you were the candidate for governor of this State a number of colored people if you became the candidate and if elected to office what would be your attitude if further stated to you during the course of the interview that very many of this class of voters felt the time propelled you to become the great political parties of the country—the Progressive party not being in existence at the time of our people, for the enrolment of the National government the civil and political rights of our people, for the enrolment of the political party must secure the direction of the National government the civil and political rights of our people, for the enrolment of the office was concurred to be a minor consideration in being accommodated in public activity and to secure to ensure to insure the civil and political rights of our people in traveling in being accommodated in public activity and to ensure to insure to ensure to insure the lynchning of our people, all of which was so connected with traveling and to prevent the lynchning of our people, all of which was so connected with traveling and to prevent the lynchning of our people, all of which was so connected with traveling and to prevent the lynchning of our people, for a colored man to advocate the principles of that party he was looked upon by the member of the party to us that the violence against us was attracted for doing so; very many of us were willing to accept this if in so doing a better relation would be especially between the two races capably in the South.
You replied to these statements by stating you were very glad to learn that such was the case. You pointed towards yourself and towards the Democratic party of which you were a member; that if you were a member of the Democratic people the condition of the colored race is this country particularly in the South where you are now; that should you become the nomenclature of the Democratic party and be elected to the office of president of the conditions of our people in this country especially in the South that we complain of you will use your best effort deavot to secure a change that would be for the benefit of our people. You further stated that under the Constitution and its amendments would be rigidly enforced by yourself, that you must feel and feel that you were and would be their friend. As to the public offices to be filled should you be elected that it might be done by you. You would be some now held by them, that when this could not be done that there would be others to be equally as honorable and as lucrative as those bled by them. You further stated that in writing as it might be used by your political opponents to your detriment before the convention then soon meet, that if such would be your course; that I was at perfect liberty to make known your attitude as to your feelings to colored voters of this State and country.
"(Signed) WOODROW WILSON."
Acting upon these statements made by you, organizations of colored voters were established. This fact may be not known to you, but it is well known to those who had charge of your campaign. Many of those who entered this election were not only the recipients of any compensation for their services, paying their traveling expenses and in some cases contributing toward your campaign fund, but also electing your pet cent. This vote, Mr. Roosevelt, the Progressive candidate, about 40 per cent, the Republican candidate, Mr. Taft, the remainder, the Democratic candidate, without the electoral vote of Massachusetts, New York, New Jersey, Ohio, Indiana, Illinois and Michigan, each of which are considered colored votes is the balance of power, you could not have been elected. You, therefore, one very largely to this class of voters you could ensure your place as president of this country.
Mr. Cleveland, when he became president, conceived the happs thought that colorist racism was a symptom of a Democratic field in what was known as the Black Republics, they were rightfully entitled to this continent. Following this thought he named several to South American States. They were the Negroes and the Senate at the time being of an opposite political faith. This can be be said of both of Mr. Cleveland and the Negroes, a friend of the Negroes race and had the backbone to stand by them and to see that justice and right was accorded them. This was not the case for many men who could be induced to vote the Democratic party ticket, unlike the many who at the national contest cast their ballots in your favor.
Have you considered attempted in the slightest wave of inquiry any of the pledges that your organization has fulfilled in the past, those who have rallied to your standard and supported you have been cast aside. They have been taken to a stone instead. The happy relation that have existed between the clerks of the several departments for those many years you have worked in, has been endeavoured to sunder in the effort made to segregate them to separate rooms. This idea has not been for the attitude of the honorable Senator from Minnesota, Mr. Clapp, in introducing a resolution in the Senate in 1995 that the Senate had been established. All honor is due to him by my people in calling the attention of the nation to appoint colored men of things. Your failure to appoint colored men of things and trust heretofore held by them because the United States Senate would not confirm them as a less resourceful man than yourself. As contra distinction to this thought is your action in shaping pending legislation in the Senate, which will influence the industrial and mercantile interests of the country, the "Currency Bill" destined, in shaping pending legislation in the Senate, which will affect their political destiny, it would be mackery for any one to think that divergent views on these measures of both the rich and poor alike. If there is any on your part can compel the members of divergent views on these measures of both the rich and poor alike to willingly follow your behests in this legislation and follow it in confirming those who may be your selection to such offices. There is. I am not powerless in your part, or a desire to do so. I will not say that there is a lack of hardknock in you to do it. Those who know you know that you are not lacking in this direction.
We had hoped in your election as president of our common country that a new era in our history would be open to us one of progress and opportunity. We had hoped in a full recognition of our rights to those privileges which are the inestimable rights of all Americans who have been denied in these many wars. We looked forward in the hope that under your guidance all this would be changed, but the facts prove that these cherished rights are devised in the mind and that for a while longer we must continue to drink from this bitter cup. I cannot believe, sir, the policy you have advocated for, the support of the Democratic party. I know it has not in the North and West and I fully believe that there are many fair and just policies that we must devise the elimination of these racial
to commend the service of the United States Army in the war with the German Empire. You are the most valuable asset of the American people of the country that country may care in the life of us.
In the plan of the Progressive Democratic party that was launched on November 3, 1912, which started on in vengeance at 4:14 p.m. on the morning of November 4, 1912, and which began of other themes that the degree of American providence was about to be, they hoped for it a safe conclusion. We have been faithful on this voyage, the country has presented our peace, the peace of nations has been maintained from the country forever, in doing this we have entrusted to your care for another four years. This assistance, sir, you will not bear unless a change comes in the management of this vessel, which you are now steering upon the rocks of unreduced plains and prairies. I can assure you, your doctor, it will be a hard task before the destroyer, the Nature will again be entrusted to the care of the Democratic party.
I have the honor to be, sir,
Courteously yours,
W. P. FOWELL.

Boston, March — "Lucky" Mrs. Lucy Spaulding, a Chicago society leader, almost missed today the steamship that was to take her to Europe. Considering the nerve racking that she experienced in her home just before she came to sail for the other side, she was in excellent health, and spirits. Her beautiful jewels, including her diamond ear rings and handsome pearl necklace were seized by the man she was supposed 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 loadstones which she almost invariably wears in her chamois bag suspended in her bracelet. She is 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 roid was made upon her home by a gang of "skewmen" as villainous as the men of pirates that ever sailed the sea.

When seen in the elegant dining room, I wendled and she said: "I just arrived from my room cago where I had a horrible but very enlightening experience. I had made up my mind to come here and surprise a childhood friend on my way to kind of Europe. Well, I am not kind of of Europe. I change my plan, so I came just as if nothing had happened; but when I arrived here in the hotel and enquired for my friend, I found she had left yesterday to visit her aunt in Atlanta and to take a bite to eat and am going to take cab to the steamship pier at once."
Asked if she would not tell how her landstones had saved her life and her jewelry, she replied: "I fear there is not enough time but I ask you have heard enough of the to do about it. I may as well tell you so you will get it straight. In the first place, if I had not foolishly taken my landstones off the night of the burglary, because I was going to wear them, I would have been troubled by the thief. I have had such wonderful luck, in almost

The beautiful woman smiled as she
spoke and showed teeth that seemed
to glow in her handsome loo-
nerl necklace.
"Previous to Leit," she continued, "my round of social duties was so exacting that I welcomed a sensation in what had become so it seemed, 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 Vendone. I complained I would fall from him, but I accepted to take the train for the Hulu. 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 my trip. I am quite sure I was in the 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 had made, jumped from my dressing table and geized me by the throat.
"He was a horrible looking mgn, and had my diamond ear rings and pearl necklace in his other hand which he closed at once. I tried to scream, but I was slip on my throat because I was strong enough to could breathe. I was not able even to whisper. Struggling to free myself from his grasp. I rolled partly from the bed, my right hand striking the door. I felt something between my hand and carpet. In spite of my awakening, I 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 know that I was trying to do, but I was not making an effort to get away from him.
"Finally I managed to get my hand over that part of the bag in which the stones rested. As I did so I felt the man shudder. He let go of me and sprang toward the window. In his hand he grabbed a 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 the woman in the aisle of the avenue. He left a battered derby hat at the foot of my bed and an ugly looking chisel on the window sill. "Then I just hung the loudstones around my neck and shall never take them off again. I value them more than anything else. I certainly consider them lows. 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 Bonde, a professor of chemistry and scientist.

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 being helped by my dear old Southern 'mammy' 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 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 a scholarship from my husband's prosperity, 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 bring but just to intuitively believe that he 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 Narrargasniet Pier last Summer. Before I in the toilets of 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 enjoy being in the water very much. I was back, and then discovered the cord back and I had lost my loadstones.
"I was almost frantic with grief and fear. I did not know what to do after making a palmaking but unsuccessful search. A friend who knew me proudly told me that the Master Mineral Company for 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 store by. As a proof of their own secrecy I was told that I was having strangled by the burglar. 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," but that is the difference in landstones: "but the 'Lucky' Mira Spaulding was asked
"There is a vast difference," she replied. "Some people think loadstones ought to be heavily magnified; but scientists say that theory is wrong. If the loadstones are too highly magnified, 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 illuminating gas. You know it is our personal magnetism, so much talked about, that enables

us to control others and make them do as we wish. With a pair of loadstones such as I now have I can make almost anyone do what I desire."
"Suddenly Mrs. Spaulding looked at the second 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 sat here talking instead of getting to the vessel. What should I do?"
"Why not try your loadstones and make the ship wait for you? she was asked.
"That's a good idea," 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 that something awful would have happened to me 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 coiling so that the "Lucky Mrs. Lucy Spaulding" would time to go on board in a hidesmatter way.
"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 Bonde, African Traveller, Montauk and Scalefist.
Asked by the reporter if he might be the lucky stones for a very few minutes in order that he might get a lot of salary, the fortunate possessor of the powerful loadstones showed unmistakable signs of alarm.
Don't you know that it spoils loadstone to let any one else beh it; that the owner only may me in contact with it? I wouldn't even my best and most intimate friend loadstone's peculiar power is the individual. The way to get I keep that peculiar power is to be a pair of loadstones and let other person touch them. Before they have done so much for me, I always tell to tell others about my property, to have the do for it. If they wish to have the property, health and good them they should get a pair of loadstones for themselves.

OCCASIONS EXCITEMENT IN INDIA
THEATRICAL COMMENT
(BY LESTER A. WALTON.)
WE are reliably informed that the white residents of Calcutta, British India, have worked themselves into a temporary state of mental aberration over the prospective visit of a white American female dancer, who does her terpsichorean specialty a la decollette, which, in this instance, means more than the baring of arms and shoulders. It is said that the dancer in question wears on the stage just a little more than some of the African natives of the tropical clime.
The cablegram from Calcutta states that "the fear is generally expressed that the appearance of a white woman on the stage under these conditions will endanger the prestige of the white women of that country in the eyes of the natives."
The white residents of India seem to be unduly solicitous about the prestige of their women folks. If the white men who reside in that country respect the members of the gentler sex, and they, in turn, respect themselves, they need not have any apprehension that the appearance of the white American dancer in scanty attire will occasion a panic among the natives of India.
In taking such a stand, which it is hoped has been actuated solely by high moral motives and not because of race prejudice, I pause to wonder how much respect many of the white male residents show the native women of prepossessing appearance—if they are looked upon as having any prestige to preserve.
In India the white residents need not be unnecessarily alarmed over the appearance of the dancer. However, were they in New York and saw some of the latest styles worn by American women on Broadway their uneasiness would be, to employ a phrase often used by our lawyers, "relevant, material and in order;" for over here their attire, or rather their lack of attire, in public really startles the natives and makes the unsophisticated gaze in wonderment and oftimes blush for shame.
Maxine Elliott and Color Line.
There was published in one of the Hearst papers a few days ago an article purporting to have been sent from London to the effect that Maxine Elliott, the beautiful actress, made the unladylike statement: "No 'nigger' shall ever touch me." The actress is supposed to have uttered this crude remark in protesting against the employment of black men as carriers in the play, "Joseph and His Brethren," which is being produced at the Majestic Theatre, London, under the management of Sir Herbert Tree.
Of course, from long experience we have been led to learn that much of what we read in the Hearst papers of a sensational nature about the Negro is more mythical than real; that while these papers shed much ink of various colors in screaming about the rights of the "common people," it is seldom that a drop is spilled in demanding 'fair play for the colored American. It is not necessary for one to sit in studied perplexity trying to figure out the policy of a newspaper toward the race when it goes to the expense of having such rotted from abroad to be used for the "edification" of its readers.
Maxine Elliott is a very beautiful woman, but all beautiful women are not refined, cultured ladies. In the past Miss Elliott has been kindly thought of by the colored Americans who have had an opportunity to come in contact with her. She has never protested against colored Pullman porters gallantly assisting her on or off the cars, and members of the colored theatrical profession who have been in her society have had nothing for her but kind words.
Assuming that the article appearing in the Hearst paper bore the earmarks of authenticity, if Maxine Elliott has taken a strong aversion to the Negro it is doubtless due to the fact that she has caught the fever—colorphobia—which had its origin among the Bleases and Tillmans of the South—a disease which distorts reason and makes vicious and foolish all who are unfortunate enough to become its victim.
If Miss Elliott would become reminiscent and recall the colored persons who have touched her—Pullman porters and the like—she will be forced to admit that coming in close proximity to them did not give her hydrophobia; neither was her great beauty impaired.
The psychology of color prejudice is interesting; that is, if one does not become enmeshed in the bewildering mazes of the so-called problem by reason of its innumerable inconsistencies. Maxine Elliott is reported, as having refused to allow two black men to carry her in a certain scene, then two white men were employed, who were blackened up.
Now, if Miss Elliott has such a strong antipathy to color, how was it that her mind was set at ease when she appeared on the stage with two black faces just the same? True, they were not the real thing, but they were black—of that species of black that is apt to rub off and
get on the actress while she is being "touched." Miss Elliott reminds one of the absurd position taken by some vaudeville managers in this country. They do not care to play colored acts at their theatres, but let down the bars to book acts in which white performers appear in blackface.
I wonder if Miss Elliott would refuse the aid of a negro were she about to drown and the saving of her life was contingent upon a black man touching her? It is probable that she would assume an attitude similar to a Southern white, who takes great pride in telling you that he nursed the breast of a black mammy, but who, on the other hand, grows red in the face and, choking with emotion, yells "Social equality!" when a citizen of color walks into a restaurant and sits at a table fifty feet away.
As has been heretofore stated, the source whence the information came telling about how Miss Elliott made herself ridiculous is such that we much prefer to give the beautiful actress the benefit of the doubt. But if she made such a spectacle of herself, even for advertising purposes, let her remember that "Pretty is as pretty does."
WHITE CRITIC REPLIES.
To the Dramatic Editor of The Age. A local subscriber to your paper has just shown me your "Note" in your issue of the 4th in regard to criticism of my friend, S. Tutt Whitney of the Smart Set Company, who recently appeared here, and am writing a few lines in an enamel to dispel the "puzzling" situation mentioned. The article, of course, was for local absorption, primarily, and of course you will admit that the conditions under which the performance was given here and the nature in which it would be received would hardly be exactly the same in every town; then, admitting that all facts are merely relative and truth is only a point of view, let me say that I believe that it was the fact that you were not in close range that caused the "complexity."
First, the show played our best house and catered especially to our representative white audience, some of whom sat the first act through before they found it possible to waive the color line and judge the skit for its real histrionic worth without prejudice.
Second, as to the wash girl—that should not surprise you in the least. She was honest, clean and fairly intelligent. Also she was the companion of my kiddies when they were little tots and the custodian of my home in vacation time. Later, when my little boy folded his arms about my neck one night and said: "Daddy, I see tired," and closed his bonny blue eyes in the sleep that knows no morning, it was this same colored wash girl who silently stood with the grief laden parents endeavoring to reconstruct the pinnacle of faith from the vacuum of tears.
"Surprised?" You need not be. In this southern country the "white gentleman" is the faithful Negro's best friend, and if the Negro "checks up" to the required standard, whether he needs a contribution for his church, support for his college or a dime for a snack, there is little difference—the always has a white friend to go to who understands his case perfectly—and he sees what he goes after and no questions asked. The writer has always endeavored to be fair and "color" cuts no figure in defining loyalty or merit. Sincerely. JAY.
EDITOR'S NOTE.—The above communication from "Jay," the dramatic criticism of the leading daily of Bristol, Va., puts a different and more agreeable understanding on some references he made in a review on the new show of the Southern Smart Set Company to which we took exceptions.
In the paragraph of his letter which is numbered "First," the critic explains what he meant by declaring that the bronze beauty chorus was enjoyable when the point was reached where it did not hurt to look and listen to it.
In the paragraph of his letter numbered "Second," "Jay," we are glad to declare, puts a different aspect on his reference about his former washerwoman. In fact, what he has to say touches the heart-strings. It is regretted that he was not more explicit in his review.
"Jay" deserves credit for his ability to distinguish between the various elements of the race as well as his desire to make himself correctly understood. Yes, the white Southern gentleman is the Negro's best friend, but nowadays with the Tillmans, Vardamans and Bleases running at large it is difficult for the Negroes in the North to differentiate it to who is who. It is unfortunate, but race oppression and race persecution are making us suspicious even of our friends.
LAFAYETTE THEATRE
With the beginning of the new theatrical season Manager Nibur inaugurated a new policy at the Lafayette with reference to his bill. Heretofore he opened the house shortly before 2 o'clock in the afternoon and a continuous show was given until 11 o'clock in the evening. Co mening Monday a policy was put in force. First show from 1 to 5; house closed between 5 and 7. second show from 7 to 9.15; third show from 9.15 to 11.30. This arrangement gives those who come after 9 o'clock an opportunity to see a full show.
Copeland and Payton headlined the ball the first half of the week in their sketch, "Fun in a Dining Car," and well deserved the position of honor. Although quite a delegation was on hand from the Monday Club to give Andrew copeland a big send-off, this act scored on its merits. With a stronger closing number it should be true for the big time. Copeland and Payton use special scenery, which enhances the value of their skit. All the linen used is clean, just as you find it on the dining cars. Some colored acts please take notice.
Rita Costa, billed as a "dainty singing comedienne," wears pretty costumes and is good to look at, but there are many
girls in the vicinity of 135th street and Lernox avenue who have had no stage experience who can excel her as a singer. Why not give more colored female singles chance? The Musical Millers have an act which is good in spots. Their opening number was marred by the display of too much energy on the part of the traps and drums section of the orchestra. With a little more preparation and the development of temperament the act would make a stronger impression in vaudeville. Rutledge, Pickering and Company in a comedy sketch, "The Fatted Calf," and Fay and Miller in their skit entitled "The Boob," helped to make the bill enjoyable.
CRESCENT THEATRE
Cooler weather and the presence of the Crescent Stock Company had a tendency to make business good at the Crescent the first half of the week. "The Birthday Party" was the title of the piece presented by the stock company, in which Hunter and Martin were the chief funmakers. The company is making their sketches enjoyable by not putting on long-drawn-out affairs.
Howell and Lee opened the bill. Some of their entertainment is good, but there is too much horseplay. The introduction of a new style of dress—an evening coat with tan shoes and brown trousers—is not apt to be copied in Harlem.
Maude Jones continues to improve her act. In connection with her songs she gives a recitation which shows that she is versatile.
Russ John did a Jewish character and was given a big hand at the close of his act.
The three-reel motion pictures are viewed with much interest.

With the launching of the theatrical season of 1913-1914, there is every indication to believe that the vaudeville field will offer the colored performer plenty of work, unless another Jack Johnson incident occurs.
At the Lafayette Theatre last week the team of Eaton & Broad was billed, but in reality Eaton & Stafford appeared. The act was the hit of the bill. The smaller member of the act is a comedian of some promise. John L. Eaton is now working with "Bobby" Mills, as Eddie Stafford is rehearsing with the "My Friend from Dixie" company.
Chris Smith and Jim Burris, two well-known song writers, have opened a studio at 60 W. 134th street. They are devoting much of their time to writing special songs for performers. They are publishing their numbers, the latest being "A Wise Old Mosquito," "Always, Forever Always" and "The Little Bit of Loving I Had for You is Gone, Gone, Gone."
Hodges and Launchmere are telling of their unusual experience while playing at the Victorit Theatre, Rochester, last week. Thursday's matinee was attended by college students, who lustily applauded Hodges and Launchmere. The manager is said not to have taken kindly to the ovation given the colored performers and immediately terminated their engagement.
Tom Lemonier writes from Chicago that State street reminds one of New York just now, as quite a number of performers are on the stroll. The Pompei Cafe is the headquarters of the vaudevillians, and Tom Lemonier has nothing but good words for the place. "Lemonier Day" was recently celebrated at the Pompei, which was fittingly observed.
"BLACK PATTI' ILL.
The Black Patti Musical Comedy Company was scheduled to open its eighteenth season this week, but owing to the temporary illness of Mme. Sissieretta Jones (Black Patti) the initial appearance of the season was postponed. Judging from the 'present outlook there is not much likelihood of the company going out until October or the first of November.
Mme. Jones' condition is not serious. She recently underwent an operation for throat trouble and her physicians have ordered her not to work for several weeks. The well-known singer's mother is also in ill health, which has been another reason for her desire to open the season later.
Manager Rudolph Voeckel, in the meantime, is making arrangements to surround "Black Patti" with a lively aggregation of young singers and dancers. It is very likely that Harper and Gillam, the two very promising comedians, will be at the head of the fun-making department.

French Lick Plutos' Record.
The French Lick Plutos, of French Lick, Ind., are traveling through the Northwest at a lively clip. To date they have played fifty-six games and won forty-nine, losing but seven. The club's record for the season is: Played, 105; lost, 30; and won, 75. The team has met such clubs as the American Giants of Chicago, which they shut out, I. to 0; the West Baden Spruedels and the A BCs of Indianapolis, from which the Plutos took five straight games.
Langford Wins Easily.
Sam Langford and John Lester Johnson met in a scheduled ten-round bout Tuesday evening at the Atlantic Garden A. C. The match did not last long. But three blows were passed: Johnson went down twice from kidney punches, taking the count of nine each time. Referee Billy Moore stopped the farce when Johnson fell over on his back without being hit, holding his side as if in pain. The match was a big fizzle.
Howard Squad to Report.
The Howard University football squad has been ordered to report for practice Monday. September 15, at 3 o'clock. Manager P. A. Taylor left Chicago for Washington Monday. Howard's squad is expected to be the strongest in years. There are about twenty new recruits on the list.

St. David's
church activities at St. David's started in fall on last Sunday, with the return of the short from its vacation. At the morning service the rector, the bishop, the clergy and the celebrant at the Holy Communion. The evening service was largely attended despite the indecency of the weather. On September 1, Labor Day, the Fresh Air Home at Silver Lake, Lake Superior, was closed for the season. It was the hope of the rector and his advisers that the home could have been kept open during the winter months for the accommodation of consecrate mothers and sickly children, but the rector and his advisers special work had to be given up. It is gratifying to believe however that the three hundred and fifty persons who were guests at the home during the summer enjoyed and benefited by the work. The work for the fall and winter promises to be one of great usefulness, and of absorbing interest in every department. The social activities will begin with an 'Autumnal Tea concert', which is given in the chapel. David's September 25 under the auspices of the Lakes' Auxiliary. The annual fair will follow in November with a number of interesting events, not the which is to be given to the guest at the New Star Casino February 10.

A messenger for the station and extended out into the actual room greeted Dr. E. P. Roberta on his return from abroad. She handed messenger at 4 o'clock in the West Side 3d street. Dr. Roberta is chairman of the Branch, and had been abroad for more than two months. He returned on Wednesday.
When Dr. Brooks presented Chairman Rob
win the audience gave a round of applause and then rose and gave him the Chantequier saint. Among everyone Dr. Roberts said: "I am not a man who but for my health and for study. At Marilyns I met many colored people—English colored people as you will see in a Harlem block. But there is a marked difference. The colored people you meet there are not paddy people, but are very smart and own people here. You will not know of their presence until you are very near them. Many of them are very smart and own people, that sort of thing, which you can see in Europe. That is largely true, if all one needs is to have a good time and spend his money in Europe. That is getting in and get ahead in the world, this is the best country on the entire globe. While thruud, and especially while on the ocean, I have time to talk to people, to talk to my relations with my followings, and my duty to God. I resolved that whatever my life was, I should I shall try to make it better in the future." Miss Leonard was then introduced, and told of her work for our women in St. Paul, and for young men in that city.

Near Sunday afternoon Mrs. A. W. Hunton, secretary, to Secretary W. A. Hunton, will be the teacher.
