VOL. XXVI. No. 51 NEGROES FORM A CIVIC LEAGUE All Party Lines Are Ignored In The Organization of New League WANT ALDERMAN IN 21ST Rousing Meeting Held at Thomas Hall, Harlem, Monday Evening and Method of Procedure Mapped Out PROGRESSIVES SCORED Rosevelt Takes Part in Addermack Fight by Defining His Attitude Through His Secretary. Representative and influential citizens of New York City gathered in large numbers at Thomas Hall, 89 West 134th street. Monday evening, to take steps looking toward the organization of a Civic League, which will conduct a campaign to secure Negro representation in the administration of the city's affairs. This meeting was the result of one held at the same place September 2, when resolutions of protest against the action of John, R. Gleed and Francis S. Grant in preventing the nomination of a Negro on the Progressive ticket for a Alderman of the Twenty-first Assembly District were adopted and ordered transmitted to Theodore Roosevelt, Francis W. Bird and Theodore Douglas Robinson, national, county and State leaders of the Progressive party. Monday's meeting was presided over by Capt. Herman H. Blunt. A nominating committee of twenty-five was appointed to meet Friday to designate an aldermanic candidate for the Twenty-first Assembly District, after which a meeting of the voters of the district will be held to ratify the nomination. Among those receiving consideration for the nomination the men most prominently mentioned are James C. Thomas, Sr., the undertaker; John M. Rowall and Philip A. Payton, JF. two of the city's leading real estate agents. Committee of One Hundred. A committee of one hundred, representing, every section of Greater New York, will be named, and, with this committee as a nucleus, a Civic League will be formed which will be designed to forward the claims of the Neighbors of New York, regardless of party lines. The movement has the indemnement of all elements, including the Rev. Hutchins, C. Bishop, the Rev. A. Clayton Powell the Rev. F. A. Cullen, the Rev. J. H. Taylor, the Rev. P. C. James, John M. Rwall, Philip A. Payton, Dr. H. M. Grisham, Leroy, Wilkins, Archie Roberts, counselor J. C. Thomas, Jr., Gilbert Young, E. Hutchinson, Barrard D. Wilkins, John W. Connors, Dr. D. W. Ohlson, R. Moore, Chas Simmons, Claire F. Lee, W. T. R. Richardson, Capt H. H. Blunt, D. E. Tobias, Robert R. Ladson, Counselor Robt. N. Waring, and a number of others. A committee of five, headed by John M. Royall as chairman, appointed September 2 to formulate and transmit resolutions of protest to the Progressive party heads, made its report. The resolutions set forth the desire of the alder voters for a representative on the aldermanic ticket, which desire, it is charged, was frustrated by the attitude of John R. Gleed, the Negro State and county leader, and Francis S. Grant, a Negro member of the County Committee, and the removal of Gleed and Grant was demanded. The report showed that the committee called on Theodore Roosevelt, Francis W. Bird and Theodore Douglas Robinson. The committee stated that it was prevented from seeing Mr. Robinson by a colored clerk, and so it was necessary to mail the resolutions to him. No reply has been received. An interview was had with Francis W. Bird, county chairman of the Progressive party, who read the resolutions. The committee reported that Mr. Bird, in his attempt to explain the situation, was neither straightforward or satisfactory. He tried to exculpate Mr. Gleed and said he believed Mr. Gleed had carried out their wishes. Roosevelt Says Color Should Be No Bar. A call was made on Theodore Roosevelt on September 5, and an interview was had with his secretary. Frank Harper, who promised to bring the resolution to Mr. Roosevelt's attention. On September 12 the following letter was received from Col. Roosevelt: I put that resolution before Mr. Roosevelt and he read it. He has asked me to assure you and all your friends who called a few days ago that he has no sympathy whatever with the statement alleged to have been made by Mr. Gleed "that the time had not come when a colored man should receive a limination at the hands of the Progressive party." As a matter of fact, Mr. Roosevelt gave his cordial support to the inclusion of a colored man on the Progressive ticket in his own county, Nassau county, and Mr. Roosevelt voted for him, as he would vote for any other upright man, whether white 'Coachboard on Page 2' NAPIER TO STEP DOWN SATURDAY Special to The New York Ace WASHINGTON, D.C., Sept. 17.—J.

RIGID INQUIRY IN PRISON HORROR ASKED Negroes Throughout the Country Shocked at Texas Prison Tragedy—Surviving Convicts Tell of Long Death Struggle in Dark, Close Dungeon for Air and Water—Guards Refused to Give Aid. Houston, Tex., Sept 16—From every section of the United States the authorities here are receiving communications from Negroes urging that those responsible for the prison farm horror, in which eight colored prisoners were smothered to death and died in convulsions, be prosecuted to the full extent of the law. That someone must be held responsible for such a tragedy is the prevailing sentiment. Ollie Brown, John Douglas, James Curtis and Edgar Evans, the four prisoners living to give hair-raising accounts of their experience, will be valuable witnesses for the prosecution. Jim Curtis, one of the men who outlived the horror, tells of how he held his lips against the tiny crack under the door that let in just enough air to keep him alive. Curtis says that Carlton Vance, seventeen years old, one of the victims, had a fit and began biting his foot; that he called for help, but the authorities paid no attention to his cries. Finally became quiet and Curtis pried the boy's teeth off his foot. Then Curtis discovered that young Vance was dead. At the time, however, he did not know that any of the other prisoners had met death from suffocation. Inhaled Air From Small Molec. Ollie Brown, of Dallas, saved his life by getting air from one of the tiny holes in the back of the cell. He put his head against the wall and pressed his mouth and nose against the hole where he lay all night. John Douglas, of San Antonio, although he survived, says he had been in chains for two days; that he was chained to a high feet were on their tiptoes. According to Douglas, four of the other prisoners had been in chains, that the only water received was in the cell in a small basket. For all the prisoners hours before he came the from lack of air and water. Elear Evans, of Jellies, tells the following tale: "They gave us water at 3 o'clock and when we begged the guard to give more he said he was not going to. At night one of the boys was having a fit and kept telling for the boy to turn him out, but the boss will not make him any answer. We told him they were dying. He said if we didn't get down on our nose we still stay there a month. When long John Harrison Vance) but Jim (were) we told him a boy was dead, and said we would all of us wash we were dead before we got out." County Attorney Gives Version. Dr. H. Carroll, the First Bend County attorney, in describing the facts as he found them, upon personal investigation, gives the following account: "The following may be said to be the ascertained facts: Out of the dark cell in the convict bank house at Harlem Farm No. 3 there were taken on Sunday morning. September 7, about 5.30 o'clock, four living men and eight dead bodies, all the living and dead being young Negroes convicted of felonies and serving short terms in the penitentiary. "All of the dead men and two of the living had been in the dark cell since noon of Saturday and the others had been there since 6 o'clock Saturday evening. "Water had been given to the men in the cell at 3 o'clock on Saturday and at 6 o'clock and at 8 o'clock. Within half an hour after the last water in a little baking powder bucket had been given to the men they were screaming for more water, which was not given to them, and the doors of the cell were not opened between 8 o'clock Saturday evening and about 5.30 Sunday morning. "At 9.30 o'clock Saturday evening one of the Negroes Clarence Vance, went into the convulsions that preceded death by asphyxiation from lack of oxygen, and in his dying convulsions bit Jim Curtis, another of the Negroes." "I. M. Fain, who was on guard from 6 o'clock until midnight, was repeatedly told that a man was dying and later that he was dead inside that cell. Every scream, every call and almost every word that was uttered in that death hole could be heard by Fain and could also be heard by the seventy-five Negroes in the bunk house. "Toward midnight the struggle the fighting and the screams didd down, because, it is probable, eight of the men were dead by that time and the rest were unconscious or almost so from carbonic acid gas poisoning. Dr. O'Farrell, the county physician of Fort Blend County, who examined the bodies when they were taken out, said that all of the men probably died before midnight, and that all of them probably died in convulsions, with the dark, unoxygenated blood gushing from their mouths and nostrils and foraine fomny, hobbily pools upon the floor, where it quickly decomposed."

Taking up a position facing west on a step of the pedestal, and uncovering his head, the Governor delivered the dedicatory address. A fund was opened in England in order to defray the cost of the memorial, and the cost of the erection was defrayed from money voted by the Legislative Council of Sierra Leone for that purpose. RALEIGH, N. C., Sept. 16.—The people of this county are aroused over conditions existing in two of the county convict camps, as shown by an inspection made by a committee appointed at the August meeting of the County Commissioners. The special committee reported to Judge Cook that it found camps 2 and 3 in horrible conditions. The prisoners were compelled to sleep on the floor with only seventeen inches space to each person. The bedding was dirty and infested with vermin. No facility was offered for bathing and the men's clothing was in a filthy condition. The food was poorly cooked and furnished in insufficient quantities. Marks and bruises on the bodies of the prisoners showed that they were whipped unmercifully. Public indignation has been aroused and steps are being taken to punish the officials responsible for the depolarable conditions. CONVICT CAMPS IN THE LIFE OF MARY C.

EDWARD WILMOT BLYDEN THE OFFICIAL UNVEILING CEREMONY THE GOVERNOR THE OFFICIAL UNVEILING CEREMONIES PRESIDED OVER BY THE GOVERNOR OF SIERRA LEONE SECRETARY DANIELS AND COLOR LINE IN THE NAVY BASS INDICTED ON LARCENY CHARGE Special to The New York Age Washington, D.C., Sept. 17, 1917. Officials in the Navy Department are again using the color line insignia to prevent Josephus Daniels, Secretary of the Navy, from carrying out projected innovations in the service. The latest Daniels order excludes adaptability as a controlling factor in the qualifications of candidates for commissions in the navy, and the officials are trying to show Secretary Daniels that this exclusion will wipe out the color line and make it possible for Negroes to be appointed as commissioned officers in the navy. Recently a Negro passed the examination for admission to the naval dental corps, but was rejected solely on the ground of non-adaptability. If Daniels latest order is enforced there will be no preventing this Negro dentist from again taking his examination and obtaining his commission. Not long ago Secretary Daniels proposed the abolition of messes on board the ships of the navy, but abandoned the plan when shown that it would compel white men to eat at table with Negroes. He has shown no sign, however, of abandoning his order to exclude adaptability in considering the qualification of candidates for commissions.

Gay- Ror on board steamship while on the way to Europe in the hope of benetit- ting his health, not only threw a great shadow of grief over New York, and the Nation, but put in greater coniusion than it was before his death the three tornered municipal contest in which he was a candidate to succeed himseli as Mayor. “He was a man who knew grief and was acquainted with sorrow. All the active days of his life as a man and citizen he strove to make real ideals in the home and the State, such as poets dream of, only to die at last irom the effects of the assassin’s bullet fired into his body three years ago. Of him it may be truthfully said that a great man has fallen in New York. ANOTHER SOUTHERN DEATH- TRAP. In Tue Act of July 31 we directed editorial attention ty the burning to death of thirty-three Negrs prisoners on the Oakley convict farm. near Jackson, Miss, when the wouden cage in whieh they were confined, in the second story, was burned, There way to guard at Qand to let the vwtins vut of the fire trap, or to alarm the neighborhood and strive to put yut the dames, The help- fess creatures were burned heyond ree- ‘ognition because vi the criminal negli- Bence of the State and its agents. One Of the tests vi the civilization of a time and people iy their treatment of their criminal and dependent members. The conviet system of the Southern States is)as brutal as that of Russia, the least civilized of the states of Europe. The following dispatch describes a scondition in Texas no less brutal than that of Mississippi: Richmond, Texas, Sept. 8 Aroused by the suffocation Of cight Negro convicts is an un- derground celt at the State Prison farm Sat. urday night, the Governor of Texas, the At torney General's Department, the Prison Com: mission, and the local antheritics began, a0 investigution today.

What is t be thought of a time in which such things can happen and of the people of a state who toterate ‘them, “getting busy as a bluff” after they occur and of a nation whose re- sponsible spokesmen are silent about then for the most part, while contin- w+ denouncing the Tike condition whee done yunder the Russian penal syste n? : \ say again, we need a Negro Pr *y Association to work for better cor cons for our unfortunates.

That which is to-day soon becomes yesterday. * - During the school year last year there were reported many clashes between the white and colored school population, more especially in the Harlem District, and much undertone talk of movemerits looking to the separation of the races in the public schools. We have derived so much advamtage from the mixed instance where they are not forced upon them.. It is a delicate business in which Tar Acx led the way, that it should be a point of honor as it is of vital interest to keep a close watch on all separation movements. It behooves. parents to lec- ture their children constantly to. avoid clashes with the white children in every instance where they are not forced.upon them. It is a delicate business in which | parents and children can afford to work together for the common advantage. , Out at Roslyn, on Long Island, the school authorities have forced separate school conditions upon the colored people, althiough the question as to their right to, do so is still pending on appeal beiore the State Department of Education. Under our State law they also have an appeal to the, courts, When the Roslyn schools opened Tuesday of last week fiity-six colored childcen marched to the high school and demanded admission, and were denied. They were advised by one of the parents of them to disband and they marched back to the school set apart for them, But the incident will leave a bad taste in the mouth of the children, and a legal right on the hands of” the parents that will embitter their feelings and strain their intercourse as iellow townsmen, It may also stimulate separation movements in other parts of the State. The race policy should be, at Roslyn and everywhere else, {9 tight to a finish to keep the public school advantages we have and to add tv the number of them. EVIDENCES OF AMERICAN DEGENERATION. In all parts of the world the people of the United States are now regarded as a vulgar lot of braggarts and blusterers, who consider themselves better than others, whose feclings they are not bound to gespect, and who act as if rude manners and “a big bunch of money” can open any sort uf charmed Penetralia’ Ten years ago we found this te he so in iar-away Japan, China and the Philippine Islands. The stolid little brown and yellow people looked upon the rudeness and vulgarity .of American tourists with open-mouthed amazement and were ‘not appeased by a liberal “‘tip” tossed here and there as scraps are tossed to strange, hungry curs. The conditions have not improved, but rather grown worse in ee ‘past ten years, Not long ago-President Wilson and his family automobile party were turned away from a Raltimore restaurant because they were unknown and the restaurant people were “too rushed to be courtevus.” Last week Miss Eleanor Wilson, a daughter of the President, was unable to secure & lower Pullman berth between New York and Cornish, NX. H., the summer home of her parents. After the train left New York two male iriends of the President's family went through the car and found that all the lower berths were occupied by men. They were appealed to to exchange berths with the daughter of the President, but, says the account, “There was not a man on board who would give up his. berth. They all said the same thing, that the President's daughter could sleep in an upper berth as well as anybody else.” This is a shocking display of rudeness and vulgarity, but it is to be met with on every hand, We have frequently seen a car full of men glued to the seats, in New York and elsewhere, while a woman with a baby in her arms swung on a strap. The following editorial swipe of President Wilson's Secretary of State, who has declared that his salary of $12,000 3 not enough to keep him and Mrs. Bryan in grape juice and white radishes. bears upon the same subject: Davaw startles Washington, Leaves on tour with ‘acrobats, mesmerizers and conjurer.—Headlines in the Paris Matin. The foreign press can be pardoned for failing to understand the tue inwarineas of the Chautauqua circurt and for auwuming thatshe Secretary of State is touring the country a4 4 member of 2 troupe of one night atand mountebanis. The unpardonable thing iv that Mr. Bryan bas given grounds for this foreign impression of the activities of the Secretary of State of the United States of Ameticn—New York Sum, The same newspaper quotes Mr. Owen Johnsun, on his rewrn from a long stay in Europe, as follows: . Rucht hete I must mention one thing that is the sespair of Americans Uiving abroad It is the way American news is, treated in Europe. Pevple are being taught that we are & tution of Jack Jobnions an! Harry Thaws What they print over there about us is mostly freak stull—mairiages by moonlight and 80 08." And what American newspapers, expecially the daily newspapers of New York, print as news for the home market “is mostly freak stull,” the record of each day's sayings amd doings reading like so much geish from the press of crime, greed ahd sharp practices—-the inllics oi high Hie and the excesses and crimes of low life. * The decay of national manners is viciously and malicivasly in evidence, with corresponding distexard and contempt for the rights and feelings of others: and this is not only shown to be true in State and Federal legislation and judicial interpretation af the constitutions and laws, but in the public and private inter- course of individuals, fr used net te be that way, Far fram it The old Puritan culture and kindliness of the North and the old chivalry of the South have passed away, crushed under toot hy the common surt of European heweomers comMined with the same sort naive to the sail, and the ureed for great wealth and vilgar display of it at home and abroad.

When the new American ype of average man shall have heen evolved out of the present mix-up of people of all races it will be a greut thing if t can be said of the Negru that he is mong the most cultured, reiined, dignisied and courteous of Americans—-a thing t is now difficult to say of any of our many race types. They are all in the fusing pot. What they will look like as the new American type, when they come ut some three generations hence, will be urilike any people who have gone fore them, The Negro is.already very much a part of it, and will he a great deal more so when the new type shall have been evolved. He should strive so © educate his children as to be of the highest and best and net of the lowest nd worst part of the new Americanisin: THE NEW TARIFF LAW. Atter a prolonged struggle the Senate hax passed the taritf bill fathered by President Wilson, by a vote uf 44 t0 37, two Republicans, Senator Cummins vi Wisconsin and Senat..r Poindexter of Washington, voting wath the Demoerats. and tye Democrats, Senator Thornton and Senator Ransdell of Lanisiana, vot- ing with the Repeblicans, It is said the bill was adopted with all of the fea- sures for whieh President Wilson has vontemled—"free wool, free sugar. free meats and greatly reduced duties on all oof the necessaries of Infe.” Lhe tall now goes to conference between the two houses, and it is expected that Jit will become a law within the next ten days.

In Tue Ace of September 4 a party who signs himself “Ajax” indulges in the following facetae: “There ate many of your readers wh o fed that yeu are not sincere in your statersent that yu have no disposition to torture Rishop Walters tecause of is afftiations with the Vemacratic party. but it 14 the consensus of opinion that your repeated attacks upon this eminent churchman has had no other end ia view hut the one that you are at auch pains sw eay. ‘There ate many who would like to know si THe Ack 1 a0 sehcitous. about the po: fincal actisines of Mishap Walters when at no lume has there been any ensure coming from fe chure® either through ity Board of Bish: nya ut ate cenferences.” We are sincere in whatever we -say wid de Che attitude toward the Bishop in pulttiey would he the same if he were ae eee ad ia Regebdians is gt w ft Thing” tor- the Bishop ef a: geagt church to engage ac- tively im? Wa my emphatically that it is not, and we have had opportunity to study tHe.thing at first hand for many years. The only’ safe. authority we have on this subject. isi stated io Paul's first epistle to Timothy, chapter three, verses ‘one and seven inclusive as follows: “This le a tone wying, 1a mam desire wh office of a bishop he desireth a good work. A bisbop must be Hameless, the husband o one wife, vigilant, sober, of good. bebaviour siven to bospitality, apt to teach; not given to wine, mo striker, mot gretdy of fithy lucre but patient, sot a brawler, not coveibus; one that rufeth wall his own house, having bit chil reo in subjection with all gravity—tor iC man know not bow to rule his own bouse hhow shall be take care of the church of Ged? not & novice, lat being lifted up be fall into condemnation of the devil. Moreover, he must have a goed report of them which ure tcithout, lest he fall into reproach ond the snare, of the deci.” In his epistle to Titus Paul says the same thing over in the first chapter and seventh verse, as follows: “For a bishop must be blameless, as the ~steward of God, not self-willed, not svon angry, not kiven to wine, no striker, not given to filthy lucre.” It is possible for a bishop te be a leader in partisan politics and not be a “striker.” “greedy of filthy lucte” and not fall igto “reproach,” hav- ing always his “good feport” where he can put his hand.upan it whenever and wherever the devil fronts him and re- quires it of him as a guaranty of good faith; but ought a man to subject his bishopric to such grave danger? That is the question for our bishops and churchmen to consider and answer. Ik is a begging of the question to re- cite, the many and honorable positions Bishop Walters holds in church urgani- zations other than his own, to‘show the high esteem in which he is held, as we know all about that, and are one of those who-so hold him; the question of combining the work of a bishop of the church and the work of a leader oi par- tisan polities in the same man, in which he priests of the’ Royran Catholic Church haye always failéd in Europe and those of the Protestant Churches wave never succeeded in Europe or America, is not affected in the East, in he morality of it, by the esteem in which the Bishop is held or whether Tie Ace is for oF against “the Negro preacher.” Any assumption that THE \ur: is against “the Negro preacher.” ‘currently reported” or otherwise, is ure assumption and not sustained by he facts in the files of THe Ace. Should Bishops and preachers engage \ctively in partisan politics? That is the wuestion. COLORED LABOR IN DELA. WARE. There have been many news tems and editorials in the Delaware papers during recent weeks bearing upon the iailure of colored labor in the canning iactories of that State, It is pretty well known that one of the ‘principal industries of the State of Delaware consists in eanning vegetables and fruit, In past years culured people, especially, young boys and. girls, have been largely depended upon ty de the serk uf canning, Wathen the past few weeks several of the largest and most important facies have discharged colored labor and have replaced this by white labor, In every vase the managers affirm in emphatic language: that they are fond of colored people, that they prefer colsred labor, tue the fact is they cannot get the col- ered people to work regularly. In a word, they cannot be depended upon for constant tabor. They “present a de- piorable sitvation not oly for the peo- ple in Delaware but in other sections of the country, : Here is an opportunity for the cul- tured ministers and teachers, business leagues and what not in Delaware to take hold ‘of this matter in a whole- sowled manner and bring about a te- form among our people. There should be a general campaign throughout the State of Delaware with the idea of im- pressing upon young and old people the importance of making their labor re- liable, especially in the important indus- try of canning.” It cannot be sajd that this loss of labor has been lost to us hecause of the color line being drawn: this is not trie. We have simply lost this important work in Delaware because the colored youths have proven themselves ineffi- sient, Let every minister and teacher speak to the parents and children plain= ly from month to month on this sub- ject and see if our race cannot regain in that State what we have lost, WHAT THE CHURCH OWES TO THE COMMUNITY. Now is the time for every pastor of a church to begin to plan for his fail and winter work, He should keep be- fore hm constantly these questions: AVhat can my church do to serve the community? What new plans can T adopt? What new policies can 1 put in motion? What is the greatest need of the community in which my church is Ineated? How ean my church help the people from a material, educational, re- ligious and social point of view? What can my church do for the. women? What can it do for the young people? What can it do to promote the business aASES Ul: chs" oeittnlty 40 Wee the eplabtand? i : The day has loag hince paséed whes people ate ready and willing to support a.cherch that” vimply. goes through a certain form of religious ceremony week after week without having any grasp ‘on the real life of the people. The church of the future that will be sup- ported and will have increase in num- bers is the church that wlil pug itself at the head of all the social activities that concern the people in that community. Many ministers receive small pay, many charches are practically empty, for the reason that the minister has never been wise enough or strong enough to iden- tify his church with the actual life and needs of the community. In musi cases the sermons preached by our ministers have little or no relation to the life and [needs of the people who hear those ser~ mons. In many cases they are simply stereotyped sermons gotten: out of some ‘book on “sermonizing.” The day is past when a minister who pursues this policy can hold his church or exert influence among his people. GETTING UP ON A HIGHER PLANE. Itis lamentably true that among our hest educated people. to say nothing of the more ignorant, that there is seem: ingly a growing tendency to condemn and'find fault with one’s neighbors. In- stead of advertising the strong points of out race, this tendency is to adver- tise the weak points. Our educated people should set an example for the more ignorant in the direction of teaching the people in the community that continual fault finding, adverse ctiticism and the’ holding up of one's vices does not help the com- munity oF race. When one gets up in the morning he should do so with a resolve to the effect that he will try to spend the day in hetping somebody instead of trying to pull somebody down, It is much more satisiactury from every point of view to help than to hinder. The current of whole lives is, often changed through a kindly and encour- aging word spoken at the right time. Ik cosis no more to speak in a kindly way of our neighbors than it does to be continually pointing out their weaknesses and vices. eo KNIGHTS OF PYTHIAS SHOULD CONSIDER. We note that there seems to be a de- termination on the part of the Virginia Knights of Pythias to bring action in the Cited States Court t6 compel the national organization to comply with certain conditions which the Virginia organization demands Two things we want to say. First, it is a great blunder for our sccret organ- izations to go into the courts to have their differences settled by people on the outside. It is costly. Not only that, but it advertises our Weaknesses to the outside world, The second thing is this: Conk nut the wo parties connected with this con: troversy agree te select an arbitration Imatd of colored people composed of three, five of seven memebrs, and each party agree in advance to he guided by the findings of this board? It would be fess costly and would ac- compliss the same results ast loag drawn out teal an the United States Court, ‘The only thing that any sat could dee would be ty give an spinian based upon Taw and custom, An arbi- tration board could do exavtly the same thing. THE COLOR LINE IN BOXING. Tun Ack has heretofore dirccred at- tention to the objectionalle and inde- iensille rule adopted by the State Ath- lene Commission prohibiting “mixed bouts” in New York State; that is, box- ing contests between black and white persons, and questioned the legal right hf the commission to make and eniorce any such rule. ©The commission has just now refused to abolish or modify the rule s0 that Sam Langiord and Gunboat Smith could appear together in the ring, under the auspices of the Garden Athletic Club, in Madison Square Garden. The decision was in the nature of a surprise, as those interested in, the boxing ‘game had Ucen led to believe that the commission would revoke or modify the rule. ‘The right of the commission to make and enforce a rule of that kind, based upon “race and color,” should he tested in the courts. A rule like that should not be allowed to exist in New York State without exhausting legal process to determine the constitutionality of it As no white athleticr assertion has moved to test it, some esfored one should move te dy sv.

Wright Bulldog Address at Opening of Emancipation Proclamation Celebration at Philadelphia email to Txn New York Am. Philadelphia, Pa., Sept. 17.—Prof. R. R. Wright, president of the Georgia State Institute of Public Administration, was one of the principal guests of the Emancipation Proclamation Celebration in this city Sunday. Wright said in most: Officer of the Commission for the Constitution of the Fifth Anniversary of the Emancipation Proclamation Lands and Gentlemen: "It must be acknowledged that it is the coincident that where the evidence of American Liberty had its direct contact to celebrate the Fifth Anniversary of the American Encryption Program, very singular, indeed, that the proof of the Declaration of Independence and the author of the Emancipation Proclamation were both manifestly involved in the progress of American liberty. Negro liberty, but it is worth firmly believe, that the Emancipation Proclamation is as much a American life as the Declaration of Independence, and the outgrowth of the stresses of the demands of war. We must have, however, that as long as the deceleration of Independence stands, one will stand the Emancipation Proclamation today few men who were acquainted with Abraham Lincoln, the Harper of the great American drama of the seventeenth century. But there is no doubt does not regard the emancipator America's hero and one of the chief humanitarian. In making this statement with reference to the Emancipation Proclamation, I do not to be contended by the most admirer of Mr. Lincoln that it was his chief purpose on subjugation of the United States to so manage his administration, whether with or without war, regarding the Emancipation of the slaves. Reliable historical information confirms the opinion that it never Lincoln's purpose to emancipate the slave contrary to his belief and not salvation of the Union and the sacrifices of war demanded it, the Emancipation Proclamation would not have been issued by Abraham Lincoln, certainly not at the time it was issued. The war of drove him irreversibly to the assurance of his acceptance of the Emancipation Proclamation September 22, 1862 and of the Emancipation Proclamation January 1, 1863. He said to those who were in arms, if you will lay down your arms, I will not emancipate your slaves by the edict of war, but if you do not lay down your arms against the American Government, the (called) rebellion exists, the slave shall be forcibly "Had the God of Freedom so ruled that the southern men had laid down their arms, the Emancipation Proclamation would not have been issued to declare that there is a Divinity that shapes our end, roughhew them as we may. Long long before the Civil War it was plainly written in the Book of Fate that slavery was doomed. Inury pungent, a single laurel from the brow of the great emancipator. Whether or not he was master of his own fate, he alone can tell. Suffice it for us to know and the world to give praise to he was the author of one of the world's great events of the nineteenth century. "Now withstanding this, we believe that in the course of events, slavery would have gradually become extinct in America. For none can fail to recount the fact that slavery was one of the reasons the territory occupied by slavery gradually became less every decade. Slowly it dragged itself from New England down to the Gulf and State after State found it unprofitable to do so. The fact that slavery became one of the reasons when slavery because of its own impunity would become extinct. Then too for moral reasons, the conscience of the nation, hardly less sensitive in the South than in the North, gradually becoming the most important human slavery. The fact was showing the fact of the impunity in the walls and streets in that were recorded in them, men who felt that it held the human lives. Those walls and the walls slaves. But whether the events or by the war, the Emancipation Proclamation an event which stars true men.

"Let us face the problem before us with the best wisdom and supreme patience. As we take notice of the fact that the southern white man has beaten us, stripped us of nearly every garment, denied us all political equality, let us notice also that he not only has beaten us, but has beaten the northern white man as well, taken from him every prominent place in the national government and forced him to do obeance to every whim and principle dear to his heart. While noting this, let not be cast down. We are entitled to a place in American life. The South is not at heart against us; it will one day recognize our value, and may be too one day the North may again wake up and under as Southern leader like us, recognize equal rights and equal opportunities for all men without regard to race or previous condition.

Mrs. Lucy Spaulding, a Chicago society leader, almost missed today the steamship that was to take her to Europe. Considering the nerve racking air 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 swoke and discovered him in her room. She attributes the saving of her gems and her life to two load stones which she almost invariably wears in her chlamys bag suspender, in her chlamys bag. It 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 raid was made upon her home by a gang of "dogmen" as villainous as any band of pirates that ever sailed The "Lucky" Mrs. Spalding as she appeared at a Man's Yard's and same hall. When seen in the elegant dining room of Hotel Vendome, she said: "I just arrived from my home in Chicago where I had a horrible but very enlightening experience. I had made a mistake in my first grade a childhood friend on my way to sell for Europe. Well, I am not the kind of a woman to let a burglar chance my plans, so I came just as if nothing had happened; but when I arrived here in the hotel and enquired about yesterday to visit her aunt in Atlanta, So I just stopped for a bite to eat and am going to take a cab to the steamship pier at once.

The beautiful woman smiled as she spoke and showed teeth that seemed to seem in her handsome teardrop necklace. "Previous to Lent," she continued, "my round of Sunday dates was so exacting that I welcomed a session in what had become one it seemed like a mad office 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 concluded I would from them. The chum I was taking the train to the Holy 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 of my trip. I am quite sure I was going to 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 seized me by the throat. "He was a horrible looking man, and had my diamond ear 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 scarcely breathe. I was not able even to whisper. Strugkling to free myself from his grasp. I rolled partly from the bed, my right hand striking the floor. I felt something between my ear and my hand. I sank in ananguish. 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. (0) course the burglar did not do, but thought I was simply 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 I felt the man shudder. He let go of me and his effort to climb out, he dropped diamond ear rings and pearl 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 his hand in the window, and avenue. He left a battered derby hat at the foot of my bed and an unlucky looking chisel on the window still. Then I just hung those loadstones around my neck and shall never take them. I was afraid that than all my jewelry, for I certaintains consider them jewels.

"I am not ashamed to say now that I was being helped by my dear old sister, 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 which I will explain later. I have to save enough money to buy a pair of loadstones. It was marvelous how soon good fortune came my way. In a very short time I received a letter from 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 my graduation was married. My husband was a professor 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 him but just to tell him that I bought 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 Narrarsanstert Pier last Summer. Before I inched into the bathing 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 bought a new cord 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 my trouble told me to send for my maternal grandpa to send 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 such store by. As a proof of their power see what the did for me when he made an inside joke. 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." That is the difference in load-stopping. "The lucky" Sirr 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.

With a pair of loadstones such as I now have I can make almost anyone do what I desire.” Suddenly Mrs. Spalding looked at the monochromed 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 soil, and I have set here talking instead of getting to the vessel. What is it that you want 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 so this steamer is going to the coast. What would have happened to the if I had got on board.” A cab was called and the reporter accompanied the women to the dock. There it was found that a sufficient delay had been caused in cooling so that Mrs. Lace Spalding had plenty of time to go on board in a hastily 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 Bond, African Traveller, Needs 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 rise of salary, the fortunate possessor of the loadstones showed unmistakable signs of trem. "I 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 even my own hand into the interior of my own loadstone. The loadstone's pouther power is the individual. The way to get it kept that pouther power is to train a pair of loadstones and let another person touch them. Because they have done so much for me, I'm always able to tell others about them. Let them know if you do or do not. If they wish to hear more, prosperity, health and good fortune, then they should get a pair of loadstones for themselves.

WALTON.) NOW is the time when all the theatre-goers who find much entertainment in colored theatrical attractions are in an expectant mood over the outlook for colored productions during the season of 1913-14. There is no disposition on my part to pose as a disciple of gloom, but after looking over the situation it is difficult to make any other statement than this; There is nothing to enthuse over. Writing about gloomy prospects for the colored theatrical profession is becoming a habit. When the fortunes of the colored performer take a turn for the better it is hoped that our writers will be able to thoroughly appreciate the new and novel situation. This reference to "hard times" is not with regard to the vaudeville field, but the musical comedy world. : In January, 1908, when I assumed the duties of dramatic editor of THE AGE, the following large colored shows were on the road: The Williams & Walker, Ernest Hogan, Cole & Johnson, Smart Set and Black Patti companies, not to give specific mention to the half dozen smaller shows of less note. But since then—my, how times have changed! It is unnecessary to refer to the disappearance from the scene of action of three of our leading comedians who did so much to elevate the colored theatrical profession; neither will a resume of memorable incidents of the past, such as the closing of three of the largest colored shows, make pleasant reading. Despite the series of tragedies which have o'erwhelmed the members of the theatrical profession and those directly interested, in recent years the spirit of optimism has prevailed and all have looked toward the future for renewed inspiration and more favorable conditions. Season after season have we religiously hoped, but all in vain. It was thought that with the debut of the season of 1913-14 Dame Fortune would be more kind and usher in a new era more pregnant with evidences of prosperity. But, alas! Instead of conditions growing better, they have become worse. With the new theatrical season already launched, the two principal road shows which survived the stormy seas of previous years are still in port. And, what's more, at this writing prospects of one of the companies, the largest and most representative, going out lack the vermillion tinge. It was given out Tuesday in the office of Charles Barton, manager of the Smart Set Company, that there was very little likelihood of the Dudley aggregation, filling dates this season. This information has come as a big surprise, as only a few weeks ago it was announced, that Charles Barton and S. H. Dudley had gotten together and had agreed to do business. Chorus people were advertised for, and Monday a number of performers assembled at Maennerchor Hall, 203 East Fifty-sixth street, to begin rehearsals. S. H. Dudley was in Washington, but at the office of Charles E. Barton the ambitious ones were informed that Mr. Barton had not advised anyone to call a rehearsal, and that the probabilities were no show would be out out this season. The inability of Mr. Barton to get the desired booking is said to have brought about the latest decision. It is said that he was assured by the Stair & Havlin people some weeks ago that the Smart Set Company would be given choice dates which would give the management an opportunity to realize a profit at the end of the season. However, when Mr. Barton called to get his route he found that the promise made him had not been kept. The manager of the Smart Set Company asserts that it would be inadvisable for him to take out the show with such undesirable booking, as he would lose a large sum of money on the season. For several weeks S. H. Dudley and Henry Troy are said to have been at work on the book for the contemplated new production, but no word has been received at the New York office as to its completion. Who was to have been composer of the musical numbers is also unknown on this end. It is said that there is a bare possibility of the Smart Set Company going on tour this season—but that the possibility is very, very bare. For the first time in eighteen seasons the Black Patti Company is in storage at this time of the year. Its tardy appearance is due to the illness of Mme. Sissieretta Jones (Black Patti), who is being treated for throat trouble. However, her condition is not serious, and the show is expected to open some time in October. Just when rehearsals will begin has not been decided upon. The non-appearance of the Smart Set and Black Patti companies at the opening of the season has put the Southern Smart Set Company; with S. Tutt Whitney and J. Homer Tutt, in the foreground. It is the most prominent colored show before the public at this time. The company is now touring the South, and later on will visit some of --- the large cities in the Middle West and East. Business is reported good. There is a possibility of two new shows making their appearance before the season, has gained much headway, but to date their plans are of a tentative nature. Nothing definite as to their futile movements can be given out at this time. The Negro Players, headed by Rogers & Creamer, who made their initial appearance the fag end of last season at Philadelphia, are rehearsing, and it is expected that the desired booking will be secured for the attraction before long. J. Leenbie Hill is preparing to take out his My Friend from Dixie Company, and is rehearsing daily. The question of booking will also determine the fate of his venture. Managers of colored attractions might just as well come to the decision at once that the theatrical map, relating to colored shows, must be changed. In the future the Southland, with its large population of colored amusement lovers, must be seriously considered in all booking calculations. Yes, times have changed. No longer can Louisville be regarded as the southern boundary for our large colored shows. If a season of good booking is desired such Southern cities as Richmond, Nashville, Memphis, Atlanta, Savannah, Augusta, Macon, Birmingham, Mobile, Montgomery, Jackson, Natchez, Columbia, Spartansburg, Charleston, Raleigh, Charlotte, Durham, Willington, Dallas, Houston, Austin, New Orleans, Mobile, Shreveport, Jacksonville, Pensacola, Tampa and Little Rock must be included in the itinerary. If times aid conditions have changed there is but one thing for managers to do if they want to be successful in handling colored shows—act accordingly. THEATRICAL JOTTINGS.

Prof. Carl and his two trick dogs opened the bill at the Lafayette Theatre the first half of the week, the two members of the canine family showing a mentality bordering on human intelligence in a number of instances. The dogs are well trained and are very entertaining. T. F. Rogers, the only colored act on the bill, has a strong dancing finish: He was liberally applauded. From now on the patrons will be favored with more colored turns. A musical tabloid, entitled "The Mysterious Dancers," contains much to commend. The girls are trained dancers of the English pony ballet type, and the scenery and lighting effects are of big time caliber. The other acts which helped to make the bill well balanced were the Caullett Players in the comedy sketch, "The Trail of Mary," and Woodbury & Brown in singing and pianologue. Motion pictures, produced with colored actors, will be shown at the La Woods Theater of the week. The pictures made a big hit at the Grand Theatre, Chicago. CRESCENT THEATRE The Crescent Stock Company put on another funny sketch the first half of the week, entitled "The Dime Social." The piece went big with the patrons, for "The Dime Social" ended with a "rough house," causing some to think of socials they had attended. Emerson & Emerson have a neat, refined singing and musical act, which should have received more applause. Mayme Butler opened the bill in songs, and, as usual, scored. Tom Shaw has a single turn, his talk being the best part of his skit. The request is respectfully made of Manager Ostreicher to provide the patrons with better piano music while the motion pictures are on. For weeks and weeks we have endured the amateurish efforts of the drummer, who is a very good man at traps and drums, but who is no piano player. Why the regular piano player has to go out and take a bit of recreation at the end of each act of theater? Nowadays music with motion pictures is regarded by managers as essential. For many weeks we have refrained from sneaking out on this subject, but it is impossible to keep mum after the "music" inflicted Tuesday evening. JOHNSON AT EUSTON. In the Era, a theatrical weekly published in London, the following account of Jack Johnson's appearance at the Euston was given: Then came a hull in the storm, and other performers, among Dan Fraser, the Scotch comedian; Gertrude Tibby; in her dramatic quilt; Pauline McCarthy; in James Curew and company, in a comedy dramatic sketch, "The Westerner"; and Fred Poplar, comedian. The advent of Grant and Grant, who are also artists of color, was the signal for another of theatrical productions. Your bit ther we're wanting," shouted one malenient to the male partner of the couple, whereupon the interpreter was promptly dropped upon by the attendants and courteled. Grant and Grant were as much so on account of their taste as their ability, but nevertheless deservedly so, for they worked both hard and well. Shortly afterwards "Ng. P"gm exhibited; Both Tate, the California girl, another of Jack Johnson's oppression. Again the furore started, anxiety and hisses being intermingled with cheers from most of the people in the stalls and boxes. The management appealed for fair play. "That's what we want," came the retort. "I do not object to Johnson on account of his color," declared Miss Tate, "but of what the man is alleged on account of his color," the geller came the query, "What's he doing?" and so the acrimony went on until Miss Tate, like Miss Scott earlier in the evening had to forego giving her show. To fill the gaps thus occasioned, a number of deputy turns were then put on, being for the most part accorded a welcome. Then the Bioscope sequent darkness gave Johnson the opportunity of coming to the front of the stage box. Before the film was finished the auditorium was suddenly ablaze with electric light, and there stood Johnson, bowing majestically to his supporters and ignoring with a contemptuous save of the hand those who were the audience who were leaving the time re-entered the hall and watched the exciting scene for several minutes. Jack Johnson attempted a speech, but was effectually yelled down by the occupants of an opposite box, who, but for the timely intervention of the police, would doubtless have been subdued subsequently to some rather severe crowds. At the second performance no attempt was made to introduce either Miss Scott or Miss Tate, substitutes being found. Between the two "houses" Johnson visited the South London Music Hall, but he returned to Euston Street, where he second show, and eventually wound up his evening's itinerary by addressing the throng from the balcony of the hall, thanking his admirers for their reception and remarking that he was glad English people were so fair-minded that they did not attempt to judge a man before they had seen and tried him. IN THE WORLD OF SPORT In commenting on the refusal of the Boxing Commission to permit mixed bouts in New York City, "Hat" Masterstor, whose opinions are never tainted with facial prejudice, says in the Morning Telegraph: "Sherif Harburger is perfectly right in commenting on the article of the State Athletic Commission in unholding its rule barring mixed matches. At its regular meeting Wednesday the boxing commission considered the rescinding of the rule prohibiting white men from fighting Negroes, and O'Nell and Dixon voted to uphold the rule, while Commissioner Price voted for its revocation. The sloner Price first introduced the resolution against mixed matches there was some surprise expressed when he reversed himself. "However, Sheriff Harburger's views as expressed by himself are right and proper. Mr. Harburger doesn't understand why Negro citizens are barred from fighting white men while Chinese can be more aggressive and can become such, are permitted to do so. The Negro is entitled to the same rights under the law as the white man, and it isn't within the province of any man or set of men to make a rule that deprives him of his rights. "But as the local club managers have been heard to say, they would there in meeting in a Negro and a white man and have the boxing commission revoke "our license." That's why the promoters refuse to make such matches. While there is no law that would uphold the ruling of the boxing commission as would the revoke the license of any club that would stage a match of this kind." On the other hand, James R. Crowell who writes the "Hit or Miss" column in the Evening Telegram, looks at the decision of the commission from a different angle. He says: "A lot has been said about the boxing commission's action in forbidding mixed bouts, but no good argument has presented itself so far in favor of the commission. It is hard to have the power to forbid white men and black boxers from engaging in a contest it is just as well that it exercise that power. The boxing game has enough enemies already without trying to increase the number of bouts and city of much more extensive proportions than that which it already has to contend with. "The racial prejudice that a bout between a white and a Negro boxer incurs is detrimental to the sport. Boxing in New York has an especial appeal to the black man and it would be absurd for the men interested to hurt their own chances of reaping financial gain. That the mixed bout is not a success is no more the fault, however, of the Negro than it is of the white man. It simply arose from the fact that the best interests of the sport, without anybody being to blame. In this case the best policy would be to let well enough alone." Eniron's Note.—In this instance Mr. Crowell has missed rather than hit the bull's-eye in his effort to score a point. In one sentence he upholds the commission for forbidding mixed bouts, declaring it "absurd for men interested in the boxing game to hurt their chances of reaping financial gain," and in the next sentence he maintains that "for the best interests of the sport" the hostile policy of the commission should be kept in force. Evidently Mr. Crowell's opinions have become so commercialized he really believes that the paramount issue is the amount of money taken in a the box office. If the promoters reap a financial harvest, then the best interests of the sport are being safely guarded. The meeting of skilled boxers, irrespective of color, to determine the question as to who is superior in fistic wrestling is not to be seriously considered—if we correctly understand the writer. Williams Outpitches Sheridan. With several big league scouts looking on to determine whether he was ripe for professional baseball, Matty Sheridan, the crack pitcher of the Phillipsburg team, threw wild in the ninth inning, allowing the Lincoln Giants to score the winning run in an exciting contest Sunday at Olympic Field.
