PLAN NEW Y. M. C. A. HOME
Structure to Cost $150,000—Dr. J. E. Moorland on the Field to Take Active Part in Campaign.
Recognition of the worth of the colored citizens of New York has been accorded by the Joint Campaign Committee of the Young Women's and Young Men's Christian Association in this city in devoting $250,000 to the colored branches of those organizations from a fund of $4,000,000 which is to be raised in a whirlwind campaign of two weeks, beginning November 10. This movement, the largest of its kind in the history of the world, is under the generalship of Charles S. Ward, known as the best money-rusher for
DR J. P. MOORLAND
philanthropic purposes. Mr. Ward is secretary at the International Committee of the Young Men's Christian Association in North America. In the last few years he has raised $20,000,000 in three organizations, having a total of more than eighty building trial campaigns without a single failure. It is argued from that fact that the success of this campaign is assured at the onset.
Associated closely with Mr. Ward in this academic undertaking is Dr. J. E. Moorland, International Secretary of the Colored Men's Department of the Young Men's Christian Associations of North America. Dr. Moorland is one of the prominent men of the race.
Readers of THE ACE perhaps are aware that Dr. Moorland has raised $10,000,000 for the colored Christian associations of this continent, which is an achievement. It is not the easiest thing in the world to find a large number of persons in any community eager to give goodly amounts to benefit the colored race. This is said without any disparagement of the philanthropy of the whites. The condition simply is that thus far they have not acquired the habit of contributing spontaneously to enterprises, aimed solely at the welfare of colored persons. That they are leaning much more in that direction in these days than in former years is believed to be due in large part to the activity, tact and invasive logic of the Colored Young Men's Christian Associations' international secretary.
$100,000 for Y. W. C. A.
One hundred thousand dollars of the fund to be raised in the current campaign will be used by the Y. W. C. A. of the city of New York to provide a building for its colored branch. This is a betterment that long has been required. Miss Gertrude James, secretary of the colored branch of the Y. W. C. A., has done great work under difficulties that would have discouraged a less determined woman. Although Miss Cecil I. Taham gentle secretary for metropolitan office of the association has shown every desire to forward the aspirations of the colored branch and has given unlimited encouragement to Miss James, the colored women have been handicapped by inadequate equipment and housing to an extent that made early improvement of the condition of their branch practically imperative.
The colored women of this city are to have a Y. W. C. A. branch in Harlem that will be miles ahead of their present home. It will be fitted out with due regard to their special needs as well as to the general requirements of

DR. PARK LECTURING AT UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO Special to THE NEW YORK ACK.
CHICAGO, Ill., Oct. 28.—A course of lectures is being given at the University of Chicago this year by Dr. Robert E. Park, who has been associated with the work of Tuskegee Institute. Dr. Park has been employed as associate professor of sociology and is lecturing to the classes in sociology at the University upon "The Negro in America." During the past year Dr. Park made a tour of almost the entire South, visiting all of the Tuskegee Institute branch schools doing similar work. Those inspection, trips are being made at the request of a Northern philanthropist who is interested in Negro education. These lectures on the Negro are attracting more attention at the hands of the University students than probably any prior series, of lectures.
KNOXVILLE AFFORDS
AGREEABLE SURPRISES.
Special to THE NEW YORK ACL
KNONVILLE, Tenn., Oct. 28.—A traveler in this part of the South meets with plenty of agreeable surprises as well as some discouragements. Few people of our race in the North and West, would expect to find here in Knoxville hundreds of colored people working in the marble quarries, and not only doing rough work of getting out the marble, but doing the most fancy and skilled work, finishing up the work in the minutest detail just ready to go on the market. Your correspondent has never seen colored people by the hundreds working in marble before.
Another thing that opens the eyes of a man from the North is to see colored policemen in a city like Knoxville. It has been the privilege of the writer to see in this city mounted colored policemen riding by the side of white mounted policemen. Thus there are signs that multiply in spite of difficulties that indicate that our people are going forward and climbing up.

NEGRO'S RIGHT TO VOTE
SOON TO BE DETERMINED
Special to The New York Aug.
Washington, D. C., Oct. 20.—There are now before the United States Supreme Court several cases involving the application of the Fifteenth Amendment to the Constitution to the State laws of the South barring the issue from the North.
One of them is from Oklahoma, where the "Grandfather Clause" has been made to affect the entire State, and another is from Maryland, which raises the issues of a municipality's disfranchisement of the Negro.
On the decision of these cases depend momentous political considerations. The court's action will determine whether or not the Southern States have a right to legislate against the Negro's suffrage and whether or not the grandfather and other classes now in effect are valid.
Maryland lawyers, in presenting their brief, take the inconsistent stand that neither the Constitution of the United States nor any of its amendments gives to the Federal Government any right to prescribe the qualifications of voters in purely State or municipal elections. They insist that the Fifteenth Amendment which is relied on by the opponents of the grandfather clause applies only to Federal elections.

COLORED VOTERS WANT
METZ FOR COMPROLLER
As all party lines are being disregarded by the voters in the present municipal campaign the colored citizens are rallying to all candidates who have hereditarily evinced more than ordinary interest in the welfare of the race. Although Herman A. Metz is a candidate for Comptroller on the Democratic ticket he is being enthusiastically supported by the colored voters of New York City and Brooklyn.
Congressman Metz is regarded as one of the best friends the Negro ever had in public office. Only a few days ago on the floor of the House he stopped a scheme on foot which he described as a subterfuge to discharge, southern Negroes in the Railway Mail Service.
Congressman Metz gives prizes to colored athletic organizations year after year, has served on the Advisory Board of the Colored Orphan Asylum and has educated ambitious colored boys. It was Mr. Metz who some years ago provided the late Samuel R. Scottron, at one time a member of the Brooklyn School Board, with sufficient money to start in business, and satisfactorily settled Mr. Scottron's business when he died.

WHITE OFFICERS FOR REGIMENT IS PLANNED
TRYING TO GET TECHNICAL
Law Specifically Provides for Regiment Composed of Colored Officers and Enlisted Men.
That there is a movement on foot to assign white field officers to the colored regiment of infantry is the rumor going the rounds, and from the attitude of the State military officials credence is attached to the report by many interested in the new regiment.
Chief opposition to the organization of a colored regiment to become a part of the National Guard of this State came from white officers who were greatly worried over the "social equality" bugaboo, and it is the belief of many that if the colored citizens of the State do not show their resentment in no uncertain terms the military officials of the State of New York will see to it that the colored regiment will be under the command of white officers.
When the law was passed a few months ago authorizing the organization of a colored regiment it was understood by the legislators and the Negro citizens of the State that the personnel of the regiment would be made up of colored men from colonel down.
Although the records will show that white field officers have been appointed in this State without complying to the letter with requirements, it is reported that the Examining Board intends to demand that all applicants for appointment as field officers must serve from two to three years as commissioned officers. If this rule was strictly observed the colonel and majors of the colored regiment would be white men, as no Negroes have been given an opportunity before to serve as commissioned officers in the State militia. As a rule the Examining Board first summons the field officers for examination, but in this instance the lieutenants and the rank and file of the Provisional Resiment who have been industriously drilling for several months emphatically assert that they will not serve under white officers, as the understanding was that the regiment was to be made up of colored men from colonel down.

CLUB
voters, of the district are becoming more and more in earnest in their determination to support Royall, if their attitude and expressions at the meetings are any indication, "Rally round Royall" is the slogan. The Royall headquarters, 101 West 132d street, corner Lenox avenue, a force of workers are continuously engaged, and the district is being flooded with literature setting forth the claims of Mr. Royall, giving reasons why he should receive the support, not only of the Negro voters, but of other nationalities as well. Meetings are held every night in the rooms, besides which corps of speakers are sent forth to the various sections of the district in wagons and autos, all of whom are given earnest and hearty welcome. Monday afternoon a largely attended meeting of Baptist ministers was addressed by Mr. Royall and he was given an ovation. Many of the ministers promised their support and influence to the candidate. Monday night the use of the Adventist Church, 184 West 135th street, the

REV. James K. Humphrey, pastor, was tendered to a meeting and a large number assembled. The pastor presided, and speeches were made in Mr. Royall's interest by the Rev. W. R. Lawton, Dr. Chas, H. Roberts, Dr. E. P. Roberts, Dr. Gustavus Henderson, Fred R. Moore, W. D. Johnson of Washington, D. C., and D. E. Tobias. At the same time Capt. H. H. Blunt, with a corps of speakers, made a tour of the district in a wagon, speaking to crowds in different sections. One of the meetings was held at the corner of Broadway and 135th street, the auditors being nearly all white. The speakers were given earnest attention and liberally applauded and all the evidence points to a large vote for Royall from the white voters of the district. Another party of speakers toured the district in an auto, led by William Nicolls, and were given hearty and enthusiastic receptions.
Tuesday night a meeting of the ladies' auxiliary was held at headquarters and the women attended in large numbers. They are working constantly and are doing valiant service for Royall.
Thursday night the lycum of Salem M. E. Church, George W. Allen, president, will hold a mass meeting for Royall in place of their regular weekly program, Counselor Rufus L. Perry, Counselor J. C. Thomas, Jr., and Counselor D. Macon Webster are scheduled to speak, besides others. The church is located at 102 West 133d street, the Rev. E. A. Cullen, pastor. The Royall Campaign Literature Committee, Dr. Gustavus Henderson, chairman, has issued the following platform on which Mr. Royall is losing his appeal to the people of his district:

SYDNEY W. STERN
Judge of the Fifth District. In a recent speech in which he espoused the cause of Mr. Stern, whom he characterized as a friend of the Negro, Mr. Turner said:
"In my opinion I feel that it is the duty of all good citizens to take it upon themselves to see that men are elected to office who are worthy; when such steps have been taken there will be no need of corrupt political machines, and degrading politics will be done away with, and the man that makes pledges and promises will be buried so that there will be no resurrection. It is unless for me to say to the voters of this district that this is a progressive age, the time for the carpet bag politician is over with, and every good citizen should strive to see that there will be no coming back day for them."
I first desire to make myself thoroughly understood, as I am aware that a good many of my friends with the public will in some instance be surprised to see the stand I am taking, and no doubt come to a quick conclusion that I am in politics. I am not, and I have no desire to begin. But this is a case where I feel would be unjustifiable on my part, to allow an opportunity to escape whereby I might be of service to a friend, and besides do some good to a race of people, by coming out for a man whom I have maintained (or more than twelve years). As for his efficiency, I do not believe that he would have received the honor in getting the nomination by the Progressive Party for such high office if they did not believe him qualified.
"I shall not say more along that line but what I want to impress upon the colored voter is the day of Summer, Wendel Phillips, Garrison, John Brown and other venerable patriots has passed, and as long as we are coordinated of such fact, when we do and one who believes in a square deal, justice toward all, all man up and down, I say such man when we have opportunity to do service, whereby such service places him in the front ranks, him it is the duty of the attorney to personally the colored man. When one stops to think of the many issues pending before the Supreme Court at Washington our last resort, each and every individual black man can but sympathize with Tennessee in the case of the K. of P. Likewise with Oklahoma, Georgia and a half dozen other states who have cases there and have not been given fair play in these several states, on account of the color prejudice and narrow mindedness on the part of the Justice sitting. I call your attention to the Levy Law of this State, which to my interpretation is simply a reinforcement to the Civil Rights Bill. But unless you will do this, the cause to come in contact with this good act, it will be of no service to you unless your case is presented before a Justice who will stand for fair play.
"For Mr. Stern, my dealings with him for the past twelve years satisfy me that should he be elected no one matters not what creed they may be, behind, need not be afraid to go before him. I candidly believe That which is Ceanar's he will render unto him. He can not ask for any man; to my knowledge not going around making promises and pledges; but for one thing, and that is, if he is elected he will render justice to all. "Now, to my friends and the public, I trust that you do not mistjudge me. I am sure the majority of New York's colored citizens know of my profession, and I assure you that I am getting a fair living from it, and it would not be unfair to me, and I will not any unfair measure for the purpose of receiving, well, we might call a bribery I would not consider it any more than that, especially when I take the stand of asking my friends, as a public man, to cast their vote for him. I am asking you to elect this man, because I feel that he will be a friend to the race. Mr. Stern is a young man, and I do not feel that he will be content to remain this low life. I will be has touched the rights of pints, as 50 shares our stock is he will not roastake. I have this confidence, and words of expression is too weak, space will not permit me to retribution. The Fifth District compares the 96th street court.
"Mr. Stern is running on the Progressive ticket which takes up the third (Citizen) of the official ballot You can only cry for your own sake, and mark his name. I feel that should he be elected through the weak assistance on my part, I will have been the medium of doing some good for a downroader race.
Voters of the Twenty-first Aldermania District should not forget to vote for John M. Royall for Alderman.
Vote for Herman A. Metz for Comptroller.
Expositop Gives But Few Concrete Evidences of Negro's Advancement
Said to Have Been Borrowed From the Museum of Natural History—Some of the Creditable Exhibits.
The National Emancipation Exposition opened its doors to the public on the day scheduled Wednesday, October 22, by collecting the admission fee from all who presented themselves and then giving them "return checks," good for admission at some future time when the exposition would be ready for the public. This was necessary because, according to reports, while the doors were open, the exposition was not ready. A number of white and colored out-of-town visitors who attended and received the "return checks" were at a loss to understand this move and showed disappointment at not realizing the anticipation induced by the glowing preliminary announcements.
However, the opening exercises were held late Wednesday and Robert N. Wood, chairman of the commission, made a speech. He was supposed to welcome the people and outline the accomplishments of the commission. Instead he devoted his time to diatribes against THE NEW YORK AGE and its editor, Fred R. Moore. His coarse and out of place remarks were received in silence, however, the audience seeming to feel that Wood's position and calibre precluded more than a contemptuously silent reception of his provocative outbreak.
Exhibitors who had been invited and urged to take part in the exposition, some of whom had made sacrifices to prepare commendable exhibits, found when seeking space for their products that they would be charged for the privilege. The price ranged from $30 to $55. Some of the most important exhibitors rebelled and refused outright to stand for what they termed the exorbitant charges, and were usually given space without charge. Many of the others stood for the demand and paid the price. Although the concessions were supposed to carry all the conveniences necessary to the display of their wares many of the concessionaires experienced great difficulty in getting light for their booths or power to run their machinery. In fact, some of the booths were not lighted until Tuesday evening of this week and as late as 10 o'clock Tuesday night lights were being placed in some of the booths by the electricians.
Pictures of Negroes Hung Indiscriminately.
Pictures of prominent and near-prominent Negroes are placed upon the walls; and it is interesting to note the positions assigned to various representative men of the race. A large oil painting of Abraham Lincoln occupies the position of honor, but pictures of the Negro men seem to have been hung indiscriminately just as they were picked up. In a group of large photographs of Negro men the picture of Dr. W. A. Warfield occupies the position of honor. The picture of Dr. Booker T. Washington hangs at the extreme right in the lower row under Kelly Miller. It is said that some one called attention to the inconspicuous position occupied by the Washington picture and one of the big guns of the exposition, whose word is law, said, with a shrug of his shoulders. "That is where he belongs."
An official banquet was advertised for Monday evening, the tickets for which cost $1.75. Many of the expectant guests were unable to find the banquet hall, which was simply the regular restaurant concession, and from all accounts those who did find it fared but little better than those who did not. A minister of Jersey City who had two tickets, after a futile search, came to one of the commissioners, and informed him that since he had been unable to find the banquet he wanted to return the tickets. He was hurriedly and anxiously informed that the banquet was being served at that moment in the restaurant and to hurry right over. A present lawyer of Jersey City minister of the commissioners, han to be directed to the banquet hall. He inquired as to the table and was told to take any he found. It is said that some of the ticket holders are yet looking for the banquet.
The principal feature of the exposition is the showing of sace development by means of charts and pictures. The walls of the armory are covered with charts giving in abstract comparisons, figures showing the development of the race of fifty years. Much prominence is given to the ancient history of the Negro and very little is shown as to what is actually doing to-day. The decorations and ornamentations of the hall are of the Egyptian order. In the center of the armory is erected the Temple of Beauty, a handsome specimen of Egyptian architecture, de-

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

University Club, Fifth Ave. & 54th St. New York. My dear Mr. Brush: I am very glad to learn through you that Mr. V. Everit Mary is a candidate for the position of Superintendent of the Poor of Westchester County. I measure feet, this service could be found, and I am delighted to know that he has consented to permit the use of his name in connection with an office where it is possible to accomplish so much good by wise action.
I wish that you would say, if you think it wise, to my colored friends in Westchester County that I have known Mr. Macy for a number of years, and I know of no man who is more deeply interested in the education and success of our race than is true of Mr. Macy. His interest and activity have been of long standing. In many ways which I have not time to explain in so brief a letter, Mr. Macy has not only manifested his interest, but has been most generous in helping forward the cause of our race in many directions. I very much hope that he will be elected by a large vote. It is very rare that we have an opportunity to place a man of this type in a public office, and it will be a great mistake if he is not rewarded for his unsatisfied service by an overwhelming election.

but irons. But do it with
more, the greatest hair straight
preparation on earth. Kink-no-more
will straighten the kinkiest kind of hair.
Talk about it—a preparation that all you
have to do is apply it on the hair and
with a little combing the hair becomes
straight, not to stay for one day or one
week. Water nor nothing else will make it kink
again after it has been straightened. Kink-no-more is a wonder worker. So marvel
does it do. Its work that one can
hardly believe thou'r down eyes. It works
like magic, and is unique because there is
not another preparation in existence.
For 100 for any hair of hair the Kink-no-more will not straighten
Kink-no-more is a vegetable compound it is perfectly harmless and will not injure the scalp nor hair. But will stop it from falling out; positively more hair than skin and growth of healthy hair and keeps it soft and glossy. Remember that Kink-no-more is sold under a guarantor to do all that is claimed for it or money refunded. We will send to anyone who has been treated with 600 of Kink-no-more, enough to straighten from one to two beads of hair. When ordering send registered letter, postal money order or express money order. Liberal inducement is available. We send special terms. Enclose 2 cent stamp to reply. Agents wanted everywhere.

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

It is a horrible'condition of society when the press and pulpit of a city o
nation become the advocates and apologists of lawlessness rather tham the stert
judges and censors of it; when they nurture and encourage in their bosom:
the lawless members of society rather than spew them out and crush them
The white newspapers and pulpits of Baltimore were largely responsible for th
Jabolition of slavery by the opposition they presented to Benjamin Lundy ant
William Lloyd Garrison and the suppression of their newspaper, the Genius of
Universal Emancipation, and the imprisonment of .its editors long before John
Brown reached Larper’s Ferry or Grant cornered Lee at Appamattox. By
raking sides with the slave power, and advocating and apologising for mob
lawlessness. against those who did tut think as they did, they invited the condi-
lion which made Baltimore a camping ground for Union soldiers. They may
claim at this Jate day that that was a white man’s fight. Perhaps; a white man’s
fight over the black slave, in which the black man was the principal gainer in
the primary’ principle involved in the final results.
‘What is the fight over in Balumore and most of the Southern States now,

the white man to sell, lease or rent property to whom he will, and the right of
the black man to buy, lease or ‘rent property of whom he will, 2, The right of
the white man to vote, and to be voted fur by all citizens eligible to vote, black
and white, and the right oi the black man to vote, and to be voted for by all
citizens eligible to vote, black and white. 3. The right of all citizens, black and
white, to the equal protection of the laws, 4. The right of all citizens to equal
treatment and accommodation, tor the same money, by land or water, in all
places and by all agencies licensed and chartered for the public amusement and
accomfhodation. These rights have :heir rootages’ in American citizenship, The

the former, while the Declaration of Independence stands as the voice uf Chris-
tian American public opinion and the Constitution as amended. stand= as te
supreme law of American citizenship, The white press and pulpit of Kalumore
and the South know this very well.
What the white press and pulpit of Baltimore and the South know, those of
the whole country know. When they join or acquiesce in the segregation, dis-
franchisement and denial of civil rights and privileges to the Negro citizen they
must and do know that they are moving toward a situation, creating a moral
issue, that will finally “shake the pillars” of the nation as did the controversy

"My Friend From Kentucky," which opened at the Lafayette Theatre Monday afternoon for a two weeks' visit. J. Leubrie Hill and a large company of comedians, singers and dancers work with vim and vigor in their endeavor to please, and they furnish an evening of enjoyable entertainment. There is a large and lusty chorus which dishes out melodious offerings in a delectable manner, reminding you, at times, of the olden days, and there are at least four musical numbers in the piece which, if sung on Broadway, would be over-night hit.
But even so, "My Friend From Dixie" is not a Williams & Walker production scenically, laughingly or artistically. It is the largest colored show that has graced the boards for several seasons, and in this feature alone we have cause to be thankful. Evidently believing in the theory that in numbers there is strength, J. Leubrie Hill has been surrounded by a good-sized galaxy of entertainers. And particularly in the case of the chorus large numbers have produced a favorable effect. But—
But the success of a production does not necessarily depend on numbers. When the booking agent of a circuit advises you to give him a big production be is not thinking of numbers alone. Madam Sherry, which was such a big hit a few seasons ago, carried a little more than twenty people. But the interesting plot, the clever manner in which the book was written, the gorgeousness of scenery and costume, the humoriness of the lines and the melodiousness of the musical numbers all combined to make "Madam Sherry" a big production. It is the combination of things which wins.
"My Friend From Kentucky" has been a visitor to these parts before, but under a different name—"My Friend From Dixie." It is a pleasure to have "our friend" in our midst once more, even under an alias, as "My Friend From Kentucky" is in many ways stronger and better than "My Friend From Dixie." The costumes worn by the women are forty per cent, more attractive, there are more and prettier girls and the cast is more representative. "My Friend From Dixie" suffers in every way in comparison with "My Friend From Kentucky."
"Dear Old Dixie," sung by Sam Gaines and entire chorus in the first act, is the pronounced song hit of the show. It is one breey, exhilarating, tuneful piece and is staged with commensate skill. It is an unusually strong singing and dancing number—in fact, too strong to be the third musical offering in the first act. It could be used with good effect as the finale of one of the acts. Alice Ramsey, assisted by Will Brown and chorus, has another good song entitled "Rock Me in the Cradle of Love." Miss Ramsey handles this number well and is ably assisted by Will Brown. The chorus could afford to show less lung power in this number, "Night Time" is another stand-out song, and "At the Ball, That's All" closes the show with the entire company participating.
J. Leubrie Hill is quite versatile, and along with his versatility he is a hard, earnest worked who is deserving of encouragement. Mr. Hill is the chief langu provocator in the show, and is very conspicuous in his role of Mandy Lee. However, he shines brightest as producer, and while his book is mediocre, his songs and staging of numbers class him as a producer out of the ordinary.
As Jim Jackson Lee Julius Glenn has a comedy part only next to J. Leubrie Hill. Mr. Glenn handicaps his efforts at fun-making by using poor judgment in the selection of his costumes. Even comedians nowadays are supposed to be as true to life as possible, and with such grotesque clothes and make-up as Mr. Glenn wears it is hard to make an audience believe that a pretty girl would fall in love with him; nor would such a character cause two women to quarrel over him. Some of our best comedians appear on the stage in dress suits and make merry when their parts call for such dress. I would like to see Julius Glenn play his part in clothes like Jim Jackson Lee would wear in real life. He would be more convincing.
Exon Robinson makes a charming daughter as Miss Lucinda Langtree, but with her voice and personality she does not come up to expectations in the vocal line. She does not have enough solo work to do, and her one song, "That's the Kind of Man I Want," fails to give her an opportunity to appear in what she can do best.
Theodore L. Pankey, too, is handicapped by using a song which does not show him at his best. "You" is a ballad, but Mr. Pankey is no ballad singer. In another "Gay Lunetta" he would "clean." The female continuity accented Mr. Pankey quite a reception upon his first appearance.
There is a little girl in "My Friend From Kentucky" whose sweet soprano
voice and dancing are already causing those in the audience to point her out. She is Grace Johnson, who a few years ago was a pick in vaudeville. Give her a song suitable to the calibre of her voice and she will hit the bull's-eye every time. Jennie Scheper, as Mme. Langtree makes a fascinating grass widow, and besides showing a naturalness on the stage exhibits some stunning Parisian costumes.
Lillian Bradford is in good voice, and although her song, "Waiting All Day Long," came after the production's most cyclonic number, "Dear Old Dixie," she gathered in applause just the same. Johannis Poters appears in the third act and gives three styles of dancing. His first partner is Edna Morton, his next Daisy Brown, and then he and Ethel Williams do their clean-up turn. Some whirlwind dancer is Ethel Williams.

EMANCIPATION PAGEANT.
(SY L. H. WHITE.)
The most spectacular feature of the Emancipation Exposition now being held at the 12th Regiment armory is the pageant of Negro history, produced by a company of about three hundred and fifty men, women and children, with specially selected music by an orchestra under the direction of Augustus Granville Dill and E. E. Thompson. Three performances have been given and the last one will be given Thursday evening.
The scenes of the play are laid in ancient Africa, Egypt and America, and portray the development of the African from his heathen savagery to present day civilization. Advantage is taken of the nature of the theme to present many gorgeous color pictures and aside from the historical value of the play, which, by the way, is so involved in splendor of imagic language that it is, lost to the conception of the average mind, it afforded an opportunity for display of vocal and terpsichorean ability of a high order.
The dance of the Egyptian dancing girls was without a doubt the most attractive feature of the performance, though the little children in the last episode in a dance of joy and laughter won hearty and unrestrained applause. Two dances by Mrs. Dora Cole Norman, who also trained the girls and children in the group dances, were unusual and artistic. She danced an Egyptian dance in the third episode and in the fourth episode she titled "The Dance of the Wind and Water," emblematic of the bringing of the Negro from Africa to America as a slave. In the sixth and last episode the appearance of characters representing Frederick Douglass, John Brown, Abraham Lincoln, Sojourner Truth, and Col. Shaw aroused great enthusiasm.
The music was specially composed and selected for the perforance. Mr. Dill directed the instruments and the vocal music was in charge of Mme. Daisy Tapley. The musical numbers used were as follows:
First Episode "Prelude Primitive."
"Savage Song." "African Chant." "A Labor Song." all composed by Maj. Charles Young. U.S. Army: "Bambula." Coleridge Taylor.
Second Episode "Egyptian Chant."
Young: Egyptian march from "Aida." Vocal: sacred dance of priestesses from "Aida." Vocal.
Third Episode "Bambula." Coleridge Taylor; "Darkness Descends on Egypt's Plains." Young; "Song of the Faithful." Young; "Take Nandajn." Coleridge Taylor.
Fourth Episode "They Will Not Lend Me a Child." Coleridge Taylor; dance from "Ithelte." Coleridge Taylor; Savage (no in Imaginary Ballet, No.) Coleridge Taylor.
Sixth Episode "O Brooding" shave song "John's Brown's Body" "Take Nat and JJ" Coleridge Taylor children's literature from "O Hello" Coleridge Taylor.
The production of the pageant was superintended by Chas Burroughs, assisted by Mime Marie Stewart Jackson

CRESCENT THEATRE
Business continues good at the Crescent Theatre, and the bill the first half of the week came up to expectations. Williams & Stevens seem to be a fixture, and while their sketches are usually old and venerable, they get much comedy out of them. They did some funny work in "Dan Cham Lightning." Spooner Reilly opened the bill in which he drew some amusing pictures. He is not a bad sketch artist. Tyson & Jones are capable of having a stronger act were they to get better material. The male member does most of the talking, while his female partner has a voice which she should use more advantageously. Harry W. Stout, who was last seen in Harlem in the Dora Patterson act, does a good violin turn. His opening song could be eliminated.

In a clean and hotly contested game the Rust eleven defeated the Mississippi Industrial College on Rust campus Saturday, October 23, by the score of 20 to 0. Rust received the kick-off and by consistent work carried the ball to M. L.'s 25-yard line, losing the ball but once. Thet with a fake play, Darby carried the ball 25 yards for the first touchdown. He immediately kicked a goal. With seven and a half minutes to play, Rust began her attacks once more and soon had the ball on the 25-yard line when the first quarter ended. In the second quarter neither team made much progress, the ball being in M. L.'s territory most of the time. The first half ended with the ball on M. L.'s 30-yard line. Score Rust 6. M. L. 0.
In the third quarter Rust carried the ball to M. L.'s 50-yard line, and here they lost it on downs. M. L. tried to kick out of danger, as she could do nothing with the strong Rust offense. At this period Sherrill intercepted the kick and ran 50 yards for a touchdown. Darby again kicked goal. Score, Rust 14, M. L. 0, end of third quarter.
In the fourth quarter Rust soon had the ball in M. L.'s territory. By a long run of 30 yards Steele had the ball within 10 yards of a touchdown. Here Rust lost on four downs. M. L. fatted in four attempts and Rust had the ball on the 12-yard line. McEuen made a quarterback run and gained seven yards. With one minute to play and five yards to gain, big Proctor went through tackle for the third touchdown. Darby missed the goal from a sharp angle. The game ended here with Rust triumphant. The stars of the game were Darby at quarter, Stemms and J. M. Scott, ends, Steele and Williams backs.
MOREHOUSE, 98: CLARK UNIVERSITY, 0.
Morehouse College, formerly Atlanta Baptist College, last year's undisputed football champion of the South, played her second game of the season on the Morehouse Campus Saturday, October 25, defeating Clark University 98 to 0. In doing this Morehouse set up a new record of scores among Negro colleges, going beyond her own record of 87 to 0 made last year against Morris Brown. Morehouse's terrific play completely overwhelmed the Clark boys, scoring at will, making a forward pass or an end run or a dash through the line as suited her pleasure. Brock, the regular quarter, was back in the game. Weaver, the star left end, in the last quarter, made a run of seventy yards. It is unfair, however, to specify particular Morehouse players. The whole aggregation had struck its accustomed stride, and showed most unusual skill in interference. Morehouse's next game is at Talladaga, October 31.
Gradually the eleven is rounding into form for its great rivals, Fisk and Tuskegee. It is to be regretted that on account of the great distance between Washington and Atlanta negotiations for a game this year between this brilliant eleven and that of Howard were not successful. Each one of these schools seems to set the pace in its respective section, and until the two teams can meet the ultimate championship must always remain in doubt.

In answer to the attack on the morality and decency of the people the body of the coloured people are the only ones born without it if Bishops Gailor and Nelson could see the men who were encouraged and taken care of women of his race and of the houses of order protected by them and infested by him he would perhaps be very uncomfortable. The women of his race were the only ones hold of them. In scathing terms he admitted the selection of this service as one such our parishes had been carefully preparing for as the occasion to hurt a brutal result at the people who had been invited, were to be found in the streets, were more honorable and virtuous women, being none, than the women of the Negro race the vector declared.
The friends and members of the parish are reminded of the harvest festival and fair to treat during the week of November 10. All are invited and are assured of a welcome.

Fighters of "Jim Crowism" Want Aid. Special to TU New York Acct.
Oklahoma City, Oct. 28.—The Constitutional League of Oklahoma, with William Harrison of Oklahoma City as its leading attorney, is contesting with vigor the "Jim Crow Law" of Oklahoma. He will, the last of November December, bring before the United States Supreme Court the case of McCabe, et al. vs. The Ackerson, Topeka & Santa Fe Ry. Co., et al. It is said that the Oklahoma case is the best prepared of its kind, of any case yet put before the United States Supreme Court, and that it will now have to meet the issue squarely. There is one feature of this case that will be settled which will effect all of the Negroes in the United States and that is the Interstate Passenger Law. If the Oklahomaians succeed it will put to al "Jim Crowism" so far as interstate passengers are concerned. They will not then be subject to the intra-state passenger laws of the South.
An appeal is made to every liberty loving woman, man and friend of the Negro race in this country to make a contribution to the expense of fighting this case. Oklahoma Negroes think it is high time, if Negroes want liberty, that they be willing to pay something toward it. A few race loving men and women in the Oklahoma League, led by the Rev. W. H. Jernagin, pastor of the Mt. Carmel Baptist Church, Washington, D.C., have made great sacrifice to bring the case through lower courts to its present stage and Mr. Harrison has practically given his service for nothing. Those interested are asked to send at least 11. All contributions to be sent to Rev. W. H. Pernightt D.D. (420 Q Street, N. W., Washington, D.C., who will receive you for the same.
TWO BRANCHES
TO GET $250,000
(Sentenced from page 14)
the association work. They are to be rewarded for their unremitting endeavor by seeing the women under their charge established in a position of comfort such as they have desired these many months. In Mr. Bell the colored branch of the Y. M. C. A has a faithful secretary. Secretary Bell is recognized throughout the city as an honorable representative of his grace. He has been encouraged generously by Henry M. Orne, general secretary of the New York City Association, and he has met that encouragement with consistent effort for the betterment of his brethren that has commanded the admiration of his acquaintances.
The colored branch of the Y. M. C. A. will have a building which is to cost $150,000 in addition to the $35,000 at which its present home is valued; and which promises to be one of the most thoroughly equipped branches of the association anywhere in the country. T. J. Bell and his assistant, Elsie Elmendorf, look forward eagerly to the day when they shall be able to welcome the colored young men and boys of New York to a building calculated to stir the ambition of every member.
Raised $1,000,000 Since 1911.
The million raised by Dr. Moorland since January 1, 1911, came only in part from the whites. A third of that amount was raised among colored persons. Colored men and women in all parts of the country gave generously to the cause of the colored Y. M. C. A. and it would be singular if those in New York should be found wanting when the opportunity is given to them, as it is to-day, to do their share in providing better accommodations for Christian work among the women and men of their own race.
In this movement, with the united interests of all the pastors and churches and those outside the church, success is assured. The splendid leadership of the committee of management, with Dr. E. P. Roberts at the head of the men and Mrs. R. C. Ransom leading the women, give further certainty that the faithfulness of a host of persistent persons will be rewarded. Vigorous work is being done by G. W. Allen, vicechairman of the Colored Men's Association, and Mrs. Helen Curtis, vicechairman of the women.
The building fund campaign was announced formally to the colored persons of this city at a meeting in the Abyssinian Baptist Church, West 40th street, Sunday afternoon, under the joint auspices of the two colored branches. The Rev. A. Clayton Powell
