THANKSGIVING BRINGS SADNESS Death Stops Feast Which Was To Have Taken Place at Smith Home Then Mrs. Lucy Ramsuer Dropped Dead Just as She Was Going to Bed Early Thanksgiving Morning. INVITED GUESTS MOURN Funeral Services Held Sunday Afternoon From Family Residence - Remains In- terred in Linden Hill Cemetery. There was no Smith home, at 59 W. 98th street, on Thursday of last week as had been originally planned. Queen and King instead of good cheer, reigned. The many good things which had been so tastefully prepared by Mrs. Lucy Ramsser, fifty years old, remained untouched and forgotten, for Mrs. Ramsser, the moving spirit of the proposed feast, was no more. Just as the clock struck the hour of one early Thanksgiving, mora, Mrs. Ramsser, who had been work- ing zealously all day and part of the night making extensive preparations for Thanksgiving dinner, turned out the gas in the kitchen and started for her room to take a few hours of much-needed rest. Before she got out of the kitchen she dropped unconscious to the floor. A few minutes later she was found in a dying condition by her dau- chter, Mrs. Bessie Smith, who was joined by her husband, Charles Smith. A doctor was summoned, but Mrs. Ramsser had breathed her last before medical aid could be given. The body of Mrs. Ramsser's sudden death So, instead of fittingly celebrating Thanksgiving, the day was turned in to one of sorrow and regret for the one who only a few hours before had labored with enthusiasm to prove her worth and skill in the culinary art. Mrs. Lucy Smith and other members of the family were so deeply shocked over the sudden death of Mrs. Ramsuer that all thoughts of Thanksgiving were dismissed from their minds. Mrs. Ramsuer was in unusually jovial spirits all day Wednesday and chatted pleasantly while getting ready for Thanksgiving. She looked forward to next day's dinner with joyous anticipations, and her invited guests, knowing her reputation as a good cook, looked forward to the dinner with much pleasure. Mr. and Mrs. Smith remained up until the hour with Mrs. Ramsuer, and they had not been out of the kitchen very long before she concluded to retire. When Mr. and Mrs. Smith left her she was in apparently good health and was laughing and talking. Funeral services were held over the remains Sunday from the family residence, the Rev. Mr. Bonaparte, pastor of the 99th Street Mission, officiating. The interment was in Linden Hill Cemetery. YONKERS: CHURCH CASE AND BISHOP HOOD In his letter to The Age of November 20, Bishop J. W. Hood made reference to conditions existing in the A. M. E. Zion Church at Yonkera, N. Y., and gave reasons for his failure to return the Rev. Mr. Smyers to the pastorate of that church. Chas. S. Evans, who was treasurer and assistant secretary of the trustee board under the Smyers pastorate, and who was one of the delegation to the conference with Bishop Hood, asking that minister's return as pastor, writes the following letter to The Age in reply to Bishop Hood's statements: To the Editor of The Age: After reading the extract of the annual address to the Virginia Conference by Bishop Hood, which you published recently, and seeing how unjustly the Bishop has dealt with the case, we beg to make the following point. No one who knows the facts in the case it is interesting to see how the Bishop has been careful to leave out the punitive cause of the episode which he precipitated in the New York Conference. It is strange and wonderful that Bishop Hood should feel called upon to explain and justify his godly fathers' act. After stating the law on "time limit for pastors," the Bishop said: "In the cases which have been so much discussed, the Bishop had no right to appoint the minister for a longer period, for the four years were out in each case, and neither of them was building, nor was he paying off heavy debts. It was not noticeable that the minister tried first to justify his acts on the grounds of the law. But he seemed oblivious of the fact that both cases were already out of the law. The law, according to the Bishop's statement (Continued on page 2) CIVIC LEAGUE DINNER; RECEPTION TO ROYALL The Negro Civic League, assisted by its Ladies' Auxiliary, will hold a reception and dance and tender a dinner to its president, John M.

ILLINOIS HAS TWO RIVAL COMMISSIONS Special to the NEW YORK AIR Chicago, IL, Dec. 2.—Members of the Emancipation Proclamation Commission appointed by Gov. Dunne some months ago to arrange for the holding of an exposition in 1915, are having their troubles. A new committee has come forward, which is branded an "unofficial" by Gov. Dunne's appointees. It is claimed that Beauregard E. Moseley, a colored lawyer of this city, has formed a rival organization The "unofficial" commission advertised a big entertainment and dance for Thanksgiving evening at the Seventh Regiment armory. Among the features advertised were the "tango" time danced at "the Indian" dances the members of the "official" commission were elated for only a few persons attended the dance. The members of the commission appointed by Gov. Dunne have issued a statement setting forth that the other Emancipation Commission is not the real article. The document is signed by Samuel Fallows, president; Susan Lawrence Joergen-Dahl, vice-president; George W. Ford, treasurer; A. Carey, John Dailey and R. R. Jackson. ANOTHER NEW BUILDING FOR TUSKEGEE INSTITUTE Served to Tux New York Am: Tuskegee, Ala., Dec. 2.—A lady in Philadelphia just notified the trustees of the Tuskegee Normal and Industrial Institute that she will be glad to provide the money with which to build and equip a thoroughly up-to-date laundry building, for the use of the institution. This is the building which the trustees have been asking for some months. It is the purpose of the officers of the Tuskegee Institute to use this building in doing the laundering for teachers and students, and also to use it in training men and women in the best methods of conducting a laundry. When it is considered that over 250,000 Negroes earn their living through laundering, it can be seen that this industry is a very fundamental and important one. There are openings in many sections of the South for first class laundries owned and operated by black people. It is the hope of the officers of the Tuskegee Institute to turn out people able to own and operate laundries. NEW TRUSTEES ARE ELECTED AT BETHEL At the recent election of trustees held at Bethel A.

WHITE DEPUTY SHOOTS NEGRO OFFICER IN BACK Austin, Texas, Dec. 2. — Austin is shocked over the killing of John S. Gaines, the colored policeman, by Geo. Bouth, a white deputy, on East 6th and Neches streets. He was reporting over the phone to his station. From best and most reliable reports at this writing, the shooting was unprovoked. John S. Gaines was of a respectable family and had been on the force about twelve or eighteen months. He was liked by all with the exception of a few on his beat who had been running places of prostitution until Gaines enforced the law. He had saved many Negro girls from lives of sin and degradation. Gaines was a fearless a fearlessness, and after being shot down from the rear, raised himself on one elbow and emptied his revolver at his assailant, who was fleeing across the street, one shot striking him in the left side that may prove fatal. Gaines had predicted his fate to several, but continued doing his duty. His funeral was held Sunday, November 21, from the First Baptist Church, the Revs. J. B. Pius and L. H. Richardson officiating. The mayor, chief of police and a majority of the patrolmen attended the services. Mayor Woolridge spoke in the highest terms of Officer Gaines, and said he was one of the best officers on the force, regardless of color or race. He stressed the condition existing in the district patrolled by Mr. Gaines existing East avenue, East Fifth. Sixth and Seventh street, frequented by Negroes, and said that the officer's fight on vice and crime was the cause THURSDAY, DECEMBER 4, 1913.

The Rev. L. H. Richardson spoke also and the Rev. S. J. Johnson offered an effective prayer. Mr. Gaines is survived by a widow, daughter and four brothers. Booth was released by the officer he surrendered to, and is out on a bond of $1,000. A charge of murder has been filed against him. John S. Gaines died a martyr for the moral uplift of the young Negroes of our city. BALTIMORE RUFFIANS ARE AT IT AGAIN Baltimore, Md., Dec. 3-White ruficians have again tried to destroy houses owned or occupied by colored people within the past few days. Dr. Howard E. Young, a druggist, purchased a house in the 1100 block of Myrtle avenue last Friday. The same night a number of window lights in the front of his house was broken out. Several arrests were subsequently made. The house at 203 Mosher street, occupied by colored tenants for the past several months, was stoned Monday night. Police were sent there to prevent any more outrages. It is not thought that there will be any general outbreak as the colored people here are determined to protect their homes at any cost. HARRY BURLEIGH IS PRESENTED WITH WATCH Last Saturday evening at the annual meeting of the St. George's Club the members, in recognition of his twenty years' service among them, presented Harry T. Burleigh with a solid gold Tiffany watch, inscribed "The Brother- hood of Men to Harry T. Burleigh as a Token of Esteem from His Fellow Members of St. George's Club, November 29, 1913." The rector, the Rev. Karl Reiland, in presenting the token to Mr. Burleigh, said that he felt it a great privilege to be asked to present the watch to the recipient while alive, being so much better than waiting until one has gone to show our appreciation by a wreath of flowers. GETS ANNOUNCEMENT OF WHITE HOUSE WEDDING Assistant District Attorney C. W. McDougald is the recipient of an announcement from the President and Mrs. Wilson of the marriage of their daughter Miss Jessie Woodrow, to Mr. Francis Brew Sayre.

Macon, Ga., Dec. 2.—The Negro Congregationalists of Georgia held a most notable session here. Delegates came from all parts of the State to attend the three-fold convention, that of the regular church, the missionary society and the young people. The practical type of religion fostered by the Congregationalists among the Negroes is proving successful, as well as beneficial. Reports of churches showed marked progress in numbers and influence. The best of these reports came from the First Congregational Church of Atlanta. It has 800 members, spent $8000 last year, has eight paid workers and reached 10,000 people during the year through its fourteen departments of general service. The convention took high ground on the temperance situation, and offered the benefit against the sale of near beer in Georgia. The following officers were chosen for the coming year. The Rev. J. W. Holloway. Thehes, moderator; the Rev. S. A. Paris, Marietta, assistant moderator; the Rev H. S. Barnwell, Thomasville, seribe; the Rev C. S. Haynes, Athens, register. The Rev H. H. Proctor, Atlanta, was chosen editor and manager of The Georgia Congregationalist. The next meeting will be held in Augusta. COLORED CHILDREN VISIT WHITE FAIR GROUNDS Greensboro, N. C., Dec. 2.—The managers of the Central Georgia Fair whitened the school children of both races into the fair grounds one day free. The colored children's day was on Tuesday of the fair week, the white on Friday. This feature of the fair association was an innovation. Under the direction of their teachers, the colored children of Guilford County were piloted carefully and slowly through the exhibit halls and they drank in all information given them with apparent aridity. The exhibits finished, they tasted of the midway and the lemonade, ate peanuts ravenously, rode the hobby horses and the Ferris wheel in exaltation and marveled at the unparalleled wonders that were thrown open to the public along the midway. The day was a glad one for the children and they took it quietly and orderly. Inasmuch as the Central Georgia Fair is almost equal to the State Fair, held at the capital, Raleigh, in the vicinity, the abundance and the extent of its exhibits and educational features, the colored citizens of Greensboro and Gilford County feel grateful to the directors of the white fair association for this free opportunity given their children to be educated along this line, the same as the white school children. WHITE MINISTERS IN OKLAHOMA DRAW LINE Special to THE NEW YORK AGE Guthrie, Okla., Dec. 2—The Negroes of Guthrie, even in a religious campaign of unprecedented dimensions, are to be "Jim Crowed," according to the announcement of the white ministers from their local pulpits in outlining the plans. "The Negro preachers will co-operate in this big movement," announced one of the prominent white preachers, "but, of course, in their own churches and among themselves." The Negroes have always maintained separate churches here, but this is the first public announcement of a religious "Jim Crow." would be regarded as an acceptable Xmas gift by 'male' or female, young or old. PROTEST FLORIDA LAW Special to the New York Am Little Rock, Ark., Dec. 2—At the recent session of the board of managers of the Woman's Home: Missionary Society of the Methodist Episcopal Church, held in Washington, D. C., Mrs. Hilda M. Nasmyth, superintendent of the Adeleine Smith Home for the girls of Philander Smith College, this city, who has given seventeen years to educational and social uplift work among Negroes, introduced and worked earnestly to secure the passage of a set of resolutions protesting the law recently passed in Florida prohibiting the employment of white teachers in schools for Negro children. After meeting criticism and overcoming prejudice, Mrs. Nasmyth secured the signatures of 162 women from all sections of the country, including the South, to the resolutions, and they were unanimously adopted. The following is the text of the resolutions: Whereas, In the State of Florida, on the 17th of June, 1913, by the approval of the Governor of said State, there was a desire to enacting the teaching of Negroes by unlawful, and imprisonment and fine the penalty of such an offence: Whereas, We believe that such a law is entirely out of harmony with the spirit and the interpretation of the constitution of our national government, and of the course of our country, out of tune with the advanced Christian thought and leadership, and entirely against the "Golden Rule" of the lowly Nazareth, in whose steps we assay to follow, and whose example we endeavor to emulate. Whereas, Fifty years of freedom with all that such freedom has meant in upward, tendencies and aplendid achievements, is as a drop in the bucket of racial life of any people; and, therefore, in so short a time these citizens develop leaders necessary for their uplift to proper and merited rank in national life;. Whereas, We feel that such a law will not only retard the progress of the Negro citizen but will hinder all others in their advancement also; and. Whereas, We feel that all people living under this nation's government should have an equal chance in the race of life and that it is the duty of the better favored to help the less favored. Be it Resolved, That the Woman's Home Missionary Society of the Methodist Episcopal Church in the annual meeting of the Board of Managers, representing a constituency of more than two hundred thousand members, should be sentenced in the city of Washington, District of Columbia, so sincerely deplore the enforcement of such a law, and register its protest against the enactment of said law, as unconstitutional, unjust to its citizens, unchristian in its spirit and as being entirely law and the force of conscience; Resolved. That these resolutions be printed in our annual report and a copy be sent by our secretary to His Excellency the Governor of Florida. NEGRO CATHOLICS DEDICATE NEW CHURCH Special to the New York Age St. Louis, Mo. Dec. 2—On Sunday, November 23, five thousand persons witnessed the dedication of the new home of St. Elizabeth's Catholic Church, 2212 Pine street. The building was the old Walsh manSION. Exercises were held at 3 p.m., in following a parade from the old church at Fourteenth and Gay streets, led by John J. Harris, assisted by David Bardeaux and Frank Jasmine. The parade escorted by division of Catholic Knights of America, Knights of Columbus and members of the St. Vincent de Paul Society, under F. G. Kersting, A. L. Wuennemberg and J. J. Boegemberg. Archbishop Glennon, who conducted the ceremonies, was the principal speaker. He heartily congratulated the Negro Catholics in the acquisition of such a splendid location. Mayor Kiel made an address in which he congratulated the Negroes of St. Louis in their advancement as marked by the dedication of a church upon such a favorable site, which only a few years ago was the center of one of the fashionable residence districts of St. Louis. The Rev. Father John McGuire, pastor of the church, thanked the public, and especially the Catholic organizations taking part in the dedication. St. Elizabeth's Church was established nearly forty years ago by the late Rev. Ignatius Panker, a celebrated Indian missionary. ACQUITTED OF SHOOTING 4 IN BALTIMORE RIOT Baltimore, Md., Dec. 2—George Howe, who shot four persons in the race run during the height of the segregation agitation, has been acquitted. He had been previously sentenced to two months in jail on each of three charges by a Republican police court magistrate, and prayed a jury trial in the remaining case. The three cases in which he had been convicted were acquitted and he was released on bail with Hugh M Burd—as his surrey. When tried on the case that was sent on to the grand jury, Judge Amhler, a Democrat, presiding in the criminal court, acquitted him and settled the three cases in which he had been sent to jail. Since Howe shot into the white mob there has not been a recurrence of race riots in this city. PRICE FIVE CENTS WEST REMOVAL CREATES A STIR Preaking Elder A. L. Murray Temporarily Takes Charge of Affairs Jersey City Church. Trouble at Bethel A. M. E. Church Said to Have Been Caused Over Money Matters—Charges of Members. Jersey City, N. J., Dec. 3.—The Rev. A. L. Murray, presiding elder of the Newark, N. J., District, announced on Monday night at quarterly conference at Bethel A. M. E. Church, Oak street, that by orders of Bishop Evans Tyre, he had removed the Rev. George H. West from pastoral charge of that church. The removal is said to have practically taken effect Tuesday, November 25. This action was the result of dissatisfaction existing in the church by reason of Dr. West's treatment of officers and members. It is claimed that the duties of the trustee board and its functions had been practically usurped by the pastor. Trouble had been brewing for some time, as was indicated last summer when the pastor silenced J. T. Sockum, who was president of the trustee board, president of the board of stewards, secretary of the church and member of the banking committee. The charge was made by officers and members of the church that Dr. West was car-like in his actions; that the faithful members of the trustees bore insinuation in business of the church, that he insisted on holding the monies collected in the church and paying same out, although the trustees are elected by the members for that purpose, that he allowed the house of worship to be used for political meetings; all this on his own initiative, without consulting members or officers. The dissension in the church reached such a point that Sunday night, November 16, at the conclusion of the night service, the senior choir was disbanded by the pastor, and music wasurnished on the following Sunday by the children's, or junior, choir. The disaffected element, led by some of the most prominent members of the church, prepared a memorial which was submitted to the presiding elder, requesting him to call a meeting at which Dr. Tyrce would be present. The matter would be thrashed out. This the presiding elder referred to Bishop Tyrce, and it was decided to call the meeting, but he refused to agree to attend, although the presiding elder and bishop both personally requested him to meet the body. Officera Propound Questions. In the memorial was embodied a series of questions propounded by various officers and members which it was desired the pastor should answer. T. J. Sockum asked that the pastor explain why he wanted $23.43 collected May 4, 1913, to be credited on the past year's salary, when the church had paid him in full to that time. Trustee Johnson asked why the pastor insisted on holding the trustees' money instead of turning it over to the treasurer of the trustee board, and why he reported from the pulpit Sunday, November 9, that he had received only $106 from the rally instead of more than $180. The question was also asked why the pastor arranged, without consulting the officers, to give an evangelist, the Key Lena Mason, who conducted a meeting, half of the collection, giving her $150, and retaining half the balance himself. An explanation was made to the discussion of钱 $500 by the H. Wetell, a mass meeting held in the church October 27. It is alleged by certain officers also that when the parsonage was located at 307 Forest street, corner Jackson avenue, the church gave the pastor $18 each month to pay the rent, but that the landlord, C. A. Skillman, declares the rent was only $16. John D. Smith, a neward, declared that the pastor withheld all receipts, bills, contracts and other documents of the church, instead of turning them over to the trustees, and that he wanted to trust nobody with the church's money except himself and one or two he specially favored. The charge was made that the pastor referred to the trustee as "a bunch of trustees" that he would excoriate the officers and members from the pulpit, that he spoke disparagingly of the work of some of the auxiliaries of the church, especially the Oriental Circle, of which Mrs. Hattie Daugherty was president, and the Board of Stewardesses, Mrs. Banks, president. In this connection it is reported that at the quarterly confer- On Monday night of this week musical Circle was the only auxiliary report any money on hand. Sunday School, senior and junior, and Board of Stewardesses reported that what money they had on hand was turned over to pastor. musical comedy, at Stamford Church, December 9, at 8.15 p.m. The Gaimes Children appeared at the Martins Ferry M. E. Church in a recital Friday night, which was highly appreciated by the large audience in attendance. WORCESTER, MASS. Worcester, Mash, Dec. 3.—The wedding reception of Eva Rue Noble and Stephen Fletcher Jordan, Thursday evening, November 27, at 14 Carrol street, was largely attended. The ceremony was performed by the Failing to secure the consent of the pastor to meet the officers and members in a meeting, it is said that Malcolm Tyre on Tuesday, November 25, inspected the presiding elder to lock the church doors against Dr. West, and to take charge of the church services until the affairs could be adjusted. Last Sunday the presiding elder preached in the morning and night the Rev. W. H. Burrell of Greenwich, Conn., officiated. Finding that Dr. West would be removed, members of the Board of Stewardesses, with the exception of Mrs. Ida Jackson, handed the presiding elder their resignations, which were accepted. The organist, Mme. DeVolno W. Harvey, also tendered her resignation and it was accepted. The understanding is that the Rev. Mr. West will be transferred to another charge in the New Jersey conference. He spent last Sunday with the church at Camden, N. J., taking the place of the presiding elder who had to remain in Jersey City because of the trouble at Bethel. It was rumored that Dr. West would have been sent to Long Branch but that the members of that congregation would not consent to the change. At class meeting on Tuesday night, December 2, Dr. Murray anounced that the new pastor would be the Rev. E. T. Bruce from the Philadelphia Conference. The Rev. Mr. Bruce was present and was introduced to the large congregation of members present. He will take immediate charge. Birmingham League Elects Offers. Special to The New York App. Birmingham, Ala., Nov. 25.-B. L. Windham, of the Windham Brothers Construction Company, president; Robert L. Mabry, of Mabry Brothers, daidersahers, vice-president; Edward L. Snyder, real estate dealer, secretary, and P. J. Harris, of Harris Brothers Grocery Company, treasurer. These are the new officers of the Birmingham Negro, Business Men's League elected on Thursday night in the assembly room of the Alabama Penny Savings Bank, according to the constitutional provisions. A large crowd was present at the meeting; members who had not been at previous meetings for some time. Attention was called to the fact that the Driver Administration had been so successful that the rivalry was now keen for the honor of heading the league. One year ago the office went begging. After the election Mr. Windham made a short address, praising the former administration, outlining many of the things the league would hope to accomplish and pleading for the same measure of support that had been given the former administration. "My good friend, Mr. Driver, will admit that he could not have succeeded without your co-operation," said President Windham. "I know that I may try ever so hard, but I must have your support." Dr. Pettiford begged that no feeling be injected in the affair, and urged all the members of the league to give hearty support to the Commercial Congress under advisement by the Interdenominational Ministers' Union and the Negro Business League.

For there is no one whose been sympathetic and understanding enables him really to depict the conditions of the man farthest down like the author of "Up From Sloverry," 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 middest 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.

While the brutal criminal assault made upon little Elizabeth Macco Jeter by two white fiends is to be deeply deplored and has not put the colored citizens of Greater New York in a none too pleasant frame of mind, the friendly attitude of District Attorney Whitman and his assistants and Police Commissioner Waldo and his assistants should not be overlooked. Although Zita and Koshoo are white men and their victim was a colored girl, both of the girls' assistants have been indicted and one is in custody. And although the detectives and police of the Morrissiana police station were guilty of gross neglect in their efforts to apprehend the white brutes, yet two detectives have been suspended and must stand trial on the charge of dereliction of duty. There is much satisfaction in knowing that our city officials are bent on doing their duty, regardless of whether those directly concerned are colored or white citizens. Since Rhinelander Waldo has been Police Commissioner of Greater New York he has shown a disposition to treat the colored citizens fairly at all times. Under him New York's first two colored policemen were appointed, and he has always personally interested himself in cases wherein colored citizens have been subjected to annoyance by white ruffians. The apathetic denerean of the daily press in the Jeter case is in direct contrast to that of District Attorney Whitman and Police Commissioner Waldo. How different would things have been had little Elizabeth Maceo Jeter been a white girl and her assailants colored men! So sensational would have been the daily press in reporting the assault that a temporary prejudicial sentiment would have been crystallized which would have made it unsafe for colored citiens to walk the streets in some sections of the city. With some of our dailies it seems that a premium is put on virtue only when white girls and women are concerned. THE NEGRO AND THE JOINT CAMPAIGN. One of the distinguishing features of the $4,000,000 campaign carried on in New York in aid of the Y. M. C. A. and W. W. C. A. was the intense interest and unprecedented activity displayed by the colored citizens. For the Negro people of this great metropolis to raise over $40,000 in cash and pledges within a fortnight is indeed a most praiseworthy achievement, one of which they have good cause to feel justly proud. It is not at all surprising that their elation for having made such a creditable showing is of the superlative degree Never before have the colored citizens of New York so favorably impressed their white friends. Both the press and white workers have been surprisingly prodigious in their praise of the colored workers. The New York Times, in its news columns chronicle the information that "the surprise of the total collection is furished by the Colored Committee which got $41,444." The general impression has seemingly existed among white people that the Negro invariably appears in the role of an applicant for financial assistance, but is not inclined to contribute anything to the support of a worthy THE FIGHTING SPIRIT IN THE SOUTH. The Ama has been told so often by persons in the South who know more about conditions in those States than we do that "all is merry and the goose hongi high;" that the relations between the races were never better and are growing better all of the time, and the same opinion is so insistently disseminated among the white newspapers, with the invariable advice that the races should be left alone to fight out their own affairs, that we have at times felt that there must be something wrong in our ability to gage public opinion and conditions by a close study of the newspapers of both races and by listening to such speakers as make a specialty of dealing with the race and other problems of the Southern States. It is easy to believe anything, and to shade anything the color desired, and for the purpose desired; but the truth, although falsified, remains the truth. Investigations recently made show that The Age has not been in error in any of the positions it has taken on conditions in the South. The disfranchisement and segregation movements, the gross inequality in the distribution of the school funds and the inadequacy of school accommodations and pay of teachers, the fearful disregard of sanitary measures in the districts occupied by colored people on the part of the municipal authorities, and the horrible abuses in the "Jim Crow" regulations on the railroads and steamboats and in their waiting rooms, have all conspired to produce a condition of irritation and unrest that affects the whites as well as the blacks alike. The colored people know that they are wronged, and are in a measure helpless, and the while people know that they have wronged them and show the guilt in their conduct. Far from appearing to be frightened at a white man, the average colored person in Virginia carries his resentment where the white man can see it and the white man is wise enough not to brave it, as an individual, without extreme provocation. He knows there will be trouble if he does, and the white man with a family to support is not hunting for trouble any more than is the colored man of common sense, and they are the average. This condition is shown in most marked manner in the development of business enterprises among colored people and the disposition to patronize their own concerns rather than those of the whites. This has resulted in the rapid growth of small business concerns in the towns and cities in the colored districts, some of the concerns already being strong and impressive. The two banks in Richmond are real banks, one of them having an up-to-date vault that cost ten thousand dollars. There are drug stores everywhere and plenty of doctors, all of them prospering in more or less fashion. They are bound to grow in numbers and prosperity. But the fighting spirit in the South which we would emphasize most is not of the physical but of the moral sort. The colored people are learning that they must stand together in all matters where they have a common interest. Those of Maryland led off some years ago in fighting the disfranchisement measures, and are keeping it up in fighting the segregation measures. The Virginians have caught the spirit of it, and all along the line the people are being urged by their newspapers, their preachers and in public meetings to qualify to vote and to use all of the moral influence of numbers united to keep such rights as have been left to them and to contend for those which have been taken. This is a very hopeful condition, and is maintained, as it was made, by that large and influential class of colored people, which is growing, who make up the strong, self-respecting sifting out of the mass of the people. On the other hand, the man farthest down who knows he is wronged in his civil rights and personal feelings is growing in numbers also, and in the reckless fearlessness that makes the common sort of white persons respect him and fear to offend or molest him except in large numbers; the class who are the mob-wrathers in action, who do things in large numbers they would not dare to do as individuals. This sort of both races constitute the problem which the better sort of both races should strive to make better men and citizens, in order that law and legal process should be more respected than they are, and than is good for the whole people. The true fighting spirit in the South is shown in the general awakening of the thoughtful colored people to their best interests and the necessity of standing together to obtain them by persistent argument in the newspapers and in public assemblies, and by shaping, their own conduct in such a way as to rebuke the worst white and command the respect of the best white sentiment of the community. These people are leading in church, school and business work, and they are having splendid success. All of the indications are that their numbers and influence are rapidly increasing in all of the large centers of the South. They are refuting the statement often repeated that they should accept the place in the life of their communities, which their white neighbors assign them and the estimate they place upon them, by making their own place and estimate of themselves which their white neighbors are being forced to accept as being correct. cause. The Negro no looms up and another law for the white man. It took a long and bloody war to estab- Dr. J. E. Moorland, his able assistants and the women and men who were actively engaged in collecting subscriptions for the joint fund are deserving of all the praise and econium that are being showered upon them. They worked early and late in their endeavor to reflect credit on the Colored Committee and succeeded. This financial campaign was not conducted by or in the interest of any particular denomination. All hearkened to the urgent plea to render financial assistance to the two Christian associations. The contributors can congratulate themselves upon manifesting so much concern in such a commendable project. IF HE HAD BEEN BLACK? We find the following news dispatch in a leading Southern newspaper, tucked away in the minor news of the day as it the editor would much rather have suppressed it than to give it space. Roanoke, Va., Nov. 28—Wesley H. Terry, 63 years old, a well-known citizen of Floyd Court, House, arrested October 30, charged with attempted criminal assault upon a prominent young lady of that place, appeared before Judge Moffitt at a special term of the Circuit Court today and pleased guilty to the indictment. He was sentenced to five years in the penitentiary. Terry was formerly mayor of the town and he young woman whose room he entered was he daughter of the clerk of the counts. Now, if Terry had been a black or colored person he would not have been allowed to face a judge and jury of his peers in a fair trial, nor have been allowed to stand before the judge to receive sentence as a final act of the law, or been sentenced to five years in the enitentiary. It is entirely proper that if this should have been done, as far as the legal process is concerned, and we commend it: but if Terry had been black or colored person it would have not been done in that way. Far from He would not have been allowed to see a judge and a jury of his peers or sentence of five years in the penitentiary. He would have been dispatched short order by a lot of white mourners, whom the coroner's jury could have exonerated with a verdict too common: "Died by the hands or ties unknown." But they are never known. The just Judge knows them and finds them in the outloud. That such we are sure of because we know it. Mr. Lincoln once said: "This nation must exist half slave and half free" and Dr. Washington once said: "There cannot be one law for the black man and another law for the white man.' It took a long and bloody war to establish the truth of Mr. Lincoln's statement. What will it take to establish the truth of Dr. Washington's? It will be and is largely a matter of educating public opinion, and that is always a long and tedious business. The best sentiment of both races should co-operate in the creation of this public opinion, but in the South it is not done, the prevailing rule of law and of public opinion being that "a white man can do no wrong, and a black man can do no right." Before any progress can be made in correcting existing public opinion this monstrous rule of law and public opinion will have to be crushed entirely. The Henry Clay Beatties, the Floyd Allen's and the Wesley Terrys are helping to do this, and that is one reason why THE AG takes special pains to chronicle and comment on these crimes against womanhood and the majesty of the law. It is not a malicious thing that we do, and we do it more in sorrow than anger. The theory that all white folks are alike is as false as the theory that all black and colored folks are alike. They are not. Far from it. It would be a strange thing under the sun if they were not. The effort of Southern white folks to make it appear that it is so is working out a queer situation for all the parties concerned. If he had been a black man instead of a white man! It is a shame that any such question should be possible in this country, but it is; and, as Robert Burns says, "Facts are facts, and not to be disputed." Tally and the Equity Congress. To the Editor of The Age: Please permit me space in your valuable paper to refer casually to a remark last Sunday by a chairman of a committee appointed by the Equity Commission. I will intercede and render whatever was distance possible to the Jetter family in helping to secure conviction of those charged with the crime of rape against little Elizabeth Jetter and, if possible, the mother of the deceased of duty in said crime. I take this method of answering same because of the fact that I attempted second time to answer the said crime in open session but was prevented care of the floor by members of the floor by members of points of order, questions of person, privileges and using many other tactics for the purpose in which they tried 'prevent free speech and silence is the same that because of the fact that the was one member on the committee and not seen to take him seriously or other words seemed by some to question his veracity, so the said chairman was not sure that the committer and save him his dollars. Since he has questioned my alicents the committee to the committee, I have been part of the committee. I find that I am at liberty to attack and I very frequently admit that it is true, that I do question his sincerity. Just here I buy to cite just one instance. I offer it as testimony to bear witness to the committee. Who was one among the first to subscribe a dollar to the committee, was as sincere in giving his dollar to the cause as I was when I gave my own, why did he charge the committee $7.50 for the office of acting on behalf of the committee would have gotten printed at most any press in the city for $1.25 for the first thousand and at the highest calculation, 75 cents for each additional thousand? I call upon him to explain this in open session as he as the authority he dedicated in putting me off the committee. While in conclusion, members of Equity, let me beg of you rise up as men and defend this splendid organization. I am proud of you, and of good name and morals of its members individually and collectively, when you believe they are right against the tyrannism. I say now, as I said in the previous paragraph, Congress is big enough to assist in this matter at present without resorting to mass meetings, extorting money from the public for seemingly personal aggrandement.

JOHNSON, Proprietor Ave. Baldwin SUPERIOR TO COPAIBA & INJECTION SANTAL CAPSULES MIDY RELIEVES IN 24 HOURS For the Latest Theatrical News READ THE AGE CROW THEATRES AT LOUISVILLE THE RIGHT MOVE BY LESTER A. WALTON. HERE is good news from Louis- ville! Members of the leading social and literary clubs of that city have entered into an agreement to remain away from the National and Mary Anderson theatres as long as colored theatregoers are discrimi- nated against. This is a right move in the right direction. Colored Ameri- icans of other cities who are forced to accept gallery accommodations, and who are insulted in various ways, should emulate the example set by members of the race in Louisville. A movement for self respect and better coating facilities in the theatres not only in the South but in all sections of the United States, should be inaugurated. In Louisville the colored Americans have accepted with alacrity the militum of the managers of the National Theatre—"Either take seats in the gallery or stay away," and have decided to stay away. Not only will the National Theatre be shunned as if under quarantine, but all the theatres in Louisville disposed to "Jim Crow" the colored sooth. Last week the Alpha Phi Alpha, the Alpha Omega, the Una Voce and the Cane Club, organizations which have as members the most representative young colored men of Louisville, met and passed resolutions condemning the inferior accommodations offered colored theatregoers at the National Theatre. The Mary Anderson also came in for censure. Each member pledged himself not to patronize either of these theatres and promised to individually exert his influence in keeping others away from the houses under the ban. 一 The Louisville News, which is playing a prominent part in the present fight says: There is a fight being made to encourage all people respecting colored people to the meaning of this movement that these theatres are leading. Unless it is stopped now it means more segregation along the lines of the war, bearable to self-respecting men and women. There is no public demand for such action—it is the theatre developing things. If the Mary Anderson had been fought years ago, the National would not have attempted it. Quite true. The onrush of these determined unprincipled "Jim Crowists" can be only effectively checked by a stiff, unyielding opposition. It is folly to insult idly by and sumbit to insult after insult, hoping that those who would humilize and belittle will sooner or later become so deeply moved by the Christian spirit as to become repentant and cordially greet you as a friend and brother. This sort of change of heart reads well in fiction, but there exists very little genuine Christianity among those who urge that our women folks be subjected to uncalled for indignities, not because they are illiterate and are obnoxious in their deportment, but because of the color of their skin. It is often the case that when members of the race become highly incensed and take exceptions to acts of "Jim Crowism" and the like, their anger reaches such a white heat in the beginning that long before the time when a forceful manifestation of opposition is nested, the force of their heated indignation has been spent. In Louisville the colored citizens are expected to evince a consistency of purpose, undaunted courage and an unfailing display of animosity in this particular instance, delibly imprinting on the minds of the theatre managers of that city who believe in "Jim Crowism" that they are not of the kind that easily forgives and forgets. Were it possible to deal with the advocates of segregation by appealing to their sense of justice and with sincere hearts, brimful of brotherly love how great and glorious it would be? But color prejudice is a cruel affliction which robs the victim of all sense of right, and makes one insensible to any friendly overtures of peace and good will. Such acts are usually mistaken for cowardice and humility. Although managers of theatres may not openely admit it, the downright refusal of theatrogers to sit in the gallery of houses in cities possessing a large population would bring about a marked change in the receipts and occasion no little excitement in the box office. The ambition of the manager is to play to capacity. Then he is making money for his employers. Why should the colored people of Louisville and elsewhere enrich those who regard them just a little higher than cattle? It is reported that speeches were made last week at the Ruhy and Olio theatres and the speakers urged the colored citizens of Louisville to remain away from the galleries of the "Jim Crow" theatres and patronize the houses conducted by colored men. It is said that these arguments were enthusiastically received. "Why should I go to a white theatre, pay the same money as other people and then be entrusted to the gallery because I am unfit (?) to enjoy the same accommodations as other people?" one speaker is reported as eclaiming; while another is quoted as having said: "I am a human being; I want amusement as much as another man, but I will never prostitute my self respect or humiliate myself by going to a theatre that says I can only go in the gallery because I am a Negro." These peakers expressed the sentiments of the majority of Louisville's colored amusement lovers. A reader of The Age writes from Philadelphia: Your article in last week's Age on the adaptability of colored men investing in colored theaters is timely. I wish I were able to get into this business myself. That means I have to invest in future. The opening here is particularly good. I am really surprised that the white people have not seen it. There is a little timidity on their part about investing in the colored people where the colored man has to manage. They will invest only in subcars for the blacks. That's different. Moving picture places are going up daily here according to the financial data, not them hold out the more financial inducements that a place of the first clash on South street does. White men have no hesitancy in investing their money in saloons for colored people, for thirst emporiums have always been a paying venture. The opening of theatres for colored people is a new business proposition which has not yet attracted the attention of many white promoters. Those engaged in building motion picture theatres are too busy opening houses of amusement for white people. But if the colored men with money continue to wait for white promoters to come along and build theatres in the various cities for colored people they shall have their ambition gratified. Then, as in the past, the colored man will be on the outside looking in, and complaining about not having a chance in life. 11 CHANGE AT CRESCENT Monday the Crescent Theatre changed management, Messrs. Henry and Joe Martinson and Henry Ostreicher disposing of their interest in the house to Morris Fleisher. Mr. Fleisher will be assisted in running the affairs of the Crescent by Harry Olsham, who has been actively associated with motion picture theatres for several years. There will be no change of policy. Peat & Hayes carried off honors the first half of the week. It has been quite some time since this team played in Harlem, and their act is stronger and their work more even. Miss Hayes knows how to put over a song with telling effect and Peat is active at all times. They have a good finish. Laura Moss is doing a single turn which shows her to 'better' advantage than when she was last at the Crescent. She sings three songs. Lillian Cahn opened the bill, appearing as a soloist on brass instruments. Jordan & Jones, dancers, are hard workers who should go right into their dancing specialty at the beginning, for they cannot sing. LAFAYETTE THEATRE. Beginning Monday, December 8, the management of the Lafayette Theatre will inaugure the policy of only three matinees a week, on Mondays, Thursdays and Saturdays, with matinee prices of 15 and 25 cents, and evening prices of 25, 35, 50 and 75 cents. J. Leubrie Hill and the Darktown Follies, presenting "My Friend From Kentucky," now playing that house, will be held over for a limited engagement, thus giving the management a strong attraction with which to try out the new policy. Mr. Hill and his company are playing the second week of a return engagement: at the Lafayette and are giving the people a much smoother, performance man at appearing in its singing, the large and sweet-voiced chorus working with certainty and assurance, producing an ensemble that is delightful to the ear. Then, too, the players have speeded up in their work and there is no drag or hesitation. Theo. L. Pankey in his song, "You," is a favorite and has evidently taken heed of friendly criticism, for he gives understandable interpretation and sympathetic reading to score and lyrics. He was in excellent voice Tuesday night. Alice Ramsey continues to make a hit with her song, "Rock Me in the Cradle of Love," and many a fellow in the audience would willingly change places with Will Brown, who, as "Bill Simmons," is in turn given excellent support by the chorus in his song, "The Man of the Hour." Anna Cook Pankey is a recent acquisition to the company, and her beautiful voice adds greatly to the effectiveness of the chorus. An effective hit is her singing from the upper balcony in the front of the house in the first act, in the "Night Time Is the Best Time to Make Love" number song by the group of country lads and lassies. Mrs. Pankey has a solo, "Waiting All the Time," which, as she songs it, is a gem. The dancing is a "stand out" feature and Johnni. Peters, and the three dancing girls, Ethel Williams, Daisy Brown and Edna Morton, are the pre-eminent attraction. Johnni. Leiburth.

Phone 5226 Bufford cc521 WHO IS SOUTHERN CHAMPION? "Who is the champion football eleven of the South?" This question is agitating three southern colleges—Fisk, Tuskegee and Morehouse, formerly Atlanta Baptist College. Fisk contends it should be awarded the blue ribbon, and claims championship honors on technical grounds. But Tuskegee, in particular, does not agree with Fisk in its contention. Here are the facts: Morehouse and Tuskegee battles to a 0-0 score. Then Fisk defeated Morehouse 26 to 9. However, on Thanksgiving Tuskegee HOWARD. 0; LINCOLN. 0. Howard and Lincoln met in their annual battle. Thanksgiving on Howard University campus before 3,000 enthusiastic spectators and battled to a tie, neither eleven scoring a point. When the warriors representing these two representative colleges finished play the result stood: Howard, o; Lincoln, o. Lincoln showed up stronger in several departments of the game, this being particularly true, in executing the forward pass. In the last period it looked as if Lincoln would make a touchdown, but Howard at critical moments opportunely withstood the advances of the enemy. Hilton kicked off to Brice on Howards' 20-yard line, and the ball was advanced eight yards. The Howard backfield got off here beautiful runs of 15, 20, 23 and 40 yards. Lincoln could not penetrate the interference, and Brice and Merchant dodged through large holes. The last attempt of Brice brought the ball to Lincoln's 20-yard line. A forward pass back of the goal line failed. The Orange and Blue was given the ball on her 20-yard line, from which place it was soon kicked out of danger. After an exchange of punts Wheaton and Merchant passed the ball yard line. The sturdy knees of Lincoln were sent against the line, but could not make an impression. Forced to punt, Howard received the ball on her 35-yard line and quickly made two first downs. Brice carrying the ball. At the end of 15 minutes of play it was Howard's ball on her opponents' 25-yard line. When play was resumed Howard could not gain, and lost the ball on downs. Wheaton kicked to Howard's 35-yard line, but returned 15 yards. In short rushes, Merchant, Brice and Brown carried the ball behind splendid interference to Lincoln's 15-yard line. Lincoln was penalized five yards for offside. Her goal threatened, the Penn team-proved impregnable and gained possession of the ball on downs on his eighth pass, which Gilmore blocked. Lincoln was penalized 15 yards for illegal use of hands and the game ended Lincoln's ball, first down on Howard's 20-yard line. Howard had four chances to score and each time lost the opportunity by borrowing the ball from pass. Lincoln had, wrongly, failed for the team's success. In all, Howard tried 12 forward passes, none of which was successful. On the other hand, Lincoln made four of her ten tries. Lincoln suffered the loss of 90 yards in nine penalties; Howard was penalized four times for a distance of 50 yards. Toward the end of the game the Howard quarter was injured and had to be carried from the field. The line-up follows: Lincoln. Position. Howard. Anderson. L. E. Gilmore. Hilton. L. T. Daudell.

I. second team on Saturday, November 21, by a score of 14 to 0. Bennett, Defeats A. and M. In a game which abounded in heated arguments the Agricultural and Mechanical College went down in defeat on Thanksgiving day at Cone Park, Greensboro, N. C., at the hands of Bennett College by a score of 20 to 6. The game was called promptly at 3 o'clock, and at the end of the first half the score stood 13 to 6. Although defeated, the A. and M. team played a fine game of football. Time was called in one of the quarters when the A. and M. team was on the five-yard line. The backfields of both teams played a good game, and it appeared to be only a question of which team had the ball as to who would score. The game was attended by a large and enthusiastic crowd of students from both colleges. The line-up follows: It is said that a board of arbitration, headed by Dr. Booker T.

YONKERS CHURCH CASE AND BISHOP HOOD (Continued from page 1.) ment, is that a bishop "shall allow a preacher to remain in charge four consecutive years, provided in his judgment it is best, but no longer, unless he is building a church or parsonage, by putting off some heavy church debt. He then should longer at his discretion." Both of the preachers had stayed over the limited time. One had stayed four and a half years over time. We take it to be true when he says, "neither of them was building nor paying off heavy debts." The Bishop took the cases out when he then allowed them to remain longer in charge when he did so that they were not building or paying off heavy debts. Why did he continue, year after year, contrary to the law, to reappoint these ministers, if, as he claims, they were not living up to the requisitions? Why is he just now championing and upholding a law which he so long violated or abused? Why did he be placed this law into his pointment four years ago? Where was his conscience then? Shall we say it was醉 or眠? Or was it openly violated? The Bishop tells the Conference that the cases were still within the law, that that which seemed to be an infringement of the law was no infringement at all, because the law gave him the discretion of continuing the ministers longer than four years, though they were not building or paying off debt. What a remarkable statement can be that the Bishop himself does not know the law" cording to the Bishop's own statement of the law, he had no such discretionary power in the cases in question. The law specifically says that a minister shall remain "Four consecutive years and no longer"—the Bishop's judgment to the contrary notwithstanding—"unless he is building a church or parsonage, or paying off heavy debt". Building a church or parsonage, or paying off heavy debt, then, is the essential element, under the law, in lodging discretionary power in the Bishop beyond a period of four years. Clearly, such discretionary power in the cases in question, for, as he declares, neither of the ministers was engaged in such a work. Where, therefore, did the Bishop get the discretionary power of which he so flaunting boasts? The Bishop lays great stress on the statement that he was asked to "violate his conscience." Now, your correspondent was the treasurer and assistant secretary of the trustee board of one of the churches in question and was the chief speaker for the six trustees out of nine who waited on the Bishop and pointed out the necessity of one of the churches in question. We were not acquitted by any such sinning or mean causes as he gives. We work as conscientious in our demands as the Bishop says he was in his refusal. Then, what if he was asked to go against what he is pleased to call his conscience? Though a bishop he is human like other men. The fact that he is a bishop does not in itself make his conscience greater. It is only the perpetual schooling and consecrating of the conscience to the service of All Mighty and All God, to the greatest number of people—that lifts one man's conscience above another man's and gives it superiority. David might have claimed that his conscience prompted him when he said "All men are liars." But later on, after a prayerful consideration, he retracted the statement. No one, not even Bishop Hood, will doubt that old Elijah thought he was speaking out of his conscience when he told God that they had killed all His (God's) prophets but himself. Buoyed with conscientious as this old prophet was, God told him that he was absolutely wrong, for there were four thousand who had never bowed their knees to Baal. Having, as he considered, justified his acts on the grounds 'of the law, and the discretionary power lodged in him, Bishop Hood next proceeded to draw the following conclusion: "There was nothing on which that portion of the members who wanted the pastor for a longer period could base their plan." Now, either the Bishop's memory is falling or he is wantonly withholding the facts. He knows very well all the facts presented to him for the return of our pastor—responses which he said he would consider. Now that the Bishop has carefully avoided the facts and has held up to public ridicule as more jabbers and irresponsible people, we will refresh his memory as to one or two of these facts. Perhaps the Bishop's conscience will help him recall a conversation subsequent to the annual conference in New York in 1912, in which he said another thing: the church is incapacitated and a new church built." When told that it was next to impossible to do either with the trustees board as it then stood, he said, "change the trustees board." When he was then told that this could possible be done, but that it would almost disrupt the church, he again said, "I want it done. I want you to build a church." In influence to this effect the pastor and most of the members set themselves to the task of carrying out the churchly and difficult, but we succeeded getting both members put through the trustees board, a lawyer secured, records of the property searched and the papers of incorporation were being prepared when the last conference convened, and the change was effected. While the Bishop did not say in exact words that our pastor would remain until the work was accomplished it was the understanding. He had said so by intimation and by action. This was one of the grounds of our centenion for the return of our pastor, since the work was but half finished, and since the members asking for his removal were those who opposed the incorporation and the building of a new church. There were other and immense accomplishment in expedition and military work by which he was held up by the enemy. While the military will be defeated and why he should work in favor of the battle, to hold up up before the public or more important speeches is one of the insurmountable challenges. Again, it is not the sudden and unexpected removal of our pastor that extraged our name of justice, but it was the mean, stamily and undesirable nature of our pastor. His Bishop Hood may plead his conscience all he wants, but all who are acquainted with the facts know it was the result of a conspiracy that so suddenly removed our pastor while he was busy carrying our pastor to the church. The fact that compilers were stamily digging the foundation from under his feet. What is more, the majority of the officers and members of the church together with the quarterly conference asked that the pastor be returned to complete the work in hand. This alone was an element in better unity of the church. The pastor raise all the monies for the support of the church, including the bishop. Then ought not their reasonable wishes be respected when there was no pressing need for ignoring them? Taxation without representation is tyranny whether it be in church or state. The unreasonable domination of the people, who are bearing the "burden and heat of the day" will not long continue. The people come when the pleasures sense of justice will not allow good and just men outraged and killed, or even sold into Egypt for a mass of potsage. CHARLES S. EVANS. Yonkers, N. Y.
