An Up-to-date Drug Store, Restaurant and Hotel Recently Opened In This Section of Boston.
THE LATEST VIEWPOINT
Colored People of Boston Realize That it is Necessary for Them to be Economically Strong.
Special to THE NEW YORK ACE
Boston, Mass., April 7—The influence of the National Negro Business League is being felt nowadays to a surprising degree in Boston, herefore looked upon as a none too fertile field for the development of Negro enterprises. In the past Boston has boasted of its colored doctors, colored lawyers and colored newspapers, but strong opposition has shown from certain quarters whenever the idea of opening a colored drug store, a colored restaurant or a colored ice cream parlor was suggested.
The argument advanced by some was that many white hotels, restaurants and ice cream parlors, conducted by white people, did not draw the color line, and that the opening up of similar establishments by Negroes and catering to members of the race, would mean nothing more than the ultimate abridgment of the colored man's rights in Boston.
In the South "Jim Crowism" means when a railroad provides a waiting room for colored passengers and one for the white passengers; when the colored passengers are compelled to ride in one coach and the white people in another; when separate accommodations are provided for the two races in the theaters and elsewhere. But in Boston "Jim Crowism" has meant the fostering and maintenance of business enterprises by Negroes whose patronage was mostly, if not all, colored. But, strange to say, the colored doctors, lawyers and newspapers supported in the main by Negroes were never branded as "Jim Crowism."
Crow.
But things are changing in Boston, where the colored man is coming out of his left hip and has reached the conclusion that if he is to become a potent factor in the life of Boston he must make himself economically-strong, just as other races have done and are doing. In a well known fact, and often commented on here, that, although the colored men of Boston have been fighting for manhood rights for many years, they wied less influence politically to-day than in the past, for there was a time when the race had representatives in the legislative branches of the State and local governments.
More Work for Deserving, Young People.
It is in the Roxbury district of Boston where the Negro is going into business at a rapid rate, and within the past six months many business enterprises have been started. George E. Williams, proprietor of an up-to-date restaurant located at 793 and 793A Tremont street, stated to an Ace representative that more colored men and women are being given employment by Negroes than ever before in the history of Boston. Mr. Williams employs fourteen young men and women, and several of the former are working their-way through college. These students are having a much easier time of it now than before Mr. Williams opened his restaurant, giving work to deserving members of the race. Only a short time ago they found it difficult to get employment in restaurants because of the employment of white waiters and cashiers. Although the restaurant was not opened until a few months ago, it is one of the show-places of Boston. The Bay State Pharmacy, Tremont and Northfield streets, is another new comer which Boston residents take pleasure in showing visitors. The pharmacy is owned by W. A. Smith and H. B. Blue, and both colored and white people in the vicinity are patronizing the place and its success is already assured.
The Hotel Melbourne, 805-15 Tremont street, has been doing business only a few weeks. This hostelry has forty rooms, a private dining room for ladies on the second floor, a restaurant on the first floor and it is being fitted with every modern convenience. The promoters of the hotel are Frank E. Turpin president and manager; William C.raine, assistant manager; Walter Foster treasurer, who, with Counselor Walter Foster, constitute the board of directors. Basil F. Hutchins Undertaking establishment is not a new institution but since it moved to Tremont and Camden streets Basil F. Fines is in a position to lay claim one of the most complete undertaking with establishment in Boston with channel and every con-

At the Johnson Beauty Parlors, 796 Tremont street, Mr. Johnson manufactures all the skin preparations used by Mme. Johnson, and manicures, chiroprists and a force of expert attendants are always on hand.
One of the best known and most popular tailors in Boston is W. S. Sparrow, who conducts an up-to-date tailoring establishment at 639 Tremont street. Mr. Sparrow, besides being a custom tailor, is a 'gents'-furnisher, and has a reputation for keeping the latest styles in sartorial effects.
J. H. Madison conducts an ice cream parlor at 940 Tremont street, where he also sells soda water. J. W. White is in the same business, and has periodicals for sale.
The Eureka Co-operative Bank was started years ago in the Roxbury district; and its many colored depositors have absolute confidence in the integrity of the officers of the institution. David E. Crawford is 'secretary and treasurer.
Other concerns in the district are Lucas' Restaurant, Porter's Hotel and Lavelle, the printer.
The Roxbury district is not the only section of Boston, where the colored citizen is finding it advantageous to embark in business and give employment to colored men and women, but your representative will have to make-reference to them in another article.

Special to THE NEW YORK ACK.
LOS ANGELES, Cal. April 6- R. C. Owens, the wealthy colored business man of this city, who is familiarly known as "Bob" Owens, has been highly complimented by Judge Frank R. Willis, of the Superior Court, for having rendered efficient and satisfactory services while serving as a juror.

M. dear Owens:
Not having the pleasure of meeting you personally at the banquet last evening, I desire to take this opportunity of thanking you by letter, in advance, to do my best for the very able and efficient manner in which you performed your duty as a juryman during the time you were with us.
Your services have demonstrated once more the fact that the services of a colored man are equally as faithful and as well received as any other service, and I trust that soon time to time in the future we will have a larger percentage of colored men on the jury.
Was sorry you was unable to be at the banquet as we all missed you very much. Hoping you will visit the court occasionally, as you have an opportunity, whether on the jury or in the remain, very truly yours.
(Signed) Frank R. Willis

MARYLAND SOLONS PASS
NO SEGREGATION BILLS
Special to The New York Arg
ANNAPOLIS, Md. April 8—The Frick bill, providing for "Jiw Crow" seats for colored passengers on electric railways in the cities and towns of the State, was defeated in the closing hours of the legislature Monday night. Consideration was indefinitely postponed following a plea made by Delegate Wilkinson, of Baltimore, that the proposed law would be more hurtful to whites than to Negroes. A measure making lawful segregated residences districts in the cities and towns of the State also failed of passage. No legislation was passed to lengthen the terms of colored country schools.
PLAN TO CUT SOUTH'S G. O. P. REPRESENTATION
Sub-Committee of Republican National Committee Makes Radical Report.
WOULD DROP 89 DELEGATES
Reduction Proposition To. Be Submitted To. The Republican State Conventions Throughout The Country.
Charles D. Hilles, chairman of the Republican National Committee, has made public a report of a sub-committee, which recommends that there be a decrease in the Southern and territorial representation in the next National Convention of the Republican Party.
If the proposed change should be agreed upon there would be a decrease of 89 votes in the next Republican National Convention. This loss would be sustained chiefly, by the Southern States. New York would be the only Northern State to suffer, losing two delegates.
Under the plan proposed, the number of delegates at-large from each State will remain as at present, two for each United States Senator. A radical change, however, is made in district representation. Under the present system each Congressional district sends two delegates to a National Convention. Under the plan recommended, a Congressional district will be represented by only one delegate in the next National Convention, unless the vote cast for the Republican candidate for Congress this fall should total 7,500 or higher.
Following is a table showing the proposed decrease by States:
Nebraska 8 South Carolina 7
Arkansas 1.1 Tennessee 7
Florida 4 Texas 16
Georgia 11 Virginia 8
Mississippi 8 Hawaii 1
Missouri 8 Boro Rio 2
New York 2 Philippine Islands 2
North Carolina 3)
Alaska and the District of Columbia will be entitled to two voting delegates such. The two delegates from each of the other territories—Hawaii, Porto Rico, and the Philippine Islands, will have a voice, but no vote in the convention.
The effect of the changes will be a decrease in the representation from Southern States and from territories to 10 per cent. of the total voting strength in the convention.
This plan will be submitted to the Republican State Conventions throughout the country with the request that they ratify the action of the National Committee, prior to Jan. 1, 1915.
The report was drafted by a special committee composed of Charles B. Warren of Michigan, Senator William E. Borah of Idaho, and Gov. Henry D. Hatfield of West Virginia.

MINISTERS CRITICISE
PRISON CONDITIONS
Special to The New York Age
PHILADELPHIA, Pr., April 8. The report of an investigating committee as to conditions surrounding the侵害, inmates of penal institutions in this city aroused the members of the A. M. E. Ministerial Union to strong expressions of disapproval at a meeting held Monday. Dr. F. T. M. Webster was the chairman of the committee, and he reported that conditions for prisoners were notoriously bad, and especially so for Negro prisoners. The Rev. Richard R. Wright, Jr. editor of the Christian Recorder declared that many innocent colored persons were arrested by the police. He declared that Philadelphia had the largest percentage of Negro arrests of any city in the country, and pledged himself to pay $100 toward a fund to be used in ameliorating conditions. The Rev. H. H. Cooper, on a visit to Moyamansing Prison, found a woman sick in a filthy cell without proper care. He communicated with the woman's relatives, thereby incurring the enmity of the prison officials. It was suggested by the Rev. H. Y. Arnett that the Ministerial Alliance be asked to cooperate in a movement to better conditions. Bishop Heard pledged $100 to aid the movement.

WANTS GAME KLPT CLEAN
Outside Promoters Said To Have Staged Basketball Contest Played at Manhattan Casino March 20.
Since the Howard-St. Christopher basketball game, which was played at Manhattan Casino on Friday evening, March 20, rumors have been rife that the Rev. Hutchins C. Bishop and the vestry of St. Philip's Church had not sanctioned this match, and that the church officials had not hesitated in showing deep resentment over several features in connection with the game. Additional credence has been given this report by a letter received by The Acz from the Rev. Mr. Bishop, who makes announcement that he believes in keeping basketball above sorrid influences, and gives assurance to the public that at the Howard-St. Christopher match on April 17, no gambling will be permitted.
S. PHILIPS PARISH HOUSE
215 West, 133rd Street
New York City. April 7, 1914
To the Editor of The Age:
It has been called to my attention that at the last game of basketball between Howard University team and St. Christopher team, played at the Manhattan Casino, that betting on the game was quite generally indulged in. I wish to inform the public that at the coming game, April 17, be sure to watch another game in which the St. Christopher team must take part, betting will not be tolerated.
I make this announcement, first of all, to keep the game clean and above sordid influences, and I call upon all lovers of clean sport to promote this end. Secondly, the St. Christopher team, because it is connected with the Church, cannot be a party to gambling, which is a misdemeanor before the law, and anyone who bets on the game makes himself liable to prosecution under the law.
HUTCHINS. C. BISHOP.
Factor of S. Philin's Church
It is said that the Howard-St. Christopher game on March 20 was promoted by outsiders who were in no way connected with St. Philip's Church, and that neither the church nor the St. Christopher basketball team philated financially by the large attendance. The Rev. Mr. Bishop and the members of the vestry are said to have been strongly opposed to St. Christopher appearing as a feature at a basketball game and dance during Lent; and much ill feeling has been engendered because of the incident.
When arrangements were being made for the second Howard-St. Christopher contest, the Rev. Mr. Bishop took a hand and said to it that outsiders did not assume control as before. The St. Philip's Men's Guild was to have given its dance at Manatee Casino on April 29, but the date has been changed to April 17, when the Howard-St. Christopher game and the dance will be given jointly. The advertisements now read: "Easter reception and basketball game, under the auspices of the St. Philip's Men's Guild, assisted by the St. Christopher Club," for the benefit of the St. Philip's parish home."
NEED FOR UPLIFT OF
MARYLAND NEGROES
ANNAJOLIS, Md., April 8-That the big odored population of Southern Maryland is greatly in need of uplift influences was the assertion made by the Rev. Dr. W. A. C. Hughes, superintendent of the Washington district, at the fifty-first annual session of the Washington M. E. Conference, which opened at Asbury Church last Wednesday morning.
He pointed out that the Negroes of Southern Maryland are largely of Catholic persuasion; that the denomination "Jim Crow" them at religious services, and that practically nothing is done for their moral and mental uplift. He also accoed the poor school facilities and the existence of the saloon in that section. The conference is being attended by ministers from Virginia, West Virginia, the district of Columbia and Maryland, The Rev. J, W. E. Brown, J. Garland Penn, C. C. Jacobs, W. W. Lucas and J. L. Thomas are among the prominent churchmen in attendance. Bishop Earl Cranston is presiding.
URBAN LEAGUE TO HOLD MONSTER MASS MEETING
The National League on Urban Conditions Among Negroes announces that it will hold a monster mass meeting on the interests of its work at M. Olivet Baptist Church, 159 West 53d street, on Sunday afternoon, April 19, at 3 o'clock. Dr. Booker T. Washington will speak. Maj. R.-R. Morton will preside.
The league is trying to increase its membership and to raise $2,000 among the colored people of New York City.
NEGRO PRINCIPAL FOR ATLANTIC CITY SCHOOL Special to THE NEW YORK ACK
ATLANTIC CITY, N. J., April 8—The Atlantic Avenue School, the only school in the city attended exclusively by Negro children, will have a Negro for principal, if the wishes of the Negroes of the city are considered favorably by the Board of Education.
The ministers of the city churches, members of the Ministers' Union, at their meeting last week, passed a set of resolutions requesting the board to appoint a Negro as principal of this school, and the resolutions were signed by practically all the ministers. It is reported that the board has under advertisement the carrying out of this idea.
Prof. W. Bruce Evans, former principal of the Armstrong Manual Training School, Washington, D. C., was in Atlantic City a few days ago looking over the situation, making the visit by invitation of a prominent official of the board. If the change is made, it is probable that Mr. Evans will be appointed.
This school was originally presided over by a Negro principal, but because of certain conditions the board dismissed him and appointed a white man as principal.
The resolutions were signed, by the Rev. M. P. Anderson, pastor of St. James' A. M. E. Church, as secretary; the Rev. W. M. Langford, pastor of Price Memorial A. M. E. Church; the Rev. W. H. Booker, pastor Third Baptist Church; the Rev. E. W. Clark, pastor Emmanuel Presbyterian Church, and the Rev. I. L. Martin, pastor Asbury M. E. Church. Several of the ministers preached special sermons to their congregation in the effort to generate a city wide interest in the movement.
MEMORIAL BENEFIT FOR
HOWARD ORPHAN ASYLUM
A monster memorial benefit will be given at the Majestic Theatre Brooklyn, Sunday afternoon, April 26, in aid of the Howard Orphanage and Industrial School, on which occasion the National Negro Orchestra will be the principal attraction. The concert will begin at 3:30 o'clock.
The Howard Orphanage and Industrial School is situated about forty miles out on Long Island, where 250 colored children are brought up and taught to lead useful and clean lives on a farm of 572 acres. The Rev. James H. Gordon, superintendent, died March 3 after a brief illness.
L. Hollingsworth Wood, chairman of the Board of Directors, has the following to say with reference to the needs of the institution: "The cost of all this opportunity to live makes a budget which it is a business problem to meet. Last year the expenditures were $44,839.35, and the money came. first, from the City of New York and the nearby counties; second, from donations by churches, individuals and entertainments and third, from the sale of produce from the farm.
"For the coming year the budget will be larger, for the school needs an expert in agriculture * * * * and the new schoolhouse, assembly hall and hospital are all to be built, while 250 children are to be fed, clothed, taught and helped to ability and happiness."
RICH FARMER MEETS
WITH FOUL PLAY
ALBANY. Got April 27—Alex. Billingslea, the most prominent Negro farmer in Dougherty county and a large property holder, was found with his throat cut from car to car and many stains in his body in the woods about two miles from his home, which is six miles southeast of this city, one morning last week. His horses' came home with his buggy. The rear curtain had been torn off and the buggy was covered with blood. The search for the body was not successful until late this morning. It is thought the assassin got up on the buggy from behind, stabbed Billingslea in the back through the curtain and then cut his throat on both sides. There is no clew to the assassin.

EMANUEL CHURCH BUYS PROPERTY
White Property Owners Are Now
Willing To Pay $1,000 More
Than Church Paid For Property.
Emanuel Church Takes Immediate Passession Of Property. Elaborate Exercises At Dedication Planned.
The latest addition to the Negro churches owning a home in Harlem is the First Emmanuel Church, the Rev Richard Manuel Bolden, pastor, which was organized September 14, 1913, at Crescent Hall in West 135th street. The church has purchased the three-story and basement brownstone building at 105 West 130th street, paying therefor the sum of $9,658.
The property, was purchased by the Rev. Mr. Bolden for the church from Morris Weiss, a lawyer, of 908 avenue St. John, the Bronx, who bought the place from the Value Realty Co. Samuel Cowen, a real estate broker, the Bronx, with Attorney Fredericks, negotiated the transaction for Emmanuel Church, and the law offices of Coleridge A. Burt, 35-37 Nassau street, looked after the legal end for the religious body. Title for the property was passed to the Rev. Mr. Bolden on Thursday, April 6, when the purchase price was paid over for Mr. Bolden by Counselor Hart to Mr. Weiss.
Located in what is called L. some white property owners as "pricked" zone, the purchase of this property by the Rev. Mr. Bolden is not too little interest. It is said that considerable property in this neighborhood is owned by the Astor Estate, while in this street is the home of Jordan L. Mott, wealthy iron man; the Presbyterian Church of the Puritans, and the home of the Little Sisters of the Poor.
White Committee-Active
One of the members of the white committee of thirty of the Harlem Property Owners Association declared that he had urged the Rev. Mr. Bolden not to buy the property, as it was hoped to restrict the Negroes above 151st street. This contradicts the statement recently given out by the secretary of the association that the committee did not intend to discriminate against Negroes. Persons interested in property in that block have, it is reported, expressed a willingness to pay the Emmanuel Church people $1,000 more than they paid for the property, but the positive statement is made by the pastor that the property will not be sold, but will be remodeled and occupied. In fact, architects have already looked over the building with a view to drawing plans for its adaptation as a house of worship.
The building is admirably suited for the purpose to which it will be devoted. It is located on a plot 20x99, and contains fifteen rooms. The main building, with twelve rooms, is 20x50, and there is a one-story and basement brick extension, 20x15, containing three rooms. The first, or parlor floor, has large front and back parlor, which can be thrown into one, and this will be the main assembly room, or auditorium. A hallway connects these rooms with the extension, where a room 20x15 with a large bay window, will be used as a private chapel for weddings, funerals, meetings, etc. Two large and two small rooms in the basement will be used as the Sunday school assembly and class rooms. The second and third floor contain eight rooms, which will be used by Pastor Bolden as a residence.
Counselor Coleridge A. Hart, writing to Mr. Bolden concerning the closing of the transaction, under date of April 13, said:
I congratulate you on the fact that after working over this matter for several weeks you finally secured what seems to me to be a very remarkable bargain. I am told that the house all around this piece of property are held at a very much higher figure and in fact at only time houses like this work worth $210,000. I am informed and the value of the house alone in of course much greater than you have paid for the house and lot together.
The church takes immediate possession of the property, but will not occupy it until alterations necessary are made, when it will be dedicated with elaborate exercises, in which many of the most prominent men, and women in public life will be present and participate in the program.

sate individuals, more of, less directly

"“Coincidently with the reduction of

OVERWORKING THE COLLEGE
DIPLOMA. t
It used to be that people worshiped
a college diploma as if it were-a fctich,
but. that day. lias jong. since passed.
People no longer judge ‘any-man by 2
college diploma, bist’ by, the service he
Fenders to, the community. Under the
rulinig affectiog fourth’ grade teachers in
thé colored , schools ‘at Washington
Abraam Lincoln’ could not have .re-
ceived promotion in the public schools
of the District of Columbia, - |” ~
This policy is deplorable, because ‘it
does an injustice to conbciestious, hard-
working teachers who» may- not. have
had the privilege of getting.a college
degree, but who, nevertheless, “in many
cases.are rendering much-berter-rvice
to the community than those who have
a college degree. Under such a policy
a rian like Archdeacon Russell, of Law-
renceville, Va.. who has-founded a great
school with forty or, fifty teachers and
five or six hundred Students, could not
receive -promotion in, the 3WVaskington
public schools. Archdéacgn Riissdil has
not only shown ability to,found a school
and to the executive frork, but ability to
get the money to pay the teachers their
salaries. Archdeacon’ RuFseTT~is-1idt a
j<ollége graduate, but he’gives employ
ment to many college graduates. Under,
such a policy a man Tike. Maj. RoR.

Don't say or do anything that will cause regret in after life—No one knows the pangs of this expression like the one who says it. "Ol how I wish I hadn't done or said so. No matter what the act 'or' expression was, if there is regret he will feel, feeling an ache to it that no one knows or feels but you and your Maker as no one can heal but the "Great Physician."
No matter how dear your friends and how eager they are to help you and make you happy, they can never heal the wound that has been caused by your mistakes. Dally strive to maintain a consciousness of right relations toward God and man. Begin to practice avoiding mistakes while you are young and you will be saved the unpleasantness of a batch of regrets.
What is passed is passed forever and all the worry and fretting can't wipe it away, but I advise you to start to-day and sweep away a clean space in your path and avoid mis-takes.
Don't IV.
Don't offer wine or any other interruption to ANY ONE.
Don't you know the drinking habit is one of the greatest evils on earth and often starts from the first glass of wine handed by you to a friend in a social way? That first taste perhaps led your friend to a drunken spirit so you would certainly urge you should don't you take it and don't you offer it to another.
Benjamin Franklin said: "Intemperance takes wood from the fire, meal from the barrel, flour from the tub, money from the purse, contempt from the house and clothes from the children." Do all you can to keep your friend from the saloon, the place on earth, because the saloon keeps is roiling to do all he can to keep when he gets him there. He will cash his checks, get him a job, help to get him out of trouble, and a thousand little kindness he will do to hold him there.
The saloon is an enemy of souls that have infinite worth and a destroyer of bodies that have cost so much care. Take a deep breath and always remember that the glass of wine may be the cause of untold misery to individuals, families and communities.
Don't 'V.
Don't make a practice of being seen on the streets after dark. Make it the rule of your life if out after dark to be on business and be in a hurry unless accompanied by someone. Many are the only ones connected with this. Don't, so girls, be very cautious.
Don't VI.
Don't accept any costly gifts from some one's else brother. You have no idea of the obligations that rest on you from accepting such gifts. Remember all these gifts are not given in the same spirit; they are made once in accepting such gifts and often in many an impleasantness. I hope from these half dozen don't you may be able to see how to avoid mistakes, because when mistakes are made, they are so hard to be mended and some can never be even patched up. I hope you may also see the importance of right doing and right living and perhaps save many a sigh and tour in after life.
I now commit you to God and mny
He help you to live so that your life,
Like the snow flake, will leave a mark
but not a stain.

AN EVENING IN BOSTON
BOSTON baked beans, Boston brown bread, Boston belligerency and Boston bleakness took a back seat in the Boston Back Bay District on Wednesday evening. April 1, when the Harmony Club gaye its third annual recital and dance at Copley Hall, in Clarendon street. The only discordant note wholly out of keeping with such a harmonious event was the pernicious activity of the Bostonian raindrops, which displayed a marked fondness for playing the dull and none too melodious tune. "Pitter Pat," throughout the evening.
But the raindrops met with rank disappointment in their Vardaman-like efforts to throw cold water on the Harmony Club entertainment. Although Bostonians have not yet learned that song so often sing by New Yorkers—"All Weather Looks Alike to US," the attendance on this particular occasion was not materially affected by the insistence of the rude and uncivil raindrops to go where not wanted. There are natives in Boston who believe that water should be used only in the inter-

est of hygiene, and they did not mince words in showing their disapproval of the raindrops' bold intrusion. But by 10.30 o'clock it was evident to all that, despite the inclement weather, the affair was destined to be a success from the standpoint of numbers, and Dr. "Bennie" Robinson. Harry Lewis and their associates were going about each wearing an "I should worry" expression.
The colored Americans of Boston have never been favored with a more artistic and entertaining program than that presented by the Harmony Club on the evening of April 1, when quality, instead of quantity, was strikingly in evidence. The numbers on the program seemed to fairly exude an atmosphere suggesting a high-class recital, and, judging from the audience's applause, which was given without stint and unreservedly, the work of the artists was very much appreciated.
The New York Society Orchestra, Jas. Reese Europe, conductor, and William H. Tyers, assistant conductor, stopped dispensing melodious sounds for the tangoists of the New York Four Hundred-long enough to make a hasty trip to Boston to entertain the music lovers of that city with several inspiring selections, which were rendered only as colored musicians of their calibre can.

ing the evening Leonard Jeter, celloist, and Felix Weir, violinist, played a duet, which was regarded with high favor. Messrs. Jeter and Weir are attracting no little attention in New York, and are looked upon as young musicians of considerable promise.
Albie Mitchell easily carried off vocal honors, captivating her auditors by her artistic resolution of numbers and with her winning personality Miss Mitchell is a fierce finished and versatile singer to-day than even a year ago. Her receptions at the Harmony Club, all of which are exquisitely rendered in a proof of her versatility. Her were: "Spring Has Come," "Down in the Forest," "Exhortation," "Lover's

A. B.
SAMUEL JOHNSON, Treasurer fined act in vaudeville than that of Fiddler & Shelton would be a difficult task, and their turn fitted to a nicety with the other high-class numbers on the program. These two classy entertainers have made a few changes in their sketch since last seen in New York, and the act has been strengthened, if anything, by the addition of new material. Fiddler and Shelton won many new friends and admirers by their clean-cut work.
The Harmony Club can boast of a trio which should experience no trouble getting booking in vaudeville if the young men aspired to make their living by appearing before the footlights. The trio is composed of Pat Toy, pianist; Wesley Day and Carl White, soloists. The members of the trio have good voices and give unmistakable evidence of knowing something about music. Even cultured Boston resorts to slang when speaking in complimentary terms of the Harmony Trio, the expression usually employed being "The Harmony Trio has got 'em."
The program for the evening was opened by the Dora Patterson Trio, the audience evincing a preference for the work of the violinist.

CHAS. E. WILLIAMS, Business Manager
One word about the women folks. Yes, they turned out in their gray and green just like the members of the gentle sex in New York, and Copley Hall was a riot of color. And don't think the latest styles are tardy in putting in their appearance in the Hub City. The pleated tunics, wired tunics, skirts with the bustle effect and those little French hats—the kind with the trimming underneath, are in vogue in Boston the same as in New York. But even though the styles make us smile nowadays, it cannot be denied that the women folks look good just the same. Such was the consensus of opinion of the men at the Harmony Club affair.
After the recital dancing was in order, Pat Toy's Orchestra furnishing the music, and right here the news must be broken gently that New Yorkers and Washingtonians have nothing on the Bostonian when it comes to "teddying." In view of the various and multi-various factions and sets in Boston (Mexico ranking far below Boston in this rating on factionalism) there are some who are inclined to ask if the name of the Harmony Club is not a misnomer. But the members of the club had in mind the brand of harmony which relates to musical sounds when they took unto themselves this appellation. But even so, the club is also making a determined effort to bring about harmony in other directions, and although the job is a monumental one, there are already indications that their activities are bearing fruit.
The officers and members of the Huronty Club are: J. H. Lewis Jr., president; Dr. B. E. Robinson, vice president; Sousael Johnson, treasurer; James D. Ruffin, secretary; Jane Roe Europe, musical director; Julian Smith, Carroll Lew, Carl White, Patrick Tow C. E. Williams, Isaac E. Smith, Edgar Randolph and B. I. Royster.

LAFAYETTE THEATRE
The management would have been justified in advertising the bill at the Lafayette Theatre the first half of the week as "A Big Dancefest," for every turn did a terpsichorean specialty—more or less, and the "danglingest" dancers of the lot were the two Ryan girls, whose work is of the cyclonic order. They have the breedest, sister team that has graced the boards at the Lafayette for some time.
The Ten Dark Knights were most acceptable headliners, presenting an entertainment consisting of vocal and instrumental music, dancing and a dash of comedy. This act carries its own stage setting—a plantation scene, with a staircase moving in the disgusts which is very effective. The Ten Dark Knights have worked steadily for years, but they are driven to show what they can do with their available talent for some time. White & Thatcher have been successful, while Goodman is good in showmanship. The volume found more interest in the role of the ten knights in White & Thatcher's work. They are contender of color.
J. J. ELLER.
Alice Ramsay is doing a single turn and is evidently using several new numbers, besides "Rook Me in the Cradle of Love." There is too much similarity in her dancing, and she would get more out of her cradle song were she to sing it slowly and quietly, as she did when with the Darktown Follies. Golden, & West, dancers, open the bill.
"ONE-LARGE EVENING."
"One Larger' Evening," is the title of a comedy picture just released by the Afro-American Film Company, which had its first presentation, at the Lafayette Theatre the first half of the week. The scenes are laid in the Harlem District, and the picture is, the best mechanically that Hunter C. Haynes and his associates have yet produced.
There is no denying the fact that "One Large 'Evening' contains much

humor, and doubtless will be enjoyed by all colored Americans who do not object to the ministers and other members of the race being shown in a none too compilatory light. The plot deals with a minister, deacon, doctor, grocer and Pullman porter, showing a fondness for the company of each others' wives. After considerable shooting and fussing all ends happily.
Leon Williams, Charles H. Gilpin and Marie Young acted the principal roles, assisted by John Grant, William Kelley, George Brown, Sarah Byrd and Irva Johnson.
TO BUILD, MOVIE STUDIO.
The Foster Photoplay Company has met with the favor of the motion picture trust and will begin to operate in a studio to be built on the St. Johns River, Jacksonville, Fla., in October. Wm. Foster, the directing manager of the concern, has been South all the winter endeavoring to gain an audience with the licensed manufacturers. It is reported that the great demand for colored comedies in Europe brought about the deal. The firm of Anderson & Tucker, the local bankers, has beeh authorized to secure a site for the studio in the heart of the moving picture olony.
At present the Lublin, Pathe, Kalem and other big concerns, are operating there. Florida has been voted the ideal place for making pictures, not excepting California. All the members of the Foster Company will be colored—producers, actors, camera men, dark-room men and a regular stock company. Cottages will be erected for the accommodation of the company.

Eller, champion hurdler and record holder will compete. Against him will appear Harry M. Martin, the colored speed marvel of Cincinnati, who equaled the world's record for the 60 yard low hurdle at the Colt's Athletics Club meet about a year ago. His time was 7.25 seconds, which was made by Herbert Checks of San Francisco, on February 6, 1909. It will also be recalled that Martin won the four yard dash at the Smart Set meet last year in decisive style, and it is his life. There is also another collegiate in the race with a great hurdling speed. Pollock, legend of Chicago, now a student at the Brown University, Lovell at the Irish American A. C. Brown, of Portsmouth College, and D. W. Meyts, the Military Athletic League champion, are the others who

It is said that "Cyclone" Williams, who is in the Northwest with "Rube" Foster's American Giants, will rejoin the Lincoln Giants some time in April. Nat Strong is planning to put the Royal Giants in the field this season, and is awaiting the return of Earle, who is in Hot Springs.

NEWS OF THE CHURCHES
Emanuel Church
All the services of the church were carefully attended. Palm Sunday was fittingly observed. Pastor Bolden said: "The triumphal entry of Jesus the Emmanuel into Jerusalem was a historic event more worthy of note than anyone yet been told. In the minds of both friends and foes of Jesus, this question had been raised: What think yet of Him? The thing which had been said this unrelenting day, the raising of Lazurus from the dead, on the one hand this glorious act of His caused deep devotion and idolatry; on the other hand it caused hatred and murderous designing. He knew well the plan, and purpose in His life; He studied the words of the prophets and interpreted every movement in His life as a fulminant of their sayings. The multitude went out from the city of Jerusalem to escort their King in. They went on to the procession. They strewed the road with their garments. They cut down bought from the palm trees which lined the road; and waved them in triumph escorting Him and acclaiming Him in these words, 'Hosanna to the son of David. Blessed is He that cometh in the name of the Lord. Hosanna to the highest.' We Emmanuelists see Him, honor Him and proclaim Him as our Stately, eternal King, riding Him ever changing, and motioning ever changing, ever driving and overturning, until all things shall be brought into harmony with His eternal will.
