COURT HOLDS IT UNLAWFUL TO DRAW COLOR LINE IN SALOONS VOL. XXVII No. 30. COURT HOLDS IT DRAW COLOR I New York Supre Decision of M NEGRO WINS SUIT A Saloon Is a Place of Accom- modation Within the Meaning of the Law and There Can Be No Discrimination. OVERCHARGED FOR A DRINK Saloonkeeper Risinger Charged Aldwin C. Babb Fifty Cents for One Drink because He Was a Colored Man. A saloon is a place of public accommodation within the purview of the law according to, a decision handed down April 16 by the New York Supreme Court. Appellate Term, Justice Bijur, Lehman and Page atting, which affirmed the opinion of Justice Spiegelberg of the Municipal Court of Part I, rendered October 27, 1913, in the case of Aldwin C. Babb against Ralph Elsinger. Elsinger runs a saloon at 112 East 23rd street, and on May 17, 1913, Babb, a Negro, in company with two white men, went into Elsinger's saloon and ordered a drink. He was charged 50 cents for it and informed that the charge was made because he was colored and the saloon did not serve colored people. Engaging the services of Samuel Schartzberg, counselor-at-law, 29 Broadway, Babb brought suit against Elsinger because the civil Rights Law was in effect, at that time, and which reads as follows: All persons within the jurisdiction of this State shall be entitled to the full and equal accommodation advantages, privileges and privileges, housing houses, bath houses, barber shops, theatres, music halls, public conversances on land and water, and all other places of public accommodation or amusement, subscriptions established by law and applications alike to all citizens. Jury Gave Babba $100 Verdict. The case was tried 'October 8, 1913, before Justice Spiegelberg, in the Municipal Court of the City of New York, Seventh District. Part 11. before a jury and resulted in a verdict by the jury in favor of Habib for the sum of $1,000. The verdict aside upon the usual grounds, including the conflation that a saloon was not a place of public accommodation within the preview of the statute. The trial justice denied the motion to set aside the verdict, but reserved decision to adjudicate the designation of a saloon as a place of public accommodation. On October 17, 1913, briefs were submitted by the attorneys and on October 27 Justice Spiegelberg rendered his opinion denying the defendant's motion, and judgment was entered against Eliaeus and Habib according to verdict of the jury. serving his opinion justice he said he was simply supported by the only point upon that reserved decision was called within the purge stature. A saloon is not among immediately occupied places, nor more within the definition of liver. The terms 'lim' and used anxiously. The distance of a hotel and inn is distance of a hotel and inn is distance to food and drink. In a room and taking house food is thought the Thrilling of drinks, spirits or otherwise, is not perhaps excluded. The word 'saloon' in the case of a place where intoxicating liquors are sold, and consumed is only when origin and is used as such in the use of the word 'saloon' instead of 'bar or drinking bar' has become general. Legislature Had in Mind Saloons. lie' applies to all places to which the general public is invited as distinguished from private places; but public in the sense as 'used in' this and other statutes means 'those places in which the public has an interest as affecting the safety, health, morals and welfare of the community, and it is for that legislative independence with such places he has held'. It is known that hotels and restaurants usually contain saloons or drinking bars. If, therefore, the contention of the learned counsel for the defendant is correct, we would be confronted with the anomalous situation that a proprietor of a saloon may discriminate against a citizen, so long as it is detached from the public comes within the prohibition of the statute if the saloon is located in a restaurant. "I have thus far assumed that the place occupied by the defendant was a saloon. The complaint, however, refers to it as a saloon and restaurant, and the allegations to that effect are admitted by the defendant. Of course, if the saloon conducted by the defendant was a portion of a restaurant, it admits of no doubt that the defendant violated the terms of the motion to set aside the verdict and for a new trial is denied and judgment will be entered on the verdict of the jury." Counsel for Elsinger appealed the decision of Justice Spiegelberg to the New York Supreme Court, Appellate Term, and the case-case up for hearing at the January, 1914, Term. Argument was heard January 6 when Counsel Samuel Schartzberg submitted an exhaustive and able brief in support of his case. The Mackenzie attorneys Bjur, Lehman and Page took the case under advisement, and on April 16 handed down their unanimous opinion confirming the verdict of the lower court.

POST LENTEN CONCERT AN ARTISTIC SUCCESS Counter attractions had a tendency to affect the attendance of the Post-Lenten Concert and Assembly, given Friday evening, April 17, at the New Star Casino, but the concert was a big success from an artistic signpost. Those who were fortunate enough to be present enjoyed one of the best musical entertainments presented in New York for some time. Chief interest was centered in the appearance of the Mendelssohn Male Chorus of Philadelphia, an organization of fifteen of the finest musicians in direction of Stanley C. Gilbert.

He was at the policeman's action, which they attribute to personal animus, as Berry has been attending furnaces in that vicinity for five years. NEGRO BIG TAXPAYER IN SOUTH CAROLINA 96,000 COLORED FARMERS The Columbia "State" Shows That Race in South Carolina Pays for the Education of Negroes. COLUMBIA S. C., April 21—Negroes in South Carolina pay taxes on farm property worth more than $22,000,000, according to the Columbia State, which, in an editorial on "Exploding a Prevalent Fallacy," says: "While one does not hear it openly expressed often, the fear that a compulsory school attendance law, would impose an additional tax burden on the white people for the benefit of the black people, would obstruct its passage. Politicians have long been in the habit of saying on the stump that the whites are heavily taxing themselves for Negro education and most people have come to believe the truth is that the Negroes in South Carolina very nearly pay for all the schooling they are allowed to have. "The Negroes pay at least half the aggregate of the poll taxes and that half would amount to $18,000 a year and that amount less to the doz tax and that amount less to $145,000—or $200,000 for the Negroes." "From dispensary profits the schools derived last year $15,600 and most of the dispensaries were in counties where the Negroes pay at least three-fifths, or about $85,000." "The Negroes pay taxes on farm property worth, according to the census this year, 910, more than $22,000,000 of its actual value and the estimate be that, in general, the same amounts are raised by the constitutional three-mill tax and the special school taxes, we find that the Negroes contribute annually for the support of the schools." "If we suppose that city and city real estate-owned by Negroes is worth one-third as much as the farms—the similar rate, they pay school taxes on it amounting to about $16,000." Pay $300,000 in Taxes in South Carolina. The foregoing sums aggregate $298,000. "Additionally, the Negroes pay some taxes on personal property, such as wacons, bugles and live stock, they own a little stock in banks, mills and other corporations, and from them they pay taxes on the schools primarily get $6,000 or $9,000 a year. It is within conservative bounds to say that the Negroes pay in one or another form of taxes each year about $300,000. The recent multiple dispensers should make the Negro contribution considerably larger in 1914. "The total public expenditure for Negro education in South Carolina last year was about $62,000. Clemson College, obligated to its students of its fortified tax tax that the farmers pay, and it amounts, in total numbers, to $260,000 a year. Of 175,000 farmers in the State, $6,000 are Negroes. It should be noted, in most cases, the tax falls on the tenant as well as the land owner. The Negroes probably pay one fourth (possibly a third) of the Clemson College farmer tax, or $250,000. They pay for education in the State $750,000 a year, which is more returned to them. "The old tab told by signant and patent scholar is that the white population for the education of Negroes is not true. The white people are paying school taxes for the education of their own children, and if they are opposed to a compulsory school lay in a county they want to pay for the schooling of an increased number of children of their own race. Whether we vote for or against the compulsory school lay in a county we do not decide ourselves. The Negro in South Carolina is paying for pretty much all he gets."

The present principal of the school is a white woman—Miss Morse—who has been in charge of the building since the last school term, when the principal—at that time Mr. Howard Day, colored—was dismissed on account of some feeling and disruption that arose in the school between Day and a few of the teachers of the building.

Franeis, who left here a sago and went to Texas, writes a letter to the Illinois Idaho camp of April 6, from San Pedro, Mexico, camp of the Constitutional army, jp which he states that he is a colonel in the eighth general division.

Last year he joined the Constitutionalists and was given the rank of lieutenant. He has been in seventeen battles was prominent co-captain of the siege of Torreon, in which his troops were engaged.

WAS NOT CONVICTED FOR KISSING WHITE WOMAN Special to The New York Acr. Los Angeles, Cal., April 20.—A good many news items have appeared in the Eastern papers from time to time stating that a judge in this city latterly sent an imprisonment because he kissed a white woman. Such a statement misrepresents the facts. The judge who presided at the trial of this colored man was one of the fairest and best men on the bench. The jury that convicted him had on it, one of the leading colored men of Los Angeles. The colored man was not convicted for merely kissing a white woman—that was a mere incident in the trial he was convicted of being guilty, of a series of inhuman and unjustified crimes against women not only white but colored. And everyone who knew the facts stated that the sentence was merely justified. In consequence it is to be added that a region away from the real scene that the man can omitted the insult be given to a public MAN V VISITORS AT TUSKEGEE INSTITUTE, special to the NEW YORK AGE.

Washington 1500 Persons Attend Meeting at Mt. Olivet Baptist Church in Interest of National League on Urban Conditions. Judge Crain of the Court of Appeals, Prof. Hayes, member of the Riecke Jones Deliver Advisor. Dr. Booker T. Washington was the principal speaker at the mass meeting of the National League on Urban Conditions Among Negroes, held Sunday afternoon at Mt. Olivet Baptist Church, 159 to 101 West 53rd Street. When the distinguished Tuskegeean was introduced by New York State's Hampton Institute, who presented fully fifteen hundred persons were present and standing, room was at a premium. Dr. Washington was given a hearty welcome when introduced. He said in part: 'I am glad to be here this afternoon, because I believe heart and soul is the object of this organization. I believe morality heart and soul and soul that sit at the heart. As that has said, there are at least one hundred thousand members of our race here in New York City. As your published literature so well emphasizes, it is not the problem of finding food, clothing and shelter for them, but the problem of helping them to adjust themselves to new conditions under which they need to survive. This itself is itself in food, clothing and shelter in a way that few have ever done. The Negro is seldom found in the bread line; and so the problem is simply one of helping those of our people who come into this section to adjust themselves to the new conditions under which they need to survive. A little patient with a little patient with our race while we are trying to readjust ourselves to this new and often complicated life. "Unfortunately a very large proportion of our young people, and especially our young men who come into contact with the life of the white man in the North, do not injure the white man in his work. When the white man is busy, engrossed in his work, in the factory or in other environments, the Negroeseldm Couches that white man. It is after his working hours are ended, when the white man is sitting back and is easy to hit. Negroeseldm couches contact him. This organization is meant to teach our young people and it is doing it magnificently. Bökregation In Wrong 'Now we discuss gratification my friends, and great deal it is wrong. Every kind and character of it is wrong. It is all wrong. but there is a kind of segregation which, in a city like New York, you can blot out, and so in an future we are acting, black men and black women, selling goods as well as section of New York, black men and black women. Now I advance no drawing of the color line where it can be avoided, but one of the money that we are spending on effect, in legitimate ways among our people. Right here in New York we could have at least twelve first class dry goods stores, nineteen or twenty grocery stores, five or thirty millinery stores, a good hospital in New York with no string tied to it. Negro doctors and Negro surgeons can exhibit their skill. I want to see our people everywhere use an organization like this. You are doing it magnificently. Use it to advertise our opportunities. Advertise our successes as a race more and our failures as a race less. It does not, man engaged in business, advertise his troubles too much and it does not pay a race. It does not pay to advertise your troubles too much. You know what the Bible says about success: 'To that that hath shall be given.' "All this does not mean and should not mean that we should shout our eyes against the wrongs, against the injustices and attacks perpetrated by race, either in our own country. There are instances in the history of a race's development when every race has the right and duty, in no uncertain manner, to cry out against wrong. But we should member, with it all, and through it, that a race has the right to analyze and by its ability to make progress in constructive and creative directions, and our race is measured by that." Judge Crain Interested in the Negro. Judge T. C. T. Crain, of the Court of General Sessions, said in parts: "I am deeply interested in every race in New-York City. He who would be deeply interested in the welfare, of any race in Greater New York must be interested in your race. There are one hundred thousand of your people here within the borders of New York City, and any one who is interested in the. welfare of the people of the entire city must be interested in the people of your race. One person out of every fifty is colored. Take the Harlem district, about one-half a mile square, and there are about forty thousand of your people. You take the district between 50th and 69th streets, there are ten or twelve thousand of your people. So there are other sections in the County of New York where the population is almost entirely composed of those of your people who have come from the Southern States.

The success of this work requires the co-operation of individuals, activated by proper purpose, moved by a desire for what is right and good and wise. This organization should be supported by all. "There is a great future for the race of which you are the representatives. I do not say it in the hurst of a momentary enthusiasm; I do not say it because of the character of these immediate surroundings; I do not say it because of the presence upon this platform of the gifted man who has made your race well known throughout the world for its strength of heart and mind, but I say it because I have observed deeply the people of your race. Oh, you say you have only seen them in the criminal courthouse. I have seen them elsewhere. I have seen them under other circumstances. I have no hesitancy in saying that in courthiness, courtesy of conduct, in that instinctive politeness which marks the native, in that kind of language which holds, impresses and enforces conviction, your race is the equal of any other."

One cannot succeed in any work unless he it contented to make it his life work. I tried to learn every detail, not only the practical side of the business, but the commercial side as well, which is all important if one wishes to make a big success. "When I decided to start in business for myself some years ago I asked a man who had some work to give out in my line (he was and now is in the livery business) to prepare me a place in his establishment where I might do his work along with what I might, perchance, get from the outside, and to my agreeable surprise it was just what he had been looking for. I knew it would be a great saving in time for him to have the work done on the premises. He agreed to prepare a place for me. I agreed to pay $5 a month for the place. He spent $35 for work of preparation, and he even had the bench made. "When everything was ready for my reception he asked me where my tools were. The question made me feel pretty bad, but I finally mustered nerve enough to tell him that I didn't have any. 'What then do you mean to do about it?' he said. 'I mean to borrow the money of you to buy them, with.' He seemed at first to hesitate, but finally asked me how much I needed. I expressed no little confidence in my ability to get along beautifully on $10. He wrote me an order for the goods. I hurried off, got the goods, and started in to work. Not more than two weeks later, I redeemed his order and returned it to him, marked paid. This is the way I got my start in harnessmaking. "We are now in business on a prominent street of Montgomery." The shop is furnished with first-class machinery and tools with which to do up to date work on short notice. The patrons of our business include some of Montgomery's best and most substantial citizens, white and colored. We are making harness and making money. I make mention of this only to show that a colored harnessmaker can succeed if his system and work are what they should be."

Among the speakers was Prof George Haynes of Pisk University, who spoke on "The Call to Scold Service" Prof. Haynes said in part, "We have brought down from the Middle Ages another outcrop idea that knowledge is to be sought for knowledge's sake and culture for culture's sake. This idea grew up at a time when the culture and knowledge that Greece and Rome had brought through centuries of striving, was overwhelmed by the unutured Teutons who swamped down from the wilds of Northern Europe. Probably in order to be preserved for the world in after times, knowledge and culture had to be made ends in themselves. "But we are no longer under such necessity, and to-day the masses of the people are calling to account any notions of an esoteric knowledge and culture. The people are beginning to suspend their belief that they more beauty in their houses and surroundings, and in their dress and personal appearance. They are beginning to question the value of any truth that does not make life more wholesome and more joyous. They are coming to doubt the good which is not red-lobed enough to challenge the truth that we use lu-fitsu on kneed that may starvation wages, extorts high rents for unsatisfactory teement and fattens upon prostitution, gambling and alcholism."

The same committee appeared before the State board of education, was courteously received and the plans endorsed. Dr. J. H. Dillard, agent of the Anna T. Jones and the Slater Funds is an important resource to give material support. Method will soothe the sea of a flourishing training school and time, will no doubt develop into quite an educational center. During the past four years under its present management the school has made gratifying progress. Two large and well equipped rooms have been added, the school furnished with modern equipment, and a domestic science department under a special teacher who administers a third room. Plate a ten-room brick building, five acres of land, a thorough course of training for county teachers and an enlargement of the industrial department. It is of special note that this work is being sanctioned, organized and pushed by white school officials with cheering enthusiasm. They are aware the very best resources for Negroes from the district system and they are proceeding in the right-way. It will cost not less than $10,000 to put, the scheme in operation and the $10,000 will be forthcoming. This does not seem so low a state of affairs as politicians would picture. On the contrary it is just such conditions, as the House, the Tillman, the Vardemians and others of that ilk are living to prevent. In fact it is Christian in composing, more glorious realizations. Negroes everywhere should encourage these manifestations of the christian spirit in our white people. It is in them and should be exerted. Method is destined to become a great business place for Negroes. New settlers are coming in. Home improvements are going on everywhere. The streets are being cleaned and maintained, business enterprises of far-reaching consequence are being considered. Here the Negroes may build up a thriving town and give direction to a new civilization. STRAIGHTEN YOUR HAIR Not with hot irons.

Francisco Villa; the successful Mexican revolutionist, may or may not be a Negro and former trooper of one of the Negro regiments; that is really not material where large questions are concerned any more than it was in the case of the nine Maceo brothers; every one of whom died that Cuba might have life more abundantly, and each one of whom was a Spanish-Negro. No braver or more resourceful fighters ever lived nor were ever more loyal to their commander-in-chief, Maximo Gomez, himself a Spanish Indian, born in Santo Domingo. When events become perspective in history we do not inquire too closely as to the race of a man, but we never tire of studying his character and methods. Was Agamemnon a black Egyptian and King Solomon a black Cananite of Israel, and were Hamilar and Hannibal of Carthage black Africans are academic questions which the student promptly subordinates to the larger questions. What, did they think and do to immortalize themselves and their times in song and story? It is now said that Gen. Villa is a Spanish-Indian—whose—father—was a Spanishian and whose mother was a Mexican peon, while Gen. Carranza, his chief, is said to be pure Aztec or Indian. Their recent successes against the federal troops of President Huerta and the fierceness of the warfare, with no quarter asked and none given, may well bear out the racial classification of them, as there is no hatred equal to that between the half-breed son of his father, whose brother despises his mother and would deny him a fair part in the inheritance of their common father. The Negroes of the United States confront the same condition of affairs. The white sons of the white fathers are forcing upon the colored sons of the same fathers the vile alternative of being servants, outcasts in the citizenship and manhood of the country, or challenges the right of their brothers for a fair share of the common inheritance. They cannot sow to the winds and not reap the whirlwind in the United States, any more than they can do so in Mexico, Cuba or other places. Blood will assert itself. Gen. Villa has shown that he is a good hater, vindictive, as well as a good fighter, just like the bloody Spaniards, one-half of whom he is said to be in blood. After conquering Torreon he reacts. After conquering Chihuahua by giving the Spaniards in the place, planters and traders, so many hours to "beat it," to get out, with a threat to confiscate their property after they had done so. There were some six hundred of these Spaniards, and they were a sorry and forbidden lot of people as they straggled across the border into the United States, to be housed and fed by strangers. The American newspapers, the white ones and alleged white ones, claim that this is savage warfare and should not be countenanced. So it is savage warfare, but when did the Spaniards ever wage any other sort on the Mexican Indians? When did the United States ever wage any other sort on the Indians of the United States? They say, "But that was long ago, when men were more savage." So it was, but their sins will find them out and napping, although it take a thousand years in doing so, and as regardless of the changed conditions of time as if there had never been any time. It was that way in the recent bloody war in the Balkan Greek States, when the bloody Turk and Moskens met the Greeks and Christians whom they had wronged and outraged for hundreds of years. Vindictiveness and vengeance is sleepless through the ages, and demonstrate that it is so as often as they front each other. Of course we believe in humanity and Of course we believe in humanity and in the Christian verities. But no argument, Christian or otherwise can weigh against wrong and outrage when the SEGREGATION KILLED IN NORTH CAROLINA It is a faithful saying, and true, that the unexpected happens oftener the affairs of men and in the most unexpected places. The Supreme Court of North Carolina, Chief Justice Walter Clark, Jr., rendering the unanimous opinion, has just declared unconstitutional the segregation ordinance of the town of Winston-Salem, the case being the State vs. Darnell. The Court holds that the charter of Winston-Salem did not confer any authority upon it to enact a segregation ordinance; that such authority could not be covered by "the general welfare" clause, and that the legislature would hardly confer such authority, preventing owners of property from selling to whomsoever they pleased, "which no statute will be construed as having power to take away," being "an important element of property and vested right protected by the clause in the Federal Constitution, which declares the obligation of contract to be inviolate." The effect of the decision will be to kill all of the segregation ordinances now in force in the towns and cities of North Carolina, and to put a stop to the agitation for rural segregation so insistently propagated by Mr. Clarence Poe, the ambitions, editor of the Progressive Former, who wants to be Governor, and has made rural segregation a hobby upon which to do so. Now he will have to get him another hobby. But consider the wasted ammunition and time he has spent and cannot recover! Such firebrands should not only be denied the Governorship, but their subscribers should get them—a wiser, saner and juster, agricultural guide, philosopher and friend. Segregation cases should be carried to the State courts as fast as possible, and from them to the Federal Supreme Court, until the vexed question is determined as it should be. FREDERICK DOUGLASS' DEFINITION OF "SOCIAL" PRIVILEGES AND "CIVIL" RIGHTS In these piping times of discord and confusion as to colors of their skin rather than quality and measure of their rights under the fundamental law of the land, the Constitution of the United States and of the several States, which should not allow of conflict, in matters not reserved to the States but delegated to the United States, and the exasperating definition of words so that they shall mean what they do not means and never intended to mean, it is well to recall what Mr. Frederick Douglass said about it in his celebrated address at the Louisville Convention, one of the largest and most representative race gatherings that had therefore been held on our Continent, September 25 to 27, 1883, thirty-one years ago, in which there were more than three hundred delegates, with twenty-eight States represented. We quote from the life of Mr. Douglass, compiled by Prof. James Monroe Gregory (pp. 150-153), as follows: "The practical construction of American life is a convention against us. Human law may know no distinction among men in respect of rights, but human practice may. Examples are painfully abundant." "The right of every American citizen to select his own society, and to invite whom he will to his own parlor and table, should be sacredly respected. A man's house is his castle, and he has a right to admit or refuse admission, to it as he may please, and defend his house from all intruders even with force if need be. This right belongs to the humblest no less than to the highest, and the exercise of it by any, of our citizens toward any person or class who may presume to intrude should cause no complaint, for each and all may exercise the same right toward whom he will. "When he quits his home and goes upon the public street, enters a public car or a public house, he has no exclusive right of occupancy. He is only a part of the great public; and while he has the right to walk, ride and be accommodated with food and shelter in a public conveyance or hotel, he has no exclusive right to say that another citizen, tall or short, black or white, shall not have the same civil treatment with himself. The argument against equal rights at hotels is very improperly put upon the ground that the exercise of such rights is social equality." But this ground is unreasonable. It is hard to say what social equality is, but it is certain that going into the same street car, hotel or steamboat cabin does not make any man society for another, any more than flying in the same air makes all birds, of one feather. "Two men may be seated at the same table at a hotel; one may be a Webster in intellect, and the other a Guiteau in feebleness of mind and morals, and, of course, socially and intellectually they are as wide apart as are the poles of the moral universe, but their civil rights are the same. The distinction between the sorts of equality is broad and plain to the understanding of the most limited, and yet, blinded by prejudice, men never cease to confound one, with the other, and allow themselves to infringe the civil rights of their fellow-citizens as if those rights were in some way in violation of their social rights. "That this denial of rights to us is because of our color, only as color is a badge of condition, is manifest in the fact that no matter how decently dressed or well behaved a colored man may be, he is denied civil treatment in the ways thus pointed out, unless he becomes a servant. His color, not his character, determines the place, he shall hold and the kind of treatment he shall receive. That this is due to a prejudice and has no rational principle under it is seen in the fact that the presence of colored persons in hotels and rail cars is only offensive when they are there as guests and passengers. As servants they are welcome, but as equal citizens they are not. It is also seen in the further fact that nowhere else on the globe: except in the United States, are colored people subject to insult and outrage on account of color. The colored traveler in Europe does not meet it, and we denounce it here as a disgrace to American civilization and American religion, and as a violation of the letter and spirit of the Constitution of the United States. From those courts which have solemnly sworn to support the Constitution, and that yet treat this provision of it with contempt, we appeal to the people and call upon our friends to remember our civil rights at the ballot-box. On the point of the two equalities we are determined to be understood. "We leave social equality where it should be left—with each individual man and woman. No law can regulate or control it. It is a matter with which governments have nothing whatever to do. Each man may choose his own friends and associates without interference or dictation of any." It is because of the tendency everywhere to override Mr. Douglass' clear definition of "social" privileges and "civil" rights that we quote all that he said on the subject, to the end that the readers of The Ace may be informed and our contemporaries have it before them in any time of perplexity. two meet to even scores on the bloody fields of arbitrament. Even in the minor affairs of civil life the wrongdoer is not forgiven by him he deliberately injures; wrongs, robs, or mains, but is haled to the nearest police or civil magistrate that he may be compelled to make restitution and be otherwise punished; and there are times when the wronged and the outraged, have not, the patience, the self-control to wait the law's delay, but undertakes to right his own wrongs. Yes, Gen. Villa is vindictive, revengeful. So are all men who have been wronged by arrogant and insolent races in the hour of their triumph and who plead the baby act in the hour of their weakness, their decrepitude, their reverses. It is a splendid characteristic of a man or a race that he will not forget a favor nor forgive a wrong. The greatest weakness the American Negro has, and has ever had, is the easy disposition to forget a favor and forgive a wrong, when the-white man has been the guilty party, and follow one of his own people to the death who offends him as the murderous Israelite did Moses, who wanted them to remember that they were men and brethren and not fight and contend among themselves. "Who made the a prince and a judge over us," asked the guilty Israelite. And "Moses feared and said, Surely this thing is known," and got him out of Egypt and into the land of Midian. Gen. Villa is not that sort. Remembering the wrongs the Spaniards have done the Mexican Indians in other days, he makes them "strike the trail" when he has the upper hand. Opressors in our own land should remember that Nemises sleeps not. NATIONWIDE PROHIBITION The Roe has frequently asserted that there would never be any effective prohibition of the liquor traffic in the United States until the right to legalize and tax it should be taken out of the power of the States and prohibited, in the manufacture and sale of it, by an amendment to the Federal Constitution. In times past there has not appeared to be any possibility of the submission to the people and adoption of any such amendment because of the treinable influence wielded by the liquor interests, and because so large a part of the voting population are against the restriction or prohibition of the traffic. This population has been steadily increasing with the increase of our foreign population, whose drinking habits have been formed through ages of license and indulgence, so that it has become a part of their natures. A resolution is now pending in Congress authorizing the submission to the people of the country of a Constitutional amendment prohibiting the sale and manufacture of intoxicating liquors, and the champions of it predict that the resolution will be adopted. We hope so. There are 233,000 retail liquor dealers in the United States—one to every 400 inhabitants—and the number is increasing every year. The injury done to the health and morals of the nation by the liquor traffic cannot be established, and the sooner it is outlawed the better 'it will be' for the nation. After the traffic has been prohibited for no longer than a generation, with the removal of the saloons everywhere as an open door and invitation to dissipation, the appetite for liquor would be destroyed, and in 'two-generations the nation would be regenerated and its health' and 'morals restored to the healthy, normal condition. DR. DU BOIS ON THE LATE ROBERT C. OGDEN. In a recent issue of the Crisis, the organ.of the Association for the Advancement of the Colored People, Dr. DuBois, the editor, has the following to say of the late Mr. Ogden: A self-concious, selfhelping Negro was born an anomoneon, irritated him, unreasonably. He wanted Negroes to be satisfied and dbl well in the whole ought to occupy. He could use sympathy with the revolt of honest, far-seeing men against such caste. The result was We take no pleasure in calling the attention of our readers to such a misrepresentation of Mr. Ogden's character as the above quotation indicates, except to let the world know that the Negro race in this country has no sympathy with such utterances as the above from the pen of Dr. DuBois. We are not a race of ingrates. The Negro race is sincerely grateful to men like Mr. Ogden; Dr. Frissell, Mr. Schieffelin, Mr. Peabody, Mr. Rosenwald, Mr. Low and scores of others who are giving not only their money but their time in helping forward the interest of our race. While the Negro may not be able to express his appreciation in words or deeds very often, nevertheless he feels his appreciation, and we cannot let such a misrepresentation of Mr. Ogden's character go to the world from the pen of Dr. DuBois without our protest. We are sorry for any man who is so unfortunate, as is true of Dr. Du Bois, who can let his passions and prejudices run away, with him to the extent of speaking in this way of our dead friend. Even though this characterization of Mr. Ogden were true, it would have been, in extremely bad taste to have spoken of him in this way' now that he is no longer on earth. But we want to say again that we call attention to what Dr. DuBois has said simply to correct the impression that may obtain among some that the Negro is not grateful. But for the generosity and money and time and strength of men like Mr. Ogden it would have been impossible for Dr. DuBois to have gone through Fisk University. It was through the influence of men like Mr. Ogden that Dr. DuBois was sent to Europe and received, training. It was through the gifts of money and time of men like Mr. Ogden that the professor was maintained in his chair at Atlanta University. We cannot, then, for these and many other reasons, remain quiet and permit a friend, though dead, to be vilified and misrepresented. The ten millions of our citizens in this country look upon Mr. Ogden as their cherished and heroic friend. He was all the more their friend because he was brave enough not to deceive them. Mr. Ogden could have easily spent his time and money going among the colored people and crying out liberty, manhood rights, independence and the ballot, and all the rest of it. Mr. Ogden knew that while the Negro needed all these things, at the same time the possession of these elements within them, selfs would not solve his problem. Mr. Ogden, while wanting every right for the Negro, devoted the larger, part of his time and money to helping the Negro get those elements which would in the end place him upon his feet and enable him to protect himself and enjoy all the rights from the lowest to the highest of any American citizen. It was far from Mr. Ogden's thought to limit the aspirations or activities of the American Negro in the very slightest degree, but he wanted him to be a full-fledged complete American citizen. THE GUNMEN PAY THE LAST DEBT. The gansters, the dwellers of the underworld of New York life, have become so numerous and brazen of late that decent people, like those of Chicago, are uncertain of the day and the hour when they are secure from assault, robbery or insults, in their homes or on the public thoroughfares. The lawless condition is accentuated by the fact, repeatedly disobstructed by court records, that the police and the gangsters have a mutual understanding and profit by it at the expense of the whole people. Even when the law lays its hands upon members of the gangsters and the guilty police, the lawyers are able by all sorts of makeshifts to prolong the trials and executions of sentences of all such so outrageously as often to defeat the ends of justice, and always sufficiently so as to outrage and disgust honest citizens. It was that way in the outrageous cases of the four gunmen, alleged tools of Lieut. Charles, Becker, who murdered Gambler Rosenthal "because he knew too much about their dirty business". The four were electrocuted at Sing Sing last week. The names of them are sufficiently gruesome to make timid people quake at the mention of them. They were "Dago Frank," "Gyp the Blood," "Whitey" Lewis and "Letty Louie." They have paid the last debt, but they leave plenty of their sort alive in New York to keep the people on tiptoe and the police busy; while Charles Beeker, convicted of murder in connection with the four and as principal in the instigation, is still unhanged and seeking a new trial. The New York Times rightfully complains that the four gunmen should not have been allowed to live a whole year after they had been convicted of murdering the gambler at the instance of Lieut. Becker; but legal process is no longer popular in New York, or in other parts of the country, for the master of that. It is hard to catch the miscreants, if they be white; it is hard to convict them when caught, and it is harder still to get, the sentence executed upon them when they are convicted. It is not that, way with a colored crook or alleged, crook in New York nor anywhere else in the United States. When he goes wrong he is soon captured and railroaded without delay or sentiment. There will be no change in present scandalous conditions until public opinion and the law stop looking at the color and look directly and entirely at the alleged criminal acts of the person. EDITORIAL NOTES The Petersburg Colored Virginian says: "It stands to reason that both the Republican and Democratic parties have outlived their day of usefulness." Whaipa. But why lug in the Republican party, which is not dead but very sick? Now the City has $8,000 factories and manufactures two billion dollars worth of goods every year. None of these factories is owned by colored people and few colored people are employed by colored businesses. But will not always be so. The Negro is young yet, with plenty of time and room, to grow in. Already we have small concerns that promise to grow into big factories. A writer in London Everyman says the French are essentially a feminine people, every woman is a feminine woman, women play the most important part in upsetting things. One of the most striking weaknesses of the Negro race is the hossy disposition of women, which plays the most having their way, which is often, very often, not the best way, but which the men allow them to have for the sake of peace, which often, very often, turns out to be a very unhappy woman is a very unhappy thing to have about the home. Senator Ben-Jamin F. Tillman of South Carolina, has prevailed upon the Senate to abolish the time-honored indulgence of smoking tobacco in Indiana, where it does not smoke, but before he was paralyzed as to his throat he did not mind tobacco smoke; now, he insisted, he would not smoke. He persisted in, he would be unable to attend the executive sessions. The Senate has been more considerate of Senator Tillman's comfort than he has ever colored people he has misrepresented and black guarded in the Senate for years. When it is said of a person that "he has plenty, of move," it is understood at once that he is high up in the sort of titing at which he is an expert. He is Morgan, a color expert, who the Raleigh (N. C.) Eventing Times reports, "climbed the stockade to the State-penitentiary, broke into the prison and under the death chain." More thieves in thinking a stockade a good place to break out of, but Expert Morton has the other view, and goes through with him he will have plenty of opportunity to think it over. War is costly business, but nations will play at it. It's Cowar says in the poetry of humourisms and Longfellow's poems, that leaders get through with their revolutions and counter revolutions in Mexico the poor people of the country, and that the rich get through with bills by many years of grinding toll, in burdensome taxation. The Hukkan was not of long duration, but it held on for many years, and bonds on the market for $100,000,000, and there may be more to follow, and the Greeks are very poor. We do not know, but he clearly to force the Mohammedan Turks out of Europe. Rudyard Kipling was born in India and has made fame and fortune writing about India and its people, and yet Sarsath-Roy says, in the North of India, "I have had the opportunity to correctly depict Indian scenes and to portray Indian character. 'He is not an authority on Indian or things Indian; he is only a writer of the life of foreigners.'" He wrote of the pain of witnessing Sarsath-Roy, that is a grave charge, and one that a native Indian would not make without sufficient provocation. A like charge, we believe, cannot be made without a like Shriller, who have written so sympathetically of the blacks of South Africa. The New York Court of Appeals has granted a new trial to Leitn. Charles Becker, of the New York Police Department, who was convicted to hang himself, pleaded guilty to murder Herman Rosenthal, the gambler, on the ground that Justice Goff was arbitrary, prejudiced and unjust, and forced a conviction. The four "gunnern" convicted with Rosenthal are guilty of murder, and the it seems to be the general opinion that Becker will not again be tried. He may not have been guilty of inciting the murder of Rosenthal, but aside from that he was a bad and dangerous man, he has carried things with a very high hand, and the public is wilt rid of him. A New York salesman back from South America says that the Latin Americans do not like us of the United States, and they are not the child. They are a mixed race of people and American prejudice against colored people has got badly upon their self-esteem. The President Cleveland, the United States has been using "the Big Stick" freely on the Latin Americans, and that kind of prejudice against colored people has alienated the United States has alienated the confounding and esteem of the black and yellow races of Asia and Africa and the United States has alienated placing her race prejudice before everything else, her export trade will he crippled enormously and in times of trouble she will find herself quite alone on the map of the world. It is very much that way now.... The liquor question threatens to split the Texas Democracy. Judge R bert H. ferrell was confirmed by the Sate nt Ursday Ap.II.3, as judge, of the Municipal court. The parcel post is proving to be useful in unexpected ways. The crenated remains, in the ashes thereof, of a German Count have been shipped to Rochelle, New York, to Poen, German, of a live 18-month baby was shipped between points in Pennsylvania from his grandparents to his parents, via Rural Free Delivery. The preachers of New Jersey have urged the Legislature to pass a law to compel the reading of at least six every school day. This is hard on the innocent children, as the preachers of New Jersey can spell, the letters but not the words of the Bible, as to the old or new test of men. What is needed in the schools is a text book, of Christian moral philosophy, gathered for the most part than direct reading of the Biblical text. Mr. Henry E. Huntington of New York, has just paid $1,000,000 for a paper on the Bible, and is in the library of the Duke of Devonshire. In 1911 Mr. Huntington paid $1,300,000 for the private library of the late E. Huntington, and in addition, books of the Gutenberg Bible; in 1912 he paid $600,000 for the famous Beverly Chew collection; making a total of $1,000,000 in books within three years by one book. The books are not bought to be read, to be studied, but for "pride of possession." They may also be regarded as an investment in value as real estate in Manhattan Island does. Dr. S. L. Corrothors, who was recently transferred from Washington to the Varkiick Institutional Temple, Philadelphia, prove the conditions of colored people in Philadelphia. He-thinks the race needs a second emancipation. "Our second emancipation, he says, must be from political injustice, erosion and political thralldom. Christian education alone can do it," he says. But why inug of "political emancipation" is necessary? Parties left the Negro to his own political—inclinations. Not one of them makes an honest bid that he "come, come," he says. Things Dr. Corrothors mentions are not new at all, and not peculiar to the Negro people. Far from it. We hope the work of making people live better lives, and not a new work: How much time the people of the United States consume in talking is indicated is some sort by the state-territory. For instance, in *13,735,654,245* telephone calls. These calls were, presumably, on matters of bushem, but a large per cent. of bushem were in the densities. In which the phone is used for the most part, for social interchanges between the women in their bands and wives. But the National talkfest is represented only in small part by the phone calls. Long confabs take place every day between people in the bands and wives. All sorts of masters, mostly of a frivolous character. The silent people, who confine themselves to the simple tasks, do most of the thinking and planning and overseeing of the world's work. The Tuskegee: Student reports Dr. R. E. Park as asking in address at the mobilization of the effects of the mobilization of the blacks bring him into closer and more intimate contact with his wife people. Common interests have drawn the blacks the black and white apart. The segregation of the races which began as a spontaneous movement on the part of the black and white apart of the dominant race. The agitation of Reconstruction Period made the blacks the sole force in politics and assulate. Segregation and the segregation in other mutters have gone on steadily ever since". The Negro never has the power to force one or a white man in this country. The Reconstruction constitutions of the Southern States and the laws enacted upon them; made in any way the basis of the whites in any of the relations of a white man is responsible for establishing the cause and segregation business of justice, and he will in pay the price for doing it. He can't escape. The legislature of Virginia has just appropriated $88,575 for education all institutes and the State, not including appropriations for school purposes. Of the $88,575, white schools, colleges and the like receive $95,007 and two colored State schools $10,000, of which Virginia is 2,060,005, of which 32.6 percent, are colored, and who own 1,622,626 acres of farm land, valued, with which the State collected taxes last year, $49,548; in 24 of 101 counties they also paid on personal property in taxes $10,000, of which the State collected tax values not included. The New York national and Guide, commenting on this condition says: "It is just possible do not contribute one to the education but that they receive a part of the money which the Negro region receives if the money was divided each race." It is urgently necessary to educate a public opinion in Virginia that will compel the Legislature to distribute the tax funds among the tax funds among all public institutions supported in part or wholly by public taxation.

Bukka School was destroyed by fire shortly after 12 o'clock Thursday; April 9. The students and teachers rushed from the dining hall and tried to save the building, but in vain. The source of the fire is unremedied and there unremedied surgeries were kept. The building was partly covered by insurance. The Enfield fire company aided in saving other buildings, which were in danger. The chapel bell-rung for an hour and a half and was heard for miles. The students and teachers saved some of the contents of the building, so that the school worked on carried on in the other building. The Christian Endeavor Society rendered a beautiful Easter program Sunday evening at 7 o'clock; which was very pleasantly enjoyed. BLINDLY LEADING: THE BLIND (From the Columbia When the 'political leader', State were urging the calling of situational convention to adopt a disfranchised majority of the Negroes to disfranchise that no white man would be disfranchised. When the convention met in 1895 they made good their pledge by not, until January, 1895, a man might be franchised by "explaining" a section of the constitution when it was read aloud to him, if he could not 'read' it himself. After the date named ability to read assessed at $300 on ownership, or property assessed at $300 on ownership, the main qualifications for suffrage. The aim of the constitution makers was to save all white abolition, especially from disfranchisement and from disfranchisement in effect for a little more than two years accomplished, that object. So much was open said to the constitution makers expected and intended that after January 1895, literate whites would be disfranchised and they intended that they should left the 'explaining' provision open indefinitely. This course was adopted with the obvious purpose of furnishing an in-depth understanding of the principles for suffrage. The markers of the constitution foresaw that unfit literacy were made a qualification for registration, a considerable proportion of the population were admitted to it. Immediately, by means of the primary systems, the object of the constitution makers was defeated. The primary system are the politicians most interested in, and were admitted to 'it'. Consequently, the suffrage as an incentive to the whites to learn to read has been eliminated completely and illiteracy decreases the proportion of the population. Meantime, the politicians of the present day most resolutely set against the regulation and restriction of the suffrage antagonistic to compulsory school attendance laws—the only certain corrective of illiteracy. Investigation by educational authorities proves that the suffrage is not to be hand in band in American States. The Negro filiterates, however, having no primary in which they can vote and make their power felt, are sending their children to school. There are now legally qualified to register but "there are 125,000 others not so qualified. This, last number is being reduced every year. The plain truth is, we are pursuing the course in South Africa, and we are multiplying the multiples Negro voters. Probably in fifteen years we shall have 100,000 or 125,000 Negroes qualified to register and they would not, increase more rapidly under compulsory school attendance. We are making the incentive, as we have pointed out, practically equal to compulsion. These manifest truths the State does not expect to influence any of our politicians, or any faction. To deliliterate from the primary, some use the same name as the white, while others use the long run, to be a stronger and bitterer renegade than our political leaders dare administer. Ultimately, their policy is dangerous if not destructive to white supremacy. For the next, generation it is disliked. For the next generation it is disliked. For an antiswhite policy, but they can afford to think about the next generation. We have no leaders of that character. Some of them, at their political peril, will hesitantly allow compulsory school attendance. They will only policy that is reconcilable with the white primary of literate to the white primary. We do not charge that all our leaders are aware of what they are doing, but the opponents of primary education oppose compulsory school attendance, are not working to keep the poor while man down. The ultimate effect of endangering is in the direction of making the interlocutor so far a schooling is of advantage, the Negro. This the ignorant man will not believe and so the enemy may get his vote, but the truth argument is absolute unrepreentable. What does the average South Carolina politician care about the future the poor white man, if he can get his vote now. ADVICE TO YOUNG GIRLS (BY MOTHER) My Dear Girl, Have you ever thought of how much good a smile can do and how much harm a frown can do? If it can't be happy, seem to be happy, once it can will soon be painful. I once read of a man who in early life established the rule that he would force himself every day to be happy until 10 o'clock in the morning. If he succeeded up to that point the problem took care of itself usually for the rest of the day. He would keep his home, you can keep it with moods and cast such bright sunbeams" in it that the sin and allurements of the outside world will have no attractions for you. Let the weakest, let the humbleest girl remember that, in her daily life she can, if she will, kindly around her children, will kindly around her gentry, watchfulness against wounding people's feelings cost very little but they are very valuable. girls, remember there are some diseases that are catching and there are other things which are catching also and you can spread them without thinking. Crossness and bad temper are little ones of the home for they spread very fast. Good temper, sunshine, love and joy are catching and can be spread ever so far. Be careful what you give the little folks. Use kind words at home. Speak kindly in the morning and make the household and all other affairs move along smoothly. Speak kindly at night, for it may be that before the dawn some loved one may finish his or her space of life and it will be too late to ask forgiveness. Kind words are a balm to the soul and make the machinery of life and keep it in good running order. Whatever you do learn to do, it well, if it is to cook, clean, sew, iron, read, write or study, no matter what you undertake do. It thoroughly. Small things slighted because they are apparently unimportant lead to habitual neglect so that you can deprive them of an untied, careless girl, insert your home with your own handwork as much as possible. Take advantage of the industrial training that is offered you. Keep busy both with good books and your hands and you will find no time to spend with the "Good Time Girl" unless you can win her on your side, to follow your plans. We don't want you to worry about your shoulders, but we do want to see our young girls stand for something in this country. My next letter will be "The ( ) " Who Works." WASHINGTON, D. C.

It makes the hair grow RIDICULING THE RACE. (BY LESTER A. WALTON.) "O NE Large Evening," the latest photo play, produced by the Afro-American Film Company, will not be shown in the movies of Chicago for one small second. This picture has been rejected by the Censor Board of that city on the ground that it unnecessarily ridicules the colored American. The Censor Board refused to pass a movie called the Large Evening" at the instance of the Rev. J. Carey, the colored member of the board, who occupies a strategic position and can render the race invaluable service. "One Large Evening" is described as a "comedy picture," but members of the race who have respect for their women and their ministry, fail to discover one iota of humor in it. The plot deals with a preacher who calls on a doctor's wife to make love to her, of a doctor, who visits a grocer's wife on a similar mission, and of a grocer, who goes to the home of the preacher and the grocer, who visits the grocer's better half. Then there is a decoration a railroad porter, who are so infatuated with the doctor's wife, that they make secret visits to the home of the M.D. The doctor, returns home after his fittation to discover the deacon and the railroad porter hiding in the bed and behind the piano, respectively. He forcibly ejects them, but the minister, who has been secreted in the fireplace, outwits the doctor and temporarily gets out of his predicament. Later, how-about the preacher's Bible and then there is a gun the doctor shooting at the preacher, who runs down the street at record-breaking time. Of course, the respective husbands and wives finally smooth out the matrimonial entanglement. Motion pictures of to-day are said to be educational. Just what lesson "One Large Evening" teaches is a piece of information the producers can give, say. The majority of colored theologeos who attended the Larafaye Theatre expressed the opinion that it was a libel on the respectability and morals of the race. It is indeed strange that the producers of the picture, who are members of the Jewish race, should find it so agreeable to degrade the colored American. When the stage manager grazed in a campaign against the stage caricatures of their own. "One Large Evening" is the only photo play I have ever seen in which a minister of the Gospel was depicted in an immoral light, and I never expect to see a rabbi or a priest presented in the films in such an unbecoming and none too complimentary role. No film makers would have the audacity to produce a picture so seriously involving a priest or a rabbi, knowing full well that the audience would be. Members of the stage should demand the same respect for their ministry as is accorded white ministers of the Gospel. When "One Large Evening" was shown at the Lafayette Theatre there were some who were disposed to criticize Hunter C. Haynes, who has been associated with the Afro-American Film Company, for putting the picture on the market. But it is said that this "One Large Evening" was when the agivisibility of producing "One Large Evening" was discussed. That Mr. Haynes is not a member of the concern was borne out by the announcement in the papers a few days ago that the Afro-American Film Company had incorporated for $10,000, with A. W. Burg, G. G. Burg, and P. Perhaps it is the same old story—the colored man furnishing the idea, but shut out from partnership when the proposition materializes. "It is said that the "comedy" picture in question has two names—"One Large Evening" when shown at colored theatres and "A Night in Coontown" when shown at a movie theater, readily seen that the education of the members of the Afro-American Film Company has been badly neglected with regard to the colored American. We object to the title "A Night in Coontown" with as much vehemence as sheeneytown. Furthermore, the word "Coontown" is not so miirth providing to white theatregoers as Messrs. Burg and Wade inny seem to think. In the production of "One Large Evening" is its painfully apparent that a studied effort has been made to depict the colored American's mode of living as exceedingly primitive, compared with the colored doctor, who is the colored doctor, is represented as living with his wife in one room, which is used by the family both for the receiving of company and for indulgence in nocturnal slumber. The piano and bed are in the same room, which is used by the physician in Greater New York, who is guilty of living with his family in practically one room. Then, despite the fact that nine out of every ten colored families reside in modern flats and apartment houses, the colored preacher's residence is portrayed as an old house, one of the few houses by colored people in the Harlem district. Now, if it is true that motion pictures are educational, manufacturers of films which deal with Negro life should seek to present conditions as they are and not as they think they should be; or, as they like, the liberty of assuming, what the public imagines they ought to be, the ignorance displayed by average Americans, of the home life and natural development of the colored American is bad enough, and tends to make, the race question more complex without motion pictures making matters worse by continually representing the race at jis-wors. The duty of the film manufacturer should be to emancipate the white American from his, peculiar ideas and incorrect notions of the colored American, not ignorance, which is hurt[ul] to both races. Negro life is best known by Negroes, and we have many writers of ability who are capable of contributing meritorious scenarios, provided their efforts are sufficiently reminiscent. But they want to be given the same respectful consideration as, other writers. It is best that that the colored people of this country stop those who would ridicule the race now. The rejection of "One Large Evening" in Chicago is most timely. Let the good work continue. COLORED NOT CLANNISH (From the Variety.) ATKINSON, Kan, April13—The Pekin, this city's vaudeville theatre for colored people, has quit business because of lack of patronage. The colored people of this place prefer to patronize the white people, who dresses rather than see their own people act. ENKIRT, Norr—Peculiar ideas make white people have about colored people. It would be absurd for us to charge that dozens of theatres conducted under white management had failed this season because white folk are not clanish. Colored people have a preference the same as white people. It is hard to believe that colored Americans of Atkinson, Kans, found moving pictures more entertaining than the brand of vaudeville disheated out to them.

Hull, 5 West 125th street, Tuesday evening, April 21. Mr. Penso is a member of the faculty of the Mando Mozart Conservatory of Music, Madison avenue and this was his second annual recital. The ambitions program, which included Rumberg's 2nd sonata and Galuterner's concerto, was given excellent interpretation, the performer exhibiting familiarity with the music and facility of execution. Purity of tone and correct bowing characterized the concert as a whole, though the musicians were very engaged. There was a temporary lapse from pitch. Mr. Penso was especially sympathetic in the "hieracuse" and the "Meditation," which were played with understanding and expression beautiful in simplicity. Mr. piano accompaniments were played by Mabille Charlton, a consumate and finished artist, whose work is always beyond avail. What the audience lacked in magnitude it made up in enthusiasm, and Mr. Pensae must have been gratified at his reception as an artist, although without it. The program was as follows; 1. 2nd sonata aftone, andante, andante, allegro finale, Romberg. 2. (a) Traunnerie-Schumann; (b) Gavotte; No. 2, 1. Popper; (c) Bercuse, Godard. 3.

SHAW WINS TWO. let dropping two games to Kittrell and Oxford, respectively, got together upon returning to its regular place of abode, and won the next two games. The first game at home was played with the National - Religious Training of Durham, N. C. Thursday, April 6; Iowa, from Feb. 10 to April 7; want to Raleigh with fire in their eyes and strength in their arms. However when they boarded their train after the game on their way to "Duke's headquarters," a score restoring to the favor of Shaw was rinking in their cars. The Livingstone baseball pitch, hailing from Salbury, N. C., journeyed over to Raleigh on April 17, and entered a diamond fray with a strutter-ish screaming "Old Shaw," and the india from J. C. Price's famous College fell down before the force cannonning of the Shaw sluggers, 8 to 4. Henderson, the southpaw, just lost 4 and was on the firing line in ingstone, but was driven from the mound "after five rounds of milling; amid a fuselade of hits and runs. Jambos, a young star, also gifted with the down the intial sack for the visitors, Henderson, and also hit hard. Hiatstur, who is with Shaw the first time, being a Freshman, stood on the hill for the University and struck out the first eight men who faced him, a font rarely equaled. Shaw was the first to score. St. Christopher defeated Howard because the machine has the best team and knows more inside scientific basketball. Howard played her final game, but the big Red and lil' Black Machine played just so much better. In the game, St. Christopher men have gone through the best system of coaching obtainable and this, coupled with a rigid course of truffling has produced material that is second to none. Edward Wetzel is the best basketball coach in the game to day and his record is a wonderful one. I was after Mr. Wetzel for several season but I wasn't successful in landing him until this season. I fed well repalrs for my hard work and I was able to squirt the best of everything and as long as I handle them I shall see that my boys continue to get the best. THE GAME N. Friday evening, April 17, Howard and St. Christopher elapsed for the second time within a minute the question of supremacy, and the Hirten quint scored a decisive victory before three thousand spectators, winning by the score of 29 to 17. By defeating Howard University, St. Christopher won championship title of the country and has come in possession of the handsome, Hunt trophy. St. Christopher outplayed Howard in innings, scoring a grace and the score does not indicate how completely the visitors were at the mercy of the whirlwind play of the New Yorkers. At no time was Howard in the lead, and instead of playing its usual offence, was merely which on the defensive. St. Christopher made eight baskets on clean passing in the first half and five in the second half, and the first half and one in the second half, the District of Columbia players, scoring most of their points on fouls committed by the, composite agent. These facts and figures make up the team. In each team. As soon as the game was called St. Christopher started in with a rush, and the aggressive tactics of the Harlemmiers took Gilmore and his colleagues the first point, and made several baskets before Howard succeeded in passing the zero mark. A desperate rally was made by Howard toward the end of the first half, but the score ended: St. Christopher, 17. Howed, 10. Howard repeated in the second half the Machine repeated its dashing game, and in great eagerness to roll up a big score against Howard was frequently penalized. But the Howard players, even the usually reliable Gilmore, seem to have taken a dip in their game to and then to hand the ball in the basket when given an opportunity. For St. Christopher, every member of the quint played brilliantly. Ross was a tower of strength, blocking many a player. Then there was little Perkinson, who was at himself and who scored most of the Machine's runs. "Perkyn" is a fast little player, and his heavy opponents for the first half were realised. Bradford saw to it that Gilmour didn't do much damage, and Robbins led, Accoose also contributed in a large measure to the scoring. Lowry was substituted for The Inourapt Livingstone—P.

C., afforded keen excitement to their respective followers. Until the last innings the store was in previews games, started a batting rally for Potter. The result was two more runs for the blue and white team. The changing of pitchers by Mary Potter did not help them and Bennett came up South to begin the latter of the month, Rithel, Liddle, N. L. T., Mary Potter, Linnestone and Shaw are to be her opponents. J.M. J. WINS AND LOSES. The strong Lane College baseball team took the opening game of the series from M. I.

"If, as has been claimed, the Howard University and St. Christopher aggregations, together," represent the best strength among colored basketball teams, their St. Christopher, by reason of her recent overwhelming victory over Howell. The team's title of the United States, so far as colored teams are concerned, Only one other team, that of Hampton Institute, has shown a form enough to enter the arena as a championship contest, but its very limited" schedule reasonably eliminates it from consideration. "This last game between Howard and St. Christopher was well played, well managed, and takes place in congratulatory Manager Madden, and his wonderful band of players who are well deserving of the appellation, 'The Machine.'" "Howard does not wish to be understood as offering any excuse for her defeat; however, she does wish to say that her team in the last game, both as to its personnel and as to its physical condition, was far inferior to her team in the first game, and does not detract from the credit of Rose, Christopher, and again Howard congratulates her." Rose, toward the end of the second half, the latter sustaining a slight injury. Lowry is another speed marvel, and was in the game but a few seconds when he shot the ball in the basket, when he shot the ball in the basket, when the game had been put on jee, Jenkins, Hargroves, Harding, Green and Brown were put in the lineup, and the substitutes increased the size of Howard's work, was completely elapsed by the fast playing of the local team, and even Gilmore and Holland failed to distinguish themselves as heretofore. One of the features of the team was the Wachaufholt, Jr. He was complimented by both teams for fairness displayed. In connection with the basketball contest, the annual Easter reception of the annual Guild was held, and Manhattan Casinus was filled with stylishly groomed members of both sexes.

In the Garden of Gethsemane, we see him praying in great agony with three sleeping sentinels who were Supposed to be on duty watching and guarding him. According to recounted enemies, priest, and the cold, calculating hypocrite, Judas with their suborned witnesses were about the same time rehearsing their worldly tragedy, malicious drama and terrible tragedy and sleuthy leopards with muffled treason, into the garden of prayer and sorrow of the Lamb of God who is to bear away the sins of the world. After His resurrection He makes a declaration 'which never escaped His lips before, which now He utters and verifies: "All power is given unto Me Heaven and in earth". Before it was God incarnate in man; now it is made perfect, immortal, abiding in God. The Sunday School had its usual session at 2 p.m. m.
