"You continue, shooting me and beating me and Iaint even got a penknife to defend myself with." So it is reported Alexander Thomas spoke after he had been shot in the side, dragged across the street, and struck over the head by the police officer, who shot him, and by a detective who joined in the assault. According to the information obtained by an Ace representative, the trouble started when Wm. Bird, a Harlem Negro, was seen walking up Lenox avenue in company with Thomas Lawlor, a detective attacked to Inspector Ryan's staff. Monday afternoon, May 25, about 4 o'clock. It is alleged that Shepard X Edmons, a private detective, saw Bird with the detective, and up to them at Lenox avenue, and 1344 street accrued Bird holding a stool pigon for which led to the recent raiding of ruptured buffer flats in the Arkansas apartment house and other houses in Harlem, for which raids Edmons had been blamed. It is said that while Edmons was talking to Bird in this strain, Edmons-Thomas, who lives at 163 West 1343 street, came up and inquired of Edmons as to what the trouble was. Edmons proceeded to inform him. The detective, incensed, it is claimed, because of the controversy, ordered Thomas to leave, which Thomas Police Officer Starts Shooting Thomas who is a valet and enjoys a good reputation, after walking across the street came back, it is said, with a bottle in this hand. Police Officer Paul Schultz of the Lenox avenue station, had come up in the meantime and when Thomas approached with the bottle in his hand, Schultz is alleged to have drawn his revolver and started shooting. The men were at the corner of Lenox avenue and 134th street, and when the shooting began, homas ran into the saloon on the street. The detective followed, firing as they ran some of the bullets hitting the ceiling, just as Thomas emerged from the side door of the saloon on the 134th street side, a bullet from Schultz's revolver, it is claimed, struck him in the side and he topped over. The policeman is charged with striking Thomas over the head after he had fallen to the ground. The stricken man was dragged across the street to the harried liquor house, according to reports, and after getting him in that place the detective is said to have been ambushed. The hospital ambulance was called and Thomas was removed to the Harlem Hospital where he is being treated, but where he was not allowed to see, any one, not even Counselor Leavelle who called in the capacity of counsel. The charge has been made in the white papers, that Thomas fired on the officers but it has not been possible to discover the slightest evidence to show that he had a pistol. The statement has also been made that the officers were threatened by the crowd that gathered, insentible witnesses deny this statement. Thomas was over in a very short while. Counselor Leavelle tried to have the commanding police official take the officer who fired the shooting to the hospital for identification by Thomas, whose chances to live appeared very slight. He also obtained certified statements from a number of eyewitnesses to the effect that the entire trouble was precipitated by the policeman Schultz and that it was entirely unnecessary and uncalled. For, amons those who witnessed the affair and have made statements to that officer are Saul Hawkins, 48 West 134th street, Thomas Mitchell, 14 West 134th street, I B. Duncan, 89 West 134th street, Louise Troman, 475 Lenox avenue. The affairs have been called to the attention of the district attorney and an investigation is said to be under way.

DEMOCRATS HUNGRY FOR OFFICE, WAIT FOR JULY 1 Negro Clarks in Post Office and Treasury Departments Expect Dismissal LACK FRIEND TO INTERCEDE End of Final Year Leave Communion to Clarks and Those in No One's Position to Prevent Recognition—All Washington is Ample. Special to THE New York Age WASHINGTON, D. C., May 27—The Democratic dismal and demotion ax has been swing most ruthlessly in the Post Office Department, nearly all of the Negro employees have felt it or are slated to feel it by the beginning of the fiscal year, July 17. A number of the most efficient Negro clerks in the Post Office Department have been cut as much as $300 in their salary, some have been reduced to juniors, and some dismissed. The mere fact that their skin is not white is the real cause for demotion and dismissals. William Kennedy, William Shipen and Willie Wilkinson are among the most recent ones to suffer reduction in the Post Office Department, and know that the others are marked for retirement. The consternation that reigned among Negro government employees under the first Cleveland administration reigns here at present, and Negro employees are looking forward to July 1 with fear and trembling. In the Pension Office many dismissals and reductions are looked for in the new appropriation bill. In the Treasury Department uneasiness is felt because the dropping of many clerks is provided for in the appropriation bill, and the fear is felt that the Negro clerks are not being handled under the first Cleveland administration, when the political guilotine worked with matches precision and regularity for Negro employees, Fred R. Moore, then of the Treasury Department, serving immediately under Secretary of the Treasury Daniel Manning, imposed his unofficial and saved many from losing their positions. There is no one in the Treasury Department now in a position of vantage to save Negro employees from the wrath of bourbon democracy. Hungry Democrats Chimer Migrant and civil service rules are of no interest to Hungry Democrats are clamoring for patronage, and the long withheld political rewards are soon to be handed out to the faithful. The antipathy of this administration for the Negro is being exemplified in the many reductions already made, and the many promised for July 1. It is sad to observe with what great eminent employees here watch the approach of not only July 1 but of each tomorrow. The register of the treasury's office has already been cleaned of the most efficient Negro clerks by transfer to other inhouses. Under this administration a Negro Register, Assistant Register, one $1,800, one $1,000 and one $1,000 have their alimony paid with white men. The making of a lily-white office of the Register's office is almost completed. But the individual Negro news bureau of the Treasury Department is not sending out any correspondence telling of Negro dismissals and reductions. Miss Nellie Hurbert a very popular teacher in our public schools, has resigned and is soon to become the bride of Mr. Sye of New York City. Miss Hessie Anderson of Baltimore presents the Sunday the guest of Miss Gladia Towne of 1145 21st street Northwest.

URBAN LEAGUE STAFF HOLDS JOURNIT MEETING At a joint meeting of the several standing committees and the members of the staff of the National League on Urban Conditions Among Negroes, held in the office of the league at 110 West Fortieth street, on Friday, May 22, the workers rendered interesting and instructive reports of their accomplishments or milestones of March and the first twenty-one days of the month of May. The workers were questioned upon the different phases of their work, and practical suggestion were given by the members of the committees. The work of the league is being more generally and satisfactorily impressed upon the members of the community. Salient points were emphasized by the workers. Eva G. Burleigh, the traveler's aid, gave a detailed account of the number of boats met, the passengers interviewed and helped, and the nature of the relief or assistance rendered. The traveler's aid worker, meets coastwise steamers which bring from the southern cities to New York, a large number of directions of direction, a covered deck of friends or employment. Miss Burleigh reported eighty-two cases. Probation Work—Charles C. Allison, Jr. reported cases, handled by him as probation officer of the Court of General Sessions of New York County.

Big Brother Movement—Leslie L. Pollard is conducting the big brother brothers' league, having 152 little brothers overseeing. Since the first, of February only two little brothers have been returned to the Children's Court. The second been secured for nine little brothers and permanent employment for three. The Big Sister Work—Mrs. Halley B. Crainley, who directs this department of the league, has, aroused the big sisters to the necessity of taking a more personal interest in the girls' sports and social activities. A girl's club has been organized at Public School No. 28, which will foster social and literary activities. The club numbers thirty-seven, the ages ranging from 11 to 18 years. The Work in Harlem—John T. Clark, in charge of the housing bureau of the league, gave a symposium of the number of complaints regarding housing conditions in Harlem is increasing. The report presented, conclusive evidence that much can be done toward relieving embarrassing conditions, if the co-operation of the community can be assured. Plans are being worked out with the view to securing the support of many agencies, which have become a menace to public safety and morals. The Employment Bureau—The employment bureau, in charge of J. D. Jones, at 127, West 135th street, is conducting a vocational agency through which reliable skilled and unskilled workers find employment. Of thirty-four requests made to the league for help thirty were filled with competent employees. An effort is being made to establish the Elevator and Hallmark Association so real estate agents will recognize this organization when in contact with employers and porters. J. D. Jones is forming a club of high school boys for the purpose of directing and advising them in their studies. The Brooklyn Work.—The work of the league in Brooklyn is in charge of Paul P. Mowhay. Miss Carrietta W Owens is giving much attention to the big sister work in Brooklyn. Both of these workers give succient summaries of their activities during the past quarter. Child, welfare and the housing worker are the biggest workers. The nurse is lending an inorganic assistance in reporting and dealing with preventive cases. An effort is being made to establish a day nursery in Brooklyn to relieve an exceedingly alarming condition among the poorer class of people. Deficient ven- (Continued on Page 2.) Will Appear with Club at Manhattan Casino, June 4, in Modern Dance **Who Wants the Yankees - Perry's Practice.** The firm of Jones & White, 47 Neyns street, Brooklyn is carrying on a very moving business. The firm gives employment to ten men and hires additional help when business is rushed. The firm owns five horses used with two vans, two trucks and one express and creates a large automobile truck. The company holds contracts with the Anderson Co., the Jacob Doll & Sons, peace & Co. and Alphonso Smith, piano dealers, to move all pianos handled by them. In addition, it does trucking and business for several other large firms. Sportswood Jones, the senior partner and manager, first began business, on Hudson avenue in 1906 in a company with several other men. One partner contributed a horse and wagon, another contributed a horse and carriage, for while, but the others sold out one by one until there remained only Mr. Jones. At first the company engaged only in the trucking business, but the volume of work falling off, Mr. Jones had to look around for some way to increase the volume of work. He had contracted, with a large piano firm to move their pianos and wanted a partner. Mr. Jones got in touch with him and the present company of Jones & White was formed, retaining the Hudson avenue location. After the partnership was formed the firm moved to its present location, 47 Nevys street. Large Chapel for Funerals. Howard M.

He was located at 316 Gold street for four years, from the heart of the city to the suburbs Mr. Scott moved his place of business. At that time there were only a few colored people near the new location, but he set about to induce colored people to live in that section. His success in this direction is associated with number of colored residents in that locality. He has been in the present location three years and his business has steadily increased. During the past year seventy-five funerals were conducted. Mr. Scott's mother and father died when he was a young lad in his home boyhood, days he has had to look out for himself.

HARVARD GRADUATES HONOR IUDGE TERRELL Special to THE NEW YORK ACK WASHINGTON, D. C., May 27.—The colored Harvard graduates of this city, Baltimore and other places gave a smoker Friday evening, May 22, in honor of Judge Robert H. Terrell, who was recently confirmed by the United States, in an easy way. Most enjo- gainly in every way. Their expe- rience made talks made by those, present, all of whom were Harvard graduates and the Harvard spirit took on a renewed energy. There were several letters from graduates laudatory of the guest of the occasion and suggesting an annual gathering of Harvard men from different parts of the country that will have, for its purpose the maintenance of good fellowship as well as be a help to colored undergraduate at Harvard.

E. general conference adjourned Wednesday; night, May 20, two new bishops has been added to the roster and added to the council. Two, had been inducted into office. One of the old bishops had been superannuated and one had been retired from the bishopric without salary as a result of charges embracing malfeasance in office. The Rev. N. C. Cleaves, pastor of Styne Park C. M. E. Church, Columbia, S. C., and the Rev. R. A. Carter, pastor of Galloway, new bishops elected. The Rev. Mr. Cleaves had not before been a candidate for the high honors of the bishopric, but the manile could have been placed upon no more worthy shoulders. A pleasing fact in this connection is that the new Bishop Cleaves is a son-in-law of Bishop Isaac Lane (who is past the age limit) and that he superannuated), who should he ill-health. The Rev. Mr. Carter, is one of the brainstem men in the connection and has been prominently before the connection for bishopric honors for eight years. He probably would have been elevated to that office at Augusta, Ga., in 1910 but for the fact that through unfortunate marital disturbances he had for some time although it was thought at one time that Dr. Carter would secure a divorce the differences were reconciled and he and Mrs. Carter took up life together again. Of course, a divorce would have forever-barred Dr. Carter from attaining the goal of his ambition. The almost complete change in general officers' occasioned much surprise. The election brought on a bitter fight which was not alated until the last ballot was cast. The Rev J. C. Martin, of the head of the Book Concern, as the杰夫 Tenna, which carries supervision of the printing plant of the denomination; he is also the general treasurer of the church. Though an able man, Dr. Martin has not made the office pay a profit, and probably has for the last, its success. The Rev Caleb Calhoun of Pine Bluff, Mo., was re-elected secretary of the Enworth League. The other general officers are new men. The editorship of the Christian Index, published, by the book agent at Jackson, goes to the Rev. J. A. Hammond, editor of the Christian Index, succeeding the editor, A. J. Cobb, the best men in the denomination. The Rev. J. A. Starks of Missouri is the new editor of the Western Index, while the Rev. R. S. Stout of Arkansas was elected secretary of missions to succeed the governor of Georgia. The Rev. R. M. McKeeley succeeded as secretary of church extension by the Rev. James H. Moore of Mississippi. A general board of education was erased and the Rev. James A. Bray, former president of Miles Memorial college at Birmingham, Ala., was made its secretary. In the cast of Bishop George W. Stewart of Alabama, tried on charges which indicated the mishandling of money belonging to the Alabama conferences, on which account the bishop suspended a year ago, the general counsel of the church bishop without pay. As a bishop is elected to that office for life and can only be impeached for malfeasance in office, it is thought that the ex-bishop, in this action, placed without the pale of the church. Bishop Charles H. Phillips presided during the trials which he and interesting, but short of duration. The Rev. R. T. Brown, who up to four years ago was editor of the *Christian Index*, and who was that time a prominent and leading candidate for the bishopric, was again a candidate, and on the first ballot received 108 votes, leading to 104 votes. Doe received 104 and 99 respectively. Doe friends were wildly enthusiastic, as they thought the result of the ballot indicated that the long-ungrafted ambition of their champion would be at last gratified. Their enthusiasm was short-lived, for on the second ballot, while Brown's vote increased to 123. Carter followed with 121 and Cleaves to only 123. this ballot put an end to Dr. Brown's hopes for another four years. Much important legislation was enacted.

It has been decided to publish at Tuskégee Institute Post Office, Every-Other-Week for the present, a national farm paper to be known as THE NEGRO FARMER. It will be published in the interest of Negro landowners, tenant farmers and of those who employ Negro labor. There is no other strictly farm newspaper in the world devoted to the interest of Negro farmers. Many of the white farm newspapers enjoy huge circulations and there is no reason why a farm paper in the interest of Negroes should not prove equally successful. In fact, occupying an exclusive field it should enjoy a success far beyond that of the usual farm publication. It is proposed to circulate this paper among the 2,000,000 black farmers of the United States. The paper will be eight pages, of about the size of "The Country Gentleman." DR. BOOKER T.

While it will be an honor for any colored person to be asked to speak for the other members of his race to railroad officials on "Railroad Day," it is earnestly hoped that the occasion will not be made one for self-seeking. The matter at stake is too important. Let the churches, secret societies, business leagues, woman's clubs, etc., appoint whom they will, and let the ones so appointed serve to the best of their ability. It may be well to suggest that persons who hold respect of both races in the various communities be appointed in the committees—persons who are not given to intemperate speech and action. These will have greatest weight. In every case where a railroad has given or is giving colored people good service it will be best to mention this fact to the officials and thank them for it, at the same time calling attention to other directions in which improvements are desired. No organization of colored people should fail to appoint a representative to act with the others on #Railroad Day. To appoint such a delegate will mean much more for the race than talk about "Race Pride" or being "Race Men." We are depending upon our ministers, in a very large measure, to help keep the subject of "Railroad Day" before the people. The ministers can do a wonderful service in this direction. We have been going to, conventions as delegates for a number of years and we certainly must have some training in that direction by now. Let us see how well we can use that training in this matter of securing better accommodations for colored people on trains, in depots, and on street cars. RACE WAR IN A STRANGE LAND. The story comes from New Orleans, through the news columns of the Philadelphia Public Ledger, that one hundred Indians and sixty-four Negroes from the United States were killed, recently, in a race war, in the Montague River district of Guatemala. It appears that Clarence Williams' the Negro and an Indian engaged in a game of chance, the latter putting up his daughter Nazada as his 'stake.' He lost, and Williams took the girl, who was willing, to his shanty. Then came Zureello, a half-breed boss of a neighboring farm, who wanted Nazada as wife for his son, and offered Williams thirty pesos for the girl, which was refused. That is what is called Romance and War by the old poets, and fiction writers; but the point we would emphasize is, that, when free to do so, unawed by power and public opinion, the Black man will fight to protect or avenge his woman as others do it. TROUBLES OF DETECTIVE BURNS BURNS. We have no sympathy whatever in his troubles for Mr. William J. Burns, the detective with a national reputation, who is in the hottest port of water, in Atlanta, the COL. ROOSEVELT'S HOME-COMING. There was much that is pathetic in Col. Theodore Roosevelt's home coming from the wilds of Brazil last week, as contrasted with home-coming from Africa and Europe some three years ago, when he was received by a host of people in New York, whose myriad trampings and loud acclamations shook Broadway from the Battery to Central Park. The hearts of the populace beat loud for him; he was full of physical health, strength and mental vigor, with his political aspirations far from the eclipse. He was then the leader of the Republican party, whose management the forcibly took over at the Saratoga convention. He had not been beaten as the candidate of the Republican party for Governor of New York nor for President as the candidate of the Progressive party. The political future looked very bright for the Republican party and for Col. Roosevelt when he returned from Africa and Europe three years ago. When he returned from the Brazilian jungles last week, after an absence of seven months, he came as a very sick man, having lost thirty-five pounds of flesh, with boils and chills and fevers to worry him, and no great hosts to welcome him, home, with no certain political future before him, or the Progressive party he created, or the Republican party he did so much to put out of business. The New York Times says, very sympathetically: "The fact that ex-President Roosevelt returns to his country with health somewhat impaired and subject to some undeveloped possibilities of disability will be regretted by his fellow citizens. But it has its compensations. It serves to turn the attention of the public to the claims that Mr. Roosevelt has on the sympathy and the regard of the American people. It tends to soften whatever feeling of opposition may have been created by his strenuous political career. It recalls to our consideration the honorable and distinguished nature of the enterprise on which he embarked with such zeal and resolution and from which he has come back with added titles to respect and admiration." Very few people know of Col. Roosevelt except as a politician, and yet that is only one side of him. For the benefit of our readers we quote further from the Times, as follows: "The man Roosevelt we may all welcome heartily without reference to the differences of opinion that have arisen as to his policies and purposes in the political developments of the past half dozen years. The eager and acute student in varied fields, the hardy and intelligent worker in the rude life now almost a matter of history; the patient and faithful scholar, who has won world-wide recognition; the adventurous and skillful explorer who has united the scientist's prevision and imagination to the restless daring of the earliest of the class; the interpid sportsman; the ardent and devoted naturalist—in each and all of these roles Mr. Roosevelt has played well his part amid deserved applause, in which his countrymen take a proper and sincere pride. It is also permitted to us to reflect with gratification that in the region he has visited, in the Southern Republics of the United States, and in the South of the United States, of Mr. Roosevelt. Have been understood and justly appreciated. The citizens of these republics with whom he has associated are of a gallant stock in which often personal courage and intellectual force are closely united. The intimate acquaintance some of their leaders have been able to make with this representative North American cannot but serve to clarify their conception of our country." If Col. Roosevelt regains his physical health and gets active in politics, as his indications will be and the political conditions demand, there will be plenty of snap and go, where all is now decidedly slow and stupid. After all, 1916, when President Wilson is scheduled to leave the White House, is not so far away that we cannot look forward with a lively interest and a generous hope that the leaders of the Republican and Progressive parties may compose their differences, and again front unitedly the Democratic party, the common enemy of the Nation, that learns nothing and forgets nothing in the science of government "for the people by the people."

Millions of black and colored British subjects in the West Indies, Africa and the East Indies are interested in the question of their right to reside in any part of the British Empire, to engage in business and labor pursuits, and to be protected in their right to do so, as British white subjects are, and they will be more interested in the question in the years of the immediate future than they have been and now are: The question is of like importance and interest to the large and increasing number of British West Indians now residing in the United States. The following news dispatch, therefore, contains matter of world-wide interest and importance: "Vancouver, B. C. May 19.—Word has been received here that the steamer Komagata Maru, which saged occupancy from Shandong with 500 Hindus on board, is to reach Victoria on Friday of this week. The steamer was chartered especially by a wealthy Hindu with a view to testing the Canadian laws which have hitherto been invoked to bar Hindus. The arrival of the steamer is said to be awaited with considerable anxiety at Oranga. The hackers of the movement, it is said, have abundance of money and a vigorous effort will be made to force the Dominion to allow the British subjects from India to enjoy freely into Canada. "Orders have been sent by provincial authorities to the immigration authorities at Victoria not to allow the Hindus to land. Immigration officials say they can stop the entry of Hindus on two grounds. They will invite the order in Council, which was passed on April 19th prohibiting the entrance of artisans and laborers. If the Hindus endure this order by establishing that they are not artisans or laborers, the authorities will use the law which prohibits the entrance into Canada of Orientals except by direct passage from the country of their nativity. The present steamer, it is said, did not sail directly from India, but from Shanghai." The entire population of the British Empire is estimated to be 396,924,575, of whom only some 45,216,665 reside in Europe proper and are rated to be white persons; the question raised by the Canadian authorities, therefore, affects some 344,077,910 colored and black British subjects residing in the West Indies, the Australias, Asia and Africai The East Indians are the most numerous, being 300,000,000. How most safely to rule them has long been one of the most difficult and troublesome questions in British politics, the conquest of the country having been begun in 1757 and completed in 1877. Many of the people are very wealthy, and of late years many of them have developed great learning and inaugurated movements for better conditions of government and native opportunity that the British authorities consider it not politic nor safe to concede, independence being the ultimate purpose of the native people. There are in Africa 31,854,000 black and colored subjects, not including Egypt, and some 1,467,000 in the British West Indies. The black and colored subjects of Great Britain are ruled by the small white minority and taxed to the finest point for the benefit of the home government and not of the Colonies, which derive the smallest possible benefit and advantage from the government of their white overlords. In all the British colonies a restlessness has begun to manifest itself, as the result of modern education and inventions of all sorts, mainly steam navigation and electrical communication. Great and far-reaching, native movements and changes in government and taxation may be expected within the next fifty years, as the people have become too wise to submit longer tamely to alien rule and exploitation. The point the Hindus have determined to test in Canada is of world-wide importance and significance to the black and colored people of America, Asia and Africa. hottest city in the South, if not in the court. the country. An Atlanta dispatch tells the Mr. Burns undertook to undo the work of the courts and police authorities of Atlanta, that had tried and convicted Leo M. Frank the Jew, of murdering Mary Phagen, the factory girl, and to, convict James Conley the Negro of the crime. Mr. Burns succeeded in his purpose, as far as 'as loud talk and newspaper interviews could do it, but when the court demanded the evidence upon which he exculpated Frank and incipulated. Conley he had to admit that he had no evidence not already in possession of THE NEW YORK AGE, THURSDAY, MAY 28, 1914 An Atlanta dispatch tells the story as follows: Atlanta Ga., May 20—William J. Burns, a detective; Dan Lechon, representative of the Burns' Agency here, and C. E. Sears, manager of the agency together with seven Atlanta men in the employ of Burns in connection with the Mira Phragan case in which Lechon, M. Frank is under death sentence for murders, and Burns, the city ordinances regulating private detective agencies. This was announced to-day following a conference between the Special Committee of the Police Commission and City Attorney Mason. The City Attorney decided that the evidence was ample to convict Burns and his assistants. The penalty for violation is fine or imprisonment, or both, in direction of the court. It is understood Burns will be arrested when he returns to Atlanta. The Grand Jury also is investigating the methods of Burns and agents. So far, no payments will be pursued. In addition Burns and Lehon are under charges of contempt of court. It is a matter of business with Mr. Burns and not a question of color; we suppose; he was hired to save Frank, and in the effort to do so he tried to destroy Cohley and put himself in the criminal class. NATIONAL, PROHIBITION SIDEJACKED. Is there a demand for nationwide prohibition by the people, who vote, and who even the Democratic politicians affect to respect from six months before and one night after elections? Perhaps there, is, but the sentiment is not reflected by the Democratic majority, in the Congress. Congressman Hobson has reached the conclusion that he can gut no vote upon his pending resolution, providing for national prohibition, at this time, and not until the objections of State's rights sticklers can be met and overcome in a new or amended resolution. We do not believe in the greater part of the new legislation, adoption and proposed, in restraint of personal rights and business regulation and control, but the liquor traffic is so clearly a national parasite on health, wealth and morals that national prohibition of it becomes the only effective force that can destroy it; we deem it a duty, therefore, to promote sentiment which will demand national prohibition by appropriate legislation. WHY AFRICANS ARE NOT BARBARIANS We reproduce on this page a special article from Hearst's Atlanta Georgian headed, "Why Africans Are Not Barbarians," for two-fold, purpose. To show that the truth, like a drop of water working its way from the top of the mountain to the valley below, will find its way, even out of New York, through Georgia; and secondly, to state for the information of the readers of True Ace that archaeologists are digging out of the earth of Africa; and have done so, evidence that the Hamites played the first and the greatest part in the history of the world, after, if not before the flood; and to emphasize the vastness of the tragedy which came to the races of the Hamites in the accidental burning of the Library of Alexander by the carelessness of one of the soldiers of Julius Caesar. But the truth will out. Scholarship and science are no respecters of persons; what they seek and will find, if it is findable, is the truth of human history. When the buried cities of Asia and Africa have given up their hidden evidence the truth will be established. Ralph Waldo Emerson of declared that we are the heirs of all the ages; that is, we moderns. So we are; but we shall not come into full inheritance of its wisdom and achievements of the ages until justice shall be done the Semetic civilization of Asia and the Hamitic civilization of Africa, of which Egypt was the consummate flower, until scholarship and science have produced the evidence, as they are doing and have done, by their explorations. The intellectual Negro in the United States has a future he does not dream of and the world is unable to believe, because it decided onhand a long time ago that no good thing could come out of Africa. In this same connection, an editorial writer in the New York American for Sunday, November 16, says: "We are all builders; and most of our building is waste and selfishness. According to Herolotus, one hundred thousand men worked for twenty years to build the Pyramid of Cleops, which now looks mournfully around on a sandy waste. A hundred thousand men worked at least twenty years to build one pyramid—and there remains only an altar, meaning-less pile of stone, erected to the memory of a miserable little human insect whom accident placed in power. Many of our ablest men to-day are building as that pyramid was built, even more wastefully, piling up a monument of money that will last until the breath shall have left their body. One, wise man long ago calculated that the money and the labor agent on the Pyramid at Cleops would have built a great stone wall across the 1stthms of Suez and prevent the invasion of Egypt by savage tribes. The Arabs would not have succeeded in building an empire of Egypt, and, through Egypt, the history of all Europe, as well as Northern Africa, might have been changed. It is useless, however, to speculate on, what MIGHT have been. In the Ascent of Man from the depths of his Descent, the Pyramids of Cheops was as much a stepping stone as the Academies of Greece, the Forum of Rome and the Bodleian Libraries of Europe, and America. Our wise men know a great deal, but they cannot explain even why Cleopatra drew Mark Antony into the tower to die with her, when all was lost, or why Hannibal went to Damascus, instead of Carthage, to die, when Rome had made the world a desolation for him because he began the fight to desolate Rome that Carthage might rule the world.

A large gathering of the colored citizens of Raleigh took place in Mount Don't forget the fourth anniversary concert and dancefest of The Clio- Club. (Incorporated) at Manhattan Casino, Thursday evening, June 4. Recent discoveries of *Profenius Leo*. Frobenius, the famous German explorer and schaeologist, have proved that Africans are not the ignorant caribarians we have usually thought them to be. They prove that a high degree of civilization combined with high artistic ability has existed in various parts of Africa. The objects collected by Frobenius have been placed on exhibition in a museum in Berlin and have excited great interest by their artistic character. The professor points out that African art has a peculiar character because the life of the African is passed entirely indoors, whereas the mental life of the African is passed entirely outdoors. The objects are made directly from natural material without great artificial changes. This gives them a primitive character, but one thoroughly in harmony with the material treated. Each material has its special ornamentation. The ornamentation used upon wood is never the same as that used upon metal. The professor has come to the conclusion that the people of Central Africa had communication with the Ancient Greeks and with the prehistoric civilized people of Europe and Asia. He argues that from them we may learn much about these prehistoric races. He also interesting workshop at Bida, a large town of Western Central Africa. There were Negro workmen engaged in carving bars of crucified prepared bronze into curious and richly ornamented vases. The system of distributing the work was splendidly organized. The native arts have degenerated terribly since the arrival of large numbers of Europeans. The workmen have a natural ability of building and of the product of their own mines. Others copy the cheap and volgular vases and other objects brought from Europe. Bida, however, is one place where native art continues to flourish healthily. In the ancient ruined cities along the banks of the Benedy River Probenius found large cities of African art and a richly decorated leaden articles. Nothing remains of these industries in the locality to-day. Professor Probenius has found sculptures in stone and terra cotta in Central Africa presenting striking analogies with Greek art. He found ancient royal palaces of solid inasonry in similar style. These buildings had courtyards and galleries perfectly planned, surmounted by heavy roots and ornamented with the interior he adorned with sculptures and buildings found a Christian influence in the form of Byzantine decoration, crafted on the older local style. The further he went into the past the higher the civilization he discovered. He found that the Western coast of Africa, to-day regarded as the most barbarous part of the continent, possessed a future in ancient times. He believed that the country, in the absence of loss crude, and service type than at present. He believes that civilization originated here and gradually passed toward the north. The Northern races, forced by their climate, developed the civilization to the utmost or their own benefit, while the Southern races, tempted to idle tropical sun and a fertile soil, gradually abandoned themselves to idle dreaming.

We welcome you to not so much for what you are and what you do. A group of men and women together for an aid and benefit program. Master delighted to hold up an art example, as one who possesses and manifested by good works of love and mercy. My plea, the moment well be, that you not only possess the spirit of your work but you possess the spirit of your good work who showed mercy upon a compassion in tribulation and distress. Our law is taken from that passage of its pictures known as the parable of the Samaritan spoken by our blessed Samaritan a certain lawyer who asked him what he must do to inherit eternal life. The Master cited him to the law, the letter of which he had possessed, for he immediately answered by saying, "Thou shalt love the Lord the God with all thy heart and with all thy soul and all thy strength and with all the mind, and thy neighbor as yourself." After repeating this statement and who is my neighbor" In reply to this second query the Master put the parable which gives you your name. We should thank God tonight for the blessings which this parable teaches and for the opportunity we have of loving and showing mercy to our less fortunate brothers and sisters. You are to be congratulated upon being banded and my desire is to say something that he helped us to sing in your future labors. We are told of a certain man who on his way from Jerusalem to Jericho, fell into thieves and was wounded and robbed. We are not told who this travester was, whether he was Jew or Gentile, but these are some things in the narrative that lead us to reasonably conclude that he was Jew. The dishevelment from Jerusalem to Jericho was twenty-two miles and the road was the most direct passage. It was rugged, having been cut through a mountain of rocks and its crass afforded hiding places for robbers who were frequently there. So many dark deeds had been committed in this scene that it was called the War of Blood. This unfortunate event led to a robberer. The highways robbed him of his horses and left him in the pass to do. Two men passed by, a priest and a priest's officers in the temple, ministers of the Lord, who had been to Jerusalem, attending to their religious affairs. I were now returning to their home. Jericho. They saw the man in the condition, but passed him by like a friend. We are told that he did to-day, between whose loaves and charity there is a great gift. We want to analyze this act of beneficence that we may better understand it, and the meaning of the "Goeie and do likegise." It was born spirit of kindness and not of the kindness of the law, and the law did not say to this priest and bishop. If thou shalt see a man lying dead upon the highway, thou shalt not pass him by unheeded, but shall be baptized. They felt no responsibility and could not understand that their neighbor as thyself meant to pass him. Then God said to them, "Thou shalt or 'Thou shalt' be the law and the he loved and his neighbor in his heart the spirit of Jesus Christ and he helped the man in need, so he did what they really have to do to save themselves from examine yourselves in night, and your benevolence is only that that is formally prescribed by your heart it is a benevolence born of the spirit of Christ who went about helping every sufferer in the world. our observe that this man's man was not hindered by any race religion. He could He is a Jew and has no other difference and injuries in the Jews and thrust upon his pass on leaving the man but his nationality is swallowed in religion, the love of God in Many of our white brethren in this lesson. We are not hindered by intolerant pathway. This kind of be- repudiates denominationalism that denominationalism which is with selfishness and so narrow cannot work with others. We be Christians first, before we Metropolitan Baptist Presbyterian Episcopal.

He heeded the wounds of our sins by the shedding of His own precious blood. If there be a wounded man or woman here tonight I beg you to accept Jesus. He is ready and willing to save you. Let each one resolve to give Him better service in the coming year, and when our labors have ended we will have a happy admittance in the grand lodge, and there sit down not only with the good man of the text, but with the good Samaritans, from all nations, and best of all, with Jesus, and there rest from our labor and reap our reward throughout the ages to come.

Although been so WITH THE SMART SET AT T Missell WITH THE SMART SET AT THE LAFAYETTE THIS week the Smart Set Company, headed by S. Tutt Whitney, is appearing at the Lafayette Theatre in a new two-act musical comedy bearing the appellation, "The Wrong Mr. President," which is attracting large crowds at each performance, and the prevailing opinion among local theatregoers is that "The Wrong Mr. President" is all right. In concocting this musical production S. Tutt Whitney wrote and staged it, J. Homer Tutt and S. Tutt Whitney supplied the lyrics, while Trevor L. Corwell, Russell Smith, Lucky Roberts, J. Homer Tutt and S. Tutt Whitney jointly contributed the melodies. It has been many months since lauter has been so contagious in Harlem, for "The Wrong Mr. President" contains laughs galore, in which S. Tutt Whitney is the chief provocator. The burden of dispelling gloom and making the people temporarily forget about the sizzling atmosphere rests heavily upon Mr. Whitney, who goes about his work in his own original style. This young comedian is showing up more advantageously each year as an exponent of merriment, and there is every reason to believe that as time goes on his fame as a comedian will correspondingly increase. J. Homer Tutt portrays the role of *Dandy Dan*, which he does impressively, proving a capable foil for S. Tutt Whitney. Mr. Tutt is acquiring more dash and vim. requisite a successful straight man must possess. Careful attention has been paid by Mr. Tutt to wardrobe, which makes him the envy of all the boys in Harlem. He makes almost as many changes as Gaby, which is going some. Another member of the company, to give evidence of marked improvement is Blanche Thompson, who is convincing as Carmencita.Gomez. Miss Thompson, aside from her dramatic work, gives a good account of herself in several vocal selections. She should have at least one light number, as all her songs tend toward the operatic, thereby limiting the scope of her vocal activities. A song minus any attempt at the operatic or of the Spanish atmosphere would not be out of keeping. One of the best hits in the show is done by Russell Smith, as Monsieur La Fitz, a Haitian inventor. Mr. Smith has developed into a character actor of no little ability, and in portraying the role he shows consistency both in speech and dress. "Some Sweet Day," which is the most melodious song in the show, is effectively sung and staged. Next to S. Tutt Whitney as laugh manufacturer comes Hattie Akers, who participates in several humorous situations with the leading comedian. Their burlesque on Modern Dances is funny. Ethel Marshall as Mrs. J. B. D. Burymore, makes a fascinating widow. Ora Dunlap has emerged from the ranks of the chorus girl and is now doing lines with credit. Frank Jackson, tenor, has one song, "Those Days of Long Ago," assisted by chorus. Babe Brown has a strenuous time as Princess Anne, leader of society, acting and looking the part. Miss Brown is in good voice: There are less, than thirty people in the Smart Set Company, and yet they give a pleasing entertainment, which, is done because every member of the aggregation can sing and dance and most of them can act. The colored show business is to be rehabilitated only along the lines pursued by the Smart Set management. Large traveling shows are no longer regarded with favor, as the expense incurred for transportation usually eat up the profits, if any. . DRAMATICS AND ATHLETICS Although the Smart Set Company has been spending most of its time in the sunny South, the Tango and other society dances are presented, and the members of the company sing and dance up and down the aisles of the theatre the same as at the Winter Garden and other Broadway houses where musical shows hold sway. In fact, the show ends with the performers dancing the Tango in the audience. It would be a good idea for the composers to emulate the example of Broadway shows by paying less attention to ensemble numbers and operatic selections. Popular numbers carry our most successful musical shows of the day. C: Lucky Roberts, one of our most promising composers, is musical director of the company, and he renders valuable service at the piano. Owing to the successful engagement of the Smart Set Company at the Lafayette Theatre this week in "The Wrong Mr. President," arrangements have been made for the organization to remain another week in Harlem, opening Monday afternoon, June 1, in a new show, "The Mayor of Newtown," a musical comedy in three acts. Following is the cast of characters in "The Wrong Mr. President": Budd White, the Wrong Mr. President, S. Tutt Whitney. Dandy Dan, from Happy Land, J. Homer Tutt. Monieur Lo.

The country store feature has become so popular in Harlem that the Lafayette Theatre management has decided to hold it as usual Saturday evening in conjunction with the engagement of the Smart Set Company. A large number of valuable articles will be given away, and indications are that the country store on Saturday evening will be the biggest and most successful ever held in Harlem. Supday two big concepts will be given by the members of the Smart Set Company, and feature photo shows will be shown. Andrew Bishop topped an even and entertaining bill the second half of last week and the popular-young Harlemite surprised many of his friends by doing a good single turf. While his monologue could have been stronger, he went big in his songs. In his ast art number he was assisted by, six boy scouts, who marched from the audience on, the stage. Fanny Wise, in songs captivated at each performance. Miss Wise is singing better than any time during her career, and work shows that she is developing as an artist, Smith & Hatch won applause in comedy and song. Then there were Edith Merfield and Pals, who scored heavily in vocal selections; William Curtis and Co, in one of the best sketches ever produced at the Lafayette, and the Three Dreamers. ST. MARKS CHOIR. (BY L. H. WHITE.) The feature of the program at the second choral recital' of the choir of St. Mark's M. E. Church, West 53rd street, the Rev. W. H. Brooks, pastor, given Monday evening, May 25, was 'the delightful work of the Aldama Crescendo Glee Club, a body of male singers, members of the choir, in its rendition of the misere from Verdi's "Il Trovatore." The club was assisted by Miss Minnie Brown, sop'ano, who sang Leonora's "Ah che la morte" in fine voice with dramatic effect and understanding. The tenor solos were sung by Essex McCulloch and Walter Williams. The work of the men in the chorus, was superb. There was a wealth of tone and a richness of coloring which brought on the beauties of 'this wonderful work. E. Aldama Jackson, choir director' and organist, was at the organ. The program was well arranged and, except for the delay in setting the stage for the dramatic sketch, was carried out with facility and smoothness. Ten numbers were on the program but for some reason, not announced, three of the numbers were omitted. "My Soul is Atrist for God," that beautiful aria for tenor voice, in Gaul's Holy City and Denzas "If Thou Didst Love Me," which Mrs. Tapley was programmed to render, were not given. Tosti's exquisite little song, "Could I?" should have been omitted, also, rather than that it should have been rendered in the miseable maner which the audience had to endure. It is charitable, to suppose the soloist was hoarse, very hoarse. The opening number by the choir embraced a group of contrasting numbers. Cowen's bridal chorus from "The Rose Maiden," was the opening number, followed by "Mighty lak a Rose," words by Dunbat and music by Nevin, and "When Peaceful night," Mme. W. O. Terrell had the obligato solo in Rossini's "Our Country O'ee Land and Sea," and except for a slight lapse from the key in the final passages, she gave a finished and enjoyable rendition. Her manner, or rather, I should say, mannerism, characterized by the upward tilt of the head and looking skyward in certain moments of effort may be moderated with good effect. "Swing Low, Sweet Chariot," as arranged by Mr. Jackson, proved a radical departure from the accepted style of folk song and was sung by the choir with fine shading and splendid nuance. The obligato was taken by Mme. Mildred Bowers. The tendency to develop minor chords and strains in a barter shop, is to be deprecated. "Sing, smile, slumber" by Gounod, was sung by Mrs. Rebecca Hill, contralto. The final number comprised "O Lovely Night," the barcarole ole from "Tales of Hoffman," and "When to The Our Saviour Went," the magnificent choral from Wagner's Meistesinger, with organ accompaniment. Interpolated in the program was a sketch, "A Little Tentation" by Dunbar, arranged by Mrs. Lola Cherry, and presented by Mrs. E. Bland. Mrs. Martha Sasser, Mrs. Chery and Essex McCullough, "The Maniac," a dramatic reading was given by Miss Mary Holt. Prizes for selling the largest number of tickets were awarded as follows $10 in gold to Mrs. Chas. A. Chase $5 in gold to Mrs. M. Bowers; $2.50 in gold to Mrs. M. J. Taylor.

June 4 First Emanuel Church At the morning service of the First Emanuel Church last Sunday Pastor Bolden said that the seed thought of the Immanuel's universal rule and Kingdom had often been dropped by Him; but the reality of it fell upon dull ears and unbelieving minds. They heard Him but they did not understand His sayings. "I am the Way, the Truth and the Life; no man cometh unto e father-but by Me. I am the light of the world." If any man thirst let him come unto Me and drink. Come unto Me' all ye that weary and are heavy laden and will give the rest. And I, if I let them, will draw all men unto Me." These are unman, definite truths relative to His pride and sovereignty. A thoughtful study of His parables of what the Kingdom of Heaven was like reveals the fact that the central dominant, overruling person or truth in him is Himself. These stories show that our Lord not only lived in the vision of His universal dominion, but that He was conscious of its present and eternal reality. He brought this Kingdom into being when He came into this, world Ask God in His name, he asks the world, through Him, might be saved. At this time He takes His disciples into partnership business with Him. He promises to sustain and fellowship them. This great business committed to them for propagating and expanding this truth might have appeared to the handful of feeble human followers as an absurdity "but when they came to Him they were not allowed to lowed His orders and trusted His contract, their ability to do is guarantee because He is to be with them always. He calls them to a service they were not called or engaged by the people. He instructs them in His work. They are, not trained in, any human school; they are sent out of Him; they are not taking up the work in His name as a gift; they are sent out of Him; they are not tentative uncertain, subject to purchase, politics, evil doers, workers of iniquity, or the unreliable judgment or indiscretion of some unholy Bishop;s; they were sent to preach the good news that a righteous and loving God had set up a Kingdom in the hearts, of men. They are to teach that the historical Jesus, called Christ is alive, the King of God, is alive, the King of God, is to be taught to believing in His words and in His person that He manifests the reality of His presence in the mind of each believer. Time, distance, condition or race was not a consideration. These were no handicaps, they were universal servants with a universal remedy for a universal doctrine. And had one outstanding doctrine to preach the Fatherhood of God. They had one great social truth to teach, the brotherhood of man. They had one place of worship, the hearts of believers. They had one sign of grace, that was baptism, and this baptism is to be performed in the name of one Trinity, with equal blessings from the three in one. They had one object, eternal Life. We were not in the presence they were thrilled and vitalized. And so may we be sustained as we recognize the truth that the Lord of our life hath clothed Himself in us. The Sunday School convened at the usual hour. 2 p. m. Superintendent Humphrey conducted the opening exercises, assisted by Assistant Superintendent the Rev. Wm. Hogans. Before the classes took up the lesson study, Miss Dorothy Smalls read a very interesting paper on the subject of the Sunday School lesson. The Unprofitable School. The school was largely attended.
