Has Largest Circulation LINK JOHNSON TO RESIGN JULY 1ST Negro Democrats Rejoice in Hope of Long-deferred Recognition by Wilson BISHOP WALTERS QUIET Democrats from Several States Mentioned for the Place, but some Will Probably Be Eliminated because of Charges. VARDAMAN MAD WITH PRES. Wilson Told Him Office Was Conceded to Negroes—Democrats Have Lost Many Needed Negro Votes by Oppressive and Prejudiced Policies. WASHINGTON, D. C., June 24—President Wilson has requested the resignation of Henry Lincoln Johnson, recorder of deeds, and the same will take effect July 1. Although Senators Vardaman and Hoke Smith will oppose the confirmation of any Negro to succeed Johnson the colored Democrats are laying up their forces and will make strentuous efforts in behalf of the candidates. The candidates most often named are Howard of Harrisonburg, Pa., James A. Ross of Buffalo, and A. B. Cosey of Newark. Bishop Waters is having very little to say in the matter but it is understood that he favors the appointment of Dr. George C Clemente, editor and manager of the Star of Zion, Charlotte N. C., the official publication of the A. M. E. Zion connection. Charges Against Candidates: In this connection is as asserted that the names of Ross and Coty are presented to the President for appointment parties from New York and Buffalo will file charges, against them and endeavor to show reasons why they should not be appointed. It has not been made pride as to what the nature of the charges will be but it is said that if laid before the President whatever chance Ross and Cosey may have would be eliminated. The only recognition received by the Negro Democrats from Wilson is the appointment of George W. Buckner of Indiana as minister to Liberia to succeed Fred R. Moore, of THE New York City, who was appointed and confirmed in the closing days of Taft's administration. Adam Patterson of Oklahoma was appointed to succeed J. C. Napier as president of the treasury but lost his career when Vardhaman and Smith announced their opposition. Bishop Mallors and other Negro Democrats gave support to Judge R. H. Terrell, who was appointed to succeed himself as memorial judge in the District of Columbia, but the judge is a Taft Republican. The confirmation of Terrell gave ground for the hope that a Negro Democrat would succeed Link Johnson. Vardaman Mad. Vardaman is said to have consulted the President concerning the appointment of Johnson's successor and when informed that the office had virtually been promised to the Negro Democrats Vardaman left in a towering rage. It is understood also that President Wilson also indicated that the was not in sympathy with the Vardaman attitude of segregation, the general disfellowship of colored consular agents, custo-officials, prejudice in the railway system, and other evidences of hostility to Negro officeholders, have caused the Democrats to lose hundreds of Negro supporters whose votes will be needed in the forthcoming con-ference elections. June in Johnson has been the target of Democratic abuse and animosity year but has come unstyled through all. The so-called Dearie Fair Play Association of Washington tried hard to sur race anthem by having charges preferred white women attaches of the offices the attempt fell that. Other colored men to hold office of order of deeds were the late Frederick James the late C. H. J. Taylor, was named by Cleveland, James Monroe Trotter, Henry P. C. Dancy and John C.

JAMES CHURCH Negotiations are practically completed for the purchase of a plot of ground on West 138th street, between Lenox and Seventh avenues, on which will be erected a building for the St. James Presbyterian Church, the Rev. W R Lawton, pastor. The plot is on the south side of the street, 759.99.11 in dimension, and will be improved with a structure to cost $33,000. The present church of that congregation, located on West Fifth- first street, has been sold for $43,000 and the Presbytery of New York has agreed to add $40,000 to that sum, so that the congregation will be able to make the change in its location with out financial embarrassment.

J. and sung by the class with the class chister, Albert L. Pickering, also of Englewood, conducting. Mr. Jackson gave praise to football, using the game to show the need of team, work in community life as well as in the game. Of the sport itself, he said: In spite of its risks to its players we pronounce football "good." Why? Because success in the game for the individual player or for a team demands the same sort of qualities which we recognize as necessary for the corps out of that ideal with some of guard so jealously from prying eyes. Now a successful football player must have speed. He must be able to perform effectively and a minimum of effort. He must have a thorough knowledge of the rules; of his duties; and of possible situations in which he may play. small victory or defeat for his team. Moreover, he must know the drama and the difficulties of his play, always be ready and willing to assist the other fellow. That is teamwork. Last but not least, he must be able to stick; to play the game through, against odds, against all huddleups; to oddness if need be while he still plays the game. These men must also be aware of the诱惑, the quality, the white and red striving to attain for use a million wives, the unwieldy administration, the hard work, the lack of success, us just a track hurler. The other men must also be aware of the success of Louis Le Jordan at Atlanta University and the Rev James W. Wright, a pastor of the Congregational Church in Havelock, Miss.

WOULD KEEP NEGROES OUT OF PUBLIC PARK Special to THE NEW YORK ACE MEMPHIS, Tenn., June 23.—Sometime ago the Park Commission agreed to allow the colored citizens of the town to visit one day in each week, on Tuesday, the Overton Park and Zoo. This granting, as a concession and privilege of what ought be, a right has stirred the waves of opposition in certain organizations of white citizens and caused protests to be made that the Negro is undesirable and disorderly. All of the white people do not take this view, however it is shown by the following letter written by B. M. Roddy, cashier of the Solvent Savings Bank and Trust Co., and published in the News-Scimeters in which the Park Commission is defended and some stubborn facts set forth in behalf of the Negro citizens of Memphis: Editor The News-Scimatar: The colored people of Memphis, who represent almost one-half of the entire population of this great city, deploy the Negro as a symbol of the highest recognition as citizens and taxpayers, there has to follow a series of indignation meetings among the clubs of the city—1 refer especially to the attitude of the Evergreen club in connection with the arrest of a Negro who has to visit Overton Park and the Zoo on Tuesday, one day out of seven. I am in a position to know that the people visiting this public park on the day set apart for them are orderly, are well behaved, and are quiet. They represent the very best element of the role in Memphis (the taxpayers). Two of their number pay taxes on over two hundred thousand hundreds. 100,000 of them pay taxes on over ten thousand ($100,000) dollars worth of property (park taxes, too). These people have their taxes and children with them, many of them drive out in their own cars. Of course the males have to go on the street cars. . . . 53 Here is the rub, here is to be found the real reason for this club's action. The cars are crowded: naturally so—the street railway company should put in the parks, by either race. It is just as disagreeable to ride on the Madison, the Saturdays or the Beane avenue lines every day either for the white people or the colored people, and in most cases for both. The cars are crowded with colored passengers, so many of the white patrons will push their away through this crowd to get out at the rear door, which is against the law. You can so this done every day. No one will be in the front door, even when they occupy the entire car. This, and all other clubs should protest against the street railway company and not against the Negro, who is trying to be contemptible, while receiving all of his rights as a taxpayer and a citizen. There are other alien races among us, they go to the park every day. The Chihuahman, no protest, the Hindoo, no protest, these are the earth wars and they are being treated as they should be treated like men and they are men. They ride in either end of the car however, are armed with permits from the hiring officials, for their will. We will not allow them to run. Now they better commit among the Negroes not in mischief with the skill of all cars, they continue or all other alien races in the country seize them. Now all of the above must be combined. They are a direct descendant of the older comment that served you so patiently and so well they are making progress they are saving money they areearing families that are serving God. So this matter from a standpoint of right and justice, self to all taxpayers "Win to the public parks or zoo, as long as you pay the park tax, and the officers will protect your children. Twenty thousand of them need fresh air, need playgrounds, in order to cut down the death rate and right the city. The city commonses fair and the organizations should uphold them and not worry them with such committee meetings as they hope to have on Tuesday. Those men were elected by the people to govern this city and all good citizens should support and encourage them. 16 M RODDY. SUP CHAN GREENE TO SPECIAL TO THE NEW YORK TOWN Augusta, Ga., June 25—Because of indignities suffered while traveling over the L. & N.

CREATE FUND TO BUILD RURAL SCHOOL HOUSE8 Rosenwald of Chicago Will Duplicate All Money Raised For Country Schools Dr. Washington Reported Results from Use of Money Given by Rosenwald, for a Trial of the Project—Chicago Philanthropist Will Go Ahead on Large Scale Special to THE NEW YORK ACK Chicago, Ill., June 23—Dr. Booker T. Washington, of the Tuskegee Normal and Industrial Institute, visited Chicago for the purpose of reporting to Julius Rosenwald, the Chicago philanthropist, regarding the use that has been made of certain monies appropriated by Mr. Rosenwald a short while ago for the purpose of building schoolhouses in some of the rural districts of the South. In each case the people of the community were asked to do as much as they could toward the building of the schoolhouse by making cash contributions or contributions in materials of labor. The report made by Dr. Washington was so satisfactory that Mr. Rosenwald has decided to go ahead with the experiment on a large scale, and has agreed to duplicate dollar for dollar whatever sum is raised in any rural district in the South for schoolhouse buildings. The experiment which Dr. Washington has been carrying out has been kept very quiet for the reason that Mr. Rosenwald was anxious to test out the experiment before making any public announcement regarding it. One of the crying needs in the South is good schoolhouses in the country districts where a majority of our people live. Until this need is met the masses of our people will in a large measure remain in ignorance. The securing of these schoolhouses through the generosity of the Mr. Rosenwald marks along step forward in the advancement of our race. Any number of communities in the South will it is expected, within a few months meet the conditions demanded by this gift. Every time a schoolhouse is built in one of these country communities it will bring new hope and confidence to the people. NEGRO ELIMINATED BY ALABAMA REPUBLICANS Special to Tue Nov 19 BUSINESS MAJOR, 23—The action of the Negro in state convention on committee at Birmingham on Wednesday, June 11, eliminated the Negro from participation in the state convention by held July 22 means that severen counties in the state will have no representation in the convention. It is believed that the action was taken to simulate the war for alliance of the old-time Republicans with the Progressives and the disaffirmed Democrats. Major P. D. Barker national committeeman, and a few other white Republicans proclaimed against the action but absence of the Negro committeemen of the First District, W. C. Allen and Frank Free, from the meeting made the white men re-read that it was useless to fight for people whose own representatives were not sufficiently interested to be present. The vote on the resolution eliminating the Negro was carried by a majority of the poll resulting 22 to 15 but if the Negro committeemen had been present it is thought the vote could easily have been changed. There will be no Negro in the state convention but it is believed that this action will ultimately fail of accomplishing the purpose intended. National Committee Barker called attention to the fact that if the national committee had acted on the same idea in reducing southern representation, Alabama would have had only one delegate to represent the whole state at the next national convention.

FINED FOR DISCRIMINATION Failed to Provide Equal Accommodations for Colored and White Passengers Railroad Fined $500 in Kentucky Court because Jim Crow Law, Requiring Equal Service, Was Violated White Business Men of Community Joined with Negroes in Fight for Better Certifications on Railroads and Appeared on Witnesses in Case. FROM PROSECUTOR SMITH. To the Editor of The Age: The principle involved in these prosecutions is whether or not a colored man shall be forced to receive a half pound for the price of a pound, and whether a dollar in the hands of a black man is worth any less than a dollar in the hands of a white man. It is just as wrong to give a colored man inferior transportation for the maximum fare as it would be to give him half-valued merchandise for the top price. I mean to push these prosecutions against all the railroads in my district until the evil is abated, without regard to whose ox is gored. If these cases are not sufficient, I will indict them again. --- Very truly yours, D. P. SMITH, Commonwealth Attorney, Sixth Judicial District, Kentucky. Special to THE NEW YORK AGE. HORNISVILL KY. June 23—It took the jury in the case against the Louisville and Nashville Railroad for failure to furnish proper accommodations for its colored passengers just fifteen minutes on Wednesday. June 17, to return a verdict of guilty but fair, corporation and assess against it a fine of $500. The jury was composed entirely of white men largely farmers, upon whom strentions, pressure was applied by the counsel for the railroad in their arguments that the Negroes were using this case as an entering wedge to secure social equality between the races, and all authorities agree that the verdict is the greatest victory achieved by the colored people of the South in defense of their rights in forty years. The railroads contested every much of the land, bringing into action some of the best legal talent in the State to defend them from the indictment, and these lawyers went to extremes in appealing to the prejudices of the jury. But their efforts were without avail. The last element of the white people, including nearly every business man in Hopkinsville and the leading farmers in nearby territory surrounding gave their moral and legal support to their most well-supported by Phil H. Brown, editor of *The Saturday Vogue*. Formerly assistant director of publicity at the Republican National Committee, and Judge John Folk, for some time judge of one of the Kentucky circuit districts. The case find the support of all of the colored people of Christian county. Railroads Inducted. Personal appraisal were made by Judge Feldh and Mr. Hronau in the management of the Railroad Commission in no results accrued. At the last year of Christian County Circuit Court, matter was brought to the attention of Commonwealth Avenue, North, who directed the grade prosecution to make an investigation and resulted in the indictment of the L. & N Railroad Company in its county of Knox in two counts and the T. Court case. There is little doubt that the verdict against the L. & N will be sustained in the court of appeals to which it will be carried. The law directing that the accommodations provided for the colored passengers shall be copied in every respect to those set apart for the white people as so specific that the best legal authorities in Kentucky have given it as their opinion that the verdict will stand. Equal accommodations is the saving clause of the Jim Crow laws in all of the Southern States, the Supreme Court of the United States having validated these laws upon that clause alone, holding that so long as a Negro received accommodation equal to that given by the white people in the matter of coaches and other conveniences that there existed no discrimination. That the railroads in the South have utterly ignored this provision of the law is notorious, and this decision will have a far-reaching effect, at least to the extent of securing better accommodations, if not the equal as standardized by those enjoyed by the white people; As was brought out in the trial here, few of the railroads in the South afford separate, toilet rooms for men and women in the Jim Crow cars, both sexes being forced to use the toilets in common. Since the indictments have been returned in the local court, one of the railroads has established one train conditions that approach equal accommodations, securing a new car with smoking compartment and separate toilet rooms, and assurances are given that the work of improving the service for the colored people will be pressed forward, but the prosecution distrusts this apparent disposition to do belated justice to the colored people and press the prosecutions to the end. The pleasant feature of the light here is that many white people are engaged in the action to secure equal accommodations for colored people as Negroes, a number of them appearing as witnesses for the prosecution of the railroad. Too much credit cannot be given Commonwealth Attorney Denny P. Smith for the brilliant fight he has made and is making to secure the rights of the colored people. He has allowed no matter of opposing sentiment to deter him from pressing the matter to its final consummation.

This not be --- DEMOCRATIC GREED FOR PLACE AND CASH. The Democratic party was so greedy for place, for offices for their "faithful unwashed and unterrified", that, during the short time it has been in power, it has demoralized the civil service at home and abroad by the wholesale displacement of Republicans who had made their positions secure, under successive Republican Administrations by competitive examinations. Everywhere a Republican head has been found it has been chopped off, or, a decapitation sign placed opposite the name of it on the payrolls. This is the more scandalous because the Democratic party was pledged to respect the Civil Service law, and because it had become a principle of the Republican party not to make politics but efficiency the test of preferment in the public service. The Jacksonian theory, that, to the victors belongs the spoils of office," now rules in the public service of the Nation, and a scandalous and demoralizing rule it is. The extravagance of the greedy Democrats in grabbing Federal offices, protected by law, for their partisans is only one of many phases of Democratic had faith. The rock-ribbed Philadelphia Press, discussing the River and Harbor Bill, and the creation of new rivers and creeks to be assisted, says: "The Democratic convention that named Mr. Wilson for the Presidency took a strong position upon the matter of economy in the use of the money of the Government. Its platform demanded that a stop be put at once all appropriations that were not absolutely necessary. We denounce the profligate waste of the money wring from the people by oppressive taxation. thundered against the economy. It was penned by the hand of a Bryan and approved by the eye of a Wilson. It appears now, however, that the economy plank meant just the game as the plank in regard to free canal tolls, and meant no more. Already it has gone to the attic of forgetfulness and disuse, there to join several of its leading colleagues of the 1912 platform. The Democratic Congress is exceeding in its appropriations any of its Republic successors. Salaries are being raised soldier new deprivations; authorized, former appropriations increased, and a steady advance made in expenditure all along the line. The soft-pedal that was promised to be put on the appropriating of money is painfully absent." If the national affairs continue to go from bad to worse, as they have been doing during the past two years, the Nation will have paid dearly for four years of Southern Democratic rule at Washington when President Wilson retires to private life March 4, 1917. IF WE COULD BURY OUR "KNOCKERS." A news item of great local interest to those concerned and with special significance to all "knockers" and to colored ones in particular, is contained in the following paragraph: PATTERSON, N. J. June 17—With several thousand people gathered around to witness the ceremonies, the Board of Trade here this afternoon buried a huge thirty-foot hammer, symbolic of the "knocking" Paterson has received both from people in the city and from the outside. The act marked the beginning of the process, together with the hammer were buried three stuffed dummies labeled "Chronic knockers." The obsequies were preceded by a procession which took in the principal streets of the business section. Five hundred members of the Board of Trade were in line. Each carried a sign of some kind with a message to boost the city. The hammer was made of wood covered with canvas. Its head bore this lettered injunction; "Quit knocking and boost!" On the handle were the words: THE VOICE OF THE PEOPLE Free speech is one of the things mankind in Christian countries have had to fight harder to get and to hold fast than any other upon which the large liberties we enjoy depend, theoretically or in fact, because until that was won the fight for religious freedom and no taxation without representation were impossible of achievement. In the fight for freedom of speech the pathetic figure of the blind master poet and dreamer John Milton looms as large as that of Martin Luther for religious freedom and of Oliver Cromwell for the right of the people to a proper share of responsibility in the administration of the government of which they are the most considerable and interested part. The pamphlet, the weekly newspapers, the magazines monthly and the daily newspapers have not only grown with the centuries with the growth of larger human freedom, but they have led the way and sustained the contention, and are strongest, most powerful to-day in those countries, where such larger freedom is the most insistent fact in the life and the government of the people. This is distinctively and precisely true of Christian lands, and not true of heathen and pagan lands. It is a fact worth remembering, that the agitation of the abolition of slavery in the United States, beginning in 1816, was marked by persistent efforts of the slave power to throttle freedom of speech everywhere, but especially in the newspapers, and that legislation, State and Federal, was resorted to with a high hand to accomplish the purpose, with imprisonment of editors and wrecking of their newspaper and other property as malicious features of the propagandism. But the slave power failed in its deadly purpose because truth was free to combat it and was too strong to be gagged. But in our own times the lawless spirits of the South have wrecked Negro newspapers at Memphis, Wilmington, Montgomery and Tampa, and driven their editors and publishers into exile, where they died among strangers or are still living far from home and kindred. The honest newspaper may well be regarded as the voice of the people; but to find an honest newspaper nowadays, one untranmelled by prejudices or subservient to some special interest, and therefore false to individual and collective rights and interests of the whole people, is a rare thing indeed. It is the crowning glory of the Negro newspapers that they were called into being by the imperilled rights of the people and have justified their creations and creators by standing firmly for, the right, in good report and bad, in poverty and alliance. The traitors who have been false, who have sold out to the enemy in order to pay expenses, have been few indeed, and need hardly be counted in the reckoning. Our able contemporary, the Petersburg Colored Virginian, speaking upon the subject under consideration, says: "The New York Age deplores the lack of appreciation among the colored people for the things which tend to make the newspaper a potent factor in our national life: Speaking of the wildish tendency of the great majority of Afro-Americans to contine themselves within the narrowest intellectual bounds, it says: "Then, again, the disposition of the race to be satisfied with little else of news than church, church and fraternal doings, with jitter subordination of the larger news and opinion movements of the world, together with its literary, artistic and scientific tendencies, achievements and discoveries, indicates a narrowness of intellectual outlook which has not broadened with the years as we had hoped it would. Even our religious publications, which should contain, for the most part, helpful discussions by our wisest and best churchmen and laymen, of the most important issues in the church and in the personal opinion and the small goings and doings of bishops and pastors. We need to value the newspapers as we have, and pay for them. THE Agz strives hard to be as a mirror that reflects the best and highest of current news and opinion. There is too much of the personal note in all we do and say. We need to take on a larger view of the panoramic life of our times. "The Ace is right. The greatest drawback to the development of Afro-American journalism as the real reflector of public opinion as far as our life in America is concerned is this demoralizing appetite for gossip. No Negro newspaper in the country goes greater lengths to secure the news of vital interest to the African-American public than does the Central African Republic, in handlining this matter we present the facts as they are, catering not to the likes or dislikes of the white race or the black. Yet many of our people pay more promptly and more money for a white newspaper whose columns contain nothing of more importance to the Negro race than light, inconsequential small-talk of a religious or personal nature which appeals to the curiosity, rather than the intellect. However when it comes to a show-down it is up to the Negro newspaper to determine the Negro people, and in spite of its poor support it is usually on the job." There should be a concerted effort on the part of colored editors to so educate the colored reading public that it will desire fuller discussion of the world's thought and work and less of its personal, social and scandalous title-tattle. "The hammer—burge it." William I. When Count White injured by train Bryant delivered the funeral oration, to the Portsmouth Peace Conference in which he urged the development of a community spirit. Mr. Roosevelt in his democratic effusiveness. Mr. Roosevelt If we could bury all the colored "knockers" in one grave what a blessing it would be to the colored people. We have them of three sorts, and they do much to cross-lock race effort in everything that is proposed to be done. We single them out by number: 1. "Oh, he's no good! What does he know? We can't follow him anywhere." 2. "There's nothing in that idea but failure. You can't tell me. I know." 3. "Now, the race isn't ready to do that, and if it was, the white folks won't stand for it." Kill all the colored people who, make up the members of these three groups, convince them of their error, and that confidence in the individual and the race and the thing proposed make for success all of the time, and we should have a new baptism of life. THE MAKING OF A LANGUAGE The making of a language by the first and by the last people we know about has always been a long and tedious process; many languages, and perhaps the oldest, seeming not to have got far beyond the original starting point, or, to have reached their perihelion and declined to where we find them. The English language, one of the strongest and most numerous in its words, is a development well within the Christian era, being in the time of the Norman conquest much of a jargon. It has borrowed freely from all languages, especially the dead Greek and Latin ones, and adapted the words appropriated to domestic uses. Some of the strongest words in the language were once the names of persons whipped into verbs to describe the thing the person was most infamous or famous for. The New York Times calls attention to the fact that, as an outcome of the present war of baseball magnates, "to marsans" has come to mean one who breaks his contract, because the player of that name has done so; along with many others. The Times says: "Other names of distinguished or notorious persons on the moral-immoral, the most speech, especially those of Capt. Baycott and Dr. Guilloin. When Count Witte journeyed by train to the Portsmouth Peace Conference he was said to out-roosevelt Roosevelt in his democratic effusiveness. Mr. Roosevelt was accused the other day of a propensity to disqualify the United States, and the verb to pinochle has come to mean "to disqualify" politics. Is in this hasty review we have any verbs derived in a similar way, our readers will be quick to prompt us." The English language has all of the elements of a universal vehicle of communication between persons, and it is difficult to get into a place so isolated that a person speaking it cannot find some one else who does, or who cannot make himself understood by those who do not. The words that the average person uses and understands are woefully limited in number, how much so few persons ever stop to consider it is the few learned men of the race only who are masters of all the words of the language they speak, and the best of them require to have a standard dictionary at hand to verify, sometimes a given meaning they may attach to a given word. COL. ROOSEVELT OUT OF THE CAMPAIGN. The leaders of the, the Progressive party in New York State have made a strong effort to get Col. Roosevelt to stand for the Governorship of New York, this year, and there has been much uncertainty about his determination in the matter; although it is well understood that he thinks that such candidacy at this time would prejudice his Presidential aspirations in 1916, while a failure to be elected, if he should consent to be a candidate, might serve to eliminate him from political preferment for all future time. Those who want to get the Colonel out of the way desire that he should run and get beaten, while those who want to have him strong for the running in, 1916 desire him to lay low and wait. 'Just before leaving England for the United States last week he had his throat examined by a famous specialist, and it was given out by the Colonel himself that the condition of it was such that he would be unable to take part in the campaign' this Fall, nor for several months to come. His throat bothered him before he went to Brazil and was aggravated by the hardships he underwent during his months of exploration in the Brazilian jungles. Col. Roosevelt is a wonderful man, and he has done wonderful things; but, considering the active and intense life he has led, he is no longer young, and he is also human, and his physical powers are liable to impairment like those of the hugest machine, like a Mogul engine, for example, which has often to be repaired as to weakened parts and after awhile has to be sent to the scrap pile. Let the Colonel have the needed rest, and we shall see about 1916. THE DEMOCRATIC HONEY- THE DEMOCRATIC HONEYMOON OVER. Is the Democratic honeymoon over, and has it come face to face with the stern fact that ruling the Nation is no work of children but of grown men? At a meeting of the Republican Club of New York City last week former Attorney General George W. Wickersham said as much, and more. He says the Presidential election is only two years old, and everybody knows there could be no question of its result "if the Republican party were not divided." Again he says: "Col. Roosevelt is President Wilson's best asset, and I do not fear to say it publicly." We cannot win on negations. We must have a strong affirmative policy and we must put forward a man." There is no doubt about that what the Republican party needs is a man. Far from considering himself as President Wilson's best asset Col. Roosevelt considers that he is Col. Roosevelt's best asset, and it is not an easy matter to change his mind, to convince him of his error. As long as the Republican party remains divided into two factions, of which Col. Roosevelt is the reactionary and disturbing one, he must be regarded as the best asset of President Wilson and the incompetent Democratic party. It is a shame and disgrace to Col. Roosevelt that it should be so, and it should be his first and supreme business to do what he can to change the condition and to help restore the Republican party to power. THE TROUBLES OF BURNS. Mr. William J. Burns and the Burns Detective Agency, continue to have troubles that are real, as the outcome of his efforts to save the neck of Leo Frank, the Jew from the hungman at the expense of that of James Conley, the Negro, in the Mary Phagan murder case, in Atlanta. Mr. Burns is an associate member of the International Association of Police Chiefs, and they threaten to take away from him his membership, at the Grand Rapids meeting, because of his attitude in the Phagan case, and "his actions in other cases as well," said one chief. "He has press-agented himself into popularity and he has tried his cases in the newspapers before the court had a chance at them." Give any of them rope enough and they will hang themselves; and the funny thing about it in every case is that not one of them will believe it possible, until he has done it. Honesty is the best asset that a detective or detective agent can have, but they, like the policies, do not always think and act upon that fact. It is not the business of the police and detectives to manufacture crime for criminals and suspects, but to prevent them from committing it and searching them out when they do it. In a nearby city, when a young white woman was brutally murdered, not long ago, the police put every black and colored person on the "suspect list" and hounded them in season and out. The criminal is still at large. The same thing is often done in New York. It should not be done: EDITORIAL NOTES. "Preachers in politics" is a burning question again. In the hot season cold water is the safest and cheapest drink. The war in Mexico, so far as we are concerned, is bloodless, but mighty costly in money. New York City is also one of the best and most popular summer resorts in the country. Ireland has real Home Rule at last, with a Parliament at Dublin, and all that. So glad. What has become of "Chief Sam" and his ghostly, aye, ghastly, African Colonization phantasm? Gov. Cole Blease, of South Carolina, appears to have "cooled off" after exploding over the Mexican mix-up. Senator Elliott Root, of New York, may be drafted to succeed himself in the Federal Senate, where the Republican party needs him. The San Domingo-outs are having another little revolution among themselves. Revolutions are very costly, but they will have them. If you don't pay him he will be unable to run through all of the business affairs of mankind. "Owe no man anything," the Scriptures say. The young graduate lives life bravely because he does not know life. It is very good that he does not know it in advance, as he would often falter and wilt before he faces it. Now, then, Liberia has complained to our State Department that Commissioner Page, who has charge of Liberian custom receipts for the benefit of its foreign bondholders, has exceeded his powers. Next. The Governor of New York, if a Republican big enough to be elected next November, should be the logical candidate for President of the Republican party in 1916. So far, nothing big enough has been mentioned. After President Wilson disposes of President Huerta of Mexico, if he ever does, he will have the Carranza constitutionalists to deal with, as they demand that the Mexicans be left with a free-hand to set up their own government. President Wilson has slowly lost influence with the Nation since he entered the White House, and if the loss continues the assurance that he will to private life after the Presidential elections in 1916 may be accepted as foregone. The Washington Sun says that if Congressman "Dies of Texas will stop long enough to find out why he was baptised in the name of Dies he will know a great many things now hidden from his intelligence." So he will. And Dies is a good name to come from Texas with. Many spots are reported to have made their appearance on the face of the sun and whose men predict, therefrom troubling times. What harder, and more troubling times do we need than we have had during the past fourteen years? We hope the spots mean no such bad thing. Colonel Roosevelt announces that he "will make a hot fight" for the Progressive candidates and politics this year in many states, so distributing himself and his speechmaking as to touch the people everywhere. Much fun is expected by those who don't take kindly to dullness in politics. "Strike my dog, strike me!" is one of the standing rules for trouble with most owners. Up in Livermore Falls, Maitland owns a cool dog whose owner had not paid the dog tax. The owner then shot the constable and then himself. That was an expensive dog. Rich man have many troubles, just as do poor men. Mr. John D. Rockefeller, one of the richest men on the earth, is said to be worth $900,000,000, but his stomach is weak and he can only eat what his doctor orders, and he can't sleep in peace because the labor he has created his life. so that he has to have a meal about his person and home all of the time. Congressman Díes (ygt a name) of Texas, is the sort of creature "the best white people of the South" and "the best people of the West" says: "I am following the President and the Secretary of State in what they are doing in Mexico. I do not know what that is, but I am following just the same. A wooden Indian was the better and safer representative in Congress than such a jolly-fish as Díes. There was, great slaughter of birds and animals by the Roosevelt exploruring party in Brazil, which has just returned to this country. The naturalists have party report that they have 2,100 bird species, 300 animals. Science must be promoted, they say, by such slaughter, but the spilling of blood for any cause has cost mankind prodigiously, simply because it is prohibited by their spiritual law. Senator Elliom Root says he will not stand for re-election in the senatorial campaign this summer. His term will expire March 4. 1915. He also says he is too old to stand for the presidency Mr. Root is one of the oldest Republican statesmen living and has been a Republican ranki ranki the federal senate. We have always approved of him, but have always appreciated his great abilities. Tastes differ as widely about what shall be eaten as persons do in character. The Washington Sun says, "Ham and cabbage are loud-smelling dumplings, they stick longer to the ribs than any other twenty-cent meal." So they do. But in a large city, where people live in big tenement houses, each with many flats, ham and cabbage are considered very easy to form, their virtues are counted up in the same way. "Loud people" are rated the same way. Don't be "loud." --- Strikes on a large scale are reported from all parts of the country. The dull times and high cost of living do not deter ware-carners from striking; for comparatively trivial causes. Ten thou- sons of the company's plant at Pittsburgh have been on strike for some ten days in the effort to force some labor union demands on the company which it should have been easy to settle by arbitration if the demands were reasonable and the orders follow in the wake of most strikes, because the strikers refuse to allow others who want to work to do so. It has always seemed funny to many people who work with George W. Perkins, a treasurer at Morgan & Co. as a trust magnate, should have been selected and continued as chairman of the Executive Committee of the Progressive party. Amos, one of the Pinchott twins, who are very close to Colonel Roosevelt, has begun a nation-wide campaign to drive out Mr. Perkins; but, as the Times says in another matter, "until the Progressive party returns from Spain," because where Colonel Roosevelt is at a given time, there also is the Progressive party. The two hang together, and never separately. Has Babylon Fallen? To the Editor of *The Albany Journal*, M. F. Conference at Albany, N. Y., asked the question, "Has Iabylon Fallen?" referring to the condition of the church at Iabylon, the Shields is, pastor. Iabylon has not fallen and it is now in better condition than it has been in three years. The Shields is turned for his year. The church building was burned down two years before he came here but the debris had not been removed. The former pastor and people had worshipped in the Ebenezer Baptist Church building, but the Iabists would not continue in operation so the Shields had no provision. The town hall was used for one Sunday's meeting, then the new pastor issued books to members and made a house-to-house canvas for funds. The church received from the insurance companies after the, fire more than once, and used the mother to pay miscellaneous standing bills which could have been held over. An ice-house was purchased for the place placed on the site and had neither doors or anything else. It had been in that condition for two years but Mr. De Shields and members raised enough money to build in condition for services. All the staff of the congregation has done what it could, together with the other servants, leaving the burden to a few willing ones for the winter. In spite of that the pastor raised over $300 and the people, the church open all the time. We went to and from New York and many Sundays never received one cent for the support of his wife and two daughters, received, including car fare, only $143. The carried to conference 75 per cent. of his dollar money and conference claims, using his own money because the people were out of work and had no money to pay. He delivered no credit for the stargrace he and the faithful members had made, because he did not bring as much money as his propleurosza if it was said, he did not. He asked if I knew? We answer. No, a thing that is down already cannot fall. But the work has risen. Most of the few colored people in Babylon so to the churches of Jerusalem grew poor, they do the best they can. The pastor, to help the work, is engaged in another work, the care of his family. He has been prescribing twenty years, has paid bills of long duration and bought property for the church. He has been placed on his record in any conference. $^{a}$ We, with the pastor, will do the best we can this year to succeed and if the proper condition and credit the people are so interested in the condition of Babylon and the Lothair A. M. E. Church will stand and is not a grapple for A. M. E. ministers. $^{b}$ H. FLOYD YOUNGSTOWN. O.

This title can appropriately be given to Leubrie Hill's Darktown Follies company in the three-act musical comedy, "My Friend from Kentucky," playing now at the Bijou Theatre, Broadway, near 30th street. The show went with a rush when it was put on at the Lafayette in Harlem last November, but in its present shape, after being pruned of dead wood and whipped into more effective efforts, it is no exaggeration to say that the company has developed a punch which was lacking in its earlier appearances. Some of the songs in the original production are missing, but not missed. One improvement to be specially commented upon is in the ensemble singing. At the Lafayette the chorus was poorly balanced, there being a decided deficiency in the volume of bone produced by the male singers. That defect has been remedied. Bases and tempos have been judiciously added and there is great improvement in the development of the different voices in the chorus. Evident attention has been paid to the detail of grouping the voices, and best of all is the fact that in getting new material, or in getting rid of old material, the qualification of singing ability has been considered. Rheumatics, and other things, made it necessary for John Leubrie Hill to be absent from the cast this week, and his place was taken, but not filled, by Anthony Byrd. Mr. Byrd is a capable actor in many roles, and the auditor who had never seen Hill himself portray Mandy Lee found much in Byrd's work that was enjoyable. It does not reflect on Anthony to say that Hill is missed, because in John's interpretation of Mandy you must remember there is all of a creator's sympathy and understanding. Ewon Robinson, playing her original character, Miss Lucinda Langtree, is as dainty and attractive as can be, and when she sang about the kind of a man she wanted some of the men in the audience were trying to discover whether or not they fitted her requirements. Sallie Byrd plays the part of *Makom Langtree*, a jolly Washington widow. The widow's solo, as in the original production, is omitted, but Mrs. Byrd's work in the chorus singing is way above par. She has a sweet and melodious voice and its carrying quality is such that without apparent effort it easily soars away above the other sopranos and takes the high notes with ease. Ada Guy is an acceptable addition to the cast, taking the part of *Lady Hanson*, formerly played by Pauline Parker. The dancing has always been a feature of the Follies production, and it is no less so now than formerly. The girls in the company, pretty in features, shapely in form, are limber-legged and supple, and the boys of the company ably second their efforts. Eddie Rector and Toots Davis put over some new kinks in buck dancing that made the audience sit up and take notice. Johnny Peters, with Ethel Williams, Ruth Cherry, Erma Baptist and Mae Brown, gives a great number. James Vaughn, the musical director, is an able second to Hill, and his ability finds ample scope in handling the music produced by Hill's genius. Clarence Logan, the business manager, is one of the hardest workers attached to the show, and it is largely due to his efforts that the Darktown Follies secured a Broadway engagement. The failure of the abbreviated production to make good at Hammerstein's, thus cutting to one week what would otherwise have been an indefinite run, caused Logan to have to hustle. Securing the two weeks' booking for the Bijou saved the company from a period of idleness and kept it on Broadway. Leaving the Bijou Saturday the company will open Monday, June 29, at the Olympic, 143 East 14th street, for two weeks. All roads will lead to the Manhattan Casino, 155th street and Eighth avenue, on Monday night, June 29, for that famous aggregation, THE FROGS, will hold forth at that place and time. And it will be some event, too, for THE FROGS have secured for this one night's performance a complete circus—with main tent, side shows, free shows, freaks, marvels, concessions and barkers. Arabian steeds, Shetland ponies, educated dogs, trained monkeys, rare and curious animals and monstrosities will be seen, and besides THE FROGS themselves will be on hand in new creations, each appearing in an original and unique form. Erudite Alex Roges, a leading spirit in the organization, has furnished me the following historical brief of the conception of the FROGS' organization: "Representative members of the colored theatrical profession organized the society known as THE FROGS in 1908. For the first time I am explaining one of the many reasons the organization had for naming itself THE FROGS. In the history of the Greek drama we find that Aristophanes was the greatest comedian of his age. He was born '456 B. C.' He was a lyricist, playwright, actor and producer, and it is conceded that of many plays 'The Frogs' was his best effort. The central idea of the play is based on the belief that the gods understood fun, as well, if not better, than men. Famous characters in "The Frogs" were Bacchus, his servant Xanthias, and Aeacylus, Aeschylus and Euripides. Then there was a great frog chorus to which was given the most telling lines in the play. "Our organization has arranged its entertainments along the lines of comedy held down by the master Aristophanes, and they are constructed to make the widest possible appeal. The forthcoming entertainment has been arranged with every attention to real circus detail. THE FROGS have engaged Prof. Sterrett and his complete circus, which is the same as was engaged by Harry Payne Whitney for the Society Circus at Westclierster last summer." THEATRICAL JOTTINGS.

DRAMATICS AND ATHLETICS --- ABIG SENSATION PICTURE BIGBILL WEEK WEEK HARRISON LAFAYETTE CHILDREN ADMITTED FREE AT LAFAYETTE THEATRE. Business continues good at the Lafayette Theatre, despite the warm weather, and there is every indication that this favorable condition will exist throughout the summer. Messrs. Morganstern & Walton announce that commencing this week, all children under twelve years of age, accompanied by parents or guardians, will be admitted to matinees free. As the motion pictures are of educational value and the acts shown are clean and refined, this arrangement will provide hundred of children an opportunity for wholesome amusement during vacation without charge. The management has set aside every Friday as Benefit Day, when a portion of the proceeds from matinee and evening performances will be turned over to some worthy cause. On Friday, July 10, a benefit-performance will be given in aid of the Fresh Air-Fund, conducted yearly by the Urban League, which takes hundreds of colored boys to Montclair, N. J., during the summer. Friday evening, June 26, Major Wendell, of the Boy Scouts, will be presented with a sword. The presentation will be attended by colored and white Boy Scouts of Greater New York. The country store craze among Harlem theatregoers rivals the Modern Dance craze, which is evidenced by the large crowds in attendance at the Lafayette Theatre on Tuesday and Saturday evenings. Tuesday evenings is known as "Furniture Night," and Saturday evening as "Jewelry Night." There is no theatre in New York which is giving as many valuable presents on one evening as the Lafayette. The bill presented the first half of William Jones and Goldie Cisco, Edward Parker and Miss Anna Holley of the Anderson Dancing Class, John Powell and Miss Marion Gant, and Eddie Bolden and Miss Edith Brimard. The first prize was awarded to Jones and Miss Cisco, and the second to Parker and Miss Holley. The judges were Charley Parker, J. Hoeman Woods, Earl Thomas and Lewis Coles. Although it was advertised that the contestants would be exclusively colored there were about twenty-five white couples who competed for a special prize offered by the management. It was awarded to Harder and Mills. The New Amsterdam orchestra furnished music for the dancing and the patrons took advantage to the full extent of the splendid dancing floor of the Palace. Charles H. Anderson was the master of ceremonies and floor manager. A. O. W. TANGO : DANCE The Fun Tan Club, one of the leading society organizations of Newark, N.J., will contribute one of the special features at the Alda Overton Walker Tango Picnic at Manhattan Casino. Tango Picnic will be danced by a group of indies and gentlemen from the Fun Tan Club, composed of Miss Kate E. Baxter, Miss Grace F. Baxter, Miss Emma F. Thomas, Miss Lillian A. Johnson, J. LeRoy Baxter, Ernest S. Baxter, Fred A. Thomas and Jon Collins. This dance was originated by the Newark baker who has trained the Newarkites. It will be a decided novelty. One hundred dollars in gold will be given to charity. A provision for patrons holding general admission tickets will be made by placing five hundred chairs on the main floor. Dr. Louis Baxter will be the master of ceremonies and H. Vodery will be musical director. For the convenience of patrons down town, tickets will be on sale at the office of The New York Age, 247 West 46th street, phone Bryant 3815. Tickets can be secured uptown at 107 West 132nd street; at Odea's, 41 West 135th street; at 135 West 135th street, and at 17 West 135th street.

The Smart Set Athletic Club of Brooklyn made a great showing at the meet under the auspices of the Metropolitan Association of the Amateur Athletic Union, connected to design by the champion of the year. The Smart Set is the only colored club eligible to compete in these championship events. The games were held at Travers Island on grounds owned by the New York Athletic Club. Four hundred athletes competed. Smart Sot had nine men entered scoring the third highest number of points, and winning, two championships. Edward Jones defeated a fast field of sprinters in the 100-yard dash, and is the 100 yard champion of the Metropolitan district. the week was full of merit and generally pronounced good. Every act was given a big hand. "The Real Estate Agent," a sketch in which Harrison Stewart, Charles H. Gilpin, Blanche Deas and Viola Stewart figure, made such a favorable impression that it has been held over for the second half. The sketch is punctuated by many laughs. Each member of the case can act, and Harrison Stewart is seen to advantage as a comedian. The elimination of the two songs after the second performance was a wise step, as the musical numbers retarded the action of the skit. The Owen Sisters' and Leonard Harper scored heavily at each performance in songs, dancing and dialogue. The new addition to the act, Leonard Harper, dancer of promise. This act gets stronger and stronger. Johnson & Rogers showed Harlem theatregoers why they were such a big hit recently over the Loew Circuit. They shine as dancers and have a strong finish. Brown & Hodges, well known sketch artists, are entertaining with their pictures, and made many new friends. Barney & Davis and the Anderson Twins also made good. S. H. Dudley and Abbie Mitchell & Will Marion Cook were held over the second half of last week, repeating their success of the first half. The Blackbury Four went big at each performance and were compelled to respond to numerous encores. Others on the bill were Steve Jennings, the Canawa Sisters and Wood and Co. Jully John Laskins, the Reese Brothers Africanders, will be on the bill the second half of this week. Harry M. Marlin, the crack hurdler, in a conventional manner captured the 220-yard low hurdle event, and the champion low hurdler of the Metropolitan district. The other boys of Smart Set who competed were George R. Ralston, track manager; Auron Morris, track captain; Walter Powd, William Murray; Charles Thompson, Frank L. Kiddikian, Joseph P. whom made a creditable showing and demonstrated that they are men of championship calibre. Lincoln Stare Lose to Firemen. At Bronx Oval Sunday the Lincoln Stars played two games. The New York Fire Department team handed the Stars a defeat in the first game to the tune of 3 to 1. Ball and Thompson did the pitching for the Stars while Lynch, who was in the New England League last season, was in the box for the fire laddies. Lynch is now a probationary fireman.

Four thousand baseball fans were at Dillon Park, New Rochelle, Sunday afternoon to see the New York-Colored Giants play the New Rochelle team. Just as the umpire was about to start the game, William J. Doyle, sheriff of Westchester County, flanked by five deputies, walked out on the diamond and put a stop to the proceedings. The shehriff, stated that a preacher, whose church was three miles from the grounds, had made a complaint that the games were disturbing the peace of the Sabbath. No admission fee had been charged, and the shehriff's attention was called to the fact that teams were playing-in-Port-Chester-and White Plains, but he would not change and the people were finally induced to leave the grounds.

First Emanuel Church Sunday was a day that will be long remembered in the minds of those who attended the various services of the First Emanuel Church. It might be called Consecration Day, as the services were the first held in their own building, 105 West 130th street. Pastor Bolden in his discourse said that the Holy Spirit makes known the truth of Immanuelism. It took up its residence in the heart and life of believers on the day of Pentecost. This day in Christendom is called Whit Sunday. According to record, it was about ten days after the Ascension of our Lord that the cloven tongues of fire come as the rushing of a mighty wind in the room upon the waiting company of believers. As our Lord had promised, they have now received power—spiritual power, a gift which would enable them to understand the mind and the things of the spiritual personal power, an energy within, regenerating and purifying their nature, moral power, a force in them making for righteousness. They were now equipped with holy dynamics for a holy universal service. The church and the world was, there in embryo that day, and He came into them. The church was one—a body, a unity. "Not an ag- gregation of units, or a mere union of congregations, still less a congress of sects. It was and ever is a living body drawing its vital, essence from Christ and quickened by the spirit that flows from-Him and permeates its organs and members." It is He, the spirit, who is here among us that gathers in fresh members and welds them into the body of Christ our Lord. It is He dwelling within them that causes them to grow into the fulness which makes a perfect man. As our Lord in body was a mediator between God the Father, and man, so the Holy Spirit in our bodies is the mentor between us and the Son of God. As the Son spoke always of and glorified the Father, so the Holy Spirit would have us speak of and glorify the Son. Sunday School convened at 2 p. m. Superintendent Humphrey made a talk and a splendid program was rendered by the children in charge of Miss M. Johnson and Mrs. S. C. Jackson. At 3 p.m. Pastor Bolden, assisted by the Rev.
