The Autumn Exposition and Amusement Festival to be held at Manhattan Casino, 155th street and 8th avenue, September 28 to October 2, will be the best opportunity ever offered colored men and women to show thousands of people—colored or white—the numerous worthy things have done and are doing; also the many worthwhile things they are striving to do.
Here is how YOU can help!
Hardly a day passes but something is heard worth while having been done by some of our people; some invention not generally known to have been the work of a colored person; some interesting book of song, written or composed by one of us. This same book or song

THE WORLD'S MOST FEMINIST MUSEUM
Is positively and undisputably one of the World's Greatest Physical Culture experts. The only athlete on earth moving and controlling an involuntary muscle. He shows absolute control of every superficial muscle of the human body, presenting spectacular feats of strength with catlike quickness. He will positively appear EVERY NIGHT of the Exposi- tion, in his strength. What the pr An avalanche whirlwind of Tribune. A lithe brothe buoyant on Messenger.

and even the majority of those who bought may not have known that the writer was colored. In every locality in this country someone knows of some colored person who has done, is doing or is striving to do something that is a credit to the race.
If you or any of your friends know of any colored man, woman or child in your town or in any town, who has invented something, written something in story, song or play; of someone who, by skillful or scientific farming, has produced wonderful corn, potatoes, melons, fruit, cotton, etc.; of someone who has bred and raised exceptional or out-of-the-ordinary live stock (in cases where it is impracticable to exhibit the thing itself, photographs of the exhibit with the history, etc., of the producer will be shown).
We would like to have a large and handsome frame of Negro heroes with their histories and a
may have had possibly a good sale, record of their deeds. We would like to have excellent photographs of the exterior and interior of the Negro banks, also photos of the officers and directors. The above applies to the insurance companies, wholesale houses and any and all uncommonly successful Negro businesses. If you know of someone who has an interesting article of any kind which they are putting on the market or intend putting on the market, we
can help them or any other legitimate and worthy venture that can be helped by proper publicity. Persons who exhibit at the Autumn Exposition and Amusement Festival, or who express their earnest intention of so doing, will get the benefit of advertising throughout the entire country.

What the press says about him:
An avalanche of strength and whirlwind of science.—Savannah Tribune.
A lithe bronze Hercules from the buoyant outer air.—Charleston Messenger.
A miniature Adonis of unparalleled physical perfection.—Jacksonville Times-Union.
POSITIVE FACTS.
Concerning the Big Autumn Exposition and Amusement Festival.
It opens at Manhattan Casino on Monday night, September 28, and runs five days and nights to, and incluting October 2.
J.
Many are the questions that have been asked concerning this big undertaking. We have heard some people say that they did not know that it was a colored people's affair. It is all colored. Promoted by and for the benefit of colored people. Some of the largest white firms in and around New York are going to advertise and exhibit, which is only natural. This is proof positive that there are a few big white firms who consider the Colored people a part of the "buying public" To begin with, the following colored charitable institutions will benefit from this affair:
Howard Orphanage, Brooklyn
Home For Aged Colored People
Brooklyn
White Rose Mission
Hope Day Nursery

A NEW POETESS.
Among the exhibits of Negro authors at the Autumn Exposition and Festival will be the works of Mrs. Effie T. Battle of Okolona, Miss., wife of Wallace A. Battle, president of Okolona Industrial School. Her work is little known in this section, although the Springfield Republ.can has published some of it.
Her last booklet of poems is entitled "Gleanings from Dixie Land," and it is the forerunner of a larger and more ambitious volume which is in the course of prepara-
tion. Editor Bowles of the Springfield Republican said of the poems: "Mrs. Battle has an individual gift of melody and the ability to express much fine appeal. She is at her best as a poet of Nature."
During her summer vacation Mrs. Battle gave a number of recitals. At the meetings of the Mississippi State Federation of Colored Women's Clubs, she read a poem. "To Women," which is a splendid example of her literary ability. The poem is as follows:
Woman, frail, tho mighty creature
Fairest handiwork of God.
What a mission Heaven gave thee!
Oh, what power is in thy hands!
Sin and sorrow, gloom and sadness,
Hie away at thy commands!
Thou canst hold the world enchanted
With the power of thy spell;
Thou canst make thy sphere a heaven
Or can change it into hell.
In thine armis the tiny infant.
THE MASTER OF THE WORLD
On whose face there is no guile,
Finds its store of joy and gladness
In the sweetness of thy smile.
Later on in childhood's trials
'Tis the mother he doth seek;
All the clouds around him vanish
When unto him she doth speak.
As he nears the walks of manhood,
In the parting of the way.
'Tis the loving mother's counsel
Comes to him as guide and stay.
What is home without the woman?
What is man without her aid?
What's the school without her presence?
By her help the church is made.
You will find her by the bedside
Of the outcast, racked with pain,
Soothing all her woes and sorrows,
Bidding her take hope again.
In the time when war's dark mantle
Throws its shadow over the land,
How the wounded, dying soldier
Greets the touch of her warm hand!
How the sailor, home returning,
From his rough and rugged sea,
Soon forgets the storms and dangers
When her kind face he doth see!
Not a place in all the wide world,
From the helvel to the throne,
But a woman's hand is needed,
But a woman's voice is known!
Not a crisis, not an event,
But the woman plays her part;
Plays it with a gentle firmness
That doth win the world's great heart.
On then, woman, on thy mission;
Drive out sorrow, banish pain;
Cheer the lonely, raise the fallen;
Bid the world take hope again!
Carry sunshine, scatter gladness
Everywhere thy feet may plod;

NEGRO ATHLETES AT BALTIMORE
(By George W. Littimore)
The colored athletes who competed in the National Amateur Athletic Union Junior and Senior Championships at Homeward Field, Baltimore, Md., September 11 and 12, against the best athletes of the country, made a brilliant and remarkable showing. There was added significance from the fact that it was the first time in the history of athletics in Baltimore that joint competition between white and colored athletes had been witnessed. Steady progress is being made in athletics by the colored boy and the Smart Set Athletic Club of Brooklyn has played an important role. In the Baltimore championships' this club was represented by J. Edwin Jones, Frank J. Jenklas, Aaron Morris and Walter E. Fowe, team, with George W. Lattimore and George R. Ralston in charge. J. Edwin Jones was the first colored boy to toe the line, which was in the third heat of the 100-yard dash. He won his heat in 'declusive style in 19 2/5 seconds. In the final heat Jones after a creditable effort finished fourth,

scoring the first, point for the Smart Set. Jones scored third place in the 220-yard dash, which added two more points to his credit. Walter E. Powe's over anxiety cost him the half mile junior championship title. In the first quarter mile he outran his field.
Harry M. Martin, the Metropolitan 220-yard junior hurdle champion, in the 220 yard low hurdle event, run the fastest heat of the day, covering the distance in 25 4/5 seconds, within two seconds of the championship record, which was considered remarkable in that the race was run during a drizzling rain. In the final heat Martin repeated his wonderful performance, winning the event and giving him the title of National 220-yard Junior Hurdle Champion.
In the one mile run, Frank L. Jenkins the national interscholastic two mile champion, who is merely a schoolboy, ran a creditable race, finishing in fifth position. Aaron Morris in the five mile run, Friday kept pace with the leaders for four miles but was forced to retire on account of pain from a recent injury. However, the gameness of the little fellow manifested itself, when the following day he toed the mark in the heartbreaking senior five

milo run, and covered the fall route, placing fifth.
On Saturday In the senior championships appeared three other colored lads, W. Randolph Granger, Jr., of Dartmouth College and Irish American A. C.; Irving T. Howe of Boston, Mass.; and James Ravenell of the St. Christopher Club.
The half mil event showed the greatest aggregation of half milers ever gotten together in this country. Granger ran second in this event.
In the absence of Howard P. Drew, Irving T. Howe of Boston ably defended the sprint titles. According to the dopesters the laurels in the short dashes were expected to go to Alvah T. Meyer of the Irish American, who has always been Drew's closest rival. Howe uncoached a big surprise by running over his field in the 220-yard dash, and finished second to Loomis in the century dash in sensational style, in which event he would also have been proclaimed the winner but for a slow start.
Jimmy Ravenell of the St. Christopher Club was taken ill just previous to starting in the 100-yard dash, and in consequence did not run anywhere near to his form.
For the first time in this country a 440-yard hurdle race was put on, in which Harry M. Martin competed. To say the least this is a gruelling race, and it was a great surprise when Martin and Schnaf pushed Meanix of the Boston A. A. to a new record for the distance and within 1 second of the world's record. Martin has unquestionably stamped himself as one of the greatest hurdlers in this country.
APPRENTICESHIP FOR NEGRO MACHINISTS
TUSKEGEE INSTITUTE, Ala., Sept. 8. The advent of masonery as the great motive force in the industrial strides of the century opens up a new avenue to young colored men, particularly in the South. There is, open for them now not only places as machinists but also as steam engineers. For the present their work as engineers will be confined to stationary engines, but there is no bound to their work as general machinists. Already in many of the big plants of the South colored men are filling places as machinists and drawing blattering salaries, but the main trouble is that young colored men, except in rare instances, do not have an opportunity, to serve an apprenticeship for, machine
work, and have fewer opportunities to pursue a course of training that will fit them to step in and fill a responsible place from the junip.
Tuskegee Institute, as far back as twenty years ago, began what is now one of the finest machinery training schools in the South. Year after year it has turned out a class of young men all of whom have found abundant work in the best machine shops in the South. Many of them have risen to highly responsible positions and are drawing fine salaries. The machine shop at Tuskegee provides a course second hardly to any school in the South, and is equipped with the very latest machine tools, all driven by an Atlass steam engine.
Fifty different machines outside of the
shops are in daily use; these include the agricultural machinery, the laundry machinery, dairy machinery, machinery in the several trades divisions, steam pumps, the big press. All repairing in the mechanical equipment of the institution is done by students in the machine shops. In the steam engineering course students have eleven different engines, seven steam pumps, twelve steam boilers, a complete water works system, with miles and miles of piping, and every apparatus of a water works system at their disposal. The theory is taught by one of the most competent machinists in the South.
All over the country there is a big de-
mand for practical electricians, who can actually do with the wire what the book says can be done with the wire. Electricians get big salaries; and now that everywhere electricity is becoming a necessity they get steady work. Colored electricians are not numerous, but where prospered and built up independent husband put efficiency into it, they have prospered and built up independent businesses. In the South electrical engineering is comparatively a new trade, but it is an important trade and offers an opening for young colored men most flattering in its prospects. The electrical school of Tuskegee Institute is planned to meet the demand for practical electricians. Having a three years course identical with the best electrical schools in the country, its equipment is such as to afford the stu-
B
ident a practical knowledge of electricity and its application hard to gain anywhere else in the South. The Institution planned the course with the idea of intang young men not only to carry on electrical work theselves but to be able to contract for work in conjunction with the Negro architect and the general Negro contractor. The course covers work in bell and annunciation wiring, line construction, interior wiring, care of are lamps, direct current dynamos/ and motors, central station practice, telephoning, and alternating currents and apparatus.
The equipment consists of one 50 K. W. and one 150 K. W. motorcycle alternators, with an electric city and marble switchboard for each; one 1750 K. W.

revolving field; three phase alternator with exciter and marble switchboard. These are used for lighting the grounds and buildings of the school. Also, there are shunt and compound wound exciters, shunt motor, three-phase motors, a photometer, voltmeters, ammeters, recording K. W. H. meter; are and incandescent lamps and laboratory reformers and rheostats. This equipment is used along with the theory of applied electricity.
Varied Billiards This Season.
The billiard season will open at the Franklin Billiard Academy, October 1. Oscar Rich, president and F. A. Stev-
M.

Players wishing to enter any of these games are requested to send their name and address to the headquarters, the Lenox avenue. Players now open for match games are Mr. Dosewell, at 14-2 or straight billiards, A. Richardson at three cushion or 14-2 balk line, Mr. Strad'r at pocket billiards, J. E. Clark at baseball pocket billiards.

Bitter References Made to Ben Davis, Link Johnson and Will Houston in Grand Master's Annual Address.
PRINTED BALLOTS ISSUED
Morris so Sure of His Control of the Machinery of the B. M. C. in its Boston Meeting, His Ticket Was Printed and Distributed to His Supporters.
Special to The New York Am.
Boston, Mass., Sept. 23. After a tiresome all-night session the seventeenth meeting of the Blenennial Movable Committee of Odd Fellows came to an end at the People's Temple Saturday morning. The next session will be held in Washington, D. C.
The law limiting the tenure of grand master to two successive terms, of two years each was repealed, so that Edward H. Morris of, Chicago could again be elected. So sure were the Morris, forces of their ability to win, that they had printed tickets bearing the names of the candidates in the hands of each leader of a Morris delegation long before the balloting began.
The closing session was spent in the consideration of proposed amendments to the laws of the order and the reading of the report of the committee, on the grand master's address, as well as those of other committees. The law creating the supreme court of the order was repealed and the $500 annual salary attached to the office of the attorney general was abolished.
Grand Master Attacked Ben Davis.
Next to the sensation caused by the attack Grand Master Morris-made on Benjamin J. Davis of Georgia in his biennial address was-the.report of the committee on grand master's address in which Benjamin Davis, Henry Lincoln Johnson and William L. Houston were scored. Davis and Johnson made heated replies to the addresses.
While the Morris clan outvoted their opponents at every stage, the hold that Ben Davis has upon the Odd Fellows of Georgia was seen all during the week. Out of 317 votes from that State only eleven voted for the re-election of Morris. The Georgians gave unanimous support to Needham, Julius Johnson, A. T. Shirley, W. H. Mixon, J. H. Miller and James H. Johnson,candidates of the Morris regime.
The sixty votes of the New York detention were given to the machine forces and it succeeded in having W.-David Brown, the well-known undertaker of New York City, elected to succeed Julius Johnson of Baltimore as grand treasurer. When the result of the balloting was announced the winners were congratulated by their opponents. "We said Benjamin I. David" but there will be a different tale to tell when we assemble (Continued on Page 5.)

MORRIS CONTINUES TO DOMINATE BAPTISTS
Strong Spirit of Protest Against Steamroller Method of Election
CONVENTION'S HEAVY DEBT
Owas Thousands of Dollars to Morris and other Officers for Salary, and Would Be Unable to Pay if Required—Call for Reform in Methods.
Special to The New York Arm
PHILADELPHIA, Pa., Sept. 23—The session of the National Baptist Convention which closed in this city on Monday night was marked by a strong effort on the part of many of the strongest men of the convention to overthrow the rule and dominating influence of the president, Dr. E. C. Morris. The effort was not successful in this session, but the number of men with courage to stand by their conviction had increased from two in Houston, Texas, two years ago, to 241 in Philadelphia. These men stood, and asked to be counted in opposition to the method enforced by Morris in steam-rolling the convention in the election of officers.
Following the president's able annual address the motion to thank him was so amended as to suspend the rules and re-elect the president. Pandemonium reigned for more than an hour, but Morris was declared elected. It is said by many of the strongest and most influential men of the body that the work is impaired and the convention's usefulness weakened because of the abuses in the convention and the reckless determination of the Morris element to rule and dominate its affairs.

PERRY, LOVE CRAZED,
KILLS NORA REDDICK
Miss Nora, Reddick, 19 years old, a native of Brunswick, Ga., was brutally murdered Thursday, September 17, about noon, at the door of an apartment at 193 West 134th street, where she was visiting at the time. She formerly lived in the apartment, but a week before the homicide, had moved to a-room at 115 West 134th street. The crime was committed by William Perry, formerly of Goldshoro, N. C., who was in love with the young woman. It is reported that she had expressed a determination to have nothing more, to do with him, and incensed him to the extent that he killed her to prevent it.
MISS WORA BENDER
Miss Reddick was an orphan and attended the Reed Orphan School taught by Mrs. Diana Pace at Covington, Ga. Some years ago she was sent to Jersey City to find a home with a family formerly living in Georgia. She remained there until two years ago, when she left to find more lucrative employment in New York City. She is survived by one sister, Mrs. Joseph H. Ilas, Oak street, Jersey City, who is a bride of but a little more than a week. Funeral services were held at the memorial chapel of J. C. Thomas, undertaking parlors, Mr. Thomas, having charge of the funeral. Interment was at Linden Cemetery, Long Island, N.Y.
THE MAYOR OF BROOKLYN
HAITI'S FINANCES IN BAD CONDITION; CANNOT PAY
Financial Depression Caused by Political Differences; Government Opposed
WILL DEFAULT ON INTEREST
Building of Schools and Other Important Work Deferred for Lack of Funds Caused by Noticeable Falling Off of Business.
PORT AU PRINCE, Haiti, Sept. 10. With an empty treasury, the Haitian government declares its inability to meet the railway bond interests, and the second instalment of the Peters claim likewise will remain unpaid when it falls due.
Comment on Haiti's financial condition is hardly necessary in view of the political struggles that find the government and hostile leaders in open opposition. There was some hope here that the new minister from Haiti to the United States would have been able to help clear the darkened horizon, yet so far Sr. Solon. Menos has achieved little at his new post besides being advised that intervention in the country's affairs can only be avoided by all parties agreeing to something despicable and constructive.
John B. Terres, the United States consul at Port au Prince, has been actively gathering statistics, hearing on the republic's trade during the revolutionary period. Mr. Terres has been unable to get figures beyond the early part of the present year.
Although the greatest depression in trade has come since January a noticeable falling off in business had begun in 1913. Last year the total imports amounted to $8,717,268 and the year previous the amount was $8,876,976 a difference of $1,159,908.

BOARD. OVERRULES
PASTOR COLE'S ACTION
The action of the official board of Bridge Street A. M. E. Church, Bridge street, Brooklyn, in overruling the action of the Rev. C. P. Coles, pastor, who refused to accept Wayman D. P. Wilson, an expelled member, back into the church membership, resulted in the church, membership last, Sunday night at the regular service;
In accepting Wilson as a member Pastor Coles said he admired Wilson because he was a man and had the courage to stand up and fight for his convictions. It is supposed that this action will mean the end of the Wilson-Cole fight, which was based originally on a difference of opinion and not on any matter of moral culpability.

We warn the public against them.
The Negroes throughout the State should remember James C. Thomas Jr.,
his primary day and give him a vote. He is a candidate on the Progressive
cause for member of the Constitutional Convention. Be sure to vote for him.
District Attorney Charles S. Whitman, Job Hedges and Harvey Hijman are seeking the nomination on the Republican ticket. To the colored voters Mr. Whitman is perhaps the least known, but as well spoken of. So is Job Hedges, who is well liked and who doubtless would make a good executive if elected to November. Last but not least is Charles S. Whitman, who has won many and name as district attorney. During his two terms in office Mr. Whitman has appointed one colored man as a deputy district attorney.
Governor Glynn is seeking re-election on the Democratic ticket, as is John A. Hennessey. Governor Glynn desires to be returned to Allanby on his record as Governor. Mr. Hennessey is known as a fighter and is regarded as a re-former of the first water.
William Sutherland and Fredrick M. Drayton went the Governor's promotion on the Progressive ticket. With Mr. Sutherland we are better acquainted, for during his short term as Governor he raised three bills which were of great interest to the Negro citizens of the State—the emancipation proclamation, Lovey and colored militia bills. During the present primary campaign, which has been a most heated one, we have failed to hear any expression from either candidate making plain his attitude toward the Negro. It is to be regretted that any expression should be necessary, but unfortunately—but little consideration is shown the colored citizens for election day.
In the distribution of political plums the Negro usually finds himself completely overlooked and forgotten after he has cast his vote, save in one or two minor instances. This should not be. Colored voters are deeply concerned in "good government," "economy," "good roads," "extravagance," and all subjects being discussed with avidity during this campaign, but they are also vitally interested in other matters which directly affect them—one of them being "Where the Colored Brother, Comes In."
and needless use of the common, the gun and the bayonet, we are beginning to grasp, but little information as to the correctness of the white man's view of modern civilization and Christianity.
We have been been able to believe that the white man was, far away from the state of barbarism, but we have been rudely awakened. It is difficult for us to associate culture, refinement and education with murder, pillage and waste. In civilized Europe to-day nations are guilty of actus de barbariam that pale into magnificence the conduct on the battlefield of the average warriors of hundreds of wars ago.
Southern statesmen, in particular have taken pleasure in the past in calling the Negro a barbarian, and, despite his regnarkable progress since, the issuance of the Emancipation Proclamation, these demagogues have sought to show that the colored American was not capable of taking on the white man's civilization. Now what will these villiers say?
Is it possible that after all modern civilization is only a thin veneer, which when pricked reveals only the barbarian of years gone by?
THE EXPOSITION AND FESTIVAL
The Autumn Exposition and 'Amusement Festival to be staged at Manhattan Casino and Parks from September 28 to October 2, inclusive promises to be one of the most unique entertainments in New York's history. It is not surprising that such widespread interest has been created and that the citizens are anxiously looking forward to next Monday, the date of opening.
Conceived and arranged by Negroes, all of whom are reputable, showmen who rank high in—the theatrical world, arrangements for holding the exposition and festival have been conducted along practical lines, and the artistic success of the entertainment is not in doubt.
The interest shown in the exposition by white advertisers, some of national reputation, should be encouraging to members of the race, who heretofore have leen of the opinion, that the Negro is not being seriously considered as a consumer by manufacturers. Many large firms are showing that they hold the Negro buyer in high esteem by participating.
NEGROES FAILING IN BUSINESS.
No one may be surprised if now and again we hear of cases where important Negro business enterprises fail. This is an age of evolution through which every race and every individual must pass. If one will read the history of the successful business men in this country he will find that most of them have failed; in some instances they have failed several times before they finally get upon their feet.
Our race must pass through the same stages of evolution. Every failure of a bank gives to the race an experience in the business which will make such enterprises much stronger in the future. Nothing is so valuable in business as experience; though it may be bitter, it is in the end worth while. The only person who has no back sets or reverses in business is the one who does no business.
SPRINGFIELD, ILL.
SSTRINGFIELD. Ill—Notwithstanding that there was in this city, August 8, 1908, an interlinee war race, the colored people are really doing well. They have never stopped, but are pressing forward. One criticism is to be made that the black business is stimulating the business league. There should be a live league here. There are the businesses, and the public spiritedness, but somehow those at the head of the league are lacking in executive ability or something. II. Bradley died, last week. The reital Monday evening at the Masonic Hall was a treat.

If the salaries of the president and secretary are added to the present indebtedness the convention is estimated will meet in Chicago once the convention is approved of a debt, mostly for officers' salaries, amounting to $8,723.55.
A protest was made against the manner in which the money was-paid out. Although a committee, composed mostly of officers, was appointed on disbursements, when the committee reported just before the vote, the members had been paid out already and some of the persons receiving it were gone. The strongest protest was made against the manner of election of officers. Prominent members of the convention are credited with saying that the method of voting was stroved every vestige of Baptist liberty, with the consequent result of almost disrupting the convention.
Hold Meeting to Protest.
This feeling of protest and objection to the methods of Dr. Morris and his supporters led to a mass meeting held in the Zion Baptist Church, the Rev. E. W. Moore, pastor, in which seventeen States were represented, to consider ways and means of organizing a systemic campaign against the present administration of the convention. A committee in this plis. Tenn., Wednesday, November 18, to issue for publication a letter of complaint to the denomination. Some of the ministers are counseling a new convention, by the more influential and conservative men are working for reform old convention. It is declared, however, even by the most conservative of the leaders that unless election rules are passed that will insure fair play the convention will finally disrupt and split.
The following are the officers elected for this ensuing year: The Rev. E. C. Morris of Arkansas, president; the Rev. Patsy of Pennsylvania, vice-president; the Rev. A. J. Stokes of Alabama, Treasurer; the Rev. L. G. Jordan of Pennsylvania, secretary of the foreign mission board; the Rev. I. H. Tennessee, secretary of the national board of publication; the Rev. E. W. D. Isaacs of Tennessee, secretary of the
Pulver of Tennessee, the Rev. E. H. McDonald of Minnesota, the Rev. E. A. Wilson of Oklahoma, the Rev. S. N. Gross, assistant secretaries.

IGH tribute is being paid Mme. Sissiretta Jones (Black Patti) by the theatregoers this week at the Lafayette Theatre, and the cordial greeting given the renowned singer by immense crowds at each performance must be most gratifying and inspiring to her. The Lafayette has sheltered large audiences galore, but so little has been an interest shown in Black Patti's engagement that all previous records for attendance have been shattered. And it should not be overlooked that this unprecedented business, has been done with the mercury in the thermometer hovering around 91.
"Lucky Sam from Alabam" is the title of the new vehicle in which Black Patti is appearing this season with Harrison Stewart as co-star. It is described as a three-act musical comedy, book, lyrics and music by Harrison Stewart and staged by Will A Cook and Harrison Stewart. In the construction of the piece Harrison Stewart has taken several vaudeville offerings in which he has been seen with success and bound them together with some semblance of a plot. Many of the musical numbers are also reminiscent to New Yorkers, having been heard in Mr. Stewart's sketches heretofore presented at the Lafayette. However, this consolidation of dialogue and songs ought to prove a winning combination and score strongly in other cities.
There are three things that stand out in bold relief above everything else in "Lucky Sam from Alabam," the singing of Black Patti, the comedy work of Harrison Stewart and the dancing of J. Lacky Grant and Estelle Williams, and local theatregoers have not been backward in showing their appreciation of these three features.
Black Patti has returned to the stage after a year's absence, and seems greatly benefited by her vacation. She is undoubtedly one of the marvels of the stage. This is her eighteenth season on the road, and although her lot has been a most strenuous one, her rqute consisting mainly of one night stands, she is today just as spry and vivacious as a decade ago, and her voice retains much of its sweetness, roundness and brilliance. Eighteen years ago Williams & Walker, Ernest Hogan and Cole & Johnson had not blossomed out as stars of the theatrical firmament, and few white stars of eighteen years ago occupy a commanding position in the world of make-believe to-day.
Black Patti's gowns have set the women folks to talking, as they are the very latest creations and worn by one who knows the art of dressing as well as the art of singing. Three or four years ago Black Patti did not take part in the dialogue, rendering a few vocal selections only. Now she talks and walks' about the stage like one who had been accustomed to acting for years.
The first number sung by Black Patti is "Luckstone's Delight," which is her most serious effort. As an encore she is, singing Tostil's "Goodbye," which shows the singer at her best. Black Patti also has the only new song of merit in the show, a ballad entitled "No One," which she sings most effectively, assisted by a chorus.
Since Harrison Stewart branched out as a comedian it can be said that he has not been connected with anything, that was a complete failure. In recent years he has appeared in many vaudeville sketches, and in each instance he has scored strongly as a disciple of laughter. He is one of the most ambitious of our younger comedians, and in his efforts to succeed works industriously 365 days in the year. As a librettist and composer Harrison Stewart may not win undying fame in "Lucky Sam from Alabam," but his reputation as a comedian will be greatly enhanced: Laughs—good, hearty, grown-up ones—abound in large numbers in the piece, and no one can complain of there being an absence of wholesome comedy. This is the first real opportunity for many years that Harrison Stewart has had to demonstrate that he can successfully, carry the principal comedy end of a show, and his admirers believe that "Lucky Sam from Alabam" will serve him as a stepping stone to name and fame.
One of the most delightful hits in the show is the dancing of J. Lacky Grant and Estelle Williams in the last act. This terpsicorean specialty would command the respectful attention of all devotees of society dancing. J. Lacky Grant has been appearing in vaudeville with Aida Overton Walker, and his work shines out brilliantly. He is ably assisted by Miss Williams, who is a dancer of

Jeanette Murphy, as Julia Watson, and George Howard as Ben Wilson, make a most favorable impression in their respective roles, while Tillie Seguin, as Panny Wilson, Viola Stewart, as Lillie Smith, John Grant as Lem Brown, do their parts acceptably.

TO BUILD IN BALTIMORE.
Baltimore is soon to have a $100,000 colored theatre, the project being engineered by William H. Daly, a well-to-do colored citizen of Baltimore, who has successfully conducted a small house at Pennsylvania avenue and Greenwillow street for several years.
The proposed new theatre will be built at 1008 Pennsylvania avenue, in the heart of the colored business section. It will seat 1,500 persons and will be modern in every way. The ground has cost the promoters $25,000 and the building $75,000. Work will be started erecting the theatre at once.
The property of the Pennsylvania Avenue A. M. E. Zion Church, Baltimore, was recently sold and rumor has it that a white syndicate is planning, to erect a theatre there in opposition to Daly's project. It is said that it is the aim of the white promoters to sell stock to colored people. No stock has been sold to date.

Lincoln Victor Over Chinese.
Before a crowd that packed the park to capacity, the Lincoln Giants Sunday at Olive Park, administered their second defeat to the Chinese of Hawaii, winning 5 to 4. The team was to have been the farewell one of the Orientalists in the Esac, but the team put up such sensational ball that the management will try to induce him to play one more game at Olympic Field, Sunday. Redding, Harlem's favorite, back king, twirled effective ball for the Lincoln. He held the Chinese safe until the ninth, when a rally netted two runs. The batting of Wiley and Santop featured.
