HAS THE LARGEST VOL. XXVIII No. 10. OKLAHOMA LAW HELD INVALID Justice Hughes Reads Opinion of Majority of Court Saying that Oklahoma Jim Crow Railroad Law Is Unconstitutional INJUNCTION IS REFUSED Because of Imperfection In Application for Injunction Filed by Five Negro Citizens, Decision of Lower Courts Dismissing Application is Uphold. Special to THE NEW YORK ACE Washington, D.C., Dec. 2.—The Oklahoma Jim Crow law permitting railroads to discriminate against Negroes by refusing them accommodation in sleeping, dining and chair cars, was declared unconstitutional in a decision handed down November 30 by the Supreme Court of the United States, through Justice Hughes, the majority of the court concurring, because it violates the Fourteenth Amendment to the Federal Constitution. In handing down the opinion, Judge Hughes answered the contention of the railroads that sleeping, parlor and dining cars could not be furnished to one race alone on the ground that the volume of traffic among Negroes "did not justify this luxury for them, by declaring that the constitutional right against discrimination on account of race did not turn upon volume of the right denied, but upon the right of the single individual. The court did not save whether, because this "luxury" clause was unconstitutional, it would hold that the entire law must fall. The five railroads in the case asked when the case was argued that if this clause was annulled the entire law be field unconstitutional. Application for Injunction Defective. The case was brought up through an injunction sought by five Oklahoma Negroes to restrain five railroads in Oklahoma from enforcing the Jim Crow law. The Oklahoma Federal courts dismissed the petition, holding the law constitutional. While the opinion of Justice Hughes declared the law invalid upheld the decision of the lower court as to dismissing the injunction because of imperfections in the application. The Negroes had not shown that they had applied to the railroads for accommodation under the law or that the railroads had notified them that they would be refused certain accommodations. Chief Justice White and Justices Holmes, Lamar and McReynolds expressed no opinion as to the validity of the law but concurred in the dismissal. Previous decisions holding laws for separate coaches for the two races constitutional were not questioned. RALEIGH MARRIAGE A. BIG SOCIAL EVENT RALEIGH, N. C.

The New York Age HUNG BY WHITE MOB Special to The New York Age Byhalia, Miss., Dec. 1—Suspected of having caused the burning of a white man's barn, a Negro and his wife, Fred and Mary Sullivan, were taken from their home Wednesday, November 25, in the broad daylight, by a mob in which were some of the most prominent men in the county; and strung up to a tree, one after the other. They lived six miles out from Byhalia. The barn burned was the property of J. B. Williams, and his brother, Deputy Sheriff Ed. Williams, pleaded with the mob to give the accused Negroes a chance with the law. The mob of more than one hundred white men would not listen, however, and the report is that they "quietly took charge of the pair." They were hung with a rope from the well in their place. The man was hung first and went to the well with a hamper. The woman stood by and bravely her nerve while her husband was being executed and as bravely met her death. Both bodies were left dangling. The four year old son of the couple hid in a closet and was found later by some of the members of the mob. He was sent to his grandmother, who lives some miles from the scene of the crime. Police dogs from Memphis, Tenn., were brought here by J. P. Templeton and Neely Carter. LINGUISTIC EXPERT PASSED AS HEBREW Special to TRA, New York, Agc Special to TAX NEW YORK ACK. CHICAGO, Ill., Dec. 1. A young Negro from the South, speaking twenty-two languages, was a clams. Frederick Douglass Berger has been posing among the Jews of the West Side as a black Hebrew, under the name of David Itchock, and it is said that he was so clever in backing up his claims that many of the prominent Jews of this city were deceived. He might have gone on without exposure if he had not been arrested for criminal assault, the charge, being made by Clara Merriweather, a 14-year-old girl living at 4058 South Federal street, who is the mother of a child resembling Berger. He claims that it was his intention to teach the girl Hebrew and then marry her that she might add num in the deception which he was practicing. He was arrested in 1913, and the case finally came to the court of judge McDonald, who discovered the imposture. Berger's parents are said to be Mr. and Mrs. John Thomas-Berger, living now at 1822 Elm street, Des Moines, Iowa, but coming originally from the South. He learned a number of the languages from foreigners, working in the coal mines in Iowa. Customs and habits of foreign peoples he claims to have gotten familiar with from reading books at night. WM.

FARMERS $3,000 Assured for Farm Demonstration among Virginia Negro Farmers Governors Appoint Men in Each Statute Supervise Disbursement of Fund and in some States the Negro Will not receive Benefit if it Can Be Prevented Special to THE NEW YORK ACE BLACKSBURG, Va. Dec 1.—Whatever may be the doubt and uncertainty con- cerning the apportionment of funds under the Smith-Lever Extension Act for the Negro Farmers in some States, the Negroes of Virginia are practically assured of their recognition. It is stated as a definite fact that Dr. J. D. Eggleston, president of the State Agricultural and Mechanical School at Blackburg, who has been appointed by Governor Stuart to superintend the distri- tion of the fund allotted to Virginia, has promised to allot $3,000 to he used among the Negro farmers of the State. J. B. Pierce, farm demonstrator, a normal graduate from Tuskegee and a graduate from the agricultural depar- ment of Hampton, has been instructed by Dr. Eggleston to employ four more farm demonstrators to assist in Virginia. The act provides for the appropriation by the government, under the supervision of the Secretary of Agriculture, of a certain amount of money to each State to be used for farm demonstration and instruction in school gardening and canning. Each State is to appropriate an equal amount, and the entire amount is to be disbursed by some man appointed by the governor of the State, the money to be applied proportionately among the white and colored farmers according to the population. Since the administration of the fund is to be entirely in the hands of the local state officials fear has been expressed that, New farmers would be deprived of their share of the fund. Fund is for Rural Population Only The Secretary of Agriculture has declared that he will use every bit of his influence to see that the Negro farmers are benefited. In some of the states the money will be used to benefit the Negroes directly by the employment of Negro demonstrators. But since it is more than likely that the governors will, ANNUAL MEETING OF THE NATIONAL LEAGUE ON URBAN CONDITIONS AMONG NEGROES BETHEL A. M. E. OHURCH, 58 W. 132nd ST.

THE LAST STAND RACE HATRED in many instances, appoint as disursing officers men who are unical to the Negro it is feared that a loophole may be found, by which the Federal provision may be met and at the same time the Negro get the minimum benefit from the fund. Chances are slim for the Negro farmers of Louisiana, Mississippi and South Carolina, because in those states the Negroes outnumber the whites and there will hardly be a disposition to apportion the provisions for the Smith-Lever bill which is for the portionment according to population. The money is to be expended for farm demonstration and instruction in school gardening and canning and is to be used entirely among the rural population. It cannot be expended for teaching in any of the schools. The state legislatures making the appropriations of money to meet the requirements of the art will necessarily have to agree to conform to those requirements, and because of this it is predicted that some of the Southern farmers will close to the appropriations. Others will make it as before intimated, leave it to the ingenuity of the disursing official to find means to deprive the Negro of all direct benefit. HOLDING MEN TO WORK OUT FINES.

FILIPINO INTERESTED ABOUT AMERICAN NEGRO Roads The Age in Manila and Writes Interesting Letter to Editor QUESTIONS: PROPHECIES Is American Negro Too Busy with Prophecies and Things to Organize for Political Betterment? Soldier Friend Answers Some Questions for Him. Pedro Pablo is a Filipino who attended the public school at his home, Angeles, Pampanga Province, Philippine Islands, and he left that place some months ago for Manila, where he hoped to become a "Nagalao of finance." He became friendly with an American soldier attached to one of the Negro regiments, and this friend has introduced him to New York City. Pedro's interest in the Negroes of America has been aroused and he has written the editor of Titt Age, setting forth some of the things which interest him and asking questions about many other phases of the situation which he does not understand. The comments, touching upon exercise of the franchise, race prejudice, etc., are refreshingly naive and decidedly interesting. The Filipino's Letter. The letter, which gives the gist of a conversation between Pedro and his American solider friend, is as follows: Coccolomb, Bagan, P. I. My dear Mr. Editor!

On October 30, Mr. McDougall went to Utrea for the purpose of delivering a political address in behalf of the Republican ticket, and when leaving Utrea, entered the lunch room connected with Baggs Hotel and ordered lunch. He was told that he would have to go to the kitchen to eat it, or that he might take it out with him, but he declined to do either.

LEADING NATION TRIBUTES TO A NOBLE WOMAN Public Meeting Held in Honor of the Late Mrs. Anne Maria Fisher WAS A PHILANTHROPIST Left Bequests of $10,000 Each to Hampton and Tuskegee Institutes and $500 to the Garlton Avenue Branch Y.M.C.A. Came to New York as Runaway Slave from Lexington, Ky.—Services Held at Silam Presbyterian Church, Sunday Night, November 29, Largely Attended Sunday evening, November 29, at 8 o'clock, there was held in the Silam Presbyterian Church, in the city of Brooklyn, New York, a great public meeting in memory of the life and services of the late Mrs Anne Maria Fisher. The old church was filled upon this memorable occasion, even standing room being at a premium. The great outpouring was divided between Mrs. Fisher's friends and those who came out of respect for the simple, Christian, heroic life she had lived and the deeds of philanthropy she had conferred on deserving Negro institutions. Mrs. Anne Maria Fisher was born in 1818 on the Clay homestead at Lexington, Kentucky. At the age of 19 she married Nathaniel Lewis, who also belonged to the Clay family. The couple ran away from Lexington and came to New York, living in New York City for eight years, then moved to New York where the deceased lived the balance of her life. She married Kentucky Anne Lewis had about $800 and her husband had a similar sum. They engaged in different business enterprises and were successful. Some time after the death of Mr. Lewis she married Benjamin Fisher, who died about sixteen years before she did. Bequests to Southern Schools. Mrs Fisher always regarded herself as a Southern woman, and in making her requests left $10,000 to Hampton Institute in Virginia and $10,000 to Tuskegee Institute in Alabama, giving as her reason that these schools in the South were doing so much for the uplift of the race that they were deserving of her support. The work of the Carlton Avenue Branch (colored) of the Brooklyn Y M C A. had favorably impressed Mrs. Fisher and she also left that institution the sum of $500. While it was known before her death that Mrs Fisher had in mind doing something to help change the conditions of her people in the South, few people knew to what extent she had relied upon the advice and judgment of Frank H. Gilbert of Brooklyn in making Hampton and Tuskegee, two of her largest legatees. Indeed, for many years Mr. Gilbert had been a close friend and confidential adviser of Mrs. Fisher. The Memorial Service. During the services Miss Alice Louise Browne read an original poem on the life of Mrs. Fisher which she had specially prepared for this occasion. Following the regular devotional services the meeting was opened with a brief address by the Rev. Dr. W. A Alexander, the pastor of the church, who described the strong, Christian character and told of how extremely modest she was in all things, not even wanting a memorial window placed in the church for her. R. M Meroney, secretary of the Y. M. C. A. next spoke on behalf of that institution, expressing thanks for Mrs. Fisher's gift of $500. Mr. Meroney said that the board of trustees had applied Mr. Fisher's gift of $500 towards the Y. M. C. A. building fund and that when the building was erected Mrs. Fisher's name would be appropriately inscribed. Major Moton Represented, Hampton Dr. Alexander then introduced Major R. K. Moton as the representative of Hampton (on behalf of Hampton, Major Moton heartily thanked Mrs. Fisher's friends and the people of Brooklyn for Mrs. Fisher's generous legacy to that institution. He stated that the school had appended Mrs. Fisher's request of $10000 towards Hampton's Endowment Fund and added that it was significant that of the two largest individual gifts made to Hampton by women one was from a white woman and the other one from a colored woman, the latter being Mrs. Fisher. That Brooklyn friends of Mrs. Fisher might clean some idea as to the far-reaching and helpful purposes which Mrs. Fisher's benefaction to Hampton would serve Major Moton moke of the work Hampton is doing in the direction of imprinting the Negro masses to a plaing of self-help and self-respect. At this point representatives from the Y. M. C. A. rendered several appropriate selections of music. The last speaker on the program was Frank P. Chisholm of Tuskegee. After assuring Dr. Alexander and Mrs. Fisher's friends how greatly Principal Washington regretted his own inability to be present at this service and express the thanks of Tuskegee, Mr. Chishinolm described feelingly and impressively the conditions which Mrs. Fisher's request o Tuskegee would help change and improve. He told of his own experience in acquiring his trade and working for his education at Tuskegee. Tuskegee Represented by Chisholm. Mr. Chisholm said: On behalf of the Tuskegee Normal and Industrial Institute, I wish to express to you, for Alexander, and to the friends of the late Mrs. Anne Maria Fisher, our profound thanks and deep gratitude for Mrs. Fisher's generous bequest of $10,000 to this institution. In acknowledging this large gift of money in this formal and public manner, Tuskegee Institute pledges herself faithfully to carry out the purposes of the donor so that her munificent benefaction will help untold thousands of colored young men and women to sit themselves for worthy and efficient citizenship in this republic. Coming, as it does, the gift of an ex-slave, the principal and board of trustees of Tuskegee Institute shall preserve the Anne Maria Fisher bequest as a sweet memory and a glorious inspiration to all who shall be served by its avail to the end that the inspiring life of Mrs. Fisher, though being physically ended, shall forever, spiritually, lend itself with, and help and inspire, other lives. "In presenting on this memorable occasion the greetings and grateful thanks of Tuukkee Institute, I desire also to express my own personal appreciation for the privilege of being permitted to have a small part in honoring and keeping green the memory of one of the great and noble characters of the Negro race. I know how genuinely glad Presidential Washington himself is to speak for Tuukkee and personally to exspire as from the bottom of his heart his deep and lasting gratitude for Mrs. Fisher's bequest. However, he desires me to say for him that he regrets very greatly) that the pressure of school business, at this particular time is so great that it has been quite impossible for him to arrange to be here. Brooklyn Has Given Much to Tuskegee It is not difficult for us to understand how Mrs. Fisher could so generously and so wholeheartedly, remember Southern educational institutions in her will. Having been born a slave and having seen the larger part of her life and her labors in Brooklyn, the home of Henry, Ward Beecher and other great souls who suffered and died for freedom's sake, her mind and heart naturally, sympathetically and helpfully turned towards the condition of her people in that section of the country where she was born. Besides, the existence and growth of Tuskegee Institute in Alabama is largely due to the generous and philanthropic people of Brooklyn. Doubts, therefore, in remembering Tuskegee in her will, Mrs. Fisher had in mind, among other things, doing her part to continue and keep alive the deep and warm-hearted interest of Brooklyn people in such schools as Hampton and Tuskegee Institute. It is now more than 30 years since Dr. Washington first came to Brooklyn in search of aid and encouragement in building up Tuskegee Institute. From that time until the present, the people of Brooklyn have generously and joyfully supported this institution. "In the 32 years of its existence, Tuskegee has sent out into the world some 9,000 men and women who are making their lives felt in every nook and corner of the South as preachers, teachers, mechanics, farmers, housekeepers and practical business and professional men and women. In short, early Tuskegee is sending out hundreds of well-trained men and women, in the simple appliance industry, of reliay, honesty and obedience. law are fostering to the world the practical effects of education upon their lives. "Again, in blazing the way and setting the example to the Negro race in the matter of self help towards its own institutions, I am sure that it would gratify Mrs. Fisher to know of the growing disposition on the part of colored people in all parts of the country to make contributions towards the support of Tuskegee and other Negro Schools. It will, therefore, prove of interest and value for you to know that of the 3,637 individuals who contributed to our work, a great gift to words the support of Tuskegee works last year, $49 were colored people. Several of these contributions were for 100 each. Many of them for $50, $25, $10, $5, while the majority of them were $1 each. "During our recent commencement we had a reunion of the eleven classes that graduated from 1894 to 1904. These seven classes made contributions at the reunion of the amount of $2,559.50, one class giving as much as $550. No thoughtful person will galaxy that entirely apart from other considerations. Mrs Fisher's legacy will prove thoroughly worth while also in educating the race in the direction of self-help, in the direction of influencing all of the members of the race, itself to begin to help educate itself. "And so, Dr. Alexander, from the life of this humble and yet noble erotic black woman we can all gather inspiration and learn the lesson of racial self help, a lesson of faith in the future of the race, the lesson of urge service to our country." special to THE NEW YORK ACK BURBINGTON, N.

COMMENDABLE TONE OF THE NEGRO PRESS The tone in which the Negro press of the country treated the recent White House incident cannot be too highly commended. Some papers handled the affair in a deeper and more earnest manner than others, but there was a remarkable absence of ranting or abuse. In practically every paper in which editorial comment was made it was done in an earnest, but, at the same time, dignified and logical way. This leads us to remark that no good could have been accomplished otherwise. Any abuse against the President, either in the Negro press or pulpit or in mass meetings would only tend to rob the race of the benefits of the desire to see fair play which had been awakened in the public conscience. It is perhaps, not too late to say to every member of the race who has the privilege of speaking through the press or from the platform that any temptation to abuse the President should be carefully refrained from; as such an action will not help us among our friends but will hurt us among our enemies and those who might wish to be fair to us. We subscribe to no doctrine that "the President can do no wrong." We always reserve to ourselves the right to criticise his public acts. Yet, we realize and say that mere abuse of him is neither right nor profitable. AN INTERESTING LETTER Elsewhere in this issue we publish a letter written from the Philippines to The Age. The letter purports to be from a Filipino school boy who is acting in the capacity of washerwoman for some of the colored soldiers stationed at Manila. There are internal evidences that the letter is apocryphal; it is hardly possible that any Filipino school boy could acquire such an intimate knowledge of the English language; indeed, it is not likely that there are many American school boys who could write such a letter even if their own tongue. However, whether the letter be genuine or not has nothing to do with its contents. We feel that readers of The Age will enjoy reading it. Under the naive style of composition there runs a vein of keen satire and sly humor that are sure to be appreciated. The letter refers to an article which appeared in The Age on August 27 last. The article, which was the text upon which the letter was written, was not an editorial but a communication which was sent to The Age by a correspondent. We do not consider it necessary for us to take sides as between the two correspondents. Our readers who care to may look up the letter published in this paper on the 27th of last August and compare it with the letter printed to-day and then draw their own conclusions. The annual meeting of the Urban League is to be held at Bethel A. M. E. Church on Friday. We especially urge the colored people of the city to attend the night session at which Dr. Felix Adler will deliver an address. There is in this country no braver advocate for human rights than Dr. Adler. THE SUPREME COURT AGAIN DODGES. Although a majority of the United States Supreme Court expressed the opinion that the Oklahoma "Jim Crow" law provisorum permitting railroads to furnish sleeping, dining and chair car accommodations to white people only was unconstitutional, the Court nevertheless, failed to issue a decree declaring the law to be unconstitutional. This action is entirely in accord with the position which the Supreme Court has always taken upon questions involving the rights of the Negro. In every such case the Court evades the issue by dodging behind some technical error in the previous proceedings. A law was passed in Oklahoma which contained what became known as the "luxury" clause. This clause permitted the railroads of the state to provide Pullman accommodations for white people only. Five colored men brought suit to obtain an injunction restraining the railroads from enforcing this law. The case was carried to the Oklahoma Federal Court, which declared the law to be constitutional. The case was passed upon this week by the United States Supreme Court. A majority of that Court expressed the opinion that the law was unconstitutional, but refused to issue a decree declaring it so or to grant an injunction restraining the railroads from enforcing it. The Supreme Court simply affirmed the dismissal of the case by the Oklahoma Federal Court; and, so, the law stands just as it was before the suit was brought. It will be hard for the layman to understand why, after a majority of the Justices expressed the opinion that the law was unconstitutional, the Court did not issue a decree to that effect. The reason given by the Court for not passing on the constitutionally of the law was that the five Negroes who brought the suit had not shown that they had applied to the railroads for accommodations under the law or that the railroads had notified them that accommodations would be refused them. A decision of that sort is enough to make a man feel that there is something wrong with legal procedure in this country; and that the sentiment of contempt for courts, which has been so constantly growing in the last decade is founded in reason. It is true that legal procedure in the United States runs to the letter rather than to the spirit of the law; it makes a fetish of technicalities. Here was a case in which a majority of the Court held that the petitioners were right, that what they sought remedy against was wrong; and yet, they decided in favor of the wrong because those who were in the right had neglected to dot an "i" or cross a "t." After fighting a long and costly suit through to the highest court of the land, it is more than discouraging to be thrown out on purely technical grounds. The only comfort to be gained is the fact that a majority of the Court expressed the opinion that the law was unconstitutional. However, the law stands just as when it was passed, and the only remedy is to bring another suit in strict conformity with the letter of the law. It is interesting to note that four of the Justices, who agreed with the majority of the Court in affirming the action of the lower court, expressed no opinion on the constitutionality of the law. They are Chief Justice White of Louisiana Justice Holmes of Massachusetts; Justice Lamar of Georgia; and Justice McReynolds of Tennessee. ANGLO-SAXON SUPREMACY IN MISSISSIPPI. The white chivalry of Bylalia, Miss, got together last week and vindicated Anglo-Saxon supremacy by lynching a Negro and his wife on suspicion of burning a planter's barn; and so, the Mississippi brand of supremacy is safe for a while, at least. The next time it is in danger it may be found necessary to throw stronger protection around it. This may be done by lynching a Negro and his wife, with the baby thrown in: After the baby stage is reached there will not be much that can be done. Of course, there still remain the unborn babes; they might be lynched together with the mothers but, after all, a limit must be reached some day, and when that is reached we fail to see what more can be done. Undoubtedly, some people will find it difficult to understand why a supremacy of which we have heard so much, a supremacy which claims to be based upon congenital superiority should require such drastic methods of protection. They will, perhaps, feel that great superiority would be its own protection. However, these people are more mollycoddles who do not know "Southern conditions." The tragedy of this incident is of such proportions as to lead us almost to the verge of laughter—hysterical laughter. Here in what is called a civilized and Christian state of a great democracy a man and his wife, citizens of that state, are lynched on suspicion of burning a barn, and the affair doesn't attract one one-hundredth part of the attention attracted by the announcement of the foot and mouth disease among western cattle. The average man read it in his newspaper as an ordinary news item. A great many readers skipped it as unimportant news. One of the great New York dailies took it up and treated it editorially. The New York World it was that spoke out again in a strong article which we reproduce here in full: "THE USUAL CRIME." that lynched a Negro and his wife near warning a planter's harn, was actuated, we are protect the honor of Southern women. No burn-burning has to do with criminal assault striking a policeman or any offise perp crime" for purposes of immediate and condi the mob This The World is well aware that it will be new newspapers that it is slandering the Sult of the conditions of racial relationship whi or burning at the stake to safeguard wom course, ample testimony to the contrary, slay of Negro lynchings are due to assaults of such assaults. Of thirteenth lynchings in arter of 1913, not one, Booker T. Washington caused by "the usual crime". Of forty-five year, only seven were for assault. But wh wife? The one satisfactory thing about them muching the country over necessarily effect the usual crime." The mob that lynched a Negro and his wife near Bylalia, Miss., on suspicion of burning a planter's barn, was actuated, we are quite sure, solely by a desire to protect the honor of Southern women. Northern people may wonder what burn-ning has to do with criminal assaults, but it is none the less "the usual crime" where a Negro is concerned, just as insulting a white man or striking a policeman or any offence perpetrated by a Negro is "the usual crime" for purposes of immediate and condign punishment at the hands of the mob. In saying this The World is well aware that it will be reminded by forty or more Southern newspapers that it is islanding the South and that it is utterly ignorant of the conditions of racial relationship which necessitate the use of rope or burning at the stake to safeguard womanhood. There is, of course, ample testimony to the contrary, showing that only a small percentage of Negro lynchings are due to assaults on white women or even to rumors of such assaults. Of thirteen lynchings in the entire country in the first quarter of 1913, not one, Booker T. Washington demonstrated at the time, was caused by "the usual crime." Of forty-five lynchings in ten months of that year, only seven were for assault. But what have figures to do with the case? The one satisfactory thing about them is that the general decrease of lynching the country over necessarily affects a diminution of lynchings for "the usual crime." A LONG WAY TO TIPPERARY Whenever the Administration tackles any question that touches foreign affairs it makes itself more or less ridiculous. The latest is Secretary Daniel's order to the boys in the training school at Newport that they shall not whistle or sing "Tipperyary," so as not to violate in any way the rules of strict neutrality. It is true that "Tipperyary" has been adopted by the British soldiers as their marching song, but there is not a single word or idea in it that could be construed to have any national bearing. The song is in no way patriotic even. It is merely a music hall song with a good swinging tune which lends itself finely to marching, and which no doubt, is eliciting and inspiring to the men when they are either on the march or in the trenches. The funniest thing in this little comedy is that "Tipperyary" was made right here in the U. S. A. The composer is Harry Williams, who some years ago had the whole country singing "I'm Afraid to Go Home in the Dark." MENTAL PERVERSITY An Eatonton, Ga., correspondent writing to one of the New York papers regarding its article on the Wilson-Trotter incident says: "You state that segregation works deliberate discrimination. Why so? If the Negro considers himself the social equal of the white man, how can separation hurt him? If the Negro himself believed in his "equality" he would be the last to seek to force himself upon any found unwilling. No other race on earth does." We quote the above not because it would do any good to answer the Eatontonian's questions, but merely to illustrate the sort of reasoning that it put forward to justify prejudice and discrimination. It would, in fact, be a waste of time to argue with a man whose mental operations are so perverse that he twists a protest against unequal treatment, before the law and an objection to a humiliating separation in the compartment service of the Government into an effort to force one's company upon somebody who doesn't want it. So that much of the communication we pass by. He goes on to say: "The Southern people think more of the Negro and treat him kinder than do any people on earth." What a favorite expression "on earth" is with the average Southern rhetorician. However, this latter statement brings up one of the paradoxes of Southern character. It is true that Southern white people treat Negroes whom they like and with whom they have close contact with a great deal of kindness. They live on terms of the greatest intimacy with them, intrust to them their children, their family treasures and their family secrets, and in sickness rely upon their care. But all of this merely goes to prove that the Southern whites like Negroes only in certain capacities. Just as a man likes a good dog and treats him kindly—so long as he is a good dog. Kindness is a virtue exercised by a superior toward a dependent. It is no doubt difficult for these people who pride themselves upon their kind treatment of Negroes to understand why the whole race shouldn't be satisfied and happy with mere "kindness." In the concluding paragraph of this correspondent's letter he has the following sentence: "It is not arrogance in the Southern people to think that they, better than others, understand their own problem." Well, if it isn't arrogance, it is something worse. It is the most monumental sort of presumption for the Southern white people to assume that this problem is theirs, to settle regardless of what the Negro thinks; and in making such an assumption they will find they are reckoning without their host; for whenever and however this question is settled it will be done by both the parties in interest. The Eatonton gentleman makes a still greater error in this last short sentence; he says that the Southern whites understand this problem better than the people of any other section of the country. The truth is, they understand it less, because they do not know or practice the only rules by which it can be rightly worked out. But the whole letter is only a sample of the mental perversity the average Southerner exercises in reasoning about the Negro question. J.W.J. ARE YOU GUILTY? We offer an apology to our readers for taking up so much space in the quoting of an interview published in another paper. But the interview is so chick full of suggestions that we feel quite sure our readers ought to see it. Good White Man Becoming Discouraged With Blacks. (From the Tobeka Plaindeak) J. D. Cook, the enterprising editor of the Milwaukee (Wis.) Defender, prints an interview with one of the factory owners of his town which is now only interesting, but contains many undeniable facts. In his rounds Mr. Cook called upon the gentleman to ascertain the reason that colored men were not given employment in his factory, and the following is Editor Cook's account of the conversation: We visited a large shoe factory, where we interviewed the president as why he did not have a few colored men employed at the factory, as we buy shoes the same as other people. Here is what he had to say: "Your people won't do. Just as fast as you get a few dollars you take it down to old Jollin's place and shout craps till it's all gone. Then you come back to your job the next day want to work. You must teach your people that they cannot stay up all night around crap tables and expect to compete with white men who are prepared to render efficient service each day." I have nothing against your people and would employ colored men, but they are unreliable. In our club meeting the other night your people were discussed. "Your people must save their money and buy homes and start into business of some kind. Look at the foreign element? When they come to this country they cannot even speak the language. In a few years they are operating business. "I was born in this town, and I can remember when nothing but colored people lived in the Fourth ward. How much property did they buy? Not a single foot, and they had a chance to buy property cheap in those days. Now they are paying big rents in alleys, and in old tumbled down shacks. "Your people are not making any progress. Thirty years ago my old man helped your churches and the same men are still soliciting money for Saint Mark church. "I went to this church one night just to see for myself how many attended. There were twenty-two women, five men and the preacher who was pleading for "just a dime mo. to make it fo dollars." Leaving the church, I visited a certain saloon. The place was crowded with old and young, and the way they were spending their money would have made Rockefeller look sick. Your preachers should fight the evils among your race. The white people are not going to do it; they do not care how low your people sink in vice and crime." Before we had time to speak his big touring car groove up and he made us good bye, saying "young man go and think it over!" Every Negro in the country ought to read and ought to think over seriously what is meant in this item. Our getting mad about what this white man said makes no difference; we should try to see to what extent this is true in our community. WHAT THE PEOPLE SAY The Mississippi Outrage. To the Editor of the Age: I was in the town of Holly Springs Miss. on Thanksgiving Day and wit- nessed the football game between Rust University and M. J. College. But while the little town of Holly Springs was wild with enthusiasm and more with the good things of a typical Southern Thanksgiving Day, there coached in a shrewd, with grief/strike and grenched strives, lay little by little the story of Holly Springs. To them Thanksgiving gave nothing, to them the cloud of dread hung over that small town, to them the white man stalked the streets as some mysterious and hideous super-brutish monster. For the white men had entered into a Negro's home without any circumstantial evidence, but that was not without fear, and took him and his wife, dragged them out and lynched them. I passed through the little town on Thanksgiving Day. A colored man got on at that stop and I tried to get into conversation with him. At first he was reluctant to talk about the affair but came in conference in the middle of the night. He could hardly have the colored people seen soaked that they have become deformed and disoriented to such an extent that those in the immature in neighborhood seemed least concerned and affected. I was amused as never before by disorientation by the intense race. It was a very hard task. It was every man of us to righteous indignation. This insult and indignity to our race should not be unpunished. It is my intention to take an active part in soothing that at least we are given a hearing before some legal court. I shall be pleased to know that I will be treated in court an interest to be treated in this matter. Memphis. Tenn. The Ohio Situation. To the Editor of The Age. In your Columbus letter last week your correspondent stated that "several prominent colored men had already been picked for office" under the leadership of the readers of The Age may not be misled. I wish to say Governor Willis has not even picked a "prominent" white man for office yet, and it is not customary for officials-elect, no matter how pure they are, to pick colored men for office first. "Your correspondent also states that "A Negro attorney will be in the office of the attorney general." The governor has nothing to do with the attorney general's office, that office being, as is the governor, by the people of the state. The governor has announced practically all his appointees, save his gantry, yet the name of no colored attorney has been announced. Possibly he is reserving the Jointorship for the colored attorney whom your correspondent says will be in the attorney general's office. Further Your correspondent stated that the State treasurer would be appointed in the State treasurer's office of State offices I hope so, but I am reminded that the derief forces in these offices, as in all State offices, are under State civil service rules; that it will require legislative enactment to repeal the civil service so as to prepare for colored clerks, and the Republican majority, even if the party is not a Republican, the repeal of civil service which it is not, in the legislature is not sufficient to repeal civil service. Your correspondent also referred to Thomas W. Fleming as being the only colored member of the Republican State Committee, no other colored man wanted it. It's but an empty honor. Also your correspondent spoke of a woman who was a Republican organization extrema in colored Republicanism. It is wonderful in that it never hold a meeting—not even to organize; never has done anything, and the fact of its existence was not known until mentioned in The Age last week. It is a sort of morbidity organization resuscitated on paper only, to club officials, and some of its members deserve it. Like all colored men, I hope for recognition of the tree at the hands of the new administration when it takes there is nothing doing H. E. FERGUSON Columbus, Ohio. JERSEY CITY, N. I. JERSEY CITY, N.

TROUTER INCIDENT. The newspapers in all sections of the country continue to make editorial reference to the untenable position assumed by President Wilson as regards segregation of Negro governmental employees. From Los Angeles, Cal., comes the Daily Times;/with an article by Alma Whitaker, a prominent white newspaper-writer, who compares Wilson's treatment of the Negro delegation with that accorded the women suffragists a short while ago. The New York Independent, one of the leading weeklies of the country, treats the matter in an editorial headed "Friction." Others will be given later. From the Los Angeles Daily Times. was to show the women and the Ne- When the President received a deputation of Negroes last week he became distinctly touchy and objected to their spokesman. He declared he had never before been spoken to in such a tone and with such a background of passion. It sounded reminiscent somehow. And then we remembered. That is exactly what he said when the women suffraghs waited upon him a short while as he sat at the Negroes can take heart. They at blast were favored with the identical sort of reception that the first American records the American women. On both occasions he brought the interview to an abrupt close, complaining of their spokesman, on both occasions he said he had not offended his dignity jeopardized. Indeed, if one would draw invidious distinctions, the Negro came off heat. For the President did condescend to explanations in a somewhat conculatory form to them, whereas the ladies, God bless them, had the interesting sensation of the President's husband scholastic lick upon them as he brought the interview to an end by shrugging leaving the room. And both the Negroes and the women were complaining of political discontent. The Negro already has the vote in theory, although not exactly in practice. In the President's own Southern States, That complaint was intended for the conclusive explanations. The Neoceros were complaining about the new rule of segregation that has been introduced into government offices in this regime. Gradually but effectively the Negro employees of the government have been segregated so well that they could not work with the white man. That is doubtless because so many Southerners have been put into office under this Democratic administration, and it takes a real pure-blooded Democrat to find official fault with his darker brother. The President explained that there had been segregation became necessary. There was never any friction when the Republicans held office. The white men of the Republician party never felt that horrified sense of caste defiled when a Negro worked in the same office, persecuted by the white man, deed, he either gave the impression of being gud that the dark man was getting on so well. Heaven knows I hold no brief for either women or Negroes. Both can be peculiarly stupid on occasion. All their traditions are against them. But it is interesting to consider the Southern in much the same way as so many men regard women. They are brought up with them—how many little lordly Democrats have known their sweetest childhood in the company of their fond, foolish, black mammy and her sweetest friend. How how intimate the little Democrat of South comes with his colored servitors, how much love and devotion is expended between them. He practically learns his whole ideas of life from the Negro in his youth; and all the traditions of his people of Africa, carefully ingrained into his life. His moral ideals are largely the Negro moral ideals—necessarily, for we all know how the teaching and understanding of the first ten years of a child's life stay with him to the end, and his politics have always declared that if the child is complete influence of the child for those first ten years he is his forever. Th Southerner lives almost entirely under the domination of his Negro servitors in his youth and he does not want to be alone. They often them in the same household, but to love them sincerely for their obvious virtues. Yet such a little while later he is busy repudiating this same Negro servitor, and grows up to repudiate the worth of women. But I could not help being impressed with President Wilson's assertion that the Presidency was not worth having, and that he thought it was a fool! He said the war was intolerable burden. We must remember this when 1916 comes round. And one of the things he had to do FILIPINO INTERESTED ABOUT AMERICAN NEGRO (Continued from page 1.) Manila and be a Napoleon of finance. I didn't succeed right away. My American friend, who is a "Soldado," tells me to "Buck up, poco tiempo mucho sunshine." My friend is justly proud of his Spanish. Last week my friend read to me from THE NEW YORK AGE. He says that it is a paper with fertile possibilities. It was very interesting. So Concerned About American Negro. I am concerned about colored Americans because my friend says "they are right up against it." He says they are denied the right of voting in some of the Southern States; that they have not had a single member in the National House of Representatives and very few in the State assemblies. "But they pay taxes, don't they?" I asked him. "They certainly do, amigo mio," he answered me. "That is taxation without representation. Isn't that why the Colonies fought England?" (You see we had a New England teacher in our school in Angles). "The identical same," replied my friend. We studied civil government at school and we specialized on your Constitution. "What about the Fifteenth Amendment?" I interrogated him. "It's intentions are commendable, though they suffer from lack of exercise." Sometimes my amigo is difficult to locate—understand, you know. was to show the women and the Negroes that their place in life had been preordained, that their duties were quite actual, but a shade inferior, and that it ill became them to alter the decree of the Almighty. That political ambition for equality of treatment was an importance. "While the American people want to support the advancement of the Negro," said he, "as practical men, everybody knew that there was a point at which question must be stripped of sentiment and viewed in its facts, because the facts get the better of the individual whether one desired it or not." "The question involved is not a question of intrinsic qualities, because you will remember souls (women you will remember souls (women California only since they obtained the franchise!) and were equal, in that respect, but for the present it was a question of economic policy whether the Negro race could do the same jobs as the white race with equal efficiency. Substitute women for Negroes and you have the other argument all pat. What worries us is that these Negroes should have been given this work to do, these women should have been directed to our these responsibilities, while it they could accomplish them with equal efficiency. Isn't segregation, after the act, just a shade discriminating? From The Independent (weekly), New York-City, . FRICTION. Doubtless President, Wilson had good reason to be provoked by the style of the address made to him by Mr. Trautter, one of the speakers of a delegation of Negroes who visited him by appointment to protest against the discrimination of the parties at Washington. Mr. Trautter is editor of a Negro paper in Boston, who offends many of his own color by his superabundant untactful intelligence. The other members of the delegation made plain but respectful addresses and helped their cause; but the President had fair occasion to tell them that he would interview with him Mr. Trautter's presence would not be acceptable. Nevertheless the delegation had the right on their side, and the President gave them no satisfaction. During previous administrations since the war colored clerks who won a place under the army were like white clerks; if there were fifty or a hundred in a room they had their desks with the others, and no special complaint was made. But when this administration came in clerks from Southern States began to be offended by the work outside Nogros, and the heads of the department reus sympathized with them and put the colored clerks by themselves, on the ground that it was humiliating for white people to sit and work near black people on a level of equality, and had been Indians, or half Indians, like the African Congress, there would have been no trouble, but because they were of a race that had endured slavery, they were told, in actions that speaker louden than words, that they were not fit associates even in labor and must go by the same rules as the Jim Crow car rule of the South, and the South had captured Washington. The President did not meet the occasion properly. He defended the sorregation. He said it was done "to avoid friction. Friction was not necessary; he had not in the past, even when Hoke Smith was Secretary of Interior. The heads of bureau could control it if they cared to. Those that made friction could be dismissed. The President said he had made investigation and had found that the colored hat and fair accommodations as the white; but the brown pose. These colored clerks would have just the same right to complain if the comforts provided them were superior to those given their white brothers and sisters. What they have the right to handle the minds of the Government is exact equality of power of the segregation is not equality. There will be "friction" and there ought to be friction, if any race, black, yellow or brown, is humiliated and insulted by the government. "Why?" I always want to know these things. The experiences of another race may be helpful to mine. "Race prejudice on the first hand," he tersely answered, "and thereafter the insincerity of our political leaders and race representatives in general. This, coupled with our disorganization and a criminal habit of hoping for better conditions, without expending any real effort. for their acquisition, has spelled our political ruin." I was indeed surprised and puzzled. Almost all of the colored Americans that I see here are always so joyous and free from care that I thought them denied of nothing at home. "Are they who remain behind correspondingly happy?" I asked my soldado amigo. Negroos in America Must be Good Christians. "Essentially so—they are like thumming birds." "Perhaps it's because they are good Christians and have faith." I wanted to console my friend, who seemed worried. "You've struck it, Pedro, old hombre," he agreed. "Faith happens to be their middle name. Listen at this." And he read me an article from your edition dated August 27 entitled, "A Forecast of the War's Outcome," having reference to the fortunate state of affairs now existing between European powers. Now, I am a devout Catholic. I made me tremble to listen to such awful things. "It is sacreligious!" I exclaimed. "Those people should not liken Jesus of Nazareth unto a heartless military captain whose mission it is to cut throats and spread disease, but unarmed murdering hordes may go!" I can't imagine the great Jehovah having to win his battle that way. It seems unreasonably cruel to subjugate 'all nations by fire and sword' when the All Powerful, Himself, put us here and suffered us to be as we are. It is inconsistent with a father's love for a son, the Creator's love for His creatures. When you give a friend your good fountain pen, it becomes the biggest little thing he owns.

"Well he slowly answered, "I'm quite sure that it's somewhere written in the Bible; These may be modest prophecies who reveal themselves to only a favored few—they must be there because those Christadelphian folks say so." I felt that my friend was laughing at me—he is so difficult to locate at times. Pedro is Seeking Information. I reached everywhere among his scattered books and papers for a Bible. Poor fellow, he didn't have one. "Then, too," suddenly added my friend, after they shoot the world up for a few years until they succeed in getting everybody killed off Christ is to be in supreme command of the world. He will issue a general order declaring peace on earth and good will among men for a thousand years. Of course, the men will not be there to enjoy it, having all been killed in battle, but it shows good intentions anyway. "I don't believe a word of it!" I told him. "It is a horrible, ghostly joke——" Or, omenal! he added. "I would have said," he continued, "that these men who foresee all this big light stunt" for a thousand years hence have not been able to see a means whereby they may secure their civil emancipation, nor do I believe they have been considered nor strongly desired such a state of affairs." "But perhaps they are not, colored men," I interposed. "Then water is dry," replied he. It was during the season of rain. I was quite sure about the water. "They must be colored," I agreed. I was confining to see what he meant by calling the prophecy a "furnal." I am writing you this letter, Mr. Editor, for information. Is it really true, as my friend says, that the American Negro is too busy with prophecies and other things to organize for political betterment? When I ask my friend he only laughs and says, "Pedro you are showing signs of becoming a highway You will end up by becoming president of an insane asylum or an inmate thereof." He won't talk seriously with me. I feel that you are a good man and that you will give me a sincere answer to these questions: Were those forecasts a joke or really a funeral? And is my amigo right about the Negro's political inactivity? Thank you for an early reply, I am, Respectfully your interested friend. PEDRO PABLO. WHEELING W. VA. WHEELING W. J.

The following article from the Nashville American briefly tells of the hit colored musicians from New York are making with the white devotees of the Modern Dances in one Southern city—Nashville, Tenn.: The Sans Souci, after having been closed for about a week for rearranging and reorganization purposes, reopened on Saturday night with the largest attendance ever recorded In New York. Wife Billy Long former leading lady of the old Orpheum stock company, appeared Saturday night as an added attraction, and opening night was a great success. Miss Long was undoubtedly the "star" of the evening, and hundred times the audience about the way she handled things. The colored orchestra which was brought here by the Hermitage Amusement Company, operators of the Sana Souci, direct from Joan Sawyers Persian Gardens of New York City, and their playing of the latest dance music was commented upon favorably by the added audience by the titled the place Saturday night. Unlike similar gatherings, most of those who visited the Sans Souci Saturday night danced and danced to their heart's content, and when the clock finally tolled the hour for leaving and the orchestra struck up the last piece, the multitude on hand left with the feeling that the evening was good time, judging from the conversation overheard as they wended their way through the doors, homeward-bound. Yes, music certainly must have its charms. Once upon a time, and not so very long ago, the daily newspapers of Nashville would have vigorously protested against the presence of colored musicians playing for white dancers, and the "social equality" bugaboo would have been raised. This incident is a pleasing indication that time is gradually changing conditions in the South for the better. The colored orchestra, under the direction of William Blacklock, left New York for Nashville about three weeks ago. Upon leaving for Nashville the musicians were, doubtful as to how they would be received by the white people of that city. Every member of the orchestra, is writing to New York and telling of the big hit the colored musicians are making. The big bill being put on at the Lafayette Theatre this week is the talk of Harlem, and it is really worth the while talking about. The management has been greatly pleased to hear the complimentary comment going the rounds, and aside from talk, there has been concrete evidence at the box office that the bill is one of unusual interest. Europe's Lady Orchestra under the direction of Marie. Lucas is headlining the bill. This act is original and novel in many respects, and owing to the dance craze should prove a marketable offering for any vaudeville team. All of the members of the orchestra are musicians far above the average and are experienced. The costumes worn have been selected with good taste and the young women present a neat appearance. The personnel of the orchestra is: Marie Lucas, leader and trombone; Marie Wayne, first violin; Alice Calloway, cello and traps; Mazie Mullen, trombone and saxophone; Ruth Reed, cornet; Nellie Sheldon, bass; violin; Mildred Franklin, second violin; Maudie Sheldon, viola; Mattie Gilmore, piano, and Lottie Brown, drums. The absence of a lively, gingery song is conspicuous, and to the theatregoers there would be more novelty in the young women playing solos on their instruments than in singing. One good selection of the syncopated variety would be a plenty along vocal lines. All of the numbers were received amid applause, and the finish of the act is strong. Hundreds of local colored theatre-goers did not learn until this week that in Elizabeth Hart-Dorsey the race has a soprano of rare promise. A few seasons ago, as Lizzie Hart, this young woman appeared as prima donna of the Smart Set-Company, but at the time she was not given the opportunity to show New Yorkers just what she could do as a vocalist. Monday afternoon Elizabeth Hart-Dorsey made her New York debut as a soloist at the Lafayette, and no artist in the history of the house scored such an instantaneous triumph. Of all the colored singers in recent years, none has appeared so promising as Elizabeth Hart-Dorssey. She possesses physical charms and a winning personality. She is versatile and can sing an operatic number, a ballad or a ragtime song with naturalness and ease. Her voice has range, volume and sweetness; it is fresh, her eminence cautious, she gives an intelligent interpretation, and impresses one that she has been an ardent student of voice culture. "Beautiful Roses," "Rum ta Tum" and "Answer," her three principal numbers, are impressively rendered and the unstinted applause greeting the singer after each number is meritoriously earned. Elizabeth Hart-Dorssey is able assisted by her Inusband, William H. Dorssey, a talented song writer, who acts as accompanist. Elizabeth Hart-Dorssey should create a big stir in the musical world some day, for she is now on the threshold of a brilliant career. Harper & Gillam are probably the biggest favorites that ever played the Lafayette Theatre, and the ovation tendered them Monday afternoon upon their first appearance was deafening. They recently finished their engagement with the Darktown Follies and are back in vaudeville. Much has been written in these columns about Harper & Gillam—that they head the list of younger comedians of to-day, etc. Suffice to say, they were a riot. Whitney's Dolls present an act with a new idea, and went big, as did the Anolis, acrobats, and Saunders & Bauer, a sister team with pretty faces, pretty costumes and pretty numbers. The three colloided acts—Europe's Lady Orchestra, Elizabeth Hart-Dorsey and Harper & Gillam—have been held over for the second half of the week. THEATRICAL JOTTINGS W. A. Barclay closed his Mystery Show last Saturday at Anderson, S. C., and has returned to the city. Thomas A. Brookes and the Froliques of 1914 are at the Temple Theatre, Fort Wayne, Ind., with Scranton, Pa., to follow. Parker & Jordan are at the Arena Theatre, Harrisburg, Pa., this week. They will appear in stock at an early date. Announcement is made that S. H. Dudley is now with J. Leubrie Hill's Darktown Follies, playing Howard Theatre, Washington, D. C. Fiddler & Shelton will be at the Orpheum Theatre, Champaign, Ill., December 3 to 5, and at ht Temple Thea- Anderson & Goines, Utah, November press Theatre, Ogden, Utah, November 26 to 28, and opened at the Empress Theatre, Salt Lake City, Utah, for week of November 30. At the New Standard Thagatre, Philadelphia, acts booked for this week are Staines' Comedy Circus with four ponies and four mules; Lizzie Hart Dorsey and Sirene Navarro and Arthur Allen. LAFAYETTE NEXT WEEK Messrs. Morganstern & Walton-promise the patrons of the Lafayette Theatre another excellent bill next week; commencing Monday afternoon Abbie Mitchell has entirely recovered from a severe cold, which made it necessary for her to postpone her engagement last week and will be heard in late selections, assisted by Will Marion Cook at the piano. A thirty-minute musical farce, "Miss Lucy's Birthday Party," will be produced with Sid Perrin, Bob Slater, Arthur Braxton, Goldie Crosby, Jennie Ring-gold, Jessie Turner, Jennie 'Day and Mable Braggs in the cast. The Boldens, a strong colored act, will make their initial bow to Harlemites next week. Howard to Play St. Christopher, Inc. The "Second Big Gun" of the basketball season will be the game between Howard University team of Washington, D. C., and St. Christopher Club of New York, Inc. at Manhattan Casino on Tuesday night, December 15. The team are working hard to be ready for the game, which recognizes in the other a worthy friend. They will be trained to the minute and the game will be worth going a long way to see. The famous "Red and Black Machine," in its new organization, realizes that victory means much and will fight every inch of ground from whistle to whistle to hold the championship in New York. Indications point to a record crowd, as the demand for boxes is very great. Clef Club Notes Luther Blake is still on the firing line. Happy Rhone, who held the attention of the audience at the last contest, grandly apperches "The High Cost of Loving" giving two versions, both of which are interesting. An enthusiastic meeting of the advisory board was held in the club rooms Monday evening. Johnson, house chairman and energetic business man, is ever on the job. Arthur Williams and J. Taylor, two versatile boys have signed a contract for three years longer at Holly Arms. Even seven consecutive years' engagement for the boys, which speaks well for them. They must be making good. With the Billiard Players Large crowds of the better element of New Yorkers are seen nightly at the Franklin Billiard Academy, amusing themselves off the pleasant pastime of billiards. Mr. Willis has added a new feature to his academy in the form of a private cue rack which is an elaborate one and fitted with individual keys. It has been named the Marlborough Blenheim. David R. Yancey of Buffalo, who has been visiting the city for two weeks, has spent some pleasant and enjoyable evenings at the players headquarters. Members of the Billiard Players have adored as their club song, "And the Smoke (Give Up the chimney) Just the Same." This song accompanies the J. Frank Wheaton at the oyster super tended Mr. Willis and friends at the Empire on Friday evening, November 20. W. R. Davis was elected assistant secretary of the Billiard Players' Club at their regular meeting on Wednesday evening, November 25. A carome pocket billiard room operated in Harlem by a white man and catering to colored trade, went out of business for lack of patronage. This was a splendid illustration of race loyalty. Charlie Sommers has deposited his deal with the manager of the Fiskels for the game billiards with any of his partners. For particulars call or address W. H. Willias, 440 Lenox avenue. F. A. Stevens has taken up English billiards. Second Big Gun OF THE BasketBallSeason HOWARD UNIVERSITY vs. ST. CHRISTOPHER CLUB OF WASHINGTON, D.C.

NEGRO FOOTBALL STAR; The football season among the scholastic teams of Greater New York ended with the games, played last Saturday. While his team did not show championship calibre, it is the more remarkable that Edward Williams of Corona, a student at the Commercial High School, Brooklyn, should have made such a record during the season that he is unanimously acclaimed by all the sporting writers on both New York and Brooklyn papers as the best tackle of them all. He is placed without competition-upon the all-star scholastic team as selected by the various sporting editors of Greater New York. In the final game of the season between Commercial High and the Bay Ridge eleven, it was largely Williams' brillant work which not only caused Bay Ridge to be scored upon for the first time, but also to wolf him in the wlming defeat by the score of 12 to 0. Speaking of this game, the Daily Tribune said of Williams: "Eb" Williams an Ebony Star. For thrilling plays and brilliant work by individuals, the second game of the afternoon easily held the greatest attraction of the spectators. "Eb" Williams, the Negro phenomenon at left, brought a wonder at running through a broken field, and upon more than one occasion he came from behind and down a Bay Ridge runner with the ball just when it seemed that a score was certain. With Williams carrying the ball for rush, he brought a bright light. Commercial took the pigeonkil to the thirteen-yard line, from where Becker carried it over in three rushes off left tackle. Williams caught Becker's kick-out, but the latter failed on his try for the goal from the 35-yard line. Williams brought a bright light the kick-off and made a brilliant run of 25 yards before an chony streak came from behind, in the person of Williams, and laid the Bay Ridge back low. Howard Derotea Hampton. Before one of the largest, crowds' that has ever attended a game on the University campus, the rejuvenated Howard University, football eleven defeated the strong Hampton team on Thanksgiving Day by a score of 0-0 in a fiercely contested and a brilliantly played game. From the very start of the game the home boys put the visitors on the defensive. It was only a few minutes after the game had started that the college boys registered a touchdown through the most brilliant playing ever seen on the campus. The Hampton boys played a steady, clean game. There were few tumults the game with the visitors had lookin' at, with the exception of a few minutes all the playing was done in their territory. All the plays of the home team were fast and well executed. Their selection showed sound judgment. The speed of the backs was a revelation to the on-lookers. Hampton always braced up under the goal and several times took the ball downs. The result of the game told the story of a team with open football overcoming a powerful opponent with straight football Hampton's chief plays were a mass play through center and an off tackle play; and as soon as Howard mastered these Hampton was almost helpless. Several forward passes were attempted but all failed. Howard, on the other hand, tried everything in open football, and how well she succeeded is best told by the score. Ponderinghines kicked off to Hampton's 10-yard line and Hampton returned the pigskin 10 yards. On a series of line plunges by Bender, Flint and Jamerson, Hampton marched 30 yards down the need and then lost the ball on downs. It was Howard's ball in the mid-field, and from here Penderhughes, Grinage and Stratton began their march to the goal. A series of line plunges gave Howard her first down on Hampton's 45-yard line. A triple forward pass of 30 yards was made by Brice, Stratton and Penderhughes. This play was the feature of the game. Hampton seemed to be disorganized by this play for Howard's back field tore through the line for long gains and placed the goal on Hampton's 8-yard line where it was taken over the goal line by Grinage in the next play through center. Penderhughes missed goal. Hampton came back strong after Howard's touchdown but the homebys, encouraged by their success, played some remarkable defensive football and easily smothered all efforts of their opponents. "The game developed into a kicking duel between Stratton of Howard and Jamerson of Hampton. The line-up was as follows: Hampton—Johnson, l.e.; Martine, l.t. Givens, l.g.; Stoney, c.; Coleman, r.g. Wildy, r.d.; Gayle, r.e.; Bender, q.b. Jamerson, l.h.b.; Moore, (Capt.), r.h.b. Flint, f.b. Howard—George, l.s.; Matthews, l.h.

The champion Morehouse Tigers, going to Nashville, Tenn., with all the football dope in their favor, were beaten Thanksgiving Day by the light Fisk team7, to 0. The game was by far the most sensational in many moons, Fisk showing a burst of speed never before equaled in her football history, and having a versatile attack that would do credit to any team anywhere in the country. She played her heavier foes completely off their feet and wield the game on their knees. Varying attack from lightning-like end runs to short line buck and off tackle plays, and combining this with a series of forward passes that were completely covered up by fake formations Morehouse's ends and tackle were at a loss to know when and how to meet them. The Fisk team of Thanksgiving Day led by that peerless quarterback, Lewis, was indeed a brilliant combination. Each man, for that matter, was an important cog in the Welker machine and was oiled to run as smoothly as a sewing machine. It can be said truly, "You can never tell about a little football game." Line-up of the teams: Morehouse—Weaver, l.e.; Richard, h.l.; Oixon l.g.; Harris, center; Carter, r.g.; Ross r.t.; Ely, r.e.; Brock, q.b.; Jackson, l.h.; McKay, r.h.; Lewis, f.i.; Fisk—Kean l.e.; V. Smith, l.t.; McVity, r.g.; Sexton center; Wade, r.g.; Suggs, r.t.; Ziegler r.e.; Lewis, q.b.; Wesley, l.b.; Ford, r.h. Bright, f.b. Substitutes: Morehouse—Jones, Dickerson, Cane, Warren, Cohorn, Jones Razen, Fisk—Davis, Stockman, Walker Kelly, Ruchie, Ware, Referee—Proof Cameron, Umpire—Prof. Washington Head linesman—Prof McAllister. Time-keepers—King and Jones. Bust Defcats M. L College For the second time this season, Rust College football eleven met the heavy Miss-sipper Industrial College eleven both of Holly Springs, Miss, and defeated them. It was science and skill against avoid-ups, for the M. I backfield outweighed Rust by 20 per cent. In the first quarter, Rust received the kick, and returned same to M. I. 10 yard line, M. I. failed in two downs and resorted to forward pass, which was intercepted by Jackson, who carried the ball across M. I.'s goal for the first touchdown. Stennis failed to catch the kick-out, forfeiting the kick, for goal first quarter ended with ball on M. I.'s 5-yard line, at third down. In the second period, Rust failed to carry the 'ball over in the remaining downs and the 'ball went to M. I. who carried it 35 yards in straight line plunging. The first half ended with ball in M. I.'s possession. Score-6 to M. I. 1.0. In the second half Rust executed three brenthall plays, which gave her the second touchdown. Brandon with two end runs carried the ball 65 yards. The double pass, Stennis to Shrillr to Putnam, carried the piskin 15 yards to the goal line. Putnam kicked an angular goal, making the final count 13 to 0 in Kust's favor. Substitutes—Rust: McEwen, R. H. B, Baker, L. H. B, Referees—Prof. P. H. Wjite, Dr. J. D. Harrison, Shaw University, Timekeepers—Prof. F. J. Rogers, Prof. W. L. Maclin. Fifteen-minute periods. Shaw Defeats Livingstone In Shallbury, S. C., on Thanksgiving Day before a huge crowd of spectators the Shaw before the death of the twirling stone College football team, in a hard fought battle by a score of 7 to 0. In less than three minutes after the kick-off Shaw had scored a touchdown and kicked the goal. The Livingstonians rallied fiercely but to no avail. In the last period the fight became so fierce that several of Livingstone's men were completely knocked out. Livingstone had held the state championship in football for two years. The honor now returns to Shaw. Morris Brown, 14; Atlanta Univ. 6. Several hundred spectators witnessed the big annual football game Thursday, November 20, when on A. U.'s campus Morris Brown University defeated Atlanta University 14 to 6. Last year A. U. defeated M. B. C. This year M. B. C. is rejoicing over her revenge. The game was intensely interesting and the spectators were continually yelling and applauding as some spectacular play was made. St. C's Open Season by Winning. A large crowd gathered at Manhattan Casino Thanksgiving Day to greet the basketball team of St. Christopher's Club, incorporated, Will Anthony Madden, manager, in its first appearance upon the courts for this season. Its opponents was the Independent "Bix Six" Club of New Jersey. Although the Independents started off-with a rust and a sweat, the team won. The red and black machine soon got into its stride and when the final whistle blew, the score was St. Christopher, 37, Independents, 22. Madden's boys appeared in brandnew outfits, even to the ball. All the boys gave a good account of themselves, Cooper especially doing some great work. Many compared his work at center with that of Bradford, who is generally credited with being a star center, and Cooper did not suffer by the comparison. Both are great jumpers, but Cooper has the advantage it is thought, in shooting, Williams is a new man but he exhibited a wide knowledge of the game. Perkinson got away with six field goals, but even at that he was not up to his usual form. Accoe, Brown and Hargrove, in the guard positions, gave splendid support. Singleton, one of the regular "Tigers" on this year's team, substituted for a few minutes and showed up fast. The Independents played an aggressive game, M. Johnson, Hayes and Morse starring.

A., time of halves, 20 minutes. The charge is made, that during the progress of the game one of the former members of the St Christians attempted to bring about defeat for them by betraying some of the signals of the team to its opponents. It is hard to believe that this can be true, as a clean athlete would never stoop to such unsporstunlike actions. Such charge against a college athlete would mean, if true, the strapping of his uniform and his expulsion in disgrace. It is in the same class as stripping the uniform from a soldier or officer of the law for betraying his country's secrets or ifor cowardice. Manager Madden has written the following card of thanks for the support given his club in its first appearance: "On behalf of the St. Christopher Club of New York, Incorporated, I wish to thank all of our friends, as well as my personal friends, and the general public, for the hearty support they gave us at our initial affair on Thanksgiving Day. And that in spite of a certain malicious undercurrent of opposition working against us we came out successful from everystandpoint." St. Christophers of. St. Philip's Parish Play. On Thanksgiving afternoon the St. Christopher Cubs of St. Philip's Parish House triumphed over the Carlton Y. M. C. A. Cubs in a hotly contested game of basketball to the tune of 33 to 23.
