HAS THE LARGEST The New York Age STILL SHOWING VICIOUS PICTURE Local Officials Refuse to Suppress "The Birth of a Nation" BOTH RACES PROTEST Ask Mayor Mitchel and the License Commissioner to Stop Exhibition Appealing to Baser Passions. MAYOR DIRECTS INQUIRY No Word from Commissioner Bell, however—Few Colored Citizens Permitted to Enter Liberty Theatre—Gangmen Present. "The Birth of a Nation," alias "The Clansman," is still being shown at the Liberty Theatre, although the National Board of Censors has rejected much of the film on the ground that certain scenes are objectionable, and despite the appeals made by colored and-white citizens to the local authorities that the civic picture be suppressed. Already the picture has pictures some ill feeling against the races, and many illiterate whites who are susceptible to its appeal to passions have not been backward in showing their dislike for the Negro. Fearing that irresponsible colored citizens will show their resentment against the exhibition of "The Birth of a Nation" by resorting to violence, the management at the Liberty Theatre has adopted a policy, of excluding as many colored persons as possible. Only a few have been able to admit attendance, and those who were taken for white. The charge has been made that gangmen have been stationed about the theatre to take an active part if a colored person becomes disorderly. Mayor Promises to Take Action. 'On March 4 the following telegram was sent to Mayor Mitchel by the dramatic editor of THE AGE: The John Purnell Mitchel, New York. "The Birth of a Nation," Liberty Theatre, to laser pessions and seeks to disrupt friendly relations existing between white and colored citizens of New York City. The book suppresses racial conflicts it inevitable. (Signed) LENTER A, WALTON, Dramatic Editor The New York Age.

Boston, Mass, March 9.—At a large meeting held Sunday at Tremont town, to protest against the unfair, treat-treatment of African Americans, Moorfield Storey declared that an organized movement exists in this country to keep the colored people down. Congressman Martin B. Madden of Chicago declared that there is just as much Southern anti-colored control in Congress to-day as before the war, and are just as much rebel in their hearts. The following resolutions were unanimously adopted: We pledge our loyalty to the republic of the United States and to the great principles for the perpetuation of which it was conceived and whom and equal opportunity for all. Without animosity or rancor, but firm in the belief that protest is unjustified, we attempt the attempts in the national Congress by certain men from one section of the country to extend through national laws their un-American doctrines of race humiliation. Segregation and Jim Crow legislation will prevent no evil and will only arise once hurried, between white people and colored people will never be prevented by laws which punish marriage and open the door to immorality. If this country is civilized it should have been a free, liberated, less of color. The proposed anti-marriage law is hereby a film pretense, the sole result of which would be the protection of the white libertine, and the these resolutions be printed, and a copy sent to each member of the Sixty-fourth Congress and to the President. The meeting was attended by many prominent modern abolitionists. NEGRO SAVES LIFE OF GEO. W. PERKINS Palm Beach, Fla.-George W. Perkins, partner of the late J. P. Morgan, was rescued from drowning this morning when the fishing smack in which he was riding capsized in the Saint Laurel Inlet, car Stuart, Fla. Mr. Perkins might have drowned but for the expert swimming of a Negro fisherman, who battled agafish heavy waves and succeeded in landing him on a sandbar at the inlet.

WANT NEGRO'S SUPPORT ON FEMALE SUFFRAGE MISS ROSALIE JONAS TALKS Makes Appeal to Men "Who Have Had Sad Experience of Cramping Influences of Injustice." The white women of this State prominent in the suffrage movement are appealing to colored men in favor of giving women the votes at the fall election. Among those working hard to secure the support of the colored voters is Miss Rosalea Jansen, who in intercession with a representative of The Age stated that colored men should not allow sex prejudice to stand in the way of promoting female suffrage. Miss Jonas' views on the subject follow: "In asking the colored voters in this State to rally to the support of female suffrage this all we are apprehining, this all we are apprehining, should be strengthened by sad experience of the cramping influence of injustice, and the deadening on both races—of undemocratic prejudice. "Our bill is the first step toward real freedom; for no race can be free while its women are disfranchised; and in the struggle for life under our economic conditions, where women are forced to clothesmaking, canning of food, and into the factories, none are so handicapped as the women of color." "All women are forced to take lower wages for the same work, and undercut men, until they can have a voice in regulating the conditions under which they work. But the colored, woman (with the limitation of poorer teaching and more difficulty in gaining admittance to college) is offered often into the hateful position of the 'scab' where she is used to break up the regular unions, and so adds to race prejudice the antagonism of working women of her own class. "The colored men who are disfranchised realize fully how helpless they are to fight these same conditions. Will those of them who enjoy the freedom of their own sex prejudice to stand in the way of the advancement of their own mothers and sisters, as race prejudice has hampered and restricted them?" THE EIGHT BLACK DOTS AVERT A PANIC Members of "The Eight Black Dots" proved to be heroes and averted a panic at Proctor's Twenty-third Street Theatre last Sunday night. The company was in the climax of its act when word was received that the theatre was on fire and to cut the act the actors stuck to their task, cut some of their best lines and went off in a hurst of applause. The "Good Night" sign was then flashed and the audience passed quietly to the street. The fire was later discovered to be in a loft adjoining the theatre.

Swearington, whose administration is regarded as the most imperial to the advancement of the Negroes of the nation preceded by the advancement of participants in the primaries victory for Mr. Bowden is recalled by the race as a great victory. The nomination is equivalent to election. RACE TAKING ADVANTAGE OF EVERY SCHOOLS The reports and records show that Negroes are taking advantage of the opportunities afforded by the city evening schools. The students attending the high schools maintain a high standard of scholarship and at the same time take an active part in various volunteer work. Evening school No. 99, corner 133th street and Lenox avenue, has more than eight hundred colored students of all ages, in twenty-four classes. The students are required to pursue millinery, embroidery, dressmaking and English to foreigners. Although the students of the evening schools come to the class rooms after a hard day's work, the average attendance is better than that of the school attentions. The Mafia Hog, Goldberger, principal, received, congratulations from the superintendent of evening schools for the high attendance of twenty-six students for each of the twenty-four classes. While the pupils attending the school are very ambitious the problem confronting the students is the demand for new classes and interest those who are not already fired with ambition. Large Number As DeWitt Clinton. DeWitt Clinton is the greatest number of colored pupils, fifty in number. They maintain a high standard of scholarship, take part in the various volunteer activities of the school and support themselves working after school hours.

ANDERSON'S RECORD AS COLLECTOR COMMENDED Highly Praised by Commissioner of Internal Revenue Osborn OTHER PROMINENT MENWRITE Otto T. Bannard and William E. Lewis among Those to Speak Highly of Mr. Anderson's Performance of Duty. That Charles W. Anderson was removed as Collector of Internal Revenue for the Second District, New York along with other Republican officeholders last week, to meet political exigencies and for no other reason, has been made evident by the many letters of praise received by Mr. Anderson from Administration officials and friends since announcement was made that he had tendered his resignation. Aside from being generally regarded as a most efficient Collector of Internal Revenue and one of the best, if not the best, in service, Mr. Anderson enjoyed the distinction of being one of the most popular officeholders in the State of New York: In acknowledging receipt of his letter of resignation, W. H. Osborne, Commissioner of Internal Revenue, wrote as follows: My dear Mr. Collector: Your letter of the second instant was brought to me at my apartments this morning: where I have been come for an attack of my grilpe. I am going to try to go down South tomorrow and see if I cannot recuperate. I don't think I have been able to do that. Your letter is an exceedingly many one and I appreciate it. I hope your future will be contented and prosperous. Sometimes when I am in York I will try to let you know. Otto T. Bannard, bancer, was another well-known man to write a letter to Mr. Anderson praising him for his highly creditable record as Collector. Mt. Bannard's letter follows: The New York Trust Company, 26 Broad Street, New York, March 5,1915. Dear Charley: You are entirely at liberty to use my name and this is an appropriate time to congratulate you upon achievement. It has been a notable performance on your part, a credit to yourself, your work, your efforts and your outstanding. There could have been no better Collector and mighty few would have done so well. With host wishes for your future service. (Signed) CTTO T. BANNARD. Hon. Charles W. Anderson. The following compliment was paid Mr. Anderson by William E. Lewis, editor of the Morning Telegraph. My dear Mr. Anderson: I doubt when we both left the State of Ohio, the home of all just and proper men, that either of us with a proper tax as set forth in the account position to collect and I with a pressing need of paying the income tax as set forth in the account position to you, and continued power to me to do it! I am told by those competent to me, Mr. Lewis, that I have Knane and my brother, Alfred Henry Lewis, who seems to have the same information, that you are to become income tax. What I object to principally in the situation is that it took me the better part of two days to find what I should charge and what I should also receive great strength of mind to set down what I have. I could earn the tax amount of time and application in any one of three ways. With my continued best research and the hope which now amounts to a belief that the great father of Washington, Mr. Osherson, where you belong, I am, as ever, Faithfully yours. W. E. LEWIS. Other letters recently received by Mr. Anderson from Commissioner W. H. Osherson, in which the Collector was highly complimented for the efficient manner in which he conducts the affairs of his office, were as follows: This office is in receipt of a letter from Stuart Patterson, under date of February 1, 1915, in which he spends in enormous terms of the money he has found for excessive jaxes withheld at the source had been handled by your office, the claim having been filed with you on Friday, January 30, 1915. Bankers: Trust Company before noon on Saturday, January 30, the bankers. Trust Company having been authorized by you to refund this money on writing you this similar to say that the offence exhibited by your office in this instance is very pleasing to me, and also for the purpose of informing you that such efficiency is not necessary to the taxpayer. Respectfully. Relative to the action taken by you to facilitate the handling of the new revenue stamps during the early part of December, when an immensely important imposed on your office owing to the unprecedented demand for these stamps, and am gratified to learn that you handled the situation in such a satisfactory manner, instructions prepared by you for the guidance and information of dealers selling wines, liquors, etc., in your district, are very comprehensive and will no doubt be of great assistance to the government collecting the proper amount of tax. I desire to thank you for your interest in these matters and to assure you that I appreciate the manner in which you overcome the obstacles which arose during the very strenuous period in the early part of December. Respectfully. (Signed) W. H. OSITORN, Commissioner. Mr. Anderson will hold office until his successor qualifies. NEW HOSPITAL OPENS AT TUSKEGEE INSTITUTE Special to TuS New Year Age. Special to THE NEW YORK ACE TUSKLEE GIEEE, Ala., March 8. -On February 22 the doors of the John A. Andrew Memorial Hospital, Tuskegee Institute, Ala., were opened to the public for a clinic, and from the way* patients came the hospital was greatly appreciated and there was evident great need for it. The physicians and nurses were kept busy throughout the entire day caring for those who were suffering with various maladies. Operations were to be performed, but the out-clinic was so large that there were not sufficient physicians and surgeons present to care for the out-clinic and operations too, so she had to join in. The Ninety-three patients were treated in this capacity, while the wards of the hospital were almost filled, fifty-three patients being in bed. Many of these were regular hospital patients, while about twenty were awaiting operations. The hospital began coming to the hospital. On Saturday the regular hospital force was very busy, examining and admitting patients; also much of it, Sunday, was utilized for the same purpose. Many Unable to Pay for Operation have anxious these people were to be treated, and at the same time it was lamentable the scarcity of funds among them. Promises had been made to treat patients at greatly reduced rates, and those who were unable to pay would be treated free of charge. The great majority came under this heading. Many, of course, assumed to be unable, but the great majority really were. They were some who brought produce. For instance, one woman with a large tumor presented herself with two quart jars of fruit as her contribution for services to be rendered, another who washed treatment brought a jar each of peaches, tomatoes and blackberries; one quan, whose wife needed an abdominal operations and suffering severely, brought a small ham and two quan. Another woman brought in payment for an abdominal operation on his wife, two chickens, one ham, two quarts of blackberries and one half-gallon of peaches. These articles were all accepted by the hospital management and were used to help care for the patients in the hospital as a result of the clinic. This evidence on the part of the patients to pay someone was great, appreciated, well received and made an effort to do something for themselves. following the medical clinic on Monday, operations were done during the following few days, and about twenty patients have been treated surgically, all very satisfactorily and successfully. The hospital is greatly indebted to Dr. U. L. Gr. Coop, Dr. U. L. Gr. Coop, Dr. U. L. Gr. Coop, Ala., for their assistance with a number of surgical cases, and to Dr. J. W. Darden of Opelika, D. L. Coar, West Point Ga., and A. M. Williams of Union Springs, Ala., for their assistance with the medical cases. Dr. C. Thomas of Amiston, Ala., responded recently to the medical cases with the medical cases also. Dr. Thomas brought two patients from Amiston to the clinic. Dr. Darden one from Opelika and Dr. A. M. Williams one from Union Springs. Dr. T. V. McCoop sent one of the patients, being unable to come from Amiston, to the clinic in order in connection with our practice and by invitation for the clinic. A number of very delicate operations were performed. One unusual case was discovered which we are giving especial study and when laboratory reports are available the same will possibly be published. We have already remarked that they may have anything like it before. The patient from whom this specimen was taken is doing nicely. Many of the operations were done by the visiting physicians and curious left HOTEL MEN HAVING HARD TIME IN JACKSONVILLE U.S. SERVICE. Fla. Mare's 82-unit tents of cooled hotel men who came here at the beginning of the winter season are stranded, having failed to find enforcement. This has been the tightest season ever experienced in these parts. Thousands are unemployed and many are actually suffering. A NEW SCHOOL OF AMER. ORATORY Miss Jane Addams Makes Discovery While Attending Tuskegee Meeting DESCRIPTIVE ADDRESSES Quaint, Unassuming Talks by Colored People from Rural Districts Made most favorable Impression on Visitors. PROMINENT PERSONS ATTEND Julius Rosenwald, Seth Low and party Inspired by Spirit of Optimism and Evidences of Thrift Encountered at Famous Institution. Special to THE NEW YORK ACE. TUSKEGEE INSTITUTE, Ala., March 8—In commenting upon the descriptive addresses given by the graduates and former students of the Tuskegee Institute on the extension work of the school before the trustees and friends of the school, Miss Jane Addams, world-famous lecturer and economist, declared, among other things, that she had discovered in these speeches what appeared to her as a new school of American oratory. If one is to judge from the opinions expressed concerning this phase of Tuskegee's activities, the thirty years' work of the school was concentrated into this one unique program which told in a most enlightening manner how Tuskegee is influencing and uplifting the Negroes of the South. Instead of the usual method of having the work given descriptive descriptions of their efforts, there was the concrete evidence from those who had actually been benefited by the extension work of the school. Quaint, unassuming and without any efforts at oratory, the colored people from the rural districts told the trustees and visitors in plain, simple and unaffected language how they had been helped to independence and prosperity through the influence of Tuskegee's movable schools, canning clubs, conference programs, booklet Closing program, Booker T. Washington, Jr., with stereopean views showed the results of Tuskegee's efforts for the betterment of rural school buildings which have been so substantially aided through the generosity of Julius Rosenwald. Have More Hopeful.Outlook Upon Life. "We came to Tuskegee to learn and we go away, much wiser and with a more hopeful outlook upon life," was the ebook opinion from all the distinguished . . . Americans — philanthropists, judges, lawyers, ministers, business men and were the guests of Tuskegee Institute. "The world owes you a debt of gratitude, Dr. Washington, for the manner in which you are solving not only the Negro problem but the human problem as well," said one of the speakers. The speeches of farewell given in the chapel by the visitors will linger long in the minds and hearts of those who heard them, for wrt one accord they will remember the spirit of service which is being instilled in the race through the Tuskegee idea. This sentiment was convincingly expressed by Judge E. O. Brown of the Illinois Appellate Court in the course of his remarks. Judge Brown, who is also the president of the Chicago Branch of the N.A.C., wrote that of the disastrous European War and the inhuman oppression of the Negro in the country that he had felt himself gripped with a sense of depression which bordered on absolute discouragement, but that the story of Negro progress fold in the Negro Year Book which bordered on a constructive partnership of the race made possible together with the spirit of service and optimism which he encountered everywhere on the campus had given him a vision of hope and a new viewpoint. "Dr. Washington has expressed his great pleasure that the sun is shining today and has spoken of the fact that it has been raining before. Upon my word, I hardly knew the difference; the sun has been shining in my heart ever since I was born, and absolutely sincere in saying that it has been one of the most inspiring and enlightening incidents of my life. I have been becoming for the last few months something of a pessimist. Do you know what a pessimist is? He is a person who looks at everything through yellow eyes and thinks that life is not think I am naturally of that disposition, but this cruel, and it seems to me, senseless war, which is going on on the other side of the Atlantic and involving most of the greatest nations on the earth, left me since last fall in the state of mind which prevented me from thinking about view of things; and then I thought about New York — the Negro race in which I have been very much interested for, years. I began to look upon the dark side of things and thought of the yulgar prejudices and unjustistic discriminations things of that sort, which since I have been here seem to me of very small importance after all, for the stars in their clothing are fighting for a people that are doing what you are doing, and I have begun to change my pessimistic view of things to an optimistic one." Large and Representative Party Visits Tuskegee. Unparalleled and unprecedented in the affairs of Negro-American history is the coming to Tuskegee once a year of leevement and representative citizens of our country. On Sunday afternoon, February 21, the palatial train of seven coaches bearing Mr. and Mrs. Julius rosewald and a party of forty-two from Chicago and the West, reached Tuskegee.

The school board has completed its program and has decided to expend for white schools the sum of $50,000, and for colored schools the sum of $15,000. These figures are not secret, but have been published in the Jacksonville daily papers; which fact goes to prove either that the school board is not conscious of any unfairness in such a division or that it is not ashamed to be unfair. According to the census of 1910, the colored population of Jacksonville amounted to 50.8 per cent. of the total population; that is, a little more than half. There are now, perhaps, 35,000 colored people living in that city; and it is safe, to say that there is not a community in the South that has a more industrious, enterprising, progressive and law abiding Negro element than Jacksonville. That this is not a mere assertion is proved by the fact that the Florida metropolis is one of the fastest growing and most prosperous cities, not only of the South, but of the whole country; and if more than one-half of its population was backward and shiftless and lawless it could not make such progress. No matter how energetic the white peo ple might be, they could not carry that amount of dead weight. The colored people of Jacksonville are engaged in every kind of business, from peanut vending to banking. (It is needless to mention how much support they give to white business enterprises.) They work at all the mechanical trades, from mending shoes to building skyscrapers and steamships. They do all of the hard labor. Many of them are home owners, and pay a fair share of taxes. In fact, they are essential contributors to the wealth and prosperity of their city. IS THIS MINISTER GUILTY? It has always given us great pleasure to point to the high moral standing of the New York clergy. The pulpits of our leading churches have been free from scandal and above suspicion. It is, therefore, with deep regret, and with some reluctance, that we refer in these columns to the serious charges that have been lodged against the character of one of the ministers in Harlem. On the other hand, what do they get? They get no such returns as come from holding office and municipal jobs. They benefit only to a small degree from the funds appropriated for public improvements. They have no share in the money spent for public recreation. The only direct return they get is the pittance spent upon the education of their children. This being the fact, is it not just and right and righteous that they should receive a fairer share of the public school fund than is now contemplated by the board of education? We cite this case because it applies in a general way to nearly every city in the South. This minister in question should insist on the fullest investigation and adopt every fair and reasonable measure to disprove these charges, if innocent. If unsuccessful in his efforts to prove his innocence he should be summarily dismissed from the pulpit and shorn of all ecclesiastical rights and privileges to preach the word of God. Neither the church nor the community should for a moment tolerate a minister who is a wolf in sheep's clothing, who advises the members of his flock to lead clean lives, but who practices the worst forms of immorality himself. The pulpit is no place for such a dangerous creature. The strong influence the pulpit wields among the Negro people is undeniable. Therefore, it is absolutely necessary that our ministers be men of high character, not moral pervers. The time has come when the pew should demand that ministers practice what they preach and do not proceed on the theory of "Do as I say, not as I do." By way of comparison, look at the following figures prepared or the World Almanac of 1915, and showing the amount expended per child of school age in eight Northern States: A glance at these two tables brings up the problem in higher arithmetic often propounded by Dr. Booker T. Washington. "If it costs $49.13 a year to educate a white child in Massachusetts, how much education can a black child in South Carolina get for $1.09?" We cannot complain because South Carolina does not spend as much as Massachusetts for education, for the simple reason that she hasn't got it to spend; but we are justified in complaining of the fact that South Carolina pays out $9.65 a year on the education of each white child, and only $1.09 on each colored child. Going back to the case of Jacksonville, the statement made above that the colored people of that city pay their fair share of the taxes has nothing to do with the metis of the question. The theory of political economy which recognizes the landowner as the one who really pays the taxes is not tenable. It is obsolete, and the school boards of Jacksonville and of every other Southern city know it. It is the duty of the ministers of New York, to "turn on the light" and either prove or disprove the serious charges made against one of their number. The 35,000 colored people in Jacksonville live in houses either their own or belonging to somebody else, and they pay either taxes or rent; in either case, they pay taxes. Besides, they contribute their pro rata of all indirect taxes, and no reduction is made for them in fines and licenses. So, for the white citizens, because their names are in the majority on the tax books, to claim that they have to stand the cost of educating the Negro children of the community is as absurd as it would be for the relatively few landowners of New York City to complain that they have to stand the financial burden of educating the thousands and thousands of children whose parents pay rent for tenements and flats. COLLECTOR ANDERSON RETIRED. With the retirement of Charles W. Anderson, Collector of Internal Revenue for the Second District of New York, there goes out of office the last colored man holding a Federal position in the United States under the present Administration; that is, excepting one. President Wilson has made a wholesale removal of colored Republicans and has not appointed a single colored Democrat. This is far from the course that was followed by Cleveland. The South often makes the boast that it has spent hundreds of millions for Negro education, and that it has of its own free will shouldered this awful burden. It seems forgetful of the fact that all of this money has been taken from the public tax funds for education. Let the millions of producing and consuming Negroes be taken out of the South, and it would very quickly be seen how much less of public funds there would be to appropriate for education or any other purpose. As the conditions set forth above are general and concern the whole race, let us consider what we are going to do about the matter. To narrow it down to the case before us, what are the colored people of Jacksonville going to do about it? I can almost hear some reader answer. "Nothing." However, Mr. Anderson not only has the distinction of being the last of all Republicans to go, but he carries the prouder distinction of having made the record of being the Lest, Collector of Revenue the Wall Street district ever had: But something should be done. The matter should at first be laid before the school board in a comprehensive, direct and intelligent manner. If this step should fail, the question should be appealed to the white citizens, at large. It is difficult to believe that there are not enough fair minded white people in Jacksonville to influence such a case as this. If there are not enough so fair, minded as to be able to see the justice of a more equable, if not equal, division, there ought, at least, be enough who from an economic point of view could see the advantages of it. They evidently want their city to continue to develop and prosper; well, it can't if more than half the population is kept back and down. It can't if eight times as much is spent upon a white child in order to give him a chance to become a good citizen as is spent upon a colored child. It would be common sense and good business to reverse the figures. It is, of course, unnecessary to add that the colored Democrats have had all hope crushed out of them so completely that, none of them can feel any disappointment in not being named to fill Collector Anderson's place. If neither of these steps succeed there is only one left, and that is for the colored citizens to raise sufficient money to legally oppose the spending of the proceeds of the bonds in the manner designated by the school board. Let them raise a sufficient amount to take the case, if necessary, to the Supreme Court of the United States. Jack Johnson refused to move to Miami and may fight Willard in Havana. This goes to prove that Jack, in the words of Bert Williams, "may be crazy, but he ain't no fool." THE MURDER NOTES IN THE PRANK CASE. The New York "Globe" in a recent editorial indulged in a bit of ratiocination on the Frank case, and arrived at the conclusion that Frank is, almost beyond doubt, innocent of the murder of Mary Phagan. It reached this conclusion by an examination of the notes that were found near the body of the girl. These notes were written in pencil on paper torn from an old scratch pad. One of them-reads: man that negro hire down here did this I went to—and lie push me down that hole a loti-tall negro black that hoo it wase, long sleam tall negro, i wright while play with me. he said he wood love me, laid down, play like the night witch did it, but that long black negro did buy himself. The mystery of the Frank murder case—if there is any mystery about it—is contained in these notes. The "Globe" points out that Conley is not long and slim and black, but is short and brown; that when he was first arrested he denied that he could write, but that it was afterwards discovered that he could write and that the notes were in his handwriting. Conley accepted story was that he was on the job of "watching the door" when Frank called to him; that he helped to carry the body downstairs, then with Frank returned upstairs and wrote the two notes at Frank's dictation. Getting back to the notes, the following extract from the editorial will show how the "Globe" deduced from them the probability of Frank's innocence: To many Southerners, familiar with Negro modes of thought and expression, these notes furious almost irrefutable proof that they were not written at Frank's dictation. Frank might have had cunning enough to allow Conley to spell as he pleased, but as a Northerner it is scarcely conceivable that he would have thought of introducing the reference to the Negro superstition concerning the night witch. Nor does it seem possible that he would seek to present Mary Phagan as writing the notes while the crime was in progress. The words suggest not the cunning of a college graduate, such as Frank was, but rather the blundering attempt of such a person as Conley to direct suspicion away from himself. Finally, as Conley has shown in his many examinations an ability to seem danger to himself, it is hard to believe that he would have consented to write such notes at Frank's dictation. One can almost hear him say, if such a thing had been suggested: "Look heath, boss, write ya own notes. Use taken, risk enough already." On the other hand, if Conley committed the crime, one can picture him, badly scared and knowing he would be suspected, adopting crude means to throw suspicion on another. If the notes were not in existence it would be difficult to imagine them. But they are among the exhibits in the Frank case, and they are of such a character as almost to establish Frank's innocence. All of this is very interesting and to a great many people will seem quite plausible, but there is some internal evidence in the notes which the "Globe" overlooked. In the first place, it would be the most natural thing for a northerner living in the South, as did Frank, to become familiar with the various Negro superstitions. In fact, these superstitions have been given such wide circulation through the "Uncle Remus", stories and other mediums that there are northerners who never lived in the South who can glibly write in poetry and prose about "night witches" and "hants" and "conjure people." This does away entirely with the inconceivability of Frank being the author or inspirer of the notes. Conceding that Conley is stupid and ignorant, and granting the supposition that he committed the crime and wrote the notes; then we are confronted by another bit of internal evidence that makes the supposition improbable. It is a bit of evidence that is small, but very significant. It is simply this, if Conley is stupid and ignorant he belongs to a class of colored people that never, either in speaking or writing, uses the word "Negro." You can easily call to mind that you have never heard or seen this word used by the low and ignorant class of colored people; and to that class Conley certainly belongs. It is not many years since the more intelligent colored people adopted the word "Negro" in order to secure for themselves a definite racial designation; and, even now, the fitness of the term is a question of dispute among them. But by colored people of Conley's class the word is not only unused, but unknown. A colored man so ignorant as to write the remainder of the notes so badly would never have written "Negro." Conley of his own accord would have written "cullud" or "nigger." It does not seem improbable that he asked the question, "How do you spell 'Negro'? And on being told proceeded to write 'n-e-g-r-o.' COMMENT HERE AND THERE. Some more direct light upon the opinion that President Wilson holds of colored Americans in general and colored Democratis in particular is furnished by the following despatch from Washington: PRESIDENT NOMINATES TEEHEE. Cherokee Indian Selected to Be Register of Treasury. WASHINGTON, March 3.—President Wilson today nominated Houston B. Teehee of Tahlequah, Okla., to be Register of the Treasury, to succeed Gabe Parker, who recently became Commissioner of the Five Civilized Tribes. The Hon. Teehee, of Tahlequah, is a Cherokee Indian, and he was appointed to succeed another Indian; of just what tribe we do not now remember. Somehow, Teehee doesn't seem to be just the sort of name to be on U. S. money; gives a kind of Chinese currency ring. We don't know how "deserving" the new Register may be; but, at any rate, he can give his darker Democratic brethren the Tee! hee! and the Ha! ha! JAPAN OBJECTS TO ALIEN BILL. Montana Measure Stops White Woman From Working for Orientals. HELENA, Mont. March 3—A telegram from Senator Walsh urging caution by the Montana Legislature in considering a pending bill to prevent white women from working in restaurants conducted by Orientals was received here today by Gov. Stewart. The telegram read: "At request of Secretary Bryan I am advising you that the Japanese Ambassador finds some objections to bill pending before Legislature for felling employment of white women in restaurants conducted by Orientals. On suggestion from the same source, Ubeg to urge caution about the measure referred to, in view of the critical state of affairs internationally." The above despatch raises a curious question. Are the zealous Montana statesmen, in their pending bill, meditating an insult to the Japanese Government or do they, feel that the women of their state, unless restrained by law, will throw themselves into the arms of darker lovers and husbands. If the former is intended, we can see why Japan protests. If the latter is intended, we don't see why these women do not rise up and resent what must be a deeper insult. They do strange things in Alabama. For instance, in some sections of that paradoxical state there would be no incongruity in alljourning a prayer meeting in order to participate in a lynching. In its fervent fight against the liquor traffic, Alabama has enacted a law forbidding the sale of any publication, no matter where published, that carries an advertisement of wine, beer or spirits. The New York "World" in an editorial on this law says: We wonder if there are no real wrongs in Alabama that should fire the holy zeal of its crusading populace. In point of illiteracy, it is one of the most degraded States in the Union, only two surpassing it. In regard to child labor, its laws, only recently showing any pretense of recognizing humanity and decency, are among the loosest and the weakest. In relation to the modernized form of slavery known as peonage, it legalizes practices which constantly require the attention of officers of the United States. In the matter of the suffrage, it is habitually and criminally in defiance of the Constitution and the laws. The "World" might have added that a crusade against the crime of lynching would furnish an outlet for as much holy zeal as is ever likely to fire Alabaman breasts: L. W. J. SENATOR ROOT AND HIS SUCCESSOR. With the adjournment of the Sixty-third Congress, Senator Elihu Root retired from public office. The retirement of Senator Root is not only a loss to New York State but to the country at large. His political activities have been of such breadth that he belongs to the nation, rather than to his state. Root's name will go down in the not very long list of Congressional giants. His successor, James W. Wadsworth, is quite a young man, but if ability and preparation will count for anything in a senatorial career, then Senator Wadsworth's future is exceptionally bright. We wish for ex-Senator Root still many years of usefulness as a great citizen of New York, and for Senator Wadsworth a long and fruitful term of public service. The appointment of the new Collector of Internal Revenue was really a Low trick on the colored Democrats of New York. At the close of the European war a powerful man will be required in this country as President. I believe the leaders of the Republican party will go down to Oyster Ray for him. Well, worse things than that could happen. The political wheels of the Republican party are being oiled for the 1916 race. The recent meeting of forty prominent business men at a luncheon at Delmonico's with Chairman D. Hillis is very significant. WHAT THE PEOPLE SAY UNIONS AN EFFECTIVE BAR. To the Editor of The Age. In reply to your editorial inquiry in the issue of February 18, as to whether colored artisans are permitted to work at their trades in New York, I wish to give this list of information. Many of the large trade unions, including Topographical Union No. 5, have once adopted a policy of taking Negroes in their institutions and then giving them no work. White, men are sent wherever there are vacancies and it is only seldom that the Negro mechanic finds an opening. Under the union rules, he must only work in union shops and at the union scale of wages. As a non-player he is free to select his own place and work there. Therefore in New York one will find colored brick-masons, printers, carpenters, etc. both union and nonunion, but I am left to believe with a few exceptions the Negro does better out of the unions in New York. There are hundreds of Negro skilled mechanists in New York, working as whatever they can get to, do other than their trade. G. MASON. Des Molnes, La. (A former resident of New York.) The Woman's Work To the Editor Thursday In consideration that through the goodness of Almighty God we are spared to see the New Year of 1915, I wish by your kind permission to make appeal to the young, women of our race to stand for the beat and highest in life. We are living in the day when races and nations are struggling, for a place in the sun and if the honored race is to have a place, will be by our young men and women fighting for high ideals and business integrity. The only room in the light of God's sun for man who can fight for those great principles that count for the best in life. Just a few words to the young women of my race. Dr. W. H. Brooks, of St. Mark's M. E. Church of New York City, says that "the women are the flower of any race." What has a to be proud of if the women of his race come up to the required standard? Society? Girls, don't be carried away about the colors of the white lights, nor the blues of the brass bowl. But rather stand and be true to yourself, to your race and to your God. It is for you to say whether our race shall live in the future. God has given you, this power. It is a great noble one. Will you abuse this great privilege, or will you preserve yourself for the great work has given you to do? many of minds, I know what &a- young women do. I alone has to contend with, especially when she must work for a wage that hardly provides the bare necessities of life. And oftimes a poor fortunate girl should be given another chance in life. But say, won't you try and light just a little longer? And remember, that just after the darkest hour comes the soft gray light of the school yard, where children watch the young man; pollies can make him a great statesman; and the church can point to him the Great Christ, who is the very life of your souls. But it is left to you to make him a strong moral character. Will you do it? Outside of my own dear mother, I am a poor woman. I growed, the best and soundest advice I ever had was from a real womanly woman who was young but who had a knowledge that saved me from rain. This dear girl has also returned to her maker. And I believe that a star has been added to her grown. Remember that your ways and conduct in life have a great beauty toward placing your race in the light of God's sun. informing To the Editor of The Age: Too much cannot be said in praise of the weekly editorials in The Age by your contributing editor, James W. Johnson, under the caption of "Views on the Press," and of the quality, indeed, and are always timely and informing. Especially interesting was your comment on an editorial appearing in the Atlanta "Constitution" on the Monticello lynching. It is encouraging to read such editorials as the one in which it is not about time that the Negro put to the test the sincerity of those whites in the South who claim to disapprove of lynching, but are unable to put a stop to it, notwithstanding their wealth, position and influence". Jersey City, N. J. "When You See It in The Age You Can Depend On It." It gives me genuine pleasure to congratulate you on the strong editorial that appear in your well edited paper. They have the right ring and are calculated to should healthy sentiment for our race. You and your contient are making The Age "go" and I am personally proud that our roar in coast of such a reliable and easy paper in your section of this country.

First: Emmanuel Church The Rev. Richard Michael Boldin, pastor, First Emmanuel Church, 105 W. 130th street, said that the mind giving obliquely existent social and religious problems existent social and religious assurance of the highest and best life. The standard for the words and acts of men is based upon tradition, habit and custom. Experience and prejudice, become the master teacher of men's self-interest. They are not in themselves trustworthy disciplinarians. The old but ever present attempt of men to reason their way through spiritual and physical restrictions has not and cannot be good will, harmony and everlasting life to them. A man, the most inpatient being known in this world, is not able to perceive pure reason and acts to be the result of the same. To teachers and leaders of groups call upon the immamuel, the Lord of Life. The result of their interview with the Rev. Richard Michael Boldin into what he hopes for, the best things and Eternal Life. This way is Faith. First men must be shown the difference between seeing this sense world as men. The busyman are greedy, selfish, cruel their interest self-centered. The businessman are altruistic, sympathetic their interest is God centered for they are co-workers with Him. Second the people must be taught to understand that the undelbying sense of satanic principles and that Lucifer is the prince and ruler. His cosmic principles force, selfishness, ambition and pleasure interested in his time imprisoned and powerful national and world system. His great armies and art and navies protect and defend, commercial rivals. His cities and states are dressed; they are crowned with the crown that are scientifically and the crown on the outside. We need therefore that duty demands us to tell you that the Immamu is Baleer and Eternal things Eberhard and His Klunders and His Life of Eternal Love. The way is through faith, pure spiritual faith a faith such as the Holy Spirit inhabits into the soul or mind. Spirit interests into the divine human interest. A faith that makes one know that he is radiated by and with invincible power a faith that gives the ability to overcome the sense-world and cause one to triumph in the spirit-world. This faith gives us the cosmic consciousness, we live in the sublime world of spirit. The beauty, sweetness, and grace of God the sense-world and be realized May God, our Father, Jesus the Lord Immaculado and the Holy Spirit, our teacher-helper, bring you to understand that God is All and in All.

MAKE MERRY AT THE LAFAYETTE AN A1 BILL TUESDAY evening a patron was heard to declare while leaving the Lafayette Theatre after the last performance: "The show here this week is certainly up-to-date. Just as good as the one at the Albumbra, the only difference I see being that they have more acts on the bill further down the street." The remark made by this patron seems to represent the views of the majority of Harlem theatregoers—that this week's bill from a point of merit compares favorably with the class of vaudeville entertainment offered at the "hur time" houses. The strongest argument that the brand of amusement furnished by the Lafayette the first half of the week is all that it is represented to be the big houses at each performance; for it must not be overlooked that we are now in the midst of Lent. But more about who is who on the bill. First there is S. H. Dudley, always a real drawing card in Harlem, who has come to New York this time with the most creditable vaudeville act of his career. And the comedian's partner, Patrick the little showgirl as much intelligence and tenacity as ever. There is more of a punch in Mr. Dudley's two songs than those rendered by him in recent years, and his talk is S. H. DUDLEY chock-full of wittecisms and toques of local interest. The comedian is gifted with an ability to tell biting truths sugar-coated with humor, and even the men in the audience who have not been on friendly terms with work for some time found themselves laughing heavily at Mr. Dudley's joke about those in Harlem who are voluntary members of the army of unemployed. Dudley had brought us an in-harmful vanderbilt, which is highly recommended to lovers of good comedy. Downs & Gomer have a singing art which is a credit to the theatre pro- fession in general and the rare in which they belong in particular. To use the vernacular of the booking agent, there is not a singing art in the business any more "regular" than that presented by Downs & Gomer, which is refined and shows its marked advantage two artists. And in this regime a white singer can use operatic solfagams and numbers on the order of "Ave Maria" and then "bring down the house" if it is truly a compliment to their artistic ability. Downs & Gomer are always working and just have been booked for ten weeks over one of the well-known circuits. But there is a reason: They have the goods. were most comical and side-splitting. It is said that the mule must be covered with a coat of glue before anyone can remain aloof over a fraction of a second. The Four Karpos, expert club throwers, showed Hardemites how to handle Indian clubs, and much of their week is very spectacular. The female member of the quartet plays a correct solo and accompanies herself on the piano. The sketch dealing with the adventures of an advance woman for a stranded show in the rural districts wailaughable, and Burton & Watts, who have again joined hands as a vaudeville team, pleased in jokes, dance and song. For the second half of the week S.H. Dudley and Downs & Gormer will head another strong hall "Next week the management will present several big-time acts, including Miller & Tales. Original night held every Friday evening, gives promise of making the other country stars perform.

Music School Settlement Notes On Sunday, March 7, a representative audience attended the recital at the Music School Settlement and enjoyed a delightful program rendered by Miss Martina Johnstone, violinist, and Miss Greta Topoldie, Swedish soprano, who appeared in place of Dr. Charles Winfred Lourdas. Miss Johnstone showed great skill as a violinist and won the hearty approval of the audience. Miss Topoldie was a tremendous success. She is the possessor of a delightful personality and a pleasing voice which she uses in an admirable manner. Her song, "The Butterfly," gave evidence of unusual technique. On Sunday, March 14, a very large audience is expected to Walter Dhamnash, conductor, of the New York Symphony Orchestra.

With the Bowlers Thursday night's contest was easy for the Speedwell team, and they won from Alpha and Avon in grand style. Alpha beat Avon, thus moving near to second place. The Speedwell bowled the first 800 pts of the series, having bowled 814 and 822, which is the highest score bowled during the tournament. Marshall of the Speedwell put up the class bowling when he bowled 206 in the first game and came back in the next with 187. Alpha is rounding to form and should give a good account of herself, in the near future, while the Avons are still bowling away off from their last year's form. Still, you can't tell when the Trotley Dodgers will come to life and make things interesting for the other teams. Thompson, Storker and Price of the Avons are up among the headliners when they are in form, and Matthews is putting the ball down the groove with persistence, and if they find their stroke on the ground. Everyone was glad to see Darden back in the living line and it is to be hoped to will remain on the Alpha team the rest of the season. The scores were as follows: Alpha. Avon.

Both contestants showing their nervousness and inexperience by frequent misses. The second game between the New York Age and the New York Age was a score of 60 to 25.
