NEGRO MONEY INSTITUTIONS UNITE-BIRTH OF NEW REIGN The Alabama Penny Prudential Savings Bank Is New Organization's Title With Paid Up Capital, $86,595 FIVE BANKS INCLUDED IN THE CONSOLIDATION The Alabama Penny Savings Bank, Founded by the Late Dr. W. R. Pettiford, Combines With the Prudential Savings Bank---Making Financial History. STRONGEST AND GREATEST NEGRO BANK IN THE WORLD Branch Banks at Anniston, Selma and Montgomery, Alabama, are Incorporated in the New Organization. Officers and Directors are Men of Moral and Financial Standing. An Object Lessson Showing the Race's Support of Negro Enterprises. Birmingham, Ala., March 16. It was no little event that happened in this city on March 5, 1915, fifty years from slavery, when the strongest banking institution ever owned and operated by colored people was brought into existence. The Alabama Penny Savings Bank and the Prudential Savings Bank were consolidated under the name of the Alabama Penny Prudential Savings Bank, with a paid-up capital of $86,595; and this capital will immediately be increased to $100,000. This new and greater bank includes the two parent institutions in Birmingham and the three branch banks in the respective cities of Amston, Selina, and Montgomery, Alabama. Special to The New York Acr. From this event, the colored race may count progress in a new direction; for this consolidation is the forerunner of a new day for the Negro in the United States. For many reasons, colored people have seemed to find it difficult to "get together" and cheerfully work for one definite program and to "support" and foster one distinct race enterprise. Selfish personal ambitions, racial timidity, proneness to sit down and whine about hardships, lack of mutual confidence—all have contributed to the backwardness of the race in promoting great enterprises. But the men who brought these two strong banks together under one management have proven that the Negro is finding himself and learning what he can do. - Significance of the Consolidation. Here were two banks which had demonstrated the abilities of their respective officers to conduct such institutions on safe and safe lines: The Alabama Penny Savings Bank, twenty years ago and the pioneer Negro bank in this country, had successfully lived through stress and storm, through prosperity and periods of national expansion, until it had won the honor of being the strongest Negro bank in the world; and its first president the late Dr. W. R. Pettiford, and some of its other officers, were known throughout the United States. In one national pane and crisis it was one of the only two banks in Birmingham which could pay money while all others were forced to use script. There was, therefore, no reason for it to consolidate with any other bank, for it had sufficient strength of its own to stand as it had done. The Prudential Savings Bank was organized by younger men who, during the four years of the bank's life, had kept making it stronger and stronger, useful and more useful. There was no ordinary reason why this bank should not have continued to stand alone as before. "Doing" for Race Pride Instead of Talking. But it there, was no "ordinary" reason for consolidating these two successful banks; there was one extraordinary reason for doing so, and that was that by the union of the two banking institutions there might be born in the "Magic City" one transiently great Negro bank whose combined resources and prestige and wisdom and experience might build up, not only for the colored people in Birmingham, but for the race everywhere, greater prestige in "the financial world." To accomplish this an uniselfishness had to be shown by a large number of prominent Negroes such as but not thus far been recorded in the larger doings of the race in this country. The men, be it said to their everlasting credit, met the task like men who are dreaming, like men who are talking, like men who are working for a better day; and before this mere thing that the officers and stockholders of the two banks have done, those who are, always talking about, the duty of leading Negroes if they would be counted "race men," must be silent must hold their peace; for the misbehorses which makes prominent men hold factory and honored property; that other's may come to the hands of a greater organization than those directed to the unselfishness, builds a race and upon which he pours unstinted praise.

It has been said disparagably that Negroes will not support Negroes in business; but what shall we say of the Birmingham Negroes who have supported the Alabama Penny Savings Bank for twenty-five years" and who, as willingly, supported the Prudential Savings Bank, as soon as it came into person, were colored persons everywhere to look into the management of these banks and find the secret, which is absolute honesty and sound business principles. Without friction or bitterness, the stockholders and officers simply got together and did a great thing; and nobody has been called a thief, "grafter," rascal, traitor, nor any of the other names that have been so readily employed to describe colored people who try to execute large programs—the race is learning; and Birmingham Negroes are actually doing something. Every platform, public organ, pulpit and forum should spread the tidings that a new gospel—the gospel of doing—is being preached and followed in Birmingham, and is to be preached and followed more and more among the race. INTEREST IN HOWARD ORPHANAGE Unusual interest is being shown in the monster benefit to be given at the Lafayette Theatre, in aid of the Howard Orphanage and Industrial School on the afternoon of Sunday, March-28. The features of the program will be an orchestra of seventy pieces, under the direction of James, Reese Europe, J. Rosamond' Johnson, supervision of the Music School Settlement for Colored People, in songs, and addresses by Hon. Charles W. Anderson and Dr. Katherine t. Davis. The price of admission in the orchestra will be 50 cents and 25 cents in the halcony, except the first four rows. The program will start at 3 o'clock. CQURT ASKED TO-STOP VICIOUS MOVIE SHOW Warrants were sworn out by the N. A. A. C. T. against D. W. Grunti, proprietor of the moving picture, "The Birth of a Nation," now running at the Liberty Theatre, charging that the picture was vicious and a menace to public morals. The case was called on Tuesday in the Morrisania Court, but was transferred to the Jefferson Market Court and the hearing set for Friday, March 19. inquiry by THE AGE at the Mayor's office on Wednesday elicited the information from one of the secretaries to the Mayor to the effect that Mayor Mitchell has sent a member of his staff to see the film. The report from this attachment, it is ad, was unattractive to the parts of the film relating to the Negro and reconstruction happenings. The Mayor's secretary also states as his belief that the picture is calculated to have an injurious effect upon the relations between the white and colored people and that it should be stopped. The Mayor is deeply interested and is looking up the law in the matter that he may find out the extent of his authority and will probably have a representative at the Jefferson Market Court on Friday when the case is called for its hearing. A strong effort will be made to secure legal action by the courts or by the city authorities to the end that the objectionable features of the film may be eliminated. Many of the most representative people of the community have condemned the picture, many objecting also to the representation of the assassination of President Lincoln. ADVERTISING:AGENT: ENTERS A DISCLAIMER THE AGE has received from Mrs. Florida Ruffin Ridley; 131 Kent street Brookline, Mass, the following correspondence aent the recet publications in this paper about the statements alleged to have been made by David Evans, advertising manager of the Curtis Publishing Co., concerning advertising by the large national advertisers and the Negro trade. The correspondence is self-explanatory. Mrs. Ridley's Letter To the Editor of The Age: A few weeks ago you published a book about the Publishing Company by the undersigned, protecting against an article written by a Mr. Evans, an attache of the Curtis Publishing Company, which reflected upon the social and financial standing of the company you knew give space to an account of the conclusion of the matter? The Curtis Publishing Company was informed that the Colored Women's Club of America had pledged to conduct research on those firms only, which showed no discrimination, made no reflections or insulting references to the race in the conduct of business and that as the patronage represented by the Women's Club dollars a year, it was worth while for advertisers to consider them. That this letter had effect is evi- Office of Adv. Director Jan. 27th, 1915. Mrs. Florida Ruffin Ridley, Chairman Dear Mr. Ruffin, Your letter addressed to our Philadelphia office, has been referred here for attention. The article you refer to in the December issue of "Advertising and Selling" entirely misrepresents Mr. Evans attitude and statements. The article you refer to in behalf of Mr. Evans part to cast reflections upon the colored race. He is a Southerner himself and has the greatest sympathy for the Negro. He is familiar with the most excellent work that has been done by educational and is perfectly aware that there are many intelligent and prosperous citizens in the Negro race. The publication, referred to will undoubtedly make an explanation in the next issue. Yours way truly, EDW. W. HAZEN, Adv. Director. The lesson is plain—withdrawing trade from them who discriminate in weapon of tromending power—money talks. And while the Supreme Court has recently declared it unconstitutional to call a boycott—the Women's Club still have the privilege, which they will vigorously push, of directing the trade of those they represent away from undesirable industries. Very truly, FLORIDA Ruffin Ridley, Chairman Boycott Com Brookline, Mass. THURSDAY, MARCH 18, 1915. No Cost to Porters for. Membership in Association Except Death Assessment of Fifty Cents, and Pullman Company Will Add 5 Per Cent to Amount Collected For the first time in the history of The Pullman Co. recognition was given to the deserving men who have served so faithfully in the capacity of porters when at a conference in the Pullman offices at the Pennsylvania Terminal, New York, on Monday, March 15, between representatives of the company and of the porters' an organization was formed which will provide for the payment of a sum approximating $500 to the family of each Negro employee of the Pullman company. The organization is to be known as the Pullman Porters' Benefit Association, embracing the entire country, which is divided into seven zones or divisions. Each zone will have its own administrative officers, but the general control is to be vested in a general committee of seven members, who shall be porters, and elected to serve two cars. There are no initiation fees or dues. On the death of a member an assessment of 50 cents is levied upon each surviving member, and when the total amount collected is ascertained by the treasurer, a normal notice of amount collected is filed with the general superintendent of the Pullman company, and a subscription will be made by the company, which it is said will equal five per cent. of the amount collected. Pullman Officials Present. At the meeting of Monday J. T. Raison, division superintendent of the Pullman company, Philadelphia, presided, and Doctor Kennedy, chief clerk of the Pullman company at Philadelphia, acted as secretary.

Ease of Uniontown, Pa., from Pittsburgh; J. E. Boone of Washington, from Washington and Baltimore. : It was due largely to the influence of Division Superintendent A. J. Grant that the Pullman company has given this辨识应聘 to the worth of its colored employees, and it was the active work of T. M. Blanton of Philadelphia, who is also general agent for the Pullman Porters' Review, a magazine published in Chicago, that the porters were aroused to work.

The youngest, Frank Langston, living near his mother in Washington. Ralph Langston arrived today from New York to attend the funeral. AUGUSTA CITIZENS MAD WITH MOVIE CO. AUGUSTA, Ga., March 16.—The white people of Augusta are indignant over an alleged trick played on them by the Fox Film Corporation, and a mass meeting has been called to pass resolutions denouncing the company. It is charged the film corporation sent a motif picture company to Augusta under pretence of staging "The New Governor." The Mayor was induced to pose, the State militia, to act a scene, 5,000 Augustans played the miob, and after the picture was finished the company was given a great send-off. After the company had returned to the North advertisements of "The Nigger," by Edward Sheldon, appeared, stating that the play was produced in Augusta. This advertisement exposed the decept and stirred Augusta to wrath. As a result, steps will be taken to prevent the exhibition of the film here and in other Georgia cities. It is also proposed to extend the crusade against the film throughout the South. CAMPAIGN FOR HEALTH IN GREATER NEW YORK Many progressive forces in Greater New York are co-operating in making the National Negro Health Week, to be inaugurated, March 21, of permanent value. To impress these facts upon every person possible, health meetings will be held in Greater New York City, beginning on March 21. Health literature pertaining especially to tuberculosis and sanitation will be freely distributed during Health Week. Among the many organizations trying to make this concerted movement an effective one, are the Uptown Neighborhood Club, the Music School Settlement, the West End Workers' Association, the Negro Civic Improvement League, the Lincoln Settlement, Brooklyn, the United Civic League, Ine, the Baptist Preachers' Conference, St. Phillips, Mens' Guild, the Interdenominational Ministers' Alliance, the Y.

C., March 17—On last Friday, when the jury in the United States branch of the Police Court filed into the court room after a deliberation of three hours, minutes, and rendered a verdict of not guilty in the case of the United States against Amplias H. Glenn for assault and battery on W. Calvin Chase, the editor of *The Bee*, it did the most popular thing ever done by a jury in Washington. It will be recalled that Glenn is a school teacher in the M Street High School hege and is chairman of the examining committee that passes on the qualifications of candidates for positions in the colored public schools. It is alleged that Chase wanted a Miss Maxi-ield, who is employed in the Nassau office, much more than the Normal office. He claimed that Supergrendient Struce and Mr. Glenn had promised him the place. Things didn't seem to be coming his way, so he went down to Glenn's office to huffle him into doing what he wanted done. Glenn broke a chair over his head and fired him out of his room. Chase hald Glenn arrested and the trial took place on Friday. The court room was crowded with witnesses and other spectators. Twenty-four witnesses took the stand and twenty-four of them testified for Glenn. Whitefield McKinlay Opens Fire. There were many interesting situations developed by the different witnesses. For instance, Whitefield McKinlay, former Collector of the Port here, began the attack on Chase in severe language, and when the bars were once down the other witnesses simply fell over themselves getting in their hard knocks against the man who had run rough shod over, everybody here for so many years. When Superintendent Bruce was on the stand and had testified to Chase's bad reputation the District Attorney fished out of, his handle of papers a photograph of Bruce which he had given Chase, with this inscription on it: "To the unique, relentless and fearless one from his friend, R. C. BRUCE." When asked if these words were not intended as a compliment to a friend, Mr. Bruce said "No," and explained them in a manner that would have made Tallybrand, the great juggler of language, ashamed of himself when it comes to making words have a different meaning from that given them by the 'best dictionary' in the English language. Prof. David Houston of Howard University testified that he had never seen Clase before the day of trial and during his four years' residence in Washington he had heard him spoken of hundred-of-times, but he had never heard anyone ay a good thing about him. Dr. Marshall and Dr. Childs, members of the Board of Education; Miss Emma Merritt, director of primary instruction; the Rev. Frank Grimke, Prof. Just and Prof. George W. Cook were among the witnesses. Prof. U. A. Craig of the High School was the late witness for Clarse. ANTI-MARRIAGE LAWS ARE LAWS AGAINST NATURE, SAYS WRITER Annesley Burrowes Claims Intimate Relations Between White and Colored People Cannot be Stopped by Adverse Legislation VIEWS ON SUBJECT GIVEN WIDESPREAD PUBLICITY Gov. Ferris of Michigan Ridiculed by Writer for Seeking to Have Law Passed in State Legislature Prohibiting the Marriage of White and Colored People. "THE PALING OF NEGRO IN AMERICA TO CONTINUE" Burrowes Contends That if Unions Were unnatural the Back Race Would be Coal-Black Today and Negro Would not Present Such a Variety of Colors. Cites Inconsistency of the White Man Special, to THE NEW YORK AGE Detroit, Mich., March 16.—Declaring that intimate relations between whites and blacks cannot be stopped, and that the paling of the Negro race in this country will continue, no matter how many anti-marriage laws are enacted, Annesley Burrowes, a prominent white writer, and newspaperman, has attracted unusual attention by ridiculing Gov. Ferris of Michigan, who has been urging that a bill be passed in the Michigan Legislature for bidding the marriage of white and colored people. Special, to THE NEW YORK ACE. Detroit, Mich., March 16.—Dietween whites and blacks cannot be the Negro race in this country we anti-marriage laws are enacted, a white writer, and newspaperman, by ridiculing Gov. Ferris of Mich bill be passed in the Michigan Le of white and colored people. "The marriage of a white woman to a black man is a thing that white men don't like to think about, and some women share that feeling. "But when the governor of a great state like Michigan digs this question up from the depths, and when state laws are proposed to deal with it, then you've got to think about it, and talk about it, too. For when a people reaches the point when it allows laws to be made for it without interest, and without comment, then it is nearing its jumping-off place, as a nation. There are different things to think about in this section. "One is the opinion of a great ethnologist, a student of the history of many races. "In a thousand years from now, the only trace remaining of the '9,000,000 Negroes now here will be a slight thinge of darkness in the faces of the American people. "That may or may not be true, but observe this, read it twice; and pla it in your memory. The Negro face, roughly speaking, he, been with us only two centuries, and in that time he has jaded a whole lot. You don't often see the Confederate Negro of the older days, unless in the Far South. Meaning of the "Ooms." "Did you ever think what the word octetron means?" No? "Well, then, it means that in three generations of the same family there has not been a single marriage between nersus of the same blood. "It means that in each generation there has been a union between a person of Negro blood and another person of white blood. "You can tell a quadron by looking closely. The octopon leaves you uncertain, and you scan the finger mails and look for kinks in the glossy hair. 'But after the quadron, and the octoion, there are no more 'oongs.' The children of the white man and the octoion woman sink into the mass of the white race, and are recognized no more. Doctors say there are few children from these last unions, and that such children do not, propagate. But, that's a good deal of a guess, for when they do propagate the 'Negro' ancestry is forbidden, or concealed.' The paling of the Negro race has been going on ever since the first slave in American soil—imperceptibly at first, not until at last with the realistless momentum of an Abhine gialler. "They are going to enter the class with King Cunie, who bade the fides to cease flowing, and Joshua, who ordained to return still. "But they were drastic at first. They will allow the sun to roll on a white, and will content themselves, at present, by stopping the glacier. They think they can do it with ten lines. Michael bade them propose to make a law, to prevent blacks and whites from marrying, and if they do marry to punish them with a term in the state prison. But this tremendous movement—the blades of the blacks—which Governor Perry intended to seek of anti-marriage laws, has not resulted from marriage. "Everybody knows that. "It has resulted from illicit unions that do anti-marriage laws and stop—but the unions has been allotted to white men and millions, and millions of them—mulattoes, quadroons, and the other oms. . Law Is Inadequate. "Suppose a law had been passed fifty years ago, making marriage a crime, would these restrictions of the litigation of coercion, they wouldn't. Then how is it, would to help to paraphrase the law?"

"Wouldn't it have been better if these millions of illicit unions had been legal-unions, blessed by the church, and sanctioned by society? "I'm not saying. I leave it to you. "What would have been the result anyway? "Wouldn't these millions of illegitmates have had the support, the education, the pride, the position, which their white fathers could, and should, and would have given them? "And, wouldn't the whole immense, struggling mass have been a million-times the better for it? "Don't get mad now. Don't spit and swear, and call the writer of these lines a monster. That's a stock argument just now. Any four can offer it. "Stick to the facts. Think them over. Do honest, and fair. Answer the question. "Wouldn't those millions of part-colored illicitmates have been the better for it if the fathers who begot them had accepted the responsibility, and had done their duty by them, as God has said fathers should do? "That would be the nation, and the white man, the best the better for it, had this justice then done? "If not, then fatherhood is a life and a mocracy. Don't tell us that these unions were formed only by men of the lowest types, because it isn't true, and you know it isn't true. "Such unions have been participated in the men's ranks, not only in the South, but for that matter, right here in this Detroit of ours, where life is so well worth living." "There have been men whose memory is revered today by all the millions of the American people, but who did not disdain these unions, and also who slak and suffer, to let their children slak and suffer, to let their local support and the moral support which they owed them, and have paid them, but which they owed them." Question of Taste. "People are fond of calling the union of whites and blacks unnatural, but is it so?" "Look the question straight in the face, even if you don't like it. I don't like it, even if you do it, but I'm looking right at it now." "If black unions between blacks and whites were unnatural, there wouldn't be the liquorism and hundreds of thousands, and millions of them, that there are." "If they were unnatural, the black race would be equal black to this day, but they were unnatural there wouldn't be the race, even if it brown, to make the race, even if it brown, let alone the yellow, it now is." "As a cold fact, the slaughter which most white people have to these unions is not the revolt of future against them." "It is simply the revolt of taste—the feeling that a Boat drummel would contain when he was served in a breakfast with a perfectly whipped dish of salt pork and molasses." "Misogeny does not suit the taste of Governor Ferris and his wise lawyers, and they have wisely concluded that anybody whose chief differs from theirs should be sent to jail." "In the West, Trinity Islands legal minister John White and women of Negro bloodsmen common, and many bishops of Wesleyan church function owe their sorrow to these unions." "The black women of India have married many a man of white blood, and brought up respectable families thereby." "One of the most decent, well-behaved and conscientious women I ever knew was a white-faced, African Scotchwoman married to a black African." "She was employed, on frequent occasion on an extra servant, in my mother's house, and was brought up at most ostinable, 'family of' mulatto of them, of them was my own nurse, and was my own allowance." rising and his three wife lawyers to make laws against such a nation as that. Law Against Nature: "That marriage was a natural and rage, and its lesions proved to be law against it is just death, nature and law against it is just death, nature has possessed it in the minds of men and women a strenuous public attraction to their own purposes, an oratory person to it, the desire of the short or late life, the desire of the short or late life, to make it become the degree of the law for the trade.

Societies and other organizations should take an active part in these meetings. In reply to an editorial inquiry made in The Age of February 18, we received a letter, that was published in last week's issue, which states that long ago the New York trades unions adopted a policy of taking Negroes into their organizations and then giving them no work. Our correspondent went on to say that hundreds of skilled mechanics in New York are working at whatever they can find to do because they can get no work at their trades. This brings us up against segregation of another kind. It is wise and proper to condemn segregation at all times and under all proper circumstances. It is an evil which we must fight continually. While condemning segregation, however, in Washington and in the South, we should not fail to give attention to this other kind of segregation right at home, which means, more to the success of the masses of our people in Northern cities than we can imagine. The kind of segregation, which, practiced in New York, in Philadelphia, in Boston and in Chicago, debars a colored man from having an equal chance with the white man in the earning of a living and segregates him in the most vital and fundamental manner. We should protest here in the North against the kind of segregation which prevents a colored man from laying brick on a brick wall, from working at the carpenter's bench with a white man, which prevents him from practicing the trade of an electrical engineer, or a steam fitter, or a plumber. We should protest against the kind of segregation which confines colored people to the position of running elevators in offices or in department stores. We should-protest against the kind of segregation which throughout the North tends to make of us a mental class of people and says: "Thus far shall thou go and no farther." Let us speak out strongly and in no uncertain terms against the industrial segregation, the business segregation, that exists right here in our Northern cities. It is easy to speak out against segregation, that exists one hundred miles away, but with equal emphasis let us condemn the segregation that exists in nearly every office, in nearly every store, in nearly every business concern here in the North, which segregates colored people to mental employment. TALK VERSUS RESULTS. In another column of The Age we carry an unusually interesting item of news from Birmingham, Alabama. This news letter shows what tremendous strides our brethren in the South are making. The Negro in the South seems to be talking little but getting telling results. Let us emulate our brethren in the South. "Tell the boys 1916 looks good to me."—Ex-President Taft. AN ENGLISHMAN'S VIEWS ON THE NEGRO PROBLEM. It appears that the main purpose of Mr. Cecil Chesterton's presence in this country is to influence opinion in favor of England and her allies in the great war. Mr. Chesterton in the course of his semi-amassadorial lecture tour went as far south as Atlanta. Upon his return to New York he was duly interviewed, and his opinion were published in the magazine section of the New York: "Times." It is needless to say that Mr. Chesterton's trip to Atlanta made him feel qualified to deliver himself on the Negro problem. That question takes up more than half of the interview. Yet, do not think because, his trip South was only a matter of hours that he based his conclusions merely upon hasty observations; on the contrary, he studied the question by reading Thomas Dixon's novels. Here he the near-famous Englishman spoke for himself. He Here let the near-famous Englishman speak for himself. He says: The two things that interested me most in the South were the Negro problem and prohibition. Of course, I am absolutely opposed to the theory of prohibition in general, as an interference with personal liberty, anti-social and undemocratic. But I see that in the South the case is a special one. It really is an aspect of the Negro problem. When I was, in the South I read some novels about the Negro problem that had been recommended to me—the works of Thomas Dixon. I read them as I read Dischra, leaving out the story and paying attention only to the arguments. They seemed to show me this one thing, at any rate, that the South had not yet solved the Negro problem. In the South the people said to me when I asked them about it. "Yes, we have solved the Negro problem." And they said it with it. "Yes, we have solved it that the South really solved it." And so we meet that repatriation of the Negroes might be a solution, and yet I have no answer to those who say that repatriation is fantastic and impossible. The lynchings and burnings show that the relations between the races are not properly adjusted, for where there is cruelty there is always terror. Notwithstanding the fact that he took Thomas Dixon as his mentor, Mr. Chesterton evinced independence of opinion in daring to disagree with the people who declared to him that the Negro problem is already solved. However, it is disappointing to see that, instead of coming up with some novel solution, he himself falls back on the long discarded plan of sending us all back to Africa. In backing up his opinion that the problem is not yet solved he says, "The lynchings and burnings show that the relations between the races are not properly adjusted." It must be admitted that in this sentence he brings to bear a preponderance of proof that ought to crush any argument to the contrary. Still, it is not clear why he felt called upon to bring so much evidence to prove so little. "Not properly adjusted," that would be splendid had he been trying to be funny. But, Mr. Chesterton goes deeper into the subject. He goes on to say: I am inclined to agree with those students of the question who say that the Negro ought not to have been admitted to citizenship. The argument that the Negro should be admitted to all the privileges of the Republic because he was wronged by being brought here against his will is a slave seems to me to have no moral or ethical foundation. I believe that he loads an immoral life to the time and then reforms and becomes a good citizen. Certainly there is absolutely no moral code which would compel him to marry any woman with whom he had immoral relations before his change of heart. After learning that he had prepared himself by reading Tom Dixon, we are not at all surprised that he agrees with the "students" referred to above. But where did he hear the argument that the Negro was admitted to the privileges of the Republic as a sort of indemnity for what he suffered as a slave? Although Mr. Chesterton says he is inclined to agree with those who say the Negro ought not to have been admitted to citizenship, we will give him credit for meaning that national citizenship should have been withheld from the Negro until he proved himself ready for it; then let us say that if such a course had been followed, not in 500 years would the Negro have been able to "satisfactorily" prove his readiness. If Mr. Chesterton's comparison of the whites to the man who leads an immoral life, for a long time is a sample of his reasoning and logic, then we are sorry for the cause of England and the Allies, so far as it depends upon his forensic efforts. Taking the example he cites; if there is no moral code to compel the man to marry the woman with whom he has had immoral relations, it is no proof there ought not be one. Suppose the woman also desires a change of heart? And more than that, suppose it was not the woman's fault? We would not care to say that this paragraph of Mr. Chesterton's interview shows him to be one who believes that a man can demonstrate his "change of heart" by kicking back down into the gutter the woman with whom he has sinned; it would be more charitable to infer, after considering how little this paragraph has to do with the subject, that our Englishman's absolute opposition to the theory of prohibition is founded in strong personal reasons. But, no man can always be wrong. Mr. Chesterton, in concluding his interview, stumbled upon a terrible truth. His words are weak, but the appalling truth stands out strong and bold: Great and many as are England's sins. I hope that she may never have to pay for any of them as America is paying for Negro slavery. For there is - a certain poetic justice about it. The early Americans summed in keeping slaves, so their descendants suffer by having to bear this burden. Poetic justice! He should have said inexorable and eternal justice! THE FRANK CASE AGAIN. The "Globe," in its issues of March 11 and 13, editorially combats our theory of the Frank murder notes. Says the "Globe" in its issue of the 13th: The trouble with this statement (statement in Tue Aca) is that it collides with the facts. Letters that Conley wrote to a sweetheart have been examined and they show the repeated use of the word "Negro." Irrefutable evidence thus knocks endwise the generalization of Tue Aca. The only effect of this further evidence is to make us doubt that Conley wrote the "Sweetheart" notes. As we have said, if Conley was shrewd and intelligent enough, if he had sufficient cunning and initiative, to conceive and carry out the idea of writing letters to throw guilt on some one else, he would have been shrewd, intelligent and cunning enough not to have written the letters at all. For the least glimmer of common sense would have shown him that such notes as were written would direct suspicion to the Negroes employed at the pencil factory, and would especially narrow it down to himself. But, if Conley is ignorant and stupid, it is easy to imagine an intelligent accomplice convincing him of the wisdom of laving the guilt on some "long, sleam tall Negro." Then we can hear him asking, "How do you spell 'Negro?' and then proceeding to write n-e-g-r-o. The "Globe" goes on to say: It is not difficult to discover the reason why a half-literate man of Conley's type should spell Negro correctly, while spelling other words phonetically. It has been noted that even the worst spellers spell their own names correctly, even though long and complicated. It is because a natural egism leads them to take special interest in a symbol so closely related to themselves. We maintain that if Conley belongs to the low, ignorant class of colored people; the word "Negro" is not a symbol closely related to him. The term, especially in the South, is confined to use among the better class of colored people, and is not yet completely used and accepted by them. Not even do intelligent Southern white people "Negro." Of course, apart from any evidence of the murder scene, unusual or external, the most convincing proof of Cookey's innocence is the fact that he is still alive. For it is impossible to conceive that there could be any prejudice against Jew or Gentile, Greek or Barbarian, as bitter as would be against a black man in such a case as this. We wish to take this opportunity of expressing our appreciation of the practice made by the "Globe" of using capital N in Negro. BRIEUX'S TRUE OPINION In our issue of February 1911, we had an article on the visit to the Decatur-Street dives which certain Atlanta citizens provided as entertainment for M. Eugene Brioux, the great Frenell dramatist, and one of the forty inmortals of France. This article brought a letter us from M. Brioux. The letter is in French, and the following is a translation: In our issue of February 11, Decatur Street dives which certain entrainment for M.

Fifth Avenue, New York. To the Editor of THE ACE: I have just seen a copy of your paper in which there is a comment on the account of a visit which I made to the Negro quarter in Atlanta. That account provided me a great deal, because it contained sentence concerning the Negro population which no one author to state as coming from me, an opinion which I did not consider necessary to correct; it as I thought it would pass unnoticed; but it has arrived your feelings, I wish to tell you that I did not at all enjoy that visit. I went to visit Tuskegee Institute. I was present with all the students at a Sunday evening service. And I cannot believe that the teachers at Tuskegee can doubt my sympathy for their work, nor my admiration for that great man, Booker T. Washington. I knew who he was before I left France, but I had not dared to believe that his efforts had been crowned with such great success. That which particularly struck me was that at Tuskegee they know how to avoid the error of making distinctions. They prepare teachers for elementary schools, they give practical instruction, they teach the trades. I was also greatly attracted by the discipline of all and the dignity of care. We are glad to get M. Brioux's letter, to learn his true opinion and to know that he had also seen something of the Negro in the South at his best; and we summoned our almost forgotten French enough to tell him so in reply. A MODEL LETTER. For the past two years Jacksonville, Fla. has had a mayor who, to use the softest language possible, had no special love for his fellow colored citizens. A few weeks ago an election was held and a new mayor who has always been friendly was elected. Mr. J. I. Blodgett, a prominent and wealthy colored citizen, wrote the new mayor a letter that was afterwards published in the local papers. The letter rends as follows: Jacksonville, Fla., February 23, 1915. Hon. L. E. T. Bowden: Dear Sir-I do not think that your most ardent white supporters could be any happier your election to the office of mayor of this city than you. Every self-respecting colored man in the city feels the same joy. As mayor of this city at the time of the great fire of 1901 I can never forget the fair and impartial treatment you gave to the colored people in their distress. You were mayor of the whole people. Serving under you as president of the colored relief committee in the fire times, I have always been a man of great courage in times and under conditions that needed brains and manhood. While air politics I know you are a staunch Democrat, yet in public office you have always been too big to do any harm to my people. You have always helped the deserving ones of us and have always stood ready to defend and protect us in an official way if we were right. It is no schoolboy's job to be the official head of a great, progressive city like Jacksonville, but under your leadership our city government will be harmonious in all of its departments and will put on new life. Your election was a great triumph, and, though under your white primary law I could not vote for you, I prayed for your election, for though you are white and I am black, your city are identical. Success to your administration is the touch of your friend. J. H. BLODGETT We reproduce the above letter because it is a model of good sense and diplomacy. If more colored men in the cities North and South followed this method of letting fair and friendly white men know that their acts are noted and appreciated, and of serving notice on the other kind of white men that we are taking account of their acts also, even though we may be powerless to resent and prevent them, a great deal of good could be accomplished. J. W. J. THE HAITIAN COMMISSION We cannot understand why the colored Democrats could not at least bring about the appointment of one colored man on the Haitian Commission. The same crowd of colored people who helped elect Mr. Wilson were continually finding fault with both Mr. Roosevelt and Mr. Taft when they were in office, but it should be borne in mind that Mr. Taft gave the colored people proper recognition when a commission was appointed to visit Liberia. sumbled decided to ask every club woman to give 10 cents on September 22, the anniversary of the issuing of the emancipation, as her mite toward this monument to be erected over Harriet Tubman's grave. No mention was made of a public park, read or any other place, where her grave was unmarked. Our meeting closed July 5, and on the appointed day, not one hundred women had complied with our request, and at this writing, not over one-tenth of the 4,000 women we respected and almost eleven months have clashed. It is easy to talk but hard to do or alter results. We then made an appeal WHAT THE PEOPLE SAY The Harriet Tubman Monument The Editor of the A560 Perhaps it might be well for the Empire State Federation of Women's Clubs to speak through its president concerning, the monument to, to be erected for Harriet Tubman. We know that people often are ready to jump in "where afraid fear to cread" and to give expression to the wildest statements, not knowing where they speak. I trust that the people who are afraid and conscious of the "great many" spoken of so curiously by one writer. On June 12, 1914, the white people of Auburn created a table to the people of New York. A study was asked to contribute, but you will be surprised and I shush to tell the amount contributed by "Negroes," the chairman, Mr. Charles G. Adams, had some difficulty in raising $50.00. On June 12, 1914, the people of history as a memorable one, when a chorus of one hundred and fifty white men, women, sing and the dignitaries of State and city were on the stage, the speaker of the occasion, representing the Negro manhood, and myself representing the Negro womanhood, we saw this tablet given in the city, accepted by the Mayor, and ordered in the Caygun County Court House. I had suggested to our federation that we erect a monument to Harriet Tubman in the form of an Aged Home for Colored People, as that had always been her heart's desire. I did not quite age the effervescence of her life, but I made a stone for this speaking it was severely criticised. However, at our last State meeting, Mrs. Marie Jackson Stuart, representing the Harriet Tubman Neighborhood Club, made an 'excellent' plaque for the Negro women of the community, help her club which desired to erect a monument over her grave, as her grave was unmarked. The women of the State in convention as we had an article on the visit to the min. Athena citizens provided an ex- eux, the great French dramatist, and nance. This article brought a letter to is French, and the following is HOTEL, NETHERLAND, Fifth Avenue, New York. For paper in which there is a comment made to the Negro quarter in Atlanta, great deal, because it contained a sen- tence, which we could not have the authority to which is not mine. I did not con- tought it would pass unnoticed; but wish to tell you that I did not at all state. I was present with all the stu- ce. And I cannot believe that the sympathy for their work, nor my baker T. Washington, I knew who he not dared to believe that his efforts successes that at Tuskegee they know instances that at Tuskegee they know teaches they prepare teachers for local instruction; they teach the trades, discipline of all and the dignity of Yours respectfully, BRIZZU. Of writing a book on the Negro ques- tion's letter, to learn his true opinion on something of the Negro in the closed our almost forgotten French LETTER Souville, Fl. has had a mayor who, sible, had no special love for his weeks ago an election was held and a friendly was elected. Mr. J. I. II, colored citizen, wrote the new words published in the local papers. Souville, Fl., February 23, 1915. Your most ardent white supporters rection to the office of mayor of this colored man in the city feels the time of the great fire of 1901 total treatment you gave to the colored major of the whole people. Serving the entire community in the fires, I kind of stuff you were made-of in need brains and manhood. While in remembrance, yet in public office you have to my people. You have always have always stood ready to defend we were right. It is no schoolboy's sat, progressive city like Jacksonville, government will be harmonious in all new life.

J. W. J. sumbled decided to ask every club woman to give 10 cents on September 22, the anniversary of the issuing of the emancipation, as her mite toward this monument to be erected over Harriet Tubman's grave. No mention was made of a public park, read or any other place where she was graved; we unmarked. Our meeting closed July 5, and on the appointed day, not one hundred women had complied with our request, and at this time we had 4,000 club women have resigned, and almost eight months have elapsed. It is easy to talk but hard to do; certain results. We then made in appeal to one hundred Negro women of the 4,000 club women each, not one-quarter of that number responded, and yet they say it is easy. is to the location, Harriet Tubman, before her death picked out the place of her memorial where she wished her lady to be in an out of the way ditch, it is not in an out of the way ditch, hidden place, but near the force and near the main entrance, facing the Parker street from which her funeral committee expected there, will be in a plaque that "the who runs may read a poem will not even, have to cross the same." I see no reason for this discussion need be carried on concerning our federation will do in July. We are seeking to erect this monument over her public can erect another anywhere that she is cheap, but it takes money to erect ments and it will be a GREAT TASK greater than the gentleman imagining him to him to Mr. J. W. Thompson of Rockefeller in honor who erected the monument in honor Frederick Douglass. Some years ago a movement was on foot to erect a memorial to John Brown. I do not know, where the monument is, at this writing. By all means let us have a monument erected to Tubman in a public WHERE THE WORLD MAY BE AND LOVE THE WORLD AND BE WELLOW? Our State motto is: "The end crowns the work" and so it will be in this monument movement. Sincerely yours, MARY B. TALBERT, President of Empire State Federation. Buffalo, March 5. A. M. E.

LATZ CO. ATLANTIC CITY N.J. The Bekford HOTEL MELBOURNE St. Louis, Mo. --- (BY LESTER A. WALTON) A N incident occurred at the Lafayette Theatre Monday afternoon showing how widely divergent are the views of our colored and white citizens on the question of the colored American's mannerisms—how he generally acts and conducts himself to-day in real life. That an educational campaign must be inaugurated to erase false notions from the minds of those who think they do but know us not is painfully evident, and this mental emancipation should commence as soon as possible. 'On the bill at the Lafayette-Theatre Monday was a white female performer who for fifteen years has played on the big time doing a single gurn. She is known in theatrical parlance as "a coon shouter," and she makes up as a colored woman of the tantalizing brown variety. Some years ago, about the time May Irwin and other white artists were in the limelight as "coon song shouters," this singer in question was a big hit in vaudeville—usually a veritable riot wherever she appeared. She is the possessor of a good singing voice and showed such skill in making up that when, at the end of her turn, she disclosed her true racial identity, she gave her audience (that is, the white patrons) a pleasant surprise. So after nearly sixteen years showing white people how colored people sing this variety artist was given an opportunity Monday afternoon to let the colored folk see how they chirped "coon songs" and those of the ragtime brand. But the efforts of the lady fair under a coat of tan was not convincing, and some of the disorderly patrons in the audience showed their disapproval by hissing. It was obvious that many promptly realized in the beginning that they were not listening to the real thing. When the management approached the singer after her appearance and suggested that she make a few changes in her act she became indignant, declaring that for sixteen years she had worked in the best valdeville houses in the country and no manager had made suggestions to her before. She could not understand why she should be told anything about her act at this late day. When reminded that she was working before a colored audience and that she should not overdraw her character and make herself objectionable to the patrons of the house she exclaimed that she knew how colored people acted and she did not need to be given lessons on that subject. It is not necessary to relate that the engagement of this singer at the Lafayette Theatre was short-lived. It is extremely unfortunate that the stage, in its characterization of the colored American, is doing us more harm than good. But the public is not to blame for present-day conditions. The guilty parties are the theatre manager and the booking agent. They have been mainly responsible for the rarity of the colored performer on the big time in recent years, and it is due to their lack of knowledge of the colored man that there are thrust upon the public false types that ridicule and degrade. Theatregoers like colored acts and usually enjoy them immensely. Knowing this, the manager and booking agent have invaded the footlights with white performers under cork and those who prefer to brown up. So to-day we have as many colored acts in vaudeville on the big time as ever, only they are put on by white people who try to imitate colored people. One can readily see to what a great disadvantage the colored performer is placed. He cannot whiten up and imitate a white performer, but the latter can darken up and do a blackface turn. The manager and booking agent are also largely responsible for so many rough black-face acts done by colored performers. A few days ago I asked a young colored woman who is attractive and dainty in appearance, and whose work is refined, why she selected a male partner who corked up, who wore loud, ludicrous clothes and whose comedymaking methods were coarse. In fact, the male partner is the antithesis of the female artist. I was informed by the young woman that the booking agents had advised her to get a partner—a big black fellow who looked funny, and who cut monkey-shines and made the people laugh. This is the same advice, white performers who work under cork receive, and their endeavors to excite one's risibilities nine cases out of ten become so overdrawn that they become offensive—at least to the colored citizen. It requires a white performer of some mentality as well as knowledge of the colored man to give a good imitation without ridiculing the race. It is not to theatres conducted and mainly patronized by white, people, that we must look for the campaign to be started against objectionable Negro stage types. It is to theatres conducted by and mainly patronized by colored people. False ideas and false stage types should never have precedence over truth—over the real thing—and the seed of truth must first be planted and nour- ished in Negro institutions. Then they will eventually spread and take root where the soil at this time is less friendly and less fertile, and where its growth would be greatly injured by the weeds of misrepresentation and ignorance now growing wild. THEATRICAL JOTTINGS. Elmer Bowman is with the Innocent Company, Buffalo, N. Y. Coleman and Somers are going in vaudeville in a singing and piano act. Thos. A. Brooks is with Sliding Tilly Watson Company, now appearing at the Palace, Baltimore, with Gayety Theatre, Washington, to follow. Miss Daisy Martin, formerly of the Smart Set company, has purchased the property, located 17th and Nandain streets, and opened a first class cafe called "The Rajah." Emile Nelson is back from a tour of the West with Joseph Sandley. While Emile thinks highly of Joseph Sandley, whom he describes as a "prinny," he declares that the West is no place for the Negro and that prejudice is growing in leaps and bounds. LAFAYETTE THEATRE Two laughing hits graced the bill at the Lafayette Theatre the first half of the week. Moss & Frye, in their very funny sketch, made of merry jests and song, and Allie Gillam, Jim Burris, Lew Kenner, Millie Williams and Carrie Pernell in a humorous sketch entitled "Jake the Coachman" were the guilty parties. Both acts turned on the found of merriment at each performance. Moss & Frye are always welcome visitors in Harlem, for they have an act that is bound to extricate anyone out of the slough of despondency. From start to finish their turn is-one big laugh. Furthermore, Moss & Frye are comedians who can sing, and their selections are greatly enjoyed. "Jake the Coachman," written by Lew Kenner, has many humorous situations and bright lines, and there is plenty of action. All of the characters are creditably taken off. The sketch is one of the biggest laughing hits seen at the Lafayette. Lew Kenner, who is new in these parts, capably takes care of the leading comedy role; and the other members of the cast do themselves proud. Jones & Nichols also made good in their skits which possesses elements of merit, Maude Jones, who is a big favorite in Harlem, is a student of "stageology," who constantly improves in her work. Besides, she always gives considerable attention to her costumes. Nichols' method of making laughs are original, and life is not classed among the imitators. Other acts on the bill were the Daley Brothers, the Thirce, Bernard Sisters and De Phinna. Owing to a mistake on the part of the management the papers published in their last week's issue that Miller & Lyles would open at the Lafayette Monday. The management intended announcing the engagement of of Moss & Frye. · Moss & Frye and the Gillam-Burris-Kenner Co. have been held over for the second half.

WILL ANTHONY MADDEN, Manager TUSKEGEE AS I SAW IT AND SOME IMPRESSIONS (BY JAMES REESE EUROPE) On my way South I knew that I was going to a large school founded by Booker T. Washington. Several of my friends, who had visited the institution told me of its greatness—of the vast amount of work being done there for the benefit of the race. Therefore I was prepared to see something out of the ordinary, but I was not prepared to see Tuskegee as it is, and furthermore it would be impossible for me to picture in words what a wonderful place it is. Therefore this account of my visit is merely a brief outline of what I saw and did. As I stepped from the train about eleven o'clock I was met by a squad of cadets under the command of Capt. W. Wolfe, a captain of the building, to the office of Emmett J. Scott, thence to Dr. Washington. After an exchange of greetings, we went to the dining hall where all of the students were sitting. You have ever had the feeling of something inside of you swelling up, with the effect of tears coming to your eyes? It was just this feeling that came over the hull, when every boy and girl arose as one and gave three cheers. It was my first insight on Tuskegee Spirit—the spirit of all for one and one for all, with the uniquely worthy of the best drilled army. After dinner a tour of the school was made in which I met the teacher of each class in the academic and industrial departments. Naturally the industrial department found the boys and girls making, with very few exceptions, every commodity used in every-day life. Even now, the only thing I can think of that they are an opportunity they'll have no trouble in making this. There seems to be nothing impossible for these girls or boys, in the millinery division you will find the same styles found in the most up-to-date department. To the dressmaking division and tailor shops, Shoes, engines, harness, bricks—anything you want. All you have to do is to go to the particular division and enter the own trees to saw into boards to be used in the erection of a new building. As to the farm—just imagine a cultivated area into which we can set Harlem, and then go down and bring up Battery Park to the school and town, besides producing enough material to be canned for winter use. However, let me proceed to other things because I could never get through talking of the merits of the interior departments and what they can do. Nucleus of a Great Orchestra. I visited the orchestra rehearsal and much was surprised to find so great an amount of material I had to carry. There is a vast amount of material for a band and orchestra and with some development a wonderful musical organization can be created. After what I've seen during my visit—practically my first visit in the South, no one can see anything—after seeing the band he has done, I have the same conditions for the Negro in the South as I saw them, and as any one can see if they go down there—other than that the band is one of the greatest men that ever lived. But let me go on. As we left the orchidist, prenatal, the burses surrendered to the administration building there reached the administration building there was a squad of about twenty or thirty men, and I saw them for inspection. I say boys and men, because there were boys about thirteen or fourteen, and men almost as lad as I am, because there were men to police the grounds until midnight. Tuskegee Spirit and Discipline. Another example of Tuskeger Spirit: Can you imagine a boy of thirteen or fourteen ordering you to carry out the law? That's the way it is done in Tuskeger Organization, system—and above all enlistment—is to be seen everywhere. Such discipline also. The surprising thing is you never see any one giving orders. Everyone knows what is to be done and does it as soon as possible. "Normal" in regard to this matter and they'll simply smile and answer you as though you have brought up something new. Tuskeger, who has charge of the boys, and there is but one impression you could form of him and that is—he is a soldier. The few books are necessary. Still there is never a forenom o ra scow on his brow. He has a smile for everybody. The same forenom, Major Ramsey's subordinates. Then there is Warren Logan, the treasurer, who seems to be loved almost as much as Washington, the general-in-chief of the department, who, although I didn't see a great deal of him, wins an immense amount of regard from me for the way in which the industrial department are conducted. 'As I said, before, every step I made I expected to see something new, and did, did. I expected nothing to distinguish it from any hospital you might enter in a large city. Places where you work, places where you were in use and every facility for the conduct of the most difficult cases were in readiness. If Dr. J. A. Kenny and his corps of assistants and nurses, I believe the life and health of anyone would be safe: An Impressive Sight. On Sunday morning, before chapel services, the inspection of the cadets takes place and this duty was imposed upon me. As I stool at the foot of the line, it seemed oak, tough and tough, ever as I passed in front of the line, every one of the boys, with few exceptions, seemed perfect. Then came the march to chapel. As long as I live I do not believe that I will ever see a more beautiful girl than I did and then the girls marching down the winding hill to the Sunday services. In no instance—whether student, teacher or visitor—did the flag pass a covered head. My night of nights was Sunday night in the garden, and I sang the Negro folk songs. For years I have been hearing plantation melodies until I almost knew them, but never before have I heard so many that I did not know, and some of the most beautiful songs or knew existed. They are wonderful! One of the memorable events of my visit was a trip with Major Ramsey to the tuscan region, some ten miles far from me to ever forget this. The people of the North know that conditions in the South are bad but they haven't the time to visit. I exist in this barely civilized part of the country. Think of a cabin not more than 20x25, of one room where anywhere from six to twelve people sleep in it. Think of the ignorance which must prevail under such circumstances. And these are the people Tuskegee is endeavoring to update. I see these things with my own eyes I doubt if I would have believed them, but I did see them and it is depressing to think that anyone should oppose Dr. Washington in he is living his life. On my return home, I went as far as Atlanta, with Mrs. Washington, and had a wonderful time there. Fortunately, they tell me, it was not on a Saturday night. However, with Mrs. Washington for a companion, I could not afford to go to Atlanta. It gave me more excellent opportunity: of studying one of Dr. Washington's strongest helping hands... I found in her a man who was not so suffering-type type and thoroughly absorbed in the work of her distinguished husband, a most interesting and convincing man, of all, a cog in the wheel of Tuskegee. And so I am back. It has always been my impression that I was a hard working man—ready at all times to do something especially, but now I realize that I have done nothing. It is, however, an incentive to what I will do in the future. I feel the Tuskegee Spirit in me, and give me the Sussexce Spirit all the time. Lincoln Lose to New York Team.

He was no compromiser was being satanic about the organization of the Divine and 'Eternal' and He the Self-Distant being gives to itself sustaining eternal energy. The character of His work will show that the people in His kingdom live, in love, dwell in the church, in Holy Spirit and have abundant life."
