The New York Age HORRIBLE DEATH OF ALA. CONVICT While Serving Ten Days' Sentence Jim Lee Was Beaten to Death by Guard JURY CALLS IT MURDER Fulcher, the White Guard who Committed the Crime, Has Disappeared from the Convict Camp - Has Not Been Found. LEGAL PEONAGE IN ALABAMA Men Convicted in Court Sold into Slavery on Farms to Pay the Fines-Lee Was Sold to Burton, Who Employed Fulcher as Guard. Special to The New York Age. Montgomery, Ala., May 25.—The Colored Alabaman, a newspaper of this city, in a recent issue carried the following editorial expression with reference to a resulting occurrence in connection with what is really legalized peonage in the State of Alabama. The Colored Alabaman says: On April 10, 1955 Jim Lee, a Negro, was arrested with gaming, stolen in the city of Montgomery and sold into slavery by a white man on the farm of N. H. Harring, a white man, near the city. Burton buys the Negro slaves from our city and conducts them with their labor. In the state, in whom the call guardy with heavy straps and the shot guns to whip and beat and scourge the Negro slaves and to shoot the one who tries or tries to escape. The city of Montgomery cares nothing about these conditions since the state has given them their money from their sale helps to pay big salaries to city officials, and to build big school houses for white children. In the case of Jim Lee, if the State had provided him with a common school education and he healed his wrist while a boy, he could live a useful, industrious life and become a tax-paying citizen. More For Convicts Than State Pays Teachers. But Alabama gets more for each Negro convict whom she sells into slavery than she pays to her Negro convict whom she sells into slavery than pays to her Negro school system as this is compelled to breed crime and perpetuate slavery. Jim Lee was sentenced for only ten days hard labor and began to work out his sentence on April 20. On April 25, he was sentenced to Pukker (a white guard) while suffering from pneumonia. In four days after he was sold into slavery by the city of Montgomery he was sick with pneumonia. It would seem then that Lee was sick when he was sold into slavery by the city of Montgomery care? Lee was only a Negro, and his sale price would help pay the salary of city officials. All of this happened right here in calling distance of the Capitol building. The dying groans of this poor, foraken sick, bleeding Negro could be heard in the Capitol. Lee was buried here in Montgomery County and his grave spot will always be a testimony against a system of slavery that is sanctioned by law, but none the less can restrain to every standard of right and justice. The sentiment for and against Alabama, but these is an all wise tool also still lives and dominates in the affairs of men and nations. Story of the Case. The new item to which the Alabamian referer is copied from the Montgomery Journal, one of the daily newspapers of the city and is a story of revolting cruelty and official carelessness. It is as follows: The Montgomery authorities are searching for B. F. Fulcher, former guard at N. B. Burton's convict prison, who has been charged with the murder of John Lee, the Negro convict of Friday. Fulcher has not been seen since Sunday afternoon. The coroner jails which has been investigating the death of the Negro convict since last Saturday morning, visited Wednesday morning, placing him in the custody of B. F. Fulcher. The jury is set that a warrior be charged Fulcher with the first degree. The act of the jury in part combination of the body of the deceased had been carried by one B. F. Fulcher or guard of Messrs. on days of his death, held or made by Dr. Leslie showed that he deceived were committed for about three days. Burton Not Blamed. I believe that the de- tainment death from the investment initiated by P. E. Difcher, agent or Burton Bros." our responsibility for the with is placed on the general public on the debt to belong to general consensus of opinion that the actions of Fulcher were not known by them to have been as brutal as alleged during the investigation of the coroner's jury. Mr. Burton, who has general charge of the camp, is well known in this section and bears an excellent reputation. Lee died in a field at the convict camp Friday morning, and according to testimony presented to the coroner's jury by other Negro convicts he was beaten by Fulcher with a strap several inches wide. These witnesses stated under oath that Fulcher beat the Negro until he died, and one witness stated that the guard struck Lee several blows to his head. It was stated by the witness that he beatning Lee to death turned his body over and with an oath declared "He is dead." City Orders Probe. Jim Lee was sentenced to fifteen days at hard labor after his conviction in the police court of the charge of gaming. He was sent to camp on Friday and after he had to take only a few hours. The city commissioners have ordered a thorough investigation of the treatment of the city's convicts, but so far no announcement has been made as to when it will be released. It will be expected that a public investigation will start. The members of the coroner's jury which investigated the causes of Lee's death were as follows: T. W. Donaldson, foreman; S. S. Higgins, W. D. Judge, W. W. Blue, J. E. Bruce. The investigation was presided over by Judge A. W. Stokes, coroner. JERSEY CITY CITIZENS DID NOT ENDORSE FILM Special to The New York Age JERSEY CITY, N. J., May 26.—The promoters of the photoplay, "The Nigger," which was shown in this city last month, have been using as advertising material an alleged statement to the effect that the Committee of One Hundred of Hudson County, Dr. George E. Cannon, president, had endorsed the film. This statement was based on a published report from a committee sent by the organization to investigate the character of the play, which committee reported that the play was a sociological study of conditions, but that the title was offensive. Since the use of the organization's name as a sponsor of the play, the members of the committee have issued a formal protest, denying that it has given any endorsement, and declaring its belief that the play is intended to intensify the prejudice of the white people against the colored citizens. Subtlè Plot. to Increase Prejudice. At a meeting of the Committee of One-Hundred held May 17, resolutions of protest against the play and against the use of the committee's name as an endorser of the picture were passed. A publicity committee, consisting of the Rev. W. S. Smith, the Rev. Chas. S. Freeman, Dr. G. W. Hooper and Dr. J. R. Stroud, was appointed to prepare a statement, the concluding part of which is as follows: "After a careful analysis of this play, we find that it is very subtle in its plot to intensify the prejudice of the white people against the colored citizen. And we object to all such plays, designed to increase race prejudice and stir up race hatred and race discrimination. The character of this play will certainly alarm the fact that his enemies have resorted to the photoplay as a means to fan the flame of race prejudice, by depleting him as a hopeless degenerate. And when to this is added the doctrine of segregation with its countless lills, now being fostered in those his lills, the character of this play will status of the colored citizen becomes deplorable. The Committee of One Hundred is unalterably opposed to any movement calculated to deprive the colored man of his rights as a citizen, and the sanctity of his membership in the society destined to desire and strive for peace and harmony between the races, based on that Liberty and Justice precluded by the immortal preamble to our Federal Constitution." JACKSON'S BILL BARS FILMS FROM ILLINOIS Special to The New York Acq. CHICAGO, ILL., May 25—The photoplays, "The Nigger," and "The Birth of a Nation," will be barred from exhibition in Illinois by the terms of Representative Jackson's bill, which passed the house in Springfield, Ill., May 18, by a vote of 119 to 2. Representative Jackson is one of the two colored Republican members of the house from Chicago. Representative Jackson made a speech which brought members to their feet and won a decisive victory over those who were attempting to defeat the bill he had introduced. The representative charged in closing the debate that the moving picture interests were behind the effort to defeat the bill. The bill prohibits the exhibiting of any film that shows a lynching or unlawful hanging and is based on the theory that presentation of such pictures sends to race hatred and to rioting. ADVANCEMENT ASSN. WITHDRAWS COMPLAINT In the Jefferson Market Court on Monday, with Magistrate Herbert sitting, the complaint against Harry E. Aitken and D. W. Grifiths producers of the vicious race film, "The Birth of a Nation," was withdrawn by the complainant, the National Association for the Adveancement of Colored People. The case had been called ten times, each time an adjournment being secured. Some minor changes and additions been made to the photo-plate, but it is declared that the most objectionable fea- GRAND PARADA AND MAY FESTIVAL DANCE FOR THE BENEFIT OF THE MUSIC SCHOOL SETTLEMENT COLORED MECHANICS FORM NEW JOINT UNION TO. BE NATIONAL IN SCOPE Temporary Organization Formed, to be known as the National Association of Colored Mechanics, Building and Allied Trades. A meeting of men engaged in the allied mechanical arts was held last Sunday afternoon at 3:30 o'clock in the rooms of the National League on Urban Conditions, when a number of skilled artisans were addressed by Fred R. Moore of THE AGE. The meeting was called by J. T. Clark, of the Urban League, working in conjunction with Robert W. Fearing, electrician, 85 Marion street, Brooklyn; and a local organization was formed for the purpose of combining the members of the various trades into a body which will promote the advancement of their individual interests. It is hoped through the organization that Negro mechanics will be able to present a statement of ability to employers of skilled labor in such a manner as to secure recognition and employment. An effort in this direction will be made in connection with the erection of the Y. M. and Y. W. C. A. buildings which are to be erected by the general boards of these organizations for the colored branches. Trade school graduates will be requested to co-operate. The local organization is to be perfected and it is intended that its scope shall be developed until it becomes a national body, with branches in all sections of the country. A temporary organization was effected with James P. Williams as chairman and Robert W. Fearing as secretary. It will be known as the National Association of Colored Mechanics, Building and Allied Trades. The following men were present and took part in the temporary organization: R. E. Simons, Chas. A. Johnson, Byron D. Allerton, Henry T. Scott, H. J. Thompkins, Stanley A. Miles, Alfred A. Zink, M. J. Shew, L. A. Latimer, Robert A. Braxton, George S. Dowell, J. H. Agard, J. E. Bell, Lotus P. Cook, John R. Fearing, T. B. Matthias, Arthur Davis, Thomas Lucas, V. W. Tandy, Sinclair Jeter, Edward Alexander, S. Mills, Albert L. Lee, James P. Williams, R. W. Fearing, J. T. Clark and Fred R. Moore. Organize Permanently in June. The association will meet on the second Wednesday in June and perfect a permanent organization. Addresses concerning the object of the meeting and the advisability of organizing were made by J. T. Clark, Alfred A. Zink, Robert W. Fearing and others. Among other things, Mr. Fearing said: We are called together for the purpose of organizing the colored mechanics in the industrial sector to be better in their relationship status and to waken them to the possibilities now open to them; and to instill in them the openness of their organization to accomplish their highest goals in their respective trades and businesses. When we consider the disadvantages in our work, we simply every avenue in the industrial sector us, and an opportunity presents itself to pounce an efficient weapon in our hands to overcome these obstacles or means of organizing for their rights. So it must be with us we command enough competent mechanics to, through organization, make the best possible button of industrial progress. Now is the time to strike out to organize solemly, solidly and effectively, to not only make the way for us but for our priority. A markedly strong fighting spirit stirred up in us as the result of the attitudinal shift in the United States, as the present wholesale industrial activities, as shown by our import and export trade figures, clearly show that the attack on a body, to as strongly intricate ourselves in the vast mechanical field, by dependants as a body and by efficiency workers as a body, has expected millions of foreigners invade our country, we will not only be firmly implanted in the industrial activities that make us nation strong, but will also be deeply affected by the pressures men among the dictators of its industrial operations. All of this can and must be accomplished, but only by active participation of our nation. This fight for the period of my natural life. This thought has been unpermint in my mind for over twelve years. Every contractor and in 89 cases out of every 100 our present contractors were at one time mechanics and efficient men. Their duties than we hope yours will be, for there is a strong organized body behind you. We shall encourage you to go into the construction industry, to ensure wherever we can to aid you in the proper handling of your contracts. So far as we know this is to be the only organization that we are involved in, the unions ensuced, in the building and allied trades, and contractors, into one organization, where our interests are pooled together, to be best conserved. We shall organize the colored mechanics in those branches throughout the United States, establish strong enough, making this the parent organization. We expect to make this parent body, an assured success before accepting membership to the organization from efficient men in any locality until we can organise local meetings. By means of a ureau of inquiry we can keep in touch with our organization, and by means of a great assistance in keeping our organization man at work at the respective trades. We ope to be able to place our trade school in our area and are turned out from our trade school year after year. When a call is made upon the headquarters for a mechanic we wish to supply first-class mechanic only. BISHOP WALTER SAYS RACE MUST SHED BLOOD Special to the New York Age. PHILADELPHIA, PA.

M Mitchell and members of his congregation for alleged violation of the Vonderlehr segregation law by moving into a white church property at Fifth and Leigh streets was heard by Judge Ernest H. Wells, of the Hustings Court, Last Saturday. The plaintiffs were fined in the Police Court some weeks ago. The congregation bought the property some time ago, following an unsuccessful court fight instituted by whites. To avoid further objection on the part of whites, an entrance was built on the Fifth street east of the one on Fifth street closed. The whites claim, however, that while the church rritance is on Fifth street that it really fronts on Leigh street. Following argument last Saturday the court adjourned until this Friday in order to give the jury a chance to visit the property. Another case involving the validity of the segregation law is now before the Court of Appeals for consideration. BUSINESS INTERESTS IN BROOKLYN COMMUNITY Enterprises Conducted By Negroes in Section Where Many of Race Live More than Twelve Mercantile and Professional Establishments Conducted by Members of the Race, and There Is Room for Several More. At the intersection and in the vicinity of Dean street and Rochester avenue more than twelve business enterprises are being successfully conducted by Negroes. It is a growing community now populated by about 10,000 Negroes. There are four enterprises conducted by whites. In the last few years the community has steadily grown, and as transportation facilities are bettered the section promises to grow both in population and number of business enterprises. For more than four years R. R. Thomas, 1818 Dean street, corner of Rochester avenue, has conducted a large grocery store, William, Gatewood is clerk. Mr. Thomas carries, a full line of the best commodities and sells a large quantity of butter, milk and eggs. The goods in the store are well arranged and, though crowded, presents a neat and good appearance. Howard Scott, an undertaker, located on the opposite corner, has, in stock a large assortment of caskets and a commodious chapel, the use of which is tendered free. A Variety of Business Enterprises. Joe Campbell, 111 Rochester avenue, is proprietor of a pool room with four tables. J. H. Washington is proprietor of a variety store offering for sale stationery, ice cream, candy and cigars. Miss Dandridge, who is assistant organist at St. Philip's P. E. Church, Brooklyn, is head clerk. Mrs. Hanna M. Clark, assisted by Miss Alice Perry, conducts a restaurant, Dr. C. G. Patricks, with his office at 1870 Dean street has practiced dentistry more than two years. John McDaniel, 1822 Dean street, a tailor, has the patronage of more than 200 customers. He is assisted by his wife, to whom he has taught the trades. Lie Rochester Grocery Co. 104 Rochester avenue, has been in existence four months. For some reason the store clerk refused to give the name of the proprietor. Two barber shops are conducted, one at 1200 Dean street by J. R. Lytle, who is an agent for The Agr. and another at 110 Rochester avenue conducted by H. H. Ham with three barber chairs attended by H. Reed, Bud Trip and Mr. Ham. D. Lark conducts a garage. J. T. Birch is a real estate dealer and handles a number of large properties. Other Business Opportunities. At 162 Fulton street Geo. E. Harris, dealer in motor cycles, baby carriages and accessories, has been at this stand more than six years. Mr. Harris is sub- agent for the Indian, Hawley Henderson a dealer in motor cycles and bag The image provided is too blurry to accurately recognize any text.

A nickel plating plant for all kinds of gold, silver, nickel and brass plating makes the shop most complete. Mr. Harris has two assistants and will send to any part of Brooklyn or New York for articles to be repaired. It is-thought that other enterprises would thrive in this community, such as a moving picture theatre, employment agency, butcher shop, shoe shop, hat-cleaning and paper stand, and department store. There are several vacant stores which rent for $10 per month and upwards, and two vacant lots are-for sale upon which stores or dwellings could be built. As this community grows more sufficient unto itself it will become even more thickly populated and more able to support additional business enterprises. SANITARIUM HEAD WILL HAVE NO "JIM CROWISM" Special to The New York Age CHICAGO, ILL., May 25—According to a decision of Dr. Theodore B. Sachs, president of the board of trustees of the municipal tuberculosis sanitarium, protests will not bring about the establishment of a color line at the sanitarium, as long as he is head of the institution. His attention had been called to a report a few days ago that four 'white girls' had withdrawn from treatment at the institution because they had been assigned to a fresh air cottage in which there were coloured girls. Backed by Mayor Wm. Hale Thompson, who took such a manly stand relative to "The Birth of a Nation," Dr. Sachs has made it known publicly that there will be no "Jim Crow" cottages for colored patients during his term of office. OKLAHOMA GIRL MAKES GOOD AT KANSAS UNIV. Special to The New York Age. McALESTER, Oklahoma, May 25—Miss Hazel Burnice McDaniel of McAlester, Okla., was graduated with honor from the L'Overture High School of McAlester, Okla., in 1910, as valedictorian of her class. During the second semester of the college year 1910-11, Miss McDaniel specialized in music in the University of Kansas, in which art she is very proficient. In the fall of 1911 she entered the college department of the university, and will be graduated from this department at the end of the present school year. Since she has been in attendance at the university Miss McDaniel has attracted the favorable attention of the faculty to a marked degree, by her diligent, persistent effort in the class room and the accomplishments resulting therefrom. On several occasions, she has received the unstinted compliments of members of the faculty for the excellent character of her work. But recently she was highly complimented by the faculty of the university on her thesis, an honor which is not the fortune of many students to receive. During the present year Miss McDaniel was given a class to teach in English literature. This task was performed with such thorough satisfaction as to elicit both the confidence of her students and the commendation of the faculty. The inmate ability of Miss McDaniel is unquestioned, else she could scarcely have accomplished what she has since entering the University of Kansas. With these natural and acquired gifts, supplemented by uniting energy and keen aspirations, it is not difficult to forecast the future of this young woman. She is the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. E. E. McDaniel, her father being a prominent railroad contractor with offices at McMester and Muskogee, Okla. He is a life member of the National Negro Business League, and Mrs. McDaniel is a member of the National Federation of Women's Clubs. THE LIFE OF MARY C. MAYER L DANCE FOR MUSIC ay Evening, M a Kemp. MUSIC BY NEW A BLAME CORNELL FOR JIMCROWING Informs Pupil's Mother that White Boys Did Not Enter Into Conspiracy With Cornell's Prejudiced Fraternity. BUT ATHLETE THOUGHT SO Could Get No Information from Trammates, and Was Under Impression they Had Entered into Prejudice Conspiracy With Cornell Students. Theodore C. Mitchell, principal of the Jamaica High School, Jamaica, Long Island, N. Y., of which school Harry C. Arrington is a member, has conducted an investigation as to the discrimination forced upon Arrington when he visited Cornell University, Itaulah, N. Y., on May 1, as a member of the track team from the Jamaica High School entered to participate in the Cornell Athletic Association track meet. In The Age of May 13 it was reported that while Arrington's white companions were entertained at the Psi Sigma Kappa, a frat house, he was informed that no arrangements had been made, for him. He was also prevented from taking part in the athletic meet through a failure to receive his track number. It appeared from all the information possible to secure that members of the fraternity had used their influence with Arrington's teammates to shut him out from the track, and this The Age reported. The article in The Age was referred to Principal Mitchell by Mrs. Minnie Arrington, mother of the young colored athlete, and caused an investigation in the matter. As a result of this alleged investigation, Mitchell wrote the following letter to Mrs. Arrington, under date of May 17: My dear Mrs. Arrington: I return herewith the letter enclosed with yours of May 15. The article in the New York Age outrageously misrepresents the facts so far as concerns the two boys who went with your son. They were far from entering into any conspiracy against the creature who was diligent in his efforts to have your son permitted to enter the events in which he was registered. I regard it as most unfortunate that a presumably reputable paper should lend itself to a statement of this kind. Yours very truly. (Signed) THEODORE C. MITCHELL Principal Mitchell does not in his letter tell of the result of his investigation, but Tire Ace is in receipt of information to the effect that the school principal places all the blame on the Cornell athletic authorities. The alleged investigation is reported to have brought out the folly wing as about what happened. Principal Shirks Responsibility The two white boys are declared to have stated to the high school principal that Repp, one of the white boys from Jamaica, was called, aside by one Van Buren, of Cornell, and informed that the colored boy on their team should not be allowed to compete; the boys claim to have protested this action, citing the fact that Jenkins, a Jamaica colored boy, and other colored athletes, had competed at previous meets. Van Buren is alleged to have replied that those were exceptional cases and that there would be so much objection in this case by the colored boy, that the colored boy the starter would eliminate the events in which he was entered. They excused their failure to acquaint Arrington with the condition of affairs by saying, "They didn't know how to tell Harry," "These statements Mitchell claims to have confirmed through his investigation, and their dismisses the whole matter by telling the Arrington family, "It is up to Cornell." THE AGE learns from other sources that the probable objection to the colored athlete, came from the Mercersburg Academy and the Hill high school. The Mercersburg school has, it appears, on three different occasions, attempted to draw the color line against the Harrisburg high school on occasions of baseball, football and track meet encounters. Even though this be true, the Jamaica high school team was the guest of Cornell and any member of it should have been protected from embarrassment and discrimination by the team captain. On the other hand, it is shown, there was something very peculiar in the actions of Arrington's teammates when they failed to let him know the true condition of affairs, thus subjecting him to a double humiliation. Cornell students declare that the white boys from Jamaica did not show the kind of backbone which could indicate that they made much of protest in behalf of their colored inmate. Rurrington Thought Mates Were in Conspiracy. A statement from a person very close to young Arrington bears out the publication in The Age of May 13 that an apparent conspiracy existed between the Cornell frat members and the white boys of the Jamaica team. This friend has stated to a representative of The Age that: Norton, A. H. Turner, J. M. Pollard. The judges awarded the prize to company C. The report of the board of trustees showed that the school despite the hard times had been enabled to hold its own and to make some improvements without adding to its indebtedness. The course of study is now twelve years instead of eleven as formerly. The exhibit of products was in the Long Island building, the new dormitory and the school's library. An elaborate program had been prepared for an outdoor exercise, but cool weather made an indoor program necessary. Prayer was said by Bishop Raleigh, N. C. Baleigh, N.

"Harry was under the impression that the facts, were as stated in your article—that it was due to the acts of his companions that he was prevented from participating inasmuch as he saw little them after their arrival at Jamaica, and was unable to identify any information from them as to the reason for the prevented from participating in the events. This made him think they had been drawn into a prejudice conspiracy by the students whom they met there. When Harry arrived at Ithaca with his companions, whom he had known for sometime, he was by one Faber at Corner from Jamaica, who had even been sent to meet the Jamaica team. The Cornell man had been informed that the team would consist of three boys, and Inquiry was made as to whether there would be objection on account of color. The captain had no answer to this query, but Faber had been instructed, evidently, for he told Harry at the station that arrangement had been made and only would be accommodated if that would be accommodated at one of the hotels at Cornell's expense. a "This offer Harry declined, saying he would get in touch with Frank C. Downing, a student, and make his headquarters with him, which he did. The next day it was rained and had neither he guarded from his team companions or any one else, but he made his way to the track prepared to take part in the meet. He could get no track number from the director of the meet. And nor could he get satisfaction from the team mates, to whom Ashmeld declared the number had been given." It would be interesting to know just what attitude Principal Mitchell would have advised the members of the team to take if he had been present at Ithaca. Attention is called to the action taken by the coach of the football team from the Commercial high school in Brooklyn. When visiting a military school upstate with his team; objection was made to the presence on the team of Eh Williams, the fast left tackle, a young Negro boy. Not only did the Brooklyn coach refuse to play the game, but he and the entire team refused to accept any of the courtesies which were offered, declining to eat lunch or to use the school vehicle for the return trip to the railroad station, preferring rather to walk several miles without food than in the slightest degree to condone or accept a slight upon a member of the team, even though that member was only a "Negro."

"It's a far cry" from sentiment to business. This is the age of specialized selling methods and the Colored merchant must "fall in" or "fall out." The difference between the business which is "mighty fine" and "just so-so" is the difference in merchandising methods. We can help you to put your business into the "mighty fine" class.

ROYSTER PROPRIETOR AND MANAGING DIRECTOR 805-815 TREMONT STREET BOSTON, MASS. Don't forget the Old Rose Room and the Beef Steak Garret 8-4.3mo STRINGBEANS" IN TOWN. THIS is a gala week at the Lafayette Theatre, and to the casual observer there are indications galore that something unusual is going on in the vicinity of Seventh avenue, and 132d street. The occasion extraordinary is that Messrs. Morganstern & Walton are fittingly celebrating their first anniversary as managers' of this far-famed theatre, being ably and enthusiastically assisted by the theatregoers in large numbers and a bill of unusual excellence. This week the Lafayette Theatre presents a decidedly animated appearance, with flags and bunting artistically displayed in the lobby and the interior of the house, and with large and appreciative audiences present at each performance. Opening Monday afternoon to standing room, big houses have been in order ever since, and these is every reason to believe that the Lafayette will be the chief center of interest for amusement seekers the remainder of the week The fact that this is Anniversary Week is a secondary consideration, however, to the public, which is mainly drawn to the Lafayette by the vaudeville bill, which is being generally spoken of as "the best and strongest-bill ever presented at the Lafayette Theatre." This estimate of the quality of entertainment being offered by the management must be a correct one, in view of the large attendance; for Messrs. Morganstern & Walton are not oblivious to the fact that even Anniversary Week could have been a rank failure had they provided amusement of an inferior brand. The hill at the Lafayette the first half of the week was a winner from start to finish. Every act was a big hit and the turns established the record of harvesting the largest crop of applause in the history of the house. The first act to make a bid for popular favor was the Four Newswomes, acrobats (two men and two women), who performed some hair-raising feats in aerobatology. The quartet has one of the best acts of its kind in vaudeville, and went unusually big for an opening turn. Next came Fannie Wise, who enjoys a conspicuous place in the front rank of colored singers. Not only has Miss Wise a voice of exceptional sweetness, whether singing in upper, middle or lower registers, but she also possesses the ability to give an intelligent interpretation of a number, and this happy faculty should sooner or later serve her in good stead. For a good voice minus intelligent rendition does not pile up a very high average. This week in Harlem several discussions have grown out of persons innocently comparing Miss Wise's voice with those of other sweet singers of the race. Comparisons, they say, are odious, but the assertion may be made without fear of contradiction that if Miss Wise entered a singing contest, even if she did not get prize, everybody competing would know that she had taken part. The third act on the bill, programmed as the Six Entertainers, and known on the big time as the Six Banjopeeds, scored the biggest hit made by a musical act in the history of the house. The members of this act do not only play banjos. One young woman is a talented violinist, another is clever at the pang, while another attracts attention as a trap drummer. Then all of them sing well. The Six Entertainers have a cabaret act that is up-to-date in every way. Why such a turn is not put out by colored entertainers is a puzzle. Whittier's Barefooted Boy followed the feature picture. To those familiar with the works of Whittier this act was especially impressive. All appreciated the whisling specialty and luteic humor which stamps this turn as class and original in idea. Next came the headline act May & May, with the funny "Stringbeans" Without a doubt "Stringbeans" (Butler May) is the biggest drawing card before the colored theatrical public to-day. There is something about him that causes the audience to laugh unproariously at almost every little thing he says or does. Some say it is his personality. Anyhow, what it takes to make the people laugh "Stringbeans" has it. He is just as comical as when he appeared at the Lafayette some months ago, and doubtless he has reached the conclusion that a comedian of his ability does not have to use objectionable material in order to make people laugh. The majority of the theatregoers like clean entertainment, and "Stringbeans" has come to realize that he will never do anything in a big way unless he caters to the majority. At this moment a most promising career awaits "Stringbeans"—that is, unless he takes the airship route which has injured many a promising performer who has lost his head and "gone up in the air," only later to come to his senses and realize that he has lost the opportunity of his life to make fame and money. With "Stringheans" is his capable partner, "Sweezie" May, who plays a more important part in the act than many think. Dainty and petite, a clever little actress and a good singer, Miss May does the straight work in a highly acceptable manner. There is not a coiled performer on the stage of the female sex who pays more attention to her wardrobe than Miss May, whose costumes always excite favorable comment. The closing act on the bill the first half of the week was J. Leubrie Hill's Cakewalk Revue, with twelve people—Evan Robinson, five clever, pretty dancing girls, Mae Brown, Irina Baptiste, Louise Townsend, Lizzie Carpenter, Madge. Davis and Hilaria Friend, and the Bostonian Quintet, composed of five young men who can sing. While some of the musical numbers are reminiscent, such as "At the Ball, That's All," and "Manhattan Rag," J. Leubrie Hill has introduced several tuneful melodies, chief of which is "Watermelon Time in Georgia." The feature of the act is the cakewalk, which is productive of rounds of applause. This act, with a few minor changes, should find a ready market on the big time. For with the revival of the cakewalk such an act presented by J. Leubrie Hill ought to stand out in hold relief above similar cakewalk turns for many obvious reasons. May & May, Wilber Sweatman and Jenkins & Moore will be the features of the bull starting next Monday. CLEF CLUB CARNIVAL Deacon Johnson, the recently elected president and directing manager of the Clof Club organization, has every reason to feel assured that his new policies in regard to the conduct of the club are based on sound and sagacious ideas, if the cordial and hearty support given the organization at its annual entertainment Friday night, May 1, at Manhattan Casino, can be accepted as a criterion. The entertainment itself was cast along new lines, and included some novel innovations, musically, histrionic; DEACON JOHNSON cally and electrically. The orchestra was not placed at any time upon the end stage, but a flower-justoond and unencumbered platform in the center of the auditorium floor was used, and here musician, to the number of about sixty, gave such music as has rarely been equaled in this city, where, good dance music is the ordinary offering. The carnival program was interlarded with the dance numbers, and the dancing floor was a variable jam when the live cone-step or seductive waltz enticed the folks, old and young, to trip the light fantastic. Fred M. Bryan conducted, assisted by Lockhart Roberts, in his own compositions, and Win. Cooper, the immutable Bopangles, about whose work there can be the rd no disentaining word. Perisiorally speaking, the bit of the evening was the "Shadow Dance," conducted by the composer, Harry Stout, the ladder, with electrical effects by *Robert W. Fearing*, the electrician, of 85 Marion street, Brooklyn. Features of the concert program were songs by Abbie Mitchell, Inez Clough-Hogan and Alice Gorgas. Miss Gorgas was assisted by the Elkins Glee Club and her number was the most effective and best enjoyed of the evening. Miss Mitchell sang numbers by Coleridge-Taylor and Ronald, with Mglville Charlton at the piano, but it was not possible for her to do justice either to the music or to her own ability under the conditions. The constant hum of conversation carried on by the audience was alone sufficient to "kill" her work. The effort necessary in securing a hearing evidently affected her technique, because she was most decidedly deficient in that particular. She showed comprehension and understanding and must be commended for a brave effort to overcome the existing handicaps. Elkins' Glee Club sang splendidly, but only a small part of the audience heard and appreciated its work. Its best work was in "The Roll Call," and in the chorus to Miss Gorgas' number, Herbert's "Italian Street Song." Miss Gorgas was in splendid voice and sang with sympathy and effectiveness. She succeeded more largely than any of the other artists in securing attention from the dance-mad audience, and the result was an ovation. This girl has improved wonderfully over her work of a year ago, and I take it for granted that some of the credit therefor must be due to encouragement and, instruction from Will Elkins, with whom she is working at the Central Casino, owned and conducted by Mr. Walldron of the Manhattan Casino.

The Smart Set, with Salem Tutt Whitney and J. Homer Tutt, is playing at the New Standard Theatre, Philadelphia. The Williams' Colored Singers finished their concert tour at Detroit on May 13. After six weeks' vacation in Chicago, the company will sing at the chauktaquas of Colorado, Nebraska, Iowa and Illinois, the season running from June 29 to the last week in August. Maude Jones, well known in theatrical circles, has opened a first-class millinery establishment in New York. Mabel Whitman writes that she is convalescent after undergoing an operation at the South Highlands Infirmary, Birmingham, Ala. **Selma Claims Stato Championship.** Selma, Ala—Selma, University baseball team had a most successful season winning 15, losing 3 and tying 1 of the home games; to out of 11 were won, 3 being shut out, 1 hit out of the road, the team lost 5 and lost 1 of the home loss was by one run. Selma's pitchers, Coley, Dowdell and Walker pitched splendid ball; and during the home games, no opposing teams not over seven hits, or six runs off their delivery; the general average being about 5 hits and not quite 3 rips per game. "This record was made against the leading schools of the state," Selma wrote. "This record is better than any other school in the state by several points and gives the state championship to Selma University. A QUARTET OF SINGERS. (BY LUCIEN H. WHITE.) During the past twelve months two changes have been made in the solo voices of St. Mark's M. E. Church choir, Eugene, Aldama Jackson, director and organist, Charles H. Waters, of Brooklyn, has been engaged as the tenor soloist and Mme. Bessie Kinney Payne, contralto, has succeeded Mme. Daisy Tapley, who resigned to take charge of the choir at Concord Baptist Church, Brooklyn. Comparisons, sometimes, are odious, but in this case it will not mean an invidious criticism of the efforts of former soloists when I say that the changes have improved the quality of work done by this choir. This was proven on Monday night, May 24, when the third annual choral recital of St. Mark's choir was given at that church before an audience that tested the capacity of the auditorium. While on the whole the choir is showing improvement, there were a number of lapses and it is regrettable that, these faults were most pronounced in the ensemble work in the choruses. Lack of precision in attack, thinness in tone, and evident unfamiliarity with the score in some of the numbers, are not to be excused, because faithful work in rehearsals and attention to the business in hand would most certainly bring a higher standard of performance. In singing the opening and closing numbers, Smart's "Queen of the Night," and Strauss' old familiar Blue Danube waltz, programed under the title, "Springtime," the choir did not measure up to its reputation. However, if bad work in one instance can be redeemed by good work in another, the choir atoned by its a capella singing of "Hail! Gladdening Night," and by its support of the sextet in "What from Vengeance," from Donizetti's Lucia di Lammermoor. In this these numbers the choir sang delightfully. The shading was good, as was the conception of the themes and development of the nuances. It is a splendid body of singers which Mr. Jackson has to work with and it was plainly to be seen that there is hardly anything in the line of musical interpretation of which it is not capable. All the more reason, therefore, that when the climax of a singer's work is reached it should be an exposition giving room for very little justified criticism. To my mind the trouble is that a number of the singers do not approach their work in a serious spirit, or with a proper conception of the dignity, attaching to the individual's effort. As much importance attaches to the least talented individual in a chorus to the leading soloist, and a failure to perfect one self because of a belief that "my part is not important or noticeable," is a shaking of duty that leads to a weakening of the whole structure of endeavor. Nor does the prominence of the soloists and leading singers excuse them from faithful endeavor, because it is from their ability as individuals that strength is given to the body as a whole. AR REQUEST Night's Festival BY - CLUB ORCHESTRA NO, 155th St. & 8th Ave. June 17, 1915 President & Directing Manager SION, 50 CENTS LOGES, Including Admission 75c St Club Rooms, 134 W. 53rd Street Charles H. Waters, tenor, added considerably to his reputation as a pleasing singer. He is a bright tenor, with good range a pleasing method and excellent control. His phrasing, while not all that is skilful, has improved, and there is increased flexibility and resonance. Mr. Waters evidently believes in preparedness, for in two numbers he was called on to take parts which had been assigned to other tenors, and performed with credit the unexpected tasks. Mrs. Terry Kinney Poeje appeared for the first time in an annual recital, and measured up to the requirements. She has personality, stage presence and temperament. Add to this a *true* contralto voice, with rich, full tone, of great range, and a technique above the ordinary. Her work in the quartet from *Rigolotto* was of a high order, and when followed as her solo the bright and sharping little song, "Summer," by Chaminde, the audience would not let her alone until she had given also Nevin's setting of Dunbar's poem, "Mighty lak a Rose," followed by "Old Folks at Hdne." As usual, the soloist of Miss Minnie Brown, soprano soloist, calls for commendation. She requested her success of 1914 in singing Leonore's song in the tower scene from *I Trovaratore*, supported by Chas Waters, tenor, and the Aldama Crescenzo Gloe Club of male voices. At short notice, she took the soprano obligate in Spieker's "Hymn to the Madonna" in place of Mme. Terrell incapacitated by illness. In this, and in the quartet from *Rigolotto* her voice afforded pleasure. If *Miss Brown could rid her, voice of a slight nasality would, he little left to be desired, for she has method, technique, comprehension and range. Her technique is especially agreeable. Another soprano who did some nice work was Mrs. Hattie Reavis. She interpreted Schubert's dainty ballade, "What is Sylvia?" acceptably, and she sang the soprano part in the Lucia sexet with effective grace. Miss Ebel Clarke, a talented little baby recently came to this country from the West Indies, was programmed as a soprano, and so "Golden Song" Freeley. An occupation more brought her forward again with Marshall's "Hear You Calling Me." She has a rich voice songless and deep, and if it had not been printed on the program that it was soprano, I should have thought I was listening to a most excellent contratto. John E. Berry, baritone, sang "Visions Fair," by Massanet, responding to an encore with the baritone's favorite Tosti's "Goodhye." Mr. Berry sang with a throaty effect that interfered not only with his enunciation but prevented a sharp and clear tone production. This was unfortunate, for the singer has a voice of natural quality and would probably be a pleasing vocalist if he would let his voice come out. The timbre of his voice should not be exaggerated, for that produces a forced tremolo, carrying it as far in the wrong direction, as an unforced emission; of tone would go toward bringing Mr. Berry into the class of capable and agreeable baritones. George W. Taylor is the basso of the quartet of soloists, and he sang with force and fire Bruno Huhn's defiance of the fates. "Invictus." In response to an insistent demand from the audience he gave an enjoyable rendering of a sweet and short little song, "Auf Weidersehn." "Mrs. Hattie Reavis, soprano; Mrs. Ida Small, contralto; Chas. Waters and Wm. Jarvis, tenors; Edward Holder and George W. Taylor, bassos, sang the Luin, sextet, and Miss Brown, Mme. Payae, Mr. Waters and Mr. Taylor sang the quartet from Rigololet. These two numbers, according to the program, were sung in Italian. I do not know the Italian language, but I have heard quite a deal of singing in that language, by native Italians as well as by singers of other nationalities who "had given patient and faithful study to accent and pronunciation. The Italian language is preeminently adapted to musical expression, but I do not believe it should be attempted by singers who have neither fundamental knowledge of the language, or the benefit of expert coaching and training, or as sufficient interest and energy to take advantage of instruction when it is given. Mr Jackson has had some special study. I understand, in the use of the language for singing, but he has a difficult task in hand when he tries to take a body of singers who lack special aptitude or inclination and induce them into the nysteries of a foreign language, even though the music itself be the chief means of expression. The ushers were furnished from the Roesch Club, an organization of young girls connected with the church. Some of the girls' especially the couple on the west corner aisle, evidently thought they were there to be heard as well as seen, judging from their contributions to the program in the way of audible comments, giggling, etc., while musical numbers were being rendered. Their performance was not appreciated, however, to the extent that an encore was requested. At the conclusion of the program, refreshments were served to a goodly number of folks who went down to the lecture room. Mr. Jackson announced that tenors and basses are needed in the chair and made a request that singers apply to him for admission to the organization. The body at present, as shown on the program, consists of nineteen sopranos, sixteen altos, fifteen teners and fourteen basses, not including the four-soloists. For selling the largest number of tickets, Mrs. Mamie Thomas was given $10 in gold; Mrs. Albert Meyers, $5 in gold, and Mrs. Alberta Dillard, $250 a gold. MINNOWINGS OF SPORT CAUGHT BY HOOKS While up to see the Lincoln Stars practice last Thursday morning, I found that their captain, Lloyd, has an awful jump ball Lloyd does the jumping. Before the dives' practice was over an argument cross between Dick Redling and Pierce as to their running agility. The argument terminated in four in a being sent to the pole—the们 were Santop, Harvey, Redling and Pierce. The men got off to an even start but Santop with his long stride soon forged ahead so that midway the distance he was leading by two yards. This lead was, gradually cut down by Harvey and Redling who raced across the tape hass a foot behind the giant Santop. Pierce was a severe disappointment to his admirers, finishing last by several feet though he went' to the pole a hot favorite. Interest is now at fever heat for a special race between Santop and Poles of the Stars, and Jessie Bragg of the Lincoln Giants, in order to determine the fastest man in baseball. The Salem-boys are trying to induce these men to come together at their meet which has been definitely arranged for June 26. I notice that we have a new man in uniform (brass buttons, blue coat, etc.), in Harlem whose name is Holmes. Judging from the formidable appearance presented by Our three men, Holmes, Battles and Rhodes, I am inclined to believe that with a few more like them stationed hereabouts we will be getting the kind of government right here in Harlem that Abe Lincoln spoke of on the Gettsysburg battlefield. Last Sunday a number of our local athletes journeyed to Celtic Park to take part in the games of the New York Post Office Clerks. All failed to "come through" in the open events, though chassy running was done by the colored performers. In the events closed to the post-office clerks the colored boys (aired a little better); Sydney Jackson, formerly of the Irish American A. C., was the successful colored entrant in the three-quarter mile event; he won handsily and then came back and ran a strong pace on his relay team from the foreign mall station.

They seemingly fall to realize that the black man's hope, pugilistically, will be realized when Willard steps into a ring with any colored heavy-weight—except Bob Lee. It is alleged that Howard University, who has to be guaranteed $250 before she'll allow her basketball team to come to New York to play a game, has within the last week refused to guarantee expenses to three men from this burg to their meet on Decoration Day, although previously urging them to come down. It seems that these three men, P. J. White, James Ravenell, and "Bunk" Jones, all champions, received letters as far back as three weeks ago asking them to make the yard and appear in a special 100-yard dash. Whereupon they immediately wrote back the amount of expense needed and energetically began getting themselves in tip-top form. The report goes on to say that the boys were just getting on edge when White and Jones received letters telling them that it would be impossible to bring them down. Ravenell has received a letter asking him to come but he has informed me that he will not go unless his expenses are forwarded to him in advance, as is customary. As Jones is the present Metropolitan junior champion and White was picked by the late Jas. Sullivan as a surety for the all eastern team that goes to the coast this summer, it seems that Howard has let a good chance slip for these men to match their speed against the popular St. Christopher A. C. track captain who was last year's Metropolitan junior champ. It at least seems shabby of Howard to promise expenses and then fall down, at the last moment. Many admirers of these boys were going down for no other purpose than to see "the special." Arthur Gorham is going down in spite of expenses to give them an idea of Salem-Crescent speed. A relay team, from Smart Set is also making the trip. Full report in next week's Age. Tucker, St. Christopher's phenomenal New Haven sprinter, who has moved into this vicinity for the better competition offered, had a bad fall in Gue mad dash for the tape in the 130-yard dash at Celtic Park last Sunday. His injury was not serious. Frank Jenkins, who will represent St. C. when his year of unattached running is over, is going like a streak in practice these days. He will make some of the local boys travel fast to beat him this summer. Track captain LeBent of the Salem boys finds it advisable to split up his large track team for the various games Monday. The largest squad he is taking-with him to Stamford, Conn. Another group is being sent under Andy Pendleton to Schuetzen Park, Union Hill, Jersey City. Howard University Athletic Games, Washington, D.C.—The Memorial Day athletic meet to be held at Howard University on Monday, May 21 will bring together some of the speediest runners of the metropolitan area. Among the entries received are those of James H. Ravenell of St. Christopher A. C., New York; Charles A. Thompson, W. L. A., Murray, Walter Howe, William Seabourn, and Walter E. H. Robinson of the Smart Set A. C. Carter, E. W. Dorsely, James H. Carter, S. M. Howe, R. E. Johnson, Simon P. Scott, R. S. Steward of Morgan College, Baltimore. The local grammar and high schools and Howard will be fully represented. The meet is sanctioned by the A. A. U. and scratch events open to all 440-yard run, 880-yard run, putting 160-pound shot, one mile run, 120-yard low hurdle, one mile relay, two-tile run, running high jump and pole vault. THE WM P.P. MOORE The Flying Chaplain Should you ask a Salem-Crseent, "Who is the Chaplain of your club?" I feel pretty sure that nine out of ten would shrug their shoulders and beg to be excused. But ask any one of those nine if he knows "P. P." and before you can say "More" he has said "yes," and his willing to tell you the whole story of Willie's life. Here is a young man who rarely misses a meeting of his club, attends well to duty when present, yet is little known as an officer. And this is not brought about by the insignificance of the office either for Bible discussion plays an important part in every Salem meeting, but it is just "P. P." The stories as to how he got these club-given initials are many but the one generally adhered to is this: Some time during Moore's life he is said to have taken a civil service examination and to have passed up in the nineties. When sent for he had a forethought that his size and weight would be a handicap to him, so he is said to have stuffed his clothes with rags and to have dropped, a weight on which was marked 100-lbs, into his pocket, as he passed the examiner's scales. When asked how heavy he was, he is said to have replied (remembering the weight in his pocket). "One hundred and ninety-nine, sir." When he stepped upon the scales and saw them balancing around the 105-lb. mark, it is said that it extra-little occurred to him that this extra-100 pounds was only a one-pound, balance for a hundred. Straightway he stepped off, the scales and made his way out, not waiting for a final rating. Stripped of the rags and weight he just tips the beam at about ninety-nine pounds. The Salem-Crescens, wishing to remember this incident, and at the same time not brand Moore with the famous convict number, simply turned the two nines around and made P. P. In next week's Age, the tale of St. Christopher's little track captain, James Ravenell.

A Danish Mass Meeting. On Sunday evening last the Negro people of the Danish Islands resident in New York met at St. Mark's Hall in West 133th street, and organized the Danish West Indian Committee. It seems, that discontent has increased in the islands and has at length found a voice in the person of D. Hamilton Jackson of St. Croix, who passed through New York a few weeks ago on his way to Copenhagen to lay before the King and the Danish Ministry the real facts back of native discontent. Mr. Jackson's work both in the islands and in Denmark, has made such unreasonable opposition from the Colonial Governor Larsen, that the Radical-Socialist element in the Folkething or Parliament, insisted that he should return to Denmark and explain his conduct. The meeting of Sunday evening was for the purpose of alding and extending the work of Mr. Jackson by the creation of an organization big enough to be able to do things at short notice. Hubert H. Harrison, as chairman of the meeting, outlined the program of the new organization and the support of the assembly was well expressed by James A. Glasgow, Karl Hendricks, Victor Murphy and Mrs. Sylvanie Smith. The first work of the organization is the creation of a fund to be known as the Jackson Fund by means of which the work of Mr. Jackson in Copenhagen can be made easier. The permanent purpose, of the organization is to keep in effective touch with affaires in the Danish islands and to influence them to the benefit of the islanders. To this end a committee of correspondence is to be elected at the meeting to work on the Jackson Fund on Sunday evening, May 30, 8 o'clock. Lowing are the nominations before the body. Theodore Vanderpool, Henry Glendenen, Arthur Francis, Robert Maclean, Ashley Totten, Karl Hendricks and Hubert H. Harrison. It is also proposed to purchase a newspaper, plant and to publish a newspaper in the islands which shall express the viewpoint and the interests of the Neuro population there. The formation of a Mutual Improvement Society to offer educational assistance and advice to the ambitious clubs, and study clubs and the organization of Danish Classes will also come before the maa's meeting of Sunday.
