The New York Age MERIT, NOT RACE, FRANCE DEMANDS New York Dentist Spends Three Months in French War Hospital Service DR. ROBERTS RETURNS Tells Of Experiences During Period in Which He Served as a Volunteer Dental Surgeon in Paris Military Academy. HOSPITAL STRUCK BY SHELL German Zeppelin Shelled Building, Partly Wrecking it—Passengers on French Liner Drilled in Safety Tactics—Dr. Roberts Shawed Speed in Using Life Preserver. An absolute unconsciousness of racial or color difference is a predominant characteristic of the Frenchman on French soil, according to Dr. Charles H Roberts, the dentist of 242 West 53d street, who returned to the United States on September 6 from Paris, DR. CHARLES H. ROBERTS France, where he had spent several months in the hospital service of the Frenen government, treating wounded soldiers. "During my stay in France," said Dr. Roberts, in talking with a representative of THE AGE, "there was not the slightest evidence in any way, shape or form, that my color was noticed or considered. I had letters of introduction and commendation from ex-President Wm. H. Tait, Dr Booker T. Washington and Major R. R. Moton, and through these letters I received many courtesies from lugene Brieux, the famous author, writer of the play, "Damaged Goods," Frederick Masson, the Shakespearean authority, Dr. Vincent, discoverer of antitypophilid vaccine, which he supplies to the Allied Armies from his laboratories at Val de Grace, the largest military hospital in France, and many other people of prominence. "It was not that, being a colored man, I was received with courtesy and consideration, but there appeared to be an entire absence of even the thought that I might be in any way different from anybody else. The idea of the Frenchman is that a man should be considered purely in accordance with his attainment and qualification, and any man's position in the social scale is measured" by his merit and not by complexion or racial affinities. I was connected with Hospital Auxhare No. 265, located at 27, Place Saint Georges, being the only American in that institution. I was on duty from 2 to 4 o'clock p. m., daily, except on Sundays and Thursday, my duties consisting mainly of inspection service, with many opportunities for operative work." Hospital Wrecked by Zeppelin Bomb. It was brought out by Dr. Roberts, in the most casual way, that the hospital building was struck by a shell from a Zeppelin air ship, the German bomb wrecking the roof and a considerable part of the building. Fortunately, no casualties resulted. Dr. Roberts was not at the building at the time, and the incident was considered in so matter-of-fact a way by the hospital's folks that no mention of it was made to him, and he only knew of it from a few lines printed in the papers next morning. An interesting experience was a trip through the laboratories of Dr. Vincent at Val de Graze, in company was the distinguished avant, who personally conducted him, explaining the processes of his antivibuloid vaccine discovery. Hospital Auxiliare No. 265, whose Dr. Roberts was located, is one of the chain of hospitals established by the French government since the war started, and is located in what was formerly the palatial Hotel Thiers. Many of the largest and most commodious hotels of the French capital have been turned into hospitals HAITI'S OCCUPATION BY AMERICAN TROOPS The following letter from a talented woman living in Port-au-Prince, Haiti, engaged in educational work, is a thrilling and gripping presentation of facts concerning conditions in that ill-fated isle under the present rule of United States troops. The letter is as follows, and speaks for itself: To the Women of the Negro Race Throughout the United States of American: Courteous Gresting. Dear Sisters: On the 27th and 28th of July last another civil revolution culminated in the frightful massacre of the prisoners at the Capital, and the summary execution of the dethroned president, General Vilbrun Guillaume Sam, by whose orders it is said the wholesale slaughter had been accomplished. On the following day, the 29th, an American military expedition landed troops here by night. They did not land openly; but mysteriously, at Bizoton, a little country station four miles from Port-au-Prince. The different military posts, most of them unguarded at that moment of anarchy, were subdued, invaded and disarmed, and subsequently national Fort, the Casernes-Desnalines, the National Palace, every soldier and private citizen. Every gun and the last cartridge were placed on board. The chiefs of the expedition said it was to prevent further bloodshed and to insure order in view of the coming presidential election. The population was disposed to accept the thing in a friendly spirit. But soon after the chiefs arrived they to foot at will, for the mere sport of killing it seemed, the most inoffensive persons. In one instance a barefoot vagrant was shot down dead for continuing to run when he was called. In another a stone deaf gentleman on his way to early mass was shot and wounded by the American patrol. His crime consisted also in responding to a call that the physician unable to hear, much less comprehend. Still pursuing their mission of insuring order they stopped a wedding party searched the men for arms, and then did the same to the ladies and young girls composing the escort. They have forced the homes of private families under excuse of looking for hidden treasure, and have attempted at the honor of the wives and daughters of some of the best families here. The new president has been elected and the executive body reconstituted but the Americans still occupy the National Fort, the Caserines, and the palace gates are guarded by American soldiers. On Monday, August 23, the American Charge of Affairs presented officially a project to the Haytian government demanding that it be ratified and subscribed to within forty-eight hours. The executive refused to comply with the ultimatum and the American Government disallowed the project in time. The American forces have taken possession of the custom houses at Saint-Marc and Port-au-Prince. Quite recently a reserve fund of two million dollars was clandestinely taken from the national bank by agents of the American government, placed on board a waiting gunship and convoyed the Haytan Government has not been able up to this moment to obtain any explanation of the arbitrary proceeding. If American intervention is here to save us from despotism, military and economic; why substitute foreign despotism to the domestic article? Is it for debt that our reserve fund has thus been confiscated? Is it the payment of her innumerable revolutions, has promptly met and fulfilled all her obligations, so, practically, hast owes nothing. We do not pretend to deny that for more than a century the spectacle of our unending civil wars has constituted an "international misuse and scandal." We have been variously scorned, ridiculed and condemned; but he has justly so? All the nations that are self-made, that is that have evolved, unaided, from crude barbarism to progressive civilization (Continued on page 5.) by the government for the care and treatment of wounded soldiers. Notwithstanding the expense of the trip and the dangers to which he was subjected, Dr. Roberts feels that the value of the experience he has gained outweighs all other considerations. Safety Drill for Passengers. Dr. Roberts sailed from New York on July 3, taking passage on the French liner Chicago, which reached Bordeaux on July 15. On the trip every precaution was taken to avoid the German submarines, and the passengers were drilled in that in case of danger there would be no confusion in leaving the vessel. Each passenger was assigned to a particular lifeboat. All fireboats were equipped with food, wine and water, emergency masts were put in, the boats were swung outward on their davits, rope ladders were hung over the side of the vessel, and when the mine and submarine zone was reached, all lights were estinguished. The passengers were decidedly interested in the preparations, but all were optimistic and joyful, and some of them seemed of a spirit that would have welcomed a visit from the Germans. Dr. Roberts did not say whether he was one of these or not, but he did say that he could put on his life preserver quicker than any other passenger on the boat. The sentiment of the French people as regards America's attitude is clear and outspoken, said, Dr. Roberts. There is a decided opinion that this country is not measuring up to the obligations which the friendship shown by France in the past ought to entail. The help given this country in its various periods of combat by France and Frenchmen would seem to require a greater degree of support and assistance than is being given by the United States to France. Roosevelt is idolized by the Frenchmen, his many utterances on the subject of the war being reproduced in all the French papers, and his name acclaimed wherever it is heard. Dr. Roberts left France, by way of Bordeaux, on August 28, sailing on the French liner Rochambeau, reaching New York September 6. ```markdown ``` Oswald Chapin Harris 2 years, 10 months Chicago, Illinois THE WORLD'S FIRST WOMEN'S FIREFIGHTER CAL TO THE NEW YORK AGE. LYNCHBURG, VA. Sept. 14.—While her husband, the Rev R. C. Woods was in Chicago attending the National Baptist Convention, Mrs Dewa Woods shot herself through the heart, after which she walked out of the room to the near of the staircase before she died. Mrs. Woods, whose husband is president of the Virginia Theological Seminary and College, had been suffering from pepagra. The doctors, however, had noted an improvement, and when her husband left for Chicago several female relatives stayed with her, assisting in the care of the five children. She was in her room at the residence on Campbell avenue and asked to be left alone for awhile on Saturday afternoon about 4 o'clock. When the folks went out she shot herself with a pistol which she had hidden, evidently for that purpose. She was 33 years of age, and a native of Southampton county. No quest was deemed necessary by Corenier J. W. Davis. CLEE CLUB MEMBER SHOT SELF IN LONDON Cable advises received in this city Sunday by Deacon Johnson, president and manager of the Chel Club, West 53d street, brought the information that George Walters, a member of that club, playing in London, England, had accid- ently shot and killed himself while handling a revolver. The acce- tion happened the day after September 11. Walters dying from the effects of the wound about 11 o'clock the same night. Walters was a member of the party of Chef Club musicians, headed by Dan Kildare, which went to London on April 10 under engagement at one of the music halls in that city. In the party were Walter Kildare Joe Morris and Seth Jones. The party took rooms together and formed a happy and congenial group in the English city. It is supposed that the accident occurred in their rooms. Fraternal and other organizations in this country with which Walters was connected have been notified and it is probable that his body will be brought back to the United States for interment.

ILLINOIS METHODISTS SPRINGFIELD, I. I. Sept. 14.—When a resolution was introduced into the Rhinos conference of the Methodist Episcopal Church, on Monday petitioning the general conference to elect a Negro bishop, the conference refused to pass it, although a strong fight in its favor was made by the Rev. J. A. Kumler, of Hamilton, Ohio. Dr. Kumler declared that there were Negroes in the M. I. Church who would be at honor, to Methodist episcopacy and declared that "when we push this people out of the church, Christ will feel himself a stranger to it."

A flagrant case of race persecution was that of Luke Prowd, son of the Rev. H. D. Prowd, pastor of Mound Street Church, who was forcibly ejected from a moving picture theatre on upper central avenue, after he had purchased his ticket and secured a seat. Young Prowd was first ordered out by an usher, then the proprietor informed him that colored people were not allowed in that theatre. A policeman was called, and when Prowd persisted in retaining the seat, he was forcefully removed. Dr Prowd took the case up with Mayor Spiegel and Chief of Police Coplan, and the action of the policeman was investigated. He plead ignorance of his limitations as an officer, and was allowed to apologize to young Prowd, and to publish his apology in the daily papers. This he did Dr Prowd and his son will push the case against the proprietor of the theatre. NEWARK DENTIST IS IN STATE DENTAL SOCIETY Special to The New York Age.

Address Broadway Auto Sales Company Inc 213 West 53d street New York City --- WHITE COUPLE SET FREE. COLORED WOMAN JAILED Special to THE NEW YORK ACE. ELEZRINCITY, N. C., Sept. 14—A sample of "southern justice" was shown in this town last week when, Pauline Skinner, a colored woman was sentenced to two months in jail because a white man and a white woman were found in her house when the police called on Tuesday evening, September 7. The white couple were young people of leading families, well known locally, and they were not prosecuted. The police protected them further by refusing to tell their names. But the colored woman was charged with running an immoral house and given the jail sentence ISAAC FISHER WRITES MOVING PICTURE PLAY Special to The New York Ac BIRMINGHAM, ALA., Sept. 14.—The Southern Motion Picture Co., a white organization, presented last night a motion picture film written by Isaac Fisher of Tuskegee Institute, entitled "When Three Love Wins."

"THE NEGRO AND THE NEW SOUTH" A White Man of the NewSouth Makes Notable Address to Negro Business Men Permanency of the Negro in this Country Is Recognized by the Southern Whites No Supporters of Deportation Idea. THE NEGRO LOVES THE SOUTH Rev. J. R. White, Atlanta Pastor, Says the Southern White Man Is Glad to Have the Negro and Gratefully Recognizes that the Negro has Sustained His Life—Negro is Basis of Progress. One of the notable addresses delivered at the fifteenth annual meeting of the National Negro Business League, held in the city of Boston, Mass., was that delivered by the Rev. John R. White, pastor of the Second Baptist Church, Atlanta, Ga., one of the most influential white ministers of the South. The address was delivered on the evening of Wednesday, August 18, at the Symphony Hall, Huntingdon and Massachusetts avenues, on the occasion of the opening of the league sessions. Dr. White's subject was "The Negro and the New South," and in beginning he emphasized his greeting of the large assemblage of Negro men and women, which he addressed as "Brethren and Sisters." Declaring that it is time some body should come out of the South and discuss the better side of Southern life and Southern conditions, he said the best people of the South, both white and black, are getting more and more in comfort of Southern civilization. He concluded the idea that the white people were in favor of the deportation of the Negro from the South and said that the Southern whites have settled down to an understanding of the permanency of the ten million colored people and are looking upon them "not as a liability, but as an asset." "The Negro and the New South." He declared that foreign immigration would not be acceptable to the South and that labor unions and other organizations had already passed anti-foreign-labor resolutions. Dr. White's address was as follows: Mr. Chairman, Brethren and Sisters! In addressing you thus, you will see that I am not like a certain Governor of Georgia, who, during the campaign that preceded his election, had made a promise to the people that if he should be elected he would visit and look after person and would be involved in the seriously conducted. They elected him and he proceeded to carry out his promise by visiting the institutions of the State. The first place he visited was the penitentiary at Milledgeville. The inmates of the penitentiary were duly assembled to hear the Governor's address. He was very good public speaker and started a very formal and lamb-like, for when he was introduced to the prisoners, he began by saying: "MY FELLOW CITIZENS." (Laughter.) He immediately saw that he had not struck the right chord because the men to whom he spoke had practically forfeited their citizenship and had been convicted of a felony and said: "My fellow citizens deserve attemt to correct himself he said: "MY FELLOW CONVICTS." (Prolonged laughter.) That did not impress either himself or his hearers as being altogether appropriate, and finally he got himself together and said: "FELL BOYS, DON'T KNOW EXACTLY WHO YOU ARE YOU BUT I'M MIGHTY GLAD TO SEE SO MANY OF YOU HERE." (Tumultuous applause and laughter.) You see I am not like that Governor, for I know how to address you. I can truly say I am glad to see so many of you here and I feel perfectly, at home in this great audience of colored people, because I am austomed to addressing large audiences of colored people in the South. Dan Crawford's Book on Africa. I read a book a few months ago which greatly impressed me. It was written by Dan Crawford, who is called the "Second Livingstone". Dan Crawford spent twenty-three years in the country, in which my opinion is even greater than his splendid book on Masonry. That title of the book to which I refer was this "Thinking Black". The confidence of that book was that he ought to be living out and discuss the better side of African life. Although he had seen, of the uncivilized practices he had witnessed of the subarctic and rockward things of the jungle, with equal frankness he came out of Africa to tell the world of the good things he had seen on the Dark Continent of the high ideals that he exiled there from the unpleasant unpleasant habit, of the noble associations and beautiful impulses which he found among them. And it has occurred to me that one thing before everything is necessary at this time, especially in the northern and eastern sections of our country, is to be sure to out of the South and say something about "Thinking: White"—in which he would not fall only of the bad things that are to be found in the Southland, or the backwardness, its ignorance, its laziness and un-Christianlike tenderness and so oblivious with equal frankness the better side of southern life and southern conditions, for the best people of the South, both white and black, are getting more and more today in control of our southern civilization. (Applause.) The South Is In Good Humor. And I am here tonight to speak to you as I frequently speak to my own people, and to say that there never was a time in the history of the South when the condition of your race was so good, or the relation between Negro and white people was as happy as it is tonight. (Hearty applause.) There never was a time when the outlook was so favorable to the ten millions of Negroes in the South as it is tonight. The time never was when there were so many white people there "thinking white" about the groves in the South. The truth of this is we are in a good mood down South—we are glad the Woodrow Wilson is President! It has been a long time between drinks. (Laughter and applause.) I knew a Negro down in our section who went up to a white man and said: "Boss, I'm so glad that Mister Woodrow. Wilson is elected President." The white man asked: "Why are you gled of that, Mose?" And, immediately, Mose replied: "Cause you is so glad, and cause all you white folks are glad, that it's data (Prolific minister). Yes, we are rejoicing that Woldrow Wilson is President because his lofty ideals and many alliance to the principles of right and justice have brought to us a new national consciousness. His administration has brought to us a sense of national responsibility. It has impressed us that we are now living in the open—that the eye of the world is unon us, and through our President, through the members of his cabinet, through the leader, and through the United States Senate, through the honorable members of the Supreme Court of the United States and through the diplomatic corps as represented by American ministers and ambassadors accredited to all parts of the world, and last in the house of her fathers, and that, therefore, she must mind how she behaves herself (Hearty applause). No Thought of Deportation. And today in the public schools of the South, and in the colleges of the South, thousand teachers are impressing the rising generation of young men that they have got to prepare themselves, not only mentally but morally for great, public national leadership. And this has been a directive of public opinion and a sober sense of obligation toward the Negro. Not only is that because of our good humor or the favorable situation in which we find ourselves, for which President Wilson is primarily responsible, but we have stopped talking down South about exporting the Negro. (Hearty applause) John Tempel coaxed talking about it, and Bishop Turpin has come to heaven (a laughter and applause). The truth of the business is, there were never two white men out of a thousand who ever meant what he said or really desired the exportation of the Negro when they were talking about it in the South. And we have settled down now to an understanding as to the permanency of the nation, and we are looking upon them not as a liability but as an asset. (Hearty applause.) Dr. Booker T Washington has spoken to you about the likely effect of the European war upon immigration. He warned you of competition with foreigners, and he told us to our shores in large numbers when the great conflict shall have ceased in central Europe. I noted the effect upon you as he talked to you about this immigration but you may be sure that the last place this immigration is coming is going to be the Southland. Why? Because the people that mine out of ten white men in the South don't want foreigneers—they are satisfied with the Negroes. (Laughter) Women! Girls!

And already labor unions and other prominent organizations have passed anti-foreign labor resolutions when they began talking about bringing the Belgians to the South not many months ago. And if you don't believe the white people want the Negroes to stay in the South, you go down there and try to bring a thousand of them away. "Southern." We used to have no trouble with the Negroes of Pegleg Williams. He was the fellow who tried to get a lot of colored people to go West or somewhere else, and they put him in jail. (Laughter.) That is an actual fact of history. And we now have a settled conviction in the South that he is of us, and that he has an abiding place in the Southern States (Prolonged applause.) Southern Schools Have Harmonized Ideals. There is another great contribution to the better state of mind which I feel called upon to mention. During the last twenty years there has been a vast improvement in the way and manner that the Negro leaders themselves have been thinking of the condition and needs of the South. In education principally and especially, the ideals have been practicalized and those ideals have now been well adjusted to the established institutions such as our religious and missionary societies were endeavoring to carry out, so today there is, in the South no conflict of friction between the Christian Tuskegee Ideas and the African institutions which offered a diplomatic training for the Negro youth. There has been a growing tendency to so merge or coralate the academic with manual, industrial, and religious training as to give to the Negro youth not only education of the head of a nation of the hand and heart as well, which indeed is the most important education will be used for and will make of him the most useful citizen. Today the central idea that characters Hampton Tuskegee, as well as all other educational institutions designed for members of your race, is that the Tuskegee be trained and prepared to be trained not merely to shine but to do something worth while and be a welcoming host to your race and the community in which he may dwell. There is now no conflict between the Hampton Tuskegee idea and the other ideals of education in the general atmosphere thinking on the South. Note and more I have seen in the State colleges, in the public and religious schools that the Tuskegee idea and Hampton idea has percolated through and into the progo college of which I am a trustee, and all this has contributed greatly to a better state of public opinion. For the white people of the South see that if you have the common sense to suit your boys and girls, your young men and young women you are making it worth while for them to have the Negro as a neighbor. (Appease.) Property Owing Negro is Respected. You show me a Negro in the South who has acquired property and intelligence but him upright and honest, and I tell you that if he is known to take dollars in his possession, you and that some white man is his friend and that some black man is his friend, I have never known it to fall in any community (and I have had much experience in many communities of the South) that where a Negro owned some land, owned a little farm, owned his hut, owned a crop of cotton or any other crop, owned a farmed seeded area in that community. The more talk there shall be like that which I cooker T. Washington gave you tonight, the more there is going to be a solid basis in the sentiment of the South and in this entire country that man in every astray of the Negro must in every life (Proposed ablsease). and THI (hearts applause) And rhemeron, we are going down on our knees and praying to God to help us (hearts applause) our second thought—we are thankful the Negro more and more that is a Southern Man, not only as the most part Southern but also as the greatest advocate in the greatest race whether in business or in education in America. A position of property or that have on模版 and work and that will fall within the South or that for having lived there are from the South the most impossibly instances of her life as well as in other southern states that will fall within the latter. The other distress from the southern states of Africa to the planet of the South where the great masses of your people now abide and I point to the time that the Negro in the Southern States of America will not tolerate that the southern states The Negro Loves the South And more than everything else we believe that the Negro is capable of being 'everything that God intended him to be (applause)—we believe that God made everything for a purpose. He created the little seed and endowed that little seed with the power of becoming a beautiful, fragrant flower; he made the little acorn and gave it oak, the little acorn and gave it oak, and God's purpose is not fulfilled unless that little seed develops into a flower, and that little acorn becomes a sturdy oak tree. And we know that God has put it into every one of his creatures to fulfill their lives, to get out of themselves every possibility that lies within their nature, and we of the South are beginning to realize, as much NEGRO is CAPABLE OF PROGRESS! BECAUSE WE HAVE SEEN HIS PROGRESS AT OUR VERY DOORS! (Prolonged applause.) You may talk about progress made in this country by Negroes, but I will tell you where the greatest progress it. You won't find it up here in such isolated cities like Boston (laughing at the progress that has been made in this entire country or in the world during the last fifty years will be found in the southern states of America. (Applause.) In spite of whatever may be said against the Southland, therein has your race made its best showing and progress, and once the South are witnesses to it, and we believe in it. Education' Improves the Colored People. While there may be some discouragements, and certain discriminations, and onlust laws upon the statute books there is today in the hearts of the teachers that education improves the colored people, that it makes them more self-respecting, more law-abiding, and of greater service to themselves their families, and their communities, therefore, we are not helping them to use their education and in encouraging Negroes in the attainment of their worldly aspirations, we are not helping them to make of themselves all they can be but at the same time we are conscious materially to build up their self-esteem and helping to build up the common cause. My friend Dr. Washington, in his annual address referred to the American Indian and contrasted the little progress that has been made by the Native Americans, with that has been made by the black race in this country. Do you know why the Negro has made the progress that he I want to submit a scientific observation. He has made the progress that he has made with the forces that were above him. The true leader, the true adviser, the true friend of the Negro North or South is not the man who inculcates resentment and the attitude of offense, but the man who perpetually a ground with him, and I can prove it (Heart disease). The Lesson of Co-operation Did you ever stop to look at the loner the therer the bear and all other animals that belong to the ferrous, fighting type? They are dying out in the earth. They are becoming extinct everywhere where ever in the junches of the jungle, where ever in the forests where ever to think of the other type, for instance, the domestic animals, such as dogs, horses, and cows which are multiplying and improving every day. And why is this true? Because in one case the wild animals of the jungle can compete with the power that we have been given to them to be their perpetual custom to cherish recruitment and antagonism one against the other. They have been constantly fighting with tooth and claw amongst themselves and against their neighbors while the dog, the horse, and the cow that the people have accepted the destiny which an AI-Wise Providence has marked for them, have allied themselves to and are cooperating with the superior animals have become domesticated and as a result, they are not alone in the jungle, but they are still much milder and tighter, are being treated well by even part of the vitalized world.

The way of progress for any race depends upon common sense, the getting of knowledge and taking advantage of the opportunity. My friends I speak especially to New Englanders—to you, who frequently misunderstand and misinterpret conditions as they actually exist in the South. Your judgment would be materially altered. If you understand context better, know how to delineate down South, I am going to state the case as I see it is and don't intend to mince words in speaking about it. We have thirty million people in the South, and only ten million of that number are safely civilized. (Henryt laughter and applause.) We have only ten million people in the South in my opinion the administration of law and government and the safeguarding and protection of the social conventions and customs of civilization, could be safely left. That is to say—if it were possible to withdraw at one time from the Southern States the ten millions to whom I refer, and all those left behind were given employment and social affairs I fear that our Southern civilization would lape, and falter, and fall—which makes me repeat that we have thirty million people down there, only ten million of whom are safely, safely civilized. (Applause.) Of that ten million, nine million are white people and one million are where are the others? You have the case stated to you exactly as it is, and I think I know what's I'm talking about. The Ignorant Whites. Down there in the southern Appalachian mountains we have about five million white people who although of fine stock and representing some of the very best blood in our native-born American civilization, are nevertheless, for the most part, uneducated; their environment and environment should be; they know little of the science of government or the refining, uplifting influences of school and church life. All these people make a distinct problem which, thanks to God, is being solved very successfully. It is a problem of bringing them into contact with enlightenment and with the problem of resisting the incoming or development of uncivilized tendencies. They are self-sustaining; they own many square miles of farming and timber land, and we are building schools and churches for their mental and moral improvement. These five million people do not in my opinion, constitute any permanent part of the South. But, immediately below them, we have another so comprising five million white people who don't own anything, never did own any land, and whose fathers before them never did own anything any pay. We then take pains to investigate their record, and shall tell you, briefly, of their history and character. The Prejudiced Hill-Billy. When the colonists first settled in such so then states as South Carolina, North Carolina and southern Georgia, it was a prevailing custom among many of the families to enqueue a number of indentured servants employed a number of men-servants and paid residents who signed and swore to serve, and they were imported to this country every year in inexperiably large numbers coming out of the servant slaves in Ireland, England and Scotland. In England, they did not any and over there (a laughter). And their fathers before them over there never did any of the land. (Laughter.) Parents Are Your Children IDLE?

Consequently when they landed upon these American-shores and came to the South, they had no land passion—no cravings for the ownership of proprietors, family stayed with the well-to-do family and adventures servants" making but little material progress. After the lapse of years, in competition with slave labor and for other reasons, they gradually became the most famous homes in which they were employed, whites, practically penitless, and those of them who had saved anything and who went out by themselves to stake out a little piece of land, did not have the maturity, the necessary knowledge of agriculture or the business capacity to hold it. This was the very class of people who constituted a disturbing element on my grandfather's plantation just before the Civil War. My good friend, the Nexro, who is one of your prosperous neighbors in the South, lives not far from my old home and is acquainted with my family history. On my grandfather's plantation there were many families of white people who never owned any land or anything else; they were dependent upon the land and this condition was characteristic in many other plantations in the South. And these people, even before the Civil War, were antagonistic toward the Negro. They seemed to bear toward the Nexro a special antigravity and affinity with the land on the part of the Negro slaves and pursues intensified after the former slave had become a freedman. The Poor White Enviied and Hated the Negro. Why, it was an actual fact that the Negro slave on the southern plantation thought himself superior to the poor white man who did not own anything, the slave who worked so for a good, sound, healthy Negro, worth all the way from $1,000 to $1,300 to his master, and if that slave got sick there was something done, master got busy, mistress got busy, the doctor got busy, the nurse very close, for aside from that affection (which existed in so many instances) the slave possessed in his body a big property value. To lose him was to lose a big pile of money, and the Negro on the plantation generally recorded themselves as superior in value and im- HAIR CULTURE Thousands are making a success. Why not you?

Address Sheltop & Joes, 1919 Spring- importance to the poor white man who did not possess intrinsic value, who did not own anything, and yet was deceived by the things he needed or received. On the other hand the higher regard in which the master held the Negro slave, made that slave the object of envy and hat with the part of the poor white man with whom he underwhelped he worked. Now that represents the conditions that generally exiled before the Clyll War between the Negro slaves and the white settlers to whom he ferred. When the white had defeated it left the South impoverished; fortunes had been swept away; loved ones had been lost; homes had been wrecked; the slaves were emancipated and the settlers served as "indentured servants" were like the slaves, largely without employment. There were hard times in the South from 1867 to 1880. During the reconstruction period I remember the reconstitution as as big as a cart wheel. (Laughter.) Immediately after the war we lost slight of these poor white people who never did own anything; they became mixed up in the changing social situation, but in 1880, when a number of railroads came to the South, they created a magnificent or the most glorious door for them, who are now strung together practically all the railroads of the South and who still live down there as tenants and renters for the most part. We have about three million of these people who are segregated in various sections, many of whom live in the same neighborhood with prosperous, progressive Negro farmers who were not segregated in the same or an increased amount of antigonism toward the Negro that existed before the war.

When we investigated them, we men were there; there was not a single one of them where name appeared upon the tax books ofrol on County, Georgia—the county and state wherein the crime occurred. They never did own any land, and their fathers before them did not own anything. Now, there, my friends, you have the secret of our trouble. Let me emphasize that one point. When you see me by bicycle by a door, or fortunate creature down our way—the news concerning which you occasionally see printed in prominent headlines, I want you to distinly understand that the real-white people of the South, those who live in the South and who have any "blue blood"coursing through their veins, those who reverence her traditions, who cherish her identity who believe in the future—build schools and who maintain churches don't have anything to do with it.

And lastly, we have ten million Negoes who constitute a permanent part of this great American republic, and whose welfare and progress both merit and demand serious consideration.

The whole affair was lamentable, but somehow it seems that just such events are necessary at times to stir the public conscience. The lynching of FRANK raised many a voice against lawlessness and race prejudice, but no influential voice was raised that struck a truer and deeper note than that of DR. STEPHEN S. WISE. Dr. Wise, in addressing the congregation of the Free Synagogue at Carnegie Hall on the Jewish New Year, pronounced some sentiments which for their humanitarian breadth have not been reached by any other man who, has the great public ear. He said, in part: "If lawlessness be as in truth it is, one of the gravest diseases of the body, politic—a disease of which lynching is no more than a horrid symptom—even at the risk of being misunderstood, the Jew must firmly and inexplicitly insist upon the supremacy of the law; not to serve a fellow Jew, but to safeguard the rights of men. "Lynching became more conspicuous when Frank was lynched, but no more horrible nor hemicrush than it had been before. In the world as it is the Jew is usually the first victim of wrong and evil-doing. Whether this be true or not, the Jew must ever be wrong's mightiest assailant, evil's resistless foe. "Aggressively, militantly, resistlessly must the Jew battle for truth and right and justice. Not for himself alone, nor for himself whether, nor for himself at all, but that truth and right and justice be of and for all men." And that is the lesson for this country to learn. It must understand and practice the principle that no citizen is safe unless all citizens are safeguarded. Of course, the lynching of FRANK was a terrible crime, but no worse than the innumerable crimes that are perpetrated against Negroes. Let the Nation awake to the fact that the lynching of the humblest black citizen in a Southern backwoods is as dangerous to the welfare of the State as the lynching of the richest and most influential citizen of any other race. AS TO GEORGIA This is how the New Republic magazine views the sovereign State of Georgia: We shall have to be charitable to Georgia, as we are to Haiti or the more primitive Balkan states. We shall have to recognize that there is a people suffering from slavery, from a false reconstruction, from too sudden contact with a higher civilization. It has self-government, though it is not yet fit for it. Only a small section of its people have risen to the normal civilization of the Western world. The rest are primitive, uneducated burdened with a citizenship which is more than they are capable of. The state needs schools, it needs protection against itself, it needs the guidance of comparatively well-educated people, the comment on the Frank case to kind and forbearing and helpful to Georgia. There may come a time when it will be ready to act as a self-respecting member of the American Union-Editorial, The New Republic, August 21, 1915. It is to be hoped that Georgia man"sit it himself "to act as a self-respective member of the American Union!" WHY? The murder of Mrs. Nicholas, the millionaire widow of Fifth avenue, through the collusion of her doorman, who is a Russian attendant, or some such thing, brings to mind this question. Why do rich Americans go out of their way to hire unknown foreigners in their households, when they have here colored men and women whose loyalty they need never doubt, and who would do the work just as well? VIEWS AND REVIEWS A COURAGEOUS SOUTHERN MAYOR. In the last few issues we have said some rather hard things about Georgia in particular and the South in general, and we don't take back a single syllable; in fact, we reassert and reaffirm everything we said. We have always admitted that there are liberal-minded white people in the South, people who down in their hearts believe in human rights and justice, but we have maintained that these people are cowed by Southern public opinion, that they dare not speak out for unqualified justice and fair play to the Negro, that they are bullied into silence by the Southern low brows and professional Negro baiters. We have also pointed out that the brightest hope for the Negro—and the South, for that matter—is in having liberal-minded white Southerners assert their independence. Just so long as it is unsafe for a white man in the South to say publicly that he believes the Negro should receive fair play and an equal chance, just so long will the Negro be denied fair play and an equal chance, and just so long will the South be held back in the chains of its own prejudice. Once in a while, some Southern white man who will no longer be cowed into silence does assert his independence, and speaks out publicly for justice to the Negro, without modifying what he says or making any apologies for saying it. People who are not familiar with the power of Southern sentiment cannot appreciate how brave a man must be who dares to defy it; charging a German trench is owing to compare with it. Mayor Bowden of Jacksonville, Fla., is a man with that sort of bravery. Certain politicians in Jacksonville, for various reasons well known to themselves, were trying to change the city charter. The colored citizens, for the best of reasons, were against the change. The better class of white citizens were also opposed to the change. A mass meeting of colored citizens was held at the Masonic Temple: Mayor Bowden attended this meeting and spoke against the proposed change of the city charter. The ring of politicians paid for a third of a page in one of the Jacksonville daily papers and, to further their own ends and fight Mayor Bowden, inserted an advertisement headed in big black type "DO YOU BELIEVE IN ANEGRO DOMINATION!" A part of this advertisement consisted of a report of the mass meeting of colored citizens, and the balance was a comment from which we quote the following paragraphs: "This meeting was held as advertised and was attended by hundreds of colored people. Mayor Bowden spoke to this crowd and addressed them as 'Ladies and Gentlemen.' He expressed his deep regret that all of the 'gentlemen' were not voters, but requested them all to be missionaries to get out the fall colored vote to vote against the Charter amendment. September 7th He also referred with words of appreciation, to the former election several years ago, in which the colored voters had elected him Mayo. "For forty years our forefathers and ourselves have joined in the bitter struggle to tree our country from Negro domination, and now the chief executive of our beautiful city has tried to chain an obnoxious Charter upon our commonwealth by enlisting in our municipal election the votes of the colored men." There was more of it, but what is quoted above is sufficient to show that what we have more than once said in these columns about the intellectual and moral calibre of the average Southern politician is no exaggeration. Here is a set of men attempting to sway public opinion by referring to the fact that the mayor of a city, in speaking to a gathering of respectable colored people, addressed them as "Ladies and Gentlemen." And because the mayor urged these colorful citizens to go to the polls and cast their votes against a certain measure, the cry of "Negro Domination" is raised. The whole thing sounds too absolutely absurd to be true, but it is true; and it is men who will stoop to means of just this sort who are generally the most active and influential politicians in the South. Now, that ironical thrust about addressing colored people as "Ladies and Gentlemen" would have set most Southern white men to explaining and denying; and the cry of "Negro domination" would have made them seek the cyclone cellar. But Mayor Jackson is made of different stuff. At a subsequent mass meeting of white citizens, he spoke, in part, as follows. We quote from a Jacksonville daily: He said that upon invitation he has spoken to what was known as the colored board of trade at a meeting held in the Negro Masonic Temple. "I am Mayor of Jacksonville" said Mr Bowden "I am Mayor of all the people of Jacksonville. One Negro in that audience pays more taxes than Farris, Daney and the whole bunch. As Mayor of the city I am determined that the Negro shall receive fair play during my administration." Mayor Bowden was only doing his moral duty, but there are times when it takes the courage of heroism to do one's moral duty. If there were more Southern mayors and sheriffs and governors who had Mayor Bowden's sense of justice and his courage, the South would quickly take its place with the free and enlightened sections of the country. We wish to add that the charter change was defeated and Mayor Bowden sustained. · A NEW SOLUTION A writer in The Evening Mail sets forth a new solution of the Negro problem. His plan, to himself, is very simple. He claims that the whole question "can be solved at one stroke by the compulsory enlistment of every able-bodied male Negro between the ages of eighteen and forty in a huge standing army." He calculates that such an enlistment would provide the United States with an excellent army of one million men. The writer in The Mail pays a fine tribute to the loyalty and tightening record of colored men in all the wars of the United States, but he feels that all the officers of his million-men army should be white. He figures his plan out in detail: for example, he shows that this army could be maintained at very small cost, because in times of peace it could be employed in straightening out the Mississippi River, building dikes and levees, irrigating and reclaiming the American desert, building railroads and working mines in Alaska, and on other such odd jobs. Then, when war came along, they could be used as breastworks. Not a bad plan, if the Negro himself is not considered. Yet, as good a business deal as it would be to have a million able bodied men engaged on the national public works at fifteen dollars per month each, and ready to fight whenever needed, we are sure that the proposition will not appeal to the American people. In the first place, in spite of the Negro's superb loyalty, it would be only natural for the white people to hesitate about placing their safety in the hands of a million armed men of a race which is treated as they treat the Negro. Their own consciences would make them hesitate. If the writer in The Mail is most concerned about military preparedness for this country, we say to him that no compulsory enlistment will be necessary for the Negro. In times past when he did not have so much to fight for, he has freely and bravely risked his life for the flag; he will do the same to-day, if it is required. If the writer in The Mail is most concerned about solving the Negro problem, we say to him there is only one solution, and that is to treat the Negro justly and give him a fair chance. In other words, a square deal and only a square deal will do it. Now comes forward the Honorable William Jennings Bryan with another grand idea hatched out in the incubator which he works on his shoulders. Instead of spending hundreds of million dollars to increase the army and navy, he would have the Government take that money and build twelve well paved roads running parallel from the Atlantic to the Pacific. His idea is, in case we were attacked by an enemy, the "citizen soldiers,"—that is, the farmers—could jump into their fords and quickly mobilize "by tens of thousands" at any point threatened with invasion. There is not an inmate of any lunatic asylum in the country who would not be ashamed to acknowledge himself the author of any such plan of defense. An invading army of a great military power could wish for nothing better than good roads upon which it could meet the "citizen soldiers" mobilizing by "tens of thousands" and armed with shot-guns and 32 calibre revolvers. In fact, the only thing that would make the work of the invading army easier and quicker would be to have the "citizen soldiers" mobilize by millions instead of by "tens of thousands." It is hard to figure out whether Bryan, a man who has been Secretary of State of the United States, really has these dreams or is merely trying to relieve the national tension by getting off a few huge jokes. A PLAIN LETTER In another column we reproduce a letter which was written to THE Sun by a white Southern man. It is a reply to a letter written by the editor of the Augusta. (Ga.) Herald and printed in The Sun a few days ago. The editor of the HERALD, in his letter, had condemned the lynching of FRANK, but, at the same time, he felt called upon to write a eulogy upon Georgia culture, etc., etc. This is the common weakness of the most liberal-minded Southerners; they do not dare to make an unmodified condemnation of the faults of their section; a ruthless public sentiment almost completely muzzles them. The editor of The Augusta Herald could not condemn such an atrocious crime as the lynching of FRANK without paying a glowing tribute to the virtues of Georga and Georgians; thus, of course, robs his condemnation of all force. The letter in reply, which we reproduce, is signed by EINWIX W. WALKFR, who states that he is a Southerner with six generations of Southern ance-tors, and that he lived in Augusta for ten years. So there can be no doubt as the gemineess of his communence. He has written some plain facts, and we call our readers' attention to what he says. It is just such plain statements of facts that the South needs to learn how to face without getting hot in the collar. And it needs more men like Mr. WALKER, who are willing and not afraid to state these facts. But Mr. WALKER wrote in New York, a fairly safe distance from Augusta. We have the conviction that he would never have written such a letter in Augusta, and we are none the less sure that he has no intention of spending the coming winter in that fair Southern city. A. FEDERAL CRIME Since the regrettable lynching of LEO M. FRANK in Georgia, "the citizen" of that State have been on the defensive TOM WATSON and his crowd of rough necks have gloried as much as they have dared about the lynching of FRANK, and in their boasts that they mean to keep,black people down, but the so-called best people of Georgia are holding their heads down in shame In the meantime, however, the papers of the East have been working up sentiment against Georgia, looking to place it outside the pale of civilization. As long as Negroes were lynched by the hundreds nothing was said about making lynching a federal crime, in fact. President after President and Attorney General after Attorney General continued to protest that lynching was a State crime and would have to be handled by the authorities of the Southern States Now, however, that a white man and a lew with thousands of dollars behind his cause is the victim of murder at the hands of Georgia's rough necks, there is a cry to make beaching a federal crime. The two clippings which follow, reproduced from New York newspapers, are somewhat different and yet apropos: All Lynchning Equally Disgraceful. To the Editor of the Evening Sun—Sir. A bit of philosophy in Frank Case would help fair play with every one With every decent man and I condemn the crime perpetrated on Frank in Georgia. Why do we confine our condemnation to Frank's case? Does not the Lynchning in the abstract deserve it? It does. Crime is always a crime independently of its connection with its victim. On the day after the killing of Frank TD. Evening Sun goes out this day to inform its guests. "Montgomery Va. Three Negroes were killed for killing mules" "I had to say that comment on this hit in the papers, we used with the army, they did not even mention how do they view the Lynch- ing of the First Negro?" "I in some luncher whoever they me, in some case, the tempera- tion of which is not exposed by the color the race, the color, even the wronging of their victim M J New York, Aug 21 Make Lynching a Federal Crime. Lincoln of the Globe Sir- If through the Lynching of Frank some real constructive effort is put forward to enforce law and order in the South law actice will have been profitably made Make agreed on the lawlessness of the South. "The question next arises what it done and how." It log constitution guarantees a republican form of government to every State. The Southern States are in lawlessness—actual anarchy. Professor Albert Business Hart of Harvard declares, "religious men have taken part in lynching in the last ten years, and not a single one has been punished. Congress can, declare that no republican government exists in the Southern States and actually go in there and establish law and order, just as it did in Cuba, is now doing in Haiti, and may move in Mexico. Secondly, it can make lynching a crime against the federal government and not allow states to handle lynch law crimes. In doing this the federal government would not only be acting according to President Wilson's "dietates of humanity," but upon an indisputable constitutional right, and in response to an urgent public duty. A few convictions and executions would make lynching extremely unpopular. LEO FRANK will not have died in vain if his murder is made the occasion for bringing the mobbocrats of the South into the federal courts where their foul crimes may be judged by authorities strong enough to withstand the blandishments of social influences. It is high time that the United States begin to purge itself of the foul crime of lynching. As long as Negroes alone have been lynched, the whole country has been content to let the pastime continue. It is worth while to have the country wake up to this barbaric crime, and it is certainly time for it to be blotted out from among us. THE SCHOOL CHILD The public schools are again open. Let colored parents enter their children promptly, and keep them in school regularly until the end of the term. Let them also see that their children go to school as clean as any other set of children, and dressed as neatly as they can afford to have them. Give the children every possible chance to fit them-selves for the battle of life. GEORGIA. A Non-Hebraic Southerner Discusses Her Pericularities. (The following letter was published on the New York Sun of September 10.) 77. The Editor of the Sun Sir I lived 'on earth' in Augusta, Ga. and I know that city as well as I know my foot yard. The letter published in the Sun of September 5 from Thomas 5 Hamilton of the Augusta Herald about the Frank case and Georgia culture and humanity and so on describes a reply from somebody who knows Georgia as well as Mr Hamilton does. After reading this reply Mr Hamilton may assume that I am a Northerner or a Jew, or something else that we consider to be instinctive and, of the kind I am a Southerner with six generations of Southern ancestors among whom there is not a single Jew, Mr Hamilton says that "Georgia with all her troubles does not send white slaves to the South, and white slave route" I am one of those who do not take much stock in the history of reports of widespread white slavery investigators. Some girls are aid and some are not, and it does not matter whether they live in Georgia or New York. But so far as Georgia and, particularly, Amstera are concerned I am sure that I must take issue with Mr. Hamilton. The red light district are filled with mill girls who were induced to enter the 10 through methods almost identical with those employed by the white slavers of New York's East Side Slave or white slavers were sent to the penitentiary. It is well known in Augusta to well-armed people that the population of those resorts is certified in this way. Prostitution in Augusta is organized and wide open as it is in most southern cities. There is not the smallest protest on the part of anybody there. The newspapers in Augusta, in high tones to print them but so small they only describe descriptions of Ws. So and Ss. toilet and the doings of the Rotary Club, a local organization for self-service. queensland pride in her power canal and her gentle cotton mills, which line its river banks. Her cotton factory operatives, placed on the top, have combined and in conditions of squall and wind which would not be tolerated for a day by the self-respecting workmen of New York. There is no child labor restriction in Georgia to impound in another and the result is a combined and limited little children are working in New York cotton mills. In writing the children's concern and little child labor work before they leave home for dark days and the little white children their duties and training up in their mother the Negro children must be told a sensible and caring to school. It is a positive that the Negroes are progressing faster in August than the white children. can only look with horror on this and the results that are sure to come from it. You can hardly imagine the poverty and sadden misery of the average factory hand's home. In this limited space I will not attempt to describe the Harrisburg factory hand (Harrisburg factory hand) (Harrisburg factory hand) (Harrisburg factory hand) is the true white slave, though he is too ignorant and illiterate to know it. Has the Augusta Herald ever written of these conditions? Never. Why not? The Southern people have such an exaggerated and false idea of local criticism; they are all blood relatives of the housekeeper who swept the trash under the bed and called the house clean. The consequence is that the Augusta Herald pursues its innocuous and puerile way, filled with patent medicine advertisements and society foldeventure, the greatest problems that confront the American nation are starting it in the face. Mr. Hamilton asserts that Georgia does not have thugs and gunmen, the intimidation being that Georgia is far holder than New York in its consideration for human life. The figures do not favor him out. The number of homicide statistics is 1912. In that year there were sixty-seven murders in Atlanta; I haven't the figures for Augusta. That same year there were 274 murders in Greater New York. In New York there are 5,000,000 people; in Atlanta 160,000. On the New York side as against Atlanta the New York should have 2,200 murders a year instead of 274. I have known men in Augusta who would kill for money, gunmen plain and simple. One of them was hanged a few years ago for killing his wife. Several years before his crime, he offered to do it if I would produce the money. For years he went his criminal course,protected by a political guilt. If Mr. Hamilton will go to the neighborhood of Hick's Hall, a well-known place in Augusta, or send a request to the police, he will acquainted with some habitues of the velocity, he will soon meet a well established heeler who will introduce him to gunmen who will beat, kill or steal for hire. Georgia, among other things, is that she thinks too little of Mary Phagan alive and too much of Mary Phagan dead. In the mill district of Augusta Mr. Hamilton will find whole battalions of white-faced, thin and anamale little girls worked for ages, which would be the Mary Phagans of Augusta. I and scores of Southerners in New York condemn Georgia in the Frank case because she convicted Leo Frank on evidence that would not hang a duck. He has been accused of having believed that any Southern community could sink to such a level that it would convict a white man on the virtually unsupported evidence of a Negro criminal, bar and perjury. He has been accused of molliple people in Georgia, hundreds of thousands of them, men like Judge Henry C Hammond of Augusta. But if they have raged a voice of protest against Georgia's plunge into barbarism it has so far failed in New York. EDITWN W. WALKER New York, Sept. 9. WHAT THE PEOPLE SAY WHAT THE PEOPLE SAY THE UPLIFT MOVEMENTS To the Editor of The Age: Apropos your article of last week with reference to the Negro and Uplift Movements. I call your attention to the following editorial just clipped from Colored Anthem of Montgomery Mia, a newspaper published by R. C. Judkins, one of the most honored bartist ministers of the South: The Alabama Legislature is now drawing to a close. It has put itself squarely on record as being a Negro-hating organization. As we have said before we do not unify Alabama. They hate and abuse Negroes more than the whiskey people do. They would prohibit the manufacture and sale of whiskey, but they themselves need to be protected from abusing and ill-treatment our people. "The Alabamian does not believe in the kind of temperance they believe in. They believe in a temperance that relates to whiskey or wine, and in its importance. It is used on Righteousness and Justice and those know no race or color. We do not believe that the men who make up the Prohibition Party in Alabama today will be able to keep the saloons closed. They are not true prohibitionists they are politicians. They are hostile to Negro education and there is a strong sentiment in the local response to the prohibition act that will provide humiliating to the Negro race. The Alabamian has no confidence in the fairness or justice of the present Prohibition-Political Party agenda." All of which which show that you are absolutely on the right track in exposing the leaders in these so-called "Uplift Movements." A. A. O. C. Washington, D.

When France was practicing the "duel militaire" why did not the other nation point the finger of scorn? Because their own civilization was hardly in an enlarged form of the "duel militaire" perhaps. If the United States has not had those factors to contend With it is because its national life, like another Missouri spring full-capped from the brains of Jupiter (England), or, like the lion in the hands of species, dropped in the hands of humans in the grave and strength of robbers manned for the founders of the Americas nationality were the intellectual moral and social elite of England they were aided in their task by time flower of French chivalry. Until the United States, this nation goes into life under conditions exacerbated by the hazards of war. Centuries ago, when enriched gold was declared that "the sins of the fathers are visited on the children," humanity did not seize the full import of the revolution contained in that message. The real consequence as the reward of our sin, until modern science adds psychology to physiology recognized as possibility of mental and more operations as a result of hereditary traits. That necessarily central and volitional limitations as well. their own, then what it must mean that the founders of the Haytian nation or unnumbered centuries had grievous the blinding obscurity of their nature and cast on this island, their priesthood radiation was reinforced and rendered still more abject by three full centuries of oppression and slavery. And so if that did not suffice, Spain Erase Portugal and France, opened the seas and sent them, by the vilest form of possession, to furthermore poison at the very sources of their spiritual being, the descendants of that most unfortunate and forlorn people. All Europe sent its felons, its cuttles, its devils, its deserts of vile and crime, to disgorge the sins of their mental aberrations and moral pollutions on the cradle of the nation to be. Is it small wonder that with such an ancestry, with such a taint in her mental and moral condition, in a perpetual fever of unrest, and her civic life in a chronic state of eruption? We could extend the parallel. The population of the United States constantly be reused by the advent of new forces, has sustained vitality. For the past century, the best that the other nations can furnish in the line of laborers, mechanists or agricultural, because only those who are ambitious enough to be dissatisfied with their surroundings possessed of zeal and determination. Those who come to her shores and know her are likely to emigrate. Wit that it is just the opposite. For the most part it is the individual with no credit at home, mental, moral or otherwise, who come to her shores, to spurn in her politics or win easy profit by the prestige of their color. Education alone, sound religious and moral training, can hope to counteract the threat and hasten the disappearance of chronic civic distempers.

Telephone Marlens TELEPHONE 3593-M Harlem Don't Hall to Visit the New Cabaret Dining Room of the THE ARSNAL HOUSE 449 Seventh Avenue (Near Pennsylvania Station) Between 34th and 35th Streets SMART SET AT LAFAYETTE NEXT WEEK IN A NEW SHOW DRAMATICS AND ATHLETICS THE NEW YORK AGE THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 16 THEATRICAL COMMENT. INSTEAD of coming to Harlem at the close of the season as heretofore, the Smart Set will reverse things by playing at the Lafayette Theatre Monday next, thereby giving New Yorkers an opportunity to pass judgment on the new show, "George Washington Builton Abroad," before the company goes South. The latest odometer of the Smart Set is a musical comedy in three acts and ten scenes, and those who have seen it say it is the best thing this well-known organization has presented in years. Salem Tutt Winney J. Homer Tutt, Blanche Thom, soo, Hattie Akers and other old favorites will be seen in "George Washington Builton Abroad" which contains a number of song hits, including "Love Me, Anywhere," "Kentucky Hills," "Smiln Sum" "Don't Do THE MISSING MEN OF THE WORLD THE SALEM TUTT WHITNEY That to Me. Dear," "Back to Dixie" and "Dear Old Southern Moon." There will be no change in prices. Despite the midsummer weather the attendance at the Lafayette Theatre has been more in keeping with the regular season, which is taken as an indication that Harlem amusement-jowers are hungry for indoor entertainment and care naught about the September heat, which is regarded as unyielding, for this time of the year. But the brand of entertainment being given at the Lafayette probably has much to do with the crowd that have been in evidence the past ten days. All the bills have been of high order and the subject is complimentary comment. This week Irwin C. Miller is producing another musical tablol of sixty minutes, which contains many humorous situations, and gives Henry Jines, that diminutive comedian of much promise, an opportunity to show that he can successfully carry a show as chief fun-maker. This young man is bound to attract more than passing attention as a comedian if he continues to improve in his-work. He can speak lines, sing and dance, and whatever he does is done well. Esther Bigou is also seen to advantage and dresses attractively. The other members of the act, all or whom are hard workers, strive earnestly to make the act entertaining, and succeed in the attempt Lulu Coates, the most hustling, businesslike colored girl in vaudeville, is appearing in the best and most up-to-date turn of her career. Three clever boys assist her, and they are heartily encored in each and every number. There is not a weak spot in the act, which is saying much. Miss Coates has always paid marked attention to costuming her acts, and she has excelled all previous efforts in this direction. Not only does she change for each number, but her boys do likewise. Archee Leon Ware, Wilford Blanks and Harry Irons constitute the "crackerjacks" in the act, and they are crackerjack dancers and, contrary to the usual rule, can also sing. Lulu Coates and her Crackerjacks were the principal applause-getters on the bill at the Lafayette the first half of the week, and they are sure to win oodles of applause on any bill. Carey & Blake have a laughable sketch and the Ray Sisters have an act full of possibilities. During the week's engagement of the Smart Set the country store feature will be held as usual on Tuesday and Saturday. William Kimble, movie picture machine operator, is now managing the Ford Theatre, Lynchburg, Va. "WAY DOWN SOUTH." Many well up in theatricals profess to see in the new musical production soon to be launched, headed by Miller & Lyle, a new era for the colored musical show, which has not enjoyed the widespread popularity of former years since the passing away of the Williams & Walker, Cole & Johnson and Ernest Morgan companies, and it is the opinion of many that the new show will be show-making. Some of the race's leading composers for playwrights, including Will Marion Jones, A. S. Sapp, James Reese Europe and Henry Creamer, are committing their efforts to make the production the greatest colored show that has been seen in years—one that will be artistically Negro, and at the same time magnifying the better qualities of color. "Way Down South" will be the name of the production, which will be presented under the direction of Messrs. Morganstern & Walton, and those who have had the privilege of attending re- The image provided is too blurry to accurately recognize any text or graphics. It appears to be a grayscale close-up of a person's face, but no discernible details can be made. Cavani say the singing in "Way Down is far superior to that of any organical organization on broadway. Morgan & Lyns who have made a considerable reputation as black-race owns on the swingville circuits, will be seen Henry Troy, the race's great lyric tenor, Fannie Wise, Alice Adam W. Cooke and Thompson, Couper & Thompson. THEATRICAL IOTTINGS Saxon Tint Whitney's company opened Monday night at Gibson's Standard Lacatre Philadelphia, in "George Washington Bullion Abroad," to a packed house. Thomas A.

A NEGRO OF HONEST FAME (From the Hudson Dispatch, Hoboken, New Jersey. Joe Jeanette. Negro has retired from the prize ring, quitting the so-called profession after years of honest ring battles. So far as fighting goes, he has a credit to that kind of sport. He always put up a good fight—the host that was in him—and that is the reason he was always so popular and such a good drawing card. He was temperate in his habits and was always to fight. It may seem paradoxical, but he was a merciful fighter, he was not a brute, he never took advantage of a man whom he outlasted by giving him the beatings that would have been possible in basketball, in which game he is also a star he could display his marvellous strength to make opponents look ridiculous, if he go desired, but he never roughted it, and al- ways devoted his energies to "straight" playing. Jess Willard has drawn the color line, and Jeanette does not care to fool around with the left-over white hopes. He wanted to be champion, and was right in that class when at the height of his prime. Although some people look down upon Negroes, no white man ever conducted himself better than a boy of the sport than Joe Jeanette; he shares with Peter Jackson the good will of the white people. They were two great Negroes who were a credit to their race. BASEBALL RESULTS Lincoln Giants Lose to Chinese. The Chinese team of the University of Hawaii evened matters with the Lincoln Giants in the second game of their series at Olympic Field last Sunday by scoring a shutout, 5 to 0. The Orientals played a flashy brand of ball that kept about 7,000 fans on edge from start to finish. Banks of the Giants was knocked from the mound and Redding replaced him in the fifth inning. In the first game the Giants beat the New London Club, 6 to 4. The Chinese and Lincoln Giants will meet in the third game of their series next Sunday. The scores: First Game. At Olympic Field.....R.

When the Chinese University team defeated the Lincoln Giants, world’s colored champions, at Olympic Field, 136th street and Fifth avenue, last Sunday, they made out by shuttling the colored cracks out This is the first shutout for the Lincoln Giants this year. The same clubs have been booked to appear again on next Sunday, and it is sure to be a battle for blood. Japan, the great pitcher of the Chinese, will be in the box again for the Oriental, and will be opposed by "Cypress," the Chinese team, who has not pitched against the Chinese team yet. The wonderful fielding and hard hitting of the Chinese team hold the big crowd spellbound on Sunday, last, and the biggest attendance of the year is sure to result on Sunday next. The teams are very evenly matched in playing strength. New York Red Caps Play Ball in Washington. WASHINGTON, D.C.—The Red Caps baseball team from the Pennsylvania station, New York, and the Red Caps of the Washington union station, played two games in this city at the American League park, each team winning one.
