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
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.

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.

14. 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.

"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

DR. WISE ON LYNCHING.
The echoes of the Frank case
have not yet‘died out. The whole
affair was lamentable, but somehow
it scems that just such events are
necessary at times to stir the pub-
lic conscience. The lynching of
FraXk raised many a voice against
lawlessness and racé prejudice. but
no influential voice was raised that
struck a truer and deeper note than
that of De. Srerues S. Wise.
Dr. Wise, in addressing the con-
gregation of the Free Svnagogue at
Carnegie Hall on the Jewish New
Year, pronounced some sentiments
which fur their humanitarian
breadth have not been reached by
any. other man who, has the great
public ear. “He said. in part: |
“IE lawlessness be as an truth it
is, one ci the gravest diseases of the
pody politica disease of which
Iynching ty ne more than a horrid |
syinptom—even at the risk of being
misunderstood, the Jew must firmly
and inflexibly’ msist- upon the su-
Premacy uf the law; not to serve a
fellow Jew. but to’ safeguard the 7
raghts of men.
“Lynching became more conspicus
ous when Frank was iynched, bur no |
more horrible nor hemous than
had been béfore. In the warld ay
~.is the Jew is ustially the first victim
9f Wrong and evil-dong. Whether
this be true or not, the Jew must
ever be wrong’s mghtest’ assailant,
evil’s resistless ive :
“Aggressively, militantly, resést-
Iessly must the Jew battle for truth
cand right and justice, Not for him-
self alone, nor for himself whetly,
nor for himself a: all, fut that truth
and nght and justice be of and for
all men,
And that is the lesson for this
country to learn. It must under-
stand and practice the principle that
no citizen 1s safe unless all citizens
are safegtiirded. Of course, the
lynching of Feyx was a terrible
crime, but no worse than the innu-
merable crimes that are perpetrated
against Negroes. Let the Nation
awake to the fact tha the lynching
of the humblest black citizen in a
Southern backwoods is as danger-
ous to the welfare of the Stite as
the lynching of the richest and most
influential citizen ef any other race

PPP LAL PALL LIE PALI ALA LIND LAL
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 every-
thing we said, We have always admitted that there are liberal-
minded white.peuple in the South, people who down in their hearts
belieye 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 Southera’ low ‘brows and profes-
sional Negro baiters,
We have also pginted out that the brightest hope for the Negro
and thé South, for, that matter—is in having liberal-minded white
Southerners assert their independence. Just so lung 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 devied fatr play and an-equal chance, and just so
long will the South be held baek’in the chains of its own prejudice.
|. Once ina while, some Southern white man who will no longer
he cowed into silence des assert his independence, and speaks out
pubhely for justice to the Negro, without modifying what he says
‘r making any apologies for saying it. People who are not iamiliar
with the power of Southern sentiment cannot appreciate how brave
a man must be who dares to defy it; charging a German trench is
vahing to compate with it, :
Mayor Bowden of Jacksonville, Fla., is a man with that sort
of bravery.
Certain politicians in Jagksomville, fur various reasons well
known to themselves, were trying to change the city charter. The
colored ctizens, ior the best oi reasons, Were agaiast the change.
The better class of white citizens were also upposed to the change.
\ mass meeting of colored citizens was held at the Masonic Temple:
Mayor Howden attended this meeting and spoke against the pro-
pesed change of the city charter,
. The rng 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 Huwden, inserted an advertisement headed in big black type
"DO YOU BELIEVE INASNEGRO DOMINATION! \ part of
this adyertisement consisted of a report of the mass meeting of col-
ored citizens, and the balance was a comment irom which we quote
the following paragrphs: :
“This meeting was held as advertised and was attended by
hundreds of colored people Mayer Bowden spoke to this crowd
and addressed them as “Ladies and Gentlemen" He expressed his
decy regret that all of the “gentlemen” were not voters, but
se Fopiested them all ty he misstonariss te et out the fall colored
Vote te vote agamst the Charter amen fev nts ie S ptember 7th
He ako referred wth words ef apprecetien, te. the. former
election several years azo. im whieh the colured voters had elected
him Mayo~
“Bor forty sears our forefathers and ourselves have jeated in é
the Intter streggle te tres one country from Negro demmation.
and new the citef execute of our beautiful orty has tried to
chain an ebttuxteus Charter upon ocr commonncatth by enlisting:
in uur musierpal election the Votes of te etered men”
There was more of it, but what is quoted above is suficent te
shew that what we have more than une 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 refer-
ring to the fact that the mayor of a city, jn speaking to a gathering
of respectable colored peuple, addressed them as “Jadies and Gentle-
men.” And because the mayor urged these colurd citizens 10 go tp
the polls and cast their votes against’a certain measure. the cry of
“Negro Domination” is raised. “The whole thing sounds ton abso-
lutely absurd ty be true. but itis true: and it is mei whe will stoop
teemeans of just this sort who are generally the most active and
influential politicians in the South. .
Now, that ironical ‘thrust about addressing culored people as
“Ladies and Gentlemen” would have set most Sorithern white men
te explaining 8nd denying: and the ery of “Negro domination” would
have made them seek the cyclone cellar But Mayor Boren is
made of different stuff \ta’subseqnient mass meeting of white citi-
zens, he spoke, in part, as follows. We quote irom: a Jacksonville
daily :
He sant that apon imitation he bat spoken te what wae known:
as the colored beard of trade at a meeung held im the Negro

“Tam Mayor of Jacksonville sad Me Bowden “Lam Mayor
et all the people of Jacksomatl One Negro in that audtence
Ware thre tases thant Farrie, Danes ane thie wte Inch, As
Mayor of the city Pan determined that the Negro shall recene
far play during my administration”
Mayor Bowden was only domg his moral duty, Lat there are
times when it takes the courage of hervism to-do caie’s moral duty.
Hi there were more Southern mayors and sherifs and governors whe
had Mayor Bowden's sense 7 justine and his conrage. dhe Semh
would quickly take its plaice with the free and enlightened sections
of the country.
We will te add that the charter change was defeated and
Mayor Bowden sustiined,
A NEW SOLUTION.
A\owriter in the Evening Maal sets forth a new sofition of the
Negro problem. Ths plan, to himself, is very simple, [fe claims
that the whole question “ean he solved at ong stroke by the compul-
sory enlistment of every able-hodied 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 ntllion men .
‘The writer in The Mail pays a tine tribuze te the loyalty: and
tahung record of colored mei in all the wars of the United States,
but he feels that all te officers af his million-men army should he
white. He figures his ‘plan out im deta: for example, he shows
that Uns army could be maintained at very small cost. hecanse im
tes of peace it could be employed in straightening out the Missis-
sippi River, building dikes and levees, irrigating and reclaiming the
American desert, building railroads and working mines in’ Mask,
and on other such odd: jobs. “Then, when war came along, they
could be ase’ as breastworks, Not a bad plan. if the Negro himself
Ss not considered,
Yet. as ood a business deal as it would be to have A thiltion
aide bodied men engaged on the national public works at fifteen
dullars per month each, and ready to fight whenever needed, we are
sere that the propasitien will not appeal to the Vinerican people — In
the hist place, in spite of the Negro's superb losalty, it would he only
fatural ior the white people to hesitate about placing ther safety in
thedgads of a million armed men of a race which is treated as they
teal the Negra ‘Their own consciences would make them hesitate,
If the vriter in The Mail is most concerned about military pre-
paredness for this country. we say to him that no compulsory enlist-
‘ment 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 mogt 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.

New comes forward the Honorable Willie Tennnvss Bryan
Withy another grand idea hatehed ont in the inenharor which’ he
wedrean bixshoullers, =
_“"Tustead of spending hundreds’ of inillion dollars.to increase the
army and navy, he would have the Government take that money
and build twelve well paved roads running parallel fram the Atlantic
.v the Pacific, His idea is, in case we were attacked by an enemy;
che “citizen soldiers,"—that is, the farmers—could jump into thei
Fords and quickly mobilize “by tens of thousands” at any: point
chreatened 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 jnvading army of a great military power
could wish for nothing better than good roads upon which it ‘could
theet 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 olf a few
huge jokes.
A PLAIN LETTER t car coe-mereed on thee: dawlernescci
4M another column we reproduce
a letter which was written to Tne
Sun by a white Soithern man, It
is a reply to a letter written by th:
editor of the Augusta, (Ga.) /er-
ald-and printed’ in The Sun
few days ago. The editor of the
Heratn, in his letter, had gon-
demned’ the lyriching of Frayk.
but, at the same. time, he felt called
upon to write-a eulogy upon (vor-
gia culture, etc., ete,
This is the common weakness of
the most liberal-minded Southern-
ers; they do not dare to.make an
unmodified condemnation of the
faults of their section; a ruthless
public sentiment almost completely
muzzles them. The editot of The
elugusta Herald could not condemn
such an atrocious® crime: as the
lynching of Fraxk without paying
a_ glowing tribute t9 the virtues of
Georga and, Georgians: this, of
course, robs his condemnation of all
force.
The letter in reply, which we re-
produce, is signed by Evwis W.
AVALKER, who: states that he is a
Southerner with six generauons of
Southern ancestors. “and that he
lived in Augusta for ten years. So
there can be no doubt as the genv-
inegess of his commumieation. He
has' written some plain’ facts, and
we call our readers’ antention to
what he says
Tt 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. Waker, who
are willing and not afraid“to state
these facts. But Mr, Watker wrote
in New York. a fairly safe distance
from Augusta. We have the cnn-
\setion 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 South-
ern city, .*

nation have known the throes and agitations that have so often convolted the French. 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.

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-

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:

Chinese and Lincoln to Meet Again.
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.
