Police at Theatre
Superintendent of Police Robinson, who had previous knowledge of the intention of the Negroes to gather at the Forrest, was in personal command of the policemen. Fifty detectives were scattered along Broad street and inside the theatre.
As early as 8 o'clock a body of Negroes paraded up and down Broad street, from Lombard to Chestnut, but because they were orderly the police did not intereer. Shortly after 9 o'clock, however, their numbers were trebled at Lombard street and they returned to the theatre.
When the Negroes reached the theatre someone in the crowd threw a brick through the big plate glass window above the entrance. Shouts went up and fifty or Negroes rushed against the closed theatre doors. Lieutenant Myers of the 15th and Locust street police station, at the head of a detail of police, started at once to halt the marchers. Negroes who could not run fast enough to dodge clubs received them upon their heads.
Police Arrest Four.
In five minutes the streets were swept clear, but a revolver shot rang out in Juniper street. It was not leared whether a policeman or a rioter fired the weapon. In Walnut street two Negroes threw milk bottles at their pursuers.
The Negroes arrested are Arthur Lunn, 19 years old, 5747 Cherry street, who is alleged to have thrown the brick through the window, and who was held in $500 bail for a further hearing for inciting to root by Magistrate Beaton in the Night Court; Woodford Jackson, 1005 South 17th street; Joseph Davenport, 50 South 17th street, and Sydney Durrell 1513 Lombard street. All except Lunn were discharged for lack of evidence.
Among those who were sent to hospitals were the Rev. Dr. W. F. Graham, pastor of Holy Trinity Baptist Church, who is in Douglass Hospital with four wound-in scald; Dr. W. A. Sinclair, financial secretary of Douglass Hospital; Mrs James A. Howard, cateress, South 18th street and Lee F. Banks, 1913 North Taylor street, in the Hahnemann Hospital with severe lacerations. Three Negroes also were treated at the Jefferson Hospital. Others, it is said, went to great physicians or were cared for by friends.
It was learned that the demonstration by riot was planned by a committee of Negro men of various denominations who have held meetings in the last three weeks.

VETERAN BROOKLYN
POLITICIAN IS DEAD Joseph Washington Parker, familiarly known as *Wash.* Parker, of Brooklyn who gained considerable celebrity as one of the politicians of the old school, died at his home, 749 Marcy avenue, Monday afternoon, September 13, at 4 o'clock, in his 71st year of age. Mr. Parker held many positions of public trust. He entered upon his work thirty-six years ago as an employee of the fire department during his years as driver for the commissioner, Cornelius Van Cott. When the fire and building departments were separated, he entered the building department and had charge of the fire escape desk. He left
The Late JOSEPH WASHINGTON PARKER
this position to take up the duties of chief of the division of supplies of the Tenement House Department, which position he held until March 1, 1915, when he was retired by an act passed by the Board of Estimate and Apportionment.
Was a Native New Yorker
He was born in New York City on March 10, 1848, and attended North Moore street public school. He was married on October 9, 1858, to Miss Priscilla Thomas, of Tarrytown, a dauguer of Simeon and Saran Thomas, the ceremony being performed at St. Joseph's R. C. Church. He was well known in both Democratic and Republican circles; he was an active worker, and up to his death maintained an active interest in politics. He was at one time president of the Society of the Sons of New York. As commissioner of requiem was offered the position at his old St. Antoine R. C. Church, the celebrants being the Rev. Father John C. Burke, the Rev. Father Thomas O'Keefe and the Rev. Father Louis Blaber. The body was placed in a vault in St. Johns cemetery on September 17, where it will remain while a plot and monument is being made ready. Letters of sympathy were received by the family from Commissioner Murphy of the Tenement House Department and from many of the city employees and friends with whom he had been associated.
EDUCATIONAL ADVANCE
GREENBROOK, N.C., Sept. 21.—That the compulsory school attendance law now on the statute books of North Carolina is being enforced without fear or favor, irrespective of race or color, is shown by the following clipping from the Times, a leading daily of this State:
*Kinston, Sept. 17.*—Half a hundred parents of children of school as a result of violation of the compulsory education law, at the instance of Barron Caldwell, the superintendent of schools. A number of the people for whom warrants have been issued are white. Half a dozen Negroes were arraigned before Judge Wooten in police ocruit yesterday. State legislature of children between eight and twelve years of age to attend school four consecutive months in the year. Three of the defendants were women. Judge Wooten withheld judgment in all the cases until Monday. Complaint by Chae. Hazley, school censor, for violation of children is being withheld, by parents will probably lead to further prosecutions. Baghy declares that the number of Negro children in some districts has decreased amazingly since last year.
North Carolina is probably the only State in the South with a compulsory school attendance law, which is applying it to black as well as white.
This is also, the only State in the country with a colored man employed as inspector of all the colored schools in the State 'Prof. Chas. II, Moore, of Greenshore, national organizer of the National Negro Business League, is filling this position, and he reports that the State Board of Education is cooperating with him to the fullest extent, backing up his efforts with all the educational machinery of the State.
ATLANTA SAMPLE OF GEORGIA PEONAGE
ATLANTA, GA., Sept. 21. -Having been sent to the city chaining for thirty days, Matthew Cooper, a colored man, worked one day, and, not liking the employment, walked away.
"Cooper was caught and was tried in the police court Saturday afternoon on the charge of failing to abide the sentence of the court.
"Why did you run away?" the recorder asked him.
"I did not run away," was the reply
"I just walked away."
"Why?" he was asked.
"Well, I didn't like to work for noth-
n" he stated.
He was sentenced to another thirty
laws.
And such is Georgia peonage.

LONG ISLANDER SUED
FOR DISCRIMINATION
Special to THE NEW YORK ACE
HUNTINGTON, L. L, N. Y, Sept. 22—Cornelius Bethelman, proprietor of a restaurant on New York avenue, will have to defend in the Supreme Court of Suffolk county four suits for damages in the sum of $000 each, for refusing service to Negroes. The suits are made by the Rev. William H. Williams, pastor of the Bethel A. M. E. Churc, G. Raymond Squares, a deacon of that churc; Henry Brewer, a local preacher, and James Smith. It is reported that two other similar actions are in course of preparation, the parties concerned being from Centerport and Nortnport.
The fact that business men in Huntington were inclined to discriminate against Negro patronage was brought out by Mr. Squires, who stated that deliberate insults were tendered Negro patronals in various places, in one place a drinking glass being smashed in front of the colored customer, after the man had been given food. The suits filed against Bethlemen are for the purpose of securing civil rights and to put a stop to race discrimination in this village.
Opposed to Discrimination
There is a strong sentiment among the most prominent white citizens against race discrimination, and many or them have expressed themselves on the subject. Interviews with the Rev. Charles S. Gray, pastor of the Huntington Methodist Episcopal Church; the Rev J. Jeffrey Johnstone, pastor of the First Presbyterian Church; the Rev. Charles E. Cragg, rector of St. John's Episcopal Church; Hiram A. Baylis, editor of the Long Island, and other leading men, developed a strong sentiment against the action of Bethlemen and others who would practice discrimination.
Statements made by these men to the Brooklyn Enagle were as follows:
The Rev. Charles S. Gray, pastor of the Huntington Methodist Episcopal Church—It seems to me that the case, from a business standpoint, is a little different from any other. I would not object to a colored man old to table as a colored man. I thought he was a decent sort of a man, for instance, the Rev. Mr. Williams, Whether

HAITIEN MARRIES A
VIRGINIA WHITE GIRL
Special to The New York Air
BALTIMORE, M.D. Sept. 22—Maryland's law against the marrying of menos of Negro and Caucasian descent evidently does not apply to foreigners. This is evidenced by the fact that Maurice Menos, son of Solon Menos, a black man, the Haitien minister to the United States, was married in Baltimore to Miss Lillian Burgess, of Culpepper, Va., but recently attending a business college in Washington, where she met young Menos. Menos is 26 years old, and is secretary of the Haitien legation, going to Washington a year ago from Paris, where he held a minor post. The marriage was performed Friday, September 17, by the Rev. I. M. Wallace, pastor of the Aisquith Street Presbyterian Church, an influential white minister. Mrs. Apied, an aunt, and Mrs. Joseph Janis, a sister, accompanied Miss Burgess from Washington to Baltimore and witnessed the ceremony., Luncheon was had at the Belvedere, the leading hotel in the exclusive residential district, after which young Menos and his bride left for New York. The Haitien Minister was not aware of his son's intention, and had not heard of the ceremony until questioned by reporters.
the catering to the colored race would destroy a man's business is a different question, but I am in sympathy with the colored race in that they should have all their rights." He Johnatone, pastor of the First Presbyterian Church—I have always been strongly in favor of treating the colored people with all the fairness that they have a right, to as citizens of the United States, and it has always seemed to me stupid to treat them as if they were allens and worse. It is a country, that sentiment against them should as far as possible be removed."
Hiram A. Bayla, editor of the Long Islander—"I have always been affiliated with Negroca, and I believe in treating him fair. As to the business proposal, I would be willing to at least have some kind of place arranged where he can serve the colored people." The Rev. Charles E. Cragg, rector, Sir Stan's Episcopal Church—"Every man he has to love is conducive to the interests of his business, but I cannot help thinking that Mr. teichlemen is mistaken in his estimate of the feelings of his customers, and that his patrons would not object expectable and well-behaved colored men being served in his restaurant."
RETIRES-AFTER THIRTY
YEARS ARMY SERVICE
Special to The New York Acq.
SEATTLE, WASH. Sept. 21.—Only 45 years of age. William A. Vroemman, regimental quartermaster sergeant of the 9th cavalry, retired on September 12 after thirty years continuous service, with pay amounting to $67.50 per month. His entire service was with the Ninth. Vroemman enlisted in 1886 at Buffalo, N. Y., when only 16 years old. He served in the Indian campaign of 1890-1891, was at Santiago in the battle of San Juan Hill, and was in the Philippine campaign of 1900-02. He qualified in 1894 as distinguished marksman, the highest qualification in the army.
Sergent Vroemman received his retirement papers at Douglass, Ariz., where the Ninth is stationed, on September 12, and the next day he was escorted by the regimental band and a large number of his comrades when he took the train for Cheyenne, where he visited before coming on to Seattle. He will make his future home in this city.

THE DISTRICT ATTORNEY AND RACE PREJUDICE
District Attorney Charles Albert Perkins, who is a candidate for nomination or the office which we now holds by appointment by Governor Whitman, vigorously denies the charge made by Frank Moss in some of his recent campaign speeches, that he has discriminated against the colored race in the administration of his office.
When questioned about the matter by a representatives of THE ACE, Mr. Perkins said:
"I have great reluctance in refuting a charge which no man has a right to make against me and which is totally false. I am charged by Mr. Moss with being lacking in sympathy and friendship for any colored fellow-citizens, because a deputy assistant district attorney, who happened to be colored, canyance thus created was filled by the promotion of another deputy assistant, who happened to be white."
Am I to understand then that there
your office
ignoring, the colored race?
Neither Foe Nor Flatterer.
"Yes, that is the case. I have never, in or out of office, discriminated for or against a man because of his color. I have never, in or out of office, discriminated fellow-citizens, and I would not be either for any reward that could be offered me. From my youth up I have judged all men by their worth and not by their birth. That do you know, Moss's object in making his charge against you."
I cannot; imagine. For him to use the incident he has employed of just administration to stir up race antagonism is a degradation of legitimate political controversy and a direct insult to the intelligence of the colored people, this is what he is charlatan enough to seize upon the promotion of a white man to a post formerly occupied by a colored man to array one race against the other would most surely have made the same appeal to the white people's prejudice if I had promoted a colored man to a poor white man to cash in the white man. I am sure that no colored man will be deceived by this scordid appeal.
"It is my experience after a long record of service in the administration of criminal law, that the good men of both races are pretty close together and the bad men of both are not far apart in the courtroom with the most pleasant and helpful relations between both, but I have never thought it necessary to seek to array the two against the other that I might attain popularity or office for myself. When I am elected, as I surely will be, I will continue to deal fairly by the law, and I will not oblige or distrain and without exception." Mr. Perrine said further that he believed in an absolutely square deal for all.
MORE ABOUT HAITIS
AMERICAN OCCUPATION
Miss Theodora Holly, Port-au-Prince, Haiti, sub-preceptress of schools and vice president of the local association of teachers, in the following letter concludes her statement concerning the recent occupation of Haytien territory by American troops. The first letter was published in the Age of September 16. Miss Holly makes a strong argument for the Haytien people and criticizes severely the alleged actions of some of the American troops.
To the Women of the Negro Race Throughout the United States of America:
This country has need of missionaries, true courageous and devoted. The more of the women that have come here so far have descended to the level of the political and mercenary agitators, instead of trying to raise the people to a higher standard of civic morality and obedience.
Haiti has had to work out her own mission, and those who were longer than aided by those whose very profession and mission called them to point her to higher things. In spite of them, a slower teacher, bitter Experience, has been at work enlightening her judgment and forming in her a national conscience that that the individual consciences that go to the forming of the great national organ.
To the American forces, had they token and kept a friendly attitude, would have been appreciated and welcomed for the security it gave, just as any reasonable-minded parent would feel grateful to the passing stranger for disarming an unruly and passionate man with blood all over him blindly multitasking all comrades within his reach.
Gen. Sam's Execution.
The execution of General V G Sam was no worse a crime than those committed almost daily by the American mob, and without the provocation that in the execution of the Haitian President, it is more than probable, that the reported to have ordered the massacre of the prisoners—over two hundred in number, that, owing to the anarchy of the prison, over two hundred bloody corpses had to be borne, recovered, to their different homes, and hastily prepared for immediate burial; that there was hardly a block that had not its victim in the lot—one can hardly imagine a block being disgionation the relatives and the friends of the victims were worked up.
It is more than probable than the sanguinary propensity which dictated the wholesale butchery of the prisoners, and all the other similar instances in the history of this nation is but a hail of the notorious impiops with ancestry. The theory is more than tenable. Some one has said that self criticism is a sign of progress. It is remarkable that a strong tone of national self-criticism has coincided with the centennial of our existence as a beacon, as if the bane of the cursed itself through the four well-nigh spent generations, we had reached at last a turning-point and were about to begin to be our normal selves.

ALBANY, GA., Sept. 21.—Forced by lack of means, to leave school when only fourteen years of age, to take a job as cabin boy on government-survey boat improving Flint river, which job carried wages of $15 per month, ten years later Barton Franklin' Powell was superintendent of the river improvement work as successor to the man who had given him employment as a cabin boy. Holding this position for twenty-four years, saving and investing his money in farming and timber lands, Powell today owns 10,000 acres of land in Baker and

Kaising 500 to 1,000 bales of cotton yearly is only a part of the results achieved by Powell, for he also raises large quantities of grain and cereals, runs a well-equipped gunnery, buying about as much as he raises, is a large cotton buyer, providing a home market for the tenants and small farmers of the community, buys and sells cotton seed, buys and refills all, Powell owns and runs a syrup refinery serving Georgia Cane Syrup, for which he has created so great a demand that his shipments are made to points in all the territory from Maine to California.
$35,000 for Last Year's Cotton.
Outgoing and incoming shipments by water are handled at Powell's Landing, a private dock on Powell's land, where the Flint river steamers tie up. Ninety families have homes on the plantation, and with an average of five to a family there are 450 people on Powell's land. F. B. Priestly, Powell's nephew, the oldest son of his youngest sister, is chief overseer of the plantation's activities. A recent transaction involved the sales of 865 hales of cotton held over from the 1914 crop. This cotton brought 8 cents a pound, the total sum received being more than $35,000. Powell's mother died when he was three years old and when he was ten years old his father died. Four children, two boys and two girls, were left without resources and without a guardian, but all grew to manhood and womanhood, marrying and raising families. Barton's only brother, W. B., died December, 1914, in San Francisco. Cal. The youngest sister, Mrs. F. B. Priestly, a widow with four children, makes her home with Barton. It is her oldest son who serves his uncle as chief overseer. Mr. Powell was married in 1890 to W. B. or Albany, and of eight children born to that union seven are living, five boys and two girls. That the women might have the advantages offered by the city schools Mr. Powell acquired a handsome residence in Albany, and Mrs. Powell and the children occupy this home during the term. Mr. Powell is now 49 years old and a conservative estimate of his wealth puts it at about $300,000.
AMERICAN OCCUPATION
(continued from page one)
from the former, the second would have
aparts, perhaps to absorb elements de-
signed to retard her normal evolution!
Did not Amerloa owe it to herself to
be a grand and generous alter to the
little Haltten republic? Did she not
owe it to herself to lend; as circum-
taining and protecting hand instead of bullying and
brow-heating the feeble nation?
For however she may choose to ignore it officially, nothing will ever wipe out the historical fact that, while yet in the fetters of slavery, a battalion, nine hundred strong, went forth from the ranks of this people and gave in to the conquest of American Independence. If America required further incentive to magnanimity could she not recall the conduct of the blacks during the war of secession? During the great civil war when the legions of the South marched against the Northern heroes, the former had no alternative but to give up the war and their wives and daughters and helpless infants to the care of the very people, whose social, economic and political degradation they went forth to consolidate, at the cost of their very life-blood. And that martyr-race, as debonair and, guildless as the Great Martyr of the Middle Ages, was against their every personal interest, proved faithful to the strange and sacred trust.
For all these reasons, Haitti can not conceive of the powerful American Republic disarming a child-nation, binding its feeble limbs, then, at the point of its defeat, her fortune and her obedience, and calling it friendliness and philanthropy. Call it injustice, call it oppression, call it despotism, call it piracy even, but do not call it friendliness, nor term it warfare. The American avoid Japan and Germany, only to demonstrate her strength on the little African pygmy of the Antilles?
No, that cannot be! Haitti refuses to believe that the American people can knowingly surrender such a deed, or likewise, to the government, there must be, within her burdens, souls able enough to feel that:
"He triumphs ingloriously who
vanquishes without peril."
Therefore, I send you this appeal, hoping that because of our common origin and destiny, you will endeavor to present the true situation before the public mind, lest the American Eagle forever stain its fair remown, with such a shameful victory.'

WRITES: LAST MESSAGE
(not to the New York Are
PHILADELPHIA, PA. Sept. 22—Unable to talk, with his jaws locked from tetanus, as he lay dying in the Homeopathic hospital, Elmer Scott, 14, of 5622 Sunihner street, could only give his dying message to parents and friends by means of a few scrawly words, painfully and laboriously written by him a few moments before he died.
He stepped on a nail recently and when tetanus developed two weeks ago he was taken to the hospital. Dr. Anthony Esposito, chief, resident surgeon, administered antitetanus serum, 36,000 units being injected. He made a temporary rally, but the tetanus was too far advanced.
WANT PUPILS OUSTED FROM WHITE SCHOOL
Special to THE NEW YORK ACK.
HUNTINGTON, W. VA., Sept. 21.—Although the three children of Mr. and Mrs. Russell Terry have attended the same school with white children for the past three years, an effort is being made by H. L. Wright to have them barred and sent to the school for colored children, on the ground that he has proof of Negro blood in their veins.
The board of education, after investigation, declared it was unable to determine that the children had Negro blood in their veins and refused to act. Wright declares he will take the matter to the courts.
The state constitution prohibits mixed schools and a test case instituted by a Negro attorney in the Eastern Panhandle of West Virginia several years ago was dismissed by Judge E. Boyd rankner, who said that under the constitution on the board of education had no power to do otherwise than to provide separate schools.

STRAIGHTEN YOUR HAIR
Not into hot irons. But do it with (Kink no more) the greatest hair straightening preparation on earth. Kink no more will straighten the kinkiest kind of hair. Think about it—a preparation that all you have to do is to apply it on the hair and with a little combing the hair becomes straight, not to stay for one day or one week, but to last from six to eight months. But not nothing will make Kink again after it has been straightened. Kink no more is a wonder worker. So marvelously does it its work that one can apply it any way it works like magic, and is unique because there is not another preparation in the world like it. We offer a reward of $100 for any head of hair the Kink no more will not straighten.
Kink-no-more is a vegetable compound, it is perfectly harmless and will not injure the skin, positively removes dandruff; promotes a luxurious growth of healthy hair and keeps it under the skin; remember that Kink-no-more is sold under its own brand name that is claimed for it or money refunded. We will send to anyone on the receipt of 11.00 a straighten from one to two heads of hair. When ordering send registered letter, postal money order or express money order. Liberal government offers special terms. Enclose 2 cent stamp to reply. Agents wanted everywhere.

RECOGNITION OF HAYTI.
There still remains the adoption of the proposed treaty by both the Haitian and American Senates. It is expected that the treaty will be put through the Haitian body promptly, but there is likelihood that it will encounter opposition in our Senate. However, if the new relations between the two countries are established and working by the time Congress convenes, opposition will amount to no more than it did in the case of the similar treaty with Santo Domingo.
Despatches from time to time report skirmishes between Haitian soldiers and the American forces, but we are inclined to think these reports are more serious in the newspapers than they are in reality. All sensible Haitians must know and realize that physical resistance to American intervention is worse than futile; it is therefore their duty to discourage all spirit of physical revolt, and, by common sense and wise patriotism, to secure all of the advantages for their country which are involved within its new relationship with this country.
And so we repeat that in sending American administrative officers or members of a commission to Haiti this Government should make it a point to send only men who feel that they can deal with Haitians without considering their color; and we add that it would be fair and wise to give American Negroes of the proper standing and qualifications, a liberal representation among such officers or commissioners as may be sent.
100 COLORED POLICE
It is gratifying to see that we have another colored policeman on the force. This shows conclusively that if colored men have the proper qualifications they will not be denied appointment.
Then why have we not more men on the force? The answer is plain, colored men are not preparing themselves and taking the tests.
A large number of our young giants should find out what the requirements are, and should set themselves to the task of meeting these requirements.
We need and we ought to have, at least 100 colored men on the police force in this city. Not only are we entitled to, at least, that much of a participation in what is spent on the police force, but we are also entitled to the prestige which that number of uniformed officers would give to us as citizens. The sight of 100 fine specimens of colored men on the police force of this city would go about as far toward raising us above our present insignificant status as anything we could suggest.
Wake up, young men! Here is a chance for an honorable and well paid career. The requirements are not difficult. If you have a strong, healthy body, you have three-fourths of what is needed.. Find out what you must study and learn and do; then go ahead.
Let us see if we can't get 25, then 50, then 100 colored men on the police force.
"THE POOR WHITE MUSICIAN."
Perhaps nothing should astonish us during these days of war, when the world seems to be up side down; but the following letter written to The Globe is in a tone so unusual and unexpected that we reproduce it in full:
Editor of The Globe, Sir—Why does society prefer the Negro musician? is a question which is not infrequently discussed by white musicians; yes, I dare say, by artists. The Negro musician is to-day engaged at most of the functions given by society, especially its dances. Why this preference should be given to the Negro "so-called" musician, who hasn't the slightest conception of music, rather than to the Caucasian musician, who has spent well nigh a fortune—aside from numerous years of painstaking study—is incomprehensible.
Surely it isn't because of the oft-refuted contention that ragtime music demands the Negro musician, for the white musician has proven time and again that he can render a ragtime selection better than the Negro. Why should a famous dancing couple prefer a Negro orchestra for their dancing exhibitions? Even the New York hotels are now beginning to discard the white musician for the Negro. It will not be long before the poor white musician will be obliged to blacken his face to make a livelihood or starve.
EUGENE DE BUERIS.
New York, September 8.
Was a more pitiful wail ever uttered? And is it not difficult to grasp that fact that it is a white man and not a Negro who is uttering the wail?
The writer is evidently a New York musician, and he cannot understand why the Negro musicians of this city are making competition so strong for their white professional brothers. Some persons not acquainted with the facts might jump to the conclusion that the colored men work cheaper than the whites, but it is certain that Mr. De Bueris would have been glad to make that charge in his letter, if such were the case.
On this point let us relate an amusing incident which happened a few days ago. A society lady called up on the telephone a man who makes a business of supplying musicians, and asked the price for a band of ten men. The man she called up is a colored man and supplies colored musicians, but as his office is on Broadway, such a thought seems not to have been anywhere near the lady's mind. He told her what ten men would cost for an evening. She was amazed and said to him, "Why I can get colored musicians for that price!"
The fact is, colored musicians charge more than white musicians; so we can see that after all there is some excuse for the wilderment of Mr. De Bueris. Let us see if we can't enlighten him a bit.
When he refers to the colored players as "so-called musicians" he may think he is slurring them, but, instead, he is slurring the white society people, and hotel and cafe proprietors who prefer Negro musicians. But Mr. De Beuris is all wrong in belittleing the musical ability of these men. They may not have spent "as many fortunes or as many years of painstaking study" as the white musicians, but what has that to do with natural musical ability? Nothing. It only goes to show that white men need to spend fortunes and years of study in order to play music as well, or almost as well, as Negroes do naturally. Let Mr. De Beuris think of what would happen to the white musicians if the colored men spent fortunes and years in study, and let him be thankful.
There are good and sufficient reasons why Negro musicians are preferred at social affairs. Modern music and modern dancing are both Negro creations.
Since ragtime music has swept the world and become universally known as American music, there have been attempts to rob the Negro of the credit of originating it; but this is in accord with an old habit of the white race; as soon as anything is recognized as great, they set about to claim credit for it. In this manner they have attempted to rob the Negro of the credit of originating the plantation stories and songs. We all remember how after the Russo-Japanese war attempts were made to classify the Japanese as white. In the same way, scholars have "doubted" that the Zulus are real Negroes. Had Jack Johnson continued as champion, somebody would have tried to prove that he was not a real Negro. By this method, the white race has gathered to itself credit for originating nearly all the great and good things in the world. It has taken credit for what has been accomplished by the ancient Egyptians, the East Indians and the Arabs, by the simple process of declaring those black people to be white.
The truth is, the pure white race has not originated a single one of the great, fundamental intellectual achievements which have raised man in the scale of civilization.
The alphabet, the art of letters, of poetry, of music, of sculpture, of painting, of the drama, of architecture; numbers, the science of mathematics, of astronomy, of philosophy, of logic, of physics, of chemistry; the use of metals and the principles of mechanics were all invented or discovered by darker and, what are, in many cases, considered inferior, races. The pure white race did not originate even the religion it uses.
But all of this is another story; let us get back to the "poor white musician."
Not only is modern American music a Negro creation, but the modern dances are also. The dance steps which society debutantes are now learning and those which are the latest thing on the stage have been known among Negroes for years. Then it is only natural that when it comes to making music for modern dancing, the Negro musician should be the real thing.
In a way, Mr. De Beuris is right when he says that white musicians can play ragtime as well as Negro musicians; that is, white musicians can play exactly what is put down on the paper. But Negro musicians are able to put into the music something that can't be put on the paper; a certain abandon which seems to enter in the blood of the dancers; and that is the answer to Mr. De Beuris' question, that is the secret, that is why Negro musicians are preferred.
And let us add a word to the Negro musician upon efficiency in his work. He cannot afford to run along merely upon his great natural gift.
This letter written to The Globe shows that the white musicians feel his competition, and that means that they will stop at nothing to put him out of business. Let the Negro musician improve and develop himself. He may not be able to spend a fortune, but he can, by some slight sacrifices, put in his spare time on painstaking study. It is only in this way that he can continue to hold his own.
DOMESTIC EMPLOYMENT FOR NEGROES.
In last week's Age there was a short editorial on the case of Mrs. Nichols, the millionaire Fifth avenue widow, who was robbed and murdered in her home through the connivance of her foreign help. Comment was made upon the fact that such a thing was possible and is likely to occur at any time because the rich people of this and other large Northern cities employ in their households anarchists, nihilists and what nots from every corner of the world, while they overlook the American Negro, who is one with them in language, religion and in the general view of life; they take into their homes strangers whom they can never learn to know and in whom they can never confide, while they overlook a people who have the divine gift of creating bonds of affectionate sympathy
The Evening Sun of a day or two ago contained an editorial along the same lines. It is very seldom that The Sun is sympathetic with us in its editorial pages, so when it says anything good about us it must be so. The editorial is not a direct plea for higher opportunities for colored people, that is true; but it is a plea that colored people of this city, be given a wider field in which to earn an honest living.
We should like to see the entire New York press take up this subject and assist in opening up this field of profitable employment to the people who must deserve it.
Who will found a school in this city where colored domestics may get the benefit of the training, a school from which a certificate would vouch for character and efficiency?
Such a school would be a double benefit. It would help to secure honest and profitable employment for a large number of colored people in this city, and it would provide employers with domestics who would relive them of all fear of ever being betrayed and murdered in their own homes.
ROWDYISM
There is a growing tendency toward rowdyism among a number of half-grown boys in Harlem. This spirit of rowdyism was given vent to last week in the breaking up of straw hats on the streets. As a result there were several serious fights and a good many arrests.
Now, the breaking up of straw hats on the 15th of September by stock brokers on the floor of the Stock Exchange, or by boys at college, may, by great leniency, be regarded as fun; but when boys or young men go out on the streets to break the hats of passers by, it is nothing less than rowdyism.
Of course, young white men do the same thing in other sections of the city; well, that is rowdyism also. But young white men who are rowdies hurt only themselves, while colored young men who are rowdies hurt every member of the Negro race.
Every colored man and woman in Harlem should take a stand against rowdyism and discourage it in every way possible. We don't want Harlem to become known as a bad section simply because fifty or a hundred colored men and boys think that to be "tough" is something smart.
If we could reach these youngsters who are bent on making a bad-name for the race in Harlem, we would advise them to leave "being tough" to the gangsters and gunmen of the white race. There are too many good things in which we should emulate the other race. Before the thing goes too far, let the colored citizens take a firm stand against all forms of ruffianism and rowdyism. We don't want Harlem to become known as any "Bad Lands."
THE REPUBLICAN TICKET
The Republicans of New York have submitted to the voters a ticket of high class men, men who have been tested and not found wanting. The colored Republicans can have no hesitancy in giving them their support in the primaries which are to be held on Tuesday, September 28, from 3 to 10 o'clock p.m. It is important that a large vote be polled. No candidate should be voted for who will not be governed by the dictates of the party, or who gives indications that he will bolt the party's ticket.
We are on the eve of a presidential campaign; the strength shown by candidates in the present primaries will have tremendous effect on the coming presidential election. The strength shown by the candidates now will mean strength to the party in the coming national contest; any weakness shown by them will be a weakening to the party's strength in the big elections next fall. Let the colored Republicans pile up as large a vote in the present primaries and elections as possible.

WHAT THE PEOPLE SAY
WHAT THE PEOPLE SAY
A. M. E. Church Conditions in Georgia
To the Editor of ARG:
To the Editor of the public know how Morris Brown University is being disgraced. The president, W. A. Fountain, who holds his membership in the Macon conference, although the school is in the boundary of the Atlanta conference, is busy trying to dictate who shall lead the Georgia delegation. He has been instructed that the transfer has not been announced; he has arrayed the mission men against the presiding elders. There is a feeling in Georgia to leave the presiding elders at home, and yet this same class of men want to be presiding elders. This president is trying to make the mission men believe that the George Fountain school shows the church what kind of a man is seeking its suffrage.
It is whispered around that the president's wife is seeking to be elected president of the Atlanta conference. W.H. & F. M. Society and the institute is a member of Wacon conference. When the writer was transferred from the Atlanta conference, his wife could not hold the office of president. They were ordered to have a called meeting and declare the office vacant and proceed to elect the president, who will harmonize this, we will all see. Out of all of the presidents we have had, this one takes the rag off of the bush. He has more gall than all of them. He means to dictate all of the laws he wants to enact at the school until Friday, then come to the conference and make his educational speech, then returning.
to his job, he will be there at the organization of the conference. He and the dean will be out of the school seven weeks just when they should be on the job laying a foundation for a good year's work. They are teaching the theological students not to respect the presiding elders; this is what the school is turning out to. The dean is out the field are held and discussed before the students. You see what the president is bringing us to. In his last report to the trustee board he labored hard to bring us $45. I made him do that. And yet he is our.ishop's choice for episcopal honors. But the church has been looking at his choice from Arkansas. We don't think he is a good judge of men, so the church better look at him. This trip going to bend heaven and earth to put this president down your threats at Philadelphia.
Our good bishop was called upon to preach the funeral of one of his men the other day. Such objectionable organization had been dead man until the congregation became disgusted. Everywhere he goes to visit district conferences and Sabbath School conventions, he gots up and brands the preachers as lars, and the bishop is heard of a bishop using such language before? The city of Atlanta is up in arms; they say the chief of police has been lynched. That is just what the writer claims has been done to him, and been lynched to please the president.
But we will have some more important funerals in Georgia before we go to Philadelphia. Things are in bad shape in Georgia. There is a lot of unrest in the trenches. We haven't any presiding elders. The Bishop hasn't appointed an assistant without the presiding elders' advice. The men are afraid of their jobs and they won't call his hands. He has a nice fuss on hand now at Big Bethel, Atlanta. He will understand it better at Thomason. He has a nice case at Columbus, Ga. He is afraid to rock the baby; if he does St. James will miss him. He will not be the man power will ruin the Christian church. We want the next General Conference to give us a man who will consult his cabinet and some of this trouble will be averted. We will keep up this light until May. Some one must die to have things put right in the mace E. E Church. Down with lych aphid. Down with lych aphid. Give men what they merit, and not, give them likeness them or not.
The Rev. F. R. Sims and his two boys, all of whom came from two other denominations, are trying to make the bishop believe that he (the bishop) is being imposed on by the men with whom he lives, all of whom are also men who have made the church in the state what it is. This is their method to stand in with the powers that be, but they were never so badly deceived in their lives.
The collections of Morris Brown University have fallen off 35 per cent in the eight months and the people are to be below 60 per cent this fall and next spring. The bishop can't make a speech, preach a sermon or have an extended talk, if he doesn't discuss the papers and abuse the preachers. I am told by the Parker News Stand and the places he lives in the New York Age in Atlanta, that then he would come to them by night and offered 25 cents for a copy.
W. A. Fountain is largely responsible for the wretched condition of things in Georgia. The preachers are determined to destroy him at all cost, Fimper or no Flipper. Our preachers and membership feel grateful to you for keeping to the four winds of the earth, once or two boss rule in Georgia. Keep your eye on the things in the state for the next eighteen months.
To the Editor of The Age:
Sometime ago, you published a letter over the signature of the writer with a headline—"Stop Knocking Each Other." I was prompted to write my thoughts on that subject because of the way on part of the Negro more than on part of nationality. I note in the columns of the Boston Guardian of August 21, an indirect attack upon Dr. Booker, 'T Washington as president of the Negro business League, in that the indirect attack on Negro business, to bring of themselves and make protense that southern whites are not prejudiced against them.
AN UNMERITED SLUR.
is a business man. The student named Mr. Berry O'Kelley of Method, N.C. as a sample. Method, N.C. is a small railroad station not over three miles from this city, and is regarded as a arbor of this city. Mr. O'Kelley is the leading merchant in this village, also the postmaster and express agent. I am personally acquainted with Mr. Berry O'Kelley; his possesses more than an excellent school education and an excellent study of single entry bookkeeper, a good reader and a splendid penman. I make note of these facts to offset the slur cast at him by the Guardian.
As illiterates, Mr. Berry 'O'Kelley and the writer, are strong believers in Dr. Washington's theory as an uplift for the environment, and are willing followers where he leads. We are native to the southland. We know the environments which surround us. We know that we are not numerically to adjuably our impediments.
I am pleased to note that Mr. O'Kelley is a very successful man. It is estimated that he is worth fully $150,000 in real estate and personal property. He is well liked by his own people and is respected by the white people in much of the country. Do my mother Mr. O'Kelley is an exception to the average Negro who rises rapidly in business in the South. He is very discreet, unassuming and generous to the poor. No worthy applicant is turned away. He is public spirited and fosters the building of schoolhouses and churches. In short, Mr. O'Kelley is a Christian gentleman. T. L. McCOY. Raleigh, N. C.
In reading Mr. Johnson's editorial last week, replying to Tom Warson as to who is responsible for the mulattos, I must say that I would like to give him a good hand like on our own white man, but more of a brute than the black man is to-day. I wish every Negro woman could feel like I do in this matter. I only hope and pray that Mr. Johnson will bring the same good with his pen that Lincoln did.

SPARROWS IN THE STREET.
O little folk, I know, I know;
I've watched you in the sunset's glow,
I've watched you in the morning's shine.
And made your thoughts a part of mine.
What better. thing 'in all this life;
Where joy is dimmed by pain and strife;
But just to soar on feathered wing,
To think your songs and then to sing
What matters if few mortals know;
That thoughts outrun your chirping so,
You bring your notes from out your heart,
And know you only sing a part.
By fluttering in the dust you seek
Philosophy, to keep you meek.
To hold you down to things on earth.
Yet songs of soul must find a birth.
Away you fly—like arrow sent;
From bow by master marksmans bent.
To find a caulm where song is free;
Of little folk I see; I see.
By circumstance, I roll in dust;
But she saw me before me.
With Him, the friend of you and me,
And know His loving eyes will see.
How all my strength like yours is spent,
Some image of my soul to vent,
Misunderstanding; let men scorn;
HE wills our song it must be born.

THE CITY OF WASHINGTON
BY Clerk R. M. MILNE
Washington, D.C.
It is a positive fact that in the berry chase of life, it is difficult to bear one's poison and let one's misfortune be known. It is equally difficult to perish in quick power and fast time. It is almost impossible to be tranquil, equable and patient, allowing no arny passion to arise. We are quick and alert. We are quick and quick, jumping at conclusions and very often, when the need. But have we ever stopped to consider that "Man is the instrument of the greatest good that God has given us, and that is the life? We are each a bundle of tools and must know how and when to use them. It is, 'He that is able to anger is better than the miracle, and he that ruleth his spleter than he that spleter."
If this be true, there’s a victory in life to be gained, and a sovereign away from the tyranny of ourselves. Some may say, how can we master ourselves? First, know the carpenter and creator that the world affords. The most beautiful houses are those built without hands, and those built firm and unmovable.
Angoc a Great Waste.
(1. ye noble friends! Anger, is one of the greatest wastes in the world. To-day humanity is facing one of the greatest dances: calamities caused by thinking on a plains of war, which will destroy the mansion of humanity; ambitions thoughts will destroy in a moment. If we are creators of the finer qualities, let us not pull down our own buildings. Why not man, build up one of the greatest wastes in the world. Amidst the nature of humanity and see the evil exhausting and consuming emotion, anger, sweep over the universe, eating on healthy health and happiness, that percentage of the world's energies can be spent in repairing damages caused by anger. One wave of anger will demolish and beautify. It will steal away the matrimonial, parental, friendly and national bonds and set them shar, leaving a pall of uncertainty over the universities of civilization. Self-control, self-love, self-knowledge. We can reach perfect human adjustment without anger. For the grounds of anger are so vast, that years to build up the ruins caused by the ravages of anger.
A 'Primitive Emotion'
A man living for noble ideals and who is thinking on the plane of peace and superstructure of the human world, must control this primitive emotion belonging to the tiger and the ape. It means understanding our anger, our something to restrain it. When life is over-depreining, stand up with the determination to be masterful. It means to master the hand by a passion more innocent than yourself. It is true that even the best of us allow this awful destructive passion to crouch at the bottom of our life out of us, until we suffer total collapse, so to speak. But pause and think what is totally great harm anger does. It is totally great harm anger does. Build for yourselves houses of precious thoughts, truthful gaying, noble thoughts, great love, greater adjust conditions. Then as we behold each other in interests of personal welfare, our thoughts of peace and superstructure of the human world, that the seer monster anger will steal below the level of the earth. He will feel that he is too poisonous, too powerful, too destructive, so that the after of peace and destroy it.
You will find how wonderfully easy you will conquer the storms of life, you will conquer the storms of life, your fits of anger. Upon your countenance there will be no hideous, insecure being will be in a healthy condition, with every human function in healthy action. Then our tempers will mean that what fresh air means to the bodies.
