NEGRO TROOPS FOR N.Y.N.G.
Recruiting for Regiment of Negro Soldiers in the State Militia.
Details Col. Wm. Hayward of Public Service Commission and Capt. Spencer, Military Secretary, to Form Regiment.
LIEUT. TANDY DESIGNATED
Was the First Colored Man to Qualify for a Commission and He Has Been Designated as First Lieutenant to Command the First Provisional Company-Recruiting Brisk at 2241 7th Avenue.
It is a certain now that the colored men of New York State will be given an opportunity to serve as a body in the military service of the State. The organization of a regiment to be recruited among colored men was authorized by the State legislature some time ago, but various causes have prevented its examination. But now Governor Winman has detailed Colonel William Hayward, of the New York National Guard, and a member, of the Public Service Commission, to the duty of recruiting and organizing the regiment.
New work in recruiting was started on Monday night of this week. V. W. Taw, the well-known architect, having successfully passed examination, has been designated, the first lieutenant and assigned to duty as provisional commander of the First company of the treatment Lieutenant Tandy as at present in charge of the recruiting headquarters which have been opened at 242 South Avenue, corner 18 street in the Latitude Theatre building. He is being assisted by Private Roy Morse, detailed from the 8th Coast Artillery, N. Y. N. G., and by other members of the First company who have already been uniformed and assigned to duty by Colonel Hayward.
This will be the first regiment of Negro troops ever connected with the National Guard of the State. All of the Negro soldiers from New York who served during the Civil War were attached to various commands of the regular army simply as volunteers and not as a State organization from New York. That the regiment will soon be recruited to full strength and ready to be sworn into State and Federal service is indicated by the fact that although the recruiting station on Seventh avenue was not open until after 9 o'clock Tuesday night, more than fifty men were recruited who want to serve.
Commissions Open To All.
While Lieutenant Tandy is the only designated officer of the regiment at this time, it is understood that the men who offer for service will be given every opportunity to secure commissions in the regiment. It is positively stated that there will be no strings attached to any commissions, and there will be a recruiter shown. Officers will be commissioned from the companies first published according to efficiency and as shown by examination.
Captain Lorillard Spencer of the 8th Coast Artillery, Military Secretary to Captain Whitman, is assisting Colonel Hearn in the organization of the 8th General Leonard Wood of the United States Army and Major General Kane commander of the N.Y. Y. Army, approved the forming of the regiment. Mustered in under the command of the State, it is not pos-sible to say what will be the principal designation of the regiment is believed that it will be in the 15th regiment of infantry. The recruiting station will stay day and night from 10 to 11 p.m. and other stations used in other sections of the regiment recruiting officers are

HOWARD ORPHANGE
GRADUATION EXERCISES
(Special to THE NEW YORK ACM.)
KING'S PARK, L. I.-On Saturday,
June 24, the Howard Orphanage and
Industrial School held its annual graduation exercises and tied day with an
international day. The school
Annie E. Lange, William Huff, Walter
Matthews, John Smith and Chester
Willis.
The exercises were held in the open air, a small platform having been arranged with benches and chairs brought from the cottages. There was chorus singing by the children. Speeches were made by members of the graduating class, each child taking up some chosen activity of the school life, such as books, carpentry, blacksmithing and farming. Diplomas were awarded by President L. Hollingsworth Wood. Samuel Rowland, orator of the day, chose as his theme "Honesty," and dwelt not only on suprenial honesty, such as lying and stealing, but on the fundamental honesty of deception to country, friend and school. At the conclusion of his address Mr. Rowland presented each child and visitor with a small American flag. A picture of Mr. Rowland's mother, an early benefactress of Howard Orphanage, was displayed on the platform, decorated with a flag presented by Mr. Rowland some years ago. Seated on the platform with the speakers were Senator Burr, a neighboring landowner and former Srate Senator; Huram A. Bayliss, editor of the Long Islander; Frank H. Gilbert of Brooklyn, member of the Howard Advisory Board; Miss Sarah Nicoll Osborne, members of the Advisory Board; Dr. Louise Baxter and the following managers: Mrs. L. Hollingsworth Wood, William Frederick Trotman, the Rev. C. P. Cole, Lawrence Smith Butler and President Wood. Following Mr. Rowland's address E. A. Chishipel of the Robert Hungerford Normal and Industrial School of Latonville, Ela, made a short talk.
A dumbbell drill by the students was followed by an exciting three-legged race and then the baseball game between the St. James High School and the Orphanage steam, which was won by the Howard boys 9 to 6. The athletic program was under the direction of Lawrence Smith Butler and Sarah Nicoll Osborne.
After the exercises a general inspection of the farm and buildings revealed some splendid crops of corn and potatoes, while the new domestic science building, along with white paint and was made attractive by the handiwork of the students. Tempting jellies and salads and neat dresses and aprons testified to the skill of the teachers and their pupils.
At the meeting of the Board of Managers a report was made by President Wood, telling of the efforts made since January, 1 to raise a special fund @ $7,250 for fire escapes, installment on mortgage and expense of constructing a domestic science building. Members of the board were pleased to learn that all but $2,553 had been secured.
The superintendent's report was read by Mrs. Mary J. Gordon, who gave an interesting account of the happenings at the school during the month of May, including the experiences of the Boy Scouts' Brigade of the orphanage on the "hake" under Custodian F. A. Taylor, when they walked to Brooklyn and thence by car to Riverdale-on-the-Hudson, where they played Riverside boys at baseball, beating them 6 to 3, and returning a little footsore and tired but strong, and proud to the home at King's Park. The boys had been entertained over night at Chief Scout Wendall's at Harlem, and they camped out on the road, carrying their provisions and blankets. Dinner was served to the managers and invited guests in the dining room of the Administration Building at 10 o'clock.
CORRESPONDENTS!
All correspondents of THE NEW YORK, AGE are requested to take notice that the 4TH OF JULY falls on TUESDAY. Because of this they are requested to make a special effort to have their news letters for week of July 6 in THE AGE office on MONDAY, JULY 3RD.
ment was mustered back into the Nebraska National Guard, and he was made a major. After a year's service commanding a battalion Major Hayward was elected colonel of the 2d regiment, serving in that capacity for three years. He was then appointed adjutant general to the State, but declined to serve, as he had been elected county judge. He was then retired from active service, being placed on the Military Board and Reserve Militia with rank of colonel. He was made a member of the New York Militia Reserve with the rank of colonel, and now Governor Whitman has detailed him to organize the regiment of Negro soldiers which he will command.
Regimental Band to be Formed.
Plans are also being laid by Colonel Heyward and Captain Spencer to form a regimental band that will compare favorably with any in the National Guard. A number of the colored men who have been most active in the past in acquiring for a Negro regiment will align themselves with Colonel Hayward and Lieutenant Tandy. Among those who were received on Tuesday night were Lee A. Pollard, Lanning Wright, Peter Banks, who served with the 6th Virginia battalion during the Spanish-American war, and his son, Roy Miller and Edward Buchanan. The first company will be mustered in at a minimum strength of 65 men, but the full strength will be recruited. Nearly a sufficient number of men for the first company were enrolled the first night?
There is little doubt that the regiment will be recruited to full strength and equipped in time to see active service if present indications are borne out.

BELIEVES IN LAW ENFORCEMENT
Candidate for Nomination of U. S. Senator from New Jersey Answers Questions of Federation of Colored Organizations of New Jersey.
Newark, N. J.—The Hon. J. S. Frelinghuysen, who is one of the most formidable candidates in New Jersey for the nomination of United States Senator on the Republican ticket to succeed Senator Martine, a Democrat, has publicly announced his views on the Negro question. In answer to questions propounded by the Federation of Colored Organizations of New Jersey, a non-political body, Mr. Frelinghuysen comes out strongly against segregation, disfurts chisement and lynching, and the directness in which he has met the issues involved already has made him many friends.
Mr. Frelinghuysen's communication to the Federation of Colored Organizations of New Jersey follows:
J. S. FRELINGHUYSEN
Somerville, N. J.
Telephone 466.

Federation of Colored Organizations in New Jersey.
In reply to your kind favor under date of June 6, 1910, I beg to state that answering the nine questions submitted to me by you, I think I can best place myself before your organization in one general proposition, as follows:
I see no reason why any distinction should be drawn between not only members of your race but any other class of American citizens. Should I be elected to the United States Senate from New Jersey it would be a Republican. When in power the Republican party never has subjected colored Governmental employees to such indignities as you refer to in your first question, and I feel certain that with the return of the Republican party in power discriminations against any people because of race or color will cease. I shall take the trouble to answer specifically the third question submitted by you and that I think there is not so much need of a commission to investigate lynching, not any definite law upon the subject of lynchings, but rather that he law as it now stands upon the statute books of the United States should be strictly enforced by all persons being apprehended and punished in accordance with law.
I fully appreciate the fact that there are 100,000 colored citizens in the State of New Jersey of which about 40,000 exercise the right of trample. They have my sympathy in every proper movement for their advancement. They have a right to vote and to be voted for.
I cannot see why there should be any distinction for election to office of trust and enrolment if their fellow citizens share confidence in them to the extent of electing them to office and positions of responsibility and trust. As to me I view branchism as, I believe every man should have every right guaranteed to him and by virtue of the Constitution of the United States. I fully appreciate the effort made in the last session of the Legislature against motion pictures or theatricals which are for no other purpose than instigating race hatred. I agree with you, that no race gains by the advocating of such race prejudice, and like you, it cannot naturally hurt your race very long. I do not believe anything should be permitted that tends to create race hatred. My attitude toward Bordentown

BAN ON MIXED BOUTS
KILLED IN NEW YORK
(Special to The New York Age.)
ALBANY, N. Y.—The Boxing Commissioners of New York, with Chairman Fred C. Wenck presiding, unanimously decided in their meeting Wednesday morning, June 28, to remove the ban on mixed bouts in the State of New York, which rule was adopted to prevent Jack Johnson, champion heavyweight of the world, from fighting in this State.
This action was taken after the subject had been considered in all its phases and after months of contention on the part of opponents of the rule that it was not only unfair but unsportmanlike. Governor Whitman is largely responsible for this result as he called the meeting and was in favor of the action taken.
It will hardly open the way to the getting of Jess Willard into the ring with any of the Negro contenders for the title, as he has drawn the color line. Moran, who boxes Dillon in Brooklyn to tonight, is the only white heavyweight who has said he is willing to meet any of the boxers, regardless of their color.
HUGGINS' WORK AT
(Special to THE NEW YORK AQL)
Huntsville, Ala.-George E. Haynes, executive secretary of the National League on Urban Conditions Among Negroes, visited Huntsville, Ala., on June 2 and J. and general observations were made of an experiment in betterment work under the Leadership of Willis N. Huggs, formerly a teacher at A. and M. College, Normal Ala., whose enthusiasm and energetic voluntary effort was largely the occasion of the undertaking. During last November, December and January M. Huggs made a study of the Negro community and on the basis of what is found aroused the people in the churches. As a result the following experimental pieces of work were undertaken between February and June:
1. Weekly) men's meetings on Sunday afternoons, and weekly conferences with the ministers and a business meeting with the men most interested in developing a temporary organization.
2. Night's school two evenings of the week for employed men and boys.
3. Organization of the ministers one or two business men, and several women in a Welfare Committee.
4. The selection of Juvenile probation board of eleven Negroes appointed by the Mayor as an auxiliary of the Prosecution Board under the Alabama Juvenile Delinquent Law passed September, 1915. On this Juvenile Probation Board are eight ministers, three women, one physician, one business man, and two teachers—one the principal of the public school. Three boys are already turndown over to the supervision of this board since it was organized less than a month ago.
5. A boy's club with present enrollment of 123 is being drilled as boys' scouts and being organized into a baseball league.
6. During about three months, rooms in a convenience building were rented and a rest place for country women was provided as well as a meeting place for the activities named above.
Mr. Haynes attempted to find out the extent of community interest in the movement and talked with about a dozen different people, among them, the mayor of the city, three colored ministers, one colored physician, and one colored business man. The mayor said he thought that the white people of the community were so thoroughly interested in helping the Negroes that the movement started needlework from secrecy and other support from white people. Local newspapers have promised free space. The colored ministers said that their congratulations were behind the movement. From every person there came words of heart endorsement of what had been done and an expression of willingness to help with further plans.
So far, the work done has been very creditable in view of the limited resources. With better financial support so that Mr. Huggins could give his entire time, to the work there is every evidence to believe that a first-class movement which would help the entire Negro community would develop. Mrs Rosetta Huggins, the wife of the young man who has led this movement, is a woman of education and ability, who is willing to volunteer to lead the work for women and girls, which should get more attention than here before in any work which may be developed.
Plans for a year's work about its toilers are under consideration.
1. Rental of a house located conveniently to the Negro district. Such a house would give space, rooms, meetings, and such other present activities as required housing, as well as living rooms for Mrs and Mrs Huggins, who would plan to ride on the ground for the first year to give the work every attention and even chance to grow.
2. Development of weekly meetings for men and the boys club work which should be started.
3. Promotion of home visiting and sick nurse visiting by Mrs. Huggins.
4. Maintenance of a milk station and baby clinic, with hours for a physician and nurse for consultation.
5. Development of the work begun under the new Juvenile Probation Anxiliary Board.
6. Working out of some plan for recreation and amusement which would reach the girls, and continue the rest service for country women.
7. Attempt to get the night school work as a regular part of the public schools.
ROOSEVELT FORCES SUPPORT OF HUGHES
Progressive National Committee Endorses Republican Candidate for President.
NO HEAD TO BULL MOOSE TICKET
Parker of Louisiana, Nominee for Vice-President, Left Alone on Ticket—Hughes Senda Strong Telegram to the Committee, Giving His Views on Administration's Foreign Policy—To See Roosevelt.
By a vote of 32 to 6—nine not voting and three absent—the Progressive National Committee met in Chicago Monday and indorsed the candidacy of Charles Evans Hughes for President, following the adveys given in a letter from Theodore Roosevelt, which was read by Secretary Oscar K. Davis. The vacancy at the head of the Moose ticket caused by the declination of Colonel Roosevelt was not filled, and will not be filled. To clinch the matter, the committee, after committing its leaders to Hughes within any strings, directed the Executive Committee to ally itself with Mr. Hughes's campaign and do all its power to aid in his election.
The committee adjourned sine die and departed, leaving Colonel John M. Parker, of Louisiana, the candidate for Vice-President, to follow whatever course he thinks best. He is still on the Progressive ticket, but it has no head and will not have one. Whether he will resign or decide to go on and do what damage he can to Charles W. Fairbanks will be determined after he has returned to Louisiana and had time to think it over.
An effort to name Victor Murdock, of Kansas, for President, was overwhelmingly voted down.
Hughes to the Committee.
All doubts concerning Charles E. Hughes's attitude toward the two puzzles of his present campaign—the Hyphenates and Colonel Roosevelt—were swept away yesterday when the former justice of the Supreme Court, with his usual economy of words, expressed himself on both in a manner that left no opportunity for misaking his meaning.
Hyphenates, generally, and Germans who may have been responsible for criminal acts in America specifically were denounced in a telegram sent to O. K. Adams, chairman of the Progressive National Committee, in the evening. The telegram, whose purpose was to thank the Progressives for their endorsement of his candidacy by a vote of 32 to 0, contained a clear statement of his views upon the Administration's foreign policy. Responsibility for the killing of Americans in Mexico and the activity of foreign agents in this country he placed squarely upon the shoulders of President Wilson because of his ever changing diplomatic program.
Sends Thanks to Colonel.
To Colonel Roosevelt Mr. Hughes dispatched a letter, in which he not only praised the stand of the Progressive leader for an unalloyed Americanism but thanked him for his own support, and added that Mr. Hughes would be glad to have "all the aid that he felt able and willing to give him."
In his letter to Colonel Roosevelt Mr. Hughes thanked the Colonel for quickening the national spirit, and for his insistence upon immediate and thorough going preparedness, spiritual, military and economic. He said that later he would discuss with the former Bull Mouse leader the issues of the campaign—a campaign he was in, he said, because a broad constructive policy would have to be put into execution to restore the nation and revive the American spirit.
This letter to the Colonel closed with a wish to see him shortly. It is believed the two will meet at luncheon this week at the summer home of Mr. Hughes at Bridgehampton.
And when Mr. Hughes returns to Brussels冲pton it will be to prepare for his first speech of the campaign, which his friends regard as already won, now that there is a united Republican party. This address, which will be made in response to the grit notification on July 15, will deal with the issues of the campaign broaden, and from every angle.

HORRIBLE CONDITIONS
IN NOVA SCOTIA TOWN
Liverpool, Nova Scotia, has a population of about four to five thousand people, of whom about three hundred are colored. But according to a statement made by the Rev. William G. Richardson, pastor of the A. M. E. Mission at that place, conditions morally and religiously, as they affect the colored inhabitants, are deplorable.
In talking to an ACE representative, the Rev. Mr. Richardson said that the town of Liverpool is controlled politically by a faction that does not hesitate to either violate the civil and moral law or to wink at its violation by their chenchmen. Morally, he says, the town is awful. The leading men of the town are not too good to take advantage of the young colored girls, and he alleges that it is a common occurrence for young colored girls of 14 or 15 years to be seduced by leading white citizens. The mayor of the town has been appealed to, says Mr.-Richardson, on a number of occasions for assistance in bringing about a better moral tone, but he meets all such requests with a refusal, denying that such a condition exists.
Swindled Out of Property.
It is alleged that many of the colored people, most of whom are ignorant and illiterate, but owning their own property, are swindled through various sharp practices, out of their homes and property. He cited a number of instances in detail, telling how an old woman, 88 years of age, was kept in a cupboard under dark stairs for a period of five years, and deprived of the enjoyment of her home. A lawyer, and a Negro, too, it is alleged has secured several valuable pieces of property from ignorant colored clients, the Negro lawyer being one of the political factors in the town. It is declared that a daughter of this same man was responsible for the death of Counselor Johnson at Hailafax, one of the most brilliant and promising young attorneys of the race, who enjoyed a splendid practice in the province. A number of other cases were recited so show that property formerly owned by colored people are now in the hands of the white, and that without adequate remuneration having been received by the former owners. Among others, it is alleged that the property owned by the mayor himself was gotten by his father in some such way.
Rev. Richardson's Work.
The Rev. William G. Richardson is a British subject and has been in Liverpool about two years. He was sent there by the late Bishop H. M. Turner, with whom he became acquainted through his former work at St John's; Mr. Richardson was in the mission work in India prior to coming to North America.
He is now in New York for the purpose of securing financial help for the completion of his church at Liverpool. He reports that with a membership of 28, he has succeeded in raising the body of the church, a frame building on a stone foundation, and it is now ready for the root. There is a balance of $120 owed on the land, but all the material and labor on the building has been paid for save $3 owed for carpentry. About $500 is needed for the completion of the building and paying for the land. The Rev. J. W. Rankin, secretary of missions, has given Mr. Richardson credentials authorizing him to solicit funds for this purpose.
Contributions may be left at The Age office.
THREE COLLEGES GIVE
DEGREES TO MAL MOTON
Tuskegee Institute, Ala.—During the commencement spason just closing, Principal, R. M. Rotman, newly-installed head of Tuskegee Institute, has been the recipient of singularly conspicuous honors from three very prominent American institutions of learning. On Wednesday, May 31, the degree of Doctor of Laws (H.D.) was conferred upon him, in absentia, by Virginia Union University, Richmond, Va., on Wednesday, June 14, Oberlin College, Oberlin, Ohio, and on Thursday, June 15, Willeboro University, Willeboro, Ohio, paid him the same honor.
At Oberlin College the investment of Principal Moton with the Doctorate of Laws is described by a correspondent as an impressive ceremony. Tuskegee's principal appears to have been casually the most favored of the candidates for honorary degrees. Our correspondent states that no one was enraged as was he, the applause was deafening and prolonged. He spoke for seven minutes at the Minum Dinner and was received most enthusiastically.
It is doubtful if any Negro educator has ever before received in one year the degree of Doctor of Laws from three such important schools. Letters from friends, everywhere are being received by Principal Moton congratulating him upon these new and well-merited honors. Tuskegee Institute counts itself fortunate in being able to share with its principal this unique distinction.

HELD AS PRISONERS
The names of the Nrogers of the 10th Cavalry, reported to have been captured by Mexican troops and held prisoners at Chihuahua City, Mexico, are given by the Associated Press dispatches on Tuesday morning as follows:
Sergeant Felix Page, Ballston, Va.
Sergeant Allen Peterson, Meridian, Md.
Corporal Samuel McDonald, Coultnelle, Tenn.
Private Iq Ia L. Floyd, Oklahoma City, Okla.; Archie Jones, horssoer, Washington, Ga.; Charley Marshall, Lexington, Ky.; William Givens, Chattanooga, Tenn.; Will Harris, Atlanta, Ga.; Elsie Graham, K troop; Howland Patterison, no address; Jay D. Ward, Chattanooga, Tenn.; Jey Oli, Oliver, Brighton, Ala.; James Stokes, Atlanta, Ga.; William Stiles, Atlanta, Ga.; ander, Columbia, Tenn.
Other names given as among the prisoners are Private Harvey M. Lee, Kallipolis, Ohio; Ernest Leely, Huntington, W. Va.; John Wilson, George M. Chaplin, T. Hopkins, Thomas Garfield and W. D. Gibson. Advices on Tuesday indicate that of the eighty-four men comprising the command, twenty-three were killed; seventeen captured; one unaccounted for; forty-three, some of whom are wounded, are back in the American lines.
The valor and courage of the Négro American soldier was never shown to greater advantage than in the engagement at Carrizal, Mexico, last week between two troops of the 10th Cavalry, Troops C and K, against from 300 to 700 Mexicans; who not only attacked from ambush but were equipped with deadly machine guns as well. Troop C, under command of Captain Charles T. Boyd and Lieutenant Henry Vallar, and Troop K, under command of Captain Lewis Sydney Morey, the entire command numbing only 84 men, were amphibious by the Mexicans just outside the armored tree with a machine gun, the Mexicans literally cut the small detachment of Negro troops to pieces. The United States soldiers were in the open, and had to deploy into line of sarmshirts under the heavy machine fire of the enemy.
Notwithstanding the disadvantage under which they lauded, it is clearly apparent even from the meager mention given them by the various news agency dispatches that they fought gallantly though ineffectually, against heavy odds. As a matter of fact, the Negro troops have borne the brunt of the dangerous compassing since the were sent into Mexico, and yet has been said about them in the press dispatches than about the latest air salam among the white troops on the border.
Negro Officer With 10th.
Major Charles Young, the only Negro his officer in the arm, and a graduate of West Point, is in active command of his squadron of the 18th in Mexico, and yet however actively his troops may be engaged in the campaign, his name is seriously omitted, from the news stories.
In this Carrival engagement, Captain Bond and Lieutenant Mair were killed. Every effort was made by the brave boys of the 18th to save the lives of their others. Lieutenant Adair, after being shot, was supported by a servant of his company until he died. Captain Morey, badly wounded, was rescued, together with a wounded soldier, by three men of his command, and taken back to a water hole some 2000 yards in the rear of the battlefield. Here he wrote a report of the engagement and outstretched it to the three unwounded men, with orders to through to Gun Pershing's headquarters. A detachment of the 10th searching for the strangers of the command picked the three men. Later Captain Morey and the wounded soldier were rescued and it is from the statements made by Captain Morey that some idea is gotten of the desperate valer displayed by the Negro troops.
Captain Morey's Story.
The American Negro troopers faced almost certain death at Carrfall with
smiles on their lips, and they burst into song once or twice as they fought their grim fight against odds, is the story told by Captain, Lewis S. Morey, when he arrived at field headquarters. "For 45 minutes the men fought, joking among themselves all the while, even though they realized we had been trapped and had little chance of getting out alive," he said.
Captain Morey said he had never seen such valor as was displayed when Captain Charles T. Loyd led a handful of dismounted skirmishes through a chine gun fire and into the ambush of death. He said that it was not until the situation was exhausted that the troops were finally cut to pieces, and told of the heroic death of Lieutenant Henry R. Adair, of Portland, Ore, in an attempt to reenlist him.
Lieutenant Adair died fighting, his last words being, "On go, conquer," to a non-commissioned officer at his side, Captain Morey said. The two were on their way to the pack animals carrying the ammunition, when they were intercepted near a small irrigation ditch by a detail of the Mexicans.
Lieutenant Adair had already been wounded and had lost his pistol in the previous fighting, but he had borrowed another and was fighting a hand-to-hand battle when he was killed. His conscious and was taught the Negro sergeant he did toward the ditch, he was deep, filled with water. The sergeant held Adair in his arms, his face above the water, until he died, the wounded officer reciving only long enough to whisper orders to leave him and finish the mission.
Trooper Sam Harris' Story.
PrIVATE Sam H. Harris of Troop C was carried into Columbus, N. M., with bullet wounds in his left shoulder and arm, received in the fight at Carrizal. He told aVID and interesting story of the battle and of how he rode through the Mexican lines and escaped. Said Harris:
"They had a machine gun, and they surprised us. We approached them in a peaceful way and never had an idea that they would try to massacre us. Had we known they wanted to fight we could have given it to them. I guess they got enough at that."
Harris's troop was surrounded by the Carranistas, he said. He escaped, wounded, from the cordon the Mexicans had drawn around the Americans by riding straight through their line on his mount, which also had been wounded. He rode this horse until it fell from loss of blood, and then caught another fleeing animals, with which he eventually caught up with other survivors, whom he accompanied to field headquarters.
"Our troops, Captain Boyd commanding, had pulled up before Carranzel," he said. "The captain ordered every one to dismount. I took charge of some animals while their riders stood at attention, and Captain Boyd went forward. Soon the shooting started and Captain Boyd went down. There were easily 700 Mexicans around us. Seeingly they had come up out of the ground, forming a half circle. Our men kept on falling. The first shots came from a machine gun. It was trained right on us.
"It wasn't more than two minutes before the Mexicans had surrounded us. Our troops 'fought' effectively, but we didn't have a show, and I saw it. I was hit in the shoulder and I cut the horses loose, and, climbing on my animal, spurred him toward the thinnest part of the circle.
"I went right through the Mexicans. My horse ran ten miles before he settled down to a walk. Five miles further on his legs gave out and he went down. I knelt down and poured a little water from my canteen on his tongue, and, I guess he understood, for he got that look in his eyes animals have when they are grateful.
"I walked until I found one of our animals. I mounted him; and rode on toward Colonia Dublan. Before I got there I ran into some other survivors, and we went in together."
Another Trooper's Statement.
Trooper W. D. Gibson, reported to be held a prisoner by Gen. Trevino, the Mexican commander at Chihuahua City, is reported as having made a statement to Gen. Trevino.
Gibson's story as given out by Gen. Trevino, follows:
"Capt. Morey joined us at Santo Domingo. That night four Mexicans came into camp and told us that the Carranza troops at Carrizal had four machine guns. It was said that these Mexicans had warned Capt. Boyd he had better turn back, but I don't know if there was any truth in this talk.
"Two miles out of Carrizal we were lined up by Capt. Boyd and told we might have to fight or we might get through peacefully, but there was only one way to carry out orders and that was to obey them. This was the first time we had ever started anywhere without nowing where we were going.
"When the fighting started we were open plain and the Mexicans had advantage of ditches and brush."
Returning from his conference with Mexican leader, Capt. Boyd gave his urge to his striker and ordered us to advance in skirmish order and to hold our fire until we were fired upon.
"Fifteen of our men dropped on the first volley. We fought hard until we were about surrounded. Then we dropped our guns and ran. We thought we could try and get to El Paso. We were overtaken at Los Humos.
"We were brought back to Villa Ahumada, but were well treated."

While the colored people of Newark
land vicinity generally deplore the exist-
ence of the war in Europe and. the
lalmost certainty of the Unnted States
and Mexico going to war, yet they can
see in them a blessinig-in disguise. Not
for-many years have they had such op-
portunity to secure lucrative positions as
now. No man or woman need be with-
Jout work who really desires emplos-
ment. Factories and households. for-
merly barred to them have been thrown
Jopen and noW-is the time for them to
{grasp the opportunities to make good.

MUSIC NOTES:
(BY LUCIEN H. WHITE.)
What promises to be one of the artistic triumphs of the season is indicated by the program to be rendered tonight, Thursday, June 29, at the Manhattan Casino, by Edward E. Thompson and his brass band. Harlem will have an opportunity to hear such music as is usually only rendered by the symphony orchestras at Carnegie and Acolian halls.
For many years musicians of merit have found employment in New York in small groups. But now Thompson has gathered together a large aggregation of schooled Negro musicians, and he is offering a most novel feature in the shape of a double octette, sixteen, slide trombones. The program offered by Mr. Thompson is as follows:
La Cravane—(Geo, Asch).
Descriptive Oriental, march.
Birds in the Woods.
French Horn quartet with Flute obliterate
The Butterfly- Morceau characteristic
-(Max Beidis)
Pilgrim's Chorus—from Tannhauser—(Wagner).
Band and 16 trombones
Overture "Der Tambou der Garde"
—(A, E, Tul).
( A. E. F. R. )
Go 'Long, Mule, Go 'Long—(Will
Dixon).
Double Octette—16 Trombones.
Intermezzo—"Forget Me Not"—(A.
MacBeth).
Band and 16 Trombones.
Band and 10 Troubleshooters
Old Favorites of Colored Composers:
(a) A Dream (Hogan); (b) Mandy;
(c) Bamboo Tree (Cole & Johnson);
(d) Nobody; (e) Bon Bon Buddy (Geo.
Walker).
March-"King of Clubs."
Full Band.
According to published reports, Philadelphiaans are looking forward to a winter of extreme activity along musical lines. Talent from New York is scheduled for a large participation in these efforts, one of the most important being the contemplated appearance of Miss Ethel Richardson, a graduate of the Damrosch Institute of Musical Art, and a member of the faculty at the Music School Settlement, 4-6 West 131st street. Accompanying her will be J. Rosamond Johnson, who will appear in a program of original compositions.
Deacon Johnson, president and manager of the Clef Club, is negotiating for the appearance in Philadelphia during November of that musical organization. The Clef Club has just presented to the people of this city one of the most successful of its many affairs, appearing in Ye Olde-Tyme Minstrel performance at Manhattan Casino, presenting many of the most famous stars of the race. Then there is the regular tour of the Tampa Club under direction of James Reese Europe, who was formerly the head of the Clef Club and who was responsible for a large part of the fame gained in musical exposition by that club. Since founding the Tempo Club he has kept up this good work. And the Philadelphia folks are hoping that he will arrange a date for the appearance of the Tempo boys in that city.
Another musical attraction which is attracting attention is the announcement that Mine. E. Azalia Hackley has engaged Musical Fund Hall for an October date. Mine. Hackley has founded and developed the Normal Vocal Institute, 3019 Calumet avenue, Chicago, and she has built up a great institution there in a very short while. But she has also found time to present in various cities folk-song festivals in which programs of original compositions by race composers, as well as all the old familiar plantation melodies, are rendered by choruses of two and three hundred voices. She has given festivals of this sort in Washington, D. C. Atlanta, Ga. Springfield, Cal.
do the same thing at the Philadelphia Musical Fund Hall, with probably the largest chorus she has yet gotten together. Certainly the Philadelphiaians are right in looking forward to Mme Hackley's coming. And then, too, they will have their own home institution, the Philadelphia Concert Orchestra, E. Gilbert Anderson, conductor, which is scheduled for a big musical event at the Academy of Music in Presbyteria.
Away down South, at Dallas, Texas, the most ambitious plans are being laid for a mammoth Southern Negro Folk Song Festival, on July 26, 27 and 28, at which time it is hoped that there will be heard in that far. Southern city some of the most distinguished musicians of the race. Positive announcement is made by the Dallas promoters that they have secured the services of Mrs. Daisy Tapley of New York who is referred to by the Texans as "the greatest living colored contralto soloist, who has the distinction of being styled 'The Colored Angel of Song.'" Mrs. Tapley has not, I think, sung so far South, and if she does go to Dallas, the Texans have a great treat awaiting them.
For this same festival, the promoters announce that the favorite Chicago singer, Mme. Anita Patti Brown, has been engaged. Mrs. Brown has just returned from an extensive South American tour, and according to all reports,
she has added new laurels to her crown. She is in the East at this time, and is being heard with pleasure. Variety to the program is promised in the appearance of Dr. W. W. Lucas of Meridian, Miss, "the greatest colored humorist on earth," and referred to as a dialectitian to whom the white people have accorded great honor.
A chorus of five hundred voices is being trained by Mme. Lynconia Haynes-Morgati. As Lynconia Haynes of Macon, Ga., Mrs. Morgan was a member of the Fisk Jubilee Singers, and enjoyed a reputation second to none as a soprano soloist. For a long while she has been located in the Southwest, teaching music, and this festival will give her opportunity to display the result of her endeavors. Then the accompaniments will be played by Mrs. Portia Washington Pittman, daughter of the late Dr. Booker T. Washington, who studied the piano not only in this country but in Germany, also. Mme. Maggie C. Roberts, dean of music at Paul Quinn College, Waco, Texas, which position she has filled for fourteen years, will assist Mrs. Morgan in conducting the folk songs.

The annual recital of the pupils taught by Clarence Cameron White, the violin, occurs tonight at St. Marks' Congregational Church, Boston. An elaborate program of twenty-two numbers is to be rendered by the pupils. A feature will be the playing of the orchestral class, composed of thirty members, conducted by Mr. White.
---
An interesting recital was that given by the pupils of Miss Victoria Josephine Muse of New Haven, Conn., at the Odd Fellows Hall, Thursday evening, June 22. Miss Muse is herself a pupil at the Yale Conservatory of Music. A program of twenty numbers was rendered, ranging from the efforts of the beginners to the more developed playing of advanced pupils. Two prizes were awarded. The prize for the pupil who made the best record and showed most progress during the year, $2.50 in gold, was won by Gwendolyn Elizabeth Bonner, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Fred D. Bonner. Another prize, $2.50 in gold, for the best performance of the evening, was awarded to Beatrice Watts, daughter of Mrs. A. Watts.
WINS DIAMOND MEDAL
WIN'S DIAMOND MEDAL.
Chicago, Ill.-On Saturday night a week ago a most unusual scene occurred in the Auditorium at the fifteenth anniversary commencement of the Chicago Musical College. For the first time in the history of the college, a colored person had won the diamond medal for vocal proficiency. It seems strange that of all the students of this well known school, in all these years, that not one had even won a gold medal until last season.
Diamond medals have been won, but they were bestowed for violin proficiency. Last commencement two young colored women won gold medals and the report among our people was that the students were supposed to be Spanish or the medals would not have been bestowed.
However, to disprove this report, a brown face—unmistakably colored girl—easily took the highest gift of the college, upon merit alone, and that after just one term's work.
Mrs. Florence Cole Talbert, the winner of the diamond medal (for the voice) bears out the statement that musical brains must go hand in hand with the gift of voice.
Last fall, after examination, she was admitted to the graduating class and this rating was an admission that she was already a candidate for honor.
Mrs. Talbert was told various discouraging stories about prejudice and discrimination, yet after the beginning of the term she was placed upon the recital program. At one of these the guest artist, a singer of fame, was totally collised. This talented young woman demonstrated the tradition that the pupil makes the teacher.
No person should have learned, in one short school year what Mrs. T. Tibert demonstrated at the various regents and at commencement. So she must have been as good as their best when she entered. This is the way that every colored vocal student should enter a school. Half of the colored vocal pupils do not know how to take advantage of what the musical college offers. No colored student, unless possessed of brains (intellectual experience) and unless he has ideals and can express himself, can hope to win, or win, musical recognition in any good coffee from a board of examiners, no matter what she may be able to win from the general public.
It was an inspiring sight of graduates and a vast audience. Among the 250 or 300 students were several colored students. One in cup and gown had won her degree in music. Another from the senior department, and one from the public school music course. Some were "passing," but most were taking their chances, as plain colored. All of us colored people chapped heartily for each participant, that we might not be noticeable when we split our gloves for our colored girl, for Mrs. Talbert is only a girl in years. Then for the first time to my knowledge a colored artist had the honor to sing accompanied by a Metropolitan Symphony Orchestra of sixty members, Mrs. Talbert sang "Uro Nome" from Rizqetto, the song which gave her the medal. The colored people did not need to clap, for the vast audience did what all intelligent audiences do when vocal merit is the test. Someone has said that "No one begrudges an colored singer his gift of voice. It is recognized as a racial persecutive."
I would 'not have missed her triumph for any price. Mrs. Talbert's
voice is a lyric soprino, which is capable of any demand to be found in the literature for that voice. She is developing into a 'handsome type of woman. Her musthandship is unquestioned. She has accomplished more for herself, at her age, than any artist of the race. In other words, she is more fully prepared than any of us have been at her age. She will learn what is required of her when she comes before mixed audiences of her own people and will adapt herself, just as others have done. She deserves all the credit that can be given to her for what she has done to prepare herself in spite of tremendous olds. Ir husband, too, is to be praised for his faith, her ability and his hearty co-operation. Of course, everyone must hear the first colored girl be a vocal winner of a diamond medal. Let us take off our hats to Mrs. Florence. Talbert.

N. Y. Red Capa Lose to Washington
The first game was hotly contested, but on account of the partiality of Umpire Barber of Washington a howl went up from the visitors. He was replaced by Hardings, who rendered such bad decisions in the second game that Jordan and Haywood, managers for New York, called all the visitors off the field. After a parley the men returned and finished the game. The score:

PUGILISM
There will be two star ten-round bouts on the all-colored boxing show at the Vauberluit A. C. Monday night, July 3. In the main event "Eddie" Kid Dandell the best colored light-weight now boxing, meets "Wee Wee" Barton the rugged local welterweight boxer.
In the other ten-rounder, Patsey McGirr, the sensational colored featherweight of Cincinnati, will meet Darkey Griffin of Brooklyn. In selecting Griffin for his initial bout in New York McGirr has certainly picked out a big night's work for himself, as Darkey is as clever as they come, and he has more than once put an end to the aspiration of many ambitious youngsters.
Flushing Clubs Defeats Colonialis.
The excellent courts of the Colonial Club, situated at 5th avenue and 138th street, was the scene of a very interesting match game between the Flushing Tennis Club and the home team on Saturday, June 24. E. K. Jones of the Flushinga in was in rare form and exhibited a fine brand of the art of wielding the racket. He was pitted against O. C. Newton, one of the cracks of the Colonialis, an made him look like a novice, winning his game in straight sets at 6-1, 6-1.
The ladies gave a good account of themselves. For the Colonials Miss M. E. Gardeen played an excellent game in defeating Mrs. E. K. Jones of the Flushings, while Mrs. F. Wier arrived the banner of the Colonials to victory after a keen contest with Miss Louise Latimer Mrs. A. S Reed of the visitors worker hard for her victory over Miss Didier of the team, who made it exciting for her to the very last.
The match was a keenly contested one, as will be seen by the scores, and ended only when darkness intervened.

Tennis Courts at Englewood
Tennis Courts at Englewood.
ENGLEWOOD, N. J.-L. M. Cobbs, the tailor, has purchased the ground and
arranged a double tennis court which he has opened up for the use of the Englewood colored players.

He is a graduate of Hampton and is the proprietor of the largest tailoring business in Englewood.
Lawn Tennis in Birmingham.
Lawn Tennis in Birmingham Institute, in. The sixth annual tournament of the Virginia Lawn Tennis Association held on the courts at Hampton Institute, June 15-15, was but in the history of association. Never before has the playing been of so high an order. The courts were in fine condition, and the eighteen players set a standard that it will be difficult, to surpass in the future. The contestants represented the tennis clubs of Roanoke, Lawrenceville, Richmond, Hanover, Portsmouth and Hampton.
The playing reached a sensational stage in the semi-finals in singles, and in the finals in doubles. James Gayle of Hampton Institute and J. M. Pollard of St. Paul School, Lawrenceville, played an even more remarkable game in the semi-finals than the usual score indicates. And the final contest in doubles between Gayle and Dr. J. L. McGriff for Portsmouth and A. H. Turner and J. M. Pollard of Lawrenceville, the title holders, was the best in this class ever seen here. Gayle and McGriff carried off the honors and thereby won the first leg on the new cups offered by the association.
Weather conditions and Pollard's severe match with Gayle, whom he defeated, put him at a disadvantage in the final contest with Layton of Hanover, the title holder of singles. Layton won for the third time and thereby gained permanent possession of the cup offered by the Journal and Culpe. The scores are as follows: Singles—A. H. Turner vs. W. T. B. Williams, 6-1, 6-1—Turmer winner. W. E. Coleman vs. W. D. Hill—Coleman forfeits to Hill. J. M. Pollard vs. Dr. L. C. Downing, 6-3, 6-3—Pollard winner. W. H. Harris vs. Dr. E. D. Downing, 10-8, 6-8—Harris winner. Dr. J. L. McGriff vs. Thos. C. Hayes, 6-0, 6-2—McGriff winner. J. Gayle vs. P. T. Beauford, 6-0, 6-1—Gayle winner. Pollard vs. Harris, 6-0, 1-6, 6-1—Pollard winner. McGriff vs. Hill, 6-2, 6-0. Turner defaults to Pollard and McGriff to Gayle. Pollard vs. Gayle, 6-3, 17-15, Pollard winner. Finals: Layton vs. Pollard, 6-4, 6-3, 6-4.
Doubles: Layton-Beauford vs. Downing-Downing, 6-3, 6-3-Downings winners. Layton-Beauford vs. Hayes-Coleman, 6-2, 6-2. Williams-Canady vs. Downing-Downing, 6-2, 6-3-Downings winners. Gayle-McGriff vs. Hill-Harris, 6-1, 6-1-Gayle-McGriff winners. Gayle-McGriff vs. Downing-Downing, 6-1, 6-6-Gayle-McGriff winners. Finals: Gayle-McGriff vs. Turner-Polar, 6-2, 6-2, 6-3.

Federal Inquiry or Railroad Strike?
Faced by demands from the conductors, engineers, firemen and brakemen that would impose on the country an additional burden in transportation costs of $100,000,000 a year, the railroads propose that this wage problem be settled by reference to an impartial Federal tribunal.
With these employees, whose efficient service is acknowledged, the railroads have no differences that could not be considered fairly and decided justly by such a public body.
Railroads Urge Public Inquiry and Arbitration
The formal proposal of the railroads to the employees for the settlement of the controversy is as follows:
"Our conferences have demonstrated that we cannot harmonize our differences of opinion and that eventually the matters in controversy must be passed upon by other and disinterested agencies. Therefore, we propose that your proposals and the proposition of the railways be disposed of by one or the other of the following methods:
1. Preferably by submission to the Interstate Commerce Commission, the only tribunal which, by reason of its accumulated information bearing on railway conditions and its control of the revenue of the railways, is in a position to demand and equities of all the affected areas to provide additional revenue necessary to meet the added cost of operation in case your proposals are found by the Commission to be just and reasonable; or, in the event the Interstate Commerce Commission cannot, under existing laws, act in the premises, that we jointly request Congress to take such action as may be necessary to enable the Commission to consider and promptly dispose of the questions involved; or
2. By arbitration in accordance with the provisions of the Federal law $ ^{11} $ (The Newlands Act).
Leaders Refuse Offer and Take Strike Vote
Leaders of the train service brotherhoods, at the joint conference held in New York, June 1-15, refused the offer of the railroads to submit the issue to arbitration or Federal review, and the employees are now voting on the question whether authority shall be given these leaders to declare a nation-wide strike.
The Interstate Commerce Commission is proposed by the railroads as the public body to which this issue ought to be referred for these reasons:
No other body with such an intimate knowledge of railroad conditions has such an unquestioned, position in the public confidence.
The rates the railroads may charge the public for transportation are now largely fixed by this Government board.
Out of every dollar received by the railroads from the public nearly one-half is paid directly to the em
ployees as wages; and the money to pay increased wages come from no other source than the rates paid by the public.
The Interstate Commerce Commission, with its control over rates is in a position to make complying investigation and render such decision as would protect the interests of the railroad employees, the owners of the railroads, and the public.
A Question For the Public to Decide
The railroads feel that they have no right to grant a wage preferment of $100,000,000 a year to these employees, now highly paid and constituting only one-fifth of all the employees, without a clear mandate from a public tribunal that shall determine the merits of the case after a review of all the facts.
The single issue before the country is whether this controversy is to be settled by an impartial Government inquiry or by industrial warfare.
