COLORED VOTERS EAGER TO LEARN ATTITUDE OF MR. HUGHES TOWARD THEM
While Not Enthusiastic for Him Negroes Show A Willingness to Support G. O. P. Nominee for Presidency.
TO BE BIG FACTOR IN DOUBTFUL STATES
Hundreds of Colored Voters Who Supported Roosevelt Four Years Ago are Lukewarm Toward Republican Party—Colored Politicians up to the Same Old Tricks Assuring Leaders They Have Colored Vote in Vest Pockets.
Washington, D. C.—The rank and file of colored officers, the
nine thousands who go to the polls but who lie no claim to being
are beginning to ask. And from casting their ballots
on day, what part is the Negro going to play in the campaign?
To answer this question, a market for conjecture, for all manner of
imports, to discuss with any degree of truth, the probable
effect of the election in the coming campaign.

Colored Politicians Ready.
Mrs. H. L. is a local Campaign organizer, who through her organization will be wrong to state that political causes and would be politicians are inactive. Since the nomination, Hughes they cannot be accused of "witchcraft waiting." They have been meeting in New York singly, in pairs, groups and crowds to discuss the best method of forming a personal acquaintance with the G. O. I campaign funds, and while they are aware no treasurer has been appointed or no fin is collected, yet they are convincing M. Hughes and Willey of their strong belief in "preparedness." It is said that these "preparedness" advocates are of one mind on one subject—the location of the colored campaign headquarters. It has been moved, seconded and unanimously voted that the headquarters shall be maintained in New York. But whereabouts in New York has become a mooted question. Song preier Harlem scenery, but each Harlem advocate has a particular street of his own. Then such knotty problems as securing headquarters lighted with electricity or gas, and leasing of a place with or without elevator service are causing no end of discussion and worry.
What a striking difference in the methods adopted by women and colored men in playing the political game? In New York several days ago the women arrested it promoted the election of Mr. Hughes. Upon organizing they began to raise a fund and in little or no manner collected $25,000. The organizer is to be made up of women all over the country. The colored politicians organize to Mr. Hughes, in but in helping Mr. Hughes has to see to it that they will. When he is elected who will be the more strategic position the outspoken? Those who colored their funds and worked in the election of Hughes or those who went to Republican nominee or his man, the financial aid to carry on the promoting his election?
Women More Aggressive.
another illustration of how
female men and members of the
interior in doing things pos-
tent in Chicago and St. Louis
were so aggressive in their
image that they compelled
the inner circle to take
suitage. This was done by
against their will, but they
were the same, for they were
do otherwise.
But at Chicago, when colored men, representing an element more powerful than women as voters, desired to have a bank inserted in the G. O. P. It denounced lynching, the repressions of the large colored vote were able to gain their point, as most of the were too busy 'turning on' on, if it had a good time. The usual method of getting things was consisted of to however-talking and to the Apomattox Club, in the rest of jollity and oratory, a book of resolutions, evidently intended use, were adopted using, with the understandable effort be made to get the embodied in the G. O. P. There has been such a difference in opinion as to whether a protest was made to win over the platform that it is able to report correctly just what he except that no anti-lynching plank appeared in the platform. Until the nomination of Hughes, Prescott was the favorite candidate of most colored Republicans, just as he
Four Years Ago.
Four years ago Negroes were in a disagreeable mood, showing a most independent attitude at the polls. Hundreds voted the Democratic ticket to see what the Democrats would do if the Negro met them half way. How Wilson broke his word to Bishop Walters about treating the Negro justly, the wholesale dismissal from office of colored men and the segregation of colored employees in the capital of the United States are all painful subjects too well known to discuss here. Had Wilson and his Democratic followers shown a desire to deal fairly with the Negro a different situation might exist. But with the present, antipathy of the colored man toward the Democratic Parts on National matters, there is little likelihood of the Democratic Campaign Committee making an especial effort to corral colored voters and to point to the fact that during his term of four years as Governor, Mr. Hughes did not appoint a single Negro, to office. On the other hand, it has been pointed out that as Associate Justice of the United States Supreme Court, Mr. Hughes handed down a number of important decisions in favor of the Negro, the Oklahoma election case being the most notable.
At this juncture it cannot be truthfully said that the colored voters are enthusiastically throwing their hats in the air for the Republican nominee, and when Negro politicians assure Mr. Hughes and other leaders that they may count on colored voters, as the Negroes are all enthusiastic for the ex-Justice, they picture a situation which is not true. The colored voters are disposed to be on friendly terms with Mr. Hughes and will be if he makes it manly, test that he too, is going to be friendly, and on a fifty-fifty basis. Just at the time the Negro is in an optimistic frame of mind and is hoping the standard bearer of the Republican party will strongly profess his friendship and, if elected, accord them similar treatment as the Roosevelt and Taft during their administrations.
In doubtful states, such as New York, Ohio, Indiana, New Jersey, Missouri, Maryland and West Virginia, where the Negro holds the balance of power in the various districts, his help in sending Republicans to the United States Senate and the House of Representatives will be greatly needed. He will be more in demand than ever. In the event of Hughes' election, he would need a Republican Congress to put his ideas into effect. A Democratic Congress would prove a big handicap.
Four years ago two-thirds of the colored vote was cast for Roosevelt, the Progressive nominee for President. The politician is ready to jump on the bandwidow, but those who cast their vote and are not active in politics are so far indifferent. But to sulk and stay at home because of old grievances against the Republican party would be bad politics. One of the most displorable features is the absence of capable Negro leadership. No one has loomed up on the political horizon at this writing who can command, the confidence of the people, who are sick and tired of those who professed to lead in the past. If the Negro can get leaders in whom he may implicitly rely he can secure concessions in this campaign which should prove to the mutual advantage of both race and party.

A Unique Community to be Established in the Mountains of North Carolina.
BIG CONSTRUCTIVE MOVEMENT
Promoters Have Money to Purchase 4,000 Acres Representative White and Colored Men of Both Sections Supporting Project.
(Special to The New York Age.)
Pennsylvania, I am—John Patrick Turner, a prominent colored physician, and an educator at the local public schools, is the most spirit of one of the largest and most successful constructive movements in North Carolina. Nine years—the establishment of a museum and progress, community in the nation of North Carolina—has led to an ideal health resource as well as a training industrial center.
Unlike many projects of magnitude encountered in the Near East, the case has presented the Near East the challenge. The result we can get the start with does not enter into this proposition, as money for the purchase of 4,000 acres is already at disposal and negotiations are merely way to acquire the property in the very near future. It has not been necessary for the promoters to sell stock in the beginning in order to acquire sufficient funds to finance their project.
The plans for the Negro community embody a combination of ideas being worked out at Chautauqua, N. Y., by the Methodist Episcopal Church, and those found in the establishment and maintenance of Punchurst, N. C. The charter will restrict the owner of all property to those of African descent. On the site will be erected modern hotels for visitors and tourists North Carolina is a mountain health resort both summer and winter continued on page 100.

Dr. Buckley made the address of welcome. He said, "We are gathered here tonight as representatives of a work that rises to the degree of a profession recognized over the world as eminently respectable and valuable."
This evening, Mr. Buckley will be in the captain's WELCOME.
Mr. Buckley gave a paroody followed by a performance of a shortened version of the work of Charles Perrie, titled "A Welling Stone." At the commencement of the memorial the Master of the Order under the leadership of Mr. D. Layne, furnished music for the evening. Later a diacritic collation was served.

STATE FEDERATION AND
COACHMEN GIVE TO FUND
A meeting of the Executive Committee of the Booker T. Washington Memorial Fund was held last Thursday evening in the parish house of St Marks M. I. Church. The reports given, showing that subscriptions to the fund were coming in larger and better than at any time during the campaign, were choreographed to the committeemen present.
A decision to continue the campaign, with everyone among his services, from now on grants, was reached, and a renewed effort will be made to collect a total thousand dollars more by fall.
Among the late subscribers are the Imperial State Februarying Women's League, which gave $5, and the Coach's Union League Society, which also contributed $5.
DR POWELL LOSES
UMBRELLA AT PHILA
Sorry, good brother, either, preacher or
brown, is being shielded from the hot
sum of heat by the same silk umbrella
that formally performed a like duty for
the Rev. Dr. A. C. Powell, pastor of
Virginian Baptist Church, New York.
The umbrella left the good doctor's
possession while he was in Philadelphia at
attending the sessions of the New England
Baptist Convention and he would certi-
ally appreciate having it back.
Dr. Powell's anxiety reached its climax it last week when the mercury began climbing in the thermometers and reached nearly to zero in the shade. He died in statue and massive in bulk. Dr. Powell is quick to feel the living embrace of the rays from Old Sols' gleaming face, so he is sending out a cry into Macedonia, by sending out the following appeal:
"If any good brother got hold of the wrong umbrella during the New England convention in Philadelphia, he will do A. Clayton Powell, 240 West 40th street, New York, a great favor by notiving him of the fact."
It is hoped that the good Baptist brother (or, mayhap, it is a sister) who is using Dr. Powell's sunshade will have compassion and let the umbrella come home.
FIGHTING THE PLAGUE BY CLEANING UP CITY
Unabated Increase of Infantile Paralysis Cause of Preventive Measures.
Mayor M. Mitchell Calls Conference of Heads of Five City Departments and Inaugurates "Clean-Up Campaign" in the Five Boroughs of Greater New York—Mayor Issues Statement.
New York's plague of infantile paralysis continues unabated, notwithstanding most efforts in efforts put forth in the city and national health.
Written at the beginning of this week, the plague is taken by Mayor Mitchell, in interviews with the city or all city officials, to force a cleanup from all sections of the city, from every particle of soil, from garbage and rubbish in Commissioner Emerson, Street Commissioner Featherston, New York Commissioner Goody, Commissioner Murphy, and Water Supply Commissioner Willis, who were in the conference and they were invited to use the most aggressive of their disposal in compiling people to get rid of dangerous conditions.
The United States Public Health Service has begun laboratory research work to determine the ways in which the disease is carried. Six skilled investigators, under the direction of Dr. H. Levander, are detailed to aid the local Health Department, with headquarters in the department's building. Immediate Paralysis being essentially a first-order disease, it is not necessary if the health authorities that it was to stamp it out before it had been detected. But in order that the people on the ground may not intelligently communicate with the authorities in the field of clinical disease, Mayor M. Mitchell is still continuing major research.

ANTI-LYNCHING FUND
OF $10,000 WAY
A campaign to raise an anti-lynching rud of $10,000 has been inaugurated by the N.A.A.C.P., with headquarters at 70 Fifth avenue, New York City. This campaign is projected, following upon the distribution of $5,000 copies of the story of the horrible lynching recently enacted at Waco, Texas, when Jesse Washington, a Negro boy, 17 years old, sentenced by the court to be hung, was taken from the court room while the court was still in session, mutated in the most horrible manner, strung up to a tree with a trace chain around his neck, and the body burned to a crisis.
The subscription has been headed with contributions of $1,000 each from Judge Moorfield Sturge, former president of the American Bar Association, new national president of the N. A. A. C. P. and Philip G. Peabody, of Boston, the contribution being made on condition that the remaining $8,000 be raised by August 1. Contributions should be sent to Oswald Garrison Villard, treasurer, 70 Fifth avenue, New York City, and all classes of the citizenry are requested to aid in the raising of this fund.

Eyring is the "7th Coast Defense Company is pre-deat, and which meets at the 1st Field Hospital at Fort 50 West (60th street) Lilmore and Parks are being examined for captain and McCoy for a hunt, and the examinations will probably be concluded Thursday night.
One hundred and seventy-three men were murdered into the three companies last night, and Company A, with 53 men, gives a professional fatalation to 225 men. These men will at once be taken in hand by Captain Hermann Kochler, master of sword, West Point Military Academy, who is the author of the system used in the physical development of the cadets and by the New York National Guard. Capt Kochler will put the men through a course of physical development, giving the setting-up exercises. He will then had charge of the instruction of all the troops sent to the border. The troops will also be taken at stated times to Peekskill for practice on the rule ranges under the instruction of Lieutenant Perry of the United States Navy, an expert ordnance officer. All the rule work will be personally supervised by Lieutenant Perry.
Non-Coms. are Instructed.
A school for the instruction of non-commissioned officers was started on Tuesday night at Larryette Hall, and more than fifty men were addressed by Maurel W. Dayton inspector general, who spoke on the duties and responsibilities of the non-comms, explaining the scope of their duties. He also consulted and explained the mechanism of the service role of the officers instructing the school were Captain Lorillard Spencer, military secretary to Governor Whitman, Major Motion Morris, ordinance officer, and Lieutenant Colonel George Fred Hinton, who has been detailed as assistant to Colonel Hayward. The non-coms' school will be held several nights each week. As soon as there are enough commissioned officers designated, an officers' school will be started by Colonel Hayward.
The recruiting is going forward with enthusiasm. More than three hundred men have enrolled, expressing their intention to enlist. Some of these have failed to report for medical examination, and this has delayed matters somewhat. Many former members of the four regiments in the regular army have enlisted in this regiment, and some of them will prepare to take the examination for commissions. Recruiting扎es are to be opened in Brooklyn in a few days, and it is expected that a tull battalion will be secured in that borough. Many Brooklynites have already enlisted in the 1st Battalion.
Although the State is short of equipment for the National Guard, many of the men in the regiments sent to the border going with inadequate equipment, Colonel Hay has succeeded
in providing equipment, in full or in part, for about one hundred men. In Company A, of which Lieutenant Verner W. Tandy is the provisional commander, 37 men of the 53 enlisted have been uniformed. This company was given its regular drill on Monday night in the hall and on 132d street by Lieutenant Tandy. The other companies are being drilled at present by regimental drill sergeants from the National Guard. Company A is being drilled on Monday, Wednesday and Friday nights. Cologel Hayward has stated to Eric Age that as many of the men already enlisted are employed at regular hours, he will arrange drills for their convenience. Those men who cannot get to drills at night because they are employed will be given opportunity for daytime drills.
It of possibility the collection of garbage, ashes and refuse properly deposited in receptacles and to continue to clean from the streets such refuse as may be thrown there in violation of law. This is done by the Street Cleaning Department every day at the present time, but we propose to attempt to complete the work somewhat earlier each day at present.
Don't Waste the Water!
There is no more important feature of the work of the Department of Street Cleaning at the present time than that of street flushing. This is a very useful way of using water, provided it be not wasted! Every possible effort is made to supervise the individual street cleaners, so that they shall not use the house longer than necessary.

FIGHTING THE PLAGUE BY CLEANING UP CITY
(Continued from page one)
"The Health Department is now sending every energy, night and day to prevent the spread of the infection through the hospitals as just described. This it is doing by segregating the cases in hospitals as rapidly as the diagnosis can be positively made, and by educating the people in the method of preventing personal contacts by personal cleanliness.
"At the same time we have called into co-operation the National Health service to aid in tracing the origin of this epidemic and in determining more accurately than our present knowledge permits the method of transmitting the disease.
"If the meantime, and whatever the method of transmission may be, I have determined that every precautionary measure in the nature of clearing out house refuse from halls, areas, yards and cellars, its collection and immediate removal from the street shall be taken in so far as the city government has the power to enforce the action."
Be Careful With Garbage.
"Accumulations of refuse containing garbage in the public streets at various points in the congested districts have been reported during the last few days. A real city clean-up, with the maintenance of cleanly conditions, can be effected only. if householders will co-operate by observing those ordinations forbidding the spreading of refuse in the streets.
"Householders are also required by law to maintain water-tight and properly covered metal receptacles, for garbage, and to deposit rubbish seriously tied in bundles so that it will not spread over the streets.
I have directed the Police Department rigidly to enforce these ordinances. I have specifically directed that any householder, storekeeper or other person found depositing garbage or rubbish in the streets in violation of these ordinances is to be arrested and arraigned before a magistrate. I am requesting the mayor to urge the registrars in the city to open the city authorities to enforcing the law and to impress its importance upon violators by adequate penalties.
I have further directed the Tenement House Commissioner to utilize the resources of his department to impel the cleaning up of halls, area yards throughout the
it of possibility the collection of garbage, ashes and refuse properly deposited in receptacles and to continue to clean from the streets such refuse as may be thrown there in violation of law. This is done by the Street Cleaning Department every day at the present time, but we propose to attempt to complete the work somewhat earlier each day than at present.
Don't Waste the Water!
There is no more important feature of the work of the Department of Street Cleaning at the present time than that of street flushing. This is a very useful way of using water, provided it be not wasted! Every possible effort is made to supervise the individual street cleaners, so that they shall not use the hose longer than necessary on any one spot, though it is unfortunately often difficult to control their individual operations. In due course it is hoped to rectify this condition. Meanwhile it should be remembered that not over 1 per cent of the total amount of water consumed daily is used for street cleaning, while elsewhere among private consumers there is a preventable waste of from 1 per cent of such total.
It short, it will be the effort of the state government during the continuance of the epidemic of infantile paralysis to focus all its forces on a general city cleanup as a means of reducing the possibility of the spread of the disease. The resources of the Health Department, the Street Cleaning Department, the Police Department, the Department of Water Supply, the Tenement House Department will not be employed to this end. I wish to urge citizens to permit the removal of the dead children to hospitalized by the Department of Health. The death rate in this epidemic has been appreciably lower in hospitals in which patients are taken for the sake of isolation than in patients "homes where adequate care cannot be provided."

STRAIGHTEN YOUR HAIR
Not with hot irons. But do it with Kink-no-more, the greatest hair straightening premise, to make it more 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 little combing the hair becomes straight, to stay or one day or one week, but to last from six to eight months. Water nor nothing else will make it kink again after it has been straightened. Kink-no-more is a wonder worker. So many about it do it, do its work that one can hardly believe their own eyes. It works like magic, and is unique because there is no other preparation in the world like it. We offer a reward of $100 for hair the Kink-no-more will not straighten.
Kink-no-more is a vegetable compound; it is perfectly harmless and will not injure you. It is safe from falling out; positively removes landruff, promotes a luxuriant growth of healthy hair and keeps it soft and glossy. It is also safe to use is more is said under a guarantee to do all the work or money refunded. We will send to anyone on the receipt of $1.00 a regular size from one to two weeks, enough to straighten from one to two weeks, ordering send registered letter, postal money order or express money order.

Last Saturday the writer stood on a corner of one of our busy streets and counted two Greek peanut wagons, two Italian ice cream carts, three Greeks selling fruits, three Americans selling fruits, three American pedding vegetables. The streets were crowded with country people, a majority of them colored, but we did not see one Negro offering anything for trade. On the other hand, he was the purchaser of those different wares. As a general rule every white farmer who comes to town sells his wares. The Negro is content to come to town "to add he seen." We must quit this foolishness and learn to barter and trade. We must learn to mingle business with pleasure. Bake a lot of blackberry pies and offer them for sale. Take my word for it, they will sell quickly.

THE "RED CAP" AND "BIG
NEGRO."
The generosity displayed by the "red caps" of the Grand Central and Pennsylvania stations in subscribing nearly $300 to the Booker T. Washington Memorial Fund affords an interesting comparison between the "big Negro" and the "little Negro" in Greater New York. James H. Williams, chief of "red caps" at the Grand Central Station, and W. H. Robinson, chief of "red caps" at the Pennsylvania station, along with their co-workers, have unconsciously and without intent shown up the "big Negro." The "red caps" belong to that element which believes in co-operation and the subordination of petty jealousy and inconsequential personal opinion for the success of a common and deserving cause. They are from what Booker T. Washington had the greatest faith—the masses.
As in most public movements calling for unity, unselfishness and broadness of vision, the success of the Booker T. Washington Memorial Fund campaign in Greater New York has been brought about by the "little Negro," who, despite his presumed "inferior" mentality and "lowly" position in life has displayed the usual intelligence by thoroughly appreciating the delicate position in which his race has been placed coming forward as all race-loving Negroes should, and contributing dimes, quarters, half dollars and dollars to a fund to which the white people of the country have subscribed to date nearly one million dollars.
The "big Negro," on the other hand, has been consistent to form, to use the language of the turf, exhibiting his "bigness" by culturally known. A glance over the local subscription list will bring to light that of all the colored medical doctors in Greater New York but two, Dr. E. P. Roberts and Dr. York Russell (the two most widely known) have subscribed to the fund. Of the colored lawyers only the name of Wilford H. Smith appears, while the names of our leading business men are few and far between. Leroy Wilkins heading the list with a subscription of more than $40, which he solicited.
There are members of the Executive Committee who have not subscribed a penny and others who have pledged as high as $25, but have suffered a lapse of memory since the evening they were carried away by an uncontrollable feeling of generosity and enthusiasm. There are members of the Executive Committee who have been unable to find time to attend meetings, but have seized every opportunity to hold meetings on the highways and byways, and there, like the Mexican sniper, circulate false reports about the local campaign and perform other cowardly acts behind the backs of those who have been zealously and sincerely working since February to honor the name of, Booker T. Washington and who are striving in their little way, to convince the white friends of the race that the Negro is not in toto a sponge and is willing, on some occasions, to join with the Caucasian in paying tribute to the worthy.
Members of the race which has already subscribed $1,000,000 to the Washington Memorial Fund find it difficult to understand the strange and unfriendly attitude of the "big Negro" Why some minister should oppose the observation of. Booker T. Washington Day in his church because he did not agree with the teachings of the great Tuskegeean during life;
VIEWS and REVIEWS
THE REAL REASONS
Perhaps for the purpose of factures in the South the Manufacton between some of the New England states regarding the extent of We quote from the article the following:
Rhode Island, with an area miles, and with a population of invested in manufacturing than and its 2,800,000 people. It had $ than South Carolina, with over a population of 1,600,000. North prosperous industrial states of the right times as large as Rhode Island nearly four times as great, it be invested in manufacturing than land.
Several Southern dailies have difference. One of the most prompt for this backwardness of the South
1. That the density of the states is both the cause and effect along manufacturing line.
2. That New England was country from which settlers can.
3. That New England had while the South had none, excel.
4. That the South was great.
These reasons are hardly satake Massachusetts and Virginia and the latter in 1607. In 1790; their founding, Massachusetts hignia a population of 747,610; the double the population of the No other reason than having had the for the far greater development may be said that a large proportion was made up of slaves, but that the point we are driving at.
As to distance from England miles had no effect upon the desir than three thousand miles. An must not be forgotten that the first States to England sailed from S Savannah were once more import or Boston.
Perhaps, the South is deficient board, but the water power which as Richmond was never utilized to Instead of setting the South to modern industry and commerce.
What then are the reasons for and wealth which New England are two which stand out.
In the first place, Massachusetts were settled by a class of p who settled Virginia and the Soe, but the settlers of Massachusetts who came over ready and w while Virginia was settled by "not only did not know how to averse to doing so. These traits in two sections down to the present.
This aversion to labor brings on increased indolence with its slavery flourished in the South as could not be made profitable in some slight truth in that, but the slavery in the South was the awa labor. The gentlemen of Virginia over in large numbers, had white time the white slaves in Virginia the slave was white, red or black have somebody to do his work.
In a general word, it might Massachusetts came over to work came over to escape work; and a than those to be expected.
There is another reason, a to-day than the one cited above.ern states are using a large part gies in holding the Negro back, to developing and advancing the Negro down. If in a race, on in trying to hold another runner, to keep up with those runners we to forget ahead?
Our Southern contemporary for the reason of the backwardn
for the purpose of stimulating the growth of the South the Manufacturers' Record makes some of the New England States and some regarding the extent of their manufacturing from the article the following striking paragraphs on the Island, with an area of a little more than 14,000 with a population of only 602,000, had $46,000 in manufacturing than Georgia, with 58,000 so $80,000 people. It had $101,000,000 more money in North Carolina, with over 30,000 square miles of land of 1,600,000. North Carolina is accounted for as industrial states of the South, but, though as large as Rhode Island, and though its purposes as great, it had in 1914 $51,000,000 in manufacturing than that tiny little state of the South.
Southern dailies have attempted to explain one of the most prominent assigns the follow-wardness of the South. That the density of the population of the New England the cause and effect of the great development along manufacturing lines. That New England was several hundred miles from which settlers came. That New England had plenty of available water South had none, except back in the unsettle that the South was greatly set back by the Cause reasons are hardly satisfactory. For illustrations and Virginia: the former was founder in 1607. In 1790, three-quarters of a large, Massachusetts had a population of 378,000 of 747,610; that is, the Southern state population of the New England state, than having had the start in population more greater development now enjoyed by Massachusetts that a large proportion of Virginia's population of slaves, but that fact will only go to me are driving at. Distance from England, the difference of seven effect upon the destination of people who thousand miles. And, in regard to transforgotten that the first steamship to sail from England sailed from Savannah in 1819. Chance once more important as seaports that, the South is deficient in water power all the water power which is available around it was never utilized to any great degree of setting the South back, the Civil War industry and commerce.
Then are the reasons for the immense lead which New England acquired over the South stand out. First place, Massachusetts and the other New England settled by a class of people entirely different Virginia and the South. They were all settlers of Massachusetts were Puritans, a time over ready and willing to work with Virginia was settled by "gentlemen." a class of men not know how to work with their hands so. These traits have remained character down to the present day. Persion to labor brought on slavery, and slaves indulgence with its results. It is often finished in the South and not in New England made profitable in the latter section: the truth in that, but the real cause for the South was the aversion of the Southern gentlemen of Virginia, before Negroes were numbers, had white slaves and Indian slave slaves in Virginia outnumbered the blacks white, red or black, the Virginian was only to do his work. General word, it might be said that the people came over to work, and those who set to escape work; and the results have been to be expected.
Is another reason, a reason which, perhaps the one cited above. The white people of the area using a large part of their physical and being the Negro back. Energy which shouting and advancing the South is being used to down. If in a race, one runner used part of hold another runner back, what chance with those runners who were using all of the road? Southern contemporary needs to look deeper on of the backwardness of the South.
Perhaps for the purpose of stimulating the growth of manufactures in the South the Manufacturers' Record makes a comparison between some of the New England States and some of the Southern states regarding the extent of their manufacturing industries. We quote from the article the following striking paragraph:
Rhode Island, with an area of a little more than 1,000 square miles, and with a population of only 602,000, had $46,000,000 more invested in manufacturing than Georgia, with 58,000 square miles and its 2,800,000 people. It had $101,000,000 more money in factories than South Carolina, with over 30,000 square miles of land area and a population of 1,600,000. North Carolina is accounted one of the prosperous industrial states of the South, but, though it is forty-eight times as large as Rhode Island, and though its population is nearly four times as great, it had in 1914 $51,000,000 less capital invested in manufacturing than that tiny little state of New England.
Several Southern dailies have attempted to explain this great difference. One of the most prominent assigns the following reasons for this backwardness of the South.
1. That the density of the population of the New England states is both the cause and effect of the great development of that section along manufacturing lines.
2. That New England was several hundred miles nearer the country from which settlers came.
3. That New England had plenty of available water power, while the South had none, except back in the unsettled interior.
4. That the South was greatly set back by the Civil War.
These reasons are hardly satisfactory. For illustration, let us take Massachusetts and Virginia: the former was founded in 1620 and the latter in 1607. In 1790, three-quarters of a century after their founding, Massachusetts had a population of 378,787 and Virginia a population of 747,610; that is, the Southern state had just double the population of the New England state, therefore some other reason than having had the start in population must be given for the far greater development now enjoyed by Massachusetts. It may be said that a large proportion of Virginia's population in 1790 was made up of slaves, but that fact will only go to make stronger the point we are driving at.
As to distance from England, the difference of several hundred miles had no effect upon the destination of people who came more than three thousand miles. And, in regard to transportation; it must not be forgotten that the first steamship to sail from the United States to England sailed from Savannah in 1819. Charleston and Savannah were once more important as seaports than New York or Boston.
Perhaps, the South is deficient in water power along the seaboard, but the water power which is available around such cities as Richmond was never utilized to any great degree.
Instead of setting the South back, the Civil War opened it up to modern industry and commerce.
What then are the reasons for the immense lead in population and wealth which New England acquired over the South? There are two which stand out.
In the first place, Massachusetts and the other New England states were settled by a class of people entirely different from those who settled Virginia and the South. They were all English, it is true, but the settlers of Massachusetts were Puritans, a class of people who came over ready and willing to work with their hands; while Virginia was settled by "gentlemen," a class of people who not only did not know how to work with their hands but were averse to doing so. These traits have remained characteristic of the two sections down to the present day.
This aversion to labor brought on slavery, and slavery brought on increased indolence with its results. It is often asserted that slavery flourished in the South and not in New England because it could not be made profitable in the latter section; there may be some slight truth in that, but the real cause for the flourishing of slavery in the South was the aversion of the Southern settlers to labor. The gentlemen of Virginia, before Negroes were brought over in large numbers, had white slaves and Indian slaves. At one time the white slaves in Virginia outnumbered the blacks. Whether the slave was white, red or black, the Virginian was determined to have somebody to do his work.
In a general word, it might be said that the people who settled Massachusetts came over to work, and those who settled Virginia came over to escape work; and the results have been none other than those to be expected.
There is another reason, a reason which, perhaps, is stronger to-day than the one cited above. The white people of the Southern states are using a large part of their physical and mental energies in holding the Negro back. Energy which should be applied to developing and advancing the South is being used up in holding the Negro down. If in a race, one runner used part of his strength in trying to hold another runner back, what chance would he have to keep up with those runners who were using all of their strength to forge ahead?
Our Southern contemporary needs to look deeper than it has for the reason of the backwardness of the South.

In his recent Philadelphia speech, Mr. Wilson made the following statement:
why an alumnus of Tuskegee should wax wroth and deny a representative of the Women's Committee the privilege of talking to the members of his-Sunday school for subscriptions because he was not made a member of one of the committees; or why some individual should refuse to subscribe to the fund because Tuskegee is situated in the South or because, in the opinion of the individual, Tuskegee has plenty of money, are reasons so petty and trivial that

should be ready in every point of policy and of action to vindicate at whatever cost the principles of liberty, of justice and of humanity to which we have been devoted from the first.
This continual prating about "liberty and justice and humanity" by the President of a country in which human beings are burned alive at the stake, without a single word of protest on his part, in plain language, makes us sick.
In his Fourth of July speech at Washington, Mr. Wilson said: "America opened her doors to everybody who wanted to be tree and to have the same opportunity that everybody else had to make the most of his facilities and his opportunities and America will retain its greatness only so long as it retains and seeks to realize these ideals. No man ought to suffer injustice in America. No man ought in America to fail to see the deep dictates of humanity."
In the words of Bert Williams, "Dat ain't nothin' but talk."
CAMPAIGN POETRY.
A correspondent in the New York Sun points out that the campaign poets will have no difficulty in finding rhymes for "Hughes," but wonders how they are going to make out with "Wilson." Another correspondent discovers that Wilson rhymes nicely with Pilsen; but the objection to this solitary rhyme is that the Administration is more or less identified with the grape juice movement. So it appears that the poets who wish to sing the name of Wilson in the coming campaign will be limited to the use of blank verse. In our opinion, blankety-blank verse would be more suitable.
bers of some of our churches and Sunday schools, the always reliable women and others who claim to be just ordinary human beings, the local committee has raised a sum for the memorial fund which is in four figures. The work will be continued, as assurances have been received on every hand from the "little Negro" that many additional subscriptions will be given in the near future.

Despite the rumors put out that the money contributed to the fund would be eaten up in expenses, Dr. A. Clayton Powell, Dr. W. H. Brooks, Dr. York Russell, Thos. W. Grigsby and other active members of the local committee can attest that the expenses incurred in running the Greater New York campaign have been met, that the affairs of the committee have been conducted more economically than any big public movement ever carried on by the race in Greater New York and that there is a tidy sum in the bank. The committee has been so greatly encouraged by the renewed interest evidenced in the campaign that a decision has been reached to continue the campaign until fall. In the meantime all services are being given free
Should some "little Negro" doubt the truthfulness of the charge that in most public movements the "big, Negro" is actuated by either selfishness, narrowness of vision or some petty affiliation, ask of one of them why he has not subscribed to the Booker T. Washington Memorial Fund. The Age ventures the prediction the answer will prove conclusively that he is such a little Negromentally he has not been big enough to bury the big "L," the personal element, always dominant, to unite in honoring one of America's greatest citizens, so generally acknowledged, and assist in putting the race in a more favorable light before the world.
THE BOXING BAN
The removal of the ban on mixed boxing houses does away with a rule that was a disgrace to New York State and a discrimination against its colored citizens such as we would expect to find only in the Darkest South.
Prize fighting is a poor business at best, but if we are going to have it, let us have it under fair and sportsmanlike regulations. The very absurdity of the boxing ban should have been enough to kill it. We do not see how any self-respecting prize fighter could lay claim to being the best in his class, knowing that he was fighting under a rule which protected him from meeting many of the best men in the ring. This apples to the self-instituted ban under which Jess Willard fights: how can he, as a sportsman, claim to be the world champion, when he refuses to meet men who are the masters of the ones that he defeats?
Gov. Whitman deserves credit for bringing to bear pressure for the removal of this unfair and obnoxious rule.
GEORGIA ON LYNCHING.
The General Assembly of Georgia, now in session, intends to discuss means and methods of putting a stop to lynching. It is said that several prominent members have prepared bills on the subject. One representative has a bill which makes the sheriffs directly responsible for lynchings and would impose the penalty of removal from office for letting a lynching occur. This bill will provide that where n prisoner is taken from a sheriff or his deputy or deputies and lynched by a mob, the sheriff shall automatically vacate his office. This indicates the first practical step to be taken against lynching. The matter has been discussed by
various organizations, but this is the first practical step of importance to be taken by the law-making body of a Southern State. If such a bill is introduced and passed, it will mark the beginning of the end of lynching in Georgia; and will be followed by similar legislation in other Southern States.

REMOVE COLORED POLICE; RACE BOY COTTS MERCHANTS
Negroes Win Notable Fight in Philadelphia and are Still in Fighting Mood.
POLICE BACK ON SOUTH STREET
But Colored People are Boyooting Jewish Merchants who Asked for Removal of Colored Officers Just the Same.
Pittsburgh, Pa—South street, that well with thoroughfare in South Philadelphia, where the Jewish merchant thrived and makes thousands of dollars daily. Colored people, was patrolled to moral days by white policemen, the color administrators of the law who have been sent to preserve peace in this seedy city having been summarily removed to other parts. But now the colored police officers are back again, due to one of the greatest and grandest rights put up by the Negroes of the Quaker city, who are learning what race generation can accomplish.
Recently Jewish merchants on South street concepted the idea that they wanted all colored police removed and white officers substituted. So the South Street Business Men's Association petitioned to Director of Public Safety Wilson to replace all colored police officers with blue-garbled Caucasians. For some reason Director Wilson was most favorably impressed with the line of argument presented by the Jewish merchants, and it was not many days before a colored police officer on South street was as scarce as hair on the dome of a balde headed gentleman.
Quick to Resent Transfer.
Colored citizens immediately resented the removal of colored police and a general boycott was begun on all merchants on South street. Meetings were held, the colored press became active and a house-to-house canvass was made to keep colored people from buying from South street merchants. Handbills were printed advising colored women to keep on South street, and boys were stationed in front of places of business to tribute them. The general boycott inaugurated by the colored people had its effect immediately. The receipts of the Jewish merchants tumbled toward the zero mark, and one white politician, whose place has been liberally supported for years, is said to have lost $500 the first two days of the boycott. He and other merchants began to yell that they had not been invited to the movement asking for the removal of colored police. In fact, it is difficult to find a merchant on South street to-day who claims membership in the South Street Business Men's Association.
Director Wilson was not long restoring the colored police to their old stations, and he and his political friends are somewhat perturbed just now, as the colored people still have "blood in their eyes, and are gelling venomice with much fervor.

In the 1960s the Republican voters are ingoring in the legislative record of the former Senator from Somerset County and great satisfaction is expressed while in his actions on State matters while in the Senate as well as his writings on the big questions of the day.
have been greatly surprised by the splendid headway Senator Frelinghuysen is making in his personal canvass of, the Republican voters in the State. Everywhere he goes and comes in contact with the individual voters he makes friends by the score. As a result in every county in which he has conducted a campaign the Republicans are rallying to his support in gratifying number.
Down in litchfield County, where the Senator spent two days recently, the Republicans are not through talking about the effective way in which Frelinghuysen went through that county. He called at some of the big factories, met the men at their work in different capacities, and in one of the larger plants he made a wash on the protective tariff that met with the governor. He said who are alive to what would happen to their wages in the event of a reduction in the tariff.
Senator Freelinghussen is meeting with gratifying encouragement in his campaign in the counties that have the larger vote. Republicans are flocking to his standard in large numbers. They like the Senator, his record appeals to them, and they like his platform. Furthermore, they are expressing their intention to vote for him, and to interest their friends in his candidacy. In some of the counties where the Progressive vote was large four years ago assurances of their support have been received by Senator Freelinghussen, and it is evident he will have many Progressive voters throughout the State. He is in receipt of many letters from the colored voters in all parts of the State, giving assurance of their support in the coming primaries and expressing themselves as deeply interested in his success.
Farmers throughout the State are deeply interested in the campaign of Senator Frelinghuysen, and those who are Republican stand solidly for his nomination for United States Senator. They are gratified that he has again been chosen to head the State Board of Agriculture, because they believe he is entitled to the honor for the splendid work he did in aiding in the legislation that made the reorganization of the Board possible. There is every indication that Frelinghuysen will get the solid vote of the Republican farmers of the State, and they believe that he is in every way qualified to represent them in the upper house of Congress.
COMMENT FROM GEORGIA
ON NEGRO DELGATES
THE GEORGIA PAPIST, published at Augusta, Ga. makes the following editorial comment on the inactivity of the Negro delegates to the Republican National Convention at Chicago as revealed by publications in THE ACE which called forth a statement from Benjamin J. Davis, delegate at large from Georgia, and one of the two colored members of the commission platform and resolutions Under the acronym, "The Negro and the Republican "National Convention" the Baptist says. Editor B. J. Davis let the cat out of the bag in his statement in the Atlanta Independent when he said that "No Negro committees came before the committee on resolutions at Chicago to ask for any consideration for our race in the platform of the party."
A meeting of all of the Negro delegates had been held, together with leading, or rather prominent, Negroes from all over the country, and a committee appointed to adopt resolutions to be submitted to the committee on resolutions. It appears now that this Negro committee never met, no resolutions were ever adopted, and no effort made whatever to have included in the platform one single reference to the needs and injustices of the Negro people. And thus again do our Negro political leaders fall down and demonstrate their indifference to the race's interest. It is a very discreditable showing these Negro delegates made, to say the least.
We presume that they were so busy having compacts, stars, receptions and what not, and telling each other what big men they were at home, that they forgot we poor davids in the trenches looking to them with hopes and anxiety to faithfully represent our interest. There were two Negro members on the committee on resolutions—B. J. Davis of Georgia and Dr. S. D. Redmond of Mississippi, and what little consideration the race did receive from this committee was due to the efforts of Ben Davis.
Say what you will or may, Ben Davis is a strong, able and courageous character. He is absolutely fearless when standing for what he believes in, and anybody who thinks that he can ever be killed has another "think" coming. Ben Davis will be a forceful and important factor in Georgia for many years to come. Mark that, and like it or not.
JOE BLACK LYNCHERS
BROUGHT INTO COURT
KINGSFORD, N. C.—Governor Craig threw a bombshell into the ranks of the law officers here when it became known that he had appointed Judge Bond and Solicitor Shaw to hold a special session of the Superior Court to try the lynchers of Joe Black on evidence gathered by H B Barnes, of Hot Springs, Va, who was employed by the Governor as special investigator. Rudolph Duffy assisted Solicitor Shaw.
Detective Barnes came into Greene and Lennoir counties and mingled among the people until he had secured evidence sufficient to warrant the arrest of at least two of the alleged members of the mob which took Joe Black from the Lennoir county jail. Warrants were sworn out and Sam Stocks and Arch Frizzelle, two white farmers of Greene county, were arrested and put on trial before Judge Bond, on July 4.
Committing Magistrate a Lyncher.
The opening of the trial was marked by threats against the officials of the court, sent in an anonymous letter, postmarked here in Kinston. In this letter Solicitor Shaw was advised, "You had better go slow with your lynching party, as the men that attended to Black can also attend to you. A word to the wise is sufficient." Solicitor Shaw's comment on this was "We will go slow, all right, but sure." Judge Bond in open court declared that having been assigned by Governor Craig he was prepared to conduct the examination at whatever cost and he knew of no obstacle that should interrupt it. He offered a reward of $50 for information as to the author of the threatening letter.
THE NEW YORK AGE. THURSDAY, JULY 13, 1916.
tective Barnes in his evidence showed that Magistrate Frank Rouse not only committed Joseph Black to jail but was also a member of the mob that took him out and lynched him. The lynching party was made up of Greene county men, who came into Lenoir county. Lenoir county officials, including the jailer from whom the jail keys were taken, and a policeman who met the crowd, were unable to identify any of them. But Barnes had obtained corporeation to most of the evidence he submitted Stocks and Frizzelle are both charged with having fired some of the shots which killed Joseph Black. Names were given to a number of others who were alleged to have taken part in the lynching.
It was developed that Joseph Black was charged with no crime. His son, Will Black, had been accused and it was claimed that the old man sheltered and assisted him to escape. For this he was committed to jail. It was brought out that the man barbarously tortured the old man before killing him. He was put into an automobile with several of the lynchers and enroute from Lenoir to Montreal. The lynchers amused themselves by sticking knives into him as they rode. The correspondent for the Greensboro News in referring to this phase said:
"Little evidences came out that old Joe was braver than his murderers, for he talked back to them, gave insult for torment and had to be shot to enforce submission. And many there be who say some mighty good men came from Greene county to participate in this cowardly crime. But Judge Bond is acting as if he believes that ravening mobs are not com- mitted by generosity and that it is utterly good to say a man measuring up to the standard of a southern gentleman could have taken part in that hideous orgy of torture and mutilation."
Judge Pricks Consciences.
Throughout the trial Judge Bond continually pricked the consciences of the better class of white people, especially upon their disposition as a stronger people to inflict wrongs upon a weaker element. Referring to this at one period of the trial, Judge Bond said: 'And whether we treat them right or not, there is not an intelligent white man in North Carolina who believes that 100 Negroes in a single county could break open a fall, take out a white man at midnight and lynch him without somebody's detection. And it must be said to the Negroes' credit that they have never done it. 'I do not know what was meant by the papers when they said the sheriffs of Greene and Lenoir had prophesied that the investigation would be a bultle,' the judge continued. "But I am determined so far as I can to get to the bottom of it and I have the power of the state behind me."
He spoke of old Joe Black, the lynched man. "Nobody pretends that he committed a crime." Judge Bond said, "and nobody believes that he committed one. A jury of white men would have failed to convict him. Is there an intelligent white man who does not know that if one white woman will swear that a Negro has assaulted her and point her finger at him he will be sent to the electropair chair within 60 days? What chance has he to escape? He is tried by a jury of 12 white men and a white judge.
"When a Negro can't bring a pint of liquor into town and sell it without being caught by at least three pollinators in 20 minutes, and 100 midnight assassins can come into your town under the full glare of your electric lights and tear down your jails without detection then there is something wrong. There is no excuse for living law. It is murder and it is barbarism.
"When the Hill's site judge and court officers were killed by outlaws they were murdered by men who were without mask and in open day. There was a higher order of crime than Joe Black. And some of them went to the electric chair while others sported in the nonintentional."
$10,000 Bond for Stocks.
After four days' session of court, the case was concluded for the present by Judge Bond's decision to hold Sam Stocks in bond of $10,000 for the first term of court at Onslow. The attorneys for the defense made a strong

Investigation into the acts of other alleged members of the lynching party had to be postponed because Judge Bond was called to Raleigh to hold court. But he declared that there would be all the time necessary to finish the investigation and there was no need for hurry. A number of Kinston men expressed a willingness to risk small amounts toward the making of the $10,000 bond for Stocks, but he continues for the present an inmate of Lenoir county jail.

There was a lynching at Salisbury, Royan county, fifteen years ago. And there is now in the state penitentiary one of the lynchers who was tried and convicted and given a fifteen-year sentence. Although some heinous crimes have been alleged in that county since then, there has been no lynching bees.

Sporting Notes
Harlem Sporting Club, 135th Street and Madison Avenue, last Friday night marked the opening of mixed bouts in this state and from the crowd of fight fans that turned out to see the bouts and the interest shown by both colored and white fans the bouts will be a success. No time during the bouts was there a dull audience in the ring or the audience, because each member of both races was liberally applauded for his work in the ring by his people. John Relisler, better known in the plastic world as "John, the Barber," had plenty of smiles on his face as early as 9 o'clock, because the fight fans just poured in the club and at 9.30 the club was packed. Mr. Relisler informed me that it was the largest crowd that ever turned out to
see a fight at his club and considering the number it was a most orderly crowd. The colored fighter proved to the promoter that he is not only a drawing card but also able to hold his own with the white fighters. Only one bout during the evening was a disappointment and that was the one between Kid Johnson and Azevedo. All other colored fighters should take a cleavage on white but not match himself with this bout and not match dollars when he has not a chance to win. That is just what he wants to see, but it is very humiliating for his race and I hope in the future the young colored boxer will be very careful in matching himself with the white fighters, because any match he gets he will have to fight hard to win. The sporting element was well represented at the ringside both colored and white.
The star bout of the evening gave the crowd a chance to look upon the greatest fighter of his weight in the world, white or colored, Leo Johnson, the colored lightweight champion of the world and famed as the second Joe Gans of this decade. The way he polished off Allie Nack in ten rounds in the main bout showed the fans that he is not overrated, because Johnson had the fight all the way and seemed to be able to put Nack out, at any time during the ten rounds. Paddy Donnelly, manager of Johnson is ready to match his boy with any lightweight in the world and will bet $1,500 that Johnson will outpoint them. Benny Leonard, Johnny Dundee and Freddie Welsh preferred. Weights—Johnson 128; Nack 131 3-4.
Second ten round bout terminated in the third round when Kid Jackson ran into one of Azevedo's stiff jeets and was counted out.
The next best bout of the evening was Kid Bacon, the boy that bears watching. He is coming all the time, and whenever he lights always gives satisfaction. Bacon defeated Red Mack rounds. Kid Happy, the tango king, hits the ground and goes on until at the end of four-rounds he had outpointed Jimmy Paul.
At Harlem Sporting Club, 153th st. and Madison avenue, Friday, July 14. Low Raymond, the match maker, has arranged another all star card between the colored and white fighters. All the fight fans should turn out in full to these bouts. In the first ten round bout John Lester Johnson, the clever colored heavyweight will meet Jack Dempsey. Second ten will bring together Wee-Wee Barton, the boy that makes them all step and a boy that really can fight. Barton meets Jimmy Coffey the sensational Mohawk Indian who has been fighting like a streak lately. There will also be two six round bouts between the best local boys that can be secured. We must laud Mr. Reisler for putting on the first mixed bouts and we hope he will match our boys up equally in the future.
William Watkins, better known in the fight world as Bill Watkins, has just returned from a very successful western trip where he engaged in about 12 battles. He is open to meet any white heavyweight at 195 pounds at some of the local clubs. Watkins, is aching for a match with some good white heavyweight so he can show his friends how he can really step. Watkins met and defeated some of the best heavyweight fighters out on the coast. In the twelve fights he had five were knockouts, five he secured the decisions and two were draws. The fighting Monarch, as Bill Watkins is called, says he would like to meet Jack Dillon, Hattling Levinsky and Young Jack Dempsey. Watkins, is a clever two-handed fighter with a world wide reputation and has never failed to make good in all the bouts he has engage in.
Lou Williams' of Savannah, Ga., known in the pugilistic world as "Knockout Lou Williams" is the first fight, since the ban has been lifted. fight assisce the ban has been lifted. From all reports from down South Williams is a good fighter and, is able to hold his own with any of the 133 lb. men in the country. Williams has placed himself under one of the best fight managers in the business, James Ferriebe. 45 West, 133rd street.
Amy Mack, owner of the Vanderbilt A. C., Brooklyn, in last Wednesday afternoon's Globe made the statement that "the white fighter outclasses the colored fighter in every division but one and that is the heavyweight." In answer to that statement I must say that Mr. Mack is a little partial. Now, Mr. Mack, there are good and better fighters in all races. And we as a race have first, second and third class fighters the same as the white. Mr. Mack says that the colored fighter does not carry a punch, but he must remember that this, a scientific age, and science must prevail. I know, as for science, the colored fighter really outclasses his white competitor. I know Mr. Mack would rather have a fighter that is clever than have one that could not do anything but hit and get hit, because he could not last long at that kind of fighting. All the colored fighters of any calibre are very clever and that is everything." In fighting it is to hit and evade getting hit. He said in the bantamweight class such boys as Buddy Faulkus, Battling Chuck,
THE RUNNER
BILLY WATKINS
Harry Gardner and Sallor Burton do not class with the white boys at their weight, but I must refute that argument by saying these boys can and have held their own with the best white boys in the world at the bantamweight. Faulks, Chuck and Gardner would make Kid Williams, Ertle, Al Shubert and several others step even to get a decision. In the featherweight class we have such fighters as Darkey Griffin, Mark Spencer, Terry Martin and several others who could give the champion Johnny Kibane, George Cheney and several other white boys at the featherweight limit all they are looking for. In the lightweight division the colored boy really shines because in that class we have such stars as Leo Johnson, recognized as the colored lightweight champion of the world and a second Joe Gans, and who can fight as well as any white lightweight before the public at the present. His manager, Paddy Donley, has sent out a world-wide challenge to Freddy Welsh, Dundee, Benny Leonard and all the boys at his weight in that his boy will get the decision. Then we have in that class such good fighters as Eddie Dorsey, Wee-Wee Barton, Charlie Smith, Battle-Toney and several others. In the welterweight class we have. In the Hickens, who can hit and is clever. His manager, W. T. Banks, says Hickens is open to meet any white welterweight in the world. And in this class we also have Young Joe Gans, Battling Gans, De Knight and many other good boys who class with the white fighter at all stages of the games. In the middleweight division we have one of the best men, colored or white in that class, Willie Langford, who is a clever two-handed fighter. His recent defeat of Mike Glover of Boston stamps him as the class and his manager has challenged Mike Gibbons to fight his protege for the championship of the world. Langford has several good rivals in his class, Eddie Palmer, French H Robinson, battling Holmes and Battling Marshall. I must say to Mr. Mack that if our boys are evenly matched they will make good in all classes.

AT THE THEATRES
THE NEW LINCOLN THEATRE.
For the first time in American history, a five act film drama played by colored actors, entitled "The Colored American Winning His Case," will be shown at the New Lincoln Theatre, Sunday, July 23. The story of the drama is a stirring one and strongly told. Yet it is written in such a manner that it will be easily understood by the great masses of colored theatre-goers, as both situations and color-schemes are familiar to almost every colored person. The drama revolves around a colored boy who starts life on a small farm in the South and through sheer force of self-will rises from one position to another until he nally enters a law school. The plot is thick with politics, pathos intrigue and romance. Howard University and other well-known places of the South and North will be shown in this picture. The number of people taking part in this wonderful production runs way up into the hundreds.
For Sunday, July 16, a stupendous spectacular production of six reels entitled "The End of the World," will be shown.
