VOL. XXIX No. 51 15 PHYSICIANS EIGHT LAWYERS New Roll of Honor of Professional Men who Trade with Race Merchants. All Branches of Medical Profession Considered, Including Chiropodists—Most of Them Patronize Only One Merchant. Concensus of Opinion Among Negro Merchants is that the Bulk of Their Trade Comes from the Non-Professional Classes, and They Say that the People are Giving Thought to Trade Conditions. Who are the Negro physicians, dentists, pharmacists, chiripodists, practicing among members of the race, deriving their support from the race, who give back to the race through the men and women engaged in business, that portion of their spending which goes for wares handled by Negro merchants? And, likewise, who are the Negro lawyers coming in the same category? Two weeks ago The Act propounded a question similar to the above to the Negro merchants of Harlem, but the ministers pastoring congregations of Negro churches were the ones referred to in that question. Their answer has been given. Since then the above question, relating to the doctors and lawyers, has been put to the same men, and this article purposes to give their answers as could be gotten. In the article relating to the ministers' nine names were placed on the roll of honor. Replies to the question concerning doctors and lawyers have given the names of fifteen doctors, including all matches of the profession, and eight servers. It would be interesting to then just what percentage of companies would be established as between doctors and ministers in proportion to the total number of each. Of the fifteen doctors whose names are given, two of them are named by three different merchants, seven are named by two different merchants, and eight are given as being customers of some one Negro merchant. This list does not include some names of doctors and lawyers which were in the first senior roll printed in THE ACE of August 17 and reproduced August 31. The merchants furnishing these names are engaged in various lines, including furniture, tailoring, groceries, haberdashery,achers, druggists, restaurants. The names given by these various The names given by these various merchants are as follows: Names of Doctors Dr WILLIAMS, 139th street. Dr M S. TURREER. Dr H M GRIFFIN. Dr A. B. GRAVES. Dr D W. ONLEY. Dr FRANK L. CHAMBERS. Dr IFO FITZ NEARON. Dr J B ANDERSON. Dr H C BLUE. Dr D IVISON HOAGE. Dr I R HILLERY. Dr W J CARTER. Dr F F RAWLINS. Dr YORK RUSSELL. Dr E W ROBERTS. Names of Lawyers PHILIP M. THORNE. S. F. EDMEAD. J. DOUGLASS WETMORE. J. FRANK WHEATON. JOHN WILLIAM SMITH. CHARLES G. SNEAD. FERDINAND Q. MORTON. NEWTON GRIGGS. Two names of doctors given in the annual list of honor are not included in the above roll—Dr. Gus, Henderson and Dr W. H. Johnson. For the lawyers, there are five names mentioned in this last roll which were on the original list, those omitted being Counselors E. A. Johnson, Louis A. Leaville Wilford H. Smith, James C. Thomas, Jr., and Robert Lewis Waring. It is to be understood that according to all the information which has been received in the course of this investigation these names belong on the roll of honor, along with those gotten more recently. Views of the Merchante. It is impossible to give the views of each individual merchant Interviewed, but a consensus of their opinions might be given to the effect that there is a decided increase in the amount of patience given to Negro merchants by members of the race. This applies not only to the professional men, but, perhaps more especially to the rank and position. That is, the masses of the people, one merchant puts it, are beginning to think and that thought process is increasing the people to see that the race merchant is not able to meet in fair competition the quality of trade supplied by the merchant of any other race, at the same prices, or he cannot be to continue in business. This being I being the case, the Negro mer- (continued on page two) VOTE FOR CHARLES S. WHITMAN FOR GOVERNOR WM. M. CALDER FOR U. S. SENATOR Primaries September 19, 3 to 9 p. m. C. W. ANDERSON OPENS A FINE MEAT MARKET. An establishment handling only the best of meats, with every sanitary safeguard provided, owned and conducted by a Negro, representing an initial outlay of several thousand dollars for fixtures alone, is what the race finds at 552 Lenox avenue, in the Victoria Apartment building, southeast corner of 138th street, with C. W. Anderson, who was formerly of the firm of Weaver & Anderson, 517 Lenox avenue, as the hustling and energetic proprietor. This place was opened very recently, and the race responded to Mr. Anderson's game and shrewd business endeavor by spending over his counters the first day more than $1,000. During the succeeding week, except on Friday, his receipts averaged more than $125 per day. And the business is holding up. This man believes in his race and he is reaping the fruit of that faith in the splendid patronage which he is receiving from them. And for once the Negro Harlemite is showing pride in a race effort. Every variety of meat is handled, with a line of fine fowls, and a fully equipped vegetable and fruit stand is conducted at the same place. Ample capital enables Mr. Anderson to buy his stock to advantage and so he is prepared to meet the prices of his competitors under all conditions and for all orders, large or small. He is a member of the Colored Business Men's Association. PYTHIANS PREPARING FOR SUPREME LODGE The Grand Lodge and Grand Court, K. of P., E. and W. H., Ways and Means Committee to entertain the Supreme Lodge and Supreme Court at its next biennial session, which will be held in Poughkeepsie, N. Y., August, 1917, held a very interesting meeting in one of the well-appointed rooms of The Lybia, West 131st street, Sunday afternoon, September 3, at 4 o'clock Representatives from all parts of the State were present, adding greatly to the peace and harmony which prevailed at the grand lodge and grand court sessions. The executive committee, on account of its size, was divided into sub-comittees for more effective work. E. B Harris, D. G. C, and Mrs. M. E. Johnson were appointed secretaries to the committee, and W. H. Willis, S. V. C., was appointed its treasurer. The advisory committee: R. E. Clarke, G. C.; John W. Fosburg, P. G; Wm. F. Bronaugh, S.

Colored men desirious of being appointed to the police force in Greater New York ought apply at once to the Civil Service Commission, Municipal Building, for the necessary blanks for examination and have same filled and filed with the Commission before September 26, when the time for filing application ends. FATHER AND SON FOR WILMOT SCHOOL WILMOT SCHOOLS 4 WILMOT, ARK. The board of education at a recent meeting elected as principal of the Wilmot colored public schools the Rev. E. Duke Washington, Sr., and as his assistant, E. Duke Washington, Jr. The elder Washington is a graduate of Alcorn College, Mississippi, and of the theological seminary of Wilberforce. CALDER'S CAREER AS LIFE-TIME REPUBLICAN DOES NOT DRAW COLOR LINE Lives in Brooklyn, where He was Born, but has Always Been Known as a Representative of All the People of Greater New York- Primaries to be Held Tuesday, September 19. William M. Calder, candidate for the Republican nomination for United States Senator from New York State, lives in Brooklyn, where he was born. In 1902-3, during the non-partisan administration of Mayor Low, Mr. Calder was chosen Commissioner of Buildings. This recognized qualifications for the place, appointment was made because of his and for no political association. In 1904, Calder was elected to Congress by the voters of his district, and for ten years subsequently he represented that district as a Republican. In the 1912 election he was the only Republican elected to any office in the southern part of the State. Mr. Calder's ten years of service in the House of Representatives were characterized by consistent and successful application of business methods and standards to legislative affairs. He ran his office in Washington as he conducted his business, and he did it on the theory that the people of his congressional district wanted and expected a business-like stewardship on the part of their representative. Generally speaking, his record as a representative stands for wise and progressive business legislation. He was of material advantage to the State of New York and the city of which he is a resident. Represented All the People. the persistence and industry which made Mr. Calder, a successful business man characterized his ten years of work as a representative in Congress. While he never sought to invade the field of any other representative, it is a fact that Mr. Calder came to be known in New York and in Washington as a general representative of that city. The calls made upon him for all sorts of services were never confined to his own district, but were from all parts of Greater New York. It was also a remarkable fact that they came from persons of all kinds of political beliefs. His character was never better portrayed than when, in 1914, after his defeat in the primaries, he filled the engagements of Mr. Wadsworth, who was compelled to leave the State because of illness in his family. On November 6, 1914, Senator Wadsworth wrote him: "When I had to retire from the firing line, you fought my battle for me; you must know that I am very grateful, and that I shall never forget it. Your friends in Brooklyn were certainly loyal, your own attitude set them the example." Mr. Calder has always been a strong advocate of the policies of Charles E. Hughes, the Republican nominee for President. In the recent National Convention, to which he was a delegate, Mr. Calder was one of Governor Hughes's most ardent supporters, and contributed materially to his nomination. He attends the Twelfth Street Reformed Church of Brooklyn, of which he is a member and one of the consistory. Mr. Calder is married and has two children. —He is a student of the problems of government, both domestic and international. —A consistent friend of the Negro, always approachable and does not draw the color line. —The only interests which he represents are the people's interests. —Be sure to give him your vote in the PRIMARIES to be held SEPTEMBER 19 from 3 to 9 p. m. —Put cross mark opposite the name of WILLIAM M. CALDER on the ballet. VIRGINIA BUSINESS MEN ISSUE BULLETIN (Special to Tue, New York, Apr.) (Special to THE NEW YORK ACE) NORFOLK, Va.—To promote the growth of Negro business enterprises, the Virginia State Negro Business League at its last session, held in this city, authorized the publication of a league bulletin and appointed a committee of four to supervise its publication. If C. Young, associate editor of the Norfolk Journal and Guide, R. E. Sanders of the V. N. and I. L. Petersburg, G. W. Blount and F. E. Puryear constitute the committee, and they have decided to issue semi-annually an illustrated magazine, the first number to appear in September. THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 14, 1916. Augusta, Me.-The Republican sweep carried Carl E. Milliken into the Governor's chair by a plurality of nearly 13,50. Late returns indicate that the Republican victory in Maine was more impressive than the most sanguine of the party leaders hoped for. In number of votes cast the balloting was a record. Almost 152,000 voters came to the polls. In 1912 it fell below 142,000. Indicated pluralities for the Republican candidates' other than Milliken were conformed by a revision of the count. The Republicans will have solid delegations in both branches of Congress, and will easily control both houses at the State Legislature. Milliken's Vote Grows Latest returns from 499 out of the 522 cities, towns and plantations and from soldiers in Texas gave: For Governor—Milliken (Rep.), 80,902; Curtis (Dem.), 67,395; For United States Senator—Hale (Rep.), 78,854; Fernald (Rep.), 80,191; Johnson (Dem.), 68,969; Sills (Dem.), 67,516. Complete returns for Representative in Congress from the 1st District give Goodall, 20,350; Stevens, 16,799. The 2nd District complete gives White 15,510, McGillicuddy, 18,880. There are a few districts yet to be heard from. These are outlying hamlets, and in some cases their official figures do not come in for three or four days after election. But even these belated figures are expected to show big Republican gains. In the state Legislature Franklin County completely reversed its Representatives in both houses, sending all Republicans to replace a solid Democratic delegation. Oxford County ousted five Democrats. In the cities, which two years ago went for Curtis, Democrat, by 6,000, there was this year but a scant plurality of fifty-three votes for Governor Curtis. VOTERS IN·ARKANSAS FORM HUGHES LEAGUE (Special to TWN New York Am.) LITTLE Rock, Ark.—Colored voters are called to form a Hughes and Fairbanks League by Dr. R. K. Williams, J. R. Booker and Scipio A. Jones, who have issued a circular announcing a meeting to be held here Tuesday, September 26, in the Mosaic Temple, at noon. The call is the result of an effort to fight that element of the party which fosters lily-whiteism at the Negro Republicans' expense. Consideration will be given the initiative measures and proposed amendments to the State Constitution to be voted on in November; to the candidacy of the so-called Republican nominee for Governor, and to plans for the support of Hughes and Fairbanks. Delegates are to be chosen in the counties and precincts of the State, and railroads have granted a rate of one fare and a half for the meeting. PRIMARY DAY—Tuesday, September 19, 3 to 9 p.m. NEGRO POULTRYMAN WINS COVETED PRIZE Louisiana, Ky. A prize coveted by poultrymen of all nations was won by Frank R. Willis, a Negro of this city, engaged in business as a contracting panter, who showd at the Kentucky State Fair a chicken of the Dark Cornish breed weighting fourteen pounds The heaviest Cornish chicken prior to the showing of Mt. Willis' bird weighed twelve pounds, and weight contests had been held at Boston, New York, Hagstown and at the Dairy Show, London, England. At the Kentucky State Fair 2,800 fowls were on exhibition, the best breeders in the country having pens of chickens on exhibition "Mohawk," the Cornish entered by Willis, was two and one-half pounds heavier than any bird in the contest. The palatability of the Dark Cornish as a table meat has caused the breeders to strive to produce birds equal in weight to the turkey. The fowl's symmetry of form and beautiful plumage make it a striking ornament to the chicken yard. Mr. Willis is a member of the American Cornish Club, composed of American and English breeders, and will have a large exhibit of birds at the 1916 Kentucky State Fair, which is held this month. (Special to THE NEW YORK ACE) PHILADELPHIA, PA - Twenty-five hundred New York working grain elevator being erected at Girard Point by the Pennsylvania Railroad. This will be the largest grain elevator in the world. Unskilled labor is being paid wages ranging from $1.50 to $2.50 per day. WELL KNOWN BATH (Special to The New York Am.) Sr. Louis, Mo.-Henry Williams, who died recently at his late home, 4059 Cook avenue, was one of the city's oldest and most respected Negro citizens; and was probably the best known bath attendant in this section of the country. He had been employed for years at the Southern Hotel bath house and came in contact with the leading men of the country. He was 68 years old. or men who have some knowledge of this work wanted at once to go to Massachusetts Permanent work.

STRONG RESOLUTIONS PASSED While Cobred Democrats of New York State Want to Conduct Vigorous Campaign They Find Themselves Embarrassed by Wilson's. Record—Negroes Not Enthusiastic for Wilson as Four Years Ago. 'Special to THE NEW YORK ACK. BUFFALO, N. Y. — The anti-Negro policy of President Wilson and the Democratic Administration at Washington was strongly denounced at a meeting of colored Democrats held here last week. Resolutions were passed condemning the segregation of Negroes in Governmental departments and the failure of President Wilson to appoint competed colored men to prominent positions. Although the meeting was well attended, representatives being present from the various sections of the State, there was no enthusiasm. Everybody admitted that President Wilson's unfriendly attitude toward the Negro had not made him supporters among the colored voters of the country. "Despite the discouraging prospects ahead, however, the colored Democrats of New York State plan to conduct a vigorous campaign this fall. At last week's meeting an organization was formed, to be known as the Colored Democratic League of New York State, and the following officers were chosen to serve for two years: James A. Ross, Buffalo, chairman; the Fev. J. R. White, New York, vice-chairman; John Morris, New York, treasurer; E. W. Duke, Buffalo, secretary; John McNeil, New York, assistant secretary; F. C. Morton, New York, chairman Advisory Committee; Rufus L. Perry, Brooklyn, chairman Executive Committee; W. Derrory-Buffalo, chairman of Committee on Organization; W. F. White, Rochester, chairman of Field Agents; S. Lark, Brooklyn, chairman Speakers' Bureau; Charles W. Lett, New York, sergeant-at-arms. The speakers openly confessed that prospects for a Democratic victory were not as bright as four years ago, and that hundreds of colored voters who were enthusiastic Wilson men in 1912 are to-day opposed to his election. COLORED DEMOCRATS GET ON THE PAYROLL. Colored Democrats, the few that are left, are going to make some sort of an effort to interest colored voters in President Wilson's behalf during the present campaign, but they have entered upon their task under most discouraging conditions. Under the direction of the National Colored Democratic League, A. E. Patterson, president, and Thomas Wallace Swann, secretary, headquarters were opened this week in New York and Chicago. Patterson, it will be remembered, voluntarily tendered his resignation as Register of the Treasury after having been named by President Wilson. The Eastern Branch of the National Colored Democratic League is located at 110 West 131st street Sixteen persons are on the payroll. The Western Branch is at 3100 State street In Chicago ten are drawing salary and yelling for Wilson. The money feature seems to be the principal incentive this year. Democratic workers know there are no political plums for colored men even in the event of Wilson's re-election. NEW HAMPSHIRE B. E. Mays, a young Negro who finished the normal course at the State College, Orangeburgh, S. C., will not be allowed to enter Holderness School, Plymouth, N. H., where he hoped to spend a year in preparing for Harvard, because he is a Negro. Young Mays came to New York after graduating from the South Carolina School and went to work to secure funds to continue his education. Learning of the high standard of the curriculum at Holderness, he wrote the principal, asking the privilege of enrolling. The following is the text of the reply from the principal, in which this school, located in rock-ribbed New England, is shown to be closed to members of the Negro race: Plymouth, N. H., July 31, 1916. Mr. B. E. Mays. New York City. My dear sir: I wish I could help your laudable desire to get an education from the Eastern universities, but if I should admit a boy of your race to Holderness School we would lose several students, so that I am obliged to decline to receive you. CHICAGO BOYS GO (Special to The New York Am.) Citigroup, Ill.-Arthur Scurlock, 6033 St. Lawrence avenue, and McKinley Emanuel, 6350 Rhodes avenue, have gone to South America to enter business. Scurlock will open an electrical supply house and Emanuel will have charge of a branch of the Emanuel Scientific Chiriodory Co. Scurlock was wireless operator on a British steamer returning from Liverpool last year which had a thrilling escape from a German submarine. SEGREGATION, ORDER HAS BEEN REVOKED Special to The New York Am WASHINGTON, D. C. The order of August 9, issued by Col. William W. Hart, superintendent of the State, War and Navy Departments Building, setting aside certain lavatories for the use of colored men, was recalled September 9. No reasons for said action are given. The hundreds of employees affected by the segregation are, by virtue of the revocation, now classed as citizens of the United States, so far as public convenience is concerned. The colored employees are asking one another why a disciplinarian reformer of the Hart caliber, should inaugurate, an unprecedented "racial setback" and rescind exactly one year月 later. The destruction of the order was not caused by rank Southerners of the Hart type, because it has been openly boasted of by several of them that they were instrumental in effecting the "Jim Crowism." It is authoritatively stated that certain high officials, Senators and Representatives have registered protests which reached the Executive Office, and when one is mindful of the present hour as compared with the political situation, it is apparent that "some one" who is in a position to advise the superintendent has intimated that this is not the psychological time to incite race prejudice. Regardless of the source of the pressure brought to bear, the pill is a bitter one for the Colonel to swallow. In this connection, it is only fair to say that the news article on this subject which appeared in THE AGE of August 10 was, in a great measure, responsible for the hasty recall of the discriminatory order. In the meantime, however, segregation orders issued for the Treasury and Postoffice Departments have not been revoked, nor is there any indication that they will be, and in this light it appears that the foolish fellows who proposed a mass meeting to be held at the 19th Street Baptist-Church for the purpose of making speeches and drafting resolutions of thanks to members of Congress supposed to be instrumental in bringing about the rescinding of this order would better turn their efforts toward arousing congressional indignation against the Treasury and Postoffice heads. The effort of Senators Lewis, Pomerene, Martine and others is worthy of appreciation as the performance of a duty—no more, no less. The Senators themselves want no thanks from a bunch of Federal employees in the District of Columbia. UNDUE INFLUENCE OVER A WHITE MAN. (Special to TW, New York, Acr.) (Special to The New York Anz.) Baltimore, Md.-An attempt to keep a colored-man in the House of Correction for a year for "alleged acts of an induce influence over a white man" was frustrated last Friday, when Judge Dawkins of the City Court released John Fisher from custody on a writ of habeas corpus, sued out by Attorney George L. Pendleton. Fisher, who had been a farm hand employed by Frank Johnson of Somerset county, was arrested on August 23, charged by Mollie Johnson, the employer's wife, with exercising undue influence over her husband. Johnson was arrested at the same time on a charge of alleged disturbance of the peace made by his wife. He was taken to Princess Anne, Md., where he was tried later, thus preventing him from appearing in behalf of Fisher, who was tried and sentenced at Crisfield Johnson was acquitted. The men were kept out rather late sometimes by their farm work, they sometimes ate at the same table; and they both belonged to the same religious sect, the Church of Bethlehem. Mrs Fisher, it is said, thought Johnson might meddle in her affairs as the two men were somewhat friendly. It is said that suits may be entered against those responsible for Fisher's arrest and incarceration. White people paid Fisher's lawyer. ANOTHER DREXEL GIRP (Special to THE NEW YORK ACK) PHILADELPHIA, Pa.—Another of the wealthy and famous Drexel girls has entered a Catholic sisterhood and is devoting her services and money to the education of Negro children. Miss Inez Drexel Dahlgren took the white veil in August and is now known as Sister Mary Lucia at the Convent of the Blessed Sacrament at Cornwells, of which Miss Katherine Drexel, her relative who took the vows in 1899, is mother superior and founder. Her work is with the Negro orphanage connected with the convent, and she has become one of its most ardent workers. She is 22 years old, the oldest of the six daughters-ofMr. and Mrs. Eric B Dahlgren. Her mother inherited $20,000,000 on the death of the late Joseph Drexel, the novice-s grandfather, a few years ago. Miss Drexel spent a year in preparatory work and study, and will take the dark veil, which means remaining in the convent for life, after two years of noviate. She plans to do active missionary work as a teacher among the Negroes and Indians in one of the convent missions. TUSKEGEE INSTITUTE (Special to The New York Ank) Tuskegee Institute, Ala.—Tuskegee Institute entered into its new scholastic year Tuesday under most favorable conditions and with a new principal, Dr. Robert R. Moton, who was unanimously chosen by the Board of Trustees to fill the place made vacant by the death of Dr. Booker T. Washington. This year's enrollment is large, and every indication points to a successful year. The New York Age IS RELIABLE WHEN YOU SEE IT IN "THE AGE" YOU CAN DEPEND UPON IT.

INDUSTRIAL OPPORTUNITY Directs Attention of the Members of Convention to the Opportunities Along Industrial Lines Now Opening Up in Sections that Have Heretofore Been Closed to Negro Workmen. Special to THE NEW YORK ACK SAVANNAH, GA.—The session of that part of the National Baptist Convention which is antagonistic to the Boyd interests and which is presided over by Dr. E. C. Morris of Arkansas opened here in the First African Baptist Church, Franklinlyn on Wednesday morning, September 6, at 10 o'clock. It is estimated that about 2,000 people were present, including ministers, laymen, women of the auxiliaries and sightseers. Much interest centered in that part of the president's annual address on Thursday morning in which he treated of the suit to recover possession of the publishing house plant at Nashville. President Morris advised careful consideration before taking any step looking toward pushing the suit because of the financial conditions prevailing. Following this address the convention proceeded to the election of officers, with the following results: Officers Elected. Tire Rev. E. C. Morris, Arkansas, reelected president by acclamation; W. G. Parks, Philadelphia, vice-president at large; Prof. R. H. Budson, Selma, Ala.; secretary; E. Arlington Wilson, Muskegon, Okla. T. O. Fuller, Memphis, Tenn. K. H. McDonald, St. Paul, Mnm. J. M. Nabrft, Georgia, assistant secretaries; A. J. Stokes, Alabama, treasurer; C. H. Harris, Louisville, Ky., statistical secretary; Prof. M. M. Rodgers, Dallas, Tex.; auditor; T. J. Ewing, Nashville, Tenn., and W. J. Latham, Jackson, Miss., attorneys. The main feature of the session was the address on Friday evening by Major Robert Russa Moton, principal of Tuskegee Institute. For a number of years it was the custom of the late Dr. Washington, Major Moton's predecessor, to be present at the sessions of the National Baptist Convention and deliver an address. In his address to this part of the great body of Baptists, Major Moton made a powerful appeal to the Baptists of America for greater religious sincerity and race unity. He spoke in part as follows: Major Moton's Address. I want, first of all, to congratulate the real leaders of the Negro race in America, the Gospel ministers. Whatever may be said about the business men and the educators being the leaders of the leaders of the Negro people, as yet the Negro leader is the Negro preacher. It is quite proper that we should turn our thoughts this evening to the one who, we he living, would be occupying this platform at this hour. He would, in epigrammatic sentences and phrases and with an earnestness and sincerity and with an enthusiasm born of conviction, encourage and inspire this magnificent gathering of Christian workers as only he could. Let us, therefore, think together for a while on some of the great lessons that our great leader and teacher would emphasize. First, he would seek, no doubt, to deepen our own faith in and heighten our respect for the Negro race. He would strive to strengthen our faith and belief, also, in the white race by which side we live, whose language and customs we seek to copy, whose highest ideals and aspirations we admire and are striving, as never before, to follow. He would want to deepen our faith and belief in all humanity, whether found on a white, brown or black skin. Dr. Washington a Man of Faith. I am very sure he would desire that we should have greater and more genuinely abiding faith in the religion of Jesus Christ. He would seek further to strengthen our faith in God. Few men in all the world's history have lived out and worked out more fully and completely these three fundamental elements in their daily life than he did. Dr. Washington's own life was in a very real sense the embodiment of the ideas and the ideals which are so necessary in the life of our own people or in the life of all peoples. He was truly a man of faith and of vision. His name might insist and reverently, too, he added to the roll of honor which St. Paul gives in the 11th chapter of Hebrews. By faith he struggled with his kindly, though backward, jealous and suspicious race. By faith he accomplished mighty works in education and in Christian service through the kindness of Southern white people and the generosity of Northern white people. By faith he was able to build the great Tuskegee institute not only to serve the black race, but the white man as well; not ASA SENG YRS LET RR AGES UTR ROOST a Coe LE SR oe OR COCO tr ee RRO R TS 8.

The election in Maine gives proof of a reunited party and points to an overwhelming victory in November. The whole straight Republican ticket went through; a governor, two senators, four congressmen (Maine's entire representation, the legislature, and the local offices. Counties which have heretofore always gone Democratic fell into the Republican column. The town of Gray elected a Republican to the State House of Representatives for the first time in twenty years. The hardest blow to the Wilson Administration was the defeat of Charles F. Johnson, the Democratic representative of Maine in the U. S. Senate. Had Johnson been elected, the Democrats could have drawn some comfort out of the sweeping defeat. In 1912 the Republican vote cast in Maine was 26,545 and the Progressive vote was 48,493, a combined vote of 75,038. In Monday's election the combined Republican and Progressive vote was 80,902, with forty districts to be heard from Woodrow Wilson and the sectional brand of Democracy which has ruled at Washington for the past three and a half years are doomed to defeat. THE AMENIA CONFERENCE The Amenia Conference was, in all respects, one of the most notable gatherings that has taken place in this country. The men and women who met and discussed the vital questions confronting the race were governed by a remarkable strength, breadth and height of purpose. The Conference marks an epoch. It marks the birth of a new spirit of united purpose and effort that will have far-reaching results. Dr. Spingarn deserves the greatest credit for the interest and wisdom that prompted him to initiate the movement. MORSE'S CONTRIBUTION. MORSE'S CONTRIBUTION. Charles W. Morse, President of the Hudson Navigation Company, announced last week that he had refused a request to contribute to the Republican national campaign fund. He gave out a letter stating his refusal and in which he declared that, although a life-long Republican, he intended to support Woodrow Wilson. Let us see, this is the same Charles W. Morse who several years ago was sentenced to serve a term of years in the Federal prison at Atlanta, and was pardoned by President Taft so that he might have the privilege of dying as a free man and a citizen. Had it not been for the action of a Republican president, Mr Morse might have been dead; it is certain, at least, that he would not have the privilege of casting a vote. It appears that the smallest degree of gratitude would impel him to contribute to the Republican campaign fund for life, and to make arrangements for quadrennial contribution after his death. THE NEW YORK AGE, THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 14, 1916. VIEWS and REVIEWS JAMES W. JOHNSON. CONTRIBUTING EDITOR WILSON AND LINCOLN. We quote from an editorial in The Globe, on the speech made by President Wilson at the dedication of the hut in which Abraham Lincoln was born, the following paragraph: Yet admiring the speech as one must, approving its spirit, and applauding its magnificent indorsement and vindication of democracy, it is nevertheless to be set down that if Abraham Lincoln and Woodrow Wilson had been alive at the same time the latter would have been no supporter of the former—on the contrary, would have been a steady opponent. One is warranted in this belief not only because President Wilson's father was a malignant upholder of slavery, or because he has himself made argument in favor of states' rights, but because, facing the practical issues of his time, he has followed policies fundamentally opposed to those, of the great emancipator. Abraham Lincoln was a real democrat. Wood- row Wilson is not, for he is entirely complaisant toward the mock that is made of democracy in the states where he expects to derive his chief electoral support. Lincoln's heart and mind were troubled by perceiving that equality of right did not exist in this country. He saw men as men, not as white men or black men. It Mr. Wilson has been similarly troubled he has kept the fact secret. Since he has been president, by bell, book and candle his administration has searched for opportunity to apply further the color line. The Globe speaks the plain truth. Wilson might make a good speech on Lincoln, but, in qualities, he is the direct antihesis of the great emancipator. The supreme greatness in Lincoln rests upon this: He felt for the oppressed, and put what he felt into effective action; he sought to find out what was right, and gave his life to put what was right into execution. On the contrary, Wilson fills the air with empty words about "humanity," and expresses great concern over the condition of the oppressed in Mexico, while in the meantime, he does not raise his finger to lighten the burden of the oppressed in the United States; no, he places his own heel upon their necks. Shortly after his election, some of his admirers proclaimed him a second Lincoln; we repeat: he is not even a second-class Lincoln. The editorial in The Globe concluded with this paragraph: President Wilson's hope of re-election is no greater than his hope that he will receive the support of a section of the country where no pretense is made of respect for so modest a democratic proposal as equality of manhood suffrage. He is the favorite of those who do not believe in democracy and never have, and who openly flout sections of the constitution that are supposed to forbid suffrage discriminations on account of race or color. We wish to say again that whenever The Globe has occasion to speak on human rights it never swerves from the straight line of equal justice to black and white. TILLMAN'S CREED Mr. Jos. L. Jones, Executive Chairman of the Association, wrote a letter to Ben and what he thought to be the latter's aid by a speech recently made on the Senate received a reply from the Senator. August 10, 1916 Rich and Plum, Cincinnati, Ohio. Saying to yours of August 8th, it is what is to be found and self respecting Negro. That there be found is very lamentable. I do not know where that all Negroes are venal, but I do know there are very few Negroes that are not vile race, with whom I come in contact in S. based and worthless than they were just to be a great deterioration among them as better are concerned. They are less reliable, ever degenerate. It is a pity it is so, but we have always pled for justice for the Negro and happiness are concerned, but very few should have any proper qualifications for vow never have been given to them. They should learn it by uplift, which education and prop now that many Negroes are better qualified men, especially the foreigners who are bribes. It is the illiterate and ignorant that is in our political life. The educated scoundrel, very numerous. I have never said 'we will die believing that the Caucasian is that God has created, and the history of Some weeks ago, Mr. Los L. Jones, Executive Chairman of the National Negro Press Association, wrote a letter to Ben Tillman commending him upon what he thought to be the latter's change of heart, as evidenced by a speech recently made on the floor of the Senate. Mr. Jones received a reply from the Senator, which reads as follows: August 10, 1916. J. L. Jones, Esq., 8th and Plum, Cincinnati, Ohio. Dear Sir:—Replying to yours of August 8th, it is what is to be expected of an educated and self respecting Negro. That there are so few of those to be found is very lamentable. I do not know of any propaganda anywhere that all Negroes are venal, but I do know from experience that there are very few Negroes that are not venal. The members of the race, with whom I come in contact in South Carolina are more debased and worthless than they were just after the war. There has been a great deterioration among them as far as morals and character are concerned. They are less reliable, less honest, and altogether degenerate. It is a pity it is so, but it is true nevertheless. I have always pled for justice for the Negroes as far as life, liberty and happiness are concerned, but very few of them that I know should have any proper qualifications for voting, and the ballot should never have been given to them. They should have been made to earn it by uplift, which education and property alone can bring. I know that many Negroes are better qualified to vote than many white men, especially the foreigners who are being admitted to our shores. It is the illiterate and ignorant that are doing the most harm in our political life. The educated scoundrels and rascals are very, very numerous. I have never said, "color was a crime," but I will die believing that the Caucasian is the highest type of man that God has created, and the history of the world shows it. Very sincerely, (Signed) B. R. TILLMAN, not be worth our time or the patience, this letter solely as an excuse for a letter is worth the space we give it, the role of the inconsistencies and wilful ign Now, it would not be worth our time or the patience of our readers to reproduce this letter solely as an excuse for abusing Ben Tillman. But the letter is worth the space we give it, because it is so clear an example of the inconsistencies and wilful ignorance upon which prejudice is based. He says, "the members of the race with whom I come in contact in South Carolina are more debased and worthless than they were just after the war. There has been a great deterioration among them so far as morals and character are concerned. They are less reliable, less honest, and altogether degenerate." If this is the only class of Negroes in South Carolina with which Senator Tillman comes in contact, whose fault is it but his own? Why does he not seek to learn something about the better class of colored people in his state? The fact that he knows only debased and worthless Negroes gives him no reason or right to brand the whole race. We take no risk in saying that among the many thousands of decent, respectable, well-to-do colored people in South Carolina, Ben Tillman does not know one dozen families. And what is more, he has no inclination to know them or anything about them. It is always so with prejudiced minds. Yet on this point, we may not be entirely fair with Tillman: it is possible that he is not intimately acquainted with very many of the best white families of South Carolina. --- He goes on to say, "I have always pled for justice for the Negroes as far as life, liberty and happiness are concerned." Has Tillman forgotten with what force and fervor he pronounced his shotgun policy in the Senate? And we should like to ask, what does he consider to be the measure of happiness for a Negro? Doubtless, he feels that a plenty to eat, a place to sleep and clothes enough to wear constitute happiness beyond which it would be absurd for a Negro to dream. The Senator further says that the ballot should never have been given to Negroes, that they should have been made to earn it by uplift. We should like to have Tillman's estimate of how much lifting up the Negroes would have to do to satisfy him and men of his kind. In his very next sentence he says, "I know that many Negroes are better qualified to vote than many white men"; and yet, he is opposed to these better qualified Negroes being allowed to vote in South Carolina. In fact, the more lifting up the Negroes do, the less satisfied is Ben Tillman. The truth is, the only kind of Negroes that Pitchfork Ben can tolerate is the debased and worthless class to which he limits his contact with the race. The Senator concludes, by summing up his creed in these words: "I will die believing that the Caucasian is the highest type of man that God has created, and the history of the world shows it." Tillman may be sincere in his belief, but he is off on his history. If he will study history, he will learn that less than three thousand years ago the race to which he belongs was a horde of hairy, skin-clad savages, just about on a level with the Indians at the time of the discovery of America; at the same time, peoples whom the Senator would class as inferior were developing the arts and sciences. The most preposterous thing in history is this pretension of the Anglo-Saxon to being the originator of human civilization. Civilization was not born on the banks of the Rhine; it was born in the valley of the Nile. When the black Egyptian was forming a system of letters, founding the principles of government, discovering the truths of religion, and studying the laws of the stars, the Anglo-Saxon was crouched in his gloomy cave, munching on a raw bone and grunting, the same as any other animal. From history, Senator Tillman may learn that racial supremacy is nothing more than a succession of dates; the Anglo-Saxon is now enjoying his period. And let this thought disturb the belief in which old Pitchfolk expects to die: This succession of dates moves in a circle, as all things else in the universe. We cut this short by saying that a study of all of Ben Tillman's qualities as a human being leads us to conclude that if, for the sake of argument, we grant that the Caucasian is the highest type of man that God has created, we are compelled by that same reasoning to hold that Pitchfork Ben is not the highest type of Caucasian. REMEMBER THE PRIMARIES. We urge upon all enrolled voters in the State to bear in mind the importance of the primary election to be held on Tuesday of next week. Cast your vote for Charles S. Whitman, whose administration has been one of the best that New York State ever had, and who is showing his friendship in a most satisfactory way to us as a race. You will make no mistake by giving him your vote in the primaries, as that is almost as important as the election in November. Whitman should receive an overwhelming primary vote. Judge Harry E. Lewis, the present District Attorney of Brooklyn, will be the Republican nominee for that office at the polls in November. In the primaries, to be held September 19, he is seeking the support of the Progressives and is deserving of their votes. Judge Lewis has in his employ a colored man who is rated as one of the most efficient stenographers in the District Attorney's office. He believes in the appointment of members of all races to positions of responsibility, his chief requirement being competency. WHAT THE PEOPLE SAY THE AGE AND NEGRO LEADERS TO the Editor of The Age: I take this method to thank you for the service you are rendering our people all over this country. You are no doubt very conscious of the thing I speak of. Since May 10 I have had a chance to be in Washington, Philadelphia, Pittsburgh, St. Louis, Detroit and Chicago. I have had a good opportunity to observe the necessity of concentration on the part of Negro leadership to better our conditions. While we are making progress along many lines in every community, there is a wonderful amount of good we can do by studying these problems and adjusting ourselves to them in an honest and definite way. I do not know of any journal which is read by the people of our race—and by many others, as for that—which seems to hammer away each week to keep the leadership of the race working along a sane and conservative line that will bring the best results to our, people as does Titty New York Age. Your reference to the various grades and classes coming from the South to the North, for better wages and better conditions, and the various objects that are in their minds, and how our preachers must seek to save that unwise class, is most commendable and unselfish in you. Remember, they who unselfishly give themselves for the benefit and happiness of others towards building them up in things of purity, intelligence and economics will receive their pay in that which outlasts bronze or marble. I have great faith in your honesty, uprightness and in bettering the condition of the Negro race, and I pray God's blessing for your success. "How long did your last cook stay with you?" "Oh, about five hours." "How did tint happen?"

Whitman at the annual meeting of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, February 12, 1915, in which the Chief Executive of the State of New York gave his views on the race question: "Discrimination against any race or class or creed must in the end injure all. We are one people in New York. We have a common duty and a common destiny. The rights of the weaker must be guarded and protected by the stronger, and the sacred privileges of American citizenship must be denied to none." "In the gain or loss of one race all the rest have equal claim. Dr. Just has made the most of the opportunities offered to the boys of our land, white and black. His success is a reason for gratification to every loyal American, demonstrating as it does the possibilities, with opportunity, of a race which in years gone by has suffered so cruelly at the hands of the white man. A race whose members ask nothing more than that the fundamental law of the nation as set forth in its constitution shall be enforced throughout every portion of the land over which floats her flag." "The success of this young man has been called a lesson to the Negroes of this nation, and so it is. It is just as truly a lesson to the white man o the nation. His rights are dear to him, but unless we are going to concede that American institutions are wrong, and that the framers of the Federal Constitution and Federal laws are wrong, his rights should be just as dear to us as they are to him."

C., last week attending the Grand Lodge of Eastern Star. The Rev. L. W. Calloway of Selma, Ala., was the guest of the Rev. and Mrs. W. T. Coleman last week. Mr. Calloway preached to the congregation of Tupper Memorial Church twice last Sunday. Miss Minnie E. Peace returned to Cincinnati, Ohio, to resume her work as teacher in the public schools, of that city. Misses Margaret Coleman and Nannie Perry have returned to the city from a pleasant visit to friends in Danville, Va. C. W. Hoover has gone to Baltimore and other northern cities to buy his fall and winter goods. Mrs. Phyllis Battle of Cheron, S. C. was in the city last week as the guest of her brother, Paul W. Wood. Mrs. W. H. Locklear was called by wire and left the city last Saturday en route to Richmond, Va. to be present at the burial of her late brother, C. H. Lewis, who died September 6. The several Masonic lodges in this city held a banquet in the Masonic Temple last Friday night. Mrs. F. W. Sims, principal of the Peabody School at Troy, N. C., was a guest of Mrs. Haywood, Worth street, last week. William Curtis, who has seen ill in St. Agnes Hospital during the past six months, has recovered and attended the 11 o'clock service at St. Ambrose P. E. Church last Sunday.

Mrs. Annie Groves Perkerson, a graduate nurse from St. Agnes Hospital, has been appointed at district nurse for the colored people of this city. Mrs. Parkerson began her work September 1 under the supervision of the Associated Charities at a salary of $600 per annum. An auxiliary board of charities composed of seven colored citizens was organized and co-operates with the Board of Associated Charities in its work among the colored poor of the city. This auxiliary board pays one-half of the salary of the district nurse. The members of this board are Col. Jas. H. Young, chairman; T. L. McCoy, secretary; J. M. Higgs, Dr. J. T. Worthham, Ed Tate, Britton Pearco and C. E. Lightner. Voluntary contributions from the colored citizens are desired to carry on this work. Many individuals, societies and churches have contributed to aid this work, and it is hoped and expected that all the societies churches, colored citizens, men and women, will call on the secretary and make known to him the amount they will contribute toward the support of this very necessary charity for the poor. This colored organization is perhaps the only one in this State working in conjunction with the white board of charities. If it succeeds, much credit should be given to Mayor James T. Johnson. Thinking that it may be of interest to the public to know who is in this city, from a business and professional standpoint among the colored people, your correspondent here gives the name: Barbers. C. A. Walker, assisted by John J. Williams, O. C. S. Spivey and M. L. Haywood. By reason of his splendid location, up-to-date equipment and high-class workmen, he is admittedly the leading proprietor of a shop where Negroes can have tonsorial work done. Next is Jesse Braan; assisted by A. D. Stroud, Romulus Mongum, William Hodge and the Rev. Jolley. Mr. Bra an keeps a neat shop and good workmen and has twenty years' experience in the business. Others are W. H. Perry, C. H. Young and Joshua Jones. There is noticeable improvement along the lines of cleanliness in many of the barber shops conducted for Negro patronage, but there is room for more improvement. Barber shops and restaurants should be kept spotlessly Drug Store Capt. J. E. Homlin, assisted by his son, V. C. Homlin, druggist, is proprietor of two well-stocked and neatly kept drug stores. The Malett Drug Co. is managed by W. L. Jones, druggist. L. A. Shade's drug store, managed by I. A. Shade, druggist; Love Bros. Drug Co., managed by J. H. Love, druggist. The drug stores conducted by Negroes compare favorably with white men's plains in so far as neatness goes. Dry Goods Stores. C. W. Hoover is the only colored proprietor of a dry goods store in this city. It is with commendable pride we speak of this dry goods store because of the heavy stock he carries and the general neat appearance of everything connected with this store. Mr. Hoover said to us: "I wish someone will impart to me the secret how to get colored people to patronize my store and buy my goods. I buy from the same market that my white, brethren buy, and I sell as cheap as they do." Restaurants Ideal, Capt. J. E. Honilin, proprietor. This establishment is an exception to the general run of Negro restaurants in that it is kept neat and clean. Meals are served on the American or European plan. Anything that the market affords can be had, on short notice—and the waiters are polite and attentive to patrons. The Reliable Cafe, Hodge & Leak, proprietors. Mr. J. L. Lloyd's restaurant Grocery Stores D. P. Lone, Joe Mills, J. M. Whit-taker, the Rev. S. S. Barbour, Frank Lewis, H. S. Christmas, A. L. Hartsoild, M.

STUDENTS MADE GOOD IN THE TOBACCO FIELDS Connecticut Tobacco Growers are Pleased with Work of the College Baya. PLAN TO USE THEM NEXT YEAR Association Writes Letter to National League on Urban Conditions 'Among Negroes, which Secured the Student Labor, Expressing Satisfaction and Appreciation. Special to THE NEW YORK ACE HARTFORD, CONN. The five hundred students from southern colleges who have been employed during the past summer in the tobacco fields in this region have more than made good. Their employment, tried by the planters as an experiment in their expremity because of the shortage of labor, solved the labor problem from an economic standpoint, and at the same time it has served to give the white people of this section of the country an insight into the character and development of the Negro race which they could have secured in no other way. The Connecticut Leaf Tobacco Association has in its membership practically every tobacco grower in the Hartford Valley, and these were the men who employed the colored boys in the tobacco fields. It was through the office of the National League on Urban Conditions Among Negroes of New York City that these students were employed, and John T. Clark, in charge of the industrial work of that organization, worked in co-operation with the tobacco growers in securing the student labor. Tobacco Growers Send Letter. In commendation of the work of the students and in appreciation of the assistance rendered by the National Urban League, the Tobacco Growers' Association has sent the following letter to the league, showing not 'only satisfaction with the present season's results, but also that plans are being laid to use the college student labor next year. The letter is as follows: Gentlemen: I am glad to be able to write that upon every plantation where the colored students are now employed they are giving satisfaction, and plans are being made for their return to Connecticut at the end of the school term next season. These boys have proven to be efficient and conscientious workers, and they have won the approval of both the planters they have been working for and the members of the different communities in which they have lived. I believe it to be the duty of the Association to send some letters of appreciation, to the National League on Urban Conditions Among Negroes for their efforts in this movement and at the same time to mention the efficient and able manner in which they have handled this proposition. Very truly yours. Connecticut Leaf Tobacco Association. NEWS OF THE CHURCHES Mother Zion Notes.

An event in the musical life of Brooklyn toward which toks are looking with much interest is the forthcoming appearance in concert of Harry T. Burleigh, announced for the 5th of October at the Fleet Street Memorial A. M. E. Zion Church, located on Bridge street, near Myrtle avenue. If I were allowed any voice in the making of the program, my suggestion would be that Mr. Burleigh confine his numbers entirely to the songs of his own composing. For one thing, his songs, especially the recent ones, are all of an unusual character. Their degree of difficulty places them out of the scope of most of the amateur.singers of the race, consequently, as these amateur singers are the only ones that are heard by the majority of the people of the race, it is seldom that the people have an opportunity to hear the compositions of this man who in the realm of music is no longer a mediocrity. Personally, I'd be glad of an opportunity to hear Mr. Burleigh interpret a number of his more recent songs, notable among which are "The Young Warrior," (the words to which, by the way, were written by my confere on THE AGE, James Weldon Johnson, contributing editor); "The Soldier," one of his latest works; the "Kashmiri Song," "Worth While" and "Among the Fuchsias," his group of Saracen Songs; "Her Eyes Twin Pools" and "The Glory of the Day was in Her Face," from his Passionale, these words also by Mr. Johnson Of course, there are many others I'd gladly hear, and it is a fixed conviction in my mind that Mr. Burleigh would be doing some splendid educative work if he were to give his audience a chance to hear these and others of his own compositions. Melville Charlton is to play the accompaniments. To the initiated, the simple announcement is sufficient. For the ability of Mr. Charlton as an accompanist is one of the known and established things in the musical circles of New York—and not only in New York, but throughout all of the East. For his work attracts the most critical favor wherever he is heard. It deserves it, too, for Charlton's art has a solid foundation. He has studied long and hard, very young man though he is, and what he has won of a musical reputation has come as the result of constant development of an exceeding talent. Already he is the possessor of musical honors that many strive for until the noar frost of years has crowned their heads, and it was only a few months ago that he won, under the most rigid and severe conditions, the right to enter the portals of the American Guild of Organists as an Associate. He is now in that select class of musicians who are authorized to attach to their names the distinguished Letters A. A. G. O. And he is the only colored man I can recall at this moment who does possess this very high musical honor. Mme DeKnight and Charles Waters are announced as assisting artists, "with others." It is to be hoped that the phrase, "with others," does not mean that the program is to be filled up with a lot of amateurs whose efforts will be willing, but woeful, and whose only gain will be the chance to say that they have "sung with Burleigh" Charlie Waters is a talented singer whose efforts are usually pleasing. I am always glad to hear him. It is impossible to speak personally of Mme DeKnight, not having heard her. Edward F. Thompson is in charge of the band of the new Negro regiment, the 15th, which is to be incorporated into the New York National Guard. Just what the band is doing I have had no opportunity to hear, but Mr. Thompson's work deserves some notice. When there is sufficient leeway in the tide of duties which flood me it is intended to give some details of his accomplishment. Recently there came in my mail a note from a young woman in this city who has achieved a high place in the musical world as an interpretative artist. In her note she referred to the work Mr. Thompson is doing. As she has been associated in her musical work with conditions that give her a personal knowledge, and as I have a high opinion of her opinion, some of the things she said in her note are herewith repeated. Speaking of the band recital given at Manhattan Casino during the summer by Mr. Thompson and his band of seventy musicians, she said: "Enclosed find a clipping from The Musical Courrier mentioning the concert given at Manhattan Casino by E. Thompson and his band. I notice that you have been giving space to comments made about the various colored musicians in musical journals, and I am sure there is no man deserving of mention of this kind more so than Mr. Thompson. This man has musical ideals and for years has worked toward that end. I do regret that you were not present, not from a newspaper standpoint, but from the music enjoyment you would have gotten out of it. There has never been a concert given by any of these musicians here that has been such an artistic affair from start to finish "Mr. Thompson gave a program that would have done credit to any concert place downtown where we are in the habit of going. He proved himself a master in conducting and training a band." I am sure Mr. Thompson must have deserved these words of praise from this critical young lady or she would not have written them. The first chance that offers I will learn more at first hand of his work. The clipping from The Musical Courier, referred to above, is as follows: "A unique concert was given at Manhattan Casino, New York, by E. E. Thompson and his band of seventy musicians. The two special features on the program were numbers played by sixteen trombones and a quartet of French horns with flute obligato Mr. Thompson deserves much praise for having brought this band to so high a degree of musical development. His interpretation of the works deserved the enthusiastic applause bestowed upon him and the members of the band." THEATRICAL JOTTINGS Salem Tutt Whitney and J.

The New Lincoln Theatre in its brand new Autumn dress will, on Monday, October 9, open doors to its vast clientele for the winter season, entering upon the second year of presenting colored players in dramatics. While the success attained by this house in its initial effort in this line was unprecedented, plans have been made by the New Lincoln manager, Billie Burke, to present a string of Broadway's very latest successes. The New Lincoln's management will offer four separately formed stock companies, composed of all-star colored players, to play in New York and a chain of southern cities. Speculation is rife as to what people will make up the four new companies that will work under the name of the New Lincoln Stock Players. THEATRE LOWERS PRICE. Baltimore, Md—The advent of a colored stock company at the Colonial Theatre has made several of the "white" playhouses apprehensive about the loss of a large number of their colored gallery patrons. One theatre, where colored persons have been charged 25 cents for rear gallery seats, has a man going around with a big sign announcing that these seats will only cost 15 cents hereafter. Another playhouse decided to let colored people in the baleauy, but this was rescinded as the race is going to the Colonial. "Stop Thief" is drawing good houses there this week. "The Smart Set" will be the attraction there next week. Sporting Notes PUGILISM At the Harlem Sporting Club, 135th street and Madison avenue, on last Friday night, Jack Blackburn of Philadelphia defeated Young Ahearn of Brooklyn in a very fast bout. Blackburn showed the fight fans that he still can fight and possesses a great amount of his cleverness. The first six rounds of the battle Blackburn just smothered Ahearn with punches, but toward the last of the bout he began to tire and Ahearn came near evening the bout up. But the lead Blackburn had he could not overcome. The colored man would have gamed the decision had one been rendered Weights—Blackburn, 171, Ahearn, 178. At the Vanderbilt B. A. C., Brooklyn, on last Friday, Bob Massey, substituting for Eddie Dorsey, met Walter Mohr, that rugged fighter of Brooklyn, in the star bout. After fighting a game battle Massey lost the decision Massey was not in condition to battle aighter of Mohr's caliber and had to give away considerable weight. Massey deserves much credit for the battle he put up. Weights—Massey, 132, Mohr, 141. At Freeport A C., Freeport, L. I.; on Last Friday night, in the feature bout of the evening, Larry Temple, the old warrior, stopped Young Blackburn of New York in the fourth round. Temple had all the best of the fight from the first round. At the Clermont A C. Brooklyn, on last Thursday night, in the star bout of the evening, Leo Johnson, colored lightweight champion, met Mel Coogan of Brooklyn. The bout was one of the best ever staged at this club, and the fight fans, knowing the caliber of these two boys, turned out in large numbers to cheer their favorites on to victory. But there was little to choose between the two after fighting an even battle for ten rounds, and had there been a decision rendered it would have been a draw. Weights—Johnson. 131. Coogan, 133. In the final, George Basden, who has not fought for some time and is one of the best colored featherweights in the world and a very clever young boy, met Young Terry, the Brooklyn wonder. After fighting a hard battle, Basden showed that he is not right for a hard battle, as he slowed up in the latter part of his bout and gave the white boy a chance to outpoint him. --- At the Harlem Sporting Club, 153th street and Madison avenue, on Friday night, September 15. Lew Raymond, the peerless matchmaker of New York and the club, and a man who knows just what kind of mixed bouts will bring the fight fans out, has arranged two star bouts that will surely pack the club to its capacity. In the first ten-round bout the best boy at his weight in the world Buddy Faulks of Newark, meets K O. Eggers, the boy who has been defeating every boy he meets, and a boy who really carries a wallop in both hands. Eggers is a boy that never backs, and will take a punch to try and put over the K O. punch, but in Faulks he will find the best proposition he has ever met, a clever, hard-hitting boy. If Faulks fights to form the fans should witness a knockout before the tenth round. In the second ten, the old master of the ring, Darkey Griffin of Brooklyn, conceded to be the cleverest colored fighter in the world, meets Billy Fitzsimmons, the fighting Irishman of Yonkers, who has been fighting like a streak lately Griffin is training very hard at Johnson's gymnasium in 135th street and says that he will try and stop Fitzsimmons on that night. One six-round bout and three fours will be on the card also. At the Vanderbilt A. C last Monday night, K. O. Eggers of New York, who meets Buddy Faulks on next Friday night at Harlem Sporting Club, met Terry Martin in the star bout, fighting a hard battle, which was featured with heavy hitting. Eggers floored the colored boy twice during the bout, but Terry kept on tearing in, and if the referee had given a decision it would have been a draw. Weights—Martin, 120: Eggers, 121 At the Clermont A. C. Brooklyn, last Monday night, Young Hicks, the colored welterweight champion, came to himself and avenged his defeat by Young Billings of St. Paul, Minn., by decisively defeating Billings in the star bout of the evening. Although Billings went the ten rounds, he was well battered up by Hicks, who continued to rock his white opponent with stiff rights. Weights—Hicks, 142; Billings, 146. At the Fairmount A. C. Last Saturday night, John Lester Johnson, the colored light-heavyweight champion of New York, met Sailor Grande in the star bout of the evening. After fighting an even battle all the way through the ten rounds a draw would have been the proper decision should there have been one rendered Weights Grande, 174. Johnson, 182. Vote For Charles S. Whitman William M. Calder Primaries Tuesday Sept. 19, 3 to 9 p. m. Leo Johnson, the colored lightweight champion of the world, sure has a good manager in Paddy Donnelly, better known in the pugilistic world as The Fighting Irishman, because he is always fighting for his protege's rights and seldom loses a battle. Paddy keeps his boy working all the time, and does not look for any easy marks. He has just signed the champ up for two very important fights for this month with top-notchers of their class, but Johnson says "they all look alike" to him. The first bout will be at the Harlem Sporting Club on Friday night, September 23 Johnson's opponent will be that great little fighting machine from Brooklyn, Phil Bloom. The next bout will be held a week later at the Clermont A. C., Brooklyn, where he meets the couchiest boy his class, Harry Pierce, the boy from across the bridge, who has a record of twenty-two knockouts in the last twenty-two battles fought BASEBALL Lenox Oval, 145th street and Lenox avenue.—Last Sunday afternoon the strong Jersey City. Colored Giants occupied the grounds in the absence of the Lincoln Stars and crossed bats with the strong Glenmore Giants in the curtain raiser and Bronx Eagles in the second game. The colored boys put up a grand article of ball and broke even on the day. Both games were featured with fast fielding, with the Jersey City Colored Giants carrying off the honors.

Second game (called on account of darkness) Ridgewood Grounds, Brooklyn — The Lincoln Giants journeyed to these grounds last Sunday and took into camp the strong Royal Giants, who defeated them a few Sundays ago in a double-header on their home grounds. The Lincoln Giants won both ends of the double card. The games were well played and were featured with many sensational plays by both teams, but it was disastrous to the Royals, who will lose the services of their left fielder, Pugh, who had his arm broken when Redding hit him with a pitched ball, Pugh will be out of the game for the rest of the season Redding, the speed king of the Lincoln Giants, accomplished the feat that the New York Giants' pitchers tried last week—of pitching two games on one day and winning them. The heavy bombardment of the Royal Giants' pitchers by the Lincoln Giants' batters demonstrate why the Royals were defeated. The scores: R. H E.

The Pennsylvania Red Caps are exuberant over the shutout administered to the white Railroad Y M. C. A., who have been boasting of their superiority over any railroad baseball team this year. The game at Sunnyside yards last Thursday was the surprise of the season Langford pitching for the Red Caps strugg out 11, allowing three hits, Durkee struck out seven, allowing nine hits. Superior ability was exhibited by the Red Caps throughout the entire game. Johnson, on first, was in great style. Culver, the great shortstop, made three double plays to first, which caused the audience to leap to its feet and yell itself hoarse. As usual, Jackson's catching prevented the Y M. C. A. from scoring several times. Superintendent Kruck, stationmaster Egan, Captain Robinson and a number of other railway officials were present Langford the new Pennsylvania pitcher, made a record for himself by pitching a shutout game, and at no time did a player of the Y M C A get farther than second Manager Jordan states his team is in line to meet all comers and expects to carry off the penant this season.

Williams, a successful business man and a member of the Colonial Club, and M Grossman, a lawyer of this city, to be competed for among the ladies and gentlemen, respectively, who are members of the Colonial Club, were won by Miss M E Gardeen and Leon DesPorte on Labor Day. The men's singles brought together the host players in the club. The outstanding feature of the contest was the playing of C. A. Provost, who defeated among others, O. C. Newton. Mr Newton was considered at the beginning of the season to be one of the strongest players in the club, and the most likely winner of the cup. Mr. Provost's victory was sby no means a lucky one. Rather he showed the benefit of his constant match plays throughout the season, and won a decisive victory.

She, however, had to fight hard to conquer Miss E Didler, who is second only to Miss Gardeen. Among those who took up tennis for the first time this season, especial mention must be made of Chas. Buchanan, who showed remarkable improvement and skill, and was a dangerous contender. Two more of the weekly match games remain to be played before the close of the outdoor season. The indoor season, consisting of monthly invitational dances, will open with the first dance on September 22, at St. Mark's Hall, 57 West 138th street. All names and addresses should be sent to E A.

To the Sporting Editor of The Age: Much has been said about the skill of the tennis players from Washington, and the ability to outclass players of other cities they have visited. I should like to give the benefit of my observations during this summer, insofar as they affect the game in Washington, Philadelphia, and Nom Kah. Washington offers many opportunities and advantages to those who take an interest in the game of tennis. The result is, many professional men educators and students find the game attractive, and having much time, not to mention the facilities which are centralized, are able to devote considerable attention to the constant practice of the game. Philadelphia on the other hand falls to provide for the growing demand. The interest in the game is not so widespread. The group of enthusiasts is by no means large. They have to depend chiefly upon the facilities of the public courts for practice. Time is at a premium. New York combines a little of both of the foregoing places named. It has its courts centralized, making the facilities for play within easy reach of tennis enthusiasts. The courts in New York are owned and run exclusively by private tennis clubs, which is a distinct advantage over both Washington and Philadelphia, though Washington boasts of some. The advantage in courts is counter-balanced by the lack of time. Professional men, business men, teachers, and not a few of those, engaged in other occupations make up the large group of players in New York. Enthusiasm is not lacking. If the players had half the time the Washington players devote to the game, in a very short time they would be able to furnish some pleasant surprises for top-notchers. A word must be said of the game as it affects the ladies. New York possesses more representative players than any other city. For an intercity team contest New York is unbeatable. The writer wishes to include this word of encouragement to the New York players, particularly clubs. Cultivate, as much as possible, series of match games with other clubs, and members' contests. By so doing, there is good reason to hope for a better season next year. THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 14 SIMMELKJAER WINS AT CHESS The match for the colored chess championship between C. T. Warren and Harold E. Simmelkjaer, which was contested at 424 Lenox avenue, when Warren resigned, believing it useless to continue further. The store of Simmelkjaer, the winner, was 11½ won and 6½ lost. As drawn counted a half game for each player; the actual score was Simmelkjaer, won 9, lost 4, drawn 5 with Warren just the opposite. Owing to a mistake, the address of Mr. Warren's home, at which most of the games were played, was given in the newspaper notices as 436, instead of 424. Lenox avenue, and a few people desiring to witness the contests were led astray. However, quite a number were present at many of the games, and as for the most part the players resorted to the more unusual opening the spectators were rewarded with many interesting moments. The winner, Mr. Simmelkjaer, 3 West 132d street, will play any one on a strictly amateur basis RIDGEWOOD, N. I RIDGEWOOD, N.
