HUGHES WINS IN CLOSE RACE; WHITMAN AND CALDER ELECTED Republicans Carry New York by Large Plurality-Entire State Ticket Re-elected The Republicans swept New York State in Tuesday's election. Gov. Charles S. Whitman was re-elected by 150,000. William M. Calder won the United States Senatorship by over 200,000. Complete returns will show that Eugene M. Travis, State Comptroller, and the other Republican State officials have been re- 1 elected by pluralities approximating those given Hughes and Whitman. The Republican victory in the State was complete. The next Legislature will be strongly Republican. In the Senate the G. O. P. gained five new members and will have thirty-nine Republicans in the upper branch of the Legislature. In the assembly there will be 101 Republicans to 49 Democrats. The New York Age IS CLEAN.

CALDER United States Senator-Elect from New York Before election the prediction was made by local Democrats that there would be a big Republican slump which would put New York in the Democratic column and defeat Whitman and other Republican candidates on the State ticket. But the result The New York Age was just to the contrary. There was a big Democratic slump, which was particularly noticeable in New York City and Brooklyn. Not a borough in Greater New York gave Wilson anything near the usual normal Democratic plurality. The showing made by Seabury for Governor was a big disappointment. His campaign seemed to collapse a few days before election, although his managers made most roseate pre-election predictions. The heavy Republican vote in the State indicated the return of the Progressives to the fold. Up State the Republican vote was surprisingly large even to many of the Republican leaders. Hughes' plurality outside of the city exceeded the expectations of his managers. Brooklyn took advantage of the opportunity to help elect a native son United States Senator, gave him 38-702 votes to spare in that borough. He even carried New York City. COLORED POLICE CARRY OFF HONORS IN "PHILLY." (Special to THE NEW YORK AUCTION PHILADELPHIA, Pa.) Police officers Amos Edwards, Alonzo Dodson and Charles Belgrove, three colored men attached to the Nineteenth District Station House, won several prizes and scored, enough points to enable them to win the championship cup awarded the district scoring the highest number of points. They scored twenty-two points, while their nearest rival scored ten at the Policemen's Carnival which was held at the Philadelphia Ball Park, Saturday, October 21, before an audience of 25,000. CHARLES EVAN HUGHES. THE CLEF CLUB FRED'K. M. BRYAN, Conductor. JOHN B. BURROUGHS, Leader HENRY TROY and IRVING WILLIAMS, Pierrot Minstrel Managers DEACON JOHNSON, General Manager THE CARNIVAL Thursday, November 16th HUGHES IN ILLINOIS CHICAGO, IL.—The Republicans have sweet hearts with plainsmen, estimated at least 100 to 200 for Caffies E. Hughes for President and Frank O. Lowden for Governor. With Hughes and Lowden the entire State Republican ticket was carried into office, latest compilations of the vote indicated to-day. Twenty-one Republicans were elected to the House of Representatives and six Democrats. James R. Mann, minority leader in the last Congress, and Joseph G. Cannon were among the Republican Representatives who were returned. Hughes' triumph in Illinois was due to the failure of the Democrats to poll their expected big plurality in Chicago and Cook County, Hughes rolling up pluralities there as well in other sections of the State. A heavy women's vote was cast, the Republican candidate receiving approximately the same proportion of the women's vote as the men's. CROPSEY AND LEWIS WINNERS IN BROOKLYN Brooklyn Republicans won a big victory Tuesday in the election of most of their local ticket. The fight centered around the election of James C. Cropsey for the Supreme Court bench and Harry E. Lewis for District Attorney. Both men hold these offices at present by appointment of Governor Whitman. Cropsey carried Brooklyn by nearly 25,000. The judicial department comprises the counties of Kings, Queens, Richmond, Suffolk and Nassau. Lewis defeated O'Neil by 26,065 plurality. HOUSE REPUBLICAN SENATE DEMOCRATIC Late returns to The Asm indicate that the next Congress will be divided; the House Republican and the Senate Democratic. Republican gains were made principally in the Western States. In the upper branch Republicans gained one Senator each in New York, New Jersey, Maryland, Ohio, and two in Indiana, where Thomas Taggart, the Democratic leader of the State, went down to defeat. Among the Senators-elect are Frank B. Kellogg of Minnesota, who prosecuted the Standard Oil Company, and Philander C. Knox of Pennsylvania who was Secretary of State under Taft. Result of Presidential Election in Doubt Until Late Wednesday Afternoon At 4 o'clock Wednesday afternoon Chairman Willcox declared that Mr. Hughes had been elected President and gave The Age the following states that went for the Republican nominee: In one of the closest contests ever held for the Presidency in the United States, Charles Evans Hughes, Republican, has defeated Woodrow Wilson, Democrat, by a close margin. Not until late Wednesday afternoon was it definitely known who would be the next President. The country from coast to coast was on the tip-toe of expectation awaiting word as to the final outcome. Chairman Willcox of the Republican National Committee, stated at 4 o'clock that he was sure Charles Evans Hughes had been elected President of the United States and placed the number of electoral votes received by the Republican nominee at not less than 277. The following states were put in the Republican column: California, Connecticut, Delaware, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Maine, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, North Dakota, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, South Dakota, Vermont and Wisconsin. Late Tuesday night the general impression prevailed that Mr. Hughes had won the Presidency by a large margin. Incomplete returns had then been received from the Northwest and West. When the populace arge Wednesday morning it was to find, to the chagrin of some and to the delight of others that the result of the election was in doubt, and that the Democrats entertained hopes of electing Wilson. Throughout the morning hours the situation was tense and nerve-racking, as related returns came in from the far West and Northwest. FRELINGHUYSEN AND EDGE WIN IN NEW JERSEY (Special to THE NEW YORK AUSTRALIAN) TRENTON, N. J.—Hughes has carried New Jersey by between 35,000 and 40,000, and a Republican United States Senator, a Republican Governor and Republican Legislature were elected. Frelinghuysen defeated Martine for United States Senator by a wide margin. Senator Edge, the Republican candidate for Governor, claims his election over Naval Officer H. Otto Wittpenn of Hudson by about 40,000. The Republican State Committee announces the new Assembly will stand 42 Republicans to 10 Democrats. At first the Democrats entertained hopes of capturing California with its thirteen votes. Although Johnson had won an overwhelming victory for United States Senator the women's vote and other contributing agencies had cut down Hughes' lead over Wilson to an alarming degree. Although the Republicans have carried California it will be by a plurality of from 10,000 to 15,000. Minnesota was also claimed by the Democrats, but late returns also favored the G. O. P. nominee which meant twelve more votes for Mr. Hughes. During the forenoon Wednesday Chairman McCormick of the Democratic National Committee claimed Michigan and West Virginia, but late returns from these states were found to be for the Republicans. TRUSTEE IN DELAWARE Washington, Del., Dr. Samuel G. Llbert has been appointed a trustee of Delaware State College for Negro stud- ent, near Dover, by Gov. Miller. He is the first man of his race to be ap- pointed a trustee. She—Is Princeton, in New York? Student (truthfully reflective)—Yes, a great part of the time.—Princeton Tiger.

The Senate will stand about 13 Republicans to 8 Democrats and this will mean a Republican Legislation of 29 on joint ballot, which insures the replacing of a Democratic State Comptroller by a Republican. Eight and possibly nine Congressmen have been elected in the State. The Republicans have probably carried the First, Second, Fourth, Fifth, Seventh, Eighth, Ninth and Tenth Congressional districts, and the Democrats have captured the Third, Sixth and Eleventh and Twelfth.

McLaughlin chief marshal of the Norfolk Fire Department, and several of his men were present at Hampton Institute on October 9 at the first observance of Fire Prevention Day to give demonstrations in the use of scaling ladders ain't the saving of human life in burning buildings. chief McLaughlin co-operated with Major Allen Washington. Hampton students showed how fires water, with sand, with hand chemical antiquisher, with a large size chemical engine, and with a full size steam engine. A bucket brigade showed how a small group of clear-headed, active men could pass water quickly and successfully to a burning building. The Hampton tradesmen who are taking the plumbing and steam-fitting course handled skillfully the steam engine. The preliminary fire drill demonstrated how successfully Hampton is preparing to meet, day by day, its fire risk. Several hundred girls left the dormitory in a remarkably short time, in order and with strict attention to discipline. The boys, on the sound of the fire signal, fell into their various places and were ready at once to meet an emergency. In the evening a helpful talk was given by Major Washington on the necessity of carefulness in guarding against fires. A Hampton graduate explained the mechanism of a chemical extinguisher, and a reel of motion pictures drove home the truth that safety chiefly is prevention, but that it is also possible to prevent many fires from getting under great headway. HOLD WORLD'S SERVICE CONVENTIONS IN ALA. BIRMINGHAM, Ala.—A series of con- ventions are being held throughout the country by white and colored people known as the world's service conventi- ons.

Ca- phur, formerly of this city, in which he addresses. "Because the whole world of mankind is knitted together by a perfect network of human relationship, a larger vision as well as a closer one is needed. The two, the wide and near vision, give breadth and concentration which cannot fail to inspire hope and develop adequacy and power. "This and more the world's service courts have done to Birmingham and the State at large." It is an interdisciplinary movement doing uplift work especially among the colorful people. Its mission is far reaching and is encouraged by the best white citizens of this country.

"INDEPENDENT" STATES What a commentary it is upon the states that compose the "Solid South" that in not one of them was it necessary for the Democratic candidate to appear, and in not one of them was it of any use for the Republican candidate to appear. The Democratic candidate knew beyond all doubt that he had the votes of these states, and the Republican candidate knew beyond all doubt that there was no possibility of changing that vote by any appeal to reason. It has sometimes been stated that there is a Solid North opposed to the Solid South, but there is no such condition. Even in those northern Republican states that are rock-ribbed, there is always a free discussion of the issues, and there is never any absolute certainty which way the states will go. In fact, these states often go one way in national politics and another way in state politics. The citizens of these states are always open to argument and conviction. But the states of the Solid South are indeed solid; they are as solid as wood or stone. It appears to us that, politically, the White South needs emancipation as much as the Black South. There can be no real independence where such conditions rule. NIL NISI BONUM. Here is The World's eulogy on President Wilson: WOODROW WILSON. Regardless of the popular verdict expressed at the polls yesterday. The World believes that Woodrow Wilson is one of the great Presidents of the United States; that history will not only place him in the front rank of Presidents but that it will judge him one of the wisest, ablest and most far-sighted leaders that modern democracy has produced either in the United States or in any other country. We should like to take time and space to disagree with The World but we heed the old admonition, "Nil Nisi Bonum." THE COLORED ADVISORY COMMITTEE. No little credit for the victory of the Grand Old Party is due to the Colored Advisory Committee. This committee, under the directorship of the Hon. Charles W. Anderson, did excellent work. Its organization and the high plane on which it was conducted mark a new level for the race in national politics. Through the committee, literature was sent to colored voters all over the country. The best speakers that could be obtained were sent where they were most needed. No effort was spared to arouse colored voters to the seriousness of the questions confronting the race. The Advisory Committee is entitled to feel gratified at the part it played in the campaign. It performed and finished its work in a way that demands the respect and thanks of the National Committee, the Republican party and all colored Americans. JAMES W. JOHNSON, CONTRIBUTING EDITOR We say "Thank God!" from the bottom of our heart, for there is much to be thankful for. Wilsonism and all that Wilsonism means has been rebuked. Once again it is proved that justice and right will prevail. We thank God that the country is saved from the hypocrisy and cowardice which has characterized the Government under the Wilson Administration, and that the United States may now regain its prestige and take its honorable place among the nations of the world; that again no one will need to apologize for bearing the title "American Citizen." We thank God that we as a race have been delivered from the rule of Wilsonism and Vardamanism in the National Capital; that governmental sanction to Jim Crowism is dead; dead, we believe forever. November 7, 1916, may well be remembered as a date which marks a turning point in our history. Those of us who fully realize all that we had at stake, can well look upon it as a day of Thanksgiving for us as a people. The re-election of Woodrow Wilson would have meant the continuance of the policies and practices which have for their end nothing less than the total elimination of the colored American from all part and participation in the government, and our outlook would have been one bordering on despair; as it is, we can face the future with brave and confident hearts, knowing that the hand of the National Government, at least, is not against us. Again, we say, Thank God. The New York World which, in spite of its greatness as a newspaper, seemed to have lost its mental balance in its support of Woodrow Wilson, has been driven to sheer insanity, by his defeat. The Times, another ardent supporter of the President, takes his defeat, with good grace. It comes out in a sane editorial under the heading, "The Republican Triumph," which begins with the following paragraph: The Republican legend is still vital, like the Napoleonic legend it survives death and disaster, its power, though diminished, dominates the country. The Times has often said that the country believes that it is better off under a Republican than under a Democratic administration. Now and then it uses the Democratic Party as a whip to scourge the Republicans into good behavior; duly chastened, they are returned to power. But The World feels that the country is lost. Its leading editorial on the result of the election is headed, "A Leap in the Dark." Here are a few of its gloomy thoughts: The American people have decided that unity of citizenship is not essential to the Nation and that a divided allegiance involves no peril to the Republic. They have decided that they do not care for progressive government and would rather have corporation rule under the trusteeship of Big Business. They have decided as well that they prefer the probability of war with somebody to the probability of peace with everybody. There can be no other meaning to the election of Mr. Hughes. In the midst of the gravest crisis known to modern history the United States is making a most dangerous political experiment. It is changing its government without knowing what new policies of government it has adopted, and it is trusting to blind luck out of the difficulty that it has created for itself. Nobody knows what Mr. Hughes intends to do. Mr. Hughes has carefully refrained from saying what he intends to do. All that we know is that he has indicated in the most pronounced manner his unyielding opposition to everything that the Wilson Administration has accomplished and his determination to change it all in the name of efficiency and dominant Americanism. What it will all come to no man is wise enough to foresee, least of all Mr. Hughes, who is only the nominal leader of forces that he can never control. The American people have turned over their Government to a coalition of the most heterogeneous elements that ever combined to punish a President. It is hard to understand how a paper like The World can draw on its imagination to the extent of picturing such a condition as the result of Mr. Hughes' election. We are glad the election is over. We are glad to be relieved of the necessity of attacking the Wilson Administration week after week. We are glad once more to get back to the topics we like to write on. It was exceedingly distasteful to be compelled to lambaste Woodrow or some member of his cabinet or his whole party in each issue, but "we seen our duty and we done it." Now, we bid farewell to Woodrow and Josephus, to Bryan and Baker; and we hope we shall never need to mention them here again. We don't believe we shall ever have to mention them again, but we must admit that they kept us busy while they were at it. Loyal men and women of the race can have only one feeling for the colored men who worked for the re-election of President Wilson, and that feeling is contempt. Had they been successful in what they were trying to do, a feeling against them would have risen to the level of bitterness and, perhaps, hate. In this column we have been considerate of colored men who THANK GOD! "Thank God!" from the bottom of our me thankful for. Wilsonism and all that W ubuked.

We have been fair to those colored men in the large Northern cities who have generally affiliated with the Democratic party in local affairs. But for those colored men who, knowing what Wilson has meant to the race in the past three years, supported him in this election we have no respect. As for those who supported him merely for the thirty pieces of silver that was in it, they do not deserve even contempt. We clip the following despair haps the most influential newspaper. Abbeville.—As a consequence Anthony Crawford, a well to do held this afternoon that the victim ville county before November 15, ground that it was for the sake of county, followed a number of spies by several hundred citizens. As related in last week's Ag on a charge, not even remotely but on account of an altercation. We are informed that Crawford owner of about five hundred acres the resolution adopted at this ville county before November 15. Here we have a form of law only to lynching. If these Crawford they should be arrested and tried are not, the meeting of the citizen called to invoke the law to protection that might arise from the an action would really have been interest of the county." We clip the following despatch from the Columbia State, perhaps the most influential newspaper in South Carolina: Abbeville.—As a consequence of the lynching here Saturday of Anthony Crawford, a well to do Negro, it was decided at a meeting held this afternoon that the victim's family be advised to leave Abbeville county before November 15. The action, taken on the declared ground that it was for the sake of peace and the best interest of the county, followed a number of speeches. The meeting was attended by several hundred citizens. As related in last week's Age, Anthony Crawford was lynched on a charge not even remotely connected with the "usual crime," but on account of an altercation between himself and a white man. We are informed that Crawford was a well-to-do farmer and the owner of about five hundred acres of land. He left five sons who, by the resolution adopted at this citizen's meeting, must leave Abbeville county before November 15. Here we have a form of lawlessness which in cruelty is second only to lynching. If these Crawford boys are guilty of any crime, they should be arrested and tried by due process of law. If they are not, the meeting of the citizens of Abbeville should have been called to invoke the law to protect these boys against any persecution that might arise from the feeling against their father. Such an action would really have been "for the sake of peace and the best interest of the county." WHAT THE PEOPLE SAY A Reader for Thirty Years. To the Editor of The Age: Enclosed you will find order for $1.50, for renewal of my subscription to your valuable paper. I have been a reader of your paper for over thirty years. I would like very much to know who the gentleman was that first sold The Age in Newark, N. J. I was not able to read at the time, but I remember hearing mother say to my brothers, "Here is a paper I bought of a young man in our church to-day." She also said, "I do not have time to read the daily paper, but I shall take the time to read this paper because it is a colored paper." I have carefully, with pride and joy, watched the growth of the paper ever since that day. Wishing you great success in the future. Yours truly, NELLIE M. TRENT. 120 Horne Ave., Rutherford, N. J. RESTRAINING THE NEGRO. W. J. Blackburn has returned from an extended business trip through Florida and Georgia. He says he was told in Jacksonville that at least 10,000 Negroes had been deported from Florida recently to northern states and that while he was in Savannah a few nights ago the police rounded up a large crowd of Negroes in the passenger station and marched them off to jail, after they had secured tickets to points in the north. The above news item appeared in The Greensboro Daily News Sunday, November 5. The preamble to the Declaration of Independence says among other things that "all men are endowed with certain invaluable rights; that among these are life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness." Now, here are a set of men in pursuit of happiness seeking other fields of labor, to obtain a higher wage, so as to make life more pleasant and tolerable. They have not forfeited their liberty by violating any law of the State, yet they are unceremoniously marched off to jail by these southern barbarians for trying to exercise their rights and privileges as guaranteed them, as well as other men, by the Constitution of the United States. If it is God's, will and the verdict of the people of this country on next Tuesday, that we shall be cursed with a democratic administration another four years, with the South "in the saddle," may the Good Lord have mercy on us and come to our rescue. C. H. MOORE. THE PULLMAN PORTER. To the Editor of THE AGE: THE NEW YORK AGE raises the question, "Is the Pullman porter a railroad man and will the eight-hour day affect him?" The question is timely and deserves serious consideration of the Pullman company. That the Pullman porter has a grievance is no secret. With his complaint the investigation of the Labor Commission has brought but scant relief. With the ever-increasing cost of living the porter's wages remain practically at a standstill. The claim for a raise has been conceded to all the other employees of the railroad company in order that the employ may maintain himself and family, but the porter in most cases has been left out. The railroad claims that he should look to the Pullman company; the Pullman company has ignored or been unmindful of the porter's claims, relying upon the custom long established that the porter's collect from the traveling public money enough. Mr. Robert Lincoln stated that the system has been very annoying to him, but it was a condition he found. So was this country in general, and the colored man in particular, when Abraham Lincoln was elected President of the United States; but what was done to change the condition of the colored man and of the country is too well known. Mr. Robert Lincoln served his time as president of the great Pullman company and left office with the condition practically the same, except the treasury of the company which had been carried by these underpaid or not well Pullman porters. Mr. Lincoln's duty to something is not all done; he is now A CITIZENS' MEETING. match from the Columbia State, per- paper in South Carolina: One of the lynching here Saturday of Negro, it was decided at a meeting man's family be advised to leave Abbe- er. The action, taken on the declared of peace and the best interest of the freeches. The meeting was attended age, Anthony Crawford was lynched connected with the "usual crime," between himself and a white man. was a well-to-do farmer and the s of land. He left five sons who, by citizen's meeting, must leave Abbe- lessness which in cruelty is second for boys are guilty of any crime, and by due process of law. If they sens of Abbeville should have been set these boys against any persecu- feeling against their father. Such "for the sake of peace and the best president of the board of directors, and a word from him would change the whole system in twenty-four hours. We argue not for favor, but rather make a claim for fairness. Let the laborer be rewarded for efficiency, not color. The Pullman porter would receive his promotion along with other employees of the company; he might be conductor, agent, superintendent, etc. This would advance the porter in respect of himself and his fellows. Take, for instance, the stewards of the company—one of the most important departments. The king's palace, the best hotel and the most exclusive homes are substituted for on the Pullman private cars. The Pullman porter, in the main, is responsible for this service. The Pullman company has in its employ several white men doing the very same work they are called stewards and receive fifteen or twenty dollars more for their service simply because they are white men. Is this fair? Is it just? The great company, whose watchwork is efficiency, and men like Mr. Lincoln and Mr. Cook should see to it that every man gets a fair chance in the race of life. Let the colored steward's wages be standardized and be put on the same level of the white steward; this would make for equal respect one for the other and would be a suitable reward for loyal and efficient service. Again, it should be determined as to when the porter's day's work begins and where it ends. Hardly a day throughout the fifty years of the Pullman company's existence that the porter has not given three to five hours each day without pay. What do I mean? Well, the porter's time is given according to the leaving and arrival of trains. Say No. 14 leaves the terminal at 11.30 p. m.; although the porters report and are assigned to duty, no record is kept of the hours from 6 p. m. till 11.30, and yet this time is given to the Pullman company. The train No. 4 arrives at the station at 5.30 p. m.; the passengers remain in the car till 7.30; the porter finishes his work at 8.30; and yet the Pullman company exacts this time from the porter. Is the porter a railroad man? Is he counted an operator of the railroad company? The only duty from which the porter is exempt is the operation of the locomotive. He is held responsible for the reception and discharge of passengers; he is oftimes held responsible for the transportation of passengers. The safety is positively in the hands of the porter. Life, limb and property come within the porter's supervision. The porters formed no union to embarrass the company, nor strike to intimidate the public. He brings the torch of truth in his right hand and the wreath of loyalty in the left. Representing a race of toil and service, we appeal to a race who has espoused the cause of Christ and have taught us to teach men to "do unto others as you would have others do unto you." The porters' cause is upon your conscience. We await your verdict. Should the laborer receive the reward of his hire? We ask Mr. Robert Lincoln and the board of directors to answer. The list of prominent passengers complimenting the service of the Pullman porter shall serve as a reference. Any questions as to facts will be cheerfully answered by GEORGE YOUNG. New York City. THE NEGRO AND THE WAR. To the Editor of THE AGE: Doubtlessly the war is a blessing to the Nero in the South. It has already brought about a helping feature in the labor situation and the Southern white man is alarmed and excited. Segregation, lynch law and mob violence, injustice in industry, bad management in the school systems, no protection whatever in the courts, with the franchise taken from the black man, outrages done to colored women and girls by the white man, and many other inhuman practices throughout the South, are all getting some requital, from the war in Europe. It would seem that the Southern white man would be willing for the Nero to go, since he is so obnoxious to the social environment of the land of our birth. In many ways have authorities prevented the moral and social misfit of a striving people. Legislation has been introduced to stop and prevent white people from teaching and helping the black man in his educational or vocational to disobrace and present a social relation that might be between the male black and female white, when the sojal relation between the male white and the black back is a corollary name to the American institution: These things lay heavily upon the heart of the poor black man of the South, who is still in bondage, for the man who cannot exercise the right of franchise is a slave in the strictest sense. The Negroes of the South pay three-fourths of the fines in petty courts, not because they are worse and more criminal than the whites, but because of the injustice handed down in these courts. And now there is an opportunity offered the Negro to better his environment, and what do you think? The white man, through his official powers is calling out the police force and, perhaps, the state militia, to stop the man who is down; the man who is legislated against; the man who is segregated; the man who cannot and is not allowed to protect his wife and daughters; the man who is lynched and shot like a venomous viper, guilty or innocent; and the man whose skin is NOT white. God is Judge and Ruler and things must come and go His way or perish. LYNCHING MADE EASY. (From the New York World.) Is there such a thing as government in the State of Kentucky? The leisurely performance of a Paducah mob in taking one Negro from the County Jail and lynching him and another without serious interference by the authorities given point to the question. The law forged a border in a slow process. Then the steel coils had to be forced, necessitating further delay until a foundryman could be summoned to cut the bars. Altogether, five hours of precious time from the point of view of men bent on vengeance were consumed before the mob gained possession of its victims and could proceed to hang and burn them. There was plenty of time for mob violence, plenty of time for lawlessness. Why was the time not sufficient also for the authorities to act, for the sheriff to raise a pose, or to appeal for military aid? Their utter failure to prevent the lynching in the criminumstances pute the stamp of official incompetence, if not of official cowardice, on the Paducah authorities. If there are degrees of disgrace in lynchings, the Kentucky city must bear the reproach of having permitted one of the worst exhibitions of unrestrained mob violence. WASHINGTON, D. C. Washington, D.

WHITE) The following very interesting treatise on the future of music as related to its development by the Negro race, was published in The Evening Post Saturday Magazine, New York, after an interview with David Mannes, the eminent violinist, who has for years been interested in the race. Especially interesting is his defense of the race, against the charge that vulgar ragtime is a Negro production. The article in part is as follows: Pure music for the children of to-day is an important factor in a nation's scheme of preparedness, in that it will make for a strong and brave race of men and women to-morrow. Such is the conclusion of David Mannes, the violinist, who owes his start in his profession to an old colored musician in the Tenderloin of an earlier New York, and who has devoted his life in large part to guiding and developing the musical genius of the Negro. Mr. Mannes advanced this thesis as to the importance of music to the human race, irrespective of color, while talking on favorite theme: the possibilities of the American Negro and the rare opportunity of reaching and developing him through his fondness for music. Basing his statement on a long and intimate experience with colored students, Mr. Mannes said that the Negro invariably turned for his musical expression either to instruments upon which he could pick or to instruments of percussion, bowed instruments never having figured in the Negro's repertoire either here or in Africa. Essentially a violinist himself, Mr. Mannes is particularly interested in speculations as to what will happen when the Negro race awakens to the possibilities of the violin and the 'cello, and he likes to think that when the Negroes master the use of the bow their management of it will approach "the fine and natural legato of their own voices." When it comes to comparing human potentialities, this musician, who was first taught by a Negro and has since made the teaching of many members of that race a labor of love, resents the drawing of a color line. As he warms to the championship of their possibilities of development through music, he pictures what the future has in store. That future may be a distant one, he readily admits, but, he adds, to dream is but to prophesy. "Raguime is not essentially vulgar, though its text and harmonic sequence may be," he says. "The Negro himself is most sorrowful that he is thought the producer of vulgar ragtime. To my knowledge no Negro has ever written to his music words to which anyone could take exception. Where vulgarity occurs in songs attributed to colored men, it is invariably some white man who has superimposed it. Furthermore you must acknowledge the Negro's sense of poetry. I combat most earnestly the theory that the Negro's capacity for development is limited. "Not having had the opportunity to develop a musical art tradition of their own, our colored citizens must become acquainted with ours. There the difficulty lies because they must retain their natural genius and make their own music. Having no framework of their own upon which to build, their faith must rest on Bach and Beethoven and Brahms. "Let us turn from the creative hold to that of performance, and so we wish the future holds out for us there. As the Negro lends his own collection to any tongue he learns, so his touch on the piano differs from the white man. Here, too, his natural potentiality must expand. "If people could bear Miss K. Robinson, the pupil of Miss L. Ignikawa and now an instructor at the Music School Settlement in colored People in Harlem, play the Icena of Delaware and To a Wild Rose! by MacDowell, they would realize that between those professions a varied range of musical dynamics all within the reach of our colored people." "Their musical inspiration as a role has as its vital force an intense structural feeling so common in the black rock literate and illustrate. The properness in music is the string of the poetical, musical and dramatic qualities of the child's role so that the man and the woman of tenor or tenor shall record the onslaughts of natural aggression. "I am the only wife teacher at Music School I still attend and I have the greatest test for many of my Negro colleagues with whom I work With J. Robinson Johnson in particular do I serve in his theory that presupposes the choice of today will be the strong and grave women and men of to-morrow." Mr. Mannes then reminded to the question of the right background for the development of the colored man's musical genius and unmasked the need for making generally familiar the fundamental sources of our present-day development. He said: "As Theodore Thomas once said, familiar music is popular music. My whole idea, therefore, is to make Beethoven, Bach, Brahms and Covran frank familiar and popular with the colored people and raise them, through these masters, to the plane of intelligent appreciation of and participation in the best traditions which we have. "As a musician, I admit this is in the far future, but to dream is to prophesy. The way is hard and long ahead, but I am thrilled with the attitude of such a fine musician as Percy Grainger toward Negro music. In our own time he has delved more deeply into folk song than any of us, and knows more about it than I do. Let him speak." Mr. Mannes then told the need for some work among Negroes in the North and of the founding of the Music Settlement for Colored People, which now owns its own home at 6 West 131st street. Hampton and Tuskegee were meeting the problem in the South, he said, but while the problem was greater in the North, we had not taken sufficient heed. "The settlement for colored students," said Mr. Mannes, "is founded on the lines of work carried on in the East Third Street Music School Settlement. There are now about forty of these schools between the Atlantic and the Pacific, and seven of them are in New York City alone. Mr. Howard Mansfield is president of the National Federation. "The Settlement for Colored People owes its start to Miss Elizabeth Walton and Miss Natalie Curtis. Elbridge L. Adams, a lawyer, is now president of the Settlement, and another hard worker for the cause is Mrs. Francis Barlow. I also want to pay a tribute to Dr. Frank Damrosch for the splendid opportunities he has afforded for the continued study of a few talented Negro students at the Institute of Musical Art. "During the yearly term at the Settlement I go up there one afternoon a week and teach four of the most promising pupils. I won't teach performers, but will teach only those who mean in turn to teach their own people. Music to me is not a racial question; to all must come the comforts of true artistic and spiritual expression. The Negro can and will give a curious incentive to future American composition." THEATRICAL JOTTINGS. Gibson's New Standard Theatre, Philadelphia, for the week of November 6th: Duke Johnson and Mae Wells, Braggar Brothers, Mack and Mack, Hill Sisters, Bert Murphey, Bailey and Thomas, and the Darktown Frolics with twelve people. LAFAYETTE THEATRE The Quality Amusement Corporation, operating the Lafayette, held over this week its offering of the musical comedy, "45 Minutes from Broadway," and the company was greeted each night by crowded houses. A special midnight show was put on Election night. "The City," by Clyde Fitch, will be the offering for the week of November 13, with a strong producing cast. No one, unless he has read the book or seen the play, can imagine the magnificent strength with which the dramatist thunders out the tragic transition of the "Rands" from their quiet, peaceful home in Middlebury, N. Y., to the macstrom of social and political life in Manhattan. There is more dramatic strength in any one of the "The City's" many scenes than can be found in many plays in entirety. It is action from the start to the finish, with constant acceleration and forceful climaxes as the plot unfolds. No words are wasted. There is not a single meaningless speech in the play. There are no impossible characters, and in a word it is all worth and no trash, a notable achievement in American dramatic work and an enlisting monument to the name of its author. Clyde "Fitch" discovers his people, "George Rand" a country banker and his family, in Middleburg, where they are prosperous and happy until the banker's son, "George Rand, Jr." develops a soaring ambition to explore. They bring every argument to bear upon the old banker, who tells them he would rather be a big man in a small town than a small one in a large city. He has the better of the argument and things would have gone along in the same channels but for the discovery of a skeleton in the old museum past. An unacknowledged son, Frederick Hancock, a morphine god who discovers that the old man is a maned rogue, tries to blackmail him, and in a strange scene obtains revenge from him. The old man then tells his former mate of his past life and asks a promise to bring him to go to the city with his father, each of his professors and the doctor and broker, at the university of his past life having his Ironically, for the time in New York between polling stations on the party line, George Hancock was private secretary in the party office. George himself is a dutiful blues man, good with family. George has followed the traditional methods of this art, and he does, as private secretary, the duties of the nomination committee for his reelection, which will be held, so voluntarily, in his home, several miles away in a more secure location than Chelsea, the city of voters has recently married Hancock, not knowing the tie of blood between them. That comes the greatest secret of the play, and the audience is well known as the plot unravels. George Hancock and tells him he has married his own sister. Hancock does not to prevent her ever know one the awful truth. Rand writes the most told story him as he attempts smoky, and Hancock bags for the war which Rand throws out of the window. Hancock expands his crime in the electric chair and Rand begins to know with Eleanor Vorners, a sweet natured and lovable girl.

Atlanta, Ga.—Talladega began the tight with the greatest of confidence, and for the first quarter presented a most formidable defense. In the second quarter a forward pane put the ball on T. C.'s 6-yd line. Lewis went off tackle to a touchdown. Within 10 minutes T. C. was again rushed to her 25-yd line. A forward pass to Brock resulted in the second touchdown. In the third quarter Hall broke through, blocked a kick and ran 30 yards for the third touchdown. In the fourth quarter Morehouse, had the ball on T. C.'s 10-yd line, a free fumble bounded across the line and was recovered by Sumner, who touched the two teams with the eye Talladega appears to have much the heavier team. Throughout the whole game, even though Talladega put one of the hardest fights ever, they did not realise a single first down nor did they come within the 25-yd line of the Tiger's goal. The Morehouse team was in excellent form and had wonderful endurance. Touchdowns - Lewis 1, Brock 1, Hall 1, Summers 1. Goals - Lewis 1, Hall 1. Finer score - M. C. 28, T. C. 0. Next Saturday Tuskegee is in the Tiger's camp for the next important engagement. A great battle is predicted. En route from Talladega to Atlanta the team was forced to stop over in Anniston, Ala., for six hours for train connections. The boys were entertained at the home of Dr. and Mrs. Dough Wilburn. Dr. Wilburn is in an alumnus of Morehouse College. Mrs. Wilburn is the aunt of John Dent, who was on the trip. Harpton Wise from Union. Hampton, Va.—On Friday, November 3, the Hampton and Union football squads met on the Hampton Institute gridiron. The game started by Union kicking off to Hampton. The kick was received by J. H. Harvey, the slick quarterback, and brought up the field for thirty yards. Both teams lined up fast and charged like fends. Capt. Doresey swept around right end for fifteen yards on the second down. Union tightened up, holding Hampton for the fourth down. Doresey punted from the center of the field over Union's goal line. The ball was then brought out to the twenty-five yard line and put into play. both teams fought desperately, for the ball was at this time in Hampton's territory. Union fumbled twice before the fourth down, but luck was with the "State Capital" boys and one of their men covered the pigskin each time. Hucles breached around Hampton's end, making a good gain, but a piece of the Blue and White machinery struck him, causing him to be lame the rest of the game. Despite his game leg, Hucles attempted to punt, but Charlie Dick, lightning tackle, was always on the job to block the ball. The second quarter opened with Union over the ball. During the greater part of this quarter the teams played from one end of the gridiron to the other. Hampton's center, "Red" Dabnoy, became ferocious and began to go over Union's line, picking off the quarterback before he could pass the ball. The greatest feature of this quarter was the twenty-yard forward pass by Hampton from Harvey to Dorsay, which resulted in the first touchdown. The University boys tied up under the goal with grim faces. Stiff Dorsay fell to kick goal, so their fates became covered with sambas again. The touchdown by Hampton didn't take any of the courage out of the Union aggregation. The Union team came back and fought in over then had only one fourth. Hurricane Kissed off to Union. The catch was in the territory who substituted in Hudsboro. The most exciting time of the game was a hand for Gregory Cobb through Thompson's line and reached within the words of their coach after several passes, but on the touchdown, there was aumble which caused Union to call back nearly ten yards out of the first half was at hand with Hampton ahead. The second down was behind him, but to allure this then quarter, not to the wishes of this quarter of the team, he made it out and ran down. They fell, however, at block goal. The rest of the quarter was spent in playing up and down the 111. The fourth quarter sounded with the 12 to Hampton's postgame. After a very end line plays, Hampton tried one of his famous passes to Mundy, who sat situated for Mundy. Hampton made a conventional catch in a grabbing Lifton yard. Hampton again plotted the Union line until they were within three yards of the goal. Union was offside and was penalized cousins Hampton to get another touchdown fouled (fired to kick goal). Toward the last of the quarter Hampton was within thirty yards of the goal with Harvey drop-kicked over the top. Tight and close calling Hampton was on mobile cover over the status to the time of 16 to 6. A great deal of credit is due to Capt. Dorsey, "Red" Dabney, Kuney and Dixon of Hampton; also to Gregory, Capt. Pursey, Thompson and Walters of Union. Hueley is always to be remembered when a kicking argument crises.
