AN ARMORY FOR THE 15TH REGIMENT, New York Guard!
This was the slogan sounded on Thursday, May 13, at a public hearing before the Armory Board of the City of New York held in Mayor Hollis office in the City Hall.
The hearing was granted by the Armory Board as the direct result of the resolution recently presented by Alderman Charles H. Robinson of 25th Aldermanic district and unanimously adopted by the City Council.
WHEREAS, The Armory Board of the City of New York voted last year in favor of the erection of a new armory for the gallant fifteenth and

Mayor and Board Imprisoned
Major Furello H. LaGurcia, president of the Board of Alderman and a member of the Army Board, is deputy commander in the army and is co-convener in every way with Alderman Eberhard Major. LaGurcia now being a civilian service during the world war, is a member of the American Army Service Corps.
Mayor Hylan and other members of the board appeared to be favorably impressed by the arguments advanced by the speakers and it is hoped that early and favorable action will follow the hearing.
Among the civic organizations endorsing the armory proposition is the Union Preachers' Meeting of New York and vicinity, which appointed a committee to memorialize the Board of Estimate and Apportionment in behalf of the armory. The Rev. Wm. H. Brooks, chaplain of the 15th regiment, served as chairman of this committee, the other members being the Revs. F. A. Cullen, William A. Byrd, (president of the Union), Frederick J. Handy, and W. S. Holder, secretary. This committee addressed the following letter to the Board of Estimate and Apportionment:
"The matter of an armory for the Fifteenth Regiment has been brought to the attention of the Union Preachers' Meeting of New York and vicinity, both by those directly interested in promoting this object and by the members of the regiment itself. In view of the record made by the gallant 15th, and the additional fact that said regiment has never had any permanent location, and the further fact that it is the only regiment in the State without an armory:
"We therefore ask and urge that immediate steps be taken for the erection of permanent quarters. We, as well as the citizens of New York, feel, because of the efficiency of the regiment, that it is due not only to the regiment but to the people of the State that it be permanently housed.

The Tripp Child Is A Triple Medal Winner In Health Show
Audrey Tripp, 3 years, 9 months of age, the little daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Reynold P. Tripp, 41 East 133rd street, won three medals in the Milk and Child Health Exposition, now being conducted at Grand Central Palace by the Bureau of Child Hygiene of the Board of Health. For being morally and physically the most perfectly developed pre-school child, class 2 to 6 years, in the Harlem district little Audrey received a silver medal; for being the most perfect in Manhattan Borough she received a gold medal; and for being the third best in Greater New York, covering the five boroughs of Manhattan, Brooklyn, The Bronx, Staten Island and Queens, she received another silver medal.

New York Board Of Aldermen Approve Public Bath House
Adopt Unanimously Alderman Robert's Resolution for Public Convenience in Harlem District
At the regular meeting of the board of Aldermen of New York City, held on Tuesday, May 18, a resolution was presented by Alderman Charles H. Roberts of the 27th Aldermanic district, providing that a public bath house would be opened in the territory bounded by 125th street on the south, 140th street on the north, Fifth avenue on the east and Seventh avenue on the west. The resolution was unanimously adopted by the Board of Aldermen.
The matter now goes to the Board of Estimate and Apportionment for approval and for the making of an appropriation to carry out the terms of the resolution. It is worthy of note that this resolution calls for a public bath house open to all in the community, and not for a "colored" bath house as was dwelt upon by another public official on a recent occasion.

Audrey was the only colored child competing, it is reported, and completely outclassed the twenty thousand children entered from the Manhattan district. The Harlem award was made on May 11 at the Harlem District Milk Station, 348 East 74th street; on May 13, the Manhattan award was made at the Academy of Medicine; and the award of third place for Greater New York was made on May 14 at the office of the Commissioner of Health. The medals were presented to Audrey on Thursday, May 20, at Grand Central Palace, when the prize winners held a reception, chaperoned by their food and doting proud mothers. Mayor Hyllan was scheduled to make the presentations.
Already a Movie Star
The judges were Dr. Herbert G. Wilcox of Chicago, Dr. Miner C. Hill of Detroit, and Dr. Godfrey Pijek of New York, celebrated specialists and experts on children. Save for a slightly imperfect left torsal they pronounced the Tripp child as being physically perfect. She weighs thirty-six pounds, is thirty-eight inches high and has a chest measurement of twenty inches. Her head, nineteen inches high, is pronounced perfect by the judges. She has been entirely breast-fed and is larger than usual for her age.
Audrey is already a movie star, having been featured last week in the Puppy weekly films at the Rialto and Rivoli theatres. She is the fifth on six children, the others being Vivian, nine; Reynold, nine; Donald, seven; Milton, six; and Richard, 15 months. The other children are strong and healthy, the baby, Richard, having been pronounced 15 months by the physicians of Hardam Milk Station at 51 Avenue and 132nd Street.
The New York Child Conference of the Academy of Medicine is in session this week and many of the most distinguished physicians of the country are

New Haven, Conn.-H, W. Mosely, junior, a sophomore student in the high school, was the only colored contestant in the annual oratorical contest of the Theta Sigma fraternity held recently in the high school auditorium. He was awarded second prize, $5, his declaration being Frederick Angleshaw, Fr. Stephen Borden, a senior delivered in Douglass in 1841 at Boston.
Besides Mosely there were two juniors and two seniors, a senior winning first prize. Young Mosely is the first Negro to enter this contest and so he has the distinction of 'enging the first member of the race to win one of the prizes.

Baltimore, Md., sixteen delegates to the Republican National Convention will be chosen by the Republican State Convention, which meets here on May 25. Though a number of well known men have been clamoring for a colored delegate at large, there are so many whites squatting for the tour places that the best the race will put off of the deal will be an alternate at large. E. B. Tayler, who is an applicant to be one of the delegates at large, has had conversations with prominent white party leaders during the week regarding the proposition, a colored delegate will be chosen in the Fourth District, City Councilman Warner L. McQuinn and George A. Watty are mentioned. Jeremiah Hawkins is mentioned from the Fifth district, which takes in the large colored population in Southern Maryland.
NEGRO NOW FACTOR IN INDI USTRY AND LABOR
(Special to The New York Age)
St. Louis, Mo.—Among the many addresses delivered before the general conference of the A. M. F. Church now in its twenty-sixth session here at the Coliseum, none attracted more interest than that by Charles Banks of Mound Bayou, Miss., who declared that the Negro is now a factor in the labor and industrial situation throughout the country. This condition formerly obtained only in the South, but now it is the case in the North, East and West as well. Any discussion of the labor question with the Negro eliminated is the height of folly; the opinion expressed by Mr. Banks.
Continuing he said:
"The close of the great war, by reason of the call to the colors of a great number of young men in the North, left vacancies in that section that had to be filled, and the Southern Negro was called on to fill the places.
"The signing of the armistice and peace times have not lessened the apparent demand, so that today captains of industry and heads of organized labor are confronted with problems that are something new under the sun. The one has to decide whether he will use the Negro permanently where he has acceptably filled the places once occupied by whites and the same time take control of the labor by making it contented and comfortable and unified by maintaining agencies in welfare work and other features.
Most Win the Negro.
"And the other, the labor leader, must choose between treating the Negro in such a manner as to win him to organize labor or by the nature of things force him to work out his case with capital, preferring to hear the ill he has rather than fly to those he knows not of."
Banks stated that, in his opinion, agricultural pursuits offered the widest opportunities to the masses of the Negroes in the South. He advocated having some commission investigate the opportunities there by an elaborate study. Declaring that any proposition that works for ammunition, between the races of Negroes and whites, "It is well for us to remember in these matters where the rights of another begin. This does not in the least imply crumbling, syphilitic conduct, but it puts a premium on everyday, hard, common sense, which all people must have to take their places among the noble of mankind."

(Special to Tenn. New York Am)
Knoxville, Tenn.—The general conference of the twenty-sixth quadrennial session of the A. M. E. Zion Church in session at Knoxville, Tenn., entered upon its second week with the reports from the various general officers who head the several departments.
The daily sessions are marked with sharp debates, notable addresses from visiting clergymen and prominent laymen, and the United States.
which he said should insure a democratic church. He said that the church had been democratic in form but antragic in spirit. He made an earnest plan for more vision, more concession, and more education, especially in the past. He made a splendid speech and was warmly congratulated by all who heard.
The Rev. J. R. Stark of the Metropolitan Church delivered the fraternity.
Fraternal messages have been delivered from the A. M. E. C. M. C. and British M. E. churches by their supportive representatives. "The messages have been casted with a serious disdain for the present day problems and all have declared that the problems confronting civilization everywhere must be solved through and by the ministration of a consecrated ministry.
Among the most forceful fraternal messages delivered was that of Dr. R. H. Singleton from the A. M. E. Church. Among other things he said:
"Order, harmony and contentment must take the place of political, social and industrial order in this unhappy earth before peace and prosperity can again come to our unhappy world.
"The Council of Versailles entered upon its work without consultation with the higher power and therefore, from above, and all of its work has come to height."
Dr. J. W. Brown Makes Speech.
James W. Brown, the phenomenally successful pastor of Mother Zion Church of New York, made a most eloquent and impressive speech in reply to the fraternal greetings of Dr. Singleton. Dr. Brown called the attention of the general conference to the impending union of the three great Methodist bodies

Five Bishops Elected By The A.M.E.General Conference
Johnson and Fountain of Georgia; Carey of Illinois; Brooks of Baltimore; Vernon of Memphis
(Special to The New York Acs)
St. Louis, Mo.—Five bishops have been elected by the general conference of the A.M. E. Church, and by a curious coincidence only two states are represented as the one-time homes of the five elected. Three are native Georgians and two are from Missouri.
Dr. William Decker Johnson of Georgia was elected on the first ballot, treening the highest number of votes, 372. Dr. V. I. Carey, also a native georgian, but for twenty years a resident of Illinois, was also elected on the first ballot, with 321 votes. Dr. W. Sampson Brooks, now pastoring in Baltimore, but formerly of Missouri, was elected on the second ballot, with Dr. W. Jeremiah, of Memphis, Tennessee, and Dr. W. Fountain, president of Northeastern Browfair College, Atlanta, Ga., as the other successful candidates.
Among the candidates for the bishop were many of the most prominent men in the denomination, including the Rev. Reverdy C. Ramson of New York, editor of the Quarterly Review, the Rev. J. W. Rankin of New York, secretary of missions, the Rev. C. P. Cole of Brooklyn, N. Y., presiding elder, and a host of others.
A new episcopal district has been created, including South America as a special episcopal district. California is added to this district so that the South American bishop will have some American territory. There are eighteen districts in all.
The Bishops council was legalized and regulated. The time limit was changed giving the bishops discretionary power in returning bills for more than five years.
New, C. E. Wilson of the New York conference offered three bills amending the laws relating to the constitutions of the Sunday school Union and the local schools.
The conference voted a general in
which he said should insure a democratic church. He said that the church had been democratic in form but antracistic in spirit. He made an current plea for more vision, more concession, and more education, especially in the public. He made a splendid speech and was warmly congratulated by all who heard him.
The Rev. J. R. Starks of the Metropolitan Church delivered the first message and made a strong and powerful address. He referred to the crucifixion of Jesus and begged the bishop and weakerly applauded. Rev. Michael wrote the homage, with a

Dr. Martin is sure to be returned as secretary of education with a promise to come up for election of bishop at the next general conference. Dr. D. C. Sargas, president of Livingstone College, made a fine report which disclosed the fact that the college was enjoyable and in the attendance was the largest in the history of the institution. Dr. Sargas is proving a very popular and very efficient president and is sure to command the unstated support of all who are really interested in education and particularly the success of Livingstone College.
Another notable address was made by Dr. Wade Smith of the Inter-Church World Movement, whose pictorial presentation of the results and possibilities of the great world movement was both interesting and educational.

The election of general officers continued from Friday morning until Saturday o p. m. Pastors Ransom and Rankin having failed for the unopposed announced themselves for the reelection to their departments which created a wild sensation candidates for those offices contending that persons giving up their offices to run for bishop, should not go back making a more heated contest than in the election for the Bishopric Dr. C.

Last year's attendance exceeded that of all former attendance. Prospects for still larger attendance this year. For further information address.
A COLLAGE that has its students deserve one half their time to actual use work is so in line with common sense that we are amused that the idea had to be put in execution by an advocate as a life-liver for his distranchised man. Our great discoveries are always accidents; we work for one thing and get another. I expect that the day will come, and we log, when the great universities of the world will have to put the Tossego Idea into execution in order to save themselves from being deprived by the Colored Race.
If no perhaps Yusteges institute offers the very opportunity which he wants,
he should attend school. It is an institution and an institution.
It helps the worthy student to help himself.

THE INTER-CHURCH MOVE-
MENT.
Much newspaper space has been given to the so-called Inter-Church Movement during the past month or so, both in the reading and advertising columns of the religious and secular press. Much has been said or written about the necessity of efficient administration of church organizations and the raising of millions of dollars for church purposes. But the question as to what does it all mean, from the standpoint of true Christianity, still remains unanswered.
If the raising of the millions proposed means the prosecution of missionary effort into the darkest corners of unindustrialized America and the conversion of the barbarians who practice Lynch law and burning of human victims at the stake, the magnitude of the movement would be amply justified. If the intent was to convert every inhabitant of the United States to the conviction that Lynch law is murder and that every sinner, actual or potential, is a murderer at heart, the necessity of the movement would be recognized by every student of current history.
But so far as the movement has progressed no such great aim of redeeming the nation from its beetling sin seems to have been taken into consideration. Greater efficiency in the business administration of the churches and living salaries for the pastors seem to be the upliftarian purposes emphasized by the promoters of the enterprise. No realization of the great part the church might play is appealing the spirit of Christian living and thinking into every corner of the land seems to have entered into their conception.
Despite the indifference and apathy manifested by the churches at large on the subject of moth murder, over and amid a voice is heard among the clergy protesting against the attitude. Such utterance is those recently made by an Lepidoptera lab in Mississippi and a Roman Catholic lab in Georgia must continually find a prime response in ever relentless demonstration that teaches the advantage of the Sixth Commandment.
If the Inter Church Movement would include its aim and the threats the eradication of race hatred and intolerance from the American people, with the resulting injustice thereby engendered, it would have a cause, worthy of every effort it could exert. Negro church people throughout the country would be gratified if leaders of the Inter Church Movement would make a clear cut definite statement as to what the Movement intends as regards promotion of better race relations and the removal of race friction.
A renaissance of the true spirit of Christianity is an imperative necessity.
A HUMAN RIGHTS CANDIDATE.
As the outlook of so far appears to indicate a choice of a Republican for the next President of the United States, popular interest has become centered on the Republican race for the nomination. With the progress of the selection of delegates to the National Convention at Chicago, it appears to be anybody's race, with Senator (Irram) Johnson of California, General Leonard Wood and Governor Lowden of Illinois leading and a dark horse prophesied as a not unlikely winner.
So far as the Negro voters of the nation are concerned, not one of the candidates in the running has as yet made such a specific declaration in the favor of human rights for all men as to concentrate the sentiment of the race solidly in his support. It has therefore seemed the part of wisdom for the colored delegates from the South not to tie themselves up to any individual candidate either for reason of sentiment or for personal advantage.
Much has been charged in past convention years about the purchasability of the colored delegates from the South. If these charges were true, it must be remembered that for every black delegate who was bought, there must have been some prominent white politician who paid the price of his vote. The way to put an end to such venality in politics is to limit the use of money in bringing about the nomination of any candidate. Sixty years that have elapsed since the Negro became a citizen and a voter have worked a vast change in the sentiments and aspirations of the race. Two generations have come upon the scene of action within that period and they will be satisfied until they are accorded the actual measure of civil and political rights guaranteed them under the Constitution. The Republican leaders must
recognize this fact in dealing with this class of voters. Any set of men who praise or reorganize the Republican party in the South as an all-white party are making a grave mistake and including themselves.
Proper treatment and adequate representation for the Negroes in the management of party matters will do away with all these charges and bring about the united support of that candidate, who best exemplifies the doctrine of human rights for all creeds and colors.
WHERE THE SOUTH FAILS.
WHERE THE SOUTH FAILS.
One thing that the leaders of the white South fail to take into account, when they are discussing the Negro and the way to keep him in his place, is the growth of the ideals and aspirations of the Negro during the past half century. The training and education of the race during this period has been based largely on standards accepted and defined by the civilization of the white man.
The black man has accepted these same standards and his strivings have ever been to attain the plane of perfection laid down by the laws and traditions of the newer civilization of America. So fully has he become imbued with the spirit of American citizenship that he is not going to accept the white Southerner's idea of what "this place" should be. He is going to make a place for himself in this country and has already begun to do it. There is a part for him to play in the industrial and political future of the nation and he has been preparing to play that part despite many obstacles.
Those organizations for general development that fail to recognize the ideals and aspirations of the Negro and seek to limit his advancement with the rest of humanity, are misleading their followers and doing harm to the cause of humanity. Such organizations as those relating to labor, the church and welfare movements in general, can learn more of the true aspirations of the Negro by personal contact and giving need to the desires expressed. The thing that stands most in the way of such a helpful contact and mutual understanding to the fear of most white people, especially in the South, that if they mingle and meet with colored people so as to learn to know the race, it will mean "social equality." This nightmare seems to worry the average white Southerner more than anything else. If they were a portion of his sample white superiors as he damn should be the last thing to worry about.
A Southern white college president recently recognized the need for better relations between the races, by urging the Southern Methodist preachers to strive to get into helpful touch with leaders of the colored people and to take a stand for fairer and friendlier treatment of the race. Such a policy would lead to better understanding of the Negro as a status as a human being, with the aspirations and ambitions common to all Americans. When the white South realizes that the Negro is a human being and ceases to hug the bugaboo of social capital, there will be some hope for the regeneration of that section.
LOOKING AFTER THE GIRLS.
Since the Royal Welfare Club has con-
cluded its drive and its club house has
become a reality, attention has been de-
treated to a somewhat similar movement
for the benefit of the girls of Harlem.
The support of this movement in behalf
of the under privileged girls should not
be left entirely to those white friends
who have joined in starting the move-
ment.
The propriety and necessity of provi-
ding such an institution for the girls is
so generally recognized as to require no
further argument in its taxation. That the
colored people of Harlem can and
should take at least twenty percent of
the money needed for its support may
also be taken for granted.
With Mrs E. P. Roberts, Mrs Helen
Curtis, Mrs Vallati Maxwell and Mrs
Helen Lanning leading the movement,
its progress along the lines laid out
should be assured. Contributions to
turther its purposes will be glacially
received by Tua Aor and transmitted to
the promoters of the movement.
THE SYCOPHANTIC PREACHER.
One of the saddest drawbacks to the real progress of the Negro in the South is the type of preacher, who either from fear or capidity is willing to play the role of exponent and apologist for the white rulers of that section. According to this fawning apologist, "the King can do no wrong."
The latest example of this kind of stuff is furnished in a lengthy letter published in the Macon, Ga., *Telegraph*, to which is appended the name "Kew, Judson Dinklin, Cordelle, Ga." This critical decoy states that his purpose is to "speak a word to the discontented portion of my people, the Negro rate." The purpose of his employment is revealed all too soon when he says "it is not good for you to go North."
The breaking of labor contracts, is heavily dwell upon "as sins in the sight of God and of man" on the part of the Negro—but nothing is said as to the failure of the white planters to keep their part of the agreement. The cost of living and the cold winters of the North are also pictured as additional reasons why the Negro should remain in the South.
But the meat of the coconut is found in the following disingenuous apology for the conditions that drive the Negro from the South:
Home of you can offer no better protection for either North or South than that you go for better protection of the law. The law here gives you every protection you need, and no longer as you believe yourselves are will not trouble you, but it will be
an inspiration to you to carry on the work of our Master, and live in peace and prosperity among the people who believe in him and willing to help a good Christian colored man or woman. But when you take to lying, stealing, breaking things that is wrong in the sight of God, of course the hand of the law will take hold of you, just as it does things that are wrong in the sight of acts and does right, to him the law is right and it will genetle him.
But this sort of stuff has lost its power to fool the Negroes of the South. The people for whom it is intended know better than the writ of it the falsity of the situation it pretends to portray. The only effect of such apologies is to avoid disgust and contempt for the religious leader who is weak enough to attempt to fool his own people. His influence for good is destroyed and he might better vacate his pulpit and endeavor to his white masters in some other capacity. As a dey duck thick to deceive and deside others into captivity he is a rank failure.
The advent of the women of the race into politics is thus greeted by the Birmingham, Ala., Reporter.
"A presidential computer is impending, a place in determining not only issues but presidential possibilities as well. Already the women have shown their interest in these matters by giving a vote to the candidates. The movement started in Chicago and followed closely upon the head of the general's now much-talked-about speech delivered at the convention. "But it is with the men of the race that her largest work is to be done. We sincerely believe that it is in this direction that the women of the race will be courage, honesty, and unwavering devotion to principle is what we vision, the largest measure coming to the race. The reason of the responsibility of the body is been placed in the hands of our women."
This is a large contribution to race assets attributed to the coming of the women into the political arena. It all these hopes are realized the effect in raising the political status of the Negro will be unmeasurable.
The following indictment of the failure of the churches to meet the needs of the times was recently voiced by the Pittsburgh, American:
Religion is falsely considered by too many of our churches right there in our church walls a second-day salting of one a congregation. But religion is misstabally a part of a society, a government, and a social life, but the little organization, though which rejection is evasived, has fallen behind, because of the very fact that it has little real leadership in meeting the needs of the day.
What our churches need most is an awakening to a trainee system of service. Until our church organ systems are fully trained, it is impossible for them to assume leadership and have guidance in matters political, educational, social and economic, they cannot be branded with the shameful drama o f failing institution.
Such a bugle blast should awake the churches to a realization of what is expected of them.
Education as a means to training a household is summed up by the philosophic editor of the Biblical Papers as follows:
When a person has been allowed to work with a church organ, he is expected to be a supervisor and then can make himself rededict, back to the person of the church organ, and then be a teacher and then an individual.
A birth writer for her work would be endowed by most people living with a statement or case. A Virginia Phila delphina educator used to say that the child and/or education was to make the object to earn his living. Other authors have used the attainment of culture as an object of education. For this age or education the upkeep of the human machine must be a primary consideration.
The achievement of Southern culture as a human being through the course of life by the Houston (Toy) Observer as follows.
A citizen who owns his home, no matter what his vocation, is a master as well as a member of the company, as well as an employee in an important standard of comfort and prosperous employment. To own a home is a long step toward the possession of a suburban home, and one in which the dividends are secure and always timely.
On the other hand ownership of a home entails some obligations and responsibilities, and ties the owner to one location. Still, in these days of high rents and scarce apartments the home owner has some advantages over the tenant, even if he has to pay higher taxes.
A writer in the Kansas City Call, who declares that he is not "one of those Negroes who have alided faith in the future of the black race in America," thus unbooms himself on the subject of the constitutional amendments affecting the race:
"The Temperance advocates have invoked every proper legal expedient to destroy the powerful liquor interests
in this country and have completed congress to apply to this amendment the "appropriate" legislation that will allow the law to promote the general welfare. The human wrecks caused by intemperance, the great number of crimes caused by the indiscriminate use of alcohol, the manhood and womanhood of the human face, and the diabolical use to which it has been put—all these and reasons that make manhood and womanhood of the human welfare is not promoted by the general and free use as a beverage by all the people. The legal machinery of government has been used to destroy plants manufacturing it and to punish those who offer it for sale. Now if the government can do all these things to foster and patient law, why cannot the same agencies be invoked to enforce the enforcement of the provision of the XIIH, NIV and XVth amendment, or ought to be just good law as the XVIIH amendment."
Undoubtedly they can be, but it will require more effort and a greater degree of organization than have yet been expected to that end. When the American people can be brought to realize that the general welfare will be promoted by the enforcement of the Civil War amendments, steps will be taken to enforce them by appropriate legislation.
The Dallas, (Tex.) Express says:
"The Knights of Columbia opened schools for Negro ex-service men in active operation. These schools are in active operation, but the previous group of men has not been altogether encouraging. The total enrollment is three times too small as when one takes in the prey, the majority Negro ex-service men in Dallas now."
The Laptop says that those in charge of these schools hope for an enrollment of 500. It urge all ex-service men to enroll and attend. These schools afford an opportunity for business training that should not be neglected.
According to the Cincinnati Journal, Senators Harding and Poindexter were the only two of the presidential candidates to reply to a questionnaire of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, asking them to define their position on issues affecting the race. Senator Harding replied that it was not consistent with his views to take up the categorical questions asked, as the candidate must be expected to stand on the platform adopted by the convention. Very true.
Arkansas hosts of two Republican candidates to govern and the courts have to decide which one is entitled to a place on the ballot as the legal Republican nominee. The colored candidate, L. H. Blount, was nominated as a rebuff to the Lilywhites, who endeavored to read the Negroes out of the party. Lilywhites should have no place on the Republican party and its arguments should have no place on a Republican ticket.
The make-up man of the Nashville
College must be subject to temperamental
physiological stress, to put it mildly. In the
issue of April 30 he started to all the
colonial columns, or what would be the
colonial columns in a conventional
text. The 'The Way of the World'
Hermes Fortune 'After

and that he many adherents

JUDGE LYNCH
AND GEORGIA
(From Jan Jam Jams, Feb. 1920)
Judge Lynch in the year 1919 won court in sixteen states in the U.S. A Hispaniola jury is very large. Southern Heaven, Arkansas, 12 times in Mississippi, 7 times in Alabama, 7 times in Louisiana, 3 times in Florida, 4 times in Texas, 3 times in North Carolina, once in South Carolina, once in Tennessee, twice in Missouri, twice in West Virginia, twice in Colorado, once in Washington, twice in Kansas and once in Nebraska.
Judge Lynch executed 82 human beings in the U.S. A in 1919, against 4 in 1918, proving that his business on the increase by about thirty per cent. He still prefers a dark meat on his plate, white cheese on his white. He prefers males to females for 81 were males and one was a female. Rape or attempted rape accounts for 19—not one fourth of the number—and down goes the old fetish that only rapists or attempted rapists are lynched or roasted to be fresh slaughtered. Of those roasted to death three were charged with rape, two were charged with murder, one with killing a sheriff and one was just casually roasted to death without any charge. Of those roasted after death one was charged with rape, three with attempted rape, three with murder and one with innocent murder and one with innocent talk.
Murder was the charge against all of the seven white men lynched. Against the seventy-five Negroes lynched the charges were as follows: Murder 13; shooting officers 4; insulting women 4; killing officers 4; incestual talk 2; writing improper letters 2; charges not given 6; shooting a woman 1; robbing 1; getting murder sentence changed to life imprisonment 1; shooting watchman 1; shooting a woman 1; killing officer 1; killing in self-defense 1; killing over, crop settlement 1; no charge made 1; being acquitted of shooting 1; talking about race riot 1; keeping company with a white woman 1; for boasting 1; for misleading a mob 1; for appeasing a court case 1; and for discussing lynching 1.
Of the 82 lifespanes 13 were charged with murder and 19 with rape or attempted rape, thus leaving 53 charged with but minor offences.
These are the facts about 82 barbarian atrocities, accompanied by the resulting to death of 7 living human beings in this land of law. And, of course, the South, the land of "chivalry" leads the van with the Empire State to South Carolina, where the van with 21 lynchings to the her credit in the year 1919. Almost exactly one-fourth of these atrocious savages of lynchings in the U. S. A. were perpetrated in the state of Georgia. If every State in the U. S. A. had been as "Chivalrous" and as "cultured" as Georgia, there would have been 1,000 lynchings in Georgia in 1919. With less than 3 per cent of the population "chivalrous" and "Cultured" Georgia for the year 1919 provided almost 25 per cent of lynchings. What's the answer? The one answer, the only possible answer, is that Georgia is the most persistently barbarous, reticous, lawless and bloodhirsty place in the United States. With less than 3 per cent of the population "chivalrous" and "Cultured" Georgia for the lynchings no same human being can reach any other conclusion.
There are just two horns to the dilemma. Either Georgia's Negro population is the most uncontrollable, brutal and vicious in this land or her white population is the most harbored and hardened. Georgia, can perch herself on either or on both of these horns wherever she finds the sitting easier—if there be any case upon so disgraceful an enmine. "Race problems"—whether they be black or white or whether they can be white or black—cann't answer any such frozen facts. Georgia's orators and editors—and they are many and able—can pull the plugs from their oratorical reservoirs of elopement until they deluge the land and can pound out pazes of magnificent dictation all are aware of. Georgia's editor's luncheonome and can prate about their "chivalry"—till their threats split and their typewriters fall into wreckage, but they can't nullify the facts—less than 3 per cent of the population, almost 25 per cent of the lychnies for the year 90 and of all the lychnies for the year 200. Caged in these atrocious lychnies savageries not one was punished.
Why not give the Akhkood of Swat a "mandate" to regenerate Georgia?
WHY GENERAL WOOD?
T. the lioness of Tars Ac
In your paper of the 8th instant there appeared an article by one of your subscribers wherein he asked that he be enlightened on the entity of the Presidential nominee—Leonard Wood. Permit me to answer the gentleman through his eyes. He said he and others would like to know on what grounds is Wood entitled to the Presidential nomination. To this question I need only refer to Article II, Section 10 of the Constitution of the United States. It is therein provided that:
No person except a natural born citizen, or a citizen of the United States at the time of the adoption of this Constitution, shall be eligible to the office of President; neither shall an person be eligible who shall not have attained to the age of 35 years and resident within the United States.
In addition to this prerequisite, the nominee must have sufficient funds with which to carry on the campaign. Sympathy has little or no effect when the nominee is not a candidate on the sympathy ticket. He is there because this country is soliciting the aid of one who is capable of handling the problems of today. In this country sympathy is only provided the destitute—not Presidential candidate. What has Wood done for the Republican party?
Admittedly he has done very little. He has however, done enough for the campaign to entitle him to a non-partisan vote, but rather than that, he has remained faithful to the party he has actually followed in ideas, although his uniform presented him from making an outward best that he would not do, as any better nominee. He has never weakened the party he urging a split nor has he shown an inclination to run on a Democratic ticket as some of our others. From a logical point of view, the highest honors of this Country—Presidents—does not belong to any party, if belongs to the man best suited for that office, and he should, therefore, be given support of all irrespective of politics, but since we have to deal in politics, we must make him a candidate no reason for not nominating he who best represents the interest of America.
It is my impression that the Republican campaign chairman, Will Hays, was presented with a questionnaire involving the enforcement of the Fourteenth and Fifteenth Amendments, etc., his answer is that he correctly answered that the deserts express Wood's view. Hays approval is likely to be sanctioned by Wood. He is at any rate, an advocate for law and order as was recently demonstrated in Ohaka.
My candid opinion is that no better personality could fill the office than Wood. At this time when everything is being done to one familiar with foreign affairs needed, it would be disadvantageous to overlook Wood. He was governor of Cuba, has handled very important military positions, and can handle the President as well as any other aspirant, he he soldier, economist or college protector.

Judge Bynum's letter was written twelve years ago in reply to a communication received by him from Dr. J. E. Bollinger, asking for an expression of opinion on the treatment received by Negro Republicans, who had been denied admission to the 1008 state convention. Judge Bynum, regarded by the Negro Republicans as one of the few remaining pure white Republicans who has not bowed to the political Bynum, wrote letter then that is conspicuous. Proof.

Dear Eir:
Referring to your inquiry of yesterday concerning my views as to the right and autonomy of Republican voters of your race participating in the primaries and convention and to say, I believe that it is not only the right but the duty of every qualified voter, white or colored, Democrat or Republican to take part in the primaries of the convention and to qualified voter under the constitution and laws of this state he should be deprived neither of the right to take part in the primaries and Convention nor whether he belongs to the Democratic or Republican party, and if such colored voter should be nominated a delegate to any Convention convention and to the right to be in the deliberations of his
Littlewhite Idea is Un-American.
I know any political party
an offer to take the
party and merely because a voter
has a right to be qualified under the
law and laws of the state, it
should be excluded from
the voting process of the color. Such an
American and car-
tered with the teachings
of the Republican party,
and people of this country are
many. They hear their
voice of the burdens of
the party and are under the recent
Constitution of this
country. In my opinion, he dis-
covered in exercising their political
party should be encouraged to
them in every proper way.
They are entitled to vote
for the party and should vote
and should any of them
delegates they should not
be discharged from attending the Con-
sidences of the party to which they
should be given to
them. They have a right to
the primaries and Conven-
tions and should not be given to understand
underdable citizens and
welcome.

Parliamentary party is going to do with

Labor in this State because the government
in this State is not quite qualified to be a
government qualification by voting and
who, having then the legal right to
vote, will be willing by all non-working
citizens in the question of that status

make of those qualified voters political
outcaste, of consent of their order, may
be able to make of their vote

The following statements were adopted: Realizing that in this particular crisis of American History, the American Negro must come forward with some effective political action, we heartily commend the calling of this Convention by, the Republican Executive Committee, and appreciate the interest displayed by those attending its mission.
Our meeting here clearly sets forth the fact that we are properly indignant at our exclusion from party councils and indicates that some forward step should be taken to answer the sleeping presence of the Negro voters of the state.
Librarians Denounced
Therefore we denounce the action of the "Illegitimate" in preventing our participating in the party council by holding secret and illegal meetings, if held at all wholly contrary to the spirit of the Republican party, and especially do we take exception to the violent insult of forced by our nominee for governor, J. J. Parbur, in Negro citizenship in North Carolina. Under these conditions certain outstanding force demanded our attention.
obtaining facts demand our attention.
Ist. That the Negro has taxation without representation. 2nd. That the Negro needs to be taught independence of political thought and action. 3rd. That the Negro needs to be taught the value of the proper use of the ballot as an American right and duty.
Therefore be it Resolved. That we declare for equal rights before the law for all men and women; that qualification for the ballot be met equally by all men and women, that 100 per cent Americanism and loyalty be demanded of men. That we declare for the abolition of the Crown Spirit in all American institution; that leader ship must be of our own choosing and responsible to us; that labor (white and black) should have equal pay for equal work. That a Federal enactment be passed making lynching a crime against the Federal Government.

Birmingham, Ala.—True-blue Negro and white Republicans are intensely wrought up over recent developments which indicate an understanding between a certain element of the Colored Republican Club and the Lilywhite Republicans looking to the subming of the Negro Republican vote in certain precincts and the delivery of said precincts to the lilywhites.
The alleged agreement is said to have been made by W. B. Driver and other officials of the colored organization with J. T. Kenneman and Charles J. Allison, clerk and deputy clerk, respectively, of the United States District Court, readers of the lilywhite element, and the men who were responsible in 1916 for the unseating of the Negro delegates to the National Republican Convention.
Rumors and hints have been circulating for sometime to the effect that the Colored Republican Club of which Driver is the president, was being made the goat for the lilywhite faction of the party in Jefferson county, and the men responsible for the exposure are quoting Kenneman's charge against Driver of an alleged breach of faith as proof of the truth of these rumors.
Making Club: the "Goat."
Credit for exposure of the plot is given to Dr. U. G. Mason, R. T. Jackson, J.'O. Diffay, T. H. Aldrich and Judge N. L. Steel, with some others of the true librarian men of the party. Emphasis was given to the matter when in Beat meet counsel from faithful charged driver to breadth of faith that Driver had promised to deliver Beat No. 9 (to Kennamer) in exchange for Beat No. 37.

HOW TO GET THE PICTURE OF THE "HELL FIGHTERS." "FIRST TO THE RHINE."
That remarkable oil painting by Woolf, showing the march of Col. Bill Hayward's famous New York City regiment, the old 15th, denominated by the French as "The Hell Fighters," attracted the attention of hundreds who viewed it in the window of "The New York Age" building at 230 West 135th street. Colored, white, men, women, children, all were alike attracted by the striking and lifelike portrayal of the New York boys who were the first of all the Allied forces to reach the banks of the German Rhine. The picture is valued at $3,000, and is the property of Col. Hayward, who has hung it upon the wall at his home.
"The New York Age" has secured from Artist Woolf and Col. Hayward the sole right to reproductions of this great picture, and accordingly there has been made a reproduction, 8 by 12 inches, printed in the original colors, on heavy paper, suitable for framing. The gorgeous colors of the original, by the masterly art of the engraver and printer, are reproduced with absolute fidelity.
And these reproductions are available only to subscribers to "The Age." Not a copy will be sold direct and from no other source can they be obtained. A copy will be sent upon receipt of a subscription for one year, with 25c. added for mailing tube and postage, or $2.25 in all.

EXCEPTIONAL. OPPORTUNITY
THE STAGE AND ATHLETICS
"From Harlem To The Rhine" Big Screen Hit
(By LESTER A. WALTON.)
FROM Harlem to the Rhine,
a motion picture showing the
old 15th Regiment "over
here and "over there," was success-
fully presented at the Lafayette
Theatre last Saturday evening.
Although months have elapsed since
the signing of the Armistice, the
marked interest in and enthusiasm
for the film at Saturday's midnight
performance could not have been
greater during the period of war.
At 11 o'clock nothing was available but standing room, so big was the demand for seats. It was apparent to all present that the colored public is hungry for moving pictures which race soldiers appear on the screen in a favorable and complimentary light. While it is to be regretted that "From Harlem to the Rhine" has not been produced before this, at the same time it is incumbent upon us to assume the role of a philosopher and exclaim: "Better late than never!"
Saturday evening's entertainment was given under the auspices of the Veteran Corps, 15th Regiment, incorporated, which organization is made up of those who saw service in the 15th National Guard during 1916 and 1917 and who were with the regiment overseas. The Veteran Corps is now engaged in a drive to purchase a home, and to this fund has been applied Saturday night's receipts.
"From Harlem to the Rhine" consists of five reels of pictures and over fifty slides. The regiment is first shown in its infancy when Bert Williams was a member, later on the rifle range at Peek-skill and subsequently in France and Germany. One of the scenes to occasion thunderous applause was that showing the regiment, in action on the string line. The triumphal march into Germany, "Jim" Europe's band entertaining civilians of Tectonite extraction, the return of the "Hell Fighters" to New York and the historic march up Fifth Avenue and through Harlem were other scenes which stirred the big audience.
During the performance musical numbers were rendered by members of the old 15th Regimental Band.
An incident not on the program occurred in the balcony when a young man, said to be a Cuban, refused to take off his hat when the Stars and Stripes were flashed during the playing of the "Star Spangled Banner." He was one of the hundred or more standing in the rear. When upbraided for not tendering the proper respect to Old Glory he declared the American flag meant nothing to him. Then, several ex-soldiers wanted to give him a good trouncing and would have accomplished their desire had not cooler heads interfered in the neck of time.
The public is indebted to Col. William Hayward for "From Harleen to the Rhine," for it was due largely to his efforts that the Negro point with unbridled pride to one screen production, featuring (without attempt to disparage) the colored soldier in the World War. Several officers of the "Hell Eighters," including Major LEpernance, accompanied by his wife, were present at the exhibition. Reynold H. Lightson, Charles Wright and Leonard L. Payne were members of the Committee on Arrangements.
ACTS AND PICTURES
PLEASE AT LAFAYETTE
An even and entertaining bill was served to the Lattesey patrons the first half of the week. There was not a weak act. Allen and Stokes brought to Harlem a turn something out of the ordinary, as Allen, besides being a comedian, is quite adept on the violin. Miss Stokes is attractive in appearance and guts over a song well.
For years Muriel Singergold has been awarded as the winner colored comedian and while she has taken on the role, she is able to execute some difficult steps. In Watts she has a capable character who does not connue his work in singing and talking.
The Long Acre Trio could improve its act by doing less talking and more singing, as much of their talk is not funny. The Swans and the seal come for much applause. Cook and Valentine have a pleasing turn and started the bill off in lively fashion.
The feature photo play first half of the week was "The Price Woman Pass." For the first three slays of next week Lionel Barrymore will be seen in "The Valley of Night." This photo drama is built upon one of the strongest, if the strongest plots. It is possible for a woman suffering an injury from an accident to find himself in real life. Dr. Angel and Mr. Hyde character. Such a story is "The Valley of Night" from Victor Maples famous novel. This thrilling photo offers ample opportunity for discussion on this subject. Lionel Barrymore plays the part of a district judge who suffered a serious injury caused by an accident. The fourth episode of that fascinating serial "The Lost City" will be featured in conjunction with comedic arts.
on Tuesday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday of next week a big surprise feature in play will hold forth with new and writing short films. Added to which a movie vaudeville bill. The management is changed the Cain's Brothers Country, based as the only colored acro-commercials in the world.
"FROM HARLEM TO RHINE"
AT THE PUTNAM SUNDAY
Brooklynites will be given an opportunity to see "From Harlem, to the Rhine" Sunday, near at the Putnam Theatre, arrangements baying been made to show the picture in Brooklyn owing to the big hit it made Saturday night at the Lafayette Theatre.
Brooklyn furnished the old 15th Regiment with one battalion and the surviving soldiers, their relatives and friends are expected to turn out in large numbers to see the latest film success. Vaudeville acts will be given in connection with "From Harlem to the Rhine."

The Sporting World From All Angles
By "Ted" Hooks, Sporting Editor
It is said that two hundred men have applied to Governor Smith of this state to head the boxing commission authorized by the Walker Boxing Bill, which now awaits the governor's signature. In the majority of cases all have volunteered reasons why they are eligible for the office. There is one man who has not sought the office but whom most folks agree is fitted for it. This one man is Chas. Thorley. New York sportsman and business man. Thorley from all accounts is well informed on the "ins and outs" of the boxing game, having once been actively engaged, and at all times a close tollower of it. He is a successful business man, as proven by his florist establishment on 5th avenue and in large cities of Europe.
DON'T FAIL TO HEAR America's Foremost Negro Choir ST. MARK'S M. E. in Cavalleria Rusticana By Mascagni Grand Opera in Concert Form, and Other Surprise Features. Grand Cherun 80 Voices, with Solists At Carnegie Hall Monday Eve. May 24 57th Street & 7th Avenue At 8 o'Clock
A reporter from this paper, upon investigation, found that several of his employees, who are Negroes, have been in his employ for eighteen and more years. One of these employees is Willie Gardeen, a resident of Harlem, and now head buyer for Thorley. There are other colored men with trusted positions in the establishment now located on 5th avenue near 49th street. From a young man who was formerly in Thorley's employ but is now engaged in other work our representative learnt that Mr. Thorley is a very blunt man, treating everybody pretty rough but never raising the color question. The AG reporter not having been satisfied with these reports, which tend to show that Mr. Thorley recognizes merit regardless of color, made serious efforts to engage the florist in conversation but without result.
Phone messages failed to draw Mr. Thorley out. None of the employees dared to speak for publication yet one informed the reporter that Mr. Thorley was undecided about accepting the office it it were tendered him.
In the event Mr. Thorley does consider accepting the office of Chief Boxing Commissioner of New York State, we should like to know if he will recognize merit in boxers, the same as he does employees in his business, and regardless of race color. Will compel the champions to night all their classes and thereby abolish the impersonal color but which has done its part in forming the game into popular distractions? Will he give up boxing clubs that bill the meeting of colored boys against whites when said clubs have no contacts for such engagement and tool the public?
It Mr. Thorley will answer, these questions and in the first way in which they ought to be answered. Tim. Will gladly join the others in ordering his candidacy to the governor.
Where do you stand Mr. Thorley?
Where Are You Going on Decoration Day?
The natural question at this stage of the month is where are you going on Decoration Day? Some few poles are going out of town but the majority of the towns in town and out will wind their way to Manhattan Casino during some part of the day originally on Mary list. The Bon-Lou Bios have organized for the sole purpose of giving them many friends a good time on Decoration Day and thereafter. These bios deserve great credit for the elaborate way in which they have gone good preparations; for their quests on the next day. Bob Dugan, whose name does not look right in print unless it has "Mr. Dugan" or after it, has not only been devoted president of this social tradition but has been made General Manager of the shebang. We don't get the Bon-Lou Bios reason for calling Bob Gouenon, Manager unless the new title came after he maneuvered his charges so skillfully in the basket ball world.
A large billboard star entertainers will be put on in an afternoon and evening performances by the Bon Jon Roy. The feature of their program will be a Japanese girl in original oriental dance. Mr. Dodge considers himself lucky in gaming such an attraction. The girl who is considered one of the most beautiful in her native country will be assisted by a whole retinue of her pantrymen which will add to her international flavor to the program. The Japanese girl in itself is costing the Bon Jon Roy $200. A commission sum, the feel that Hattien wishes to generate, fear some of its own products at their attractions. After booking with the entertainers held by the manager Bob has been locked Nixon and Martinez Harris for Hawaiian dances. Milton and Personal Albeit in songs, Erne Johnson and a series of lesser lights.

Antwerp, Belgium. The official opening of the Olympic Stadium, originally planned for May 9th, was postponed to May 2d by the Belgian Olympic Committee. This change was brought on by the absence of the King from Belgium on the earlier date, and a desire of his to attend the fete, which is to accompany the inaugural ceremony.

Toys with Opponents at Physical Show and Gym Meet.
Those who took in the Swimming Show and Vynn Meet of the 153rd Street Y. M. C. A. last Saturday were afforded the grandest bill ever given for a small admission. The feature of the night's proceedings was the appearance of Harry Wills, as apparent for championship honors in the heavy weight division. Wills took on two of the biggest men that could be procured, for two three-round engagements. Mexican Joe Lawson was the first victim and seldom did Wills lay a glove on him other than to tilt him about the ring, owing to his muscular size. The old man rather demonstrated what he could do by feuding Lawson into positions that in a regular bout would have meant his downfall.
A larger and more willing candidate was sent forth for Wills' second opponent in the person of Kay Bennett. Ray was very willing during the first round and Wills had to do more than confine his efforts to tenting and blocking as he had done with Lawson, in order to stave off the willing one. Big Harry therefore jabbed Bennett a treal time and feinted and got an opening for a right cross which opening he only showed to his opponent and the public by showing his gloves into it. Thereafter the willing Mr. Bennett centered all his Willingness on keeping out of Wills' way. At times the latter followed him up so closely that Bennett took a few shots at Harry Robinson who was refereeing and seemed unable to keep out of the marathoner's way.
Secretary Taylor of the "Y" made a big hit with the crowd when he introduced Wills and spoke of the batter's willingness to meet Jack Dempsey for the heavyweight crown.
Other interesting hints were put on between Harris and Blackbourne, and Harry Robinson and Panama Joe Gans. Each pair had a three round encounter and bid Charlie Mock, who seems to be Mr. Kiddle's right hand, to win. The winner was Wavley Harvey, who acted as timer throughout the training and never let the boys go too long despite all exertment.
Swimming Events Beneficial.
Dr. B. T. Wuthers, as chairman of the athletic council of the YWCA, is compiling wonderful work by having Mr. Kindle and his many assistants instruct the members on how to take care of themselves in deep water. Many a winkle in sweet heart will tell more contented this summer when their boy goes to the shore knowing that Mr. Kindle has taught him to swim. This YW athletic director undoubtedly has a wonderful personality to group such a band of workers about him as Parker, former captain and manager of Columbia Cubs, Charlie Mock, one of the best known all around athletes in all Challenger Miller, Townsend, Dr. Stone, W. H. Holmes, W. H. Harris, Coughen and Smith, theighting brother-in-law and the large array of personal individuals whom you look upon.
the 135th Street "Y" as home. Mr. Knudd has proven himself a marvel by keeping the said group about him and at the same time, keeping down petty realities. His success proves his fitness for the work to say nothing of his wonderful exhibitions last Saturday night.
A crowd much too large to get into the large room holding the swimming pool was on hand at 8:30 to see the mermen go through their capers in the water. The first event was the 40-yard swim and had as entrants A. C. Carter, C. Miller, T. P. Webater, W. Kraiffe, J. W. Williams, J. W. Smith, R. Moses and W. Ramsey. A very spirited race ensued from the instant the men took the water at the world go. First place was garnered by Carter, Raiffe pulling a close second. In the plunge for distance, C. L. Brown, J. W. Smith and W. Raiffe finished in the order named with 28 and 22 feet respectively. Smith also accounted for another first place when he won the 60-yard medley race which required entrants to use two given strokes for the first two legs of the distance to be covered and any stroke for the finish. Smith was the only swimmer who didn't suffer disqualification. Other swimming events were the under-water swim in which T. P. Webster greatly excelled the others with 155 feet; plain and fancy diving by Wilson, Raiffe and Smith; 20-yard swim won by Carter; and the water feature of all, a rescue exhibition by Norman Lucas, and P. Turner, life guards at Asbury Park and Atlantic City respectively.
The Rescue.
Turner was first introduced by Chalk langer and took the water to illustrate the Trojan Crawl stroke. He had twice covered the distance of the tank and had again reached the center when he let up a yell for help. Lucas was in the water like a shot and before the interested spectators knew what had happened had cleverly triggered his comrade to safety and planted him on one side of the pool. Turner, the rescued lifeguard, brought forth ripples of laughter when he kissed the savor of his life. J. W. Williams then demonstrated the single overhead purpose stroke, after which every one made their way to the gymnasium. The c they were greeted by good music furnished by Drex at the piano and Butler on the harmonica. These musicians accompanied the gymnasts in their exhibitions which included High kick and travelling rings by W. H. Holmes, high bar, D. Stone, tumbling, Meller, Townend and Kindle; swinging rings, W. H. Harris, pello right, Cough and Smith; shock wire walking, Kindle; boxing bouts, Harris vs. Black-burne, Harry Robinson vs. Panama Joe Gans, Harry Wills vs. Max, Joe Lawson, Harry Wills vs. Ray Bennett.

the 100 yd, dash by William Thompson,
who received the liberal handicap
of 72 yards. Morse, starting from
scratch, surpassed the large crowd of
athletic followers on hand by his
scoring return to form. Only inches
separated the former champion from
his club mate when the latter braseted
the tape in the last time, at 10.15
seconds.
Thompson then proved himself pretty
much of all around perimeter by
tying Benjamin Lauder in the high
hump after a very spirited duel. With
the bar at 5 ft. 10 in. Thompson and
Lauder were the only survivors and
it was decided not to pump off the tie

their feet by his stirring finish in this event which enabled him to just jip Herbert Johnson at the tape. This was Brunson's first start since he returned from France where he was fighting for his Uncle. Close followers of the running game voiced the opinion that he is better than ever before in his career. If the time given for this event was correct, Brunson should be able to win many a mile race in these parts this season. A 4.58 mile in May should mean a 4.38 mile in July, which should bring such a runner home ahead of many of our local travellers. The victory of William Ash in the 220-yard dash brought about lots of comment. Percy Verwayen had been looked upon as a sure winner of that race. Ash and "Bunk" Jones received but 2 yards each on Verwayen but the latter was unable to get better than third. The time recorded, 3.55, does not show the entrants to be anywhere near championship caliber.

Bacharach Giants Win Double Header On Elliott's Field
The Bacharach Giants set a precedent last Sunday, being the first colored ball club to play on the Brooklyn National League Ball Park. The popular Harlem and Atlantic City team celebrated their first Sunday on the Brooklyn grounds by taking both games of a double header from Guy Empey's Treat 'Em Roughs.

In order to make sure of starting right on the grounds where the Bacharachs are to call home when the Brooklyn Dodgers are out of town, Cast. Dick Redding took the mound himself and sent Rolo in to work as backstop. At motion during the game did the Treat Roughs have a chance to cap Dick Redding's man. The Bacharachs hit the opposing pitcher at will getting two runs in the first, two more in the fourth, in the fifth and two in the seventh, making a total of seven runs while they held the Treat 'Em Roughs worstest.
Bscharach's Best Battery
It is hard to believe that any battery has ever worked with more using effects on Eibers Field than "Common Ball" Dick and Cuban Rohd did last Sunday. At any time has Redding had better control. His last ones were breaking perfectly and his slow ball was making Gemp Emper's men break their backs. "It is this wonderful change of pace that has made Dick Redding a general while a few years ago he was nothing more than an exceptional speed ball artist."

I am so much at home as at home and
in the ball hat. The Cuban seemed
to have no moral judgment in calling
for that each batsman didn't want.
Davis hit the and Reddings's perfect co-
operation the Treat. Em Roughs got
on the hits of the cannon ball artist
during nine times at bat. What
he played was the race he
would first play to back Pierce up
following each batter's effort to reach
Safety. Just before the close of
Safety, brought Landy made a stop
in that brought the crowd to its
feet. Landy was very applauded by
the entire grand bench. Though he made
way to the bench. Though he made
speakers were in the minority, they
armed them since lovers of good base-
all regal figures of the color of the men's
men who played it.
A short warming up and "String Beam" Williams was sent in to work in the good engagement for the Bacharach with Yank behind the bat. The first Treat Lau Run player got a hit to get another man from that team reached first in that stanza.
When the Bacharach came to bat, he began to make things look bad for his opponents when Pugh, their lead man could to right; Marcellus following beat out a bant to first sending Pugh to second; Lundy, who was next line drove a hard ground to the Bacharach who made a pretty triple shooting his bag, shooting the ball to bat and catching the first baseman's throw.
neither side scored in the second in a despite desperate efforts by each to break the calm. However, the third saw the beginning of real hostilities. The Rough first man up knocked out a man double; their next man beat out a man on second to third. The next men fouled out to Pierce and Yank teams. Mank then threw down to someone to catch the man napping. Lundy snatched the man on third raced home. That Rough's first run in big game and their first run of the day. For Bachachus more than made up for at their time the loss of some points. Thereafter it was a near loss long-oh, how long for the Treat Rough. In the 7th, with the move in the Bachachus's favor, Capt. Bedding had Sring Garrison give way. Treadlight on the mound. The latter is a little wild at the start man had

score on "Tread." This youngster
shows wonderful improvement since have-
ing been taken in hand by Capt. Dick
Redding and Uncle Java Cannon ex-
pects big things from him. On Tread-
well's first time at bat in Ebberts Field,
she smashed out what came near being a
home run. As it was he easily got three
bases on his stall. This incidentally led
to Redding's informing us that Tread
is commonly known by his clubmates as
Bacharach Babe Ruth.
The final score was 13 to 9 with the
Bracharach Giants on the long end.
To Get Revenge.
With himself and Kojo to work in one game and possibly Red Ryan and Yank in the other, Capt. Dick Redding has hopes of taking both games of the double header with Tesureau's Bears next Sunday at Dyckman Oval. A double victory will simply tie these two teams standing for Tesureau's clan has three wins to their credit over the Bacharachs while the latter is only credited with one. Redding is eager to be on an equal footing with the Dyckman-Street team and will bend every effort to get there Sunday.
LINCOLN GIANTS
WIN TWO GAMES
Last Sunday the Lincoln Giants added two more games to their long string of victories when they outplayed the Richcreek Athletics in one game and the Chevrolet team in another.
Both games resulted in big scores, 879 in the first and 1411 in the second, caused by the free use of the bat by both teams supplemented by costly errors.
First Game:
Lincoln Giants: 3 0 6 0 0 0 x-9
Richcreek Athletics: 0 0 2 0 0 0 0-2
Second Game:
Lincoln Giants: 1 0 8 1 0 1 3 x-14
Chevrolet: 1 4 0 3 0 0 0 0-11
Since their game last Sunday, it is reported that the Lincoln's have lost Cuber, their star second basemath. "Culver is said to have been seen boarding a train for Canada early this week. It is believed that he intends signing up with Pop Wattkins.
TESREAU'S BEARS TO
PLAY THE BACHACHES
Jeff. Tesareau's Bears, added two more wins to their already long list of victories last Sunday by defeating the Highbridge and the Emeralds in their weekly double header attraction.
Of the twelve games played thus far, Tearan's bears have dropped but one. That one went to the Bacharach Giants on the second Sunday of their meeting. The Bears had twice trounced the Bacharach's on the Sunday before and won the second game on the day that the Bacharach's beat them.
Next Sunday will see the Bacharach's with their new lineup trying to register a double win against Testane's hard hitting Bears. Ick Redding is anxious to remove the stain of the Bacharach's double defeat on their first day in New York this season and feels that a double win Sunday will do so. Redding is sure to be seen, therefore, in which over game Jeff works.
'Sunday will be 'Show-down Day.' For the first time this season, a colored umbrella will be seen on Dyckman Oval. Connin Savage (business manager of the Bears, remoted to let Uncle Jawn Conner bring along his own umbrella following the questionable de-

SEEN AND HEARD
IN THE BASEBALL WORLD
Recent communications from the West announce that the Bacharach Glants have been unanimously accepted in the Negro National League headed by Ruhe Foster. The Bacharachs accordingly have been invited to make a western joust but have not as yet accepted the invitation. The affiliation of the Bacharachs with the Negro National League means that the best western teams will be seen here this season in action against "Ucle Jawn" Connor's clan. This includes Ruhe Foster's American Glants, and all teams of like caliber. A wonderful spectacle they will present, playing on Ebbets Field. Crowds will journey all the way from Philadelphia and Washington to see them in action against each other. Uncle Jawn Connor is figuring on a crowd numbering close to 15,000 the day the Bacharachs play Foster's team.
John Lloyd's Rival
John Lloyd has been the kingspin around short for about twelve years. At last, Lloyd has a rival who will make him speed up or have his exalted position. The rival in question is Dick Lundy, who is the most talked of infielder on a semi-pro team in the East to-day. Lloyd at his best was no better than Lundy is right now around second. Not only is this boy good in the field but he possesses batting skills from every pincher he faces. On his first Sunday with the bacharachs in New York, he put one clean over Duckman Oulce (when Jeff Tresaura fed him one he liked. He has been hitting consistently ever since.
Only one thing keeps Landy from being rated over Lloyd now and that is his youth. He is scarcely more than a boy and gets genuine pleasure out of the games in which he plays. Landy's tender years may be a drawback now in the comparison between him and Lloyd but his youth may be to his advantage before the season is out for "Youth must be served."
We are still wondering if any of the Barachys excluding Capt. Dick Redding are allowed to arrange games for their team.
From recent reports one of their players has been dickering with white interests very much recently. Maybe he's trying to get games or be made game of.
"Lincoln Giants Out to Win Los Angeles championship
The Lincoln Giants cannot claim a local championship, a colored championship or any other championship and have any one except their owners recognize their claim unless they play every team in the field to oppose them. They have started the season by losing two games to the Royal Giants. They utterly refuse to face the Bacharach yet at this early date they are grabbing after a championship. They may scream. "We claimed it first," but whatever team deserves the title at the end of the season will be named by Tirz Acr. and will meet the winner of the Western League.
Penn Red Caps Defeated.
Mamaroneck, N. Y.-The Mamaroneck E. A., by hard hitting, were able to down the Penn, Red Caps, 11 to 8 Manager Durbar sent "Shang" Johnson, former Bacharach Giant pitcher, in for the "Caps." Johnson twisted fine ball except in the first and eighth. For the Red Caps the hitting of Baynard and Lankford were the features. For the Mamaroneck team, "Hemic" Wagner, former short stop of Boston American League Red Sox, was the fielding star.
Howard Beata Hampton.
Hampton, Va.—In their second game this season, the fast nine from Howard University won from Hampton's baseball artists by the score of 4 to 3. From the very beginning, the fans who crowded the ball field were thrilled by the lively manner in which both teams warmed up. The game was featured by the strong pitching of Brown of the Howard team and the sensational fielding of Long in short for Hampton.

OLYMPIC TRYOUTS
IN NEW ORLEANS
New Orleans has been added to the number of cities in which Olympic tryouts will be held for The make-up of the American team. As announced a few weeks ago in The Ace, only three cities were to have shared this honor but the National body has seen fit to obey the requests of southern republicans to host the Olympic tryouts. We take it that the southern cities will use the same data. June 26, as Philadelphia and Chicago are using while Pamdeman, Cal., and the other tryout city, attends to July 3rd.
The head the National A. A. U. has given to the requests coming from representatives of southern athletic organizations should be a good thing for the American Olympic team. It would be calling for 400 great an outlay to have the boys below the "Mason and Dixon" line journey all the way to any one of the first three cities selected to try and win the right to defend their country's athletic prowess abroad.
Are Necess to Get a Chance?
But the National body knows of the treatment accorded Negroes generally in the South. Members of that body have seen instances where white boys from southern sections have absolutely refused to take part in races, in which there were colored entrants. Happenings of the sort has invariably kept them out of such races hereabouts even though they had probably travelled long distances for the event. We are anxious to know if the same conditions are to exist down in their section where these southern aristocrats rule with no iron hand. Will they be kept out of races because they refuse to compete with black men or will an entrant who is found to be a Negro be automatically disbarred?
We hope the National body has
looked into this matter. The Act would like to call to the southern representatives and the National body minds that some of those very Negroes fought in Belgium for this country.
ON THE TENNIS COURT
N. Y. TENNIS ASSN. ELECTS OFFICERS.
At the regular meeting of the New York Tennis Association last Monday, May 17th, the following men were elected to office for the ensuing year: Gerald Norman, President; J. S. Watson, Vice-President; Norbert Bain, Secretary; Chas. Buchanan, Asst. Secretary; Ilias Mainaoford, Treasurer.
Most of the officers were elected by a unanimous vote but not so with the president. A spirited context took place between Gerald and Conrad Norman, two brothers, who represented the Flushing and Arrow Tennis Club respectively. Gerald beat his brother out by one vote receiving 7 of the delegates stamps of approval while Conrad got but six.
A new club under the umbrella of the Manhattan Tennis Club applies for membership in the New York Tennis Association and was accepted. The Manhattan Tennis Club has for its president O. C. Newton; secretary, Northeast Bain; and treasurer, Foster Austin. All of these men have in fellow years been associated with the Ideal Tennis Club. We take it for granted that they intend drawing out wherever they procure grounds.
The loss of Bain and Austin will meant a serious blow to the Ideal Tennis Club in playing strength. For years they have been cleaned in New York's upper team and Bain closed play in the first national ten. Every cloud has a silver lining hereover and there may chance for these寡quet wilders to improve their game and import their knowledge to others in a club of their own. We wish to go on record for wishing the Manhattan Tennis Club grand success.
To Play White Clubs.
Following a suggestion coming from Chas, Buchanan, a committee has been sent out from the N. Y. T. A. to investigate the possibility of arranging games with white clubs in and around New York. It is Mr. Buchanan's plan to have each club send to the N. Y. T. A. one or two of its best players. This aggregation

Miss Rae Vivien Ideas
Miss Rae, the 'Little Jamaican Woman' joins purrs a passage, sings on the Ideal Tennessee Courts when she and a member of the Colonial Club players paid the Ideals a visit. Miss Stace engaged in spirited singles first with Norbert and later with his brother James Bain. In the last set played with the former, Miss Rae hold Norbert to a 9-7 set. This spins wonders for this little lady's game this year for we think Norbert him is playing better tennis right now than at any time previously in his career. He is hitting the ball harder and seemingly with much more confidence. Miss Rae's stand against him makes it seem apparent that she will duplicate her performances of the most two years by cleaning up in Indies' singles.
Play for Warren Trophy Begins
Saturday.
Play for the challenge cup dropped two years ago by G. Herman, president of the Ideal Tennis Club begins Saturday, May 2nd. A large list of games are expected and a most spirited contest. A great improvement has been applied to most of the local players. All soon bent on getting their best foot forward this year. Winning games has been thrown to the whiff but all have their minds set on perfecting their pet game. We predict that the Herren Trophy which was won the first year by James Raim and the second year by Rampage, will again find a new owner by the time this tourney in through.
The playing off of the finals will take place on Decoration Day afternoon.

What does your reader "C" down by "should we call them by their first name?" Has he not brain enough to know that calling a made a home won't change that animal's disposition?
