As to cleanliness, if take negro would suffer by comparison Americans are experiencing great difficulty securing Pullman car and other adequate railroad accommodations in some sections of the United States. Other citizens, and even foreigners, are accorded every courtesy while traveling, but when Negroes make requests for upper or lower berths, offering to pay in good old currency issued by Uncle Sam, they are subjected to most disgraceful treatment. Unless taken for white, usually they are compelled to resort to subterfuge or adopt heroic measures to keep them sitting up for days and nights. A vast understanding exists among employers in Pullman offices and conductors on trains running out of and through the South to keep Negroes out of Pullman cars. Whether implicitly sleeping orders issued by higher officials or acting in concert on their own initiative—that is the question. More requests are being made to-day than ever before by Negroes in Pullman reservations. There are some who desire to escape the ignominy and embarrassment of riding on "Jim Crow" cars; there are others who desire to travel in comfort. Nine out of ten Negroes seeking Pullman accommodations are intelligent and loyal. As to cleanliness, if taken man for man, many white passengers would suffer by comparison. Women in Pullman do not know the interstate and international significance of the same significance which there is a general disdain for State laws regarding travel. Women not affecting colored men from one State to another are not enough to enact the Jim Crow law. Americans are forbidden to ride Pullman cars to lamentably ignorant men, many believing that a man is not necessarily ignorant when a Negro is in Pullman coach.

He stated that for the first ten consecutive years the Pullman station was succeeded in securing a train through a white friend. He travels on democracy in Africa.

Mrs. Talbert Tells of Bitter Experience. During the session of the National Association of Colored Women's Clubs, held at Tukegee Institute, Alabama, I listened to Mrs. Mary B. Talbert, in the President's annual address, recite the many inconveniences and insults heaped upon her while traveling through the South long war work for the United States Government. In many instances she was compelled to sit up all night in a "Jim Crow" car owing to the discrimination of the Pullman people to provide her with suitable accommodations. The fact that she was a woman of culture and locally serving her country at a most crucial period of its history mattered little. She was a colored woman, and, therefore, the "rare" privilege of sleeping in a Pullman car was denied her. Geta First Hand Information. The stories told by Mrs. Talbert; S. W. Green and Ben Davis are only a few of the many that have recently reached my ears; but not until I went South three weeks ago did I get a truth insight into Community and Race Effort us Welfare and Ed-ons to Hold Meeting with and Seventh of the West 135th Street Branch association, in cooperation with the advancement of Colored People, the tele for Negro Relief, the Young and the New York City Mission in attendance upon classes at the school, and all others interested in conference on Friday and Saturday.

It was then, for the first time in my life, that I felt the poisonous fangs of *Jih Crowair*. My experience lasted for a day. That was enough. In that short space of time I was an unwilling party to incidents which caused me to wonder if Americans really understood, the true meaning of the term "human justice." My trip from New York to Tuskegee Institute, Alabama, was uneventful. Although there were white passengers all about me they gave evidence of being civilized. My trip from Tuskegee Institute to the Blue Ridge Mountains of North Carolina, as also devoid of adventure. It was not until I had left Dr. R. R. Moton, who was speaking in the mountains to white people under the auspices of the Interracial Commission, that disagreeable conditions began to bob up intermittently. On Monday morning, July 19, I was sent along with other guests, all of whom were white, in an automobile by my hosts to Black Mountain station in order that I might catch the next train (Continued on Second Page) COLORED WOMEN TO INTERNATIONAL BODY *The colored women of America will be represented at the fifth quinquennial meeting of the international Council of Women to be held at Christiana, nowway, September 8 to 10, 1920, by M. Bary B. Talbert, former president of the National Association of Colored Women's Club, with Dr. Mary P. Waring of Chicago, Ill., as alternate in place of Mrs. Booker T. Washington, who is too ill, to make the trip. The following summary of woman's work in the world movement is given by Mrs. Mary Goodwins, 35 Hill street, Orange, N. J., and tells of the beginning of this work in which Sojourner Trust has the first colored woman to share, with Frances E. W. Harper following her event. Mrs. Goodwins writes in response to many inquiries from men and women as to the international Conference, as follows: The year of 1848 was the beginning of the woman movement. A great revolution went over the world, and did not leave Negro women unimproved. Among the pioneer women of the Negro women who attended the meeting were first Sojourner Truth and later Francis Harper. To celebrate the 440th anniversary of the first convention ever held by women the world, a call for centenary by Miss Susan B. Anthony and Elizabeth Cadden for the purpose of forming a national council of women. The delegates to the conference adopted constitutions for permanent constitution of national and international councils. The International Council of Women was in Sevilla in the city of Washington from March 25 to April 1. "The Dreamable adopted reflects the fact that if the woman's movement means anything it means that it is their historic mission, all together, to turn the world right side up since it was she who all alone turned it wrong side down. It reads as follows. "We, Women of all nations, surely believing that the best good of humanity will be advanced by greater unity of thought, sympathy and purpose, and that an organized movement of women will best conserve the highest good of the family, and the State, do her best, and ourselves together in a contested and at work career, in the fight against all forms of ignorance and mistreatment and to the application of the Golden Rule to society, custom and law. It is thirteen two years since the vote of this heterogeneous union of women began to respond with emplays all around the world through associations, formed for various objects, but consecrated to the service of humanity. In a unanimous voice the council invited the cooperation of all women irrespective of race, color or color. It is inevitable that Negro women must go forward and take up the duties of fellowship with the world of the educated and the mistreated, compelled by separate work, but by joining hands and making common cause, by uniting forces for strength and each working their own part of the whole." Now is the time to take the unheralded hequested to Negro women by Sojourner Truth and Francis E. W. Harper, pioneers in the good cause, in good faith. Now is the time to say to representative leaders, go on because where you go I shall shortly follow. Now is the time to answer the appeal for funds to de- the fifththway two翅 sirdl dhhr fray the expenses of the delegates to the fifth quinquennial meeting at Christiana, Norway, September 8 to 16, 1920. "It is a high privilege to be associated with women of every nation and discuss the question of deep moment which will place Negro women in an entirely different relationship for ever." —Mrs. Mary B. Taber of New York, former president of the National Association of Colored Women, will represent Negro women in this greatest of movements which unites armed forces for effective work when the movement for action comes. All our wishes, all our sympathy go with her for the triumphant success of the International Council of Women and all of its causes."

DEAN MOORE LEAVES HOWARD AFTER 20 YRS. Atlanta, Ga.—Dean L. B. Moore, after twenty years of service as founder and director of the Teachers' College at Howard University, Washington, D.C. has presented his resignation to President Durkee to take effect September 1, for the purpose of accepting a position as national field executive of t. Lincoln Reserve Life Insurance Corporation, to conduct extensive campaigns of education and thrift, and will establish his southern headquarters at Atlanta, Georgia. Dean Moore has been for two decades one of the outstanding figures in the educational world. He was educated at the University of Pennsylvania and afterward studied under the great psychologist Dr. S. Stanley Hall and later made a career of European educational methods. He organized the Teachers' College and made it a well known institution for the technical education of professional teachers. When the World War broke out he served the country acceptably with President Tatt's committee on "The Moral Aims of the War," in the promotion of patriotic education throughout the South, organizing great patriotic meetings and speaking frequently to large audiences of both races of several states. At the close of the war he was appointed regional director of education of the National Security League to conduct further campaigns of education and American literature. His title of "Education and Patriotism" was widely distributed in the camps in this country and France and in the summer schools of the South. In his new position Dean Moore proposes to conduct campaigns of education and thrift in and out of the colleges and will be able to do a very much larger service to aid the people in their economic struggles and to stimulate education than he could do in any one college however important. He is an acceptable lecturer before both races and holds large influence in educational and church circles, being the first and only Negro ever appointed a member of the Missionary Association of the Congregational Church, which counsels many of the best schools and colleges in the South and employs more than eight hundred teachers and missionaries. During the last year on leave or absence from the University he has done a noteworthy service in promoting inter-racial good will and cooperation in the South. Dr. Moore's friends will follow him while interest in his new and larger field where his well known powers of administration and leadership will have freer scope and more substantial financial backing.

Colored Men Breaking Away From Traditional Business Enterprises Capital and Courage Telling a Brief Story of Radical Effort Entailing Investment of Hard-Earned Capital in Untried Ventures Negroes are making new departures in business in Harlem. They are breaking away from traditional Negro enterprises and are acquiring the capital and courage to try newer fields. Until a few years ago Harlem Negroes desiring to go into business limited themselves to just a few enterprises. Barber shops, beauty shops and restaurants, with here and there small groceries, comprised about all the businesses in which they were willing to risk capital. Legions of barber shops, hair parlors and lunchrooms in Harlem indicate that these businesses are still popular enterprises; but there are also evidences of a general breaking away from them, of a tendency and a desire to do something different. Four Colored Girls Chosen By New York Public Library Are Placed in Library Training School Preliminary to Appointment as Substitutes-The Girls' Record Four colored girls have been accepted by the New York Public Library for training which will lead to their appointment as library assistants, first grade. They are Miss Catherine B. Allen of Brooklyn, Miss Ruth A. Mosceley of New York, Miss Cora P. Muldrow of New York, and Miss Fannie Tarkington of New York. Something Different. Something different was 'done in Harlem Negro business when Arthur Q. Hart opened a five-tier and twenty-five cent store at the corner of Seventh avenue and 141st street, and then another at 2250 Seventh avenue. He is the first Negro to bring the Woolworth idea to Harlem. Common business scenes and uncommonly hard work and clear foright have developed this idea so successfully that it became for the establishment of a chain of five and ten cent stores in Negro Communities in and about New York. The Harlem Bargain Store, at 225 Seventh avenue, has also caught the Woolworth, the Grand and the McCory idea, and is doing an increasing business. A Delicate man One would not think that it took an unusual amount of courage for a Negro to open a delicatessen store. Yet, nor want of information to the contrary, it seems that out of one hundred thousand and Harlem Negroes only two have had the fortitude to go into a really up-to-date table luxury business. Fulcher and Myre have established the Columbus Delicatessen at 143 W. 135th street where they are offering appetizing salads, pickled meats and other delicacies for the sold lunch and late supper. Lake Fulcher and Myre in the delicatessen business, the Anderson Furniture Company at 28 W. 130th street is the first, and so far, the only Negro company to deal in furniture. The Anderson Company is progressive in that it has credit clubs and offers discount for cash like any other live furniture business. The company looks forward to steady expansion. The Star Fish Market at 135th street and Seventh avenue, owned and operated by Negrees; the Harlem Rotisserie, Seventh avenue between 138th and 139th streets, a different kind of restaurant, where the specialty is broiled chicken; several large bakeries, notably the Pomona, the Universal Negro Baking Company, the Bishop Baking Company, and three herbardasheries, two of them being "Nick's" at Seventh avenue and 141st street and at 520 Lenox avenue, respectively; and one of them Norman's at 437 Lenox avenue; are distinctively Four Colored Girls By New York Are Placed in Library Preliminary to Appstitutes-The C Four colored girls have been a Library for training which will lead assistants, first grade. They are Mlyn, Miss Ruth A. Mosceley of New York, and Miss Fannie Tarki These young ladies have had two weeks' preliminary training in the 135th street branch of the New York Public Library, and will now be placed in the regular library training school. As needed, they are to be taken into the library service as substitutes, the first two probably receiving their appointment in October, and the other two in December. They will then be eligible to take the examination for appointment as regulars. Miss Allen is a graduate of Howard University, Washington, and received her high school training at the Girl's High in Brooklyn. She has had one year's experience in library work, having served for that length of time as assistant librarian at Tuskegee Institute. Ala. CAFOLAY MAKES YOU-1 new departures in Harlem Negro business. Brown-Skin Doll Perhaps the most unique Negro business in Harlem is being done by the Berry and Kona Manufacturing Company Inc. Here is a decent engaged in the production of clothing and in the manufacture of brown-skinned dolls—something practically unheard of, at least not attempted, before in Harlem. The company has its factory on the two upper floors in the loft building at 36-38 W. 135th street. The factory is equipped with thirty electric power sewing machines and gives employment to fifty colored, girls. It sells its products to jobsbars and department stores, and has established a store at 65 W. 135th street to retail its clothing and dusky dolls to Harlem people. So far as is known the Berry and Kona Company has launched the first Negro venture in large scale manufacture in Harlem. TUSKEGEE STUDENTS (Special to Two New York Agents) Tuskegee Institute, Ala.-Tuskegee Institute was well represented at the Reserve Officers Training Camp which was held at Camp Custer, Michigan. Twenty-two of the sixty-four colored students there were members of the R. O. T. C., organization at Tuskegee Institute. In a letter to Mason, one of the officers at Camp Custer, upon the work of the Tuskegee boys go follows: "I have never lost but the highest words of praise and commendation for those noble sons of the South and of our race who came in with the Tuskegee Spirit of 'making no matter what the handiwork, right well, indeed, have they in every course demonstrated their manliness, character- efficiency and the evidence of the sound and thorough training received by their officers." Major W. H. Walkout, commander of Cadets at Tuskegee Institute, visited Camp Custer last week and on the day of his arrival, a silver loving cap was presented to the Tuskegee boys for their fine record by the 1600 other students.

Reaching the station I aligned and proceeded to buy a ticket I was directed to the "colored" waiting room, where a long line of cool people had congregated. for more than thirty minutes, it being the custom in the South to sell to all white people first. Negroes must wait pa- tially, even the white people com- ing late are served. My companions in the automobile had purchased their tickets and were surrendering about long be- fore attention was paid to the colored folk Two men sold tickets at the "white" window and it was not until shortly before train time that business was begun at the "colored" window. "Quite frequently colored passengers find it too late to purchase their tickets at the station. Then they get them on the train paying a higher rate. First come, reserved, is an American custom violated at railroad stations in the South. Playing the Game at Asheville. Before leaving for Asheville one of the influential white men at Blue Ridge gave me a letter to J. H. Wood, who is in charge of the Pullman office at this well known resort. The communication asking that I be sold Pullman accommodations from Asheville to St. Louis, Mo. After Mr. Wood had read the communication, he wrote on it: "Mr. Wilson, take care of this, if you have space." The thought occurred to me when I read the lines scribbled by Mr. Wood that he certainly lacked the gift of perspensity, as his instructions were not very clear. However, Mr. Wilson fully understood Mr. Wood, as subsequent developments will show. Mr. Wilson read the instructions, appeared somewhat distracted and then looked up his list of reservations to St. Louis. After the observation he informed me that everything was taken from Asheville, but that he would be ahead and treasured a little for the Knoxville, Teen. I thanked him for his kindly interest and made my exit. Somebody Lied When the train reached Knoxville I inquired the ticket case if any registration had been made for Walton by way from Nashville, and the ticket promptly intercepted me that no registration quest had been received. I also told that I could not get any kind of berth-upper or lower. Although I have differed in my opinion the Southern white man on railwayers I have addressed him for his pelling canard. With what I have done to my experience with the person railroad officers at Nashville and Knoxville is that I am not brutal training. But my experience with the person ville in that town has been worth lazing. Half the car is used as a page coach to transport the steam and manually falls hear to truss of the car and that. The steam and page coach racks overhead which are for prestigious bags and hats and that. He has to have the same opinion of colored passengers as his white co-workers. The determination of the conductor to bag two whole seats in the front of the Tom Crow car, which accommodates four persons, for his office, much to the inconvenience of Negroes, was an incident that demanded a large share of my attention. In order to keep anyone from occupying the seats the following sign was displayed. "This seat for conductor." Between Asheville and Knoxville the conductor and colored scenes were principals in several scenes which I understand are special daily. Some Negroes, passing police territory, did not obey the war at陈列馆 and disregard the sign. Others would stand rather than argue. A woman occasioned unconscioned incitement by taking possession of one of the seats and retuming to seize. Then the conductor became provoked and at next order, using the other seat as a dekor or a distance. Conductor Inconveniences Negroes. The Court of Appeal in the County of Law has ordered an other trial founded on pre- judgment evidence. A witness has admitted arriving where he was in the court of the penal insti- tute. He was waived from the trial and the were waived from the trial. The trial was where the evidence was presented. Stokes Snag at Quidditc, Tenn THE NEW YORK AGE SATURDAY, AUG. 7, 1930 ned my cap to settle down for a night's feel. It was nearly 12 o'clock when the poster came through the car, yelling, "All out at Oakdale!" I never had heard of Oakdale, Tenn., before, but I shall never forget it. "Lonesome Hollow" or some similar name would be more mating phrase; this out-of-the-way place where we were forced to alight in the dead of the night; but as to the symology I care not. For some reason Oakdale is not the town of the Southern Railway, but the spot needs no such distinction in which to remember it. There were eleven of us to get out of the "Jim Crow" coach at Oakdale. I have a distinct recollection of three members of the party—an attractive young woman of light complexion who boarded the car two stations above; a gray-haired woman, nearly seventy years old, who was traveling to her home near Chicago in way of St. Louis, and a man of forty who was on his way to East St. Louis, Ill., to meet his wife, who had preceded him by three weeks. They had joined to make East St. Louis their home, preferring it to the South, and was familiar with the history of the St. Louis riots, too. The first picture that met my eyes was I lightened at Oakdale was a small, dimly-lighted station, the exterior decorated here and there by a track hand or railroad employee. As the comely colored girl entered the door of the colored waiting room I heard a tall, lanky track hand on her face was Covered with dirt. I greased angrily inquire in aeto toe: "What are you going in there for?" Then he seemed to realize his mistake and walked on. The girl evidently did not fear him and meandered into the waiting room. Later she spied a male impatient one and talked with him on the outside the several minutes, while white men looked on and engaged in whispered comment. Finally the couple strolled off and were soon swallowed up in the midnight darkness. Aged Woman Refused Pullman. While waiting for the train scheduled to be on our journey I had a talk with the elderly woman, who accompanied battenly of the unfriendly attitude at the Fullman people who even had trained to take her age into consideration, telling her they could not provide her with their cars but colored people living outside she had met with no information whatsoever, but the bad news could only entirely different when ready to go back home. She told me she had willings and gladly sent two women to help make the world a better place and expressed keen disappointment over the fact that the big part of the American Negro played in the war had not wanted the race a larger and more lasting place in the hearts and minds of Americans. Confronted with Southern Paradox. It was nearly 10 o'clock when our train polled in and once more we were conjoined with a Southern paradox. While there were many empty seats in the day, we provided for white people the Lim Car car was crowded to capacity. They refused to open the door us in, and when I accosted the train conductor he assumed a most domestic attitude and informed me that I would not board the train but would wait for the next that arrived. at Oghdaid A. M. My expeptula- tions in use these were in office. Those more hours at Oakdale! The thought was unbearable and I presently decided to get up with it into play. I went to the Pullman coach carrying passengers to St. Louis—the coach where rights I should have given comfortably ensconced. I rang the bell for the coach, but he, too, was asleep, as the meant nothing in his young life. I then did a Howard Drew to the last Pullman car, jumping on with bag in hand. The porter proved to be a sympathetic auditor. I told him the only way the Pullman conductor could get me off the car was to forciblyject me and I asked him to make me kiss my presence until the train was still under way. I took a look at the smiling room and ten minutes later the porter announced that he had talked with the Pullman conductor who had consented to let me have the drawing room into Louisville, where the car would be taken off. The conductor, I learned, was a broad-minded Southern white man who was anxious to do all he could for the convenience of colored passengers but wanted to observe the law. Half of the lower and upper berths were not taken' on this car; but the Pullman conductor was inclined to think it was against the law for a car to be white people. To be perfectly honest, I preferred the drawing room to a regular berth. Now Traveling De Luxe Before retiring I was again forced into an argument with the train conductor. When he came for my railroad ticket I upbraided him for refusing to let me board the "Jim Crow" car. I asserted that I had a ticket for "one continuous trip," and had I been compelled to man at Oakdale the Kailway company bogey, he been used for damages and lost his job. this conductor was the type of a white man, who, due to ignorance and narrow provincialism, keeps back the wheels of practice in the South. He has been brought up to judge everybody; and everything in terms of color. The milk of human kindness with which he was blest has long since turned to clabber. It mattered little to him if his drastic decision to keep the members of our party at Oakdale for several hours longer worked great hardship. Investing him with authority is like putting a bomb in the hands of a child. Before going South I had resolved to leave my temper in New York, but I had not been talking long with this train conductor before discovering that all my temper had accompanied me. Although the Pullman conductor had kindly consented to let me have the drawing room the train conductor registered a vigorous protest, declaring it was against the law in Tennessee for white and colored people to ride together. I told him that he had better learn the difference between an interstate passenger and an intratect passenger and emphatically announced my intentions of staying on the car—law or no law. I then let the train conductor know just what I thought of him and his kind, and my utterances became so vitriolic that the object of my wrath, after looking at me curiously, unceremoniously departed, while the porter stood by listening and enjoying it all. Thirty minutes later as I lay in my drawing room surrounded by every comfort, I thought of the strange prank played by colorful phdia and of the various roles in which the Negro suddenly nudly humself because of this national cunning 9 o'clock was a way for an engineer to be permitted to board a "cow" car, and at 1:50 I was traveling in grand style and occupying the closest reception on the Pullman. Found Vacant Berths on St. Louis Pullman. When I awoke in the morning the perion informed me our train was three hours late and that instead of reaching Louisville at 8 a.m. it would be around noon. Before arriving at Louisville I made some personal investigations, discovering that all the births in the St. Louis car were not occupied, as had been represented at Asheville and Knoxville. I was directed to make application for one of the unoccupied births as soon as the train got to Louisville, which I did. My name was taken and when I called again instructions were given me to come in later. My train had missed connections with the regular morning train running between Louisville and St. Louis, so I found a need to stay in Louisville until 10 o'clock that evening. At 8:30 when I returned for my Pullman reservation to St. Louis everybody in the other assumed a blank expression and answered me in the negative. Once again I turned loose the floodgates, or inactive, relative to the mistreatment of colored citizens while traveling. The "Jim Crow" car brings *Migro* passengers into Louisville from the South, but in traveling between Louisville and St. Louis you sit in the regular coach. So the colored and white passengers who are kept apart while riding into Louisville were then thrown gether. What a difference on the laws! Of course the disappearance of the "Jim Crow" coach had no effect in putting me in good humor. I caught taught for sitting in the same car with white people. My cherished ambition was to get a birth where I could take off my clothes and go to bed. A Good Word for Missouri. Missouri, the State of my pativity, is sometimes referred to as being in the South. Perhaps it is in a way geographically but not so in sentiment. It never has been cursed with "Him Crow" cars and I had no trouble securing sleeping accommodations out of St Louis. Im fact, there is much that can be said complimentary of the fourth largest State in the union. I pre-une you want to know what became of my colored woman who came on her way to Chicago? I have not seen her since Oakdale. Tennessee she obeyed the injunctions of the train conductor and waited until the next train arrived at 4 o'clock a.m. KIDNKY HUNTING Flatly, Swift, Silly, Long By Udling Herolin PLEASE HAVE BACK INFORMATION.

The girls and refuses encountered by the coloured woman who sent two sons to the world, war in the interest of democracy and justice are daily occurred in the South. They would happen to your mother, my mother, your wife, my wife, your sister, and my sister. No differentiation is made between the tidy or the untidy, the intelligent or important; the refined or unscout. What is more, there are some who don't want to know the difference. But after all, that such a distressing state of affairs exists to-day in the United States is due in a large measure to colored Americans themselves. I S. W. Green-of the Knights of Pythias, Ben Davis of the Odd Fellows, Mrs. Mary B. Talbert of the National Association of Women's Clubs, and the heads of other strong organizations made a concerted effort to wake up the Pullman car offices to realization that the Negro must be treated justly, there soon would be a betrayment of conditions. Spending a little less money preparing to die and a little more preparing to live would prove of incalculable benefit to the race. Concerted Action . Necessary. . The Constitution of the United States provides, that laws are to be made and enforced alike for all citizens. The best constitutional lawyers in the land should be employed to ascertain why the Constitution is being so flagrantly violated. No longer can the enemy of the Negro carry on propaganda calculated to hamilte him and then hide behind the old excuse "State Rights," for during the past six years. President Wilson and Congress have given the "State Rights" argument a solar plexus from which it will never recover. The Government, through the Interstate Commerce Commission, has the power to direct the operation of railroads and for all passenger and freight rates. And yet some would have two million citizens believe that the United States Government is not powerful enough to exact a square deal for colored Americans on railroad and Pullman cars! The question should be explicitly put up to the United States Supreme Court and Congress as to whether the Negro is to be treated as a full dledged citizen or half a one; whether public utilities, such as railroads, which are under governmental supervision, are to serve some citizens and exclude others. The Negro in particular and the world in general ought to know if the courts and the majority of people believe that in this republic in this land of the free and the home of the leave the right to sleep on a Pullman coach is regarded as golden privilege, a coveted dissection to be conferred on class only, or whether it is to be construed as a necessity incident to travel, coming within the reach of all possessing the inclination and the means. INTERNATIONAL CONV. IN SESSION IN N. Y "I never heard of so many colored people brought together and guided by one man better," thus spoke a standby, Monday evening, at 145th street and 21st avenue as thousands passed in the parade of the Universal Negro Improvement Association and African Communities League. For many months the Convention has been talked about, especially every Sunday night in Liberty Hall at 145th street, between 21st and 26th avenues. It has opened with delegates from all parts of the world representing 40 million dark people, the total colored population of the earth. The parade was unique and many expressed themselves, still it was the best yet in New York, surpassing that of the Friends of Irish Freedom hold some time ago. As the crowds marched by flags could be seen representing many parts of the United States and New York, St. Patricks, St. Kitts, British W. Indies, Barbadines, St. Thomas, Virgin Islands, Trinidad, Antigua, Bahama, Jamaica, Nigeria West, Africa; and British Guiana. The Black Cross Nurses A striking feature was the lady inlays wearing the black strap whose banner read: "We are ready to support our boys, as they marched behind the Philadelphia legion. Marcus Garvey, president-general was in an automobile near the front, and cheer greeted him as he passed." Long before 7:00 p.m. great crowds were in line at Madison Square Garden, largest Colosseum in New York, waiting for the doors to open for the huge mass meeting at 8:00 p.m. When finally the dogs were open a seething mass of humanity poured into it until nearly all available space in balconies and box seats was utilized. After the usual preliminaries of a formal opening in which there was rendered excellent music by the bands and famous singers, Marcus Garvey was introduced as speaker of the hour. He first read a telegram to the President of the Irish Republic, Liam de Valera, which said in part: "Twenty-three thousand Negro delegates assembled in Madi- The East India Hair Grower Hair Vim Goes Over the Top Wonderful and appealing remedy—Because Hair Vim Products Diminishes the roots and gives the hair life-gives and electricity.

Please accept opposition of the Negroes of the world for your cause. We believe Ireland should be free even as Africa shall be free for the Negroes of the world." Purpose of Meeting. Proceeding with his speech, Garvey said: "The purpose of this meeting for the month of August is to write a Bill of Rights for the Negro Race," as his 2500 supporters shouted and cheered. He made it plain that the outcome of the month's deliberations was to be a Magna Charter of Negro freedom, "to which each will pledge his last drop of life's blood to protect." He cried, "The time has come for 400,000 Negroes to claim Africa as their native habitat. If Europe exists for the Europeans, and Canada exists for the white Canadians, we say it and we mean it, and we pledge that we shall maintain the standard of black freedom and democracy there. We have been dying for 500 years for an alien race. The time has come for the Negro to die for himself. The hour has come when North, South, East, West and Central Africa shall be the home of the black peoples of the world." Not Fit for Africa. Dr. J. W. Eason, secretary general of the Association, was introduced by President Garvey and made plain the intentions of the Association. The flag of the organization is Red, Black and Green. In enumerating the brave deeds of valor done by Negroes, a member of the "Hell Fighters" (15th New York Regiment) called, "Tell them about the Old Salt" and well he did, "Not all of these Negroes are to go to Africa" and Dr. Eason, for some of them are not fit, and we wouldn't have them there." He continued, "We do not represent the Negroes of America, of Africa or of British West Indies, but we represent the Negroes of the World, 400 million strong." Several visitors were introduced, including Mayor Johnson of Montauka, West Africa; a Prince of West Africa; Dr. J. I. Lewis of Montreal, Canada; and Dr. Johnson of Baltimore, Md. The convention will continue at Liberty Hall, West, 138th street. BIG SYRACUSE HOTEL USES COLORED WAITERS Syracuse, N. Y. - For the first time in its history colored batteries have been employed to serve at the Oranidoga Hotel, the largest in Syracuse, and they have made good. Dirty men, under supervision of Headwinner Jack Hardcee of the Vates Hotel were used an elaborate bangle at the Oranidoga recently and gave general satisfaction. John Sherrell assisted Mr. Harder. The hotel management, it is said, was so pleased with the service under the coloured man that it is their intention to give them on all similar occasions. BERGEN COUNTY MEN FORM VOTERS' CLUB FORMERS Englewood, N.J. For a long time the colored voters of Bergen County have been busy trying to an organization for the benefit of their own and political lives. Their efforts were crowded with success when a meeting held in Old Fallow's Hall, First and High Street, which was largely attended by representative citizens of the colored race from Hackensack, Ridgewood and Englewood.

If the Republican managers are desirous of bringing out all the votes possible in behalf of the ticket, there is need for planning a vigorous and intelligent campaign among the Negro voters. Mass meetings are well enough in their way, but as a rule they only appeal to those active partisans, who are already enlisted in the fray. The present campaign should be carried to that large number of new voters in the great Northern cities, who have never before played an active part in politics. This class comprises a large number who formerly dwelt in the South, where they were not permitted to vote. There is also to be taken into consideration the women, who in many states will be entitled to exercise the suffrage. Special methods should be adopted to reach these groups of potential voters, and enlist their active support. Then there are those citizens of foreign birth, but who have recently be come naturalized during the war, who have yet to cast their first vote in a presidential campaign. How to reach and interest this group of voters should receive special attention. Political star gazers may talk about capturing the electoral vote of Florida for the Republican ticket, but there is need for the responsible leaders of the party to get down to the ground and get all the votes possible in the great cities of the North, where they can be counted as well as cast. Let a feasible and legitimate plan be mapped out to organize these Negro voters, wherever they are located. DESIGNATING A TICKET. The representatives of the Republicans of New York State, in the unanimousity convention held last week, named a strong ticket for the State office to be voted for in November. The candidates designated by this convention will have to be voted upon at the primaries to be held next month, in order to be placed upon the ballot as the regular party candidate. The ticket, which is headed by Judge Nathan J. Miller for Governor, is regarded as an exceptionally strong one, both in the personnel of the candidates and from the point of geographical selection. The platform dealt with five issues and took firm ground on the subject of equal and exact justice for all classes of our citizenship. The qualified voters of the Republican party will make no mistake in ratifying the designation of the convention at the primaries. --- USE THE PUBLIC LIBRARY. A somewhat captious philosopher once complained that of the making of books there is no end. But he overlooked the fact that this process is not only good for the paper makers and the printers, but it also affords occupation for the readers and especially for the librarians. The people of New York City are especially librarians in the way of public libraries. Conveniently located in most every part of the city, there is a branch of the Public Library ready to furnish the mental pubilium most in demand by its patrons. While a large number of readers turn to a library solely for fiction as a diversion, many others find it a convenient source for required school reading or for information on a given subject. The professional man can refer to it for authorities not available in his own collection and the business man can find information on technical subjects and avail himself of the experience of others in his line. The people of Harlem have a branch library most conveniently situated near the corner of Lenox avenue and 135th street, with a competent corps of workers to ascertain their needs in the way of books and to fill them. They should use the facilities afforded them through this institution to their fullest extent. Let the library help you both as a means of diversion and a means toward a higher education. 100 WOMEN WANTED One hundred women are wanted to interest themselves in the Katy Ferguson Home. This institution is designed for the help of friendless and delinquent girls. The necessity for such an institution in a great city like New York, to receive the girls, who are sent out by the courts, and help them to regain a firm footing in the world, cannot be gained. The need is for more women to assist in the maintenance of the work. The home has been christened in the memory of Katy Ferguson, who is known as the founder of modern Sunny schools on Manhattan Island. She was a godly woman of the race, who delighted to gather the children around her and teach them the stories of the Bible, and the loving mercies of their Creator. It is uniquely fitting that a home devoted to the redemption of erring youth shooflake take the name of this Christian worker. The needs of the home in a material way embrace all kinds of supplies, especially in the matters of clothing, bedding and groceries. The home is located at 102 West 130th street, and donations and supplies may be sent to that address. A CURIOUS COMPOSITION A correspondent in Georgia has sent Tikie Ace a clipping from an unknown Georgia newspaper, which is entitled "With Kindest Regards to Henry Lincoln Johnson." It is based upon Mr. Johnson's allegation, made before an investigating committee of the United States Senate, that Negroes were lynched in Georgia for voting the Republican ticket. Concerning this specific charge the writer, whose name is given as Chas. E. Baggett, after calling upon the Southern Senators and Congressmen to demand the specific instances, adds "And if he fail to produce them, prosecute him for perjury." But before and after arriving at this conclusion, Mr. Ragget indulges in the most curious exhibition of vilification of Africa and Africans, Negroes and Northern whites that can be conceived. The composition is the quercest compound of ignorance, as shown by the misspelling of the long words employed and sheer blackguardism, that we have seen for a long time. It is entirely worthy of the editor of the illiterate sheet formerly published under the name of the Caucasian, we think, at Crawfordville, S. C., until even a Democratic administration had to put the editor in jail. Much of the clipping in question will not bear reproduction because of the vil language used, but a sample of Mr. Raggett's prose may be gathered from the following: The black cloud overshadowed the South, and the darkened raid appalled the philosopher and saddened the philanthropist. Down the dimmed passages of unblazed future could be seen the doctrines of miscognition to develop manhood–intermixture of the races for muscular efficiency. The absolutistionist would rise to the cause of freedom's march and start John Brown on a murderous adventure to kill the kindly-hearted Southern who sold the Negro his freedom. Hate had decreed that the South should suffer the loss, the North and the niggers—the gain, and no freedom-buying plan should delay the game. Now, what hope is there for the regeneration of the white South when a blackguard of this stripe can find a newspaper to devote nearly four columns of its space to such raysings, and worse? The question is, how large a proportion of the white South is ready and willing to accept such ravings as legitimate argument and be influenced by them. If the proportion is of any considerable extent, it illustrates the whiteness of brains and intelligence in that section, before the overwhelming force of racial prejudice. The only hope for the South is that the more liberal and enlightened element, which Titt Aro has had occasion to quote on more than one not may prove to be in the ascendency, and such follows as Baggett may be relegated to the shameful obscurity, which they are so well fitted to adorn. NEW INDEPENDENCE DAY Commemoring upon the recent celebration of the Fourth of July, the congregation Baptist, a long established religious weekly founded by the Rev. W. J. White remarked that while a few of the better informed people paused to reflect what the day really meant, the vast majority didn't exactly know and didn't exactly care. It further asserted that the American can nation as a people never know the extreme anguish which was borne by the Negro during nearly two hundred and fifty years of relentless chattel slavery, and the American people does not know or feel today the bitter pangs which sweep over the souls of two million of its citizens whose freedom is more theoretical than real. It concludes. Whenever the nation under God soires to the height in civil justice so it can repeal all the unjust laws on the statute books, loose all the "not guilty" prisoners in the penitentiaries of the land, and adopt a program of exact and lasting justice to all classes of American citizens, it will mark the beginning of a new day, quite as important in independence day. Let's have the more Independence day, and let that day stand for the freedom of the Negro from the curse of intimidation, segregation, and forced silence in the face of the most excusee crimes against his manhood and his rights under the constitution of the United States. The need for a new dawn of justice an independence for the nation was never more clearly and forcefully depicted than in the article we have quoted above. Its earnestness and force are largely due to the fact that it emanates from the section where curse of racial injustice is most keenly felt. Until the coming of the new Independence Day called for, the celebration of the Fourth of July must continue to appear a hollow mockery in the light of the higher intelligence of God and all just men. The recent death of Bishop John W. Alstork of Montgomery, Ala., emphasizes the mortality that has thinned the episcopal bench of the Zion African Methodist Episcopal Church during the past few years. Others called from labor to reward during this period have included Bishops R. B. Bruce, A. J. Warner, James W. Hood, C. R. Harris and Alexander Walters, the last of whom was peculiarly associated with New York City, both as pre- THE NEW YORK AGE SATURDAY, AUG. 7, 1920 SLAVERY IN GEORGIA published recently in the Atlantic year of Our Lord One Thousand Negro slavery may still be for which the "Constitution" arises that it will be difficult for many parts of the South to go a colored man named Cleared in Pike County, George Department of Justice exhumed on near Hollinsville in the year of the missing man. Susanne Cornelius Alexander Bald head, and appealed to the Beecher Connell, a white planer, had beaten him because Connell, a brother of Beecham to his Pike County employ, got a job in a garage. Alexander was arrested in Dearshrift of Pike County. He remained until Philip Moore secured his release and took that he paid Robert Connell. A month for Alexander's aid no wages at all. It that in 1918 Alexander was owner of Concord, in order to pay member of that year was turn a debt of $175 which Bottom member of 1918 Huff turned to now assumed the continuing pay Alexander $20 a month of the debt. It was from Rober ran away in August of last case of an able-bodied man to pay off an indebted been liquidated in a couple couple of years the original had continued to increase. The matter is that in the supply man can still be held in bonded debt. It is aside from the poor not countenance pennage. Cornelius Alexander is not solit, one all over, the far South, not with these robber landlords at out. Of course, under enough to work out such formally. Opportunities have taken up the Andicted, charged with peonage discovery of the murderers oared. The Department of Juice so keep it busy, if it is willing. An account published recently in the Atlanta "Constitution" shows that in this year of Our Lord One Thousand Nineteen Hundred and Twenty, Negro slavery may still be found in the state of Georgia. The story which the "Constitution" relates makes such sensational disclosures that it will be difficult for those not familiar with conditions in many parts of the South to believe it. Some weeks ago a colored man named Cornelius Alexander mysteriously disappeared in Pike County, Georgia. Federal investigators of the Department of Justice exhumed a body in a badly decomposed condition near Holtinsville in the same county, which was identified as that of the missing man. A year ago this same Cornelius Alexander had gone to Atlanta with a badly bruised head, and appealed to the district attorney for protection against Beecher Connell, a white plantation owner, who, according to Alexander, had beaten him because he refused to obey an order of Willard Connell, a brother of Beecher. Alexander was advised not to return to his Pike County employers, and he went to Douglasville, where he got a job in a garage. Last February Alexander was arrested in Douglasville by Willard Connell and the sheriff of Pike County. He was placed in the Zebulon jail, where he remained until Philip Moore, a tenant on the Connell plantation, secured his release and took him to work for him. Moore stated that he paid Robert Connell, father of the Connell brothers, $22.50 a month for Alexander's services, while the colored man received no wages at all. It is brought out that in 1918 Alexander was working for Matt Bottom, a white farmer of Concord, in order to pay an indebtedness of $40, and in November of that year was turned over to Frank Huff, who assumed a debt of $175 which Bottom claimed Alexander owed him. In December of 1918 Huff turned Alexander over to Robert Connell, who now assumed the continually accumulating debt and agreed to pay Alexander $20 a month, provided it was applied in payment of the debt. It was from Robert Connell's plantation that Alexander ran away in August of last year. Here we have the case of an able-bodied man working a couple of years at forced labor to pay off an indebtedness of $40, a sum which ought to have been liquidated in a couple of months. But even at the end of a couple of years the original debt was not only not liquidated, but had continued to increase. But the shocking thing about the whole matter is that in the supposedly enlightened state of Georgia a man can still be held in bondage and confined in jail on a charge of debt. It is aside from the point to say that the laws of Georgia do not countenance peonage. The case of Cornelius Alexander is not solitary: the same sort of thing is being done all over, the far South. Ignorant Negroes contract a small debt with these robber landlords, and are held through fear to work it out. Of course, under the conditions, no Negro could live long enough to work out such a debt, no matter how small it was originally. The Federal authorities have taken up the Alexander case, the Connells have been indicted, charged with peonage, the investigation may lead to the discovery of the murderers of the man who so mysteriously disappeared. The Department of Justice can find lots of work of this kind to keep it busy, if it is willing to tackle the job. GORILLAS. the Hearst papers feature a or some kindred science. A on an excavating expedition such depository and dig the diplodocus on some other from its habitus and its liking Journal" and the rest of the editorials are interesting. Quite frequently the Hearst papers feature an editorial based on biology or zoology or some kindred science. About once a week the Hearst writers go on an excavating expedition in the Encyclopedia Britannica or some such depository and dig out the remains of the dinosaurs or the diplodocus or some other prehistoric animal and draw a lesson from its habits and its life for the benefit of readers of the "Evening Journal" and the rest of the Hearst enterprises. Sometimes these editorials are interesting, often they are far-fetched and absurd. Last week one of the zoological editors on the "Evening Journal" produced the most aburd of these prehistoric lessons for the masses we have yet seen. He wrote an article to show why Jack Johnson could beat Jack Dempsey. We reproduce parts of the article not only to expose its absurdity but to throw it on a screen, as it were, for the colored people who buy and read the Hearst papers. The following paragraphs are from the editorial: Jack Johnson, taken off the train prematurely, to keep him away from a heretofore hopping crowd, sawoned in a bearded manner as he engaged a cigar and said, "Nothing to me." He goes to start training and clean up this Dempsey fellow. Wilkes disease has already eaten up the living of his huge body, prey more than probable that Johnson will clean up the Dempsey fellow. Being by several thousand years close to the gavill, than Dempsey, he is increasingly a better light. We have the word of an able secretor; for it, and it is so insult to look Johnson simply a statement of tact, to say that the difference between a man and a boy is minutely less than the difference between a boy and a girl, cultized himself being fully developed initially. In fact, according to Hussey, the difference between a man and a boy is a savage of both types, and a child developed human being is greater than the difference between Jack Johnson and a blade of grass. The first thing we wish to note is that the above is directly opposite to what the Hearest staff was writing on the cue of Jack Johnson's battle with Jim Jeuries. At that time the Hearest penmen were writing to prove that Johnson could not whip the white man for the very reason that he was too close to the gorilla. They said that the Negro had nothing behind him but the jungle, while the white man had a thousand years of world conquering history, Agincourt and Runnymede and Yorktown; that when they got in the ring and the white man looked the Negro in the eye, the latter would quail, in fact, that he would be beaten before he was struck a blow. We all, of course, remember how much effect that psychological stuff attributed to Jeuries had on the fight. We should like to ask this writer on the "Evening Journal," why is Jack Johnson because he held the heavyweight championship for a few years any closer to the gorilla than was John L. Sullivan or Bob Fitzsimmons or Jess Willard? Does he mean that all prize fighters, white and black, are closer to the gorilla than the more peaceably disposed of the human family? By that line of reasoning Jess Willard is closer to the gorilla than Jack Johnson, and Jack Dempsey is closer still, for he beat the man that beat Jack Johnson. But that is not what this "Evening Journal" editor is striving to convey. He is trying to convey that Jack Johnson is closer to the gorilla than Dempsey not merely because he is a better fighter, but because he is a Negro. He quotes "an able scientist" as saying in effect that the difference between a Negro and a gorilla is less than the difference between a Negro and a white man. No real scientist could be found who would own up to making such an absurd statement. If we were looking for the man closest to the gorilla, not only in looks but in action; we would not pick out Jack Johnson with his smiling face and perfect body; we would go down among the hairy, stooping, scowling white men who are found so plentifully in South Carolina, Georgia, Mississippi and Texas, men who can take their women folks and babies along to watch them torture and begin a human being alive at the stake. INVESTIGATE The business awakening of the cohesed people goes back some years; that is individual or partnership efforts to initiate and carry on business enterprises, but it is only quite recently that the race has become interceded in corporate business; that in business in which those who put up the money are not partners, but share holders, and have no direct say in its management. But the American Negro has at last gone in for cooperate business. He is in vantage his money in stock companies owned and operated by colored men. This is as it should be, for in this age all big business is cooperate business. But the colored newspapers all over the country should impress upon the people that they should investigate as well as invest; and the investigation should be important to the investment. It should satisfy themselves as nearly possible that the persons who offer them a slip of paper for their $5; $10; $25 or $100, are valuable, honest and know something about the business they propose to undertake. It is very essential that at this particular time our people be saved as much as possible from failures and sickness, because if at the beginning they have their confidence in these larger vultures shaken it will put big business in the race back for many years. The Negro press can do a good share toward warding off such a disaster by each paper cautioning its readers against stock investments, regarding which they definite cannot afford. New orders can also investigate the reliability of those who wish to advertise stock in their columns; and they should absolutely refuse to carry any such advertisement unless they are satisfied that the concern offering the stock is a bona fide business undertaking, with reliable and capable men behind it. The colored voters of Denver, Colo., are seeking representation in the legislature through the candidacy of L. H. Lightner for assemblyman. The Denver Star warns its readers of an attempt by the white politicians to put up two Negroes against Lightner, so as to defeat Negro representation altogether. It urges in this fashion. In a nutshell, can, should or will you Negroes who have independent votes, stand for any set of white politicians to pick your choice and make your wallow him? If you do, then you by your action can split our vote, if not, then keep your mouth closed, do your wallow him, then the time comes for the race selection your race has made. Negroes keep one open for the race, be wise and do your stuff, for the bacon and bring it home. Do not split the Negro vote. Do not sacrifice the Negroes, if you have to sacrifice After this hold exposure of the political game, it should be hard to fool the voters who are in favor of a race representative. --- In the election of Miss Edwina B Kruez as the principal emeritus of Howard High School, the Wilmington, Del. Advisor notes a deserved recognition of her past labors as principal of this institution. It says: This distinction is conferred on a worthy public servant is a recognition of the service of one of the most constructive women of the race, who has done more for the education of the Negro in Delaware than anyone else, for Miss Kruez principally established Negro schools in Delaware. The reward of the educator are merely in the upbuilding of the south of the country. Every recognition of this important phase of the work is well merited. A local item in the Huntington, W. Va., American informs the public that Big Eagle, the Medicine Man is building an apartment on the corner of 17th street and Atlantic avenue. There will be state rooms on the first floor. He expects his sister soon to spend her vacation with him. We are not advised as to the racial identity of Big Eagle, but not so long ago that name would have been suggestive of warpaint and tomahawks. The record made by the late James D. Carr, as an assistant in the office on the Corporation Counsel of New York City, was a distinct contribution to the credit of the race in this town. Charged with a most delicate task in imbibing the rights of unmarried mothers in the courts, he became an authority in this particular branch of legal practice, and at the same time maintained a reputation for personal proficiency. His career was a standing refutation of the Republican election, voiced by W. M. K. Olcott, when as district attorney, he was asked to appoint Mr. Carr as one of his assistants, nearly twenty-five years ago, and he replied that the time had not yet arrived to appoint a colored man to that position. When Olcott failed of recollection, Tammany Hall promptly appointed Carr on the district attorney's staff, from which he was transferred to the office of the Corporation Counsel. And as yet, the Republican leaders in New York City have not fully learned the lesson taught them in the defeat visited upon Olcott and Quigz, as the result of their treatment of Carr. The Hephzibah Herald is a quasi religious sheet published at San Antonio, Texas, twice a month, or as the editor cautiously adds, "As often as the Lord will permit." A peculiar attribute is claimed for this publication, in the following announcement: "These papers are prayer over before they are sent out. Any one that's sick will be relieved by applying the paper." This may be taken as another illustration of the power of the press. Editor G. W. Bouldin of the San Antonio Independent, before leaving to serve a sentence in the Federal prison at Leavenworth Kansas, published a farewell in his paper, claiming that he was an innocent victim of circumstances. The charge upon which he was convicted grew out of the publication of an article concerning the Houston riot in November. her, 1979, triumph by a citizen of Amethi, which the editor claims was published without his knowledge or consent. However, he proposes to take his medicine like a man. Journalism in Texas is no child's play. An appeal has been issued by the Foreign Born Citizens Political Alliance, urging all Negroes of foreign birth to become citizens and help the native born, Negroes fight the battle for the race's existence. This movement is in line with the suggestion made by Tux Acr some time ago, in which those of foreign birth were urged to avail themselves of the benefits and advantages of citizenship. As this organization offers to furnish to its members, free of charge, instruction and assistance for Naturalization, it should prove a useful factor in the making of new Americans. Its office is at 2297 Seventh avenue, New York City. Occasional reference to a locality termed "Cincy" occurs in the social items in the Cincinnati Journal. This would lead the anxious reader to deduct that "Cincy" is employed as an affectionate diminutive for the Ohio Metropolis. Now, let "Frisco" perk up and cease feeling lonely. The Rockhill, S. C. Messenger is moved to remark, with a tinge of acidity, that: A GREAT many people would be given credit for a good deal of intelligence if they would but keep their mouths shut. We do not know how great was the suffering from garrulous calls that provoked this sweeping pronouncement, but there is undoubtedly a germ of truth in it. No one can so clearly demonstrate his ignorance as when talking at length on a subject of which his information is limited. And yet the man who remains persistently silent may in the end be suspected of knowing nothing to talk about. A happy medium of moderate indulgence in expression is the play for safety. The Michigan State Federation of Colored Women's Clubs is the proud possessor of a highly appreciated State yell, which is reproduced from the Detroit Leader, as follows: RAH! RAH! RAH! We are who? Women of the Lake State All true blue What's Our Motto? Help others to live. How do we do it? We give, give, give. Michigan, Michigan RAH! RAH! RAH! Truly, a good slogan for any set of women to live up to. "The real heroes of the race", according to the Philadelphia Christian Recorder, are those who still live in the South as ministers, teachers, lawyers, physicians, farmers, business men and others. Is says: A great many of the leaders of the South in education, in religion, in politics have felt the call for the better conditions in the North, but have remained in the South because the great masses of colored people are there. They have felt that it is their duty to educate these people, to preach to them, to organize to teach them conserve their wealth, to teach them in buildings of business, to guide them in buildings of homes and of a real society. There are dreds and thousands of intelligent colored people in the South who would leave the South to marrow if it were merely for their own personal advancement. They feel the injustice of Jim Crowism and segregation and discrimination and the thousand and one humiliations that come every day to the intelligent people there. They feel it quite right that they should leave for the North. But there have not left because, they feel that if they should leave, millions of unutured people who are unable to move at present from their unpleasant situation it would grow a great deal worse than it is. The conclusion that a great debt of gratitude is due this class of race leads it cannot be disputed. Senator Harding's Position Henry A.

Brown, president and general manager of the Quality Amusement Corporation, announces that at the beginning of the season all Quality theatres will be forced to slightly raise the price of admission. This step has been made absolutely necessary owing to the recent advance in passenger and freight rates, the increased cost of seency, costumes and other theatrical accessories, to say nothing of salaries. Mr. Brown points out that for years patrons of the Lafayette Theatre have been seeing musical shows at a figure considerably less than charged by any other large colored house in the country. All along such road shows, as the Smarter Set and Billy King Company have complained of playing to lower prices in New York than elsewhere. With the opening of the new season all Quality theatres will charge seventy-five cents plus the usual eight cents war tax for the best orchestra seats, although prices will remain about the same in other sections except first rows in the balcony and boxes. Unless this policy is put into immediate effect the corporation, in its endeavors to encourage the Negro in dramatics and provide up-to-date houses for colored theatre-goers will face a big loss at the very start. Three musical and two dramatic productions will mark the initial efforts of the Quality Amusement Corporation to give the public high class entertainment. The first musical show will open the latter part of August at the Avenue Theatre, Chicago, and will be headed by Shelton Brooks, who has written some very catchy musical numbers for his vehicle. I. Reamond Johnson will interpolate several songs in the new shows opening in the East. It would not be surprising if "The Red Moon," "Bambuna Land" "Rufus Rastus" and other musical successes of a decade ago were staged by the Quality Amusement Corporation, it being the deare of E. C. Brown to revive all the old productions from "Some of Ham" to "My Friend from Kentucky." Preparations are under way to remove the executive offices from New York to Philadelphia about September 1. although the Elite Amusement Corporation will continue to keep its main offices in the metropolis. L. A. W. EIGHT ACTS AT THE LAFAYETTE THIS WEEK There is both quality and quantity to the vaudouville bill being served to Lafayette Theatre patrons this week. Eight acts to do their urmsot to please, and to make it a strictly colored affair two colored comedy pictures are exhibited. Much interest is centered in the new act of Connor and Smallwood, which is the feature attraction and produced by J. Rosamond Johnson. No money has been spared to make the act a classy one, the scenery and costumes having been secured with an eye on the big numbers written on the art. Edgar Connor always has been an energetic worker and a disciple of meamert and Miss Mildred Smallwood booms up as one of the race's leading exponents of the terpsichorean art. With the adduction of one fast number the act is ready for the two-a-day. Martin and Walker have a tabloid in which ten people sing and make merry. Miss "Babe" Brown is one of the young women who helps put the skirt over. Ministrel Morris, with his juggling specialty and entertaining line of talk wins applause as usual; Miss Maude Jones and H. L. Pryor give one to the bill by appearing in a dramatic play containing several tense situations. Vaundy sketches of this kind ought to be encouraged, as it widens the scope of the colored performer's opportunities in vaudeville. The Dog and Pony Circus is an act pleasing to both children and growups; Jim Bursis is doing a single with new jokes and songs. Adams and Robinson have a Flaming and character impersonations for Johnson and Walker entertain in singing and character impersonations and Pursuit and Anderson dance and make it lively fashion. W. (W. J.) Trotter is in Chicago planning for the publication of a magazine to be distributed in the interests of the theatre. He expects to issue the first number about August 30. "ALABAMA BOUND'NEXT WEEK AT LAFAYETTE Irvin C. Miller and his "Broadway Rastus Company will present for the first time on any stage, "Alabama Bound," his latest dance and song revue, which he describes as a non-stop laugh express, in two sections and twelve coaches—or two acts and twelve scenes. "Alambra Bound" has been built for laughing purposes only, it contain, two skirts funnel than the grave yard scene in Broadway Rastus. Quite a sum has been spent in scenery and costumes. Emmott Anthony (the gang) will ride with Irvin C. Miller as conductor on the blues-chasing, glomous-spelling, express, "Abbama Bound" Ida Brown, Anita Wylkins, Ernest Whitman, the Leggette sisters, Fortune Fontaine, Ferdinand Crew, others will form the joyous crew—not to mention the prize winning chorus of men and beauty. Special music by Berni Burbour, Macceo Pinkard and Perry Bradford will be a feature. Dance creations from jazz to classic will make this show a dance resue par excellence. THE LINCOLN THEATRE Frank Montgomery, Florence Maclane, and Maxie Montgomery, in "Some Sympation," are headliners at the Lincoln Theatre all this week. During the first half of the week Louise and Mitchell did some novel gymnastic entertaining, the Cardine Duo presented clever singing and dancing, and the Powers, Marsh and Delmere Trion offered real good "harmonizing." A real reel characteristic Mack Sennet comedy completed the bill. The feature film now showing is a Paramount-Artcraft production called "Below the Surface" with Hobart Bosworth.

THE NEW YORK AGE, SATURDAY, AUG. 7. 1900 By JOHN BRUNSON. It would not be amiss at this time of international interest in athletics to present for the benefit of those who have not reretofore been students and followers of the athletic game, a short treatise on the history and origin of the Olympic idea. Recourse to several authorities on ancient history has given us the knowledge that the Greeks took a broad view of the meaning of education and made it include all that the boy received from his elders, before he became of age, in the training of his body, mind, and morals. When the little boy had grown into a lad, he was introduced to three main branches of discipline. These branches were gymnastics, music, reading and writing. Instruction in gymnastics was given in the wrestling grounds, of which there were several in Athens. An instructor gave systematic lessons in wrestling, running, the broad jump, throwing the discus and casting the spear. All these were taught so universally that it was easy to improvise track meets, on almost any occasion. Greek literature contains many references to these games, as when Xenophon speaks of the gods as umpires of the uneven struggle between the Greeks, and Persians—and not merely are those games meant in which professional athletes figured, but also the simple contests of ordinary citizens trained in their youth to understand and enjoy them. We judge, then, that the Greeks laid more stress upon the physical and moral development of the citizen than the acquisition of expert intellectual knowledge. The Greatest Festival... Of the many athletic festivals celebrated by the Greeks, the greatest was the Olympic, the name being derived from Mt. Olympus or Olympia in Greece. The Encyclopaedia Britannica informs us that "these games, the greatest of the Pan-Hellenic festivals of the ancient Greeks, were celebrated at intervals of four years in honor of the good Zeus, in a sacred enclosure called the Altis, on the banks of the Alpheus, in the plain of Olympia in Elis. The victors were crowned with gallards of wild olive, and on their return hoge, they were received with extraordinary distinction." The state of the first Olympiad is given in classical chronology as 776 B.C. These games were continued in some form until the Grecian Empire became but a myth, when nothing remained of her stately grandeur but the ruins of the temples and columns which are admired and wondered at by modern civilization. It is to Baron Pierre de Conubertain a distinguished citizen of France, that the world owes the new series of Olympiads. This nobleman conceived the idea of a revival of the games and the year 1868 saw the first Olympic Games of modern times in Athens. The historic Greek city was the inevitable choice of the International Olympic Committee, composed of delegates who had been invited to oversee the idea by Baron de Conubertin. At Athens then, the new cycle was begun, and every country made engagements to continue these games every four years, in one great city after another of the various competing nations. They were held subsequently in Paris in 1900, America promoted them in 1904 at St. Louis, during the Pan-American Exposition, London was the choice for the 1908 game, Stockholm, Sweden, for 1912, the city of Germany, had a wonderful stadium for the 1910 contests, but the world struggle, perpetrated by the Teutons themselves, precluded any idea of Olympiads that year. And now that the nations have once more laid aside their armaments and have taken up again the struggle for existence, the most appropriate medium for reuniting ties that had been severed was naturally, the Olympic games, which are even now in progress in Amsterdam, Belgium, the seventh celebration of the revived Greek institution.

Editor Post Office I want to thank you for the publication reply, the question regarding the post office, and also want to commend you for urging the people in the post office to save their money. You are doing something which our ministers and editors are not doing. I read nearly all of our leading race papers and magazines, and very seldom do I come across an article or editorial advising people to save their money or to buy homes and leave the congested cities where they pay enough in rent in two years to make a good start in buying a home. Not only are our editors guilty in this respect but our ministers are also negligent in this matter. I attend church often and I never hear the minister tell our people to stop paying high rents, and try to buy a home. Whatever may be said against the Heart publications, they very frequently have able and inspiring editorials by me. My office is buying homes, using your spare time to good advantage, and other things inspiring. Why cannot our writers do likewise?

ON THE CUBER PATH ATHLETIC JOTS. The late summer and fall meets will be ushered in with the holding of the Eccentric Firemen's annual games, which will be contested at Celtic Park, L. I. next Sunday, July 8th. With all this year's National champions and runners-up over in Belgium preparing to uphold Uncle Sam's prowess in the Olympic games, the middle class and movie athletes will hold away in the meets bereavours for a month or more. All the clubs in the district have entered their full strength in the Firemen's games and the struggle to annex the beautiful point trophy should be a keen one. The most attractive event on the program is the one-mile relay. St. Christopher, Salem-Crescent and the Alpha Physical Culture Club are all confident of capturing this event. Each club also has a squad of promising invoices for the 100-yd. and 880-yd invoices ever. Edward O. Gourdin, Harvard's colored all-around star, is paying tribute a visit during his vacation. He was an enthusiastic spectator at the Arrow Club's tennis tournament last Friday. Dudley Hart of St. Christopher and Hardy Thompson, formerly of the same club, now unattached, are both favorites for the 100-yd, noire price at the funerals' games on Sunday. A wireless from the Princess Matilda, the transport carrying the Olympic team to Belgium, reported Sol Butler seawater last week. Sol entered the same way previous to capturing the broad jump at the Interallied meet with a jump of 24 feet 9½ inches. George Creed, the old Salem distance star, who has resided in Keyport, N.J., since returning from France with the Fighting Fifteenth, was presented with another bouncing baby boy recently, "I am," as he is familarly known by his comrades, is prepared to run a relay against any clubmate who can boast three thriving sons. One of the most tireless track workers among the colored clubs is little William Ash of the Salem Crescent, A. C. This boy's efforts have not resulted in any notable triumphs as yet, but with the patience and stick-to-trueness that he possesses, and under the efficient tutelage of trainer "Bunk" Jones, success is bound to come his way. The officials in charge of the Firemen's games should see to it that the Celtic Park track is in better condition than it was two weeks ago if their games are to be a success. Many athletes will not risk serious injury by running on the track if it is in no better shape than it was for the Engineers' games.

(BY JOHN.) --- POSTOFFICE NOTES POSTOFFICE NOTES We have a letter for one of our writers who has recently transferred from a downtown office to a station over near the river. The writer, seem to be mistified because of the conditions in his new place of work, by no means a new man in the service, therefore we find ourselves paying quite some attention to his disclosures. "Upon my enquiries to this station," he writes, "I was sent to the letter floor to replace the man who went to my former workplace in my stead. It was somewhat embarrassing for me, a man of some few years' experience to have to begin learning this station's primary cases. It was like beginning all over again. As a tutor I had a temp, very congenial, even amiable, who explained all of my questions without the least sign of fatigue. Yet to me his answers were distasteful. He was a temporary clerk and I a regular. I had not been at this station more than two nights before I was informed by the time he that I had been transferred permanently to the newspaper floor. I had been told that this would happen. It is commonly said about this station that no Negroes can work here unless they are on the paper floor. This old runner flashed to my mind, a mind that was prejudiced from the outset because I had received a transfer without asking for it. "I lost no time in gelling the timekeeper that I would not work on the newspaper floor. I made out a slip requesting to be assigned to any other department in the building. I then proceeded to the paper floor with the intention of handing in the ship and going home. To my surprise, when I reached that place, the man in charge asked for my slip before I had time to take it out of my pocket. He had been informed by the timekeeper of my declaration to go home and wait to be sent to another department. This official was thus showing me that he was no more eager to have me work for him than I was to work—yet there was nothing resentful in his manner. All of this took me clearly off my base—his request tomy slip, his lack of resentment, etc. I somehow stammered that I would finish out the night in his department and would hand my ship to the timekeeper on my way out. The man in charge then directed me to the jug. More than one agreeable surprise met me when I went where I was directed. First, the host of the jug was a big, robust, pleasant faced colored man; second, the man alongside of whom I was told to work, introduced himself and advised me to ask him anything I didn't know about the work. I could feel my illfeeling toward the place melting away. What capped the climax was the harmony existing between the clerks and the officers in charge of them. Everybody working with me, white and colored alike, showed commendable respect for the pleasant faced Negro in charge of us. I had not worked more than a few hours before. I realized that this respect was prompted by the thorough knowledge this Negro has of his work. Anything that anybody did not know about his department could be learned seemingly by applying to him. "I finished up my night and licked it so well that I went back the next night and the next and the next. Three weeks he elapsed an hour. The three days he found a station under on pleasantASK friend, but a better job which he helped me to obtain. I have found that his name is Mr James E Gardner. I have met a number of my other friends in this same station, in this same newspaper division, some of whom are college breed, and I have found none yet who have complained of the atmospheric conditions. "What has become of my ship? I tore it up long ago. I'm all fairness to this ideal station. I will stay here. I will be at Wool streets, New York. I should like to tell you the name of the houses, but no one ever starts anything around here and I have not been able to find out who is boss in the three weeks I've been here." What Is the Matter? When a boy comes from the country to such a city as New York and falls victim to temptation in order to array himself with some of the city's finerries or view the bright lights, there is some little excuse for him for he must be careful not to be drawn to the circus for the first time. Finding himself shy of the price of admission, he cautiously attempts an entrance under the bottom of the tent at the farthest distance from the main door. If he is caught the customary punishment is a waiting by the village constable but he is not looked upon as a criminal. In the same way are we prone to look at country boys who have content into the service, received positions of trust and temporarily forgotten to pursue alone that do not belong to them. For as John Greenleaf Whittier says, "Men are only boys grown tall. And hearts don't change much after all." But when we learn of cases where boys have been born and raised in this wonderful city, have been constant witnesses of its attractions, etc. get general information about letters sent with letters or letters entrusted to them, we find our hearts hardened against shopping them sympathy.

Why in thunder do these wise (?) city chaps continue to believe that they are too clever for the secret service men whose sole business is to work alongside of them, become friendly if necessary only to pomp upon them when they are seen at their fool practices? Have they no regard for the respect of their fellow workers with whom they durst not seek association after a conviction? Don't they care about the embarrassment their families must meet following their fall from grace? Or are they all "framed"? The Act has heretofore remained quiet on such discrepancies, feeling that it did no good to comment on the failures of the weak. Such happenings are becoming so common, however, that we intend giving them due pubilition in an attempt to curb the practice. If fear of having the world know of our wrongdoing will keep our folks on the straight and narrow pathway. The Act is willing to hold the hammer over your heads. Foreign Station. The clerks of this station are in sympathy with the family of a brother whose misfortune it was to be detained by the government authorities. Men employed in this business or any branch of the Civil Service are of proven intelligence and when one becomes weak, deep sympathy is felt—not for the individual, but for those of his family who must suffer from his weakness. It is customary here when a clerk is late for duty to administer the tardy service with roaring "aazz" whistle, everybody joins in. This was new to "Ted," who came one hour late one morning and twenty minutes late the following day. The loud razing almost scared him to death. Tennis enthusiasm is here and is increasing by the minute. We boast some players of promise in Charles Johnson, Dudley Hart, George Brewer, Charlie Crippen, Phil Robinson and Milton Small. Other stations may expect a challenge in the near future. Miss Edna Jones reported on the day tour last Monday. Doos she like Mr. Gordon Brown has been assigned to the newspaper floor. This station need never fear that its colors will trail in "whist." Chief among its stars is Mr. Mayo, an old timer, who knows everything old and new about the game. Mr. Mayo and his silent partner spend their lunch hours practicing on would-be conquerors. "For the first time in fifteen years" Mr. Stewart Bell, and his partner Dorsey were put under the tails, a game of whist last week. Their opponents were Messrs. Dyer and Hert. The sight of many of the boys here making tea and coffee at lunch time is strong evidence that married life is doing them some good. "Confirmed Bachelors" of City Hall station please note. This station will be represented by Syd Jackson and Dudley Hart at the Ecstatic Firemen's Games on Sunday next at Celtic Park, Lond Island. Russell Bailey also will be a starter in one of the many races on the program.

Cannon Ball Dick Redding and Cyclone Joe Williams are unquestionably the two king pins among colored pitchers this side of Chicago. Each leads a strong team, rated semi-professional, instead of out and out professional, simply because of the color of their skins. Each has a following among baseball fans sufficient to make either command big salaries, second only to Babe Ruth's, if organized big league ball clubs were to lift the ban on colored players. These two mighty towers of pitching strength were at one time on the same team—the Lincoln Giants—when that team was at its best. Crowds used to pack Olympic Field, 136th street and in advance, each Sunday to see these skillful ball tossers mow down on outgoing batsmen. There, sprang up keen rivalry between these two pitchers due to their respective followers' debates on their competitive merits. The concensus of opinion was that Dick Redding, the cannon ball artist, had more speed and more "stuff" on the ball, the headwork than Joe Williams, commonly called "Cyclone Bacharachs Play In Chicago on Sunday To Play Rube Foster's American Giants on American League Ball Ground.

Following their last game in the West, Bacharachs will race back home to prepare for important games against the American Giants who will follow them East for a series of return games. Ebbett's Field has been engaged for the last two Sundays in this month and these popular teams are expected to crowd the stands to their capacity. Norfolk, Va.—In one of the hardest played and most hotly contested games ever staged in this city between colored teams the Fayetteville club emerged winners over the Norfolk All Stars Tuesday, July 27, by the score of 2 to 1. The winning run was showed over by the score of 2 to 1. The winning run was showed over by the visitors in the thirteenth inning. McIntyre, the youthful moundsman of the Fayetteville team, was master of the game from beginning to end. He twirled one of the finest games ever seen on this city. He used blinding speed at times, mixed with a fine assortment of curves and change of pace and kept the All Stars at his mercy at all times. He was backed up by near spectacular fielding the entire infield working like big leaguers. The victory gives the Fayetteville team rightful claim to the championship of the South. League Park, where the game was played, was crowded to its capacity with colored fans. This is Fayetteville's first game, winning 29, losing 2. She lost one out of four with Wilmington, on July 6, and one out of three with Nortok Hot Springs, Va. - The Homestead Giants and the Covington Cubs played a two-game series, which the former won by the scores of 4-1 and 3-2. These games were two of the best seen on the local grounds. In the first game Johnson of the Giants and F. Jackson of the Cubs pitched splendidly. Errors by Jackson's mates were responsible for his defeat, as the Cubs outattacked the Giants. Ragsford's fielding was a feature of this game. In the second game the teams struggled hard and the game was fast. The result of the game was uncertain until the last man was retired. The features of the second game were the fielding of the Kydd and the pitching of Parker for Giants, and the fielding of Wingo and C. Jackson for the Cubs. The Columbia Cubs Baseball team overwhelmed the famous colored jerseys from Yankees, by the close score of Hudson Giants 4 and Columbia Cubs 6, at Van Cortlandt Park last Sunday. The same lasted for two hours. Both teams were lined up in the pink of condition and showed that each team contained some very good batmen and also some nilly little diamond players. Although the Hudson Giants are scheduled under Semi Professional standing, the Columbia Cubs, composed of all amateur players, succeeded in whipping these fists and experienced ongagents. The feature of the game was the excellent pitching duel between Tom Lavender for the Hudson Giants and "Jas" Hines for the Columbus Cubs. All the spectators, who witnessed the game were pleased with having seen a fast and interesting "battle". Wise. Jimmy. "Jimmy," said the food mother to her smart eleven-year-old, "what became of that little pie I made for you as a treat yesterday? Did you eat it?"

"Yes; I think so," answered Jimmy. "She wasn't as school to day." — Lloyd on Greg Bail Dirk Redding was accorded of being excitable and having a brave to go up in the air when an incoming team wanted to gain the upper hand.

TRX NEW YORK AQUATURDAY; AUQ. 7, 1998 Miss Rae Wins 2 Championships Little Jamaican Girl Overcomes Mrs. Wade in Hard 3 Set Match for Met. Championship. Teamed With Mrs. Cornelia, Captures Metro Doubles Title. Miss Mae Ray, the versatile tennis player of Jamaica, R. W. I., who holds the National Championship in this country, annexed two other titles to her lot last Saturday and Monday, by beating Mrs. Lottie Wade of St. Marks Tennis Club, in ladies singles and teamed with Mrs. James Connick cleaned up in ladies doubles. The match in singles between Miss Rae and Mrs. Wade came after these ladies had played some of the hardest players in the Metropolitan District to reach the final round. The case with which each had disposed of their opponents assured their followers that some keen competition was to be expected when they met. Only one game was won from Miss Rae in the succession of rounds she played before reaching the final. This was scored by Miss Beatrice Moore, partner of Mrs. Wade in doubles. The National Champion registered love sets against all her other opponents. Mrs. Wade had to be content with stronger players among whom were Mrs. Estelle Brooks Vision and Mrs. Susie Machison, who last year defeated her for the title when Mrs. Wade was looked upon as a sure thing. This year Mrs. Madison held Mrs. Wade to an 8-6 set in the beginning but Mrs. Wade's superior strength told and she routed her smaller opponent with a 6-0 set for the closing stanza. The grand stand was crowded Saturday afternoon when Mrs. Wade and Mrs. Rae took the court against each other. Depute the fields of the authorities, wages of various taxes were made by the spectators. From the very start it was seen that Mrs. Wade was thoroughly capable of holding up her end with the little Jamaican lady. Praat and every game went to deuce. The game consisted principally of long low drives from the case but only on the latter. When Mrs. Wade went to the net she seldom tailed to place out of her opponents reach. Mrs. Rae does not play a net game at all. Every point was being fought for with the greatest caution. The first set finally ended with Miss Rae the winner 7-5. Mrs. Wade was apparently just as fresh as she was before the beginning of play. Mrs. Rae seemed almost exhausted. The authorities then did something which had quite some bearing on the outcome. Though the rules state distinctly that there shall be no rest between the first and second sets, some one saw it to patch a break in the net which had caused some confusion when the ball went through it instead of over the net. The time taken to patch that net was sufficient to allow Miss Rae to recuperate. Despite the rest she had gotten however, Mrs. Wade went after her and won the next set 9-0. Last Set a Walkover.. The last set proved to be a walkover for Miss Kae. The champion completely lapped her opponent and repeatedly drove past her. Mrs. Wade seemed to have shot her boot in the second set which she won with a hard struggle. Miss Kae succeeded in winning a love set in the last frame. Monay afternoon those same two ladies along with their respective partners battled for supremacy in lanes doubles. Mrs. Wade had as a partner Mrs. B. Moore and Miss Kae was teamed with Mrs. Connick. The game came out pretty quickly as was expected with Miss Kae also Mrs. Connick on the winning side. Mrs. Wade and Miss Kae were pretty proud of their success. Mrs. Connick was still very proud of her. AS FREEDOM THE INDEPENDENCE OF WEST AFRICA are dishing out the big problems in the country and and other parts in the country.

Almost a dozen New York basket wrestlers are making the trip to Philadelphia to take part in the tournament staged by the Chauqua Tennis Club of that city. While the tournament begins Saturday the seventh, the Philadelphiaists have declared their willingness to hold the first round open till Monday in order to allow both teams to spend their Sunday to Harlem.

Most of their players are having their entire expenses for their week's stay in Philadelphia defrayed by their respective clubs. This is no more than should be done, yet it sets a precedent among eastern clubs. Indications point to the New Yorkers making a very creditable showing. Mrs Wade looked upon as a sure thing in ladies singles despite the fact that Miss Slow is a possible entrant. The men are expected to give a good account of themselves too. Spinner is reported to be right on edge now and Johnson is playing better trums now than he has ever played before in his life. The other players are sure to give their opponents lots of trouble.

According to physicians who recently was Tassegee Institute, where he predeceased Professor Sunday, that work in a mass murder case is not a matter of interest, but that violence was managed in mindless hit-scrapes which were built into the heart of the crime. Tom Doyle, the former chief of the police, said the Honorable Honorable Will He Be Able To Come Back? examined Johnson at Johns, the former champion in spite of his thirty eight years, is still in fine physical condition. Consistent training and sensible living while he was abroad, have helped him retain his position, power, and time mastery. Johnson probably is in a good condition today, and other heavy-weight in the country. I have many trouble will be in trying to get a while comments to take him.

This will indeed be a poor excuse for dolging Johnson, but nevertheless there is a prevalent fear that many white fighters, will use this excuse to keep Johnson far from even the hope of championship. Many people who believe that the united Johnson affair wasn't just on the square would like to see Johnson from the innery even more likely to be recruited to come back, just to prove that the Havana trophy was taken and that Demone can't be stole from his trophy to champion until he can beat Johnson.

SEASON'S BIGGEST EXCURSION ON AUG. 23 The most up to date excursion bus run from this city is being planned by Hamilton and Company, a company interested in promoting pleasure events for our people. The large steamship "Highlander" with a capacity of 1500 has been chartered to take this company's guests to Beer Mountain on Aug. 21. The trip alone is worth more than the price charged for the whole day's pleasure. Ordinarily boats plying between this city and Bear Mountain are charging twenty-five cents and a dollar each way, but the managers of Hamilton and Company, who are promoting this event, are charging but $1.10 for the entire day's outing. Their object is not to make money alone but to see that Harlemites have a good day's pleasure. To assure dancers of an enjoyable time, Smiling Marie Wayne's orchestra has been engaged to amuse them. The Highlander is such a fast boat that the trip can be made up in time to allow the excursionists the hours at Bear Mountain before making the trip back home. Though their boat's official capacity is 1500, Mr. Hamilton has declared that he will not dispose of more than 1200 tickets. This he thinks will allow everybody plenty of room. Tickets may be secured at any of the addresses: Mme. L. Laing Workman, Chairman, 119 W. 133rd street; Chas. J. H. Hamilton, secretary, 115 W. 153th street; Wm.

And He that searcheth the hearts knoweth what is the mind of the Spirit. Pastor Bolden said that this is the day our intention is for intercession. He will use us if we let Him.
