Their justice grouped under two heads: one, the new first, much stress will be laid upon the backwardness of the Haitians, and themselves. The pretext which caused the article of this series. The characteristics, will be taken up in a subsequent article, attempt to show that material improvement. Let us see what they are.
The building of the road from Port-au-Prince of certain sanitary regulations in of the public hospital at Port-au-Prince. regulations is not so important as it may rule. Haiti has been a remarkably healthy epidemic as used to sweep Cuba and thus, moreover, were of a purely minor by a board of health in any American fundamental, because there was no need, of the hospital, long before the American institution but which, it is only fair to say, and more up-to-date methods of Amer-
escape and put himself at the head of several hundred followers in a valiant though hopeless attempt to tree Haiti. The America of the Revolution, indeed the America of the Civil War, would have regarded Charlemagne not as a criminal but a patriot. He met his death not in open fight, not in an attempt at his capture, but through a dastard deed, while standing over the camp he was shot in cold blood by an American Marine officer who stood concealed by the darkness, and who had reached the camp through brichery and trickery. This deed, which was nothing short of assassination, has been heralded as an example of American heroism Of this deed, Harry Frank, writing in the June Century of "The Death of Charlemagne," says, "induced it to tilt to war with any of the writing I have tried with which history is seasured from the days of the Greeks down to the recent world war." America should read "The Death of Charlemagne" which attempts to glorify a black smith on American arms and tradition.
No Peons in Haiti.
There is a reason why the methods employed in road building affected the Haitian country folk in a way in which it might not have affected the people of any other Latin-American country. Not since the independence of the country has been there any thing like a poem in Haiti. The revolution by which Haiti gained her independence was merely a political revolution, it was also a social revolution. Among the many radical changes wrought was that of cutting up the large slave estates into small parcels and allotting them among former slaves. And so districts lived on his own plot of land, a plot on which his family has lived for perhaps, more than a hundred years. No matter how small or how large that plot is, and whether he raises much or little on it, it is his dad he is an independent farmer.
The completed highway, moreover, continued to be a bath in the Haitian wound. Automobiles on the road; running without any speed limit, are a constant inconvenience or danger, to the native, carrying their market produce to town on their heads or loaded on the backs of animals. I have seen these people scramble in terror often up the side or down the declivity of the mountain for places of safety for themselves and their animals as the machines shorted by. I have seen a market woman's horse take flight and scatter the produce loaded on her back. I have heard an American commercial traveler laughingly tell how on the trip from Cape Haitien to Port-au-Prince the automobile he was in killed a donkey and two nigs. It had not occurred to him that the donkeys might be the chief capital of the small Haitian farmer and that the loss of it might entirely bankrupt him. It is all very humorous, of course unless you happen to be the Haitian pedestrian.

Three Men Saved From Mob By Gov.Bickett,FreedbyCourt
(Special to THE NEW YORK ACE)
Greenboro, N. C.—Judge Thomas J. Shaw, sitting in the Gifford county Superior Court, issued an order on September 20, calling for the liberation of George Troxler, a Negro, held since July 17 on a charge of having criminally assaulted a white woman, Mrs. Riddle. Two other Negroes held with Troxler had already been freed, the evidence being insufficient, in all of the cases.

Troxler's release came as the result of a habeas corpus proceeding brought by his lawyers, Judge W. P. Bynum, Judge R. C. Strudwick and Sidney S. Alderman, the writ being argued before Judge Shaw on September 13. The state solicitor offered testimony which based his case against Troxler. Troxler bloodhounds, which picked up a trail at the Riddle home and followed it, to a place where Troxler and several other Negroes were sleeping.
"Bloodhound Test" Not Sufficient.
Judge Shaw, in his decision, declared that the "bloodhound test" was not sufficient evidence on which to base a conviction in the absence of a showing of probable cause. The "bloodhound test," he declared, could only be used to cor-
The initiative effort of the Five million dollar campaign and Evangelistic Movement of the A. M. E. Church, was held at Bethel A. M. E. Church Brooklyn, on Wednesday and Thursday, Sept. 22, and 23. Over one hundred and twenty-five ministers of the first Episcopal District rallied there to the call of Bishop W. H. Heard, the presiding bishop of the district and before adjournment of the morning session laid over $5,500, on the table in cash for an educational endowment, church extension, Evangelism, Church pensioners, missionaries and social service.
The pastor of Bethel, the Rev. C. E. Wilson, who is serving his fourth year there, welcomed the greatest meeting of the A. M. E. in Brooklyn, with ample arrangements perfected for their examination.
This movement inspired by the Inter-church World Movement, which the bishops and General Conference refused to join, but planned a five year survey and campaign under the management of their agencies.
The Rev. H. H. Cooper of Newport, R. L. and Rev. M. E. Sydes, of Providence, R. L. have been selected to manage the campaign in the district. The Rev. Dr. Cooper is district surveyer and the Rev. Dr. Sydes is the financial secretary.
The afternoon of the day was given over to Dr. Cooper, who outlined the plan of his survey and to Dr. Sydes, who conducted a roundtable talk on the subject of the drive and financial plans.
In the evening addresses were delivered by the Rev. H. P. Anderson of Philadelphia, Rev. H. K. Spearman of Newark, N. J., and Rev. R. W. Wright, Jr. editor of the Christian Recorder. The sessions closed at 1:30 p. m. Thursday and a large number of the attendants accompanied the bishop to Coney Island where pastor Wilson had arranged a sumptuous dinner at the famous Stanich's Restaurant. Those taking the trip were Bishop and Mrs. Heard Rev. and Mrs. P. Cole, Rev. R. Wilson and daughter Ida; Rev. Elipha Byrd, Win. Byrd, W. J. Oliver, H. H. Cooper, W. H. Hoxter, N. J. Robinson, J. H.

Bank Building Alterations
Alterations on the building for bank and offices at 135th street and Lenox avenue, are now in progress and the same will be completed within the next sixty days. This job has been delayed for the last three or for months because of giving the tenants in the houseample time in which to find other quarters. Even thought the Court ruled that the tenants, should vacate since August 5, families have been permitted to remain in the building, without rent, and it is hoped that within the next few days the three families will find other quarters so that the alterations on all of the floors may be completed at once. The cost of alterations on this corner will aggregate about $25,000.
robate other testimony. Troxler established an ironbound abbot to the effect that he was in Burlington at time the crime was committed.
The Troxler case excited great interest, as it was because of an attempt by a mob to lynch Troxler and the other two Negroes that Governor Bickett ordered a machine gun company from Durham to protect the jail at Graham, Alamance county, where the three men were confined. Governor Bickett gave orders to the captain commanding the company to shoot to kill if necessary in protecting the prisoners.
As a result one white man, member of the mob, was killed and two others seriously wounded. But the lives of three innocent Negroes were saved. Judge Shaw is a Greensboro citizen.
C.M.E.'S OF ALABAMA
RAISE ABOUT $70,000
Birmingham, Ala.—Led by Bishop Charles Henry Phillips of Nashville, Tenn., the C. M. E.'s of Alabama have just concluded the most remarkable single financial campaign remember among Negro religious bodies. He is in promises or in plains; and he is not but in actual cash payments; added by the small Kentucky and Ohio and California mission conferences, nearly $70,000 was raised as a memorial offering for the fifty years of marching of Colored Methodism. This Church was organized fifty years ago and the semi-centennial celebration of the event took place at Thirgood C. M. E., Church last week. Prominent lay members and ministers from all over the country, together with a large body of women were in attendance. Bishop Phillips, who was the prince mover and bishop of this district, delivered the principal address, dwelling largely upon the triumphs of the Church from 1870 to 1920. Starting in the South, said, nearly every state in the Union and nearly every state in Africa now have a home church for the host of Miles. He paid a glowing tribute to the late Bishop L. H. Holsey, who was senior bishop of the Church from 1873 to 1920, serving actively for 47 years, the longest service of any bishop in the history of Methodism.
Bishops W. H. Miles, R. H. Vandehorst, J. A. Beebe, G. W. Stewart and M. F. Jamison are the gallant dead, while the living bishops, beside Bishop Phillips, are R. S. Williams, Augusta, Ga.; E. Cottrell, Holly Springs, Miss.; Isaac Lane, Jackson Tenn; R. A. Carter, Chicago, Ill., and N. C. Cleaves, St. Louis, Mo.

A second swing around the circle just concluded by THE New York Acq staff correspondent revealed a marked change in political conditions as regards the attitude of the new body of Negroes who have recently migrated from the South to various points in the East and West. The first survey showed a condition of apathy and indifference, as was told in special articles appearing in THE Acq under date of September 4, 19 and 18.
The second survey convinces the survey present that the former apathy and indifference has disappeared and that there is now apparent a lively interest and desire to take advantage of the new extent of the new opportunity offered for the exercise of the franchise at the franchise.
Coming from Alabama, Georgia, Arkansas and Mississippi in largest numbers, with other states represented by scattering numbers, these migrants have located mostly in Michigan, Indiana, Ohio and Illinois in the West, and in Massachusetts, Connecticut and New Jersey, in the East. In their new homes they have had no political or civic obstacles save in their own inclinations. They are free to enter into the exercise of the right to the suffrage simply by conforming to the requirements for qualification.

Many would be glad to see such a change in democratic local policies as would enable them to subscribe to the principles of that party and thus bring about a substantial division in the Negro vote.

They are and always have been allied with the Republican party and it is entirely to the Republican party that they are looking for relief and for the changing of present unbearable conditions. In reply to arguments and promises from other sources they invariably take the stand that notwithstanding any existing shortcomings on the part of the Republican party it is the only party now in existence that has the ghost of a show to remedy oppressive political and civic conditions and to restore to the color of man the rights and privilege which have so effectually been taken from him during the past seven years by President Wilson and the Democratic party.
To this end they are to a man and woman enrolling themselves now and qualifying for the right to vote in the November election. And they are enrolling as members of the Republican party, intending to vote the Republican ticket. As one of the New Jersey leaders put it, they realize that it is "Harding and Hope! or or and Despair."
Reasons why the Negro voter should support the Republican party for President and Vice-President of the United States continue to be received by the editor of The Age in response to his letter to various leaders of the race. The gist of the many expressions can be summed up in the concise statement that the Republican party is the only party that offers the remotest chance to the Negro, politically, civilly and economically.
Wisconsin, Missouri, New York State and New York City are alike in the expression of legality to the Republican party and its tenets and each one gives forth the same thought clothed in different form, that the Democratic party stands for anything historical to the Negro while the Republican party is opposed to anything which favors of prescription or prejudice.

THE STAGE AND ATHLETICS
The first dramatic offering of the season and the first in which the Lalapette players have appeared at the Lalayette Theatre for several months, will be presented to lower of the drama accompanying Monday, October 4. "The Crimson Alibi," which thrilled and held captive the undivided interest of thousands of the theatregoers during its long run at the Broadhurst Theatre, will be the attraction. It is one of those thrilling mystery plays in which a detective is the principal character.
A man is killed in a dark room with a silver dagger he had kept on his deak as a paper knife. Several men had consistently good reasons to kill him. All were in a position where they could have committed the crime. There was nothing left to show who could have done it, but the detective found out. How he did it is what makes the play so interesting.
The play, which is staged with a prologue, four acts and nine scenes, promises in every way to be one of the outstanding dramatic successes of the season at the Lafayette.
The Quality Amusement Corporation has spared no expense in making this production an artistic success. It will be played by an all star cast.
SMARTER SET IN LAST WEEK AT LAFAYETTE
The Smarter Set in its new offering, "Bamboula," is in its second and last week at the Lafayette Theatre and continues to draw record-breaking crowds. S. Tutt Whitney and J. Homer Tutt have established themselves as big favorites in Harlem and every member of the company is working hard to make "Bamboula" a big success.

"Humoresque" Appealing Picture.
After all, lavish settings and spectacular scenes are not absolute requisites for the truly great motion picture. "Humoresque," presented first and exclusively on Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday of this week at the Lincoln Theatre, West 135th street, is among the big plaques of the year because it impresses one with its sincerity and intense

VERA GORDON in the Cosmopolitan Production HUMORESQUE A PARAMOUR AIRCRAFT POTENCE heart appeal. It is a story of human beings as they are. Tears and laughter intermingle in it as they do in real life. The story of the genius of the violin, who aided by that beautiful gift, mother-love, rose from obscurity and poverty to the heights strikes a responsive chord in every heart.
"Humoresque" was adapted from Fannie Hurst's novel of the same name. The chief characters are portrayed with rare understanding by Alma Rubens, Gaston Glass, Vera Gordon and Dore Davidson.
DUNBAR CLUB. RAHWAY.
GIVES ONE-ACT COMEDY
Rahway, N. J. "The Slabtown Convention," a delightful one-act comedy, was very creditably presented at Kinch's hall.

Susanne Step-and Fetch-It, Mrs. Alfred Wright; secretary, Miss Sluviana Bell, Mrs. Hattie Reed; corresponding secretary, Mrs. Mary Jane Boldstand, Miss Lorena Bond; treasurer, Miss Watcham Scrouge, Miss Mita Anderson; sergeant at arms, Mrs. Hercules Armstrong, Mrs. David Alston; chaplain Mrs. Peggy Turner, Mrs. Sidney Archer-pastor, Rev.

A NEW BOXING CLUB TO
OPEN DOORS IN HARLEM
On the same site formerly held by the old 135th street A. C., Palace Casino Madison avenue and 135th street, but under different management, a new boxing club is planning to operate in Harlem as soon as the License Committee grants license. It is undoubtedly for regular use in the game that the element which formerly the sport under the old law when the 135th Street A. C., held away has been driven out of the pastime.
The Commonwealth Sporting Club has for matchmaker Lew Raymond, a man well informed as to the relative ability of boxers throughout the country. When seen by representative of The Ace, Raymond promised to furnish some of the most attractive cards obtainable. While the club is located in a neighborhood inhabited almost entirely by our people, Raymond does not intend to cater to the Negro boxer any more than the white boxer, unless the former's ability such catering. In other words this club be used by the boxers in this vicinity for training quarters, but the boxers staged at regular intervals are to be of more than local importance. The best will be, sought throughout the country to exhibit their wares before patterns of this new sporting club.

Ideal T. C. Grounds Sold For Building Purposes
Through real estate notices inserted in the daily papers we learn that three courts on the grounds held for the past few years by the Ideal Tennis Club have been sold by the people from whom the Ideal Club has annually leased. We have not been able to learn the intention of the purchasers, but it is the common belief that buildings of some sort are to be erected on the historic site.
All of which means that local tennis players will be without a place of enjoyment next season unless they take to the public courts in city owned parks. This will mean an awful setback in the progress of Harlem tennis devotees.
Tennis has progressed by leaps and bounds in this section owing to the central location and the accessibility of the Ideal Tennis Club's grounds. Its rapid development, furthermore, may be laid to the attraction of the passers-by, many of whom have been sufficiently interested from watching others to affiliate themselves with one of the four clubs playing on the 138th street grounds.
It has been no trouble to the Harlem resident, whether he lived in 129th street or 142nd, to dress in tennis clothes and walk through the streets to this centrally located play ground and there get a few hours of genuine recreation. The oversubscribed membership of each club renting a court from the Ideal has proven the popularity of the sport and the appreciation by the players of the location of the grounds.
Whether one has gone to play at sixthirty in the morning or three-thirty in the afternoon, he has seldom reached these grounds without finding some player on hand ready and willing to engage in a friendly game. More often, to the large membership of every club, and the shortage of playing space (only one court being allotted to a club except the deal, which has two), players have had to wait for a court upon reaching the grounds. It has been this close competition which has resulted in the rapid progress of New Yorkers in recent years.
They should have an equal vote on all matters pertaining to the club. They should be allowed and elected to fill any office for which they seemed qualified. The freedom of the club should be theirs at all hours and we would see development in decent, respectable club life among our people herefore unequaled among other cities. Our Ace will be glad to receive opinions of its readers on this urgent subject.
MOTHER ZION TENNIS
CLUB STAGES TOURNEY.
A church club which bids fair to
Serious Setback.
The passing of the Ideal Tennis Club grounds means probably a hull of one season in this growing sport, unless something is done in the near future to make the lease with the new holders of the property, or procure other grounds. The service granted to tennis players in public park courts by poorly paid attendants, is hardly sufficient to keep any player in condition for tournament play. These courts are rarely in condition more than three days a week and so numerous are the permits handed out by the Park Commissioners that a player is allowed on a court but one hour at a time. Making a trip from one's residence in Harlem to any public park whether it be Central, Franz Siegel or MacCoomba Dam in the Bronx, and being allowed to play but one hour is discouraging indeed, but making a trip and being told after play because a ground that you play because it is rained out before will so disgust the spirit until more convenient courts are provided. We have received suggestions to encourage local clubs to band together and purchase a desirable site in the Bronx for the building of up-to-date courts and the erection of a modern club house which will ever be a monument to the race and the fair city which local players represent.
Why Go Out of Harlem?
This thought is wonderful. It shows the bigness of the person who first advanced it masmuch as he realizes that we are not merely in this sport for a day not even a season. We are in the game for late or until it is proven detrimental to our mental and physical development. But, we ask, why is it necessary to leave Harlem to purchase a site for our enjoyment? Why go into a section where we are not wanted? True, if we refrain from going places because we are not wanted we will get off the earth, for we are scorned in our own locality and frowned upon even when we go into the ocean for a swim. Yet going into the Bronx will mean an expenditure of carate each time we wish to stroke a ball or witness a game of tennis. Most people we have approached on the subject have said that Harlem has no desirable place to offer. Those people seemingly have overlooked the grounds between 15th and 15th streets, between and including 8th and St. Nicolas avenues. This site is now being used by the Harlem Tennis Club, a white organization. This club has five of the most beautiful courts in New York on this piece of property. We learn that the Harlem Tennis Club rents these grounds for a song from its owner due to some friendly relations existing between him and some of the club's officers. Under no conditions could the owner be induced to leave these grounds to Negroes, yet he or his agents are willing to sell the whole block.
Net Too Big.
Purchasing a whole city block sounds like a wonderful big proposition and it is. Yet there are few propositions in this vicinity and for this vicinity that we consider too big for the two hundred thousand Negroes living here. We know nothing about the price asked for the square block, nor are we going to ask gest what it might be, but we believe Harlemites can get together and buy it.
Let Out of Towners Help You.
Then, too, the buying of this site need not be continued to Harlemines. We are sure that members of nearby clubs in Long Island, Brooklyn, Williambridge and the several towns in Jersey would feel slighted if they could not share in the ownership of such a notable place as this would surely become. A club house could be erected offering all of the luxuries which modern clubs owned by the other races offer to their members.

MOTHER ZION TENNIS
A church club which bids fair to eventually battle with the famous St. Marks Tennis Club for leading position in the net game has come forth under the name of the Mother Zion Tennis Club. This organization is closely affiliated with the church in W. 150th street, after which it is named. Practically every member is a member or a frequent visitor to the 150th street office. Mother Zion Tennis Club is very fortunate in owning its own courts, which is located directly behind the church building. Members are supplied with keys and are permitted to themen, the theymen, except Sunday. This one fact has greatly increased their membership for many people who cannot arrange their time at work to make engagements with day workers get a chance to play when others are at business.
Stages Annual Tourney.
Recently Mother Zion Tennis Club staged its annual journey for the club championship in ladies singles and mixed doubles. Spirited games were witnessed in each of these events. One of the biggest surprises of the day was the victory over Mrs. B. Williams. The latter had been looked upon as a sure-winner.
ner among her sex, but the clever Mrs. Augustus upset all predictions with her sturdy game. Mrs. Augustus gained a second victory in this tournament when teamed with Vincent Gulliver in mixed doubled, she and he comped away with that event.
Gent's Finals Saturday:
Finals in great singles and doubles will be played off Saturday, October 2nd, on the club court. Some lively playing is looked forward to. Mother Tionz Tennis-Club desires to invite all its friends to come and wincess the games free of admission.
JINX!
Last Sunday at McComb's Dam Park the Columbia Cubs played their thirteenth and last baseball game of the season. Their opponents were the Highbridge Nine—a white team. The Columbia Cubs lost one of the hardest games they have played this season with a close score, 6-5.
In the first innning of the game Highbridge was leading with a score 20-10, but at the end of the seventh the Columbia Cubs were leading with the score 3-5; then followed the final eight. Highbridge filled the bases and every ball the Cubs pitcher threw against a stone before reaching the catcher's glove and skrocketed away from the catcher Highbridge scored 3 runs in this innning. This season the Columbia Cubs won 10 out of 13 games played, thus attaining an average of 725. For an amateur team and considering the teams they played, they have done splendidly. Due credit must be given Mr. Bourke, their manager, on the splendid way he managed the team, and also the rooters.
The Columbia Lab will now turn out
all of the materials it will manage

BORDENTOWN OPENS
FOOTBALL SENSOR
BORN STOWS, N.J. - The football season at the Bordentown industrial School opened last week with a game between teams comprised of last year's varsity and the new material made for this season. The White's known the Blues was captured by Sherman Cule, quarterback on last year's team. The newcomers, commonly called the "Whites" were led by John Watson, who showed a wonderful knowledge of the gridiron game. The Whites proved to be too sturdy for last year's Varsity and the latter went down to defeat after leading with a 6-0 score at the end of the first half. The Blues' downfall came during the third quarter, when Wheeler made long gains and Watson shot a clever forward pass to Lowe, who went over the Blues' line. The Whites added to this score and the final was Whites, 8; Blues, 6.
LINCOLN GIANTS WIN
TWO FROM TESEAU'S
The Lincoln Giants outspored Teseau's Bears in both games of a double header attraction at Dyckman Oval last Sunday. In the first game, the Lincoln used two pitchers, Reavis, and their kingpin, Cyclone Joe Williams, while Wiley was on the receiving end. These select batteries held the heretofore for hard hitting Bears to one lone tally. Fullerton, the pitcher who a few weeks ago pitched a no hit, no run game, held the Lincoln to five lats, but they were bunched and netted the former colored champs two runs. The final score of the first game was Lincoln 2: Teseau's Bears. 1.
Big J. Jesse Stearn started the second game for his hat but was pounded hard by Lincoln batman that he had to give way to Godfrey. The latter worked well during his sojourn in the box, not allowing the Lincoln's to score in the last four innings, but the lead gained by the colored team was more than Teseau's batman could overcome.
Lincoln Giants 0 0 0 0 0 2 0 0 0 -2 5

Local Tennis Players Have Easy Time Playing to Victory Miss DeLoach and George Smith Graduate from "Ham" Class by Winning Annual Tourney.
Close after the national championships in tennis each year self-appointed committees invariably headed by Charlie Knowles, the well-known real estate man, plan and promote what they term a "Mam Trophy", so termed because no player of recognized ability is permitted to enter. Local enthusiasm runs high each year in this annual classic which helps largely to settle who is the best among the worst racket wielders of New York.
Variety of Prizes
Added tone has been given to this event each year by the thoughtful Mr. Knowles humorous manner in selecting the prizes. We have been informed that the winner last year received a genuine Smithfield ham. A rumor was about that similar prizes were to be distributed this season but following on his custom Mr. Knowles foiled the crowd when he made this year's race a real classic, presenting each winner with a hand-made cup Mr. Knowles was rendered splendid, assistance in securing these prizes by Counselor H. E. Hupaice Williams, a royal tennis devoiler. The work of chief referrer was splendidly taken care of by L. E. Spooner, president of Grenville Tennis Club.
Miss DeLoach Wins
In ladies singles Miss Julia DeLoach, formerly of Montclair, N. J. but now of Harlem, came through a winner after having battled with ladies who seemed destined to beat her. Miss DeLoach's hardest games were played against Mrs. Theresa Brooks Alston and Miss Beatrice Moore. Both of these ladies won the first set from Miss DeLoach in their respective matches, only to be overcome by the sturdy Harlem girl in the contest for two sets out of three.
Judging from Miss DeLoach's end-of-the-season form, she should surely make rapid strides in big tennis circles next season. Few players of her sex are more consistent than she. Inasuch as she never rushes net, her game is almost purely defensive as her drives from the base line are not of the powerful variety like those of Mottie Wade.
George Smith Victor
From the beginning of the tourney George Smith of the Ideal Tennis Club was looked upon by those in the know as the most likely winner in singles. Some few argued that Alexander, who was in another bracket, would overcome this chop stroke player.
True to expectations Smith breezed through the other contestants easily. Alexander of St. Mark's Tennis Club never reached the finals, having suffered a neat trimming at the hands of Townsend of the Ideals. The latter really proved himself the dark horse of the tournament as he had not been looked upon seriously by the other contestants. Townsend upset all dope, however, by reaching the finals after disposing of Alexander and Clark and some few others.
In the finals Smith completely outshone his clubmate, Townsend, not allowing the latter to score a set. This proved the victor out of his class when matched with Hams. Therefore he, like the other winner, Miss DeLoach, were given certificates to prove that they are players of the first order.
ever loving cup as did Mrs. Teeling who won the mixed doubles match in a partner of Smith's. Tested by Alexander Smith also won the doubles event in an awfully castable. The "Ideal Man" should therefore have received three cups he had to go with two and a promise to win a third as Mr. Morgan, an amateur of Harlem's popular real estate business, refused to carry out his promise and donate a cup. Mr. Morgan decided on the way following the chief referee's decision to detail him for not showing up four days had passed to play in first round. Some little ill feeling was arrived against Mr. Morgan by his act of getting the committee did in no way urge him to live up to his promise if he was against his principle.
NEW YORK COLORED
Through the untiring efforts of Jesse Garland, one of the first colored men to take a live interest in golf in the country, there has been founded a permanent organization for Negro golfers of New York known as the New York Colored Golfers, or N.Y.G. Through last recently organized, the organization, has membership to what would be justice to the Negro existence. Among the golf clubbers are Lawrence Foster, Dale Bremner, Jesse L. Garland, Arthur C. Gibbs, Maton and Herbert Young. For the most important offices of president and secretary, these men have elected Jesse Garland and Foster, respectively.
In all likelihood, the New York City-founded Golfers of America are devoted for an eventful and pleasant life. Members of this club showed wonderful devotion to this game in hgone days when they regularly journeyed all the way to Van Cortlandt Park to indulge in round two with a friend or new acquaintance, and oftimes alone, with an organization formed, these long-nouns should become a thing of the past. One of the benefits afforded to the organization should be the aid should offer its members in making engagements with one another. There is no doubting the fact that competition will improve these players' game. Two of their members, Aaron and Gibbs, have already proven this with their regularly weekly matches. When these men are started their rounds were made in their figures and only through consistent practice did they finally get down to 92. Latest reports from their most recent matchs Aaron with an 82 and the fast improving Gibbs with an 86.
With players of this calibre on the roll, and with a little perseverance the New York Golfers' are bound to succeed. The whole world likes a wager and these boys are sure to develop and continue to improve their present rate. On September 29th they played at inter-club tournament.
St. Christopher High Field Day at New York A.C.Games Relay Team Wins First and Second-Parker and Anderson Auto Prize Winners also, and Boston Wins High Jump
Scoring 24 points in the track and field and ice and being beaten only by the New York Athletic Club with its heavy Olympic and college champions, the St. Christopher Club of scoring young athletes put over the highest impressive performance that he has ever seen in ground circles since the palely days of the Salem-Crests and Smart St. Club, where nine-limited representative teams first, two seconds and a third at the Fall games of the K.Y.A. C. contested at Traverse Island Saturday afternoon, Sept. 25.
Parkin Scores Impressive Victory.
The first 5 points were scored for the Palm Beach boys when Wim S. Parker, the elongated discuster, who has turned out to be the sensation of a bury track season, breached in an easy winner of the 1000 yard handicap, off the Ward mark. Impressed with the big game in which Palm Beach won 54 run at the Bay Area Gymnasium the week before, Matthews had honored his handicap from the limit of 55 to 85 yards in Saturday Face. This proved no obstacle whatever, for Parker jumped in with a twenty yard cut in theorking time of 2:19 2-5.
Anderson Takes. Second in 51-18.

There must have been some foundation for the charges made by the Olympic team for the Committee did not handle the Olympic team as they should and that the transportation and housing facilities provided for the team were abominable. When a prominent figure in athletics at Bartow S. Weeks is involved in obstructing or obstructing these charges, the athletics must have been punished in all the kicking they did.

His clutchmate, Edgar Padmore, who is rapidly coming to the front as a classy young sprinter, won second prize in the Lily yard dash. Padmore was in triumph, helped on the tape for first place. Roy P. Morse of Salem-Crevent was fourth off 1 1-2 yards in his semi-final heat. Benny Lander of Alba jumped 20 feet for third place in the broad.

With only an hour's rest, Parker came back on the track and with a handicap of 130 yards, gave St. Lea's team a 100-yard run, the race of his life in the mile run. At the beginning of the last lap Lea went away from the bunch and opened up a gap of 25 yards. Parker did not start to sprint until half way round the oval when, with a power-speed, he came after the flying Leaic, just failing to tip him on the tape.

THE NEW YORK AGE, SATURDAY, OCTOBER 2, 1920
It is really a serious matter when one female clerk allows her ill-fitsings toward others to cause, her to a "Snake in the Grass" not by reporting another girl being married. Whether the one called up to G. P. O. reported the two called up to G. P. O. reported all three we don't know, but we do know it was wrong. Three colored female clerks have already been compelled to resign for the same reason. Whether or not these three are married we don't know, but there are some of another race married and it isn't advertised. A white official at G. P. O. was quoted as saying: "You colored girls down there (City Hall) stick fain, don't you?" Wake Up! Mr. A. Williams of Flushing also returned from his vacation, attempting in a modest way that he was seen very often in Harlem and actually polling a twin baby carriage.
Miss Price, better known as the new Vamp, is very popular among the boys. Mr. Roberts seemed to have completely lost his heart and was married in the southland during his vacation. (Southern papers please copy.)
"Cleo" is now running close second
Miss Reulah Henderson continues to improve, occasional visits by the clerks will mean a great deal. This station has been well represented in Flesh Colored (Black) Star Line, Odd Fellows and other parades as color beafers, musicians, traffic regulators, mule-riders, etc. Just now with Mr. Boyd enjoyed himself dining also auto riding with Miss P—e.
Mr. Sam Brown returned from his vacation, much benefited by the great, his pal, Mr. J. "P." Morgan, leaves today for his vacation.
Miss A. Smith of Brooklyn is in our midst again, will recover from illness and still retain that "Well, I thank you" smile.
Writing of smiles, the bachelors have very broad ones these days since the new girls come to City Hall station. They couldn't work their 50-50 proposition on the old, so they are trying to work it on, the new ones with winning smiles.
Miss Raglan Marshall, Jackson and Miss Hassan have returned from their vacations looking and feeling much benefited by same.
Quite some time ago there were numerous articles as to colored clerks placing themselves in position that was unusual. We stand this continues in some stations but quite an unusual thing in City Hall because the "Scandal Kings" are very outspoken and ever on the job. The latest victim in the nick name minging in the street, we account of his fondness, as we think for the ladies. Failing to reform the race track, Rev. Green has moved from N. Y. to the Staten Island table. The happy expression of Miss J. A. Johnson, the folks are back from the country. This office has received a number of new ladies as clerks, among whom are, Miss Price of Long Branch, N. J.; Miss Treadwell of Brooklyn; Miss J. and Miss Walden of Manhasset. Sorry to state there seems to be quite some jealousy existing between the old and new girls and the latter seem to be camping up in the boys' dormitory.

(Continued from First Pair)
at Port-au-Prince and noticing the well paved, well-heated streets, will at once jump to the conclusion that this work was done by the American Occupation. The Occupation goes to no trouble to refute this conclusion, and in fact it will by imagination corroborate it. It one should exclude: Why I.1. should you be absent in Port-au-Prince and the city Port-au-Prince is!' he would be almost certain to receive the answer: "Yes, but you should have seen it before the Occupation." The implication here is that Port-au-Prince was a multitude and that the Occupation is responsible for its destruction. It is clear that at the time of the interruption, five years ago, there were only one or two paved streets in the Haitian capital, but the contracts for paving the entire city had been let by the Haitian Government, and the work had already now begun. This work was completed durably, and the Occupation did not pave, and had nothing to do with the paving of a single street in Port-au-Prince.
No Educational Advance.
One accomplishment I did expect to find—that the American Occupation, in its five years of absolute rule, had developed and improved the Haitian system of public education. The United States has made some efforts in this direction in other countries where it has taken control. In Porto Rico, Cuba, and the Philippines, the "stumpt, as he said, as he did," the school systems. Selected youths from these countries were taken and sent to the United States for training in order that they might return and be better teachers, and American teachers were sent to those islands in exchange. The American Occupation in Haiti has not advanced public education a single step. No new buildings have been erected. Not only has the government to the United States for training in a teacher nor has a single American teacher, white or colored, been sent to Haiti. According to the general budget of Haiti, 1919-1920, there are, teachers in the rural schools receiving an little as six dollars a month. Some of these teachers may not be worth more than six dollars a month. Bag af败, not ought to be a American rule, af败, not ought to be a American teacher, in the country who is not worth more than that salary sum.
Another source of discontent is the Gendarmerie. When the Occupation took possession of the island, it disarmed the Haitians, including the various local police forces. To remedy this situation the Convention (Article X), provided that there should be created—without delay, an efficient constabulary, urban and rural, composed of native Haitians. This constabulary shall be organised and offered by Americans, appointed by the President of Haiti upon nomination by the President of the United States. These officers shall be replaced by Haitians as they, by examination conducted under the supervision of a board to be selected by the South American Officer of this constabulary, present of a representative of the Haitian Government, are found to be qualified to assume such duties.
During the first months of the Occupation officers of the Haitian Gendarmerie were commissioned officers of the marines, but the war took all these officers to Europe. Five years have passed and the constabulary is still officered by marines, but almost without exception by pirates or non-commissioned officers of the United States Marine Corps commissioned in the gendarmerie. Many of these men are rough, uncouth, and uneducated, and a great number from the South, are violently steeped in color prejudice. They direct all policing of city and town. It falls to them, ignorant of Haitian ways and language, to enforce every minor law. Notes to say, this is a grave source of prejudice. Where the genial American "cop" could, with the wave of his hand or club, convey the full majesty of the law to the small boy transgressor or to some equally innocuous offender, the strongarm tactics for which the marines are, are apt to be promptly evoked. A pledge in the convention that "these are enphied by Haitian" who could qualify by liking a pledge, become a mere scrap of Graduates of the famous French military academy of St. Cyr, men who have actually qualified for commissions in the French army, are denied the opportunity to fill even a lesser commission in the Haitian Gendarmerie, although such men, in addition to their training, because of their untimely loss of life, are required to complete familiarity with the ways their own country make ideal guardians of the peace.
Brutallties and Atrocities.
The American Occupation of Haiti is not only guilty of sins of omission, it is guilty of sins of commission in addition to those committed in the building of the great road across the island. Brutalities and atrocities on the part of American marines have occurred in the past, and the cause of deep resentment and terror, Marines talk freely of what they "did" to some Haitians in the outlying districts. Familiar methods of torture to make captives reveal what they often do not know are nonchalantly recused. Just before left, Rort-a-rouse a Haitian boy stealing sugar of a whirl and instead of arresting him he battered his brains out with the butt of his rifle. I learned from the lips of American Marines themselves of a number of cases of rape of Haitian women by marines, often at tables on benches and offices in the office and they played before me without restraint. I remember the description of a "caco" hunt by one of them: he told how they finally came upon a crowd of natives engaged in the popular pardine of cockfighting and how they "let them have it with machine guns and fire fries, heard machine guns and fire fries, heard that a fire in Port-au-Prince created a "rather" creased up Haitian, standing on the sidewalk, to "get in there" and take a hand at the pumps. I appeared that the Haitian merely abused his shoulders. The captives of marines then languishing said: "I had on a pretty hood with a wrist that lambed him in the middle of the street. Sometimes you me and told me that the man was an ex-member of the Haitian Assembly." The fact that the man had been a member of the Haitian Assembly made the whole incident more lingerish to the audience of marines.
American brutality in Haiti is not to be found in individual cases of cruelty, insults and inscrutely though they are, but rather in the American attitude, well illustrated by the disgrace of an American soldier who is killed in his difficulty: "The smile with this whole business is the same of these people with a little money and education than they are so good as we are," and this is the byword of the attitude of every America to every Haitian. And the smile with this jung of cask and color prejudice where it never before existed.
Occupation Has Failed.
And such are the "accomplishment" of the United States in Haiti. The occupation has not only failed to achieve anything, worth while, but has made it impossible to so because of the disdain and mistreatment it has inflicted in the Haitian people. Through the present instrumentalities no matter how carefully the United States only desire to be fair to Haiti and make intervention a success, it will not succeed. An entirely new deal is necessary. This Government forced the Haitian government to take action to aid the can aid and American assistance. With that American aid the Haitian Government defaulted its external and internal debt, an obligation which would self-government the Haitians had seriously observed. And American supervision turned out to be a military tyranny supporting a program of colonization. With an opportunity to gain the confidence of the Haitian people, that opportunity has been destroyed. When American troops first landed, although the Haitian people were outraged, there was still nevertheless which might have developed into cooperation. There were those who had hoped that the "Dained" people would be policy of nearly a century and a half, suiting its fine stand in Cuba under McKinley, Roosevelt, and Taft, would extend aid that would be mutually beneficial to both countries. Those Haitians who indulged this hope are disappointed and Miter. Those members of the Haitian Assembly who which action was less hopeful of American promises, incurred unpopularity by voting for the Convention, are today bitterly disappointed and utterly disillusioned.
If the United States should leave Haiti today, it would wlove more than a thousand widows and orphans of its government, more handiwork than has existed for the country, recruitment, harbors and deportation, a whole people, to say nothing of the irrepairable difficulty in its own tradition as the defender of rights of others.
