V., JANUARY 28, 1881 BEAT KNOWN PRICE FIVE CENTS Haitian Representatives And Congressional Investigation 01 American Occupation—Says Inquiry Was a ‘Humbu’ Roy Murray. Says They Took His Shop by Fraud and His Sister Edna Lost Her Hairworking Tools and House Furnishings. Roy A. Murray applied to Justice Ford in the Supreme Court on February 11th, for an injunction to restrain the Live Ever, Die Never Society from withholding his butcher shop at 2057 Seventh avenue from him. He said that the Society offered to swap a kingdom for the butcher shop, but didn't carry out its bargain. He didn't take the proposition in earnest, he said, and anyhow would rather have his butcher shop than a kingdom three days. The society is said to be an offshoot of the organization which formerly called itself the Colored Settlement Workers and then changed its name to the Relief Association of Hebrew Settlement Workers, its members posting, it is alleged, as Jews. E.W. Robertson, the "supreme being" of the Live Ever, Die Never Society, is in the penitentiary in Trenton, N. J., thanking his stars that his sentence for teaching boys to steal was only five years and not "life." Adopt Hebruic Names. Neonly did the colored Settlement Workers, change the name of that organization to the Retief Association of Hebrew Settlement Workmen, but it was altered that some of the members had adopted Hebraic names and have allowed their beards to grow so carry out the intended deception. Murray, who aparently has been marked as a backsliding disciple of the "Live Ever, Die Never Society," said that the defendant, members of his organization got his shop by fraud. He said that they, and particularly Robertson, induced him to believe they represented a homo fide religious organization and that if he would give up his business and follow the teachings of Robertson and the defendants he would live forever. Murray added that while he was in a weakened mentalcondition he gave a bill of sale for his butcher shop, but that he received no consideration for it. About the same time he was committed to the psychopathic ward at Bellevue Hospital, where he was under observation ten days. When Murray got out of the hospital he was made an elder of the "Live Ever, Die Never Society" and was supposed to be endowed with all the possessions that went with the exiled office. On the other hand, he complained, that during the ten days he was held at Bellevue the defendants had taken possession of his shop and got the lease on Roberson Went to Jail Shortly after all this Robertson was arrested as a fugitive from justice and was sent to the penitentiary. he sent to the pentimentary, have visited there", said Murray, "and he told me he possessed supernatural powers and could, leave the prison as soon as he desired and join his disciples. I believed this and conveyed my shop without consideration, and after I discovered the fraud I took the business, back and endeavored to rebuild my trade. I had to exclude all the defendants from the business because no customers would deal with me while they were around. Although all the defendants are, Negroes, they claim they are original Jews, and all the men seek to let their heards, grow long in order to impress the ignorant and the ignorant that they are members of the Jewish race, with misleading that nearly all of them were born in the United States. They have since barred me out of my shop." Miss Edna Murray, sister of the plaintiff, made affidavit that she was induced by fraud to turn over all her property, including all her housekeeping articles and hair-dressing tools with which she was being earned her living. She went to be laid at the headquarters of the society, "where the defendants plotted and perfeced crimes to induce other unsuspecting colored robbers to do likewise, under the belief that Robeson who called the premises his 'Kingdom,' had supernatural powers." One Member Is Murdered. It was also alleged by Miss Murray that Robert Diggs, one of the members, was shot to death near Atlantic City and that two fellow members who were held in connection with the killing were discharged from custody for lack of evidence. Murray said that Robertson provided for him N. J. he would graduate in 1949. Murray alleged that the defendants are receiving money under false representations from charitable international groups as Hebrew entertainment workers. The defendants are Afflicted J. P. Plums, who calls himself "Shannon the den of the "Retired American new Settlement Worker." White, vice president, all kind of business." "motton" at the premises maintained by the organization at 21 West 130th street. Simmons contends that Murray and his sister gold their market to the defendants for $900 at a time when he was in financial distress. Justice Ford was unable to determine who was telling the truth. "This is not a proper case for information related to alluding aloud" said the Justice Ford. Murray will remain with the court before he can go under the shop." Col.

Colonel Little, who four times was awarded the croix de guerre and was made a Chevalier of the Legion of Honor, captivated the audience that filled the chapel by an address full of thrills, in which humor and pathos were blended. He described the exploits of two privates, Henry Johnson and Needham Roberts, who put the 15th New York on the map by stopping and turning back a large raiding party of Germans; and told how the famous regimental band, Europe's Band, had won the hearts of the French throughout the cities and convalescent camps of France, and had done more than the efforts of any diplomat to establish friendly relations between the French and the Americans. and Miss Tourtellot who judged men not by their color but by their character.

Roberts, of the French throughout the cities, 96, after serving as surgeon dentist in a French hospital during the war, was elected a member of the New York Board of Aldermen, and his work on the board is reflecting great credit on his Color-Sergeant Broke Regulations. He told how Color-Sergeant Cox had promised Governor Whitman that he would never lower the colors and insisted on standing upright when ordered to be down during an air raid, and how later when three of France's greatest generals had saluted the flag with tears in their eyes, he had bent the flag toward them in return claiming that the regulations that forbade this were not made for an occasion like that. Colonel Little, who was a major in the 15th New York, of which Colonel William Hayward was in command during the war, is reorganizing the regiment as a unit in the National Guard, and maintains that the colored soldier when properly trained is fully the equal of the white soldier in fighting ability.

Lang had hanged his brother at Mirebalais, but the court did not take up this charge. M. Sannon charges that the court never wore near Mirebalais, Hinche or Las Cabohas, "where the reign of terror causes the most terrible damage in human life and property."

Vincent are stopping temporarily in the Union Square Hotel, but they will proceed to Washington to seek interviews with the leaders of both the Hangtown and the Summertown it is their intention to possible, personally to the cause of the Marian people before President-elect Harding after the inauguration. "We have come to the United States," M. Sannon said. "To say most emphatically that the naval court of inquiry presided over by Admiral Harry T. Blayd and sent by Mr. Daniels to Houlst was merely a comedy. The court went over there to make an appearance of investigating on two or three cases where some American officers were concerned. So the court called witnesses for evidence only in these cases." Investigations Programmed. "It, acting this thing were prearranged. Everything she was refused a hearing in the court was still not approved that the defendant would change her sentence. Take, for instance, the name of Linda Laye.

UTICA NEGRO FARMERS IN ANNUAL CONFERENCE Utica, Mifflin-February 10th was a great day for the farmers of Mississippi, it being their annual gathering at the Utica Normal and Industrial Institute for the purpose of discussing their problems and trying to find a way out. Dr. Geo. W. Carver of Tuskegee, came over with his demonstration. Reports showed that in the community surrounding the Utica Normal and Industrial Institute, Negroes have been steadily gaining in land ownership for the past eighteen years; so that at the present time, about 300,000 acres of land are owned by them. William H. Holtschaw, principal, was re-elected for the fifteenth time as president of the Utica Negro Farmers Conference. The Farmers' Stories H. D. Ford of Church Hill, Mississippi, told of how in a humble way, a few years ago, he began to try to get up in the world. Today, he owns 1,600 acres of land, in the highest tier of property of his race in his country and very high income. law—in requested by all his neighbors, white and black.

That is he married with his wife not to go to the prisonment from every Saturday to get a weekly pension. They agreed to live. In future, she did. With William deLinckle notable Haitian wrote to the court that Lireu. Lang had hanged his brother at Mirebalais; but the court did not take up this charge." M. Sannon charges that the court never wear Mirebalais, Hinche or Las Cahabas, "where the reign of terror causes the most terrible damage in the Minister's Gom. Barbett, former head of the United States Marine Corps, was correct, when he stated there had been indiscriminate killing in Haiti. Methods of Torture. M. Sannon added that tortures such as the watec cure, hanging, and electrocution "have been perpetrated on the peaceful people." He declared it would be interesting to know why the court of inquiry never left Port au Prince in the three weeks it remained in the island. M. Sannon said the Haitian people have suffered greatly during the William Administration because the President has made it a practice to send mostly Southerners, who have an inborn dislike for Negroes, to the island. Another thing to which M. Sannon took exception was the assertion made by Franklin D. Roosevelt during the recent campaign that he had written the pretty good job of it. What the Haitian people want, a Haitian constitution and had "made a according to M. Sannon, is first, immediate suppression of military crimes, and reorganization of the Haitian military, and police forces, and the evacuation of the American forces of occupation, and, thirdly, the convocation at the earliest possible moment of a constitutional assembly. NEGRO ELEVATOR MAN PROVES HIS HEROISM A young Negro elevator operator, Charles Alexander, proved his heroism and devotion to duty Tuesday night, February 15th, when a fire in the six-story Ametta apartment, 294 West 92nd street, where he is employed, drove twelve families to the street. Although the elevator shaft was filled with suffocating smoke, Alexander drove his car up and down until all the occupants of the building were safely conveyed to the street. Some of the tenants were invalids and had to be help to the elevator. The fire damage amounted to $15,000 to $20,000. Tributes at Ham Alfred T.

He asked about many things at Tuskegee Institute—minute details of the working of the school; whether the students were happy and comfortable; whether the teachers were happy; and he asked what he could do.

White. "I have known some distinguished men and a great many good men, but I have never known anyone who combined so completely the opposite characteristics of manhood—the sweetness and the strength, the capacity and the simplicity, the worldly wisdom and the rational piety of character. Mr. White was in a most singular degree a spiritual-minded man of the world-active in affairs but maintaining an interior sense of the divine consumption."

Poultry Demonstration. M. F. Baird of Marks, Miss, a postal specialist, delivered some important instructions about chicken raising, including the proper construction of poultry houses, and took the agents, to a barn yard where he demonstrated the function of good layers and the culling chicks. In addition to submitting their rural reports, the Demonstrators detailed experiences in teaching hygiene organization and general housework in education homes and, rural schools. The local speakers were Mrs. M. C. Cain on home making; Mrs. T. O. Cain, on Negro home life; and Liaisha Montgomery on "The value of demonstration work to the rural Negroes." M. Hubert, state agent of the Smithsonian Fund, in charge of farm demonstration agents, was an interested observer of the session and submitted many suggestions. T. M. Campbell Thumgese, a veteran of fifteen years experience in practical demonstration and farm work, imparted much valuable information that will prove exceedingly useful to agents in their work. Prof. Burden, the county agricultural agent, was an attentive visitor. Principal Lawrence C. Jones, of the Piney-Woods school in Rankin county, submitted encouraging and helpful remarks stressing particular attention to twelve prominent issues that are now concentrated upon the development of the rural market Negroes. A Missionary Task. Taken altogether the short control sought prominently into view the work and responsibility devolving upon the young woman demonstrator. She has a missionary task fully equal in comparison to that of a consecrated missionary to the heathen in foreign lands, a woman of intelligence, industrially trained. and accustomed to some degree of refinement, she receives her commission and ventures out single-handed and alone, with the scope of an entire county as her parish (much of it practically inaccessible) upon a work of human uplift, which is not understood, or appreciated by her own people among whom she is to labor, nor by the employers on whose lands they reside; her mission is to develop a new viewpoint between the planter and his tenants; her first recourse is to the former, to whom she exhibits her credentials and outlines her work; in most cases she soon comprehends something the worth of, gives the practical support and sympathy; next, comes the uncharted job of winning the confidence and support of the lowly masses of her own people, and awakening in the workplace thereof the long neglected sentiments that should abide around even the humblest fireside and home; for in the last analysis the country-home is the sheet anchor of national growth and the guarantee of its perpetration. A Comprehensive Work The work of the home demonstration agent embraces practical industries to add to the comfort an convenience of the home, intelligent selection and preparation of food, sanitary methods, cleanliness, gardening, poultry raising, the production and preservation of food for home consumption, the protection of health and the proper care of children and the sick. The State of Mississippi has a regular department in charge of this important work, ably presided over by Miss Kate Power, of Jackson, Miss. it is supported jointly by the State and Smith-Lever Fund, and already the good effects have become sufficiently apparent to warrant the Board of Supervisors in the counties contributing to its support. The natural complement of the Woman's work is embraced in the plants of the Smith Hughes Fund for vocational, agricultural and industrial instruction, the benefits of which should be extended to all of the rural schools. Possibly this can only be done by consolidation of schools. By these methods our schools can be made to produce a race of intelligent agriculturalists to supplant the aimless and shiftless field hand of the present day. AN IMPORTANT WORK To the Editor of THE ACE: An important meeting was held here on Monday, the 16th of October, a number of worthy women of our race, held by Mrs. Alice Oliver (the wife, of Geo. H. Oliver, principal of the Clifton-State Public School and of some political prominence), I consider the human-science demonstration work among the rural masses of our people one of the most important steps that has been inaugurated in the South; I deem it of especial importance that the plan of vocational and agricultural instruction contemplated by the Smith Huguenot cooped and pushed along with the home development plans, the possibilities of the two sexes. That plantative life may be largely remodeled, and our people developed into intelligent agricultural workers; and in time eliminating the system of supervision that is now in practice, which in many cases is arbitrary and brutal. The above-mentioned plans are for training and vocationally educating our people or rather, reaching a large mass that are in a great measure practically beyond any available system of education now in practice. Moreover the system can command the support of the state and national governments, and when understood will be approved and abolished by the time the practice of the practical possibilities promise much for the general betterment of our people. On that account I am concerned to have our leaders generally acquainted with the work. ISAIAH T. MONTGOMERY. Mound Bayou, Miss. Upper Mississippi Conference.

When folks give as explanation, "It's the law of compensation, bad luck the other fellow's bad; Do you ever stop and wonder, what to split, asunder, ventures good which always turned out bad. And in desperation, that was born of aggravation, and you couldn't see done such wrong; you had put your best foot forward, paid every borrowed, in fact you'd done your best your whole life long. Then explanation of the law of compensation, even though it fit the case, doesn't help the situation, brings you little consolation, when you have lost out in a race. "Burning the candle at both ends," such as disregarding the rule lack of attention to the mind and body, all must bow to the law of compensation. It is well to stop and check one's self up every now and then to determine you are living according to the laws of health and longevity.

The Japanese activity of the fleet, the barbaric denial and unrestricted of the power in "The Departure" and the haunting beauty of "every scene and gale maze" sound powerful proclamation at the height of the crisis, highly conductor in heavy beam, highly-wrought energy ball sloshes abruptly in every time and shape of expanse are detected while powers in the marriage. The distinguished bearers ignored the special request to be alone between each movement; agitates pronounced the breaks with a continuous vibration to strike motherly. The last two movements were repeated, and it was no relation, impressions which led the conductor to congratulatively shine hands with his principal violinist, the Misson Gladys Daniel and Daisy Dubois. That are exemplified the acknowledgments due to the orchestra as a whole for their fine performances, the secret of which in each case was whole-sweated in their work. The organ was introduced very judiciously. Colander and rhythm were as a whole vividly apparent in each selection, with certain confidence. The concert was in the Small Public Hall. That that venerous was sufficient is a sorry comment on the mediocrity of suburban musical taste. The pathic interest of the occasion is referred to by a correspondent in a note to "The Advertiser." Restoration of the late composer," he writes, "was all the more real because of the strong likeness in figure and manner of the son who has called the String-Players' Club into being again—a likeness which became the more marked as, in his hands, the baton-revised the same characteristic movements" of arm and fingers that were associated with his father. It was a bold thing to risk comparison between father and son in the conductor's chair, and it is high praise to say that the youthful delirious run to the occasion and revealed possession of the temperament and musical instinct for securing a good performance. There was an commonal need of firmer control, which more experience will bring to the conductor, but there was much to praise in the interpretation of the essential spirit of the orchestral works performed." Coleridge-Taylor Memory Is Perpetuated by His Children When Samuel Coleridge-Taylor died the thought appurtenment in many which was the pity that so magnificent a genius should be in the world before he had reached its real maturity. Dying while yet in his thirties, Coleridge-Taylor just completed his eighty-second opera—the "Hawaiian Ballet Suite"—the MSG of which lay signed on his piano at Aldwick when death came. For a while we have had the consolatory thought that the great Anglo-African composer's memory would be preserved in the works he had accomplished, the most constituting a musical edifice of no mean proportion. Here in America we have been most familiar with his Hawaiian triptych, his piano transcriptions of Ness primarily, a few of his many beautiful art songs, and settings of vauces of the instruments used in the Episcopal church service. Recorded on the concert orchestra of the New Amsterdam Musical Association, directed by Alfred W. Ross, has presented excerpts of Coleridge-Taylor's ornate compositions—the first movement of "Serenes from an Imaginary Ballet," hard frequently as a piano number, and "La Caprice de Nannette" from the Petite Séance de Concert. A cantata, "The Atonement," has been heard, and, if I am not satisfied for Washington, D. C., Coleridge-Taylor Society has sung "The Quad-Seer" a fantasy for women's voices with baritone solo. The Wesleyan Band of Biverton and Palmyra, N. J. under Lieut. F. Eugene Mitchell instructor and director made its initial appearance on Wednesday evening, February 9th, at the P. O. S. of A. Hall, Palmyra, N. J. The band was given a ceremonial reception by the people of the two towns, and many of the most citizens of Burtington county move in to attend. Compassion among those present were Eldar N. Flagg Jr., sherd of Burtington county, and Freshwater George Rogers. These gentlemen took advantage of the opportunity to express their gratification at the turning of this musical organization. Sherif Flagg commanded the work of the man and emphasized especially the civic pride arraigned by an organization. He plogged his cooperation in any way necessary. Freshwater Rogers, of a devine he had long cherished so such an organization in the local community, and complained to the members of the band on their progressiveness. Generally, there has come to us a more particular knowledge of the scope of Christian growth, accomplishments and gradually we have been developing and commensurate with the worth and merit of his compositions. And perhaps through the days there has come slight, but interesting, immanence of a physical inheritance from the great composer, an inheritance calculated to give reasonable value in perpetuating his name and fame. His inheritance is embodied in the persons of his two children, a boy, has a great significance of the place occupied in his father's thoughts by the man whom he sent forth—and a girl, Gwendolen. Some comment hast told of the promise afforded by these two young people, but it still gives evidence of inheriting to a large memory the guilds of the learned father. Just recently, through the courtesy of my good friend, Relief, it is now in England, there has reached me some interesting discoveries in Hawthorne and Gwendolen. --- At Plymouth England, there has recently been formed the Samuel Coleridge-Taylor School and this organization is reported to be the first of its kind in Kingston. Its patron is Mrs. J. F. Coleridge-Taylor and its initial appearance is Guildhall, Plymouth, on January 26th, 1881. Two concerts were attended and evening—and Miss Gwendolen Coleridge-Taylor was given a role at both performances. The hard under Lieut. Mitchell has made special progress. The instruments have been purchased, all current expanse has been purchased and the band has a new balance in hand. The band was the first of a series of entertainments for the uniforms. And it was gratifying to the men to find their work appreciated by the homefolks to such an extent that receipts accounting from the performance were more than sufficient to make the required first payment. Incidentally it is mentioned that this occasion marked the first time the F.O. of S. A. Hall had been used by a colored organization. She gave a Musical Monologue, "The Clown and the Columbine" (Henry Ackermann with accompaniment for trio by her father, the principal theorem of which was recognized as the chief melodies of the Petite Suite de Concert). This piece was Lawrence W. Brown (the young American Negro pianist in England with Roland Hayes), George East, violinist, and Hylan J. Grassi. Miss Gwendolen's second Monologue was "Avventurum," (David I. Moore with incidental music composed and played by herself). In an encore the concert the Daily Mercury said that "Principal interest was contemplated in the appearance of Miss Gwendolen Coloriage-Taylor, daughter of the W. African composer, who contributed some musical monologues. She was a talented elocutionist and gave "The Clown and the Columbine" with national compassy." The evening's program was as follows: the personal participation of Miss Gwendolyn, the Society greeted partitions by Coleridge-Taylor. Our American musicians are not invited with this phase of the lamented composer's works, and it will be of great interest an opportunity to read of the manner in which some of them preface an English singers. In its account of the comma, the Mercury Rain that the afternoon concert was not engaged in by the Society that was in the evening vocal and instrumental recital. The account of the evening recital March—"Welcome" ... Mikell BAND Piano duet—"Pupachi" ... Gould GEO. MADISON and TEACHER Violin solo—"Dreaming" ... King SAGAMORE DORSEY Piano solo—"Reverie" ...

Mikell BAND along which the distinctive genius of the late Samuel Leigh leads us are pleasing, with many a peep of real humanity though the profounder depths of human emotions are not the least it is not surprising that those whose lyric scene has been the composer's spell should devote themselves to some special works. In south Coleridge-Taylor Society, the first of its kind in the house an initial appearance before the public last evening, their programme was modest in scope, being confined to a few songs, their performance was such as to impire the hope of audiences and efforts will develop into something more ambitious, we shall have from them an account of "Hiawatha's Leighing Star" the choir, under the conductorship of Mr. Duncan H. Harrison, sang with one outstanding quality. It was that sense of phrasing. There was cohesion between the parts, none quality was the result. The mood of the lyric, goo, Drum solo, with piano BUDDIE BROWN & Miss G. BROWN Violin solo—"Andante".....Beethoven Mr. MIKELL March ..... "AMERICA" Proserpine" emphasized again the choir's special turn of a phrase; but fuller capabilities were revealed in alluring rendering of Coleridge-Taylor's fine setting of "The Lee Shore." All together an encouraging and praise- The roster of the Welcome Band is as follows—John H. Williams president, J. Young, Gun Cherry, Robert Kun, Chas. secretary, Albert McCombe, librarian, Joseph Cowell, business manager, Wm. Young, Gun Cherry, Robert Kun, Chas. Payne, James Groen, Gun, Johnsons, Johnsons, Elinie Kline, Wilberrath, Peel Peel, Peel Peel, Harron Still, Thomas Allen, Chas. Singer, Frank James, Clarence High, Walber Edgerton, Herbert Austin, Edward Jones, Holland Vincent. --- I might mention that Roland Hayes sang at these two concerts in a suitable triumph. In the afternoon he sang two groups, "Le Mason—(Mossenet)," "J'ai pleure en reve," (Hue), and "Life and Death—(Faylor)." In the rental, the audience was persistent in recalling him follower of "Onaway! Awake, Beloved!" from "Hinwatha's Wedding Faylor," and a group of songs by the same composer, included Hayes is the Island of Garden," "A Lament" and "Dawn." In Mr. Hayes sang six spirituals, including "I'm no glad trouble (Dett)," "I'm going up to Heaven and sit down" (Hayes), and "Go down, Moses," "By and by" and "Pater, (Burleigh)." Latest advice are to the effect that local differences in Nashville anent the approaching annual meeting of the National Association of Negro Musicians have been strained but. That is, the two contending factions have gotten together to the extent of an understanding agreement to work together. I informed that H. P. B. Johnson, in the presence of Arthur Price, president of Mr. Johnson's local, agreed that Fisk should back after the room and board of the delegates during the three days. He also agreed that Fisk should have one whole day's meeting. It is reported that Prof. Work and President McKenna of Fisk are asked to agree on the meeting to have one day's meeting at State School and another day go to the Y. M. C. A. or some other there. Given an interest interest, perhaps, in the face that the son, Hiwaintha, in fellowship directly in his father's footsteps as a composer and conductor. Some of his compositions have received a public rendering, and now come known that he has taken up his father's mantle as a conductor. In 1906 the Sir Vincent Coleridge-Taylor founded the "String-Players' Club," in local building Croydon, a London suburb. Young Hiwaintha Coleridge-Taylor has taken his father's place on the director's stand, and it is under the central control of him that this group of English players are serving up their warre. Giordano his sister, occupies a player's desk. A recent performance by the String-Players' Club inspired interesting comments from the Croydon' Advertiser. Incorporated in the program were two instrumental numbers, three pianoforto solos and three songs by the child's bandmate. The songs were "Sine她 by the beacon hymn," "Unminded of the room," and "Thou art often, my Beloved," the latter the composer's special favorite; the pianoforto solos were "Negro Melody," Valse Squia, No. 2, and Valse Squia, No. 4 of the orchestra numbers were Novelletion No. 1 and the Hiwaintha Ballet Op. 62 (his last composition). Norman Nagle, burtress, song the songs, and the pianoforto solos were given by Maud Agnes Winter. As the master emblem, then, it only remains for the two Nassau leaders to lift it he knew that they have arrived at an unanticipated as to what is written. President Henry L. Grant, in the February issue of The Nassau Nassau, official group of the association, places the entire matter before his readers, saying that "publicity has become necessary" because a worthy weekly newspaper "President Grant memorizes the location for women." The Crawdon Advertiser had the following to say of this recital: Of far more than transient interest was the concert of the String-Power Club at Crawdon Public Hall on Friday. Within this organization there is special devotion to the words of the late Mr. S. Coleridge, whose laurel-adorned monochrome had a sense of honor. 2. Bound (of directors) has only of vairy relation to the situation. 2. This appendix concludes uniformity to the progress of frequency and unity of organisation. 2. The responsibility of correction ought to be given grief between both heads of organisation. 3. An order related under management for Johnson's land and devoting it to the management of John White is to be furnished by a decree of the House of Commons, and the amount of the grant furnished must be by all members of the House of Commons. His music lives." Of this there was abundant evidence, and his skill must truly have hovered in the room. There was a sprunger lick with the overrevered Anglo-African composer-composer during the greatly heritage expressed in music scores. The living life—to them may be technically wrong, but it is all expressive—and there is in the process an conclusion of the orchestra of Mr. Alfonsina, Coventry, England, his only son still in his teens and in figure and facial characteristics to his long lamented sire. Having largely identical musical genius, who probably could get nearer the sweet harmonies of the sound qualities of music eloct to distinctive a stanza? After a year and eight months in England and Scotland as soprano soprano with the Southern Synagogue Orchestra, Mrs. Hattie Kinei Marks of 204 West 10th street is again at home. Mrs. Revisia was formerly a member of the choir at St. Mark's M. E. Church, Wett 3rd street, and had never managed primarily in concert or stage. May 1919 She is a native of Ralgh, N. C., and attended the Henderman Normal institute, Henderson, N. C., and Knoxville College at Knoxville, Tenn., from which she graduated in 1909. The family had moved to Jersey City in 1904, and after graduation Misi Kinei taught at the Norfolk Mission College at her dad her old school, the Henderson Normal. At Norfolk she was a singer in the choir and public performance in the school orchestra. Revisia in 1915, she came to New York to live, most of which time at her present home. She joined St. Mark's in 1916 and sang there until going to England. While in England, in addition to the concert work for which she was engaged, Mrs. Reavis is in great demand for private engagements and she did considerable amount of church singing. Private audiences before which she sang included Kirk Alder, Samantha Dimetri of Russia, wife many members of the English nobility. Mrs. Reavis shows wonderful improvement in her work. Her voice has gained in strength, in color and in sweetness. She sings with delightful artistry, much of it natural, but much of which she gained through study and work while still settled, but it is to be hoped that she will remain here and give her own people the benefit of her much improved art. . I was very glad to shake hands with President Henry L. Grant, of the National Association of Negro Musicians, last week. He came up from his Washington home and spent three day chrysanthemum flowers. He brought definite information concerning the association', official music, "The Negro Musician," as he had with him copies, of the February issue, the first that has appeared for several months. It was not Mr. Grant's fault that the magazine was delayed in publication, but it was not the case that he was perfected at and succeeding the last session of the association in New York, went glimmering when it came to the point of brass tacks—or, in this case, to coin of the realm. Then, when other matters were straightened out, Mr. Grant found himself afflicted with a printer from the area, and who, finally, it is alleged by Mr. Grant, gave him a job that would make Gutenberg turn over in his grave. However, the Musician is out for the current month. President Grant sweares he has probed by past experiences and will in future be prepared to more nearly approximate punctuality in getting to the journey. Two pages of typewritten adenda and crests would indicate that Mr. Grant is justified in his complaints. New Yorkers will have an opportunity of hearing two singers from the Pacific Coast on Monday night, February 21st, when Mrs. Annie B. Ranger, soprano, and Elvy Lively, tenor, both of Los Angeles, will appear at St. James Presbyterian Church, 99 West 373th street, in a song recital under management of Sidney Woodward. They will be supported by Hall Johnson, violinist, and the program is scheduled to start promptly at 8:45 o'clock. The second artist recital under auspices of the Indianapolis Music Proms gave the Indianapolis folks a chance to hear Kemper Harreld, violinist, director of music at Morehouse College, Atlanta, and composer on January 25th. Miss Adalthea Timmel played the accompaniments for Mr. Harreld. Other numbers were given by Wallace Woodfolk, with Ellen V. Thomas at piano; Mao Clemons, pianist, and Lucretia L.

A rare trouser was enjoyed by all who heard Dr. Robert W. Baglani at the "Big Meeting" on Sunday Lost when he addressed the men on the subject: "A Four-Square Religion for Men."

Mrs. Rose is well known in New York through her association and generous help of philanthropic efforts, also in her active work during the Liberty Loan drive.

Taylor, for the past few months associated with the Social Service Department of Lincoln hospital, has begun with the Prenatal Clinic conducted by the Maternity Center Association at the office of the New York Urban League. Miss Taylor has the distinction of being the first colored nurse in the employ of this association. When the Center established its office in Harlem, it was on the condition that the community supply office space and equipment. The nurses are paid directly through the Center office. Through the efforts of Miss Adah B. Thoms, superintendent of Lincoln Hospital, the Association was induced to include colored nurses on its staff. This clinic, about which there has not been a great deal of publicity, is undoubtedly one of the biggest and most vital agencies in the community. During its existence of the past nine months, upwards of 900 cases have been handled.

Lincoln Reid, commander, will celebrate Washington's Birthday by a reception at the 15th Regiment armory, its use for that occasion having been sanctioned by the commanding officer.

Chavis, 411 Quincy street, Brooklyn, a former officer of the 8th Illinois Infantry has been commissioned first lieutenant in the 15th Infantry. Leonard L. Payne, who was regimental supply sergeant was one of the most conspicuous, and valuable non-commissioned officers of the old regiment in France and at home, has returned to the colors. Recruiting for the 15th is progresing satisfactorily and there will be no organized drive for, new men for the regiment. The practical assurance of a ewn and superb armory and the rekindled interest and enthusiasm for the regiment will bring out the high standard of recruits desired. When the Fifteenth is reorganized under the new tables of organization of the U. S. Army, which is modelled on that of the French Army, there will be many opportunities of advanced non-commissioned rank for specialists, such as radio and signal men.

Church After a very strongeous spiritual campaign all last week Bridge St. Church on Sunday wrote another enviable page in the history of its second century. In the morning Mrs. Nora F. Taylor, the Chicago Evangelist, occupied the pulpit and, backed with her gospel choir preached on Salvinica, Hebrew 5:9. The speaker as well as the congregation was filled with spirit of the day. At the commission service in the afternoon the pastor, the Rev. W. Spencer Carpenter, preached the sermon from Deuteronomy 29:29. The sacramen was administered to 413 which was the largest in the history of the church. The night service taxed the capacity of the building when nearly 2,000 persons gathered before the opening to hear the Evangelist. Mrs. Taylor was thoroughly filled with spiritual fervor long before she announced, her subject "The Call of Matthew," St. Matthew 9:9. As the speaker progressed with her subject it was evident that she had answered the call of her vocation and the audience also felt the power of the speaker. Twenty persons united, with the church and over $300 was collected. Mrs. Taylor will deliver a special message to men and women at J. O'clock and will also preach at the night service.
