Three Negro families have recently come to New York from Ocmulgee, Oklahoma, because of intolerable conditions there. Charlie Johnson an his wife, Lizzie, Allen Gatling and his wife Josephine, and Mrs. Stella Harris and husband, left Ocmulgee on Saturday, May 21st, reaching New York City on the following Monday at 3 p.m. The Johnson's home had been seized through pussoid legal proceedings, their only return from property, worth more than $1,000, being $30. The other families had similar experiences. Efforts to secure a more equitable adjustment had been met with the statement that the white people of Ocmulgee were determined to get rid of the colored residents. Failing to bring about their actual punishment, the story goes, with threats of a more serious nature, oppressive measures of every sort were to be applied upon one another by forming an unlawful pussoid legal procedure of all Negro-owned property, in desirable locations, to which any possible claim could be attached. Mrs. Johnson told an Age reporter that she had lived in Oklahoma for the past twenty years, and that she an her husband had acquired a comfortable little home, nicely situated and well-kept. The Gatlings, she said, had a more pretentious home. When these properties were taken from an unfair application of legal procedure, their efforts to secure satisfaction met with threats of a more serious nature. Heat Boy to Death. Mrs. Johnson sought the advice of a friendly white woman who had given her employment. This woman advised diner her to leave and offered assistance to pea that end. While Mrs. Johnson was sitting in this white woman's house, a colored boy was heaten to death in for the street just outside the door by a group of white men, because of some pea Col. Hayward Ret Finding Graves o Trip to French War Zone port for the French R to Reconstruct S --- Colonel William Hayward, whose Fifteenth Regiment, New York's coloured "Hell-fighters" served throughout the war in the Fourth French Army under General Gouraud, has just returned from the devastated area of France where he was being the leader of the men and women and recently he has been an eye witness of the necessities of the French school children. Tonight he said: "The sooner American school children come to the aid of their pals overseas the sooner France can resume the normal course of education for the young folk of the devastated regions. COLORED GIRL WINS PRIZE ESSAY CONTEST (Special to The New York Age) Washingtonville, N. Y.—Miss Clara Demphe, member of the junior class, high school, and the only colored entrant in a recent prize essay writing contest, was awarded the first prize, a $5 gold piece, for the best essay on "Americanism."

The Johnson, the Callahan, and the Harrises consulted together and decided to pool their financial resources and get away while they could. One of the men was delegated to purchase the tickets. While at the door, the party was approached by whites, who inquired as to where they were going. As a matter of precaution, the whites were told that the coloured families were only going to another town in the state, and the railroad tickets purchased in Ocumulge were to this point. Looking for Employment. However, no stop was made when this other town was reached, but the man handling this end immediately secured tickets from that point on to New York. Reaching New York, friends who were sought out secured a stopping place for them with a family on West 11th street, and were they are at present, are making every effort to secure employment. Mrs. Johnson who has been married twice, is the mother of five children and four of them are in Oklahoma. One son is in Council Bluff, Iowa. Two sons and two daughters left in the southern state are intending to follow their parents as soon as possible. Speaking of conditions in Oklahoma, these folks declare, that the feeling is very strong against the Negro, and that in many cases work is being refused them. One statement was that the whites had no further use for the Negro and that the colorful folks should be and hunt up their Negro President and ask him for help. The campaign report concerning President Harding's alleged Negro relations was repeated by the Oklahoma whites and he was referred to in terms of exceeding disrespect. The pleasant racial relations formerly existing in Oklahoma are reported to have almost entirely disappeared. Returned From s of Missing Men Zone Enlists His Sup- ph Restoration Fund at Schoolhouses. From the Swiss border to the English Channel a strip of devastation ranging in width from ten miles to fifty has been denuded of school buildings, be they large or small. Nearly two mil- lion children of school age have to continue their education in improvised sheds or in the repaired ruins of their former school houses. The French Restoration Fund is trying to raise, in the City of New York, and from the school children alone, the sum of $165,000. This means the reconstruction of eleven school houses in the shattered region. If the sum were thrice as large not a point would be wasted. The more the better, for in the weeks that I have spent in France I have come to recognize that the gratitude of the French people is a sentiment worth cultivating and worth continuing to cultivate. "A little nickel here and a dime there will not be missed by any one of New York's 900,000 school children but there are thousands of children of wealthy parents who might make their contributions in dollars. I hope that the fund grows to such an extent that it will require another fortnight to collect it all."

WORKERS JUNGROWED AT PAGEANT (Represent to the New York Age) Charleston, W. Va. — Negotiates delegates and visitors to the West Virginia Sunday, School Association, which held a three days' session here last month were subjected to a most humiliating experience to jim crowism on the occasion of the pagrant given to represent the history of the Sunday School from the birth of Jesus Christ to the recent World's Sunday School Convention held at Tokyo, Japan. About one hundred tickets had been issued to the colored delegates and their friends, and when these folks entered the State Armory they were not by masters who directed them to a segregated section separated from the rest of the delegates by a six-foot aisle and ropes, so situated that the colored lookers could get only a rear view of the actors on the stage and had no view of the background a scenery at all. Prompt protests to officials of the Association were of no avail. General Secretary Leonhart of the Kanawah County Association express of personal disapproval of the segregation and took it with T. B. Davis, in charge of the seating. No change was made and the colored delegates and friends left the armory, indignantly refusing to submit to Jim crow treatment. CHAS. GILPIN. ILL FROM OVERWORK: O.

Alabama Negroes Up Against Lily-Whites White Men Issue Vicious Propaganda Against Negro in Conventional Campaign—A View Seeking Appointment (the New York Age) Hampton, Va. to Republicans in this state are facing a situation anal- ymous that of North Carolina where the lily-whites are endeavoring to secure recognition from the National Administration through the appointment of Frank Linney as United States Attorney for the Western District of North Carolina. The Alabama situation is created by the aspiring of Gordon Ashley, a lily-white, to be Collector of Internal Revenue for Alabama. White Citizens of Georgia Endorse Gov. Dorsey's Stand Issue Signed Statement, Outlining Nine Methods of Relieving Present Racial Conditions-Signed by 50 Men Ashley was campaign manager for C. B. Kennner, Republican candidate for Congress, who was defeated at the last election by Congressman Rainey. This campaign was featured by the appeals sent forth from Kennamer's headquarters by Gordon Ashley, repudiating the Negro Republicans and appealing to the white voters on the basis of absolute elimination of the Negro. Vile Campaign Documenta. Extracts from lithographed reproductions of Kennemer's campaign documents are more bitter against the Negro than any Democratic literature ever issued in this, the 27th Alabama congressional district. One circular read: "Do you want to force the boys of this country again into camps hospitals and other places, side by side with the Negroes, and while these same hypocrite try to scare you by abhorning "Negro at the Republicans, they ask you to vote for, an Ohio Yankee, James M. Cox, who used to teach a Negro school, and for a League of Nations, the majority of which belong to the Negro and colored races. Every man on the Republican ticket from Harding down is a white man, and we practice white politics." Another large sheet bone photographic reproductions of Dr. Robert R. Morton of Tuskegee Institute and Emmett J. Scott of Howard University, Under Dr. Motton's picture was the inscription—"This is Robt R. Motton, president of the Tuskegee Negro School, who was carried to the peace conference to represent Alabama, by Pres. Wilson to advise with him on the treaty of peace." Under Scott's picture were the words—"This is Emmett J. Scott, Special Assistant Secretary, to the Secretary of War, Newton D. Baker, appointed by Pres. Wilson, to give advice to the Secretary of War Baker." This sheet carried the caption, "TWO ALABAMA NEGROES HIGHLY HONORED BY PRESIDENT WILSON," and at the bottom was the statement that "A Vote for Cox and Rainey is an Endorsement of Negro Appointments." White Citizens of Endorse Gov. Issue Signed Statements of Relieving Conditions—Sign (Special to The New York Age) Atlanta, Ga.—Declaring that, Governor Hugh M. Dorskey's book, "The Negro in Georgia," was supported by unimpeachable evidence, more than fifty Georgia citizens issued a signed statement. Sunday night in which nine methods of relieving the present situation were advocated. The statement declares that the committee opposes social equality between the race, politicians seeking offices by fanning flames of race prejudice, criminals by their lawless acts bringing condemnation upon Georgia, murder, peonage, night-riding mobs, violation of contracts by laborer or employee, and the propaganda being used to inflame the minds of both whites and blacks with reference to race relations. "Governor Dorsey has placed before us 135 cases of alleged mistreatment of Negroes called to his official attention in the last two years," reads the statement. "Only two of 13 cases have been seriously questioned. The majority of them are confirmed by letters from sheriffs, the Solicitor General, the report of the adjutant general of the state, and by letters from business men and citizens whose standing cannot be justified. That the Negro does not and cannot threaten white supremacy, the committee advocates the following methods of relieving the situation: Education of both races, upholding and protecting the purity of both races, enforcement of contracts and the law, immediate arrest of all persons charged with crime, their protection while being held, a speedy, and trial, and Another Kennamer campaign document carried a strong and vehement denial that "Kennamer or his Committee, or his supporters are in any way favorable to Negroes, participating in the elections of this county. Now Gordon Ashley is candidate for appointment to the position of Collector of Internal Revenue for Alabama, and the colored Republicans of the state are up in arms. It is pointed out that as campaign manager for Kennamer, Ashley was largely responsible for these publications which go further in repudiation of Negro Republicanism than anything Linney of North Carolina ever dreamed of Oliver D.

He is chairman of the county executive committee of Jefferson county and a prominent business man. As a candidate on the Republican ticket for the Board of Revenue in Birmingham county, he received approximately 15,000 votes out of a total of east, while Harding received 7,100 the other Republican candidate approximately 5,000.

The awarding of 250 diplomas and certificates to students who had completed with credit prescribed courses of study in the academic or industrial department on Thursday afternoon, May 20, marked the close of the forthcoming commencement exercises of the Tuskegee Normal and Industrial Institute. The exercises of the week began with a splideid commencement session delivered by Dr. Charles W. Coster pastor of the Galloway Memorial Medical Church of Jackson Mississippi Commencement Day, Thursday May 21, found the campus almost a moving mass of humanity. That this occasion has lost none of its former charm and interest to people in this country was attested. Large groups of students were gathered in the campus at an early morning hour who had come through the courts of every possible means of locomotion. Many had been travelling all night, braving a heavy down-pour of rain and a slight electric storm which was in progress during the latter part of the night and early hours of the morning, rather than to be late to or arriving from the exercises, which to them represented an annual day of interest, instruction and enjoyment. In addition to this crowd, large numbers of colored and white friends came by rail from points far and near. Features of the Exercises. The features of the exercises of the day were the annual alumni affair by Jesse O. Thomas, class of H. field secretory of the Urban League, Whitney, Ga. the annual address to D. P.

Following these members of the faculty and visitors with the members of the gradhating class, bringing up the rear. The line of match was fully a mile in length. The first number following a musical selection by the institute chorus was that phase of a Tinkerbee commencement to which many visitors look forward with much baggage, enthusiasm and interest, namely the industrial exhibition. Few things show more clearly and effectively the practicability of the training afforded by Tinkerbee than does this industrial exhibition which was composed of the actual demonstration departments such as domestic science, carpentry, blacksmithing, shoe-making, electrical wiring, steam heating, auto mechanics and many other activities on the school. Principal Moton Addresses Graduates As in most work of the diplomas were presented in the principal Dr. Moton's presence, seminars in past were followed. It is no easy task to obtain a Tuskegee diploma or certificate. Few educational institutions require as much in order to receive the diploma of the motion as is true of Tuskegee Immun "You think what that your hard time here in school but hey you all doubt you will have a harder time hereafter in the world. The fact that you have measured up to the Tuskegee requirements for graduation will enable you to meet the difficulty of life with courage and determination that in the end will mean victory for you. To try as graduates of Tuskegee Institute, are offered majors in education and leadership. The New York University never before in all of its history, leaders of courage but with this history, leaders of courage with this courage, leaders who also have wisdom men and women of good sense. It needs leaders who have their race and are proud of who are proud of their past and progreat achievements as well as of the future possibilities for progress. It requires and needs men and women who do not lack confidence in other races. It needs men and women who believe in their race and in the white race and who believe in the possibility of a harmonious and helpful adjustment of all difficulties, differences and problems between the race." Alumai Address. One of the features of the exercises was the annual alumni address, by Jesse O. Thomas, of class 191. Among other things, Mr. Thomas said: "Ten years ago on an occasion corresponding to this 103 ambitious forward looking men and women received diplomas indicating that they had received the prescribed course of training and were able to perform some definite task. They had been at Tuskegee from one to seven years and had an opportunity of imbinding much of what has become a classic and international known as the "Booker T. Washington spirit." We are glad to learn from the principals' annual letter and observe since being upon the campus the many improvements that have taken place during our absence. Dr. Moton, some of the members of the 11 class while standing out here at the openjaws of the unwelcome grave, when asked who should succeed the founder of this institution, said you were the map. We pledged our unqualified support to our mission. We would to renew our pledge and support in any way it is needed for the furtherance of this great work. "I have been requested by the members of our class to utter a word of appreciation, love and esteem to that ever decreasing and already too small a number of the old Van Guard among whom are Mrs. B. T. Washington, Mr. J. H. Washington, Mr. Warren Logan and Mr. C. W. Green. As an evidence of our appreciation of what has been done for us by this institution, including all of our teachers, both academic and industrial and as an evidence of our desire to continue its usefulness and of some small share in its support. Dr. Moton I band you herewith in the name of the class of 1911 and by its command the sum of $55." Annual Commencement Address. The annual commencement address which was delivered by Dr. P. James Bryant, pastor of the Wheat Street Baptist Church, Atlanta, Georgia, was enthusiastically received by all and was one of the best heard at the Institute, Dr. Bryant said in part: "Tuskegee Institute is a connecting link between and forms a mediatory basis for operation and co-operation of the North and the South in the substantial development of the Negro. In this institution your trustees hail from the North and from the South. The money with which it is supported comes from the North and the South—Northen white people, southern white people northern black people, southern black people. Surely it is a connecting link between and forms a mediatory basis for cooperation and operation between the North and South in the substantial development of the Negro." tuskegee breaks down the minute wall of partition between the jew and the Gentile in the rescue area and the formation of the weaker brother. For here the gentile and the weaker worker together in brotherly love, each to the interest of the Negro, the younger and weaker brother. Tuskegee brings rich and poor as they meet together and capital and labor hold conference with each other. Three Problems "From the war has come three large problems to the satisfactory solution of which we have set our heads and our hearts, namely international, economic and industrial unrest, and interracial adjustment. It is to this last problem that I wish to call your furrier and most consideration. More and more we are coming to realize that the world is one big 'family' or neighborhood and everyone, white or black is destined to be an asset or liability, a neighbor or an enemy. The human race is one big family in which you are either a big or little brother—a strong oraker member of the family, and God of one blood made all the nations of men for to dwell on the face of the earth together. And now to the graduating class. My first word to you is wherever you are and wherever you go. Whatever you do or undertake, in the spirit of Jesus. Christ take heed to thyself. Take heed to thyself, physically. You appear to be going out of here with strong battles and it looks like you have been doing some work. Keep at it. Atter you go put converse and preserve your health. Do not cater to idleness nor that form our fashion of style that so exposes your bodies that it makes you destroy. Take heed to yourself morally for people are not the same by their looks—but by their character. Take heed to your spiritually aid as you go out set up family altars in your homes. Let your religion be practical wherever you work. Worship regularly in the church of your persuasion. Take heed to yourself economically. Go to work; make money; spend it wisely; save it; buy a home, buy a farm; have something, and be something at home. Some Admonishments One or two admonishments: 'Dread not failure, but rather dread low aim. Second. Love not for yourself, but live for others.' Third. If you have an ambition to be great I have no objection, but seek, greatness upon the foundation of goodness; and along the avenues of unconscious service. Fourth. We not ambitions to make a living, but their seek to make a life. It does not take you to make a life, but it does take a real man and a real woman to build an upstanding character and to make a life. Remember you are not going to be valued by what you know, by how you look nor by how you dress, but you are going to be measured for yourself; by what you are and what you can actually do." : The Commencement Sermon. The commencement sermon which was the opening event was preached by Dr. Charles W. Crisler, pastor of the Galloway Memorial Methodist church, Jackson, Miss. Dr. Crisler selected as his text: "For the kingdom of heaven is as a man traveling into a far country, who called to his servants and delivered unto them his goods. And unto one he gave five talents, to another two, and to another one, so every man according to his ability and straightway took his journey." The text was not treated from a theological view point but rather from the standpoint of every day problems. In the discourse Dr. Crisler pointed out many interesting and instructive facts which were of much value to the students as well as the large number of visitors present. In addressing the graduating class Dr. Crisler said: "You have been trained for leadership, which in the final analysis means, the power of keeping just ahead of those under you and inducing them to follow. Other Exercises of the Week. On Monday evening, May 23rd, at 7:30 o'clock, the Phelps Hall Bible Training School, from which five students were graduated this commencement, completed its twenty-ninth year with appropriate exercises. The annual address was delivered by Dr. D. V. Jemison, pastor of the Tabernacle Baptist church, Selma, Alabama, and president of the Alabama State Baptist convention. The general subject of the evening's program was "preparing for Christian Service." On Tuesday afternoon, May 24th, at 2:30 o'clock, the annual competitive drill of the R. O. T. C. Department took place on the Washington Athletic Field. The first prize was awarded to Company I, commanded by Captain Jas. B. Simmons. A silver loving cup given by Lt. Col. W. H. Walcott was also awarded this company. In the evening occurred the contest which always arouses the greatest interest and 'enthusiasm among the students—the annual Trinity Boston Prize Conest. It took place in the Institute Chapel at 7:30 o'clock and the first prize of $25 was won by Whille Cowen, third year class, whose subject was "Should Immigration be Restricted at this time. The second prize of $15 was won by George W. Henderson, third year class whose subject was "Booker T. Washington, the Apotheke of Industrial Education."

The exercises Thursday concluded the week's observations. A feature of the entire commencement program which deserves special mention was the music rendered by the Institute Choir, under the directorship of Mrs. J. C. Lee. The most difficult selections as well the Negro spirituals were sung with a founess and an interpretation that would be credit to any choir of this order. The Band and Orchestra under the directorship of Capt. F. L. Drive likewise deserves much commendation for the numbers rendered so intently during the week's activities. These organizations have contributed much to the success of the programs. WEST. VA. COLL. INSTITUTE. Institute. W.

But, when it is ready for the day for one week, put to lightness will take it to kink age after it has been straightened. Kink-no-more is the only way that one can hardly believe in their own eye. It works like magic and is unique because there is not another preparation in the world like it. I like that Kink-no-more will not straighten it. King-no-more is a vegetable compound. It is perfectly harshness, and will not be just the great no-hair. It will stop from the way you can be preserved and do not promote a healthier health of healthy hair and keeps it well and glosely. Remember, Kink-no-more is not soکیلفنفورمبونس و گلدسته‌بود، و مهره به شایسته‌بود و نیا‌بنویس‌دادن و نیا‌بنویس‌دادن. For the one on reprice of it, I will send to any one on reprice of it.

W. W. Sanders then talked briefly, complimenting students and officials of the school alike. In his address, Captain Ford called attention to the fact that much depended upon the elementary schools of the state. He said that many of the students were in the work of advancing educational standards, but that only through elementary school efficiency can such institutions as the Morantown University and Collegiate Institute be maintained on an effective basis. Governor Morgan laid particular emphasis on the necessity of both spiritual and intellectual education. No such condition as is brought on through work of the highest type of citizenship can result from intellectual training alone, he said. Both must go together. It was the governor's first official visit to the institution and he expressed himself as being highly pleased with conditions there. He was particularly interested in the many exhibits of the students and viewed with interest the displays of masonry and dressmaking. Responsibility Is Great. Miss Burroughs, the commencement speaker, was introduced by President John W. Davis. She gave an able address. She said that responsibility on teachers, parents and students is increasing and all must respond. "The proper time of a citizen in future years largely depends upon the parents of today," she said. "Education is three-fold," she added, "mental, spiritual and physical. No one can be left undone. "The Negroes of West Virginia must prove their worth. You can be as valuable as any other one group of citizens in the state." She emphasized the necessity of the youth. Negro awakening to the opportunities and hard work to accomplish a noble end for both himself and the state. She charged the graduates to return to their communities and prove their values.

TICAL BLUNDERING There is a quality of political blundering that is equal to a crime. It is a grave question whether the Republican administration which went into office a few months ago, is not making the sort of blunders that will cause many of its supporters to regard them as criminal in their violation of party principles as enunciated during the campaign. Notable among these instances of utter disregard for party pledges was the nomination of a self-confessed Lily-white, Frank A. Linney, for the post of United States District Attorney in North Carolina. So plagiar were the facts in this case, showing Mr. Linney's purpose to cooperate with the Democrats, in eliminating the Negro as a voter in North Carolina that the appointment has been held up in the Senate Judiciary Committee, which refused to report on it favorably. And yet such a nomination was submitted with the tacit approval of the President and Attorney General Danghery. Then we had Secretary Denby of the Navy Department dismissing the grave and specific charges brought by the Haitian commissioner against the United States Marines, engaged in the occupation and subjugation of that hapless republic with the comment, "More rot." without investigation. And yet during the campaign of last fall these charges were deemed sufficiently authentic to engage the attention and sympathy of the Republican presidential candidate. In line with this policy of crushing Liberation and enforcing a peace or the plea for redress of the wrongs committed against a black republic, comes the specious story of a Washington correspondent of a Southern daily, of a plan "to make more respectable the Republican party in the South." According to this correspondent, whose statements are evidently colored by his prejudices and must be taken with more than the proverbial "grain of salt," the plan has the full approval of President Harding, Attorney General Daugherty, Postmaster General Hayes and Representative Stemp of Virginia are also said to be behind the program, which proposes to eliminate the Republican politician "the revenue of patronage only" to the races. The first step in this program is announced as the holding of a convention of one hundred Republicans in Georgia to begin the work of elimination by displacing Hours Linne Johnson at National Committeeman. The list of the movement is conveyed in the following paragraph: While the admin' reten in so many words will not adopt the "white supremacy" slogan to the paragams in the Southern State, recent developments undoubtedly look to the elimination of the Negro position who is Republic in favor of revenue and postage. Of course, in private service is not to be placed on the outstaying of such Dismissal correspondents of Southern newspapers as the one quoted above. But unfortunately the actions of the administration have been of such a word, character as to make such installations seem plausible. Two many Republican Presidents have have been the deletion of winning over the South to the party by surrendering the demand to make such a proposition impossible. Here are a few facts to be learned in mind, considering the fallacy of such prosecution. What voting strength is in the Republican party now possesses in the South is based on Negro voters, who support the party on its past record of advocacy of human rights. Their devotion has withstood much in the way of ingratitude and desertion of those principles, but it is not warranted to withstand much more. But a small number of these adherents seek or expect office. What they want is a square deal politically, the recognition of their rights as citizens, the opportunity to earn a living and justice in the courts. The party that can assure the Negroes of the South these elementary measures of justice can secure their vote at the polls. If the leading white Southerners would recognize the fact and act upon it would ridicule the assumption of Negro domination in politics by scheming newspaper newspapers and politicians. As for building up the Republican to eliminating the Negro and to control and thwart solos to those are not enough com-munities to effect that it has been tried too often to conceal on that question. The South will accept all the honors. Republican President may serve upon it, but it has but a smile at a sweet at his sincerity to give up return. It M: Harding wants to make his administration a success, not only in the South, but North, East, and West, let him recall the policy he outlined in his speech of acceptance when he said: "I believe the Negro citizens of America should be guaranteed the enjoyment of all their rights, that they have earned the full measure of citizenship bestowed, that their sacrifices in blood on the battlefields of the republic have entitled them to all of freedom and opportunity, all of sympathy and that the American spirit ofarness and justice demands." Elimination of the Negro from politics will be the surrest way of denying him the freedom and opportunity that it is acknowledged the race has earned. The full measure of citizenship includes the right to vote and to be voted for, as well as to hold office. To refuse to accord this full measure would be a criminal blunder. ESSENTIALS OF RETAILING With the multiplication of business enterprises among the race, there is need for the progressive store-keeper to give heed to certain essentials in attracting and retaining retail trade. Among the qualities that draw and hold customers, besides furnishing the right kind of goods at the right kind of prices, are courtesy and good service. In order to be able to compete with larger establishments that can purchase from the wholesaler or jobber at lower rates, the smaller retailers should cooperate in their buying so as to obtain lower prices. While customers may be attracted by the novelty of a new store opened by members of the race, they cannot be expected to continue their purchases, if they find they are paying higher prices for goods of an inferior quality. The only way to retain such customers is to give them at least goods of equal quality at prices as low as the other fellow sells them. Courteous attention to customers and the filling of their orders with accuracy and dispatch is a practice that is bound to create good will, that will often overlook deficiencies in variety of stock. The saying that it pays to be polite was never truer than when applied to the relations between salesman and customer. Politeness, good service, fair prices and good goods are the essentials of THE NEW YORK AGE SATURDAY, JUNE 4, 1901. CIVIL RIGHTS CASES IN NEW YORK The last few weeks have seen several decisions in which colored persons in New York have won suits in cases of violation of the Civil Rights Act. Two of these cases have attracted considerable attention. The first was that of a party consisting of a young man who is a graduate of Yale University and three young ladies, one of them a graduate of Brown University, another of the University of Chicago, and the third of a Massachusetts Normal School. The party went into a restaurant which happened to be run by a southern woman. She refused to serve them, telling them they could go into the kitchen and get something to eat if they wanted to. They brought suit and were awarded one hundred dollars apiece. The other case was one which has just been decided by the Court of Appeals. In this case, a young man, a graduate of Cornell University, with his wife, who is the daughter of a late professor in one of the leading Negro universities, and her mother, were refused service in a restaurant when they declined to sit at a table in a rear room. The Court of Appeals affirmed the judgment of the lower courts in which the damages had been awarded the plaintiffs. The New York Civil Rights Bill is a good one and it is one under which action at law can be maintained. Furthermore when a case is one in which race discrimination can be proved, the courts of New York will convict and award damages. In a good many of the northern states the colored citizens are making efforts to have civil rights bills passed which are modelled after the New York bill. They could not select a better model. The decisions in these recent civil rights cases have caused considerable comment in the New York press, some of it pro and some of it con. One of the latter kind appeared in the New York "Times" and was headed "A triumph Likely to be Regretted." The editorial began by saying: "Sensible Negroes and friends of Negroes, instead of rejoicing that part of the black folk have just brought about in this city the firing of the keeper of a teatrroom who refused to serve them, will regretted that this vindication of a legal right has been achieved." The "Times" editorial further expressed the opinion that the insistence of these four people upon a certain right, of theirs "will not change the fact that the white sentiment here is overwhelmingly against the close association of the two races in places of public entertainment," and it closed by saying, "As a general rule, it is well not to go where one is unwelcome, even when the lack of welcome is due to prejudice. To do it only makes the prejudice stronger - teends, if anything, to turn it into a reasonable dislike." It is a strange thing how a newspaper so great as the "Times" can have people on its staff who can write such foolish editorials. Colored people in New York, City do not go into public restaurants to seek association. They go in to get something to eat. Colored people in this city cannot carry Harlem restaurants around with them and if one happens to be in the part of the city which may be ten or twelve miles from Harlem, he cannot be expected to go hungry until he gets back to the colored section. As one of the young ladies in the case first referred to above well put it: "The bringing of law suits against restaurants which foregard the law forbidding discrimination on account of color is a matter of strict necessity, and nothing else. People must eat, no matter what the color of their skin, just as they must be transported from place to place in public conveniences. It is just as essential that Negroes should be served in restaurants as it is that they should travel on the cars." The idea which seems to be in the minds of so many white people that colored people go into a hotel or a restaurant in order to be in the company of white people is proof of the white man's racial egotism. THE LINNEY APPOINTMENT The colored men of North Carolina who are opposing the appointment of Frank A. Linney as United States Attorney for the Western District of that State deserve great credit for the fight they are making. Linney deserves to be defeated and colored citizens in any other state who can bring any pressure to bear on the matter ought to do so. Linney is a southern white Republican and to all appearances he is all that southern white Republicanism indicates. During the Presidential campaign Mr. Linney issued a letter to the women—of course, that means white women—of North Carolina. In this letter he said: "As chairman of the Republican State Executive Committee I cannot further refrain from noticing the efforts on the part of the Democratic leaders in this campaign to mislead you by the pretense that the Republicans of the state are trying to organize the Negro women to the end that they may be voted at the coming election. The Republican party has not made any effort to organize the Negroes in this campaign, men or women, nor will it openly, secretly or otherwise connive at any such political strategy. I pledge to the women of North Carolina that if we carry the state in this election, you will have a strictly white government, honorable and efficient; and I further assure the good women of the state that in the future the Republican Party's policy will be to let the Negro stay out of politics. If the Democratic organization will meet us half way we are in a fair position by agreement between us to eliminate any possibility of the Negro question in this or any subsequent campaign." All of the above and more Mr. Linney said in his letter. Yet, this is the man who is seeking to become the Republican appointee for United States Attorney in the Western District of North Carolina, the state where a great part of the Republican Party is made up of colored voters. The leading colored men of North Carolina at once got upon Linney's trail. They drafted a strong petition to President Harding in which they set forth that a man of Mr. Lipney's sentiments could not be the man to have in his hands the impartial prosecution of the law between white and black citizens. They also pointed out the fact that Linney offered to make a collusion between Republican and Democratic Parties to eliminate the Negro politically. The protest was drawn in strong but dignified language. It was signed by a committee of five: Dr. W. H. Bruce, Dr. A. M. Riyera, Professor D. C. Suggs, Prof. C. H. Moore, Mr. W. H. Hannum, and Bishop G. W. Clinton, who has died since the filing of the protest. Notwithstanding the petition, Mr. Linney was nominated for the place. His nomination was referred to sub-committee consisting of Senators Borah, Hiram Johnson and Overman. The matter of Mr. Linney's attitude upon the Negro was laid before this sub-committee and Senators Burah and Johnson on learning the facts expressed their disapproval. Senator Johnson said he would as soon vote for a yellow dog as to vote for a Republican of Linney's stripe. The nomination would have been definitely North Carolina asked for a reconsideration. It is to be hoped that this man will be defeated in order to serve notice on Republicans of his kind in the southern states. The colored men of North Carolina ought to have the support of colored voters from all over the country. Letters and telegraphs ought to be sent to the members of the sub-committee having the Linney matter in charge protesting against this appointment.

Some of them are so earnest that they go mad, lose all reason, froth at the mouth, have convulsions etc., etc. A marked exception has recently come to our notice. Some weeks ago this writer received a letter from George Bernard Shaw, the great English writer, in which he said: "In reply to your letter of the 11th, I have already protested, not for the first time. In a series of articles recently contributed by me to the Heart Press, I alluded to Negro burning as one of the organized pleasures of America in such terms as drew upon me some abusive letters, partly to say that the photographs to which I alluded were movie scenes from the Los Angeles studios, and partly (rather inconsistently) to express a regret that I was not immediately available for, lynching myself. Hardly any American seems to understand that in a civilized country it is murder to kill any person except by process of law. It seems to be assumed that whoever disapproves of the conduct of a Negro is entitled to constitute himself judge, jury and executioner, and burn the Negro after inviting the countryside to come to the burning as if it were a hunting meet. As the countryside appears to come, and to enjoy itself, Europe concludes that the Apache is produced by climate, not by race." The latter part of this letter was made public in the press and was widely quoted. This is the kind of letter which would be expected to make every single southern newspaper, without exception, rare and rant and pitch and tear, and it did have that effect on quite a number: but one paper, the Columbia (S. C.) "State," was able to look at in a human and rational way. Instead of calling Mr. Shaw names, it said: "Mr. Shaw, who is usually wrong, is eminently right when he observes that in a civilized country it is murder to kill any person except by process of law. He is apparently ignorant of the truth that in a super-civilized country, like the United States there is an aggravated indisposition to kill any person by process of law. Hanging or electrocution after verdict by jury and sentence by a judge, offends the sensibilities of many Americans. An explanation of American lynching may be preference for amateurish to professional methods of punishing." We often think that colored writers would do well to use more frequently than they do the shafts of ridicule and satire against race prejudice. When one argues with a prejudice man it often gives him a greater pride in his prejudice, but we do not believe there is any man who can stand having his prejudice held up to ridicule and laughed at. MOVIES VS. PROTESTANT MINISTERS At a recent Methodist Conference one of the ministers made a striking charge against the moving picture industry. He charged that the moving picture interests were carrying on a direct propaganda against Protestant ministers in order to punish them for having brought about prohibition and to lessen there future influence. He declared that every time a Protestant minister is put on the screen he is niade the object of no end of buffoonery and is always made the goat. He declared that Protestant ministers are always held up to ridicule if not to scorn. He declared further that this is never the case with Catholic priests. Now whether or not the reasons ascribed by the complainant are true, one is nevertheless impressed with the fact that there is something in what he says. It is a very common thing to see Protestant ministers made the butt of ridicule in moving picture shows, and so far as we can remember, we have never seen a Catholic priest subjected to such treatment. This fact does raise a query: Why is it? It may be that the Catholic priest is never made ridiculous because generally speaking, Catholic priests are never regarded in that light by members of then church. Whenever we see a Catholic priest moving among the communicants of his church he is always in a revered position. Is it because this is truer in life of Catholic priests than it is of Protestant ministers? We do not answer the question—we merely ask it. ECCLESIASTICAL POLITICS ECCLESIASTICAL POLITICS the erudite and eloquent editor of the A. M. E. Church Review not long ago resented the fact that "the A. M. E. Church has been cited as the most decadent example of ecclesiastical politics." To show that sweetness and light do not wholly characterize the electionering methods that prevail in other denominations, Dr. Ransom reproduced some of the acrimonious discussion inled in by well known clergyman of the Episcopal Church over the choice of a bishop for the diocese of New York. Another instance that goes to sustain Dr. Ransom's contention that the same levels prevail in church politics, notwithstanding denominational differences, is shown in the revelations brought out by the results of the Easter vestry election of the leading Episcopal Church of the race. The defeat of three of the former vestrymen for reelection on the alleged ground of their opposition to the rector, was followed by charges of deception and personal animus that betrayed a sad lack of Christian harmony. According to reports, circulated among members of the parish in the trouble threatens to culminate in the resignation of the curate, who for the past seventeen years has faithfully assisted in the church work. His friends, who constitute a considerable element in the church, claim that he is being forced out by the rector, so that the latter may appoint his son as his assistant, with a view to the latter succeeding him in the rectorate. On the other hand the supporters of the rector, who polled a substantial majority at the election, claim that decided measures were necessary to curb the bounding ambition of the curate, who was charged with creating a sentiment that the rector had passed the stage of usefulness and thus, the church needed new leadership to develop its institutional activities. So far and this division gone that two distinct factions are said to have formed in the congregation. The one favoring the upholding of the rector and his policies has so far manifested the group's ornaments, that the church's policies. letter received a letter from George Irish writer, in which he said: The 11th.

Writers would do well to use more crafts of ridicule and satire against ones with a prejudice man it often prejudice, but we do not believe and having his prejudice held up to tests. Reasons ascribed by the complainant stressed with the fact that there is a very common thing to see out of ridicule in moving picture remember, we have never seen a treatment. This fact does raise the priest is never made ridiculous noble priests are never regarded in church. Whenever we see a communicants of his church he is it because this is truer in life: Protestants ministers? —we merly ask it. is sufficient to make it a factor to be counted with, in all matters affecting the church. Such factional dissension does not tend to the progress of the church. However, as the learned editor of the Review claimed in discussing the contest for the bishopric, "the opportunity is still ours to show these brethren a more excellent way." The opportunity is still open to the brethren of all religious denominations to show a more excellent way of practicing ecclesiastical politics. A FAMOUS CIRCUS RIDER the death of John F. Robinson, an old-time circus man which was reported, recently from Miami, Fla., recalls the story he told of a colored barehack rider, known as "Negro" Lewis. For seven years Mr. Robinson was a circus performer and owner and he claimed that his show was the first to have a famous Negro barehack rider. His story of how this phenomenon was discovered was told to a writer in the Dearborn Independent as follows: "When I was an officer in the Federal Navy during the Civil War, we were ordered to put a check on the practice of guerrilla firing into our boats on the Mississippi River, by landing and burning plantation buildings." "One day near Island 65, we were fired upon. We stopped, at the next plantation, and set the buildings afire. On our way back to the boats I glanced into a burning cabin and saw a small colored wolf asleep in the fireplace. He had nothing on it but a cotton bag, with a couple of holes cut into it to put his arms through, and one hole for his head. He was probably about three years old. "I didn't want him to be burned so I took him in my arms, and shook him. He followed me all the way to the boat, and aboard it. There was some argument about keeping him; no one seemed to care anything about him. So I said I would take care of him.

Blue Circle Notes Miss Bessie Mawe, Blue Ciclele Nurse at Palatka, Florida, in her report last week to headquarters of The Circle for Negro Relief, Inc., stated that the community health center is near completion. The people of the community, both white and colored, are greatly interested and at present are bending every energy towards being ready for the dedication of the health center by September. Miss Belle Davis, executive secretary of The Circle, urges every friend interested in the progress of The Circle to donate at least one sheet, one set of pillow cases, one bed spread, or towel to Unit No. 02 of Palatka for their health center. The interest this little southern community has shown in the movement for a healthful community needs to be encouraged. Conditions all over the country are such that big things at present seem possible but this effort on the part of a poor southern community is wonderful. They have now put nearly $2,000 into the work besides one-third of the nurse's salary. Miss Lemora Hargrave, Blue Circle Nurse at Fort Valley Georgia, has already made an investigation of the health conditions of the town and county Plans are underway for a Blue Circle Health Center. During the month of April Miss Hargrave made one hundred and seventy-six visits in the county, besides nine visits and health talks in the county schools. Miss Davis is desirous of supplying these two nurses with all the necessary equipment due efficient public health nurses. The great need at present is two nurse's bags. These bags contain all the necessary equipment during the past few days a career interest has been manifested in The Circle by local professional and business people of New York City. The Circle is run on the most economical basis possible with little expenditure for overhead expenses, other than salaries for Miss Davis and her secretary, and these salaries are nothing to boast of. The following persons have shown financial interest in the work during the past two weeks: Mrs. Alice G. Reed, $22,44; Dr. James G. Trimble, $5; Dr. Allen B. Graves, $5; Dr. Godfrey Nurse, $10; B. B. Church, $2; Mrs. Martha Washington, $150; Dr. Murray Aver, $2; Dr. Ernest R. Alexander, $14,048; Nell Woollitt, No. 55, Morrissette $12,444; Goo Tucker, $1; G. Milliner, $1; Mrs. Etta Cottin Paine, $4 It is earnestly hoped that the Circle can provide scholarships for two graduate nurses to enter Columbia University for the courses offered, in public health nursing. Persons interested in such work as The Circle is doing should give it unstinted support.

HEED THESE SUGGEST/ONS, GIRLS! DEAR GIRLS: As usual it was a pleasure to read your nice letters, also those of the new members. Welcome to you all. As everyone seemed to agree on the twenty-five cents tax a month, let us start with June. I am going to send mine this week to the New York Age. As to the club, I appreciate very much being nominated for president, but I did not graduate from high school and I wouldn't want this wonderful column to fail, under any circumstances. "Teddy" your letter made me stand right up. Saturday. Why do you know M. K. is one of my dearest friends? I really didn't expect to see her initials in your letter. Now I suppose you are going to ask M. K. to tell you my name, but she doesn't know that I write to the column. "Bill" I am very glad you have joined our family. If you come to our W. C. A. any Tuesday evening between seven and ninth-thursday you will see me. "May" I would be willing to bet all my money that I know somebody that knows you. If you know anyone in Railway, that settles the whole thing. "Bobbie" aren't your initials. F. R. "Numbers" please tell us all about your first meet with "Happiness" if you have met her. I bet you have the prettiest hands a person would want to see. Did you notice that I didn't say anything about my hands or feet. Large? You ought to see them. I am writing this letter on Decoration day so you know how I am enjoying the holiday. I expect to go to the movies this afternoon to see Charlie Ray. Thursday I saw "East Lynn," and I cried during the time the last part was shown. I couldn't help it because the picture was so sad. Don't call me cry baby. Plainfield is going to have a visitor soon. Beware! Lovingly. "BROWNIE." HOWDY:DO ALL: Will you admit a little Georgian to your ranks? I have been a silent reader for some time, in fact, ever since the column started with just about two letters. Now I am beginning to think that the entire Age will have to be deserved to the letters. What do you think about it? There is no better way of becoming acquainted with each other than exchanging opinions. I think the idea of organizing a club just fine for those who can attend. I am so far away that there isn't a ghost of a chance for me. "Bill" my suggestion about the snaps was great. I am quite anxious to see "Brownie". face. We are planning to organize a tennis club there soon of am a regular tennis "tiemi". "Buddy". I don't think you know what "real heat" is. Were you here today, I could show you the "real unadulterated heat". "Brownie". I have really fallen in love with you through the column. Also "Dumples" for if there is one thing I am crazy over, it is dimples. I think you are real mean to have two on one cheek and I have none on either. "Bert" can't you spare me at least three of your brothers? Tra-la-la until the next time. DEAR GIRLS: May I enter your column? I could not stay out, minute longer, after I read your lovely letters. My name is "Pitt-a-Pat." I have called myself that because I walk fast, I talk fast, and in general do everything fast. "Brownie" and "Smiles." I live in your city. I am also a member of the Y, W, C, A, but not of your club. "Brownie." I used to attend Central High. Am I the only one that wears spectacles? If so, I am afraid that I will have to adopt all of you as my grand children. I've been hesitating for a long time, but I can't do it any longer, the temptation is too great. The Age means more to me than ever before and mother say I'll subscribe for it now or the next five years just to read the "With Our Girls" column, and maybe she's right too. I suppose Ell have to try and describe myself here as best I can. I am very light brown skin, with brown hair and you'll have to set my eyes to judge for yourself, just what color they are, but I call them brown for convenience. "Bill" I know you better than my next door neighbor. You should never have said you were fat or anything about Livingstone College and North Carolina, because right there I had you. "Red," I would love to see you and parles francais aues nues, parquee j'aime heaucape la language francais. "Brownie," if candy melts on ice, help me to figure, out what it would do on a hot stove. I take exams next week so if you don't hear from me, again, you may be sure that they have murdered me. Since this is my first time I guess had better ring off. DEAREST GIRLS: "Brownie," I am so sorry that you have such a time getting your paper. I am right here where it is published an can scarcely wait for it to come from the press. So I know that your suspicion must be terrific Hello "Bill" "May," Tootiea."—everyone of you from Jersey, Goodness. New York must wake up "Bert." it is up to us to get busy—please make some pies and I know that we will "have no trouble going" over the top" with members "Numbers". I am very anxious to meet you because we have one thing in common anyway all—I will whisper it in your heart. I am glad that you think we should meet in New York because we will meet in New York "Atalanta," I certainly did wonder at your silence last week. Please don't do that again because we think you are ill. "Happiness," you and "Brownie No. 2," have reversed letters this week. "Brownie No. 2" is happy and you are not well. slope you are better. "Teddy," "Buddy," "Dimples," "Smiles," "Red," "Blossom," "Jamie" "Blinktum," where are those snap-shots? I simply must have them and since you are so near New York, don't you think our club should be for ed here with "Brownie" as our president, "Red" as secretary, and "Elite" as treasurer. I'll bet you girls could never guess my real vocation. I am a bookkeeper only temporarily. Good by, good by." DEAR GIRLS: Yesterday, I was at a Sunday, School picnic and "oh my," but it was my work to help keep the young children in order. And so I am resting up today, because I want to see the parade Monday which you all know is the 30th of May. I am glad to see so many new members in our circle. "But Melrose" I missed you this week. What is the trouble? "Tooosie," welcome. "Atlanta" it was, warm here. too, I wish I could have joined you at the old "Swimming hole" "Brownie" some day you are going to sample those pies and pass your opinion. "What say? "Happiness" do you miss your paper often? I would be pleased to send you one at any time you tail to get yours "May" dear I also have a gold tooth in the front of my mouth, but I am not skinny by any means. "Buddy" don't I get one of those snaps? "Bill why so many trips to the South?" You make me jealous. This summer I am going to Canada. "Ethel," I join you in your suggestion that we should wear a button for the Circle. Dear me its starting to rain again. So I will close with bushels of love for all the girls from "BERT." New York City. WELL GIRLS: WELL, MIKA! I guess had too much birthday. To tell her I had tried it. I was heat up terribly, just because I was eighteen. That is just why I neglected you last week Shi' girls, if you won't tell I will let out a secret "Atalanta" and "Red," are sisters. Now remember, don't say I told you. Well, Well, Brown! did you get that? "Buddy" thinks that I will make a good treasurer. Well it is nothing strange, for I have had this valuable office to hold several times before, so you see I am well experienced. Yes, sweetheart I have a telephone and my number is Plainfield, LRS. Now I know "Buddy" knows my name, Brownie. I shall expect a telephone call soon, "Tootie". I am delighted to have met you. Say listen, "Atalanta." I could stand your lips stuck fast forever. By-the-way hasn't "Red" come home yet? That's some visit she is making. I think its time she come home and get busy—her phone is ringing. Brownie No. 2! and I will invite me down there to help you make myself "Happiness." I haven't forgotten you, and I get a real good snag! and its gone again. But I am trying hard to hold on to these last ones. Well, look who's here "Ethel" and "Bert" from New York well girls. I thought we never get you, but I see you're here. Oh! "Teddy," you make me feel like a bear. "Melrose," you make me think of something sweet. "Buddy," if I'm not mistaken you were my assistant treasurer last season, weren't you? There are "smiles," that make you happy, oh! "Smiles," I beg your parson, don't forget "Bobbin" "Dimples" and "Bloom." I am glad to know that you are sisters and then sorry, too, for I am only one. I would ask "Bert" to give me one of hers, but I know its useless, so I am stealing "Brownie," "Flite" and "Numbers" you are both so far away from me, way down there in the south. I should suggest for club name "The Unknown Sisters." The reason for this name I don't have to explain. Good bye "BOBBIE." P. S. - The faster you lick it the faster it goes. DEAR GIRLS: As this is "Decoration Day" I suppose everyone is on having a good time. Well, girls. I just had to stay home and rest. Saturday I went on a hike with a group of girls of which I am their leader, and of course you know what a hike means—walking. Well you girls ought to know, because I am resting to-day instead of having a good time "Happiness". I will send you a snapshot of myself, but you will wish you had never asked for it. "Elite" do you know anybody at Allen University? If so please let me know. Welcome to our circle "May" and "Bill". Since everybody agrees to 25 cents a month, I am going to send my quarter beginning with June. We have another promising poet in our circle, that's "Ethel" Keep it up "Brownie" and "Ethel", you will be two of our greatest poetesses. Would like to meet you also "Bill". Would like to visit Ridgewood because I have some folks there—at least Ridgewood and Paramus are their-home towns. Who do you know in Ridgewood. We are having warm weather, and I'm feeling indolent. But regardless of my feelings I can't resist writing the girls. I've just finished reading your interesting letters, "Bill" your suggestion is a capital idea. I think it would be just right for each of us to send our photos to The Age, at an appointed time, and ask the editor to have them put in together. I'm quite sure each of us will become better acquainted with each other and with less trouble. New girls, by the 13th of June our quarter (25 cents) I think the editor deserves credit for helping to patient. My outie sure we will surprise him in the near future. School closes Friday, and I'll be happy for a cat. I'm among the oldest members of our column but the last to give a description of myself. I'll try to be truthful. I'm brown skin, large brown eyes, black hair, very tall with dimples in each check. My browie calls me "Beautiful eyes." "Hrownie No. 2" I'm amused to see or hear from you. Love to all the girls.

Are your mutuals M.S.? Do tell me of I am right. "Brownie" I would dearly love to taste some of your pies. You should have seen my first pig. I wouldn't think of asking you to taste it, even if I had known you at the gone, for it was so hard you could throw it a mile and wouldn't break. I can do better than although I do not have much time for cooking. Since I am in New York City quite often I would diehye love to meet "Bert" and "Ethiel" at appointed time if agreeable to you. Say girl can you answer the riddle. "What is it that walks on four feet in the morning two feet at noon and three feet at night?"

Bayonne, N. J. DEAR GIRLS: You will have to parade this crowd and I for not writing his letter we had a most thrilling experience and it took us quite a while to get it. We went on a motor trip to a nearby city and when coming home in the evening a thunderstorm came up, the lightning playing over the field made a wonderful scene effect but home seemed to enjoy it for an a short time, we became disillusioned. As it crowned this, our car went into a shatter. We stood on tram, coming down sheets, it seemed to age, and Sunday go to meeting clothes. French Lily Easter bonnets and all. We were looking objects when required and brought home. As to questions from our club I think we need a visit to our laws, president, treasurer, staff and a council to aid the president. Suppose we send notes for all officers from the number that have already written make your poll date June 12th. The editor could come and publish the majority of notes. Wishing that you always would have a suitable name for the club. [LAWL] Bradford, Pa Child Welfare Demonstrations Camden, N. L.—Mrs. Harriet White, R.

THE STAGE AND ATHLETICS "Shuffle Along" Latest Musical Evelyn Ellis Scores in Another Gem to Invade Broadway Succes;Starsin'PegO'MyHeart' (By Lester A. Walton) The cleanest and most ambitious colored musical attraction to command the respectful attention of New York theatregoers in recent years is "Shuffle Along," now playing at the third Street Theatre for an indefinite period. The program describes it as "a musical melange conceived by Miller & Lyles: music and lyrics by Sissle & Blake." The four young men are well known in valdeville. Miller & Lyles having worked on the two-a-day circuit for a number of years with much Some weeks ago I had the pleasure of seeing "Shuffle Along" at the Dunbar Theatre, Philadelphia, where it broke all previous records held by the house for attendance. I attended a performance last week at the Sixty-third Street Theatre, for the express purpose of paying particular attention to the manner in which the white patrons received the show. In Philadelphia, after witnessing a performance of "Shuffle Along," I was convinced that the production was one of merit and worthy of scoring a hit on Broadway, but knowing the strange workings of the Caucasian mind at times on matters in which the Negro is directly involved. I was curious to learn if "Shuttle Along" would find its way into the category of what is known, in the language of the performer, a "white folks' show." In theatricals the colored producer and perforer meet with similar obstacles as other ambitious members of the race who aspire to get away from the set and absolute notions of what the average white American thinks of the Negro' got to day. The mage types to usually win favor are of the old mummy and Uncle Joe variety and blackface, comedians. The "dandy darkey," if his grin and stint are perpetual is tolerated. But for goodnessakes, don't represent the Negro as nice-looking young men and women, well dressed and using plain United States language! Then eight out of ten managers, especially if you have a vaudeville turn, will explain that you either ought to get back to plantation stuff or tell you as Indians, Porto Rican or Ullans. So with full knowledge of the Caucasian's psychology on this subject, I saw a recent performance of "Sluffle Along" to observe how the white people in the audience took to Roger Matthew the tenor and Lotte Gee, the popa danna, singing "Love Will Find a Way," the enthusiasm displayed for it. If You haven't Been Vamped by a Brown Skin You haven't Been Vamped at All "Everything Reminds Me of You" and other numbers suspected by me as being regarded either as "numerous more suitable for a white production" or too distinctively special" such as the vamp song. White audiences for some reason do not want colored people to indulge in too much love-making. They will applaud if a colored man secedes, has girl at the wiplow, but if, while telling of his great love in song he becomes somewhat demonstrative and emulates a Romeo—then exceptions are taken. It may be the general impression preyails that Negroes are only slightly acquainted with Dan Cupid; or maybe it is thought they have Bishop, Desmond & Co. in "Turn to the Right" at Lafayette Next Week With one of the most popular companies of the Laiyette Players, appearing in one of the most popular plays, ever presented in New York, namely, "Turn to the Right," layers or good drama are expected to turn out in large numbers at the Laiyette Theatre week of June 9. "Turn to the Right," written by Wm.chell Smith, and John E. Hazzard, ran for two solid years at the Golden Theatre, New York, and was widely recently released for stock. Both the press and public here acclaimed play one of the great heart stories. The story is about three heart stories, who LAW GETS DIAMOND FOR SINGING "MAMMY" Washington, D.C. "Mammys" written some years ago by Will Martine Cook and Lester. A Waltons is attached the heart of a white woman when she heard it rendered by Lorenzo Cook, that she gave the lad a diamond. The Washington state on its front page relates the incident as follows: "After master Lorenzo Cook, a colored boy, had finished singing "Mammys" by special request, at the Convention for Amity Between the White and Colored Races, last night, and the session had adjourned, a young white woman walked up to a group centered around the young Were. lations colored musical attraction to tion of New York theatregoers in a," now playing at the Gold Street field. was "a musical melange conceived by series by Sissie & Blake." The four in valdeville, Muller & Lyles having at for a number of years with much no business being ardent lover's. The musical numbers in "Shuffle Along" are original tuneful and worthy of a place in a Broadway musical show. If "Love Will Find a Way" were featured in a white production it would be proclaimed one of the season's hits. "Honey-suckle Time," "Landlana Days" and "Shuffle Along" are among the haunting melodies. Lotte Gee, in good voice plus pretty costumes, appears to better advantage than at any time during her stage career, and is where she really belongs in musical comedy. Roger Matthew is a temper of promise and already is attracting favorable attention. Gertrude Saunders gets plenty of applause, as usual. She is always sure fire. For the first time white theatregoers of New York are having such numbers "I'm Craving for That Kind of Love" and "Daddy" as they really There are more than the usual number of comedians under cork in one show with Miller & Lyle as the chief inn makers. They have supplied themselves with some very amusing situations and witty dialogue, appearing at their best in the grocery store and Mayor's office series.

THE NEW YORK AGE, SATURDAY, JUNE 4, 1921. Miss Evelyn Ellis has developed into a versatile actress and her work in recent months has been such as to establish herself as one of the most prominent and popular members of the Lafayette Players. When last seen at the Lafayette Theatre she was seen as a Chinese maiden in "The Love of Su Shong," which has made a favorable impression. This week Miss Ellis has returned in another strong play, "Peg O' My Heart" and as an Irish heroine, using a delightful Celtic brogue and wearing a red wig she is attracting as much attention and winning as much commendation as when she appeared as Su Shong if not more. "Peg O' My Heart" a comedy drama in prologue and three acts, enjoyed a long run on Broadway. It is being seen in Harlem for the first time, and the performance given is a creditable both as to the acting and attention given to stage settings. Miss Elfs supporting cast includes such favorites as Arthur Simmons, Inez Chough, Ethel Pope, Ruth Carl, Walter Robinson, A. B. DeComethiere, J. Francis Mifes and Harry Plater. WHITE MAN'R TAMPERS WITH COLORED PLAYERS Reports are in circulation that a certain white theatrical manager of Chicago has unsuccessful working in the East who are making meetings to members of the Lafayette Players to break their contracts in the Quality Amusement Corporation and go to Chicago. When questioned regarding these rumors B. C. Brown, head of the Quality Amusement Corporation, stated he did not take them seriously, so the treatment, financial or otherwise, members of the Lafayette Players are receiving at the hands of the corporation is better than at any time of the dramatic organization's history. Farinmore, Mr. Brown does not believe any of his performers would be so indiscreet as to take such an unwise step thereby inviting the hostility and criticism of the public heays. INTEREST IN TOUR OF LAFAYETTE PLAYERS Arrangement are being persecuted for the tour of the Lafayette Players which will begin sometime in July and will include many of the principal cities in the country not included in the Quality Circuit. The strong company to be sent out will include many of the prominent members of the Lafayette Players, "Within the Law" and the "Silent Witness" in all probabilities will be the two shows which the company will present. Communications have been received by the Quality Amusement Corporation from many cities asking that they be included in the intinerary. LAFAYETTE CO. DRAWS BIG CROWDS AT NORFOLK Norfolk, Ga.

Newport News, and a report is in circulation that Ricmond is soon to be included on the Quality Circuit. SAM McVEY IL A PARLE FRENCH TO CARPENTIER One of the most interested spectators at Manhasset last week, according to a sports writer in the New York Herald, was Sam McVey, the huge Negro heavyweight, who taught Carpenter several things about boxing when the Frenchman was a featherweight. McVey, who now weighs 217 pounds, was in Paris for many years and had many great fights there. One of these was with Joe Jeannette, April 17, 1999, the battle lasting forty-nine rounds. Jeannette being the winner, Jeannette is to join the Carpenter camp in a few days, and McVey has also offered his services to the Frenchman. "McVey talks French fluently, and he and the champion chatted as the workmen," said Carpenter, as he delivered a one-punch on the bag, and then looked to see the effect on McVey. "Very good" grinned McVey. "That is the one I showed you." McVey expressed the opinion that Carpentier would make a scientific fight of his bout with Dempsey, and box at long range "it would be foolish to mills with a man who has so great an advantage in weight". McVey was asked why he did not get a match with Harry Wills, and said he could if he would permit Wills to fight go as you please rules. "He wants to hang on with one hand and hit with the other. That is the only way he will fight." McVey then told of one of Carpentier's first bouts in Paris, which was with a boxer named Gloria. Carpentiers won in seven rounds and received about 51 for his victory. "Georges will get a few more dollars than that when he meets Dempsey, July 2" chunked McVey.

AT LINCOLN THEATRE Long, after the last scene of "The Faith Healer" had faded out at the Lincoln Theatre on Thursday, the captivating and impressive story the picture provides, lingered in the memory of spectators. Those who saw "The Miracle Main" compared it with that famous production, and the comparison was deserved. "The Faith Healer" is a powerful picture drama and deals with a shepherd who answers the divine call and goes forth to heal the sick. He falls in love and it is this passion upon which the action revolves. Milton Sills gave an artistic performance of Michaels, the shepherd, while Ann Forrest, the girl gave a delightful interpretation of a difficult role. The support generally by Fontaine La Rue, Frederick Vroom, Loyola O'Connor, May Gitarri and Ardokh Menjou, was quite satisfactory. The picture is based on the late William Vaughn (Moody) play and the scenario was written by Mrs. Moody, the widow, in collaboration with Z. Wall Coxington.

"DEACON" JOHNSON IN LAW COURTS, FIGHTS BACK WHEN HIT! Special Personal Interview. (continued From Last Week) "Dear sir, there are two particular facts about your connection with The Clet Club which the public should be enlightened on. First, where were you just before and at the time you took the position as president and manager of The Clet Club and what prospects had you then of making money? The second is, did you seek the position as head of The Clet Club, or were you sought? I think it would be well for you and for The Clet Club, to have these matters cleared up." "All right, suppose I tell you all the facts in both cases. Which do you want to know about first? "Where had you been employed as an entertainer, before going to The Clet Club? I mean at what real big place or places high you been employed as an entertainer before you accepted the position as President of The Clet?" "Well, I tell you I have entertained at a great many big places. So many it would not public the public to name them. This I think is the most interesting fact I have to relate. In 1911 I went (with the Deacon Johnson Quartet) to the Bellevue-Straford, in Philadelphia, for a three weeks tryout, and stayed there three years. How was that?" "Great," I said. "The Bellevue-Straford-Want out of a place that?" I asked. Is it the largest and finest hotel in the world. Have you never heard about the Bellevue-Straford?" "No! I don't think I have. You see, I am not a man of big money, and I was not a doubt I could find comfortable quarters at The Bellevue-Straford." "Oh! see the quarters would be comfortable all right!" said the *Deacon*. "But I can't say whether or not you would be all together most comfortable in the big, rich and most commodious 'Bellevue-Straford' but we will not talk about that. This we will in. That great, big, rich hotel, people from all parts of the world are guests. Night and day, *Deacon Johnson's* Quartet was all the craze and the *Deacon and Bear* song was the favorite. Money—I tell you, we just coined the money in *The Rellevue-Straford* Everybody gave us money. From there, at the end of the season, in the summer of 1914, I was booked to take the *Deacon Johnson Quartet* to *The White Mountains*. There was big money, too. Why did I not go to the White mountains? Oh! now comes the interesting story. "At that time The Chel Club was in pretty bad condition. Money was short and no one was anxious for the position of president and manager. Some of the most prominent members appealed to me and asked me to consider the matter of taking hold of The Chel Club. I did so and finally decided to accept the job of president and manager. I say 'the job' because there was much work to be done at The Chel in the summer of 1914, to keep the doors open. I gave the White Mountain's paying job to a Chel member and agreed to take hold and see what I could do. We all loved the founder and first president of The Chel, James Reese Europe, and we wanted to keep The Chel going." To prove the point of the real condition of affairs, "The Deacon" handed me a tapewritten letter from the agent of the building in which The Chel was then housed, demanding back rent and present rent and in not any too easy issues. July 10, 1914, the agent wrote the following letter to The Chel Club: "We have been waiting payment for N. G. check of $100, given for the June rent, as well as a payment on account for the July rent, which has been due now sixteen days. We must hear from you at one, in accordance with conversation our representative had both you the other day." This letter was followed by other sharp demands with threats to put The Clerk Club into the street, if the rent was not paid by a certain denomination "Dracon" Johnson went to the aid of The Clerk with cash money and saved the situation. From that time on for four years, "The Dracon" was just the right man in the right place. But prosperity always brings its sorrows as well as its joys. Joys for The Clerk Club, when bills could be met and paid on time, but sorrows were brought to "The Dracon". Trouble began and the fate, as president and manager of The Clerk Club, of "Dracon" Johnson was saved. Into the law courts was hurled "Deacon," the jazz blues rageine singer, dancer and extraordinaire entertainer. And "The Deacon" is not yet out of all troubles and sorrow. Here it was I asked "Deacon": "Who started the fight in the law courts?" and the "Deacon" replied well the fight was pushed on me and I had "to fight back."

Goodbye'" GOURDIN & SHELLBURNE WIN INTER-COLL CHAMPS At the intercollegiate championship meet of America held at the Harvard Stadium, Cambridge, Mass. on Saturday, May 28th, two colored athletes became champions. E. O. Gourdin easily won the broad jump for the Crismon team although he did not succeed in running the world's record in that event, as some had expected. Gourdin jumped 23 feet, 10 3-4 inches, and was largely responsible for his team winning second place in the meet. J. A. Sheilurne, the all-round athlete of Dartmouth College, was winner of the shot put for his team, which succeeded in winning third place in the meet. Sheilurne made a record throw, of 45 feet 3 1/2 inches. No other colored athlete succeeded in winning a place in the big meet. The University of California won the meet by one half point with Hatsard second and Dartmouth third. TO ERASE COLOR LINE AFTER BOUT, JULY 2. Atlantic City, N. J.-Jack Kearns, manager of Jack-Dempsey, today ob- literated the color line Kearns said that if the champion defeats George Carpenter on July 2 the next opponent of Dempsey will be the man who is worthy a title bout. Dempsey considers the European champion the only logical contender at present for the crown. If the American public demands that he meet Kid Norfolk or any other Negro and the promoter is found who will guar- antee the sum necessary to promote such a match he will be ready to erase the color line.

Perhaps, it is because the colored women have more children of their own. It may be, though, that it is only because the hospital does not know how to find the colored homes. That is why this article is written.

From this he made a practical application to our own people, saying that just as Jesus was loyal to His country despite its treatment of Him, so we should rise above ill-treatment and continue our unbroken record of national loyalty. At the evening hour he took up the life of John Brown, whom he called the greatest American. This reformer, pastor and Christian was the most diligence and humility of the most dramatic career of any American. He was the soul of America, and is still marching on. The stand of Governor Dorsey in Georgia is the reappearance of the spirit of the great American, Harper's Ferry was a new edition of Calvary. In the afternoon Dr. Precior delivered an address to a large audience assembled at Borough Hall in front of the monument of Henry Ward Beecher, whose services to the cause of freedom he highly praised. He told of how he turned his pulpit into a forum for liberty on the other side of the water turned the English sentiment in our favor. In his work of reconstruction he held that the black man should have a square deal, and in that regard was the forerunner of Theodore Roosevelt. Mr. and Mrs. John Ross, of New Haven, guests of Mr. and Mrs. S. T. Brooks, 331 Clifton Place, were among the visitors at Nazarene Church Sunday morning.
