Y. — The people of Rochelle made generous response to the appeal of Dr. C. P. McLedon and I. Davis on the evening of January 10th, when they assembled at League Hall, 24 Brook and heard an address by Fred R. Anderson of Tue New York Area, of the Katy Ferguson-Soil Truth Homes, 162 and 170 West Street, New York, refugees for graduate girls of the race. A star concert was rendered by artists, including Haywood and Miss Martie Holmes of Water, Miss Sadie Harmini and Bridges of Mount Vernon, and John Barker Louis Rock and Miss Shepherd of New Rochelle. Made of the various fraternal orders present and made presentation on behalf of the organization, presents for the Homes amounted to the sum of $200.51.

As no reply had been received up to Monday of this week, the lodge officials called on the attorneys, and the lawyers in turn called up the Columbia Trust Co., inquiring as to reason for delay in replying to their request. Mr. Howell informs Turt Ack that it was at this time that Capt. Baker voiced the bank's attitude toward Negro depositors. It is reported that Mr. Austin was told over the phone by Capt.

The notice action taken by the board of directors was told of and the reason as supposed to be given was that the present depositors of the bank would be offered if they were thrown in contact with a stream of Negroes coming in and out of the bank. Of course, the Imperial folks will have to find some other banking connection, but there is a great puzzle in their minds as to the true reason for the position taken by the officials of the Columbia Trust Co. U. S. HOLDS GARVEY UN CHARGE UR FNAUD A complaint sworn to by Oliver B. Williamson, who described himself as a post office inspector, caused the arrest of Marcus Garvey, organizer of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, and manager of the Black Star League, to be used in transportation and freight traffic between the United States and African ports, agents of the Department of Justice taking him into custody on Thursday, January 12th, at his apartment, 129 West 100th street. Mr. Garvey is charged with having used the maids in a scheme to defraud, through the selling of stock and membership in false and fraudulent propositions, and, also for the selling of passages to Africa on a mystical vessel. The prisoner was arranged before United States Commissioner Hutchoke in the Federal Building and released on bail of $2,500. Assistant United States District Attorney Joyce is in charge of the case not the government. It has not been made public as to who Mr. Garrley's lawyers will be.

Miller and Francis J. Buckley, of the New York City police force, was set for Monday, January 23rd, following his arraignment before Justice Wasservogel in the Supreme Court on Friday, January 13th. Judge Morris Koenig, formerly of the General Sessions Court, and Herman Hoffman of 233 Broadway are counsel for Boddy, assigned by the court. Judge Koenig made strenuous objection to efforts of District Attorney Banton to have the trial set for an earlier date. Declaring that such an early trial as the state desired would preclude the possibility of a proper and adequate defense, Judge Koenig told the Court that he did not object to a "speedy trial," but that such a trial meant to him a trial "compatible with the dignity of the State and the rights of the defendant." the manner in which it was obtained.

He certainly did not intend, declared Judge Boeing, to take the investigators and process servers whole extent, would probably move them to hamper his work. J.

Two months ago he signed on the $5,000 bail of a member of the case who was now later, disappeared. It is thought that he feared the loss of this money would have meant his financial ruin, which caused him to worry so that his mind was temporarily unbalanced. Counsel for Boddy reserved the right to ask an adjournment of the trial on January 23rd. Siniater Methods Employed Further developments in the case, following that bringing of Boddy back to New York for trial on charges of having killed Detectives Miller and Buckley, indicate that when the case comes up for trial the evidence will be surprising. It is asserted that the alleged statement reputed to have been signed by Boddy aizer his arrest in Philadelphia by the colored magistrate, Ames Scott, will be discounted by evidence showing on Commits By Inhaling Gas To Worry Over Financial Wife Is Absent From Church Sunday Morning queerly for several days, but never dreamed he would take the step he did.

In last weeks AGE an appeal was made for financial assistance to be given Mrs. Annesta Johnson of 161 West 140th street, whose husband, Charles Johnson, was shot and killed on the night of Thursday, January 5, leaving her with six children to care for, the eldest being a boy of seventeen, the youngest a boy just three years of age. Three girls are 14, 11 and 6 respectively, and another boy is five. The response was immediate. The case had a particularly appealing quality, in that Charles Johnson died a martyr, to his devotion to duty, his death resulting from a bullet wound inflicted by a they who had waylaid Johnson's employer, Jacob Belkin. Belkin it appears, is a real estate operator, but his present where abouts seem to be a mystery. Efforts to locate him apparently have been futile. It is certain, however, that on the night of the fifth of January, Belkin was at 161 West 140th street, the apartment house of which Johnson was the janitor, in the basement of which he with his wife and six children, had living quarters. It appears that a Mrs. Williams, colo- oced, said to live on 129th street, near aske- 5th avenue, has been employed by Bel- kin and his associates to collect rents aye- from several 140th street apartment houses. An office was maintained on the first floor of 161, and here it was Bel- kin's custom to meet Mrs. Williams and have her turn over to him the money kin- sile had collected. On this occasion the rentals amounted to about $800, it is but said. When Belkin was leaving to go em- home, it is said, he called Johnson and Col.

Charles Young Died At His Post, Monrovia, Liberia Third Colored Graduate From West Point and Only One Who Attained Rank of Colonel—Military Attache in Liberia Since 1912—Home in Ohio (Special to The New York Age) Washington, D. C.—A cablegram received at the War Department on Thursday, January 12th, announced the death of Colonel Charles Young, military attache at Monrovia, Liberia, West Coast of Africa. There were no details as to exact time of death nor of the cause. Colonel Young was this highest ranking Negro officer in the United States army, and his home in this country was at Xenia, Ohio. Mrs. Young is in the United States at the present time. Colonel Young was born in Kentucky in 1808 and was educated in the public schools of Ohio. In 1885 he was appointed to West Point and was the third Negro to go through the academy and remain in the army after he was graduated. He stood well in his class when he received his commission in 1889. He was assigned to the 10th Cavalry for several years and in the Spanish war was a major in an Ohio Negro battalion. After the war he was superintendent of the Sequoia, and Grant national parks in California. In 1904 he was sent to Haiti and later to the Philippines. He attained the rank of major in 1912 and was sent as military attaché to Liberia. Then he was later promoted to the rank of colonel. COL. YOUNG AND THE "19TH." Following announcement of Colonel Young's death, the New York Sun carried an intericting story concerning the officer's connection with the famous 10th Cavalry, of which he was at one time lieutenant colonel. The article was headed "Black Tenth" Crack E. S. Cavalry—Death of Colonel Young Recalls String History of Negro Regiment. It reads as follows: Callant memories of the "Black Tenth" are stirred by the news that its former lieutenant commander, Colonel Charles Young, the only Negro who ever reached the rank of Colonel in the United States Army, has died or succumbed.

New Yorkers who saw the Blanding Tenth jingle up Fifth avenue after the return from hard service in the Philippines will never forget the stewardship and admiration showed by the city crowds, who were carried on the matchless skis and canoes. of those first class fighting men, in late years, when a detachment or a regiment white hunting for Villa in Austria was ambushed at Parral by an encumbering Mexican force, it was captured Young, then Major, who commissured the squad that Preshing disbanded to their relief. Preshing himself had fought Redskins in a lieutenant of the Black Terrain, and also every other white officer that ever arrived with it. He holds the regiment in popular affection and admiration. Its apparently ardently traditions have been reenacting for fifty-six years. Its history has been written in a book. Its bravery have been rung. Its qualities have been praised to the skies by European military observers. ` Like Numfidian Horse. "They grew to be to our army what the numidian horse was to the Roman legions," wrote Major Frank Keck, formerly of the Seventy-first Regiment, N. G. N. Y., when the Black Tenth celebrated its fiftieth anniversary in 1916. "Their life in the long reaches of the Western country developed courage, initiative and pride. Hunger, thirst exposure, sudden skirmishes with foes fighting from ambush, made the troopers of the Tenth not only first class fighting, men individually, but shaped them into a military machine. "From post to post the Tenth was transferred through the great Western country. The Sioux, the Cheyenne and the Apache fled before their intrepid charges. One of the treasured possessions of the officers' mess is a spirited picture by Frederic Remington showing Lieutenant Powhatan Clarke rescuing a kolked trooper from the Apache on Lebo's Height, Santa Barbara Range, in the province of Sonom, Mexico. "It is a fine tradition of this regiment which shows itself in the devotion of officers to men, of men to officers. There is no color line in the trade of war. Brothers could not live together in greater affection then do the men of the Tenth, whether he be in the ranks, non-commissioned officers or hold high commands. "All the need for fighting grew less the Tenth took on more of the function of mounted police, and yet, such was the pride of tradition, war service. The ideal always upgrasmed the mind of every officer. Member of the original recruits remained as long as the government would let them, for they hated to retire. So it was that the Tenth in peace had in reserve its deadly efficiency, and it went into the Spanish war with veteran officers and many a grizzled guarder who was himself a tower of strength." Heroes of San Juan Hill. "The achievements of the Tenth were the admiration of the foreign military observers who accompanied our expedition to Cuba, and they were impartial businesses. They did not hesitate to assist their belief that the dismounted mounted troopers were the very backbone of the American attack. Certain it was that the Tenth got the Rough Riders out of a very bad hole at Las Guasinas. Their timely arrival averted a greater disaster to the Rough Riders in the first land engagement near Santiago. "The charge of the Tenth up the steep and tangled slope of San Juan Hill will always have a place in the military boot from firing on their comrades in the distance, for the Tenth was used to wars of the ambushade. "The in thick of the fighting at Santiago a trooper of the Tenth was seen bleeding from a large wound in the thigh. He was told to go to the rear, as his attention was called to his injury." "Oh, dat's all right. Cap'n he replied, 'dat's been dar dis lawing time.' And that's the spirit that has made the Black Tenth what it is. "OPEN DOOR" PAGEANT TO BE GIVEN IN NEWARK It will be of interest to many who were disappointed in not being able to get into Carnegie Hall last November when "THE OPEN DOOR" pageant was presented there for the benefit of Atlanta University, to hear that "THE OPEN DOOR" is to be repeated in Newark, at Krueger's Auditorium, on Thursday, January 26th, at 8 p.m. This is the pageant that shows the history of the Negro race, and that so beautifully, by symbolic dance, tableau, painting of the spirituals and plantation societies, takes, the Negro from the dark days in Africa, through slavery and oppression, to the present, when with education, the door is open to larger opportunities.

Chisholm) Boston, Mass.—On his first visit to Boston for many months, Dr. Robert R. Moton of Tuskegee Institute discussed "National Aspects of the Negro Question" at Trinity Church Sunday afternoon, January 8th, at four o'clock. The frequency of lynchings in the South, which Principal Moton regards as one of the most serious phases of American life, was outlined from the statistics and information gathered annually at the Institute. He also spoke of the work of the Commission on Inter-racial Relations and said that a radical change is taking place throughout the South in favor of better school facilities for Negroes, better equipment on railroads for Negroes, and a firm determination to stamp out mob violence. "This change of sentiment within a few years," said Dr. Moton, "can scarcely be appreciated by those who live in other sections; but those of us who live there, both black and white, are the final step in securing the calm, dispassionate consideration of all matters affecting the races, the results of which will be seen in everything that affects the commun welfare. ration of which the race is today making an annual contribution of $1,500,000. Progress a Proud Record. "The facts of the Negro's progress in industry, education and citizenship constitute a record of which any group of our citizens might be well be proud; and there is evidence that this record is gaining for the Negro increasing recognition for his value as an asset in our National development. The South is not slow to concede the part which the Negro plays in its economic life, and in improving attention is being paid to his Lynching Te Go in Ten Years. Will W. Alexander, executive secretary of the Commission on Inter-Racial Relations, with headquarters in Atlanta, Ga., also spoke and seconded all Dr. Moton said regarding this change of sentiment in the South. Dr. Alexander is one of the white members of the Commission which comprises committees of whites and Negroes in 800 counties of the South who meet in an effort to form a unified voice in question: "Lynching will be eradicated in ten years; it will pass out like the New England witchcraft obsession," said Dr. Alexander. Sunky evening Dr. Motton and Dr. Alexander addressed a very large audience of concerned people in the People's Baptist Church. The speakers were introduced by Dr. David S. Klugh, pastor of the church, who spoke of the warm friendship that had existed between himself and the late principal of Tuskegee Institute. Because of this, Dr. Klugh most warmly welcomed Tuskegee's present principal to his church and his pulpit and said that he esteemed him as one of the most useful and resourceful present-day leaders of the Negro race. Pleada for Race: Pride. In his discourse at the People's Baptist Church, Dr. Moton said that he is endeavoring to maintain at Tuskegee the notably tall standards set by Tuskegee's founder and late principal. He felt that all of Mr. Washington's friends would be proud of the financial condition of the school, the appearance of the grounds and buildings, the earnestness of students and teachers alike, and the fine Tuskegee spirit which pervades the whole Institute—the spirit of Booker T. Washington, himself. Principal Moton urged his colored audience to cultivate race pride and race consciousness. He said that we should teach our children that they are endowed by God with the same talents, gifts, and possibilities for achievement possessed by all races and that all we ask and insist upon is an absolute equal chance with all other Americans for growth and development in all directions. Dr Alexander said that he represented the group of Southern white people who have come to believe that no man, however jivy, or righteous or well-meaning, has any right to govern or make laws and to impose the laws of people having an interest in the making those laws and in the naming of the men who are to govern them. Monday afternoon, 4:30 o'clock, Principal Moton spoke at the Copley-Plaaza Hotel at a meeting primarily in the interest of the Robert Gould Shaw House, a Settlement House in the South End in Boston. At this meeting Principal Moton discussed particularly conditions of the North as they affect colored people, and made an earnest plea for equal opportunities for Negroes in the North to earn as well as to spend a dollar. Shortly after Principal Moton had spoken, Miss Maria Baldwin, the noted colored woman principal of the Agassiz School of Cambridge, Mass., suddenly solled while speaking and in a few minutes expired. At both the Trinity Church meeting and the Copley-Plaaza meeting, Dr. Alexander Mann, rector of Trinity Church and a trustee of Tuskegee Institute, presided and introduced the speakers. At Trinity Church meeting, Principal Moton spoke in part as follows: Motton spoke in part as follows: "I have no apologies to offer either for the presence or for the record of the Negroes of America throughout their stay in this country. In industry, it is a record of hard work and thrift. Today more than 70 per cent. of the Negro race over ten years of age is engaged in gainful occupations; 75 per cent. of all the women of the race are wage earners, a record which is true of no other class of women in America. Starting with practically nothing, the Negro race owns 600,000 or 25 per cent. of all the homes occupied by the race. Negroes own more than 20,000,000 acres of land and the total wealth of the race is estimated at approximately one billion dollars. Shaw House Meeting Trinity Church Address. ration of which the rice is today making an annual contribution of $1,500,000. Progress a Proud Record. "The facts of the Negro's progress in industry, education and citizenship constitute a record of which any group of our citizens might be well be proud; and there is evidence that this record is gaining for the Negro increasing recognition for his value as an asset in our National development. The South is not slow to concede the part which the Negro plays in its economic life, and increasing attention is being paid to his welfare and safety as much as to his skill and capacity as an industrial worker. There is practically no opposition to Negro education in the South today. Not as much money is spent for the education of the Negro as for the education of the whites. The school terms do not last as long and the teachers are not paid the same salaries as is true of the whites. Nevertheless, there are positive and constructive efforts made in every Southern state toward a larger program and better facilities for Negro education. Even the railroads, in many instances, are providing better equipment and more considerate treatment for Negro passengers, all of which indicate a change of sentiment on a scale that was not expected even ten years ago. "The Commission on Inter-Racial Relations is largely responsible for this changed sentiment. This Commission represents a determined effort on the part of Christian white men and women throughout the South to express in concrete deeds the conviction of their hearts that justice and righteousness are not to be qualified by consideration of race or color or even sex. "This Commission has been most outspoken in its condemnation of mob law and vary direct in its action, and as a consequence it may be justly said that a radical change has taken place throughout the South in the public opinion on the lynching evil. This change of sentiment within a few years marks a significant achievement for the conscience and courage of the leaders of public life in the South. Its effects can scarcely be appreciated by those who live in other sections; but those of us who live there, both black and white, regard it as the final step in securing the calm, dispassionate consideration of all matters affecting the two races, the results of which will be seen in everything that affects the common welfare." EX-SERVICE MEN CALLED BY N. Y. LEGION HEAD William F. Deegan, commander of the American Legion, Department of New York, has given out a message to the colored ex-service men of Harlem, urging that they affiliate with the William Lloyd Garrison Post of the American Legion, and expressing a desire that this Post will become the largest colored Legion Post in the world. Nate Commissioner Deegan's message is as follows: "The American Legion wants and needs every colored ex-service man in Harlem in the William Lloyd Garrison Post of the Legion. The Legion stands in this state for absolute obedience to law and order and we will oppose to our untimely any attempt to bring into existence societies or organizations which would break down the bars of friendship and fellowship established among us all during our service for our country. In our work for the wounded and disabled, for the economically disabled, the mash out of work or with a family and needing help, we draw no lines as to race or color, or as to nationality before the war. We are all ex-service men who proved our love for our country and we are going to keep on fighting in the American Legion to make our country a better place for us all. "Let every colored ex-service man who does not belong to the Garrison Post of the Legion get in touch with William H. Cooper, 156 W. 131st street, and find out what the Legion really is. This is my heartfelt wish—that Harlem will soon boost the largest colored Legion post in the world." The Post meets on first and third Sundays of each month, at 7 p.m., at 56 West 130th street, 15th Regiment headquarters. NATURAL HAIR WIGS SWITCHES, TRANSFORMATIONS.

Johnson's Widow (Continued from first page.) as a flash he ran back to give what assistance he owed; but, he was stopped my three, ballers from guests in hands of the highwaymen. One baller pierced, his heart, one went through his right shoulder, and another entered just above the chin and ranged upward through the brain. Johnson was dead almost intimately... In the moment, Mrs. Johnson was at home going about her household duties as usual. After her husband had been gone some thirty minutes there arose a need for his assistance and Mrs. Johnson made an effort to find out if he had returned. But the elevator operator nor any of the other folks around 163 had seen the janitor since he left with Belkin in response to the latter's request. As she was returning to her basement apartment one of her small daughters reported hearing what she thought was daddy's footsteps in the rear area. This, of course, proved not to be the case. Another Janitor Hired After investigating this call, Mrs. Johnson was again returning to the basement, when one of the tenants called her, asking that she come to his apartment. Mrs. Johnson declare that a promotion seized her, and she became certain that something had happened to her husband. He was dead and she never saw him in life again. And now in addition to the care of six small children, only two of whom are old enough to assist in taking care of the home! Mrs. Johnson is faced with the immediate contingency of losing her present home. It appears that she has already lost the possibility of succeeding. Following his death of his late husband, following his death of his older child, a boy of 17, and male relatives of her husband who were willing to assist her in every way possible, to take care of the janitorial work. The work was well looked after by her in this manner, until Saturday, January 14th. On this day, without having received any, previous notice, Mrs. Johnson was surprised to find a man in the building who said he was the new janitor and would take care of the work from that time. He has been doing the work every since. In the meantime, no word has come from Belkin nor has Mrs. Johnson been able to reach him, either by telephone or by personal visits. A Similar Proposal. However, there was one rather sinister occurrence. Before the body of the dead man was buried, four white men who allege that they were associated with Belkin in the real estate business called on Mrs. Johnson. They assured her of their sympathy and as an earnest of this feeling they tendered her $50, reputed to be from the agent, as a contribution toward funeral expenses at the same time asking her to sign certain papers. Mrs. Johnson states that she told the man she needed all the help possible, but that $50 from the man for whom her husband had sacrificed his life seemed a rather small return, and at any rate she could not transact any business until after her dead husband was buried; Needless to say, the men did not leave the $50 with her. Others Are New Active In response to the appeal printed in last week's Ack. and to personal telephone appeals made by the publisher, Fred R. Moore, to pastors of various city congregations, several sume have been received and turned over to Mrs. Johnson by THE Ack. Since the appeal was made by THE Ack, directing attention to the needs of this woman widowed in a moment by the act of a band of robbers, it appears that other agencies are interesting themselves in her behalf. One proposition is that whatever sum is raised is go be held in trust by some committee or other, and dolled out to the poor woman according as the committee sees fit. Officially, this paper knows nothing of this proposition. Whatever amount is received in response to the appeal printed in this paper will be turned over to Mrs. Johnson absolutely intact, with not one cent deducted for any purpose whatever. If any expenses are incurred in handling these contributions, THE Ack will cheerfully defray them. Contributors to Date. Mother A. M. E. Zion Church, Rev. J. W. Brown, pastor, leads the contributors with the handsome sum of $116 Members of the congregation responded to Pastor Brown's request so promptly and so liberally that the handsome sum was quickly raised. The sum of $159.20 was paid to Mrs. Johnson, this amount having been received in small sums from various sources, as follows: TNK New York Acct. $5.00 Bishop Alexander McGuire, African Orthodox Church. 5.00 Sarco Realty Co. 5.00 Miss Amanda Kemp. 1.00 Miss Rose Smith, 2121 Madison avenue. 1.00 A.

"Editor The New York Age: Please find $1.30 for the widow of Charles Johnson. God bless you and your good paper. You are right. Why should we give only to the families of the police man who were killed by Boddy when one of our own needs our help. This poor widow and six children need our help. Tell the people of it and they will come to her assistance. Did not Charles Johnson give his life in pursuit of his duty? Why not help his family? Not one of the white dailies has offered any help to his widow. Now, we wish we had more editors and papers like yours. Hope you are successful. Yours for the race. GEORGE W. PHILMON. (Collections; Mrs. Abell Bld. 10c; Mrs. Ada Johnson, 20c; Mr. and Mrs. Philmon, $1.)" All contributions for this cause sent to THE NEW York Age will be immediately turned over to Mrs. Johnson and acknowledgement duly made through these columns. ROYALL SAYS NAME USED WITHOUT HIS CONSENT The following letter, from John M. Royall of 21 Wise 134th street, the well known real estate operator, is self-explanatory: "I wish to correct what I consider a gross error and a great public blunder, made by Alderman George W. Harris, editor of the New York News, in his bask to get on record as the personal friend of the widows and children of the two detectives slain in Hartlem on Thursday night, January 5, 1922. A letter came to my office January 9th addressed, 'Dear Madam,' in which information of a benefit at the Douglas Theatre for the wives and children of the slain detectives was given. 'Madam,' I presume, meant my wife, Mrs. Royall, who was asked to join the committee. That was the only information I had of the work of Alderman Harris' charitable committee. "I wish to state that I never authorized any one to use my name in connection with the benevolent work of Editor George W. Harris's widows and Orphans committee, and I was certainly much surprised to see my name in public print connecting me or Mrs. Royall with the good work Alderman Harris undertook to do for the wives and children of the dead officers. "I want to make plain this fact: I was and am always in hearty sympathy with any and all movements in Harlem, which have for their main object, doing good for the sake of doing good, and having an individual and hold him up to public display. I have spirit of goodness in Harlem! I had been personally consulted in any trey. I certainly would have had Mrs. Johnson and her poor little orphans included. Mrs. Johnson is the widow of the colored man slain. "This poor colored family needs help. Their only support, Charles Johnson, the colored man, was shot and killed instantly by hold-up men while he was trying to save the life and protect the money of the man for whom the worked. The widow and children of this brave colored man should have been included in the charitable act of Alderman George W. Harris. I am very sorry that this great blunder was made by the only colored man elected to the Aldermark Board in the City of New York last year to represent the colored people. Alderman Harris made a great and grave public blunder for which there can be no excuse. If representative colored men fail to include their own in their acts of public charity, can the people believe that they acted in good faith in attempting to help white widows and orphans who can be being looked after in many ways with cash money and pensions while the poor colored widow and her little children have no one to turn to who will help them? "Let Hartem make another move in the right direction and not discriminate against a widow and her little orphan children simply because they are colored and poor. "JOHN M. ROYALL.

Dr. Siebert's Angostura Bitters for Health and Strength parsed by the police officials. It is relied that with Boddy's desire to eat accustomed, the police placed a tray of food in front of him, but just out of his reach. Then the statement containing the alleged confession was given him to sign; when he would attempt to reach for something to eat, the tray would be moved away and he would be tantalized by its smell and its proximity. When his hunger overcame every other feeling, he is reported to have said that he was willing to sign anything offered him if it meant getting something to eat. New Witnesses Found. Body. it is said, denies having had a gun, either in New York or while on his journey through New Jersey to Philadelphia in the vain attempt to escape. Printed reports to the effect that he was heavily armed are stated to be without formulation. In a statement to his attorneys, the prisoner is reported to have declared that the only true part of the many wild and exciting stories printed was that concerning the woman's dress which he wore as a disguise. It is further asserted that several new witnesses will be available who will testify-as to the presence at the scene of the shooting at at least two unidentified men whose actions indicated a connection with the shooting of the two detectives. Efforts are being made to locate a man, said to live at 12 West 132nd street, who was believed to be so close to the officers and Bloody when the siege occurred that that man, Devely Millet, will certainly be wounded, his head lay on this man's foot, and that this man's shoe was literally covered with the officer's blood. His testimony, it is said, will indicate that Boddy did no shooting. Then there is another witness who was alleged to have been coming through West 135th street, immediately in the rear of Miller, Bickley and Boddy, walking in the same direction. It is alleged that, this man, when the shooting began, heard the whiz of a bullet passing over his head and that he dropped to the ground to escape the danger of being shot. The inference is that the shots were coming from toward Eighth avenue, tending to bear out this statement predated in last week's Act to an alleged gewitness, who was said to have seen two men coming from Eighth avenue, the shooting occurring just as the two men came up to the officers and Boddy. Testimony Ignored by Police. It is alleged that an animation of this phase of the matter was placed before the police authorities on the night of the shooting, but that it was pon-pooled by them, lining met with the flat declaration that it was impossible and that it was absolutely certain that Boddy had done the shooting. It is not known that any attempt has been made by the authorities to unearth testimony in this direction, every energy having been directed toward the apprehension of Bod- and the fastening of the crime on him. Counselor Herman Hoffman is emphatic in declaring that the case will develop surprises and that the eyes of the community will be opened. Mr. Hoffman says that it is absurd for any one to class Boddy as a desperate after talking intimately with him and understanding him. If this boy gets a white man's chance," said the attorney, "and we can get twelve jurors with open minds, rest assured he will never go to the electric chair. We have some genuine surprises. We are going to open the eyes of this community and it is about time this was done." In the statement alleged to have been signed by Boddy it is said that the detectives were shot because Boddy fostered being beaten up by them, as this had happened to him on several previous occasions when he was not under are! Caike Is Not Dead. In the account published in last week's Ack of the arrest of Boddy, it was chronicled that one William Caine had been found in the cellar of the house at 69 West, 133rd street, Boddy's headquarters, and that Caine had been adversely beaten by officers who arrested him that he died in Harlem Hospital on the following Monday. Later reports show an uncertainty as Caine's fate. The report that appears most authentic is that he did not die but was removed from the hospital on Saturday, January 7th, by the police authorities, and taken to the city prison at 121st street and University place. He was arraigned, it is said, on Tuesday, January 19th, in the 12th District Court and is now being held on a charge of homicide, based on the killing of Charles Johnson, a janitor, who was shot when he went to the rescue of his employer, Jacob Belkim, when Belkim was held up in front of 275 West 140th street and robbed of $800 he had just collected as rentals from houses Belkim controls in 140th street. The report has it that Caine is being held in the 5th district jail at 125th street and Pilgrim place.

The name is taken of Mrs. George and is the name of the woman closely connected with the woman with an Nephew, who is the most famous same city and confluence in the heart of his life who passed away the past week. Peteloche, who was formerly Mrs. Bathma Trush, was a talented writer, bringing the author of several literary works to the world, including the philos- opher work. with this theory is that he is required to help his wife in the shooting. He is not satisfied that he did it to ensure her safety around in a station building. This treatment is part of what is regularly described as the third degree of murder from suspected robbery to police theories. Of course, homicide is calculated to produce the desired results, but it goes further and expands lasting resentment among its victims. Most of the police force are men of courage and humility. One in a while one is revealed to be a jujitsu in brutal clabbing of defenseless civilians, as was the case of a man who was sent to Sing Sing. The profession of hearing an evidence of criminal activity as verified to in the Holy Land is not incredible. Nevertheless, it would be investigated and the value of such evidence as a police practice. In this institute we may rest assured thatbody will receive a fair trial, that history of possible confugates will established and that Negro officers will do their part to help out of business. INVESTMENTS New York City have their own investment companies. money in their treasures. One of these societies is credited with the handwriting sum of $30,000 in hand; another has about $20,000 and a third is supposed to have at least $15,000 on the right side of the ledger. All in all, the organizations of the race have in the neighborhood of $300,000, most of which is locked in the various savings banks, earning interest of four per cent, at the most on a savings bank basis. The bulk of this money is lying no good to the race at large and but little to the specific organization through which it has been accumulated. Beyond a liberal margin necessary to guarantee prompt payment of sick aid and death benefits, the bulk of these funds might be invested to far greater advantage, where even if they earned no greater dividends, they could enhance the prestige and further the interests of the race at large. Suppose these funds were invested in a building enterprise to provide a large hall for public meetings and entertainments, lodge rooms for the various organizations, together with stores for business purposes on the ground floor. It cannot be denied that a building of this sort would meet a long felt want experienced by the race community and its army social and fraternal societies. Tentative efforts have been made by some of our organizations to provide for their special needs in this direction, but for lack of sufficient capital, or some other reason, no practical result has been reached. The Old Fellows have a building plan on foot at the present time, but seem to experience difficulty in raising the necessary capital to put it in operation. What is needed is a concentration of personal and effort in presenting a product of this nature. The capital has already been accumulated in the treasuries of the existing organizations. What is lacking is the spirit of cooperation. Theinking of personal ambitions and the coordination of special interests are necessary in the effort to serve the general good. To benefit the community at large, as well as to serve the special needs of the various societies, would require confidence and good faith on the part of all those participating in the movement. Care should be taken to choose men of experience and proba to represent the organizations furnishing the capital for such an undertaking. It would probably be necessary to arrange the participation on a stock basis, with a board of trustees or directors to look after the financial management. For the technical operation of building and operating the plant the best talent obtainable should be secured. Competent architects, experienced builders and contracted trained real estate and accounting experts should avoid the pitfalls due to putting unexperienced men to handle such problems. With the requisite combination of con- ference and cooperation, president and sulted management, such a project should not only prove a benefit to the committee, but return honest dividends to the society interested. Let the mem- bers of the various fraternal organiza- tions get together and discuss this concerning with a view of getting tami- cer. A DEMOCRATIC MASQUERADE. The Democratic deskey is again cunningly around wearing the boon's skin, seeking to attune his native bea to the feminine over appropriate to work a maquette. Listen to the statement found in the chairman of the Democ ratic National Committee, in regard to the convicted sent of Senator Newberry of Michigan, who was finally declared elected over his opponent, Henry Ford. It waged up with the following disgraceful declarations: "Only the Democratic party can be disposed upon to guard and uphold the public morals, the purity of the bill box and the honor of the United States Senate and the American people." Graham Hill Sot of the Democratic Committee deserves high rank as a humorist of the Petroleum V. Nasyb order, for infiting the above lines. We impose as he wrote them, thinking of Confederate X-Roads, he may have allowed his tongue to come in contact with his check, but he probably argued that the guerriness Republicans would never know it. No Democrats could be fooled by the highfrown sentiments he uttered. They know foo well how Democratic Senators and Representatives are elected below Mason and Dixon's line. The picture of the Democratic party, as represented by Vardaman of Mississippi, Tom Watson of Georgia, Heflin of Alabama, guarding and upholding "the public morale, the parity of the ballot box and the honor of the United States Senate" would be ridiculous if it were not so tragic a farce. Even John Sharp Williams, the case hardened jester of the Senate, could not keep a straight, face if he endeavored to read this official pronouncement to the body mentioned. Whatever may be the merits of the Nealery case, no Democratic Senator or Representative has a clear enough title in law or morals to question Senator Newberry's right to his seat. The title of every Southern Congressman is infilated by fraud at the ballot box and suppression of the suffrage by intimidation and legislative trickery. The attempt of the Democratic minority to masquerade as defender of the purity of the ballot in the veto would not imaginable. Only the unfortunate kind of Republican could be forced to give public support. SENATORIAL VULGARITY. 66th of this month Senator Caraway of Florida the Senate on the Newberry case. Now that no Southern representative we sent which runs over fifteen minutes without a Senator Caraway's speech consumed ten minutes, it is not surprising to see lying on the Newberry case the greater devoted to the Negro. Led off by referring to the race as the very soon he dropped into Southern striving to them as "nigger." In that used the words "nigger" and "niggers." And not once was any exception taken to presiding officer or any member of the bitter thought for colored American citizen group in the country that can be thus insulted in the very legislative halls representative of the Government, and on the direct representative of thousands not a representative or senator vulgarer to refer to any other group of Americans. However, is only another demonstration of people without a vote. Mr. Caraway, doing a fearless Southern gentleman, but his fearlessness, with all of his vulgarity if he was representing the State of Ohio the Senate, states where Negroes vote, he would no more think of referring—to use the vaudeville expression—a king in a bulldog's face. On the 6th of this month Senator Caraway of Arkansas made a speech in the Senate on the Newberry case. Now, it is a demonstrated fact that no Southern representative or senator can make a speech which runs over fifteen minutes without lugging in the Negro. As Senator Caraway's speech consumed considerably more than fifteen minutes, it is not surprising to see that although he was speaking on the Newberry case the greater portion of his speech was devoted to the Negro. He started off by referring to the race as the Negro or as Negroes, but very soon he dropped into Southern vernacular and began referring to them as "nigger." In the course of his speech he used the words "nigger" and "niggers" exactly fourteen times. And not once was any exception taken to his language either by the presiding officer or any member of the Senate. It is a bitter thought for colored American citizens that they form the only group in the country that can be thus publicly humiliated and insulted in the very legislative halls of the capital, and by a representative of the Government, and one that is supposed to be the direct representative of thousands of Negroes. For there is not a representative or senator vulgar enough or daring enough to refer to any other group of American citizens in similar terms. This, however, is only another demonstration of the defenselessness of people without a vote. Mr. Caraway, doubtless, thinks of himself as a fearless Southern gentleman, but Mr. Caraway, with all of his fearlessness, with all of his vulgarity, with all of his prejudice, if he was representing the State of Ohio or the State of Indiana in the Senate, states where Negroes vote and have their votes counted, he would no more think of referring to them as "niggers" than—to use the vaudeville expression—a rabbit would think of spitting in a bulldog's face. NORMAN ANGELL ON FRANCE. Angell, the English publicist, has an affinity of the "Freeman" which undoubtedly has really colored people, who have followed him as headed "The Negro Conquest of France" based his article on some observation of recent Pan-African Congress. At the end of the following footnote: In a morning of attending the Pan-African Congress to visit Saratburg, to the liberation of the islands of the youth of France gave their lives. I found my way to the great municipal barton occupation. On coming out, an attempt to hotel landed me within a hundred yards of a following scene was being enacted. Under the aid of Negroes, hundreds of them were lining up inside the doors of certain houses. From time to time I emerged from those houses, a few were here closed, those outside waiting patiently the street wandered Alaskan children girls and boys which, after all, must be an inevitable incursion the new Africa will come to the aid of old Europe outside the doors of which the Negroes were, and inside were white girls, the Liberated. I thought that is likely to strike the reader that it is a plea to discontinue the two European countries. But on going through the footnote with the heading it driving at an entirely different idea, and openly express, as brave a writer as part of his article he makes a comparative attitude of the English-speaking Negroes at the Congress. He states: "Invitation the English-speaking group habits as "we Negroes," while those from Europe themselves as "we Frenchmen." Mr. Angell's France has managed to make these spirit and feeling, as well as in law; a great Britain have almost absolutely failure of Mr. Angell no one can doubt that the only great colonial power which he colonials feel that they were French in the world could a great General have out the Negro race as was made by German army and published in the New York magazine, who was for twenty years a military officer in the African colonies of France, was in command of African troops, said given out in Paris: Norman Angell, the English, publicist, has an article in the last number of the "Freeman" which undoubtedly puzzle magy people, especially colored people, who have followed his writings. The article is headed "The Negro Conquest of France." Mr. Angell has his article on some observations which he made at the recent Pan-African Congress. At the end of the article he appended the following footnote: "On the marrow of attending the Pan-African Congress in Paris, I had occasion to visit Sarasburg, to the liberation of which so many tens of thousands of the youth of France gave their lives. On a Sunday morning I found my way to the great municipal baths, a legacy of the German occupation. On coming out, an attempted short-cut back to my hotel landed me within a hundred yards of a street in which the following scene was being enacted: Under the summer sun, long queues of Negroes, hundreds of them, were lining up, in orderly fashion, outside the doors of certain houses. From time to time a few Negroes emerged from those houses, a few were admitted and the doors were closed, those outside waiting patiently their turn. Through this street wandered Alaskan children, girls and boys, watching a spectacle, which, after all, must be an inevitable incident of the age in which the new African will come to the aid of old France. For those houses, outside the doors of which the Negroes were waiting, were brothels, and inside were white girls, the Liberated Daughters of France." The first thought that is likely to strike the reader on finishing the article is that it is a plea to discontinue the use of black troops in European countries. But on going through the article again and coupling the foot-note with the heading it appears that Mr. Angell is driving at an entirely different idea, an idea which he does not too openly express, as brave a writer as he is. In the first part of his article he makes a comparison between the mental attitude of the English-speaking Negroes and the French-speaking Negroes at the Congress. He states that according to his observation the English-speaking group habitually spoke of themselves as "we Negroes," while those from French territory spoke of themselves as "we Frenchmen." Mr. Angell states that this means France has managed to make these dark people French alike in spirit and feeling, as well as in law; a thing which America and Great Britain have almost absolutely failed in doing. This statement of Mr. Angell no one can doubt. It is true that France is the only great colonial power which has managed to make Negro colonials feel that they were Frenchmen. In no other country in the world could a great General have made such a statement about the Negro race as was made by General Mangin of the French army and published in the New York "World" of January 8th. General Mangin, who was for twenty years a military and administrative officer in the African colonies of France, and who in the great war was in command of African troops, said in an interview recently given out in Paris: (Special Correspondent of The World.) PARIS. December 28—"An end must be put to this almost legend of the inferiority of the black race. It is bound solely on the tradition of slavery and is not at all flattering to the white race!" December 28—"An end must be put to this alienity of the black races. It is based solely on race and is not at all distressing to the white race. It has its source in Yellow Asia, Black India, dates only from 1,200 or 1,500 years before it was a tardy pavement in the history of world commerce Atlantic and our figures Arab. In short, stage in humanity, not the first nor probably guarantee that it will not be outdistanced by the ages." General was asked for an explanation of Africa he said: "ends on what is understood by progress. There "Civilization has its source in Yellow Asia, Black India and Black Egypt. Greece dates only from 1,200 or 1,500 years before Christ and Rome was only a tardy peruvian in the history of world development. Our alphabets are Asiatic and our figures Arab. In short, the white race is only a stage in humanity, not the first nor probably the last. There is no guarantee that it will not be obstructed by the colored races in future ages." When the General was asked for an explanation of the "lack of progress" in Africa he said: "That depends on what is understood by progress. There is moral progress, which has not made much advance for centuries, and scientific progress, which strides with giant pions. Moral progress is as good as, and perhaps better, than in Paris, among extinct African tribes. As to the second, more illiteracy, than real. Negroes assimilate it with discomforting rapidity. Three months is sufficient for them to become locomotive drivers, steamboat pilots or train cab chauffeurs. All our wireless stations in Africa are servied by natives." General Mangin stated that the attitude toward the black colonies of France in the following words: "The Proctoman is infinitely more courteful with his black male cousins and more gallant with his black female cousins. Generally the French resident, civilian or military, lives on excellent terms with the local population as soon as they realize that we are not there to persecute them or hold them to remonition, and that there is every advantage in supporting themselves on our tempered tattitude and good fellowship. That is what distinguishes us from the English—correct, loyal and laughly, who know better how to make themselves feared than to make themselves loved. "I believe we are the only main in the world which treats the blacks as brothers—as inferior brothers, if, in the depth of sufficient moral or intellectual examination, they have not esteemed their male superiority; as equals when their black defences hung, brought to water by our teaching, is tested by the普遍 legal." mattitude of the black leaders in the French Empire, which but only quietly them to think of themselves as Frenchmen, but makes them more than willing to encourage their people to enlist in the French army and fight the battles of France, should not interest the white world merely as a moral or sentimental fact, but because of certain far-reaching political possibilities which it involves. Mr. Angell feels that if the French Negro leaders would or could express their conscious and unconscious purposes the summary would run something like this: The English-spanning Negro insists that the Negro is suffering great wrongs throughout the world at the hands of the white race. That is perfectly true. But why are the Negro's rights treated with consent? Because he is powerless. The white is ruler because he has an unquestioned, overwhelming preponderance of force. He will never treat us Negroes on a basis of equality until we can defend ourselves. How can we defend ourselves? By a Negro combination, the solidarity of the black race? It is a dream. It will be centuries before we can have such solidarity or such organization. But there is a great instrument of power which can be used for the defense of Negro interests and rights within our reach, if we play our cards properly. That instrument is the political and military power of France. The French army is already one-third Negro. The birth rate of France is stationary. There is only one way by which France can maintain a permanent parity of power, and that is with the help of the African Negro. We Negroes therefore hold the balance of power in the greatest quarrel in Western civilization. France can maintain the hegemony of Europe thanks only to what her military writers have called "la force noire." She is coming to a time when the preeminence of her military power will in fact rest upon the Negro. What more could we ask as an instrument for securing our rights in the world? France shall be our spokesman among the white powers. When on the next occasion, as colored nation, whether Asianic or African, demands as a principle, say, of the League of Nations, the recognition of racial equality, and some new Mr. Wilson, as the protagonist of democracy, choose to oppose that principle, then France shall stand upon it. She shall stand upon it because that will be the one condition of her being able to put any reliance upon her largest military raw material. In any vital Negro question, this greatest of the military powers will support us. In this then, the time to withhold the military cooperation of our people, the black population of France? Any true conception of the best policy for us Negroes would be to extend Negro conscription to the utmost possible extent, to make it as indispensable as possible. We are not sure, and we do not think that Mr. Angell is sure that all of this is in the minds of the French Negro leaders, either consciously and unconsciously, but his deductions are interesting: they are more than interesting, they are startling. So far as we know, are more than interesting, they are startling. So far as we know, it is the first time that any such idea has been given to the world. The idea that France will some day become the instrument of power through which the people of Africa and of African descent will command the respect and fair treatment of the world, and not only a military instrument, because of her black legions, but also a racial instrument, because in the meantime she will have become, more or less, a colored nation, is one to start the imagination on a far journey. A recent inquiry as to the contemporaries of Fredrick Douglas, addressed to the editor of Tark Aor, possessed more than usual interest in view of the fact that next month will mark the 105th anniversary of the birth of their great tribute of his people. Born in 1817, in Tallot county, Maryland, Douglas' career as a public speaker began at Nantucket in 1841, at an anti-slavery convention. His last public utterance was made in behalf of woman suffrage, just previous to his death near Washington, February 20, 1895. During this period of over half a century Mr. Douglas had been thrown into contact with the greater and the lesser lights of tooth races, in the United States and abroad. Among his contemporaries of his own race may be recalled Robert Purvis and Isaiah Weirs of Philadelphia, John Mercer Langston, B. K. Bruce, P. B. B. S. Pinchback, John R. Lynch and others who figured in the political doings of Reconstruction and the later period. of his meeting Theodore Tilton and Gen. Benj. F. Butler, Wendell Phillips, Senator Charles Summer and others foremost in anti-slavery matters were contemporaries of older standing. Mr. Douglas' later career in politics and as a holder of public office, brought him into contact with all the President of the United States from Grant to Harrison. His quality as an orator was tested by his appearing on a Cooper Union platform on the same occasion with Robert Ingersoll and Chaucer M. Dupas and bearing favorable comparison with either. The contemporaries of Frederick Douglas during his long and eventful public career were so numerous that to but call their roll would suggest a biographical encyclopedia. The foregoing summary indicates in some measure the men of both races who lived and fashioned during the same era. It was truly an age of giants. HEADWAY IN BOSTON In noting the death of Miss Maria L. Baldwin, the only woman "master" of a public school in the city of Cambridge, Mr. J. E. Chamberlin, a well known Boston newspaperman, writing in the New York Evening Mail, said that "her great personal merit had made her the friend of some of the most prominent families in Cambridge and Boston. He added: So far as I can ascertain her color never made any difference with her standing and estimation in the community; her personal merits had enabled her to transcend that difficulty completely. However, that fact she herself did not forget or try to make anybody else forget, and her death came by collage when she was taking part in a meeting of the Robert Gould Shaw House Association in behalf of colored education. In the school of which she was the master she had long taught white children, with a small spruiking of those of her own race. She was, in particular, a kindling friend of the Agamis family, and she also numbered the late Julia Ward Howe among her close friends. Probably the colored race has made better handwriting against its usual social disabilities in and around Prairie than anywhere else in the country. The race here has at least one real leader in the bar in the person of W. H. Lewis, whose color is probably forgiven by everybody until he himself occasionally calls attention to it by undertaking, for nothing, the championship in the courts of some poor Negro who has got into trouble. His color seems also, and with propriety, to be pretty completely forgiven in the case of William Smiley Braunstein, who writes the poetry criticism in the Boston Transcript, contributing also to the magazines and literary periodicals, and who is generally considered the leading authority on poetry in the country. Mr. Brebendite is a resident of Cambridge. The rising generation of poets throughout the country look with decided interest for his commendation of their efforts, and it may be said that the womens' editor then be dissatisfied, and seems to a male editor to be displeased. or disqualification. With him the recourse of criticism is appraisal, where it may fairly be awarded. So far as the instances mentioned mean anything, they indicate a safe and some normality on the part of educated Bostonians. The color of the skin should not be allowed to affect the standing of a man or woman on the marin of his or her work in education law or literature. If the best sentiment of Boston has gone that far, it is credible to its judgment and sense of proportion. May it drag the rest of America up to such a civilized standard. WHO IS TO BLANK. Luther Boddy, murderer of two defenders, should be punished according to the law. Who is actually to blame for this dual murder? In my estimation, the law. Why are such characters permitted to be at large? This man having a criminal record, should have been in prison. Why was he not there? What are laws for if not to be enforced and protect the public? Although Luther Boddy actually killed three men, graft—the love of the almighty dollar, rather than principle, a condition which we find in almost every phase of American civilization, is responsible. What we need in America is a general all round clean up from inside out. If the fundamental principles and systems governing a people are not properly carried out, what can be expected of the people? Everywhere people are complaining of the heavy burdens they are bearing; everywhere the spirit of unrest and dissatisfaction is manifested. The balam for all these alike should be found in the church, the freest institution in the history of the world. The question is asked as the feeling seems to grow. "What is the trouble with the church of today that it cannot seem to remedy these ills?" "But before the question can be answered three more follow: (1) Why do thousands, yes, tens of thousands of people right in Harlem avoid the church? (2) Why do these same people crowd the theaters, cabarets, and other worthless places on Sunday instead of going to church? (3) Why does the church permit this condition of affairs to continue? There must be an answer given each of these four questions. This spirit of current is caused principally because of the great lack of employment. Crime of every description is prevalent and social leaders and churches stand appared and question. The church offers its help and throws within its doors but the people do not stand, nor do they wish the help offered; but march like one rust army pass the open door. That is the reason, in answering the first question, that the church does not seem to remedy this disturbing condition because it fails to reach the great masses of people who have been here for years and never think of going to any church except on New Year's Eve and Easter. In answering the second question many things might be said but a brief statement or two will do. There need to be a time in the history of the church when it discouraged an elaborate display of wearing apparel because of its disastrous effect upon her members. Today men and women stay away from church because they cannot afford to dress themselves or their children lavishly. It is declared that people who dared go into a "fashionable" church inexcessively garbled, have been humiliated. David spoke trifly when he said, "Man kneels on the outward appearance but God knocks on the heart." Then those who might be able to keep up in the "dress parade" find most of the church obligations too heavy to carry with their other already overburdening responsibilities. The slogan used now against most of our churches, even by devout members, is—"They are always begging for money." Every one is conscious of the fact that the "gidow's man," through expressly approved by Christ, is out of date in the modern church. The answer for the second question will do for the third, but a word more is necessary. The people who avoid church on Sunday and frequent questionable places, do not do so because they are totally deprived. No, they are looking for something the church of today, seems to, fail to possess "Love," which dawns all men. Remaining in church a half day to one service and listening to a lengthy sermon does not attract the men and women of today but that alone rather repels, so the only other place for them to go is in the dawn and dives of vice. If these things continue, it does not need a prophet to tell what the end will be. We may well start now, wringing our hands and weeping, for our will is our face. Men and women spanking disrespectfully of the church, ignoring her invitation and lazily defying its doctrines and principles can only result in such things as the murder of the two police detectives by a comparatively young boy; our own policemen wounded, women and children almost transfer alone in public and many other horrible crimes. The church must STOP! LOOK! LISTEN! She must stop building new churches before she has finished paying the old edifice. Stop trying to see which denomination can have the largest, most expensive and beautiful building. The preacher should stop trying to get rich and pay more attention to their most sacred calling. They were called not only to preach on Sunday, but to heal the broken-hearted, visit the widows and orphans, and minister to the sick and distressed. Some preachers may say they have too many members to be bothered with, so they let the "assistant" do the work. The people that their particular pastor to consider in and feel that he is interested in them personally. He must always find time to visit the sick and distressed. The church must look around her and get busy quickly. Don't wait for a revival to start before getting interested but be always looking for men, and when she has focused them she should look to their needs, and peace to them that the religion of Jesus Christ is a practical one which help them every day. Then the church must listen to the master of life speaks through the ages from the time of kenneth and hud his wife. Conforty ye, confort ye My husband with your God. BENETT R. DOWNEY Some Continuing Pleasure of The Rise in New Orleans in Business and Professional Life CONTINUING THE STORY OF PROGRESSIVE PEOPLE WHO ARE ACHIEVING SUCCESS A Brilliant Young Musician, Whose Work Is of a High Order—Contractor and Builder and Railway Mail Clerk Now Leading Insurance Company Figures New Orleans, La.—One of the outstanding bright lights in the local field of music is Mia Camille L. Nicherson, graduate of Oberlin, Ohio Conservatory of Music, she is a daughter of William J. Nicherson, who was professor of music of Southern University of Louisiana when it was located in New Orleans. Miss Nicherson is regarded as the most thoroughly educated devotee of music of her roots in this city, having been born and bred in the amosphere of the art practiced and studied in her home when she laid the foundation and afterwards taking the full course for the pianoforce at Oberlin. Her work in Oberlin ended for her in brilliant eclips, she having the honor of playing a grand concerto as her part in the graduation exercises, which she gave so well that it was rated as a feature of the brilliant exercises and for which she was showed with compliments from veteran musicians present. Miss Nicherson has sustained the high standard with which she was credited at Oberlin in all her work here and is president of the "B" Sharp Music Club of this city, composed of a large number of talented and accomplished young lady students of the art here. She is organist for the Holy Ghost Catholic Church of this city and director of the choir. The work she has succeeded in doing with the voices of this choir is simply wonderful considering the standard of music used and the language of the church ceremonies. JOSEPH DOJOIE Pharmacist. This is one of the young men of the race in the city who have really accomplished much in their striving for a place in the sun. Married even before he got into business for himself, while simply a qualified assistant in the profession with a number of children to care for. Mr. Dejioe worked dry after this and went to school at night until he was fully prepared to take the test of examination for registered pharmacist, which he passed before the Board of Examiners of the State Board of Pharmacists about fourteen years ago. With a license to practice pharmacy from the State Board of Pharmacy, he as everybody here knows him, soon felt it was time to get to work for himself. He was not long in doing this. He had had long experience in filling descriptions and in ordinary supplies for the old reliable Dejioe drug store, in which he apprenticed, because: first a qualified assistant and next a registered pharmacist, and this experience he naturally put to the best of use when he embarked in the business and profession on his own account. Today it looks like everybody knows Joe Dejioe and respects him as a man of good judgment in business. His place of business corner South Rampart and North streets, which he owns, is well fitted up with supplies and fixtures and its ramage is large. He has built himself a modern home, worth more than $7,000, in which he and his family live. He has a son and a daughter in school at Talledega College and is a member of the Board of Directors and is the treasurer of the Louisiana Industrial Life Insurance Company, which has written something like fifty thousand policies since May, 1920, when it was organized. WILLIAM . E. ROBERTSON Contractor and Builder. Although William E. Robertson started in and for twenty-five years followed the contracting and building business, on recent years he has been giving most of his time to the insurance business. He reaped considerable success as a builder and saved his earnings since a man who understands the value of a dollar. About twelve years ago he put a goodly share of the money he had saved in the Unity Industrial Life and Sick Benefit Insurance Company and became its treasurer. The company after a while grew strong and paid the shareholders well and Mr. Robertson profited by its success. He gave up indicting contracts after this but has always taken the work called on to do so by firms or individuals who wanted him to do jobs for them, and they have not been a true. So he has been doing well in both lines and is regarded as one of the most substantial men of the race in the city. He has a special and comfortable home and other properties here. After the death of the late Dr. P. H. V. Dejie, president of the Unity Life and Industrial Insurance Company, he became the secretary of the concern. On the twenty-fifth anniversary of his marriage, December 16th, 1921, friends of himself and his charming wife here and in Chicago, Chicago, Chicago, Los Angeles, Akron, Ohio, and in Baton Rouge, remember the event, sent them 110 silver tokens of good wishes, all beautiful and valuable as gifts for a nice home, such as thins in, Their pastor, the Rev. Mr. B. J. Rudkis, of Mr. Zian M. R. E. Church and Mrs. Ophelia Smith, one of the teachers of Theology Lafon Public School and a highly favored pianist and organist at the same time, were present at the celebration and contributed largely to the joy and happiness of the occasion; the Rev. Mr. Rudkis, by the helpful and inspiring good widow expressed and Mrs. Smith by the elevating and beautiful music which the played. Their daughter, Mrs. Eden, Russell Clark of Chicago, came down for the event, and by doing so left nothing to be desired for complying the happiness of the day and evening. C. CONSANT BEJOIR President of Unity Industrial Life Insurance Community Constant Driebe is almost in a daze by himself as a young man giving himself a seriousity to business. He gradually takes daze off his play and is impressed from his business and so is impressed with words too colloid. earned money for investment. The investments were wise, in real estate in a part of the city which the foreman would be worth much money later on. The money invested multiplied itself many times in the value he was later able to place on the proportion on account of the high class surroundings. For real estate which cost him perhaps fifteen hundred he found buyers offering fifteen thousand dollars for a few years ago and sold it. Tiring of the railway mail service he became commented in an official way with the Unity Industrial Life and Stick Benefit Insurance Company, in which he had considerable shares and helped to make it the big concern it is. When his brother, the Dr. P. H. V. Dejoje, died recently, Constant had already become the secretary manager of the company, and was shortly afterwards elected to the presidency to fill the vacancy caused by the death of Dr. Dejoja thus becoming head of the biggest concern that our people have in the state at the present time. Mr. Dejoje is married and is father of a family. His wife and baby's photograph was the outer cover picture of The Crusis magazine, New Orleans number, in 1913. He is one of the big shareholders of the $45,000 management park opened by colored people in the down-town section of the city over six months ago, and is a substantial supporter of race enterprise. WILLIAM T. HAYES Pharmacist. One of the steadiest young men in the pharmacist business in the city is William Hayes. Before he bought the business of the People's Drug Store and took over the management to himself, he was constantly in demand as relief man for managers who needed to take days off for rest or vacation from their business and the first complaint that their business suffered for want of proper attention on his part when they were away is yet to be heard. This showed the reliability of Mr. Hayes, as well as the confidence in which he is held by the managing druggists here of the race. But the facts about Mr. Hayes is that he has been working in drug stores practically all his life and the work is as natural to him as can be. He studied the profession in a regular, busy pharmacy where great facilities for first hand practical experience in reading prescriptions and seeing them filled with an everyday chance with him for many years before he took a correspondence course in pharmacy to prepare himself for the test of examination for license and registration as a registered pharmacist as required by law before being permitted to practice. He pursued the examination without any trouble. He is gradually building up the business which he has taken over to manage for himself and feels certain that by the time he shall have had it in hand a year, it will be able to give a very satisfactory account of itself. Those who know Mr. Hayes feel the same way about it. VIRGINIA N & L IS HAVING SPLENDID YEAR (Special to the New York Age, Pittsburgh, Va.) The first quarter of the Virginia Normal and Industrial Institute closed December 16th. At the time fifteen students were graduated, seven from the Normal Industrial School, one from the Normal School and seven from the High School. Eight hundred and fifty students were enrolled in the boarding department, two hundred and fifty in the Training School, a total of one thousand one hundred students for the quarter—a larger number than ever were enrolled in the normal and high Schools. Less than a hundred were enrolled in the eighth grade. The second quarter began December 19th. Forty-three new pupils entered at this time, ten in the normal, the rest in the high school. At the close of last year a campaign was launched by the students and faculty to raise funds to build a gymnasium at the Institute, to cost $25,000. The members of the faculty pledged more than a thousand dollars. The students this year have plaudited to raise $3,000. A new director of the farm has been secured. C. J. Westman, formerly of Owensburg Institute. The Practice School is completed and is housing the eight grades of the elementary school. The director of the normal school has her office in the building and all the teachers in the school are centered there. The extension work is in charge of G. W. Owens, director of agriculture under direction of Thomas D. Eason, State Supervisor of Agriculture. Mr. Owens visits the school at intervals, assists the teachers in study work and makes reports of the conditions of the schools to the State Supervisor of Agriculture. F. F. Siemian, director of trade, is conducting an extension course in Norfolk. Charles W. Florence is conducting classes in Fultonburg and Newport News for teachers who desire to work towards a normal professional certificate. The third quarter will begin March 12th. HOWARD-LINCOLN GAME ARRANGED FOR 1922 (Special to The New York Age) Lincoln University, Pa.—The officials of Lincoln and Howard Universities sit here on Saturday, January 16th, to arra- ge for the Lincoln-Howard football game to be played at Washington most Thanksgiving Day. Lincoln was re- represented by Dr. George E. Cuspit of Jersey City and Dr. W. G. Al- mendor of Orange, N. J., while Secretary Emmit J. Scroat and Major Dean re- presented Howard. Dr. W. G. Alexander addressed the student body of Howard University and in an address of the Almendor presented to each member by faculty members of the university. Maria Baldwin, Master of Agassiz School, Cambridge Stricken on Platform at Copley-Plaza Hotel, Boston-Only Colored Master in New England (Special to The New York Age) Boston, rMass. - While addressing members of the Council of the Robert Gould Shaw House Association Monday afternoon in the Copley-Plaza, Boston, Miss Marie Baldwin, principal of the Agassiz School, Cambridge, Mass., one of the most prominent colored women in the United States, collapsed in the middle of her discourse and died within a few minutes. WOMEN'S MORTALITY NOT GULTY OF NEGLECT Miss S. Elizabeth Fraker, president of the Woman's Auxiliary, 15th Regiment, New York Infantry, engages strenuous and emphatic dental, that the women are guilty of neglecting the wound. Miss Baldwin, the third speaker of the afterpart, was delivering one of her characteristic additions: "She suddenly haled, brushed her hand across her eyes and fell to the floor. Benjamin F. Seldon, a Y. M. G. A. secretary, rushed to her assistance. The house physician and Dr. Bird were summoned and the three gave first aid. All efforts to survive her were unsuccessful. An ambulance was summoned and she was taken to the City Hospital. On arrival there she was appranced dead. Dr. Alexander Mann, rector of Trinity Church, who is president of the Council, and who presided at the meeting, immediately adjourned the session. Dr. Robert R. Moton, principal of Tuskegee Institute, and Miss Esther Barrows of the South End House, Boston, had just preceded Miss Baldwin with their addresses. Miss Baldwin was educated in the schools of Cambridge, was graduated from the Cambridge Teachers' Training School in 1881, and the following year started teaching in the Agassiz School. In 1907 she was appointed principal of that school and in 1916, when the school was enlarged, she was made master, having the distinction of being the only woman to hold such a position in the schools of Cambridge. She was probably the only colored master of a public school in New England. Her reputation as a teacher was enviable. Her kindness and patience with the children under her direction in scholastic activities throughout her long period at Agassiz School brought her the high esteem of thousands in Cambridge. She was a close friend of members of the Agrasiz family and also of many Harvard professors and Cambridge professional men whose children she taught. She had taken many courses at Harvard University, Boston University, and other higher educational institutions. She was one of the most prominent women lecturers in the country. She was president of the Women's Community Service League; a member of the Twentieth Century Club; a former president of the Boston Ethical Society; and a member, of the Council of the Robert Gould Shaw House Association. Miss Baldwin had been in ill health for some time. Her death is believed to have been due to heart trouble. She is survived by a sister, a teacher in a high school in Wilmington, Del., and a brother, a graduate of Harvard, a practicing lawyer in the West. For many years, up to the time of her death, she resided in the Franklin Square House, Boston. The Funeral Service Funeral service for Miss Baldwin took place Thursday, January 15th, in the Arlington Street Church. For the preceding two days Miss Baldwin's body had been lying in state in the parlor of the League of Women for Community Service, of which she had been president. The casket was surrounded by flowers the gifts of her hosts of friends. Several ministers took part in the services, which were opened by Rev. Abraham M. Rilibany, minister of the Church of the Disciples. Rev. Pitt D. Dingham read from the Scriptures; Harold K. Estabrook, secretary of the Boston Ethical Society, read from the organization's literature, and Rev. Alexander Mann,ector of Trinity Church, spoke a few words of enology. The bearers were Robert Treat Paine, Harold Pebody, Clarence D. Kinglesy, Dr. Samuel E. Courtney, Clement G. Morgan, U. A. Ridley and William L. Reed. The body was taken to the chapel of its Massachusetts Cremation Society. Miss Baldwin was wristen on Monday while addressing a meeting of the Robert Gould Shaw Association at the Copley-Plaza.

Dr. Cypressman, Dixon, Birmingham, Pennsylvania, 17102. Sandwich Pike Planning Birmingham, Pennsylvania WOMEN'S AUXILIARY NOT GULTY OF NEGLECT Miss S. Elizabeth Fratier, president of the Woman's Auxiliary, 15th Regiment, New York Infantry, engages strenuous and emphatic dental, that the women are guilty of neglecting the wounded veterans of the 369th A. E. F. (Old 15th, now being treated at Fox Hills Hospital, Staten Island). This dental is called forth by charges contained in an anonymous letter published in the New York Amsterdam News to the effect that the women did not appear at Fox Hills and dispense Christmas cheer to the overseas wounded veterans. In her statement Miss Frazer declares that the Auxiliary made application to the hospital authorities for an opportunity to entertain the wounded men during the holidays but that official information was received to the effect that no day was available for the purpose. The hospital authorities as the same time offered the women the date of January 21st, which was accepted and plans have been perfected for making the trip, to Staten Island on that day and taking the wounded men their defended holiday joy. A letter from the Woman's auxiliary reads as follows: HEADQUARTERS WOMAN'S AUXILIARY 15TH ROOM, NEW YORK INFANTRY 56 West 130th Street New York Will you kindly give space to the following response to an open anecdote letter said to have been written and sent by a wounded veteran of the 15th Regiment, in Fox Hills Hospital, Staten Island, and published in the New York Amsterdam News. The veteran flies the Woman's Auxiliary, 15th Regiment, for not appearing at the hospital during Christmas week to dispense Christmas choer. It was through no fault of the Woman's Auxiliary that a representation of the Auxiliary did not appear during the holidays. An application was made at the hospital for a holiday date, for the entertainment of the wounded men of the 15th Regiment. The representation of the Auxiliary was officially informed that there was no open date for Christmas week. January 21st was given the Auxiliary, as the earliest available date; at which time, a program, etc., will be rendered for the benefit of the wounded men. Weekly, for months and months, the Woman's Auxiliary committee has visited Fox Hills Hospital taking to the men money, clothing, food and smokes. In fact every request made by them has been granted. The members of the visitation committee ceased taking delicacies when such were forbidden by the hospital authorities. None know the work of the Woman's Auxiliary better than the members of the 15th Regiment and their families, for whom the Auxiliary has served voluntarily, unremittingly and without orientation. It has not only responded to the calls of its own regiment but has rendered assistance to men of other regiments, and will continue its service to the end. An effort has been made to have this response inserted in a column of the New York Amsterdam News, but the editor informed a representative of the Auxiliary that a letter from the commanding officer of the 15th Infantry serves the purpose. S. ELIZABETH FRATER President Plhoeer Insurance Man Dead. Augusta, Ga.-Col. R. Paul Davis, one of the pioneers in establishing Negro industrial insurance companies in this State, died January 11th at Macon, Ga., where he has been stationed for several years as state uperintendent of the Pilgrim Life and Health Insurance Co., which has its home office in Augusta. Col. Davis was one of the founders of the Pilgrim company, but previous to the passing of a state law which required depositing $10,000 in registered bonds in the State treasury, he had operated another company which he personally owned. This was merged into the Pilgrim when the law restrictions proved too much for the smaller, companies. The family home was maintained here by Mrs. Davis, with a daughter, Sadie, who was married sometime ago, both of whom survive Mr. Davis. Formal services were held in Macon on January 18th and the body brought to Augusta, for burial in the city cemetery, after burial services on Friday, January 18th.

Walker Preparations If you want Beauty of Completion and loveliness of Hair try Madam C.J. Walker's World Renowned Toilet Preparations LIMIT DIRECTIONS ON EVERY BOTTLE The St. Luke Herold, published at Richmond, Va., pronounces the night school attendance in that former capital of the Confederacy a credit to the race it says: At about 7:30 o'clock at night the streets of Richmond are as warm with colored people attirist for knowledge. The night-school hells are whirling with scream calls to the hurring black thrones who have been cheated out of their former birthrights. They will not be downed. They will not be utterly robbed of that one precious gem which cannot be taken from them. Among those who are taking the night class courses are very old people who were, once in slavery, and who remember when it was a crime and a flogging for a Negro to be caught with a book in his hands. All honor to those colored people who will not give the struggle over till they reduce the illiteracy of their race at least by only one point! This pursuit of knowledge by those who work during the day, or who failed to have such opportunities in their youth is not only highly creditable to their pluck and persistence, but furnishes an example to others. The opportunities for education in a great city like New York are free to all who will give time and effort to the purpose of mental improvement. Those who are busy during the day will find instruction free at night in almost any desired subject. Let us make the most of these opportunities for advancement. A writer in the Business World ventures the assertion that the Jew is more successful in any line of business he undertakes than the most businesslike man of the Negro race. In support of this he adds: The Negro starts into business in the bootblack business for instance. The Jew, also starts in the same business, shining shoes for everybody. He comes to Harlem and the Negro outcries very loud, louder than his lungs allow him and this breath permits him. He claims that the Jew comes to take possession of the business which rightfully belongs to him. But he has forgotten that when the Jew comes and opens his Sibbe Shine Parlor he means business and nothing else, and he is going to do business in the right way and of the right kind. The Negro thinks that because he is shining shoes for his fellow-man, he is allowed to get out of the sphere in which his bootblack parlor has placed him. He usually starts conversations of certain familiarities with his customers and entertaining himself in some "to the degree that he forgets that he is shining shoes and thinks that it is a parlor for a very friendly chat where he is being paid to be an entertainer. And at the end of the run when the time is up for him to have finished—if he has finished—the work is not satisfactory—or rather the shoes are not shining as they should shine. This is a rather severe indictment of the shortcomings of a certain class of our workers, who slight, their work in order to entertain their customers. It should always be kept in mind that business is business, and the customer who pays is entitled to an ample return in service or goods. Commenting on the passing of the late senior Senator from Pennsylvania, the Philadelphia Tribune said: Starting his political career in the midst of colored people of the better class, Boies Penrose knew the better side of colored life by reason of close association in his boyhood and young manhood days with colored men of the stump of Dr. William Warrick, James H. Williams, Frank Jones, Frank Posts and others of their like, who were his political associates in the halcyon days of his earlier political career. It was perhaps the memory of these men and their upright characters and their families whom he knew well, that prompted Pentose in his vigorous defense of the Negro during most of his emotional career. For very word Penrose uttered in defense of our rights in the legislative halls of Pennsylvania and those of the National Capital, colored historians, will give him the credit he justly deserves. Just what the influence was that Nass brought to bear upon the Senator to cause him to desist the Negro when his aid and influence were most needed to pass a law protecting the rights of the colored people of his native state, is beyond the common knowledge of the people of Pennsylvania. His sudden change from approval to open opposition of the Ashbury Equal Rights Bill of a year ago, temporarily set the Negroes of Pennsylvania back at least until the next session of the State legislature. Truly it has been said, the evil that men do lives after them, the good is off intermed with their bones. Let us hope that the harm done the race by Senator Penrose's change of attitude may be remedied at no late day. --- A correspondent of the Dallas Express who was delayed in New York while seeking to join a tourists party bound for Liberia, gave some time and space to a consideration of Negro life in Harlem. Among other things he noted: There are many men and women in this city holding splendid positions. A few men have made money in real estate and quite a few own their own homes. But it is not an uncommon thing for a man to be paying on a place that costs him ten thousand dollars, and holding a porter job some where. In efforts to make it, the fills his house in many cases with all kinds of people and tolerates all kinds of conduct. This of itself must be a death blow to family life. But high rent is the order of the day, and to meet them every particle of space is occupied even the end of halls in many places are use as sleepy rooms. With so many people out of work, I doubt if there is a place on earth where the struggling among people for existence is as keen as it is here in New York. With this vast group of chony humanity, as stated above the largest number of any place on the face of the earth, it is strange to say, the Jew, Italians, Greeks, other foreigners and a liberal sprinkling of whites operate the business of Harlem. Were it not for the barber shops, restaurants, pressing shops and a few isolated efforts at business along a few other lines you could write zero after Negro business. There seems to be a lack in Negro solidarity which would bring together groups of men who could put over big enterprises. I have been coming to New York once and some times twice every year, but I have usually been quite busy while here and had no time for getting information, but my detention has given me an opportunity to study some of the conditions, and in spite of myself the question presses upon my attention, is New York so the black man what the Dead Sea is to its turbiquities? You know the strange thing about the Dead Sea. Nothing can live in its waters. While these conclusions may be excepted to us as one-sided and too swerving, it is well for us to know the impression that is produced upon outsiders, by what meets the eye in Harlem. It but emphasizes the necessity for a greater Congressman Frank Clark of Fla. is said to favor the Ku Klux Klan, be he is a member of it. We have a way suspicious him, for he has no ideas about some things. Probably the Florida republicans was not the only member of Congress who had sworn allegiance to the act of midnight maneuvers. This may be plain why the investigation of the KK was dropped with such haste. A paragrapher in the Norfolk Journal and Guide voiced a common complaint when he wrote: Judging from the way grown read the captions at the movie we are forced to believe that the reading is a modern novelty. It is only a phase of the prev tendency toward individual express Silence on any subject is out of and the less the speaker knows of his themes the more valuable he can come, being unfettered by facts. The crime wave which has lava Atlanta moved the Atlanta Independence to make the following suggestion: The remedy should be found and plied, and the sooner the better for concerned. We are inclined to a opinion that there should be better policemen, for no class of men can do more to run down these benefits cut-throats, especially among cool people, than colored policemen. We think that the city authorities lay aside their narrowness and app colored men on the police force, if a stop is to be made of these men which are sweeping the city by races some colored men should be pointed. The value of this suggestion is most fest by the good results in crime and detecting criminals by employment of colored officers in the large cities. New York could use the colored men and women of the stripe to great advantage on its police force at the present time. SCRAPPING 'FOR TEN YEARS' My New Year's greeting to dear million Negroes: A ten years' count savings: First: We as a distinct race, who have a most egg in the way of money or we will be put out of the basin alogether. Second: A ten years' savings will us on the market for real business. Third: How can we best do this? Fourth: By reducing the following things: Clothing, jewelry, shows of kinds, banquets, bar dinners, All City boardwalks, vacations, companies automobiles (exception for business making or giving costly presents), weddingdings costly rent for money. How can we use our money for years? Put it in some national bank and in United States bonds. Do with the penny savings banks or the companies of any kind; play with ten years. Eat whole some food, warm clothing, educate to the high live in healthy locations, study commerce and expert investors, take care of your person, and above all attend church ten years and have the blessings of upon you. (Gen) G. N. KINCAID 409 Haynes street, Atlantic City, N. Benefit for Johnson's Widow. A midnight show is being staged benefit of Charles Johnson's widow the Lafayette Theatre on Friday January 20th. A big program is arranged by House Manager Butler ations Point More and up to Harry Willis As Only logical Opponent for Dempsay Jack Dempsey will either have to fight a colored fighter or come from the ring, is the general opinion prevailing among the followers of boxing at this time, as there is not a white fighter in the heavyweight division who could give him a close contest, who would be likely to draw a large crowd. Recently Fred Fulton came to town declaring himself to be the best condition and willing to meet the champion. He was taken a tryout at Madison Square Garden on Friday night, January 13th, and made a miserable showing against a boxer with no reasons to championship qualities. With the bursting of the Fulton bubble, the last one of a number of white contenders for the championship is eliminated. The discussion that has been going on in the daily papers as to the possibilities of a Wills-Dempsey bout, has shown that there is a strong sentiment for such a contest in the East and throughout the country. A syndicate in Denver, Col., has offered $100,000 for such a contest, and a new boxing club has secured a lease on the 22nd Regiment armory in this city with the idea of staging a possible championship contest here. Grantland Rice in the New York "Tribune" recently drew an analogy between the case of Jack Dempsey and that of Jim Jeffries, in which he stated that Jeffries won the world's heavyweight championship when he was about the same age as Dempsey, and had to retire because of lack of competition. At that time a dark cloud in the person of Jack Johnson was coming over the pugilistic world, and eventually forced Jeffries from his retirement. He pointed out that the only difference between the case of Jeffries and Dempsey is that while Johnson was younger than Jeffries, Wills is several years older than Dempsey. However that may be, we are sure that Dempsey will eventually have to meet Wills or some other colored fighter, because it is a fact that the best fighters in the heavyweight division today are colored.

FROM HEMORHAGE Joe Hodges, one of the oldest colored actors in the country, died suddenly on Tuesday morning, January 27, at oldick, from a hemorrhage of the brain, supposed to have been beaten in unusual exertions by the New Douglas electric organist at the New Douglas theater of which he was the house funeral was held on Friday, January 20th, from the parlor of Granville O. Paris, undertaker, 151 11st street, the Rev. Richard M. Bolden of the First Emmanuel Church, officiating, Members of the C. V. B. A., and the Dressing Room Club attended in a body. He is survived by the widow, Mrs. Bella Hodges, and for many years they lived on 24 West 140th street. Mr. Hodges was born in Richmond, Va., and has been identified prominently with the stage since 1882. He was organizer of the famous Twilight Quartet, composed of Hodges, Hines, Moage and Martin, and with the passing of Hodges, Moore is the only surviving member of the group. This quartet gained national fame by singing at the funeral of General Ulysses S. Grant.

Sam Jack's Creoles, Black Pattie's Troubadours and William & Walker Co. The leading vaudeville circuits of the country booked the Hodges & Launchmere team for many years. His last stage activities were with the Chu Chin Cow Co., two years ago, but since the opening of the New Douglass Theatre on last New Year's Eve, Hodges had been engaged as the house manager. THE LINCOLN THEATRE The date has been definitely set for the appearance of the Thomas Mott Osborne film classic, "The Right Way." The management of the Lincoln Theatre announces that it will be shown there beginning Thursday. "The Right Way" is a film revelation and tells a highly exciting story of love and adventure. It is a theme of everyday life that deals with the early careers of two young men. Their loves are picturelessly depicted by the camera with the scenes waging fast human interest when the men delve in crime and are in prison. Here actual scenes of life behind the walls are realistically shown, adding unusual interest to the main theme. The film abounds in keen dramatic thrills and rapidly the scenes change from high life and society circles to that of the underworld with all the characters taken from real life. Public and Press proclaim "The Right Way" the master production of the age. It's thearest film treat of the screen. Don't miss it. NEW DOUGLAS THEATRE Another colored production will be shown, as the New Douglas Theatre, beginning Sunday, January 2nd, and running four days. This picture, "By Right of Birth," was produced by the Lincoln Film Company in Chicago. Clarence Brooks is the star, and is supported by an all-star cast. It is said that this production gives a better portrayal of the aims and aspirations of the south of our race than any production yet made by a colored company. It is reported that where ever this The Spartan Braves Who Met Loudi. Thursday Night, January 19th. The image provided is too blurry and low-resolution to accurately recognize any text.

The price at night will be twenty cents for the halcyon and thirty cents for orchestra, with the exception of Sundays and holidays. The same quality of shows will continue—six high class vaudeville acts and a feature moving picture. BY BOB CLAYER Williams and Taylor are at Keith's Royal Theatre, New York City.

Taylor, Mrs. for a number of years has been encouraged to conduct this revival. The concomitantly huge congregation that present was unmistakable evidence of the high spirit of interest that the nurses conducted by her have aroused in the people. She seemed at her this service and the spiritual was high. At the conclusion of the ninety persons were received in the church. At the close of this service the pastor an appeal on behalf of the widow two children left by the janitor, Clement Johnson, who was shot and killed on Thursday night, January 5th, in High street, near Eighth avenue.

First Commannel Church The 11 o'clock service at the First浸院 Church was beautiful and impressive. The bright sunshine the inspiring music by the choir, the sermon by Pastor Bolden, all make the first communion of year, one never to be forgotten. Pastor Bolden's text was found in Psalm 11 and 6. Pastor Bolden showed that discovered this blessed estate with experience. He had observed those who took the counsel and of ungodly persons came to grief and in that the ungodly person had no standing with the true God. Communion was served by Pastor Bolden assisted by Revs. Hogans and Anne. Two persons were taken in full membership in the church. Preceeding the sermon Mra. M. Lonetta Chairman of East Orange, N.

MORE NEGRO OFFICERS All those who are discussing Luther Body and his exploits, seem to be missing the most profitable lesson: We should have more Negro officers, especially in Negro actions. To one who knows colored folk this is perfectly clear in the crimes and the apprehension of Bloody. In the first place, the boy would hardly have been able to beat two colored policemen so their guns, for they would have been better acquainted with him and his kind. And it is entirely possible that he would have had loss of a temptation even to try it. And then, too, maybe Bloody would have had a big loss of gambit in his soul and not so great an objection to quizzing methods if he had been in the hands of colored officers. But the plaintent evidence of all is in Boddy's capture. Those colored citizens would have been much less likely to report on Boddy if they had found it necessary to report to white officers. From what they had been reading in the blessed newspapers, they would have felt sure, that white men would shoot Boddy down on slight provocation. When Magistrate Scott, the colored officer, was effecting the arrest, Boddy made hostile movements as if to take up a weapon. We all know what would have happened if some other people had been on the job then. And the most urgent reason for American psychology is this: If a Negro officer gets killed by a Negro criminal, there is no "race question" but a pure question of crime. Officers will get killed some times, and if colored officers are on the job among colored people, it will prevent the frequent arrangement of the great inter-racial brute breast. WILLIAM PICKENS. New York City. Education in Florida Jacksonville, Fl. - Charles K. Rodchell, of the Florida Memorial College, spoke here at the Tabernacle Baptist Church under auspices of the State Baptist Convention, and declared that Negroes in Florida must become responsible for "Negro Education in Florida."

Brown, president of the General-State Baptist Convention of Florida, and a number of leading educators were among the speakers.
