Storm Destroys Ferris Wheel; Kills 7, Injures Thirty-five Fifty-four people were killed and many score injured when a storm of unusual intensity broke over New York City last Sunday afternoon. It came out of the northwest, by way of the New Jersey Palisades, and swept through the suburban sections to the south of the city, leaving trees uprooted through all the city streets, houses unrooted, windows shattered, ceilings and walls demolished of player, trolley wires, charged with high voltage, dangling in the air, an immediate and vicious danger to life, and telephone and electric light service seriously crippled. Among the dead and wounded were one colored woman killed and fourteen colored men, women and children seriously injured, when a Ferris wheel, operand at the Clason Point Park, Sound View avenue. The Bronx, was blown over by the storm. The wheel, seventy-five feet in diameter, carried sixteen cars, and twelve of these cars were occupied, each car having from one to four persons in it. When the storm struck, the wheel toppled over, some of the people being tossed out into the waters of Long Island Sound, which has its beginning just at this point. Clason Point juts out just at the mouth of the Sound, the East River curving between it and Whitestone, over on Long Island, on the other side. As the wheel fell it crushed a house boat laying at its dock, but the occupants of the boat were not hurt. Hundreds of hands were quickly engaged in the effort of rescuing the people buried beneath the wrecked wheel, and when all were gotten out, it was found that six were dead. The others were rushed to various hospitals and to their homes for treatment. The names of the colored persons who were killed and injured, as given out on Monday, are as follows: White Girl's Strange Tale Caused Death of Negro Boy (Special to The New York Age). Mocksville, N. C.—A most improbable tale, according to investigation, was that told when C. E. Clayton, a white farmer, living about three miles west of Mocksville, shot and killed Alvin Hirson, a Negro, on Friday afternoon, May 26, the shooting being done near Clayton's home. The story told is that Clayton's daughter, 18 years old, was about to become a mother. The young white man who had been keeping her company was naturally suspected as being the seducer. But on the day of the shooting she told her father that some eight months before she was in the woods and Hudson chiroformed her first and then committed an outrage upon her. Clayton immediately armed himself, found Hudson nearby and killed him. Then the "avenging" (?) parent telephoned in to Mocksville for the sheriff. N. A. A. C. P.

On the white girl's charge, made eight months after the alleged assault was committed, the father, taking the law in his own hands, proceeded to execute summary judgment. Succeeding investigations, it is alleged, tend to throw doubt on the girl's story. Many of the white people in the neighborhood make no bones of saying that they doubt the truthfulness of the allegation. Most of them are of the opinion that if the Negro proves to be the father of the unborn child, it was a probable case of willing compliance. It is pointed out that the outrage is charged to have been committed in broad daylight and the girl was wide awake when the alleged assault was committed. $50,000 FOR STUDY OF NEGRO LIFE & HISTORY (Special to The New York Age) Washington, D. C.—$0,000 has been secured by the Association for the Study of Negro Life and History through the efforts of Dr. Carter G. Woodson, director and editor of the Journal of Negro History, $23,000 each was given by the Carnegie Corporation and the Lutra Spinnaker Rockefeller Memorial. This fund is to be used to further research in the field of Negro history and to publish the results of such investigation. In addition to the publication of the magazine, research will be undertaken in the field of the Free Negro Prior to 1601 and in Negro Reconstruction History. For this work several students will be given fellowships in schools having an academic curriculum with data bearing on Negro life and history, these students to be selected by a special committee. The colony work will begin July 1, 1922. In carrying out the purposes of the association, collection is made of nongeological and historical documents, books on history, life and history are established. The Dead. NEW YORK, N.

CURTIS MEMORIAL GIFT TO LINCOLN UNIV. In memory of the late Hon. James L. Curtis, Minister Resident and Counsel General to Liberia, who died at his post of duty in October, 1917, Mrs. Helen Curtis, his widow, presented quite a valuable collection of war souvenirs and African curious to Lincoln University at the recent commencement.

COURT John Slitt, stationer, of 41 East 133rd street, a colored man, was sworn in as foreman of a jury in the Eighth District Court, 121st street and Syllvan place, under Justices Prince and Marks. This, it was said by veteran court attendants, was the first time in the history of the Eighth District that a colored man has been made a jury foreman. The court calendar is congested with negligence cases, listed on gummobile accidents, being on the docket. These cases are constantly on the increase. WOOD GETS 2 YEARS Fred R.

BAR NEGROES FROM WHITE HOTEL GUESTS Tulsa, Otla—Tulsa's restrictive policy with regard to its Negro citizens is brought again into evidence by a police order requiring that Tulsa hotels discharge all Negro employees whose duties brought them into contact with patrons. The storm of criticism which was aroused among the white people, clients of the various hotels, who declared the order to be more of a reflection on the patrons than on the employees, brought about indemnification of the order by Reese Moran, chief of police. "The modification order makes it apply to small transient hotels and to rooming houses, and chief Moran said the action was taken by the police department for moral reasons. It is said that the City Commission will not be able to of Service Film Laboratory, West Corporation Formed to Develop Mr. Method of Motion Photography in NEGRO JURY FOREMAN IN 8TH DIST. COURT John Slitt, stationer, of 41 East 133d street, a colored man, was worn in as a foreman of a jury in the Eighth District Court, 121st street and Sylvan Place, under Justi- tice, Prince and Marks. This, it was said by veteran court attendants, was the first time in the history of the Eighth District that a colored man has been made a jury foreman.

WOOD GETS 2 YEARS IN SING SING PRISON Jeshua B. Wood, real estate dealer, of the J. B. Wood Co., Inc., 2181 Seventh avenue, was found guilty by a jury in the Supreme Court, Part XVII, Justice Ernest I. Edgcomb presiding, on June 8, of withholding $154 from Hilda Dixon who had paid him the money under an agreement by which Wood was to furnish her an apartment in the building at northwest corner of 129th street and Lenox avenue. Wood failed to furnish the apartment or return the money, which was paid to him on June 23, 1921, and Mrs. Dixon had him arrested on November 30, following. Wood then tendered the woman her money, but she refused to accept it and continued the prosecution. C. W. MoDougald was Wood's attorney. He was sentenced on June 10 by Justice Edgcomb to serve two years at hard labor at the State Prison, Sing Sing. This was Wood's second offense, as he had previously pleaded guilty to grand larceny and received a suspended sentence. Counselor JfcDougald states that Wood will appeal the sentence. HOODLUMS INFEST PARK IN STUYVESANT SECTION Much complaint is being made of the conduct of a certain element that frequent the city park at the junction of Fulton street and Stuyvesant avenue Brooklyn. Residents of the neighborhood, both colored and white, declare that a crowd of boys and men, a large number of whom are colored, make it a practice to frequent this park and interfere with young women who are using the park as a recreation place for the children in their charge. The charge is made that these crowds use with utmost liberality all kinds of profane and vulgar language, without regard to the proximity of women and children, and as a result the park is rendered an undesirable locality. As a result of this hoodlumnism, Policecem Dennis Harron was made the target for rocks thrown by a group of these rookies when he attempted to collar the crowd, whom as a leged to be inciting to trouble a crowd of Negroes and a crowd of whites. This boy slipped out of his coat, however, and escaped the officer's grasp. When Harron attempted pursuit, the crowd, alleged to have been led by Douglas Rasherville of 75 Schenectady avenue, followed him, throwing rocks and other missiles. Although the patrolman fired three shots in the air, the man escaped, but Racherville was arrested as leader of the ironing crowd. In court, Magistrate Gelman, because of the good character witnesses appearing for Racherville, who is said to be a clerk, gave him a suspended sentence. In doing so, the judge gave warning that 75 percent of the population Wills Forces Issue; Challenges For Title It is practically certain that Harry Wills, the Negro heavyweight pugilist, will meet Jack Dempsey, present holder of the heavyweight championship title in a New York or New Jersey ring within the next six months, or else the white man's title will be declared vacated and open to competition in New York State with Harry Wills as the first claimant. This follows upon action by the New York State Boxing Commission, on Tuesday, June 13, in accepting a formal challenge from Paddy Mullins, manager of Wills, for a battle between the colored fighter and the champion, the challenge being accompanied by a certified check for $2,500 to bind the proposition. In accepting the challenge and check the Boxing Commission placed its approval upon mixed bouts in New York, settling at once the question as to whether or not such matches would be permitted. An incident of interest, in this connection was the issuing by the Commission of a license to the Velodrome Corporation, of 225th street and Broadway, to hold boxing shows either by day or night. The Velodrome has been referred to many times as the scene of the proposed Dempsey-Wills bout, and the granting of a license to the corporation at this time has peculiar significance. The formal challenge handed to the commission by Paddy Mullins reads as follows: "In accordance with the rules and regulations of the New York State Athletic Commission (the Boxing Commission) I herewith, on behalf of Harry Wills, challenge Jack Dempsey for the heavyweight championship, and enclose herewith a certified check for $2,500 as fortnight covering the said challenge." The Commission issued a statement explaining what would be its procedure in case Jack Dempsey refused to recognize Harry Wills' challenge within a period of six months. The body would then declare the world's heavyweight championship open to competition in this state and would regard Harry Wills as the first claimant. Wills would then be matched with his most logical contender and the winner of that battle would be regarded as the heavyweight champion in New York State. Before the Wills settlement had been received by the Commission, a delegation of colored men, including George Moore, a boxing promoter from Oregon, called and endeavored to ascertain the Commission's attitude in regard to bouts. Moore is concerned in the management of Danny Edwards, a colored bantamweight from the Pacific coast, who has not been able to secure bouts in New York, because, it is alleged, of his color. The Commission's attempt to this delegation was vague and evasive, but its action on the Wills' challenge is regarded as proof that no opposition would be made to mixed bouts conducted according to the rules and regulations prescribed in this state. The following statement from the Commission was given out in connection with the visit of the colored delegation: "The Commission informed these men that there was no match at present scheduled between a colored boxer and a white boxer and that when there was such a match it would follow the usual procedure having to be approved or disapproved—the same process that all boxers have to go through that are scheduled in this state. This will constitute the decision of the Commission on the mixed bout question. In other words, it will show how the Commission stands on this matter." It is reported here that Dempsey has canceled his theatrical engagements and has already begun light training on an estate he recently purchased near Los Angeles, Calif., for his mother. This implies that an agreement has been reached and that the proposed match will be consummated within a short period of time. Springarn Medal for 1921 Is Awarded Mrs.MaryB.Talbert Mary B.

EDITOR HARRY SMITH TO RUN FOR GOVERNOR Columbus, Ohio—Harry C. Smith, editor of the Cleveland Gazette, is an avowed candidate for gubernatorial honors, according to announcement made at expiration of time limit for filing nominations, midnight, Friday, June 9. Nine Republicans have entered the race for a decision at the primaries to be held in August. Editor Smith's entry is not looked upon with perfect equanimity by Harvey C. Smith, present Secretary of State, who is also a candidate for the governor's chair. The Secretary of State issued a formal statement in which he declared that Editor Harry Clay Smith's entrance into the race was another effort of the Secretary's enemies to "confuse the voters of the state," referring to the similarity of names. ial for 1921 Is MaryB.Talbert that the debt was paid off the home of Frederick Douglass, the home resourced and made a shrine in memory of the great Douglass; also because of the fact that she represented the colored winner of America as the International Council of Women held in Norway."

The great industries are open to Negroes upon terms of equality as to pay, working conditions, living conditions, and the chances for advancement are exceptionally good. In the coal industry of the State alone, more than 20,000 Negroes are employed, receiving in wages an average of more than $1,000 each, per year.

No such pictures has been shown or lynching committed or attempted since the passage of these splendid laws. Farm Land Made Available. Openings for business are to be found at every hand and the opportunities for industrious, thrifty, efficient Negroes to get ahead are unlimited, with good returns assured if business is managed properly. Educational Advantages Educational advantages are equal to the best, with good schools running from seven to nine months to be found in every community where there are too or more children, taught by the very best teachers who receive the same pay as other teachers holding the same grade of teachers certificates. The West Virginia Collegiate Institute, the Bluefield Colored Institute, maintain and supported by the State, offer unsurpassed opportunities for advanced education, and the West Virginia Baptist Seminary and College and Storer College, private denominational schools, are edoing splendid work, both in literary and religious training of the Negro youth. All of the State schools are taught and managed by Negro teachers under the supervision of a Negro stage supervisor and the advisory Council Board of Board of Education, composed of Negroes. The State maintains a Tuberculosis Sanitarium at Denmark, Docahontas County, a colored orphan's home at Huntington, and is preparing to erect Negro insane asylum at Maggie, a jail, and blind school at Initue. a girl, and a girl at a girl's industrial school, all to be under the management of Negroes. No Segregation Laws Weste Virginia has never passed any legislation providing for separate cars nor restricting the ballot and Negroes vote in all elections without let or hindrance. They hold twenty-seven appointive positions, under the State government, drawing salaries aggregating more than $450,000 per year; they hold fourteen elective positions in the counties and magisterial districts, including two members of the House of Delegates; fourteen salaried and per diem appointive offices in the counties; eight elective offices in cities and towns; twenty-two appointive offices in cities and towns. Nine Negroes occupy places on party committees to which they were elected by their party associates and three were elected to a party National Convention in 1920, two in the State of large and one from a professional district. Drastic laws have been enacted against lynching and against the showing of pictures or plays in the theaters of the State which harmfully reflect the race (such as the "Birth of Students From and Colleges I Institutions of Learning In Send Out Thousands of Have Trained Minds, Students From Universities and Colleges Finish Course 5TH ANNIVERSARY AT B.

For many years it has been very difficult for Negroes to buy farms and homes in the most desirable sections of the State because of the high prices demanded; especially has this been true of the best farming sections. When the 1920 Census report appeared showing that there were only 504 Negro farm owners in the State, a decrease of 204 during the past ten years, several of the leaders became alarmed and began to look about for good farm land which could be purchased by Negroes on the easy payment plan. A group of white financiers had purchased 10,000 acres of Virginia land in the blue grass section of Pocahontas County, W. Va., and held an option on 17,000 acres more in the same section. This land is located in the best farming and cattle raising section of the State and it was the purpose of the purchasers to cut it into farms of from 50 to 100 acres and sell it to white natives and foreigners. The writer and two representative Negroes, approached the representatives of the owners of this acreage with the proposition of cutting the land into ten acre farms and cut up lots in a proposed town site and give Negroes the opportunity of buying upon the easy payment plan. It was with great effort, after many conferences, that the owners were convinced that Negroes would purchase farm land; but, finally, Jas. S. Kahle, Bluefield, and J. E. Woodson, Princeton, representing the owners, agreed to give Negroes a chance to get this valuable land upon the easy payment plan. New Town Site Developed Surveyors were put to work, the town of Watoga was laid off, the 100-00 acres were laid off into ten acres farms and the Watoga Land Association offered Negroes this valuable land with a lot in the proposed town. The promise that Negroes would buy farm land is being kept. To date more than 200 West Virginia have purchased from ten acres to 100 acres and nearly 100 are cleaning up and cultivating their tracts. This land is the best farming and grazing section of the State, a railroad runs through the entire length of it with a regular stop at Watoga. It is touched by an important State road which will be hard surfaced at an early date, it is near to several large and small cities and towns, and within six hours rule of three of the larger cities of the estate. It is within twenty miles of the White Sulphur Springs resort and there is a ready and convenient market for all of the produce the farmers have to sell. In Universities Finish Course In Many Southern States of Negro Youth Who, Hands and Hearts The most noted graduate of the college, it is said, is Dr. Ernest E. Just, professor of physiology at Howard university, Washington, D. C. He was a winner of the Spingarn medal for distinguished discoveries in biology. Dr. Just attended this commencement Dr. R. S. Wilkinson has been president of this school for 11 years, but he has served as professor since the school was established and both races admire his leadership ad the excellent way he has managed his students. Under Dr. Wilkinson the school has grown to a remarkable degree. The trustees have provided modern buildings, good equipment and extraordinary facilities. Dr. Wilkinson was called to the presidency of Lincoln University, Jefferson City, Mo., for which $600,000 was recently appropriated by the legislature of that state. He refused to accept the call because his interests are interlocked with the youth of his race in his native state. Dr. Wilkinson has provided the summer session so that hundreds of teachers may go there each summer for six weeks and study. Last summer the dormitories at the college were crowded with teachers who attended the summer session, and already the college has made arrangements to accommodate over 700 teachers on the campus this summer. The summer session begins June 12 and closes July 21. VA. THEOL. SEMINARY ENDS ITS 94TH SESSION Lyndhurst. Va.

SCHOOL Prentiss, Miss.—Mprincipal J. E. Johinson of the Prentiss Normal and Industrial Institution at Prentiss, Miss, reports a successful year for the school which closed its fifteenth session Thursday, May 25. The exercises extended over the week and were attended largely by both colored and white people. A class of twenty-six was graduated from the grammar school and five completed the normal course and trade work. The Commencement address was delivered by Dr. W. F. Yarbough of Hattiesburg, who spoke on the subject, "Education in Making of Life." The school had assembled a good exhibit of work done in the domestic science department, shops, etc. Friends were shown over the farm on which students work their way when they are unable to pay. The trustees held their annual meeting, with the following present: ex-Governor A. H. Longino; Leon Tyrone, banker, Silver Creek; Rev. James M. Lewis, Collins; W. H. Livingston, Prentiss; R. S. Grossey, assistant supervisor of Negro schools; W H. Lanier, Jackson, V. M. Sealan of Hastiesburg was absent because of urgent business engagements. Principal Johnson and the treasurer, R. C. Williams, cashier of the Bank of Blountville, made their annual reports, which were adopted by the board. Enrollment for the past year reached 364, representing thirteen counties in the state, and a few from Louisiana and Alabama. It required a little over $14,000 to operate the institution. $1,200 was contributed by the county, $3,500 by student labor, and the remainder was given in money and material by friends. The trustees authorized the erection of two buildings during the vacation, one for religious purposes, and other an academic hall. Much of the material is on the ground, and carpenters will begin work at once in order to have both ready for fall opening. The influence of the school is felt throughout the southern part of the state. Its students and graduates are filling many of the public schools in both literary and industrial work. W. H. Livingston has this to say: "As county prosecuting attorney of Jefferson Davis county, I have watched with interest the influence exerted by the Prentiss Normal and Industrial Institute. It is gratifying to say that no one who has ever attended the school has come before me for the commission of crime, and it is seldom that those who come under its influence, in any way are brought before me."

A remarkable feature of the dedication of the Lincoln Memorial at Washington on Decoration Day was the inclusion of Confederate veterans as honored participants in the ceremony. The New York Herald correspondent referred to this part of the proceedings as follows: At the bottom of the steps leading to the open chamber in which sits the brooding Lincoln were representatives of the Grand Army that he summoned to fight for the emancipation of the black race from the bonds of alavery. Some of these veterans themselves were black, gray of hair and bowed with age. Seated among them were two or three women who saw service in the Civil War and struggled bravely against the exactions of age. Divided only by an aisle were three rows of Confederate veterans in their gray uniforms, matching in age and feebleness the men against whom they fought sixty years ago, but all now on amiable and even affectionate terms. These were the central figures of the dedication of the memorial to the Commander in Chief for and against whom they fought. The Stars Stripes proudly fluttering in a refreshing breeze was the only flag the Old Boys in Blue or Gray saluted as they came to attention several times during the ceremonies. In addition to this unprecedented honor paid to former rebels, who sought to destroy the Union, and many of them doubtless aided and rejoiced in the assassination of the President who loved the Union, a President of a later day, Warren G. Harding, in his address complimented the section that fought accession. Referring to Lincoln, he said: How he would have been exalted by the chorus of the Union after "the mystic chords" were "touched by the better angels of our nature!" How it would comfort his great soul to know that the States in the South and join sincerely, in ignoring him, and have twice since his day joined, with all the fervor of his own great heart, in defending the flag. How it would soften his anguish to know that the South long since came to realize that a vain ammonia robbed it of its sweet shame and potent friend when he pruned and stricken, when he toratization! How with his love of humane and justice, this agape of humanity would have found his servants tunfold repaid to see the hundred millions to whom he bequeathed reunion and maternality, giving of their sons and daughters and all their fortunes to halt the armed march of autocracy and preserve civilization, even as he preserved union! We would like to agree with President Harding and the other Republican Presidents before him, who have indulged in this rhetorical laudation of the South and the Confederacy, but we are unable to find any logical grounds for it. If the defeated rebels of the South had accepted the results of the war in good faith, and recognized the changes wrought in the status of the Negro by Emancipation and citizenship, the case would be different. As it is, while the North ended the war and turned to pursuits of peace, the South has continued its course of nullifying by force and fraud and trickery, all the results of the war. It has created a bogie of the Negro, aided by an uneasy conscience, by which the demagogues who pose as statesmen, like Tom Watson and others, can manipulate the voters like dumb driven cattle. The part the South has taken in defending the flag, especially in the World War, was to fill the ranks of the draft with as many black soldiers as possible, so that the whites might remain at home. And the injustices and humiliations practiced upon these black soldiers by the whites of the South, both before and after their service to the country, have not half been told. President Harding, like his predecessors, may speak as many soft words to the South as he pleases, but no one is fooled thereby, especially not the white South. Unreconstructed and unrepentant, the South still follows after the demagogues whose only cry is "white supremacy" and "keep the Negro down." President Harding may be soiling himself into the belief that by cajoling the South with soft words he is making a breach into the wall of Bourbon Democracy, but no electoral votes have been gathered by that sort of sophistry. What the South needs is a few hard grenades of law enforcement and constitutional government. Not soft soap but hard facts. RIGHT MAN FOR GOVERNOR. RIGHT MAN FOR GOVERNOR. In view of the reluctance of Governor Nathan L. Miller to announce his readiness to accept a renomination, it would be well for the Republican leaders to consider the availability of either candidates for the nomination next Fall. While Mr. Miller possesses undeniable elements of strength as a state executive, there are also certain weaknesses in his position, which were pointed out in a recent issue of The Ace. The political situation in New York State, as in the country at large, demands a strong candidate. if the Republicans expect to carry the election. Symptoms of discontent with party policies and its sins of omission and commission, both in Congress and without, are too strong to be disregarded. If the party desires to maintain its representation in Congress, as well as the control of the State government, it should pick a man of strong character and progressive tendencies for its standard bearer in the State campaign. Such a candidate, embodying these requisites, as well as others quite as valuable for parry success, would be found in Colonel William Hayward, who now occupies the responsible position of United States District Attorney for the Southern District of New York. Colonel Hayward's legal ability and force of character were clearly demonstrated in connection with the Public Service Commission in New York City, of which he served as head until he volunteered for the World War. In that conflict he commanded one of the best regiments of volunteers that won an enviable record surpassed by none, namely the Old Fifteenth Infantry of New York. As a prosecuting officer for the United States, he has shown the same aggressive qualities that characterized the war record, of his regiment. Colonel Hayward would be a strong candidate for Governor of New York, because he is known to be in favor of a square deal for all men, regardless of race or color. The District of Columbia Branch of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People has adopted a set of strong resolutions protesting against this act of Jim-Crowism and asking for the removal of Colonel Sherrill from his office. The resolutions contain the following expressions: Of course, if Colonel Sherrill had offered any such insult to any other group in the nation, the chances for holding his job would not be worth three cents in Russian money. · SENATOR BORAH AND THE ANTI-LYNCHING BILL. Senator Willia mE. Borah was reported in the Monday papers as coming out unequivocally against the present "clanor for laws." Senator Borah's views were called forth by an editorial in the Boston "Transcript" on the proposed anti-lynching law. He is quoted as saying that editors and members of Congress who favored the transfering of powers vested by the Constitution in states to the Federal Government were lawless brothers of those who under more trying circumstances joined the mob and took the law into their own hands. So far as this applies to the anti-lynching law there are two statements to which we must take exception. A NEW RACE NAME The time honored fad of finding a new name to pin upon the American of African descent still continues with unabated zeal. The latest attempt is reported by the Detroit Independent as follows: Editor George M. Smith of the Michigan State News, is arousing considerable interest by championing a new name for the race. The editor states a proper name for us in "Ethican." Why should Senator Borah refer to the "trying circumstances" of those who join the mob and take the law into their own hands? It appears to us that the "trying circumstances" are those of the poor victim who is deprived of his constitutional right of a trial by due process of la wwhen accused of crime. A reference to the "trying circumstances" under which those labor who join the mob sounds very much like sympathy with the sentiment of those southern Congressmen who on the floor of the House of Representatives when the Dyer Bill was being debated with choked voices declared what a terrible thing it was for them to have to burn a Negro alive at the stake who had committed the one great crime. He defines "Ethican" as follows: "Ethican"—An American citizen of the United States, of Ethiopian descent, commonly, though incorrectly called "Negro," being a combination of "Eth," the first tautile in Ethiopia, and "Jean," the last syllable in American. This reminds us of the white novi- list, who had one of his characters express her sentiments on racial remem- ciature, as follows: "When you like me, call me colored; when you hate me, call me nigger; but for Gawd's sake don't call me Afro-American." The same popular distaste would probably apply to the various terms of "Afri- merican." "Liberian" and this late sug- gestion, "Ethnian." The present tendency to capitalise "Negro" and treat it as a proper noun, as practiced by such New York papers as the Nation, the Globe, the World and the illustrated Daily News, has done much to commemorate the As to the constitutionality of the Anti-Lynching Bill, Senator Borah, if he is correctly quoted, has publicly confessed himself as believing that under the Constitution the Federal government by due process of law when accused of crime. A reference to the crime, against trial and execution by the mob. According to his construction of the Constitution American citizens in these states where lynching prevails find themselves in the constitutionality of being students in states which refuse crime, and citizens of a government which confesses its inability to do so. Those who deny warrant in the Constitution for the Federal government to protect its citizens within its own borders are not looking at the Constitution itself but are lost in a maze of judicial decisions on the Constitution, decisions which in the case of the is powerless to protect its citizens within its borders accused of and sophistry and given for the express purpose of modifying, lininging, and even nullifying that Amendment. In another issue we will consider more fully the question raised by Senator Borah as to the rationality of the Anti-Lynching Bill. TEXAS COMPLACENCY. The last three weeks have from the various sections of the Bill. These comments follow which took place during the life the northern papers were hotrising over Texas and one or two papers expressed similar it. It was left for a newspaper of whose disadvantages with the whole matter with complaint. It was in Texas that most of the many of them by burnings at the to be most ashamed about the (Texas) "Eagle" recently had. "Texas has gone amu alarm. The good old Lone a few more burnings at the quietness of mid-summer with the year the fires in the city brighter in Texas and the hanging limbs always have. Within the next month they by burnings and hangings devote itself to business as is temporary and seasonal." This may not be intended levity and wit in the editorial paper that can make the suffer levity and the community which the vencer of civilization a deg tung point. The last three weeks have brought forth different comments from the various sections of the country on the Dyer Anti-Lynchings Bill. These comments followed the terrible record of Lynchings which took place during the last three weeks in May. Most of the northern papers were horrified at the wave of savagery which swept over Texas and one or two other states. Some of the southern papers expressed similar sentiments. It was left for a newspaper in Texas—Texas, the comparison of whose disadvantages with hell has become a proverb—to treat the whole matter with complacency which is incomprehensible. It was in Texas that most of these horrible Lynchings took place, many of them by burnings at the stake, and it is Texas that ought to be most ashamed about the Lynching evil, and yet the Wichita (Texas) "Eagle" recently had the following to say editorially: "Texas has gone amuck but there is no cause for alarm. The good old Lone Star will come to itself after a few more burnings at the stake, and the customary quietness of mid-summer will return. Just at this time of the year the fires in the city squares always burn a little brighter in Texas and the surburban trees with over-hanging limbs always have unpleasant duties to perform. Within the next month the number of crimes punishable by burnings and hangings will decrease, and Texas will devote itself to business as usual. The present excitement is temporary and seasonal." This may not be intended as complacency, it may pass for levity and wit in the editorial room of the "Eagle." But a newspaper that can make the sufferings of humanity the subject for levity and the community which can accept it reveal underneath the veneer of civilization a degeneracy which is reaching the rotating point. TRICKERY AT TULSA. Tulsa is the town in Oklahoma which carried infamous motorcycle over a year ago, by issuing a riot in which many of the Negro inhabitants were slain and their homes, business places and churches destroyed by fire. It was particularly shown at the time that the city authorities cynivated at it, they did not actually take part in this destruction of life and property. When the Negroes, with undaunted courage, tried to rebuild on the sites formerly occupied by them, every effort was made to hamper their progress and to locate them further out of town. The section they had occupied had become so valuable as to excite the curiosity of the whites of the town. The courts decided against this effort to rob the Negroes of their land, to other measures were adopted to hamper their progress. A recent article reached how a police order in that Tulsa hotel charge of Negro employees whose clients lobbied them in contact with guests. This was later modified by the chief of police to so as to apply only to rooming houses and small transient hotels. It was further stated that the City Commission will soon enact an ordinance to regulate the employment of Negroes in all public places. The pre-text upon which such discrimination is based was given as "imoral reasons." It might better have been stated as "unmoral reasons," as greed and avarge, envy, hatred and malice are at the location of this action. What the winters of Tulsa failed to gain by incendiarism and murder, they are seeking to accomplish by trayness in the form of law. The courts will probably decide against such a measure as the one proposed. THE PURSUIT OF PLEASURE. The need for periodic relaxation and occasional diversion for the workers and students has always been admitted by those who have studied the workings of the human machinery, both physically and mentally. The old adage that "all work and no play makes Jack a dull boy" contains the germ of a lasting truth. On the other hand, all play and no work at all is not good for any boy, or girl either. There are a number of Jacks, with their accompanying Jills, who evidently believe that the world is their playground and that if there is work to be done, they let George, or some other fellow, do it. The pursuit of pleasure seems to have become an obsession with a change number of this class of people, and the results are neither beneficial to themselves nor to the community. It is because of this increasing number of pleasure seekers that the number of cabarets has increased to such an alarming extent in Harlem. Once upon a time a modest number of the resorts maintained under this name catered to the entertainment of the community by furnishing food and beverages, mingled with music, or song and dance numbers, to put it more plainly. The cabaret has multiplied in numbers and changed in character from a restaurant to an apartment. Resorts of this nature are found tucked away on the second and third floors of flat houses, where only the initiated pleasure seekers can find them. This removes many of the restraints that prevailed when these phones were more publicly located and has not improved the tone of their entertainment. THE NEW YORK AGE, SATURDAY, JUNE 17, 1922 VIEWS and REVIEWS By James Walden Johnson, Contributing Editor. JIM-CROWISM AT THE DEDICATION OF THE LINCOLN MEMORIAL. Under the sectional administration of Woodrow Wilson colored people arrived at the point where they had to look upon Jim-Crowism as one of the regular functions of government. Signs were put up in department buildings prohibiting colored clerks and employees from using this washroom or that toilet; colored clerks were segregated and placed behind screens; colored citizens were barred out of the public restaurants in government buildings. Indeed, Jim-Crowism was as rampant in the government buildings at Washington as it ever was in the State of Mississippi. In fact, we got so that nothing in the way of Jim-Crowism under the Southern Democratic administration surprised us. But what must the colpred people think when they learn that Jim-Crowism of the gossest sort was practiced at the recent dedication of the Lincoln Memorial. Nothing more humiliating or insulting was ever planned or carried out in the eight years of Southern domination at the capital. Moreover, the occasion, the dedication of a national memorial to the great Emancipator, an occasion upon which the President spoke fair words inspired, by the life of Lincoln and upon which an eminent son of the race which was in so great a degree a beneficiary of Lincoln's life was a participant, made this incident of Jim-Crowism still the more glaring. When colored people presented their tickets for the exercises they found that the seats within easy distance of the speakers had all been reserved for white people while back of those seats and roped off from them were seats reserved for colored people. It is reported that these seats were about a block away from the Memorial itself, back in the grass and weeds. The seats arranged for white people were chairs and those for colored people benches without backs. Most of the colored people who held tickets, when they found out they were being ushered into this pen, refused to sit down and left the exercises. The whole affair, as it should, has aroused the colored people of Washington and they have gone after the scalp of Lieutenant-Colonel Charles O. Sherrill, Superintendent of Public Buildings and Grounds. Colonel Sherrill exhibits a great deal of pained surprise over the attitude taken by the colored Washingtonians. In reply to a letter of protest addressed to him by a prominent colored lawyer Colonel Sherrill said: "I regret very much to hear that the seating of a number of colored people next to each other has accrued the reverent memorial in your letter. Colored people were by no means restricted to the section to which you refer, and I can see no reason why any colored person assigned a seat in this section should object so strenuously to sitting next to other colored people. Observation might just as readily have been made by the newspaper people that they were all seated together in a similar section, or by the members of Congress that they were seated in a section exclusively for them." In offering such a line of reasoning Colonel Sherrill shows himself either stupid or insincere. We are inclined to think it is due to insincerity, because the argument which he uses is the old stock argument intended to confuse colored people when they protest against segregation. Certainly, colored people do not object to sitting next to each other, but they do and have a right to object to being herded off to one side as though they were parishs. If there had been no imposed segregation at the Memorial exercises Colonel Sherrill would have found that the colored people who attended would naturally have seated themselves in groups. What they resented was the compulsory segregation which could not carry with it anything less than a badge of imputed inferiority. Any colored person who does not feel this resentment under similar circumstances is either ignorant or a fool, and any colored person who says he does not resent it is either a fool or a hypocrite, more likely the latter. "The act of segregation by the Superintendent of Public Buildings and Grounds is further aggravated by the fact that it was perpetrated under the administration of national affairs by the political party through which Abraham Lincoln achieved the things which made his name a symbol of freedom and gave to that party its title of 'the party of freedom.' It would be a rude awakening and a painful disillusionment to us to realize that this party was approving and following a practice which was an incident of the institution of chattel slavery. Such a realization, in the case of a self-respecting people, could result only in severing of ties which until now have bound us to that party." he brought forth different comments on the country on the Dyer Anti-Lynching, saved the terrible record of Lynchings last three weeks in May.

But a new setings of humanity the subject for which can accept it reveal underneath generacy which is reaching the rote- many pool rooms in Harlem, which furnish an easy excuse for the idling away of time. Hours that might be devoted to the acquisition of useful knowledge or spent in beneficial exercise in the open air, are consumed in badly ventilated rooms and unprofitable conversation. Then the vending of liquor in drug stores, it may be on physician permits, or it may be not, is another practice that aids in the demoralization consequent on the pervasive pursuit of pleasure. Those familiar with the liquor question in Harlem say that even if the drug stores confined their sales to legitimate purposes, the supply would be maintained by the delicatessen and stationery stores. All this feverish pursuit of pleasure tends to the infraction of the law and the demoralization of the individuals engaged in it. There is need for a return to tenure of living and thinking. The pursuit of pleasure, however steadily kept up, does not lead to happiness, nor even to contentment. If the individuals who frequent the cabarits in search of spicy entertainment, or ride away spicy hours in the pool rooms, would experience the satisfaction due to performing a hard day's work, they would find greater rest in the relaxation following that accomplishment. Discussion should be the reward earned by the performance of a duty in order to be truly enjoyed. The pursuit of pleasure should be assumed by the alternation of proper periods of useful exertion in some constructive work. There should be fewer cabarits and pool rooms and more business establishments run by the race at Harlem. ILLNESS CAUSE OF POVERTY. An official of the Association for Improving the Condition of the Poor recently stated in a letter to a local health organization, that ninety per cent of the inmay expended by the association goes to relieve poverty that is the direct result of sickness. He summed up the results of his experience by saying: "Practically all poverty is the result of illness, directly or indirectly." This emphasizes the necessity for the adoption of the rarerous preventive measures urged upon the community to ward off attacks of prevalent diseases. Sickness is the wage earner's most dreaded for. An attack of illness or an accident may cripple the wage earner and plunge a whole family into poverty in a brief period. Most disease is due to a violation of nature laws or the disregard of sanitary precautions. The serious consequences of illness should accuse the sensible worker to take the greatest precautions against jeopardizing his health and the wellbeing of his family by incurring needless exposure to disease or risking his health by self-indulgence. With proper food and clothing and the observance of the laws of hygiene and sanitary housing, most forms of disease can be kept at a distance. Hard work helps to keep a man in proper condition, if fooled by sufficient rest periods and wholesome food. But late hours and indulgence in excessive beverages will not help this capacity for resisting disease. Workers in many industries are now insured against suffering money loss from accidents under the State compensation laws, but the safeguard against disease is largely dependent upon the healthiest. If adversity is taken living and sanitary surroundings ness may be avoided and the world poverty kept from the door. Under the heading of "Some Think About," the Dallas Express cused the necessity of providing tunities for the hundreds of young and women of the race now ushered out into the world at commu- ment time. It says: The proposition is squarely up to Without business houses, mercantile establishments, banks, etc., operated cording to modern methods we always be beggars and our furnish times will always be controlled by who furnish our financial support. There is not a state in where ventures owned by us ciently operated cannot succeed. It is not a city in which there enough idle Negro capital to operate business ventures which furnish gainful employment trained young people, increase financial well being of stockhouses become a thing of pride to the large. Why do we wait? Why wait we be mourn our unfortunate claim that we of all men are unmiserable? We possess the ability at least one of our greatest deeds. Why should we care not to help we can do otherwise? Let us think in terms of the of our trained young people, to the extent of trying to give opportunity to use the training they receive. Our failure now own fault. It is well to stimulate thought on proposition. The problem of friving opportunities for our trained graduate to practice their vari- nings is squarely up to the task. I get busy in solving it. According to Solomon J. Plaatze, editor from South Africa, racial tolerance under the Boers and Boers is worse than in the Southern part of the United States. At a recent congress held in Washington, Plaatze made an address which the respondent of the Kentucky Association referred to as an eyepener. And other things the speaker was quoted saying: "The whites of the southern states who are said to be the worst of lappers in the world will not permit to eat in their hotels, but they have objected to you building your comforts and eating with your own. In South Africa they will not be in their hotels nor will they permit to build hotels of our own and they want to eat at all we must be told to eat in their kitchen, and look for pans." And this is the sort of elaboration that the enlisted Europeans are posing upon the native Africans in their own land. RACE MIGRATION GOOD FOR SOME, BUT NOT ALL. Not infrequently we hear at all by some member of the army cannot make an difference to the South on account of the dish. The Negro will find him in the face whenever True and it is true to less extent. On the other hand, honest is a difference in the way the dice is handled beyond the Maker Dixon line and north of the Owner to that south of it. For instance in the states of the North, East and West color pres- ence is usually penalized according whereas in the South it is not When one the Negro, North the white man into the court of discrimination, that same white is not inclined to repeat the im- second time; and, moreover, the tence which this white man rule against, because of his racial pres- serves as a healthful lesson to of his tribe. The other day, in the state of the famity John Brown or Oswego in Kansas, one Gerald Brown doubted a redemption squatter from Texas, or other Southern locality, who must a tenant at latemore, refused to seize the colored attorneys, William Bradley and William Harrison of Topeka, cause of their race and color. The colored men appealed to the county attorney to issue a warrant against the proprietor of the case. The county attorney also appealed with prejudice, refused to do the lawyers, not to be outside returned Topeka and filed complaint with State Attorney General's office against the county attorney. As a result of this action, the attorney General insisted that the attorney should issue a warrant to arrest wi Gerald Brown, the owner of the cafe. It was done without delay and Brown was made to pay for his prejudice. Now, if this instance had occurred anywhere in the South, the result have been just the reverse, to wit, Negro would have had to suffer the white man for derisbing the justice, instead of the latter beingished for it. If it is good for other race girls in the United States to migrate scatter in different sections of the country, it is likewise good, for the Negro. We believe, therefore, it would well for those members of the race who may be so disposed and are to move, to do so. It will, per se, prove to be a good venture for them, and, in the end for those who compelled to remain here in the country they are not financially get away, at least for the present. There are thousands of the race ever, who are able financially and wise to leave the South and do what they intend to sojourn here a little longer. For as one in his travels, before the Volstead Act went into effect, nationally was wont to see on a first board, in full view of the dow, the following words, adorn a certain brand of whiskey: "There is a season, for it the tive of its quality) likewise do there is a very good reason why of us shall remain in the South for present, at least, despite some of a drying room with immense wheels ten to fifteen feet in diameter, around which the wet film is wound, and there are large hot air pipes which emit the evenly temperatured drying agency as the big wheels revolve, each driven by its own electric motor. There is a complete small printing office, with its Chandler-Price jobber, run by an electric motor, where the sub-titles, etc., used in the films are printed. There is a splendidly equipped machine shop, with modern facility for taking care of the fine and delicate apparatuses, and there is the assembling room where the film is cut and put together into reels, this work being done by girls. And in this connection it might be hinted that Mr. Jones intends making openings for girls of the race who can qualify in competition with other girls. It is not to be a matter of sentiment—no giving a chance because of race identity—but will be an opportunity for girls of the race despite color or any other condition save that of merit and efficiency. Then there is a projection room where the completed film is thrown on the screen for examination. The plant is expected to begin operation this week. The machinery is not all in place; the electricians are still running wires and testing dynamics; but negotiations are practically concluded whereby the company will open with a contract for the development of the film of a picture that will run way above a million feet of celluloid negative and prints, and there will be from 150 to 200 people employed from the start. The first operation of the new company will be the developing and printing of film for companies that do only photography and have no laboratory. Peter Jones, president and general manager, a colored man, is in full charge of the operating plant. And it is love of the work that actuates him, not the tangible gold which now seems to be awaiting his grasp at the foot of the rainbow. In The Realm of Music By Lucien H.

On Christmas Sunday night, December 25, 1921, Arthur Rudolph Grant organist-choirmaster of Salem M. E. Church, West 133rd street, the Rev F. A. Cullen, pastor, was stricken with illness, immediately after the evening service, with its elaborate musical program, had ended. That illness necessitated two major operations, performed at the Bloomer Washington Sanitarium, and Mr. Grant has been confined to his room and bed almost every moment since he was stricken, nearly six months ago. Last Sunday, I am gold, he was taken out for a short airing in a nearby park. attractive photo enlargements of the various members of Mona Hume's home cost, which were made specially for lobby display at the Theatre to aid in exploitation of the Ralph Ince pro- which is playing there this week, are the handwork of none of our own organization photographer, Peter Jones.

He is now located in his new quarters at the studio which he has fixed up along original ideas of his benefit of the uninitiated and for the reader who has not visited might be remarked that the Capitol Theatre is said to be the moving motion picture theatre in the world. And of course it goes that the Fifth avenue photographers must be at the top of the . And now it has come to me that on this Thursday night, June 15, a benefit has been arranged for Mr. Grant, to be held in Salem Church auditorium, the program under supervision of Ramsey's Musical and Social League.

A weak imperfectly developed 'still' means death in his office. The people simply will not come if the 'stills' do not hold their attention. And it is in this particular niche of the business that Peter Jones has won and established a real fame. In his ballet work Moth, Mr. Jones has pursued a steady, indisputable path of study and invention. A great part of his time was spent in a studio where he was employed by the Matrene and Moffett studios. He entered the motion picture end through Rothacker. Mr. Glass has his private studio at Kansas City, Mo, but he is also at the head of the department of piano instruction at Qindian College, Kansas City, Kansas. Easterners, myself among the number, have not heard. Mr. Glass play, but he has a reputation in the West of being a brilliant and worthwhile performer on the piano forte.

There is one room fitted up for the development of photography. The Jones' idea is said to be far in advance of any other now being used. The two principal processes in use by the photographers entail the use of color screens through which projected to the sensitized plate, and it is necessary that the plate is developed and double printing.

Mason county leads with 243 boys. These clubs are operated under joint control of the Alabama Polytechnic Institute, the State Board of Agriculture and the United States Department of Agriculture, through the extension service and county agency work. These boys have planted their corn plots and are giving personal attention to the cultivation. They are also personally feeding their frogs, many of which are pur bred. The boys are instructed in modern methods by the county agents. Each boy is required to keep accurate records and make reports to the agents at the end of each year.

The general opinion of readers and reviewers seem to make out of Birthright a straightout discussion of the Negro situation. Now for me to come forward and deny such a construction is rather futile, because if I could not put what I meant in the book, it is hardly worth while to write letters afterwards and try to explain it." "But since you have been good enough to ask me just what I did mean, I will say at once that I had not the slightest intention of taking a pessimistic view of what we call the Negro question."

What I was trying to do was to keep strictly within the psychology of one particular person, an idealist and a philosopher, who simply must get his theory and practice together. Those are hard things to keep hitched in a team no matter what color a man may be, and all of us who think at all do some very remarkable reasoning in the effort. "I am aware—now that it is written and published—that the book will always be viewed as a generalization. If any colored person should become discouraged from the book, no one will be more sincerely sorry than I. All Negroes are not alike. Some have administrative capacities and some are artistic and can create mentally but not through material. I chose the latter class as a type for my hero, because to me, his tragedy is the keenest of all human sufferings.

Buenos Aires, Argentina—Antonio Rosas, a Negro who is reputed to have been born 132 years ago in the African Congo, is still carrying a living in Buenos Aires as a medicine man and ticket seller. He was not too old to put up a fight when three men held him up and robbed him recently but told a reporter he would have made a better showing if he had not "taken a drop too much." Antonio does not, yet believe in prohibition. Antonio claims to have been captured in the Congo when a child by French slave traders. The French ship on which he adn other Negroes were placed was pursued and captured by an English vessel and taken to Madeira. He was brought to Argentina at the age of eight.

For Twenty-Three Years With Manager McGraw of the New York Giants Baseball Team, Died in Boston, June 8. PAGE SIX Edward Mackall, who, since 1899, has been trainer of baseball players with John McGraw, manager of the New York Giants, of the National League. died in Boston on Thursday June 8, from double pneumonia after a brief illness. The colored trainer wa staken all the week previous, while the Giants were playing a series with the Boston Braves, but his condition was not regarded as serious. However, McGraw immediately sent for Mrs. Mackall, who, with her husband, lived at 64, of Kokusko street, Brooklyn, and she hastened to her husband's bedside. It was deemed advisable not to move the sick man, so when the New York team finished its Boston engagement, Mr. Mackall was left Boston under the care of his wife, with the most skillful physicians and nurses in attendance. The mild attack developed into double pneumonia and his death followed. The body was brought to New York on Friday and the New York Baseball Club took complete charge of the funeral arrangements. At the funeral service, died at Bender Funeral Chapel, 851 Amsterdam avenue, on Saturday evening, Manager John McGraw, his secretary, and several members of the Giants team were present. Among others present were: George Burns, a former Giant but now with the Cincinnati Reds, the entire team of the Batahach Giants, and a number of other well known baseball players. The Heram Lodge No. 4, F., and A, M., of which the deceased was a member, conducted a Lodge of Sorrow over the body, under the leadership of Grand Master of the State of New York, David W Parker. After a short enquiry by Charles W. Anderson a fitting organ selection by Mr. Christian Dears Hairis, and the singing of his favourite hymn, "Mide With Me!" by Worshipful Master Charles Thiage of the Heram Lodge, the body was sent to his home in Baltimore where it was buried by the side of his mother on Sunday afternoon. Mr. Mackall was a trainer at the John Hopkins Academy in northeast when he became connected with Mackenzie McGraw at that time with the Baltimore Orioles. When M. McGraw came to New York in 1902 he being Mackail with him, "Fidelite" as he was known to every leisure leaser and to many of the regular attendants at the Polo Grounds, was on the most popular attacks of the club and was well liked by everyone. He trained McGraw, committed to society, and the teamman committed to keeping the team in the best position and associate. Ed Mackall, the Negro trainer of the Giants, who died last week, was a credit to his people. The master of courtesy, cheerfulness and thoughtfulness he had to an extent which made him popular with those with whom he came in contact, and in addition he was loyal and proficient. His untimely passing is a matter to deep regret. In "An Appreciation," Frank Graham of the New York Sun, wrote as follows: The death of Ed Markall in Boston was tragic news, not only to John McGraw and the Giant players, but to newspapermen who became acquainted with him in the course of their ramblings with the team Markall not only was an efficient trainer, but a wizard at handling the eighth baggage. He was above all, a kindly, courteous gentleman Like Gunga Din, he was "white, clean, white, insider." He served faithfully and well, and his passing brings sadness to all who knew him. He will be sorely missed, not only by the Giants of the present day, but by men like Arthur Fletcher, Larry Doley, George Burns, Walter Holke and Fred Merkle, taken by the fortunes of baseball, to other fields. To them he was not only trainer but guide, philosopher and friend. The dean of New York baseball writers, Sam Grane of the New York Journal expressed himself in the following tribute: Word was received by the New York club officials that Ed Markall, the colored trainer of the Giants, died in Boston yesterday morning. The news came as a shock to Manager McGraw and his players. Markall had been with the team for more than a dozen years, having also been with the manager when the latter was head of the Baltimore American League club. Ed was a favorite with the players he had been associated with. Ed Markall was loyal and devoted to the Giants and their success. He was a model trainer and did his full share as such toward the Giants winning many contests. He will be sadly missed by McGraw, Giant players and by the art department. He is constant companion and assistant to McGraw, who has helped S For Twenty Years Trainer, With the New York Giants, national League Baseball Club—Died June 8 in Boston After Short Attack of Double Pneumonia. regret his sudden death more than the writer. At present Jess Burkett is acting as trainer of the Giants.

AT LAFAYETTE THEATRE As unusually difficult show, "Business Before Treasure" is being presented at the Lafayette Theatre this week. It is one of the "Potash and Perlmutter" stories by Montague Glass, and is built around two Jewish clothing manufacturers, who go into the clothing business. "The principal reason why this production is so difficult for colored actors is that it is in Jewish dialect, including the gretureasures and facial expressions of the foreign Jew. Define their man, humdippe, the colored performers, give a good preformance and the play remains much of its original humor.

The most successful track meet ever held by the Public School Athletic League was staged at the Brooklyn Athletic Field on Saturday, June 10, when more than four thousand athletes from the public high schools of the city participated. A number of new records were established—three by the colored athletes. The first record to toppled in the high school events was the 100-yard dash record of 10.35 seconds, which was broken by Frank Hussey of Stuyvesant High School, who covered the distance in 9:50-10 seconds. Carlos Figueroa, the high point scorer at the meet, broke the next record by winning the 220 yard event in 21.91 seconds. The previous record was 22.15 seconds. The former champion, Fred Hands, did not succeed in placing in this event. K Wheean of the Boys High School finished second. In the running high jump, Figueroa forced Charles Mappers of DeWalt Clinton to break his own record of 5 feet 9.34 inches, and set a new record of 6 feet W. O. McGeehan, formerly sporting editor of the New York Tribune, now on the New York Herald, takes up the matter of a champion defending his boxing title or abbreviating his throne in the issue of the Herald for Sunday, June 11. Mr. McGeehan is not particularly noted for his love of the Negro, but it must be admitted that he does not permit race prejudice to be included in his opinion or warn his idea of what he share and rights in sports in his column, "On the Side Lines," he writes as follows: If the New York Boxing Commission intends to be fair and impartial it must extend to the heavyweight champion, Jack Dempsey, the same treatment that has been extended to Johnny Kilbane, teacherweight, and Johnny Wilson (Iroquois Panica), middleweight champion. The commission must that Kilbane and Wilson must accept challenges from local contenders before June 92 or suffer having their titles declared null and void or something of that sort. I do not know what makes a contender logical, but the ruling seems reasonable enough. Kilbane and Wilson are two champions who have been worked at their trade. They have retained their titles by keeping their chins out of danger. The opinion of the Basing Commission is that a champion should expose his clan above the perimeter at least once every month. This seems enough to convince but the champion lies in examine the training record of his clan. Dempsey, heavyweight champion in view of this proposition, down by the Basing Commission. His record still persists genetically and other things do not concern him. Dempsey's last defense at the title can be called that, was made in July 2, 1921, over eleven months ago. Dempsey has announced that he will not defend the title until Labor Day if he. He wants to pick his own antagonist from three men, all of whom he already has knocked out. There is only one contender worth considering, the Negro Harte Wells. Dempsey apparently is designing this one very carefully just as carefully as Wilson is dodging Grisha, and Kibane is dodging Johnny Dempsey. To clear up the scary weight situation Wells' manager should challenge Wells and post a treason. Then in Europe, the Bossine Commission The公诉人 will take the same in the heavyweight as they have taken in the lightweight and middle- weight divisions. Otherwise the com- mission cannot be considered logical or impartial. Some time ago lack Kearney who makes the statements for Dempsey and some of them are weird and wonderful- said something to this effect "Dempsey will fight Wills if the public demands the bout." The public is demanding the bout about as emphatically as the public ever has demanded a bout. The public is not sending sound robins or petitions. for that event. Figueroa was second with a jump of 5 feet 12 inches. In the running broad jump, Figueroa was also successful, and set a new record of 21 feet 6.78 inches. Majors was a double winner; besides winning the high jump, he was also the winner of the polys vault. Stuyvesant High School was the high point scorer with 48 points, and Manual Training and DeWitt Clinton High Schools tied for second place with 18 points each. In the Elementary team, P. S. 10 was the winner with 34 points. Among the athletes who represented this school were four colored runners, W. Rebecca, W. Michel, F. Wagod and L. Breagan. P. S. 43 was second and P. S. 5 third. The record of the colored athletes in the meet was better than that of any other racial group taking part. Of the six new records established, three were set by the colored runners, and had it not been for a bad foot, Cecil Cook, a crack athlete of DeWitt Clinton, would possibly have established a new record in the 440-yard event. Bring Commission Dosey-Wills Meeting but if Dempsey is wanted to fight anybody it is Wills. The public does not want another hunt with Carpenter, Breman or Willard. This is certain. In fact beats with any of the three victims would be barred in nearly every State in the Union and perhaps even in France. I learn told that it would be hard to get a permit for a Democracy Wills boat on New York State. I do not see why it should be. The law does not prohibit the muskets. It would be a foolish and an unlawful act if we did. At least they should let the Negro have the reasonable right to be hit on the chin. WILLIE ST. CLAIR GETS DECISION OVER MARTIN Another Paco Coast fighter, Willie St. Cain of Portland, Ore., made his debut at the 50th regiment army on Friday night, June 9, and although he was awarded a decision over Johnny March in their twelve round bout, he did not make an unusual impression on the fans as a fighter. Perhaps it was due to the fact that he was in poor condition, as he had not fought in some time but was nevertheless true that Marten gave him a close fight in almost every round and the decision in St. Clair's favor was a close one. The western midweight is under the management of George Meyer who now haws in Willie St. Cain and Danny Lel, both the best fighters of the season, both on Friday night. Marten won 152 pounds and St. Clair won 154 pounds. I have been in the arena at the army and in the courts only three were held. The four star of the evening was between late Hayes of the 4th and late Moore of the 50th, who night two twelve turnovers. Moore picked up a game right, but was outclassed in almost every round.

Hugh S. Fullerton, in commenting on gambling at the semi-professional baseball games, in and around New York, in a recent issue of the *Leisure* magazine had the following to say: "Open gambling, exhibitions of players thrusting money through the streets and making bets with spectators during games, modifying of unpure and artfully rotten conditions exist in many places. There are swarms of gamblers following the strong semi-pro clubs, wagering large sums of results, and the evil is made worse by the fact that most of it happens at the "At a recent game between two colored teams on a park which perfectly safeguarded, members of one team went around the grounds, money through the screen, betting and taking all the money in opposing team was best, but the unpire was rushed, abused, threatened and finally weakened and the bets were saved." "The thing was one of the most disgraceful in the history of sports, but they got away with it." I do not know whether the above occurred as stated or whether it was exaggerated, but it is a fact that there is entirely too much gambling at the games. The Lincoln Giants have at the Catholic Protectory Oval one of the most beautiful baseball grounds in the city, yet gambling, which in many cases heated arguments with the use of bad language and sometimes has made it unsure for women to go to this park to see the Sunday games.

Church On Sunday, June 11, the morning and evening services of St. Mark's M. E. Church were largely attended. The day was ritually observed as Children's Day. The pastor, Dr. W. H. Brooks, who has been ill for several weeks, was able to participate at the morning service, but did not preach. Bishop Thirkield delivered a very forceful and didactic address to the children and teachers. The subject of his able address was the two followers of God as dear children. The teachers and children presented a beautiful and inspiring appearance as they marched into the church behind the choir. In the evening communion was administered by Dr. Brooks to two hundred and ninety-eight communicants. Owing to considerable damage to the roof of a building in the rear of the church by the terrific storm in the afternoon, it was deemed inadvisable to hold the evening service in the church, hence it was held in the church house. Two probationers received the right hand of fellowship and were admitted into full membership of the church. During the day, eight persons joined the church. The Sunday-school was largely attended and the collection good. The exercises of the Epworth League were well attended and an enjoyable program rendered. There was a large gathering men at the meeting of the Brethschool Bible Class. William Pickens of the N. A. A. C.

Mother Zion Church A beautiful summer day afforded a special opportunity for church attendance June 11, and as result a large congregation was present to witness as for 11 o'clock service. The parish tendered by the show during the service was d'lan an exceptionally charakter. The sermon was prescheduled by Dr. Brown, the pastor. He announced his text from Acts 20.42. The theme of the text chosen and spoken from declared the speaker, constituting the internal discourse of Paul to one church before taking his departure from it to render service elsewhere. This being the last Sunday worship prior to the convoking of the annual ordination the text chosen and the theme was indeed appropriate. Beginning as in Paul, according to the text, Dr. Brown declared that he had not held in preaching and advocating the principles as set forth by our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, on which Christians should build their faith and hope. An excursion retrospect on the activities and accomplishments of the ecclesiastical labor was taken and instructively made from which every one person is to go away with a greater understanding of what the church really is more than ever before. In the retrospect he told Mather Zion Smith had during the year, administration of the order of moses, in diaries, both personally and financially, had great financial receipts, and greater knowledge of both real and material than he in the history of her one hundred and twenty-sixth year of existence. He also declared that the progress made by the Sunday school during the year was the greatest in the history. The sermon as a whole was a biblical presentation of noble faith and success during the year. ciminalis. R. H. King of Atlanta and Rav. H. C. Regers of Chicago. Outstanding features of the program included a special memorial service in honor of the late William A. Hunton, the form colored secretary of the International Y. M. C.

At the close of the serotonin an opportunity was given to all who desired to connect themselves with the church. At this service five persons were received into the church.

Try Magnesia For Stomach Trouble It Neutralizes Stomach Acidity, Prevents Food Permeation, Sour Gassy Stomach and Acid Indigestion Doubleress it you are a sufferer from indigestion, you have already tried pepsin, pancetinac, charcoal, drugs, and various digestive aids and you know these things will not cure your trouble—in some cases do not even give relief. But before giving up hope and deciding you are a chronic dyspeptic just try the effect of a little Bisurated Magnesium not the ordinary commercial carbonated, citrate, or milk, but the pure Bisurated Magnesium which you can obtain from practically any drugrist in either powdered or tablet form. Take a teaspoonful of the powder or two compressed tablets with a little water after your next meal, and see what a difference this makes. It will instantly neutralize the dangerous, harmful acid in the stomach which now causes your food to ferment and sour, making gas, wind, flatulence, heartburn and the bloated or heavy, lumpy feeling that seems to follow most everything you eat. You will find that provided you take a little Bisurated Magnesium immediately after a meal, you can eat almost anything and enjoy it without any danger of pain or discomfort to follow and moreover, the continued use of the bisurated magnesium cannot injure the stomach in any way so long as there are any symptoms of acid indigestion. 666 quickly follows Goth, Construction, Whisperes and Headaches.

It said: The highest and trust type of courage on this planet is that of a black man in Mississippi or Texas. It requires more courage for a black man in Texas to be a normal human, being than for a white Texan to be a "hero" for when a black man in Texas dares to walk and talk and act as a normal human being he is in much more danger of his life than is the white Texan who tries the daredevil business. It requires more courage for a Negro to ride on a Pullman car in Texas than for a white to face and fight a dozen robber bandits. For, if the white Texan fought off the bandits and saved his purse, he would be praised by all men and perhaps rewarded; but if a Negro in a Pullman fought off his would be murderer and saved his life he would next have to fight every other white man in the state from the governor down. He would find more hell after he extricated himself from the Pullman car than he found in it. The persistent struggle maintained by the Negro editors and other leaders of the race in the South, in the face of intimidation of all sorts, has developed the highest qualities of moral courage and physical endurance. Their outspoken denunciation of wrong and injustice practiced against the race and persistent demand for equal opportunity as men and citizens is deserving of unqualified admiration and support.

WALTER HURVEY 825 INDIANA AVENUE ATLANTIC CITY, N. J. May 7-8pm The Age Editors of Other Editors Speaking of Maryland, the Baltimore Afro-American said editorially: Those who continue to prate about the cordial relations between the zacos should get it into their heads that in a State where the Jim Crow cars run, colored teachers and schools are criminated against, newspapers refuse to treat colored people in a dignified man- ner and ignore race news of the better sort, fairplay does not prevail. But what is grudgingly conceded on political grounds to the Hobrew may yet be won by the race by a concerted and manly insistence for fair play along all lines. This is an apt definition of a condition and the way to remedy it. The Kansas City Call says that "a vote in the primary election is worth two in the general election." The wise voter is an enrolled voter. MASONS TO CELEBRATE FESTIVAL OF ST. JOHN The Grand Lodge of Mason's, Prince Hall, of the State of New York, David W.

The employer and attorney on the office of the United States District Attorney for the Southern District of New York held their annual outing and picnic at Semler's Hotel, Grand City, Staten Island, on Saturday afternoon, June 10. A feature of the outing was a baseball game between the assistants on the criminal side of the office and those on the civil side. Col. William Hayward, who heads the office, cast his lot with the assistants on the civil side, and almost knocked the cover off the ball, getting a bit every time he came to bat. This side won by a large score. Assistant U. S. Attorney James C. Thomas was the pitcher for this side, and pitched an airlift game. Robert T Erwin, United States District Judge for the Southern District of Alabama who resides at Mobile, Ala. imputed the game, where a colored, Assistant United States Attorney pitched against a white attorney, and all agreed at Judge Erwin had a fair impartial eye.
