Are the Police Unnecessarily Brutal in Treatment Of Prisoners at the West 135th Street Station?
Police Blackjacks Bring Death to Man
Hubert Dent is Victim of a Beating by Three Detectives While Being Finger-Printed at the West 135th Street Police Station
Hubert Dent, 21 years old, who lived at 529 Lenox avenue, died Tuesday, June 27, in Harlem Hospital from injuries inflicted by Detective Wesley C. Redding, colored, and Detectives Edwin C. McGrath and Stanley F. Gorman, both white, all attached to the 135th street station, 38th Precinct. Dent was under arrest in the station house on a warrant for assault and robbery, and the allegation is that he seized Redding's pistol from its holster and attempted to shoot the officer.
The two men were alone in the finger print room at the time, and the statement given out for publication is to the effect that Redding grappled with Dent, calling for help, and that McGrath and Gorman rushed to his assistance. Blackjacks were used on Dent to such an extent that he died a few hours later. Assistant District Attorney John R. Hennis, who conducted an investigation into the happening, declared that the officers were justified in their action and exonerated them of all blame.
Residents in the immediate neighborhood of the station house declare that it is a common happening for them to be aroused and disturbed by sounds of severe beatings administered to prisoners at this station house. And it is alleged that these beatings are administered not only to male prisoners, but that women are handled in the same manner.
In connection with the beating, a man resident in the immediate neighborhood makes a statement to the effect that about 3 people on Tuesday morning she was awakened from sleep by sounds of blows and by moans and groans of the victim, evidently coming from the police station. This witness declares that the sounds were so distressing and poignant that she called up police headquarters on the phone and reported

Structure Being Erected at 138th Street and Seventh Avenue, to Be Largest Negro Church Building in America-Cost $300,000
Just to show that there pet remains in Harlem a wealth of raw and unexploited material for the footlights, despite the heavy inroads made lately for theatrical talent, by colored musical shows, twenty odd young ladies staged a successful minstrel show Friday evening, June 25, at Manhattan Cinema. The performance was attended by a large and fashionable audience, and at times was suggestive of an entertainment put on by professionals rather than by amateurs.
The minstrel show was given for the benefit of Katy Perguson Home, 162 West 130th street, and the Boys' Welfare Association, 4 and 6 West 131st street. Fred R. Moore, editor of THE AGE, was impressario. The entertainment and prepaid music direction of Jesse A. Shipp, Sr., who was the manager of the show.

Presents to the exercises, members and friends of the church packed Metropolitan Baptist Church, 129th street and Seventh avenue, where two services were held in the basement, the assistant pastor of the Arthur J. Payne, preached a sermon from the subject, "What is chief cornerstone" and in the ninth auditorium of the church the pastor, the Rev. A. Clayton Powell, preached to the Grand Lodge, F. & A. M. from the subject, "Vanity and Value in Building."
Following this service, the masonic order, the Sunday-school, members and friends marched up to the site of the church building, led by the Jenkins Orphan Band and conducted the cornerstone exercises. The program included remarks by the pastor; cornerstone offerings, consisting of the Holy Bible; a history of the church; the church membership roll; the sales of the mortar-paper; the church weekly paper; 144 members and silver coins; the name of persons who gave as much as one dollar toward the money needed to complete the new building; Charles W. Bippe and son, the architects; the Miller-Bred Company, the builders; and clips.
pinga from the following newspapers: The New York Age, the New York World, the Harlem Home News, the New York News, the Chicago Defender, and the Pictorial News. The Masonic Grand Lodge of the State of New York deposited in the cornerstone a bronze medal of its foundation, a copy of 1922 proceedings, and a list of officers taking part in the ceremonies. Following the offering, Nelson E. Dixon read the history of the church, after which the Masons took charge of the program and conducted their cornerstone service under the leadership of their grand master, W. David Parker.
An offering of $3,061.61 was collected from the large audience present, of which about $2,500 was given by the friends present. Excellent order was maintained by a special detachment of police, and the Women's Police Reserves of the 30th Proctect, under the command of Captain Elizabeth Mayfield.
The Abyssinian Baptist Church when completed will be the largest Negro church in America. It will have an auditorium meeting 2,000 people, and one of the best equipped community houses in the city. The church building is costing $300,000, all of which has been rainfall save about $20,000. This is being collected by public subscription, which is meeting with a liberal response from all classes of citizens.

JESSE SHIPP, JR. DIES IN NEW YORK
Jesse A. Shipp, Jr., one of Harlem's most popular young men, affectionately known as Little Jesse Shipp, and at the age of 12 clock Tuesday night, June 27, after illness, which kept him confined to his bed for nearly three weeks. Although he had been in ill health, for some time, his death was a big shock to his many friends, as only last Saturday afternoon he was seen on Seventh avenue, conversing with friends. Death was due to complication of diseases.
A little more than a year ago the deceased was knocked down in an automobile accident, and it is thought that the injuries sustained in this mishap were largely responsible for his subsequent demise.
Jesse A. Shipp, Jr., was born in Cincinnati, Ohio, June 2. 1886 and lived in that city until fifteen years ago. In Cincinnati he was connected with the circulation department of one of the dailies and being quite adept as a boxer won the respect of every newboy in town.
In Cincinnati he also attracted local attention as a baseball player and was brought to New York by the late Bert Williams, given a part in one of Williams & Walker's productions, and became pitcher for the Williams & Walker baseball team.
When the Williams & Walker Company disbanded young, Shipp organized The Association at 2283 Seventh avenue, which became a popular meeting place for the race's best known athletes and theatrical performers. "Little Jesse" was the moving spirit of this organization, which contributed to the founding of the Shipp Page.
The annual meeting of the trustees of Tuskegee Normal and Industrial Institute was held Monday, July 26, at the General Education Board room, D. Broadway, William G.

Large Audience Present When Armory Board Opens Bids Submitted for Erection of New Home for Harlem's Colored Soldiers
Harlem citizens of all races evinced lively interest in the session of the Armory Board last week when bids were opened for the erection of the armory for Col. Little's 369th Regiment, New York Guard, largely the 15th. The armory is tobe erected between Lille and Harlem with the armory and the auxiliary for the erection are already completed.
Prior to opening the meeting, the 369th regimental band, under command of Lieut. Eugene Mikell, drew an immense crowd in front of the City Hall when it played a program of interest and merit.
The Armory Board met in the chambers of the Board of Estimate, and five bids were sent in. The sums asked for the erection of the superstructure were $331,331, $330,000, $308,572, $314,447 and d $285,600. In accordance with the rules in such matters, the bids were submitted to the Comptroller for examination before a decision is reached. $350,000 has been allotted for the armory and $200,000 was previously voted for the site.
Addresses were made by Assemblyman Louis A. Cuvillier, who introduced the armory bill in the Senate Assembly; Charles W. Anderson, Dr. J. A. Gardner Smith, Fred R. Moore, Alderman George W. Harirs, Col. Arthur Little, Mayor John F. Hylan and Comptroller Charles F. Craig.
Col. Little, in praising the city-for making provision for the armory, declared that this gathering of Harlemites was spontaneous, but that when the armory was opened there would be a regular party. Mayor Hylan said that he and his colleagues were elected to serve the whole people, regardless of race, color or creed. Continuing he said: "We cooperate with those who cooperate with us. We want to serve all. We do not feel that you are under any obligation to us for this armory. You are entitled to it."
Mr. Moore invited the Mayor to come up to the opening of the armory. "He likes to come up to Harlem," said the speaker. "He came up last Fall. We colored people don't have to apologize for our citizenship for we are the only people who were invited here."
Comptroller Craig, who ncalled upon by the audience, spoke in the same strain as the mayor, declaring that the people were under no obligation for the armory, and that there would be a new public school, and, when the site is found, a new playground. "We will not hesitate to vote the money to pay for it," he said. The bide are to be acted on shortly.
permanent improvements, including a new dormitory for boys.
Out of town trustees who attended were Julius Rosenwald of Chicago; Charles E. Mason of Boston; W. M. Scott of Philadelphia; and Irving R. Merritt of Syracuse. Taukegue Institute officials present included Principal Moton; Warren Logan, treasurer; R. R. Taylor, mechanical director; C. H. Gibson, chief accountant, and A. L. Holsey, secretary of the board.

Object to Tone of Welcome Address. Delievered to Bishops' Council by Personal Representative of Mayor
BishopFountainResponds
Says Race in New York and Other Northern Cities No Better Off Than in the South-Bishop-Chapelle Speaks for South Carolina
Resentment and displeasure surged through the ranks of the southern prelates and ministers in attendance upon the seventieth assembling of the mid-summer session of the Bishops' Council of the African Methodist Episcopal Church, held at Bethel A. M. E. Church, New York City, when at the welcome reception on Thursday evening, June 22, Commissioner of Structures and Plants, Grover H. Whalen, as personal representative of Mayor John P. Hylan, welcoming the Council to the city, took occasion to boost the mayor's cause and tell of many alleged favors and considerations shown the colored people of the city by the municipal head.

Editor of Crisis Programmed to Address Bishops Council, But Small Party Forms Conspiracy to Hoot Him Down-Program is Changed
The resentful feeling aroused by Commissioner Whalen's address was intensified by utterances of Ferdinand O. Morton and other local speakers, who seemed to take their cue from the city's representative, and joined in a pane of praise of the mayor and told of the wonderful advantages offered in New York for the Negro.
Bishop Fountain Takes Inna.
This sentiment was given expression al a crystalized form by Bishop W. A Fountain of Atlanta, G., who presented to the mayor the Oceanic praises and comments that Mayor Hyacinth a personal representative did not show to the Council the courtesy that Atlanta's mayor himself would have shown on a similar occasion.
"Not only would the mayor of Atlanta have come personally to deliver his welcome," said Bishop Fountain;
OUTLOOK FOR BUSINESS LEAGUE SESSION BRIGHT
(Special to The New York Age.)
Tuskegee Institute, Ala., L. B. Moore formerly dean of Howard University, who has been serving the National Negro Business League as field representative for its 1922 meeting to be held in August at Norfolk Va., is at Tuskegee Institute after a trip which included visits to New York. Philadelphia, Richmond, Newport News, Norfolk, Columbia, S. C., Atlanta, Nashville and Chattanooga.
He reports that Norfolk is working hard to provide suitable entertainments for the business men who attend the League session in that city, and this notwithstanding a certain amount of depression due to recent business failures. The new program of constructive work planned by President Moton and his advisers has struck a responsive chord in all sections and much enthusiasm is being shown in cities which have been lethargic in the past.
Mr. Moore reports that the outlook for a large attendance is bright, and that members of the executive committee in the various states are taking personal interest in securing attendance of business men and women from their communities at the Norfolk meeting.

Editor of Crisis Programme Council, But Small Party Hoot Him Down—P
Bishops of the A. M. E. Connection, who were in New York City last week for the Bishops' Council of that church, were placed in an awkward position through the action of several members of the "Lower House" made up of ministers and laymen of the church, who for some rather indefinite reason, took advantage of a proposed address which was to have been delivered before the Council by Dr. W. E. F. DaBoh, editor of the Crisis. These men, it is alleged, are a compulsory for the purpose of hearing down "Dr. DaBoh when he appeared on the platform to speak." The bishops had to apologize for the proposed slight, it is said.
The program as prepared had been approved by the Connexional Council ("The Lower Hunger"), of which Ser. Henry Y. Tobias of Jindalwala, Ph. is president. Information is to the effect that Mr. Tobias had given special approval to the invitation extended to him, followed by the local committee to grant. The latter committee gave Mr. Tobias the permission to accept the Connexional Council by extension.
"he would have remained at least long enough to listen to the response which his address called forth." Continuing, the speaker declared that New Yorkers may boast as much as they please about the status of the Negro in this and other northern cities, but they on a whole the race was no better off in one part of the country than in any other.
Although not officially programmed to make any response, Bishop W. Campbell of Columbia, the university in Iowa, wrote the addresses which had been made especially one which carried a plan that Negroes of New York be urged to do something for the poor Negroes of the South. Bishop Chappelle declared that Negroes in South Carolina did not need such assistance, and that there was no necessity for the Negroes of New York to cry for those who lived in the southern states. He emphasized the statement that he was tired of hearing such sentiments as had been expressed in the addresses made by the New Yorkers who preceded him.
The audience seemed entirely in sympathy with the sen...sent expressed by the indignant protestants and gave expression to their agreement in load and enthusiastic applause which continued for a considerable period. This meeting was in charge of a committee of citizens of New York, with George W. Harris, Alderman from the 21st district, as chairman. Among those associated with him as members of the committee were Alderman Martin J. Healy of the 19th district, Charles W. Anderson, former Collector of Internal Revenue, Ferdinand Q. Morton, head of the Colored Tammany Democracy, and a number of other well known New York citizens.
It is interesting to note that Alderman Healy, the only white man on the committee, whose other members are prominent figures in law, medicine, business, music, theatre and social service work, is the same man who, in making a fight for a seat on the Board of Aldermen against the colored candidate for reelection, used the argument with his white constituents that a Negro should not be on the Board of Aldermen.

AT COLUMBUS, O. HOME
(Special to The New York Age).
Columbus, Ohio—John H. Bowles of 654 Mt. Vernon avenue, special statistician in office of the Secretary of State, died at this late home on Saturday, June
Thirty states sent representatives twelve of them being southern states. The Silent Parade marched through the downtown section of Newark and past the City Hall, in front of which a reviewing stand had been erected. Immediately following the parade, a mass meeting was held in Newark's Armory where 3,000 members and friends of the Association were welcomed in behalf of Governor Edwards of New Jersey by James Baker, chairman of the State Tax Commission, Governor Edwards being unavoidably absent at an encampment of State Militia. Moorefield Story of Boston, national president of the N. A. A. C. P. and former president of the American Bar Association, delivered, an opening address in which he suggested that Negroes in the South might go on strike if necessary, to obtain justice and liberty. Mr. Storey defended the constitutionality of the Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill.
On the opening day of the Conference James Weldon Johnson, national secretary, urged colored Americans to hold Republican Senators responsible for failure to enact the Dyer Bill. T. G. Neuster, colored member of the West Virginia legislature, told of the successful fight to have an anti-lynching law enacted in his state.
Senator Joseph S. Frelinghuysen of New Jersey, sent the following telegram which was read at the night meeting, definitely committing himself to support and vote for the Dyer Bill.
"I am doing everything I can to have the Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill reported by the Senate Committee against determined opposition. I have seen Senator Sterling, a member of the Sub-Committee, several times and urged him to act immediately. I believe in the legislation and it must and will be enacted. Civilization and humanity demand it. It is justice long delayed. You may count on my continued effort until it is passed."
Another visitor and speaker at this session was Robert T. Kerlin, author of "The Voice of the Negro," former professor of English at Virginia Military Institute. Culminating in the award of the Spingarn medal, to Mrs. Mary B. Talbert, the first woman to receive it, on Tuesday, the night session was devoted to demands for full citizenship rights for colored women. With Mrs. Addie W. Hunton presiding, the following women addressed the conference: Hallie Q. Brown of Ohio, president of the National Association of Colored Women's Clubs; Ella Rush Murray of New York; Clara L. Laddey of New Jersey, representing the Woman's Peace Party; Mrs. Nathan Kusy, representing the National Council of Jewish Women; Mrs. Florence Halley, representing the New Jersey League of Women Voters, and Mrs. H. N. Simmons, representing the New Jersey Federation of Women's Clubs.
The Spingarm Medal was presented to Mary B. Talbert, former president of the National Association of Colored Women, in recognition of her having raised a fund to preserve the home of Frederick Douglass as a national memorial.
Wednesday's session was devoted to the value of the press and of publicity and two editors addressed the Conference. Royal J. Davis of the New York Brewing Post, urged colored Americans to become acquainted with editors.
Thursday night Representative Dyer was welcomed with cheers in Bethany Baptist Church by an audience crowding the church to the doors. He urged upon colored people the following principles:
1. That colored Americans should work together and not fight among themselves.
"If there is a pastor of one of your churches who will not work with you and for you," said Representative Dyer, "you ought to turn him out."
2. That colored Americans should vote irrespective of party, for men and women, and that Senators should be made to know the Republican Party would be held responsible for failure to enact the Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill.
3. That the membership of the N. A. A. C. P. should be raised to one million. "You go back," said Mr. Dyer, and tell the colored people, I said the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People is entitled to audit for the passage of the Anti-Lynching Bill in the House of Representatives.
Mr. Dyer said that "those who get up and short about the unconstitutionality of the Bill are, those who have experience in their hearts.
"This is not a race issue. This is a question involving the honor of the Republic. The Senate of the United States is Republican and unless it obeys the mandate to protect human life from snakes, those in control of the Republic are entitled to and deserve the condemnation of the people of America." Thursday, June 22, delegates and friends went on a day's boat ride in the Harbor of New York and up the Hudson River. The evening session was devoted to The Negro and the Making of Public Opinion. On Friday, closing day, the conference board reports and adopted final recommendations, hearing addresses at the night session by Dr. A. A. Goldwasser of the New School for Social Research; Dr. W. E.

13TH ANNUAL SUMMER
SCHOOL AT TUSKEGEE
(Special to The New York Age).
Tuskegee Institute, Ala.—"No group in the world is more welcome at Tuskegee Institute, than are teachers;" said Dr. Robert R. Moton, principal of Tuskegee Institute in welcoming the 680 teachers, representing every southern state, attending the thirteenth annual session of the Summer School which opened here recently.
"We are glad to have you here," continued Dr. Moton, "on account of the fine work you are doing in the South. I think no group is making greater sacrifices than you, or is facing the difficulties with which you are confronted, and we at Tuskegee want to help you as we like to think of the important part which you are playing in shaping the destiny of rural life throughout the South."
The attendance this year is a recordbreaker and the teachers are entering upon their work earnestly and zealously. The following special courses are taught: Administration, Supervision and Aethics for principals; Rural Sociology and Indian Studies for County Training Teachers; and Business Courses and Drawing for all.
One of the main features of the Summer School schedule is the daily lecture by some speaker prominent in Educational work. Those who have spoken to the teachers since the session opened are: J. T. Williams, of Drury College, Springfield, Mo., who advised teachers to read the books of Dr. Booker T. Washington; to emphasize composition work, and to develop dramatic art among their students; W. T. B. Williams, special agent of the Jeanes and Slater Fund Board, related the history of Summer Schools and the opportunities thereof for Negro teachers in the South; Chas. H.

He emphasized particularly the importance of inculcating sex education in the regular school work and the proper methods of conducting such courses. In addition to the regular lectures Dr. Stewart conducted daily classes and delivered special lectures to the women and to the men. Each lecture was well attended and was highly interesting and instructive.

Force Reduction in Haiti
But Recommends Indefinite Continuance of American Military Occupation on Ground That Revolution Would Follow Withdrawal---Record Both of "Failure and Achievement"
Washington, D. C.—Indefinite continuance of American military occupation of Haiti, but with a reduction of the force of marines, was recommended in a unanimous report presented June 26 by the Special Senate committee which for months has been investigating American administration in Haiti and Santo Domingo.
Moton Urged Arkansans To Cultivate Pride of Race
The committee deferred announcement of its findings on Dominican affairs "in view of the negotiations happily begun between the State Department and the Dominican leaders taking to the termination of military government in Santo Domingo." The declaration that early withdrawal of or drastic reduction in the American marine occupation force in Haiti would be followed certainly by brigandage and revolution was made in the report, which is signed by Senator McCormick, Republican, Illinois, chairman, and Senators Oddie, Republican, Nevada; Pomerene, Democrat, Ohio, and Jones, Democrat, New Mexico, who have held protracted hearings and recently made a tour of Haiti and Santo Domingo.
Reyarded as Benefit
The committee found that on the whole American administration in Haiti had been of great benefit to the Haitians and was so regarded, it is said, by a vast majority. The American record, however, was described as one both of "failure and achievement," the report adding that there had been some "blunders" and a few instances of cruelty against natives by members of the military force.
"In brief, under the treaty between Haiti and the United States," the report said, "the peace of the republic, the solvency of its Government, and the security of its people have been estab-

Webb, supreme custodian of the Woodmen of Union, and president of the Hot Springs Local Negro Business League, invited Dr. Moton to Arkansas to bring the message of interracial cooperation and of racial progress. Mr. Webb had also issued a call to the business men of Arkansas to meet here today to organize a State Business League.
Reception at Little Rock.
Dr. Moton's first stop in this state was at Little Rock, where he came from Hollister, Mo., after completing a two days speaking engagement at a summer camp of white Y. M. C. A. workers. Upon arrival at Little Rock Friday night, June 16, at 11 o'clock, Dr. Moton was met by a delegation of business men of the city headed by A. E. Bush. E. J. Jones and P. J. Dorman of the Masonic Templars. A banquet was given the same night at the Mosaic Temple at which time Dr. Moton spoke and paid tribute to the late John E. Bush, who founded the Mosaic and who, during his lifetime, was a warm friend of the late Booker T. Washing-
in marriage, wearing white Georgette and carrying a bouquet of roses and lilies of the valley.

The ushers were Junius C. Hunt and A. S. Burwell. Following the wedding, a reception was held at the home of the bride, and later the couple were entertained by Mrs. Elizabeth Gregory. The bridal party left for Boston on Saturday, June 17.

M. E. CHURCH BOARD
(Special to The New York Age)
Washington, D. C.-The Board of Temperance, Prohibition and Public Morals of the M. E. Church, Bishop William F. M. Dowell, president, Dr. Clarence True Wilson, secretary, has announced a conference of colored leaders to be held in Nashville, Tenn., at a date to be announced later, to consider the questions of prohibition and law enforcement.
Prominent members of the various church organizations, without regard to denomination, will be invited, with representations of the press, schools, hospitals and professors, and public welfare agencies.
lished for the first time for many years. In justification, of American intervention, the report said that "the chronic anarchy into which Haiti had fallen, the exhaustion of its, credit, the threatened intervention of the German Government, and the actual landing of the French naval forces all imperilled the Monroe Doctrine and led the Government of the United States to take the successive steps set forth * * * to establish order in Haiti, to help institute a Government as nearly representative as might be, and to assure the collaboration of the Governments of the United States and Haiti for the future maintenance of peace and the development of the Haitian people.
Constructive Service
"Your committee believes," the report continued, "that doublelless the American representatives might have done better and that they have made mistakes, which in the light of experience they would not make again. * * * That not only did the treaty fail to take cognizance of certain reforms essential to Haitian progress, but that it is the choice of its agents and the determination of their responsibilities the Government of the United States was not always happy." American intervention; the report said, has been marked by "constructive service" to the Haitian people and the committee said there "must be cooperation" by literate Haitians with the
ton. On Saturday morning Dr. Moton addressed the Summer Normal at Philander Smith College, and later addressed the office force of the Mosaics.
Reception at Hot Springs
A delegation of Hot Springs citizens and the Woodmen of Union bravasband met Dr. Moton and party upon arrival here. Saturday afternoon, June 17. At 8:30 p. m. the same evening, a banquet at the Star Cafe was given in Dr. Moton's honor by the Hot Springs Local League, Mme. M. E. Wilson, sang a solo, and toasts were offered by Rev. L. S. Brown, S. M. Wyatt, Dr. C. M. Wade and R. C. Barrow, John L. Webb, who acted as toastmaster, introduced Dr. Moton who told something of the work and progress of Tuskegee Institute during the past six years.
The Sunday Afternoon Meeting.
On Sunday afternoon, June 18, the Auditorium Theatre here was crowded with a large and appreciative audience of white and colored citizens who came to hear Dr. Moton. An address of welcome by George R. Belding, representing the white citizens, was warmly received. Mr. Belding stated that with colored leaders here like John L. Webb, the white and colored people had been able to work together in peace and good will. "When an undesirable citizen of either race," said Mr. Belging "comes into our midst and threatens 60 distrust the good relations, we show them the nearest railroad." Continuing further, Mr. Belding said that Hot Springs had not had any lynching or mob outbreaks, and that good citizens of this community would not tolerate lawlessness.
Dr. Moton urged the members of his race to cultivate pride of race, to encourage habits of thrift, honesty and reliability, and to strive in every way to become more and more useful as citizens of their communities. He urged the appointment of Negro deputies for the thickly settled Negro communities, and said: "I am not unmindful of the important part which leaders among our people can play in the maintenance of law and order, for I know that nothing will...so effectively aid our efforts to secure just and fair treatment than to appear before the court of public opinion with clean hands."
Dr. Motton then told the white people some of the things which, as he said, the colored people had in the "banks of their heads." Justice in the courts and better railroad accommodations were some of the things which he asked the white people to see were guaranteed to his people. "The Negro in Arkansas wants the right to live and labor; the right to a fair trial in the courts; the right to travel in safety and comfort; the right to protect his home, and the right to serve his community and his state as any other citizen. To withhold these rights from him is unfair, unjust, un-American and un-Christian."
At the conclusion of Dr. Motors's address, Harry Jones, mayor of Hot Springs, regaled and cured that in his epiphany Dr. Motors's address would be to continue the spirit of good grit and understanding between the people.

"There are certain elements in Haiti which can balk and perhaps delay the rehabilitation of the country." The report added. "They cannot prevent it. The obvious duty of patriotic Haitians is to uphold their own Government in effectively cooperating with men of the United States under the treaty and so hasten the day when Haiti may stand alone. The alternative is the immediate withdrawal of American support and the abandonment of the Haitian people to chronic revolution, anarchy, barbarism, and ruin."
Marinas' Work Praised
High praise was given to the Marine Corps for its work in Haiti in the report which dealt at length with charges of cruelty by marines and local gendarmerie, only a few of which were declared proved, while many charges were declared false and others based on bear-say testimony by illiterate natives.
"The committee wishes to express its admiration for the manner in which our men accomplished their dangerous and delicate task," the report says. "It is noteworthy that in the last two years or more there have arisen no serious grounds for complaint. The confidence placed in Americans by the Haitian peasants and the approval frequently communicated to the committee by those who know and sympathize with the peasants and work among them negative the idea of any campaign of terrorism against the inhabitants such as agitators and professional propagandists, Haitian and American, would have appear."
Recommendations of the committee included flotation of the proposed new loan, to refund foreign debts and provide funds for highways, schools, and other public utilities and appointment of a legal adviser to the American High Commissioner, an expert in tropical agriculture, and an educator of the standing and special experience of Dr. Moton of Tuskegee Institute.

Hot Springs, Ark.-Although the new $200,000 bath house erected here by the Woodmen of Union will not be formally dedicated until the last week in August, hundreds of visitors have been through the building and many others have enjoyed the health-giving baths.
The erection of the bath house is a noteworthy achievement in Negro internal circles, in that it represents no extra assessment on the 42,000 members. Dr. E. A. Kendall supreme president, and John L. Webb, supreme custodian, have proved their leadership among the Woodmen of Union and their ability to guide the destinies of a great brotherhood, upon the highest principles.
John L. Webb is a graduate of Tuskegee Institute and received a certificate in carpentry from that institute. From carpentry to a successful contractor was the short but logical step for a man of his vision and character. With his experience as a builder Mr. Webb supervised the construction of the bath house and effected economics which saved the Woodmen of Union more than $80,000. The Woodmen's bath house is a three-story brick structure containing bath rooms, cooling rooms, rest rooms, guest chambers, parlors, operating rooms, diet kitchen, Jaundry and gymnasium. It combines in a satisfactory degree the important features of a hospital and a hotel and bath house. To assure every

WAKE UP, REPUBLICANS!
The Republican leaders in New York State should wake up to the realities of the coming campaign. They should realize that the coming election will not be the walkover that it was two years ago, when the voters were so anxious to register their protest against, Wilsonism and all its works, that they defeated the most popular Governor they had since Theodore Roosevelt. To win this year, if Governor Miller is renominated, will be no easy task. Every vote possible will be required.
The Negroes as a factor of party strength have been totally ignored by the present State administration, and a studied effort has seemingly been made to eliminate them from the Republican party. The only offset to this freezing out process has been the friendly offices of individual leaders who have promised better things in some remote future that has not yet materialized. But in the language of the poet, soft words butter no parsips, and it is time to right about face for the party if it is anxious for success at the polls.
It is only just to Governor Miller to say that he has not offered us soft awards, or indeed any words at all. He absolutely refused to recognize the idea as a factor of party strength. But there are other candidates than the Governor concerned in scoring party successes besides the other State offices to be filled there are a United States Senator and Representatives to be elected. Leaving the Governor out of the question, there is need for the Republican Senate to wake up and square their positions with deeds, if they still continue to count upon the colored voters as an element of party strength. And to former loyalty have lost their hand in the face of lack of recognition from voters and emoluments of party issues.
BROADS OF THE STREETS.
The streets of New York are to a
and amount the only playgrounds af-
flicted for the majority of the children,
which efforts have been made through
the organizations and committees to
fulfill condition. But in spite of the
urban parks and vacant lots and
the parks reserved for the chil-
dren's recreational grounds, many of
these in good shape and dry-
sion in the midst of traffic and other peril. The danger from auto traffic is not the least of the peril to which the children who frequent the streets are exposed. With the closing of schools the number of children on the streets is naturally increased and the physical and moral risks are multiplied. In many cases both the parents are workers who go out for the day, and their offspring are left without restraints as to where or how they seek their diversion. The supply of suitable places for them to spend their time being limited, the streets become their favorite resort. Apart from the peril to life and limb by accident, due to traffic, these immature minds and bodies are exposed to moral harm through contact with evil disposed adults.
This danger has been emphasized in several cases of young girls, who have been corrupted by strangers whom they met on the streets. The provision of proper safeguards against such communication is a pressing necessity. Parets should warn their children, especially young girls, against the advances of strangers who may offer gifts and make prompt offers to take them to strange resorts. In fact, girls of tender age should not be allowed to roam the streets without proper guardian-sin.
Special attention should be given to these conditions as they exist in Harlem, as the number of children of the race who roam the streets, is such as to demand the utmost care in affording them proper safeguards. The police women and the women reserves render great service in this direction. While the police reserves without pay, they constitute a valuable aid to the regular force in reporting infractions of law and in preserving order and decency in public places. In addition to these women who stand for protection to the children, the regular police force under Captain Gargan and Deputy Inspector McGrath, can be relied upon to keep a watchful eye on the children's activities. The children must be protected from civil communications.
SOUTH ANSWERS HARDING.
Following the example of a long line of Republican predecessors, President Harding has expended much cordiality and amiability in making tentative advances to the unresponsive white South. He has offered rhetorical bouquets to the Confederate veterans, and invested the cause they fought for with unmerited glory. He has accreted the people of that section with joining sincerely in honoring Lincoln and in defending the flag of the Union. He even asserted that "the South long since came to realize that a vain assassin robbed it of its most sincere and potent friend," when Lincoln was slain by John Wilkes Booth.
This continued laudation of the South and the Confederacy by President Harding coupled with the eulogy of the author of the Fort Pillow massacre, Gen. N. B. Forrest, delivered by Secretary Denby of the Navy, has at last extorted a responsive echo from the remaining exponents of Confederacy. Inspired by the commendation of the cause of secession and its leaders from such distinguished northern sources as these, the United Confederate Veterans, in convention at Richmond, last week concluded that the children of the South should be taught the history of the Rebellion from their point of view.
Regardless of the fact that their action shattered some of the pretty fantasies uttered by Mr. Harding, the veterans charged that Lincoln was personally responsible for forcing the war upon the South. Moreover they decided that a history embodying this statement should be recommended for use in southern schools. The portion of the report of the Historical committee referring to Lincoln read as follows:
"Your committee would specially commend for use in the schools of the South a pamphlet by Col. Huger W. Jackson of Curryville, Ga., The Truth of the War Conspiracy of 1861, and published by that great-hearted Southern historian, Miss Mildeed Rutherford. This presents the official evidence gathered principally from the United States Government archives, which proves the Confederate war was deliberately and personally conceived and its inauguration made by Abraham Lincoln, and that he was personally responsible for forcing the war upon the South."
This shows that there is a limit to the quantity of soft soap and sophisticated platties that the white South will stand for, even from the dispensers of unlimited political patronage. The role of mourning and regret for the murder of Lincoln, even at this late day, was too galling and too onerous a burden, to be long endured. The true sentiments of the unrepentant Bourbon South cropped out in the Rebel yell that found vent at the Richmond gathering of vetreas. Even Secretary Denby's culology of the Butcher of Fort Pillow, who slaughtered the Union garrison after its surrender, would be represented by these veterans as an intrusion upon their own peculiar preserves.
This incident, together with the attending circumstances, should be a lesson to those northern Republicans who with weeklong complacency seek to promote harmony between the sections by sacrificing the truths of history to the South. These apologists for the truth might as well realize that as far as they may go in self-abasement, they can never go far enough to satisfy the Fancer of the "unconstructed" South. As Mayor Hylan's commissioner of academics, David Hirschfield, agly put it, according to the New York Tribune: "Some of the Southmen have not yet answered the Dill Walt."

VIEWS and REVIEWS By James Woldon Johnson, Contributing Editor.
THE GREAT BOOTLEGGER.
only there comes great comic moment. Every once in a while these men and something happens on the floor, which brings a hearty laugh or at least laugh. There are days when the "Congress of wit and humor which brightens things that can be found in the prince have had a very slight sense of humility of the situation which was canvassed of the Anheuser-Busch Company United States Government with be the world. The charge made by Mr. Carding was that the vessels operated by Board sold liquor outside the thru in his letter to the President, filed in names of wines and liquors, and the of the Shipping Board immediately in body. Mr. Lasker not only defend passenger vessels to sell liquor out the accused Mr. Busch's action on turn charged him with not "coming on with clean hands."
To us that Chairman Lasker's defense on government ships, as well as his busch with turpitude, are both very mening up the right to sell whiskey to our maritime nations continue to be supersers, from ashamed to state that there is a sufficient number of Ain in their flag to divert their trade to the competition would be from a heavily against the American ships the words of the chairman of the Ship at all a very flattering estimate of American who crosses the Atlantic. Thousands of American tourists booking not caring one iota whether they is or not so long as they sail where they can buy. Indeed, we see the necessity of placing such supplies on order to get any customers at all. Led by Chairman Lasker that these would be put out of business by the elementary on the sincerity of the great and its constitution in order to have an Lasker's attack on Mr. Busch is the Shipping Board. In writing to you to be thoroughly selfish and one of creating a public revolt against again revive the sale of your liquor you might hurt the American merchant create a situation to benefit your brand from the real point at issue. Mr. I am notorious, that the Adolphus Busch is possibly the Kaiser's close friend family for many years has maintained very much keenness of intelligence to both Mr. Lasker's defensive action and he did so in a letter which was it so well that we quote the thru self. I admit the correctness of your charge seek to again have the lawful right to my selfishness, let it go at that. We, in that Shipping Board as an example. The Shipping in the value as a going business of the Gerchant ships, while we are selfish in hope many millions may be saved through a text to partake of wholesome beer. That we do not come to the bar of public as cost us millions of dollars to keep them at we have in this correspondence repeated a real investigation. In my office is well above ninety, and the making here in America a glass of whiskey, Father, Adolphus Busch, made famous over product. Yet as I write I contemplate the couchers for the disbursement of America the Treasury in payment for German at the sold by our Government at a profit. That you, tend to lower the temperature."
Education is a ludicrous one, and it is of what is really a serious matter. Genes in Shakespearean tragedies. He in the United States spending millions enforce the Volstead Act throughout land and yet that same government on its own ships in order to make cars profit which will enable it to conventions. It is really absurd and as greater absurdity lies in the fact that sense living up to the theory of proximal home industries. The beers and its on its ships it purchases from for it will need a stronger defense than put up. It will require the brain or get it out of its awkward position and millions of dollars to enforce proximal bootlegger to make a few hundred ships at sea is the biggest joke to present has yet been subjected.
Occasionally there comes great comic moments even in government affairs. Every once in a while these moments flash up in Congress and something happens on the floor of the Senate or the House which brings a hearty laugh or at least a smile to the whole country. There are days when the "Congressional Record" contains a bit of wit and humor which brighter or funnier than most of the things that can be found in the professional comic publications.
One must have had a very slight sense of humor not to have relished the irony of the situation which was caused by August A. Busch, President of the Anheuser-Busch Company of St. Louis, charging the United States Government with being the greatest bootleger in the world. The charge made by Mr. Busch and sent to President Harding was that the vessels operated by the United States Shipping Board sold liquor outside the three mile limit.
Mr. Busch, in his letter to the President, filed exhibits of wine lists containing names of wines and liquors, and their prices. Chairman Lasker of the Shipping Board immediately sprung to the defense of that body. Mr. Lasker not only defended the right of United States passenger vessels to sell liquor outside the three mile limit but he accused Mr. Busch's action as being "thoroughly selfish," and in turn charged him with not "coming before the bar of public opinion with clean hands."
It appears to us that Chairman Lasker's defense of the right to sell whiskey on government ships, as well as his counter attack charging Mr. Busch with turpitude, are both very weak and very lame. In bolstering up the right to sell whiskey on these ships Mr. Lasker declared, "So long as Great Britain, France, Germany, Japan and other maritime nations continue to serve liquors to American passengers, I am ashamed to state that my experience leads me to believe there is a sufficient number of Americans without proper pride in their flag to divert their trade to a foreign flag to the extent that the competition would be from a profit making standpoint very heavily against the American ship."
In the above words of the chairman of the Shipping Board we have what is not at all a very flattering estimate of the patriotism of the average American who crosses the Atlantic. Here we have a picture of thousands of American tourists booking their passage to Europe and not caring one iota whether they sail under the Stars and Stripes or not so long as they sail where there is plenty of liquor which they can buy. Indeed, we see the United States reduced to the necessity of placing such supplies of liquors upon its own ships in order to get any customers at all.
The fact stated by Chairman Lasker that these ships, unless they sold liquor, would be put out of business by the foreign ships is a curious commentary on the sincerity of the great nation which so lately amended its constitution in order to have complete prohibition.
But Chairman Lasker's attack on Mr. Busch is fully as lame as his defense of the Shipping Board. In writing to Mr. Busch he said, "I believe you to be thoroughly selfish and that you are acting in the hope of creating a public revolt against prohibition so that you may again revive the sale of your liquors utterly regardless of how you might hurt the American merchant marine in your effort to create a situation to benefit your brewery." And more aside still from the real point at issue, Mr. Lasker added, "It is, of course, notorious, that the Adolphus Busch who founded your brewery was possibly the Kaiser's close friend in America and that your family for many years has maintained a castle in Germany."
It did not require very much keenness of intellect on the part of Mr. Busch to shoot both Mr. Lasker's defensive and his offensive full of holes, and he did so in a letter which was both logical and witty, and did it so well that we quote the three following paragraphs:
"On our behalf, I admit the correctness of your charge that we are selfish in that we seek to again have the lawful right to manufacture beer. If this is selfishness, let it go at that. We, in that respect at least, have the Shipping Board as an example. The Shipping Board desires to maintain the value as a going business of the Government's investment in merchant ships, while we are selfish in hoping that our investment of many millions may be saved through a restoration of the lawful rights to partake of wholesome beer.
"You suggest that we do not come to the bar of public opinion with clean hands. It has cost us millions of dollars to keep them clean, and we remind you that we have in this correspondence repeated our demand for a Congressional investigation.
"The temperature in my office is well above ninety, and the law prohibits me from making here in America a glass of whiskeye beer, such as my grandfather, Adolphus Busch, made famous over the world as an American product. Yet as I write I contemplate the Shipping Board approving vouchers for the disbursement of American Government money from the Treasury in payment for German and British beers and wines to be sold by our Government at a profit. The prospect does not, I assure you, tend to lower the temperature."
The whole situation is a ludricrous one, and it is more so because it grows out of what is really a serious matter. It is much like the comedy scenes in Shakespearean tragedies. Here we have the government of the United States spending millions upon millions of dollars to enforce the Volstead Act throughout the length and breadth of the land and yet that same government, selling wines and whiskies on its own ships in order to make a few hundred thousand dollars profit which will enable it to compete with the ships of other nations. It is really absurd and as Mr. Busch points out, a still greater absurdity lies in the fact that the government is not in any sense living up to the theory of protection and thereby patronizing home industries. The beers and wines and liquors which it sells on its ships it purchases from foreign manufacturers.
The government will need a stronger defense than Chairman Lasker has thus fair put up. It will require the brain of none less than Elihu Root to get it out of its awkward position. For the government to spend millions of dollars to enforce prohibition on land and then turn bootlegger to make a few hundred thousand dollars on its own ships at sea is the biggest joke to which the Eighteenth Amendment has yet been subjected.

Some weeks ago we went to hear the Philharmonic Orchestra play Beethoven's "Ninth Symphony."
The philharmonic is the greatest symphony orchestra in this country, with the possible exception of the Boston Symphony Orchestra, and we think it is the oldest. We have hot the dates at hand but we believe it has been in existence for eighty or ninety years.
The Philharmonic consists of one hundred and two performers. These do not include the officers of the Orchestra; and in that whole list of artists there is only one American name, and that is F. L. Smith, who is listed among the first violins. The list of
performers is made up of names-which show that the artists are all of foreign birth of descent. These names are Italian, German, Polish, French, and other nations we know not of. As examples: Guidi, Gatterdam, Tushinsky, Durieux, Jaenicke, Ziporkin and Roelofsma.
While we were waiting for the concert to begin, we read the personnel of the Philharmonic over several times and wondered how Mr. Smith ever got into that company, and then we begap to suspect that perhaps after all his name was not really Smith but Schmidt, and we wondered upon the absence of Americans in this galaxy of great musicians that is the boast of New York City.
Why are there no Americans in such an organization? Is it that they have not the artistic ability to become sufficiently proficient, or is it that the average American, although professing to enjoy music, is somewhat ashamed of actually being an artist? Does he somehow feel that the concert master of the Philharmonic is after all only a fiddler and that being a fiddler is something effeminate and beneath the dignity of a red-blooded American citizen? Or is the absence of American members in the great Philharmonic Orchestra due to the fact that Americans generally consider it a greater success in life to be a plumber earning ten dollars a day than to be an interpreter of symphonies at a smaller wage?
Whatever the reason, Americans as performers have no part in the musical organization which is the boast of New York City.

Colored Americans should never cease in their efforts to have the newspapers of the country discontinue printing "Negro" headlines. This matter is forced upon our attention again by a glaring example in the New York "World" which in so many respects is fair and friendly toward the race.
In an issue of this week the "World" heads an article, "Negroes Attack Couple in Park." It is difficult to understand how the Managing Editor of the "World" does not see that this is a gross injustice to colored people. No other race or group is thus headlined in accounts of crime. It is inconceivable to think of any metropolitan newspaper saying in headlines: "Irish Attack Couple in Park," or "Jews Attack Couple in Park," or even "Germans Attack Couple in Park."
This continual headlirang of crimes committed by colored men has the effect of coupling the Negro and crime in the public mind. It is a very simple psychological process. As Mr. William Pickens has said, "If every time a red-headed man committed a crime the papers heralded, 'Red-headed Man Commits Murder,' 'Red-headed Man Commits Burglary,' 'Red-headed Man Attacks Woman,' it would not be long before the public mind would reach a stage which would make it easy to lynch a red-headed man on sight."
If in the account of crime it becomes necessary to designate the race or group of the person accused, it ought to be done in the body of the article and not at all if such information is not essential. Colored people everywhere should write letters to editors of newspapers protesting against this practice.
EQUALITY-OF OPPORTUNITY. One of the best things said by President Harding was when he advocated equality of opportunity for the race, economically and politically. A concrete example of the benefits to be derived from such a policy was afforded by the action of Postmaster Morgan of New York in promoting Assistant Superintendent Alexander King to the position of Superintendent of the College Station branch post office. This promotion has been earned by Mr. King, as his record for efficiency and devotion to duty amply demonstrated.
two-thirds of the entire crop of Texas being produced by colored farm labor.
In view of this encouraging resume of race progress, especially as it relates to Galveston, it is discouraging to have to record the violent outbreaks of mob law and rioting that have recently occurred in Texas. One theory advanced by those familiar with the situation is that envy and jealousy engendered by the material prosperity of the Negro lie at the bottom of these outbreaks of savagery.
We trust that this promotion signifies a new era in the postal administration, whereby color or race will no longer prove a bar to equal advancement for the men in service who have proved their merit and fitness. Nearly a quarter of a century ago the late William H. Dupree was appointed supreintendent of Station A, in Boston, which post he held for many years with conspicuous merit. But the advent of the Wilson administration, with Burleson of Texas as Postmaster General, was a damper to the advancement of colored employees. Indeed, many were either reduced in rank and pay or dismissed on any possible pretext.
Postmaster Morgan is to be commended for having done the right thing in making this practical application of the President's policy. There are many heads of departments in the Federal service who would find ample justification for the recognition of some of the men of the race who have spent years in working for the government, without the promotion that their records warrant. Let us have the equality of opportunity in all branches of government service that the President recommended.
June 19 marked the fifty-seventh anniversary of race freedom in Texas, where it has been the custom to celebrate emancipation at various points throughout the State every year on that date. In hosting this event the Galveston City Times said:
In Galveston 57 years ago all colored men and women were held slaves. Today ten thousand are free and have 28 churches, four schools, 1 Catholic and three public schools, in all nearly 1500 school children attending. Homes owned and other real estate, personal property to the estimated value of half a million dollars in Galveston, and county of Galveston. More than 120 engaged in business enterprises and professions. The total wealth holdings of the whole population have been carefully estimated at one million dollars today, but 57 years ago not one dollar. Such is progress.
Full love of the colored people's hearts go out in peace for good will of all the whites of Galveston. More than 2,500 colored men work on the Galveston Waird Company property during the busy season and a gracious spirit of harmony exists in the community between the races. In Texas today there are nearly one million free Negroes; one fifth of the total population; the total wealth of them in the state is now placed at one hundred million dollars upon estimate. Over 300,000 children in schools, a few thousand chrysleres, several thousand schools, two state educational institutions and more; that diverse demographic groups and just

One theory advanced by those familiar with the situation is that envy and jealousy engendered by the material prosperity of the Negro lie at the bottom of these outbreaks of savagery.
Kerwin, the town where the recent lynchings and burnings were held is located in a section where new oil developments were taking place. This fact attracted numerous prospectors and the human riffraff flocking to such challenges for exploitation. Disappointed at finding most of the oil lands owned by Negroes, who were profiting by the royalties received for their farms, the newcomers nursed their resentment against the good fortune of those owners. When the opportunity came to vent their spleen against the race, they did it in a most horrible and savage manner.
Texas is a state where conditions and opportunities vary to a puzzling degree, as may be seen by the contrast between Galveston and Kerwin.

The Birmingham Reporter notes with approval a forward movement on the part of the fraternal organizations in Alabama. It says:
The orders are addressing themselves to a very constructive program in securing property, building homes and donating to educational institutions. The Pythians have bought and paid for a building estimated at two hundred and fifty thousand dollars, located almost in the center of the downtown district of the city of Birmingham; and have pledged themselves in one donation to the Tuggle Institute for ten thousand dollars, and they are working mightily in other directions for the security and guarantee to policy holders.
The Masons have in recent months started a building program; they have purchased one of the most attractive sites in the city of Birmingham and are now busily engaged in directing their building, which promises to eclipse any effort of Negro organizations in the South.
The Eastern Stars are rapidly increasing in their fraternal work and are to be complimented for the manner in which they are handling things and caring for the membership.
The Masonic Templers is another big organization that is making an admirable record in the state and have purchased a beautiful piece of property and a three-story building, in Montgomery, Ala.
Apart from the fraternal features of the many beneficial organizations supported by the race, they have been of great value in furnishing an object lesson as to the benefits to be derived from cooperative effort. The principle of cooperation should now be extended to business and commercial enterprises.

NEGRO SAVED THE UNION.
Editor of THE NEW YORK ACE.
It is not wise to find fault with Mr. Harding for telling the Youth respect to Abraham Lincoln and cipation. Whatever may have Mr. Lincoln's personal views with respect to slavery he had but enmity and purpose in his war effort, and that was the preservation of the Union's historical fact so plain can not be questioned.
The Negro saved the Union, and doing as much, won his own freedom. This point is seldom stressed. So after Negroes got into the army, in large numbers, "their war were turned into "Northeastern" until the Union triumphed completely through the large Negro reinforcements. Nothing can be plainer than the fact that following the close of the civil war, Mr. Lincoln endeavored to leave the matter of "franchise" for the Negro with the white people of the South states. The man who fought Mr. Lincoln and his policy on the threat of Congress to the latter end, was Henry Winter Davis of Maryland. It was Henry Winter Davis who elected a Maryland Legislature, had that Legislature call a Constitution, constitution, and in the new constitution never excluded slavery from the State of Maryland. It was ratified on the 15th of October, 1864; and thus the slaves of Maryland were made "freemen" not by Mr. Lincoln's proclamation, but by the sovereign State of Maryland itself.
Mr. Davis asserted that the Negro "is a man." He had proved his method at the point of the bayenet, the line of battle, alongside of armed white men, charging just as deep into the heart of the enemy's ranks as his white brethren, vindicating his right to manhood by the exercise of the highest prepositive of man-fearlessness in the presence of eternity and of death which leads him there. Said Davis again: "When Negroes become free, they become a part of the nation, and to extracise them is to sanction a principle fatal to American free government." To the objection that Negroes are not intelligent enough to vote, Davis said: "I have seen about as much of Negroes as any of you have lived near them, and I suppose have as much prejudice towards them as any of you; but to talk of this, after we have had to call them to our aid in putting down the rebellion, is either driveling folly or infinite meanness."
Davis admitted that "nothing is more true than that the question of suffrage belongs to the states, but it is equally true that Congress is the exclusive judge of the compatibility of their solution of it with republican principles. The states have the right to prescribe who shall vote, but they have no right to to exercise it as to create an obligatory or an arbitrary instead of a republican form of government and its judgement isunal and conclusive on all departments, government. This judgment duty of the Presid
At that time, the Republicans passed two-thirds of both houses of Congress, so that they could do what they thought right. "He said Davis," The President deserts those who elected him for the votes and policy of their opponents, we must break the coalition at any cost." He felt that it was safe to dream that the South would itself, ever give either suffrage or equality before the law, and now is only time to compel it.

the editor, in commenting upon an article by W. Forrest Cogart, in the indianapolis Freeman, under the caption "The Origin of the White Man among other things said:
"In the mean time something should be done in the way of domestic missions, to bring the light of Christianity and Civilization to those communities where mob violence and lynching are popular diversions."
For some time we have noted how much delight the important position given by Mr Moore to Christianity and the ministry in the affairs of nation. That there is a Supreme Being to whom we are indebted for our existence in a theory almost universally acknowledged. That the Bible is the new word of God—a record of His will and His dealings with mankind responsively, is a claim which carries almost as much weight as the former. In the Bible it is plainly and definitely stated as to what our relations to God should be; that it, what we should know, be do, have. If we would take the pains to study our Bibles prayerfully—especially such passages as Genesis 18:19; Deutonomy 3, 33; 4, 10, 12; 13; Providence 16:4; Isaiah 43:7; Romant 11, 36; john 1, 3; 43:13; 14; Mirah 6,8; John 15,5 and subsequently direct our loyalties accordingly a marvellous change in the attitude of man towards man would be wrought in a short while. You let editor Moore and the other great laymen who have the ear of the public, and who possess facilities for depressing religious intelligence, empiric vital Christianity as wisely and realistically as they have emphasized our great forces, and the Negro will come into his own within a decade. The great New York Age could not be dedicated to a more sacred and important task than that of urging our people to return to the Lord with all their heart.

Lydia Mason Welcomed Home By Appreciative Friends
The Second Sunday Afternoon Matinee Recital under auspices of the Holloway Music Exchange, June 25, at 4:30 o'clock, at St. Mark's Hall, West 138th st. in the nature of a welcome home to Miss Lydia Mason, of 45 West 138th st., the young pianist who is a student at Fisk University, Nashville, Tennessee, a special music student under a scholarship granted her by the Fisk University Club of Greater New York. Miss Mason has just concluded her examination at the famous southern educational institution, and the Holcornite institution had her as the honor guise at its second affair. This Sunday the rental could appropriately be referred to as a musical intimate, as she is an atmosphere of intimacy and informality about it that was decidedly present. At the same time the strictest attention was paid to the preserving of the protected environment, and the result achieved was distinctly agreeable.
With Miss Mason as the honor artist guest, the supporting artists were Mary Hoyt, the brilliant young cellist, a student of Willeke, at the Institute of Music Art, Paul Roheson, the robust young basso, who, by the way, has just awarded his law degree by Columbia University, and who sailed Sunday this week for London, England, where he is to appear in a production of Mary Hoyt Wiborg's play, "Taboo" with Mrs Patrick Campbell, England, distinguished tragedienne; and Melville W. Charlton, A. A. G. O.,
The program was delayed for fifteen minutes in starting, due to conditions that had to be overcome. From the first number to the last, the recital was enclosed. The audience was small, but unusually appreciative. The musical outfits were as follows:

was somewhat tractor than had been the case in former times. It is to be explained by the fact that her work in music at Fink has a greater extent than ever before, to theoretical studies rather than building up of a concert repertoire. But this in no way detracts and distracts of her work. As an encore following the first performance a magnificent sheaf of gorgeous roses, she played spin walks.

Jesse A. Shipp, Jr. possessed a pleasing personality and was well liked by everyone. He was public spirited and at all times willingly gave his services in the interest of churches and charitable organizations.
Mme. Lula Robinson Jones sang on Monday night, June 26, in a concert at Newman Memorial M. E. Church. Herkimer street and Russell place Brooklyn, promoted by Mrs. Bielaski in interest of that church's rally. A goodly audience was pleased with Mrs. Jones' singing. She gave two groups her final number, "Gute Nacht." (Stein), in German. Mme. Leah Kate Walker was the accompanist and her work was commendable. Several numbers were rendered by local talent, two especially being worthy of mention. Mrs. Feda Brooks, soprano, sang Rosamond Johnson's "Lil' Gal," with splendid quality of voice, disclosing an organ which ought be given serious training.

Boston, Mass.—A citizens' committee and committee of arrangements for the fifteenth annual convention of the National Equal Rights League, Rev M. A. N. Shaw, president, which is to convene here July 4 to 10, is making arrangements for a silent antlining parade from Frederick Douglas Square to Fanahl Hall, the "Grade of Liberty."

POLICE BLACKJACKS BRING DEATH TO MAN
that a man was being killed by the police. She was told that it would be stopped.
The sounds, however, did not cease, and she called up after an interval and renewed her complaint. This time she says she was informed that the man was getting what he deserved. "Do you know what he has done?" she says she was asked. Then she was told that the prisoner had killed a policeman.
It is note dthat in every report of this case in the daily papers, there has been a reference to the Luther Boddy case, in which two officers were shot and killed on 135th street, near the station house, on January 5. Statements have also been made to the effect that Policeman Motz was shot and killed under similar conditions in the same station house last January by Frank Whaley, a New Jersey Negro, who since been adjudged insane and committed to the asylum. This is incorrect. Motz was not of the 135th street station and he was shot in another station further down town.
It is asserted by many law-abiding and unprejudiced citizens that police brutality is too much in evidence in the handling of prisoners, and that members of the underworld who are placed under arrest are incited to desperation by a knowledge of the rough treatment they are sure to be subjected to at the hands of the police. Application of the socalled "third degree" to prisoners in an attempt to force confession or extract information supposedly in their possession is absolutely without the pale of law, it is declared by those acquainted with legal stipulations, but it is asserted that police officers in the various precincts have no hesitancy in resorting to the most brutal methods once an arrest has been made.
In the present case, Dent, the prisoner, is dead and there was no opportunity to secure an ante-mortem statement from him, as the officers' blackjacks had been used to such an extent that he was beaten into unconsciousness and died while in that condition. Only statements by the police officers are available and of course, it is pointed out by persons commenting on the case, their testimony is bound to be of such a nature as to justify their acts.
It is suggested that strict investigations by municipal authorities, or by the State, if necessary, would reveal such conditions in the police department as would make radical reforms absolutely necessary. It is especially desirable that this should be done at once, for it would have the effect of distinguishing the police officers who do not pursue these brutal tactics, and cause them to stand clear in the eyes of the public from the group of men on the force whose brutal and ruthless methods have made their names

THE STAGE AND ATHLETICS
Glenn & Jenkins are Guests of Honor at Rooms of C. V. B. A. on Evening Prior to Sailing to Fill Six Weeks' Contract Overseas
The C. V. B. A. headquarters at 424 Lenox avenue was the scene of one of the liveliest and most agreeable gatherings theatrical folks have participated in for a long time, when a group of their friends assembled on Monday night, June 26. to give a send-off to Glenn & Jenkins, headline vaudeville performers, who sailed on Tuesday, on board the Cunarder, the Maurentania, for London and Paris
More than a hundred of the leading artists of the profession, with many of the lesser lights, were present in the rooms at 11.30 p.m., when Manager "Bob" Slater opened the festivities by beginning to serve a lunch, the principal dish consisting of his famous Louisiana concoction, Creole gumbo. Accompanying this was another dish which Mr. Slater has made famous, Spaghetti ala Espaniola, and there was an ample supply of the various relishes suitable for such a menu, down to and including, especially the "down to" part,—an ample supply of liquid refreshments, served by James Slater, secretary of the C. V. B. A. organization. Glenn & Jenkins, long recognized as two of the race's leading artists, are under contract for a six weeks' appearance in London, to be followed by two weeks in Paris. But it is quite probable that these engagements will prove to be simply entering wedges to European recognition of their ability.
Following the supper, whichews served to some 125 guests, the various artists present gave an impromptu program, embracing all sorts of performances. Musical numbers, dance exhibitions, acrobatic stunts, and everything else imaginable, followed in bewildering succession until the wee hours of the morn. And when the party dispersed, it was only for the short period which would elapse until the steamer sailed at noon, for practically the whole bunch was on hand at the Cunard pier at foot of 14th street when the big Mauretania liner was warped out into the stream and started its rapid flight across the Atlantic to England's shores.
Members of the Shuffle Along" and "Strut, Miss Lizzie" companies, and the Plantation and Reisenwebers' Revue were present, and some of the guests were Mrs. Blanche Thompson Glenn and Mrs. Jenkins, wives of the guests of honor; Miss Irene Clark, Charles Gilpin, N. S. Spiller, Henry Creamer, Mr. and Mrs. Matt Housley, Mr. and Mrs. Clint Taylor, Miss Artiebelle Williams, Julius Glenn, Misss Lily Woods, Henfred, Mr. and Mrs. Joe Sheftel, Sid Perrin, Henry Saparo, Miss Ada Smith, Joe Jordan, Mrs. Beatrice Williams, Miss Cora Green, Mrs. Daisy Saparo, N. D. Brascher, of the Negro Associated Press, Washington; James M. White, president White Music Publishing Co., Boston; J. A. Jackson of the Billboard, and others.

(Continued from First FAST
White supplied the necessary pep as end men, and received valuabel assistance from Myra Belasco, Agnes Steber, Viva Backus, Gladys Walton, Blanche Levy, Anice Cotton, Pheon Hood and Beatrice Backus, who formed the circle.
After rthe opening chorus a dash of professional flavor was given the bill by Frederica Washington, who sang "He may be your man," and was forced to respond to an encore. Miss Washington is one of the stage's newest recruits, having joined the revue at Reisenweber's only a few evenings ago.
Elsie Hunter, in "You've Had Your Day," was the next applause getter and was followed by Anita Bullock, who sang "California."
Dorothy Embry and Pheon Hood, in "Everybody Step," made it evident to all present that they are ripe for a stage debut if they (as well as their parents) see fit. Take to the stage like a duck to water.
Deborah Jones and Artrella Levy, in their rendition of "Sally," Mildred Backus in "Sweet Man of Mine" and "I'm Just Wild About Harry," and Florence Grasty in "Just a Little Love Song," were specialties, in which the audience voiced its appreciation in handclapping.
Daisy White did a buck dance which stamped her as a comer and Katherine Robinson followed in a wing dance also productive of encores which left no doubt that she, too, could earn her daily bread in the realm of theatricals.
Marion Moore artistically put over "Bon Bon Buddy," reminding many of the days of Williams & Walker when first George Walker made the song famous and which, upon his retirement from the stage, was sung by Aida Overton Walker. The applause was of such a generous nature Miss Moore found it necessary to repeat the impersonation. Marion Moore, of all the buds of promise in Harlem, appears to be the most versatile. She has displayed more than ordinary ability as an exponent of the drama, songs and dances pleasingly and only recently, was successfully screened as the central figure in a photo play.
Marguerite White and Menta Turner temporarily created a Spanish atmosphere in their dance, the Valentino tango.
The laughing hit of the show was the impersonation of Miller Lyles by Bessie Beardon and Edith McAllister, who both appeared in black face and created merriment in their boxing scene.
Andrew A. Copeland put the finishing vocal touches to the program by singing "Pick Me Up and Lay Me Down in Dear Old Newland" and "Some Sunny Day." Usual encores were in order.
In mentioning possibilities of the near future, the work of global Jones at the piano should not be overlooked. She directed musical numbers like a veteran and there were few, if any, waits. Miss Jones, who is a resident of Columbus, Ohio, is dancing dancing under one of New York's leading terpsichorean meters. With all due respects to her ambitions as a dancer, it cannot be denied that Miss Jones is assured of a successful career as a musician if she so elects.
After the performance there was dancing. Music was furnished by Duncan Johnson's Orchestra, under the direction of E. Gilbert Johnson.
Many well known residents of Manhattan, Brooklyn and New York occupied boxes.
The biggest attraction ever presented in Harlem, Fremont Millis and "The Plantation Revue," with a supporting cast of several of the beat, outdurelle acts in the country, is the attraction at the Lafayette Theatre this and next week. No show in the past year has proved so popular with theatre-goers in Harlem. Every performance has been given before a capacity house. "The Plantation Revue" is composed of a number of singing and dancing acts based on life among Negroes in the South, with an all-star cast headed by Florence Millis, who started in with "Shuffle Along" several months ago. A feature of the revue is the excellent jazz orchestra under the leadership of Will Voddey. Johnnie Dunn opens the revue with "The bugle call blues," which for eccentric work with a cornet, cannot be beaten. The rendition of "Old Black Joe" and a "Southern Hobby" by the Plantation Quartet, with U. S. Thompson and Lew Keare, won an enthusiastic rception. Edith Wilson, a Columbia record star, and the Six Dixie Vamps took the house by storm with the singing of "Robert E. Lee." Chappelle and Stinnettne sang "Southland" and "Mandy," in excellent voice, and were well received.
"Hawaiian Night in Dixieland" by Florence Mills and the six Dixieland put the house in an uproar, and it was several minutes before the applause subsided. Miss Mills was showered with flowers, and was called back a half dozen times. After a specialty number by U.S. Thompson and Edith Wilson, the revue closed with "Minstrels on Parade" by the entire company. Shelton Brook, the popular comedian and song writer, headed the additional vaudeville numbers. The Seven Musical Spillers, direct from the Winter Garden, and the Tasmania Duo, made up the additional numbers. Each of these numbers proved popular and had to be repeated several times.
"The Plantation Revue" has just closed a run of several months at the Winter Garden on Broadway. It was produced and staged by Lee Leslie, and the Lyrics and music were furnished by Roy Turk and Russel J. Robinson.

BASEBALL
Lincoln Giants vs Bushwicks.
The Lincoln Giants will leave their home ground, Protectory Oval, on Sunday afternoon and will travel to Dexter Park near the Cypress Hills "L" station Brooklyn to play the crack Bushwicks a double header. This will be the first time that the Lincoln Giants have ever played the Bushwicks team and considerable interest is attached to these games as the Bushwicks are considered the peer of the semi-finals in Brooklyn while the Lincoln Giants were always known as the best team in New York.
In-Sunday's contest, Joe Williams will be pitted against either Big Jeff Tesreau or Willie Kellcher; who shut the Royal Giants out 3-0 on Sunday last.
On July 4th another big game for the colored championship will be played at Dexter Park when the Lincoln Giants of New York clash with the Cuban Bats of Havana Cuba.
Becharacha Win Two
The Bacharach Giants distinguished themselves again Sunday. Jury 23, at New York Oval, their home grounds, by winning both ends of a pep bill. In the first they defeated the Fort South Philadelphia team of Philadelphia by the score of 6 to 2. In the bargain engagement the Phillipsburg, N. Y., club, their victim to the tune of 61. Saturday afternoon, June 24, at East New York Oval, East New York, the Bacharach Giants defeated the Philadelphia team in a ten inning contest 6 to 0.
attraction at the Oval will be Ed. Bolden's Hilldale team in a doubleheader. It will be remembered Hilldale licked the Bacharachs when they appeared here several weeks ago. SAYS DEMPSEY WILL ACCEPT WILLS BOUT
Jack Dempsey, world's heavyweight champion, will sign articles to defend his laurels, against Harry Wills, the New Orleans Negro who is conceded to be the foremost title contender, just as soon as some promoter steps forward in control of a site where such a battle could be held without danger of interference from acquitters or State authorities. Jack Kearns, manager of the champion, made this statement yesterday upon his arrival here from Los Angeles by way of Chicago. Kearns denied that he had signed articles for a Dempsey-Wills hustle, or that he had even agreed to terms for such a contest. The champion's manager declared that the bout would not be closed until guarantees of immunity from official interference were forthcoming.
Dempsey's financial terms will be easily settled, according to Kearns. The champion's manager expressed readiness to gamble with any promoter who could secure official sanction for a Dempsey-Willis bounty. Just what percentage would demanded Kearns would not state. The champion's however would have to compare with a guaranteed $50,000, if not in excess of that amount.
In addition to these rather indefinite statements, Kearns disguised some definite information with regard to the champion's immediate plans. Dempsey, Kearns says, positively will defend his title in a ring on bob Lonar DWI. His opponent will be either less Willard, who was battered into a helpless bulk by Dempsey at Toledo three years ago; Bell Brennan, who has twice gone down before the blows of the champion; Fred Fulton, who was knocked out in seventeen seconds or so, at Harrison before Dempsey became champion; Tom Gibson, who bore of light-heavyweight; Harry Greb of light-heavyweight; light-heavyweight champion. Dempsey will fight at Michigan City, IN, in a scheduled ten-round no-decision contest. Articles for this proposed match have not yet been signed by Kearns. He has, however, agreed to term offered by Promoter Floyd Fitzsimons, and is prepared to sign with Fitzsimons selects the titleholder's opponent.
Champion's Exhibitions
Up to Labor Day Dempsey will be busy with exhibitions. Kearns has arranged a tour which will carry the champion and a score of sparring partners through New England States, the Southwest, Middle West and Canada Dempsey is on route to this city now. He is expected here either Sunday or Monday. The champion looks fine and weighs about 192 or 193 pounds, as a consequence of three weeks' training on the coast. The tour is scheduled to start at Boston either on June 29 or 30. The champion is booked for Oklahoma City on July 3, Omaha on July 4 and Wichita, Kan on July 5. Exhibitions are contagious in five Canadian cities, too. Kearns plans to see Tex Rickard this afternoon the conference between marathon and sparring champions Dempsey will match contagious. The possibility of a return clash between Dempsey and Wiltford will also be discussed. Rickard plans to arrange a Dempsey-Wiltford battle for the Fall in Jersey City, despite the fact that boxing crises generally have commenced the proposed match. The promoter said yesterday that he would arrange with about 10 of the champion and champion agreed to register in a percentage basis. Under no circumstances Rickard said would be required to a guarantee either of the principals.
Concedea Public Demand
"I am watched that there is a public demand for a bout between Dempsey and Willis, and I am ready to sign articles for the champion," said Kearny in discussing the general situation. "I must first be assured that the match can be held without danger of interference. If a promoter will guarantee a place where he can hold the battle without official opposition, I will talk terms without hesitation. My terms will be easily acceptable, too, in my estimation. I'll consent to the night on a percentage basis if I get the percentage to which I think Dempsey is entitled. But before I talk any terms I want to know positively that the match can be held.
I have been censured for asking $500,000 for Dempsey's end in a night with Wills. I deny that I made any such demand. But, even if I did, I don't thing such a demand exorbitant under the circumstances. Tex Rickard has cleared a profit of $1,500,000 in town nights which Dempsey fought under his supervision. For these nights Dempsey received exactly $327,500, an uneven ratio when you take into consideration the fact that Dempsey was the magnet on both occasions. I don't begrudge a promoter his profit. He deserves reward for the work and worry incident to conducting a big fight. But we have work and worry and expenses, too. For these reasons I am determined that Dempsey shall get what I consider a fair reward if he consents to fight: Wills. I am the champion's manager and business representative. I would be a poor businessman, if I agreed to terms which would give somebody other than the champion practically all the profits accruing from a bout in which his title is at stake.
Problem of a Site.
As I said before, the one big fight for Dempsey right now is against Wills. But you must remember there are many obstacles in the path of such a contest. The biggest thing is not the purse but the site. It's all right for critics to devote time and newspaper space to articles demanding that Dempsey meet Wills, but it's another proposition Sindings a place, where the bout can be held. Let some of the critics who have been lowest in condemning the champion and myself for evading Wills go out and secure a place, where the men can fight for a title and I'll sign without delay. I'm not dodging Wills. Neither is Dempsey. But I don't intend to sign for a bout and then tie my myself up and then have every opportunity through the obstacle and say the battle contests be held for the particular State. If I'm the New York State Admiral Commission, I'm not a prosecutor.
between Dempsey and Willis, there will not be much trouble in signing the match. We'll be found ready and willing. The New York Commission has notified us of a challenge issued by Willis, accompanied by a substantial forfeit. But the commission did not notify us that it would sanction such a match if I consented to sign for it. I don't intend to visit the commission. I don't garrant Willis challenge. I don't recognize the authority of the commission in the matter. Neither Dempsey no myself is licensed under the commission and the commission, therefore, has no jurisdiction over us, as I view the situation."
PLAINFIELD THEATRE
SUED BY LOUIS MOOSE
Elizabeth, N. J.—Because he could not get two orchestra seats for which he contended he had paid, Louis Moose of $29 Woodland Avenue, Plainfield, has entered in the District t Court here suit for $500 against Michael Connahan and Patrick Shannon, proprietors of the Plainfield Theatre. Moose alleges he bought two orchestra seats, but in the theatre was told to take chairs in a balcony box. He complained to the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People.

BRIDGES MHST RETURN
According to a decision handed down by Justice Erlanger in the Supreme Court, William Bridges, president and general manager, and Dr Alger Campbell secretary treasurer, respectively, of the National Negro Realty and Holding Co. must return to stockholders some twelve hundred shares of stock in that company which he owns, and to the proprietors of and divided up among themselves. In addition, the judge appointed a reference to check up the assets and liabilities of the company and report on wasteful expenditures.
A suit was instituted against the two officials by Thomas George and David Edwards, for themselves and other stockholders. An effort to have the matter settled by putting two of the dissatisfied stockholders on the board or directors, of the company was requested by Bridgeg, and his attorney, Maintenance Mark. The stockholders were represented by Attorney John William Smith at first, then by Annesthes Lennie L. George and Henry E. Cohen. Judge Erlanger's decision is that Bridges must surrender the stock to plaintiffs or pay for it at a cash value to be accepted by the retiree, and both strained from drawing salaries but bridges and Campbell are not only required to refund salaries which they already received. During the trial it developed that Bridges had transferred the challenge to Campbell, and part pay was made for a $700 settlement and Campbell, but Judge Erlanger declared that the journal was worth thirty cents.
Attorney George, at his office, 121
West 115th street, said a full report
was case and outcome would be
made to stockholders of the corporation.

The unwritten law against mixed bouts in hba State is the one big bloot to the present Boxing Commission's record. It is so manifestly unfair that the commission does not acknowledge that it exists. It is easy enough to understand why the white boxers draw a color line. Many of the Negroes are altogether too formidable. But why the Boxing Commission, which is doing its best to force ouraint hearted champions to fight, should raise the color line is beyond understanding.
The former Boxing Commission was the first to draw the color line. At that time Jack Johnson was busy getting into trouble and bringing disgrace upon himself and the sport. The rule was made only for the purpose of barring him. Johnson is gone now, so that reason no longer exists.
The only excuse offered for barring mixed excuses is that they tend to create race prejudice and riots. There never was a more ridiculous assumption than this. All sing history shows that there is no foundation for such a belief. Since the earliest days of the ring Negroes have met white men and there never was any trouble until Johnson appeared. If he had conducted himself out of the ring as he should have done there would, have been no trouble in his case. Neither Corbett nor Jeffries drew the color line when their ducky rides did not look too tough for them. Corbett, anxious to make a name for himself and force Sullivan to meet him, took on the great Peter Jackson and held him to a draw in 60 rounds. There was no race root after that historic battle Jackson conducted himself like a gentleman in and out of the ring and he was just as popular with the fans as any of the white fighters of his day.
Jeffries fought Jackson and another Negro name Hank Griffin. Both were easy for Jeff. Jackson had seen his best day and was in a physical decline, while Griffin never did amount to much. It was not until the formidable Johnson appeared that Jeff thought to avail himself of the color line excuse. He allowed his brother, Jack, to try out Johnson. The Negro knocked him out in five rounds. It was then that Jeff thought about the color line and when Johnson became too pressing in his demands he retired from the ring. Years later when he did not have a chance, money brought him back to take a beating. He always
had felt that Johnson had his number and when he got into the ring at Kern he was so frightened that he could not stand up without holding on to ropes.
Lankford Could Hit
Sam Lankford was a murderous whipper, but his doings never created a race riots although he met plains of white opponents. He fought Saman Ketchel, one of the greatest publicists of the ring ever had and everything was peaceful when the battle was over. Langford flattened Jim Barry, Jim Flynn and many a white setup. No results resulted. On the contrary the fans booked upon the "Boston Tar Baby" with the greatest respect.
Then there was Joe Woolcott, who fought Kid Lavigne, a popular idol in two occasions. Their battle at Massey was one of the most sanguinary affairs in ring history. The white boy suffered fearful-punishment, but stuck it out to the end. There was no demand for a ban on mixed bouts after that grunting engagement. Walcott was more popular than ever and when he knocked out Joe Choyoski he won still more favor. Walcott won and lost to Kid Carter. He also fought Philadelphia Jack O'Brien. Mysterious Billy Smith, Honey Meyer and other prominent white boxers took out any race trouble resulting.
Joe Gans fought such prominent men as Jimmy Britt, Battling Nelson and Frank Erne. Race prejudice was not apparent when he entered the race to face a white rival although in the majority of cases the crowd knew the white man was due to be battled.
Dixon Was Popular.
It is seldom that a more popular bear has appeared than little George Dixon. He took part in the famous three-dayistic tournament held at New Orleans in 1892. George was matched with Jack Skelly and won in eight rounds. Although the fight took place in the south, the police were not called upon to quell any race riots. Nothing in the nature of a disturbance happened. Other white men that Dixon fought in various parts of the country were Young Corbett, Ahe Attell, Frank Emery, Terry McGovern, Young Griff and Solly Smith. In no case was race trouble created. There would be more today if the Boxing Commission would lift its abused ban on mixed bouts.
Bishops' Council Holds 70th Session
Prelates of A.M.E. Connection Meet in New York City June 18-23
50th Anniversary of Financial Board Celebrated With Remarkable Showing of Funds Raised-Bishop Heard, Host
For the first time in fifty years the Bishops' Council of the African Methodist Episcopal Church met here on June 18 and were in session to the 23rd. The Council was the guest of the bishop of the First Episcopal District, the Rt. Rev. W. H. Heard, and of Bethel A. M. E. Church, its pastor, Rev. M. W. Thornton, and members.
Although the entire week was given over to the celebration of this event, the bishops did not assemble until Wednesday. At the opening meeting on Wednesday night the choir of Bethel A. M. E. Church of Wilmington, Del., rendered a musical, and addresses were delivered by Bishop Carey of Chicago and Rev. W. W. Lucas. Bishop Beckett of Brooklyn presided over this meeting.
Thursday morning marked the first business session of the Council, with the senior bishop, Rt. Rev. B. F. Lee of Wilberforce, Ohio, presiding. At this session the work of the church during the last year was reviewed, and an excellent session was preached by Bishop I. N. Ross of Washington, D. C., who pointed out the need of stronger men for leaders in the church and for the application of Christian principles in solving the problems of the world.
Welcomed by Citizens
The most interesting meeting of the session was on Thursday night when a citizen's committee welcomed the visiting ministers to the city, and the celebration of the fifth anniversary of the financial department of the church was held. The principal address of welcome was delivered by Commissioner Grace H. Whalen, on behalf of Mayor Helen Hulan, who sent requests for being unable to be present because of a sudden attack of indigestion.
Bishop William A. Fountain responded to the addresses of welcome on behalf of the Council, and made the most elemental speech of the session. He spoke out frankly for an organic union of all the colored Methodists. Bishop W. D. Chapelle of South Carolina, also made response.
Following these addresses, it was some time before the audience could be quieted as with Bishop Fountain and Bishop Chippeau had spoken eloquently in denation of sentiments expressed in the welcome addresses, which implied the Negroes in the South were in desatec need of help from the race in New York.
Six and a Half Millions Raised.
Secretary Hawkins informed the Council that he was sponsoring a plan by which the denomination would raise $50,000 for a program of larger work, intended to benefit the race in all sections of the country, and which would make in better pay for the ministry, the establishment or additional schools and the broadening of the foreign mission work.

The sermon on Children's Day was preached by the pastor, Dr. Brown. The entire Sunday-school Board, consisting of officers and teachers, was present and seated in a body. The sermon by the pastor was highly appropriate to the occasion and was spiritually inspiring to all present. At the conclusion of the sermon six persons were received into the church.
At 2 o'clock, the Sunday-school hour, the primary department of the Sunday-school rendered its part of the Children's Day program. Much credit is due Mary D. Martin' organist of that department, for the excellent manner in which this program was rendered by the primary children and the tiny soots.

At 8 p. m. the Children's Day program of the adult, senior and intermediate departments was rendered under the supervision of Mrs. Bertha DesVerney. This program consisted of a Carnival of Flowers which was beautifully and pleasingly rendered. This program was prepared by Mrs. DesVerney and Mrs. Stone, who spared no pains in laboring with the children to make observance of Children's Day this year a grand spectacle.
Immediately following the program was the final report of the auxiliaries on the building fund rally and the burning of the mortgage on the church. A large number of members and friends were present to witness this event. James E. Nixon lighted the match and the raftacke holding the paper was held by Mrs. Pamie VanRisken Stuars and Mrs. K. V. C.

A good congregation greeted Pastor Bolden at the 11 o'clock service on last Sunday. The sermon was taken from Acts 1:1-2. "The former treative have I made, O, Theopolis, of all that Jesus began both to do and teach, until the day in which he was taken up, after that he through the Holy Ghost had given commandments unto the apostles whom He had chosen." Pastor Bolden said that these verses show that apostle Luke, who is reported to have been the author of the Book of Acts, states his purpose, for writing this book in the first few verses. He was greatly interested in a friend, and this friend was of such importance that he gives him all the information possible upon the subject of our Lord, the Emmanuel, and His work. Holy Ghost among apostles. He endeavored to the divinity of Him, the reality of His resurrection and the redemption of His promise after His resurrection. A thoughtful consideration of these fact will reveal to us his power and presence of our Lord in our lives today.
The uncourse was a wonderful one, filled with the spirit and power of the Holy Ghost. Rev. Hogans assisted in the services.
Sunday-school had a large attendance of scholars, officers and teachers. Supt. Hogans conducted the opening exercises and the lesson review.

At the evening service at 8 o'clock a large crowd was present, and listened to the sermon filled with spiritual spirit or by the pastor from Acts 1.3, "To whom also he showed himself alive after his passion by many infallible proofs, being seen of them forty days and speaking of the things pertaining to the Kingdom of God." The subject was "A Purpose." At the conclusion of the sermon the pastor presented Rev. Smith who spoke of this trip to Athens, where of the conditions existing there Excellent music was added by the choir. Dinner was served during the day by members of the Missionary Society.

Mrs. Copeland read a part of the "Holy Mariner. Refreshments were served at the conclusion of the meeting.
Union Baptist Church.
The services in the morning at our church was well attended. The audience was somewhat slow in gathering due to the fact there were three services during the day. Miss Nannie H. Burroughs, president of the Women's and Girls' National Training School at Washington, D. C., was the speaker. On presenting her to the audience, the pastor stated that to appreciate the Burroughs, one would have seen the school and have had idle time of the work she was doing there in training our girls along the lines of elementary and domestic sciences. She made an eloquent address and closed with a plea for the Old Folk's Home and the education of youth. $156 was laid upon the table while she made the plea.
At the close of the services, the Sunday-school, under direction of W. H. Johnson, paraded to Mr. J. Baptist Church in town and held a union meeting for the benefit of mission and educational work. Our school reported $100.35 there.

DEAR BOBBIE
Just one more day to strive to rise above small troubles, and maybe to break their earth-forged boods, at least to dare to face the future and to gladly live. Loyal, and cheerful facing toward the light for truth, fear, and joy, feel in spite of all the heights which we can never scale. In all the many tests in which we dangled.
That our deep love-more deep, and pure and strong that we love, through our failures, doubts and fears did come to know. The dreary clouds hide the sun through the clouds, through the
The sweet, violet, struggling through dead leaves, still shows its blue. And so we trust, though oft we strike Love's chord with clumsy hand.

In the evening, Rev. M. W. Chair, Jr. of Roanovia, Va. was the occupant of the pupit and preached a very timely and forceful sermon to the Ushers' Association, who were the guests of the church.
Rev. Clair is in the son of Bishop M. W. Clair, Methodist Episcopal bishop of Liberia, West Africa. Tux of his able sermon was Isaiah 50th chapter 1st part of 1st verse. Theme, "Things that make a church great."

Fleet St. Church Brooklyn
An appreciative audience heard Dr. Brown Sunday morning. This was Dr. Brown's initial sermon beginning the conference year, and as a natural consequence his theme, "Conforming to God's thoughts," was methodical and filled with touchstones for the aggrieved thinker. His spoken words are a rare number of Juveniles of the Order of Son's and Daughters to Moses.
At 7:45, his theme, "Perfect Peace the result of faith in God," was another strong and philosophical, sermon. Dr. Brown enters upon his work, if possible, with more earnestness and a deeper conviction of his duty and needs of the community than heretofore, and because of that his program as offered on Tuesday night was more comprehensive and far reaching than the one previously offered. The special session of the quarterly conference convened on Tuesday. Following that a members' meeting, and the reorganization of the auxiliaries. When this is fully completed, the pastor will include himself for a few days, for a much needed rest.
Friday, June 30, the Florida Quartet of the Florida Industrial School will present a program of Spirituals, folk songs and select reading.
Among the visitors Sunday at the services was Miss Capehart of Edenton, N. C., sister to Mrs. W. C. Brown. The offering to the ew addition of the church will be made in three weeks.
Nazarene Church Brooklyn
Rev. H. H. Proctor filled his pulpit at both services last Sunday, speaking at the morning hour on the duty of each one to discover his special gift. improve it and use it for the common good; he expanded the thought to the race and the church. He held that the special gift of the colored race was religion, and by the refinement and practicalization of that gift they would lead the world. He held that the special gift of the church was service. At the evening hour he spoke on grace and grit. Lient. Henry H. Proctor, Jr., of Chicago, son of the pastor, told of the progress of our people in the West. He laid special stress on their material as against their educational and spiritual growth, emphasizing the need of the latter. George L. Johnson of Manhattan sang at the evening service.
Special interest will center about the services during the entire summer season, and the church will be open at all services, and during the week.
The pastor will fill his pulpit at both services Sunday, speaking at 11 a.m. on "The Interpretation of Church membership in terms of individual responsibility," and at the evening hour he will give a patriotic sermon in celebration of the Fourth of July, speaking on "The duties and rights of American citizens."
