HAS UNUSUAL HISTORY Bankers' Fire Insurance Co. of Durham, N. C., Has Resources of $300,000 STRONG DIRECTORATE Pres. Pearson, In First Interview, Tells what Company Has Done: (Special To The New York Age) Durham, N. C.—The phenomenal growth and development of the Bankers' Fire Insurance Co., which has its home office in Durham, marks an unusual expansion of Negro business activity. The president of the company, Dr. W. G. Pearson, has given to The New York Age his first interviews concerning the formation and organizing of the Bankers' Life, in the following signed statement: "This is the first utterance from me as president of the Bankers' Fire Insurance Company of Durham, North Carolina "It gives me a great deal of pleasure to say that a little more than two years ago two men happened to meet and began to talk of organizing a fire insurance company. The one soon found that the other had been thinking the same kind of thing for a long time. The one said, 'Let us do it.' The other said, 'I am with you.' So these two met the third man and after relating their story the third man said, 'It is a big idea. I shall be glad to cooperate.' "These three spoke to others of their immediate group in Durham and they all caught the vision, and faith. "The first formal meeting was called at the home of the gentleman who, after the organization was completed, was elected secretary-manager, William Gomer. "At the second meeting a permanent organization was formed at which time W. G. Pearson was elected president; C. C. Spaulding and Dr. A. M. Moore, vice-presidents; John M. Avery, treasurer, and the present executive committee consists of these officers, the secretary R. L. McDougal, Dr. A. J. Strong and E. R. Merrick. Deny Renaissance Are Properties Pres. Roach Objects to Statem Marcus Garvey and Demand Printed on First Page of T --- A statement contained in an article appearing in the Negro World of February 17, purporting to have been written and signed by Marcus Garvey, President General of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, charging that the buildings on Seventh avenue, 137th and 138th streets, known as the Renaissance Theatre and Renaissance Casino, are "the properties of industrious Jews who have sought an outlet for their surplus cash in the colored district," has aroused the indignation of William H. Roach, president of the Sarco Realty and Holding Co., Inc., and also of the R. Holding Co., Inc., two colored corporations which are owners of record of the properties referred to. Mr. Roach very promptly dictated a letter to the editor of the Negro World, calling attention to what he denominates a "gross misrepresentation of facts," and setting forth that ownership of the two buildings is vested in "two absolute Negro corporations," every share of whose hold is in by about five hundred colored stockholders—small investors. He states also that the directors are all colored and have been so from the date of incorporation. Mr. Roach declares that the debts to the two parcels of property are an record and can be traced back to date of purchase by the colored corporations, and that expenses for build- NEW YORK. N. Y., SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 24, 1923. been temporarily fitted up for church worship until the main auditorium is completed, which it is estimated will be in about ten weeks. The building which is nearing completion, and which will house Abyssinians' church and community house, is said to be the most costly edifice ever erected by colored people in America for religious worship. It represents an expenditure of $315,000, and the congregation has met every payment made up to the present without having made any general appeal to the public, or having given any entertainment. Dr. Powell and his officers are planning, however, to give the people of Marlem, as well, as other parts of Greater New York, an opportunity to assist in the work. They will be asked to contribute toward the cost of installing fixtures, seats, the organ, and other furniture. The organ alone will cost $10,000 the total cost for furnishings being set at about $25,000. This church and community house is being built for the public in general, and use of it will not be limited to its own congregation. CHARLOTTE BROWN PAID SIGNAL HONOR AT BOSTON MEETING Selected as One of Two Speakers On "Prayer Day" at Copeley Square Church. (Special to The New York Age) Boston, Mass. A signal honor has been paid to a young colored woman, Mrs. Charlotte Hawkins Brown, founder and principal of Palmer Memorial Institute, Sedalia, N. C., was selected as one of two speakers to address more than a thousand women who gathered in the New Old South Church, Copley Square, on February 16, the occasion being on interdenominational meeting on the day set apart for prayer. Mrs. Brown's address was on "America's Need for Prayer." The other speaker was a returned missionary from Turkey, and the second of Mrs. Brown came as a second choice to Maud Royden, the great English woman evangelist, now in this country. The New Old South is considered to be the most aristocratic Congregational church in America, and is situated under the shadow of Bishop Brooks's statue. Mrs. Brown returned on February 17 to Sedalia to attend a meeting of the board of trustees of Palmer Institute. This was an important occasion as the meeting took up the matter of affiliating with the American Missionary Association, the body which controls Fisk, Talladega, Straight and other distinguished educational institutions. Ford Dabney's Cousin Found Dead From Gas Washington, D. C. -- On Tuesday, February 13, J. H. Dabney, one of the best known Negro business men in Washington, was found dead in a gas-filled room in his home on 4th street. For years Mr. Dabney had conducted a prosperous undertaking establishment, having been a pioneer here in that business. He was a cousin to Ford Dabney, the well-known musician, who lives now at 318 West 138th street, New York City. All indications point to the fatality having been an accident. There is absolutely no reason for any other construction. Mr. Dabney's business was in good shape, he was in good health and spirits, and showed no evidence of worry or morbidness.

Hopper's Sons, was made by and contained the signatures only of the colored officers of the corporations. Reference is made to the fact that the accomplishment of these two companies is an outgrowth of a small house-cleaning business, Roach's Housecleaning Co. Inc., started by William H. Roach in November, 1917, which is still in operation. The language used in the article, to which Mr. Roach and his associates have taken exception, refers to comment made by Dr. W. E. B. DuBois concerning the Renaissance Theatre, and Canino. With reference to this comment, President Garvey wrote as follows: "DuBois knows he lies when he says that the premises herein referred to were built and are owned by black folks. They are the properties of industrious Jews who have sought an outlet for their surplus cash in the colored district." Mr. Roach demanded a retraction of these words, to be printed on the front page of the Negro World, failing which "will necessitate other means of redress for the interest of the Sarco Society and Holding Co, Inc., and the R. Holding Co." Fortune Telling Fakirs Swindle Greenport Couple Scheming Pair Hailed Before District Attorney and Held in $1,500 Bail to Appear Before Judge of Suffolk County, Charged With Swindling.

COL LITTLE GIVES MEDALS TO FRENCH On behalf of the Governor of the State of New York, Colonel Arthur Little, commanding 369th Infantry, New York National Guard, decorated six French officers with the State Conspicuous Service Cross at Paris on Sunday, February 18. They were General Gouraud, who commanded the Fourth French Army in the World War; General Hely Oissel, 8th Corps d'Armée; General le Gallais, 16th Infantry Division; General Le Bous, 161st Infantry Division; Captain Andre d-Fouqueries, liaison officer, 8th Corps d'Armée, and Lieut. Tessier, of General Le Bous's staff. The 369th Infantry (15th New York), with Colonel William Hayward as commander, served under the "Four generals from March 14 to December 18, 1918, and so distinguished itself in action as to win the croix de guerre on its colors for the capture of Sechault in the Meuse-Argonne Campaign. The ceremony took place at Nellys the censure of the 10th Division of the defense of Paris, now under command of General Le Bous, and after the divisional troops had been reviewed by the decorated officers and Colonel Little, the latter proceeded to the Arc de Triomphe and placed a magnificent wreath of flowers on the comb of the Soldier of France. In the afternoon General Gour- aud gave a luncheon for Colonel and Mr. Little, and in the even- ing Mr. Little used the French generals at dinner. Veterans Corps Thanked By French Ambassador The French Ambassador Jusseraud celebrated recently the twentieth anniversary of his service in this country, being now the dean of the diplomatic corps. On this occasion he was the recipient of hundreds of telegrams and letters of congratulation and good will, among the number being one from Woolruff Chisium, Vetetran Corps, of 654 Lenox avenue. Under date of February 10, Mr. Chisium received the following acknowledgment from Ambassador Jusseraud: "No greetings and congratulations more welcome than those of veterans of the Great War who sailed France at the time of the war and cared her to write daily for the great common cause. Warmest thanks. May the principles for which we fought together triumph.—JESSE-RAUD." Fortune Telling for Swindle Guide Scheming Pair Hailed Before in $1,500 Bail to Appear County, Charged The reported revival of fortune Age two weeks ago, had an unus it was discovered that a pair of the stamping ground away from on Long Island—in the little town This disclosure was made when a worthy and industrious couple, Mr. and Mrs. Jdan Norman, living in their own home at 426 Caplan avenue, had reported to Judge Frank Brainerd that they had been swindled out of more than $400 by a man and woman calling themselves Mr. Dean and Alice Dean, respectively. They are also said to be known as "Edward" Dean and Laura Tanner, the "Alice" being it alleged, the name of a dead sister. The story told by Mrs. Sadie Norman illustrates accurately the methods pursued by this gentry in booking their victims and fastening them in such entangling meshes as to make it almost impossible for them to win freedom. Mrs. Norman's Story According to Mrs. Norman's tale, the Dean couple came to her some time last September, hunting for a room to rent. Mrs. Norman owns her home and also the house next door at 428, which was used as a rooming house to accommodate transient oystermen from time to time. The Dean woman's plausibility won Mrs. Norman, first, to agreeing to let the couple have a room; and then, later, to renting them, the whole house. The four-room house was to be paid for at rate of $12 a month, and the landlord was to furnish coal, wood and oil to tenant. Incidentally, the first month's rent, $12, was the only rent paid by the Deans. The Normans had lived at Greenport (Continued on Bornert Page) $50 Award Given Man For Assault Trenton, N.

November 13, last, White attacked Henson, making a brutal assault, upon him. Henson, a postoffice employee, was laid up for two weeks. Attorney Robert Queen represented Henson. The jury returned his verdict after only ten minutes deliberations. Sensational Testimony Disclosed in Libel Suit Brought by Sec'y Taylor MYSTELOUS MURDERS IN W. 59TH=STREET LAID TO 3 NEGROES Man and Woman Arrested Charged With Crimes Committed Sept. 14. SAY WOMAN WAS LURE Allege that White Men Were Decoyed to Roof, Robbed and Murdered. With the arrest of Leo Singleton, 19, and his wife, Helena, 26, of 3 East 131st street, and Miss Beatrice Pennyfeather, 25, of 552 Lenox avenue, the police claim to have solved the mystery, of the roof murders on West 59th street, near Columbus Circle, on September 14 last. On the morning of September 15 the bodies of Louis Routhstein of 204 West 69th street, and Samuel Kearn of 592 Broadway, Astoria, Long Island, both insurance collectors were found on the roofs of 339 and 321 leses of 50th street respectively, with evidence of their having been robbed and strangled. There was no clue of any sort discoverable by the officers and for five months the crime had remained a mystery. The case was put in the hands of Sergeant Clarence Daly, in charge of detectives at the West 59th street station, who assigned Detective Sergeant Cornelius Manning, Detectives Jorn Cromin, Joseph Lawless and Joseph Maloney to the investigation. After months of sleuthing, these officers discovered a slight trail that led to Singleton, who followed this on Thursday. February 15 just five months to the day after the men were found dead, Singleton, his wife and Miss Pemyleather were arrested, charged with the crime. The police claimed to have received a confession from Singleton, corroborated by the Pennyfeather woman, to the effect that the two white men were lured to the roofs by the woman, the couples being followed by Singleton and another man, whose identity has not been disclosed, whereupon the victims were set upon and robbed. In both cases, the white men's shoes had been removed and both were garrorted with their own neckties. The alleged confession stated that the party rode from Harlem down to 60th street and Broadway in Singleton's automobile, a Buick, and that Mrs. Singleton was left as the wheel of the car, while the impounder and the driver carried out the project of decrying men to the roofs for the purpose of robbing them. It is declared that murder was no part of the program, the deaths of Rothstein and Kearn having resulted when the slipknots formed with their neckties were drawn too tight. The three prisoners are in jail, charged with homicide. For Fakirs Greenport Couple Fore District Attorney and Held for Before Judge of Suffolk and With Swindling.

EDITOR OF THE NEW YORK AGE ON STAND Called as a Witness for the Defense and Tells of Conference in Which Sec'y Taylor Was Advised of Criticisms The center of interest this week is in the Court of General Sessions, Part I, presided over by Judge Grain, where the suit of Thomas E. Taylor, executive secretary of the West 135th street branch Y. M. C. A., against the Community Publishing Co., for alleged criminal label, is being thrashed out. The charge is based on certain publications made in the New York Dispatch, a newspaper that was published by the defendant company, the particular publications complained of being contained in the numbers issued during February, 1921, and at subsequent times. The articles criticised the conduct and actions of Taylor, especially as concerned his alleged associations with a young woman, Mrs. Alice Conley, who was employed as his private secretary in the office of the 135th street Y. M. C. A. In answer to Taylor's charge of criminal libel, the Community Publishing Co. maintained that publication of articles relating to Taylor was without animus, but based on the good of the V. M. C. A. as an institution, and for the community in general; that the alliance association of Executive Secretary Taylor, a married woman, with his abhorred, Mrs. Alice Conkey, a married woman, was not such agent as would make for best interests of the community.

Ray was arrested on February 14; while asleep in his apartment, and the police say they found pawn tickets for more than $60,000 worth of jewelry and other valuables which had been taken from homes in Providence, R.

The father of the children, William Hankey, Policemen John Arnold and Louis Barbieri, of the Poplar street station, and First Lieutenant John Judson of Engine 226, were severely burned and overcome by smoke. Hankey, Arnold and Barbieri were taken to Camberland Street Hospital for treatment while William Barbieri, Bentley Lynn Hospital. The fire started from the explosion of an oil heater in the kitchen of the Hanley apartment, on the second floor of the building. Pollosman Discovered Fire Smoke was discovered coming from a front window of the Harley apartment by Patrolman Arnold, who turned in an alarm and proceeded to account members of the four other families in the house. Arnold was soon joined by Patrolman Barbieri and McCarthy. They helped tenants on the second floor through the smoke-filled hallways to the street and returned for the Harley family. By this time firemen had arrived and were pouring water into the second floor. Hanley, father of the children, meantime had been awakened by the noise and ran to the street. Hanley returned to his apartment with the policemen and several firemen. Two other children of Hanley, a daughter, Helen, 7 years old, and a son, Grant, 12, were rescued. Smoke Barred Rescue. The rescue party could not reach the Hankley apartment because of the intense heat and volumes of smoke moving from it. When firemen had finally quenched the flames, the rescue team entered the apartment to find the two women, Hankley's wife and his mother, Mrs. Webb, and the two children, dead. Patrolman Arnold, the more seriously hurt of those in the hospital, sustained his injuries when he reached the house after sending in the alarm for fire apparatus. He discovered smoke pouring from a kitchen window leading to Fleet place, and turned in the alarm from Myrtle avenue, ablock away. Before returning to the fire he rapped with his stick for aid, which brought Patrolman Barbieri and McCarthy. Barbieri was the first inside the building and up the smoke-filled stairway to the second floor, where he managed to pull out William Hankley, the father, and Helen, 6, who slept in the room off the kitchen where the fire started. Mother's Body Jammed Door. The policemen had to break the door leading into this small hallway and into the kitchen. They tried to enter the bedroom, but the first door was closed. It was found later that the mother's body had jammed it in falling against it. Patrolman Arnold ran to the back and rescued the family of James Dusser, 38, taking out the man, his wife, Helen, 30, and Helen, 7, and Dorothy 6 months, and he found Grant Hankley in the front room where the frenzied father had left the child. Patrolman McCarthy had run to the third floor upstairs and assisted, partly carrying and partly guiding Madeline Connell, 30, and William Reilly and Reilly's son, James, 10. He rounded by shouts and his night stick the two families sleeping on the top floor. Firemen from Truck 118, Jay street, were the first to reach the room, with life spans and apartments while their companions were stringing home to quench the flames, they hosted four ladies to the burning building and to joining structures to assist those inside to the street. Other Tenanta Saved. Firemen Clancy, Dineen, Mazak Hensy, Paul, Deegan, Staccan and Capel Gerald helped Arnold and Sarah Hurkins, John Williams, John Watkins and the four Watkins children to the roof and then to the street. This was not difficult, for there is a ten-foot difference between the burning house and the buildings on either side. During the fighting of the fire Lieut.

In days gone by when we did not have quite so many de- mands upon our energies we used to amuse ourself by citing ex- soe of the absurd logic in which the average Southern news- paper indulges whenever it touches the Negro question. And now there comes se flagrant a case that we cannot pass it by. We refer to an editorial in the “Times-Herald" of Dallas..‘Texas, the head- ing of which 19: “For Critics to Ponder and Mobs to Digest.” “rhe editorial read in’ par as follows. : Av‘the habeas corpits tial, that Negeo char ed with the murder of Grady Mopworth was released. We commend to the notice of Northern ndwepapere an doi those perniciaus Northern societies that stir up race “trouble the willingness stown by the Waco people to let the law take its course even when the case against ahe Blick looked dark indeed.

It is true that a man accused of killing Skipwith and who had been “identified” by a young white woman was relcased from jail when Roy Mitehell, another Negro, was arrested amd con- fessed to having committed the crime himself; but the Dallas “Times-Herald” says riothing about the fact that less than a year ago Jesse Thomas, a Negro, was charged with killing Harrell Bol- ton, a white man, and was also “identified” by a young white wo- man, and was lynched and burned by the mob for the crime which Roy Mitchell now confesses that he committed also. The Texas mob did refrain from lynching an innocent man charged with the murder of Skipwith, but on the other hagd it did tynch and burn an innocent man charged with the murder of Bolton, We do not see that the Dallas “Times-U call” has anything to brag alout ox any reason for lecturing “pernicious es snciet-«s THE NEGRO'S PEACE RECORD. 2 eloquent and well deserved tribute wh Hdge paid to the Negro’s War record in h > Government Hospital for Negro vetera t Tuskegee on Lincoln's Birthday. He with which the colored young men of At ir vountry’s call in the Great War, poi It was an eloquent and well deserved tribute which Vice- President Coolidge paid to the Negro’s war record in his address dedicating the Government Hospital for Negro veterans of the World War at ‘Tuskegee on Lincoln's Birthday, He referred to the readiness with whieh the colored young men of America re- sponded te their country’s call in the Great War, pointing out that nearly 400,000 of them went inte miltary service, He also dwelt upon their unsurpassed loyalty and devotion through the entire struggle. This is a story which should never and will never he forgotten, Dut even se, it is net a new story nor is it the amost important story about the Negro in the United States. ‘The Negro’s war record is as Gld as the nation and any true history will cite deeds of courage, heroisin and loyalty. on the part of the Negro in every crisis that the country has passed through. That Banner which is now the type . : Of victory on field and flood— . * Remember, its first crimson stripe Was dyed by Attucks’ willing blood. And never yet has come the cry— When that fair flag has been assailed— For men to do, for men to die, That we have faltered or have failed. A great many people within the last five years have spoker with surprised gratification at the qualitications of loyalty, cour age and stamina shown by the American Negro in the Great War, The whele thing seems to strike them as a realization of some thing they had [ttle suspected. Let such people go back and read what the Negre did in the Spanm-h-American War, what he did in the Civil War, what he did, especially at New Orleans, in the War of 1812. and of what he did in the Revolutionary War, Vice-President Coolidge is a student of his country’s history and is undeubtedly iamiliar with al! of these facts, We have not seen the fail text of his speech, ahd so we do not know whether he showed! that the Negre'’s honorable war record runs through the whe Me nf the nation or whethe: be Penited his references Pte thecdee coment Woe We Re ge fhe att the farmer Tt is far riorqencdlidiman t/a Pkadtedonpeltls Ge iy SOEs HEE R TSO Pottes s that the Neges has alwass stead the physical asd mural tests which war imposes and that he has frat the beginning been a part of the bone amd musele and Uhood ofthe country, than to relate the last chapter and create or leave the impression that courage and loyalty on the part of the Negro is something new | But as honorable and as glorious as it is, the Negro’s war record is not the most important story about him. For a display of the elements ef stanina, ot cotrage and loyalty and of intelli- gence, i dees not begin te compare with his peace record. It is m the vietertes of peace that the Negra has demonstrated histhigh- est Claims to fill American citizenship. Achievement in war might possibly come oi a courage sprung from the old: tiger in man, irom a letting go of all ef the things that man has slowly won in his upward climb of a half million sears, often upon disillusion- | ment or even despair, or at Lect far a noble ecstasy which 7 often artificial, Under ail cireumstances the courage for achievement in war, ts always heated and expanded by the esprit de corps, by the paychotogical farce, generated by men acting as comrades for a common purpose. So that the soldier never tects himself an indi- vidual’ but, winning, or losing, victutions or defeated, living or dying. he feels, he feels himseli a thausand men, ten thotsand men: indeed, it is possible. that he féels himself his whole country. It is in the victories of peace that the Negro has stood the test of the more essential qualities of manhood and citizenship— of stamia. patience, sacrifice, courage. determination, intelligence and faith in one’s self: And in his peace record the Negro hasbeen called upon to exercise these qualities, each one as av individiial standing, in tis single responsibility te himselé and the comutey and not-24 a part of the army. He has had tu exercise then: with- ouc any of the artifical stunvlation which sweeps men forward it war. Indeed, in my opinion it requires courage and qualities of a higher degree, physically, mentally and spiritually, for a Nee sro to be a successful, respected and self-respecting citizen in Mis- sisbippi than it required for the Negro to win the Croix de Guerr in France. . 2 We hope that while Vice-President Coolidge was' at Tuskeges he had brought to, his attention ‘the “Negro Year Book” edite< by Mr. Monroe N. Wark of that institition. This is a book which tells the story of the Negro’s peace record. It tells it in condensed form but it contains more of that story in an equal number of pagés than ‘any other book I- know of. It tells how the Negro has stood the tests of Ametican civilization, tests whiclt could not be met with a momentary flash of bravery but which required the ability to Withstand the ‘continuous gruelling grind. This book gives concrete demonstrations of. how the Negro has met and is meeting the demands of this high-geared American civilization into which he was literally thrown, And not only that, but it demonstrates how he has met and is meeting the tests of American prejudice and injustice. * 2 A review oi this story-as it is so graphically depicted. in, the “"NG&ro Year Book" will prove conclusively to anyone that the Negro is gradually and certainly overcoming his obstacles and handicaps. One cannot read this story from the beginning to the present chapter without feeling that the Negro’s ultimate vic- tory is sure 4 . . We hope Vice-President Coolidge, after reading this story.

A ‘SENSIBLE CHANGE. | senator Norris's resolution proposing an amendment, tu the | censssuation providing for a ‘change in the dates of the inaugura- | tion of the Predident and of the opening of Congress is a good one, If there ever was any good reason why the President should wait four months after his election before taking office’'and why mem- bers vf Congress should wait thirteen months after election be- fore taking their seats, it no longer exists. A few opponents of the change are resorting to sentimental Statements about the wisdom of the fathers who framed the Con- stitution. That is all bosh. There is no doubt about the fact that the fathers who framed the Constitution were wise men, but they made no pretensions of being either prophets or fortune tellers. Not even George Washington himself could forsee railroad trains and telegraphs. _ As big as the country is today, if it had no telegraphs it would probably take three months to tell definitely who was elected Pres- ident, and without railroads a President might de elected from some state from which it would take him the other month to reach Washington. But conditions are changed. We know generally inside of twenty-four hours who is elected President, and if he is to jour- ney from the State of Washington to Washington, D. C., he can today make the trip in a week. . * “+ But there are still better reasons. Congressmen taking their seats thirteen months after their election can very easily take advantage of the fact that most of the people have by that time forgotten why they voted for them, | In our mind, the resolution docs not advance the date quite far enough, We think it would be. better tu have -the President and the newly elected members of Congress take office on the first. Monday -in January following the general elections in No- vember. Thus they would begin to function sixty days after elee- tion. This would make both the President and the Congress more responsive to the popular will, — Another gadd chainge, while they, are making charzes, would be to have senators elected for four years. There is no hope fur the Senate being anything more than a petrified and obsolete institution under the present tenure of office. There ix no way to hold the conservative, hideLound old standpatters who get into the Senate in touch with the people’ when they know they have a longer term of office than the President himself. Senators ought to come before the people for reelection every four years. It would keep a litt! more humble. FARMING AND BUSINESS.

The avocation of a Pullman porter is somewhat dangerous under normal conditions, no matter where he runs, for the reason that Pullman cars are hauled mostly by railroads on their cannon balls and flyers; a. I you can never tell when one of these marvels of speed is going to hit, he hit or take the unusual course—an open switch—then it is between you and your Maker as to how you will come out. But with all this uncertainty there is a greater danger threatening the porter who travels South that menace is the 100 per cent. Americans in that part of the country. Having grown weary of beating and lynching the Negro of the turpentine belts of Georgia and the Everglades of Florida they have transferred their operations to a new field—the Pullman car. We have no idea why they have acquired a taste for a luxurious background unless some king kleagle or high cyclops of this exalted band has a dime recollection of having once rode in a Pullman and observing a clean, polite and courteous Negro attending to the wants of the refined passengers in a refined way. We can just imagine that sight made his "hot blood" boil hotter; and we can picture him saying to himself, "the first chance I git at one of dim niggers I'll put him in his place—they should answer, Yas Boss, not yes, Slii—they're getting too proper—they are trying to be like us white folks." We are not much given to deplaining what might have been, nor regretting lost opportunities, but we do sometimes wish we had the literary ability to narrate with smoothness our observations and impressions of those who travel in Pullman cars. To the student of psychology this is a great hold of our favorite runis is to a point which is used very much by the students of a well-known college in Massachusetts in traveling back and forth. They students of this school gave a "frat" house-party last week at which they entertained their girl friends and sweethearts. These young ladies were our passengers to and from the visit and while serving them we observed them. Mr. A. B. Bee with alphabetical sounding name was not very far out of way then he spoke about the college girls smoking and using rouge sticks; they were long on these things but all the other savings of his were pure hunk. Aside from the cigarettes and tip sticks they certainly were a nice lot. Whatever service they required was requested in a refined manner; and their conversations were far from trivial. Now, the interesting question is; does the cigarette affect the physical and mental growth of the feminine sex? Personally we think it would hurt them physically; mentally we are not qualified to judge; but we can not imagine a female cigarette friend developing into a great woman or a proud, intelligent mother. Of course, all these young ladies were of the opposite race, but you may rest assured that whatever fad or habit they acquire their sisters of color will not be long in adopting. It is not with any ideas of criticism, but we do hope our young ladies, especially our school girls, will not get the smoke habit. We have too much work for them to do now and in the future. Their heads need to be clear, not filled with nicotine and smoke. Eastman College Pays For Student's Attack (Special to The New York Age) Doughkeepsie, N. Y.; Gaius C. Bolin, attorney at law, who was awarded a judgement for damages in a suit against John H. McPhall of Texas, a student at the Eastman Business College because of an unwarranted attack made upon Bolin by McPhall as the former was enroute home from his office to supper some time ago, has received a payment of $00 from Clemen C. Gaines, head of the Eastman College, on account of the judgment. the jungle. It was established that McPhall, a southern white, attacked Mr. Bolin with our cause or justification, evidently because of a prejudiced fearing against Negroes. WITH OUR GIRLS IMPORTANT NOTICE TO "WITH OUR GIRLS" The girls who have allied themselves with the "With Our Girls" column seem to have lost interest. There has been a decided lack of regularity in writing and as a consequence the column has not been kept up to its initial standard. The editor of The Age desires to cater to this group of readers, but unless a greater interest is shown this department will necessarily be discontinued. Letters for the column must be in the Age office on Mondays of each week, and unless there is an immediate definite exhibition of activity on the part of the "With Our Girls" members, this column will not appear after the next issue of The Age. DEAR GIRLS I am saying with "Gay," where are all of the "Mystery Girls?" Have not lost interest in the column I hope. TRUTH I came out of the ether into the darkness; I looked around, and could not see. Putting out may hand I felt for something that I saw not and which should have been a part of me. The finest and best in me cried out from it, the restless spirit dominated and I started on a world wide quest. Through lands, of ice, snow and profound, silence I sought it and rebitted against the imitations. I traveled in wind, rain and on the rocky steeps unsatisfied. I roamed and on barren wastes I roamed seeking ever seeking; I came in contact with many people and many beliefs. Weary, worn, sad and discouraged I sat down on the curb of a squalid street in the heart of a large city reckoning with sin and held my head in my hands. The pages from the book of Experience held in the palm of Life, fell around me at my feet and the sound FIRST NEGRO FIRE INSURANCE CO. HAS UNUSUAL HISTORY (Continued from First Page) without question among some of the safest and best business men known to our race. "Bankers' Fire" had its first office in one large room, but it soon outgrew its quarters and moved into a suite of five rooms over the Hayti Drug Store during the first six months of its operation. These quarters were soon too small and the present home office occupies an entire those in the largest and best building owned by our people in the State of New York (Carolina (the North Carolina National Fire Office Building). "Bankers' Fire" has now two years of operation taken over two other companies, and is now the largest and strongest Nebraska fire insurance company in existence. "The men who started this company are men who are roped in experience and the wisdom of their adventure is shown in the unparalleled success that has already come to the company. And now, the very name of Bankers' Here is a symposium of success. Just think, a company two years old and operating in five states, with total resources of more than $300,000, and with agency plants numbering one hundred thirty. A regular, old line here is insurance companies, assuming the same kind of policies and services at the same rates, and giving the same service in every particular. That is why we are meeting the good will and support of the people. "For the hundreds of letters which we receive monthly from men in every phase of life and for the good expressions contained therein, we are indebted very grateful. And for the full appreciation of the property owners in the states in which we are operating, we wish to express our earnest desire that our business relations may ever continue as pleasant as in the past, and to all who are writing and urging us to come into the other states of the Union, we wish to assure you that we are laying plans which will eventually put our organization within your reach.

Garland Penn, secretary of the Board of Education, Methodist Episcopal Church, spent Sunday and Monday, February 11 and 12, here in interest of Bennett College. He preached Sunday morning to a large congregation in St. Matthew's M. E. Church. In the afternoon, in the College chapel, he addressed the graduates and undergraduates of Bennett and other schools, under management of the M. E. Church, who are in the city. After his address Dr. Penn requested all the graduates to assemble in front of the girl's dormitory, costing $50,000, where a group picture was taken.

The All-Seeing One who holds the thread of the beginning and end touched me on my bowed head saying "You have tried like many before and like many will after you, to find the heat and you have only seen its shadow." "Take me with you," I cried, "for I cannot see." I rose out of my clay prison; light and free I was borne away leaving my other self an old huddled mass to be found later and be disposed of by the city. Happy and rejoicing in having found myself I rose higher and higher until I walked in light more bright than day. A great calm infused me and I who had walked in blindness saw, saw the light of truth. With firm steps and head held high I walked toward that light shading my eyes for fear that its purity might blind me. It was then that I found out for what I was seeking a whole life-long and endless quest only found after death and I was satisfied. "ATALANTA" Plainfield, N. J.

One day last week as a good looking beatenly attracted young woman of the race, came out of a department store she happened to drop her handkerchief on the sidewalk. A white man being in the immediate rear, seeing it, picked it up and handed it to her and in doing so he found to his astonishment, when she turned around to receive the handkerchief, that she was colored and examined. "Oh, I thought you were white." To all of which she pointed replied, "I thank you just the same." One of two other white men standing within hearing distance, observed to the others, "Did you hear what that white man said to that colored woman?" "Of course I did," replied he, "Well what do you think of it?" asked the first man, "I think it is the limit, he surely has a lot of nerve," said his companion. The conclusion of the white affair is that, an idiot would not find it difficult to decide which of the two, viz. the colored lady or this white "gentleman" is the better breed. Selah. WASHINGTON, D.

White First Afternoon Recital Of The Harlem Orchestra VTA GRA In The Realm By Lucien First Afternoon Of The Ha The beautiful and well-appointed auditorium of the New Renaissance Casino, Seventh avenue and 138th street, was the acme Sunday afternoon, February 18, of the opening recital of a series of orchestral renditions by the Harlem. Orchestra, a new organization, under the baton of E. Gilbert Anderson, conductor. The movement is fostered and promoted by the Singers and Players Exchange, Deacon Johnson, manager, of 230 West 135th street. Five concerts are programmed, and if the other four measure up to the first one, artistically speaking, the music-loving group of Greater New York has a great treat in store. It is to be hoped, however, that they will awaken to a realization of this fact and respond in such numbers as will justify the effort being put forth by Mr. Johnson, Mr. Anderson, and the gentlemen making up the orchestral personnel. It is possible that last Sunday's recital had not been sufficiently announced and that there was a lack of information concerning the affair which contributed to the small attendance. On the other hand, it is possible that a number of people deliberately stayed away because it was being given under auspices of what they considered to be an organization which did not take its music seriously. It is to be hoped that the first reason is the real one, for if the second one has any foundation, then those who were influenced by it certainly lost more than any one else. Not only did they lose the opportunity to encourage and help a movement which will be of inestimable good to race development, artistically and culturally, but they also lost an opportunity to listen to players, men of their own race, who are rapidly attaining symphonic proportions. True, at times there was a bit of roughness in their work; on occasion, there were loose ends which showed there were heights yet to be attained, but on the whole the work of the players of instruments who sat beneath Anderson's baton was the work of men who exhibited a due sense of reverence in THEATRICAL JOTTINGS By BOB SLATER Florence Mills is held over at the Lafayette Theatre, New York City.

The funeral was held Sunday from the house. approaching the shrine of an ideal, and who showed a comprehension of the severe tax upon the equipment of those who serve as exemplars of a desired art. The program was divided into two parts, the first part being made up of numbers from the old masters—the "Tannhauser" march, from Wagner's opera of the same name; the first movement, (adagio, allegro con brio) from Beethoven's C major Symphony, No. 1; and Brahms' Hungarian Dance, No. 5. There was also the solo number, Saint Saens' Concerto No. 1, for cello and piano, played splendidly by Marion Cummo and Miss Sonoma Carolyn Talley. The orchestra was entirely under control of Mr. Anderson, and his readings of the various scores were intelligent and comprehensible. Cumbo's cello work was brilliant, but showed a tendency at times to slackness. After intermission, during which the folks present exchanged greetings, two lighter numbers were given. Tyers 'Love's Menu' and Tobani's arrangement of "Auld Lang Syne" were rendered with unusual effectiveness. Between these numbers, William Pickens was introduced and spoke interestingly of music as a part of the race equipment. He urged strongly a larger support for the Harlem Orchestra and its promoters, Fred W. (Deacon) Johnson and E. Gilbert Anderson. The orchestra is made up of the following players: J. Lymas, concert master; first violins—A. Boyd, B. Parker, F. Tate; second violin—B. Shaw, J. young; cellos—M. Cumbo, A. Rosa, D. L. Martin, Jr.; contra basses—G. Haywood, F. Tirol, A. Scott; flutes—J.

AT THE LAFAYETTE THEATRE A tribute never before paid a colored dress was paid for Florence Mills at the midnight show at the Lafayette Theatre on Friday night. February 10 when a thousand people were turned away from the theatre. The house was packed, with the entire Liza company attending, and most of the other well known actors and actresses present. A number of the celebrities were called to the stage and the show lasted from twelve until four-thirty. Miss Mills is making her final appearance at this theatre this week. She is surrounded by an entire new show, and in addition has brought two of the young women from her Broadway show to Harlem to appear with her. She is sailing for England about the middle of March and will open in London on April first. Other acts on the bill include Earl Dancer, Sam Hays and several well known white acts.

Patrons of the drama will remember the clever efforts of Miss Ellis in the title roles in "Peg O'My Heart," "The Love Of Shu Shong" and "Why Wives Go Wrong." Supporting Miss Ellis are Barrington Carter and G. Edward Brown, Minnie Johnson, Addison Carey, Dan Edwards, and others. AT THE LINCOLN THEATRE Now it's a dog that's playing a "heavy" role in a motion picture. But "heavy expense" is the full name of the part played by "Ginger" in the Goldswyn production of "Broken Chains," which comes to the Lincoln theatre for 4 days, beginning today. The company, directed by Allen Holubar, went to location at Huntington Lake for seems in which Ginger plays an important part. However, the altitude, or the brand of dag biscuit or something, didn't agree with Ginger and he let sick. For several days the company had nothing but fish and go hiking and wish for Ginger to re-enter "ginger." The highly trained dog had already been "registered in many important scenes, and his "double" in appearance and intelligence is not known to exist. These facts, considered, the india-rubber ice pick was offered as a reward to the rising young efficiency sharp who could suggest a way out of the difficulty, consistent with a proper treatment of the story, for which Goldwyn paid $10,000 to the winner of a scenic prize contest. Bordentown Wine at Princeson. (Applied to the New York Rpa) Princeson, N. 1 - The all-around team work of the Bordentown Quintet proved too strong for the Princeson "Y" here on January 24. The home team went down before a defeat of 23-15. 1921 NEW YORK AGE: SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 24, 1921. The Baseball Situation, With Eastern and Western Angles "Rube" Foster Claims That Eastern Magnates Disregarded Rights of Westerners By Enticing Star Players To Disregard Their Playing Contracts Commonwealth Five Wins From the Starling Greys WANTED MUSICIANS--ENTERTAINERS SINGERS and PLAYERS for ORCHESTRA and ENTERTAINMENT IN AND AROUND New York City The Singers & Players Exchange. Clearing House for Musical Combinations DRACON JOHNSON, General Manager New York Age Building 220 W. 136th Street, New York The fight between Edward Bolden of Philadelphia and Andrew "Rube" Foster of Chicago is no longer a personal affair. It has taken on a public aspect, and should be settled in a manner that will be the best interest of the fans and baseball in general. The difference between these two baseball magnates seems to have arisen over the alleged "domination of Foster" and the National Negro Baseball League, a western organization, over the affairs of the Eastern clubs. To change this situation Mr. Bolden and the eastern clubs organized what is now known as the Mutual Association of Eastern Clubs, a similar organization as the National Negro Baseball League, but one of the first acts of Mr. Bolden's after his organization is formed is to immediately begin bidding for players and securing players from teams in the western association without the consent of those teams. The taking of John Henry Lloyd, Rajo and several other players from the New York Bacharach Giants have almost broken up a team that took years of effort and money on the part of John, Connors and those associated with him to build up. Such disregard by Mr. Bloden for the rights of the other team and aiding of a spirit of revolt among the players is doing and will do no end of harm among the present baseball clubs. According to Foster, who is now in the East, this jumping of players will not only break up the Bacharachs, but will also cause two or more teams in the western association to be disbanded because their best players are leaving them, and unless an agreement is reached between the eastern and western organizations, the latter organization will be eventually wrecked. This is the part of this question that should interest all colored baseball fans. In organized baseball, a player, when he contracts with a team, becomes an asset to that team and is recognized as such by all other teams. If another club desires this players service that club should seek to have the club for which the player is working release him, which in most cases means that theymu, pay an agreed sum for his release. In the past among colored clubs, however, this obligation of one club to the other clubs has never been fully recognized, and for that reason they have been continually warring amg themselves. The Commonwealth Big Five scored two victories over the Starling Grays of the Interborough League on Sunday, February 18. In the afternoon at Huffman's Casino, the Bronx, they won by a score of 33-27, and in the evening they won by a score of 28-26 at Commonwealth Casino. "Streeteh" Grant, former Stuyvesant High School star center, and late of the New York Chicago Defender Five, has been added to the team, and in the afternoon played a good game. At the evening game, however, he was not quite the equal of Anderson, the lanky center for the opposing team. He played the first half of the game, and the Grays led throughout that half, with the score 20-13 in their favor at its end. In the second half, Slocum went into center, and the local team soon closed up the gap, between the two scores. "Speaks" Motion was the star score for his team, making a total of six field goals, while Huhbard was invincible as a guard. The summary of the evening was as follows: Commonwealth 28 Starling Grass 20 Eial R. F Hertfelder Jenkins L. F Siefer Grant C Anderson Huffard R. G Manns Meteen L.

JACK TAYLOR MAKES HIS NEW YORK DEBUT Jack Taylor, colored light heavyweight of Utah, was the winner of two fights in his initial appearance in New York on Tuesday night. February 20 In two preliminary houses at the Pioneer Sport Club he stopped Jim Davis in three rounds and Silen Pudvea in four. He is a promising fighter, and will be seen in action at the 15th Armory in the near future. Foster has sought to alleviate this evil in the West, and in a large measure has succeeded with the clubs of the western association. His stand on this question of players jumping from one team to another should receive the commendation of the baseball public. Two organizations, representing the clubs of the East and West should seek to get together for the good of baseball, and not destroy what has already been accomplished. MOREHOUSE OPENS EASTERN TOUR BY BEATING HAMPTON Large Crowd Saw Seasiders Beaten Third Successive Year. (Special to The New York Age) Hampton, Va. - Playing the first game on their eastern trip, the Morehouse Tigers defeated the "Sea-Siders" here Saturday, February 17, before a large audience of students and town people, 45-20.

He weighs 118 pounds. Girls' Championship Is Still Undecided On Friday evening, February 9, a large crowd went to St. Marks Hall to witness the second clash of the season between the Deers and the Blue Belts. The crowd was sadly disappointed and to hear the announcement that the game would not continue after they had played about five minutes. The cause of the trouble is alleged to have arisen over Blanch Winston, who resides in Washington, D. C. and who is supposed to be a regular on the New York Deers. Chris Huiswoud, manager of the Blue Belts declared that she is not a member of the Deers but was called here by Bell, manager of the Deers, to play in this game. Huiswoud stated that he allowed her to play in the previous clash between the two teams but on February 9 he refused to allow the Blue Belts to play the Deers with her in the lineup. Bell consented, much against his will, to allow the game to go on without Miss Winston. After about five minutes of play one of the Deers was injured and necessitated her retraining from the game. Bell put Blanche Winston in to fill the vacancy. Huiswoud refused to have her play. Chris had received a letter from the team allowing that the player involved is actually a member of a team city and if he was allowed to play in New York it would be no one's fault but his (Chris Huiswoud's). So, Chris acted and Bell kicked. Now Bell declares that the Deets will never play the Blue Bels again. On February 8, at the same hall, St. Marks Flashits conquered the Titan A. Three Knockouts Scored in Mixed Bouts Held at Commonwealth Casino on Saturday Night—Panama Joc Gans Wins Main Fight in the Fifth Round. --- Three knockouts were scored by colored fighters in an all-star mixed bout tournament at Commonwealth Club on Saturday night, February 17. In the main bout, scheduled for twelve rounds, Panama Joe Gans, 154, scored a knockout over Jimmie O'Garty, 159, in the fifth round. In the early rounds of the fight Gans subjected his opponent to severe body punishment, and was the aggressor throughout. In the fifth round, O'Garty made a desperate attempt to put the colored fighter on the defensive and staggered him with several blows to the head. About a minute before the round ended, Panama caught O'Garty flush on the jaw with a right, which put him to sleep. He was counted out before he could rise. In the semi-final bout, also of twelve rounds, Larry Estridge, former amateur middleweight champion, scored a knockout over Charlie Arthur of Yonkers in the third round. Estridge knocked his opponent down twice in the first round and practically knocked him out in the second. Arthur did not revive enough to offer any resistance in the next round and the referee stopped the bout to prevent him from receiving fur- C. of Orange. N. J., in a lightening-speed game. New York was the victor throughout. On Lincoln's Birthday night at St. Marks Hall two first class games were put before a large and enthusiastic crowd of fans. The main attraction was between Harlem's favorites, the Blue Belts, and the Roosevelt Center Girls. Much to the surprise of those present, the Belts went down to defeat, the final score being 18-17. In the second half the visitors began using some of "Strangler Lewis" and other "catch-as-catch-can" artists' tactics on the Belts, but a few shifts sent them sprawling on the floor. The score at half time was 11-10 with Roosevelt on the small end. The preliminary was between Harlem's wonder team, the Buffaloes, and the Vocational All-Stars, who scored the only defeat upon the Buffaloes in 3 years earlier in the season. The ferocious tison started out at lightning speed and at half-time had scored 23 points to the Vocational 10. During the second ses- ther punishment. In scoring this knock out, Estridge has set a record which can be matched by few boxers in the country. He has had thirty-eight fighters, and with the exception of two women all by knockouts. He weighs 113-14 pounds and his opponent weighed 158. Jack McVey, walterweight champion of the National Guard, scored a knock out over Johnny Willets of Brooklyn in the fifth round of a scheduled round bout. McVey was much superior to his opponent and subjected him to a severe beating before knocking him out. The only defeat suffered by a round bout in which Kid Alfred was knocked fighter was id in the opening preliminary bout in which Kid Alfred was knocked out by Ben Gersey. As the bouts were all short, an extra one was added, which furnished more excitement than all of the others. In this contest Henry Shaw of the high fought Cowboy Williams four round in a draw. Both fighters went at it in a slambam fashion and fought every end of the way. Shaw weighed 150 pounds and Williams 146. Jack O'Sullivan was reference of all the bouts. sion the Vocationals began creeping up and Coach Ralston called his prodigy aside an put a "bug" or two in their ears about the score. Returning with those "bugs" fresh in their ears they cleaned up for the opposing team. Both struggled hard. The final whistle declared the Buffaloes the winner with a score of 37:30. Hampton Wins Second Game Reserved For The New York Ace Hampton Institute, Va.—Hampton Institute Five won its second game of the season from the Newport News Y. M. C. A. on Saturday, February 3, by a score of 25 to 15. Never was the Institute machine in danger. I took the lead from the beginning and maintained that lead until the final whistle blew. The game was clean, fast, full of thrills, and spectacular shots and plays. Hampton's basketball schedule: February 9. Roanoke All Five at Roanoke; 10. Bluefield Colored Institute at Bluefield; 17. Morehouse College at Hampton ADDITIONAL SPORTS JACK McVEY AGAIN BEATS SANDY TAYLOR Jack McVey, who won the weaker-weight championship of the National Guard from Sandy Taylor a few weeks ago, added another defeat over Taylor as the weekly boxing show of the 30th James Taylor was in much better condition than the entire ensemble and put up a much bigger fight. In the last three rounds, he outpainted McVey, but the big advantage which McVey on win the early rounds gave him more than points to win. In the opening round McVey caused his opponent's eye up and almost closed it in the next three rounds. Taylor was on the defensive up to the fifth round. For the next three rounds the fight was not even, Taylor making a strong impression, because the appa- tition of McVey near the end of the spectators thought the fight had been declared a draw. Taylor weighted 141.1-4 pounds and weighted 147.1-2. Elder Riley, former amateur feath- er of the champion, had one side of the golf received for his friends to see Thomas in the six round bout. Instead of winning, he hit a defeat. The bout was received after a referee had disagreed. Both of the bouts hummed plenty of action, but he tighter lost much of his when he resisted to the un- hallowed his elbows and shoulders. He weighed 125 pounds. The most interesting of the prelim- nies was between Kid Lane and Nixon of the 102nd Regiment. He batted out, taking count all the first round. Lane was twice down, but came back strong in the two rounds and almost in the opponent cut. In the last night he wilted by Norton caught partly in the mouth and he down from the count of nine. He smashed to weather the storm the emulator of the round but lost right. The preliminary bouts. Eldon 121 defeated Johnny Lucas. Frank Otto 146 defeated Wil- Tyne, Williams was the referee. Cullen Cain's Tribute To Bordentown Athletes Atlanta Cam. sports writer on the Penn State Athletic Public Ledger, one of the best grouped authorities in the Penn State at the Philadelphia Ledger is one of the best and most influential journeys in the country, wrote in his column, February 9, 1923, concerning athletic activities at the Bordentown Manual Training and Industrial Institute, Bordentown, N. J. W. R. Valentine, presides as follows: "They lay on the various teams of the Bordentown, N. J. Industrial School, very well posted on the contest of the vague struggles with the work of the schools. They send in the victorious defeats as well as of the victorious and always with some commonness more important than the recent team team beat them on the first day, 31 to 29, and the score and explained the following. It was a victory in the very end." A few years later the team sent me after a training of competitors after a break in Trenton. Lawrence went to Westfield. Bordentown second team went to Westfield. My second team went to the second-place team in the way: "We have not in mind any opportunities for track work; however, we are our best to make the win." We went from Bordentown came to Westfield. It gave the score in the basketball game in which Bordentown lost to Westfield in a score of 21 to 15, and this was the first time on the victory: "We are the fate deals hands while black brains and we are sure also that your story that little poem will mean a personal touch as we go through life." We went to the Bordentown team of all the many schools and universities in the area to meet with these dogs, that the Bordentown Industrial School blue and white tenant hangs alone above the entrance I write my daily staff. Hampton Defeats Roanoke; Loses to Bluefield Institute Hampton, Va.—Before an audience of approximately 1,000 people Hampton Ivory defeated the Roanoke All-City Five in a closely contested and clearly played game. The first half ended with 6.5 in Hampton's favor, and the second with "the A-AC" had the final victory over the "Seaiders". In the third half Hampton found her stridest with her famous "comback spirit" required to clamp the game. The final was Roanoke 10; Hampton 18. The lineup: Hampton (18) Roanoke (10) Jake R. F. Pryie. Jake L. F. Hayden. Lake G. Burrell. Gate R. G. Steptoe. Lake L. G. James. Stuartte-Hampton; Burrell for Mr. Stuartte-Fraiser for Langston. Roanoke Wilson for Hayden. Anderson for Lime-Dillard for Steptoe. HAMPTON LOSES The "Seaiders" invaded Bluefield, W. I., where they lost to the Bielefeld College Institute by a score of 11-4. The loss of the West Virginia game has dampened the spirits of the Hampion "Cagers," who have sworn to be beheaded on Morehouse at Hampton on February 17. Morehouse has trumpeted Hampton for two consecutive years. Hampton has also sworn to be beheaded on February 22. Dennis defeated Hampton in Philadelphia a few weeks ago. A. and T. Loses to J. C. Smith University 25124, with Johnson Smith University holding the larger score. In the early stages of the game the players showed a remarkable drive and for the first time the lead beat by degrees the Johnson Smith University Quinta came up and forced steadily ahead, the first half ending 13-12 in favor of J. C. S. U. Pitt was the star for the visitors, most of his throws, being from a long distance. James Anderson's work, as a guard, brought numerous ties by the visitors, his work being nothing short of a brilliant defensive. This was his first time in a game. Fast Lincoln Five Snows Vandals Under Philadelphia, Pa. — Things took a gloomy hue for the Lincoln five in the beginning of the game with the Vandals on February 12. The Vandals, with "Long Lega" Lee full of Atlantic Coast oxone, had scored sixteen points before the college boys seemed to know, where were. Some dozen hundred fans on the field were yelling for the boys to make their first point. Ham succeeded in caging the scoreless team, and by the end of the first half the Vandals were leading by 22 to 18. Between the halves Coach Law's cubs pulled themselves together. Trigg (K. M.) went in at left guard; Woods was shifted to center, and Pollitt went in for Woods. This combination proved to be vandalic for the Vandals. Tompkins and Trigg in guard fenced the Vandals in the final half; they were unable to sack more than four halfbacks, the forward, one of the best forwards in the East, allly sewed up.

SENSATIONAL TESTIMONY DISCLOSED IN LINEL SUIT BROUGHT BY SEGY TAYLOR Y. M. C. A. Committee of Management have testified both for and against Taylor. Among the witnesses for Taylor were H. C. Parker of the firm of Nail & Parker, who is at present chairman of the Committee of Management, and Taylor himself. John M. Royall, who was an official of the Community Publishing Co. denied that there was animosity against Taylor, and that he actually felt that Taylor not rendering the vice that would warrant his being secretary of a Y. M. C. A. organization. Under cross examination, Mr. Royall testified that headlines in the Dispatch were written mostly by members of the staff; that statements to the effect that Taylor, was opposed because Taylor objected to issuing of a dance hall license for the Civic League building, is elected opposite the building, were not true Taylor. The Royall was with Taylor on the matter; that he had frequently seen Taylor on Lenox avenue, Seventh avenue and 137th street, in company with Alice Conley. The testimony of Mrs. Sarah Taylor, wife of Secretary Taylor, who appeared as a witness for the defense, created a sensation. She made a good witness and Assistant District Attorney Whelan, acting for the prosecution, failed to shake her testimony in the slightest degree. Mrs. Taylor declared that all the charges made against her husband were true, and that all had not been told. She alleged that he had been "crowded" ever since she married him, and she swore that one of the scauces for her troubles with him was his insistence that she indulge in certain perverted, unnatural and degenerate acts, which she absolutely refused to do. She accounted other alleged incidents of their married life, declaring that her husband had been responsible to the motherhood of a thirteenth-year-old girl who had been taken by Mrs. Taylor into her Canadian home. The girl lived with her three months, said the witness. She also testified to finding a note in her husband's pocket supposed to have been written to a Miss Wright, and key which he is said to have acknowledged was a key to the apartment occupied by his secretary, Mrs. Conley. She testified to that a note in her apartment was seen leaving another woman, a Miss Josephine Taylor, in a partly disrobed condition. Fred R. Moore, publisher and editor of The New York Age, was called by the defense as a witness. Mr. Moore's name had been mentioned by various witnesses, particularly those Tayler faced, the opposition to Taylor, and Taylor himself is alleged to have testified that Mr. Moore had at one time advised him concerning his actions towards Mrs. Taylor and his associations with Mrs. Conley, his testimony tending to attempt to show that The Age editor had been treated against Mrs. Taylor and combined association with Mrs. Conley In his testimony, Mr. Moore related a discussion which had taken place between Secretary Taylor, Dr. E. P. and Charles H. Roberts, members of the Y. M. C. A. Committee of Management, and himself. In this conference, testified Mr. Moore, Taylor had complained of trouble with his wife, healed, he alleged, on her affiliation with some strange religious or political beliefs. He was advised, declared Mr. Moore, to try to reconcile these differences, and he is said to have agreed to do so. The witness testified that during the month of December, 1919, in The Age office, he had a conversation with Secretary Taylor, the latter having come in response to the editor's invitation. At that time, said the witness, Taylor was told of many criticisms that were being made because of his alleged inimacy with his private secretary. He being accused of conduct in a Y. M. C. A. secretary, who was thus setting a bad example to the young men and boys with whom he came in contact in an advisory capacity. Mr. Moore declared that to these admonitions Taylor replied with apparent defiance that he was doing,nb harm and would not discontinue the association with Mrs. Conley. In January, 1920, said the editor, he again held, a conference with Taylor, and talked over this matter. He noted that Taylor was touched upon, and Taylor was asked, testified the witness, as to how he would like to have a married man put his, Taylor's, daughter in a similar position. Taylor is alleged to have replied that it would not be allowed, because it would be wrong, but at the same time, Taylor's attitude was that his own actions were all right. Asked if he had talked with members of the Committee of Management concerning the removal of Taylor's accretion, Taylor replied that he was asked with Henry C. Parker, and Dr. Charles H. Robbers, both members of the committee, Testifying further, Mr. Moore brought out that, judging from subsequent developments in each case, every member of the Y. M. C. A. staff, employed in a subordinate position to Taylor, who had dared express Guard Your Health Be Safe to Use A Public Health Service only assures you that the health of your family is the responsibility of you. Two Population Remedy for Catarrh of the Bladder Keep and Safe to Take Bacteria for Sanitary Milky Capsules PAGE SEVEN disapproval of Taylor's conduct in continuing to associate with Mrs. Conley, had been discharged. Mr. Moore was still on the witness stand when court adjourned on Tuesday evening. He took the stand again on Wednesday. Other witnesses called were the Rev William P. Hayes, pastor of Mr. Olive Baptist Church, a former member of the Committee of Management of the Y. M. C. A., one of the group which resigned when the City Board overruled action taken by the local committee looking to Taylor's removal, Dr. Hayes were social relations between himself and Mrs. Conley which would not be discontinued; that he, the witness, had heard of Taylor's leaving Mrs. Conley's apartment at 1 o'clock in the morning which had been admitted as being tried to the board of directors by Taylor himself; that the relationship of Taylor and his female secretary was not felt ideal for which the Y. M. C. A. stood; that these considerations influenced him to vote for Taylor's resignation. Dr. Benj. P. Withers, another member of the Committee of Management was also a witness for the defense, and he testified as to his reason for voting to ask for Taylor's resignation, his action being influenced by the feeling that the secretary's conduct was imitated to his work behalf of the organization. Counsellor Louis A. Leavelle appeared for the Community Publishing Co. Assistant District Attorney Thomas Whelan for the prosecution. FORTUNE TELLING FAKIRS SWINDLE GREENPORT COUPLE for fourteen years, Mr. Norman being employed as a hostler by the railroad company. They are the only colored people in their immediate neighborhood and enjoy the friendship and goodwill of all their neighbors.

The Dean woman has a newliness in the insane assylum at Central Islip, and it is supposed that in visiting this relative Norman and their financial solvency. At any rate, the soon began to work on their credibility. Hueband Waa First Victim Mrs. Norman, blessed with a greater degree of perspicacity, perhaps than her husband, did not respond to the suggestions and hints given her by Alice Dean to the effect that something was wrong with her and that only such treatment as the Deans could give would be helpful. The Norman, the other such fearsome suggestions, myfriarly told of by the scheming soothsayer did not move Mrs. Norman, but from the account told Judge Brainer, Mr. Norman was not such term mental stuff as his wife. Without her knowledge, from time to time, he surreptitiously paid over all the sum in funds to a aggregate amount of $25, the payment of which sum was to bring him protection from all the evil influence which, according to the Deans, were surrounding him at all times. The story goes on then to tell that after this amount had been secured from the husband, the wife was again attacked, the insidious suggestion being made to her that her with his protection money and so was removed from the sphere of danger, but that condition only made more precarious the wife's situation. Medicine Made Her Sick Judge Brainerd immediately got in touch with the District Attorney of Surfolk County and laid the matter before the judge. He asked the judge to Mrs. Norman and heard her tale. Then he issued a warrant of arrest for Alice Dean, and officers took her to the county court house, where after a brief hearing, she was held and reminded to return. The judge gave on Monday, and the woman held for the May grand jury. ARVONIA & ALLEN HOUSE 115% West 235th Street. Nearly furnished Rooms from $2.50 to $6.00 per week, with use of Kitchen.

S. 119, Holds Meeting The monthly meeting of the Parent's Association of Public School 119 was held in the auditorium of the school on Thursday afternoon, February 16.

You would have thought, too, if you could have looked in at the two jolly parties they had last week. On Monday afternoon the high school girls celebrated Lincoln's birthday with a party and on Wednesday the younger girls had a valentine party. The gym was a riot of color with decorations of red and white—strings and strings of little red hearts, and airy big red balloons. The girls' pretty paper frocks added to the picture and fun reigned. If you are a girl under eighteen and do not belong to the Girl Reserves you are missing lots of fun and a big opportunity. I wonder if most girls realize what an asset a weekly visit to a beauty parlor might be to them. Real worth character and ability are 'all, doubtless, far more important than mere appearance, but it takes time to prove these qualities, and our personal appearance is the badge we wear by which the general public must judge and classify us. It is, also, not a bad index to character, and girls in business should, by all means, be well groomed and, in an unconspicuous fashion, attractive. In this the "Y" beauty parlor can help you. The fees are reasonable, surroundings and atmosphere pleasant. Even if you come in regularly only long enough to learn something of the intelligent care of your hair, skin and hands, you will find that you have made an investment which will bear interest in the years of your business career. The parlor is open from 2 to 10 p.m. and mornings by appointment. Mrs. Ethel Callaway Fearing is in charge. An especially interesting Sunday afternoon service is planned for February 25th, when J. E. Moorland, of the International Y. M. C. A. Committee will speak here at the Branch. Many people who do not know Mr. Moorland have known for years of his work as head of Y. M. C. A. work among colored men all over the country and will be interested to hear him and to meet him. The service will be at 4. We expect to have several excellent musical numbers. The Girl Reserves were heard from again on last Sunday. They had charge of the Sunday service and gave a Morality Play, "The House of the Heart." On February 26, the six Calendar Clubs that will have been working one month for six hundred new members will close their half of the Inter-Club Membership Rally. On March 6, the March, April, May, June, July and August Clubs will start on the second half of the race. Next week the February Club will meet on Tuesday, February 27; the November Club on Wednesday, and the August Club on Thursday. The literary and dramatic groups of the Beaux-Arts Club will meet on Thursday, March 1, 9 o'clock. We are grateful to Mrs Irene Pickens for a donation of magazines. Recent out of town visitors to the Branch were, B. M. Ward, J. R. Chester, N. Y.; Mrs. D. J. Tysler, B.ton, N. Y.; Miss Isabelle Geller and Mrs. F. Y. McDaniel, Binghamton, N. Y., and Albert B.

HOWARD, 205 West 11th street, died at his late home, on February 20, 1923, of cancer. He was born January 29, 1854, in New Bedford, Mass, and was the son of Shadrach and Helen L. Moward and a great-grandson of Capt. Paul Coffee of Westport, Mass. His family moved from New Bedford to Fall River, Mass., in 1856. Mr. Howard was educated in the public school in Fall River and graduated fourth in high school in that city, after which he secured a clerkship in an insurance firm and later on entered into that business on his own behalf. He moved to New York in 1889 and entered the United States Custom House in Wall street in 1889 and remained there until a short time before his death, having retired from that position. His great grandfather, Captain Paul Cuffee, was a Negro navigator, and Mr. Howard erected in 1913 in Westport. Mass., a granite monument to perpetuate his memory. Mr. Howard had never married and was a member of St. Philips' Church in West 133rd street. Among his relatives are a niece, Helen Hazard Matthews; a nephew, Wendell H. Hazard; cousins, Gertrude West Ames and Lizie Howard West. Mr. Howard left a will in which he remembers some of his relatives and gives five thousand dollars to the Hampton Normal and Industrial Institute of Hampton, Virginia; for a scholarship to be known as the Captain Paul Cuffes Scholarship; to the Hope Day Nursery in West 133rd street and St. Philips Protestant Episcopal Church he gives $100 each. He bequeaths the residue of his estate to the Tuskegee Normal and Industrial Institute of Alabama to form a fund to create scholarships of $50 each to deserving colored students to be known as the Captain Paul Cuffe Scholarships. He appoints John H. Judge, a New York lawyer, as executor of his will which was made in 1920. Mr. Howard will be burned in his family plot in New Bedford, Mass., at the convenience of his family. Funeral services were held on Thursday evening at 8 p.m., from the Wm C. Perry Understaking Parlors, Rev. H. C. Bishop, officiating. MICROBAN In loving and constant memory of my devoted husband, J.
