CAMP CRUELTIES IN FLORIDA PUT STOP TO LEASING PRESUMERS
Bill Abolishing Lease System Passes State Senate
By Vote of Thirt
To One
Senator Stokes Makes Bill Against the Lash Special Order for Friday.
(Special to The New York Age)
Tallahassee, Fla.—Disclosures as to criefies practiced in the convict road camps, following upon the death of Martin Talbert, a young white man from North Dakota, as a result of beatings administered in one of the camps, have accrued the State of Florida to take grave measures to bring about a correction of this condition.
The shipping boss, Higgingbotham, has been indicted for murder and held for trial. The State Legislature has pledged a bill abolishing the leasing of convicts to private firms, and Governor Gary A Hardie has announced the preparation of an order removing from office Gunny Judge Benjamin Franklin Willis and Sheriff James Robert Jones, the two Iron County officers named in connection with the Putnam Lumber Company outrages.
In the testimony given by Perry Poppell jailer of Leon County for twenty-six years, he horrified the committee members more than any other witness had done. In a matter of fact way, and with the unmistake cander, Poppell told to his connection with Sheriff Jones and Judge Willis, up to last December, when he was discharged by Sheriff Jones.
"No Use To Lie," Said Jailler
He did not been a drinking man up to twenty years ago, when Jones became sherrif, declared Poppell, but admitted that with Sheriff Jones he drank heavily. "Tam no use to he about it. Everybody I knew I did," said the witness, Poppell told how the sherrif and two deputies would scour the roads and bring in bottles as late as ten o'clock at night. When Senator Stokes, chairman of the committee, asked how it was the sherrif would find the judge at that time of night, Poppell said, "Oh, he'd be sitting there all the time alongside his deni-john."
And he told how Judge Willis, Sheriff Jones, the two deputies, Gray and Barineau, and himself would all be drunk together.
The committee room grew quiet—as he described how Jones and his deputies Gray and Barineau, took a Negro woman out in the woods one night and took turns holding her down while one beat her with a heavy lash to make her promise not to reveal how a certain Negro had been shot.
Struck Her in Mouth
After lashing her till they grew tired he said Jones jerked her to her feet and struck her on the mouth. Then Barryne got a thin wire cable from the car and twisted it around her neck until she clicked. Next the three proposed to hang the torned woman then and there, but he did all were too drunk to climb the tree over which they intended to pass the wire.
When the bill to abolish the leasing system came up for final action, it was passed by a vote of 30 to one, one Senator not voting. The only vote against it was cast by N. J. Wicker of Gleman, who insisted on speaking on flogging of prisoners, though that subject was not under consideration.
Wicker comes from a district where civilians have been a profitable supply of labor to private concerns operating populate mines. Getting the floor he handed out into a tirade.
Senator Wicker's Wild Ravings
This legislature seems to have gone wild in the subject of convicts and their leasing and lashing," he said bitterly, "it seems to be trying to make heroes out of convicts. A lot of wild stories about flogging have been published, but (Outlined on Second Page)
ANTI-LYNCHING BILL
PASSED BY PA. HOUSE
AND GOES TO SENATE
Act, Modelled After Dyer Bill, By Rep. Stevens, Urged By Gov. Pinchet
(Special to The New York Age)
Harrison, Pa. After four hours
death which carried the night's session
into the early morning hours, the Stev-
er Ant-Lynching Bill passed the House
of Representatives on April 18 with
a negative vote recorded against
it. Sooner was the interest in this
measure, as evidenced by the crowd in
attendance which packed every available
space, the result of the balloting came
as a great surprise.
So faithfully the author of this
permanent legislation engineered this
measure that every amendment proposed
was defeated. The bill is almost a re-
plica of the Dyer Bill, as it was origi-
nally introduced in Congress. The only
difference is that it is made applicable
to the State.
The entire Democratic delegation of
bate-shee-members voted for the Stev-
er Bill. The one negative vote was
given to a Republican. The bill goes to
the Senate next Wednesday for final
passage and will soon become a law,
a Governor Pinchot is strongly urging
the measure.
Representative Andrew F. Stevens,
the author of the bill, is a member of
the well known banking firm of Becom-
& Stevens. Philadelphia

Northern Artists Cater To Southern Prejudice By Barring Negro Student
Augusta Savage, 23-Year-Old Florida Girl, Refused Permission By Committee To Take Art Course at Fontainebleau School of the Fine Arts in France.
IS ACCEPTED BUT WHEN COUNTEE FINDS SHE'S COLORED IT WRITES HER APPLICATION IS REFUSED
School Is Under Patronage of French Government But Is For American Students and Selections Are Made By Committee of Eminent American Artists.
Augusta Savage, a 23-year-old Florida girl, has been refused permission to enter the Fontainebleau School of the Fine Arts, at the Palace of Fontainebleau, France, a summer school for American architects, painters and sculptors, conducted under patronage of the French government. The rejection of Miss Savage is done by a committee of eminent American artists, men born mostly in the East and West and who have lived in Europe and New York for years, and they base their action simply and solely on the fact that the applicant is a member of the Negro race, and as such would be personally objectionable to southern white students who have been chosen by the committee.
NEGRO VETERANS' HOSPITAL
AT TUSKEGEE INSTITUTE TO
HAVE RACE DOCTORS-NURSES
NEGRO VETERANS' HOSPITAL
AT TUSKEGEE INSTITUTE TO
HAVE RACE DOCTORS-NURSES
Washington, D. C.—President Harding has put a quietus upon the disquieting rumors which have been insidiously and industriously circulated throughout the country during recent weeks to the effect that the new Veterans' Hospital recently erected at Tuskegee Institute, Ala., for the care of Negro wounded war veterans, would be manned by white physicians and nurses.
Under date of April 16, the Secretary to the President, George B. Christian, wrote to Dr. George E. Cannon of Jersey City, chairman of the executive board of the National Medical Association, composed of colored men, that a proposed conference with the President on the subject was unnecessary, saying definitely, "I can assure you that the hospital in question is to be organized with a colored personnel."
Representing the Negro physicians, dentists and pharmacists of the country, Dr. Cannon wrote to President Harding, on April 11, calling attention to reports that the Veterans' Hospital would be manned by white physicians and nurses, an dasking for an appointment at which officers of the medical body could discuss the matter.
In reply to this letter, Secretary Christian wrote as follows:
"My dear Dr. Cannon:—Your letter of April 11th has been received and I have laid it before the President. It will not be necessary for you to go to the expenses and trouble of a visit to Washington for the purpose to which you refer, as I can assure you that the hospital in question is to be organized with a colored personnel."
Miss Savage is a student of sculpture at the Cooper Union, this city, a member of the "life" class. She is a native of Green Cove Springs, Fla, and has lived in West Palm Beach, that state. She came to New York City two years ago, and won consideration from the Cooper Union authorities by her undeniable talent and unlimited ambition. She has gained considerable reputation in local circles by busts she mobilized of W. E. B. DuBois, which was presented to the West 135th street branch library, and of Marcus Garvey, head of the U. N. I. A.
Coming to New York two years ago, the young colored girl entered Cooper Union to study sculpturing, and her progress has been exceptional. The school at Fontainebleau has had a music school for Americans for two years, but the school of fine arts is open this year for the first time. The term will be from June 25 to September 25. One hundred American students are to be admitted each year. Through aid extended by the French government, it has been made possible for students to take advantage of the course at a total cost of $1,000, which includes the tuition fee.
Virginia Beach the Monitor
Interested friends raised the sum necessary for Miss Savage's expenses, but since her rejection she has returned to them the various amounts contributed. The committee has power to select the 100 American students as it sees fit, and it has made a final decision in rejecting Miss Savage, but the case will not end here. Alfred W. Martin of 995 Madison avenue, one of the leaders of the Ethical Society of New York, will sail for Europe Saturday, April 28, and will place the matter before the French authorities at Fontainbleau. He said he felt certain the French would not approve of any discrimination on racial grounds. As chairman of the committee's Department of Painting and Sculpture, Ernest Peixotto had charge of Miss Savage's application. His paintings have been exhibited many times at Paris salons and leading American exhibitions; he is author of half a dozen books, illustrator of many others, a Chevalier of the Legion of Hooor and a member of many clubs and art associations.
Famous Artists
Whitney Warren, architect of many well known buildings, is chairman of the committee's Department of Architecture. The other members are: Edwin F. Blashfield, president of the National Academy of Design, and one of the best known painters in this country. Howard Greenley, president of the Architectural League. Thomas Hastings, architect of the New York Public Library and other notable buildings; Chevalier of the Legion of Honor; president of the Beaux Arts Institute of Design. J. Monroe Hewitt, president of the Mural Painters. Hermon A. MacNeil, sculptor, who has specialised in Indian subjects; winner of many medals; president of the National Sculpture Society.

Accepted. Then Rejected
Under date of February 24, Mr. Peixotto, from the American headquarters of the committee at the National Arts Club Studios, 119 East 19th street, wrote Miss Savage that her application, with letter of recommendation, from principal of the Cooper Union Art School, had been received, and asked that she complete the preliminary enrollment by sending $35, $10 of which was for registration fee and $25 a deposit on steamship passage. The letter also informed her that two letters of personal recommendation from prominent members of her community were required by the French authorities with each application for admission. The additional information was given Miss Savage that most of the students would sail June 13 on the SS. France, second class. The required $35 was promptly sent by the applicant, but under date of March 14, the following curt and abrupt note was sent her:
"My dear Miss Savage:—I regret to inform you that the executive committee of the Fontainebleau School of the Fine Arts at its last meeting failed to approve your application for admission to the school. We are, therefore, sending you herewith our check for $35, refunding the first payment that you made with your application.
—(Signed) ERNEST PEIXOTT, Chairman, Department of "Painting and Sculpture."

THE MAYOR OF BROOKLYN
For four days last week large crowds were attracted to the Knoedler Galleries, 556 Fifth avenue, by a life-size and life-like oil portrait of Dr. R. R. Moton, principal of Tuskegee Institute, painted by the celebrated Austrian artist, A. de Ferraris. Many prominent New Yorkers attended the exhibition.
The painting, which has been sent to Hampton Institute, is a remarkable likeness of the educator and humanitarian. Before the World War A. de Ferraris won fame as an artist, having as clients the crowned heads of Europe, including the Kaiser.
When he started the oil painting of Dr. Moton the artist said: "I have painted the portraits of kings of vast domains in Europe and kings of finance in America; now I have the honor to paint the portrait of the king of human sympathy."
George Foster Peabody as trustee of the Palmer Fund has had Mr. de Ferraris paint a duplicate of this portrait for presentation to Tuskegee Institute.

Brooklynite Has Attained Distinctive Place—Ten Years at Union Theol. Seminary.
McVillie Charlton, organist, composer, teacher and coach, has made a musical career unique and distinctive. Few musicians of any race are better equipped, intellectually or technically, and few are so modest. He lives with his mother and sisters at 405 Cumberland street, Brooklyn, N. Y.
He has recently compiled ten years of service as organist for the Sunday services held at the Union Theological Seminary, Broadway and 120th street, and on this occasion he was publicly complimented and congratulated by the Seminary president, the Rev. Dr. McGilffet, and members of the faculty, who expressed the greatest satisfaction with Mr. Charlton's work. The Union Seminary is one of the leading theological institutions in the world.
A feature of the occasion was the statement by George Coe, professor in the Department of Psychology and Religion, that Mr. Charlton's organ playing had been a distinct contribution to the religious atmosphere of the school. Prof. Hume of the Department of Philosophy of Religion, presented Mr. Charlton an autographed copy of his translation from the Sanscript of the "Upanishads."

TEN-YEAR OLD BOY
KILLED BY TRUCK
ON EIGHTH AVENUE
Considerable excitement was caused in the vicinity of Eighth avenue and 137th street on Friday afternoon, April 20, when Sidney Allen, 10 years of age, was run down by a large truck of the Consolidated Drug Company. The accident occurred while Allen, with several other boys was playing ball in the street. The truck did not run over his body, but gruck him with such force that his skull was fractured. A taxicab was hailed and he was rushed to the Harlem Hospital, but died soon after arriving there. He lied with his parents at 2340 Seventh avenue and was a pupil at P. S. 5. The driver of the truck, Bartholomew Campbell, was detained at the 33rd Precinct station, but was later released, when he established the fact that he was not responsible for the accident.

First Negro West Point Graduate Was Connected With Dept. of Interior.
The first Negro graduate from the United States Military Academy at West Point, Lieutenant Henry Ossian Flipper, recently employed in Washington as a special assistant under former Secretary of the Interior Fall, sailed from New York on Saturday, April 15, for Venezuela, South America, where he will serve as a engineer for a big oil syndicate, in which former Secretary Fall is interested.
Lieuts Flipper has had large experience as a mining engineer, and has a distinctive place because of work he has accomplished in Mexico and the southwest section of the United States. His knowledge of Spanish land grants made him of inestable service in the Interior Department in solving questions that arose concerning Mexican properties and boundaries.
Following the recent resignation of Secretary Fall from the President's Cabinet, Lieu, Flipper resigned also, as his work in that department was largely of a character attaching to Secretary Fall personally. In going to South America, the former army officer is under a five years' contract, at a salary of $6,000 per year.

THREE NEGROES ARE FREED FROM MURDER CHARGE BY THE COURT Police Say Men Confessed, But District Attorney Says No Evidence Is Presented.
Murder of Chinaman on January 20 Remains An Unsolved Mystery.
Notwithstanding that the police swore the men had admitted their guilt, and even produced witnesses who testified the men had been seen upon the promises of the alain man, three Negroes were discharged from custody in the Tombs, where they had been held on a murder indictment, when Assistant District Attorney John F. Joyce said Judge Morris Koeing in the Court of General Session that there was no evidence to connect either of the three colored men with the crime and that trial of them would be a useless financial burden on the State.
On January 20, last, George Tom, a Chinese laundryman, was found dead in his shop, at 274 West 143rd street, early in the morning with a bullet in his head. Joscelyn McLeod, 19, Leroy Jones, 19, both of 164 West 140th street, and James Jardine, 21, of 151 West 140th street, three colored men, were arrested, charged with the crime, as several witnesses testified they had been seen entering the laundry earlier in the morning. On the strength of this testimony, supplemented by a declaration from the police that two of the men had confessed, the Grand Jury returned, a murder indictment against the men, and they had been held in the Tombs awaiting trial since that time.
According to this alleged confession, as put out by the police, both Jones and McLeod had confessed participation in the crime, but each charged the other with having fired the fatal shot. However, according to Assistant District Attorney Joyce, in his statement to Judge Koenig, recommending that the men be discharged, he declared that there was no evidence of attempted robbery or of unlawful entry, and that there was no hope of securing a conviction in the case. Judge penigre agreed and entered an order of discharge of the men from custody on Friday, April 20.

are still too many of these places,
30th to 139th streets and in the
3rd, 134th and 135th streets, are
sets, saloons, and other similar
g out.
There are eight saloons, operating as cafes on Fifth avenue, but most of the other places are on the side streets near the avenue. Many of these places sell intoxicating beverages in violation of the prohibition law with sedition any molestation from the police. The pool rooms and cabarets seem to be especially prosperous.
In speaking of Negroes in business in Harlem, the most prosperous businesses being operated by colored at this time—with exception of the "hooch" selling delicatessen stores and saloons, which are mostly owned by whites and managed by colored—are the cabarets and pool rooms.
There are some first class cabarets which are furnishing legitimate entertainment, but most of the places in the vicinity of Fifth avenue are basement dives. While the management of these places always have several guards or "bouncers" to see that there is no fighting, drunkenness, indecent dancing and vulgar language may be seen and heard nightly. Despite these sordid conditions these places continue to flourish and several new ones have opened in basements on 135th street during the past year.
The little pool rooms in the vicinity of Fifth avenue are almost as degrading as the cabarets, and while they may furnish recreation to some, many of them offer a place to gamble, and are used more largely for this purpose than for recreation.
Protable Business
The pool-room business in Harlem is the only one that can boast of complete colored ownership and control. During the past five years several pool-room owners have made a handsome profit out of this business. So profitable has this business been that three pool-rooms, with twenty-five to thirty tables, have been opened during the past year. The first of these was opened in the Capitol building, 139th street and Lenox avenue, by A. C. Deming about a year ago. Up to that time this was the largest pool-room in Harlem and probably the largest owned by a colored man in the country. It was newly fitted with thirty pool and billiard tables, cheek room, cigar and cigarette counter. It has been doing an unusually prosperous business, and the proprietor, who also operates another large pool-room over the Roosevelt Theatre, recently purchased a 50,000 Pierre-Arrow car.
During the past month, two other pool-rooms, equally as large, have been opened at 129th-130th street and Lenox avenue. The first of these was opened by C. E. Hutchinson at 130th street and Lenox avenue. Mr. Hutchinson has been a successful real estate operator for several years, with offices at 134th street and Fifth avenue. His pool-room has been fitted with 30 new pool and billiard tables, and is doing a fairly good business. The last of these large pool-rooms to open was "Jake's," owned by Jacobs, who for a number of years conducted a successful pool room on Seventh avenue, near 135th street. It has been fitted with 27 new pool and billiard tables. All of these places are being operated by colored employees.
While some of these places cater to the better element of the amusement seeking public, the fact that such a large percentage of the people of Harlem give so much of their time and money to amusements and the pursuit of pleasure, seems to be one of the reasons the race is not progressing as it should in this city.
GIN EXPLODES IN POLICE STATION
Blast Rocks Building and Injures Policeman Sealing Up the Liquor.
Inspector's detectives early Saturday morning swapped down on a cider store in Benox avenue, near 130th street, seized three hundred bottles of gin and took it to the West 135th street station in a police patrol, where it was duly entered on the record by Lieutenant O'Connor.
Policeman William O'Connor, of No. 846 Fifty-fourth street, Brooklyn, was assigned to the task of sealing the three hundred bottles and went to work behind the desk with his wax, glue and seals.
Five minutes later there was a blast that shook the station house and revived the belief of the Harlem Holy Roller that the end of the world had come. Gin spattered the walls of the police station like a new whitewash, and bootlegger perfume wafted through the district on a gentle breeze, bringing scores of gin hounds on the trail.
After Dr. Blomenkowitz, of the Harlem Hospital, had finished picking the pieces of glass out of O'Connor's face, hands and body, the policeman went home. The lieutenant yawn unstained, but the gin was nearly destroyed.

Washington, D. C.—Washington of the Board of the Uni returned from Europe last denunciation of the present claims prevents European americain sufficient number age. In well informed circl opening gun in what may be in the next twelve months in "open shop" or the tariff.
Washington, D. C.—When Judge E. H. Gary, chairman of the Board of the United States Steel Corporation, returned from Europe last week his first interview was a denunciation of the present immigration law which he claims prevents European workmen from coming to America in sufficient numbers to relieve the labor shortage. In well informed circles it is said that this is the opening gun in what may become a much more live issue in the next twelve months in American politics than the "open shop" or the tariff.
The bringing into prominence of this section of restricted immigration deep concerns the members of our group, any of whom are of the opinion that its restriction and its continuance until we get a foothold in industry, means more to us than any legislation enacted recent years.
The race needs and must have, particularly in the North and West, more farm owners and share and cash tenants, and efforts are being made to get them, but we do not need more "dropers" who own neither work animals nor farm implements, and who are, strictly speaking, FARM LABORERS instead of farmers.
Means More for the Negro
It means the distribution of larger payrolls to Negro workers in the industrial centers, and an increased apportionment of money to our racial doctors, lawyers, ministers and business men. It means more homes, more children in school, more business enterprises and the strengthening of our insurance companies, our banks and our fraternal societies in the North.
There are those who even go so far to franckly express the opinion that such legislation is more important to the race generally than the passage of Dyer bills or the appointment of a few politicians to big jobs.
Be this as it may, none of us can deny the fact that more progress can be made through an association with highly organized and intelligent industrial groups, and through the handling of intricate machinery them can be made by driving mule down a dusty country road, or by engaging oneself in the seasonable occupation of picking a field of cotton or the other fall.
As there has not been until recently much of a migration from the South, since the year 1920, it is believed that the United States census figures for that era might, well be used for the purpose of indicating a source of unskilled labor. Apply that can be further drawn upon to relieve the labor shortage, at least until Congress meets next fall and attempts to modify the present immigration law over the protests of the labor chiefs who are satisfied with present conditions, and who maintain that the manufacturers in order to keep cost of labor prefer to invest their men at the gate applying for work when only fifty or a hundred jobs open.
Thousands are Available
If the employment representatives of northern industry are crying, as some wappers report, for unskilled labor, they should canvass the rural districts in the South where there are thousands of colored farmers operating small farms under a "cropper system" that will not permit them nor their children, nor their children's children to become owners, this class of tenant farmers of whom there are several hundred thousand, and or whose progress there can be but little hope under existing conditions, constitute the peons and serfs of our WESTERN CHRISTIAN civilization, of which we all so loudly boast.
In Bolivar county, Mississippi, for instance, out of a total of 12,808 farm herders in 1920 there are 11,833 Negro farmers of whom only about 590 were owners. The total acreage of farm land in this county is less by 225,000 acres than in Lancaster county, Pennsylvania, the richest general farming county in the United States from the landpoint of value of products raised, Bolivar county had more. Negro farmers alone than there were native white, foreign-born white and Negro farmers in Washington county, Mississippi, with a farm acreage less 40,000 acres from Frederick county, Maryland, there were 8,674 Negro farmers, or 2,400 more than in all of the 24 counties of Maryland combined, but in Maryland there were more than 3,500 colored owners as compared with only 284 owners in the Mississippi county.
In Laffore county, Mississippi, there are 3,661 Negroes who operated farms eraging about 35 acres. The total land farms there was about 60,000 less in reage than in Burlington county, New racy, where there are only 2,122 farms in the county. In the New Jersey county the farms erage about 125 acres as compared to 25 acres in Bolivar, 34 in Washington and 35 in Laffore.
Iany. More "Crowpers" Than Needed"
The average number of farms in the 53 county comprising the United area is about 2,112, and the proportion owners per 1,000 operators is 609 per 1,000 operators. Both Polk county there were only 31 in Washington county only 33, and Lafayette county only 21 Negro farms per 1,000 operators as compared to the total for all farmers, or with the proportion of 224 owners per 1,000 operators for the Negro farmers throughout United States.
It then appears that there are several uses in Magro *Nagro* "cropper" farmers are needed down there and that the ram average among this class of farm should be increased in size to more worldly compare with the general average of 148 acres per farm as requested for the United States as a whole. Such an arrangement would probably leave about 200,000 workers, whose enlarge into the manufacturing industries would greatly relieve the growing labor shortage so sincerely deployed by the U.S. Trust officials. Unless a man is rick farming and has good market factors, there is not much hope for suburban progress, especially for a "crop" in operating a 25 or 35-acre farm.

These discouraging conditions prevail throughout the South, and it would not be a difficult matter to list more than 250 counties in which the number of Negro farmers range from 1,000 to 8,000, and in which the proportion of owners does not greatly exceed, if at all, 100 instead of 609, or 236 per 1,000 operators.
These small farm counties with the hopeless "cropper system" in such states as Alabama, Georgia, Louisiana, Mississippi, and North and South Carolina, should be brought to the attention of the captains of industry now that they anticipate a labor shortage.
Certainly loyal American workers should be given a preference over foreign-born carers many of whom refuse to be melted in the great American melting pot, as was demonstrated during the war.
The attention of the manufacturer should also be directed to the 216 counties in which Negroes constitute from 50 to 90 per cent. of the total population and in which there are nearly three quarters of a million colored males 21 years of age and over. By drawing on this source of labor the Southern white people would be relieved of the fear of Negro domination, and would no doubt gladly assist in the work of recruiting large numbers of colored men for Northern enterprises.
NORTHERN ARTISTS CATER TO SOUTHERN PREVIOCE BY BARRING NEGRO STUDENT
(Continued from First Page)
application, Chairman Peixoto has said the committee considered the matter fully and had decided that the best way out of the situation was to disapprove the application. He declared that many of the students sailing on June 13 are from the South and that Miss Savage would have to be in close association with them on the ship and at the school, and that this was potentially disagreeable to both parties.
But the matter is being taken up by Mr. Martin of the Ethical Culture Society, who became interested in the case while lecturing at the West 135th street library. "A friend to Miss Savage, acquainted with the facts, mentioned the matter to him, and he immediately wrote Mr. Peixoto, asking if the committee action was based on the girl's color. In telling of the result of Mr. Martin's and Miss Savage's reply, "In his reply Mr. Peixoto apologe of my failure to enclose recommendations with my application, but devoted the greater part of his letter to a 'frank' admission that the committee voted against me because they had learned I was not a white girl.
"I don't care so much for myself, because I will get along all right here, but other and better colored students might wish to apply some time. This is the first year the school is open and I am the first colored girl to apply. I don't like to see them establish such a precedent. "Democracy is a strange thing," she add. "My brother was obligated to be accepted in one of the regimes that saw service in France during the war, but it seems his sister is not good enough to be a guest of the country for which he fought."

HEARTLESS POLICY OF GOVERNMENT TOWARDS COLORED CAVALRYMEN More Than 100 Families Broken Up Because Transportation Is Denied Families.
Manilla, *Philippine Islands*—The departure homeward on April 6, board the army transport. Thomas, of fourteen enlisted men of the Ninth Cavalry, declares an almost unparalleled exhibition of governmental heartlessness toward families and married soldiers. Out of the fourteen enlisted men leaving on the Thomas, six will abandon Philippine wives, two others who will be discharged from the Army, are paying $125 out of their saving for government transportation and raffron charges for each member of their families while the remaining six will preserve their families intact through funds advanced them by the Red Cross and for the repayment of which they have pledged their Army pay for many months to come.
The six wives, who will be deserted added to those previously abandoned by American soldiers ordered home, will make more than a hundred homes that have been wrecked as a result of the government's policy in the treatment of the families of enlisted men. Seventen former members of the Ninth Calvary, all fathers of families, now are in the Philippines forced to remain here because they were unable to raise transportation passage fares for the wives and children.
That the War Department has not realized the suffering which its unexpected orders have entailed on the Ninth Calvary, which has been stationed in the Philippines for many years, is shown by an investigation made by Brigadier General Johnson Hagood, commanding Camp Stokeewood. Out of 800 enlisted men in the regiment, a total of 277 had either legal or common law wives in the Philippines, while more than 100 are the fathers of children.
In contrast with the American policy of free transportation for the French and German wives and children of enlisted men, the government offered these colored veterans the alternative of either deserting their wives and offsprings here or transporting them to their new posts at their own expense.
CAMP CRUELTIES IN FLORIDA PUT STOP TO LEASING PRISONERS
(Borned from First Page)
it's my opinion that they are greatly exaggerated.
"There are a lot of things I don't know anything about, but there are two things I do know about. They are mules and niggers.
"You want to abolish the flogging of convicts, but I tell you corporal punishment is the only way a convict nigger can be controlled."
Senator Stokes jumped to his feet. As Chairman of the Investigating Committee he has heard in the last few days a lot of first hand and reliable testimony as to flogging of convicts. "May I remind the Senator," he observed ironically, "the bill under discussion has nothing to do with the subject of whippings."
"I don't care whether it has or not," returned Senator Wicker. "I'd like to take a broadside shot at the question right now."
Trouble Is With Inspectors
"The trouble now," he said, "tin't with leases, it's with the inspectors of county camps. There are, of course, cases where individuals other than inspectors should be punished. This convict guard, Higginghamham, who admits he whipped young Tabernt when he was sick, ought to be put in stripes himself for example, and I think he ought to be taken out on the anniversary of Tabernt's death each year and whipped publicly.
"But unruly niggers can't be controlled without whipping them. I know one who had killed another nigger, was sent to jail, and then leased out to a private corporation. When he finished his term he told me about his experiences. He told me they had told him to make a certain kind of box, but he pretended not to know how.
"They tried to teach him three days and he still pretended and at last they sent him to the whipping boss. 'When he got through with me,' he said, 'I could make boxes just as good as anybody.' All of which goes to show it takes corporal punishment to get work out of convict niggers."
The Anti-Wrapping Bill
Senator Stokes had already announced he intended to resuscitate Senator W. C. Hodges' bill, Senate Bill 41, to abolish whippings, introduced by the Committee on Prisons and Convicts two weeks ago and "killed," and moved that the rules be suspended and it be brought up for immediate discussion. Senator H. G. Putnam, chairman of that committee, reported on April 11 that the committee had decided against it.
The viva rose vote was 15 to 15, Senators Igno and Wells not voting. Senator Stokes rose with indignation in his voice.
"Then I move to make the bill a special order of business next Friday," he said, "and I serve notice right here and now I am going to bring this subject up every day of the session until I get action."
Senator Stokes has this motion and declared outside the Senate chamber that
C. M. E. Church Conference Acts On Labor Situation
Adopts Strong Resolution Denouncing Non-Observation of 14th-15th Amendments—Opposed Revision of Immigration Laws as Unfavorable to Negro Labor.
THE NEW YORK AGE
The Washington-Philadelphia Conference of the Colored Methodist Episcopal Church met last week in Anacostia, D. C. Bishop R. D. A. Carter of Chicago presided over the sessions. Statistical reports indicated substantial increases in both finance and membership. One of the districts more than doubled its financial report of last year. Prominent among the visitors present at the Conference were Dean D. Butler Pratt and Dr. Starling Brown, both of the School of Religion of Howard University; Dr. J. P. Wragg of the American Bible Society; Dr. Carter G. Woodson, of the Association for the Study of Negro Life and History; Dr. G. C. Parker, editor of the Christian Index; and J. J. A. Martin, editor of the Sunday-school Literature.
A strong statement bearing on public issues was made by the Committee on the State of the Country, of which the following paragraphs are typical:
"We affirm our belief in the Eighteenth Amendment and our desire to see it enforced. At the same time we marvel at the hypocrisy and inconsistency of people who would turn heaven and earth to secure the enforcement of the Eighteenth Amendment while for fifty years they have supinely sat by and permitted the Fourteenth and Fifteenth Amendments to be trampled under foot by the very people who are now loudest in their protest that the Eighteenth Amendment shall be enforced. We stand for enforcement of all the Amendments.
"We reaffirm our belief in the Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill and express our disappointment and disgust at the present Administration for its cowardly surrender of principle when this bill was up for consideration before the Senate.
"We submit to Mr. Gary of the U. S. Steel Corporation and others who are urging revision of the immigration laws to meet the present labor shortage that if the millions of Negroes in this country, who have either been ignored altogether or given only a seab's chance in this industry, were given an opportunity to prove themselves a labor asset, there no need of recruiting labor's ranks through immigration. Therefore while we are in full sympathy with European workers in the conditions surrounding them, we believe that their interests as well as our own necessitate a continuance of the present immigration laws.
Charleston Church
Closes Its 56th Year
of Successful Effort
e Charleston, S. C.—Plymouth Congregational Church, Charleston, S. C. Rev. C. S. Ledbetter, pastor, has just celebrated its 50th anniversary with appropriate exercises;
At the annual business meeting rounded reports were made from all the departments.

The trustees' report showed that all current bills had been paid, with a small cash balance on hand.
The church has adopted the "every member system" for the coming year. The result of the election showed that a number of young men have been put in harness for the coming year.

Sheriff and Judge Make Money
Sheriff Jones and Judge Willis made a good thing out of the leasing of convicts, from a financial point. A contract was made with the lumber company on August 15, 1921, under which Jones and his men got $20 for every convict sent to the prison camp. In the seven months preceding this contract only twenty men were arrested for beating their way, but in the succeeding seven months, 154 were corralled. Of 165 men arrested for beating their way, Sheriff Jones testified that he delivered 163 to the lumber company at $20 a head. The Sheriff made 107 taken to Taylor County by automobile, thirty-three trips being made at a cost of about $5 a trip. This figures out a net profit for the sheriff of $1,905, in addition to his regular fees from the county.
Judge Willis likewise profited financially. In 1919 convictions in the County Court totalled 228, and in 1920, 213. Judge Willis took office in January, 1921, and his convictions for that year totalled 567. For 1922, he totalled 529 during the first ten months. The fees paid the judge who preceded Willis were 82,512.88 for 1970, but Willis collected during 1921 the sum of 85,443.52. Records show Sheriff Jones's gross receipts during thirteenth months following the making of the contract to have $10,804.84.
YONKERS' MINISTERS
STIRRED BY DENIAL
OF VIRGINITY OF MARY
Speaker at Garvey Meeting
Argues Against Reality of
Adam and Eve's Birth.
(Special to The New York Age)
Yonkers, N.Y.—Followers of Mar-
cus Garvey, who are holding meetings
here every Sunday, had as speaker
last Sunday a man who denied the
virginity of Mary, the Mother of Jesus;
and the reality of the birth of Adam
and Eve.
The speaker was said to have been R. Valentine, who said that the next time he came he was going to prove that there was no such thing as God and that the three sons of Noah were just characters and not men, and much other stuff of a similar character. If this is kept up, the ministers declare they will turn on the searchlight. Many of the Garvey followers are lay preachers and designated members of the various churches. Such argument will have little effect with Yonkers' people but the charge objects to the attempt to disseminate the faceoculars which would undermine the Christian church and so will turn on the guns if the attempt is kept up.
MELVILLE CHARLTON
IN FRONT RANK OF
AMERICAN ORGANISTS
verities of America, and the congregations are composed of representatives of the aristocracy of brain.
It is another notable attainment by Mr. Charlton that for more than fifteen years he has been organist and director in one of New York's leading Jewish Synagogues. By special invitation, Mr. Charlton has conducted the musical services and played the organ in some of America's most prominent churches, among the number being the Brick Church in New York City, known familiarly as the Carnegie church, by request of the Music Teachers' Association of the State of New York, composed of the leading white instructors, Mr. Charlton played an organ recital on the unusually fine instrument in the Great Hall of the City College of New York, and he is the only Negor organist who enjoys this distinction.
The late Samuel Coleridge-Taylor, the great Afro-English composer, paid a high personal compliment to Mr. Charlton's musculature and ability, and this has been echoed by some of the leading musical formats of the country. Then it was Mr. Charlton who was the first member of his race to be made an academic member of the American Guild of Organists, with the right to attach A. A. G. O, to his name. In addition to his work as an organist, Mr. Charlton is in great demand as a teacher of the pianoforte and organ, and he is eminent also as a coach for the concert stage. Many of the leading white artists are glad to be able to secure his services, and he frequently conducts and directs operatic concerts at the Bilton, Walford Astoria, and other leading concert rooms of New York City. Other cities frequently hear him in recitals, and he enjoys a well-won place in the front ranks of Musical celebrities.
Another characteristic of Mr. Charlton is his willingness to and all worthy movements of uplift and race development. In this direction, however, he is very modest, and although there are few efforts that are helped by him in a substantial manner, his contributions are always made modestly and without any blaring of trumpets.
One sister, Dr. Emily Charlton, is one of the best equipped podiatrists in Greater New York, with handsome offices at the Cumberland street address, and another sister, Mrs. Florence Charlton Woodson, is a beauty expert, with a large clientele.

DEAN ADAMS CHOSEN PRESIDENT OF A. U. TO SUCCEED E. A. WARE
Retirement of Son of Founder Made Necessary Because of Ill Health.
At a meeting of the board of trustees of Atlanta University, Atlanta, Ga., held in New York City on Friday, April 30, it was decided to name the present acting president, Dean Mirro W. Adamson, president, no successor. The former president, Edward A. Ware, who has been on an indeterminate leaves of absence for the past three years, seeking restoration to health from the ravages of tuberculosis. The trustees met at the Madison Avenue Presbyterian Church, the Rev. Henry Sloan Coffin, pastor.
Atlanta University was founded in 1867 by the late Dr. Edward Asa Ware father of the retiring president. Dr. Adams, a descendant of John Quintney Adams, graduated from Dartmouth College, and has served for many years as Dean of A. U. During the past three years, owing to the continued illness of President Ware, Dean Adams has served as acting president. His elevation to the actual presidency will be popular with the students, alumni and friends of the school throughout the country.
Information is to the effect that Rev Laurence Fininger, chaplain of Hampton Institute, was considered by the forces for the position, than he declined being added to the retiring president. Mr. Ware, has been spending the past three years at his home in Montclair, N. J., and at Saranac Lake, N. Y. where he is at present, serving to regain his health that he might take up active work at the University, but delayed consolescence made it necessary for him to sever definitely his aool connections.

retain the principalship, and the work of the Jacksonville institution will be transferred to Daytona. It will be under the guardianship of the Board of Control of the Methodist Episcopal Church, North, but the police and plans developed by Mrs. Bethune will be carried out by her.
The work of Mrs. Bethune, in building up the Daytona School, was highly commended by Dr. Moton of Furkeegee Institute and Dr. Sage of the General Education Board, who told of the wonderful work of this college with a cash capital of but $1.50, has been established and established a school plant more than $80,000. It was organized in 1894, upon that mugre foundation, Mrs. Bethune carrying the entire burden; recent reports show that there are twenty instructors, 351 pupils, with an annual income of $51,799.
Cookman, Institute, operated for a number of years, has fourteen teachers and 261 pupils, with an income the year of 181,580. Combining the two schools, under the control of the K. E. Church, will give an immediate impetus to the work and enable Mrs. Bethune to develop more rapidly the splendid plans she has developed by expansion and growth of Daytona Institute.
It was provided, in she the merger plans, that in case of incapacitation Mrs. Bethune's future would be provided for by an ample pension, but it is hoped that it will be many years before she will have to take advantage of this provision.

A LOSSING IN DISGUISE
A man in South appeared in the Columbia County court and struck down an editorial published in the North Mo., in which the Negro was referred to as the most valuable asset of the South, as a source of skilled and unskilled labor. The State legislature admits that it does not believe that the Negro form such an asset and it is not concerned about their retention as a source of skilled and unskilled labor.
Uncle the governor, the State frankly holds that the superior of the Negroes over the South is the State law. Substantial evidence has proved that the Negroes are not unfit to work with people and the law and lynching.
The State has much more to say on the subject of migration and diversity which will amount of care and diversity which is retreating as a continent to the astonished chapter, the most Southern editions on this subject. With many of its authorities most immensely interested, will agree, if this came to a accepted in all similarity, it possibly is the time in the continuing process, which we are a plan to give the Negroes a chance, although the South Carolina case can capture its positives is hard to be sadly restricted by a supposed too city of maintaining white dominance.
We may notice to the conclusion that the restrictions on foreign immigration are excellent to what we mean in this they open the door to Negro employment in the North, especially as it is coupled with the similar condition that "they are no less in condition for the Negroes." The gift of the matter, more so far as the race is concerned, has covered in the prediction that the movement "will be an important factor in desperate efforts by the white North to relax or remove the restrictions."
The task set before these Negroes from the South, who have entered into the industries of the North, is to provide their fitness as a dependable and efficient labor element. They must show their capacity for steady employment and maximum production. There must be in training with their jobs. A week's already labor must be given for a full week's pay. There must be no demand for "days of oil" for picnics or baseball games. The fact that the State admits that the inconvenience that the South now suffers is due chiefly to "the departure of the Negroes of the better class" should make it easier to produce this proof of fitness. With such a source of efficient American labor on tap, it will be difficult to make a case for the removal of the present restrictions on foreign immigration.
The Columbia State has discussed the question from a novel *Southern viewpoint* and with an admirable spirit of
calmness and candor. Its suggestions are of value as indicating the weak points to be guarded. Migration may indeed be a blessing in disguise for all concerned.
SEGREGATED SCHOOLS
The racial separation that has for many years obtained in the public school system of Pennsylvania has given rise to a movement of protest, which has concentrated its efforts upon the Cheyney Normal School and the eleven existing schools for colored children in Philadelphia. The Rev. William Lloyd James is the leading exponent of the opposition to the present system, which he characterizes as a "Jim Crow" system. While Cheyney is defined as the immediate issue, that institution is termed but an incident in the whole policy. The situation appears to have been precipitated by the transformation of this school from a private institution for the training of colored students into a state normal school.
The segregation of the eleven existing schools for colored children in Philadelphia was accomplished without any legal statute to that effect, by the practice of the Board of Education in making appointments of colored teachers to these schools only. Colored children can, and in many instances do, attend the mixed schools, but the sentiment has come to be recognized that the only opening for teachers of the race is to be found in the segregated schools.
The white defenders of this segregation in the schools claim that "there is a natural grouping of the faces that is wise and desirable, that as a rule colored children in segregated schools get better attention and are happier than when in mixed schools." The observer of this condition, as presented by the opponents of the segregated schools, is "the inferior equipment of the Negro schools, and the lessened standards demanded simply because the whites are not as interested in Negro children as in their own and because the Negroes do not have the power or authority to correct those evils." In Philadelphia, for instance, the race has not a single member on the Board of Education.
Dr. Inez, and those who join with him in opposing this policy of segregation in the public schools, claim that it is convenient means the segregation here in the North of the same mountain and hinterlands and follows that proves in the South. They take it as well with the present friends of the race who oppose the segregation in the schools, while protesting to oppose "segregation." Their claim is that they do not interpret the experience of separate schools as secret to cannot be as long as being in association with the laws as we live in the North and the South.
The essential truth of the matter is that in a democracy where public education is administered by the state, the schools should be "public" that is open to all children of school age without discrimination as to race, color or religion. It is the only system that builds up the citizenhip, mutual understanding and appreciation of the various points that each race contributes to the community. It is equally essential that the teachers in such a school system be appointed upon central alliances with the administration.
Since a system has been applied to the public schools of New York City for the past twenty years or more and all results have been apparent to the unreproduced observer. At times there have been instances of individual trials and tribulations in overcoming obstacles due to sporadic cases of prejudice or discrimination. But the general policy that governs the system has been to ignore the questions of race or color and treat teachers and pupils as an interpart of the system. While the system has not worked perfectly as no system depending upon the human needs and experience has been shown to have far surpassed the showers. To get the most out of any system, the teacher and the parent. And the part played by the parent is the least important element in the transaction. This element has been encouraged in the New York system by the forming of Parents' Associations, which meet at the schools at stated periods and become acquainted with the teachers and their activities.
The growing interest manifested in the school question in Philadelphia is a beneficial indication. Dr. James and his associates should keep up their visitation and they will get results. This situation in Philadelphia should convey a lesson to those individuals in Brooklyn, who are anxious to have New York State exhibition an industrial school along segregated lines.
MAKING SOLDIERS 'VIFE
DESERTERS
In the Louisville Times of April 14 these appeared an article dated at Manila, P. L. headed "A Republic. Ingratitude," describing the departure of the enlisted men of the Ninth Cavalry aboard the army transport Thomas, bound for the United States. It was alleged by the writer of this article that the sailing of the transport disclosed "an almost unparalleled exhibition of governmental heartlessness toward families and married soldiers." The facts of the case were presented as follows:
Out of southeastern enlisted men have issued on the Thomas, P. L. will aboard Filipino waves, two others who will be discharged from the army are paying $125 out of their savings for governmental transport and medical charges for each member of their families, while the remaining six will
preserve their families intact through funds advanced to them by the Red Cross and for the repayment of which they have pledged their army pay for many months to come.
The six wives who will be deserted, added to those previously abandoned by American soldiers ordered home, will make more than one hundred homes that have been wrecked as a result of the heartless policy of the government. Seventeen former members of the Ninth Cavalry, all fathers of families, now are in the Philippines, forced to remain here because they were unable to raise transport passage fares for their wives and children.
That the War Department does not give a bang how much suffering the unexpected offers entail on the North Cavalry, which has been stationed in the Philippines for many years, is shown by an investigation made by the Brigade General, Johnson Hagood, commanding Camp Schoenburg. Out of 80] enlisted men in the regiment, a total of 277 had either legal or common law wives in the Philippines, while more than 19] are the fathers of children.
In contrast with the American policy of tree transportation for the French and German wives and children of white enlisted men the government offered these colored veterans the alternative of either deserving their wives and offsprings here or transporting them to their new posts at their own expense. The cavalryman's pay is $20 a month.
Although the government might be unable to afford the expense of transporting the families of its transitional soldiers, to the United States, local officials assert that the War Department's policy could have been easily avoided by permitting the married men to remain in the islanding town, their owned terms expired.
This whole transaction, if the facts are as stated, constitutes a serious indictment of the administration of the War Department. That the United States Government should be made to figure as promoting the desertion of helpless wives and children, because the husbands and fathers are serving the country, is counter to all public policy. The officials responsible for such an abuse of humanity should be court-martialled for treason. To put the government in such a position, is the worst sort of treason.
Then there is the double crime committed against the American soldiers who were forced to desert wives and families, and the Philippines women and children, who were deprived of their natural compulsions and protection. This is the result of the war against the Philippines. This is a crime within the category of crime. There is such a hardship in the care of the commander in the triggers to make the war a criminal offence.
As was promised, the American soldiers were not thought admissible to the Philippines, the course suggested formitting the married soldiers to remain on the islands until their entitlement expired, would have allowed this brutal breaking of family ties.
Whether a come to a United Secretary, Work would do to suit the matter to the bottom. The city reopening feature attracts to be the action by the Red Cross in advancing the family to keep six of these famiies together. The government should not put the business of work at the hands of its defenders.
OTHER PEOPLE'S MONEY
The bank's books were audited by the State Banking Department who reported the shortage. When faced with the matter, the bank adopted an writing that the bank made to the Bank and had messaged to the people. It reported that the bank had messaged to the people to have borrowing. The bank reported that the bank had borrowing from the Bank and had borrowing from the Bank.
Every member of the Citizen Savings Bank, and all present I against the bank, and the banking company, was either at the time of the commencement of its department and business. The payment of the stock present in the works, upon the paper, brings to a close the issue that has attracted much attention, the fact that Mr. Kinzer was prominent in religious circles, in fraternal affairs and in religious circles. For some time he was superintendent of the St. Paul A. M. E. Sunday School and was master of one of the local Masone Lodges, and at the same time President of the Cooperative Investment Company.
One lesson to be drawn from this case is the absolute necessity of requiring all officers of books and other organizations to give charity funds for the proper handling of the funds. No matter how good the reputation of the officer as an individual, and how prominent he may be in social and religious circles, he is not immune from errors and shortages, which he may not be able to make good against. The duty of a charity company is to guard against losses to any institu-

tion from such unforeseen causes and to pay over the amount of the bond to meet any deficiency. The usual course is for the bonding company, to make good the loss, up to the amount covered by the bond, upon proof of the claim being submitted, without the necessity of entering a suit. May the surety company refused to pay in this case until so ordered by the degree of court, does not clearly appear, Having paid the claim, however, it can proceed against the individual to recover the amount of the loss paid on
The Northwestern Bulletin, published weekly at St. Paul, Minn., announced the death of its managing editor, Walter H. Cheumet, who had acted in that capacity since the paper was first issued. A signed editorial announced that the policy of the paper would remain unchanged but the last line read "Signed, Mr. Owen Howell." We have known of subtiles as "Prince," "Duke" and "Major" being used as Christian names, but never the plain "Master," nor the abbreviation. As an editorial signature it is unique.
The Texas Freeman is authority for the statement that not more than one out of twenty-five colored soldiers in Houston retained their policies under the war risk insurance act. This is but a small percentage to take advantage of the benefits offered the former service man. It would be interesting to know what the general average was throughout the country.
The matter of fact editor of the Richmond Planet finds it hard to reconcile Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's lectures on the life beyond the grave with his scheme of philosophy. In a recent issue he said.
Sir A. Conan Doyle is here to lecture on that beyond the grave. He asks that communication can be healed with people who are dead and that spirits can be brought in contact with living beings. Many believe this, but when he becomes ill, the pain can be unbearable to the mind and can be phantomized upon the dead, plates, etc. It is a stage of proving too much.
To paraphrase the words of the immortal Shakespeare, there are stranger things in heaven or in hell that are dearest to the old Dominion philosophy. We will need a brief for the genuine stories of the great photographs at that.
A lecture on the life of Conan Doyle, the leading author of the Devonport Conference at the A.M. E Chancellor noted some hopeful signs of change. Among them were
When the Negro minister begins to question the educational component of prosecutions, names are proposed and that the bishop asks in no uncertain way to the Bishop's attention that is, how many of the apprehended persons we know are now in drawing in his people's suggestion that the person with whom that had been given by their ministers, Ralph Jones roundly denounced the plight of the officers and girls for persecution. He urged them on the other hand to still protesting to demand the waging of the war against the officers and law enforcement. Sermings there was the most of them who did not seem to understand the Bishop's views, which he declared would result in greater good for the pastor and congregation.
A negative attempt has made three more means to intimidate our voters. But instead of keeping them from the life, it only stimulated interest and they voted in larger numbers than ever before. This should have been the answer of the colored voters of Miami. It is no crime to be a registered voter, not at a trump to cast a ballot. The ballot is a Godsend right approved by the laws and should not be denied any class of voters, nor should any one be intimidated from exercising this franchise. Despite dangers and threats we should the more likely to be used by quality curatives and cast a ballot when necessary.
This is the spirit of resistance to oppression and determination to forge ahead that makes the Negro a progressive race. Such a race, animated by such a spirit, cannot be kept down indefinitely.
The latest sensation in Kansas City, Mo., is the investigation of a county institution for Negro boys, which is said to have cost $10,000, on the ground that it is a "luxury." The Kansas City Call said.
The Home for Delinquent Negro Boys now much talked off, is a text. The latest effort seems directed to changing it entirely from the intended use. Upon the claim that the cost of the building is excessive, that it is luxurious rather than useful it is seriously proposed to make of it a hospital. Yet no showing is made that it is any better
his account.
This is the second case that has occurred recently, where a Negro bank has avoided loss by the foresight of its officers in securing bonds against embezzlement or burglary. The other case was a Philadelphia institution, where a bold robber seized a bundle of cash from the teller's window. The handling of other people's money demands the exercise of the utmost discretion and vigilance. All honor to those of our bankers who include these qualities in their reserve.
fitted for a hospital than for a home for delinquent boys. The reasoning is not good. We very much fear the motives are not good either.
A wideawake reporter who inspected the building and compared it with another county home for boys already in operation, showed how it failed in many respects to meet the requirements. The Negro citizens and those anxious to have the delinquent boys cared for, are advised to appeal to the county court for the opening and maintenance of this home if it can be adapted for the purpose intended.
In considering the problems arising from Southern migration the Colorado Stateman, published at Denver, said:
It is undeniably true that the coming of Negroes in large bodies from the South, must be handled carefully and with intelligence. Not only Negro from the heightened South is fitted at once for the greater liberties and larger freedom of the North. A process education, sometimes long drawn out, must be bribed. No one decipher this to northern the northern Negro hence the larger uses and activities of the Urban League, N. A. A. C. P, and other kindred organizations, that are seeking to better the housing and labor conditions of Southern laborers, while at the same time adopting every means of minimizing racial antagonism. But there is another phase of "southern exodus" that is just now offering a greater and more serious problem than possibly arise from the migration of Negroes Recently, with a community strongly suggestive, a great hate and society has arisen all over the land for separate schools, racial segregation and proscription. There is hardly a northern city of any importance that is not now being agitated over these questions. Here in Denver, where we hardly form a compartmental minority, some crazy, rapid pressure has proceeded to term our presence in this city as a menace. A young contemptible paper called The Receiver is doing its utmost to arouse rural anglomism; a number of pseudo organizations are similarly engaged and only this week sought by every foul means to keep a race representative from being appointed a member of Denver's Young Commission. So it would appear that in the increasing problems confronting us, there is not half the danger in Negroes coming from the South bent in securing work as there is in the white man coming from the South bent in tracing disturbance.
This class of professional white Southerners is not unknown in this part of the country, but individual members of it have proved amenable to the liberal and Christianizing influences of their Northern environment. Meeting members of the darker race on the neutral ground of common citizenship, they have learned to regard them as human beings and to respect them according to their deeds.
A Richmond dispatch in the Twintown Messenger of Clarksburg, West Virginia, credited Governor Trinkle of Virginia as having taken a stand against two violence when he refused a pardon in the case of A. L. Nafer. The petitioner was a prominent white resident of Wise county, sentenced to one year in the penitentiary for participating in the lynching of a 1911 of a Wise county Negro in Wise county, sentenced to two years in store prison on the charge of being an accomplice in the lynching. As this was lucky a case of the punishment fitting the crime, the Governor probably felt that these two prominent citizens were, in a literal sense, "getting away with murder."
With the coming of Spring, the Jacksonville Florida Sentinel donned a "new head dress-up," as it styles the front page title head. It said:
This new design is the conception of the president of the Publishing Company Gen. W. W. Andrews, whose idea was worked out by the Editor and put into place by the Sentinel artist.
The interpretation of this design-head is the Sentinel Superior, soaring to higher clouds, always looking upward and always moving towards the goal.
At the left bottom illustration is gain of the utility of industry and energy, while on the right is shown, a man of studious thought. This illustration heading contains a volume and our thousands of readers are asked to study and apply the lessons here given.
We trust that while the Sentinel may soar in the clouds with its head, it may still keep its feet firmly planted on the platform of service to the race.
The Baltimore Herald and Common-
teralth thinks that nothing can be gained
for the race in that city by a change of
administration from Republican to Democ-

position of being abused by certain groups of white people for doing too much for the colored people, and by色be colored people for doing too little. The white people have never forgotten the swimming pool in Druid Hill Park for colored people, they still continue to criticise him for his refusal to ratify the new scale for teachers' salary unless it provided equal pay for colored teachers; his championship of the million dollar colored high school, now in course of erection, has formed the basis of an anti-campaign document by certain white groups.

I am very glad to know from a friend of mine in San Francisco that you are engaged in the holy cause of the service of justice. Let me assure you that I am one with you in this great mission. They speak a good deal of Lord Christ and of humanity, but in fact very little Christianity or humanity is practised in our present age.
I have given out two universal schemes of religion and political reorganization. I have called them (1) The religion of love; and (2) Happiness party. They are supposed to be strong and strict organizations, but besides all organizations, it is all-important to work individually for the great ideal.
I am against every sectional combination, such as of the whites and blacks against one another. Then is dangerous and harmful. I want that we may stand on truth, justice and love, and that we may show so much force may cow down before our spirit self sacrifice and devotion that the evil From this standpoint: I beg you that you may take an oath to abstain from all kinds of injuries and take a vow, as Mahamum Gandhi a fledgling nuttle, to clothe which your womens may wear at home in their leisure. And in no case use those unnecessary things which are burdens on your nurse.
Please also know that you have many nice friends in Japan, China, India, Afghanistan, Turkey and Egypt and I believe in many other countries, such as Russia, Italy and France, you may also find good sympathizers. You need only come out and see the world. Every penny which you save from luxury you can very profitably spend in gavelling. I shall be very glad to exchange views with any of my human brothers who feel like me the necessity to unite all the socialized races into one common human family.
People who want to establish some permanent connection with some such men who think in this direction can kindly write to Prem Mahayudala, Bindhanath (Murree), India. This is a free technical college and there are always some sacrificing students. By the by I will suggest that if your friends could get some students from this college to complete their course in america on the basis that they will work in the United States they will work for your cause. That will be an important practical step. These students will be heart and soul with your cause and at the same time being neutrals can better serve you.
Nowadays many shortsighted or selfish teachers teach us not to care for our neighbors, they preach an ignorant, narrow nationalism or clannish sentiment. However our world is now completely united; we can no longer stand aloof.

No Color Line at Harvard.
(From Jersey City, N. J.) Journal.
The Overseers of Harvard have voted to maintain the University's traditional freedom from racial and religious discrimination. Particularly, this means that colored students will be permitted to room in the freshman dormitories, though several months ago President Lowell wrote a Negro graduate that this graduate's son, preparing for Harvard, could not hope to room in these dormitories because of his color. That letter kicked up a storm that made it necessary for the Overseers to take public action.
It was more or less of a forgone conclusion that President Lowell's ruling would have to go overboard. It was out of keeping with the modern spirit of trying to settle a question away from the distemper of prejudice. The Negro, numerically strong, is in America to stay. Whatever problems his presence in this country occasion must be met with the knowledge that he is a national factor and that this status has national significance. Making rules that ignore these things is merely the form of a nine-day gesture. A generation ago a Negro in the colleges was something of a nine-day wonder. Now he is seeking higher education by the hundreds, and thousands of colored boys and girls are in the high schools. Ten years from now, or fifteen, Negro enrollment in the colleges and universities will have increased to a proportion that no man now, probably, can forge.
The Negro problem, from the standpoint of thoughtful consideration, is coming into its own. This is shown by the literary trend. Not so long ago, the Negro in literature was the traditional, ignorant, lovable, superstitious character of a Joel Chandler Harris, or the traditionally faithful, ox-like, idealized character of a George W. Cable. But today the Negro is looking life in the face and asking, Why? Three novels, published within two years, have all dealt seriously with the Negro, not as emotional fiction material, but as the authors have conceived him to be. The first of these was T. S. Stribling's "Birthright," and a reading of it shows how far we have come along the road of camel thought. It is an encouraging sign—and the Negro problem in America is one of the national matters that has been badly in need of encouraging stasis.

Revival of Slave Trade in Africa
(From the New York Herald)
Recent investigations show that trade in slaves has been revived in Africa to such an extent as to be a major concern to European countries having African countries as a base.
Experience has been collected that the native villages in the of Africa are being raided. Africa is the human beast annually sold to slavery and the runners are carried in the between African ports and Africa. Persian ports under the musket of France and Great Britain.
The results of these investigations will be something of a surprise world, for at the beginning of the tent century it was informed that raiding and trading were thing past. The European Powers, perted, had such a complete control the seas as to make the smuggling slaves out of Africa impossible.
The early attempts to suppress slave traffic inside the continent of Africa were brought about by the efforts of civilization at conditions as listed in Africa in the middle of the twelfth century. The reports of riders of the African slave trade, such renowned explorers as Isaac Stanley and Rafles opened the world to the magnitude of the fire. There was scarcely a slave in Congo region which escaped and according to these circumstances were often thousands of these raids in the slave garrisons in bakti.
The Bomba region around Ita was almost depopulated by Aden and many of the village inhabitants African coast from Morocco the Gulf of Aden were plied ablebeded men and women. In the Negroes were forwarded to the of Zanibar or Madagascar west they were sent in gangs butu to northern Morocco and interior Africa they were marched the Libyan desert to the Tripoli Rohles said that the Libyan dwellers was clearly marked by the browns of slaves who perished frightful journey to the coast.

The fact that the vigilant ropean Powers in repressing trade in the Persian Gulf and Ocean has since been relied on the beginning of the World War counts in a measure for the trade trade. The traders receive man cargoes at Red Sea or Indian ports from raiders who obtain tims in the interior of Africa. If the traders' can land there on the Arabian or Persian coast are certain of a good profit. They more for them in slave trading than anything else. Native officials aften find the traffic profitable. The report that a Sultan of French land got a fee of a dollar for every shipped from the port which he trollled.
The chief difficulty in the suppression of the slave trade has always been that it is a source of profit not only to the Arab traders but to the native man. Many of the early enemies of the slave trade declare that the only effective method of suppression is the development of legitimate trade in Africa. This is the position which the European powers have taken in recent years, but this condition can be brought about are likely to find that the old force is necessary if the trade is stopped.

PULLMAN PORTER NEWS
By JAMES H. MBOANG
A Pullman porter who lives in New York and runs out of Weehawken district, but whose name for certain reasons we shall not mention, arrived home from California last Thursday a much poorer, if not wiser man than he was when he left several months ago. Leaving Los Angeles with more fortune than caution, this porter started his journey East in aristocratic style; his transportation called for a lower berth as far as Chicago; his travelling suit was of the latest cut; his recently acquired bag was of a well-known shape; his new spring overcoat bung with that style and grace which would have caused the Berry Walla of Legon avenue to turn green with envy and they seen it. In fact, prosperity and class seemed to have radiated about him the same as the sun when it reaches its meridian in August.
But one little detail he overlooked, or rather forgot, (and herein is where he fell a little behind in class) that is his reading matter, which finally turned out to be a calamity. After getting settled comfortably, musing over the scenery and no doubt thinking to himself that this is the life, he remembered that reading was habitual with the high-brows. When the newboy came along he scanned his wares. After deciding what he wanted, he discovered he had no loose change (another error-class rarely makes). So down he goes, draws out his bank roll, which contained $300, and paid the boy therefrom. Reseating himself with that contentment of being at peace with the world, the flesh and the devil, he began reading. Now occupying the same section as our friend was another passenger (white) who had all the appearance of gentility and wealth, only he had the upper berth which according to custom and rule necessitated his riding backward.
This he did until our friend flashed hiswad. Then riding that way became very tireome, so much so, that he continuously inquired if he might ride he side him, adding that riding backward was very uncomfortable, to say the least. Being of an obliging disposition our friend readily consented. Leaving Omala, the dining car steward came through, announcing the "last call." Our friend decided he would test out his appetite which he did to the amount of $151. On reaching in his pocket for what had been, he found what was, two thin dimes, the change from the purchased magazines. His suave fellow traveller was nowhere to be found. He was a professional pick-pocket.
It might be noted here, our friend kept his marve and his poise with him; he did not attempt to borrow from the other porters, as he easily could have done—had they known his predicament. We do not know how he appeased the dining car department. Suffice it to say, he arrived at Chicago with the two thin dimes and his railroad transportation marked New York. Of course, there was no car deluxe from then on, it was a case of riding the day coach. In addition to his financial till' tuck, in changing trains at Albany, he got on a Boston train by mistake. This train is not scheduled to stop until it arrives in Pittsfield. That is where we picked him up that afternoon. He still had the prosperous appearance but that was all—the two thin dimes had edged away to nothing. There is no moral, lesson or warning, we can draw from our friend's experience; it's purely a case of getting robbed—but we cannot help thinking, "The fruits of pretension are embarrassments."
St. Cyprian's Eighteenth Annual Church Reunion
St. Cyprian's annual reunion is scheduled for Tuesday night, May 1, at the New Renaissance Castle, 138th street and Seventh avenue. The response of the members seems larger this year than ever before. The entertainment for the evening will include a short program beginning at 8:30 sharp; supper will be served; and dancing to music will be supplied by the Tempo Orchestra, Inc. William H. Dover, leader. All the boxes, have been sold, but a few logs remain on sale at the Parish House. It is expected that all Saint Cyprian's friends and members, both downtown and uptown, will gather at the Renaissance for this celebration. Included in the talent that will appear are Carlton Boxill, tenor; Vivian Barber, juvenile dansense; Helen Dowdy, songs; Minto A Cato, soprano; Arthur Redding, violinist; Meryll Carter, songs; Frederick Hogan, dramatic selections, and a choral of fifty voices led by Mrs. Elizabeth H. Loguen.
"The Social Pathway."
A new organization with Fred Moore as president, is planning to better conditions in harmless, socially and morally positive ways and every man and woman who has vision enough to see the need of doing something to develop right attitudes in the young people and build up the skills and progress rapidly, should join this organization.

LOAD OFF JACK'S MIND
When Jack Johnson, the former heavyweight champion of the world, was reminded by court attaches and policemen, on his arrival at Traffic Court, Wednesday of last week that offenders against the traffic ordinances who had appeared, as frequently as he has were generally given workhouse sentences ranging from fifteen days upward, the pugilist, thoroughly scared, began to bewil his fate, as he saw visions of a $10,000 guarantee for a forthcoming fight in Havana with "Farmer" Lodge being lost to him.
Mr. Johnson was in court in answer to a summons given to him on Tuesday, by a motorcycle patrolman, and the charge against him was failing to keep to the right at 59th street and Central Park West, while driving his $10,000 car porth.
Johnson's mental distress was quickly relieved by Magistrate Norman J. Marsh, who heard his case and his story of the forthcoming fight. The magistrate, after hearing Johnson's excuse for turning the wrong way, being that of saving a new mudguard from being scratched, and calling it reasonable, fined the pugilist $2.
Johnson left the court room smiling, but stopped long enough to good-naturedly chide the policemen and court attaches for giving him an unhappy half-hour.
AT THE NEW DOUGLAS THEATRE
H. A. Snow's "Hunting Big Game in Africa" is coming to the New-boulogne Theatre on Sunday, Monday and Tuesday, direct from its exositional pool at the Lyric Theatre, Broadway. This is the first time these films have been shown in Harlem.
"Hunting Big Game in Africa" was two years in the making. Unfold privately were encurred by the hard business of cameramen in their efforts to bring to the screen Africa's wildest habitats, and the lines of the fastest and most denses of jungle trees and rivers. Two cameramen were killed during the shoot, and the order to get the most realistic scenes, traps were set so that lions, tigers, jaguars, leopards, elephants, and snakes were brought to earth within a few feet of the embracing walls.

Cedarhurst and Port
Chester Are Beaten
By Lincoln Giants
Before a crowd of 5000 people, the Lincoln Giants defeated two teams at Protection Oval on Sunday, April 22. In the opening game against the Cedarhurst nine, the colored champs had a walkaway, winning by a score of 12-4.
Joe Williams and "Doc" Wiley was the battery for the Lincoln. An unfortunate accident occurred in the latter part of this game, when "Judy" Gaus apraised his antle sliding to second. He had to be carried from the field, and will probably be out of the lineup for several weeks.
The second game of the series was the best that has been played on these grounds this season. The opposing team, Portchester, had as its pitcher, Warhop, formerly with the New York Yankees, and it was expected that he would shut his opponents out. It became evident that the Lincoln would not be shut out before the game had hardly begun, for the first man up made a hit, and before the inning was over a total of seven hits had been scored, including a home run by Thomas, his second this season. After the first inning, the local team was unable to score again until the fourth, when they scored two more runs. Portchester scored two in the third, two in the fourth, and in a batting rally in the ninth scored two more. The final score of the game was 7-6 Holland and Gee, both new members of the Lincoln, was the battery in the second game.
Athletic Notes From Howard University
Washington D. C—The varsity baseball team is back home from a sojourn in the state of Virginia where the played a number of the best collegiate teams in that state. One game was won, one tied, and four lost. The first home game was played on the campus Friday, April 20 with Sterling College. The late Fraternity field and track meet was held on the campus Saturday afternoon, April 21. A very good demonstration was shown concerning the material that is to represent the blue and white at the Penn Relay Carnival. Nichols, Kraft, Wundan, Jenkins, and Robinson made a good showing in the 220 and 106-yard dashes, and in the relays. Young and Anderson made creditable showings in the hammer and discuss events. Entry blanks have already gone out for the annual Howard meet on May
The Howard University Tennis Tournament announced for April 28-May 5, arriving great interest in the cast letters will be awarded to six men and four women and cups will go to the single and double winners. The finals will be played on the University Courts, May 5 at 2 o'clock. Among the special features of the tournament will be the presentation in all probability of Dick Merrill, the New York champion, and the favorite Dr. B. M Rheaft of Baltimore. The James Burne Company of Boston has awarded a cup for the events. The Wakefield Athletic House and Sport Mart of Washington have also awarded cuts.
The Department Physical Education of the university has come under the jurisdiction and authority of L. L. Watson, former coach of Virginia N. & L. L. and graduate of Howard and Springfield Y College. He has six tennis classes, three boxing classes and the major sports, a varsity baseball and track quad.

How To Treat
Medical authorities state that nearly nine-tenth of the cases of stomach trouble, indigestion, sourness, burning, gas, bloating, nausea, etc., are du eto an excess of hydrochloric acid in the stomach and not as some believe to a lack of digestive juices. The delicate stomach lining in irritated, digestion is delayed and food pours, causing the disagreeable symptoms which every stomach sufferer knows so well
Artificial digestents are not needed in such cases and may do real harm. Try lying aside all digestive aids and instead get from any druggist a few ounces of Bilirated Magnesia and take a teaspoonful in a quarter glass of water right after eating. This sweetens the stomach, prevents the formation of excess acid and there is no sourness, gas or pain. Bilirated Magnesia (in powder or tablet form—never liquid or milk), is harmless to the stomach, inexpensive to take and is the most efficient form of magnesia for stomach purposes. It is used by thousands of people who enjoy their meals with no more fear of indigestion.

But satisfactory and encouraging as this is it is but an imperfect measure of Dr. Washington's work and achievement.

Coates and Dunbar In Piano-Clarinet Recital
A musical event somewhat out of the ordinary was the joint recital on Monday night, April 23 at Renaissance Casino, 185th street and J. Seventh avenue by Eldwin Coutts, pianist, and W. Rudolph Dunbar, clarinetist, presented by Dr J Davis James. The unusual element was supplied by the fact that few clarinetists give thought to the classic forms of musical expression, at least so far as the concert stage is concerned.
Mr. Dumais came before his audience as a pioneer in his particular field as I do not recall a similar appearance during the ten years of my activity in New York musical circles. He deserves credit for the attempt, and all the more so since he has a well-developed equipment. He possesses considerable technical facilities, and to this is added the ability to produce a tone which is pleasing most of the time. Occasionally his impetuosity leads him to stretch his technical skills and breathing capacity almost to the breaking point, resulting in a thump of tone at the back of an accuracy in fingering. But this did not happen with any considerable frequency. There was inability to the score and an interpretation that indicated breakout or complications. This was especially true in the Mozart Langhetti from a Classical Quartet with whom Mr. Dumais served his program in a Seminar at New York University in the Montmartre, and in a study of little Vienna to Laborte.

I have been in the business of doing things for a long time, and I have always been interested in the subject. During the last one year, I was the only person in the world who was not asked to play the piano. But after a few years, I had paraded in with a few friends, and the notice or two came along a few times, the notice evidently thought it was important to be so strict. And so during the latter part of the program days, were being seated, and various parties of apparent congenuine were going here and there to the decided learning at an enjoyment of the music.
Another obtrusive feature, claimed by the promoters of the affair on the Casino management was that while the concert was billed for 8,300 those who came at that hour found the ball not open and were given the information that the management would not permit the ball to be taken until 9:30 even for a concert, and so there was an uncomfortable ball hour of waiting in the lobby, and the no additional wait of more than a half hour in the concert hall.
Miss Andrea's Lindsey was the accompaniment for Mr. Dibbar and she played with her usual thorough efficiency.

Rochester, N. Y.-Howard A. Lee, a senior in the East High School here, is being eulogized by his fellow schoolmates as the fastest basketball player in the state. He is a member and captain of the Varsity basketball team, as well as one of the best all-round athletes in the school of Rochester. He has made good in swimming, wrestling, baseball and soccer, and curing the past winter took three ribbons in the skating contest of the schools.
The Clarion, the student publication of the East High School, gave the following sketch of Captain Lee in a recent issue:
"Captain Howie Lee has completed one of the most enviable careers in the history of scholastic sports. Lee is considered the fastest basketball player on the state. It would be doing him a great injustice if it were said in these columns that his tame was local or state-wide, for he is known throughout the basketball world as the "Pride of East High." This is the last season "Rootbeer" will be seen in the Purple and White aggregations and his absence from the team will cause a vacancy which will be hard for Coach Fowle to fill. Lee takes his place among the great East High athletes."
week, in Orange, Jersey City, Montclair and Newark. In the four evening, a total audience of forty-five hundred persons were reached, with the Jersey City concert bringing the largest crowd. Sixteen hundred appreciative discerners crowded the beautiful Lincoln High School auditorium of that city and brought back the singers time and time again with demands for excerpts. In every case the audience of this year exceeded that of past years.
Critical judgment declared this year's program to surpass the standard set by last year's performance: "Besides, the old favorites, Helen Serby and the Male Quartet, Charles Kershaw made an impression as a tenor solist. George Dosher, bass, showed marked improvement in his work and was called back for encores. The Glee Club showed up best, of course, in the Negro Spirals of which its repertoire main's consists, but the Walka Song from Faust bore testimony to the fact that Mr. Work has trained the youngsters under his care to a point where he need not hesitate to give them any type of music to render." The boys' band, under Mr. Grinnell, seemed to please the audience and in every way maintained the standard set by bands of past years.
Orangeburg Schools Hear Hazel Harrison and Peyton
A note from Cias J. Harn of the State N and M College faculty, Omaha burg, S. C. jella me that Orangeloing will have recently had opportunity to hear the race's premier pitmaster Hustel Harrison of Chicago, and a promising young violist, Wm. S. Peston on the music department at Dame College, Augusta, Ga. Mr. Peston appeared at State College on April 10 and Mrs. Harrison was at Cainin on the 19th. Mr. Peston, a violinist, was supported by William S. Lawrence, organist, M. Lieta A. Harris, organist, and Charles L. Harrison, sender.
In writing of the two recitals, Mr. Harris said: "This was the second one of Miss Harrison to these parts. She fully sustained her reputation as a perb concert pianist. Her tone is full and altogether satisfying. The adequateness of her technique leaves not a sense of labor in anything she does. We hope she will visit us often. As a violinist, Mr. Peyton stands well in the front ranks; his tone is big and luscious. At times you will imagine listening to a cello when he plays anything on the G string. His technique meets every demand for the varying moods of his numbers."

HOSPITAL FOR RACE AT GREENSBORO IS BOOSTED IN MEETING
Campaign to Raise Funds in Begun with Enthusiastic Promises of Cooperation.
ONE FIRM GIVES $1,000
Pres. C. H. Moore Says Six of Each Race Will Serve on Board of Trustees.
Greenbush, N. C.—Negro leader of
Greenbush carried their campaign for
hospital with a roaring mass moaning
at the Grand Theatre Sunday af-
ternoon. April 11, 1915. People
perons and hundreds and
hundreds of colored citizens.
Charles Satchell Morris, Jr. of Near-
Va. spoke, giving full credit to
collected persons for starting the
movement.
Pledge cards were passed out for the hospital and the campaign will be held vigorously among persons of all races. President James B. Dudley announced that C. H. Ireland, for his wife had given $1,000 to the cause. Mrs. H. Moore, president of the hospital association, who presided over the meeting, announced also that the institution would be given by 12 nurses, six with Negroas. Dr. Aram Jarbore, a local white nurse, gave a short talk, emphasizing the need for a Negro hospital. Negro hospital facilities have not yet pace with the growth of the city other respects," he said. He paid utility to Trinity hospital's work and specializes to the Negro doctors and nurses, because of whom, he said, need never be fear that the new institution will not be well managed. "We have watched your physician and surgeon," he said, and nowhere do I know more infectious men. I guess you put your shoulders to the local and continue the work you are instructing."
Dr. Charles C. Stewart brieved recently the history of attacks for a regent hospital in the city, from the infamous house on McCallough grove to the organization. August 8, 1919, of present Trinity hospital with 12 beds. Since then 300 patients have been treated there, 290 surgical, medical and 27 obstetrical. In hospital always full, but and only partly have been turned away. There are before the city extended his limits, he said, "and certainly there is more need now."
C. S. Morris, Jr., pleaded correctly for support for the hospital. He urged initiative among Negroes, urged them to help themselves, urged them to show the whites what they could do. He saw in the institution a movement to Negro genius and leadership - Black America and white America - know each other, any of the white race can be to think of bigness as all the courts and to instink asythem patterns of Negro culture.
The subject of the address was "The Iour Has Come". He thought the hour had come for the soldier-citizen who man who worked to make himself helping part of the community the hour had come for the industrial and industrial opportunistically with its frequent necessity for economic independence; the hour had come for practical Christianity; the hour had come for practical education. "I be love that unless the Negro wants to do something, he will never get white." No, he will not. "The Negro can love God and said the 'Negro can love God and said the 'Negro can love God and hate the white man; they can best be brought together on good terms through their love of Christ." Some fine music was furnished by classes from A. and T. and Bennett Greens and a solo by Dr. J. C. Wad-

Mother Zion Church was filled by an uncompromised large audience at the 11 o'clock service Sunday morning, April 22. The burning need of a new and larger church is being unmistakably demonstrated each Subbath, when people came and here to leave for look of room. The opening service war of a unique and interesting order. The chair rendered excellent mople. An appropriate musical accompaniment, "The Prodigal Son," was rendered by Mrs. Thomas, soprano, of Union Baptist Church, and pianist at the organ by Mine C. R. Williams, organist of Mother Zion Sunday school.
The sermon was delivered by the Dr. Brown. His subject was "Where are they Mind?" His theme was "Gratitude." Dr. Brown explained that the text originated from the scripture that tells about the cleaning of the ten legions. He spoke of leprosy and its many hideous aspects. He referred to the marginality of the leprosy-good people and to the insignificance of that mention the Immaculate returned to thank the Master for caring him, thereby showing his gratitude. He compared leprosy to sin which has afflicted all mankind and would have accomplished all mankind's ultimate destruction had it not been for the redemptive power of Christ that cleansed from all sin. In this discourse, the speaker planned that the spirit of gratitude, which is thankfulness, all the hearts and all for the leprosy-good people which we receive from God by it. He inspired and was helped, spiritual inspiration and was much enjoyed by all present. At its conclusion there were many accolades to the church.

First Emmanuel Church.
At both the morning and evening services, Pastor Bolden preached very forceful and impressively sermons, in the morning he preached from Philippians 3:10, 11. "That I may know Him and the power of His Resurrection, and the fellowship of His sufferings, being made comfortable unto His death; if by any means I might attain unto the resurrection of the dead."
Paper Holden said: "The confusion in the world and the tribalization through which the people are are in due to the lack of understanding. If men understand each other in their family relations and if various classes, groups, races and nations put forth a determined effort to understand another and to know the who, what, why, and will of the people they confronted. It is apalpable to behold the calamities results of misunderstanding. Our Lord the Emmanuel will open the understanding of those who believe in an仰拜 Him, so that they may be great in the social being, but they will be made able to know of His resurrection."
The idea power manifests itself in various ways in human society, and there are certain definite things that human beings regard as contributing to and developing power. In the sense world the outstanding things are economic and political control of countries and races. In his largest sense is in coming to the front of the scene in propagating development, as the largest factor in promoting sustaining, maintaining and developing power. The various modes of thinking and the various members of expressing the power intellectually do not satisfy the needs of the impatient student, who thinks about the reality of being and thinking. The Apollo Paul counselled human endeavour and the highest bottom of the time as valuing and affection, when he was valuing and affection, and ensuring the power of the repressive body. He said to the young man in the hospital:
wrapping, and the fellowship of His sufferings, being made conducible unto His death; if by any means I mean unto the reservation of the dead.
This guidance on the part of believers today will, transgress them, and will transform the nation and the earth. Hence may there arise among us daily increasing numbers of believers who will continually endeavor to know the power of the Lord. The expiator, the teacher, the parsoness will not only make known the sources and processes of this power, but he will enable believers to demonstrate the power of our Lord's resurrection realizing eternal life.
The Sunday-school was opened at 2:20.
The children were instructed to
sit, bowing, squirting.
Miss Maggie Johnson had charge of the Library Society program as follow: piano solo, Miss Elizabeth Fraser; short talk were given by Miss M. Johnson, Mrs. H. Caldwell, Mrs. B. Mc. Johnson, Mrs. A. H. Barnes, Mrs. piano solo, Miss Dorothy J. Small.
The regular evening services opened at 8 o'clock. Pastor Baldwin presided from St. Luke 24th, the latter part of the verge. Then opened he their understanding that they might understand the scriptures" Dr. Baldwin's theme was that after Christ opened their understanding, then He revealed the scriptures to them.
This dinner was served during the day by the members of the Playhouse Circle and $8 was given to them the church. At the close of the dinner Mrs. Road, from Africa, gave an interesting and instructive talk on her trip to Africa. She spoke mainly on the country of Liberia of which she is deeply interested in.
The choir rendered splendid music at both services.
St. Lukes Episcopal Mission
Sunday was a beautiful, clear and balmy day and the people turned out in large numbers to worship. St. Luke's Mission was packed. People came in through the basement and set on the steps through the entire service. Everything went off with splendid union. The choir marched singing as St. Luke's choir can sing. The ushers were compelled to make pathway so dense was the crowd. All eager and reverent. The early celebration was at 8 a.m. At morning prayer the Rev. Scott Wood, vicar, preached a forceful and helpful sermon, full of fervor. Dr. Wood spoke from Philippians chapter 3 verse: "I am learned in heaven I am thereward to be content." He said to be content with such things as we have is the hardest and greatest lesson we have to learn. St. Paul, the author of this epistle to the Philippians was a very learned man; mighty in the scriptures; brought up at the feet of Gamaliel, but he did not from the sorrow he felt from the elders, but the hard old school of experience. He needed a new schoolmaster, and a different school when he was on the road to Damascus. He heard a voice saying "Saul, Saul, why persecuted us? The Jesus Christ became all man life his school. He learned many hard lessons at Lytra, on the temperatures and, in prison, in the stocks and hands, but he learned them all, and so attained to the highest of all knowledge. Happy are we if we learn this lesson. Many learned, wealthy and powerful men, we have learned him his school. He learned many beautiful days, this heaven-born beauty day, are mourning simply because they have not learned the simple lesson of Contenment. You may sail the pass over in palatial yachts, unless we go the school of experience and learn the lesson of Contenment. Our Christianity is but a name; our Christianity is not a name; our Merriming lips, friends, cannot sing the praises of the Lamb. A discontented heart cannot send for thanksgiving. You may master a trade without the aid of a teacher but if you want to learn how to live a happy and contented life, you must have Jesus Christ as your teacher. Someone has been prepared for all evil. The personal reference, but allow me to say that from experience I know that a contented man can pass through the fire of affliction, and escape the burning; through seas of trouble and the waves shall not go over his soul. Surely, I contenient ones all will be burdened, solves in all and makes all right all reason is no excuse for true Christians to be discontented. We live by God's mercy. So therefore let us all learn to be content with that place in life it may please God to place us.

Rev. Payne will deliver his farewell sermon as assistant pastor next Sunday evening.
During the past week we had with us Dr. J. C. Jackson of Hartford, County president of the New England Missionary Baptist Convention. It was a real treat for our church to invite Jackson with us and the occasion was to begin the beginning as it would have been since services have been going on so long. We have been having continuous services, since two weeks before Easter. President Jackson gave us wholesome servants each evening and the climate was perfect, he gave us "Earkiel's Experience". He is indeed a wonderful preacher.
On Sunday at 11 o'clock, a.m. the choir, under the direction of Prof. Calhoun, was out in full. It was an ideal day for church goers. Pastor Sime was at his best, and gave us a very interesting sermon on the "Three Beacon Lights." Sermon was enjoyed by all who heard it.

BODY OF DEVIL MORGON,
MISSING SINCE NO. 25,
FOOD IN HALEM INTERN
The body of Benjamin Dobson, 29, who lived with his sister in the Rangley Court, 2840. Seven avenue, 2840. Thursday morning, January 25, after leaving home to go to work at the Madison Square postoffice, where he was a United States mail clerk, was found on Saturday, at Harlem River, at foot of 137th street.
Mrs. Elizabeth Woodard, the sister, discovered that Dobson had been seen in an irresponsible condition at a Stratford house. He was brought to Harlem by a boy who delivered ice in the downtown neighborhood. This boy testified that he brought Dobson to the lobby of the Rangelands Hotel, where he lived after that, so far as has been learned.
The condition of the body made it impossible to determine whether foul play had been committed or not, but the thought this is possible is the probability that a wandered away from the Raneyce Court and in some way wandered to the riverside, which is only three or four blocks away from Seventh avenue and 157th street.

ELECTS TRUSTEES,
RETIRES CHAIRMAN
Frank Ray Reelected, But McArthur and Johnson Are Supplanted.
On Thursday evening, April 19, the membership of Fleet Street Memorial A. M. E. Zion Church, Bridge street, Brooklyn, the Rev. W. C. Brown, pastor, held its annual election of trustees. Three were chosen, the only old officer winning a reelection being Frank A. Ray, who has served for several terms. Brooklyn is also superintendent of the Sunday-school.
The outstanding feature of the election was the retirement of Thomas H. McArthur, who has served as chairman of the board for several years, being chosen to succeed the late Ward-dell, who held that position at time of his death in 1917. Mr. McArthur will confine his activities to the leadership of a class, the 125 women of Calhon Johnson, who becomes a member of the steward board.
The two new members of the trustee board are James Darden and Walter Fulcher, active and influential members of Fleet Street Church, who have been honored as supporters of Dr. Benton in his efforts to develop a bigger and better church.
First St. A.M.E.Z. Church
The story of "The Transformation of a boy of great interest and import to the true Christian and usually licensed to with proficient interest.
It appeared Sunday morning, as the Rev. W. C. Brown, pastor, spoken from that text, using as a theme, "Dear supreme experience, with any previous disguise heard on the subject. His outlines included what Peter might have seen—Peter could have seen only Moses; the Law, as represented by Moses; he might have seen Elijah only; he might have seen Jesus, for disobedience, or Riis, as in the preparatory state; but instead, Peter saw Jesus, in Whose all things had their divine fulfillment.
Dr. Brown likened this experience with today's Christianity, some setting the law only, while others are contamining in present practice the rest of the religious resources to the other religions, of the world; the speaker said that there were great and good things in them all, and that all wishers saw their Great Head; that the Mohammedans saw Mohamed; that the Christian Scientist saw Buddha Gautam; but the Christian should see Jesus. This sermon will be remembered as one of the outstanding gems of Dr. Brown's ministry, his thoughtful resource, his inexhaustible energy and his dynamic force of understanding. At J o'clock, Dr. Brown, accompanied by the choice woman, M. E. Z Church, West 138th street, Manhattan, Rev. G. M. Oliver, pastor.
At the evening service, Dr. Brown's theme was "Seeking rest from the oppressor." Like that of the morning, he spoke to a congregation that was fully appreciative of the truths he expounded. During the day, ten persons united with the church. On Friday night, April 27, Dr. Brown and congregation will worship with the Rev. Trotter White and church. Large preparations are are made for the entertainment of the New York annual church in June. The church is being renovated a and put in condition, torg from all sections of the country Candidates for the bishopric and visit are expected.

"And he said, take now thy son, thine only son is Isaac, whom thou lowest, and get thee into the land of Egypt, and offer thee a burst offering upon one of the mountains which I will tell thee of." (Genesis 22:2). This was the test to be made of Abraham's faith and obedience, and he was beautifully illustrated by Rev. George Shippen Stark at the 11 o'clock service Sunday morning.
