Mr Weston, it is alleged, cooled toward Maree Garvey after his imprisonment and has written him only once in about eight months. He is also charged with becoming less active in the affairs of the local in recent months. For this reason it was decided that a more enthusiastic man he put at the head of the New York local. Both Weston and Brown were characterized as publicity seekers by Dr. Peters. He said that Mr. Weston had been brought from Cleveland to become president of the New York local to succeed Mr Carter and if Mr Weston could he brought in from outside, he didn't see why he should not be permitted to do likewise.

COLORED REPUBLICAN COMMITTEEMEN WIN OVER LEADER CONKLIN'S POSITION IN FIGHT FOR DUAL LEADERSHIP, 21st A. D. Conklin Retains Party Leadership In 21st A.D.After Hard Fight By Those Who Fought For Race Recognition An echo of the final for dual leadership among the Republicans of the 21st Assembly District last spring was heard in the recent Primary election. At the instigation of District Leader Robert S. Cunningham, it is alleged the names of several kolloch members of the County Committee were removed from the ballot (through legal processes) and other names submitted. The names removed included those of Charles W. Be. Mitchell, associate leader of the district, and William A. Corcini and Matthew J. Travis,inders in Iowa, and Robert A. Browne,in Iowa,again to that of the white leader. These men, whose names had been removed, got busy and had sample ballots printed and instructed voters in their district districts how to write the name of their choice on the ballot without voicing it. So successful were they in their efforts that all those whose names were ordered removed from the district In the election district in which William A. Cornelius was running, 88 voters wrote his name on their ballots with Dissatisfaction which has been growing among colored voters in the 21st A. D. because of alleged indifference shown to their interests by the Republican district leader, Robert S. Conklin, culminated on Tuesday evening, September 22, in a strong and determined effort to defeat Conklin for reelection as leader, and to name harles B. Mitchell, associate leader in his district. The election of an executive member of the County Committee, which carries the leadership, was held at the Manhattan Republican Club, 139th street and Broadway, and County Chair Koenig has sent up Chairman Tuttle of the general advisory committee to preside. Conklin has been leader of the 21st for the past five years, with Mitchell his associate during the past two years, but for the last year, Conklin, it is charged, practically refused to accord any recognition to Mitchell. As a result of discontent, and at the Tuesday night gathering, the colored leader was named to oppose Conklin for the executive position. Strong Opposition Developed A lengthy and fervid discussion ensued, and the opposition to Conklin showed so strong a front, that it is reported that the Conklin forces delayed matters long enough to allow them to rush Conklin recruits to the military. One of the developments of the meeting that had a peculiar aspect was the attitude taken by former Alderman George W. Harris, who had been repeatedly turned down both by Conklin and by John Clifford Hawkins, former Assemblman, who is looked upon as Conklin's man Friar. He also gave a strong speech in favor of Conklin. "It was pointed out by those familiar with conditions that Harris has been most vociferous in his stand for Negro leadership, and he has consistently fought Conklin, questioning the leader's loyalty to the Negro voters. But on this occasion, Mr Harris surprised the delegates by his words of encouragement and great respect for Leader Conklin, who he characterized as a great leader, loyal and deserving. Made Meeting Chilly It is said that even Lawyer Hawking had to smile at the bushmanism displayed by the erstwhile opposer and critic of the Conklin administration. In the course of his remarks, Mr. Hawkins made reference to some of the party leaders as "Knee-Bending, Handkerchief Head Negroes," and it is declared that he will be called upon to explain the meaning of this term. There was a decided chill given the atmosphere of the meeting by the Handkerchief Head, as said, and the report comes that the air grew so chilly the chairman had to put on an overcoat. The Mitchell forces developed unexpected strength, and although Conklin was reeled out by a vote of 87 to 49, the opinion is expressed that of those Negroes who have been erging loudest for race leadership in out wolding them and he was reelected by an overwhelming majority. All candidates, in favor of the dual leadership won at a ratio of 4 to 1. John Clifford Hawkinson, former Assemblyman, and former associate leader of the district, who sided with Leader Conklin in the fight, had a narrow, escape from defeat in his election district, winning by a majority of only seven objections. W. Harris, Richard Warner, and other sympathizers with the Robert S. Conklin leadership, also had narrow escapes it is said from defeat to membership on the county committee. The feat performed by voters who wrote in the names of their candidates without voiding their ballots is said to be nuparalleled in the history of New York politics and amazed the white district leaders. The winning committee men, most of whom are members of the Appomattox Republican club, are jubilant over their victory. Under the leadership of Charles W. B. Mitchell, they have 55 of the 102 colored members of the county committee. By Leadership In and Fight By These For Race Recognition the 21st had been present the result would have been different. Made Fight For Principle Speaking of the fight made by the Mitchell forces, most of whom are from the Appomattox Republican Club, one of his supporters said: "Mitchell made a brave, square fight for principle. It is the desire of the Mitchell supporters to have proper recognition accorded the race group, and to overcome the lack of faith and loyalty which has recently characterized the attitude of Leader Conklin and those who support him. It is charged with the belief that the Confederate has his desire to build up a strong Republican organization in the 21st A D. Considerable comment was caused by the absence of the Republican nominees, Assemblyman Pone B. Billips and Theodore B. Smith, candidate for the Alderman Board. It was suggested that they might have had some previous engagement. What is suggested as an unfortunate development is the probability that Leader Conklin and his leutenants would bring harmony to party activities or to satisfy the voters of their good faith. Boy On Bicycle Has Collision With Trolley. Henry Saunders, a 14-year old boy, of 217 West 144th street, had a narrow escape with his life Sunday afternoon, when he rode into a street car on his bicycle at Eighth avenue and 145th street. The nature of the boy's injury, evidently slight was not known because he refused medical aid offered by the authorities. The boy was riding South in Eighth avenue, and the street car was crossing, east in 145th street. No arrest was made Mrs. Wm. L.

Originally doomed to be electrocuted during the week of August 31, but winning, by grace of Governor Al Smith, a two weeks' respite, the final act in the tragic drama of "Yellow Charleston's" life was played to its gruesome end on the night of Thursday, September 17, when the murderer of the late Barron D. Wilkins, Harlem's cabaret king, was sent to face his God by way of the electric chair at Sing Sing prison. "Yellow Charleston," whose real name was Julius William Miller, was placed in the electric chair at 11.06 o'clock that night, and at 11.13 the prison physician pronounced the Harlem gambler and gunman as dead. To within a few minutes of the time to begin the shuffling, make which led to death, the life and two small daughters of the condemned man must call. The people the murderer must be given consolation and sympathy by the Rev. John J McCaffrey, Sing Sang's Catholic chaplain. Asked Presence of Guard Several months ago, Miller was operated on in the prison hospital for appendicitis, and he was guarded during this period by Benjamin Philips, the prison officials granted permission for this guard to remain with Miller until the deadly electric bolt had snuffed out the last vestige of life. Former Garvey Steamer Leased To Shipping Company for $160,050 S. S. Gen. Geo. W. Goethals Formerly the Booker T. Washington, Is Vessel Announcement was made Tuesday, September 22, by the Overseas, Navigation Corporation of 80 Wall street that the Black Cross Navigation and Trading Company of which Marcus Garvey is president, has chartered the steamer, General George W. Goethals, for a period of two years to B. I. Stafford, jr., of 15 William Street. The aggregate charter hire amounts to $160,050. The ship will be turned over to the Overseas Navigation Corporation for trans-Atlantic freight trade. The S. S, General Goethals is a former German liner, taken over by the U. S. Government during the world war. It was sold to the Garvey organization in the fall of 1923 and was rechristened the Bonker T Washington. It made one trip to the West Indies under its orders of the coloured organization. But at the time Garvey was about to go to jail and his organization was in bad financial straits, and the steamer was held at several ports in Cuba and the West Indies because of money due the crew and for repairs. Since its return to New York several months ago, it has been idle. Members of the U. N. I. A., of which the Black Cross Navigation Co. is a subsidiary, are jubilant over the leasing of the vessel, which had become a white elephant on their hands. New Jersey Motorist In Harlem Mishap New Jersey Motorist In Harlem Mishap Adial: Alston, 30, of 132 Mozart street, Rutterford, N.J. driving his own car, collided with all auto traint was owned and being operated by Antonio Maudia, of 30 West 41st street, Sunday night. The latter was driving South on Seventh avenue, and Antonio, was westbound in 133rd street. The latter's car was demaged to the extent of a broken mudguard and a blown out rear tire. The bumper on Alston's car was bent. An unusual incident occurred after the condemned man had been placed in the chair, "Yellow Charleston," before the death cap was adjusted, asked permission of Warden Lawes to speak. But when the warden admitted that he might not do so, the man, in death, was unable to answer. At Hulbert, the executioner, she told the electric switch which controlled the current, and the end came to Miller's life. Killed Two Same Night Although convicted only of the murder of Barron D. Wilkins, "Yellow Charleston" had been a double killer on the same night, for just a few minutes before shooting Wilkins to death at the corner of 134th street and Seventh avenue, Miller had shot and killed a fellow gambler, William Harris, this tragedy occurring in the 1920s. The high house ducted by Charleston" in the basement of the house at 129 West 134th street, a short distance, on opposite side of street, from the cabaret owned by Wilkins. The double killing took place on Saturday night, May 24, 1924, about 7 o'clock. Miller made his getaway temporarily, but later gave himself up at the Center street police station in Charleston, where he careened in the Tombs, charged the two murders. The killer was put on trial Monday, October 6, in the Court of General Sessions, Judge John F. McHenry presiding. Trial Ended October 23. 1924 The trial lasted until Thursday, October 23, when, at 10.30, in the morning, "Charleston" heard a jury's verdict that they had sound him guilty of murder in the first degree for the killing of Barron DeWare Wilkins, and a little later he heard Judge McIntyre set the date of Thursday, October 30, for the pronouncing of the death sentence A postponement, however, delayed the sentencing to Monday, November 10, when Judge McIntyre set the week of December 22 for the verdict. An appeal from the verdict automatically deferred the execution, and it was not until the past summer that the week of August 31 was finally set for the carrying out of the sentence. Just six hours before the appointed time (11 p.m., Thursday, September 3), when all Hope had been abandoned, and the condemned man had bidden farewell to his wife and children, Governor Smith telephoned Warden Laws authorizing a two weeks' reprise. Actor Wins Publicity This action was based on a spectacular plea made by Earl Carroll, a New York actor, who had been a fellow prisoner in the Tombs with "Yellow Charleston," and who flowed to Albany in an airplane to advise the Governor that keeping with a promise made in prison that he would act on new and vital evidence that would lose of greatest value to "Charleston." District Attorney Bauton, on strength of Carroll's assertions recommended the reprieve, and Gov Smith acted. But on Wednesday, September 16, the county prosecutor informed Gov Smith that the alleged new evidence was of no value whatever, and the inference was drawn that the actor, in his mordant desire to win publicity for the theatrical ventures with which he is, connected, used this as a means to that end. Attempts to secure another reprieve for Miller were of no avail, and so there came the final act in Miller's life drama, running from 11.06 to 11.13 o'clock. Thursday night, September 17, 1925. --- POLICE OFFICIAL TALK EXPERIENCES HAL WITH HARLEM CITIZENS AND DECHURNS They ARE AMONG NEW YORK'S BEST INHABITANTS Detectives and Patrolmen Always Instructed To Practice Courtesy and Show Consideration, and People Should Cooperate and Consider Police As Friendly Defectives attached to the 10th Precinct police station have recently explained to newspaper-men of Harlem what they experience in dealing with colored citizens: why some policemen are termed "bad cops," and why they believe detected crimes and why troops are among the best citizens. At all hours of the day, and all through the night, people are coming into the Detective Bureau reporting something or somebody. The detectives are always willing and ready to offer advice or to instruct residents of their precinct as to what steps to take in order to punish those who misuse guns or sapphire breakers and protect life and personal property. It was stated by one detective that cooperation-with the authorities on the part of citizens would bring about results that both policemen and citizens would enjoy. "The people should look upon a policeman as a friend rather than an enemy," one of them stated. He said that for several years he had done duty as a patrolman in Harlem. before he was assigned to the Detective force with all cliffside. That particular officer stated that civility and courtesy on the part of a policeman, as well as any other individual, win the respect of persons that one comes into contact with daily. He said that he has used that method-effectively. Only Crooks Fear Police "What, reason has a law-abiding citizen to be afraid of a policeman?" another, policeman asked. "Only rooks and criminals fear policemen, as went on to say. Former Police Inspector Williams once said that there was more law in the end of a night stick than there is on the statute books. But Inspector or Williams was once an officer in the police department. Examining why some policemen employ drastic measures at times, it was pointed out that a policeman must adapt himself to the environment in which he works. There have been times when a detective or patrolman was sent into a precinct where the residents were peaceful and law abiding, for the most part, while those of the district from which he was transferred were just the opposite. In such cases, policemen have must be in misfit, in the people that they handling, being so accustomed to a class-that could only be kept within the law by rough tactics. All policemen agree that patrolmen and detactives are not perfect individuals, and men are even as does a teacher, and ministers a school master or a public official. Want Better Understanding The officer in charge of detectives at the 16th Precinct has made it his duty to give the men under him special instructions to reason with the people who make complaints and bring about a better understanding of the situation and races where friction is imminent. Many times racial outbreaks have been avoided in Harlem by the quick wit of policemen. One instance is the case of a colored man who entered a white man's home a few days ago and committed a nuisance when ordered out the interior of an enclosed house. The house and an alteration was threatening, which drew a crowd. Colored citizens sympathized with the man who was intruding, and the white men took sides with their own kind. Two detectives from the West 135th street bureau arrived into the house, and a police officer sending the white man back into his house, starting the colored man down the street, and scattering the crowd. There have been times when policemen have taken up a collection among themselves to aid a beggar who was sick. In a week a hat was passed around in the 16th Precinct to collect enough money for a week's lodging and meals to be given a colored man from Georgia who walked into the Detective Bureau, and stated that he was "down out" and didn't want to steal anything Amusing Incidents Many amusing situations creep in a day's work for the detective. On one occasion when this writer was present in the bureau a woman came in and reported the sight of a man with a large pearl necklace. She was asked if there was any other description of the ring and she said she had none. That woman was evidently unaware of the fact that jewelry and pawn shops are intertwined. She went to the small pearls, got she expected the detective to locate the stolen property and arrest the thief. Domestic trouble causes some people to come into the Detective Bureau. Some people have been incarcerated. Precinct Bureau and asked for a divorce. Men have come in and asked detectives to arrest persons for whom they have no warrant. They thought that a detective could walk into a man's home and put him under an arrest without a complaint. A warrant being issued by the court. West Indian and colored Americans air their petty grievances and personal empathy for each other at various times in the Detective Bureau Detectives are requested to find lost children, wayward girls, prodigal husbands, stolen furniture, and even stray dogs.

Colored Workman Taken Into Union, Turns Strikewaker Two colored men are trying to break a strike at the Protest Bros., shop 514 Broadway. The shop manufactures traveling bags, and fancy leather articles, employing 15 white men and women, all union workers. A few weeks ago, a colored man, by the name of Jones, not very long from the South was taken off the job. The union issued him a card and agreed that he be a full-fledged member of the union and allowed a chance to learn the trade. Two weeks ago the workers at the Protest Bros., shop went on strike but it is alleged that the colored man refused to walk out with the white men and women. He was told that he would not be requested to do prison duty before he shop if he refused to work and the union offered him in another shop on condition that regardless of what the new job paid him, the union would give him enough money to make his weekly wages reach $20. Jones went to the new Job, but it, alleged that he was not qualified to do the work and so was offered a job at $15 a week. Monday, Jones returned to the old job at Protest Broge, with another coloured man to bounce strike, in the face, of bounces union members who plucked the place A reporter for The Age consulted Frank Crosswail, executive secretary of the Trades Union Committee, for Organizing Negro Workers, concerning the alleged strike breaking of the two colored men. Mr. Crosswail stated that the colored worker who was given a chance to learn the trade and become, a member, of the union evidently failed to see the advantages offered him in being a skilled craftsman. He stated that if the union wins the strike, which is probable, the colored men who held down the job as would be put out and besides their act scab workers and strike workers would hurt other colored workers in the future. Mr. Crosswail said, in what nature, Mr. Crosswail might not, so readily take out a job an inexperienced colored worker and allow him a chance to learn: the trade; on account of the act of Jones. "Jones would have to be taken back on the job with the other union workers, if the union wins the strike," Mr. Crosswalth said. He also stated that one of the officers of the Union had told him that there are several colored men in the union of whom he could speak-only in the most complimentary terms. The workers at the Protest Bros., shop happened to belong to one of the most liberal unions in the country, Mr. Crosswalth stated. The strike is still on and as the white men and women, who are picketing the shop daily, see the doorman, that they agree to work with and allow them to the chance to learn the work and become a skilled craftman, working as a seab in an effort to break the strike, it tends to breed race hatred. Woman Learning To Drive Auto Runs Car Up On The Sidewalk Mrs Savannah Moore, 28, of 653 Lenox avenue, met with an accident Thursday afternoon, September 17, while learning to drive her new car. At the intersection of Seventh avenue and 145th street, she collided with another car and damaged the left rear mud guard. The collision caused her to lose control of the car and if ran up on the sidewalk, smashing a plate glass window in a butcher shop at 2503 Seventh avenue. The damaged car was driven by John Pluebrick, Jr. of 375 Park Avenue, who was using his father's car. Mrs. Moore suffered a nervous shock for which she was given medical treatment by Rosalie of the Harlem Hospital. She was being instructed in driving by Ernest Beckman, a licensed chauffeur and they were driving north when their car struck the one which was west bound in 145th street.

One of the inter- tering developments of the session was the adoption of its resolution on race, re- lations, dealing, particularly, with the status of the Negro. Declarations that differences of race, color, language, wealth and social standing lead to mutual dilike, dislust, empathy andAddon crimes, the resolution states that "if especially behoves us to guard against the temptation of fostering racial strife," at the same time doing all possible to "promote peace and good will among all men." The resolution is as follows: **Race Relations.** The spirit of the constitution of our country makes for that true tolerance among our citizens which Christian justice, and charity, enjoin on all men Human pride, augmented by other passions, lead to a disregard of the right of others and the obligations of brotherly Sove. Differences of race, color language, wealth, and social standing are strained leading to mutual dilike, dislust, social unrest and even emmity and hideous crimes. "Since the 'citizenry' of our country is made up of men of various races and nations, it behooves us to guard against the temptations of fostering racial strife, while we should do what lies in our power to promote, peace, and good-will among all men, always ready to active-yl assist in the solution of our racial problems.

Controversy Dr. Robt. C. C. Shaw, Oxford, N. C., Defends Dr. Gaston and Says Alumni Action Was Not Representative—There Will Be No More Comment On Matter Printed By The Age The Lincoln Alumni Association, at a meeting held in Philadelphia at the residence of Dr. Burwell, criticised the action of the board of trustees of Lincoln University in offering the presidency of that school to Dr. John M. Gaston, secretary of the National Board of Missions of the Presbyterian Church, supervising all of the schools conducted by the Presbyterian Church for the education The criticism attributed to the Alumni Association accused Dr. Gaston of exhibiting much of the southern white man's attitude in his supervising of the colored schools; and of not favoring the same kind of college education for the Negro as for other race groups. It was also charged that Dr. Gaston used his power of control of the stipends of certain colored Commissioners to the Presbyterian General. Assembly to compel them to vote on ecclesiastical questions according to his dictation. These criticisms have aroused a storm of comment, both pro and con, and The Age has given space to such of those as have been sent to the editor. In the meantime, Dr. Gaston has declined to accept the presidency of Lincoln, and so it will be necessary for the board of trustees to make another selection. But communications continue to reach the editor's desk concerning the alleged action of the Alumni Association. Discussion To Be Stopped... The interest in the snatter does not warrant a continuation of the discussion along that line and so The Age is compelled to call a halt so far as its columns are concerned. This is done, with the publication-of a letter received from Robert G. C. Shaw, D. D., principal of the Mary Potter Memorial School, Oxford, N. C., who writes in defense of Dr. Gaston. Dr. Shaw's question as to the personnel of the Alumni Association present at the meeting in Philadelphia should be addressed to the officers of that body, who sent out what had the appearance of an official statement of the deliberations of the alumni organization. The letter from, Dr Shaw, which is the last that will be printed in the columns of The Age concerning the Gaston nomination, is as follows: MARY POTTER MEMORIAL SCHOOL Editor of The New York Age: I have waited to see in your columns the names of those who composed the meeting that met in Dr. Burwell's home in Philadelphia, presided over by Dr. Roberts of New York City. The meeting was called "Meeting of Lincoln Alumni". There went out from this meeting resolutions that by no means voiced the sentiment of the majority of the Lincoln men. Dr. I. A. Savage of Franklinton, N.C., in the issue following the issue containing the article in question, asked for the names of those composing the meeting We have waited to see the names I have known Dr. Roberts from his childhood, having been brought up in the same town, church and school with him. I know him to be a conscientious gentleman of the highest type. I also know Dr Burwell He is no less a friend of mine and a gentleman than Dr. Roberts. I claim for them both the highest type of professional men. For that reason I have waited patiently for the names of the other men who made up the meeting. It is hard to believe that Dr Roberts would be a party to such a set of resolutions and harder still to realize that Dr Burwell would allow such malicious falsehoods to materialize and go out from his home The statements were false through and through as they pertained to Dr J M Gaston I knew Dr. Gaston before he became secretary of the Freedmen's Board, and have known him intimately ever since he has been in our work. The colored people have never had a truer friend, one who believes that we should have all in kind and sort, as to education and personal liberty, that any other group has. As to Dr Gaston ever cutting or lowering the curriculum of Riddle University When that was done (and it was done because of financial straits of the Board at that time) Dr Gaston was not even connected with our work. As to his trying to influence workers to vote a certain way at the General Assembly and penalizing them if they did not vote to suit him That is a malicious falsehood. The man that told 'enture to say could Brooklynites To Hold Mass Meeting On Sunday Against Discrimination in Theatres A public mass meeting will be held Sunday, September 27 at Holy Trinity Baptist Church, DeKalb, near Franklin avenue, Brooklyn to protest against the Jim cowing of colored people in several of the Brooklyn theatres, particularly the Apollo Theatre, at Throop avenue and Fulton street. Recent reports have it that this theatre will not sell orchestra seats to its colored patrons. When several colored women requested seats last week the ticket seller used abusive language in denying their request. The meeting will be promptly at 3 p.m. The Rev T S Hartem, pastor of Holy Trinity Church, and organizer of the National Equal Rights League, under whose auspices the meeting is being held will preside. Several prominent citizens of Brooklyn will speak have been bribed by any one for "ten cents" and that he was at the General Assembly looking for bribe. I don't believe there is a man in our work who has ever even intrigued such a charge. The charge is all this imagination of a corrupt mind and still more corrupt heart of some one who no doubt has worked under Dr. Gaeton but had to be dropped because of inefficiency and unreliability. Those of us who have had the pleasure of laboring under Dr. Gaston were just as much opposed to him accepting the presidency of Lincoln as any of the men who met at Dr. Burwell's. As soon as we heard the position would be offered him, we began imploring him not to accept. Though we, congratulated the trustees on their wise choice we felt it would be almost a calamity, if Dr. Gaston should leave us just now. We are glad that he did not, but must say that the trustees will not find a man better fitted in every way for the presidency of Lincoln than Dr. J. M. Gaston. Such resolutions as those coming out from the supposed meeting of Lincoln Alumni are calculated to do the Alumni and Lincoln no little harm. If the resolutions were the personal sentiment of the few who met at the meeting in question, we have nothing to say. But when such resolutions go out as having been sent out by Lincoln Alumni, that is something else. As I have said they did not represent the sentiment of a majority of Lincoln n.e.n., especially those who happen to be Presbyterians and have labored under Dr. Gaston. I am a Lincoln man in good standing, and expect I have done as much for Lincoln and my race as any man that attended the alleged meeting. I never received a notice to attend such a meeting. The few men in New York and Philadelphia do not constitute Lincoln Alumni. There are a few of us in North Carolina who feel our importance, educationally, financially and morally to be equal to that of any other Lincoln men, and do not wish to have words put in our months in the form of a resolution that we did not and would not utter. It is not right. Give us the names of the men attending the Philadelphia meeting. A word as to Mr. "Torch" Those of us in the South feel quite sure as to who Mr. "Torch" is Though he has tried to cover his hands with fleece, we recognize his voice as that of Jacob He says he labored in the South under the old Freedmen's Board. I happen to know a man who once labored among us He had a charge that was live and promising when he took charge He left it dead, with a debt that he said he had paid. To try him out we put him in charge of one of our schools He proved a worse failure there than in church work. He went North to a city that wangd a colored Presbyterian church The money was in sight All they wanted was a competent and reliable man He failed there completely. They tell me the church that he now has is trying all they know how to get rid of him. If "Torch" should turn out to be the man that I have described I am sure the public will understand why he is so angry with Dr Gaston, and why he has such a poor opinion of the workers under Dr Gaston. Of all our men I must say he was the best church and school killer we have ever had I feel that I should apologize to the public for writing in this somewhat caustic spirit. My apology, however would be, "Is there not a cause?" This uncremisedised Philistine has defied the army of the Living God, calling the ministers of the great Presbyterian Church "loaddies" and accuses one of the church's best and most honored secretaries of bribing and coercing He in his own opinion, towers above the southern workers as Golath of old towered above David. If his head were half as soft as that of Golath I would be hopeful of the little stones that I have thrown striking him between the two eyes and sinking into his head with good results, so far as the public is concerned. Whoever "Torch" may be, he writes like the man that I have described. I don't blame him for not signifying his name. Any man who would writ esuch a falsehood, should he ashamed to sign them. It sets our race back about ten years every time we produce such a thick head and black heart with a tongue that has no regard for the truth. When "Torch" writes again let him sign his name as gentlemen and scholars delight to do.

Some ten or twenty years ago, when an individual member of the race who dwelt in a small town in upper New York State gave the comparatively large sum of one thousand dollars to Tuskegee Institute, it was hailed as an unusual exhibition of philanthropy. Since that time we have seen a great increase in the number of donations of this kind, as well as in the amount of the gifts. Donations of twenty-five thousand dollars have been frequently recorded in the Negro press for such deserving objects as new Y. M. C. A. buildings, to aid colleges and to establish homes for the aged and orphans. Philanthropy is generally understood as the love of humanity, the desire to help relieve its suffering and to aid its progress toward better conditions. One newspaper paragrapher, in recording the benefaction of an insurance president, said that philanthropy is giving it back and maintained that while this definition did not come out in the dictionary it was good. That may be true, to the extent that the philanthropist has to benefit by prosperity or business success, before he can devote his thousands to the help of others. But there is more than just the idea of giving back involved in the exercise of real philanthropy. There is the desire to help along those who need the most, to relieve the suffering and affected, to shelter the homeless and unprotected or to aid in the spread of education that will train youth for the struggle of life. All these motives enter into the various forms of philanthropy practised, and they reflect equal credit on those influenced by them.

The growth of philanthropy among the ace is a healthy reflection of the success a business that has attended various enterprises promoted and supported by our people.

The late Madame Talker and her daughter have also given trge sums toward racial uphift Within the last year a North Carolina college received gift of twenty five thousand dollars from one of the successful insurance men, while another gave land and building valued at the same amount to provide a home for the red and orphans.

This increase of the spirit of philanthropy could be seduously cultivated and enraged. It should be directed into proper amends and not allowed to die or dimin for lack of exercise. There are many serving causes and institutions to keep a growing number of our philanthropists by signing pledges of support and the ecks that should follow. Friends of the atte race have done much along, philanthropic hues, but it is a hopeful sign, when can fail such an encouraging increase the number of race philanthropists. As homely saving put it, "God helps him to help himself." ORIGIN AND FUTURE OF RACES A newspaper correspondent at Cape town with Africa thought of an important importance to cable to the Thai coast. Future that modern native with a prehistoric heir had been discovered in Africa. The discovery was made while dissecting the body of a man who died a few weeks ago. Theull is said to be of exactly the same type that of the Baskop prehistoric man discovered in the Transvaal twelve years ago, noting that the facts are true, what does is similarity of skull formation prove? An authority who has given considerable aid to the subject, says that it shows that modern scholars have become convinced that the present homo sapiens (European man) is a derivative of an extinct race, the substratum of which was the African Negro race. The European white man, and his descendants in America, are according to this conclusion nothing but modified or bleached out white Negroes. This pronouncement was made about twenty years ago in an article entitled "The Ethnic Unity of the Negro and the Anglo-Saxon Race," published in the Colored American Magazine. Having thus demonstrated the common origin of the two races by cable, another eminent Nordic authority seeks to argue that beauty is world wide and that the human race will all be one race in ages to come, say a million years or more. The New York Evening Journal, in expounding this view of the matter, said among other things: The various human races are already much more mixed than anybody imagines. The eman who believes that he is entireyl Jewish is probably 40 per cent mistaken, on an average, at least. The man who believes that he is entirely Jew "Nordic" may be as much as 99 per cent, wrong, to say nothing of the fact that the word "Nordic" means little. Visigoths, Ostrogoths, all the Germanic tribes and others that poured down into Italy—where are they? Absorbed by Italy. You see in Northern Italy yellow hair and blue eyes, but it is ALL ITALIAN. Take your silver dollar or your gold piece, look at it, and you know that there are more metals than silver or gold. And the coin is much improved by the mixture; it makes it stronger, it wears better. So the human race. We shall all be mixed up some day. Some of the races perhaps may die out, as many races already HAVE died out. The soft eyed, gentle, sluggish people, that lived in peace and what we are pleased to call "im-morality" on the Pacific Islands, are dying and will soon be gone. Our brothers, the Red Men, whom we treated so harshly, have pretty nearly disappeared. But something of them remains still, mixed with our American blood, and will stay. / There are many metals in the ground, from iron, most plentiful, the backbone of building, to the erratic mercury, that scatters, will not stay put, but that gathers gold to itself. Who knows but that the races may be, like the metals, each having its quality, each different from the others, all destined to be united in one fine mixture some of these days, to give the PERFECT RESULT. Anyhow, whether that happens or not, and while you are waiting for it, try to keep your thing free from race prejudice and religious prejudice, the two defects most unbecoming in a good American citizen. These speculations on the origin and future of the human race are all full of interest and the student may find evidence to reinforce both theories. The lesson drawn by the Journal, that freedom from race prejudice and religious prejudice should be the effort of a good American citizen, is as salutary as it is astonishing. The term "Nordic" seems to be losing its efficacy as a shibboleth of superiority. The Journal deprecated its use as meaning little, while Bishop Hughes of the Methodist Episcopal Church called the claim of Nordic superiority nonsense. Speaking at Chicago a few weeks ago, before the Swedish Conference of his church, the Bishop was reported as saying: "It is not Anglo-Saxon blood, but the blood of Jesus Christ, that was made us what we are. There is much said at this time about Anglo-Saxon superiority. It was not so long ago our ancestors came out of the forests of Europe and when they wanted a deer they did not stop to cook it but they ate the flesh. It is Jesus that holds the future and if we turn our backs on Him we will be ruined." Science and religion seem to unite against the doctrine advocated by the Anglo-Saxon clubs of Virginia and other adherents of Nordic superiority.

A few weeks ago there was published in these columns an article on the "True Type of Farmer," detailing the successful attempt of a North Carolinian to reestablish himself as a producer and land owner in one of the counties of New York State. Inquiries have been made as to whether men of his type could do the same thing at the present time under changed conditions. While A few weeks ago there was published in these columns an article on the "True Type of Farmer." detailing the successful attempt of a North Carolian to reestablish himself as a producer and land owner in one of the counties of New York State. Inquiries have been made as to whether men of his type could do the same thing at the present time under changed conditions. While the precise opportunity opened to the farmer eighteen years ago might not be found again, there are similar opportunities offered to men of that character and capacity for working the soil in other sections. Our attention has been called recently to the advantages offered to farmers in the State of Minnesota, which an enthusiastic correspondent calls "the Negro's Garden of Eden." There is one land company in Minnesota which claims to own about forty thousand acres of wild and unimproved land on the White Earth reservation. It desires to get at more farmers to develop the country and offers land at prices lower than they were before the war. The only payment required is three and a half per cent of the purchase price at the time the contract is made and a like amount every six months. At this rate the farm would be paid for in thirty-three years. This is termed the amortized payment plan. Of course the farmer can make larger payments if his income from the farm will permit it, or he may be able to secure a loan from the State or Federal land bank. These lands range in price from five dollars to one hundred dollars an acre, depending on whether the farms are wholly improved, partly under cultivation but with out buildings, or wild prairie, brush and timber land. There is said to be an abundance of pure water in this locality and wells may be driven at a reasonable depth. Diversified farming is advised as the best for general results, as the one crop farmer puts all his eggs in one basket. Dairying, stock raising beef and cattle, sheep and hogs, are all possible in this section. Clover, alfalfa and corn can be raised for the stock, as well as wheat, oats, barley and rye. Flax and potatoes yield good crops in this part of Minnesota, while sugar beets find a ready market with a guarantee of six dollars per ton for the present year. Out of this guarantee the pioneer can meet the payments on his land, as the average yield is ten tons to the acre. In the winter the extra hands not needed on the farm can find employment in the large cities. There are still ways to get a farm for the farmer who knows his business and is willing to work on the land. Many of those who have left the farms of the South would do well to reestablish themselves in the same occupation in the North. COMMUNISM AND KU KLUISM. COMMUNISM AND KU KLUISM. The action of the State Department in excluding from this country Shapurji Saklatvala, a native of India, who advocates communism and is also a member of the British Parliament, has aroused considerable criticism, especially from Senator Borah. As this government permitted the open assembly and parade at the capital of the Ku Klux Klan a few weeks ago, its exclusion of one Parsee communist is suggestive of straining at a gnat while swallowing the camel, hump and all. The ground for the exclusion of Mr. Saklatvala is Secretary Kellog's belief that this government should not "admit foreigners to this country to preach anarchy or a revolutionary overthrow of government." But the root of Mr. Saklatvala's offending seems to be his denunciation of British imperialism in India. The action of the State Department, including from this country Shapurjil Sikandala, a native of India, who advocated immunism and is also a member of the British Parliament, has aroused considerable criticism, especially from Senator Klan. As this government permitted the men assembly and parade at the capitals of the Ku Klux Klan a few weeks ago, exclusion of one Parsee communist suggestive of straining at a gnat while allowing the camel, hump and all. The ground for the exclusion of Mr. Saklatva's Secretary Kellog's belief that this government should not "admit foreigners" is country to preach anarchy or a revolutionary overthrow of government." But the lot of Mr. Saklatva's offending seems his denunciation of British imperialism in India. A greater menace to the security of American institutions is presented in the ridiculous efforts of the klan to establish a visible empire, which shall control government by trading on racial and religious prejudices. But the klan already assesses a considerable number of vowful timid politicians and public officials a useful how they tread upon the toes of the eagles and their followers. Leaving State Department to close the door to the communist, who does not camouflage sentiments nor mask his face, it might well to review recent manifestations of Ku Kluxism at home and abroad, as is acquired from the minor dangers of communism. In one of the hortoughs of New York,eterate letter full of threats, signed "K.," a copy of which was published in one issue of last week, was received by Saklatva A Browne, the Staten Island postmaster, who bought a house in a neighborhood occupied by whites. Not only were three sides against Browne, a Federal employee against the district attorney who is investigating the attack made on Browne property.

In Niagara county, New York State, there has been a split in the men, the leaders having fallen out after our candidates for political office were elected at the polls. Many of the Northern numbers have objected to the control caused by the Southern leaders, who can be the largest portion of the money paid in mutations and regalia. An attempt to introduce the Klan into company was nipped in the bud by the race at Berlin, who arrested the American leaders on a charge of sedition and detained them as undesirable aliens. This government might well follow the German method of dealing with the Ku Klux Klan. A greater menace to the security of American institutions is presented in the insidious efforts of the klan to establish an invisible empire, which shall control the government by trading on racial and religious prejudices.

This government might well follow the German method of dealing with the Ku Klux Klan HEALING PRIMARY SCARS. One of the first efforts of sagacious party leaders, after the results of the primary elections have settled the question of candidates for the ensuing campaign, is to heal the scars of conflict due to rivalry within the party. Among the Republicans of New York City, this was an easy matter, after the primary showed that Mr. Waterman was the choice of the enrolled voters of the party as their candidate for mayor by a vote of about thirty to one. His plurality of nearly 100,000 votes showed the degree of interest aroused by his candidacy and foretold a larger vote for election day. His party rivals for the nomination, Mr. Lyons and State ex-Senator Bennett, accepted the result with equanimity and pledged their support to the party ticket. Any political One of the first efforts of sagacious par- tners, after the results of the prima- tions have settled the question of ca- cates for the ensuing campaign, is I the scars of conflict due to rivalry wit the party.

He plu Comments By The Age Editors On Sayings of Other Editors The Age Readers' Forum acars were readily healed. The healing process was not so speedy on the Democratic side. While Senator Walker obtained a handsome majority of the votes cast, even carrying Brooklyn, by a few thousands, there have been many mutterings among disgruntled Democrats as to the advisability of a third ticket. Mayon Hylan announced that he would return to private life, but issued no pledge that he would support Walker. The Hearst papers urged the Mayor to run on an independent ticket and seem inclined to carry on the fight against Senator Walker, whom they regard as Governor Smith's candidate. The scars on the Democratic side are slow to heal. One auspicious result of the primary contest on the Republican side was that it aroused the voters to a sense of the importance of the city campaign. All the district leaders strove to bring out a large vote and in most cases succeeded in doing so. None made a better record in this respect than David B. Costuma in the Nineteenth Assembly District, who by square dealing and the practice of real democracy, has won the confidence and respect of the voters. The colored voters of this district rallied to the support of Waterman with remarkable unanimity. The next duty before the voters who are enlisted in the fight for good government is to get their names on the registration books. And when they register they should enroll as members In discussing the question of who is to blame for the fact that many of our churches and other large buildings have to be built by white mechanics, when there are colored men who could do the work, the Philadelphia Christian Recorder said: What keeps the Negro contractor from doing the job? The lack of finance. Because Negroes have not yet confidence in themselves to build financial institutions which can finance their building operations they must stand still while their own great churches are being erected. In this city the Odd Fellows built a great office building, Frederick Douglass Hospital was built anew (when its head was the city's greatest race agitator) and Union Baptist Church built the largest church edifice in this state—all with white contractors. Why? It was impossible to finance their buildings otherwise. We know hundreds of competent colored mechanics, but they lack organization. If you give them a job for $1,000 they cannot finance it but must come to you for money. Hence they cannot do the work on their own church and lodge buildings. Organization and cooperation of both the labor and the capital of the race are necessary to correct this condition. As the Recorder suggested, the press, the pulpit and fraternal lodges can help to this end. New York Howard Alumnus Answers Dr. J. E. Shepard Editor of The New York Ages Edition of The New York Age The Age of September 19 carried a letter addressed by Dr. J. A Shepherd to the Alumni and friends of Howard University, which letter he expressed the hope that each graduate of the institution and member of the Alumni Association would regard as personal. As a graduate and member of the executive committee of the General Alumni Association, I beg leave to reply to said letter. OPPOSED TO DISORDER The writer said that "as a race, we are opposed to disorder and to rotting lawlessness, disorder, strife, and against teachers in any form." Dors he know of any race that is not. He might have spared himself the trouble of stating a thing so well known, but not satisfied with that he proceeded to accuse the leaders of "devising such" and that "they are not striking at Howard but that they are striking at the whole program of Negro education in this country." The elementary rules of logic would require that he first state the premise before arriving at the conclusion. Dr Shepherd said that, he holds no brief for the president of Howard University; perhaps that is true. But I venture to suggest that no one who heard Dr. Shepherd's commencement address at Howard, on the 5th of June, 1925 in which he lauded Dr Durkee as a Moses at the Negro would believe him. I usually people who hold the longest lengths are always the ones who hasten to explain that they hold none. Dr Shepherd said that he has heard Dr Durkee speak in the South and in the South. I have not only heard him, but have seen his vindictive ruth- of the political party, they desire to support. It is only by enrolling as a member of some political party that the voter can have a voice in the primary, where candidates are chosen. Watch for the dates of the registration days and do not fail to register and enroll. ELEVATED LITERATURE. The transportation companies of New York City not only carry passengers above and below ground for great distances at the insignificant cost of a nickel fare, but they relieve the tedium of the trip by gems of prose and striking illustrations in those periodical bulletins pasted on the window panes. Railroad presidents, bankers, business and professional men all figure as the fessional learn all figure as the authors of these brief and pungent messages to the traveling public. In the Elevated Express.-No. 34, last week many passengers eagerly perused the following lines by a wellknown author, under the caption "Why I Use The Interborough. From the Secretary, National Association for the Advancement of Colored people:" "I use the Interborough because it enables me to spend fifteen minutes longer over my breakfast table uptown and fifteen minutes longer at my desk downtown, without being late going or coming JAMES WELDON JOHNSON." Mr. Johnson is evidently a favorite of Fortune to have escaped delays caused by the recent subway and elevated tie-ups, that have ceased to be a novelty. The Norfolk Journal and Guide in reviewing the meeting of the Lett Carey Baptist Foreign Mission Society held in that city, said: The convention itself was remarkable in many respects. In its clarity and singleness of purpose, in its zeal and enthusiasm toward that purpose and its constructive accomplishments, it was outstandingly remarkable. During the four-day meeting more than $49,000 in cash was raised to be expended under direction of the convention in christening the pagan worshippers of Africa, Haxti and other foreign lands. But even more strikingly impressive than the raising of that splendid sum of money were the reports describing the work already accomplished on the mission fields, by the Lott Carey Convention and who told of the zeal of his heightened the speech of the educated native African, a product of missionary efforts, people to hear the Christian gospel and to grasp the civilizing influence of the Western world. Any person who attended any one of the sessions of the convention or of the women's auxiliary must have come away with a more definite perspective of the needs, hopes and progress of foreign missions and with an awakened consciousness of the needness of the cause to him or herself. The meeting showed that the missionary still survives and is zealously working for the conversion of so-called heathen lands. lessness wreaking vengeance upon those who dare to have any personal disagreement with him. I have been informed that he applied to Dean Kelly Miller, the most distinguished graduate of Howard, the epithet of a "templemptible puppy." I know that in Dr Durkee's account, Howard has lost some of the most distinguished educators (some of them of national and international reputation, and while he may try to hide behind the screen of a spinster board at trusses (with few berries except just to the presenthead of the university) he chargeable the dismissal of four professors and instructors after service of 15, 13, 8, and in year respectively, without even a does notice a type of conduct which I think, even Dr. Shepherd will agree, does not warrant of common deces. PROGRESS OF THE UNIVERSITY Dr. Sheridan is seemingly a wretched of the mistaken notion held by so many people that is, that the progress or greatness of a university consists in the funds equipped buildings, the number of strength of its student bodies, or the size of its endowment. He also said that Howard is today the largest colored school in the country. He has information let me say that Howard has always been the lowest and did not bee under the present regime. And may I add for his ongoing comment that the greatest of progress of a university consists in the character of the men and women it sends forth into the world, the spirit and ideals of the institution, its traditions, and its great facilities, and not in buildings and endowments. I know of no one who has been on opposing Dr. Durkee because he belongs to any one particular race and frankly Dr. Sheridan is the first one to cause that question. He stated two times. The time is fast coming when Negroes will manage their own institute. In expanding the subject "Heal- Makes for Wealth," in the Chri- Whip, Dr. Troy Smith was credi- nished with the following utterance: Hon. W. E. Gladstone, the great Eng- lish statesman said, "In the reach of the people lies the weal tion." This was uttered by Gladstone about 200 years ago, but the same principle is true today. As Gladstone was prime minister during the reign of Queen Victoria, the dating of his utterance is to be the period of the Georges is a fine point. The Chicago health author look up his English history and see he has not mixed his authorities. The career of William Ewart Gladstone conferred the period, of 1808 to 1898 Referring to Judge Gary's request a task on crime and his suggestion as a better law enforcement, the Pittsburgh Courier, said: What the country needs more than anything Judge Gary mentioned in a Court with enough intestinal cancer impose real sentence upon more than fessional criminals, and thereby those who are contemplating crimes as means of livelihood. If Judge Gary will devote the Commission to the task of convincing our Courts that appropriate punishment is solely needed not only for bootleggers, but for every kind of professional criminal, he will have contributed more toward crime reduction than any Commission can contribute by any number or suggestions, recommendations, ordinances or laws. The average judge on the bench today will admit that the United States is almost always on criminals as compared with Great Britain. Punish the criminals adequately stop the hero and heron stories in our Court rooms, and crime will out of business for want of a premise. There is too much laxity in enforcement of the law and great tendency toward the coodling of the criminal. Divest the criminal of the false halo of glory shown in the tiny press and the movies and strip his call of legal subterfuge, so that his punishment may be swift and certain of crime will lose its lure for the signant and foolish. tions, but that time has not built com- sions to all institutions. In this mind seems to run along with Dr. Durkees, who is reported as saving that he once thought Negroes can capable of certain things. It appears that the only difference between the two is that Dr. Durkee said that he no longer thinks the Negroes can- apable of the things of which other people are capable while Dr. Shepherd has expressed himself not only in the doubtful of this capacity, but in actually sure that the Negroes can incapable of managing certain of his own institutions. It would have been particularly helpful. Dr. Shepherd had pointed out the nuis- tances which Negroes are capable of managing and those which they are not capable of managing. Personally, I am not so sure about the particular color of preside- tors that Negroes are interested in their own institutions, but rather they are more concerned about the kind. So far as Howard is concerned what we need is not a white man brown or yellow president, but a man of honor, an educator one sympath- with the aspiration of the Negro youth, one whose reputation for such is unquestioned, and one who will use his own words, "respect the right of teachers to be made in their classrooms and who will accord the dignity and respect appropriate to a company of scholars. I agree with Dr. Shepherd and accept his call, not to put in the future progress of Howard University, and I think that if the Alumni and friends of Howard University are main quiet while Dean Kelly is being kicked about Alumni thenceonly Rhodes scholar of the Noyoga race thrown out without a notice, on the pretext of economic other savants as Dr. Woodrow Professors Houston and Brion Turmer and many others of the school, for no other reason personal differences with the president and their refusal to become part of his system of espionage, that if the Alumni and remain quiet while these things are being done all of which can be I think the progress of Howard which we are so realious thing of the past, and nothing he left for us to do but heads in shame, and he contemptible cowards. I suggest that Dr. Shepherd his admonition that saumu he remedied by introspective to the present head versity for he has tired that years, and seemingly has at that conclusion.

The series will start at Hildale's home grounds, Darby, Pa., Saturday, September 26, and will be concluded at the International League Ball Park, Jersey City, with a double header on Sunday, the 27th. The Jersey City team will be composed of Herb Thonmahlen, formerly of the Yankees and Brooklyn, and at present with Rochester; Rube Zellers, one of Jersey City's leading hurlers; and Joe Lucy, formerly of the Boston Red Sox and now with Buffalo, as pitchers; Neilberg, formerly of St. Louis and now with Syracuse, catcher; Lena Styles, first base; Snooka Dowd, leading base stealer of the International League, hitting 340 for Jersey City, second base; Moe Berg, leading shortstop of the International League, formerly of the Chicago White Sox; Lew Malone, acquired by the Jersey City Club from the Yankees; Johnny Jacobs of this year's Baltimore and Reading clubs, Guo Goebel, formerly of Bucky Harris' Washington Senators, and Bill McCarrion, who made a record this season in the International League, pinch hitting safely 14 out of 15 times at bat, and breaking up two games the same day with home runs, with Bill Urbanski, Jersey's kid infielder, make up the probable lineup for the white team.

The largest crowd to ever witness a baseball game at the Jersey City Park is expected and the fans are looking forward to a rare baseball treat. McMAHONS DENY CHARGES OF PREJUDICE AT COMMONWEALTH Charges of racial prejudice and of taking undue advantage of boxers, which were made through the columns of this paper last week by John Lester Johnson, brought a general denial from Jess McMahon, matchmaker for the Commonwealth Club, at 135th street and Madison avenue. Johnson charged that the McMahon brothers had shown a personal prejudice against him, refusing to allow him to fight at their club in the seven years he has been a fighter in. Hailem, and going out of their way to keep him from fighting in others clubs. Included in the charges was a statement to the effect that the local promoters had written a letter to a French promoter which prevented Johnson from getting fights in Paris. In an interview with the editor of The Age on Saturday, Jess McMahon stated that his club was a neighborhood organization and that he had always tried to deal fairly with the people of this section of New York. He said the reason Johnson had not been given a fight-at the Commonwealth was that Johnson is not very popular with the boxing fans and has never been a good drawing card. So it would be a poor business proposition to put him on in the feature bout. Johnson, he says, has been unwilling to fight semi-final. However, Mr. McMahon promised Mr. Moore that a fight would be arranged for Johnson if he and his manager would come down to the Commonwealth to see him. He requested that The Age sport editor be present at the conference. Johnson was reported suck the first of the week and the conference will probably be held the end of the week John Lester continues to stick to his charges and says he will produce clippings from a Paris paper in which the letter alleged to have been written by McMahon defamatory to him was published. Warhop pitched the Brooklynites to a 12-10 victory in the first game but in the other contest, with Ferrer pitching, Bushwick barely escaped a shutout. Ferrer walked six men and allowed six hits but they were so well matched that only one run resulted. He was the only one to lookooks to he another, his find for Lon.

At Lincoln Theatre The Bowyer of today is a calm and placid place compared to the famous street as it was a quarter of a century ago. Most of the "dives" have been turned into ice cream parlor or carefully stage-managed show places for tourists. The "criminals and degenerates who used to make it a by-word among respectable people have given way to shifless wrecks where nerves is great enough only for the filching of an unnairy pocket-book But in one respect things are much the same. In the old days, the denizens of the Bowery, whose lives form the interesting background of "The Mystery of the Bowery," Herbert Brenon production for Paramount, used various terms to designate people and things with which they came into most frequent contact. This argot, or slang, was not only pictured and typical of the Bowery community, but who used it, but was also of practical value to them, for it was a kind of code which prevented the stranger (who was usually the victim) from understanding the trend of the conversation. The gullible tourist, for example, would be Bowery in search of a think which he could afterwards relate—with em WHO CAN DANCE—LONG ENGAGEMENT. APPLY at 1 P.M.

A pickpocket is still a dip, and a safe-breaker a peterman. Everyone knows that a marik is a sucker, and that a red old days, a precious stone is a 'prop, a gold watch, chain is a 'red slang, a sneak thief is a 'helman. George Kibbis Turner, in his story on which "The Street of Forgotten Men" is based, has given an absorbingly interesting picture of the "inside" life of the Bowery, such as the operations, of the "cripple factory" and the activities of the professional beggars and panchandlers, will come under the head of "absolutely new" to most people. It will be especially startling to those good folk who have Been giving gengereal aid to the needy, both of yesterday and today; are fakes who deliberately prey on sympathetic passersby. John D.

"SUN UP" comes to the NEW DOUGLASS THEATRE Sunday, Monday and Tuesday, September 27, 28, 29, in screen form with Lucille La Vernie essaying the same role she created with such astounding success on Broadway. It is the story of cramped, uneducated, undeveloped souls, to whom the rising sun of intelligence brings peace, understanding, and love. The story is enacted in the picturesque mountains of North Carolina, not far from Asheville. The picture was directed by Edmund Goulding, who 'makes his bow as a Metro-Goldwyn director with this picture, and is said to have produced one of the most intensely dramatic pictures, of the season. In other leading roles are Conrad Nagel as "Rufe," and Pauline Starke as "Emmy."

Football Prospects Bright at Tuskegee Tuskegee Institute, Ala.—Two weeks of daily grind on the Washington field has worked wonders in the Crimson team. Promising new material has shown up on the gridiron and several old men have joined the team. The combining field is composed by the addition of George W. Goodwin, one of Tuskegee's fullbacks, who will have charge of the backfield, succeeding T.C. Myers, who has entered Columbia University; J. E. Fields, former variety tackle of the Wilberforce University team, will handle the reserve material, and Edward L. Dahney, of Hampton, three times all-American center will assist. The team will star with the Line Brown has been appointed assistant to Cleve L. Abbott, head coach.

Hampton Ready For Stiff Practice Hampton, Va.—If seventen lettered men, and a fighting spirit contribute a momentum to a championship stride Hampton, faces one of her greatest chances of producing another invisible eleventh, and establishing again the championship prestige, of 1922. Coach Smith has asked all insignia men to report early, as far as possible workouts will begin on, September 23 when a large number of new candidates are expected to tighten competition. Spencer Ruffin, long to be remembered by his performances on Hampton's 22 championship eleven, a veteran tackle, will again don the blue and white toga for Hampton; W.D. "Buldog," Williams star, halfback 22, will also be here to thank him for his contributions. The Hampton mentor will find it difficult, this year, not in securing enough men to compose a creditable team, but in reducing the stock of candidates down to the logical ten-and-one. Captain Oscar Carpindle will lead his followers from the pivot position, and will find Elmer Fortune, a worthy assistant; T.J. Ewing, a worthy assistant; year of Association football, Frederick, and James T. Alexander will offer plenty of competition for the guard berths Ruffin will prove a serious contender for one of the tackle positions held last season by R. Mundy and W.E. Lee. Dunlap Jones will probably occupy the shoes hung up by Jimmy Jones, who played live allotted time in C.I.A.

Horne, 189 Chaucey street, Brooklyn, N. Y. My dear Mrs. Horne: While we would much rather tell you the following personally, we feel sure that you will forgive the fact that we are using a letter through the office of Mr. Age. When Mr. White telephoned me, we vengeged for a pianist to us, we at first one of our best men, a young pianist who has been with us all summer, and who is from Baltimore. He 'came to our exchange, in The New York Ballet, and gave him a receipted bill for the performance written on the envelope as follows: "To Mrs. Edwin F. Horne, 189 Chancey street, Brooklyn, N. Y. Subway to Borough Hall, take Fulton street." I train to Reed avenue, though Reed avenue, two blocks turn to right to Chancey street." The pianist in question left our Exchange about 8.25 p. m., and as the time of the engagement was for 10 p. m., we thought no more of it until you telephoned us that the pianist had not put in his appearance. At the hour you notified us of the non-appearance, 11:45 p. m., we are sure that you can see that it was not that you can in piano form to you, because on Saturday night, every musician is engaged, or, at that late hour, out of our reach. We did not hear from the pianist himself until between 1 and 2 p. m., the following. Monday afternoon. However, we did hear that while he kept a dinner engagement or the Saturday in question, he remarked to another of our men that he did not face us at the Exchange as he did not for the engagement the night before. On Monday afternoon he put in his appearance at our Exchange and said that he had Jost his way. Now Mrs. Horne, we are indeed sorry that our man failed to make the engagement on Saturday night, and we regret his disregard for future engagements with you. His actions were little short of criminal, and the offense is made all the worse by the fact that the remedy was comparatively simple. We ask you to do us a most exertive forgiving us for this failure to render to the man contracted for, and a similar mistake will not occur again through an engagement of this same pianist.

The Educational Department of the Branch has grown tremendously during the past two years under the direction of Mrs. Emma Shields Penn. Careful study and much thought has been given to the planning of classes, and this year the program is particularly varied and broad, promising to increase the community and trades in which they can find ready and remunerative employment, but also-for-cultural accomplishments which will increase their powers of earning and of-enriched living. Perhaps you, too, would like to take advantage of one or more of those courses. First, among the vocational-comprises comes the Business School, which teaches business English, spelling, bookkeeping, office practice, whether to the beginner or to the person who wishes to take advanced work which may increase her efficiency or insure a better position. We recommend our Business School with pride because the instructors are experts, either as writers of shorthand, or as editors of the Gregg system and the handbook of our schools, therefore, unusually high. The Gregg system is considered the best one and is taught in 90 per cent of the commercial schools. Then you may wish to take the thorough course which Miss Hartgrove offers in the Beauty School, comprising all the branches that teach beauty cultureurs, the W. W. C.A. school does, teaching any "system" but, after investigation and study, includes in its course what seems to be the best of all systems. In this way it gives unlimited opportunity to its graduates. One of the emphasis in the Department of Education is preparation for the garment trades which are, so largely concentrated in New York City, presented from the trade point of view of the experts who know all the "tricks of the trade." Join one of these classes and ybu can become a dressmaker, a designer, a milliner, a draper, a power machine operator, a crochet beader, an embroiderer, a maker of French flowers, a specialist in lamp shades and novelties, an interior decorator, or an expert in bakery or wax art, for there is a class at the "YW" specializing in each of the garment trades that are distributed that several correlated courses may be taken through the year. More than ever, young people of this generation need to be "leavened" into an appreciation of the finer things of life; of the value of developing the "heart and mind" as well as the hand. So many great applications that does not stimulate this interest in the less tangible, but equally valuable preparation which helps to insure the success of young women in the business and social world today. Courses in English, public speaking, parliamentary law, Spanish, French, Bible, events, every day, singing and dance are offered, and are "open resame" to happier and more successful living. The testimony of two hundred students—who have found their classes fitted to their special needs, their teachers efficient and sympathetic their surroundings and comfortable cheerful the ill-behaved—has shown the educational program of the Y W C A is not only justified, but also greatly needed.

HERBEN Of the New York Tuberculosis and Health Association Influenza This disease which is sometimes mild, and sometimes like a plague in its terrors, is contagious. The germ is carried and spread around in the fine droplets of the secretions of the nose and throat which may be sprayed ten or eleven feet by a sneeze and a shorter 'distance' by a cough. The fine droplets of a sneeze are not visible to the eye as a rule in ordinary light, but if you wish to know what I am talking about sneeze into a ray of sunlight and the mint can be plainly seen. It is believed that healthy people may carry the influenza bacillus in the nose and without being aware of the fact, just as it is possible for a well person to carry the germs of diptheria. These germs passed to a person who susceptible can produce the disease. Winter and spring are the usual seasons for its attacks, but severe forms of it have been known to occur in warm weather. The very old and the very young are the one to escape this disease, when anyone escapes, but between these extremes the robust or the delicate may be equally liable to catch it. Alter one attack the patient may enjoy a comparative freedom from danger of its return, but that welcome immunity is not dependable and is probably short-lived. In itself a great many deaths, but its peculiar menace in the fact that it, tills the ground for a fatal pneumonia. In many instances, it is pneumonia which carries off the patients. In the 1918. epidemic approximately 25 per cent of the cases had pneumonia. If influenza had not existed that year we may safely assume that the enormous number of deaths would not have occurred, because for one thing, pneumonia would not have been so prevalent. It is as the influence germ acted in the yeast acts in a lump of dough, which takes the dough and makes something of McCullough-Hill Wedding the wedding of Miss Anna Bell Hill and Thomas McCullough took place Wednesday evening, September 9 at the home of the groom's parents, Mr and Mrs Thomas McCullough. 2 Spencer place, Mrs Thomas McCullough, stoooer Christes McCullough I "Love You Truly."
