WILL NOMINATION OF CONKLIN FOR THE SUPREME COURT BENCH SETTLE MATTER OF DUAL LEADERSHIP IN THE 21st A. D.
At the Republican Judicial, Convention of the First Judicial District, which includes Manhattan and the Bronx held September 21 in one of the nominees for Justice of the Supreme Court was Robert Cenkil, Republican Leader on the First A.D. who, ignoring of the most esteemed leader, Charles W. B. Cenkil led to Mitchell being nominated to Cenkil for leadership at the pro-monetary of executive members of the court committee for the 21st election.
Assistant Attorney General of the State of New York, in charge of the New York City office.
The final nomination is looked upon in nine quarters as a means by which the overall satisfaction with regard to Mr. Cenkil's attitude toward his colored associate leader may be quieted.
The nomination is that the leader will find the proper thing to do to abdicate from the local position and thus make available for a leader to be selected who is more in sympathy with the Negro voters of the district and willing to accord fuller recognition to the man selected as colored associate leader.
It pointed out that the County Executive Committee adopted a resolution providing that the 19th and 21st Assembly Districts have colored associate bodies and that the 19th is provided for through the selection of Collector Charles W. Adelson and Mrs. Thely Freeman, but that in the 21st the race is formed of effective representation through the attitude of Lander Gonklin, which consistently refuses to recognize cooperate with 'Associate Leader Lander', who was chosen by the colored members of the county committee two years ago, and who is expected to be again this year. The colored group which is led by Assemblyman John C. Hawkins, is affiliated with the Conklin committee sets up the claim that it is more than the Mitchell group by 40 votes, but it is charged Hawkins' faction determinedly to enter into an amicable com-mit with its opponents so that a can be had on the question of strength.
other hand, the Mitchellites will in 31 to 55 votes, a majority voted to enter into a conference as the result as expressed in East Leader's of the Appomattox Club, 108 West 136th which is supporting Mitchell, a statement affirming their the Republican candidates, using a determination to do possible to bring success to can ticket at the November development of interest is action taken by George W. made an independent campe of the Aldermanic nomination a regular party nominee.

Girl Tries Drowning, Finding World, Men, Like 'Den of Beasts' Note Pinned To Dress Said 'Can't Get Work Without Men Getting Fresh'
Writing a note in which she said she was "tired of everything" that a girl can't get work without men getting fresh," and that "it's just like being in a den of beasts," Edith Johnson, 19, a young Philadelphiaian, tried to end her life by grooming in Central Park lake on Tuesday morning, about 10 o'clock.
The girl's dress bouyed her up, however, and Policeman John C McGraeff, Arsenal station, saw her floating in the water. He borrowed a rowboat and brought her to shore. Pinched to her dress was a note, which read as follows:
"All my life I have had trouble, the cause of which I don't know. I do know that I am tired of everything. One can't get work without the men getting fresh. Then they have the nerve to get mad because you don't fall for that stuff. It's just like being in a den of beasts. No one ever takes the girl's word. It's getting worse every day."
Dr Totora of Harlem Hospital responded to the ambulance call and took the girl to Harlem Hospital where she quickly recovered. The Social Service Bureau of Bellevue and Allied Hospitals interested it in finding work for Miss Johnson who it appears, was without a job.
She had been occupying a furnished room in the apartment of Mrs Mary Baker. 241 West 110th street having come to the city from Philadelphia a few months ago, and was 19 years old. Mrs Baker stated that Miss Johnson was a girl who talked very little and no one in her home had learned anything of her affairs except that the young man to whom she was engaged had died and that she came to this city in hope of wearing his loss off her mind.
The elevator girl stated that Mrs Johnson left the building Tuesday morning. There had been no suspicion of her being troubled in mind up to that time. But before the noon hour, police came to the house and reported that she had been taken from the lake and sent to Harlem Hospital
North Carolina White Woman Is Jailed On Charge of Inciting Mob To Lynching
---
Ashville, N.C.—For the first time in the South's history, a white woman, Mrs G T Rollus, has been arrested and jailed on a charge of inciting to not and conspiracy, when she correlated a petition urging white men of this city to go to Charlotte and take from the Meklenburg County jail *Alen Mansel* a Negro boy, who was removed from the Bumcobie County jail—and taken to Charlotte for safe keeping. Mansel was alleged to have attacked a white woman on Sunset Mountain, and a mob of whites attempted to take him from the Bumcobie County jail *Joshoff F. M Mansel* however had removed Mansel to Charlotte and so the mob that stormed the jail failed. Candid are intended pres. When the white woman, Mrs Rollus, was nailed it was reported that a crowd of men was forming to rescue her. But the local company of the North Carolina National Guard and every city and county officer were on guard, and remained on guard until it was definitely ascertained that the mob had given up thought of attacking the fail. In the meantime the Bumcobie County Grand jury has returned true
NEGRO PHYSICIANS PURCHASE BRUNOR'S SANITARIUM

HUMAN BRUTE WHO VICTIMIZED WOMEN IN TOILS OF LAW Rape and Robbery Followed Luring Away To Imaginary Attractive Jobs
After deceiving at least eight young women and girls into secluded section of the Bronx on the pretext of taking them to find attractive employment and then raping and robbing them of whatever money they had, Stanley Walker, 12 said to have come from Paducah, Ky., was at last apprehended and arrested on September 12 and held by Magistrate Drever in the West Farm Court in $20,000 bail to the Bronx County Criminal Court for a hearing on September 30.
In the meantime the grand jury was given the case by District Attorney John F. McGeechan, and several of the victims of the human beast testified as to their experience. As a result several indictments have been returned against him, the first one of which was based on charges made by Miss Wilde Grierson, 27, of 10 East 11st street, who about the middle of August, was taken by Walker to a patch of woods beyond 242nd street Bronx where she was first raped by the man, and then robbed of her pocketbook, containing $12. She was left in the woods unconscious and at several hours before she was able to get in communication with the police. In the meantime, Walker continued his operations. His Nemesis was a girl from West 135th street whose name is being withheld for the pres-
bills against thirty men who were all alleged to have been in the mob that wanted to lynch Mansel. The shepherd and his deputies immediately began rounding up the men, moving secretly and retaining to describe the names of those wanted until the arrests had been made. Each one was held on bail of $2,500, and only a few were able to supply it.
Mrs. Rollins was unable to furnish bonds for $1,500 and so she stayed in jail.
Many of Ashley must prevent citizen citizens want before the grand jury and gave testimony which resulted in indictments against the thieves alleged members of the mob. Prof. Chas. H. Moore of Greenboro, whose spelling in vacation in Minneapolis, has written his comment on this development as follows. This shows how the Old North State handles the mob. Just to think of investigating a white woman for meeting a mob? Other Southern states don't even try to imprison a white man for such a crime. The investigation in Mississippi ordered by the judge in the case of the second holocaust of the Nazi will only amount to a farce. Mark what I say.
ent, who, when attacked, put up such a fight that the fire was unable to accomplish any improvement in the taking of her pocketbook which contained only 12 cents and her apartment keys. The girl, however, was left with several ribs broken, and with a throat torn and lacerated from the clutches of the lustful witch. When she was finally able to make her way by crawling a few paces at a time from the woods where the attack occurred she reached a house occupied by a white family, who took her in and gave her such aid and assistance as was possible. They called the police and furnished her with money for carfare. When Walker was arrested, just a short while after, from the description she furnished, the keys to her apartment were found in his pocket. The case was called Wednesday morning, September 30, in the Brooke County Court at Tremont and Arthur avenues, but because of the absence of an important witness, it was laid over to October 6. The women who were victimized by this brute urge that girls and women take warning from their experience and refuse to be led away by unknown men who gibly promise advantageous and lucrative jobs.
Justice Glennon Denies Motion To Have Primary Election In 21st Set Aside
Justice Edward I. Glennon on the Appellate Division of the Supreme Court on Tuesday, September 29, denied the motion of Gordon Dingle, a counsel to George W. Harris, to have the primary election in the 21st Aldermann district set aside. Mr. Dingle was contesting the designation of Theodore B. Smith, Republican design for alderman on the grounds that fraud had been discovered in connection with some of the ballots. He had previously half some of the ballots opened and these failed to constitute his claims. Mr. Dingle asked for an adjournment to later in the week but the Board of Elections asked that the decision be rendered at once so that they could order the ballots for the November election printed. As Mr. Harris was unable to produce the evidence on which he based his charge of fraud the justice ordered the actor dismissed.

LOCAL AND FEDERAL SEGREGATION STIRS BROOKLYN CITIZENS Court Action To Be Taken Against Local Theatre; Lynching Scored
A monster mass meeting of protest against local and federal segregation and the renewed lynchings was held by the Brooklyn Branch of the National Equal Rights League, Rev T. S. Harten, president, Sunday afternoon in the Holy Trinity Baptist Church, Parkland and, Franklin avenues, with attorneys Clayton French of New York presiding. Mr. French who is an Assistant Attorney General of New York State was presented by Rev Harten. Mr. French said the first blow for freedom in America was struck by a colored man, Crispus Attucks who died that every American might be free
Monroe Trotter Speaks
The next speaker was William Monroe Frother of Boston, editor of the Guardian, and national correspondent (secretary) of the League He cited the Declaration of Independence to show that the government should provide life protection, political liberty and equality of rights and privileges, the failure to do which necessitated solid organization of the colored race to force action to secure these things for all. He pointed out unchanging, southern disfranchisement, pin crow cars and segregation, denial of service in places of public accommodation and resorts as glaring defensals of protection liberty and equality. These were the cries, he said, which will be taken up at the national race convention to be held by the League.
The next address was by Rev. Harten who told his audience that he never thought of his color, but did think of his manhood and wanted the right to live and equal opportunity politically, educationally and the right to enjoy all places of public pleasure. After several persons had told of the refusal of the management of the Apollo Theatre, Brooklyn street and Throop avenue Brooklyn to sell them seats on the main floor, he declared that the case will be taken to the courts and that if any judges show color prejudice they will be opposed at the ballot box.
Daylight Lynchings
Rev Hartton issued the big audience to fever heat by his demonstration of recent brutal lawhouses perpetrated in the daytime and at which photography were taken. He deplored the fact that under Caitlin Good the President of the U. N. A. the same commission continues since hand and the flag the case died to does not protect. He paid his respects to prejudiced whites and Ku Klux Klan of Staten Island, and urged the Police Commissioner to replace the guards with colored war veterans if the police were not to be trusted. He declared that the Administration was

Insulted On Subway, Colored Woman Seizes White Man And When Refused Aid By Trainmen, Arrests Insulter
Mrs. Byrd Harris, Welfare Department Inspector, Protects Herself From Advances On Train and Takes Offender To Station House After Subway Employes Refuse Help
MAGISTRATE WEIL HEARS CASE, WITH EVIDENCE BY ACCUSER POSITIVELY IDENTIFYING EDWARD ARONS AS OFFENDER, BUT CASE IS DISMISSED BY JUDGE
Man Is Said To Be Son-In-Law Of a Director of Compensation Bureau—Based Decision On Alleged High Standing Of Arons—What Would Judge Have Done In Case Of White Woman and Colored Man?
Displaying courage and determination of unusual quality, Mrs. Byrd Robinson Harris of 169 West 130th street, seized Edward Arons, a white man living some-wheres in The Bronx, and forcibly propelled him from a Lenox avenue subway train going south, and did not stop until she had turned him over to a police officer on the charge of attempting lewd and indecent familiarities upon her person while the two were crowded close together by the subway crowd.
Getting on board the subway train at Lenox avenue and 125th street, en route to her daily duty as an inspector in the Department of Public Welfare under Commissioner Bird S Coler, on Wednesday morning, September 23, Mrs. Harris found the train crowded Arons, who said he had boarded the train at 149th street, was in close proximity to Mrs. Harris, and to her consternation as alleged in her complaint began using his hands upon her person in a manner that was objectionable in the extreme and which caused her deep embarrassment and humiliation.
As the man's actions were continued charged Mrs. Harris, she finally became desperate and seized the hand of the man she accused as offending her. This man proved to be Arons the son-in-law of James Donoline said to be a director of the State Compensation Bureau.
Makes Arrest Herself
When the train reached Times Square, Mrs. Harris urged Arons out of the train and appealed to subway guard to call an officer. The guard refused to do so, telling her that she would find one further up the platform. Other guards were so re-entrant, and the cashier in the change booth was no exception, telling Mrs. Harris that an officer would be found up on the street. Determined to carry out her purpose, the outraged woman escorted the man to the street level and there found a traffic cop who, after hearing the story called another policeman who placed Arons under arrest.
Taken to the 7th Precinct station house, at 187th West 30th street, the white man was paroled in custody of

Argument In Speakeasy Ends In Street Killing Man Shot 4 Times; A Woman Pedestrian Wounded In Right Foot
Gun toting and booch drinking added two more victims to their toll at 4 10 a.m. Monday morning when a woman and a man were shot in Fifth avenue between 133d and 134th streets. The assistant was caught by Patrolman Arthur Brushane who was just around the corner in 134th street at the time the first shot was fired. Brushane Reddick, 27, whose address was given as 1380 Seventh avenue, was shot four times in the body. One of the bullets entered his breast near the heart and he died almost instantly. A woman pedestrian named Madeline Austin received a stray bullet in her right foot. She was given medical attention at the Harlem Hospital by Dr. Torolta and gave her address as a roomer at 299 Seventh avenue. John Howers, 33 of 32 West 133rd street was arrested by Patrolman Brushane and is being held for the murder of Reddick. It is alleged that prior to the killing Howers went to an apartment on the east side of 133rd avenue in the same block and hanged on the door until he had forced the occupant of the room to open. Then a dispute followed. Using the apartment it reported that Bowers crossed the street and went down into a speakeasy. The stairman and the killer later emerged from the speakeasy in a heated argument which resulted in the murder of Reddick.

When the train reached Times Square, Mrs Harris urged Arons out of the train and appealed to subway guard to call an officer. The guard refused to do so, telling her that she would find one further up the platform. Other guards were ao recalcitrant, and the cashier in the change booth was no exception, telling Mrs Harris that an officer would be found up on the street. Determined to carry out her purpose, the outraged woman ssorted the man to the street level and there found a traffic cop, who, after hearing the story called another policeman who placed Arons under arrest. Taken to the 7th Precinct station house, at 138th West 30th street, the white man was paroled in custody of his father in law, for appearance in Jefferson Market Court before Judge Edward Weil on Friday, September
A Flagrant Decision
And then came what Mrs. Harris indignantly characterized as a fragrant miscarriage of justice, for after hearing her evidence and after the had positively and unequivocally identified Arons as the man who had wantonly and shamelessly resulted and mistreated her Judge Weil declared that because of the crowd on the train, and because of the alleged respectability and good character of the defendant he would dismiss the case. Then Arons walked out of the court room a free man with no shadow on his "good name."
Mrs. Harris whose mother Mrs. Alice E. Robinson lives in Pittsburgh is one of the most capable of the attaches of Commissioner Coler, and is the mother of a talented and pretty little 5-year old daughter. She possesses a sterling and unblessed character, and was actuated in her actions in this case by a determination to do something to save other girls younger and more unused to life harder contacts, from similar experiences.
Sin later Influences
Speaking of the action of Judge Well in dismissing this case Miss Harris declared that in her opinion there were two injustices, slurber and dangerous that controlled in the matter. One was that the man she accused had through his father in law, reputed powerful connections, and the other was that it was a case of a white man insulting a polored woman.
She declared in court that it the races had been reversed at a Negro had been accused by a white woman - not only would there have been every effort made to get a police officer, but odds were largely in favor of the man being severely mishandled before an officer could get him.
A strong protest will be made to Judge Edward Weil, who lives at 234 East 83rd street.
Observers of the bootlegging situation in Harlem are commenting on what they term the brigandish appearance of the man who are being employed as window lookouts by the bootleggers in their various booze dispensing places. It is alleged that the men employed in this capacity are of a type that gives them the appearance of highwymen—ready at any moment for any law-breakin or law-defying activity.
The padlocking method being used by the Federal Attorney, to which great publicity is being given, does not appear to be apparently effective at the case with the same method pursued by former Federal Attorney Hayward: "The present padlocking injunctions seem to be of the most temporary nature, as after being in effect for 30 or 90 days, or six or twelve months, the same men resume bootlegging operations usually at the same place. In few instances do they find it necessary to change location. When this is done as a rule, it is because the bootlegger is reentering business before the expiration of the injunction period.
"A case in point is that of the Cotton Club, located at 142nd street and Lenox Avenue, which was closed by U. S. Attorney Buckner a short while back. The period for which the injunction was issued has passed, and it is asserted that this.Cotton Club is to open and run in the same manner as before. A well authenticated statement is to the effect that one of the waiters in this same club picked up more than $90 in tips in less than a week's time, and this, it is said, would have been impossible except for the illegal handling of alcoholic liquors.
Clubs Defy Law
A similar condition is said to obtain in the cases of, two Seventh Avenue night clubs or cabarets—Connie's Inn and the Comedy Club. The first named, refused a dancing license, continued its operations just the same, and the latter, raided and supposed to be closed, with a police officer stationed in the place, is again opened, the only concession being a change of name and an alleged change of management. It is noted also that many of the stores on Lenox Avenue which housed the most notorious and disreputable of the camouflaged liquor places, are again being occupied by bootleggers, who are boldly dispensing their wares to a thirsty clientele.
Originally, the injunctions secured by Col. Hayward contained a perpetual injunction clause which barred the individual named from engaging in the sale of liquor at any time in the future or in any place in the United States. The injunctions given nowadays seem not to carry this restraining clause, or if it does, appears to be flagrantly ignored.

SANFORD'S DEPARTMENT STORE VENTURE IN HARLEM ATTRACTING ATTENTION OF MERCHANDIZING FIRMS ON 125th STREET
NEGRO CONTRACTOR BUILDING FOUNDATION FOR THE $10,000,000 PRESBYTERIAN HOSPITAL GROUP
Business men, especially the retail storekeepers on 125th street, are watching with unusual interest the progress of Sanford's the new department
If you want to see and interesting sight you should go up to the Columbia-Presbyterian Medical Center, now under construction on a twenty-five acre plot overlooking the Hudson River, between 165th and 168th streets. There, you will see a large group of colored men engaged in putting in the foundations under supervision of colored foremen and working for a colored contractor. The building world was surprised early this summer to learn that the contract for the foundation of the Hospital Center had been let to the Irving Fireproof Centering Co., a colored company of which Samuel A. Irving is the founder and head As the Columbia-Presbyterian Medical Center is the largest and most important building project now under construction in New York, several hundred contractors sent in bids.
Was Lowest Blddert
Marc Eldritz and Sons, builders of 41 East 42nd street, are the general contractors and they sublet much of the work to other contractors. The Irving Fireproof Centering Co. was the successful bidder for the foundation work and began operations tenteen weeks ago. The buildings to be included in the Center are the Presbyterian and Columbia Medical School, the State Psychiatric Institute and Hospital, the Neurological Institute, Babies Hospital, Sloane Hospital for Women, Vanderbilt Clinic, and the Presbyterian Hospital School for Nursing. These buildings contain over 23,000,000 cubic feet, or one and a half times the space in the Woolworth Building. According to Mr Irving, more concrete is being used in the foundation of this group of buildings than has ever been used before in a single building operation. When completed the entire project will cost upwards to $15,000,000, exclusive of the value of the land.
Irving In Personal Charge
Mr Irving, who personally directs the foundation construction, is assis ed by a staff which includes a civil engineer, a timkeeper, two colored foremen and two white foremen. Several times since he began work on this job, he has employed upwards to 300 men and his payroll has reached $10,000 weekly. A tunnel, running from Broadway to Fort Washington avenues, beneath the building, is included as a part of the foundation. An idea of the magnitude of the job may be gained from the fact that the foundation alone will require more than six months to complete.
Samuel Irving has been connected with the building trade since he arrived in this country from the West Indies 21 years ago. For a while no worked at the carpenter's trade. He later became connected with a foundation construction company and added a large number of white mechanics. He helped put in the foundations of such buildings as Gimbel's, Loew's State Theatre, and several other Broadway theatres and public buildings.
Started As Small Contractor
He came to the conclusion a few years ago that he could make money for himself as a contractor since he was able to make it for others. His capital was comparatively small and he found difficulty in securing money for his construction work, especially from among people of his own race. When he was preparing to send in his bid for the hospital job, Mr. Freving needed $10,000 for a bond and other expenses. He says he sought financial assistance from several leading Negro business men and social organizations. All turned him down and he alleges that several tried to discourage him from undertaking such a big project. He was compelled to get the money he needed from white friends.
His civil engineer is William H. Damnoud, one of the first colored graduates of the University of Pennsylvania and who for years was teacher of mathematics and science at Paul Quinn College, Waco, Texas and later at Wolverforce University. Mr. Damnoud was an engineer for the Michigan Central Railroad for seven years.
Strong Union Man
All the mechanics employed by Mr.
store opened recently at 135th street and Seventh avenue. The success of Sanford's may mean a radical change in the attitude of the 125th street merchants toward their Negro customers.
TOR BUILDING
OR THE $10,000,000
HOSPITAL GROUP
Irving are union men and he is a firm believer in trade unions. While union organizations have discriminated against the Negro in the past, the Negro mechanic now has a reasonably fair chance in the unions, says Mr. Irving.
He is also of the opinion that Negroes should go in more for the building trades. They are, he says, the largest industries in America and if a man can do the work, he will be given a chance.
The head of the Irving Fireproof Centering Company is a stocky man about 45 years of age, of medium height. He is much liked by his men, who say that he is a born leader. The Marc Eidutl Company who knew of his work before he got this job, also speak highly of his ability.

$55,000 Dormitory Dedicated at Paine College, Augusta
Epworth Leaguers of White M. E. Church, South, Give Funds For Structure BISHOP WILLIAMS SPOKE Other Buildings Now Being Erected, With Others To Be Constructed Soon
Augusta, Ga., -The opening last week of the forty second annual session of Paine College in this city was marked by the dedication of a hansome and commodious men's dormitory, erected for the school by the Board of Missions of the Methodist Episcopal Church, South. The $55,000 expended in the erection of the building was contributed for this purpose by the Epworth League young people of the Southern Methodist Church and the building is called Epworth Hall in their honor.
Bishop R. S. Williams, of the Colored Methodist Church, and Dr E. B. Chappell, Sunday school secretary of the M. E. Church, South, were the principal speakers at the dedication, which was attended by a number of distinguished representatives of the two denominations.
Epworth Hall is a companion to Bennett Hall, a girl's dormitory erected some years ago by the missionary women of the M E. Church, South, and recently remolted at the cost of $15,000. The same group is erecting at present a building to house the departments of economics and domestic science, which will cost approximately $45,000.
Dr J W Perry secretary of the Board of Missions of the M E Church, South, is working on plaques for a new science building to cost $75,000.

The institution is doing a grade college work and prepares for entry into the leading universities of the county.
Pame College is a notable illustration of cooperation between white and colored people of the South, being operated by the M. F. Church, South, and the C. M.-E. Church, through a joint board of trustees. It has fitted him dreets of graduates for jobs of honor and usefulness, many of them as preachers and teachers or in other positions of leadership

Statistics gathered by the Harlem Board of Commerce show that $24,000,000 was spent last year in Harlem stores on 125th street and in that vicinity. Half of this amount, it is estimated, was spent by colored people. But in the past the colored customers have been given little or not attention, or recognition for their patronage. Except as porters, there are no col-
ored employees in the 125th street stores, and some of them have frankly stated that they have all the colored trade they want. In their advertising they have completely ignored the residents of the section above 125th street. Sanford's was established by a main
NEGRO CAVALRY IN U. S. ARMY TURNED INTO LABOR ORGANIZATI'N Denied Military Training And Assigned To Menial Duties In Army School
The gradual shifting of the colored regiments of the United States Army from regular fighting units into labor organizations is seen in the present status of the United Cavalry, stationed at Fort Riley, Kansas. With the exception of the non-combat missioned officers and a few company clerks, the men of this regiment are called upon to do all the common labor necessary at the Army's Calvary School at Fort Riley, instead of being given the military training contemplated for cavalry commands.
It is alleged that this condition is commonly known throughout the service and that it has developed as a result of a persistent effort on part of southern raised men who have become officers in the army, and who want the negro soldier diverted of all opportunity for the winning of distinction and honor as a fighting machine.
Military Training Withheld.
It is conceded that the labor required at the cavalry school is a necessary part of the program, but it is pointed out that to require trained soldiers for this detail is unnecessary since men can be enlisted for this special duty, or by making enlistment for Fort Riley elective with the recruits. Men who enlist expecting to receive military training are forced by the existing conditions to submit to military, hard labor instead.
The unfairness of such a procedure it is asserted, is shown also in the fact that the history of the Negro as a soldier is in the hands of these men, who are writing a record through the use of a pick and shovel instead of sabe and carbine.
The charge is made that this condition was brought about through the naming as Chief of Calvary in the United States Army of officers who are not in sympathy with the race. This has become notorious) true since the days of Woodrow Wilson. In the Philippines, China and Mexico, the Negro troops won gallant honors, but the Wilsonian appointees in the army have gradually come into direct command and control of military matters, and there has been a consistent and successful effort to change the Negro in the army from a hero in the fighting field to a steed and horse raugler. It is believed that if a Chief of Calvary is selected from these officers who are in sympathy with the race, the Negro regiments, both infantry and cavalry
Peter Johnson, Not David, Was Father Of Henry Lincoln Johnson
Dr. David Johnson Disson of Bannell, S. C. a kinsman of the state Col Henry, Lincoln Johnson when, at the time of his sudden death on September 10, was a member of the National Republican Committee from Georgia, writes to correct the Age in regard to the family of Col Johnson.
In the account of his death published in The Age, it was stated that the parents of the deceased were David Johnson, brickmason and budding contractor; and Sarah, his wife. This was an error, as David was Henry Lincoln's mother, brother to Peter Johnson, black smith and wheelwright, and Peter and his wife Martha Ann, were Col Johnson's parents.
Dr. Disson writes also that Col Johnson's youngest son is named Peter Douglas Johnson, for his grandfather instead of David Douglas as stated in The Age story.
experienced in retail trade who has the idea that a business will prosper in this neighborhood if its customers are shown the same courtesies as the customers in the larger stores down town. His stock is of the best quality and at nominal prices. He employs a complete staff of 'colored salesgirls, who are courteous to all who come in, even if they do not 'care to purchase anything at the time. Should the 135th street store continue successful, it is thought that many of the stores on 125th street will adopt a similar policy toward the colored trade, even to giving employment to capable colored men and women.

Announcement, was made recently that C. J. Newkirk, a Harleen Negro, has been promoted to the position of assistant sales manager of the Yorkshire Mercantile Corp. of 34 East 12th street, manufacturers of knit outer wear and glove-silk undergarments for ladies.

College of The City Of New York Offers Rare Opportunity Free Educational Facilities Available To Harlem's Residents OLD WORLD UNIVERSITY Located On Washington Hts. At 138th-140th Streets, Established In 1848
The Age is of the opinion that many Negroes of New York do not know, and consequently do not take full advantage of the free educational opportunities this city offers. The following is an article published in the September number of Gas Logic, which tells something of the beauty and the history of the College of The City of New York, located within ten minutes of Harlem.
AN OLD WORLD UNIVERSITY.
The College of the City of New York is one of the municipality's proudest monuments to its life, thought and achievement. The visitor from out of town, or even the local inhabitant from any of the far corners of the greater city, finds himself suddenly in the midst of its notable group of buildings, cannot fail to be deeply impressed by their beauty, dignity and the Old World atmosphere that pervades the tranquil inner spaces; and the association of ideas with the stored educational centers of Europe at once comes to mind. This impression is inevitable with the observant person, who, driving either up or down Convent avenue, after passing under the arch at either 138th or 140th street, unexpectedly finds himself on the heart of this student center. The avenue bisects it from North to South.
The group, all an collegiate Gothic style, is gray white stone with terra cotta ornament McKim, Mead and White were the architects, and it is said that the late St. Stanford. White, designer, also of the Madison Square, took rest for flying Diana, and the Herald Building at Herald Square, took special interest in this splendid architectural gesture of the city to education, which built around a central plaza, forms an unusually attractive group. And, as time goes on, mellowed by weather and garmented by faithful ivy, it assumes more and more the cloistered scholastic aspect, while the city hems it about with huge, modern monsters of construction. But, it will be long years, perhaps, before its sweeping outlook to the east, from its curving height, will be obstructed. The location of the College as on Washington Helgts, between 1838 and 1400 streets and Amsterdam avenue and St. Nicholas. Tertzer Standing on air elevation midway between the Hudson and Harlem Rivers, the buildings rise immediately above St Nicholas Park, which lies about, them to the north and east, and give what is considered a permanently unobstructed view, over a large part of the city.
VISIBLE OVER WIDE AREA
Surmounting an arch of beauty on the terrace, the tower, thrusting itself skyward, can be seen in Long Island, New Jersey and from elevations north of the Harlem. It has been the inspiration of Ernest Peixoto, the distinguished either but even admitting high artistic, craftsmanship, there are those who, never ture gazing at the structure, aver he did not do it full justice. Unquestionably, they held unconciously to the play of sunshine and shadow and the color and atmospheric effects of cloud and sky as a setting for the majestic pile. It is a big picture, under all conditions and from all angles.
This month, eighteen years ago, the College moved to the Heights from the building tenanted since it foundation, in 1849, at Twenty third street and Lexington avenue, and since there have been 5000 graduates Five buildings compose the new group—the Main Building, containing rooms for most of the departments of study, besides the Great Hall, the Library and executive offices. It occupies the crest above St. Nicholas avenue Towsend Harris Hall.

Most persons, through the great popularity of the concerts held, are more familiar with the State, with the college group. The National extending from Convent to American avenues between 136 and 150 was the gift of Adolph Lew. It was dedicated in May, 1915. It was planned not only to promote training and athletics in the City, but also for public assemblies in the City displeases. The land owned by it was transferred by the Park Department to the Co. seating capacity is 6000, with a room for 1500 more. The Athletic Field between 130 and 138th streets, with Convent access to the west contains a baseball cage, a football field, a fifth-of-a-meter running track, a four hundred foot straight away course and provision for char sports.
COLLEGE FOUNDED IN 1843
The college, of which Sidney Howard Mexex is president, humbly began in 1848, as the Free Academy, established by the board of Education by an act of the Legislature of May 9, 1847 and ratified by the city of June 9, 1847. The first class, graduating in July, 1853, included Isaac Burnham, founder of the international nursing house. The following year the Legislature empowered the institution to confer upon the graduates the use of legatee degrees and diplomas. Art and Science. The Free Academy arrived and in 1866 it became the college of the City of New York, subject to institution of the Regents of the University.
Duttinguished architects design the College group, but an influence was strongest in building the big university, endowing it with force, courage, pleasures and ideals was General A. Candler S. Webb, who was president from 1887 to 1902. He was both scholar and educer. There is an imposing bronze and of him in the Federal Uniform, the war of the Rebellion. The assertion tells that he was "Brigadier General U. S. A., commander of Philadelphia Brigade at Gettysburg, July 13, 1861." "A leader of men, for life or death at the age of twenty-eight! General Webb was mustered in with the great trade army in 1911.
The College is one of the greatest school workshops in the world. During 1924 it had enrolled in all sections 19,837 students. The technical divisions always has a large quota. The summer session, of which Dane W. R. was one of the work of the School landmarks in the city. The Commerce Building is the original structure in 23rd street, designed by James Renwick in 1847, and is one of the schools of Business and Civic Administration Nearly all of the special and advanced professional courses in business subjects are offered in the building in the Evening Session, because the place is convenient for city residents employed by day in Manhattan. Some of the courses in the School of Business and Civic Administration primarily for the benefit of municipal employees are conducted in rooms in the Municipal Building.

Women Launch New Organization To Stop Lynching
If one-colored man in the United States, Congress, backed up by the massed vote of Negroes of this country, were privileged to address that body and disobserve the nainous crime of lynching, the minds of those men would imbed be effected.
Those were the words uttered by J. Dalmus Steele at a mass meeting held in St. James Presbyterian Church, Monday evening, September 28. The meeting was held under the auspices of the Colored Women's Stop Lynching League of New York City, Mrs. Rosa Lamkin, chairman.
"Opening with prayer by the Rev Wm. Lloyd Jmes, pastor of the church, the hymn, 'Onward Christian Soldiers', was sung, followed by, introductory remarks by Mrs. Lamkin, who introduced as speakers of the evening, Rev W. L-Imes, John E. Robinson, J. Dalmus Steele, Chelveland G. Allen, Mrs E. Johnson, president of the Stop Lynching League, and Fred R. Moore of The New York Age, said that "Lynching is one of the most wicked sins in the world. It is the gossest outrage practiced in America, but don't forget that you have friends and sympathizers in many organizations and institutions who will be glad to aid you in your case."
"God will take care of you" was sung, then several other, speakers gave their opinions and suggestions, after which Mme. Barrier Houston sang three solos.
The last speaker was Mrs. Johnson who, in response to the words of encouragement uttered by the speakers of the evening, said: "We can do Do you think for one moment that white women would idly by and see their fathers and sons tarred, feathered, and burnt the stake? A thousand and no."
The officers of the Stop Lanching League are Mrs. E. F. Johnson, president; Mrs. Elizabeth Simmons, vice president; Mrs. Carrie J. Lloyd, secretary; Mrs. Mary Hopkins, treasurer.

Tuskegee, Institute, Ala.—Many sections of the country have had historical and/or agricultural farming during the past spring and summer. The conditions have been so艰苦 that it has been almost impossible to carry out this task. This patience, which is the greatest of people, who die their living out of the ground, has been out to a most severe test. "Never before, certainly not in recent years, have there been so many things that cause embarrassment to the people who are the primary producers of our country's wealth.
In nearly every section of the country, we have had one of the most severe droughts we have witnessed in the history of American Agriculture. In the War West and Central West, on the Atlantic Coast, and in the gulf states, there have been long and severe droughts, that made it very hard for farmers to get his crops planted, and later caused failures; in certain actions to an extent hitherto almost unknown. Those long, drawn out seasons of dry weather have not only discouraged this farmer, but in many instances he hesitates to make plans for his fall and winter crops. Many farmers will doubleshift up their hands in despair. But if we will simply think hard and make plans carefully for the future, we could in 1926, we ought to find ourselves in a better financial position than we are today.
The Drought Has Not Been An Unmixed Evil.
Although there will probably be a general shortage in corn, hay sweet potatoes and many other crops throughout the South, the dry spell will materially assisted farmers in their crop management, and there had been steady and generous rainfall, it would have been difficult to grow the cotton crops that will bring millions of dollars to the South, as the boll-weevil thrives during rain season.

Later Kennard and himself draw his revolver Seventh District Magistrate Nexley of the 16th Pecetet in 135th street approached him and made an arrest. Kennard was put under additional bounty of $5,000 for possession of a revolver
Sergeant Neely was supervising panight, and just at the time that he was to go off duty a man came to him and reported that some fellow had shot at another man in 144th street in the block between Seventh and Eighth avenues and was flourishing the gun in the streets, playing bad man Sergeant Neely went to the scene of the shooting where the man accused of discharging the pistol was pointed out to him. The sergeant drew his service revolver and ordered the man to put up his hands, but instead, Kennard reached for his gun and was drawing it from the front of his trousers where it was stuck in the waistband, when Sergeant Neely brought his night stick into play grazed the hand that was drawing the pistol and after a sparted encounter, Sergeant Neely subdued the gun-toler and gamed possession of the revolver which 45 caliber U S Loll. It contained five unexploded cartridges and one discharged knife. Kennard was identified by Williams as the man who shot at him and Police Reserve Cyril Adams, also identified Kennard.

to adjust the farming programs for the next few months so as to increase the range of any of the different soils of the long dry, spell that would necessitate farmers toward a more profitable condition. If the clear, and should, be recognized by farmers everywhere, whenever there has been a general dry spell, after the application of large quantities of commercial fertilizer, the crop on the land has not been able to use the fertilizer. This fertilizer is in the soil and is just so many dollars that should, will be washed away, and wasted during the fall and winter if crops are not planted to use the same.
Select Crops With Care
The crops, to be planted will have to be selected with an eye to their comparative value. The farmer should select a crop that will not only use the fertilizer left in the soil, but will use it to better advantage than any other crop, and at the same time should find a market for itself when it shall have been produced. He should also keep in mind his probable shortage in food and feed stuffs for himself and his farm animals. It will be difficult for any system of farming to be successful over a long period of time if it does not provide for diversification to an extent that certain food and feed crops are grown in the medium section will be grown to an extent that he will need them for his supply.
Crops To Plant
Keeping in mind the section in which the farm is located—soil types, nearness to market, and general climatic conditions, I would suggest that farmers sought to plant large quantities of fall grains Oats, wheat, rye and barley grow in almost every section of the South. They provide feed for stock and food for farm animals. They will also provide grazing for stock during winter and early spring. Wine grapes fetch, clover and alfalfa should be grown wherever land will produce the same. These plants not only provide feed for animals but build up the soil. Grow plenty of vegetables for home use and some to sell. Grow these throughout the whole year. Cabbage, onions, beets, lettuce, collards, kohl rab, Irish potatoes, English peas asparagus, tomatoes, and many other plants can be grown in fall and winter. They make the family healthy and reduce expenses. English peas asparagus, pepper, lip, plack our work, economize, wherever possible to do so, and things will brighten up as the months roll around.

Monrovia Liberia—This flag (the flag of Liberia) means more to the Negro than any other flag which fires on the breezes of the world. This flag is the emblem of Public Instruction for the Republic of Liberia, in an address before the students of Monrovia College at the annual Flag Day exercises. Flag. Day in Liberia is a holiday by special proclamation. The flag with the Lone Star is displayed on the wall of the building through out the Republic. Even then they up in the interior fly it from the roots of their council houses. The celebration at Monrovia College was as stirring as any similar event the world over could be.
The eagerness with which the students carried every word of the speakers, their ready appreciation for the vivid word pictures of Chief Justice F. E. R. Johnson in describing the valorous deeds of the early pio-
Woman Burns Hands In Mangle At Good Housekeeping Inst: Was Instructing New Girl How To Operate; May Lose One Hand
Mrs Mary Washington, 314 West 127th street, employee of the Good Housekeeping Institute, suffered severe burns on both hands which they were caught in an electric mangle which she was instucting a new girl to operate in the laundry Wednesday morning, September 23.
The flesh was burned off the back of both hands, down to the bones, and her physician fears that one of them will have to be amputated.
The accident occurred while Mrs. Washington was instructing a young woman, who had been recently employed, on the machine which the new girl was to work.
While Mrs. Washington was smoothing out a garment on the mangle and getting ready, the girl touched the lever of the mangle which let down the hot iron roller on Mrs. Washington. As the heavy hot roller turned over on her hands Mrs. Washington screamed, but the young woman being excited did not have the presence of mind to stop the machine and there was no one else near at the time.
When Mrs. Washington succeeded in pulling he hands out of the mangle, they had been cooked to the bone.
The institute physician gave her first aid and she was sent home when she refused to go to the hospital. The foreland of the institute instructed Mrs. Washington to remain at home until her hands were well and promised her full pay in the meantime.

The condition of the national alms by choice was the most "vmarkable parable" of the past, of more than one American present. At a college in the States it would be called a glee club. In feeling their singing is equal to the singing of our Spirituals, and in vigor they surpass the French with their famous Marsseillaste. "All Hail, Liberal!" is more difficult than any of them. Mrs. R S Freeman, prominent club woman and social worker, commended Bishop W. Sampson Brooks in his efforts to establish in Liberia a strong industrial college.

Church Activities In Greater New York
There were inspiring services at Rendell with a spendid attendance throughout the day. Rev. Manoney, the pastor, spoke on Faithfulness in little things, taken from the text found in St. Luke 16:10. His discourse was unequivocal and he answered the fact that we cannot accomplish anything or any task if we do not pay attention to detail how so many of us are left standing on the highway of life because we reach for the stars while we trample under foot many precious jewels and will never receive the paundre "Because thou hast been faithful to us, and will never many." One new member visited with the church, Mrs. Alberta J. Wright, 164 West 143rd street, Mr. Swinton united with us as the previous Sunday.
At the evening service the sermon was no less impressive. The theme, "The Great Salvation," was taken from Hebrew 2.3: "How shall we escape the neglect so great salvation?" The Christian Endeavor at 7 o'clock was in advance. The school was interesting and discussed a length. The topic for next Sunday will be "How can our Society benefit our community?" Matthew 5:124
The Sunday School is steadily growing and all parents and friends of the church are urgently asked to have their children in regular attendance at the school at 1 o'clock.
All members and friends are asked to attend the children's program on Friday, October 2, under the leadership of Mrs Belle Phillips and others.

Rev. A. C. Garner was in charge of services all day last Sunday. His vigor and complete recovery pleased his people greatly. The church laid its own cornerstone—replacing the old one left by the Swedes two years ago. In the morning Dr. Garner preached from Ephesus 2:10-20, on the theme "Jesus Christ the Chief Corner stone." The sermon was powerful and interesting and at its close the immediate appeal of the minister resulted in three persons uniting with the church Mrs. Beulah Lewis, 320 West 139th street; Musz Alice M. Calhoun, 44 Bradhurst avenue and Mrs. Nanny C. Thomas, 672 St. Nicholas avenue. The music of the choir and three special regulations by the Dixie Jubilee Singers were also performed. Eleastine the ceremonial stone was done in a prayer by Rev. Calvin Lane.
The afternoon service was a large and most impressive one, being in charge of the Most Worshipful Grand Lodge of Free and Accepted Masons, Prince Hall, of the State of New York. The Most Worshipful Grand Master was Joseph Sullivan of Troy, N. Y. and the Right Worshipful Grand Secretary was Arthur A. Schomburg of New York City. The ceremony for laying the cornerstone was the most beautiful the ceremony for laying the foundation made profound impression in its silent and dignified march from the temple at 155th street to Grace Church, 8th avenue and 139th street. All who saw the parade could but admire and praise. The service in the church was short and consisted of devotions and an address by Rev A. C. Garner. The entire service was over in an hour. The lady ushers handling the collection, each escorted by a Knight, were Mrs. Braithwaite, Mrs P. Christian, Miss Stephanie Davis, Miss Eleanor Bates, Mrs M. Chiles, Mrs N. C.

First Emmanuel Church
At the 10 o'clock services Sunday Pastor Golden preached from the following text: "For what is a man profited, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul? or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul?" St. Matthew 16:26. Themet "Individual achievement and soul value."
Pastor Bolden said: Our Lord Jesus the Eminemau when He had commanded His apostles and disciples to deny themselves, take up their cross and follow Him, perceived that this attitude on the part of His disciples would probably cost them their physical lives. He declared to them a truth never before heard, for He said unto them, "Whosoever shall save his life shall lose it, and whosoever shall lose his life for My sake shall find it!" This new thought upon achievement and the value of life, was and is now in contradiction to the struggle for the Christian faith test. There is also an an idea in this teaching that human existence is invalidated and that the individual comes into reality and life through losing the human nature in the love of God through Jesus Christ. Our Lord the Eminemau asked these questions: "For what is a man profited if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul."
These questions have stirred think-

ers of every age to seek their full meaning and to attempt to circumvent the overwhelming truth of the false and truth values in contrast. To day we are being impressed with the idea that there is an international or world soul, a personal and face soul, as well as a community and individual soul. And that the factors or elements that got to make up these soul conceptions each and of them These elements each and of them insolvibility and the will, with its various manifestations and lines of thought and feeling that radiate from these principles through the corporate body, the mind. The soul therefore seems to be incorporial moral nature, whether that be universal, racial, national, community or individual. The soul, in the light of our Lord the Emmanuclai talk about it, is immortal, sensitive, intelligent and accountable. Therefore the soul may be designated as a person that can accomplish things, and is bound by certain definite obligations and has a duty to perform as to humanity.
An individual person's every act and thought for good will or ill not only affects, but becometh a part of the soul's reality. The value. The value of the soul according to the question and implied declaration of our Lord the Emmanuel is greater than all of the culture, argument of wealth, and the glory of the kingsdoms of the world. Our Lord implies by His questionnaire that these all pass away, while the soul that has come up through contact with them is immortal, and that the person is accountable to Him for the attitude taken toward things and conditions in the world and the duty toward God our Father. Our bodies and our minds should be kept healthy and pure by our effort and the work of the Holy Spirit, so that we may feel the soul and adorn the house in which the soul dwells, so that it may be obedient to the will of God. We should endeavor to have our soul grow in the knowledge and love of God; daily, in order that we may realize not only the personal eternal value, but that we may take true and noble social values into the soul development and value of every child, person, that we come in contact with, so that all that we contact may know Him our Lord the Emmanuel from the least to the greatest. Let the Holy Spirit teach us how to radiate the value of the soul through the community, the nations the races and the world. So that we may help in spreading the truth of God and drawing in knowledge and light of the day of the love of God, when all nations shall serve our Lord God the Emmanuel, adore and praise. Him forever.

Many pupils received certificates of award and special mention for outstanding accomplishments by the congregation for maintaining a standard of excellence and efficiency of work as the requirements for promotion. More workers are needed in the Bible School. The training of the children in the knowledge of God affords an opportunity for real christian service which bears fruit through countless years. At three o'clock the Juvenile Department of the Household of Ruth held the anniversary service as a memorial of the children preached the anniversary sermon, and in his usual and appealing manner held the attention of the children as well as the grown-ups during his entire talk. The Junior Choir of the church furnished the music for this service.

But satisfactory work and encouragering as this is it is important to his work's work and achievement. The education and annual turning out of two or three students is the most useful to themselves and their families if of course the most commendable and useful what he did and sought to do. His purpose was to radiate from a center like staggered houses the homely but ever living shrubs which must form the basis of justice for his life and race.—WILLIAM HOWARD TAFT, CLEMAT JUSTICE United States Supreme Court.

Bridge Street A. M. E. Church
"Two Conceptions of the Church" was the subject of the morning discourse of the pastor, Dr. Edward E. Tyler-on-Sunday, September 27. The text was St. John 4:35, "Say not yet; There are yet four months, and then cometh harvest? behold, I say unto you, lift up your eyes and look on the fields, for they are white already. There are yet four months, among other things, that the first of the church is that of a place of worship; the second conception in the church as a place for social service. Speaking on the first conception she pastor emphasized the view that the church is a place of worship, a place for retreat, and solace of the soul; a place to secure joy and contact with Christians, after days and, sometimes, weeks of burdens, sorrows and other occurrence that go with life's vicariousness. The first conception is of faithiness, and the Christian must realize that God not only ordained the church as a temple of worship, but He also planned that it perform another service.
This brought out the other thought in the sermon, "Social Service." God intends for the church to make a continuous effort to reach men and women in all walks and all stations of life, and enlist them in the service of Christ. In doing this there is one lesson that ministers and church members must learn, that while they are seeking to save the unsaved they individuality of the person, for many individuals cause no one seeks to reach them. After reaching them we must continue to render effective Christian service.
The following joined the church: Miss Vera Walker, 1856 Dean street and Jesse Willia of 190 Thadford street.
The Sunday school met at the usual hour. It was the first meeting of the fall season, and a large number of scholars greeted the superintendent, J.D. Nixon, and his corps of teachers. The afternoon was spent in a review of the lessons of the third quarter.
The Allen Christian Endeavor League met at the regular hour. The president, Mrs. Duckett, presided, John D. Nixon gave a helpful talk on "Service". The pastor filled the pulpit again at the evening services. He spoke on The End. The text was St. Matthew 25:46. "And these shall go away into overleaving punishment; but the righteous life will." The pastor prefaced his remarks by stating that the sermon was inspired by the sudden death of several members of the church
The Stewardesses of the church won the banner that was offered at Union Bethel Church Sunday afternoon upon the church having the largest delegation of Stewardesses. The death of the church, Ida Sewall was announced on the afternoon, September 27. She lived at 257 Navy street. The funeral will be from the home.
Stewardess Wadkins and Paul Coster, who represented the church at the district conference at Huntington, L. I., last week made their report at the class meeting on Monday. A "Chicken Hunt," will be held at the church Thursday night. A committee of ladies headed by Mrs. Mamie Foy will be in charge.
Nazarene Cong. Church
Sunday, September 27, was a high day in Zion for Nazarene Church. The building was crowded in the morning, and packed at night with members and friends from all parts of Greater New York.
At the morning hour Rev. Dr. Henry Hugh Proctor began his series of sermons, "In the Footsteps of Paul from Jerusalem He spoke St. Joseph on the Martyr Jerusalem to Paul" and drew from it the value of aspiration, preparation and conviction. Next Sunday he will speak of Paul in Damascus. In these sermons he is speaking from things he has seen in his travels.
At the evening hour, Dr. S. Parker Cadman, just returned from Sweden, described the Stockholm religious conference where representatives of 400,000 Christians gathered. He brought a message of good cheer to the United States. He held that the modern conceptions of religion and science were in favor of the morality and causality of mankind.
Dr. George P. Haynes, secretary of the Commission on Tatar-religious Relations of the Federal Council of Churches in Christ, presented Dr. Cedman, the close of his address, Dr. Cadman presented Rev. Samuel Palmer of Leeds, England, who spoke on "The Value of Religious Education."
Preceding the addresses of the evening the senior chair gave an inspiring service of song. The jubilee mediations were greatly enjoyed. The Miss Artza Miller, Jersey City, J. M.; Mrs. Caleb Richmond, Chyevenn, Wynnery; and Charles H. Winters-Brooklyn, K. Y.

Robert Bragazzi, Attorney O. D. Williams and Mrs Sophie Bauer, as the Chair of the Commission. Next Sunday is Raly Day in Kearney. Commission will be administered at both services.

The Hedgeow Theatre caters to a clientele that comes from various communities in the district, covering an area of many miles in all directions, and Director Deter has developed a stock company of considerable merit which furnishes the superior for the star performers.

Cooperatively speaking, the first principle of serving best the institution that has best served them is yet to be leashed. When New York musicians have learned that as a law school is the best place to study law, rather than home, reading so is a corresponding house the proper place from which to operate under contracts rather than a personal home agency, the economic struggle of the music realm of the world's greatest city will have passed into the black darkness of a desolate yesterday. Then, henceforth, the Deacon Johnson Musicians and entertainers Exchange will have a more pleasing and more popular car to sing.

sec1 The Deacon Johnson Musicians and Entertainer Exchange, a refuge of the dignified type. As the "Tavern Inn" where musicians continuously float in and out, primarily, we find the most constant visitors to the exchange to be the notorious lot, either absolutely "out of luck" or on the verge, and making a desperate effort to avoid the issue. Likewise we find the Exchange populated by the carnet, succeeding class who launch their float on the musical air with the soul purpose of philiping to the death of the art. Comprising this group are the trustful few who soulifully believe with Alexander Smith that, "What music is to marching men,

good as a fighter singe he fought Wills. Secondly, he fought three years in the British army in the late war, was invalided home in 1917 and was never able to return to active service. Finally, the bouts New Yorkers fight in small towns are looked upon tightly in sporting circles, as exhibitions by most followers of the game. In the light of the foregoing it seems that Gibson is claiming a bit too much in asking that Tunney, who is really a light heavyweight, be rated above Harry Wills as the leading contender for the heavyweight title. His reason for wanting Tunney rated above Wills is that he hopes to claim the heavyweight title on the grounds that Dempsey has retired. It is reported that he 'would go so far as to pay Dempsey to have him remain in retirement so he can reclaim the title. There is altogether too much pull and influence used in boxing now and should the Commission permit Gibson to claim the title, the sport should
be taken into consideration:

For the Tiger team Duncan and Kitchen played a good defensive game at ends. Bailey played a hard and aggressive game. Stewart was a wounded he would find a hole or make a winger called upon to carry the ball. Tadlock, captain center, was immovable and Smith quarterback, inhibited good judgment. Steven Bell half stood out with his usual brilliance. Long pass to Smith, and his broken field running for long gain featured his work. His three fard run in the last minute of play thrilled the sidelines and the whistle in doubt prepped his march to the sidelines goal life missed three chances at goal from

Captain Williams, half-hall, was the infantryman's star player. He was able supported by Oliver, right-end.
Battle left-end; and Dawson, left-tackle. On account of the slow field the soldiers did not attempt any overhead work, but out of two passes they completed one which counted for first down. Their one attempt at a kick from placement was blocked.

In The Realm of Music
By Lucien H. White
IT IS FALSE CULTURE WHICH DECRIES SINGING OF NEGRO MUSIC BY ARTISTS
Understanding the recognition which has been given the Negro Serenade and folk song by the music world, it is a rather depressing fact that there are some among those who pose as representatives of the race's cultural development who affect to become distressed when Negro music is the first rank include Negro music on their programs.
The merit of the music which had its genesis in the creative genius of the man who lacked contact with socalled civilization until brought into world bondage, has won reverent consideration from the world's greatest masters, and it has been acclaimed as the only original music of value, which is indigenous to American soil. This is so generally avoided Negro music as to make it unnecessary to bolster the statement with argument or evidence.
And large audiences of the keenest and most critical of the music cognit of America and Europe are displaying with more and more enthusiasm as they are offered opportunity, a sophisticated appreciation of the values, melodic and harmonic, contained in the product which emanated from the once despised Negro slave.
One element which has made this appreciation possible is contained in the appreciated service rendered by such capable and learned musical annotations as the late Henry E. Krehbiel and the late Mrs. Natalie Curtis, both of whom gave earnest and loving effort to the transcribing of unknown Negro music and to giving the music world a sympathetic and standing knowledge of the beauty and glory contained in this new musical offering.
When these two distinguished characters first began their work along there were few, if any, of the race's own musicians who possessed constant musical training and knowledge to capably do this work. And those who might have been capable of doing so, lacked either inclination or a grasp. But that condition has changed, and now the preservation of the wonderful melodies and harmonies can safely be entrusted to the ability and ambition effort of men and women of the race who are fitted in every way for the work.
but, to hark back to the first paragraph, some of the members of the race can find only distressing memories of the conditions which obtained when the music was being created to accompany their unwilling hearing of its interpretation by singers of today. With a shrug of the shoulder, and the assumption of an air of supercilious superiority, they affect to find in the music only the remembrance of those days when men and women of the race were bowed in bondage and found consolation only in pouring out the sorrows and hopes in song.
Not the beauty of the created masterpiece nor the value of the finished item is considered—not the distress and travail which wring the hearts and bodies of the oppressed until relief was found in a song of sorrow or of hope. The only thought which comes to the consciousness of these modern-day super-cultured esthetics is that these songs carry to the world a message of the degradation and suffering undergone by the race through two and a half centuries of enforced servitude.
That state of bondage was not a matter of choice with the enslaved. It was a typical demonstration of the ruthlessness of the stronger in taking advantage of the weaker. The blame that attaches to that condition belongs to the sufferer, but to those who caused the suffering. And out of that suffering condition, which was physical and not spiritual, the race has risen, owing to the world, as it rises, an example of accomplishment and achievement that is unparalleled.
And the Negro music is not the least of the race's achievements. When Bred Hayes stands and sings to thousands the songs of his race, with a watchless aggregation of musicians who compose the Boston Symphony Orchestra playing upon their string and wind and percussion instruments. Simple chords and melodies of the accompaniments as a background to a wonderful voice, the one thought obtaining should compass the divine excellence of what is being heard. It is sacrilege and treachery to besmirch one's consciousness with the uncalled for thought that such a rendition will bring to any mind other than reverent awe and sympathetic appreciation.
It has been an imminent danger that many of these songs would be irretrievably lost. Nor is it possible to say that many have not already been lost, because there is no way by which one can tell what inspired singer have voice to an utterance that deserved preservation but which has been lost in the mists of the past. But the work of Krebhel and Mrs Curri-Burlin may be considered to have been the sign boards pointing the way women and women of the race and so today there are many who are defending themselves with sacred fidelity to the preservation of the Negro Spiritual and folk song.
Fisk University sent out its singers many years ago and made the world acquainted with the beauty of the Negro Spiritual, and this example is being viewed most conspicuously by Tuskegee and Hampton Institutes. But even more important than the vocal offering is the putting into permanent form, both in the simple primitive and in the sophisticated development of

harmony is passing. One must journey far in Alabama to find Negro singing which even approximates the harmony that once existed over the entire South." "This is true. And this change is marked even in the cities. It has not been so many years ago since these songs were the foundation of practically every religious service, and particularly were they in evidence during protracted meetings, or revivals, as they are called nowadays. And the singing of the congregations on these occasions has not been surpassed by the greatest of the world's oratorian societies or choral groups. But they are jobless today. The people which began with Monday & Sankey and reached an apotheosis with Hilly Sunday have taken their place.
The Birmingham story, continuing, tells of the singing of the country or farm Israelis as follows.
"Those who have never heard the real cotton patch harmony can scarcely appreciate the apprehension of music lovers that this art is about to pass. Fifty Negroes, of varied ages in one cotton field are capable of producing an impromptu program of song, chant, whistling and chatter than can be found nowhere else on the globe in the opinion of music critics who have traveled far to hear the music in its original setting.
"The song is usually one which was never written. It may or may not be one already worked out and familiar to those participating. A Negro does not have to know" a song to join with his fellow to sing it. I very farm group has a leader. This perseveres always a man. He strikes his key—and the group is off.
"The same song may be sung fifty at hour or all day. It never becomes monotonous because of its variations. The present day jazz artist boasts of his 'barber shop.' He knows nothing of 'medicals' and 'chords'
"The Negro singer can' ring in more notes than have ever been written in the staff. He sings in minor, major and unknown keys. There' no precedent for which does' he day he sings from, swing and sings it differently from that of yesterday, he will have a new song and more harmony.
"No matter what he sings and how he sings it there is that indescribable rhythm, swing and motion which' is as harmonious as the flow of a madow brook. He knows hollith' of crescendos, fortissimus, pianissimus He

Take Matter To Coolidge
Rew. Harten declared that the outrage against the colored race, would be calledled the attention of the nation at the 18th annual meeting of the League, October 7 to. 9 in the City of Baltimore, after which its representatives would lay the case between him and him, as he him why he was silent while the race was lynched and deprived of its God given rights.
Lillian Lewis Feurtrado, of Boston, a special writer on the Guardian, added her protest to the others, and said that Crispus Attucks a slave whose blood made way for the freedom of white Americans, first helped himself to his own freedom by walking away without leave from his master and joining the patrons in Boston, while Peter Salem also a Massachusetts slave, ran away from his master joined the patrons and fired the shot of the Battle of Bunker Hill that killed Major Pitcairn and turned the women of that encounter. She urged the women to race to use the ballot in race defence.
Rev. Dr. Wm. H. Rozier, pastor of Pleasant Hill Baptist Church, Los Angeles, Cal. president of California Baptist State Convention, stated that we were wrong in asking the white man for freedom when he is a slave himself to race prejudice. He urged the race to organize, to be true to God and each other to be more loyal to its racial enterprises.

Princeton Woman Saved From Workhouse Sentence
Princeton, N. J.—Late in July, Bessie Lambert, colored resident of Princeton, was sentenced by the Mayor of Princeton to ninety days in the County Workhouse for fighting on the streets with Ida McVeigh, a white woman, who was not fined or sentenced Before the colored people of Princeton could turt their hands this woman was on her way to the county farm.
An auto was dispatched to Trenton for Attorney Robert Queen, who immediately investigated the case, applied to Judge Marshall for a review of the case and asked the judge to release the woman on ball. Judge Marshall, a monkey, held his minded set ball, and Bessie Lambert was released two days later. The case came up for argument in the County Court before the same judge, who after reviewing the case, reversed his former decision, setting the concession aside.

"What Is The Status Of An Insane Negro in Georgia?"
BY JESSICA GITHAMA
A few days ago a statement appeared in the daily newspaper to the effect that an insane Werger, in the Inane Asylum at Milledgeville, VA, (Milledgeville known as the City of Milledgeville) by the name of Willie Drink (alias Slima) had attacked and killed a white Slima) by the name of Miss Amy Nurse who wickle handle. This nurse, supposed to have been passing near Dixon on an unguarded moorout, was killed and killed by Dixon it was stated; Dixon had been adjudged insane, found to be suffering from mental disorder to the extent that he was dangerous at large, both to himself and society. He was therefore put into an institution built and maintained by the taxes paid by the citizens of the State, for the custody of persons who are mentally ill. Persons who are thus afflicted in an institution of this kind are usually put in the care of guards who are supposed to control and direct very large, their conduct. It would not seem safe to put deadly weapons into the hands of insane persons.
The Grand Jury met the day following Miss Oxford's death and indicted this insane, irresponsible Negro for Murder. KEEP IN MIND THAT INSANITY IS SUSPENDED IN HAND OF OBSERVABLE TO THE EXTENT THAT HIS ACTIONS CAN NO LONGER BE CONSIDERED CRIMINAL The Jury indicted this man, already in the custody of the Insane Asylum, for murder. That was a great shock to the reading public and difficult to analyze.
We have been congratulating ourselves upon the reduction of lynching in Georgia. That is, we have been saying that the tendency to take the law into our own hands, when a crime has been committed or alleged to have been committed by a member of a certain race in his or her right mind and fully responsible for the deed committed, was on the decline.
MOB GOES THE GRAND JURY ONE BETTER On the morning of September 22, we read the following: "Willie Dixon, was taken from the insane Asylum last night and taken to Wilkinson county by a mob who chained him to a tree and beat him to death with a pick handle. The body of the Negro still chained to the tree was found early this morning."
The officers of Wilkinson county began an investigation and the coroner's Jury held an inquest and retried a verdict to the effect that the Negro met his death at the hands of parties unknown. Notwithstanding the fact that the number of the mob was given as twenty-five or thirty; their conduct in securing the Negro, to lynch him was known to the guards; they were ordered to "Keep Quet" (and they did).
He came to his death at the hands of "Parties Unknown." Every Negro in the United States knew that, because when lynchings occur at high noon in the streets of some of our large cities, "it is always at the "Hands of parties unknown".
When we think of the paradoxical position of the State it is almost amusing. The State is in a place, for the insane. This Negro was confined there in because he was insane; because he was irresponsible for his actions, then the State, represented by the Grand Jury, indicts for murder this same Negro that the State adjudged insane and irresponsible a year ago.
For twelve months, Dixon was confined in this Insane Asylum and he must have been still considered insane by the State, other wise he would have been released. Very often alleged criminals of perpetrators of crime and wrong doers, have escaped punishment by pretending insanity. Harry K. Thaw is possibly the most outstanding illustration of this kind. Such person's sanity has been questioned before the crime was committed, in other words, they are supposed to have been sane until the moment the crime was committed. In order to escape the consequence of the crime they have been able to establish the insanity alibi. This Milligeville crime is quite different from any that has ever occurred in the history of the United States so far as we know. We go and get a man who has been confined in an Insane Asylum for 12 months, who has been kept stranded, street vigil, and murder and then go and get him and lynch him. There are three things we would like to know. First, What is the status of an insane Negro in Georgia? Second, is a sane colored man, at large, safe in a state or community, where an insane colored man in an Insane Asylum is not safe? "Third is LYNCHING IN GEORGIA ON THE DEFINELINE."
Much Ado—Nothing Done
(Macon, ta. Daid) Telegraph)
The resolutions adopted by the Rotary Club condemning in strong language the lynching of the insane Negro at Milledgeville and shop Amy at Milledgeville and the adhoc resolutions find echo and response in the minds and hearts of decem Georgians. What was said at the Rotary Club reflects the sentiments of a great majority of Georgians there is hardly a man who stands for law and order and the deficiencies of human existence who would not like to see the lynchers themselves brought to justice. North Georgia georgians who will delude himself into believing that any member of the mob ever will be brought to trial. Precedent and history are against any such belief. Georgians may have, sometime in that past that is no distant that it is beyond the horizon and ken of living men, punished some bodies for lynching, but a searchine that is beyond the horizon and command that it seize about itreatable case where lynchers were punished, fails to bring forth a single instance. We of Bibb County cannot be vain.

Hundreds Of Dispossess Cases Are Tried In 7th District Court Non-Employment and Death Given As Causes For Not Paying Rent
---
There were more than otho hundred disposes cases called in the Seventh District Court in West 135th street between 8th and 9th, St. Nicholas avenues. Every seat in the court room was filled and the ales and fear of the court room were crowded with men and women who stood until seats, were vacated by landlords and tenants whose cases were tried first.
The smallest amount of rent for which disposes papers were served fell to a man who owed $18 for half a month. He was holding out on the landlord for repairs to a ceiling in his house. The largest sum was $320 owed by an elderly woman. She was instructed by the Judge to deposit that amount with the clerk of the court and appear again for trial on October 9.
One woman, a St. Nicholas avenue tenant, was tried on complaint of the landlord. The judge paused in his proceedings and addresser her in the words "Listen. You have become a regular of several cases the she had appeared in court and the court found $3 cost of court and granted $5 days to pay the rent.
One man exhibited a check for $100 which he said the lardlord had refused because he was paying the lowest rent in the house and the landlord wanted him out of the house. He was granted a jury trial on October 9.
St. Phillips' Church was represented as landlord against a tenant in 135th street. Practically empty street and avenue in upper Harlem was represented.
Some of the tenant's excuses for not paying rent were that the landlords refused to make necessary repairs. One had a door that was off the hinge; another had falling plaster; and another comprised of a gaphage connance. The judge told them that it was not in his power to order repairs an; instructed them to report such complaints to the Tenement House Department.
One woman stated that he had been out of work for some time. Another woman stated that she had death in her family and had used her rent money for funeral expenses. She had been a tenant in the building for 7 years and that her first dispossess notice. A number of cases were reported settled out of court. Many were dismissed on non-appearance of landlords. One of the cases dismissed was against a tenant named Moonshine who lived on Amsterdam avenue. Among cases that were not settled, some tenants paid the landlords in the court room, while others deposited the money due for rent with the court's clerk.
Expansion Of "Y" Work Among Colored People By National Council
Expansion Of "Y" Work Among Colored People By National Council
In keeping with the rapid increase in colored population throughout the United States, and the advance made by Negroes in business and industry, the problem of expansion into fields heretofore untouched by the Young Men's Christian Association, is uppermost, at this time, in the minds of its 32,000 colored members. Officials of the Colored Work Department of the National Council, New York City, declare that "the response of the colored people to the program of the Y. M. G. A and the tremendous need of such service encourages the leadership to plan for unprecedented campaigns of expansion." In two fields notably the Negro association finds its greatest opportunity for development in the interest of character-building among men and boys
These fields are the small towns and rural areas of the South and the huge metropolitan areas of the North, where congestion is constantly on the increase. The single Y. M. C. A., in Harlem in New York City, which is the most concentrated Negro area in the United States, if not in the world, for example, finds its facilities taxed at the lowest to care for the needs of the 200,000 resident of the district. A smaller problem confronts the Chicago association, while in St. Louis plans are already under way for the construction of a second building.
"The Y-M-C A next to the church is the largest contribution to the character development of the colored man Tobias senior secretary of the Colored Work of the National Council, "is making the largest contribution to the character development of the colored man and boy in America. Our membership has increased more than 4,000 since last
glorious about our own record. We made a great hullaballoon in the name of law and order when two Negroes were lynched in this county; grand juries sat in solemn session and in one instance returned indictments. What has become of them? They have gone the way of shrogten things. The reports that come out of Mullidgeville and Atlanta in the present case are not encouraging. The Government has offered a stereotyped reward the sheriff who is working on the case says there are no clues as to the identity of the murderer, the solicitor general of the district shows no undue activity. The sentiment will subside, activity subside, the case pass into history—just one more lynching.
For the first time an authentic history of the lives and achievements of America's foremost Negroes has been written by ROSCOE CONKLING BRUCE, the well known author, and will appear in this work together with an interesting collection of photographs of EDUCATIONAL INSTITUTIONS AND INDIVIDUALS.

year, new buildings in a joint effort of nearly 660,000 have been added to our equipment, and more than two million of millions of boys have been through our activities, but we all feel that we have hardly scratched the surface of our possibilities when we think of the hundreds of thousands ofcolored men and boys in the rural transportation service and other industries, to whom the helpful services of the Y. M. C. A. might be extended." Compensation between the figures of the Negro Year Book and the Y. M. C. A. Year Book for 1925-26 shows that while there were 566,680 Negroes in industry in 1920, there are now eight Negro industrial associations serving about two-score plants and 626 members.
Even greater opportunity for expansion exists in the fields of transportation and agriculture.
In agriculture, which engaged the attention of 2,178,888 Negroes in 1920, there are two associations conducting community service, both operating without building facilities. One of these is in Mercer County, New Jersey, the other a department for boys on Long Island.
One Railroad Y. M. C. A. for colored men is maintained, and that at Bluetfield, W. Va., although in numerous cities accommodations are provided by the Association for Pullman porters. The Negro Year Book shows that in 1920 more than 200 Negroes were serving locomotive firemen, and 111 as locomotive engineers.
The question of expansion is expected to occupy a leading position in discussions of the Twenty-first National Conference on Colored Work to be held October 21 to 23 at Washington, D. C., where the first colored-Y. M. C. A. was established seventy-two years ago.
Prominent at the conference will be Dr. John R. Mott, general secretary of the Nationality Council and the International Committee of the American Y. M. C. As; S. Wirt Wiley, associate general secretary; Dr. John Hope, president of Morehouse College at Atlanta, Ga., colored member of the General Board, and generally regarded as one of the leading Negro educators in the United States, and Dr. R. R. Moton, chairman of the Colored, department Committee of the National Council, and the successor of Booker Washington as chairman of Tuskegee Institute. Several leaders of the Young Women's Christian Association also have been invited to attend for the purpose of discussing with the men the prospects of joint use of equipment in the smaller fields.

Says Officers Should Take Extreme Measures, And Offers State Troops
Jackson, Miss.—"The time has come when the law, abiding Christian people in Mississippi should assert themselves in no uncertain terms against such-mov action and should rally to the support of peace officers in maintaining the integrity of the law," said Governor Whitney. When the state statement issued the day following the bynching of J. P. lvy at New Albany, Officers charged with the responsibility of protecting criminals should resort to extreme measures in thwarting a mob, continued the Governor. "Had we not done so, the crime he would have given ample support to the sheriff in the prevention of so horrible a crime against the" law. I amnt every peace officer in the State of Mississippi to know that as long as I am not in the sheriff's possible help will be extended to them in the enforcement of the law. I shall not hesitate to send out the militia to vindicate the laws of the State and see that these laws are executed. I hope to perform their duties in the case under, discussion, as well as in like cases that have occurred or may occur in the State."
Under Mississippi law the Governor is powerless to interfere in a local situation unless state aid is asked for by the county authorities, nor has it any power to inflict penalties on county officers who fall in their duty.
